senntor sherman,s speech.

Senator John Sherman opened the Ohio
campaign yesterday on the part of the
Republicans at a mass meeting in Nor
row county, with a bloody-shirt speech
of rather mild kind. 1t is true that he
said that he hoped ''the animcsites OF the
war would pass away and be dead and
buried but at the same time he declared
that "while we waive the animosities OF
the war, we must never fail to hold on,
with courage and fortitude, to all the re-
suits OF the war. Sometimes | fear that
our moderation is verging on Indifference,
that while our minds are distracted by
local politics, the old doctrines are being
revived again"
Two things appeared to weigh heavily
on Mr.. Sherman's mind. One was that
the Republican party had lost control OF
the government because dfsgruntied Re
publicans In three States had opposed the
party. The other was that the present
administration had appointed to import
ant Offices at home and abroad some of
those who were on the side Of the COnfed-
eracy in the civil war.
Mr.. Sherman still entertains the idea
that there is neither freedom of thought
nor fair elections in the South. Speak
ing Of the men who hold the local and
State offices in the Southern States, he
said: "No man who acquiesces in the re-
suits Of the war, who honOrably demands
a fair ballot and fair count can be
appointed 20 Office in the South"
Mr.. Sherman may believe what he saws.
1t is not too much to say, however, that
the demand for a fair ballot and fair
count is as strong at the South as it is at
the North, and that the demand is more
strictly complied with at the South There
may be localities, like COpiah county,
Miss, for instance, where strong political
excitement may be productive of an un-
desirable condition of affairs, but those
localities are few and small.
There are no such exhibitions Of
ballot box stufing and intimidation
IS were witnessed in the city of
Cincinnati at last falps elections,
when hundreds of deputy United States
marshals paraded the streets armed with
revolvers. II is In the Northern cities
where the fine work in the way of ballot
box stutfing is done, and Mr.. Sherman
would do well to deliver a speech in Gin
cinnati condemning the offenses of his
party against a tree ballot and fair count
In that city.

President Warren, of Boston Univer-
sity, is one Of the latest smart Alexis to
have something to say about the negro
question. He says: 1.-THE apparent gain
in numbers Of the black race over the
South is largely due to the fact that the
white is credited by the census simply
with his own white offspring, while the
negro is credited with his own proper de-
soendants, and as well with all the in
crease Of the entire mixed population Of
the country, and over and above this
with all the children Of white men by
negro or mixed mothers, and with all the
children Of white women by negro or
mixed fathers" This shows that Presi-
dent Warren doesn't know what he is
writing about. The census has always
put down the classes alluded to, now very
small in proportion to population, as col
Ored. The apparent gain OF negroes is
due almost wholly to the fact of the cen
sus takers OF 1880 doing their work more
thoroughly than those OF 1870.

The Sultan's COnjuror- . rdinary.
Etn,,. RaIlla La


A Frenchmap who follows the profession of
q conJuror was in COnstautinople, and was
about to give public exhibition of his skill
to the unspeakable Turk, hoping, doubtless,
that while he demonstrated to the audience
that a ive-franc piece might be made to dis
appear IN mysterious and uneX plaindbe
manner from under an egg cup, and live
pigeon might be transferred from an inverted
turban to the inside of lamp suspended IN
mid air, he might at the same time prove to
himself IN pleasant and profitable way that
Turkish small change could be transferred
from the pockets Of baggy Turkish trousers to
the interior OF a French cash h9X. But the
authorities interfered with this little arrange
ment. and forbade the exhibition on the
ground that the coniuror had. at some previ-
GUS period, been implicated in conspiracy
against the state. With visions of The bow
string trick and the bastinadO performance
before his eyes, the Frenchmsn fled to his
Consul. the Consul consulted he Sultan. and
the sultan ordered the cOnjuror to perform in
his presence.
Turkish Sultans are somewhat 6IG8s in dis
position, and easier 10 bore than TO please bus
the frenchman's star was now in the ascend
ant, and his skill gave such satisfaction to the
Imperial Highness that an order was at once
sued that bygones should be bygOnes, and
the artist should be allowed to exhibit his
talents before the public as often as the public
chOse to see HIM This, however, was not all.
The sultan has since appointed the lucky
Frenchman Conjuror-In- Ordinary to the
court, and also presented him with fl50

A COFFEE DRUNKARD.
The BriRht-eyed Man Who Has For
saken Rum for a Worse Stimulant.

sak0n Rum Tor n Worse Stim ulAnI.
From the PAiEddeEDhig Times.
"Whst a bright-eyed man" said a reporter
who leaned against the cashiers desk of res
taursnt rear the public buildings, one day
last week. The man in question had just paid
a l0c. check ana slipped out Of the door with
jerky movement and a swinging Of the cane
he carried which decidedly endangered the
peoples peace.
"Bright-eyed? Yes" said the cashier; 'he's
a coffee drunkard"
whats a coffee drunkard?"
"a man who comes in here four times IN
two hours, as that man has this morning and
does every morning, and takes half pint Of
coffee every time, is coffee drunkard. Bright
eyes! Wen, l should say SO. That mans
condition all the time is the same a. that of
man who is getting over big batter
mean his nerves are up in g. his muscles are
all culver. and his mental vision is abnor-
mally clear. He is living at 2:0S3z rate"
"Why does he do it2"
Has to. Must have brace. Used to drink
rum. Had to quit that, and now does worse.
He never sleeps, he tells me-"

A burly negro boldly pleaded in New

arralgned for larceny. that he was a
kleptOmaniac. He will in consequence
be sent to the asylum for kleptomaniacs

rapidly increasing among the city

A Very FalthfnI Father.


Prosecuting Attorney Cham berlain fed
during the winter four quail which became
quite tame. There were three male and one
female in the family. When spring came the
male birds fought until two were killed. The
surviving male and female mated, The fe-
male lid sixteen eggs, but declined TO sit.
Then the cock undertook TO brood the eggs,
but as often as he left the nest the hen would
roll the eggs out. and in the operation, often
repeated six eggs were broken. Every time
the male found some OF the eggs displaced ON
his return to the nest he rolled them back
where they belonged. His excited actions
showed that this tampering with his charge
distressed and angered him. The displace-
ment by the female and restoration by the
male OF the eggs went on for about a week.
Then the female brd suddenly and mystic
riously disappeared What became OF her is
not known, bat Mr.. Cham berlsin strongly
suspects that the male bird. wrought up to a
violent fit of rage by her Obstructive and I'M
wifely tactics, set upon her and killed her.
After she disappeared his task of incubation
met with no further obstac les, and a few days
ago infant quail emerged from six of the ten
eggs that remained TO him. Those which did
not hatch PROBABLY became added from the
rough wey they were treated by the female.
The father is very proud of his young brood,
ana treats them with trae maternal affee-
ton, and the most devoted regards for their
physical needs and general comfort.
