One OF the features of Tuesday,s-
proceedings in the senate was the
introduction Of bill by Senator
Vance, of North Carolina, providing
for the repeal of the civil service law,
and all additions and notifications
that may have been made to the or
iginal bill Senator Vance SAYS he
introduced his bill in good faith, and
at the proper time he will deliver a,
speech in explanation of il. He does
not expect it to receive many votes
in the senate, but from private con
VIBRATIONS he has had with members
of that body, be believes there il
majority who would Ike to see the
law repealed, yet they have not the
courage to face public sentiment and
vote as they feel He says the civil
service system is q farce and sham,
which the rank and Ale of the demo-
cratic party do not understand, nor
do they have any faith init. During
the last presidential campaign the
democratic stump speakers started
out to talk to the people about the
tariff. An order was sent ont from
headquarters to drop the tariff ones
ton and let the battle-cry be sTurn

he went down into his own State and
informed his people that they would
come up and vote for Grover Glove
land and honest government the ras-
calls would be turned out and honest
democrats appointed to ell their
places The people came out and
voted as they were instructed, but
now, when they come forward and
ask why the rascals have not been
turned out, they are informed that q
mistake has been made, as it is now
discovered that there are no rascals
in office, and the campaign cry was
simply gotten up TO deceiUe tie peo-
pie. In the weak and sickly plat

promised that the tariff would be re-
formed There will be no reform of
the tariff during this congress- he
added very emphatically. "Then we
were told that the rascals would be
turned out, and even that promise

A shocking and fatal accident oc-
Cured at the Princess iron furnace,
in Botetourt county, Va, few days
ago. A colored man named Felix
Richardson, standing at the foot of
the elevator which carries stock to
the top Of the stack, sixty feet high,
stuck his head between two cross
beams to give message to the fore
man within just as the descending
elevator reached that point. The
heavy cage caught his head, crushing
his skull and breaking his neck. The
obstruction stopping the elevator,
the man below looked up and was
Mortified to see the negro's mangled
head and starting eyes just above
him. He gave the signal to raise
the elevator, when, without having
uttered a sound, the poor man drop
ped back dead.

dent, suspecting this man from his
looks, slyly took away the pin from
its hiding place. On the return to
the platform the thought reader gaz-
ed in the hider's face, and, putting his
hand to his brow, was blindfolded
and led the student to the hiding
place, but of course could find no

confederate. IN ow, gentlemen
said the student, "I'll undertake to
say that if this 'diviner of the human
mind win do as / tell him half the
audience. without single hint from
me, viii know where the pin is,' and,
turning to the though-reader, he
said, "Sit down" He did SO,
There was yell, and jumping up
the thought reader hastily pulled
from the seat of his trousers the
