KENNA,s CAMPAIGN BOOK.

S'TO the Victors Belong the Spoils," or Why
a Rich Democrat Did Not Subscribe.
Washington Special to Courier-J Journal.
There is not so much good cheer at the ma
tional Democratic congressional campaign head
quarters as there was. Before the campaign
book was published nearly all the chiefs of bu-
resus in the departments promised to subscribe
for dozen or more copies each, and the commit
tee fully expected to sell at least 900 copies in
the District Since the publication Of the work,
however, the promises to buy have not realized
worth a cent The actual fact Is that up to last
night but eleven of the books had been sold in
Washington. What is troubling the committee
now is how they going to raise the money to
pay for the publication of the book and the sala-
fies of the clerks employed in sending out Demo
cratic literature. While the book was being
edited a prominent Democrat proposed to
pay 81, 900 for the privilege of one page in the
book. He was asked what he desired TO write.
He said: II only want to write line to be
printed on one page 1t shall be good Demo.

accepted and the next day the gentleman pre-
sented a certified check on Riggs g. Co.'S bank
for 81, 900 and slip of paper upon which was
written In bold hand:

The member of the committee looked at

hitch team to o wagon of cabbage which they
were to bring TO this city. AS they approached
the stables four masked men sprang out from
place of concealment and presented revolv-
ers at their heads, at she same time
cautioning them to make no resistance. The
robbers then ordered them to reveal the hiding
place of their money, and the frightened victims
did so. The robbers, after gagging them, led
them back to the house. On entering, Bluff was
taken to bureau in one of the rooms, whore he
had hidden $85. This the robbers took and
then proceeded with Patmeyer to the
latter's room, where they secured $35.
They then left the house, after warning
Bluff and Patmeyer not to attempt
to pursue them, as they would be killed. The
latter were too badly frightened to do anything,
and the masked thieves escaped Bluff wentim-
mediately to Belleville. H., where he informed
the authorities of the ROBBERY. The description
which he gave of the robbers tallies exactly with
that given by Mr.. Furber of the men who re-
lieved him, about month ago. of $500 in almost
the same manner It is thought that both
crimes were committed by the same men.

Specials to the Indianapolis Journal.
PRINCETON, Sept 16 The thirty-second an

Horticultural Society began Monday with
excellent prospects, and up to last night the dis
plays in the various departments exceeded those
of all former years, and all the entries are not
yet made The fair has justly gained the repu-
taton. of being the best in the southern part of
the State, and the week this year promises to be
a successful one in every particular. A number
of fast horses from different parts of the State
have been entered for the races while the show
of fine stock in all the departments is said by
competent judges to be the best ever seen at a
county fair The large display of farm products
fully sustain the reputation of the fine farms
that comprise the county.

been at much expense and trouble to build up
the Vigo fairs. The revenue from beer and
