A. i. Elder, who has persuaded Miss Rose
Elizabeth Cleveland 10 take entire charge of
the editorial department of Literary Life, of
Chicago, says that he has been in correspond
ence with Miss Cleveland concerning this
matter Tor some time, and that, while she
has felt much interest in the field of labor
proposed, various things have held her back
from entering upon it until now. Mr. Elder
visited Miss Cleveland at her home at hol-
land Patent on Thursday and at the begin
ming OF the interview she said she
would have TO decline his offer
Alter negotiations extending over a
day and half Miss Cleveland agreed to
assume the exclusive editorial control
OF the magazine, 1t being distinctly under
stood that no attempt would be made to
make capital Of her former prestige. Mr.
Elder also becomes for the future the ex-
elusive publisher of all books and other
literary matter that Miss Cleveland NAV
write. 1t Is understood that Miss Cleveland
will live here more or less, but she will leave
Chicago in the fall and spend tho Winter
on the Riyiere or in the South. There

LOGAN has accomplished ali advertising
doGG5 that VII. rankle in the enyious bosom
of Mr.. Blaine. In the discussion of the bill
for the relief of Porter he asserted that the
general had been in league with the Southern
leaders, and to prove it he had the clerk read
extracts from his book, "The Great Con-
spiracy," bearing on the case, but OF no
greater weight than his expressed opinion.
or course all these proceedings were printed
in the Congressional Record and may be
used to show the historical value Of book
worthy of quotation in the Senate OF the
United States. Soon we will hear of another
speech from the man in Maine melting
sectional hostility ON war issues, and refer
ring to his own "historiss" by way OF contir
nation; but if Mr. Blaine has not his old
acuteness in feeling the political pulse he
will attempt to bolster his desperate cause
with some issue that is not dead and buried
and as desperate cases require desperate
remedies we may expect to hear some vio-
lent talk against rum, Romanism or rebellion.
Verify these two gentlemen with their
rivslries in literature and politics form
most amusing tableau in the background OF
the political situation, while in front stands a
portly gentleman with barred arms uplifting
the veto axe and the underground of vicious
legislation cleared from around him.

IN the national military museum in New
York there hangs a sword and scahhard with
a curious history. Tothe scabhard is attached
a primitive belt and slings of half inch rope,
while the weapon bears evidence of hard ser
vice and the insignia L. :. navy in relief upon
its mountngs
1t belonged to Ouray, the famous chief of
the Ute Indians and born ruler of men who
fulfilled Cooper's ideal of a savage chief dis
pensng rude but wholesome justice with
this sword as his sceptre and symbol of au
thority. The grim old chief also filed the
post of executioner and several times sup
pressed rebellion by telling the leader of it
with blow of this old sword, welded with
the skill and vigor of Douglas.
He drew salary of $1,000 annually for
keeping his people in order and in his latter
years lived like an ancient patriarch, with his
flocks and herds and Mexican servants, Il car

Colorado and a house full OF modern furni-

a Good EAAhInn Growing

alt is gratifying =" says the New York
FrccmaH'S journal, " to note that the good
fashion of making the commencement of
girls rattolic schools as private as possible
finds many followers this year. II is very easy
for a school commencement to become mere
ly an opportunity for the qualification OF the
vanity of young people and foolish parents.
4 public exhibition OF fine gowns, graceful
courtesies, and musical proficiency can do
no good to any school in the minds of the
people who are the most constant and re-
liable patrons of schools. An American boy
seems to be deprived OF his birthright if he
does not get a chance to 'orate' on CON-
mencement, day over the heads of hot and
sleepy throng; but the American girl ought
not TO be encouraged to indulge public
spread Gag leism.' ;"

LIEUTESANT /ALINsKI has been success
fully demonstrating that shells filled with
high explosives in large quantities can be as
safely thrown from the pneumatic tube as
shells filled with gunpOwder. In one expert
ment ten empty projectiles were thrown
from the air gun distance of a mile, strik-
ing the water in an average OF nine seconds
after the command to fire, and with an en-
couraging degree of accuracy in range. The
pressure was 1000 pounds 10 the square inch,
and it is said that this can be doubled. This
successful use Of dynamite with compressed

THE Harrisburg Patriot may very we'll
pronounce as "bogus" the reported inter-
views with Mr.. Hensel, chairman of the
Democratic state committee, ain regard to
the coming Democratic candidate of COVER
nor" and on various other subjects about
which he isquoted. The helNTELLIGENoER has
become so accustomed to seeing Mr.. Hensel
reported where he was not, on business that
he never before heard OF, interesting himself
about matters that he never interfered with
and cherishing designs he never contem-
plated, that this journal has given up the
hopeless effort of keeping track of all these
stories or publishing their contradiction.
The chief matter for regret is that some OF the
newspapers and politicians whose duty, like
Mr. HensePs, is "to promote and perfect the
organization Of the Democratic party, " are
the readiest to invent and circulate the lies
which distract and disturb it.

THE Spanish premier, Sagasta, has created
a sensation in the Corte2 by his asser-
ton that il he ever found Majority OF
that body in favor Of the establishment of a
Spanish republic, he would submit the ques-
ton TO the people for decision, but concluded
by protesting his loyalty to the Monarch cal
party. The truth is that part OF the Spanish
people are fully capable of self government
and anxious for it, but very large ma iority
are utterly incapable OF exercising the rights
of citizenship. In the interior Of the penin.
sula, where railroads are unknown and the
peasants live in primitive simplicity, it is far
more barbarous now than when the MOOrs
were holding it against the Spanish chivaIry
and fostering the art and science that all
ChrIstendom had neglected for centuries.
Until the peasantry OF Spain have been lifted
from the groove they have been running in
and the education OF the masses enables them
to read the daily news-in short until the
newspaper becomes necessary to them, they
will not be able to govern themselves. Thi,
the willy premier has discerned and know
ing we'll that a dose of medicine that is no
needed will make the patient sick, and sicl
of that medicine, he hopes by giving 1t t,
