1t is seldom We are called upon to
chronicle so sad an event as that which
occurred aboard the 0sceola, on the Oc-

on its regular run, coming to this city,

engaged in various ways to while the
time away. Seyeial were seated on the
forward deck as the steamer was passing
through what is known as Eureka creek.
At this place there is sharp curve in
the current of the stream, and immedi-
ate.y on this point there stands large
maple tree. which has served for years
to turn the boats into the proper channel,
by 'cushioning agains, the guards. On
this occasion the boat was run against
the tree as usual, but with only slight
jar. however, the blow was Of sufficient
force to dislodge a dead limb in the tree,
which fell, striking the ladder leading
from the promenade deck to the pilo:
house, breaking, and one end of the fall.

age.

lm alo Times.
l. esident Cleveland's good luck does
not desert him. He is rising triumph.
an,y above the Senate. The fierce par
tisan battle which that body is waging
against the Administration has rallied
the Democracy around the President
Tho contest came as a blessing in dis.
guisc to Mr.. Cleveland and the whole
Democratic party. The President and
the party have not had the best under.
standing since his inauguration. He has
been slow in meeting the demands of his
political adhercnts.
The effect Of the Senate's attack upon
President Cleveland has been to harmo.
nize the differences existing in the Dem.
ocratic ranks. II has brought the Pres.
ijent aud his party closer together, and
the final result will be to place the De.
mocracy in proper condition for the
great campaign of 1888.
