From ne Boston Herold IT,,d-l


The Sun thinks ''it will not hurt the Demo-
cratic party in New York, New Jersey, Con-
necticut, OHIO or Indiana to let the tarff
alone" Itdid not hurt the Democratic party
IN any OF these States in 1854 for il carried
all but one of them-to pledge itself to revise
the tariff, and to have its Presidential candi-
date 60 to New Jersey, and. in the only speech
ne made, recognize and enforce their pledge.
A party ought to be hurt, and will be. for
negecting TO relieve the people Of burden
some taxes in violation of its promises.

ally successful pugilist. He is hunted
almost to death by persons who desire
either to do him honor or to crafty their
curiosity. Poor Sullivan suffers most of
all from this. Wherever he goes crowd
follows him and points at him, and men
push each other against him
and keep him shaking hands. If he stops
on the street crowd surrounds him and
stares in his face in gaping curiosity till
it's wonder the man doesn't lose his rea-
son. Ed Hanlan, the rover, is another VIC
tim of public curiosity, and all the noted
athletes suffer more or less. / find that

Ten years ago on the Both of June next
"Phil," bootblack well known about
Washington Market, was murdered in
front cf Harry Winters saloon, at 203
Washington street, by young rowdy
known as "Rocks" in that neighborhood.
The murderer escaped, and nothing was
ever heard of him until few weeks ago,
when Capt. Berghold, of the Twenty sew
enth precinct, received information which
suggested that he might now be in state
prison on charge of robbery. Superin-
tendent Murray orderedan investigation,
which is still unfinished AS "Rocks" was
only Is at the time of the murder. the
changes of ten years naturally make it
difficult to positively identify him without
following up his career since that time.
The murder was an unusually brutal deed.
HPhil," who was so nicknamed because he
came from Philadelphia (his real name
was said to be James O'Brien, though the
police found him registered in the news
boys lodging house as Michael Dolan) was
blacking boots in front of the saloon when
Crooks" took a position in front of him
and kept calling him insulting names un-
til the bootblack lost patience and rushed
at him. There was fight, and by ISLANDERS
pulled them apart. AS they let go of
'Rocks" he sprang upon the defenseless
bootblack and drove a knife into his
heart. The autopsy showed that it was
cut almost in two.
The real name of Crooks" was either
bowling or Madden. If the police infor-
nation is correct, he did not flee the city,
but after hiding until the first excitement
abated. joined the "Hook" gang in the
seventh ward, and after long career of
crime got into Sing Sing for theft, under
the name of Nolan. He was transferred
to Clinton Prison and his term will be out
within year. Meanwhile the hunt for
evidence will be prosecuted leisurely.

William Jesse Swain is amply able to
take care of himself in tilt with
Lawrence Sullivan Ross.
Taken as whole the speech delivered
by Gen. Ross at Sulphur Springs on Sat
urday last was a far weaker production
than the Post expected it would be. The
speech, like his interview announcing his
candidacy some weeks ago, was carefully
prepared, being written and sent out to
the press in advance. Having had the
benefit of the various criticisms upon his
former production, as well as further
time for reflection and elaboration, il was
reasonable expectation that his Sulphur
Spings effort would be an improvement
upon the interview. In this he sadly dis
appointed bis friends. Aside from plati-
tudes upon the subject of constitutional
government, which, doubtlesss every man
in his audience had heard hundreds of
times before, there was very little in it.
He attacked SWANS record on several
questions of public Importance, but with
feebleness easily apparent TO those who
heard him or read his speech as published.

Washington Letter: The Russian
Minister, M. de Struve, who returned
after almost ayear's absence onleave,
had an enthusiastic welcome from the
large circle ofhis colleagues and friends,
and brought pleasant news OF hisfami-
ly. Mime. de Struve and her children
will not come to Washington until
early next fall. The De Strives were
such prime favorites here that their alb.
sence this winter has been continually
regretted and the closing OF the Rus-
sian Legation positively mourned-
They were delightful hosts, and Nine.
de Struve WAS more OF q social auto
crat than any one else here. Her in
vitations were most sought and APP
preciated and her disapproval most
dreaded. When she took any one up
society espoused that cause with
rush, and when she recalled cards OF
invitation from an offending one the
town dropped the unfortunate at
once. She is a. woman of most won
derful ability, and she led life OF such
activity as would appall any other
woman. Her cleverness, her wit, brill
fancy, tact, and kindliness were cele-
brated everywhere, yet, with the rush
of her social duties, she was the most
devoted mother to her seven children
and held up as model parent for all
the fashionable mothers to follow.
Nine. de Struve had one invarlaole
rule as to declining ladies' lunch par
ties, and she was never trapped into
one of those tedious female feasts.
That meal, midday dejeuner, she
claimed as family right and rite, and
the informal breakfasts at the lega-
ton, with the seven little De Strives
all at the table, were most valued by
those favored with invitations to
them. Her return will be hailed with
Joy next fall, and society is already
taking heart and counting on q brill
liant season next winter. Mr.. Blaine
used emphaticalIy to declare Mime. de
Struve to be the cleverest woman IN
Washington, to the chagrin OF one
we'll known woman in particular who
had always supposed that she occu-
pied that unique position in this COM

FROM Uuo LCUTOlb II rec TTebS.
The hearts OF many parents have
been saddened by having their children
obstinately refuse to "show of" their
mental attainments in the presence of
visitors. 1t is always a parental de-
fusion that this display OF Johnnie's
or Sally's accomplishments cannot
but be a source of infinite JOY to all be-
holders, whereas the victimized visitor
is simply enduring in enforced silence
the torture forced upon him. Jenkins,
q friend of mine, has son three years
old, supposed by the Jenkins family
to be an infant prodigy, future Pres.
ident, and all that. The friends ofthe
Jenkins family have different senti.
ments, which / will not here expose be-
cause Of Hly regard for jenkins. L
called at Jenkins house the other
evening when the phenomenon of the
family was fairly overfowing with
smartness. He came into the room
with whoop and yell combined
with q hop-step-and-iump movement
that plunged him headlong into my
lap, where he lay burrowing his head
into my stomach and screaming fran
tically.
There, there" said Mrs. Jenkins,
"you didn't hurt yourself much, |
guess. Stop crying and speak your
new piece for the gentleman"
81 won't!"
"Why, Johnnie, is that the way to
talk to mammal"
"Y-a-asl"
'No, it isn't. If you'll speak your
piece pll give you some candy"
II want it first"
"No, dear; speak your piece first"
II shan't!'
The gentleman wants to see you"
The gentleman" didn't want any
thing of the Kind, but he said he did,
and Johnnie finally condescended to
stand up in a corner, give his head q
jerk and begin:
''Terwinkle, terwinkle, little star.
How l wonder what you are,
Up above the
Here Johnnie suddenly breaks off
and goes racing and tearing around
the room upsetting chairs, snatching
at tablecloths and shouting like g.
young Indian.
Don't" says Mrs. Jenkins; "that
isn't half of your piece"
"It's all I'm going to say" and the
mad race is resumed.
"Johnniel Johnniel" interposes Jen-
kins, Sr.
The infant Jenkins is now standing
on his head in corner kicking out his
heels and laughing. This interesting
pastime is soon abandoned for the
more exhilarating one of prancing
around the room on his hands and
feet and initiating the "woof, woof"
of bear.
You're too noisy" says Mrs.
Jenkins.
"Ain'tl' briefly retorted Johnnie.
"You are," said Jenkins. Sr.
"I a-a-a-n't" shrieks Johnnie.
"You John, Henry Jenkins!"
Ire is in the fathers face and voice,
but Johnnie doesn't care for his ire or
anything else.
The result is sort of pitched battle
in which the combined forces of Pa
and Ma Jenkins are sufficient to drag
Johnnie out by the heels. His mother
returns red and mortified
