Buckwheat Cakes at n Paris Hotel
Unfortunately, the desire Of the Frenchman

venture of our own one summer four or five
years ago. We were at IA hotel kept by a
former head waiter at DelmOuICO'S, who was
deliberately anxious to satisfy the American
palate. 1t was in August and he gave us
green corn on the cob which We ate at once
with relish and to the abiding amazement of
an English party Mt the next table He asked
us If we would like corn bread or buCkwheat
cakes and the next DAY at breakfast he came
up smiling and told US he had ordered buck
wheat cakes to be made for our luncheon. He
had imported his griddle and his buckwheat
and his maple syrup; it was pity that he
had not also imported some one to mix the
batter and To bake the cakes, for when the
brown disks were placed before us, smoking
hot, we saw at once that all WAS not as it
should he Something was wrong and we

Ohio republicans have raised universal yell
over frauds At the ballot box, have named the

published thousand times the figures changed

Jury foI the crime. They have shown lots of
pluck in exposing the crimes by words, but
have accomplished nothing in the way of pun
ishing the criminals. IL Ohio republicans are
under the heels of boodlers they are to blame
for IL. and instead Of making faces at United
states senators and calling them names. they
should show their earnestness by indicting
and cOnyicting some of the criminals them
selves.
This is not wholly true or quite fair. We
have some fraud rascals in the penitentiary

since the amount remaining of the Geneva award
is not sufficient to pay them in full. There are
over 8, 900 of the jud gments, and tho percentage

Mr.. Gladstone has indirectly advised Parnel
against pursuing an obstructive policy in the
coming Parliament since. in 1880, the tactics
pursued by the Irish member did much to throw
discredit upon the Irish cause. Mr.. Gladstone
hoped the Parneilites would not revert to the
methods practiced during that session. Mr. Par
nell has replied that he is DESTROYS of following
Gladstone's leadership reserving entire liberty
of action in event of the Tories trying coercion.
Sir Michael Hicks Beach and other members OF
the late Tory Cabinet will oppose admission of
the Duke of Argyll and Goschen into the new
Cabinet and urge that the Duke of Abercorn be
appointed Viceroy of Ireland.
The Times urges that it Is an indispensable nee
essity that the strongest and most capable states
man in the Irish party be chosen to administer
Irish affairs Another important change" the
Times says. (which is absolutely necessary, is
the transfer of Mr.. Hamilton, Under Secretary at
Dublin Castle, who Is the driving wheel of the
administration, to some other Office. He is
man of remarkable ability, but it is idle to dis
guise the fact that he has gravey compromised his
position permanent official by his close con-
nection with Mr. Gladstones Irish policy, of
which. indeed. he is believed to be. in some
sense, the author"
Mr. Gladstone, replying to-day to inquiries
as to which were the best books to read on
the historical side of the Irish question, said
at present there was great lack of any com
plete works. He recommends Goodwin Smiths
article on Pitt, in his English Statesmen also,
Lockys LEADERS of Public Opinion in Ireland
and the History of England in the Eighteenth
Century" also. many portions of Froude's EN-
glish in Ireland in the Eighteenth Century"
Lord Concurry's personal recollections of his
lifetime, with extracts from his correspondence,
but, above ALL Burke especially his writings on
America as applicable to Ireland. AS regards re-
cent history of the land question, Mr. Gladstone
recommends perusal of Barry OBrien's article
in the Nineteenth Century.

BEEcHEn,s SON.

Worried by His Rejection by the Senate
Why He Is Disliked In the Far West
Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, July 2l-A tall. stout man,
with large light moustache, prominent nose
and good-sized head, covered with short-clipped
blonde hair, walked backward and forward in
front of Wizards Hotel last evening, with his
hands pushed far down into his pantaloons peck
cts. He was noticed to frequently talk to him
self in audible tones, and to raise his lightcol-
Ored derby hat quite often and mop his broad
forehead, as if he were undergoing some kind of
nervous excitement After this procedure had
been kept up for almost an hour, your COR
respondent inquired of an influential Eastern
member of Congress who the gentleman was.
"That is Henry Ward Beecher's son." replied
the Congressman; she has been here about two
weeks looking after his confirmation Is collect

Evidently there Is something behind the fact
that he has been rejected as collector of the port

your correspondent afterward that there was
