At the annual banquet of the Alum

College to the Faculty and Class OF
1885, which was held at Natatorium
Hall, Philadelphia, last Friday evening,
twenty physicians were precipitated
into pit a distance of about 10 feet,
by the giving away of the floor. The
accident was caused by the breaking of
a sill along the side of the hall on
which the cross-beams rested. This
let the floor down on one side only,
forming an inclined plane, down which

that he should have the Office of register in

may and may not be wise prediction
In the mind Of Governor Gray it is very seri-
Ously out of tho line of probabilities and the
truth. 1t is possible that the Democratic
party expect their gerrymander swindle to
save them the State, but it is not so certain
that they will not be disappointed. AS to the
election of Mr. Mcdonald without material
opposition, Governor Gray could not be in
duced to think anything of the kind. 1t were
well to wait till all the returns are in before
counting things so confidently.

woman and a charming vocalist leads the choir
She. like many of his relatives, was rot invited
to her brothers wedding. When William saw
his brother pay Dr. Sunderland 500 for marry
ing him, he thought of his little salary and mis-
boys struggling for an education. and it quito
broke his heart. The President has had many
chances to help his poor and deserving relations
but his heart has been turned against them
since his election to the presidency. He even
prevented his brother William from accepting a
pastorship of Washington church at a salary
five times as high as his present salary. He op-
posed his brother-inlaw, N. c. Bacon, when the
citizens selected that accomplished gentleman
for the superintendency of the Toledo custom
house.

The Lesson of the Bynum Contest.

Philadelphia Press.
So the Hendricks influence may be said to have
been elimina ted from Indiana politics in less
than year after his death. In a contest with q
man who was looked upon as the special enemy
of the late Vice president his friends made
beggariy showing and were ignomniously de-
feAted. AS there no basis for Mr. Hendricks
popularity except his ability to win votes by his
readiness to parcel out tho spoils when victory
had been won, there is, perhaps, nothing strange
in the swiftness with which his name and his In
fuence pass into obscurity None of his work
was permanent. He left no impression upon
national legislation. He was in every sense a
politician and IN no sense statesman. The
puny character of his work as compared with the
achievements Ct Oliver p. Morton will become
more apparent as the years go by. The latter
labored for humanity, and his work still stands;
but all of Thomas A. Hendricks ends were
selfish, and few months efface his influence so
completely that his bitterest foe triumphs over
the feeble faction that tries to defend hts
memory,

COLONEL BACHELOR, sent to Charleston
to Officially" report on the effects of the
earthquake, makes statement that cit was
not much of shower, anyhow" and that the
distress is not what he had been led to expect
from the reports that had been sent out
through the press. He explains that, while
there was great loss, it fell principally upon
the rich, on whom the destruction of property
could make no lasting effect, while the poorer
people, occupying frame buildings, suffered
little beyond the destruction of plastering on
the walls of their homes, which remained in
tact. From this he argues that there is little
need Of forwarding relief in great quantities
lie is probably correct in his statement of the
les falling upon those who had much to lose,

The President processes to have no author

This absurd conclusion is likely to cause a

always so particular in regard to exceeding
his authority. He strains point sometimes,

Matthews after the Senate had rejected him.

the people of the State attempting to accom-

A Model of Strength.

The platform is model of strength, SYM
rnetry, beauty and good sense. 1t says what it
means. and says it with uncertain sound. 1t
is bold, fearless. courageous, arouses enthusiasm
and judgment of the community at large. It is
long, but none too long to cover the infamies,
derelictons and sins, both of commission and
omission, of the party it so thoroughly scathes.
The temperance plank in the platform is exactly
the right thing in the right place, and at the
right time.

is well to forward it promptly and generously.
The men who have lost much must be given
time to recover their courage. so that they

1t was composed of the best element of Indiana

that followed after the reading of the temper
