The Prohibition Republicans who
held a convention in Trenton on We'd
nesday undoubtedly are setting a trap
to catch their own party's neck instead
Of the Prohibition party. Their party

tion would most likely be defeated by
Prohibition Democrats voting their
old ticket. The Republicans are not
likely to be wagged by the Prohibition
tail so they will lose the Prohibition
votes and probably estrange the liquor
men by the bold declaration of the con
ference.

instantly by q blow on the head with
a green hickory club weighing eight
pounds. in the hands OF a negro
named George Gray. Vince had been
trading at a store, and was on his way
home with his wallet, accompanied
by his little son, aged thirteen years.
He had not proceeded far, as the little
boy testified before the jury Of in
quest, when Gray emerged from a
bush and eeizad his father
and demanded his money. His father
made some little demonstration of re-
~sistance, when Gray felled him with
his club with the above result. He
then went through" his pockets and
took fome p'eces OF silver and &c arched
the little fellows pockts, too. Vince
had told the fortune Of GTay's wife
that evening, for which she paid him

alleged that it was for the recovery of
that dollar that Gray assaulted Vince,
simply to disable him, and
not 10 kill him, or that Vince
had "tricked" her, and he sought
this revenge for it. Public sentiment

that mob violence is restrained. The
murdered man left three little orphan

Vince recently came. GIay is in close

Ted sullivan Col1anses

After the misunderstanding over the
transfer of the Milwaukee CLUB to West st.
Paul. Managers Barnes and Sullivan did
not speak as they passed by for several
weeks. When the st. Paul team was in
the Cream City on its last trip, Sullivan
came up to Barnes, who was sitting on the
piazza at the hotel at which he was STOP
ping. and said:
"See here, Barnes, what's the use of old
rusters like you and me going around pout-
ing? We are the only rustlerS in the league,
Let's make up, and go over and have drink
at nice quiet place.
Barnes assented and the two started out
for sip of some notifying mixture. On
the way over Sullivan diIated as follows on
his crack ball team:
''Johu, old boy, had lot of bummers in
my club when 1 started out last spring, but,
thank God, I've got rid of them all now. I've
got sober set Of sluggers all through. Why,
they are almost afraid to look at q schooner
of BEER
Having arrived at the sequestered re-
treat. the two seated themselves and par
took OF pleasing potion. Suddenly a
sound of revelry came from an adjoining
room, and the managers quietly stepped in
to get a glimpse of the hilarious drinkers.
When Sullivan crossed the threshold he was
paralyzed with surprise. There in the
center of the room were nine members OF
the Milwaukee team and the umpire grad
ually going into ecstaSies over ordinary B.
cent beer. The Milwaukee manager slowly
whistled through his fingers, the wind
whistled through his whskers, and the ir-
repressible Ted dropped through crack in
the floor and has not been heard of since.

The Former to Aid the Latter in tac
Badger Republican Convention.
Special to the Globe.
EAU CLAIRE, Aug. 2S.-The somewhat
ambiguous attitude of DR.. Charles Alex
ander of this city in regard to his nomina-
ton for lieutenant governor on the Prohi-
bition ticket, has led to the belief that he
has big bumble-bee in his No. hat. He
declines to say whether or not he accepts
the nomination or whether or not he stands
on any of the planks of the Prohibition
platform, but he informs the Prohibitionsts
in general way that he is in sympathy
with them, and will be pleased to have
them vote for him. At the same time he is
undoubtedly Republican, and says dis
tinctly that he does not belong to the Pro-
hibition party. AS model of diplomacy
his speech before the Prohibition congress
sional convention was far superior to that
of Mr.. Price, who had just been nominated
for congress by the Republicans and caught
the Prohibition nomination by a scratch.
1t is believed that the upshot of DR.. Alex
ander's maneuvers will be that his name
will be presented to the Repub-
lican state convention as can
didate for the nomination for
lieutenant governor and that he will develop
some strength. In a word, it is believed
that DR.. Alexander has taken half inter-
est in Hon. William T. Prices patented
Dallot-trap, although DR.. Alexander is
working the machine from the other end.
His basis of operations in the Republican
convention will be substantially the same
as that of Mr.. Price in this congressional
district. viz, that he is in no sense third
party Prohbitionist, but nevertheless has
the Prohibition vote in his pocket. Alex
ander and Price held long private con-
sultation when the latter was last in this
city, and it is certain that Mr.. Price, as far
as his influence extends, will support DIR.
Alexander in his supposed designs on the
Republican state convention.
