ROSE ELIZABETH.
The Dizzy Creature Shows Her Backbone to
the Chicago Publisher.

Chicago Tribune.
Miss Cleveland has now assumed editorial
management of Chicago monthly, and is at
tending to her editorial duties at her summer
residence, 1.-THE Weeds" at Holland Patent,
Oneida county. New York. She will not come
to Chicago until September. The publisher of
the monthly has already learned that Miss
Cleveland is lady who knows her own mind.
and who is no respecter of the whms or ideas OF
publishers or business managers. Firstly, she
insisted that all advertisements should be sub
mitted in proof to her for approval or
rejection, and the result is that several
present and prospective advertising patrons
of the paper have had their matter for the
August number rejected. Miss Cleveland
began by casting out all quack advertisements.
such as those relating to patent complexion
powders, wrinkle-removers, cosmetics, beautl-
flying elixirs ETC.. and following this up by can
ceiling the contracts for full-page lads" re-
lating to patent medicines. When the publisher
completed the agreement by which he secured
Miss Clevelands services he tried to persuade
her to allow her name to be printed on the
title page of the periodical Miss Cleveland OBJ
iected to her name appearing on any
that the publication should stand or fail
on its own merits without the adventurous aid
which her name and position might chance to
give it, He dropped the matter there. but sub,
sequently concocted willy plan to get Miss
Cleveland's name on the cover her objections
new and pretty design for title page, in which
the Words Edited by Miss Cleveland" ap-
peared in minute form flowing scroll. He
sent her a copy of the design fully expecting the
artistic character of the work would overcome
her objections to notoriety, and by return mail
got a rather tart note from the lady, saying in
substance: 'My name shall not appear-this
is final" Then he and an enterprising ar
list concocted plan for the issue OF Miss
Cleveland's picture in the form of large en-

store windows. Miss Cleveland decidedly OBJ
jected. Again. the pnblisher when printing her
letter heads for editorial correspondence, accord
ing to form she sent him, wrote a long letter
asking permission to leave out 1.-THE Weeds" or
else that Miss Cleveland would change the name
OF her residence. She merely replied. " The
Weeds it will remain" The publisher says he
has got out exceptionally poor number for
july in order that Miss Clevelands editorial ad
vent may be emphasized by the wonderful i'm

Oakland (Md.) Special.
This place narrowly escaped being the scene
of terrible calamity this morning. Cardinal
Gibbons of Baltimore and the papal nuncio
have been at Deer Park for Il day or two and
they having expressed the intention OF preaching
in the Catholic church here. there was great
anxiety among the residents of the neighborng
towns. Protestant as well as Catholic, to hear
and see the distinguished officers OF the church
Before the hour set for the church services had
arrived tie Cardinal and nuncio held a sort of
reception at private residence. around which
fully 1000 ladies and gentlemen gathered. The
residence was filled with people paying their re-
spects to the Cardinal and nunco. while about
two hundred others were crowded upon large
porch outside awaiting an opportunity to enter,
Suddenly the porch, unable to support the null
ttude. gave way, and the crowd fell in mass
among the broken timber and debris A scene
of great excitement ensued. women faintine
while the air was filled with the cries of those
who were on the porch, and the EXPLANATIONS of
horror from others outside 1t was at first
feared that many had been killed. but. fortu-
narely, no lives were lost. About dozen per-
sons however, were more or less seriously
bruised and cut, but none of their hurts are

THE Chattanooga Commercial, approaching
the fact that that city and all that part of the
State of Tennessee have prospered by reason
of the advantages afforded by the working of
the tariff law, expresses the not unnatural be-
lief that it would be an excellent thing for
Tennessee to elect Republican Governor. 1t
says:
"If Tennessee will elect Republican Gov
ernor next November, it will be worth mill
ions to the State Tennessee will then be the
most important State In the Union In the
presidential contest Northern capital would
find its way here by the millions As bust
ness proposition the voters of Tennessee can
, afford to elect a Republican Governor"
In reply to this the Louisville Courier
Journal comes back at it with the taunt that
the Commercial would like to have Tennessee
the battle ground for the mean purpose Of
reaping the benefit of the money that would
be expended to corruptly influence its cleo
tons. This isahout the size of the Demo
cratic idea of such things. The Commercial
sees prosperity in Republican business meth
DDS, and honestly believes it would be good
thing to invite more Of it. The Courier
Journal Immediately thinks of 'fcrisp two
are to be corrupted. 1t is narrow and mean
policy, and cannot go far toward convincing
the readers Of that paper Of its sin
certify. 1t is a fact, patent to all,
that in every place where Republican meth
DDS Of doing business have been introduced in
the South the South has prospered as never
before. 1t would be worth millions to Ten
nessee to elect a Republican Governor, and for
the reason meant by the Commercial. pub
lished in one of the thriftiest cities of the
South and prospecting under a Republican
majority. Let but one Of the solid Southern
States go Republican, and it would be the
best kind of guaranty that new day had
dawned upon the people, and they were at last
to hating the North and devising methods Of
keeping the South in perpetual hostility to
the rest Of the country. With Tennessee Re-
publican, millions Of capital would speedily
flow into its Golfers, and manufactures would
spring up everywhere. The very moment
any Southern locality indicates disposition
TO tolerate all honest men alike, that moment
the wealth of the North begins to take hold
of the work of developing that part of the
country that stands in such need of being de-
veloped. 1t would, indeed, be a grand thing
for the State of Tennessee to elect Republi-
can Governor next November

THE solicitude displayed by the party
friends of ex-senator Mcdonald who do not
want him in tho Cabinet that he should ac-
cumulate something for old age by his law
practice, must be more or less gratifying to
that amiable gentleman. 1t will be remem-
bered, by the way that this argument
against Mr.. McDonald's acceptance of office
has been advanced on every occasion on
which his name has been mentioned in con-
nection with important official position for
several years. With the lucrative practice
which he is alleged to have had all this time
it might be supposed, by one with better
head for figures than for politics, that he
must now be we'll enough ''ixed" financially
to permit of his going in little for glory
without regard to lucre.

Pa-son Downs preached to-day, as advertised,
in Bumstead Hall. He came home last night
after a day in the country and learned for the
first time of the new indictment found against
him by the grand jury. He will be arraigned in
the Superior Court tomorrow morning and q
day will be fixed for trial. About the new
charges of adultery he said:

an indictment against me to-day, but we have

D0cToRs, the regular variety Of the spe-

esty and fear of newspaper notority when paid
for by the line or square, is something that
can be fully appreciated only by those lonely
business men who ''never advertise" A GER
tain DR.. Mccoy, who lately moved from St.
Louis to Minneapolis applied to the State
Board of Medical Examiners at the latter
place for license to practice. Being gradu-
ate of reputable college his diploma was un-
Objectionable, and he would have been admit
ted into the sacred ranks without further CUES
ton had not letters been received by the
board from St Louis physicians charging Nc
Coy with the awful crime of advertising, and
urging that no license be granted him. On
being Intercepted Mccoy admitted his guilt,
and with brazen effrontery announced his in
tention Of continuing in the same course in
future. Scandalized by this dshonorable and
unprofessional conduct, the medical men re-
fused the license and Mccoy was cast into
outer darkness. Having probably, expert
enced the risks of starvation attendant upon
being strictly professional, and of depending
upon an obscure "shingle" for making himself
known to the public, the unfortunate doctor
will, doubtless make another change of resi-
dence, and will this time seek place where
there is no legal opportunity to boycott, if
such places there be. In the meantime, how

CHRISTMAS coURTESlEs.

General A. =. Bushnell Presented with
Handsome Gold-Headed Cane by His
once Force.
On Friday evening President A. S. Bush
nell, on behalf Of The Warder, Bushnell &
Glessner Co.. gave each Of the Office force
an envelope containing few crisp green
backs. The men had been preparing a
surprise for General Bushnell, and just
before closing time they surrounded him,
when W. ii. Guthrie presented him with
handsome gold-hesded cane, saying: "Mr.
BUSHNELL have been deputiZed by the
gentlemen present as bearer Of small
taken OF their good will, and in presenting
you this cane they beg 1t will be accepted
in the same generous spirit that you have
so often manifested toward them.
at Is hard, on occasions like this, to prop
erly express the thoughts we would say,
but am sure voice the sentiment OF each
and every one in saying that no similar oc-
casion today will bear with 1t more hearty
and earnest wishes for long life, prosper
ity and many merry Christmas greetings TO
you and yours"
Mr.. Bushnell was wholly taken by sur
prise, but surrendered gracefully, and in
response said that it had always been the
aim of his life to so act toward his fellow men
as to merit their respect and friendship, and
this expression, coming as 1t did, and from
those with whom he has been so long assO-
ciated, was specially gratifying. and that
no gift that he had or might receive, would
be more highly appreciated. Thanking
them for the testimonial, he hoped that the
pleasant relations Of the past might be con-
tinued for many years. The cane is beauty.
and the unostentatious way in which it was
presented made the gift all the more ac-
ceptable. On the head of the cane was
engraved the words: Asa S. Bushnell,
December IS, 1856"

On leaving Tuplza we passed the frs.
llamas, driven by Indians. The llamas are
very useful and rather pretty animals When
full grown they are the size Of stays, and are
very gentle and tame. They have beautiful
liquid eyes and are impressive. Through the
highlands Of Bolivia and Peru they are much
used for packing merchandise. They carry
about eighty pounds. Their wool Is also
used. They travel very slowly, about twenty
miles day, and can only he managed by
kindness. When tired out or abused they lie
down and nothing can make them get up.
Each herd has always leader, which, with a
bell around his neck, forms a rallyins point
for the rest Generally the Indians orna-
ment them by passing strings Of red wool
through the tips Of their ears, pierced for the
purpose, and with collars Of like material.
They walk with their beads slightly thrown

Whether out Of policy or through a fellow
