Belvldere, ILLINOIS, Dy Telegram last
week Tuesday, announcing the sudden
death of his father Luther Hollister, at
that place. Mr.. Hollister was hale and
hearty old gentleman. and very active for
| a man of his years. Frequent visits to

He was sick but short time and there
was thought to be so little danger of a
fatal termination that A. o. Hollister!
who was visiting friends but few miles

bed side. His remains were carried TO
Chicago and inferred in the cemetery
there, his three sons, two sons in law and
one grandson-in law acting as bearers.

A Methodist Minister with wives In -Four
States.

Washington, Nov. 1l.-An investi-
CATION begun by the police Of this city
into the career of q man travelling
under the name of Marion ID. Newman
has brought to light some very inter-
esting things. Newman was arrested
on a charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses, brought by woman
whom he had met as the result of an
advertisement, stating that a gentle
man desired the acquaintance Of an
intelligent lady with view to matri.
mony.
The woman who made the charge
after an interview with Newman, re-
fused to press it'but the police held
him under suspicion to await further
investigation. They have already
found that he was ordained as Meth
odist minister in Maine about dozen
years ago and subsequently, he was
transferred to New Jersey. II has also
been asccrtained that under the names
of Dc Hughes, Noble and st. Clair, he
has been married TO women in Phila.
dclphia, Jackson, Tenn, and Indian
apolis, and in Wisconsin.
The police found in Newman's room
a number Of letters from respectable
but foolish young girls and women oi
this city, filed with expressions of the
most passionate admiration for New
man. They hope TO get some Of his
former wives to testify against him and
convict him of bigamy.

Words OF wisdom.

If General Harrison is capable Of
emulating the courage and the honesty
with which his predecessor has treated
public questions, he may be sure that
he viii be equally beyond the need OF
patronage; and if he is not 1t Is quss-
tionable whether the use Of patronage
will avail him. There has been within
the last four years real though partly
unconscious progress in the popular
way Of looking at this question. A
"clean sweep" now would horrify
men who would have taken 1t as o
matter of course if Cleveland had ven-
tured upon it.-New York Times, Rep.
Let us frankly face and measure the
disaster. The country has lost the
best President IL has had for many
years. 1t has lost him when his work
was but half done. The Democratic
party has been beaten when for the
first time since its early days 1t wos
distinctly identified with great pop
ular reform. The Republican party
has come back into power, still domi'
mated by its most unfit man, and vic.
torious through its subserviency to
great moneyed interest. We shall MOI
make light of such national misfor
tune as this.-Springfield Republican
Independent.
There was no occasion for Senator
Quay to make the gratuitous statcmen
that the Republicans carried by increa
sed majorities all the States that wer'
carried for Blaine in 1884. In Rhcd
Island Blaine's majority was reduces
by over 2000 votes, and there was als'
o reduction in the vote of New Hamp
shire, while the official returns from
some of the Western States may pos
sibly show still larger proportional
reductions. There is diplomatic pre-

POOR BRICE.

Is not the repuDtlon winch we nave
given Col. Calvin s. Brlce as a rainbow
chaser justified by his activity up to
the last moment? The Cincinnati En-
quirer publishes the dispatch and
pro rnostication that Col. Brice sent to
Mr.. J. B. Townsend, chairman Of the
democratic state committee in Ohio,
ON the day before the election:
"To J. B. Townsend, Chairman:
9We are confident Cleveland will
carry New Yorh by $4,000 to 100000,
Connecticut 4500, New Jersey 5000 to
10000, Indiana 10000 to $4,000. A
formal agreement has been entered
into between this committee, the New
York State committee and the demo-
cratic local organizations here which
absolutely assures straight vote on
the national ticket You can rest as
sured there will be no trading.
"CALvIN s. BRIcE.
"New York, Nov. 8, 1882
The agreement was faithfully OBJ
served. To all appearances the only
persons who knitted Cleveland were
his mugwump supporters. His city vote
of $4,000 In 1884 was increased to
10000, and his former plurality OF
$4,000 was carried up to $1,000. Mr..
Cleveland was honestly dealt with by
the democratic organizations of this
town. He held his former vote here,
and gained more than his share Of the
normal increase.
And yet, in spite of this, Col. Brice's
fignres for New York were from 4O,-
900 to $4,000 votes out of the way, and
the error was in favor of the rainbow
Every bright rainbow to which Col
Brices hands were outstretcted van
ished into the gray the Toment his
fingers closed around its pessimistiC
nothingness. No wonder the practi.
cal old Roman, watching the returns
at Columbus on Tuesday night, was
moved to remark: ''I see that BricC
has sent out dispatch saying that
New York has gone democratic by
10000 The returns do not bear him
out in this, and cannot see the object
in sending out such news"
Col. Brice's brief career in politics
will always remain one of the pictur
esquo things of history. His chronic
failure to comprehend the truth about
the political situation, his alternation'
of rainbow joy and profound dejec
ton, his touching faith in the efiicac,
of paper-stock canvass, and bis cheer
ful, unceasing, never-ending flow o
language, like well-charged phono
graph crammed to the muzzle will
vowel and consonant sounds, will dis
tinguish him from all other campaign
managers, present or to come.
And yet it would be extremely un
lust to intimate that Col. Brice did no
do as well as he knew how to do. !
would be equally unjust to say that b
} is primarily responsible for the demo
cratic defeat. 1t was not Col. Brio
, that lost the battle.-New York Sun.

Mexico is in a quandary as to where

When Connecticut and New Jersey go
