CLEVELAND AND THURMAN.)

Hubbard Bros. the well known publishers of
Philadelphia, Chicago and Kansas City, an
nouncc the preparation and publication between
July list and 18th, OF Biography of Cleveland
and Thurman. also Mrs. Cleveland. the popular
Bride of the White House. together with full
setting forth of the great Tariff issue and a
great variety of valuable political matter the
whole to be written and edited by W. L. Hen
sci of Lancaster.
1t would be difficult to find man better fitted
to write the lives of the Democratic candidates
for President and Vice President than W. u.
Hcnsel. lawyer. editor and politician. For
nearly fifteen years he was one OF the editors
of the Lancaster Intelligencer; for five years
Chairman of the Democratic State Committee
of Pennsylvania: delegate to nearly oil the
Democratic conventions since 1877; Chairman
of the State convention of 1855; delegate to St.
Louis author of many sketches of public men
and notably the campaign biographer of Mr..
Hendricks in 1854. Sincerely devoted to the
principles of the party to which he has been
attached. and which he has served from boy
hood active in all honest efforts to promote
those principles among his countrymen. and
having come into close personal contact with
most of the men who have been recognized by
the present and the last generation ms the OK
poncnts of the best ideas of the party. he is
particularly fitted for the task III band. He
has the additional advantage of having been
one of the warmest friends and adhcrcnts of
Mr.. Cleveland. not only before his ascension to
the Presidency hut since and during that time.
He has also long been an admircr and personal
friend of Mr. Thurman. so that he has all the
qualifications necessary to enable him to write,
fair truthful and entertaining sketches of the
the standard-bcarcrs of the Democratic party
during the Presidential canvass of 1883.
This will undoubtedly be the most authentic
and excellent work issued.
1t is published by subscription, and we I'M
dcrstand agents are already taking orders with
unusual rapidty.

p. S. Geiger, residing on South Po-
tomac street, opposite st. Johns
Lutheran church, was awakened from
her sleep by some strange person who
had forced an entrance to the house
by a rear window and had gained her
bedroom. In the short struggle that
ensued, she had her night clothes
badly torn, but the william was routed
and made good his escape before he
could be identified. Mr.. Geiger was
absent from home, having gone on
business to Philadelphia, and not
reaching home until this morning. A
young son, who slept in an adjoining
room, was awakened and, procuring
a gun, set in pursuit, but no traces
of the man could be obtained. The
officers were notified and are engaged
in a still hunt, but with what result
remaines to be seen. The assailant
was a white man. but the room was
too dark to fully identify him.
