THE OLD ROMANS HELPMEET.
interesting Points in the Life of Mrs.
Thurman.

NEW YORK, July 2S-Mrs Allen G.
Thurman was Mary Dun before marriage
She came of a rich Ohio family and was
Mrs Thompkins previous to her last union.
When she married Judge Thurman she
had one daughter who since died. She is
an old lady, dressing in the fashion of half
a century ago, wearing a quaint round
bonnet tied firmly under her cnin, her face
shaded by an old fashioned dotted veil, de
pending from the headgear. She does not
attend church, but is known as a woman of
broad charities. During the war, when on
visit to Camp Chase which was located just
out of Columbus, she was anxious to assist
the soldiers without regard to political bias.
With this idea before her, she consulted the
Roman Catholic Bishop Fitzgerald as to
which of the poor fellows most needed the
Injuries of life. The bishop informed her
that the union soldiers had everything
while the confederates were suffering for
the necessities of life, whereupOn she daily
supplied the latter lavishly from her own
table. In conversation, Mrs. Thurman is
witty, full Of comical stories and is known
throughout the family as an inveterate
talker. 1t is usual joke with them how
the old lady berates her spouse publicly on
account of his indifference to his health. A
friend once dining there tells how Mrs.
thurman once began on TINS 1rulJIul theme,
celebrating that the ex-senator's i'll health
was entirely due to his persistent careless
ness. 1t seems that she waxed quite elo-
quent, after her fashion, keeping up run
ming comment for some ten minutes. The
old Roman sat impassve during the har
angue, apparently receiving the rebuke
humbly. When, however, she at last
reached period, he said in a gruf voice:
"Mary, will you have some meatF
Judge and Mrs, Thurman have two
daughters, Lizzie, Mrs. Gov. Richard Nc
Cormick, of Montana, whose husband is
in bad health, and Mary, Mrs. Lieut.. Coles,
of the navy.
Mrs. Coles is a handsome, gifted woman,
who in her early life had decided dramat-
ic talent. Her natural fOndness for animals
developed after her childless marriage into
a mania for poodles Two in particular
were treated like children. There were
nurses for them and every possible attention.
One dOggie died and was cremated another,
a special idol, was AS well gathered TO its
fathers. This pet was almost cremated and
for a long time was carried about by Mrs
Coles, the ashes being carefully lncased IN a
brass urn. Columbus society was torn in
twain when the lady appeared there wearing
deep mourning for tho poodle, the bomba-
zine and long Grape veil producing one of
the most decided sensations that capital had
ever endured. Later the urn was placed IN
the Coles villa at Newport, where il now oc-
cupies a conspicuous place.

What is Going On in the Season When

NEW York, July ga novel idea is
that put in practice by number of young
girls who are making souvenir albums

A lovely old lady who started her collection
many long years ago, was calculating the

There were other scraps, a host of them,
all brought out from a little rosewood box,
lifted with tender fingers and laid back
again with a far-away look. There was
bit Of the dress worn the first day the young
new house; II scrap of wooden that told of
an adventurous journey west with voyag-
ings on the Ohio, as the Ohio then was
silks of half dozen hues worn at the christ
enIng of half dozen babies; prints and
ginghams, standing for as many small first
teeth; Grape marking the death of the latest
little one; a crumpled piece of sprigged
muslin worn that day in the early sixties
when two boys enlisted for the war; more
muslins and deaines that brought mem
cries of battles and leuteDant's commits
sion; a lavend r silk for the wedding of a
daughter, aud all manner of helOtrOpes and
grays, delightful old ladies' colors for the ad-
vents and escapades of the grandchildren.
The rosewood box locks with q key, but the
society girls who are taking up the notion
start their collections on more elaborate
scale. The favorite scheme isl very dainty
album-new albums are as mutitudinOus as
new bags-into whose pages the tell-tale
bits of cloth are set, each with a date and
some cabaistic letters betokening its signi-
ficance. One susceptible damsel celebrates
every dance she dances with a certain
young man, and another points with pride
to clippings from tennis and boating gowns
which stand by unlucky mOrtals who dared
to propose. A square of brown cashmere
has a whole page in one girls album. 1t
was put there the day she earned her first
dollar.

Some few of the summer girls before

4 MORAL COWARD.

Cleveland Leader.
The river and harbor bill has become
law, bot not through official endorse
ment by The President. 1t is an apprO-
priation involving millions. The Presi-
dent denies it his approval, but permits
it to become valid and legal by tolerance.
The question is, would the President have
adopted similar course with COM
paratively insignificant private pension
bill, the passage of which would have
gladdened somebody's heart? Would he
not have given days of study to the bill
and hours of preparation to verbose
and grandilOquent veto message disap-
proving of the government paying John
Smith, an old veteran, a paltry monthly
pittance for services rendered his cOun-
try? Where is the boaSted moral cOur-
age of the man who by inference de-
clares the river and harbor bill to be SO
full of defects and jobs that he cannot
sanction it and yet dare not veto it?
Who is this canting, vacillating hypO-
crite who tolls diligently with his right
hand to veto the payment of cents, while
a stream Of dollars from the public mint
flows unrestrained into the outstretched
palms of his masters from his left? Is
this the much heralded Democratic de-
fender of the right, this enemy of maim-
ed veterans and the widow and the Or
phan? The story of the river and har-
Dor bill is but a repetition in small
way OF the history of the administration.
II. .4--.-l
and enlarged upon by the Democratic
press to the self glOrilicatiOn of the Pres
ident, while concerning the big jobs
discreet silence is observed. The Presi-
dent is equal to the task of vetOing a
$50 per month pension bill but worse
than failure-a moral cOward-where
the millions appropriated in mammoth
river and harbor bill are concerned.

OUR offer to pay the Gazette for the
publication of the section of the Repub-
lican platform relating to the tariff was
not accepted by that able paper. Its
readers will take notice that not one line
of the Republican platform has been
printed in that paper. We printed the
Democratic platform in full the week fol
lowing its adoption, and we keep the par
agraph concerning the tariff standing in
a conspicuous place in this paper.
Possibly the readers of the Gazette are
satisfied with such news as that paper
furnishes them, and, no doubt, its con-
ductors think it smart politics to keep
them in the dark as far as possible, and
lie like sin about the declarations of the
Republican platform, but men who have
any sef-respect or sense of decency think
it very shabby.

THE able Gazette thinks wool growing
is not very profitable, at any rate, and
that as result sheep raising is on the
decline. Suppose this is all true, will
the removal of the duty and the opening
of our ports to the woods of South Amer
lea and Australia, better the condition
of things? The duty is about 10 cents
pound. That duty was fixed in the be
lief that it would so protect home grow
ers that foreign woods could not be ship
ped in to such an extent as to break down
home production, and that wool growing
under the protection afforded would be
fairly remunerative. Suppose you re-
move that duty, will not the price of
wool be effected about to that eXtent?-
1t is said that wool can be proitably pro
duced in South America and Australia
at &c to Sc per pound. Ocean freightS to
Boston will cost little more than all rail
freights from Belmont county, and with
the tonnage of the seas in the hands of
Great Britain, thanks again to the Dem
ocratic party, how easy it would be to
break down and ruin that great industry
of this country.
Your masters, Mr.. Gazette, the cotton
and rice and sugar lords of the South,
are interested in cheap labor on their
plantations. They propose to carefully
protect the products of the South, while
they break down and ruin the North by
putting its products in competition with
the cheap labor of Europe and Asia, and
doughfaces in the North are ready to do
their bidding, as they were before the
war.
