William Gardner, of this city, formerly en-

brick returned today from trip to England.
He said:

who turned it over TO the Golden Club. The
latter sent it 10 the United States 10 aid 10 the

err and his reply was: No, not this year. We
made blasted fools OF ourselves before in send
ing printed stuff to the States, you know, but
we've substituted barrels of the useful stuff and
hope for the success of the Democratic party.
Then put an emphatic 'WhyP at my volubls

A Democratic View.

st Louis Post-Dispatch.
II the elections in Maine and Vermont show
nothing sse, they show that the backbone of
the Republican party is still unbroken, and
that il can still make q winning fight where il is
on top On the other hand the election in Ar
kansas shows that side-show diversions in poll
tics are being used with considerable effect
against the Democrats in some Of their most re-
liable States On the whole, il seems that this
is to be a hard aud uncertain contest, which will
not be decided until it has been fought out to
the end.

A Timely Correction.

An exchange recalls. in connection with o
reference to the metric system, that the five
cent nickel was designed especially for its use
as a unit Of measurement or of weight by the
decimal systsm-bsing exactly five grammes in
weight and two centimeters in diameter. This
may prove timely correction OF the popular
fallacy that the nickel was designed especial
ly to drop into slots and contribution baskets.

Of familiar and patriotic tunes as old soldiers

ton. the Irsh-American Club, Of Chicago. and 10
cal organizations joined hand in hand in honoring
General Harrison. Although in the earlier part
OF the afternoon the eight hundred workingmen
from New Albany were assembled in University
Park to make and hear speeches. yet, few
hours later, when the Chicago crowd arrived,
the city around the business center took upon
itself another aspect. Not that the New Al
bary and other delegation was eclipsed by that
following il, but strong line of demarcation was
naturally drawn aud readily observed. As
usual, the greatest enthusiasm was shown among
the delegations and spectators who lined the
streets. Owing to the fact that the first to ar
rive did 80 at about noon, the customary lull in
the business part Of the city prevailed TO an ex-
tent that somewhat decreased the crowd Of citi-
xens who would otherwise have turned out to
witness the arrival Of the visitors. But By 9
o'clock the usual Saturday afternoon rush began
TO become manifest, and in . comparatively
brief space Of time tne sidewalks of Washington
street and of the cross streets from the Union
depot to the New Denison Hotel were
crowded with people sauntering in every
direction with no definite object but to see the
