a full account of the whole affair with
the names of nearly all the parties con-

much distressed that the public had
been fully informed of their misdoings.
The publication of the event has created
a genuine sensation of the highest

THE BRwITcHING BELvA.
/, II an early start be any guarantee of
success, then the next President of the
United States will be BelYa A. Lock
wood, of Washington. while the Vice
Presidential chair in the Senate will be
filled By Alfred II. Love, of Philadel-
phia. What a ticket? What war
cry? Lockwood and LoveW When
the news arrived in town that the
Equal Rights Convention had made its
nominations there was no cessation OF
business, everything moved along in
about the same manner as usual and
there we're no signs anywhere Of a
popular uprising. Talking to news
paper man about the convention and
its work, Mrs. Lockwood said:
II have received telegram from Des
Moines, announcing my nomination"
said she, but the official notification
that before making an acceptance
public. The report of the platform
seems vague, and not until get its full
text can thoroughly understand what
principles | am to stand for. | shall
undoubtedly accept. My co-partner
CD the ticket is a prominent Philadel-
pbia Quaker, who is president of the
Peace society.
II shall not make long campaign,
but shall make a few speeches. l
would like to see our organization. car
ried into every State and into every
township. We are the only party with

or less for some time. In Philadelphia
recently | addressed an audience OF l.
800 in the Hebrew Synagogue, the first
woman, l believe, who ever spoke from
such pulpit.
The convention Des Moines was a
paper convention. The delegates. being
mostly poor, could not afford the ex-
pense of a trio, so they were instructed
TO send their preferences by mail. That
saved a deal of expense and served the
purpose as well. Ny letter of accept
ance will probably be out IN about ten
days"
The number of votes cast at Des
| Moines was about $50 and OF these Mrs.
Lockwood received 80. The platform
faVors woman suffrage, a protective
tariff, free whiskey, free sugar and re-
stricted immigration. Mrs, Lockwood
bears her honors with becoming meek

A vIRGINIAN POLITICIAN.
AS President Cleveland is rapidly re-
moving all the old District officials and
filling their places with good solid
Democrats, it may not be out of place
to relate here a pretty fair story con-
aected with a Virginia politician, who
sought District Office under President
Tyler. The story has the merit of, at
least, being true. The Virginian was
named Colonel Jack Dade. he had
been close friend of Mr.. Tyler's when
he was Governor of Virginia, and when
on the death of Gen. Harrison, Mr..
Tyler succeeded to the Presidency, Col
Dade came to Washington in the new
role, to him. of an office-seeker. He
worried Mr.. Tyler almost to death, and
at last, to get rid of him, he was ap-
pointed uperintendent of the Peni.
tertiary, which was located where the
arsenal now stands. To the astonish-
ment of his friends, who knew his easy,
convivial nature, Col. Dade accepted the
position. The morning after he took
possession of the penitentiary, Col.
Dade had all the convicts ranged before
him. and, mounting on chair, he made
this remars able speech:
"Gentlemen, / am Colonel Jack Dade,
of Virginia. have been appointed su-
perintendent of this penitentiary by my
friend John Tyler, President of these
United States. I am gentleman, and
have been accustomed all my life to
associate with gentlemen. l intend to
treat you az such, and if any of you do
not behave yourselves will turn you
right out of here"
1t is impossible to depict the con-
sternation produced among the prison
ers by such q speech, but it is not of
record that any of them had the te-
merity to incur the threatened penalty.
The Colonel remained in charge of the
institution for several years, dispensing
hospitality that made the place a
favored resort for many prominet peo-
pie in both private and official lite.
