intimate OF the most interesting men OF
his time. He was the friend and biog-
napier Of Byron, he was greatly beloved
by Shelley, and we have already seen
how much he contributed 90 the happi-
ness Of Keats. He loved Shelley more
deeply than the rest, and aw him much
more intimately; but Carlyle, IIazlitt,
Lamb, and Barry Cornwall, not 10 men
ton other famous writers, musicians, and
artists OF his day, were all upon friendly
terms with him. Once only did We meet
him at dinner, at Ms. Proctcr's. Il was

Amusement TOR English scnooIDoys.

l believe that UppinCham makes fuller
provision than any other existing school
to meet the necessity for diverse employ
ment or healthy amusement outside of
study hours Until within few years
the great schools mostly contented them
selves with providing facilities for cricket
and foot ball For these ample provision
is made at Uppingham in several large
playing fields. and the cricketers Of the
school particularly have won for them
selves a record 50 distinguished as TO
prove cOnclusively that exclusive atten
ton to this game is not essential to great
success. But Mr. Thring was perhaps the
first head master who fully realized and
acted upon the fact that many a boy has

THE GOVERNMENT BUILDING IN THE
FIRST WARD.

Without doubt the great majority of
the people in the First Ward desire the
return of P. B. Plumb to the United
States senate and would much regret his
defeat. Every Republican would very
much regret to have it said that the First
Ward was against the man who had
stood so faithfully by the city. 1t is,
nevertheless, a fact that the First Ward
Will have a controlling voice in sending
a representative to the legislature who
will either vote for or against Plumb.
The Republicans nominated Dir. Boyle.
and that there should be no mistake, the
convention pledged him to vote for the
man who got up in the United States
senate, this summer, when they had cut
down the appropriation one half on that
government building in the First Ward,
and made such speech in our behalf as
a city, said so much in our praise as q
people, that the senate was persuaded
not only to put the original sum back.
but made demand that the conference
committee of the two house accede. 1t is
hoped and ought to be expected that the
First Ward will speak out in no uncer-
tain way when it comes to the question
Of representative who has been in
5tructed to vote for Plumb.

A Big Quartette
Washington Globe.


There were four attorney generals in
the supreme court yesterday morning
all there on legal business. They were
Fitzpatrick, of Pennsylvania ; Anderson
of Georgia; Hogg, of Texas, and Brad
ford, of Kansas. All are large men and
to considerable extent. they bear a
strong resemblance 10 each other. The
largest is Mr.. Hogg, who weighs $50
pounds, but the others tip the beam at
figures that are over the 200 mark.
Each succeeded in being introduced to the
others, and then they went out together
and We're weighed, the result being q
grand total of $50 pounds of flesh and le-
gal lore. Then they hired capacious and
extra strong hack and went out for a
drive that lasted until the horses were
tired. The aggregation of law and
avoirdupois is now bound together by
bonds of friendship.

Informed by a Spirit.

Arkansas City Dispatch.
Yesterday we stated that Thomas
Binkley had received message an
nouncing the death of his mother, but
did not have time to give the details of
the mysterious way in which he first re-
ceived his information. On Sunday
evening Mr.. Binkley accidentally drop
ped into the house of John Furlong. in
the Third ward, where number of peo-
pie We're holding a meeting. While there
he received what purported to be spirit
communication telling him that his
mother had died that morning at 800 in
Ohio, and that he would receive word to
that effect on Monday. He did receive a
message as predicted, with the exception
that it gave the time of death at is in
stead of $3.50.

THE UNION LABOR PARTY.

1t was shown that the Union LabO
party had no cognizance of the existence
of the National Order OF VidettS even,-
Wichita Beacon.
That is the point exactly. The honest,
well-meaning farmers and workingmen
of the state who have identified them
selves with the Union Labor party had
no cognizance of the existence of the
"Order of Videtts.'' They did not know
that the Union Labor party was under
the control of this secret, oath-bound
society. They did not know that the
Union Labor party met in secret places
in the middle of the night as Videtts--a
to never reveal even the existence of that
order which they placed above govern
ment, above country and all else but
the supreme ruler of the universe,
and formulated the Union Labor
party platform. named its candi-
dates, saw to it the Videtts packed their
convention, that Nidetts be selected as
the candidates of that party and that
they at all times and at all hazards re-
tain complete and absolute control over
it. That is what, as the Beacon observes,
the rank and file of the Union Labor
party had no knowledge of, and now
that they have this knowledge, placed
before them by indisputable evidence,
now that they have ascertained the char
acter of the moving spirits of this party,
they will have nothing to do with it.
Had not the exposure been made, they
might have gone ahead. and been I'M

A PARTISAN OUTRAGE.

In his annual report Governor Church,
Of Dakota, places the gain in population
in that territory during the past year at
g., 900, making total of $40, 900 people
there now, while in the same period
$500 900 acres Of land have been pur-
chased for settlement. Governor Ste
venson, of Idaho, estimates the present
population of that territory at 100, 000
and puts the amount of land under cul-
tivation at 100000 acres above the fig
ures of year ago. These figures furnish
proof of the rapid growth and develop
ment of the great west and afford a
record of material progress that cannot
be equaled outside of the American re-
public. According to this showing Da-
kata has greater population than either
of the ten states of Colorado, Connecti-
cut, Delaware, Florida, Nevada, New
Hampshire, Oregon, Rhode Island, Yer
mont or West Virginia: yet because, for
sOoth, it is understood that Dakota would
send Republican delegation to con-
gress the Democrats arbitrarily refuse
the appeals of the territory for admission
into the union as a state, thus virtually
DISTINGUISHING the $50, 0G0 voter-citizens
resident there. SO long as the Demo-
cracy shall control the administration
and either branch of congress it will be
their policy to prevent the admission of
Dakota and every other territory that is
likely to develop Republican majority,
and for the reason, in addition to that
stated above, that as territories they af-
ford patronage in the appointment of
officers. With the average Democrat it
is party before country, justice or aught
else

The EAGLE has never meddled or in
terfered in nominations. Its editor may
from year to year have advised, but when
nominations are made the EAGLE is for
the ticket as made, not always from
choice, but from a sincere and lasting
conviction that the Republican conven-
ton was entitled to respect, and the
ticket presented was the result of its de-
alterations, and every Republican should
conceal his personal dislikes and work
not for the candidate, but for the final
success of the heroic principles that
placed Lincoln's name by the side of
Washingtons.

Rumors are rife that men who owe all
their character and prosperity to the Re
publican party, who are unrecognized
until placed in position by this party
men who today would be cyphers if the
rank and file of the parry had not taken
the EAGLES word that they were worthy
of support and voted for them, are de-
Hberately counseling the defeat of some
of the candidates on the Republican
ticket, and their reasons do not
arise to even the dignity of being per-
sonal spite to the candidates, but OH the
other hand smack of indirect bribery
and corruption.

The Republican central committee of
Winfield, whom the Democratic papers
have been charging with the dynamite
explosion at Coffeyville, have offered one
thousand dollars reward for the perpe-
traitor of that crime. Governor Martin
has also offered reward in the name of
the state. As the Democratic party are
wanting money so badly that they are
making all the world blush with their

down, why don't they show up those
guilty Republicans and take that thou

We wonder if Mr.. Rogers, the assist

name figured in that Vidette manual as

crazy? We wouldn't be much surprised.
In that enchiridion Botkin's name also
will no doubt soon be enrolled as a
