A Washington despatch to the New
York Press, says: 1t is stated in the
Democratic side OF the Senate that
senator salisbury of Delaware is al
most heartbroken over his defeat for
reelection. He has passed his three
score and ten years of life, is a bachelor,
and seems 10 have made up his mind
that he would spend the remainder of
his days in the position which he has
neither ornamental nor made useful.
lie also finds himself cut 10 the quick
necause he had been succeeded by u
.;epublican, when the state has been
Democratic almost since Ii IS boyhcod.
Senator salisbury regards the turning
over of Delaware to the Republicans AS
being due In n measure to his own con-
duct In the Senate, as the Republicans
had as a shibboleth in the campaign:
"Down with Saulsburyism" Almost
any day Senator salisbury can be seen
pacing the floor on the west side of the
Senate chamber; his head hangs heavily
forward, and his eyes are strained
toward the carpet; his hands are upon
the small of his back, and lie is in deep
and solemn meditation. He shows his
distress more plainly than any Other
man who has been defeated for re-elec-
ton in the last political deal.

The question now is what will Clifton
Il. Breckinridge, so-called Representa-
tive in Congress from the Second
District of Arkansas, going to do about
it? viii he have the audacity TO step
in and claim his seat like other mem-
bers? If he does let him never com
plain If he Is told that the blood Of his
unfortunate Republican competitor
drops in globules from his finger ends.
He did not kill John NJ. Clayton, no
body accuses him of that, hut he holds
certificate to seat Ill the House
obtained by Just such methods MS are
sure 10 lead to assassination. He knows
that the ballot boxes II Republican dis
trict were stolen and tie votes of others
wtre changed that he might be given
the paltry majority of SAC in total
vote of "A sos. Mr.. Breckenridge knows
that this ~ not an honest majority, and
yet he was willing to take his scat in
Congress upon that vote. Will he do
IL now after his competitor had the life
shot out of him while he was quietly
oontending for his rights under the law,
and attempting TO discover the fraud by
which he was cheated ont of his seat?
Let US see. The contest against him is
ended but only because the contestant
IN ulllIutTttl. Ilil It llNfu pTtthln-
ridge would have been ousted. His
partisan friends have ended the contest
in his favor by assassinating the only
man who stood between him and his
seat. Ii he claims his seat under these
circumstanc =, what are we TO think OF
boasIed southern chivalry, such as
might be expected 10 cmanate from the
House of the Breckinridge's True
honest chivalry would prompt him to
throw aside his certificate obtained by
fraud and theft, and demand another
election, but this time clean and
honest one. If then, he be returned
el cted, he can take his seat without
having before him the spectral vision OF
the murdered Join NJ. Clayton. Only
in this way Can Clifton X. Breckenridge
keep the bloodstain of an innocent man
from touling his skirts.

Ine Board Of Directors OF the Builders
Exchange met last evening, President
Foulk in the chair. The following off,
GERS were elected for the ensuing year:
President, William 81. Foulk; vice -presi-
dents, John B. johnson, francis Simpson
and James NJ. Bryan; secretary, George
81. Mccall; treasurer, Henry Evans.
The Legislative Committee was in
structed to meet the Law Committee of
City Council on Wednesday evening
next to discuss laws which the builders
and contractors needed for their protec-
ton. The directors also decided to give
q banquet a. the Clayton House on the
9th Of February, to which members OF
the National Association of Builders will
be invited and to which also number of
gentlemen of this city not members OF the
exchange will be invited.
An adjourned meeting of the directors
will be held on Monday evening next, at
which President Foulk will announce the
standing committees for the ensuing year
The exchange Is anxious to haYe some
better legislation upon the red light ques-
tion. The members consider the present
Jaw as arbitrary. Their suggestion is for
the Street and Sewer Department to hire
two men to attend to the lights and keep
them burning through the night, the
wages to be paid by those who take out
building permits. These men hired for
this duty would, OF course, be response
BILE to the Street and Sewer Commission
for the performance Of his duty. As the
law now stands the contractor must keep
the lights burning all night, even If he
has to hire man to stay up and watc b
them

READING, Feb. 4-The fact that the
State Board OF Public Charities in their
crusade few years ago did not discover
all of the cases where the insane were IL
legally confined, is shown by the fact that
a womsn in Berne, about fifteen miles
from this city, has just died who has been
chained In the house for the last twenty
five years. She was Mrs. Daniel Zimme =
man, and when she became violently in
sane quarter OF century ago she was,
according to the custom then prevailing
in such cases, chained like wild beast
and has been kept In that condition ever
since, although as kindly treated and
cared for as the circumstances of the case
would permit. There is little doubt in
the minds of those who are acquainted
with the cause of her insanity that had
che had the benefit of the Intelligent and
scientific treatment that can be had at q
modern insane hospital she would have
been restored TO health.

Held by the Enemy" has become
household word among theatre -goers, and
probably no play OF Its class has ever
known such long continued career OF

all these that has en abled 1t to retain Its
