duced considerable alarm among the
Democratic leaders, and it means a rapid
hurrying of forces into that section. 1t
is asserted that Malone has a liberal
money supply. Each member of these
forest meeting clans has a certain sum
entered against his name, and he will be
paid Off the night after the election.
Malone relies much upon the poverty
of the small farmers in that section.
Floods and rains almost entirely devas-
tated their crops, and they are without
ready money.
1t is alleged that under his system 1000
votes are contracted for at So each. With
this and his certain negro majorities he
calculates on overcoming the Democratic
strength 10y at least 800 majority.
The picture is not without its opposite
and more reassuring side. In Richmond
Wednesday night an entire w~orkingmen's
Republican club, with but two dissenting
Eoices, decided to work against Malone
And vote for Mckinney, the Democratic
nominee.
Still there is work ahead for the Demo-
erats, and unless it is done, and done in
SANITY and with vigor, Malone will re-
rapture the State, and that would be a la
Sntable disaster to our sister Common
alth.

Two Men Who Saw the Job
Put Up.

NIRaARA FALLS, September 11.-NOt
for en- instant did any one living in the
vicinity OF Niagara Falls believe that Steve
BrOdie went over the Horse1hoe Saturday
morning in a rubber suit, and when Steve
told his story of entering the river just
above the brink and getting out to the
centre everybody laughed at him. 1t
was looked upon as thin fake" but
just how it WAS worked was not known
until this morning. John Rose, the well
known engineer, and John Lally, iremen
of the Maid Of the Mist, without at the
time knoWning of whom the party con-
sisted, witnessed nearly every movement.
The steamer was mcoirs during the night
at her Canadian wharf st the foot Of the
hill up which BrOdie Fas brought after
his alleged trip over ovsr the cataract.
Ross had come business at the top of the
bank Friday night about o'clock, and on
coming up the hill passed four men going
down, who, from his description, were the
Brodie party. Three o. the men had each
Q large bundle, one CT which was round
and looked like large hoop or band sim
liar to the one used on Brodie's suit.
About twenty minutes later, while stand
ing at the top of the hill, he saw the same
party come back up the hill. Instead Of
coming over TO the sidewalk they kept
along the edge of the bank under the shade
of the bushes aud went on towards Clifton.
Their bundles had disappeared.
John Lally, the fireman on the steam
er, while wheeling coal about 6 o'clock
Saturday morning, saw four men walking
down the hill. About twO-thirds Of the
way down the road makes half.circle
bend, and at this point the men left the
road and went into the bushes Shortly
afterWard5 a wagon came to the foot Of
the hill, turned around, went to the bend
and stopped, Then the four men emerged
from the bushes and the smallest climbed
into the wagon, followed by one Of the
others, who commenced covering him with
blankets. Lally called Ross out on the
dock, and he at once recognized the party
as the same that had come down the hill
and left the handles the night before.
Two or three bundles we're then put into
the wagon, the other men got in, and
when everything was in readiness the
man wrapped in blankets lay back in the
arms of his companion and the driver
started up the hill and toward Clifton.
Before reaching the top the party passed
a son of Capt. Carter and told him they
had Brodie, who had just gone over the
Falls The bend in the road is fully
three-fourths of mile from the Falls, to
reach which would require an hours hard
climbing over the rOcks; still the party oi
four, one of whom wrs without BrOdie,
was not down the bank longer than
twenty minutes, just about long enough
for Ledger to take a dip in the river and
for Brodie 10 take of bis clothing and be
wound with cotton batting.

Indignation In Baltimore Over q Grossly
Exaggerated Story.
BALTIMORE, September THE story
printed in the Sun about the Johns Hop
kins University has caused much indigna-
tion among the friends Of that institution
in this city, and the feeling would be
stronger were it not for the fact that the
University is at present closed and the pro-
fessors and students have not yet returned
from their vacations. The impression de-
signed to be created by the article as to the
financial condition and prospects Of the
University is strangely at variance
with the general feeling of jubilation
and exultation which greeted the an
nouncement made by President Gilman at
the close of the last session that the guar
antee fund of 100000 voluntarily sug-
gested by some friends of the University
ad been readily aud easily made up and
the institution could 90 on ia ito work
without contraction even if the Baltimore
and Ohio railroads dividends were passed
for three years to come. OF course, should
the stock of that road prove utterly WORTH
less, the University would ultimately be
in bad way, rs the greater part Of the
University endowment is inves. ed in Bal
timOre and Ohio stock. But such mis-
fortune is not contemplated, and the Uni
versity could sell its stock on the market
to-day and stll have good endowment.
