Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-05-27
Something Local, to Look AFTER.

Mr.. Andrews was in Pittsburg during the
late struggle in which the Quay forces failed
to capture the county organization from C. l.
Magee. He had an opportunity at that time to
see something of local politics, and may have
gathered in some valuable pointers, though
his association was entirely with but one fac
tion. 1t may or may not have struck him that
spirit of compromise is good thing to cult.
vate, but if it hasn't the fact will be pressed
upon him before the campaign is ended. The
Magee forces are particularly interested in the
success 0f the local ticket. some Of them, how
ever, more SO than others. The friends of Arch
Rowand are more than little interested in 1t.
They are preparing to show that those who
are interested In the success Of the State ticket
must support the local ticket as whole If they
expect majority in Allegheny county for their
candidate. The greater part of the opposition
to Rowand comes from the friends of Quay,
and Rowand's friends want it understood that
1t will be cut for cut 1t is reported that sew
eral Republican members Of the Legislature
who feel aggrieved at certain rulings of
Speaker Boyer, and who feel especially ag-
grieved because, they say, he went on the noor
of the House and tried to lobby the second
Pittsburg gauger bill through, will help the
effort to reduce the majority for him for State
Treasurer. But they are not trumpetlng their
intentions abroad. and the memory of the COM
promise by which the gauger bill was not
pressed to passage and BY which they were in
duced to vote for the Judges salary sincrease
bill, may cause them to go slow. 1t is some
thing, however, for Mr.. Andrews to see to.

which he told only to his father.
After this my brother rearranged his
affairs so as to provide for you, differ
emily from what he had In an earlier
will, and to the last day of his life
he never ceased his search for you,
and almost his last words to me were.
"Be good to little Elsa" When his
will was read it was found that he
had left the income of an hundred
thousand dollars to you as long as
you lived or remained o widow, and
in case of your death before your son
became of age, an ample provision
was made for him, to complete his
education and start him in BUSINESS"
"How kind! how kind" murmured
the grateful listener through the tears
that fell like rain. "If could have
only known that there were any in
the wide world who were even think
ing kindly of me, my trouble would
not have been so hard to bear, but
poor, friendless, eliminated, and per-
secuted, ! had reached the limit of
endurance when Nellie saved me.
Was it Nellie? was it woman and
not an angelo" A sudden smile Lit
up the white feared face, smile that
called wildly before the elder woman
the bright young girl who used to
come like sun beam into her sisters
sick room.
YES it was Nellie, and no Angel
though most loving and tender
hearted woman" was replied with
an answering smile, "but now you
must go to bed. 1t is past midnight
and with the old year you must leave
all thoughts Of want or hard work,
and all troubles and sorrows or if you
may not leave these, you shall no
longer bear them alone"
"Can it be possible such reality
is mine, when only two or three hours
ago, was so hedged in, that 1 could
see no way out but by death? And
I love life so! and have never lost
hope until tonight. Even now L can
not see how 1 am to escape my tor
mentor, but if you assure me that
Nellie and Arthur will befriend me,
L shall not despair"

Marriage Engageme nts.

From the New York Sun.
Perhaps this young man - we as.
su me it is man - asks in all limo.
cence, but we can not be sure of it,
We must primarily consider the ap-
plication as coming from one who con-
templates little game" A
Reader" writes:
Will you please inform me if young gentle.
man and young lady are en- gagged to be mar.
ried, and one ceases writing, is the engage.
ment broken legally by the one who ceases to
write ?
We should say not. The door is
not to be LETT open for any such COM
bination, on the part Of an engaged
man who would like to get away,
as taking too long o vacation in parts
unknown, and wearying his forlorn
fiancee into stoppage of CORES
pondence, and thus putting legal
stamp upon the rupture Of their en-
gagement. Engagements, like mar
riages, are very business-like affairs.
They are not made or broken upon
any theory of law. They begin with
fervid application for possession of
VIC loIululHo hcdIt, anu Gucy are
ended by the cold refusal to take it
at the appointed time. Letters are
but the natural accident of this bliss
full relation. These may be more or
they may be less. They may be in
spired by fervor or they may be dull
with indifference, but they do not
make the match. Our friend can
write or not, as he chooses, or he may
receive letters from his sweetheart or
not, according to his fortune. But he
is not off with this love of his until
some more conclusive formality oc-
ours than the mere interruption of
correspondence. But let us consider
the question from the understanding
of this young mans fidelity Should
he think that his sweetheart desires
to throw him over, or has she thrown
him over, in the eye of the law, by
not sending him any more letters?
OF what use is romantic fiction if ii
is not studied to better advantage by
those in need of it's lessons than it
has been studied by our friend?
In literature, situations of an en-
gagement broken by miscarried
letter are thick as book shelves in
libraries. The world of the imagi-
nation is full of them. Letters mis-
carry through a defective mail SER
vice, or are suppressed by an obdur-
ate parent, or are purloined by a
jealous rival, and the lovely vision of
future matrimony fades through the
disappointment and modification of
the lover with whom they fail to con-
meet. So it may be in the case of our
friend. His girl, we feel sure, has
not stopped through the failure of her
love for him; but something is wrong
atsome other point, just as so many
novels have il.
We trust also that the usual termi-
nation of such plots in fiction will
finally apply in this case. May the
real difficulty be. found out it is too
late, and, with re-enlightened and
hearts, may this intended union,
legally established at last, be forever
joyous and permanent.

pIMmIG,s ACQUITTAL.

The conclusion of the trial OF
DINING, the San Francisco BOOK
accent. on the charge OF murder
makes one of the most sensational
and complicated criminal cases ever
known in the annals of court prac-
tice in the United States.
It was the ofr-shoot of the kill
inc of Mrs. Milton Bowers, and
while DINING was finally acquitted
by a jury the public will always
h,,;ave that the man was the tool OF
DR. Bowers and if not the principal
one OF the accessories OF Benhayon's
mysterious death.
Everyone believes that Benhayon
met Lis death by foul means and
.hat a confession was forged tC
cover the track of murder and save
the neck OF Bowers VINO is i MAJ
of the most extraordinary fertility
OF invention and exhaustless re
sources.
We believe that if the sleep,
authorities Of the jail had KEEP
Mrs. Zensing away from Bower
and kept the proper watch that ia
clever conspiracy which resulted Il
Benhayon's death would never hay
been committed.
There is scarcely the shadow OF
doubt regarding the murder OF poo
Benhayon, but the work was don
with such consummate skill that Tn
best detectives were bailied "he
