Ha,...ad a candidate for the senate

CINCINNATI. Aug. Sin the course
of his speech Saturday night at the
reception rendered him by his friends,
Murat HaIstead said concerning his
candidacy for the senate.
Touching the inquiry as to whether L
am candidate for the United States
Senate, | do not wish to have that
urged upon the people. That is a
matter for consideration after the
republican victory which l confidently
expect in November by the trium plant
reelection of "A republican general as
sembly. do not think 1t possible for
the people of Ohio to permit the law
making power of the state to pass into
the hands of the democrats. There is
nothing in the recent history of the
party to warrant such action. When
this republican legislature is elected il
the republicans in it shall think that L
would be a good representative man
and that in their good judgment it
would be good thing to elect me a
senator of the United States, l should
regard it as a great honor and attempt
to perform the duties of the office. to
the best of my ability. But the OLD
ject to be aimed at, however, and
which can not be too cleary and strong
ly stated,i is not my individual triumph,
but to make sure that Ohio shall be
hereafter represented in the
senate of the United States by two
republicans. That is an object worthy
of any republicans ambition. No
personal ambition should be permitted
to Interfere with that object. 1t is my
hope to win clean republican victory
in straight republican fight and to
make the fight ON the ground of sus-
| tanning the national administration OF
President Harrison and the state ad-
minstration of Governor Foraker.

about the crime. None of the officials
would confirm this. however. A little
later Judge Baker issued writ of
habeas corpus directed to Chief Hub
bard to release Martin Burke from the
cell in the Harrison street station in
which he now reposes. This writ was
obtained by Lawyer Kennedy of APP
pleton, Wisconsin, who has so far been
refused permission to see his client. It
is returnable at o'clock this after
noon, but was issued with the under
standing that if the officials permitted
Kennedy to see Burke before that hour
the matter should be dropped.

which had been detached by the rob-
bers and left under guard of the other
three. After going half a mile they
compelled the engineer to get off the
locomotive and bring pick to force
open the door of the express car. Ex-
press Messenger Marsh, seeing what
was up, closed the door to his car and
put out the lights, first secreting all
the express packages but three. The
robbers, coming to his car, ordered him
to open it and then fired into it. The
engineer hammered away with his
pick until he got the door partly open,
when torch was pushed into the
opening and a revolver poked
into the car and pointed at
March, who was told to open mp or be
killed. Marsh opened the door and
three packages were stolen, but the
Pacific Express company people say
very little money was secured. The
robbers then went to the mail car and
compelled Route Agent Wolcott to
open his car. He had hidden all his
registered matter but one letter under
a sack and turned his lights out. The
robbers got that one package and then
opened the mail pouches and scattered
the contents over the floor. After do
ing the work they ordered the engineer
to put out the torch and pull out.
When they left the authorities in the
neIghboring counties were notified and
are in pursuit. 1t is said that the
total amount stolen is less than 81, 600.

Burke on His Way 10 Chicago.
FARGO, OAK, Aug. 5.-Martin
Burke will probably never forget his
trip through Manitoba and Dakota.
AT every station where the train
stopped there was crowd waiting to
catch a glimpse of him. At Grafton,
which is only few miles this side of
the line, there were at least three hum
bred men, the most of them apparently
Irishmen, who boarded the sleeper and
demanded admittance. Many were
persistent in a demand to get into the
car, telling Lieutenant Cross that if
they could catch a0glimpse of the pris-
oner they would kill him with as little
hesitancY as they would a. rat. ''Dr.
Cronin," said one, was a cousin of
mine, and | would avenge his death
if l could only get a chance" He drew
revolver and pointed into the smok-
ing department of the car where Burke
was in charge of the officers, but before
he had time to distinguish faces in the
department Lieutenant Cross hustled
him out of the car and his place was
taken by curious Dakotian. Burke
heard the rangers threats, but he was
as cool as if he had been safe behind
the bars of Sheriff Watson's jail. II
might as well be shot in Dakota as
hanged in Chicago" he said, when he
heard the threats. Notwithstanding
this he was, it is asserted, badly fright
ened.

HOW TO PLANT LIMA BEANS.

It is almost a universal pracJlce in New
Jersey to plant lima beans by thr,sting
them into the ground with the eye down.
ward, farmers claiming that the bean is
not SO likely to rot and the plants appear
earlier than when the seed Is set
otherwise. The idea in planting lima
beans in this way probably originated in
some one observing that when a bean
sprouts both root and stem start from the
eye and the bean is lifted above ground
the two catyledons becoming the first
pair of leaves, usually called the seed
leaves. This is true with all species and
varieties of the bean, while with peas,
which belong to the same family of plants,
the seeds remain in the ground Or
below the surface when they throw. up
. new shoot. We have always practlsed
planting lima beans the SAINT way that
we do other kinds, that is, drop them
on the ground and cover them with a
hoe, and we have yet to discover that it
made any difference whether seed was
covered when lying on the side or set up
j on it's edge. Try a row OF limas next
| year, planting each alternate hill in the
row different, and see If those with eyes
down succeed any better than those with
eyes up; or on the side, laying the bear

Largest Area Of Plate Glass.

determined to have the largesr~area OF
Mate glass in their show window Of any
In the country, and sent their order to q
great crystal establishment in Paris.
when the question of shipment Was
brought into the bargain no steamship or
sailing vessel could be found which could
take the huge plates of glass on board
through its matches. Therefore the pur-
chase abroad was abandoned. Then came
the suggestion that the glass could DC
manufactured in Indiana. The contract
was made with Indiana manufacturers,
and the glass was perfected; but then
arose another difficulty. The great crystal
name must be transported upright In
frame. The height of the bridges above
the railroads was found, and it was dis.
covered that no railroad in the country
would thus transport it to the Hub
! Consequently the ambitious firm wa
obliged to abandon their project, ane
contented themselves with peace-nea

A Queer Cure for SuRstrOke.

Senior Catarsi, a fruit dealer who does
business on the south side OF Fulton
market, New York, told an EcenSng san
reporter recently how victims Of sunstroke
were treated in sunny Italy. "Take the
patient and prop him up straight in a
chair, then fill a glass with ice water,
place a towel over the top and press It
down on the persons head, holding 1T SO
tight that the water won't run out. All
the heat in the body then becomes con-
centrated in the head, and is gradually
drawn out by the water. The
water soon grows warm, but the
glass must not be removed until it bolls.
This is not a fairy story I'm telling you.
If the glass is kept on the head long
enough YOU can see the water bubbling
inside. The length Of time required de-
pends ON the seriousness of the case. The
worse the sunstroke the quicker the water
bo;ls. tt is q sure cure" Mr.. Catsrsl il
