THREDIsM RAMPANT IN BUFFALO.

William F. Sheehan has been renomnated
for the Assembly by the Democrats OF the ISL
Eric District The mere statement OF the 1aco
that Mr.. Shcehan was a leading member OF Uhe
Assembly Ceiling Committee is a demonstra-
tion of the dsgraceful nature OF this nomna-
tion. II is an insult to every man in the dis
trict since it is proposition to reward instead
&c nunish gross and ineXcusable inhdehty to
nubIic duty. Sheehan, by his own admissions
before the Assembly committees that examiner
him. shamefully betrayed the interests OF the
State as they were involved in the construction
of the ceiling a condition OF things was
brought to light by the Investigations OF last
winter which excited the indignation OF every
citizen who does not side with public plum
derers Owing TO the fact that the members
Of the Ceiling Committee altogether failed to
discharge the important duty intruSted 70 thcir
hands. raScaIly contractors found no dlihculty
in robbing the taxpayers of thousands OF dol
lars. In response to public and party sent-
ment the Republicans refused to renominate
any of the Republican members Of the Ceiling
Committee. TO man they were sent into
retirement. If the Democrats who manage the
marty in the Tst Erie District had been equally
intent upon serving the common welfare they
would have sent the disg1aced Sheehan TO the
rear But no. They exhibited the same con-
tempt for the people as Hill exhibited at SYRIA
cuse when he dictated the nomination of two
other Democrats who were involved IN the
ceiling scandal-ControIler Wemple and At
tOrney General Tabor.
1t ought to be easy to defeat Sheehan. There
ought to be popular uprising against him in
the district quite Independent Of party lines.
Erie County cannot afford to send such man
to Albany. She owes it to her good name to
afford him no further opportunity to misrepre-

The Coroners jury which is investigating
the Feeks case made little additional prog
ress yesterday. 1t was finally determined that
the four wires through which the unfortunate
lineman met the fatal shock belonged to the
Metropolitan Telephone Company in whose
offices the effects of the disturbance OF the
electric current were Immediately noticed. Ac-
cording to the testimony Of the companys em-
ployes, however, all efforts to discover where
the telephone wires crossed the higher tension
ones of some electric-Gghting system were a
complete failure. All external evidence oil
such junction seems to have been destroyed,
and the Coroner will probably have long hunt
before he can fix the responsibility for Feeks's
death where it rightly belongs.

To-day is the last opportunity for those who
desire to vote at the coming election in Brook
Ign to register their names at the proper poll
ing places. Many have evidently put off this
obvious duty to the last day, as the number
recorded thus fan is short Of that Of two years
ago. Not few, no doubt Of these procrasti-
majors will be prevented, by unforeseen cir
cumstances from registering at all, and it be-
hooves every good Republican, therefore, who
has not already done So to make all things give
way tot day to this imperative obligation, so that
his party may be in a position to poll full
vote against the ring rule that burdens our

General Hartranft was one Of the most gallant
and meritorious Of the volunteer officers of the
War, and his services to the State since 1865
have been conspicuous and important He
leaves behind him an unbemished military and
civil record. Too great praise, especially,
cannot be given to his successful reorganiza-
ton of the Pennsylvania National Guard, which
under his care has grown to be a wonderfully
effective military organization.

NJ. Ferry indirectly saddles upon England
the responsibility for the occupation Of Tunis
by the French He explains that his Minis
try took that step after the seizure of Cyprus
and that the British Government anticipated it,.
That is to say, Lord Beaconsfeld, by his ag-
gressive Mediterranean policy, involved the
necessity for the French advance in Tunis as a
counterpoise. Certainly the French overweight
ed the English in this game Of annexation, for
Tunis was worth several islands like Cyprus.

The Great Kolinoor Diamond.

The famous Kohinoor diamond, or
''Alountain of Light" which, according:
to dispatch, Queen Victoria has been
asked to restore to its rightful owner,
Prince Dhulccp Singh, who was recently
married to an English lady in Paris, is
one of the great jewels of the world:
During hundreds of years it has been
looked upon with supcrsttious reverence
by the IIindoos, who believed that its
possession carries with it the sovereignty
of India. On the other hand, it has been
regarded an omen of ruin and disaster,
and its history shows that every sovereign
owning it up to Victoria lost either his
life or his empire. II belonged to the
Nlogul dynasty of rulers, but there is n
tradition that, before it shonc in the Pea
cock throne, it was owned, countless ages
before, by the neurological Pandoos At
all events, sovereign has been stealing it
from sovereign for nearly thousand
years. The court circles of London
would, Of course, be shocked ut the ap-
plication of this term to the method by
which Her Majesty acquired the gem, but
1t is the very plain language of Prince
Dhulcep Singh to the Empress of India.
cit will be useless for me, he writes,
''to demand the restoration of my king
dom, swindlcd from me by your Govern
ment, but which hope shortly, by the
aid of Providence, to rctakc from my
robbers. But my diamond, the Kohl
moor, | understand, is entirely at your
own disposal. Therefore, believing your
Majesty to be the most religious body
that your subjects pray for every Sunday,
l do not hesitate to ask that this gem be
restored to me or else that Il fair price be
paid for it to me out of your privy
purse. Queen Victoria has not yet re-
piled to this polite request for restitution,
but even should Dhulecp be successful in
getting his kingdom back there is not
much probability That he will ever see his
diamond again unless he receives an in
vitation to Windsor Castle The mag
niiiccnt gem is, it is needless to say, part
OF the spoils of India. 1t was brought to
England about 1850 in the Mcdca, sloop.

The AzOres.

The Azorc Islands extend in an oblique
line from northwest to southeast, between
the parallels 81 degrees and 40 degrees
north latitude and between % degrees
and 81 degrees west longitude. Geo
graphically they may be divided into
three groups; the first, or eastcrly group,
comprises ST. Michaels and St. Mary's;
the second, or central group, contains
Tcrceira, Graciosa, St. George, Pico
and Fayal; while the third, or westerly
group, consists Of the lonely little islands
of Flores and Coryo. They are all very
small places; very good walker might
almost go around the biggest of them in
n duy. Every inch of them, with the
exception of II curious little bit of st.
NIary's, has been fused and burned and
charrcd out of all resemblance to any
thing we have in this part of the world
save forge heap or Stag hill. Each lit
tie island presents solid front of hard,
black lava against the ravages of the great
ocean which thunders 1T the base of
cliffs and prccipices hundreds of feet
high. Even on the stillcst day the black
rocks arc edged with an cver-moving
fringe of white surf, which leaps up
against their obduratc face or sullenly
rolls in among the cavcrns Mt their base.
Marvelously fertile, too, are these islands;
almost anything will grow there if it can
but manage to get shelter from the vio-
lencc of the winter winds. The hills of
pumicc and cinders arc green to their
very tops with cedar and juniper and
trec-heath; the lower lands and less ex-
posed places grow rich crops Of maize
and grain, beans, tobacco and sweet
potatoes; in every little glen may be
seen the bright green shicld-shapcd leaves
of "enhamo," together with enormous
pendent fronds, six and eight feet long of
the Woodwardia fern, springing from a
carpet ankle deep, of the densest and
greencst lycopodium. The lava walls
which line the roads and mark off the
fields are green and gray with moss and
lichcn. Here and there are broad banana
leaves, and the crumbled leaves of
"nispcra" peer above waving rows of
cane stalks. The islands are rich in all
manner of kindly fruits. The vine and
fig tree struggle in all directions over the
stony sides of Pico; there are pumpkins
and pineapplcs, passion flower fruit and
pomcgranates; the peaches are rs plenti-
ful as the blacllbcrrics, and oranges and
apricots are to he had for the asking

Horace G. Wilcox, President of the
Mcridcn Britannia Company, is one OF
the richest men in Connecticut. Like the
late jim Fisk, he began life as n tin ped
dlcr. The other day Mr.. Wilcox tried
to perpetratc little joke on Nathan Fem,
Il Yankee matchmaker of the old fashioned
sort Calling in at Matchmaker Fcnn's
shop, Mr.. Wilcox pulled out brass-
plated lead paper weight, cast in imita-
ton Of watch.
"There, Citizen Fenn," said he, rs he
laid it on the counter, "is watch thinl,
n good deal of. If you will make it run
I'll give you $40" And with that left
the shop, chuckling glcefully.
The matchmaker was not to be easily
stumped. lie Immediately set to work,
followed out the lump of lead, inserted
set of old works, attached pair oil
leather hinges to the case, made crystal
of a dark-lantern lens, and attached to
the whole business q chain, the links OF
which were ingeniously constructed OF
peach stones. Thus armed he broke into
the Office of the Britannia factory the
next morning and laid the wonderful
watch on Mr.. Wilcox's desk. The latter
didn't say II word, but drew his check fol
$40, while the score OF clerks, led by
Robert M. Wilcox, husband of the
poctess of passion, who happened to be
present, giggled outright. Yor1

HOW TO MEASURE SOCKS.

A young man stepped up to the counter
of one of our furnishing stores the other
evening, and called for pair of socks
''Bc sure that you get them large
enough, " said he, "for when they are too
small they always wear through the toes. "
eyes sir, !" replied the polite clerk, ''I'll
get them right; will you please hold out
your hand?" 81 said socks, not gloves, a"
answered the young man, somewhat sur
priscd. 81 know what you said" con-
tinued the clerk, "but want to sec your
hand" The customer held out his hand
and doubled up his fist as directed. The
clerk took one of the socks from the box,
wrapped the foot around the list and
guaranteed perfect fit 81 am just as
sure it will fit you as though measured
your foot, said the clerk, ''as the dis
lance around the fist is always the length
of the foot. A salesman who knows his
business always looks Mt mans hands
and in that way knows the size of the
sock he wants"
