WHERE IS DR. CROWN?
The Chicago Mystery Is Not Yet Un.
 travelled.
POLICE NOT WORRIED.
WIFI Turn Up All Right-Alexander Sullivan Brought into the Caso-The Hair Found is Not His.


 Hair Found is Not His.
 CHICAGO May 7.-The fate or where abouts of Dr. P. H. Cronin, who has been missing since Saturday evening from his residence, 47O North Clark street, is still 6 mystery.
 Although the city detectives, Pinker- tons men and the entire police of Lake View have been working increasingly on the strange case, no further clews have been found that might lead to possible solution of the affair.
 It was reported that Dr. Cronin was seen yesterday in Martin McNultys sa- loon, on Wells street. Investigation failed to verify this rumor, however.
 Mrs. T. T. Conklin, sister of the mis- weeping, was pacing the floor of her cosey rooms in the Windsor theater block, occasionally wringing her hands In her emotion when reporter called upon her.
 "We have heard nothing new since Sunday night" said Mrs. Conklin, "and can only wait and hope that our worst now for Pinkerton detective who is going out to Lake View"
 'Who do you hold responsible for mak- ing away with the doctor?" "IN tell you what Dr. Cronin has often said: If am ever foully dealt with, Alexander Sullivan will be the man who will instigate It.
 "This is not what say, but what my brother said, and feel it my duty to enemy and has been at the bottom of every attempt to blacken his character" The question of Dr. Cronin's habits was gently touched upon. ''He Is not drinking man," said Mrs. Conklin. It is absurd to say so. He would sometimes take a drink with a friend on the way home from meetings, but he did not frequent saloons" MT. Sullivan was found in his office in l the Opera house building and he was told what Mrs. Conklin had said. MT. Sulli- l van refused to refute the accusation and regarded the affair as too frivolous to mention. He acted rather nervously, however, when he heard what Dr. Cronin l had said.
 1 "Such trash as that is too silly to reply 1 to-" MT. Sullivan said. "I don't take any 1 interest in pr. Cronin's disappearance and don't want to say anything about the l affair. If the man cannot be found 1t is l nothing to me. But as for my being ac- countable for his disappearance 1t Is l absurd"
 Mir. Buck, barber at 474 North Clark l street, said he shaved Dr. Cronin every 1 day, and if the hair found in the trunk al Lake View, together with the bloody cotton, was his, he would be able to rec. ognize it. "He had very peculiar hair and would know it any place." said MT. l Buck. This was told to Captain Villiers of the Lake View police, who took tuf1 1 of hair to the barber, and the latter 1 without hesitation, said 1t was not Dr l Cronin's.
 Those who know Cronin well don' seem to be worried about his disappear pearance. The police do not seem to b. worrying themselves unnecessarily ovel the mystery" and while they say noth ing, they leave 1t to be inferred that the1 think he will turn up all right.

M. ALPHAND, PRESI.
 DENT OF THE

EXPOSITION. eA F o D SIo II III Paris followed European campaign in which two mighty armies of the same race met in fratricidal conflict, and the momentary Hull in military operations did not deceive the nations. France well knew that peace was cuckoo song soon to be silenced by the cannon of contend ing hosts. Equally disturbed was the state of Europe when the second exposl- ton was opened in 1878. The Balkan campaign had ended with thu conquering Russians at the- gates of Copstantinople. England, summoning the Sepoys to Malta and dispatching her fleet of iron clads through the Daruanelles, had given warning that the convention dictated at San Stefano must be revised by a Euro pean congress. France was not disposed to join her Crimean ally in a new war for the defense of the crumbling Turkish throne. The shops in the boulevards no longer contained cartoons representing the French zouave and the English infan- tryman as good comrades drinking bump CTS each to the others health. There was no panic in Paris but London was ap- pretending war, and Berlin and Vienna were despairing of the maintenance of peace. In this year of grace there is no cloud so large as mans hand in tho European sky. Peace is real, and not an illusion.

The fact that the Northern Repuhli.
cans look so coldly on the various
propositions 10 break the Solid South,
indicates that they may have concluded
that sectional line is the safest one for
them TO fight on. All of which agrees
with our idea that as long as Southern
leaders rule The Democratic party, so
long will the North be persuaded thai
the political line is Just the same as the
war line was.
The great principles Of the popular
party Of the people are the same North,
South, East and West; but the issue Of
low tariff against protection for mo-
nopoly will not get fair trial so long as
the Monopoist Protection party can
point TO the Democratic leaders as
Rebels" and call the roll OF the con
gressional committees 10 show that the
majority of the members are Southern
men
This Is not just, but il is fact, and
the people who have been crushed by
the hard hand of war ought to recognize
it and wisely oct on it to the end, but
the present generation may bring them
peace and prosperity.
Southern politicians sometimes forget
that the success OF the National Demo.
cracy relieves the South Of lls difficulties
and that that should be the objective
point IN our politics, whether the North
crn Democrats gain It for US or we do il
ourselves.

From WEST, JOHNSTON " Co
This is a collection OF stories whose
thread is Of the slightest They treat of
social and political topics In a pleasant
Harriet Martineau style. The first, "The
Story Of lIappinolsnde, tells Of an ideal
community, the peace and prosperity Of
which is overturned by the sudden dis
covery of gold The easy acquisition Of
wealth corrupts the community, which ia
only brought back to its primitive state
Of happiness by the exhaustion of the

TON. BY RICHNRD HEATH DABNEy.
From WEST i JOHNSON
This book, written by a distinguished
young Virginian, is one Of the most in
teresting studies of chapter of history
that is particularly attractive to Ameri
cans. Its object Is as picturesque and
agreeable as It's historical quality is cor
rect, for 1t embodies an enlightened
scholars modern view of the subject. We
commend il to all classes of readers.
The comments Of the metropolitan pa
pets are extremely complimentary.

The idea OF the Republicans TO fly their
Kite with the advertisement of a new and
powerful navy is whimsically absurd,
after everybody has seen that the new
Secretary has wisely followed the plan
of Secretary Whitney. All praise TO
Secretary Tracey for doing that
but in good sooth 1t is
comical :. hear the horn blow foT the
glory of the G O. T. on that key, when
we all remember how the Republican
navy policy was dedicated to Jobs ana
contracts, and TO the personal profit
of the Chambers and other bosses
of the navy in the shalcyon days
Of jobbcry Do the modern pa
triots of the Republican party think
to blanket the history OF their party
with garment stolen from the Demo
cratic administration, and If so, can they
also paint the masks with the stolen
record of their opponents
We sincerely applaud every move
ment of the Republican administration
that reflects the honesty of good and
patriotic purpose, and always accept the
dictates of high and broad American
sentiment which should animate the PEG
pie and maintain high court of politi-
cal appeal that is above all party feeling
Bnt please, gentlemen Republicans, DO
not steal thunder from the only honest
administration that we have bad since
the close Of the war, and do be rea-
sonable if not charitable. and leave the
credit Of new navy policy TO the party
to which it justly belongs.
The Republican party is SO noted for
flching anything, from taxes on the ne
cessaries of life to the Presidency itself,
that long custom has dulled the popular
sense to It's wrong doing, and anything
good in il il like the pious Offering of
great sinner that makes people think OF
the instances of startling cases of re-
pentance. If the Republican party vol
unfairly put itself in the sackcloth and
ashes of repentance, and showed the
imitation of the good deeds of pious
Democrats there would be Dathos in the
thing. Blu, TO burglsrize the glory of
the Democratic administration in
claiming the credit of new
navy. after they sold out the old
one to jobbers and junk dealers, is
worse than Senator IIoar's story OF the
Kentucky Rebel who came after All
Office. and was told that If he would re-
turn like the repentant Prodigsl, the
fatted calf would be roasted for him, but
when ne cried aloud and deiiantlY TO
"bring out that veal it was crown on
the top of impudence that would not be
tolerated.
