The yeaie sisters, concert.

The Veale sisters made their second ap-
pearance in Woodsto wn at the Opera
House on Tuesday night, in an entertain.
ment for the benefit of Woodstown Lodge
of Good Templars. They were greeted by
a fair sized audience, and the programme
rendered was composed of a number of
m%eritorious selections. Miss Saidee, in
her Rotations, notieeably 1.-THE Gypsy
Flower Glrlo and the description of the
chariot race from "Ben Hnr," showed
much real talent and power. Among the
vocal selections should be mentioned the
quartette, Twilight Bells and the can
tata of 1.-THE ~Grasshopper,' which were
well rendered. Miss Jennie, in her imita-
tions of a canary bird, won merited APP
plause. The audience was a cold and un-
demonstratiye one, and was not calculated
to encourage the efforts of the young
ladies to any great extent. The lodge
cleared about $15 from the entertainment.

Dug up $4,000 in Notes.

A laborer named Devault, while at work
with his pick and shovel in grading Lin
coin Park, lust below Red Bank, Gloucester
county, on Saturday last dug up $50, 900 in
well-prescrved bank bills. Lincoln Park
comprises a large tract of land recently
purchased by Robert S. Patterson, the
well known First ward Democratic poll
tician and team owner of Philadelphia,
and other P~hiladelphians, who are inter
ested in building improvements in that
section of the state, and the work of
grading and excavation had but recently
begun. The money was ALI notes, paper
money issued by the Concord Bank of
New Hampshire many years ago. In the
same spot were found sixteen plates, sup
posed to have been the property of the
bank. Old residents say that during the
war a notorious bank robber named Sher-
man lived near the place on which the
money was found. He met his death
more than twenty. five years ago, while in
the cabin of a steamboat upon an excur-
sion to Cape May, a collision occurring on
the river between the steamboat and a
schooner. 1t is said that a claim has been
put in for the money on behalf of the Lin
coin Park Association, which owns the
ground. The money has since been found
to be counterfeits and is valueless.

MIXED up RESULTS.

The elections yesterday, while not involy-
ing any vital positions in national politics,
outside OF Ohio and Virginia, were good
deal split up. and appear to have been, in
general, closely contested. While the re-
suits cannot at this writing be exactly pre-
dicted in any Of the close contests, it looks
very much as if the Democrats have carried
off the honors of the battle field.
On the Pennsylvania State ticket the re-
result was such foregone conclusion that
very little attention will be paid to the re-
turns. In Ohio where the battle was a hard
fought one, the result is unquestionably
close. The indications are rather against
Foraker, with possibility that some of the
Republican ticket may be elected, while the
Legislature is in doubt. Virginia is prob
ably Democratic. and New Jersey has
elected Albeit. New York seems to have
stood by the Democracy and the ceiling
scandal.
In the local contest the cutting of tickets
was somewhat phenomenal. As The DIS
PATCH predicted on the one contest which
attracted public attention, the victory of
OOnnston Is only Questlon "a WdJoiAty'
Whether he gets 5000 or 10000 majority,
the significance of the election is the same.
1t is not necessary to refer at length to the
causes which produced this reversal of the
Republican nominations; but the moral is
worth setting down. 1t is that however
the machinery of politics may be induced to
ignore bad record, The voters of Allegheny
county are not ready to shut their eyes and
let partisanship foist bad official on them
in preference to good one, especially where
the administration of justice is involved.
The bearing of yesterdays election upon
national politics may not be vital, but it is
significant; and the inference from the re-
turns, 50 far as received, can hardly be very
pleasant to the national administration.

A SHARE OF THE PORK.

A recent letter from Senator Ingalls, on
the trust combinations, written by Senator
Ingalls,, of Kansas, shows that the talented
Senator has eminentlY correct principles on
the subject of combinations to raise the price
of the necessaries of life; but deems it highly
inconvenient to put them into operation.
Every combination Of that sort he declares
to be crime against society which should
be punished with heavy penalties, and the
Senator enters into specifications very peril
nently as follows:
Among the most villainous of these schemes
of corporate larceny is the Sugar Trust. Sugar
is of the necessaries of life like salt or air
and water. The thieves and robbers who have
got control Of the market, and put up the price,
ought to be sent to the penitentiary for life
Sugar should be free in order to make such
combinations impossible.
So far the Senator takes the most advanced
ground in favor of the rights of the common
people. But the example of the old citizen
who was in favor of prohibition, but "agin
It's enforcement" is too strong for him. He
recognizes the principle, and denounces the
violation of it in the strongest terms, and
then adds to the last sentence of the above
extract: "But free sugar would destroy the
sorghum industry of Kansas, by subjecting
it to competition which it cannot endure"
In other words, the Senator recognizes
that the purpose of the Sugar Trust is robbery
deserving of the severest punishment, and
that the protection of the public from rob-
berry can be secured by repeating the sugar
duties. But he is ready to condone the
crime, and let the robbery continue, because
the measure which would stop it would pre-
vent Kansas from getting its share of the
swag. That the Kansas industry could be
encouraged by bounty on raw sugar, with
out a partnership in the crime. makes no
difference to the Senator, because that would
be departure from the recognized methods.
To this complexion has the science of
political log-rolling brought our public men
at last

Washington Dispatch to New York Times.J
Mr.. Matthew Stanley Quay is expected in
Washington before the end of the week, and
Mr.. Christopher L. Magee will not be far be-
hind him. The arrival of these two men will
be matter of interest to the small army of
Pennsylvania place hunters who have not vet
been assigned to stalls at the public crib. for
each proposes to secure the Presidents aid in
the contest between them for the control of the
Republican party in Pennsylvania. It is hard
tage of lighting from the inside.
The first struggle will be over the postmaster
at Pittsburg, and here, too. Magee will find
Quay in the lead. Henry z. Ford who is
Magee's candidate, has the help of Representa-
tive Dalzell of the Pittsburg district who has
already recalled to General Harrison the lat
ter'S expressed conviction that Congressman
should have something TO say about the offices
in their districts. But Quay wants James 8.
Mexican to be PittsDurg's postmaster. and the
Senator has given notice to the President that
he is the possessor of a mailed hand" Gen.
eral Harrison has not announced his choice,
but McKean's friends appear to have informa-
tioD which makes them very confident that
Quay's wishes will be needed. They are equal
ly confident that, in the Quay-Magee struggle
for control of the Gubernatorial convention,
the administration will be behind the Senator.

PHYsIC For RRITnNs

The latest British syndicate that has
Topped into view has a most benevolent OBJ
ject. 1t has been organized to acquire the
principal patent medicines made in this
country. The immediate object of the Brit
ishers is, of course, to make money, to get a
safe investment for their idle millions, as
they are justified in believing the proprle-
tary rights to these medicines to be. In
fact, they are after Doodle, and have no idea
that they may confer blessing upon the
United States.
The benevoIence is there, though it may
not be visible to the British eye. 1t is the
intention of the syndicate after it has pur-
chased these medicines to manage the sale
thereof themselves. That is to say the
medicines will soon be known as Brit
ish goods Then before very long some
political speaker hard up for ammunition
will accuse some opponent of using British
pills and pOtiOns. OF course an anti-Brit-
ish-medicine party will gather around the
intelligent defender of native stomachs, and
it will become as dangerous for q public
man to buy bottle or box of the British
syndicate's stuff as to write confidential
letters to naturalized citizens.
But where does the benefit to the Ameri-
can people come in2 Enough, surely, in
the diminution of the use of patent cure-alls.
