the Three Americas delegates, Mr.. Blaine

Col. Reilly's military bill got through the
house yesterday, and it had very good
majority back of it. Col. Reilly has worked
faithfully for this bill, and if it gets through
the Senate it will add great deal to his
reputation as legislator. He was aided
earnestly and effectively in getting the
measure through the house by Capt Gordon
and MIR. Clifton, and the prospect is that
it will be passed by the Senate. The
amount appropriated is not quite as large
as it was hoped it would be, out it will do
for beginning. If the bill becomes a law
the necessity of assisting tn, military will
have been recognized by the legislature, aud
that is great point gained.

A sensational Can1paion.

Ohio is great state for red-hot political
campaigns. The one in progress there now
is fully up to the average in sensa-
tionalsm. Charges of corruption against
prominent men on both sides are not want
ing. Some days ago Mr.. Campbell, the
democratic candidate for governor, ex-
ploded bomb in the republican camp by
reading letter from Mr. George r. Topp.
in which the fact was disclosed that Mr..
Topp, in his official capacity as a member
OF the state board of public affairs, by ap-
polntment of Gov. Foraker, proposed to
contractor plan by which he (Topp) would
make money out of a public contract The
republicans could not deny that the letter
was authentic, but they attempted to
smooth over the affair by saying that Topp
was temporarily insane when he wrote it.
This was very lame defense, and the
people refused to exonerate Topp. Poor
Tops proposed transaction was injuring
Foraker's cause, and the republicans saw
that something else must be done. They
charged Mr.. Campbell with having been
pecuniarily interested in a bill he intro
duced in congress to provide certain kind
or ballot-box for government elections.
They went 80 far as TO print an alleged con-
tract between Mr.. Campbell and the ballot
box company. Mr.. Campbell denied in a
speech that he was concerned in money
way in the ballot-box bill, but he said
nothing about the alleged contract. In an
interview, however, he said that he would
put himself upon record on that point, and
that he expected to show that the sigma
lures were forged, and by whom thew
were forged. He stated that Gov. For
aker's brother was a member of the
ballot-box company, and that the governor
had used his influence as a public officer to
have the boxes used in Michigan elections
These sensations are stirring both parties
in Ohio to the depths, and no doubt they
will have their effect upon the election. If
Mr. Campbell succeeds in showing that the
signatures to the alleged contract were
forged, and fastens the forgery upon promi-
nent republicans, the republicans will real
ize that they made great mistake in their
efforts to offset the effects of the Topp letter

PRINCE eIsMARcx.s DOG.
The Iron ChanceliOr's Attachment for His
InmOus Keichshnnd.

The Iron ChnnceliOr's Attachment for Ills
Famous Keichshund.
Prince Bismarck is sad at heart for
the loss of an old friend. Man of iron
though he may be, the Chancellor has
attracted and returned an Affection
has "lovcd and lost" It is true that
the object was only n dog; but the
huge, ill-favorod Bavarian animal,
whose death has recently befallen, is
likely TO DO long associated i'm tho
memories Of men with the most famous
of the Kaiser's subjects. In Berlin tho
dog was we'll known, but i'm town he
did not always follow the Chancellor.
He was regarded more as an appanage
OF the 'Pomeranian squire" side OF the
Princes life than Of ibis sitter official
encourage. At Varzin or Friedrichsruh,
however, the two were inseparablo.
No sooner was the most absolutely
necessary business OF the morning
despatched than the Reichskanzler
sailed off with 1.-The Reichshund'' at
his heels, and for the rest OF the day
the long light coat and the battered
felt 'three-master" hat of the famous
statesman were not objects at which
curious tourists peeped more eagerly
than the great dog which followed him
everywhere, on horseback or on foot.
In a score of pictures and photographs
he and his collar appear, and
in the well-known painting of the
Chancellor and his family the dog is to
be seen at his masters knee, with the
Princes hand on his neck, being indeed
the most natural member OF that eX-
tremely bureaucratic, full-uniiormed
group. The affection which subssted
between the man and the dog has
formed the subject of not a few moral
disquisitions. Stern in every relation
of his public life, and surrounded by
multitudes OF admirers and some fiat
tercrs, the illustrious head Of tho I'M
perial Government has few friends.
Like other leaders Of similar caliber,
he stands alone. But in his domestic
relations the Pomeranian squire is an
other man. His correspondence with
his sister affords a pleasing glimpse Of
the softer side of a hard character.
Here we learn how he liked the
boned sausage, whether Johanna is
getting over her teething, and are en-
tertained with a lengthy account Of
little Bits disordered digestion and Of
the new governess growing inGrmities.
From Norderney we have a rollicking
description of the guests at the table
d'hote-the Goldfish, beans and mutton
on alternate days, and of the Russian
officer whose long thin body and short
legs put him in mind OF a boot-jack.
To this human side OF Prince Bismarck's
life the "Reichsbund' belonged, and rs
such the Bcrliucrs, apt to weep on very
slight provocation are at present la
menting the deceased Bayarian. Lon

The question of paying The Gov
ernor of Michigan $4,000 per year
instead of 81 900, as now, will be sub
mitted to the voters at the SPRING
election. 1t is a matter that should
be given candid consideration, that
the voters may be prepared TO east
their ballots on the right side-in
favor of the proposition. In order
to affofd to be Governor of Michigan
to-day a man must be wealthy, which
is an effective bar to many able and
deserving but poor men accepting
the nomination. This ought not so
to be, and we believe intelli gence and
good judgement will prevail in April
next and that the amendment will
carry by respectable majority. We
have it from a thoroughly reliable
source that Gov. Louoe's expenses the
first two years he served the state
wore more than $4,000, and all who
know the Governor know that he is
very economical, everyday sort OF
man. The idea that is prevalent in
some quarters, that the notary public
fees go to the Governor, is erroneous.

a Strange Malady Which sometimes At
tacks GraVc-Diggers.
A strange sort Of mental affection,
known as "corpse-quake," has often
been found TO exist among grave-dig-
gers. 1t is no uncommon occurrence
that "A person employed in cemeteries
for many years is suddenly afflicted
with a shaking similar to that expert
enced by persons suffering from ague.
y grave-digger who has been en-
ployed at Cypress Hills cemetery for
fifteen years was seen yesterday by a
reporter.
II know Of a number OF such cases"
said he. Ten years ago we had three
diggers here who had worked together
for quite while. One of the three,
who used TO be very lively chap and
always willing and ready to tell good
yarn, became very quiet all at once.
His companions noticed this and, think
ing that Joe was not feeling well lot
him alone. There was to be a funeral
in the afternoon and we went over to
dig the grave. As soon as Joe stuck
his spade in the ground he began To
shake. His companions told him 10 stop
working if he didn't feel VOL, but Joe
paid no attention and continued with
his work until the job had been fin
ished. Three on four more graves were
made that day, and every time Joe put
down his spade hc shook The other
two tried 10 make fun of him by imitat-
ing his shaking while 1T work.
A few days later JOo's compan-
ions had the corpsc-quakc, too, and a
week later had TO stop work entirely.
81 thought that the three men Ind
contracted ma aria, nut, strange to say,
they never would nave that peculiar
shake while away from the cemetery.
Joe came back to us, but every time ho
would pick up spade and try TO work
that old trouble would come back. We
insisted upon his giving zap tho job, as
he was falling away. He remained at
home about week, and his wife told
us he was getting better again, when
one day his boy mentioned the word
spade in his fathers presence. 1t was
