NclltlOil I'D nominate the JclnO-
cratic Ticket Of 1880. gives oc-
casion for us to make a few
remarks upon the political
situation in Worcester.
The offices to be filed this
fall are as follows
Clerk of the Circuit Court.
Sheriff. State Senator, :; Mem
bcrs OF the Legislature. 5 Co.
Commissioners, Surveyor. /
Wrcckmaster.
The above list Includes al
Of the county officers with the
exception Of Register Of Wills,
Judges of the Orphans Court
and States Attorney.
Every true Democrat is en-
titled to cast 4 vote Il the
primaries held in his election
district on Saturday next. the
18th day of August for candi-
dates to be nominated at the
County Convention ON Tues
day following the primaries, in
the Court House in Snow Hill.
1t is the duty Of every good
Democrat to attend the pri.
marics and aftcrward to abide
by the action of the County
Convention. 1t does not pro
mote the welfare of the part,
to condemn its actions in con
vcntion ashas been done here
toforc, as there is always more
than one candidate for an of
tlcc, but only one can Sc
cure the regular : nomina-
ton and somebody and their
friends are naturally disap.
pointed. but the MESSENGER
would caution the disappointed
ones to be loyal to the Convcn-
ton and to the party of which
they are member. 1t may
come your turn next to receive
nomination and as the bcob(c
really don't want you any
worse than they do the other
man it is better to bear dcfca,
gracefully and good naturcdly
than To bear malice againS,
the man who outdistanccd YOU
in the race. Ii is a wcll-known
fact that there are several Re
publican leaders in this town
who have done everything in
their power To create diSsatiS
faction among those Demo
Gratis who are not educated and
do not read. They have moi
succeeded very well though
not SO much with them as with
the chronic ofhcc-scckcr. who
cares not for party principle,
SO long as the prospects ioI
an office are in sight it is thi,
class of men that they 9TH,
Republican leaders, especially
gloat over. They point on
his wrong treatment and tel
him that the people are aRil
him and every kind of a cock
and-bull' story To create dis
satisfaction in his mind. To al
such we say beware Don
allow yourselves To bclicv,
these men who would stca
your vote by false representa-
talon Go to the primaric,
and vote for your choice o
candidates and ii your mcr
are beaten in the convention
bow gracefully to the will o
the majority. This is true DE
mocracy.

bruised and bleeding, but they held
on with the desperation OF men who
hang by thread between life and
death. They looked down upon the
angry water below them and knew
they couldn't battle with the waves.
The final hour seemed to be upon
them. The great black hull of the
Trenton could be seen through the
darkness almost ready 10 crush the
Vsndalis. Suddenly a shout was
borne across the waters. The Tren-
ton was cheering the Vandslia. The
sound of $50 voices broke upon the air
and was heard above the roar Of the
tempest. "Three cheers for the Van
DALAI was the cry that warmed the
hearts of the dying men in the rig
ging. The shout died away upon the
storm and there arose from the quiver-
Ing mast OF the sunken ship response
so feeble il was scarcely heard on the
shore. The men who felt they were
looking death in the face, aroused
themselves to an effort aud united in
faint cheer for the flagship. The
sound of music next came over the
water. The Trenton's band was play
ing "Stsr Spsngled Banner" The
thousand men on sea and shore had
never heard the strains of music at
such time as this. The collision Of
the Trenton and Vandalla. which
everyone thought would crush the lat
ter vessel 20 pieces, seved the men in
the rigging. The Trenton dragged
back slowly, and when her stern
finally struck the side of Vsndslia a
great shock, she slowly swung around
broadside 10 the sunken ship. As
soon as the vessels touched the men in
the mizzen rigging crawled out of the
yards and jumped on the Trenton; the
men escaped just in time, for as the
last left the yards the mizzen mast of
the Vsndalia fell with crash toward
the shore. The men In the main mast
escaped in the same way and the main
mast of the Vandalia fell soon after
the mizzen, and II 10 believed several
men were killed in the rigging, II so
they were killed in the fall or drowned
before the men escaped from the rig
ging. The men who escaped to the
deck Of the Trenton had clung TO the
vandalia's rigging for nearly twelve
hours.

Peter Cooper.

Peter Cooper was born in the city ~
New York, Feb. l2. 1871, and died
there on the 9TH Of April. 1883. His
family were distinguished for their un-
wayering devotion TO the cause Of
American independence His father
was Lieutenant in the patriot army,
and his maternal grandfather sacrificed
a large fortune in the cause Of free
dom. Up 10 his seventeenth year, Peter
followed the various ayocations Of his
father-hatter, brewer, brickmaker
and again hrewer-whieh he carried on
in Peekskill, Catskill, Brooklyn and
Newburg, y. Y. During his apprentice
ship 10 the coach-making business,
which lasted four years, from
his 18th to his 2lst year, he in
vented mortiSing machine, which was
of much pecuniary benefit 10 his master.
but none 20 himself. Without capital,
he went 10 work making machines for
shearing cloth, for which he was paid
al. 20 day for three years. Atthe end
of that time he had saved enough
money 10 buy the right of the State of
New York for manufacturing the ma
chimes, and embarked in business Oh his
own account. lie was successful, and
aided his .4ther and. as he naiveiy said,
an consequence Of this my father new
or had the modification Of failing in
business. The same is true of my own
affairs. SO fur as ever having failed in
business. do not remember the week
OF month when every man who worked
for me did not get his pay when il Was
due" The wool-shearing machine
business became yalueless when the
war of 1912 commenced. In this con-
nection il is interesting TO note that the
principle of these machines was pre-
cisely the same as the one now used so
largely in reapers and moving machines.
At the termination Of the machine
business Mr.. Cooper bought a twenty
years lease Of two houses and six lots
Of ground, where the Bible House
now stands, opposite the Cooper lnsti-
tute. he erected some wooden build
ings, and carried ON the grocery busi-
ness for three years. Soon after hs
purchased a glue factory, betweeh
Thirty first and Thirty-fourth streets
which he carried on for twenty-one
years, aud then removed the business
TO Brooklyn, where il is continued al
the present time.
In 1928 Mr.. Cooper purchased q
large lot OF land in and about the city
Of Baltimore, Md. and established the
Canton Iron Works Here he built. in
1880, after his own designs, q loco.
motive engine which would turn the
short and frequent curves in the Balti.

road from bankruptcy and opened up q

Fair Warning to Milk Dealers. 9
Dairy Commissioner Ives, before
jumping upon milk vendors, very kindly,
makes the announcement that he has,
observed any number of milk depots,
which, under the dairy laws of this
state. are subject and in imminent peril
of being closed up and their proprietorss,
Justly mulcted. The warm weather OF
late and the carelessness and neglect of
the prOprietors of milk depots have
made many of st. Paul's milk markets
very filthy and unhealthy shops. TO
such of that fraternity as may consider
themselves included in the lot to whom
this warning is directed, the commits
sioner would say that by continuing to-
maintain carelessly managed and un.i
clean milk or butter stores they will
make themselves liable to heavy fine
and damaging publication of the re-
port of the committee which will in
vestigate their stores. A keen lookout
will he kept by the commissioner during
the summer, and all guilty ones will
be Summarily punished.

SAID BY MISS sCHLEY.
She Did Not Coerce Lizzie Kehl in
Any Way.


Any Way.
The sensational reports concerning
the girl Lizzie Kehl, who was fOrmerly
an inmate of the Young Girls home on
st. Peter street, appear to have no
foundation in fact. Miss Schley, the
matron, stated to GLOBE representa-
tive last night that the report that she
had attempted to influence the girl
Kehl in religious matters was utterly
false. Miss Schley knew nothing
as to the whereabouts of the
girl. She had delivered her to the
sisters at the House of the Good Shep-
herd, and there her responsibility
ceased. "The idea of my attempting to
force the girl to marry large German
Catholic is very absurd,'' said Miss
Schley, ''or would be but for the un-
pleasant publicity given the home by
all this sensationalism. AS for my hav-
ing kept the girl locked up, and refused
to allow friends to call on her, you may
judge of the amount of truth contained
in the statement when tell you she was
only here one night. will say one thing
however" Miss Schley continued: II
shall never admit another girl to the
home who comes from the House of the
Good Shepherd. The inmates of the
home who are conversant with the facts
of the case ridicule the 'large German
Catholic" idea, and substantiate the
statements made by the matrOn. Miss

yet must. in justice to all conscience,
say that his room in the new building is
about the most unsuitable sheriff's room
this side of outdoors. Instead of pro-
viding a private Office, it has been very
wisely arranged to receive callers in q
great black vault opening into the Office

deputies, there is room in the office,
proper to accommodate about two ana a.

neys will have the pleasure of doing
business in an off-hand way. An ele-

railing, and occupies more room than it
is worth in the sheriff's office. Sheriff
Bean offers to trade it for chair. "

august Steiner, young man seven
teen years of age, who lived with his
parents at 34S Banfil street, was fatally
injured at the high bridge yesterday
afternoon. He was walking along under
the structure, when a blast of wind
blew a section of the hand-rail, nearly
100 feet in length, from the top of the
bridge. He was unable to get out of
the way and was borne to the ground
under one end of the heavy iron frame.
When the workmen reached him life
was extinct, and from the fact that his
skull was completely crushed it was
evident that death had been instaneous.
Deputy Coroner Gurney was called and
viewed the body, but will probably hold
no inquest. The remains were taken
to the morgue and subsequently re-
moved to the home of his parents. The
section of hand-rail had been in posi-
tion several days, but the workmen had
not fully secured it.
