The President, it is rumored, desires to use the Federal election bill as | counter to free silver legislation. Ac- cording to this tale, he isreally as much opposed to the election measure us he is known to be to free coinage. If this be true the President is placed in q discreditable light. He ought not to have, in his message, recommended election legislation unless he honestly deemed this to be for the best interests of the country. The probability, in- deed, is that he holds this view of this measure. -Globe-D Democrat.

DECAY OF AN OLD FRIEND.
Fast Time and Dining Cars Knocking

Out the Railway Restaurant.
 'Dinner for four4 Yes, sir. But you will have to wait few minutes. ,"
 "All right" said VIC. But be az expeditions as you can, for we are hun gry."
 It was at Blanhton Junction and in the railroad station that this converse tion took place. The first speaker wore an anxious look, as if he was afraid that his four unexpected custom 'ers would get away The four had come up on freight train and were waiting for an express. They were hungry enough to tackle the toughest railway sandwich that ever escaped from a tannery. One of the four was a railroad travelling man, who had a nondescript friend who might be al
 most atiyJiEallEs. So far as appearances D showed. The other two were Hsgaaa k per men.

 and make for the butchers shop, and
 our hearts sank within us. But when We were called to dinner which the prOprietor's wife had prepared with ! her own hands-dear me time was
 when she had a dozen servants to call i upon--we looked and beheld a juicy
 forterhouse steak, with nicely fried DO
 tatoes, a tasty tomato salad and cup
 of good coffee. A dinner for king, and so we all pronounced it. The pro prietor was stil, anxious and apologetic, and charged us fifty cents apiece as if he felt he was doing us mortal injury 'Ges. said the railroad man, this was once a busy and prosperous rail

 knocked it out, and the man who once
 stood guard at the door and fairly coined money, as they say, is now hay

Mrs. Harriet M. Van Hoesen lives in what is left of the old Gibbs mansion the township of Lafayette, ten miles [ south of Lyracuse, N. Y. It was once palatial, as country residences go, but is now occupied only by owls, bats and Mrs. Van Hoesen.
 She is a disciple of the lost of astrol- ogy and few years ago hid the foun. dation of proposed academy for its study, which, on account of lack of funds, was never completed.
 Mrs. Van Hoesen hasrpad the worlds horoscope and deduces that from Adam

 The acquisition of the freighting bus mess between the railroad and Globe is but a portion of the incentive to the construction of the proposed road, for the route passes over one of the richest mineral sections of Arizona. before reaching the Gile cou1iy line. The Mineral Greek dtsirici is completely ribbed with massive lodges of rich ore that m:ast eventually support a mining eamp of great magnitude, and this too,
 in the very near future. The proposed road affords an outlet for this rich dis
 trict, for it passes through its very cen
 ter and touches many grand properties of which the public has heard but little, although quite extensive developments have been made, The necessity for ttle7 road IS therefore made more manifest for this reason, and it's construction must be pushed to an early completion at all hazards Florence Enterprise.

A sLUGGING MATCH.
Wheeling Puts Up Fine Game Against
Altoona Yesterday.

The aggregation of ball players known as
the AltoOnas, of Altoona. Pa, arrived in
the city yesterday for the purpose Of doing
battle with the Wheeling Club on the
Island base ball club in the afternoon. The
weather clerk made bad mistake and jig
gled the weather in an awful way, allow
ing a very bad day 20 drop into Wheeling
This scared base ball patrons away from
the Island. as il looked very much as II
several tubs Of water were TO come down
early in the game, so about one hundred
people was the number that occupied the
bleaching boards and grand stands when
the game was called
A number of old Tri-State Leaguers
among whom Billy Zecher, Dorby o 'Brien,
kid" Monroe, Alcott and Donoghue, ap-
peared in the team, with Mr. Monroe in
the box looking as fresh as a spring daisy
When Wheeling got through with him at
the end of the third he was very much
wilted flower. The Wheeling team had
their batting eyes with them and they
swiped that ball all over the lot and out
side Of the lot They raZZled-dazzled the
Kids curves until he saw stars. and the
legs Of the fielders were weary.
In the three innings Monroe was in the
box the Wheeling boys made twelve hits
with a total of twenty bases, ten runs be-
ing the result, and then he gave away TO
Darby OBrien and he took with him to
right field broken heart. O'Brien did
not stop the batting and the home team
kept pounding the ball at lively rate.
The fielding Of the Wheeling boys was fine.
OBrien especially doing splendid work at
short, as did Glenalvin at second. Leigler
made his appearance behind the bat and he
showed up in fine shape as he did at the
bat Lytle played third in good shape, his
one error being an eXcusable one on ac-
count of a bad bound. Fitzgerald pitched
a strong game, showing better speed than
be has heretofore shown.
Following is the score:
