Votes that Have Come to Stay.


The change in votes this year from the
Republican to the Democratic side is largely
a permanent change, and not spasmodic
one. 1t rests upon deep seated convictions,
and if the Democratic party will maintain its
present attitude and march steadily forward
on the path of progress and reform, those
votes and many others will have come to stay.

Seward, convicted of murder, to be hanged
on Thursday, January Doth. After passing
sentence he said that he saw, from the apparent
surprise of the people in the court room, that
an explanation was in order; and then in
few words he stated that he never had, and
never would, sentence man to be executed
on q Friday, because on that day Jesus Christ
was cruciGed, and he would not insult the
memory of the founder of Christianity by
sentencing a murderer to be hanged on the

THE KANGARoo's FLASH JUMPS.
Hunters in Great Danger from the
Great Leapers.
Fran, tbe Ne,r York .Io,,,.,, \

From the Ne1C York Journal
When brought to bay, the kangaroo
jumps like flash for the hunters chest and
tries to crush it in with his fore feet. To
prevent this each man wears across his
breast two or three inch thick mating
Armed with a spear, with club attach
ment at the other end, they ride upon swift
horses into herd.
With the agility and equipoise of circus
riders they stand erect upon their horses
and use their spears and clubs The kan
CARGO is able to jump clear over a horse.
As the game is bagged it is skinned, and the
skin is stretched on the ground and pegged
down to prevent shrinkage. The flesh fur
nishes meat for tbs camp.
Each man places his private mark upon
his booty, and when they have 100 apiece
they return back to civilization. There are
twenty varieties of kangaroos, among them
the blue, red Wallaby, black, gray and
forester, the latter furnishing the best
leather, as it lives mainly in wooded sec
tions.
When the shipping ports arc reached the
hunters dispose of the skins by auction to
the highest bidders, the skins being now in
constant demand. kangaroo hunters make
large profits. One man is known to have
cleared 81 500. free of living expenses, in a
single year.

ROYAL DRESS REFoRMERs.
Gossip About the Princess of Wales

Gossip About the Princess of Wales
and Her Daughters.
From The Chicago Netcs
The young German empress has organ
lied dress reform association, and there
fore 'dress reform" will be one Of the fads
for some time to come. Some years ago
Queen Victoria caught the dress reform
fever and Joined an association and in
weighed number of her dowager friends to
join, too They do say that, while she her.
self never adopted any dress reform habits,
the queen insisted that others should; in
other words. like the doctor with the -pill.
she preferred to try it on a dog. The
Princess of Wales joined the same associa-
tion and made her three daughters join.
The three daughters had to practice the
reform, while the princess simply ap-
proved it.
The princess has been poisoning out in
very stunning toilet of late; she appears to
have acquired all of sudden fondness for
superb dressing. At any rate, people are
wondering what spell has come upon her
royal highness. Tha two unmarried daugh-
tiers. however. are kept in exceedingly
modest-I had almost said shabby-attire.
Then, too, they are severely watched, al
though they are no longer spring chickens.
OF this constant espionage the primo esses
are said to be heartily weary; their misery
has been e1hanced by the spectacle of de-
lightful freedom which their older sister,
the Duchess of Fife, presents.
