PAwNING AT vAssAR.

Tho Habit Grew From n Transnctiou With
Woman Instead of Mine Uncle.
Boston GIooe.1
The pawning habits comparatively new
feature OF Vassar life. Atleast, one cannot
find that it was ever heard OF until within
the past four or five years. How it originated
is not known positively, but the story goes
that once upon a time 4 well-known and
very popular girl, who generally had plenty
OF money to spend, and who, for that reason
as we'll as several others, was queen of her
select circle, found herself very "hard up
and as this condition was due to cxtrav-
agance that her teachers or parents would
hardly have considered legitimate, she did
noe dare appeal to them.
Finding herself in Poughkeepsie, and
being about to spend her last 10 cents in
buying sweetmeats of the old woman who,
had supplied her with these dainties for
nearly three years, she became confidential,
and told the sympathetic cake woman every
thing.
The old woman really feeling that it
would be an honor to have such 'loVely
yolng lady" accept q loan from her, 50
expressed herself, and her offer, after
some demurring on the part OF
the young lady, was accepted.
OF course it was only week
or so before she was supplied with money
from home, and in paying the debt she in
sisted upon giving a little bonus on the
actual sum, perhaps merely in gratitude,
perhaps knowing that to be the best way of
keeping the transaction secret.
The tradition goes on to say that finding
that such an easy way of getting some extra
money she resorted to it quite frequently,
and after awhile told a friend, who told q
friend, and so on.

GOOD MEN IN POLITICS.

When the Best Citizens Take No Interest
Bad Government Ensues.
Cardinal Gibbons, in an address recently,
uses these words: "When we find the most
upright citizens taking no interest in poli-
tics, showing no zeal for the good govern
ment of the country, we may expect politic-
al stagnation and corruption. But when
the best citizens manifest interest in public
affairs, we have good government and hon
est administration of public trusts 1t Is
the duty Of every man to take an active
personal interest in the welfare OF his coun-
try, and to see that the best eitixens are
elected to public places."

A STANDING JOKE.

Although in 1885, as stated, the National
Guard Association succeeded in Increasing
the appropriation, it did not succeed in ne.
pealing the obsolete militia law. This Law

standing jokes OF the century-it might
safely be called the great national Joke IN

Seventy-seven Chinese Drowned Captain
Anderson's Story.
SAN Francisco, May 26th.-The schooner
Alice Kimball, Captain Rasmussen, ar
rived in port on Sunday night from Sanak.
Alaska Among the passengers were Cap
tain Anderson and two officers of the ship
Oneida. The latter vessel which was
bound from San Francisco for Thin Point
was sunk near Sanak island on the night
of April Goth. The night was clear and
the ship was sailing along briskly before a
smart breeze when shock was felt that
snook the vessel from stem to stern and
started her timbers. She had struck on a
sunken rock not on the chart. The fore
rushed into the fated vessel from all sides,
flooding the deck and cabin and finding its
way into the hold.
There were Ito Chinese laborers and As
white men on board, bound for the cam
merry at Thin Point, Alaska and the scenes
that followed among the frenzied Asiatics
beggars description. They swarmed up on
deck, trampling upon each other in their
wild efforts to reach the boats. The whites
climbed into the rigging or got out the
boats. Sea after sea washed the deck,
sweeping the terrified coolies into the
breakers. The Oneida went to pieces in
less than an hour, all her cargo being lost.
The survivors of the wreck succeeded in
getting ashore in the boats, and when all
hands were mustered it was learned that
II Chinese had been sucked under the
waves.
The Oneida was owned by Louis Sloss,
and left here on March 2Sth. Mr.. Sloss
valued the vessel and cargo at 100000, the
insurance on both amounting $4,000. The
Chinese and white laborers who were saved
were left at Sanak, and another vessel will
be fitted out Immediately to take the
Oneida's place.

said TO be step toward the further central
ization OF power in the hands OF Chris

In an address to the Republicans by an
organization styling itself the Executive
Committee of the Republican Party of San
Francisco, and issued tonight, occurs the
following: We hereby give notice that no
barricades ballot box stufiing, repeating or
kindred ouirages perpetrated at former Re-
publican primaries will be tolerated. In
the future We demand a fair election and
where the oalloi-boxes will be at
all times in full view of the
voter, and where the election officers
shall be Republicans and tax payers, as
provided by Law and duly sworn, to prop
eriy perform their duties, and where all
the safeguards Of the law that are put in
force a. general elections shall be applied
TO this primsry election. If the County
Committee shall pursue a proper and law
ful course that will insure 10 the members
of the party a right TO cast their votes
without intimidation and have them fairly
and honestly counted, we will heartily CO.
operate with ii. and IS indication of our good
faith we heartily tender to them and all the
Republican Clubs and organizations our
active aid and assistance in an effort 10
secure a favorable result. Should the
County Committee, however prove recre-
ant to lis trust, we hereby pledge ourselves
TO follow such course as may be deemed
expedient, and for the best interests of the
party.
AS the time for holding the primary is
not far distant, and as the magnitude o.
our work is great, we now urge upon al
Republicans the necessity for immediate
action"
