The Cleveland Leader practically aa-
mits that it has no evidence to oiier IN
support Of its recent assertion that Col
onei Brice bought by his money the
votes which made him a Senator OF the
United States. m
That. we suppose. is the case with all
the newspapers, Democratic or RepuD,,
lican. which are talking wildly and
vaguely about bribery by wholesale 10
the Ohio Legislature. There are oceans
and oceans Of suspicion, but not SIN
gle drop Of real evidence.
And vet distinct proof Of bribery id
the case of one legislator would be
enough to keep Colonel Brice out OF his
seat i'm the United States Senate.
1t seems to us that the assailants oil
Colonel Brice ought to prove their ac
cusations or drop them entirely.

A Pointer TO Noulo-Be Suicides
washington pOst.l


w. X. Kaiser. Boston man.
made five unsuccessful attempts
ut euicide at Birmingham, Conn.
on Thursday. Four times he threw
himself in front Of moving rail-
wav trains. but each time the engi-
neer managed TO stop the train ia time
TO save his life. and on each OF these
occasions Mr.. Kaiser was left IN very
awkward position. lie finally resorted
TO the stabbing system, and securing
dull bread knife plunged 1t into his
breast several times. This ola moi
prove any more effective than the at
tempts on the railway tracks, and Mr..
Kaiser is still alive and able to dispose
of his usual portion Of beaus and brown
bread.
Now. if the Boston man is really ID
eornest: if he wants TO shuttle of tins
mortal coil and make no further bOtches
in that line. if Mr.. Kaiser really means
business, let him come TO Washington
when the bicycle season Is al its height
and simply indulge in little promiscu-
GUS standing around.
Exposition Prospects In Congress.
New York STAR
The passage Of the resolution offered
bv the Committee on Rules materially
improves the chances for a World 3
fair in New York. There seems to be
no dispute about the tally Of IA yeas
and l42 nays on the vote for special
committee of thirteen to replace the
Chicago committee on foreign alfairs
i'm the consideration of the Columbus
celebration. That means a fair and
favorable hearing Of the claims Of the
metropolis.
How the votes were really cast on
Thursday. when the names of members
sick at their homes were calmly record
ed as present and voting. no one Gao
tell. Had it not been for the energetic
and indomitable championship OF Rep
resentative Flower, New York would
probably have been left in the lurch by
the vagaries Of the tally clerk. Our
good friend, Mr.. Springer, OF Illinois.
was also helpful TO the right side by his
inquisitive and pertinasious sense Of
Justice, which, forcing a review Of q
minor tally, brought cut strongly the
fact that the Chicago forces were, by a
narrow margin, in minority in the
House.

MURDER IN NORTH KONA.

A Leper Shoots a Captain of Police.
and Badly Wounds another Police
man. The Murderer gives himself
up.
In Tuesdays ADVERTISER al item
stated that the Waialeale brought the
report of a policeman having been
shot by a leper in Kona. This report
was confirmed when the W. G. Hall
arrived in port Tuesday afternoon.
On Thursday, September 18th, T.
w. Simeona, Captain of the Police
at North Kona, and three policemen
went, between IL and II O'Clock at
night, to the house of one Kalama, a
leper, for the purpose of arrestiug
him. The house, grass one, is
situated in the woods. The police
surrounded the place and waited
there until close on to daylight.
They then heard a noise in the
house as if someone was chopping
wood Captain Simeona knocked at
the door, and Kalama asked who was
there. Simeona stated who he was,
and his business. Kalama shouted
out that he had better stay where he
was. Simeona then said, Il want
you to come out and go down with
u.s." Kalama said he would
not, and the police heard him
loading his rifle. A moment after
wards a shot was heard, and
Simeona fell to the ground dead, the
ball having entered the pit of the
stomach. It seems that Kalama
made a hole in the grass house, and
placing the muzzle of the gun in it,
fired with the above result. The
other police ran away a little dis
lance, with the exception of one Kea-
lohs Maui. Kalama fired on him, in
ficting serious injuries. There are
hopes of his recovery. The police
fired into the house, and one shot
hit Kalama in the leg, as when he
was examined the wound was
noticed.
Kalama escaped after the shooting,
but during the day his family were
all arrested and told that they would
be kept in confinement until they
told where Kalama was to be found.
In the evening, two members of the
family went out and returned with
Kalama, who on finding his family
had been arrested, concluded to give
himself up. Deputy-Sheriff Bright
notified Sheriff Hitchcock, who sent
word that he would soon be on the
spot.

MOSQUITO REFLECTIONS.

I've passed through many troubles, been
sea-sick on the seas;
I've come alive through Frisco and its
many million feas,
But until met the 'skeeter, who is ever
on the fly,
l never in all my life so truly longed to
die.
No words in Anglo-Saxon can properly
express
The misery they cause me whenever l
undress
And the adjectives I've used to them
from very hard to soft,
May quite discount my little chance Of
going up aloft
I've tried the Buhach powder which
promises so well,
And suffered most intensely from its
penetrating smell.
Still they come in thousands and sharpen
up their stings,
And gloat upon the feast in sight when l
remove my things.
I've tried nigh all the remedies suggested
by my friends,
And, so far, there is nothing in any way
that tends
To alleviate the misery they cause me
by the bite
They so frequently indulge me with.
especially at night.
met a gentle clergyman, who told me
with a smile,
I'd sure save myself so very much by
using pennyryle;
So l used it very free y-mostly on my
Till parties said they knew me, tho dis
tant many blocks.
1t smells so very nasty, often heave a
sigh,
And wish so earnestly it wasn't quite
so high,
For it really is not nice when dancing at
a hop
To smell so very like a busy druggists
shop.
am never asked to dinner, or even out
to tea;
It's only what is natural, for people are
not free
To invite guest among them who fairly
wits the crowd,
And causes objurgations so unseemly
and so loud.
WIENER l ride upon the trans, OF even
on the trains,
The passengers all make remarks about
the horrid drains,
Requiring distinction with such potent
stuff
And one by one drop off the Car ere they
have had enough.
The use of this pernicious drug has
robbed me of my rest;
l roll and toss around my bed, and
dream | am pest
That the Board of Health have sent me
of to Molokai,
As pennyroyal leper, am doomed to
live or die.
I've lived so very wickediy, and told so
many lies,
[ fear me l may never reach the Bible
paradise.
But If it has mosquitoes like the Paradise
Pacific,
1 think I'd rather try the place where
heat is so terrific.
I've been to see them legislate in their
pleasant little way
Where they do SO little work for the lot
they have to say,
And Pve thought it might employ them,
and give US all a rest,
If they passed bill appropriate to crush
the little pest.
I've also got a new idea the country to
enthuse-
Both simple and effective, tor it merely
means to use
The "gas" that flows so freely upon the
Senate floor,
And turn it on the 'skeeters till they
exist no more.
Or suppose that all the members buy
powder squirt,
And hustle after 'skeeters instead OF
throwing dirt.
Reelection would be certain when the
people understood
That the Legislative body was doing
something good.
