A Vendetta.

New ORLEANS, Oct. 1s.--Joseph Mach
eca and other leading Italians against
whom affidavits were made yesterday
after the shooting and partial confes-
sion of Scotfide, were arrested this
morning, charged with being accesso-
ries to the murder of Hennessy. At a
special meeting of the council at noon
Mayor Shakespeare's message was read
denouncing the murder of Hennessy by
Silicians, through hired assassins, de-
claring that terrible secret societies ex-
ist in New Orleans, and that in this in
stance the chief of police was assassina-
ted for doing his duty in enforcing
American laws. Councilman Britton
offered a resolution which was adopted,
that the mayor appoint committee OF
fifty or more if he deems proper to thor
oughly investigate these secret orders
and report. The mayor to-day received
a communication notifying him that he
will be the next victim. Mr.. Shakes
peare says that this will not deter him
from doing his duty. He appointed the
committee of fifty to hunt out the ven
delta.

believe that experience, which is the

best conducive to the interests Of the

TWO UNIQUE FESTIVALS.

A great many of orr American cities have
attempted, at one time or another. or VI d
spectacular parades, but with few except

George Washington Presidential Centenr ial

ATTEMPTED, but in all points except that Of
great numbers Of people, it was unsuecess-
full, as confessed by the papers Of the Me-

these things are handled rightly and made a

The Human Ear.

Few people realize what a wonderful
" delicate structure the human ear real
ly is. That which we ordinarily desig-
nate SO is, after all, only the mere outer
porch of a series Of winding passages,
which, like the lobbies Of a great build
ing, lead from the world without to the
world within. Certain of these passages
are full of liquid. and their membranes
are stretched like parchment curtains
across the corridor at different places,
and can be made to tremble like the
head of a drum or the surface of a tam
BOURNE does when struck with a stick
or with the fingers. Between two of
these parchment like curtains a chain Of
very small bones extends, which serve
to tighten or relax these membranes,
and to communicate vibrations to them.
In the innermost place of all a ROY of
white threads called nerves stretch like
the strings of a piano from the last point
to which the tremblings or thrillings
reach and pass inward to the brain.
A wonderful piece of mechanism, in
deed!-St. Louis Republic.

a rev men Run the House.

Thus it appeared that of the $50 men,
bers of the house not more than a couple
of dozen, or at the outside two score,
have anything more than a local or state
reputation. As a matter of fact, the
business Of the house is in the hands of
a half dozen men, and when my friend
asked m to point out to him the men
who during the next two years will con-
troll, or largely control, the lawmaking
of that body, I showed him Reed in the
chair, alert and self ~complacent; McKin-
ley OF the floor, pale and reserved; Bayne,
of P%ittsburg, bearded and strong willed;
Cannon, of Illinois, studiousiy reading
the revised statutes and chewing the end
of a Wisconsin cigar; Cabot Lodge,
young, strong, clean limbed, athletic

and affable, and with his shoes-the

Countess of Salisbury lost as she stepped
a stately measure with his majesty at

What Democrats Want.

Mr.. Calvin s. Brice informed the
Dc mocrats Of Ohio on the occasi n
of his nomination for Senator, that
Tariff Reform is now the greet prin-
ciple of the Democratic party"
Mr.. Brice has been a long time in
finding out that his party is in earn
est on that subject. He had not
learned the lesson when he and Sen
ator Barnum ere engaged as Nat
ional Com nitteemen in wrecking the
Democratic Tariff Reform canvass Of
1888.
And if he means now to say that
the ia if:reform d ;sires Of the Dem
ocracy-earnest as they undoubtedly
area are strong enough to dominate
all other purposes Of the party he is
egregiously mistaken. The thing
which the Democratic party most
wants is the restoration Of individual
manhood to the co 1trolling place in
politics from WI ich Boodlers, specu-
1ators, railroad wreckers and Pluto.
Gratis of every kind have pushed it.
The reform which democrats wan'
most of all is the overthrow If mere
money as a political force-a reform

man like Calvin S. Brice to buy a
seat in the Senate and pose there as q
