CHANDLER DEFEATED.


piscomhtureS thick aud fast are coming
upon the republicans. Their attempt to
steal the Wisconsin senate by a system of
recounts has faileo. and now comes the
good news from New Hampshire that
Senator Chandler, the arch-conspirator
among New England republicans, has been
humbled 10y the very body from which he
expected allotment in his crime of stealing
senatorship The special session of
the legislature has come TO au
end after the lawmakers had
declined to pass the measure on which
Chandler had set his heart Chandler had
calculated that mt this special session
he would he able to secure the passage
Of an act confirming in advance the right
Of certain republican claimants to seats in
the next legislature. Such an enactment
would have been revolutionary, since it
aimed to take away from Legislative body
the constitutional right to determine its
own membership. But that consideration
could not be expected to influence Chan
dler. since the success Of his scheme would
insure him a servile republican majority
But the plan miscarried. The superior gem
eralship oI the democrats, added TO factional
republican jeaIousieS, combined to defeat
the Chandler wing Of republican extremists
The next legislature will settle the matter
There ought at no time to have been any
question of Its right to do so. That the
settlement will be in accordance with the
sovereign will of the people there remains
little doubt.

Gen. Ginty was one of t he best known
and most popular citizens of the state.
His acquaintanshIp extended into every
quarter of the commonwealth. He was
born in Toronto, Canada, Feb. IA, 1840
and entered printing office at II years of
age. He thoroughly mastered the art
pr,servative' and was connected with
J. throughout his entire life, sadly cut
short long before the allotted time of man.
For nearly thirty years he had been an ed
itor and for about two-thirds of that time
he conducted with great ability the Herald,
published at Chippewa Falls. He was
good soldier and served with distinction
in the late war He early became assis-
tant provost marshal, then major of in
fantry, afterwards colonel and left the
service as a breyet brigadier general.
His regiment was the 47th, and in it, as
well as with the brave soldier boys gen
orally, he was exceedingly popular.
He was repeatedly honored with pu bic
trusts both since the war. and prior to
entering the service. In 1861 he was an
alderman in Chippewa Falls; the
following year he served in the
assembly and from 1858 to
1884 he was president of the
board of education in his home city. He
always manifested keen interest In edu-
cational matters and d high, pure tone
characterized the paper in which for
so many years he took so much
pride. For three years he was
president of the Wisconsin Editorial asso-
| citation and no member of that organiza-
tion was held IN higher esteem He was
elected to the state senate in 1884 by a
large majority and served four years in
that honorable body. There he performed
excellent service, taking very conspicu-
Gus part IN the legislative proceedings.
At the session of 1856 he was chairman Of
the committee on public lands and a mem

factures and commerce and interpretations,

The Ladies Home Journal: If the sir
loin weighs twelve or fifteen pounds, two
hours and a half will be sufficient to roast
it in. Beef must hang at least two days;
its flavor is much improved thereby Rub
it with soft butter, sprinkle all over well
with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of
cayenne; dredge well with sifted -four, set
in pan in which there Is quart of cold
water, a d put the pan in the oven. Leave
the door aiar until the meat begins to cook.
Basic often with larded mop and with
-four, and cook slowly. On prieking the
meat with fork if no red juice follows, it
Is sufficiently done. Beef should be cook
ed slightly rare. 1t is more nutritious and
juicy. 1t should be done a fine brown.
Remove from the pan and keep warm
while the gravy is being carefully skim
med. If 1t Is not quite thick enough add a
little cracker dust and boil up for min

mixed mustard.
