FOR GOVERNOR All. BURKE

>0~eSOA 49,
The career of Andrew H. Burke
the republican candidate for COVER.
nor is the history Of a ''self made"
man and a type of energy, courage
and manliness of which this nation
has had more examples than any
other.
Mr.. Burke was born in New
York city, May 18th, 1850. Here
he lived until eight years old, and
then moved to the state of Indiana.
His mother died when he was in
his infancy, and his father few
years later. He began the strug-
gle of an orphan boy. From the
age of eight to twelve we find him
living on an Indiana farm main.
tanning himself by farm labor.
When the war broke out the
farmer boy Burke was but eleven
years old, but he was filled with
indignation at the democratic
slave NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., and bis
patriotism asserted itself in an
unmistakable manner on several
Occasions.
A year later, when he was only
twelve years of age, he enlisted in
the 18th Indiana volunteer infan.
try, as a drummer-boy. He served
in the 14th army corps, through.
out the war under the redoubtable
leadership of "Pap Thomas" and
though a mere boy, vet the nervy
drummer.boy. on several occasions
gave an unmistakable evidence
that lie was not lacking in bravery
and patriotic devotion to the stars
and stripes. When the rebellion
was crushed and the nation pre-.
served, he returned from the wa,
with an honorable record-a full
aedged boy in blue-to receive that
homage and respect due the braye
defenders Of our nation.

THE BENwELL MURDER.
BurcheIi Makes Partial Confession
of Guilt,

TORONTO, Ontario, oct. 6.--The Globe
published this morning n sensational
story containing partial confession
from Burchcll regarding the killing of
Benwell, and says: 1t can not be said
that he made anything like clean
breast of the murder. All he has done
thus far is to make number of half
confessional statements, and to drop
hints and admissions which pieced to-
gether form a tolerably coherent story.
10 sum up, he acknowledges that he
was accessory, and confcsses that he
took Benwell to Eastwood and beyond
in the direction OF the swamp, but reso-
lutely sticks TO IL that his was not the
hand that slew the victim. All through
the conversations since his conviction
Durchcll has insisted that he had all nc
complicc. He has made it appear that
this uccomplico was II young English
man named Graham, who at one time
lived with Pckthall, on the lattcr's
farm. No one will for a moment believe
the charge made against Graham true.
anu there was not the slightest evidence
that Graham was seen near the swamp

CHICAGO, Oct. "a Times Cincinnati
special says circular that created
much comment was read In the Catholic
churches yesterday throughout the
Covington diocese. 1t was in effect
that the odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias,
Knights of Honor and other secret
societies, except the Masonic order, are
no longer barred from the Catholic
church. While no explanation was
given, 1t is learned that this was the
principal topic discussed at the council of

was considered advisable, however, that
as little publicity be given the matter as
