Cleveland On the Result.


To an Associated Press reporter,
who asked for an expression of his
opinion on the results of the elections
ex-Presldent Cleveland said to-day:
II am delighted. [ challenge the
right Of any man in the country to re-
joice more heartily than I over the
results of yesterday. My gratifca-
ton is that OF an American, proud of
his fellow-countrymen, who, though
led away for time by party prejudi-
ces and by blind confidence in cum
ming and selfish leaders could not be
deluded to their ruin.
They have demonstrated that, in
dealing with them, it is not safe to
calculate that they are stupid or heed
less of the welfare of their country.
The necessity of tariff reform with its
consequent reduction in the cost of
living, and the duty of the Demo
cratic party to advocate it, has been
fully demonstrated by the action of
the people yesterday. Their decis-
ion has been deliberately made, and
it is all the more significant because
they have voted upon their reason
and Judgment, and because they have
proved that corruption IS powerless
against their convictions.
OF course, there is nothing for the
Democratic party to do but to push
on the battle at all times and in al
places on the lines which they have
laid down-that Is, to insist upon a
wise adjustment of tariff taxation to
the reasonable needs of the govern
ment as opposed to the plan which
enriches a favored class at the ex.
pense of the masses of the people
Until the victory is won the question
Of tariff reform will not be settled no.
the pledges and professions of the
Democratic party to the people re-
deemed.
Our party has made an honest an(
an earnest fight. It has planted it
self upon disinterested and unselfsE
devotion to the interests of the PEG
pie. Its absolute unity and harmon.
: upon the question of tariff reform
shows its quick recognition of tru
Democratic principles, and its en-
thusiasm in a cause which involve
: the popular welfare. Everywher
our people have done magnificent
and the harvest they have gathere
has been nobly earned"
In an answer to inquiry as to hi
view of the operation of the ballo

The mine is worked with two shafts.
one 2,952 feet deep and the other S,0s3.

A PRICED palm tree in Rome was

NJ. Bunall Varilla has come forward
with a new plan for uniting England

combining both. The plan now to be
considered projects pier or viaduct
that shall extend out from each side Of
the channel about mile. From the
sea-end OF these piers connection is to
be made by tubes with a submarine tun-
mel. Through these tubular approaches
railway trains will be lowered on an in
cline into the main tunnel.
SINCE about the middle of May the
city of Tomsk in Siberia has been under
water. The river Toma began over
flowing it's banks as soon as the ice
broke, and the inundation continued in
creasing until more than three-quarters
of the city was covered. Many houses
were destroyed by the current and the
drifting of ice-blocks, and many lives
were lost. The churches, the school
buildings, the markets we're inundated,
and the rapid increase of water created
panic among the citizens so that they
were entirely helpless, and many Of
them rushed to certain death. The fire
department and the military posts of
the place could do very little to help
the panic-stricken citizens and they had
to make gigantic efforts to save the Gov
eminent property and the important
Hity archives.

Her HANDSOME REscuER.
a Young LAdyaa Thrilling Escape fr0m
Wild Western Flood.

| a Young LAdysa Thrilling Escape from .
wild Western Flood.
A young lady who has just returned
from the widest part of the wild West,
says the Louisville Commercial. tells q
| story on herself that goes to prove
that there is a good deal in the saying
about not judging by appearances. She
| was staying on a ranch One day she
went alone for long ride. She finally
came to the bank of a dry river bed and
rode up the canyon, In the north
west she saw u cloud from which a
heavy rain was falling As it was being
rapidly driven toward her by the wind
she turned and put her horse in a gall
lop. Tho bed of the river was hard
and sandy, and her horse skinned
along as if thoroughly enjoying the run.
AS she turned bend she looked back
and the cloud was almost overhead. She
brought her whip down sharply across
her horse and turned to look back once
more, when what was her horror to see
wall of water six or eight feet high
rushing toward her. She turned her
horse diagonally across the river bot
tom and began to ply the whip with
might and main. Her horse, now
thoroughly aroused, dashed madly for
ward, as, with whltened lips and
blanched face, she forced him on.
Nearer and nearer she was getting to
high ground, but faster and faster the
water approached. its front boil
ing and foaming in it's rush and
casting spray high in air as it struck the
ground. Suddenly tho water was shut
from her sight by a small island that she
had not noti&d until it doomed up be-
tween herself and the body of approach
ing water. Tho island was a hundred
yards above her and toward the water.
She turned her horse sharply toward it
and, urging him with whip and spur,
forced him on. She had almost reached
1t, when the water struck the other side
OF the island with a roar that so startled
her horse that he came to a dead stand
and she was hurled forward. Almost
before she struck the ground the water
surged around the island. AS she gave
up hope she was caught around the
waist and lifted in front of a man on
horseback, who in few minutes had
her in safety. Her horse had reached
the road and after she was rested her
rescuer brought it to her and helped her
mount. For the first time she noticed
him. He was fully six feet tall and
broad-shouldered. He wore full beard
and, while very rough-looking, was very
handsome. She thanked him for saving
her life, but he hardly spokeAI word, yet
did not seem embarrassed. When they
reached home she spoke to her sister in
French and said: "Is he not handsomeP
Look what magnificent figure. ETC."
He turned and smilingly thanked her in
French. She then learned that he was
a college graduate and was staying in
the West for his health. She saw a
great deal of him and it is very probable
that, as he saved her life, he will ask
the right to care for Railways.

SIT must be borne in mind" writes an
Augusta correspondent of the Bost on
Journal, that although enormous
quantities of ice were cut in Maine dur
ing the past seasonal great deal of it was
put up in temporary way by men in
experienced in the business, and conse-
quently there has been much loss from
melting, .and as the result of poor pack
ing. 1t is estimated that there now re-
mains unsold the following quantities:
Kennebeck river, $4,000; tons Penobscot
river, 10000 tons; Maine and New
Brunswick coast, $4,000 tons; sold for
New York, but not yet shipped, 245, 1000
tons; total loss of 100000 tons. 1t is
assured that the total quantity of Maine
ice unsold to-day and available for the
market will not exceed ESQ, 900 tons.
