Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-11-18

THE condition of affairs in Russia, as
presented by the cable reports of the
people suffering from semi starvation,
and as shown in the graphic letters of
Harold Frederic concerning the Jewish
persecution, would seem to doom that
country to speedy revolution if the
weight of hopeless political inertia did
not prevent a popular uprising. In a
great country having nearly a hundred
million people, it is much more difficult
to start an effective revolution than in a
relatively small country, and the diff
Guilty is intensified when there is no
predominant centre. The French revo-
luton, taking its rise in Paris, made its
influence felt throughout France by the
mere fact Of it's birthplace; but a revo-
luton that should break out in Moscow
or st Petersburg would be looked upon
as local, and, if the government func-
tions could not be quickly assumed by
the revolutionists, would be crushed as
a mere sporadic uprising.

dent Wardal, of South Dakota, and Fl.
L. Loulzs, of South Dakota. George
Northup, of Wisconsin, is against the
third party. So is Fl. G. Demming, of
Pennsylvania. Frank McGrath is for
it. President Harvey Arnold, of New
York, will probably voice the views of
the empire state as loudly as anybody.
Not in controversial spirit, but
merely with view to presenting the
news it may be safe to say that some of
the most interesting debates of the con-
vention will be stirred up by U. S. Hall,
of Missouri. He will renew his war
ucon @. W. Macune. It was he who
lad the special committee appointed to
investigate the charges against
Macune at Ocala. This'committee was
secret, but Hall has since given its
inner workings some publicity. There
is no doubt that he will make what he
considers to be an expose. The COM
mittee referred to above made two re-
ports, the majority favorable to Macune,
and the minority, signed by Hall and
McGrath, against him. They charged
Macune with dubious transactions in
relation to the Louisville & Nashville
railroad. The charge may be aired
again. Hall, by the way, is very
prominent man in his state. He is. an
anti-third party alliance man. and is
likely to be the next democratic NOM
inee for governor of Missouri.

HIS BRIDE ABDUCTED.

PORTLAND, Me-. Nov IS. the inhabi-
tants of the island of Chebeague, il
Casco Bay, are in state of great ex-
citement over the abduction of a brida
by her irate mother
For some time past Martin B. Hamil-
ton, aged 30, has been paying attentions
to the village schoolmistress, a bright
young woman of 10, Miss Zetta Hamil
ton. The courtship was opposed by the
young lady's mother, and the couple re-
solved to marry without her consent.
Monday they went to the house of q
friend and were married by Rev. Joseph
Wright. The newly married bride re-
turned to her parents to break the news
and the groom to his house to await fur
Their developments.
Hearing nothing from his bride, he
went to her homo the next morning and
received from his new mother-in-iaw q
warm greeting. He asked to see his
wife, but his request was denied.
Two days passed, when the captive
bride managed to send letter to hel
husband. That afternoon he was prom
ised an interview with her the next day.
Early that morning. the. bride, with
her eldest brother and mother, took thu
steamer for Portland, before the groom
knew what had happened.
The young man is nearly frantic a
the loss of his wife, and has sought lega
advice to have her restored to him.

Woman Threatened With the Stake
and Brutality Beaten.
WnKEsBARRE, Pa, Nov. 1S.-French
town, Luzerne County, has been in .
turmoil for several days on account Of
the superstitious beliefs of the foreign.
ers who compose that town. About 9
week ago Mrs. Pasacre in an unguarded
moment stated that she was the
daughter of mountains shepherd in
Austria Hungary, and according to the
natives such a woman has the power of
bewiJching.
Every little misfortune that has since
befallen any of the inhabitants of the
town has been charged to her. She has
been universally stunned and threaten
ing letters sent her stated that the
citizens would combine and burn her at
the stake if she would not commit sui
eide.
A cow belonging to the leader against
the innocent woman took sick and died
and he charged the death of the animal
to the 'switch.' - He went to the house
and demanded that the cow be brought
back to life within five hours. The
penalty for failure to do so was death.-
When the five hours had expired and
the animal had not come to life the
owner collected a crowd and proceeding
to her residence, dragged her from her
home and so murderously assaulted her
that her life is despaired OF. Her hus
band had as many of the men arrested
as he knew and in a hearing they were
committed to Jail.

IT is now stated that Secretary Foster
has made up his mind, after consulting
Mr. Harrison, not to make a change in
the Office of the comptroller of the cur
rency, notwithstanding the popular i'm
preston that the incumbent, Mr.
Lacey, had by his seeming carelessness
in the matter of the wrecked national
banks in Philadelphia, Boston and else
where, lost the confidence of the public,
which it so necessary for the holder of
that position to have, if discredit is not
to be brought on the entire national
banking system. 1t is understood that
Secretary Foster will, in his annual re-
port, attempt to show that it is weak
ness in the law and not lack of vigilance
on the part of government officials that
is to blame for the hoodwinking of the
department by unsound banks.

SECRETARY SwARTwoUT of the demo-

ernor Buckley are perhaps satisfied by
this time that there are few aggressive
papers in Connecticut. These two gen.
tlemen are just little behind the age
in regard to what "a good live news
paper should be. There was a time,
and it is not SO very long ago, when
every newspaper was an organ, and
shaped Its policy to please some party
boss, as, for instance, Mr. Buckley. But
that day has gone, never to return. The
successful newspaper.of to-day, must be
as free as air. 1t must be unyielding in
its support of great principles. Aside
from that, it must be unfettered and
free to pass judgment upon the indi-

SOME one upon whose hands time
hung heavy dissected one Of the New
York Sunday papers the other day and
found that it was made up as follows: 1t
contained 252 columns. Advertise
ments, 1876; local politics, eight; shop

stories, six; athletics, six; foreign news,
six; Mrs Cleveland's baby, two; short
editorials, six; dramatic news, six; all
sorts, sixty-five. Total, 252 columns.
He was unable, after a careful search.
to find out where the Sunday part of
the paper was. Now, reading at an
ordinary gait, it took seven minutes to
read one column of the said paper.
Seven minutes to one column means
just twenty nine hours and twenty-four
minutes to 252 columns. Now deduct
twenty nine hours and a half from Sun
day and it does not leave much time in
which to read your bible, to go to
church, get acquainted with your
family, visit the sick and get the eating

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Nov. 1S.-Mary
Kishbaugh was brought here yesterday
from Stockton and taken to Jail on the
charge of infanticide. She confessed
that she threw her babe into vault, but
said she thought it was dead. Marks on
the neck, however, indicated that the
child had been strangled. The girl came
from Austria three months ago. She
says she was sent here by her lover, who
promised to follow and marry her,
