The recent improvement in type

the days of the compositor and his stick

numbered they are numbered q long
way ahead. It will be long time he
fore the busy brain of the inventor will
evolve steam compositor that will
take the place of the living one, even
though he is at times faulty and
cranky, and given to disappearing
mysteriously at the very time when
his presence is most needed.

A Rallying Committee wss also elected.
In the organization of this Club. the right step
has been taken. In no other way can as effective
work be accomplished as by thorough organi "a
tion. An association of this kind provides. so to
speak, Democratic home. whose doors are al
ways open. and where seekers after political truth
are more than welcome 1t concentrates the
thoughts and plans of individuals, and directs
them into the proper channels for real usefulness
1t is not the design of the Club to engage in
any cheap sentimentalism. that constitutes the
foundation and strength of the Republican mass
es. Brass band oratory. torchlight logic. tir
canes and tin cans. will not be relied upon tt
convince men of the Righteousness of the Demo
cratic cause. Men are invited to identify them
selves with its members that they may find as
sistance in their efforts to understand Alright thu
real issues between the two parties and be abl
to vindicate their votes by facts and reason. II
this way the party will be strengthened, and al
ways be in shape to take the field, and be pre-
pared for every emergency.
This is campaign of education on the part o
the Democrats. and we are very glad indeed t.
see the good work SO materially assisted in thi
way. Let every Democrat and every thoughtful
inquirer in the County join the Thurman Club
and thus place himself in position to becom
thoroughly enlightened on the great economi
questions of the day.
The Club will hold its next session one wee
from Friday night. at which time there will b
some rousing speeches.

No Decision Yet in the Case of John
Rodgers, the Stationer.
The case of John Rodgers, the stationer.
for selling the Police Gazette was before Judge
Slagle yesterday. A motion was made on
Friday by Attorney Yost, of the Law and
Order Society, to have sentence imposed in
the case in which Rodgers had been con-
victed some time ago and sentence sus-
pended. He was again selling the paper,
and they wanted sentence imposed. The
case was continued until yesterday, when
Captain Wishart submitted to the Court
copies of the paper claimed to have been
sold by Rodgers. He said that he had seen
posters displayed advertising the sale of ac-
counts of the Frye elopement Upon in
vestigation he found that Rodgers was again
selling the Police Gazette.
Attorney f. G. McGirr appeared for
Rodgers. He maintained that the papers
now sold by Rodgers were entirely changed
from the ones he sold before and for which
features had been eliminated, and the paper
was now wholly composed of clippings from
daily papers containing police news. 1t
was paper for the police and aided in the
capture of criminals by the descriptions and
accounts given of them. Mr.. McGirr, in
the course of his remarks, said that when
Rodgers was convicted he was not guilty of
very serious crime.
eyes, they were guilty of a very gross
crime" exclaimed Judge Slagle, "but as it
had been going on for years without
hindrance, we agreed to suspend sentence
with the understanding that if they came up
again we would sentence them on the old
cases." He said further that the only ques-
tlon now is, has Rodgers been conducting
himself in proper manner? Judge Slagle
reserved his decision and took copies of the
paper sold now and before for comparison.

of Rheumatism With Nervous Prostra-
tion-Joyful News for Those Who Suf-

How He Recovered From a Severe Attack
of Rheumatism With Nervous Prostra-
tion-Joyful News for Those Who suf-
fer.
Mr.. Julius Heinsich, a wellknown
gentleman, residing at No. 10 Iden
mason and who has been in the
employ of Foster & Alsteon for the
past five years, stated to-day for the benefit
of those who may be suffering, as he was,
from a severe attack of rheumatism in his
back and limbs, accompanied by general
nervous prostration, rendering him unable
to work, which caused much anxiety as to
what course he should pursue to regain his
health, that various means for relief
were tried successfully, as recommended
by friends, but everything failed,
and having read as we'll as hear
ing of the good results that were being
obtained at the Electrical and Medical In
stitute Cat 422 Penn avenue, Pittsburg), he
resolved to go there and take course of
treatment. Commencing on June 80 he has
continued the same daily since that time.
t'Talk about good results, he says, "why
they commenced to show themselves in
very few days, and was delighted to know
that my case was rapidly improving, and
now after three weeks treatment I feel like
a new man, and am performing my daily
labor as usual, which you know is very
heavy, without any Inconvenience what
ever" Mr.. Heinsich speaks very highly of
the above mentioned institute and their
scientific methods of administering electric
ity which he says is so pleasant to receive,
and commends it to any one suffering with
rheumatism and nervous prostration.
According to the favorable reports re-
coiya6 from the many natienfs uho oro
treating, the institute is certainly taking
the lead in Western Pennsylvania in the
treatment of chronic diseases, such as rheu-
matism, neuralgia, spinal diseases, paraly-
sis and nervous prostration, ETC., from
whatever cause. Many patients come from
different parts of the country for treatment.
The correspondence is very large from
those who through the mail furnish full
description of their case, and receive medi-
cines and appliances with full instructions,
ETC., at home.

WARNED BY WHITE CAPS,
Two Pittsburgers Receive Notices of Com

Two Pittsburgers Receive Notices of Com
ing Cremation for Both.
Two young gentlemen of this city were
served with "White Cap" notices yesterday.
One is handsome young bachelor, and the
other benedict.of few months standing.
They both live in the same building, the
married man occupying apartments on the
fourth floor and the bachelor having his
office and sleeping room on the first They
are warm personal friends, and have been in
the habit of spending the evenings together,
and, in fact, of prolonging their convivial-
ity, the last few nights of raised tempera-
ture, into the "wee sma'" hours 1t is
thought the notices are the direct result of
the prolongation, and were instigated by
the wife of the host on the occasions The
gentlemen are firm believers in cremation,
and have often verbally expressed their
opinions on the subject, beside stating their
desires in their last wills and testaments
The "White Caps" were evidently aware of
the fact, as the notices read:
If DR.. Y. and Lawyer Y. wish their bodies
cremated according to the expressed desires
in their last wills and testaments, they need
only continue their fourth floor "kneips,"
thereby compelling Mrs. Y, in her endeavor
to obtain sleep, to become food for the fes-
tive fly and the theme of their Joyous
mathis. By order of the White Caps

THIEvING AT NEW ORLEANS.
How They Cut Through the Wharf From

How They Cut Through the Wharf From
Below and Garry Off Goods.
t'The wharf at New Orleans is great place
for thieving," said an old river captain
yesterday. "It is built upon piles for two
miles along the river shore. The space is
open under the wharf, and it is not difficult
to navigate the entire length with boat.
The thieves post man on the wharf, to To-
cate the stuff, and then they work from be-
low. One day was sitting on a sack of
coffee, when 1 felt it slowly giving
away under me. thought it
was strange, and on investigation
found man in skiff under
the wharf He had bored hole through
the boards into the sack, and the coffee was
running into the boat. He made a great
haul, and it was useless to try to catch him.
At another time a large lot of hams were
unloaded on the wharf The owner left
them there for a day. When he came to
turn the boxes over they were empty. Big
holes in the wharf told the tale. The
chances are they were removed under the
noses of bystanders, and they didn't
notice it,
''To give you sample of the greed of
these people one day saw an italian with
a load of melons and fruit crossing the river
He got into the rough water from the wheel

Mr. Walker Says Grover Is Not as Popular
in West Virginia as He Was.
Henry S. Walker, the silver-tongued
Democratic orator of West Virginia and
formerly Secretary of State under Governor
Wilson, was at the ,Monongahela House
yesterday. He still wears immaculate
white ties, and is as courtly as of yore.
Everything is quiet nowadays in the
political world in my State" he said.
AFTER the exciting election of last year,
the people are attending to business and
leaving politics alone. The States coal
and lumber interests are rapidly being
developed, and the future is bright.
think as result of immigration in recent
years that the Democratic majority is being
slowly reduced. The newcomers along the
border and the Norfolk and Western Rail
road are mostly negroes and of Republican
persuasion. They move back and forward
over the line, but by the last election law
all danger from them has been corrected.
Only bona fide residents hereafter will be
allowed to vote
''The South is Democratic and always will
be while the present conditions exist. One
would imagine that with the heavy immi-
grafton into Sheffield, Birmingham
and other Southern iron centers
that change would be noticed,
but it is not SO. The Northern Republican
becomes a Democrat in the South 1t
would be against his interest to be anything
else. Twenty years ago the Republican
party in the South was made up of negroes
and carpet-baggers. They. gave it such
black eye that the party has never recovered.
In West Virginia some of the best people are
Republicans. Golf is their foremost man,
and is great on the stump. Mckinley is
paying him visit at present, and sup
pose is making arrangements to have Goff
help him in the Ohio election this fall He
couldn't get better man.
''We are not talking much of Presidential
candidates in the State now. The Demo-
Gratis favor free coinage, and Cleveland is
not nearly as popular as he was. Hill has
many admirers and so has German. I think
it is a stand off between the three named.
1 never hear Pattison, Campbell or Gray
mentioned in connection with the Presi-
dency. German will receive the solid sup
port of the people living in the section next
to Maryland As for the delegation, they are
always'accldental, and in West Virginia the
delegates are not instructed.
