Under the head of "a Glorious In
auguration" the New York Tribune of
last week editorilly set forth its idea of
the proper method of inducing Cover
nor-elect Roswell p. Flower into office.
The facetious wind-up of the T,i6unc's
article will be appreciated by every
reader After denying an imaginary re-
port that the governor.elect had con-
tracted for the erection Of rail fence in
front of the capitol at Albany, up to
which he was to ride solitary and unat-
tended, hitch his pony after the manner
of Thomas Jefferson and be inaugurated
without any ceremoney or frills, the
1rt6une's humorous editor continues:
1t was said that there were to be no
guards of honor no military trappings,
no troops of linterrifled Democrats and
inqulsitive children, no cannons, sabres
and trumpets, no bayonets, banners and
bass-drums The situation was painted as
black us night, and the whole common
wealth was put in anticipatory mourning.
But the clouds have been suddenly riven
asunder, and in the keen bright sunlight
of publicity appears the authoritative an
nouncement that Mr.. Flowers inaugura-
ton will be worthy of the successor of
David Bennett Hill.

unnecessary anguish which has recently
pervaded the populaee there is reason to
believe that the rites will be celebrated on
II scale of unparalleled grandeur and mag
niiicence. The parade will resemble
Roman triumph. Mr.. Flower will be
seated in a chariot constructed SO far as
possible in imitation Of wigwam, and
drawn by eight Bengal tigers expressly
imported for the purpose. Immediately
behind the chariot, probably in chains,
though that detail has not been finally
settled, will walk Mr. Grover Cleveland
and the editor Of 'the New York Tines
the Etening POST will accept an
invitation to ride backwards at the
tail end Of the procession on blind and
exceptionally vicious mule, which will be
trained to lash out at the bystanders and
bray incontinently. No place or role has
yet been assigned to Governor Hill, but il
has been suggested that he might like to
stand on platform drawn by himself--a
feat well calculated to display his agility
to the best advantage. 1t would crafty
the managers exceedingly if General Jones
would consent to appear in his great act of
| paying the freight but it is not supposed
that his health will permit.
Altogether, as must be evident to our
readers from this hasty and imperfect
| synopsis OF the arrangements, the show
on January list will be we'll worth the price
| of admission.

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 1.-THE midnight

s.. Paul road was robbed near Western
Union Junction at o'clock this morning.
The bbers are supposed to have boarded
the train at the Junction. As soon as it
open .prairie, they stopped it and broke
into the express car. Ii is probable that
the total amount Of the booty will amount
to. $4,000, and possibly more as the train
which was held up was the one which
generally curried all the money received
by Milwaukee banks from the east IN the
morning

CHICAGO, Nov. PA special from
Duluth, Mimi, says: There was an'exelt-
ing episode just this side of Old Superior
on the Duluth, South shore & Atlantic
train that arrived here this morning. A
New Yorker who does not want his name
to get out, had been PLAYING cards with a
couple Of sharpers, wien one Of them in
simulated that the New Yorker did not
have any money. The latter drew out
5000 in bills to give his accuser the lie, and
the latter grabbed the roll Thereupon the
third man, a pal OF the thief, seized the
latter and told the victim to call the CON
dnctor and have him arrested. The New
Yorker bit and while he was gone the
thieves stopped the train and jumped off.
Conductor Sims and a dozen others gave
chase. and after the conductor had fired
two shots in the air the pal of the thief
threw up his hands. The confederate es-
capped and took the money with him.

BL.arsE A CANDIDATE.


natiOn--Alrafu TO ASK the secretary
What He Means.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov. ll.-Presidcnt
Harrison laughs at the Presidential boOms
of Sherman and Mckinley as he would at
a Presidential boom for Foraker. An Ohio
man by birth and acquaintance he knows
Ohio politics almost as well as he knows
Indiana politics, and realizes that the
Ohio delegation in the next Republican
national convention will not be united in
support of any Ohio candidate.
The fact is that Harrison realizes, and so
tells his friends, that the question of who
shall be nominated by the Republicans
next year depends entirely upon Blaine.
II Blaine wants the nomination he will get
it,
Harrison says to his friends that il
Blaine does not want it it will do to talk
about other candidates. Harrison has had
no intimation from Blaine as to his intcn-
tons. Blaine has not mentioned the
Presidency to him, and Harrison has
feared to breach it lest Blaine should be
indignant and devote himself to'preyent-
ing Harrison from getting denomination.
But Blaine's silence, which Harrison
begins TO think may not be broken till
after the convention, impresses Harrison.
as it does everybody else, with the belief
that Blaine has determined to accept the
nomination. Harrlsonis chief hope now
lies in the possibility that some unfayor-
able change may occur in Dlaines health
which would compel him to publicly with
draw.
