Growing Hostility to Governor
Pattisou.

Growing Hostility to Governor
Pattisou.
Last week Governor Pattison offered
MIR. RobinFon a minor clerkship. The
profIer was CURLY declined. Editor
Frank J. Fitzsimmons, also we'll
known among state politicians, who
is warm friend Of Sheriff Robinson,
has a-tonished his friends throughout
the county by vicious attack on the
Governor through the medium of his
paper, the Scranton Netgs. 1t says:
"Pattisou has never been anything
but double-de9liug, deceptive, mug
Wumpish, arrogant individual, with
the thinuast veBeeTiug OF Democracy
Of any man living who pretends TO be-
lieve in the principles Of the party OF
Jefferson. He seemed to labor under
the unfortunate rlusion that he is a
tlifle better than his party, that geU-
uine Democrats must acQuiesce in his
doings, and that it is the essence of
craftsmanship to flatter aud surfeit
traitors and kickers. Previous to his
! last nomination, his ginger bread sup
| porters and hired lickspittles were
continually apologizing for his career
when Governor before. They declared
! that he would be q Democrat if elected
| again. Well, he was reelected; has
| he changed any? He is even worse
Khan he was before. His every action
seems to be to please mugwumps and
. lazy gang of idlers known as labor
/ refOrmers.

| the vortex of oblivion and beyond the
| possibilities of 4, surreCtiOn. He has
broken every pledge made them, and
| crowned his treachery to his party by
appointing a majority of mugwumps
on the Worlds Fair commission"
THE COMMISSION APoLoGIzED FOR.
Poltsviue Chronicle.
Smarting under the criticisms to
which the Worlds Fair Commission
has been subjected a bulletin has been
issued by Gov. Pattison giving some
analysis of its personnel. It will BE-
noticed that labor, law and finance;
steel, railroads and agricultural; oil,
manulactur. and newspapers; lum-
her, trade and art are all Represented
But coal-where is its representa-.
Ftive?
Pennsylvania last year produced ~
million tons of coal with 5000 900, 900.
1t employed an army of 10, 600 men,
and twice as many more of the people
of the state were dependent on the
trade.
Was an industry like this unworthy
of notice; so inconsequent as to be
overlooked? We may be preiudiced.
Our surroundings may influence the
opinion that the Governor made a
great mistake in neglecting to put a
representative man from this region
on the list.
The analysis published on the first
page of the Chronicle o,day is the
most positive evidence of the charge
that has been made that the commits
sion was made up not to represent
Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania in
terests, but the political purposes OF
the administration.
COMMENCING HIMSELF STRONGLY.
st. Louis Globe Democrat.
Governor Pattison has made his first
bid for the Democratic nomination for
President by vetoing the Compulsory
education bill recently passed by the
Pennsylvania Legislature.

A Texas Ranchman Was At
tackled by the Animal
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, July 9.-Alvino
Alsniz, Mexican ranchman of Rio
Grande City, riding after cattle two
days ago, camped at night by a creek
running through tangle of musquite
He tethered his horse, cooked his
supper, and was squatted by the fire
smoking the Inevitable cigarette, when
mad coyote sprang upon him from
the darkness.
The little beast, with every hair
standing on end and its jaws dropping
foam, full in the face, fastened its teeth
in his nose. Alaniz was thrown back
ward, and, sprawled at full length,
vainIy tried to defend himself with his
hands
The coyote snapped its teeth through
the skin in half dozen places, and
the mans face was soon covered with
blood AS he struggled to his feet,
freDzied with terror, his assailant dis
appeared.
The ranchman reached Rio Grande
City the next morning and was treated

Mad wolves and coyotes in South.
western Texas at this season are no
means uncommon. Three years ago
Y. G. Chamberlain, son-in. law of the
millionaire ranchman, Richard King,
was attacked while on horseback by a
mad wolf. He went to Paris as fast as
steam could take him, was treated by
Pasteur, and has not suffered any
inconvenience.

A SLAVES REVENGE.
A Method Of Vengeance as Pecu
liar as it Was Deadly.

a M9tnOd OF vengeance as F6Cu-
liar as it Was Deadly.
In Hayti aud Martinique the venom
of the terrible serpent indigenous to
those islands, the formidable fer de
lance, has been often employed by the
negroes in disposing of their enemies.
A horrible but well authenticated
instance of negro ingenuity and mai.
evidence is told in Martinique. A
huge negro, recently imported from
the Guinea coast, had been whipped
by the order of his master, one OF
the great planter princes of the island
while it was under French rule. The
victim made no compile int, but medi-
tated revenge
BY long search he found the lair of a
pair of serpents in the garden adjacent
to the house. Watching his oppOrtu-
nifty, he killed one and dragged its
body to the house through a window
that WAS always open, and into. the
bedroom of the beautiful daughter OF
the planter. He dragged it to the bed
lifted the coverings and cOiled the
reptile on the sheet. When this Wai
done he carried the dead snake away
and cast il into an adjacent stream,
As night approached the serpent
mate followed the trail, crept through
the open window and to the bed of tht
planters daughter. The latter, hal
awake, made a motion to brush ava.
the intruder. Instantly the fang
| were buried in her neck, and in a few
| hours she was corpse.

Names Ex-Ohief Justice Passes Away in
Bangor, Saturday.

Appleton died suddenly to day at IL 80 at
his home, after short illness from a cold
He was nearly 81 years of age.
The Hon. John Appleton was promi-
nent figure in Maine for many years In
early life he moved from Sebec to Bangor.
where he at once took high stand at the
bar. He ably filed the office of reporter
of decisions of the supreme judicial court
for one year, and in 1852 he was appointed
judge of the court by Gov. John Hub
bard, the Democratic executive of the
State, Notwithstanding he was a Wing and
had opposed the election of His Excel
lency. This was very high testimonial
to his fitness and qualifications for this
high Office. In 1862 Judge Appleton was
promoted to be Chief Justice. serving I'M
til the expiration of his term in 1888 For
ty volumes of reports of decisions of cases
heard before and decided by the court
were published while he was Associate
Justice and Chief Justice thereof
He presided over this court for twenty
one consecutive years. In the admin
istration Of this great trust he was
eminently capable, and faithful, and hon
est. His legal learning was profound and
abundant; his judgment was sound and
accurate, unbiased and impartial He
shrank from no labor, however arduous.
but rather seemed to court and perform it
for the very love of labor itself He la
bored also from the love of justice, which
he loved most Of all.
