And Win the frixe-Tresbies
He VIII Encouster.

WAsHlSoTox, Oct. There ls In thls
city considerable discussion Of the part
Ex-speaker Reed is 10 --~,.;s IN the poiat-
ical events OF next ytsr. lie Is un-
doubtedly in training for the Presi-
dency, and while the Republicans are
not yet quite ready for . coup d'etat
the National convention will serve its
purpose in bringing Reed forward TO
the notice OF the delegates. He Will
expect 10 he permanent chairman OF
the convention, and will probably be
able to get the place. He is not on
speaking terms with either of the Maine
Senators, and they will probably see 10
it that he is not chosen as \ delegate,
but it will be an easy task to secure
substitution. Then he will come 70 the
convention with all the glory be may
have accumulated in fighting the Demo-
Gratis in Congress, ana will 60 into the
campaign for any candidate with the
determination to keep up with the pro-
cession. A Cabinet place might be
forced upon him II Republican were
elected and Blaine should be dead d--for
he cannot expect to advance wnlie
Blaine lives and has power. One
trouble that Reed will encounter Will
be the resentment that he has. excited
in several Congresses from men who
have not relisiled his scorn. lie treats
all persons who disagree with him as
personal enemies, ano has visited some
of these offenders with punishment.
He will always have many active ene-
mics.

New York. oct. IA 7-months-old
child Of Professor Cyril EAfricain, of
Hampstead, l.. L., has been asleep for
150 hours continuously The child was
taken sck with hopping cough and
bronchitis twelve days ago. Last Thurs
day night the attendants imagined that
the child was improving. from the fact
that 1t went to sleep, but when the
sleep continued over twelve hours the
parents became alarmed and attempted
by every possible means to arouse the
child. Their efforts were unsuccessful.
AZ stated intervals nour;shment has
been administered to the child. which
it retains, and appears to be growing
stronger. Occasionally sigh is heard
and slight movement Of foot or arm
are the only Signs OF life.

COTHAM'S LATEST SCHEME.
New Jersey Talent Gather Funds fol
the Grant Monument


NEW YORK, Oct. New York is
going to make another bluff at raising
a few more dollars to pay the expenses
of the managers and committee of the
Grant monument project tomorrow
night, and if there are enough un-
sophisticated strangers in town little
money may be available for the pur-
chase OF new plans for the monument
itself. The scheme to be worked Is in
line Of the popcorn shows which have
proved so popular as q means of IN
creasiug the fund, although this one is
of higher order than anything pre-
yiously essayed. It will be an enter
rainrment 1T Madison Square Garden
and :. G.. Pratt's Allegory, 1.-THE War
in Song" is TO be the attraction. About
1000 singers, mostly from New Jersey,
and a big orchestra, will develop the
beauty of Mr.. Pratrs work. An at
tempt was made to have New York
singers, but with characteristic avarice
they wanted rake dowa of the re-
ceipts. As several managers and hang
ers-on will carve out a big slice of the
profits, il was found that there would
not be enough left to pay the talent
and what is left after expenses" are
paid will he given to the monument
fund, after the divy among the "pro-
moters' of course.
Three performances of "The War in
Song" will be gwen and it is expected
that $4,000 will be realized. The
monument fund may get one-fourth of
this amount. The monument fund
now amounts to Sl55, 900.
