SPOKANE, Wash, Sept. 24.-In the
convention of Democratic clubs today
the following dispatch from ex-President
Cleveland was read:
New YORK, Sept. "a, 1891.
Henry Drum, President, etc.
Please present my congratulations and
best wishes to the workers in the Demo-
cratic cause who meet today in your
state. / hope their faith in the intelli-
gence of their countrymen will induce
them to rest their hopes of success upon
the advocacy of wholesome principles
and measures which are truly
Democratic, as we'll as upon
the thorough party organization which
their association OF Democratic clubs is
go well calculated to subserve. The vim
dication of our principles can be safely
left to the plain people OF the land when
they are aroused to theughtfulness and
patriotic action.

A secularist "ChristenIng.n

On Sunday evening, at the Hall Of
Science in London, Il. W. Foote, presi-
dent of the National Secular society,
performed ceremony which has of late
become almost obsolete among Free
thinkers-''the naming of infants" to
wit: The parents appeared on the plat
form with tAeir child, a baby Of three
months. Mr.. Foote briefly explained
that the custom of publicly naming chill
dren, which had been frequently OBJ
served by Mr.. Bradlaugh, Mrs. Besant
and other Secularist lecturers, was in no
sense intended to be a travesty of any re-
ligious function. If parents desired their
offspring to be publicly identified with
the Freethought party, there was no rea-
son why this should not be done.
Then MIR. Foote, having kissed the
baby with due solemnity, named it
"Carlile Bradlaugh Owen Golding." The
first of this portentous string Of "given
names" is derived from Richard Carlile,
who suffered ten years Of imprisonment
early in this century for asserting the
right Of free publication. Mr.. Foote ex-
pressed hope that when the child be-
comes old enough to understand the sig-
nificance of the names he bears, he may
prove worthy of them.-Cor. Public
Opinion.

ST. LOUIS. Sept. 24.-The joint com
mittee of the Western Passenger associ-
alton and Trans Missouri and Trans
Continental association today resumed
consideration of the change in Colorado,
Utah and California rates, and after a
long discussion change was found inn
practicable. The Maple Leaf, Illinois
Central, Missouri Pacific, Wabash, Den
yer and Rio Grande, Frisco, Union
Pacific, Burlington and Mis-
souri, River and Colorado Mid
land were represented. Resolutions
were adopted recommending the use of
continuous passenger tickets from Chi
cago and st. LOUIS, the transcend nGinental
eastern gateways, to Colorado common
points and all points west thereof. The
representatives Of, the Colorado. Mis-
souri, River and Utah lines also tried to
arrange for division of rates, but final
action was deferred, owing to the alb
scence of some of the interested parties.

A Seaside Mermaid.

Binks and his wife had returned from q
four weeks sojourn at the seaside, and he
stood in front of his home in the suburbs
giving his friend Peters graphic account
of his vacations pleasures.
'Went in bathing every day." he eX-
claimed enthusiastically.
"Ahl" responded Peters, 'wife go in tooP"
"Oh, yes, every day." said the returned
vacationist.
"Can she swimf'' qderied friend Peters,
wit0some interest.
+ moo, she can't,n was the reply. "She
tried and tried to learn, but somehow she
didn't get the hang of it. She said she
couldn't get the right kick, and let her
think that was the reason, bat the fact
was'-and here he looked up at the house
and sank his voice to q hoarse respiration.
''The fact was she couldn't keep her mouth
shut long enough to take four strokes be-
fore she'd have some fool remark to make,
when-kerWash- swallow a whole
wave and go plump to the bottom" and
then he winked rapidly as the scene was
recalled to his mind, and he went into the
house chuckling with pleasure.
But he hadn't noticed woman's face
peering out of the curtains of q raised
window.
Friend Peters saw the front door open
quickly, saw hand reach out and grasp
the seaside boarder by the collar, saw the
heels of that individual crack his back as
he shot through the door, which slammed
behind his vanishing form, heard wild
and stifled noise as of a body being hauled
over the hatrack and banged against the
wall, and heard muffled voice like unto
that of an enraged woman say:
''Take that back and I'll let you up, you

Once there was lawyer who closed up
an estate case, but he died many years ago.
Hewas young man. He had studied law
in his father office, and his father finally
retired and gave the business to him. One
day, less than week after the old gentle
man had retired, the young man came
home and proudly said:
"Father, you know that old Gilpin estate
case that you have been trying for years
and years to settle?" t.u..
YES" answered the father with a sug-
gestion of a smile. ,-.~. S

MADRID, Sept 24.-In a railroad dis
aster which occurred today near Bur
Cos, fifteen persons were killed and
thirty injured. 1t is thought ten of the
injured will die. The collision was due
to the blunder of telegraph operator,
by signalling that the line wag clear.
The station master at Burgess has at
tempted to commit suicide. The cabi-
net at meeting today decided to insti-
tute an inquiry into the accident, and
has ordered the company to abolish the
present obsolete system of selegraphs,
and also to increase the number OF sig
nal men employed, it having been dem
onstrated that number of the present
employees work sixteen hours day.
LONDON, Sept. PA dispatch to
the Standard from San Sebastian, says:
"It is reported that Seymour Lacas and
Maurice Long, the latter British vice
consul at Malaga, were killed in the
railroad collision near Burgos. Several
entire families perished, including the
Judge OF Victoria, with his wife
and daughter. Most of the pass
engers were asleep at the time Of
the collision. Twenty dead and twenty
three injured, four of whom have since
died, were taken from the debris. Many
children were killed. The queen upon
receiving the news OF the disaster,
stopped the fetes in honor Of her daugh
ter's birthday, and requested the minis
ter of justice to send all the details.

KANSAS Cry, Sept. PA special to

world is like Chandler today, for which
all other towns may be glad. The loca-
ton Of Chandler is on a high bluff,
rougher than the high seas in a storm.
Great rocks are scattered about all over
the townsite, and deep gullies cut it
into pieces. The rival town on an ad-
joining half of quarter section, is on
level ground. On Tuesday men rushed
into it and drove stakes. After sleeping
out all night Tuesday, tortured with
hunger, thirst, and a most ravenous
species of mosquitoes, hundreds began
to realize that they had enough and be-
gan to leave. One man yesterday
offered two let's in. the Chandler annex
for ham sandwich, without finding
purchaser. The townais overrun with
gamblers of every description. There
has been no trouble yet.

She Makes Bid for the Democratic
National Convention.
New York, Sept. 24.AFranklin K.
Lane, editor OF the Daily News. Of Ia
coma, Washington, is in the city. His
mission here, he announces, is to secure
the holding Of the Democratic national
convention of '92 in Tacoma. The prop
osition is to have the delegates to the
convention carried in, four special
trains that shall start simultaneously
from Portland, Me-, New York, Wash
ington and some point in Florida.
These will stop at the most important
cities to take up the delegates from the
several states. While the delegates are
en- route and while at Tacoma they will
be entertained by the Democrats of
Washington. The new exposition build
ing will easily accommodate the conven-
tion, and there will be plenty of accom-
modation in the hotels of Tacoma.
