ton special to the Commercial Gazette,
says: at is not improbable that public
sentiment may produce a novelty In
Ohio politics." said Representative
Thompson, of Ohio. "Just now the

newspapers are agitating the matter.

friends of Senator Sherman will

Governor Foraker may possibly be a

who could be persuaded to accept the

SOME SWISS ENCIrED

Countryman to the New York Author

WAsHINGToN, March 22.-Word has
been received by cable from Berne,
Switzerland, that great excitement ex-
lists in that city over the proposed ex-
tradition of a Swiss citizen named
Piguet. wanted by the city OF New York
for embezzlement. The people OF Berne,
it is reported, insist that Piguet shall
not be d, livered to the United States,
and threaten trouble between the two
countries If the demand is insisted upon.
The State Department has received no
notice Of any complications over the
surrender of Piguet. The last official
information from Berne was to the effect
that the Supreme Court had affirmed the
decree of the Federal Council to deliver
up Figuet on March IS, and this deoi-
sion, it is supposed, is causing a pro-

ESrEE's BULL
The California Judges Faux Pas With
the President.

WASHINGTON, March 90. - Charley
FELTON,, who was elected in California to
succeed the late Senator Hearst, is a
keen, bright little fellow, but a hide
bound protectionist and an ardent friend
of the monopolicS. He is worth about a
million, but guards his money carefully
sQuandering but little Of IL without Le
sees something In sight Before he left
Washington about the first part OF last
month, he told your correspondent that,
In the event of Senator Hearst's death,
he intended to make the fight TO succeed
him from "eend TO eend." He kept his
word, and Is entitled to credit for his
pluck and energy. Hardly any one here
thought that "Charley," as he is famil-
iarly known, would be elected, and his
victory surprised his friends more than
his few enemies. While Senator Stan
ford was not exactly linked to Mr.. Fell
toms candidacy, still he did not oppose
his election, and let him have full swing.
The President will no doubt be satisfied
with Mr.. FELTON,. II, however, Judge
Estee, who was Mr. Felton's principal
competitor, had succeeded, the President
would probably have shed few crocodile
tears. President Harrison has never for
given Judge Estee for very bad break
the latter once made. The Judge was
the chairman OF the committee appoint
ed by the Republican National Conven-
tion to wait on Gen, Harrison and Off
cially notify him of his nomination. The
committee journeyed to Indianapolis
and were received at the Harrison man
sion. BY reason of the fact that he was
the chairman OF the committee, the
Judge acted as spokesman. Before
proceeding with his speech he buttoned
up his Prince Albert, struck dignitied
attitude, and looking Gen. Harrison
square in the face, said, with much i'm
presSiveness:
"Sir, the names Of many distin-
guiShed men Of our party were consid
cred in our deliberations, and yet you
were chosen"
To say that Judge Estee put his foot
in IL is to draw IL mildly. When he had
concluded the above sentence, there
was noticeable shuflllng of feet by the
other members of the committee. Gen.
Harrison blushed crimson, and there
was an uneasy feeling generally on the
part Of all present.
Judge Estee did not realize that he
had made break until he left Gen.
HarrisOn'S house, when he was told OF
ii. The Judge went back that evening
and told Gen. Harrison that he was rat
tied, and asked pardon for his speech.

students from Columbia College were in

the orchestra. They not only paid their
compliments 10 Little Helen" but
commented in an audible manner upon
the work of the other artists. 1t the
act where the young man makes inef-
fectual effort to get his arms around the

roared with a roar that shook the roof,
ending up with three cheers for Diss
Debar and three more for 1.-The man
who tried to hug her. The girls
with the calico divided skirts also
caught the boys eyes. 1--WE want the
girls" was the concerted cry, which
continued for several minutes after they
had finished theiI dance and left the
stage. 1t was in the final act, however,
where the visitors showed their apprec-
iation To the full limit. The elephan-
tine figure Of the leading lady showed
itself in tights and such how greeted
the entrance. Then one.of the boys in
the box To the right tossed an old pair
of black trousers onto the stage just in
front OF DiSS de Bar. She looked at
the garment little while in amaze
ment, and then stepping forward,
kicked it TO one side. The boys yelled
for speech and the actress stepped up
TO the footlightS. "As this is the for
um," she said, give such a senator a
chance" The boys did not know what
it meant, but it sounded all right and 1t
served 10 silence them.
