Brazilian papers published shortly before
the outbreak Of the revolution shed soma
light upon the cause of that affair. There
was existing then bad feeling sbetween the
President and. Congress and members of
the latter were threatening to withdraw
because Congress was being coerced. There
were great fears then that IL congress was
dissolved and new election ordered Il
would be farce. Said the Rio News Of
October 10th: sit may be doubtful whether
a free election will be possible, even under
the new law, for the military and police
forces Of the country are still under tho
control Of the President and his Cabinet

1t speaks well for the law abiding char
acter Of the people of New Hampshire that
the law was allowed to take its course with
Almy. His crime was SO brutal, there was
such an entire absence Of extenuating cir
cnmstances, the circumstances under
which he was arrested furnished such un-
usual facilities for the excited people to
take the law into their own hands and in
dict summary punishment that it is little
short of wonderful that he should have
been permitted to live to defend himself in
court. It's doubtful IL there is single
State of the Union south of Mason and
Dixon's line where similar set OF circum-
stances would not have led to summary
execution by a mob, even through the
possession Of the criminal had involved
batteriDg down of jail or desperate fight
with the officers of the law.

Mills is supposed at present to have the
largest number of pledged supporters for
the Speakership. with Crisp second, aud
Springer, Bynum and the other aspirants
with few each. The supporters of none
Of the candidates except Mills and Crisp

want Cleveland renominated, and who are
probably in the majority, will sooner or

When the Farmers Alliance first started
the sub-treasury scheme was its chief cor
ner stone, so to speak, and such hurrah
was there over 1t that various and sundry
statesmen about the country were so anx-
ious to get on top Of what appeared to
them to bela great popular wave that they
also set themselves to inventing schemes
to help the "poor farmer" some o them
more absurd even than the sub-treasury
scheme. Probably the wave would have
moved along all right with these patriots
on top of 1t had there been another season
OF agricultural depression. But abundan,
crops and good prices suddenly converted
the poor farmer into the Independent citi

scheme began to decline. and the states

VICTIM OF DROWNING

Mrs. Caroline Riggs Found Drowned or Oyster Point-Supposed to Have
 Fallen Into the Water While
 Asleep.
 The dead body of Mrs. Caroline E. Riggs of 26 South Water street was found drowned near the dock adjoining George Smiths oyster house at Oyster Point yes- terday morning about 6 o'clock. Mrs. Riggs was widow nearly seventy years of age and resided with her daughter Ida, the wife of Joshua Chappell, an oysterman at 26 South Water street. She had been in poor health for some years and at times is said to have acted and spoken queerly. Sunday night at 9:3O o'clock she was in bed sleeping peacefully but at 5:3o o'clock yesterday morning when her daughter went up to her room to rouse her, she was missing. Search was made and at o'clock Edward Potter of 33 South Water. street found Mrs. Riggs dead body floating in the water right un- der the wharf which is just across the street from her home. The body was on the north side of the wharf, and not more than forty feet from the room in which the unfortunate woman had been sleeping.
 It is not known whether she fell into the water accidentally or whether she threw herself in with the intention of taking her life It is thought quite probable that she may have arisen in her sleep and wander ing out of the house, fallen into the water. | The place where the body was found is l only short distance from the spot where Mrs. Minors body was recovered the day previous

The Late Mrs. George A. Stevens.
 The following beautiful tribute to the memory of the late Mrs. Henrietta A. Ste- vens, wife of George A. Stevens, formerly of this city, is copied from the Mobile Item:
 Mrs. George A. Stevens, born in New Haven, Conn.,, September ,, 1S4O Died in Mobile, Ala, January 14 1891.
 "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall
 see God.''
 No lines more appropriate than the above could be applied to the beloved and lamented subject of this notice. Only short while ago she came to us @ stranger from her northern home and can truthfully say that never @ south ern flower that bloomed here, in all it's purity, could have been more tenderly nutured within the garden of our hearts than this fair blossom from the far-of north. Gentle, loving, kind and true, she won the respect, confidence and love of all. Today there is vacant chair at hearthstone, a gentle voice is missing, a cherished form has home above where none but the pure in heart shall enter, she is praying, pleading for the dear ones left behind, and one day. by following the beautiful example she led us here. trust we will meet her there. Then, fond husband and loving sisters in the midst of your heartrending sad raise your thoughts upward and look above your idolized wife and sister is there-follow the path she points out to you and one day your weeping will be changed to rejoicing, your sad ness to joy. In that better and brighter life be- yond the grave you will be reunited, never to part again.
