sloY.nson,. War RECORD.

Hep York Advertiser lind. DerL1
When general" stevenson's name
was added to the Cleveland ticket it
was felt that the Democrats had acted
wisely in giving their second honor to a
man with noble military record. Sub.
seouently it was discovered that Adlai
was only IN assistant postmaster gen
eral, and that he had rendered no sery-
ice whatever in the army during the re-
bellion.
Later on tho charge was made that
Adlai was member OF the knights oil
the Golden Circle" the secret organiza'
ton OF northern copperheads which OPP
posed the war for the Union, and that
his record was that OF q disloyal man.
This Adlat has felt called upon to
vigorously deny. He declares that
when the war broke out he was a
Douglas man, and that he made speeches
10 encourage enlistment. He took the
stump in Illinois and helped one Of his
neighbors raise regiment. de went
10 the depot on several occasions and
cheered the boys as they departed for
the front. But he did not share in their
glory. He preferred to remain at home
and seek civic Office. He was not draft
ed, although exposed more than once.
It would thus appear that the military
end OF the Democratic ticket vests in
Mr.. Cleveland. Grover did not 90 to
war, but he was drafted. He sent a
substitute. Nobody knows what be-
came OF the bstitute, but, constructive.
", he was in the army at least two years.
But Grover made no war speeches.
Neither did he encourage enlistments
or advocate drafts. In this respect his
record is not quite as good as Adlafs.,
Altogether. the Democrats cannot be
accused OF putting military ticket into
the field this year, and the soldier vote
will be no more with them now than 1t
was in 1888.

Way Down South.

The southern Democratic newspapers
would like the Alliance managers to
understand that it is not the negroes,
but the white farmers who will be
drawn into the Third party movement
and induced to vote that ticket. Hence
there ia trace OF briny tears in the
voice Of the southern Democratic press.
In this Higher latitude Of the sunny
south we can hardly appreciate the sur
prise Of the Democrats nearer to the
Gulf OF Mexico who see at last thing
Of real substance which threatens the
supremacy of the Democratic party in
the region which is its only hope for q
base Of operations.
The Republican majority down there
they can take care of, because that ma
jority rests on the colored man, whose
case they attend to in the highest
style OF the art A smash-up in their
ownranks, which drives white mon to
vote another ticket, is a thing of quite
different aspect.
When these white men go to the
polls to vote the Peoples party ticket,
won't they insist upon their right to
vote as they please7 And having cast
their votes, won't they insist upon hav-
ing them counted US they have been
cast? And if their old Democratic as-
sociates try to treat them as they have
been treating colored electors, won't
there be the sort OF row that wiiispht
things wide open?
Some of the very men who arc active
in the Peoples party movement have
played the game OF REFRESHING votes
themselves. II that game be tried on
them, won't it be case of Greek meet
ing Greek2 Itlooks as though the cleo
ton news from the far south may have
more than ordinary interest.

the free trade parrot shrieks, 1.-THE tariff

delegation in national Democratic
convention sends back the answer, "a
tariff that protects is unconstitutional.
We have in Wheeling some potteries
and some potters. They are here be-
cause Of the protective tariff established
and maintained by the Republican
party in spite of the organized, unyield-
ing, desperate opposition Of the Demo-
cratic party.
Under the last tariff the Democratic
party made this country did not estab-
lish potteries or any other industries.

an incident occurred which, while anus.

glaring eyes, appeared in the doorway,
causing a solemn silence to fall over the
assembly. 1t paused, looked about, and
slowly swishing its tail to and fro ad-
vanced toward the space between the
prisoner and the jury's box. The 81.
lence became oppressive, and the Judge,
lawyers, jurors and prisoner craned THEN
necks and with open mouths gazed at
the creature.
Would the %apparition approach the
prisoner to be touched?' If so the man
was innocent and would be freed.
After standing as if transfixed for sec

with a superhuman effort stretched
forth his hand and touched the glossy

The two pretty little children of David
Wismer, of Quakertown, figured in the
role of the Babes in the Wood a few
days ago, but were rescued before the
birds had occasion to cover them up
with leaves. They suddenly took it in
their heads, while playing in the street,
to make a pilgrimage, and set out with
no further preliminaries than the prince
in the fairy tales. They came at last to
the road at Perkasie. several miles
away, but still were unweary, and kept
on their journey over the hills. Wonder
ing farmers gaped at them as they
passed.
The little ones soon struck the woods
and wandered around among the trees
until dusk deepened into evening, when
they composed themselves c~omplacently
for slumber beneath the overhanging
branches. Meanwhile the frightened
father had spread the alarm and was
fast on their heels. He traced his babes
to the woods, where he awoke them,
and took them home with him hall

A novel clock is now being exhibited
by the Matchmaker union in London.
1t is of wood, beautifully carved and
stands six feet in height. The case is a
perfect fort in miniature, and instead OF
a bell and striking hammer the hours
are announced by a bugler, who energies
from a dos at one side of the fort and
blows the call to assemble and march.
Almost instantly doors open on ali
sides. A regiment of automatic sol
diers, six abreast, march out, wheel to
the left, stop a few seconds to mark
time" and then march through another
part of the fortress to the barracks.
These marches and countermarches oc-
cur each hour. If they come out to an
nounce the hour of l o'clock, one soldier
fires his tiny gun. At 9 o'clock two sol
diers fire their pieces, increasing with
the hour until the twelve leaders fir.

A clothing dealer says that about one
fifth of the masculine portion of the city's
population go through the winter with
out ~overcoats. In most instances the
cause is the lack of money to make
purchase, but there are men who are
able to buy but who refuse to wear q
top coat. Some of these prefer two oil
more suits of underclothing to an over
coat. A great many whose occupation
keeps them indoors constantly invest
their money in street a rides IN cold
days and get along well enough without
the big coat.

of more than one o at a time. He

James Johnston, the man whose back
was broken last summer by being thrown
from a hand a on the Beech Creek rail
road, died on Saturday at his home, neal

the township overseers of the poor. The
circumstances attending the burial are
noteworthy on account of the difficulties

wild, lonely spot, remote from Other
houses and almost inaccessible.
The only approach to it is by narrow,
rickety foot bridge which spans the
creek, which on Saturday was swollen
by the recent rains to a raging torrent.
The coffin had to be carried across the
bridge, and the task, after several at.
tempts, was accomplished by making a
harness of straps fastened to each end of
the coffin and buckled around the shout
ders of two men, who by clinging to the
single handrail succeeded in gettin-
across, although the frail bridge swaye

swift current splashed over it.
After the body was placed in the COT
fin the men started back. They found
that with the additional weight of the
corpse the bridge would not bear them,
and, after several Intellectual attempts
to carry it over, they finally got it over
by rigging a harness to the ~stoutest man,
who then dragged it oyer with much
difficulty and peril.
There was no minister present, no
mourners and no funeral services were
held over the poor fellows body.-Phila

A Sleep Walking Sunday School Teacher.
A young lady of this place who is
treasurer of a mission band in one Of GU
Sunday schools, and who had about
five dollars of the bands money in hei
possession, quietly performed a feat the
other night hat was quite dangerous
The lady referred to arose at n late hour
dressed herself, went to the bureau
where she had placed the five dollars
and took it to a little room in the house
which the family did not occupy. Gath
ering together a few old skirts she wrap
ped the money up in them and then Sc,
curely tied it with a string and placed it
a dark, hidden corner.
After this was accomplished she went
into her brothers ROOM, took his loaded
revolver and started for the yard. 1t is
not known just how long she was out OF
doors, but the next morning the revolver
was found in n barrel at the rear of thu
lot. When the revolver was discovered
in the barrel it dawned upon the young
lady that perhaps some person had beer
in the house and taken her mission
money, and she quickly went to tn,
bureau where she had the money con
cealed. On reaching the drawer sh,
found that it had disappeared. A thor
ough search was given and the money
found in the place above mentioned
