ARMY AND NAVY,


q Can't. Frank Kidder Upton, 1St ". s. Cav,
having been found by an Army Retiring Board
incapacitated for active service, on account Of
disability incident to the service, by direction
of the President has been placed on the retired
list. Capt. Upton enlisted in tho 18th Cal. early
in the war, and was mustered out q Second
Lieutenant in 1866. He was appointed Second
Lieutenant 1st Cav, in 1867, promoted First
Lieutenant in 1869, and Captain IN 1852.
Representative Herbert, of Alabama, Chair
man of the Committee on Naval Affairs, intro
dueed bill last week in the House to increase
the enlisted force of the Navy not exceeding
1000 men Of which not less than l 500 OF whom
shall be apprentices. The increase of the num-
Der Of ships in the new Navy makes this meas
ure positive necessity, rs many of the vessels
have had to 20 to sea without their quotas Of
sailors.
Last week Secretary of War Elkins s;nt to
the Senate letter recommending an amend
meut to existing laws TO provide that an en-
listed man who has served as such % years or
more in the army or marine corps, either as
private or nOn-cOmmissioned officer, or both,
may, upon application to the President, be
placed on the retired list. Ii the enlisted man
had active war service during the late war,
such service is to be computed as double time
in counting the % years necessary TO ontitle
him 10 retirement. The present law entities al
enlisted man to retire after 80 years Of service.
While il is regarded as beneficial 70 individuals,
it Is said 10 be Of little real advantage to the
efficiency Of the army. The law practically
retires only the veteran nOn-eommisslOned Of
1cers. for few priyates can endure 30 years mill
turv service.

shn Hrrnniiz.d HIM.

A queer case has been brought TO the at
tention Of the authorities in New York City.
A Mrs MARTHA Trip some time ago went crazy
over spiritualism, hvpnotized her husband,
James B. Trip. making him servile TO her
whims, and in tine eudeavOr to make medium
of him nearly starved him, rs she did not con-
slider it necessary for medium to have food
and drink.
Mrs. Trips boarding house-keeper COM
plained to the police, and the result Of tho
whole matter was that Yrs. Trip has boon
sent to the Bellevue Hospital, insane ward, and
Mr.. Tripp is with his friends and all right
again.
Tripp is 55 years old, and a native Of Cleve-
land. o. Early i'm life he became an inventor,
and helped Gibbs to make the first wooden
model for his sewing machine. He is the in-
ventOr of the Leader machine About IL years
ago he was an expert tor the White Sewing
Machine Co. at Cleveland. He then went to
California, where he met his wife. She had o
good voice and was ambitious to be singer.
So he sent her to Milan for three years. Then
he organized grand opera company, and sank
all his property, amounting to about SlO,OOOs
in it.
Some time ago Mrs. Tripp went to California,
and on her return became infatuated with
spiritualism. She thought mediums did not
need 70 eat, and she would not let her husband
eat anything TO speak OF. She fell i'll and no
cared for her. This greatly weakened his sya-
tenn. and il is said that them FOR the hrsG Una
she began to byPnOtize him.

pn11rtcAI NOTES

A Democratic paper in Chicago says that the
Democratic party has had yeaTuing for New
York for nearly 30 years, and have responded
time and again 10 the appeals Of that State to
recognize its commanding position. But what
have been the results? In 1864 Mai. Gen. Me-
CleIlan, nominally Of New Jersey, but practi-
cally a New Yorker-defeat. In 1868 HoratiO
Seymour-defeat In 1872 Horace Greeley
defeat In 1876 Samuel J. Tilden-and victory
turned to defeat. In 1880 Gen. Hancock &C.
credited 20 Pennsylvania, but practically a
New Yorker-defeat. In 1884 Grover Cleye-
laut. and, wonderful to relate,-victOTy. In
1858 Grover Cleveland, and, wonderful to re-
late-defeat.
The Chicago Herald says Of Gen. John NJ
Palmer: Palmer is a man Of the people, brave
rs lion, honest as truth, pure as refined gold.
His nomination would electriiy the country
and stimulate Democrats 20 put forth their
greatest efforts It would relieve the Demo
cratic managers of vexing bTOis and ntFigues
in New York. for it would transfer the battle
ground TO the great Northwest. where II should
properly be fought. With Palmer at the head
Of the ticket we would have New York, New
Jersey. Connecticut and Indiana already won,
and, with the gallant fighting he would direct
and inspire, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan and Wis
eonsin would be in our possession when the
ballots were counted. Why not Palmer? The
Herald believes he is splendid first choice,
and can see no reason why he should not be, at
least, the second choice Of all good Democrats"
IL has been definitely settled that there will
be no fusion between the Democrats and the
Peoples Party in the Fourth Congressional
District Of Kansas. The Democratic Commit
tee met at Emporia OH Tuesday, Feb. Q, and de-
cided for straight party nominations. Con-
gresham Otis, an Alliance man, represents this
District in the present Congress, and will likely
be defeated for reelection, as the Republicans
have over 1000 majority in three-cornered
fight

Death Of the Lottery.

John A. Morris, principal owner and director
of the Louisiana State Lottery Company, has
withdrawn his proposition for a recharter OF
the company, and declares that it will wind
up its business and retire when its charter
expires in 1894
Mr. Morris says that he is a law abiding citi-
zen and intends to obey the law, and since the
Supreme Court declares that the anti-pOstal
act is constitutional it preeludes him from
carrying on business. This so cripples and
Injuries business that it is impossible to carry
it on and pay the state Of Louisiana a license
of 81, $50 600 q year, as the amendment extend
ing the charter proposes, without actual loss to
the stockholders. He says that, should the
people vote to extend the charter, he viii
refuse TO accept The proposition.
This ends the lottery war that has been
waging in louisiana for two years, and brought
about the split in the Democratic party. How
ever the nt.-lOttory men are still suspicious,
aud it is not yet certain what the effect viii
be, politically, of 1Iorriss action.

VETERANS IN THE CITY,

Ex-Gov j. b. Foraker, Cincinnati o. Gov.
Foraker says his visit to Washington has no
political Significance whatever. as he is here
merely 10 try q case before the United States
Supreme Court, in which he is counsel. But
the wiseaeres thought there must be something
else on the busy Ohioans mind, as Joseph H..
Manley, OF Maine who is Mr.. Blaine's lieu
tenant in politics, happened to be here at the
same tins, and right on the heels Of the letter
Of Mr. Blaine declining the nomination of the
Republican party. But the Governor says this
is merely a coincidence, as he knew nothing of
Mr.. Manley's intention Of visiting Washington
when he came.

Gen. Wheeler, 81 Alabama, who has charge Of
the measure, expressed a willingness TO strike
ont the item appropriating So 008 for inproy-
ing the drainage and modcrnizing tho plumb
ing Of the enlisted mems quarters. This action
on tie part Of Gen. Wheeler was severely cr.i-
cizcd by the Republicans, who said that il the
committee ia charge OF the bill had scrutnizcd
the items closely rs claimed, &c was unfair 10
the common soldiers that their portion Of tie
| appropriation should be given up and those
Tor the cadets and officers quarters allowed to
remain intact. The Democrats undertook, 10
limit debate on The question 20 one minute,
and have tho bin reported to the House from

unanimous consent was refused, parliamentary
