Attorneys Bsyless and Bristow brought
Judge a. Z. Paige. of Frankfort. to this

Judge Paige was accordingly taken back
TO Frankfort and Will be returned to the
sanatarium this week, after the proper
formalities have been conformed with.
The Judges insanity is thought to be the

since. Judge Paige is an attorney of prom
inence at the Clinton county bar. and vas
a candidate for Judge of the Appellate
Court on the Democratic ticket.

was brought here today from Arlington,

charged with attempting to kill his wife
and 3 Mrs. Brighten, with whom she
boarded. The wife had left him several
months ago because of cruel treatment and
she secured divorce yesterday.
He went to the house and endeavored TO
induce her to return to him. Meeting
with refusal he drew a butcherknife and
struck her ia the abdomen inf1icting serious
wounds. He then turned on Mrs. Brighten
and cutlher so severely that her intestines
protru1ed. He then attempted to take his
own life, but was overpowered. He now
says the deed was committed while under
the influence Of opium taken with suicidal
inJent.

GENERAL DUDLEY WILL REMAIN A PASSIVE
SPECTATOR.
He has been living for the past ten years
at Washington. but he still claims Indiana
as his home. 1t is possible that he may go
out in Indiana and cast his vote for the
occupant OF the White House; but doubt
it. He would be hardly human If he could
of him.
1t is possible that the men whom the
President mas selected to manage mis- cam
paign may prove themselves to be as clever
tacticians as the trinity of politicians
have just mentioned We will know more
about that in November next. l know,
however. that the men who have the best
interests of the Republican party at heart
regret extremely that Quay, Plat and
Dudley are not in command this year as
they were four years ago. They feel that
the canvass, even in the hands Of such vet
eran campaigpers, woulo be attended with
many uncertainties, but in the hands of
raw and untried lieutenants
THERE is LITTLE TO HOPE FOR.
The third party will do the Republicans
this year incalculable mischief. 1t is &C
cepted as a foregone conclusion here that
the Third party with the aid Of the Demo
Gratis will carry Kansas, Iowa and South
Dakota. twill be impossible for the Re-
publicans to win without these states, un-
less they Offset the loss by capturing few
of the states in the south. But they will
lose more than this. There is every proba-
biiity that the Democrats viii wrest Wis
consin from them, and there is an absolute
certainty that they will get six if not eight
of MichiEan's electoral votes. The Repub-
lican hope OF carrying any of the southern
states is practically barren one. Their
party has been foolish enough to make
the force bill one of the dominant issues Of
the campaign. And the party which hopes
TO carry southern state, either of its own
strength or by running fusion ticket with
the Farmers Alliance, on an issue so alb
horrent to the southern people as the
force bill, has certainly lost the good sense
that has characterised its efforts in the
past.

dent Of the United States, if he livesl
