An influential Republican Deserts His
Party.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. i.-EX-Attorney
General Wayne Macveagh has written a
letter to John w. Carter, secretary of the
Massachusetts reform club in which he
announces he will vote for Grover
Cleveland. The letter says in part:
"As both parties have presented unex-
ceptionable candidates there is no reason
why the differences which exist upon
questions of public policy should be dis
cussed otherwise than in good humor
and with entire respect for each others
opinions. In the present compaign
what may be called the false alarms of
the canvass will prove of little value be
cause of the general confidence in the
safe and conservative character of both
candidates.
The writer finds himself in full accord
with the democratic party and finds II
more easy to act with them because the
republican party securing its return tC
power four years ago by promising tC
preserve matters as they were, at once
embarked upon what he regards as a
reckless and revolutionary policy. even
overturning all safeguards of legislation
in the house of representatives in theil
haste to pass the force bill and the Nc.
Kinley bill, both to his mind unnecessar!
and unwise measures. He then argues
on tariff and elections.

son in milk
The child died and while the funeral

reports that all was not right and sus-
pended the service. That evening Mrs.
Kester took her only other child, two
year-oId boy, and placed him in bar
rel of water with the purpose of drown
ing him, but the little ones screams
caused her to fear detection. She took
the child III her arms and carried it a
mile and half to the farm of Joseph
Richards There she tossed her sleeping
bov down a seyenty-foot we'll, where he
was drowned. She returned to the vii
laee and told Druggist Cook what she
had done. and started for Lake Madison,
SIX miles away, with the intention of
throwing herself into lake.
Her father, Eric Wirshing. and other
members of the family, however watched
her so closely that she was unable to car
ry out this plan.

/ Herman @ N Harms. who has slept almost
constantly for the past seventeen years
has once more Wakened from his sleep.
His case is a most phenomenal one, and
tits attracting more and more attention
from DAY to Gay Within the past year
he has been visited BY several prominent
physicians who have investigated ] his
case from a medical standpoint.
It is now about one year since he last
awoke at which time he remained awake
for q period of two weeks alsing the
usual amount Of sleep. Mr.. Harms is now
living on the Buznlan farm, one mile
and half east. Of Quincy He moved
here from near Utica, this state.
Some seventeen years since, when
q arms was living in Illinois, he was att
tackled By a severe fever and he had IN
tarse pain il his head. After the febrile
symptom had passed away this sleepi-
ness came npon him. His physicians
advised him to try a colder climate
Whereupon he moved to Minnesota. This
was IN 1878. During his stay in Illinois
he did not sleep all the time, but since
coming to this state lie has slept incess-
antly with the exception Of eighteen
months beginning with 1881 two months
a.x * -
of $50 and two weeks Of last July.
While he is sleeping he can only be
awakened by his wife touching him light
" on the head. Calling or shaking will
not rouse him in the least In this par
ticular alone his is a strikingly strange
case.
He takes no nourishment at all to
speak of but when he does eat it Is al
ways II the night. After eating he inn
mediately falls asleep He has become
terribly cmaciated of late and has aged
greatly in the past year. Mr.. Harms was
born in Germany in 1888. In 1863 he
was married to Miss Lydia Buzmann.
Five children have been born to them
the last one in 1891 All the children
appear to be as bright as the average
child. The eldest boy, Willie, was a
victim of melancholia and in 1882, at
the. age of only twelve years, committed
suicide By hanging himself to the plow
handles while in the field blowing. tits
generally thought that the boy inherited
this morbidness.

During the week reports have been

are not true. Saturday afternoon Judge.
Gresham made the statement to repor-
ter that he would deliver no speeches
during this campaign. He was questioned
concerning the statement given the press

Peoples party at ST. Louis to the effect
that he has concluded to take the stump
in the interests of the third party and
would make an opening speech at Tndi-
Ianapolissthe latter part of this month,
Taubereek claiming to have received
this information from George G. StoH
chairman of the state central committee
OF Indiana to whom it was alleged Judge
Gresham had written. The Judge said
the statement was made without auth
ority;; that he should make no political
speeches during the campaign. The
judge was asked to give his views ON
the political situation, but answered that
he did not wish to discuss the subject.
When asked concerning the truth of the
/ Indianapolis special to a Boston paper
III which Chairman StoH declared that
the judge would take tie stump, Judge
/ Gresham said that he had not known
Mr.. Stoll and had had noeommunieation
with him, and that his first answer COW
