Prel,istoric Relics.

Messrs. Moorehead and Cresson, in
charge of the Worlds Columbian expo
sition survey, engaged in investigating
the mounds at Chillicothe, O., have
come upon one of the most notable
finds in the history of such discoveries.
Recently a skeleton was found, with
such signs Of rank in the way of orna-
ments and instruments, as to lead to
the conclusion that it was a king whose
remains were discovered. On one day
one hundred and twenty copper objects
were found, consisting of fish, crosses
Of various shapes, combs, crescents,
anklets, earrings, bracelets, etc. Such
a collection, for variety and finish, was
never found before. Such a resem-
blance to the work found in Mexico was
noted that it may be that primeval
man in Ohio and Mexico had close re-
lationship.

Whales in the Antarctic Ocean.

It looks as if whaling in the Arctic sea,
which has long been an occupation for
hardy seamen of the north, will soon
be thing Of the past. The industry
has been on the decline for some time,
and this year it has been complete
failure. But whales, it is said, are still
plentiful in Antarctic seas, and that
chief of fishermen. Capt David Gray, Of
Peterhead, is preparing to go there IN
search of them. He will sail direct
from Scotland, starting in August and
reaching the whaling grounds in octo-
Der. -Four months will be spent in COM
pleting the cargoes, and home will be
reached again in the following May.

with interest, and II pluck and enter

AN UNLUCKY SEAT.
The Eventful History of the Senatorial
Position Held by Plumb.

The Eventful History of the Senatorial
Position Held by Plumb.
The seat or senatorsbip held by
Plumb, says the Troy (K>ap,} Chief,
was the one originally held by Gen.
Lane. The other senatorship has had
but three incumbents in thirty years
Pomeroy, Ingalls, and PETER. There
seems to have been a fate attached to
the place now vacant. Gen. Lane was
one OF the first two senators-elect in
Kansas. In the drawing he drew the
short term. Before the expiration of
his term Gov. Carney was elected to the
place; but it caused such p row that
Carney was compelled to renouDce the
position, and it killed him politically.
Lane was reelected, but committed sui
eide little more than a year after en-
tering upon'his second term in order to
avoid exposure Of dishonest practices
as all officer Of the government.
e. G. Ross was appointed to ill the
vacancy and was elected by the en-
suing Legislature. He betrayed his con-
stituents in the Johnson Impeachment
case, and for more than twenty years,
although still living, he has been deader
than Plumb will be twenty years from
now Alexander Caldwell was elected
to succeed him, but through the in
strurnentality Of defeated candidates an
Investigation was gotten UP over al
legged corruption in the election and
Caldwell closed the matter by resign
ing. Robert Crozier, Of Leavenworth,
was appointed to the vacancy, but held
the place only until the meeting of the
next Legislature. Then Gov. Harvey
was elected for the remainder of the
term, but proved complete failure
and cut no figure in the next election.
Plumb was chosen to succeed him, and
was in his third term when he was
suddenly stricken down, leaving the
place vacant, to be filled by appoint
ment for the third time. Thus that
seat has been vacated twice by sudden
or violent deaths, has had two flashes
in the pan, one disgrace and one nom
entity.

WASHINGTON, October 1.-THE general
condition Of Mrs. Harrison to-day was
more gratifying to the Presidential house
hold tnan it has been for several days past
and the day closed without any incident 10
increase the sad feelings of the family
circle.
The invalid experienced a partial reac-
tion from the depressed and enervating
condition Of the past week and was trihe
stronger Just why this was the case it is
impossible to explain, except that such
changes are common 10 persons afflicted
with tuberculosis and periods of weakness
and exhaustion are followed oy hours and
frequently days Of partially renewed vital
ity and viGor
When DR.. Gardner left Mrs. Harrison
last night she was sleeping quietly and he
was pleased 10 find on his arrival at the
White House this morning that she had a
good nights rest. His report tonight,
after making the last call for the day, was
that she had been more comfortable by
comparison than for several days past.
Ever since her case has become so pre-
carious, Mrs. Harrison has slept much of
the time and wakened for few minutes
only when her nourishment was administ-
cred to her. This 6rowsy condition always
followed by increased exhaustion has not
been so apparent and persistent the past
day or two. Tonight Dr. Gardner says
Mrs. Harrison slept more naturally to-day
and that her rest was not so exharsting in
its effects as formerly.
AS to nourishment the patient takes
about the same amount she has been in the
habit Of taking Of late, and although the
quantity is small it is equal to the amounts
generally taken by persons in her condi-
tion. There seems to be at present no in
dlcation of return of fluid in the chest
cavity, a complication whichis to be dread
ed more than any other as it would necessi-
tate another operation, which, owing to the
weakened state Of the patient, would prob
ably prove fatal.
Possibly the best evidence Of the more
cheerful tone which pervades the White
House to-day was the fact that the Presi-
dent consented to absent himself from the
mansion for time. He is rather averse
to doing this, prefering to remain always
near his wife To-day, however, in COM
pany with Mrs. DimmicK, he went out for
a drive il the country and was absent
about an hour and half and returned feel
ing much refreshed.

"MY DEAR SIR:-My response to your

this interesting occasion, and thus show my
appreciation of its Importance, If 1 could

81 am sure, however, that this is impos-
sible; and 1 am unwilling to undertake the
trip, which, from beginning TO end, despite
all efforts on my part, would be regarded
as political tour made by candidate for
the presidency.
"My general aversion to such trip is
overwhelmingly increased in this particu-

pensation which detains at the bedside of
his sick wife another candidate for the
presidency.

constrain me to forego the satisfaction

otherwise afford me. hope in the light of
conssderate and sympathetic sentiment,
which ought to be felt by all our people,
that these considerations will be deemed
abundant justification of my action.

particulars pointed out, and in respect OF
which Congress possesses the power TO

tent, but that the act is not for that reason
void and may stand as so modified.
ave also hold with that court that in
view Of the language Of the second clause
of the nrst section of article Of the con-
stitution and the contemporaneous and
subsequent construction of that Language in
practice, this act cannot now be held invalid
for want Of power in the State Legislature

CLEVELAND, O., October l7.-Six thous-
and enthusiastic lovers Of base ball llhustled
out TO the League Park to-day 10 see the
opening game OF the closing champion
ship series between Boston and Cleveland.
The day was perfect one for the play
ers, though north wind made IL somewhat
chilly for the spectators. The game began
at O'Clock and ended at . o'clock, whenit
become too dark 10 see.
Eleven innings had been played and
twenty-five big round goose eggs had been
painted with whitewash on the score board
al the end Of the field.
IL was a pitchers battle throughout.
Young for the home team was In splendid
form, and six little singles was all he gave
the visitors, while Stivetts was less liberal
in that respect and more generous with
bases on balls.
Only fourteen men reached first base in
the eleven innings, and only two OF the
Bostons got as far as third base Cleve-
land did little better,
BURKETT NEARLY REACHING
the plate in the ninth inning. While the
pitchers did splendid work, their support
was almost perfect, the only error OF the
game being a wild throw by thinner 10
catch runner at second, but IL amounted
10 nothing.
For Jne nome team MCAleeT ulu uno
work in the field and Davis playing at
third was OF the gilt-edge order. Tucker
did excellent work at first. The game was
the most brilliant exhibition Of scientific
ball playing seen on the home grounds this
season, and the crowd howled Itself hoarse
as one fine play followed another in quick
succession.
Cleveland was considered a most sure
winner with Stivetts In the box for Bos-
ton, and there is much disappointment to-
night at the result. Clarkson and Staley
will be the pitchers in to-morrow's game,
and there is apprehension that Boston will
score victory, because his old associates
have been able on several occasions 70
solve Clarkson's curves, while Staley bas

OF to-day's game follows:
