GAIL HAMILTON.
We can tell our Republican readers a secret
and our Democratic friends piece OF good
news:
The World intends to and will elect another
Democratic president this year, as 1t elected
Grover Cleveland in 1884.
Grover Cleveland, representing the cause of
tariff reform, or any one OF q number OF other
Democratic leaders who can be elected, repre-
sent1ng all the elements OF 0ppos1tlon to Re-
publicanism, The World will be foremost in
his support. The neat president must be a Demo
crdt.
But while doing this The World will give to
its Republican readers, as it did in the recent
campaign, a fuller and better report of Repub-
lcan meetings and speeches In the presiden-
tlal canvass than the organs OF their own party
print. The World never colors its nelcs; ii pho
t0Qrdphs eUents.
The World is now printing, an average of
average gain of $4,000 day during the past
year: 1t will circulate next year, on the basis
of this increase only. at least l2O 100000
copies OF the ablest, strongest and best Demo-
cratic newspaper ever printed.
The World is recognized as distinctively the
newspaper OF the people. 1t believes that TO
be the highest journalism which is dedicated
to the public vice.
The World puts heart and conscience into
Its work as well as brains. 1t is the handmaid
OF Justice, the unraveller OF mysteries. the de-
tector and the terror of crime, the friend of the
friendless, the help of the poor, the strength of
the weak. Realizing that its power comes
from the people, it gives back to them freely
whatever service its influence and resources
enable it TO render.
With perfect equipment, thorough organ
ization, capable direction and deep deter
mination to move on and up to higher ideals
and greater achievements, The World wishes
its multitude of readers Happy New Year,
and confidently bids them to expect from it
during 1892 even more wonderful things than
1t has already accomplished,

Interesting Mrs. Hope Dead.


Mrs. Hope, of Luffness, who died re-
Gently in her eighty-first year, was a
link with the long distant past, for she
was granddaughter of the Lord Doug
las who obtained world wide fame as
the winner of the Douglas case, which
was perhaps the most extraordinary and
romantic litigation on record. Lord
Douglas, the successful claimant, had
one daughter, who was the heiress of his
vast possessions, and she married the
younger brother of the fourth Duke of
Buccleuch, who was created Lord Mon
tagu of Boughton, and who is now only
remembered through his friendship with
Sir Walter Scott. Lord and Lady Mon
tagu had three daughters, of whom the
eldest married the late Lord Home, and
she inherited the Douglas estates.
Mrs. Hope, who was the youngest
daughter, married Mr.. George Hope, of
Luffness, some time Tory member for
Windsor, and brother of the famous
James Hope Scott. Mrs. Hope died at
Boutwell, Castle, Lanarkshire, which had
been her principal residence for many
years past, and she was buried in the Luff-
ness vault at Aberlady, East Lothian, the
funeral being attended by the Duke Of
Buccleuch and Lord Home and by nu-
merous members of their respective fam
ilies.-London Truth.

Gal1antly Rescued.

Five days ago pretty Kittie M. Hall,
OF Mayhews, aged eighteen, came to
Sacramento. At social party she met
Edward ]. Farmer, a prepossessing
young man of twenty-one. The liking
was mutual. Miss Hall said she had
left home temporarily to avoid the i'm
portunities of an aged lover, who was
distasteful to her, though favored by
her parents because of his financial
ability.
''Ill help you out of your difficulty, y
said the gallant young man.
"How?" she asked.
"I'1 marry you myself, if you say the
word"
She flushed shyly, asked for minute

The ancient suitor arrived soon after
the ceremony was performed. He went
straight to the county clerks office, and
when informed of what had happened

settles it," and walked out.

BurgIarized on His wedding Night.

BurgIarized on His Wedding Night.
Charles Rohan was graduate of
Oberlin college. He went to New York,
where he wooed and won prominent
young lady. On the night following his
wedding his wife was awakened by pis-
tol shots, and soon saw her husband
rush into the room. He had burglarized
the next door residence, and, being dis
covered at his nefarious work, was pur-
sued and shot at. He fought his way
through a crowd of policemen, who
were attracted by the pistol shots, and
made good his escape. He was soon
afterward captured for another job and
sent to the Ohio penitentiary from Cuya-
hoga county. In the meantime it de-
veloped that the wedding in New York
was a mock affair, and his supposed
wife has since married wealthy mer-
chant.
A few days ago Rohan was tried for
the New York crime, and his defense
was based on the affidavit of J. G.. Shaw,
his pal, to the effect that the latter was
the man who deceived the young lady
and robbed the house of her next door
neighbor. The young woman, deeply
yelled to conceal her identity, came into
court and identified Rohan as the man,
Notwithstanding Shaw's affidavit. Her
name was kept secret in the court

Abandoned Farms in Massachusetts.

Within the borders of the old Bay
State are more than 900 abandoned
farms. A list of many of these for
saken homesteads is accessible at the
headquarters of the state board of agri-
culture, and any one who wishes a
country life and country air can have
his longing gratified for a very small
outlay in cash.
Most of these abandoned farms are
found in the hill towns of the western
counties, ideally beautiful for situa-
ton, many of them, and lacking only
the touch of the wand wealth to be-
come magnificent manors Essex has
less than any other county, except Suf-
folk, where farms of any kind are rare,
if not precisely few and far between.
There seems to be no good reason why
such places should go to rack and
ruin, when hundreds of city folks are
longing for summer home at modest
price. Boston Globe.

The Spread of influenza.

The outbreak of influenza is spreading
fast, with its customary concomitant of
a highly increased mortality from res
piratory affections. In the metropolis.
for one week, thirteen deaths were at
tributed primarily to influenza, the total
death rate being 1919 per 1000, or slight
ly less than the preceding week. 1t NAV
be noted that the death rate at Plymouth
for the week ending Nov. 28 was 1873.
or precisely double what it was three
weeks previously. There has also been
q rise in the death rates of Newcastle
on-Tyne and Sunderland. Influenza con-
tinues to be very prevalent in Scotland;
it has appeared in severe form at
Sandy, one of the isles of Orkney. In
Glasgow it is said that it has never been
30 widespread and severe as at the pres
ent time, and almost the same is true of
Edinburgh. In both places the resources
of the profession have been severely
taxed
Abroad the accounts are of like i'm
port. At Berlin it has been prevailing
during the past month. It has been
very severe at Hamburg and Dusseldorf.
and is also spreading rapidly in the Sile-
sian provinces and Schleswig- -Holstein.
1t has appeared again in Paris, where
Professor Brouardel has stated that it
was responsible for 100 deaths during
one week. The Australian mails bring
accounts of the deaths of several promi-
nent Melbourne citizens from influenza,
and our New Zealand correspondent
also speaks of its prevalence.-London
