Death Of Mrs. Harrison.

The people of the whole country will
mourn with President Harrison who deeply
mourns the death of his beloved wife,
which occurred at the White House at /. 40
O'Clock Tuesday morning. Mrs. Harrison
was most estimable lady and during the
four years she has been the mistress of the
White House, she has endeared herself to
the people of the entire nation. Great was
her suffering which she bore with christian
resignation and in spite of pain and dis
tress which were constantly with her as
her life ebbed slowly away, she was cheer
full to the last During this long illness
the President with untiring assiduity,
maintained his ceaseless vigils at her bed
side, anticipating her every wish and do
ngs. The only wonder is that he did not
break down weeks ago. His grief will,
for time, make all parties kim
AT the recent State Sunday School con-
vention at Bath one Of the brethren offered
q resolution inviting in the Universalists
as spectators but not as participants in the
convention. One of the members remarked
this was like inviting man to your house
to dinner party and giving him the party
but not the dinner. One good woman who
had been Hospitality entertained by Uni
yersalist family, was so deeply impressed
with this view of the case, that she sent
back her regrets to the Universalist enter
tainer and went home. The critics of the
resolution thought that as between an in
vitation to come and stay in the front hall
and no invitation at all. there might be
more sweetness and light in the latter. But
the incident is an entertaining one as show
ing movement in UNCONVENTIONAL amity
begun but probably not done. The world
moves, and midnight blackpess is
changing into gray"

this year is by Pres. B. L. Whitman Of

was received with cheers. After his noble
address, Mr.. White called forth prompt

s'BLUE JEANS,

The play of "Blue Jeans" the best and
funniest now on the boards, is located in
the Blue Jeans district of Indiana and this
reminds us of the fact that it was ''Blue
Jeans" Williams who defeated President
Harrison for governor of Indiana. This
was in 1876. The republicans of Indiana
had nominated for governor the late God
love S. Orth. Mr.. Orth accepted and be-
gan his campaign. Charges involving him
in doubtful connection with what were
known as the Venezuela claims" we're
made against him, and several leading re-
publican newspapers refused to support
hlm 1t was not year in which the re-
publicans Of Indiana could afford to split,
II there ever was such year. The state
committee became alarmed, and as all ef-
forts to induce the papers in question to
torego their opposition failed, it was deter
mined to remove Mr. Orth from the ticket
as the only way to unite the party. This
was done, and Benjamin Harrison was
substituted. This was in the midst of the
campaign, and the result fully bore out
Lincoln's idea of the unwisdom of swap
ping horses While crossing a stream. 1t is
but just to Mr.. Harrison to say that he
neither sought nor desired the nomination,
and doubted the policy of taking Orth off
the ticket; but as a loyal partisan he
yielded to the command Of his party
Williams was called "BIue Jeans'' because
he invariably wore blue homespun gar
ments. The democrats called the republi-
can candidate "Kid Glove" Harrison, and
the democrats, in the language of a we'll
known Indianian, Ed. w. Brady, had the
best of it because 'there were more people
in Indiana that wore blue jeans than wore
kid gloves" As Williams was a poor
talker, Dan Voorhees, accompanied him on
the stump. Dan was dubbed the "bear
leader" and as Williams was not on inti-
mate terms with Lindley Murray, he would
get up, say few words, and then yield to
VOORHEES,. with the remark: 'My friends,
l will now give way to a more abler man. {"
"Blue Jeans" who is now dead, was
elected. He was an illiterate man and
made poor governor. Indiana atoned
for its mistake afterward by giving a good
majority for Harrison for president.

ONE of the reasons why Ireland has been
almost ground to powder by England is
the fact that the clergy of that unhappy
country always counsel 'peace on earth
and good will toward man." Colonel Eliot
F. Shepherd, of the New York Mail and
Express, said to a Chicago reporter: 81
have it from Roman Catholic bishop and
from Episcopal bishop that
these high-handed outrages in the South
against the negro, their disfranchisement
and worse things, are actually countenanced
by the church. These bishops say it is
done to avoid bloodshed."

ALABAMA democrats are rent in twain.
Two tickets are in the field. A large party
bolted from the state nominating conven-
ton at Montgomery, and Mr.. Kolb the
leader Of the alliance organization. is about
to take the field as an independent candi-
date for the governorship, with full ticket
and an enthusiastic following behind him.
The republicans could easily carry the
state if the U. S. election laws were en-
forced, but they are not. AS it is, it shows
that the people of the South are getting
tired of Bourbon rule.
