1t was little Grace O'keefe's

day ever to be remembered. Her
home on Lincoln street was the scene
of much merriment for two or three
hours in the afternoon, for thirty
children were there to wish her many
happy returns. On the inside of the
house they reveled in the joys that
candy and fruit and cake and ice
cream bring to the juvenile heart,
and on the outside on the emerald
lawn beneath the sapphire canopy of
heaven, with the sun sparkling like a
crown of glory in honor of the day,
they romped and played until the
evening hours.
Grace is Z years old, and her
friends, young and old, remembered
her, as the following presents will
testify:
Hattie Hill brought her a parlor
set; Nellie and LaFerne Withrow, a
parasol; Francis Hart and Lulu Graaf,
handsome birthday cards; Mamie
Cochran, silver napkin ring; Esther
and Emma Hoffman and Maud Nc
Cutcheon, autograph albums; Mamie
Callahan, handsome japanese cup
and saucer; Lille and Leigh Board

Kline and Charlie Hedgecock, silk
handkerchIefs; Johnnie Mcclure and
Bessie Pearce, silk handkerchiefs;
Woodie Angel and Jessie McSchool-
er, perfumery; Mamie Doyle, ink
stand; frankie Clay, box of dom
inoes; Herbert Clark, a pair of Indian
moccasins; Mrs. Treverton, white
dress and purse; Mrs. Clay, fiat irons;
Mrs. Anderson, of San Marcial, a
silk lined card baket; but these are
not all, by any means, for Lawrence
Clark, Dannie Doyle, Archie Mar
shall, Nellie Murphy, Jennie and
Annie Best, Hattie Hill, May Trai-
ner and Charlie O'Keefe had some

LIKES Las VEGAS.

G. A. Karwiese, an architect, OF
Chicago, who is stopping at the
Plaza hotel, is here with a view to
interesting eastern capitalists in Las
Vegas. Mr.. Karwiese has been here
twice before, years ago, when the
ox-team express was the main trans
portation to the states. He was the
archictect who laid out the improve.
ments at the Hot Springs and is very
much taken with New Mexico,
which has, he says, the best climate
he has yet seen.
Mr.. Karwiese says that with the
natural advantages she has, Las We
gas should be going ahead at a good
fast gait making improvements.
A good hotel in East Las Vegas,
good waterworks and railroad di-
rect to tide water are some of the
improvements necessary, and with
these started, lage city would grow
here almost by magic.
Mr.. Karwiese hopes to be able to
present some statictics as to the re-
sources Of the country to eastern cap
ltalists and interest them in the de-
of Las Vegas and the
country about here.

A Queer ApDointment.

In the course of Mr., Fosters private
practice as an international lawyer he
was entirely free to seek clients and
cases and earn fees. e; in the relation
of client and counsel or otherwise as a
confidential adviser he took ON disabili-
ties for the Office to which he has been,
as it seems to us, rather heedlessly ap-
pointed, that fact was not in any way
discreditable to him. But the presi-
dents ignorance Of his disabilities is in
excusable. One secretary of state has
just "thrown up his job with about as
much form and ceremony as a brick
layer might exhibit in a similar pro-
ceeding. Another secretary of state
succeeds to the portfolio the news of
whose appointment will be received
with a shrug and smile In more than
one foreign office.-New York Times.

why Cleveland Should be Elected.

Every Democrat in the country
should do his utmost to elect Grover
Cleveland this year because
The election of Cleveland means the
restoration of Democratic principles in
national affairs, not for a term but per.
manently.
Because the election of Cleveland
will put an end to Billion-Dolarism
Because his election will bury the
Force bill idea with no hope or chance
Of resurrection.
Because his election will be the first
step towards the breaking down of that
kind of tariff taxation which aims to
enrich the few at the expense of the
many.
Because it will put final end to the
policy of Capitalization in which the
Republics greatest danger lies.
Becauss it will free the country from
the scandal of Raum, Elkins, Woods,
Wanamaker and the rest of the per.
sonal shames that have blotted its fair
name.
Because it will restore the Demo.
cratic idea of government by the peo.
Pile instead of government by favored
class for gain.
Every independent should do all he
can for the election of Grover Cleve-
land. because his election will go fur
ther than anything else could to restore
that purity and honesty of government
which independents seek.
Every workingman should do all he
can for the election of Mr.. Cleveland,
because his election means popular
government, the equality of men and
an end to the false conditions which
make Carnegies possible and permit
Pinkertonism to run riot. 1t means
equal laws for equal men and an end
of favors to the few.-N. Y. World.

A Startling Array.

The proclaimed purpose of the Nc
Kinley tariff is to enable American en-
ployers to pay higher wages to Ameri-
can workingmen. Yet diligent search
and much challenging have failed to
discover single workingman who re-
joices in any such benefit, while Mr..
John De Witt Warner has collected for
the New York Weekly World truly
startling list of cases in which reduc-
tions have been made in the wages Of
men employed in the shops and mines Of
protected capitalists. His list includes
reductions In II iron and steel factories,
l3 in coal companies, 1S in woolen and
worsted mills, 12 in clothing factories,
in cotton mills or groups of cotton
mills, 2 In pottery establishments, Q in
glass works and 80 In miscellaneous in
dustries. The reductions have ranged
from to 30 per cent. and have affected
thousandsof workmenapd their families.

Fosters Appointment a Blunder.

1t is blunder, because it gives two
cabinet offices to Indiana, state which
has already received more than its share
of federal favors. 1t is blunder, be-
cause it throws discredit on the admin
istration and weakens the popular con-
fidence in the presidents judgment of
the fitness of men for the duties of the
Offices under his control. Finally, it is
a blunder because it will cast an air of
truth over the story current a week or
two ago, that Fosters officiousness
caused Blaine to resign, and thus will
be mortal affront to the ex-secretary
and his friends.-St. Louis Globe Demo-
crat (Rep.).

Indeed He Will.

The men and the influences that op-
posed Harrisoh's denomination at Min
neapolis captured the organization of
the new Republican state committee of
New York. This will be very embar-
RAISING to Mr.. Harrison. Mr.. Platt may
have retired from national politics, but
he still has lively interest in state
politics, and he will have something to
say regarding the election of United
States senator in case the Republicans
should control the next legislature

Blaine's Friends Won't Forget 1t,

A remarkable story was recently told
by Mr.. Michael H. de Young, of San
Francisco, 1t represented Mr.. Foster as
having forced the resignation of Mr..
Blaine by insulting him at conference
with the Canadians who were in Wash
ington seeking reciprocity. Mr.. Blaine
expressed certain views concerning the
subject under consideration. "Those
are not the presidents views" remarked
Mr.. Foster curtly, according to Mr.. de
Young.-New York Sun.

Fosters Not in That Rank.

1t has been the custom, which almost
attained the force of unwritten law, to
place in that position man Of the high
est standing in the craftsmanship of the
party. The list Of secretaries of state,
including Blaine, Bayard, Frelinghuy-
sen, Fish, Seward, Buchanan, Clay and
Webster, is sufficient to illustrate this
practice. However respectable and ef-
ficient Mr.. Fosters public services have
been, 1t cannot be claimed for him that
he stands in the rank represented by
these names.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The Force Bill Issue to Stay.

The effort that is being made among
conservative Republicans to eliminate
the force bill issue from the canvass is
not meeting with much encouragement
from President Harrison. His position
on this question is such as to preclude
putting it in the background, and he has
taken the liberty of saying as much.
The force bill issue is in the campaign
to stay.-Boston Herald.

DetachIng Western States.

The Democrats of Kansas, having
adopted as their own the electoral
ticket of the Peoples party, the Sun
flower State may be regarded as prac-
tically eliminated from the Republican
column. 1t is expected that the Demo-
Gratis of Nebraska, Minnesota and per.
haps Iowa will follow the example OF
their brethren in Kansas and indorse the
Peoples party electoral ticket in the
states named. If this expectation is
not disappointed all of these states will
be carried for Weaver and Field, assur.
ing a loss of forty electoral votes to
Harrison and Reid.
Under the arrangement for choosing
Presidential electors in Michigan by
congressional districts, seven, or one,
half of the electoral votes of that state
are certain to be Democratic. The
three doubtful states which will con
stitute the political battle-ground in the
Northwest are, therefore, Indiana, Hi
nois and Wisconsin. The conditions
in each Of these are such as to en-
courage the hope that all of them may
be carried for Cleveland and Stevenson

IT must have been very funny sight
to see Matt Quay, man who has more
crimes to his credit than many a jail
bird, rise up in his seat in the United
States senate and speak against having
tho worlds fair open on Sundays. Matt
has very sanctimonious appearance
when he uses his Sunday face, but the
grin Of the hypocrite is as plainly mark
ed on his features as the brand of Cain.
No doubt the king of embezzlers had
quiet laugh to himself when he con-
cluded his speech against desecrating
the Sabbath by allowing the laboring
classes of Chicago and Illinois to view
the grand exhibition on the only day
they may have an opportunity.

DIED FROM EXPOSURE.
THE SAD END OF JOHN MANLEY, OF
BELLAlRE,
Found Unconscious Near The Edge Of The River,
and Diss in q Short hns-Ths Tragic
Record Of the Unfort1nats Family.
The following telegram came over
the wires from Pittsburg, last night:

The following telegram came over
the wires from Pittsburg, last night:
PIrTsBURe, PA, January 16.-A
special dispatch TO the Chroniclc-Tele-
graph from Bellaire, Ohio, says John
Marley, aged 80 years, proprietor OF
the BelIaire Wharfboat, and his son,
Peter ManleY, were found frozen to
death at 10 o'clock to-day, under the
Ohio Valley railroad trestle works.
The supposition is that they fell from
the trestle while enroute home,
The facts are as follows:
John Manley, frozen nearly to death,
was found lying by side Of the road
leading to the lower wharf at Bellsire,
about eight o'clock yesterday morning.
Albert King saw him lying by the road
side, and going to him found him cold
and thought he was dead. He was car
rled into the Office at Freezes livery
stable nearby, a physician was called
and an effort was made TO revive him,
but be died about an hour later. The
particulars Of the sad affair, so far as
can be learned, are as follows; Manley
had been drinking during the evening,
and was last seen on the street at
about eleven o'clock. 1t is supposed
that about this time he started TO
90 to the wharfboat, where he stays
most OF the time. he had evidently
gotten into a johnboat to reach the
wharfboat, as his hat and coat were in
the johnboat. When the body was found
his clothes were frozen stiff, which
leads to the belief that he had fallen in
to the river, and after getting out OF
the water became so quickly chilled
that he fell and could not rise again.
There was nothing to show that he had
struggled at the place where found.
The unfortunate young man was son
of Peter Manley, and was 2S years OF
age. The funeral will take place from
st. Johns Catholic Church, Bellaire,
this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.
The tragic death Of members OF this
family is somewhat remarkable. Short
" before the family moved to Bellaire
their residence was destroyed by fire
and daughter was burned to death.
Several years later a son was crushed to
death by the cars in the B. q 0. yards
in the same city, Soon after another
another son received injuries by the
cars, which proved fatal. The third son
was drowned in the Ohio river. Thus
the death of John makes five members
OF the family who have met unnatural
deaths.
