The Report in Regard to Senator Hill Re-
ceiyed prom Michigan.
DETROIT, Mich, March 25-The
Tribune, republican. yesterday de-
clared that David Bennett Hill has sent
word secretly to his Michigan friends
that he is not a candidate for the
the democratic state convention to be
held at Muskegon, Nav 4 will send to
Chicago al uninstructed delegation
with secret direction to follow the vote
of New York, assurance being given
that Hill is not 4 candidate.
The information printed in the Tri-
bune this morning in regard to an al
legged statement made to certain Michi-
gan democrats by David b. Hill. that
ne does not aspire TO the presidency,
was furnished by Chairman Grogan, of
the democratic county central commit
tee.
Chairman Grogan says that he called
on Mr.. Hill about the same time that n
committee of two democrats from n
certain faction of that party in this
state conferred with the senator. Their
conference was for the purpose of ascer-
tanning whether Hill would allow an
aggressive campaign to be entered into
in this state in his behalf for the presi-
dency as against Cleveland
Mr.. Grogan refuses to divulge the
names of the two prominent democrats
and declares, so the Tribune says, hat
the information given out vas similar
to what Hill told the committee.
Whether or not Hill made the asser-
lion in good faith is not known.

is unusually large this season
as we found so much in market

A picked nine will probably play the High

the school team will play the Vermont Academy
nine at Saxtons River.
The following is from the Northampton cor
respondence in the Springfield Republican Of this
morning: THE local base ball managers have been
considering more than so applications from
players who would like to go on the team and
out of the list have selected these men, who will
be asked to play: Slater, ID: Moore, 2b Farrell,
3b; Poole, IS; Stafford, p; Leahy, C; Flack, CT;
Carr, If: and Wall, RI. Slater Farrell and Carr
played in the team last year Stafford pitched for
the Holy Cross college team last year, and Leahy
caught for the Brattleboros. This would make
a strong battery, and the team would BE- a good
| one at every point" Whether this item is cor.
rect remains to be seen.

More Stories.

An ably conducted newspaper some time since sent out circulars to its sub scribers asking them to make sugges- tions which, in their judgment, would enable the editors to make the paper more useful and interesting. It is men, tioned rather as a reproach to these ex- cellent subscribers that three-fourths of them wanted more stories.
 But is it reproachi Not so. The fact is the race has been preached at from all points of approach tillit is mor- tally tired of it. We do want more stories of the best sort; those which will appeal to the imagination and the finer sympathies and wake us up and give us thrills" all over. We do want "thrills:" that is what wo want, for we are Jagged and life seems a wooden, leaden stretch of up hill. Tho ancients used to incite warriors to desperate deeds in battle by recounting the marvellous feats of their heroes and ancestors. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" perhaps did more than anything else to break tho chains of the dave, and the novels of Charles Reade knd Dfckens aroused public sentiment

The Carbuncla Ring.

The carbuncle ring is now quite ire quently seen on the hands of the fash ionable gentleman. One of the rarest and most precious stones is the carbun- cle, which is sometimes confounded with the ruby, from which it differs by the intensity of its fires, produced by an internal luster of gold, while under tue purple of the ruby there only appear dottings of azure or lacquer. Ethiopia produced the most precious ancient car buncles. The Chaldeans regarded this stone as powerful talisman. The vir- tues of the carbuncle are resistance to fire, preservation of the eyes, promotion of pleasant dreams, creation Of bapr, illusions and an antidote against ilupur air.-Bangor Commercial.
 root Notes.
 Never wear nice pair of shoes when you must needs wear rubbers. It spoils them more quickly than anything else. Have an old pair to wear under rubbers, and thus save your good shoes and enjoy the comfort the older ones give. When soles are worn thin use insoles--they will save both shoes and stockings. These are cut from sole leather. When suffering from corns cut out the place over them from an old shoe and cover with neat patch. It is a sure cure.- Detroit Free Press.

ONE THEORY OF INCORPORATES.

There is nothing else upon which the Peoples party lays SO much emphasis as mortgage. In estimating the pros perity of community the editors and orators of that party treat the mort gage as the most significant and conclu- sivs fact to be considered. And they see in mortgage sign of one thing only, distress. Their papers and speeches are full of this idea, that a mortgage is a horrible instrument of oppression, and complete evidence that the maker is falling behind financially. Accordingly, an increase of mortgages in rapidly developing western states, such as Kansas and Nebraska, is con- strued bp them to prove beyond con- troversy that the owners of land in those states are not holding their own, but losing money.
 Every practical man familiar with growing cities and new country knows that mortgage does not neces- sarily mean that the maker is becoming poorer. Almost all of the farms of the western states are owned by men who began upon them with small means. They obtained possession by small cas h payments, giving mortgage for the balance. Even in the olIer states the transfer of property from the elderly and well-to-do to the young and ambi- tious gives continual occasion for the same class O! mortgages. They prove nothing at all that the Peoples party uses mortgages to prove.
 Wherever values are increasing it is the common practice of investors not to avoid mortgages. but to make the mortgages as large as possible and spread their ready money over as much land as possible. thereby securing more of what Henry George has called the ''unearnsd increment" The man who has ready nJnsy to buy eighty acres and be frvs of deb. in Mime Of pros
