The Democratic House.

WASHINGTON, August 24.-That the
present large Democratic majority in the
House of Representatives will be reduced
in the next Congress has long been the
cry of the Republicans. The basis Of
this declaration Is the fact that in ninety
Congressional districts which have usu-
ally been carried by Republicans the
Democratic majority in 1890 ranged from
10 to 300 votes. The Republican mana
gers have claimed that it would be i'm
possible for the Democrats to retain
many Of these in Presidential year.
Now that the campaign has warmed up
to q considerable extent, the probability
Of reduction of the Democratic majority
in Congress seems to lessen. Some ad-
vantages will accrue to the Republicans
by reason Of the gerrymander in Ohio.
The present Congressional delegation
Republicans. The last General Assem-
bly Of Ohio so redistricted the State that
the Republicans believed that they would
be able to carry sixteen out Of the twenty.
one districts. A day or two ago, on his
return from Ohio, Secretary Charles
Foster predicted that only fifteen districts
would Sc carried, which would indicate
that the gerrymander Is not quite so
effective as it " as intended to be-.
The district represented by Michael D.
Harter was changed with the idea OF
making his return impossible, but the
advices coming from that district at this
time are to the effect that he will carry it.
The ninety districts which were carried
two years ago by the Democrats in the
face of so-called Republican majorities
were generally carried on the square
issue OF tariff reform. The records of the
Democratic Congressional campaign COM
mittee In this city show that very large
percentage Of these new members are
being renominated, and that the demand
for tariff reform literature from these
sections is increasing. The denomination
of Mr.. Cleveland has given the issue of
tariff reform greater strength than it had
two years ago in those districts. While
the Republicans may gain few seats by
reason of the Ohio gerry mander and the
fact that the representation in Pennsyl-
vania and few other States had been
increased, the committee believes that in
the West and Northwest some half dozen
districts will be captured which have
heretofore been uniformly Republican,

a few days ago Senators German and
Ransom asked the Editor of the New
York Sun to prepare an article on the
force bill, to form part Of the Democrat
ic campaign book, giving the "origin,
history and character of that awful meas
ure.n The editor of the Sun sssid that his
duties were 80 onerous that he had not
time to comply with the request He
suggested that Senator Hill be asked to
write the article. He said he knew OF no
one who could do the subject better JUS
tice.. It is probable that the suggestion
will be acted upon.

4 The question whether man can steal
from his wife was argued at length before
q Chicago judge few days ago in the ha-
beas corpus proceedings brought by a
man confined in the County Jail on q
charge Of larceny preferred by his wife.
She claims that he stole two thousand two
hundred dollars from under her pillow
and left for Little Rock, Ark. He was
brought back and held to the Criminal
Court. The mans attorney made the
claim that even if his client did take the
money he did not commit crime, as q
man cannot steal from his wife. The
court took the case under advisement.

The Iowa Democrats have put their
party in excellent condition to retain
power in that State. The State ticket is q
popular one and the platform is soundly
Democratic. It indorses Cleveland and
Stevenson, favors tariff reform and de-
nounces the fanatical policy of the Repub-
licans upon State issues.

The Editor of the Advocate is more or
less of an "artful dodger." In the last
issue of that paper q long affidavit is
published from w. i. snipes. which does
not touch the point in question. We
quote from that affidavit; "In reference
to the affidavit made by w. G. Cobb, p.
d. Wade and J. E. Adger, Jr., I say that
I never told them that 7 did not sign the
affidavit read by Gov. Tillman at Ander-

Snipes may have o- may have not "told"
some one, but is this: Did Snipes sign
the affidavit read by Gov. Tillman. or

There was disastrous fire in Augusta
on Saturday last. Seven prominent bus
iness concerns were burned out. The,
losses amount to about 100000, with in
suranoe falling considerably under that
amount. The Chronicle was one OF the
unfortunates. Its workmen stood to their
posts until nearly blistered by the heat,
and they succeeded in striking off the
whole Of the emorning issue of their paper.
Augusta enterprise will hastily rebuild
the burnt district. The Chronicle has not
missed an issue, and will continue to ap-
pear as if the flames had never touched.

A Gypsy Baron.

Among the odd figures that draw at
tention in the metropolis nowadays is
Thomas Stanley. gypsy baron, who
comes here to make preparations to ex-
hibit himself and his people in Chicago
during the Columbian exposition There
is little in ais appearance to denote that
he is of Roman blood, and of one of the
finest strains at that. His skin is not
swarthy, and his eyes and hair are
brown instead Of black, as is common
with most gypsies. His garb is that Of
q well to do business man, and were it
not for the number of rare and valuable
jewels he wears he would not attract at
tention. His shirt front is adorned with
q cluster of twelve diamonds of five
carets each. valued at $4,000. He has
finger rings, a jeweled fob chain and a
watch incrusted with $4,000 worth of
precious stones.
He lives in Providence and is reputed
to be richer than the common run of
Romany noblenen. He is here superin-
tending the building of what will be the
handsomest and most costly gypsy van
ever seen. Its exterior will be decorated
with oil paintings, and the Ornamental
figures and trimmings will be gold and
silver plate. The interior, of quartered
oak with metal and French plate glass
trimmings, is fitted with the daintiest
specimens of furniture, which will give
it the look of a handsome home in minia-

Carrying a Voice Into Africa.

Although the general public hEe
reason to complain Of the delay in
placing the phonograph within their
reach, one still hears occasionally of the
ingenious invention. Professor Garner.
who has left to study the language Of
apes in Africa, takes with him mes
sage of introduction to the chief Of
Lukalela in the middle Congo country
The message is from Mr.. E. j. Glave,
who knows the country and its people
well, having spent three years there,
and it is on one of the delicate little
wax barrels which take the impression
of the voice in the phonograph.
By the aid of the apparatus, lent to
him, it is to be presumed, by special
favor Of the inventor, Mr.. Garner will
reproduce in the heart of Africa his
friends voice, conveying a request to
the people of Lukalela, many of whom
he calls by name, that they may aid
him in his work, treat him kindly in all
respects and always speak the truth

A Modern Haul.

When we read concerning a western
main robbery that the robber got about
$1,000, we are invited to contrast the
new highwaymanry with the old. In
the older time if bold spark took to
the road and held up his coach perhaps
he got watch or two and maybe a
handful of gold thrust hastily in the lin
ing. But that was about as much as he
could hope for. The purse or so most
resolutely snatched with crying "Stand
by was as absolutely spent in a single
night with crying Bring in" The ca
reer attracted not merely discharged
soldiers and Alsatian ruffians, but de-
cayed gentlemen and shabby bucks.
One lady diarist records how her
father, a stout naval officer, on one oc-
casion captured Master Highwayman
and was shocked to recognize in him a
son Of his own admiral. The bluff
tar spake him an admonition. received
his promise of amendment, gave him
some pieces of gold and let him 60
The promising youth was ultimately
hanged all the same. Modern western
railway highwaymanry is radically
different business.
Eight thousand dollars is fair but
not excessive haul to make by success
full coup. Now it shall take the average
man in any walk of life some years to
put so large sum to the good. The
temptation to make it all at a stroke is
30 strong that rather than wonder at the
anfarprieaa of this sort fbat oof1, IL =,
