broken away from Republicanism. That

ballot law. just what majority he will
have in the electoral college is as yet
undetermined But this is not essential.

Stories of Lord Strathnairn During His
Famous India Campaign.
ghpff1eld England, Telegraph


Famous India Campaign.
Sheffield, England, Telegraph.
A correspondent, writing of the late
Lord Strathnairn, says he was the most
indolent lackadaiscal, languid person
who ever dawdled along Piccadilly.
When he was devastating Central
India, winning the splendid victories
that immortalized his name, he was so
lazy that he could not be got to dictate
the dispatches recording his own
triumphs.
Months elapsed before these docu-
ments could be extracted from him, and
then they were brief and meagre to the
last degree,
One day when Sir Hugh Rose, he was
entertaining a gallant company to din
ner during the crisis of the mutiny.
With the utmost sang froid he was
delighting those near him with one Of
his best anecdotes
In the middle of il his orderly entered
and, after saluting, exclaimed: "Wc
have captured 200 rebels, sir"
10 him the general turned and, with
that elegant courtesy of manner on
which he prided himself, serenely re-
piled:
'Thank you, sergeant"
But the man still remained.
Again interrupting his chief, he said !:
"But what are we do with them, sir?"
"Oh," replied Sir Hugh, with soft
smile, "hang them, Of course" and he
resumed his anecd0to
In little while Sir Hugh was again
interrupted in the middle of another
story by the sergeant, who came in and
said: "Plcasc sir, we've hung the let,
sir"
The general turned, bowed slightly,
and, in the sweetest manner lispcd /;
"Thanlis, sergeant, very many thanks"
and then went on with his anecdote, as
if nothing had happened.
This story came to the cars Of the
queen, and she was SO angry that it
nearly cost Sir Hugh his pcerage.

Only the Goodness and Bravery of a Few
Men Avert u Terrible Disaster : The
Panic Caused by u burning stable Across
tile Street From the Mlddletown Opera
House--Three Horses Burned I" Death.
Special Cnrrespondenceo Gazette and Journal
MtpDLETowN, Nov. S.--During the per-
fornances of the Moss Family ut the Opera
House here, last evening the cry of fire
was raised, and the audience leaped to
their feet as one man and made mad
rush for the doors. Ladies' tainted, others
were thrown to the floor and trampied
under foot, and for few moments it
looked us though nothing but miracle
could save them from death or serious
injury.
The efforts of the managers, John McIn-
tyre and w. L. Letherbury, alone pre-
vented such disastrous result, the general
impression being the building was falling,
as the electric light wires emitted buazing
sound, caused by the main circuit being
directly over the burning structure.
The latter. it was afterwards learned,
was the stable OF w. $. Letherbnry,
directly opposite the Opera House, and in
the most thcltly bulf-up portion of the
town. 1t has been looked upon as fire
trap for several years it being divided by
l5-foUt alley only, from the hotel
stables, and only u small yard between il

10 minutes was a seething mass of

screams of the imprisoned horses. three OF

The battle of the ballots has been

liberties been SO alarmingly threatened.

The New York IPor!d says: Forty
five years ago Samuel Clinton Willcts
married Miss Mary Evans at Erie, Pa.
A daughter was born to them. Then
trouble arose, and one night away went
wife and child, He heard in later years
that his wife was dead and he married
again, and son was born to him. When
this son grew up he married, and his
wife was a young and beautiful woman
whom he had met in Cleveland. The
son and wife lived with their father
until the death Of the son, which took
place in 1888, and then Samuel Clinton
Willetts married his sons widow. From
time TO time Mrs, Wiletts told her hus
band incidents Of her girlhuod which
seemed strangely familiar, until 1T last
the conclusion was forced upon him
that lie had married his own daughter.
II seems that his first wife moved to
Cleveland and married Il man named
Wright, who deserted her and then She
died, and her daughter earned her own
living until she met the son of her
present husband and father, This would
