1t happened by some curious chain of
circumstances that all but one of the
seven surviving ex-Speakers of the

in Washington aweek or SO ago. Roberto G.

of eighty-three years, paid his respects

it is member of an ancient family OF

The stem of the rose is of solid gold, and
measures one metre sixty centimetres.
The cup of the flower is of the most deli

similarly set with small gems, in resem-
blance of dewdrops. The whole work of
art lies in a magnificent case of white
satin, mounted with silver studs.
The late Miss Edwards was member

the Society for the Promotion of Hellenic
Studies and of the various Oriental con-
crosses which are from time to time
held in various European capitals. She
was also an active promoter of the OBJ

which she has been for some years the
honorary secretary. During the winter
1889-90 she delivered no fewer than 115
lectures on Egyptology in the United

of Columbia College received the honor

nominate, atleast whom it shall not nom

fact that he con rolls a large number of
ignorant voters in New York State, with
out whose votes the Democracy cannot
carry that State. When the decent Dem
ocrats OF that State reflect that this pow

through their assistance, they must feel
very much like kicking themselves for
their shortsightedness and folly.

If the dispatches from Berlin are true
the young German Emperor has been
guilty Of another of those strange acts
which have puzzled the German
people of late and made them speculate
as to whether mailman was occupying
the throne. The two soldiers whom he
publicly complimented had been guilty
of wantonly shooting down two German
laboring men. Instead of a reward what
they really deserved was punishment.
But the Emperor's commentator of the
soldiers was most ELUSIVE, and it may
be well believed that it has excited gen.
eral indignation among the people.

The Boies boom will not extend be
yond the State of Iowa.

The Massachusetts House of Represen-
tatives has made complete turn-a-bout
in The matter of the endowment orders,
and the Powers bill, which was passed a
few days ago and which was drawn in
the interest of the orders, is certain even
tually to be defeated altogether or to be
so loaded down with amendments as to
completely destroy it's original character.
The General Court after it had passed
the Powers bill encountered such storm
of public sentiment that it wisely de-
cided to recede from its position.

The committee of Massachusetts, DEM
ocrats who went to Washington to labor
with the ways and means committee to
induce them to put iron on the free list
have come to the conclusion that their
task is hopeless. They have been quietly
informed that owing to the opposition
of Southern congressman it would not
be expedicnt to grant the Massachusetts,
request. This will be melancholy news
to the various Massachusetts, persons and
organs who promised that if Democrat
ic House was elected the Bay State
should have iron and coal free. But it is
just what might have been expected.
The Democrats are fishing for votes this
year, and there are good many more
votes for them in catering to the iron
producers of the South and West than to
the iron manufacturers of Massachusetts,.
Having got through the river and har-
Dor bill and made themselves solid
with their constituents, the Democrats
will now undertake to redeem their
pledges of economy by slashing appro-
priations right and left. The first effect
of their onslaught is the killing of
the appropriation for new mint in Phil
adelphia Probably this appropriation
is far more necessary than scores that
went through in the river and harbor
but as it disappoints nobody's constitu-
ents in particular it could be cut off
without any unfavorable effect upon
votes. There will be many more appro-
priations of this sort slaughtered, SIM
ply to enable the House to say that they
have cut down expenditures. At the
next session great many of them will
have to be made up, but it will be after
election then.

A rumor is about that Cleveland is
about to make public letter declining
to allow the use of his name before the
Democratic convention on the ground
that he could not, if nominated, owing to
quarrels within the party, carry New
York state. The story is probably pure
ly sensational and has no foundation,
except perhaps the wish of the people
who have set it afloat. Mr.. Cleveland
will doubtless abide by the decision of
the Democratic convention whatever it
may be, whether it accords with his own
judgment or not. If he had had any
other intention he would have manifested

The train rounded the curve and struck
a huge rock, which WAS loosened by frost
and had rolled from the high en-

the engine reached the trestle il
plunged down the embankment. The
train, grinding out flashes of fire from
the rails, swept by it safely, being

turning from a dance, at Braddock,
and having missed the last train, were
walking home. They had reached
Hawkins Station when the express
came around sharp curve. The sud

could step from the tracks the engine
was on them, and they were ground
