A Phase Of the Blaine Boom.


/ 1t would have been rather remarkable II,
in all the talk about nominating Mr.. Blaine
at Minneapolis, no mention had been made
of the unfortunate divorce case of James G.
Blaine, Jr., and Marie Nevins. Immedi-
ately after Mr.. Blaine wrote his remarkable
letter criticlsing the utterances of the d.
kota judge who granted the divorce and
putting the conduct Of his son in a much
more favorable light than that
of the divorced wife. Miss New
ms declared she would publish the
love letters from James g. Blaine, Jr.,
to her, which letters, she declared, con-
tanned all the vindicaton she desired and
which exhibited the Blaine family in any
thing but a favorable light. For some
reason or other the letters were not pub
lished. But there are grounds for thinking
that Miss Nevins has not finally decided
not to publish them. She may have con-
Guided that the time would come when she
could get very handsome price for them.
The appearance In Washington last Mon
day Of Father Thomas F. Ducey the Cath-
Ole priest who married young Blaine and
Miss Nevins, caused little flutter OF ex~
hLlOuk tuS pOllClCAdus dLu n6Wb-
paper men. He declined to say what the
purpose OF his visit was, except that be was
in Washington at the request Of Mr.. Blaine.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Blaine
wrote HIM a very sharp letter, severely
condemning him for performing the mar
riage ceremony. He answered, but his
letter did not get into print. Although it
is understood that both Mr.. and Mrs.
Blaine deeply regretted that the letter criti-
cising Father Duoey had been written.
and have taken occasion to assure
him Of their regret, it is not
believed that his presence In Washington
has anything to do with that letter. 1t is
believed that Mr.. Blaine is afraid that the
letters of young Blaine. which, it is alleged,
contain evidence of the hostility of both
Mr.. and Mrs. Blaine to the Catholic church,
will get into print. II they should they
would greatly interfere with MIR. Blaine's
political plans, if he has any idea of receiv-
ing the nomination at Minneapolis. Mr..
Blaine has a very lively recollection of the
little speech Of DR.. Burchard In 1884 in which
Rum, Romanism and Rebellion" were
linked together. and it is thought that he
hopes to prevent through Father Ducey the
publication Of the letters. If this is the ex-
PLANTATION of Father Ducey's visit it is evil
dence that Mr.. Blaine is not yet wholly
free from political ambition.

Gov. Fiower,s Fish story.

Gov. Flower, says an Albany IN. } special
to the New York Times. brought home from
the north woods last week brand new fish
story, as follows:
I'm order to make the events in my story DOS
sible must go back three years before my visit
to Dannemora. An old guide hooked salmon
in a lake, the name of which can't remember
three years ago. In the boat with him were a
man and his young wife The latter persisted
in carrying parasol When the guide got the
salmon in the boat the woman became fright
ened, and with her parasol jabbed one of the
flsh's eyes out
las she did SO, the fish became unlocked. and
was overheard in a twinkling. The guide made
spring for the fish, but the unlucky parasol
ferrule penetrated his eye and destroyed its
sight. The guide wore a glass eye afterward,
and when went fishing Tuesday this same
guide took me to the lake spoken Of. BY some
accident the guide lost his glass eye overheard.
When turned my gaze from him he had two
eyes, when returned it he had but one. The
guide bewailed his lot, and promised to send
him bushel of glass eyes if he would only take
me where we could get some big fish.
"wednesday we went back to the lake. NY

The guide cast his one eye on my pole and line
and exclaimed: Something big, gown
knew that from the way the object at the other
end acted. Together we hauled the fish,
should say fisnes-out. One was large salmon
and the other a good-siZed trout. The trout
was hanging to the eye OF the salmon with his
mouth. The guide pulled the fishes apart, and
with an exclamation of joy said: There's my
eye
1.-THE eye that he had dropped overheard the
day before was in the head OF the salmon, which
was the same fish that the guide had lost three
years ago after the young woman had poked its
eye out. The trout was just in the act of putting
the eye in the salmon when the latter was
caught.
Funny coincidence, wasn't it," and the gov
ernor bent over his work again, while the CORE

Satisfactorily Explained.

1t wasn't two minutes after the first passen-
ger cried out that he had been robbed before
EXPLANATIONS of surprise and indignation were
heard from end to end of the sleeping car says
the New York Herald. When they came to
compare notes it was found that every passen-
ger but one had been touched" more or less
heavily. The exception was a tall, stoop-
shouldered man, whose face betrayed secret
sorrow. He admitted, when questioned, that
nothing had been taken from him.
Its very funny that you should have been
excepted observed a man who had lost $780,
THE thieves seemed TO be posted on who to
let alone, added a second victim.
This thing is going to be looked into right

you were not robbedf"
II haven't missed anything"
Don't it look rather queer that you alone
should be exempted?" u
II can't see that 1t does"
well the rest Of US can. Can you identify
yourself?"
The man with a secret sorrow hunted for his
pocket book. He placed 1t on his knee and
searched among a lot of newspaper clippings
until he found card. 1t was a card of the vim
tage of two years before, but it held together
as he handed it over and whispered moment
to his questioner.

an apology. He wasn't robbed Of anything be-
cause he is dead broke and travelling on dead

Another Cotton OIL Product.

Is the cotton plant limitless producer of
commoditiesl 1t would seem to be very
nearly so. Already it supplies half dozen
or more articles of everyday use, and ex-
perimenters are constantly discovering new
possibilities in the lint, seed and oil. The
latest discovery, which promises to be of the
greatest commercial value, in cotton seed
oil has been made by Mr.. J. G. Carter, OF
this city. According to a report in the
MORNING NEWS a day or two ago, he
claims to have discovered process whereby
a substitute for india rubber can be pro-
duced from the oil.
The process is, Of course, his secret, and
as a business man he will guard it
closely. But 1t may be presumed
that the resinous substance known to exist
in cotton oil is the base upon which he
works to obtain his rubber substitute. This
resin is one of the chief objections to the
use of cotton oil as a substitute for lard or
for lubricating purposes. IL creates an un-
pleasant odor aud taste in cooking, and
gums" machinery on which it is used as a
lubricant. During the past few months a
Frenchman has perfected process for re-
hAC'AbS WIG AOoALt oAA q ANOW OAAcduS O1A
refinery is now putting in apparatus by
which the process can be- utilized. Cleared
of the resin, it is believed the oil will spring
into favor as a table and lubricating
oil as we'll as for culinary purposes.
If, as has been surmised, Mr.. Carriers rub
Der substitute is based on the resin in the
oil, the object Of his process is just the re-
verse of that to be employed in the New
Orleans refinery. Instead of separating oil
and resin he solidifes them. He builds
upon the resin instead of extracting it, and
obtains pliability by allowing the oil Tor a
part of it, TO remain in the mass.
But. whatever the process, II it will do
what its originator claims, it will increase
the market for cotton oil, and thereby ben
eft the cotton producer, who Is very much
in need Of the assistance of an increased de-
mand and better prices for his cotton crop

Ex-President R. B. Hayes believes that
America should be the peacemaker among
nations, and should "suffer wrong rather
than do wrong" especially in dealing with
other nations. But if any power on earth
should presume to knock the chip off her
shoulder he would have America "pulver-
ize' the offender. as the Emperor of Gers
many would say. In his Memorial day
speech at Columbus, O., Gen. Hayes said:
when America is driven into war let that
war end only with humiliation of the power
that caused it. Let it be understood that
whoever makes war with America will
never make war again. Our gospel is peace.
If war must come its aim and end should
bring peace that cannot again be broken by
the same offender"

hog" In a few more there were observations
derogatory to the character of the two-seaUed

man who had the largest half of a seat got so
mad at seeing seven people have TO stand up
that he blurted out:
