Large Number OF Prominent Demo.
cratic Politicians Present-what the
Governor Said.
ALBANY, Dec. 31.-The farewell ban
quet rendered to Governor Hill by the
democratic state officers tonight at the
Kenmore hotel brought together a large
number of prominent democratic poll
ticians. The banquet hall was handsome
ly decorated. There were $50 guests On
the back of the cover of the menu in col
ors was a rising sun with the figures
1892" obscuring it. At the top of the
title page of the menu proper were the
words, Farewell Governor" and at the
bottom of the page were the words, "All
Hail. U. S. Senator" At the head of the
table sat Secretary of State Frank Rice,
with Governor Hill and Governor-elect
Flower on his left, the incoming and out
going state officers being seated each side
of the governors.
Among others present were members of
the democratic committee, members of the
stats of the outgoing and incoming gov
ernore, James 81. Manning, Thomas F.
Grady, Edward Murphy, jr., Bourke
Cochrane, John B. Fellowes, st Clair
McKelwsy, John Boyd Thatcher, General
Framework, s. J. Tilden, jr, General
Picketts, Judge F. R, Gilbert and Senator
Mclaughlin. Governor Hill made fare
well address.
The governor said: cit is a time of
strife-either physical, moral or political
that test mems fortitude. Most men take
to contention like babies to their mothers
milk. OF course, there are some who pre-
fer placid lives. I have heard of men
calling themselves scholars and believ-
ing themselves in politics, who hate
nothing 30 much as the boisterous
high seas that keep American freedom
pure, But most of u.s.. am
contentious which absorb cur active
powers; and unless we find ourselves, now
and then, standing dauntless and un-
wearied, knee-deep IN jungle of the
shafts of calumny and broken arrows of
bownmen who had missed their mark, I
| suppose we should have the sensation of
discomfort and complain of cold feet.
cannot believe 1t is time of peril or of
| strife to try mems souls. 1t is parting
| from the tried and true comrades of long
| day that wrenches the heart strings. For
the one who is hidden away from the fell
| lowship of such a strife or of dutiful toll
goes forth companionless; and whether the
days darken around him or brighten, and
whether the first or the last "well done" is
sounding in his ears, from those whom
with his utmost strength he has labored to
serve he goes forth companionless among
new men, strange faces, other minds.

Father Ohrvalderfn Favor OF Recon
querins the Soudan.


CAIRO, Dec. 31.-Father Ohrwalder,
who recently escaped from Omdurman. is
strongly in favor of reconquering the
Soudan. He declared to-day that Mahdism
has been expiring ever since the death of
the so-called Mahdi, the lstter's followers
realizing that he was not the true Mshdi
and that his successor, Mahdi Khalifa,
pretended to be believer because he had
been nominated to power. Mahdi Khalifa,
who is now forty three years old, is losing
his energy. He leads q luxurious life,
possessing barem with $50 inmates. He
has abandoned all designs to extend his
power northwsrd. The priest attributes
the failure of the Mahdfs operations be-
yond Dongola solely to the presence of the
British in Egypt The Mahdi means to
attack the Italian forces at Bisha, fret or
ganizing an expedition of 1000 troops to
take Kasssla.

MONTREAL, Dec. 31.-There was great
sensation in Catholic circles to-day over
a rumor that Pope Leo had been assassin

sieged by anxious inquirers and apparent
credit for the rumoN was received
in two or three quarters. 1t is not
known how the rumor originated. Fa-
Their Drummond has since received official
