That's a very weighty name to be carried
about by one who is barely Is years Of
age, says the Philadelphia Record. 1t is
borne by the charming daughter of the
Duke de Veragua.
The senorita is a pretty girl, without
being able to lay claim to any special
regularity of features. She is bright
and extremely vivacious Her cheeks
are full of the color of health. and her
eyes fairly dance from an overflow of
animal spirits. Her eyes and hair are
dark, and her teeth suggest kings
ransom in pearls.
She speaks English very well, being
the only member of the ducal family
who converses at all in that tongue.
She learned It with the British accent.

tions were made for It. Miss Atkins

seau. On Tuesday her mother had
another excuse to send her to the city,
and during her absence Gurnee and his
prospective mother.in-law gathered all
the valuables in the house, took what
money that was at hand and started
West. They left word that they had gone
TO Chicago.
Mrs Atkins is a well preserved woman,
about 40 years of age. and before the
elopement no one had suspected that she
entertained anything but maternal feel
ings toward young Gurnee The prop
erty stands in the name of the daughter,
but she will make no effort to recover
what the elopers carried away. It is
said that she has shipped her wedding
trousseau to her mother. TGurnee had

THIS attempt 10 keep officer HeIshock
on the police force after that exploit at
the Fifth ward polls in 1891 is shocking
The man was there as an officer Of the
peace, but when appealed to to preserve
the peace he refused with insolence and
blasphemy. 1t was an insult to all
Democrats and an imputation on the
fairness and decency Of all the members
of his own party to keep officer Her
shock on the force. The average man in
either party is fair and honorable. The
average Republican does not mean TO do
anything either us fair OF dishonorable, aud
yet this attempt to keep a man like
Hershock is both Hershock is not on
the present force. That is as It should
be. He has forfeited his right to be an
officer by not doing an officers duty.
The politicians may bluster as they
please but the Democrats are deter.
mined to have fair elections IL they
have to make the whole force Demo.
cratic to accomplish it. Voting
white, manly people as the Democrats
do, they have no fear that they can
not get in their votes without soldiers,
or marshals with hickory spokes They
are not exslaves who are lost now

The friends of Tony Stannard the
well known local pugilist who so quickly
and cleverly defeated Med" Cartwright,
the game fighter of Washington, d. c.,
fortnight ago, were busy this MOI ming
watching the telegraph offices and the
mails Stannard's hackers were to
receive their answer to-day from Cart.
wright in accordance with an agreement
made last Thursday in Washington.
Stannard and his hackers went to
Washington last Thursday and covered
Cartwright's forfeit of 800 to fight for
$500 stake and purse Of about $500, to
finish, with skin tight gloves
The two disagreed, however, as to the
location of the fight Stannard was
willing that it should take place at a
point down the Potomac river but not
too near Washington where Cartwrights
friends might rush in and break up the
fight II Stannard got on the winning side
To an EVENING JOURNAL reporter
Stanuard said this morning: "The
warm reception which this man Cart
wright met here paralyzed him, Although
| told him that he was rushing up
against no new beginner, he fought o
aimlessly that l knocked him silly before
be made his defence after catching his
left in my stomach. Il was no accident
his defeat, and the only mistake was
that he tumbled against the wrong man
The fellow was game to the last and
when he croaked after the fight had
been declared in my favor he pulled out
his purse, which contained $40, and
offered to put it up against any amount
that he could knock me out. He was
then staggering about the ring"
Standard intends to leave for the
West Immediately aftec his next fight
with Cartwright, or about the middle Of
June. at Cincinnati he will be joined
by his old friend and backeT, Tommy"

THE death of Harris will do good. It
viii teach men and boys that they must
not, that they shall trample chastity in
the dust-that they must respect and
guard maidenhood. It will teach more
That men must not be reckless with
human life. This villain concocted a
murder with the utmost skill. It was a
miracle of Providential interference that
he was exposed. The plan was so skill

the perpetrator actually defed detection
