1t is to be hoped the law-abiding citizens
of Daviess county will adopt timely meas
ures to prevent the threatened lynching of
the murderers of the Wratten family. 1t is
true that the crime was of the most
heinous character, and hanging is almost
too good for it's bloody-handed perpetra-
tors, but the punishment should come in a
legal way. Daviess county has enough law
lessness to her account already without
adding to the dark record. 1t is the spirit
of lawlessness, fostered and encouraged by
mob violence and lynchings, that raises up
class of men capable of perpetrating such
shocking crimes as the murder of the
Wrattens. Now that the people of Da-
viess county are ready to wreak their VEN
geance on the guilty wretches is a good
time for law and order citizens to get to-
gether and take steps to prevent a lynch
ing.

FAILED TO AWAKEN HIM.
A Sleepy Conductors PerilOus Ride
Down a Mountains Side.

HAZLETON, Oct 24.-When coming into
the yard at Weatherly yesterday with his
train conductor John McHugh told one of
the brakemen to cut the caboose loose at
the lower end of the siding and let the en-
CINE take the train to point near the west
ern end. McHugh had then been on the
road for twenty hours, and his eyes were
heavy for lack of sleep. AS ordered. the
brakeman few minutes later pulled the
pin holding the caboose, and supposing
that the conductor would take care of the
caboose, continued UP the track with his
cars. He noticed later, however. that the
caboose had run out on the main line again,
and that McHugh had not yet appeared on
the platform. The road at this point is
marked by a grade which drops fifty feet
- the mile, and TO catch il was impossible.
Taking in the situation, the trainman has
tened 10 the telegraph Office and messages
were sent to the different stations below to
either sidetrack or derail the runaway ca
boose. 1t was not known whether the con-
ductor was on it or not. The operator At

THAT SLUM PILGRIMAGE.

The Indianapolis women who visited the
slums of Chicago injured themselves and
did their cause no good-New Albany
Ledger.
No doubt 1t is but a perversion of sin
cere purpose which led the ladies in ques-
ton to undertake their useless and dis
tressing visit Saturday night. But it is to
be hoped that neither they nor any others
will allow themselves to be msled into a
repetition of a practice so revolting.-Chi-
cago Record.
Eight estimable women, all from Indiana,
by the way, have been Summing in Chi

sorts Of "the levee' which keep up that To-
cality's reputation for wickedness and took

any good will come out of it Is, Of course
another queston.-Chicago Mail.
Whatever may have been the motives
which prompted them to explore the pal
aces of sin and the dens of vice in the
most abandoned district of Chicago, they
may rest assured that the great majority
of people who read of their expedition will
attribute ii to one unconfeSSed mOtive-the
curiosity which is strong in many wOm-

GERS doubtless sincerely felt that they were
performing a duty. The visit must have
been useful in opening their eyes to the
fact that any such pilgrimage by good

less-that the duty of the true female re-
former, however ardent, demands no such
sacrifice.-Chicago Herald.
If these women felt real pity for the I'M
happy creatures whose life. however spir-
ited is one of feverish wretchedness, they
stood therein close to the Divine Master
whom they particularly wish to serve. His
ministration did not abolish the prostitution
OF human passions to base ends. but it did
soften and ameiorate public opinion among
the poorer classes with whom he walked
against poor creatures taken in adultery.
In so far these Christian women are true
followers Of Christ-Chicago Times

THE DRIFTING DEMOCRATIC SEN
ATE.

Monday was announced as the day on
which the compromise bill of the Demo-
cratic senatorial steering committee would
be presented in the Senate. bearing the
names Of all the Democratic Senator'S ex-
cept four Before Monday was many hours
scheme of compromise had been abandoned.
During the hours of Sunday it had been
ascertained that the administration was
very hostile to it, consequently those Sena-
tors who had Endorsed the measure on the
ground that it was a compromise to which
the President had agreed made haste to get
off of the pledge to support it. They had
simply been deceived. And now there is
greater uncertainty relative to the repeal of
the Sherman purchase act than ever. The
abortive compromise has further muddled
things, 1t has shown a lack of good faith
on the part OF several Democratic Senators,
and of sound judgment on the part Of
others. AS Democratic Senator'S look at the
remains of the discarded compromise which
they agreed to support, they must be dis
gusted with it and themselves, since every
Senator who signed 1t admitted the neces-
sity Of the repeal of the Sherman act and
yet agreed to postpone it year without SO
much as giving pretext for such inconsist-
ency or gaining a vote in favor of 1t from
Ia of hr1t
an attempt to unity the Democratic party
in the Senate. The provisions Of the compro-
mise and it's unanimous rejection after be-
ing signed by all except four Democratic
Senators proves that the Democratic Sen
ate is not only without constructive capa-
city, but lacks stability of purpose
What next? The Democrats of the Sen
ate constitute majority, and the Vice
President is one Of them. Whatever policy
the Democrats can agree upon as a ma
jority. the Republican Senators will give
them a. quorum in which to give it the force
of law. Therefore. if nothing is done. the
Democratic Senators, and nobody else, are
responsible II they continue to hold ses-
sions day after day, leaving the silver Sen
ators to repeat their oft-repeated har-
augues, they confess to the country their
| incapacity to unite and act as a party or
| their unwillingness to do so. If the
Democratic majority cannot agree upon a
proposition to bring the Senate to a vote
upon the pending bill, it had better admit
it's incapacity as a party by an early ad-
| journment.

Under this provision it is quite possible
that the Council is estopped from granting

seven years, from Jan. 49, 1854, but the
Journal does not believe there is any
gcound for the claim that it is forever
estopped from doing so. Whatever may be
said as to the duration of the charter Of
the Citizens company, the life of it's fran

depends. Dealers are now waiting for

they have not the wherewithal to purchase.

fact that the mass of the American people
must first sell their labor before they can be
purchasers of goods?

WONDERFUL BOY.
Has a Penchant for Figures and Can Tell
Past, Present and Future Secrets.

NEW YORK Oct. A-Harry Lyon.
the eighteen-year-old son of an en-
gfneer on the elevated railroad is pos
sessed of some marvellous faculties that
do not belong to the ordinary boy. Under
certain circumstances he is mind reader,
as well as a mathematician. He has
been known to the police officers OF the
Yorkville district for long time, and has
afforded them no little amusement by hi-
shrewd guesses, which turn out To be-
prophecies. and some of the tests which
they have made of his gift of presclenc.
have proved to be exceedingly embarrass-
ing to those who provoked him. On one
occasion, Justice Thomas F. Grady asked
the boy to give him the number of the gold
watch which he GRADY carried in his
pocket Lyon gave him the number. and
on opening the watch it proved to be cor
rect, He then asked him the number of
the next engine that would come down
on the elevated road. Quick as a flash
he responded ISL and in a few min
utes No. Isl came putting along. He not
only gave the numbers of the cars that
would compose the next train, 1853, 365,
IT, 81, $50, but actually described the cars.
freshly painted; all the other cars are old
and dingy." Justice Grady went inside.
nnmbers tos the train and called of the
the cars had been given correctly; they ran
In the order named, and No. 16 was a
newly painted car; the others were old and
dingy.
The proprietor of a saloon asked the boy
to tell him the whereabouts OF a gold watch
that had been stolen from him. The boy
made no answer and the saloon man called
him fake. The boy retorted: I'll
tell your wife something about YOU" and
then he told a story which caused the in
terrogator 10 walk away, blushing TO the
roots Of his hair, and muttering: THAT
boy is too fly; he is liable to make lots OF
trouble"
The boy was taken to the World office
day or two ago and put through a series
of tests by the reporters with surprising
results. His tricks with numbers are as re-
markable as his prescience. If any one
wants TO test the boys powers by asking
for some facts in his own history he de-
mands photograph, which he studies ear
neStly before he goes to bed. He says that
in his sleep the whole life of the person
pictured in the photograph passes before
him in a dream Some days he says that
he read the secrets of a mans heart
on first meeting him. He is constantly
beset by cranks and sports who want tips
to the number of winning lottery tickets
and the horses that will win in the races.
He appears TO exercise his powers in this
direction very sparingly, although he has
given some valuable tips TO particular
friends. In intelligence he is rather below
the average boy. and when younger was
subject TO epilepsy He is now apparently
In excellent health.
