Our Irish friends were strong
Cleveland hackers. Since the
election they are being forgotten
and ignored. Senator Faulkner
has secured positions for one OF
two land perhaps more) of his
colored political brethren, but we
have not heard of the appoint
ment of any of his Irish friends.
They are sure anyhow in the
Democratic party's political vest
pocket. Let them once be indie
pendent, cut loose from the par
ty lash, vote as they please at the
Corporation election, and the
Democratic leaders will soon
recognize them and see that they
are represented in the party's
appointments. Try it Monday
and see how we'll it works.

Two- PATIENTS IN A DlspehsAaY.
A Small Newsboy and Big Fireman
Each Undergo an Operation.

A Small Newsboy and Big Fireman
Each Undergo an Operation.
Late one evening a man was seated in
the receiving room of one Of the dispen-
saries in the lower part of the city. He
was talking to young surgeon who had
charge of the room, and the converse
ton turned to the subject of the courage
shown by young folks as compared with
that Of adults.
''It's all bosh," said the visitor, "about
child standing pain better than man.
Why, it stands to reason
"Hullo!" says the surgeon. Whats
this?'
"It's me-"
The visitor turned and saw two bare
footed urchins, one about eight, and the
other perhaps year younger. The elder
came in carrying his companion, whom
he carefully laid on the lounge. Then
he raised himself and said:
me and Dannie re newsboys, and
just now he stepped on busted bottle
in de park and cut his foot"
"And you carried him oil the way
from the park here on your back?"
"Yep."
The doctor had washed the blood from
the foot and disclosed deep, ragged cut
about three inches long. He carefully
washed and dressed 1t and was about to
thread his needle to take few needed
stitches when the patient spoke up for
the first time:
10
Eyes, my little man. 1t can't heal
without it."
"Oh-h-h-hy'
He lay back, and after one suppressed
groan the tears which trickled down
his cheeks alone told the story of the
pain. The sole of the foot of an ordi-
nary New York newsboy is not very
easy thing for even the sharpest needle
to pierce, and the pain of the operation
was much increased. While it was 60
ing on member of the New York fire
patrol entered and sitting himself in a
chair waited with evident impotence
for his turn to arrive. The sewing fin
ished, the foot was bandaged, and the
young Styrax took up his burden.
How far have you to go?' asked the
doctor.
"Over to Oliver street"
1t was full half mile to Oliver street,
but the youth took up his burden cheer
fully.
well, sir, what can do for your
said the surgeon to the man.
The patrolman was magnificent
specimen Of physical manhood, tall,
broad and muscular.
well, you see, was hitchin up the
bosses, and they started and threw Inc
down.. l fell on my hand there" he
was considerably swollen. To find the
cause of the swelling the doctor began
to run his fingers along the injured part,
but he had hardly begun when his wrist
was seized in grip like iron.
Hold on there, doc; that hurtsr'
"Of course it does, but / have to find
out what's the matter"
Again he tried, and again he was pre-
vented.
"How do you think l can fix your
hand when you won't let me find out
what's the matter with it?"
II know that, but l can't stand it, he
began.
Hold his arm, a couple of you." said
the surgeon to the attendants, who had
come in, attracted by the noise. The
mans arm was held, and it was found
that the hand had been merely sprained.

"A GHOUL GETS A JOB. +"

Samuel Morss, editor of the
Indianapolis Sentinel, has been
appointed consul general at
Paris. Morss made himself no
torious during the Cleveland
Blaine campaign of 1884 by as
persing the character of Mrs.
Blaine-by providing about the
tombstone of her dead babe in
search of proof that she had not
been married the proper length
of time when it was born. Mr..
Blaine made the mistake of SUI
ing Morss for libel instead of
pumping a bucketful of buck
shot into his rotten carcass.
Had he chosen the latter course
no power on earth could have
prevented his elevation to the
presidency. Blaine owed it to
his wife, to his dead babe, to
his own self-respect, to his party,
to kill Morss and to kill him so
dead that Gabriel could not re-
surrect him with a steam fog
horn. He failed to do his duty
and lost the presidency, as he
well deserved to do. And now
Blaine has gone down to his
grave a disappointed man, while
this defamer of a good woman,
this ghoul who loiters about
church yards and attempts to
discover discrepancies between
the age of the dead infants and
their mothers marriage certifi-
cate, is given fat Office by the
man whom fool luck allowed to
defeat an infinite brainier oppo-
nent for the highest honors of
the nation! Respect for the
memory of Mr.. Blaine, re-
spect for his own party and
his own administration should
have induced Mr.. Cleveland to
treat the application of this sour
Wy Hoosier pencil-pusher with
profound contempt. He is a
fine character to send abroad to
represent a brave and chivalrous
people!-a people that stands
fore most among the nations of
the earth for courtesy to the
gentler sex, for respect paid the
sacred name of wife and mother.
Samuel Morss, of Indiana, is not
only disgrace to journalism
and to American sovereignty; he
is disgrace to every two-leg-
ged he-thing that stands up in
Gods sunlight and calls itself
a man.
If the devil were his father he
would dishonor his dam if born
in hell he would cast discredit
upon the land of his birth if en-
ployed to feed hyenas with the
offal of apes he would be inf
nitely beneath his occupation

l.. Norrington, of this place.
She was white washing and
cleaning up house all day Thurs
day, and eat a hearty supper and
went to bed as well as usual.
She was taken sick between 10
and IL o'clock and died in Is or
20 minutes. The doctor was sent
for but she was dead for some
time before he got there. Heart
trouble was the cause of her
death aged SO years, 2 months
and 10 days. She was a mem
Der of the LIST NJ. E. Church. She
leeves a husband and 6 children,
one an infant II weeks old to
mourn her loss. May their loss
be her gain.
Farewell, dear mother thou hast left US,
And thy loss we deeply feel,
But it is God that has bereft us,
He can all our SORROWS heal.
A loving mother from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
Jesus, while our hearts are bleeding,
On the spoils that death has won,
We would at this solemn meeting,
Calmly say Thy will be done.
Though cast down re not forsaken.
Though afflicted, not alone;
Thou didst give and Thou hast taken,
Blessed Lord Thy will be done.
May II. Crow.

A MODERN SCHOOL OF CRUEL
TY.-In this age humane educa-
ton is just as essential to good
government and society as a re-
ligious education. Yet there
never was such an era of cruelty
among children and youth. Such
sports as hunting and fishing
are aboutexhausted. The lovers
of bloody sport now find amuse-
ment in prize fights, chicken
fights, dog fights, bird shooting,
&c, The youthful element graf
ify their cruel propensities by
destroying birds, insects, any
thing that can creep or crawl.
Even small children by the doz-
ens,-- mere infants,-crowd un-
der the arc lights for hours and
beat down insects, bats, and
bugs, attracted by the glare.
The ground is literally covered
with dead and crippled insect
life, left to be ground up by trav-
ell or burnedlby the searching
sun. These are reign of terror
schools, wholly at variance with
the christian humanity of the
age. Parents, teach your child
rem the sacred rights of every.
thing living, and that Gods Gre
atures are entitled to life, liberty
and mercy alike from the tiniest
insect to the being of giant
intellect called man. 1t will
