For Tate's Pardon.

A petition, asking Governor
Brown to pardon James w. Tate,
the late State Treasurer, has been
in circulation in this and adjoining
counties for the past week and
has been numerously signed
over four hundred persons having
attached their names in this city
alone.
The petition states that Tate
has already suffered much by vol
untary banishment, even if he is
guilty; that he has expiated what
ever misdeeds in this particular
he may have heedlessly committed;
that there is reason to believe
Tate was more sined against than
sinful; that if he took any Of the
public funds improperly it was
from an excessive amiability and
disinclination to say no to his
friends than through any premedi-
tated desire to defraud the State.

by Capt. Swango's men by the
score of 10 to "A very close
game.
The visitors put up very stiff
defensive and offensive game. and
on two occasions held their oppo-
nents for four downs when they
were within five yards Of making
a touchdown. They lost the
game on fumbles, one of which
was indirectly and the other di.
rectly responsible for the two
touch-downs scored by the locals.
The first of these occurred in
the first half Wintersmith fell
on the ball as it was dropped by
the Winchester back, and, after
several center plays the ball was
passed 10 him for d run around left
end. Guarded by the splendid
interference of Swango and the
line, he passed the entire Win
chester team and made a touch
down, on which Swango failed to
kick goal, owing to a head wind
which swerved the ball. This
was the prettiest play of the game,
the distance gained being over
fifty yards.
When the first half closed the
score was 4 to o in our favor,
Winchester having the ball near
the center line.
Soon after the beginning of the
second hall, with the ball about
thirty yards from Frdnkfort's gal,
the other tumble Was made, and
! VanDrrveer secured the ball in
exactly the same way he did on
Thanksgiving day. Nearly all Of
the Winchester men being in the
scrimmage, Dick had clear field,

yards for the other touchdown.

wind. Score = Frankfort, 10;

Time was called with the ball
dangerously near Winchester's
goal line, where by magnificent
defensive work they had kept the
home boys from again scoring, but
had just obtained the ball on four
downs when the game ended.

The blaze started in the Office on the

peration the women chung to the burn
ing frame work until a ladder was rails

ready scorching his almost naked body
and he jumped to the stone pavement.

iremen arrived with ladders which
they raised and the work of rescuing
the imprisoned inmates Systematically

The Silver Question.

The Senate finance committee, by a
majority of one on Saturday adopted,
motion authorizing the chairman,
Mr.. Voorhees,, to so amend the law
governing the issue of national bank
notes as to permit the issue of notes to
the par value of the bonds deposited as
security therefor. Senator Vest is said
to have made q speech to the commit
tee in which he declared that no bill
which ignored silver could pass the
Senate as at present constituted. A
poll of the opinions of Senators, shows
a majority of six against the uncondi-
tional repeal of the Sherman law.
There is talk of a compromise silver
bill in the Senate, which the anti-silver
members are not disposed to reject,
provided free coinage, even at an in.
creased ratio, is not included. Until
the House shall have voted on the re-
peal bill, there will be no discussion OF
silver legislation in the Senate: If the
vote of the House in favor of the re-
peal of the Sherman law is very decis-
i've it may have an important bearing
upon the action of the Senate. Senator
German favors unconditional repeal,
but is said to be willing to set aside his
private views for any policy the Senate
steering committee may think best to
adopt.
The President, it is said, gill not sign
a free-coinage bill if passed by Congress,
no matter what the ratio may be.
