Bruin Takes a Ride.

The engineer on western New York
train picked up queer passenger re-
Gently. One evening he saw something
come from the bushes at one side of
the railroad, step upon the track and
stand still between the rails. At first
he thought it was man, but when the
rays of the headlight fell on the object
he saw that it was bear. The train
was. moving very fast and the engineer
blew the whistle loudly, but the bear
held his place calmly until almost run
down and then stepped off. This rash
bear must have enjoyed its experience,
for three times during the following
week it repeated the performance.
But when it came out for the fifth time
1T had grown careless and the cow
catcher knocked it up in the air. Then
the train was stopped and the train
men searched for the bear. But bruin
had crawled away somehow into a
laurel swamp and is there yet, proba-
bly,, but whether dead or alive no one
knows.

Denver in June.
THE RATIO OF REPRESENTATION
Each State Will Have Ten Delegates at
Large in Addition to Four From
Each Congressional District

CHICAGO, March 1.-THE official call
for the annual convention of the Nation
al Republican League will be issued
from the national headquarters in this
city tomorrow. The convention will be
held at Denver, June 26, and will con-
tinue several days. The ratio of repre-
sentati"n gives each state practically 10
delegates at large, in addition to four
from each congressional district. The
total representation will exceed 1000
delegates. The call reads in part as fol-
lows:
Democratic control and sectional rule
are again complete in the national gov
ernment, and starvation for labor and
ruin for capital prevail as the result of
the policies and influences that domi-
nate the democratic party. The hallu-
cinations of 1892 are over. Facts have
upset theories, and the people now turn
instinctively to the party that saved the
nation in the previous hour of peril, and
demonstrated its mastery ability in Civ
ing the United States 80 years of pros
perity unparalleled in the history of ma
IIOAS. again IL DcConeS Cne mission
and duty of the grand old party to meet
the national emergency with the high

necessity, but rises to the occasion. The
struggle for liberty, progress, fair wages
and all that America promises did not
end with the defeat of 1892. The fight
must and will go on. To this end the
national committee of the league cor
daily invites all patriotic citizens who
are in sympathy with the policies and
aspirations of the republican party to

Clerk Fox Takes Good and BAD
News to Murderers.

T Special to the Jersey CITY Nesos.
TRENTON, June 26, 1S94.-Eddie Fox, who
has been the executive clerk to ten sue
cessive Governors, has probably earn led
more reprieyes and death warrants than any
other man in the United States, numbering
over thirty. Within the past month be has
carried four and within the past week two.
After the meeting Of the Court of Pardons
on Tuesday the Governor gave him re-
prisves which stayed the execution of Joseph
Wallwitz. the convict who murdered Keep
er Lippincott In the State Prison, and Rich-
ard Pierce, the colored man who cut his
wife's throat, both men having been sen
fenced to be hanged on Friday. On Tues
day night Fox went to the Mercer County
Jail and delivered the reprisve for Wall
WITT. On Wednesday he journeyed to Cape
May and delivered to the Sheriff of that
county a reprieve for Pierce. He did not
get to see the murderer, because he Is CON
being. no jail at Cape May at this time, the
old one having been demolished to make way
for a new one, now being erected,
Mr.. Box states that of ali the touching ex-
periences he has had in carrying reprieves
and death warrants, the most sensational
was during the administration Of Governor
Parker. Lusig Manno, an italian, was con-
victeda of murder in the Morris County
Court. He stabbed in the heart the man
that had betrayed his wife. Governor
Parker became interested in the case ahd
was persuaded that Manno should not be
hung. On the day fixed for the execution
he granted a reprieve and called the Court
Of Pardons together and urged them to
favorably consider the Communication Of
seatsnce Of death to imprisonment for life.
The case had attracted much attention and
when the Court of Pardons met there was an
array Of counsel present. to plead for the
Italian The court refused to make the
communication. When Governor Parker
heard this he sank into q chair and wept for
some time. A few days later Fox was sent
to the Morris county jail with the death
warrant. He stood beside tbs Sheriff while
he read the fatal words At that time the
public was discussing the case Of, General
Daniel Sickles, who had shot Barton Keys.
The Italian had followed the case and was
encouraged by the fact that General Sickles
did not hang. AS soon as 1.-The words were
uttered which condemned him to execution,
he grabbed the grating of his cell door and
stared wildly at Fox, saying, De richa mar
he go free; me, a poor devil, with no mon,

door like q demon and his eyes seemingly
turned to balls Of fire. Fox begged the
Sheriff to let him out, and his wish was
gratifed. At Is E65 q

THE DISCOUNTED BLAINEs.

The James q. Blaine Association met last
night. The members are dissatisfied with
the way things are going. They want jobs,
but the city officials who have power to
place men appear to nave forgotten them.
Some other G.. 0. p. clubs with a large
membership of office seekers are wondering
if the Blaines want the moon as well as the
earth. The new Lamp Inspector, John T.
Davidson, is President Of the Blaine Associa7
ton. Building Inspector Neill and the In
spector of Scales, Weights and Measures are
members. The club workers want places
under the Street and Water Commissioners,
but the outlook for getting them is not
bright. With a view to scooping in more
pap, patronage committee of three, consist
ing Of John T. Davidson, John Driscoll and
Charles Reinecke was appointed to wait up
on Mayor Wanser and all the boards in con-
troll of republicans and ask why members
of the association, known to be party work
ers cannot be supported out of the city
measure.
