State Convention Of Massachusetts re-

the Massachusetts, Republicans to profess

What position do the Massachusetts
Republicans occupy relatively TO the silver
question? We all know that they are
what are called monometalllsts; that
they are out-and-out opposed TO the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 1s to /;
and that they have no sympathy with
any proposed solution of the silver ques-
ton which does not leave the silver
standard OF values as it now is. And yet,
IN their platform these Massachusetts
Republicans hold out to the man who
does not know the truth of the matter

Vice-President Stevenson has taken the
stump in Illinois on behalf of his party
and has made an able speech explaining
and defending our tariff bill.
Mr.. Stevenson Is not a great orator,
but he is man OF good capacity, and
Is able to talk the sort Of sense We like
TO hear in campaign such as this. The
people want information and the speaker
who gives his hearers the most informa-
ton will do the Democratic party most
service.
BY the way. Mr.. Stevenson Is a warm
friend Of Senator Hilrs. and has promised
Hin to go to New York and make two
speeches for him.

RACING AT NEW ORLEANS.
The Winter Meeting Opened and Sue,
cess Already Assured.

New Orleans, La, Dec. S.-The prophe-
cies of Charles Bush and Sheridan Clarke
of the Crescent City Jockey Club have
been verified and the winter meeting of the
club is an assured success.
Both of these gentlemen stated last
year that the club would open the To-day
meeting of '95 with the greatest eclat I'M
der the most promising circumstances.
They spoke of the improvements that
were contemplated. and have since ended
in fruition and the track is now in the best
possible condition. Large crowds can be
accommodated. quicker and better trans
portation facilities have been provided.
and there are now more horses at the track
who win compete in the events than have
ever appeared here before.
The influx of sporting men of the legiti-
mate class has been greater too, for this
time of the year. and the touts who gener-
ally assemble as early as possible are here
arrayed in all the glory of "whiskers on
their pants" and other means of identifi-
cation. The jockeys have nearly all re-
ported and everything is ready.
a number of horses arrived Yesterday.
among them W. Barricks stable from
Washington. He has u horses here. the
best of which are Dr. Hasbrouck and
Void. The other stables are: Smith &, Fer
guson, IA horses; Turner 5; j. b. Ernshaw
6; r. Bradley came in from St Asanh
with s.; G. w. Newton from Washington
with good string. and Frank Reagan
brought three. Bud Franklin Pepper's
trainer, is here with a string, and so is
Frank Wort. Stalls have been reserved
for Porter Ashe who is expected every
day with string of a dozen or So.
The boxes have been arranged for the
bookies and were placed in position to-
day in the betting ring. A conspicuous
sign nailed up on nearly all of the boxes
reads; mo dollar bets taken here
The officials who will preside during the

he pulled 500 and put IT. into the game, and
by streak OF luck he soon had the five
men broke. He then took his winnings
including his own 500. and divided them
into five equal parts and distributed the
money among the five men.
Il came into the game only 20 benefit

seen again for a year.
Butte photographer offered him 500
Tor the privilege Of taking his picture but
Petungil would not have &c. The pho
tographer. however, tried 10 take him un-
a"ares' but the wild man caught him in
the act, and took his costly camera away
from him and smashed il into toothpicls.
Ihat was the only attempt that was ever
made TO take photograph OF him.
PetungiH came 10 Montana during or
soon after the war. long before there was
any thought of building railroads into
the state, and when everything was
freighted in by "bull teams" Capt John
Brannigan Of this city one of the old
freighters, met him at the old town Of
Rochester about the time he first struck
that part Of the country. Capt. Branni-
gan stopped at Rochester with his freight
train. Among the drivers was the usual
bad man who looked for blood He en-
tered saloon and found Pettingin there
with lot Of freighters. The bad man be-
bdA NEluhluB ana threatened TO eat some
body and finally made a rush at a drunken
and inoffensive old man. He had an ugly
knife, and intended TO carve his victim.
Pettingill was sitting in a corner with his
old army rifle across his knees, and up 70
this time had not said word. but when
the bad man made his murderous attack
on the inoffensive fellow, Pettingill arose.

down. pulled a long knife from the boots
he was at that time wearinsl and walking
over to the bully he placeiihis hand on his
shoulder. saying: You have got a bad
heart; there is murder in it, and am going
to cut it out"
All the fight was taken out Of the bully
and he begged for mercy, but would not
have received il had not the men in the sa-
loon interfered in time to save his life.
There are several stories told as the rea-
son why Pettingill came to Montana and
adopted the wild life he is leading, and
the most generally accepted one
is that during the war he was
captain in a company of Mis-
souri, volunteer infantry; that he had a
quarrel with a fellow officer. and was chal-
lenged to fight a duel He accepted and
killed his challenger, and then deserted the
army and escaped up along the Missouri
river making the whole distance on foot
and landing in Montana when this country
was still an almost unknown territory.

bered that this decrease in the death rate

The Rain Too Late !

While our recent generous down.
pour OF rains are pronounced "too
late" for certain purposes, at least by
many who have never been heard to
thank God for the bounties of nature,
they were certainly in good time and
high time, and for more important
purposes than those deplored by the
ungrateful. They were not too late
for something to drink for man and
beast not too late for growing corn
and buckwheat ; not too late for fall
pasturage for animals that would
otherwise have had to be fed from
the farmers store for winter use not
too late to set dormant machinery in
motion all over the United States,
whether running by steam or water
power not too late 10 quench fires
the like of which our country has
never before suffered--at least not
within the memory OF the writer not
too late to quench the fires in burning
mines in the bowels of the earth,
which rendered it impossible for man
to utilize them ; not too late to save
at least SO per cent. of the fruit OF
every orchard from Maine to Cali
fornia ; and yet, alas, we must admit,
too late to exact prayer of grateful
ness from far too many who will par
take of the bounties of nature whole
life time without either saying grace
over meals or otherwise audibly ex-
pressing word of thanks to the God
of nature. "Too late" alas, yes "too
late," we fear will be the bitter words
that fall upon the ears of the migrate
full during the promised rain of fire
unquenchable hereafter,

rated with palms and flowers, and c.
P. Elwells orchestra of ten pieces
discoursed sweet music from 7.3o to

original conception in the way of a
gentleman's dressing room as he is
about to start on journey. On the
table are his hat, cane and umbrella,
while his overcoat, coat and vest are
lying carelessly around, and his satchel
stands in one corner containing his
underwear, gloves, ties, &c. Mr..
Gliding received many letters from
persons whom he had invited to attend
the opening, and also number oi
handsome presents from wholesale
houses with whom he deals.
