McKane Sentenced,

III the Brooklyn, n. Y, court on
Monday of this week, John Y Nc
Kane, the Gravesend Democratic boss
was sentenced to six years imprison-
ment in the State prison at Sing Sing
The jury which found him guilty
had recommended mercy, and it was
supposed by some that Judge Bartlett
would be lenient.
After counsel for McKane had made
long plea for mercy, Clerk Byrne
asked him the usual question; Have
you anything to say why sentence
should not be passed ?" McKane
arose, seized the railing with his left
hand, and in trembling voice, said:
81 don know whether l have any
thing to say, much. lam not guilty
l never did anything wrong in my
life. had nothing to do last election
with the inspectors. | never a lvised
them at all, much less to do anything
wrong. l am not guilty. l never
did anything wrong in all my life. "
His voice grew weaker as he spoke
the last words. He hesitated and
then turned toward his chair. Hold
on minute" said Clerk Byrne.
"McKane, you have not yet heard
your sentence.
McKane turned back again, caught
the railing with his left hand and put
his right into his pocket Then, with
lifted head and closed eyes, he listen
ed.
The voice of Justice Bartlett broke
the silence
II am not at liberty" he said in a
tone of intensity ito disregard the
recommendation of the jury for mercy.
Nevertheless, in passing sentence, |
cannot overlook the great gravity of
the crime of which this dcfendent has
been convicted. The fact that he dis
o5eyed the laws is the more a matter
Of moment for the reason that he is an
Intelligent man who exercised wide
authority, and who knew what the
aw was This aggravates the offense.
The sentence should not be too light,
est 1t should not be proper punish
ment; and on the other hand it should
not be so severe as to excite sympa-
thy. The sentence of the court is that
you be confined in the State prison at
Sing Sing for the term of six years.
As Justice Bartlett spoke, the pris-
oner's face had gradually grown whit
er, and as the words six years" fell
III his ears his counteuance turned
pallid. He started to go to bis chair,
with his eyes still closed. As he felt
his way along like man stricken
blind by the severity of the sentence,
Sheriff Buttling took him by the arm
and helped him into a seat.

Galusha A Grow will go to Wash

Pennsylvania backed by the unprece-

The people of Pennsylvania on
Tuesday indicated their opposition to
Clevelandism and the removal of pro.

uncertain manner. Strongholds OF
Democracy were shaken and counties
which hitherto have always been

District the Democrats were complete

1t is said that McKane, about the
time the law was fastening its tolls
about him, made up his mind to re
tire from politics and lead an honest
life. He had for years been wearing
the livery of the church while serving
the devil, and when caught, when
brought face with his wickedness,
when the penetentiary stared at him,
it was but natural that he should
plead the baby act Although a Sun
day school superintendent, it is said
he was not member of the church.
which stands out as his one redeem
ing trait. 1t is possible that, barring
his political rascality, he was model
moral man, and as such his character
is best understood.

Another Surprise,

of sisters and brethren of the d. of r.

home of Mrs. John Z, Oliver 1t was
A very enjoyable occasion. They in

The music as rendered by sister
Mary Gaver was highly entertaining,
accompanied as it was by the vocal
music of many sisters, harmon
iously blending with the baritone
voices of the young brethren particu-
larly. Altogether it was highly en-
tertaining. The most exciting fea-
ture of the plays was the presentation
of love box to one of the sisters the
contents Of which appeared very sig
nificant when literally exemplified BY
the young brother holding the prize,
the rendering of which created whole
bushel of fun, which was suddenly in
terrupted by the announcement that
there was something more substantial

dining room but ii was soon discover
ed that they could not be Accommodated
except by sections Of ten which was
readily agreed upon. After the third
section was fully supplied and satisf-
ed, there was still an abundance re-
naming, which Fact furnished evil
dence that our hostess had needed the
admonition of your correspondent, and
made ample provision for any emmer-
gency. We would simply renew our
warning to others to be also ready, for
in such time as we think not, the
sisters may manifest their good will
by walking in.
