PALMER's CAMPAIGN SPEECHES.
why Doesn't the Republican State Com
mittee Pay Him for Themf

Benjamin F. Palmer, a colored orator who
has been making speeches In Kings county for
the Republican party. and who declares that a
large part of the party's plurality In that county
was due to his efforts, went into Republican
headquarters In the Fifth Avenue Hotel on
Friday last and demanded $50 of Secretary
Kenyon. Palmer said he was engaged by the
State COMMITTEES to make speeches at $40 per
speech. He made eight oratorical efforts and
was paid for the first three.
It Is impossible TO learn Just what the nature
NJ the conversation between Mr.. Kenyon and
Palmer was. but there suddenly doomed up In
front Of the Brooklynite the massive form OF
George F.. smith, the colored man who acts as
messenger at Republican headquarters. Now
Palmer knew Smith. and Smith knew Palmer,
because, In 1902. the latter tried to obtain the
job of janitor OF the Senate building at Albany.
which Smith then held, and is still the incum-
bent. Who struck the first blow 10 another
mystery, as each man says the other did. but a

The contest for the speakership Of the Assem-

terest heretofore had centred In Speaker
Malby and his canvass. Last night Mr.. Malby's
headquarters were deserted, and the tall form
of Assemblyman Hamilton Fish of Putnam.
which was conspicuous In the main corridor Of
tho hotel. seemed to attract all the politicians In
sight. Mr.. Fish seemed very happy and hopeful.
One reason for this change was that Lou Payn
had come down from his country home In Co
lumbia county and announced that he was for
Fish. On hearing that Mr.. Payn had come out
for Fish. many Of the politicians said that Fish
was as good as elected. Mr.. Payn himself said:
II am for Fish for Speaker; and ! think he is

Great Danger OF weak Eyes Leading to
Totsi Blindness Some Facts About the
Eyes witch Many People DO Not Know.
Nothing In this world Is 80 important as our

day, straining and abusing them, little thinking
Of the fearful danger they incur Of becoming
blind. For weak eyes may easily become to-
tally blind.
Hard work, tired nerves, bad blood, and run
down systems weaken the eyes. Following Is
the most wonderful cure OF blindness on record.

at first that the girl was dead. Both bodies Felt
cold, tho pupils. of the eyes were dilated, and the
children. breathed heavily. The limbs were
rigid. Mrs. Riley carried the children to the
rooms Of Mrs. Martin Shaughnessy, who lives
on the top floor OF Mrs. Hynes's house. Mustard

dren partly revived. Joseph cried, but he never
fully regained his senses. Mory remained un-
conscious, although she moaned at times.
Mrs. Hynes In the mean time. II Is said. lay in
a drunken slumber on her bed. She did not
awake until late In the day. At . o'clock in the
evening the girl died. A change for the worse
