EtrenuOus Efforts Being Made BY Both
Republican and Democratic
Congressman.
DEMOCRATS WANT TO STAY
While the Republicans Are Equally
Anxious to Gust Them--WOrk of
Congressional Committees.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 21.-With the
close Of congress. the managers Of the
congressional campaign committees are
preparing for the fall campaign with
much energy. Senator Faulkner, at the
head OF the Democratic committee, Is
directing his efforts toward holding =
Democratic majority i'm the house OF
representatives. Extensive headquar.
tiers are in operation, with the executive
work in charge OF Secretary Lawrence
Gardner.
The work thus far has been in prepar-
ing fun statistics of districts, writing
the campaign book, and in circulating
documents. The campaign book ID
about half completed. 1t will be . vol
ume Of about 800 pages, showing the
work Of congress aud the reforms
claimed to have been made In the de-
partmental service. It viii be fur
nished TO speakers as q text books for eff
forts on the stump. The statistics gath
cred are the most elaborate over taken
by the committee. They show not only
the votes by counties for the last four
congressional elections, but in close dis
tricts the figures are carried out 60
townships, wards and even precincts.
In addition TO the numerical vote, q
system Of percentages has been adopted
by which the percentage Of gain
sary to success, or loss threatening de-
feat can be exactly determined.
Campaign speakers win not be sent
out by the committee, as each oon-
gressional nominee will be left TO secure
his own speakers. It Il expected, how
ever. If q weak spot is developed, where
speakers are few, the national commit
tee win undertake to supply the orators.
On tine Republican Side.
The Republican congressional cam.
paign committee, in the absence Of Sec
Rotary Olds, is in charge Of Assistant
Secretary Thomas b. Mckee. BY the
decision of the Republican national
committee the congressional campaign
liz left entirely In the hands of the con-
gressional committee, Chairman Man
ley acting i'm an advisory capacity. The
headquarters force Is just now engaged
in getting together the campaign text
book, which Captain Mckee expects TO
have issued by Sept. |.
The committee has had it's headquar-
tiers open continuously from Nov. 1
last. and since that time has circulated
ZOO, 900 pieces of campaign literature.
This work viii be pushed with even
greater diligence from this time for
ward.
A complete canvass has been made OF
every congressional district in the a
try, and the work to be done mapped
out and systematized. In states where
. state campaign Is ON the work win be
left In ths hands OF the state committee
entirely. Where there Ii no state cam
paign, the congressional district organ
i2ation win be c~o-operated with strictly.
There win be no speakers bureau &C
the committee headquarters, as con-
gressmen and candidates are found to
prefer arranging for speakers them
selves. Every assistance possible in se-
curing speakers viii, however, be rem
dered where it In asked for.

GENERAL GEORGE A. SHERIDAN.
A Brief Account Of an Interesting
and Eventful Public Life.

II was General George Sheridan's
first appearance before Provi-
dence audience Wednesday night. He
took the platform as stranger
to those in the State and
instead, of introducing himself made the
statement that his listeners had no curl
osity whatever as to where and when he
was born, what he had done since hen ana
what he intended TO do next. After his
40 minute address the General was
ranked with the favorite speakers and IL
he had condescended to talk about him
self then 1000 people would have willingly
listened. Yesterday at the Republican
headquarters he supplied this biographical
feature in an altogether casual sort OF
way and it was learned that General Sher-
idan is by birth, at least, New Eng
lander. He was born in Millbury, Massa-
chusetts, in 1S40, but went to
Chicago before he was 20, in time TO enlist
for the war from that place. The Chicago
Board of Trade formed three regiments
and a battery and turned them over TO the
Government. General Sheridan went out
as a captain in one of these regiments and
saw constant service up to the battle OF
Chickamauga, September 10, 1868, when
he was severely wounded.
In 1866 he went to Louisiana where he
was active in the work of reconstruction
and was chosen Adjutant General of the
State. That election he gives as the rea-
son for his present title. Now he is a New
Yorker and very active one in politics,
widely known as "A stump speaker. He
was warm personal friend OF Hon. James
q. Blaine, and as that statesman's guest
spent many campaigns in the State of
Maine.
There is no puzzle to say why General
Sheridan is a popular speaker. In his ad-
dress there is combination of wit and
elouuence that makes his listeners forget
to look at their watches. He has a
peculiar voice that is comical in itself,
when the words are humorous, and melo-
dious when the language becomes poetic
as it certainly was Wednesday evening
when Sheridan was describing the land
OF Ireland and its lost opportunities.

THE FIRE A MYSTERY.
Particulars Concerning the Destruction
of the Home OF Sirs. A. l.. Saunders

of the Home OF Mrs. A. l.. Saunders
The burning of the country residence OF
Mrs. A. l.. Saunders of this city at Bridge
ton, Me, TO which the NEWS referred 10
the other day, destroyed the most beauti-
full buildings at that delightful country
place.
These buildings were erected about four
years ago at cost OF about thirty
thousand dollars.
The evening OF the fire a local dramatic
company, that recently brought out the
opera "The Little Tycoon" were passing
the evening with Mrs. Saunders, to-
gether with few other invited guests.
The party broke up about 2 o'clock ana
Mrs. Saunders had her own team har-
messed and brought the widow OF the late
Rev. Henry Bernard Carpenter TO the
village. When she returned her build
ings were i'm ashes. Some near
neighDors had been able TO get into the
stable and release the horses, but nothing
else was saved. The loss cannot be less
than $4,000. The cause of the fire is a
mystery. Fires had been burning in
open CRATES in several rooms during the
eveng. but these were supposed TO be all
safe when the house was left. There was
comparatively small insurance on the
buildings.
