Senator PETER, the oPopulist leader,

With his wife the Kansas senator was

ing along Ii Of tho principal, business
thoroughfares Of Washington his eagle
eye detected two urchins i'll front of q

actions caused him to direct the driver
to slacken tho pace of tho horse. He was
not mistaken. When the young rogues
thought the coast was clear, they grabbed

TO DEATH.
A Horse Trails a Virginia Girl Nearly Two
Miles,


Miss Jennie Crow. living at Rock
wood, w. Va, met with. u horrible 40
oident recently which will result in her
death. She is u handsome young woman
OF % years, and a great ~favorite in the
city, where her father is II prominent
business man. A few evenings ago with
several companions, young ladies ind
gentlemon, she went horseback riding
along tho pike up tho river bank known
locally as tho Riverside, drive.
Miss Crow was u splendid horsewom-
IN, and with her escort was leading tho
party. The horse che was riding was
spirited, but good tempered and thor
oughly acquainted with it's rider. Sud
denly, however, the animal SHE'D and
Miss Crow slipped from the saddle. Her
foot was firmly set in tho stirrup, how
ever, and though she nude a desperate
effort to diseDgage it as she fell, she was
unsuccessful. Tho animal becoming
more frightened by her fall started to
run ut ~breakneck speed, and though Miss
Crows escort and companions drove to
the full speed of their horses they could
not overtake tho flying runaway until
he had noarly reached town, n distance
OF two miles from the point where Miss
Crow had fallen from her saddle.
The poor girl had been dragged over
tho stony pike all that distance. Her
clothing was almost torn from her body,
and her hoad, breast, shoulders and
arms were u solid mass of bruises, cuts
and nbrasions. Tho flesh and hair had
nearly all been torn from one side of her
face and head, and she presented II most
horrible appearance. She was uncon-
scious and no hopes are entertained for
her recovery.

REED 10 UPSET RULES.
Claims That the Speaker OF the Next House
VIII Cast Precedent Aside.

Claama That the Speaker OF the Next House
VIII CAST Precedent Aside.
Certain Republican leaders claim to
have received Inside information to the
effect that when once in the speakers
chair Of the next congress Mr.. Reed
will institute q general shaking up of
the committees to such an extent rs to
destroy all preoedents.
According to tradition Of tho house Of
representatives. the member Of longest
continuous service on n committee bo-
comes its chairman when his party
comes into power.
There is a strong intimation that A.
J. Hopkins Of Aurora, Ills, is to get
tho craftsmanship of the ways and
means. The settlement Of tho question
whether s. e. Payne Of New York or
Hopkins is to be the leader Of the next
house will depend upon tho physical
condition OF Robert Hit Of Mount Nor
ris, Ills. II he il strong enough to as
sumo control Of the foreign affairs COM
mittee, he will have it. With reference
TO the appropriations committee David
Henderson Of Dubuque, Ia, is the rank
ing member OF the committee SO far rs
continuous service is concerned. Uncle
Joseph Cannon, however, claims the
place ON tho ground that his service,
while unfortunately broken in Oh by the
accident of failing of election ono term,
is much longer than Henderson's. 1t is
improbable that Illinois will get moro
than II Of tho three important chair
manships, but 1t is certain to have CON
troll of one of them. All three Of the
men named for these important posts in
the new Republican housekeeping,
Cannon and Hitt-are also being can
vassed us possible governors of Illinois
to succeed Altgeld.
Republican leaders seem to believe
that u plan will DO formulated to pre-
sent the president with "a double barrol-
ed bill involving an additional tax on
beer and o, tariff duty Oh some impor-
tant articis like wool now OIL the free
list. The Treasury needs tho revenue
from boeb and the plan which seems to
have beea agreed upon is to force Mr..
Cleveland to swallow n patch on the
tariff bill at the same time ne gets the
desired increase in revenue. Chicago

The puelcr In Journalism.

A Cincinnati writer has sent q blood

por because tho editor took blue pencil

go into type i'll exactly the same phrase

nrea that had been furnished by the
writer.
From tho days Of the first newspaper
down to this day of SO many thousands
of daily papers there have beer men and
women outside of the profession of jour
nalism who have steadily and bitterly
held to the opinion that editors of news
papers didn't know how to run them.
But these dissatisfied ones have comfort
ed themselves with simply saying that
the editors were fools.
The Cincinnati maj evidently holds
to tho same opinion, and he is deter
mined apparently to bring about u re-
form even if he has to shed blood to do
it. If he succeeds i'll shooting the editor
or razooing him with Il rapier, we fear
that there will be n raid made Oh news
