SEWELL FOR SENATOR
Chosen by New Jersey Republicans
to Succeed Mcpherson.
HIGGINS NAMED IN DELAWARE.

The Addioks Men, However, Refuse to Join
the Higgins Adherents in Caucus, and
the Battle win be Fought on the Floor
of the House.
TRENTON, Jan. 15-The joint caucus of
the Republican senators and members of
the New Jersey legislature last night, after
q two hour session, placed General Will
lam j. Sewell in nomination for the Uni
ted States senate, to succeed John r. Nc
Phcrson. General Sewells nomination
was decided upon by vote of So out of 70.
The opposition to the general was some
what bitter on the part of few, but did
not materialize very extensively in the
matter of votes
Senator Bradley refused to go into the
caucus at all, and after the caucus had
been in session about half an hour Assem-
blyman Olcott, who has been leading in
the fight for Franklin Murphy, and As
semblymen Ei5ele, Drake and Zabrisl1ie
left the assembly chamber, where the eau
Gus was being held. They left because Of
the defeat of a resolution to allow each
member to vote in the joint session re
gardloss of the caucus. They were fol
lowed shortly afterwards by Assemblyman
Voorhees,, of Bergen county
After these gentlemen had left the eau
Gus a motion TO adjourn was defeated,
with only two votes in it's favor, and then
the members got down to the business of
making the nomination. Senator Voor
hees was in the chair, and Leader Storrs,
of the assembly, acted as temporary chair
man. General Sewell's name was pre-
sented by Senator Rogers, of Camden, and
was seconded by Senators Stokes, Skirm
Hoffman. Senator Ketcham presented
the name of Franklin Murphy. With the
six absentees the number represented in
the caucus was sixty-four. OF these all
but eight voted for -Sewell when the ballot
was taken. The eight were Senator
Ketcham, Assemblymen Benedict, Bul-
@. A. Schober and Mock.
Immediately upon the announcement OF
the result there was wild cheering in the
| state house corridors, which were crowded
with the friends of General Sewell includ
| ing the $50 members of the William j
| Sewell club, of Camden, which had come
| to Trenton with two bands of music, on 8
special train. General Sewell, who had
been awaiting the news of the result al
the Trenton House, was rendered a sere
made and made a speech from the balcony
of the hotel. Senator Bradley says he will
| vote for franklin Murphy in the join
meeting next week. Mr.. Eisele also say'
he will vote for Murphy, unless requested
| by the latternot to do so. There are only
eleven Democrats in both houses.

.BRooKLYNs TROLLEY STRIKE


Six Thousand Zen out and Traffic Wholly
Suspended.
BROOKLYN, Jan 15-Nearly six thou
sand mon, including motormcn, con
ductors, electricians and others employed
on the various trolley railroads in this city
are on strike. 1t is the first strike the
trolley system has experienced, and is a
most thorough and complete one. The
only road not tied up is the Brooklyn and
Coney Island, better known as the JAY
and Smith street line. President Henry
w. Slocum had the mems demand under
consideration, and when the committee of
the district assembly called on him the
strike, as far as concerned his road, was
amicably settled. An agreement was
signed and now that road is the only one
running in full force.
During the day Mr. Lewis, president of
the Brooklyn Heights Railroad company,
made a public statement in which he said
the tie up was without any just cause.
He also notified the mayor, police commits
soner, sheriff and fire commissioner of the
strike and asked for police protection. He
sent a communication to the railroad com
missioners at Albany and posted notices
of warning at all the car houses notifying
strikers TO keep away. There were also
warnings TO keep the peace, but i'm spite OF
these numerous cases of interference oc-
CURED. There was some delay i'm trans
portaJion of the mails, but the mail cars
were guarded by policemen.
AT the different power houses through
out the city everything was quiet. A short
distance from each one the strikers kept
their pickets on duty. The railroad depots
were deserted but pickets kept watch
| there also. 1t is expected that the com
panies will bring men from other cities &c
| take the strikers places.
The motormen and conductors will
they claim, invoke the law against the
companies. District Attorney Ridgeway
has promised, they say, to bring the mat
ter of violating the ten hour law before
the grand jury. The men declare they are
: prepared to give testimony that will prove
the guilt of the companies.

GRATITUDE OF A SIOUX soUAw.
Anxiety While Dying of an Indian Woman
to Fulfill Her Promise.


to Fulfill Her Promise.
A woman on the West Side whose early
predictions created a prejudice against
Indians is now "a friend Of the deoaying
race. 1t came about in a pretty way, and
the incident has also a sorrowful tinge. A
Sioux Indian and his squaw, whom the
woman's husband had known out west
were returning from Europe, where they
had been as attaches of Buffalo Bill Wild
West. When they came to Chicago they
stopped over day and hunted up the
palefaee whom they had known out west.
He hired a carriage and took them out to
his home, which surprised his wife not
little, and there they were entertained,
The squaw spoke no language but her own.
Her man knew enough English to make
himself understood Both were in their
visiting colors. They didn't like the blue
points and oysters, but when the roast
| beef (wo-haw) was brought on the eyes Of
the sduaw bulged out, and she olapped her
hands She deyoured it slice by slice and
| in a manner calculated to shock the wife
of the paleface.
After dinner the squaw sang for the
paleface woman and her papooses to show
gratitude. Then through her man, she
had the palefaoe woman take off her shoes
and stand on a sheet of paper. The squaw
took bit of pencil and drew the shape of
the feet. The squaw S man Informed the
paleface woman that she would make and
send her a pair of split bead moccasins
from the tepee as soon as they could be
made. The Indians went away that night,
westward bound, and months passed by,
! The West Side wife playfully chlded her
husband about his lavish entertainment OF
( the reds and their mock gratitude he
I said Wait" In a year from the time OF
the visit a package was delivered to the
! house 1t was opened, and there were the
/ split bead molcasins made by the squaw.
| There also was the information that she
7 had died about the time the moocasins
were completed
In crude sort of way, but all the more
tender on account of its simplicity, the
Indian explained that his squaw would
have sent the moccasins sooner, but she
had been sick, and her work had been de-
layed, and that she was afraid she would
not live to keep her word to the palefaoe
woman who Had entertained her with such
| good .wo-haw. ,s.. b.
| There were some tender words spoken
! in tho home Of the West Side paleface thai
night, and even now, when the wife OF tht
palefaoe tells the incident, there is slgh'
formulation in the lips and moisture
. about the eyes.--Chioago Times.

Twenty Drowned in a Nrine.

LONDON, Jan. 15-An accident occurred
at the Bag Lake colliery at Audley, North

were at work in the colliery at noon, when
there was a sudden rush of water from the
old workings. By 3 o'clock $50 of them had
been rescued. OF the eighty who were be-
low it was thought that twenty were in
the lower workings when the mine was
flooded and that they had been drowned.

tender, grabbing small bottle in the
rear. He pours little into glass,
then he grabs another bottle and
pours something else on top of it and
squirts in a jet of bitters and a jet of
absinthe, and s,irs them up in glass
of ice and strains the concoctlou off
into a cocktail glass.
Meanwhile the customer pays little
or no attention TO this, but promptly
swallows it when it is ready. He
doesn't know what it is or whether it
is injurious or beneficial to him. But
the powerful stimulating quality of
the mixture probably "sets him up"
in a few minutes. In the middle of
his conversation he is conscious OF
this, and when the next round is
ordered he promptly says he will take
another of the same sort.
THAT stuff seems TO make me come
around all right" he remarks. what
do you call it -
"Oh, I don't know" responds the
bartender with a smile. "1t's pick
me up we're on to-" And he straight
way prepares another. He knows it
is not beverage but his customer
asks for it, and the responsibility is at
once shifted. He will mix half-a-
dozen of them and see them absorbed
with that calm indifference which is
the habit of his profession. 1t is the
other fellows stomach and brain and
nervous organization.

GLASS EYEs.-It is fallacy to sup
pose that people who wear cork legs
and glass eyes are Indifferent to their
personal appearance. They are often
vainer than ordinary individuals.
A rich man, for instance, who is
obliged to wear an artificial eye will
wear three different eyes every day
an eye for morning, when the pupil is
not very large; an eye for noon, when
the pupil is smaller; an eye for even
ing, when the pupil has extended to
its full size.
A London eye-maker, who gave
this information, said he made about
an equal proportion of glass eyes for
men and women. Some people keep
quite stock in their possession; in
fact, no less than - eyes have been
made by my informant within three
years. His son had got one made from
measurement, and that eye fitted so
perfectly that the old gentleman, in
an outburst of gratitude, wrote of for
II other eyes.

Work on the Tobacco Factory-Convict
Force on the College Reduced-Acci-

Correspondence Of the Yorkvllle Enquirer.
Rock HILL, May 22.-The building
for the tobacco factory is nearing COM
pletion, the workmen being engaged
just now in putting on the roof. Mr..
Taylor, the president of the company,
will remove from Raleigh to Rock
Hill, with his family, early next mouth,
and the work Of putting in the ma
chinery is soon TO begin. We are
growing anxious to see work begun on
some of the projected cotton factories,
but suppose it takes time to get all
preiminaries satisfactorily arranged
for successfully inauguratiug all such
enterprises.
Rev. Oliver Jones and family are
now occupying the Memorial mause,
and Mr.. Jones entered upon his work
regularly last Sunday, preaching at
White Memorial chapel in the morning,
and at Hopewell in the afternoon.
Colonel Neal recently withdrew 20
convicts from the force at work on the
Industrial college here, the need for
hands to engage in the farm work
conducted by the State at other points,
being very pressing just now. This
leaves Supt. Stewart with q compare
lively small force; but he has the
work well in hand and expects to
have everything in readiness for turn
ing over the building to the trustees in
the required time. 1t is expected, of
course, that many laborers will be
sent by Colonel Neal to this point
when the work on the firms is better
advanced.

have just heard of an accident that
befell Contractor Adams today, while
experimenting the work on the tobac-
co factory. 1t seems that he was
walking rapidly across the sleepers on
one of the stories, when he slipped and
fell, catching, however, before falling
to the floor below. He was taken
home and medical attendance sum-
moned, as he seemed to be suffering
much pain. No bones were broken
and it is hoped that no serious internal
injuries have been sustained.

ACCOMPLISHED MoNKEYs.-It is said
that the apes of Siam are very popular
among the Samese merchants as cash
iers in their counting houses. An
enormous amount of base coins is
known to be in circulation in Siam,
and it is very difficult to detect the
counterfeit money. No human being
can discriminate between the good and
bad coin with as much accuracy as
these apes, and no trained banker can
compete with them in their peculiar
speciality.
In pursuing his employment, the
ape cashier meditatively puts each coin
presented to him in his mouth and
tests it gravely. From two to five
seconds is sufficient time for him to
make his decision as to its merits. If
the coin is good, he carefully puts it
into the proper receptacle; if base, it
is violently thrown to the floor, while
Mr.. Monkey makes his displeasure
known by his angry chatter.
