BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Miss Nora Mahaney of Bank street is spending two weeks vacation at Savin Rock.

 Miss Kittie Crowley of Ansonia is the guest of her cousin. MissI Mamie Crowley of Bank street
 A mock marriage was performed be- tween young couple living in this section last night. which is likely to end in a breach of promise suit. The ceremony was performed in presence of several wit nesses and when the party was about to disperse the young man wanted the lady to accompany him home. She refused the crowd started 10 jbe him over the affair. when he became angry and threatened to put the case into the hands of an attorney. They all thought he was fooling but when he called on the lady this morning and gave her until tonight 10 consider the matter things took a different turn and now the girl who went through the cere- money as we'll as the witnesses are begin ming to realize the fact that their little joke is likely to cost them more notoIiety than they bargained for.
 The members of the St Thomas cadets base ball club are pleased to hear of the success which attended the St Joseph's club on the occasion of their visit to Litchtied and hope they will soon become sufficiently proficient in the game to be able to cross bats with one of the home teams. The cadets think the St Joseph's ought to pay their dehts before they begin to talk about rushing base ball. It is al legged that the St Joseph's owe the cadets half the gate receipts since the game be- tween those two clubs on July 6, when it was agreed that each club should receive half the gate receipts. We could not get a cent from that crowd" said one of the cadets this morning, and now because they happened to win game from a few farmers in Litchtield they have lost their heads and seem to lose sight of the fact that there is a club here in their own town that can thrash them for money any day in the week,
 The young ladies of this part of tho town are making great preparations to attend the reception and concert to be held ill D. J. Mahaney's hew store to mor- 'ow night. The tiremen'S ball could not create more talk than this affair and what seems to bother the girls most is who will lead the march. Some say Mir Mahauey will be the man while others seem to think that MT Weiner will act ill that position. All the girls want MT Weiher to lead the march, so that one of them will have an opportunity to act as his partner. If MT Mahaney should do the hcnors he would be accompanied by one of his own family. There is good deal of speculation going on among the gossps as to whether it will be one of Kelly's, Lawlor's or Smith clerks who will walk around with MT Weiner in case he leads the march. MT Mahaney went among his neighbors to- day and invited all to be present. He also extends a cordial invitation to representa- tives of the press.

NEGRO LYNCHED IN OHIO
He Had Just Murdered a Man
 Without Provocation.
MOB DID ITS WORK DEMOLISHED.
The Negro Is Reported to Have Been Mem tally Unsound. While the Man He Killed Was Highly Respected, Eighty Years of Age and Wealthy.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 22.--At New Rich mond, O., p miles up the Ohio river from Cincinnati, yesterday. afternoon a mob took Noah Anderson, colored, from jail and hanged him for the murder of Frank lin Fridman, nearly so years old and pres ident of tho First National bank of that place.
 Mir. Fridman was among the wcalthiest men in Clermont county. He owned a number of farms and lived at Clermont- vile, about two miles from New Rich mond. He was driving into New Rich mond shortly after noon, when he stopped at one of his houses. Hitching his horse at the door yard, he went into an adioin- ing field, where he was suddenly attacked by Noah Anderson, q muscular negro, who had no weapon but his hands. With these he quickly bore the aged banker to the earth and then cl1tching his throat with the power of demon he literally chokad his victim to death. When satis- fled that the man was dead, Anderson fled Soon the prostrate man was borne to the house and found to be past all help.
 He was already dead. The news of the shocking crime travelled swiftly, for every body knew Mir. Fridman It was not long until Anderson was captured and taken to the New Richmond jail, wherc great crowd quickly gathered. Anderson made no attempt to conceal his crime He gloat- ingly told all the details and said he had given the old man what he deserved.
 Said to Have Been Metnally UnsOund.
 It is said that Anderson was not right in his mind, and that one of his hallucina- tions was that Fridman had deprived him of a large sum of money. The truth is the two men had had no dealings together, as Anderson camc to New Richmond on a shanty boat only few months ago and claimed to be a papcrhanger.
 The crowd about tho jail soon became wildly excited. AS the ncgro's confession became known cries of Lynch himu' Hang the coward" arose. A rope was brought, and the end seemed near. Prom inent citizens addressed tho mob, implor- ing moderation. Anderson was in his cell on his knees crying for mercy. The mar shal, when a momcntary lull came, at tempted to take Anderson to q moro se- cure jail at Batavia, the county seat No sooner did the man appear outside the jail than the frenZicd mob rushed at the marshal, and sciZing the prisoner bore him quickly to the nearest tree, and in a brief time he was dead. There was no at tempt at concealmcnt. Every person pres Cnt and engaged in the mob knew all the others. It was simply an act of frenzy under most nggraVating circumstances. The murdered man was endCarCd to every citizen, and his taking off was so sudden that his friends and neighborS seemed to have lost their reason

again confronts his old opponent-Mc- Kinlcy. In cooperating with Senator Bricc for a Democratic legislature OK Gov crnor Campbell is also again confronting his other old opponent-Forakcr. There is so little difference between the Repub- lican and Democratic platforms on silver that the currency question is now gener- ally believed to bo disposed of in Ohio, but tho tariff will be kept prominent, as tho parties differ widely on that issue. Ex-Governor Campbell, with Senator Brice and others, is arranging for begin ming at once an aggressive campaign.
 Following is the full ticket
 Governor, James E. Campbell, Butler county; lieutenant governor, John B. PeaSlcc, Hamilton county; state auditor, James W. Knott, Richland county; state treasurer, William Sholler, Gallia county; supreme judge, William T. Mooney, Au- glaise county; attorney general, George A. Fairbanks, Franklin county; member board of public works, Harry B. Keefer, TuscarawaS county; clerk of supreme court, J. w. Cruickshank, Miami county.
 The financial plank of the national Democratic platform of 1892 was reaffirm- cd by the convention. Cleveland and Bricc wcro indorscd and tho Republican party, statc and national, was censured.
 Previous to his election as governor in 1889 Campbell had been three times elect ed to congress in Republican district, and is recognized as the best campainger of his party ill Ohio His running mate for lieutenant governor, John B. Peaslee, was for years superintendent of the Gin cinnati schools, and last week retired as clerk of the court of Hamilton county. MT. Peaslec is also a fine campaign speak CT. Professor Knott, the candidate for auditor of state, is college man, and the nominee for supreme judge is now on the common pleas bench. Mir. Fairbanks, for attorney general, is friend of Thurman at Columbus. His name was presented by Congressman Outhwaite.

ANAGGRESSIVE CANVASS
Campbelrs Nomination Means a
 Warm Fight Tn Ohio.
HE WAS CHOSEN AGAINST HIS WILL
The Silver Men Were Outnumbered at All Points, and the Financial Plank Is the Same as That of the National Democratic Convention of 1892.


 SPRINGFIELD, O., Aug. 22.-The Demo- cratic state convention made all its nomi- nations without opposition. The conven- tion was in session from 10:20 until 2:4o, and the nominations were completed in half hour after ex.Governor Campbell had been drafted for the standard bearer. The ballots were all on the minority report on credentials and resolutions, and the tiINe was thus consumed in the contests be- tween the gold and the silver men.
 It developed that thero were gro free silver delegates. It was fighting minori- ty, but it did not carry the fight further than on the platform. The nominee for member of the board of public works is said to be the only free silver man on the state ticket, although the silver lines were not drawn on the candidates.
 There was considerable enthusiasm over the nomination of Campbell. His nomi- nation means an aggressive campaign in Ohio, where Mckinley is now recognized as n candidate for president and Foraker for senator, the fate of both depending largely upon the pending contest between Campbell and Bushnell for governor. It is generally understood that ex-Governor Campbell was induced to make the race by promises of support for the presidential nomination in the event of his success next November, in which contingency ho

THE NEW,JERSEY CAMPAIGN.

Among the various State campaigns OF this
year scarcely any is Of more genuine interest
than that which has already informally begun
in NewJcrsey. There Is no Presidential candi-
date TO be developed. or to be especially helped.
Nor will a Republican victory there be fur
therance Of the ambitious schemes Of any one
politician or set Of politicians. The gentleman
ernor Of New,Jersey, and nothing more Ger
tanly he will not regard that office as merely a
stepping-stone 10 the White House The men
who are elected 10 the Legislature will have only
the interests Of the State to serve. There Is no
Senator to be chosen, nor other game of National
politics TO be played On the Democratic side
the case Is different There Ring and Gang arc
striving for dear existence" They have In the
last two years been badly stricken A third
defeat this year would about finish their foul
career, and against 1t they are going 10 make the
fight Of their lives. The contest Is therefore
really one Of the people and the peoples interests
against the political bosses and their selfish
greed There can scarcely be any better fitted
TO command the sympathy Of all good citizens.
The result ought not 10 be in doubt. The Re-
publicans ought TO win. This Is true on general
political principles. Republicans are winning
pretty much everywhere In these years New
Jersey should be no exception to the rule. That
intelligent and progressive State should place
Itself in line with New-York and Ohio; yes, and
We trust. with Maryland and even Kentucky. 1t
