Morrill, has Not Been to See Thomas Reed
at All.

at ALI
Topeka, Kan, Aug 20.-The Roches-
ter, On. Y) Union and Advertiser has
the following article in reference to
a publication made by a Topeka paper.
which stated that Governor Morrill,
had gone east to work up vice-presi-
Dental boom:
Some of the people of Kansas believe
that Governor Morrill,, of their state,
who is at present a guest of Hon.
Charles 5. Baker, wants to be vice
president of the United States. \ des-
patch from Topeka has the following
10 say of the matter:
"A local paper prints story to the
effect that the purpose of Governor
Norris trip east is to start boom
for himself for the Republican nomina-
ton for the vice president.
Though it is not generally known"
the paper says, Governor Morrill, is
now at the summer residence of Thorn
as 3. Reed, who expects to be given
first place on the national ticket. A
deal is to be made which Will unite
the west and the east and make Thorn
as b. Reed the presidential nominee.
1t is well known that the governor has
been q fast friend of the Maine con-
gresham, and that he has always fav-
ored his nomination for president"
1t is evident that either the governor
was very quiet about his trip east
while at home, or else the Topeka pa
per is not up with the news. 1t is pos
sible that Governor Morrill, intends to
visit Mr.. Reed on the rock bound coast
of the Pine Tree state, but he has not
done it yet. He is at Niagara Falls to-
day with the Hon. Mr. Baker. If he
has a bee in his bonnet which huns of
office he has not yet allowed the en-
trancing music to interfere with his
"a hRan
for several days. and has had a good
time. Not a word has he said about
his desire, if he has any. to run for the
high office of vice president.

her 10 Not One Hc-ieymoon,

From an English country town comes
the story of girl who has lost by death
three men to whom she was successive
ly engaged. In the first instance, the
youth to whom she had been betrothed
for year and half expired on the
very eve Of the wedding. In the sec
ond, another young man, to whom she
had been engaged soon after the mel
ancholy event. died a few days before
the marriage, and his successor in her
affections has now shared a similar
fate. Il seems that sundry ancient fe-
males of the neighborhood. attribu;ing
this series of calSmities TO the fact that
the young woman has the evil eve.'
have calmly suggested that the only
remedy Is to be found in burning her
alive. On that score she need have no
fear, of course. but the general opinion
is that her chances of meeting with a
fourth suitor are now infinitesimal.
The unlucky girl is described as being
OF an smisble and sympathetic dispo-
slticn, and as being. moreover, of very
attractive appearance.
