phatfcally, aside from the legal con-

the Democratic state central committee
of this state to call state convention
sometime this summer or fall, not too
late, and l think the earlier the bet
ter, take cogpszauce OF the condition
OF the country and to consider the
duty OF the Democratic party with
reference to that condition: especially
with reference to the currency question
upon which 1t IS the duty Of every poll
teal organization In this country to
make some response to the loud de-
mands of the oppressed people and
upon which the Democratic party can
take but one position, viz: That which
is imperatively demanded by q greater
majority Of the people Perhaps 80
per cent OF the Democratic voters Of
the United States are In favor of the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver at

with gold. To ignore their wishes is
to disrupt the Democratic party; to
dekay is to engender distrust in the
minds of the thousands as to the pro-

other political parties The time has
come for action, prompt. decisive. I'M

This. in substance, is the Detroit wo-
mans story:
With her mother in Detroit formerly
resided her mothers aged aunt, nu-
name woman, who gave up mucn TIME
to visiting the poor ana SICK. Cne
Marine heseital Of that city. was a dy-
ing sailor, who seemed terribly startled
as the aunt. in company with others,
approached his beside. He beckoned
her to him, however, ana after peg
ging that she alone OF the VISITORS
might hear what he had 10 sayIa re-
quest which the others granted by re-
firing to the next Yard-he stated that
as a young man he had one summer
been on a pirate vessel on the North
Carolina coast. He then went on to
say that he had. then helped to oyer
haul north-bound coasttng schooner.
FACED DEATH CALMLY.
On the vessel was q beautiful young
feminine passenger, dressed all in
her from her cabin. in which was hang
ing up painting of herself. While the
pirates were engaged in throwing the
crew overheard he stated that this
beautiful young lady paced the deck,
with hands folded on her breast and
her eyes raised to heaven. She made
no remonstrance Whatever, and he
walked to the vessels side, thence to
be plunged headlong into the ocean.
He wanted to take away her picture
and her deg-a little black and tan fell
iow-but dreaded to touch either. At
ter the pirates had plundered the
schooner of money and other treasures
they abandoned the vessel, having set
1t under fun sail, TO drift to its doom
with the picture and the dog aboard.
The dying sailor said that the young
Woman's sweet face had haunted him
throughout life, and his confession was
prompted by striking resemblance be-
tween her and his elderly listener.
Mis-. Poole's visitor stated that the
sailors story had been for years a cur
rent tradition of the descendants of
Burr's family, though they had hither-
TO paid very little attention to it. Its
extraordinary corroboration by the oc-
cidental meeting Of these two women
appears to settle forever the recent
mystery as to the death Of Mrs Aston.
,The Detroit woman says that the sub
1ect OF the painting is beyond doubt
Aaron Burr's daughter-a statement
corrohorated by other pictures Of that
unfortunate woman in her possession.
as also by still others belonging to the
Aston family.

| Elkton, Md, June THE story Of
how Aaron Burr's only child, beauti
full young Theodosia, met her death Al
the hands of ocean pirates years ago
and now that fact was only very re-
| Gently established by the discovery OF
a portrait Of her, rescued from the
schooner from whence she was thrown
into the sea, Is told in print herewith
for the first time. Involving, as it does
the death-hed confession of one of the
pirates who drowned the young wo-
man. the tale seems more like fiction
than verified history; but there are per-
sons living hereabouts who have veri-
fed in detail. and who will youch for
its accuracy.
Theodosia Burr, a young Woman of
unsual mental attachments, was mar
ried to the SON of Judge Aston, of
South Caroliana, a relative of Wash
lngton Aston, the celebrated historical
portrait painter. Mr.. and Mrs. Aston
resided on their plantation near
Charleston. When Aaron Burr con-
templated returning from the extend
ed visit he made to Europe after his
trial, he wrote Mrs. Aston, to whom
he was devotedly attached, asking her
to meet him in New York on his ar
rival there. Mr.. Aston, engrossed
with the business of his plantation,
found it impossible to accompany his
wife. There being no railroads in those
days, and Mr.. Aston, deeming that a
summer trip from Charleston to New
York by sea would be less irksome to
his wife than stage journey by land,
chartered a coasting schooner. In this
Mrs. Aston set out. She took with her
n hor fo
painting of herself. But she never
reached New York, and down to the
present day the fate of Aaron Burr's
only child has been a matter Of speeu-
iation among historians. some contend
ing that the vessel and all on board
We're lost at sea, others asserting that
Mrs. Aston fell into the hands of
some of the pirates who in those DAYS
infested the Atlantic coast
But the mystery has at last been
cleared up. Its accuracy is youched
for by the former rector of Trinity
Episcopal church, Elkton, a clergyman
throughout Maryland and
the middle states.

was visiting in his native state, North |
Carolina, and for several days was the
guest of the widow of the late DR.. Will |
