A Mascot and a Belle,

Mrs. Oliver Iselin alone, who is re- garded as Ia maseotte of the Defender is said to regard herself as forlorn as an Othello with occupation gone. As charmingly pretty now as in the recent days of her belledom as Miss Hope God dard, she is one of those women who look as we'll in simple yachting cos tune and sailor hat as in the gala toilet of q box at the ope1a or the horse show The cambrie shirt she wore under her jaunty jacket was not pinker than her cheeks; her eyes are azure, her smile discloses even, white teeth and there are dimples in the beaming face. Young Mrs. Iselin looks the embodiment of health and gayety; her joy in living is obvious, and of all the pretty sights in the international cup races none was more admired than her appearance on the allnondlike deck of the Defender. The same portraitist who pictured her ill the portraits of women show should perpetuate this graceful and beaming lady in her character of mascot of the white wings Boston Herald.

IT. Is Said that He will Take the Nomination
for Governor Next Time.
Philadelphia. Aug. 31-A despatch to
he Evening Telegram from Harrisburg
;ays that it is said there on what Is
considered good authority that Senator
Quay had more at stake in his hgnt
this week than the State craftsmanship,
the control of the Pennsylvania delega--
ton to the next Republican Nat1onal
Convention, and the National Chair
manship. He has his eye, it is SAID,
upon the Gubernatorial chair. and Will
oe a candidate for that place in 1898. HIS
term of Senator does not expire until
1899. but he could resign from the Sen
ate a couple of months before his term
expires, and could, as Governor, name
his successor. On Wednesday evening,
after the convention adjourned, close
friend put the question to Mr.. quay
thus:
'.Does not this means the Governor
ship for you?"
The Senator's only reply was smile,
which was thought to indicate that the
friend had made a good guess.
A month ago one Of Mr. quay s
strongest friends said that if the Sena-
tor won the State Chairmanship hght 1t
would mean that he would be candl-

Chatham, Aug. 29.-Since the ex-
animation of Albert Dean, who was
Inspected of being the kidnapper OF
little Elma Pruescuer, and whom the
title girl positively identified, new evil
lence of his guilt has come to hght'
md his past history shows that the
Chatham Justice was in error when ne
'eleased his prisoner.
1t appears that, although Dean made
positive statement that he had never
oeen under arrest before, he had in 1886
oeen arrested for assaulting little
,leven-year-old girl in Massachusetts,
Dean was tried and sentenced to ten
yars in the Charleston State prison
LAST June Dean was pardoned and soon
after came to visit his relatives in this
village, who, by the way, swore IN the
examination that their relative, the
prisoner, had never before been under
arrest Mr.. Hunt, the farmer who en-
oloyed Dean, stands ready to swear
hat on the night of the abduction OF
he Pruescuer girl that Dean came IN
and went to his room between one ana
.wo o'clock in the morning, and the
lay following worked with MIN all DAY
the field.
The relatives swore positively that
Dean was in Albany the day following
he abduction. The District Attorney
now has the matter in hand. Oflcer
Hulbert has been shadowing his pris-
oner over in Connecticut, and to-day
brought him to Hudson on requisitlon
,btained from Governor Morton
The alibi testimony will evidently be
entirely disproved, and Dean will be
again behind prison bars ere long.
Dean was brought out from Hudson
this morning and taken before Justice
Shufelt. District Attorney Mccormick
represented the people and Cornelius
Shufelt the prisoner.
Dean waived examination on the
.;harge of burglary, and was committed
to await the action of the next grand
Jury.

Indianapolis, Aug 29.-In an editorial

"a man who has been close to Cen

his friends do not believe they could

drawn into a contest for the nomination
1t is now evident that both Pennsyl-

General Harrison said this man. Our

Harrison, and if it is true that he has
won his fight it means that Harrison

that the masses of the Republicans OF
these two States are for Harrison. but
the bosses will control the delegations.

San Francisco, Aug. 31.-When the
Australian steamer MonoWai came in
last evening she reported that she did
not touch at Honolulu because Chinese
and natives had died there OF cholera.
The cholera was brought to Honolulu
by the Beltic on her last trip from Hong
Kong to San Francisco. When she
reached here she reported a clean bill
Of health. The customs officers dis
covered to-day, however, that during
the ten days she lay here there were in
i cubby hole in the steerage three bodies
Of Cinnamon who had died of cholera.
The health officer proposes to make a
rigid investigation, and there probably
will be q heavy fine for the officers OF
the Belgic.
At the time of the Monoawaii's sail
ing it was believed the disease was
under control. There had been eight
deaths from the disease and there were
only two cases remaining, and those
were both in Quara ntine. In San Fran
cisco, with such admiral facilities for
quarantining, even if the cholera should
get what might appear to be a foot hold,
it could be easily stamped out, the
health officials say.
