Washington Letter

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON. D. c., August 5t,h 1895.
This is the time when the amateur
presidential boomer hies himself to
Washington and, in the absence Of big
ger game, succeeds in getting himself
interviewed and booming his favorite,as
far as a dog day newspaper interview
can boom anybody. One Of the surest
ways to spotone of these amateur boom.
ers is by his cocksure way Of speaking
OF things being settled which everybody
who is at all informed on politics knows
to be extremely doubtful. One Of these
gentleman-a bright young lawyer from
lowa-is now in Washington. A for
eigner who didn't know any better and
listened to him for ten minutes would be
struck with wonder at the knowledge
he displays Of what will done nearly a
year hence by the republican party.
He disposes of the three men regarded
by politicians as standing the best show
for the nomination by declaring Reed to
live too far east, Mckinley to be too
much of protectionist, and Harrison
to have had his turn. Gov. Morton he
does not even mention, although most
close observers consider him very much
in the contest. This young prophet
then announces with an air that admits
of no doubt that Senator Allison will be
nominated by the Republicans. Sena-
tor Allison has many friends and admir-.
ers in Washington both in and out of his
own party, but l haven't found one of
them who considers his chance for the
nomination anything more than con-
tingent one, depending upon deadlock
in the convention between the friends
of the other candidates. Should such
a deadlock occur Senator Allison's chan.
ces OF being chosen as DARK morse would
doubtless be very good, but in the abb
sence of such deadlock the politicians
do not believe he will do more than re-
.ceivs the complimentary vote Of his own
delegation and perhaps a score more
scattered among the various states.
The amalgamation OF the republican,
democratic, and populist silver orga-
Mutations in Colorado was we'll received
at the silver headquarters in Washing
ton. where they say it had been expect
ed for some time, and that it is notice
served upon the democratic and repub'
lican parties of what may be expected
in all the silver states if the old parties
ignore silver in their national platforms

Pixies on Patents.
How to get $500 and Perhaps
Make a Fortune.

We secure patents and to induce people to
keep track of their bright ideas we offer
prize of one hundred dollars to be paid ON
the first of every month to the person who
submits to US the most meIltorious invention
during the preceding month. We will also
advertise the Invention free of charge in the
National Recorder, a weekly newspaper, pub.
lished in Washington, d. c., which has an
extensive circulation throughout the United
States and is devoted to the interests of in
ventors.
Nor so HARD AS 1T SEEMS.
The idea of being able to invent something
trikes most people as being very difficult;
this delusion the Company wishes to dispel.
1t is the simple things and small inventions
that make the greatest amount ofmoney and
the complex ones are seldom profitable. AL.
most everybody, at some time or another,
conceiyes an idea, which, if patented, would
probably be worth to HIM fortune. Unfor-
tunately such ideas are usually dismissed
without thought. The simple invention like
the car window which could be easily slid up
and down without breaking the passengers
back, the sauce pan, the collar button, the
nut lock, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel
are things that almost everyone sees some
way of improving upon, and it is these kind
of inventions that bring the greatest returns
to the author.
The prize we offer at the end ofeach month
will be paid, whether the application has
been acted upon by the Patent Office or note
Every competitor must apply for patent on
his invention through US, and whether he Sc
cures the prize or not, the inventor will hav
valuable patent.

In 1891 we raised the greatest corn
crop eyer grown, but we are going to
render it insignificant this year. In
1891 corn covered 76, 2O4, 900 acres and
yielded an average Of q bushels to the
acre. This year the cornfelds amount
to 82,3O4,OOO acres, or 100000 more
than in 1891 and all reports indicate a
larger yield per acre than in that year.
But at the same average yield the crop
will amount to 2,222,20S,OO0 bushels.

For some reason not made public the
admins taation seems to have changed
its mind about the case of Waller. the
ex-Consul who was sentenced by a
French Court-Martial to twenty years
Imprisonment for alleged reasonable
action in Madagascar, and who is now
confined in a prison in France. Some
time ago it was stated unoficially that
Ambassador Eustis had investigated
this case and that there was no reason
why this government should interfere
in Walters behalf. Now, it is stated
that Acting Secretary Of State Adee has
instructed Ambassador Eustis to de-
mand of the French government access
to the official record of the trial Of Wal
Ter, and to say that this government
will consider refusal equivalent to an
acknowledgment that the man is wrong
fully imprisoned. Whether this means
that the administration intends to do
something for Waller or that it merely
wishes Mr.. Eustis to get access to the
record for the purpose of showing that
Waller has no right to ask interference
in his behalf is at this time uncertain.
But it is difficult to understand how
Ambassador Eustis could have consid-
cred the case Investigated in the first
place without having seen the record Ct
Walters trial and conviction. 1t is
probable that the clamor raised by some
Of the newspapers for political effect
has had something to do with renewing
the administration interest in Waller
case.
Every now and then something turns
up that is calculated to convince the
most sceptical that the world is certain
ly growing more refined in its tastes,
if not better. One of those something's
turned up in Washington several days
ago. A thrifty Virginia farmer thought
be could sell it to the government, for
exhibition IN one Of the public museums

was human skeleton encased in an
iron frame, the skull being covered by
a heavy iron helmet. The would-be
seller of this gruesome relic Of the first
half of the century, which was recently
dug up in Prince George county, Va,
brought certified copies Of the county
records, showing that the skeleton in
the iron cage was that Of slaye, who
was placed alive in the cage about $50
years ago for having murdered his mas
ter, and who was publicly allowed to
starve to death as warning to his fell
low slaves. The man attempted to ex.
hibit this thing in Washington but so
much indignation was expressed at the
attempt to get money from such source
that he took himself and what he claim.

John Mourning Is the Victim of
Brutal Outrage,


| CHARLESTON, W. Va, Jan. 1.-THE
story of foul outrage was received
here today from Upelik River. At
Coonskin about O'Clock a. M, Deem
Der 20, four men went to the house of
John Mourning, white man, who
lived alone. Dragging him from bed
they tried to make him confess to the
murder of Simon Wallace and his
mother in the suburbs of this city four
years ago. Mourning denied all knowl.
edge of the crime, whereupon the men
put rope about his neck and hanged
him to a rafter of his house. When
taken down he still asserted his limo
cence and ignorance, whereupon he
was strung up again, and this time
when taken down he was unconscious.
TIE men laid him down and left him
lying half naked upon the floor. The
thermometer registered several degrees
below zero. When found by neigh ors
several hours later he was still uncon-
scious and his legs were frozen to above
the knees, and his ears and hands were
frozen. He was taken to friends
house and his condition is still critical.
A deputy sheriff and representative of
the prosecuting attorney have left here
for Coonskin and a thorough investiga-
ton will be made.

piece, was played to good house last
night. That the performance was for
the benefit of the Pioneer band may
have contributed to the good attend
ance but from whatever causes people
went to the opera house all were graft
fed. The play was directed by Mr..
Clifford Pembroke who was a mem Der
of Mr.. Irving's company. Beside, Mr..
Penn broke, Mr.. Campo and Mr.. Moore
the cast was made up of local talent but
excellent talent which had been devel-
oped by constant and rigid rehearsals.
The scenic effect was excellent. So
appreciative was the audience that at
the close of the performance there was
request that it be repeated tonight.
The management granted it 80 that
those who failed to see "The Bells"
last night may have an opportunity of
doing so tonight.
