The ruggedly honest old Dem
ocrat, John M. Palmer, who rep
resents the State of Illinois in the
U. s. Senate, declares that he will
resist to the "bitter end" the at
tempts of Chairman Heinrichsen
and a "corporaps guard" of the
State Central Committee, to COM
NIT the Democratic party of that
State to the free coinage of silver.
The old gentlemen has always been
a potential factor in determining
which way the political scales
should incline in that State and il
he has not lost much of the prest'
ige and influence hitherto welded
by him, he will undoubtedly rout
the sfree silverites" horse, foot ant
dragons and keep his State in thu
"Sound money" column.

LLOYD DOTS.

The weather remains fair and
warm. Easter passed without the
expected cold wave. There was
quite a party of young folks who
spent the kay in the hills ycster-
day. They will ever retain pleas.
ant memories Of the Easter Sun.
day of 1896.
There are often-yes, almost al.
observation-disclosures for all of US
clustering around that holy sea-
son. 1t holds "reminiscences for
some OF the readers of the DEMO.
Graf not wholly "peaceful."
DIR. G. M. Compton, accompa-
MED by his brother, DR.. Il. L.
Walker, returned last week from a
trip to the hills. The young gen.
tlemen profess to have gone on q
business trip, but say they found
the creeks too full for comfortable
travelling and so, like sensible
men, they combined business with
pleasure, and the trip was certain
ly satisfactory.
DIR. Walker is in New Orleans
this week. We wish him a pleas.
ant trip.
Messrs. P. A. Baltic and Jos.
Fitzpatrick are in Alexandria this
week.
The Misses Fitzpatrick returned
this morning from Alexandria,
where they have been spending
some days with relatives.
/ On last Thursday evening Mr..
A. j. Blankenship and Miss Cora
Lindsey, OF Lecompte, were mar

parents. We can understand now
why Mr.. b is 50 much pleased In
Louisiana, it is not every man's
} good fortune to win so fair and
sweet wife as her, Mr.. Blanken
ship. We wish the young couple
many years OF happiness and pros

A committee of prominent men from

at that place.
The committee consisted OF Mayor

Tenkey, President Elisha b. Daball, OF
the Board OF Trade. Postmaster Il. B.
Mahan, A. l.. Tyler, Of the Third Con-
necticut Regiment; Alderman c. 5. Dar-
row, and others. and they urged upon
alr. Herbert the advantages OF New Lon
don for such an institution. A deep har-
hor and unused buildings belonging TO
the Government were two OF the reasons
advanced to show that New London was
suitable.
The idea Of establishing the station
originated with Passed Assistant Engineer
f. G. Beig, United States navy. Mr..
Beg recently delivered an interesting and
valuable paper on the subject before the
American Society OF Naval Engineers.
