river. They will go to Populists,
to Democrats, to silver Republicans,
but they will none of them go to
Mckinley, that candidate hand
made by Hanna on a platform to
which in his hearts of hearts he is
false.
Heaven hates coward, and
Mckinley has not been brave. The
people are against himand the gods
will not fight ON his side. Give the
West to silver, California, Oregon,
Washington, Montana, Idaho, Ne
vada, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming,
the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas and
Texas. Silver has already con-
quered them all. And the South
Mckinley cannot win or hold a
foot of it. Every former slave state,
bar Delaware, will go Democratic.
There is no doubt in a national war
with the Democracy for free silver
of such states as Missouri, Ken
lucky and Maryland. Even West
Virginia would be hard to hold.
Mckinley may kiss hope good bye
so far as Missouri, Arkansas,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia,
Florida, the two Carolinas, Virginia
and Maryland are involved. He'll
get none of them.
Count up the others, and see if
he'd have enough should he carry
them all. He'll be made to sup
defeat. But even were they
enough, fate has not decided that
Mckinley carry the others. He
can carry Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode
Island and Connecticut, the five
New England states. Reed, the
Republican Achilles, will sulk in
his tent, but his region will go for
Mckinley. Unless split occur at
Chicago, and it well may happen,
and gold Democrat do in the East
what Teller is doing in the West,
Mckinley will carry New Jersey
and Delaware.
Mckinley is sure, too, of Penn
sylvania, despite the cloud of Cam
eron and his silver lining. Steve
Elkins, adept, may steal him West
Virginia. There is streak of
solemn Dutch all through Wiscon-
sin which may save to Mckinley
that sober commonwealth. For the
decency of the thing count Ohio for
Mckinley, albeit should the Demo
Gratis name Campbell, Mckinley
would be driven to the buckeye
wall in moment. Count all those
states for Mckinley. But the
others. of the North-Minnesota,
Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana,
and New York-are debatable,
fghtable ground.
Mckinley is not sure of any of
them. In the doctrine of chances,
he's sure to lose one-third of them.
Illinois in instance is almost certain
to turn on Republicanism and rend
it. Tanner, whom the Republicans
name for governor, is bad and the
people know it. Altgeld, after one
gets through with his Anarchistic
side, has been the best governor the
state ever saw, and all concede it..
The state is a-riot for free silver
Mckinley can't carry country or
city in the state. Illinois is about
as certain against McKinly as
Texas itself. There you are.
When the Democrats come to-
gether at Chicago we will know
more. But we are already assured
of McKinley's defeat. A bolt at
Chicago hurts him. 1t is poradox
of politics, but it's true. All
Mckinley has is the gold strength.
A bolt at Chicago means division
of that strenth. For one thing, it
would make his overthrow in New
York, which seems sure already,
certain.-JoHN J. INGALLS,, Ex-
United States Senator.

How to Dress for a Photograph.

---\%&b<-
How to Dress for Photograph.
The modern photograph is a work
of art; and the preparation for
having ones photograph taken is
also a highly artistic proceeding,
requiring, according to up-to-date
ideas, a deal of forethought and the
aid of the highest aesthetic training.
Whether a woman be beautiful or
not, she is not to be blamed for
desiring to appear at her best in
her "counterfeit presentment"; and
now that even the lack of beauty
may be compensated by graceful
posing and becoming dress, the
plain woman may have pleasing
and even pretty photo if she will
but heed the dicta of those versed
in art. An article in Demorest's
Magazine for July, Gin the Photo
graphic Studio" reveals some of
the secrets of the up-to- date artistic
photographer, and furnish es
valuable hints to all interested in
having artistic portraits. 1t is
charmingly illustrated with port
rats of numerous society bellies
who have recently posed before the
camera.
intercollegiate Boat-Racing" is
another handsomely illustrated
paper, especially interesting at
present when everyone is hoping
that Yale will win at Henley.
Some of the loveliest views in New
York City's great recreation ground
are given with "Play Hours in
Central Park" Every woman
will be interested in "Society Fads''
and GA Poster Luncheon" Some
French Embroidery Designs"
furnishes unique patterns for dainty
embroidery on linen; the illustrated
paper on Mount Holyoke College
will be read with pleasure by all
the girls; and the article on
"Summer Hygiene" gives practical
suggestions about every day matters
regarding health that are valuable
and timely.
The Fashions are just what one
needs at this season, and everyone
who has ever used the patterns
given with this magazine knows
their intrinsic value and how prac-
teal they are. Every number of
Demorest's contains a Pattern
Order which entities the holder to
reliable and stylish patterns at a
merely nominal cost. The patterns
that can be obtained during year
on the Orders given would, if pur-
chased in the regular way, cost at
least from $50 to SIS.
Everyone who will take the
trouble to cut out this notice and
forward it, with ten cents, to the
address below, will receive a sample
copy of Demorest's Magazine, con-
tanning Pattern Order which
entities the holder to any pattern
illustrated in any number of the
Magazine published during the last
twelve months, at the uniform price

over thirty patterns are illustrated

A MUSICAL NUISANCE.
John Leech Was Literally Driven T.
Death by Organ Grinders.

Look at the case Of John Leech,
which may be taken as typical When
Leech got into his Dutch house at Ken
sington, he thought he had settled down
to an existence Of unalloyed happiness
But the house had one terrible defect,
soon to be discovered 1t stood where il
was encircled by streets and news in.
tested by organ grinders. The nuisance
was insufferable and yet incurablc, and
worse for Leech from his studio being
at the top of the house, where the sound
from five or six instruments was heard,
all playing different tunes at the same
time. When a timid messenger was
sent out, some truculent offenders were
nfndable-hidden deep in stable yards
land others were so far away for all
but noise that it seemed unreasonable
to require their removal This horrible
torment, which went on then, as it does
now, from early morning till late at
night, was practically the cause Of
Leech's death.
When Mr.. Holman Hunt returned tC
town, after an absence for a time, he
found him leaning upon a stick like an
invalid. There was the man Of spirit
and infexibility, but he stood as if the
foundations had been loosened. eyes, 81
he said, with grievous candor, 81 am ;
doomed man. Nothing will save me ex
cept as an invalid, and 1 will tell you
in all sober and solemn earnestness
what has killed me. Itwould be laughed
at as absurd by many, but it is th'
naked truth, which you will understan,
/ (although the men in parliament whit
talk so glibly about their delight at see
ing the poor amused in back street
would not do so), it has been the inces
SAINT vexation Of organ grinding an'
the need Of doing my work while tn
wretched instruments of torture were
from different points. turning out thei
discordant notes into my brain. " Thi
declaration from his lips had, perhap
in its precise sense, been inspired b.
