sOMERVILLE, July IS, 1Ss6.-A large
and vicious Maltese cat, well known in
the East End. became crazed two days
ago and has severely bitten a number Of
people. The cat started his career some
weeks ago by killing some chickens. For
this offense he was placed in confinement
by his owner Jacob C. Huff.
When released on Wednesday he at
tackled little Harry Janson on the street
and bit the boy through the hand. Mrs.
Van Alien, of Hamilton street. vino went
to Young Janson's assistance, WAS set Upon
and badly bitten by the Infatuated animal.
T~hree-year-old Edie Durham innocently
attempted to soothe the cats anger and
received a vicious bite through the hand.
The cat was finally cornered by his owner,
who cautiously extended his hand to grasp
him. He was soon wrHhingT Will pain,
with the cats teeth and claws set in the
flesh of his right hand. The cat could not
be shaken off and it was necessary to pry
open its Jaws before Huff was released.
Physicians were hastily summoned to
cauterize the wound OF those bitten by
the mad cat. Huffs condition is danger

The serious Illness of the head Of the YAM

The iron and steel industry is less sat

competition, further sacrifices in price and
a decreased prospect for Improvement in
the future. The trade generally is dull-

situation continues IN the wooden and
cotton goods industries. and manufacture
ing lines generally, which continue marx

r ne Dan Lewis silyerste dodge.

The action Of the Dan Lewis gang OF
kiekers is quite characteristic. TO COM
pass their own miserable ends in local
politics. they have taken up the brigand
cause Of silver. n raised the standard
Of revolt against the regular Democratic
organization.
what these fellows are after is pap
they want offices and patronage IND
perquisites and power. They want TO
tarn out the present party leaders and
workers and shove themselves to the
front instead. They care no more about
silver than they do about wampum; but
they think they see in the present agi-
fation a chance to gain the confidence
Of the masses, which they might other
wise not win in a lifetime.
This is a contemplate, a b~laekguardly
enterprise. The Democracy Is in sore
straits enough w4thout being further
torn by the greed of its w adherents,
moved by petty j~ealousies and grievances.
we do not think the Lewis movement
has any strength among the voters. and
we are confident that when the motives
animating it are understood It will be
shunned by every honest Democrat in
the county.

WILL THEY RBTURNq
Members Of r Church. GreenvIlle,
Discuss fsae fractional Quarrel.

There are many rumors current about
the Greenville section concerning what
action the former members of the Grace
Episcopal Church may do as regards re-
turning into the fold.
In relation to the subject one of the
church authorities said last night
III rufnor that overturcs had been
made to the old members to request them
10 return TO the fold is false. While we
certainly desire them to return we have
not coaxed nor approached them on the
subject. But we canno see how. If
they profess any sincerity in their faith,
they can stay away since their obstfuc-
ton has been removed. We do not deny
that we need their support. but still If
they still persist In being sc reticent about
joining the church, we cam carry Things
along without q as we have for the
last five years.
AS regards who will he The new minis
ter he would say nothing. excep. that for
a while they would have visiting ministers
from whom the congregation would make
their selection. 1t is understood, how
ever, thai If a suitable sslee5ie1 be made
the withdrawn members would again lake
their place in the church and elevate
the church into its former prominent
position.
notwithstanding the denial of the above
gentleman. overtures Were made TO the

This gang Of kickers viii brace up the
regular party organization TO stand for
sound money. The way for it to do
this is TO nominate IN unmtstakable
Gold Democrat for Congress. Allan l.
McDermott is the ideal man. But if he
does not meet with favor, of if he re-
fuses to run-as some say he will-why
then. some other pronounced advocate Of
sound money should be chosen. In the
cases Of the Assembly and local candi7
dates, It does not matter, of course,
what their private opinions may be on
this issue. They might better be gold
men. Of course, but as they wiz have no
power to AFFECT the status of the cur
rency. one way Or another, their opin-
ions will not count in determining their
fitness for office.
But the Congressional nominee is all
important. He must be for gold to the
marrow Of his bones. He must be for
gold, first. last and all the time. He
must be this for principles sake, even
if he were to be defeated. But he will
not be defeated. for no silver man can
carry this county. No silver a could
come within 10000 votes of carrying it.
II Allan L. McDermott or some other
out and out gold man is nominated for
Congress by the Democracy, the Re
publicans viii rave a raresopportunity TO
show a patriotic spirit. If they are
half as honest as they pretend in their
devotion to sound money, they will put
no candidate for Congress in the field
against a ound money Democrat, but
will do all in their power to elect him
by a practically unanimous vote for the
general good of all the people.
