M'KlNLEY's CABINET.
A Western Correspondent Who Knows All
About It.

(Dispatoh to Comm roial Tribune
Chicago, Oct. 4-Up here in Chicago il
il gone way past figuring on pluralitiel
or maJorities for Mckinley. Every body
knows that Mckinley Is going to be
elected. The only thing they are calcu.
lating on now is, who is going to be in
McKinley's Cabinet.
I spent couple of hours this Afternoon
in the company Of men who are known
all over this Nation. We discussed place
after place, the fitness of men for thii
and that other Cabinet positions, and
when we all got through this is whal
we settled down upon:
For Secretary of State, BENZ. Harrison
Secretary Of the Treasury, Marcus A.
Hanna; SECRETARY of War, Russell A.
Alger, OF Michigan; Secretary of interior
ex-Gov. Estes. of California; Attorney
General, ex-Gov. Merriam, Of Minnesota;
Secretary of the Navy. G. A. Boutelle,
of Maine; Postmaster General, Il. @.
Eavns, Of Tennessee; Secretary of Agri
culture, W. D. Hoard, of Wisconsin.
Wonder how this W Ill strike the people
of the country. It's an awful good list.
There is some talk about Thos. B. Reed
for Secretary of State, and there is very
little doubt but that If there was the
slightest prospects that he would accept
he would be rendered the place. may
be away of, but am willing to gamble
a great big apple against copper cent
that more than half Of those whom
have named will be found in President
McKinley's Cabinet.
Gen. Grosven0r came to town today.
He has been Jumping in Iowa, and he
says there is no more doubt about Nc.

and MI. Gregory les had opportunities
that few men have of ascertaining the
sentiment of tho State, made bet today,
and your humble servant II stakeholder,
that Illinois will give double Ohio's
plurality for Mckinley.
W. H. Chase. OF Toledo, long one oil
the most accurate spirits in the Repub.
loan League Club OF Ohio, is here. HI
trail and Western States for Mckinley.
He tells me that il there Is any Bryan
sentiment anywhere he has not been able
to find 1t.
As to Northwestern Ohio and the Lucas
District particularly, where it has beer
reported there Is a great Republican
apathy. Col. Chase said: "It is comint
our way every day. There was goot
silver sentiment in several sections, bu1
the work that has been done in the dis
tribution of literature and from tn,
stump has changed the drift, and 1t il
now setting strongly in favor of McKip
ley and Southland. What Col. Chas,
says about the Toledo District, I find tt
be the situation all over the State. Their,
is, oh, don't know what to call It,
crazy talk up here about Bryan carrying
the State, but it is SO ridiculo1s that i
sort of makes man mad to be asked
about 1t.
hope the people here at the Republi
can headquarters will understand one,
for all that Ohio Is as sure for Mckinley
as any corner on the face of this mundan,
globe.

On the assum ution that the "Hanna-

Argus figures out great Democratic
victory in that state. On the same as
sumption it will probably figure out q
Democratic victory today in Georgia.
The Popocrats are able to get consola-

agony will be over, and then the Argus
can establish an entente cordiale between

MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The contents of Gunton's Magazine for
October are: Economic Effect of Ap-
Ireoiating Money; Government by In
junction; The Foreign Market Delusion /;
Strikes in Russia; Party Government on
it's Trial; Industrial Development of he
Orient; Tho March of Invention; The
Gu ban Negro; Sweating System in New
York City; The Economics of Organized
Charity; Convict La Dor; Editorial Cru
chile; Economics in the Magazines; Book
nGyitws.
The timeliness of the matter in The
National Magazine for October is shown
in the leading article, which is an inter
esting account by Edmund S. Hooh, of
the great Chicago Fire. The illustra-
tions represent the city as 1t was after
the oonfagration and as it is today.
Another timely sketch, owing to the ap-
preaching political contest is, Gold and
Gold Mining, with illustrations by W..
d. Van Blarcom, Jr.; DR.. jackson Is

once famous anaesthesia controversy.
which interested the medical world in
the early forties. These articles are pro-
fusely supplemented by photographs as
IS also the contribution from S. S.
Peters, entitled The First Homestead In
the United states.
The October number of Harper's Mega
zine contains the first installnent of MIR.
du Maurier's long expected novel The
Marian. The opening scenes are laid
in boys school in Paris in the early
fifties. and the hero is introduced at the
very beginning of his career. From this
fact and from the hint conveyed in the
introduction it seems not unlikely that
Mr.. du Maurier, following the example
OF Fielding and Tbackeray, will attem pit
IN The Marian to portray the charac-
ter of man in the same catholic spirit
were created. Of one thing there can
be no doubt. The story has all the spon
taneity and charm Of Trilby and Peter
lbbetson, and the authors relation to
his reader is as cordial and confidential
as only Mr.. du Maursr knows how to
make it. A fine new portrait of the au-
thor of The Martian Is the frontisriece
to the number.
1.-Two articles 6 in Appletons' Popular
Science Monthly for October will appeal
strongly to those who enjoy the conflicts
of science: The Metric System, defense
by Prot. Il. G. Mendenhall against the
recent attack OF Herbert Spencer and
The Vivisection Question, by Prof. G.
f. Hodge, concluding article in which
the utility of the practice is set forth.

merchandise, the mining of it is an in

How the Hon. Arthur Sewall loves the
people! What horror he has OF monopo-
lies and Of the "money power. How
glad the people Of Maine must be that
there is one man in the state loyal to
their interestsl While Democrats.
such as the Hon. James W. BIZ dbury of
Augusta, the Hon. Charles f. johnson
of Waterville, the Hon. e. B. Winslow
of Portland and others almost innumer-
able, have deserted the poor and gone
over to the money power he has stood like
a rock for the people. And thore is no
sslfishness about this stand Of Sewall's.
Years ago he took it when, as he
tells us in his letter of acceptance 1.-THE
hour of triumph seemed remote, and when
the arrogant money changers throughout
the world boosted that the conquest
OF the American people was complete. -
There have been men who have sug
gssted that Mr.. Sewall espoused the
cause Of free silver as furnishing an easy
and efficient way of cutting down the
wages of his employees, but they were
wicked men envious of the great heart
that swells In Mr.. Sewall's bosom.
When the poor hath cried Sewall hath
wept; though previous to his nomination
for vice president he did his weeping in
secret, and permitted not even his most
intimate friends to know what a tender
heart he had.
But now that the leo of his we'll known
modesty has been broken Mr.. Sewall
promises to be a most valiant knight in
the battle for the poor. Not Bryan HIM
self could excel his valor as he hurli
himself in his letter of acceptance against
the ramparts of the money power ''be

Suicide by Poison.

Mrs. Mort, wife of VIM. Mort, of
Taneytown, Carroll County, took two
teaspoonfuls of paris green with sui
cidal intent, and died from the effects
on Tuesday morning of last week.
She took the poison on Monday morn
ing about ten O'Clock and continued
her work during the day and retired
about ten O'Clock at night. Soon after
retiring she was attacked by a fit of
vomiting and remained Ill during the
night. 1t was not until she had been
closely questioned the next morning
that any one knew the cause of her
Illness, when she admitted having
taken the poison for the purpose of end
ing her life, as she said she wanted to
die. All medical aid failed to neutral
ize the poison, which had gone entirely
through the system and she
died near noon. Domestic trouble is
said to have been the cause of her ac-

Although very busy man, DIR. r.
V. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, has found
time in which to write great book of
over one thousand pages, entitled, The
Peoples Common Sense Medical Ad-
wiser. in Plain English, or Medicine
Simplified. Few books printed in the
English language have reached SO
great sale as has this popular work,
over $50, 900 copies having been sold at
$3.50 each. The profits on this en0r-
nous sale having repaid its author for
the great amount of labor and money
expended oni its production, he has now
decided to giVe array, absolutely free,
100000 copies of this valuable book,
the recipient only being required to
mail to the WORLDS Dispensary Medi-
cal Association, of Buffalo, n. Y of
which company he is president, twen-
ty-one (2l 0ne-cent stamps, to cover
cost of mailing only, and the book will
be sent post paid. 1t is veritable
medical library, complete in one vol
ume. 1t contains zoos large pages, and
over 300 illustrations, some of them in
colors. The Free Edition is precisely
the same as that sold at $3.50, except
only that the books are bound in strong
MANILA paper covers, instead of cloth.
1t is not often that our readers have
an opportunity to obtain a valuable
book on such generous terms, and we
predict that few will miss awaiting
themselves of the unusual and liberal
offer to which we have called their
attention.

A Horse. frightened.

A horse attached to sleigh and
driven by Miss Sweeney, of near Mt.
st. Mary's, was frightened by dog
along the turnpike south of Thurmont,
on Friday of last week. The horse at
tempted to run and in tine effort of
Miss Sweepy to check it. it ran into
Hunting Creek and was stopped. The
occupants got on an island and, being
unable to get the team out, were as
sisted in doing so by young man,
who waded in the stream and turned
the horse around and led it out. In
doing this the sleigh was upset in the
water, which made a disagreeable ride
home foE the young lady.
