more A woman called Mrs. Isaac
Asher left her 2-months-old baby in It's
cradle while she went out on a necesz
sary marketing trip, and when she re-
turned the baby was dead and had died
in a most unusual manner. Numerous
rats had swarmed up onto the cradle
and gnawed its face, head and neck SO
grievously that death resulted. This
remarkable story is authenticated by
eminent Baltimore physicians.

A correspondent Of a London relig-

The worshipers get up and stretch
themselves, and even take turn out

The affairs Of this world cannot be
conducted upon the single basis OF
gold; and the war and the contest OF
to-day is between those who seek to
destroy and outlaw silver and those
who seek to place 1t upon an equality

am for the full and complete restora-
tion Of silver as one of the coin metals
of the world. and therefore propose
to do whatever / can to promote that

The result as above has been certified
to by some of the officials Of the unicl.
and is now on file at democratic nation
al headquarters. Ii is given out not to
demonstrate the law of power these
publications have over the convictions
of their employees but to show exactly
what the intelligent workingmsn
ttinkc of the conditions now eonfron--
ing him. OF course. il also shows that
the newspapers in question cannot be
convincing in their arguments, but this
is not the point sought to be made. as
the democratic managers have long
since lost all faith in the local press
with the single exception Of The DIG
patch.
HOW THE MANAGERS REGARD IT.
At any rate. the poll Of the typos"
statement this morning from head
quarters:
THE five big morning newspapers
of Chicago are engaged in an attempt
to show that organized labor is opposed
to Bryan and free silver. 1t may be in
teresting to the goldbug publishers OF
these newspapers to know that OF 361
men employed in their composing and
press rooms 317 win vote for Bryan
while but A will vote for Mckinley.
These men belong to the finest labor
organization in the world, and cannot
be bulldozed or eoerced into sitting
their convictions.
1T will be seen from the above bal
lots that the estimate made by labor
leaders in Chicago that nine-tenths of
the organized labor vote OF Chicago
will be cast for Bryan and free silver
Is correct one, and that despite CO.
ercion and intimidation it will be
found in the ballot boxes Nov. 3.
WORKINGMEN ARE WITH BRYAN.
Wherever employees have chance to
express their views similar results
have been attained: In one Of the Ar
mour shops at the Union Stock yards.
where an Australian ballot was taken.
the vote stood 675 for Bryan and 125
for Mckinley. In another shop the
vote stood PSI for Bryan and II for
Mckinley. 1t is known that the Chi
cago Tribune, through its correspond
ents and agents, made canvass of en-
ployes in all the large manufacturing
towns of Illionis. The result was such
an amazing maj" ity for Bryan that
the returns were destroyed. They in
dictated majority of $4,000 for Bryan
and even larger for Altgeld. The only
consolation left for the Mckinley man
ayers is to take factory ballots in the
presence OF officials and loudly pro-
claim the result as victory for gold
despite the fact that all such ballots
are criminally fraudulent on their face.
Mckinley organs and Mckinley or
ators are wildly denouncing the plank
in the democratic platform which pro-
tesus against federal interference IN To-
cal affairs. They appear 20 forgot that
the republican national committed

One Of the strangest phenomena ever

One Of the strangest phenomena ever
witnessed in that section is to be seen
upon the farm of Theodore Roberts,
four miles from st. Croix, Ind. Last
spring he planted five acres in pop
corn, and a few days ago he noticed
that the shucks were abnormally swol-
len and that the ear seemed to be
larger than when It began to ripen, a
thing contrary to corn, as shrinkage
is the rule. Mr.. Roberts examined
some Of the corn and was surprised
to find that seven-eighths OF the grain
had popped open and were capped with
the white pulp as though they had
been in the fire. The phenomena Is
attributed to the hot weather that pre-
vailed two or three weeks ago. II
must have been populist corn field.
