year 1890. the republicans learned that,
in nominating Delamater, they had pre-
sumed too much. The election came
midway between presidential years; on
its results the democrats rested political
hopes which proved to be the merest
illusion.
on that score, the official returns
from Pennsylvania are in evidence. In
the office of governor Mr.. Pattison did

Their decisions are to be subject to

1t was further resolved that it was
highly desirable that South Austria

Responding to an invitation of the
conference, DR.. Cockburn submitted
an offer on behalf of South Australia
that she was willing to cooperate,
provided a guarantee either from the
contributing colonies or from them
jointly, with the imperial Govern
ment, be given that her financial
basis as regards the Port Darwin

years. The conference resolved in
favor of all the colonies contributing
equally to the scheme.
MELBOURNE, Jan l9.-Sir W.

vote on the question because they de-
sired that the contributions should be

A painting called the "Isle OF

other, Wind Against Tide" ob-

exhibition of 1881. This was bought

A picture, "Campton Meadows"
was exhibited in Boston in 1873.
1t happened to be a scene on the
estate OF President Garfeld's grand
father. The G. A. r., recognizing
the fact, purchased the picture for
the president. Shortly after receiv-

to strike the islands just at a time
when the fires of Kilauea are at
their best.

tropical appearance of the Molokai
range of mountains particularly
struck my fancy.

principal object of my visit to the

that here, where there are so many
beautiful things to contemplate.
Mr.. Spreckels has left the size and
everything connected with his pic
ture in my hands.
