came deputy county surveyor; was
elected to the General Assembly, aud
began his acquaintance with Douglas ;
and fell in love with Il sweet and beauti-

The people of Maryland, during the
past week, have been witnesses TO 4 con-
dition Of affairs existing within the
ranks Of the Republican party against
which the Democratic party forewarned
them during the late campaign. Time
is beginning to stlipfr their face the
masks which Republican leaders have
worn, and people have at last been affor
ed an opportunity to note the exact as
pect for their true selves. Tie sancti-
monious holiness which their count
tenances assumed during the weeks of
the canvass, has displaced by the hard
lines Of selfish ambition. Surely the
spectacle Of boss warning against pub
lie sentiment, in the effort to establish
his arbitrary will rather than accede to
popular demand, was never more. vivid
ly illustrated than in the Senatorial
tight waged by Mr. George L. Yelling
ton. Mr.. Wellington, ike some other
Marylanders who are not Republicans,
has filled his Uranium With the non
sensical idea that "he is the people :
His unbridled ambition has led him into
the foolish attempt to re-fasten the
shaczIes which have but lately been
broken. Centreville OJSerrer.

chlcneo.. New rolItlcal Pa.lr.

Whether il was ". 7. Stead's book,
eff Christ Came To Chicago" or whetb-
er il was something else that caused it,
the people of ilai city have been led to
found i neg political party. 1t is only
a local affair, however, and will extend
no farther than the corporate limits OF
the Windy City. The sponsors Of the
new party have had trouble finding
suitable name for IT, Some propose to
call it the Municipal party, others the
Reform party. But reform is not good
word any longer. IL has been used SO
much in connection with unclean things
that fshy odor attaches 20 it. No, de-
cidedly. The apostles Of the new order
should not call their organization the
Reform party. Why not name It the
Chicago party, since its sole aim and OBJ
ject Of being aIe TO purify municipal gov
eminent a Chicago: Then other cities
might take mp the fashion and form also
a Cincinnati party, New York party
or a St. Louis party.
The new party is the outgrowth Of the
Civic federation This organization has
been trying for some years 10 get good
men elected to the common council Of
the city. The result Of their work so far
was expressed by G.. c. Holden as fol-
lows: "ln the council at present Is the
worst gang we ever had there. - Judge
L. G. Collins said that the people Of
Chicago were not proud Of the city eoun-
Gil He declared. in short, that if the
voters Of Chicago did not short y pick
ont honest men to govern the city the
lampposts would begin to blossom and
bear fruit. .
The conviction that has been forced
upon the minds Of members of the
Civic federation is that "a new party
out and out. political party working
for pure government in Chicago, must
be formed. A meeting has been held 20
organize it. Some good men who adher-
ed still 10 the old political parties and
objected to sunderipg their connection
with them We're asked if they thought

itics had anything to do with cleaning
up the city government Of Chicago, a
question they could not answer ON the
spur Of the moment
The new party viii go TO the pri-
maries and see that good men are nomi-
mated for councilmen on know the reason
why. The one alderman who was pres
emit at the meeting declared it was a
mistake to elect very poor men TO coun-
Gil, because they could not resist the
temptations that came in their way. An
alderman ought to know about these
things certainly.

IN 1884 Eugene Field wrote story
which he called THE Werewolf.
When it was finished he laid it aside
and year afterward entirely rewrQte it
In 1886 he again took it up and revised
it, and during the nine years between
that time and his death in November
last, he rewrote it eight times. His
last revision pleased him aud he decided
to print il. But death came too sud
denly, and the story was found unpub-
lished, among his effects. Mrs. Field,
concluding to have the story appear
gave it to The Ladies' Home Jouraal,
in which magazine AL of Mr.. Field S
work. outside of his newspaper articles,
was presented to the pnhlic. The story
will be printed in the next issue of the
Journal. strikingly illustrated by Mr..

GIudness Comes

With a better understanding OF the
w transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills which vanish before proper ef-
forts-gentle efforts pleasant efforts
rightly directed There is comfort IN
the knowledge that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupof Figs, prompt
" removes. That is why it IS the only
remedy with millions of families. and IS
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which il acts. It's therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, thatyou have the genuine article,
which IS manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then Taxa
tives or other remedies are not needed.
II afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended to the most slSillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informede everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

LIGHTING THE THEATRE.
Electric Lamps Tried Last Night
4 Perfect Success.


Theodore Hoffman, manager of the
Hawaiian Electric Co. had a large
force of men at work in the opera
house yesterday inspecting the electric
light wires and completing the work
of connecting the wires on the ceiling
lights. The work was necessary yes
terday from the fact that the ceiling
has been painted and the scaffolding
will be removed this morning.
There are 120 lights in the ceiling
and 2S on the side in brackets, these
burned clear and bright. The ceiling,
aintinted in pale blue and cream looked
very handsome but could be improved
by judicious use of gold leaf. There
were not more than twenty people in
the auditorium last night while the
lights were burning but, with this
small number the house was decidedly
warm and showed a lack of adequate
ventilation. An electric blower or fan
might be utilized to excellent advan-
tage.
When the house is finished there will
be in all seven hundred lights; these
will include those used on the stage
and in the dressing rooms. Mr.. Hoff-
