MAGUIRE RETURNS.
Talks of the National situation and
the Single-Tax Campaign in
Delaware.


Congressman Mcguire returned yester-
day morning by way of the Northern Pa
cihc route from Chicago, where he took a
very prominent part in the Democratic
Convention, especially in connection with
the anti-funding bill plank, which was
adopted largely through his efforts. While
at Chicago Judge Mcguire corresponded
daily with THE CALL and his concise and
pithy summaries of the convention news
constituted feature OF the unexcelled
report furnished to the papers readers.
Although Mcguire did not get so far
East as Delaware he learned some inter-
esting facts about the campaign the single-
takers are carrying on in that State. "Al
the leading Democrats of Delaware" he
declared, with the exception OF Senator
Gray, have expressed an earnest desire
that something should be speedily done to
bring the single-taxers in Delaware to the
support OF the Democratic ticket"
Congressman Mcguire is naturally con-
fident of Democratic success in November
and believes that Bryan will be elected.
In the Congressman's opinion the silver
men and a majority of the Populists will
indorse the eloquent Nebraskan. In re-
gard to the recent Democratic convention
he declared that although the majority
were very determined they were perfectly
orderly. alt was great convention" he
concluded, land it will compare very
favorably with the other conventions in
the political history of this country"

Evolution Into Heaven Barred by the
Statute of Wickedness.
The Rev. DR.. Ollie does not believe that
evolution will take q bad man into the
kingdom OF heaven, or that evolution will
cure the ills of corrupt and wicked
nation.
Slavery in the South was not cured by
evolution" said he last night sit had to
be cut out with the Nations sharp sword.
Polygamy in Utah was not stopped by the
process of evolution; enactments of law
had to be applied before the cancer was
eradicated from the body social.
Time cures nothing, but on the con.
trary it in ntensifies existing evils and makes
bad mems hearts harder and more evil as
years roll on. And as it was with our own
people in the United States SO is it with
other people. "-s-'
The classes must be kept in check and
prevented from crushing the masses. And
likewise the masses must be checked from
paraiyzing the industries of the Nation.
Labor must be protected, and the laborinq
men have right to organize against the
crushing power of capital; but labor must
not say to man, You shan't work untiI
tell you. Every man must be privileged
TO work Tor whom he pleases, but all have
q right to protest against foreign pauper

A SUSPECTED LEPER.
CONSERVATION Created by Henry Grimm

>OHs'OEhaCion created by Henry Grimm
at the City and County Hospi-
tai.
Inc attendants at the City and County
hospital have been alarmed again over
the sudden appearance among them of
what seemed to be leper.
Last Thursday Henry Grimm, laborer,
10 years of age, walked into the hospital,
sat DOWN upon bench and SAID he was
SICK ana wished to be treated. He did not
know what was the matter with him, but
had nodules upon the back of his right
hand, resemb ling tubercular deposits. He
was also identified as the brother of Lena
Grlmm, the young girl who was sent from
the hospital to the Pesthouse lately for
leprosy.
The physicians, in view of these facts,
sent the man to an isolated room and, as
Ee was eplleptic and wandering in his
m1no, locked him In, so as to prevent his
escape and to guard against any possibility
OF contaglon should the case turn out to be
IeprNsy.
DR.. O'Brien, the City physician. DR..
Stahle, DR.. Dudley and DR.. Martinez, who
nave examined the patient, say that he
mas not any symptoms of leprosy. The
SKIN elevations upon the back of the hand
ana wrist have now almost wholly disap-
pesred, and are said to have resulted from
a rash. -
GRIMM, who is evidently half-witted,
telis many contradictory tales of himself
ana MS sickness. Last night he was much
Detter, and IN day or two, DIR. Dudley.
Ine resident physician, thinks he will be
discharged.

ND SOUNDS OF THUNDER PROCLAIM

bottom every day in the year SO thor
oughly that not even one of Pasteur's
microscopes could find speck Of dirt,
but this fact cuts no figure whatever,
and the suggestion from her lord and
servant, made with Difference becom-
ing his subordination in the establish
ment. that the house does not need
cleaning is secuted as coming from one
who speaks without the smallest atom
of information on the subject. "A man
never knows anything about a house
anyhow" "Just look at that carpet.
Just see that WALL and as he gazes,
protesting his inability to see anything
out of the usual, his wife enlarges on
the inability of man to realize the
presence of dirt when he sees it. "Be-
sides, Mrs. Smith, across the street, be-
gan her cleaning week ago, and Mrs.
Brown, on one side, and Mrs. Jones, on
the other, began yesterday, and it
would be simply dreadful to let things
go on as they are, for the house is
worse than a pigstye now" And so
the torrent of feminine eloquence flows
on and the wise man will not only let 1T
flow, but also get out of it's way, for If
there is one thing that woman knows
better than anything else, 1t is that
house always gets shockingly dirty dur
ing the winter and always needs to be
cleaned In the spring.
She does not clean up from choice.
oh. dear, no. She breads it worse than
an epileptic does his daily fit. For
weeks ahead she will talk about it and
its terrors. She remembers that the
last time she cleaned house she was in
bed for a week and had pain in her
back the rest of the summer. But she
knows it must be done, and so she goes
ahead and makes a martyr of herself

other, house-cleaning, like chorus sing
ing, or tableauX, or crOquet, seems to
breed quarrels as it goes forward and
tured, and he is wise and fortunate
husband who, when he sees the pre-
liminary signs, reconciles his mind to
the inevitable and goes fishing until
the mania has spent it's force and things
about the house have resumed their
normal appearance and condition. In
that case, he incurs only the reproach
of deserving his helpmeet during her
period of greatest tribulation, but saves
himself for week from the humilia-
ton of feeling that he is of little less
consequence than the Scrub-wOman
and a little more in the way than a
sore thumb.
Although aware that the preliminary
symptoms have appeared, the husband
generally learns Of the outbreak of the
acute stage by looking out Of the win
dow one morning as he is dressing and
seeing a couple of American citizens
of African descent sitting on the front
their presence at once arouses the lively
interest of his wife, who promptly goes
into state of mind because she told
them to come tomorrow, instead of to-
day, and nothing is ready for them.
''But, as they are here, they may as
we'll go to work" and SO they do, and
breakfast is eaten in trembling haste
and with occasional puffs of dust
through the door leading into the par
Tor, where the Senegambians are tax
ing up the carpet. The meal over, the
husband fees, and the trouble begins
in good earnest. The house is invaded
by molly throng of scrubbers, male
and female, carpet-beaters, who tear
up the carpets and carry them away in
wagon-loads, painters, paper-hangers,
carpenters, whitewashers, plumbers
to repair the water pipes, timers to
mend the cutters, all of whom bring
their bosses along to do the heavy
standing round, and tell how much bet
ter things were done when they were
learning the trade. The mistress of
the house is in her glory. 1t is her oc-
casion. She gets her husbands last
years buster on her back, and his last
summers straw hat on her head, over
good-sized towel to keep her hair
clean, and a splotch of smut on her
nose, and thus arrayed, she marches
through the halls with the tread Of
conquering hero, and climbs the stairs
ten times an hour and gets in every
body's way and tells everybody what
to do, and says she feels like her back
would break and declares her head is
splitting, and knows she is going to
have a spell as soon as this is over.
Its simply awful, but it's got to be
done, for if we didn't clean, what
would the neighbors think" an argu-
ment simply unanswerable. So she

perpetuating his indignation at the
outrage ON his domestic comfort and
that the picture merely represents a

The antiquity of the malady is thus
beyond doubt, and it is equally certain
that the disease now raging among the
housewives of this and every other city
of the Northern Hemisphere is the
same that has afflicted womankind
from the earliest ages. 1t must be

QUEEN OF THE FORTY THIEVES.
Polly Carr's Striking Beauty Won
Her Many Victims.


There was recently sent to prison in
London for . term of three years the
most skillful matchmaker and pick
pocket in that great English city. Her
name is Polly Carr, and the secret of
her great success was the extraOrdin-
airy beauty Of her face and figure. She
was known to the police as the Queen
of the Forty Thieves" and for years
she conducted her operations so skill
fully that she has invariably escaped
Imprisonment. The charge on which
she was recently sentenced was for
kidnapping child.
Polly has associated with bad char
acters ever since she was II years old,
when she was first arrested on a
charge Of theft She soon became one
of the most expert pickpockets in the
west end of London. Next she turned
her attention to Matchmaking, and so
successful was she at this calling that
her profits never fell much short OF
5000 a week. Her favorite scheme
was to waylay elderly gentlemen on
tuelf way uoue early III tHe lAol LII .
and ask them for the price Of cab fare,
saying that someone had stolen her
pocketbook. Her good looks and inno-
cent expression would soften the heart
Of the wayfarer, and she rarely failed
of a victim. The dupe would ask the
pleasure of accompanying her to the
cab, which invitation was always ac-
cepted. On the way they would pass
through some quiet street, and here
Polly would turn around and accuse
