Arkell and Hancock.

The first news that the president of the
United States received of the death Of
General Grant came In dispatch that
read:
Grover Cleveland, Washington:
Grant dead. Send two noncommissioned Of
fcers and two privates. W. j. ARKELL.
That was the first of series Of tele-
grams that came flying into Washington
at the rate of half dozen an hour, and
each one signed Nv. J. Arkell "
When the fact became known that Gen
eral Hancock was going to Mount Nc
Gregor TO arrange for Giants funeral, he
received a series of dispatches with the
same signature. General Hancock reached
Saratoga and went to the house of j. W.
Drexel. Mr.. Drexel, said he "who the
devil Is Arkell?' "This Is he,n said Mr.
Drexel. Let me introduce you. Mr.

for $50, for which he would pay Howard
got the check, but instead of mailing it he
and the Brothertons gathered about It and
neatly raised the sum from $50 to GA 900.
They took it to the bank of Hiokox q
Spear and cashed the check. The forgery
was soon discovered, and the matter was
reported to Crowley. He arrested the
men, and they were sentenced to IA years
In the penitentiary. They appealed the
case and were again convicted
While waiting to BIO sent over the bay
George Brotherton and Jack Riley, another
inmate of the Jail, overpowered the keeper
and made their escape. Crowley had great
difficulty in finding them. When the pris-
oners walked out of the jail they were met
by porter of a down town fruit store,
who took charge of them and secreted
them on his premises. The chase finally
became so hot that the porter became
frightened and had them removed to q
place on Boone street.
Shortly afterward they were again re-
moved. BY that time the chief had located
them and, after inspecting the place and
watching the movements of those In
closed in about the place ON a bright moon
light night. Captain Lees and Policeman
Ellis were on one corner, two detectives on
another, and the chief and Policeman
Martin on a third, lying beneath q palm
tree in garden. All were out of sight
from the house. Both the chief and his
men were heavily armed, for the men they
had to deal with were known to be desper-

taken. Crowley carried a short double
barreed shotgun, loaded with buckshot.
While waiting the men for whom Crow
ley was watching came suddenly up the
street, advancing toward him. There WAS
no mistaking their identity. The situa-
tion was extremely critical, for In the
bright moonlight both parties were visible
to each other. Crowley's mind was made
up in flash, and he determined to capture
the men at all hazards. He made spring
for the fence which separated them, and
in going over the pickets his clothing
caught and he was sent sprawling on the
other side, right in front of the men he
wished to arrest. But the chief was equal
to the emergency. AS he fell he managed
to twist his body so that he would turn .
complete somersault. He came up on his
feet, with his gun at present, and there
was nothing for the crooks (who already
had their hands on their weapons) but to
surrender or receive the contents of both
barrels of the chiefs weapon.
1t was close shave and in telling Of 10
years afterward the chief would say that
but for his suppleness on that memorable
occasion his life would have paid the PEN
atty of that unfortunate fall.

And the wind breathes sweet and low.
Mid its rushes minnows hide
Or Ger silver shadows glide,

Plash their dusty plumes and drink.

Stumbling down the sun hecked glade,
With his goat hoofs tearing through
Vines and blossoms wet with dew.
We shall see his shaggy thighs,
His pulled cheeks and gloating eyes,
And his hairy pointed ears
Sharper grown with ceaseless fears.
We shall see him as he stands,
And with swift and nimble hands,
From the reed beds, where they grow.
Pluck him pipes wherein to blow,
Notching each with eager skill,
Tossing each aside until

Shall grow dumb to hear him play.

ing: '"The election of Mckinley

ceive 27O electoral votes. Bryan
will receive 40 and there are six

which are doubtful, bu the prob

these 81 votes will go i to the

First, Cheap Silver Money-Next. Cheap
Paper Money.
The free coinage of silver is only
part of the. financial system ADVOCATED
by Mr.. Bryan. In an article published
in the Arena for February, 1895, Mr..
Bryan ss.id:
"When the United States, without
awaiting the aid or consent OF any 9th
er nation, opens its mints to the FREE
AND UNLIMITED , COINAGE OF
G OLD AND SILVER at the present
legal ratio of l6 to i, it will bring real
relief to it's people and will lead the
way to the restoration OF bimetallism
thr oughout the world.
CIT WILL THEN be prepared to
pc rfect it's financial system by furnish

nd sufficient in volume to supply the
leeds OF commerce. Its paper money
will not be loaned then to favorites,
but will be paid out in the expenses oi

1 benefits in decreased taxes"

L per money into circulation was ex.
/ planned by him in speech published
Il in the Congressional Record for June
H5, 1894, in whicE he said:

James A. Garfield. when in congress,
said of the proposition to enact free
coinage of silver:
"Since HAVE BEEN IN PUBLIC

THAT CONTAINED
so MANY ELEMENTS OF VAST
RASCALITY, OF COLOSSAL SWIND-
LING, AS THIS.

cial shock of 1887, the later shock OF
1857, and the still later shock in 1873

CIAL RUIN, THE OVERTHROW OF

WHICH WOULD FOLLOW.

carried abroad Do this and REVO

A frantic appeal has been made
to the owners of silver mines to
contribute to the Bryan campaign
fund the amount of "a cents per
ounce on the output Of the mines
for one month, which, the circu-
lar says, will be the additional
profit to the mine owners in case
Bryan is elected. On last years
output this additional profit of %
cents an ounce would give the
mine owners S35, 755, ,2S0.

river with Lake Michigan, and there
by increase the commerce between the
northwest and the south. Money could
be issued in another way. We can use
any available coin on hand to take up
the matured bonds and replace the
coin so used with paper money. | have
introduced a bill during this congress
to provide in this way for the payment

Bryan does we'll to pose as the
friend of the suffering. A reso-
luton passed the U. S. Senate
Kyle voted against tito author
sze the secretary of the navy to
send a U. S. ship to Russia with
the grain donated by generous
Americans. In the house Bryan
opposed the bill and it was de-
feated. The grain was sent by
private subscription. He was not
the friend of the poor then, and
he is not now.

Here is a portion of Senator
Pettigrew's arraignment of SEN
ator Kyle: Kyle lodged a vote
to place a duty of Is cents a pound
on hops, to increase the duty on
ale, porter and beer, and to IN
crease the duty on brandy. He
also votod against a duty of SIC
per head on cattle, S1.5O on sheep
and hogs, and $50 on horses. On
a direct vote to place sugar on the
free list, Kyle and all the Popu-
list senators, except PETER, voted
no."

Legislation and keep up the silver
agitation. 1t therefore becomes
necessary for republicans to watch
carefully the moves of the enemy
for the balance of the campaign,
and to stand ready to thwart any
movement that would result in
decreasing the vote cast for mem
bers of the legislature. This is
the only show the silver proPa-
ganda have of getting any vic.
tory out of this campaign, and
even in this they must be defeat

LIKE 1860.
Secretary Tracey Likens the Demo-
cratic Movement Today to the
SlaYe-ho,ders's Play.

Cen b. F. Tracey; You ask my opin-
ion as to which plank of the Chicago
platform is the worst. | answer un-
hesitatingly that it is the plank which
pledges that the feaeral laws, when re-
sisted by domestic violence, shall not
be enforced without the consent OF the
governor of the state. 1t is the worst
because it is the most dangerous and
most easily accomplished. You cannot
change the character of the supreme
court, nor can you repudiate the debt
of the nation without the concurrent
action of congress, but it is within the
power of the president, in case OF
armed resistance to the laws to destroy
the government by inaction.
The people read the Chicago plat
| form with a feeling of horror akin to
that which swept over the country at
| the firing upon Fort Sumter. Then
party differences were forgotten and
the patriotic people of the union re-
solved that, whatever else might die,
the nation should live. Then the APP
peal to arms was to preserve the union.
Today the appeal is to reason. to pat
riotism and to the ballot to prevent
the disintegration of the nation and to
save it from the dishonor of repudi-
alton.
For the first time in the history OF
this country has a candidate for the
presidency declared that if the federal
laws are resisted by riot and bloodshed
in any state. he will not interfere with
out the con sent OF the governor.
No man can be president OF this
country without first registering ar
oath that he will support the consti
tuition and faithfully discharge the
duties w Mich it imposes upon him. A
pledge rnade by a candidate for the
presidency in advance Of his election
not to enforce the laws of congress
withcu t the consent Of the governor 0
the st; tie is a pledge that he will VIC
late h is oath of office. If he does 81
violate his office congress is helples
and '0he people are helpless.
The destruction that can be wrough
by q nerveless and faithless presiden
we already know, for four months fol
lowing the election of 1860 the natio
la,y helpless and dying through the ne
81 ect of the executive to enforce tn
laws. Buchanan refused to take an
steps to prevent the secession of th
southern states But the 4th of Marc
: came at last and with it came the in
mortal Lincoln.
Buchanan based his refusal to az
l. upon the ground that he had no const
tutional power to force the secedin
states. That pernicious doctrine w;
;, shot to death at Gettysburg and burie
forever at Appomattox. In the Oh
cago platform we have new inyentiC
by which notification and secessic
are made easy.
l. Fellow citizens a graver crisis new
IT confronted the country than the cris
which confronts it now. In 1861 v
met the crisis successfully with u
.e sword; in 1896, under the leadership
Mckinley and Hobart we will meet
~ successfully with the ballot.
