ELECTION "REMINISCENCES.
A Correspondent Recalls Some
Occurrences of the Campaign.

DALION, NY, DeC. 4, logo.
EDITOR BEE:
The smoke of the late holly con-
tested campaign is clearing up, and
since we are permitted to "view the
landscape Ger" there are many
things both amusing and interest
ing.
We in this neck of the woods
hope to be able to share some of
the prosperity that the pending
administration is sure to bring to
the country at large. Mills run
ming, factories will soon start up
with a call for many hands at fair
wages, and gold circulating freely
and concurrently with paper and
silver. Some of our most ardent
free silver advocates have already
admitted that a great revival in
business is taking place, and that
perhaps McKinley's election was
best after all.
We learn that two Of the cross
road orators of Madisonville are
suffering from sore throat since
the campaign. This is not to be
wondered at if their labors were
half as exhaustive elsewhere as
here. The one whose name might
be mistaken for that of an ancient
wise man was here on a big occa-
sion just before the election, and if
reports are true, some of the free
silver boys arranged whistle by
which the sound Of his own voice
echoed back cheers which urged
him on and on till he became so
wild as to forget himself and IN a
personal manner made mention of
some citizens here that were absent
at the time.
The most probable cause OF the
other distinguished gentleman's
throat trouble is the position he
occupied on the day Mr., Cation,
OF Chicago, made his speech here.
He was on an upper floor Of a to.
bacco house and the dust rising
from the cheering below was GER
tainly hard on his throat and lungs.
The people Of this place are inter
ested in the speedy recovery OF these
gentlemen for they will at least
stand as local monuments of a
lost cause.

self we may turn over to the back
OF the paper and read, among the
advertisements, Of a house to let at
the corner of Great Cumberland
street, which commands a view not
only OF Hyde Park aud Kensington
Gardens, but of the 'Surry Hills.
The particulars OF the houses ad-
vertised for sale or lease, many oil
them in the hands of Mr.. Christie,
the auctioneer, at h;s great room
in Pail Mall, contain much matter
oil interest for the political econo-
mist and the antiquary. Patent
pills and drops give familiar ap-
pearance to the pages of miscel
laneous advertisements; but there
are others which have much anti
quarian interest. English and Irisb
state lotteries are a thing Of the
past; and we doubt whether the
owner OF rattlesnake, between
nine and ten feet long, whose bite
is attended with immediate disso-
luton, would be permitted IN these
days to 'attend'--prcsumably with
the snake amy lady or gentleman
desirous at their own houses.
These advertisements fill the
outside Of the paper, which con-
sists OF single four-page sheet.
1t is numbered 1856, and its price
when originally issued was AID.
1t now costs penny--the first copy
of the Times ever sold for that coin.
Imperfections in the type will be
noticed here and there, These, OF
course, are exactly reproduced from
the original, IN which they are due,
partly, no doubt, to the wear of
hundred years, and partly, it may
be, to original deficiencies in the
type."

POINTS FOR LOVERS.

An English paper furnishes the
following notices for engaged girls.
The notices were the result Of a
prize competition, and the one
which took the prize heads the list:
Find in the husband what you
found in the lover.
Exact attentions, but show your
appreciation of them.
If your lover wants to stray,
He is better far away.
Be discreet, not too sweet.
Jealous never, trusting ever.
Who by love gains, by love re-
tains.
When two are of one mind much
can be done.
Never pretend to be better or
more charming than your are in
reality, for though artifice may
catch love, only truth and honesty
can keep it.
Care for your lover as much as
you please. but do not be always
telling him so-the best men are
better for an occasional doubt.
Patience is loves right hand.
Love is mortal and can die OF a
surfeit as we'll as consumption.
He may call you an angel, but
it is the woman IN you he loves.
Don't quarrel, but if you do, pull
down the blinds first.

CYCLOTDAL RAILWAY
Adoption And Improve
ment of the Ferris
Wheel.
A WORKMAN WHILE OUT OF A JOB
Devises an Amusement
Wheel Which Both Re-
wolves and Travels
AROUND AN ELEVATED TRACK

A very novel and striking in
vention is the result OF the indus
try of Kensington workingman
who was out of employment, and
who while his hands were idle
kept his thoughts busy, so says the
Philadelphia correspondent to the
National Recorder. AS result,
he evolved something which prom
ises to rival what at one time was
thought to be the greatest novelty
Of the age.
The man whose idea has just
taken tangible form worked in
one of the Kensington mills.
When hard times came and work
was slack the mill was turned over
to the Local Committee as store
house for goods intended to re-
lieve the suffering poor people of
the neighborhood. But all the
time an idea that he had was taxi
ing practical shape. He went to
work on model which he knew
would beat the famous Ferris
wheel, and he has succeeded. In
stead of merely having a wheel
which would take hundreds on a
trip from the earth to the sky, he
wanted wheel which, while re-
volvlng, would travel around a
track, and thus give those who
wish to soar to higher planes an
opportunity to get bird's-eye view
of the surrounding country from
every point of the compass. All
his hopes have been realized, and
there is apparently no limit to the
height, either of the wheel itself or
the track on whic.f it must travel.
The device is new one, and is
covered by three patents in this
country, the first of which is dated
Sept. I6 last. The whole thing is
called cycloidal railway, and its
construction is not at all compli-
Gated. 1t combines the revolving
cars OF the Ferris wheel with the
progressive movement OF a trolley
car, a combination which has
never before been attempted, sue
cessfully or otherwise.
Wheels of large diameter are
placed upon track and propelled
by electricity. From the rims of
the wheels a number of cars are
suspended, and in these passen-
gers can enjoy an exceedingly
novel and sensational ride without
any risk whateYer. A motorman
will be stationed in the centre of
the wheel, and he can stop, start,
or reverse the wheel or cars at will
Immediately. Electric lights cover
the sides OF the wheel and make it
a pretty sight at night.
While showing the model in
working order, the man who is re-
sponsible for having brought the
invention out, G. Schmidtdeclared
that the plan could be so changed
as to have wheel hundred or
more feet il diameter on perfectly
safe track at almost any height,
the only thing to be considered
being the cost of construction.
This novelty will be one OF the
attractions at TIE Nashville Expo
sition next year.

sAToLLrs LETTER TO IRELAND.

Washington, Dec. 3.-For some
time there has been periodically
published dispatches pretending
to come from Rome and from
other points. indicating proposed
action on the part Of the Holy See
in regard to Archbishops, and es-
pecially touching the faculty Of the
Catholic University at Washing
ton. All sorts Of reprimands, re-
movals and even degradations
were promised and the names OF
the recipients Of such favors were
given. These reports have natur-
ally annoyed those who hold the
highest places in the Catholic
hierarchy in America, and could
not fail 10 create displeasure in the
mind even OF the Pope himself.
Their effect on the Pope is mani
tested ir the following cablegram
received from the Papal Secretary
OF State by the Apostolic Delegate,
which needs no explanation nor
comment:
"Rome, Dec. 3, 1896. Mon
signor Martinelli, Delegate, Apos-
tolic, Washington: The Holy
Father has learned with great sor-
row of the agitation created IN the
United States by pretended cor
respondents and kilograms from
Rome, announcing measures soon

Ican prelates and distinguished

sity. Your excellency will author

which are the product Of reprchen-
sible maneuverings.

In this conneci. IN it is interest
ing to reproduce TIE letter on this
subject written on November 5th
by Cardinal Satolli to Archbishop
Ireland and first published in St.
Paul dispatch of November 2I.
That part OF the letter pertain.
ing to this matter is as follows:
ri arrived IN Rome on Satur-
day, October 81, and the day fol-
lowing, Sunday, had the extreme
pleasure of being admitted to an
audience with the Holy Father.
MANY things were discussed in
the audience. | wish at once to
tell you that did not fail to speak
at length to the Holy Father Of
yourself, and to narrate to him
how sincerely and Loyalty you are
devoted to the Holy See and to the
person OF the Holy Father himself;
with what great zeal and great
success you labor incessantly in all
things that may be to the advant
age of the Catholic Church in the
United States. added that your
zeal and your success will surely
increase in the future"
In another part of the letter Car
dinal Satolli congratulates the
Archbishop on the election of Mr..
Mckinley TO the Presidency, and
assures him that a bright future Is
reserved for Bishop Keane, the
late rector Of the Washington
University.

A CHRISTIAN NATION.
Utterances of Cardinal Gibbons
Upon the Freedom of the
Gospel.

Cardinal Gibbons, in a recent
sermon had this to say Of America
and American institutions.
"There never was any nation or
period Of time when, as now in the
United States, the gospel was so
free. We are not obliged to ask
permission OF the Government or
any minister OF State as to what we
may do. We have the fullest lib
erty OF conscience and the Govern
ment's arm is over us only for pro-
lection, and not in any way to in
terfere with our God-given rights.
The Americans are fundamentally
religious people, and it is alto
gether incorrect to suppose that
they are so deeply absorbed in pol
itics or pleasure, agriculture or com
merce that they become indifferent
to religion. They can not be when
they spend so many millions for it.
In the twenty years following the
Civil War, the Northern States
contributed twenty millions Of dol
lars Tor education1i establishments
Of religious character for the ne
groes, and the five leading denomi-
nations give annually eighty. eight
millions of dollars for home and
foreign missions, all of which is be-
slowed voluntarily and not in any
way extorted. Our people are
naturally intelligent, self.poised,
deliberate and bow in respect to
law. No better proof of this can
be given than the conduct of the
many thousands Of men who, at
the end of the Civil War quietly
laid down their arms and peace
fully resumed civil life, showing
that they were good citizens as
well as brave soldiers.
"Also, at the late election, we
see the same thing. A stranger
would think that bloody revolution
was certainly near when he heard
the denunciation of opponents, and
the predictions of dire disaster
would which followIn certain cases,

Washington, Feb. 10. Late this
afternoon the treasury officials COM
pleted the computation of bids offered
for the new bond issue, from which it
appears that the amount of the bids
above that of J. P. Morgan and his
associates ($110.6877) was $66, 788,
65O,. and that the amount which will
be awarded to the syndicate, there
fore, will be $33, $50, or approx
mately one-third Of the whole issue.
The number of successful bidders ia
ISL. In arriving at this conclusion
the officials have thrown out very few
bids, which were obviously fictitious,
and larger number which were ir-
regular in important particulars.
Some of these bore no signature, and
others did not contain the amount in
tended to be bid for, while still others
omitted the rate. These last, however,
are not supposed to aggregate any con-
siderable sum. The fact that two
thirds of the entire issue are found to
have been at rates ranging above no,
6877 is something Of a surprise to all
who heard the bids announced, but
there is no question Of the accuracy OF
the statements, for all of the bids have

Salem, Or, Feb. 1O.-The annual
report of Brigadier. General Beebe,
submitted to the governor today
through Adjutant- General Tuttle. is an
exhibition of considerable work on the
part of the officials, and indicates that
the details of the military department
are being very closely looked after.
The report shows that the state now
supports 14O officers and 1,554 enlisted
men. The examination list of ques-
tions shows that commissioned officers
must not only be able to make out satis-
factory reports, but shall understand
international law, be posted in COM
pany, regimental and brigade move
ments, and prove masters of important
questions belonging to the school of
the soldier. The report also shows
that of list of eighty.one questions
submitted to the captain of each COM
pany in the state the past year, large
percentage was satisfactorily answered.
The summary indicates an improve
ment in the condition of the companies
as to supplies and drilling facilities
and the manner and regularity OF
drills,
