Democratic Chairman Garman will give
no figures, but claims that the party will
make a good showing at the polls.

50 900 votes in Philadelphia alone, and that
he will carry at least twenty counties,
and may have a majority in thirty-seven
Of the sixty-seven counties. He gives
no estimateSof figures for the State.

A sale of Cuban girls has been re-

Rio, where there is a garrison of 400
troops. The soldiers seized a paciflco
camp recently, capturing eight men
and fifteen girls and women. Seven
of the girls, Is to 90 years old, were
put on the block and sold under the
most revolving circumstances to the
highest bidder, the soldiers sacrificing
their arms and equipments to their
more fortunate fellow soldiers for cash
to purchase a girl. One of the ser

contrast with his enemy. Stepping up
to Mr.. Hedley, and without word of
warning, the big man struck him in
the face with his palm. Mr.. Hedley
reeled and fell against the wall of
store. His assailant walked on.
Then everybody said the affair would
end in tragedy. The editor is known
as peaceable citizen generally, but a
desperate man when aroused. Later on
second assault was made. 1t was a
repetition of the first. The big man
krocked his enemy down, and the lat

evidently left him, and still others in

up an agreement by which the men

which has already been given in this

incriminated nor justified Hedley. At
the preliminary hearing 1t developed
that Richards had several times
threatened to kill Hedley. The latter
was admitted to comparativc'v light

work, awaiting the action of the grand
