Nothing for Sturgeon.

The Washington Evening Times Of
the 18th prints the following
"With quivering lips and broken
heart, G. II. Kemp Sturgeon, colored
politician Of Boston, walked out Of the
white house today.
Gas he stood on the steps of the exc
cutive mansion and recounted his ver-
sion of the treatment he had received
since he came here to push his applica-
tion for any one of the Oonsulates in
the Islands of the Caribbean Sea, he
became intensely dramatic and created
scene by raising his hand and calling
on heaven to witness how Mckinley
and Mark Hanna have deceived him
During the campaign they wrote
me fattering letters to keep up my
work among the Boston colored people,
Sturgeon continued in o high-keyed
voice.
"T spent $500, nearly all I had, for
Mckinley. l received letters at the
time signed mark Hanna" commend
ing my services and promising reward.
Since then | have found out that Hanns
never wrote letter, and that Secre.
tary Dick had signed Hanna's name tc

Hanna's Prudence.

Amazing prudence is one of the lead
ing characteristics of Senator Mark
Hanna, of Ohio.
A year ago, when Mr. Hanna was fry
ing fat among the protected barons and
those who expected protection in the
future, for the purpose of building up
a corruption fund with which to aid in
the election of Mr., Mckinley, he was
not altogether without motive. When
ever he secured donation of a hundred
or thousand dollars, he put aside q
tenth or twentieth of it for rainy day
The money came in so plentifully, and
so implicit was the confidence of its
donors in the portly gentleman who
was engaged in its collection that all
trust was placed in his spending it. He
spread the cash around pretty promis-
cuously through the middle west, and
yet with his accustomed prudence, ht
did not spend more than was necessary
Now Mr.. Hanna Is in the midst OF {
state election upon which his seat il
the senate depends, and the announce
ment is made that he has Q million Of
SO of the old corruption fund left over
which he proposes to apply to the pur
chase of members Of the legislature whC
will vote for his election.
1t may be news to those who contrib
uted the fund that Hanna thought hi
presence equally important with that o
Mckinley, but it is fact, nevertheless
and they will have the satisfaction o
knowing that the prudent gentleman
has kept over a few dollars for a ba'
day.-Atlanta Constitution.

Cat Lived For Five Years in the Hole.

Wilmington, Del, July lex
Mayor Shortledge today released from
wall in his home cat which has lived
within the wall since 1899.
In that year the ex-mayor erected an
annex to his home, its wall being put
hurriedly. For five years Mr.. Short
ledge and his family have heard cal
cries in the house, but until today were
unable to locate them. About a yeal
ago the cries of the cat became so fire..
quent and annoying that, as test. the
ex-mayor killed the family cat, believ'
ing that it was largely responsible fol
the mysterious cries. This, however,
did not solve the mystery, and, after
a great deal of study over the matter
the ex-mayor decided few days age
that the cries came from the one of the
walls OF the annex.
Today he sent for George W. Dorsey
who, with a chisel and hatchet, open
ed the wall. As soon as Mr.. Dorsey
had chiseled hole large enough ca
jumped out. Ex-Mayor Shortledg'
Immediately recognized it as kitten
that disappeared from his household a
the time the annex was built.
The cat, he says, has not grown al
inch, although its appearance show
that it has lived we'll during its Ion.
confinement. Mr.. Shortledge, who i
a physician, will present the cat to tn
Natural Historical Society as a curl

An Underground CITY.

In Galicia, in Austrian Poland, there
is a remarkable underground city which
bears out this description, as it has a
population Of over 1000 men, women
and children, scores of whom have nev-
er seen the light of day. It is known
as the City of the Salt Mines, and is
situated several hundred feet below the
earth's surface. 1t has it's town Hall,
theater and assembly room, as we'll as
beautiful church, decorated with
statues, all being fashioned from the
pure, crystalized salt rock. It has well
graded streets and spacious square,
lighted with electricity. There are nu.
merous instances in this underground
city where not single individual in
three or four successive generations hal
ever seen the sun, or has, any idea o.
how people live in the light of day.

Miss Winnie Dayis Invited.

Chicago, July 17.-Efforts are being
made by the committee in charge of the
Logan Day exercises and the ex-con-
federate association of Chicago to se-
cure the presence of Miss Winnie Da-
Wis, the Daughter. of the COnfederacy, "
at the dedication exercises, which take
place on the 22d. An invitation has
been sent Miss Davis through Miss
Lucy Lee Hill, personal friend, and
ex-world's fair commissioner from Ken
tucky. The formal invitation was fol-
lowed by telegram from Miss illand
others from the ex-conferate association,
urging Miss Davis to come if it was
possible to do SO.
1t is believed that at least 500 men
who fought under the stars and bars
of the confederacy will take part.

G. o. P. Confession of Faith.

There can be no doubt that the re-
publican party is sadly in need of a
clear and exhaustive confession of faith.
Nothing contributes more surely to sue.
cess In politics than the announcement
Of a definite policy in language that
admits Of no quibble as to its meaning.
We are shocked at the criticisms which
are being made by republican journals
on the conduct of the present admins
tration, and can not avoid the conclu-
sion that it is oil occasioned by lack
of understanding on the part of the
critics as to the true attitude of the
party criticised.
What the republican leaders should
do Is to issue declaration of principles,
which document would read as follows:
TO THE MEN WHO VOTE.
We believe in the single gold stand
ard, and will use all our influence to
secure that blessing.
We believe in bimetallism, and will
work night and day to promote the es-
tablishment of the double standard.
We believe in hard money, and will
labor to retire the greenbacks.
We believe in rag money, and will
strive to bring about the establishment
Of state banks.
We believe in a vigorous foreign
policy and the assertion Of American
independence.
We believe in placating Spain, pleas
ing Japan, flattering England and fool
ing Cuba.
We believe in smashing the trusts
and crushing the combines.
We believe that the way to .do up
the trusts is to make them presents of
untold millions through the enactment
of the Dingley tariff,
We believe in Furnishing treason and
in making frauds ON the government
odious.
We believe that the way to punish
those who place the nation in peril
through the furnishing of blow-hole ar
NOR plate is to pay them two prices for
the same.
We believe in protection for revenue;
also for robbery; also for deficit
We believe this is enough for the
present, and will see you later at the
polls.

Clay Evans Stands no Show at All.

Washington, d. c., July 16.-There
has been much pulling of the wires in
the matter of the easter district at
torneyship. Congressman Gibson has
been assured that his candidate, Will
Wright, will get this very desirable
plum, but Commission er Evans is max
ing a last effort to get some recognition
at the hands of the administration
Brownlow is watching the fight with
amused interest. He believes that
Wright will win, though he declares
emphatically that he is holding hands
off as between the two.
Evans is in hot water. 1t seems that
he promised to take no part in the
fight between Charley Evans and Will
liams, both of whom are from the Chat
tanooga congressional district. When
Williams got here he found that COM
missioner pulling for his nephew and
he got very hot. He wired and wrote
his friends back home charging that he
was being given the double cross by Il.
Clay, Now that the fight has got warm
it has been intimated to the commits
sioner that he is much more likely to
score victory if he stands by Williams
than he would by trying to place his
nephew that the administration is
against all that.
Today he wired his leutenants back
home the situation and asked about
Williams. This brought forth series
OF angry protests These gentlemen,
he found, were bitterly opposed to Will
liamsl They advised the commissioner
to land Charley Evans if he could, but
if not to go to Wright rather than to
Williams.
This left the commissioner very much
between the devil and the deep sea.
He can't go to Wright, who is recog-
nized as the Brownlow candidate, de-
spite Brownlow's mild protests that he
is taking no hand in the fight, and he
can't land his nephew. 1t looks now
as if his only chance Of saving anything
from the wreck is to resign and &c
home with his defeated candidates. He
might retain some little prestige thaf
way. It begins to look here as if h'
has been given what the yellow kit

Enthusiastic RsceptIOn Of Bryan.

Salt Lake, Utah, July 16. The Trans
Mississippi Congress was called to order
today, with large audience in the gal
laries and the delegates seats we'll
filled. The large attendance was due
to the fact that Hon. W. J. Bryan,
President Of the Congress, was expect
ed to be present.
When Mr.. Bryan entered the hall
and was greeted with the widest en-
thusiasm, Mr.. Black, of California,
moved that cheers be given for Mr..
Bryan, which the latter said was out oi
order, but the cheers were given never
theless.
Mr.. Bryan, on taking the chair, said
he was fully in accord with the move
ment of the congress, and predicted
great future for the fertile valleys o.
the west.
