THAT WOMAN.
She Was About the Smoothest Article
That Ever Came Down the
Pike.

The woman mentioned exclusively
in yesterdays PALLADIUM as having
swindled the railroad men on a small
scale, was about the smoothest article
on record. The men were badly dis
gusted when they learned the truth,
not over the fact that they had been
induced to produce certain portions of
their worldly wealth, but because
their confidence had been so grossly
abused. One of the men who was bit
ten stated that the story was the most
effective and plausible swindfing story
be had ever heard, that the woman
had broken down and cried real tears
IN relating the tale of her starving
children, and that when she ended the
recital of her woes he himself had a
lump in his throat and was really sorry
she didn't want more money. A num-
Der of the boys, however, got ''cnto''
her game before she left the city and
stood out and waived their hands at
her as she got on number Ii for Indi-
anap lis 1t is to be presumed that
she made a harvest at Indianapolis
among the railroad boys.
She worked railroad men with a
story that she had lost a husband and
son in the service. She caught several
firms in the vicinity of the depot. She
gave her name as Caldwell. and the
charity pass had the name Mrs. Cald-

FoR the comfort of those who enlis
and their mothers, wives and sweet
hearts we quote the following from tn.
st. Louis Globe Democrat. which i.
probably pretty correct guess as te
the nature of the service the boys will
be called on to perform:
The lbs, 900 volunteers called out
will hardly see Cuba before the late
autumn. after the danger of yellow
fever is removed. They will go into
pleasant and salubrious camps in the
south and be thoroughly trained in
company and battal on formations.
The war can not be one of heavy
marching or fighting on land. Per-
haps there are so, 200 Spanish troops
IN Cuba. but they are without lines of
supply, and il is needless to waste
strength in assaulting their fortified
lines. A steady pressure and close
blockade will compel their surrender.
To all appearance our army In this
war will have a comparatively easy
time, and will look back upon il as in
the nature of long encampment.
We will add our opinion TO the
above that not one third of the 125. 900
volunteers will ever be sent outside of
the United States or come within hun
dred IN les of battle. The marches
the boys will have viii, be the merest
picnic compared with those of the
war of the rebellion

THE most noteworthy example of 8
Republican allowing himself to bs
used by Democrats and a sprinkle oil
dissatisfied Republicans to defeat the
fairly nominated candidate of his own
party was that of poor old Horace
Greeley. The fact that he was so
overwhelmingly and ruinously de-
feated showed that the Republican
party was founded on principles and
not on men He was one of the found
ers of the party, loved and revered by
all its members. He had educated
them in the truth that Republicanism
meant something more than mere in
dividual choice of candidates for office,
and it was in vain, at the pitiful close
of his hitherto grand career. he tried
to persuade them to follow him in his
