statement; but the thinking reader will draw many inferences from it. In the first place the correspondent, if a dsmocrat, must be very conscientious person or he would not have hesitated to multiply that enthusiastic eight many Hines over. Why he should have epproximated as he did in the use of the word, about" is not evident. He certainly ought to have been able to ascertain with definiteness whether there were only seven or maybe nine. His generality on the subject of the real number of enthusiasts reminds one of the uncertainty and doubt which beclouded the mind of an Ohio farmer boy who was sent out to the barn lot to gather statistics regarding the hogs. How many?" asked his father wheI. he returned. Seventeen" replied the boy, but there was one little runty devil run around so fast I couldn't count him exactly"
 Another striking inference to be drawn from the Glendale correspond ent's report is that those eight must have been highly charged with en- thusiasm. otherwise they would not have incurred the expense of a special train to Glendale A handcar would have been cheaper than a whole box car. It is difficult to cultivate en- thuSiasm in so small a number, so that one naturally wonders what the emotion would have been if there had been more of them. But the chief glory of that Glendale rally crowns the correspondent. His reputation for truthfulness and the nearest apprcxi- nation to accuracy is assured.

AT GORDON'S GRAVE.
Kitchener's Army Took Part in g
 Long Delayed Funeral Ceremony.

The day after the battle of Omdur- man, General Kitchener with an escort and body of troops, went across the river to Khartoum to do honor to the name of the illustriOus martyred ger.- eral, "Chinese" Gordon. When they re- turned to Omdurman the Union Jack was flying over Gordon's grave. The scene of the death of General Gordon, once fine stone building, now shat tered and crumbled, was the palace" at Khartoum, formerly the seat of gov ernment of the Soudan. Here Gordon was slain as he stood at the top of the stairway confronting a wild mob of the Mahdi's followers. The first one of them to reach the top pierced Cor don through and through.
 General Kitchener had planned the ceremonies in honor of Gordon with fine soldierly appreciation of what was fitting under the circumstances. De- tachments of all the British and Egyp- tian regiments were drawn up in firing lines around three sides of quad rangle, facing the front of the ruined palace, the blacks on the right. the British cn the left.

DEMOCRATIC pOW.WOW.
Glendale peoplc Have to Stand an
 Hours Annoyance.

Glendale, AriZ., Oct. S.-(Special Correspondence of The Republican.)- The Knights Of Misrule organized a club here last night. Never since ghosts did squeak and gibber :n Roman streets" was the air so filled with poTtents. The public mind was bent nigh to breaking with suppressed excitement A large crowd attended the ceremonies, but that is explainable by the peculiar fact that for diversion and relaxation of mind republicans prefer a democratic meeting to any thing else in the world of comedy. Tom Smith conducted the services in his usual impressive and debonair manner, ably assisted by a tamale man on the other side of the grounds. Judge Davis was introduced and told what he knew about the mistakes of the republican party, and proved beyond the perad- venture of a doubt that fiction is much more reliable than history. The glee club then sang song with something in it about democrats helping the poor and a mugwump leaning against the brick wall at the back of the stand glanced at the rotund form of the chairman and thought of Cleveland, and guffawed. He was promptly sQuelched by one of General Wilson s speeches, which was immediately hand ed him. Professor Bunch was called forward to read the preamble, which was evidently written in the dark of the moon, in graveyard, with the left hind foot of turkey. The assembled push were then invited to step up and sign the roster, and the movement was accelerated by dummy keg which had with wise forethought been con- spicuously placed at the corner of the platform Under the impression that the crowd needed a sedative, Captain
 Evans was next produced. Very
 touchingly he told how Mckinley had emptied the dinner pails of the people and men with thousand sacks of bar ley in the warehouse began to feel the pending bangs of hunger. He also told his awe-str 4cken auditors how at the Brodie ratification meeting icicles foot long grew on his whiSkers, so far removed was he from the spirit of the mee.ing. The exercises were
 brought to close by a fiery speech from Pedro G. de la Lama, which was vigorously applauded by those who could not understand word of Span ish. The glee club sang another song, the spell was broken and the crowd dispersed. Sic transit. Hic jacet.
 Ike ecker returned from Kansas on Saturday after a years absence. To relieve the loneliness of the trip he
 brought one of the fair daughters of the Sunflower state who will help him
 build home here. We extend con- gratulations and best wishes.
