eloquent in condemnation Of the

The rejection Of Congressman-elect

Of San Francisco, attempted suicide at
New Orleans Thursday. The woman's
corset saved her life, the knife barely
penetrating aud the man cut his throat

ly days and the chief actor was an old
man dwarfsh in stature and deformed,
who kept q saloon and gambling
honse. He had wonderfully intelli-
gent face and quick, shrewd eyes, and
had only two apparent objects IN life.
One WAS to accumulate money, for 10
was perfect miser, and handy man
at all games of cards, and the other
was watchful and tender solicitude
for the welfare Of his daughter, the
only being for whom he ever showed
any respect or affection. She was
beautiful girl, bright and intelligent,
and apparently she loved the crooked
old miser.
The story went that she was his on
ly child, and that he had cone West
to make a fortune in order that when
she grew to womanhood she might
live like lady in the States.
The girl was about seventeen, and
was so carefully guarded that she was
disconteDted, and used to have sly
firtations with cowboys and other
hangers-on at the camp, which would
have: ended in murder had the old
man discovered them. While he was Ct
the card table she was chattering at
the rear of her tent with one Of her
many lovers. And one night she
eIoped.
The old man used to gamble all night
and sleep all day, and when he awoke
one afternoon from his slumbers he
detected her absence. A cowboy named
Bunny" was also missing, and the
old man. by making inquiries, discov-
cred that they had been seen togeth.
er during the previous evening. He
crawled through the town like Wild
cat, and borrowing horse, buckled
his revolver belt around him and
started across the prairie toward the
ranch where Bunny" was employed.
The next day he returned to New.
ton. but sold out his traps and disap-
peared forever.
Two days later travellers along the
road reported that they had found in
an abandoned mud hut near the riY-
er two corpses, those Of q beautiful;
girl and a stalwart young man. They
were on their knees, their right hands
were clasped, and prayer book, coy
cred with blood, lay on the floor be
side them. The old man had discov-
cred the betrayal Of his daughter by
Bunny" had married them himself
and then shot them both through the
heart.

ment of this man at the ballot
box.
SIN spite of all this fatal er-
TOR, I am not willing to believe
evil things of the president. I
cordially like the man. think
he is misled and mistaken, but
not untrue. He has done much
that is good and kind and wise
and conservative to be con-
demned for a single sin. His
original impulses and his orr
ginal judgment are nearly
always right. 1t is evident to
any observant man that the evil
forces which, holding the strong
and noble cord of his gratitude
for services past requital, have
acquired a leadership in his ad-
ministrati On, are leading and
misleading him here. He has
been made to believe that the
great issue on which he has
fought and won his political
career is vitality at stake IN this
matter, and to let go now is to
imperil the structure that is
woven with his CONVICTIONS
with his fame and his position.
He has been persuaded that to
weaken in the front of this
clamor is to invite destruction,
and that he must go forward
resolutely and retrace his steps
afterward by another way.
