CLAIM WEST VIRGINIA.
At Democratic Headquarters 1t Is
Declared No Longer Doubtful

Reports from West Virginia. received at
Democratic headquarters. this morning. is
most encouraging. The claim is made that
the State will so for Bryan by an old-time
Democratic majority, and it is no longer
considered in the doubtful column. The
Republicans. it seems are placing their
reliance in carrying the State by coloniz-
ing il with negroes from the District of CO.
lumbia. North Carolina. and Virginia. Just
as was done in 1888 But this year there
is no split in the ranks of the Democracy
and the Gold Democrats are back in line
which thus ensure solid front against the
Republicans, and thus far the scheme of
coIoniZing negro voters has failed.

SOCIETY WOMEN SHOCKED.
Discover q Negro Dancing At White
Peoples Mask Ball-Carried
on the Prise.

Foresters' hall at San Francisco the
other night was the scene of a masked
ball of the Tiburon society, for which
Invitations were issued to a select few.
John Morby was not among the invited.
He bore the patronesses of the affair
no grudge for their oversight, however,
and when he saw negro tramp hang
ing around and observed how graceful
he was, he forthwith asked the colored
gentleman if he would not give the la
dies treat and go to the ball. The
tramp was not proud and he accepted.
With the aid of some excelsior slowed
away under his vest, and an ebony
mask, he made his appearance at the
scene of the festivities. He person
ated" "coon." He sang, he danced,
and he cakewalked, and his "colored
gentleman" airs were SO charmingly
natural that all the ladies followed him
around the hall and declared he was the
best character" present. The COM
mittee agreed with the ladies and
awarded the tramp" the first prize.
Masks were ordered removed at mid
night, and at the first glimpse of his
shiny ebony face the floor was strewn
with gasping maids and hysterical ma
irons. He escaped uninjured.

BLOWS NOSE; EYE POPS OUT.
James H. Finnigan of Cleveland Has
Novel and Painful Expe-
rience.

James Fl. Finnigan, superintendent
Of the shipping department of Sterling,
Welch & Co., at Cleveland, o., has just
had most remarkable experience. The
other evening Finnigan was assisting
in entertaining company at his home on
Melvin street. He took his handker-
chief from his pocket and blew his nose.
Those present were Mortified to see Fin
nigan's left eye pop from its socket and
hang by the ligaments down his cheek.
One young woman tainted.
Finnigan pushed the eye back into
the socket, and in doing so carried the
eyelid in with it. He was blind for the
time being, and the pain was intense. A
physician was called, but he refused to
handle the case. DIR. D. B. Smith was
then summoned. Finpiganwas removed
to the Cleveland general hospital, where
DR.. Smith took the eye out again and re-
placed it properly. Finnigan is now
able to be at work; the eye is bandaged
Finnigan says:
"My physician tells me that will be
able to remove the bandage over my eye
in day or two. take it off once IN
awhile now. I do not dare blow my
nose for fear the eye will pop out
again"
The case among oculists is said to be
one Of the strangest on record.

SMALL CASE, BIG COST.
An Incident which Illustrates the
Expensive Procedure of Matters
Brought Before Government.

Formalities of the government and
the cost involved in doing nothing is il
Illustrated by some official correspond
ence which has just been forwarded to
the house by Secretary Root. An officer
of Massachusetts, volunteer regiment
lost gold watch and $37 in money
while at Montauk Point, N. Y, on his
return from Cuba. The inquiry extends
over the period from October, 1898, to
July, 1899, and has just reached con-
gress.
1t is accompanied by letter of Sec
retary Root, saying the claim for re-
endorsement appears to be meritori-
Gus, but as there is no fund at the dis
posal Of the war department which
could lawfully be used ito reimburse"
the officer for his loss, and inasmuch
as the auditor for the war department
could discover no law to authorize the
settlement of such claims the whole
matter was sent to congress and will
repose in the committee on war claims
The reports show the officer was
robbed by nurse, to whom the prop
erty was intrusted. The inquiry, the
cost of printing the reports as public
document and the other expenses will
amount to over 5000, and yet the officer
| Is not q penny richer.

TROUBLES OF ITS OWN.
Not at Liberty to Raise a Little
Money on the Side.

Even the chance of obtaining little
revenue for its own uses has been de-
MED the naval training station at Yerba
Buena. CAL, where the navy department
recently established barracks and a
drill hall for apprentices on the Pacific
coast. 1t was found large supply OF
fine drinking water could be obtained
on the island from artesian wells, and
it was suggested by Senator Perkins, OF
California, the navy officials could sell
this water to the shipping in the har.
bor.
1t has been found on inquiry, how
ever, the department can sell nothing
and the experience of the authorities
at Mare Island (Cal.) navy Yards re-
called in this connection. They desired
to utilize some of the funds acquired
from raising wheat on the reservation
but it was found impossible to get tht
items on the books of the treasury.
Perhaps some special provision o.
congress Will be invoked to allow thu
naval officers at Yerba Buena TO real
ize something upon their marketable
water,
