Two years ago Colonel ]. F.

On the promise of Mark Smith thathc would leave the way clear for him this year the doughty colonel drew out. If Wilson is elected, this year, he will simply be getting his pay for not wrecking the democratic party two years ago.

Prince Henry Left New York For the
Capital at Midnight.

New York, Feb. 24-Prince Henry
Sunday night attended a reception
given in his honor by the Deutscher
Verein at the club house of the organic
alton. He was escorted through the
street from the deck where the Hohen-
ron A of the national guard, and, at
tended by his suite, Rear Admiral Won
Baudissin and his officers and other
guests. All the party were in carriages,
while at the head of the line rode a de-
tachment of mounted police. In the
princes carriage rode Rear Admiral
Evans and Assistant Secretary of State
Hill.
On reaching the club house the prince
was received by President Rudolph
Keppler and Vice President Otto T.
SCHUYLER. He was ushered into the re-
ception room, where were gathered 260
members of the club, with nearly as
many more members of their families.
The club rooms were handsomely dec
Grated with palms, evergreens and cut
flowers, while on one of the walls, on
background of the American colors,
hung a portrait of the German emperor.
AT the special request of Prince Henry,
the club members and their families
We're presented to him. He stood in one
of the rooms with the German ambaS-
sador on his right and President Kepp-
1err on his left. AS the men were pre-
scented the prince bowed and shook
hands with each of the women. The
whole affair was over within half an
hour.
From the club house the prince was
driven to the Twenty-third street ferry
of the Pennsylvania railroad, where he
took the ferry boat Philadelphia for
the depot in Jersey City, en- route to
Washington.

Judge McCabe, that a murder has been
committed, probably by the defendant,
and that he be held without bail"
During all the time taken up in the
case the defendant, who sat behind his
attorneys, never moved a muscle. He
looked through half closed eyes at the
back of Attorney Reefs chair, and wore
look of indifference. He is looking re-
markedly well for man who has been
confined in jail, and was neatly dressed.
A thin crop of red beard shows that he
has not been allowed to use razor, but
his face las a healthy color. Obedient
to the motions of the officer who had
him in charge he walked into the office
after the case was concluded, and stood
with averted eyes while the commit
ment was being prepared. He was not
handcuHed and when he was marched
back to Jail, he walked quietly beside
officer Ross. The courtroom was crowd
ed during his trial, and when he was
removed he had to run the gauntlet of
people in the halls who made 'unpleas-
ant remarks, soto voce, but there was
no demonstration of violence.
