ELIJAH" SLABS SON
PrOphetMetes Out Punishment
for Use of Cuss Word,

CHICAGO, Oct. John Alexander
Gladstone Dowie. Ii. D., son of the
prophet had his ears boxed publicly
by his reverend father yesterday. The
hery wrath of Elijah II. descended
upon his sons head at a baseball game.
In the excitement of which the young
man had allowed his mortal tongue to
express his mortal thoughts.
Half the population of Zion CITY was
on hand to see the game. Sam Peters
threw to second when he should have
thrown to first.
You ID fool" broke out Elijah Ill
The scandalized spectators fell back.
They could scarcely believe their ears.
The thought of their masters son and
heir using such language was too much.
AS Gladstone walked through the field
the women gathered their skirts about
them. Fathers called their sons to
their sides that they might not become
contaminated by more such dreadful
words. DeaconS and overseers gath
cred and discussed the situation One
thing was certain-the master of Zion
must know. But who should break the
news? Deacon Mills was the speaker:
You. Deacon Hardy, go to our heal
er, and may God give you grace to
break the news gently"
After a word of prayer the appointed
deacon started on a run to find the
master. He found Dowie in the tenn
pie.
Peace to thee, DR.. Dowie!" he pant
ed, but the healer was adding another
crutch to his anatomical junk shop and
needed not the words Of the brother
When the deacon could get a hearing
he tremblingly told the prophet Of his
sons lapse. Like a flash Dowie was off
in his chariot and four for the desc
Grated spot.
Apart from the onlookers stood the
guilty one.
AYE" said the healer to his brother
as they approached the field, my hosts
are obedient unto me. See how they
shrink from the infected one; they will
not be contaminated by him"
Soon the coachman stopped near
young Dowie. The father sprang to the
ground and with his strong hand chas-
tised his son.
May you receive forgiveness from
God, but from me, take that! and that!
and that! and that" he said, as his
sons head shook beneath the blows.

NEW YoRK's uNco euID.

George B. Mcclellan will very GER
tainly be elected mayor of New York If
Edward M. Grout and Charles D.
Fornes have the strength of mind neces-
sary to restrain them from listening
to the clamors of the hypocritical
crowd that is quite willing to accept
them as candidates if they will help to
elect Seth Low again. And it appears
to be certain that Grout and Fornes are
made of the right sort of material to
stand pat
Mcclellan is a clean active man with
a large personal following and pos
sessing the confidence of his political
confreres. He will be opposed by the
factional bosses in Kings county, but
how far that opposition will go, If it
comes to a matter of choosing between
him and the Republicans who are try
ing to retain control of New York city
by using Low and his spineless fell
lows as stalking horses, remains to be
seen.
The real quality of the reform" Lead
ers is shown in their attitude to circuit
and Fornes. They say: Here, we dis
covered you. Stick to Low and us or
we won't play"
If Grout was reformed enough for the
reformers when he was labeled Fusion
ist why is he not good enough now
that he is given the united support of
both the political parties and the Flu
sionists? The Low crowd made no
protest when the Republicans indorsed
Grout and Fornes. That action was d.
rected by Boss Plat and it was most
assuredly a political move. Now Plat
says that if Grout and Fornes accept
the Democratic nomination they must
get off the Fusion ticket.
For truly moral crowd there is al
together too much Plattism about Low
and his followers. They care nothing
at all about New York and it's morals
except in the case Of the few men who
really believe that nom partisan politics
is practicable and makes for the good OF
the people. Grout and Fornes were
quite good enough for them as long as
they were labeled Fusion and could be
used as assistant Republicans. But
they will not do If labeled Fusion and
Democrat.
There is that about the New York Flu
sionist which is calculated to make q
man go find a party that is to his liking
and stick to it.

CAMP YOUNG. WEST POINT, KY,
Oct. 2.-The lateness of the arrival OF
the portions of several of the militia regi-

today's programme after the troops had
taken the field. Instead of spending the

A TERRIBLE IEssoN.

A terrible and pathetic confirmation
of the statements which The Glob e
has been making about the rate of
speed of the street railway cars In this
city was had on Thursday, when a
human life paid the penalty We do
not wish to appeal to any hot public
feeling or to do injustice to the corpo-
ration concerned. We doubt whether,
In this particular instance, 1t was
guilty of any greater carelessness or
oversight than attaches to it every
hour of every day in the year. We do
not suppose that, under the conditions
of operation which 1t follows, such an
accident was even avoidable. Yet here
stands the pitiful fact
A young life is crushed out in an in
slant. The frightful penalty is paid
by this boy, to whom death came with
out hint of warning. The whole terri
BILE occurrence appears to be trace
able directly not to negligence on the
part of the victim or of any employee of
the company, but to the improper,
reckless and dangerous rate of speed
at which the electric cars run through
the busiest parts of this city. How
many lives must be sacrificed before a
stop is put to this?
The Glob e has urged correction
of the abuse thus far without effect.
1t regrets to have the moral that it
tried to draw traced by the bloody
finger of fate. Yet that will happen
again and again. and yet again, until
the city authorities insist upon en-
forcing the terms Of ordinances and
upon a proper regulation Of the speed
Of our electric cars. How many lives
must be forfeited before the public re-
ceives the protection to which 1t is en-
titled, and which can be given with
out interfering in the slightest partic-
ular with the legitimate operation of
electric cars upon our public streets?

THE EXPENSE ACCOUNT OF
PEASE

Brother Dare, of the Elk River Star
News, wants to know what it cost the
Union man to visit the state fair.
Something like sixteen, but If he had
met Brother D. 1t would have cost from
a quarter to half more-for soft
drinks. Items: Hotel, $3.50; meals,
$3.50; car fare. 20 cents; cigars, 81;
admissions, $2.05; treats, $3.50; balloon,
10 cents; peanuts, 10 cents; buttermilk.
20 cents; fruit, 20 cents; shines, 80
cents; gum, Is cents.-Anoka Union.
The outer barbarian may not be aware
of it, but Granville S. Pease, some
times referred to by the disrespectful
as Granny" Pease, insurgent- large
in his attitude toward the state adj
ministration, the tobasco sauce of the
State Editorial association, is the
party who incurred the alleged ex-
penses. He acknowledges it in his ca
pacity as editor-i chief and other
wise of the Anoka Union. He ought to
be made prove it.
There is no disposition on the part of
I e G 10 b e to quarrel with Pease, of
Anoka. about his riotous method of
living, but 1t is due to the associates
of Pease in the editorial association to
demand an explanation of that item
about treats. $3.50.
The standing of Pease, of Anoka, in
this state precludes the supposition
that will occur to the unrighteous that
by Greats" he confesses to dalliance
with the demon rum. It is equally out
Of the question to suggest that Pease
invested on behalf of himself and
friends IN seventy-two drinks of red
lemonade. There is that about the pa
triarchal Pease which makes one shud-
der at the thought Of lemonade. Those
whiskeTs which have stood on end in
indignant protest against the wrongs
imposed upon the people were never
parted to admit of lemonade being
poured through them.
What, then, became of the $3.50? 1t
was spent for treats, according to the
expense account. Is it possible that
Pease, Of Anoka, went about giving the
OeNiiSt VI nppiObdA " llIC OSuOCliyS
highball? Or did he treat the popula-
ton of Anoka-or such portion of it as
was at the fair-to ice cream soda?
1t is plainly up to Pease to explain.
The State Editorial association might
properly take the matter up. And If
he is accused of dalIying. with the de-
mon rim his eOamiec mo " f,1HF Gonna COW

pense account or do some explaining.

LONDON, Oct. 2.-It is understood

The temper of a section of the Union
