CAMDEN SUSPECTS ARRESTED
Two Held For Numerous Robberies
Committed In New Jersey.

Commltted IN new Jersey
Camden, N. J.. Dec 14.-Two con-
stables arrested two men in the Penn
sylvania Railroad yards at Bordentown
on suspicion of being connected with
the gang of five robbers who late on
Friday night and Saturday morning
terrorized the citizens of PavOnia, in
East Camden. The men gave their
names as John Gaffney, of Ireland, and
Hugh Phillips, of Philadelphia. Each
denies that he had any connection with
the robberies committed on the east
side of this city.
The desperadOes early Saturday held
up a couple of bridgekeepers, cracked
the safe of the Pennsylvania railroad
station at PavOnia, made the engineer
and fireman Of a drill engine move on,
so that they might proceed with their
work; bombaTded a too inquisitive
towerman with pistol shots and finally
got out of town with bullets from po-
licemen's revolvers whistling past theiI
ears.
The Pennsylvania railroad towerman
at Rush Rushing Station, on the Cam
den and Amboy division, four miles
from Trenton, was held up Saturday
night. Three men entered the tower
and at the point of a revolver secured
from James Kinsey, Of Bordentown,
the contents of his pockets, consisting
of only small change The robbers
then made their escape, and Kinsey
sent word to Trenton While a squad
OF police were going toward the tower
they saw three men, who upon the ap-
proach Of the officers took flight. One
of them, Robert Mitchell, who gave his
address as Trenton, was captured and
held on the charge of trespassing on
the railroad. The police have no evil
dence of a more serious charge. 1t is
believed that the men who held up
Kinsey belonged to the band of rob-
bers that operated in East Camden

Washington, Dec. 15.-The news Of
the movement of marines southwark
from Panama, based as it was on the
reported landing of Colombian troops
in that part of the isthmus, was re-

for some time a desire to participate
with the navy in any military move
ments on the Isthmus. The general

General J. Franklin Bell, superinten'

effect that the army is making ready
to do its share at a moments notice.
General Bell was in consultation with
some of the members of the general
staff
There are strong reasons to doubt
the truth of the report that Colon

territory. All previous reports to gov

no Colombian troops either have been
landed or will be landed until after

His Last Hope Realized.

In the first opening of Oklahoms
to settlers in 1889, the editor Of this
paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big rsce
one fine day in April. During his
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim. he encoun-
tered much. bad water, which together
with the severe heat. gave him very
severe diarrhoea which it seemed al
most impossible TO check, and along
in June the case became so bad he ex-
pected to die. One day one OF his
neighbors brought him one small
bottle of Chamberlain Collie. Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope.
a big dose was given him while he
was rolling about ON the ground in
great agony, and in few minutes the
dose was repeated. The good effect
of the medicine was soop noticed and
within an hour the patient WAS taking
his first sound sleep for fortnight.
That one little bottle worked COM
plete cue, and he cannot help but feel
grateful. The season for bowel disor-
ders being at hand suggests this item.

What of the Floods.

The evident trend OF the devastat-
ing waters that are now laying DESC
late the Kansas and Mississippi val
leys. and overwhelming one of the
largest cities of the United States,
with apparently no possible show of
relief, suggests the momentous ques
tion Of the hour. when we consider
the great problem Of irrigation of the
fertile land lying east Of the Rocky
Mountains, and whose waters are now
causing this vast amount of loss of
life. and billion or more of prop
erty.
First, that it would be matter
Of economy for st. Louis and the
country adjacent thereto, as we'll as
all the inundated country that doesn't t
expect to receive benefit by irrigation
direct. suggest that it would be
matter of economy on their part to
construct large reservoirs near the
source Of these various water courses
At their own expense. even as a source
of absolute protection in times of
flood.
Then Oh the other hand as the west
and also our government is deeply in
terested in agitating this subject. that
the government, working with the
west and the drowned middle states
should at once consider the advisa-
biiity Of constructing such reservoirs
as would retard this flood water, and
render it serviceable for irrigating
purposes in time Of need. and prevent
these floods.

RESULT OF DRUNKENNESS.

Playing on his Imagination and tam

correspondent sent out the following in
credible story from Montgomery, this
state:
while hunting in the mountains here
yesterday, Bin Mann, a well known
sporting enthusiast, narrowly escaped be-
ing shot by a rabbit. He had laid his
gun on the ground and stopped to drinl,
from spring, when a concealed rabbit
sprang upon the gun, cooked it, and after
commanding Mann TO throw up his
hands, deliberately fired both barrels at
him. The action Of the rabbits in this
vicinity are most peculiar. One attempt.

was intoxicated, and not the rabbits.

SIGNIFICANT DEMOCRATIC SILENCE

There is scarcely Democrat any.
where who does not believe that President
Roosevelt will be elected next year. They
hear assertions uttered publicly, even in
the halls of congress, where for party
policy they should be rGfuted if at all
possible, and yet there is not the faint.
est denial of them that the country will
give Roosevelt many more electoral votes
than are necessary to elect. These ut.
terances are advanced to the stage where
the states the Republicans will carry
are publicly enumerated, and still the
Democratic leaders are silent. They ap.
pear to have no just grounds for the be.
lief that these utterances win not prove
true, even as to single one among the
column of states that the Republicans
claim even this early in the game.
Doubtless there is reason for Demo.
cratic silence on this subject and there
may be many, but it is passing strange
that they lay down their arms 50 meek
" Among the apparent reasons for this
peculiar and unusual inaction is the fact
that they realize that they have thus far
neither candidates nor principles that
would appeal to the people and which
would stand the scrutiny a campaign
would bring about. OF the several can.
didates who have been suggested there is
none that suits the people or who would
be able to carry any other state than
those carried by Bryan last campaign
and there is deep.rootcd feeling that
none of them would be able to carry even
all the states he carried 50 far as prin.
ciples are concerned, the many factions of
the party are farther apart than they
were when Bryan led them 10 such ig.
nominious defeat on two successive occa-
sions, nor are they likely to agree on that
set Of principles, upon which any man
mentioned thus far for the presidential
nomination could safely go before the
people. Mr.. Cleveland's ideas are 50 diff.
derent from that Of others mentioned
that there would be fruitlcs, attempt
at reconciliation, if he were nominated.
and it would be an intricate matter for
him to adapt himself to principles Of the
party he himself does not hold and with
him nominated on a platform Of princi.
pies he does hold the party itself would
have to be reconciled, before anything
could be accomplished, and that would be
beyond the party's fortitudc. The same
situation is associated with the others
mentioned, and the clouds are really
darker than they have ever been. With
such conditions and others equally dis.
conraging, it is but little wonder there is
silence Of the most painful sort among
Democratic leaders.
