Not Alarmed at Absence.

The bride and friends of Judge Uric
Sloane expressthemselves as being but
little worried over the latter's absence
from his apartments at the Hartman
hotel, from which place he disappear
ed between l and 2 o'clock on the
morning of July "a.
Although he is saidito have vouch-
safed no informationl to his bride,
formerly Miss Mary Duffy of 3l9 East
Gay street, as to his intended absence,
those who know the Judge say that 1t
Is not at all unusual for him to take
impromptu trips to other cities. It
will be remembered that the elope-
ment of Judge Sloane and Miss Duffy
last May Was the contamination of a
romance which had its beginning
while the former was patient at the
Park View sanitarium, where Miss
Duffy was his nurse.-State Journal.
1t is learned here that Judge Sloane
has been with friends at New Vienna
for several days past.

Judge Uric Sloane, of Columbus
the Ohio war horse, while In Washing
ton, d. c., recently, expressed the
opinion that In order to 60 we'll forei-
fed into the coming campaign, the
Southern Democratic should tell the
Tammany crowd to 60 to the devil
and undertake to run things them
selves. "If the Southern Democracy
has any courage and sagacity 1t will
dominate the next convention" he
declared. "It is time for them to
assert themselves and to quit grovel-
ing at the feet of New York and
supporting any candidate that crowd
may foist upon them. Let them tell
the Eastern gang to 60 to the devil
and that the South, which furnishes
the brains and the votes, will nomi-
nate leader of their own choice.
The Democrats of every Western

with shouts of joyous approval. ]
