There is no need, nor is II wise
or prudent, for any Democrat to
permit calamity howlers and hun
gerry Republicans TO stir up in
his breast and heart q senssless
belief that the estate crowd"
have done anything that is
wrong, dishonest or inefficient.
Fellow Democrats, don't you lis
ten to the rawlings and promises
Of hungry Republicans and for
get yourself 80 far as to 60 off in
their camps, for II they ever get
charge of affairs, they will sup
the cream and give you nothing
not sven thanks. So brace up as
a man and Democrat and fight
Republicanism as you have long
fought it--ss an enemy to every.
thing that Democracy stands Tor.

FAMOUS inn PASSES
Old Three Pigeons, Dear to

House Wac Popular Resort for Pesss

Familiar to Readers Of
Dickens.

Londoa.-One OF the last. II not
actually the last, Of the old Elizabeth
an inns associated with the name OF
Shakespeare and his literary contem'
pcraries, passes away with the closing
Of the famous Three Pigeons at Brent
ford.
Much Of the old.timbered building.
including it, low-earyed and paneled
chambers, disappeared years ago. and
now comes the order Of the Middiesex
licensing justices that the ancient hos
telry must be closed.
The tnu. which was owned BY
Messrs. Chsrrington & Co., wellknown
brewers, has been in occupation up to
the last, and although not In bad
state of repair and having nothing
against Its record. 1t Was decided that
It now had become unnecessary.
When the place actually was built
no one can tell. ut was as old as the
hills" said one Of the district officials.
but we can give no more definite date
than that"
II Is curious how popular the house
seems TO have been with poets and
dramatists Of the Elizabethan era, Sec
ing that the old town appears to have
been always . byword for its dirt and
I'll odors." The town is constantly re-
ferred to by Thomson. Gay. Goldsmith
and others on account Of its dirt. and
It is the subject Of one OF Doctor John
sons most famous gibes.
And yet, whenever Shakespeare and
his friends had nothing better to do,
they seem to have turned their foot
steps westward to Brentford and there
held high revel at the Three Pigeons.
The house was the scene Of some Of
George Peele's Merry Jests." and Ben
Jonson wrote. We'll Tickle 1t at the
Pigeons" -.-..
In Shakespeare's time II was occu-
pied by one John Lowin. one Of the
tragedians who played at the old Globe
theater.
Shakespeare not only refers to the
town Of Brentford in his plays, but
specifically mentions In Q sarcastic
fashion the proprietress Of neighbor.

The house also is referred to In But.

The characteristic hypocrisy OF
the Republican party was again
demonstrated in st. Louis at the
special election last week. Negro
aggregation was the issue. .~"he
negroes, of course, were opposed
to 1t. They didn't want to be
aggregated. Naturally, they ap.
pesled to the Republican party
tos help. The negroes have been
carrying st. Louis for the Re-
publican party by big and con.
stantly growing msjorities. They
had Q right to expect the Rspub-
lican politicians to help them.
But what did they get? The big
Republican wards went down the
line against the negroes. Even
Mayor Kisl's own precinct went
overwhelmingly against them.
They we're beaten throughout
the city by . vote OF three to one.
They deserved defeat, For years
the Republican politicians have
bsep riding into Office on the
negro vote. There wouldn't be
any Republican party today but
Tor the nsgro vote, "Mister
Niggsr." We hops you have
learned your lesson well,

Wonder why the Republicans
ever took their State Convention
to Excelsior Springs, Clay coun.
ty, Missouri? Why, old Clay
county is 8 to 1 Democratic. Il
was a shame to spurn the few
little Republican counties where
they know nothing but vote the
Republican ticket. Let US see
"Liy" Morse lives in Clay county
and he's some Republican boss.
Oh, yes, it's plain. The bosses
still dictate In the Republicans

four hours of heated debate allowed
under the rule for congressman to
explain their position. Previously two
test votes had been taken, the first
one to prevent the McLemore resolu-
ton from being amended, was carried
by the administratio forces by 256 ia
1876, and on adopting the rule to limit
debate motion to table was carried
by vote of 27l to 1873.
The full house session today lasted
seven hours, and nothing as exciting
has been seen in the capitol since the
declaration Of the Spanish war. The
votes were rot strictly on party lines,

PAINFULLY INJURED
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Mobile, Ala, March THE big
Burgess-Dunne aeroplane from the
Pensacola aviation station, was prac-
tically demolished here today and
Lieut.. Mcdonald, the aviator, was
painfully injured and his escape from
instant death was nothing short of a
miracle. The flying machine is the
largest owned by the navy, and was
one of the two which came over from
Pensacola Sunday to make flights
during Mardi Gras here.
Lieut.. Mcdonald intended making a
flight for the benefit of the people
here and started his motor and was
in the act of ascending when a sharp
gust of wind caught the flying ma
chine when it was twenty or thirty
feet up, driving the aeroplane against
the rigging and mizzenmast Of a
schooner at anchor in the harbor.
The machine went headlong into the
schooner and fell to the deck, .
crumpled mass, while Lieut.. McDon-
