TUKlnOHIIlTION AMENDMENT.
Alices fiotn Harrisburg lenya little
room for doubt that both branches of tlio
LosUlaturo will again adopt the Prohibi
tion amendment to the Constitution, and
proTldo for Its submission to a rote of the
people at a special election to bo held In the
arly part of tho summer.
In order to submit tho Prohibition
amendment 'to the people tlilsyoir, It will
bo necessary for both branches of the
Legislature to again paes the proposed
amendment without an; change whatever
and to declare by law when It shall be
submitted to the people. The text of the
amendment must be advertised In full In
very county of the State for three months
prior to the election; and It may be sub
laltted tcf the people either at a special
election May or June, or say In September
or October after harvest t(me, or at the
regular November election, as the Lejls
lature shall decide.
The special friends of the Prohibition
amondment are Importunate In the demand
for a special election to decide the Issue,
and their wishes are llkeh to prevail. Thev
arguo that even at an unimportant general
election there would be more or less polltl
cal entanglements, and tho want an elec
tlon at which the people will have no other
question to consider or act u on than that
of Prohibition. A majority of the votes
cast at'such election will adopt or rejto
the proposed Prohibition amendment. If
adopted, an extra seeslon of the Legislature
would be a necessity to enact laws (or the
enforcement of the new Constitute) proyis
Ion, If rejected, uo new Problblton amend
ment, cr any other amendment, could be
proposed for five years.
The proposed amendment Is a radical
prohibitory measure. It absolutely pro
hibits the manufacture or sale of all intoxl
eating liquors as a beverage, which In
c'.udcs beer and wines .of all grades, and
directs the Legislature to provide by law foi
the punishment of those who shall dlsre
Card Its. mandate. It adopted by the people.
all manufacture and sale or tarfflc of an.
kind In liquors, beer or wines as a beverage,
would summarily cease upon the olllcia
declaration of the popular approval of the
measure, and there would be no restitution
to owner of property that may be madi
valueless by tho charge. Licenses grantee
for a period bejond the dato Of tho opera
tlon of the prohibitory amendment would
terminate at once, as the amendment, a
adopted by tho last Legislature, would g.
Into Immediate effect upon Its approval b)
the people. Phlla. Times,
Anthonv Hiuoiks is not a deauti
tlful name, but the Senator-elect from Del.
aware who bears the unpretentious and un
attractive cognomen Is a man of intelligent
and: ability; a Republican, not for partlsai
purposes, but because ho believes In thai
party. He Is free from party cliques ant
rlngs.aud will go to the Senate unfettcret
with .promises. In the new field of labor
he will find ample scope for his cxtcnslvi
capabilities.

WAIXACE TO LEAD HIS PA11TY.
There Is a story afloat that Scott's dis
appearance as Democratic leader In this
State is to bo followed at the proper time
by the reappearance of 'Wallace to take
command and fight It out with Randall
and all comers. At '.be same time it Is truo
that Wallace has no better opinion of
Cleveland than Randall, or Scott, either
for that matter for It should be under
stood that the sage of Erie has come to the
conclusion that tho President is a (treat
deal of a failure, which Is one reason he so
suddenly dropped out, In addition, It can
be said that since the election no loye has
been lost between Cleveland and Scott.
It Is of course known.that Between Randall
and ll'allace tho old quarrel has never been
declared off and Wallace's reappearance
will bo the signal fot Its renewal, unless
Randall backs down, which would be un
like him. Pittsburg Times.
BROADBRIM Y. LETTER.
New Tear is over, thank Providence,
and Christmas too, which Is Irreverently
called a "chestnut." ll'o can now safely
sit down to count the cost, foot the bills
and gaze upon the ruins Had a good
time? Oh, yes, firstrate time and no mis
take; splendid time, haven't had such a
Christmas for years. Aunt Phoebe sent me
a pen-wiper, and Cousin Mary a pillowcase
full ot dried apples, and Uncle Joe a
horse-sboe tied with rlobons that ho took
utt Aunt Jane's old summer bonnet; Mrs.
Fllkins sent me a tidy, and our initiator's
wife sent me a Christmas card, and m
niece sent me a nice plated thimble, oh, 1
can't tell you all I got. Did you make any
presents Ibis year? Wel , yes we bad to
You see, you can't help it, when folks
remember you. Aunt Phonbe said they
didn't expect anything from us this year a?
we had so many to give to; but If we did
send an r thing, Susie would like a new silk
dress, but she hoped that we wouldn't gel
.tnythlng expensive; and that Johnn-
hadn't had a new suit of clothes for over a
ear, and if It was not asking too much we
night just throw In. an overcoat and a pair
of rubber boots. Aunt Phoebe said Unit
she didn't want anything for herself or
Uncle William, but her wrap was looking
so awful shabby that she felt quite ashamed
to call on U9. And Uncle William hadn't
had a new overcoat since, our centennial.
The minister's wife thought that if we sent
-tnythlng for her husband, a handsome rug
or a rocking chair would be better tnan a
dressing gown or slippers, as he had not
worn seycral of those which he bad cot
last year. Everybody had to get some
thing. Merc- on us I I can't tell wlieie
all the money went to, The week befoic
Christmas John drew a hundred dollar
nut of tho Savings Bank and by Monday,
Christmas Eve, every cent of it was gone,
and he had to go down and get forty moie
to make the thing go around. It's fear
fully expensive, but I'm awful glad it's all
over.
Each year the necessities forced upon us
b these bollda.- s become moro oppressive
and burdensome. No ono dcsiies to be

A novel case occurred here this week In
i lie discovery of a blooming damsel ot
elghlcn who has three loving husbands,
and all of them lawfully married to her,
and to-day she could lawfulh sue every
one of them for non-support, and If they
bad any money she could make them pa
the piper. She met her fate In Brookl u
while she was sorting rags on an old ash
dump, and her Cupid was a p-ddler in the
rag business. When he saw how deftly she
did her work, he saw visions of prsspecthe
wealth In the alliance, and he offered her
his hand mil cart. She accepted. A new
five-cent calico completed tho wedding
trosseau.and repairing at once to tbe resi
dence of the Rev. Mr. IHilte, who Is the
outbful lover's friend, and who takes an -thing
from a bam sandwich to a pottace
stamp for tying the nuptial knot. Mr
H'hlte, in less time than it takes to record
it, had made two one as fast as bell, book,
and candle could do it, minus the bell and
candle. Three days of wedded bliss satis
fled Mr. Frederick Welsso that he had
made a slight mistake, so he gave Mrs.
Frederick Welsse a lambasting and left her;
tbe then went to Connecticut, and there
she found' her second flame; he was only
eighteen years of age, and of no particular
account at that. A week sufllced for the
courtship, and she enteied into the pro
piietorshlp of husband number two. After
a month of unqualified happiness, except
that be used to Vat hir rvsry ntftht, and
sometimes lu the mornings and afternoons,
be, loo fled and returned no moro. Sho
was not inconsolable, for she was young
anil good-looking, not yot being quite eigh
teen. She returned to her mother's home
In Brooklyn, and soon mel number three.
She frankly told hi in of her unfortunate
ventures, but ho said If she would skip
over to Jersey bo'd take her fot bolter or
worse. So to Jersey the repaired, and for
the third time she changed bar name.
Number three worried out for nearly four
months, when he, too, succumbed to fate.
And now comes tho wonderful part of the
story. This girl, born and brought up In
Brooklyn, reaching tho age of eighteen
tears, never knew or thought there was
anything wrong in taking as many hus
bands as sho pleased. She could nelthei
read nor write; sho did not know a lcttor
In the alphabet, or a number in the
calendar. From her childhood she bad
been forced on the streets by dissolute
parents, and she grew to womanhood,
scarcely ever hearing tho name of God ex
cept It wcro uttered profalnoly. What
chance had she In life? what wonder that
she fell? Only the other day we sent off
twelve missionaries to tbe Congo; why nut
save our benighted heathen here? Fortu
nately for uo-slie has committed no offence
against our laws, here, for sho only married
one husband in New York; and sho com
mitted no breach of the law in New Jersey ,
for she only man led one husband there,
and the same lc Connecticut, Queer case,
Isn't It? Eighteen, three husbamUl all O.

Doctor McDonald, ono of the best-knowp
physician lu New York, who fur the past
twenty years has been In charge of the In
sane asylum on Ward's Island, has been de
dared insane himself, and is now under
the care of his foi,,.:: assistants In that in
stltutlou. No sadder case of Intellectual
u lu have I had to record for many n day
Dr. .McDonald was considered one of tin
foremost cxnerts In Insanity In the United
States. On the Qultau trial he was one of
tho experts on behalf of the Ur.lted Stales
who gave an opinion as to the prisoner s
piisoncr's sanity. It Is no sudden calami
ly. It has been coming on for years, and
It Is with grief unspeakable that his numer
ous friends have noted for years his gradual
ilecav, till at last ho Is confined in the
asylum of which for twenty years he wa
the supreme director.
This week Paul Bauer died at the Bloom
ingdale Asylum, who was the prunrlctor of
the great Casino at Coney Island. Arriv
ing in-tbls countn some years ttgo pennl
less, he became n waiter in n low saloon.
At tbooutbieak of the war he entered the
army and served In tho dragoons. The
war being ended he again became a waiter.
and eventually started a cheap restaurant
of his own. He tried a venture in low con
ctrt halls and made moner. At last be
r 'ached Coney Island just as that summer
resoit of the millions was blossoming Into
Its neW life; wealth rolled in upon him,
and in addition to bis other ventures he
became partner In a race-course and a
gambling house, He was warned to stop
gambling on his premises; but ho was rich,
lie had a strong political pull and defied tho
1 iw. To his great surprise, he was arrested
ono day lu his magnificent hotel, dragged
Info Court, tried by men who bad hob
nobbed with him at his bar, and was
sentenced to the penitentiary by a judge
who bad drank his lager and champagne,
smoked his finest cigars and fea9ted on his
Frankfurt sausages and Switzer Ease
They look him to prison, cropped his head,
dressed hlin In bed ticking and Set him to
sweeping out the prison yard. Tho strain
was too much for him, his mind broke,
and shortly after his counsel secured an
appeal and he came out of prison on bail
He was nev r again trlod, but his mind
was gone, flu possessed at the lime of his
discharge about two hundred thousand
d dlars. In less than six months he had
got rid of a hundred thousand, then at tl e
request of bis friends the Courts intervened
and be was placed In the Bloomingdale
Asylum, and last week his eventful life
was brought to a dark and sorrowful
close.
no was a fair example of the possibilitli s
if our country; coming hero in poverty, lie
rose to affluence, and power berond hl
wildest dream, but instead of being grate
ful to the land which had helped him fron
bis low estate he became a persistent vlo
later of the law, and trusted to his money
to secure biro immunity from punishment.
He counted without his host, he mistooi
the Institutions and tho people among whom
he was living; in seeking to evade the law
lie effected his own ruin, and at an age
when moit men arnetljo- Ing the success r f
life, he perishes miserable In a mad house
i ho victim of his own ill-directed ambition
and folly.
The beautiful weather of the past ten

CHAIRMAN KISNrcn ItK-KLKOTED.
Chairman Klsnor was Wednesday re
elected by tbe members of tho Democratic
State committee without any trouble, Tl.o
delegate from P t sburg, who catno reached
Harrisburg Tuesday afternoon, headed by
Patrlo Foley, to elect William J. Bronnen
of Allegheny county, boasted that tho
present chairman would not bo re-elected.
Thny wero determined to hayo rovengo orf
account of tne treatment they received last
year, when their enemies were admitted to
seats In thn Democi a ,lo State Convention .
Marshal IFrlght, of Lehigh, gave litem
some encouragement by slating that ho was
opposed to Eisner becauso he had no con
fidence In a campaign conducted with cir
culars, but ever Wright voted against am
chango of the leadership of tho party. Mr.
iiiii'Ki'usiuui, one 01 ine memocrs irom Al
legheny county, aroused the indignotlon of
his fellow-members from that county by
voting for Kisuer, and threats were made
that he would politically Miffer for his al
eged tteachery. H'llllam J. Brennen re
ceived but three votes ngainU thirty nine
for Eisner, who, in response to calls, made
a neat speech, thanking his friends for
their partiality In re-eleeting I I n, and
promising that he would do all In his power
to promote the success of tho party.
H M Nead, secretar of the committee,
was re-elected without opposition, and the
following executive cominltieo was chosen
unanimously: William L. Scott, of Erie;
Eokley B. Coxe, Luzerne; M. F. Ellinti,
Tioga; Charles F. Krnnibhaar. Philadel
phia; B F Meyers, Hai-rlshiirg; Marshal
Wright, Lehlgn, and Ja net P. Kerr, Clear
field, Commissioner Sensenderfer. of Phila
delphia, who temporarily presided over the
meeting, offered a .resolution, which was
adopted, urging tho forma Ion of Democra
tic clubs throughout the Slate. The com
mltteo showed their continued fealy to the
principles of tariff reform bv adopting a
ringing re-olutlon on the subject, presented
by Irvln Steel, of Schuylkill county.
There was a little fight over t lie selection
of a place for the meeting of the next Stale
Convention. Marshal Wright made, n
plea fur Allentown, but the committee
chose Harrisburg.
