Chicago, 20. About 2 o'clock yes
terday morning; a fire broke out In the
"Walton House, ou East Washington
street a not too reputable locality
and from room 45, where the smoke
was thickest, the agonizing screams of
a woman were heard. The firemen
broke Into tlio room, extinguished the
flames, and found Mrs. Frank Flynn
lying on a bed burned out of all sem
blance to a liunmti form, and barely
alive. (She appeared to have overset
the kerosene lamp In an insane or
drunken frenzy. She was taken to
the County Hospital to die. Her flesh
was cooked and burned to a crisp.
A decision was rendered by a
Judge In New York Htate the other
day which carries with it a moral.
An old man of seventy years has been
eued by the town, for the expense of
keeping his son who had become a
confirmed inebriate and pauper. The
Court decided that, so long as laws
were made granting license to Indi
viduals to sell liquor, and young men
became paupers I h rough the uso of
them, that tin town was responsible
for their maintenance and not the
parent.
While at work straightening up a
tombstone over the the grave of Jere
miah Tallman In the Williamsport
cemetery, a a child of the sexton, Mr.
John Grennlnger, received fatal In
juries from which death reunited in
stantly. It appears that the sexton's
wife and child accompanied him to
the grave and the child sat on the
grouud fow feet from the stone. In
endeavoring to wedge a stone In an
upright position it broke und tell upon
the child's head above tho right eye,
cutting a terrible gnBli and leaving out
some of its bruins. Death resulted in
stantly. The little one's name was
Charles Elmer, being but seventeen
months old. Lock Haven Journal.
Springfield, 111., Aug. 30. A
ppecial from Ashland says: About
midnight, Saurday, five or six mou
broke open the door of Eli Cox's house,
about five miles north of here, and
demanded the old man's money, He
showed them where it was. They got
about $10. This did not satisfy them,
and they procured a rope and strung
Cox up three times, stuck his feet in
the tire, burnt hiwhaud-i and beat him
eirfuly. William Htiles and his
father lived In one purt of the house,
but were covered by revo) vers and could
give no uHslsUneo. The robbers had
horses tied in the woods near by, and es
caped. Thursday last, Cox deposited a
large sum of money in the bank, and
this was the money they expected to
get. t
New York, Aug. 'MX United
Stato Marshal Knox yesterday sent a
communication to chief of marshal of
the election districts in this city, re
questing them to meet at his office on
next Thursday to mako arrangements
for preparing the list of special mar
shals who acted ut the Presidential
election of 1850, with a view of the early
payment of those ofllciuls, who have
long since censed clamoring for tbelr
pay, many have made up their minds
that they would never get it. The
sums due these special marshals range,
according to the time served, from $5
to $ 50, and the total amount to bo dis
bursed will aggregate about $76,000.
None of the men will be paid until the
pay-rolls have beeu prepared, which
will occupy several days.
As the inquiry into certuln practi
ces of the retail drugtrade in Philadel
phia progresses, it becomes evident t hat
Bubsituation, adulteration, and soph
istication are common in that city.
The fault is not wholly with the re
tailers. Pharmacists urge that they,
as a rule, place implicit confidence in
the wholesale men who pupply them,
and thus it may sometimes happen
that a tincture, an extract, or some
other preparation will lack strength,
not through the direct fault of the
druggist who furnishes it to the con
sumer, but because of Inherent defect
or gross impurities in the drugs of
which it is composed. Other retailers
say that the testing of most of the
drugs in commou use Is by no means
difficult or expensive, and where drug
gists fail to make full test of their raw
material, the fault is theirs if they are
not able to produce medicine such us
may be worthy of public confidence.
Manv drug-gists are in the habit of sel
ling laudanum, a drug in very fre
quent request, at from two-thirds to
one-hall tho standard strength. This
they do, some of them say, because
they are often called upon to sell the
drug without prescriptions, and fear
that suicidal use may be made of it.
If, after a fair test, you are not
cured of gravel, nervous debility, or
any disease of the kidueys, bladder or
urinary organs by using Prof. Guil
raette's Freuob Kidney Pud, then the
druggist from whom yon bought will
refund-the money paid.
The Democrats Hare no Case,
Flillndelphla Press.
In epite of some advantages need
lessly mid foolishly thrown into their
hands, the Democrats have no effective
case for mi appeal to the country. If
the Republicans In Congress had been
guided by united, firm and sagacious
counsels, their opponents would have
lucked even a pretence of argument.
Republican divisions and mistakes
have given the Democrats their only
weapons. Hut though it wps a blun
der to arm them even with these nega
tive advantages, they lose their edge
when they come to be applied to the
test of truth.
The firstr Democratic argument is
that the Republicans in Congress in
creased tho appropriations to the ex
tent of f"8,OOJ,000. Hut what for?
Of the iucresso t50,i00,000 were for
pensions. Whether this expenditure
was wise or unwise wo do not now
stop to enquire. We present and
stand on the naked fact that it goes as
a reward to those who were wounded
in the war for the Union, or to the
widows and orphans of those who
perished. Right or wrong, It is not
for any parlinau purpose, nor for any
political jobbery, uor for any prolli
gato extravagance, but in fulfillment
of a law passul equally by Republi
cans and Democrats. Let the country
clearly understand that about two
thirds of all the increase was for pen
sions, and then let it pronounce con
demnation if it chooses. Of the
remainder, $13,000,000 were for defi
ciency left by a Democratic Congress.
And while the River and Harbor bill
was $7,000,000 larger than last year, it
must be remembered that $5,000,000 of
theumount were for the Mississippi
improvement which is justified on all
sides. The J'ress has spoken as
plaiuly and unequivocally ou this in
crease of expenditure as any journal
in the country, but the Democratic
papers may safely be challenged to
meet the case as it Is, and not ns it is
falsely represented.
The second Democratic argument is
that tho Republicans in Congress gave
the Nation no reduction in taxes. It
is true that Congress adjourned with
out making any reduction, and it is
equally true that the Democrats pre
vented it. Wo do not exonerate the
Republicans from all blame. They
entered upon the policy of reduction
at a late period of the session ; they
were somewhat weaked by divided
counsels; they suffered themselves to
be wearied out by Democratic obstruc
tion. Instead of this, they ought to
have seen the true course at the begin
ning; ought to have stood firmly to
gether for reduction; and ought to
have fought the battle out if it had
taken all summer. But after all this
Is said, the Republican majority of the
House pnssed a bill reducing the tnxes
to the extent of nearly twenty mil
lions; that the Republican Senators
tried to pacs it, and thnt the Demo
cratic Senators, under rules which
permit no curtailment of debate,
simply talked It to death. These are
the plain facts, and no Democratic
journal will venture to meet them
fairly and squarely. The Republican
record is not as good as it ought to be,
but the Democratic record is about as
bad as it could be.
Outside of these two questions, the
Democrats have no pretence of a case.
Wherein, can they arraign the Repub
lican parly? Where do they offer any
intelligible or sound Democratic
policy? On the tariff, they were
riddled to pieces iu 1&80. On the
civil service they propose nothing.
On the banking question they pre
cipitated a panic last year, aud con
tributed nothing to the settlement
which the Republicans have made
this year. Go through tho whole
catalogue of living questions, and
they answer without any positive
policy or auy just claims. Tho Re
publicans are ready to meet the issues.
An Alarmed Army.
APPREHENSION ABOUT THE INDIAN
TKOl'IiLES IN THE WEST.
Hairlbburtf Patriot,
Washington, August 20. There is
do disguising the fact that consider
able uneasiness exists in army circles
over the recent Indian domonstraton
in tho west. General Terry, who is
in command of tho division of Da
kota, is scarcely so successful in
Indian fights as General Crook, who
emmauds the division of Arizona,
and besides that an estimate of the
strength of the complaining Indians
shows that they number pretty well
toward 6.000 lighting men. Their
warriors are said to be well equipped
and it will take a very considerable
body of troops to successfully cope
with them. The exnerlence of the
army has beeu that in Indian light
ing, where the Indians has all the
advantage of position In his own ter
ritory, it takes two soldiers to every
Iudiau. To get together 8,000 troops
at one point in the west is a feat which
has not been accomplished for many
years, for to be entirely frank, as all
good newspaper correspondents should
be, that is pretty nearly half of our
army. The leaders of these hostile
art said to bo very shrewd and able
warriors, and unless a compromise
can bo effected the result muy be
quite serious.
Chilian Heroism.
Huenos Ayres, July 24. Advonces
from Chill state thatseveral skirmishes
have occurred between the Chilians
and Peruvians, iu all of which the
former were victorious, except in one
instance, where a body of seventy-five
Chilians was attacked by 2,000 Peruvi
ans, and, refusing to sureuder, nil per
ished. Doctor bills are abominable and
not needed lo kidney and liver affec
tions, as Peruna and Manalin-wiljcure
them.
A p actio Atrocities.
MURDER AND KAPINE IN SONORA
ELEVEN WOMEN BRUTALLY TOR
TURED AND MURDERED.
Tucson, ArU., Aug. 18. Advices
from Guaymas, Sonora, of the 10th
ult., says that word lias Just been re
ceived from Trinidad, Sonora, that the
Apaches are depredating fearfully and
committing frightful atrocities in the
Sahuarapa district. A large force of
Mexicans is in close pursuit of the
Redskins. At Taratuc Ranche the
Apaches killed six men passing La
Mesa Palona, they killed two in
Lucuchila and two in Arlncahonda
and for three hours afterward attacked
El. Carriel, killed eleven women and
a child, stripping the women and
brutally outraging them and then
putting them to death by the most
cruel torture. Four of the men of the
Ranch who were returning saw the
houses ou tire and fled. Tho Apaches
gave chase. Three of tho men took
refuge among the rocks and were de
feuding themselves, when the fourth
mnn, who escaped, brought the news
to Trinidad. A large force of citizens
started at once to the rescue, and
couriers were sent In nil directions to
warn the settlers of the whercaboutsof
the hostiles. No mail riders have ar
rived for several days. It Is believed
that all have fallen victims to tho
Apaches. The number of hostiles is two
hundred, commanded by Jub, the Chi
huahua Chief, who escaped after the
battle with General Fuero hist spring.
Authenticated reports state that a
band of Apaches have penetrated
A lamer and are depredating there.
General Reys, with a large force in
the Sahuarapa district, declares he will
not spare a mau, squaw or papoose if
ho again encounters them.
Still Waters not Always Deep.
The Revolution which drove Louis
Phillippe from the throne of France
was brought to a head in less than five
hours, and had the most unexpected
consequences. The soldiers had fired
on the people and eighteen men were
killed. These were laid on carts with
their wounds exposed, and driven
through the streets. No speeches were
made no meetings held, but Paris was
roused to a pitch of frenzy and the
King lied In disgrace to escape death.
The Democratic press has openly and
covertly sueered at General Heaver's
crutches and thus brought upon it the
contempt of those loyal men who can
not readily forget how those crutches
were earned. Could the Republicans of
Pennsylvania iiiitate the Parisians,
and parade through the streets of the
large cities und along the highways of
this great State the wounded and
mained of the late war, there is that
responsive sense of justice in human
nature which would preveut anj loyal
man voting for Pattison, and ensure
that no person with the slightest taint
of disloyalty should continue to hold
ofllce ia Pennsylvania. The Demo
crats are unmistakably nervous about
the effect of the General's wooden leg,
and so take every opportunity of dis
paraging the service in which it was
won. Hut not only Heaver's leg but
his tongue also gives the Democracy
a pang, and we heur a very great deal
about the pure gold of silence, and
some have dug up tho antiquated
maxim, "that a still tongue makes a
wise head," Now, Pattison may keep
just rs still as he pleases. Silence is
certainly for him the better purt of
wisdom, he might say nkward things,
and be asked very akward questions,
but judging from the effect that the
few speeches, and the social conversa
tion of General Heaver has had wher
ever lie lias appeared, we are decldely
of the opinion that he would be very
foolish to be silent at the bidding of a
few Democratic owls who find it best
for their health to hoot ut night-time,
and who delude themselves into the
belief that looking wise is being wise.
There is nothing so much admired in
the world as ready wit and lluent
speech, and persons not possessing
these have alwuys striven to bring dis
credit upon their possessors. We are
certainly not responsible if tho Demo
cracy has nothing good to say for itself.
Perhaps it has both wit and flueucy
but may be it is like Robespierre
choked with blood and so cannot tpeak
plainly. Again the responsibility is
not ours. We are very thankful, how
ever, that Providence has given these
good gifts to our candidate and that he
knows how to uo them to such good
purpose, and if the still tongue makes,
a wise head busiuess suits his oppo
nents, thev ure quite welcome to give
it a fair trial. With regard to Stewart's
proposal, we are forcible reminded of
the story of the man who was selling
oranges, and crying liis fruit in sten
torian tones while a little chap with a
basket full of oranges, said, "me too"
between every pause, thus diverting n
few pennies from those who admired
the humor of the tiling. Ho we do not
believe in the "me too'' business.
Four Persons Instantly Killed.
A PARTY OF MERRY-MAKERS HUN
OVER BY THE CARS.
Onoka, Minn., Aug. 20. When tho
north-bound passenger train ou the
Manitoba Railroad arrived at the
depot here at 10.80 o'clock, the engi
neer reported that he had struck
something ut the crossing about half a
mile below the town, a party went
buck to investigate and found a dead
horse and the fragments of a buggy
some ten rods beyond the crossing.
Near the crossing were the oodles of
four persons, two men aud two women,
all horribly mangled. The remains
were taken to the depot and these
identified as those of William Hackett,
James Pereole, Miss Florence Parker
and Miss Sallio Dawson, The bodies
were crushed und bruised so that
identification was difficult. Percolo
alono was still breathing when found,
but he died soon after. Tb men
were apparently twenty-two or
twenty-three years of age and the
girls seveuteen. The party had at--tended-
a dauce at Crooked Lake,
about three miles from Anoka, in the
evening, and were returning when
the accident happened. Just how it
occurred is not known, but it is sup
posed that tho driver of the buggy
attempted to cross ahead of the train,
which runs very rapidly at this
point.

A LETTER FROM JAS. 6. BLAINE.1
NATIONAL QUESTIONS WHICH ARE
INVOLVED IN THE 8TRUOOLE THIS
YEAR THK MAINTENANCE OF THE
PROTECTIVE TARIFF.
Mr. Blaine, having beeri invited to
speak iu his native State, (where the
Democrats as in Pennsylvania have
started an Independent movement to
promote their chances,) has said he
cannot stump owing to pressing busi
ness affairs, but writes his views in an
extended letter designed for general
publication. It applies as well to Penn
sylvania as to Maine. Among other
things he says : "The election of 1882
involves many deep questions of Na
tional importance questions which
deeply affect tho prosperity of the peo
ple of Maine. Whoever neglects to
make his influence felt in the pending
campaign disregards the Interests
which pertain to his future end, his
own fireside. The choice of four Re
presentatives in Congress and of a Leg
islature that shall appoint a Senator of
the United State brings directly before
the people every issue that Is Involved
in the administration of tho Nationul
Government. On every question on
which parties divide in this country,
the interests of tho people of Maine
must lead them, after sober second
thought, to support the Republicans.
Hy the spread of manufacturing in
dustries, by the growth of our agricul
tural interests, the people of Maine
become every year more and more in
terested in the maintenance of a pro
tective tariff.
"No candid man believes that a pro
tective tariff wuuld be upheld forasln
gle year if the opponents of tho Repub
lican party should come into power,
and by just so much any voter in
Maine helps to elevate tho free-traders
to power by so much he aids to im
peril the manufacturing and agricul
tural interests of the State. And not
less so in the matter of shipbuilding
Two out of every three candid free
traders outside of Now England will
probably declare that if their party
was in power they would at once pro
ceed to admit foreign-built ships to
American registry, and would break
down what they term the odious mon-
oply of the coasting trade. Causes
which need not here be enumerated
have imposed a long list of hardships
upon the navigation interests of the
country; but tho free-trado party is the
only one which has proposed to allevi
ate thoso hardships by the utter dis
t ruction of the navigation interests
itself.
"In the transfer of so large a propor
tion of the ocean freighting to steam
ships, the sailing vessel lias relatively
lost its importance; but it still repre
sents a very largo interest, in which
the people of Maine have a great stake.
During the year 1882 our principal
shipbuilding district will launch as
large a number of wooden sailing ships
as it ever did in a single year even
when those vessels were the ocean
freighters of tho world. Whatever
contests may bo before us in regard to
a revival of American commerce, no
Maine mau who Is intelligent as to the
future of his State can vote to
sacrifice an Interest which, under
every discouragement, has thus far
been so energetically maintained.
"It would be curious to call over a
list of the occupations of the people of
Maine, and after a careful inspection
of its details to have the free-trader
point out one that would be helped by
tiie destruction of the protective tariff,
or, indeed, one that would not be
harmed by It. The first one indicated
by tho free trader would probably be
the navigation interests, which lie
would boastfully maintain is seriously
injured by a protective tariff. Hut the
shipowner would not desire the dis
truction of the protection to manufac
tures if at the same it carried with it
the destruction to the protection of the
navigation interest, which comes from
securing tho coasting trade to Amerl
cuu-built aud American-owned vessels
Not to speak of tho countless sailing
vessels engaged in tho coasting trade
iu the Atlantic, the Gulf aud the Pa
cific, it must he remembered that the
steam tonnage engaged iu the same
trade, all built and owned in the United
States, is larger than the entire steam
tonnage of Great Rritian twenty-five
years ago. The coasting trade keeps
alive the navigation interests of Amer
ica, und out of it will soma timo grow
a foreign trade that will restore us to
our former and worthy rivalry with
the chief commercial nations of the
globo. Therefore the ' Republicans
united in holding on to the coasting
trade for our own vessels, and will
yield to no comnromiso on this poiut.
"Our prospects are promising, the
surroundings of the party in Maine are
so auspicious, that we all have heart
and courage for the work of tho cam
paign. Divisions that distract Repub
licans elsewhere ure unknown among
us, and it may be our happy fortune
by unity and victory tosetan example
to tho Republican party of the whole
country, nud thus to induce the har
mony and co-operation which arc iu
dispeusiblo to success."
A Girl Mistaken for a Dog.
A Lafayette (Ala.) special of Aug.
18, says: Sam Johnson, a well-known,
well-to-do planter, shot and killed his
niece to-day. A large white dog had
annoyed Johnson for some time by
entering the house and destroying ar
ticles. Johnson had gone to bed,
leaving his daughter and niece on' the
front piazza, where they stayed till
late. On entering the house to retire,
the girls made some noise, which
awoke Mrs. Johnson, who told her
husband that the dog was on the
piazza. Johnson arose, half asleep,
and came out with a gun, when seeing
something white in the doorway, he
tired and instantly killed bis nieco
aud wounded bis daughter- He be
came nearly lubune when be realized
his uot.

The singular thing about
