P3TER RINKER'S ABSURD ItE
PORM PRETENSIONS.
Endeavored to Got Dr. J. J. Roberts
to Betray Hon. J. R, Parr Has
Also Issued a Circular Which
Makes an Attack on tho Present
Member from tho First District
and Circulated It at tho Eleventh
Hour Funeral of W. T. Davles.
Peter Maker's pretensions t . form
politics have been given a rlous
shock by tho announcement pu'iiiely
made by Dr. J. J. Roberts, ill- l.
publlcan candldato for conv, ,. that
Mr. Hlnker came to him with .i i-opo-pltlon
to betray Farr In his en...' duey
for the legislature. Mr. Itlnker n- "ho
Honest Government and Prohlbi'i'"i
candldato for tho legislature In "he
First legislature district. He has b n
denouncing every other clement In
politics but his own as dishonest and
bad. Notwithstanding his bold claims
for honesty, ho went to Dr. Roberts'
home und made the proposition to the
doctor, that he, Itlnker. would turn
In for tho doctor if the latter would
betray Farr. Hlnker, of course, to be
tiay Dr. Treverlon, who Is the candi
date for coroner on the Prohibition
ticket with Itlnker.
The doctor wns amazed at tho
braKPtuicsH of Voter Hlnker, but em
phatically told biin that he was for
Farr and the entire Republican ticket.
Dr. Roberts has not hesitated to tell
of tho contemptible deal which Itlnker
proposed nnd the hitter's hypocrisy (
has been the subject of much comment.
I'eter Itlnker has further shown his ,
nblllty to get down to tho lowest kind 1
of politics by going from house to
house slandering Mr. Farr and as u
last resort to win votes tor h'nscK
Issued last evening nn anonymous elr
eular attacking Mr. Farr, delaying this
to a time that deprived Mr. Farr the
opportunity to defend himself. Thl
circular Is spread about the. district
today, but Its Influence canrot be in
jurious to Mr. Farr In the minds of
fair and thinking people. Mr. Farr's
record nt Harri.sburg and at home will
bear the closest scrutiny. Ills splen
did legislative work for the people Is
too well appreciated to allow such
unmanly methods to Injure him.

HOPES FOR RESTORATION.
A td instance of what sometimes
easily results from a playful joke is
shown by the terrible misfortune which
has befallen John R. Devers, of Urant
avenue. Mr. Devers has lost his eye
sight entirely, but ,was ndvisjd to go
to Philadelphia and consult a special
ist. It Is likely that he will go tomor
row nnd it Is hoped by his friends
that success will follow him.
Tho cause of his lo was duo to
a little blow on tho cheek, Just below
the right eye-ball, while fooling with
some of his friends In tho Capouse
mine one day early In October last.
No notico wns taken of the blow un
til some weeks afterward when Inflam
mation set In and now both eves are
In rvicli a condition thai It Is Impossible-
for him to see. He Is a well
known young man und respected, be
ing an active monitor of St. Hretiden'i
council, No. 242. Young Men's Institute.
Ho was tho sole support of a widowed
mother previous to the accident.

1722 Washburn sttvet, narrowly es

o'clock, Just nr the family were about
to sit down to the evening meal.
One of the children had lost some
thing on the floor and began to search
for it. Lighting a match he crawled
under the sofa, which stood In thedlnlng
room. Almost Instantly the sofa, was
ft mass of flame, the lighted match hav
ing Isnlted the excelsior with which
It was stuffed. The boy's clothing took

The oldest son. Thomas O. Evans,
who Is teller In the West Side bank,
and 'his brother, Edward, promptly
seized tho burning sofa and carried It
Into the yard, where it was completely
destroyed so fiercely did It .burn. Roth
young men suffered severe bums about
the hands and face and nre under a
physician's care. Their sister, Miss
Edith, was prostrated by the fright and
excltment. T it for the prompt and
thoughtful action of the boys great
damage nnd probably n fatality might
easily havo occurred. No alarm was
sent to the lire companies and little
damnzo other than the destruction ot
the sofa occurred to the furniture.
