    FARMER CAMEROX.
Venerable r.x.Stor Among
Hi Flock and Hwda.
The
Lancaster, April-20. He wort
single white hyacinth in the lappd
buttonhole of his black Prince Al
bert coat, and just enough trace of
the foil upon the polish.d neatness
of bis shoes to hint that he is a farm
er His tall, slender figure stoops
from the six feet of his prime very
verv little, considering the weight of
four score and four years, fnll ot
anxieties more wearing than cer.cern
lor the chance? of wheat surviving
the fro? t of a green winter, and bat
ties fiercer than those he now wages
eaimit the tobacco worm. It strops,
indeed, about as one of his height
would have to atoop t tak the han
dle, of a plough. A full head of
white hair, swept straight back from
bis face, falls in a silver wave from
underneath his somewhat worn f ilk
bat to the red silk handkerchief
loosely knotted about bis neck. His
face is clean nhaven and almost rud
dv, bis eyes clear and bright, his
fa'r.head wonderfully free fre-m wrin
kles, ns though he had never in an
his life concerned himself with any
project deeper than turnips or more
intricate than a furrow. So yester
day I found Simon Cameron, the
grandfather, tutor and original mod
el of all the famous school of Penn
sylvania politicians ; the man who
bepan life for himself as an appren
tice printer in a country newspaper
office, and made himself a baaker.a
railroad president and a millionaire,
Senator, member of the Cabinet and
foreign Minister; swayed Legisla
tures at his will, mad and unmade
Presidents, dictated National poli
tics: and conducted the most gigantic
political operations of bis time. He
stood in the sunshine nesiae m
country bouse with a couple of his
lured laborer? ana poimeu mis way
and that with his long straight staff
as he talked to them with great ani
mation upon certain work about the
farm.
f, KNKKAI. ( AMEKOJi ANP HIS NEIGH
BORS. His farm comprises about five
hundred acres of the best land in
Lancaster county, lying in its ex
treme northwestern corner. It is 15
miles from the county seat, and is
most readily reached by way of Ma
rietta, which lies within three miles
of it, on the Pennsylvania Railroad.
A quarter of a mile away are the
broad larms of his son, the young
Senator, who, by the way, has quite
recovered his health abroad. "At
least," his father remarked, "he
writes like a well man and says
nothing about his health.'' Another
of General Cameron's neighbors, and
his intimate friend, is James Duffy,
the greatest tobacco farmer of the
largest tobacco growing county in
the country, for thrifty Ianeaster
bus given the bst of Kentucky and
Virginia thej:o-by in the magnitude
of its tobacco product Mr. Duffy
has extensive farms in the neighbor
hood of the Cameron homestead,
and is somewhat famous for bis din
ners. Grant Sherman and Bayard
are among his frequent guests, and
his hospitable mansion in Marietta,
is also a favorite resort of the Farm
ers' Club, that wonderful agricultur
al society which has on iU roll such
men as George W. Childs. proprietor
of the Philadelphia Ledger; Judge
Green, of the Supreme Bench; ex
Attorney General McVeagh, and G.
B. Huberts, president of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company. The
chief characteristic of the Farmers'
Club is that its membership has ail
sorts of people in it except farmers.
THE CAMERON FARM.
General Cameron raises chiefly to
bacco, and the white sides and red
roofs f the large barn-like drying
beds about the house mark it to the
J V m t vt v TW mi vu. v u . vr vJ mm
considerable share of his acres to
other crops, however, and has a fine
herd of Jersey cattle. The State
formerly tiad a fish nursery on the
premises, supplied with water from
a strong spring which rises in the
cellar of one of the farm buildings.
It was abandoned about a year ago,
however. The farm-house is a large,
two-story brick, built on the sub
stantial, spacious plan of years ago.
A porch level with the ground and
floored with red brick tiling txtends
along the whole front Red wooden
rocking chairs loll about here and
there as if inviting guests, for the old
f;eneral is fond of company, particu
arly the company of young people,
and the old fashioned and dull brass
knocker swings very easily and mu
sically on its gudgeons. The chief
ornaments of the grounds are a
thrifty growth of young locusts,
stretching from the house- to the
church-yard fence, and a royal bed
of hyacinths, red, white, yellow, pink
and purple. Here and there one of
the elder growth of trees has been
cut off and the stump fashioned into
a rustic seat It is a very quiet
peaceful home. The robins pipe aud
the blackbirds whistle and the wood
pecker drums on the trees, undis
turbed bv the sound ol a eun from
year's end to year s end. The farm
houses round about are none of them
very close. The only near neighbors
are the silent people in the old
church-yard of Donegal, within a
stone's throw of the porch, where lie
many of the early settlers of that re
gion.
THE OLD SENATOR AT HOME.
To this retired home the venerable
Senator begins coming every
Fpring, as soon as the very cold
weather breaks up. He usually
comes out from Harrisburg every
Friday or Saturday, returning on
Monday or Tuesday. Although his
grandson has general supervision of
the farming operations, he Lakes an
active interest in them himself, and
when he is at the farm, plans the
work and gives his orders to the la
borers direct He stopped in the
midst of an interesting description of
Henry Clay's eloquence and stepped
out to the barn with a butcher who
called to lok at some cattle.
"Clay bad wonderful command
over an audience," be said. "He
bad a voice like an organ, and most
delightful music he played on it
But there,' he added, painting up
frera the dining-roem table to a por
trait of Webster on the wall, "there
was the greatest of them all."
His house, up stairs and down, in
ba'ls and rooms, is a very gallery of
pictures, lor the most part life-size
portraits of distinguished statesmen,
Lung seemingly as the notion bap
ened to take him. without any par
ticular order of arrangement There
is one notably fine large engraving
of Abraham Lincoln in the library,
and on either side of the fire-place in
that room bang engravings of Gov
ernors Hiester and Bigler, small but
finely executed. Very many of the
men whose portraits be has were bis
contemporaries and associates, and
their faces looking down at him
from the wall frequently incite him
to interesting anecdote and reminiscence.
THE riCTCRE F LINCOLN S CABINET,
after Senator Cameron's own retire
ment fmm the War Department,
!rav him text for half an hour's
sprightly chat on the politics of 20
years ago, and keen analysis oi me
public men of that day. Chase, be
said, was a man of fine presence and
a great man, but be made a mistake
in antagonizing Lincoln second
nomination, and in clinging to the
dream of the Presidency for himself,
which he did not surrender even af
ter his elevation t the Chief Justice
ship. Caleb Smith "was a great man
in Connersville." Montgomery Blair
was a man of strong parts and abil
ity, but so radical that he was some
times narrow. "Lincoln was greater
than them all," he added. "Some of
the membere of his cabinet thought
they knew more than he did. but
tbeV didn't"
His conversation was rich in an
ecdotes, which invariably had a
point to them, marking some charac
teristic of a distinguished man or il
lustrating the political manners of
'the time. He was carelul they
j should not be put in print, however,
saying invariably: "No, it might
'annoy him," or "that is a war office
"When I was at the head of the
War Department," he said, "I could
scarcely see where our generals got
their soldiers from. Everybody
seemed to be staying at home and
trying to speculate off the Govern
ment. My office, my house, my
bed-room," my carriage even, were
constantly in' a state of siege. All
sorts of persons thronged about me
and pestered me with all sorts of
schemes. One man, who has since
been a candidate for
VRESIPENT K THE I'MTEI) STATES,
came to see me almost every day for
a month. He had a patent yeast
nmriliir n-Viich lie wanted to pet
adopted in the Commissary Depart
'ment I don t know wnai me in
gredients were, but it was some stuff
itebu mixed with the Hour in the
barrels. I did, however, recom
mend it to the Quartermaster, but
j he wouldn't try it. But I believe it
itt-au varu veant tiowder. 1 remem
ber another instance which is rather
amusing. One day as I was about
to step into my carriage, two men
seized on me, one at either hand,
each imnortuninff me t pet him ap-
Imiinted to some nlace or other.
Twenty or thirty years before a man
deserted his wife and little baby in
the town where I liyed. They were
nf rAnpctalile tock. but his deser
tion left them destitute. The towns
people took pity on them and helped
them with various donations. 1 re
member I gave the baby a pair of
red shoes. The baby grew up to be
a young man and I lost sight of him,
but when I looked at the faces of
these two men who were after office,
I recognized them, and the two lit
tle red shoes came up before my
eyes as if I had just bought them.
The man at my one hand was the
baby that wore the shoes. The man
at the other was the father who had
desprted bim. Neither knew the
other, and I didn't introduce them."
CAMERON ON TILDEX.
Occasionally Mr. Cameron's talk
drifted into current politics. His
comments upon public men were all
couched in kindly terms, except
when speaking of ex-President
Hayes, far whom he never prolessed
any respect "Human nature is
much better than it gets credit for
being," be said. "I have had a
great deal to do with it in my long
lifetime, and I speak from experi
ence. There is much less ingratitude
in the world that your newspapers
would permit us to believe, and
mueh more disinterestedness. States
are erateful as well as individuals.
One secret ot Mr. Randall's strong
hold upon the people of this State,
irrespective f party, is that he has
never forgotten that he is a Pennsyl
vanian, nor neglected to defend her
interests. Hancock's weakness was
that he was withdrawn from Penn
sylvania at an early age, when he
went to the military academy. He
never bad any hold in the State. He
had no family connections here, and
his marriage with a Southern lady,
did nothing for him in that way.
He was a weak nomination. The
Democrats had only one thing to do
after 76. To re-nominate Tilden in
their party organs immediately after
Hayes inauguration and keep in
sisting on it until the election ot
10. Their failure to re-nominate
bim was the greatest modern blun
der of the Democratic party."
"No, there is nothing I care to say
on the political situation," he re
plied, when pressed for a few words
of comment, prediction or ad vice.
"I have ne purpose to serve in pol
itics, I am taking no part in any
way in any political movements,
and there is nothing I could say
that I know of which would do any
body any good. I served my turn.
I want to rest now and enjoy my
self." Pittsburgh Diitpatck of April
21.
Balmy Sleep.
Prominent physicians tell us a
person should never be waked except
in cases of urgent necessity. A man
in bis natural state is healthy. The
ailments of parents are often visited
uptsti the children, not because it is
a source of pleasure to the Almichty,
but tecause it is nature's law. One
of nature's laws is that a man is ben
efitted by sleep. If it bad been in
tended that a man should work 24
hour nature would have made the
sun to shine all the lime.
The man who disregards the de
mands of his body and mind for the
amount of rest that natuie claims
suffers sooner or later. Nature is the
best book-keeper the world ever saw.
You may overdraw, but you always
pay oack the last penny, often giv
ing up the ransom Shylock demand
ed of Antonio, and sometimes even
more than the pound of flesh. The
man who attempts to steal from na
ture finds his mistake.
When a man falls asleep he is in
a shop of repairs. All the intricate
machinery of his body is being over
hauled and put. in" order for he
next day's work. Nature knows
what the tired body needs. She lays
it ou a bed, surrounds it with the
refreshing air of night cover it with
darkness, and lets the man rest
"Tired nature's sweet restorer
belray 6leep," visits him, and as the
hours pass by bis energies are re
newed, his strength cone es back, and
finally, when the sunlight steals
through the windows, he opens bis
eyes and feels like a new man. If be
is early to bed he awakens corres
poodingly early. Now. who will eo
to the man's side an hoar before he
opens his eyes and sar to nature :
"Stand aside and let him no. he has
had enough of rest 1" Well, nature
will say : "You tan take him if you
will, but I will charge him with an
hour's loss of sleep, and 111 collect
it out of his bones and nerves and
hair and eyes. You cin't cheat me.
I'll find property to levy on."
A Cruel Wretch.
Scranton, April 13. Dr.W.S.
Madden, who came here from Lew
isburg nearly two years ago, was
arrested last evening at the instance
of Miss Sadie McCleviaghan, who
came to Scranton from Lewisburg
en February 20. Madden is a little
over thirty years of age and has a
wife in Altoona. He brought Miss
McCleviaphan here on a promise
that he would marry her as soon as
he could get a divorce Iroui his
wife. He occupied an office and a
sleeping room on Spruce street
For six weeks he kept the girl con
fined in his back room, the nearest
neighbors not knowing that she was
there. Madden carried food to her
in a basket. Whenever he left the
officer would chain her. In this con
dition she lived for the period nam
ed. She often threatened to make
on nntnrv bo na to attract the atten
tion of the neighbors, but she feared
- . . i i-i rri
he would kill her n sne aia. iuis
evenine Miss McClevinghan decided
to no longer endure the torture
which Madden had inflicted on her,
and rushed from the room as she
stood by the open door and ran out
into Spruce street She then quick
ly turned the corner inte Wyoming
avenue and ran half a block to the
Susquehanna house, Madden pursu
ing her closely. She rushed into
the hotel and'begired the people to
protect her from Madden.. He at
tempted to take her from them, but
was unsuccessful. As quick as she
could she gave them a brief out
line of Madden's cruel conduct,
when Landlord Carpenter and his
help detained Madden until Chief of
Police Delacy came.
Madden was then arrested and
taken betore Mavor Beamish, to
I whom the girl told of Madden's
' l... Tk. 1 .1. o 1 1 'i 1 1 1 onrl
cruelty, i ....v.
staples which the doctor had used
to fasten her in the room were pro
duced in court. Madden acknowl
edged that he had treated the girl
with great cruelty, but begged the
Mayor t be lenient toward him.
He was held in 81,800, in default of
which he was placed in jail.
Miss McCleviaghan seemed to be
weak and nervous. She said that
up to the time of her coining to
Scranton she had lived with a sis
ter in Lewisburg, where she met
Madden who wronged her under
promise of marriage. Later she
heard that he was a married man.
Vhen he brought her here he told
her that he weuld marry her just as
soon as be could get a divorce from
his wife, as divorce proceedings were
then pending in Huntingdon. She
said that he confined her in his bed
room from the moment she entered
his office, and that he chained her,
and tied her wheneyer he went out
He had taken food to her oceasion
ally but not regularly. Some days
he gave her only one meal, and that
of not very good quality. She had
often begged him to let her out,
promising never to expose kirn if he
would do so. He had threatened to
kill her if she made any outcry.
Miss McCleviaghan is about twenty-one
years old ; looks thin and
careworn. She has light hair and
large expressive blue eyes, and her
cheeks are somewhat sunken. There
is but little color in her face. She
speaks intelligently. Her manner
is polite, and her story is told with
a clearness and candor that convinc
es of its truthfulness while it excites
sympathy.
Idol at Braddock.
Pittsburgh, Pa., April 17. Be
tween thirtv and forty Hungarians
and Poles employed at the Edgar
Thompson Stet 1 Works at Braddock,
Pa., engaged in the bloody riot this
morning about 1 o'clock. Pistols,
knives, clubs and and every conceiv
able weapon were brought into ser
vice and lreely used. the nght
lasted two hours, and when finally
quelled by the citizens, who were
compelled to organize a vigilance
committee to suppress the riot, it
was louud that three men had sus
tained eerious injuries, and that a
number of others were slightly
hurt
Joseph Miller, a Pole, had several
deep gashes m the breast and face.
He will probably die.
William Smith, a Hungarian, was
shot in the back of the head. He
will recover.
Albert Woleskl, a Pole was badly
cut in the head and face and had an
eye chopped out with a hatchet
His wounds are dangerous.
The iiot was the result of "bad
blood"' between the Poles and Hun
garians. Last night the Poles liv
ing in Broggerman's Row were
celebrating the return to their coun
try of five of their number, and
during the evening the party par
took freely of liquor, minor quarrels
occurred. About 1 o'clock Miller
went for a drink of water, when he
was attacked by Hungarians. His
friends came to the rescue and a
general melee followed. While the
battle was in progress the citizens,
who became alarmed, organized,
marched on the mob and succeeded
in dispersing the rioters without
bloodshed. Five of the latter were
arrested and lodged in jail.
DtitaHtroua Cyclone.
Columbus, Ga., April 15 A dis
astrous cyclone swept over Harris
county last night The first damage
was done at the residence of George
Williams and Mrs. Cabbs, three
miles southwest of Chipley, and
from there to Mr. Culpeper's and F.
J. JenkinV place where the houses
were blown down. Lee Alford was
instantly Rilled at the latter place
place and his wife and three children
badly hurt, John Langford and his
son were badlv hurt and his
,;i- l
"lie
and child is also reported as dying.
Mrs. Mary Davis' residence was de
molished. In the town of Shipley
a number of residences were blown
down or badly damaged. Thomas
Champin was badly wounded and
Mrs Champion slightly. C. T. Mc
Gee received several internal injuries
and his eon was fatally wounded.
Mrs Layfield and her sister were
slightly injured. A. J. Grove recei
ved several internal injuries. Miss
Langford was badly hurt Ben.
Powell aud his son are reported to
have been killed. The storm passed
in a northeastern direction trom
Chipley, and outhouses and a part
of Joe Da mas' residence were blown
down. R. S. Parkman's place was
demolished, and Luke Howell's
place was made a wreck. The
outhouses and residence on lit v.
James A. Jones' and Thomas L.
Bowden's place wt? badly damaged.
The last named places are near
Warm Springs where Mr. Bowden
and wife were slightly wounded.
ine destruction to property can
hardly be estimated. The cyclone
swept e verything ahead of it and
many miraculous escapes were
made.
To know how to wait is the great ,
secret of success.
A. Jleadleaa Dody Found.
Erik April 17. Yesterday a par-
i ty came to Erie from Clymer, N. Y.,
i .i -. i t
to see me remains oi me uokdsito
man who was found in Evans' woods
dead, a couple of weeks: since, think
ing possibly that they might be
those of a man named J. D. Cear
watrr, who came to Corry, and af
ter getting a check of $250 cashed,
disappeared mysteriously. The Cly
mer friends were disappoint
ed, but upon returning home learn
ed that the body of an unknown
and beheaded man had been found
in the woods near Clymer. The re
port states that the head cannot be
jfound ; also that the pockets had
been turned inside out, showing
that they had been rifled. It is
net known whether this was the
body of Clearwater or a young man
named Knapp, who is also missing
from Clymer a small town situa
ted near the Pennsylvania State
line.
Messrs. Hiscox & Co. call special
attention to the fact that after April
16, 18S3, the name and style of this
preparation will herealter be simply
Parker't Tank. The word '"Ginger"
is dropped, for the reason that un
principled dealers are constantly de
ceiving their patrons by substituting
inferior preparations under the name
of Ginger; and as ginger is an un
important flavoring ingredient in
our Tonic, we are sure that our
friends will agree with us as to the
propriety of the chanp-e. There will
be no change, however, in the prep
aration itself; and all bottles re
maining in the hands of dealers,
wrapped under the name of "Park
er's Ginger Tonic," contain the gen
uine medicine if the signature of
Hiscox ifc Co. is at the bottom of the
outside wrapper.
The Empress of Austria is in Wels
baden, where she spends her days

She rises at dawn, fills up her entire
day with athletic exercises, and
while the fashionable world is deep
in its dissipations the Empress is
enjoying the first sweet sleep of

having peculiar advantages of raw materials
