Tatic press tliat "agile pension agents"
are anxious for the saage of a service
tension bill. Yet one of the great argu
ments for audi a bill is ttiat Bervice pen
sions ill shut off pension agents. When
even- old soldier's honorable discharge

there w ill be no need of an agent to help
hiin to get on the pension roll.
Com. Bahox Scott sees a split in the
Ilepuhliin party in l'ennsylvania large
enough to allow a Iemocrat to slip into
the Governor's chair. Mr. Scott is the
name man who induced Mr. Cleveland to
U-heve that the voters of the United
States were eager to re-elect him on a
free-trade plat form. As a political
prophet Mr. Scott is as much of a success
as he is as a humane employer of labor
in his coal mines.

don't like the McKinley Tariff bill.
The iniitiufacturcra of t iertnany don't
bke the Mc Kinley Tariff bill.
Tlie manufacturers of France don't like
the McKinley Tariff bill.
The angloiuauiac free traders and big
headed Mugwump of the United State
don't like the Tarifl bill.
This fumishe four excellent reasons
whv the bill should Itccouie a law.
SnxnTor Im.ai.ij hi his New York
Wurld interview article has this to say as
to pension matter: "According to the
table of mortality, the last surviving
soldier of the war for the Union w ill ex
pire between P.Utt and 1"'."0, but the pen
non roll will rapidly diminish long be
fore that time. Pensions to w idows and
dei-txU'tit relative will, however, con
tinue for a much longer period. Before
the account i finally closed I think the
government w ill have paid not leas than
V4.0tki.OM.Ofi0. It is not surprising if some
provision is ultimately made for pension
ing the ex-Confederate mildiers should
the ltemoctatic arty be restored to
isiwer."
Now it is William L. S-otl who wants
to go to the United States Senate from
Venn-ylvania to succeel Ion Cameron.

Tut: ai-tion of the State Committee in
fixing June 2oth as the time for holding
the State Convention, has made it necca
aary tar County Chairman Bicsecker to
hange the date for holding the primary
flection io this county to June 14th. in
ttrder to obviate the necessity of holding
a itfiea-ial primary for the purpose of elect
ing k4egates to the State Convention.
The eoUirity to make this change was
one of the w ise amendments to the party
rules adopted st the last primary. At
a tegular jn-imary there m generally a
n?tty full rote jiolled, aad by electing
delegates at this time there w ill be much
more of a popular exresion of the Re
sjblican voters of tlieeotinty as to w horn

Thi McKinley tariff bill continues to
be assailed by the Democrats, but it is to
be olieerved that they make no attempt
to produce a better. Once they w ere wed
ded to the Mills bill as a thing of perfec
tion, but it has become a back number
without supporters. Being dead it bas
not even mourners. The McKinley bill
may be amended, but it will pass essen
tially as it is. There is no objection to
improving it, and improved it maybe;
but it w ill not be altered at the cost of
protection.

A Violent Hail Storm.
Baltimouk, April 27. Thi city was visit
ed this afternoon between 3 40 and 4 o'clock
by hail of a size and destructive jsiwer never
before seen in this city. The hail was not
the snow-coated hail of commerce, hut was
plain hard ice tmxen through and through,
clear as oystal and solid as a rock. It went
through tbiV panes of glass as if they were
tissue iit, and the amount of damage
done by it can only he figured up when all
the broken ines are counted and the glass
setter's bills are paid. The loss will run up
into the thousands. The hail stones were
like rocks, some of them ragged and sharp
on tbeedgs as a steel blade. Hen's eggs
were nothing to them in sir.e. Many of thera
were as large as a man's fist, and as they
came down tbey sounded like so many can
noD ball falling on the helpless earth. The
storm came from the west, local in its char
acter, and swept to the east with a rattle
like heavy musketry, Tightening people out
of their wits, making some of the super
stitious think that the diy of judgment had
come and hitting those who were on the
arrets many bard knocks and driving them
into places of shelter.
All over the city the damage was heavy,
particularly in the way of broken glass. No
glass thai met the full force of the hail wai
strong enough to stand the force of the cobblestone-like
blocks that came out of the
"ky.
Trees and Hills a Refnge.
New Oki.eass, April 20. The great strug
gle to keep t k the flood is over at Dayou
Sara, a spe ial from there to-day says, and a
general surrender h9 been made all along
the line. The I'oinle Couee front has crev-a-eed
at Preston. St. Mauriue, and yesterday
the one just aliove MorpatiMi, w hich mill
before many hours take away this grand
levee. We have had two days of heavy rain
and the situation is beyond description.
The suderiug in 1'uinte Cuupee is terrible.
It is reported, that people are resorting to
tree (or safety. A relief boat should lie sent
at once if pissible. 8kitT loads of people
are .ssing through our inundated streets,
seeking safety on the hills. The situation
in Bayou Saia is ftighiful ; not a house in
town is ahove the flood.
Another break occurred last night in
Poiufe Coujiee levee, and the indications are
that the whole front will be submcrgid. As
the critical condition of the levee has been
known for some weeks, the hope is enter
tained that all have, in a turaxure, prepared
for the worst, and that no loss of life will
result from the breaks along the front.
An Old Man's Journey.
McCot.NEi.Lsvn.Ui, , April 2o Harri
son Warner, sged Sit years and as spry as a
school boy, started from lure yesterday to
accomplitdi a remarkaUe feat. He intends
walking to Italiimore, MJ., a distance of
over 40 miles, in Is days. He started froru
the Court House steps at 3 o'clock. He in

bis clothes. The harrow is painted a bright
red and bears on either side tiie inscription,
'Harrison Warner aged K'l, McConnllsrille
Ohio, the world-renowned pedestrian, en
route for liaUiuiore, Mi."
A large crowd of people gathered on the
streets to give the old man a send off. A
large collection was raised to help iiay bis
expenses. Mr. Warner is a shoemaker by
trade and lives ten miles north of here, often
walking here in an hour and a half, ail

A Trnte bloud Burst.
Gaisb-viixc, Ih . April 2i. It has been
raining almost contan!iy siiac last Monday
night, and at a o'ekak hut nigt a cloud burnt
strui k the city, lasting four hours, deluging
the town and county to tlie depth of several
feet. The water ran iu great n'vrra through
the streets, in many places three fret deep,
A small creek left its banks and swept away
numerous small dwellings. The tire alarm
was sounded at 11 o'clock and the dcwrt
ment and hundreds of people turned out and
belied in rescuing families residing on th
lowlands along the creek. The loss to prop
erty will run up into the thousands. T.ie
whole county is deluged and crops are cer
tainly ruined.
The storm was tlx heaviest ever known in
this section. Large washouts have occurred
on all railroads in ihi vicinity, and it will
be several days before trains can run. The
only life lost was that of a woman, who
died in the arms of a man who was carrying
ber trom her home, which waa surrounded
by water several feet deep.
