as saying to a SL Louis reporter : " The
tnasses of the people are in favor of Cleve

l.e should not forget that the Democrats
cannot elect a President w ithout the solid

Flour fcr Starving Russians.
'tw York Pro: .- On an application from
Senator W. 1). WasLburn, of Uinuesot
wbo is oaeof the greit flour manufacturer
of the North west, Secretary Tracy has des
ignated tbe sailing ship C Murtellation to
convey to Russia tbt large contribation of
flour for tbe aid and relief of starring Rus
sian that has been donated for that purpose
by tbe millers of Minneapolis and tbe North
west. The population orer a large area of
Busia is suffering for the want of food, and,
while tbe Ciar and bis nobility are doing all
they can to relieve tbe distress, it is known
that there is more suffering than they can
successfully meet. It U a gracious act of the
Northwestern millers to provide a cargo of
flour to feed tbe unfortunates, and tbe act
ot tbe government in furnishing a Teasel to
carry tbe food to Russia is in keeping with
tbe warm sentiment thst animates every
American toward Rutia for tbe friendly
part she baa always taken toward tbe United
States whenever we bare been engaged in
tn"-En or domestic eonflxta. We may criti
cize nuia's Siberian outrages and Russia's
persecution of the Hebrew, but her peiplt

AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
History Mad by Congress
Sadly Rich Death Roll
and a
Wabbisotob, Dec 31 As tbe old year
goes out to night people bare been recalling
the msny events f national importance
which bare been crowded into it. It was
ushered in with excitement on tbe morning
of January 1, a year ago. While Secretary
Diaine was entert-ining tbe Diplomatic
Corps at breakfast word came that tbe great
Blaine residence on Connecticut avenue,
then occupied by tbe Leiurra, of Chicago,
was in flames. Coolly remarking that be
hoped no lives would be lost, the Secret rr
offered bis arm to Mme Romero, wife of
tbe Mexican minister, and led tbe way to
the dining room. There was not a word
from him as to tbe great money loss in bouse
and valuable contents which be bad suf
fered. Eirly in January began the exciting de
bates in tbe Senate over the federal Elec
tions bill. Following close came tbe fifbt
for the Closure rule and the Free Silver bill,
and they soon became interwoven. Tbe
compromise of tbe eight silver Republican
Senators w itb the Democratic Senators result
ed in tbe passage of a Free Silver bill in the
Senate, the abandonment of tbe elections
struggle after an almost unprecedented dead
lock in the Senate, and the failure of tbe
Closure rule.
In tbe House, tbe last year witnessed tbe
passage of two bills, one of which, for tbe
payment of French Spoliation claims, bas
"u-e a before this country for more than half a
century, while tbe other, tbe Direct Tax Re
fund, ha come np every year for two de-
caA. m the lh ot ilarcn tne congrets
which bad been made memorable by Speak
er Heed and his rules, came to an end, and
tin' political complexion of tbe House of
Representatives was overwhelmingly chang
ed, and a new element, the farmers Alli
ance, made its first pi ranee in national
politics, only to 6nd its influence immedi
ately checked by a year of unexsmpled ag
ricultural prosperity.
M.n of national prominence have risen
and fallen. Flower has gone from Congress
te Albany as Governor, aud is even talked
of for tbe Presidency. McKinley has be
come a Governor, and he, too is a Presiden
tial possibility. Gov. Campbell bss been
ec!i-ei. Gov. Boies bas appeared upon the
Presidential horizon. Mr. Hill bas manag
ed to combine tbe two titles of Governor
aud Senator, and promises to continue bis
reign at Albany as tbe power behind the
throne of Mr Fiower.
Ur. Blaine, in sickness and in health, bas
negotiation, has reached the stage of arbitra
had tbe eyes of tbe country osctered on him.
The Bebring Sea controversy, after fears of
lion. Tbe Italian incident, with the with
drawal or recall of Baron Fava. has been
followed by the more serious international
complication with Chili, and as tbe year
goes out there are rumors of tbe poasibiti
tits of war.
Mr. Blaine's reciprocity idea bas been
spread over tbe Central and South American
countrie. Tbe American hog bas been re
admitted into tbe markets of Germany and
France, Italy and Austria-Hungary, while
Great Britain bas removed ber restrictions
on our cattle trade. President Harrison bas
miioe himself a more familiar figure to tbe
American iople by bis trans-continental
tour.
Death has garnered a sadly rich harvest.
Bancroft, historian, and statesman, is gone.
Secretary Windom met death at the height
of bis career. Admiral Porter acj General
Sliermsn followed soon after. General Joe
Johnston, tbe 'last of ibe Confederacy," died
last march. Then followed in quick suc
cession Representative Spinoiaof Kew Yorki
Rear Admiral Taylor, Congressman Ford,
ex-Sinator Joseph McDonald, Hannibal
Hamlin. F.x-Senator Pomeroy. ex-Congressman
William L. Scott. Rev. D. S. Burcbard
of "Rum, Romanism and Rebellion" fame,
Don Piait, Governor Hovey, Senator Plumb
and ex Postmaster General CresswelL
Altogether it has been a year filled wito
eventsofwide national and international con
aetjuence. A Brofcen Neck Cured.
IIai iiLvtiu.1, Uas., Dec 30. A rare
medical case that stands almost unparalleled
in the butory of medicine bas ben success
fully treated in this village. It is the reset
ting of a broken neck, and the patient, Michae
Mahar, a young man, after a cofinement of
three months, is now able to walk about.
Three months ago Dr. Hubert Flagg, of
Northampton, witnessed an accident by
which two young man in a party of four
were thrown from a wagon. Mabar Uiy
mutionlnsin tberoad. H is neck was broken.
Dr. Flags, a graduate of the University of
IVnnsyivauia, decided that it ought to be
possible to set a broken neck as well as a
disioc.iteil shoulder or tbigb.
He stepped back of the body, placed bis j
knees against tbe pstienl'sshonlders and took i
the bea.! gently but firmly between bis bands.
Then turning the betd from side to side
delicately, be gave a strong steadr pull.
TLere was a sharp snap and the bead was
again in its socket.
Tbe young msn was transferred a distance
of three miles to bis borne, Dr. Flagg hold
in bis bead in position all tbe lime. Tbe
innammation of tbe spinal cord was reduced
by a car.stant application of hot cloths to
the bark of 'be neck, nigbt and day for more
than three weeks.

Fought with Axes and Guns.
Bsokcs Bow, Neb., Dae 31. William
Detimore. a on of the notorious " Wild
Bill," and John Sandtrsm, threw this town
into a state of terror last night by indulging
in a fifc-bt in wbicb axes and guns played a
prominent part. Detimore was nnder tbe
influence of liquor. He claimed that San

op an axe and struck Detimore in tbe face
with tbe handle, tbe axe flying off from

Again the Chost Dance.
Foar Reso, I. T. Dec 3). Tbe Messiah
craze bas broken out afresh among the Chey
enne and Arapaboes, and Dot a little anxie
ty is felt. While it is quiet enough near tbe
reservation buildings, dancing has been go
ing on among the bills for several days and
the craze is apparently spreading. The lead
ers are Whirlwind and Old Crow of the
Cheyennes and I-eft Hand, tbe bead chief of
tbe Arapabvse.
At first the gathering was small, but In
dians have been streaming into tbe camp
until now here are from 1,0) to pres
ent. Tbey declare that the Messiah, wbo is
to expel the whites, bring back tbe buffalo
and restore their hunting grounds to the In
dians, is soon toming, and that tbe "ghost
dance" will be kept up day and night until
he arrivti.
Runners have come in from Walker's
Lake, in Nevada, inciting the Indians to ac
tivity and predicting tbe early appearance of
the Messiah. Tbe ghost dance goes on day
sad night, tbe Indians being divided into
relsyv, one party relieving another as the
fatigue overcomes tbem. AH are provided
with ghost shirts and seem terribly in earn
est. Scouts report that wild whoow and yells
can be beard at all hours of tbe day and
nigbt from tbe hills where the tribes have
gathered. As yet the excitement bas not
reached the Comancbes, but it is feared that
they, too, may become involved. This is
regarded as a serious danger, as the Coman
cbes have an ample supply of ponies, in
which tbe Cheyennes and Arapahose are de
ficient. All are well armed with Winches
ters and revolvers.
Tbe i. Seers of moat experience in Indian
warfire are not inclined to believe that any
serious outbreak will occur at present, as
tbe Indians bave a borror of winter cam
paigns, but tbe excitement way cause tbem
to depart from their usual practice of mak
ing war only wben there is plenty of graa-
for their ponies.

Mr. Howells' New Work.
Tbe announcement that Mr. Howells will
leave Harper's Magazine, to take ediloria
charge of tbe Cosmopolitan, on March 1st,
calls attention to tbe process of building up
tne etaaofs great mogsaine. Probably in
no monthly has tbe evolution been s dis
tinctly under the eyes of the public as in the
case of the Cosmopolitan. The first step
after its editorial control was assumed bv
Mr. jonn Knsben Walkor, was to add to it
Edward Everett Hale, who took charge of a
department called "Social Problems," sub
jects concerning which tbe greatest number
of people are thinking to-day. Mr. Hale,
bo ia a student a fair minded man.
Iboroogb American and a man of broad
sympathies, baa filled this position in a way
to attract tbe attention not only oftbiscoun
try, but of leading European journals. Home
months later, a department was established
called 'The Review of Current Events."
To taji e charge of this, a man wss needed
bo should be familiar not only with ths
treat events of the past thirty years, but who
knew personally the leading men of both
tbe United Slates and Europe who could
interpret motives and policies. Mur.it Hal
stead accepted this position with the distinct
understanding that bis monfhly review
should be philosophical at.d cever pariifau
Tbe next j:ep in (be hulory of tbe Cusn.o
poliUn, was the placing of the Feview ol the
Intellectual movement of tbe month in tbe
bands of Mr, Brander Ma'tLews. wbo fur
some time bas been recognised as one of the
two ortbree ablest critics in tbe Cuiied
Statas.
Finally came the acceptance of tbe e lit ir-
ship conjointly with Mr. Walker, by Mr.
Win. Dean Howells. Mr. Howells. wbo is
recognised nniversally as tbe formost Amer
ican of letters, upon the expiration of Lis
contract with Hsrper Brothers, on thefi-st

Mr. M. M. Hartzell, Rockwood, says : "I
can highly recommend the nse of the Car
bolic Smoke Bail treatment to all asthma
subjects."
Mr. J. D Critcbfield, Rockwood, says:
By two months nse of tbe Carbolic Smoke

it did and she does not take cold so easily "
Mrs Emma Shnmaker, Meyersdale, says :

Sherman or Foraker.
CoLr.MBts, Ohio, Dec. 31. The fight for
the United States Scnatorship grew hot.
Ex Gov. Foraker, with a full force of work
ers, arrived aud began active operations
Wednesdsy night. Senator Sherman will
come in from Washington to-day. The Sen
atorial contest will probably be held Thurs
day of next week, and the branches will
vote separately for Senator January 12, and
on joint ballot tbe l.'Hh.
Tbe managers on both sides are claiming
enough votes to insure the caucus nomina
tion. There are two candidates for Speaker
of the House, and tbe Senatorial lines are
pretty closely drawn on this contest, and a
fair indication of the relative strength of
the Senatorial candidates will be bad Satur-
dav night, when the House caucus ia to be
held.
A Victim of his Parents' Faith.
BcBUXiiTo.v, la , Dec. 31. Clarence Lay,
t'ie youthful son of Mr. and Mrs John Ley,
is dfad. For four weeks he was under the
exclusive rare of a bealor of tbe Christian
se'ence crae. His family are bigots in the
faith. The boy plainly grew worse. Rela
tives tried to get tbe city authorities to inter
fere, but without success.
About an hour before the boy's dea'h
physician was hastily called. He could do
nothing and has refused to sign a death cer
tificate. This will compel a Coroner's inves
tigation. County Attorney Tracy intends to
push the matter.
A Year of Mourning.
Warsaw, January 1. This year th rough -
OQt Poland, is to be regarded as year of
the deepest mourning. The women of Po

mem irate the year of 1H92, wben tbey lost
their independence.
. Appeals lor Aid.
K i:o i; r k . Ia , Jan. 4 Many friends of the
late Justice Miller, at his old home, have
received copies of the appeal for aid for the
widow, sent out from SL Paul. It is under
stood that its circulation by mail is confined
to tbe eight states which composed the cir
cuit of tbe dead jurist. Persons here family
iar with the widow's affairs say the death of
ber husband left her practically penniless.
The borne that the couple occupied in Wash, j
incton is heavily encumbered, whilo the
property of the estate in this city is non-pro
ductive, consisting largely of unimproved
real estate.
Never Originated a New Idea.
From the St. Lou Is Globe-Democrat.
In bis New England dinner speech last
week Mr. Cleaveland confined himself to tbe
enunciation of ponderous platitudes. He
bas never in his lifeoriginated a new thonpht
or idea nor advanced a suggestion for tbe
remedy of the evils which be so glibly and
flatly points.
Craves a Murderer.
Dexver. Jan. X Sensation baa crowded
upon sensation in the great Barnaby murder
ease so closely that in twenty four hours Dr
Graves was convicted, made a confession, and
attempted suicide in jail. His wife's reason
is dethroned, and his aged mother is dying.
