Two thirds of the Democratic mem
bers of the Legislature are in favor
of Cleveland for a second term. The
other army of officeholders are for
him. That is, the postoffice and so
forth officeholders. The Democrats
of the South, it is believed will insist
on placing Fitz Hugh Lee of Virgin
ia on the ticket for Vice President.
It is believed that with Lee on the
ticket the South will go solidly Dem
ocratic. Tbi Kentucky Democratic State
Convention met last week in Louis
ville, and all went along smoothly
until the platform was reported.
The platform among other things
praised the President for having ve
toed certain bills and it was con
strued to mean veto of the Pension
Bills, and on that there was such a
fnKs m!sed that two days were taken
up by the convention in an effort to
reach a satisfactory state of feeling
for the brethren, and still the breth
ren are not comforted.

the publication was by a communi

the responsible parties connected
with the paper. A newspaper man

Senator Sherman' Escape.
A special dispatch to the New
York World from Key West, Fla.,
says : Rumors to the effect that
Senator Sherman and party narrow
ly escaped being kidnapped in Cuba
have been thoroughly investigated
by the correspondent of the World
and are found to have some founda
tion It happened when John Sher
man, Mr. MUler and Mr. MeCook
end party were on a visit Gnanapav,
near Havana. The plan was well
laid and the banditti were led by
Malagas, the most celebrated and
loldest of the Cuban outlaws The
first information of the narrow es
cape of Senator Sherman, was given
by the Key West Equator, which
published the following : "From pri
vate letters from Havana we leain
that a party of kidnappers or out
laws, comprising the most danger
ous elements of the Cuban banditti,
had arranged to capture John Sher
man on his recent visit to Cuba.
The project only failed by a differ
ence in time. The plot was well ar
ranged and the banditti were in
sufticieut force to capture Sherman's
;party, but fortunately for the dis
tinguished gentlemen! safety they
left the plantation, which was intend
d as the scene of the outrage, just
five minutes before the outlaws ap
peared." This account wa made the
basis of several sensational reports
which have been denied, but the
story is true in every particular.
The capture was to take place while
the party were on a visit to the sugar
plantation of Don Pedro Lnmberto
Fernandez. Although Senator Sher
man had with him a body of the Civ
il Guards, the robbers were in suffi-
cient forcs bad they met them, to
capture the entire ooay ana uum
until iioT could reach the moun
tains where the Senator would have
been held as a hostage. A uner
.o r.t fioo minntes time sayed Sen
ator Sherman and probably an inter
national difficulty. When the band
itti appeared and learned that Sena
tor Sherman had gone they baatinad
oed the overseer and treated others
on the plantation to many severities.
The Cuban press acting under in
structions from tue troveruiueui,
have suppressed all mention ol tne
matter and it is probable that Senft
Kiir.rman is not aware of the
jjro.it danger he escaped. Mr. E. H-
Gato, the leading manuiaciurer u
ITat West and a Cuban bv birtu, who
recently returned from a visit to Ca-
ba told the World correspondent
that the story was undoubtably true.

Accldcntal Shooting.
The cases of accidental shooting
have been numerous within the past
month. A few of the most peculiar
cases are mentioned in this issue:
Hwhtstowk, N. J., May 5. A four
teen year old boy named Charles
Ball, residing at Chipuiunke, acciden
tally shot himself last Tuesday while
playing with a pistol, he being in the
act of reloading it The ball entered
his stomach, but the boy did not
seem to notice it, and made no men
tion of the occurrence until last night
when he suddenly became ill and died
from internal hemmorrhage. Only a
short time before his death he nar
rated the facts of the shooting.
WiLnsGTos, N. C., May 5. This
morning Eix negro boys, fifteen to
seventeen years old, were at the wharf
of the Wilmington Compress, prepar
ing to go across Cape Fear river to
shoot rice birds One named Grant
Best Lad borrowed a double-barrel
gun from a negro man, which he says
had no caps ou the tubes and he did
not know it was loaded. While he
was in the act of blowing out one of
the tubes the hammer fell and one
barrel wns discharged, killing instant
ly Ed Smith and B. Fillyaw. Ben
Co3o!y and Ed FiUyaw were also shot
and died 60on after. Another' boy !
named George Best was wounded in
both arms but it is likely he will re
cover. . Grant Best surrendered him
self immediately after the shooting
and claims it was accidental which
is generally beligved, as the wounded
boy is hi6 brother.
Orjranie Matter in the Soil
In all well cropped soils, the roots
of the crops, together with portions
which remain upon the soil, espec
ially when grass is raised, form a
gradually increasing amount of or
ganic matter, which becomes incor
porated witn tne sou by plowing aud
tillage, and adds greatly to the capa
city of the soil. The presence of or
ganic matter in the soil increases its
ieriuity Dy equalizing tne amount of
water which the soil will retain, so it
defends the rtlants arr&inst dronths.
It not only absorbs water like a
sponge wuen it rains, but in dry
weather it abstracts moisture from
the air, which it yields to the plant ;
besides, it arrests and retains certain
kinds of plant food, which might oth
erwise be washed awav or down
Uirougn tue sou by rains. Again, by
its color, it absorbs the heat of the
sun, and thus warms the soil ; and
by its slow decomposition, which is
going on all through the growing
season, it produces carbonic acid gas,
wl.ieb, being dissolved by the water,
aids in dissolving and preparing oth
er constituents of the soil to be taken
up by the crops. Organic matter is,
therefore, to be increased in soils in
which it is not naturally too abund
ant, in every economical way. Hence
composts consisting largely of 6iich
organic constituents as straw, leaves,
swamp hay, sods, weeds, peat, swamp
muck, aud w ood mould, are to be
recommended, quickened with stable
manure or with wood ashes or lime,
in place of concentrated fertilizers,
which supply only the constituents
supposed to be removed. Those ar
ticles, in the form of bone dust, ash
es, potash salts, etc., may well be ad
ded to any compost, and are thus of
ten most conveniently applied to the
oil American Agriculturist.
Horrible Accident.
A terrible accident occurred
on
Sunday morning, in which Samuel
IT 1 1 -.
naie, living one mile north of lll
iamsburg, in Woodbury twp., this
county, had his head blown off with
a loaded shot gun in the hands of his
sou. It appears that on Saturday

mgci, oamuei iiaie, carried Home a
quart of liquor, which he is said to
have placed under his pillow, when
he retired. About 7 o'clock on Sun
day morning he awoke, and being
still under the influence of liquor,
persuaded his son, aged 12 years, to
take a drink of the liquor, and soon
after at his father's direction, he took
another tlrink. A quarter of an hour
after, the boy, under the influence of
the liquor he had drunk, picked up a
loaded 6hot gun which was in the
room, and cocking it, began playing
with it, when the father commanded
the lad to put it down, but instead
of doing so, the boy pulled the ram
rod from the keeper and attempted
to thrust it down the barrel of the
gun, and in his efforts to do so struck
the trigger with the end of the ram
rod when the gun was discharged,

nassed over Somerset and western
Bodford counties last Thursday, the

trees were twisted off like 6traws aud
everything in its path ironed on to

The Big Wheat Deal.
Chicago May 7th. A despatch
from Galveston, Texas, say : The
million and a half bushels of June
wheat sold yesterday in the Chicago
Wheat Pit at Sol to 86 cents is un
derstood here to have been for the
account of Galveston parties who
were taking in their profits. This
wheat netted its holders about 3
cents per bu&hel all around. In ad
dition to this the Galveston syndicate
owns 1,800,000 bushels of actual
wheat in Chicago elevators, which
was delivered last Monday. Mora
over they did not get all the spot
wheat they wanted, and have out
standing contracts for 500,000 bush
els additional, which they are ready
to receive. These Galveston bulls
have confidence in dollar wheat be
fore the end of June, and are hold
ing thair cash stuff for $120 They
are amply able to hold what they
have and a good deal more under all
circumstancas, asthe syndicate com
prises three millionares and as many
half millionaires who have an unlimi
ted amount of nerve.
Measles Among the Indians.
From the Tumi California Sentinel.
Lately an attack of measles has
been playing sad havoc with the Yu
mas aocross the Colorado river, and
nightly the red glare of the funeral
pyae lights up the horizon all around
tee mountainous"" chain encircling
tneir reservation. The scent of
burning flesh can be sensibly per
ceivad in the atmosphere by any one
in the city who has Lis olfactories
exposed at the time. But with the
dead dies everything belonging to
the deceased. All other property
likewise perishes. This obliteration
of all earthly possessions, of course
makes the Yumas the poorest race
in America and always will, unless
they are in some way restrained in
the exercise of their foolish custom.
The belief is that this immolation
will appease the owls the spirits
of their dead who will visit them
forever in mournful hootings unless
the holocaust is made in all its hid
eons forms, without shade or varia
tiou from that known to their fath
ers. How long the fires will burn
depends on the victims the dread
reaper sends in, but let us hope they
will soon learn to discard their med
icine men and laave the white peo
ple an opportunity to save their
lives in cases of epidemics.

by the use of Barton's key, which had
been concealed in one of the solitary
cells, opened the doors and concealed
thmnlvai and at midnight when
Fred A. Hammond visited the solita
ry cells as usual they jumped on him
and gagged him and locked him in a
cell.
The solitary cells are so far from
the guard-room and the officers' sleep
ing rooms that no sound could reach
there. With Barton's key three oth
er prisoners were letout of their cells.
They then went to the guard-room
and secured a 'jimmy" and a jack
screw which was kept in the museum
and returned to the solitary 'cells,
whore thev could work without
being heard. They pried the bars
of a grated window seven ana a-naii
inches apart with the jackscrew and
got into a passage, where they tore
the casings from a door and entered
the blacksmith shop. Here they at
tacked another grated window and
pried the bars apart, got into the
yard and over the fence and mad
"their escape. The watchman was
seized at midnight, and the men got
off probably at about 3.30 o'clock.
The watchman was found at 4.55. He
is not much injured.
Hints for House kerpe rs.
From the Boston Budget
Put champhor on cold-soies when
thev first come, and that may heal
them or prevent them from develop
ing.
Finger marks may be removed
from varnished furniture by the use
of a little sweet oil npon a soft cloth.
It is said that a pint of milk taken
every night just before retiring to
rest will soon make the thinnest fig
ure plump.
It has been proven that eggs can
be kept fresh for t wo or three months
by simply packing in salt or in dry,
sifted coal ashes.
Never let the foet become cold
or sit with the back toward the win
dow as those things tend to aggra
vate any existing hardness of hearing.
Put tea and coffee away in air-tight
receptacles as soon as they are
brought to to the house. They lose
much of their flavor by standing un
covered. Poisonous wounds made bv spi
ders, centipedes and scorpions are
treated in the same way as those
made by insects, that is, by the di
rect application of hartshorn to the
wound and, when necessary, internal
stimulants.
Do not place raw meat directly on
ice for the juices are apt to be with
drawn. They should never be left
in the wrapping paper. Put them
in an uncovered earthen dish and
then set tbem on the ice. k
If a new broom be immersed fin
boiling water until it is quite CJld,
and then thoroughly dried in the ir,
it will be far more pleasant to use
and will la6t much longer. Frequent
moistening of the broom is conduc
tive to its usefulness and also to the
carpets.
