Tlio rank and fllo of tho American pooplo of th s city, who bellovo in law and order, will not receivo tho Governor's. demagogical action very favorably. It meets with sharp criti cism and denunciation oven from his own party. It was not ovon known hero that their caso was being considered by tho Gov ornor. Hankor E. S. Droycr, who has been Inter ostod in tho convicted anarchists from tho start, wont down from hero tills morning, and after securing a pardon for each of them from tho hands of Governor Altgcld, lea for tho penitentiary at Jollet. It is supposed Mr. Droyor's influence was decisive Tho anarchists arrived hero at 7:30 on the Santa Fo Road. Quito a crowd had gathered at tho Dearborn Street Station to witness tho arrival. On tho way up from Joliot tho three men promised Mr. Dreyor to eschow anarchy for, over. Tho Governor has prepared a long stato nient, in which he criticises Judgo Gray and Inspector Bonfiold sovorely. Tho Governor reviews the history of tho Ilaymarket meet Ing of May 4, 1880, in detail, and says the basis of the appeal for pardon was tho petition signed by several thousand merchants, bank ers, Judges, lawyers and other prominent citizens of Chicago, which, assuming tho prisoners to bo guilty, stated tho belief that tho prisoners have been punished enough. Schwab has been looked upon hero as ono of tho most dangerous men in tho horrible conspiracy that led up to tho Ilaymarket massacre. Fielden was always considered a misguidod hut honest man, and Neebo was looked upon as ono of August Spies' mis guided tools. Tho extending of clemency to Schwab cannot bo understood. Tho Goyer nor soems to havo actod without conference with or advlco from anybody of influence or authority. Frequent appeals were niado to all tho preceding Governors for executive clemency to the anarchists, but wero met with an unhcarty welcome Hon by Export Chllds, that tho damaged ma chincryshould not bo disturbed pending tho Investigation. A reportor was Informed to-day that warrants had been issued for tho arrest of tho snspicious person. That tho en tiro generator was not do stroyod is a matter of congratulation. It cost $12,500.

Destruction of the Traction Companj's 31a chlncry Premeditated Tho armature, which was destroyed In tho Schuylkill Traction Company's power house at Girardvilie last week, Is being replaced by J. W. Sweeney, of Allegheny City, electrical oxpert for tho Westlughouso Electrical Com pany, The system will be in full operation again this evening. Tho company is to be congratulated upon the speedy ,'resumption of regular traffic. Arthur E. Chllds, an expert electrician, has investigated into tho cause of tho trouble, and found that a piece of wire had been fastened in tho armature in such manner as to causo tho damage. It was so arranged that tho machine would run for about ten hours, and the time was guaged very nicely, as tho uaclilucry was started up at five o'clock in the inoruiugi and tho accident occurred at :30 in tho afternoon. Somebody placed tho wire In the armature beyond a doubt, as it would havo been Im possible for it to get thero iu tho way In which it was found. It Is further thought that tho party who placed it there expected that it would be destroyed when the arnia- ure burned. The company has made thorough examina tion of the clrrunistiinco with a view looking to the guilty party, and ho will undoubtedly be located and receive just punishment. The suspicion of the officers of tho company point trongly in a certain direction, and strict orders were given, previous to the examlua. WM. PENN. How tho Sunday School Observed Child ren's Iuy.

HE returns of tho Unit ALU's popular school teachers' contest as pub lished yesterday after noon created much sur priso and sont public &Si Interest In tho contest up to fover licat. Miss Baird knocked into a cocked hat tho calculations of thoso who placed tho winners ssoro at 100,000 by poll ing 22,000 votos and running hor total rocord up to nearly 10,000 abovo that figure. Judging from tho street talk occasioned last night by tho sudden increase many peoplo oxpectod to-day's report to show a big incrcaso in tlio voto of Miss Stein or Miss W'asloy, but contrary to such expectations tlio voto was exceedingly light and only runs a little over 2,000 for all contestants yesterday. Tho expectations wero justifiable and weio not realized bocauso certain contestants aro holding back their strength, lloforo tho" closo of tho contest on Saturday evening thero will bo some wonderful surprises. But three days will bo left after this Issuo iu which tho contestants must show their hands and what a showing it will bol The present grand total will bo loft In tho shade. Peoplo who aro not directly luterostod in tho contest havo only a Blight idea of the battlo that is going on and when all forces ovontually como in with their ballots tho eyes of many will bo extended in amazement. Tho management of this contest wishes the public to distinctly understand that it lu no way countenances tho bolting which has at tached Itself to tho affair, on the contrary it regrets that betting has been ludulged in. This branch of speculation has run into high figures. Tho latest bet is ono of $50 oven that Miss Baird will lead Miss Stein by 10, 000 votes when tho contest closes. Peoplo who make wagers on this contest assume a blind risk. Tho figures which now appear opposite tho names of tho respective contestants form no criterion by which the winner can bo guaged. There aro thousands upon thousands of -voter in store at sevoral quarters and without knowing what they amount to and by whom they aro held an outsider is very foolish to risk his money in bets.

EXTEND THE PAVING. Malu Street Should ho l'aveil From Cherry to Con', That portion of Malu strcot, botwoon Ceutro and Cherry, on tho Fourth, when all Band and other wasto materials aro removed, will prosont a neat appearance Contractor Grant has stated that ho will havo tho strcot in condition by that timo for tho big parado. Tho action of Council iu push ing tho paving question to a successful termination, at tho suggestion of thoHEUAXD and tho hearty co-operation of tho property holders lu that vicinity, has mot with tho approval of all taxpayors, and to further oxtend tho work would Bcom a wiso thing. Tho property owners on Main street, uortli of Ccntro, havo not yot obtalnod sufficient Blgners to warrant tho paving of that square. It is to bo hoped that matters will reach definite shapo by noxt wcok, when Contractor Grant's present contract will havo oxplrod. To decido now, before tho Messrs. Grant have removed their men and materials to another town, would greatly oxpodlto mitters, and would also place tho main thorouchfaro nf this town in a condition that would not roquiro an expenditure for repairs for many yoars. Among tho property owners north of Centro street aro many enterprising and progressive citizens. Tlio latter should tako tho navlne question in hand and push it to a successful termination without delay. Tho examplo of their neighbors iu tho lower squares thoy could follow with much credit to themselves and tho borough. U8E DANA'S SAR9APARILLA, ITS "THE KIND THAT CUBES." Anna M. Dengler LIUie 11.

I suffered such agony that I could hardly stand un. As soon m !hin i applied two Allcock's Porous Plasters, one over each kidney, and laid down.
