AND TEA
Man, supplied with reasoning and dis
cerning powers, may improve his con
dition by the exercise of these faculties.
This can be applied with very good
effect in the purchase of Coffees and
Teas. A good cup of Coffee depends
not only on the making but the brand
of Coffee, the grade, the roasting and
preparation are very important factors.
We feel confident that we can meet all
those requirements. A delicious cup
of Coflee is a certainty if you use
our Fancy Blended Coffee.

The Ax-President Announces Ills Matri
monial Candidacy.
YILL BE MARRIED AFTER LENT.
Mrs. Diminick, a Niece of the First Mrs.
Harrison, and Who Often Assisted at
White House Receptions, Will he
Stepmother of Her Cousins.
New York, Jan. 18. The fact thnt Gen
eral Harrison had an Important state
ment to mnko drew a largo crowd of poli
ticians nml others to thu corridors of the
Fifth Avonuo hotel last night. Many ol
tho politicians expected that Genernl Har
rison would make a declaration as to his
candidacy for president, nnd were disap
pointed when thoy heard that tho goncrnl
talked of matrimonial affairs instead ol
politics. At tho appointed tlmo Mr. Tib
hltts, tho general's private secretary, made
the following stntomont in his room,
whero ho received tho members of the
press:
"General Harrison nuthorlzos the nn
nouncomeut that hn nnd Mrs. Ulmmlcli
HEVJAMIN 11AUKISOX.
are engaged to bo married, and that the
marrlago will not take pluco until aftoi
lont."
When U10 secretary ilnl3hed reading the
announcement ho refused to say anything
further, other than that ox-President Har
rison would probably leave for Indlannp
oils, returning to Washington In tlmo to
nrguo tho Stnnford law suit.
Mrs. Dlmmick, to whom tho general is
engaged, Is better known in Indianapolis
nnd Washington
than in Now York.
During tho llfo ol

ill and prior tc
her death. That
a favorite with the
MRS. DIMMICK.
Mrs. Diminick wn
then president in Washington is without
a doubt. At all state functions sho re
ceived with Sirs. Harrison when nllve, and
acted in her place lator when sho was sick.
It is understood that tho step wus norf
taken by General Harrison without con
sulting his children, of whom he is very
fond.
Mrs. Diminick is 40 years of age, tail,
and a strikingly handsome brunette.

Bp'ilon of the dennrorlal lnvcstlgntlng
committee wn replete with geimntloiinl
testimony, and was confined to the abuses
wild to Imvo crept Into the pollou burenu.
Evidence w.n submitted against HoiKe
Sergeant Saddlngton, of tho Chestnut
Hill sub-station and formerly of tho Six
teonth police district, to the effect that he
had feloniously assaulted a 7-year-ohl
daughter of Robert J. Koop, of German
town nnd now of Wilmington, Del. It was
said that onmptatut was in ado at head
qunrters, but nothing bolng done, Snd
dlngton was arrested. This was about four
ypar, ago. The grand jury found a truo
bill against tho accused, but theca-ohos
never yet been brought to trial. Tho wit
nesses wcro Mr. Hoop, tho child and Dr.
Weaver.
Julia Crow, who for twenty years kept
one of the lowest nnd most notorious
houses in tho slum section of tho Second
district, next testified. Since August,
through tho Christian League, sho has been
living respectably in another part of the
city under her proper name. Sho said po
licemen camo to her house every nlghtnnd
got from $1 to t2 each time, and also con
sprtcd with the women. She said that men
nnd boys voted from horhouso Irrespective
of how long thoy lived there.
Thero wero thirty-one houses, sho said,
of a similar character around her, and
when any of them got Into trouble a Mr.
Simpson, a South street jeweler, was sent
for. William Harrington, an employo ol
the recorder of deeds olllco, acted for Simp
son. Tho witness Bald when nny of the
houses wero raided Simpson had to be
paid, through Harrington, to go bail fot
the girls, after which but fow cases went
to trial. If ball was not forthcoming the
girls wore sent to tho house of correction,
and If a discharge was wanted fc!5 had to
bo paid Simpson. Witness said tho hear
ings were before Magistrate Kane, now de
ceased, and that Lieutenant of Police Gll
llngham usually stood behind him. She
never paid the latter any money, but heard
of sevuvaLweasions ho had received some.
Tho witness also said that since she hat
been living rospectablo sho was threat,
ened by Sp-clai Officers Thomas and Mc
Williams, of tho Seventeenth district, in
which sho Is now living. They told her
sho would havo to move, as Lieutenant
Glllfugunm had complained of her. She
went to the Christian League, and has not
since bocn disturbed.
Tostimony was given by ex-polleemen
of Lieutenant Tuttlo's district, the Elev
enth, to tho offect that ho had ordered po
licemen to go to "speak onsy" proprietors
and demand their vote and Influence nt
elections, on the grounds that tho polico
had not disturbed them. Other evidence
was given as to assessments of the police,
and also their activity in tho recent pri
mary olections in tho Ulovonth ward.
At the request of Lawyor Pettit tho
committee adjourned to muet at tho call
of tho chair. It was subsequently stated
that it would probably go to Pittsburg
next week or tho week after.

The candidates for nomination for borough
ollices are few this year. James Emanuel,
the proent incumbent, and Edward Mason
are the candidates for High Constable, and
William Keeves for Borough Auditor.
The committee decided that the primaries
shall ho held from (I to 8 p. m. on Fiiday.
21th in-t., at the following lespective places:
First ward, Kendrick House; Second,
farmers' hotel; Third, lleuj. Klcharda'
house ; Fourth, Peter Hiley's hou&o; Fifth
ward, Schmidt's hall.
All theso arrangements are mado under
Crawford county system rules and will bo
tho second enforcement of them. 1 jist year
the primaries were conducted vory bucccts
fnlly and satisfactorily tu all concerned
under them, and tho same result is expected
this year. The Standing Committee will
hao tickets printed for all the candidates
aud will distribute them at the polling places.
The primaries will be uomparitively tame
this year. There ill he no contest for nomi
nations in oither the Fir.--t, Fourth or Fifth
wards. All the interest ill centre in the
Second and Third winds. In the former it
will ho a contest for supremacy between C.
W. Denglor and Thomas liellis for Justice of
tho I'caco. Theie will he no other contest In
this wanl. Tho Tlilul will he tho main point
of interest and will centre on Council,
Justiio of the Poaco and Constable, James
II. Morgan opposing T. J. James, the present
incumbent, for thoCouucilnunlc humiliation;
William Kimmel opposing P. W. Hiersteiu,
the present Justice ; and John W. lllaker
opposing Thomas Tosh, the present Con
stable. Tho contests for nominations aro far less
in ntunbor than wero anticipated and is ac
cepted us a good omen by the Citizens, party.
It is believed that the contest, on foot are of
a nature that will not endanger the welfare
of the party's interests after tho primaries
and that, whatever may he the losult on tho I
21th inst., the Citizens voters will present a i
solid column at the polls on election day. 1
