POLITICAL TALK.
The contest for, Chief Uurgess in the
Citlsens ranks is an open one, and tho friends
of each candidate are worklnu earnestly for
their favorite. ,
The Supreme Court is now In session, hut a
decision in the Itorou jh Justices case is not
expected Wore next month.
The Ilepnlillcan caucus to name the suc
cessor to United Stales tfenntor Don Cameron,
it expected to lie held at Itarrishurg to
morrow evening.
Councilman Coakley, of the First ward,
has no opposition for re-uomination.
In the event of the Democrats controlling
Council, the following Rppolntuients are said
to he slated : James Binith, chief of police
and William Ilrenuan first lieutenant.
It is important thnt both paTttes make
good nominations for Chief Iturgess. The
town is sadly in need of an Executive that
will enforce the ordlnanew without fear or
! favor.
A rottsvllle exclmnge sugcests the names
of Charles J. Qulnn, of town, for Sheriff, and
! lleorge J. Wadllnger, Bpq., for Judge, as
probable Democratic nominees,
j IIcpresentAtivo Witman, of the Fourth
district, says he will Vote, for Wnnauinker.
This is no news; he was Always credited as
' s.im Losch's man.
The Democratic Standing Commute of
tlio county will he called together by Chair
man Lineawe&rei an Saturday, January
Kith, to elect a chairman and secretary.
The Democratic bosses in the Fifth ward
will hardly have clear sailing for their slated (
candidate for School Director. The man
they have selected is William llritt, and the
party workers do not take kindly to the
Idea of one or two men saying who they
shall vote for. The, friends of Thomai
McCuruiluk are working Industriously iu his
Interests, while tho (lemiaii element may
demand the nomination of John Dillen
schneiiler. Both of these men are candidates.
Shenandoah will have 48 votes in the noxt
Republican county convention.
There is a nice Democratic scheme being
worked In reference to the Ilorough Jtislicu
nomination. A young Democrat is mentioned
in this connection and if he secures the
nomination and election, au ex-official is to
secure tho coin mission.
Those who profess to know say tho Demo
crats will nominal Jerre Toomoy and Will
iam Shoemaker as Ilorough Justices. The
friends of 'Squire Cnrdln, howovor, arc just
as confident that his name will uppcar on tlio
ticket.
If tho voters attend the primaries in the
different wards good nominations will be
inado. Otherwise they will have no cause
for complaint if tho nominees do not suit
thorn.

The list of applicants for license to sell
liquor, as published, mates Interesting read
ing to the people of Shenandoah, ns it appears
101 citizens aro anxious to minister to tho
wants of tho public, and as usual there, will
be several new ones granted, although
Lawyer Ilollopcter has filed rcmoint rnnccs tu
several. The number of applicants for retail
llcensoby wards is: First, B2; Second, 31
Third, 40; Fourth, 0; Fifth. 2(5. Should
these all bo granted Shenandoah will have a
drinking place for ovcry H3 men, women aud
children in tho town, estimating ourpopula
tion at 18,000. Last year wo had 133 liceused
places, or ono for every 135 inhabitants, at
the same estlmato of population. But
estimating that there will bo an iucrcaso of
but 7 places this year, making 140 in all, wo
should certainly not suffer for liquid refresh
mcnts as there would be ono placo for overy
128 inhabitants without regard to sex or age.
How all those places are to bo made to pay is
a question that puzzles many people Hut
tho fact that tho number of applicants has
increased shows that cither tho business must
payor that hope, which is said to spring
eternally iii tho human bre.ist, buoys up the
spirits pf tlioso who are willing to put up
about $200 in cash for the privilege. The
Brooks license law will very likely bo under
consideration by the Legislature at this
session for amendment, and ono of the most
practical and for tho best interests of those
coucerued aB well as for tho genoral public
would bo ono specifying how many inhabit
ants there shall be to each house licensed.

AN OUTCAST'S DEATH.
III ed Ht the I'ottsvlllo Hospital and the
llody Is Vitelnlmed.
Casper Schmder, who said he had no homo,
hat bad relatives living on White street,
Shenandoah, died at tho Pottsvllle hospital
last evening at 8 o'clock from injuries re
ceived on Saturday evening" by Iwlng run
over at Newklfk, on the Schuylkill Valley
branch of the Heading railroad. Sohratier
was run over and both legs were bsdly
crushed. He was removed to the Pottsvillo
hospital. Ho 'appeal oil In good condition
yesterday morning aud it was decided to
amputate both feet. Drs. George It. Halhir
stadtand George Farquhar performed the
operations, and during tho duy the man
seemed to improve. Toward evening, how
ever, he began to sink and death followed.
This morning the Pottsvllle hospital
authorities telephoned to the llKitAt.D Re
questing the paper to hunt up the relatives or
friends of the deceased and ascertain
whether they wished to claim the body. On
White street no ono interested could bo found
and an investigation on North West street,
where a Schmder family resides, also resulted
fruitlessly. Tho latter family Is not related
to the diseased. A continued search led, to
the discovery nt 288 West Raspberry alley of
Mrs. Sarah Schroder, who is classified as a
widow In the town directory. Tho woman
slated that her husband's name was
Oasper and that sho drovo him from her
house thirteen years ago on account of his
dissolute habits. He was a cigar maker by
trade. She did not see him after he left tho
house. Sho heard ouo timo he was employed
at Orson Mountain and. tho last time sho
heard of him ho was said to be peddling
cigars at Lebanon. The description the
woman cave of her husband tallied with
that furnished by tho hospital. ' Schrador
was a Gennan 56 years of age. Mrs.
Sehrader said she could not claim the body,
as she was too poor to bury It. Sho lives on
support received from the Directors of tho
Poor. A marriod daughter resides with her.
The daughter has a ohiid ono year old and
was deserted by her husband nine months
ago. The Pottsvllle hospital authorities wero
informed of tho result of the investigation
aud they stated thnt Schrndor's body would
be sent to tho State Anatomical Society nt
