Democrats here are unanimously of the opinion that Senator Sherman did the Democratic party, not only in Ohio, but throughout the country, a great | favor when he lugged the tarill' in as an Issue. Those who occupy positions which enable them to speak with au thority. say that with the tarilT for an issue in Ohio, the election of a Demo cratic legislature is a certainty ami that of Governor Campbell extremely proh- j able. It is hoped that Sherman. Mc- Kinley and Forukcr will succeed in their announced intention to make the tat ill an issue in the national campaign. The { prospects for the election of a Demo cratic president next year have been steadily growing brighter for some time, but with the Republicans committed to the restoration of McKinhyism. tin \ would become duzzlingly brilliant. Tin sentiment of the country is overwhelm- | ingly in favor of the Democratic idea of a low tarilT. The principal object these Republicans have in view is. doubth to compel their party to nominate Me- j Kinley by making McKinleyism tin- 1 issue. On the twent\ -ninth of thi mouth J there will be a change in the command- ! or of the United States army. On that j day Lieutenant General Scholield will reach the age limit for retirement and one of the major generals will he named as commander of the army. There will be no promotions on account of tin change, as the grade of lieutenant gen- : eral ceases to exist upon the mtirmeut • f General Scholield. General Nelson A. Miles is tin', senior major general, bnt his selection as commander of the army is not regarded as certain. The presi dent can, if ho desires, select one of the j other major generals. At a meeting of the Ohio Democratic Association held here this week a lett- i was read from Governor Campbell, j which created much enthusiasm. Gov ernor Campbell said that he intended t make a vigorous and aggressive cam paign and expressed the opinion that the result at the polls would largely de- j pond upon the loyalty and activity of ; Democrats. Members of the association j say that it will be no fault of theirs if | every Ohio Democratic voter temporari- j ly residing in Washington boos not go | home and vote, for Campbell's luck is j going; :to pull him through. The opinion of Senator Mills, of Texas, on the silver question. which was made public just before he left for homo, after having spent the summer in Washington supposedly engaged in literary work, has been much talked about, especially as he had been generally regarded as u silver man. His conversion to "sound money" has greatly pleased the adminis tration men. who say that his letter de lining and defending his position wlil he of great value to the "sound money" Democrats of Texas Needless to say the silver Democrats do not take thai view of it. Secretary Lamontwent to Gray Gables this week to see President Cleveland, and, although tho secretary said his visit had no political significance, it is safe to say that their conversation was not confined to the health of Rahy Mar lon and other family matters. There are several other subjects upon which t hey probably had much to say to each other and a stenographic report of what they did say would unquestionably be in teresting. Secretary Carlisle has set the r'Oth Inst, to hear arguments in the appeal from this decision of Comptroller How ler in the sugar bounty cases. Kx-Sen ator MAnderson, counsel for the Ne braska beet sugar men, takes the ground, that Mr. Howler's action in citing the claims for sugar bounty to the court of claims was illegal. S. There is more eatan h in th; 3 seel ion of the country than a'l other • "in. It traverses the foot hills of the Cahuenga range aiul has an elevation of between two hundred and four hundred feet. In breadth It is perhaps three miles. The waters of the Pacific arc visible from it and the proximity of the ocean lias, of course, something to do with banishing frosts. During the win ter season this tract produces tomatoes, peas, beans and other tender vege j tables, and here the lemon flourishes, a j tree that Is peculiarly susceptible to cold. Tropical trees may also he cultivated with Success, and in connection with this fact it is interesting to know that a part of the favored territory has been acquired by Los Angeles for park pur poses, and It is only a question of time when the city will have the unique dis tinction of possessing the only tropical park in the United States. Strange to say, only the midway region of the Cahuenga range is free from frost, the lower part of the valley feeing occasion ally visited. Electioneering in England. An American who saw a good deal of the political excitement in England during the recent elections and who at tended many of the meetings says that Chamberlain was the most interesting of the speakers. Ilis composure on the platform in tlio face of insults un dreamed of in American politics was marvelous. 44 Judas I" ''Renegade!" "Traitor!" "Toady!" "Villain!" the crowd shouted, but the worse the in sult, the more virulent the abuse, the more the orator seemed to like it. He stood calmly before the mob without a tremor, and although every sentence was interrupted with vilification he went on to the end of his address with as much calmness as if he had been in i the house of commons. As for his per suasiveness, "it was a shell-game speech all the way through and you were always seeing the hall when it wasn't there." Politics is about the one thing j the world over. A Hopeful Prediction. Ssometlme in the not far-distant fu ture the railroads which may hope for the tangible sympathy and patronage of really enlightened people will not burn soft coal at the front end of their trains, and blow the products of com bustion through the windows at the passengers whose money they live for. It lias been possible, suys the L. A. \V. Bulletin very correctly, for the last fifty years to prevent this nuisance, but so long as people would stand tlio abuse the railroad companies have thought it was economy to let them, i People travel now mostly because they ! want to arrive at their destination. W hen smoke, soot and dust are done away with, many people will travel fur the real pleasure of traveling. The next North Carolina legislature is to be asked to set right an apparent notablo injustice resulting from the anti-miscegenation law of the state. This law prohibits the marriage of a white person to a person of Indian blood to tin; third generation. The of ; ficial stenographer of the last state | convention of teachers at Raleigh was j a highly educated and accomplished I young woman of half Cherokee blood. A prominent architect of Raleigh fell in love with her, and they were mar ried outside the state iu order to avoid violating the North Carolina law. They discovered, however, on return ing to llalcigh that they were subject to prosecution in returning to the state. The legislature Is to he asked j to legalize their marriage. A queer trade is followed by half a dozen sidewalk merchants outside the Philadelphia house of correction. Every person discharged from the in stitution receives on leaving a new pair of shoes. Traders lie in wait for the discharged prisoners and offer them a pair of old and comfortable shoes and twenty-five or fifty cents for their new pair. In a great majority of ; cases the trade is made. The house of j correction shoes are well made and ; si rang, and the traders got a good price ! fur them from worltingmen. GROUSE and other game birds are un u ually plentiful in Oregon and Wash ington this year, and are exception ally large and plump. In some regions the grouse are sp tame that they can b knocked over with rocks and sticks. The increase is attributed to the open weather of last winter and spring iu t!:e northwest, which was very favora ble to breeding, and also to tho better observance of the game laws by the settlers and hunters, who began to fear the total extermination of game birds as a result f indiscriminate slaughter. A PROMINENT American physician thinks it amazing to see so many people li aveling for their health with a rapid ity that suggests that they have been I t hot out of a gun. Haste is never | h xiltliy under any circumstances. Uu- I h ss perhaps it be in such a ease us get : ting out of the way of a mad bull. THE persons of African descent in the Unite <1 States are classified accord ing to the degrees of colored blood into G. ::;7,980 blacks, 1)50,089 mulattoes, 105,- l'-5 quadroons and 00,020 octoroons.

COPYRIGHT. 1895. There appears to exist considerable misapprehension as to Air. Cleveland's real position with reference ; to a third term, j fyM '-KM This is all the j ■i II ' jar' mOrG CUriOUS * 11 " attitude lias been made clear an< * P u^^e weeks ajfo and ought not to be at this nHMmu time a matter SITUATION. OF TLOUU IT HAS been wondered, for instance, that Mr. Cleveland makes no utterance himself on the subject. But the president has a high idea of the dignity of his posi tion and on that account would never j dream of placing himself in the posi of Miss Betty Baxter who refused Capt. Crown before ho asked her. Again the assertion that William C. Whitney lias been chosen as Mr. Cleveland's polit ical legatee is based upon nothing more terrible than the faet that the former was in tho letter's confidence from the start and lias been written to freely by the chief magistrate upon the subject of third terms in general. Mr. Cleveland is believed to consider it almost insult ing to the people of the country to form ally refuse to allow his name to ; be considered for n third term and Ids official declination of one would imply a derogatory impression to the contrary. The president, in deed, is very much hurt at the attitude lie has been made to assume by certain indiscreet southern friends of ids. It is even alleged that he has purposely been thus cmburrassed by not a few of his p.-.cudo friends. Accordingly, it can be positively stated that all third term talk is sheer burlesque. No one believes in it who is friendly to the president. Mr. Whitney has no arrangement with any one to secure the falling mantle. Be sides, Mr. Cleveland is going abroad In 181)7. For the past five years he has talked of tho pleasure and profit lie would derive from foreign travel. 110 knows next to nothing of lands outside , of his own, and lie is particularly eager ; to visit Japan and China. Among the j men with whom Mr. Cleveland lias j talked over these projects are Col. 1 Lamont, Mr. Thurber and Richard Olney. The president would spend : about two years abroad. Now, however, Mr. Cleveland feels ! that lie lias been made just a trifle ■ ridiculous. lie simply cannot do any thing. It would be absurd for liim to refuse a third term. It would be in sano to express a willingness to accept one. The presidential situation is thus Arthurian in that the hand of destiny rises out of tho ocean of politics with no answering palm to grasp it. Tho simile is Speaker Crisp's, and now deemed very apposite. Mlbb Whitney's Wedding. Tho latest arrangements for Miss Whitney's wedding indicate that it will be a very grand affair.

Tlio wedding dress is to be white satin trimmed with pearls and the veil will he surmounted by tho famous jeweled diadem for which Mrs. W. C. Whitney J i understood to have paid sixty thou sand dollars. Young Cornelius Vander bilt will be an usher and Miss Alta Rockefeller a bridesmaid. Shortly he fore her own wedding Miss Whitney will net as a bridesmaid at tlio coming Rockefeller wedding. Whatever may have been thought of the Sloane affair, 1 the Whitney one promises to exceed it iu splendor. Mr. and Mrs. Grovcr Clcveladd will certainly attend and one of Gov. Morton's daughters is also to be a bridesmaid. As a gathering of great personages, the nuptials of this young lady will live long in social annals as a very field of the cloth of gold among occasions of the sort. The cost will beggar calculation and Cupid will bathe in golden fountains indeed. Grunt to Ituu Again. It is now a well-understood thing in i Tammany circles that Hugh J. Grant w ill be nomi r nated us the or- i ganization's can- ! didate for the )M : ir m 21 ,v ° r a °* ' election time j {comes arou nd J I once more. This j J 1 V\4 ' may seem like a i y | far look ahead, .// ft hut it has been decide d upon, j MRS. GRANT'S THREAT. Mr. Grant is be lieved to deserve a vindication as well as a reward for his heroism in hauling J himself into the, breaeh at a doubtful time. As Mr. Strong is comparatively ' sure of a renomination likewise, there is every prospect that the fight will he simply the old one over again. Mr. Grant's wife has taken her place | already as a leader in Tammany social circles. She has all possible admira tion for her husband and every confi-i deuce in his political future. She has ' made him many friends and the opinion i freely expressi d that Hugh J. Grant 1 lias immensely bettered his position iu the world by h!s marriage. For one thing 1 lie is anxious to bestow a higher code of ethics upon Tammany and he lias been losing many of the traits | which in former days made him cou j spicuous as a leader among the boys. ' (irant professes to be one of the boys > no longer and his wife has been the in ! strument of that momentous alteration :in him. Mrs. Grant lias said that what ! ever it is right for her husband to do is | right for her to do, and that if Mr. I Grant becomes one of the boys so will she. So Mr. Grant may feel under ob ligations to behave like a very sedate j citizen. Thnt Alleged Gould Wife. Nobody now looks very seriously up on the attempt of a woman hailing fro m northern , New York to MjJ prove that she is ijSMf thewid ow of ajyl the late Jay have been nu- \ ef- J forts before, and were all tli o claimants trust- GOULD'S INDIFFER worthy the lato ENCE. wizard of Wall street would has been the champion bigamist of his day. Not one of the Gould heirs has conde- 1 scended to notice the claim thus sensa tional! j f set up. The Vanderbllt fam ily have licrefoforo boon the principal ' sufferer from these alleged wives. The late William 11. Vauderbilt was claimed by more than one woman not very long j after his death as her lawful husband, i Hut nothing more serious than offers of compromise resulted from such inci dents. Of course, it would occasion a tremendous sensation were these par tieular women's claims substantiated; I but the developments of the past two : weeks fail to reveal anything of the least tangible nature to make good the self-styled Mrs. Gould's allegations. As is known to New Yorkers there exists ' in the metropolis a bureau organized for the special purpose of affording to ; alleged millionaires' wives, for a con | sideration, financial support of an ade- I quate nature. This bureau is under- j stood to have looked into this claim | and to have then declined to afford it any support whatever. George Gould, I meanwhile, is away on his summer j resting vacation and pays no attention j | to claimants. HIIJJJHJ'H Ambition. Thomas F.

This lie will do because lie is very anxious to retain his present ambassadorial i dignities. Mr. Bayard feels an almost j boyish delight in his importance and prestige as our diplomatic representa tive in Great Britain. Ilis opportunity to distinguish himself has been taken advantage of to the full. Ilis unwill ingness to relinquish his post is also I due to a keen appreciation of its social I delights. lie has already made liim j .self very popular with Englishmen and I he would not like to come ingloriously home just as he began to warm, so to i.peak, to his work. Therefore all ns | M i tions that Mr. Bayard is in the field i for the presidential nomination of his | party are based upon a misunderstand j ing of his position. Influence upon the ! outcome he is eager to retain, but only j as a moans to the retention of liis pros ! cnt. position in case a democrat suc j ceeds Cleveland. •Harmony la the Police Hoard. There will be no disagreement what ever among the members of the police board of New York hereafter.

The * board deems it- KOOSEVELT s BLACK i self an object BEAST. lesson, so far as policy is concerned. It behooves it to demonstrate that the po lice of a great city in this country can be absolutely divorced from politics. ; Commis-iiouer Grant is known to have taken this view and to have declared that under no circumstances will he ■ com.out to be placed in antagonism to his colleagues. I It has just leaked out as a result of j this little episode that President Cleveland was mueli opposed to the se ; lection of Mr. Roosevelt as a member of New York's police board. This j was owing to his anxiety to retain the great Theodore in the na tional civil service commission. He | sent for Mr. Roosevelt and asked him j to give up the idea of becoming a New- York police commissioner, but tho lat ter declared that he had already i pledged his word. It appears further j that the other commissioners were ap pointed with the understanding that : they would make Mr. Roosevelt presi dent of the board. It may be of inter i est to bicyclers to know, by the way, ! that among the things upon which this much-talked of hoard is a unit is oppo , sition to the use of bloomers on what are deemed improper occasions. That 1 is, the commissioners do not object to j bloomers upon genuine bicycle girls, but New York of late has witnessed ! various unseemly and spectacular uses ! of bloomers, and this new problem will i bo very summarily dealt with.

I DURING the hot week in May the rails on the drawbridge over the Pas saic in Newark expanded so as to lock ! , the draw. ON July 18 the Empire state express ' rau from Syracuse to Albany, one hun dred and forty-nine miles, in one hun dred and forty-nino minutes, including a stop of eight minutes at Utica. THE Pennsylvania company has a new rule which prohibits road agents from selling anything except news papers and periodicals on its Sunday i trains. ! THE Pennsylvania company has is sued a rule forbidding the use of freight j ears not complying with the federal , law concerning grab irons and the j height of the drawbars.

IN order to create travel for a branch line that is not doing very well, the : Detroit Citizens' Street railway com pany has made a two-and-one-half-cent j fare during tho hours from seven to J ten p. m.

SAID BY THE SCIENTISTS. A FRENCH medical authority asserts that death caused by a fall from a great height is absolutely painless. The mind I acts very rapidly for a time, then tin consciousness ensues. ASTRONOMERS calculate that the sur face of the earth contains 81,025,035 i square miles, of which 23,814,121 are ! water and 7,811,504 are land, tho water thus covering about seven-tenths of the earth's surface. ALFRED C. LANE writes that ten miles above the earth the cold is far below zero, while ten miles below the surface everything is red hot. This lat ter is not so certain. It is thought by some that the heat of the earth may he wholly due to absorption from the sun, and so may decrease sifter a certain depth has been reached. Music relieves muscular fatigue In man, says Prof. TarchanofE, of Hb. Pe- i tersburg, who lias boon experimenting on the subject from a purely physiolog ical standpoint.

THE song of the English male sky lark is best when the female is on the eggs. At such times he soars to great heights and sings rapturously. ONE of the most remarkable features of earthquake pulsations is their great duration. The originating earthquake may last but a few seconds, while the ground at a distance may rock gently through a small angle for hours. IT is not generally known that, size for size, a thread of spider silk is de cidedly tougher than a bar of steel. An ordinary thread will bear a weight of three grains.
