Bryson, editor of the Rockville Gimlet, is to try the old aaw of eating 30 quails in 30 days, on a wager of $100. If Bryson can’t eat half a dozen quails a day for 30 ‘daye and retain his normal condi- Gon, then we mies our guess. The only trouble about the matter will be that one quail will hardly be suf- ficient to whet his appetite ‘Two smooth young men at Kansas City madea bountiful crop off the verdant and trustful, by establishing ‘an office and advertieing for agents to sell a book on the Klondike gold fields. They required of each appli cant for an agency a cash deposit of $65, and for the collectora $25 to $100 The suckers were numerous and the young men are now mourn- ad by their victims If the proper conduct of the Asy lum was being jeopardized by con- flicting opinions and lack of harmony 4a the board, then there is no ques ‘tion of the wisdom of Governor Stephens’ action in promptly re organizing the board. ‘Che interest- of our eleemosynary institutions are above all personal or political inter -eate, and must so be observed.

Bourke Cockran, who prated thie democracy so long and loud at the democratic national convention at Chicago in 1892 when as the lead- ec of the New York delegation he ‘was Opposing the nomination of Mr. Cleveland, bas gone over to the re- publicins bag and baggage. He supported Platt’s candidate for mayor and the whole republican atate, county and city tickets. Bourke is one of those rule cr rain kind of politicians. It is remarkable the number of Papers claiming the sole credit of bringing the administration to iis knees in the Parific railroad steals. Lhe World and Journal of New York, the St. Louis Republic and any number of others are shouting “I ditit.” You are all wrong. No paper,single handed and alone,could have accomplished it, but the com bined democratic press of the nation made the ground tremble under the White House occupant. 4. H. Edwards in Sunday's K. ©. “Simes saye:—I think that the greatest speech I ever listened to in a democratic state convention was the one made at Jefferson City in 1892 by Hon. William C. Cowherd of Kansas City, when he placed Judge Gibson in nomioation for Governor It was a gem of oratory, and while it didnt win the nom ination for Judge Gibsor, it made Cowherd the most talked about man of the convention. Down at Springfield in 1888 Judge James B. Gantt, then on the circuit court bench at Clinton, made a great Speech in presenting the name of D A. DeArmond for judge of the su- preme court.

It 18 a great compliment to Mr Graves that the Attorney General should select Lim from the bar of the state to assist in the prosecution of these important caves. We think he did well and the wisdom of the selection will be mauifest at the couclusion of the trial QOAPABLE AND IMPARTIAL. Eldorado Sun, 28, The Lamar Dewocrat has suggest- ed the name of Congresemau D A. DeArmond es an addiuon to the list of embryou:c candidates for the governorship It seems to us that this groommg of candidates—thi- discussion of their respective merits at this early date is premature. A-~ far as we are aware, Mr DeArmond has no aspirations for gubernatorial honors. It is our judgment that he is very well satisfied with his present position; and it is also our belief that the p: ople of this cougressioval district are well satisfied with the faitbful and efficient ch»racter of bis services in the national I+g-slature, and as long as this condition of affairs prevaile, Mr DeArmond with ot doubt will be content to serve hem in his present capacity. However. should it eventuate that he shou'd become a candidute for the cffics of chief ex-cutive of th: state, we know of no man, in point f ability andin genera! qualsfica- tions fitness, who would bs better equipped than he for a capable and impartial discharge of that would devolve upon him in that important position He would make an ideal governor, and would be coatent to exercise the plain prerogatives of his «ffice with out usurping authority that did not not belong to him in the matter of controlling the polica machinery of eur cities and in conducting the affairs of the eleemosynary inetitu- tions of the state. HIS BOOM GROWING- Lamar Demecrat. The boom launched by the Demo- crat some time ago for Hon. D. A. D-Armond for Governor is gather- ing momentum as it goes. The papers of the state have taken it up and are shoving it along in the latest vuberna orial style. Congressman DeArmond is getting many boquets thrown at him by the democratic press of this state, and so much publicity is liable to embarrass our modest embryo governcr. against W. J Bryan’s Tribute. Logen, O, Oct. 29.—Of the death of Mr George, W J. Bryan said to- day: “I have just received a dispatch announcing the death of Henry George. The suddenness with which th» summons came will make more keen the sorrow which the public generally will feel at the death of 80 great, ®0 pure and so brave a man. By his own unaided genius he made his name familiar to the world around. Those who agreed with hie theories found in him an ideal leader, while those who oppos- ed bim admitted his moral courage. He was one of the foremost think- ers ofthe world His death will prove a lose to literature, society and politics.” Attorney General Crow is prose- cuting the claim of the State for about $8,000 against the estate of the late Dr. Duestrow, who was hanged for the murder of bis wife and child. This large amount repre- sents the sccrued costs in the Dues- trow trials. There seems to be no solution to the question of criminal costs Itis said that the Luetgert ease cost the State of Dlinois $20,-/ 000. How can the costs in cases tke | jthese be cut down and cartailed| | without a denial of justice? This is! a question for the law-maker.—! Jefferson City Tribune.

The Jeffersonian Democratic Candidate for Mayor of Greater New York Strickea Very Suddenly. HIS SON HIS SUCCESSOR. New York, October 29.—Henry George, Jeffersonian Democratic nominee for mayor of Greater New York, the most picturesque and ag- gressive figure inthe present munic ipal campaign, died from an attack of apoplexy ina rcom at the Union Square hotel at 4:45 o'clock this | morning This afternoon the Heary George campaign committee, after a brief Meeting agreed to substitute the name of Heury George, Jr., for that of his distinguished father as the Jeffersonian democratic nominee for mayor.

Not long after he had reached the hotel Mr. George retired with Mrs George, in room 22 of the hotel. | About 3:30 o'clock Mrs. George was awakened to find Mr. George eitting in an arm chair. “Iam not feeling quite comfort | able,” said Mr. George to bis wife “Won't you go back to bed?” inquired Mrs George, anxiously “I will sit here awhile,” was the response. Mrs. George at once grew ansious | as to her husband's condition. Mr. George gradually grew ines herent and lapsed into semi con sciousness. Mrs. George was now thorough!y alarmed and called her son, Heary George, Jr., from an adjoining rocm. Frank Stevens was also called in. A call was sent to Dr. Kelly of 117 East Fifty-ninth street and he came without delay. Mr. George was ti sndall efforts to revive him failed.
