Witness said he re- plied: “Why, of course they do.” Witness said that when the publication was made Murray, the man in whose office the forg- ery was done, threatened to make an exposure of the whole thing if there was not # retraction made at once. Murray had said he would make an affidavit that it wasa forgery if he did not get the Paper buck, He had gone to the governor and told him that Murray was goin to make an affidavit and that they would all catch it for all they were worth, “IN A TIGHT HOLE.” The governor had told him that he had not intended that it should be published, as a man had come and got it from his secretary when he was away. The witness had asked who the man was, but the governor had not replied. The governor had said: “Old man, we have got our- selves in a tight hole.

Mrs. HL 8. Ellis of Philadelphia seems to be the leading spirit in the new movement and she is = arranging the details of a national convention , of the dissenters to be held in Cleveland on ee ae January 22, where the first society was formed some fifteen years ago. Mra. Ellis was one of SRWELER AND SILVERSMITE, the earliest and most indefatigable workers in the union, for many years the secretary of the 1215 PREMA AVR Philadelphia society and a state organizer, After the Washington convention, seven years Estedlished 1840, $23 | ago, when politics began to assume form in the conventions, she withdrew from the union, identified herself with the Woman's temper- ance evangelical alliance, composed of Phila- delphia women who also disapproved of the political bias in the parent society, and has since been their secretary and most efficient worker. Mrz. Ellis, in speaking of the prospects and purposes of the new society, says that in her opinion the dissenters number thousands rather an hundreds and that the political work of the union has greatly depleted its ranks. “We are really the original and genuine W.C.T.U. people,” Mra, Ellis says, “though when the convention is held, we will probably be chris- tened the non-partisan W.C In the early days there was no woman's suffrage agitations or political alliances, but simple work for the cause of temperance alone, The call for the convention is dated at Cleve- land, Jaunary 6, and signed by the following representative women: Mrs. Ellen J.

The outrageous sentence of Mr. Parke is to form the subject of much questioning of the ministers when parliament meets. Labouchere is to lead the attack and will, in accordance with his original intention, discuss the whole question of the Cleveland street scandals and the supineness of the authorities in connection therewith. Particularly will he dwell upon the questionable proceedings of Judge Hawkins, who turned out the regular judge in order that he might try the case, and the bitterness of whose comments equaled that of a prosecuting counsel. Parke may have been misled, but no one who knows him doubts he went into this matter solely with the idea of purging London, if possible, of unspeakable crimes and of bring- ing the inhuman perpetratora to justice. Un- der these circumstances Hawkins scarcely acted with judicial deliberatian when he gave Parke twelve months’ imprisonment, ‘he feeling among the segnlacs may be gauged from the fact that Lord Euston was loudly hissed on leaving court, Some journaliste are today speculating as to whether the conservative Standard has not also laid itself liable to prose- cution for libel in observing, as it did this morning: “We have no sort of sympathy with the Prosecutor, Lord Euston, who admitted quite enough about his own tastes and pursuits to show that he has Ming lenge claim to the respect of persous of decent life.’ ‘uston admitted during the cross-examina- tion that he went to Cleveland street under the impression that “‘poses plastiques” meant an exhibition of nude women. ther that is justification enough under England’s absurd ibel laws for asserting that the noble lord has little claim to the respect of persons of decent life is an open question. RUSKIN IS INSANE. The Great Art Critic’s Brain Gives Way at Last. ‘London Special to New York Herald, John Ruskin, the great leader in English critical literature, has become hopelessly in- sane, . There has been a great deal of whispered talk in the upper art circles of London for months past concerning Mr. Ruskin’s condition and the peculiar circumstances by which he is en- vironed, There has been no public comment on the matter because of the general desire among his most intimate friends— Swinburne, Jones and others—to have nothing said about it, Now, however, the removal of his publisher from Orpington to London and the change in the sale of Ruskin’s books from the no discount system, which he instituted, to the ordinary methods prevailing in the book trade, together with other circumstances, make further secrecy impousible, GRADUALLY FAILING FOR YEARS. The story of the great man’s breakdown, as told by a gentleman who for many years has | been on intimate business and private relations | with Mr. Ruskin, is as follows: “Mr, Ruskin’s | mind has been ‘gradually failing for seven or eight years, The first public suspicion of the | fact occurred at Oxford in 1886, when, after delivering several lectures of a series, he broke down during the delivery of one and became incoherent on the platform and greatly exer- cised the feelings of the sympathetic audience. He delivered no more lectures there and the matter was hushed up, His health improved, and in 1888, the occasion of bis last visit to London, he went the academy, Grosvenor and er galleries, in company with Oscar Wilde and was never more perspicuous in com- ment or brilliant in conversation. At this time he said he should not immediately return to Brentwood, his residence in Cumberland, and he took the place Sandsgate, in Kent, He then went to France, and, after spending some time at Amiens, went thence to Florence on a visit to Miss Alexander and seemed in good health. At Venice, however, he had an attack and broke down mentally. Mr. and Mrs, Severn, living at Brentwood, were sent for. In com- any with them and two ph sicians he was rought to the home of his lite at Brentwood. In November reports reached London of his having had a violent paroxysm, during which he broke all the windows of his room. Since that time he has lain in bed continuously. He refuses all except liquid food and manifests no desire to get up. He is steadily growing weaker and the probability is that he will never go out of the house again,” HIS RELATIONS WITH MRS. BEVERY. Mrs. Severn, Dr. Powers and two attendants now have Mr. Ruskin in charge, and all being | reticent in the matter very little is known here as to what goes on. Mrs. Severn, whose name bas been mentioned frequently of late, is a| Indy of fifty. She was an adopted child of an elderly lady, cousin of Ruskin'’s, and on the decease of the cousin became Mr. Ruskin’s only relative, with the exception of another cousin, Capt. Ruskin of the army. The two cousins have, however, not been on speaking terms for many | years. On the occasion of Mrs, Severn’s mar- riage with Severn, a water-color artist, Ruskin settled £1,700 pounds on Mrs, Severn. He conceived dislike to Severn soon afterward and for years Severn has not been permitted to live at Brentwood, though his wife has dwelt there continuously. They have lived together only during perivds of Mr. Ruakin’s visits abroad, BRENTWOOD AND ITS CONTENTS, Mr. Ruskin has made a will leaving Brent- wood to her. The house is a wonderfal treas- ury of art and other valuables, whose value cannot be estimated. The owner in twelve years past has spent over £100,000 on artistic gems of various kinds, and these, in addition to his many presents from friends, made a won- derful collection. There are contributions from many great English and foreign arti ketches innumerable and a collection of precious stones, Among his remarkable possessions are three hundred missals, some of them illuminated and the rest in grisaille, which are worth a small fortune in themselves, as they comprise one- fourth of the entire number in existence. Brentwood and its contents comprise about all Mr. Ruskin’s estate. All his money has been expended there. The income from his books is between £4,000 and £5,000 per annum, coo Washington and the World’s Fair. Gen, Francis A. Walker bas written an article on the World's fair, which ‘will appear in the February Forum, Gen. Walker says: “The especial advantages of Washington in this connection would be—fitst, that this choice of a site would afford every visitor, domestic | or foreign, the double opportunity to visit the exhibition and the national capital at the same | time; and secondly that here are to be found, in the greatest profusion, alike the materials for a fitting representation of our archwology, our ethnology, our geology and our natur: history, which, as has been said, should be prominent features of the celebration, wher- ever held, and also the men who should organ- ize and conduct this part of the service, Regarding Washington as the seat of an in- ternational exhibition, I would venture the suggestion that the best season would be, not the usual one, namely, from May to November, but that from October around to April or May. This is the true time of Washington's beauty. The climate which is hardly endurable by the northern man during the long summer, is then, on the whole, mild andequable; and the period of the exhibition would thus be made to coin- ide with the session of Congress. The addi- onal expenditure which, with proper en- ineering arrangements, would be required’to ; raise the temperature of the halls and galleries of the exifibition to a proper point, on the cold days of winter, is a matter not worthy of con- sideration if Washington is, on all other ac- counts, the best place to be taken for this pur- pose, ———— -+e0—___ This Sounds Like John L, John I Sullivan said in New York Saturday night, regarding Slavin's challenge to fight for $12,500 a side, London prize ring rules. in America or Eargpe, or toe fight with small gloves, Police Gasetle rules, for $5,000 a side, at the California athletic club, provided the club Will add = $15,000 purse to the stakes: “These fellows make me very tired, they know perfectly well that Iam not at liberty to Fperedd on segs ht until _— it those issiasi: nubw they coens to the front with’ all certs ot proposit and Slavin knows I will not fight again under don rules, but he issues a chal- lenge justthe same.

Just afternoon Mrs. L. H.

From the Detroit Free Press. We extract the following from the last issue of “The Arizona Kicker.” Always in the Lead.—Last week we estab- lished a new department in “The Kicker”— that of answering questions concerning dis- puted points on games of chance, as well as making decisions thereon. These games will include eucher, old sledge, seven up, pedro, whist, keno, faro, roulette, &c., taking in, in fact, each and every game known to the sport- ing world. This department will be edited by an old gambler of thirty years’ experience and who carries seven knife wounds and the scars of four bullets as proofs of his literary caliber. The fact that such a department hit the bull’s- eye is evidenced by the fact that we have added twenty-one new subscribers within a week and they are still coming. We were intending to devote this space to religious news, but after looking the ground over and discovering that there was none to chronicle we § we way to the urgent demands of the boys and instituted the new departure. It is the general belief that this will do more to boom our town than if we had secured $50,000 for a new government building. All communications intended for this department should be addressed “Gam- bling department of ‘The Kicker.’” Write only on one side of the paper and do not attempt to write with blood. A Great Improvement.—Col. Obediah Shaw, our popular register of deeds, has presented us with anew 38-caliber revolver of Smith & Wesson make, as a token of his esteem and af- fection, and we feel as proud as a boy with hig first pair of boots, We have been, as some of our friends know, greatly hampered in our editorial work pita | the last year by an old-fashioned revolver whic! could never be depended on in an emergency. It was out of Hie aed all along the line, and when we brought itdown onaman we never felt sure which of us would getthe contents. It was also too large for our pistol pocket, and on three or four occasions the other man had opened fire before we could get it out. When Arkansas Bill met usin front of Taylor's bank one day last summer and opened fire he had pulled the trigger three times before we could et our old shooting-iron on line with his left ung. We didn’t much expect to drop him then, 4s the hammer was out of true, but when we pulled he tumbled, and he lived long enough to tell us that he had made the mistake of his life when he set out to remove the edi- torial head of Arizona's great weekly news- paper. ‘This new weapon adds to our editorial zeal and enterprise and puts “he Kicker” on a more certain foundation. We have had only one week's practice and yet we can draw it and send two bullets ripping’ through a fellow-be- ing’s carcass while un average school boy can get bis mouth puckered to begin the firat line of Henry Clay’s great speech, We ehall not be satisfied until we have doue a little better than that—five seconds better. Meanwhile, any one kering for our scalp can find us at the usual place, prepared todo fhe best we can under the circumstances, it Resulted.—We were born with a spirit pf fair play in our composition, which has never grown less, We want to see everybody and everything have a fair show. For this reason, when half dozen of our prominent citizens came tq us one day last week and suggested » necktie party to remove ‘Cowboy Jack,” as he calls himself, from his sphere on earth to one agreat deal higher up, we suggested that he first be given a show to inflict his presence on the people of Tombstone or Tucson. He had been with us three weeks, terrorizing old men, or kill him, e parties the | Women and boys by his wild shooting and being too ready with his pop when a dispute arose in asaloon. ‘The assertion of our lop- eared Hieey geletd that we wanted to save him until he had subscribed for “The Kicker” is a declaration worthy of Satan himself, It was suggested that we call upon the gen- tleman named within the quotation marks, and throw outa hint that he had better walk, We did so. He received us with chilling politeness, listened to our words of wisdom and then gave us thirtecn seconds to get down three pair of stairs. As he had the drop on us, we got; and 48 he didn’t shoot, it is likely that #¥e saved a second or two, We warned him what the re- sult would be, and the result has resulted. On Tuesday night a score or more of us leading citizens made a call on Cowboy Jack. He was somewhat surprised, but would have doue well enough had he been given time. He was taken from the O.K. saloon to Hangman’s Tree, given the usual time to undergo a change of eart, and then hauled up and left to his re- flections, We spoke to him personally just be- fore he was lifted, referring to our former con- versation, and it pleased us to hear him repl that we were dead right in our deductions, fa that if he had his life to live over again he would subscribe for “The Kicker” and pay at least two years in advance, = <2. A War Over Kissing Games. A bitter church war is in progress at Digh- ton, Mass., because the pastor of the “Brick Church” has put a stop to public kissing. The church sociables were veritable kissing bees, and the sport was not indulged in exclusively by the younger people, either, Old spinsters Were just as enthusiastic over it as were the young ones, When Rev. Asa Dyer acceptedthe pastorate he immediately declared that there should be no more kissing at church sociablea, The result was pandemonium and persecution without end. About the only collection which was ever taken up for some time was one of empty rum bottles which reckless young men left in their pews. The voice of the faithful pastor was often drowned by the hissing sound made Uy slow kisses on the back of the hand, Powder was burned at the very door of the church; smoke was blown through the aper- tures during “service, and bundreds of like tricks were played. Finally a deputy sheriff drove one young man out of town for insulting the pastor, and the overt acts have been stopped, for the time being at least. soe A Plot Against the Czar. London Special to the New York World. The latest report about the czar is that he bas taken to drink and daily consumes incre: ble quantities of champagne. The report has doubless as little or as much truth in it as any one of the many rumors previously in circula- tion, What is undeniable is the fact that the secret police at St. Peterburg are slowly un- raveling the tangled skeins of a plot of supe ing magnitude, in which are concerned all manner of people from humble clerks to aris- tocratic officers in the imperial body guard, Several of the latter have committed suicide to avoid arrest, and many of the poor tches now in prison would Itave done well to foliow that example.
