Bradshaw, on the ground of cruelty, and granted Mrs. Brad- shaw the guardianship, care and custody of the child of the parties, a girl of seven years. : Mrs. Bradshaw filed her petition the 7th of last March, setting. forth, that they- were married here August 3, 1885, the defendant being a native of Lignium, Fauquier county, Va. Mrs. Bradshaw charged that from the very night of their marriage her husband commenced a course of cruelty toward her, which continued until she left him, in 1802. In the divorce case of Sarah A. against John H. Hawkins, Judge Cox directed that the defendant show cause on the 2d of next month why he should not be adjudged guilty of contempt of court in failing to pay Mrs. Hawkins $5 for her support, the defendant being that much in arrears. pelle Missing Patrick O'Connor. James J. O'Connor. of No. 43 E_ street southeast is in New York looking for his brother Patrick, twenty-seven years old, who has been missing for nearly a week. Patrick had been here visiting his brother, and when he left he said he was going to Philadelphia, where he expected to go to work. James did not hear from_ his brother, and so he communicated with a friend, from whom he learned that Patrick had gone to Jersey City. Then he was in- formed that Patrick had not gone to a place in Jersey City where it was thought he would probably stop, and then it was stated that a body answering the description of Patrick had been found in the Hudson river. According to the New York Sun, James called on the police in that city yes- terday and asked for their help. The police here have heard nothing from O'Connor since he went to New York.

MAIL ADVICES FROM JAPAN YOKOHAMA, September. 27.—The -Tong Haks,' a powerful religious sect of Corean rebels, have attacked the Japanese troops at Tatku, southern Corea. Reinforeements have been sent to the Japanese from Seoul. . The Tong Haks constitute one of the most powerful. revolutionary .eleménts in Corea. ‘They aseribe.-the* precarious conditien= of Corea tra@e”ahd ‘tomimerce to the-présence of foreigners, ‘The Tong Haks early in the year;undertook the task of ridding Corea of foreigners. and threatened the Japanese as well a9 people of other -nafionality. Last year, incited by the Tong Has, ~30,000 Covearis ‘threatened to march on the Corean capital and expel ‘the foreigners therefrom. The movement was suppressed, but the teel- ing which then existed led to the disturb- ances which eventually brought about the war between China and Japan. MAIL ADVICES FROM JAPAN, interesting Notes Regar in the Orient. VANCOUVER, B. C., September 27.—The steamer Empress of Indla brings the fol- lowing advices from Japan: ~ Coiint, Yanagiawara Sakimitsu (Count Noble of Kyota), privy councillor, is dead, after a protracted fliers. He rendered dis- +inguished -serviece at-the time of the restor- ation of the emperor, who sent him to China to negotiate a treaty. He was also -nintster to St. Petersburg for several years. Noti‘ication “has been tssued from Pekin forbidding the imporiation of Japanese e In consequence prices have been apnormaily changed. The Italian cruiser Piamonte ts now en route from Italy to Corea. She is one of the most powerful in the navy. An ‘2ve-witness of tho battles at sakiwan and Asan states. that the Chinese are not skillful in shooting, their bullets being di- vected.-not- higher than three feet from the ground. They used smokeless powder and most of then were armed with xeven- shot repeating rifles. They seemed, however, to be unaccustom- ed to the use of the repeating ‘fifle, as, when ordered to fire, they discharged all seven of the shots in rapid succession. During the firing of these volleys the Japanese Cfficers ordered their men to lay down on the ground and then to rise and resh on the enemy in ‘the intervals while they were loading their rifles. These tac- tics were successful. Bight Japanese cooks, who were employed on a French cruiser and who landed re- cently at Che Foo, were instantly seized by: Chinese ‘soldiers and killed. + Rumored Purchase “of Chilean Ships. The rumor that the Chinese have pur- chased the Chilean navy is again revived in Yokchama. This tifhe it is stated the purchase inclvdes two new cruisers built by Armstrengs and they are expected short- ly. A native Japanese paper says that the British government has ordered Admiral Freemantle to watch closely the movements of the Japanese fleet during the war and that in pursuance of that instruction some British warshins alwavs follow the Japan- ese fleet and bring tidings to the flagships once or twice each @ay ‘The Japanese press condemns this action, claiming Great Britain is showing partial- ity to China. A Japanese spy disguised as a Chinaman has been found in the house of the nephew of the viceroy and commander of the arse- nal.at Port Arthur. The man was immedi- ately arrested and-is considered an import- ant capture, as the Chinese think now they have found how the Japanese possessed such accurate knowledge of their plans. Bounty for Japanese Heads. Inhuman barbarism marks the course of the Chinese army. The Chinese Taotal of Formosa offered a prize for Japanese heads. Coreans have. been enlisted and three Jap- anese heads transfixed on spears are re- ported to grace the walls of Ping Yang, and the heads of their foes were nailed to the gates of Whang Ju by Chinese. The North China Daily News also says that Chinese soldiers at several have been threatening women ink with insult and trouble may ensue very shortly. The imperial generosity of the Chinese emperor was characteristically displayed last month. It was deemed politic ‘to re- ward the extraordinary -valor of Gen. Teh and his army,-who, it is stated, slew no less than 5,000 Japanese from July 25 to the end of August. The general accordingly received gifts consisting of a gem peacock feather holder, small knife, a pair of large purses and a couple of cedar boxes. The common soldiers were by no. means over- looked, for another imperial edict, dated August 29, states that her majesty, the em- pres dowager, being most solicitous about the health of the army now stationed at Ping Yang, which have to endure heat and various other hardships in fighting battles, desires that chests of preventative, pills be handed to Li Hung Chang, who will for- ward with the greatest dispatch. to Gen. Teh for distribution among the armies. Europeans Volunteer. A number of Europeans in the customs serviee ‘have left Canton and gone down to Hong Kong in order to serve the imperial government in the war against Japan. Sev- eral of these have had torpedo and gunnery practice in the British navy and are prob- ably intended for similar work in the Chi- nese fleet. They are promised 150 taels a month during the war, and after the con- flict to be reinstated in the customs ser- vice if alive. If killed their next of kin will recetve four years’, full pay, 5,400 taels as compensation, guaranteed by the in- spector general. This is considered ridicu- lously cheap. ‘The Japanese have stringent orders to “spot and pot” every one of them. CALL IT A DRAW. the War Novel Manner in Which the Chinese Regard the Yalu Battle. An official of the Chinese legation said teday that information from the viceroy at Tien Tsin regarding the fight at the mouth of the Yalu river was that it was a drawn battle, and that both sides suffered equally. Regarding the Ping Yang land fight the Chinese admit defeat, but no details of the battle have-been received at the legation. No official confirmation has been received by the minister of the degradation of Li Hung Chang by the deprivation of his pea- cock feather and his yellow jacket. It is asserted that even should such be the case the viceroy still retains all the powers ex- ercised by him prior to his degradation. The bestowal of the decorations, it is ex- plained, is in the nature of rewards of merit, and the deprivation of them signifies disapproval of actions that may have been taken or policy pursued. pees ieee A Youthful Offender.

A Tammany man at one end, an anti- Tammany man at the other, with a what- is-it in the middle—this is the ticket which is intended to reconcile and unite the di- vided and demoralized democracy of this state. It is like chaos come again, and it will be more like it for the party in Novem- ber. \¢ roots and to keep the hair a natural Hall's Hatr Renewer $s the best tonle for the hair, nt is often - needed to nourish snd | THE NEWSPAPERS AND MR. iLL. Various Comments Made on the New York Nomination. From the New York Times (Dem.). Instead of turning thus hopefully to some rew leader of promise, whose advent might have opened a prosperous.era in the party's histery, the delegates in a heediess rush and with a yell nominated for the governor- ship David B. Hill, who is not a new lead- er, and under. whose management the party. cannot be said to have enjoyed prosperity. This, it must be copfessed, was a sorry outcome of all the efforts that hdve been made to put aside cayses of digeension and urite the party. The Times has attempted to be of some service<to the democracy in appeasing its quarrels and harmonizing the factions, But as we should have deem- ed it the height of unwisdom to urge the candidacy of an active and conspieuous anti-organization democrat, so with double force it can_be objected that the nomina- tion of Mr. Hill wrecks all plans of party harmony, since he is the leader and creator of the faction that is responsible for -in- harmony. ‘After~ loudly proclaiming that victory -was- hopeless -without- union, Mr. Hi friends have taken a step that makes disunion chronic and puts new life into ex- piring dissent. But> that Is by no Means the most se rious or-the mdst alarming aspect of Mr. Hill's nomi: ion. In the last days of the year 1801 a great” public™ crime” was com- mitted in. this state. “Ain agent in the com- mission of that crime came before the peo- ple at the election held last year, and al- though he~was’a candidate of the more numerous party-he was defeated by an ad- verse majority of more than’ 100,000 votes. But if a’ mere-agent:in the villainy was punished with that severity, how. will the, electors of the state treat ‘the principal at the polls? Mr. Hill was the arch-conspil tor three years and lest year Mr. Lock- wood -. pi |--over---the --convention ~ that nominated the doomed Maynard. Are these nominations an intentional defiance of public virtue? Is it. assumed-that the os ad have forgotten the theft of the Sen- ate? All Hopes of Harmony Are From the New York World (Dem.). The result of the democratic state conven- tion will. create great disappointment, ‘sur- prise.and admiration.. Disappointment -be- cause tl st ordinary common sense in political irs. must perceive the crying necessity for union, harmony, reconciliation and genuine enthusiasm in the’ present critical. campaign... It. was particularly necessary that the moral and the inde- pendent elements in the party be satistied. The machine is always bound to accept the situation. By rejecting the claims of the state democracy and the reform delegation from Kings county and nominating Senator Hill, the brains, the directing hand and the unquestioned master of the machine organization, the old divisions are. intensi- fled—certainly not. healed.» The disaffected democrats will see only the candidate for governor. ‘ = Wil Reckon With Maynard's Master. From the New York Tribune (Rep.). There never was a more stupid mistake in American politics. ‘Thé*peopte ‘of’ this state have not “slept off” last year’s revul- sion of coriscience against the political brigands who despotled them of their liber- tles and then attempted to crown with honor a confessed thief—the tool and crea- ture of Senator Hill. They dealt last year with Maynard. This year they have where.| they want him the man who was behind Maynard; the:man without whom there would have been no theft of the legislature and all the accompanying outrages; the man who ordered Maynard's nomination for the court of appeals as a vindication of crime in violation of morality and conscience. There will be a reckoning with Maynard's master at the polls. They will deal with rim, not as a miracle worker nor as a presidential candidate, but as the last democrat in the state who ought to have been nominated after*Maynard’s rejection. Thinks There Will Be Party Harmony From the New York Herald (Dem.), There is every pfospéect that Senator Hill's nomination will receive the support of all the democrats in the state. Animosi- tes will be buried for the good of the party. There is no doubt that the chief caus’ of the burying of the hatchet was the platform adopted by the convention. It was regarded as an unqualified indorsement of Cleveland janhed. and his administration, and this served to/ reconcile the former anti-snappers to the candidacy of a man they have in the past freely execrated. Approves the Politics of It. From the Philadelphia Press (Rep.). The action of the New York democratic state convention in nominating Senator Hill for governor was probably the wisest course that could have been followed. Mr. Hill will be enthusiastically supported by the machine that he has carefully built up and by the brewers, who have always been his main support, and defeat will not hurt him. He will not have to resign his seat in the Senate, and his term does not expire until March 4, 1897. Hence, whatever the result of the election Hill will remain in office and before the people the leader of his party in New York. A Desperate Game. From the Philadelphia Times (Ind.). For Hill is playing a desperate game, that must either make him or undo him quite. If “he should be elected governor of New York he would be the master of the democratic party and almost of necessity its candidate for President in 1896, If he should be de- feated his power would be broken irretriev- ably. As there are evidently a great many good democrats in New York who would rather lose they governorship this year than help to put Hill in the saddie he would seem to be playing against odds. But Hill ts a man of great resources and indisputable ability and courage, and it will not be safe to count him beaten till the returns are in. Led to the Slaughte: From the Philadelphia Inquirer (Rep.). It is doubtful if a more pathetic scene was ever witnessed in a state convention than the forcible nomination of David B. Hill for governor of New York. It was an exciting scene, of course. Every delegate was for Hill. The enthusiasm was tre- mendcus. His course in antagonizing Cleveland was indorsed. His factional leaa- ership was given the regularity of a unan- imous vote. He was, above all others, the one democrat in New York, and yet it was pathetic. There was the strong man, agitat- ed, pale, with the knowledge that in the very house of his friends he was being led to the slaughter. His protests were un- availing. His declinations feit on deaf ears. He must have realized what was before him. He appealed to his friends to save him, but there was no pity. He was nom- | inated by a convention which had sought to name Gaynor, Whitney and others, all of whom had declined. And so Hill was dragged in and made to stand up to the racket and to hazard his entire political future on the ‘gambler’s turn of a die. It was pitiful. . Strong Rnough. From the Baltimore Sun (Detit.). Both platform and nominations are suf- ficiently strong to give promise of a hot campaign and close vote jn November. Some Improbabilities. From the Baltimore American (tep.). The convention yoked Hill with Dantei Lockwood, “the frier/l and law partner of Cleveland, as a running mate—an incongru- ous pair, which will offér the opportunity to the democratic factions of glutting their revenge to satiety. The snappers can kulfe Lockwood anl the antt-snappecs* Hill. As the Hill men are the more consistent demo- crats, it 1s possible that their leader will fare the worst in a game of this sort. Many improbable things happen in politics, but rarely anything s. mprobable as the sup- port of Hill by the admirers of President Cleveland or the mugwumps. The former have not had time to recover from the white heat of their rage at the humiliation of their idol during the ‘exciting contests over the Horntlower and Peckham appointments, while to the latter Senator Hill is the im- personation of all that is vicious and worthy of condenination in politics. He re- peatedly exhibited his supreme contempt for Cleveland on the floor of the Senate, and he ostenta’ orp, declined the aid of the mug- wumps In hfs last campaign for governor, and was elected without their aid. A Ticket of Forlorn Hope. From the New York Press. It is a ticket of forlorn hope. desperation with the precipice before them and the tidal wave of popular indignation behind them, the democrats have made a rally. They have summoned Driven to of defeat ————S————S$T_= RAPID AND ACCURATE The Recovery of the Money Stolen From the Oawoods. rest Charged With the Theft—They Were Free Spenders. Hezekiah Cawood’s savings, or ai Icast « large portion, which were stolen only a few days ago, have been recovered. To Detective Horne belongs the credit for the accurate and quick work on the case. As a result of his efforts a whole family are behind prison bars. The prisoners are Ida Cross, alias Ada Gray; Bettie Cross, allas Bettie Gray, and Mrs. Rebecca Cross. Monday morning the disappearance of the money was a mystery. Wednesday after- noon $1,065 of the $1,280 stolen was recov- ered and the alleged thieves in ‘custody. Detective Horne was put on the case. A slight investigation--gave to him the evi- dence that Ella Gray, an inhabitant of Bloodfield, had two rings and more’ inoney than properly belonged to her.
