It “THE PARTY HAD HARD LUCK.” Senator Hil Makes 2 Political Speech at Minneapolis. The reception to Senator David B. Hill by the Hennepin Democratic League at Minne- apolis yestercay was rather a sensational affair. ‘There is but one picture in the rocm, that of President Cleveland. A local attorney, deliberately turned it to the wall, saying it was not right to have Cleveland’s pleture there and not Hill's. A local liquor dealer demanded that the picture be turned back, and insisted on it. Thea J. H. Martin, president of the league, introducing Senator Hill, said he considered him one of the greatest statesmen in. the country, second to no man in the party as regards able and patriotic statesmanship. If there was any exception it was Grover Cleveland. There was a faint applause, but it was immediately followed by groans. “The democratic party has had hard luck recently in the elections,” said Senator Hill. “The party has been beaten nearly every- where. I am not one of those who feel called upon to explain the reason why we went to defeat. “If some say it was the fault of the President we know that the President is not the democratic: party. If some say Con- gress is to blame, we know that is not alto- gether true, because Congress does not make the party. The democratic party consists of the great mass of the common people. No one man; no ten men are the party. “It was a misfortune when we succeeded in securing the control of the government that we had so many states in the demo- cratic column. Congress was overwhelm- ingly democratic, and some of us lost our heads, We tried to do too much. “I tried to keep cool. I saw we were try- ing to do what we were not pledged to do, and I opposed some of the populistic inno- vations. “I am not one of those that cry ‘to the victor belongs the spoils,’ but, on the other hand, I do not believe that the men to be rewarded after a political victory are the dilettante reformers, who never do any- thing to secure party success. I think’ it entirely right that any man who has the ability should aspire to leadership and these men that should be remembered at a time wes ners are honors to bestow. “You know we have not been overburden- ed with the division of the patronage of the government in the state of New York dur- ing the present administration (general ap- plause), but what good is patronage?” —-2ee NO ULTIMATUM RECEIVED. 7 Latest Advices in London Venezuela. The Times publishes the following dis- patch from its correspondent at Caracas, Venezuela, under date of November 21: “It 1s officially stated that the revolu- tionary outbreak is of no importance. No British ultimatum has yet been receiv d, and many of ihe Influential Venezuelans urge an amicable settlement. The govern- ment is afraid that the tendering of an apology would be equivalent to recogniz- ing the right of England to the disputed territory. Otherw it is ready to give sat.sfaction. Ac able party favors a direct settlement of the frontier ques- From tion without reference to the United States.” —~———+e+—______ High Praise for Atlanta. Mayor Strong of New York has just re- turned to that city {rpm Auanta, where he has been attending the expe jon. In an interview he said: “We were all pleased— immensely pleased—with the exposition. 1 think for a town of only’ 100,000 population Atlanta has made and is making a wonder- ful showing. So far as it goes the expo- sition ts fully equal te the Columbian ex- position.

There are many American students at- tending the Ontario Veterinary College at Toronto, Canada, and yesterday they sought to honor Thanksgiving by raising the stars and stripes in one of their lecture rooms. To this, however, the Canadian students objected and rudely hauled down the flag, though they met with a vigorous resistance. Then ensued a free tight, sev- eral on both sides being slightly injured, though none ser-‘ously. 0+ Convicted of Train Wrecking. The jury in the George Washington Davis murder case at Lincoln, Neb., has returned a verdict of guilty of murder in the second degree.

NARROW MARGIN OF: THE COLUMBIAS ———— inaugurating, Winter Racing on the Pacitic Coast. ag TRYING TQ ,MATCH MAHER Although the Columbia Athletic Club came out victorious in the foot ball game with Columbian University yesterday after- ncon, it was by ‘the narrow margin of two Points, and at one time it looked as if the score would be: entirely -in favor ofthe wearers of the: blue and yellow. After Clark had: made ‘his first touchdown; ias -an- nounced -in. yesterday's Star, Mills and Cockrell both made spiendid runs and scored touchdowns from whicho Shuster kicked the goak.« ~ melee 20 ‘This made the scere 12 to 44n Columbian’s favor, and. the rooters of the "varsity man- aged to make people Know Who they were for some little tfine. > After this the C.

They steadily -eyshed the ‘varsity pack until within. few yards of ‘their goal Ine, and Maupin was pushetf over fot’ a tduchdown. Clark again failed to Kféke‘goal.. Thif made the score 12 to 8, but a-few'minutes later Hooxer was pushed over for another touchdown, and this time Clark used his good eye and Kicked the goal. Score, 14 to 12. The outcome of the game was a surprise to nearly every one of the spectators, who had -expected to see Columbia come out ahead by a large score. The ’varsity pulled together wonderfully well, and their super- icr weight gave them considerable advan- tage. Cockrell played a good game, and to his efforts more’than any one else may be attributed the fine showing of the ‘varsity |. team. Columbia was unable to take advantage of what misplays the ‘varsity did make on account of her lack of practice, while with- out Gockrelt on the field Columbian would have been a mass of players, each one striving to do what he thought was best. Clark played a good game, as he always does, with the exception of his failure to locate the goal posts. Mills’ run was a piece of luck that has never been equaled in this vicinity, but It counted just the same, and that was what was wanted. It was estimated that nearly three thous- and persons saw the game, and the bank- ing of the colors on the sides of the grid- iron made a very pretty sight. Tally-ho parties were numerous, while carriages and light traps were innumerable. Yesterday’s Foot Ball Games Else- pe where. At Philadelphia—Pennsylvania, - 46; Cor- nell, 2.

There was much slugging. For this Moritt, Jackson and Collier were put out of the game, but the. last-named was per- mitted to return. Police regulations were poor, and the crowd swarmed into the field, causing half an hour's delay. Competent critics generally agrec that the game, un- der ordinary circurastances, would have been won by the Carolinians. The Tar Heels complain of the decisions. They, more than likely, would have scored in the last half but for the conduct of the spectaiors, who, crowding upon the Held after the Vir- ginia touchdown was inade, interfered with their work.

The annual Thanksgiving hunt of the Chevy Chase Club which took place yes- terday was the most successful event of its kind ever held under the auspices of that popular organization. There were five riders in at the death, Sydney Halloway getting the brush. The others who were fortunate enough to be counted in were ‘larence Moore, who will have the mask for hts property; W. E. Earle, Mr. Marrow and Signor Padilla. Miss Halloway, who was the only lady to follow the hounds, was forced to return to the club just before the end of the: ehése, as ‘her “horse gave out, being unable to stand the severe strain put upon it by the difficulties to be surmounte. The hunt started at 10 o'clock with Jos. Halloway as hufitsman. §, S. Howland, the master of thé hotinds: M Harry M. Earle, Charles!

He made the distance in twelve minutes and one- fifth of a second. Johnson also beat Bar- nett’s time for one-fifth of a mile. Winter Racing at ‘Frisco. The Pacific Coast Jockey Club iniug- urated its winter meeting at the new Ingle- side track yesterday in the presence of fully 15,000 people, notwithstanding the heavy rain which had fallen all day, mak- ing the track very heavy. The Palace Ho- tel stakes ‘for three-year-olds, valued at 2,000, was the chief attraction, Bright Phoebus, the winner of this year’s Teallga- tion stakes, being looked upon as a sure winner. He was heavily backed at even money, but 125 pounds weight told on him, and he finished a bad fourth, the winner turning up in Ed. Corrigan’s Junius, who was as good as 30 to 1 in the betting. He Was well played by his owner. Semper Lex, the eastern horse, galloped away from a field of stake horses in the opening event, although a poor start practically killed the chances of nalf a dozen horses. J. O. C. and Col. Wightman ran a dead heat in the hurdle race and the purse was divided. ‘ Wants to Match Maher. DETROIT, Mich., November 29.—John J. Quinn, Peter Maher’s manager, says he 1s ready and anxious to contest Fitzsimmons’ claims to the middle weight and heavy weight championships. Replying to Man- ager Julian’s statement that Fitzsimmons stands ready to defend both titles against all comers, as stated in an Associated Press dispatch, Quinn said: “I will match Maher against Fitzsimmons at any place named next week, for any amount, from 35,0) up- ward, and will arrange that Maher fight Fitzsimmons at any time or place which Julian may set, either In private or public.” Schade’s Good Work. The cycle races of the Portsmouth, Va., Cycle Club were held yesterday. Great in- terest was manifested in the race for the Virginia championship and the one-mile handicap. Schade of this city won the former easily, riding the last quarter in twenty-nine seconds flat. The latter he also captured from scratch, after a game and determined effgst, in passing the 180- yard men in the tat few jumps. Schade won als» one-mile open, one-half-mile open, two-mile lap race, and then lowered the track record, with poor single pace, reduc- ing it from 2.26 to 2.19. Knockouts at Baltimore. There were two knockouts at the Eureka Atkletic Club of Baltimore last night, Joe Gans, the colored lightweight of Baltimore, finishing George Siddons of New Orleans in the sixth round, and Jack Ward of Balti- more put “Tug” Sayers of Boston to sleep In the seventh round. Gans and Siddons weighed in at 125 pounds. Gans did all the leading and closed the left eye of the white hoy in the second round. Siddons landed only three hard blows during the contest. Sayers was no match for Ward in the preliminary bout, and was repeatedly knocked off his feet. In the third round Ward landed right and left, and put his man to sleep by a right-hand blow in the face. —— THE COUNTRY AND THE CAPITAL. Two Themes Over Which Rabbi Stern Grew Eloquent. At the temple of the Washington Hebrew congregation, on 8th street, yesterday after- noon, many of the Jewish citizens of Wash- ington essembled and joined in Thanksgiv- ing day services. Rev. L. Stern delivered an interesting address on the theme “Think and Thank.” In the course of his remarks he said: But it is especially as a nation that on this day above all others we should become con- scious of our debt of gratitude to a benign and watchful Providence. No rationally thinking, fair-minded citizen of these United States can, as such, be a thankless ingrate. There is no other coun- try on the face of the globe in which the biblical benediction is as gloriously fulfilled as in our own: “Blessed art thou in the city, and blessed art thou in the country.” Marvelous, unparalleled in the history of the world has been the progress and growth of this country under the magic touch of clvili- zation. By far the greater portion of the vast area extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the extreme north to the dis- tant south--but a hundred years ago a har- ren, inhospitable wilderness—has een trans- formed into fertile soil, a veritable “garden of God,” yielding produce not inerely svffi- cient to plentifully feed 70,000,000 of inhabi- tants, but to supply with an enormous sur- plus the markets of the world. The conjur- ing up, day after day, of untold treasures concealed within the bowels of the earth, and other industries of the most varied bature, constantly add to the immense wealth of a country of truly inexhaustible resources. We may, in justifiable pride, turn to our own blessed city, the chief city of our nation, the fairest in all the land, and, thinking of her'as her favored citizens, feel truly thank- ful. Her very name is suggestive of all that constitutes noble manhood, purest patriot- ism and good citizenship. Typical of America. Walking along her beautiful, broad streets and wide avenues frequently, intercepted by well-kept shady parks, and comparing them with the narrow thoroughfares of most European cities, a picture is conveyed to us of the broad cosmopolitan principles upon which American government is founded and by which American life and thought, gener- ally, are characterized—strongly contrasting with the narrowness often prevailing abroad. Every year adds to the renown of our city as ore of surpassing beauty and loveliness. What is unsightly and offensive to retined tastes is rapidly disappearing, and the result is a picture of rare architectural beauty and symmetry, pleasing to the senses and elevating and ennobling, mentally and morally. Our matchless public institutions, devoted to the promotion of science in every sphere, indicate the already prominent position to which youthful America has advanced among the nations of the world. Our great universities offer the advantages of a higher classical education of which the American youth is eager to avail himself. But the strength of our nation consists not so much in the higher education of the few as in the common education of the many. What commanding structures are those, flying the stars and stripes and adorning every section of the city, to which, day after day, thous- ands of boys and girls eagerly wend their way? They are the pride of our city, the bulwark of our nation, tor the public schoci hes become .an_ established institution throughout the length and breadth of the land. A peopie that is to exercise universal franchise must have universal education. Education is our cheapest aetense, a better safeguard of liberty than standing armies. Educate the masses, mentally and morally, and penitentivries and work houses will be- come depopulated, and the country will rot be shocked so frequently by the perpetration of dastardly crimes and the fiendish meth- ods of bloodthirsty mobs avenging them. Let our people guard zealously this safe- guard of our republic against any encroach- ments that would jeopardize the lofty object in view—the education of mind and heart of the future citizen, unbiased and untram- meled by sectional or sectarian influences. Religious Sentiment. The strength of the religious sentiment prevailing in our midst is attested by the large number of churches that by their stately architecture contribute materiatly to the attractiveness of our capital. Side by side the varicus derominations worship, each in its own fashion, and according to dictates of conscience, but united in the love of the Father of all, ia promoting what is good and noble, and combating vice and corruption. And towering high in colossal dimensions, crowned with the statue of liberty, the prcud Capitol looks down upon the scenes of beauty below. For a hundred years that gigantic sentinel of American freedom has kept faithful vigil. Growing gradually to its present stupendous proportions, it illus- trates the gradual growth and development of the country, whose laws are ‘ramed with- in its spacious halls by a free and sovereign nation’s chosen representatives. Since the laying of its corner stone in ‘793, hy George Washington, the storms of a century have passed over it without impairing its solidity and strength. Even so, the changeful events of history, the political and social upheavals within our midst could not destroy the grand national structure of independence and lib- erty, reared by the same illustrious patriot and his associates, the framers of the Con- stitution and the heroes of the ‘var of inde- pendence. With the help of God and the wisdom, moderation and patriotism of the people and their chosen leaders, it will stand forever! Whatever be our complaints or grievances, here, within both halls of legislature, hallowed by memorable inci- dents in our nation’s history, redress may be found and matters successfully adjusted by wise legislation and true statesmanship, but never by acts of violence and defiance of the law. On these lines, and these alone, can the true standard of citizenship be de- fined and determined—not by creed or pro- fession or the color of skin. ee Heinous Offense. From the Indianapolis Journal.
