Washington, June 18.—Senator Kenna,
,f West Virginia, chairman of the demo-
congressional committee, is quoted
jJ saving: “If Cleveland should be the
..iiiidldate again in 1888 he will be much
stronger than he wns in 1884. He is strong-
,. no w with both politicians and people
.(nut he was then, and he is growing
stronger every day. The people had to
J.jl-e him on trust in 18S4, but before his
present terra will have expired have
L will have made a record that
„ill leave nothing to doubt. Before
that time comes those who
have been inclined to grum-
liie about the slowness of the procession
Vi :|| better understand the difficulties
which liave beset the president’s path
md the wisdom of his course. If I had
Into president in his place, 1 dare say 1
world have out on more speed, but proba
bly I he only practical result of that would
h iv,. been that I would have created more
racket. Cleveland is bound not only to
make the government democratic, but
„l s „ to improve it; and, mind you, it
would be by no means impossible to turn
mil a republican and replace him by a
democrat who would be even worse than
himself. I say that with all the emphasis
of one who thinks he knows. But in
, Vl . r y case what Cleveland has aimed at,
nml what he has accomplished, is not only
to put democrats in the place of republi
cans, but to improve the service with every
change. He has appointed good party
im .n, hut his appointees, while being good
party men, are men who hold the country
dearer than party. So farasthe personnel
oi' the government is concerned, before
the last year of his presidential term is
reached it is probable that there will be
little left for the most unredeemed spoils
man to covet. When considering the un
exceptional character of all the appoint
ments made, the number of them is
quite respectable if not astonishing. A
hostile senate, which set out, as every one
knows, to place as many obstacles as possi
ble in the way of the president, has failed
to find any reasonable excuse for rejecting
more than 1 per cent, of all the nomina
tions made. That fact, in itself, is not a
bad tribute to the quality of the appoint
ments. It is impossible to suy whether
Mr. Cleveland intends to be a candidate
again. It is natural for a man to look fora
second term, but not a single act of his
seems to be done with any regard for the
future. None of Mr. Cleveland’s move
ments seems to be the outcome of any cal
culation to its possible bearing on a future
election or upon anything but what he
himself believes to be the best interests of
the country.”

Phila telphia Times.
The nuptial ceremony in the white house
among other happy results has set at rest
that abstruse problem in the social econo
my of the executive household which has
been agitating Washington since the in
stallation of the widower President Arthur
in the place of the murdered Garfield.
There had been widowed presidents be
fore. The wife of Jefferson had died nearly
twenty years before her husband became
president. Their highly cultivated and
beautiful daughters, Mrs. Randolph and
Mrs. Epps, divided the honors of
the social regime, relieved, when
absent, by Dolly Payne Madison, the
buxom, bustling, somewhat rollicking
Quaker wife of his secretary of state. Mrs.
Jackson, a delicate, sensitive woman, was
overwhelmed into eternal sleep just before
her husband’s inauguration by the foul
slanders bom of partisan malice and
heaped uponjthe idol of her heart,the brave
old hero of Pensacola and New Orleons.
Her two nieces, Mrs. Andrew Donelson
and Mrs. Andrew Jackson, jr., did the hon
ors of the white house during those stormy
times of political antagonisms and social
and domestic scandals. Angelica Single
ton Van Buren, a dark-eyed beauty of
South Carolina, the wife of the son
of Martin Van Buren, was advanced
to the place of presiding lady, the
rightful occupant of that place having
been dead fully twenty years when that
scion of Knickerbocker blood entered upon
tlie duties of chief magistrate. The death
of the first Mrs. Tyler in the white house
caused the social duties of the early part of
tlie administration to devolve upon the
wife of the president’s son. That high
functionary later conferred that honor
upon Julia Gardner, of New York, by i
making that queenly lady his wife. That |
superb daughter of Pennsylvania, Harriet \
bane, a niece, adorned the social environ
ments of James Buchanan, in his high j
oltiee of president.
In those days of elegant manners and
regard for social conventionalities and
proprieties among the high-born and cui- I
lured ladies north and south, who were |
tin- leaders of society at the capital, this i
question of the first lady of the land, the j
president not having a wife, was never |
mooted. No one doubted tlie right of the '
president to invest some lady member of!
the family—a daughter, a sister or a niece I
—with the domestic and social preroga- j
lift s of his high station. It was during the I
captivating social reign of Mary Arthur
McElroy, the petite and pretty sister of;
President Arthur, that Blue Grass states
men and dames undertook to force this
heretical doctrine into the social forms of
official life. The wife of the speaker was
exalted as the first lady of the land and ,
held a rump court at one of tlie hotels. i
The inauguration of Grover Cleveland
revived this vigorous controversy in a more
formidable shape. In the administration
of President Arthur there was simply a j
president pro tern, of the senate, then in
the line of succession to the executive 1
oltiee, but whose wife was an invalid, and
upon which frail assumption the wife of
tlie speaker aspired to the honors of reign- !
'ng queen. The election of Thomas A. i
Hendricks a* vice-president placed the 1
wife of that officer next in line in the van
of the aspiring fashion of the feminine 1
world of the seat of government. Mrs.
Headricks had made the appointment of
fussed “Joe" McDonald a political iinpos- i
ability, and when Miss Rose Cleveland
took her place as the presiding lady of the
white house notice was served against her j
assuming social precedence as first lady of
the land.
President Cleveland, with an exhibition
“I sagacity in tine points of etiquette sur- I
passed only by the delicate sensibilities dis- j
played in his love, courtship and marriage,
' .upped the wings of this threatened rebel- I
non in the social world by giving to the j
■ate Mias Katharine Bayard, the daughter j
ol his secretary of state, the place of pre-I
"••deuce next to Miss Cleveland at the
■"dial levee held under tlie auspices of his
administration. The wife oftiie vice-presi- i
n> nt was ignored as a claimant not only to !
Ha- post oi first lady, but even of the j
"d’ors of the first social entertainment.
1 lie act of January 1W, 1886, the first act
0,1 the American statute books to laydown
? distinct order of official precedence,
designating the secretary of state and after
"■m, in. specific order, the other members
ot the cabinet as the respective successors i
I 'he presidential office, in event of the I
demise of the president and vice*president,
disposes of all pretensions of the wife of
: ' u speaker to the social honor of being 1
1 he first lady in the land. The marriage of
,, i P res 'dent has settled the new social
problem as to whether the rule of prece-
*dce applicable to the cabinet successors
o tn e political prerogatives ot the presi-
ential office, in event of a vacancy, would
o* extend to the ladies of their families.

of state being a widower, Mrs. Man-

Washington Post.
W. E. S. Wnller and his sister, Miss Jane !
Waller, have lived for many years in a
stately old mansion on a farm situated |
about twenty-five miles from Fredericks- !
burg, Va., near the little village of Now |
Market, managing their farm, and depend
ing solely for assistance about the house (
on Mary and Jennie Green, two mulatto ,
girls, the elder of whom is 18 years of age,
while the younger is but 14. As servants, j
these girls were trusted implicitly, and in
every instance they seemed to be worthy
of the confidence reposed in them. Be- I
sides, they had been reared by the Waller !
, family, a matter which In the eyes of Mr. \
Waller was sufficient to guarantee their
honesty.
! Last Friday Mr. Waller received quite a j
sum of money, which lie kept in Ills room, I
and the girls were aware of this fact.
About 11 o’clock that night, when feeling ,
sure that Mr. and Miss Waller were asleep. !
they quietly armed themselves with stout i
i clubs and proceeded to the old gentleman’s I
apartment. As they entered the room j
Mr. Waller|awoke. and seeing who it was I
demanded angrrily what they wnnted. I
j Without waiting to reply the girls rushed i
ut him. Though aged, Mr. Waller was ,
' still an active man, and springing from his
! bed he seized tlie elder and would have 1
disarmed her had not the other hit him i
over the head with the club and knocked !
him senseless to the floor. They belabored :
; his senseless form with blows until, be- ]
I lieving that life was extinct, they left him |
I to search for Miss Waller. Rushing into |
1 the old lady’s room, they dragged her
j sci earning from her bed, and with one 1
' savage blow from a club laid her senseless.
1 Then they beat her about the head until
I the blood gushed fourth in streams, and
, until all vestige of her features were liter-
: ally beaten out of recognition.
, Satisfied that both their victims wero
! dead, the girls secured about $350 in money
i and fled. Several hours later a colored
boy, one of the tenants on the farm, whilo
passing the mansion observed that the door
was open and stopped to Investigate. On
entering the house, he discovered the sense
less and bleeding formB of Mr. and Miss
Waller on the floor, and immediately
rushed to give the alarm. By 5 o’clock in
the morning the whole neighborhood was
aroused ana hundreds of people flocked to
the house.
Mr. Waller was restored to conscious
ness, and, though in a very precarious con
dition, was able to describe briefly the oc
currences of the night. Parties were in
stantly organized, and the search for the
two girls was undertaken with ardor. The
sherif!"immediately notified the authorities
of the adjoining towns,* well as the police
of Richmond and Washington, so that
there is little probability that the girls can
escape. As yet, however, the search has
been unsuccessful, and so far as can be as
certained the culprits have not been seen
since the night preceding the robbery.
A Theory of Meteors.
Iron is the chief element of the meteors
that fall upon the earth. An explanation
of this is suggested by Signor Bombioci.
The earth is a big magnet, as shown by the
proceedings of a bar of steel freely sus
pended and accurately balanced in the
centre. Bombicci’s idea is that this big
terrestrial magnet when rushing through
space, containing meteoric particles, ex
erts a selective attraction for those which
are ferruginous. The fact that so many
masses of meteoric iron have been found
in the Arctic regions, so far as it goes, sup
ports this theory.
Lord ChnrrbUl fanned the Itlotft.
No one is more directly responsible for
the riots which have disgraced Belfast than
Lord Randolph Churchill. It is all very
well to say that the riots have been inves
tigated and participated in by the lowest
social elements in that city, but this is the
very class that was likely to take advan
tage of his incendiary threats and utter
ances, and there is no saying how far and
how rapidly the spirit of sedition and of
hate which has now been aroused may
spreud.—Philadelphia Record.

NOT SEARED,
BUT THE HEART THROBS OF
TRUE MANHOOD.
Sparta, Ga m Sept. 22, 1885.- To the Constitu
tion, Atlanta—Were I to practice deception in a
case like this, I would think that my heart had
becomee seared beyond recognition.
To be guilty of bearing fetae testimony, thereby
imperiling the lives of my fellow-men, would
place me beneath the dignity of a gentleman.
The theta which T disclose are endorsed and
vouched for by the community in which I live,
and T trust they may exert the influence in
tended.
For twenty long years i have suffered untold
tortures from a terrible pain and weakness in the
small of my back, which resisted all modes and
manner of treatment.
For u long time the horrifying pongs of an eat
ing cancer of my lower lip has added to my mis
ery and suffering. This encroaching, burning
and painful sore on my lip was pronounced Epi
thelial Cancer by the prominent physicians in
his lection, which stubbornly resisted the best
medical talent. About eighteen months ago n
cutting, pie-cing pain located in my breast, which
could not be allayed by the ordinary modes of
treatment.
These sufferings of misery ami prostration be
came so great that, on the 18th of last July, a
leading physician said that 1 could not live long
er than four days, and 1 had about given up in
despair. The burning and excruciating ravages
of the cancer, the painful condition of my back
and breast, and the rapid prostration of my
whole system combined to make me a mere
wreck of former manhood
While thus seemingly suspended on n thread
between life and death. I commenced the use of
B. B. B., the grandest blood medicine, to me and
my household, ever used.
The effect was wonderful—it was magical. The
excruciating pains which had tormented me by
day and by night for twenty years were soon
held in abeyance, and peace and comfort were
restored to a suffering man, the cancer com
menced healing, strength was imparted to my
feeble frame, and when eight bottles bad been
used I was one of the happiest of men, and felt
about as well as I ever did.
All pain had vanished, tlie cancer on my lip
healed, and I was pronounced cured. To those
who are afflicted, and need a blood remedy, I
urge the use of B. B. B. as a wonderfully effective,
speedy and cheap blood purifier.
Allen Grant.
.Sparta, Ga., September 22, 1885.—I saw Mr.
Allen Grant, when he was suffering with epithe

now almost if not perfectly cured.
