The council realized that with proper legal proceedings the brewing company could recover damages. Action was de ferred till last night, when it went through with a vote of three majority.

Most anybody can perform the routine duties ot the presi dency and consequently it is not very im portant who that man is or is going to be. Cleveland gets along as well as any of them, lie lias done several excellent. offices. There is to be a general revolution in salaries. Chairman Angier said yester day: “I am heartily in sympathy with a change. In the tirst place, 1 intend trying to abolish the odious fee perquisite system in toto, and substituting iu lieutiereof reasonable salaries. For many years the city clerk and marshal have received costs, fees and perquisites. Every clerk who has held the office since the war has left the Will the democratic party nominate Mr. Cleveland for re-election in 1888?” “President Cleveland is a civil service re former, and will probably for the sake of civil service use all his official influence to nominate himself. It looks now as though he would succeed.” “How does the strength of the mug wumps, or independents, compare with that of two years ago ?” A mugwump is a kind of grub in a office very rich. I have no precise figures, | transition state.* He bears the same rela- but it is popularly believed the city clerk’s ! tion to a democrat that a certain worm office is worth $10,000 a year or more, and that the marshal’s office is worth in fees, costs, perquisites and commissions about $8000 per annum. I think the marshal and city ' cleric should be put on fair, reasonable salaries—say $1500 each a year, with two assistants at say $65 per month,require these officers to keep proper cash books and render item ized statements, and also require these of ficers to pay the fees and perquisites into the city treasury, so the people will get the benefit of them. Then the recorder gets $1700 a year. I think that is too much. Pendleton, Milledge and Glenn served the city well as recorder at much less, and I think the recorder’s salary ought to be cut. Then the city engineer gets $1800 a year. “The city has not done very much per manent work for two years, and some years ago Captain Clayton acted as city engineer at $1200 per annum. The city tax receiver and collector gets $1600 a year. Some few years ago he got only $1200 a year. The city treasurer (who is always the cashier of a bank) is now paid $1200 a year, and the bank he is connected with has the does to a butterfly. Most of these grubs have changed, so that there are now Icsh mugwumps, but more democrats.” ROUGH ON PROHIBITION. “What do you think of prohibition as a third party movement and of its future in fluence on national polities ?” “I am not a prohibitionist; I do not be lieve in that kind of legislation. It has never done good. You cannot make great men and women by keeping them away from temptation. People grow strong by resisting temptation. Prohibition makes a busy-body community full of spies, in formers, breath smellers and tattlers.” “Do you believe that Mr. Cleveland is as strong with his party as he war. two years ago, and, if not, in what respects is he weaker ?” “Mr. Cleveland is in a difficult position. He is compelled to be some democrat, just enough not to lose his party, but not enough to lose the mugwumps, and he has to be just enough mugwump to save that wing, but not too much—just enough. When he wants to put a new man in and an old one out he is a democrat. When he wants to keep a friend in, then he is a bands.

The discussion of it before the recent of the committee on relief: “It has been, and is now, a difficult t-isk to measure the loss by the earthquake j calamity, as it was wholly in w in the de- I struotion it wrought. This difficulty was j specially felt by this committee, who were named to receive and distribute aid to the ! needy sufferers of this disaster, needing ! shelter, food and immediate pecuniary aid. ; This committee have afforded relief,and in , their judgment there lias been such a resumption of tho normal life : of tliis place as to justify a discontinuance ' of this system of assistance at an early day. : The most difficult and gravest problem has been to fix correctly the number of victims, whose loss is their shattered houses anu who are actually unable to repair or re build, and to estimate rightly the total amount of this loss in money so that the good givers of this universal charity might know the limit of our actual want in this our dist ress. The committee have after most careful examination of the eases as far as received arrived at the con clusion that tlie sum of money already re ceived by this committee, together witli the estimate amount of collections now made and in progress of being made in the territory east of the Alleghanies, together with the estimated amount now in process of collection in Chicago and other points west of the Alleghanies, of which they have been advised, will, when received, place the committee in a position to sub stantially help the needy sufferers for whose relief this committee wus formed. The larger and vaster loss falling upon the federal government, state, county and city in the damage to public buildings, the great loss to churches, associations and i corporations, and the widespread damage ! done to the residences, stores, warehouses and other property of private persons who | are able out of their private means to re place and repair the losses, great and distressing as the aggregate, the loss is to the public and individuals. It has not been within the scope of this committee’s efforts, simply because it was not a cause of charity to the needy earth quake sufferers. As grateful recipients of the generosity and sympathy of those who have stretched out their helping hand to us, this committee have felt that they should be guided by faith and the esti mates of the actual loss of needy sufferers, and if on an untrodden path they might err, they prefer to err limiting the esti- . mate rather than placing it too high.” VIIIiiih'n llcvt rcivcil.

After the game was finished, the president unfolded carefully a piece of brown paper, wrapped up the cards and returned them to ins pocket. “A person of so economical a turn of mind must manage his railroad sagaciously, thought the capitalist, and the same day he bought a thousand shares of the rail road’s stock.

Ex-Senator Bruce (colored) has told the secret of his admiration for Senator Conkling as follows: “When I came up to the senate I knew no one except Senator Alcorn, who was my colleague. When the names of the new senators were called out for them to go up and take the oath, all ihe others except myself were escorted by specimens of fruit and the bodies of animal.- placed there in 1874. They were . changed into a substance closely resem bling stone, and the original colors were preserved to a remarkable degree.

The gases escape through the cement very slowly, and a perfect copy oftlie body is left. “If,” said the ce- mentatiouist, “we had the body of Moses in sueli a process, we could now give every college in the world a perfect model of God’s chosen loader.” He says he has no scheme to work, and only wants to give the world the benefit of his experiments.

Large Dealing* and Heavy FJurination* in Friar* New York, October 5.—The dealings of stocks to-day have been the largest tor a long time and trading for the first hour has seldom, if ever, been exceeded, it was over one third or the day s business. The feeling was more bn 1 !!..a this morning and London became a ' avy purchaser of all specialties. Ad- .ices were made all over the list, thou 0 a subject to several set backs. Heavy realizing in North eastern and Western Union was the features of the morning trading, the former dropping 4 in a very short time and in the afternoon it dropped further, which was recovered at the close. The realization brought out a great deal of stock and those who were still long came to the rescue in the afternoon and rallied the stocks. The decline in Western Union seems to be a natural reaction from the sharp advance of the last few days. Louisville and Nashville and Missouri Pacific became leaders in the afternoon and the so-called Gould proper ties were especially strong, and in ease of the Missouri Pacific there was a rumor of valuable rights to he given to the stock holders in a short time and some talk of stock dividends. The opening was very strong, the first prices showing advances of 4 to i}—the lat ter Union Pacific and Delaware and Hud son. There was much irregularity in the first hour, but the general market, was strong, and New England and Western Union weak. Canada B nithorn and Union Pacific then became prominent for strength and activity, and from the first thirty minutes the course of prices in the general list was up, though subject to frequent reaction. Extraordinary activity continued until the close, although the last hour was less excited and feverish than any previous time of the day.

I ii (I n in in ii (or jr H li cii hi u( Ism. For over two years I suffered intensely with muscular rheumatism. I became almost helpless, and had to be helped out of bed. At times I was unable to turn my self in bed, and had to bo handled as ten derly as an infant. My chest was involved, and the pain was intolerable at times. All the old and well known remedies were exhausted, but no permanent relief was obtained. About a year ago I was induced by a friend to try Swift’s Specific. The effect lias been magical. My friends scarcely recognize me. My rheumatism is entirely gone, my general health is superb, and I am weighing thirty pounds more than w hen I commenced taking B. B. S.

Several Columbus gentlemen are at the head of the enterprise, and they believe that such works will pay in Grifiln. Mr. Jenkins says the people of that place received him kindly, and he will go there again in about two weeks to further investigate the situation. The Grifiln Sun in speaking of the matter says: “We hove taken occasion to ask the opinion of a number of ourcitizehs on tho above subject and they arc all unanimous in saying “we arc in favor of it.” It will only increase the taxation to what we paid last year and surely we can afford to put the tax the same ugain, on condition that our city is lighted and protected fr mi fire. The company who proposes to build this plant do notask anything unreasonable, and we hope to soon be able to chronicle the fact that the trade lias been made. The committee appointed from the council to confer with Mr. .Jenkins met him yesterday morning and talked the matter over. It was agreed that he was to go back to Co lumbus and make up tho very lowest estimate on the work to be done and submit it to the council. In the meant.me the committee would canvass the town in the interest oftlie new enterprise. We hope our citizens will give the committee their support, and help them to inaugurate this great benefit to our town.” (■oshIp About Hull Players.
