TTHh Ml. Lf-.lt n* Many
Bitter Words Tie Serin. Already
PunUiicd.
(WMblagton loiter la tlie Cleveland Uader.)
There was a wild, angry, excited
look on bis face, the look which re
minded one ofa bunted animal driv
en at bv, and bis words were hot and
bitter. Liar, perjurer, thief, contemp
tible sneak, villian, were epithets
which flowed freely from his
Ups as he referred to those who had
acted against hint In his trial. Only
once did lie laugh or even smile, and
Dial was when some reference was
made to the constant demands upon
him for money by a lot of leeches who
infest the capital and Us courts and
lobbies. Then It was a laugh full of
dhcord and hatred rather than pleae
ure or merriment. His home is a
heautllul one. A flna large house in a
fashionable neighborhood, parlors
richly furnished, costl.vlpaintings up,
on the walls, a beautiful wife of whom
everybody speaks with honor and re
gard, yet that look upon his face and
that eplrit ef hatred for mankind
which breathed forth lu his every
word and movement showed that his
surroundings did not detract from the
painful consciousness that his condi
tion is a critical one and that (lie
band of every man is against him.
His wife is a beautiful woman, un
ornament to society: but, feeling keen
ly the attacks upon her husband, she
seems to have almost entirely with
drawn from social life, if, Indeed, its
doors remain open to her.
A Til IKE'S HONEST WIHE.
Tli Story of Vtnrent, llie Alabama
Trcaauxer*
People yet abound, and we have
tamed with them In the past few hours,
who honestly think that Vincent, the
absconding Treasurer of our sister
Mate, riads every morning early the
Montgomery Advertiser. Others say
that he Is In Canada. But It is very
strange that of all the defaulting pub
lic officers for so large an amount, no
body seems to know Ins location, de
spite the large reward offered for his
arrest. There U a singular circum
stance connected with Vincent’s de
fault never, believe, before pub
lished. The $15,000 In ids personal
posessionatlhetlmeof hie departure
was handed io his wife —evidently, we
suppose, for lieT use. Upon opening
the package she found the first MU to
be one of tho denomination of $5,000.
This led her to conclude that it was
public money, and there must be some
mistake about It, that she had misun
derstood her husband. Hence she
went to the capital and turned It over
to the Mate officials. Vincent was
cool, and had much method In mad
ness. The night ofhls departure was
spent at poker, aud as he rose from the
gambling tnble, wether suc
cessful or not wo are
unlnfermed, he remarked that
lie had eaten nothing *lne breakfast,
and must go ami get something. This
was the last of Vincent known to bis
associates.— Columlnts Time*.

John Hoyle O’Rtllly, editor of the
Boston Pitot, teleKruidled on Monday
to the editor of ti New York erenlng
paper us follows: "I think the coniine
convention of the Land League at
Phlladelnbltt will t>ethe most forcible
expresalon of Irish sentiment ever
had, even In Ireland. The presence
of Puruell npd Ken will raise it Into
a kind of Irish Parliament, and a
Parliament of extraordinary potential-
Hv—there are no serious divisions.
Tills convention, with Parnell pres
ent, will voice the entire Irish rare.
Parnell thus concentrates the moral
power of 30,000,000. It will add vastly
to ills power In England. The great
mass of the Irish will henceforth tnko
part. England’s hruUil policy has
driven the Irish race to desperation.
There will he no stopping now till
Ireland has home rule at last.”

PIANOS & ORGANS
ON TUB ONE FIUCIS SYSTEM.
ONE .UNIFORM PRICE TO ALL AND
THAT THE LOWEST KNOWN.
The usual system of selling Piano* and
Organ* 1* for tho tinnier to charge any price
ho can get for them without any recant to
either a fair profit or the customer's inter
eat. But we are proud to nay that this haa
IHWr.bocn our method of seUing.
For the benefit of purchaser* and to se
them the full value of their money, we
established at the outset of our business,
twelve years since.
The One Price System,
And to this we attribute our immense aud
prosperous trade. Selims on tbi* square
basis, renders it Imperative that the price
bo the very lowest that can be given. We
are pledged to this. Wo always have done
it aud we always will do it. It*a our creed
aud our practice. No other Piano and Or
gan House deal* on this principle.
Our price*, in plain figure*, are placed on
every instrument. A child can buy aa low
u* the sharpest trader. All other Houses
have ’'High price* and give discount*.’’
Tho -One Price” system saves tine In
trading, and i* the only satisfactory way to
buyer aud seller: for, ou the high price
aud discount system, even though the
customer buys, he i* not sure that ne has
bottom price*.
Advice to Piano and Organ Buyers.
Buy quick ? Why? Because an advance in
price is almost certain. Plano* and Organ* are on
a boom. The demand exceed* the supply. All
the factories arc behind orders. Dealer* with cash
in baud cannot get instrument* as fast av wanted.
Price* of material and labor are advancing. Tho
present low prices of PUnos and Organ* cannot
continue, and will not again rule in the neat ten
years. Those, who buy now will save money.
Large contracts Ju*t made with manufacturers
