THE SCAHUAt ISSUE.
The New York Herald say*:
Another republican attempt to raise
SC andal issue to the prejudice of
Governor Cleveland has been made
in Buffalo, and is exposed in an ar-
ticle ptintcd in the Herald to-day.
Some person in . Buffalo is, it ap
pears. res >o tsible for the board of
a child *'in orphan asylum in that
citv. -1 - child’s first name is
Clevelan , and a b : U made out to
the fathei referred to the child by
j,is first nai ic. But the ingenious
republicans cut off" the head of tl ,
l.ill upon which the father's name
appeared, and thus had an orphan
a,vhim account with the name of
C'-veland upon it, and no other.
Can anything be clearer than that
this was a first-class scandal? How
easy for the republican editor, by
simple innuendo or downright ly
ing, to inform his readers that this
Cleveland was evidently the boy’s
last name, and that therefore he
must be the son of Governor Cleve
land, and thnt this was one more
evidence of the Governor's miscon
duct and immorality! It is a pretty
small basis for a great scandal, to be
sure: but. then, not much basis of
fact is needed where there is plen-
tv of imagination and a totally un
scrupulous readiness to supply de-

An important feature in this story
is the indicaiion that Blaine was
ready to take hand in this vile en
deavor to besmirch his opponent.
It implies that no proceeding
against an adversary can be so base
that he would not be glad to derive
advantage fiom it. Nothing can be
low enough to be beneath him. He
i- presented an opportunity to pur
chase the pretended record of a
political piece of calumny that even
a .million should scorn, and what is
his response? Does he treat it with
contempt, or with the tone of a
man who wishes it to be under
stood that such a communication is
ar. in-idt? Not at all. He keeps
the subject under consideration lor
mini days and then informs his
correspondent that he has confiden
tially referred it to the republican
national committee. Can it be that
all fair spirit ol manly opposition
has gone uui of the republican
parti ? Is there no act to which it
holds iise.f superior? Is Blaine,
with bis mercenary readiness to
make merchandise of any authority
he holds, and his willingness to
dabble in infamous reports, a fair
type of the manhood that prevails
in the parly that has ruled the
country tor twenty-lour years?
lint what a tiibu'e to Governor
Cleveland is this persistent attempt
to make capital against him by rite
reprodir'-'hin of stories raked from
the rubbish heaps of the scandal
mongers Governor Cleveland is
now torn-seven years old, and was
tir-t know in public life fourteen
tears ago. lie was sheriff of his
county, mayor ot bis city and is
governor of this great state—exec-
u'nc bead of a commonwealth
greater than some of the famous
monarchies of the Old World. Had
1! one held these offices his admin
istrative history would have been
simply a picturesque array of ser
vices done to great corporations
and rewards received for these
services. One term in Albany
would have steeped him to the
n e lids in official corruption. But
•gainst Cleveland republican oppo
nents cannot make out the history
of one crooked dollar. They can
not even hint at bribery against
liint; and while they gloat over
what they call a democratic divis
ion. titev go delicately about it, be-
cm-e they know that his “demo
cratic" opponents are against him
only because of his downright
honesty in office. In short, the
scandal tactics are a glaring admis
sion that Cleveland's official record
i» unassailable.

Washington,- Sept 30.—There
may be a belief that the public ser
vice at Washington is being carried
on with some degree of faithfulness.
The officials in control of the va
rious departmedts are assumed, by
the public, to be at their posts, dis-
charging the obligations which rest
upon them, and for which they are
well paid. But the delinquency
which really exists in this respect is
something unparalleled in the his
tory of the civil service of the coun
try. In the first place, the Presi
dent is absent, and has been for
weeks. Finding himself left out in
the cold, he throws aside all sense
of responsibility and practically
abandons the administration of af
fairs. His cabinet also seem to be
struck with the idea that “this is the
time for disappearing.” The wily
Chandler, the crafty Frelinghuysen,
the gorgeous Brewster, and the si
lent, because he don’t know what
to say, Lincoln, have been gone so
long that they are almost forgotten.
To name the absentees of lesser
rank would be a heavy drain on the
official blue book. Those who are
here, arc the exception; those ab
sent, the rule. Most of them are in
tile field electioneering for the
Knight of the White Feather, and
not a few are drawing pay from the
government and at the same time
tre being paid for their speeches,
by the republican campaign club.
Notably is this the case with Gen
eral Dudley, Commissioner of Pcn-
lons, whose resignation does not
..ike effect for a month, and who is
drawing a salary of $5,000 per an
num, and making speeches at .$50 *
day. This, for the gentleman who
poses as the great friend of the sol
dier, is a glaring example of official
.delinquency. Not so fortunate is
Mr. French, the First Assistant Sec
retary of the Treasury. He “disap
peared’’ in April, and passed the
ilium months traveling in Europe,
paying his expenses, it is needless
to >ay, out of an unearned -salary.
But while he was gone he was for
gotten, and when he returned to
lind Secretary Kolger lying dead,he
also found that he had hcen sup
planted in official favor by others,
and though immediately in the line
of promotion himself, his name was
not even mentioned for the Secre
taryship. Not to grow wearisome
on the subject of the unblushing de
linquencies of the officials in the
departments, I challenge compari
son with any other period, tor the
utter disregard of honesty, decency,
and responsibility which now pre
vails in Washington. The bank
president and cashier delinquencies
of the time are only more noticeable,
because affecting private interests,
but as far as ciiminality is concern
ed are no grosser.
The republicans have about aban
doned all hope of doing anything in
the south. They did intend to
make an effort to capture North
Caiolinaaud Florida, but the reports
from those states gave them no en
couragement. It is now clear that
they must carry New York state to
he victorious. To do this they must
overcome a united democratic par-
tv with an alliance ol liberals; a
combination which elected Grover
Cleveland Governor, by over 100,-
000 majority. To overcome this
lead is impossible. The democrats
will elect their ticket.
The Blaine menagerie is on the
road, and Barnum’s greatest show
on earth pales into insignificance
But will it pay Blaine to start out
wi’h a circus at this season. There
are many republicans here who are
groaning over the spectacle. In
their opinion it is the tawdriest clap
trap, and docs not change a vote
except from him. Bat it was re
cognized by the party managers
that something must be done. New
York is quietly but solidly for
Cleveland. The democratic com
posure must he broken if possible.
The Germans of Ohio are going
democratic. Blaine will try to
magnetise them. Indiana. Michi
gan. Wisconsin and Illinois are
about given up. Blaine must show
himself in those states to save them.
In a word Blaine was orderqd to
take his whole stock of magnetic
infiuence with him, and start on the
road in order to save the republi
can party from utter defeat. But it
is a desperate resort and it won’t
do. People will turn out to see if
he is really tatooed but, they won’t
vote for him. And in the mean
time the campaign treasurers, for
such are the government employes,
have quit paying out their money.
They fear that a “cold day” is com
ing about March 4th.
A striking feature of social life at
the Capitol during this season is the
crowds of beautiful and handsomely
dressed ladies that throng Pennsyl
vania avenue every pleasant after
noon. I heard a fashionable New
Yorker say yesterday that he met
more pretty women in an hour’s
stroll than would cross his pathway
in his native city in two days.

a'- was a day fruitful of »aia
attempts to suicide.
Early in the morning Alice Glov
er, a young woman who resides on
Elliott street, went to the old min
eral spring near the Gate City gas
works, and in the presence of Mag
gie Johnson, a negro woman, swal
lowed about five grains of mor
phine. For the past week Alice
Glover has been living with Mrs.
A. G. Sanger, whose home is in a
dozen yards of the mineral spring.
She was not employed by Mrs.
Sanger, but was merely attending
Mrs. Sangers sick child. She has
always borne a good reputation and
Jor some time past has been receiv
ing visits from a young man named
Clemmons. Clemmons first called
upon the young woman at her
home attd "after she went to Mrs.
Sanger’s he called there to see her,
His visits were frequent, but on
Thursday night he called the last
time and when he left he informed
Miss Glover that he would call no
more. She asked him for an expla
nation, but he declined to give one
and when he went away left her
sitting in the door crying. The
next day the woman told Mrs. San
ger of the rupture and on Saturday
went to a drug store and purchased
five grains ot morphine. That
night she intimated to several per
sons with whom she talked that she
would not be in this world much
longer, and early Snnday morning
she went to the spring and swal
lowed the drug. Maggie Tohnson,
a colored womau who lives near the
spring, was p esent, and seeing the
woman when she put the morphine
in her mouth, asked her what it was.
She frankly stated that it was mor
phine, and that she had taken it to
kill herself. The negro woman
quickly gave the alarm, and Drs.
Asher"and Quillain were sent for.
They arrived before the morphine
had taken much effect and gave the
woman an emetic which produced
the desired effect. She was then
made to exercise herself until the ef
fects of tl.e drug had passed away,
after which she was taken to her
home on Elliott street. While the
physicians were with her they
found a pistol which she had sacret-
ed in her stocking and with which
she said she intended to shoot her
self if the morphine failed to accom
plish the result she wished. Sunday
night she was quite sick hut yester
day she was able to be up and talk
with her friends. She declines,
however, to assign any cause for the
attempt to kill herself and when she
is asked about Clemmons, she smiles
and says that she knows little and
cares less about him. She has not
said that she will try it again.
AN OLD WOMAN JUMPS INTO A
POND.
Sunday morning Mrs. Mollie
Phillips, "a widow fifty-seven years
of age, sought death under the
muddy surface of Faith’s pond. Mrs.
Phillips lives on Mill street with her
son, and until quite recently has ap
peared to he happy and satisfied.
Lately, however, she has been low-
spirited, and frequently has been
heard to say that she wished her
time would come as she was tired
of living. Sunday morning she
left home and went direct to Faith’s
pond, which is more than a half
mile distant, after reaching the pond
she stood upon the bank awhile and
then, as if seized by a sudden
thought sprang in. The water was
only about four feet deep, ana as
soon as she touched it a change
came over her mind and reaching
up, she grabbed the limb of a tree
which was hanging over the. water
and held on until a man named Gib
bons came by and helped her out.
Mrs. Phillips was then taken to her
home, and she has about recovered
from the effects of her bath.

Capt. James T. Sage and Messrs.

C'

17, composed a fishing party to the

gentlemen reached the point select
ed for their sport about the peep of

Capt. Sage chose to try their luck
seated on the end of the dam, by the
Indian chute, just where the stiff
current begins to break into white
caps of warning to adventurous
navigators. The other three elected
to move out from the dare fifteen or
twenty yards and fish in the skiff in
which they had come and which
they made fast to the dam by a
strong rope.
They had hardly begun operations
before some monster of. the deep
seized the captain’s line with such
vigor and heat that the captain was
pulled from his base and jerked
headlong into the water. The Com
modore rushed to the assistance of
the captain, who was hanging on
to the monster with might and main,
but their united strength counted as
nothing against the swift current,
and the furious energy of the cap
tain’s catch. The men in the boat,
seeing the imminent danger of their
friends in the water, became excit
ed and upset the small skiff t and for
a moment all five seemed doomed

Dr. DeVotie is the great mission

contributed by 42 associations, with
its 100,000 members’ passed through
his hands. He travels all over the
state, and attends every meeting of
these associations, when possible
to do so, looking after the cause
fie represents, and when not thus
engaged, disbursing the funds in
home and foreign fields when need

country, was above par. So none

A Brooklyn Boy Bitten by a Dog Dios In TorrlMe
Agony.
Little Willie Maher died at his
home, No. 224 Pacific street, Brook
lyn, yesterday morning from the
bite of a dog. The boy was nine
years old, and was the only child of
Mrs. Kate Maher, a widow. Last
Wednesday afternoon he was play
ing in front of the stable of Michael
Gallagher. No. 172 Pacific street,
when a large female bulldog bit
him severely.
He was taken to the office of Dr.
Reynolds, at Smith and Atlantic
streets, who dressed the wound.
The dog was shot soon afterward
by a policeman. The following day
the sufferings of the unfortunate
boy were intense, and Dr. Rock
well was called upon to attend him.
Upon making an examination he
discovered that in addition to the
bite the boy was injured internally
A consultation of physicians was
held, which resulted in an operation
being performed. The condition of
the chi!(| became worse and a sec
ond operation was resorted to on
Friday. Toward evening the limbs
and body of the little sufferer grew
black from blood poisoning. He
remained conscious, however, until
morning, when, extending his arms
upward, he exclaimed, “Papa, papa,

PAPER DOORS.
Doors made of paper are being
used in a number of apartment
houses now being built in New
York city. The doors of paper cost
about the same as woodfeu ones, and
are preferred by builders because
they neither shrink, swell, crack,
nor warp. They are composed of
thick paper boards, stamped and
moulded into panels, cemented to
gether with glue and potash, made
to firmly and permanently adhere
by being passed between heavy
rollers. After being united they are
first covered with a waterproof coat
ing, followed by a fire-proof coat,
ing, then painted and varnished,
and are ready to be hung. Except
from the lightness those not in th<
secret would not suspect that the
doors are not made of wood. When
used as sliding-door* the weight is
not easily noticed and the illusion
is perfect.
The chief industry in the Catskill
region of New York, a local letter
says, is producing wood flour,
kind of cousin to wood pulp. It
was first manufactured in the Cat
skills about nine years ago, and now
over twenty mills are in full blast.
The process is exceedingly simple.
Any soft wood tree—poplar is the
favorite—is felled and drawn to the
mill. The bark and boughs are re
moved and the trunk put in a ma
chine which is nothing but a lead
pencil sharpener on a large scale,
with four or more knife edges in
stead of one. On starting the ma
chine the pencil sharpener revolves
with great swiftness, and in a few
minutes converts the log into a hun
dred miles of fine, clean shavings
These are ground and bolted exact
ly as in a flour mill. The product
is a soft, fine, yellowish-whith flour,
similar in appearance to a very well
ground corn meal. It possesses a
slight woody smell, and is almost
tasteless. It is put up in large bags
and then dispatched, unmarked, to
the buyer.
I tried to find out who purchased
the article, but with no success. The
wood miller was not very commu
nicative.
“It makes,” he said, “well I don’i
know how much exactly. One log
may give five bags, and it ma give
ten". It sells well—that is, prety
tolerable. I reckon I clear about
eight or nine dollars a day out of it
■perhaps more. I never figgered
up. What’s it good for? Good
many things. It’s used to stiffen
paper, but if you put in too much
the paper gets brittle. Paper stock
is dearer than poplar flour, and that’s
why they put it in. It you mix the
flour with linseed gum and ‘biled’
oil you get a kind of oilcloth. Some
folks mix it with meal to give to
pigs and other animals. I guess it’i
good, but I never give it to my
hogs, and even those fellows
give it to some ' other
lellow’s critters and not their
own. Yes, I have heard that some
bad contractors mixed it with meal
for army and Indian supplies, but 1
won’t take much stock in the story,
because they could buy sour meal
as cheap as poplar flour. It won’t
lay to mill either pine or cedar or
lemloek; thejr’reworth to much as
timber. But any wood that isn’t
used that way can. be milled into
flour. I use poplar almost alto
gether, but when I run short of
ogs, I grind up button, ball, birch,
elm or willow.
The farmers dislike the new in
dustry, as it promises to play havoc
with the forest, which are both an
attraction to the borderiand a pro
tection to agriculture. The tan
neries years ago used up nearly all
the oak and hemlock; the lumber
men have stripped the country prac
tically of pine, cedar and walnut;
the chair factories are consuming
the hickory and maple; and now
the wood-flour mill promises to
grind up what remaining trees
there may be.

WATEItDURY, CONN., Sept. ZQ.-
C.irric Welton, whose death from
freezing while descending Long’s
Peak, Col., as reported in yester
day’s dispatches, was born in this
city in 1S42, and resided here most
of her life. She was finely educat
ed and a brilliant horsewoman, with
propensity to do uncommon things,
and achieved a reputation for cour
age and physical endurance. ’Her
home here, Rose Hill Cottage, is
the handsomest residence in the
city. At her father’s death the
house was left to her mother and
the grounds to the daughter. Her
father was a wealthy manufacturer
and was killed several yCars ago by
a kick from his daughter’s horse.
Miss Welton had already this season
ascended Pike’s Peak, and had writ
ten home within a month of her ex
ploits performed and contemplated.
Her mother is now on the way
home from Europe. The body will
be brought here for interment in
Riverside cemetery.
Denver, Sept. 27.—Later infor
mation of the death of Miss Carrie
E. Welton, who petished in the
snow storm while making the de
scent of Long’s Peak, Tuesday
night, are received. The opinion
has become general that Miss Wel
ton was deserted by her guide, who
did not return to "the rescue until
next morning. Mr. Gilbert, the
liveryman at Estes Park, says that
obedient to Miss Welton’s orders,
lie drove over to the guide's house
Wednesday morning to meet her
on her return from the summit and
drive her back to Estes Park hotel.
On reaching the guide’s house he
was informed of Miss Welton’s
death, and told that father and son
were on the peak bringing the body
down. ”rte livery man drove rap
idly up the trail five miles, where he
met the men with the body, which
was found only a mile further on.
It was then 10 o'clock in the morn-
fag. six hours from the time the
guide says he found the body. The
residents of the peak discredit the
guide's story, and charge him with
criminal cowardice, possibly re
sponsible for the lady’s death." The
coroner will investigate.

These reports are made every two
years, and when the last report was
made in iSSz there were 1.243 con
victs on the rolls against 1.36S at
iresent. Since the last report 447
lave been discharged, 57 have been
pardoned, 60 deaths have occurred
and 51 escapes have been effected.
The death rate in 1SS1-2 was 50-100
of one per cent., while for the two
years just ended it has been i£ per
cent, per annum. The forthcoming
report of Dr. Westmoreland will
show the cause for this increase and
will perhaps suggest some means by
which the death rate can be mate
rially reduced.

cate of the establishment of a house

it was a very bad debt, and I came

endured in that time. The first
night she broke through a fence
