A young Tucson, Arizona, lady when dis-
robiug a few evenings since became painfully
aware, by a wriggling under her corset
strings, that there was an intruder of some
kind to be got rid of, so hastily striking a
light she discovered an imprisoned scorpion,
about two and a half inches long, which had
borne her company the day through. 'For-
tunately, it had become so fastened as to be
unable to do her injury. It must have been
a pretty robust scorpion to stand ten hoursj
squeezing such as a woman’s corset-lacing
involves.
Even when the course of true love does
run smooth, so weak and contrary is hu-

strain his mind with imaginary perils, as the

The present license law is not sustained by
public sentiment. It isyanti-democrauc. It
seeks to create a liquo’r monopoly. It makes
a distinction between citizens, establishing a
distinct property class. It promotesperjury,
corruption and blackmail. It holds out a
premium for professional “informers" and
rapaoious prosecuting agents to prosecute
saloon keepers. The law should be modified
and democrats openly dedlare that they would
modify it if given the power.—New Harm

Jim’s Education. \
Old Ned’s son returned from college the

which he invited a large number of acquaint -

man waited several days, and when at last he
saw no evidences of his son’s education, he
approached him and said: °

Connecticut Germans.
Hanrronn, Oct 9, 1882.
A movement to divert German votes from
the republican party in Connecticut assumed
definite shape in New Haven this afternoon.
The project is based upon the presence in the
republican platform of a plank favoring sub-
mitting to the people at the polls a constiu-
tional amendment prohibiting the manufac-
ture or sale of intoxicating liquors. The nu.
clone of the movement is the Fortschrittes
Band, or Progressive Union, of New Haven,
and its several subordinate societies through-
out the State sent to tbeConvention delegates
representing the several Senatorial districts.
There was a diversity of opinion among the
republican and democratic members as to
whether the Convention should put forward
an independent ticket or make up a ticket
composed of those candidates of the two
regular tickets who are not antagonistic to
the principles of the Fortscbrittes Baud.
ACTION or rnn~umom .
The latter idea prevailed and the result was
the formation of a ticket composed of all the
nominees of the democratic State Ticket
with the exception of Mr. Sanford, of Red-
ding, candidate for Comptroller. For this
place the convention selected General Slant,
of New Haven, candidate for Comptroller on
the republican ticket. Mr. Sanford in the
Legislature last winter voted for the new liq-
uor'license law, which is obnoxious to many
Germans. The idea was advanced add a -
plauded in the Convention that the main pur-
pose of this movement by the Germans is to
compel the exclusion by either party for all
time of prohibition as a political issue, on
the theory that it is a moral rather than a po-
litical question. The Executive Committee
was authorized to issue campaign literature.

The republicans of the first district have
done well in renominating the Hon. John R.
Buck for congress. Although he" has been
been there but one term he has shown him-
self to be an able and trustworthy represen-
tative, with a capacity for growth. There
has been an outcry, weak, and confined to a
few people, against him because he voted
for the river and harbou bill. His vote was
undoubtedly actuated by motives which
were entirely prOper, and to cast him asidé
because of this vote, even if it was a mis-
take, would bo a blunder, not only serious
but almost criminal. He explained his'
situation very satisfactorily to the conven-
tion and left very little chance far carping
,criticism from his opponents.—1{erfden

The German societies of Con necticut have
followed the example of their countrymen
in Ohio, and undertaken to commit their
members t9 the support of the democratic
ticket. Their object is to securc‘the repeal
of the Sunday laws, and the enactment of a
less stringent license law. We think it will
be found to be a mistake to drag these be:
nevolent. social and musical ‘ socities into
politics for any purpose whatsoever. or for
our foreign citizens, of any nationality, to
separate thenisclveerom the body of the
people to take partisan action as a class. If
they have any political appeal to make, it
would be far wiser to make it as American
citizens than as German societies—Boston

would secure it.” "Just so.” “And feeling

after paying over the last dollar the was
closed like a jack-knife." “And left you

fernal aid was had continued a month lou-

visement,'but it is doubtful if he ever rushed
