DETROIT, Oct. 10.-—-In reply to a letter from Chairman Daniel J. Campau, asking for aid in the Democratic campaign, Ed- win F. Uhl, ambassador to Germany, writes in refusing the request: “I do not recognize as the rightful rep- resentatives of true Democracy a conven- tion whose principles and policy, as enun- ciated in its platform, are at war with the historic tenets of that great political or.- ganization—a platform which strikes at the very essentials of our constitutional form of government and announces a pol- icy that would undermine one of the pil~ lars wrought into our peculiar system by .the founders of the Republic, without whose preservation that system cannot survive which ,assails the independence andintegrity of the supreme court of the United States because displease‘d'with one of its decisions, and promises, if given the power, to pack the court until its judg- ments shall accord with the will of the law enacting body; which threatens the de- basement of our currencyand favors legis~ lotion impairing the obligation of con- tracts; which in effect condemns the pres ident because he has faithfully executed the law. . “Such is the platform of. the Chicago convention. It is Democratic in name alone. Its spirit, its.essence, its tendency are un-Democratic, un-American, revolu- tionary, and loyal Democrats are charged with a grave and special obligation to see to it that no such noxious growth shall in the name of Democracy be engrafted upon the body politic.” A Letter From Watterson. LOUISVILLE, Oct. 10.—The Courier—Jour- nal today publishes an editorial letter from Henry Watterson, dated Geneva, in which the veteran editor says that the action of the Chicago convention has Caused him to return to politics, which he gave up two years ago, as he thought, for good. Mr. Watterson says: “The scandalous circum- stances attending the Chicago proceeding, the shameless abandonment of Democratic truth in the platform there adopted, and the grotesque character of the ticket nom- inated, left me no alternative as a true Democrat and an honest man, and having in this way been drawn back into a cer- tain relation to a political warfare, which - has never had any personal attraction to me, I am back to stay, and on my return to Kentucky shall consider myself enlisted for the war. I have no explanations to make or apologies to offer, and, ready to take all the blows it may please heaven to :send, please God they shall be returned - , with interest if the power in me lives. “There is'r but one hope for the country. ‘.but one: for- the Democratic party, and that hope lies imbedded in the principles fol- lowed by the Indianapolis platform and represented by the candidacy of Palmer and Buckner. ” To Fight For the Middle West. NEW YORK, Oct. 10.—-Bcginning next week the speakers’ bureau at Republican national headquarters will work dcublc time for two weeks and a small army of campaign orators, directed by General Powell Clayton, will invade the middle west.

Philadelphia magistrate is grist for him to grind for his own benefit. There appears to be a widespread impres- sion that the fees secured for per- forming marriage ceremonies are Perquisite's which the members of the minor judiciary dare tuck aWay in an inside pocket without making a record of'it. But that’s all a serious blurr- der. The law prescribes that a mag- istrate who links two loving hearts earns a $5 fee for the city, and when he makes a. return therefor the “V" must be forthcoming. The law was treated with more or less disregard until Comptroller Walton stepped into office. Then every cent had to be accounted for, and if a' bridegroom un- dervalued the services rendered and , tendered a fee of less than the legal. amount it fell to the unhappy magis- trate to make good the discrepancy. A few days ago a well-dressed young man,racompanied by a young woman arrayed in spotless white visited Magistrate O’Brien’s office and be- sought him to perform the act of pres- tidigitation which makes two one. The magistrate sized up the couple and felt no hesitancy in anticipating a. munlficent reward for his kindly ser- vices. Pronounced husband and wife, the senior member of the new combi- nation thrust 'his hand deeply into his inside pocket and brought ferth an envelope which, in the magnify- ing vision of the magistrate, looked to contain surely not less then a crisp ten. The envelope was sealed and not suspecting its real contents, Mr. O’Brien placed it in his own pocket. After the couple had gone the magis- trate tore open the paper 'and was almost transfixed when a $2 bill was revealed, Of course the only way to make the account good is for Mr. O’Brien to take the money from his own pocket. He doesn’t believe in paying for the privilege of discharg- ing one of his multifarious duties, and has written to the groom to produce the difference. The Boy Favored M'odern Methods. The boy Ihad been in thought for several minutes. At last he said.— “Ealther, it‘s 'wrong to fight, isn’t it?” “Yes, my son,” replied the father, pleased to .see that his lessons on the subject had not been wasted. “It’s wrong to try to settle disputes by resorting to force, isn’t it?” “It is, indeed,” returned the father. “The whole tendency of modern civi- lization is to do away with fighting of all descriptions.” “Muscle doesn't count for much as it used to, does it?” “No, my boy, physical prowess does not rank as high as mental ability in the world today.” The boy again relapsed into thought for a few minutes, apparently ponder- ing his father’s words. “Then, of course, we're all for peace now,” he. finally said. “Of course, perfect peace is the ideal for which we strive.” ‘ “And we should strive for rthat ideal in private and public afiairs, shouldn’t we?” “Always.” “That’s what I thought,” said. the boy, reflectively, “Don’t you think we have a good Opportunity to apply it now ?” g “In what way, my boy?” “Why, ‘lelt’s arbitrate the question of that licking that you are going to give 'me after dinner.

He was a stern taskmaster, but a- A-‘k‘indiy, sympatheitc man, for whom his pupils formed a cicere apd lasting " affectIOn. .. 'Eliza Goldman, then a dainty miss of sixteen and the favorite daughter. of a prosperous burglar, thought much of the handsome young school master. much'm'ore than her parents thought proper. Her liking soon developed~ into love,- and, as the young school- master wns not proof against her charms, they became engaged. Her parents’ opposition separated them. Gutma‘n, despondent and broken-hearted, came to the New World to forget his unfortunate at. tachment and to win fame and for; tune for himself. Time healed. his “wound, and he married Miss- Helena Wolf, and by frugality and hard work saved money and established himself as aTammany liquor dealer in New York city. For fifteen years he- do voted himself t obusiness, and accu mulated a fortune. TWO) years ago his wife died. [The dainty Eliza Goldman, in the meantime, at her parents’ command married a Samuel Fass, and with her husband came to America and made ' Brooklyn their home. After ten years of married life Fass died, and his Widow remained at No. 71 Amber; street. ' . One of Goldman’s friends, who knew. the story of his early disappointment in love, told him four months ago. that the one—time Miss Goldman, now the widow of Fuss, lived in Brooklyn, and Gutman began to act as if he were young again. He bought a gay neck- tie, a fancy vest and lovely crash clothes. Then, after visiting the bar- ber, he went to Brooklyn with elec tricity in his step and an. old time longing in his heart. Eliza Fass received him in her best widow’s gown, and her blushes were as noticeable as in the olden days. A little bit of celor and bright ribbons here and there had brightened up he]. attire when he called again, and after a third visit Gutman told his friends he was a happy man, and the en. gagement was announced. , common- EXPRESSIONS. Shakespeare Furnishes. an- Alrnost Unnum. her-able Quota of Them. The metaphor that struck our ances- tors as so admirable strikes us still, and we continue 'to use the apt adjec- tive which, first given by Shakes- peare or Milton, sounds as fresh to day as when originally applied. The “bubble reputation,” the “itch- ing palm,” “the milk of human kind- nose,” the “undiscovered country,” the “green-eyed monster,” still our favor- in: synonyms for fame, covetousness, humanity, eternity and jealousy, are from Shakespeare, who has indeed furnished us with much of our small coin. His adjectives are the most apposite, too, of any in the language. Quoting him, we speak of an “ancient grudge,” of “bated breath,” “this work. ing-day world,” good set terms,” “a foregone conclusion,” “better days,” “fell purpose,” “even-handed justice,” “golden opinions,” “a charmed life,” “a towering passion,” “a round, un- vamished talc,” “hairbreadth ’scapes,” and many more common expressions whose list it were but “damnable. iter- ation” to extend. Verbal phrases of his are also of themost familiar. To “dance attendance,” to “scotch the sniike, not kill it,” to “applaud to the echo,” to “sup with horrors,” to “die in harness,” “making night hideous,” “a. tale unfold,” to “out-Herod Herod,” to “fool to the top of his bent." to “cudgel oue’s brains,” to “speak ' by the card,” are some of the most obvious examples. . He Was YOung'in Pragtice. “Hadn’t you better call another phy- sician?” said the wife to the young doctor, who was treating her hus- band. “Just for consultation, you know.” “No, ma’am,” he replied. “My ideas are confused enough already.”—Buf— falo Times.
