Buoosssion.
=ach leered a Conspleuous Fallure Wheo
It Came to Deliverigs the Goods
for Warrison.
WAexanGoTo, Aug. 28,-Political circles
here are discussing the apparent eclipse of
Secretaries Charles Footer and Stephen B.
Elkins. They have not figured in any of
the party oonsultations of late, and there
really seems to be no important work eat
out for them to do. Nor does their society
appear to be as essential to the presiden t'
comfort now as at one time. The day when
they were always near him, advising him
and taking special commissions from him,
has evideatly gone by, and they have
dropped back into the rut of local man
agers. Foster struggling to keep his own
head up in Ohio and Elkins doing what he
ean to control the machine in West Vir
Rgiia. As the story goes here, the presi
dent has been bitterly disappointed in both
men. They were called into the cabinet
purely and entirely because of their repu
tation as managing politiolans and
their supposed ability to placate cer
tain interests at that time antago
nistio to the second term project. Foster
was to bring Ohio into line by making
peace between the administration and the
Blaine contingent, led by' ex-Governor
Foraker. Neither Sherman nor McKinley
could be utilized for this work. Both were
friendly enough to the president, but, un
fo tonately for him, both were at outs with
Foraker. But Foster, who through all the
republican contention in Ohio had re
marined in touch with Foraker, was sup
posed to possess the necessary influence,
and to his hands was committed the deli
cate task. He went to Ohio several times
to see Foraker, and he invited Foraker here
several times to be his guest. It was all to
no purpose, however. Foraker refused to
come into the Harrison camp, and worked
so indastriously on the outside that at
Minneapolis all but one of the Ohio dele
gation appear on the roll oall for the nomi
nation in opposition to the president.
The servioe expected of Elkins was not
only of more importanes than that Foster
was to perform, but it was of the highest
importance. He was to deal directly with
Blaine himself and make it sure that the
president was not antagonized directly or
indirectly by' the Maine statesman. Elkins
had been for years one of Blaine's closest
friends, a frequent visitor at his house and
a sharer in all of the secrets respecting his
politioal plane. In fact, so intimate were
the two men that the bare oircumstance of
the-acceptance by Elkins of the portfolio
of war was accepted in some quarters as
evidence that Blaine would not enter the
race for the presidential nomination. Elk
ins. howeve-, went diligently to work to
serve his new chief and spent the greater
part of his leisure in Blaine's society.
Up to the last moment Elkins expressed
the opinion in the moaeet confident way that
Blaine would not oppose the president; that
Clarkson and Quay were using Blaine's
name without authority, and that in due
season they would be called down. Blaine's
trip to New York even failed to change El
kins' view of the situation. Blaine's resig
nation come like a bolt from the blue sky,
and not only stunned the president, but
laid out Elkin completely. He has not to
this day recovered from the shook. Like
his colleague, Foster, he had failed in the
one thing he had been supposed to be best
qualified to attend to, and so he passed to
the rear. He has been intrusted with no
great mission since. He has been active in
putting a republican ticket into the field in
West Virginia, but it is not a ticket that
excites any enthuslasm and its prospects
are anything but bright.
The passing of Foster and Elkins as na
tional quantities has been so marked that
the speonlation is even against their re
maining in the cabinet longer than next
march. even should the president be re
elected. Having failed as politicians, the
judgment is that they have failed altogether.
Foster is not a great financier, nor does
Elkins appear to be a g:oat war minister.
The president does not care to hold on tc
them longer than may be necessary. The
prediction, indeed, is freely made here that
both portfolios are now in the can'paign
as honors to be battled for by aspiring re
publican leaders in doubtful states.
LUKEWI ARJ FOR HARRKISON.
Indlana Republlcans Indifferent to the
President's Success.
WASHRnOTON. Aug. 28.--Some exceedingly
discouraging news is reaching the White
house the a days from Indiana. Thersl ub
hloan diafdection does not yield to treat
ment and the prospects of democratic vio
tory in November are very bright. A new
trouble has arisen. That is to say, an old
trouble. which the republican managers in
their tribulations about other things had
almost forgotten, is making itself felt
again, and, when added to other complica
tions, threatens serious consequences.
Four years ago there were a number of
prominent iepublicans in the Hoosier state
who took small interest im the fortunes of
General Har ison, but who forbore to carry
their feelings to the polls. They were
reached at the last moment by appeals to
their state pride, and much against
the grain they supported the
party candidate. This time they
are represented as being obdurate. Three
ears of Gen. Harrison in the ofice of
president has served to increase their dis
like of hitm, and they will either vote out
right for Mr. Cleveland or remain at horne
on election day. ' hey are men who cannot
be placated by patronage, for they arc
asking nothing. Their opposition has not
grown out of disappointment about office.
They were anti-IIa.rison men long before
the object of their dislike became a na
tional quantity. In the main they are per
sonal fitends and supporters of .Judge
Gresham and are tired of the Harrison
domination at home. These men, allied to
that larger number of republians who
have asked for favors at the hands of the
administration and been slighted, have be
lcose an important factor. Another ap
peal to their state pride is to be made, but
that they can be itllusnced this tiuse when
their favorite. Judge Gresham, is known to
be thoroughly indifferent to ltarriseun'asuo
aess, seems most unlikely, and the preal
dent's friends are much disturbeid.
THEY WILl. HOLD. THElIt OWN.
I)emoerats tot Likely to Have Any Less
Majority in the Next tiuse
WAesmrNron, Aug. 28.-The popular ex
pectation has been that the present large
I)emoeratio majority in the house of rep
resentatives would be reduced In the next
congress. This idea was based noon the
uac. that in the ninety onareonreoaal dis
tritas whlch have usually been curied bt
the roeublieas, the democratles msjori
ranged from ten to 800 votes. The ro~ebl
can measn rs have elaimed that it would
be impossible for the demoerats to retain
manya of these in the presidential yert and
thus the present majority in the ouse
would be considerably redneed. Now that
the campaign has warmed up to a ousllder
able extent the probability of a reduetion
of the demoeratie majority in congrese is
found to he conasderably less.
Some advantage will accrue to the
republicans by reason of the gerrymander
in Ohio. The present conugressional
deleaation from that state stands fourteen
demoorate to seven republicans. The last
general assembly of Ohio so redistricted
the state that the republicans believed that
they could carry sixteen out of twenty-one
distrlets. Benently, on his return from
Ohio, In siziag up the political situation in
that state, Seeretary Foster predioted that
only fifteen districts would be carried,
which shows that the gerrymander was not
quite so effective os it was intended to be.
The district represented by Michael D.
Harter was changed with the ides of mak
ing his return impossible; but the advises
coming from that district at this time are
to the effect that he will sarry it. The
ninety districts which were earried two
years ago by the democrats in the face of
so-called republiean majorities were
generally earried on the square
issue of tariff reform. The
reseords of the democrstie congressional
committe Ia the oity show that a very
large percentage of thes new members are
receiving renominations, and that the de
mand for tariff reform literature from those
sections is inareasing. The nomination of
Cleveland has given the issue of tariff re
form a greater strength than it had two
years ago. and while the republicans may
gain a few seats by reason of the Ohio ger
rymander and the fact that the representa
tion in Pennsylpania and a few other
states has been increase , the probabilities
are that the demotratic majority of the
present house will be duplicated in the next
because of the fact that in the west and
northwest many districts will be captured
which have heretofore been uniformly re
publican.
Another Presidential Ticket.
NEw YoaK, Aug. 28.-The socialist labor

WATER THAT DYES RED.
A Peculiar sprint That Can Tlnt Any .rb
staneo Crimson.
G.ErNUP, Ky., Aug. 28.-At Hardin fari
near here lies the Red spring, which for
years has been used by the old ladies in
that vicinity to color their carpet rags, by
the young ladies to color their dress goods
and ribbons and blondine their hair. The
water of this spring looks as clear as crys
tal and is remarkable bid. This water is
much used at the approach of Easter Sun
day to color eggs, and the strange thing
about it is the difference in color upon ar
ticles of different quality. It colors eggs,
ribbons and dress goods a crimson red; the
flesh of jersons a light blood red. The
color is permanent in both cotton and silk
goods dyed by the water. The change pro
dueod in human hair generally lasts
about three weeks, while a po.
son who bathes in its waters is given a coa
that lasts about six weeks. Soap applied It
any articles died by the water but strength
ens the intensity of the color. People from
miles around come and early the water
away in bottles, jugs and barrels to use in
dyeing various articles.
The appearanee of a family by the nuam
of Bland whose color has always boon,
phenomenon is now explained, it is believed,
by their having always used the water fo.
drinking and bathing purposes. So lonu
have they used it that its qualities seem tc
have permeated their systems and its effect
are seen in their progeny to the fourth gen
eration. They have known of this sprina
for a long time, but kept its qualities
seoret. It was divulged resently by ayoung
man who had married into the family.

THE FIGHT OF THE AGE,
Sullivan's Friends Say That It Is
All Over now Except the
Shouting.
The Backers of Corbett Believe
He WIll Win the Big
Battle.
An Opinion of the Two Contestants as
Written By an Admirer of the
Boston Mlan.
N1w Yonx, Aug. 28.-The work of prepa
ration is virtually finished by Corbett and
Sullivan, and now each aims and hopes to
go into the ring on the night of Sept. 7 in
as good shape as he is at present. Sullivan
was first to quit training. He quit hard
work on Tuesday, in order to give his badly
blistered feet an opportunity to heal. As a
matter of fact the bad condition of his feet
has given his friends some concern, but he
feels sure they will be all right. If they are
not they are apt to trouble him a good deal
if the eneounter with Corbett should be a
protracted one. The admirers of Sullivan
sannot see how he can be defeated. They
boldly announce, in fact, that he has a ver
itable walk over and that the battle is all
over but the shouting. They argue that
Sullivan has trained as he never did before.
He is stronger, too, than ever, and as much
of a human hurricane as when he mowed
down Ryan. Mitchell, Slade, Herald, Wilson
and Kilrain. No living man, they declare,
can stand his rushes, and the same fate
awaits Corbett as befell the other ambitious
aspirants for championship honors.
The friends of Corbett predict a wholly
different outcome of the great battle. They
claim Sullivan never met a man of Corbett's
calibre before in his life. In skill, strength
and quickness he is a perfect marvel. In
addition to these qualities of a great fight
er, "Pompadour Jim" has a natural ad
vantage over Sullivan in the way of height
and reach. He is three inches taller, and
the length of his arms is extraordinary.
His hitting powers are but slightly inferior
to those of Srllivan, and his nimbleness is
sure to keep him out of harm's way. Nat
urally, they claim, he has far the greater
endurance, and ten years of youth in his
favor cannot but aid him in case of a pro
tracted struggle.
So reason the partisons of both sides.
Conservative sportsmen who are familiar
with such performances are of the opinion
that neither has a mortgage upon the purse
and stakes. They believe that the battle
will be a hard, scientific one from start to
inish, and that it will last for something
like an hour. A diagnosis of each man's
case was given today by Charles Johnson
and Prof. Mike Donovan, particularly close
friends and advisers of Sullivan and Cor
hett respectively. "John," said Philoso.
n)l r Johnson, "is now ready to fight for a
kil gdom. , se is down to 208 pounds, and
never felt better or stronger In his life.
The slight lameness caused by the blister
on his heel is now gone and the big fellow
is as spry as a eat and as strong as a lion.
Of course he feels perfectly confldent of
winning and that in short order. lie does
not mean to waste his strength chasing
Corbett, however, should the Californian
attempt to adopt Charley Mitchell's tacties.
If Corbett stands up and fights the battle
will be of short duration, but if he attempts
to run John will be found equal to the
emergency and stay all night, if necessary,
to whip his man."
The opinion or Miae Monovan, or moe
New York Athletic club, is equally interest
ino. "Barring acoidents," said the veteran,
"Jim will win the great light of the century
at New Orleans on kept. 7. He is in prime
condition, strong as a tiger and quick and
energetio as a oat. Certain it is he does not
expect an easy thing, although confident of
victory. On the contrary, he anticipates a
fiereo and most determined struggle, and
quite naturally, for he known he will face
the greatest fighter the world has yet seen.
However, he is buoyant, confident and
check full of courage. I am not at liberty
to state what Jim's plan of battle will be,
but of one thing you can rest assured. Jim
wont sprint like Mitchell. Of course he
wont stand like a fool and get punched, or
engage in a rough and tumble style of
fighting, but will hit and get away eleverly.
All Sullivan's rushee will be skilfully met.
and win or lose, the big fellow will know he
has been in some fight."
Both pugilists will be in town to-morrow,
where they will remain until they leave on
their respective trains for the battle ground.
Sullivan will show at the Clermont avenue
rink In Brooklyn to-morrow night. Corbett
on the other hand, will give a double
headed entertalament at Madison liSqare
garden, The afternoon entrrtainmsua will
consist chiefly of exhibiting his style of
training to the publie. In the evening the
entertainment will consist chiefly of box
ing, wrestling and exhibition of hand ball
playing between him and Lawlor, the Irish
champion. It is pretty generally believed
both entertainlments will be largely at
tended. The spoiting public is somewhat
anxious to know what the outcome will be
of the meeting to-morrow between Jim
Corbett and Dominick McCaffrey. Corbett
feels just as confident he is going to defeat
Sullivan, asarllivan does that he will h-ve
a soft snap with Corbett.
THE CONTESTANTS.
A Frlead of Sullivan Compares the Fight
eIg Qualltlies of the Two Men.
The following comparison of the two big
flihters is written by a friend of the Bos
ton man: Bullivan's life may be said to
have commenced and to have ended with
his two ring battles. And now it may be
said to have commenced again with the bat
tile that is so near at hand. It was on Feb.
7, 1882, that Paddy liven, then champion
pugilist of America, and John L. Sullivan,
a Boston boy, fought at Mississippi City.
At that time Sullivan was twenty-five years
of age. He stood five feet ten and one-half
inches in his stockings, weighed 170 pounds
and seemed as strong and stout as an ox.
This young fellow was bronght face to face
with the then champion of the prize ilng.
Paddy Ryan was a 'lipperary boy, .stood
six feet one inah in his stockings, and
weighed 220 pounds. Smeall wonder then
that in this particular mill the betting was
all on Ryan's side and oilers of two to one
on hint went begging. But those who wit
nessed the fight will remember what a one
sided affair it was. Ae a fighter Sullivan
proved himself a demon. Hle surprised the
natives at the way he slaughtered his op.
pounet. It ceemitr aS though hullivaI had
won the battle in the very first round. At
that stage he dealt Hlvar a eswining lelt
hand blow over the heart, whlol neatly
ended the pruoceedings then and there. In
tihe second round Sullivan won first blond,
and In tile third i ean comuueonced to go
down to avoid puniehtbent.
In tire fourth Sullivan nearly slaughtered
the Trojan. In the tfith and sieth round
Sullivan sent tyan to grees, ind ii the ser
enth he cross buttocked him. In the eighth
round Ryan wee carried away as limp as a
rag. No one exprected hint to face tile
scratch in the ninth roand.
int to the surprise of all Ryan then came
up agalt and made several furious lIages at
Salilvan. This nettled the Bostonian, who
quickly put the finitehas touches on his an
tago ist and then ended the battle by push
inQo lran down.
Between the meeting with RIyan and Bol
livan's battle with Jake Kltrain, Richburg,
Miss., there was a lapse of seven years.
Kllrain and Sullivan met on July 8, 18189.
It was said at that time that Sullivan was
broken down and In no condition for a hard
fight. The writer had a chance to compare
the Sullivan who met Ityan and toe Holii
van who met Kilrain when the former
stepped in the ring at tlichburg. When he
fonuht Rlyan there was not an ounce of su
perfluous flesh about him, and he weighed
a little lesse than 180) pounds. But when he
faced Kilrain he was as broad as a barn
door and as deep as a well, and tipped the
scale at 2'20 pounds. He was in no condi
tion for a fight, but even at that he fought
like a demon, and at no stage of the pro
ceedings was the battle in doubt.
Sullivan had just recovered from a se
rious illness before he had commenced to
t ain for this battle with Kilrain, and pre
vious to that he had ignored all rules re
lating to sobriety. Under the circorn
stances his battle.with Kilrain was an eye
opener to even those who had comne to look
on Bullivan as ninincible. HButalthough he
was victorious in that memorable contest,
it learned him a leseen he has seemed to
profit by. His life since then has under
gone a omarked change, and the Sullivan of
to-day is much like the Sullivan who faced
Rtyan in the early days of the champion's
career.
A photograph of Sullivan, taken a week
ago, shows that he has trained down to 21(0
pounds, and that be looks very much like
the Sullivan who gave Paddy Ryan ench a
fearful drubbing. These are the facts in
relation to Sullivan as they stand now, and
they give one an idea as to the condition
he will be in when he faces Corbett at New
Orleans next month. As a matter of fact,
I Sullivan will be then in the very height of
his power. as a man and as a pugilist.
Those who have passed that year will testi
r fy to the fact that a man is never so strong
as between the ages of thirty and forty.
I 3ulliva is in his thirty fifth year.
Now a word as to Corbett. That young
pugilist may be said to be the luckiest star
in the profession. He has had two battles
e which have given him prestige and standing
.a in the pugilistic world. lie fought Jackson
at San Francisco when that great pugilist
was a sick and a lame man, and the draw
which ensued gave to Corbett a real stand
7 ang in the prize fighting world. Then be
s met Kilrain at a time when that individual
b was untrained and broken down from the
terrible beating he had received at the
hands of iullivan, and the result was an
other feather in Corbett's cap, But the
victory was one which those on the inside
tgave little heed to. It is these two fights
really that have Riven Corbett reputation,
and it is these two alone which make some
people believe that he is a fit man to mill
r with John L. Sullivan.
BEATEN BY A BRUTE.

5 A Helena Woman sBally Handled by a
Great Falls Man.
GREAT FALLS, Aug. 28.-[Special. ]-A
French woman named Andrea, from Hel
r elena, who has been playing the races in
n this city the past week, had a narrow escape
ie from death to-day at the hands of Joe
e Hazelwood, a colored jubilee singer in the
g Mascott theater. The brute knocked her
s down, kicked her in the face and body, and
n then to finish the job grabbed an ax and
*9 tried to split her head. She dodged the
r- blow, however, and the ax grazed her shoul
der. just cutting through the skin. The
Ld woman's screams brought assistance and
e. the negro fled, pursued by Deputy Sherift
ir Martin and the police. The deputy fired
five shots at Hazelwood, but failed to atop
f him. He then handed his empty revolver
as to a cowboy on horseback, who chased the
Lg would-be murderer across the river and
n held him up with the empty gun. There
are two versions of the affair, one that
s Hazelwood was the woman's lover and that
cc the fight was the result of a quarrel, and
7. the other is that the assault was because
of the woman's refusal to go and live with
him. The victim is badly braised, but not

A MINE OF SKELETONS.
Runlus of a Prehistoric City DIscovered
Near Pructorrsvlle, O.
PROOTORSVILLE, O., Aug. 28.-Skeletons
of gigantic stature and remarkably well
preserved and in large numbers, together
with many curious instruments, have been
such common discoveries for, miles along
the river south of here as to attract slight
attention. An nnausually large find of skele
tons in a small space led T. A. Walton, one
of the most learned men of the county, to
investigate and in a card to the lionton
Daily Register cites authority for the state
ment that this town is located on the site of
a prehlttormo city very like those of ancient
Mexico. It had streets paved with
bowlders and vitrltied bla.e, water
service, stone and brick houses,
baths, decorated pottery, ovens for
preparing food and many other signs of
oivilizatcon. Superficial exoavations expose
the streets. The houses have been leveled
by some catastrophe, but hewn beamnie and
carved stone are found in profusion. A
methodical scientific sealoh would leveal a
world of wonders. Most of the skeletons
found in the superficial and desultory dig
gings have double rows of teeth. The am
plements and ornaments found are deli
cately carved. The field is a rich one.

pe a ore of 217 to .
e MrssouLA, Aug. 28.-ISpecial.]-The day
he was too warm for comfort, but the playing
or done by the new Missoulas yesterday had
id the effect of bringing out the laraest crowd
seen on the ball grounds this season. The
he game put up by the home team was fault
al less but the playina of the "Burghers" was
he very '"yellow." Emerke'a pitehing ie.
d eewived no support in the field. The score
if was swollen by rotten field work. In fact
it seemed to be an of day for the visitors
op and the whole team were rattled. They
or did not get a man to first base until the
he ame was half over. The quick work of the
nd Missoula's left no chances open. There
re were, however, several very difionlt catches
at made by the Phillipeba g team, which re
at .eied somewhat the bad errors. A bunch
of hits in the asth inning gave them a run.
* In the seventh inning Cross, Missoula's
th pitcher, retired from the game, and O'Brien,
the pitcher for the old Missoula nine, took
the box, but the Burghers had but little
better sccoess with him. Bcore:
