Mr. Meyer's election can only be secured by the oxtomporized concurrence of forces which ordinarily are mutually antagonistic That would give a government of irresponsibility, unaceountability and incon clusion.

The rational thing to do is to elect the Democratio ticket and then to spur on tho forces within Democracy for the broadening and bettering of its organization. Mr. Boody's election would put tho organization on its best behavior, because it would have to act up to his standard or feel the hostility of the whole power of the great office committed to his hands. Mr. Meyer's election would leave the Democratic organization in tho hands of influences that would not advance it, but would make it more retrogressive than it is now.

As Brooklyn generally does the sensible thing and as Mr. Boody's election and that of the whole Democratic ticket would bo the eminently sensible thing, the Eagle expects that such a result will follow the campaign of which the discussion of the issues will close with Nicholas P.

Mr. Stoddard lectured to his usual largo and appreciative audience in the academy Thursday ovening. He chose as the subject of his final talk for thiB year, anyhow with hiB host of Brooklyn friends and admirers that most ancient and most immeiisivo of all countries Egypt. Tho pictures began with a Mediterranean scene, which waB enthusiastically applauded. Ho dealt br icfly with the classic memories that cling to this hiBtorie sea, which has beon tho sceno of moro maritime strife, perhaps, than any otiier body of water on the globs.

Then ho drifted into the harbor of Alexandria, and pointed out theBole remaining obelisk, explaining its chief points of beauty. A superb viow of Pompey's pillar was supplemented with several anecdotes and legends. Among tho formor was tho story of Napoleon's plan of inscribing the names of Freuch soldiers who had died in the course of the siege of Alexandria on the famous pillar, aud thereby putting such' a premium on death that his soldiers foil all over themselves, figuratively speaking, in their oagornosB to be killed, When Napoleon was chided for thus working upon tho imagination of his soldiers, ho made the memorable reply, "Imagination rules tho world." Once moro the lecturer waded into tho Nile, explaining, as he proceeded, the peculiar features of its annual overflow, and of its usefnluessto the country through which it flows. The Btatuo of Old Father Nile was then shown a mammoth fignro, over which in various attitudes, ware scat tered sixteen pigmies, representing sixteen cubits, or tho annual riso of the river. The next stop was made at gem of tho Nile," as Mr.

Stoddard said. This ancient city, the birthplace of the Arabian Nights, ii, according to Mr. Stoddard, the epitome of neatness and comfort. Exterior and interior viows of the more palatial residences were seen aud admired by bis audience, and then ho showed them some of the pooror houses. Most of theso latter were adorned with lattice work and bay windows, which would lead one to believe that Cairo isn't such a bad place for a poor man to live in.

Thou Mr. Stoddard's assistant switched on a beautiful see ue, with a diminutive donkey in tho foreground. The sceuo was applauded. The donkey wasn't iu Nevtr thelcss, Mr. Stoddard devoted hi most telling eloquenco for the next minute or so to an el.ibo.

rate description of the animal, explaining how the attendants bustle among tho tourists for patronage, and how, when one of thuiu corrals a customer, he steers him around towu on the donkey's back, using tho animal's tail as i ruddor. From mule to mosque is a big jump, but Mr. Stoddard accomplished it gracefully, landing among tho domes and towers and pillars and ruins of a mag niiiceut old structure in the heart of Cairo. Ho pointol out the place where (trsdition says so, at lonjt), Noah's ark came to a standstill, which is within a few feet of the place where (according wine sme r.utaority) jbojo oftercd np his son Islnnael as a A ttetini giauos was had of tho tooth strewn and hair bedr ijate of Cairo, whore all the old women with tooihacha and neuralgia go to seek cures from the Hebre.v spirit which is i aid to dwell within the gloomy structure. "Tho Arabians," said Mr.

Stoddard, inverting for a moment from tho cenc which lay before him, "would probably say, if asked what their idea of Satan was, that bo was a blonde, for, as the story goes, on first seeing an Englishman, thoir exclamation invariably wb, 'Vthy, he's as white as the Aseriejof beautiful and interesting scenes followed quickly one upon another. The story of the massacre of tho Mannalakes was told, the tombs of tho Caliphs were admired, and a shiver crept up tho back of the audi enco when Mr. Stoddard dropped down in the middle of a modern Egyptian burying ground, with graves made of loosely comented bricks, headstones stuck in the glistening sand and no verduro of any description within sight. He then showed a charming view of tho Virgin's tree, where it is Haid the Virgin Ma: and tho infant Josus took refuge during their flight from Effi'Pt. As soon as they had crept into tho hollow of this historic tree, tho legend says, an accommodating spider novo a web over the opening, and thus thoy wero protected from all harm.

It is said that a persistent English relic hunter spent considerable time searching for skeleton of the spider which wavo tho web, but up to date his quest has been fruitless. After a brief stop at tho vorago up the Nile was continued. Egypt's oldest city, the lotus flower in sculpture, tho plain of Thebes, tho tcmplo of Barneses, the statue of Memnon, charming ruins, awesome corriclorB aud mouldering wrecks of the greatest productions of architectural aenius Koatierod all along tho way wero uhown and talked about. Then Mr. Stoddard wont back to Cairo aain and showed his audionco boiuo of the modern conveniences and comfort of the city, after which ho took them into the vicinity of tho pyramids aud tho sphinx.

Theso oldest and most interesting ruins of all wrre described at loneth by the leoturor, the explanation being accompanied by numerous and coniprehenuiro viowb.

Lizzie Lorenz, a pretty brunetto about 25 years of age, with flashing black eyes and of either Spanish or French nationality, carao to this city from Brooklyn Thursday, to secure evidence against her husband, who, she claims, is a bigamist. Lorenz is the woman's maiden name. Her husband's namo ia The wife'B story ia to tho effect that on Memorial day, 1800, Bhe married Philip Miller of Brooklyn. They lived happily for some time, but recently lie deserted her.

Sho learned that ho had beon married again to a Miss Hannah Persick of Brooklyn, in this city. The records the town cicrk'B office showed that one William J. Millor aud Hannah Persick, both claiming Jorsey City as their home, had been married in this city by Rev. Beverly E. Warner, March 10 last.

Mrs. Miller No. 1 says that the William J. Miiler who married Miss Per siek is none other than her own Phillip. She secured a certifiod copy of the marriage from Town Clerk Watson, and, with her three Bisters, who accompanied her, boarded a train for Brooklyn to have Miller prosecuted.

Tho conductor and a passenger in tho car testified that while ia their scats, at the train was nearing the Grand bridge, a Btono crashed through a window of the ear, scattering the glass over the seats. The railroad company bogun an investigation, resulting in the arrest of young Clark. One Calyer, a boy, who was in the ricin ity, testified to seeing Clark throw three Btones at the train, one of which broke the glass. The defense waa an alabi, but all tho witnesses testified that Clark admitted stoning a train, claiming that it was on another day than that chargod. After hearing all the evidence JuBtico Howard held the defendant for tho grand Jury.

The offenders iu this class of cases aro usually re BPectablo appearing boys of ovil dispositions aud, owing to the cltlUculty in obtaining evidence, a conviction rarely results, The railroad ooinpany i determined to prosecute all such offenders vigorously, owing to tho danger to tho passengers resulting from stono throwing.

A. JJooilj. Rend the following Extract from an editorial of the Brooklyn Standard Union, Octobor 10, 1800. Of Mr. Boody, asule from politics, it mar bo eeid that lie reurosonts tho best citizenship of Brooklyn.

A lawyer by profession and a banker, it miclit be enicl, bynatural selection, he is identified with the city's interest in a hundred ways and is emphatically tho kind of man who should be selected for high public office. The trouble ia that Mr. Boody ban been 6clectod for the irronc kind of offico. As a candidate or municipal honors, even (tie highest the people can bestow, lie would be Itnrri to defeat The foregoing words were true when they were published and are true now. They conflict with much which the paper from which they are takon has said during the prtsent canvass, but what it baa 8aid during the present canvass, in conflict with such expression as that of October 10, 1890, has been wrong, just ns what it did say then as reprinted to day wus right.

We caro not to' press tho point of inconsistency on our contemporary, for it is an organ and it has to take the view that the Republican party does not do things because they are right, but that tilings are right becauso tho Republican party does them. But we commend to all of our readers the perusal of the extract from the Standard Union of October 10, 1890, as an evidence of what it really thinks about Mr. Boody whenever, under the compulsion of circumstances, it is not required to say that it thinks something else. Mr. Boody is just the kind of man the Standard Union then described, and he will be just the kind of mayor that he is as a man.

The Sta ndard Union, with all other Brooklyn interests, will share the benefits of Ids mayoral administration and be glad of the vindication of the good opinion which it expressed concerning him when it was free to do so. Ziefrlcr, Boody and tho Eajle. AVe received tins to day: To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: You Bay editorially last evening that 'when I prove Mr. Boody'a indorsement of the water project, instead merely asiertinit it, "the Kaoli will bo clad to hear from him me an indeed the always is." The fairaeas of the Eaole to ma I certainly appreciate. When both sides of political controversies can get Into the same newspaper, tiiat newspaper ia what all newspapers profess to be, a "public" institution, and a boon to the community.

Turnins to the issue the Eaole of October, 8, 1801, 1 find in an interview with Mr. Boody, evidently prepared or revised by himsolf, tbeiio words: The party does not share Mr. Chapin'B feeling that be stands need of vindication. We think that no fair minded citizen believes that there waj anything discreditable in Mr Chopin's connection with tho water matter." If thin is not an indorsement of the water steal and Mr. Cliapin's connection with it, pray what is it? By the nay, orory newspaper in Brooklyn corrected the falBO statement from tho rink and tlsowhore concerning a privato matter of initio, excepting the Eaole.

on indisputable evidence which I furnished. Ia not this an oversinht at Eagle office? W. Zikoleil Ebooklyn, October 31, 1891. We are much obliged to Mr. Ziegler for his compliment to the fairness of the Eaole as a newspaper, and unaffectedly think it is deserved.

Touching Mr. Ziegler's quotation from the interview in the Eaole with Mr. Boody on October 8, we have this to say The inference we draw from Mr. Boody's words, quoted by Mr. Ziegler, is that Mayor Cliapin's desire for a vindication on the water business by renomiuatiou was one to which Mr.

Boody was opposed, not one to which ho was favorable. The inference wo further draw is that while Mr. Boody, with the Eaole, did not believo that Mayor Chapin meant to do wrong, he (Mr. Boody) at the same time recognized, with tho Eaole, the error of method and tho impolicy of procedure which went with Mr. Cliapin's fairness of intention and goodness of motive iu the water project endeavor, upon which the Democratic judiciary, on the public spirited application of Mr.

Ziegler as a citizen, put a veto. The full statement by Mr. Boody iu tho Eaole of October 3, on the subject which Mr. Ziegler quotes only in part, is as follows "And about the renominatwn of Mr. Chapiu?" tho reporter asked.

"As to that," Sir. Boody said, "tho party does not sliaro Mr. Cliapin's fesling that he stands in need of vindication. We think that no fair minded citizen bolievos there was anything discreditable in Mayor Cliapin's connection with the wator matlor and that the worst that oa.ii bo said about it is that he erred in Judgment. Snch an error as that doeim't require vindication by a third nomination.

There are other issues and reasons connected with tho state canvass why some other nomination should bo mado. The Brooklyn Democraoy is rich in material for tho mayoralty aud I hare no doubt that the convention will ohoose a candidate acceptable to all interests and who will bo triumphantly elected." This sustains, we think, the Eagle's construction of Mr. Boody's language and not Mr. Ziegler's construction of that language. Wo do not know to what matter Mr.

Zieglar refers in the concluding paragraph of his letter. Tho Eaole printed everything It has received from Mr. Ziegler except a correspondence between him aud another citizen, tho subject matter of which tho Eaole anticipated nnd disposed of favorably to Mr. Ziegler's view of it, when we published Flainen B. Candler's lottnr bearing on it.

There was no "oversight" but only a "sight" that was a little quicker evon than that of Mr. Ziegler because of our publication of his vindication as a businessman by Mr. Candler in advance of lii.s own vindication of himself. For Alderman at I.arjrc. Among the excellent candidates on the Democratic ticket for aldermen at largo is Mr.

Robert F. MacKellar. Alderman Mnc Kellnr has for many years been a prominent, useful and enterprising citizen of South Brooklyn. By iudustry, integrity and unfailing courtesy he has earned the respect of his neighbors and constituents. Iu tho common council he lias labored persistently aud intelligently for tho welfare of tho neighborhood in which he resides.

While devoting much of his attention to that locality, Alderman MacKellar lias not been indifferent to hia duties in other directions, and his cool judgment and conservative advico have often exercised a wholesome influence on his associates in tho board. Among Alderman claims to the support of patriotio voters is his record of courageous service in the Union army. Ho jjallantly during the civil war and irnvcrv aud devo UNDEK PARK THEATER.

Tho Russian Advance on Pamir Stopped for tho Present Social Reform in Berlin Murder in a Monastery A New Life of Parnell Soon to be Issued. London, October 31.

The gieat French BrennuB ironclad, ono of the largest war vessels in the world, will leave for the Mediterranean as soon as fitted out with her armament. This fact is regarded as significant in view of the unsatisfactory condition of the Darda nelles question. Tiie Brennus wiil carry three guns, each weighing 58 tons, beside ten guns of lesser size. Two of tho larger guns will bo in a revolving turret in the fore and ono in the aft part of the vessel. Six othor guns will be in a port on the gun deck and four in closed turrets on the spar deck over the port.

Tho armor is from twelve to forty centimeters thick. Instructions havo been sent to tho Russian forces in central Asia to cease for the present any advance into territory claimed by tho Chinese on the borders of the Pamir. Bussia, however, does not admit tho claims either of China or Afghan istan to the disputed territory, and will urge the appointment of a commission to determine the boundaries. The kaiser, it is stated, does not propose to Btop short of stamping out the class of men who live on tho earnings of unfortunate women. He has become as earnestly impressed with the necessity of moral reform as he was, about a year ago, with the need of labor reform, and he proposes to carry out his ideas iu the samo way, by legislation.

A series of sta'tliug suggestions on the moral reform question are, therefore, expected at the coining of the reichstag, dealing with the social aril, drunkenness, and various other features civilization. Ail this is said to be the result of reading, eome time ago, the story of the Heiuze murder trial. The kaiser was deeply impressed and horrified in a hijih degree by tile frigl tful picture it disclosed of moral depravity irr Berlin, and his majesty then aud thero resolved to lraprovo tho situation. An account of a murder committed in a monastery by bnrglars cornea from Montolimar, France. The dead body of Father IldofonmiF, the murderer's victim, was found in his cell in the Cistercian monastery of Aiqnebelle, near Monte limar.

The burglars had sncceedsd iu their purpose of robbery, having rlfUd a safe of its contents and escaped with tho plunder. The Austrian government is said to have come into possession, through treachery in tho llussian war office, of an important set of ulans for fortresses on tho western frontier of Russia. The English garrison at Kaushut, a small district adjoining Cashmere ou the one hand, and the Pamir on tho other, has beon reinforced in view of the demonstrations of Russia in that direction. Au Oporto train waa derailed near Lisbon today and many poisons were injured. Henry Harrison, member of Parliament for Tipperary, writes from Mrs.

Parnoll's Brighton address that an authoritative biography of Mr. Parnell will bo published as soon as possible. The action of the Cork authorities preserved comparative quiet during tho night. With the exception of occasional scuffles and now and then a lively duel with blackthorns, tho night presented no.exceptional scene. Tho Parnollites claim, however, that there will be a grand dem.

onstration of their strength to morrow, and that if tho McCarthyitea interfora thoy will meet with a terrible thrashing. Tho McCarthyitos also intend to havo a meeting, caliod chiefly by clergymen, and they will be better prepared than ever to deal with aggressive Parnellites. Mr. O'Brien has fully recovered from the shock which he sustained whon he learned of the intended murder. The Paris correspondent of tho Times telegraphs that he learns that M.

Bompard, the Freuch resident at Madagascar, has resigned his position because tho foreign minister of that country had declined to grant an exequatur which the German consul had asked for, through M. Bompard, the ministor, declaring that he would only grant it direct to tho consul himself. The Teaohers' college in Berlin has been closed, owing to au epidemic of influenza among tho persons who attended tho institution. A letter from Starodub, received in Odessa, as sortB that during tho recent anti Semitic riot in that town five young unmarried Jewesses wero so barbarously assaulted and maltreated that they have all since diod. According to this letter twenty Jews in all were kilUd during tho Staro duh disturbances.

Itioting similar to that at Starodub is reported from Balta, in Russian Poland, and its suppression was a matter of difficulty. A dispatch from Dunkirk states that a Swedish journalist named Undgren has arrived at that port from Gothenburg, Sweden, having mado the voyage in an open boat. Tho dimensions of the boat, as eivtn, are: Length, 10 feet; width, 6 feet. Undgrcn's only means of propulsion was rowing. Ho intends to go also to London and thenco to return to Gothenburg.

Rev. Dr. Clutterbuoli, government inspector of workhouse schools, now held at Bath on two separate charges of having obtained money on false representations, was to day called from his coll to be confronted by another complainant. The third charge made against Cluttorbuck is that of the master of tho Rochester workhouse, who ac 0U80S the prisoner with having secured 12,000 from him wherewith to purcha some of the alleged high paying interest government bonds. CHILDREN'S IUUIITS AND WRONGS.

Caroline H. I.oKow on rho Kiuilcrfirar ten To (he Editor or Che Brooklyn On Wednesday, November 4. at Pratt institute, Mrs. Kate Douglass Wiggin, tho famous author of those tiro deservedly popular books, "Tho Story of Patsy' and "Tho Birds' Christmas Carol," begins a series of talks, throe in number, on tho plays, gifts and occupations of the kindergarten. Mrs.

Wissin has been closoly and most successfully identified with this lino of reformatory work ou the Pacific coast. She has lately takon up her residence in Now York and has been invited to lecture in this city by the Brooklyn kindergarton association organized last June. It is hoped that the lectures will attract many parents and toaohora aud that they will be the means of creating an interest in this work which will lead to tho taking of fiCtive measures toward the establishment of kindergartens iu tho "It's just a regular picnic to beon tho boat whore's there's one of those new fangled schools yon hear so much about lately," said a stalwart policeman a few days ago to tho writer. "Xho young ones behave themselves on the street aud the old iiks don't work tho growier to keep me busy hushing them up and hauling them in. If there were many more of thoso kindergardtms, as you call them, a govd many policomon would bo out of business." Significant testimony! But it is not only tho poor ami the children of the poor who are to bo benefited by this now education the preventive so much bettor than cure.

Hosts of parents aro constantly discovering how meager and unsatisfactory has been their own education, how completely it has failed to giro them any idea of tho ways and moans whereby thoy may in their turn teach their own littlo ones. At the same time there is no duty of which intelligent and conscientious parents are more conscious or more anxious adequately Vi discharge. "Something to do" is tho universal cry of children, the desire arising from the natural activity of the healthy child. They need help in iindiug this something, and nothing is more wearing upon tho nerves of a busy or tired mothor than this incessant call upon her attention. It is here that the piays, gifts and occupations of the kindergarten prove so holpful to the mother aB well a beneficial to tho child, for under all these forms of recreation lie the fundamental principles of all genuine education.

It will bo the object of tho proposod lectures to explain this profound yet Bimple philosophy, baBed wholly upon a knowlodgo of tho child and itB needs. Tho kindergarten provides for the physical and moral aB well as for the mental nature, and lays solid foundations for the educational work of all tho later years. It 1b as much the duty of parents to understand this system as to provide suitable food aud clothing for the bodies of their children. the great Froebel, "it 1b dear to me what I have longed for from a boy.

LeRow. 780 Lafayette avenue, October 31, 1801. IMPROVED BRIDGE TRAVEL. A Corrsspondcut Descrlbew the Condi. Honk Exitlnur in Cincinnati.

To the. Ednor of the Broolelvn Eaole: Standing on the banks of tho Ohio river at this place about tho hour of evening whon crowds of persons are crossing the New lork and Brooklyn bridge on their way homo from their employments, and observing with eroat interest and pleasure the eas6 and quiet with whioh the large travel from Cincinnati to Covington was being taken to their homos over tho great suspension bridge Bimllar to the aud Brooklyn one, the conviction iras forced on mo that if the di. rectors of the New York and Brooklyn bridge really dosirod to relieve the congestion of travel at evening without taking millions of dollarB of tho Brooklyn taxpayers' money, thoy might oorae here and find a way. It is simple only tbe trolley. Over tho bridge hero goea a continual stream of loaded can, noiseless and swift.

Why should not ono of the superfluous roadways of our bridge be takon and two tracks laid down (which could oaiily bo done), and the bridge already has its own eleotria plant, which oould eaBily bo mado moro powerful, a liue of cars could be run during tho ush hours only, which would double tho carrying capacity of the bridge without costing more than the price of the cars, the rails and tho two hours' extra power. May tho coming election produce for my native city some rulers who will try to govern ns without taking our all to do it with. Cikoissati, October 27, 1891. E. J.

E. TliIK TO ST8AL A 11AM0XP PI, A crook named James Keano of 60 North Second streot tried to steal a diamond pin from G. T. Mullen of 17 Strong place whilo tho latter was waiting for a bridge train Wednesday. He was arrested, and on reaching Brooklyn broke away from Officer Kane, and running down tho outside exit stairs jumped to the roadway, where Officer Lunny nabbod him.

Eoano was hold in $1,000 "How old is your grandfather?" "Ono hundred andthreo years." "You surprise me. I had no idoa he waa a centaur." Harper's Baxar. dona of the Campaign. With to day the campaign closes. It has attracted attention in reverse order through its area.

The contests throughout the United States have beon regarded only in a general way. The contest within each state has been extremely interesting to the citizens of such member of the Union. Tho contest within counties or cities has been regarded with intense interest by tho people taking part in it. The readers of tho Eaole havo heard occasionally through its columns something about Ohio, something about Pennsylvania, something about Iowa and something about Massachusetts, which are points of debatable consideration aud conceded importance in this canvass; but they have heard more about Flower and Fttssett and about Sheebau aud Vrooman than they have about all the other state contests put together, and they have heard more about Meyer and Boody and Chapiu and Bristow aud Kenna and Webb than they have about the gubernatorial struggle within this commonwealth. In this is tho vindication of Democratic principles.

The government which comes nearest to the people is the one about which they are most stirred. Who shall govern us from Albany is important to Brooklynites, but who shall represent the collective honor and interest of our people within tho city hall is of more importance to them. They have shown that this is so. They havo proved their capacity for citizenship by showing it. They are wise in such a demonstration.

The mayor, the common council and other local officers have to do with the being and tho business of the people directly. Of the thousand points at which life touches government or government iifo, 9:0 arc local points. Citizens have not forgotten the interdependence of the local and tho state contests, or of tho. state contest now and of the great national contest next year. They have, however, dono tho thing in front of them.

They have attended to thu duties to their hand. They havo felt that in supporting Boody they were supporting Flower aud in supporting Meyer thej were helping Fassett, and iu helping Flower they were advancing tariff reform tn hile burying tho force bill, and in helping Fassett they were extolling protection and reviving the force bill. In this the homely common sense of the people has been evident. The Republican endeavor to separate state from nationa issues in this canvass has been disingenuous and consequently unsuccessful. Of the twenty three plauks in their Rochester platform, eighteen referred to national issues and the Republicans have run away from thoso issues on the stump.

While running away from them in New York, the Republicans havo protruded national issues in Ohio, Iowa and, os far as thoy could escape from embezzlement, grand larceny aud forgery, in Pennsylvania. Whatever bo the result on Tuesday next, this has been true all along and will be true to tho end The Democrats havo ignored no issue, given disproportionate attention to none, but have faced the music of their own record and of their own declaration nil along the line. Now, everybody wants to know how things will be likely to go. The Eaole is not in tho prophecy business. Always, aud especially on tho verge of an election, it is wise to cut the future iu very thin slices.

Both sides are equally confident in words. Boasting is a form of campaigning common to each. This, however, is to be 6aid Ohio, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts have been Republican strongholds. If the Democrats carry any of them on the eve of a presidential struggle, they will do more than they ever did before, and that will be a clear gain. If they carry Oiiio, Iowa and Massachusetts next Tuesday, those states or any one of them which may be carried will be fair fighting ground for them in the presidential struggle of next year.

But if they carry Pennsylvania we candidly do not think that the Keystone state will be a quotable Democratic presidential quantity in 1892. Wo should regard Democratic victory in Pennsylvania this year as wo regarded it last j'car, as a revulsion against dishonesty in state affairs there under Republicanism. We should, however, even then still expect that commonwealth to go Republican on a presidential vote. For nine years on state issues New York has been Democratic. If it should go Republican on state issues this year, the odds would bo in favor of its going Republican on national issues next year.

If it should go Democratio this year, it will go so both on state and national issues, because that party bus wisuly aud equally emphasized both sets of issues iu this campaign. So a Democratic victory here now should mean a Democratic victory hero next year. Without predicting anything, the Eagle will be surprised if New York, Iowa and Pennsylvania, the latter ou home issues, do not go Democratic, it Massachusetts is not shown to be a very close state and if the Republicans do not recover Ohio under McKinley. We know Campbell aud his friends are very confident and have made a most gallant struggle, and we hope they will succeed. But we think it most safe aud true, in view of the interest felt in the general result, and in view of the responsibility imposed by the respect entertained for the sincerity and carefulness of tho Eagle's statements, to say that tho probabilities favor Republicanism in Ohio, which has never gone Democratic in a year preceding the presidency, or in a presidential year since the Republican party has had au existence.

On the local campaign tho lines of battle have been closely drawn and the battle itself has been hotly waged. With the Democrats on tho main candidates has been the advantage in capacity and in character. When we say that David A. Boody's character is better that Henry A. Meyer's wo mean that the moral qualities of his nature havo been tested and seasoned under the experience of large political activity, of participation in public reforms and political reforms, of labors for better government in affairs and for higher principles in partisanship aud that, next to Miss Ruth Cleveland, as a romantic and palpable force in American politics, no inhabitant of the United States has shown less and done lesB in public affairs than Henry A.

Mover, until the Republican party hero proposed him for an office of much detail, many complications, uuquestbned importance, large responsibilities and diversified and delicate duties. Mr. Meyer's character, so far as virtues of character aro concerned, is doubtless just as good as Mr. Boody's. But to character as well as to abilities public experience is valuable.

The fact of such public experience in the case of Mr. Boody, with the absenco of it iu tho case of Mr. Meyer, makes the character of tho former a stronger guarantee for high public uses than the character of the latter, until educational and testing experience be supplied, cau bu said to be. The result of the local canvass will turn, in the Eagle's judgment, on tho operation of one or two factors which cannot bo accurately forecast. There are some Democrats who will not vote for Mr.

Boody, because they do not like the one man power in Democracy and do not like the gang. There aro some Republicans who will not vote for Mr. Meyer, because they do not bolieTe he is qualified by experience and knowledge for tho office. There are other Democrats who may not vote for Mr. Boody, becauso they feel attracted to Mr.

Meyer by his vocation and by tho nationality of his extraction, although he is a native of Brooklyn aud German only by descent. These are manifestly voters of German sympathies and affiliations. There are still other Germans who will vote against Mr. Meyer because they do not regard him as a typical representative of their people. Tho unexampled registration makes all these factors in themselves uncertain, more uncertain than ever.

The situation is one to demand Democratic vigilance, industry and unity to the hist and to justify Republican activity and hope. A natural result should be the offsetting of considerations adverse to tho chances for Boody by considerations adverse to the chances for Meyer, and the success of Boody by a moloty of tho Democratio majority which on strict party lines exists within this city. Wo shall be surprised if such does not prove to be tho result.

Era. PRINTED IN THE BEST MANBEB AT THK BROOKLYN DAILY F.AOLF. JOB PRINTINU ESTABLISHMENT. 3 34 AMD 30 IrULTOX BTttEUifc A Crimoti Ilnrvent. Three dreadful murders iu New York city are reported this morning.

James Walden was pistoled to death in upper Seventh avenue by his dissipated wife. Minnie Ranhau ser was fatally stabbed in her mother's tenement apartments on West Sixty seventh street by William Miller, a boarder. Down in Double alley, an offshoot of Cherry street, John Whittle was slaughtered iu a drunken scufflo by John Finnegan. These crimes, coming together, sustain the ancient superstition that calamities frequently coincide. They form collectively a picture of tho varied and somber under strata of life in the groat metropolis and tell to the world how little progress, right iu the midst of us, our boasted civilization bus made.

The killing of Walden is most sensational. Ahul of 20, ho frequented race tracks, working for a bgokmaker. At one of tho courses ho encountered Mrs. Kittie Delmar. Tho woman, young, comely, vivacious and vicious, was going swiftly down grade.

She had forsaken home and husband in Philadelphia for the company of gamblers, touts and thieves. Smitten with her charms, young Walden had been, while drunk, inveigled by the creature into marriage. When the debauch euded he found himself allied to a fiend. She soon wearied of him, took up with others, drank hard and smoked opium. Then she met him on the street, renewed an earlier wrangle aud shot him dead.

The woman is described as "pretty." That decides, in advance, the measure of her punishment. No woman so described will b.e convicted while lawyers can be hired to blubber over her wrongs or susceptible jurors obtained to survey her charms. Mb. Kitty Walden, of course, will follow the footsteps of Mrs. Ella Nelson.

Minnie Ranbauser's end was pitiable. Greater cruelty did not take off Nancy hykos. A fair haired, blue eyed, slight aud happy girl, she lived with mothor, sister and brothers in a tenement. With them lodged William Miller, a piano maker, who had known Minnie all her life. While other members of tho household were absent at work Miller stealthily returned to tho rooms, seized the girl, cut her throat, robbed the house and fled.

When tho child's sister returned in the evening a horriblo spectacle met her view. Jack the Ripper" could not have done the work more thoroughly. Electricity will probably be Miller's portion if caught. He deserves, if man ever did, to be struck by lightning. Whittle's career terminated in a plain, every day, old fashioned stabbing.

Bad whisky, worse temper and an utter disregard of the value of human lifo were at the bottom of it. Such occurrences do not disturb Double alley. That region rather rejoices in them. But what a commentary it all furnishes on tho theory that capital punishment operates as a deterrent to crime. The three victims of Friday would have been slain in the presence or absence of any conceivable method which could be adopted to iusure for murderers their just deserts.

ff'aajrli a Bnllajrta Politic. The reports which reach us of the continuation of election riots in Cork demonstrate the fact that faugh a ballugh politics has succeeded that system favored and fostered by Parnell and fathered by Gladstone a system that brought within the range of observation a bright prospect of that relief for which Ireland has so long been seeking. The publication of Gladstone's new measnro of home rule tor the green isle and tho publication of details of the disgraceful encounters in Cork, in which several persons were more or less seriously injured, wore simultaneous. The great and venerable liberal leader hns just cause for the apathy which comes from depression but he has, in his long life of benevolent usefulness, given evidence of the fact that small obstacles in the path of his philanthropic progress aro never noticed by him and rarely prove obstructive. It is, therefore, to bo expected that tho dissensions of McCarthy ites and Parnollites, while thoy may prove a source of sorrow to the distinguished man, will not turn him aside from the path he has marked out for the liberal jouruey from coercion to toleration.

At present he has not only to contend with the staid Salisbury, the acute Balfour, the deep rooted prejudices and loudly proclaimed preferences of the conservatives and their unionist allies of other parties, but is compelled to face serious divisions among his camp followers in the nationalist wing. Whilo this condition is naturally inclined toward tho decreasing of efforts on tho part of a leader, there is in Gladstone the element which raises him abovo tho common contemplation of it and which is likely in tho event of liberal success at tho coming general eloction to force the prize of a great victory on partisans who appear to have lost sight of it in waging a shillalah war on each other. So vindictive have become tho quarrels that the phantom of murder has appeared on the horizon of dispute. It is claimed now that a plot to assassinate William O'Brien has been discovered, unci having in mind the fact that "Ho who tights and runs away May lire to light another day," Mr. O'Brien hurriedly disappeared from tho field of battle.

Michael Davitt has been compelled to take up tho work ot campaigning which tho absent orator left unfinished, Tho conditions havo readied a necessity for the calling out of British troops to suppress the rioting. This act will, however, inflame rather than assuage the feelings which now, by reason of physical expression, sorelv wound in a mental way those friends of home rule iu Ireland who are spared from wouuds of another kind, so plentiful in Cork. Tho lUelbouUl Pnvtoral. Tho practical character of tho Christianity enjoyed by the Methodist communion is signally manifested in tho pastoral sent to tho Methodist churches throughout the world by the ecumenical conference recently held in Washington, urging the vital importance of the subject of social reform. Undisturbed by the theological dissensions and schismatic tendencies which havo invadud other Protestant denominations the followers of Wesley have had leisure to consider the duty of the church in respect to he evils from which modern society suffers.

None of the great vices of the world is omitted from the list prepared and submitted by the conference. Gambling, speculation, intemperance, the extravagant use of money, the prostitution of sacred things in behalf political objects and the vanities and weaknesses that follow in the train of wealth aro all specified as matters which should arouso the brethren to greater efforts for the redemption and regeneration of mankind. It appears to have beon the belief of the conforence that all tho preaching and praying which Christians can do will not ameliorate these social conditions. Unless the work i undertakon in a practical spirit and carried on by practical methods the evils complained of will continue to flourish. It i3 an encouraging and hopeful fact that this truth is so fully realized by tho numerically largest and probably mo3t influential branch of Protestant Christendom.

AYhile tho pseudo reformer is deceiving himself with the hallucination that men are to be weaned from the error of their ways by civil ordinances and legislative enactments, tho common sense Wesloyan appeals for tho application of the only instrumentalities by which great reformations are effected. In another respect this pastoral testifies to the clear insight and sound judgment of its authors. It demands that every system of national education shall be entirely free from any kind of ecclesiastical interference or dictation. Tho importance of this principle was recognized by the founders of the federal government and every doparture from it has, by its consequences, vindicated their wisdom. Tho reasons which justify tho permanent sop.

aration of ohuroh and state are equally applicable to evory system of education organized and supported by tho state, Tho sagacity of these Methodist fathers is a wholesome revelation, from which the most beneficial and far reaching results may beynnticipatad. Yo Democrats To Under the auspices of tho Young men's Democratic club a mass meeting will be held this evening in the Criterion theater, Fulton street, near Grand avenue. To believers in Democratic doctrine the occasion ought to be one of pleasure aud profitable instruction. The organization which calls (ho meeting iias done good work in this and earlier campaigns. While it is independent of the regular machines, its members aro Democrats on principle and loyal in support of reputable Democratic candidates.

Iu their election of speakers and of a presiding officer they have exhibited tact, discrimination and sagacity. Mr. Frederick W. llinrichs, who is asked to tako the chair, ranks high ns ftn eloquent and convincing stump orator. Ex Secretary of the Treasury, Charles S.

Fairchild is a thoughtful student of affairs and a competent expounder of enlightened public policies. Mr. David A. Boody, tho Democratic nominee for mayor, will doubtless intensify the favorable impression he has made on the rostrum since he accepted the nomination of his party. Tho Rev.

Charles II. Hall, D. rector of Holy Trinity P. E. church, a scholarly and brilliant believer in Democracy, can bo depended cm for a capital speech.

Mr. Ridgway and Judgo Kenna are also on tho list of speakers. The arrangements are very attractive, and, coupled with the celebrity and talent of the orators, ought to produce a rousiug and effective demonstration in the central part of the city. Ill Quiet tho Pacific. It i3 not surprising that, according to report, the Chiliau administration has been constrained to tako a stiff position in the Baltimore matter by a desire to influence home politics.

The unwarranted nnd peremptory course of Italy concerning tho New Orleans affair was attributed, probably not without reason, to the desire of tho Marquis Rudini to strengthen his ministry with tho people. Even in our own beloved republic politicians of one party have been known to accuso men of the opposite party in power of shaping their foreign policy to influence on election. Moreover, these grave outside questions are used, or alleged to be used, for factional purposes within a party. Wo were told that the Behring sen controversy with Great Britain was largely maneuvering for position by the President aud his secretary of state in relation to the convention of 1892. It is not necessary to believe all these stories, or any of them, in order to see the partisan use sometimes made of foreign complications.

Now if the artful Chiliun who has proved himself so apt a pupil of Mr. Blaine in international law thought ho could make himself strong with his patriotic and impulsive constituents by taking high ground, we may look for a rapid abatement of excitement. The Italian situation really looked worse. It seemed as if Rudini was determined to provoko a conflict, regardless of the rules governing the intercourse of independent governments. He was backed by some very powerful battleships, equal to any afloat.

On the other hand tho Unitod States fleet of unarmored cruisers was not even so far advanced as it now is. But Secretary Blaine was not frightened. He calmly took substantially the same ground that Chili now takes, coufideut in the result, because he and the American people knew it was the right ground. The Rudini tempest in tho Louisiana teapot subsided long ago. The political purpose having beon served in Italy, everybody was willing to acquiesce in tho undoubted law of the case.

Tho same thing is altogether likely to happen in South America. Tho Junta, although it had won a brilliant succoss, could not afford to offend its exacting aud sensitive people. The Chilians had suddenly become conspicuous for military achievements. Whipping the proverbial "weight in wild cats" was a wholly inadequate measure of their self estimated prowess. The Junta saw that, while taking an unassailable diplomatic stand at the beginning of a controversy, it could tickle the populace by taking it promptly and positively, not to say abruptly, in the assurance th.it presently real friendliness with the Unitod States would easily secure a peaceful settle mon t.

Tho Washington correspondent of the Eagle yesterday telegraphed that the general impression which followed the meeting of the cabinet pointed to the probable transfer of the negotiation to that city, where it was expected to be satisfactorily conducted by thu state department and tho Chilian embassy. This is a wise conclusion and it is also a good piece of luck for Mr. Blaine. The whole matter will be taken out of tho hands of Minister Egan, and so Mr. Blaine will suppress at once, and more easily got rid of entirely, an incompetont and annoying diplomatic agent.

Nobody Will iio Counted Out. Anxious Mr. Sehieren would "go forth to meet the shadowy future without fear aud with manly heart," but for one thing. "Our only fear," he says, "is that having elected Mr. Meyer he maybe counted out." If that is tho only trouble we can easily reassuro him and guarantee him a tranquil mind.

Nobody will be counted out. Those who permit themselvos to bo disturbed by tremors such as those do not know how elections are carried on, or they forget in the alarm caused by "cock aud bull stories" of fraud. For example, we hear that this candidate is "being traded off" for that, and that one party is "passing out ballots" for a certain nominee of the other party. If these panic stricken persons would stop to think a moment they would remember that under tho present law this is impracticable. The time was when tickets were "bunched" at antagonistic boxes, so that poo ple unwittingly voted against thoir own side.

This sort of swindling is out of the question now. Tho voter gets his ballots at the polls. He eon vote any ono he please3, and nobody need know how he votes. So a3 to counting. If Mr.

Sehieren will "pull himself together" and recover self control he will see that it is very foolish for him to pay the slightest attention to the unprincipled persons who have been trying to impose upon him. Nobody can be counted out unless all the election officers conspire to that end. Ho nervously refers to possible "Democratic fraud." No Democrats can commit fraud without tho connivance and assistance of the Republican officers. Does he distrust the agents of his own party Apparently not, for he mentions only Democrats. Now let Mr.

Sehieren stop right there and consider tho following facts and the cloud of dread will presently bo lifted from his mind: By law the election officers thoso who register the names of voters, who inspect the casting of ballots and who canvass and count tho votes are equally divided between tho parties. In practice the lists are submitted to tho board of eloctions by committees of the parties, half of the whole number by each, tho several names having been selected by the members from tho respective wards. Tho lists so prepared are confirmed by the board of election. Now bofore a false return can be made from a polling place the Republican canvassers must consent to and take part in the fraudulent return. Does Mr.

Sehieren believe that Republicans would do such a thing? Perish the thought. We have his own word for it that it is only tho wicked Democrats whom he suspects of anything of the kind. Let him possess his soul in patience. The, wicked a.
