A DEMOCRATIC DISPLAY-
Democracy Feasts at Cienwoocl
Francis Cleveland Clubs
And Curious T
Republicans in the Make-up.
From Fi iJav's I -ilv
The. democrats h-Ul "tlu-ir rully at
GLenwood lust nilit and a larsje crowd
alt uded from this city A short march
was m id.- on Main tn-t't lu'fo c the arri
val of the 7:13 train. 'flic R. & M.
band was uot jrc4'nt in the city, and
consequently its services were greatly
missed, not a sound of inusi- lieing
hearil. After the procession inarched to
the depot, th-boys' drum corps, of the
G. A. R.. fuini-h 1 the crowd with two
or three of their s. lections. The Fianci.
Clewland Club, a clu! f youn ladies,
which has recently lei n organized in
the city, proved t be the main attrac
tion, and apparently won the admiration
of all. Their uniforms consisted of
white dresses, a liand uvi sash and a
whice plug hat trimmed with bandana
Irtnds. There were about thirty in num
ber, and as they marched on the depot
platform, two abreast, they pres-nted a
very striking appearance. The organi
, crs of the club d.-s -rv-i grj it credit for
their "o 1 t iste. as exhibited in' various
ways.
Col Sherman, of the Journal, act:d as
captain for the company, but a mistake
which h.i m i le by giving a false on'
caused the young 1 ulies uincli cnbari:;?
ment for a tim. lb' give his command
for th'-m to march from the depot to
where two cars .(which he supposed
jiwaited them) were standing, and was
about to t ike po- ssion of the train
when be learned that it would
soon nail out in Hi direction of Schuy
ler. Several smoth'ved snickers were
distinctly heard in the vicinity when C.
W learned that he h id m i le quite a no
ticeable blunder which could not have
b-ea much apnreri ited by about thirty
voun 1 lie. The train did not arrive
until about half un hour later than the
mini tim , necessit iting a tiresome de
Jay. Several republicans Accompanied
tin d-mocratic crowd, and they report
that the rally wis a grand success. It is
thought by mny, although n: accurate
estimate could easdyle made of two -s
large crowds, that there was about the
same number who attended the rally last
utirht as xr present during the republi
can bio oat hoit time ago, It js re-

I I Ml! I II' w un
nortec! that the Glen wood people enter
tained the whole crowd with refreshments
at the opera house. The tables extended
around the room, the guests were seated on
he out Mile of the tables, while the
waiters performed their duty on the in
side. The whole crowd was accommo
dated, they say, and still some of them
say the crowd was about one third larg
er. The Glenwood people would be
washing dishes yet, and still dishing up
refreshments, if that were th; case.
There were three Francis Cleveland
clubs present at the rally, and it is re
ported that they all were very much
admired. In the inarch it is said that as
good order was not kept, and also that
tho illuminations last night could not be
compared with those during the republi
can rally.
The following young ladie3 composed
the Francis Cleveland Club and attended
the rally last night:
Louise Engel, Mary Weckbach, Tressie
Hempel, Annie Wcckbach, Kate Henipel,
Lee Riddle, Bertha "Wise, Carrie Guth

THE ENCAMPMENT OPENED-
Commander-in-Chief Rhea Makes
His Annual Report.
Colmubus, O., Sept. 12. The national
encampment of the Grand Army of the
Republic began yesterday morning, the
reception, parade and camp fire of the
day previous being preliminary to the
actual work of the encampment. The
Grand Army of Wust Virginia, naval
veterans, Sh-ridan's division, brigade
and regimental associations met in the
various parts of the city, but the meet
ings were strictly private, none but
members being admitted.
In the course of his annual address
Commander-in-Chief Rhea of the G. A.
R. reviewed the growth of the order,
lie said that the reports on June 80,
1SS8, showed there were 303,245 com
rades borne on the rolls, to w hich might
be safely added a sufficient number on
transfer cards to swell the grand total to
400,000. After speaking some time ot
the future growth of the order and de
nouncing the cse of the Grand Army
badge for political effect, he endorsed
the legislation proposed by the last en
c 'mpment which failed to pass in con
gress, and expressed his desire for fur
ther action in the same line. During
the year 4,433 comrades had died, being
an increase of 1,027 over the previous
year. He continued : "During the past
year reports show that there were ex
pended in charity the sum of $215,975.13.
This, of course, does not include many
thousands of dollars which have been
given by members privately in aid of
less fortunate comrades." He spoke
touchingly of the death of General Sher
idan. He called special attention to the
Women's relief corps, Sons of Veterans
and navy survivors' division, and of the
regard future generations will have for
them and their work. The other na
tional officers also submitted their re
ports at the morning session.
What is It?
The question is often asked, and the
query propounded, that in 1SS1, the re
publicans who left the party aui voted
for Cleveland were named and have pro
perly been called ever since, mugwumps;
and now what name will be applied to
the thousands of democrats that are join
ing in the glorious work of electing Har
rison and Morton. Our answer is they
are republicans: any other name we will
leave to the democratic party to apply to
the boys who are leaving the sinking
craft of democracy.

KUSnSEI-'S BOYAL EDITION.
A South American Crime.
' Buenos Avers, Sept. 14, A sensa
tional murder trial is progress at La Plata
in w hich Padre Pedro Castro Rodriquez
is charged with murdering his wife and
daughter. Rodriquez in early life became
a priest, but in 1870 forsook the church
and four years later married SenoritaRue-
tina Padin, daughter of a colonel in the
Arge ntine army. He soon suspected his
wife of unfaithfulness, and deserting her,
re-entered the church, In May last his
wife and daughter, lledroua Maria Castro,
joined him against his wishes at the
ecclesiastical residence. Determining to
ricl himself of them he gaye them poison
but as this elid not act quickly enough,
lie crushed their skulls with a hammer.
He then put them both in a Urge coffin,
and having said mass over their bodies,
had them hurried. Blood stains around
the house and the sudden absence of the
two ladies aroused the suspicions of a
chore boy, who reported the matter to
the police, with the result that Rodriquez
was arrested. He at first denied all
knowledge of the whereabouts of his wife
and child, but finally broke down and
confessed. Rodriquez is forty four years
old, finely educated, and has always
stood high in the favor of the church
authorities.
Xearly ever small town has what
may be termed a wetlding prognostication
Association. This peculiar institution
makes a sp2cialty of pairing off the mar
riageable people of the plice, s-lecting
their wedding outfits, groomsmen and
bridesmaids, providing their future quar
ters, an l attending to the general details
of the ceremony without consulting the
parties interested. The fact that they
miss their gwess nine times out of ten
does not seem to impair their usefullness
in the slightest, they keep on guessing
for the pure love of the thing, and cack"
le and shake their wise heads when they
do happen to hit the mark in a way that
is calculated to make sensible people
weary of life.
From Friday's Daily.
Rapid progress i3 now being made

clover."
