All the Alton pqpers except the Telegraph had large posses of excited men hunting through the woods and elsewhere for Joseph Eilcr, the young man who killed Wm. Godfrey Wednesday night, when the fact wqs as stated In the Telegraph that Eilcr never tried to get away and was arrested at his home early Thursday morning and taken to the county jail at St. Charles.

The Cosmos-Monitor of that place has the following additional informr.tion,—Eilcr's side of the affray: "Young Eilcr, a son of Obadiah Eiler, was born and reared near West Alton. He is much worried and excited over the affair and is ready to talk to any one. He claims that he used the knife in self-defense. He also claims that other parties in the saloon pushed Godfrey on him and says he did not quarrel with Godfrey and wasn't angry at him. He says the crowd was interested ccrd game going on in when a quarrel then the fight.

The leaders In the Democratic convention said the money question was not an issue and therefore said nothing about it in the platform'. After i hat act, the same leaders laud the Hravcry of Judge Parker for putting the issue in the platform. The affair looks very much like a Punch and Judy show, without without real to catch the public and fool it once more. Nearly every one had forgotten about the existence of Chicago University.

Prof. Starr also condemns that polite society which set a bann upon the Japanese at the fair for their habit of both sexes, in a nude state bathing together. Now if the Professor will only put in practice his teaching, and go in bathing, in a nude state, at some of the fashionable seaside resorts, he will create a genuine sensation and will add to the fame of the University as a den of cranks and faddists.

FHANCIH BllANUtfWllCDE, Clerk. Inspector, when he gave a Senator $1,000 to vote against a bill to cut the fees of Speed's office. Mr. Folk in various addresies, has stated that the only thing that prevented the indictment of Cook was the fact that the crime had been outlawed before it was discovered. Cook has admitted that he stood by and advised Speed to buy the vote of a Senator in order that his fees might hot be cut.

The Missouri Democratic convention has placed a supposedly honest and fearless prosecutor on the ticket with boodlers. It has mixed honesty with rascality in order to save its ticket. The Democratic convention's sympathy was almost wholly with the joodlers, and against Folk. They not to nominate him. This action -of the convention is in perfect accord with the Supreme Court of that state in setting bood- lers free, and especially in standing as a safeguard between the notorious bobdlcr and corrupted of public men, Edward Butler, and the penitentiary.
