December 18.—The talk of Wall yesterday was the reported disappear- of young Maurice Wormser, after con ble losses in stock speculation. The man is the son of Simon Wormser, the i of one of the biggest brokerage firms in street. Young Wormser has been asso- ted with his father in business, but has s had the reputation of being at heart a ach more daring speculator than he allowed elders to suspect. It seems that during the great Reading speculation, when that pock jumped almost without stopping from ®@ 08, the scion of the house secretly in- duyed his speculative tendencies. He knew by father was the biggest bull in Wall street o Reading and that be confidently predicted advance to 50. He believed his father was right and so without saying anything to the oder man he went to the other brokers on the greet, told them how sure his information vu, and said he wanted to make afew thou- god dollars without the ‘‘governor’s’’ knowl- oge. The brokers grabbed at a pointer“ like this, which came from headquarters, took the orders young Wormser cared to give them, and of course bought at the same time sgood many hundred shares on their own scount. The street story is that when young Vormser went into this deal he was worth personally $200,000. With Reading at 53 his profits, had they been realized, would have made him halfa millionaire. But the youth- ul speculator thought Reading was going 7 higher than 63 and held „ The price began to go down, and he stil: held on, be- cause be thought it was only a temporary re- action from a big advance. Then came the slump, and Reading went down like a sied on a coasting bill. The day of general demoraliza- tion young Wormser came into the Readin end for 4 moment and excitedly asked wha the stock was selling at. Somebody yelied out Bal, and that it was going lower. e young man wiped the perspiration from nis fore- ead, turned away, and has not been seen since either in Wall street or bis usual resorts uptown. Naturally, the brokers who snatched atthe pointin Reading he gavethem make most persistent and enthusiastic inquiries mer bis whereaboute now. A great many doubtless SOLD OUT THEIR OWN HOLDINGS when Reading was up at a very handsome rent, butacting under Wormser’s instruc- dom they held on to his stock while it sailed ty Gown 15 points on the break. When it town to 82 they sold it out, and have been ing around for their customer ever since, “tious for him to make his accounts Sight. The matter was kept quiet for some ume, but young Wormser seemed to have Yanished into thin air. Inquiries and re- vests for settlement were directed to his er’s office. The old gentieman is reported to have said that his son was of age tnd that he did not feel called upon to take care of any of his accounts. He was very angry with the young fellow and in his first bitterness asserted he would have nothing further to do with him. The brokers were Raggered rather. They began to see the pros- pects of securing their money meiting rapidly tway, They knew that the young man had no money and if his father woul wo his debts where 1 they be?

The children are especially interested inthe arrangements and at the greater number of the clubs the en- tertainments provided are planned for their benefit and enjoyment. The only event of im- portance during the past week was the St. Louis Club reception on Wednesday evening. The handsome house was beautifully decorated for the occasion and it was thronged with a fashionable company. Preceding the annual election which takes place to-day it aroused a keen interest among the members and scored a decided success for the Committee of Ar- rangements. The result of the election to da has already been foreshadowed in these ool- umns. An effort will be made at once to in- crease the limit of membership. At present the list is complete, and there are numerous applications from desirable people, who would infuse life and prosperity and materially strengthen the daily attendance. NOTES. The Harmonie Club will give an amateur theatricai performance this evening at the club-house, Eighteenth and Olive streets. A hop will follow, drawing out a large attend- ance of the members and their families. On New Year’s eve the annual Harmonie ball will be given, an occasion of importancein He- brew circles. The Liederkrans concert on Thursday even- ing was a great success. An excellent pro- ramme was presented and there was a large and fashionable attendancc. There are several applications for member- ship on the Mercantile bulletin board. A down-town resort is indispensable during business hours and the Mercantile is invari- ably chosen for association meetings and ban- quets. The second entertainment and hop of the Missouri Bicycle Club took place last evening at the club-house’on Cardinal avenue. The quality of the entertainment and the attend- ance refiected much credit upon the directors of the club, who have thoroughly established its popularity by these enjoyable gatherings. The University Club will give another recep- tion early in the new year. The directors pro- ose to — up a series ot entertainments, ectures and hops during the winter season. A New China Store. Invitations have been issued to the public in general to inspect the new stock of china, glass and queensware just opened in the store, 1115 Olive street, by O. E. Martin.

Archbishop Corrigan Explains the Nature of the Meeting in Philadelphia. New Ton, December 18.—Archbishop Oor- rigan s absence from the city this week has occasioned considerable comment. It was stated on what was assumed to be good au- thority that he had gone to Baltimore for the purpose of conferring with Oardinal Gibbons, Archbishop Eider of Oincinnati, Archbishop Williams of Boston, Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia, and other prominent dignitaries of the Ohurch in to the land and labor question, and also the case ot Dr. McGiyan. These reports, ac- cording te the Archbishop himself, were en- tirely erroneous. There been no confer- ence for such purpose; in fact, he has not even been to Baltimore. He went to Philadel- lee on Wednesday and returned home os hursday night. A Tribune reporter and a multitade of other visitors call on him yesterday to asocer- tain what action ad been taken by the alleged conference in Baltimore. The Archbishop said: ‘‘Ihave not deen to Baiti- more at all, and there has been no conference for any suc story abou slump is told on the street and bbies touching W. utch lea man-about-town, who was fora nber of years the business manager of W.

Tilden in the Supreme Court—Efforts of the Heirs ef Samuel J. Tilden to Break the Tilden By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcu. Nuw Tonk, December 18.—The complaint in the suit brought by George H. Tilden in the Supreme — tor the legal construction ot certain of the will of his uncle, Samuel J. Tilden, with a view to the dis- position of the bulk of the estate, which is estimated in the document at $15,000,000, was served yesterday by the plaintiff’s attorneys, Chris Vanderpoel, Green 4 Cumming, on Car- ter & Ledyard, the attorneys for the principal defendants, the executors and trustees under the will. The defendants have twenty days in which to file their answer, but may, if they desire it, obtain an extension of twenty days, after which the case will be put on the calendar of the Supreme Court to be called up in its order at General Term. The thirty-third, thirty-fourth and thirty-fifth clauses of the will are called into question. The first pro- vides for the establishment of a library and free reading-room at New Lebanon; the second for a library and free reading-room at Yonkers, and the last, which is really the residuary clause of the will, creates the Tilden Trust and provides for the establishment of a dibrary and free reading-room at the testator’s Gramercy Park mansion in this city. The Court is asked to construe these clauses and say whether they are valid, and if not, to com- pel the executors to account to the piaintiff and other heirs-at-law for the property of the estate remaining after the special trusts cre- ated by the will have been provided for. THE COMPLAINT. The full title of the case is: Geo. H. Tilden against Andrew H. Green, John Bigelow and George Smith as executors and trustees under the last will and testament of Samuel J.

Burke, Rosa Clark, John Lynch, Elizabeth Gettins, Dennis O’ Hare and Daniel Herr.’’ The complaint sets forth that S. J. Tilden died without issue, agg neither father nor mother, but leaving a sister, the defendant, B. Pelton, and that the plaintiff and de- fendante, Samue! J. Tilden, Jr., Henrietta Swan, Caroline B. Whitelesey, Ruby S. Tilden, and Susan G. Tilden, his nephews and neices, only heirs-at-law and next of kin, are as such entitled to all the estate not legally disposed of by his last will and testament. The defend - ants, Laura B. Hazard, Adelaide Buchanan, Anna J. Gould, Mario Stauffer, Henrietta Jones, John Cahill, Mary Sinnott, Henry Gil- bert, Edward Riley, Catherine Burke, Rosa Clarke, John Lynch, Elizabeth Byrnes, Eliza- beth Gettins, Dennis O’Hare and Daniel Herr are legatees in the will. THE CLAUSES ATTACHED. The complaint also sets forth that accordin to the plaintiff’s information the estate o Samuel J. Tilden at the time of his death amounted to $15,000,000, consisting of real and ersonal estate; that the will was probated be- ore the Surrogate of Chester County on Octo- ber 20 last,and that the executors and trustees Andrew H. Green John Bigolow and George W.8mith—have duly qualified and entered into the discharge of their duties. The whole willis recited in the complaint, but the vite | clauses are singled out for attack and the Oourt asked to pronounce ec r on their validity: **83.

They shall vest the title in a corporation, a char- ter shail be granted on their application to the Legislature or a cerporation can be formed under the general laws. My said executors and trustees are hereby authorized to require, if needful, proper conveyances to be executed by the heirs of the said Henry A. Tilden, by Mary B.

They shail also convey to the corperation any interest which I may have in the said premises. My executors and trustees are authorized to expend for the creation and equipment, and to in- vest an & ermanent fund, to maintain the said library and reading-room, the sum of $6,000 and a further sum, which I may in writing instruct my said executors and trustees to apply to those objects.

My said executors and trustees are requested to applyrto the Legisiature for a special charter to enable them to carry out this provision. THE TILDEN TRUST. **85.

Quite a flutter of excitement exists among the gas companies at preseat owing to the great Yavor with which the Rochester Lamp is being received in this city. Notwithstanding the greatly reduced price of gas many people are abandoning the use ot gasand adopting the Rochester Lamp for all purposes. The reasons are obvious, the gasis poorand ex- pensive. The Rochester lamp burns only about 2 cents worth ot oil in an evening and gives a sixty-five candile-pover light, so al- most everybody iscomplainng of the poor quality of gas and it seem: to be getting worse.

One of the Quickest Local Mirder Trials on Record. | Another murderer has bien convicted. When the arguments in the Jeary Pagels case were concluded at2:15 p. m. yesterday, the jury retired and the Court waited nearly halt an hour for them to return their verdict. A Deputy Sheriff was dispatched to learn if they had agreed upon a verdict, and finding that they had not, the Court had Pagels removed to the jail.

It was supposed thet the functions and activities of gov- ernment were sufficiently limited to those | avowed objects by organic laws forbidding legislation for an establishment of relig- ion or for the creation of privileged classes or orders of nobility. And so for a long time the mass of untural persons, the people, were the sole care of the Government. Their voice con- trolled it, and every individual citizen felt that in the struggles of life he bad only to measure his personal strength against that of other indi citizens, each as dependent as himself upon his own single power sand influence for success. Then all industrial and business success was a matter of. individual enterprise and good fortune, and the means of living and the incre- ment of wealth were distributed more equally than ever before or since in any civilized society. The difference between the richest and poorest was but a matter of a few thousand dollars. But for some years past the people have been growing conscious that a new power has sprung up between them and their Government, which not only contests with them the control of the Legislative, Executive and Judicial departments, but contests with these the control of the coun- try, its business, ite wealth. This new power takes the form of corporations, fictitious persons created by law and wielding the wealth of multitudes of nat- ural persons, yet free from the full lia- bility and responsibility which restrain natural persons. Its growth has been marked by the institution of mighty monopolies, the usurpation of power over men and business which no Government would dare to exercise, and the perpetra- tion of robberies that have made the chiefs of these corporations severally richer and more powerful that some sov- ereign States. How this new power is rapidly revolu- tionizing our social organization and status may be seen in its absorp- tion, one after another, of all the great sources of wealth and ail the materiaand means of industry. It may be seen in the story of the Standard Oil monopoly, the Cotton Seed Oil mo- nopoly, the coal monopolies, which have demonstrated that no interest is safe from the grasp and control of these im- personal giants, created by the law, but left by the law free to crush individuals as insects beneath their feet. It is said a milfers’ combination is form- ing on the Standard Oil Trust model to control both the wheat market and the bread market. Such is the drift towards the exercise of this newly realized power that more new corporations have been chartered in the last four than in the pre- ceeding ten years, and the question is, Where will this thing end? Surely it is time to look about for a proper limit to the multiplication of these artificial persons and to the powers they may exercise without restraint. They are necessary to the performance of some public services and the accomplishment of some public ends which are beyond the power of individuals or mere partner- ships. But where their wholesome utility becomes doubtful and their dangerous wer for mischief begins, extreme cau- on should be used in enfranchising them. Some corner of the business field should be reserved for the encouragement of in- dividual enterprise and the support of individual independence. Without these, corporate wealth may accumulate as men decay and fall into serfdom, but how long will our Republic stand on a social foun- dation so different from that which it was built to rest upon?

But ‘‘so hallow’d and so gracious is the time,’’ that it widens the vision of benevolence and in- clines millions to unwonted deeds of charity. In caring for friends, loved ones and pitiable objects the good people of St. Lous must not forget the Firemen’s Ball on the 27th inst., nor the Firemen’s Relief and Pension Fund. for whose benefit it was instituted. Once raised, that fund will be a monument to their public spirit, to their sense of justice and to their gratitude to the men who must daily risk life and limb in protecting life and property in St. Louis. It will keep the wolf from the door of many a fireman’s widow and many a child whose father has meta horrible death at the post of duty. It will help many a poor fellow doomed to a fate worse than death in being disabled for life and left a helpless burden upon a helpless wife and children. In all their warm-hearted plans for Christmas, let our people keep the Firemen’s Fund in the warmest corner of their hearts. c A motion to take up the Morrison bill to-day is simply a motion to try and agree upon some tariff revision, some reduction of war taxes and Treasury surplus. A vote against consideration is obviously a vote against attempting any revision or reduction at this session. The plea for such sa vote is that there is not time for judicious considera- tion at this short session; that if the subject is postponed it will be taken up by the Fiftieth Congress, fresher from the people, and that then the Pro- tectionists themselves, composed of the Republicans and the Randall Democrats, will undertake to bring about the re- quired reduction ona protection basis. This is the same old plea on which the needed legislation has been staved o ff so long and the whole purpose and effect of itisto indefinitely postpone and defeat any change at all. —ñ 0 Ee Tun local baliot-box is not as dumb as it used to be.

The official leaders of the Lib- religion, are shaking in their shoes for an ex- tremety curious reason, namely, for fear that Chamberiain may steal their thunder, in the matter of the Irish action of the Government. They see clearly that tt its in his power to strike a tremendous biow for his own ond, and that of his old supporters, if he has Dat the honesty co do so.

If he should state these things there, while still opposing home rule, and throw in his lot with the Irish ten- ants, the official Liberals, vuigariy speaking, would be ina hole.

ERNST Discusses Government Worx and the Situa- tion at Galveston. Maj. Ernst, who was for several years in charge of the Mississippi Kiyer Improvement with headquarters at St. Louis, but was re- cently transferred to Galveston, was in the city this morning. He breakfasted at the Southern and took the 9 o’clock train for Washington. He has gone on to confer with the Secretary of War with relation to the work he proposes for the benefit of Galveston harbor. e has charge of some three hundred mies of the Guif coast and several works have been projected in that territory. No plan for obtaining deep water at Galveston has been adopted by the War Department,’’ he said, ‘‘and Edo not know what will be done. There is now only a small appropriation of $800,000 for the work. I shall es recommend jetties and the work will necessarily be very exten- sive. Galveston’s situation isthe best of all the Gulf cities for the avoidance of damage from the waves and storms. The great dam- age that has been done those towns has been done by waves that rise over the land, go into the interior and then re- ceding sweep off the houses into the sea. Gal- veston being on an island, the water goes over it and into the ay! so it does not come back over the island. The houses there of a better class than most Southern Texas towns.

Should you, however, be wanting something in that line, we would call your at- tention to the fact that you can save money by calling on us, as we have concluded to offer to connoisseurs a small surplus of eight and nine years old, hand-made Sour Mash Ken- tucky Whisky—older than you can buy of most dealers—and will sell same for the holli- days in quantities to suit consumers (not less than one gallon) at prices fully 50 per cent lower than you have been in the habit of pay- ing for similar goods.

No one with even a grain of common sense thought of lugging brains to the theater this week. They would die of inanition or starva- tion. They could find neither food nor stim- ulants anywhere—only chestnut hulls and nubbin cobs. Your sensible person who wanted to get the dest out of all that was Offered carried good eyes, strong opera- glasses and a healthy animal nature to the theater. All ot them found employment of a more or less entertaining kind. There were a few empty heads on which weak jokes made a good deal of noise in regis. tering like a brick striking a tin can. The tin-can act was mostly to be seen at Pope’s Wwheie Keep It Dark“ rattled its rem miscenoes of bones and tamborines and flirted its vapidity and confusion of absurdity to empty seats. The title should have been tried by the author on the piece. It was positively painful to see men and women with gome native cleverness making idiots of them- seives at the beck of the playwright for the sake of afew dollars. It was an attempt to yivify dry-rot. Art must have tried to poison herself every time she looked into the People’s for an open- ing.

From Town Topics. I hear, on the very best authority, that Mme. Patti's terms with Mr. Abbey are $3,000 a con- cert, plus one-half of all moneys received | aboved $4,000 a performance. Mr. Abbey, of course, pays all expenses, these including the salaries of the troupe, agents, etc., the trans- portatio of the prima donna and suite—a ‘special car, for the rental of which $800 a month is asked, etc., etc. A friend of mine who is versed in matters of this kind esti- mates Mr. Abbey’s outlay for each concert at $1,800, exclusive of Mme. Patti’s honorarium. Thus it would appear that Mr. Abbey must lose on every entertainment of which the re- ceipts do not foot up $6,000, for out of this amount Mme. Patti gets , 000. Thus far the manager is ahead, though not as much as Mme. Patti. French Stage Wit. The house bull of the Imperial Theater of La Roche-sur-Yon announced for the evening performance La Tour de Nesle,’’ a five-act melodrama, and La Sour de Jocrisse,’’ a one-act farce. The drama had been disposed of, but the low comedian was missing and could not be found. Whatwasto be done? A luminous idea finally entered the manager’s mind. The orchestra played an overture,then another, then a third, then a polka, and final- ly a quadrille. At last, when the audience had grown quite obstreperous the stage manager appeared. He addressed three conventional bows to the spectators and saia: „Laps AND GENTLEMEN—You are anxious a I know, to listen to La Sour de Jocrisse. The piece has just been acted; but through an unaccountable oversight on the part of the stage hands, they forgot to raise the curtain. Nevada in Clover. Lacy Hooper in New York WORLD.

Rose Coghlan is said to be an ideal of the comedienne’s art as Rosalind, Lady Teazie, Pauline and Peg Woflington, while her cos- tumes where taste and lavish cost can be used are said to be models. She will be seen in her repertoire at the Grand. Fred Eustis, the damaged husband of Ida Smith Bell, is the musical leader of the Evan- geline Company, but is taking a vacation of several weeks at present. He is the composer of ‘‘Mizpah,’’ a new American opera to be produced in Philadelphia. All the expenses attendent upon the death of Signor Operti, at Leadville last week, were paid by the Clio Company. Manager Browne helds a receipt for $250 expended. Everything possible was done before and after the death of the well-known musician. Mr. J. H. Copleston, the dramatic critic and business manager of Wilson Barrett, has reached as far West as 7 ee. He says that Mr. Barrett wiil probably produce **Olito,’’ in which Miss Eastlake has a power- ful part, for his Western tour. Miss Gertrude Griswold, Bret Harte’s niece, will make her American debut in John A. Me Call’s company at the Chicago Opera- house, in about a fortnight. She will appear as Maritana in Don Cesar. Miss Griswold received a first prize at the Paris Conservatory. The Little Tycoon Company, which was booked at the Grand this week, is said to be playing somewhere in Indiana, and just skipped by St. Louis with- out regard to the contract. Manager Spalding willing suit against the management if he find worth while. A @iccessful movement has been made to esta@pish a local orchestra of first-class ability in © ago. Afundof $8,000 as a guarantee has been raised, largely by the efforts of lead- ing ladies in the local society circles, and six concerts have been planned for this season. Mr. Ernst Cauterhausen of Milwaukee has been chosen musical director of the new or- ganization. A young Philadelphian has gone daft over the charms of Miss Eastlake, the leading lady of Wilson Barrett's company. The callow youth has sent the actress about abushel of gusbing episties, in all of which he begs for an terview. Among his appeals is one ‘‘for the ineffable joy of walking afew blocks with you on Chestnut street, and another for one kiss from those ripe lips.“ Miss Eastlake is becoming weary.

Whittaker is due to leave for the East this evening, but as he has been in Clarksville the past two days, although there is no riding this time of year, he may not get away at once. His intention is to talk with manufacturers in Boston for several weeks and then return to St. Louis. He boasts about going right up te Chicago then and keeping in trim by gymrastic training till spring. It is not unlikely that his fine riding in Indiana last fali will secure him a good offer from some Eastern house to ride their wheel.

It is ar fact that the girls of New York, which I mean women between the ages of N and 25, are much more easily stirred ‘in a play e. The curtain rose upon a dismal dungeon scene; upon a miserable pallet lay Miss Neva- da as the moribund Marguerite, ber graceful forin scantily covered with tatters, and her beautiin! face wearing that supernatural com- plexion which suggests a confusion of death’s remorseless ravage and intemperate addiction to the powder puff. A profound hush sat upon the auditorium, and not even the faintest breath of admiration interrupted the talented diva as she murmured the staccato and pian- issimo recitative which begins the scene. Then all at onee she reached one white round arm under the pil- low and dfew forth an American flag—the emblem of the country she loved; wreathing its beauteous folds about her shapely body she sprang to the front of the stage and sung in loud, clear, inspiring tones that superb aria, ne Star Spangled Banner. Scarcely had the last notes issued from her birdlike throat when salvos of 6 rent the per- fumed atmosphere of the spacious audi- torilum. So grand, so spontancous an ovation we had never ‘before witnessed. Some of the more cautious auditors were surprised not to find the words of the ariain the 2 but all were delighted, nay, transported, with the brilliancy of the song. Miss Nevada gmil- ingly responded to an encore, and then, with the flag wrapped round her she tottered back to the pallet, stretched herself out, and lay there, apparently lifeless. Slowly the curtain fell upon this beauteous Western Marguerite, betraved, ragged, friendiess, but patriotic, even in mimic death. Prof. Thomas tells that ‘‘The Star Spangled Bauner was not written in ‘‘Faust;’’ that if sung at all in the opera, it is an interpolation, and ike adds, ‘‘a very bad one, too.’’ It occurs to us that it is in poor taste for the manager of a National American Opera Company to volunteer this insultto the flag we all love.

A CHILD'S SKIN Ears and Scalp Covered with Eczematous Scabs and Sores Cured by Cuticura. M* little son, aged 8 years, has been afflicted with Eczema of the scalp, and at times a great portion of the body, ever since he was 2 years old. It began in his ears and extended to his scalp, which became covered with scabs and sores, and from which asticky fluid poured out, causin intense itching and distress and leaving his hair matted and lifeless. Under- neath these scabs the skin was raw, like a piece of beefsteak. 8 the hair came out and was destroyed, until but a small patch was left at the back of the head.

The lock ers of literature and the scavengers of hu- man frailty tall back abashed at the sound of her name. Shelies in her grave, the secrets ot her life locked up in her dead breast, but her immortal genius, xe her immortal soul, yet lives, the only key we have, or are likely to have, to the secrets of her life. For these and other reasons readers may be somewhat disappointed to find that the name is the best part of the article under discussion, inasmuch as little is said on the subject dis- cussed that has not been said before. We have already learnt from her published cor- respondence, her books and her husband all that George Eliot desired knowA of her inner life; the matter has been discussed in all its bearings by many mouths; all that anyone had to say upon the subject has been said, all theories aired and turned inside out, and itis notat this late day, more than seven years after her death, that fresh light is to be thrown upon the inner life of the woman ofthe century. The article in question is, therefore, little more than a resume—a gath- ering up—of all that has been said, and as such itis not without interest. A better and far more thougLtful paper is the one immediately pre- ceding, **Dantel Deronda.’’ This, however, is less a criticism on the novel than Its author. Reading between the lines we eln era variety of subtie side lights reflect- ing upon the many diverse shades which went to form the character of the authoress, as for instance in the following: One feels in reading, re-reading and study- the book, that, in respect to mere large- ness of intellect, itis unmatched mene | he works of the most distinguished novelists of the country. Scott, Dickens and Thackeray may excel George Eliot in their special departments of fiction, but ply the inteliectual test which of the four has mastered most thor- oughly the “oe ~~ and advanced thought of the age, the judgment of all cultivated persons would be given unreservedly in favor of the author of Daniel Deronda.’’ In so- briety, breadth and massiveness of under- ing; in familiar uaintance with the latest demonstrated truths of physical, his- torical, economit and metaphysical science, and im the ca i to use these truths pac rials for a philosophy of nature, and woman is the acknowl- erbert neer. Leaving out of view 4 powers which make the great t, and fasten! our attention on the tanding alone, itis obvious that George *-“Bliot might hold in one corner of her broad, brain all that portion of Scott’s intellect which dealt with the philosophy of history as distin- guished from its pictu ueness; in another corner all that part of the intellect of Dickens which in dealing with political economy was rone to substitute benevolent sentiments for néexorabie laws; and in still another corner, all that portion of the intellect of Thackefay which pen ‘trated beneath the social shams he pitilessiy satirized to the principles which make society possible. * * * * This gen- eral largeness of mind, this tranguil grasp of the outlying problems of uman lite and human destiny distinguishes her from all the other novelists of the age; for she not only looks at things and into things, but she looks through things to the laws of life the illustrate and by which they are verned. She dispels that pleasant illusion fondied d most writers of fiction that the individual is dominant in human affairs, and gets what he esires if he has the energy to struggle for it. © pitiless laws of existence which are inde- — ent ot human wish or will, and which h all who oppose their action she ives with asad certainty of insight.

Asa lawver his talents mounted to genius. In jury trials his main object was to influence the wills of the twelve to peruse that valuable periodical. It is a tale of lifein lower London with characters well adapted to that choice locality. Hya- cinth Robinson, the hero, is the offspring of an Eaglish nobleman and a French courtesan. Years before when Hyacinth was an infant his mother kills his father and has dis- appeared into the graceful retirement of a penitentiary for life. The iad skims through various adventures incidental to unprotected infancy. Not dntil he is a mah, and we half way through —— stay! We are discussing a novel of Mr. James’. In any other book we should have perused at least halfthe work by this time, but Mr. James’ novels are solid things. At all events Hyacinth is a man, and we are as far through the book as we want to go, when he and we are introduced to the Princess Casamassima. This lady turns out to be none other than the Christina Light of ‘‘Roderick Hud- son,’’ an earlier novel. Of course Hyacinth, the nameless, falls in love with the Princess. The tale ends with the suicide of the hero and a sigh ofrelief on the part ofthe reader who has waded thus far. The characters ae handled in a vigorous style and the tale asa whole is skilfully guarded-through the maze ot analysis and flow of verbiage with which this best of Mr. James’ stories is encircled as with a cloud. > Persons who remember anything at all about American periodical literature a few years ago will recall the budding of the old ‘‘Scrib- ner’s Magazine,’’ which eventually blossomed into the present ‘‘Oentury.’’ Those recalling the early promise of that attractive journal will welcome its reappearance after the lapse of years. ‘‘Scribner’s Magazine“ for 1886 is full of promise for the future (in more senses than one). The opening number, just to hand, while not perhaps quite as at- tractive as the Century, shows every sign of becoming sointime. But comparisons are odious. Revenonsa nos moutons. The initial article on the Siege and Commune of Paris, by Mr. Washburne, forms a very inter- esting piece of contemporary history, while the illustrations pertaining thereto, Gambetta, Garnier Pages, Emile Ollivier, Jules Simon, Ferry and Favre, are well drawn and appar- ently lifelike portraits. The same cannot be said of the illustrations other than portraits. All through the number the engraving is weak and quite below the standard usually aimed at by first-class periodicals. In fiction, the opening chapters of ‘‘Seth’s Brother’s Wife, by anew writer, Harold Frederic, promises well, while The Story of a New York House,“ by H. O. Bunner, complete, is quite up to that author’s usual standard of excellence. The best short tale in the number is ‘‘A Violin Obligato,’’ by Margaret Crosby, and ‘‘In Mexico,’’ by another new writer. Thomas A. Janvier’’ is the title of a pain- ful story in which the agony is piled up a little higher than art would counsel or expediency advise. Papers onthe ‘‘Babylonish Seals,’’ *-Socialism’’ and a due allowance of poetic effusion complete the number. In the interest- ing programme laid out forthe year we notice & promise of The Unpublished Letters of Thackeray,’’ and some probably interesting articles on Early New York and New En- giand Society’’ as it ‘‘appears to a brilliant girl, who was prominent in it seventy-five years ago. The brilliant girl must be some- thing more than agirl now, but that is beside the subject. J. S. ot Dale and Robert Lewis Stevenson, author of ‘‘Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde,’’ are both under contracts for fiction later in the season. Notes. The January Century will contain among other interesting matter the first half of George W. Cable’s ‘‘Oarancro,’’ a story of the Louisiana Acadians. Temble, the artist, recently visited Louisiana for the express pur- pose of obtaining illustrations for the work. hat useful magazine for ents, ‘‘Bavy- Dempsey made to STAND BEFORE SULLIVAN for six rounds was true.

Cardiff isa very good pugi- list and in over fifty fights has never been de- feated. He met Charley Mitchell last spring and the two fought eight réunds. e battle was declared a draw, but it was the opinion that Cardiff had the best of the match. The only thing he lacks is nerve. He has not the heart to do goed work with a man who has a reputation. He was brought over to this country some Pp ago by Parson Davies, who matched him alnst several ood men in Chicago whom Cardiff bested. From Minneapolis we will make a tour of Da- kota and Manitoba, and then I will visit Mil- waukee where Sullivan is matehed to fight Pat Killen. I consider Killen Cardiff's superior as a fighter, and that the exhibition with him will be even better than that between Cardiff and Suliivan. Afterthe Milwaukee fight Sullivan and party will give exhibitions through the Middie States and Eastern States, and about February 1 he will depart for England.’’ Sullivan is AFTER SMITH and will give him every oppestaniy to fight, Sheedy says, and will not back out because his friends can not outnumber Smith’s. He never stood behind aman yet who lost a fight, or one that was decided a draw, and heis willing to risk the chances of being bulldozed out of a fight by Smith or his friends. Sullivan was never in better condition in his life, Sheedy writes. and will make short work of any one who comes before him. Sheedy says that Sullivan’s presence at the Alameda base-bali grounds at Alameda, Cal., where he was paid $1,500 to umpire a game, drew an immense crowd. Wher Sullivan made his appearance he was quickly surrounded by 5,000 struggling men, women and children, and for a time the ball-tossers were forgotten. It took the united efforts of the police to clear the field. After an hour’s delay the game was started, Sullivan is in fine condition and has not broken his resolution not to drink. BOWLING. The Proposed Northern League—Gossip in the Alleys. George Garban, the well-known bowler, is engaged in acommendable endeavor to bring about the formation of a Northern League of bowling men. His dream isa big organization with a championship banner and a horde of brawny strikers ‘whose skill will enabie them to meet the German of the South and subdue him on his own alleys asit were. With this end in view George has called a meeting of the various bowling clubs in the northern and western sections of the city, and expects on Monday to take the initial step which willleadtothe formation of his longed-for league. The members ofthe Southern Asso- ciation are in nowise inclined to work against the movement, but look on their Northern friends with a 1 akin to indulgence rather than fear. The feeling between the two sections is yore | high as the season ad- vances, and a match between their represent- ative clubs would be productive of much interest. Such a match, it is intimated, is by no means improbable. MR. BOYER RETIRES. Mr. Gus Boyer of the st. Louis Club, who last year filled the position of Secretary for the Associatioo, has sold out his business in this city and will next week withdraw from the club. He will leave thefirst ofthe year for Madison, Wis., where he intends going into business. GOOD SCORES. The following individual scores were made this week at the Grand: Ten-pins, N = N 267, 271; H.

Mr. Baidwin claims that the handicap tournamént at 16-inch balk-line. to be given by Schaefer, cannot decide the wa sy pte for, according to rule, the winner would be required to play all comers even up. Carroms. — eh did not go up to Chicago to see the match. Odds of 100 to 70 were offered at Roche’s last night on Schaefer. The only question which puzzles Billy Cat- ton at present is how the balls will roll when achalk line, cutting off fourteen long inches, is drawn around the table. A pos match was played at the Grand this week between Cox and Benson, two weil- known players. for $25 a side, best 11 out of 21. Benson won by a score of II to 9. The exodus of billiard men to Chicago has had a mournful effect upon St. Louis. They will all be back next week, however, and good care will be taken that they remain for most of the winter. « _ — POOR NIMICK, Pittsburg’s President Again at the Mercy of Designing Villains. PITTSBURG, Pa., December 18.— President Nimick and the Directors of the Pittsburg Base Ball Club, make some rather sensational dis- closures concernining the refusal of the American Association, at the recent meeting in New York, to return $400 to the team ac- cording to agreement. After Barkley had been fined $500 and sus- eye for one year at the Louisville meeting e brought a suit ainst the Association be- fore Judge Stowe. r. Byrne and a New York attorney named Wagner came to this city to ——— the Association, Byrne having been delegated the power to do so. Before the case had progressed very far the Association representatives grew shaky. They feared de- feat in the courts and a compromise was ro- posed. The Pittsburg Directors offered to pay a fine of $100 and give the Balti- more Club, Scott, provided Barkley’s suspen- sion was removed. This was agreed to, but in order to uphold the dignity of the Association, Byrne suggested thatthe Pittsburgs pay $500 with the positive agreement that tke ciub should be given credit for $400 on the books. The officials of the Pittsburgs e they are ready to make an affidavit that the positive „ oy iven above was entered into. r. Nimick also receive a te am from Byrne saying that he had obtained the consent and indorsement of all the clubs to the agree- ment. The directors now say that unless the money is returned they will at once begin an action against the Association. Foot Ball. The Emerald Cub and the Shamrocks are matched to play a game cf foot ball to-mor- row at 10:30 o’clock at the Union Park. Two elevensof the Thisties will meet to- morrow afternoon at 2:30 o’clock at Sports- man’s Park. Sporting Gossip. Ross and the Jap wrestle again in Cleveland Monday next for an alleged stake of $500 a side. William Beach, the world’s champion sculler, has arrived safely at his Australian home. The Union Park management are figuring upon the erection of a toboggan slide. The only objection found thus far is the changeful weather peculiar to St. Louis. Itis announced that Warren and Danforth met last night in New York and arranged a fight toa finish, $1,000 a side and purse, the men to fight within 100 miles of New York. Cleveland boasts of having forty-five horses owned there with records all the way from 2:12% to 2:30. Mattie Hunter, the pacer, heads the list with 2:12%, and Olingstone, the Little Demon, follows with 2:14. If the consent of the authorities can be se- cuted, it is probable that a glove contest between Burke and Glover will be Drought off ut Chicago under the Parson’s management during the holiday season. Glover is tak- ing good care of himself, having that in view. The Louisville Jockey Club has arranged a EYES, Granulated Lids, Weak- ness of the Optic Nerve, etc., cured in 4 to 6 weeks.

PEE TES *“CARBOLIC SMOKE-BALL” appeals to your common sense, and investigators must acknowledge it the most sensible remedy they have seen from its great simplicity, speedy action and unfailing results. Though taken by inhalation, itis like no inhaler ever used. The medi- cine arises as a smoke, lighter than the air you breathe, penetrating and thoroughly treating every air passage of the Head, Throat, Bronchial Tubes and Lungs. Dissolving on the diseased parts, it cuts loose the mucous, however thick, eating up the poison of the disease. Do the Doctors Gondemn It? No; not those who have conscientiously examined the remedy or tested its efficacy on themselves or others. Many physicians in and about St. Louis ARE TO-DAY USING SMOKE-BALLS IN THEIR FAMILIES.
