The Trust Railway Bill Up for Final Passage. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY. Mo., May 18.—Hav- ing laid its lines to: its own satisfaction, the lobby called up the street railway mon- opiy bill in the House this afternoon. For three days the members who can be per- suaded against their will have been hurry- passage of the bili. The iast of them arrived at noon to-day, and the lobby pro- cecded to business without delay. Wight of Randolph called up the bill for third reading and final passage. Pope of Cole offered an amendment adding a new section, providing that any person, corpora- tion or association of persons accepting the act shall not be allowed to charge more then 4 cents for adult passengers who are furnished “seats, 2 cents where no seats are provided, and 2 cents for children under 10 years of age; and providing for a .com- plete system of transfers. ; “The people of St. Louis and the State should receive some advantage in return for the enormously valuabie privileges granted the street railroads by this act,” said Mr. Pope. Sickles of Putnam made the point of order that the amendment was not germain to the bill, claiming the fixing of rates of fare rested with the municipal assemblies of cities. Speaker Ward sustained Sickles’ point of order. Pope offered another amendment provlid- ns that the corporations accepting the act ~ all tiot be allowed to charge more than 5 cents for adults, and 3 cents for ehiidren, and providing for a complete system of transfers, Sickles made the same point of order and was again sustained. Mr. Williams of Scott moved to indefi- nitely postpone but was ruled down by a viva voce vote. Mr. Blair of De Kalb of- fered an amendment,by striking out the consolidation provision. Mr. Blair said the House had committed itself to opposition to trusts and that the consilidation provision in this bill would permit the organization of a most gigantic ist. leary made the frank admission that this amendment would render the bill val- ueless. He said ansas City had cons@lida- tion and had found it a good thing. He denied that a street railway organization as a trust. Ww Mr. Woolfolk of Lincoln said the House had been ittrying to legislate for the people and to destroy the\trusts and combinations of wealth. Against such legislation there had been a never tiring lobby. “To-day they are here asking the passage of this bill: he seid. “a bill introduced by a countryman. Is it possible that this lobby has at heart the interests of the peo- i ple? Is it possible that a representative of this lobby came upon this fleor before the dinner recess and oftered $0 for a vote for this bill? This man, the emissary of the cowardly cur who is behind this bill, made that offer to Mr. eJnkins, the Representa- tive from aJsper County, and he will verify mv statements. Let us rise and be men and vote to administer a rebuke to this lobby.” This sensational statement caused a rip- ple excitement. I ell of Webster County denounced the lobby y and asked Mr>.eJnkins whether he been offerd $0 for Ma vet. LOBBY VS.

The Huist en Bosch, or House of the Woods, the palace in which the World’s VDeace Conference meets, is 250 years old and is a mile from The Hague. It is in the middle of the Bosch, or forest park, which begins the fashiouable end of the town and extends for three or four miles. The park fe full of lofty oaks, which have been allowed to Grow to their natural size and in their natural Way, contrary to the usual Dutch custom, which ia to trim trees to symmetrical shape. The House of the Woods is one of the private palaces of Queen Wilhelmina. It contains a great hall, called the Oranje Zaal, or Orange hall. Here the con- ference is held. Of all spots in Europe in which the Czar’s Peace Congress could be beld, The Hague is the most in consonance with the purpose of the conference. The very air anywhere in Holland, and particu- larly in The Hague, breathes the spirit of con- tentment and goed will. Nothing burries there. In the palaces by the side of canal-streets the big wigs of the civilized world can sit and ‘‘resoloot,”’ Grinking the while deeply of Schiedam schnapps. There isn’t a prettier city than The Hague for its size in all Europe, nor one more beautifully laid out. It has broad, finely shaded avenues, which flank quiet-moving canals; its houses, from paiaces to the homes of the well-to-do, while net imposing, have the Dutch air. of substance and stability. A city now, with some 150,000 inha- itants, it was a village when some of the most famous treaties of history were signed there in bygone days. When Queen Wilhelmina is in The Hague e6he usually makes her home in the House of the Woods, but during the sessions of the congress she will live in a paldce near Utrecht. Out at Ryswick is the castle of Ryswick, where, in 1797, the. treaty was signed which ended what the American colonists called King William’s war. Nearly all these palaces will be aglow with en- tertainments, given in honor of the delegates to the Peace Conference. Among the recreations of the visitors will be the beautiful drive to Scheven- ingen, at the seashore. It was off this watering place that the Dutch Admiral Van Tromp was de- feated by the English. Baron de Staal will preside over the de- libérations of the conference. He is one of the wilieat of diplomats and is the Czar’s Ambassaior in London. Then there is Ea- fior Stear, fresh from a eccnference with the Fluss’an ruler, and it is already plain that overtures ure being mzde to the Amer. four legates by the Russian representa- Stead says that the Czar, so far .OT CONSISTENT. Advice of Many Temperance Workers. any times while I was an active tker in the W. C. T. U. and was ging men to give up drinking, I would _ sel ashamed of my own slavery to cof- fee. Many times I would determine to give up, but it had such a mastery over me that I became sick and distressed, and would return to it, which is exactly expressed the strongest sympathy with the American indignation over the German at- titude concerning the Philippines, etc. The impress.on here is that Germany will be found opposed to the whole spirit of the Czar's proposal. The German delegates are endeavoring to counteract this idea by pro- fessing enthusiastic devotion to the aims of the conference and confidence in the prac- tical advantage that will spring from it. The American delegates, it is understood, will carefully abstain from mixing in purely European questions, but will take an earn- est part in the discussion of the applica- tion of arbitration and improvements in the Geneva ruies for the protection of fleld hos- pitals, giving also special attention to the abolition of privateering and the exemption of all private property from seizure except contraband of war, this policy being the same as that adopted by Benjamin Frank- lin in negotiating the treaty with Frederick the Great and euccessively urged by Presi- dents James Monroe, ames Buchanan, Benjamin Harrison and William McKinley. At the opening session to-day three com- missioners Were named to arrange pro- grammes for discussion. The first relates to restrictions of armaments and military expenditures; the second deals with the laws governing civilized warfare, and the third, with mediation and arb'tration.

SEDALIA, MO., May -18.—John B. Quigley came to Sedalia in March, 1887, and purchased a controlling in- terest in the water company. His family followed in 1892 and still live here.

Sec. 10. — QUALIFICATIONS ELECTED AND APPOINTED FICPRS.—All elected and officers sha!l possess the qualifications: They shall have been citizens of the United States and of the City of St. Louis for at least two vears previous to their election or ap- pointment. ho 6 te OF (yl - appointed following Mayor Ziegenhein has teen asked many times since Tuesday night to explain why he sent to the Council the name of John B. Quigley for Water Commissioner, The nomination created much surprise. There seems to be two impediments to Mr. Quigley’s confirmation—he is said to be a “promoter” and to not be a citizen of St. Louis. , It is declared that Mr. Quigley has not been a citizen of St. Louis two years, as the charter lays down as a conditfon precedent ‘to appointment to office. He was named and recognized as the promoter of a filtra- tion scheme, which was denounced at the time as a scheme for a private corporation to get possession of the $60,000,000 water- works plant. Mr. Quigley is little known in St. Louis as an engineer. He is well known here and over the State as a promoter, and he is conceded to be one of the most successful promoters who ever promoted, But there fs a negative side to his value as a promoter. He promoted the scheme for removing the capital of ' ‘Missouri from Jefferson City to Sedalia. Under Mr. Quigley’s management @ spectacular campaign was carried through, but the capital was not moved. Soon after this failure Mr. Quigley flashed upon St. Louis as the promoter of a filter echeme. On July 6, 1897, a bill which came to be designated as House. Bill No, 120, was ‘in uced the. House of Delegates by . Delegate Sweeney. It was ‘‘An ordinance to provide for the sanitary filtering of all of the water distributed from the city ‘waterworks for arty and private uses by . the use of Jewell filters or the Jewell fil- ters and Jewell electric process.”’ . July 9 it was given second reading and referred to the Committee on Ways and Linens !N HALF-DOZENS. A drummer for a linen house has let-us have his entire sam- ple lines of Napkins and Towels.

Mr. Quigley was escorted about by a sub- promoter, who introduced him as the en- » Bineer of the great capital removal scheme and prophesied that he would do wonder- ful things if the filter bill was passed. This _sub-promoter whispered confidentially that _ there would be glittering rewards for every- body who helped to promote its passage. The company interested in the passage of the bill could have afforded to pay weil for .it being made a law, but the Ways and Means Committee held up the bill until Aug. 2, when Bersch, in exerting himself to push the bill along, got it killed. He moved that the bill be taken away froin the committee. This motion carried and the House then apparently piqued at the slow methods of the promoter, Lilled it, after a motion to refer it to the Sanitary Committee had failed. It was declared then and is declared now by members of the Board of Public Im.- At gab that if the bill had become a aw, the city would have become involved in a contract which it could po: carry out and had obligations forced upon it which it could not meet.

Attorney Mauer, for the prisoner, asked a change of venue on the ground that cer- tain articles printed in a sensational after- noon periodical had so influenced public sentiment that his client could not have an impartial trial. Several probable jurors were summoned as witnesses and were asked whether they had been influenced by the articles.

Judge Klein decided that inasmuch as the dently ‘because of lack of circulation, no harm had been done and refused the change of venue.

The ‘most common and annoying 1s itching the piles, indicated by warmth, slight mois- ture and intense, uncontrollable itching in the parts affected. The usual treatment has been some sim- ple ointment or salve. which sometimes | give temporary relief, but nothing like a ‘permanent cure can be expected from | such superficial treatment. Se The only permanent cure for itching piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for itching piles, but for every other form of piles, blind, bleeding or protruding. The first application gives instant relief and the continued use for a short time causes a permanent re- moval of the tumors or the small para- sites which cause the intense itching and discomfort of itching piles. Many physicians for a long time sup- posed that the remarkable relief afforded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because it was supposed to contain cocaine, opium, or similar drugs, but such is not the case. A recent careful analysis of the remedy showed it to be absolutely free from any cocaine, opium, or in fact any poisonous, injurious drugs whatever. Sold by druggists at 00 cents per package.

M’ADAM. Veteran Journalist Passed Away at His Home in Woodlawn. David H. MacAdam, prominent for many year in St. Louis journalism and public life, died Wednesday night at his home in Woodlawn. The funeral services will be held Friday afternoon at 3 o’clock to Oak Ridge Cemetery. Mr. ‘MacAdam was born Aug. 17, 1842, in Dublin, Ireland, and came to St. Louis in 1868. His first work in this city was as a reporter for the old Missouri Republican, of which he was subsequently city editor and for 20 years an editorial writer. When Joseph Brown was elected Mayor he made Mr. McAdam his secretary. On the election of Mayor Overstolz he also called Mr. MacAdam to that confidential post, wh'ch he held till the end of Mayor Overstolz’s term. Mr. MacAdam was next chosen Recorder of Deeds. He found time to study law in the midst of his newspaper and official duties, and, on his retirement from the Recorder's office, devoted himself to the profession, mainly in the character of counselor and financial agent. In 1870 Mr. MacAdam was married to Miss Mary E. Smith of New Albany, Ind. The widow, with two children, Hastings and Sara E., survives him. Mr. MacAdam was ever a@ graceful, vig- orous writer and a polished gentleman. A TOUR THROUGH IRELAND. Rev Father Sheehy Will Repeat His Lecture Next Sunday Night. Father Sheehy’s ‘Tour Through Ireland,” with a series of 300 rare views of the Emerald Isle Jast Sunday night at the Fourteenth Street Theater met with marked success. for a continuation of the exhibition. Father Sheehy readily assented and for this pur- pose secured the Fourteenth Street again for next Sunday night, May 21. No such display of. views of Ireland has ever been thrown on a canves here. It re- veals Ireland to be all that its friends claim all doubt in the minds of those who hesi- tate to admit the claim. “Tour’’ of his country is an educator as well as an entertainment and deserves its full success. Speaker Reed Was Once a Sailor. From the Knoxville Journal and Tribune. It is not generally known that Speaker Reed was at one time in the American navy, When, in 1860, be returned to his home in Portland ,after hav- i been graduated from Bowdoin with honors, he tried his hand at law.. But he soon afterwards secured an appointment as acting assistant pay- master in the navy. Reed served on the Sybil, which patrolled the Tennessee, Cumberland and Mississippi Rivers. Her service Was uneventful and tn i865 Reed returned to Portland to practice law. As a young lawyer he displayed the same qualities of ability and aggressiveness which have en a conspicuous characteristic of his political life. One of the strongest men at the Portland bar at the time was A. A. Strout. Before begin- ning the trial of a suit it was Strout’s habit to in- quire of every juror as to the state of his health, and impress each with the idea that the lawyer was solicitous of that juror’s personal welfare. Reed and Strout were constantly antagonizing each other, though they were very good friends. In nearly every case of importance Strout and Reed were on opposite sides. It was annoying, indeed, for the suave Strout to hear Reed draw! out be- fore the opening of a case: “Well, your honor, Brother Strout having fia- ished his morning task of shaking bands with the jury, we may now, I bope, proceed with the busi- ness of the court.”’ The Blakely (Ga.) Reporter says there is a. man in Early County who has been re- lieved of road duty for years on a “‘techni- cality.”” It ig customary to summon a man to work the road nearest to where he sleeps and has his ciothing washed. As this man has never been seen with so much as a clean shirt on, the supposition is that he has no washing done and he is relieved of road duty.

A portion of the space in his room is taken up by a pile of tron bedsteads, which are used for the jury when one is called by the County Court The floor is of cement and the ceiling of steel.

He had scores of cards of curious visitors and a foreign postmarked envelope receive] ithe other day contatns a long list of names and the following on the letterhead of the American Consulate at St. Petersburg: ““A party of Americans in St. Petersburg read in an American paper an account ot your incarcerat’on in the El Paso County jail for contempt of court, because you re.- fused to surrender a -judgment you held. The American Consul General and others of us rather admire your grit in this case, and we are very anxious to hear how your case comes on.” His dress in jail would be good enough for an after-dinner stroll along Cascade avenue, His trowsers cling to the leg with a stamp of an excellent tailor. His coat and waistcoats follow the prevailing style, and you look around, involuntarily, for a silk hat. When he is in the mood he dons a Tuxedo and full dress just before dinner, and stands at the window facing on Cas- cade avenue, watching the equipages of this broad and fashionable drive. Many a nod and wave of the hand does he receive, and his bows and smiles are almost continuous, Doyle looks particularly well in full dress, the high collar and the immaculate white- ness of his shirt throwing into strong relief his somewhat sallow face, blue eyes and thick head of very black hair. Across from the jail is the Houston plan- ing milk where Doyle worked when a young man. Then he was superintendent of irrigAtion for Colorado Springs, bear- ing the distinction of being the youngest incumbent the position ever had. It some- times causes h'm to wonder what fate is guiding gis Nfe, for the jail is rtght in the vicinity where the early years of the lucky young wanderer from Portland, Me., were cast. One of the most é6olacing friendships that this almost misanthropic millionaire has formed is with Philip J.

The furnace was entirely unharmed, as the force was out and away from it. The corrugated iron roof of the cast shed was, practically, the only real loss. This being old, was easily wrecked by the.

PATRICK GUARD THE EAST SIDE CHURCH. A sanall knot. of men, who occupy a po- sition midway of St. Patrick’s Church and the priest’s house tn East St. Louls night and day, on the interchangeable system, is all there is to indicate that there ts trouble in the parish. The “knot” has been on “picket’’ duty since Tuesday in anticipation of the ar- rival of the new prelate, Vicar-General William Cluse from Germantown. There are five “guardsmen” in each of the two relays and any one of them will tell an in- quirer that they are on duty w'th the special object of preventing Father Cluse going into the church when he comes. A more searching investigation will re- veal,the fact that each of the five “pickets” or a good substitute will be on duty at that exact spot when Father Cluse makes his appearance in East St. Louis, if it is to-morrow, a year or five years hence. In a word, the pickets represent about 3500 parishioners who urged in open meeting two weeks ago that they should resiet any at- tempt to substitute a German-Américan for their beloved pastor, who died in January after presiding over the parish more than a quarter of a century. “We don't want that; German to come inte our church and, what's more, we don't eceilendiiiinies. cate ee ee ee tors are made of hard- wood—filled with char- coal sheathing — thor- oughly lined through- out and have patent removable waste pipe.

Oather Downey, the .administrator of Father O’ Holleran, who was appointed —, porarily in the deceased prelates st ad, — been notified by B.shop Jannsen that hat 1e! Cluse is to be his successor, but Father Downey says he doesn't know when he is expected to release the pastorship, whether he will accept the curacy if it be sndered him. ss chee there is an open clash, Chief of Police Hauss says his department will not go oe been no occasion for anybody to invoke the assistance of the authorities, Only the parishioners are directly interested in the ultimate result of the controversy and it {s a one-sided affair that far. There is no doubt the parishioners will not allow the vestments in_ the ehurch touched by the appointee of Bishop Jannsen if that dignitary persists in his determina- tion to send none but a German-American priest to take charge of the parish. The controversy began 15 years ago when the boundary lines of the difocese were changed placing East St. Louis in the Belle- ville @iocese under the bishopric of Rev. Father Jannsen instead of Bishop Ryan, as was partially recommended by Father O’Holleran, between whom and the now Bishop Jannsen there is said to have ex- isted a coolness for several years.

Orpha Noble has changed her name to Orpha Collier by the permission of Judge Wood. She is the niece of the wealthy Mrs. Julia Collier of 3732 North Eleventh street, who wished to formally adopt her. She 21 years old and has for nearly a vear lived with her aunt, who had her come to her soon after the death of her husband. Mrs. Collier said: “I felt lonely after the death of my husband and as I had no nearer relative and no children who could stay with me I asked the parentea of Julia to allow her to come and Uve with me and I uld take a motherly interest in her. “T was grontes this permission and I have come to love Julia so that I wish her to have my property when I am gone.” “No one has any better claim on me and I intend to do the best I can for her.’”’ Orpha Nobile, now Collier, was born in Picton, Ontario, where she lived with her parents till Mrs. Collier asked her to come to her. Julia's mother died several years ago and her father, who still lives in Pic- ton, is the only member of her family. FOUND DEAD IN HIS BED. Jacob Schoop Had Saved a Small For- tune as a Laborer.

Outside of St. Louis: — Democrats in the House of Representatives who are tempted to vote for the street railway combine should carefully read Attorney-General Crow’s utterance on the consolidation bill in to-day’s Post-Dispatch. The Attorney-General shows that the bill is an attempt to protect the street railway monopoly through a legislative act from the expected decision of the Supreme Court in the sult now pending against the Lindel! Railway. Hesays it nullifies, as far as it goes, all the anti- trust work in this State.

It is a reproach to the State cf Mirsouri. If the assault cn the House shall succeed it will gO far toward proving the utter failure of representative law- Makirg. It will offer another demcnstration that the Legisla- ture is merely an opportunity for the mutual profit of cor- poration vultures and boodiers. : ~The success of the street railway monopoly Dill through Democratic votes, while the Democratic party is posing as the ‘Ghampion of the people against monopoly, would be a damag- ing reflection on Democratic sincerity.

CARNEGIE. - Multi-millionaire Carnegie, having announced that he in- tended to disposs of much of his superfluous wealth in char- itable works, finds himself dogged by a myriad of hegging letter writers. He has been compelled to flee to his Scotch Castile to escane them, but the postman will find him even there, and a good many of the cranks and frauds whom he Nas aroused muy follow up their letters in person when they become exasperated at the millionaire’s refusal to reply. Mr. Carnegie is in a fix. But he himself is to blame for it. Instead of not letting his left hand know what his right hand Was doing. he a!lowed it to be published all over the worid that he had a “pile” and wanted to diminish it by relieving distress. The distress that really needs relieving will be slow to make itself known. But there are many thousands of persons in all lands who expect to make a living’ by feigning distress, and in blowing the horn of charity Mr. Carnegie has Grawn.all this horde of tricksters and whiners after him. This ought to be a warning to other millionaires who desire to do some good in the world. Effective charitable work, like Prayer, is best exercised in quiet. The housetop method is apt to set in motion the stifling deeps of fraud and self-seeking. = -_ . Missouri's leadership in the anti-trust fight will be put to Bcorn should the State Legislature authorize the creation of a monster street car combine. —_——_— ———__-*#o0 « THE PEACE CONGRESS. The Peace Congress called by the Russian Gear assembles ' tO-duy at The Hacue. The object of this congress is not the abolition of war. as some persons have supposed, but the mitigation of the horrors of war and restraint upon the armaments, politely known as the gvarantees of peace. But even though it-be not designed to bring about perma- nent universal peace, the congress is a triumph of civilization. Tt is a distinct recognition and avowal of the fact that war is en evil and must not be wantonly undertaken by any power. o. a2 expresses the world-wide desire for peace, for the settle- Ment of international disnutes in the same rational manner fn which private quarrels are composed, for a settled, well Bnderetood system of foreign policy among all governments . which shall eliminate, as far as may be, all thought of war @xXcept as a last resort. Looked at in this way the cohgress is an encouraging sign, Tn spite of the suspicions of bad faith, good is bound to come of it. It points to the better way.

On another page of ‘the Post-Dispatch will be found an appeal to the press and the people from the National Dewey Home Committee in behalf of the Dewey testimonial. The committee was appointed in accordance with a sugges- tion that the American people give the hero of Manila a per- manent testimonial of their admiration and affection. It was decided that the best memorial would be a home in Washing- ton to be purchased with small contributions from the people. The idea is to raise a fund of about $100,000. If the movement should fail the money will be refunded to subscribers. if the fund is successful it is proposed to send each subscriber an engraved receipt containing Admiral Dew- ey’s picture. Full names and addresses should be sent with subscriptions. The movement will pot fail. The Post-Dispatch heartily indorses the memorial plan and gladly accepts the commis- sion to receive subscriptions. Large contributions are not sought by the committee. Councilman Carroll and his associates in the Council com- bine have publicly defended their opposition to the Muyor's appointments on the ground that they do not intend to per- mit the appointment of unfit men, and especially that they will net cohseni to have the Waterworks fall into the hands of a man less trustworthy and capable than Mr. Holman. Do Mr. Carroll and his associates think that John B. Quigley is the right man to succeed Mr. Holman’? Do they think that a promoter who came to St. Louis to secure a contract with the city for’ a Chicago filter company is the man to take charge of our municipal waterworks? oS = ° => rw NO SPRINKLING, NO PAY. Protests are coming to the Post-Dispatch office against the careless way in which the city sprinkling is being done by the contractors. On several warm days recently, the streets in manv parts of town have been as dry during a portion of the day as if no-sprinkling carts had passed through them. Pedestrians, street car patrons and storekeepers have been choked and blinded by the flying clouds of dust. The .citizens pay enough to have the streets properly sprinkled, but nearly all this work is done in a slipshod man- ner. Streets are either flooded or dry. Yet the contractors expect to get their pay and inspectors who do not inspect or who are mere payroll dummies pocket e people’s money and go their way. Citizens who see that sprinkling is neglected should unite with their neighbors to resist the payment of sprinkling tax bills. They should show hy their actions that they do not propose to be robbed any longer by unscrupulous contractors, sham inspectors and their pals at the City Hall. No sprink- ling, no pay, should be the rule. Its enforcement would soon bring about better service. -—— ~—- — -—- © @@ Mr. Murphy of the New York Board of Health is likely to find trouble in enforcing a law against Christian Science treatment, even if he should succeed in getfing one passed.

The Sclentifie American says: lA lamp may be standing on a table or mantel, and a elight puff of air from the open window, or sudden opening of a door, may cause an explosion. -. A lamp may be taken up quick:y from a table or mantel, and Instantly explode. 3. A lamp ts taken into an entry where there js a strong draught, or out of doors, and an explosion ensues. 4. A lighted lamp ts taken up a flight of Stairs, or raised quickly to place it on the mantel, resuliing in an explosion. In all these cases the mischief is done by the air movement—either by suddenly checking the draught or forcing air down the ch.mney against the flame. » Blowing down guish the ight is a plosion. 6.

It was at time of the Apache troubles which ended in the inearceration of old Geronimo Dave and I etaried out of Tombstone, Ariz., on that a prospecting tour, and were gone two or) three months. At the end of that time we learned that Geronimo and his White Mountain Apaches had taken the war pata, and as we did not care to get mixed up with any war parties, we concluded to get in toward eeme settlement or fort where we would not be so lonesome and exposed. We were working out of the foothills to- ward Peach Springs, keeping under cover as much as possibile and avoiding the regu- lar trails. “about an hovr before sundown one night, when we were looking for a likely spot for a camp, we saw a band of horse- men in the distance. Sizing them up through our field glasses we saw they were cattlemen, and that they were surrounding the entrance to a gorge that ran into the face of a rocky bluff. We rode over to them and foun the opening as though they were waiting for something to come out. We showed our curiosity, I suppose, for one of them, ap- parently the leatler of the posée, volun- teered the information that they had chased five redskins into the guich and that they were laying for them. “ ‘Laying for ‘em? sniffed Dave. ‘You'l! lay for ‘em a long time before they ever | get out of there. Why don’t you go in after "em? : “Go in after, says you?

By the ruling of the Comptroller's office, thelr pay was cut off, and the Board of ‘Commissioners compelled to suspend them from duty. An aroused ror sentiment demanded in etrong ami forceful language that the Ma- nicipal Assembly pass a temporary ale a tion bili for their reinstatement. ‘pen fa- vorable action was imminent, Comptroller stur- geon appeared before the House of Delegates and by ingenious arguments caused the Assem- bly to postpone action, stating that later on the annua apportionment of city revenues would be made, and the Assembly could act more intelligently. Incidently, he argued in favor of building a new City Hospital. The purpose of Mr. Sturgeon was to favorable action by the yg og, f a when this apportionment is made by Mr. Sturgeon there will be no funds left for appropriation for the retention of probationary patrolmen, The situation has resolved itself into this: Public opinion has demanded of the Municipal Assembly the passage of the appropriation bill so that adequate profection may be given to the citizen and his person and property, and when our public servants in the legislative department are on the eve of acting, Mr. Sturgeon, an opponent, aggressive and determined against the Police Department, goes before the As- sembly by specious means and gains a tempor- ary advantage. It looks as though he acted for Mayor Ziegenhein, who, whatever his person- al views might me, would not in the face of such strong public demand veto the bill. The question is, shall the voice of the people or of Mr. Sturgeon control the Municipal os sembly’s action? Postponement of action by the Assembly entails no hardship on Mr. Stur- geon, bat about S800 mouthe Jeok for bread to the men who are suspende:. Which claim is the strongest?

He teetified that as treasurer of the Police Board he had divided the deposit of the pension fund, amounting to about $100,000 between the Bowery National and the Garfield National Ranks. It formerly was all in the Bowery concern. He gave several reasons for this change, bet finally admitted that Commis- sioner Sexton might have first suggested the change. James P.

Peffer, one of the founders of the Populist party, and whe was for yearns considered as the chief ex- ponent of Populism has returned to the Republican fold. The apparent settlement of many of the questions which were the cause of the organization of the Alll- ance contributed to the change in the po- litical attitude of Senator Peffer.

Boston at Loulsville, a Umpires Burns and Smith, who have been roundly criticised in every city they have umpired in this season, were again in ev!- Jence Wednesday. The poor judgment shown by these two individuals lost St. Louls the third game of the series with Louisville. The most of the blame rests on the shoulders of Mr. Smith. The game was yoing finely, and after Louisville had nad heir half of the seventh inning a light rain regan to fall. St. Louis went to the bat. and with one out filled the bases. Things looked bright for the locals. but then, to the astonishment of the enthusi- asts, Umpire Smith wa‘ked to the bench, calling the game. The contest was called back to the sixth inning, when the score was two to one in the Colonels’ favor. After waiting the 40 minutes allowed, the rain did not stop. so Louisville went home with a game that they will get the credit for winning, but one that was not won by them on merits. Powell pitched for.the ‘‘Adopted Sons,”’ and, aS usual, was easy the first part of the game, but when le sett.ed down ‘he wes hard to hit. Five stingy hits were all that was recorded against him. Jack has a knack of generally winning games wut\p the last moment, and until Mr. Sm th lose tis head and went up in the alr it twoxKed as if he was about to win Wednesday's game. Phillippi, the Colonels’ “Sunday best” pitcher, twirled for them tn Wednesday's game. He is a great, big fel'ow and has plenty of speed. His contro! is almost let- ter, perfect, and he fie!ds his pos.tion in great style, Beven hits were made off him. and had the game not been called he mignt have been batted for double the amount. Just as the excited Mr. Smith callel the ame Philippi was being hit by the locals, mit it Was too late then, and Louisvill» re- ceived the game as a present from the gen- erous Mr. Smith, who is anxious that he receive a warm welcome when he visits Loultsville. Criger. the little fellow who has been do- ing most of the catching for St. ‘outa lately, is a good sticker. He handles the willow like a veteran hitter, and in every game. manages to land one or two aafely. Jesse Burkett {fs still] do'ng business at the same o!d stand. Two more hits for him In Wednesday's game assures the fans that he has decided to continue his hitting. The man who bats better than Jesse needs knock the tover off tre sphere. The Syracuse Journal says about George Winters, who played on the local Sporting News team last year: “George Winters is entitied to all the credit that can be heaped upon him. He has been heralded as tre man with the glass arm. And !t can’t be denied that his throwing arm: was and perhaps is yet rather lame from an linduiry early in the season. But if Winters ‘s a Sampie of the glass-arm species. wve us @ whole team of glass-armers. Winters’ bit. ting was terrific. He was at bit tive times, anand five times did he swipe the ball. ard cleaner hits were never seen at Siar Park.

He was for years the holder of valuable privileges at the Fair Grounds and in re- cent racing seasons out there he figured as one of the regulars. Mr. Fehl was not only a lover of the thoroughbred, but he was perhaps the leading harness horseman of St. Louls and he was often seen on the} road with his great team of pacers, Blue | Ribbon and Dandy.

From the Weekly Telegraph. A good story is told of a young man, who, besides beingwof the spendthrift order. is a splendid mimic, and can imitate his father’s voice to a nicety. Not long ago thé young man wanted without delay some money to pay a bill, and he knew that his father would treat a request for the same with cold contempt. Waiting till he knew that his father would be away, he went to the telephone call room and rang up the office, calling for the casn- ier. The cashier wae forthcoming, and when he was at the other end the young man imitated his sire’s voice. ‘T say, Blank, if that scapegrace of a son of mine comes round and asks for 2 pounds sterling, don’t give it to him. Only give him 10 pounds sterling.” The cashier promiged that he would fulfill the commands. Not long after the gon called at the office and demanded 2 pounds sterling. He was refused by the conscienticus cashier, and, apparently in anger, the young man «@ntented himself with the 10 pounds aterling. When the old man reach the office there was a@ scene. VIOLINS FROM NATIVE WOODS. A Seattle Man’s Instruments Have Been Praised by Ysaye and Musin. From the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. The professor gently rubbed the shining back of the violin with a fat, pudgy hand, and then, tucking it beneath his chin, drew ne lng @ dozen brilliant and sonorous arpeg- gios, ‘Its tome reminds me of the Guarnerius del Gesu,”’ hea said, reflectively. “Of course you have used Italian wood and a model from which te work?” “The top is Washington spruce, the back ls of native maple,” said the maker. “And as for the model, it's my own.” The professor's face indicated both won- der amd incredulity. The scene was in the dusty, quaint and curious workshop of Oakes, the violin builder of Madison street, His friends call him the Stradivarius of Washington. From a tall, cushioned glass case the precoaser took one after another of 10 rich- y colored and beautifully formed instru- ments, in a fruitless endeavor to convince himself which of them he liked moat, Then, giving it up, he entered Into an argu- ment with the veteran violins as com- pared with those of modern make. Oukes claims that it is not the age of the wood or the mysterious, half supernatural ower attributed to Stradivarius, Di Salo, Maggini and Guarnerius, that made the Cremona violirs instruments capable of surpassing melody and wonderful power; in other words, he asserts, that a victin of to-day. properly constructed and scientific- ally put together, can be made the equal of the best Works that came from the Bhops of the Cremona masters. “] may not succeed tn convincing any one that the position I have taken is a good one,” said the violin maker, as he patiently chipped out the back of a violin from a thick plece of beautifully figured maple: “Lifelong opinions are not given up in a moment. All I can to is to set people to thinking. I claim that Waghing- ton spruce and maple have quatities from which the finest tones can be obtained, when the wood Is properly selected and put together.” tNearly forty years ago, when litle more than a lad in @ village in Bastern Canada, (lakes firet becan the study of violin buiid- ing.

DEINVER, Colo., May 18.—The 68th gen- eral assembly of the Cumberland Presbyter- jan Church met in the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church of Denver. About 300 delegates, coming from all] parts of the country, were present when asthe Moderator, Gen. H. H. Norman of Mur- freesboro. Tenn., called the assembly to or- der. After devotional exercises, Rev. Dr. W. H. Black, President of the ‘Missouri Valley College of Marshall, Mo., preached the opening sermon. The reports of the different boards and bodies were submitted. The report of the Educational Society stated that “Scarcely a discordant note had heen heard among-the Synods or Presby- teries, and ‘the expression of public opinion through the press had all been in line with our avowed denominational policy as voiced by the General Assembly. No great doc- trinal pillar is more firmly fixed in our de- nominational thought than the motto pro- claimed by the assembly four years ago and universally aperoves throughout | the churen, ‘Education before ordination.’ The Board of Ministeral Relief reported receipts of $10,068, and disbureements of $9579. a balance on hand being $2852. The endowment fund amomste to $19,874 and the | total assets are $29,4 The trustees of Comaberinné » beragrenges, reported that the number of students in all departments was 226, of whom 4 were at- | tending the Theological Se hool.

The table is made perfectly level; then tinfoil] is carefully lald over it, cov- ering a greater space than the glass to be coated. The metal] is then poured upon the fol] until it is nearly a quarter of an inch deep, being epre- vented from flowing off by strips of glass placed along three sides of the foil. From the opening siJe is sild on the plate of glass, whose advanc. ing edge ia kept in the mercury, 80 that oo alr, floating oxide of the metal or other impurities ean work in between the glass and the clean sur- face of the mercury.
