Furthermore, the wires at the foreign office are busy with a long d-spatch from the British Commissioner in South Africa, Sir Alfred Milner, to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, Joseph Chamberlain, which is being rapidly repeated to the latter’s Birm- ingham home, so the contents of the Boer reply will probably be to-night with Great Lritain’s Colonial Secretary.

The selection of Sir George Stewart White to command the troops in Natal meets universal approval, as also does the announcement that in the event war Sir Bedvers Buller will take supreme in South Africa. Both men great experience, bravery and ul. ness. The departure of the troops from South- ampton for Natal to-day was marked by such scenes as have not occurred in Engé- land for many years Wives, daughters, sweethearts and friends crowded around the Northumberland Fusileers, or as they are better known, “The Fighting F.fth,” on the stations and at the docks, crying.

Most of the special service of- ficers wore civilian clothes, but as many of them are well kuown. they were quickly recognized and received ovations. The Fighting Fifth nearly all wore the Khar- toum medal. The long-winded negotiations with the Boers have apparently not inflamed the British populace.

In regard to the other points of Mr. Chamberlain’s dispatch, the Transvaal boldly stands by the London convention. Jt is said that the reply is couched in po- lite terms. Another Pretoria special, dated Sept. 15, fays the situation is now regarded as all but hopeless, unless Great Britain retreats from her position. The dispatch adds: The Governments of the two republics consider the Transvaal should refuse to concede anything further and it is he.ieved soers will have the support of all the Afr.kanders throughout South Africa It is growing more evident every day that the real in the Anglo-Boer dispute is not as to the franchise or the redress of Uitlander grievances generally, but En- gland’s suzerainty, and that if war comes it will be over this question. Whether with or without reason from his point of view, Mr. Kruger has long had the fear that Mr. Chamberlain's nim is not simply the redrese of the gr.ev- ances of which he complained, but that he has u terior designs on the independence of the Tranevaa] Republic.

WDJING == PLANS = CHANGED premrye 2FE es Miss Grant Must Be Married Accord- ing to the Rites of the Greek Church. NPWPORT, R. L, Sept. 16.—The plans for the Cantacuzene-Grant wedding have been changed. It was intended that the Episcopal service should take place in All Saints’ Chapel Monday, September 2%, fol- lowed by the Greek ceremony in private mintention of riding ‘Lynchburg five years ago, at Mrs, Palmer's villa. The prince ts a Greek Catholic and the marriage laws of his church, which are very strict, do not recognize the validity of the marriage of a Russian performed by a clergyman out- side that faith. The head of the Russian church fn. the United States informed the Prince that the Russian ceremony must take place first or not at al] and that a refusal to comply would piace the Prince in a bad LUght in his own country and might cause his public discipline, or injure his standing in the army, where all officers supposed to live up to the iaws of the Greek Church, The advice of the Greek Bishop was as- sented to by the Prince, which compelied a change in the plans. The Greek cere- mony must come first; therefore, in pri- vate, on Sunday evening, Sept. 24, Prince and Miss Ju‘ia Dent Grant wil) be married by Rev. Father Hotovitsky of New York, assisted by two other Ruvsian clergymen of New York.

CHICAGO, Ul. Sept. 16.+William J. Bryan carried «the trust conference by storm. For two hours this morning and half an hour this evening, in a debate with Bourke Cockran, the people applauded and shouted approval] of his suggestions. A great throng was in attendance and no speaker before the conference received the sympathy and applause that greeted Bryan. He was introduced by Gov. Stanley, of Kansas. The appearance of Mr. Bryan be- fore the audience waa a signal for two minutes of cheering. He looked weil, spoke vigorously, and, as Mr. Corkran said, “showed by his answers to questions from ae that he was a magter of re- ae a was never In berttdr form. His manner was calm and dignifiedjand earnest. His audience was with him at the start and grew enthusigstic. His appeal was for the abolition of monopoly and the restora- tion of competition of the individual by a co-ordinate system of State and Federal laws: first, a Federal law forbidding a cor- | roration to do business outside the State giving it its charter without a revokable | *he Congress | it has seen license from the Congress, not to grant the license untt. that the corporation has not watered its stock, has not attempted to monopolize a product, has not kept its business secret, but has given full publicity to its affairs. Second, State laws, forbidd! corpora- tions under pain of losing hel hata to water their stock, to attempt t | monopolize or to contribute to the campaign funds of | a political party. Mr. Faulke replied In the afternoon. He repeated his opinion that the tendency of | capital to centralization was in response to an Irresistible economic law and that government interference could not suspend Bryan what was that law. He asked Mr. the use of passing a Federal law dealing with manufacturing corporations when the, Supreme Court had already held that such a law would be unconstitutional. ther inquired how was Mr. Bryan go.ng to enforce these proposed laws, assuming that they were constitutional. Who was to de- cide how much the good will of a corpora- tion was worth, at how much it could just- ly be capitalized? What was to prevent a corporation from putt.ng up a dummy iIndi- , vidual middle man, selling its goods to h.m and letting him resell them fn other States, thus making it Impossible for the Govern- ment to interfere? Mr. Fau.ke subscribed heurtily to Mr. Bryan's proposals as to publicity and as to campaign funds, but ,as to the other matters he reminded Mr. Bryan that about half the States already had strong anti-trust laws, which were not enforced and presumably not enforci- bie; that worthless laws upon the statute books were a menace to pubilec order and to liberty an endiess source of corruption. Mr. Bryan began to reply from the auul- ence, but was compelled to take the piat- form. He spoke for nearly half an hour. He protested aga.nst and satirized Mr. Fauike’s position as that of a mere ob- jector. tried, and if they failed, then otherg must be found and tried untill monopoly was ae- stroyed. It might be that his proposed laws would be deciared unconstitut.onal. If | so, then they or the constitution could be amended. He did not insist, he sa.d, upon his own suggestions, but wanted to hear others and better ones and did not care for that spirit wh.ch reminded him of the cheerful hungry man, who, when his head was stolen, said: ‘Weil, thank God, at any rate I still have my appetite left.”’ Mr. Cockran replied to Mr. Bryan. Mr. Cockran feared that this shout about mo- nopoly was a spirit of vague mysterious no.se terrifying because no one exactiy un- derstood its seurce. Hie had no words of condemnation strong enough for privilege and favor and discrimination. But he in- rea] spirit behind the aggrega- tions of capital was the spirit of competi- tion and that the only permanent monopoly that pub- licity would kUI the evils from privi.ege and discrimination, that no power on earth couid kill the monopoly of excellence and that no powers ought to try to kill it, ought to try to sustain mediocrity and in- feriority at the expense of superiority. Mr. Cockran thought that the only real peril In the phenomenon of capitalistic cen- eralzation is the distrust and hatred be tween employers and employes that result in strikes and riots. He urged the moet drastic legis.ation to prevent th calamj- ties, to compel employers and empluyes to realize that their interest was to work to- gether in the production of the moat goods and the best goods at the cheapert prices. Mr. Cockran was now applauced, now hissed, and now lstened to coldly.

NEARSILK is a patented and trade-mark fabric, which can only be sold at 25¢ per yard, and at no other price under any circumstances, and that no other goods can be offered as NEARSILK. Following the well-known custom of our house, of never making any misrepresentation, we beg to state that from now on, a complete stock of the genuine NEARSILK can be had at our Lining De- partment at 25¢ a yard. We beg to remind you once more that goods offered as NEARSILK at less than 25¢ a yard cannot be the genuine. PENNY & GENTLES. Squire Schnecko’s Wife Took French Leave. IS PROBABLY IN ST. LOUIS. THE SQUIRE ONE OF THE WEALTHIEST COUNTY MEN. 999599099004 OSO0 He Was Twenty Years Postmaster of Spanish Lake and Twenty Years a Justice—His Wife Former- ly Kept a Boarding House. Squire R. C. Schnecko of Spanish Lake, one of the wealthiest men of Bt. Louis County, has been deseried by his wife, to Whom he had been married jess than a year. She is 50 years.of age, and handsome, and he is 59. According to the husband's siatements, his wife persuaded him to go fishing. When he returned his home was deserted. His wife had gone and taken her furniture and household effects with her. Where she has gone no one knows. What prompted her to the step is a mystery. The affair has been kept secret by the Squire for sev- eral days, doubtiess in the hope that his wife would return to him, and in the dread of the distasteiui notoriety that would se- sult when given publicity. Mrs, schnecko was missed by her neigh- bors, however, and fina.ly the secret leaked out. It was whispered about from ear to ear until now the entire popuiaiion of Spanish Lake is shocked over the strange action of Mrs. Schnecko. . bvery one who knows them declares that the married life of Squire and MIs. o OUIS ) Cp ad 9 ad Schnecko was one of seemingly perfect happiness.

MAY HAVE DEALT WITH RUSSIA. This Is the Charge of One Newspaper and ar Official Says That There Is Authority for It. BHRLIN, Sept. 16.—Though the Govern- ment has taken pains to preserve its equi- lfbr.um. the result of the Dreyfus trial has tremendously shocked the German people, irrespective of creed and politics. The bit- ter insult tmplied by_the total disregird upon the rt of the Rennes court-martial of the official Reilchzanzeiger’s deciaration of Dreyfus’ innocence is deeply felt hvere. Owing to the pecul ar relatidns with France these sentiments have not found full vent in the press and the Government organs have even done their best to smother them. But in conservation the real feeling of the people, indignation and almost contempt, are universally and freely expressed. A smal minority, composed of anti-Sem- ites, Agrarians and Conservatives, approved the sentence. The Hamburger Nachrichten, formerly the late Prince B.smarck’s or- gan, aeserted repeatedly that the evidence against Dreyfus this time was no more than had previously been made pub.ic, and that Dreyfus had been convicted not for spying for Germany, but for Russia, citing a mass of alleged evidence in support of this assertion. When those were disput- ed and ridiculed by the bulk of the press the paper sad the Information wae de- rived from a eource excluding all doubt of its authenticity and correctness, and was corroborated by several competent per- sons. This view wis shirel by a number of prominent papers, including the Deu:- sche Tages Zeitung. the Staatsburger Zel- tung and others. The correspondent here of the Associated Press hase interviewed a prominent foreign offic al, who said: ‘The Government was not surprised at the conviction of Dreyfus. The Reicasan- ze'ger publication was largely for the pur- pose of depriving the world of the cnante of saying Dreyfus had again been sentenced because Germeny kept silent. We post- poned the publication until the last mo- ment, as we suspected it might hurt rath- er than benefit the accueed. “Regarding the contents of the Ham- burger Nachrichten, we think it quite like- ly the paper is making the statements on good authority. Many well-informed per- sons believed Wreyfus had Russia and not Germany to deal with. ‘Concerning the talk of boycotting the Paris Exposition, it is not Germany's part to put herself ir the foreground in such a movement. The official relations of France and ole sg have not suffered in the least through the sentence. There is no intention upon the part of the govern- ment to join in any directly unfriendly steps against France. The best proof that we do not mean to suspend preparations for the exposition is that the chief com- missioner, Herr Richter, has just started for Paris.” This reported connection of Dreyfus wit® Russ'a is alsv common talk in diplomatic circles nere, where it finds credence, It is also siated that evidence of this was procuced at the secret sessicn at Rennes, and M. Delcasse’s hurried visit to St. Pe- tersburg just before the court-martial its cited in support of this theory. On the yuestion of joining in a boycott, pubiic opinion is divided. The big ma- jority favor active participation in the ex- position, while a number of leading and influential papers, like the Vossische Zeitung, Frankfurter Zeitung and YTiuve- biatt, advocate abstention. It is reported that a few important firms and several commercial associations have declared their cetermination to abstain, but these, so far, are the exception and not the rule. The bulk of influential opinion seems to await the action of Germany’s principal com- petitors in the commerc.al race, especially (great Britain and the United States, mm | will be guided thereby. MELINE THE COMING MAN. His Agitation, Though Not Yet Suc- cessful Is Promising. LONDON, Sept. 16.—While many indivi- dual decisions to boycott the Paris Exhi- bition continue to be announced, there is no sign of any official action upon the part of any country. As the Spectator forcibly says: “The trading classes implore the govern- ments to withdraw from tine exnib:tion, which is impossible, because it implies jn- terference in the internal affairs of an in- dependent state, and they aiso threaten to Withdraw their own exhibits. which is futlie, as their competitors Will immedi- ately accept the vacant places,” M.

He has not yet at- tained sufficient adhesions to effect his ob- ject, aus the paper: obtained seems to point him out as likely to head the nex government, > oe FRENCHMEN WELCOMED.

SERUM TESTS NOT A SUCCESS. Under the Oustomary Precautions, However, the Spread of Yellow Fever Has Been Narrowed. CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 16.—President Diaz opened Congress to-night. His meés- sage was long, dealing with the varied pha- ses of the national administration’s activ- ity during the last half year. The Presi- dent said: “Our relations with foreign countries have experienced no alteratior. except in the favorable sense. An extradition treaty with the United States Is now in operation, extradition treaties with Itaiy have been negotiated and will be submitted to the congress, and a treaty of commerce and friendship with Holland has been made operative.”’ Alluding to the peace conference at The Hague, the President said: “As a consequence of our participation in the Peace Conference, Mexico, in union with the other powers, with the principal powers of Asia and with the United States of America, will be represented in this permanent court of international jus- tice. She will also be represented in the administrative council of the court, which is to be composed of ministers accredited at The Hague. For this purpose, our dip- lomatic representation in Hol.and will soon be re-established, for, having been ap- prised that Holiand will accredit to Mex- ico her plenipotentiary residing in W ash- ington, our legation in Belgium has been raised to the same rank, and has been made to include the Low Countries, with the approval of the permanent com- ments. ointed to both govern 4 fever the Executive Regarding the yellow remarked: “There has been an extraordinary in- crease in ye low fever during recent months in Vera Cruz. It assumed an alarm.ng character and threatened the health of other points which are in constant com- munication with that port. Nevertheless measures prescribed by the regulations of forced—have proved sufficient to ward off dangers and the epidemic has only extended itse f to Cordoba, owing to its pgoximity to Vera Cruz, its daily communication with that port and its climatic cond.tions. In other towns such as Merida, San Juan Bau- tista, Luguna and Fuxpam there have been cases that have not assumed local char- acter, and moreover, they have been spon- taneous. “The sanitation of the port of Vera Cruz, when it is once completed, w.ll doubtless tend directly to improve our healih con- ditions and will prevent in future sponta- neous development there of the terrible epidemic.

Unfortunately, the observations made have not responded to the hopes which were entertained in re- gard to the beneficial effect of that treat- ment.” The President noted the remarkable growth in exportations, notably of mineral products and the conrtinual and healthy augmentation of the manufacturing indus- The Federal telegraph service shows a marked increase, as also does the postoffice. The Federal revenues for the past fiscal year were estimated at $51,649,000, but rose to $59, 000,000.

Regarding the Yaqui outbreak the Presi- dent says the rebels have been defeated in various skirmishes, and it may now be ex- pected that small forees of troops will bring the revolt to an end, while the Mava revolt in Yucatan will also speedily be suppressed.

FACTS BEFORE DETECTIVES. STRONG HABIT OF WRITING THE NAME OF ANOTHER. Now in the Hands of the Police of London. Special Oorrespondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Sept. 16.—Not one, but several cases of forgery in which people belong- ing to the British aristocracy are impli- cated are engaging the attention of Eng- lish police authorities, Warrants have been issued for the arrest of a daughter of a British Ambassador representing his sovereign at a foreign court, and for the capture of at least three sons of peers of the realm. The habit of writing somebody else’s name has become prevalent among the up- per classes owing to the tnability of the old families to keep abreast of the pace set by the new rich: The very number of titled people exposed to charges of for- gery has apparently rendered this crime fashionable. The Amabassador’s daughter for whom a warrant has been issued is Mrs. Kingscote who a year ago was doing the honors o her father’s embassy at Madrid, pir at 2. e United States Among her victims are Lord Byron and Lord Burton, the latter the pro- prietor of the great Bass Brewery. She has been already taxed publicly by Sir George Lewis, Lord Burton’s lawyer, with having made a fraudulent use of his client’s name, A couple of years ago the son of Lord Haldon, destined to occupy his father’s seat in the House of Lords, confessed dur- ing a civil suit that he had forged the name of his wealthy mother to a promissory note. The money-lender who had discounted it brought suit against Lady Haldon for the amount—namely, $7500—and she refused tu pay on the ground that the signature was not hers. In her defense she cited her son, who admitted on cath that his mother was right, and that he had forged her signa- ture, on which extraordinary evidence judg- ment was given in favor of Lady Haldon, pense of her son's good name. If the voung nobleman avoided criminal proceasas it was because Ludy Haldon’s awyer was able to convince the authorities that the money-lender had been aware of the spurious indorsement when he dis- counted the bill at 40 per cent, and that he dic so to be placed in a position to exercise pressure upon the wealthy relatives of the forger. . Lord William Nevil, son of the Marquis of Abergavenny, brother-in-law of the Mur- rietta brothers, well known in New York, is undergoing a five years’ term of penal servitude for having forged the name of his friend, Capt. Clay, to au promissory note. Only four years ago Dr. Collins, medical officer of the Horse Guards, and the most fashionable ladies’ physician in London, was tried for forging the name of a com- rade, the rich Capt. Seiwyn. Capt. Selyn and the friends In whose hands he p'aced himself—Lord Walsingham and Sir Nigel Kingscote, Equerry of the Prince of fales—undertook to withhoid preceedings against Dr. Collins to permit him to continue his practice, and to retain his poe in society and his membership of the clubs on the understanding that he would leave Eng-and at the end of six months. When he declined to fulfil this agreement they caused his arrest. Another wel!-born officer of the Guards, Capt. Scott-Sanders, is now doing t!me for forging the name of Lord Landsborough. A year ago the London’ usurer, Jay, brought suit against Sir Tatton Sykes, wel] known in New York, for payment of prom- issory notes indorsed with his name. Sir Tatton refused to pay, stating that his signature had been forged. Yet in spite of this charge hanging over the head of Lady Sykes, she remains in Engalnd un- fashionab’e society. Her brother is married to Miss Livingstone of New York. Lady Gunning, after confessing in court that she had forged the name of her father and of other relatives, was sentenced to She is a member of the house of Churchill, of which the Duke of Mar'l- borough is the head. and the widow of the late Sir Henry Gunning. On the continent forgery among the titled is more prevalent than tn England. The fashion was_ set by a royal princess, Princess Louise of Coburg, daughter of the King of Belgium, who only escaped the penal consequences of forging the name of her younger aister, the widowed Crown Princess of Austria, by getting herself placed under nominal restraint in a lunatic asylum as mentally irresponsible. , It was but the other day, too, that the widowed Duchess of Bauffremont was con- victed by the Italian courts and sentenced to a term of imprisonment for forgery. NO TROUBLE ABOUT BERTHS. Transatlantic Traffic Heavy, but There Is Little Inconvenience. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright. 1899, by the Press Publishing Company. LONDON, Sept. 16.—Owing to the unpre- cedented number of American visitors in Europe this season the transatlantic ship companies are doing & record business. While it is undoubtedly true that several Americans experienced some difficulty in obtajning berths the report that numbers had been stranded in London was exag- gerated.

EMPEROR’S CHARGE WAS SILLY. It Was a Fine Sight, but Authorities Agree in Real Warfare It Would Have Meant Disaster. BERLIN, Sept. 16.—The army maneuvers this year are regarded as a mediocre suc- cess, owing to several causes, chiefly un- favorable weather. During four days of sham warfare in South Germany it rained in torrents. For one entire day the opera- tions had to be suspended, as the Emperor modified the plan of campaign. The roads part of the time were impassable and the condition of the troops was indescribable, though most of them found shelter, and the commissariat acquitted himself excellently. The maneuvers ended earlier than ar- ranged because of the intended visit of the Czar to Potsdam Thursday, which was sub- sequently abandoned. Thus Emperor Wil- liam has his preparations for this impor- tant visit for nothing. Aside from these untoward circumstances other features aroused serious criticism of the military value of these big maneuvers, in which three army corps, numbersing 9,000 men, par pates. The troops marched well, the nfantry covering, in spite of the weather, be:ng often knee deep in mud, from @ to 4) kNometers daily. But some of the com- manders made egregious blunders. Gen. Von Falkenhausen, commanding the Thir- teenth corps, got separated from the Four- teenth and the plan of campaign had to be licked into shape for the next morning. The Emperor’s dashing charge at the head of two cavalry divisicns ‘Vednesday was a fine sight. But ail the experts pres- ent agreed that such a chirs2 In actual war and under the same conditions would have lei to the complete annihilation of the whole cavalry. There was, nowever, the remarkable fact that the physical condition and rforale of the troops on both sides rema.ned in fine snape, in spite of the weather. Only a few cases of serious illness were reported. Experts assert that the new field artillery and automobiles were boch found :o be eas- ily transportable. Automobi'es hencefcrth will be regularly used in army transporta- tion. Some automobiles made during the night and over unknown and unfavorable roads from 8 to 70 miles without breaking down. Perhaps the most interesting feature cf the maneuvers was that the Fifteenth Corps, mainly recruited in Alsace, frater- nized sincereiy with the men of the Thir- teenth and Fourteenth Corps, who were from other parts of the cmpo're.

Her Dances Are Crowded and Her Cos. tumes Are All That Could Be Desired. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. ' (Copyright, 1899, by the Press Publishing Oo.) LONDON, Sept. 16.—Lady Curzon’s first Vice Rega] season at Simla has been bDril- Hantly successful Many people were afraid that with the rich American Vicereane and her rich American relations it would cost them more, or as much, to live in Simla than to come to England; but the seasop, while expensive at all times at Simla, has not been more so than usual. Lady Curzon was most popular socially and her fortnightly dances at the Vice Re- gal Lodge were always crowded. She has acquired quite a regal manner. In her dark evening frocks and damond tiara she looks very much iike Du Maurier’s pictures of the Duchess of Towers in his novel, ‘“Peter Jobetson.’”’ Among other big dances of the season were those of the Knights of the Bla k Heart and the Celestlials, both of which were attended by Lady Curzon and her two sisters, the Misses iter. The Knights of the Black Heart are sundry bachelors and gress w'dowers who have banded themselves together for the benefit of Sim- la society. Their ambition tis to give a big picnic at Annandale every season, to which the Viceroy and the whole of Simla are invited. and a dance at the Town Hall. On the latter occasion the Knights them- selves, the walls of the rooms and the ta- ble cloth and programmes are studies in black and scarlet.

On the first round, as had been anticl- mated,. Magee of the Field Club had Mc- tinnie four up. This was quite as_ it should be, for was not ‘“‘Mac” the mightiest golfer in these parts, and did not even the mention of his name str.ke terror into tne heart of his opponent? At least, such was his reputat.on. Tne surprise tnen of the audience may be readuy .magined when, on the completion of the finai round, it was announced that McKinnie, the Aigon- quinite, had actualiy “‘ha.ved" the match with his adversary, who learned the game in “au.d Scotia’ itseif. Every one was eager to congratulate the young man who had acquitted himself so creditably, and none were more s.nceré than Mr. Magee, who expressed himself in the highest terms in regard to the abiuiity of his match mate. The entire tournament was prolific in eurprises, however, for right upon the heels of this result came that of the Elting- Adams play in which the latter beat his to | widely known opponent in a total score of two up. This was difficult to believe, for j meat mother died shortly afterwards, andin the | iting is conside red one of the pillars of golf in the city and has often and well represented St. Louis abroad, while Adams is realiy a novice at the sport, having learnt the game no earlier than this sum- mer. He has a beautiful drive, strong and true, and this was, perhaps, more than any other thing, product.ve of his rattling good score—-107 for the two rounds, the best of the day. When the next couple tallied, again the Algonquins were found to have been vic- torious, by Alfred Annan having beaten Powe two up after having had all sorts of hard luck. Powe failed to play up to ex- pectations, white the younger Annan did better than it was thought he would. He lost two ho'es by his ball being accident- ally kicked by his caddy and losing another. Annan was especially strong on puts, one shot, on the fourth hole, being particularly noticeable, he holing his ball from a dis- tance of easily more than eighty yards. Throughout Annan played steadily, several times his golf equaling the ‘‘bogie,”’ which be it known, is another name for the record, and therefore to be spoken of, as is the bogie man, with fear and trembling. In these three matches, with the addition of Connor, who was pitted against Mark- ham, the visitors clear.y excelled their hosts, but in the ba ance the'r men were beaten, and beaten badly at that. Bissell, who was pa'red with Wilkinson, has a free ard easy swing that was telling in his lofts and drives. His fron play was quite as strong, and on the whole his game was the equal, if not the superior, of any of the afternoon. : Semple of the Field Club thhad the honor of beating his man, Jarvis, by the biggest score of the day, having him five up. But this was due rather to his opponent’s weak- ness than his own strength, for he topped the ball in quite a few strokes, thereby losing much distance. When his drives did go, however, they were straight and far, and it was no uncommon thing for him to gain as much as two strokes on one Fee. Thittemore won the rema'‘nin ate playing against J. P. Annan. Met ene re on the Aigonquin team succeeded in clear- ing the ditch on the first drive. ‘They did better on vhe second, but their error had been fatal, and it was irremediable Their score was not bad by any means and they point with pride to the fact that good of the order.

NUW YORK, Sept. 16.—Mark Hanna !s here. He came in from Europe on the American liner St. Louis’ to-day. Mr. Hanna has been abroad for nearly three months, much of his time being spent at Aix-le-Baines, in Germany, where he en- deavored to shake off an acute attack of muscitiar rheumatiem. “Well, I'm devilish glad to get back bome,” said the senator to the Post-Dis- patch correspondent, smiling, after he haa acked for the latest news and gossip and had iiquired with much display of feeling about the health of Vice-President Hobart. “The national campaign will open early mext June,.”’ said the senator. “Ihe con- vention will undoubtedly be held early in that month, and we will have our issues in Spape and ready for presentation by that me “The Philippine war will undoubtedly ve been concluded ere then, and if our Jemocratic friends see fit to make an issue out of the question of expansion, well and good. Let them go ahead. I should like to see this an issue in the forthcoming con- test. It would help to augment the ma- jority for McKinley's re-election. “I will say now, as I said shortly before left in June, that we cordially invite our emocratic-Populistic brethren to meet us on this expansion question. I know the American -y le weil enough to say that they will be loath to cast a vote against the flag. “In endeavoring to make expansion an issue the Democrats are appealing to the prejudices of the classes. n ~ A the support of the voters we appeal to their patriotism, not their prejudices. I as- sume that the Democrats will make their Hight along the lines pursued in the last campaign, with the addition of two issues, trusts and anti-expansion. “Silver, of course, is dead. “Bixteen to one was settled long ago, ana if it ever comes to life I shall be sreatiy surprised. Bryan will doubtless be he nominee. “I can’t see that we have any fault to find with this prospect,”. and then the sen- ator said something about Bryan being the easiest man to defeat. “‘Bryan endeavored to teach the people a few things at the lust, election, but as the final count of Votes showed they didn’t take well to him HB @ tutor. In 189 we were forced to cone uct a campaign of education. We won't yave to do this mext year. The people edyucated—they have been edu- know what is to their best in- terests and what is inimical to their pros- perity and happiness.”’ Thus far Mr. Hanna had fought shy of trust question. When it was broached deftly warded it off with a query or explanation about something else. Final- +4 the Senator said; ‘“‘Why is it that the epublican party is so frequently referred to as the party of trust? Why is it that Bryan and his followers are so pass‘onate- ly in love with this question as an issue? | l'll tell you. “The Democratic party is sadly in need of an issue. ney want @l leas. OMe Bui lank to stand on. The free silver plank as rotted away, and in making expansion the issue they would be skating on dan- gerously thin ice. “So it is,.they think they see an oppor- tunity to push the trust question to the front, and, by holding the Republican party responsibie for the growth of trusts, they hope to profit thereby. I want to repeat now one sentence that I said three months ago: “The trust question is in no sense political."” The truth of it must be appar- ent to every unbiased mind when the fact that Democrats and Republicans alike are stockholders in these great business com- Dinations. “The first truet ever organized in this country was a Democratic trust. I refer to the famous Flower trust, organized by the late Governor of New York. There is to- day a comprehensive law on our statute books designed to throttle unlawful and injurious combinations of capital. In that law we find embodied the judicial opinions of ch well-known men as Senator Hoar, ex-Senator Edmunds, Senator Vest and the Jate Senator George. This law—I mean the scope to keep every requirement of the situation whether or not it has been rigidly enforced I cannot say. “The Republicans are just as anxious to prevent the illegal and injurious massing of wealth as any political party, and I have no doubt that the next Republican platform will be explicit on this question. ke the hio platform, on trusts, as an instance of Dlican good faith. r. Hanna was asked about the reports of Mr. Hobart’s intention of retiring from the Vice-Presidential contest because of i/l- =a. ra seplies: “Now, t is a question I don’t Gare to talk about. I will say this, however, that nothing short of an earthquake or a grand national calamity can prevent Mr. Hobart’s renomination, providing he desires to con- tinue in public life.”’ When the correspondent mentioned Roose- velt’s name in connection with the Vice- residency, the Senator smiled and said would like to be excused on this point, en ey a.~ye™ Was asked. “Certain as the day follows the ni e replied the senator. Mr. Hanna was oe if he cared to say anything about the Carter court-martial case. “f cannot say anything because I do not know anything about it,” he replied. ‘This is a matter in which I have taken no interest what- a od ig an executive, not a legisiative alr. meson, be scated?”’ “Really, am not capable of expre an intelligent opinion on this. I oom wever, that the case will be disposed of soon after Congress meets."' “WwW hat of the prospects in Kentucky?” My information is that the Repubiicans have a good chance to win. The politica! machinery is in the hands of the other vod = this will pandicap the Repub- cans, but even at that, mach litics do not always win.”’ ine poiltic: “The Ohio campaign, which will begin in @arnest next week, will take up much of my time before election day. I can see no reason to change my prediction as from three months ago of the election of Judge Nash. My information {s that every- thing is favorable to Republican success, and as Nash is one of the strongest men that could have been named, and has bak of him the support of the National Admin- istration, he will poll a very heavy vo:e throughout the State. I see the Democrats have nomina McLean (this with a smile) and it looks as though the Democrats ex t to wax fat on the contents of the Mc- barrel.

Louls. He has set aside Fri- day nights as ‘“‘Wagner nights,”’ when, on the programme, only Wagner numbers will anpeae. Of-course, for encores, other thin will be played, but the printed lists will show nothing except what carries ner signature. In this way, Mr. Innes hopes to have the pleasure of playing on that night at least to the most discriminating and critical music-lovers in the city. And, by the way, he can play Wagner as no other brass band on earth can. e has s0 arranged his instruments and ‘his men that he gets the most delicate reed tones. and the effects he produces would deceive the expert who did not See that he was before a brass band and not an orchestra. How he does it—but that is another story. Col. Willlam F. Cody and his Wild West are booked for a week in St. Louis in Oc- tober. The old time “Buffalo Bill’ will have all the features of his former show, and besides, inetead of the attack on the stage coach that has been a standby for years, he will put on the representation of the. battle of San Juan Hill. TO-DAY'S OPENINGS. Several years ago—maybe it was not s0 long—there was to be a prize fight out in wilds of the Southwest. A crowd of Louis sports wanted to see it. They hired a special car and went. Gus Thomas, Playwright, was in town at the time. He was a friend of some of the men of the special car, and they asked him if he wouldn’t take a trip with them. He did. And to this day there are folks who will not believe that Gus Thomas did not see .: a a prize fight. vals Ny eis That’s one reason why Thomas wrote ARIZONA | Ms Wit ’ a ‘YS ys amt Se ey A sf “Arizona,’’ which opens at the Olympic to- A “THE; ati HV ina 4 YQ. Rc See la ; =. iain day. There were other reasons, of course, " . : ; m S are apparent when one sees e ay. i OLYMPIC. , qr This opening will really be the important H, event of the new season so far. Anything , which comes from the pen of the talented author of “Alabama’’and “In Mizzoura’’de- mands and is accorded friendly and serious consideration by the American public. Mr. Thomas has, more than any other writer, laid the foundation and lower courses for that American drama which will one day develop into a most imposing institution. Arizona,’’ as the name implies, is a play which has its ecenes, characters and inci- dents placed in the picturesque far South- west. The characters of the play comprise sturdy ranchtnen and cowboys, the brisk, alert women of the pioneer generation and their dainty, graceful, yet strong and self- reliant daughters—types of that American girl over whom the whole world has come to wonder and admire—officers and soldiers, Mexicans and Chinese, fair samples of the heterogeneous community which Mr. (hom- as has chosen to utilize in the way of ma- terial. That “Arizona’’ will be richly staged and well acted is guaranteed by the names of the artists who painted the scenes from actual sketches in the Territory of Arizona, ' and the actors whom Mr. Thomas has chosen personally for the principal roles of his piece. The scenes of acts and Iy. “Canby’s Ranch,’’ near Fort Grant in the Aravaipa Valley, were painted by Walter Burridge from sketches specially made by him in Arizona, The drawing room at Fort Grant, act Il., and the dining room at Canby’s ranch were painted by John Faust from actual rooms at the ranch and mili- tary vost. The decorations, costumes and accouterments were all chosen and 4ar- ranged by Frederick Remington, the artist of the ‘‘Man and the Horse.” The principal actors and actresses en- gaged for the production of “Arizona” are Vincent Serrano, Theodore Roberts, George Nash, Edwin Holt, Edgar Selwyn, Maicolm Gunn, Lionel Barrymore, Albert Bruning, Stephen French, Sidney Ainsworth, Menifee Johnston, Miss Eleanor Robson, Miss Grace Henderson, Miss Adora An- drews, Miss Ellen Cummings and Miss Genevra Ingersoll. Mathews and Bulger are to be at the Olympic next Sunday. Lt 4 ’ ie iL ae —_ LADIES OF ST. LOUIS AND VICINITY ARE CORDIALL INVITED TO ATTEND OUR CRAND DISPLAY OF .

He looked at every fat man in the house, be- cause he felt syre that it must come from one of them. ‘At last he spied the man, but, instead of being fat, he was almost tiny in build, shriveled and painfully lean. “It was the greatest surprise of my life,” said Hatch. “I felt sure that the fellow with that laugh, which stood out above all the uproar of applause, must be a giant, and I was afraid he was guying me. But when I saw him—ye gods! . ‘I «ent the man a complimentary, just to see him. again, and I am so stuck on his hiccough-like laugh and the roar. with which he finishes it that I think I'l] use it in a play some time.’”’ -———_—_— Ladies’ Crepon Dress Skirts, silk and wool mixtures, bell shape, lace back, corduroy binding, worth $6.00; " Opening Pric®....cscesscccscese Siliee hae ay @ OD POISON.

Sept. 18.—Down itn J i. Skinch Painter, who took a solemn vow hneariy 60 vears ago that he would never work. He declared the belief that the world ewes a living to everyone brought into It, and that labor is useless sin. This remark- ahce character ts 70 years old. In his own case, he has made positiye demonstration of his theory, for he has never toiled. Yet, he Itves in absolute contentment and has ihe natural happiness of the early day In- dians as pictured tn story books. He says he has never suffered from hunger, has never felt the need of money, and has never weakened in his determination to abstain from labor. H has literally fished, hunted and fiddled his way through the world Skinch Painter's home is primitive. His house—if it may be called a house—is a hole in the side of the mountain, made there by nature. The roof, one end and the two sides. are of solid rock. The open end—the ‘‘mouth,” Skinch calls it—looks out upon a deep gorge. Fallen trees cover the “mouth” with the exception of just enough space for the old mountainer to crawl through. A boulder removed from the top of this projecting cavern, makes a hole through which a stove pipe pro- trudes. Around the pipe a quantity of mud has been plastered. There is a solid rock floor, and a notable absence of the damp- ness usually encountered in such places. But Skinch is at home very littie. rhe greater part of his time ts rem in the mountains, where, with his old-fashioned rifle. this anti-labor apostie filis his larder with venison, wild hog, quail, turkey, squir- rel and other game.

LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT. Catholic Clergyman Forwards ters and Photographs to the Executive Mansion. Let- Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 16.—The long smouldering resentment of Roman Cath- olics throughout the United States at the alleged outraga2s upon Catholic Churches in the Philippines has been brought acute- ly to the attention of the President. The Rev. Dr. Willidn F. McGinnis, president of the Metropolitan Truth Scciety, has for- warded to the Presijent direct a strong protest, in which he proncuncedly contra- aicts Prof. Schurman, who says that no evidence of such abuses can be found or produced. This communication reached the executive mansiven to-day. The Metropolitan Truth Society was or- ganized two years azo, but now has branches all over the United States. Its object is to cvrrect misapprehensions of doctrine or to combat erroneous state- ments of alleged fact against the Cath- olic Church, its discipline or practice. For some time its members have been dili- gently gathering and clagsifying all evi- dence concerning the alleged desecrations and outrages upon the churches in the Philippines and the thefts of priestly vest- ments and sacred vessels, and their use in insulting and indecent ways. ‘They have now a great mass of data carefully ar- ranged and fully authenticated. — ae ———————— Sept. 9.—Reported that a great corporation is being formed to control all the trolley sys- tems in the world.

Beside this representation to President McKinley, it-is intended to lay the whole matter before the Board of Catholic Arch- bishops, which meets at the Catholic Uni- versity here October 12. Dr. McGinnis’ letter to the President is in part as follows: “Such indignation is based, first, upon newspaper reports and comments thereon; second, upon private letters from soldiers who have served or are serving now in Philippines; third, from sacred vessels sent by United States soldiers to this country and publicly exhibited in New York and other cities; fourth, upon the accompanying copy of Collier's Weekly, giving a photo- graph of United States soldiers in the very act of desecrating an altar in a church by using it as a field telegraph station, one of whom is furthermore represented as pos- ing for the photograph cigar in hand. “Direct evidence is supplied both by above ‘mentioned photgraph and by the following extract from a letter written by Robert H. Knight, Company D, Twelfth United States Infantry, which is one of many received and which we believe is thoroughly re- liable: “*The worst of all is in the ruins of Guadelupe Church, tn the vaults where the dead are buried.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—The World prints the following article to-morrow, under heading, “The Man.” In one way only can the Democratic party e.ect the next President. This is by nominating a man for whom every Demo- crat will vote. No man, now conspicuous as a possible Democratic candidate, meets this requirement, for everyone, however ad- mirable otherwise, is part of some grand scheme, or is committed to the propagation of some theory upon which there is ir- | reconcilable party division. The need of the hour is a name—not an ambition; a name not @ theory. And the de es man is at hand. He is a man for whom every Democrat will vote as wel] as every Republican not bound to the ma- chine, a man for whom even Bryan might stand aside with honor and advantage to himself. He is one of the best examples of American manhood known in our his- tory; a man of the supreme simplicity that is part of every lofty character; qualified to perceive all the obligations of a great patriotic duty and with courage to fulfill them; a man upright, earnest, sincere and a hero. We do not Know what his party affiliations are. We know that there is but one really living, burning Issue of principle that to-day concerns the American people, that of imperialism and*Europeanism. and that in that issue he is on the side of jus- tice, freedom and true Americanism. t This man is one whom the development of our national life has brought forth fram obscurity at this crisis. He cannot be even nominated if not by the Democratic party, and that party should recognize the fact and constitute itself the organ of the nation to put him in the supreme p.ace.

WILL DISCHARGE 3000 MEN. | Prices, of Course, Will Not Be Low- ered, Because the Combine Does Not See How to Do It. PITTSBURG, Sept. 15,—Rival coal opera- tors and shippers are happy. They expect to “‘make ends meet’ after the combine , known as the Monongahela River Coal & | Coke Co., gets in operation, an event which ! is to take piace within the next two weeks. They have compla.ned for many years chat they have been in the business sole.y from philanthropic motives, as there were no profits under present conditions for several years—that they simply exchanged one qaol- | lar for another, and Kept their mines run- }' ning so that their employes could keep the wolf from the door and provide bread for their fam.lies. Some of g@.em made a lit- tie money, they admit, but it did not net them 6 per cent by a long shot, at ieast, ac- cording to the word of Capt. John Moren, the well known Water street operator. “It's a mighty good investment nowadays that pays 6 per cent,”’ sa:d he, “‘if coal men were making this they wou.d not combine, for the sole reason the combinatien Was made was ‘to reduce expenses, sntroduce some sensible, harmonious methods of hand- ling and selling our product, and tnus get a fair return on our investment. However, I will not tell you how much we expect to make, for that is unbusinesslike. At any rate, we will get 6 per cent.” t Capt. Addison Lysie of the Lysle Coal Company (now part of the trust), a vet- eran river coal operator, and one of the chief promoters of the combination, ex- plained in a general way how the new concern expects to reap some profit. Our operating expenses wiil be much lower, of course,” said he. “The new comb:ne in- cludes every river coal operator and ship- per between the upper Monongahela River and New Orleans. The value of the prop- erty is about $40,000,000. That is the capital of the company—$30,000,000 in stock and $10,- 000,000 In bonds. Of course, we will dispenge with a whole army of bookkeepers, cierks, salesmen and other employes. One set of bookkeepers under the new conditions will do the work of ten under the old regime. The saving in salaries and expenses in salesmen alone will be immense. I suppose nearly 3000 people will be hunting new jobs as the result of the combine, but, of , course, that is a thing we cannot help. We must make a reasonable return on our money, and for the last few years we have not been doing this. We will avoid the ruinous, cut-throat competition § that worked such havoc when we were al] in- dependent. Of late years shippers have sent coal down to New Orleans and other down-river ports, where it would often lie for months, sometimes a year or more. It was shipped ahead of demand and there was no market for it. Of course, this was tremendously expensive, for a; tow of barges lying useless for a year eats up money. Besides, it is also a very risky business. Under the new combine we will ship just enough coal to supply the demand and get a reasonable price for it. Coal is pretty cheap now. No, I don’t believe the price will be lowered. It is as low as it should be In fact, I don’t know what wil! be done as to prices. The combine has not been completed. We will not choose officers until the 2ist of this month, then we can state definitely what will be done. : I don’t know whether prices will be raised or not. Anyway, it is premature to talk about our plans at present.’’ Capt. Lyale fur‘her explained that much saving would be brought about by curtsil- ing the number of tuwboats now on the rivers. It has been the custom to “iow” coal down the river in small quantities, a half or quarter “ tow,” or a similar ton- naze. If a company had some coal to taks out which was not enough to make a fu!! tow—1l14 or 16 coal boats or barges—they sent a tug with it anyway. Under the new regime only full tows will be taken out, Capt. Lysle says, and the expenses of keep- ing up extra towboats and crews besides fuel and other incidentals, wiil be eliminat- ed. When asked what would be done with the boats thus laid off, the operator said they could easily be sold on the Western rivers, where towboats are in eat de- mand. When the river coal combine goes ‘nto effect this month it is highly proba- ble that some of the towboats around these “digg'n’s’’ will be sold out west cr chopped up for lumber or kindling. | About 60,000,000 tons of coal are handled yearly by the companies embraced in the combine. But the cutting down of the pay roll, or, in other words, discharging some- trust expects to save $25,000 a week. is quite an item, the promoters say. The Pittsburg Coal Co., the railway coal trust, as stated before in the Leader, went into effect the Ist of this month, Almost their first act was to raise the who'esile price of coal % cents a ton. ‘The price at the mine is now $1.10. Incidentally, aa peo- le are painfully aware, the retail price has umped 2 cents a bushel. J. C. Dysart of the Chartiers Block Coal Co., a part of the railway coal octupus, says that the arranging of a uniform price was the important matter of the trust. “For months we have made no money, said he, ‘“‘we have simply exchanged one Now we expect to make a living out of our business.”’ The Pittsburg Coal Co. fs capitalized at stock, and is chartered under the laws of New Jersey. Mr. Dysart says all the com- get this rate was the sole purpose of form- ing the combine. The combination includes practically all the coal operators: in West- ern Pennsylvania, or those who ship their product by rail. The railway coal trust has no connection with the river coal octupus whatever, the promoters affirm, although it will be a difficult matter to convince the general public that there is not some mu- tual understanding. The Pennsylvania Coal Company was formed with a charter obtained at Harrisburg, so that the op- erators could hold property in this State. Under the iaw a foreign corporation cannot hold more than $100 worth of property in this State. SAMPSON REACHES NEW YORK. Ships of the North Atlantic Squadron Soon to Be Dry-Docked.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 16.—As the Franco-Prussian war was necessary for the union of the States of Germany, so in the op-nion of one loyal citizen of the United States the Spanish-American war has Crawn the North and South more firmly to- gether. Mr. Phares Beil, one of Florida's prominent men, is deeply interested in the building of a soldier’s home, which shall be for Union as well as Confederate yet- crans. To this end Mr. Bell offers to donate 3% acres of land in Sumter County and suffi- client stone for all of the buildings. He has persuaded the commise.oners of Sum- ter County to give 80 acres in addition, and has enlisted the interest of Florida's Congressmen in the project, which will in- sure the matter being brought to a con- clusion during the next session, This is by no means a new idea with Mr. Bell. He has brought the eubject to the notice’ of many Northerners as well as Southerners, and holds promises of a number of handsome subscriptions payab.e when the National Government has accept- ed the land and provided for the mainten- ance of the home. In speaking of hig long-cherished pian yesterday, Mr Bell said: ‘TT am an old soidier myeelf and fought in the Union Army. Since the war I have prospered and own a good deal of property in Sumter County. “Il want to show my love for the s0l- d:ers and comrades by whose side I fought, by giving this tract of land, ecanng my orange grove, for a so.diers’ home. ince the Spanish-American war has removed all remaining lines of division between the North and the South; since they have vied with one another in the.r devotion to the stars and stripes, I have decided that this home shall be open to both Union and Con- federate veterans, in recognition of a unit- ed country and a peop.e knit together in the bonds of a common interest and under one flag. “In this I have no personal or polit:cal interest.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—One of the recent trusts, incorporated under the laws of New Jersey, is in trouble, and has gone into the hands of a receiver. The American Woodworking Machine Co. was incorporated late in 1897, with a capital of $4,000,000, besides an authorized ‘bond Is- sue of $2,000,000. It has plants in many ates. For a time all went well, but recently there has been much ta.ik in the trade to the effect that matters were not working hamoniously. Now the secretary and treas- urer, J. E.

The Cubes of Ore Lie Like Tiled Floors in a Bed Three Miles Long and Five Hundred Feet Wide. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ST. JOHNS, Nefoundland, Sept. 16—One of the most remarkable tron mines in the wor.d has been purchased recently by the Whitney Syndicate for $1,000,000. Thig is the Hematite Iron Deposit of Bell Island, New- foundland, where the syndicate is estab- lishing a great emelting enterprise. The bed, or quarry, contains 28,000,000 tons of ore, underlying a surface deposit of two feet of soil. When this has been uncovered @ vast terrace of the metal, 00 feet wide and 3 miles long will be ex- posed, It is the natural formation of the ore, however, which is most remarkable. It is in the form of cubes, a few inches in dimensions. These cubes lie in perfectly regular, horizontal order, like a tiled floor. The line of juncture is as clearly marked as the cement in a laid floor or wall. The appearance euggests the work ef a skilled mecnognic. The lateral view shows the 8 regular order of tier upon tier deep into the earth. Two mues distance from the mine’ is a sheltered cove, where a pier has been con- structed. At the end of this pier the water is 234 feet deep. The cove ig a structure of southern pine, 60 feet square anf 90 feet high. It contains 10 *kets, each with a Capacity of 200 tons of ore. The outlet is a moveable chute, which leads directiy to the ship’s hold. The ore is conveyed io the cove by @ tramway, worked by an endless cable. The 10 pockete can be emptied in two hours. On the shore behind Is a reser- voir with a capacity of 10,000 tons. This is connected with the pier by a series of au- tomatic hoppers, which dump directly into the ship’s ho.d. The output of the mine is 200 tone a day, and a ship of that capacity is usuaily loaded daily. But all records were broken last week when 6300 tons were loaded into the steamer Claudius in seven and one-half hours. Machinery and mechanical devices have so minimized labor that the cost of mining and loading the ore is only 2 cents per ton. The cost of transporting it to Sydney, ‘the site of the proposed smelt! works is 2% cents more. his, at the market prices, secures a profit of at least $1 a ton. The patna output for this year is 300,000 one Next year the syndicate proposes to in- crease the output to 1,200, tons, and the present working force of 500 men to . A new plier of similar capacity to the one now in use will be bullt and another sec- tion of the ore will be uncovered to feed it. LITTLE TRUST IN MILITIA. London Press Fears That It Cannot Protect Esquimalt. LONDON, Sept. 16.—Referring to a Hall- fax dispatch regarding the strengthenins of the Esquimalt garrison, the Globe says itis gratifying that Esquimalt is beginning to receive the appreciation as a strategical position to which it is entitled, as “‘one of those imperial points of vantage which have suffered from systematic neglect.”’ The eere eays that a couple of years ago a J@.'tish engineer officer was sent to Esquima.t to invest.gate the place and that he saw the futility of Ai ag beg oom the fortifications unless manned by thor- oughly efficient troops. ‘The Canadian militia,” says the Globe, ‘is as ueeful as any such force Is for local purposes, but, only un'ess they receive suf- ficient pele ay in gunnery, are they to be trusted with the cuetody of such a valuable strategical position?’’ MR.

A sec- tion of the Irish party has offéred him one of their sufe seats at the next election. Mr. Harvey will not make a decision until he returns from his forthcoming visit to America. He has been on intimate terms with the leaders of the various sections while in Ireland and he says to @ repre- sentative of the Associated Press: “T beleve the prospects are good for a reunion of all the elements, once more presenting a practically solid Irish front against English conservatism.” MERELY A POLITICAL DODGE.

SUNDAY MORNING—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—SEPTEMBER 17, 1499 — in ~~ SUBSCRBNG TO THE FAIR FUND, Railroads Kdeping the Prom- ises Made Gov. Francis. ALL GREAT WEST INTERESTED. A LETTER WHICH SHOWS THE SENTIMENT IN OTHER STATES. Weather Now More Prcpitious and the Work of Canvassing in All Lines Is Being Rapidly Pushed. ————- le A marked improvement is reperted in the condition of the World's Fair fund over that of a week ago. One big railroad sub- Bcription of $35,000 was actually received— that of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas, for Which President Rouse signed himself. This was the full amount asked by the commit- tee on transportation interests, and its re- ceipt was most gratifying to those who have worked so hard for it. Another big railroad has as good as subscribed, but as the signed biank was not in the mail re- celved yesterday, the committee has not entered it on its books as yet. This is also for $35,000. Every day last week there was satisfac- tory progress made in the railread sub- Scription efforts, and the committee was particularly gratified that before the week closed it could give this substantial evi- Gence of what it had done. Encouraging reports from the other transportation interests were received Sat- urday, and it looks now as if the e8Stimates made for this committee would be ex- ceeded. With the return to the city of several of the most atcive of the fair workers, there has been a marked activity all along the line, and the results are expected to ma- terlalize before the end of the month in the way of a large increase in the actual subscriptions recorded. The weather is also in the fair’s favor, and the feeling about headquarters yesterday was much better than it has been for some time. Interest in the great exposition from out- side the State ie increasing and becomes the more manifest with the receipt of near- ly every mail. Offers of assistance are many, but it is the policy of the manage- ment to adhere to that of the Finance Committee in this respect, and this is not to canvass for any subscriptions beyond St. Louls and ite immediate vicinity, at least until tke field has been thoroughly one over here. Then some of the many ind offers may be accepted. In several af the Louisiana Purchase States funds fuxiliary to the main one will be raised. One of the most interesting outside com- munications received during the week was from Mr. G. Pitman Smith, who, writing from Montgomery, Mo., to Gov. Francis, says: “Everyone here takes it for granted the big fair of 1903 le an aasured success. ltigeg must be, for St. Louls and Missouri would held back only for two or three signatures, be in a humiliating position if it were not. Joe Barrett of the chairman of this sub-committee, no satisfactory results were obtained, althougn most of the canvassing was in the outlying with reference to ft. At Denver I heard the fair discussed a great deal, and some peo- ple out there are suggesting that ‘The Golden Girl’ be sent to 8t. uis in 1908 instead of to Pare next year. I urged the Colorado people to change the figure and make it a pair of girls, one gold, the other ellver, standing hand in hand, looking tow- ards the setting sun as the land of the precious metals, and then to send -it to us. It is a fact that half the population of the West has planned a visit to ola friends and kinfolks back East in 163 via St. Lou's.” ' The chairman of one of the ealoon e«uDb- committees reported about $3000 additional subscriptions on his list yesterday, but as the signatures were not turned in for filing no claim ‘¢ made for them on the books. The following additional signatures for the saloon interest were, however, re- ceived Friday and yesterday: Fellbauer Bros Oaaper H, : George A, Vaccarezza ...... «++s as bane dence Victor M. Lingenbrink Mr. Edward Walsh, chairman of the reor- ganized Committee on Glass and Kindred Interests, has already accomplished exceed- ingly good results. He has increased the total to $12,430, exclusive of a signature for an increased subscription to the extent of $2000, which he hopes to have changed to before final reporting. Additional glass subscriptions received yesterday: Other & Jeude Additional cigars George Fehner Additional contractors— J. DD. Fitz Gibbon Additional city officials: Ed J. Bernoudy The Building Trades Council is continuing its good work, and almost every week an additional union is heard from, This week's subscription is from the Laborers’ Protective and Benevolent Associa- tion of Hed Carriers, No 2 by Louis Schmidt, president Joseph Giedemann The following partial yesterday from the local freight the Terminal Railway Association, enth and Paplar: .

Additional dyers and cleaners— Other subscription received Harry ©. Vaughn Union Loan, Storage and Mercantile Co The actual increase in signed subscrip- tions indexed and deposited for safe-keep- ing during the weck was about $60,000, but this does not adequately represent the work of the week, as the fund was increased a mach larger eum. As already mentioned there are about $3000 of signatures out on one blank. The same condition prevails in regard to a large number~«of interests. One of the first houses called upofl this week by the revised Committee on Paint, Vil and Drug Trades, reported that he had already signed for $00. An investigation proved that his signature is in the hands of a chalr- man of a sub-committee, who is awaiting the return of officials in other houses in the same line. More than 200 calls were made on grocers during the week, but ow- ing to the absence from the city yesterday blanks were turned in, lt is known that districts, where very large subscriptions are not expected. No returns have yet been received from East St. Louis, where Mayor Stephens and other friends of the Fair have organized for concerted effort and haves made progress.

He is expected to call a meeting shortly to bring im all reports and close up the work. A canvass is being com- menced among members of the rea! estate agents’ fraternity, who have not subscribed. it is a singular fact ahd one that was lost sight of until the directory was compared with the subscription list, that although the real estate agents subscribed 40 per cent above their apportionment, the amount was made up by a comparative few and that there are still quite an army of agents who have not subscribea at all, It is expected that at least $50,000 can be obtained during the current month from real estate own- ers, inclusive of a number of subscriptions already received, but not handed in. A plan was presented to the committee this week whereby it is believed an ad- ditional $500,000 can be raised among small property holders, and it is possible this plan may be taken up. The man presenting it offers tO assume the bulk of the labor in its carrying out, and he has been very successful in all World’s Fair work he has undertaken. Owing to the large area to be covered, Judge Wolff, Secretary of the St. Louie County Committee, is experiencing great difficulty in getting his blanks cloeed up to date. No further report was received from him last week, and the total to the credit of the county in the official ledgers is still a little less than $10,000. It is known that the actual signatures are in excese of $15,000, and they will probably -reach $20,000 if not $25,000. The committee in charge of this branch of the work explains the re- sults would have been much larger but for the fact that so many of the wealthy resi- dents in the county subscribed on blanks - connection with their business in the city. Mr. Louis Schaeffer and Mr. Nat Wetzel are about to take up a vigorous canvass among butchers and market gardeners. This work could not possibly be done durin the heated term, owing to the special conditions of the trade. Mr. C. H. Huttig, Chairman of the Com- mittee on Commercial Agencies, has prom- iges of large subscriptions from the two principal companies engaged in this busi- ness in St. Louis. Mr. M. Shoenberg does not consider his canvass of the retail] cloth- ing interest approximately complete. Be- fore the fund is closed a further canvases will be made of the hotels, which so far are only credited with $67,400, 40 per cent of which was signed for by one house. In view of the public spirit and enter- prise of the hotel proprietors in regard to all propositions involving an influx of visit- ors to the city, the committee is confident that the total from this line can be easily increased, at least, to a six-figure total. The first subscription is yet to be received from an ice merchant, and, although from time to time, appeals have been made for volunteers to canvass thie line, and some have come forward for the purpose, no one has yet succeeded in interesting anyone connected with this business. No sub- scriptions have yet been recelved from either steamboat lines or from safe manu- ating several thousand dolars, and this is There is from $10,(00 to $15,000 signed up for “While out West during the summer Ij] the Implement and Vehicle Board of Trade, heard it talked of everywhere as a fixed @yent, and it was remarkable how many fians and future arrangements are dac.ed but not reported at the office. ‘The reor- ganized committee on this interest is a large one, with Mr. J.

Rauchenstein, president of the St. Louis County Agricultural and Mechanical Seciety, stated to a Post-Dispatch reporter Saturday that, judging from present indi- cations, the fair that has just ended marks the conclusion of the annual event, which at one time was a pride to the county. He stated that the attendarce at the last fair was not what had been expected and that there were many other disparaging circumstances militating against a repeti- tion of the county exhibition. The St. Louls County Fair is given under the auspices of the County Agricultural and Mechanical Society. It has been held annually for the past 18 years. Of late years there has been a marked falling off in the attendance and the association be- came involved in debt. So great were the incumbrances that at the last fair held at Dwyer Station the association was unable to award any premiums and ealled on mer- chants and other business men for special prizes. There was a liberal response, but the inducement was not sufficient to en- courage any great amount of competition. President Rauchenstein said Saturday that the last fair had succeeded in defray- ing the expenses, but the returns had fallen short of expectations. He says the ques- tion whether the next fair is held depends almost entirely on the Lindell Railway Co. If the company will extend its Clayton and Forest Park lines to Dwyer Station the probabilities are the association will make a renewed effort to continue the county fair as a permanent annual event. If the exten- sion is not made it is almost certain the enterprise will be entirely abandoned. The Lindell road promised to have its Clayton and Forest Park line extended to the fair grounds by the time for the opening of the last fair, but the promise was not ful- filled and there are many who Delieve the road does not intend to build the line any further. The present means of reaching the fair grounds are arduous. After making sev- eral changes of street cars it is necessary to ride about a mile in a hack over a rough rock road. THE DES PERES ORPHAN HOME. Its Grand Annual Festival Will Be Held To-Day. The annual festival of the Des Peres Or- phan Home will be held to-day. This is a great event each year for the children in- mates of the institution and they look for- ward to it for months in advance with the greatest expeotancy. The religious services will be conducted by Rev. Wiesler, pastor of the German Lu- theran Church at Des Peres. Music will be furnished by na brass band from 8t. Louis and the Des Peres Singing Societ of the finest vocal organizations in . Louis County. The teachers of the home have spent gev- | eral weeks training the children in fahcy drills, songs, tableaux and other exercises. —————— 2 ~- must succumb’to.

But homehow I couldn’t rid my- @elt of the idea that I was “missing some- ? thing,” and so I packed up my bathrobe my tortoise-shell comb and betook my- to the seashore. Always, of course, to repent too late. This year I fell again into the same error. But I fancy that this will be the last—the very last time. I have been told at various times, au-ing my career, that St. Louis was the worst place for gossip in the United States. Poor St. Louis! If you but knew! The only subject that was deemed worthy of discussion among St. Louisans at Nar- fagansett Pier was the life of a well-known St. Louis woman, who has been “acting wp” during her absence from home. Her m, every movement was watched and criticised > @pd gossipped over and diesected until the eh _ gray of the woman's character became Vv lly streaked with sooty blackness, and #he finally left the resort with, as she her- self sald, “not a shred of reputation left.” At Jamestown and Newport one might ex- pect the ekies to fall before hearing a kind or charitable word spoken of man, woman or child. All beautiful women were “rapid,” all people of wealth were nouveaux riches,”” all widows were “questionable” and as for the girl who was unfortunate enough to be popular— well, life simply Wwasent wcrth living for her. Men aione were exempt from criticism—there were fo00 few in evidence, and of those fewer who were eligible. Up North, matters were in much the same ghape.

All the parishes of the city will join forces to make it a grand success. The Sisters of the Good Shepherd number among their best friends many Protestants of various denomina- tions, who have signified their willingness to assist in the good cause. The work of the Good Shepherd S.sters appeais to Cath- olic and Protestant alike, for in their great charity no distinction is made of nationai- ay sae creed. They extend a helping hand to ail. There are at present over four hundred inmates in the Convent of the Good Shep- herd. The mere question of food and clothing for this small army is a problem indeed. It is confidently hoped that their efforts and those of the kind friends aiding them will meet with generous assistance. Miss Evelyn Elsie January, the only daughter of the late W. W. and Mrs. T. iB.

N A LETTER written by a St. Louis | man, who is traveling in Europe, to a friend at home, we have the fol- lowing news: “Frankfurt-on-the-Main—At present I am stopping with a party of friends here in Frankfart, where everything has been in gala attire since Goethe's ome hundred and fiftieth anniversary, but in a day or two I am going on to Vienna for a couple of weeks. I want to study the cafes there—I have heard so muc about them, “I don’t ever remember of having met so many St. Louis people abroad before, But then this is my first trip, and that may account for it. You don’t know how good I felt when I saw a familiar face yesterday as 1 was walking out of the hotel. It was Ed Hay, who came on from England with his sister to attend the Goethe celebration. I saw a great deal of them several weeks ago, when we were all in London, and had the jolliest sort of a time. Miss Hay’s beauty certainl#™ akes a great hulla-baloo wherever she goes. Early in August we made up a party and coached all through the superb English lake dis- trict. We had with us three English girls with their mamma,-a real live Lord and a tee of young fellows from Patter- dale. t was a thoroughly congenial party, even if most of it was English, and before we returned to London the entire crowd had lost their heads and hearts over Miss ay. The real live Lord afterwards tried to persuade Ed Hay and Miss Clara to visit him at his country place, near Ches- ter, but they declined with thanks. He was such a lad-Lord, you know. When we got back to dear old Lunnon we t Nat Pwing, and maybe he didn’t give us a swell dinner one night. Well. I wonder! Flowers, champagne, silver candelabra and all the other trimmings, by gum. Lords and ladies and things sat all round. Most of the women were loaded down with dia- monds and the men with fizz. It was in the hotel, you know, and at a table near ours another dinner was being given in honor of the Earl and Lady of Craven. A young New Yorker whom Ewing knew was in their party, and the two persisted in exchanging their characteristic repartee. Once the other fellow turned in his chair and said in a low undertone: **You needn't book so proud, Nat Ewing— just look at me, sitting next to a baronet. And we've got a live duchess at our table, too!’ ‘‘Ewing never chanzed a muscle, but quick as a flash nodded his head teward Miss Hay and answered: “*That’s nothing. We have a queen at ours.’ “And so we were introduced, all hands round, and wound up the evening delight- fully. Lady Craven !s quite pretty and awfully young-looking, but she loads her- self down with jewels to such an extent that she looks like a lighted Christmas tree. ‘“‘A few days after the dinner party epi- sode, I left for Paris and my good luck followed me. Almost the first American I saw in that wild city was Mrs. Joe Hayes, who has been knocking about over here for the past year with her children. She was very kind to me and we had several dandy home talks.

OTHER NEGOTIATIONS ARE ON. Auction Sales Coming—Agents’ Re- ports of Sales—Leading Trans- fers—Miscellaneous Notes. The most important transaction in real estate circles during the past week was the sale of the property, 813 Washington ave- nue, for $73,000. It consists of a six-story building, renting for $4600 per year, situated on a lot 29x16b0 feet, on the north side of Washington avenue, 122 feet west of Kighth street. grantors were the testament- ary trustees of Anne » Gawtry, and others, of New York, whoee attorney in this city is Hon. John G. Priest. The latter was represented by Mr. Henry Hiemenz, Jr. The title sed to Frank J. Serviere, of this city. The property is well located, as those know who are familiar with re- cent movements on Washington avenue, for a steady increase in value as well as a steady income, Mr. Samuel Bowman repre- sented the purchaser, who was John B. eet to whom the title passed by a later eed, There were several] other good transac- tions last week, as will be seen by a refer- ence to the leading transfers given beiow. And there are other and larger deals now under negotiation, and liable to be closed any day. The public need not be surprised to hear of two heavy transfers of central business property within the next 10 days. Now Is Your Chance to Buy a Lot. An auction sale to be made by Henry Hiemenz, Jr., on Saturday, Sept. 30, will comprise 63 lots on Chouteau, Boyle, Ken- tucky anid Talmage avenues. The tract is known as the “Witler Choutenu Avenue Subdivision.”” The heirs of the Witler es- tate have determined upon a distribution, and these lots must be sold for what they may bring. The rapid growth of values in that locality makes it quite attractive, either as an investment. or as a home. Two streetcar lines run near by and a trip there will satisfy any person that he will never regret the purchage of a lot there. Important Central Auction Sale. The auction sale of property at 114 and 116 Chestnut street, which the Rutledge & Kilpatrick Realty Company are advertis- ing for next Thursday is attracting more than ordinary interest, from a desire to know what property east of Third street will really bring when put to the test. The owner of this plece has determined to sel! it at whatever price it will bring. and his instructions to the Rutledge & Kilpatrick Realty Company are to force ft to a sale. Two years ago the event would have been announced with some misgivings as to the result, but since that time property to- wards the levee has been looking up; it is more in demand, with a better outlook for the future, and the chances are that there may be a surprising outcome to the sale. In Their New Office. Messrs. Hildenbrandt & Noble have moved into their new quarters at 623 Chestnut Street, and are ready to see their clients and friends, They anticipate and will un- doubtedly do a large business this fall, sharing in the general growth of trade and receiving that addition to which their en- ergy and fidelity entitle them.

Special to the Post-Dispatch MARION, IIl., Sept. 16.—At a meeting of the Democratic County Central Committee to-day a maaes meeting of the Williamson County Democrats was called to meet at the Courthouse ifn this city at 1 p. m., Sat- urday, Sept. 3, to nominate one candidate for nty Commissioner, to be voted for Carriage at “the cs = rhe » Ts 5 ° ee es Ae . i 4 wee 3 M aaat opie! ; , wie Sn id 0 isn? ae pigs , ne, Sea ote os ae ; margin and on borrowed forced to sale in large week, with resulting raids upon the market prices, reaching a considerable figure in some cases. Last Saturday's bink statement showing re- serves of a number of the clearing house institutions already below their legal lim- it, made it certain that there would be loan contraction: and the bears were eager to anticipate the selling which was in pros- pect. Rates fcr call loans were marked up on Monday and Tuesday by reason of the eager bidding of would-be borrowers who were seeking to shift loans which had beea called. The volume of liquidation indicat- ed clearly enough that many were un- able to get accommodations even at the higher level. The bears sold so industrious- ly that their demand to cover short con- tracts worked a sharp rally on Wednes- day, when the banke ceased to cat] in loans and the pressure of forced liquidation was relaxed. But when the demand from the shorts was satisfied the market fell back again. The reactionary tendency was em- phas'zed by the refusal of the St. Paul di- rectors to extend the disbursement of the large surplus earnings of the year beyond their regular dividend rate. The cecision was calculated to have the more effect on railroad stocks since many stocks have been lifted on speculative buy- ing based on expectat'on of increased div- idends. Few of these stocks can show as large a surplus of current earnings as St. Paul, and many are in far more urgent need of expeditures on structure and equlp- ment in order to increase the operating ef- ficiency. The annual report of nearly ev- ery important railroad contains the same story of diminishing rates for transporta- tion. SAVED BY SATURDAY OR THE WEEK ON ’CHANGE WOULD HAVE BEEN DULL. With the exception of Saturday, last week was one of exceeding duliness on the 8st Louis Stock bexchange, and the trangac- tions were.not great enough to be coon- sidered in making a genuine market. Yes- terday things warmed up toa really live- ly point, and that saved the week, Monday started off with interest cen- tered in Suburbans and Missouri-Edisons, and much “alk of consolidation of the lJat- ter with the Laclede. Monday was a biue day at best, as the New York bank state- ment of the Saturday before had given a doleful cast to everything financial, and no one was surprised when, the combine talk having petered out, the interest in Missou- ri-Edison dropped off; and Suburban, even under ‘the frequent assertions of the line’ absorption by the United Company, feh out of notice, as it was seen that the roads etill continued, like the brook, to run on and on forever. So Suburbans took a trip down the toboggan elide Monday, and no one wondered. Tuesday was very dull, and sales were s0 few that the brokers considered that they had wasted their time by going there. The next day the bears were in absolute contro] of things, and they amused them.- selves Sy hammering down securities in keeping with the actions of their fellows in New York. Missouri-Edigon, Suburbans and Lincoln Trust were the particular ob- ject of their abuse, and they were pound- ed. Sales were insignificant. Then, on Thureday, there was a sort of revival. Granite-Bimetallic had some good shipments, and there was a demand for that stock that sent it up, and added gome to the interest of the trading. That was the only feature, as other securiies were lower. The demand for minting stocks kept up, and even spread on Friday, and though the sales were few, the activitiy was reassur- ing. Brokers took more heart in the pro- ceedings, and there was a better tone to things all around, that argued well for a good day Saturday. his prediction was verified, as Saturday was the beet that the exchange has had for weeks. The bids were made with a anap, and the return sales were quick and sharp. Browns held the attention of the floor, and they were in demand. The Brown brokers were evidently trying to buy, but at their own figures, as they would not pay more than 189%, and not that when they could help it. It seemed to be their poticy to put the price up to that figure xy buying all they could get below it, and then offer to sell when it went there, thus weakening the market again. Sales in this one line were $8,000 yesterday, so it can be seen that there was marked activitiy. Mining stocks were again in good de- mand and stiff. The new etock of the Miesissippi Valley Trust Co. was on the market for the first time yesterday; in fact, there were botn bids and offers for eeveral securities that one hears little of about there. HEIR TO A VALUABLE ESTATE. -_—_——_ ———— Gustave Wetzel of the City Hospital Will Have Moncy and Lands.

LIPPMAN FOUND A RARE WORK OF ART. VALUE ESTIMATED AT $2000. Solitary Miner in the Wilds of Colo. rado Had the Picture Given Him by a Young Englishman. Dr. C. Lippman went bear hunting and brought back an oil painting. The capture is possibly the most remark- ; able ever made in the wilds of Colorado. The picture, Which the doctor would not | part with for any price, was found in a 'miner’s hut in the most desolate part of the Rockies, hundreds of miles from clv- ‘fligation. It is more than #0 years old and its actual value is estimated at $20v). The doctor, however, says that he would not take $10,000 for it and does not care to sell it for any amount. It was given to him by the aged occupant of the miner's hut where he camped during a night. \ The painting, which shas a remarkable} history, is a relic of the art of centuries ast, and its like could possibly not be ound anywhere in all America. Although the wooden back and frame are decayed with age, the painting is in a erfect state of preservation and is beautiful to look up- on. Its title is ‘The Visitation,” and it is a masterpiece of the Artist Sebastian de Piiembo, who died more than 400 years ago. Dr. Lippman, who has offices in the Cen- tury Building in St. Louis, has just re- turned from an extended hunting expedition in Colorado. He, with his party, explored ' regions :n the Rocky Mountains wnere they | supposed human feet had never trod before. The doctor in searching for big game strayed far away from camp and was over- taken by the darkness of night. He was riding horseback and armed with a trusty rifle. The. night looked stormy and he ' was not sure of his way. Far up among /the crags of the mountains he espied a light. e sought it in the hope of findin shelter from the threatening storm an food for his tired horse. Through the flashes of lightning he was able to discern the dim path and after a perilous journey finally reached the light, which he discovered gleamed from the emall window of a min- er’s hut. In res onse to his call an aged man opened the door and invited the doctor in. his hair was white, but his frame was stalwart and he seemed as iugged as the mountain cliffs about. He gave the doc? tor a hearty welcome, prepared a meal for him, and gave the horse a bounteous repast. He opened his oldest cask of wine and the two sat and talked until late in the night. Mach found the other entertaining. The her- A Well-Known Conductor of the LIN- DELL RAILWAY, who was RUPTURED while performing his duties, says: LR. W. A. LEWIN, 211. N. Seventh st.: mit miner delighted in learning ail the news of the outer world and the doctor found lots to interest him in the tales of the lonely mountain iife. The hut was a one-room frame structure, securely tucked away in the rocky cliffs The miner was its sole occupant. The only thing of ornament that adorned the interior of the cabin was a solitary oil paiuting, Gingy with age, that hung from the wall by a wire. Dr. Lippman is an admirer and a capabie judge of art and he was at once attracted by the pecnting. The m iner seemed to attach little importance to it. The doctor expreased his admiration for the picture and the miner told him its history, which caused Lippman to become all the more interested in the strange work cf art. The miner became greatly attached to the doctor and next morning when Dr. Lippman again spoke in praise of the painting, the miner said: “Doctor, I'll just make you a present of that picture as a proof of my good will. It’s no use to me ‘way out here in the mountain and if you want it you can have it. I’ve had it here for about 36 years now and all that time there haint a dozen peo- ple ever seen it and they didn’t pay much attention to it. Maybe in St. Louis it will be more appreciated. So, if it will be of any lhoor Sir: While I bave read a great pumber of timoniale published by your patients from time to time, I aseure you that nobody felt more pleas. « in dolng so than !

The miner in relating the history of the painting stated that when he first took up his abode in the hut he had a com- panion who was an Englishman of noble birth. The picture belonged to the com- panion, It had been given to him by his father, who had died, and the son carried it with him wherever he went, in reverence for hia sire. Upon the death of the fa- ther the gon started out on an adventur- ous career, The miner and the young Engiishman met in Colorado and in a prospecting ad- venture they took up their abode in the hut yet occupied by the former. he pic- ture was hung on the wall, where it re- mained until given to Dr. Lippman a few “are ago. he nglishman died shortly after they had begun living in the hut and his body was buried in the side of the mountain, a few feet away. The owner of the pic- ture before his death had told the miner that it was given to hs father by the famous Pnglieh artist, Turner, an tntimate friend of the family. The name of Sebas- tian de Pliembo, who painted the picture, is eigned to it. The painting had Coon in the possession of var.ous English families after the death of Piiembo, which occurred more than four centuries ago. The doctor was compelled to carry the picture on horseback until he reached the nearest railroad, which required six days. He says he was nearly worn out by the ordeal, but he wae determined to not part with the picture, if he never reached ihe railroad. The painting, exclusive of the frame, ts 14x20 Inches in dimensions. It is an arched top panel and is painted on a pecullar me- dium of wood covered with a chalk sur- face — something exceedingly rure at the resent day, but not uncommon four cen- uries ago. The wooden part is almost de- cayed with age, but the painting is a@ fresh looking as it ever was. It is of Bib- lical design. In the lower left hand cor- ner ise the figure of the Virgin with her face turned toward the archangel who has come with the announcement: “Hall, full of Grace, our Lord ig with - yn n the right upper corner is the fi t the Father looking down approving.y % Dr. Lippman on reaching St. Louis took the painting to Atr.st James Kelly's art rooms, Olive street, where it was And the balance weekly or monthly gets he latest and best Quick Meal steel range. rices, set up complete, $23, $28 and .

A photograph, with “Little Brown Eyes” , written om the back, was sent to Photog- rapher Frank Starke of 6837 Finney avenu by Mrs. H. B. Rockwell of 1827 Fourth Street, Harrisburg, Pa. with a letter re- questing the name of the original. Before Mr. Starke could look the name up the impatient lady asked a E de- tective agency to obtain the infogimtion for her. A representative of the mcs calied on the photographer. He told the detective he had not found time to ascer- tain the identity of “Little Brown Eyes.” The i’o08t-Dispatch founda yesterd Vv that the original of the photograph was Georgla Porter, the 12-year-old daugnter of Mr. and rs. orter of 3417 B Belle avenue.

Two broke out of the calaboose and in doing 80 thoughtlessly did several dol- lars’ worth of damage. The question ag!- tating the community is as to who gehall pay for the repairs. The village consta- ble has done the work and wants to be paid for it. The village fathers refuse to pay him and say he ought to be glad they don’t fine him or put him in jail for let- ting the prisoners escape. Two weeks ago two young men were ar- rested at Lenzburg who were wanted some- where down along the Ohio River. There was a reward of $100 for them, That fs what caused all the subsequent trouvle. The information on which the pair were ‘rested was furnished iby the telegraph Se ranat at Lenzburge. He put Constable Kelly ‘next,’ and the constable arrested them. The expectation pres that those twv would ehare the rewara, o S: With ‘mtent to avoid having to “divvy with anybody else, no ostentation was made of the arrest. The two men were placed in the calaboose, and to make them doubly secure they were handcuffed together. The calaboose had been recently remod- eled and strengthened at a cost of $15 and it was not considered necessary for any- body to stay with the go Early the next morning Constable Kelly arose and went to take a look at his prizes. They had broken the etove to pieces, pried the door off of the hinges and gone away, taking Mr. Kelly’s only pair of hand uffg with them, Constable Kelly repaired the damage and a bill for his services to the village counci]. The Board had a spell of wrath when the bill was read. Each of the city dads seemed to think Kelly ought to have let him in on the game and they were all laying for a chance to lambast him. G. G.

Al- though a posse has been scouring the woods in the vieinity of Florissant for more than @ week past and the officers of St. Louis County have maintained a vigorous search, so far no trace of Devergee has been ob- tained. This written description of the fugitive has been given out: “Jack Devergee ie a Swiss, 2% years of age, 5 feet 6 inches in height, welghs about l@#@ pounds, has light sandy hair, a pug nose and tomato-stained hands; he wore a brown fedora hat, gray trousers and heavy brogan shoes. When he left Floris- sant he carried a bun@le of clothes wrapped in blue cloth and wore a black jersey jacket."’ Devergee was a man of excellent address and was well educated. He conversed fiu- ently In three tongues—E:nglish,French and German, His voice was soft in tone and decidedly effeminate The assault upon Mrs. Benoist is de- scribed as being one of the most outrageous occurrences ever known in St. Louis Coun- ty. She was young and handsome and, like her husband, placed inplicit confidence in Devergee, who had been about the place for some time and was attentive to his duty. The Benoist home is located on the Brown between Florissant and Bridgeton. here are no near neighbors that might have been attracted by woman's screams. Mr. had went to St. Louls one evening and left the place in charge of Devergee, whom he in- structed to protect his wife from harm. Mrs. Benoist claims that Devergee forced himself into her room at 9 o’clock in the evening after making most insulting roposals to her, proceeded to accomplish is purpose by brute force. He threat- ened to kill her if she made an outcry. When Mr. Benoist returned he found his wife almost collapsed from the nervous etrain and the awful struggle. She told him of the outrage, and he at once went out for assistance to search for the de spoller of his home. The farmers al] about formed themse!ves tnto a body, and, armed with ropes and weapons, they began a search that has continued night and day ever since.

LONDON, Sept. 9%. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. EWS has just been received here that N the Count and Countess Festetics of New York. “‘the long-distance bri- dal couple of the world.” had a narrow and thrilling have once more escape from capture and death at the hands of a party of savage cannibals. The young couple were revisiting the Sol- omon group of ts'ands, where they have Called severa] times before, and were be- calmed in a little bay, where it was their intention to land. They were seen from shore and a num- ber of canoes put off. At first the voyagers Supposed that a party of natives were in- tending to pay them a friendly visit, but when the natives were fairly out in the bay it was seen that they were In the long War canoes, and that many of the natives carried clubs and stone hatchets, which @re tiever taken out on a friendly excur- 6lon. Some former experience prompted a pru- dent course, and al) sail was set on the yacht and she was headed for open water, but at first under a breeze so light as to permit the islanders to gain on them. Every one on the yacht was armed to the teeth. They stood with set white faces along the rail, Providentially the land breeze quickened, and the yacht began to distance her pur- euers, for pursuers they were plainly seen to be, and savage and enraged pursuers, too, as they saw the yacht slowly, but surely, gain safe water. So there was no fight, the guns were put away again and ail on board breathed a sigh of reilef. Tt is reported that these same Islanders captured, killed and ate a German crew Which had landed to trade. Their Romuntic History. The Count and Countess Festetics’ honey- moon yachting cruise that has now jasted about seven years, will be recalled to a prominent place in the gossip of those in- terested in the doings of fashionable folk by the above piece of news, and a'so by another story concerning the “long-dis- tance bridal couple,” as they are some- times called, brought here by a New York Rlobe-trot‘er who saw the Count and Countess recently In Yokohama, Japan. The Count of this Story is the Count Ru- dolphe Sigismund Festetics, who married Miss Lilia Haggin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis T. Haggin of 2 F-fth avenue, New York, and grand-daughter of the cop- per baron, J. B. Haggin. That is to say, this Count Is not the Count Paul Festetics, hero of the Wilhelmine Fis- cher-Festetics romance and scandal. nor the Count Tassilo Festetics of the Princess of Monaco romance, nor the Count 8 gis- mund Festetics who—well, he is constantly confused in published stories with many Count Festetics, ail of whom are heroes of romances other than the seven-year-South- Sea-Island-honeymoon romance. It appears that, unlike some of the others just mentioned, our present Count Is not possessed of large income-paying estates in Austria or Hungary, and that the Count- ess has a large but troublesomely uncerta n allowance from her grandfather, J. B. Hag- gin, one of the wealthiest mining men in America and many-times millionaire from his Anaconda copper mine holdings alone. When the young people were married .n New York in February, 1892, they went to San Francisco, where a schooner yacht was bought and fitted up for a few months’ cruise in the South Seas, which has not yet ended. From the day the yacht was bought by the bride's father vexatious complications arose. The Count, a foreigner, could not get American papers as sailing master or owner, 60 the Countess, then a girl of 17. was made of record owner and sailing master of the trading schooner Tolna. They had no sooner sailed than the fam- fly and friends of the lovely young skip- per were thrown Into agonies of doubt and fear by a story started in San Francisco that the mate of the schooner had said he would be the owner of the ship and cargo and the young couple's jewels and money before a month was past. Here was a Stevenson tale of the South Seas with a real hero and heroine. came stories of adventures with cannibals, of shipwreck, of mutiny and all the perils of the seas and the islands thereof. But they reached Yokohama in safety. After a long cruise, they visited It several times, and finally the visits of the Tolma began to be looked forward to with lively interest by the foreign smart set, Eng.ish, Wrench, German and Austrian officers and other titled or wealthy foreigners who think that Japan is the loveilest spot on earth, and therefore make Yokohama their headquarters. Whenever they made that favored port, the count and countess started In at once at the Grand Hotel with a series of bril- liant and iavish entertalnment« at which the smart set mentioned was made welcome The cvunt hunted up the ae.eats and the countess personally superintended the din- pers and fetes.

When suddenly the Tolna would sail away with the Count and Countess aboard, and no more would be of them for perhaps a month, perhaps six months. What was the mystery? It is said that Grandpa Haggtin, although devotedly attached to the charming Coun- tees, has never made her a stated allow- ance The times and the extent of the loosening of his purse-strings are affected, so the etory goes, by the price of copper and silver, the price his yearlings from the Sacramento stock farm bring at Tattersall, and by various other considerations.

New York began its goodly custom of cel- ebrating with its entrance into the union. Its first great public celebration was held lll years ago, July 26, 1788. in honor of the adoption of the Corstitution, and {ft is char- acteristic of that spirit which still marks the city that it held the celebration a day or two before the Constitution had beet ratified by the convention at Poughkeep- sie.

On the 138th of April, 1789, George Wash- ington having been elected first President of the United States, arrived at Elizabeth- port on his way to New York. There a committee from the new capital was wait- ing to meet him, consisting of a de.egation from Congress, representatives of the Fed- eral Government, the Mayor and Recorder and a host of dignitaries. He was rowed up to the city by way of the Kills tn a barge manned by 13 ship- masters, and at the entrance to the harbor everything afloat then tn the port fel] In the wake of the barge and followed it up to Murray's wharf, where he was received by Gov.

Having thus ce.ebrated a great national event and a great nationa) hero, New York next turned its attention to establish the custom of celebrating centennials, The i : we : i eS “d ce « t ai ee 2 ; Ce oe ee a Ms aw : : Dek Salen y Rh Sng E>. ; 3 ies “ 4 - “e 2 Stee : = ‘eet. eg va . 4 ‘ ‘ r? of, at & ae i: = ; i cy . ee ; Hf e% ee ‘ a ary a net =) Te 5 ty 2 Ss i aad ed } as ot pew ee a hee od A oe es te ee Oe eo ae 77 om Co > 5 7 Fe - + x ax ~ ba ie, : as r two hundredth anniversary of the founding of the city was made the occasion of a celebration under the auspices of the His- torical Society on Sept. 4, 1809. The Gov- ernor, the Mayor, the Corporation and a briillant erray of invited guests were re- galed in the City Hall with an address, and then adjourned to the famous City Hotel, on Broadway, where an old-time banquet was served and 3% toasts and sentiments were religiously drunk. THE DECATUR CELEBRATION. When New York was 208 years old and the Constitution was 34 years old and the war of 1812 wus on, the growing city had a chance to snow what it thought of a naval hero. On Aug. 19, 1812, Commodore Isaac Hull, In command of the Constitution, had captured the British frigate Guerrilere; on Oct. 18 Commodore Jones of the Wasp had captured -he stronger British war vessel, the Frolic, and on Oct. 2 the gallant De- catur, with the United States, met and cap- tured the Macedonian. New York went wild over these victories, and when Decatur brought his ship and prize into the harbor the patriotic enthusiasm of the city rose to a high pitch of excitement not matched until to-day. Some of the features of the celebration might well be imitated now, as, for the decorations at the City Hote] dinner, which are described as fol- lows by Mrs. Lamb in her history of New York: “The banqueting hall had the effect of a great marine palace, The genius and taste, as well ase the money of New York, had been lavishly expended upon its adorn- ment. It was colonnaded around with masts of ships, entwined with laurels and bearing the flags of all the world. In front of the raised table of honor appeared in the midst of a grassy area a real .ake of wter, upon which floated a miniature frigate, and back of all mung the mainsail of a ship 3 by 16 feet. At the moment of the utterance of the third toast, “Our Navy,” this great mains@i] was furled, revealing an immense transparent painting representing the three instance, ~ ae ee oa Foe a hapa ‘ae _ os he aed be ye eS § ees S EG ae 4 my ? ee | z naval battles in which Hull, Decatur and Jones had been respectively engaged. Equa) honor was shown to the crew of the United States, who were banqueted in the City Hotel, and then entertained at the Park Theater at a special performance in their honcr. THE VISIT OF LAFAYETTE. When it was known in the summer of 1824 that the venerable and beloved revo- lutionary hero, Lafayette, the friend of Washington, the gallant representative of the chivalry and sympathy of France in our struggle for independence, was to make a visit after 40 years’ absence, to the coun- try which had adopted him, New York, after its now invariable fashion, prepared to greet him worthily. His reception was wholly @ surprise to him. On the arrival of his vesse?, the Cadmus, at the Narrows, it was boarded by a mes- senger whose secret message brought it to anchor off Staten Island. While the pas- sengers were wondering what might be the cause of the delay a naval parade was seen approaching—the side-wheel steamer had them come into existence—with flags fiying. and a committee of the Mayor, of- ficials and prominent citizens visited the Cadmus to notify the illustrious passenger that he was the guest of the nation and, as it was Sunday. he was to rest that night at the mansion ef the Vice-President of the United States, Daniel] D. Tompkins, on Staten Island. Monday morning ushered in the five days of holiday, of feasting, of rejoicing, of receptions and enteftainments and bestowal of honors upon th@ old hero. Business was suspended in the city, traffic was ordered off the streets, the bells were set to ringing, the bunting was*thung out and on the fair August day the whole city was in the streets. r The naval parade which went down to serve as an escort ts described as by far the finest display that the country had ever seen. The President had given orders that Lafayette was to be received with the full honers of the highest army rank, and amid +> #08 To ee, aoe ee tp ee ee ee a, yl MT Pe Oe oA qe ‘ fice Gg ho fa ae pede Bie Rig e oP* ory Ae ater ae hk a rh DAYS. the thunder of cannon and the music of bands the slow procession moved up to Castle Garden, where the whole city cheered itself hoarse, and where the land parade began between the lines of troops and civic societies up to the City Hall. Thus was the beginning of festivities which lasted without Intermission until, on the 2th, he set out for Boston in a coach drawn by four white horses, and was es- corted to Harlem by the Mayor, the Alder- men, a delegation of citizens and the mi- litia.

The reasons for Dr. Zaremba’s belief are these: On Santa Catalina Island are two natural formations known as Arch Rock and Eagle's Nest. Nowhere else on earth are there rocks similar to these. Both of them appear frequently in Aztec records. Pictures of them are found on parchment and stone. They seem have been the national seal or trademark. They became identified with Aztec history. Dr. Zaremba has pictures of them on parch- ment drawn by Aztec hands 600 years ago— parchment and pictures about whose au- thent'city there can be no doubt. His at- tention was attracted to published pictures of Arch Rock and Eagie'’s Nest. Detai ed comparison of them with his parchment pictures showed them to be identical.

She said her grandfather had given it to her when he was an old man, tebkrge her that it had been in the family for 2 years. Dr. Pennafiecl, keeper of archives and general statistics of the Mexican re- pwolic, has seen this record and declares that it is genuine. “I went on to compare other pictures.

Ex- plorers of the island had wondered about the primitive inhabitants who had built cities and left other marks of a higher civilizaton than the trbes of the contl- nent possessed. It is supposed they might have been wanderers from across the Pa- cific. The history of the Aztecs as set forth by Dr. Zaremnba is more comprehensive than any yet given. He says: “Before the year 1298 they were living on Santa Catalina Island, a highly civilized tribe, bullding cities and making stone im- plements. “The wanderings of the eight tribes that went South can be traced along the coast, crossing the Colcrado River, passing ‘ ‘PROBABLE ROUTE OF THE AZTECS FROM SANTA CATALINA TO MEXICO ARCH ROR found in THE Sot) HISFORICAL GES nie oF THE AZ rLES. ge -e3ne a “The background have viewed was formed by a mountain cleft in two.

It is such records as this, showing ac- curacy of date and faithful record of some of the events important to their tribes, that have led historians to place confidence in the hieroglyphics so far as they have been translated. Dr. Zaremba, therefore, piaces confidénce in the history he is able to read from his records.

They then proclaimed the King of Alhuacan as chief. Shortly afterward they were expelled from their count:y, and in 1387 they decided vron the eastern shore of the Lake of Texcoco as a habitation, and founded there the monarchies of Tlaitelolce and Chapuuitepec, which were Kept sepa- rate until 1438, when the fifth and last king, Moquihuix, was ccnquered by Moctezuma I., the seventh King of Chapultepec.

" Ss ve | » i Y es Se ‘ ee SE oe : C the if ‘ * 3 Aztlan agree with Dr. Zaremga in its rela- tive position. It is somewhere in the nortna- ‘west, they say, but the exact place can- not. be determined. Brasseur de Bourbourg in his ‘“‘History of National Civilization”’ says: “Aztlan is situated to the northwest of California. This ig the opinion of a great number of writers. M. Aubin says they inhabited the peninsula now called Lower California, and that it was once Aztlan.” Humboldt and Gondra place Aztlan north of 42 degrees north latiiude. Fontaine shows that the Aztec “tl’’ sound is found in the northwest and consequently believes the Aztecs originally came from that direction. Some writers went still further north, and a few chose such locations for Aztlan as of patient the Aztecs has was the Isiand miles off the From there where they power was by the ‘“laking these records as the basis of in- vestigation and comparing them with the indelibie marks left on Santa Catalina Is- land, the student of Aztec history wiil be convinced that this dot on the Pacific Ocean is the ancient Aztlan, the cradle of the AZiecs.”’ In this connection it may be stated that the olla quarries on Santa Cata.ina are tne only ones that have been discovered any- where aiong the Pacific Coast. All the jars used by the natives of Southern Cah- fornia are supposed tv have come from there. Olas were among the earliest utéen- sls known to the Aztecs, and if no oth- er quarry is found after explorations among all the Agtec ruins in other parts of the country etrength will be added to the ur- gument that the petures on the early Az- tec records must have been drawn before they left the isiand.

It is certainly very interesting to go over the different parts of this great plateau and see how the people providel against the drouth and how carefully they studied the changes of na- ture and developed her resources. Not one, but many ways, were resorted to in making the soll productive These will be seen as we proceed, but may be mentioned briefly: 1. The simplest plan was to depend upon the rain for the crops and to make the springs supply the people for domestic pur- poses, There were no cattle or sheep, or herds of any Kind, which required water, but the people reeced a constant supply The result was that the houses were placed near some spring, where weter was con- stant. The pueblos were also placed near springs and lakes. The Zuni puebio Was chosen as the abodes of various tribes, some of whom made their homes in and others built their stone houses the sides of the cliffs, and may be calied cliff dwellers.

To such and similar devices the New Mexican vil- lager had to resort and it was a relief to him when he could nestle by the side of a permanent river and raise beans and cala- bashes, with the ald of primitive channels of irrigation. The tribes on the Rio Grande and the people of Taos and Pecos enjoyed such privileges more than any of the other tribes. With them irrigation was easy and frequent mention is made of it by the older writers. There were reservoirs on the mesas. which were constructed by placing dams across the channels or Wwaterspouts, leav- ing the low places to be filled with rain during the summer or melted snow in the spring. There was a contrivance for sup- plying the warts of the village, which was very ingenious. It consisted of mak- ing a series of reservoirs, some of them above the village, some of them be'low, and causing the water to flow through the court, where it was used for domestic pur- poses and afterward gathered into & pond them by the priests at the time of initiation.

All their fibers are a little wilted and re- laxed, so that the petals droop witha sensu- ous languor. If you look closely you see that their beauty is marred by tawny blotches, faint, but Indelible, and sure to deepen hour by hour. Even the fragrance that was so delicious in the open air grows rank and oppressive in the drawing-room. Exactly like the story of these Bermuda lilies Is the life story of the beautiful Jersey ily. tll too, grew up and bloomed into lovell- ness in a secluded isiand. She, too, Was un- wisely transported from her quiet home to the impure air of a great city to adorn the stage, the drawing-room and the banquet hall. Compare the fresh betauty of the opening blossom, as shown in these pic- tures of her girlhood,with the languid droop of the same flower ufter it had stood over- long in a gilded vase—over much handled, perhaps, end certainiy too much breathed upon by rumor and scandalous gossip. Can you imagine these girlish lips parting to volee the words she is said to have ut- tered later: ‘“‘Men are born to be slaves; I resolved that I would never give a smile to aman which did not have'its price, and I may say that I never have!’ The story of Emelie Charlotte Le Breton, now Mrs. De Bathe, but best known as Lily Langtry, is so familiar that the brief- est outline will suffice. She was born in 1853, hence she Is now about #4. Her father, the dean of Jersey, was called ‘‘the handsomest man in Eng- land.”” He was poor, however; beauty, not wealth, was her inheritance. Yet it would seem that in girlhood her surpassing lovell- ness was realized by few. In fact, it was only after her marriage that her beauty Was generally recognized. Boon after her merriage the falr young bride visited London and appéared in soc‘e- ty. It had longibeen her dream: it be- came a sordid reality. The same breath that proclaimed the lily’s perfection began to tarnish its petals. She was Introduced to the Prince of Wales and received his homage. Aristocratic Lon- don bowed down before her. Whatever her faults and errors, she has every excuse which the seductions of the corrupt cult known as “eoclety’’ can supply. Suddenly, after several years had passed, she fell from favor. Was it because of some serious lapse? Oh, no! was circu- lating all sorts of stories, but it was not that. The legend is that at a girlish frolic she had dropped a bit of ice down the Prince's back. He could excuse much, it seemed, but such an assault upon his dignity—never! So society, baving done its worst, proceeded to consummate its finalact and cast her off. It was then that she turned to the stage. lier genius as an actress, such was the general verdict, was nothing extraordinary, but ber beauty, assiduously cultivated and unceasingly advertised, won success. It is needless ito detall the rest of her ca- reer. Her list of admirers is equaled by that of few women. Gossip By Mrs. Le Breton Langtry de Bathe LONDON, Aug. 31. Special Correspondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. AM English—English to the backbone— for I was born in the Island of Jersey, which has been a British possession from the time of the conquest, and indeed, we islanders claim to be the oldest Eng- lish. My father, the venerable Dean le Breton, was a direct descendant of the Le Bretons of Normandy. My family has been in the island since the eighth century, and has figured in most of the historic events of Jersey. Tombs of the Le Bretons are to be seen every- where in the Church of St. Savior's;: Le Bretona figure in the famous Bayeux tapestry. In the well-known picture of the Battle of Jerscy my great-greatuncle is seen urging the troops to the fight, though he was a dean; the flying figure of a wom- an represents my great-grandmother, and the child in her arms is my grandfather. Thus it came to pass that the deanery of St. Saviour’s, Jersey, in which I first saw the light, was a kind of hereditary holding. My father was appointed to it at the early age of 3, after a very short apprentice- ship in holy orders as a curate at St. Olave's, Southwark, and as the chaplain of Newgate. My father was undoubtedly a very bril- Mant scholar. He was educated at Win- chester, and then was a Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford. He left college at an age when most youths are entering it, for he was only 19 when he took his degree. He was @ very fine elocutionist. The Shaks- pearian readings, or rather, recitations, which he gave for different churches from time to Lime, were flocked to by the whole island, d there is little doubt that he would have made his mark as en orator. Perhaps any aptitude that I may have shown for the étage has been inherited from him. Nobody took greater interest in my professional career or was so pleased at any small success that I may have ob- tained than my father. He had a marvel- ous memory, and could recite a whole play of Ghakspeare without a mistake. I in- herit that quality; my memory hase been of great use to me in my profession. I do not always read carefully; but what I read attentively I never forget. It Was @ great mistake of my father ever to have accepted the charge of St. Savior's, for his undoubted ability, his great charm of manner, and, perhaps, I may add, his stately and handsome presence, would have in London certain. In ad- battle of Jersey. who were attached to him to the end of his life was Dr. Longley, the Archbishop of Canterbury. By my mother’s side I am of Scotch descent. She was a Martin, and a woman of remarkable beauty. The deanery at St. Savior’s is an old granite building, some parts of which date from the year 900. It it in the midst ofa beautiful scene, which I can recall at any moment by closing my eyes. The building is overgrown with roses of every hue, from the blush to the damask, mingled with myrtie and jasmine, and is perched on the brow of a cotille, as a hill is termed in the Jersey patois, and overlooks a _ perfect stretch of meadow land, tenanted by num- bers of soft-eyed Jersey cattle. And sometimes in the evening, as I look into the fire, I seem to hear the lowing of the cattle, and with it are mingled the sweet sing-song of the patois of my own people—a patois which amid all changes of fortune and travel, I can still speak as fluently as when I was a child. My father had advanced ideas, for his time, with regard to the education of wom- en. That accounted for the peculiar way in which my education was carried on. I never went to school, but started un- der the charge of a governess. She, how- ever, was soon supplanted by tutors, and I had to learn Greek, Latin and German, among other things. from the best masters that Victoria College could supply. Music and drawing I worked at enthusiastically— especially music—and I showed some m'- sical talent, for I played more than once at the local concerts. And then I would dream sometimes of be- ing a singer; sometimes of being a painter; but, strange to say, never once in those early days did the thought ever once enter my head of becoming an actress. I never appeared even once in amateur theatri- cals and I had no particular love for the theater. In that respect I was a faithful echo of my surroundings, for at that pe- riod we heard and knew, within the gran- ite walls of the deanery, little of the dra- matic companies who visited the Theater Royai. Puritanical ideas were still domi- nant In the island generally. : To be one of seven children and the only girl might convey the impression thas I was likely to be spoilt. On the contrary I had to take my position on the “‘battle- field’’ of sport, with six robust and athletic brothers. all of whom, with one exception, were older than myself, and all of whom were wild creatures. full of animal spirits and the love of mischief. To this very day I shudder at the thoughts of the kicks I received at football, the dangerous position of wicket-keeper I was invariably forced into at cricket, and the blows on the nose that made my mother insist on my giving up boxing, much to the disgust of my brothers, who were doing thelr best, as they proudly observed, ‘‘to make a man” of me. Their efforts did not end with these en- deavors, by any means. Amongst other wild pranks, I remember, they conceived the idea of sending my youngest brother and myself, mounted on stilts, enveloped in sheets, with phosphorus paint smeared on our faces and hands, to patrol the an- clent churchyard, adjoining the deanery paddocks, at the witching hour of mid- night. It was the very same churchyard from which our great-great uncle har- angued the troops on the morning of the But what a change in the circumstances! He was there to inspire his men with courage; our object was to fill belated islanders with dread, and to such an extent did we succeed that letters were written to the local newspapers threatening to shoot anything in the neighborhood that looked like a ghost. At the same time everybody on the island, the police included, knew full well that the ghostly apparitions were probably the re- sult of another of the innumerable pranks of the mischievous family of the dean. There is no doubt the “natives” had a pretty shrewd idea of where to look for the offenders. But they never took us seriously; their love for the Le Bretons seemed to condone everything. Another freak of ours was the annexa- tlon or exchange of door knockers. I am ashamed to state that I have walked for miles with my uphe'd gekirt filled with these useful and decorative articles, with the sole object of giving them a change of air, or, rather, a change of paint, for we would place a highly poiished brass knock- eron a laborer’s cottage, and transplant his broken apology for one to a mansion three miles off, On one occasion, I remember, we care- fully—very carefully—removed a knocker and eubstituted a large pumpkin, at- tached to which was a long string, and at the other end of the string a huge stone, which we flung over a wall, across the high road. Needless to say, the retired piano- forte tuner, who occupied the maisonette, spent a somewhat restlesg night, as the string was caught by every conveyance that passed, with the result that the pump- kin wildly rattled against the door in a manner that must have sharply reminded the unforiunate tuner of his early experi- ences in his profession. Years after, on a return visit to the island, assisted by one of my brothers, I unearthed the knocker we so unlawfully removed and restored it to its former position. Looking back on my childhood days, I am inolined to think that, in spite of our care- less freaks, there was a softer side to our nature as well. I well remember a ehriveled old blanchisseuse named Madame Soyer, who used to trundle her washing up and down the St. Savior’s Hill at most un- timely hours. Many were the occasions on which we laid in wait for her to throw her, in spite of her shrieks and expostulations, on top of her barrow of linen, and weel her home to her ivy-covered cottage. Th's traditional assisting of Madame Soyer in her home-coming clung to eome of us 1ong years after we had gone out into the world, [ remember meeting one of my oldér brothers, who was paying a visit to his home, wheeling Veuve Soyer’s burden of linen up the hill, whilst ehe reclined in State, in a fly that he had chartered from the plier on h's arrival by the mall boat. The love of horses has been with me always. This passion was ebared by my youngest brother, Reginald; that and the sloseness of our age were the reasons why we were very great chums. Our (rst attempt at an equipage may be worth re- lating. We procured the rumble of an o'd carriage of my father’s, had it put en wheels by the local carpenter—we got the shafts by abstracting the long poles from the old-fashioned shower bath of my father’s, which made him very furious, for he had a passionate love for his bath— and then we harnessed the donkey to it with home-made harness of ropes and od'é and ends. Ata stipend of two-pence-half- penny per week, we secured a tiny boy to stand—as ‘‘tiger’’—on a ledge behind the turnout. We made him wear one of the dean’s hats, with rosette and strings com- plete, but in spite of all the paper we could ram inside it, the brim of the would descend, after half an hour’s jolting in this most precarious position, to the top of the small servitor’s nose. The boy also wore my brother’s Sandhurst coat with buttons, which increased the absurdity cf his appearance. I was then only 10 years old, but I can quite imagine the effect we produced as we drove gaily about the place, feeinig very pleased with one an- other. My sporting career also began at the early age of 11. I was still a child when this same brother purchased a race horse. Most people interested in sport have heard of the victory of my horse, Milford, but it is qu.te an error to suppose that he was my first winner, for I went through the trials and anxiety of ownership—I should say part ownership—at a very early and tender age. The name of our purchase was Flirt; she was a bay mare of uncertain age and very uncertain forelegs. We gave the princely sum of 4 pounds 10 shillings for her. The Jersey races were at that time ur- der no ruies whatever, and the stakes hardly worth winning; oniy animals o£ somewhat blemished reputation and shady selling-plate antecedents ever found their way to the Jersey race course. One reason, no doubt, was that if the horses that were entered failed in fulfilling their miss'on of winning a race, after their two hours’ rough passage across the Channel, they were disqualified for any meeting under Jockey Club rules for the rest of their natural lives, and were, therefore, put up to aucton and sold for whatever’ they would fetch, | rat have already written you that my father was a very long-suffering and indulgent parent and indeed he was: but we feared the ef: fect ef introducing a race horse to him Flirt was, therefore, brought to the dean. ery stables as a hack and put to steady training. In these proceedings I was again the victim. To save my brother's dignity, it was I who had to he respon- Sible for taking out the alleged hack. I had to mount, or rather was thrown like another Mazeppa, on the back of the ani- mal, while my brother, on the staid and quiet “‘Peggy,'’ a perfectly safe beast, of French extraction, on which I was accus- tomed to take my exercise, ambled by my But when we reached an adjacent common, the saddles were exchanged, and Reggy and I led the thoroughbred as well as we could on her exercise gallops. Reggey must have had a natural gift for training—for he certainly had no experience in turf matters—and the upshot of it was that, ridden and trained in this way, Flirt won a race, worth 30 pounds to the winner, the ‘‘first time of asking.’ It is sad to relate that this race broke Flirt down com- pletely, and though we expended the whole of the winnings on advertised stuffs for blistering and so on we utterly fatled to set our heroine on her legs again. From what will have guthered side, Nothing succeeds like success, however, and, emboldened by the manner in which it was received by the head of the familly, we subsequently made various purchases of broken down or vile tempered thorough- breds. These, however, unanimously failed to place us any higher on the list of local winning owners. One animal, a ‘“‘chaser"’ called Rhododene dron. cost us a great deal of worry. Our first difficulties with him arose on account of an abnormally large foreleg. But, worse than this, was his acrobatic manner of using his hind ones, which he did to such good purpose that he rid himself of my brother on several grievous occasions. And after all our endurance and troubles, he rewarded us by falling, somehow and somewhere, every time he started. Disgust- ed with failure, we dispcsed of our racing and so ended the first part of my career. stud, turf I was very fond of pets, and rabbits. birds, guinea-pigs and squirrels all formed part of my collection, [ suppose, like most children, | was guilty of alternately overfeeding and negiecting them, and I re- member a canary of mine dying. Whether my conscience pricked me or not, I don't know, but I decided to bury it, with full funeral honors, In my garden. The rest of the pets were placed around the grave, in crape, and a tombstone was erected on which was inscribed: ‘Alas! Poor Dick!’ That little grave and tomb- stone still exist, and the grave is carefully railed round and plousiy tended by the present gardener. As the only daughter of the dean of the island and a most precocious miss, any duties shirked by my mother fell on me, and I was frequently called upon to pre- sent the prizes at the’ various parochial and national schools, often to pupils older than myself. This was the kind of life I led—healthy, free, unconscious, until the day I sailed away into the great world, the second wife of Mr. Langtry—for Mr. Langtry was a widower when he married me. I was a true daughter of the island, strong, full of life, but, at the same time, shy, self-dis- trustful, and with many of the misgiv- ings of the Puritans, when people spoke as toanything which savored of joy. I was a strict Sabbatarian, I dreaded the the- ater; I felt myself abashed and miserable in society. I was not a prophetess in my own coun- try. I had never been spoken of or spoken to of having any attractions above the com. mon. Once, and once only, was I paid a compliment before I left the island.

CORYDON, Ky., Sept. 12. | To the Editor of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. N your last Sunday’s issue I find an article by Prof. James W. Hyslop of Columbia University on the subect of The article is very unsatisfactory in that after writing at much length he nowhere suggests why or how we dream, and leaves the subject in the fog in which he found it. According to the @criptures man is com- posed of two elementsa—the mortal and im- ortal, the body and the spirit—the spirit, having its indweliing in the body. De- parted spirits—epirits of the dead—have nothing whatever to do with our dreams; dreams are the result of the commingling of living spirits—spirits that have their ‘house of clay” in this world. There is no communication between the living and the dead. Recently I wrote the inclosed short article on the gubject of dreams for the Henderson (Ky.) Deilly Gleamer.

Maj Inga!!s finds that it can @end a shot a distance of 14.76 mi'es, over two miles further than that possible with @ny plece of ordnance ever before con- structed. In other words, placed on thea Diaza in front of the Eads Bridge, it could fire a projectile into Kirkwood, a d stance of fourteen miles as a bird files, andi com- | pletely wreck that city. The importance of these properties cannot be overestimated. For instance. the high - muzzie velocity permits of a trajectory for the shell of over 90.000 feet. Such a tra- tory has never before been approached, e gun can be tra‘ned at an angle of forty- a " five degrees and easily overcome such 9b- y ptacies as confronted the navy at Sanitago, when great difficuity was experienced in ing shells over the bluffa at the mouth eee the harbor into the fortifications beyond.

The gun is elevated forty-five degrees, although capable of a greater angie. Its trajectory at that eleva- tion is exactly 30,549 feet. That is, it fires a shot which at the highest altitudes that it attains Is 30,549 feet above the muzzle of the gun. This is attained at a disiance of nine and one-half miles from. the gun. Fyvom this time until it falls 14.76 miies -_———- away its course is downward, so that it strikes the ground at an angle of nearly sixty degrees. The entire time consumed in traveling the whole distunee is a trifle over 82% seconds, These figures are all compiled by Maj. Ingalls, whose experience in such matters would lead one to accept their accuracy without question... His record is certainly a most remarkable one. For instance, before the trial ef the crack English gun at Shrewsbury in 1888 on ‘the occasion of the jubiiee all the foreign experts calculated i ‘iit The extreme height of its trajectory is six miles. Maj. Ingalls none came within 1500 yards of the distance He stipulated the usual atmospheric conditicns existing at Shrews- bury at the time and calculated the range 150 yards shcrt. According to the formulas laid down by him at the time and consider- ing the atmospheric conditions that actu- ally did exist, his calculation would have been exact to within 10 feet of the fall of the shell. The performance at the time was regarded as one of the most remark- able ever called to the attention of milltary ordinance experts. The Shrewsbury gun made a new record hd Hida ie iy : Wf that and the smaller sized shel! explains the remaining d‘screpancy. In fact, the speed of the American shell, considering these things, is the faster. The trajectory of the German shot at- tained a height of but 21,456 feet, nearly two Miles less than the American, while its muzzie velocity was lees than 2300 feet seconds.

Not only that, but nearly 150 shots can be fired {n a m ute by the new ships’ batteries, while 10 could be fired by the Boston. The new six-inch guns will be 50 calibers long, or 25 feet. The majority of the new English six-inch naval guns have a length of 23 feet § inches. The Engitsh six-inch weapons employ shells weighing 100 pounds. When using a charge of % pounds of cordite the Eng.ish six-inch gun yields & muszie velocity of 2750 feet, with a re« sultant in musgzie energy of 5340 foot tons. It covered 11 1-8 OWing to the enormous velocities afforded by the new gun the necessity of keeping down the weight of navy shells no longer ex'sts, and already steps are being made looking to an increase in the weight of pro- jectiles for a number of naval calibers. From what can be learned the new weights wiil approximate closely to those now em- ployed by the army. The navy eight-inch gun uses a 2%-pound shell, the army-eight- inch gun a 300-pound shell. The navy 1%- inch gun employe an 8%-pound projectile, the army | for distance at its trial. miles. It was a 9.2-inch ealiber and was regarded for years as the marvel of the age. ts. performance was not surpassed until 1893, when on the Moppen range in Ger- many, a Krupp gun of the 9.45-inch variety was fired a distance of 12% miles. This has stuod since as the longest range on record. The new gun surpassing this by over two miles is indeed remarkable. The time consumed by the German shell in its fillght was 12 seconds less than that occupied by the new American shell. The as compared with 1060 pounds for increased distance in part accounts for 12-inch. ee the pro hable rang of the gun.

In addition there are certain minutae of rig and a wide difference in the cut of the Yankee and the Eiglish sails, which tell a SUre story to the nautical “sharp.” Bat When one yacht is green and the other is White it is scarcely necessary to lay any #ivess on minor points of difference. Bui to show how easy it is to make a ——l blunder in this respect, an Incident may be quoted which ovcurred in the cup race of 18% hetween Defender and Valkyrie Iil. A famous American yachting expert was en- gaged at great expense to write up the first race for a New York even!tnge newspaper, and a berth for him was found abear’ the cable steamer, Mackay-Bennett, manned by an English skipper and a British vrew. De- fender sailed away from the British craft as easily as roling off a log. Capt. Schenk of the Mackay-Bennett, seeing the Yankee boat racing in such glorious style, was so carried away by enthusiasm that he made an eror of judgment. He at onee decided that so swift a boat must be of the Brit!sh bulld, and so up he went to the scribe and quoth he: “What did I tell you, sonny? Just see how the Valkyrie is distancing your oid scow !"’ He supplemented this remark with a tor- rent of rhetoric, and so loudly and confi- dently he assert himself that he per- suaded the vachting expert that it was re- ally Valkyrie that was in the lead, wliereas it was Defender. Therefore, when a special edition of the evening paper in question came out in the early afternvoon it was printed therein that Valkyrie had round- ed the first mark many minutes in the lead, and that, unless some serious accident hap- pened, victory was hers. The yachting ex- pert found out his mistake later !n the day, and vowed that he would never allow an enthusiastic forelgner to make him lose his head again. The moral of this Is that if Valkyrie had only been painted green sich a blunder couldn’t possibly have been made. When a vesse) is not at anchor she is sald to be “uncer way.”’ Columbia and Sham- rock will in all probabllity b towed out to Sandy Hook Lightship, which Is, if practic- able, to be the starting point of all the cup races. There they will dodge about until the signal for them to start is given. The first race is 15 miles to windward or to lee- ward and return, which means that the yachts wilil start elther right tn the teeth of the wind (if they go to windward) orf in the exact direction of the wind if they go to leeward. The diagrams show each point of Sailing. The second race will be over a triangular course of 30 miles, and the third similar to the first. Americans hope that these three will be the only ones salled, as they expect the Columbia to score three straight wins. But the winner of three races out of five does the trick. When a cup racer is running before the wind she carries all the canvas the wind wiil fill. The foremost sail is the balloon jib topsail. which is spread from the end of the bowsprit to the head of the tupmmast. On the starbuard side an immense spinnaker is set, its “‘clew"’ or corner being bauled out to the end of the spinnaker boom, and its “‘head,’’ or upper extremity hoisted to the head of the topmast. The clubtopsail, which !s used only in moderate weather, is set between the head of the topmast and the end of the gaff and stretched beyond the extremities of both by means of the topsail yard and the top- sail club. When the yacht is close hauled on the port tack in a twhole sai] breeze it will be noticed that the balloon jib top- gail and spinaker have been taken in. In their place we see a baby jib topsail, a jib and a foresaill. When a yacht is on the port tack her main boom is over to star- board. When she ls on the starboard tack her boom is over to port. Beating to windward ts a process by means of which a vessel forces her way by a‘series of angles in the direction from which the wind is blowing. A study of this process will show how she manages to gigsag her way out of the bay to the open séa. There is so much talk nowadays about the different types of yaoht—fin keel, bulb- fin keel and centerbroard—that the tyro may wonder what on earth the terms mean. A study of any good diagram wiil explain these. It is only necessary to add that the ecenterboard is hoisted and lowered through a s‘it In the Keel and fits snugly in a water-tight box in the hull. The centerboard, bulb-fin keel and the or- dinary fin-keel, which the Shamrock and the Columbia possess in common, are easily located, ==> > = See a ~S> BO SN DAWA Weess> ~ ee —— —. «es a < Se ~~ Seem & SAANAAN NRA ~~ NRA Ss = .

He was born in Lafayette County of well-to-do and intellegent parents. He went to schoo! and acquired a good education. His parents removed to Bates County, and in a few years their small fortune was gone. Doug- las worked as a farm hand. One day, while in the fleld he was stricken. His mind was a blank from that time. His parents asked the county to care for him. He was sent to the poor farm. With that Douglas Cox disappeared from the world. His father died. His mother removed to Oklahoma, and all trace of her ts lost. So far as the ———s know he is the last of his fam- y. The county farm of Bates County has been a standing disgrace for years.

A further promise was made that the Insane man, Douglas Cox, should be sent to the asylum. The same afternoon the court ordered repairs to the poor farm. In another day the Sheriff, acompaniel by the presiding judge, took Doug.as Cox to the asylum at Nevada. The women of Butler are proud uf tnefe achievement.

It is only three miles from Butler, and a more des- Olate spot cannot be found tn the whole county. Few ever pass that way, and those that have business in that locality usually avo:‘d it If possible. To the small boy and girl it is usually po!tnted out as haunted, and no child in the county will go anywhere near it after sundown, In this vault of human neglect Douglas Cox passed seven years of as miserable ex- istence as could be designed. He was hand- cuffed and the irons welded on his wrists. His clothes were removed because, it was claimed, he tore them from his body. He would have died had not four Butter ladies found him in his awful condition. Mrs. Max Weiner, Mrs. H. E. Percival, Mrs. T. J Day and Mrs. Dr. Everingham, all prominent society women of Butler, went out to the county farm a few days ago. They were horrified at the situation as they found it there. Without waiting a day they appeared before the County Court of Bates County, consisting of Judges West, Wimsatt and S:ith, all leading farmers of the county, and filed the following protest: The Poor Farm is not tn a suitable con- dition.

PARIS, Sept. 8. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. T HE Paris Exposition will break an will open on time. No other world’s fair has done this. The great and little art palaces are almost completed, and the ugly buildings which hid them from the ever- passing throngs on the Champs Elysee have world. been torn down. The beautiful bridge across the Seine is nearly finished. The bullders are’changing their attention from the framework to the decorations of bulld ings, and the railway lines are already beginning to feel the great rush of freight business which will clog their lines from now unti) after the exposition opens, Al- most every botel in Paris has rented many, if not most, of its best rooms for the first weeks of the exposition. The greatest rush will, of course, be during the first weeks, because intending visitors realize that after those weeks are over the fuzz will be off the peach to some extent. It would scarcely be fair to say that the exposition will “wear out’’ so quickly, but the French show is not being prepared on the scale of broad and brilliant beauty that was the magnifi- oent characteristic of our own World's Fair in Chicago. The buildings, with two excep- tions only, are of even a more temporary type of construction than were our filmsiest structures, and their plans include much work which architects characterize as “ginger? bread.” This will be affected by the lapse of time, and the brilliant paints which are everywhere to be used are likely to grow dingy. That only two bulldings—the great and little art palaces—ere being built of the famous French sandstone is a temporary blessing to all Paris. The dust from this , Sandstone ts so white and so penetrating “that It becomes « public nuisance. It has | ehanged the color of che roadway in the Champs Elysee.

This has also had its effect on the health of the trees which have helped to make this fam- ous avenue one of the most beautiful in the The stone of which these superb buildings are being constructed is taken from the very bowels of Paris, from the same stratum of underground France in which the catacombs were dug. It is soft and very easily worked when first taken out, but it hardens after exposure to the air. One of the early wonders of the show is the famous diamond saw, which now continually at work on the exposition grounds, and which cuts this rock a sharp knife might cut white cheese—there- by adding to the dust which pervades Paris and blows and blows and blows, until your eyes and your ears and your mouth are full of It. No such machine was ever made be- fore. It is about seven feet in diameter, and its sawing edge is studded with Bra- zillan diamonds or “‘boorts.” It has cut stones two feet thick and 12 or 14 feet long in @ quarter of an hour. The same work would take three or four days of a compe- tent man's time. The most interesting of the scientific ex- hibits will be the great telescope, built on an entirely new plan. The difference be- tween 240,000 miles and 42 miles is said by its projectors to be what this great instru- ment will bring about when the anxious American looks at the moon through [t.

The distinction between the Red In- dians and the Mound Bullders was long since obliterated. The Crecks are all of the same nativity now. “One of the strong evidences of the intel- ligence of the Creeks is thel: recognition of human excellence, as shown by their at- titude toward the white man. They have always welcomed the white man to their midst, as they welcomed Capt. Porter, the general's ancestor, when he had been mis- treated by bis own people. The contrary is the case with the Delawares. They dis- countenance inter-marriage with whites. and as a result they are practically living on the bounty of the Creeks. “The Creeks admire superiority In al! things, and they seek it.

The chief of the nation Is called the Mother of the People. The district rep- resentative in the council] is the mother of the people of that district. “The Creeks have no use for a useless man. He cannot marry, for no mother will give her daughter to him. They do not want a worthless man to have children to become a burden to the nation. But a man whvu distinguishes himself, or even becomes a credit to the community will have no trouble about marrying. Mothers will seck him for their daughters.

PICKERING, dil- rector of the Harvard Observatory and one of America’s foremost au- thorities on astronomy, has in course of construction at Cambridge, Mass., the long- est telescope in the world. He believes it wil] also be the strongest. It will have the greatest focal range of any instrument ever designed. The Bruce telescope, also the invention of Prof. Pickering, !s the shortest in ex- istence and the most successful of any in the way of photographing the heavens. It is now in use at Arequipa, Peru, taking photographs of the sky for Harvard. One of the latest plates received, 14 by 18 Iin- ches, contains a reproduction of 40,000 stars, taken with a single exposure, Praf. Pickering is so confident ‘that he will be able to build the proposed new tele- scope that he has already purchased the necessary lenses. He has Issued a circular letter to the friends of Harvard Observa- tory. in which he states that whereas the cost of the Bruce te'escope was defrayed by a benefaction of $*,000, the total cost of the telescope which be now des!res to bulld wil not exceed $14.000, although the focal length of the Bruce telescope is only 122 feet, while the foca) length of the proposed telescope wil approximate 175 feet. The lens of the new telescope will be much smalier than that of the famous tele- scope at the Yerkes Observatory at Lake Geneva, Wis., for that is #@ Inches In diameter and the largest tn the world. but Prof, Pickering anticipates obtaining some results with the new Instrument which nei- ther the Yerkes nor any of the other fa- mous telescopes have been able to give. The Yerkes telescope, with its 44-inch lenses, has a focal length of 67 feet, the greatest yet constructed. In Parts they are build- ing a telescope which will be in al) ways greater than the Yerkes telescope, for it is to have a lens 60 inches in diameter and be something over 100 feet in length. telescope, while the larger one which it is expected to have ready for the Exposition of next year is to be a horizontal tele- scope. Prof. Pickering’s new one wil] be of the same pattern. He hopes to have it completed by May 28, 1900, In time to view done in the way of heavenly observations and photography by explaining that with the Li-inch photographic telescope, with a focal length of about 18 feet, which is now in use, the maximum diameter of a photograph which it !s possible to take of 8M fe | Showing the IVictaod ot Pho.ozraphing the | Heavens. the eclipse of the sun, which will be total in the United States, south of Maryland, on that date.

As a means of showing some of the ad- vantages to be derived from the employ- ment of the proposed telescope, with its ex- treme foca) length, Prof. Pickering draws a comparison between what can now be the moon is only an inch and a half. the new photographic telescope with a plate of the same dimensions, it would be possibile ll times as large in diameter as the one give a wealth of detall which ts impossible Using to secure a photograph of the moon which would practically fill the plate, or be about which can now be taken.

Speetal Correspondence of Runday Post-Dispatch. CURIOUS story Nes behind the pres- A ence here of Maj. A. Lalande, Chief of the National Police of Guatemala, who returned to Porto Cortez this week on the steamer Breakwater. Maj. Lalande came to this city for the purpose of get- ting rid of a elug which a native bandit had fired into his neck. The real reason why Maj. Lalande re- mained so long, and the truth about his movements while here have just leaked out, They constitute a remarkable story. It has been learned from a reliable source that while the major was still at the Infirmary he received a telegram from President Ca- brera of Guatemala instructing him to in- vestigate a Honduranian junta said to be In existence In New Orleans, and, If possible, to break i{t up. Those who have followed the course of Central American affairs during the past year or so are aware that a movement has been In progress, led by Gen. Vas- ques and others, for starting a revolution in Honduras and sejizing the government. The conspirators originally made their headquarters in Guatemalu City, and things were progressing swimmingly when Honduras made a protest to President Cabrera and he proceeded to evict the entire party. Cabrera had been suspected of being in sympathy with Vasauez. and he proved his good faith by unusual ac- tivity In breaking up the nest of plotters. The junta was then transferred to the United States, and was supposed to have meeting places both here and at Mobile. It was for the purpose of locating and possibly disrupting the local end of the combination that Lalande was instructed to tarry a while In this city. JUNTA IN NEW ORLEANS BROKEN UP. Major Lalande ts a first-cless detective, speaks Spanish iike a native and has plenty of grit. He was not long tn getting a clew, and eventually located the junta In a euite of rooms in an old house on Bourbon street. The next thing was te find out what the plotters were doing, and to that end Lalande called at the house one morning and engaged the two adjoin- ing rooms. He represented himself as @ Californian who was in bad health and wanted rest and quiet. When Lalande got possession of the roome he carefully removed a patch of wallpaper and dug out the laths and p'as- ter In the partition that separated him from the Vasavez headquarters, This left only a thin shell of paper on the other side and he readily punched several cone venient peep holes, hidng traces of his work by hanging a picture over the exca- vation. Thus prepared for both seeing and listening, he mounted guard for a nume- ber of nights, while the revolution'sts met and laid their plans within a dozen feet of his nose. Not only did he hear every word that was said, but he saw and iden- tified all the members of the group. One of the practical] results of Lalande’s detective work was the upsetting of a well-laid plan to ship a number of guna to Porto Cortez. . Later on the members of the Junta were quietly notified that ail their secrets were in posseseion of the Guatemalan and Hon- duranian authorities, and they iost no time in scattering, while the okt headquarters on Bourbon etreet were closed up and nave not since been oocupled. There was so much consternation when it was learned that Lalande had spled upon the meetings that it is extreme y doubtful whether any effort will be made to resuscitate the move- ment, — The Yerkes telescope {Is an equatorial GEN.

This fact is recalled by the marriage fast week of this young woman to Capt. Trevelyn Napler of the English Navy. Prince George is the only surviving son of the Prince of Wales. "Miss" Seymour, as the Queen and the Church of England deciared her to be, is the mother of the Prince’s two children— & boy and a girl. For the sake of their mother he renounced in writing every claim he had to the Eng- lish throne. His father, the Prince of Wales, compelled him to marry the Princess May of Teck. This young woman had been the wife of Prince Edward, Duke of Clarence, elder brother of Prince George. Within a month after her husband's death, she was ogling the younger Prince and he was finally forced into a marriage with her. This marriage caused an estrangement between the Prince and Princess of Wales and endless trouble to Queen Victoria, When they were visiting In Ireland after Princess May became Prince George's wife, she came upon him conversing with his former wife—now Mrs. Napler. An exciting Scene resulted, and the outcome of it was that the Archbishop of Canterbury, In his capacity as Primate of all England, pro- claimed from the altar steps of the Chapel Royal, St. James, that there was no legal or ecclesiastical obstacle to the marriage of Prince George to the Princess May of Teck—in other words, that the marriage between Prince George and Miss Seymour Was not legal, though the ceremony was performed by an Episcopal clergyman, be- Cause the agreement was not recognized by the Queen, who its the head of the Church of England. Prince George is now living unhappily with his royal wife. Miss Seymour is mar- ried to Capt. Napier. Albert Edward and the Queen are satisfied. The Princess of Wales is greatly grieved. It is a curious fact that both George III. and George IV., prior to their elevation to the throne, contracted marriages with wo- men of less exalted birth. These marriages were annulled. All of the documents in regard to Prince George's marriage were destroyed, the pre- text being that the ceremony was legaily and ecclesiastically invalid, According to the royal marriage law enacted during the reign of King George III., with the object of preventing King George IY., then the Prince of Wales, from marrying Mrs. Fitzherbert, any matri. monial alliance contracted by a Prince or Princess of the reigning house without the sovereign, and the cogni- gance of Parliament, was invalid, legally, as well as ecclesiastically, the sovereign being the supreme head of the State Church of England, and as such, the right to with- hold his license for any religious ceremony. eanction of the ly Quakeress, Hanna Lightfoot, and de- scendants of this union are to-day in South Africa and the United States. Duke of Wellington and other personages of equal importance are authority for the statement that King George IV. was eccle- Sslastically bound to the beautiful Mra, Fitzherbert when he married Princess Car- oline of Brunswick. ' In the case of Prince George, while the royal family claimed there had been no marriage, the very fact that the Arch- bishop of Canterbury considered it neces- sary to make the announcemtnt he did was regarded as indicating that there must be some reason for excusing the future King of England tn the sight of his countrymen, while the peculiar way in which the arch- lepiscopa] declaration was worded led to its being construed as a diplomatic equi- voeation rather than a straightforward statement. The nature of the royal marriage act ecclesiastically and legally annulling any union contracted hy a British royal per- sonage, without the consent of the sovere eign, and the knowledge of Parliament, rendered it possible to proclaim the fact that no union had taken place. The publicly expressed distaste of the Princess of Wales for her only surviving son, George, to Princess May of Teck, was ascribed in England to the horror felt by this pious royal lady at the Idea of her boy marrying his dead brother’s flancee at a moment when he had a wife, and. it is added, two children, al- ready living. Certain is it that the attitude of the Princess of Wales toward her daughter- in- law was characterized by such openly dem- onstrated aversion, as to become a pubilo scandal. At length the Queen Interfered, with the result fhat the Princess of Wales drove round the park one afternoon with the Duchess, the circumstance exciting much attention. In fact, the newspapers at the time waxed eloquent over the reconcilla- tion of the Princess and the Duchess. It may be added that the Engtish laws of Ilfbel are strict. It ts difficult, therefore, to understand why Admiral Sir Seymour and the royal family should have permitted the name of Mary Seymour and of the Duke of York to be associated together in print 60 constantly as man and wife, without taking legal steps to stop press references to the matter, unless it were a subject that did not bear dential. If there has been any ecclesiastical union between the lady who is now Mrs. Napier and the Duke of York, It must be confessed that the Seymour family have acted with a discre:ion anda tact and a savoir faire be- yond all praise. For they hayg never pre- sumed on this affair, and that {ts probably why the Queen and the Government have simply overwhelmed Miss Seymour’s father with every kind of honor and distinction. Prior to the marriage of the «Duke of York, Seymour was second in command of the Mediterranean squadron and had re- ceived no order or distinction from his sovereign. To-day, as Admiral-in-Chief of the marriage of- -_ iki "Le 5Eh* i" at ®t a of that great naval stronghold, he holds what is regarded throughout the naval pro- fession as its most juicy plum, the office being am exceedingly lucrative one. He has been decorated by the Queen with the Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath, and has been overwhelmed with honors and distinctions. These tokens of royal favor have not been granted in recognition of important services to the State In connec- tion with his profession. The natura) infer- ence is, that his rapid promotion, as well as the marked favor which he has re- celved from the Queen and the Prince of Wales, are due to the circumstance that by his discretion he has extricated the Duke of York and the royal family from an awkward predicament. For there ts no doubt that had the Brit- ish public positive knowledge of the Duke of York's secret union to Miss Seymour, public feeling would have been go strong as to prevent his marriage to the Princess, who consented to become his bride. Indeed, the marriage could hardly have become known without attention being called to the declaration said to have been made by the Duke while his older brother was stil] alive.

GERORGD FREDERIOK ERNBST ALBERT. This document might have an awkward look if brought to light; might even have political consequences, It Its therefore just as well to keep Admira) Seymour good- natured. It is asserted that Miss Seymour has had ae 5 an annuity of $10,000 a year settled upon her by the Crown in consideration of keep- ing her mouth shut. Of course, no one can say with certimde whether this is true or not. But $10,000 a year is the customary sum under such cir- cumstances.

Although sole owner of an estate approximating $1,- 000,000, he scorns his wealth and stsives to live as humble a life as did Jesus Christ among men. Mr. How arrived in this city one day last week from the West, feeling that he had a great task before him and seeking the means to perform it. He announced to a friend that he wanted work. The friend, who finds work for hundreds of un- fortunate men every year in the Bureau of Charities tn Brooklyn, sought it for him just as he does for tramps who want to reform, for sailors who have outgrown thelr usefulness at sea and for the riffraff of humanity. There was almost nothing the rich man would not do; even a menia) place, it was said, would be acceptable to him. He was pronounced somewhat dex- tarous with his hands, qu.ck at any trade @lmost, but skilled in none, and ambitious just then to learn how to nurse the sick in order that he might be more useful to the lowly in his wander.ngs. Imagine the Christ as the great Italian masters have paiuted him and the reader will get an idea of this man.

He is @ gaunt, spare man, with a long slim face, long silm arms and hands, The Italian masters did not paint the Christ as a man attenuated by a meager diet and privation, but this man is so suggestive of the Christ of italian art in his movements that to meet bim is to receive an impression that the Christ, too, was such a man. It is ro feel that Christ was more lke him than like his pictures. As for his face, that of the man who impersonates the Savior in the Passion Piay at Oberammergau has not more of the Civine attributes than his. Mr. How ocmmenced his propaganda work last spring.

He could find nothing wrong with him, but refused the money. Mr. How Is still trying to dispose of his inheritance, but friends have almost per- suaded him not to be too rash about It. He maintains stoutly that, while his legal right remains, he still has no moral right to the money, and refuses to touch [t. His father, the late J. F. How, was vice-presi- dent of the Wabash Railroad. The widow and another son look after the estate. When Mr. How arose one day last week &@ warm breakfast awaited him on the table of a college chum who was his host. He d.d not eat It, not because he cou.d not afford it, for it was free. He went instead to the Medical Mission. In Fulton street, Brooklyn. Walked over a mile to reach it, and there he bought a breakfast of pea soup, bread and coffee, which cost 8 cents. He Is a strict vegetarian and eats no meat. I[t took grt. an observer thought. to leave the beefsteak and savory coffee of his host and eat the pea soup in the Medl- cal Mission on a hard bench and at a wooden table without a cloth It would take grit, at least on the part of most men, but it seemed to be no effort for Mr. How. As he sat at the table an orthodox preach- er accosted him. The preacher did not quite understand Mr. Howe, but it was ap- parent that he understood the preacher. “What kind of Chr.stian work are you engaged in?’’ the preacher asked. “The hardest thing I have to do,” Mr. How replied. “is to get away from the Christ and the church, as commonly under stood, so as to use what judgment I have mysxelf.’’ “You are a Unitarian, I believe?’ preacher asked. “I am not a member of the Church.” “Then you are not a Christian,” rejoined the preacher. “Perhaps I am more of a Buddhist than a Christian, though something of a Chris- tian, too,” sald Mr. How. “Sometimes ! th.ok I am more of a Buddhist than @ Christ-an. Sometimes more of a Christian than a Buddhist.” The preacher would not understend. He turned red In the face and looked aghast. Then he walked away and meditated while Mr. How finished his frugal meal. Mr. How wa.ked acsoss the Brooklyn Bridge when it was finished, and up town in Manhattan; walked all the way, appar- ently not any reason except principle. Ail the Ume he carried a tin lunch pail on his arm, such as workmen take to fac- only his had no cover and was the Unitarian It may have been on a dump heap, or wherever it had thrown away, for all anybody knows. What he meant to do with the pail, which was not wholly clean looking, he would not say. He carried it empty on his arm all day, and it gave him the appearance of a workman—ao amateurish workman at that—if it served no other use. Mr. How went back for his tdeals to the beginning of the Christian era, and start- ed on the piane of the easly followers of Christ. He sesoived to renounce the world and to extinguish himself. He will not talk about himseif, and he means to go through life with just as little as he can subsist on, doing all he can for other men. The vanity of ministers eaget for big salaries and preaching in superd churches he has contrasted with the eariy aposties, and Was noi long in making up his mind which to folluw, for he had al- seady resoived to dcvote his life to Chris- tian work. The early monks had subuor- dinated themselves as the Christ did. Mr. How would not take monkish vows except by resolve in his own mind, but having once resolved, nothing should swerve h.m from his course. He began by ext.nguishing se.f so far as he cuvuld by simpiicity of at- tire, abstinence and frugai iiv.ng. A friend remembers when he arrived at Meadville, Pa., from Harvard, eight or nine yeara ago to attend the Evangeiica! School. He had a banjo and a dress guilt in his outfit. He was one of the fashiun- able young men and a favorite with the fair sex. When the left the banjo, the dress sult and his socia! pleasures had been cast aside forever. Among his classmates were Frankiyn Quinby, Chairman of the Ways nd Means Committee of the National mocratic party in this city, Fisher Ames of st. Pau,, E. M. Lischer, long associaied with the Department of Charities and Cor- rection in this city and a member of Tam- many Hal., and the Rev. H. C. Farwell, a Unitarian of Saiem, Mass. They organ- ized a series of people’s meetings and in- vited such men as Francis Peabody of Harvard and Judge Richmond, the Spirit- ee” Xe to address them. How had spent years in thought, the outcome of which and of the meetings was @ pean to estadlien a new bro. herhvod among men, where it is, he thinks, sadly needed. It {ts the Brotherhood of Daily Life. One might think that, having done so much for it, Mr. How would take the highest office in the direction of its affairs, but not so. He would not put himseif for- ward in any way. He would not seem to put the brotherhood forward either, save in ia teachings. “There isn’t much of the brotherhood,” Mr. How admitted to a the day before. been reporter, “it exists in spirit rather than hood have been held in this a the t Se a ee a ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ke oe Sc tt i tia ti te tat ta te ee ee cK a aK 7 ?

The meeting last year was attended by Mr. and Mrs. Franklyn Quinby, Mr. end Mrs. B. M. Lischer, Lincoln Browa, then of the Hale House, a social] settlement in Boston, and H. C. Farwell All agreed that the aim of the new Brotherhood should be to promote social justice, and a resolution went through that it have a se'f- eupporting member in the fleld to do prop- aganda work, knowing that this would be Mr. How. It was also resolved that each member should plan a way and try to do something to reach the people. The meeting last week, he'd at 6 Scher- merhorn street, Brooklyn, was attentled by nearly all these persons except Mr. Quinby. Mrs. Charles T.' Catlin of 48 First place Brooklyn, was elected directress; Rev. H. C. Farwell, secretary, and Rev. Irving Bea- man of Meadville, Pa., purser. A Commit- tee on Literature was elected, Mrs. Frank- lyn Quinby, Rev. H. C. Farwell and Miss Cornelia A. Acker being the members, The plan of the Brotherhood is taken wholly from some of the orders itn the Apostolic Church. The members were banded together to go where they were needed to do good, especially among the very poor. That they might not prove a burden to the people, it was felt they should be able to support themselves by the work of thelr own hands, while thus they woud come in close touch with the common people. Mr. How explained that while organized charity was designed to give material ald, the Brotherhood of Dally Life was fundamental tn its scope and de- signed to cure the evils of society by a rad- ical regeneration. To promote socta) jus- tice should be Its alm. Social Justice, he explained, meant that every person should find his proper sphere tn life, and be digni- fled, not dishonored, in it. The miliionaire’s son should drive the dray, and the dray- man’s son, if fitted, should be elevated to the bench. Soctety should discover fitness. single out genius'and trem each person uac- cording to his deserts. This, he explained. would be to give an equa! opportunity to all youth and simp'y live out the Christian idea. Christ preached the coming of a king- dom. What he really wanted to establish. Mr. How sald, was a brotherhood. When asked whether he .expected that other rich men would give up thelr wealth as he had done and help the poor, Mr. How sald: Ae “The idea of the Brotherhood would make @ man more careful of the Bene . good. Then he would not be so anxious for a big salary. By making all the “e ple feel their own influence, and a much each one would do, the B hopes to bring thig about.

Mr. How has persistently refused to the Brotherhood be identified with any ¢ nomination. He hopes that all ch time will send for its members to do € tian work.

Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. VELINO ARREDONDO, who on Aug. %, 1897, assassinated President Juan Idarste Borda of Uruguay, and who has been twice convicted of the crime and condemned to death, has been finally acquitted of the charge, and a howling mob of political intriguers carried the ac- quitted assassin on their shoulders through the streets, while thousands of bouquets were strewn upon the path leading to the Italian hospital where Arredondo was taken. Uruguayan justice is remarkable in this particular instance for the fact that the jury found him guilty of each indictment, yet acquitted him as a martyr to the cause of the people. The third trial of Arredondo was set for the last session of the court of June. On the day his case was called neither prisoner nor consul was in court. Investigation showed that Arredondo was feigning i)l- ness. President Cuestas also gathered in- formation that the courts had been tainted with political inuences. He immediately or. dered Arredondo to be brought before the court and his trial to proceed, and the re- sult of the trial was ‘‘guilty, but acquitted.” During the patriotic celebration of Aug. 25, 1897, an anniversary similar to ¢he Fourth of July, President Borda left the executive bulldings to review the troops. Fot more than a week prior to the day in question the press of Montevideo had been loud in proclaiming President Borda a thief; that he had bankrupted the nation; and on the floor of the Chamber of Deputies he had been de- nounced. The Nacion and the Espana, prominent Spanish and pro-Spunish papers, respectively, had cried editorially for some one to riq@ the nation of Borda. They had expressed the hope in cold, black type, that he be assassinated, and asked the publio if there was one among them that would be the nation’s martyr. Arrendondo, a native, of Spanish descent, was considered a rising politician of the wardheeler type. He had read of the howl- ing of the pr4&s, and on the day of the na- tional anniversary he had armed himself with a revolver with the deliberate intent of killing the Pres‘dent, as he confessed at his first @ial. As the President appeared Arredondo stepped from the crowd, and with deliberate aim sent a bullet into the President’s heart. Ten minutes later Borda ‘was dead and the two papers mentioned iissued extras lauding Arredondo, and a national anthem was composed in commem- oration of this act. At daylight on July 2 last, a battalion of the infantry marched to the Italian Hos- pital, where Arredondo was supposed to be ill, and took him to the Court of Appeals. Three judges were in waiting to try the case. Arredondo was arraigned, and, through hig coungel, entered the plea of “not gullty,”’ although at the two previous trials he had pleaded guilty and supported his plea with an unsolicited confession that he had murdered President Borda after due deliberation. The public prosecutor made a vigorous and patriotic appeal to the jury for a ver- dict of guilty, showing the injustice to the nation of any other verdict. The jurors were exhorted to perform their duty as men and Uruguayans, fearlesa of conse- quences or public clamor of rebellious sen- timent. Dr. Melian Lafinur, in behalf of the ac- cused, made a most impassionate speech in which he painted in vivd colors the pollit- ical pollution of office under President Borda and the attitude of the press of Uruguay against him. “You, ag jurors,” he said, “have the right to acquit the man who, at the risk of sacrifice of his own Mfe, has rid the nation of its vilest enemy, and who dared to use his revolver to save the country, from unmentionable misery. The whole country had placed the revolver in Arredondo’s hands, and no jury WHY MONTHS ARE CONSIDERED LUCKY OR UNLUCKY lucky month in the calendar? Why is it considered unlucky at all? Strange contradictions confront the in- quirer. For example, among the ancient Romans the month was consecrated to old men, yet in modern times its very name is @ synonym for the early or gay part of life: Hail, beauteous May; that dost inspire | Mirth, and youth ami warm desire. John Milton apostrophized it thus, and we remember Tennyson's “Queen o the May.” Certainly they do not give the month a bad name. The truth is that May was libeled when the world was young—when magicians had people under their thumb. The old sooth- Sayers created a prejudice against May by speaking of it as a “malignant month” when they ought te have said “a month much maligned.’’ The belief in lucky and unlucky months and days appears to have been taught by the magicians of ancient Chaldea, and we learn from history that similar notions af- fected every detail of Babylonian life, thou. sands of years before Chirst. Facts and figures in this age, however, are powerless to destroy geome very an- client popular superstitions. Take a list ef the unlucky and calamitous events that are constantly recurring throughout the world and it will be some thing like this: Wrecks, railway accidents, inundations, earthquakes, mining disasters, fires, assassinations, hangings or execU- tions, lynchings and suicides. Any month having more than its share ef these dire HY is May considered the most un-events would certainly be open to the charge of ill-luck. But, as you shall see, May is not to be considered an object of dread by mariners or sea-going people, no matter what they think of unlucky Friday. The loss of merchant and other ships by wreck upon lee shores, coasts and disas- ters in the open sea was estimated at Lloyd’a in 1800 to be about an average of 865 ships a year, or one a day. The average has increased since. In 1830 it appeared by Lioyd’s lists that 677 British vessela were totally lost under various circumstances in that year. In summarizing by the month the world’s re- markable wrecks from 164 to 1882 May is one of the 12 divisions showing the cleanest records, while November, January, De- cember, February and October all get some very black marks. November, however, takes highest rank in the eyes of the fates who are unkind to mariners. November and the other win- ter months have long black nights that are propitious for the workings of thé evil genius who plans shipwrecks, with accom- panying loss of life. ~ In the period named remarkable wrecks credited to November were &, to January 64, to December 48, to February 42, to Oc- tober 40, to August 89, to September 34, to April 8, to March 28, to May 2, to July ®@ and to June il. Even when you examine the record of marine disasters for 1898 you find Novem- ber still taking the lead, with 31 wrecks to its credit. October had 28, February 22, December 20, Geptember 18, January 14, March 18, May 13, April 12, July 14 June 9 end August 7. lway, in ugust Since the introduction of the e@bout 1825, historic records prove the matter of steam car accidents carries the palm for misfortune, Only the memorable accidents, attended with great loss of life, are taken inte ace- count. Here, again, unlucky May is all but cleared of stigma. There were 2 acoldents in Auguct, 21 in June, 18 in October, 17 in December, 16 in September, 13 in January, 11 in July, 10 in May, 8 in February, 6 in November, 4 in April and 3 in March. October claims the highest percentage of the world’s fatal inundations. April, on the other hand, which people naturally expect to be a soaking month, is hardly second in the scale. Take Haydn's Dictionary of Dates and classify the great inundations from 1400 to 1882 and you will discover that they are allotted to the different months @bout as follows: Eight in October, 6 in January, 6 in Bep- tember, 6 each in March, April and June 4 in December, 4 in May, 8 in February, 3 in November, 2 in July and 1 in August, By way of sustaining the reputation of the ill-starred May, however, it is recalled that the destructive Johnstown flood oc- curred in May, 1889. July heads the list as the greatest pro- ducer of big earthquakes. Looking over the record, covering the period from the year 1186 to 1881, you find that the earth ed its jaws and swallowed cities, to and people 16 times in July. 13 t February and March, u tember and August and only 6 times in January. As regards the percentage of mining dls- asters in each month some genius has fig- ured it out that April gets 123 per cent, Jan- uary and March each 10 per cent, June, No- vember and December each 9 per cent, Feb- ruary, August and October each 8 per cent, Beptember 7 per cent, May 6 per cent and July 4 per cent What season is most propitious for Gres which consume millions in property, de- stroy thousandsof lives annually? Here, it must be edmitted, May makes an unfortu- nate showing. Classifying the most destruc- tive fires in North America from 1776 to 1882, it is seen that there were 9 in May, 8 each in February and December, 7 each in January, April, July, September and Octo- ber, 6 in June, 6 In August and 4 each in March and November. The execution of remarkable eriminals in Engtand, from the time of Guy Fawkes and the gunpowder plot conspirators, wno were executed in May, 166, to 1881, when reduced to tabulation by months, shows April to be the most prol fic In the sinister business of disposing of the wretches who offend against society. May is the worst month for assassine- tions. However, most of the notable kill- ings of this kind took place dGuring oiher months. For example: Lincoln was assassinated in Apri] and Garfield in July. President Carnot of France was assassinated in June; Emperors Paul and Alexander Il. of Russia were both murdered in March; Stambuloff, Prime Minister of Bulgaria was assas- einated in July, Prime Minister Canovas cf i i could condemn him without first condemme ing themselves ard al] of their country~ men. Arredondo preserved the dignity of Uruguay, and now it !s your duty to acquit him, that it may be a lesson and warning to others who are enamored of greed as was Borda.” At the conclusion of this speech there was prolonged applause, in which several mem bers of the jury participated. The judges, although tn apparent tactis sympathy with the cause of the prisoner be- fore them, proposed to adjourn the trial, but the loud protestation of spectators and jury caused them to permit the farce te proceed. Arredondo, fn his own behalf, read 6 cleverly prepared speech in which he @ep- pealed to the political situation of the coun- try at the time of the assassination of President Borda as justifiable of his act, dwelling upon the fact that he was not actuated by selfish motives,-but had risked his own life to save the life and honor of his country. He had killed President Borda. He was glad of it, that it was his good for- tune to serve his people, and he had con- soiation in the fact that his countrymen honored him for it. Amid the wildest confusion hnd applause the judges ordered the jury to retire for thelr deliberation. More than one-half of the jury rose in thelr seats in protest of ad- journment, saying that they had arrived at an agreement. The judges, notwithstand- ing, ordered them to retire, and in eighteen minutes afterward they reappeared with their verdict of acquittal. There was an outburst of applause as the jury delivered their remarkable verdict, that was echoed by the people who had gathered on the outside of the courtroom, and as Arredondo left the courtroom he was completely hidden in flowers, the gathering loudly proclaiming vivas for him, and the pol.ce being powerless to silence or dis- perse the crowd. President Cuestas is non-committal on the case. Three judges who refused te sign the verdict have saved themselves in the eyes of the public, but with President Cuestas it is different. Because of their non-concurrence in the verdict, Arredondo may, at any future time, be brought to triaj on the same charge, provided there can be found a trio of judges who possess moral courage enough to try the case and impanel a jury. . “If Gen. Boca is looking for trouble he’ll find the woods full of it,” is a remark ao- credited to President Cuestas, and, despite the fact that Im a very short time the President of Argentina will become the guest of the President of Uruguay, the latter is in no manner pleased with the as- pect of the political horizon of the repub- lics of Bouth America. The atiention of the leaders in political secrets In South America is centered in the forthcoming meeting of the “A. B. C. Presidents,” as the chief executives of Ar- gentina, Brazil and Chili are now called, which is scheduled to convene at Rilo de Janelpo the latter part of August. Gen. Roca, .Pregident of Argentina, appears as the central figure and mouthplece of the trio, and it is his life's ambition to form an offensive and defensive alliance with Chill and Brazil against foreign interven- tion in South American affaires. Ever since Admiral Dewey sent the Spanish fleet at Cavite to “Davy Jones’ locker,”’ Gen. Roca and the President of Chili have had their heads under the same political canopy, and, although they have failed to jure President Cuesias into their fold, they have put out sufficient bait to catch Brae zil’s chief magistrate, who will become their host and sponsor their secret confer- ences. President Cuestas has pronounced the meeting and its purport as suicidal, but Gen. Roca, who has just spent the last farthing of an appropriation of $93,000,000 in defensive measures, with nothing but one small second-rate cruiser and a torpede boat as receipts for the expenditure, scoffs the idea, and, while his words are not the same as those of Farragut at the battle of Mobile Bay, he says, in effect: “Dama the results; let's go ahead.” At Buenos Ayres Gen. Roca Is personally supervising the Otting out and rejuvenation of the Argentina squadron that will escort him to the metropolis of Brazil, consisting of a battleship, a cruiser, a transport, and @ fast torpedo boat. His persona! military staff of 28 officers and five orderilies have been selected, and his cunning hand has been down in the trouser pocket of the nation for $55,000 pin money with which he will do the honors President Cuestas, as a sociable neighbor, will entertain Gen. Roca just & hours is Montevideo at no greater expense to the nation than the wear and tear of uniforms and accouterments of the army, which will be paraded in his honor. At Rio, the President of Brasil] will be the royal host.

CHICAGO, Sept. 13. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. HICAGO has ai breker-preacher, ( Duke M. Farson. He buys and sells bonds, “Buy cheap and gell dear,” is his motto, as it is of every other dealer. He makes money “hand over fist,”’ the pre- siding elders say, with maybe a shade of envy in their voices, a trifie of human hankering for the cash which ordinarily a presid'ng elder has not. On Sundays Mr. Fareon preaches out on the West Side tn a church which he has built himself in order that he may expound the gospel without let or hindrance In the way that he thinks Christianity ought to be preached. Last week Mr. Farson bought a camp- meeting ground at Ottawa, Ill., and pro- poses to carry on an annual meeting which will put to shame the scant spiritual re- turns from the Lake Bluff assembly. Mr. Farson is a Methodist, and his Metro- politan church out on West Huron and Ada streets is a Methodist institution. But it ts Methodism as the Rev. Duke M. Farso.i construes its mission in the very last days of the nineteenth century. He has ideas of the church militant and the church spir- itual, and he does not begrudge either his time or his money to forward them. The Metropolitan is not the first church which the broker-preacher has built and paid for out of his own pocket. Fors some time after he was admitted to the Rock River con- ference as a minister he conducted serv!l- ces in a tent on Sundays, with prayer meet- ings, class meetings, revivals, and other week-day adjuncts to church work. His people were devoted to him. “Here's a business man whose time is worth money,’ they argued; ‘‘more money in a week than the average man's in a year, and Yet he's giving two-thirds of his time in preaching to laboring people."’ In a little while Mr. Farson put up the Hamlin Avenue Methodist Church. It was not a cheap, slip-shod affair, but a house of solid architectural proportions, bullt as a permanent addition to the property of the conference. After everything was in run- ning order he turned the church over to the Mock River Conference for regular minis- terial supply. In bullding the church and converting a congregation Mr, Farson prac- tically created a business. He established a headquarters and a sa.ary for some min- ister. Heo had a theory that his relig.ous mission is to build up the church in the neglected or least promising districts. He erects churches for people who won't do it for themeelves. His second field is that of the Metropolitan Methodist Church, of which he is now the pastor. Mr. Farson completed the house last spring, after hold- ing services for some months in a hall in the neighborhood. It is a big brick house, furn.shed with an elaborate system of elec- tric lights. On Bunday meetings go on all day, be- ginning at 9 o'clock in the morning aid ending about 10 at night. Mr. Farson preaches at 9:30. He carries into his pulpit the same sanity and sense of proportion which has made him respected in business circlet. He preaches the sort of sermon he thinks his congregation needs. He does not warn them against frivolities of fashion or @ mad rush for wealth. Most of them are fore.gners, poor laboring men, who try to do right according to their iighis. Mr. arson takes it for granted that they are not living in enervating luxury, and he di- rects his plain and simpie talk to very prac- tonal affairs. He talks about “conversion”’ and “change of heart’’ with a capital let- ter. He boiieves in them as John Wesiey and Bishop Bascom believed in them. ‘To Mr. Fareson the “Holy Ghost” ie as real as a bond issue. Sinners are sinners, and he says #0 Without mincing matters. Occa- s.onally he takes a few turns at what he believes to be the incompetency or the lag.nees of brother ministers. He has been known to remark that the board of e.ders might superintend an old ladies’ home very well, but that they don't know how to dulld up a church in these days of heresy trials. Mr. Farson’s interest in his congregation takes a very practical tugn, also. When they get out of work he helps them to find jobs. When they are hungry his hand goes down into his pocket and fishes up some sliver. Despite his independent onslaughts occasionally on the “tyranny” of the Meth- odist church and the slow conservatism of the elders, Mr. Farson is regarded bhigh- ly by the Bishops and conference leaders generally. Among business men he stands high. “Duke M. Farson is Al,"" remarked a prominent stock broker. “He may have queer notions about preaching, don't take much stock in ‘em for my part. but his head is mighty clear and his judgment Straight as an arrow in money matters.”’ Mr. Farson is entirely a self-made man ae far as fortune goes. came to Chicago I had nothing and not much of that,” is the way he puts from Champaign, the city. He had enough to keep him . sired in high school a year. That done with he began clerking for Preston, King & Co., brokers. He and his brother,. John Farson, soon had means enough to go into the banking and brokerage business on their own account. Curiously enough, the two sons of a plain old-fashioned Metho- dist preacher in the country found no trou- fentleman of earnest manner. He severed his connection with his brother's firm in order to devote more time to church work. “You see, John,” he explained, “if I run a business of my own I'll feel free to leave it with the clerks two-thirds of the time. I haven't time to be making money every day in the week.”’ “Well, brother,” rejoined John Farson, | mildly, “‘you can better afford to hire a half dozen men to preach who have all the time there is for it. Money-making will never crowd them a bit.”’ The younger brother had his ideas, though, and so he drew off and began his career of church work. Nevertheless, he makes money. It’s his nature to attract good things in the bus'!ness line. He writes his sermons in the evenings. At his office he gets through a large amount of work in a short itme. In his ideas of religion he differs considerably fsom his brother, John Farson, who is a pillar in the Oak Park Methodist Church. Duke Farson believes literally, in going into the highways and by- ways to gather in the halt, the lame, and the blind. John Farson declares that a great many of his brother’s converts are ‘not worth so very much” after they are converted. Mr. Farson's late*t move is the purchase of 100 acres of ground at Ottawa, IIl., to be used as an annual campmeeting ground. He has bought it and paid $10,000 for it and will run the camp meeting to suit Duke M. Farson. Nobody else will be in authority, although in a genesal way the camp meet- jng will be Method 'stic. “Religion has not lost its grip on human- ity,” says Mr. Farson; ‘the Methodist Church is simply not making close enough connection with God.”’ Mr. Farson is now in Ottawa arranging to build a hotel, pavilion, etc., on the camp ground, which is located on the top of Buf- falo Rock, two miles from*“town. It Is eighty-four miles from Chicago and can be reached from Ottawa, Ill, by street cars. The camp meeting will begin in Au- gust of next year. “We shall have some conversions, too,”’ said Mr. Farson. ASHTARULA, O., Sept. 16. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. EV. BE. T. COYLE .of Andover, Ashta- R bula County, Ohlo, Is ap ojl specu- lator and the pastor of a church. He returns to his congregation each year his entire salary and donates a slice of his private income ‘besides. He has great personal magnetism. Under his pastoral charge the average attend- ance at the evening services in the Andover Congregational Church has increased from some 2 to an audience ranging from 300 to 400. From one of the weak churches of the southern part of this county, it has grown to be the strongest and ranks well with the churches in the two business cen- ters of the county, which lay cla'm to the name city. The prayer meetings on many occasions have been so largely attended that it was found necessary to place chairs in the aisles to accommodate the crowd. The average service is attended by a num- ber which represents one-third of the popu- lation of Andover, men, women and chil- dren. Mr. Coyle’s methods of church work are so different from the methods of all other pastors as to be worthy of especial notes. He is a man who could command a good salary in a city church, but he prefers the rural town to the crowded city, and there- fore came to this church which could only afford to pay $700 per anrum. He believed in the principle that the laborer is worthy of his hire; and does not detract from that principle by refusing to receive his salary. He draws his salary, but spends it back upon the church and congregation. The manner in which he spends his money is also unusual, For instance, last winter there was a special service in a church several miles distant from Andover. which Mr. Coyle was desirous hat the members of his chyrch and Sabbath-schoo] should at- tend. He engaged the necessary number of sleds from the livery stables to carry the entire party and footed all the bills. Spe- | Cilal services at Andover have on several occasions brought large numbers from out- lying districts. At meal time Mr. Coyle would dine all such guests at the hotels at his own expense. Last winter he took his Sabbath-school class of some 40 members for a day's outing to Jefferson. the county Seat of Ashtabula County, some 15 mile distant from Andover. He paid the railroa fare for all the children, and instead of their carrying their dinners in baskets they dined at his expense at the best hotels. Delegates from his church recently attend- ed the Grand River Qonference of Congre- gational Churches, held at Conneaut. On their arrival at the Conneaut depot he en- | gaged a fine carriage to take these dele- gates to and from the church in which the conference was held, while delegates from the majority of the churches in the district walked. To encourage study of the Bible more thoroughly Mr. Coyle offered a $10 Oxfard Bible to all members of his class who would on a certain date pass required ex- amination, relative to Bible truths. At the appointed time a dozen pupils passed mus- ter. The Bibles failing to arrve he grave each pupil $10 to keep until the books ehould come, Now, even some Suiday-schvol scholars might have preferred the $10 to the Bibles, believing that a less expensive book would do as well. But these scholars did not and on the arrival of the Bib.es a few days later, all returned the money und received the handsomely bound books. At Christmas time Rey. Mr. Coyle takes par- ticular delight in mak.ng every one happy with ueeful and valuable presents. bBe- sides these methods of spending his money among the members of his congregation, he spends considerable On improving the church property and. helping the many a objects which appeal to him for He is not closely allied to any denomina- tion and often gives liberally to other de- nominations than the one with which he is engaged a8 pastor. An example of this fact was witnessed at Andover since bis pastorate there. The Methodist cooxre®a- tion built a new parsonage for their pas- tor, Mr. Coyle gave $0 toward the fund without even being asked to do so. Mr. Coyle is really a very wealthy man. Several years ago he became iIh- terested in off speculations in West Vir- ginia which brought him iarge returns. His business interests are very large and require a portion of his time, even at present, to louk after them. His ready cash capital is also large, as .» shown by a ttle incident which happened not long ago )at Andover. He stepped into a printing office to pay for some work which had just been completed for him. He offered the proprietor a $5 bill to change, but the proprietor being unable to make the de- change asked him for money of some ? OTHING AND SP other denomination. Mr. Coyle reaching into his pocket drew out a $1000 bill and asked the publisher if he could change that? A day or so later this incident was mentioned to a banker. The banker, so the story goes, doubted if Mr. Coyle nad $1000, and wae willing to pay a dollar so see the bill, whereupon a committee waited upon the reverend gentleman and asked for the loan of the large amount. The com- mittee was readily allowed to take the Pill to the banker, who, it is said, was «9n- vinced and paid the dollar to the committee. This incident much amused Mr. Coyle, who when the bill was returned to him stated that he would send over 65 more biils of the same denomination if the banker was willing to pay 10 cents aplece to see them. Again the committee waited upon the banker, but he refused to enter into the bargain, Mr. Coyle may be progressive, but he is nevertheless orthodox in his belief and frowns upon all attempts to throw away portions of the Bible. He believes the Bi- ble from cover to cover and teaches no new doctrines in his pulpit. His large au- d'ences are therefore in no way the resul of sensational preaching or a ridicule of orthodoxy. Mr. Coyle’s method of conducting mid- CULATES IN OIL week services ig to ask all who attend to take some part. The response from the large audiences is always hearty and the meetings interesting and enthusiastic. The pasior of this church aleo believes good music to be essential. Each Sunday morn- ing a cholr composed of middle-aged peo- ple is seated in front of the pipe organ and in the evening a chorus of more than 30 young peop.e’s voices discourses music from the same platform. At the last meet- ing of the Grand River Conference of Con- gregational Churches the report of the Andover Church made the most satisfac- tory showing of any church there repre- sented. Mr. Coyle has not always been a member of one denomination. He goes where his services seem to him to be the most needed and he delights in building up churches which are weak. During the present year he has been ordained into the Congrega- tional ministry. Soon after he came to Andover his two brothers also located there. They are also talented young men and pleasant to meet. One is James G. Coyle, an attorney; the other, George B. Coy‘e, a preacher. All three brothers are said to be wealthy, but none so Well off as the pastor of the An- dover Church, street, “he is the whole thing.”’ ad yd WHERE PREACHES IN A RED ROBE AND OWNS THE CHURCH MINISTERS. HE Ni | il | + CHurecn Housr ownep By Rev AW Hopson, Lions, Nesraska WUE LYONS, Neb., Sept. 15. Special Correspondence of Sunday Post-Dispatch. NSTANCES are rare wherein the pastor of a flock owns the church edifice, ac- cepts no salary from the congregation, performs the duties of a sextcn, furnishes light and heat and makes the necessary repairs. Under these novel cond'tions Rev. A. W. Hobson of this city ministers with success to a large number of zealdus fol- lowers. In the common parlance of the Rey. Hob- son is a regularly ordained preacher, at one time or another having been connected with the Methodist denomination and with the United Brethren in Christ. But at this time he professes allegiance to no particular sect. He prefers to be free, to follow the dictates of a new dispensation, which he declares may ere long be given to the world. Rev. Hobson is in many re- spects a remarkable man, but his apparent eccentricities do not carry him so far 48 to cause his neighbors to set him down as a crank. He enjoys the respect of the whole community and bas the reputation of being a sincere man, an original thinker, a fearless speaker and a worker of great energy. His appearance in the pulpit clad in a red robe has caused a great deal of comment, both favorable and unfavorable. On this point Rev. Hobson recently said: “As an answer to the question, ‘By whose authority’ I do these things, I point to the robe I wear (a crimson red). When they ask me what the red robe means, I tell them that they have made the same in- quiry exactly that the Prophet Isaiah did 650 years before Christ (see Isaiah 63:2). I am not permitted to divulge the secret of the red robe at present (though it wil! grad- ually be done as the days go by) further - _ we ed aoe wi WII R DPV. GUSTAVUS TUCKERMAN of Bt. Stephen's Mission, Rev. R. A. Hol- land of St. George’s Church and Rev. J. P. T. Ingraham of Grace Episcopal Chureh are the &. Louls representatives of the Actors’ Church Alliance. Nothing would seem more incongruous than the formation of the Actors’ Church Alliance. Though barely two months old and scarcely known to the world at large, this organization seems to have met a pop- ular want. This is how it came about: A few years ago, when Frederick Warde’s company of tragedians was playing in Boston one otf the actors chanced to drop into Phililips Brooks’ church. The se: mon had nothing to do with the atage, but the actor was inter- ested In the eloquent preacher, who taught self-reiiance and duty to one’s self, as well as duty to one’s Maker. The next day the actor departed for Montreal, but the ser- mon had taken such a hold on him that he wrote to the preacher and thanked him for his words of encouragement. To his surprise Phillips Brooks at once answered the letter and urged the actor to consider well what part he was to play in the world’s great drama and to be certain he was playing a worthy role. CHURCH AND STAGE UNITED IN AN ASSOCIA TION «2 - = paddy’ yy ae \y " day » _- _ Three St. Louis Clergymen Interested in an Alliance That They Hope Will Bring the Foot.ight Favorites to the Altar. At Syracuse, where the company next played, it happened that in the same board- ing house where actor stopped was a nephew of the Bishop of the local diocese. The conversation happened to turn upon the illiberulity of the pulpit toward the stage and the Indifference of the stage to what the pulpit felt or said, when the nephew of the Bishop said: ‘‘Well, I think each side needs the help of the other, and I'm not sure that they are not both on the edge of realizing that.” From this, step by step, the conversation turned to the Phillips Brooks experience and an invitation to call upon the Syracuse churchman was extended. The actor ex- piained how often an actor or an actress is left stranded in a d.stant city or town, or falls ill while on the road and is left be- hind, alone and uncomforted; how much they feel the need of human sympathy and how sometimes spiritual ministrations are yearned for and cannot be had. The good bishop said it was a pity the two professions did not stand together in- stead of at odds, for the emotional in man is closely attended by the histrionic. From time immemorial the church had affected picturesque trappings and hangings in or- der to impress the hearer, and the preacher with dramatic force always proved morg effective than the merely devout man. The stage could and did convey strong moral lessons, and it was one of its tenets that truth and virtue should at length prevail. This second experience with the clergy was too much for the actor; he threw aside the sock and buskin for the cassock and stole, entered the local divinity schoo! in Syracuse, graduated and was ordained. After being an actor for 14 years he has been a worker in the fleld of religion for the last five years. It was this man, Rev. Walter E. Bentley, who conceived the idea of the Actors’ Churelf Alliance. Last week at his home in New York City he outlined the plans of this organization and modestly told how it had come about. To-day the Actors’ Church Alliance has an active membersh-p of about 18, about equally divided between the stage and the pulpit, not to mention chaplains in more than a dozen cities of the United States and Canada. These chaplains have agreed to attend the members of Actors’ Church Alliance who may be in ther respective towns and to extend a hearty and esp-cial welcome to ail members of the profession tg attend services in their churches, : q br i oe i eae oe Te Se K sade aaa © 7 y ha . ee fac Iv ey FP RAS At the same time an ever-increasing num- ber of managers have agreed to put up a bulletin board in their theaters stating which ciergymen in town belongs to the Actors’ Church Alliance, where their churches are, their private addresses and when religious and social services are he!d, to wh.ch actors and actresses are cordially invited. - To ministers of every faith all over this continent a letter has been addressed read- ing, in part, as follows: The time has arrived for the church to help its offspring, the theater: redeem its mission as one of the greatest ethical forces in society, potent to humanize even while seeming but to amuse, and con- tributing so vitally for weal or for woe to the character and destiny of the nation. Man is an bistrionic, as well as a relig- fous animal, and the devotional and the dra- matic elements in bis make-up are, at bot- tom, very closely allied, and together con- stitute the ineradicable ‘‘image’’ in which he was made. Should not the kingdom of God be widened until) she ministers not merely to the devotional and physical in man, but also the esthetical, and so take in bis whole being? Should not the church and the stage, therefore, be brought into closer relations and the chasm—caused by centuries of antipathy and neglect on one side, and misunderstanding and indifference om the other—be bridged? The promoters of this alliance believe that ft should, and so appeal to willing and sympathetic clergymen of all denominations to “‘come over and help us." When we of **the cloth"’ and they of the ‘‘sock and buskin’’ get together in fraternal co- »pera- tion prejodices will vanish and obvious faults and abuses wi!!! presently disappear, for “‘love covers (and drives away) a tmul- titude of sins."’ Will you help us prove our sincerity?

So was one of Mr. Reno’s best horses and a saddle and bridle. In the stable was found the piece of paper on which he had figured. The theft was reported to Sheriff Hermann Barnickol at Belleville. The next day some farmers iiving near French Village went to Belleville and re- ported that they had seen a suspicious- looking man going toward Caseyville on a horse. From their description Mr. Bar- nickol concluded that it was Pepper. He hunted up a picture of the old man and showed it to them. They said it was the original of the picture they had seen. As they were members of the Caseyviile Horse-Thief Detective Association Mr. Bar- nickol advised them to capture him if they could. They returned home and mounted thelr best horses and went in pursuit. At Alton they found that Pepper had traded the horse to D. C. Daly for another horse and $20 and had pushed ahead. As this was in in another county the chase was turned over to Marshal Lowe. Accompanied by a liveryman named Cresswell, Lowe fol- lowed Pepper's trail across Madison and Jersey counties to the Illinois River, and across the river into Calhoun County. Pep- per had reached the home of his niece north of Kampsville Wednesday evening. Friday evening Marshal Lowe came upon him as he was eating supper in his niece's house and arrested him. The marshal took him back to Alton and sent word to Sher- iff Barnickol, who went up and got him. On the way back Sheriff Barnickol told Pepper about having taken Herman Walk- enforth to the Penitentiary a few months ego. Pepper was interested. “For stealing horses, I suppose,” he said, “No, for robbing smokehouses,"’ said Mr. Barnickol. “What!” eald Pepper, dolefully; Walkenforth come duwn so low as tha When State’s Attorney Martin D. Baker looked over Pepper's record he concluded that the habitual crimina! act was meant to apply to such as he. When the grandjury met last Monday at Belleville the first thing ‘has ¢?°° ~ 4 (| : Pema ad phew | — Dy her pupiae ae Mr. Baker did was to bring the case of Pep- per before it. Mr. Baker was taking Pepper to the grandjury rowm, when he asked suddenly: “Pepper, how many terms have you served?’’ “Three,” answered Pepper. “What,” said Mr Baker, serving four terms.” “Weill may be it Pepper. “How many more?’ ‘“‘Now, please don't ask me,”’ said Pepper, with an alr of genuine bashfulness. He told the grandjuross that he took the horse and they promptly indicted him. That afternoon he was brought into court. He affected to be so feeble that Turnkey Wat- tawa had to support him. After he had pleaded «ulilty, he said, “I am getting very old, judge. I don’t fee) like I will live long. I hope you wil] be lenient with me and after @ reasonable time help to get me released. Judge Hartzell said he could make no promises. After he was sentenced the Captain's feebleness in great measure subsided. He became quite spry and needed no assistance tn climbing the jail steps. Just before Sheriff Barnickol left with him for Chester, he was seen in the jail by a reporter of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. “TI cannot tell why I have stole horses,” he said. “I just couldn't help it. A man’s life is laid down to him and he must live it. I have lived the life lad down to me. I am & years old. How many tmes have I served? Four. That's honest. It ts not true that the first horse I stole belonged to the Grant family. I did not know the Grant family. I don’t remember the first horse I stole. That's honest. Anyhow, I don't like to talk about that.

Great plans were made for the asri- val—rooms aired, pies and puddings baked, Gowers gathered, and the children of the hostess were always in clean, shining and curled evidence to greet the welcome guest. Their mother and father, too, were on hand promptly, and a beaming negro deprived her of her hand luggage at the front step. This picture of glowing hospitality could scarcely be improved upon, for one takes it for granted that the guest is welcome. Bvidently times have changed since the odlonial days. A recent review says: ‘In gome large establishments little individual attention is given to the guest. A carriage meets her at the station, she is driven to the house and shown at once to her room, much as if she were at a hotel.

A Perplexed Maiden. [ )' MADAM--I am a young girl 23 years old, and would like to ask your edvics, Two years agé I became ecquainted with a youmg man. He paid great attention te me, and seemed to be very fond of me, and I was very much attached to him. He spoke of marriages ser- eral times. Suddeniy he stopped coming te eee me. I heard nothing from him for several mentha, he having left the city. I felt beartbroken at desertion. In the meantime I became acquainted with am other young man, who has asked me to I do not care as much for him as I first one. Now the other one has come and @ coming to see me again and wants me give up the man whom I have promised to mary I do not feel as if I could trust bim again, theagh I like him best. whom I would ask for advice. Please answer in next Sunday's Post-Diapatch and oblige. BERTHA B. You may have thought you were Reart- broken, but fcertunately you were not. If you had been you would not have accepted tle attentions of the second man. You are only 22 years of age; there is plenty of time yet for you to make such an important de- cision, I should decline to see the man who treated you so badly. He is certainly heartless and selfish. He will not be kinder to you after you are married than before, Men rarely are. You must not marry any man without love. Such a fate is far worse than the life of the most unfortunate old maid. Give yourself plenty of time, my dear, and recollect it is a question of the most paramount importance. You are to decide your own life—the happiness of another, Unless you feel that life without the com- panioship and love of just one man would mean wretchedness, unless you are sure that he deserves your respect ‘and confi- dence, do not marry. A Blushing Employer. Dear Madam—I want you to advise me in the following: I am a etenographer in a downtews office. My employer is a widower. I have the greatest thought in my mind that he does not cate for me, even in a business way. Of coruse I do my work to suit bim and am very quiet is the office. He never since I have been ip the office sald one kind of passing word to me. He just simply dictates letters to me. But te queerest thing of it all is, when 1 addrees him about business matters, or, in fact, no matter what I say to bim, he blushes frightfully and seems to get rather nervous. New I rather think quite a good deal of him, so would like to know what you think from my letter. MAUD. I am afraid you are a very self-conscious little girl. Your employer’s position is the proper one. It is quite possible you im- agine your remarks embarrass him, In any case, you must maintain your attitude by behaving with the greatest discretion and propriety, if you wish to preserve his ré« spect for you. | A Favorite of Fortune. NEW YORK, Ang. 21, 1688, I am a stenographer and typewriter and have a permanent position in a small office near my home, and therefore have no car fare or luncheos expenses to deduct from my ealary. The work ie very light. I do not get any stenographie dice tation, ae I conduct the correspondence meeif. My employer ia all that could be wished for, & kind, considerate man, who is mere like a good friend thad an employer. He places great con- fidence in me; in fact, I take entire charge eof his office. Have been employed bere for over two years, during which time I have had very little advancement in salary. Am 17 years ef age. My salary is all that I could get in any office at the present time, but judging from the past and present, there Is very little chance for much advancement, either in experience or ip sal- ary. Do you think !t advisable for me to stay where I am and “‘let the future take care of iteelf,” as my mother advises me to do, or to give it up at any cost and look for one more desirable in the above perticulars? A OONSTANT READER. Take your mother’s advice by all means, Your position is a most enviable one, What more do you wish, my dear little child at 17 years of age? I think it doubtful tf you could find a situation more desirable. I wish I could procure just such places for hun- dreds of little girls, Sunday Post-Dispa readers, who need employment, and wh would think; themselves more than for- tunate if they could obtain a position, such as you describe your own to be. | Ambitious to Earn Money. I am a girl of 16 and a student of the Broetiys High School. I should Uke to earn something while I am studying, for, although the mosey is not absolutely necessary, it would be so meane be superfluous; and besides, my pride revelts a8 the community. Now, I am German by birth, and speak tbe German language perfectiy, and I am pretty far advanced in French. Do you thiak J could get two or three scholars In those languages, or Is there no chance? My mother thinks there not. If there ts a possibility, bow ebhould I eed about It, and what should I charge? Perhaps there ia something else I might do. Copying te out of the question; I bave tried that. By helping me and as- swering as soon as possible you will greatly odlige Brooklyn, Sept, 1. LAURA A. B.

CHARLES JOSIAH ADAMS, Manager of the Bureau of Animal Psychology, has consented to con- tribute a series of articles to The Sun- day Post-Dispatch on the habits and characters of animals. These articles will consist of authentic anecdotes gathered by the Rev. Mr. Adams in the last 20 years. He will also be glad to answer letters from Sunday Post-Dis- ‘patch readers. Such letters should be addreesed “‘Animal Department, Sunday Post-Dispatch.” To the Animal Department ef the Sunday Post- Diepatch. Will Mr. Adams sallow me to ask what he means when be claime in answering the question: Do animals remember? in the Sunday Post-Dispatch of July 23, that there is no suggestion which awakens a memory in the soul of a man which does not awaken a memory ip the soul of a lower anima)? : Certainly, I am glad to have any ques- tion asked in the line of my work in ) biophilism. But, “M. P.,” in quoting my étatement from memory, does not atate it perfectly .correctly, What I eaid was: I knew of no single suggestion which awakens a memory in the human goul which may not awaken a memory in the soul of a lower animal. | ~~ CHARACTERISTICS«——— OF ANIMALS | Strange Deeds Related by the Friends of Dumb i Brutes to the Rev. Charles Josiah Adams for the a ed Rad There are folk who do not comprehend the comprehensive sensitiveness of the memory of che lower animal, because they do not sympathetically notice the lower animal. Take an ‘llustration of this compreh2n- Sive sensitiveness. No mother was ever more careful of, anxious about, or hys.eri- cally disposed to defend her offspring than {is the rectory cat, Pixie, with regard to the one kitten of the four which she recently bore which was left to her. The colored washerwoman came to the kitchen door wtth her yellow cur. Within the screen Pixie arched her back, raised her hair, erected and enlarged her tail, showed her teeth and spat In a way which was a caution to the interesting little dog. It was a caution also to Mary Ann, When she came again she came without the dog. But her presence suggested the dog to Pixie, and it seemed for a moment as if she would fiy at the intruder. Pixie had never had the slightest antipathy to Mary Anno t!ll she imagined that Mary Ann’s dog might endanger her kitten. Then the antip- athy, as shown, was So strong, that the next time Mary Ann came to the rectory she would not come in till she was sure that Pixie was shut In a shed from which she cuuld not get into the kitchen.

Most of the houseboats now in use are owned by rich families in Minnesota and Wisconsin, especially in Minneapolis. Most of them are luxurious affairs, some of them costing as much as: $20,000. The idea was imported from En- giand, where houseboating on the Thames is a prominent feature of summer life. Two of these boats have traversed the distance from Minneapolis to St. Louis. One of them had a rough experience fiere dur- ing the tornado, May 27, 1896. This was the Roamer, owned by Harry E. Pence of Min neapolis. This beautiful craft, which is really more than a houseboat, was built five years ago at Detroit. Since then she has carried Mr. Pence and his friends three times to the Gulf of Mexico and once or twice to Cuba. This summer she was at Lake Minnetonka. Mr. Pence started on one of these trips " in the spring of 189% and was in St. Louls , X at the time of the tornado. - was blown over on her side. on deck to see what the trouble was and was swept into the river by the terrible gale of that terrible day.

EBOAT IDLER. e.\\ SAMER, _ o taken most delightful outings this summer on the houseboats of the Mississippi, and one and all are unanimous in the opinion that In no other way could so much rest It is a dolce far niente existence to float with the current, and pleasure be combined. stopping where the fancy wills for as iong as the traveler wishes. The people in the small towns and villages are far more in- terested In the strangers than the strangers are in them, and flock to the water’s edge to admire and envy. The Idler, owned by Lafayette Lamb of Clinton, Io., and the Time and ‘Tide, the property of.C..H. Deere of Moline, IIll., are two beautiful examples of what a houseboat may be. The former has frequently con- veyed Mr. Lamb's son and daughter, Chaun- cey R. Lamb and Mrs. Eugene Carpenter of Minneapolis, and their friends up and down the river. It is propelled by the Wanderer, the two bouts coming together as 8nugly as two vestibuled sleepers. The Idler lives up to its name and has no mo- tive power at all. The boats were bulit at a cost of about $20,000, The Idler has a spacious saloon, a hall- way from which leads six large and two small staterooms and a dining room. in the other end of the boat are che attend- ants’ rooms, kitchen and engineer’s quar- ters. The salon is furnished with oriental rugs, luxurious divans, easy chairs and a grand piano. The staterooms contradict the ordinary interpretation of that word, and are furnished much as a bedroom, with ample room for stationary washstands, clothes press and dressing Cases. in the dining room 1s a mahogany table with chairs to match, and in each corner Is a tri- angular china closet with plate glass doors. The service is of Haviland china, and each piece bears the name of the boat. The kitchen and laundry are fully equipped, and there are two bathrooms. Four servants are required to care for the boat, and the corps includes an engineer, a helper, @ cook and a man. \ Above is a promenade deck, with {ts ham- mocks and swinging seats surrounded by @ metallic rail. Four rowboats hang on the deck so arranged that a woman may raise or lower them with ease. | The entire boat is provided with an electric light plant and an improved sewerage system. The Time and Tide Is propelled by the Mascot and is built on much the same lines as the Idler. There is a salon, dining room, kitchen, pantry, two bathrooms and state- rooms for the accommodation of eignt guests below and above is the spacious hur- ricane deck. The boat is lighted with acety- lene gas and is as near perfect as Mr. Deere and the builder could make it. Charles Abert recently returned to Min- neapolis from an outing of three weeks on the Timé and Tide with a party of Rock Island and Davenport friends chap- eroned by Mr. and Mrs. William Butter- worth of Moline. A trip up the river from Moline to Stillwater was made in about three weeks. At night the boat tied up and the travelers amused themselves with vis- iting the small towns, dancing on the hur- ricane déck or with an impromptu musical programme. There is a fascination about a trip on @ houseboat that, once felt, makes everything else seem tame and profitless. Sald one devotee: “It makes you wish that you could stop the course of time and float forever on the rushing waters of the Mississippi.”’ A HOUSEBOAT COMING DOWN THE MISSOURI JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Sept. 15. Special Correspondence Sunday Post-Dispatch. APT. AUGUST E. FOLGER, Known the country over as “Whale Oil Gus,” arrived in Jefferson City Sunday night on his houseboat, the May Be.]. Accompanying him is his companion, “Little Monday,” a youth of 2 years, who has long outgrown the sobriduet given him years ago when he first attached himself to the adventurous whale-hunting cap- tain. The May Bell, in which Gus and his com- panion are leisurely wend:ng their way down the Missouri, was built two months ago in Kansas City for the sole purpose of traversing the Big Muddy and the Mis- sissippi from the metropolis of the Kaw to the Crescent City. New Orleans will be reached in due time, but the two navi- gators are in no hurry to reach the Gulf. The towns along the route will be visited, and much enjoyment is in store for out- siders; for wherever he goes “Whale Oil Gus’ regales the denizens with tales of adventure that smack of the salt air and the place of their enactment. Many of them rival in thrilling interest the most axc.ti g legerd foundin “A abian Nigh¢ts,” and Sinbad himself had no more hair- breadth escapes and adventures than have come to the lot of Capt. Folger. One would FRONT OF ST. LOUI with credentials from the most reliable sources. He has in his possession copies of the leading newspapers of the country which have given columns to relating the incidents of his eventful life. He also has letters from prominent men who vouch for him. Some of these are from points be- tween here and Kansas City, where the in- trepid Whale hunter has lectured. All tes- tify to the interesting character of his lectures. No admission fee is charged. “Whale Oil Gus” comes by his predi- lection for a sea-faring life and his love for the exciting adventures of whale hunt- ing honestly. He was born in Nantucket, Mass., the son of Capt. Henry B. Folger, a whaler of 2 years’ experience. His grandfather, Capt. Alex C. Swayne, fol- lowed the life-of a whaler for 44 years, and sailed both Arctic and Antarctic seas in search of the monstrous mammals. Capt. Folger is a nephew of Charles J. Folger, Secretary of the Treasury under President Arthur. He made his first voyage on board the whaling vessel Mount Wallas- ton, and sailed for the Antarctic seas in search of the sperm oi] of commerce. Righty days from home the vessel made the Island of Juan Fernandez, off the coast of Peru, the home of Robinson Crusove. Here the cook of the party deserted and the youthful whaler was pressed into ser- vice as cook. Gus talks interestingly of this island. In it are nine large caves. One of tirem, the central cave, is supposed to have been the home of Alexander Selkirk, known to fiction a8 Robinson Crusoe, and his man Friday. The natives of this island venerate and highly respect the memory of Robin- son Crusoe. The skeleton of his dog, named by the inhabitants “Yelmer,” is still pre- served in the central cave. Whenever a bone has broken from the skeleton it is wired back in its proper place, and the skeleton has thus been kept intact. A native is elected to take care of the skele- ton and look after the cave home of Crusoe in much the same manner that the Mayor of a town Is chosen. It Is regarded a high honor and one much sought after. This voyage was lengthened to four years and was not a financial success, each man returning to New Bedford $% In debt. Im- mediately after (his another expedition was fitted out which, after a long voyage, re- turned with $4000 clear profit to each man. Capt. Folger says he has been thrown into the alr @ times by whales, and had seen 42 men killed In the pursuit of whale- hunting. Knowledge of the whale ts the long suit of this celebrated whaler. He knows all their characteristics, and says he can give most naturalists and biologists valuable pointers about this an.mual and its bits. Contrary to the general litpro-sion, jhe says, the whale never does damage with {tes mouth. It ts with wide sweeps of his mighty tail that he sometimes works such havoc with those who hunt him to supply to take the stories with the palin yt of salt if it were not for the demands of commerce.

After my third arrest George Withers hired a guard to watch me that night and they took me to the Central Hotel. After I had gone to bed, they came to my room about midn.ght and put me in handcuffs. The next day I was tried for bail, but given no chance. The justice claimed he could allow no bail and I was taken to Greenville jail, where I lay for three days, when I was taken out by my lawyer, Mr, Durham on habeas corpus proceedings. My lawyer took me to Patterson, Mo., before Judge Davis, saying that George Withers had even tried to influence the authorities against me. However, Judge Davis gave me bail, fixing it at $6000, and I reiurned to my work. This put quite a damper on the whole affair and when the case came up for trial it resulted In a hung jury and I was dismissed. I afterwards heard Withers had taken the giri 20 miles into the country 80 that my friends never saw her until after my trial. It was in this trouble that Withers and myself became involved.

Mr. Withers sent me word as soon as he heard of the victim’s confession that he would wash his hands of her, as she was ‘a regular 1 ttle liar.”’ I then sent Withers word that I was glad he had found out the truth, and I did not hold anything against him. And I did not. I transacted business at his bank sev- era) times afterwards. If George Withers were here, I don't believe he would dispute the facts herein related. As for myself, there was no one more painfully surprised to learn of his sudden death in the railroad yards than was my- self. When my third trial was called the State Swept away every charge against me with- out a hearing. Now, after all this trouble, the turns me loose and the people say, “It is too bad;’’ but that does not restore my good name nor restore the hundreds of dollars spent by my people in my behalf— nay, more, this does not bring back to life my poor, unfortunate brother who was murdered, State To cap it all, when I was in jail my friends advised me to leave the State after my trial. I received a letter from my mother, who said “Harry, when you have your trial, we will guard you, as your life has been threat- ened, and some Piedmont people say they mean to do you as they did Kirk.”’ In conclusion, I fear no one, for I trust in God and live on, hoping that some day He will mete out the justice due those who have persecuted me and brutally killed my brother.

Being a close observer, and taking advantage of every opportunity that confronted me, I have learned a great deal about these little people. They express so much intelligence and have wonderful strength and lifting power. The first I will call your attention to is the large black ant, found anywhere in the woods of North America. One day, of wh.le out driving for recreation, I came across a spring of water, clear as crystal, gushing out from the rocks. and rippling over the pebbles which composed its bed. Springing from my buggy and knee!! ng down to drink, my attention was drawn another—she and light dressings of CUTICURA, purest of emollient skin cures. stops falling hair, removes crusts, scales, and dandruff, soothes stimulates the hair follicles, supplies the roots with energy and nourishment, and makes ‘tne hair grow upon a sweet, wholesome, healthy scalp when all else fails.

She was tail and slight, and—so close- ly do the members of a tribe resemble one the twin sister At first they were accompanied by a stout old chief. but he left after circus day. Indian chief patronize the peanut and lem- onade stands, and sit unmoved at the per- formance, and yet stand enthralled before the cages of animals unknown on his native looked like her young husband. It is odd to see an Vel oor prairies. The bride and bridegroom spent three or four days in the town, wandering about as unconsciously as Adam and Bve in the garden. The man was already mas- terful and protecting, the girl shy and sub- servient. Day after day they walked hand in hand, looking at everything, people, shops, cattle, but never speaking to anyone, never even to each other, yet deeply con- tent in the consciousness of companion- ship. They were a living examp.e of the happiness of simp! icity, and while they stayed in the hustiing town, made many a civilized man and woman think of how far their own conduct as wives and husbands fell short of the standard of this uncon- scious Indian pair. Ne by a small knot lying on a large, flat stone, which seemed to be a lot of smal] worms, all rolled up together and squirm- ing as though in terrible agony. Upon closer examination, I found it to be a large black ant and a thousand legged worm in a ter- rible fight, neither seeming to be victorious. At last the ant freed himself from the worm. Then running back a few steps and resting himself, only to attack the worm again in a terrible and more ferocious man- ner, which he did, the fight ending in a few moments about the same as the first. Both seemed to be suffering considerably from the effects, but neither was will. ng to sur- render. After resting a moment or so and rubbing himseif down, the ant takes an- other flerce lunge at the poisonous worm, th.s time to end the combat and bid Mr. Thousand Legs his everiasting adieu. Beginning at the headless extremity of the worm and gathering up about an eighth of an inch of the worm’s body at a time the ant unjoints the spine with his power- ful jaws, almost cutting it in two. This was kept up until he reached the head. He sunk his fangs into each side of the head, turned around once or twice and then, looking at the dead body of the worm, he walked away, apparently perfectly satis- fied with the results of his undertaking. All the time the fight was going-on the worm was doing his best to whip, and one would think all was in his favor. But the ant came out victorious, which is generally the case, Another time while in the woods I came across an ant that had captured a small snake, three inches long and at least a quarter of an inch wide at the largest part of its body. He seemed to be dragging it along with very little difficulty. I made up my mind to watch and see what he was golng ta do with the snake. After a short time he came to a precipice, or the edge of the rock, where I thought he would have to let it go or take a tumble. But he had it planned. After turning the snake around in proper shape, he took hold of the tail and gently lowered it down over the edge of the rock, which was a considerable distance straight down. At last he came to the edge. and. clinging tightly to the little snags and crevices, he lowered it slowly until he had reached the bottom, carrying the whole weight of the snake in his mouth, and then disappeared with the snake in a hole under the rock. | 4.

MARRIED TEN WEEKS, THE HUS- BAND DISAPPEARED. @le Took With Him Ovér $3000 of the Woman's Money and Turned Out to Be One ©. B. McCoy of Cleveland, Ohio. Man’s perfidy, when opposed only by woman's credulity, is invariably successful im its customary mission—the ruin of the woman, financially or otherwise. This proposition forms the theme and Plot band’s death the widow fancied she saw the entire future spread out like a picture before her. She viewed the changes as on the screen of a sograps. There was the woman Living peacefully in a quiet rural home, with serene face and hair that changed from black to silver and then to white as the picture progressed. In the ictures there was but one other ficure, hat of a boy, who grew into manhood and greatness. in the iast picture the woman was feeble and bent, but her face shone with happiness. She leaned on the arm of the man. The man was the pride and admiration of a gieat concourse, And the place was—the White House! CHAPTER II The Circumstances Which Placed the Woman in the Way of the Man, and How They Came About. To give her son a better education than could be had in her own home the widow moved to 8t. Louls. She was economica; and thrifty and not a “grand lady” style of woman. She decided that she would find suitable employment for herself to help defray the expenses of educating the boy and ving in a large city. She applied her- self to the study of bookkeeping at one of the business colleges and sent the boy to one of the pubiic schools. She went to live at the home of one of the women teachers in the college, where she furnished two rooms prett.ly for her- self and the boy. The widow had been to St. Louls before, but living here was differ- ent from visiting; {t was much nicer. The widow met many agreeable people, and was contented. Her old vow was as strong as ever. One day early in June, when the widow was turning into Broadway from Wash- ington avenue, her eye caught a familiar ) ull MO i ae Wit Ht da / * agers /: “Wife of — a MRS. HAROLD C.

The modus operand! differs with different men of the class. The result is the same, This bitter fact has been forced upon @ St. Louls woman by an experience of her own, portions of which have been related in the Post-Dispatch during the week just passe Mrs. Harold C. Mills, whose husband de- gerted her one week ago to-day, w.th half and more of her fortune in his pocket, re- ted the story of how the man victimized er, to the Sunday Post-Dispatch yesterday, that other women m.ght read and profit by the reading. Briefly, her experience was this: She is 82 years old and has a son 11 years old. Bhe was a widow with $6000 invested in pay- ing lands, and a hank account approaching $1000 to which the returns from her lands were constantly adding. She was lone.y. Ghe met a handsome, educated, polished “gentleman” who made love to her with the ardor of a Romeo. The fires she thought dead in her heart were re-kindied by the ardor of the man's wooing. She ex- ercised the tact and shrewdness of her sex in the insufficient way so many women in similar cases and learned—or thought she did—that ‘“‘He” was the son of a millionaire, the scion of a and family and would some day be heir 4 a fortune. His life had been spent—so he told her—in the upper circles of society. The desirable marriageable girls of the oountry had pursved him with proposals. He had remained steadfast in the determ!- mation arrived at in his youth, to awalt the coming of hie affinity. In the widow with the lands and bank account he found thie affinity. Well, she merried him. That was 10 weeks ago. Now she has neither husband nor bank account and her lands have been di- vided. She does not even know her name. The man she married was known by dif- erent names in St. Louls and the East. ut he was a great man in his way. He could make money Selling lebtning rods to gold brick men, so plausible were his tales, CHAPTER I. The Woman as She Was Before the Man Entered Her Life—The Future as She Saw It Then. Charlies Headley, a prosperous general merchant of Collinsvilie, I)l., died seven years ago, leav. ng his widow insurance and real estate, which if husbanded would keep her and her only child tn comfortab.e cirocumetances. The widow was, before her marriage, Miss Sophia Butikofer of Nok o- mis, lll. After the death of her husband she returned to her family with the boy, who was 4 years od, Grief for the dead husband remained long with her. She tended his grave, mourned the love that was gone and declared within her heart that no new pass.on should ever spring up to replace it. She carefully tutored the and reared him in the way that should make of him a man of his father’s kind, hogorabie, respected and a nobleman in the e t of God. me saived the wounds in the widow's heart. Unconsolable grief gave way tw quiet sorrow, and time replaced the black garb of mourning with ra.ment of more p-easing hue. Sorrow eventualiy became resignation. The world brightened gradu- ally and the widow found other things to ve for besides the memory of her hus- nd, Sa hoe Eatenees £88 people ot the world es n t about her revi ‘ e@ affairs of those er investments were good ones and th prov. sion left by the husband soon emnse a tency. She was then beyond the oy ol want. She was inde ent. No ever | vi . Ny own or the boy's needs was : from her vow to ~~ face in the noonday throng. The gentle- man petepes and greeted her cordialiy. He was a Mr. Leach, a traveling salesman who used to sell merchandise to her hus- band at Collinsville. “TIT am go giad to see you, Mrs. Head- ley,” he said; “Show have you been, and are you stil] living tn Collinsville?” Mr. Leach's companion, a remarkably handsome fellow, stood politely during the |greeting between the old acquaintances. — HAROLD C. MILLS. Mr. Leach asked permission to introduce his friend, and leave was read.ly granted. ““Mrs. Headley, allow me—my friend, Mr. Miils of the East.” That was the meeting of the man and the woman, the beginning of the latter's troubles. CHAPTER ITI. The Wooing of the Woman by the Man and the Sacrifice of a Vow at | the Altar of Love. On the first day following the introduc- tion the widow received a note from the man asking that he be perm tted to call. For two days she did not reply, but the image of the writer was ever with her. He was such a marly man. So po.ite, and, oh, so handsome. She had told her friend, the teacher, about the meet ng and in the telling she had dwe!t upon the man's ap- yearance. He wage full 6 feet tall, of ath- etic frame and the slight stoop in his shoulders only of the degree permiss.b.e in really handsome men. je had lustrous blue eyes that spark.ed with animat on or softened into tenderness with the tones of his voice. He had a fine forehead, one of the massive, inte,jlectua kind that great men possess. And hs hair was th.ck and soft and light. His mu:tache gave strength to his features and did not conceal his pretty teeth. The widow thought of the attr-butes of the man only as indications of a noble character. Why should she not permit a man of noble character to call on her° And, besides, he said in his note that he was lonely and had few friends in the city. That tone of lonesomeness did the busi- ress.

TRINK {T/A BONANZA SHAREHOLDERS IN AN ALASKA VENTURE ARE ELATED, A RACE TO FILE A CLAIM, Representative of an Indiana Oom. pany Won Because He Had the Dog With the Best 6peed. WABASH, In4., Sept. 16.—To the stockn holders of the Wabash Kiondike Coa. Lillo- nel Gilchrist, the representative the com- pany sent to Alaska, has recounted the ex- periences he had in that country, and tells of the situation of the company’s property near Dawson, The claims, as shown by diagrams pro- vided by Gilchrist, are located in Irish Gulch, near the mouth of Eldorado Creek, and on Quarts Creek. The frst, in the gulch, is a creek claim, and the others are a bench and hillside claim. Mining operations are in progress all around these properties, and the results are of the most encouraging character. Near the gu.ch claim, in fact, adjoining it, miners are tak- ing out dirt that yields $6 per pan, @ pan being about a scoopshovelful. Near the hillside claim shafts have been sunk, and the dirst is panning out §7, while at the third and poorest cialm a hole down only feet is yielding #0 cents a pan. Mr. Gilchrist asserts that in the loh c.aim, which is the old bed of Indian River, it is 110 feet to bed rock, and that t richest earth is found on the rock. 6 in- tense cold freezes the soll solid the entire distance, The grave is very coarse, and the gold is found free in considerable quan- tities. The Quart Creek ciaims are miles from Dawson. While he says the company can eas.ly close out its at the at $20000, he strongly advises bell the claims be worked, positive that big profi wi.l be made. Ordinar.ly, Mr. Gilchris¢ avers, dirt that pans out 10 cents wilil pay for working; w 2 it ylelds 15 cents per n it Is good, and the product is % per pan, as some 0 the contiguous claims are producing, which Mr. Gilchrist asserts at least one the company’s claims wil) y.eld, the cla! is worth a miliion.

Mr. Gilchrist - sks for a ®-ho wer boiler, which wil supply steam to run a aig horse-power engine and the steam thawer. The iatter is a machine having inted steel tubes which are driven nto the ground and filled with steam.
