The Pickwick Theater—Coming Season at Uhrig’s Cave. ‘Saints and Sinners,’’ the sensational melo- drama, will be performed for the last time this evening at the Grand Opera-house, and thus the regular dramatic season of 1879-80, so far as St. Louis is concerned,isatanend. Le vot est mort, vive le roi. The summer cam- paign has already been inaugurated in one house, «and before next week has passed Uhrig’s Cave will also be in full swirg. The most brilliant and fashionable dramatic event of the year came off last evenirg at Pope’s Theater, the eccasicn being the grand testim nial benefit tendered to Mr. Charles Pope. The spacious theater was thronged with a representative audience, embracirg the wealth, intellect and fasbion of the Future Great. Such a gather- ing was a most flattering tribute of the es teem and appreciation with which Mr. Pope is regarded, and the walm ani enthusiastic reception accorded him as he appeared befere the foot- tights, the demoastrative plaudits which com- pelied him tocome before the curtain, and the vociferous demand for a speech to which be was torced to yield and to which he re- sponded in a most happy and humorous vein, all these were such tokens of popularity and the bigh consideration he is heid in here, that Mr. Pope would be more than human if be had not felt a pardopnable pridein such a glowing recognition of success. Mr. Pope.as- sumed the character of Mercutio, and his delineation of the witty, mercurial friend of Romeo was, it is neediess to say, most pol- ished and artistic. The death scene after Mercutio had received the fatal wound from Tybalt was atriumph of dramatic art. The most interest in the performance, however, centered in the debut of *’a young society lady of St. Louis,” as the perfumed satin pro- grammes putit, but who was generaily sup- posed by the audience te be Miss Elia Stur- gis.. it was the young lady’s first essay in the dramatic art, and the arduous ro!e of Juliet was the one she had undertaxen. As the curtain fell the ver- dict was that Miss Sturgis hed achieved a re- markable success, and this was the decision notonly of the young lauy’s admirers, but of those whose judgment was not influenced by the contagious enthusiasm. There was no trace of nervousness Visible as the fair debu- tante came upon thestage. Onthe contrary, she displayed a thorough knowledge of stage business, and such aptitude that there was not visible even a suspicion of amateurism. In the first acts Miss Sturgis was evidently holding herself in reseive, and it was not be- fore the famous potion scene that she exhibit- ed her full power. Thi¥ was the test of her strength, and Miss Sturgis was equal to the occasion. She hrlu the large audience literally speli-bound with her marvelous histrionic talent. The conilicting emo- tions, the varying shades of doubt, despair and devotion which contest for mastery inthe breast of Shakspeare’s heroine were depicted with adepth of pathos and power that was a surprise even to those whu had best-vauged the fair debutante’s talent. The grand scene Was grandly portraved. That Miss Starygis possesses dranyatic,ability of a Lizh order is evident; her elucution is excel- lent, ber enunciation clear and her voice welodious and welitrained. At the close of the potion scene Miss Siurgis was twice called before the curcain, and overwhelmed with #Horal tributes, one of which was particularly conspicuous and bore the significant inscription *“*From the Seventh Cavalry.’’ Mr. Fred B. Warde en- acted Romeo with his usua! skill and ex- cellence, although suffering from a severe hoaiseness. His assumption of the typical lover was both robustand maaly. The other characters were all well filled. Last night was a memorabie triumph both for Mr. Charles Pope and for his pupil, Miss Ella Sturgis. The Pickwick. At this elegant little theater the Nathal Eng- lish Opera Company has held the boards since Monday with the ever freshand popular “Bells of Cornevilie,’”? Which has been greeted nightly by good and most enthusiastic audiences, Those who came through curiosity were in- variably captured outright,and went away Withonly praise for the cosy little gem ofa house andthe really very tine performance. Tbatthe Vickwick will be a fashionable and popular resort through the sum- mer is a certainty if the managemnt will only maintain the present high standard of attractions. While individual criticism could with justice be bestowed, the company is remarkably good, and on its mer- its alone deserves a most liberal patronage. It is without doubt the strongest company in every respect that has ever rendered English comic operain the West. The costumes and stage mounting are simply superb, and re- flect the highest credit on the management. For the coming week “The Bells of Corne- | ville’’ is announced until further notice, with a possible alternation with ‘“‘La Grande lDuchesse.” On Monday the cast will be changed by the substitution of Mr. Nathal inthe place of Mr. Luard as the Marquis.. This change is made in defer- ence to the wishes*of many friends of Mr. Nathal, who are anxiousto see him in that role. Inthethird act will be given the fa- mous song, ‘**The Cider,” rendered by the full chorus and the company In consequence of the strong choral necessities this song 1:3 rarely given, although when well rendered it is considered the gem of the opera. ‘‘*Girofle- Girofla”’ is announced to follow *-The Bells,’ and that in turn will be succeeded by Robert Planquette’s latest, ‘‘Les Voltigeurs de S2ieme.’’ The latter isnow the reigning sensa- tion in Paris, where it is reaching well up to the 300th performance. The full scores of the work were sent to Mons, Nathal by his friend, the distinguished author, accompanied by full mstructions astoits production. The music is highiy spoken of, the dialogue bright and the action very spirited, and as this will be its first production inthis country, it cannot fail to make a great hit. The baiconies and garden are being hurried to completion, and willinashort time be thrown open to the public. Uhrig’s Cave. Ubrig’s Cave has been metamorphosed dur- ing the last few weeks, and those who at- tended the garden performances last summer will hardly recognize it. ‘The garden has been graded and grayeled, numerous trees have been planted and various shrubs have been pracured, so that ahe effect is both artistic and picturesque. The old benches have been removed and in their piace comfortable chairs have been subdstituc- ed. The fountain has been placed inthe southwest corner, and by moonlight the cave has allthe appearance of « fairy bower. wilhtart h ae f the aetresh : “ ‘ course. will have charge o "ollie caters to the esthetic tastes of the ence he will attend to their physteal requirements.

To-morrow afternoon Fowler & Company’s Silver Show, headed with Robert Nickle, the prestidigitateur, will open a week’s engage- ment at the Theatré Comique. Mr. Nickle ts well known in St. Louis, having performed here this season, and he will,without a doubt, do an excellent business. He is most happy, in introducing bis wonderful feats, and iu ad- dition to keeping the audience spell-bound by his exquisite illusions he keeps them in roars of laughter by his veculiar style. [He has a long list of most difficult tricks and illusions, many of which be performsin the midst of his audiences without the slightest fear of detection. A BIG SCHEME. How a Telegraph Operator Proposed ! to Move Stocks. {From the New York Sun. ] Recently a telegraph operator named Thos. Holister was arrested in San Francisco by a Chicago detective. Holister had formed a plot to cut the telegraph wires uniting New York and San Francisco and then to send East a dispatch, dated at some station in the Sierras, saying that a tidal wave followed by an earthquake had destroyed San Francisco and Virginia City. The object of the plot was to cause a panic in Pacific Mail stock and Com- stock securities inthe New York market, the panic to be taken advantage of by confeder- ates. For several months tne Western Union Company knew that their wires were being tampered with, and they sent for the Chicago detective. He traveled along the line forsev- eral weeks, and finally came upon aclue at a spot a few miles eust of Battle Mountain. At this spot the wire had been cut and a piece that could readily be disconnected had been letin. The detective further found an insu- lated wire concealed in the grass and sage brush near by. Anendofitlong enough to reach the main line was coiled up. The wire ran rorth, and the detective, following it for a mile, came upon an exc:vation in the ground which was roofed in with branches aad turf and which contained, buriedin one corner, several Leyden jars, strips of copper and bot- tles of acid. The detective concealed himself near by and watched the place for several days, but without result. One day at Battle Mountain he saw in a pewspaper an account of the arrest for a breach ef the peace of a telegraph operator whom he had known in Chicago. The detec- tive, from what he Knew of the man, was prompted to go tv San Francisco and look af- ter him. He visited Holister’s room and there found what confirmed his suspicions that it was Holister who had tampered with the Western Union wires. Holister was ar- rested and made confession. In his room was found the following, written upon a piece of foolscap paper: ‘*At 10 o’clock this morning a tidal wave from the Pacific Ocean swept over San Fran- cisco, Wiping out the entire city in ten min- utes. Jt advanced inland and rose until the ; waters were ten feet deep in Sacramento and Stockton. Accompanying this oceanic dis- turbance was a tremendous shock of earth- quake, which was felt-most severely in Vir- vinia City. The mines onthe Comstock are a mass of ruins. No further particulars can be vained at present.’? This, Holister said, he had intended to send asa dispatch to the Associated Press. The decline in Comstock securities had delaved the carrying out of his design. He made his headquarters in San Francisco, and was only waiting forarising market. The apparatus found near Battle Mountain had been placed there by him,and he intended to cut the Wires and send his dispatch at that point. : —. ey ‘*The Case Stated.”’ Ireland, its condition, its wrongs and suf- ferings, isa subject that is always rear and deal to the hearts of the Irish who have left the land of their birth to escape the oppres- sion of the Saxon and have found refuge under the protection of the stars and stripes. A volume of more than usual inter- est to every Celt is one_ recently published by W.P. T. Sherlock, of Chicago, entitled ‘*The Case of lreland Stated Histori- cally together with a Gazetteer, geographi- cal, descriptive and statistical.’’ The contents may. be summed up under six heads: ist,a vecgrapbical sketch of the Emerald Isle; 2d, general statistics exhibiting the resources of Ireland, her population, ete.; $d, her history: 4th,the land system; 5th, the iast orzanized ef- fort by the National Land Leazue to root the people on the soil of their fathers and prevent their expatriation through poverty or extermination by famine; and Gib, a gazetteer. The recital of the suf- ferings of those who have workedin the cause of Ireland is simple, but forcible and elo- quent. Graphic sketches of the leaders of the Land League are included in the volume, embracing Charles Stewart Purnell, Jobn Dillon.Joseph Biggar, John O’Connor Power, W.H. O’Sullivan and others. ‘What Lreland asks for’’ is stated plainly and without cir- cumlocution. ‘*The Case Stated” is an ad- mirable plea for Ireland for the Irish. Altogether the volume is one of peculiar value at the present time, when the American Irish are taking such a deep interest in the politi- cal struggle inaugurated by Parnell to wring justice for Ireland from the hands of the Eng- lish. From (first to last the book is absorbing and fascinating and will be perused with deep interest by all who take an interest in the Jand of Emmett and ©’Conneil. Conkling’s Washington Home. {f Washington Cor.

There, free from interruption, and without danger of having his words viven tothe press, he indulgesin comments and criticisms, like the successive brilliant dis- charges of a Roman candle. There, with his chosen counselors about him, he devises means fer conciliating and ruining opponents and for crushing-insurgents.

Itis amusing to see a newly-arrived newspaper man go for Griffith, in the hope of worming some news out of him, and receiving the answer that Queen Caroline’s Italian courier made when a witness on her trial: ‘*Non mi ticorde.’? He did not remember. ee Se _ — The Richest Russian. [From the New York Sun. | For some months past rumors have been current in court and diplomatic circles to the effect that a marriage was ‘*‘in course of ar- rangement’? between Prince Alexander of Bulgariaand Mile. Yusupoff, the daughter and co-heiress with her younger sister of a iussian Prince, who is popularly credited with being the Czar’s wealthiest subject. This Muscovite millionaire’s income is chietly derived from house property inthe Russian capital, and not very long ago he was prose- cuted by the police authorities of St. Peters- burg for allowing his houses to fall into decay and to lack the commonest sanitary appliances prescribed by law, so that an epidemic broke out among his tenants. Mile. Yusupoff is an amiable and clever young lady, more remark- able for her varied accomplishments than her beauty. She will bring to the ruler of Bul- gariaa dowry often million dollars, and ex- be of a high order. The scenery for | pectations of a succession appraised at be- the new stage has all been painted | tweena millionand amillion and a halfa by Messrs. Noxon and Toomey.

MOBERLY. MO., May 21.—Moberly is but a young city that. has grownand is still grow- ing§with such rapidity that it has earned the name of “Magic City.’’ The place has a wide reputation for beingone of the most prospereus and enterprising cities in the West. Her business men are all energetic and alive to the interest of theirtown. They have in the last few years displayed great en- terprise in many undertakings. The Missouri, Hannibal and Texas and Wa- bash, St. Louis and Pacific Railroads pass through the city. The latter road have their machine shops located here, which give em- ployment to 500 men. The Ottumwa Branch of the W., St. L. & P. R. R. runs from here to Ottumwa, lIowa,a distance of 150 miles. These road,make Moberly a railroad center of no small note. ; The town site is one of the most beautiful in the State. The plot of land upon which it is built is smooth, though rolling enough to make the drainage good. The place is laid off with great taste, the streets running with the cardinal points, and are wide and kept in ex- cellent condition. The business portion of tbe ** Magic City” presents as fine an appear- ance as a place twice the size. The buildings, wi b one urtwoexceptions, are brick, built in the modern style. The residence part is very attractive. The houses are very tasty and neat. The vards fronting them are kept beau- tifully. THE HOTELS. Moberly has three fine hotels, the Mer- chants’, Rothwell and the Grand Central. The latter bas just been Opened. Itis a taree- story brick built with all the late hotel con- venienees. The rooms are commodious and well ventilated. It 1s furnished equaliv as vood as any hotel in the West. The house is owred by Wm. Smith, of Huntsville, and is leased to Vorhies & Sicotte, two gentlemen of large experience in the ho- tel business. The Rothnweil House is also a commodivous three-story brick building. It is keptin elegant style by Capt. Erskine, an old hotel man. ‘The Merchants’ Hotel is the same size asthe Grand Central. This house is known to «every traveling man inthe West as a favorite stupping place. The prvuprietor is P. Carmody. ‘There are a number of other hotels of minor note that are also good houses. READY FOR THE CON WENTION, The Democratic State Central Committee showed good judgment in selecting this point for holaing the convention, for the reason of its superior hotel facilities. Ever since Mo- berly was chosen for the place of holding the convention her citizens have been working in- dustriously in making preparacion® to accommodate the convention. They have spared no pains or expense, as Willbe proven when the convention as- sembles. Moberly has not oniy done as she promised, but has donefar more. For over a month the aim of every person, irrespecuve of purty, has been to assist in making the thing asuccess. It is the desire of our citi- zens that every person who attends the con- vention shal] go away saying that this city has more enterprise than any town thev were ever,in. That the ‘*Magic City” will do her- self honor there can beno doubt. THE WIGWAM she has erected for the use of the convention will furnish ample accommodations. It is a large frame building, built at a cost of $1,500, The building is tu be elegantly decorated by the ladies of Moberly, and made in every way comfortable for the occommodation of the convention. BUSINESS MEN. Of the many live and enterprising business men in Mubcrly. the following are a few of the most prominent: Hon. Geo. L. Hassett, the Mayor of the city, is engeged in the lumber business on a very exteBsive scale. Mr, H. carries the largest stock of lumber in North Missouri. Mayor Hassett is one of the wealtLiest men of Mo- berlv, and accumulated the greater part of his iortune since his residence here. His kind and afluble manners account for his intense popularity. Drury, Woolfolk & Co. are the main bank- ing tirmof the place. The gentlemen com- posipg the firm are thorough business men, who entel tuin broad and liberal views. They are not men who fear tospenda dollar unless two are in sight, and, therefore, do a large business. : George Geiring is the manufacturer of the fameus Mountain Bitters. These bitters are recommended by those who have used them as superior to anything of their kind in use. No housebo'd should be without a bottle. J. Scnot & Co. are the only dealers exclu- sively in country produce. They are live men, and doatbriving business. Butiet & Gutekunt, better known as Christ and George, bave the boss saloon in the place. Their bar . is supplied With the finest wines anc liquors ia the city. They also handie the famous Anbeuser beer. Thev have just receiveda fiesh stock purposely for the convention. Their place is couvinientiy located from the Missoun. Dr. J.C. Hickman is the proprietor of the lsrgest drug store in the city. It is arranged inelegupt stvie and will repay any one at- ogy the convention tu take special notice Of it. ° Dr. T. J.Cox is the leading physician of Mo- berly. The Doctor is the most genial yentle- min Ii haveever had the pleasure of meeting. HARRY, —_—- — ——— A Most Magnificent Book. iFrom the New York Weorid, May ¢Yth. | The purebase by Mr. Jay Gould of a private coliection filed with rare and costly illus- trated books bas given a lively impulse to the genera) interest in the luxuries of literature. Millionaires who know the value of such things will thank us for the information that Bouton, the importer and publisber at No. 706 Broadway, bas in his possession and offers for sale, at the really small price of $7,500, a megnificent and unijue copy of Shakspeare, probably the finest aud most elaborately illus- trated that has ever been seen. The basis of the work is the celebrated “Boydell edition,” in large type, by Bulmer & Co., which gvas published in nine volumes folio, from the origina! one bundred sheet numbers issued in Ist, Mr. Bouton’s copy, bound from the original parts, uncut. in falf red mor-: occo, has been extended to thirty- five volumes (a volume being devoted to each play) by the addition of more than 4,40) plates, consisting of views, portraits, cos- tumes, original drawings in pencil, sepia and water colors, with many of considerable value, notably aselection by artists of the famous London Sketching Club—Chalon, Stump, Harding and otbers. The plates comprise all tbe regular series of illustrations, to which are added an immense assemblage of engrav- ings ofthe choicest kind. Nearly one-third of the plates, are in brilliant proof condi- tion; a | the large folding plates, of which there is & great num- ber, are mounted on li:en and neatly guurded. Extra titles have been printed aad a charming series of proof vignette illustra- tious mounted thereon, the takivine by Geo. Trent. This copy of the famous Boydell Sbakspeare was made by an enthusiastic beok coliecior during some ten years of assiduous labor spent in gathering together illustrations of Shakspearian subjects. Illuminated Paint. [From the New York Times. | The English inventors of luminous paint are working bard to secure its general introduc- tion,and bave' been giving exhibitions io London of the many ways in which it may-be utilized; such, for instance, as painting sta- tionary and life buoys, street signs and ad- Vertisements, statuary and lawn tennis balls. As a curious scientific discovery the invention no doubt bas some merit; but its practical value is at present greatly limited by the con- ditions necessary for its use and the brief du- ration of its luminous qualities. As now pre- pared the paint has to be subjected to the sunlight orto a powerful artificial bt in order to make it Juminous, as this q iy ia. due to the chemical action upon [t of certain rays of light; but when this end has been se- cured the duration of brilliancy rarely extends — ! over six Gf eight hours, To bein the least serviceable for street it would be neces- te have the -board repainted each afternoon, a prpocuning which wenid be too expensive for the most oxi municipality to enter upon,and it is 0 uestionable:'whether the pumber of vessels that enter a harbor during the night is suflicient to warrant this amount of work on the buoys that mark the channel. There are other o 1ons to playing lawn tennis at night, at least in this country. besides the impossibility of seeing the balis, and we fancy that the patentee of the paint will never grow rich on his sales for this purpose; while to illuminate statuary with a mild, phospores- cent glow would be, from an artist’s stand- point, in decided bad taste. It is conceivable that the paint might be used to some advan- tage in the case of life-buoys. It could easily be madea part of the regular duty of one of the minor officers on shipboard to repaint each day one ortwoof these necessary addi- tions to the outfit of a ship, and have them at all times in readiness for immediate service. When one was thrown to a man who had fall- en overboard during the night, unless the weather Was very thick, he could see it from a distance of 200 yards or more, while it would also actasa signal for those who afterward went to rescue him. Another employment for it would be in painting the suits of suh- marine divers, for thus equipped they would illuminate a space of several feet around them, even in the muddiest water, and would have both hands unincumbered for work. In time some means may be discovered of pro- longing this evanescent light, but until this time comes it is not likely that the paint will be much sought for other than by those who buy a for the purpose of making experi- ments. Indiana Love-Making. [Shelbyville Cer. Cincinnati Commercial. | The village of Moscow, twelve miles east of here, in liush county, is just now enjoying a huge sensation. I or three yeara past a youth by the name of John Barlow, aged nineteen, son ofthe Postmaster and merchant of the town, has been paying attention to Miss Net- tie Atkins, who, strange to say, is nine years olcer than the young man iu question. She is the only daughter of a widowed mother, who is in rather good circumstances. In this case the age of the young lady proved no obstacle, and the pair were looked upon as most ardent admirers. Young Barlow was as devoted as could be desired, and it became the gen- eral opinion thatthe couple were engaged. However, a few days since the courtship was rudely brought to an end, and a consternation created, by Barlow suddenly leaving his home. Then the town became wild with ru- mors, and there was furnished much food for gossip. It appears that the parties a dav ortwo before Barlow’s departure had hada stormy interview, Occasioned as follows: Young Bar- low and an intimate friend, a young man named John Bennett, had taken a walk, and were seated upon a log in the woods engaged in a conversation. Barlow, it seems, was making Bennett a confidant, and was detailing his love affairs. The ¢xact substanceof the conversation is not known, but in the midst of it Miss Atkins burst upon the scene. She had overheard a portion of the interview, and she immediately opened outon Barlowina heated manner, accusipg bim of being untrue to her and of telling their secrets. She ended by informing him that unless he mar- ried her within two weeks she would ‘‘shoot him on sight.’’ This frightened the youthful suitor and was the cause of his disappearance. lL Was supposed that he had gone to the home of a relative in the southern part of the coun- ty. At last the young woman,true to her de- claration, bad started on a search for her false lover,’and seemed bent on bringing the boy to time. She had armed herself wish a revol- ver, and unless the matter could be amica)ly setiled a tragedy was looked for. The affair bas created a profound sensation. oa — —_— —2 FINE line of lisle and Balbriggan underwear at Mabley’s, Fifth and Pine. A Successful Invention. Considerable interest has been awakened in property and insurance circles by exhibitions of the barnes Automatic Fire Extinguisher on the vacant loton Washington avenue, between Eleventh and Twelfth streets. A temporary building was erected there several weeks ago in which the apparatus was introduced, and repeated tests have been given under the supervision of Mr. Chas. H. Townley, a live young business man of Cincinnati. After strewing the floor of the building with shav- ings and sprinkling the same with coal oil the torch has been applied. In every instance the flames have been automatically extinguished in from twenty to ninety seconds. A number of the leadirg manufacturers and property owners of the city have witnessed these tests aud all bave expressed great satisfaction. Lt is estimated that persons now carrying haz- ardous risks can reduce insurance from twenty tothirty per cent by the introduction of this ingenious contrivapce into their buildings, Already orders have been received for it from anumber of the mill and factory owners of the city. At lea-t two of the theaters are pre- paring to putitin. Arrangements are being made totreat the cotton merchants to an exe hibition of its capacity next week, cotton being used instead of shavings. ‘ ccinecicisaniiiaiiings a The Sunday-School] Founder. {From the New York World. | **Who was the founder of Sunday-schools?’’ is a question which, in the present year, pos- sesses a special interest, as the. centenary of Sunday-schools is to be celebrated with many rejoicings. Itis, perhaps, one ofthe curios- ities of history that such a query should be possible. The off-hand answer would, of course, be “Robert Raikes,’’ but Mr. 8. R. Townshend Mayer has just issued a pamphlet in which be makes out a strong case for giving a portion of the honor to the Rev. Thomas Siock. Mr. Mayer also says: “Sunday was Itaikes’ busiestday in the preparation and printing of the Gloucester Journal, whico was publisbed on Monday, and one of his work- men stated that his master was much annoyed ‘while reading proofs by the noise of children playing on the pavement under the editorial window.’ ’’ Mr. Maver suggests that motives of personal convenience may have mingled with the *‘pure philanthropy for waich ex- clusively Raikes bas had credit.’’ It would be an exceedingly curious instance of the truth that great events from little causes flow if it should turn outthat a system of secular and religious teaching which has had so important an influence for the last hundred years origi- nated in the annoyance of an irritated proof- — at the noisy children beneath his win- ow.

Capt. bads, asis well known, has madea new proposition having features much more novelthan any contained inthe jetty scheme. Some time sipce he made public his plans for constructing a ship railway across theIsthmns, which would do away with the necessity ofa ship canal. Of course this was at once declared by the mass to be wu wild, unpractical project, and by the same skeptics! persons who a few vears ago were positively assured thatthe jet- ties would fail, yet there is everv reason to be- lieve that a ship ruilway is practicable.—/ Pitts burg Dispatch. 4 River Engineers’ Averages.

Asa steamer could not aail under Rob Roy, but had to 20 over it, and there was no other wny to getto Pine Bluff by water, the steamer that passed up that river must draw less than 22 inches. The average depth of water in the jetties is all the way from 30 to 40 feet, but shipmuasters are careful to load their vessels to draw less than 24 feet.

Mr. TILDEN’S strikers in this city have been supplied with money quite liberally. . The barrel is evidently on tap. REPRESENTATIVE JOE BLackBuRN has declared for Justice Field for President, and is back in Kentucky working up the movement. His ticket is Field and Eng- lish, or Field and Thurman. Mr. Haves has gone so far out of his way to accommodate the third-termers in the Mayhard-Longstrect business that the sus- picion arises that perhaps he is looking for a cool place under the shadow of Grant. ~ —— TILDEN’S money is always used in fight- ing his own party, but it never appears on the surface when the common enemy is in sight. His alleged disbursing agent has been very busy fora week or two in this city. Our regular four-page supplement to-day contains a lot of good reading matter. Every purchaser and subscriber should see that the supplement is furnished and should report any failure on the part of carriers | and newsboys to this office. Discorp has been patent among the Maryland Republicans ever sigce the Fred- erick Convention. The third-termers, who were supposed to have secured the substan- tial victory, are dissatisfied and mutinous. The colored Republicans propose to call a State convention and to send a distinct del- egation to Chicago. Mr. WASHBURNE played it entirely too fine as a Presidential candidate. He was and he wasn’t. Like the skillful hunter he aimed to hit it if it was a deer and miss itif it wasacalf. The gun hung fire and now the elated mules returning from the Illinois convention have invaded his re treat and are kicking and stamping him to death. Tuk New York Jierald’s attempt to ge up a boom for Don Hamilton Fish is as hol- low and as barren of results as the moan of a sick buffalo on a Western prairie. There isn’t even the consolation of an echo It is as the voice of a feeble child crying in the night. Mr. Fish doesn’t even possess the phosphorescent attractiveness of a rot- ten mackerel.

SENATOR GORDON’S resignation scems to have been the result of a bargain to let ex- Gov. Brown into the Senate and place the former at the head of the State railroads, and Georgians are not pleased with it. In- dignation meetings are being held in va- rious parts of the State, and Gov. Colquitt is severely denounced for appointing Brown. It may be remarked that Brown is serene and ready to take the cake. - - St. Louis occasionally secures a con- vention. Next week we are to have the representatives of the American Society of Civil Engineers with us—a body numbering two hundred gentlemen of culture and edu- cation. They begin their session on Tues- | day. Asitis highly important that these gentlemen should carry away good impres- sions of our city, it is to be hoped that every effort will be made to insure them a pleasant visit. —_— - — _— SO ee ee MATHEMATICIANS who have charge of ithe Grant slate now figure out 407 instruct- ed votes for The Claimant, or 28 more than necessary to nominate him on the first bal- lot at Chicago." Louisiana and Colorado are the only States remaining to sclect del- and both States are claimed for Grant. They have 22 votes. A man with a long pocketbook will stand a good «hance at Chicago. In this man with tle pocketbook happens to be egatcs, instance the Blaine. For several weeks there has been a sort of feverish and uncertain feeling in stock circles. The impression has prevailed that high tide had been reached all around and that a collapse was imminent. The sus- pension of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company bas probably started railway stocks on a decline, and it would be well for people to very generally stand from under. The P. and Rh. road was one of the best paying institutions in the el * and iron traffic alone was a mint of wealth, but competition and adull market did the business. The road was carrying a debt of $7,500,000 and a sudden call for $600,000 due New York -banks forced the sus- pension. The stock of the road is now down to 12 1-4. — TILDEN’s strikers are making a desper- ate effort to carry the city primaries this evening and secure a solid delegation to the Moberly Convention, in the face of the | well-known fact that three-fourths of the Democrats of St. Louis are opposed to the paralyzed crawfish of Gramercy Park. It remains tobe seen whether they will be able to capture the booty and haul it away in the full view of the rightful owners. IMPECUNIOUS ward bummers who haven’t had money enough to meet current board bills in a twelvemonth are ranging through the city to-day with pockets full of crisp greenbacks. This is Tilden’s money and it is being used to carry the primaries this evening against the known sentiment of the St. Louis Democracy. Every anti-Tilden man who cares only for Democratic suc- cess should go tothe polls and assist to put down this aggressive, malevolent and dangerous faction. en A DESPERATE attempt is being made by the Tilden gang in this city to carry the primaries this aftérnoon and evening in the interests of their candidate. Money is be- iug lavishly used among the ward states- men who are sfipposed to be skilled in the manipulation of ballot boxes and in the’art of thwarting the popular will. The Grant bummers who recently helped Mr. Filley to his victory in the city are all lending assistance to the Tilden crowd. There is a natural affinity between these elements of politics. The Grantites are interested in helping the Democrats toa weak and unpopular candidate for President. They know the value of Tilden on a ticket in op- position to Grant. Hence their activity. It is to be hoped that the true and honest Democratic voters of the city will not per- mit themselves to be swindled by this cor- rupt combination. If the Democrats who wish to see their party successful in the next canvass will attend the primaries to- day and assert themselves, all will be well. Go to the primaries and vote against the Tilden schemers. THE DUTY OF THE HOUR.—Go to the pri- maries and vote for ANTI-TILDEN DELE- GATES, who will secure DEMOCRATIC UNITY, VICTORY and the PRESIDENCY. 2 eee WE have received a pamphlet containing thirteen papersin support of Mr. Helper’s scheme for constructing a _ longitudinal, double-track steel railway from Alaska to Patagonia. As the shortest paper inthe col- lection is sufficient to convince the most ob- tuse mind thatthe road should be built before another year, we presume the other twelve were thrown in for the sake of pleasing va- riety. BoB INGERSOLL says the best religion in the world is that which induces a man to found a home. Bob should remember that while we are a]! willing to start homes it isn’t every one of us who has intellect eoough to make $15,000 a year cracking jokes on the Bible and poking fun at Deity, and what would bome be without a piano and a forty- dollar baby wagon? ON the last day of this month the millers hold at Cincinnati their international exhibi- tion, which will be continued through June. A large party of foreign exhibitors are on their way to this country, and much Europe- an mill machinery is expected. During the course of the exhibition a grain congress, composed of buyers, sellers and carriers of grain, will be held. IT looks odd to Democratic eyes to see the name “Stephen A. Douglas” attached to a Republican proclamation, says the Cincinnati Commercial. The elder Stephen was a small man. His intellect was very close to the ground. The young man who wears his name over in Illinois seems to have been a sort of afterthought. ay a NS THE DUTY OF THE HOUR,—Go to the pri- maries and vote for ANTI-TILDEN delegates, who will secure DEMOCRATIC UNITY, VIC- TORY and the PRESIDENCY. To-Day’s Primaries. [From the Anzeiger des Westens. } To-day in the various wards delegates are to be chosen to the Democratic State Convention at Moberly, which againis to name the dele- gates to the National Convention at Cincinnati. It may depend upon the result of the primaries inSt. Louis whether the Missouri delegation to Cincinnati will vote for Mr. Tilden or for another Democratic presidential candidate. The mass of the Democratic voters in St. Louis is without doubt against Tilden, while outside the city opinions seem to diverge widely. St. Louis may decide the question. Since Tilden supporters represent a firmly knit party, while his opponents have neither a common candi- date noran organization; since Tilden up to the present is in truth the only Democratic candidate for whom ‘‘the wies have been laid,’’ and who has ‘‘the machine’’ at’ command, the result, notwithstanding the overwhelming majority of Tilden’s oppo- nents, is by no means certain. With respect to to-days elections it 1s a remarkable circum- stance that only one day’s notice preceded it. The day before yesterday the mode of conduct- ing the primaries was fixea; yesterday the first notice was given, and to-day the primaries are already being held. In spite ot that it should not be dimi- cult in the majority of the wards to elect independent delegates, men who are not open to the influence of professional wire- pullers. ~ Prectically considered the primaries to-day turn upon the question whether St. Louis will elect a number of puppets who mast vote as a cligue eommands them or a delegation of well- informed, independent and patriotic men who country a few years ago—its net earnings will jook aft®r an equally reliable delegation to aggregating $4,000,000 per year.

In those wards where primary elections are being held the polis opened about 2 o’clock and willelose about halt pasteight. An im- portant exception is the Eighteenth Ward, where the polls openat 5 o’clock and close at 6:30. In those wards in the First and Third Congressional Distiicta Zhe mass meetings and the primary elections will be comparatively quiet and un- interesting, asthereis no particular issue to create a division; butin the Second Congres- sional District, which includes the First, Sec- _ond, Third, Tenth, Seventeenth, Kighteenth, Nineteenth, Twenty-sixth, Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth wards, there is a strong contest over the presidential question. In most all these wards there are two rival tickets for delegatesto the Moberly Conven- tion, the one being considered as favorable to the election of Tilden delegates to the National ‘Convention, the other opposed. In other words, the fight in the Second District is Tilden versus anti-Tiiden. In the First and Third Congressional Districts nearly if not quite all the delegates sent to Moberly will be anti Tilden. The ‘2Ljldén men in the Second District are conducting their side of the con- test with a d many tricks and subterfuges. asit would be impossible for them to have even a ghost of a show to geteven part of the delegates chosen if they were to come out and make a square fight. THE FIRST WARD. ; The anti-Tilden candidates for delegates are: D. H. Armstrong, Ashley Cabell, Michael O'Malley, Jas. Bannerman, Mark Lenglet. The Tilden ticket is this: etaee’ aegnon tas Scott, Chas. A. Spalding and Tom helly. Col. Armstrong was put on the Tilden ticket without his consent. Heis well known to be an anti-Tilden man, and he is being used by the Tilden people to float their other candi- dates. THE SECOND WARD. Here there will be no contest, and the fol- lowing is the only ticket in the field: B.¥Feldcamp, ‘Bochm and —— Buchanan. THE TENTH WARD. Here the contest promfses to be animated. Fhe anti-Tilden ticket is as follows: Time, 8 . O. Toole, Joe Casey, -— _ —s /GENUINE BARGALRD | ‘Hi. T. Ket. F.C. Cabell, A. A. Paxson, P. wey J. al van. a Tilden ne is this: - - Hyde, M. J.

THE SEVENTEENTH WARD. The Anti-Tilden ticket is as follows: W. H. Switt, E. M. Bosley, Henry L. Ea- munds, Patrick Fitzgerald, H. M. Snyder. THE EIGHTEENTH WARD. | An especially bitter and mean fight is cargied on inthe Eighteénth Ward to elect the Tilden ticket. The anti-Tilden men, representing all preferences for Morrison, Seymour, Thurman, Hancock, Hendricks, Bay- ard, or any other available c&ndidaate who can be elected, have united upon the fol- lowing names: Edward Wilkerson, Joseph Pulitzer, Thomas R. Garard, P. J. Woodlock, G.S. Van Waponer, A. W. Slayback. The Tilden men, true to their usual peculiar methods, sai] under false eolors. They have put on their ticket Col. Slayback, in the hope of electing at least five Tilden delegates under false pretenses, Their ticket is: Richard J. Howard, John J. Holliday, R. S. MacDonald, Patrick Mohan, John G. Kelly, A. W. Slay- back. ‘ Messrs. Howard,McDonald,Kelly and Mohan are out and out Tilden men and no Anti should vote for them. Three polls will be opea from 5 to 8:30 p. m. Those who reside east of Garrison avenue vote at 3327 Olivestreet. This includes pre- cincts 193, 194, 195, 200 and 201. Those who reside west ot Garrison avenue and south of Olive street (precints 185, 186, 187.158, 190, 191, 192, 189) will vote at 2341 Manchester road. Those who reside west of Garrison, but north of Olive street (precincts 196, 197, 198 and 199) vote at Ubrig’s Cave. Democrats who do not desire to see Grant elected to a third and indefinite term should turn out and vote for the anti-Tilden delegation. In the Nineteenth Ward a Mr. Kennedy is thé anti-Tilden candidate, in the Twenty-sixth a Mr. Hawkins, in the Twenty-seventh Oscar suchanan and in the Twenty-eight Ferd.

Personal Encounters Between Preach- ers, Doctors and Lawyers. {Indianapolis Special to Chicago Tribune, May 20. | This morning, during the trial of the Senti- ne] libel suit, which has held the boards of the Circuit Court for two or three days, Maj. J. W. Gordon, the well-known attorney,. re- marked in the course of his argument that he “Didn't Want a man sitting behind me jump- ing up every few minutes like a basket of dom-tits to interrupt me when I am speak- ing.’’ This was addressed to one of the op- posing counsel, J. H. Laird, who replied: “I call the attention of the Court to the fact that _ the language of Maj. Gor- don is not only unprofessional, but ungentiemanly.’’ ‘Quick as lightning the Major made a rush for Laird, but was stopped by an associate counsel, who threw him down intoachair. Releasing himself again, how- eyer, the Major made another rush for him, seizing a large glass ink-bottle and hurling it at Laird’s head. Fortunately, it missed its aim, Striking another lawyer on the arm and bespattering a new suit of clothes beyond recognition. the scene of action and, with the help ef a few spectators, quiet was restored. The Judge immediately placed both under arrest, but afterwards, by special request, the prisoners were permitted to close tneir case, when they will be dealt with for contempt. An eye- witness to the scene to-day savs that, had the inkstand reached its intended destination, Laird’s skull must have been crushed. This makes the third affair of the kind that occurred in this city during the weekjbetween persons of whom better things are expected. The first occurred Monday evening between the Rev. George B. Young, of the Edwin Ray Metho- dist Episcopal Church, and Attorney Patter- son, a parishioner. Chairs were freely used, and Patterson came off with a black eye, ad- ministered by one ofthe Rev. Young’s back- ers, The affair occurred at the conclusion of a prayer meeting, and has been the town’s talk ever since. The next morning Dr. J. R. Beck, of Fort Wayne, a delegate to the State’ Medi- cal Association, “kicked the stuffing’ out of Dr. Wood, another delegate from Angola.This happened in open meeting and immediately after prayer by the Rev. Dr. Andru. After the preachers and doctors very naturally come the attorneys. Thus ail the learned profes- sions have had their row. East St. Louis. Albert Molairis locked up atth2 police sth- tion on 4 charge of disturbing the peace. A warrant was sworn out to-day before ’Sqguire Graney for the arrest’ of Mrs. Reminick for violating a city ordinance.

There are some things, however, about this double-headed government of ours that are Lot at all satisfactory to the people. Itis bad enough in St. Louis as it is; but just imagine what sort of a muss would ensue were your municipal management entirely at the mercy of ihe Missouri State Legislature and all its eomplicated details subjected to the manipulation of a country committee. Yet that’s just about the wav itis bere. The citi- zens of the district are willing enough to pay their half of the running expenses, so long as l'ncle Sam pays the other half,but they would like to have at least have a voice in the shap- ing of the legislation under waich thev are compelled to live. As it is the District is voverned by three hundred and fifty or more (ongressmen, from forty or more States and Territories, necessarily having no views in common as to matters of municipal policy ar cl Many of them having no. views at ail, biased morever by political and sectional prejadices inail their action and unsuited in the very pature ‘hings to the direction of metropolitan af- fairs, Outside of the public works andim- }rovements that are of a purely national char- acter, The Senate (Columbia consists many different- States, ard mittee consists of twelve many different States,and none of them resi- ents of large erties. They are no doubt com- petent business men, but, however competent ‘+y may be, their recommendations are lia- he to be overslaughed when measures are ishedtoavote. This Se other day, in the consideration part of the new District code, now before (Congress, relating to an increase of the police farce. The depariment is efficient asfaras it goes, but lacks tbe numerical -rength to properly protect the city,and it has tron so for years; but the revised statutes ery absurdly provided that of the two hun- dred additional men proposed to be put on, rene but Urion veterans sbould be appointed. The bill that was introduced in the House authorizing the increase struck out this re- -trictive clause, leaving applications open to i) without regard to their political or milita- ry antecedents, Which is butjust. The idea should be to strengthen the force with the most athletic, effective material to be found, regardless of partisan discriminations, but all the Republicans in the Hlouse and quite a number of timid Demo- crats, Who are probably nervous about their re-election, made a combination and defeated the bill. The District, therefore, is left in its comparatively defenseless condition and will of course remain so until another session, un- «sssome eompromise should be effected or better counsels prevail; so that in case we are more than .usually overrun for the next ‘iv months with thieves, incendiaries and gar- roters, we shall know just exactly where to piace the responsibility. ‘There are many other matters also pertain- (Committee of nine members from as the Hlouse Com- which the city is lighted, the water it uses, the taxation by which it is supported—upon which final action is likely to be deferred until another session, partly because of the indifference felt on these subjects in Con- ‘ress, partly because of political matters that ‘ist now engross the attention of our great ‘atesmen, and partly because what is everv- ocy’s business is nobody’s business.

The local furor reached a fever heat and carried the town by storm from Georgetown Heights to Capitol The enthusiasm of the hotele and boarding-houses, the hash-houses and rum-shops knew no bounds.

Cor. N. Y. Shon. | This town has been greatly excited forthe past week over a mysterious tragedy,resulting in the death of a twelve-year-old boy, whose only companion was atramp of generally re- pulsive appearance. The couple were first seen in this neigborhood on the 3d _ inst., aad the remarkably handsome and manly appe:r- ance of the boy was the subject of general eccmment among the residents, and their sus- picions were aroused by the presence of the child in company with the tramp, who was so evidently his inferior in every other respest. It was also observed that the tramp treated his companion with a mixture of fear and re- spect, which added to the general suspicion thatall was not right. One evening they were seen to enter an old barn on the suburbs of the town, as was supposed, to (btain shelter for the night. At about .4 och ck the following morning a gentleman who lived in the neignborhood was aroused by aloud knocking on his door, and, on answer: ing tbe summons, be found tke visitor to be the tramp, who informed him that the boy had fallen from the barn loftand burt himself. On going to the barn the child was found lying partially under a large wagon, against whico he bad evidently fallen. His features were distorted with agony. Blood was pouring from his ears, eyes and nostrils, and on every side there were indications of the force with Which be had struck the floor in the blood scattered over the floor and sides of the barn. The lad was carried to a neighboring house and medical assistavce summoned, but he died In afew minutes. The excitement throughout the town was inie use, and a close Watch was placed over the iramp pending the result of the Coroner’s in- quest. When this was held the testimony of the man, while parily clearing away the cause of the deatb, only added to the mystery attending the biith and parentage of the yourg lad. The tramp, who gave his name as Wm. Greer, ssid that he belonged in New York City. Hehad first lived at Twenty- ninth street and Lhbird avenue, and latterly at 416 Third avenue. Helcft there two weexs ago. and a few days Jater met the boy in Jer- Greer cluims that the boy first spoke to him, said that his name was William that helived in Philadelphia. They joiped company and prvuceeded oa the | tramp through New Jersey and Pennsylvania, reaching Titusville without incident. Greer. Who gave his story with great giidn2ss and seemed unconcerned at the sad fate of the child, whose pale, sweet fac? was within a | few yards of him as he testified, tnen detailed what happened in tne barn after tuey entered it. Hesaid they had climbed up to the top kftand lain down tosleep, wheathe child complained of being cold aud started to de- tloor to obtain a horse blanket which he knewto bethere. Greer he was, but that the lad persisted in his inten- | tion, and while ascending with the blanket fell to the floor. There is only one opinion prevailing in the community, Which is that the tramp’s story is untrustwortby, and that the true facts in the c.se bave not yetcome to light. In the first place, those who have seen the boy are of the opinion that he could uot have been the ordi- nary ramp that Greer would make him out. He was attired in rough clothing, it is true, but his underciothing was rich ani cleanly, and his hands showed that he had never been used to manual labor. A theory is gaining ground here that the child may have been the long-lost Charley Ross, but many of the more clear-headed residents gave it little credence. The feeling of the community has been so ex- cited that Jarge sums of money have been subscribed by wealthy residents to defray the expenses of an investigation. Handbilis giv- ing the outline of the case have been printed, and will be sent broadeast over the States of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Dela- ware and Maryland. Detectives have also been employed to ferret out the mystery, and strong hopes are entertained of their being successful. The child was buried two days after his death, the entire population attending the funeral. The remains were dressed in a handsome suit by ladies of the town, who also filled the coflin with flowers. The sym- pathy for the child was so strong, owing to bis remarkable personal beauty, that many tears were shed over the little coffin as it was lowered into the grave. The ladies organized a choir to render the music at the service, and four of the wealthiest residents of the town acted as pall-bearers.

Stokley of Wilmington, Dela- ware, in reference to the identification of the photograph of the boy Carter, who was found dead im a barn in Titusville, Pa. Mr. Stokley was shown the photograph, and was visibly atfected. fle said that tbe picture resembled his young son, Willie B. Stokley, who left his home fifteen months ago, and who sinoe that time never wrote to his parents. Mr. Stokley suid he was induced to call atthe Central to see the photograph by a letter he received on May 5, datea Limestone, N.Y.,about fifty-five mi es from Titusville, ana signed “*A Tramp.” It stated that the boy Carter was Mr.S:okley’s voung son. The father also showed the Chief a photograph of the boy which was tak- en after he had been brought bome, after run- ning away a couple of years ago. This photo- graph somewbat resembled the one sent by the Titusville authorities. ‘The father and the officials at the Central think that thisis the right boy, but to make it cer- tain Chief Givin will to-day write to Titus- ville, asking if there were any peculiar marks on the dead body, which the father said were on one of the ankles of his son. Since the ac- cident at Titusville over 150 men and women have called at the Central to identify the pho- tograph as the hkeness of children who had ‘de,arted from their homes. THE SECRET ORDER RECORD. During the week closing to-day there has been nothing of special importance transacted among the mystic societies, with the excep- tion of the Grand State Lodge of the Odd-Fellows, which closed its session here on Thursday night, and full details of which have appeared in these columns from day to day,making it unnecessary to say more regard- ing it. In the following will be found a cor- reet and complete record of the past week’s work among the lodges of the different or- ders. For the week to come there will be nothing of more than local interest. The Masons. Hiram Council No. 10 worked in all the degrees last Tuesday evening. Aurora Lodge conferred the second degree on two members at its last meeting. Bellefontaine Chapter No. 25 at its last meeting worked in the R. A. degree. At a regular meeting of St. Louis Lodge No. 20 members were put throug the E. A. de- gree. Itaska Lodge No. 420 at its last Tuesday evening’s meeting worked in the E. A. de- gree. At a session of Meridian Lodge No. 2 Wednesday night the E. A. degree was con- ferred on members.

T. B. Gregory, ex-Grand Master of Missou- ri, has been quite ill during the week. Charters will shortly be granted to ten lodges that have recently been organized in the State. Mr. Thomas B. Gannaway, of Paris, Mo., was elected Grand Warden of Missouri last Wednesday. During the past year $1,750,000 were paid out in the relief of suffering members and in the alleviation of the condition of widows and Orphans.

The session wil] have some meaeriess matters up for con- sideration and will continue two days, and probably three days. Delegates will be in at- tendance from nearly every lodge inthe State, and the coavention throughout promises to be of more than usual interest to the fraternity. Grand Lodge Meetings. The Grand Chapter of Temperance and Wisdom of Missouri meets June 26th. The Grand Lodge of I. O. R. M. of Missou- ri meets in St. Louis the last Sunday in June. The Grand Grove of Missouri U. A.

The State iodge officers of this secret or- ganization, who have been in session here during the week, installed their officers of State yesterday. The details of their session have already been published in the Posr- DISPATCH. This new order, although not gaining in the number of lodges, is rapidlv in- creasing in membership.

As nearly all other workmen’s unions, its regular business transactions are entirely secret, but its semi-montbly meetings are open tothe public. Its affairs are so regulat- ed as to furnish means to any of its members in case of necessity. ‘The membership now numbers some 165. “No insurance plan has vet been adopted, but will as soon as they in- crease to 400, which willbe done with the or- ganization of two new lodyves next week.

A Law Student’s Forgeries. [From the New York World. Eighteen months ago John P. G. Smith, who had been for some time a boox-keeper for Alfred Gilman, a lumber dealer and tan- ner of Port Jervis, N. Y., came to this city and entered. the Columbia Law School. He was graduated at the commencement last Wednes- day, and immediately returned to Port Jer- vis. Hehad expected to apply in a short time for admission tothe bar. He is engaged to a voung lady of Port Jervis, and it is said that he has lately made her presents of dia- monds. He himself dressed expensively, and appeared to have plenty of money. The townspeople talked considerably about him, and wondered where he got his money. Ten days ago, in leoking over a number of checks, one of Mr. Gilman’s clerks discovered one of them to beaforgery. The others were ex- amined carefully, and 260 checks were found which it is claimed had been successfully forged and paid. The checks were aN for amounts ranging from #19 to $50. and came in the aggregate to about $4,000. They were drawn to the order of dif- ferent employes of Mr. Gilman, and the payees’ names appear on the back. Tae checks were for small amounts and were 80 cleverly executed that they hid passed through the New York banks, throngh the National Bank of Port Jervis, on which they were drawn, and through the hands of the flim itself without attracting atten- tion. ‘These checks, which are sup- posed to have paid Smith’s wav through college, were passed on three New York merchants. Nicoll, the tailor, took #000 worth of them, and the remuinder were divided about equally between Henry Milier, a shoemaker, of No. 26 West Fourteenth street, and Ridley & Co. Smith first gave the checks in payment for goods ond afterwards got them cashed at the various houses. The checks date as far back as August, 15:8. Smith was arrested, but as all the forgeries were uttered here in New York he could not be convicted in Port Jervis, and detectives yesterday came to this city and went before Justice Murray for a warrant to bring him on. They said, among other things, that Smith has a bank account of $600. Justice Murray said he would have to bring on one of th» bank officials before he could give the war- rant. The detectives went away disgusted.

PARSON PELTZ. Sudden and Unexpected Downfall of an Honored Man. | From the Philadelphia Times. } The explosion of a dynamite magazine could not have been more astonishing than the un- pleasant intelligence which came from James- town, N. Y.. concerning a prominent clergy- man who bad been honored and trusted by all who knew him. It was not only among the od ap of this city that George Alexaader Peltz was a favorite. During his term of ser- vice as a pastor here he made hosts of friends amorg all denominations. Asa preacher he was exceedingly popular. While he never at- tempted the higher flights of oratory, his pleasant conversational manner in the pulpit always secured bim large audiences. As a pastor he was bighly esteemed, and was cor- dially received among the families of the va- rious churches to which be ministered. Asa writer and editor he was both sparkling and careful. As anexpounderof Sunday school lessons he stood in the highest rank. As an educator and a conductor of institutes and other meetirgs held in the interest of religious training, bis services were so constantly in demand as sometimes to interfere with his pastoral work. Dr. Peltz’ ministerial work in the Taber- nacle Church in this city was so successful as toleadto a call to a large and important church in Newark, N. J. He was for some time secretary of the Pennsylvania Sunday School Association. The Sunday School Times secured his services as one of its edi- tors,in which capacity his already wide- spread popularity was greatiy increased. In connection with the Sunday School Assem.: blies held on the shores of Lake Caautauqut. he became sueh a favorite with the people of that region tnat about two years ago the Bap- tist Church of Jamestown, N. Y., at the bead of the lake, yave hima call, From that time until his sudcen downfall he was one of the most successful and popular of Baptist pas- tors. His chureh prospered and his congre- grations were very large. Recently it was whispered that things were not all right, and that behind Dr. Peltz’s ge- nial exterior there was an undercurrent of hypocrisy and uncieanness which it was somebody’s duty to expose. His relations with bis female amanuensis were reported as irregular, and the report is stated to have been putin circu’ation by his servant, who was jealous of attentions which she thought shou.d have been rendered exclusively to her- self. Acommunity like that of Jamestown is not slow in giving currency to information of this unsavory soit. There people were averse to hearing the gospel from the lips of a man whom they considered to be stained with moral roitenness. Determined to know the worst, yet to deal fairly with the accused pastor, some of the solid representative men of Jamestown visited him. He confessed all he was charged with and tearfully expressed his penitence, It was not a case, however,in which penitence could undo the mischief that had beendone. These men demanded Dr. Peltz’s resignation. Heguave itin the follow- ing extraordinary letter: JAMESTOWN, N. Y., May 8, 1880. a F ~ First Baptist Church, Jamestown, DEAR BRETHREN AND FRIENDS—I herebv present my resigbat.on as your pastor, and in doing so would make the following statement: 1 bave for a considerable time been coavinced that my duty and my family, on the score of health, forbaae my remaining here another winter. It has been, therefore, my fixed purpose to leave Jamestown next fall at the latest. Orher cluims have aiso multiplied upon me, dividing my time and my strength, until at present [am quite unfit for anv work. aliof them I certainly cannot continue to carly. that forthe future I will devote myself to work other than the pastorate. To withdraw now from this pastorate seems Wise and timely for many reasons. A church left without a pastorin the fall is liable to lose its best season for church work. At this season of. the year settlements are more easily «flected. Again, any service which for three or four months to come I could render you would be necessarily so divided and imperfect as to be practically useless. In view of these and other considerations my decision inthe caseis settled. Please, therefore, regurd this resignation as final, and accept it without hesitation. I feel that the whole subject bas been canvassed, and I can- not change my mind concerning it. I will merely suggest that this action take effect at the close of the present month, though I franklv say that in the remaining in- terval I can do but littie service for you. Trusting that this house may be put in per- fect order. that you may speedily secure an- otber pastor and that God may abundantly bless you in the future years, I am very truly yours, GEORGE A. PELTZ. Fiom this letter itis evident thathe did not expect that bis moral rottenness would be made as public as subsequent events have shown that it was. In fact, he went to Cleve— land, as it is alleged, to preach and teach. It is well for himthat he did not return to Jamestown, forsome of his angered fellow citizens were in wait for him, with a view of coating him with tar and feathers. Warned by a friend, who methim onthe train, he went nobody knows where, and thus avoided | what would have been an unpleasantly warm reception. Thus. sadly and miserabiy does one of the most eminent and popular men io the Baptist Church drop out. His name still appears in the Baptist Teacher, the organ of the Sunday scnoo!l department of the church. He was its chief editor; andthe June number has just been issued. He leaves in the deepest grief a most estimable wife and several previously happy and bearty children, His oldest son has for some time time been preparing for the minis- try. His oldest daughter, a bright aud promising young lady, died very suddenly about two years ago. Never was there a hap- pier familv than theone which is thus pluaged into wretcheaness. Dr. Peltz had expected to goto Europe next month, baving been ap- pulnted a delegate to the Robert Ruikes Cea- iepnial Celebration, whichis to be held in London. But if be now crosses the water it will be ratbeg in the capacity of a fugitive than in that of a representative of tne Sunday schools of America. His old friends in 4's city, on bearing the sad news about him, h« ped that there might be some extenuating circumstances in view of which they would be able tolend a helping hand toward his restoration. This hope gave way w muiagled sorrow and indignation when they learned the worst.

Lucy Hooper’s Interview with thé Peerless Songstress. {London Letter in Philadelphia Telegraph. | Then, too, the other day I had the pieasure of reviving the memories of the supremesi art delight that I have ever enjoyed. I went to cal] on Jenny Lind. The unforgotten Swedi-h prima donna, whofor many years has sung no more, livesin a spacious and charming . mansion in a retired nook in South Ken- sington, a very grove for the nests of soag birds, by the way, for Albani lives but a few doors off, and more than one of the passen- ger warblers take up their residence habitu- ally in this ——— quarter. Embowered by trees an flowers, the home of Jenny Lind lonks just fitted to be the peaceful retreat for one who his drained to the very dregs the world’s in- toxicating cup of honors and applause. In the elegant drawinpg-room,hung with pictures und tastefully decorated with old china, ar- tistic draperies, etc.,I found a lady whose blue eyes and kinaly emile bore me back at once over the waste of somethirty year. Again, I sat, an eager, excited, school girls, glowing with anticipation, on the verge of my first great art delight. Isaw onc? more be- fore methe tal), slender figure in its white satin draperies, with green leaves and dia- monds adorning the abundant fair huir, and the olden thrjli creeps over me that heraided the first notes of that marvelous, that incom- parable voice, whose tones were to those of the velvetthroated Patti or the silver voiced Nilsson as the Regent compared to the diamonds of a Duchess. Shall I forget how old men, who knew just as much about music as they knew about Sanscrit, tmsed to sit with the tears streaming down their cheeks while Jenny Lind was singing “I know that my Redeemer livetb?’’? There she stood before me, the un- forgotten idol of my girlish idolatry, changed indeed by the lapse of years, yet unmistaka- bly the Jenny Lind of old. The abundant brown hair, with a few lines of silver amid its locks, wasturned under in the peculiar fashion in which she always wore it, andthe eyes are lovely as ever in their expression and in their soft depths of lustrous bide. As she talked, her gloved bands layclasped upoa her knee in the easy, graceful pose that was familiar to us in the Swed- ish songstress long vears ago. I called her attention to the fact, and she smiled at my remembering the attitude, and the pretty German monos) ilable ‘‘s0!’’ which usea to be another of the little peculiarities that we noticed and loved because they were hers, escaped from her lips. A grand piano io one corner of the room, and a large three- quarter length portrait of herself, painted at the height of her renown, recalled her past queenship in the realms of song. She was bandsomely yet plamly dressed in a rich black silk, closed to the throat with coral buttons, a stawl of old Cluny lace was draped around her shoulders, and she wore a very simple cap ef fine old Venetian guipure. She spoke in warm terms of affection of the United States, not in reference to the welcome and the worship it nad accorded to her in by-gone vears, but because, as she said in her quaince English that had such a charm about it, **Your country takes the rabble of all other countries and gives them ali a enhance.’ I spoke of the fact that when she sang in America there were no opera- houses there. ‘*And of that I was glad,’’ she remarked, *‘for I hud quitted the stage, and it was for that reason that 1 was anxious to go tLe United States, since there I would have n>» temptatiorstoreturntoit.” I also spoke of tLe intense sympathetic quality of her talent, endtbe marvelous power she possessed of swaying her audiences at will, particularly in devotional music. Something of the old beautiful rapt expression came into her eves as she answered: ‘‘It was because my voice came from God and I sang to God.’’ Andso I tcok my leave of herand went away, with | alltenderand exquisite memories of the di- vine joy that the voice ofthat greatest of all crest singers had ever given me ne-tiiog warm | about my heart. 1 felt like one wno would seek / outacage wherein a nightingale | sung to enchant | snow-white li y. | parted, butthe woman, by purity and sweet- | be said at once that tbeir art is had once the world,and fiading the bird gone, would findin its stead a single The wondrous voice has de- ness and lJofty intelligence that lent balf iis charms, remains unchanged.

I shall be erazy if things vo on this way much longer: was the wind- ing up exclamation of Burke Addison’s dis- tracting reverie.

He had begun to belicve that there wasn’t a capable Woman in the whole city, at least none that he could Jay bis hands on. He heard the pacter of little feet along the entry, and the door was pushed open bya little girl of three summers or thereabouts, who entered’ holding up her littie apron in which were some colorea candies. ‘*See what 1 dot from the candy man,’’ she jisped, hold- ing out her apron with her little caubby, soiled bands and snowing them to her fatner. Then sitting down quietiy on the not over weil swept carpet, sue proceeded to regale herself with the sweetiweats. He uttered a half despairing groan as he looked at her thin face, wWoich was very pretty when clean, but was now bedaubed with the colored candies to its uiter disfigurement; her tangled curls looked as if they had not known brush or ecmb for a week, her stockings were soijed ard wrinkled, and the trimming was torn from her dress in several places. **How the child is neglected!” he thought, watchiag ber as, in blissful unconciousness of dirt and disoruer, she smacked ber iips after each dainty morsel. “She is giowing up like a weed, and ber cloihes look as badly as any neg- lected child of the street.” He had a tine, sen- sitive taste for order and neatness, and the sight of Mabel was positively painful to him. When be had married he bad maue his bome in a distant city from his own, and none of his rejatives or those of his wife were near him. ‘*Something mnust be done,’’ he soliloquized, half savagely. **Thal girl is wasting more down stzirs than her head is wortn, I’il be bound.

The girl looked at him dully and then, without reply, turned and went down stairs. He grasped bis crutches and hobbled around the room aW hile to work of! his impatience. Mabel began toluugh at his movements, which looked novei to her, and having tnished her candy, gotup and pattered along beside him. “Go down stairs aud ask Jane to wash your face and hands,” he said in an irritated tone.

She’s a guod | jittle thing, and it isn’t her fault that she is neglected.’ | Hle sat down again, and laid aside his crutches. He forgot the present fora waile, while memory Went beck and brooded over the past regretfully. Five years before he had been the proud, happy lover of Marion Leon- ard,a bright, sweet, loving, whole-hearted gxiri. It was the old story of love and wis- } understanding. He had sent her a bouquet of hot-bouse flowers and along with it « note telling her of his love, and requesting her, if she returned it, to weer the moss rose buds in her hair at the party they were botb going to attend that evening. The boy, who carried them carelessly, lost the note, and when ques- tioned by Burke on his weturn declared that he had delivered both all right, being too cowaldly to tell the truth. His heart sank like lead’ when in the evening he discovered that the had not worn the flowers. Then pride came to bis aid, and, meatally calling ber a coquette forthe Winsome, smiling manner in whicb she bad treated him for weeks past, he bad almost ignored her during the entire even- ing und lavi-bed marked attention upon Kate Dennig, Who was but tlo@well pleas<d to re- ceive them.

Then a short tine | alter the fatal step was tuken the truth e in: out. He found out that Marion had loved h in devoutly and that he: peart was breaking over the desertion. He had mad:an iad.fferat } bu band, for he could not forget Marioa, and his wife, during her short married life, was not 4 bappy woman. He was not unkind by g2oy means, but sbe missedthe affection she had a right to expect and pived over the disap- polatment. Since ber death be had felt some remorse that he had been thoughtless enough to iahe into his keeping the life of a loving, Sebeitive woman from no other motive thaa pique... Lately bis thoughts had turned to nis easily Jove, but he had noclew to her where- @betts. <Afier his marriage her father bad died, inatew mouths her mother, ant she, an vuly child, had drifted out intogihe, world gione to earn herown Jiving, be h.d heirrd, fer her father bad left very tittle property. **She may be married,’’ he thought, ‘and if not, sne may have ceased to love me,out she ts the one ove of my life, and if I unly knew where to find her.’’ With these (houghts in his mind his eyes wandered through the open wiadow to the yard below. They were back vards, but pleasant.ones for all that, wich clean brick pavements, with beds of bright, fragrant summer flowers here and there, grape vines and other shrubbery clinging on trellises, in all making a perfect picture of summer bloom upd verdure. Two or three trees reared their beads skyward, faintly suggesting the ‘ for- ett primeval” to the city denizeus. Then he Joohed uacrossto a window exactly opposite ' then. he plied her needle steadily short intervals of ab- sence from her room, and must accomplish a good deal, he thought, her fingers flew so rapialy. She wasnotnear enough for him to discern her features, but there was some- thing in her air and attitude as she sat at work that interested him and made him like to watch her. He could perceive that she was not posing for his benefit, although sbe must be aware that he looked a good deal in her di- rection. She was tail and ape gt he could see when she arose to walk, and there was a certain self-possession and absence of flurry in her movements that made him feel it would be relief to his tried soul to have sucha wo- man near him. ‘‘Sewing! eternally sewing!’ he muttered. ‘‘] wonder women don’t get tired to death of such monotonous, confusing work! I suppose they do. Probably she has to earn her living in that way. I wonder if she isa widow’’’ He had a horror of widows. ‘Probably not, or ehe would have tried to scrape an aquaint- ance before this time. I wish I could have just such a neat-looking woman for house- keeper. But, perhaps, distance lends en- cbaptment. I’ve a great mindto go round and see her when I get well. ‘hat house is— let me see—the same number as this, for these streets are numbered just alike. But then I should not know who to ask for. It would be rather awkward to ask for the lady who sits tewing by the window up two fl'gits, for it’s a lodging-nouse, where folks are not supposed to know each other’s business. I guess she is alone inthe world, forshe don’t seem to have many callers; sv there would be no use to taik§ about her,’”’ he thought, spite- fully, remembering how Dora Rovinson, @ spinster of forty five, had refused to come and keep house for him, a man of twenty- eight, for fear people would talk. ‘*N» one would be fool enough to accuse me of de+igas on tbat ancient femule,” he thougnht, ungallant- ly.**f shouldn’t think of meddling with iny grandmother.’’ The idea of getting this quiet, lady-like person across the yard to keep house for him seemedto possess him. “I should think she might prefer it to that everlasting in that room. all day long with oaly sewing. 1 wish I couid call across and ask ber. Hang conventionalities! It’s a deuced bore when a man in my position.”’ A sudden gustofsummer wind, bearing onits wings the odor of flowers, swept through the yards, causing the blinds to cluse witha quick clatter, stirring the grape-vines smartly une causing a small commotion among the toliage ofthe trees. ‘‘(Qjuite a little whirl- witd,’’ he thought, and at that moment he saw ascrap of something white sail yiickly out of her window and whirl fantastically over the jards. It meandered a few moments gracefully, then, like a carrier dove with a message, it flew straight across to his window, paused a moment in front of it, and then flut- tered into his face. It was a bit of soft, costly, delicate lace. “*lt belongsto her work,’’ he thought; **wonder if she saw where it came?’’ He looked across to her window. Her hed was turnedin his direction. He held up the lace, of which there was about half a yard, She nodded withasmile that showed her pearly teeth. Woxuder if they are her own,’’ be thought. Hesaw her get up and put on her bat andshawl. “She is coming,” he thought. This is too valuable to lose.’”’ Before lung he heard the beil ring, and the girl came to teil him that a lady at the door wanted something, she could not tell what. She understood herto say something about a bit of lace. ‘‘Show her up,’’ he said, and insa few moa- ments the lady he bad so much desired to see closer stood inthe room. Sbe had a bright, good-natured, practical face; just the face he should suppose wouid be associated wita her movements. She was past her first youth, was probably thirty-five. He politely asked her to be seated. ‘*T called for my lace, which the wind was il-naiured enough to carry off,’? she said, with afrank smile. **Whicb | am happy to return to you,” be said as he passed it to ber. ‘“Itisasmal picce,’’ she said, ‘‘but it is quite expensive.

She looked at him in surprise and half sus- picion, and he buastengd to explain the situa- tion in Which be was placed. ‘*| want some one neat and capable to take charge of my bouse,’’ he finished; ‘*wou’t vou accept the situation?” **Why do you suspect I am neat and capa- ble?’ she asked, a good deal surprised at the, to her, premature proposal. **] don’t know, only that I have been watch- ing your movements for weeks,” he told her, ‘‘and I believe you would be the right one in the rigbt place, if you would only saecept the situation. You can havea girl, and unlimit- ed control over the house. You can ascer- iain my standing by irquiry at the firm of Bent & Knight. Will you come?’’ “Don’t you wanta rccommendation?’’ she asked with a smile. ‘*No; yeur face and manner are rezommen- dation enough.’’ **[ have no one to consult but myself.

We will trv to exist until I feel sure you will make a change in this house.”? He had seen her quick eye tak- ing in the general disorder, the iivtered carpet, the table strewn with odds and ends of al- most everything. Just then poor, neglected little Mabel pushed open the door, singing a Jittle song she had heard in her, childish fash- ion. She was a sunnv-tempered iittle crea- ture. The lady glanced at her quickly. ‘**This is your little girl you spuke of,’’ she said; ‘*come here and let me see yous”? The child stepped to her timidly. ‘*She is suffering for care,’’ he said, thank- ful, however, that he had given orders to have her face washed. ‘‘Does she look altogether hopeless”? *Not at aij,” a house- the lady returned, in her practical, pleasant way, as she patted the | ; Of Miton’s *Paradise Lost?)——” curly head. ‘*] think she is a nic» little girl.’?’ “By what name shall I call you?” he asked, as she arcse to go. “Mrs. Iddings. And yours is Addison,’ she said. ‘i got my information from tne dcorplate,’’ she added. ‘*Mrs. Iddings,’ he mused, when she had left: ‘‘a widow, I suppose, but with that face not a designing one.” ‘The next weck the reign of Mrs. Iddings as housekeeper commenced.

Nothing sentimental about her: at least, nothing I can discover, but a fine, sensible. practical womap.”’ Ana when she had got the domestic machin- ery running smoothly Mrs. Iddings sat down one day and wrote this note: **“DEAR MARION—Come and see me at 63 —— street. Come prepared to stay a week. Sur- prised at my change? Well, come,and we will talk it over. I am housekeeper for a | were old acquaintances. soon as you can.’’ And the next evening, a few minutes after bis return from his business, Mr. Addison, passing through the hall, answered the door- bell, which rang just then. A lady stood there when he opened the door, and she asked for Mrs. Iddings. The sound of the voice struck some answering chord in his heart, but the la- dy wore avail and it was growiog dusk, 80 that he could not distinguish her features. ‘‘Please step in here and I will call her,’’ he said, opening the door of the parior. She walkedin. Hé stopped to light the gas. As it flashed out brightly the two looked into each other’s faces. ‘*Marion!’’ ‘*Burke! I did not know I was coming to your house,’’ she fal- tered. She looked graver than of old, but to his eves was s ill the same sweet Marion. ‘‘And I did not know you were within a thousand miles of me,’’ he exclaimed; ‘‘but I meant to search for you soon.’”’ The two were forgetting the existence of Mrs. Iddings, but she, passing througno the ball, heard her frieud’s voice, and was much surprised to find that Mr. Addisoa and she She und Marion had been friends fur a year, but the latter had never let her into the sad secret of,her life. She had remained unmarried ail these years, and bad drifted to the city where be was, but had not known of bis whereabouts or his wife’s death. Mrs. Iddings was duly ac- quainted with ber story and was imuca pleased that she had been the means of bring- ing together the long separated lovers. Of courre, in due time they Were marvied. And Burke was seized with adesiie for ma'‘ca- making, and introduced Frank Peabody to Mrs. Iddings, bringing him home to ber one evening before she left. Andthe upshot was that she agreed to become Frank’s house- keeper for life.

[From the Lond: n Standard. | Lamb was invited to meet a somewhat mix- ed company. One was Mr. D , a retired cheese-morger, Who had been for years in some commission connected with tne poor- laws. Hewas a pompous man, with a grand affectaticn of having been born to the exalted posit.on. Atonetimein the course of the dinner opinions ran at variance as to the prop- er methcds of dealing with pauperdom, and Mr. D——— assumed a very high manner. ‘-Gentiemen,’’ he said. thrusting his thumbs intothearm-holes of his vest, lying back in bis chair, and inflating his lungs to their ut- most capacity—*Gentiemen, I should know what I am speaking of, with all my years in the pubhe service, and with my opportunities fer studying the dispositions of these misera- ble and trvoublesome paupers. Gentlemen, they are as worthless and ungrateful as they are and have been improvident. The time has been, gentlemen, when I had some of the milk of human kindness in my breast for these wretches; but now’— and he paused for a moment in order to let the conclusion came more overwhelmingly. ‘-N-now,” broke in Lamb, with his poor, toin face all childish innocence—*‘n-now, Mr. DD , | sup-p-pose that m-milk is all m- made up into ch-ch-cheese!’? Lamb received an invitation on a certain evening to be pres- ert ata breakfast at Rogers’ the following morning, to meet a young author, whose first volume of poetry left the press that day. He went atrifle early and reached the waiting- room While it was vacant, Rogers not having come down, and none of the other guests having arrived. Onatable lay a copy of the young poet’s new book. Lamb picked it up, ran through it, saw that itcontained nothing of any special mark, and then, in the few min- utes yet remaining, amused himself by com- mitting to memory three or four of the short poems it contained. The guests arrived—among them the young aspirant fur honors. Some of the jeagirg men of the London world of letters Were among the number. Rogers de- scendcd, the young man was introduced, and the breadfast was served. Some literary matters came under dis- cussion, pending the after-introduction of the jcurng poet’s book. Withthe gravest of faces, afterafew moments, Lamb said: “I d-con t think, g-ygentiemen, that I h-have ever r-repeated to you one of my best p-pocms. What e-stay? Will you h-have it?’ Nobody quite understood what was coming, but all could read the mischievous flash in the eye that was usually so kindiy; and the de- mand forthe poem was general. Lamb qui- etly re peated, word for word, one of the po- ems from the young man’s book. The key Was furnished to the rest, when they saw the young poet pale, then redden and then fall buck In his chair, as astonised as if thunder- | struck, and as helpless as if paralyzed. Loud | cheers, clapping of hands, and demands for on more. Lamb bowed his thanks, pretended not to remember anything else that be had lately Wiltten, and then, under urying, re- peated another, and yet another, of the po- ems from the young man’s book, the bud- ding poet manifesting, symptoms of doubt whether he was himself, w bether anvthing on the earth was real, whetber he had really written the poems that upto that time he had believed that he bud—until he heara a man declaiming them, and claiming them for hisown; aman who could not even have seen his unpublished book. Louder cheers, and a still louder de- mund for yet another. The fun, with all the ‘*ol. uns’? now thoroughly instructed, began to grow ‘‘fast and furious.’’ Lamb, who had previously retained his sitting position, now rose and said: **G-gentlemen, I having only been g-giving yous-some ]-little bits of m-my poetry. Butl b-have one p-poem that I am a little p-proud of. IJ wr-wrote it a g-good m-many years ago.

An Infatuation Which Lured Two Men to Death—A Muuntuin Cleopatra and Her Works. [Marshall (Ark.) Cor. Chicago Journal. | Searcy is one of the wildest and most moun- tainous counties in Arkansas. Its deep ra- vines, dark chasms, steep mountain heights appal one. They are solitude’s chosen do- mains, and yet nature has made them pict- uresque as well as awful, and one finds in them much to admire. Although sparsely settled, the county con- tains both wealth and intelli- gence. The people are made up from the older families of Tennessee and South Caro- lina. Some of these claim to be lineal de- scendants of John C. Calboun aad other distin- guished statesmen of the pastcentury. While it is a fact that “blood will tell,’”’ it is likewise true that it will doso in more ways than one. For this land, like the favored Orient, accords well with the poet’s thought— ‘*Where the virgins are fairasthe roses they twine, And all but the spirit of man is divine.’’ Hence, some of the most interesting contribu- tions to the records of crime may be found in this locality. Only a few miles from here lived a wealthy widow named Louisiana Haig, connected with some of the most prominent families in the State. Her advent into society shortly after the death of her husband, Major Haig, caus- ed a social sensation. Her aumirers number- ed legion, for, in addition to vast wealth, she possessed personal charms of an extraordi- nary character and a disposition that made her welcome everywhere. Her voluptuous figure, dark, flashing eyes, tawny black hair and crimson cheeks furmed a vision of female loveliness that few masculine hearts, old or young, could successfully resist. Of course this breeded trouble. A bitterrivalry sprang up amoag the competitors for the loveiy widow’s hand, and more than one duel—none of which, how- ever, proved fatal—owed its origin to her funcied preference. As time went on, the swarm of adorers which hovered about this mountain Cleopatra grew gradually less, that lady indicating to firet one and then another that his devotion and affection eould not be reciprocated. Therefore, it was not long be- foreal] the worsbippers at her shrine had reluctantly vanishea, exoept two young men by the name of Claib Jackson aad Arnold Vanmetie, each of whom believed he had succeeded in arousinga reciprocal affection in the widow’s apparently obdurate heart. Young Jacksun belonged to an old and highly respectable family, and was the youngest ot six brothers. He was nearly, if not altogether, six feet tall. He possessed enormous strength, and was considered the best marks-, man in four counties. He was handsome and very popular. Arnoli Vanmetre was almost his opposite. He also wasa member ofa prominent family, but there the similarity ended. He was pa'‘e, slender and homely. Prior to the war bis father had been consid- ered one of the richest menin Helena, and, though !iosing heavily by it, at his death he bequeatbed Arnold a very large sum _ of money. The young man’s retiring disposi- tion made him few friends, but those who knew him were warmly attached to him. Such were the men for whom the faseinat- ing Mrs. Haig showed a decided preference. W bich of the two she really loved is, even to this day, a matter of conjecture. Perhaps it Was a question she could not herself satis- factorily answer; perhaps she cared littie for either. At any rate, she kept them both dancing attendance upon her, seemingly re- Jue ant or unwilling to forego their attentions. Each was buoyed up with the thought that he alone possessed her love; for she gave each just enough encouragement to keep alive bis infatuation. Sometimes Jackson appeared to be the favored one; again Van- metre seemed to have her heart in his keep- ing. Thus matters stocd when the crisis came. For, as a maiter of course, the young men quarreled about the object of their passion. A duel was arranged between them, anda time and place appointed forthe meeting: but their parents and relatives got aa in&ling of the aflair,and putan endtoit. After this there was.a suspension of hostilities for a few weeks, at the end of which time the bad blood between them again came to the surface. Jackson and Vanmetre met at the town tav- ern, both had been drinking, and ene word broughton another. Jackson required Van- metre to apologize for cartaia language he hud used previously in speaking of Ji: cksor, and upon his refusal to do so, drew a cane he ecarrietl and beat Van- metre severely. They were separated, the latter remarking sigaificantly, that **the end was not yet.’? This was on Sunday. Vanmetire took council with his friends as to what course be had better pursue in the mat- ter, and was told that the insult could only be wiped out with Jackson’s blood; that unless this was dore, he was forever ruined ia the estimation of Mrs. Haig. Oa Monday, in company with two hot-headed friends, he started out in search of Jackson, whom he found at Mrs. Haig’s country-seat. Jackson came out on the piazza, and, in response to Vanmetre’s demand for an_ gpology, suid he had none to make, and that he regretted nothing be hid done. Vanmetre looked at his friends, both of whom said: ‘*‘Yuu must whip him like a dog!’’ Mrs. Huig then interfered, coully ad- vising the gentlemen, if they wan:ed to kiil each otLer, to leave her premises! She then withdrew. Vanmetre drew a _ cow-hide. which he had concealed under his coat, and advanced upon Jackson, who, with a revolver, shot Vanmetre dead! The tragedy occupied scarce ten minutes. Afcer the murder Jackson attempted to es- cape, but was arrested and jodged in jail. Bail Was promptly furnished, and he was set free. His trial was set for an early day, but pubhe opinion was s0 strong against him that ix was found impossible to: get a jury to try him. A change of venue was taken to an adjacent county, and, after much delay, the trial took place. it was highly sensational. There were fifty or sixty witnesses, and the affair occupied three weeks. Mrs. Haig was p.t on the witness stand, but her testimony told powerfully against the prisoner. She testified as to Arnold Vanmetre’s meek disposition and Claib Jackson’s high temper; related in detail the events of the latter’s visit to her on the morning of the fatal shooting, when she said he nad declared his iotention of killing youny Vanmetre on sight! She was cross-ex- amined, but to no purpose. Ten minutes after she stepped from the witness-box the jurv, without leaving their seats, returned a verdict of guilty, assessing toe puni-hment at fifteen years in the State Prison: When the verdict was announced Jackson was entirely overcome, and Wept like acnhild. Asked if be had anything to say against the justice of the sentence, he responded that whiie be would give the world to restore bis victim to life, he bad nothing to reyret. As be was led away he passed Mrs. Haig (who neither by sig nor look recognized him), and said, passionaely: **This is your work. I have wrecked my life for your sake, and this is my reward.’’? The beautiful and heartless woman pulled her veil more closely over her face, and turned away without a word. Jackson’s friends carried the case up to the highest court, but without sucvess. How- ever, he did not goto the Penitentiary; for, with the aid of his brothers, he broke jail and fled to Texas, where he met his death ina sa- loon brawlin Austin. Mis. Haig soon after the trial removed to Mobile, Ala., and with her disappearance the curtain fell upon tne last scene of a somewhat tragic life-drama. - —— ee ee ee - DUMAS FILS.

The author intended it to be moral; he wanted to showthat even women ofthe demi-monde have much native goodness. generosity and devotion; that they will immolate themselves on the altar of their affections; that they have capacities for vir- tue which are pot suspected; that they may, in a word, commit sin against conventionality usualiy unpardoned and unpardonable aad yet rire on occasion to moral heights. With this view the novel or the play teaches a les- son of charity, leading us to compassionate a class Which society expels and then shuts and fastens the door with triple bars. If there were nota dealof truth and naturein the work, it never could have had the effect it has had the world over. ‘*The Ladv of the Camellias,’ like most of Dumas’ productions, is based on fact—found- edtoa degree on his personal experience. Marguerite Gauthier inthe drama was areal person, noted for her beauty, grace, elegance, and ber career was substantially as depicted by the author. Ihave heard that she was once his mistress; also that he learned her history through a \oung physician—the Ar- mand Duval of the English version—who had returned hither from Italy after Marguerite, or Camille, had died of consumption. Her fur- niture, pictures, bric-a-brac—all her effects— Lad been sold at auction when she died, and crowds attended the sale, because she had been the fashion. Dumas went there amoog the rest. and bought a curious ring as a mem2ato of thewoman. Some weeks later a stranger called, and, on meeting him, the young author found that he was the pbhysicisa who had been Marguerite’s lover, andi who had come to irquire if he could, by purchase or favor, secure thering bought at the auc- tion. The two men having been attracted mutually, Armand narrated his entire rela- tion tothe dead lorette. The novel is, with certain changes, poetic licenses, and liberal idealization, atranscript ofthe ac'ual. It is anexponent of the literature of the demi- monde, in which Dumas has so long worked, and worked so ablyand zealously as to be reck- oned its chief. ‘The success of the drama prompted the late Theodore Birriere to write “Les Filles de Marbre,’’ known to the English publie under the name of ‘* fhe Mar- ble Heart,’? as amore truthful tvpe of the half-world, and as a set-off to ‘Dumas’ very flattering and+rentimental portraiture.

AGRICULTURAL. Weeds. When at the end of the sixth day the Crea- tor beheld everything that He had made, we are told thatit was very good. Afterwards there was a garden planted, in which grew every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good forfood. Soon after this we read of thorns and thistles, and then follows the calamity ofthe ages: ‘‘In the sweat of tay face shalt thou eat thy bread!” We thought of this to-day as we saw a wheat field taken by the terrible pest Pigeon Weed. Itis anew comer, but it has come to stay. Itbhasa profusion of roots and seeds. The seeds fallinthe summer, germinate in the fall, the roots mat themselves in the soil, and when the grain is thin the weeds spread and take full possession. Wehave been look- ing for itfortwoortbree years, but to-day the multitude of little blue blossoms announc- ed their unwelcome arrival. We boughtrye in Cincinnati last fall and the accursed thing was broughtto usinthe sacks of rye. We bave determined to sacrifice the rye; that the sneaking blue bloomer must go under next week. One friend of ours says when he meets with a plant of this weed on his farm he digs it up and carries it with bim to the fire. Another has burned his straw over the field where the pest went to seed one year, and yet good cultivation has net cleared the field of LLe est. ve ily by sweat the curse must be held in check.

The ox-eyed daisv can be exterminated from our meadows without plowing, provided they be tuken intime. We love tosee clean timothy hay, anc we have not barn room for white top. Our method isto go through the meadow when the daisy isin bloom, or before, while the grourd is damp and soft, and hand;pull thoroughly. Ir isnotsosiow or difficult a task as one wouldthink. If allowed to seed the land, it will take years to exterminate it. Now is the time to p!an the attack on weeds.

The poultry-raising industry of Priace kl- ward Island is beginning to attractJattention as an important branch of itstrade. Its ex- ports of eggs last year, exclusive of those sent to the Dominion, were at 353,028, having in- creased from 338 482 in 1876. Lt is proposed to develop and expand this trade by formioga poultry association, with the object of im- roving stock by the importation of the be-t oreeds, and circulating information in regiril to breeding, rearing, and finding a marke: for produce. One of the largest cattle dealers in Ontario says the Canadian cattle trade is being greatly injured by the excessive charges made at the pest of Montreal for carrying Canadian cattie. he price demanded there is from five to six_ pounds, whereas Boston only charges four pounds per head, the railway freight to tbe respective ports being about the same.

To drive these to the Yellowstone country, where they will winter, will require 800 head of horses and the services of 120 men. Forty wagons accompany the drive,and about 100 stand of loaded rifles will always be on hand, ood for 3,000 shots at any band of hostile In- jans that may attack them.

It was decided that a committee is to draft a law taxing Ken- tucky dogs, the fund thus created to be used in repayment of losses resulting from dog depredatiors.

From different parts of Germany c)me com- plaints of enormous losses of sheep from feeaing on lupins. ‘rhese losses are said to be very frequent in Silesia, Brandenburg, Saxony. Pemerania, and West Prussia. In Marea Ukrain, recently, a whole flock of sey- en hundred ewes died in two days from feed- ing on these plants, and in a second instance but one hundred was saved out of a large flock. The causes of the excessive mortality have been made the subject of special experi- mental investigation by Prof. Dammann, who fed healthy sheep with hay made from the lupins, with the result that nearly all suffered to a fatal extent. The lupin hay seemed to be perfectly sound, with the exception that afew fungi of the pleospera species were found up- onit. But these are habitually found on otber plants that bave no such injurious effect on animals tlat partake of them. A writer in the Fanciers’ Journal,ia speak- ing of ducks, pronounces the Aylesbury and Pekin the best varieties, the former being noted for its lange white eggs ana delicately flavored flesh, and the latter for the richness of its eggs,good constitution and rapid fatten- ing. The Rouin is pronounced only slightly inferior in flavor and im quality of eggs to the above, matures earlier aod is hardier. The Aylesburv and Pekin commence laying in February, and contjnue for five months, with two orthree brief intermissions. When the duck wants to sit she should have from twelve to fifteenfeggs, and should sit in a separate division kept for that purpose. The door should always be open duringthe day, and she should have sufficient water near by to bithein. The time of incubation is twenty- eight days. After the ducklings are all hatched they should not be disturbed for twenty-four hours, when they are ready for food, which should consist of hard boiled eggs well mixed with oatmeal. Whenthree orfour days old they may have Oatmeal mixed with milk and a little grain. The ducklings should not have access to water, except to drink, until they receive their feathers, when they can swim without ipjury. How to Cook Eggs. HARD-BOILED EGGs.—Put the eggs in hot water to cover and boil twenty minuves. Ten minutes will boil them hard, but they are not so digestible as when boiied twenty. Ten minutes makes the yoiks hard and soggy; twenty minutes makes then light and mealy. SPANISH EGGS.—Cook one cup of rice thirty minutes in two quarts of boiling water, to Which has been added one tablespoonful of salt; drain through a colander, and then ad@.gne tablespoonful of butter. Spread on ahot platter very lightly. Now on the rice place six dropped eggs, and serve. : CREAM SAUCE.—One tablespoonful of but- ter, one teaspoonful of flour, one cup of cold mik, salt, pepper; put butter im small and, when hot, add _ flour, stir until perfectiv smooth. but do not let it brown; then add tne milk gradually, stirring ali the time, boil two miautes, then add chichen ard pepper, and salt to taste. SOFT-BOILED EGGs.—I.—Place the eggs in & Walim raucepan, and cover wth builing water: letthem stand wheretbey will keep hot, but not boil, for ten minutes. This method will cook both whites and yoiks. II. —Place the eggsin boiling water and boil three minutes and a balf. By this method ihe white of theevg is hardened so quickly that the heat does uot penetrate to the yolk until the last minute, and consequently the white is hard and the yolk hardly cooked enough. The first method is therefore the most healthful. EGGS ALA SAM WARD.—Boil half a dozen fresb eves hard as for wu salad; when cooked drop themin cold water. Take off sheil and remove the yolks, keeping — whole. Mash up yolks smoothly with sweet-oil. Pound in a mortar four anchovies, with one truffie as large as a walnut. Ada to tnis half a teaspoonful of tarragon vinegar and a very Jittlé red pepper, and lastly a crumb of bread which bas been 1ubbed on a clove of garlick, and mix thoroughiy with the volks. Refill the whites and put on ice until served.—([J. Street, Washington, D. C. dishes come purposely for this mode of serv- ing eggs.
