A Formidable Array of Statesmen Al- ready on the Field, - Interviews with Pierrepont, Dennison, Foster, Filley and Other Leading Lights. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, May 29.—The principal event of the day was the arrival this morning of the Blaine special train from the East, consisting of five coaches and carrying about 250 of Blaine’s most ardent Eastern admirers. They were re- ceived by the local Blaine committee, and sa- lutes were fired at Hyde Park as they came in. CAMERON. The anti-Grant members of the Nation’! Re- publican Committee had a caucus last night, ut which they discussed the proposition to de- pose Senator Cameron from the chairmanship. The Sherman interest was opposedto such a step, however, and it is understood that a resolution was passed that he should be instructed not to recognize the unitrule inthe voting on the temporary organization of ths convention.

CHICAGO, May 29.—The Blaine train with about 250 persons arrived this morning and made considerabie commotion .at the Grand Pacific Hotel whither mostof the passengers went. The Grant managers have decided to bold a meeting Monday evening in Dear. born Park. Conklipg, Logan, Carpenter an‘ Woodford will be speakers. Among to-day’s prominent arrivals are Thos. C. Piatt, New York, Gen. Garfield, Senator Hamlin, Con eressinan Frye and Edward McVherson, Puaila- uelphia. GRANT AND SHERMAN, In eninterview Mi. Chauncey I. Filley, of Missouri, said that John Sherman wust ve nominated forthe Vice-Presideacy and must accept the nomination. He thought the ticket ‘*Grant and Sherman’’ would be invincibie, and would carry every Northern State. He hoped that Secretary Sherman would accept the nomination in case Gen. Grant was nom- inated for President. He thought it would be to his honor, as it would certainly be to the honor of his party. The Hon. John C. New, of Indiana, in talking about the Vice-Presidential question, says that his State will present the name ot General Har- rison and in casethe head of the ticket was selected from the East, General Harrison would be an avuilable candidate. Mr. New said be would be glad to support General Wickham, of Virginia, tor this sition and thought that Wickham would make an accept- able candidate, particularlyinthe South. He knew him weil, and he was an able man and very popular in Virginia. Ex-Senator Clayton thought that the South- west sbould have some recognition on the ticket and that no better choice for Vice-Presi- dent could be made than ex-Governor Davis, of Texas. Hedid not wish to be understood as preierring Governer Davis to any other particular’ candidate, but he thought he was as good a man as had been mentioned, and so popular was he that he thoughtit very prop able that his name upon the ticket would carry the State of Texas forthe Republican party. EDWARDS PIDBRREPONT. Ex-Minister Edwards Pierrepont said that until consultation had been had over tne local troubles he was hardly fitted to speak about them. His early arrival here was forthe pur- pose uf getting posted on this ne teen tegarding the much prophesied disregard of instructions for Grant on behalf of New York delegates, Mr. Picrrepont said the bolt was ‘*oxtremely exaggerated ,us will be seen when it comes to the test.’’ Those people who are not now in favor of Gen. Grunt’s nomination would in New York come to his support when he was nominated. ‘*‘Eventhe voung scratchers ot New York ‘ o ‘+7 will not assert it positively, but I believe nothing else.’’ The business interest of the great city and great State of New York WOULD FEEL A SECURITY inthe nomination of Gen. Grant that they would not feel in the nomination of any other man. ‘‘And wein New York bave tne greatest contidence as well as desire that he will be nominsted; our general view isthat he will be nominated. VPersonaily, 1 ama most hearty advocate of Gen. Grant.’’ ‘*Itf I should ask you why, you would. say?’’ ‘*That the Republican party should remain for another term in power, and that, under all the circumstances, he would be the safest ex- ecutive bead for the nextfour yeurs, and that we Can more ecasily agree upon him and more surely elect him than any other of the eminent candidates. Take any six intelligent KRepubli- cans whom you know opposed to the ex-Presi- dent, andask themone by one alone whou they preter. Geaaee? they will name sev- eral; but bring them down to one,and thas askif{they thinkthat one can be nominated, and they will frankly teli you no, let the Republicans of this country cust their secret ballot to-day, and there ts nu doubt that the ex-President would receive four times more votes than any other one man. The arithmetical calculations which were re. cently published to prove thatthe ex-Presi- dent cannot receive the nomination in the con- vention will be found defective in several fac- tors. The forty-tour votes of Ohio are never mentioned as for the ex-President. We shail see, after the complimentary vote to Onbio's eminent and bonored statesman.’’ ‘* You gaid you thought the opposition to the ex-President would disappear?’ ‘* Yes. THE CHIEF BUGBRARS which are beld uv to trighten bonest people out of their convictions are ‘Third Term’ aad ‘The Germans.’ the coovention meets | the people oS eo littie more into these two questiens, they will Gnd that every on c. . - .

The. Germans who are Republicans arc Kepublic ins trom principles which they do not desert fora whim. THE UNIT RULE. Gov. Foster, of Ohio, a strong Sharmantte, speaking of the unit rule. said: ** The question. is a very intricate and difficuit one. many tak- ing the view, that it will arise upen the an-. nouncement by the Chairman of the National Committee vpon the presentation of the name of a temporary chairman. It will certainly arise fat that time if his nomination is antag- onized. The question of how he will ra'+ has been debated. It seems 10 me that he muss necessarily rule (aud I believe that Senator Cemeron intends to be entire!y fa rin the dis- - charge of his official duties) that, laasmuch ds the unit rule has never obtained in any National Republican . Uon- vention, that upon this question. that is to say, the selection of temporary chairman, the delegates are at liberty to vote as they choose without regard totheunit rulé. But, possibly, and Ithink provably, some States have instructed their delegates tovote esa unit upon all questions. I think 1: wil! be found upon this first vote, if the question sh ul chen be raised, that there Will bea maj» ity against the unitrule. Then, of course, the question would come, subsequently upon the adoption of the rules, but that would be regarded asa test vote, I should say, and a practical settie- ment of the question.’’ ‘‘Would the doing away with this rate change the RELATIVE STRENGTA OF THE CANDIDATES?’’ ‘‘Itmust necessarily reduce Gen. Gvant’s- at vote considerabiy.’’ ‘*And | probably increase Secretary Sher- wa’s”’ ‘‘It would help both Sherman and Blaine, probably.’’ **‘How about the Illinois fight? think will be the outcome?’’ | ‘*From the little attention I have given the subject, it would reem that the Llilinois conven- tion was ab least incon-i-tent iv upplying the district rule to Co#k county, and denying the sume rule to the State. In Ohio, where Sher- man’s frieuds hud more than two-thirds of tbe convention, wedid not think it was either le- vally or morally right to select by the conven- tion the entire furty-four delegates, which we cculd have done if we had adupted the tactics of the Illinois convention. We permitted the districts to elect theirown delegates, and so doing possibly lost to Sherman nine votes.’’ ‘*Which are for Blaine if not tor Sberman?’’ ‘*Thev are for Biuine.’’ ‘*On the ve first bal'o'?’’ ‘*Well, Luon't know. It is probable that those gentlemen, some ot them, may, onthe first or subsequent ballots, Vote tor Mr. Sher- Inan.’’ ‘*‘What strength do vou give Secretary Sher- man on the first ballot?’’ ‘‘Our estimate would be 150 votes, and, hay= ing conducted his canvassin such a way as to be comparatively free from antagonisms and bitterness, and with the universal feeling that his candidacy would be a good thiue, I have very sirong Lope of his final success.’”’ Revertingto the unit rule, Governor Foster said it would give Gen. Grant probably @ ma- jority of the convention, or very near it. *‘But it seems to methatthe chairman must rule— because that has been the ruling of all former conventions—that the delegates can vote in- dividually asthey choose. Assuming that he is fair, lsay he mustrulethat the precedents established by former conventions must con- - trol until reverrev by this, and therefore, that. each individual delegate is to be allowed to. vote as he pleases, exvept in caves where the instructions are to vote as a unit upon all’ questions.’”’ Ex-Governor Dennison, of Ohio, also strong- lp Sherman, expressed hiwseif as follows 0a the unit rule: ‘‘Ican only answer you thatthe friends of Mr. Sherman will coppers the entorcement of the unitrule by ail the means in their power, regarding the rule itself as anti-Repuplisan, 7 tly wrong.

MILWAUKEE, May 27.—A prominent gentle+ mun in this city received to-day a letter from’ one of Grant’s most intimate friends and sup- porters at Galena. The Times reporter is per- mitted the fol'owing extract: I have velayed answering yours of the 22nd, hoping for more developments in the Presiden- tisl fight. Now lam like yourself pretty weil convinced that Gen. Grane will be nominated at Chicago. There will be, of course, a devil ofa tight, and a great many sore-heads to patch up after the scrimmage; but Iam econfi- dent that we can hold our own. The General is as COO! asever, has but little to say, confident, I think, that the thing will come out all right. The person writing the letter is of such prominence as a friend ot Gen. Grant asto make his utterances almost equivalent to an expression by Grant bimself, BRUCE'S BOOM. WASHINGTON, May 27.—J. Milton Turner, who originated the movement to piace Senator Bruce in the second position upon the Repab- lican ticket at Chicago, was to-day asked how the movement was progressing. ‘‘Splen ‘idly; better than the most sanguine of us uaficiel- pated,’’ replied the disiinguished black He- publican. ‘We shailhave at least sitty-one votes to start with, and! know of no »0dy who stands better thun that.’ ‘*But bave you any really strong white dele- gates t) sdvocate bis cause?’’ ‘Yes; several froin New Eng'and, whose names I do not cure to mentign.’ ‘*Why so much secrecy?’’ ‘Well, we have learned by experiencé that | we must b2 subtie in all our movements, li [ should make public the nawes of men who wik help us, wiseacres and fainthearts of tne par would at once set to work all possible fufia- ences to induce them to desist.’ ‘*So that friencs inthe Republican party have _ ~ to adhere tothe underground railroat eye en of locomotion a8 in olu slave days?'’ ‘‘Yes.

But enough of sentiment and history and all such heavy summer reading. It occurs to me that a few werds concerning Mr. Frost, your representative from THE Lie canotiiaiate ae might be gratifying to his cons s, eta it Sonia’ be entirely just to himself, without disparagement to any of his col- leagues. The session is drawing to a close and the youngest member of the House has certainly made a good record, as well as a host of friends at both ends of the Capitol. It was largely through his influence and effort that a favorable report was_ secured on the Oklahoma bill, in which the people of Missouri are so _ greatly interested. It was he who introduced the bill for an ice harbor at St. Louis, and with the able co-operation of Mr. Clardy secured an appropriation for that purpose of $50,000. _ was Mr. Frost who, in conjunction with Judge Buckner, secured an appropriation of $30,000 for the harbor at St. Charles. He was also one of the most earnest advocates of the formation of a committee to have sole charge of Mississippi River improvements, ard in all respects has shown a very active in- terest in matters of practical concern to the peopie. At the same time he _ has established a fair reputation as an eloquent and effective speaker, as specially notedan his Blair monument speech. Alto- gether Mr. Frost gives promise of being one of the most useful members that Missouri ever hadin Congress, andjthe Third District will doubtless keep him where he is. They can not do better. MISCELLANEOUS. Of the weather it is unnecessary‘to speak. Everybody who can get away—that is, every- body except Congress—is preparing to git. We who stay must rest content to fry upon the street or parboil in the house, breaking the monotony of this vast cqoking range ‘by an occasional cruise down the Potomac or excursion to the Blue Ridge. Mr. and Mrs. Hayes will pass the warmer portion of the season at the Soldiers’ Home, in company with the Congressional Committee recently appointed to investigate that concern; and it is proper to state in this connection that the executive cow has recently given birth to twin calves. Yesterday was the Hanlan-Riley boat race, but there was no special interest in the event. Public enthusiasm had cold water poured all over it by the Hanlan-Courtney fiasco, and even a temperature of 95 degs. in the shade couldn’t warm it up again. R. H. 8. Nevada’s First Gold Nugget. {From the New York Tribung.-1 Nevada’s first nugget was mined with a butcher’s knife. John Orr started across the plains in 1849. The roads were bad, the wea- ther was worse, and he was obliged to remain through the winter at Salt Lake. In April he resumed his journey. He had a partner nam- ed Nick Kelly, after whom Kelly’s Ravine is named, and in the company was William Prouse, nowlhlivingin Nurb City, forty miles southeast of Salt Lake. Prouse had worked in mines before gold was discovered in Coloma, and was a good prospector. One day the train stopped on the edge of what is Known as Gold Canon, near the Carson Liver, to let the ani- mals feed on some bunch grass found growing among the sage brush. Prouse at noontime took a milk pan, and going down to the guich began washing dirt, ina few minutes getting color tothe value ofa few cents. Orrthen named the place Gold Canon. The train soon after resumed travel, goingto the head of the Carson Valley. There they met a party of seven, who had left the train at the sink of the Humboldt, intending to go in advance to California and select good locations for the re- mainder of the party. They had been unable to cross the countrv, and bad been lost in the snow in the mountains four or five days, un- able to tind the divide to Hangtown. A stay in Carson for three weeks followed, when Orr, Kelly and several others returned to Gold Canon and resumed prospecting. Kelly aud Orr went up the canon untila liitle fork was reached, when work was begun. The party hed few tools, and Orr bad nothing but a hnife. While Kelly was working he nuticed a very narrow place at the fork, where the water barely covered a slab of slate rock. Idly he examined it, and, noticing a crevice near the edge, drove the Knife into it, breaking out apiece. .The water running over it washed away the underlying dirt, aniina few seconds be discovered a gola nugget where the rock bad covered it. It was quickly removed and ufterward found to weigh $8 25. This was onthe Ist of June, 1850,nearly thirty vears ago. Pros- pecting was continued, and though gold dust was found in several places throughout the canon, Orr’s was the only nugget. He still has it in his possession, the first ever found in Nevada. —- School-Boy Idiocy. |From the New York Times, 26th. | ‘*The Burial of the Ancient”? brought a rath- er jolly funeral party of Columbia College students around the Worth Monument on Madison Square lastnight. The ‘*Ancient?’ whose decease the students were about to lament was Professor March’s ‘*‘Anglo- Saxon.”? atext book which the members of the Sophomore class are just done with. A copy of the “‘Ancient’’ was carried ona bier te the rendezvous at the monument, preceded by a black banner bearing 4&4 skull and cross- bones and the figures **82.””> The banner was carried by astudent dressed in a grotesque gown of paper muslin and a high hat on which a miniature of the design on the ban- ner was executed in chalk. The bier was car- ried by four students similarly dressed, and following them was a banner with the inscrip- tion, “Great Scott!’’ acompliment to the in- structor in Angle-Saxon. At 10:30 400 stu- dentsdressed in mock collegian robes and wearing false noses and moustaches fell in line in front of Delmonico’s, where a wag- on-load of pich torches was distributed among them. Preceded by asquad of per: splring — and abrass band the students marcbed up Fifth avenue towards the college, occasionally saying ‘*Columbia.’’ Several bouses along the route were decorated with transparencies. Before these the students stopped, cheered, biew tin horns and whirled rattles. In front of Rutger’s Female College three cheers were given for the fair students, some of whom ventured to respond with their handkerchiefs. On reaching the college on Forty-ninth street the students tiled into the campus, where acrowd was awaiting their coming. The bier on which the ** Ancient?’ was carried was deposited infront of a large warm fire and the members of the college gathered around in a circle and wiped off their complexions. The Grand Marshal, Robert Arrowsmith, introduced the orator of the oc- casion, Jumes P, Niece, who made a solemn address. W. K. Otis then read an incendiary. poem, and the *‘Ancient’’ was promptly put into the fire. Afterthe cremation ceremo- nies the students marched in the direction of a cooling fluid, twenty barrels of which had been provided for them. Richard the Third’s Bed. {From **British Battles on Land ana Sea.’*] In the corporation records of Leicester there is still preserved astory curiously illustrative of the darkness and precaution of Richard’s character. Among his camp baggage it was his custom to carry a cumbersome wooden bedstead, which he averred was the only couch he could sleep in; but in which he con- trived to have a secret receptacle for treasure, so that it was concealed under a weight of timber. After Bosworth Field the troops of Ilenry pillaged Leicester; but the royai bed was neglected by every plunderer as useless lumber. The owner of the house afterwards discovering the hoard, became suddenly rich, without any visible cause. He bought land and at length became Mayor of Leicester. Many years afterwards bis widow, who had been leftin great affluence, was assassinated by her servant, who had been privy to the af- fair; and at the trial of this culpritand her accomplices the whole transaction came to light. Concerning this bed, a public print of 1850 states that “about half a century since the relic was purchased by a furniture broker in Leicester, who slept in it for many yéars and showed it to the curious; it continues in as good condition appease? as when used by King Richard, being formed of oak, and having ahigh polish. The daughter of the broker married one Babington, of Rothiey near Leicester, and the bedste Ss remov to =~ atures house, where it is still pre- served.

It has been customary for the Assembly Club, or more properly ‘*The Assembly,’’ as they style themselves, to close their season of terpsichorean entertainments witha picnic, generally held at Groveland Park, Ill. But this year a change was made, and in place ofa picnic, a regular party was given in the House of Public Comfort atthe Fair Grounds. This closing party took place last Wednesday night. The House of Public Comfort is peculiarly adapted to social entertainments, for it pos- sesses uncommon facilities for preparing a supper, and hasa large hall for dancing, to- gether with sitting rooms, dressing rooms, etc. If it were only located a little more con- veniently it would bein greatdemand for sum- mer night festivities. In addition to the reg- uler members of the Assembly, num- bering over 100, there were a number of invited guests present last Wednesday night. Three large ’busses left the residence of Mr. E. C. Simmons— one of the directors of the club —at about 7 p.m. Others in attend- ance went out in private conveyances by twos and fours. There were in allsomeone hun- dred couples present. Supper was announced at half past 9 o’clock, and dancing to the music of Schuchman’s orchestra continued until midnight. The evening was sutticiently cool to make dancing. enjoyable. Among those present were: Mrs. Wm. C., Little, Miss Nannie Merritt, Miss Evans, Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Simmons, Mr. and Mrs. R. L.

[From Chevalier Wykoff's Recollections. ] Some one had told me the formidable editor of the Herald, J. G. Bennett, was among them, and I was only half-pleased at the in- telligence. He was certajnly a man worth knowing, and I was eager to analyze such an extraordinary compound of brain and pluck. Still there was something in him to tnspire dread. He seemed to look on mankind as fit for little else than to be converted into para- graphs, which he never failed to spice with his ironical wit, that made them very piquant, but not over-pleasant for the individual who was made the butt. He had promised his readers tosend them a full account of his travels, beginning with his voyage in the Sirlus. I was standing in the stern while thinking thisover, and, perceiving a tall, slim man near me, I vcntered into conversation, and found him intelligent and quite dignified in tone. His physiognomy was striking—lofty forehead, prominent nose, firm mouth—and the general expression, though somewhat stern, not forbidding. After chatting for some time, I remarked: ‘*T hear the famous Bennett 1s on board.” ‘“‘Yes, I believe he is,’? said the tall man, with a smile. ‘*Do you Know him by sight’? I inquired. ‘*Very well.’’ ‘*Then do point him out if you sce him on deck.” ) ‘‘He is standing before you. Bennett.’? Ispentadeal of time very profitably in talking with the renowned journalist. I found him the antipodes of what one might have expected who read the Herald. No levity, or jocularity, or abandon. In manner and ccnversation he was serious, practical and full of knowledge of all kinds, yet mak- ing no parade of it. His vigorous, positive mind had the effect of a tonic on my romantic temperament. He looked at things earnestly, apalyzed them accurately and came to almost mathematical conclusions. He had a wonder- ful insight of mankind, generally suspected the worst, and thus sometimes fell into error. My name is The Christiancy Scandal. | Washington Cor. Cincinnati Commercial. | A public man has seldom been involvéd ina more disgusting scandal than that which, af- ter an honorable life, has befallen in his old age the Michigan lawyer, Judge and Senator who now bears the title of Envoy Extraordina- ry and Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States to Peru. Papers in the suit for divorce which Isaac P. Christiancy brings against his wife, and ber rejoinder, are at last made pub- lic, anda terribie lot of charges the ancient bridegroom and the youthful bride bring against each other. . Mr. Chris- tiancy alleges repeated acts of adul- tery on the pagt of his wife, while she accuses bim of the most outrageous a@ts of cruelty and abuse, specifying occasions when under the influence of opium and liquor he threatened to ruin her character, knocked ber down with his fists, choked her till marks of his fingers were left on her throat, threat- ened to blow her brains out and conducted bimself generally in a manner brutal enough to befit the most depraved rough in the coun- try. Mrs. Christiancy denies the charge of intidelity, and declares that she only left her busband when life with bim became inteler- able. Whether her counter-charges are true or not there is no doubt thatthe wretched old man is in his dotage, and it is a standing dis- grace to the nation that he should be allowed to continue its official representative ina foreign country.

A meteor ex- ploded in mid-beaven, remained stationary, enlarged, ex and in a few moments noiselessly and rapidly died away.

St. NICHOLAS HOTEL, NEW YORK CITY, May 28.—No wonder New York is delighted with her elevated raiiway. She has need to be, poor city! If the happy little Hub from which lhavebten wont to date my letters to you were cursed with such an outlandish svstem, or lack of system, of *busses and horse-cars, as New York has, she might weil howl for an elevated road, but blessed as she is with the finest, easiest end fastest horse-cars in the world, it is absurd to talk about putting up an unsightly, roaring structure along our pretty, dainty streets and avenues. You have been in New York, of course. Then you know all aboutit. You want to go up town from your hotel. You only want to voa little way, but alittle way in New York —as distance is estimated here—it would kill you to walk, so you don’t want togo by the air-line, and you stand on thecurb and wateh for a’bus. It comes quickly—but the driver is looking at somebody on the oppe- site corner, and you have to gesticulate und shout like a crazy person before you can at- tract his attention. Then he stops, or pre- tends to, for just as you are stepping up through the aoor he starts the vehicle with a jerk that shoots you in most miserably. If you area lady, the nearest gentleman grabs you by the arm and é holds you tight —_—itill you can manage to aim for and drop into a seat. How grateful I have been for these sudden seizures by unknown masculines, inthe lack of which I should certainly have bitten the dust of more than one of these close,musty, dirty, ill-smell- ing coaches. It seems odd to think of the annoyed objection which 1 have always felt at home when a horse-car conductor has grasped my arm, or has placed his palm against the sinall of my back, in ostensible but very unnecessary assistance. But there are no conductors on New York busses, and you soon wish there were. Havy- ing fallen successfully into a seat, you begin to rest and breathe—or try to, rather, for busses are invariably crowded—when you are soon aware that people are staring a little at you, and soon there sounds a harsh, grating, rasping voice, apparentiy from the driver’s box, and looking up you see the legend, over a little brass hole, **Please put exact fure in this box.’’ You suddenly remember, snatch your purse from your pocket and search for a five-cent nickel. Several gentlemen watch your search interestedly,“and when it 1s rewarded with success one or two hands are respectfully held out and your. nickel is deposited for you. Let me say right here,that while I do not think the New York ladies are alto- gether the best dressed women I ever saw, I do think the New York gentlemen without exception are the most courteous of any class of menlI evermet. lf Frenchmen prove as polite, I shall be vastly astonished in fact, I know they are not, for the politeness I mean is not that of society, but that towards strang- ers—towariis a woman because she is a woman, not because sheisa friend or ac- quaintance. They will take the greatest pains to direct you. aright, when you inquire your way, which you are forever doing in this labyrinthine citv, and will give any other information, always with greatest kindness and perfect respect. It is the same whether he be a nobby young swell, a fatherly old gentleman, a soiled mechanic or a uniformed policeman. There mav be men who are not gentlemen in New York—but I haven’t enconntered them, nor did 1 ever meet such an anomaly in any of my visits to the city. Apropos of the ’busses, by-the-way, it is an insoluble connundrum to me how the driver can tell whether correct fares are paid, or enough of them. He must drive through the most tangled streets that ever were, he must be on the constant lookout for would- be passengers, he must make change and he must keep track of thefares. If one er a penny, instead of a five-cent nickel into the box just when the driver is busy telling other teams to get out of his way, how 1s he to know the difference, or who dropped the penny? Or if, when he stops the coach in answer to a signal from one side of the street, more people get in from the other side, how is he to know it? Is it possible that New York is honest enough to be trusted to pay its own way?’ ldon’t understand it! *’Busses in Boston? Oh, yes, we have them there—a few of them—but nobodv rides in them, and so they have all the novelty of a new_ experience here. I don’t think I ever entered a’busathome. But the horse-cars here are so much worse and dirtier and slower than the coaches that the latter are far preferable. The elevated road is ‘perfectly splendid,’’ but you generally have to walk till you are tired before you reach a station, and you can’t retout when you want to,and it costs ten cents every time you step on board, and dimes count up when you spend your entire time on the cars. But itis a fine way to get to Cen- tral Park, that magnificent oasis in which you can get as delightfully lost and beas charm- ingly solitary in some remote _ rustic house,with birds of endless varieties, squirrels and rabbits and other small game all about,as if you were in the wilds of Maine, lalways take care notto say ‘*Boston Com- mqn” inthe hearing of a New Yorker, for they can afford to laugh at us and our little patch of green. There are just three places in New York City that are cool—for 1 am convinced that it is always and ever atorrid city. It certainly always is whenI come here, no matter at what season Iltime my visit. These three places are the Park, Steele Mackaye’s wonder- ful little Madison Square Theater and this hotel! at which my letter is dated. How a house located right in the very heart of this ODblistering city can be so charmingly cool and comforta- ble is more than I can clearly philosophize, though, of course, the large, airy rooms, the long, broad, dim corridors lighted by wells from skylights in the roof, the splashing fountains in unexpected places, and the long draughts of air which draw through from one to another of the streets by which the house is bounded, have much todo with the prob- lem. I don’t believe in “borrowing troubie,’’ but I have been drawing a few preliminary sighs of doubt as to whether, in the course of the three months’ travel that lie before me, 4 shall find anywhere as delightful a hotel as is this, the starting and the vanishing point of my summer’s circle, and whether there will be found another road as easy and pleasant to travel as our own Fall River Line from Boston to New York. Every moment spent in such travel and such abiding is a zen- uine pleasure. A little odd, isy’t it, that two large parties of excursionists meet here at the St. Nicholas Hotel this week? On La pani last a party of about seventy ladies and gentlemen from Eng- land arrived bere en route for Cincinnati to attend the Millers’ Convention, whither they depart to-day. I believe not the Millerifes, nor yet the kind of millers’ convention which those horrid little winged insects hold in eve- ry bouse of modern improvements nowadays and were s&s not i for interminable battles with which avery dear lady friend of mine would be one of us this summer. For you know that to-morrow Is the date of ts of whom your correspondent is to be one,and here, and . Mr. Bord, the Boston agent of Messrs. Henry Gaze & Son, the Lon. don Tourist firm under whose charge the Tourjee parties travel, is also here, while the good or himself is expected to-day The party is made up of material which as_ sures the very best seciety. The beautify) Devonia lies moored tothe pier, awaitins the signal of departure at 9 o’clock a. m., to. morrow, and the evening and the morning will be the last day. We have visited a couple of theaters during our week in New York, and I must give you word about them. Three things were very noticeable at the Union Square: firstly, the remarkably fine singing and act. ing of H. B. Mann’s Comic Opera Com- pany in ‘*Boccaccio;’’ secondly, the magnificent drop curtain, on which is painteq achariot raceinthe Romau Colosseum, so perfectly that the illusion is almost reality: and thirdly, the heat. At the Madison Square Theater there are many noticeable things—too many to enumer- ate here—but chief among which was the sur: prisipgly cool atmosphere, secured by a most perfect and ingenious system of ventilation: the ice-water served by ushers whenever de- sired in little silver salvers; the fascinating play ‘*Hazel Kirke” written bv Mr. Mackaye for the opening weeks of his new theater, aad which bas run to full houses for five months: the double stage, patented by Mr. Mackaye, which utterly avoids ‘*waits’’ between acts: andthe concealed orchestrain a curtained recess over the stage, while the space usually occupied by big fiddles and trombones is fil!- ed with graceful blossoming plants. Itisa wonderful little theater. IDA CLARE, CIVIL ENGINEERS. The Members of the Convention Leave this Morning for Omaha. Last evening the American Society of Ciyi| Engineers wound up their Twelfth Annual Convention with a grand banquet at Masonic Hall, which was a most elegant allair. Dur. ing the four days the convention has been in session the members have combined pleasure with business. Many interesting and valu- able papers have been read and an amount of informatio collected, allof which will bear fruitinthe near future. This morning ail of the engineers, save half a dozen, left the city, and the blue badges were no longer visible at the Lindell Hotel, where the headquarters of the convention were estalb- lished. The visiting members did not return direct to their t®Omes, but instead took the 8:50 train from the Union Depot to Omaha. There were over a hundred in the party, in- cluding several local members end ladies. The excursion to Omaha is organized forthe purpose of visiting and inspecting the bridge across the Missouri River at Plattsmouth, Neb. After reaching that point the a will break up, returning totheir homes. All the visitors to the convention expressed them- selves as highly grateful to the gentlemen of the local committees.The arrangements made by these gentlemen for the comfort and en- tertainment of their guests were excellent, and the members of the convention have had nothing but praises for the St. Louis engi- neers. Among the gentlemen who specially exerted themselves inthe task of entertain- ing the visitors were Mr. C. Shaler Smith, chairman of the local committee, J. C. Gault, Thos. J. Whitman, A. C.

Sheridan Shook’s Divorce. |From the New York Sun, 2¢th. | A decree of absolute divorce has been grant- ed against Sheridan Shook. He mademo op- position, but suffered the case to go against bim by default. He also readily agreed to ive $100 a month alimony for the support of irs. Shook and her four children, who are to remain with her. There are two girls and two boys. The olaest is a girl about twelve years Ofage. Mrs. Shook is soon to sail for Europe. It is not reported that she intends to marry again. It is explained that there had been an estrangement between them for about a year, in the course of which there were two or three occasions when they were induced to live together only bv the intervention of friends and out of consideration for their children. At length Mrs. Shook insisted that she would have a di- vorce, and it is reported that Mr. Shook re- solved to make no opposition. Thomas Harland was employed by the wifegas her lawyer, and a suit was begun. Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Wm. V. Leary was appointed referee to take evidence. An instance of in- fidelity was alleged, and the only material witness was James W. Collier, the actor, who has been known as friend of the husband. Ex-Judge A. J. Dittenhoefer represented Mr. Shook, but no defense was made, not even a denial. The evidence was taken by order of the Court. The referee™ report was filed last Friday. Mrs. Shook owns a house in Fifteenth street and another in ord, Conn., both of which were from her hus- band. They were about fourteen years ago. 4 7 7 .& 2 - \ . _. 4 5 * 5 *< a av i : Ber’ ¥. Bi.

River lmprovements, WASHINGTON, May 28.—The Senate Commit- tee appropriates $75,00u for the reservoir svs- tem at headwaters or the Mis-issippi. The foi- Jowing changes, made by the committee in the river and barbor bill, are of local interest: The appropriution tor Illinois River is de- creased from $110,0U00 to 85,000; for the Mis- sissippi, between the mouths of the Iilinois and Ohio River, frem $250,000 to $200,000. An uppropriation of $2,000 is added to improve Cuivre River from the mouth to the chain of rocks, and removing snags,etc. The appro- priation for removing the bar opposite Du- bugue, Iowa, is increased from $3,0V0 to $7,- u0U; forimproving the Missouri River at Coun- cil B)uffs from $20,000 t@ $30,000; at East- port, Iowa, to Nebraska City, from $14,000 to $20,000; Black River, Arkansas, trom $5,000 to $15,000, The item gsppropriating $25,00V for Hannibai is stricken out, «s is that for build- irg an ice harbor at St. Louis, which is inclua- ed with surveys. Kansas City and Barges, Thisis from the Journal of yesterday: The result of the first practical work fora barge lineisfull of promise. The committee have only three names tothe list of stockholders so tur, butthese three take nearly one-half of whutis assignedto Kansas City. Col. Coates has made yvood his offer ot one of ten to take halt the entire stock, The committee to solicit can now go to work with assurance of success. The letter of Capt. E. W. Gould, endorsing tue rroject as a profitable one forthe stockhold ‘rs, is of great value. The plan adopted is the resuit of hisown and theexperience of otners, and gives thelargest benefits with the least expen diture of money—three tleets of barges to two towing boats—to be enlarged as the trade de- mands. When grain costs thirty-six cents by railto New York, it can be sent to New Orieans by river for seven cents—twenty-nine cents a hushelin favor of the river. And when by reil it is sent through to Liverpool, it costs us three cents more from New Orleans than from New York. Sothat the net difference is as ten to thirty-six cents—or twenty-six cents in fa- vor of the river onevery bushel. These figures may vary, butthey are the normal rates, or the rates charged when the roads are not at war. STEAMBOATS., * ea ee cinecetedemene LOWER MISSISSIPP1.

PICKWICK THEATER—Bells of Corneville. THEATRE COMIQUE—Variety Performance. WE are gratified to learn that the new potato crop in Ireland is flourishing. —— — a Tur House of Delegates did so well in the case of Mr. McGovern that it has con- cluded to try its hand on another contuma- cious witness. DENIS KEARNEY ought to have a big public reception on the San Francisco Sand Lots before his hair grows and while the smell of the prison still lingers in his gar- ments. Perhaps he will lecture. — — Ir is conceded that the anti-Grantites will have control of the Committee on Cre- dentials in the Chicago Convention. Titat meansah.o.t.and at least one more day of picking for the Chicago hotel-keepers. CONGRESS doesn’t take any stock in the proposed plan of keeping up a boating stage on the Mississippi River by means of reservoirs. A scheme to prevent the sun from shining and produce a general rain every ten days is what is needed. — Mr. J. MILTON TURNER claims to have sixty-one votes pletiged to a colored can- didate for ViceP resident, and he has gone to Chiedgo to superintend matters. If thoseSixty-one votes could be bunched solidly together and delivered in a chunk they might bring the value of an ordinary house and lot at the critical moment. —— a To-MORROW the ceremony of decorating the graves of the dead who fell in the war for the Union will be observed throughout the country. Itis a Seautiful custom, but year after year the occasion loses its inter- est. This shows that the. attempt to keep alive the memories of thé war in this way will cease entirely. The dead of all wars have been forgotten and ours must share the same fate. Don CAMERON loudly proclaims in Chi- cago that there will be no bolt in the Pennsylyania delegation. Heis doubtless correct. Those Pennsylvania fellows have a way of asserting their independence of the Cameron dynasty occasionally, but there is no instance on record yet where they have failed to drop down on their stomachs in the dust when Don or the ancient Simon cracked the whip. . — ——— -— REPRESENTATIVE ACKLEN has_ been whitewashed by the House Committee on Judiciary. It is conceded that he was guilty of legislative forgery in submitting a report from the Foreign Affairs Committee which had never been agreed to, but it has been decided to simply reprimand him for . 4indiscretion and imprudence.”? If indis- cretion and imprudence had been a punish- able crime, Acklen would probably have had a life sentence in the penitentiary fif- tecn years ago. -_ A WASHINGTON paper says that there was great laughter in the House the other day when the bluebird poet from Wyo- ming, Mr. Downey, offered a resolution to appropriate the undivided portion of the Geneva Award fund the erection of public buildings throughout the country. We fail to see why the laugh came in at this point. The gentlemen in Congress have publicly declared their intention to steal] this money from the parties to whom it was awarded, and there is no reason why it should not be used in, the construction of public buildings. We would suggest penitentiaries. : TEE great interest centering in the Chi- g4go Convention next week will be fully We will have special correspondents on the field and the latest news will be transmit- ted by special wires from the hall in which the convention is held. fthe convention editions will be printed as rapidly as the accumulation of news will warrant and newsdealers along the lines of the railways should increase their All after- noon trains leaving the city will be well orders for papers materially. supplied. SENATOR BLaINe’s visit to New York at this time, to consult with friends, is ac- cepted in third-term circles as prima facie evidence of his alliance with Jay Gould. It may De true that Jay and the plumed knight have entered into a partnership to run the Government, but what of that? Gould is a good Republican. He contributed $70,000 toward electing and stealing the pious Mr. Hayes into the Presidency, and the administration has certainly been no worse on that account. He is not the During the sitting proper sort of person to take an active part in making Presidents, we will admit, but he isas reputable as Logan, Robeson, Bel- knap, Dorsey, Kemble, the Camerons, and the other public plunderers and ringsters who have undertaken to use Grant as a “jimmy” in forcing open the doors of the public treasury. The Camerons have some of the apital of innocent railway share- holders secreted about their persons, and as between their dynasty and a season of Jay Gould, perhaps the country would prefer Jay. The Camerons have been ef- fectually tried. @Quaste: AT last the West Point military enquiry into the alleged outrage committed upon the colored cadet, Whittaker, has reached an end, and the country holds its breath for the verdict. All the evidence adduced goes to show that Whittaker cropped his own car. The Recorder, in summing up the case yesterday, brought out ina strik- ing manner the causes which might have actuata@@® the young man in the perpetra- tion of thisfolly. He had been rejected by his sweetheart and he feared to lose her respect and with it all hope of gaining her loxe by failure to graduate. By outraging himself he hoped to be sent to the hospital, where he would win her sympathy and be allowed another year inthe academy or, failing to pass,would go out into the world asamartyr. Itis quite probable that the young man will now be tried by court- martial for conduct unbecoming a colored cadet anda gentleman. It is consoling to find that there is a bit of love romance mixed up with this painful affair. No re- ally disreputable performance should be allowed to take place anywhere unless there is the poetic background of flashing eyes, red lips, golden tresses or mossy curls. —_———_— THE iron hail and the leaden rain are thistledown compared with the wrath of the able editors of the Moberly papers. They are lashing the seaof public opinion with their tails after the manner of har- pooned whales, because the Post-DIsPaTcH correspondent at the late State Convention told the truth about the inadequacy of the town to the occasion. Nobody has reflect- ed upon the lack of hospitality upon the part of the citizens of the ‘‘Magic City.” Everything was done to make the attend- ants at the convention comfortable that could have been expected; but no amount of magic could press 2,000 people into a town which only has capacity for enter- taining about one-half that number, No- body has ever succeeded in placing a half- gallon of beans ina quart cup. The mis- take was made when a few of Moberly’s enterprising citizens went before the State Committee and exalted their bright and erowing town beyond its meed, and the mistake should be emphasized so that it will not occur again. We counsel the Vvig- orous ecdliitors of Moberly tosprinkle their wrath with the cooling salt of discretion. A large majority of the men who experienced the discomforts of the general muster at Moberly are still living, and their memories are not likely to be obliterated by the charge that the Post-Disrarcu committed the most atrocious crime of the centur'y in telling the unvarnished truth.

PROTECIING THE PRESBYTERIANS. The Police Called Into Keep Order in the Pittsburg Synod. PITTSBURG, PA., May 29.—To-day for the first time the Reformed Presbyterian Synod was placed under the protection of the police. The good people of Oak Alley have preserved order, but the last two days outsiders have been disturbing meetings and acting in such a manner that the Moderator was obliged to callou the Mayor for protection during the discussion of the paper of the Northern Pres- bytery as to trial. Frequent interruptions were made. The Moderator called them to order, but boisterous manifestations con- tinued, and Dr. McLeod was authorized to bring in the Chief of Police. On the latter’s arrival the Moderator said an explanhtion was dueto the Synod. He regretted exceedingly to have been reguired to pursue such a course. While the Synod had entire confidence in the good men of the church, as was evident from the proceedings, to-day drunken and eirre- sponsible persons had appeared in the church, The disoruer was increasing, and he now asked that the Chief of Police take charge of the synod and protect it until final adjournment.

ON 'THE WAK-PATH., The Infuriated Utes Prowling Through North Park. - — _ The Military Moving for the Protection of Miners and Prospectors. =. --~ LARAMIE CiTy, May 29.—Fred. B. King, the courier who arrived Thursday with the intel- ligence that the Utes were in North Park started back yesterday. Getting to Cummins City, thirty miles southwest, be met three men just from. the park with letters and dispatches. Taking tresh horses, he returned, reaching here at 100’clock atnight. Next day, after Burlingame was driven into Walden’s by the Indians, Walden and O’Brien started out with Burlingame to _ verify his _ story. Near Illinois Creek they saw 400 or 500Jponies and a large band of Indians, thought to be Utes. The Indians were separat- ing their best ponies from the herd, as though preparing for some expedition. The three men then returned, and the entire party of men, women and chil- dren at Walden’s camp, numbering about thirty-five, PACKED UP AND RETREATED to Pinkham’s,in the northendof the park, where they are now fortified. The mail carri- er from this city to Tynerin North Park re- ports seeing several bands of Indians at a distance on his last tripin. Nothing has been seen or heard of Carr or Dow, and they have undoubtedly been killed. King brought a dispatch from Walden and others to Gover- nor Pitkin, CALLING FOR HELP. Flint, Fort Sanders, telegraphed to Fort Steel for pack-horses to be sent by special train, and two companies will be sent to the rescue to-morrow. The party now at Pinkhbam’sis poorly armed and gieat fears are entertained fer their safeto. There are about 700 miners and prospectors in North Park, and the Indians will probably kill a great many before they can get together in sufficient numbers to oppose them. THE NORTH PARK is some distance from the reservation, and the only way into it from the north is via Laramie City. No one feared the Indians, and consequently those who have gone in have but few arms. Gen. Pope telegraphs he willsend alarge number of troops in as soon as possible to protect those who leave from here. Gen. Kearney on the War-Path. SAN FRANCISCO, May 29.—Last night the workingmen headed by a brass band escorted Kearney from his home to the sand lots, where a very large crowd gathered.

THE GRISWOLD INSURANCE CASE, It is Finally Settled Without Going to the Jury. The insurance case of Griswold against the American Insurance Company came to an end this morning in Judge Boyle’s room without going to the jury by the filing of a stipulation signed by both parties in which it was agreed that the Insurance company should paythe faceofthe policy. The case presented some interesting points. The plain- tiff, W. D. Griswold, owned a piece of land on which there was a good frame-house, which he insured in the American Centra) for $4,000. He had occasion to move the house about 150 feet on account of selling that particular part ot the land Where the ouse stood. It took two or three days to accomplish the re- moval,and on Sunday morning while the build- ing was still on the rollers it took fire and burned down. The insurance company re- tused to pay the lus@ because the house was vacated and had been removed to another locality. The plain- tiff’s attorney, Mr. W. B. Thompsoa, cited a decision of the Supreme Court which says that whenthe removal of a house does not increasethe risk, the company remains liable. This morning after all the testimony wasinthe stipulation above referred to was agreed to, the plaintiff withdrawing his claim tor interest, which ameunted to avout $1,700, — agreeing to take $4,000, the face ot the policy.

The first new wheat on the market was re- ceived to-day, inthe shape ot acar load from Fort Worth,Texas,'! shipped by Wilson & Mor- rison to Adler, Goldman & Co. The wheat was in excellent condition and of fine appearance, grading full No. 3 red, and was acknowledged to be the best first new wheat ever received here. As usual with ‘‘first receipts,’’ the car was put up at public anction to-day, Dan. Bartlett officiating, ana after sharp com- petition between milling buyers was knocked down to E. O. Stanard & Co. at the handsome price of $162 per bushel. Messrs. Stanard & Co. will manufacture this wheat into their celebrated brand ‘‘Eagle Steam,’’ which has a high reputation and large sale in Texas, as well as other portions of the coun- try, and Texans will soon bave an opportunity ot eating some of their own State wheat, man- ufactured into the finest fiour. Besides the high figure obtained, the shipper will receive a premium purse of $125 raised by our mer- chants to be presented to the shipper of the first new wheat. “es MORNING BOARD—FUTURES.

Yesterday afternoon Reed en- tered the oflice of W. A. Crandall, the assignee, where Mr. E. S. Card was engaged in looking over some accounts, and without a word of warning fired a pistol-shot at Card. The ball penetrated Card’s clothing, but was turned from its course by some papers in his pocket. Reed was arrested. He declared that be intended to kill Card, who, he said, had robbed him ofallthe money he had. Reed was most deliberate in his preparations for the shooting. He borrowed the pistol from his nephew and waited outside the office of the assignee until he saw Cardenterit. He then followed Card up stairs into the ollice. Reed was seen to cock the pistol at the foot of the stairs. Reed is evidently out of his head, having brooded over his losses until he be- came a mogomaniac onthesubject. He was to-day taken to Morrisville, where the grand jury of Madison county is in session. John Logan’s Better Half. |} Washington Cor. Chicago Tribune. | Mrs. Gen.

NU" —_— THE SPORTING WORLD. - = —_— | Further Preparations at the Jock- ey Club Grounds. - — —— ‘The Pedestrian Match—Boating—Base Ball—Miscellaneous Notes. There were no new arrivals of note at the Jockey Club track to-day, and only stragglers’ are expected during the next five or six days, such of the horses.as were engaged at Louis- ville and are not now here having gone to {inciunati. The track is rolled and harrowed daily, and is in excellent condition for prac- tice. Swigert, Harvey Durham, George Rice and other well known turfmen are in the city, superintending the care of their horses. POSTPONED. Owing to the heavy rains and bad condition of the Fair Grounds track, the races announc- ed for this afternoon have been postponed. oe Pedestrianism ‘ _ Word has b2en received from Mr. Engel- hardt, manager of Haverly’s pedestrian tour- nament, that the cause of postponement was unavoidable. The delay in Cincinnati, dam- agetocanvass through the storm, and the shortness between dates, made an unavoid- able loss of time, and up tothe last moment Mr. Engiebardt endeavored to carry out his programme. He saysthat the obstacles to overcome were morethan any regiment of humans could contend with, and ina day or two he will announce the date that the match will commence here. It is certain that the match will take place, and those anxious to enter bay rest assured of that fact. Miscellaneous Notes. The beat clubs practice nearly every even- irg. The champion crews are workiog hard. ‘The Shoe-wae-cae-mettes and the Burling- tons stopped here on their way tothe New Orleans regatta, which begins on the 2d prox. Manager Cuthbert has received a letter from the Robert k. Lee Club, of New Orleans, an- nouncing their intention of making a north- ern tour next month. Thev will stop at St. Louis and play the Red Stockings. The Ned Stocking and Brown Stocking base ball clubs meet to-morrow at the Compton Avenue Park,to cross bats in the initial of a series of five games, to be played alter- nately at the Compton avenue and Grand avenue parks. Some good billiard playing has been done atthe Monarch (Baldwin’s) and Mussey’s billiard halls during the week. At the latter Sam Baldwin made one run of 104 and anoth- er of 75 iu-a game with John Cox, and Magnus cdiscounted Jesse Stevens at the three-cushion came. The Meund City Amateur Rowing Associa- tion isto meet this evening at Justice Von ‘Gerichten’s, No. 710South Fourth street, for the purpose of completing arrangements for the St.John cup race, to occur on the 6th inst., and to talk about the regatta to be held next autumn. ; Because of their inability to obtain a steam- boat, the Mississippis and the Westerns liave resolved to picnic at Bodemann’s Grove on the 20th prox. Several novel features are to be introduced in the programme, and mu- sical selections will probably be rendered by the clubs’ best vocalists. Last Saturday the Post-DISPATCH said | that tbe Reds and Browns would meet on the ‘diamond to-morrow, and published a list of the players. During the week a slight change has been made, Overbeck being assigned to the right tiecld instead of Kraymeyer. The Reds have not yet completed arrangements with the Deaf Mutes, but probably will some time next week. Some forty members of the various shoot- ing clubs in this city will leave for Macon on Monday totake part in the annual convention and tournament to take place there on the Ist, 2d, dd and 4th*prox. Capt. W. W.Judy has secured all the birds, and the other arrange- ments have been completed. Considerable preparation has been undergone by meny of the delegates, who have been shoot- ing every afternoon during the week. Tne interesting event of to-day is the shoot ef Isaac Kuntz and Phil. Weber, onthe Olive street road, for 25a side. Thebirds are to be given twenty-six yards’ rise. BEEFING A SNORER, How an African Citizen Was Soothed by Mr. Calhoon’s Serenade. A little the queerest incident which the Dispensary has brought to light for the last six weeks occurred atthe weird and weary hour ef 2:30 last night. Mike Calhoon isa gentleman of some 40 years” of age with a rather vacant ex: pression aml much length of upperlip. He has been traveling through the country on foot and Bas acquired amuch more intimate knowledge of the great American highways of travel than many who were born and brought up in the land. Mr. Calhoon has adopted a style of dress eminently calculated for the kind of travel which he has been doing, and, in pur- suance of his original touring ideas, he usual- ly sleeps and boards with the poor and the lowly. Last night Mr. Calhoon, instead ef putting up at the Lindell or any other of the vreat caravanserais whose meretricious tinsel and glitter attract the vulgar and unthinking crowd sought a couch in the untenanted skid piles on the levee. It might be a queer freak, but te a man with a mind Jike his an eccen- tricity is afenne bouche. Other forms moved up and down the long, roughly-paved water front, and the sibilant ro of the mighty river wove itself into a lullaby which soon soothed everything to rest. Mike was wakeful for atime, but not for long, and with one long look at the skies above and at the dim river at his feet, he wrapped his pelisse tightly around him, moved his head out ofaknot hole onthe skid that was his pillow apd sank to sleep. Not ten feet away crouched a dismal shape tbat in the morning would uncoil itself intoa nigger, who was also asleep, sleeping heavily and dreamlessly after a hard day’s work; but this sleep was destined not to be of Jovg duration. Calhoon soon began making an Aolean harp of his nose, and breathing melody like the statue of Memnon. lie snored a peculiar snore, which had poin‘s different about it from o her snores; he began in atremdo and eoued with a bassoon, and the dusky form at the other endof the pile soon ®ecame animated. ‘The fiery eyes of the disturbed sleeper glared at the snorer and with the unuttered remark, ‘‘J’mef a man «ould sleep in a forty-acre lot with arip snerter like bh——*’ turned around and wentte sleep again. The snoring, however, took a new shape, and the other man got up and glaréd at himagain. ‘*Blessed ef he ain’t makin’? a steam calliope of hisself this time, sbuah.’? Still. the patient and jong-suffering son of Ham tried once more to sleep, but the shriil, acrid and pene- traung snore cut into him aod through him, antl be would have been unable to swear whether he had toothache or mumps. ‘Dod rot me-if I’m goin’ to ut up with this thing any longer,’’ said he at 2:30 a. m. **Thar’s snorin’ and snorin’, but when a ’nirishman goes to makin’ a cross ’etweena fog horn anda clap ©’ thunder of hisself he’s got to take the con- sequence.’? And beforé the bystander, or by- sleeper rather, who overheard the remarks, could interfere, he had whipped out arazorand slashed Mr. Calhboon over the forehead and across the nose. The other man made a noise at this point and the darkey left suddeniy. Calboon was brought to the Dispensary jvy Offi- ecr Lake. His mind seeme& to be wandering until he was told the Lystander’s . Price, $1 per package or six packages for $5. story, when his face cleared up and he said: “Ob, that’s it, isit? Well, the poor divvle, I guess I did aggeravate him some—that’s why me wife got a divoorce.” : W.W. Moors, late of Kent & Miller’s, will be pleased to see his numerous friends at the retail clothing establishment of F. W. Hum- phrey & Co,, with which well-known and pop- ular house he has recently connected himself. THE FISH-HATCHERY. Maj. Weigel and Col. Flad Free Their —— About the Proposed Re- . moval. The resolution of the Fish Commission to relinquish the temporary hatchery at Forest Park has caused con- siderable surprise and comment at the City Hall. It was thought there that after the concessions the city had made, and after the excellent location found for the hatchery, the whole ‘ matter was dispos- ed of, and no one heard the news with more surprise than Maj. Weigel, the Park Commissioner. ‘*‘Why,” said that gentleman to a PostT-DISPATCH reporter, ‘*] can’t understand the action of the commission atall. We were all out there chiv a few days ago I brought out an en- gineer to show them just what might be done, and when they found that the water could be raised three feet they were delighted. At least Reed and Steedman were. Gov. Woodson didn’t seem to like theidea. Reed and Steedman both expressed themselves as thorougbly satistied, aud here they turaed right around and revorted as you saw.’”? “Why do you suppose they did it?’’ ‘“Well, Vm sure [ can’t explain it at all. Steadman was going to resign, and I suppose he dit not care much, and Woodson was opposed to the Forest Park hatchery all the time.” “‘Isthere really any reason for moving?’ ‘*No, there is not. Raising the water three feetis in reality all that is at all necessary. You see the hatching ponds can easily be sunk below that level. and _ the heigat is, the opinion of competent engineers, sullicient. Of course if they move the hatchery it will only take so much unpaid work off of my shoulders, so thatI have no earthly personal reason for caring, but I do think when the city goes out of her way to let them have the hatchery there, it ought not to be taken away for caprice. They can’t establish it at St. Joseph.’ ‘*Where would be the best place?” ‘*Well, the Cold Springs up about the little Nian gua, in Camden county, would probably be best, but you see thereisno place where they can be watched and guarded as they are here, and have so many conveniences with absolutely no expense to the commission.’’ Col. Flad was also seen by the reporter, and he reiterated to a great extent the sentiments of Major Weigel. Hetnought the three feet rise in the spring water quite enough for all purposes, and does not believe in the advisability of moving the hatehery. Tne question as to what willbe doneis stillan open one, but there isno doubt about the feeling at the City Hall. Lawn Tennis and Archery. Large stock and great variety constantly on hand. Parts sold separately at Simmons Hardware Company. The National Guard. The National Guard, Colonel George O. Carpenter commanding, assembled _ at Armory Hall at 4 o’clock to-day in full dress uniform. Companies A, B,C, D, E andG were represented and First Section Battery A attended in fatigue uniform. The parade was intended as a celebration of the triuroph won at Nashviile. The line of march was down Fourthto Wal- nut, westto Fifth, north to Washington ave- nve, west to Twelfth, south to Lucas Market square, where dress parade takes place; back to Washington avenue, wstto EKighteenth, south to Lucas place, eAst to Fourteenth, south to Pine, east to Tenth, nerth to Olive, east to Sixth, north to Washington avenue, east to the Armory, Where the parade is’to be dismissed. SMALL expenses require small profits.. Exam- ine the assortment of summer underwear at A. MCELRATH’s, Hanging a Beef. As a stock train on the Ohio and Mississippi Road was coming into East St. Louis yester- day evening, and while crossing the bridge over Cahokia Creek, one of the cars in the middie of the train’ broke, _ killing three beeves and injuring several. One of the head of cattle seemed in imminent danger of falling into the creek, a distance 6f several feet, which would have resulted in its loss, and to prevent this a stout rope was tied about the neck and the men ecmmenced clearing away the Wreck, when the beef lost its footing and was suspended by the neck over the bridge, where it hung for some time.

Board $i1a Week, and Condensed Milk the Temperance Beverage of the Camp—The Two Ccrpses in the Graveyard. _ The following interesting letter was receiv- ed from a young St. Louis gentleman now in the Gunnison country, and as it containsa great deal ofinformation about the new El- dorado it is given: DEAR FATHER:—Sunday here is the dullest sort of a time, and nearly every one sleeps it away. Nothing to read but newspapers, old and worth ten cents apiece. The first copy of the West Gunnison Review sold yesterday for $100. There are two rival towns here, Gunni- son proper and the railroad town of West Gunnison. Both towns are laid off on paper and sales are made every hour of the day. Town lots are 25x125 feet and on Main street sell at an average of $500. A one-story pine store room can not be contracted for at less than $1,000, and the builders have allthey can do for some time. Carpenters T« get #2 5U per day, and talk of striking for $1. Laborers verv scarce, aS every Man, woman and child is a born speculator. Board is rea- sonable; we pay $11 per week. The proprictors of the Gunnison House are (Quincy men, Mazor, Jamieson & Co. Our room is unplastered and has no door, but we pay no attention to such little inconven- iences since our experience at Poncho Pass, and the ranches en route to this place. By the way, our record as pedestrians is unequal- ed—seventy-three miles,the distance between Pieasant Valley and Saguache, in three days. Pretty good for tenderfeet. Every one on the road took us _ for residents, and one thing that impressed us particularly was the fact that no one seemed to have any information about distances or anything else. The miles look short, but are very long to walk. As one old stager remarked, ‘‘They measured the miles with a ’coon skin and threw in the tail every time.’’ As you will see by the paper sent you Jack Haverly andthe syndicate have invested a large amount of money inthis country. Yes- terday-I helped invoice the stock of J. I. Kel- ley.

Two years ago Kelley was herding cattle for the Government, and in spite ofthe fact that he has kept drunk ever since he has clear- edthis amount. His former partner kept sober, and is said to have made $40,000 during the last year. This person is a straight man, and as he sold out his store yesterday toa Denver party, he could have no motive for ‘ tellang me an untruth about his past busi- ness; he told me that his profits out of the store for the past year were $10,000. The profits are simply enormous. On the stock of say $7,000 that I worked on, the profits ran from 50 to 125 per cent. ¥ * * * * * .

E. 8. THE INDUSTRIAL RECORD. The Past Week’s Work in the Various Local Trades. Business in all pranches of industry during the week just closed has compared favorably with any week during the season. None need complain for the want of work, for there is sufticient for allin the difterent trades of St. Louis. Especially bave the laboring classes been favored, and there can be seen but few idle men on the streets. In some work, principaily among laboring men, prices are low, but average up to that given in other large citicsand in some cgses exceeding it con- siderably. Prices for all work are fully sus- tained and there is no prospect for any de- cline until winter. THE IRON INTEREST. The interest manifested in this line of trade is at this time considerable, as the foundry- mcn are sanguine that prices have got to the bottom, and others in the iron business confi- deutly believe that quotations will even go lower; £0 that, between both factions, there appears to be considerable uneasiness. Not- withstanding thie, ali of the rolling mills are in full blast, with a full force of helpers. Lust Monday evening was recular pay day at the Laclede Rolling Mills, and fully $20,000 was paid out. The jourpeymen sheet-iron workers met last night at Union Hall to adopt a regular scale of prices to be paid apprentices after they finizh learning the trade.

A Brother and Sist - ty-Nine Years’ peer al — A few days ago Mr. Edmond Reynard ar- tived from Topeka, Kansas, ona visit to his sister, Mrs. H. A. Smart, of East St. Louis, } Whom he had not-seen for twenty-nine years and whose existence was unknown to him un- til within the past few months. Mr. Reynard and Mrs.Smart are two of a family of five children separated nearly thirty years ago. ‘The children grew up each ignorant of the ‘fate of the others until a short time past. The ‘story of the separation and Ainding of one another is well sworth relation. About _—itthe year geo Paul Voisin, an immigrant from France, ettledin Potosi, Grant county, Wisconsin, with his wife and five children, three girls dtwo boys. His wife dying soon after, the family was scattered. He brought the eldest, $ boy of eight years, to this city, and left her with Mr. Wm. Nix, in Madison county, Ill., not far from Edwardsville, witn whom she Hived till grown to woman’s estate. On leay- ing bis daughter he said he was going to Leavenworth, and from that time he bas not been heard of. The _ sec- gnd child, Clara, was taken by J. B. Racine, of Racine, Wis., who, on the death of bis wife, placed Clara in an orphan asylum at Milwaukee, Wis., from which she went to the convent of Notre Dame, at Prairie du Chien, and is now knownas Sister M. Luke. The third child, Maria R. Guthrie, was taken by a Methodist clergyman by the name of Jones. She is now living at Montfort, Grant county, Wis., at which piace she married Mr. Guthrie. Thefourth child, the present Mr. Edmond Reynard, was adopted by John P. Reynard, of Benton, Grant county, Wisconsin, who, after a few vearr, moved to Milwaukee, where he resided till his death. Mr. Edmond Reynard, after serving as a soldier during the war ina Wisconsin regiment, went railroading, and for several years has been running an engine from Topeka, Kas. The youngest, a brother, was taken by some official of Potosi, Wis., but bis whereabouts is not known at present. His brother and sisters are anxious to hear from him or from any one that can give any information in regard to him. For twenty years of this time Mr. Reynard and his sister Clara were the only two that had apy trace of one another. About nine years ago they found Mrs. Gutorie, the third one of the family, and now the discovery of the fourth one brings the hope that all may yet be found. The manner in which the present trace was found may be stated briefly as follows: Last February Mr. J. M. Smart, in looking over some copies of the Odd Fel- low’s Companion, saw the name of Dr. John Hi. Vivian, a prominent member of the Odd Fellows at Mineral Pomt, Wis., and con- cluded to apply to himinregard to _ finding the long lost relatives of his wife. His letter of inquiry was fofwarded by Dr. Vivian to Peter Van Vech- ten, Jr., Sheriff of Milwauke county and PastGrand Master of the Grand I.odge of I. O. of O. F. of Wisconsin. He caused the letter to pe published in the Milwaukee Even- ing News. This finding its way to Mr. Rey- nard, at Topeka, gave him the clew to her whereabouts. THE SECRET ORDER RECORD.

New York Evening Post. |] Oberammergau, as its name suggests, is the uppermost of two small villages on the Am- mer River and among the less rugged districts that deecend fromthe Tyrolean Alps to the plains of Munich and Augsburg. The entire surrounding country is said to be strongly Roman Catholic; the inhabitants of this val- ley are industrious and quiet, and devoted by taste and tradition to carving wooden images and crucifixes. With equal fidelity, for more than two centuries, they have performed a vow inherited from their forefathem. En- closed within their valley by the surrounding mountains the Ammergauers enjoyed immu- nity for a time from a fearful pestilence that in 1633 spread through ali the surrounding districts. But when a certain individual, evading the quarantine, came into the valley to celebrate a family festival with his relatives, te brought the plague with him, and, asthe acceunt says, ‘*was in two daysa corpse,’’ while the attainted villagers were soon sorely afflicted. With their families fall- ing about them,the citizens gathered together and they then made a vow that if God would intermit the scourgethey would solemnly show their thanks bv a holy representation, every ten years thereafter, ofthe Passion, Burial and Resurrection of the Savior, and from that moment, ‘‘though many were cov- ered with marks of the plague, not any more died.”” Tothe devout Roman Uatholic these words contain all the significance of a sancti fied tradition, and throughout the history of the play itis maixed with hardships of pil- grimages from distant lands. But since it was first represented the play has undergone many changes consequent upon the obstacles which were placed in its way. In 1780 there wasastong movement made in Bavariaand the Tyrol against miracle plays, mysteries and eacred representations of every kind. In this crusade the Arch- bishop of Salzburg, whose authority at that time extended throughout the German States, headed the abolition cause with the ar- gument that a mixture of sacred and piofane and the exposition of sacred things to ridi- cule discreaited the church, while the intem- perance consequent upon so large asemblies and the burlesques committed by inexperienc- ed actors discredited the people. Earnest ap- play at Ammergau, and only the religious nature of the vow that had been made en- abled this one representation to remain while the others were abolished. Later; in 1810, the monastery of Ettal was suppressed; the chief support of the Passion Piay was lost, and its existence endangered, not only because the monastery had furnished the requisite ability for the undertaking, but because a new at- tempt was made by ecclesiastical authorities to envihilate the play. In return for the favor which Max Joseph, the Bavarian Prince. there showed, by grant- ing a royal patent, the play was entirely reno- vated and shornof its most offensive types, and allowed toremaino. ‘This was the joint work of one Dr. Ottman Weiss, an Ettal Bene- dictine, and his ng Daisenberg, and was finished only in 1840. The devil had become the most troublesome character. He was habitually dressed in red and glided about among the players, con- straining this ene or deluding that. In the days of Breughel or Fra Beato such personifications may have bad some serious meaning, but it is easy to discern how, with little modification, this devil could have become the Harlequin of a pantomime. Judas likewise in the old style, after he had gone and hung himself, would let slip from beneath his cloak a blackbird, whose flight was emblematic of the flight of his black soul; or else he was hanged in efligy, whereon the people gave expression totheir feelings by showering stones at the dummy and revil- ing him by offensive speeches. In view of the objections brought against the play. propriety demanded that it should assume all the dignity that surrounds the great tragedy itself. Rich choral music was composed for it by Dedler, the village schoo]master and organist, and an eminent ecclesiastic, Alliani, well-known among his countrymen as a translator into German of the Roman Bible, wrote the pro- logue. In the new version everything, except the well-known miracle of the napkin, upon which tradition says that Christ left imprinted the features of his face, is founded upon strict Bible bistory; and that criticism might further be disarmed, the principal parts are assigned by vote of the community to those whose lives are most blameless and worthy the imperson- ations they are to take. PERILS OF THE SEA. me From. | From the Philadelphia Bulletin. | Ice and icebergs appeared on the banks of Newfoundland earlier this season than usual. They are most commoniv met in the early part of summer, after the cessation of north- erly gales, which drive them from their loca- tion in the latter part of March and April. The icebergs come chiefly from Greenland, being formed by rivulets, etc. The vast ice fields seen upon the banks are brought there by the vast currents of the sea and wind. They come mostiy from the coast of Labrador, and are parts of the fields that are formed during the long winter in the great bays and inlets of the Labrador coast. Icebergs are continually changing their line of floating, owing in part to the breaking off of pieces of the upper mass and the melting oe ofthe submerged por- tion. Their motion is always slow, and acci- dents can rarely happen from them to prudent mariners. At this season of the year they are brought down by the northern winds. The float along the banks of Newfoundland, an finally, striking the warmer waters of the gulf stream, soon disappear. The movement ofa tield of ice is accompanied by much crashing, and is often obscured by a dense fog, throug which rise the topsof the bergs, On two occasions during the Arctic cruise of the Juniata, in the Polaris search expedition, that vessel barely escaped destruction by ice- bergs. Oneof these was in the middle of July, 1873. During a dense fog at midday, off Cape Farewell, Greenland, an immense was suddenly seen to loom ~ out of the fog not more thana ship’s iength directly ahead. Fortunately the vessel was runniog atslow speed, and her course was quickly chahged end she cleared the ice mountain by about 100 feet. On another occasion, off Fiskernaes, in a dense fog, anotherfvery large berg was seen a little on the port bow, anda ledge of rocks on the starboard bow not more than 500 feet distant. The engines were stopped and re- versed, and the vessel only escaped destruc- tion by a few feet. Where the — s and Ice Fields The Cold Spring Midget’s Death. !Newburgh (N. Y.) Cor. New York Sun.)

The 6:20 evening train, No. 39, was over an hour late that night. Cause enough, Heaven knows. For twelve hours the storm had raged, avd now, instead of showing any signs of breaking, the rain came down in torrent; from the inky sky, and the thunder rolled ominously overhead. Abid storm to drive an engine through, as anybody would have known, and the wonder is that No. 09 was not three hours late instead of one. Old Luke Granger, the trustiest, nerviest engineer on the road, rounded the curve just below Red Ravine Station at twenty-six minutes past seven. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the headlight cut a hole inthe darkness. The station. bridge might have given way in a storm like that, and I was beginning to get nervous over this thought. Somehow everything made me nervous that night. It was just the kind of weather waen things look all out of gear, any way. Then, I suppose, the knowledge of that money pack- age being due and its failing to come onthe 11:30, as it should have done, had its effect on me. I didn’t relish the idea of keeping $13,- 000 in cash until the next day. Eldridge and Ricketson bad been down themselves to meet - the morning train, and if the package had come ] could have turned it over to them at once, and that wouid bave been the end of the matter. But it didn’t come. That’s a Way things have in this world when you most want ‘em. There wasn’t a soul at the station that mght except myself, and there were only two pas- sengers who got off thetrain. I speak of 2em that way, not meaning to-be cisrespect- ful, or make light of solemn things; only 1t’s habit, I suppose; for most people would sav there was only one passenger that got off at Red Ravine,seeing that the secona of ’em was earried out of the express car in a wooden box. Usually when a body was coming on, I got word beforehand, but this one took me quite by surprise and added not a little to the nervousness I already felt. ‘*Whoisit?’? I asked, asthe box was Ccar- ried into the station. The passenger who got off the train, and who was astranger to me, answered my in- uiry. ‘‘The body is that of mv sister-in-law,” eald he. ‘*She was the niece of Thomas Eidrige—doubtless _ know him. Her death Was verysudden. Sheis to be buried in Mr. Eldridge’s lot here.’’ ‘¢Then I suppose the body is to be left in my cbarge until to-morrow,”’’ said I. ‘*Yes,’’ answered the stranger. ‘‘Do you suppose that I can get to Mr. Eldridge’s my- self to-night?’ ‘*Well,’’? Lreplied, *‘it’s a good four miles, and in such & storm as this —’’ ‘*7’)] wait until to-morrow,” interrupted the stranger. ‘*There is some sort of a hdtel here, isn’t there.”’ “Yes,agoodone. You'll have to foot it, though:but it’s only a matter of a quarcer ofa mile, and you can’t miss your way, for the road up the hill leads straight to the house.’’ Here I made my way out to the platform — and made ny way to the express car, where the money package, which all along I had secretly hoped wouldn’t come, was d?2- livered tome by the messenger. As he gave ittomehe said: ‘*You’ll want to keep a sharp eye on that, Billy. There’s enough in Gt to make one of your Red Raviners put a bullet through your head, and never give you a chance to object.” ‘‘Villook out forthe Red Raviners, and the packages, too,’’? said I, confidently enough. Butif the truth had been told, I didn’t like the suggestion which the messen- ger had made. The train moved off quickly, and I swung my lantern, as was my babit, by way of bid- ding good night to Luke Granger. Then I went intothe station-house with the little package clutched tightly under my rubber coat, expecting to find the man there who had come onwiththe body. But he had gone, being anxious, no doubt, to get to the hotel as quickly as possible. No. 69 was the last train which stopped at Red Ravine until 6:10 the next morning. Somy work for the night was done, and I had only to lock up the doors, see that things were all right about the lace, and sit downto my newspaper in the ittle room which served as my sleeping quar- ters. Twenty years had passed since I first found » myself installed at Red Ravineas telegraph ‘ of Eldriage & Llicketson. . out of gear,as I have ramp pi % ey “% Ms r than usual it _.. diet I bad hoped for. Pare © ¥ a. : : egn tg 3 " Mv * Soe S . ; operator in therailway station. Being con- tent with the humdrum sort of life, and faich- fultomy duties, I had come by degrees to attend to all the work which the place re- quired. That is, I was the ticket agent, bag- gage master, and keeper of the statioa, be- sides acting for the express company and con- tinuing my charge of the telegraph key. These combined labors made it pretty close work for me, but they all yielded a pretty comfortable income, and asI was troubled with no unsatisfied ambitions, I counted my- self well fixed. AslI have intimated,I slept in the station, partly tokeep guardon the company’s property, and partly from choice; for, being a bachelor and without kin, I had nothing to attract me elsewhere. My duties had grown a part of second nature, and I had lived in the little town so long that the younger generation had come tospeak of meas “Vid illy.”? That was, I suppose, because my a was getting gray and my joints a little still. The Red Ravine Station was a wooden build- - ing, about forty feet long and twenty wide. It was divided into two compartments, the larger one being for freight and baggage and the smaller one for passengers. y own lit- tle room was only apiece partitioned off from the freight quarter and ten feet square, and connected by a door with a box of an oftice in the passengers’ room, which served both for seiling tickets and holding the telegraph key. In this latter apartment, also, was placed the old-fashioned iron eafe, in which I locked up my valuable express packages when any hap- pened to come to Red Ravine. The village, I ought to explain, had grown up entirely through the influence of the great iron works Chere were rich beds of ore a few miles to the north, and these as well as the foundry; which employed 400 or 500 hands, were controiled by the firm 1 bave mentioned. There had been some trouble at the works recently—a strike or something growing out of delay in paying the mentheir wages. This is howit happened that the $13,000 money package came into my keeping for a night. Weill, when I bad made all snug about the station, and got’ off mv wet clothing, I sat down comfortably with pipe and newspaper to enjoy my customary reading. The storm outside continued to rage more and more fiercely, but within things were cosy as could be. 1 had ablazing fire in the stove, a cheer- ful light. an easy chair, plenty of good tobac- co—the only luxury in which | was really extravagant—a fresh newspaper and a bottle of good Holland gin, wherewith to make my reguiar nocturnal toddy. Certainly these were pleasant surrontndings for an old fellew like me, and as a rule they yielded as much eolid comfort as a man has aright to expect in this world. Butthat nicht things seemed all e didn’tsoothe was its wont; try as I might I couldn’t terested inthe newspaper; and an un- read—a that about ind, Sean't bad*ootrod 1 up s toddy Sonsiderably . > a 3 x ee. eb ey, a LA -” 7 £ ss Ky * t . re or : : “ —" ‘ - tae Se - a z : - : ore 4 a ts ed : y tS . ai ; i ‘ ; - 4 a . * « 4 * 4 FP pkey s * pee pS. oe sd ay ahh 7 MN BS bcp -siprie ead . _ * a . , dy . ae Be oe ' ‘ . = re" #2 “9 ye ee Fo aad * 3 4 J be a5 & - 3 § ‘¥, ‘ is » J ¥ aS ms het eh ‘ " 7 ‘ eas tot i Le nee ed & oe 5 .

I had locked up the package inthe safe and putthe key—there was no combination lock—in my pocket. But I had not the largest faith in the security of the old safe. It had occurred to meo ten that a person could open it even if he wasn’t a skillful cracksman. It was my custom to leaye my door open between my little room and the ticket office, so that if Red Ravine was called on the telegraph key I could hear it. The instrument had been clicking away atagreatrate for the past hour; but as it was none of my business I paid no attention to what was going on over the wires. I judged now from the nearness of the light- ing and the jerky sounds of the instruments ‘that the storm was playing the mischief with the messages. I passed into the ticket oflice, where a light was left burning, and stood for some time thinking whether the money pack- age would be less exposed inthe safe than it would be under the mattress of my bed; and I finally concluded that the latter pl ze would be hardest for any possible thief to1.ach. So I took out the heavy brown envelope and stowed it away under the mattress. Then I. took a second glass of toddy, which was usu- ally against my rule, but which I thought the circumstances warranted. Once more I satdown by my newspaper and pipe, but with no better success than be- fore. The storm now seemed to have c2nter- edrigbt over the little station. Peal after peal of thunder rent the air, and the light- ning played about thesky like phosphorus on an inky background. If you have ever chanc- edtobeina telegraph office during a thun- der storm, you may have seen theelectricity dash doWnthe wires in a way to make timid people nervous. Even veteran operutors like myself wouldn’t want to undertake to re- ceive that sortof message. I was tempted to close the key, but the meaningless ticking had a sort of fascination for me in the mood I then was. It was like the incoherent mutterings of a maniac, where now and_ then, at long intervals only, could one distinguish a word or sentence. Maybe the extra allow- ance of toddy had made me more imaginative than usual, and given a weird coloring to my thoughts; for. listening to the rapid click- click, I remember of fancving that some spirit hand had got hold of the key, and was pour- ing out a wail of woe over the wires. I was too restless to sit still and too nervous togoto bed. Besides, evenifI hadn’t been so upset in my mind, itis doubtful whether I could have slept through such a storm as that. To occupy myself about something, I re- lighted my lantern, went into the freight- room, examined aguin the bolts of the doors and the fastenings of the windows and return- ed to my room more worried and upset than ever. Just as I was entering my own nest the light of the lantern fell squarely on the wooden box. Oddlv enough, until that moment I had forgotten all about the dead voung woman. Thinking so steadily of the $13,000 had, I sup- pore, driven tne box out of my mind. But I can’t say it was any comfort to have it brought back now; for a corpse is never the most cheerful of company, and, feeling as I did then, I would a great deal rather have no com- pany at all. It must have been the imp of the perverse, I suppose, that impelled me, after the box had been brought back to my mind, to leave the door open so that I could sit and stare at it with morbid curiosity. As I have already said, my sleeping apartment was partitioned off from the freight room and was connected with the latter by adoor. The pody had been placed in such a position that when this door was open the head of the box was in sight. Two or three times I got up to shut the door, but some strange fatality drove me back to my chair and caused me to keep in view the box with its sad freight. Ail this time tl storm raged, the thunder discharged its mighty batteries,the lightning flashed, and the mad ravings of the telegraph continued I caught my hand trembling as [ tried to red fillmy pipe. Nervousness, no doubt; but possibly an observer might haye thought Old Billy was frightened. I bad just risen towind the little clock on the shelf, when suddenly out of she hither- to meaningless ticking of the instrument mone 4 and distinctly came to my ears these. £SOunds* — —— in spoken words meant, ‘*Watch the 20x.? I started as ifa charge of electricity had shot through my frame. Icould fairly feel my face grow white. I stood motionless, clutch- ing the back of the chair, and with my eyes riveted ina vacant stare at the tablein the telegraph office. 1 knew this was no work of an excited imagination. The words, my practiced eur, were as plain as if shouted it clarion tones. There had come no e¢call for Read Ravine, and the message ended without signature or mark, but abruptly, as it had begun. More than that, it was not the writing of an operator oa any section of the line. I would have swora to that with as much positiveness as you would to the tones of a voice with which you are familiar. inthe dot and dash alphabet we learn to distinguish who is handling the keys almost with as much accuracy as others distinguish handwriting. Andinall my ex- perience I had never heard the sounder ciick off a message like that. While I stood dazed and almost paralyzed (for you must remember that Old Billy’s nerves were strung to aterrible pitch that night), the rapid and unintelligible click- click was resumed as if a demon had again got held of the key. It was fully five minutes before I mustered courage enough to pass into the ticket office and sit down by the table mv- self. Not once had I turned back to look at the box. Almost at the instant of my sitting down at the table the clicking stopped short, as it had done before, and then these words were repeated: Watch the box. Every dot, every dash, every letter, every word, came with such horrible distinctness, that it seemed to senda sharp pain tingling through my ears. It was like the loud whis- ringofsome ghostly voice. Then, again, roke out the jargon of sound that turned the clicking into meaningless confusion. I sprang up from the table, and, with the now strengthened conviction that it was no delusion, no fancy, but that the sound had come plainly over the wires, I felt my courage returning, and resolved to heed the mysterious warning. The rolling of the thunder and the madroar of the storm no longer depressed me. I stepped boldly into my own room, and rested my eyes unflinchingly on the myster- ious box. What was its mysterious freight? Why had the phantom of the storm sent those startling words over the wires? What un- known band bad reached out from the very lightning itself towarn me of some impend- ing danger? These questions rushed through my mind as I felt the dread fear disappearing, and fcund myself of a sudden growing strangely calm. TLe clock struck 10. I turned to the shelf, and with a hand that no longer trembled in- serted the key, and wound it composedly. Would it be the last time that I shoula per- form thatsimple task? No matter. Happier than most men, because content with my humble lot, itshould never be said that Old Billy flinched inthe face of duty. For that night it was my duty—my one sacred. all-im- portant duty—to guard the treasure left tomy keeping. And guard it I would while life re- mamed. WhenI bad finished winding the clock I took down from the shelf an old rusty pistol which had lain for years undisturbed. It was not loaded, nor had I either powder or bullet anywhere in the station. But the weapon was an ugly-looking onefand carried a sort of silent force in case of too aggressive argument. After examining the rusty lock, I put the pistol on the table, made a fresh giass oftoddy, drank it, lighted my pipe, and closed the door that opened into the freight- room. Nowthat I was thoroughiy myself again, I found it easy enough to shut out the sight of that ominous oblong box. It was notuntil theclock struck again— that is, 11—that I made up my mind to go to bed. All that time the storm held on, al- though the thunder began to rumble more distantly. I eff my coat and wi anes . threw ut out the licht in the ticket office and Past in my nye then aging adh Pda Then I drew the money package trom fs oe a POE a i SS hi die ee y Negeching for his revolver, lat the mattress and pinned it securelyto my woolen sbirt, under my vest. This done, and the table so placed that I could reach both the lamp and the pistol, Iopened the doer into the freight-room some three orfour inches and threw myself uponthe bed. Justas my head touched the pillow the instrument,which bad grown quiet now, clicked off for the third time, loudly, distinctly, slowly, its words of warning: ‘**Watch the box!’’ This time the warning was not needed. I had not gone to bed to sleep, but for the very purpose of watching the box. Standing as it did with the head close to the door, and therefore close to the box itself, the bed af- forded the ie best point from which to keep an eye on the —_ cious freight. Had my faith inthe telegraphic clicking been less, or had my own sense of great responsibility deserted me for a single moment, [ should certainly have given up the job of watching as foolish; and in that case itis not likely that this narrative would ever have been written. But I believed in the _ thrice-repeated message, and I did not let drowsiness overcome patience. Twelve, one, two—how slowly the hours seemed to drag themselves. The low flame of the lamp went out, as the oil randry. What arelief* it wasto hear the clock strike! At last, somewhere about mid- night, the storm had broken. I could see the sters us they came out, through the window inthe freight-room, which was on a line of vision with the box. How strangely still it seemed after the mighty §roar of the storm and thesharp clapsof tbunder! Nota click from the instrument now. Nota sound save the sturdy ticking of the clock. Still I lay listening, watching, with faculties all alert, and my eyes always on the oblong box. A little past 2—perhaps ten minuteg. The silence hecame almost painful in its profound- ness. Nothing but the tick-tick of the clock, which, tomy eager ear, had taken on this sound, which it kept on repeating over and over: ‘*‘Watch — the — box! Watch—the — box!” W hat wae that? Not the elock, not the telegraphic instru- ment. Ne, it was the sound as of the grating of iron. First, very faint, yet still audible to my ear! Breathing regularly and deeply, as one breathes in sleep, Ilay and listened. An- other interval of silence, and then the grating sound came again, this time a trifle louder than before. The light of the stars shining through the wingew made the objects in the freight room visible. Almost simultaneously with the second grating noise I saw the cover of the wooden box rising slowly from the end furthest removed from the bed. I could feel my heart thumping away like a sledge ham- mer, but I continued to breathe roe ied and to watch keenly. Gently and noiselessly the cover was pressed upward until it reached an angle which completely shut out from my view the window beyond. A moment later the figure of a man came out of the shadows, while the box cover was let down as noise- lessly as it had been raised. This, then, was the burden of the box, This was the meaning of the mysterious warn- ing which the sounder had spoken. With cat-like tread, the figure moved toward the door of rs room. Still I lay as in deep sleep. On the threshold the figure aused, anda moment later a single ray of ight like a silver thread, pierced the dark- ness and fell upon the bed. Luckily it did not strike my face, and in aninstant I closed my eycs. As I had anticipated, the ray of light was directed toward my pillow, and by the sense of feeling I knew it rested a moment on my face. Satisfied that I was in deep slumber, the figure, still with cat-like tread, glided through the bed-room and into the ticket office. My eyes were wide open again by thistime. The light from the dark lan- tern bad increased, but its rays were now turned toward the safe. Obviously the rob- ver had believed the treasure that he sought Avas there. I waited until he had knelt down to examine the lock, and then with step as noiseless as his own I slipped from the bed to- ward the half-open door. So intent was he in exumining the safe that it was not until I was witbin reach of him that he heard me. He sprang to his feet, bringing the glass of the lantern full into my face, and which he had Tfpon the top of the safe. But he was too late. Withtherusty old pistol, held by its long barrel, 1 dealt hima crushing blow onthe head just as his fingers grasped his own weapon. He fell heavily, without utter- ing agroan. The lantern was extinguished as it fell, and with trembling fingers1 strucka match and lighted the lamp ip the office. bmen will afford them opportunities, the temporary migration may answer a more dur- able purpose tban the inundation of the United States with Fieneh fashions aad ua- autbenticated [taiian art. lager- gardens.
