It was only with the utmost difficulty and by a liberal use of the club that the crowd was kept outside the ropes. As soon as the boys were on the scaffold they and the priests began to pray, kneeling bare- headed in the sun. After aie few minutes passed this way, the boys were bid- den good bye by ethose on the yscaffold, and were pinioned.

Considering the condition of the scaffold and the rope it was the neatest and quickest execution ever scen in the West. THE BOYS’ CRIME,, As the drop Any account of the murder for which ex-- piation is being wrought to-day to be com- plete must tell two stories. It must tell the tale of the crime as developed at the trial, and it must tell the tale told by the brothers with death staring them straigat in the face. These stories are different in many parts, and vet there is a consistency abow& them which will at once strike ime tareful reader. Dr. P, 43. Talbott, the murdered man, was sv thétime of his death the editor of the Greenback Standard, a paper published at Maryville, Mo. He wasalso engaged in prac- tising medicine, and he lived about nise miles from thecity. Onthe evening of Saturday, the 1Sth of last September, Dr. Talbott, who had been attending a country fair, returned home and soon after started out on a profes- sional call. Returning to his house he entered the front room and sat down @nthe bed. At the time his wife was lying omfhe bed and his son Albert sitting by the w which the father’s face was turned. Sudden-~ ly a loud teport was heard and Dr. Tatbott | arose froma the bed and staggered arounad-the room. The assassin’s bullet had struck him in the right breast, passing entirely through lying behind him, aud finally imbedded itself in the plaster of tué wall. The ball was large and conical, Welghing an @unce and a half, and was large enowgh to de shot from a shot- cun. Dr. Talbott had his hand up to his breast when the murderer fired, and the bul- let carried away the thumb and middle finger of his right hand. All was immediately up- roar. Albert placed tis father ina reclia- ing position onthe bed. He then seized a gun from the corner and rushed out into the Soon after a shot was heard, and Albert on bis return stated that he had | caught a glimpse of a man running away from the house and had fired at him without effect. The woundded man lived in great agony until2 p. m on the following Sunday, when he died. Before his death. he declared that he could notimagine why any- body should &ill him, and even surmised that the capiialists of the country had sent assas- sins to kill him on accountof his opposition to the National Banks. Hie lefta will giving all his estate to his wife during her life and afterwards to his children. The Coroner’s investigation resulted in nothing. Mrs. Talbott and Albert, the only witnesses to the shooting, were examined and told the above tale. The jury returned a verdict that deceased had been killed by somé unknown person. The verdict, however, satistied no one, and from the very first suspicion rested onthe family. Theiraction had been very strange. They had made no efforts‘to arouse the neighbors or to pursue the asssassin. While the Doctor lay ‘dying the wife and children seemed perfectiy unconcerned. After the murder shooting was often heard around the house, and the boys, in order to give color tothe assassination, claimed that they had been attacked by armed men. This ruse contirmed suspicion, and every develop- ment was closely watched. <A_ detective named James E. Brighton arrived from Kan- sys and wentto work onthe case. He soon became intimate with the Talbotts, and his wife, who passed herself off as his sister, be- came very friendly witn Albert Talbott. Soon the developments came. The boys took trighton, Who assumed the name of Hudson, into their confidence, and tried to hire him to kill a man named Henry Wyatt, who, they said, knew that they had killed the old man. Wyatt was sleeping up stairs in the house on the night of the nrurder. On thetrial he swore that Ed Talbott took the gun and went down stairs to shoot his fatber. Both. boys had quarreled with the old man frequently, and they had in conjunction with Wyatt laid plans to kill him on several oceasions. Brighton testified tothe same facts, and on this evidence both boys were sentenced to be banged. The old man was well known for his brutality to his family. THE CONFESSION made by Charles Talbott, with death starin him in the face, runs to the effect that he did, indeed, shoot his father, whom he found kicking his mother in their bedroom. He savs bis father then called the family around bim and forgave them and asked te be for- given; that the old man advised them to stick together and spread the report that the National Banks and public corporations had bired an assassin to kill him, and that he ordered Albert Talbott to rmn out with a gun and sheot at anybody he i wmight see in order thus to convey the im- pression that the assassin was escaping. The remainder is a matter of history. Suspicion soon centered on the or yp and they were arrested on the vote of J. V. Brighton. Albert P. Talbott corroborates this confes- sion in full as far as father’s orders are con- cerned his telling him to go out and shoot off the gun. As to of course he knows nothing about it. It was considered that this confession would have sothe effect upon the Goverees, but that gentleman has notified the Sheri that he will not/ interfere, and consequently They died without a | dow, tawards | e balance of the confession A |, Mg? il te : CHAS. E. TALBOTT. Chas. E. Talbott was only 17 years old, al- though he looked much older thanthat. He nad a strong mustache and rather an intel- lectual face. Charles Talbott had only one passion, marksmanship. for which his keen eye and steady nerve well fitted him. He was a boy of considerable promise. Like his brother he was much given to the reading of sensational novels and the desire to be known as a hero was strong within him. His intel- lectual parts had been grossiv neglected. ae ee ———$$ even the attempt of the younger brother to concentrate all the crime upon himself has been of no avail. The originai trial was before Judge Howell, of the Nodaway Circuit, beginning on Mon- day, January 22, 1881, and ending after al- mosttwo weeks of yery bard work upon February 4, 1881. On the next day a motion fora new trial was made and overruled and sentence was then passed, condemning the two boys to die on the 25th of March. On the 22d of March it was calied 1n the Supreme Court and a stay granted until May 4. On the 27th of April the case came up, but was passed down the docket again until May 11, when the decision of the lower court was af- firmed. In the meantime an- other stay was vranted until June 25, and onthat date a further respite was granted by the Governor of the State un- till July 22, ' THE LAST CONFESSION, On the day before yesterday the boys evolved another confession which was pub- lished in yesterdays PostT-DisraTcH. Albert told his last story and Charles certified to it. The gist of the statment is that the killing was done by Henry Wryatt, the hired man, who turned State’s evidence. Albert Talbott cites as proof a conversation he overheard between Wyatt and Mitchell in which the former acknowledged the killing of Dr. Talbott, and a prior conversation in which Wyatt agreed to commit the murder fora consideration. ———_ _~f —-- - - AT CLINTON. Execution of John W. Patterson for the Murder of J. G. Clark. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CLINTON, MO., Juiy 22.—Patterson slept several hours during the night,closely guard- ed. Heawoke at daybreak and calledfor a drink of whisky, which was given to bim. A substantial break- fast of beefsteak and eggs Wa* Pirnished him at his own request about ¢ © clock, and he heartily relished the meal. Later on he called for a cigar which he held in his fingers. Whenthe POST-DISPATCH re- porter called Patter$Son came to the door of the ce]] and in reply to an inquiry as to how he felt said: sa am fully as well as any one could expect to be under the circumstances. 1 have NOTHING MORE TO SAY concerning the murder of Clarke. I prepared a statement the other day, which was given for publication after my death, and a copy of itis to be sent to my wife. The man, Hal- ford, who died in Granby a few years ago, must have killed Clarke out on the prairie. I was in Sedalia hauling some furniture for my folks when Clarke met me and asked me to haul a toad of lumber for him, but I did not take the job and that was the last that I saw of Clarke. I donot care to say anything +on the scaffold. It would be no good.” Mr. McBeth, one of the prisoner’s counsel. returned from his mission to Jefferson City this morning. The Governor refused to in- terfere with the sentence, and the fact was communicated to the condemned man, who betrayed no emotion and merely replied, ‘‘Well, I suppose nothing more can be done.” PATTERSON’S COOL NERVE surprised every one, and the few tears which he shed on Wednesday when he was changed into another cell to prepare for death were only the signs of weakening. His stolid indifference has not been affected by all the ef- forts of Elder Pearce who has called re- peatedly to see him. The town tilled up dur- ing the night with wagon parties from all parts of the country within a radius of one hundred miles. The accommodations of the place were wholly inadequate. THE VISITORS CAMPED OUT on the grounds surrounding the scaffold. There has been no execution here for thirty- five years. The Clinton people disavow any intention of being present, but it will be dif- ficult to find a man, woman or child around the Court Flouse sqnare when the Sheriff’s procession starts for (the scaffold. Itis placedin a patch opposite the woolen mills, half a mile southwest of the town. The platform is 12x12, 8 feet. above. ground, and the upright beam rises 10 feet above the trap door on the north side. THE CONDEMNED MAN was moved at § o’clock into a special cell to make bis toilet and dress for the scaffold. He was attired ina plain suit of black and a black soft hat. He will be taken to the scaf- fold in a buggy, guarded by tne Sheriff and two deputies and preceded bv a specia] guard of forty armed citizens. Very little sympathy bas been expressed for Pat- terson. He was convicted upon his own clear confession circumstantial evidence. and conclusive HE SHED TEARS. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CLINTON, Mo., Julv 22.—Special trains from Sedalia and Fort Scott have ar- rived with hundreds of men and wo- men who are hurrying through town to the scene of the execution. Not less than 1,000 country teams are around the Court} House square and fully 10,000 people have ar- rived during the early morning. Elder Pearce entered the condemned man’s cell after he was dressed for the scaffold and prayed earn- estly for some time, but it had very little ef- fect. Patterson remained upon his knees and SHED ONE OR TWO TEARS when bis wife and child were mentioned in the minister’s prayer. He told Elder Pearce that be bad nothing to unbosom, but he forgave all persons for whom at any time he hed entertained any hard feelings. The min- ister at Patterson’s request will accompany him tothe scaffold. Evervthing is in readi- ness for the execution about noon. GOD HAVE MERCY ON HIS SOUL. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CLINTON, Mo., July 22.—The scaffold was reached promptly at 11:30, The doomed m | Stood in front of the death trap while Elder Pearce read an appropriate passage of scripture. He then offered up a prayer, all present on the scaffold joining with the pris- oner. The crowd observed the best of order and several uncovered their heads in the blistering rays of tbe sun. Thousands stood upon the amphitheater of the surrounding hilltops gazing _ silent- ly upon the scene. heriff Hopkins read out the death warrant to the prisoner who stood calm and collected with his eyes fixed upon the crowd in front of thetrap. During the prayer he held a_ handkerchief to his face. Before the black cap was placed over his face, he thanked his attorneys, Fyke and McBeth, in a few woras for all they had done for ,him and shook hands with the Sheriff and his deputies. At 12 o’clock precisely Sheriff Hopkins, saying, ‘‘John W. Patterson, may Go have mercy on your soul,”? cut the rope. e drop fell and in 20 minutes the doctors pronounced life extinct. There was afew twitchings of the shoulders, but that was the only struggle visible. The execution was well arranged and perfectly carried out. HIS NECK BROKEN. CLINTON, MO., July 22.—Patterson with a osse left the jail at 11:15, arriving at the gal- ows, one half a mile northwest of town at 11:30. Religious services were said by Elder Pearce, the prisoner standing with uncovered head. About 8,000 people covered the tops of the hills which surrounded the place where the gallows were erected. After the prayer was concluded the prisoner in a very low tone thanked the Sheriff and his attorneys for the kindness they had shown him. Sheriff Hopkins then read the death warrant. The prisoner then shook hands with the Sheriff, attorney, clergy and others. His arms were bound and hisdegs tied. Asthis was going on Patterson looked around on the vast crowd around him. The black cap was ut on and the rope adjusted. At 11:53 the Sheriff with an upraised broad-ax said: “John W. Patterson, may _ the Lord bave mercy on your. soul!’ = and with the last sounaing words the trap rope was cut and the soul of Patterson went hence. In thirteen minutes he was dead and in fifteen minutes was cut down and put in a coffin and buried at public expense, hav- ing no friends in the country. His neck was broken. PATTERSON’S LAST DAY. Special] to the Post-Dispatch. CLINTON, HENRY Co., July 22.—This town is excited at the prospect of the hanging bee which will attract several thousand persons from al] parts of the State. Special trains have been chartered by _ enterprising individuals at Sedalia and other centra oints, and the citizens are pouring n from every town and hamlet to witness the most solemn spectac’e ofthelaw. The man sentenced to undergo the extreme penalty is / John W. Patterson, who will be punished for a brutal] crime committed thirteen years ago. This may be considered one of the must. re- markable cases in criminal history. John W. Patterson was convicted at the April terin, 1881, of the Henry County Circuit Court of the murder of James G. Clark, on the Ist day of December, 1868, near Leesville, in Henry county. . The crime, which was committed in 1868, yas avery brutal one, and Patterson, after his arrest, was indicted in Morgan county, whither ne had taken a change of venue, but pending trial broke jail and es- ecaped. Heeluded rearrest for ten years, but was finally taken in Livingston county, II)., and returned to Henry county for trial. At the April term, 1881, a new indictment being found, Patterson was tried, convicted and sentenced to be hanged June 10, f881. An appeai to the Supreme Court was taken, which granted a stay of execution, and after- wards extended the time until July 22. THE CRIME. In December, 1808, James G. Clark, a coun- try farmer, engaged Patterson, a teamster at that time in Sedalia, to hau! a load of lumber for him. Clark had some money about him and it did not escape Patterson’s notice. They stopped for one night ata house near the Tebo Creek on the road between Sedalia and Carthage. Clark complained of chills, and leaving there the next day Patterson resolved to take advantage of his employer in some secluded spot, and secure the money, which amounted to about $400. Clark was never seen again alive and _ his corpse was found mutilated near Leadville on the open prairie. Patterson was pursued and arrested, and on the following day he made a confes- sion of the crime, saying that Clark fell asleep on the wagon, complaining of chills. Seizing the opportunity he knocked him on the head with a batchet, then held his head back and chopped his throat. He’ took the money from his pockets, threw the body out on the prairie, inloaded at Browning and returned with his team to Sedalia. Patterson was indicted in Morgan county,a change of venue having been taken, but pending the trial he managed to break jail and escaped. For ten vesrs he eluded arrest, and was at length heard of in Livingston county, IIL., where he had married and settled. HIS CAPTURE. Some inquiries made by Patterson concern- ing the propertv of his deceased father, a Quaker of Jasper county, furnished the clue to his whereabouts and be was rearrested about eleven montbs ago. He was returned to Henry county for trial. At the last April term a new indictment was returned against him; he was tried, convicted and sentenced for execution. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court and a stay grant- ed meanwhile, but Justice Sherwood in an elaborate opinion aflirmed the judgment a few weeks since,and the sentence was carried out to-day. HE SHEDS TEARS. Patterson bas remained indifferent to his fate until now, and yesterday for the first time he was seen to shed tears. His wife was bere atthe trial but she has not visited him since. He ate a hearty breakfast this morn- ing. The Rev. Mr. Pearce, of the Methodist Church, has endeavored to administer spirit- ual consolation to him but it was of no avail. The scaffold has been placed a_ short distance fromtown andali arrangements are com- plete for the execution. A reporterofthe Post-DispaTcu visited the condemned manin his cell to-day. The Methodist minister was present at the time. HE HOPES FOR A STAY. Patterson is a young man about 52 years of age, possessed of astrong physique, and he converses With more than ordinary intelli- gence. He does not appear to realize his fate, and still) has hope of Executive clemency. His attorneys left for Jefferson City by yes- terday’s train to appeal to Gov. Crittenden in bis behalf. A young man visiting the jail on the Fourth of July related to Patterson a story of ap uncle of his named Halford, who had died in Newton county, confessing to have mur- dered a man named Clarke, and upon this shadow of hope the prisoner’s counsel have rushed tothe capital bearing acard which establishes the identity of the uncle, but nothing more. The Prosecuting Attorney of Newton county investigated the matter to that effect, and the condemned man caught at the straw. AN UNPUBLISHED CONFESSION. Several ministers have called at the jail to see Patterson, but he manifested no disposi- tion to talk and appeared to care little for the hereafter. The Rev. Mr. Pearce has been rsistent in his efforts to furnish the com- orts of religion, but Patterson’s mind is en- tirely bent upon the hope of a stay of execution. He shook hands with the reporter of the Post-DIsPaTcH this morning and said that he was not fairly treated at trial. Some of the witnesses had sworn falsely. It isasingular fact that although the murder was committed thirteen years ago, every member of the Coroner’s jury! and every witness present at the in- quest on the murdered man, Clarke, is alive to-day to testify in the case. Patterson has been solicited both by ministers and newspaper men to make a free and full confession of his crime before reaching the scaffold and a few days since he prepared a statement which was given into the hands of the editor ofa local paper with a view to publication. Last night, however, Patterson’s counsel secured the document and withheld it, fearing that it might prejudice their efforts at Jefferson City for a stay of the execution. WAS IT ANOTHER MURDER? Since the publication of the trial a letter has been received from Dr. Benson, living near Indianapolis, who states that several years ago Patterson was very intimate with a younger son of his; thatthe two lads disap- peared together one day, and that his son has never been heard of since. A Post-D1s- PATCH reporter uestioned the con- demned man to-day in this matter and he replied as follows: ‘‘Several years back, when I was quite a young fellow, Dr. Benson’s second son used to go around with me. We lived atthattime near Indianapo- lis and our folksall knew each other. Dr. Benson had afarm, and he was known asa pretty rough sort of a man in the treatment of his _ boys. They _ fre- quently got severe whippings and were getting sick of it. One of the boys went away tosea. The one I was acquainted with made up his mind to go toa large town and learn atrade. Hereceived some money from , his mother and I went with nim to Indianapo- jis, where I purchased a ticket for him to Louisville. About a week later I had 2 letter from him saying that he had reached Louis- ville safely and that was the last that I heard of him.’? WHY HE CONFESSED. The reporter asked Patterson how he re- conciled the fact that he had cenfessed to the crime after his arrest in 1868, and again last year when he was rearrested.and yet was now resting upon the hope that the guilt could be fastened uponadead man who was reported to have made a vague confession about some- body. Patterson hesitated a moment, then looked up and said: “Well, you see, I was bothered to death with questions and did not count the cost at the time. When & man is cornered with so many inquiries be is glad to silence them by admitting what they want him to admit.’’ HIS RELIGIOUS FAITH. Patterson has no settled religious faith, although his friends were Quakers in Jasper county. His fatheris dead. Since his mar- riage Patterson attended the Methodist Church in Livingston county, Ills., in com- pany withhis wife. No suspicion ever at- tached to him in the neighborhood where he lived, although no one cared to seek hissociety. Heis a sood looking man, about six feet in height, well proportioned, dark brown hair and mus- tache, noside whiskers, soft quiet voice and easy mannered. When asked bythe Posr- DISP ATCH reporter whether he expected to see his wife and child again he said: ‘No, Sir; [hada letterfrom my wife the other day, but she expressed no intention of camies to see me again,’? IN THE DOOMED CELL. The prisoner has been confined in the new jail, a neat structurenear the depot, since his trial. When the Supreme Court affirmed tbe judgmentin his case Sheriff Hopkins con- veyed the information to the doom- ed man and took every precau- tion to revent self-destruction. Patterson ridiculed the idea but every article suggesting suicide, even his looking-glass, was remoyed. On Wednesday he was moved toa special cell to await execution and a guard remains outside the door night and day. A MISSING WATCH. A few days since Patterson sent for the Sheriff and told bim that be had gathered to- vcether a lot of trinkets and keepsakes which he had placed in a_ box and he desired it to be sent by express to his wife after his death. Upon examination of the box it was found to contain a watch belonging to the turnkey which had been missing for mapy days. His conduct otherwise since his incarceration has been exceptionsily good, giving notrouble whatever to the officers of the jail. THE LAST PREPARATIONS. This morning be asked for adrink of whis- ky, complaining very much ofthe beat, and it was given to him in a small] «qtantity. Ile will be allowed to have whatever he ealls for in moderation until the sentence is carried out. ‘Fhe sher- iff’s special guard will consist of forty cvcare- tully-selected . citizens, who will lead the prisoner tothe scaffold about half a mile trom the jail, located near the mill. The rope urrived from St. Louis by yesterday’s train. It is atbree-quartcrineh hemp with noose doubly-secured andis pronounced perfect by connoisseurs in the art. Only members of the press and ininisters will be admitted to the immediate vicinity of the scaffold,fbut the execution will probably be witnessed by ten thousand per sons Whose morbid curiosity attracts them to the scene. Lemonade stands are in course of erection al] along the line of route to the scaffold, and the town bears all the appear- ance of busy preparation for a festive ovca- sion. Two Chicago Failures. CHICAGO, July 22.—T. M. Baxter, exten- sive grain and provision dealer here and New York, failed this morning, having peen caught on the wiong side of a swiftiv aivanc- ing wheat market. Mr. Baxter himself is at Long Branch. Mr. Baxter was time of the open Board of Trade, an organization in which anybody may trade and where deals are generally made on asmall scale. He assistedin the organiza- tlon of that Board, but was principally con- cerned in the regular. It is not believed that his liabilities are heavy or that he has lost very extensively. His deais are principally on New York count. Francis J. Kennett, name is familiar through his recent connec- tion with the controversy over the missing receipts for gruin in the Keokuk elevator,also failed to-day, probably for a small umount. The yvrain market and particularly wheat have been so strong that weak shorts bave been shaken out very rapid- ly. Margins were es lied vigorously yesterday and to-day, and as little seeway las been al- owed scalpers und middlemen there have been very few failures. President at one ae- whose re = ——- — Shot and Mortally Wounded. LITTLE Rock, Axk., July 22.—Robert Cos- tello yesterday shot and mortally wounded a man named Gothering near Ar- kansas City. It seems Costello had missed some hogs and accused Gothering of killing them. While Gothering was plowing in a field Costello shot from the fence corner,, the ball striking the victim in the side pasa- ing through and striking and killing a borse two rods distant.

The Ladies at the Races—Some of the Howling Swells—The Waters. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. SARATOGA, July 18.—Saturday inaugurated the first races of the season, and as the day wus fine there was a large and brilliant gath- ering. The grand stand was threnged with ladies in elegant costumes, and around them vathered the fascinating youth of the period, jauntily attired in suits of blue or whit. flannel, with field glasses slung over their shoulders and the inevitable little red bet- ting books in their hands. The ladies also have acquired a fancy for betting—and laid many a wager, not only for bon-bons, gloves, jewels, ctc., but also for hard cash. Of course itis one peculiar feature of ladies’ betting that they always expect to win, no matter what may be the record of the turf. As their yentiemen friends buy their tickets for them it is supposed that they will! be too gallant to allow them to lose. Atleast it is quite cer- tain that your youthful and pretty belles are always winning, and that only now and then some antiquated dowager, who risks her money in the sincere hope of increasing it, pays for her temerity by going home with an empty purse. Last year a lady won a pair of diamond solitaires which sparkle this sea- comin her little ears. As she had the liberty of selecting them she chose 1 two theusand dollar pair, and the chivalric loser of the bet paid the sum without wincing. However, we noticed that he kept shy of the grand stand upon Saturday morning, having learned a Lit of wisdom from the past. But then nobody seems to mind spending money at Saratoga. People come here for that purpose, or, if they dlo not, they had better remain at home, since the Fates are all against a man’s keeping money in his purse here at the Springs. The sum- mer comes put once a year, and hotel-keepers and villagers realize that fact and improve their opportunities. Probably there is more wealth congregated together at the height of the season in Saratoga than at any other place in Ainerica, or any other watering place upon the globe. Here are the Vanderbilts, the Astors, the Stewarts and the proud old Knick- erbocker families of New York; the quiet un- pretending Quaker aristocracy of Philadel- phia: the wealth and culture of Boston; the mercbant princes and railroad magnates of Baltimore and St. Louis, and the colossal fortunes of the far West. You may count millionaires by the dozens at Saratoga, and a foreigner, taking bis first glimpse of America here, might easily infer that money is a drug inthe American market and that all Ameri- eans are born rich, It is quite true that there are hundreds of our junesse doree here—the curled and petted darlings of society—-whose greatest strugzle in life has been to spend the money their fae thers toiled so long and arduously to win. But, judging from the examples afforded at Saratoga of the effeminate fashionable vouths of the day, it may be seriously doubted whether it is reallva stroke of good luck for a young man to have been born with a golden spoon in his mouth and to be able to step into golden shoes on the very threshold of life. Forthese very young men, had riches heen denied them, might have carved out a career for themselves instead of being the af- fected nonentities they are. Their greatest misfortune evidently is their money, and that riches have Wings is never truer than when applied to these scions of wealthy families. Vervdifferent are the men who have made their own fortunes in life and who come here to enjoy their wealth and to give their fami- lies the advantages of society at a fashionable Watering place. The faces of such men are alWays interesting to the careful observer, for they bear the impress of life’s conflicts; they ure seamed and scarred in the many battles Which have preceded victory at the last. An unfurrowed brow has neyer yet worn the Victor’s crown, and there is all after a simple crandeur about our self-made men, in to thatof the statue hewn out of rouchye™ “ite, or the strength of the sturdy eo Soak Which has weathered the tempests of a century. Drinking the spring wateris of course one ofthe regular duties of the day at Saratoga— and itis amusing to hear the various com- ments made as people go from one spring to another, sipping from each sparkling font. Somebody says there is nothing ant as strony as Hathorn water—not even excepting the mint pe in Which Baltimoreans delight. Others affirm that the old Congress spring is superior to allin its medical qualities, and still others declare it has lost its power and disdain to drinkit. If there really are heal- ing properties inthe springs there must be some power also of doing harin, and it is no wonder that people sometime become seri- ousty ill by drinking indiscriminately of the Waters, Itis the new-comer here who is apt to suffer, for he mixes a dozen classes of the different waters in his inner man on the principle that if one glass is cood, many gias- sen are better, The cathartic springs, as tie Hathorn and Congress, one generally drinks before breakfastand late inthe afternoon. The lron springs are drank in the middie of the «day and at night before retiring. The dahitues of saratoga, however, need no instructions about drinking the wa- ters. They take their half dozen glasses be- fore breakfast with ejuanimity, althouch how breakfast is possible after such an inter- naldeiuge tis hard tosay. Faith 1s said to work miracies and it may be the faith which many people have in the curative powers of the springs, Which enables them to yet rid of their complaints, But, whether it is the wa- ters or not Which keep people youny and cure ihem of their maladies, Many persons have undoubtedly prolonged their lives by a yearly visit to Saratova. The morning hours in the hours of seven and nine, are among the pleasantest of the day. The band Is playing, and crowds of people gostroliiag through the grounds, admiring the beds ofjzorgeous hued flowers, the smoothly gravelled walks, the tame squirrels which fit across the paths, the the park, between arkling in the . y P with a golden ax, itis to be — o feed from your hand, the who swarm to the surface mbs, the fountains ade of the over-arc . vilion around the spring are gat of people at the small tavles at which water is served, laughing and chatting with their friends. Thus pleasantly begins the day at Saratoga, and every succeeding hour nas its appointed pleasures until midnight closes the merry scene. Time goes by on golden wings, and nobody ever dreams of being dull. SOPHIE SPARKLE. COL. BAKER AT HOME. What Constitutes a Gentleman in Eng- lish High Society. London Correspondence N. ¥. Tribune. The question, What is a gentleman, or what goes to the making of a gentieman?’ Is one that every now and then comes up for discus- sion, and perhaps never with quite satisfac- tory or decisive results. It has been raised afresh by the Army and Navy Club, with re- sults that may or mav not be satisfactory, but are certainly remarkable. Col. Valentine Baker, more lately known as Baker Pacha, was formerly a member of this club, which, be it said,is one of the two chief military clubs of London. When Baker was convicted of an assault on Miss Dickinson, and turned out of the army, he ceased, under rule 6, to he a member of the Army and Navy Club. Everybody remembers the facts, remem)ers how far Baker’s attempt upon the girl was carried, and by what desperate means and at what risk to ber life she saved her honor. - He bad the good luck to be tried before a fashionable Judge,and got off with a year’s imprisonment as a first class misdemeanant. The cry of indignation which greeted this misplaced lenity did not preventhim from living comfortably for the twelve months in a well furnished room,in his own clothes, with uncropped head, the society of his friends, and as sumptuous fare as he choose to pay for. But for the Queen’s personal in- terposition, he would, it was said at the time, have escaped. _He had beena gallant, popular officer, and ‘*society’’ Was only too willing he should be let off easily. The Duke of Cambridge did his best for him, but the Queen has stern views on such matters, and was resolute that her uniform should not be woin any longer bv Valentine Baker. It was the fashion at the time to say that he had been hardly treated. At any rate, he had to go out of all societies open to him, and the world over found that of the Turk the most ec n°enial. He proved himself to bea man after the Turk’s own heart, and became a Pacha. A year ortwoago he returned to London. The Duke of Sutherland took him up warmly, and a memorable dinner was given him at the Stafford House. The Prince of Wales was present. Speeches were made by him and others. Baker was declared to have done penance enough for his piccadillo, a formal absolution was pronounced on him by prince- ly and ducal lips, and the ruflian who had all but ravished an unprotected girl walked the streets and salons of London with his head as hich as ever. It remained only to restore him to his posi- tion in the club world, a reinstatement in the army being, from the Queen’s obduracy and other good reasons, out of the question. Such enterprises required time and management. It was necessary to get in the first place fiftv members to propose his readmission. He had then to pass through the usual ordeal ofa ballot. Now, the terms of the rule are strin- gent. It enacts that in case of a member ceas- ing, upon conviction before a criminal court or expulsion from the army, to belong to the club, should it be the opinion of any hfty members (not being of the committee) that the cause of quitting the service does not af- fect his character as a gentleman, or should the criminal! conviction from subsequent evi- dence be set aside, he shall be eligible for re- re without the payment of an entrance ee. Under that rule fifty members of the Army and Navy Club were found to express the re- (uired opinion. A ballot was taken on Sat- urdav; 3o9 members voted for Baker’s read- mission and S9 against. The proportion re- quired to exclude being 1 to 10 of the whole number of votes cast, he was declared elect- ed. A majority of ten to onein a club com- osed of officers of the British army and Brit- sh navy has thus affirmed the opinion of the o1iginal fifty, and it is taken as settled, so far as military autbority can settle it, that such an act as Baker committed is an act consist- ent with the character of a gentleman. One rather wonders what verdict this con- clave would have given had Baker actually accom plished his purpose. Nothing but the extraordinary courage and resolution of Miss Dickinson hindered him from accomplishing it, so that as far as intent and moral guilt goes itmay be inferred that the rape of ayoung and innocent and absolutely irreproachable young girl would not, inthe opinion of the Army and Navy Club, affect the character as au ventieman of any one of its members. Uncle Rufus as An Art Critic. From the New York Sun. The walls of Rufus Hatch’s new office is hung with engravings of Rosa Bonheur’s cat- tle pictures which, the veteran says, are pure- ly symbolical. “You can pick out the great men Without a telescope here,’’ he adds, in- dicating the picture entitled ‘The Stampede,” delineating a drove of affrightened bulls and steers trampling each other under foot, with terror-stricken sheep darting between them. ‘“*That’s a great picture. by one of the old masters.

Something About the Youthful Desper- rade Lately Killed in New Mexico. From the San Francisco Examiner. Probably the most noted desperado .of the present times Billy the Kid, about whom there bas been so much said in the various telegrams received during the past few weeks. His rea! name is not known, but the name un- der which he registered at the County Jail of Grant county is Wm. Antrim. In appearance Billy isthe mildest person imaginable; yet though bardly more than 21 years of age he has murdered nineteen people. Heisa aoe blue-eyed, quiet mannered, light-haire youth, such as may be found waiting on the table in the various restaurants in this city. He came into Silver City at a Very early period of his life, and lived there with his stepfather until he reached the age of 15 years, when, on account of ill-treat- ment by the paternal Antrim, he left his home and accepted a position as waiterin the principal hotel in the place. His first steps onthe downward path were of the sneak thief character. A shorttime after his em- lovment by the hotel keeper he stole some butter and soldit. The affair was settled in some manner, and a few weeks after he dis- tinguished himself by stealing the clothes of a Chinaman. He was arrested on a charge of petty larceny, and convicted of the crime. W bile serving out his sentence he managed to escape through a chimney leading to the top of the building, and the next morning the Sheriff was astonished to find the cell empty and Billy gone. The chimney through which he made his escape was 50 small that, as the sheriff expressed it, ‘‘I could hardly put my fist into the hole.”’ Billy, after escaping, wandered through the country to a ranch on the border line of Arizona, where he was engaged by a black- smith asahelperinhisshop. The blacksmith, who was a drunken individual and a bully by nature, undertcok to impose on Billy, in whose appearance he was cOmpletely deceived. A more insignificant-looking youth could hardly be imagined, and one morning, while a little the worse for the liquor imbibed the night before, the blacksmith became enraged with Billy and was about to lay violent hands on him, when Billy promptly drew a pistol and shot him through the heart. Billy escaped and for some time wus not heard from, but about two years afterward he turned up in Lincoln county, to the north of Grant county. It was at tbis time that the Lincoln county ‘‘war’? commenced. A short time before a man died, leaving about $12,000 behind him for the benefit of his heirs. His oaly sister came to New Mexico for the purpose of obta‘ning pos- session of the money, but in the meantime the administrator was trying to obtain the money for his own benefit. Billy the Kid arrived at this point in tbe affair and immediately de- termined upon possessing himself of the money. Each leader gathered about him a large number of desperadoes, andthe Sheriff of the county took part with the administra- tor. The “rough” element was divided, and for several weeks numerous desdiy encoun- ters took place. Billy the Kid killed thirteen people during the war with his own rifle, among whom was the Sheriff of the county, who was shot by Billy in making an attack on a house in which Billy and some of his friends were fortified. A new Sheriff was elected, and shortly, after Billy Was captured at a house in che town and confined atthe Lincoln County Jail, under the watchful care of two burly desper- adoes who had fought against Billy and his small retinue. These men were murderers of note, and consequently considered fit per- sonages to have charge of prisoners. Billy was condemnedto be hung, and while await- ing execution again made his escape from jail under exciting circumstances. As is custom- ary in cases where desperate characters are concerned, Billy was handcuffed, anda pair of anklets placed on his limbs, to which was attached a heavy iron ball. As the day of execution drew near Bully persuaded the ruardstounloosen one ofhis handcuffs to allow him to eat with more ease. He took no immediate advantage ofthis untila day or two previous to the time set for his death. One of his guards went to town, which was about two hundred vards from the jail, teaving the other guards to see that Billy bebaved himself. During the absence of this man Billy engaged the other in conver- sation and unnoticed stepped behind him, and raising his hand to which was attached the two handcuffs brought it down so that the loose handcuff hit the cuard on the head and knocked him down. Before the guard could rise Billy had relieved him of his pistols, and taking deliberate aim shot him through the head. Billy then wentto the guard room or armory, and loading all the weapons took them to a room which overlooked the road to the town. The guard who had started for town having heard the shot and suspecting that something was wrong, came running up the road justas Billy opened the window. Billy seized a rifle, and when the guard came within balting distance cried out: ‘*Halloo! Bill’ The man stopped and looked up, andas he did so Billy shot bim through the heart. Billy then jumped out of the window and commanded the cook of the establishment to take off hisirons, under penalty of death. This accomplished, Billy ordered the cook to catch the best horse he could find and bring him tothe prison. Bythis time the people of the town began toarrive at the scene, but all were so awed by Billvy’s appearance that they did not dare to lav handson bim. The cook brought a horse which Billy mounted and attempted to ride, but the animal threw him and scampered off. Billy again ordered the cook to catch the horse, and when that was accomplished the **Kid’’ coolly mounted and rode away. All attempts to catch him were failures, and he disappeared for a time. About a month ago Billy turned up at the COW camp of John Chisum, in the Pan Handle. Three boys were seated around a fire cooking sup- per, and the fourth, Bennett Howell, was hobblinga horse about twenty yards from the tire, Billy rode np to the latter and inquired if he worked for old Jobn Chisum. The reply was yes, whereat Billy pulleda pistol and shot Howell through the brain, saving: ‘*Here’s your pay.’”? The others sprang to their feet, but before they could draw their pistols twoof them fell dead, killed by the rapid fire of the desperado. Drawing a bead on the remaining **boy,”? billy told him that he wanted him to tell his master that he intended to give Chisum cred- it on a bill which he considered Chisum owed him for} every time he killed one of his hands until the debt was paid, or if he killed Chisum he would consider the debt canceled. He then rode away toward the Pecos. The onlymaninthe country who is said to have nerve enouch to capture Billy is Pat Garret, who is now on his track, and will, if necessa- ry, tackle him single-handed. The Illinois Army Worm. From the Chicago Times. It isatrite saying that misfortunes never come singly, and itis onethatthe farmers of [!linois are painfully reminded of by the = ap- pearance in their oat fields of a pest that re- sembies thearmy worm and goes by that name, though substantial differences between the two are discernible, The fall wheat was seriousliv damaged by the severity of the winter, andthe spring wheat was retarded by the lateness of the season. Farmers have bad to plow up their wheat fields to a large extent and sow them with other cropsin or- der to get anything from the soil. And now comes thearmy worm to devour the oats. The worm is chiefly found in the northern part of the State, and the Times bas collected through its cor- respondents the fullest information obtaina- ble regarding the worm itself and the ravages itis committing. The rapiditv with which it works is shownin the statement of one corre- spondent thata field of forty acres of oats was destroyed in forty-eight bours. The worms appear to be governed by considera- tions that are unfathomable, for they will completely destroy one field of oats and leave another field, separated only by a rail fence, untouched. Unfortunately, however, the worms discriminate carefully between the tender and succulent stalks and those that are comparatively old and dry; the latter they avoid. Estimates of loss cannot be made with any degree of ac- curacy, as the worms are still at work, and nobody knows what they may sh before they get through. It is im- possible to tell exactly bow much harm the have done in the fields that they have vis! becat just stated, they do not dest every stalk and not till will it be krown how much the ravaged fields was too ay to suit them, Butitis certain that the damage is immenes, and in Will county it is believed that it cannot fall below a million bushels, and if the worms move faster than the oats ripen the loss will exceed that. Although oats are their favorite food the worms will not go hungry when they can find none of this grain. n default of oats they attack the young and juicy corn- stalks. The worms are nocturnal in their habits, a fact that increases the difficulty of studying their mode of operation. There seems to be little that could be done, even if more were known about their methods, and some of the farmers are cutting their oats in the hope of thus atleast saving some fodder from their fields. a Fighting an Army of Snakes. Ellenville (N. Y.) Special to N. Y. Sua. On Saturday morning Jast as Jacob Uhl, a farmer of Prospect Hill, with his seven-year- old boy, was loading his wagon with logs from a pile he had cut about a mile from his house, he heard an ominous hiss andrattie. Then a monster rattiesnake thrust his head out from between the logs, and Mr. Uhl says that he theh saw what seemed to him hundreds of the reptiles in the wood pile. He gave a leap from the pile, and telling his frightened boy to drive the oxen out to the road and wait for him, he grasped a stick and began fighting the snakes, which seemed to come from every crack in the pile of logs and from the rocky ledge behind. For three hours he foughtina broiling sun. By that time the snakes were pretty well thinned out and those that were left crawled slowly back to their den under the logs. When Mr. Ub! recovered from the exhaustion caused vy his hard fight he surveyed the field before him. There were, according to his story, twenty-three rattlesnakes, thirteen bla ck snakes, four pilots, and several adders and other snakes, making fiftv-four in all. One of the rattlers had nineteen rattles had and another had the almost in- credible number of thirtv. The others rang- ed from six to twelve or thirteen rattles apiece. Mr. Ubl says that he found the fangs of several snakes inthe tops of his boots, which were of thick cow hide. The only bite he received was from a big black snake on his leftarm. The arm is swollen and somewhat painful but the woundis not dangerous. Sev- eral years ago two hunters killed one hundred and seven snakes of different varieties in the saine spot. | Dangers of Ice Water. From the Boston Journal. An exchange styles ice water our national beverage; and if what it and other journals say of it—and what they say seems reasona- ble—it is a very barmless beverage when taken in considera»le quantities. The normal temperature of the blood is from 98° to 102° Fahrenheit. The heat of summer raises it still higher. It stands to reason that the pouring into the stomach a fluid 70° colder must be detrimental. It is stated that the drinking of considerable quantities of ice- water with the food fs specially hurtful. The stomach is then commencing its digestive ac- tion, which is necessarily attended with a high degree of heat. Consequently a larger share of the blood is called to that part of the system than usual. The taking of ice water copiously while eating arrests the whole pro- cess by reducing the temperature of the stom- ach, and produces in the end the most serious consequences. The reduced temperature of the stomach arrests digestiomand allows it to proceed only after an interval of recuperation, and then with diminished force. From this springs a disease which, under the name of ice waterdyspepsia, is becoming alarmingly common. All of the functions of the body nearly related to the assimilation of food are deranged, and the body falls a = to those diseases which are usually attributed to the beated term. Moreover the blood, suddenly driven from the stomach, is distributed among the parts of the body which have already their proper share, causing dizziness, —— of the brain and a traia of other ills. A Disguised Trotter. From the Philadelphia Times. Michael Cleary, tavern-keeper at 1354) South Second street: James Elliott, Jr., of 418 Wharton street, and another man, all of whose names are familiar to patrons of pugi- listic exhibitions, drove own the Point Breeze road towards the race course on July 6 with a unique team. The vehicle was a wheezy buckster cart. The steed that drew it seemed scarcely animated and was mud- covered and ungroomed and was harnessed almost entirely with ropes. The men (dis- mounted at Jacob Brown’s roadside inn at Old Point House road and Snyder avenue, took a drink and began pitehing quoits. Brown jeered at the steed, and, after offering for it, bet 3100 that the horse could not trot. Etliott took him up and the third man handload the stake. The party went to the race track when Brown’s eyes opened as wide as saucers wuen the supposed crow-bait steed stiffened up at the word and spun the huckster cart around the track in 2.35. Brown paid his bet, but when he heard that William Falls, another neighboring publican had been neatly *“‘done”’ out of $100 by the same ruse,he went to Mag- istrate List and swore out a warrant for Cleary, Elliottand the stakeholder for con- spiracy. Clearv and Elliott were given a hearing before Magistrate List whose audience smiled as Brown related the story of the du- plicity. Cleary was discharged and Elliott put under $600 bail. The horse is a New York trotter and is said to be used for the very pur- pose by which Brown wus swindled. Carries His Own Well With Him. from the San Francisco Chronicle. At a meeting of the California Academy of Sciences the other evening a very fine speci- men ofthe desert land-tortoise from Cajon Pass, San Bernardino county, in that State, was received. The specimen had been care- fully prepared and was as large as an ordinary bucket. The tortoiseis a native of the arid regions of Calitornia and Arizona and Prof. Kk. T. Cox, who was present, related a curious circumstance connected with it. He found on dissecting one of them that it carried on each side a membrane attached to the inner portion of the shell in Which was about a pint of clear water, the whole amount being about a quart. He was of the opinion that this water was derived from the secretions of the vciant barrel cactus on which the tortoise feeds. This cactus contains a great deal of water. The tortoise is found in sections of country where there is no water and where there is no _ vege- tation but the cactus. A traveler suffering from thirst could in an emergency supply himself with water bv killing atortoise. They are highly prized by Mexicans who make from them a delicious soup. The foxes of the des- Sert attack the tortoise and finally over- come them by dragging them at times for miics. od He Attended the Show. Uniontown (Pa.) Special Dispatch. During the progress of Jobn lRobinson’s show here Michael Crow, an old farmer of Springfield township, this county, was swin dled out of $1,150 onthe show vround. Mr. Crow Was approached by a wel)-dressed, af- fable man, who, after introducing himself as-a real estate agent, induced the unsuspecting old farmer to joinina grand speculation by Which they could make 32,500. The only con- dition imposed upon Mr. Crow was that he should advance $1,150 for sixty days. Not having that amount of money by him he went to the People’s Bank and borrowed it, giving his note at sixty days. Returning to the show the confidence man and his confeder- ates snatched the money from him and threat ened to shoot him if he uttered a word. Mr. Crow departed for his home, telling no one of the affair. Through worrying over his loss the next day he became violently sick and his family finally forced him todisclose the secret of his ills. Warrants were issued and vester- day detectives followed the Robinson show to Latrobe. A dispatch received here from that place last night states the money has been recovered. ; the ie is harves | n THE CRICKET. ——_—_—$— eer May clink his tinkl metals as he way; Or Pan may sit and pipe his breath away; Or Orpheus twang his most entrancing strain Till not a note of me ro But thou, O cricket h thy roundelay, ., Shalt laugh them all to scorn.

Their Mode of Operating—Some Inter- esting Instances of Reform. From the New York Sun. “That man is a religious tramp,” said Man- ager Bunting of the Christian Home for In- temperate Men. ‘he man had apparently just passed middle life. ‘He can sing finely, ray earnestly and exhort eloquently. I wish Tecuia talk as well as he can.”’ e “Why do you call him a religious tramp? ‘‘T will explain. There are religious tramps just the same as thereare tramps who prey upon the general public, and who are honest enough to make no pretence of religion. These religious tramps are known to every evange- list, clergyman. and philanthropist. They haunt gospel temperance meetings, make re- ligious professions in the meetings of the Women’s Christian Unions, are present at the mission rooms, an when one city fatls to afford them further pecuniary relief they start out in the track cf a temperance orator, or follow some revival movement, visitipg all parts of the country. Godisnot deceived. We are not deceived. Many just such men, however, have been seal and have led useful lives.” ‘You donot mean to ssy that these relig- ious tramps are ever sincerely converted?” ‘‘Itisafact. Because it isso these men are asked to come under Christian influence. To be sure many of thein will not reform. They love their miserable drunken life. I have taken mem into this Home, cast their ragged clothes into the ash box, given them baths, a new suit of clothes and sobered them up. Often they have secured good sit- uations, but before giving two days’ applica- tion totheir duties they have deliberately gone back to Chatham and Baxter street dens and imbibed poison to that extent that my next knowledge of themis that they are on Blackwell’s Island shoveling ashes. Men huve been through all this and then reformed, It is arare exception, bowever.”’ ‘What isthe bright side of this religious tramp picture?’ “These men have one common place of meeting. It is generally in_ the back room of a groggery ofthe lowest de- scription. I recall one particular place in Chatbam street where hundreds of them con- eregate, because [I have had occasion to snatch men fromits influence. In this place can be found men who were born tramps. The surroundings of their lives bave heen such that they could not help following a vicious course, almost from the cradle to the present. Associated with them,linked together by the common tie of misery, are young men whose parents are honorable, respectable and wealthy citizens. Drink has led them into errors, into the committal of crime. They have gone down stepby stepin the social scale, until to-day they subsist almost entire- ly on liquid poisans, mere semblances of hu- manity. Someof them have been cast off from parental recognition; in some instances they draw a specified amount of money from home atregular intervals. I have put just such men ontheir feet again, and for years past I have been blessed in knowing that they are enjoying the confidence of their families, filling good situations and leading Christian lives. One of those. men, who has been for some time leading an honest life, has a good situa- tionina business house, and looks on his past career as a terrible nightmare, was asked: “What led vou to put yourself under Chris- tian influence?” ‘Religion was far from my thougbts when I took the first step to sober up. My sole ob- ject was tosecure anew suit of clothes in place of the ‘hand-me-downs’ I was then wearing.’’ ‘*What do you mean by hand-me-downs?’’ **Hand-me-downs aré obtained in this way: A man ina temporary interval of soberness secures a new suit of clothes, say worth about +30. As he has no money to purchase more whisky, he enters a Baxter street second-hand clothingshop. Possibly he is in a druzged con- dition. He receives an old worn suit in place of his new one, and not more than a dollar or two besides. Very likely he fails to remember the place, and the recovery of his good suit of clothes wben he comes to his reason is a mat- ter of impossibility. Well, 1 had heard thai I could go to some evangelist, concoct a good story about desire for repentance, talk and pray, and I would secure my new clothes and a month’s board. I tried the plan. I did not want religion. I did not believe that I could be saved. In a few weeks I wasin my right mind. Good influences had begun their work upon me. Iwas ashamed of my de- ceit. Leconfessed my purpose to defraud. The kindness shown me, the conviction that came to methat I could reform, brought with it the determination to doso, and | can only look back at my past course with hor- ror. Another man, who had once been under Christian teachings, but who refused to be guided by them after he got away from their influence, said, referring to the means of liv- ing in tramp quarters: ‘*We manage it in va- rious ways. We te up a job on some minis- ter or generous Christian, and by the good talking of some one of our number gei a little money or some good clothes. These we turn into money. The religious women are easier to beat than any other. We win their sympa- thies bv professions of religion, and most al- ways get aid to visit our homesin some far- off locality. Then some of our number.work temporarily. They spend their money in treating, and thus one helps the other.” But these men deceive no one, it is said, although they think they are not read through and through by those who try to reform them. The Rey. Dr. Tyng, before his departure for Kurope, Was in the habit on winter mornings of giving a hot breakfast to the outcast, bringing them in from the highways. One morning he fed several bundred a good nourishing breakfast. Knowing that all of them would readily assert that they desired to give up drink, reform and become Chris- tian men, he saidtothem: “There are many of you this morning doubtless saying in your minds, ‘What a soft thing we have got on Dr. Tyng. We will all go up and beat him out of a hot breakfast, and he is welcome to keep his religion.’ Now 1 am satistied that if ] can only save one man out of this large num- ber present here this morning the object of this entertainment has been secured.” Hopes of the American Hedgeses. From the New York Sun. Various branches of the Hedges family in the United States are much exercised by a storv that they are to get a big slice ofan English estate of $250,000,000 recently decreed by the Court of Chancery to the American beirs of Sir Charles Hedges. The story is that the pee was left one hundred years ago tothe heirs of Sir Charles’ brother Joseph, who had emigrated to America, with the re- striction that the division should not be made for 100 years. Meantime the English Hed- veses held possession and use of the property. The time for the division having arrived, it is claimed that the American heirs of Joseph Hedges are to be putin possession of their inheritance when they can prove their de- scent. A number of the Hedgeses who claim to be heirs recently had a meeting at Paris Ky. Another man who claims to be an heit is Joseph Apple of Chicago, formerly a sewing machine agent in Washington. 3 : The veteran claim agent, Jobn Pitts Jayne of Murray street, was found yesterday by a Sun reporter engaged in investigating the case. Mr. Jayne said that he had found that Sir Charlies, who was Secretary of State to King William IIT., and Queen Anne, died in 1.1%, after having twice married. He had five sons and one daughter Anne. The | daughter married Sir Edwar Smijth. Sir The chiming seas may clang; and Tubal Cain ‘mission of | within the limits of Chailes Hedges’* second wife, Eleanor, dieq in Febsurry, 1835. His son by her, Jovy Hecge s, Esq., Was Secretary to the Prinve of Wales. His son by her, William Hedge, died in May, 1754. He was one of the Com. the Peace for Kent. Litt!+ ;, known abeut Joseph Hedges, the Americiy settler. There are several branches of tie Hedgeses in various parts of the United States. Some of them settled in Yates coun. tv, New York, some at Madison, N. J., in 1749, and a descendant, in 1778, is recorded as marrying Polly Wilkins of Madison. There isa long account of the Hedgeses in Littej)’, ‘‘Passaic Valley Geneuslogy.” Still another family of Hedgeses settled in Easthampton, L. I., in 1649. The Christian name of the tirst American settler issomewh:t in doubt, and Mr. Jayne has mnt yet been able to qo. termine which of the American families , nearest to the Joseph Hedges who was si, Charles Hedge:’ brother. ome TRULY A HERO. A Brave Young Fellow Who Rescued a Young Girl From Drowning. New York Special to Cincinnati Gazette. Those who went to Rockaway yesterd,, were witnesses of a thrilling scene, enicte; at the Rockaway Pier, just before the Gran! Republic was cast offfor her return trip at 4:30 o’clock p. m. The last whistle bad blown, and the cfficers were burrying the passengers aboard, many, as usual, Waiting until the last minute, causinga crush on the gang plank. In the struggle to getthrouch « voung girlof about 13 years Was pushed off into the water, and the tide going out she was carried beyond reach very rapidiv, and before the danger was realized was 100 feet from the boat. The attention of the passengers Was called bv a woman screaming, “A woman over- board!” For a few seconds it seemed us though everybody was paralyzed and nota single effort was made toward ber rescue. In the meantime the drowning child kept her left band closed over her mouth, reaching with the other to eatch something to support her. The people and deck hands began throw- ing life preservers overboard, all falling wide of their object. No boat was lowered, tio brave cficer was found ready to risk his life to save the life of the drowning girl. A sloep close by was bailed to drop her stera boatand go tothe rescue but all to no ptur- pose. The boats remained tied totheir stakes nota hundred yards from tbe spot and yet not « beart in allthe bundreds looking on had courage enough to fly tothe rescue of a drowning fellow erecture. Women screamed shame and men stared with blanched faces, It seemed as though the unfortunate girl was doomed to perish, for her strength was fast giving way andevery succeeding wave kept her unde1 longer than the one preceding i. Still she kept her band over her mouth with ber head thrown back, tryingto reach float- ing ol jects, only to fail at every attempt. At this critical moment when she appeure|! to be gasping for breath fora final str iggzle, a brave young fellow on the lower deck. not an officer, not a deckband, jumped on the rail of the boat and called out, ‘‘Ils any one going to save that child?*’ Instantly he leap- ed overboard, coat, shoes and everything on, and struck out bravely, amid the cheers of the multitude, for the iust disappearing form. Reaching her he raised her above the surface, when she appeared toempty her mouth of sea Water and take a full breath.. She grasp- ed her rescuer by the coat at the back ani he made an effort to swim to the sbore, but the tide was too strongfor him. He gave thut up and tried to keep afloat until aid should be sent to save both. The waves were con- stantiv breaking over them until they were becoming exhausted, and appeared to be on the point of going down together. It was an awiul moment when a boat manned by a single Rockaway policeman appeared on the scene, and pulling for dear life, reached them apparently justintime. Reaching out an oar to the drowning couple it was caught by the man, whenthey were pulled to the side, and with great presence of mind the al- most exhausted young girl reached up with both hands, catching the side of the boat,and clinging there until the gallant policeman could puliherin. The poor fellow who had cone to the rescue also caught the side of the boat, but seemed too fargone to climb over the side, and was watched with agonizinz and breathless interest by the vast audience that had gathered on the beach and on boats in the vicinity. When he did finally pull himself up and roll into the boat the air rang again with deafening cheer after cheer,which were continued as the rescued and rescuers reached the Grand Republic and were tinal!) landed safe onboard. It wasatruly thrill- ing scene, and one§ never to be forgotten by the thousands who witnessed it, The young girl said that ‘‘a big man delib- erately pushed her overboard to make megre room ‘or himself.”? -She was in company with her mother. She said she realized everthing that was going on ground her, and thougtt f she coulda only keep from swallowing too much water she could kee pafloat long enough for help to reach her. And that was theonl\ thing that did keep her trom going down and staying there. The young man who saved her life isa resi- dent of Brooklyn. He said this was his nint! rescue, but he added, if the boat had not reacbed him just when it didit would have been his last effort, and they would certain!y both have been drowned, for when the crowd called to him to keep the girl’s head out of the water, it was all he could do to keep hi- own out. A few more seconds would ha) finished Both, he said. —_ Georgia Convict Camps. From the New York Tribune. The Special Committee of the Georgia Lee- islature appointed to lyspect the convict camps of the State has reported upon their conii- tion In &@ Way Which leaves no room to dou! that the chain-gang system, as it is earricd on in Georgia, 1s brutal-and disevraceful. The report clearly reveals a purpose to keep well | exarveration: indeed, tl is altogether too mild and colorless when «!- luding to outrages which exist without shadow of defense. The committee receive! frequent complaints of overwork, insufticien! food, brutal punishment and compulsory |\- bor in spite of sickness. Naturally a bette condition of affairs was found in some camp- than in others, and in one or two eases the committee found little tocondemn. The al- most universal punishment is whipping on the naked body with a leather strap. It mig! bave been hoped that the committee won! close its report with a uganimous recom- mendation that the chaift-gang should be abolished, but instead of this a few sugve- tions were made from which it is not to! expected that much good can result. Natur- ally the lessees of the convicts who make + large profit from their labor would oppo» the establishment of a more decent and ht- mane system, but it is believed that a publr senliment is growing in Georgia which soone! or later will demand such a change, ee s —— Col.

The response of the eminent divine was simple and touching, srdthe eventis one long to be remembered +s all Who were present. eee ee em Correcting the Post-Dispatch. The Republican publishes under the above aption this morning the report of the com- port at the National Cotton Exchange Con- vention, which was summarized in yester- uay’s Post-DISPaTCH, as intimating care- lessness on the part of the Secre- lary of tbe Convention. That it did -0 intimate is pretty plain, especially as Mr. Hester,the secretary, felt called upon to make n Ls tompeane gd speech to the delegates in which he said his object was to show that he had not been careless, The report of the Au- (ting Committee refers to a ‘*tedious exam- ration” of the vouchers in comparison witb ine expenditures and says. ‘‘The items of receipts we had no data to gnide us, but presume they are right.’’ It concludes by suggesting a *\stem of receipts between the Secretary and treasurer, “*so that future committees may be saved the trouble that attended this.” If the ‘mart man who headlined the Republican item had read the report he would have seen that bis item was not a correction of the PosT-DISPATCH, but rather a foot-note toa report that read so ambiguously that even the secretary himselfthought it ‘“‘intimated carelessness.”’ Mr. T. W. Collins, the assistant sec- retary, evidentiy did not like the tenor of the Auditing Committee’s report, as he requested that it be not published. The Harrison Wire Works Fire. \ few moments before 1 o’clock this morn- - the Harrison Wire Works was visited by -¢cond tire which resulted in the loss of early $15,000 worth of property. The fire urred inthe north end of of the works,and vicorous fivhting onthe part of the fire- ‘nit Was notallowedto spread. The loss /sists in the destruction of the roof of the ling andslight damages done tothe ma- nery inthe annealing department and a x of tine wire onthe second floor. The se of the fire is ascribed to a defective flue ne ofthe drying furnaces. The damage ne by the fire last winter had but just been paired, and the employes bad only recently umenced work again. No particular an- xe delays are anticipated now, as re- rs will quickly be made, andthe men will “ime work againsoon.

Powers, so well-known here, and Isaac G. Baker, are rival steamboat magnates and business men on the Missouri River, the names of both being as familiar as that of Sitting Bull to all residenters in the Big Muddy valley from St. Louis to Benton and bevond. As may be remembered, on the 7th of November last, the steamer Gen. McLeod collided with the Butte on the Missouri, near Bismarck, and with such force that the for- mer was sunk. C. Powers and others, owners of the boat, claim that the collision and consequent loss was owing to gross care- lessness on the part of the officers and pilots of the Butte, and have entered a libel suicin the United States Courtin St. Paul, claiming damages to the amount of $17,24055. Satur- day Mr. Powers, who had just arrived from Montana, was arrested by a Deputy United States Marshal on whatis called **a warrant in personani in admiralty,’’ and taken be- fore Commissioner Cardozo, who required him to furnish bond in the sum of 4,0. Of course the bonds were forthcoming at once, and Mr. Powers was released, and is now on his Way home to congratulate friends and old acquaintances. A New Way of Preserving Frult. From the Alta California. A great deai of fruitis being sbipped East from Sacramento. The amount is much larger than at this time last year. Among the shipments has been a car load of assorted fruit, put up in the Dietz packing. a recently patented process. The Suisun Republican savs that the preservative agent is carbonized wheat bran, and that byit fresh fruit is pre- served from decay, so thatit can be shipped bast by slow freight and sold off as the de- mand is made for it without being compelled to sacrifice it for fear of loss. The car load shipped goes to Philadelphia. It contains grapes, plums, peaches, apricots, etc., and goes as fast freight,thouzh hereafter it is the plan to ship by slow freight, as it will reduce the charges over one-half, or from *+1,110 to $500 a car load to New York. If fruit can be packed in thisinexpensive manner and pre- served indefinitely and shipped anywhere, the business will develop. ‘Fresh peaches at Christmas and grapes at midwinter”’ are very alluring,and Mr. Dietz says that they may be had by simply packing them in wheat bran reduced to charcoal.

England. LONDON, July 22.—The young lady who was married to Lord Colin Campbell yester- day at the Savoy Chapel, Royal Strand, is the youngest daughter of Mr. Edward Maghlin Blood of Brickhill, County Clare, Ireland. The young bride is not only very handsome, but is possessed of intellectual accomplish- ments and social graces much to be ad- mired. THE LAND BILL. The clause of the land billin regard to ar- rears of rent, which passed its second ;reading inthe Commons last night, provides that, where it appears to the Court on joint appli- cation of landlord and¢enant of any holding valued atnot more than £30 yearly, that the tenant had paid the whole of such sum as the landlord was willing to accept as an equivalent of the whole rent pavable in respect of year of tenantcy previous to the passing of che act, and that when ante- cedent arrears of rent were due the Com- missioners might make in respect of such arrears an advance not exceeding a year’s rent or one-half of the antecedent arrears, Whereupon the Court should declare the holding to be charged with the repay- ment of the advance by the rent charge, pay- able half yearly during fifteen years from the date specifiea, and calculated at £8 10s yearly for every one hundred pounds ad- vanced. This charge to have priority and all arrears of rent due in respect of half to be released-absolutely. THE VOTE OF CENSURE. The vote of censure which Sir Michael Hicks Beach will move on Monday nextin the Commons is as follows: That inthe opinion of the House the course pursued by the Governmentin regard tothe rising in the Transvaal, which,so far as is yet ex- plained to Parliament, has resulted in the loss of valuable lives without vindicating the authority of the Crown,is fraught with panane to the peace and safety of Her Majesty’s - minions in South Africa,and fails to provide for the fulfillment of obligations contracted by England toward European settlers and the natives of Transvaal. Rathbone, Liberal, will move an amend- ment as follows: That the House, believing that continuing the war in Transvaal would not have advanc- ed the honor or interests of England, ap- proves the steps taken by the Government to effect a peaceful settlement, and feels conti- dent every care will be taken to guard the in- terests of the natives, to provide full liberty and equal treatment for the entire white population and to promote harmony and good will among the various races of South Africa. BRADLAUGH., LONDON, July 22.—Bradlaugh has sum- moned a meeting of his supporters in Traval- var Square for the evening of the 2d of August to make an orderly protest against his ex- clusion from the House of Commons. IROQUOIS. Troqtiols will not meet any Goodwood en- gavemeuts, but will be reserved for the St. Leger stakes. IRISH PAPERS. LONDON, July 22.—The Standard reprints from the United Irishman Sunday Dem- ocrat, Imsh World and the Irish Ameri- can a column and a half of extracts in praise and recommendation of the outrages against England. The article is headed **lhe Science of Dynamite.” The Standard prefaces its article as follows: Whatever the Govern- ment of the United States may think on the subject, the leaders of the Irish agitation in Ameiica regard themselves in a state of declared war with England. BRADLAUGH LOSES. LONDON, July 22.—In the case of Clarke against Bradlaugh before a-special jury, an action to recover £500 penalty from the de- fendant for having sat and votedinthe House of Commons without taking the Parliamen- tarv oath, the jury rendered a verdict for the plaintiff. The only question forthe jury to determine was whetber the writ in this suit was actually issued after or before Bradlaugh voted in the House. ‘s France. Paris, July 22.—The weather is moderate and the scarcity of water continues. There is alsoa short supply of water at Bordeaux, Lyons and Rouen. A BIG FIRE, LONDON, July 22.—A dispatch from Bor- deaux says fife has begun ina large warehouse here. Eighty thousand casks of wine have been destroyed... The fire is still raging.

Rars- pailreferred to the Vendee Railway as an instance of the scandal- ous jobbery thus promoted, and ssid such practices were common under the reign of Louis Phillipe and the empire, but the Republic ought not to countenance them. Russia.

Returns From the White House After an Anxious Visit. Anecdotes Regarding the President’s Mood in His Sick Chamber. The brother-in-law of President Garfield, Mr.Camden O. Rockwell,arrived home yester- day from Washington, where he.has been ever since the Monday afterthe shooting by Guiteau. Mr. Rockwell left as soon as possi- ble upon receipt of the news of the shooting and bas been unremittent in his at- tentions at his brother-in-law’s bedside. Mr. Rockwell was found at bis residence on Gamble street and kindly accorded the re- porter of the PosT-DISPATCH a most inter- esting interview. Mr. Rockwell says that his trip was one of the most painful suspense. Early on his route the telegram arrived reporting the President’s death. It was under this im- pression he remained until reaching Vin- cennes, Ind., where the conductor told him that that report was false and that there were chances ofthe President’s recovery. “‘Inever in my life saw a man who looked more likean angel,’ said Mr. Rockwell, feelingly, ‘than the conductor who gave me this informa- tion. Indeed the railroad men all along the line were most kind and considerate and pro- vided me with al! the latest news. When I arrived at Washington evervthing was in a terrible ctate of confusion. It was with the greatest difficulty that I obtained admission to the White House, and then only after sev- erai recognitions by members of the family. One can have no idea of tbe strict surveil- Jance maintained there during the opening excitement, the most prominent men of the Nation being refused admission. Mr. Rockwell spoke with great feeling of the noble conduct of Mrs. Garfield and the children, who showed their tine training and good qualities most decidedly in the hour of sadness and desolation. **How about that quarrel between the phy- sicians?’ **Some of the statements and accounts were ridiculously colored and exaggerated, There was of courseu great strife and rivalrv be- tween the doctors to vet the case, there being between thirty and forty of them at the White House almost immediately after the shooting. The President’s wishes were consulted and he said he wished the case to ve in the bands of Dr. Bliss. “Accordingly that able surgeon selected his assistants with a special view to their experi- enceinthetreatment of cun-shot wounds: Surgeon General Barnes, Surgeon Major Woodward and Dr. Reyburn, whose skill was based upon the broadestand most complete experience. Some ofthe doctors were im- portunate but there were no _ disgraceful squabbles as reported. As for Dr. Bliss he has been at the White House night and day since the shooting and his attendance could not have been more faithful and self- sacrific- img. The other surgeons were equally attentive and the man- agement of that part of the affair was most fortunate.’’ **Some advices were received in various channels throwing discredit upon the official bulletins, at Jeast saying that they were colored for the purpose of keeping up the hopes of the people- Did you note anything of the kind’’’ **No: the bulletins were strictly true and correct. As an evidence,take for instance Monday week when bis fever was the highest. There were no false hopes set forth and it was known that the President was then ina very eerious condition. It did look very gloomy at that time.’’ **How about the refrigerating process’ “That of Mr. Brown’s, the private secret- ary, had to be done away with, as it created an unhealthy dampness in the sick chamber. Another process was used with better effect: that was forcing air off a tank of ice bv means of an eight-horse power engine: this uses some-four or five tons of iceaday. At first the President was the only one who did not feel the effects of the altered temperature; but by qualifying it with air by opening a far window, the re- suit was immediately beneficial. There is anotherenyine and tank in construction of double the power, which will answer the pur- sesadmirably. You can say that I left the *resident caining rapidiv in beartiness and strength. As to his appetite and food I need say nothing, as they have been matters of every day recountal. by the way,’’ contin- ued Mr. Rockwell, “I have in my pocket the first dispatch dictated by the President since he was shot. Here itis:” A copy was made of this historical docu- ment Which was as follows: EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1. Mrs. C. ©. Rockwell, 2624 Gamble street, st. Louis: The President desires me to sav that Cam. left for home at 10:50 this morning via the Baltimore and Ohio Road, andthat ne has ween of yreat assistance in nursing. All send love. O. L. Jubb. Mr. Rockwell has a handsome coilection of photographs of the attending surgeons, also several interesting pictures of Gen. Garfield in different attitudes. ANECDOTES. “The President is not aliowed to see any newspapers and no one is allowed to talk with him on current topics. Ile was very shrewd, bowever, and a casual remark would be turn- ed to account when the next visitor came in. He heara of the election of Warner Miller, and would frequently ask, ‘Isthere any news from Albany?’ “Hle was very anxious to see Blaine. Frequently he would say, =m see Jim Blaine—can’t I see old Jim ine? andthen his wife would make the niry and return a-nevative response. Mr. akling called once and Mr. Arthur fre- ently. People teel very deeply for the lat- +r, Who Was in tho most painful position of any manin America and showed it unmis- takably. “Mr. Schumaker, the Express manager, sent the President a fine Alderney cow which fur- nished rich, pure milk, Which was very grat- ifying to him. Some one remarked that the cow Was suffering badly fromthe swarms of flies that settled upon ber. ‘Oh, that will never do,’ he remarked with considerable emphasis; ‘you must get Cam. to see that she is not annoyed in that way.’ “When be heard of President Hinsdale, of Hiram Coilege, being in Washington and preaching a sermon, he showed great rezrets and for the time seemed to think hiimself lighted. *What, Ilinsdale here” he would remark, ‘and not come to see me’ and then ap explanation was in order. Concerning the strict rule observed regarding visitors it is moted that Secretary Blaine bas not seen the President for two weeks, and this privilege is foregone on accountofit being a distinctive one Which could not be accorded to the other members of the Cabinet: indeed the utmost case ie exercised and the iprivileged ones out- side ofthe physicians might be counted on ene’s fiacers. “President Garfield has had no religious advice or attendance, it hav- fing been deemed imprudent to introduce any clergyman at his bedside for fear of a de- Pressing and counteracting effect. Indeed, the General’s great hopefulness has been the ebief element which has carried him through, and it would have been very dangerous to have thrown cold water overtbis by the sugges. He said he Was scratching for his life in his own way, and that from the first he bad had no doubts ae to ultimate recovery. “During bis confinement,’ said Mr. Ro«k- well, *he bas lost but twenty-five pounds, a com rative trifiefor aman of bis size and Secretary ‘l want P.. t.’ Y "The fore'gnu ministers and otbers distinguish- ain aaeee in their attentions, a pleasant feature of the | ote ed foreigners were most solicitous and kind Mr. Rockwell waspparently worn out and weary with watching and travel, and after thanking bim for his kindness the Faber- pusher withdrew. ASPIRITUALISTIC CAMP. A Community of Mediums Gathered in Camp at Neshaminy Falls. PHILADELPHIA, July 21.—The Spiritualists’ camp at Neshaminy Falls presents a strange appearance. With a féw exceptions the ma- jority of the inhabitants are professed Spirit- ualists. Several are Jecturers, trance and business mediums, and a few are slate writ- ers. Aliassert that they receiye their in- structions from teachers and none of them appear to have any particular faith in the alleged powers of the others. The women are generally well in their mid- dle age, and of comfortable size rather than withered and crone like. Most of them ap- pear to be widows or antique maidens, and each is accompanied by a familiar in the shape of another widow or ancient spinster, who acts asa sort of umbroe to her friend. The male medium, are young men who show every sign of thorough appreciation of the spirits’ kindness in having put them in the way of such an easy task, and who will prob- ably continue to be happy until an over- grasping desire on the pocketbooks of somebody leads them into the clutches of an unnaturally prejudiced judge. Young and pretty maidens ef the fair sex are not represented. The business, however, seems to pay, and perhaps of ali creeds the prophets of spiritism know best how to draw on the pe ee of their followers. Among the latterit is a little surprising to meet with so many apparently intelligent personsin the different walks of life. One of the fervent believers in the doctrines is Prof. Clayton, a gentleman who is widely known ag a contributor to magazine liter- ature and who was a schoolmate and room companicn of President Garfield. In fact many of the most earnest supporters of spiritualism are gentlemen of mature age who figure as scientists and whose respecta- bility is undoubted. A LOVER’S VENGEANCE. BY HELEN HARCOURT. “Say it again, dear! Let me hear once more the blessed words I have longed for so long, and never dare hope I should listen to. Say it, Jittle one'!Say, ‘Charley, I love you!’” ay Morris raised her eyes shyly to those dark, eager ones looking down so tenderly upon her, and a vivic blush spread over the cheek aud brow, as in low, faltering tones, she whispered the words her newly-betroth- ed desired to hear; and Charley Powell clasped her close to his heart, as he bent his handsome head, until his lips met those dear ones that had just pledged their owner to be his wife, cherished and loved and honored, he told bimeelf, as never wife had been be- fore; and he meantit, too, in all sincerity, for he was a man to keep hisword. They had grown up _ together, these two: their fathers had been intimate friends and business partners in the Eastern States, and, when fortune failed then they had come together to California and settled wi ranches within twenty miles of each other. “To you know, May,’’ Charley said, pres- ently, ‘‘I really thought vou cared more for Dave Hulstine than for me? Heis rich and I am yoor; he is good-looking enough, and has certainly done all he could to make you fond of bim.”? ‘‘You must have a poor opinion of my judgment or taste, Charley Powell,’”? said May, indignantly, *‘if you suppose that for an instant! I shrink from the man as I would from a serpent! I believe he is a thorouzhly bad man—a man capable of any meanness or treachery. I should despise himifI did not fearhim. But come—we must go back to the house. It willbe time for dinner directly, and papa will be wondering where we are.”’ Arm inarm the happy young couple turn- ed their steps toward the handsome dwelling that rose proudly amid a grove of beautiful trees, and as they disappeared a man crept stealtbily from amidst the dense bushes. “Capable of any meanness or treachery, am I, proud girl?’ he muttered, shaking his clenched fistin the direction the two had taken. ‘*Aye, and capabie of vengeance, too! so this is the reward of months of devotion, to be cut out by a milk-and-water puppy! By heaven, May Morris shall be mine yet,in spite of him! Keep cool, Hulstine—keep cool, and put on your thinking cap. Let me see’? This fellow goes home this evening by moonlight— twenty miles, in a loaded Wagon. He will have totravel slowly. His man Collins is with him. That is rather unfortunate—for the man. There will be two for me to dispose of, instead ofone. I can get hold of two stout fellows to assist me—men who dare not dis- obey my orders, So much for prying out your fellow-creatures’ secrets. May Morris, it had been better for you that you had not scorned the love of a man Whv isnot used to be despised, and better for Charley Powell if you had scorned him as well.”’ Once more his hand was uplifted in a threatening gesture, and then Hulstine mounted the horse from which he had alicht- ed but a short time before with far different feelings, a proud contempt for the young man he had regarded as being like a_ brother to May, anda self-complacent confidence in his own success in winning her for his wife. Chance had led to his overhearing the con- versation that had wrought so suddena re- volution in his ideas; and with a man of bis ungovernable passions and want of prinuci- les the consequences to those who crossed is path were certain to be serious. That night, as the moon looked down in all her calm, glorisus beauty upon one ofthe Wildest mountain passes that even grand Cal- ifornia can boast of, a man stepped out from amidst the shadows cast by the overhanging rocks, and gazed earnestly down the road. Seeing nothing, he knelt down and bent his eartothe ground, rising, aftera tew mo- ments, with an ejaculation of pleasure; then he went back into the shadows, where two other men awaited him. ““[ hear the rattle of wheels,” he said. ‘*‘Be ready and don’tforget my orders. Re- member that no blood is to be shed just here. ‘This is the best spot forthe capture; but the road is too much traveled to make it safeto conceal a corpse anywhere near. Makea blunder,” he added, sternly, “and you will vet lead instead of gold as a reward. Have you got the chains all ready?” “Yes, sir, and we’ve got your orders all by heart,t00. We don’t make no mistakes, my mate and me.’ **See to it that you do not, or it will be the worse for you. Here are the masks. There is no need that our faces should be recogniz- ed. Attention, now, and remember !”’ Nearer and nearer came the rattle of Wheels toiling along the steep mountain track, and as at length a heavily loaded wag- on, drawn by two stout horses, came in sight, Dave Hulstine’s eyes glowed with an evil light as he once more turned toward his com- paumnons., **Cross the road, now; quick, Bob, in the shadow of that cloud passing over the moon, and recollect, both of you, not a sound is to be given, not a word spoken. Spting out on them as they come abreast. Knock them down and fasten their Kands behind them with the short chains. Put the long chains around _ their necks, then tumble them into the road, secure the chaise tothe wagon, and whileI drive you keep Watch on them, and see that t ey follow quietly. By Jove!” he muttered, with a harsh chuckle, “it will be a practical illus- tration of the way the heroes of olden times led their captives at their chariot wheels Wonder how my good friend Charley will relish being dragged along by a chain?’ Not pastocuen ;, | fancy, even though he does not ‘nown as I do that the foot of a precipice is his destination. A good idea of mine, that. There is little chance of the body ever being found, and if it is, who isto say that he did not fall over himself? Capital, capital! My revenge will be complete, and the road to May Morris left open for me without theleast risk on my part. Itis rather a pity about Collins. Ihave no grudge against bim; but ashe is with his master he must go, too. Glorious, glorious revenge !’’ Lexulbed his hands in diabolical glee; 's the wagon came abreast of his hiding- nee hoot of an owl gave the s for the assault. Five minutes later ar.ey Powell and his servant Collins were helpless captives. So sudden and ,unexpected had been the attack upon them that there had been no epportunity for resistance. In fact,’ before either of the men realized that hostil- ities were intended, they had been cast prone upon their backs and their hands secured be- hind them. It was in vain that young Powell vehemently demanded to know the meaning of the outrage thus perpetrated upon him; not a word could be drawn from his captors. In silence a chain was cast about his neck and that of his companion in misfortune; and then the wagonto which they were secured moved on, compelling them to follow as best they might. For several miles the party proceeded along the rough road in this strange style, one man driving, two chained to the wagon like dogs, two others marching behind, their rifles ready for instant use. But after awhile the order of march changed; the driver, tired of his post, summoned one of the latter to take his place, while he with a fierce chuckle, mye ge! transferred the chain that bound one of the prisoners tothe wagon to his own hand, and then the strange a al sion moved on again. Sorely was Charley Powell perplexed bythe strange predica- mentin which he so unexpectedly found him- self; and as he trudged on in hot indignation, the cold iron chafing alike his sensitive flesh and proud spirit, his brain wearied itself in trying to find some explanation for it all. He did not know that he had an enemy, and this assault proved that he had, and a most bitter one; and after the chain had been removed from the wagon to the hand of one of his cap- tors Charley felt that the occasional vicious and unnecessary jerks that he received came direct from the hand of this secret foe, thougk even yet he did not recognize Dave Hulstine, so well was he disguised. But to one thing Charley speedily made up his mind amidst his perplexities, and that was to effect his escapeif it were at all possi- ble, as he believed it to be; for his hands, though confined behind his back, were not idle and his busy fingers discovered that the links of the chain that bound them were made of strong, flexible wire. He had seen his captors use pincers toclasp the links together and later he recognized the chain as part of the wire chain of a threshing machine, such as wasto befound in every ranche therea- bouts. So hurried had been the order to 1aarch on after the capture that none of Chariey’s as- sailants remembered to search him for con- cealed weapons, or perhaps they relied on the chains to render them useless if he possessed them; however it may be, certain it 1s that our hero’s pistol remained safely hidden be- neath his coat. But how to get free, so as to call this trusty friend to bisaid? Again the busy fingers, their touch intensified by the perilous posi- tion of their owner, answered the question: One of the links of the piece of chain was imperfectly closed, and Charley succeeded in slipping down another link to the opening, and then, using it as a lever, pried it further open. The links slipped apart and had all but fallen upon the ground, only that Charlev still kept his hands beneath the friendly coat- tails that had screened the work of his strong fingers. He was biding his time; and more patieatly new that be was freeto start away when he _ chose. At the moment of slipping the links apart the _ party were passing through a deep cutin the rocks with no chance of escape on either side. But directly the track came out on a wider space with dense forests on both sides, and now was Charley’s time. His captor gave another of his savage jerks upon the chain around his neck, and on the instant our hero’s revolver gleamed in the moonlight and a bullet struck the wretch to the ground. Turning sharply on his heel as a ball whis- tled by his head Charley again presented his revolver—this time at the man whose careless watch in the rear had allowed of his escape— but the pistol missed fire. Almost simulta- neously a bullet from the driver’s pistol] grazed his arm and a sharp blow from be- bind him sent bis revolver high in the aur. A quick leap to one side revealed the fact that the man his bullet had struck dewn bad been cniy stunned, and was now his third assail- ant. Underthe circumstances there was nothing left for Charley to do but to abandon the unfortunate Collins who was vainly drag- ging at the chains that held him prisoner, A powerful blow of the fist sent one of the as- sailants across the road, and shaking himself free of the man who held him, whom he re- cognized as the leader, and who he felt sure was his personal but still unknown foe, Charley Powell sprang away into the forest heedless of the shots that were sent after him. Hampered by the long chain that hung from his neck, he paused, after a while, to wind it around his waist, andin so doing became aware that, contrary to his ex- pectations, he was being followed, and that too by one who had already stolen so closely upon him that there was no time for escape. Charley was standing on rather an odd look- ing stone, large, oblong, smooth and flat as a table, and as he remar«ed, evenin that mo- ment of excitement it seemed strangely un- steady. Ile was wondering about it in a sort of half bewildered way while his nimble fingers secured the chain around his waist, when he became aware of the pursuit by the whizzing of a bullet past his ears, immedi- ately succeeded by a fierce onset on the part of his determined foe. And then com- menced asilent desperate struggle; up and down, turning, twisting, bending and crack- liny of branches and dried leaves, and the hard breathing of the combatants alone disturbing the silence of the night. But suddenly there arose another sound, a stone grating and rat- thing, a heavy thud, and a smothered shriek, and then silence—perfect silence—as_ the moonlightstreamed down into a deep, dark hole that opened into the earth, where a few ——— before that strange, flat stone had een. And down at the bottom of it—some twenty feet below the level of the ground—Charlev Powell sat, looking up toward the dim rays of ligbt and feeling cautiously with his hands, seking some clue to the kind of place into which he had fallen. He was bruised and shaken, but not really injured; but his foe had been less fortunate. The heavy ston@had fallen upon him, strik- ing him across the back of the neck and eaus- ing instant death. And then, removing the musk to see if the man were really dead,Char- ley Powell, with a great shock, at last reecog- nized Dave Hulstine, and instinctively divined the cause of his sudden and bitter enmity. When the long night came to an end the ravs ofthe sun revealed a strange, weird scene, and Charley knew that he had unwittingly discovered one of those curious catacombs wherein the native races of ages long gone by had buried their noted dead. The cave was evidently an artificial one, of a quadrangular shape, and seated in a single row around the sides were the skeletons—some almost entire —of fifty warriors. Instruments of war and the chase lay seattered around, some of iron, some of stone, and a fine, impalpable dust covered the floor, all that remained of the furs and robes with which the cave had once, no doubt, as the custom was, been carpeted, Amidst all these strange, mouldy relics of the past Charley came suddenly upon some ob- jects uninjured by the touch of time. that caused bim to forget for the moment his un- pleasant position in an Indian catacomb, with only a dead man and fleshless skeletons for companions, and made his brain throb and whirl with the throng of wild ideas they con- —— up—thoughts of unbounded wealth, uxury and comfort, fur the dear one who was to share his life henceforth, and for tbose other dear ones who had cared for them both from childhood upward— the two precious mothers and fathers. For lying beside the crumbling bones were hundreds of ornaments of solid gold, many of them those twisted circlets known to antiquarians as terques, A number of these weighed two pounds each, and in these alone was an ample fortune for the finder. But these ornaments were only & part, and aminor part of the whole treasure in that wonderful treasure-house. In the cemer of the catacomb was a massive kettle that had no doubtbeen used as a sacrificial censer for burning incense; it was, as after measurements proved, two feet high and two feet and a-halfin circumference, besides be- ing very thick. So heavy was it that Charley found st ssupcssille to iif: it; and, wonderful REMARKABLE LETTER THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, February 12, 1881. For the first time in life I am induced to give atestimonial. Noticing in some paper anad- vertisement of Dr. Scott’s Electric Hair Brush, I sent $3 for one, and find it indeed a remark- able brush. My wife has for years suffered with headaches. The brush cures them at once. Several friends have used it for head- aches, and it has never failed. My wife was also getting prematurely bald, but the brush has entirely stopped the falling nair and start- ed a new growth. I use it to re- move dandruff anda it works like a charm. Five times the cost would not buy my brush if Iconld not replace it. To-day I bought of McAlmont, druggist, of this place, two brushesto send to friends who have tried mine and requested me to buy for them. Col. Ponder, Mayor ef Walnut Ridge, was attacked bya severe case of sick headache while atmy house. He was ver sick. My wife proposed to try the brush,whic he finally consented to do, with no faith init, however. In three months he said he never felt better in his life, and directed me to send him a brush. Ihave authorized McAlmont, the druggist, to use my name in recommend- ing it. wes Yours truly, GEORGE THORNBURGH, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Little Rock, Ark.

For You, Madam, Whose complexion betrays some hamiliating po gen tion, whose mirror tells you that you are Tanned, Sallow and disfigured in countenance, or have Eruptions, Redness, Roughness or unwholesome tints of —— we say use Hagan’s Magnolia Balm. Itisa delicate, harmless and delightfal article, — the most natural and entrance ing tints, the artificiality of we = oo can detect, and which soon becomes pere manent if the Magnolia Balm is judiciously used. to relate, this massive kettle was made of goli—so pure asto bend, rather than break, beneath a blow. sefore long, however, he was brought sud- denly back toasense of the present bythe discharge of a rifle, followed by a shout. He hesitated at first whether to reply, lest it might be Hulstine’s late companions search- ing for him; buta repetition of the shout, still nearer, relieved all uneasiness on that score. The voice belorg to Collins without a doubt. Joyfully Charlev answered, andin a few moments the honest fellow, his face all aglow with delight and amzeiment, was peering down into the deep hole, at whose base stood the master he baa feared he should never see again. A few words explained his presence. After Hulstine had darted away in pursuit of his escaped captive his two confederates had remained quietly by the wagon, their con- versation expressing a decided dislike tothe expedition in which Hulstine had compelled them to join. They waited there until day- light: then, convinced that some mishap had befallen their employer, they released Collins from hischains, and, still disguised by their masks, plunged intothe forest. Left aione, Collins had resolved to search at once for his master, first loosing the tired, patient horses from the wagon, and securing them where they could find crass and water. His search had scarcely begun before it ended, for the spot where the Indian ecata- comb had been so strangely discovered was very near the road—so near, in fact, that Collins was less than an hour in going back and bringing the wagon to the nearest point possile. Soon, by the aid of ropes, Chirley Powell stood once more safe and free in the beautiful sunlight, while at his feet lay the body of the man who had sought to take his brave young life away, and, instead, had en- dowed him with a spiendid fortune to be- stow on his bride. The already well loaded wazon received all the smaller gold ornaments, and afew hours later it drewup at the door of Charley Powell’s home, only, however, to discharge its load, change horses andreturn with all speed to the catacomb, where all that remain- ed of Dave Hulstine was conveyed to his house and delivered to the only being—a faithful sister—who mourned his death. An- other visit to the strange treasure house left itshorn of its wealth of gleaming metal, Which, after being melted down into “bricks,” was disposed of by its happy pos- sessor for no less a sum than $200,000! One-fourth of this sum Charley, settled on May’s father and another fourth on his own, and then, next but not least, the faithful Collins was presented with a nice little ranche, with a comfortable house and a well- stocked barnyard, thus enabling him to ful- fillatonce an almost hopeless dream of his and ‘*marry a wife.’’ And thus ,‘out of Dave Hulstine’s thirst for revenge on one who had done him no wrong, grew, instead of barm, wealth and happiness not for that one only, but for all dear to him. There has been in Chicago a rise in the price of pies, and consequently there is a good deal of American suffering in that locality.

The work of righting wrongs and making peace in the Police Departmentis progress- ing ata livelvrate. Officer Broderick, who was reduced from asergeantcy,was dismissed at the last meeting. Another officer who spoke disparagingly of the Board of Police Commissioners was fined. Yesterday Ser- geant Kennedy of the Second District was suspended until the matter comes up before the Board. The mode of promotions is the questicn that will next be examined into and ebhanged. It is a well known fact for several years the real worth and ability of a man has never cut the slightest figure when a pro- motion wasin order. Outside influence has been the balancing power and the patrol- man’s superior officers, were never once con- sulted about the subject’s fitness. ‘*Here- after,’’ said Chief Kennett while speaking on this subject, “information concerning the Police Department will be looked for in the Department, and if it cannot be found there it will scarcely be found outside of it.”’ “How soon will the existing vacancies be filled?’ “I can’t say yet; there are several vacant sergeantcies and two detective places. These latter will not be filled, however, until next October ,for there is not work for the present force.’’ The policy in the future will be to have each Captain report a number of eligible candidates for any position which will be filled from the whole memberthus selected. The fitness of any man for certain work is best known to the Captain, and on his reports promotions will largely dependin the future in the Police Department. A sergeant will shortly Se sent down to the First District from the central portion of the city. The selection has not yet been made, however. Vacancies Lake Minnetonka and How to Get There.

At about 4 o’clock this morning Officer Tom Allen while patroling his beat on Fourth treet near St. Charles, bad suspicions that all was not right at 50:3 N. Fourth street,occupied by the well known millinery firm of Kaufman, Altheimer &-Cohn, and examination proved that water was dripping from one of the up- per floors. The private watchman was not to be found and QGfficer Allen, procuring a lad- ber, entered the second stery window and found that was pretty well fieoded. Going to the third oor he found that the water came from an over- flooded water basia into whick a full stream was running from the pipe. it looked as though seme one had stopped up the basin, turned on the cock,avd as some one was using the water below left it there. Water flowed very freely in that vicinity after 7 p. m., and the result was that by 4 a.m. there was an indefinite number of gations soaking the floor and reaching the tloors below. Quantities of valuable ostrich feathers, ribbons, velvets and other millinery goods werein the way and twere soaked with water. Odicer Allen went work and by bard Jabor for several hours Bieceeded in yetting a good portion of the “oe ock out of danger, thus preventing a very rious loss.

Pros’ rations From the Heat—Death Rec- ord—Infant Mortality—The Mercury. The sky was obscured with clouds almost all day, thus shutting out the terrific heat of the sun and causing a very decided iowering inthe temperature. At noon ta-day the tt ermometer marked 85° and there was a gentle, refreshing breeze blowing, all more or less the result of the heavy rains which have pre- yailed elsewhere. Yet the hot weather of Wednesday and Thursday brought ina big harvest of sunstrokes and heat prostrations, and to-day the listof infant mortality has been much larger than for several days pre- ious. , Vennor’s postal card, published elsewhere, shows that the prophet has hititagain and he has been kind enough tosend us a cool wave. After the 27th inst. he predicts 4 less- ening inthe mercury which, no doubt, all in St. Louis can stand with resignation.

A Daughter Arrives From Toronto Only to Learn Her Moth- er’s Shame. ‘‘Your Purity is My Pride,” the Excla- mation of the Parent. Last night a young woman arrived on one of the trains at the Union Depot, and after alighting looked anxiously about the waiting room evidently expecting some one. Disap- pointed in her expectations she ordered a hack and told the driver to go to Emma Bap- tiste’s, No. 705 Christy avenue. The young woman, though not remarkably pretty, has certainly a pleasing face and good form. The driver asked her if she knew where she was going. The girl took it as a piece of impudence on the part of the Jehu and repliedthat she did. The house is one of the most notorious houses of prosti- tution in St. Louis and the passenger was a ladyin every particular. Tuking these two facts into consideration. it was no wonder that the driver asked the question. Sheis quick and intelligent and has very little traces of colored blood inher. She deter- mined to visit the house and investigate for herself. When she arrived at No. 705 Christy avenue she was satisfied of her position and at once ordered to be driven tothe Police headquarters. Atthe Central Station she told Capt. Tom Fruchte that her name was Ella Papin and that she hid just arrived from Toronto, Canada, on a visit to her moth- er, Emma Baptiste, whom she discovered was the proprietress of a house of ill- fame. She asked that she be allowed to remain until she could go back home to her foster mother at Toron- to. Early this morning Emma _ Baptiste drove to the residence of John J. Martin, her attorney, and then told him the following story: She had livedin Toronto, and fifteen years ago left her six-year old daughter in charge of a woman named Papiin and came to St. Louis. She had opened a correspond- ence with her daughter as soon as the child grew up. She was married in St. Louis and by her second bustand had aaother daughter who was living with her. Ashorttime agoshe wrote to ber eldest daughter inviting her to pay her a visit to St. Louis. It was agreed, and tue girl was to telegraph when she would arrive. Yesterday evening she was to reach this city, and Emma Baptiste drove down to the depot in her own carriage. By some misunder- standing she left before the train arrived, and in this way the girl was oblged to hire a carriage herself to reach her mother’s house, the number of which she had Jearned from the letters she had receiv- ed. When she learned that Elia had been at the house and had gonetothe Four Courts she drove there and saw her daughter, out did not speak to her. When Mr. Martin heard the story and received many assur- ances thatit was not the intention of the mother that her child should followin her footsteps he called on the police and arranged that the daughter and mother should meet at his office opposite the Four Courts, the former in company with a police officer. This morning they met. The woman clasped the girl in her arms and kissed ber repeatedly. “I have a mother’s love for you,”’ said the woman, ‘‘and did not intend that you should ever know the life I was following. I had arranged that you should stop at a respectable house at Twen- ty-eighth and Clark avenue where I could visit you. Your purity is my pride.’? The girl said to a reporter, ‘‘I recognized my mother as soon as I saw her, but I did not know she was leading the life that she is, or I should never have come to St. Louis.” Mr. Martin suggested that as the girl did not desire to stay in the citv it would be bet- ter to pay her expenses back to Toronto. Mrs. Baptiste asked hertoride with her in her barouche tothe house she intended to re- main at, but the girl unhesitatingly refused. She will probably return to Toronto as soon as possible. Appealed. Mr. John Fisher, of the commission firm of Fisher & Howard, was arraigned in the First District Police Court to-day ona ebarge of violating the city ordinances in relation to occupying the wharf. Mr. Fisher said he had hay on the wharf awaiting shipment. He Was prevented from moving it by the extreme heat which rendered laborers scarce. He said that he had been arraigned twice before, and both times discharged, as the harbor- master did not have a_ particle of proof to sustain the charge made. He was inclined to think that the prosecution was malicious on the part of Harbor Master Ford, as he said he had never before experienced any trouble with the gentlemen that had oc- cupied that position. A case was established to the satisfaction ofthe Court and a fine of +10 imposed. The defendant said he would never pay that fine and at once filed an ap- peal bond, EAST ST. LOUIS. Charies Green was assessed $3 and costs, by Squire Graney this morning for disturbing the peace. James Shubert, a butcher from the Stock Yards, was arrested last night for being drunk on the streets. A large dirk knife was found on his person when searched at the Station, but he was releasedthis morning fer want of prosecation.

A bitter rivalry exists between Alburn and a man running opposition wagons which has led to spirited | quarrels on both sides of the river. Alburn was released on bail and the case set for hear- ing before Squire Graney to-morrow. FOUR COURTS BREVITIES. Wm.

Negotiations Awaiting the Stockholders’ Meeting in September. The statement in this morning’s Republi- can that the big bridge will on the Ist of August pass into the possession of the Mis- sonri, Pacific and Wabash Roads is unfound- ed, and is denied by all those who ought to know about the matter. A Post-DISPATCH reporter called upon sev- eral parties this morning and they all stated that the date was wrong. and that Jay Gould and his combinations would have to wait much longer peforethey accomplished any- thing in that direction. The nature of all the statements made is embodied in the fol- lowing talk with Mr. William Taussig, gen- eral manager of the Bridge Company. The conversation opened with the remark that the Republican had _ stated that Jay Gould had captured the bridge, and would take possession on August 1. ‘‘That is a mistake,’’ replied Mr. Taussig. “There are no negotiations pending, except the lease for 999 years to the Missouri Pacific aml the Wabash roads. The terms have been published.. ‘*T’be roads mentioned guarantee us the in- terest on the bonds,5 per cent onthe tirst preferred stock, payable in one year, and 3 per cent on the second preferred stock, pay- able in three years. This lease cannot take effect until the consent of all the stockholders is obtained. A meeting for that purpose will be held in this office on the 22d of September next. Until after that time there will be no change or transfer.”’ **It is also stated that there will be several changes in the management of bridge af- fairs?” “The contemplating lease of the bridge and tunnel by the roads on the west side of the river bas no other significance but that of making the introduction of reforms in the management and handling of trains possible which otherwise would be entirely impracticable. Itis a measure of economy and “0»nothing else. The ownership of the bridge. and tunnel does not change, and there has been no sale or transfer of any of the properties. The organization, officers and owners remain the same without change. You can state authoritatively that the policy and management will continue as heretofore; that is, that the pro- erty will be managed on its merits and not in the interest only of the leasing lines: that al] the roads will be treated = alike and yeceive the same consideration as to rates, service and tender of facilities that it has been our policy to ex- tend to them all alike ever since the bridge opened for traffic. You can also say that this lease will enable the bridge more than ever to be managed and operated in the interest of St. Louis. We will be able to turn traffic in this direction that has sought other outlets heretofore, because of the indifference of roads who had other Trans- Mississippi lines in which they were equally interested and by which traffic and trade were carried over other channels around St. Louis. Alto- gether, after a_ little while, I think that we will be able, as a result of this transaction, to offer to the roads and to the public better ser- vice and better facilities than ever before.” So that the rumor, when sifted, amounts to this, that the lease, tne terms of which were long ago in the Post-DiIspaTcn, will be made after the 22d of September, if the a consent at the meeting on that ay, . RESTORED TO HIS FATHER. An Abducted Italian Boy Taken From a Padrone. Last night Deputy Marshal Joshua Sabini returned from Indianapolis with Antonio Mussi, the Italian boy who was stolen from his home at Naples, Italy, by Pietro Catelano, a padrone, in 1873, and has since traveled all over the United States with the boy. The business of the padrone, who brings young boys and girls tothis country and travels _ through the country playing music and beg- ging for the benefit of their guardian, increased during the past few years. Through the efforts of Mr. Sabini a number of Italians in St. Louis have recovered their children. Mussi left Naples eight vears ago and had not seen his ‘child from that date until yesterday, when father and son met at police headquarters in Indian- apolis. The father at once recognized his son and, rushing to him, folded him in his arms and kissed him severnl times. The poy re- pulsed his father, whom he did not recognize, and did mot change his manner until they were on board the train and on the way to St. Louis. He said that Catelano took bim from home and after arriving in New York traveled across the country, making as much as $35 to 40 a week which Catelano re- ceived. When they reached San Francisco Catelano was arrested at the instigation of the hoy’s father who had obtaineda clue. Catelano then sold himtoa padrone from Nebraska, and whenthe father arrived to pronceute the case the prisoner gave $200 nd and jumped it. When Mussi arrived the prisoner said the boy baa been stolen from him and advised that they both go to Nebraska to prosecute the man. He afterwards recoy ~~ THE DOG STAR RAGES In all its intensity, but a still greater rage prevails for our Hot Weather Garments, onounced by competent judges as being indisputably the most extensive and diversified of Our assortment of which is pr any in the West. human frame has been omitted, of the BEAU MONDE but that is represented. convince the most incredulous.

A Detachment of the New Orleans Lad- dies in Town. Nearly one hundred members of the New Orleans Volunteer Fire Department arrived here this morning from Chicago and Mil- waukee,where they have been having a pleas- ant sojourn of about ten days. They express themselves delighted with their trip and will remain in St. Louis until to-morrow evening. They are a fine, sturdy looking body of men, with every evidence of being capable fire sfighters. They were most all attired in red shirts with black pants; others wearing badges on civilians’ dress. They were taken in charge at the Union Depot by acommittee of local firemen con- sisting of Assistant Chiefs John Lindsay and Judd Bain: Capt. Rucker of No. 15; Capt. Coogan of No. 1 (Babcock); Eugene Gross, No. 8; Frank Loftus,No. 12 and Tom Finerty, of No.6. They were taken in omnibuses to the Laclede Hotel where they passed the morning in getting off their ‘‘sea legs’’ and looking about town, many of the laddies hav- ing extensive acquaintance here. At 12 o’clock they were taken in|carriages to Forest Park, Tower Grove, Shaw’s Garden, the Fair Grounds and the Zoological Garden. To-morrow a river trip on the harbor boat is planned.
