The Sioux Chief Talks About Himself : and His Surrender. Forr Yates, D. T., August 4.—Through ‘he aid of Seout Allison, who is thoroughly ‘imiliar with the Sioux language, an ex- ‘Dded interview has been secured with Sit- ‘ctull.

Pueblo Steel Works. ‘ENVER, August 4.—Tbe blast furnace of * South Pueblo Steel Works will be ready - ans three wecks. The works ve y He has two living wives | ee cost over a million dollars. The company will be ready to turn out steelrails by next De- cember. They already have contracted to furnish the Denver and Rio Grande Company with thirty thousand steel rails for their ex- tensions. This will be about the capacity of the works for the first year. These are the first and only steel works established in Colorado, and are looked upon as quite an era in its history. Asan evidence of the stimulus given South Pueblo by these works, the company has sold lots to the value of over $100, since the beginning of the year. The company owns several iron mines near the placer and South Arkansas, to which tracks will be extended by the railroad com- any. The works will be among the largest fn the country, and the ore they will use is said to be equal te the Lake Superior deposits in purity and forthe manufacture of Besse- mer steel. MARAUDING REDSKINS. Renegade Apaches Murdering Whites in New Mexico. DENVER, COL., August 4.—The Tribune’s Las Vegas special from Socorro, N. M., says: An engagement between the renegade Apaches and Ranchero Mexicans has just tuken place on Red Creek, in the San Mateo Mountain. Several Mexicans were wounded, and one died this morning. Government scouts arrived here this morning, and report that the Indians are supposed to be under the leadership of Wane, and are coming north, | killing everything in their way.

All their horses were taken by the Indians. Lieut. Guelfiert has started on the trai!. Mexican Central. DENVER, COL., August 4.—The Las Vegas Gazette’s El Paso del Norte, Mexico, special says the track-laying of the Mexican Central Railroad began to-day. Gov. Tarrazos of Chihuahua, drove the first spike in the pres- ence of immense crowds. There is great re- joicing over the event. Santa Fe City is now witbout any railroad connections, there be- ing no trains either way on account of the numerous washouts onthe line of the At- chison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad. It is impossible to state when the damage will be repaired, as heavy rains are constantly oocur- ring, making new breaks in the track. Last Edition.

They have been figbting and trying to devour each other for the past three days. One eight feet long and another seven feet in length have been captured by the fishermeu. American Mailbags in Canada. TORONTO, Aug. 4.—Referring to the mail- bag story telegraphed from Washing- ton, the Toronto Mail. the ment organ, says: It is quite true that United States mailbags have been continually usedin our service, but also true the Canadian mail bags have been used _in the American service thougo on account of the greater quantity of United States mail, the balance of the advantage may have been on our side. As soon as the attention of the Canadian authorities was calledto the matter they at once took steps to enlarge the supply of bags for their own service and the late alleged grievance have been rapidly diminished. The matter is somewhat trivial for international excite- ment, butin these dull times anything will do for asensational incident. We are in- clined to think that if Postmaster-General James will push his investiga- tions furtber he _ will tind perhaps that those who have the high privilege of making the American bags have not been ig- norant of the use of them out of the country, and that minor postal officials of the United States have not been ignorant of the many considerations involved in this international irregularity.

President Garfield Passes Another Excellent Day. - — =< Official Bulletins—Latest News From the White House—The Doctors’ Opinion. Official Bulletin—8:30 A. M. EXECUTIVE MANSION, August 4, 8:30 A. M.—The President continues to improve. He slept well during the night, and this morning looks and expresses himself cheer- fully. Another satisfactory dav is antici- pated. Atpresent his pulse is 90, tempera- ture 98.4, respiration 18. The next bulletin will be issued this evening. Hereafter the noon bulletin will be dispensed with. THE BULLETIN CORRECTED, WASHINGTON, D. C.. August 4.—The morning bulletin to-day gives the President’s pulse at 98 when it should have been 90, the person who copied the bulletin having miade a mfstake. This caused some excitement temporarily, as that was unusually high for the pulse. Early in the morning the bulletin was corrected and allayed the feeling that hag arisen about it. An Excellent Day. EXECUTIVE MANSION, August 4, 12:30 P. M.—Dr. Bliss authorizes the statement that the President is having an excellent day. The 12:50 examination bas just been made with the following result: Pulse 96: temperature and respiration normal. The patient contin- ues to take increasing quantities of nourish- ment and is daily gaining strength. All re- ports of unfavorable changes should be dis- credited unless they have official authority. The President’s condition at this hour is bet- ter than at any time since his injury. Steady Improvement. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—The re- duced quantity of morphia administered to the President last evening did not seem to affect his rest Heslept as well as usual, and this morning looks and feels better even than yesterday. He has eaten a solid break- fast and remained several hours since in comfort. Dr. Hamilton saw the President this morning, the first time for five days, and expressed himself much pleased with the progress of the case anil said the wound was in good condition. Dr. Hamilton has talked freely and frankly for the first time since he has been in attendance. Ile Savs: “The President is doing nicely. Iam most decidedly of the opinion that he will recover.’’ The Doctor remains as Attor- ney General McVeach’s guest until Sunday, when Agnew returns. No examination o/ the wound will be made except morning an | evening, and nothing but the pulse of the patient will be taken between these hours. ——- — Hamilton Talks. WASHINGTON, August 4.—Dr. Hamilton said to a Western Press]reporter at noon that the President is doing as well as possible, and that in his opinion the President is certain to recover. He said the l’resident had not im- proved much in appearance and would not until he gets out somewhere and gets good air. He said the bullet will not be cut out unless necessary; that there is nothing to show that the ball is yet encysted, and the doctors do not know whether itis or not, that the surzeons do not know whether or not the wound is heal- ing internally, but all indications are that it is doing well. Malaria in His System. WASHINGTON, August 4.—In conversation on the President’s condition this morning Dr. Hamilton discussed the situation quite freely and expressed the opinion that President Garfield was progressing toward recovery in a very Satisfactory manner. In reply to the direct question, ‘*‘Dr. you think the Presi- dent will recover ?”’ the Doctor said *‘I have no doubt whatever of his ultimate recovery,’’ Dr. Hamilton also expressed the opinion thatthere was malariain the patient’s system. Tm response to interrogations relative to the moving of the patient from the Executive Mansion the Doctor said nothing could yet be determined upon, as the President was in no condition tobe moved. He thought, how- ever, when the proper time arrived a trip down the Potomac would be decidedly bene- ficia) and hasten his recovery. Minnesota Crops. CHICAGO, August 4.—The weather, which has been very warm for three days in this city and for much alonger period in a greater part of Illinois and lowa, has seriously threat- enedthe corncrop. If rain should fall soon it is probable that the damage would be prevented,but the ground, especially where high and sandy, is greatly in need of rain. St. Paul papers report official figures for | the total wheat acreage of Minnesota for 1880 as 2,960,009, and for 1881 only about j00 acres more. The average yield last year was 13.90 per acre. Reports differ con- siderably concerning this year’s yield. Storms, floods and bugs have done some in- jury, but the latest reports are quite favor- able, particularly from the northern sections of the State. Other cereals promise more than average results. Minnesota’s chief pro- duct is wheat, she baving raised last year but 738.000 acres of corn, 476,000 acres of oats and 203,000 acres of barley. Quarantine Station. WASHINGTON, August 4.—Register of the Treasuary Bruce to-day prevailed upon the National Board of Health to re-establish the quarantine station recently discontinued a few miles below Vicksburg. The reason as- signed by the board for discontinuing the station wasthat the men tent there all took swainp fever. The station will bere- after. be located on an ee island in the river a mile or two lower down than the old station, as it is said thie island is free from malarial effects. Virginia Politics. RICHMOND, VA., August 4.—The Conserv- ative Demccratic State Convention was called aes ie ae, ee ‘ 4 to order at noon, J. N. Stubbs, of Glouces- ter, temporary chairman. There was: a re<« cess to allow the district delegationsto select three members for each of the following committees: Credentials, permanent organi- zation and resolutions. Catholic Total Abstinence. Boston, August 4.—The second day’s sese sion of the National Catholic Total Absti- nence Union was preceded by solemn hig mass of requiem at the Church of the Immac- ulate Conception. The following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That we acknowledge with crat- itude the encouraging words of our hier- archy, the zealous efforts of their priest, who during the past have fostered the good cause and helped it on &y word and example,and we hope their success will bea stimulus to still more earnest ef- forts in the future; that itisto the interest of every citizen of the country to help en the good work, for in proportion as the vice of in- temperance decreases so will men in demarding unceasing efforts in the sup- pression of so odious a vice; that we view witb just pleasure the rapid progress of the cause ecame vetter citizens honest and uprightin their dealings, trade will prosper, industry will flourish. The unbiased testimony of thinking men, the daily experience of those in authority. agreed among the ladies of the land and the number of ladies’ branches already started shows that they are alive to the cause and its benefits, and it is a harbinger of bright prospects for the rising zeneration. for good mothers will bring up good chil- dren; that while the organization of cadet societies is not aitogether dead, we regret apathy in their formation and we again urge with all our power the orcaniza- tion of cacet societies in everv parish; that recognizing the powers of the press. We call on Catholic papers to ad- vocate in season and out of season the cause of total abstinence. The seventh resolution urges the import- ance of making the meetings attractive. The eighth tenders thanks to the clergy and press, A resolu ion’ oof sympathy with the Irish people on the strugge for land reform, and declaring the Land League has no more efficient sup- port in its principles than the Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America, was adopted. Hot as Hades. CHICAGO, August 4.—The heat continues to-day without any abatement, though the breeze counteracts in some degree the intens- ity ofthe heat. At 1 o’clock the thermometer was 93. The body of ex-Gov. Bagley, of Michigan, arrives at2 p. m. via Chicago and North- western from San Francisco. A committee consisting of Mayor Thompson and twenty- five citizens of Detroit are here, and will take the remains to that city to-night. The American Express Company’s butld- ing is draped in mourning out of respect to the memory of President Fargo, who died at suffalo yesterday. ~— ADDITIONAL RIVER NEWS. Capt. H. B.

LONG Brancu, August 1.—It takes a good deal of resignation to enjoy one’s self ata place like Long Branch without being the fortunate owner of a carriage and span. Next te bathing driving is the principal amusement here, and Ocean avenue presents a most animated scene between the hours of 5 and 7 in the afternoon. Every style of turn- out known to fashionable life is there to be seen upon the road. Stately barouches, lan- daus and landaulettes, T-carts and dog-carts without number, stylish drags and jaunty little two-wheeled wagons drawr by ponies, and sometimes even by donkeys, are among the favorite vehicles in which the gay world at the Branch loves to take its daily airing, to eclipse its neighborin splendor of equi- page or elegance of attire, and at least to daz- zie the miserable plebeians who trudge along on foot. But even these latter may ride, if they can content themselves with the cheap emnibuses which run along the shore, drawn by the sorriest-looking steeds that ever awak- ened the sympathies of mankind since the days of Rosinante. But, still better than the omnibus, you may hire a darling turaout with blezing crest and watchman and footmin in livery, and who is to know or suspect that it is not your own if you your- self keep the secret? A well known s0- ciety beau, who bas for years been onthe lookout for an heiress,appears this summer in dazzling stvie with a tandem team, with liveried servants,and the reputation of having fallen into a fortune; but yet itis a fact that the fine equipage 1s only hired for the season, and unless this new and ingenious device captures the heiress the livery man may whistle for his bill. Probably at no summer resort will be seen a finer display of horses and vehicles than here at Long Branch. Itis a genuine pleasure to one who admires and loves a mettiesome steed to sit uponthe hatel piazza and watch the gay procession as it goes by on flying wheels. Many of the Long Branch belles are also daring equestrianes, and they add picturesqueness to the scene as they co flashing by at breakneck speed, to the wonder and admiration of atl beholders. Many celebrities,in all walks of life mav be passed every day upon the road, and promi- nent among them are the political lights,who seem to find unusual solace from their per- plexing cares in listining to the sad sea waves. Among these Uncle Sammy Tilden has been a familiar figure in past seasons, veuer- ally on horseback, and there are few better or more graceful riders than he. Still his fine horsemanship never gained UncleSammy a wife, and if be had not been a miserable old bachlor, perhaps he might have got into the White House; who knows? But then. in the light of recent events, it mav not be an enviabie lot after all to hold the highest place inthe nation. Peace of heart in an humble rank of life may be preferable to an exalted but dangerous post, especially as all men are not born to be heroes. Great satisfaction is expressed here at the Branch over the good news from Washington, for here President Garfield has many personal as we!! as political friends. Long Branch well deserves the name of summer capital, judging from the number of dignitaries who resort hither. Gen. Grant has been enjoving his summer ease in this fair city by the sea, and many a pleasant memory must be his as he sits list- ening to the eternal monody of the breakers aus they dash uponthe shore, and recalls the striking events of his career in his own land, and the pleasant incidents of his remarkable journey through foreign countries. Gen. Grant is stillon the sunny side of sixty, a young man to have lived his very eventful life, and looking as hale and hearty as ever. One of the features of the drive in fashion- able life is my lady’s little dog, who goes out every day for anairing. There is a prevail- ing rage for puppies, although it may be re- marked en passant that not all of them are four-footed. For what else would vou call the magnificent “‘swelis” (that is their tit!e in Boston), os will meet at the Branch’? Some- times my lady’s pet dog wears a lace cap and ribbons as it sits in the carriage, and very of- tenit has a maid; this must be the very gran- deur of puppydom! Thenthe little dog at the seaside hasits daily bath inthe surf, as well as its mistress, who takes her curled darling into the water, plunges him into the surf, balf drowns him inthe briny wave, then hands him to her maid, who wraps him up carefully and carries him to the bath- house to be dried, combed snd curled while my lady enjoys her bath. The duties of a lady’s maid are certainly manifold in these dlavs. The sea is covered with white caps this morning, and the surf beat all night upon the beach with anangry roar. Upon Siturdav last the Waves ranso high that no steamers could land atthe Pier, and the disappointed excursionists oo board had toreturn home again without visiting the Branch. The sea side is dismal enough in rainy weather, and most inexcusably damp! Shie most eccentric individ ual here this sumime™ is voted to be the man who prefers actually the society of his own wife to that of any other woman. BKutafter all, this may be only masculine craftiness, just to keep that lady in good humor. One of the belles de clares that when she is married she hopes her husband will have better sense tuan to be ‘always hanging around!’’ And anotifer oung ladv was heard to sav that she really ated the seaside, because all the mothers came hereto marry off their dauvhters, an were forever snifling the air as thoush they scented amillionaire inthe breeze. And for her part it Was most mortifying to know that her mother’s highest ambition was to see ber married and settled. Thus it will be seen that fashionable life bas its drawbacks as well as humbler modes of existence, and that wealth does not always Signify happiness. August promises to be unusually gay atthe Branch. The hotels are already filled with cuests. Full dress hops are given every evening, and what with |ath- ing, driving, fishing, going on picnic parties and other excursions, the days go merrily by at the seaside, and summér will have flown long before we are weary of it. SOPHIE SPARKLK, A Seducer and Bigamist Run Down. Lynchburg ( Va.) Special! to Chicago Tribune. In Aucust, 1879, a stranger, viving his name as Jas. C. Waite, came to this city and estab- lished himself in the mercantile business. There was « mystery about the man that could not be solved. He seemed to be indis- to talk about his past life, but said, as Was evident, that he wasa Western man. When he located here he was accompanied by a lady and child, represented as his wife and daughter. The lady was of beautiful and stately form, and the child a vivacious and interesting one of five years. After envaging board the man opened a small grocery store, and, although in a strange place, nis inde- ' fatuzeble spirit and business talent at- tracted the attention of A large wholesale ——— ~-« the 18th of Junelast Mrs. Waite died ia chiid- birth. Her husband was ateading member of the Second Presbyterian Church here, and a leader in all g works. After the death of his wife be appeared greatly distressed and more pious than before. This morning the Virginia Midland train brought a new stran- gerto thecity, and he, alighting from the care, approached oe and introduced himself as Jobn Waite, of Essexville, Mich. He then handed the officer a photograph, which he at once recognized as that of James Waite, the grocery-store man. The stranger then said that the object of his visit was to apprehend the original of the pbotograph, who had eloped with bis wife and at the same time abducted bis little girl. A warrant was eworn out, charging James Waite, alias James Burgess, with bigamy and seduction, and he was arrested at his plice of business. The new-comer gave 2 full account of the elope- ment by Burgess with his wife. At the time they were residents of Essexville, the seducer being bookkeeper for Currie & Co., lumber and salt merchants,of which tirm he was alsoan employe. Burgess enjoyed high sovial stand- ing, was a leadidg brother in the Congrega- tional Church and Sunday School,of which he was also treasurer, and lived in the height of style in a bandsome residence. He regard- ed Burgess as an intimate friend. Burgess was married also, and had one child. The clopement took place July 15, 1879. Waite had determined to take his wife to Bay City for her hexlth, and Jearning the fact, Bur- gess, stating that he had specia: business tn the city, volunteered to relieve Waite of the trouble by acting as bis wife’s escort. This was the last the wronged husband saw of his wife and child. A few days afterward he re- ceived a telegram from Detroit, signed Buar- gess, saying: ‘“‘I have taken your wife and child: youtake mine. A fair exchange is no robbery.’’ The injured husband states that he had been looking for his wife and child two vears, and had spent nearly all his money inthe effort to recoverthem. Bur- gess, not satisfied with stealing Waite’s and child, also stole his name when he tled here. Hehas made a full confession, and will be taken to Michigan as soon as a re- quisition can be obtained. An Argument for Cremation. Pitisburg Cor. New York Herald. Small-pox and typhoid fever are very preva- lentin Pittsburg, and itis feared that this winfer the former .disease will be epidemic. Some results of an investigation now in progress by the Board of Health will-give aa idea asto some of the causes of the unhe ilthi- ness of the city. On Bedford avenue, almost in the heart of Pittsburg, is a large grave- vard used by colored people. This morning Mr. Timmis, the sexton, came to the office of the bourd at the request of the Health Offi- cer. He told the board that he had been sexton of the cemetery for abouttwo years anda haif. During that time, he said, there were a great many double interments, one body beirg buried above another. This ap- peared to be practiced at a matter of econ- omy. People in the neighborhood com- plained thata horrible, deadly stench arose fromthe graveyard, and the sexton said it was true that such was the case. Whenever there were two or three bot, dry days the yraves would crack open and from the apertures smoke would arise, giving fortha very unpleasant smell. He knew of several families who frequentiy had to close the doors and windows of their houses to keep it out. One family, the Fosters, moved away on account of it. At times it was impossible togothbrough the grounds without being made sick by the awful stench. This was caused by the interment of bodies one on top of the other, in some instances these bodies filling the grave to within six inches of the top. His instructions were to dig all graves five and a half feet, providing the digging was not too hard, and he hadtime to do it: if not, then dig them as deep as he could—just deep enough to hidethe box. Hesaid he always dug them five feet or nearly} that, but When they would put in two thirty-inch boxes the grave would be filled to the top. Searcely a night passed but he saw twenty to thirty dogs prowling around through the grounds, and almostevery morning during the late hot spell he had to cover up the boxes that had been laidbare. This was especia'ly true in the case of a Mrs. Woods, who had been buried on the top of ber busband’s body, the *trough box’”’ being almost on aline With the ground: the dogs never got further than the outside of the boxes. The fences were in sucha dilapidated Was impossible to keep the dogs out of the crounds. A Stranger to These Shores. From the New York Sun. A turtle that is undoubtedly a foreigner, and that is said to have bailed from the Medi- terranean, strayed to these shores and was caught in a moss bunker net off Rockaway on Saturday. Yesterday he was sent to the city, and he lay during the dav under a tent on the Wharf adjoining Fulton Ferry, where many people went to see him, paying an admission price of ten cents ahead. Such a turtle as he is unknown to these parts, and his pro- prietors do not pretend to name his species. He is more than six fect in length, and his breadth istwo-thirds as much. His general color is black, ‘but his bead and shoulders are mottled with yellowish white spots like an old-fashioned marble mantelpiece. 240,000 to the Brooklyn hospital! isthe largest ever made by an American to such a purpose. Seney does notintend to leave a great fortune. He has made money rapidly, and in view of its transitory character he purposes to put it into active use. In speak- ing of this remarkable benefactor, I would add «a caution concerning begging letters. Such men pay no attention to appeals of this kind, and hence the latter are onlv a waste of postage. Seney receives nearis 100) per week, and when ex-Gov. Morgan vave $100,000 to the Union theological seminary be found himself llooded with the same kind of applications. Robert L. Stuart has a similar experience, andso had Peter Cooper. Both Seney and Cooper will continue their benefactions, but they will select the objects. D.$0. Mulls has made a good beginning by a donation of $75,000 to the University of California, and when he inisbes his grand commercial buildingin Wal} and Broad streets he will probabiv increase his liberality. Morris K. Jessup ha# also made good use of the profits of his banking house.

From the New York Tribune (on Rockaway Beach, there stands, empty and locked, the biggest and costliest sea-coast hotel to be found inthe whole world. Most of thefurniture is in place, and with a few days’ preparation the concern could be reap- ing a barvestof money from pleasure-seekers, but there is a quarrel about who has the right tocontrolit. oned and has been trying to recall what crime he might have committed. The constant watch and the interest manifested in him by the Jarce number of daily visitors made bim think that the crime must be a serious one. Upon being informed that no wrong had been committed by him and told of the cause of his being in this institution his countenance brightened and: turned more cheerful. - To- day he continues to converse, and from pres- ent prospects he has overcome his difficulties and speedy recovery may be looked for, al- though he is still very weak.

It will takea pretty strong company to monopolize this business, butif Mr. Keene thinks he can do it, the opportunity is offered; let him try it. The more millions invested in transporting the commerce of the Mississippi Valley, the better for the people of the valley. Let the capitalists come; there is room for them.” Mr. JIM KEENE’S scheme to buy up all the Mississippi River towage and monopolize the coming trade isnota goodone. Inthe first place, Keene would have to pay twice as much forthe tloating stock as itis really worth: in the second place, instead of wa- tering the stock and making it ten millions and selling it at par, he would not be able to sell it, in any reasonable quantities for fifty cents onthe dollar of the original cost; anc in the third place, admitting that he had con- trol of evervthing for the time being, a shrewd jboatman could with a capital of live hundred thousand dollars build boats adapted to the trades, and with the people on his side, which they would be as opposed to a monopoly runthe whole Wall street syndi- cate intoj[bankrupcy in twelve months.

City of St. Louis, State of Missouri, 4s. Sworn toand subscribed before me, a No- tary Public within and for said city and State, at my office, this first day of August, 1881. (Seai.) RALPH TALBOT, Notary Public, Jay GOULD bas laid hands on the National Stock Yards over the river. Care should be taken to see that he does’nt get hold of our Court-house. IT seems that the disposition on the part of St. Louis journals to compare circulation with the Post-Disratcu has not assumed the form of a violent mania. THERE is a great rage for puppies at Long Branch this season. Those young Philadel- phia chaps who wear poodle whiskers and gnaw the ends of rattan canes ought to be in their clory there. Tuts would seem to be a favorable moment for pu-ling the movement in behalf of two classes of beer for five cents. The brewers have cut down the rates and the retail job- bers ought to follow suit. IT must be borne in mind that Senator Beck, of Kentucky, voted to confirm STAN- LEY MATTHEWS as Associate Supreme Court Justice, but he was probably misled by PEN- DPLETON and other great Democratic leaders. OVER in the Ohio Valley and Northern Kentucky the farmers are growing panicky about the corncrop. They haven’t had rain enough. However, as Kansas has quit drink- ing whisky there isn’t as much demand for corn as there used to be. ALL the newspapers in St. Louis having taken ashy at the Fenian infernal machine business, the Republican comes rumbling along this morning with a story that is really amusing. The imitative faculty is very large- ly developed in the Simian race. A CABLE telegram announces that Lady BURDETT-€OUTTS and her husband will pay ourcountry avisit in October. The young menof New York city who are engaged in the business of hunting forrich girls to mar- ry should cive the old lady a reception. — —_— —-—- = Mk. GARFIELD was made to laugh immod- erately yesterday at one of Dr. AGNEW’s jokes. The average physician’s joke is a little severe for people exhausted by suffering, and we would advise that the President be ex- empted from this treatment until he is able to saw a haif cord of wood. We have had some pretty tough scenes in the lower branch of Congress, but nobody ever attempted yet to break in and take pos- session of aseat. It sometimes happens that it is necessary to carry a member out and put him to bed, but the spectacle of an M. C. de- nuded by the police under the shadow of the Capitol is still in reserve for us. le Parliament is prorozued by the Isth inst... Mr. LYON PLAY¥FaAIR, Deputy Speaker of the English House of Commons, will take a little run over to this country. If he comes here we will take occasion to inform him that if there was less Playfair and more fair play inthe House of Commons it would be better for the cause of humanity. THERE are some alleged newspapers here in Missouri that are very much disturbed about the wickedness of HARTMANN and the Russian Nihilists, but when it comes to con- templating the fiendish ana unnecessary crimes of the JAMES boys they exhibit to a most remarkable degree that which JOHN LOGAN would designate as “‘sang-froidness,”’ It requires less nerve to denounce patriots in Russia than to raisea hue and cry against Democratic bandits in Missouri. ON July 2ist statesmaniike brain atthe Warm Springs of Virginia, sat down and wrote an open letter to Mr. W. T. SULLIVAN, of the North Mis- _so0vrian. in wifich he called bim a willful. malicious and cowardly liar, for having inti- mated in his paper that one of Missouri’s Senators had been tangled up in a sleeping- ear episode with a liberal-minded lady. At * Jast accounts Mr. SULLIVAN was running madly throuch the woods of Daviess county ‘with this awful brand blazing from his brow. Woen Mr. WILKIF, the London corre- spondent of the Chicago Jimes, first turned up in the British metropolis, he cie ited vreat excitement on account of the cut of his clothes. He consumed one entire column caused by his gawk-like appearance. Re- cently he shocked the London public by donning a brown straw hat, and as a result we have another highly personal letter. As | tis evident that Mr. WILKIE can’t pick up ) any news except that which he provokes by Senator VrsT, resting his - the style in which he adorns himself he should hasten to imitate Yankee Doodle by sticking a feather in his hat, ealling it maccaroni, and riding through Piccadilly on the outside of a Tunbridge Wells stage. Our predatory friend, the editor of the Se- dalia Bazoo, says that the best part of the PosT-DISPATCH 18 the muscellahy which adorns the second page. We agree with him, ina measure. We give the second page a great deal of editorial attention. Everything that appears there is culled with great care and with a view to the gratification of the tastes of our intelligent readers: but we notice that when the unrepentant sneak thief of the Bazoo wishes to steal a bright idea or a juicy editorial cutlet he always jabs his rusty old scissors into our fourth page. We can al- most pardon the vulgar villain on account of | the good taste that he sometimes shows. IT is due the managers of the Lepublican to say that they have not undertaken to en- force that cruel decree against the twelve carriers who supply city routes with both the Itepublican and Post-DisraTcH. The discovery that nine of the twelve carriers | would surrender their Republican rontes and remain with the POST-DISPATCH on account of superior inducements offered in the way of business doubtless surprised them, while the exposure of their spiteful meanness cer- tainly injuredthem. In this conne tion we desire to say that we have utrered no com- plaint against our neighbors. Their action last week, while it was calculated to reduce the bread and butter of a few hard-working carriers, could not hurt us in the slightest degree. Furthermore, it will be observed that we are notinthe habit of crying when we are pinched. There is no kind of warfare that unhappy business rivals can inaugurate against us that we are not equalto. Whenit comes to distributing damayve we ure very handy. Like the venerable gentleman that LINGARD used to tell about, we expect to expire in the happy confidence that we “‘have bested as many people as ever bested us.’’ OVER in Obio the other day a poor imbecile named MORRISON expressed the hope that GARFIELD would die, and a cheap patriot standing near slapped him in the mouth. He was arrested for the assault and fined $10. The Cincinnati Commerc’a/ is raving about the outrage. It says that the man who slapped the ‘‘dirty dog’? should have had a pension and it calls for a public subscription to liquidate his fine. The editor of the Com- mercial, who has been promised a foreign mission by GARFIELD, has shown more blood- thirstiness about this assassination business than the gentleness of his nature would seem to warrant. He expressed regret that GUI- TEAU Was nottornto pieces by a mob just after he shot the President and more than a dozen times since he has advocated mob law for him. If the President should die Mr. HALSTEAD would be left in a bad way, but there is no reason why his bitterness toward GUITEAU sbould lead him to upset the corner- stones of society. Peopie should not be familiarized with the idea that they have a right to execute vengeance. There is no crime that cannot be punished by law in this country and the man who encourages Ivnch- ing, either in Colorado or Ohio, is not only a fool but a public enemy. THE old whipping-post and bloodhound organ, the Republican, returns to its mutton, the Nibilist HARTMANN this morning. Out of the abundance of its wisdom,it speaks thus: The Russian an inopportune visit to the The people oft this country have never had much respector tolerutiontfor the spirit of liberty that makes way for itselt by assassina- tion, and the shooting of President Garfield has put the American publicin the worst sort of humor with those murderers who try to parade their crimes as public services.

He was denied his seat at the last session of Parliament be- cause he would not to the set oath—being an Infidel and opposed on prin- ciple to Christian oaths. More recently he expressed a willingness to take the oath, and protest cause is not entirely destitute. subscribe regarding it ae a mere form, but the Tories in the House held thatthis wouldbe sacri- legious and so they determined that he should not even be allowed to appear atthe bar of | the House. The factis, BRADLAUGH, hy his , extreme Radical notions,has excited the bitter hostility of the old feudal despots and landed proprietors, who hold their titles in direct descent from Norman thieves. He has threatened to break up the land system, enfranchise everybody and convert Great Britain into a pure democracy. Naturally they regard him as a red Beelzebub—a de- stroyer of all that is good and holy—and a warfare has been inaugurated against him at last which may eventually shake the foundation of things over there. BRADLAUGH is not a mantoshirk trouble. He has the courage of his convictions. He is as strong as an ox and as inflexibie as old St. JusT, the fierce spirit who lighted the torch of liberty in theincipient stage of the French Revolu- tion. He will returnto his attack upon the House of Commons and every day his parti- aans Will increase in number and intensity. If he had been admitted to his seat he would have been as harmless as BIGGAR or LABOU- CHERE in the voting. But Royalty and so- called Conservatism have always made the mistake of setting up a rough edge against the reformatory agitator and in nearly every instance recorded in history this policy has proved a mistake. It is likely to prove a mis- take in the case of BRADLAUGH. GUITEAU is asking to be admitted to bail. As the recovery of the President is now almast assured, some of the humane Administration journals are hinting that it would be an economical measure to bail the wretch and let the mob administer on him. It issaidthat there is an organization of young men in Bal- timore—the descendants of the old blood- drinking ““Plugs,’’? perhaps—which has sworn to make quick work of the would-be assassin as soon as hands can be laid upon him. For the benetit of these young men and the highly- civilized journalists who are insisting that GUITEAU should be dealt with in an extra- judicial way, we would direct attention to the stvle in which the thoughtful French disposed of a young religious fanatic named PIERRE DAMIENS, who had the misfortune to prick the sacred person of King LOUIS XV. with a small knifein the year of our Lord 1758. DAMIENS was a Jansenist, a poor lunatic without accomplices or motives, who con- ceived the idea that Orthodoxy would be advanced by the sudden removal of the King. The assault whici he made at Versailles was scarcely suflicient to dis- turb the equanimity of the King, jbut it was thought necessary to make an example of the poor zealot. From the hour of his ar- rest until the day of his execution—nearly three months—he was kept in constant tor- ture, not being permitted to sleep except at prolonged intervals. In the life of VOLTAIRE written by PARTON the story of the poor devil’s execution is told. First he was taken to atorture chamber and subjected to the greatest anguish that the human frame is capable of enduring, surgeons standing by to give timely potice of insensibility. Then he was driven by a circuitous route through the streets of Paris tothe place of execution. This took an hour anda half. Another half hour he was kept waitingin full view of the preparations, the apparatus not being ready. Then,in view ofthe assembled multitude, many of whom were women, he was placed on a lofty platform, and the hellish work be- gan. First his right hand was burned off; next, masses of flesh were torn from him by red-hot pinchers and melted lead and rosin poured into the wounds; lastly, 4 strong horse was attached to each of his four limbs and an attempt was made to tear him to pieces. After aconsiderable period it was foundimpossible to do this, and a message was sent for permission to cut the muscles of the joints. It was refused, and again an at- tempt was made totear the limbs apart, but without success. A second time word was sent that the horses could not tearthe dying wretch asunder. Permission was then given: and the muscles were severed, but notuntil both legs and one arm had been torn off did the prisoner. expire. With all our inventive ingenuity we ought to be able to improve on this business when the young gentlemen from Bultimore, backed by the Cincinnati Commercial, take the con- tract to butcher GUITEAU. ~ As a rule we don’t care much about news- paper compliments, but when a gallant knight like the editor of the Kirksville Demo- crat lays aside his reformatory sword, the good Excalibar, and turns a paragraph of this pattern, we are touched to the profound- est depths ofthe cardiac apparatus referred to: Wetake exquisite pleasure in feeling as- sured of the humane ideas which ever prompt the PosT-DIsPaTCH in the expression of opin- ion, and that his heart revolts at all forms of cruelty and injustice. A compliment like this, even though the rules of syntax be jarred, is like an apple of gold set in a picture of silver.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: A friend of river improvement would re- spectfully ask through your columns of what use to the generalimprovement of the river is the work now being done below the mouth of the River Des Peres—imme- diately below Carondeleton the Missouri side? Steamboatmen who have made a study of the river are unable to understand the usefulness of the work alluded to ueless itis to improve private property at the expense of the General Government. There are many places where the expenditure ot the same amount of money inaproper manner would produce lasting benefits to navigation. STEAMBOATMAN. Mashing the Mashers. ST. Louis, Mo., August 4. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The reporter who wrote the article ‘‘ Pistols and Patience’’ deserves special credit for it. It gave the whole details and strikes the worst lot of gawks that ever assembled in a monkey show. What I mean are the so-called mashers who frequent Uhrig’s every night and stare ladies out of countenance. SUBSCRIBER. Humor of a Mild Type. From this Morning’s Republican. Isn’t it just possible that Gould has got tired of playing with railways and is trying his hand now on acornerin comets’ Three com- ets in sight at once may fairly be character- ized as suspicious evidence of a eelestial con- solidation quite in the style of Jay Gould. é The Ohio Campaign. From the Cincinnati Commercial. ‘thus far the Democracy seemto have been able to get out of Mr. Bookwalter only $30,000. However, the candidate who cast his first Democratic vote last fall is resolved to es- tablish a literary bureau, and that means money. The Babbling Brother-in-Law. From the Chicago Times. That the President is growing impatient is a good sign, and if he would hurlacup or two at the brother-in-law babblers round about him it would be a wholesome discipline for them.

Brewers Continue to Brawt, and the Saloons Get the Benefit. The brewers are still sorely excited over the cut in the price of beer supplied to the retail trade. A Post-DtspaTcH reporter found several of the representatives of the leading firms discussing the cut at the brew- ers’ corner of the Exchange this morn- ing. The initial movement of the Winkelmeyer firm on Monday, now known as (“Straube’s shave,” has the effect of bringing all firms, ex” — one, into line. The Lemp brewery alone maintains the old rate, per bar- rel of four kegs, and no change will be intro- duced until Mr. Lame. himself returns to town from Quincy. 1s manager has not thought well to apprise him of the warfare going at home and he will not be disturb- ed in the matter. The Green Tree Brewery held out at the old. terms yesterday, but this morning it announced the $7 figure to its customers. If the slaughter is carried any farther it can enly result iu the supply of an inferior quality of beer, but it is probable that some of the wealthy firms will cut still lower and furnish the stock on hand at a sacrifice for the purpose of squeezing the small firms to the wall. Mr. Jacoby of Lemp’s brewery said that it was imposs ble to furnish good beer and make anv profit at a seven dollar figure. When Mr. Lemp re- turns the PosT-DIsPaTCH will be furnished with a tabular statement of the exact cost of a barrel of beer, and Mr. Jacoby thinks that he will convince the public that good, wholesome lager cannot be supplied at the existing cut rate. Some of the brewers, bowever, are 1n favor of putting a speedy end to the demoralization by cutting as low as five dollars a barrel. Cais, they believe, would force all the brewers to terms right away, and they would come to- gether to establish prices a upon uniform ba- sis again. Mr. Schlossstein, of the Green Tree Brew- ery, thought that it would be impossible to crush out the discounts and the treating sys- tem. The drivers were obliged to spend something at the counter, and a collection could not well be made without a little ex- penditure *‘forthe good of the house.’’ He wus in favor of a the local Brewers’ Association for the protection of the trade interests. The movement is ulready well advanced, and it willtend to promote barmony among the brewers, and will lead to settlemeat of all differences in the future without recourse to the throat-cutting policy. The: Anheuser Brewing Company deny that they have sold any beer for less than $s. THE BIG BRIDGE. Julius Walsh, the New President, Ke- turns to Town To-Day. The ninety-nine vear lease of the bridge is now a fixed fact, and the structure will pass into the hands of the Mis- souri Pacific and the Wabash Roads on the 22d of September. The terms have all been agreed upon ata meeting of the stockholders and the prospec- tive lessees, and theinstrument only awaits the formal consent of the former, which will be granted at the meeting adver- tised .for September 22. Mr. Julius S. Walsh has been - made _ president of the Bridge and Tunnel Comyany, succeed- ing Solon Humphreys. The change was made at the New York meeting held on the 10th of June. Mr. Walsh returned to town to-day,and he confirms the statement.He also says that no further changes will be made, and that none have been contemplated. The terms of the lease have been slightly changed, the altera- tion being that the time of paying the per- centage on the first and second indebtedness has been _ set forward. Otherwise the arrangements are as reviously published in the POST-DISPAI CH. A prominent stockholder, who objects to the use of his name,said this morning: “‘Of course the stockholders will consent to the lease. As far as I have talked with them here and in the East, they are all satisfied, We get the interest on the bonds paid, and a good percentage on the _ indebtedness, and what more do we want? We have assurances that the policy of the company Will not be changed. Indeed, if any material changes in this direction were made the effect would be to vacate the lease. The stockholders. get a fair show, and those who use the bridge will have no reason to be dis- satisfied.” NORTH ST. LOUIS ITEMS. During the past month there were forty ar- rests at the Fourth District Sub-Station. F. W. Impenson, of the Tenth District Court, has returned from the Illinois River. A petition isin circulation asking for the removal of the Salvation Army from the Stur- geon Market, Broadway and Benton street. This morning at 6 o’clock a horse attached to the milk wagon of Ernst Hertz ran away on Second and Talcott Streets, resulting in $15 damages tothe wagon. This morning as D. Brown, a granger from Illinois, was passing along Second and Lewis streets, he was attacked by a lot of hoodlums and severely beaten, and cut onthe left side of the face with a knife. The object of the attack was doubtless robbery. No arrests have been made. Brown’s wounds were at- tended to at the Dispensary. CARONDELET JOTTINGS. The strike of the ship carpenters and calk- ers has assumed no new phase since vester- day evening. <A meeting of the strikers took place at Gillick’s Hall yesterday but trans- acted nodmportant business.

Jobn Sullivan was found guilty of ee and was sentenced to ten days n jail. Smit’s Note Suit. A suit was filed to-day by Sam Smit against Max L. Gumpert and Heinrich An- gerstein, to reeover the sum of $1,3000n a protested vote. The paper was executed by Gumpert November 9, 1880,in favor of An- gerstein, who indorsed it and delivered to plaintiff.

Rea Claims Him for ines ween Morning. ile At 5 o’clock this morring First Assistan: Chief Richard Beggs of the Fire Department died at his residence, No. 1111 Leonarg avenue where he has been confined for sey. eral months with an affection of the lungs, Assistant Chief Beggs first joined the Fire p-. partment in its present style of organization in 1857. Previous to that he was 4 member of the Independent Fire Compuiny, whose house was situated on Eleventh, near Wash street. When he became a member of the regular fire department It Was as As- sistant Chief, a position whicd he has heid with much credit ever since. At the many jarge fires that have occurred in St. Loui; during the last twenty years, much of the headwork was planned by the dead chief, in w bose judgment and courage = Chief Sexton had implicit faith. The bardship of a fireman’s life told on him after many years of work, and he found bis lungs in a dangerous con- dition. He went to Colorado to improve his health, but without any success, nd a few months ago be was prostrated by his. coin- plaint, which compelled him to take to his bed. With little hope of sucvessfully im- peding the progress of the disease De seetres the best medical assistance, but if Was of no avail. He sank rapidly during the last few weeks, and this morning died. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity in good standing.

A number from each company wiil be sele«ted from the various houses to attend the funeral.

The fligs on tae City Hall and Four Courts were placed xt half mast ssa tokenof respect tothe de- ceased. Mr. Beggs leaves a wife and daugh- ter. a Red Hot. The weather to-day took an upward in- clination, and roasting has been the genera} rule. The sun has poured down its rays in- cessantly, and a thermometer placed out in the sun near the corner of Fifth and Chestnut streets atlla.m. soon registered 155 de- grees. The high temperature has had a marked effect on business, the retail dealers along Fourth and Fifth streets complaining that their trade has fallen off one-half. It is too hot for any one to come down town, and during the middle hours of to-day the streets in the business localities, which are usually so crowded, were almost deserted. The Signal Service prom- ises a probable change towards evening and a cool night, but the indications are slightly against it, and it is generally looked upon as improbable. The scarcity of prostrations reported to-day shows that the publicis taking good care of itself and keeping out of the sun and the saloons as much as possible. The following is the read- ing of the mercury as furnished by Aloe’s standard thermometer: A FRETFUL mother and cross child indi- cates ill health, requiring only Hop Bitters to remove. ABOUT TOWN.

Meeting This Afternoon—Feeling—The Retail Trade on the ‘*Cut.”’ The sentimentin the retiil trade among saloon-keepers at the brewers’ war is some2- what mixed. The old established saloons do not favor the cutand would even prefer an advance from a conservative idea that the small and cheap beer saloons injure the trad: and demoralize rezular custom. From another standpoint the saloon-keepers in the center of town do not approve of a system among brewers for abandoning the discounts and douceurs. Toe discount item fizures sub- stantially in large accounts, and is a much greater consideration than the small spend- ing money forthe driver or collector over the counter. - te feared that a reduced price will have the effect of crowi- ing the retail trade with small new establish- ments Where schooners will be disfensed, and the snug regular patronage of old corner saloons will thus be broken up. The five- cent small glass trade 1s a source of comfort- able revenue to the average saloon-keeper and be Wants no fluctuation of prices that would result in disturbing his regular busi- ness. The groceries and suburban saloons derive the greatest benelit from the cut, as it enables them to neta clear additional protit of 85 or *) cents a barrel, which is some consideration in the *“*bucket’’ business. Acting upon a sug- westion that the brewers and principal saloon- keepers down town should be brought together to-day to consult upon the best plan of _ restoring harmony and fixinga steady price for the beer supply, acall wasfissued by Mr. John Meis,the saloon-keeper at Seventh street and Franklin avenue, for a meetingsat Druids’ Hall this afternoon at two o’clock. The whole matter will be discussed and it may re- sult in the restoration of peace in the whole- sale trade. ia : The Anbeuser Brewery is still endeavoring to maintain the old rate, 38 per barrel, but it is stated on cood authority that $7 will not be refused at that establishment. , More New Cotton. Another ‘‘first bale’’ of cotton was received to-day, this one coming from Mississippi. it was raised by Louis Kent and shipped by W. i. Andrews & Bros. to Hill, Fontaine & Co., of this citv. W.L. Black was the purchaser, paving lje per pound. He will ship it to New York. This bale classed good middling. Mr. Jerome Hill, of Hill, Fontaine & Co., has just returned from a trip throurh Mis- sissippi, where he has been openinz up trade for the firm, and this bale is the first outcome of his trip.

- onan - A NICE MUDDLE. ; ~The Blair Monument Association - and Its Work. al 4 Why the Sculptors are Indignant 3 With the Committee. ’ ds Few Responses tothe Unique Cir- cular of the Art Connoiseveurs. “What the Artists Say, and the Seere- tary’s Defence. The circular recently issued by the Blair Monument Association, inviting a sesond competition of the leading sculpters of Amer- ica, has occasioned{considerable comment in artand general circles. It will be remem- bered that the first competition failed, the committee on monument having rejected the seven models submitted. A reason was given for this decision by the committee. The men who sat in judgment upon the work of the sculptors announced that after mature deliberation, consultation with those _ in- terested in the memorial and an interchange ofthe ideasof art connoisseurs upon the modeis, they had reached the conclusion that the competition “failed of merit.’’ No model was entirely satisfactory. This ultimatum was received by the competing sculptors with undisguised sentiments of disgust. They had thrown away many months of valuable time upon the subject,and at length were told that their skill, time and labor had availed nothing: the work would have to be opened up afresh. Aside from the slur cast upon their reputation by the committee of six wise men, the sculptors felt aggrieved by the general treatment experienced at the hands of the committee. ‘*They bandled us like a set of cobblers,” observed one. “They go about this business as if they were purchasing a piece of machinery,’ said an- other. The committee, it should be stated, wasselebted with the view of embodving men of profound art-knowledge and men of racticali business experience. They were: rard B. Allen, Peter L. Foy, J. B. McCullagh, . George Baraett, Silas Bent and the secretary, John S. Grif- fin. The art element in this combination was represented by Peter L. Foy, ex-journalist, and Silas Bent, receiver. of the St. Louis Mutual Life Insurance! Company. After many meetings to arrange a second competi- tion the following specimen ‘of com)»sition, the brain-product, it is said, of Peter L. Foy, issued from the association office: OFFICE OF THE ) BLAIR MONUMENT ASSOCIATION, | 421 OLIVE STREET, ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 20, 1881, j DeaAR—: The late competitive exhibi- tion of models forthe Blair monument hav- ing failedto present one entirely acceptable to the Monument Association, the Committee on Models and Designs have agreed to invite the leading sculptors of the country to cotn- pete a second time for the work, but under new conditions and requirements. You «are invited to furnish a bustin plaster of the sub- ject of the monument of the heroic size, or of the natural and proper size fora figure ten feet high, the turn and expression of which must strictly correspond withthe pose and expression of the full-length figure in the de- sign. 1. You are accordingly invited to furnish a V— ‘Louis. His magnificent compensation is to be $2,500! He mustcome here and rent a studio, pay costs of transportation, and give his whole time to the work. If he left here several hundred dollars in debt it would not be ah pymen, No artist with a reputation at stake could afford to go into this second competition. It is ridicu- lous, avd no sculptor can regard it otherwise. Some of the models first submitted from an artist’s view were excellent. They were & fair expression of the sculptor’s ideas.’’ J. B. McCullagh, editor of the Globe- Democrat, said: “I was instrumental in rais- ing the fund for the Blair memorial, and my name was placed on the committee for models and designs. It soon appeared to me, however, that the matter was in the hands of alotof old fogies who would never accom- plisb anything,and I ceased to take any active partin it. Thatisthe extent of my connec- tion with the committee. I have not even seen the second circular recently issued.” MacDonaid, the sculptor, a brother of Robt. S. MacDonald, was very angry with the com- mittee for rejecting the models, and he talked for atime of instituting a lawsuit. It seems that the committee omitted to state in the first instance that it reserved to itself the right to reject any and ail bids. Sec’v Griftin, after a perusal of the state- ment in the Chicago Times, said: ‘This is a tissue of misrepresentation probably inspired by some of the disappointed sculptors. Ina dividing the contract for the model in plaster and the bronze work, the committee is actu- ated by the best of motives. It has been determined not to go to the public for any more money. Ten thou- sand dollars isthe limit, and that sum will be expended legitimately. We have $6,500 in cash, $1,500in cash to collect from sub- scribers.and the cannon from the Government will probably yield $2,000. Our expenses are simply $7 50 a month for the rent of this office. There are no-salaries to pay; it jis all a la- bor of love. The totalof expense, inciuding printing and stationery, will not reach above $500. Wedecided to get the bronze work done ourselves because we believe it to be the better plan, and the figure for the sculp- tor’s compensation has been placed high enough considering that he is only fequired to furnish the plaster cast. At the first competition the highest bid ior the com- mission Was thatof the local sculptor, Mr. Kretschmar, $10,000. The other bids ranged from $6,500 to $9,000. It is not true that the Biair family were ignored by the com- mittee at the first competition. I addressed a letter to Mr. Jas. L. Blair invit- ing the opinion of himself and mother upon the models submitted. The committee re- jected allthe models because they did not possess sufficient merit. There was no other reason for opening up afresh competition. It is every man’s privilege when he wants to build a house to in- vite architects to submit designs, and the competition is considered fair by the profession. The Blair Monument Commit- tee has solicited an expression of the best sculptors’ skill. The best work will be rewarded with the commission for the p'as- ter model,and a fair price is offered for it. That 1s all there is in it.’”’ It seems thatthe only man who has an- nounced his intention of competing is an amateur sculptor of this city, Mr. Ruckstuhl. The Blair Memorial Assocation has now been laboring two years without bearing any fruit. LOCAL BREVITLES. The Victoria Cricket Club celebrated its first anniversary, last night. A fire at 118 North Third street yesterday afternoon did about $200 damage. Men were set to work yesterday cleaning out the reservoirs at Bissell’s Point. The Iron Mountain goes on track-laving. The Camden Branch is now receiving its rails, Beer is still coing down in more ways than one. They suy it will reach $1 50 a Keg before Saturday. James Mulligan had a preliminary examina- tion vesterday forthe kiiling of Wm. Elall, at Webster Grove. Wm. McKenna was stabbed in the breast at the corner of Fifteenth and Pine. He says Wim. Leslie, under arrest, is the man who cut him. A train ran over two horses, and broke four ribs belonging to Peter Stelg+er the driver, at AMUSEMENT NOTES. At the Park Theater, Second Carondelet avenue, the Ideal Star Combination of vaseery artists presenta programme of song, skete and dance features, making up an attractive entertainment every evening. The Star Com- re A will hold the boards at the Park for the wee Gilbert & Sullivan’s new opera, ‘“Pa- tience,’”’ was repeated last evening at the gar- den theater by Ford’s company toa large and appreciative audience. It will be withdrawn at the close of the week for the revival of ‘“‘Olivette’? on Sunday evening. There will be five presentations of this popular opera next week by special desire. Married for Worse. From the New York Tribune. We have already printed some account of the matrimonial misfortune of ayoung lady in Richmond, Va. The story may be briefly repeated. This girl, said to be estimable and respectable, saw in the Churchman an adver- tisement for a governess. She applied by let- ter for the position,when the scampish adver- tiser appeared in person at Riehmond, and was so Dieased with the voung woman that he marrie her immediately, previously settling $30,000 upon’ her. The bridegroom has turned out to be a forger and miscellaneous swindler. The bridal tour has been suddenly interrupted. The gentlemanly groom has fled to Canada. The bride has returned to her old home in Richmond. This is the whole story. Is it tragedy or comedy? Something, perhaps, of both. Atanyrate it is a warning, and as such we trust that all young as well as mid- dle-aged women, in danger of extemporane- ous betrotLals, will consider it. It seems almost inexplicable that any wo- man not an idiot should run the frightful risk of marrying aman of whom she could know accurately nothing, and with whom it was impossible for her to be sufficiently weil ac- quainted to warrant sucha venture. Yet it is a thing which happens constantly, and lamentable it is to consider its frequency. Certainly in so important and final a mat- ter as that of marriage, even though love should be out of the question, as usually inthe nature ofthings it must be when the parties have known each other only for afew days, areasonable degree of pru- dence would point to cautious delay. Yet this Richnrond bride, at the sbortest notice, ac- cepted all the statements of a scoundrel re- garding himself, his antecedents and his for- tune, and now finds herself lamentably be- traved and deserted. Expecting to be rich, she is poorer than ever. Her “settlement” of $30,000 is mere waste paper. Her husband willbe sent to some State Prison fora considerable term of years, 1f the lawislucky enough to catch him. If this is not ruin, it is something very much like it, for such a marriage hardly saves social position, while, of course, it precludes, on the side of its victim, almostall hope of anotber and more fortunate union. We do not like to speak harshly of one who has beep eo cruelly misused; but what shall we say of her *‘familv and friends,’’ who are said to have sanctioned by their approval this ill-omened marriage ? Really, they have no oceasion to congratu- late themselves upon the sagacity which they nave exhibited, auy more than the bride her- self, Where wastheir wisdom, their souad judgment and their sense of decency, when they permitted 4 kinswoman to join herself to an entire stranger? Did they never hear of adventurers? Had they never readin the newspapers of forged letters of introduction? If the women concerned, the bride and her poor mother, knew nothing of the wickeduess of this world, were the male kins- folk of the virl justasignorantly verdant? Mr. Thomas Marvin, the felonious adventurer, with bis clumsy forgeries, with his vuigar swindling expedients and cheap criminal methods, ought to have been able to deceive nobody in that intelligent city, and yet he was sharp enough to take in the widow and her daughter, and allthe daughter’s uncles and aunts, and finally the officers of the First National Bank of Richmond. No wonder the rogues multiply when dupes are made with such faoility. : Answering advertisements is a verv natural thing, yet it requires caution. especially when the advertisements are of a particular class, Wemen especially cannot be too much upon the alert, forthe first expedient of a knave with designs upon themisto advertise.

As yetitis understood that but two re- @ponses have becn made to this model circu- jar, and they are simple acknowledgments ofthe receipt of it. The sculptors who com- te in the arst instance have manifested no disposition to goin forthe second. The sec- retary paid the local sculptor Howard Kretschmar the compliment of ad- dressing bim ai second communication, and he replied a few davs since to the effect that the committee mirht count him out of the ¢ompetition. His reasons were stated in caustic style. Indeed the feeling in art cir- cles toward this notable monumental eom- mittee is so strong that it found expression in an article inspired by one of the disap- pointed competitors and published in the Chicago Times. With a view to obtaining an expression on either side of a controversy which promises phy was contfidenced out of $6 at the Union Depot vesterday. Policemen’s relatives need protection. Gus Berning cut and probably fatally wounded Joe Kliatt, a hosther for Mever & Strattman, livery stavle keepers, last night, ali onaccount of a buggy. A runaway street-car horse tried to enter the Hole-in-the-Wall saloon yesterd:y, but, vot being his time to treat,thev shut him out. He was taking advantage of the reduced price of beer. Fire did zbout $2,000 damage tothe build- ing at the northwest corner of Main and Olive streets vesterday evening. P. Lynch & Co., the Riverside Printing Company and L. W. tiemp & Co, were the losers. The Riverside Company was insured for $8,500. A couple of young gentlemen accompanied by ladies were out for a drive last night and wound up in the following style: They drove from Forest Parkto the Water Tower, viewed the light and then turned down Salisburv street. When they reached the engine-house on that thorougbfare an alarm of tire was just sounding. The horses became unmanagea- ble und plunged forward into the darkuess. A wild shriek pierced the night zephyrsa. A maiden fair with golden hair lay motionless upon the cold, damp ground. The team sped onward, but were finally checked in their mad career and driven back to the spot where lay the damsel apparently lifeless. But not so, as she had only eprained anu ankle in her de- scentfrom the vehicle to the ground, and then swooned. Fifteen cents, assisted by Messrs. Menges and Rogers, who had the team in hand, procured a plate of ice-cream from a neigbboring stand, and it was admin- istered to the uofortunate, who, under its cooling influences, soon recovered.

A great deal of bigamy, a crime becoming altogether too common, is for- warded in this Way, tosay nothing of other scoundrelisms, the perpetrators of which ricblv deserve hanging if anybody does. There is **a social sensation;’’ there are parasraphs in the newspapers; itis not for want of ex- posure that these knaveries are repeated: vet scandalously frequent they continue to be, They will be less so if Women will be a little more cautious and will remember that tiere may be worse things than a life of single dif- ficulties and unassisted struggles. The Great Snake of Maine. From the Portland Argus. One year ago an item weot the rounds of the papersin this State tothe effect that Mr. Oscood Knight, the Postmaster at East Deer- ing, saw a snake of extraordinary length and thickness, as he was walking through a piece of woods in that vicinity. It now appears that this reptile, or its twin brother, has again put in an appearance, this time at Gravois Hitl A day or two since a boy named Weymouth, while following a path along the foot of the hill,was almost puralyzed with fright to see, a few rods in front, a enake fullv ten feet long and at. least six inches through inthe middle. The monster opened its inouth wide enough to takeina ral-bit, and the boy, turning his back on the fearful sieht, fled for bome like the wind. The same day aSawyer boy, living in- Fal- mouth, driving along the road in that locali- ty, saw this huge snake cross the road and make off into the weods. He states that the reptile made as much noise going through bushes asa dog would. The snake has also been seen by several men, but none of them cared to make a very close investigation.

The Grounds, the Tenters, the Daily Programme, the Attending Cler- gymen, Etc., Ete. At the Marvin Camp Ground, situated about four miles northwest of Eden Station on the Wabasb, St. Louis and Pacific Railway, a very busy scene has been presented to-day. The first regular service of the camp meeting for the summer of 1881 will be held this evening and arrivals have been pouring in since an early hour this morning. The erection and arrangement of tents has kept the people busy all day, anda village of white canvas has sprung up on the beautiful hill where this series of meetings is annually held. MARVIN CAMP GROUND comprises fifty-two acres of land lying on the north side of St. Charles Rock Road, about ten miles from St. Louis. A railroad running diagonally through this plat from the northeast to the southwest divides it into two unequal parts, each rising gradually,and each being covered with an ample grove of natural trees. The northern rise is the larg- er, andit is upon this that the tents are itched and the services areheld. This gent- y sloping hillside bas been regularly laid out by the Sraryin Camp Ground Association, to whom it belongs. Approaching from the south you enter a large court 250x300 feet, in the center of which is situated the Jarge tent where the public services are held. This tent has a seating capacity of 15,000. At the north side of the court, running east and west, is Kavanaugh avenue, from which Wesley avenue on the east, Marvin avenue in the center and Boyle avenue on the west of _the grounds extend northward, dividing his portion into four nearly equal sections. On either side of the large court and along the avenues are arranged the temporary homes of THE TENTERS. At the southeast corner of the plat is located the tent of J. C. Essex, and then comes the St. John’s Church tent, which § is occupied by the St. John’s M._ Kk. Church congregation, and the preachers’ tent, the general headquarters of the clergy on the grounds. Mr. Uzzeils,R. M. Scruggs, Mrs. Paine, Mrs. Critchmer, Miss Smith, Messrs. Wilkerson, J. B. Legg. Samuel J. Cupples, Chas. Scudder, Chicks, B. A. Hick- man and Thomas have tents in the order of their name. Rev. Dr. Wilson will occupy Mr. Scruggs’ tent this season, and Miss Gray will beentertained by Mr. Hickman’s people. Directly across the court from these are the dining tent, the Centenary M. E. Church tentand the tents of Mrs. Wash, Messrs. Doyle, Rodenscudder, Eaches, W.R. Vaughn, Ramsay, Miller, Berry,Westliake,L. H.Baker, and Garret. Facing the south on Kavanaugh avenue are thetents of Jno. W. Bird, J. L. Boogher, Geo. McConnell, Willis Horde, Jno. P. Boogher, Mrs. Greene Larimore, Jno. LL. Ferguson, Dr. Henderson’s sons, C. C. Anderson and Rev. J. J. Lewis. Facing weston Wesley avenue is the tent of Jno. Larimore ,which is a very large oneand will be occupied by the First M. E. Church con- gregation. Across the avenue from this are Jno. P, Perry, Mrs..Etter, Messrs Reve, Shelton and Tidwell and H. 8S. Lipscomb. The tenters on the east side of Marvin av- enue areR D. Garrison, Dr. Yost, W. T. Gay, Mrs. Shackleford, Mr. Veil, Vick- roy, Mr. Yeager,'and W.T. Alkirs. Facing these are Rev. Mr. Berriman, Mr. Strawford, Geo. M. Cook, Mr. Massey, Samuel Kennard, Mr. Allen, I. L. Baker, Geo. H. Baker, Ro>v. J. Godfrey and Wm. F. Hooker. Facing east on Boyle avenue are the tents of Mr. M. R. Collins, P. C. Chew, Mrs. Allicott, Mr. Humpbrey and John R. Wilson. In the SERVICE TENT, the rostrum from which the ministers will speak is situated at tne south end, and the natural rise of the ground brings the speaker in clear view of all present. At the evening services this tent will Le hghted by the use of three large headlights. Of these, one is situated at the northeast and one at the northwest corner of the pavilion, being so placed as to throw light di- agonally toward the front. The third is set outside of the tent,and is so adjusted as to throw a strong light upon the canvas above the speakers’ heads. Below is given the daily routine that will be observed at the grounds during the meeting: Rising bell Will ring at 6 a. m., and at 6:45 the bell will again ring for family prayers In the various tents. At 7 o’clock the third bell will an- nounce breakfast, and at 8 o’clock services]will be held atthe stand. The morning preach- ing services will occur daily at 10:30 o’elcck; 12:50 will be the dinner hour, to be followe at 3 p.m. with preaching. The evening ser- vices wil] begin at 7:30 tnrouzhout the meet- ings. On Sunday and thereafter hacks will leave Marvin camp ground at the conclusion of the evening services. thus enabling vis- _— to reach the city after each night ser- vice. The boarding tent will be run by Mr. Secrist, of the Kirkwood Hotel, and it is posuese by the association that no one shall ave cause tocomplainin any particular of the treatmentin the victualing department. For the accommodation of those who may de- sire to visit the meetings in their own convey- ances, acorral forthe care of horses anda carriage yard have been provided, and effi- cient committees appointed to superintend them. AlJl arrangements for the physical comfort of every one onthe ground will be perfected before 7:30 this evening, when the camp-meeting will be opened. At that bour Rey. J. G. Wilson, Presiding Klder of the St. Louis District, will conduct preaching ser- vicesin the large pavilion. The clergymen who will be present and assist inthe meetings during the coming week are Rev. J. G. Wil- son, Rev. Wesley Browning, Rev. J. C. Ber- riman, Rev. Thomas M. Finney, Rev. John H. Headley, Rev. F. M. Morris, Rev. I. R. Hicks, Rev. 8S. W. Emmery, Rev. D. J. Mar- quis, Rey. C, E. W. Smith, Rev. J. J. Watts, Rev. W. G. Miller, Rev. W. V. Tudor, Rev. Jno. D. Vincil, Rev. J. E. Godley, Rev. E. M. Bounds, Rev. W. R. Mayes and Rev. J. W. Cunningham, all of the St. Louis District. There will also be present Rev. E. R. Hend- rix, D. D., President of Central College, Fay- ette, Mo.; Rey. J. W. Robinson, of Manches- ter, Mo., and Rey. C. O. Jobnes, of Charles- ton, Mo. The camp-meeting will be continued until the evening of Thursday, August 11, and its friends are very sanguine in their hopes that a profitable and delightful occasion wil] be en- joyed. Trains will leave the Union Depot at 9:10 a. m. for the accommoda- tion of those who wish to attend the day services and at 4:20 and 6:30 for those Who wish to attend the evening servi- ces. A speeial extratrain will leave Eden for St. Louis at 11:15 p. m. on Sunday for the / benefit of those who attend the services on that day. Commutation tickets may be procured atthe Union Depot, entitling the older to transportation by rail from St. Louis to Eden by rail, and by hack from Eden to Marvin. Under these very convenient ar- rangements itis thought that the attendance each day from the city willbe large and an unusually interesting session will be enjoyed. EAST ST. LOUIS.

One of the assistant teachers ofthe Middle School,who is noted for the huge proportions of his anatomy, but who objects to seeing his name in print, isim serious trouble with a neighbor named Mrs. Welsh. The trouble, it seems, arose about a little pet pig owned by Mrs. Welsh, who resides near Fifth street and Illinois avenue. The pet, it seems, took special delight in roaming about the premises of the teacher, who resides in that locality and who decidedly objects to swine of all shapes and sizes. A few evenings ago the little piz paid its usual daily visit and received a rough reception. Mrs. Walsh heard its squealing and hastened to the scene in a very wrathy state of mind. The manner in which the teacher’s family was abused and himself com- pelled to seek his house _ excited the | admiration of the lookers-on kd the ire of the Middle Sebool assistant, who repaired to ’Squire Graney’s office this morning and swore out a warrant for Mrs. Walsh’s arrest. The case will be witnessed by all the residents of the vicinity of the stock yards, as they are more or less interested in the decision. Eminent Dr. H. H.

To-day just as the boat began to pull out a larze del- egation of late comers heaved in sight, and the usual scramble began. A drove of hogs was just then crossing the levee, andthe excur- sionists and the porkers soon got mixed, producing a regular ridiculous to look at.

Two little girls, both victims of spinal disease, and who were frequent excursionists last year, took their first trip of the season to-day, and were received as old friends by nearly all on board. There were two pairs of twins, any number of baby carriages and the usual amount of squalling, romping and good humor. A long run was taken—thirty miles down the _ river. About noon refreshments, consisting of tea and coffee, were distributed by the ladies, and the ex- cursionists opened their hampers and lunch- ed in al] possible places. Dr. Kingsley and Mr. Mastbrook had their hands full tending to the wants of the large crowd. The number of we who went out to-day probably reached 1,400. No unpleasant in- cident happened to mar thetrip. The excur- sionists return to the city at5:30 p.m. This will probably be the last trip of the season. The managers can secure the Chouteau no longer and they are in doubt whether they can secure another boat which is suitable. Co]. Carpenter has advertised for a boat, and he will be able to tell by Saturday whether a trip will be made next Thursday or not. In the meantime the barge subscription goes bravely on. The fund has now reached the neighborhood of $4,000. The Mission will have its own barge next season, and will be able to make two or three trips weekly, instead of one, at atrifling advance. The trips this year have been largely defrayed by subscriptions. | The managers furnish the following list of those who have given to the cause during the | summer: Famous (one trip), $198 50; George E. | Leighton, $100; Samuel Cupples, $100; N.

Who They Are and How They Make Their Living. - — — Some Statistics as to the People Who Live Upon the Waters. When St. Lous is as old a town as London our **waterside characters’’ will probably be as well developed. Even now the class is forming with a distinctness which proves, among many other things, the effect of the environment upon the appearance. All the river men who have been river men long enough to acquire the distinctive class look are clear of eye, slightly lantern-jawed, more or less sallow, and ail of them, without any exception, take to drink as they take to water. For some time past a POsT-DISPATCH re- porter has been engaged in winning the af- fections of a jolly young waterman of sixty or thereabouts, who wins a precarious liveli- hood upon the river, partly by catching ariftwood in its season, partly by fishing, and partly out of that indefinable revenue which seems to accrue to everybody who works in water. His homeis on the Illinois shore, justat the mouth of a little creek north of Venice, and he frequently rows over to this side to victual himself. The reporter invited himself home with John Dee yesterday afternoon, and traveled with bim in his scow, after making him cer- tain offerings of whisky and tobacco. **How is business?’ asked the scribe. ‘‘Miserable,” answered John. “I’ve been _ thinking of dropping down the river and try- | ing some other town, or getting a tow up stream.” | “Why, whatis wrong?” “Well, there is nothing to catch just now; I’ve gotto live on fish myself, old woman, but now when I want any money to buy liquor or tobacco, or sich, d——n me, but I bave got to cut willows or work inthe har- vest field for it.”’ ‘People don’t eat fish in summer.” “No; we sell lots of fish in Lent, but the | business bas gone to kindling wood since they took to bringing fresh sea fish into town by We can’t get red snapper and trout and sea bass in this river, and if we could they Our main catch is buffalo and cat-fish, and if we could sell all we take there would be a decent living in it. ’Long in the spring I’ve made as high as eight and ten summer I drop down to nothing. If I wasn’t a basket-maker as well as fisherman I’d starve.’ **You get queer things out of the river sometimes ?’’ “Yes, nobody knows,” said the old man, ‘‘what lies down at the 0Obot- tom there,’ and he gazed ‘‘Itis only tishermen who can tell what queer fish there areintheriver. I’ve pulled out animals that nobody knew what they were. Things with scales and fish that pents, and all manner of queer things.’? ‘*] fancy your queerest take is floating ‘‘Itis.

There were his wife and two crandchildren, all three of them looking as though the miasmas of the stream had sat- urated their beings. They were chill-proof The house-boat had two a general sleeping chamber and a kitchen, either of them convertible into a parlor ora wash-room without notice. A muddy-looking week’s wash was strung upon a fisbing line tied to a tree onthe bank anda standard of the boat, and there was the same odor of past fish meals about the place which one gets near a king-fisher’s nest. The thought rose unwillingly that the flesh was affectedl by the dirt they ate, and the reporter whether the cannibals would find as _ little flavor about peo- ple of this sort as the av- erage man dovoesin a fish-eating duck. Of course thev are bound to no place. As soon as they have fished out one partofthe riyer, or whentoo many ofthe boat-houses get to- gether, they simply pullup and move upor down stream to anew place. The younger men take their skiffs in the summer and go on long expeditions up into the smaller rivers, where their better appliances for catching fish find them a market among the country people. Itis a lazy, idle life, requiring little but patience and strong tackle, an et it supports nearly five hundred people in St. Louls. There are overa hundred fishermen, and almost all of them have families. The other familiar waterside character, and the one which the people know best, is the roustabout, who explains invariably that he is steamboating it. The roustabout is the child of slow navigation. In the old broadhorn days his then equivalent was a valuable member of society; but the rooster of to-day cares little forthe meretricious graces of the world. Heisone ofaclass apart. Generally a negro, he may be a white man with negro affiliations; but a white man never thorough- ly affiliates with the black. White women sometimes do. The rooster passes his time rincipally upon the skid-piles along the evee lookipe at the sky. When he does work which he does when he gets hungry, he works, very hard; only he can understand but one method of management. Unless the mate stands ready to beat him toa pulp for diso- bedience he does not think that anything fur- ther than elegant idleness is demanded of him. Inthe spring the levee swarms with these men, and they are coming and going the river closes in the winter. Their work is by no means steady, all through their own fault, and their average pay, as far as a reporter could learn from half a dozen of them, isadollar a day. Few of them, either white or black, are married with any degree of permanence, but they manage to get along, and to support a family too. When the winter comes, they desert the river and go intothe pork- houses, which need large forces of men, just as the boats discharge them, for the winter packing, and hence the filled out. It is probable that the rooster works altogether about eight months in the year, seldom making two successive trips on the same boat. It is the ropstabout that has moulded the balance of the Waterside characters into their present shape. The boat mates have all their unsavory repu- tation for bad language and _ tyranny because these are the accepted solutions of the problem. It is from the necessities of the case that the circumstances arise. The mates are invariably hard hitters and great consumers of whisky. They can get more tell- ing profanity - within a given mark than an man who has not been on the river coul realize. These gentry are mostly whites, but cone a darky who has developed a cullartalent for head-breaking and abuse ® promoted to the second mateship, and then the boat becomes a hell upon earth the only relieving element being that the roosters do not know how badly they are being treated. Yet another class of waterside charac- ters are the small keepers, another roustabout system. eens of the rooster, and the rooster into the | _ muddy flood as though be would explore its | secrets. i SWIFTLY SERVED © BY SMILING SALESMEN.

The news shook legal circles to their center and a committee was about to be appointed to pur- chase crape to adorn the judicial buildings in the usual deathly way. But the rumor proved to ve without foun- dation. The Counselor was met in the street at noon by a PosT-DISPATCH re- porter. who asked him about his alleged in- timacy witb Bradlaugh. ‘“T don’t know him at all, sir; never saw him.’’ 3 ‘‘Have you taken any interest in his case?” ‘*T don’t know anything more about him than I have read in the newspaper, and I never read that, sir.”’ ‘‘Were you ever solicited to stand for the borough of Northampton?”’ “Never, sir.”’ ‘“‘Were you ever solicited to stand for a borough ??”? ‘“‘Not one, sir—not even for Congress or the Legislature?”’ “Then you haven’t any personal opposition to Mr. Bradlaugh’’”’ “Not at alli—notatall. I don’t know any- thing about Mr. Bradlaugh’s objection, or objections, to taking the oath, but I imagine it is on a religious ground.’’ The reporter suggested that it was. ‘*Well, he’s a very good man, and I think he onght to have his seat. I understand he was in thistown about three years ago, butlI never met him. I never saw him and I don’t know the gentleman personally.” SEE McElrath’s stock of white vests selling at reduced prices, 509N, Sixth street. ee eee cr ee ee Max Gumpert Again.

Southern Orders for Wheat— Exchange eee Few Remarks on ould. Foreign advices were encouraging to-day. Liverpool and Paris wheat was firm, and wheat on passage strong at 6d advance. Corn was also firm. ‘*These corn shorts,’’ said a well known broker, ‘‘fremind me of Enoch Arden, with a slight change inthe lines—A scalped short waiting fora rain. No rain from day to day.” The bent of speculators’ minds this morn- ing was shown by the following short con- versation heard between halfa dozen or so ‘*Hullo! want “Yes, want to within fifteen minutes’ time: to do anything in vearcorn?’’ buy it.”’ ‘**so do I.”’ A large trade is expected with the South in wheat and corn by St. Louis dealers, as the prospects for a yield in these cereals South is poor. One firm in this city mle held orders for forty-five cars wh eat for shipment to Southern millers. This all for No. 3 red. Billy Hawk considers himself the most un- fortunate fellow in the ‘‘flour corner.” First he had a narrow escape while hunting from the embraces of abear. Then he got into a railroad accident. Now he is surned out. But the beautiful smile of resignation, tinged with a slight gleam of hope, contiunes to illume Billy’s countenance. ‘“There’s more wheat than last year, and I’m betting on it!” exclaimed Phil Taylor. ‘‘One man last vear shipped us 6,300 bushels from 200 acres; this year he ships 1,400 bush- els. There’s more wheat, and if you don’t think so, read the Republican.’’ Here his wonder-stricken auditors discovered that Phil was not crazy but sarcastic. The Wheat Inspection Committee, having prepared type samples of standard crades of wheat on a basis of this year’s crop, pre- sented them to the Board of Directors at their meeting to-day. There was no material change in the grades as made up from those of last year. fully prepared type samples of flour, but wil] — them at a future meeting of the oar: .
