RAVENDEN SPRINGS. The Gem Resort of the Mountains— Glimpses of a New City. Special Correspondence ef the Post-Dispatch. RAVENDEN RaANDOLrU CO., Ak., August 25, !§§1.—In pursuit of my business I have traveled for over a month from St. Louis, through severa] States, into Tcxas. During the time I sawina paper of your city a letter from these springs, signed “Traveler.’”’ Attracted byit I concluded to visit the place on my return, to see for my- self whether the statements made were correct. A stayof several dovs and close observation justifies me in savine that the that letter, in the main, are true, particularly as to curative propertics of the waters and the location ofthe springs. Indeed, I desig- nate Kavenden asthe gem the Moun- tains.

Terms at the Southern are moderate for the accommodations afforded. There is one other smaller hotel and several private boardine-houses: so visitors can have their choice of any kind of entertainment at prices to suit their taste or purse. The loca- tion of the town, no doubtto bea city ina few vears, is all that could be desired fora health and pleasure resort, as weilas for business. It is laid out afterarevular and well-surveyed plan, With avenues, streets, parks, business and resklenve lots, hotel and church reser- vations. There are some of the finest resi- cence lots I have scen In any part of the coun- try. These are being rapidly bought by peo- ple who wish to spend the summers here with their families. as also by capitalists for investment. Besides the hotels, boarding- houses and private residences, there are many business houses already built. There ‘would have been a creatinany morcif people lumber.

The sound of the ham- mer andsaw is heard from early dawn until night in every direction. here are now at Ravenden fully twelve hundred people, ineluding residents and visitors, aud the numberis daily increasing by arrivals from severa] States, and many fromthe immediate surrounding country. These iatter generally camp out, bringing their tents and supplies, giving the locality where they stop the appearance ofa huge vamp-meeting. All indications show thatthe population will rapidly increase. especjally as thesurvey ofthe proposed railroad from (’]KLean,on the Iron Mountain Road, will speedily be made and woek commenced soon afterwards. The demand for supplies and merchan- dise is already very heavy, and several merchants, some of whom are my customers, are reaping a wood harvest in cash trade. Not only is this demand from residents and visitors, but the surrounding country is rich en land, crops and stock, and will supporta trade equal to any country place. When the railroad is compicted, Which is expected in a few months, the tratiic will be fmmense, as the wagon trade with cotton, crain, etc., will oome from a hundred miles up into Missouri, and long distances from surrounding coun- trv in Arkansas,to sell produce and buy sup- plies. tt willbeatlarce shipping point for cattle and stock of every kind.

There is afemale barberin Bradford, and we are not surprised that she has the heft of trade: that men shave who never shaved be- fore, and these who always shaved now shave the more. Why, they justtumble over each other to get her chair, and the lucky man just straightens himself out and puts himself under the influence of her hands asif she was a female doctor. When she runs her tingers around his face and tickles him under the chin with the lather brush it makes his blood grow hotand bis toes tingle, while his scalp prickles like an electric brush. Then when she slips one arm under his head and grabs hold of bis off ear, and draws the razor to starboard, he. feels like it’s bad on the nerves, but it’s nice. Then she hauls his face over toward her, and leans forward, bringing his nose up against her, and proceeds to clean the off side of his head. That is the timethe man calls up all bis pa- triotism, and his courage, revites the Dee- laration of Independence, and dreams of houris and the harem ofthe ©ld Man of the Mountains, and gets so weak that he takes hair oil, bay rum ana a shampoo, and has his bair cut twice.

Terrence Cogolly. of New Jersey, who has just ceased fasting after an abstinence of for- iv-three days, leaves Tanner and Griscom awayinthe distance. Tanner’s mouth fairly watered. in anticipation of the watermelon which awaited the completion of his task, and Giriscom bad a dainty meal allready when the clock struck twelve on the last day of bis fast, but Conolly didn’t want to stop at all, or rather he wanted to keep on ssop- ping. Ile had to be urged to swallow a little beef tea, so wyerfectly contented was he inthe midst of his refraining from anything solid. He preferred fasting to feast- ing. But then he had an altogether cifferent objectin view. Tanner and Griscom amed for money and notoriety, while Terrence aimed to eure consumption.

The number of bridesmaids at fashionalde weddings seems to be inereasine. echt cream-colored ladies attended Miss MeGare}- Hogg to the altar onthe occasion of her changing her name to Saumarez. Ten of the same tint supported Miss Rose Nicholl dur- ing the ceremony necessary for her becoming Mrs. Kennard; anda like number (ofa dif- ferent hue) saw Miss Foljambe apd Mr. Arthur Leveson-Gower throvghthe opera- tion. Noone objects to th numbers, ex- cept it be the bridegroom, Who has to cive a EE = = oe ee ee pretty ctrl of 18, of Italian descent, living on West Lieventh street. The dark, handsome, melancholy face of the Zulu prince fascinatg her; the eager gaze of the voung lady attra ed his attention. Attraction resulted in ; quaintanee.. “The prince learned that M Corsini was well ectucated, eminently respeé€?- able and likelyto be rich. He declared Ker Jove. The maiden acknowleeged an affection for him. Mr. Corsini failed tosee the eligibilltv of Kano. Ile did not Want the prince for a son in-law, he said. In fact, he would a great deal rather have a bricklayer. He threaten- ed to complain to Manager Bunnell of the Museum. Kanofled He went as far a; Brooklyn, where he joined the branch of Bunnell’s Museum, 924 Washineton street. He was true to his New York love, and when she followed himto Brooklyn be folded her to his dusky bosom and swore thatan army ef fathers should not parttheim. They sat to- cetber in dark corners and passages of the museuin, and people coming in and going out tumbied over them, until Manager Bunnell ‘said they were becoming a burden, and that thev had better get married aud have done with it. It was finally decided that the wed- ding should take place in Brookivnon Wednes- dav afternoon; but on Wednesday jmorn- ing Mr. Corsini had his daughter arrested, and she was locked up in Jeiferson Market prison all night. When the case was ealled on Thursday morning Miss Corsini pleaded with her father so earnestly that she softened his heart, and be would not appear against her. He took her home and asked her to give up her lover: but this she refused to do, and, after a some- what violent scene, Mr. Corsini told her that if she married Prince Kano she Was no longer bis daughter and need never ask him to for- vive her. The unhappy girl hurried over to Lrooklvn and told her lover the state of af- fairs. He was equal to the occasion. He engaged the services of two ‘friends, Uskali, a Zululike bimself, and Charles Richards, «a white man, and, a8 s00n as he had assegaied u party of English soldiers who were intro- duced on the stage for the purpose, the bride :nd bridegroom, with Richards and Uskali, hurried tu the residence of the Rev. C, J. Page, 518 Union street, where thev were speecily made man and wife. Uskali handed the cleryyman $8, Kino hastened back to the museum to kill some more soldiers and heip bury those already dead, and Miss Cosini lo-t no time in going over to New York to show her father the marriage certificate... She was dressed in a dark blue gown and satin over- skirt, and diamonds sparkied in her ears. The bridegroom is 21 years of age, and, though a prince, is industrious, for he says the honeymoon must be passed in the museunt, sothat his business wiil not be suspended. Mrs. Kano was with her hus- band yesterday, and appeared to be very hap- py and contented. A Recipe for Koumiss. From the New York Mail. It is generally believed that koumiss can be made of mare’s milk only. But we are as- sured thatthe koumiss prepared by the ful- lowing receipe is equal in all respects to the best imported: Into one quart of new milk put one gill of fresh buttermilk and three or four jumps of white sugar. Mix well and see thatthe sugar dissolves. Put ina warm place to stand ten hours, when it will -be thick. Pour from one vessei to another un- til it becomes smooth and uniform in consist- ency. Bottle and keep in a warm place twenty-four hours: it may take thirty-six in winter. The bottles must be tizhtlv corked and the corks tied down. Shake well five minutes before opening.

He had no sooner left thana masked figure stole forth from beneath a mass of crimson drapery. **The Chinse pavilion to-morréw night at twelve!” said the stranger, ‘Bravo: bravo! wrt 1 yon Steinberg:” And he, too, vanished. A few minutes before 12 o’clock on the fol- lowing night, Capt. von Steinberg, wearinz his wax mask, unlocked and entered the Chi- nese pavilion in the royalgarden. Theinsicde shutters of the windows were closed, so that he ventured to produce amatch and light a wax taper, taking care to place a shade over it,so that the room should be very-dimly lighted. After completing the arrangemeats he glanced around and started on seeing the figure of amannearthetable. The stranger was dressed in the ‘uniform of an aid-de- camp and wore a mask upon his face. ‘*‘Who are you’’? demanded Ernest, ad- vancipng to thé intruder. ‘*You have anticipated asimilar ques ion,’’ replied the mask. “But Ll have a right to know,” said Ernest. ‘*So have I,’? was the quiet answer. ‘Sir,’ said Ernest, placing bis hand on the hilt of his saber. “*I] wear a sword.” ‘So do I,’’ replied the mask: ‘*butI reserve it forthe enemies of my country.” ‘“Whoare you’ Iimplore you to tell me,” said Lrnest. *Ah, now you speak in a different manner. I, sir, am Captain von Steinberg, at your ser- vice, aid-de-camp to His Majesty King Louis of Bavaria.’’ ‘*The deuce you are!’? thought Ernest. ‘*But, contidence for confidence,’’ said the impostor. ‘**Now, you must tell me who you are, and by what right I find you in the roval pavilion at this hour.” **By the very best in the world,’’ replied Ernest, boldly. “I,sir,am King Louis of Bavaria,’ and he lifted his outward mask, displaying the features of the King. ‘*Pardon me,sire,” said]tbe stranger,falling on bis knees: *“‘but making my rounds in the garden, | foundthe postern gate unlocked, and fearing treachery to your royal person, deemed it my duty to gy | watch fn the pa- vilion, of which, as your Bajesty is aware, | have a duplicate key.”’ “Zounds, man! you haven’t locked the + npg have you’ asked the pretended iing. **No, sire: it remains as I found it.’ “Then, my ood fellow, there is n0 harm done,’ said Ernest. ‘‘And IT’ll tell youa secret; Lexpectalady here every instant, who has accorded me a private interview. The best service you can render me is to leave me to myself.” “A hintfrom your rcyal lips is a com- mand,” saidthe pretended Ernest. ‘*Tnit your Majesty’s suit may prosper is the warm- est wish of your most devoted subject.” The stranger vanished. Before Ernest had an opportunity to frame any hypothesis with regard to this myste- rious being, the door opened cautiously and admitted the Baroness. She threw herself at once at the feet of Ernest. ‘Rise, lady!” said the pretended mon- arch. “I would rather be at your feet— rise ‘’’ ‘“‘Not,’’ said the Baroness, ‘till your Majesty pledges your royal word to par- don mein advance for whatever I may con- fess.’’ ‘*I freely pledge you that,” said Ernest, aiding the lady to rise. “Know then,’ said the Baroness, “that I am an ungrateful woman. Your Majesty dis- tinguished me last night, and held out hopes s0 brilliant that a subject might well be daz- zied by your promise. I was dazzied, and | heard you with pleasure. Butit was only a momentary weakness. In the delirium of the dance you told me that you loved me— my consent to meet you here seemed a con- fession of reciprocal affection; but, in truth my heart is given to another. I love-—I love with all the fervor of my being—not a mon- arch, but a subject.” “A rival?’ said the pretended King, sternly. ‘His name?” ‘*Promise that you sire.’’ ae make no promise in such a case as this.’’ “Then I shall keep my secret,’’ said the Baroness, tirmly. ‘‘And you will love this man—even if I command youto tear his image from your heart??? ‘ | = 4 7 r= — =z J , > , Pe ae : 7S iseeee i ===} “a= —— 7 - .

JOHN M. McGUFFIN, Business Manager. Sworn to and subscribéd before me, the day and year above written, {Seal,) I. G. KAPPNER, Notary Public City of St. Louis. Mccn to the surprise of everybody, the wounded President rallied a little on Satur- day night, and on yesterday his condition - was such as to revive the hope of the coun- .try. He took considerable nourishment and assimilated it properly, and his pulse show- ed a marked change forthe better. To-day’s ' bulletins are still buoyant, and some of the medical men affect to believe that the crisis has been passed and that the road to a per- fect cure has been entered on. ‘The case is still critical and as each relapse has been more severe than the preceding one, it is to be earnestly hoped that the heroic sufferer willbe spared another. At all events the bulletins to-day will inspire hope in every s\mpathetic bosom. Tuk Island of Chio has been jarred by an- other earthquake. The few inhabitants who are left must be impressed ly this time with the idea that Chiois a littic uncertain as a place of residence. — — ~ Iv our St. Louis Fire Department isn’t im- proved it won’t be a great while before our . teading property-holders will be compelled to move to Chicago andtake their property with them in order to get insurance. Tuts drouth in the Westis getting tobea most serious thing. Unless copious rains fall within a week, farmers will be unable to do their fall plowing, and this will result ina shortage of the wheat crop next year. Turs¥ are dull and dreary days, but the war between the big circuses will keep St. Louis alive for a week or two, to say nothing about the wrangle between the insurance men and Mr.SEXTON’S own Fire Depariment. -_— —— —— Dn. TIAMILTON, the New York expert, says that the President is going to get well. itis worth remarking that HAMILTON is not one of the communicative White House physicians. He has wacged his jaw very little. A PRETENSE is made. on week days of sprinkling the roadways in Forest Park, but on Sundays, when everybody goes riding in «ood clothes, the park is given over to dust and desolation. ©! course this is very intel- ligent eee it is reported from New York that Gov. COUNELL and Vice-President ArTHUR have been reconciled through the kind oflices of Mr. CONKLING and if l’rovidence permits the Stalwarts to make a Cabinet this vear the ¢,overnor will have a seat in it. Por the first time in manv weeks the Re- publican party has made a display of morality. The notorious “LO” Sissons, the profes- sional briber of the New York Legislature, has been defeated for State Senator in the Salamanca district. This ix encouraging. ’ Wibk-awake store-kecpers will begin to keep in stock twenty foot lengths of good, stout well-rope. There is no teilinz how soon we may have a demand for this commoiity. And the sooner the Byard of Public Improve- ments tests the carrying power of the lamp poststhe less danger of painful accidents there will be. IN the good old times before the war Judve Lyxcn worked right along summer and isn ~ inter, and never thought of taking a vacation of Orresting. Unless matters mend in criminal whocircles in this city, some of our rash tax- of apayers may be forced to call the old gentle- ofadraun out of bis bonorale retirement and india him once more upon the beneh. van, —_ Sprinj We learn frem the Washington (Critic that éhroy”™" most delightful humorists have the i a. skeletons in their closets.’’ Now look ~ vul for Ett Perkins. He will insinuate in some thoughtless newspaper in a day or two ‘that he lives in a closet himself and gives up ‘wall the room in his palatial residence to his darge and interesting family of skeletons. ss Claimed that Gen, Weaver, who) is_ of i rearing around the State of Missouri claghor- ss ~ ing for a cabbage-leaf currency, is g jng _ gonverts by thethousand.

JERSEY CITY is agitated over rumors of sick cattle slaughtered inthe abattoirs and dealt out to the hungry in that burgh. Here in St. Louis we have improved upon that idea. We swill-feed our cows until they are utterly rotten and poison ourselves with the milk before we assimilate the tainted flesh in the shape of steak and roast. Thus we score one on the Jerseyites. IN the summer of 1762 the longest drouth ever khown in America occurred. No rain fell in New England from the Ist of May to the 14th of September, a period of 123 days. In the summer of 1749 theme was a hiatus of 108 days in the sprinkling department. The country was new then, the forests were abun- dant and there were no comets knocking about the heavens. No murder was committed yesterday, by some strange oversight on the part of the genus rough. If there is anybody about this city that the gentle reader wants to kill, now | is his time to subscribe. With the Circuit Attorney in Pennsyivania, andthe Criminal Judge in vacation, you can have every wit- ness in the case spirited away to Alaska be- fore these Saeiecel get through resting themselves. — THE insurance companies claim that for every dollar they receive in the shape of pol- icies in St. Louis they are compelled to pay out $1 5vin josses. They are willing to con- cede that St. Louis doesn’t pay enough for her Fire Department, but they are able to show thatthe Fire Department doesn’t ren- der ¢nouch service for the $200,000 that it annually receives. That’s a question to be considered right now. We asked for a suspension of public opinion for about three months in the case of Gen. WM. RyYpDER, who cut an old friend to pieces at Hot Springs last week in the dis- charge of what seemed to be a sacred duty to society. The Washington Critic responds: “Very well, we will undertake to suspend public opinion for twenty years, if you wish, provided you willsuspend Gen. RYDER for about twenty We accept the amendment. minutes.” THAT distinguished bigamist, Gen. MOR- TON, has been taken to Richmond, Virginia, to confront his latest victim. A showman in the city has offered the authorities a big sum of money for the ’privilege of exhibiting the old reprobate in a public hall. Itis said that the women are just crazy to see him. They want to study the style of the man who seems to entice the weak sex into his snares even as the industrious spider lures to destruction the thoughtless fly. REFERRING in exfenso to the condition of GARFIELD, the editor of the Cincin- nati Commercial, who has been spoken of in connection with the Berlin Mission, said on Sunday last: ‘*‘We hardly dare say that it is reasonable to entertain an expectation that the President will sur- vive this awful trial, but the white wings of the angel Ilope are not vet folded, and why should not the stars in their courses strive with the prayers of nations, that the forti- tude of the sufferer may be recompensed, and the bravery of manhood and the love of woman rewarded by deliverance from evil?’ We consider it perfectly safe te say that no prettier writing than this has been turned out this vear. Tuk lucid dramatic critic of the (Globe- Democrat seems determined to break up the dictionary business of this courftry. His latest departure in the direction of novel and startling phraseology was flung to the breeze yesterday morning, when he spoke of theat- rical managers who “have not been recalci- trant to the interests of their patrons.” “Recalcitrant” is too good inthis connection to be allowed to go to waste with the rest of the foliage this fall. Itshould be hung up somewhere in a sequestered nook, where an electric mule might use it for a kicking-pad. If the mule in kicking a hole through it, we would move the adoption of the new meaning of the word in the next pic- torial dictionary that floats out the country. succeeded upon IT is claimed by Chief SEXTON, of the Fire Department, that the representatives of the (Underwriters in St. Louis are always growi- ing at him but they are never ready to con- sult with him or make suggestions. They never appear at the bar of the Council to urge heavier appropriations for the use of the department. The Insurance agents say that Mr. SEXTON has a deep-seated prejudice against the cuild, and no man known to be in the business can get near enough to him to ask the time of day without running the risk of insult. We have always found Mr, SEx- TON venial and approachable,and we think It wiil be an easy matter to reconcile him to the Insurance people. We should have perfect harmony between the Underwriters apd the Fire Department. _ AN intellectual giant who prints « nasty little paper with patent intestines, up in Ma- con county,has sworn by hia halidome that he will neither rest nor take physical refresh- ment until he basdriventhe Post-Disparcy squarely intothe Republican party. This is a big job fora little paper that only chirps once a Week toa constituency of about four bundred sonls, The Post-Disratcu is big enough, strong enough, and has brains enovgh’ not to care much about politics. This paper doesn’t receive a dollar’s worth of political patronage by favor, and it doesn’t have to ask permission ofa party chieftain when it wishes to an opinion. The soundness of our Demogyacy can not be questioned. We are for ““«, hard money and local self- gcovernmen/ ye opposed to monope- : . , ‘wh’ Yee talk, athe eee hee AT seeking to control the country. We haul our light artillery around the country, subject to nobody’sorders, and we are prepared to open fire on any fool whom we detect in the act of destroying the American Republic, re- gardless of the color of the party flag that he happens.to be flying at the time. As an evidence of the lack of discipline in the Fire Department it may be mentioned that two members—the GLEASON brothers— are regular paid performers in one of our base ballclubs. They are hired by the city to assist in extinguishing fires. Theyeare allow- ed one day off each week, and by husbanding these holidays they are able to play base ball for three consecutive days at atime. This is all right, no doubt, but it is questionable whether, after chasing the giddy ball around in the hot sun for three days in succession, they are able to render as much servite at a fire as a member of the department who has been taking his natural repose on a chair in front of the engine-house. | ne ot —* Ir seems that some gentlemen of the Dem- ocratic persuasion have conceived the idea that the Washington /’ost¢ is not grinding out sound Jacksonian melodies, and they pro- pose to starta new Democratic daily at the National capital about the 10th of September. Col. WM. H. MCCARDLE, of Vicksburg, Mississippi, an editorial expounder of great constitutional vehemence, is to be the editor. There is still room enough in the journalistic Potter’s Field at Washington for another lit- tle newspaper, close up to the back fence where the tangled jimson weeds mingle with the nodding spear grass and the tumblebug gambols all the day. We trust that all the centlemen connected with the new enter- prise will be able to secure board in Wash- ington at economical rates. COINCIDENT With the spread of Islamism into the heart of Africas, which has noted in these columns before, is the evident effort at an organized propaganda of Pan-Islamism. The Mahometan world is cut up, like the Christian, into divers sects, andthe amalgamation of these denomina- tions under the spiritual headship of the Sultan of Turkey isthe effunt to which all that is wise and horest in Islam is now straining. Old differences are being forgot- ten, old feuds forgiven, the religious hate which the sectarians have cherishedin their bosoms since the days of the Prophet has burnt out at jlast, and there needs but little to crystalize animmense empire out of the scat- tered elements of Mahommedanism. The work of the propaganda has already begun. The Grand Scherif of Mecca has requested all the priests of the Mahometan religion to use every effort to increase the pilgrimage to Mecca this year, and he himself is prepared to make the most solemn exhortations to the bordes which will gather at the tomb of MAHOMET. Shiatesand Sunites will come together on terms of the utmost friendliness and the vear’s work at Mecca may well be re- garded at Europe with interest. It must be remembered that MANOMET him- self called a nation into life out of wan- dering bands of Arabs, and the children of ISHMAEL may be nationalized again. It is always the unexpected which happens m the Orient. A NEW tron-ciad of the largest size is to be built in Germany for the Chinese navy. The Mongolians haye for some time been sloughing off their reserve, and this con- tract is but another evidence of how rapidly the extreme East is wheeling into line with the West. I[t is true that-China has built a wall between herself and the rest of the world—a wall not alone of stone and mortar, but of ignorance and _ preju- dice. At last she is learning that this isoiation is hurting herself more than the foreign devils, and, quick to realize her own profit, these walls are being razed rapidly. China presents a peculiar and interesting phase to the student of ethnology. Its gov- ernmentis a system of philosophy rather than a code of criminal laws, and dangerous as well as misunderstood influences from the outside are resisted as thoroughly as crime 1s punished at home. The Empireisin a state of intellectual quarantine against the West. When the telegraph was invented it was ‘not admitted into China and we bowled about the stupid ignorance and superstition of the Celes- tial, forgetting that it would puzzle even our Caucasian intelligence to make a telegraph code of thirty-six thousand signals to meet the needs ofan alphabet of thirty-six thousand characters.

St. Louis, Aug. 2, 1881. ro the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: This cinder from ‘‘the model fire depart- ment’’ was blown into the columns ot yester- day’s Republican: “The insurance men who proclaimed a couple of days ago that Chicago had the best fire department in the country, and St. Louis the worst one, could not be found yesterday. That $1,000,000 fire in Chicago Friday night was too much for them.’’ Precisely what ‘‘insarance men’’ are meant, inasmuch as the opinions of about all the local agents are one way, cannot be determined. The writer can vouch that one of them was ‘*found’’ in his oflice on that day engaged in paying some of the losses needlessly imposed upon his companies by the blundering of ‘ ‘the best fire department in the world.’’ As to the ‘‘million-dollar fire in Chicago,’’ it was not in Chicago at all, but in the town of Lake. The locality is over five miles fromthe Chicago City Hall. Its water sup- ply is largely from artesian wells. The Chi- cago city department is as responsible for this destruction as Sexton would be for a loss of the packing-houses at the East St. Louis Na- tional Stock Yards. Yetitis by such stuff as is quoted apove that Sexton’s claqueurs foster the delusive notion of the supreme merit of the St. Louis Fire Department in comparison with all others. On the dav above referred to ‘‘Clay’’ is re- ported to have asked, ‘‘Why don’t these insur ance men goto Chicago? Nobody is holding them downor pulling their coat-tails.’’ It may never have occurred to Mr. Sexton that some of the insurance men have been in St. Louis a long time; are directly and indirectly inter- ested inimportant mercantile and manufac- turing enterprises here; have contributed largely both in personal effort and in money to help St. Louis along in the commercial race in which in many particulars she is grievously handicapped; and have some rights as citizens and property owners, if not as insurance agents, that even so lordly a ‘‘fire chiet’’—who outside of St. Louis is understood to carry the city government in his breeches pocket, with the Mayor and a hewspaper or two thrown in~might becom- ingly respect, ~ The agents have frequent sharp reminders that the compames, largé and small, one and all, are disgusted with the condition of things here. They know that the losses must be materially reduced or yremium rates largely advanced. As rates are already higher in St. Louts than they are in New York, Vhiladelphia, Boston, Milwau- kee and some other cities, the agents think they are best serving the interests of St. Louis business men ‘by striving to reduce the losses. The following letterfrom a prominent gen- eral agentto his local agent here—merely a sample brick out of dozens—is pertinent to this discussion ; si , August 26, 1881. ‘‘The companies genetally sare very much exasperated at the condition of things in St. Louis. * * * Inthe event of a failure toin- cyease the rates to a paying basis or to. reor- gunize the Fire Department, the best compa- nies, in my judgment, will pull out. Itis high time that the St. Louis agents bestirred them- selves in this matter, or they will hear some- thing drop.’’ I have the honor to subscribe myself AN INSURANCE AGENT WHO CAN BE FOUND. —— A Question of Forestry.

Sixteen Rebate in Prospect. The only notable change in passenzer rates East to-day is a sixteen dollar rate Grst- class to New York. The second rate is quoted at the central ticket counters gt fifteen dol- lars. The agents of some of the roads deny that a sixteen dollar rate isin existence, but it is generally understood that no customer offering that figure is turned away. Rates to other cities remain unchanged, although some business is reported to have ‘een done over the regular counters below the current rate—first-class to Boston $19. It is probabie that a lower rate on second, class to New York will be introduced: by one others The bulk of East- and the of the roads, and that’ the will follow the lead. ern summer travel is now over, tide is setting in the opposite direction. Scalpers are somewhat left in the latest phase of the Eastern cut, as tickets for New York are only furnished to them at — cy are disposing, however, of several return coupons issuedin New York at rates below in force for several weeks past—31&. the present cut, but the low- est figure quoted by New York has been twelve dollars. As an indication of what may happenin Eastern passenger business, it should be stated that orders have been issued by some of the roaas for the preparation of rebate tickets and prices under that arrangement may drop to very low figures at any time. Vandalia meets over its own the lowest rate offered for points by otner oftices, and claims that it en- tirely ignores scalpers. THE SEMI-ANNUAL CONVENTION, To-morrow the local passenger agents are to meet at the Southern Hotel, but it is scarcely thought tbat the ineeting will have any effect on the rates East, for the passen- cer, like the freight war, has its origin in the fast.. On Tuesday, September 20, semi-annual meeting of the National passenger and ticket agents will be heid here at the Southern Hotel, andafull attendance is looked for. This is a very important body, and its sulb-committees have some business of much public interest to report. There will be action taken upon the transportation, of baggage, the excess features and a system of coloring the coupons of the various roads to distin- cuish the class and road will receive atten- tion. Hitherto the national passenger a¢ents have given St. Louis the coid shoulder in se- lecting a place of meeting, on the ground that she possessed inadequate hotel accommoda- tions, but this vear the New Southern has opened its doors and the ground of complaint which was never justly founded has assuredly been removed. will find five first-class hotels ready to ac- commodate them, and four theaters offering the best attractions in the country.

Manager Pope Improves and Greatly Beautifies His House. ——_ On the night of April ‘) the last performance was civen in the old Grand Opera~house. Mr. and Mrs. McKee Rankin closed the theater with a performance of “The Danites,” and scarcely bad the lights been dimmed, and the last member of the audience left the door, whenthe sounds of hammer and axe rang through the building, and the work of de- molition was begun. Seats were torn from their fastenings, the scenery was hurried from the stage, partitions and foorings were giving way before the blows of numerous workmen, and almost before the thousand or more peo- ple who witnessed that night’s performance were in their beds the old Opera-house had been stripped of its ornamentation and its entire interior wasa total wreck. Daylight looked in through the rafters of the roof, down through the stripped joists of the yal- feries, into the cellar, where men and teams: were already engaged in the work of excava- tion. Next day the destruction was complete and the work of reconstruction was begun. The last lines on the beautiful souvenir satin programmes distributed at the clos- ing performance consisted of the following annovncement to the publiic: “The new Grand Opera-house will open for the reguiar dramatic season Monday, August 2), 1881.”’ The fulfilment of this promise is at hand. Dayand night the work on the new theater bas been pusbed persistently by all the parties interested in it, until] now such progress bas been made that little more re- ‘mainsthantosweep out the establishment and brush the dust from the chairs. For the tious manner in which the work has been curried on, great credit is due not ouly to Mr. Cobb, the architect, and the artisans engaged in the reconstruction, but to Mr. Pierre Chouteau, who, with Mr. John ‘W. Norton, has built the theater, and who has from the very start given his personal supervision and earnest attention to the im- provement and beautifying of the house. Mr. Norton also bas been ‘assiduous in his uttention to the work, and, indeed, nobody who had the slightest interest has been dilatory in helping the New ’ ra-house ajong toits completion. ° e theater as it now stands is a vastim- npr upon the old place of amusement. scene of bewildering beauty has been set down between the four sturdy walls that have been standing for a quarter of a century, and all who look upon the place pronounce it ‘mot only the handsomest but altogether one of the finest and best taeaters in the country. ‘Certain itis a, great deal of care has been taken with it, both in planning and executing _. the work. The design for the present interior was chosen from a large number of plans, and the artists and artisans in ‘perfecting the ideas oof the ar- chitect have labored with a view to surpass all their former efforts in their respective lines. In consequence the whole ‘ interior is finished to a degree of beauty and ‘perfection that is simply astonishing, the « graceful architectural lines harmonizin:e nice- ly with the colors and ornamentations of the _ freseo artist’s brush, amlthe disposition of the material filling up the cround fixor and galleries bein; challenge ad- wod comfort such as to -miration for the convenience which it seems to assure to all who patronize | the play here. As the Opera-house now stands the front remains unchanged, except for the cleanli- ness Which afew coats of light paint have be- stowed upon it. A change will be effecte here, however, in a ‘few days, when the galvanized iron and oth- er necessary material to carry out the archi- tect’s ideas arrive. The old entrances re- main, three in number, but the vestibule has _ been metamorphosed so that the old fre- quenters ofthe house will not be able to recognize it. Itis still as wide as formerly but not so deep. A tessclated flodr, polished wood workand handsome frescoing give the vestibule a very pretty appearance. The box- office ison the right-hand side, and from the elaborately carved window Geo. McManus ' and his assistant, James Hannerty, will ‘alle and smile «as of yore. Three just opposite the main entrance open upon the auditorium, which has been lowered sixteen fect, to the level of the pave- ment. Entering the house the visitor finds himself in the foyer. To the right and left - * \ op . ‘ae . ’ the lower , -~ : ! of the house _ grand stairways, with mahogany balustrades and magnificent newel posts, surmounted by high-branching chandeliers, lead to the sec- ond tier or family circle. The foyer is sep- from the lobby by a four foot high par- and a further separation is ef- by means of heavy crimson curtains. e lobby is sinall, the dress Which runs down as far C the opera boxes, doing away with the » wide seats. the occupants of which uever saw | than one-haif the performance. The circle and parquette are each divided Into three sections, two aisles making the _mecessary division. The same division ex- ‘tends to the fuinily circle and gallery. Dress _ eircle, parquette and family circle are pro- - vided with folding chairy, and all this section may be reserved, in should be a demand seats than are in riion. The seating capacity is d at about 2,600; 1,000 in the callery, 900 the famiiy circle and 700 down stairs. Tue position of the seats is such that there is _ plenty of room for ingress and egress, and no py the complaint wiil be heard that a man has to get his knees under his chin to sitcom- fortably ina St. Louistheater. There are ten Boxes—two proscenium boxes with light pil- tars supporting a canopy,and four opeu bo\ves on each side, surmounted by asingie canopy ‘and separated from the auditorium proper by ‘Tatis of shining brass. These boxes are porated in an unusually handsome manuer. © proscenium boxes are papered in erimson, the others in maroon and govicd. , lam brequins are of crimson and old with trimmings of raw silk and wool in to match. The side walls of the theater the foyer sre hung with curtains of mm, Old gold and black, so that when reons enicr the lobby thay find them- ves hemined in ly a wall of rich a glowing materia!.

The artiste have | wrought delicately around these. The ceiling of the dome is frescoed in imitation of satin in blue and white, the latter color mak- ing the figure, and the whole changing hue as the visitor views it from different standpoints. The cupolas are in the genre style, in eight panels. The center cupola has four panels decorated with medallions treated in stucco, and representing respectively ‘‘Music,” “Poetry,’”? ‘*Tragedy,’? and the general arts. The other panels are orna- mental, aud are displayed ona gold ground. The cove is a general groundwork of gold, and the decoration ts in the —— Annestyle, with figures and tropical leaf work. The moldings are done in gold, white, blue, and black, harmonizing with the ceiling. Over the center of the stage there is a medallion symbolic of Music, alyre ani other instru- ments being judiciously distributed in the picture and tropical plants and flowers ex- tending from the lower portion of it across the surface of the cove. The same floral ornamentation is foundinthe corners. The proscenium arch is beautified by the fleur de lis, gold, blue and silver-white being the prevailing tints. The proscenium boxes are in pearl gray, green and eye the columns being in gold and blue and the canopies in grayish blue with gold figures representing shell work. The moldings are decorated with plain figures in gold, black and blue. The vestibule is fres- coed in the (Jueen Anne style; there are three panels on a buff ground covered witha hight spray of flowers; the panels are ornamental and these with a deep blue border are relieved with tropical plants and bright flowers; the cone is done inthe pearl gray which blends nicely into the light French gray of the walls. The frescoing is indeed a delight to the eye and will be one of the features that will call for special commendation at the opening. Leaving the auditorium the stage improve- ments may be noted. The stage opening is 56 feet, its depth 44 feet. There are two sets of fiy-galleries, and as no scenery Will be kept there exceptsuch as is absolutely required by the play, and as there are no dressing-rooms within its pre- cinets, the space gained is great and the ail- vantages many. The orchestra have two levels, on either of which they are not visible to the audience. Allthe dressing-rooms are in the Sixth street building. The vreen room is here, too. right behind it is the lp stairs are six other dressing - rooms, and down in the basement are two rooms for the ‘‘supers.”’ Adjoining the ‘‘supers,”? quarters is the boiler and engine room, Which is perfectly fire-proof. Behind thut is a small room given upto the dynamo- electric machine for supplying the electric lights, several of Which are now in success- ful operation. Herman Heisler, the St.Louis Edison, who has 225 lamps burning in the city, is suppiying the Opera-house and has a contract with Mr. Norton for twenty lamps. The ventilation of the house is as perfect as could be desired, a large Sturde- vant fan under the stage forc- ing cold air into the audito - rium in the summer and hot air in the winter. Messrs. Noxon, Halleyfana Toomey have paimted forty sets of scenery for the new house, and the curtain, Which presents a mountain icture set in a heavy frame, and entitled, ‘The Land We Live In,’”’ is pronounced the finest piece of work turned eut here. The house will be tighted by electricity, and an electric apninciator placed on the stage will communicate with every room in_ the building. The fire-escape facilities are many. Be- sides the usual exits, there are eight escapes on the first floor, six on the second and two stairways from the gallery communicating with the outside galleries. A tire-proof wall separates the stage from the auditorium, and the curtain will be fire-proof, its composition being wire mesh and asbestos cloth. The carpets, which are rich.and costly, have been furnished by Messrs. Kennard & Sons. star’s room, Pope’s Theater. Manager Pope, recognizing the advantage of keeping abreast of the times, has made several important changesin the intenor of his theater, andit is now one of the most charming houses in the city. Mr. Pope did not begin the work of improvement until about the Ist of August, but it has been pushed forward so rapidly that it was re- opened last night, furnished, and sucb a metamorphosis has been effected that none ofthe old patrons will be able to recognize any more than a suggestion of the old house in the mew one. The exterior has been neatly vrushed up, even the two huge street lamps having re- ceived their share of color and gilding. The doors to the main entrance are painted in im- itation of mahogany with panels and finish- ing of ash. The inner doors in the vestibule are treated in the same way, and the vestibule itself will be papered in a new and beautiful design = of ornamentation Which has been prepared ex- pressiy for this theater in New York City. The ceiling of the vestibule contains mahoga- ny and ash panels, and there is, beside, a warm paperipg of gold and biack intiles that sete oif the place charmingly. Entering the theater, a great improvement is noted. The dress circle has been boxed in from-wall to wall, a partition reaching from floor to ceiling, with small windows ataheight of about four feet, all the way around, cutting off the auditorium from the lobby or foyer and at once acting as a protec- tion to the audience from the noises usually heard about the doorways while it prevents the escape of the sounds from the stage up the gallery stairways. This partition will creutly improve the acoustics of the houvxe. It is, however, only one of the improvements made With a view to this objeci. A fénr foot excavation has been made under the auditorium, and the stage brought out about six feet. These changes,it is thought, will overcome the single objection that has always been urged against Pope’s Theatre—that a person could not hear anything distinctly from the stage. The partition behind the dress circle 1s ornamented in the Queen Anne stvie in mahogany and ash, and the numerous sinal] windows will be curtained in gend’arme blue and old gold. The walls and Jower ceil- ings of the house have been covered with a rich paper of gold and silver. The box walis be- tween the second tier and gallery have been covered with a bold and beautiful effect that is particularly attractive at night. This con- Sists of a tropical scene—palm trees and siupt leaves in a richly decorated vase, Wrought on copper-colored paper and artisti- cally grouped so as to produce an agreeabte and yet striking picture. Another pretty ef- fect is obtained on the walls of the lress circle, where a field dado of gold, broken at intervals by bunches of larve leaves and sprays of ferns, ruusalone the eatire length of the wall. lbut the creutest improvement that has been made in Pope’s, and the one that first meets the eve of the visitor,: bas taken place nearthe stage. In addition to the car- rving forward of the stage, the orchestra level has been so changed that nobody buttbe lbgder i# seen, the remainder of the inu- sivians silting under the stage, facing ther directer. The stage boxes have been meta- morphesed and beautified in a manner that challenges admiration. The side walls have been troken into, next to the dress circie, and three arches with tiny pillars are to be eeen where formérly there was a blank wall. The boxes are decorated in bronze, gold, cream chocolate, mauve, and olive, yold and bronze predominating 80 as to produce a verv pleasing effect. ‘The small pillars in the arches are in St.Louis, Mo..Ch racy, Loe 7 Orders of Publication.

Itcavedin, burying several hundred of the unfortunate Indians, and when the Spaniards essayed bv draftto replace those who had been thus destroyed. the long-suf- fering Indians arose in their might and swept the Spaniards back from all that country. Intheir bitter memory of a century and a half of bondaye they FILLED THE MINES and endeavored to destroy all traces of them. That was the revolution of 1680. It has only been within the present year that the ence famous Turquoise nine Was dis- covered, and now it is being opened by a company. [ teil you this to illustrate how recent are these discoveries and how little all that country has beenexplored. Atthe headof the com- pany which is now working the Turquoise is Tiffany, the New York jeweler. I heard, too, that Lew Wallace bad an interest. The Turquoise ranks third to the diamond in the jeweler’s estimation,and yet for centuries this creat mine has been left undisturbed as the Indians filied it.” ‘*What about White Oaks?” “We come to that wonderfully rich region as we go on down the railroad. The campis eighty-tive miles eastof the road, with the gold country all around it. Further down are the Sierra Blanco, the Os- coras and Gallinas ranges with their silver and copper deposits.

There is a legend | that, as the Spanish soldiers moved nothward in the eariier conquest, three centuries axd, to capture Santa Fe, which was the capital of what was then the nortnern portion of Mexico, they took with them a scatue of the Virgin Mary. One night they camped late end tired, and the image was upset. The next morning when they attempted to lift the | imaze up they couldn’t budge it from the : prostrate position. ‘Mhe soldiers got scared | ancl’ vowed that. if the Virgin would be appeased they would build a_ fine | ehureh when they reached Santa | Fe. At that the miraculous force which | held the statue recumbent disappeared and a boy raised the tmayze. They hauled it into Santa Fe onacartdrawn by bulls. I told - them at the hotel one dayI thought thev had | one of those | bulls that pulled the Virgin into Santa Fe in That image stands to-day in the Fran- tis loaded with | ’ ns, riscan Church in Santa Fe. | jewels and gold, and though the doors stand | | open day and night, the precious thines have never been molested.” ‘*You found Missourians plentifulin the New El Dorado:” : “Amongthe most prominent citizens of | -acorro are Prof. Charlies Longuemare and | (r,eorze Eb.

Among them is the Ivanhoe, in which Ingersoll) is part owner,and to which be referred when I sent his telegram, ‘Il shall be a billionaire, not a willionaire.’ The ore has been assaved, and specimens yielded at the rate of $200,000 to the ton. It seems almost incredible. Inger- soll and those with him have capitalized their mine and are working right along, but are baving sometrouble with the Apaches. In the same range lies the Lake Valley, which was sold last spring to Georve Roberts, John Mackev and George Dailey. The last-named was killed only last week by the Indians. The trio paid $150,000 for this mine, and their in- vestment. in the immediate vicinity aggre- gates +684,000. The owners of the Lake Valley who sold out to Mackey and his associates were three young men, George Taylor, Mar ion Turner and George A. Milier, who had been very poor. Taylortold me that up to the time of making this discovery he had been so poor that for six months he hadn’t had the money to pay fora driuk. Miller has invested half of his share of the purchase money in Government bonds to ‘salt down,’ usipgy the rest for capital to speculate on. Dailey only a few days before his death told Capt. Tim Lee, the special agent of the Unit- ed States Department, that he wouldn’t take TWO MILLION DOLLARS for his interest in these Black Range claims. He considered that he had a bigger thing than the Comstock lode, In this same Black Range lie the old Spanish Santa Rita mines, which a century aco produced a large part of the copper that went into the world’s commerce, the bullion being transported on the backs of donkeys to the City of Mexico and thenee shipped to Spain. Explorations show that in New Mexico the Spaniards and the Indians did the most of their mining. They worked where the richest mineral was to be found. as they naturally would with their primitive contrivances. Soitis actually the fact that inceding New Mexicotothe United States r old Mexico actually gave away the best of her mining country. The evidences of the old time mines abound, and by simply opening these there is developed the presence of rich bodies of ore.

WOMAN Forepaugh’s Prize Beauty—Her Ap- pearance, History —She Personates Lalla Rookhin the Grand Street Pa- | geant. Miss Louise Montague, who has been re- | cently playing an engagement ata Philadel- | phia theater, has been awarded the prize of +10,000 offered by Adam Forepaugh, the vet- eran showman, for the services of ‘‘the nand- somest lady in the land,’’ to personate Lalla Rookbh in the gorgeous pageant which forms a conspicuous feature of his street procession every day. Miss Montague was selected out of some three or four thousand applicants, many of whom Were very beautiful. In mak- ing his choice Mr. Forepaugh’s representative was guided largely bv other considerations than those of beauty alone. Besides a pretty face, they included a symmetrical aud grace- fullticure, respectability and intelligence. Miss Montague 1s a native of New York City, and twenty-one years of age. In 1877 she made her debut in New York as a burlesque actress. Having an excellent voice and be- ing unusually handsome, she obtained good engagements. While she was playing in In- dianapolis her photograph was sent to Mr. Forepauch. At that time the choice had nar- rowed down toa few applicants, but Miss Montague at once secured the approval of Mr. Forepaugh and his agents. Miss Mon- tague signed the contract engaging herself to appear for thirty weeks. She is to be paid the $10,000 in weekly installments. A repor- ter of the Philadelphia Press, who, in com- pany with a pumber of other newspaper men, was presented to Miss Montacue in Philadel- phia, recently had the following interview with her: **] was born in New York,” said Miss Mon- tague, without mentioning the date, which her inquirer was too polite toask. “IT aman opera bouffe performer. I would shrink from ‘an engagement of so public a character if it were not forthe money. I am confident that I shall be successful, and you can sav so if you wish. In fact, you can see that for your- self.”’ “Have you ever heard of Lily Langtry, the English beauty?” was asked. “Ob, yes,’”? was the response, with a toss of the heaa, “but Il ai notintimate with her. She would never do for Lalla Rookh in the street pageant in Forepaugh’s show. I do not know that she was an applicant for this prize, but she his certainly not succeeded in gaining it.” By this time the other gentlemen present had become so jealous of the attention paid by the dazzling beauty to the Press reporter that the latter deemed it prudent to withdraw be- fore blood was shed. Miss Montague will appear on a howdah on the back of an elephant in the street parades in this we J September5. The reporters dif- fer in their statements as to her appearance. The Philadelphia Press man says she has gray eyes and dark hair, while the Philadel- phia North American’s.representative asserts that her eyes are blue and her hair a dark, wavy chestnut. The Philadelphia Times de- scribes her asa small, spirited-looking wo- | man, With bright eyes, an animated face, red lips, perfect teeth, regular features and good higure,. On being asked whether she did not find it rather embarrassing to see sO many news- paper men at once, Miss Montague replied quickly, “Oh, it isn’t so bad as elephant-rid- ing, I suppose,’’ which would indicate that _ to-day in relation to the is applicable alike to all and popular American and Swiss movements.

A Talk With President Fitch, of the Immigration Society. Some Sensible Views on Tributary Growth. The Future Depends on Infiux of Pop- ulation. Mr. Thomas W. Fitch, president of the Harrison Wire Company, was interviewed sus.’? “What were your reasons, Mr. Fitch,” asked the reporter, ‘*for desiring such an ex- hibit?”? “You know the Missouri Immigration Society, of which I am the president, is sup- ported by the merchants, but so far the con- tributions have not been large enough to operate our plans on the extended scale first determined on. In the _ interest of this movement I had frequent communications with prominent business men and although as a rule mostof them showed a perfect appreciation of the value of pro- moting immigration as a business measure, yet I also ran across many notable exceptions. One wealthy man, a former Republican Con- gressinan too, said: ‘A million dollars fora good Republican newspaper, but nothing for immigration.’ One big hardware man said: ‘] don’t now _i that immigration will dome any good.’ A prom- inent street car owner and former Congress - man wrote that he was not ‘inclined to ask bis road to subscribe for any such purpose.’ In fact it became necessary to put the subject before the people ina. thoroughly practical way and one which they would understand. It is well known what vast sums have been spent to people the Northwest, and how thor- oughly wisethe investment wasis shown bv the growth of Chicago. It was therefore a fair comparison to give the geographical location of the twocities and the density oftheir trade populations and then to exhibit the result of this tributary populationin the amount of business done in eachcity. This has been done, and, although expecting a bad showing for St. Louis, I must confess I was astonished when the comparative figures were placed before me.” **Where were the data obtained?” ‘*From none but authentic sources. The manufacturing and industrial statistics we were forced to send to Washington for, as Mr. Gould declined to issue them, fearing, as he said, a similar outburst of pop- ular feeling to that which greeted poor Salo- mon. “Why have vou not distributed them to the public?’ “The charts?” ‘*\ es,?? “That was our iatention. I for one believe in knowing the truth and then going heartily to work to correct the past. I don’t take any stock eitherin the doctrine of predestined, come-any-way sort of greatness preached by certain gentlemen of thiscity. We willin- crease in commercial prosperity just in proportion as we take ® advan- tage of the natural resources atourcommand, and the only method of making these advantages knownis to pub- lish them tothe world fn a practical way. Then the farmer, the artisan and the capital- ist can Jearn of Missouri, and if he sees a rood opportunity to better his condition or add to his wealth he will come among us and augment the general good. It is all very well to talk about inviting capital to this city by such various plans as I have seen published, but my idea about capital is that it always seeks good investment and will come uninvited when the conditions are favorable to making money. Show the manufacturer of the East an in- creasing demand due toa rapidly increasing | population, and it will not be long before he will investigate the chances of success for a factory of bis line of business, It is then our natural advantages will be considered. This banches of com- ‘comparative cen- | tributed to Chicago that merchants there are | kept jumping to meet the requirements ofthe | vrowing territory she has to supply. — the | able to gain influence here be stimulating ve same from Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas, the Indian Terri- | tory and Nebraska, the local industries of St. Louis would be immensely increased, and the commercial statistics of fhe ‘Comparative | Census’? would in a short time show more vratifving figures. Our men have themselves enough vim and enterprise, but it falls to them also to excite the same spirit all over & more active trade with near territory in Missouri. Now take tbis business, for instance, [tbe Ilarrison Wire Company}, approximat- ing amillion dollars per annum in sales. The bulk of our business is in Northern Illi- nois and Indiana, and, like§ us, many of our business men make the larger proportion of their sales in territory geographically tribu- tary to Chicago, If the territory therefore geographically tributary to St. Louis were settled as thickly and an impetus given to enterprise, capitul may be expected to keep up with all legitimutes demands, and our business men enterprising enough to take it all in, and not only that, but also to hold allthe trade they now have to battle for in the Northwest.”? >¥< Sac ESyxs *Youintend then to try to extend the operations of the society this fall??? ‘Yes, sir. I consider a strong, steady stream of immigration into the waste places of this State and adjoining territory the only really reliable standing of the business men of this city, and money spent to secure it the best business investment we can make. I bave, since my conversations with Mr. Allen apd others of the Commercial Club, much {sith in their ability to advance the commercial and industrial progress of the city by the adoption of vigorous means to that end. They are men some of whose names are intimately associated with the past history of St. Louis, and all thotouczhly active business men, and I have no doubt as to their earnestness” ‘Tl understand, then, that you look to the immigration movement as the future hope of the city’? ‘*Youcan so state. Immigration rapidly promoted tothe Northwest bas given Chicago herunexampled progress, and immigration will conferthe same benefits on us. ‘*Ilave you any facts and figures to give in relation to the chart?’”’ the State. We must have ~Uw **] have not at present,for the reasonT have . stated—that is, regarding the business statis- ‘ies; they must first be submitted to the club.” THE COLLECT OR’S CHARGE. He Swoops Down Upon Six Hundred Hotel and Buoarding-House Keepers. Collector Hudson is about to wage War against the hotel and boardine-house Keep- ers. There appearsto heanoble array of six hundred of them inthis city who have steadfastly resisted the fifty cent room ordi- nance,and they are disposed to fizht to the bitter end, the court of last resort. No measure of license has been more unpopular than the room ordinance. It is an outgrawth of the new order of things intrvo- duced by the scheme and charter and imposes upon every hotel and boarding house keeper renting out more than four rooms an annual license of 50 cents for each room. Fornearly four years the Collector and the hotel and boarding-house keepers have been at loggerbeads over the matter and the litiga- tion thus farhas favored the city’s claim. The tinal appeal is now pending in the Su- preme Court, but the C ollector cannot wait upon that sternwheel department of justice and he is forced to adopt. the stern measures provided by the ordinance for the punishmert of delinquents. The 600 ickers have #8 been duly notified that unless they pay up all arrears and the license forthe coming year during the next few days, the cuses will be reported to the Police Court and the ordinance will be en- forced at that bar. The delinquents can be required to pay double the amount of license due in each case or a maximum sum of $500. About fifty boarding-house keepers elected not to join in the fight and have paid their license-dues regularly since the opera- tion of the obnoxious ordinance. For then a special reward is laid up within the pearly gates where collectors gather not and board- ing-houses are unknown. The large hotel- keepers have been prominent in resisting the license, and they look yet hopefully to the Supreme bench at Jefferson City for relief. DELINQUENT MERCHANTS. Another bold stand is to be taken by the Collector this week. There are no less thun 1,000 merchants delinquent upon their stock and sale license, due July 1. The merchants’ ordinance ca'ls for payment of $2 per thou- sand on stock and $1 per thousand on sales. The penalty is the assessment of double the amount on stock and =~<sales’. or fine of $25 to $500 for each offense. The mer- chants have been notified that they must pay up atonce orface the musicin the Police Court.
