The Telegraph Operators Seem Determined —The Western Union in This City Not Crippled to Any Degree—The Strike in ‘New York and Other Cities. In the vicinity of the Western Union tele- graph office at Third and Olive streets, there is nothing to-day to recall the exciting scenes of yesterday. A pair of stolid-looking police- men are stationed at the doorways to the building, for what purpose they them- selves do not seém to know. ‘The striking operators, true to their programme of gentlemanly behavior, have refrained from gathering in the neighborhood of the scene of their late employment, as is customary with miners and tradesmen on like occasions. Not an operator was to be seen all morning on Third street, bétween Pine and Locust. A visit was made to Lightstone’s Hall, at elevemo’clock, but the hall was closed and in the large saloon down stairs there were no operators. “The telegraph men don’t meet until two o’clock, and they don’t come in here anyhow,” said the barkeeper. At Central Turner Hall, where many of the meetings of the brotherhood have been held, not a member of the craft was to be seen. They were not visible at the hotels, and oniy a very few appeared upon the floor of the Merchants’ Exchange. They were non-commitial and rather evaded inter- views with reporters. One of the Eck- ert brothers was so very wmysteri- ous that he said he would not Sfeel that he was doing right in answering the question whether the Brotherhood met this afternoon at Light- stone’s or Central Turner Hall. Mortimer Shaw, the secretary of the union, was seen for a few minutes. He had nothing to add to what had _ been previously pub- lished, except that the strikers were more determined each hour, and were prepared to stick out for two or three months, if necessary. ‘“The public,” he said, ‘thas been fully apprized of the nature of our grievances, and our argument was submitted in the circular from the executive com- ittee, published in vyesterday’s Post- ISPATCH. ‘The issue is made up. We made certain demands. The company re- fused. Wesitruck. It 1s a desperate fight on both sides. They have the. money, we have right, justice and reason on our side. We made our demand peacefully, we quit work peacefully, and we will conduct our- sélves in a law-abiding and orderly manner. The public is the jury, and with them we rest the case. am satisfied that the strongest oint with us is that the Brotherhood has in ts ranks the best operators in the country and the Western Union cannot get alon without them. We may not get all we aske for, but we will get something, and a recog- nition of the Brotherhood will be one of the concessions.” At the Western Union. “‘Wehave sixty good, experienced opera- tors at work up stairs at this hour,” said Manager Brown at eleven o’clock, ‘‘and they are not beardiess youths and amateurs from the colleges and inexperienced women, as some of the papers have stated. We have more applications for positions than we can possibly utilize, and commenced last night to assist our less fortunate neighbors of the Westand South. In my opinion there is no strike. Alotof our people quit work and we filled their places. If the unem- loyed cail themselves ‘strikers,’ that is heir right. ‘They are no more to us than so many dry goods clerks or day laborers, in whose employment we have no pogsible in- terest.’’ Mr. Topliffe, the chief operator, broke in At one te ae tosay: ‘“‘The operators at Springfield and Quincy, I[li., all went back to work in a body this murning.” “Were they allowed to resume?” asked Mr. Brown. . “Why, certainly.’’ “Well, all l have got to sayis that that is a funny way to treat them, and the superin- tendents had no right to take them back.”’ Mr. Brown then turned toa young lady and engaged her to attend tothe Laclede branch office, which business completed, he said to the reporter: ‘‘By to-morrow é6ven- ing I will have every one of my forty-five branch offices open. I have fifteen in operation this morning, the polo and Union stock yards, tlie effingwell avenue station, the Southern, Lindeil, Laclede and Barnum’s Hotels, Eighteenth and Lucas, the Lafayette Park station, 934 Broadwav, Graff, Bennett & Co., Hayner & Co,, the sugar district station at 404 North Second street, Pauley’s drug store, atCompton and Easton avenues, and the station at Grand avenue and Olive, | have also reopened the Mutual Union oftice on Third street, near Pine, and placed it in control of an_ ex- perienced lady. Since the consolidation we keep but one operator on duty there. Last night we handled a press report of un- usual length, and the Post-Disparcu to- day is getting full service. Ihave manned as many instruments at the Merchants’ Ex- change as’can be worked to other points. St. Louis is better fixed than many other large cities, but they are all doing well. I admit that the behavior of the strikers has been aimirable. Why should it notbe’ The fact ts the boys have madea mistake and am sorry for it for their sake. The Western Union will be benefitted by it. We will have a full force at work to-night, and shall continue to ship uperators to points where they are more needed than here. The company was prepared for this movement, and we were not caught out in the storm ‘without an umbrella this time, as we were in 1870. That was a serious strike, but we pulled through it all right.” A Significant Statement. Onc of the prime movers and active organ- izers of the strike of 1870 was Charles Sel- don, of Cincinnati. So conspicuous was he, that his name was put high up in the West- ern Union black list, when the trouble was all over. He never again entered the ser- vice of the company, but being an accom- plished electrician, he- occupied responsible positions in rival companies, and _ for several years has been superintendent. of the telegraph of the entire Wa- bash railroad system.

The Coroner Engaged on a Mys- terious Case of Violent Death. - — A Variety of Cases Disposed of by Judges Jecko and Napton in the Courts To- Day—Police Items. A case that demands the attention o1 Coroner Nidelet was reported to that official this morn- ing, Michael O’Day, aged fifty-seven years, and a laborer, was aamitted to the City Hospital on the afternoon of July 9. He said he had sustained his injuries by being._knocked overboard from a moving train. He had a compound fracture ef both bones of the left forearm and a contusion from the elbow to the shoulder. An amputation was necesary, though the patients condition scarcely jusified it. The operation was performed on the 15th inst., and he died at 2:30 a. am. to-day. He refused to give any of the circumstances con- pected with his injury further than stated above, though it is apparently a. murder or homicide of a lower degree. This morning Frederick and Mrs. Ignatz Pick- ett gave bondin the Court of Criminal Correction tg answer charges of malicious trespass July 25. They are accused by Lorenz Weisman with havy- ing broken down a door and fence belonging to road tracks. Charles Gordon was jailed to-day on a charge of stealing $800 worth of old iron, e will have a hearing July 24. : Wim.Gannon was solemnlycharged this morning with obtaining five cents from John B.Dowling by representing that he was the conductor of a Cass Avenue and Fair Ground street car. The case Wis docketed for the 24th. The charge of abandoning his wife against John Blaesy, was continued generally at the request of Marv Blaesy, the prosecuting witness, in the Court of Criminal Correction this morning. Barney Green will not leave town on a summer yacation this year. Barney was caught stealing $11 from Jake Dies and was sent to the workhouse for sixty days to-day. Before Judge Napton, James Kieley had a pre- liminary hearing to-day on a charge of misleading a girl bamed Mary Tynan, under promise of mar- riage. On the evidence be was held to answer be- fore the grand jury in the sum of $800. ' For want of prosecution a charge of riotously disturbing the peace against John Legeune was dismissed by Judge Napton to-day. A motion for a new trial in the case of Law- rece Nelson and Fritz Falkopsky was overruled to-day. The preliminary examination of Charles . H. Morton, who killed a colored man named Berry Evans with a stick suatched from a hay-rack in a fight was begun in the Court of Criminal Correc- tion this afternoon. Heis charged with murder in the first degree. Mary Brown alias Warren and Jerry Cronin, who were arrested at the Union Depot a few days ago by Sergeant Burke while engaged in a con- fidence trick, were up this morning before Judge Jecko for being idlers. They pleaded guilty, and a fine of $50 was assessed in each case. Cronin asked for hours to leave town, and his fine was stayed until6é p.m. The woman will probably avail herself of the same privilege. Judge Jecko had a docket of over fifty cases to- day, and did not adjourn untilafter noon. The most serious ones were clothes-line fights. About five o’clock yesterday evening Daniel Kublman and Therese F uettara became involved in an altercation at their homes,2014 Franklin avenue. Robert De Journette, who was standing by, took the woman’s part and inflicted severe scalp wounds on Kuhtmdn’s head, De Journette and the woman were arrested.

McCor- mick & Co. have received from Stewart & Smith, Stockton, CaL,an extract from a California paper, which reads as follows; “It will be uupleasant news to learn that the information received at the office of the Central Pacific railroad concerning crops, forces the conclusion that the wheat intcr- ests have suffered severely by reason ot the hot weather in June. Up to that time everything looked well, and it was estimated that the surplus wheatfor exportation would be worth $36.000,000. Butthe hot winds ruined the grain in maby of thé most productive portions of the _, by drying the milk as the grains were being fille out. In many sections of the State wheat looks splendidly, but whenit is examined itis found that it will hardly pay. tocutit. In Colusa and Yolo counties it is reported that hardly 40 per cent of an average crop will be obtained, and in- formation as to the southern counties is of the same discouraging character, with the exception of those localities near the coast, which have had an abundance of fog. Instead of the large ey for exportation which was an- ticipated, it is now believed that there will be not over $24,000,000 worth. It is estimated that $20.- 000,000 is nearer the truth than the former fig- ures.” §S. & S., in their letter, say: “Inclosed please find a bit of information which we believe to be true. New wheat is being delivered quite slowly, owing to what producers call below pro- ducing prices. The price being paid to-day (July 14) is $1 50 to $1 55 per hundred.” On the basis of $1 55 per hundred, the $24,000,000 worth of wheat for export would be equal to about 22,000,000 bush- els. Colusa County, Cal., is about the best wheat- roducing county in the State. The wheat raised nthe coast counties alluded to is not of a good quality, as the grain is dark and_ discolorea by the salt sea air and fogs.——The -Western Union had promised that a force of operators would be furnished the Exchange by ters to take the place of the boys who went out on tbe strike. The company tailea to carry out its promise. With the exception of R. Bohle, there was only one tele- graph operator on the Exchange floor to-day. Bohle attended to the Chicago grain blackboard, but the provision board was bare and the various offices on the floor were almost empty. In the absence of telegraphic facilities businesson ‘Change to- day was almost dead. This was especially the case with the grain futures, only about 300,000 bushels of all kin«s of grain being traded in up to 11 o'clock. Thefailure of the Western Union to fulfill what it had so ean ny 2 | romised was commented upon very severely Dy the merchants, and the sympathy felt for the striking operators was intensified. “‘There can’t be any orders re- ceived,” remarked Geo. Small, “asthereis no telegraph working, so that any man who makes a trade to-day in options can be put down asa speculator.” Then George turned to and sold five November wheat. Irwin, Orr&Co., of Chicago, wire W. G. Smyth: {Extract from dispatch from Tuscarawas county, Ohio.}) “G. \ Marlvane yesterday thrashed first part of the new crop of wheat, and it ylelded 27 1-16 bushels tothe acre, which was far beyond his expectations.”——The circular issued. by the committee who prepared the rules on memberships, to be voted upon to-morrow,Wwas circulated on the floor to-day, and received full attention from the members: The arguments ad- vanced in the circular were well received by the members.most of whom seem favorably impressed by the ideas of this committee. It is probable this measure will call out a full vote, and it is be lieved the rules will be adopted, though it will take a two-thirds vote to do so. Wheat futures showed the same irregularity as to values, the feeling being quite unsettled. Low- er prices ruled during the most of the session, and the renege was toward weakness, and this, notwithstanding the Liverpogl cable was steady to firm and New York and Toledo higher. Chicago moved in an irregular way, but was generally bet- ter, too. In the home market there was littie disposition shown to __ trade, owing to the interruption to telegraph service and consequent absence of orders and reg- ular advices from other points. Until after the noon call the light trading was done within a %c range to prices, but shortly after that call a stronger tone developed, the demand quick- ened and values aavanced stiffly. The close was firm. with August %4@4c lower, September 34¢ higher, October 1c higher, and November and year 14¢c lower, as comparea with the prices asked at 1 p. m. yester- aay. Corn was extremely dull, the amount traded in being very light indeed, but the tone was gen- erally firm and August advanced 1c and Septem- ber and October sold %%@\c higher. Oats were firm and higher. with a demand that was not fully sup- plied. Cash wheat sold lower and exhibited a good share of weakness, along with a considera- ble pressure shown to sell by holders. The de- mand was right good on milling account, besides some order inquires and shorts buying No.2 ed. No. 2 mixed corn improved a traction in value and sold fairly for shipments in large part for export; white-mixed grades were dull, as was rejected. Cash oats advanced fully lc, and was quickly taken up by feeders and or- der buyers at the higher rates. The supply on Sale was quite small.

Yarns and fabrics at Manchester were dauil and tending down. New York spots were easy Futures opened at a decline of 1 to § points, but notwithstanding the decline at Liver- pool, reacted and advanced about 3 points, and »the impression in the local Market was very gen- eral that only forthe strike a large movement would have prevailed.

There is less chance than ever to bulldoze him. aw PEOPLE who write communications to the Post-DisPpatTcu of an anti-religious nature are wasting vaiuable time and much intellect- ual sweetness. CHOLERA PasHa seems to be making more headway against the Englishin Egypt than ARABI PASHA could have accom- plished in ten years. ft is cheerful to know that the great ex- port commodity of Egypt to this country is rags for our paper mills. Itis thus we may get cholera as a sort of laguiappe. q ROTTEN granite won’t be much of an im- provement on rotten macadam. We are put- ting down street pavements to stay now, and the contractors should be kept under an of- ficial microscope. INCOMING vessels report large icebergs in the Atlantic. This is probably a mistake— what they met were sections of the feeling between Mr. EwinG and the editorof the Western Watchman. THE Globe-Democrat thinks that the Pres- ident doesn’t travel enough among his sub- jects. That’s our opinion, too. But when he travels he should pay his own expenses like other decent citizens. Upon what is supposed to be excellent au- thority the New York Sun withdraws Mr. Cuas. A. DANA froin the list of Democratic candidates forthe Presidency. Only forty- four persums now survive. ANOTHER American gir! has captured a British title. Miss Mcorrny of San Fran- cisco has wedded Sig CuAs. MIKE WOLSE- LEY, With the blessing of the Pope thrown in. It goes without sayingthat Mr. Muvuk- PHY has money. _—_ A GREAT deal is being said in the news- papers about the dramatic way in which the striking telegraph operators left their desks and their keys throughout the countrye That's all right; but we are interested in knowing how the boys are going to get back. ANOTHER floater murdered and thrown into the river at Kansas City has been picked up at Boonville. That seems to bea fay- orite place for Kansas City’s mysterious ais- appearances to turn up, But not all of them. There is many a skeleton covered deep un- der the sands of the muddy Missouri. A LETTER from Mr. ERNest GYE an- nounces to New York that Queen VICTORIA and Col, MAPLESON haye dissolved partner- ship, and that Col, M. will be alone respon- sible for the accounts following the produe- tion of Italian opera in this country next | winter. Tue Western Union people are handling their business quite well in the face of the strike. They have a working force of about one-half the usual complement, and general business is not suffering much delay. The strikers are behaving well, and up to this time there has been no resort to vivlence. If they let the wires alone the company will be in good shape by next week. In its efforts to hush up all reference to Mr. TiLpEN as a possible candidate, the New York Sun has carefully refrained from any expression inconsistent with its hailing him as “‘the rose and expectancy of the fair State” at the proper time. Still there is some reason for suspecting that DANA and TILDEN secretly entertain different views on this subject, and that: the following little story in a late issue of the Sun is a sly refer- ence to the figure the ‘“‘old ticket” proposi- tion would probably make of the little old man and his party at the close of the polls: Among the lost children at Police Headquarters last evening was a little waif scarcely four years old, in whose arms was tightly grasped a kitten. No amount ol persuasion could induce him to re- linguish his pet, and the kitten, albeit the tightly clenched fingers sometimes pulled her fur the wrong way, seemed equally opposed to a separa- tion. At alate hour the little one had not been call 6d for, and child and kitten were put to bed to- gether. ‘AS YET nobody seems te know why our Gonsulate at Monterey was sacked by greas- ers and our representative beaten and mal- treated. The Consul, it seems, was absent. He left.his office in charge of a preacher. What did the preacher do to offend the fas~ tidious Mexicans? Perhaps he rasped their religious convictions. No matter, he was the representative of the United States Gov- ernment in Mexico, and the blackguards who assaulted him niust be held accountable. There isan ugly feeling among the lower orders in Mexico against our Government, and there is a longing down there, in some sections, for another taste of 1846-7. When the sanctity of a British Consul is violated doesn’t stop to inquire as to the responsibil- ity of those who commit the outrage. J. B. proceeds tothe work of chastisement, and the more barbarous and irresponsible the offenders the more certain they are. to be well trounced. The Mexicans in and around Monterey may be in a revolutionary and turbulent state, and little fitted for keeping order. It might be a good thing for us to help them somewhat in that particular. LE LE EET SETI -”-_o--loer- Se err eo" - -- or" — THE STRIKERS. No matter from what point of view the present telegraph strike is regarded, it has elements of interest not common to any labor disturbance which has occurred in this country for years. In the first place the average telegraph operator is a man of more than average intelligence, he is the sort of person who would be accepted on a special jury; he is a fair sample of the public schooled American; he is the sort of man who goes to make up the great middle class of the Republic.’ A strike of telegraph operators is much like a strike of book- keepers or of commercial travelers. Again, the guild throughout the country is well organized—it does not include all the operators in the land, but a large percentage of them, lt has a well defined centra) gov- ernment, and it seems to be well disciplined and obedient. The men and women have been receiving good wages. They have been expecting this trouble for some time, and doubtless they have made their arrange- ments fora long season of idleness. Then we see that the strike has every condition of success which the strikers can give it. It remains to be seen whether it will succeed— whether a success{ul strike does not require elements which no combination of labor can give. : Political economists tell us that strikes are wrong in principle and pernicious in prac- tice. If the telegraphers can show the con- trary they will set an example for labor which no other organization has vet done. Wedo not believe that they will succeed. There are too many idle telegraphers, and the telegraph business is too important to the whole country to permit a long and tedi- ous interruption in its work. Public opinion is the buttress upon which a strike must rest, and it will not have much patience with a delay that costs money. ‘The contest will be eagerly watched throughout the land. Labor and capital have seldom met upon a tield so nearly even. THE COMING REPUBLIC. The colonies of Australia are agitating the question of a Federal Government for the whole continent modeled upon the United States. It is only a matter of time when this consummation must be reached. The new world inthe South seas, in every step of her progression, bears a striking resem- blance to the American Republig. Colonies have been founded upon her shores that must draw together into one great nation. The mistakes that England made here have taught her experience and are not being re- peated, but the growth of Australian nation- ality has gone on—slowly, because not fos- tered by opposition—but surely, because in this economy of nature it must. The ties that bind it to Europe are light, so light that they nay be carried on for years, but in the end the umbilical cord will be cut and the Republic of Australia will stand side by side with the United States in the great work of the political regeneration of the race. It does not needa prophetic eye to read the future of the new worlds bound together by common interests, a common blood and a common hope. It isa maxim with European diplomatists that the past belongs to the Latin, the present tq the German, the future to the Russ. But the strong, cosmopolitan cross-bred race growing up on the American prairies and the Australian downs will con- fute diplomacy and checkmate Europe. Un- der its leadership alone will we come to the time When the war-drums throb no longer and the bat- tle flags are furled In the parliament of man—the federation of the world. STOP THE NONSENSE. The attitude of the Seven wise members of the City Council, who have entered into a Solemn League and Covenant to force the Mayor to give them a share of his patronage, was rather amusing at first, but nowit has come to be a public bore. The Mayor had a right to send to the Council the names of the gentlemen whom he desired to have fill the municipal offices at his disposal. It was the duty of Council to closely scan the list, confirm the good and reject the bad. Instead of this, a controlling element, made up of both Democrats and Republicans, en- tered into a compact to reject the Mayor’s entire slate. And what was the motive be- hind thts political conspiracy? Simply this: The virtuous VASTINE wanted to have a Police Justice; Mr. Tempe had a Republican friend whom he wanted tosee made Com- missioner of Supplies; the reformatory Cum- MINGS had a man or two picked out for good places, and so the bargain was made. It was an unwarranted attempt to dictate to the Mayor, and there was no motive behind it except a commonplace greed for political pap. The Mayor, finding himseif thus antago- nized, withdrew his appointments and has failed thus far to renew them. For this he is to be subjected to the farce of an “im- peachment.” The men who are carrying on this enterprise know full well that they lack the capacity to execute their designs. Meantiine the public business is éuffering. The heads of City Depaitments subject to renewal are loth to enter upon matters that may not be determined before their eject- ment from office. Clerks are expectant, and a géneral state of uncertainty prevails around the City Hall/ It is time to put a stop to this nonsense. The entire city, out- anywhere, the Government of John Bull _ n- a ee re eile eS — oi side of .2 few gentlenén who want office, is - in sympathy with the Mayor. It is recog- nized that the Mayor has his rights. He has offared to trent the Democrats fairly in his appointments, and even his party opponents see the injustice which a political cabal, hungering to get its nose into the flesh-pots, the wheels of the municipality. The tax-payers of St. Louis, the business men who are not Interested in squabbles over public slop, are growing very tired of this nonsense. Ifthe seven Councilmen are as wise as they pretend to be, they will heed the low murmur of disapprobation which reaches their ears from every quarter. THE ISSUES OF 1884. __ So many Republicans earnestly demand tariff reform and oppose the tendency of their party towards extreme Protection doc trines, and so many Democrats are affright- ed by the Free Trade bugaboo, that. the tar- iff question is manifestly slipping into a far less dominant position than that which at one time it promised to hold in the next National election, The divisions in both parties and the party necessity for a basis of union on beth sides tend to a subordina- tion, or, possibly, an elimination of the tar- itf issue. What will take its place? There is a kin- dred question which in the elections of 1882 proved that it had a powerful hold on the popular mind, and. could overthrow the im- mense majorities which the Republicans had long polled in States like Pennsylvania, Michigan and Kansas. It was not the tariff question, but the in- dorsement of the Anti-Monopoly League that elected the Democratic nominee over FoLGER in New York by a majority of 190,000. By enlisting the Anti-Monopoly sentiment, the Democrats elected PATTISON in Pennsylvania, BUTLER in Massachusetts, WALLER in Connecticut, BEGOLE in Michi- gan, GLIcK in Kansas, GRANT in Colorado, KINKEAD in Nevada and STONEMAN in Cal- ifornia. It is mainly on the capture of these Re- publican strongholds in 1882 that the con- fidence ina Democratic triumphin 1884 is grounded. . The $1,000 votes cast for PETER CooPER in 1876 were swollen to 307,000 for WEAVER in 1880. The Democratic vote of 72,000 in Michigan, in 1881, grew to 154,000 for BEGOLE as the nominee of the Democrats and Anti-Monopolists in 1882. A similar fusion on CLARK, for State Treasurer, elected bim in Nebraska in 1882, though the straight Democratic nominee for Governor was beaten 15,000 votes at the same elec- tion. Itis clear that the Anti-Monopolists can wield the balance of powerina number of States, and probably in the whole Union. Unless their thunder is stolen by one or both of the old parties, the prospectis that they can organize a third party strong enough to render anumber of States yery® uncertain as between the Democratic and Republican candidates. The more the tariff issue is frittered away by the actions and necessities of the two old parties, the more the monopoly question will loom in their pathway. It will not down. The Demo-., cratic Committee of California, in a called meeting the other day, was compelled to con- demn the inaction of the State Railroad Commissioners as false to the Anti-Monopoly pledges of the Democratic platform, and it called on them to resign. Makers of slates and platforms will be badly left if they ignore the fact that they will have to deal with this new and commanding question. IN regard to the Sunday excursions from the city, the New York Mail and Express Says: It is becoming a matter of course for the Mon- day morning papers to contain records of riots on Sunday. Every week the city pours out its half million of excursionists, and every week there is the same story of drunkenness and rowdyism. Many of the summer resorts near by are being ruined by these Sunday rioters. Fort Lee, for instance, one of the pleasahtest of them, has _ be- come a dangerous place for any decent person to visit on aSunday, and the same may be said of several other places. It is difficult to find a cure for all this crime and indecency. If the people who delight in drinking and fighting choose to leave the city on Sanday, no law can prevent them. Respectable citizens of New York may avoid trouble by staying at home, . The beer garden of the city or its imme- diate vicinity is conducted as a Sunday re- sort for the family. The presence of women and children and policé secures order. But when the working people of a city are forced to find their recreation in excursions beyond the pale of police supervision, the wives and daughters are Jeft at home and drunkenness, indecency and riot ensue.. Which is better for St. Louis? SOMETIME ago our wise Municipal Agsem- bly changed the name of Fifth street to Broad- way. There is no Fifth street now. Broad- way extends from some point in the neigh- borhood of Bellefontaine Cemetery to the vicinity of the Rivér des Peres, we believe. Not one man in five hundred of our popula- tion knows that Fifth street. has been oblit- erated, though the street lamps along that thoroughfare are all labeled “Broadway.” Merchants are still advertising themselves as located on Fifth street. This change was a sheer piece of folly. A city situated as St. Louis is should maintain tne system of num- bered streets at right angles with those bear- ing names. It facilitates numbering on the blocks and enables strangers to locate them- selves easily. There was no sense whatever in intersecting the business. portion of the city with “Broadway” ; but our city legislat- ors are very wise, and it ia neeessary for them to be doing something, lation. He has been threatened with assas- sination by a Denver. liverj-stable keeper, and he goes about now under polite escort.

The Ilinois papers have been more generous, and, 80 far as we have seen, Gen.

THE Boston Heraid wants a President who eats a great deal and cultivates a bay window. SOMEBODY undertakes to say that Bayard is the first choice of the Texas Democrats for Presi- dent. HENRY WARD BEFCHER goes in, or rather comes out, for another term for President Ar- thur. BfAINe’s friends in Kansas say he could have the delegation from that State to the National Convention if he wanted it. WE see it is stated that Ex-Gov. St. John of Kansas is engaged to deliver twelve Prohibition speeches in Ohio at $50 each. THE Atlanta Constitution has observed symp- toms indicating that the weather is favorable for a Democratic wait until 1883. ’ JoE BLACKBURN informs the Cincinnati En- quirer that he is a candidate for Speaker, and that he is not for Randall ana willnot be under any circumstances. . IT is now declared that the object of Henry Watterson’s long stay at Greystone was accom- plished when he secured the loan of Mr. Tilden’s portrait to the Louisville Exposition. ° Says the Philadelphia Times: “While Henry Watterson is taking an account of Mr. Tilden’s health, it would be worth his while also to get some views from Mr. Tilden about the tariff.” EXx-SRENATOR MCDONALD doesn’t propose that a man with a lame toe shall walk ahead of him. He will follow Ex-Gov. Hendricks to Iowa, and is announced to make speeches at Des Moines ana Cedar Rapids. THE Democrats of Iowa, which became a State under their supremacy as aparty, are not a littie disgusted by the discovery of the fact that the Republicans have not abolished the provision of the Constitution of that State which prohibits colored men from being members of the Legislat- ure. STATE TREASURER BURKE Of Louisiana told a Chicago Tribune reporter that there is a very friendly feeling toward Mr. Tildenin that State and that the hostility existing against him throughout the State just prior to the convention of 1880 has disappeared. He says Mr. Randall is sure of one and probably two votes for Speaker in the Louisiana delegation. TILDEN and Lamar is the ’84 ticket of the Mert- dian, Miss., Mercury, but the Vicksburg Herald saysthatthe people of Mississippi will object most decidedly to having Lamar tied to the tail of the Tilden kite. Explaining itself the Herald says: “Ifa live man is nominated for President and it is proposed to nominate a Southern Demo- erat for Vice-President, our people will support Senator Lamar with unexampled enthusiasin.”’ 7” - ABOUT WOMEN.

THE wife of any army officer is respected and allowed to live in Government quarters, at the post ef her husband, and she frequently helps him at poker; but the wife of a naval officer is ruled out entirely by the Secretary of Navy, and is not wanted anywhere.

She is editor and proprietor of the Legal News, an able lawyer, a good wife, a model mother, a splendid housekeeper, possesses social qualities of a very high order, and does more work every day of her life than twenty ordinary Chicago lawyers. MRS.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. . OLD SUBSCRIBER—Only the boys appointed by Congressmen and the President are admitted to the military schoolat West Point. PuUSHMATAHA—We know nothing about the company referred to, but we have a very poor opinion of the scheme of insuring babies. READER—The name of Leigh is usually pro- nounced Lee, though it would be more proper to give ita broader sound—something between Lee and Lay. THIRD WARD—Holding office is not a disquali- fication for a seat in the Republican Central Com- mittee, but no pap-sucker can represent his ward on the Democratic Central Committee. CourRT—There is a secret tower inclosing a winding stairway in the new Custom-house, from which post-office employes can be placed under surveillance, but there is no such institution in the Court-house. THE PEOPLE’S FORUM. Where the Keaders of The Post-Dispatch Find a Hearing. St. Louis, July 20, 1883. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The public, and particularly the people of the West End,feel grateful to your valuable and enter- prising paper for publishing the articles in refer- ence tothe obstruction of the streets west of Grand avenue by the no-good railroad. lt appears from the opinion of the City Counsellor that the road never had permission to cross Washington avenue, its contract with the old County Court does not show it. Such being the case the property owners on that street will not permit it to obstruct the street any longer. Washington ayenue is prominent in the list of choice streets. Several beautiful residences have been recenty erectéd on the McPherson Hill, which makes it one of the finest locations inthe city. A meeting was held last night for the purpose of organizing a Tax-payer’s Association, for the purpose of raising a fund to employ counsel to look after tle general interest Of the people and act with the City Counsellor in any legal proceedings that may be necessary to have the obstructions on the street removed. The people will not submit ahy louger to any incenveni@uce or injury to their property When they havea legal remedy. The city authorities are too careless in graut- iug privileges to corporations without com- inensurate public good. The assistance you. have rendered in this matier is lully appreciated and will surely be reciprocated by the public. Very respecifully, WASHINGTON AVENUE. No Place for a String Band. St.Louis, July 20, 1883. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: As a constant attendant at the Thursday after- noon concerts at Lafayette Park, 1 wish to “toot my horn’ in regard to the music furnished this season. In former years Vogel’s reed band dis- rsed sweet strains, andit was a notabie fact at the melody could be heard even in the re- iotest parts of the park. Yesterday, and at the hree preceding concerts, the music of the orches- ra was inaudible to any one Sitting fifty feet rom the pavilion. At times the audience was der the impression that the orchestra had opped playing, when suddenly the bang of the bass drum and clash of the cymbals (the only in- struments which could be heard) reminded them that the band was still there. Now some people may think it bad policy to look a gift mulein the mouth, and to protest against something whic has been Kindlv given us, but whatever 18 wort doing, is worth doing well. There are some people who do, strauge to relate, gooutto hear the music, and to these the con- certs are a disappointment. To the mashers, the dudes and the class Who go to seé and be seen the concert servés Only aS &n excuse, and as a poor excuse is better than none, they never trouble themselves about the music. rom a musical standpoint, a string band is altogether out of place foran open air~coneert. A Drass bandis too harsh. A reed band has been found to give the best satisfaction, as the success and reputation of former park concerts prove. That the parties having charge o®the matter did not follow the old proverb and let well enough alone is a matter of surprise and conjecture to LAFAYETTE PARK YOUNG MAN, A Workingman’s Savings. ST.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As an old subscriber and a Catholic I desire to offer my earnest protest against Father Phelan or anyone else, priest or layman, poking his editorial nose into the private family affairs of our Mayor. It is about time, wnthis nineteenth. century and in this glorious republic, that the religious views of our public officers were not commented on by persons who shvuld have lived in the times of the crusades. Our Mayor has received unjust adver- tising evengh foriis public aets, without having such contemptible innuendos cast at his private ones.

If Tilden isa candidate, or would accept tie nomination if it were tendered, he must be either dévoid of sincerity or have a code of ethies all jiis own. Unless it be in order to show that his word is worth nothing, and that his immediate friends are a pack of liars, to persistin gabbling about making him a candidate is at once idiotic ani outrageous. Granted, however, that Mr. Tilden could bé induced to forsake his retirement, what would the condition of the Democracy be with kim as its eandidate? Personally Mr. Tilden might stand allright. No one would deny his in- tellectual ability or his great services to the State of New York, but would not the party cut a ludi- crous figure shouting about a fraud which ought to have been redressed in 1880, which it had the opportunity to redress and which ‘it declined to give battle for? Inthis respect the party wouid. be not unlike a woman who should come to court complaining of an outrage eight years after it wis committed and saying she had just woke up to the enormity of it. Mr. Tilden. From the Louisville Courier-Journal, Mr. Tilden’s most intimate friends have, in their own persons, assured the country that no power could induce him to accept the Presidency. The New York Times publishes an anouymons, irre- sponsible communication, purporting to coma from a “friend,” who states otherwise.

BY JUAN KINGSLEY. Toward the end of September, 1832, it was announced among the artistic circles of Paris that Nicolo Paganini had fallen seriously ill, at the conelusion of a grand concert given the illustrious violinist. He was attacked by a low intermitting fever, which refused to yieid to the remedies employed, and even gave rise to apprehensions for his life. Paganini, whose leanness was already al- most spectral, now seemed to have his frail existence suspended by a thread which the slightest shock might sever. ‘lhe physicians unanimously orderea solitude, absolute re- pose, and a strict regimen as to diet. In order to carry out these prescriptions, Paganini removed to the Villa Lutetiana in the Faubourg Poissonniere. ‘This excelent establishment, which no longer exists, was intended exclusively for the reception and cure of wealthy invalids. A spacious, com- fortable house stood in a large, park-like garden, where each patient could ramble at will, and enjoy either solitude or society at his choice, A great charm of this house was that every OLe lived justas he or she pleased; in the evening, either retiring to the solitude of his apartment or joining in the games, music and cunversation held in the drawing- room. Paganjni naturally belonged to those who preferred passing the evenings in quiet- ness and retirement. There was plenty of gossip ign the drawing-room; three or four censorious old maids iell on him tooth and nail. ‘*Ladies,”’ began one, “have you seen this great musician? He salutes no one, and never speaks a word. He takes his bowl of soup in an arbor in the garden, and then hastens away if any one approaches. What an oddity he must be!’’ ‘That's part of his malady,” said another; ‘people say that there is some terrible mys- tery about his life—some love story, I im- agine,”’ “Not at all,”’ added a third; “Paganini is a miser; there’s no niystery about that. Do you remeuber that concert which Was or- ganized in favor of the families who had suf- fered from the inundation at St. Etienne? The great violinist refusdd to take part in it because he would have to play gratuitously. Depend upon it, he fears that, were he to mix in our society, he might be asked for similar favors.” Paganini guessed pretty well how he was received by his feilow-boarders, but like Galileo of old, he cared for none of these things. His nealth became gradually better, yet in the whole house he never exchanged a word with any one except Nicette. This was the housemaid who attended on him:a cheerful, innocent country girl, whose gay prattie, wnuen she served his meals, often availed to dispel the cloud which habitually darkened the brows of Paganini. One niorning Nicette presented herself with a sad, drooping countenance, and served breakfast without uttering a word. The musician, who was amusing himself with carving a piece of ivory tor the handle of a dagger, noticed the change in the young girl, and questioned her upon it. “What's the matter, my child? You look sad; your eyes are red; some misfortune has befallen you, Nicette.”’ “QO, yes! sir.” ; cata: it be indiscreet to ask you what it is **No, sir, not precisely; but-——” Paganini fixed his great black eyes on the girl’s troubled countenance. “Come,” he said; “Il see how it is. After having made you a thousand promises he has quitted you and you no longer have any tid- ings of him.” “Ah! poor fellow! he has quitted me cer- tainly, but it was not his fault.” “How is that?” “Because in the conscription he drew a bad. number, and he has been sent away with a great long gun on his shoulder, and [ shall never see him again,” sobbed poor Nicette, as she buried her face in her white apron. “But, Nicette, could you not purchase a substitute for him?” **Mousieur is jesting,” she said. “How could I ever buy a substitute?” “Does it cost very dear ?’”’ ‘This year men are tremendously dear, on account of the report that there 4 going to be a war. Fifteen hundred fraucs is the low- est price.”’ 7 The musician pressed Nicette’s little plump hand between his long, sallow fingers, ns he said: “If that’s all, my girl, don’t cry; we'll see what can be done.” Then, taking out his pocket-book, he wrote on a blank leaf: “Mem. ‘To see about giving a concert for the benefit of Nicette.”’ A month passed on; winter arrived, and Paganini’s physician said tuo hin: “My dear sir, you must not venture out of doors again until after the month of March.” “lo hear is to obey,’”’ replied the musi- clan. During the winter a comparative degree of heaith and strength returned to Paganini. Having no longer the pleasant, shady arbors of the garden as a refuge, he began gradual- ly to linger ajlittle in the drawing room. Aft- er dinner he used to throw. himself on asofa of crimson velvet and pass half. an hour in turning over a volume of engravings or in sipping a glass of sugared water flavored with orange flowers. ‘The old ladies of the society gossiped on about him and his odd ways, but he affected not to hear, and cer- tainly did not heed them. Christmas eve approached. On the anni- versary of the birth of our Lord a custom ex- ists in ns. We Won dear to its fuvenile in- habitants. wooden shoe is placed at the corner of thehearth, and a beneticeat fairy is Supposed to come down the cliimney laden with various presents and dainties with which he fillsit. It is calculated that, one year with another, the Christmas wooden shoe enriches the trade of Paris with 2,0v0,- 000 francs. “On the morning of the 24th of December four of Paganini’s female critics were in consultation together. “It will be for this evening,” said one. “Yes, for this evening; that’s settled,” re- plied another. After dinner faganini was, according to his custoin, seated on the drawing-room sofa, sippibg his eau sucre, when an unusual noise was heard in the corridor. Presently Niectte entered and announced that a porter ae arrived with a case directed to Sig. Pag- antni. “I don’t expect any case,”’ said he; “but I suppose he had better bring it in,”’ Accordin iy a stout porter entered, bearing See gen éal-box, on Which. besides the ‘address, were the words, “Fragile, with care.” Paganini examined it with some cu- riosity, and having paid the messenger, pro- ceeded to open the lid, His long, thin, but extremely museular_ fingers accotnplished tiiis task without difficulty, and the é¢om- pany, whose curiosity caused them some- what to transgress the bounds of good man- ners, crowded around in order to see the con- tents of the box. The musician first drew out a large packet enveloped in strong, brown paper, and se- cured with several seals. Having opened this, a second and thena third envelope ap- peared, and at length the eyes of twenty persons were regaled with a gigantic wooden shoe, carved out of a piece. of ash, and al- most large enough to serve for a child’s cra- die. Bursts of laughter hailed the discovery. “Ah!” said Paganini, “a wooden shoe. I can guess tolerably well who sent it. Some of these excellent ladies wish to conipare meé toachild who always expects presents and uever gives amy. Well! be itso. We will see if we cannot find some method of making this shoe worth its weight in goid.” So sayiug, and scarcely saluting the com- pany, Paganini withdrew to his own apart- ment, Carrying with him the case and its contents. During three days lie did not reappear in the drawing room; Nicette informed the company that he worked from morning till night with carpenters’ tools. In fact, the musician, whose hands were wondrously flexible and dexterous in other things besides violin playing, had fashioned a perfect and sonorous instrument out of a wooden shoe. Having enriched it with one siiver string, his work was complete. Next day a public notice appeared that on New Year’s eve Paganini would give aconcert in the large hall of the Villa Lutetiana. ‘The great mas- ter announced that he would piay ten pieces, five on the violin, five on a wooden shoe. .'The she: of the tickets was fixed at twenty rancs each. Of these only 100 were issued, and itis needless to add that they were pur- chased by the elite of the beau monde, who, during several months, had niissed the pleas- ure of hearing Paganiui. The appointed evening arrived; the hall, furnished with comfortabie chairs, was prepared and lighted for the occasion, elegant equipages were stationed along the Faubourg Puissoniere, and expectation Was on tiptue to know wha - the announcement respecting the wooden shoe could possibly mean. At length Paganini appeared, smiling, with every appearance of renewed health, and op his favorite violin played some of those marvelous strains which never failed to transport his auditors to the seventh heaven of delight. ‘hen he seized the shoe, which, In its new guise of violin, still pre- served somewhat of its pristine form, and, his whole being lighted up with enthusiasm, he commenced one of those wo:drous im- prov amens which captivated the souls of iis hearers. ‘This one represented first the departure of a conscript, the tears, thé wail- ing of his betruthed, then his stormy life in thecamp and on the feld of battle, and finally his return, accompanied by triumph and rejoicing, A merry peal of wedding bells completed the musical drama. Long and loud were the thunders of applause; even the old ladies who aisliked Paganini could jnot refrain from Clap- ping, and bouquets, thrown by fair and jeweled hands, fell at the feet of the musician, ina corner of the hall, next to the door, Nicette was Weeping bitterly; the symphony of the conscript had gone straight to her heart. At the end of the concert the receipts were counted. They amounted to 2,000 frances. ‘‘Here, Nicette,” said Paganini, ‘‘you have 500 francs over the sum required to turnish a substitute; they will pay your bridegroom’s traveling expenses.” Then after a pause he continued: ‘But you will want something wherewith to commence houseKeeping. Take this shoe- violin, or this violin-shoe, and seli it for your dowry.” Nicette did so, and received from arich amateur 6,000 francs for Paganini’s wooden shoe. lt is now, we believe, in the possession of an English nobleman, who was formerly British Ambassadur to Paris.

What a Nice Young Lady Thinks About the Propriety of it. From the Jacksonville (Fla.) Times. We were a very Numerous party upon the front steps and piazza of a residence uptown the other evening and some of the giddy things were having a pretty jolly time of it. Amid a chorus of pretty laugns and screams from a fluttering brood upon the steps a bass vyoleed youngster drawied: ‘*Look at Miss Lena; she’s having a good time; oR got his arm around her. “Why, Jack, how dare vou say so? It’s no such. a thing,’’ cried the half merry, half indignant Lena. . “It that is what you are doing,-’ said an elder and quite staid young lady, speaking from the piazza, “‘you had better come up here. and sit, Miss Lena.” “Ha, ha, ha!” screamed a dozen voices; “vou want to get into her place; you wouldn’t mind a liltle of that hugging busi- ness yourself.’ “No,” said Miss Prudence, decidedly. ‘1 would never allow a young gentleman to put his arm around me.” “Not if you were engaged to him ?” “No, not even if I was engaged.”’ ‘‘And he loved you and you loved him?” “No, indeed; never.” ‘Miss Eva,” said Jack, addressing a very independent, practical and pretty maiden of eighteen, who sat inarocker in the very center of the piazza, “how is that? If you loved aman dearly and he loved you, and you were engaged, wouldn’t you let him put his arm around you if he wanted to?” Miss Eva spoke. ‘Though her manner was airy, her voice indicated that shé was speak- ing her genuine downright sentiments. “Well, L’liteli you,’ she said, “if I had known the young mana long time, and he liked me very much, and 1 liked him, and we were engageu—and if—if 1 was dead sure of him—I’d let him siap his arm round meina minute—and just as much as he wanted-to. I think I woulu rather expect him to do it—’”’ “Hurrah for Miss Eva,” cried all the voices at once, and in general hilarity Ned did “slap his arm right round” Miss Lena, and she boxed his ears and pushed him down the steps. “Ambassador of Commerce.” From the Hartford Post. Not long ago a Hartford drummer was warned of the crusty disposition of a retailer in one of the central New York cities, and in- formed that while he had better cal! upon him, the firm would not be disappointed should he fail to transact any business. ‘“‘1’}l sell him,’”’ said the Hartford boy, confdent- ly. Artiving at the city in question, he paid his first call upon the mano he had been warned against.. He found him sitting upon a high stool beforea desk, poring over the ages ofa ledger. As the drummer entered he just turned his head, took in the sample case, said: *‘Humpb,” and went on with his figures. After a lapse of Gve minutes he said without looking up: “If you’re a drummer I don’t want to see you, 80 don’t waste time here.” “But lm not a drummer,” was the oe aid “What in ——are you, then?” inquirea the retailer. ‘fT am an ambassador of commerce,” an- swered the salesman, nothing daunted. “Ambassador what! welll can’t talk with — weit ron only knew it, there’s a man in one of the leading lustitutions in Hartford that would give @ hundred dollars to talk with me,’”” “What sort of aman is he?” “He's deaf and dumb.” Atthis response the retailer came down from‘his high stool and before he left the drummer had his name in his book for a haudsome bill of goods, ~ EP Tweiity-tour beautiful colors of the Dia- mond Dyes, tor Silk, Wool,Cotton, etc., 10 cla.

The Cruel Way in which Royal Per- s0nages are Put to Deata. Cor. Philadelphia Press. I asked my companion whether many exe- cutions took place here now, and he replied: ‘There have been none for several weeks, because the palace intrigues have kept every- body in authority too busy scheming. plot- ting and planning to allow them to get up a public execution; but not many months ago I saw a baud of a store or more men and women murdered On this sanguinary hillock. Soine of the victims had royal biood in them, aud they were not butchered in the common way. Imagine to yourself a princess charm- ingly dressed in silks and jewels, with tlow- ers intertwined in her jet-black hair, being pushed or goaded up this hill. The crowd of spectators clustered in the rice fleilds there or perched upon the roofs of the houses you see peeping forth among the mango trees over against us on our extreme right, set up ashout. Itis nota shout of pity or mercy. it is merely one of holiday excitement. Itis like the murmur you might hear at New- gate when the telon appeared upon the scaf- told, or in the Place de Greve when the vic- tim’s head was laid on the block beneath the guillotine. The sun is pouring down its brightest rays which appear to concentrate with their greatest brightness on this hilluck. One executioner unbinds the giri’s raven halr, throws the pretty flowers away, twists a tress of it round his hands, and pulls her head violently backward. Another executioner grasps a bamboo bludgeon with both hands. One, two, three! He swings it in the air, and down it fails upon the outstretched throat. One, two, three! and again it strikes the poor, gasping victim on the same place. The body falis lifeless, though still quivering. ‘The princess is dead. Her body is cast aside disdainfully. “Then look at this other group of men hustling a handsome young Burmese in their mnidst—hauling at him, tugging at him, to get him to the summit of the mound. He also is of royal blood. Pride of race, and that disregard for death which eda up your true Buddhist as strongiy as es the fatalisi of the Wahabee, preserves equan- imity in his deportent. He has flung some- thing away over among the crowd. Itis only his cheroot. He has done with it, and long before the brown urchin who has picked itup will have blown the last embers from it the spark of life of its original owner will have joined the elements, and one more Buddhist soul will have started off on its vast career of transmigration. See, he stands dark outline against the unclouded sky. A high cheek-boned executioner seizes his long black hair in front and pulis his head for- ward until his chin adjoins his breast. The secoud executioner spits on his hands, grasps his bamboo club firmly, and--whish! whish! the bludgeon hisses through the air and falls on the nape of the neek of the victim. He falls forward on his face, the first execution- er still holding onto the hair.“ A second blow on the back of the neck, while the man lies prostrate, settles the matter. An ex- perienced touch on the red and bruised neck tells the executioner that the vertébra is broken and that life has fled. Once morethe body is spurned aside, and more victims are dragged up the hill. But these latter are only common victims and are killed in a common way.” I venture toask my friend what he calls common killings Heexplains: “According to the Burmese law royal blood must not be shed. This injunction is literally obeyed, for while the women are clubbed across the throat and the men across the neck, no blood is spilt. The common people may be exe- cuted in any way. On the morning of which I speak the comimon people were hacked by a Burmese withashort sword until their heads rolled off. Sacre! it was a terrible snes but 1 saw no sign of horror among the spectators. Executions in independent Burmah are too common, and have been for centuries, to excite much public feeling. Every map, woman, and child knows that their turn may come next, just as they hap- en to encounter the displeasure of some ligh official. Come, let us be moving on- ward, or these vultures will think we have come here to provide them with a feast.” R. I. NELSON, Bethany, Mo., says: “My wife used Brown's lron Bitters with satisfaction for weakness and general debility.” ‘KEEPER OF MADAM’S SECRETS. Maids Who Are Honored by Their Mis- tresses as Confidantes. From the New York Journal. The lady’s maid with the white cap is more ecomuion than the valet. Alt of the more prominent actresses have maids, and nearly ail leading society ladies have them also. One of the most noticeable results of foreign travel is the acquisition of the lady’s maid. These maids are often’ maids-of-all-work, and occupy the dual capacity of maid and companion or confidante. A well known ac- tress gives all her letters to her maid to an- swer; indeed, except to legal documents, she seldom takes pen in hand, as her education was neglected in early life, and she is not skilled either in chirography, syntax or. ety- mology. ‘There is a great difference in ladies’ maids, according to their nationality. The foreign ladies’ maids, French, Swiss or English,seem to be born to occupy the position, and are subservient and deterential, and, it may be added, sycophantic. ‘Lhe colored maids are the most affectionate and reliable. The maids selected from poor families are the most intelligent, and at the same time most independent. ‘The French and Swiss maids generally succeed in eliciting the confidence of théir mistresses, aud occupy the position ofa confidante, though mercenary, and it is dangerous to trust them with valuable se- crets. © ‘Tha position of governess or companion must not be confounded with tbat of ladies’ maids. though they are in the famllies of the parvenu and at the hotels, where a coOmpan- jon can ride in the elevator, the maid not being permitted therein, but compelled to walk up and down stairs the same as the other servants. The governess and com- panion are generally ladies of position in re- duced circumstances, who are pare way fit associates of those who employ them and oiten much superior in every respect to them excepting social position and resources. The governess or companion is perinit- ted to dress to suit her taste, while the lady’s maid is compelled to wear the white linen cap and the piain garb of the household sub- ordinate. Ladies’ maids are generally young women, past twenty-five, or elderly women, childless widows olf deceased barbers or Waiters or grooms. ‘Their functions are identical in re- gard to the ladies who empluy them as those of the valet toward his master, only more confidential and more social, as the two for- mer are brought more together aud more in- timate than the latter, and censequentiy the intercourse is more famillar. Ladies’ maids have much leisure, and going about with their mistresses have a much — time than the other servants, Who have only their hebdomanal “day off’ for personal eujoy- ment. of the employer, Some are generous and clothe the maida well, while others are close- fisted and cofisider the position $0 attractive that snail wages should satisfy. The lady’s inaid must be more rigorous and décorous in her life than any other of the servants. She is exposed to less temptation, and it is sel- dom one hears of a lady’s maid involved in a scandal. MOCKING MACKEY. An Alleged Dispatch From Paris in @ Nevada Paper. From the Carson Appeal. The round of amusements which Mr. Mac- key is providing for the American colony sincé his return from the great fetes at Moscow are the ail-eclipsing topic of the hour. At the ball given jlast Saturday Mr. Mackey hired the King of Sweden to dance with the American ladies, paying him a thousand dollars an hour for the work. About midnight he struck for higher wages and Mr. Mackey stood the raise with true American Sang froid. By sfour o’clock the King was completely blown with his social exercises and taken from the room in a faint- ing condition. Mr. Mackey offered to pa all his funeral expeuses if he died, whic generous offer made him many friends among the Swedes. The Prince of Wales telegraphed for an invitation to the ball, but the American millionaire, remarking that Wales Consolidated was a good short, de- clined to issue an invite. When his little bon mot was translated in the morning journals the city was convulsed with laugh- ter. Several descendants of the Ronaparte family who attempted to climb in the win- dows of the ball-room where thrown into the basin of the fountain by Mr. Mackey, who stands over six feet in his socks, and is called the ‘strong man of Nevada.’ This sraceful act of courtesy to the Straight tepubs of the Empire is well appreciens Although Mr. Mackey danced until daylight and went off shift at six o’clock, he whip two editors of the royalist faction before breakfast for publishing an incorrect des- cription of some of the dresses worn at the blowout. Whenthe bodies of the editors were borne away in an ambulance to the Hospital des Invalides the crowds applauded in the streets. On Sundiy! last Mr. Mackey was taken with a chill, and, feeling that his hour was near, purchased the tomb of Napoleon fora family vault, and had it at once taken to his garden. On recovering in the afternoon he soid it to the Czar atan advance of fifty per cent. The Journal of Finance applauds this masterly stroke of business. ‘To-day there was & rumor that M. Pattoon, imperial keep- er of three thousand cross¢uts of the Union, had struck bird’s-eye porphery inthe Hale & Norcross winze, and that there was much ex- citement. Someof Mr. Mackey’s friends immediately formed a company to import porphyry to Paris, and -he,kindly allowed them to take ten thousand shares of the Un- ion stock at par. The Grand Consolidated Bird’s-Eye Porphyry Company (limited) is now one of the solid stocksof the Bourse. The first shipioad of porphyry will arrive inside of a inonth. The only accident which marred the har- mony of the grand ball was when the eldest daughter of Count de Chambord feil into one of the tanks of champagne, which had care- lessly been left in the corridor, and was drowned. The tank held one thousand gal- lons, and the body was not discovered until the floor mauagers had drauk the tank near- ly dry.

From the Detroit Free Press. He drove a policeman intoa doorway on Woodbridge street Sunday evening and bDe- gan: ‘*\ bout two hours ago a cadaverous wooden- head might have been seen gawping at the river from the foot of Randolph street. He didn’t know enough to chew gum. That was ne. “You, eh? Well?’ “Well, he gawped and gawped, and Ne knew he had $20 in his pocket, and he chuckled and tickled and said he had come to town to look around and see things and That was mie “He just fairly ached to have a bunko man come up and slap him on the back and eall him Josepheus Basswood, and ask how oa and ma andthe children all got along. He itched to havea three-card monte man tickle him under the chin ana call him a red fox from lonia county, and open up chis lit- tie game. His bones all screamed out for the man with the bogus gold pieces, and he drew down his left eye as he thought how they’d take him for a hay-statk and get sold. He ae an infernal idiot. That’s mel” sé res.”’ “Well, as he was standing there and feel- ing how sharp and cute and cunning he was. up comes a man who was breathing hard and looking scart and says he to me ina whisper: ‘You look like a friend to the un- fortunate. I can see by the cut of your face that I can trust you. I have wounded a man who insulted my wife, and I must skip to Canada to escape arrest. I have no money, but here is a hundred dollar bond. Lend me $20 and keep the bond until [ see you.” That is what he said. The double-jinted idiot from the country took it all like a boy gulp- ing down sulphur and ‘lasses. That's me some more.”’ “I’m listening.” “The greenborn was flattered and tickled. He saw achance to make $80 on that bond. ‘Lhe bomb-proof, back-action, copper-riveted agricultural peach-blossom figured as how he’d cash that bond to-morrow and skip, and as how the man in haste to reach Canada would never find him, and as how them $100 would buy a yoke of oxen, and so he passed over his greenbacks and pocketed the bond. Yes, the bald-headed, cross-eyed, bow-legged turnip patch did that very thing. That's me to a dot!” , * “Is it possible?” “And here’s the bond—worthless! And herel am—strapped! And somewhere up town is the sharper—tickled half to death at the wey he played me! Say?’ sé es ”” “Hunt up a born fool, catch a crank, scare hp a dude, bring in an old man witha third wife, and boil ’em all down and bag up the bones and call the thing Josepheus Baswood! ‘That’s me!” And he walked off to find the plank road running West, waving the bogus bond with one hand and helping to kick himself with the other. Halia biock away he halted and looked back, and seeing the officer still there he gave himself three kicks and shouted out in a lonesome voice: “Don’t you forget it—that’s me!” FOR, PAIN. | rheumatism, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Sere Throat, wei “ Bruises, of Br ALL yet RPODILY t mong ~ " Mreetion oT Leeguness.

Cayior, the secretary of the club and the base- ball reporter of thie Clacinnati Commercial Ga- zeite, whose account of Wednesday’s gaine, as telegraphed to his paper, claims that the cham- pious were shametuily robbed of the game by Um- pire Pratt, upon whum all Kinds of abuse are lieaped. Mr. Caylor is careless enough. about what he states to go even so far as to say thatthe audience was disgusted with Pratt and hissed and abused him. Oi course, nota word of all this is true. After Wednesday’s game, Treasurer Cor- coran of the Cincinnatis, a big heavy man, came up to Mi. Pratt, who is small in size and stature, abused him and was about to strike him, whena gentleman standing by interfered and told Cor- coran thatif he must have a fight, he, the by- stander, would accommodate him, as Mr. Pratt was bv no means his equal, physically. Mr. Corcoran did not fight. Of course this is fair treatment, and it is sur pris- log that under the circumstances Pratt should re- sign as he has done. The tact is that Cincinnatu has been Knocked out of all chauce of the cham- ones by the last victories of St. Louis over ler nine, aud that Mr. Pratt is unjustly selected as the scape-goat, ‘Rough on Rats.”’ Clears out rats, mice, roaches, flies, ants, bed- bugs, skunks, chipmynks, gophers. 15c.Druggists.

CARONDELET JOTTINGS. A Union Depot claim check, No. 275, was found on the street and is at the police station. Ira A. Powell, not content with being commis- sioned to write D. G. D. after his name, wishes to add something more to his laurels and announces that he now resides on DesPeres avenue. One year ago Sam Armsted made a violent as- sault upon Kobt. Duncan, but eluded arrest. Thinking the matter was forgotten, he ventured back yesterday, but was at once lockei up and this morning was sent to the Four Courts. Two candidates were initiated last night by Paetoum Lodge, Ancient Order of United Work- men, and two more applications were received, W. B. Rogers resigned the office of Recording Secretary, as he is abouc to institute another lodge of the same order here. Geo. Bradford was elected to fill the vacancy. The mother of Sam Armsted is on the war- path, all because her darlinpg Sam was arrested esterday. She made an effort to have Officer carl, who made the arrest, arrested, but she was advised to go to Justice Meegan, and he in turn advised her to go to the cily, where she could ob- tain relief, free of charge. Qfficer Earl will not be frightened when he heaps of this attempt to “run him in.” , A little jogging now and then dves even the Carondelet vigilant policeman good. A day or two since an item appeared in this department relative to boys climbing upon the cars in spite of the stringent orders which had been issued. That item stirred up the officers, and since then numer- ous small “‘tads’” have been well nigh frightened out of their senses by feeling the grasp of a strong hand upon their shoulder. John Hail, eighteen years of age, was arrested last night, for climbing upon a train, and was sent to the Four Courts this morning, as it is a State offence. Stein street, east of Des Peres avenue, is ina very dangerous condition, and some of these days the city will have a big damage suit on its hands. The street is a very narrow one at that place and 1or the distance of a block on each side the rock has been quarried up to the very edge of the street for a depth of forty feet, with no railing or obstruction of any Kind along the street; and the dace is made more dangerous by weeds which lave grown along the edge, hiding the precipice. Thereare no lights in that section, which also adds to the danger. NORTH ST. LOUIS. The Pickel Stone and Marble Company are re- serving a large Consignment of marble direct from aly. Col.

A POINTER FOR CATTLE DEALERS. Right of the Creeks to Tax Stock Crossing Their Country Denied. Mr. C. W. Rogers, Vice-President of the St. Louis and San Francisco raiiroad,in June ad- dressed a letter to Hon. 1. C. Parker. United States District Judge at Fort Smith, Ark., in- forming him that parties driving cattle throuch the Creek Nation to that road and to points on it in the Cherokee Nation, are required by the Creeks to pay a tax of $1 per head per month for the right to drive their cattle through the Creek Nation, and asking the Judge whether they have any right to charge this tax. Yesterday Mr. Rogers received a reply from Judge Baker, who stated that he had already, ina similar case, de- cided that a law of the Cherokee Nation similar to thisjone of the CreeKs,providing for the assessment and collection of a tax upon catile or stock of any kind passing through the Nation, was void. Cou- gress alone had the rightto legislateupon and regulate inter-state commerce, and legislation upon the subject by any other power isa plain assuipption of the power vested exclusively in Congress. If persons took cattle into the Creek country lo graze them, they had a right to collect a grazers’ tax, but if cattle are passing over their country tomiarket they had no right to collect any tax for such transit. -_-e—_— WEAK lungs, spitting of blood. consumpftio anc kindred affections cured without ph om.

AN ADMINISTRATOR ’S LIABILITY. Judge Woerner of the Probate Court Ren- ders an Important Decision. In the matter of the estate of John B. Carson, Judge Woerner of the Probate Court this morn- ing rendered the following decision: “There was a final settlement and discharge of thie administrator nearly fourteen years ago, pending a suit against the estate in the Supreme Court of the United States, which subsequently resulted in a judgment against the administrator. To satisfy this judgment it became necessary to set aside the final settiemenutin chancery and to further proceed with the administration in the Probate Court, to whicb the Judgment was presented for classificar tion. Inhis final settlement the administrato- claimed a credit in his favor of $5,636 12, repre- senting the excess of disbursements allowed to him over the assets received; hence there were no assets prima facie out of which the debt could be satisfied. The administraior, therefore, th ee foranorder to sell real estate, but in trial OL this Motion it Was oOveiruled, the court finding that the personal assets were originally sullicient tu pay all the debts of the estate, and that instead of an order of sale of real estate the remedy of the creditor was against the adminis- trator ouhis bond, and of the administrator an order against the legatees to refund as provided by statute. From this judgment there was an appeal to the Circuit Court and Court of Appeals, whigh resulted in ifs reversal, the Court of Ap- peals being of opinion that the personal assets were not sufficient to pay the debts and directing an order forthe sale of the realty: From the judgment of _ tiie Court of there was an appeal Supreme Court, where the matter is pow pending. After the appeal from the judg- meut of the Probate Court, a motion was made and sustained, requiring the administrator to procure better security,;in default whereof his let- ters were revoked, and the Public Acdiministrator directed to take charge of the estate. The present proceeding is to ascertain the assets in the hands of the former administrator, for which he may be liable to his successor apd for judgnient against h and bis surety tor the amount so found. UNDER THE LAW regulating this proceeding it seems to be clear that the administrator removed is tiable to account to his successor not only for ali assets remaining in bis hauds unadministered at the time of his removal, but also fur ail assets tnat he has improperly administered. That he bas iliegally administered or Wasted the assets can- not be held to show that he accounted for for such assets in the meaning of the siaiute. He is then liable ip this proceeding for all assets which were once in hts hands and which are not shown to Lave been legally administered, that is applied in the manner required by law. And, since the payment of legacies iu derogation of tue rights of creditors is “devastavit,” he must be held to account to his stcecessor for such amount of the legacies he may have pald, or may be necessary to pay debts. The decision of the Court of Ap- peals 18 ln consonance With the prevalent Ameri- cau doctrine, that, without an order of court di- recling the administrator to take charge of the real estate lor the purpose of selling or leasing it to pay debts, it is no part of his duly or authority to meddle with it .in any respect. It tollows that in the present proceeding the former administrator will be held labile for all unadianistered property of the estaie, and for all legacies paid in derogation of the rights of creditors to the extent to which it may be neces- sary for the payment of debts now remaining un- ape and the necessary costs arising, and that he S not responsible for the rents or proceeds of sale ot real estate, nor entitled to credit for expenses or disbursements in connection therewith, either lor repairs, taxes (except such as arose for pos- session in the lifetime «of the tes- lator) or disencumbrahce, The items Of the administrator’s account which must be charged in consequence of this ruling are: Proceeds of sale of rea estate, $11,750, and rents. $1,692 50, must be struck out onthe debit Side; expenses of real estute for repairs, taxes and encumbrances dischargea,$14,431 15, and lega- cies paid, $19,400, which are to be deducted froin the credit side. This will change the balance in the administrator's settlement in his favor to a balance against him of $8:752 53, tor which judg- ment is accordingly given against him and his surety.” Mr. James O, Carson is the adminis- trator. William F. Ferguson ‘is the surety re- ferred to in the foregoing decision. Wa. H.
