In doing so I put’ that he tried to induce the Wisconsin delegates to } money, A VERY LARGE sum, was raised by this committee and expendea under the direction of Mr. Morton aad those whom he designated. So far as I know Gov. Jewell never received a dollar of this money, and I think a dol- lar would be about as much as he would have ex- pended with any political intelligence. Jewell Wasa good man, but good men are not always wise.” lected as the head of the committee? Politicians must have known his capacity.” “A mob generally hangs, and they rarely ever know what they hang for. I don’t care to say now an unkind word of Jewell, but I have always thought that it was more importaizt to hoe corn and dig potatves than it was to pay attention to the parting of my hair or cut of my coat. . Jewell was chosen chairman, simply because there was nobody else who would take it. It wasn’t there- fore a question of capacity. It wasa pure ques- tion of incapacity.” “Who composed the Finance Committee?” “Well, after three years I suppose that no one of them remembers that committee, or CARES A STRAW whether their names are mentioned or not. They were J. Pierrepont Morgan, Aug. Kunze, H. F. Hatch, John A. Stewart, Jesse Seligman, E. D. } Morgan, John M. Forbes, John H. Starin, C. B. Fisk, James R. Keene and some others. There | were some changes, I don’t remember who were put on and who were scratched off. That is the committee, however, as it was substantially made up. This committee raised and expended all of the large sum that was used during the campaign. How they spent it and what it was spent for are guestions that they are ‘better fitted to answer han I. The organization of this committee completed the fundamental work of the campaign. I presume that this was speedily foliowed by the famous Fifth Avenue Hotel con- ference. At that conference were Morton ‘and Arthur, Thomas C. Platt, John H. Starin and a very wealthy New York gentleman not promipent im politics, whose name [ will not now mention. Gov. Cornell was also there. I was present for the reason that they met in my room, and for the further reason that Gartield desired that I should be.” “What was the purpose of that conference?” “I do not aesire to reflect upon the living or dead, but history is history, and it may be of } service to the country to tell it. Therefore I say ‘that the sole purpose of the meeting was to in- duce the Republicans of NewYork to believe that they were . NOT TO BE CHEATED, as they had been before.”’ “Was there any agreement made thee to | whieh Gen. Garfield, as the candidate, became a ”? - “Why, certainly,” said the Seuator, in most yigorous utterance. “It was agreed point-blank to be made Secretary of thé Treasury in the event of Garfield’s election. There can bé no possible question or denial of that. The pergons whom I have already named above must bear witness to the truth of this statement. Senator Plumb of Kansas can bear witness, and from Gar- field’s own talk with him.” “Now, Senator, is it true that a trade was made with Garfield by Jay Gould and C. P. Huntingdon to secure the appointment of Stanley Mathews for Assistant Justice of the Supreme Court, and that the consideration was the payment of a very large sum into the treasury vf the National Com- mittee?”’ : “Well as to that, I will say that Garfield being dead, and the men he left behind him being many of them liars, 1 hardly care to trench upon the ; GRASS PLOT OF A GRAVF, or upon the edge ofafalsehood. Still I think it justto be just. I think it wise to be truthful. Men are living who can defend the dead if they care or dare to, I will say then, positively, em- phatically, that the trade intimated by the Sun is true in all its substantial features. I say categor- ically that Garfield promised the two greatest monopolists in New York, Jay Gould and C. P. Huntingdon, that Stanley Matthews should go at the earliest opportunity upon the Supreme bench, and he agreed, if the vacancy oceutred before he was inaugurated, that he would see to it that Hayes made the appointment. Those interested parties who seemed anxious to control the Supreme Bench promised the Garfield campaign fund $100,000. They paid their money and they got their man.” “Do you speak of your own knowledge?” “Why, of course; and I hardly think the par- ties to that arrangement will ake any denial. It is absolutely true.” “How do you know this money was paid?”’ “One of the most eminent men in New York brought it to me in Indianapolis.” “Mr. Thomas C. Platt?” “Since you name him, he was the man. I turned the money over to Mr. Ed. Stephenson, who is now, I believe, the president of a bank on Sixth avenue in New York. I[told him we didn’t need 80 LARGE A SUM in Indiana,and advised him to take a part of it back to Gov. Foster in Ohio. Forty thousand dollars was kept for Indiana. The rest went to Ohio. 1 want to say right here that I never received or paid out a penny during the whole campaign. At the com- mencement I had wit enough to remember the eunuchs of criticism.” “You say a large sum was raised and brought to you? The necessary implication is that this was .partially ob- tained from Jay Gould and C.’P, Huntingdon, in consideration of the appointment of Mat- thews.” ee “Well, you must draw yonr own inferences. I think on the whole that Mr. Gould, Mr. Hunting- don and a prominent editor of New York coula answer your question better than I can. As I never sold an office, nor bought a Cabinet Minis- ter, nor paid a price for election to public office, I cannot answer so weil. Well, let that go.” “It would seem from Garfleld’s published letters that you were the trusted man in Indiana, and that he knew this large sum was raised and sent to you. Did you receive such sums, and if you did, what did you de with them?” “Now you put my answer down just as I tell you. I know that you want to impose on me be- cause I AM ALMOST BLIND. Tnere was spent in Indiana about $400,000, not a nickel of which came into my hands.

H. Evans and Henry Wil- son, charged with grand larceny, was : called in the Court of Criminal Correetion this morning, a number of lawyers congregated within the bar to see the result. Two cooler and more deliberate defendants, it is safe to say, never faced the court. Mr, Evans is a money-lender on North Seventh street. Wilson is in his employ. When they took the defendants’ chairs a certain swagger was noticeable about their ac- tions, and they retained this exterior through the trial, though a hundred eyes gazed at them with contempt depicted in as many faces. The first witness Called by Messrs. Cornelius MacBride es P.N. Jones, special. counsel for the State, _ NED PERRY, A SWITCHMAN on the Missouri Pacific Railroad. His testimony simply laid a foundation for that of his wife who next took the stand. She was a young woman dressed in a cheap calico dress ana carrying ababy in herarms. She testified that she lived at Twentieth and Gratiot streets, and that shortly after she was married her bus- band was taken sick, and being pressed for money she called on D. H. Eyans ana mortgaged her fur- niture tohim. She received $29, and agreed to pay $5 per month interest until the principal was paid. After she had paid three months’ interest she discovered that her indebtedness was now although she had borrowed no subsequent sum. Having paid $40 she decided not to pay any more, and the result was that last July, a year after she first saw Evans, his employe, Wi son, came to her house and took away everything but the car- pet and machine. She begged him to leave her the bed, but he and two men he brought with him insisted on takin everything until the landlord interfered, and closed the door in the face of the men. : FOR THE DEFENSE Wilson took the stand, and by his actions in giving testimony brought down on him anything but favorable comment. According to his story the machine and carpet were-left simply at the request of the woman, although his mort- rage Called = for everything in the louse, and he had received instructions from his employer to take everything. When his charity was arraigued for inspection by afew neatly put sentences.formulated by Mr. MacBride, the charitable money-lender developed some temper and was net suppressed untii Juage Noonan warned him that he would send him to jail if he not make an immediate change in his conduct. He swore that he took the furniture from the house with the full consent of Mrs. Perry. The. furniture car driver and the man who helped in removing the furniture were called, but gave no testimony of importance. D. H. EVANS, THE MONEY LENDER, himself was next called in his own defense. He mounted the _ stand with the most disinterested air, and it was not until his attorney confided him to the mercy of Messrs. MacBride and Jones that he apparently woke up to the importance of the situation. Ac- cording to his sworn statement he made this transaction last August.. Mrs. Perry tame to him to borrow $50 on her furniture. He agreed to make the loan. Taking $50 he subtracted $15 for interest, and then drew up a mortgage for which he charged $8, and put ou the face of the note mak- ing the total $58. At the suggestion of Mrs. Perry, who incended paying one-half in one and one-half in two months, he made the notes of in- debtedness out on two sheets of paper each for 29. “If LT understand you then, sir, said Mr. Mac- Bride,"you gave this woman $85 ana charged her With $50, plus the $8 for making: out the mortgage ae pen out two notes for $29 each to cover 5?’ “Yes, sir.” “How muchdo you charge for making out a mortgage, when you can get the printed blank for ten cents?” ‘Never less than $7.’’ Atthis stage the defense rested, and Judge Noonan, who was thoroughly aroused at the ad- missions of the defendants, said: “I'll hoid these defendants in the sum of $1,000 each, and I'll take occasion to say here that this case is this: These people borrowed $35 and paid back $37% and then had their goods seized upon under two notes for $29 each. And all within twelve months. Pawnbrokers are’ bound down by ordinances of the city, and are in trutha. blessing in disguise to the poor and needy. The law places certain re- strictions on them, RUT THIS KIND OF BUSINESS IS INFAMOUS in the extreme, and if these are not leeches and vampires then I do not Know the mean- of the terms. 1 do not speak these defendants in _ particular, but the city is full of these men. It would be well if legislative action looking towards the abolish- ment, and, if not that, the restriction or regula- tion of this business, would be taken. I will hold these men in the sum of $1,000 each to answer be- fore the Criminal Court.” Deputy Sheriff Carr here sung out, “Step this way, Evans and Wilson,” and the dejected money- lenders wended their way totwo chairs under the eye of the sheriff. <A buzz of satisfaction ran through the court-room as the Judge concluded his denunciation.

PHILADELPHIA, August 9.—There was a very remarkable scene in a condemned murderer’s cell in Moyamenusing prison this afternoon, More than a year ago Jolin McGinnis was convicted and sentencea to suffer death for the deliberate murder of Mrs. Reed, his wife’s mother. Every legal effort to save his life has been made by his counsel and failed. His death warrant, signed by the Governor, reached the sheriff this morning. This afternoon, accompanied by two deputies, the sheriff went to the prison TO READ THE DEATH WARRANT to the doomed man as provided by law. MeGinnis had been told to prepare himself for bad news, The superintendent and one of the prison physi- cians accompanied the sheriff and deputies to the murderer’s cell. As the turnkey unbolted tne lock and threw open the door McGinnis rose from the bench on which he was half reclining ahd half sitting. He was very pale and nervous. When he saw who his visitors were his emotion over- came him and he fell upon his knees. Raising his nands he repeated earnest and fervent prayers in @ loud voice. This lasted a few minutes and then he was somewhat calmer but still very pale, and a nervous twitching was noticeable at the corners of his mouth. “McGin- nis,” said the sheriff, with considerable feeling, “IT am truly sorry that lam : THE BEARER OF BAD NEWS for you.” The sheriff paused. McGinnis’ face had turned to the color of ashes, his jaw fell, he meen poner and had to place his hand against the wall to steady himself. In a moment, however, he Pa ima control of bimseli and in a low voice said: “Go on, sir; I can bear the worst.” : i sheriff proceeded with his melancholy ask. “| suppose you understand what has caused this painful visit. The Governor last week signed the warrant for your execution, and it was received by me to-day.” “My God,” the doomed man murmured hoarse- ly, and then he said, more distinctly: “Go on, sir. 1 eres you.” “it is now my painful duty,” proceeded Sheriff. Keim, ‘to read the warrant fo you." The sheriff went through with the task. Ag 8002 as he had read THE INTRODUCTORY PHRASES McGinnis dropped on the bench and buried his head in hishanas. For a few seconds he shuddered violently, but after that he remained quite motion- less. When the sheriff had finishea he lifted his head from his hands and got upon his feet. Fora second he gazed steadily atthe little group and then he dropped on his Knees again and began to shout and yell. “My God! my God!” he eried, a = - die in this way? I call upon you,to pro- AS CHRIST WAS CRUCIFIED. by Pontius Pilate, so am I to be crucified by these men. Itisashame,an outrage,” and he arose, flinging his arms’ wildly in the air fora moment. Then be beat the walls of his ceil and shouted like aman bereft of his senses. Superintendent Perkins took him by the arm and whispered a few words of consolation in his ear, but the man would not be comforted. He was wild and threw the superintendent from him. Mr. Per- kins then took hold of him in a manner which plainly indicated that he was tired of the scene, and McGinnis calmed down sufficiently to listen to what Sheriff Keim had to say. The Sheriff said if there was anything he desired, not forbidden by the rules of the prison, it shoula be furnished to him, and every effort made to make his position as comfortable as pessible. At first he said there was nothing. Then he thought a moment and said: “Yes, there is something I would like. I would like to have asmoke and some tobacco.” This was promised him, and preparations made to retire, when he broke forth. again, calling upon God to protect an innocent man. When he had calmed down again, he said: “Oh, yes; I would like to be hanged upon my Knees.” The Sheriff shook hands with him and bade him good bye, and the heavy door was closed upon McGuinis.

Miss Alice Gilmore, whose adventures in New ‘York were recorded ina special dispatch to this paper yesterday, arrived in the city tunis morning, and is now at the home of her mother, No. 11s North Twelfth street. A reporter called on Mrs, Gilmore at noon and asked permission to see Allee, but was refused point blank. “Alice can- not be seen,” said Mrs. Gilmore in answer to questioning. ‘“Sne is very sick. When she left New York the weather owas warm and sne Was very thinly clad. She saysit was very cool on the train yesterday, and last night she was taken with a chill and a severe pain in the knees and feet. This morning her feet and limbs were so swollen that she had to be carried from the train and put intoa ¢arriage,, When the carriage ar- rived here she was Carried upstairs, and she has been vesy lever since: _- MRS. GILMORE was mueb concerned about her daughter's iliness an@ considerably exercised over the accounts of her adventures in the daily papers. “Prof. Will- jams did not take her ana Viola Mitchellto Chi- cago,” she said; “the girls went alone, They were told by bim that if they would go ww Chicago he would procure engagements for them. They went to Chicago. but did not get the engagements promised. They wrote to him immediately, but he neyer answered their let- ters. Then the poor girls found themselves in a bad fix, without money and without work. One morning, Alice says, she saw an advertisement in « paper for pretty girlsto enter a beauty Ccon- test, and she proposed to Viola that they apply to the manager for a place init, They did so, and were given places, but Viola did nov win the first prize, as the papers say. Sné didn’t get as many votes as Alice, and Alice came within four of the highest number, as the Chicago papers that I’ve got upstairs will show. hey received pretty ood wages from the managers and got along all right. When the show was closed the manager wauted Alice to go to Pittsburg to take part mn ANOTHER BEAUTY CONTEST there. She said she wouldn’t go without Viola, and at last the manager sent both there. Vioia won the second prize at Pittsburg and she took Alice with her to New York with the money. When they got to New York they rented a room. Then Viola fell in with a young man and she turn- ed around and told Alice to getout, that she didn’t want her around the rvom any longer, She turn- ed Alice out on the street and the poor girl said sne didn’t know what she would do to get along. She appliea for work to a dressmaker in Jersey City named Mrs. Kane, who asked her where she caine from. Alice told the lady her story, and the lady took her to the Uhiel of Police. She had to tell the story over again to him and he said he didn’t believe a word of it. He said that if she had a mother at 113 North Twelith street, St. Louis, he woutd telegraph her. Alice told him she wis atraid that the telegram would give me a nervous shock, she knowing that I was very nervous, but as he still disbe- lieved her she tid him that he might telegraph. So he did so, and TI[ _ received a teiegram last Monday reading, ‘Mrs. Gilinor: Have you a daughter Alice? Ifse whereis she?’ and signed ‘Chief of Police, New York.’ I WAS SCARED TO DEATH nearly, fearing that the child had been murdered, and [ telegraphea back that Lhad a daughter Alice and tle list time I beard from ber she was in New York. Then I received another telegram asking for money to pay her passage home, I showed it to some of my {[rlends and we talked about it, conciuding that,as [ had not heard directly from Alice, and that when I last heard from her she was doing weil, that some one was trying to get money out of me over the signature Chief of Police. I therefore telegraphed that lhad no money. As soon as they received the last telegram, Alice says. Mrs. kane and other ladies started a sub- scription and got up a purse to pay her way hoine, which they did and did it handsomely. So she arrived this morning, and if it wasn’t for the rheumatism or paralysis, or whaiever it is, I would be happy.” “Why did Prof. Williams send the girl to Chi- cago?”’ . “I don’t know. He has acted very singularly. Ss a good musie bs earn he is jbecause é& has written a method which is in very general use. But some time ago he beca™e possessed of acrazy idea that he coukl prepare young people for the stage. The way Alice got acquaintea with bim was through the mediuin of an advertisement for proposed when she went to him to prepare her for the stage without any compensation whatever until spe was an actréss. He not only taugiit her, but he paid hei board in a house on Pine street. He did the same for Viola. VIOLA’S PARENTS were opposed to her going on the stage, but she Was crazy to make a appearance, and contract- ed to go to work at Esher’s. Then she got up a scheme that she was going to Chicago. and had the Professor take ber down tothe depot, where she bude good-bye to her folks and left for Chicago. When she got to East St. Louis, accord- ing to her plan she left the train and came back over the bridge to St. Louis. Then she went up to the heuse on Locust street, where the Profes- sor paid her board. Alice’s little sister tuld the Professor that she would tell Viola's’ father about the matter, and this frightened the Professor, as the father is hot-ttempered. The Professor wouldn't let Viola go to Esber's then, but told her he would send her to a_ theater at Chicago. Both she and the Professor per- suaded Alice to accompany her, and that’s the reason Alice went. When they got to Chicago, as [ told you, they were let severe- ly alone by the Professor, and have never heard from him since, but I wouldn’t like to Dein his shoes when Viola’s father calls on him.” *How old ts the Professor?” “T don’t Know. He is a pretty old man.” “He always advertised for young girls, didn’t he?”’ “I don’t know. He always taught young girls.” “Is Viola a pretty girl?” “Yes. Shehas reddish hair, a white skin and browu eyes. She is larger than Alice, who is quite’a slender, little girl.” Mrs. Gilmore lamented the trouble she had met with because of Alice’s foolishness. She said she was a widow with a large family of little irls, and she hoped that her friends would be- leve that though Alice had been foolish she had not done anything wrong. . JUDGES’ JAUNTS.

A Post-DisPATUCHA reporter called on Geo. W. Parker, vice-president of the St. Louts, Alton and Terre Haute Road. this morning witha view io learning trom lim any facts concerning the Vanderbilt negotiations for the Belt Line. The reporter explained that he had called yesterday, bui was unable to meet the getitieman. Mr. lark- er admitied that there had been a general talk concerning the matter, but nothing thai could be coustried intoa negotintion transpired. He turther admitted that several gentlemen representing the Belt Road were present with maps and data showing the character of the project, but the president declined to give any hames or talk Ww any great extent about ihe conference. A gentleman who has a Iorge interest in the Forest Park and Central road sald last evening that bis line hada right of way tirough Forest Park which permitved any road to run its ears over its tracks,and if Mr. Vanderbilt wished to get to the city he could come in over the F. P. & C. Furthermore, the Forest Park line Would be Use- tul to the Beltline. “Hut bear in mind,” said the stockholder, “we don’t want to sellout. Weare not selfish and would like to have all these people use our tracks.” The talk of Vanderbilt buying the Belt Road charter with a view to building to Kansas City has started fresh rumors about how the line will be run. A Well-Known stocK speculator gives it as his opinion thatthe air line will be chosen. The reporter reminded him that the proposed route of this line crosses the Missouri Kiver twice. ‘Suppose it does, don’t it cut off forty miles be- tween here and Kansas City?” he asked, and then continued; “This saving in construction of road- bed would pay for oue of these bridges and then it would always be there and save a run éach trip of thirty-nine miles.” The Baitimore and Ohio officials, it is said, will be out West inside.of sixty days, and will confer with parties owning the various charters for buslding to the Missouri River.

OE ROE HT ES TK A TCC CR TE mn SPANISH OUTBREAKS, Fresh outbreaks in Spain, more risings of peasantry at widely separated points, show- ing the work of the Black Hand Socievy, more regiments in open mutiny, more secret sessions uf the Cabinet suddenly called, and more indications every day that ALFONSO’S kingdom is on the brink of another revo- lution. . The Republic of 1869 planted the seeds of a new political growth in Spain, as did the first French Republic in France, and though a Bourbon monarchy be reinstated again and again, it is an anachronism and must go. Young ALFonso is too rapidly developing the hereditary profligacy of his race. and in modern times that will not be tolerated in connection with heavy taxation and misgov- ernment visibly hastening the national decay. On our own shores we see a specimen. Just think ofan American State having to bear such a load as is imposed on Cuba! The last budget provides for taxes to the amount of $34,000,000 on the limited industries of that island—$4,000,000 of export duties, $15,- 000,000 of import duties, and these so levied as to compel Cuba to pay for Spanish pro- ductions twice the price at which they could be bought from the United States. In ad- dition to all this, Cuba has to carry a con- solidated debt of $75,000,000 and a floating debt of $135,000,000 incurred to maintain the Spanish flag in the Gulf#f Mexico. And yet Cuba is the most prosperous part of ALFONSO’s dominions. No wonder his sub- jects are in the mood for revolt. WHERE THE SHOE PINCHES. We observe that there isin the interior of the State a tendency to misunderstand the Downing Law trouble in this city, and to treat it as a sort of popular insurrection, organized and led by dramshop-keepers against high license. The factis that there is no popular opposition to high license, the sole distinctive feature of the Downing Law, and to its enforcement, as al! other dram- shop laws had been enforced. There would have been no visible opposition if its enact- ment had not been made a pretext for enforc- ing also the old Sunday restriction which had been a dead letterin all the preceding laws. And if this restriction had been directed only against the regular dramshops the keepers thereof would have been almost the only growlers. But when a law pro- fessediy enacted to regulate dramshops alone, was made the means of closing the beer-gardens, which have been the pleasant and orderly Sunday resorts of so many thousands of our industrious and law-abid- ing people all their lives, the surprise and indignation were by no means confined to the men, women and children who habitually frequent those places. It isa great mistake on the partof the Kansas City Star to assume that this feeling is confined to men “‘whose only respect for any law is thatarising from «a wholesome fear of the jail, the penitentiary and the gallows.” The Star appears to think that a failure to close the beer gardens of St. Louis will arouse “a worsedemon than intemper- ance—the spirit of hatred and opposition to alllaw.” It says: T his spirit has already a powerful lodgment in the breasts of thousands of people inour large cities, who see ho escape for themselves from the bonds of poverty and squalor, or yet Who are ex- cited to envy and bitterness by the splendor of wealth and wealth’s power, which everywhere stares them inthe face. To these classes the in- terdiction of the sale of liquor on Sunday appears like a direct blow at their privileges by the law- making class, between whom and themselves they feel an ever widening gulf, and this interference is resented accordingly, and by none more loualy or bitterly than by men who do not possess the requisite nickel to purchase a glass of beer. They want to feel that they could buy it if they had the money, and the mere fact of their inability to in- dulge their desires does not at all diminish their rage at being forbidden by the law to do so. If the Star man bad visited several of the principal beer gardens of St. Louis any Sun- day for a month past, he would have seen them crowded all day with families that came and went in their best clothes, as order- ly and as jinoffensively as people go to church or concert, from early morn till late at night. He would have seen no drunkenness, no rude or boisterous conduct. He would simply have seen many thousands of as good people as live on this earth enjoying with their wives and children a day of rest and relaxa- tion and social converse, under beautiful shade trees, emid fountains and flowers, lis- tening to the very best of music, which need not cost them the price of a glass of beer, if they do not choose to drink. These are the people in whose behalf a Puritan revival of the old dead Sunday law is denounced. Thousands of people who never drink beer are with them—people who resent all despotic restrictions on the liberty of the citizen and the innocent enjoyment of his family. They are people who belong to the law-making class themselves, and will be heard from in elections. Saree AN INCOME TAX, A very flimsy objection to an income tax is that one which rests on the constitutional provision that representatives and direct taxes shall be apportioned among the States according to population. The income tax stood for years and the collection thereof was enforced by the courtsin spite of that provision. The whisky tax, the tobacco tax, and all the other direct taxes are levied and collected by the Federal Government regard- less of that provision. Nobody contends that the whisky tax or tobacco tax collected in any State is unconstitutional because it is in proportion to the amount of taxable whisky or tobacco produced therein, and not h proportion to population. ¥ 4 a, ' | ninth section of the same article says: ‘‘No capitation or other direct tax shall be laid, unless in proportion to the census or numeration hereinbefore directed to be taken.” Butif the judicial interpretation of this clause does not prevent us from collect- ing a very large whisky or tobacco tax in one State, while another State of the same popu- lation is required to pay comparatively little of such tax, neither does it prevent us from collecting an income tax just wherever there are incomes to be taxed. Were there no need of an income tax for Federal purposes and to more fairly adjust the burdens of that government, or if it were specifically furbidden by the Constitu- tion to levy such a tax, the power of the States to tax incomes would remain unques- tioned and might be used with excellent effect. Herein Missouri we have railroad corporations which are taxed ona low valua- tion of their materials only, while they pay large dividends on a watered stock valuation of vast amount which escapes taxation. The predatory processes by whieh small invest- ments of capital have been converted into overpowering aggregations of wealth at the expense of the public must be checked some- how, and one of the ways of curbing thei is by taxing incomes. Corporations of a quasi public character, like gas and water and railway companies, which are endowed with monopoly privileges, must be restricted in their earnings toa fair remuneration for the capital invested and the service rendered, and when a part of theirincome appears in the contraband form of watered stock, it should be taxed doliar for dollar. THAT true and severely tried Republican statesman, STEPHEN W. Dorksuy, has broken out in a fresh place. He has another lengthy interview in the New York Sun, which has been telegraphed the Post-Dis- PATCH to-day, which is fu)! of splendid dance music, From his calm retreat at Mountain Spring Ranche the modern HOMER gives us the poetry of the campaign of 1880. He re- iterates the story of how GouLD and Hun- TINGDON—the railway magnates—put $100, - 000 into the GARFIELD campaign pool with the express stipulation that STANLEY Mart- THEWS, the corruptionist, should be ap- pointed to the Supreme Bench. While in the Senate, Mr. Matrnews, fresh from the theft of Louisiana, was regarded as the agent of GOULD, and his argument against the Thurman Funding Bill, which was de- signed to force GoULD and HUNTINGDON to pay the Government the millions that they were feloniousiy “holding out,’’ made his subsequent appointment by GARFIELD to a seat on the Supreme Bench a very suspicious performance. Mr. DoRszy’s revelations carry weight with them, but itis not at all probable that MATTHEWs will either resign or go out and hang himself. DORSEY, in his last epistie from his exile ranche to the Corinthians, pays ex-Senator CONKLING a fine compliment. He says that Mr. C. could have been nominated for Presi- dent at the Chicago Convention of 1880, by simply raising his finger, but when the mat- ter was suggested tohim, the proud, but honorable man, drew himself up and replied: “I was sent to this convention by my State to secure the nomination of Gen. Grant. I am here for that, and for that alone. I shall vote for Gen. GRANT’sS nomination, if I am the only manin the convention todoit. I should be false to my State, to Gen. GRANT, and to myself, if I allowed anything to be done that might lead to the defeat of GRANT'S nomination. I, therefore, would not accept the nomination from this conven- tion if it should be tendered unanimously.” @bhat’s Mr. ConKLING, and the more he is contemplated the better figure he cuts in American politics. How many men in his place would have pushed the sweet cup of the Presidency aside? —_—_—_—_— Waen Prof. JoHN PHa@NIXx organized his celebrated Government Surveying Expe- dition at San Francisco he took remarkable pains to furnish a govud berth to every mem- ber of the PHa@nix family that he could lay hands on. -In organizing his Yellowstone Park Exploring Party—fer the especial de- lectation of the President of the United States—Gen. SHERIDAN drew as heavily as be could on his own family for material. He gave his brother MIKE the position of “Offi- cial Correspondent.” MicHAEL is gaid to pe a rather charming out-door coinpanion with slight tendencies to Western hoodlum- ism. HAVING placed a prohibitory tariff on Chi- namen the Government now finds itself con- fronted on the Pacific coast with a new form of smuggling. The reyenue steamer Walcott has just captured a sloop engaged in the ne- farious business of running inhibited Mon- golians across the line froin British Colum- bia. Secretary FoLGER is expected to look after these “‘assisted immigrants” as soon as he returns to his office. This may be considered an attractive country, in view of the fact that some people take great risks in order to break into it. EMPERORS WILLIAM and FRANz Josern, the well-paid representatives of Teutonic power, are having their annual amicable “meet” at Ischl, the charming little water- ing place of Upper Austria. The twain rode out together the other afternoon and attended the theater in the evening. Emperor WItL- 1AM is looking well, but his age is weighing on him and he predicts that thisis the last time that he will snuff the sulphur baths .of Ischi. THE perplexing question, what shall we do with our money. is as good as.settied. The Secretary of the Treasury has decided to build vaults to put the silver doilars in.—[Kepublicap. .

New YorK, August 9.—The Times says; ‘With private scandals among the Star Route thieves the pubiie does not care to concern Itself. They are incidental and suvordinate to the main ertme.

Louis, August 8, 1883, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Your issue of yesterday gives to Dr. I. H. Salisbury of New York, the credit of having, in 1858,originated the use of hot water for the cure of diseases. Have vou forgotten an old friend, Dr. Sangrado, who, I dou’t Know how many hundred years ago, used nothing elise as an internal remedy for every ill? It is true that he also drew away biood as fast as he administered bot water, claiming that the human syetem, except in perfect health, had no use for the former article, but who knows that we shall not soon have this also asa part of the hot watercure. 1am not an old man, but I can recolleet that when the Doctor was seen coming the good mother at ence got out the best basin, a clean towel aud the newest broom handle to grasp. Seriously speaking, the use of hot water is an excellent thing, fur many simple diseases of the mucous linings of the stomach aud bowels, headaches and fora general cleansing of the sysiem, but it willnotdotoreiy upon for every disease.

They always say they bold a bushel, and very often they do not, AN INTRESTED PARTY. The Adulteration of Beer. From a Washington Special. For some years after beer became a National beverage in the United States the popular belief was that its cheapness forbade the idea of adul- teration, but of late it has been very apparent that the popular belief is a popular delusion, and beer drinkers have awakened to the sad conscious- ness that underneath the sparkling foam of the beer-cup lies hidden the agencies of disease and death. It will be welcome intelligence, therefore, to thése interested to read that, under the revised form of brewers’ returns, adopted by the Internal Revenue Bureau, every brewer in the United States will hereafter be required to return, under oath, the character of every ingredient used in the manufacture or adulteration of beer, with severe penalties for false returns. If this does not stop adulteration, beer drinkers will at least have the satisfaction of knowing what kind of poison they are taking into Lheir systems. Kqualize the Taxes. Frem the New York World. The Providence Journal objects to the income tax that it “discriminates between the mch and poor,” that is, that it “so far burdens one class without touching the other.” What we object to is taxes that discriminate between the rich and poor ana that burden one class without touching the other, aud thus far we agree with the Providence Journal, but it is precisely to correct this diserim- ination and to make the burden more uniform that we are in favor of the income tax. As the Repub- lican party bas for twenty years levied taxes on the people to build up the gigantic fortunes of the few, it ought not. in common justice, to object to @ tax which would be borne principally by the rich for the benefit of the peuple.

I HAVE recently seen ‘paragraphs, announcing the intention of Mr. and Mrs, So-and-So to take the lecture platform the coming season, which leads me to repeat the remark made by an experienced manager in this hne. He said there was no sure card in the lecture field to-day, except Bob Inger- soll, who managed his own business and would make terms with no one. Ingersoll’s method is to rent a hall or theater, pay for bis newspaper ad- vertising and bill-posting, and pocket the entire profits himself. He generally has a young man acting in the capacity of agent and secretary who attends to all outside business. Beecher’s terms—$i.000— are regarded as too high, and he seems to have lost a great dealof his attracting power. Tak mage was a curiosity fora season, like Oscar Wilde, and can no lounger be depended on to draw. The humorists, poets, politicians, scientists, eic., who used to be trotted outof their privacy to lecture just as soon as their reputations began to draw, are heard of no more, aud, indeed, the fact is to be lamented that the once popular style of instructing the intelligent masses from the plat- form is gradually dying out in this section of the country at least. A few years ago we had lecture bureaus without number; to-day. St. Louis is not only without a bureau, but there is nota single promise of a lecture to be given here during the winter season. «*e “THE stylographic pen,” said a prominent dealer in stationery, addressing the Lounger, ‘“‘seems to be a very simple invention, but the man r who originated the idea has made $1,000,000 out of it; the marking pen for shading In different colors has already brought its inventor $100,000.” This reminds me of men who have invented articles of a seemingly trifiine character and have made fortunes thereby.

He paid $36 50 for the outfit and got a _ written guarantee that the articles were what the | sellers represented them tobe; but the guarantee was couched in such ambiguous /anguage that it wasn't werth the time, energy, ink and paper ex- ended on it: As the countryman left the store, I pped him on the shoulder and asked him to aec- company me to a jeweler’s to ascertain if he had really met with a bargain. We went into one of the largest jewelry stores on Fourth street, and au expert after examining the articies said the watch Was worth about $3 and «a better chain could be got atthe dollar store. Then we took the treasure to a Locust street pawubroker and asked how much he would lend on it. He said he couldn’t advance more than $1 530. The vis- itor from St. Charles county felt preity sick, but suid he didn’t want his naime in. the papers so he thought it best to keep yutet an wait till he got back home, where he might suc- ceed in swapping off the orvide trinket on some ef the boys for a nickel or silver “ticker.” * » THE auction-store jucident calls to mind the statement made py a manufacturer of plated jewelry that there are mure “snide” ornaments worn by the fair sex now than anybody hus any idea of. Lafge quantities of these goods are turned out of the factories annually and find ready sale not only in the small shops but in first- class establishments. Plated bracelets that wear one or two years without betrayiag thretr deceitful character are sold at fron’ $4 tu $104 pair, the sume styles in gold selilyg at $25 to $40. Plated neck chains in a “variety of styles can be had from $12 to $22, rivaling in beauty of ap- pearance and qlality of workmanship the solid goid chains that sell at from $60 to $100. Plated breastpins and earaings, the latter with imitation diamond drops, are aiso fashionable, even with ladies of means, and, indeed, nearly ali ornaments are shoduy, except finger-rings, which are kept free from alloy. Gentlemen, too, are taking to plated vest chains, and two-thirds of those thas are worn Came classed with the cheap and snide jewelry that is now all the rage, e oa 7 “Tr is a curious fact,” sald a well-known Cath olic priest, “and one not generally known, | | that; although Archbishop Kenrick has owuead a large amount of reali estate here and handled an immense amount of money he cannot to-day poim toachureh or a se house that he has caused to be built.

Its advertisements, woielh, when fresh commanded little atieucion, become invested with attraction. it brings us back tw by-gone days, mauners and Customs, How strange the follow- ing notice, published in the Observator of Decem- ber 3, 1684: “A gentleman having been requested to translate Ariauas his Epicetus into Euglixh, bath so far advanced it, that the same wil, ina very short time, be published, and Uys notice is given to pre- vent interfering with the same design.” There is something particularly evol about this whether it is tuken as a proof of excessive sim- plictty or as a waroing to other pablishers, The following advertisement Francis Moore whose almanac set's by UWiousands to the present day. apveared Mm 1712; “At the oid baal B Christchurch Patish, Sou liveth 7 vi di Se i ent the Peres Geum, w th eis Moore, licensed | Ub ppeare | Hic gill who, by the zou, | si Ses? ; F 2 ee Ve Te nee sac Wee & o rived at as to the war indemnity. The Peruvians are willing to pay a money indemnity, but the Chilians desire the Guano province of Tarrapaca,. Heretofore no one has been authorized two cede territory, but a congress cailed last April gave that power to the executive and there is a pros- pect of a settiemeut.

Laws, of the State University, is in the city to-day in the interest of a projected addition tw the university buildings. He stated to a re- orver that the bronze copy of Houdon’s statue of Vashington, which he has secured for the uni- versity grounds, has not yét been gy but will be Sent as soon as arrangements can com- pleted. He things the statue will be placed with the companion one of Jefferson at oppusite ends of a new pilot of campus in front of the new wings ot the college. He says that there are only five of these bronze copies in existence, by Hubard— not, a$ @rroneously spelled, Hubert—and if. as the statement has been made, oue of these copies is in the Lafayette Park, which the Woctor will investigate, these are two of the five copies In the State of Missourn. The acquisition is a valuable one, because the original stutue has been s0 de- faced by the Casts taken that the authorities are not likely to allow another to be made, and the model of Hubard has been destroyed. Changed the Date. The secr of the Soctety of the Army of the Tennessee has issued a circular changing the date of the annual reunion, which isto be held at Cleveland. The first announcement was that the reunion would be bela on the 3d and 4th days of Octover. Gen. Hukealooper, tie secretary, flow reenlls that cirenular, ana, instead, he announces that the sixteenth annual reunion will be heid at Cleveland, Ohio, on Wednesday ana Thursday, October 17 and 18, 1883, The annual address will be delivered by Gen, Samuel Fellows. All ar- rangements for the meeting will be under the charge of a local executive committee, of which Gen. M. D. Leggett is chairman. CITY HALL NOTES, Twenty burial certificates were issued to-day.

The coal is wonderfully plenty. I saw on one farm two and a baif miles southeast of Caroon Center, a seven and one- half toot vein of solid coal, and in another corner of the farm an eleven feet vein, Now all that a man has to do is to scrape the crust of slate from the coal and then throw the coal into a car.” Mr. Gilmore said that in prospecting he came across wonderful cases of petrifaction, one being a tree, sixty feet in length andtwo and one-half in diameter, and another a large egg.

Reared in Aristocratic Luxury and Now Living Upon Charity in Lock Haven. Lock Haven Correspondence of Philadelphia Times. In an huinble dwelling in that part of Lock Haven known. as. “The Devii’s Half Acre,” lives a niece of Benediet Arnold, Mrs. Ann Roan, a widow, aged between eighty and ninety years. The story of her life 8 romantic. Although living by charity she isof noble birth, Her paternal grand- father was a French nobieman, to whom was given the city of Florence for his coat-of- arms. Her father, Matas De Haas, is men- tioned in history several times for his daring exploits: Major,De Haas married a Miss Shippen, of Philadelpuia. His wife's sister was the wife of Benedict Arnold. While stationed in Philadelphia as commandant Arnoid feli in love with Miss Shippen, who was @ lady of aristocratic antecedents and Tory predilections. Mrs, De Haas died when her daughter. Mrs. Roan, was very young. After her death Major De Haas abandoned the gayety of city litle and came with his family to Clin- ton County, then ‘almost a perfect wilder- ness. Hetraveled to here in a magnificent coach, heavily drapea in mourning and drawn by richly eaparisoned horses. The appear- ance Of the Major’s coach always created a stir, because of the splendor of its equip- ments and the numberof his servants. He was Wealthy and purchased much land be- tween this city and Rock Creek, a small tuwn southwest of here. Among the last of his possessions were the farins now or re- cently owned by the heirs of Messrs. Hollen- back, Hering and Whitefield, all located in tie district mentioned. Mrs. Roan was the youngest daughter, and to her Was given the surname of her mother. She married Joshua Roan, a biacksmith, who had intemperate habits. After her marriage she either drifted away from or was disowned by her father, who died with- out leaying her any of his weaith. For many years she lived at Mill Hail, a smal! village, four mifes from Lock Haven. At that place, her husband fell upon a knife, while drunk, and killed himself. Mrs. Roan is the mother of three children, but they seem to have lit- tle regard for her welfare, and for a long time she has lived upon the charity of a kindly-disposed family. She is small of stature, with a face grooved by the varied experiences of a life begun in all the iuxunant comforts of wealth and aristecracy, and soon toend asa charitable charge. Her hair is thin and gray. Her sight seems to be unimpaired, She is able to knit and do other kinds of work without the. use of speciacles. When your corre- sponvent referred to her weaithy and aristo- cratic parentage, she exclaimed: ‘“‘Ah, yes, sir; no one can deny that my father owned thirteen plantations a: one time, and I could step irom one to the other without crossing any other land. I never saw wy mother, and ain not certain as to my age.” Mrs. Roau’s brother, Philip, was the fath- er ol the wife of the late James Chatham of this city, Alex DeHaas, Joseph DeHaas and Marv J. Joansun of Beech Creek, and Wiil- liam DeHaas of Corsica, Jeilerson county. She had two brothers besides Philip—Wil- liam and Edward—and two sisters—Eliza and Harriet. Mrs. Roan and Edward are the oniy inembers of the family living. The iatter, an cld man, lives wiih his son, John P. DeHass, on Marsh Creek, Centre county. Mrs. Roan’s mother’s sister, Mrs. Bingham, is referred to as fuliows in an articie pub- lished im oue of the Philadelphia news»papers suine years ago: “Here is Mrs. Bingham, once Miss Shippen, an acknowledged lea ier of society. who, having reigned at the court of Louis XVL, has returned to establish her brilliant salon in Philiadeiphia, and of whom that man of sound juagujeht, Jolu Adams (aiterward President), says ‘Taken aito- gether, she is the huest woman! ever saw.’ ”’ Mrs. L1zziE WHEELER, St. Louis, Mo., says: “Brown's iron Bilieis gave me great relief from dysvepoia.” SECURE your help through the help wanted col umus of the Post-DispaTcH.

For several days the Denison House $- ter has borne the inseription “*C. O. B. Bry- ant and three young iadies, Long Islau/, N. Y.”. Mr. Bryantis a handsome, elderly gen- tleman, abvut sixty years old; two of the oung tedies are his daughters, one of whoin s about fourteen years old, the other per- haps two years older, and the third young lady is fifteen, or thereabouts. They are bright aud pretty giris, well dressed aad jadylikée in depertment. On Sunday even- ing Mr. Bryant and the three young ladies were in the hotel dining-room. it was late and few persons were there, most of the guests having eaten and depart-d. One young man Was there, a youtn of twenty-four or twenty-five summers. He fs a travelin man and a masher, and his baleful eve ha no sooner hted on the girls than he marked them for his own. He attempted to attract their attention by various signais : pkta, rol and Bryant. Mr. Brvant thought the young man needed cooling off, and, filling a glass With ice-cold water, he rose from the table, and, walking over to the table where the conmercial tourist sat, he poured the obia- tion over him. The young man sputtered, shivered and disappeared, and the oid gen- tleman, without saying a word. but with the proud consciousness of having done a go: action, returned to his’ seat and continu his repast. The traveler was mopped off b a couple of waiters and taken into the ordi- nary tu finish his meal, undisturbed by, the contempiation of bewitching beauty. J. L. RoysToN, St. Louis, Mo., says: “Brown’s Iron Bitters is certainly an invaluable tonic.” Weeping Widows. From the Brooklyn Eagle. Ono day last week three funerals arrived at the gate of Greenwood Cemetery merge ar As the mourning carriages drew alongside of each other the oecupants of two began to scream and sob as though their hearts would break. Shrieks rent the air, and exclama- tions of grief echoed from under the great stone arch of the gateway. “Are you going to be outdone by those two widows!” indignantly demanded a friend of the third. who had preservea a marked and marvelous silence. “Think I’m going to bawl myself hoarse and have nothing left for the grave?” was the angrv rejoinder. “Let them have it out now, aud by and by, when they are so done out they can’t whisper, I’ll peal outina fashion that’ll make ’em think they never heard a funeral betore.’’ And reengiang the deep sagacity of the level-headed bereaved the friend smiled en- couragement, and was rewarded by seeing the other two mourners knocked out in the first round whén all three arrived at the grave side. They Wanted Snipe’s Feather. From the Ithaca Democrat. Two well-known sportsmen of this place were recently casting flies for troutona stream some twenty miles from this village, when a singular thing took place. They had tried several varieties of flies without suc- cess, notwithstanding the fact that quanti- ties of fine fish were plainly to be seen swim- ming about near the surface. Every attempt to iuduce them to rise to the fly was unavail- ing. Suddenly, our informant states, as he gave his line a smart fling, a bird, commonly Known as a “‘teeter snipe,” flitted across the Streain justin time to have the hoox strike its body and detach a small feather. No sooner had the hook, witn the snipe feather attached, reached the water, than it was seized by a fine trout. This fish, with five others, was quickly landed, when the snipe’s feather became detached and_ was lost. Then the sport was at an end, for the fish would not rise to any other sort of fly. From Springfield, Md., Mr. Chas. G. Addison writes as follows: “I had asevere sprain in my right Knee, cumpeiling me to use crutches for sev- eral weeks. I found no retief in other remedies aud fiually tried St. vacobs Oil. In a short time I could bend my Knee aad before using a bottle I laid aside my crutehes aud was abie to walk as Well as ever.’’ Snow in July. From the London Times. With the middle of this month a great change of temperature set in over Central Europe, andin the Alpine districts winter seeiued to have come back again. On July 15 the whole of the Carinthian Alps were covered with a heavy fall of snow. “ am ~ x. ’ me BS F ok eu by ——_ eet ne EE Sy allt ow Va Rg EY Aaa iy PR APS eas : es) i aaa Marval : =) 4 a > y ‘ me Ft, . “fe eal ' 4: enr43 .

Some Pointers for Skillful Mechanics of Moderate Means—A Way Out of the Woods. Special Correspondence of the Post-Disvatch. CLAY CENTER, Kan., August 4.—The primary object in hnman life seems to be to belter our temporal condition, and by so organizing and dl- j recting the agencies for the accumulation of wealth, endowed upon us by inheritance or subse- quent education, that we may in the afternoon of our life enjoy that satisfaction which cometh with a knowledge that we have done well, that we have accumulated enough for ourselves and to accom- plish our heart’s desires, whether they be direct- ed to the welfare of our families, the education of our children or the aggrandizement of the race. It is difficult to break the shackles of slavery, and toa certain extent workmen, however profi- cient, are slaves, with the taskmaster necessity, and the only glimmer in the darkness of the fut- ure, the ignis fatuus, which vanishes almost as soon as fairly grasped, salary or wages, as it is termed whea given to those occupying an unoff- cial position. There are many skilled and experienced work- men, some foremen in different manufacturing in- stitutions, in the East, who have SAVED A LITTLE MONEY, and to those we wish to present “‘the tide which, taken. at the flood,” we vhink, “leads on to fort- une.” The opportunity is Western manufacture ; the medium, vourselves; the location, Clay Cen- ter, Kansas, if it appears the best, and in fact the whole Western country, rich in raw material and r in skilled labor; wealthy in resources, lack- ng in capital. We will give youa pen picture of ad county and its resources; also a little sketch *) CLAY CENTER, one ofthe brightest towns in the entire galaxy of Kansas gems. The city is charmingly located near the center of the county, upon the northeast bank of the Republican River, which at this point is impeaed in its flow by a fine dam which cost $40,000, furnishing a good water power which might still be utilized by numerous manufacturing institutions. The railway outlets are good and promise to become better. The city is on the Junction City and Fort Kearney branch of the Union Pacific Railway, 171_ miles from Kansas City, and upon the Kansas Central division of the same road, 150 miles from Leavenworth, being able thus to readi- ly reach ail Eastern markets. The new railroad scheme, which has now progressed so far that it 1s deemed a certainty, is the Nebraska and Kan- sas Extension of the Great Diagonal Line now being built through lowa, from McGregor, on the Mississippi River, to Nebraska City, Neb., on the Missouri, and from thence still southwest throngn Clay Center, thus uniting them with the immense reciprocal trade of the great Northwest. The io of Clay Center has been rapid and steady. In place of the 1,751 citizens counted in 1880 we find fully 3,000—of a wide-awake, spirited and never - take - a- back - seat class of business and professioval men. Their schoo! building is a beauty. It occu- pies a picturesque and commanding site, and spreads its benefactions equally to the rich and poor. The property is valuea at $30,000, and the school has eight departments. There are five church edifices, vaiued at $20,000. The citizens are about organizing a public library. There are FOUR POPULAR NEWSPAPERS, the Dispaich, Limes, and Cresset (weekly), and Baptist Kansas (monthly), all eruditely aud care- fully edited; ten civic societies; an opera house seating 600, wilh stage, scenery, and various appurtenances; a volunteer fire depart- ment, with engine; a present water sup- ply from street cisterns, but consider- able agitation regarding a direct pressure system which is easily available, a new telephone exchange, four hotels, one of them unusually good, three banks, business houses of every de- scription, a commercial business the past year approximated at $1,870,500, a small debt of $15,000, three elevators, handling capacity about ten cars each; exports to the value of $1,735,755 during the year ending July 1,and no business deficiencies, unless it be a Board of Trade for protection and centralization of individual efforts and a Building Association to aid those who might desire to build but lack sufficient means. Among the manufacturing interests we note three fine flouring mills with a daily capacity for about 400 barreis, a foundry and machiné shop, a creamery, two brick yards, and a marble works. All of them are doing well. wr cherry exist for the establisimentof a small packing house for cutting and curing meats, a vegetable canning works, a starch or hominy mill, a hatchel, —_ walk and twine mules, with some one with skill to operate them, or a linseed oil mill. A eye at the productions of Clay County to follow will show that this is not bua- combe, but solid sense. CLAY COUNTY is penetrated in its entire extent by the Repub- lican Ktver and its many tributaries, a lovely valley, whose gentle, undulating slope from each side to the streams is relievea by tim- ber along their borders and presents to the be- holder many happy landscape pictures. It is situated in Northern Central Kansas, being in the second tier south of the Nebraska line. It is twenty-two by thirty miles in size with an area of 422,400 acres and a population of 14,320, an in- crease in one year of 2,083, which has only béen exceeded by four-counties in the State and those all with large cities. The soil is rich, alluvial and limestone, known as “valley land,’ with a subsoil of yellow, red clay and substratas of lime rock, shale and sandstone. This season Clay County has 92,025 acres in corn, an increasein acreage of 6,399 acres since 1882, and the favorable season has assured an average of fully 40 bushels, with nearly 1,000,000 bushéls corn on hand March 1. Winter wheat yielded 18 to 20 bushels, as it has forthe past three years, with an increased ay- erage. Oats magnificent: 13,658 acres yielded 641,926 bushels, an average per acre of 47 bushels. Rye, flax, castor-beans, broom-corn, millet, and all vegetables have been prolific this season. Fruits, especially peaches, do finely, but the yield: will increase argely as the orchards in- crease in age. In 1882 there were 137,100 fruit trees in bearing, and 158,464 not in bearimg. HOGS AND CATTLE represent the most promineut stock interest in Clay county, and thousands of cars are marketed in the East from here an- nually. Farmers are learning fast that corn loaded into a car as grain means 20 to 30 cents per pushel. while as hogs or cattle it means 50 or 60 cents per bushel, There were in the zcounty at the last Assessors report, 1882: Horses and mules,7,255 ; Cattle,11,889; sheep,3,732 : swine,20,311. Value of animals sold for slaughter, 1882, $230,- 727. Value of cropsin Clay County $1,985,376 87. Assessed valuation of real and personal property basis about one-third, $2,892,838. County indebt- edness is $108,000 at6 per cent. Taxes range at 1844 mills exclusive of school and township tax, and there are 100 schools in the county. a Farms range from $10to $30, with lands from $5 to $10 per acre, and the Milk and Honey Trail, | published here monthly says: “In another decade the choice improved lands that can be bought for from $10 to $25 per acre, 1 expect to see seil- ing rapidly. at from $30 to $50.” Good building material is abundant, lime-stone and sand-stone, fine brick and potter’s clay, Kaolin and gypsum.

The marriage tu West Virginia con- fiicts with the letter written from this city in which she states they were married at the Rock Church. She wants her mother to write, but gives no address, so far as street and number are con- cerned, andfrom this and other circumstances the parents are still firmly convinced that she went off with Hurd, the sewing machine agent. Her health is excellent except that she has become so deaf as to be unable to hear the loudest talking, which is stated in the letter received yes- terday, and also that within three or four weeks she will be at home, and this is more than likely to be the case, though not with her “darling Frank.”’ NEw cigarettes—Little Beauties, round, Turk- sh and Virginia tobacco.

The first intimation of the coming of the Veiled Prophets has made its appearance in the shape of a splended portrait of the magnificent and august ruler of the V. P. S., mounted on his dragon, and holding in his hands the wand of power and ap edict to the citizens of St. Louis, commanding them to prepare for a brilliant pageant,on the night of October 2, 1883. A comparison of this lithograph with the excellent work of 1881 and 1882 shows commendable improvement in clear- ness of detail, fichness of color and artistié finish ; in fact, it is perfect in these respects and is a masterpiece of work in the art of lithographing. It cannot fail to command attention and universal admiration, and if it may be taken as an Index of the Veiled Prophets’ pageant, this year’s effort will far surpass anything evér before produced. This really beautiful piece of work was designed by Compton, of course, who has designed all of them, and was printed by the Compton Litho- graph Company. NO REST DAY OR NIGHT. In the fallof 1875 my sufferings were terrible. I was swollen to such proportions that I feared my limbs would burst. I had the best medical talent ob- tainable, ana at the worst stage of my illness, when my husband and many friends had given me up to die, the late Dr. John Woodbury made a thorough examination of my water, and pronounced my case acute kidney disease, bordering on Bright’s disease, and accompanied by gravel, and recommended the immediate use of Hunt’s Remeay. At this time I was suffering most terrible vain in myjfback, limbs, and head, and could find no rest day or night for weeks,andI was growing weaker daily until this kind physician ordered me to taxe Hunt's Remedy. Before taking half of one bottle I commenced to im- prove, and aiter taking six bottles I was entirely cured. This was neerly eignt years ago, and I have had no return of the disease. I have recommended Hunt’s Remedy to others in similar cases, and it has never failed to cure. I have also used it for sick headache, and found in it a sure relief. I think it the best medicine made, and cheertully recommend it to all, Mrs. W. H. STILSON, No. 16 Tyler street, Boston, Mass. April 18, 1883. A WELI-KNOWN MAN. Hunt’s Remedy having been recommend:d to me for kidney and liver complaints, I purchased some at the “People’s Drug Store’’ and used it in my family, and found it to be a very valuable medicine, and I gladly recommend it highly to my friends, knowing it to be beneficiai to those troubiea with kidney or liver disease.
