AMERICAN KINGS. — Republic Develops Full- Fledged Princes. _ — — How These Dynastics Control the Interests | of the Country—Some Singular Compari- sons — King Gould |., Vanderbilt, Astor, Huntingdon, Mrs, Stewart, Mrs. Stevens— A Long List of Potentates. The By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New YorkE, August 22.—In an editoria! on “Our American Kings’ the World to-day has the fol- lowing; When we speak of certain men as money kings or railroad kings, the expression sounds- like a figure of speech. This is a republic. We are all equal. Such a thing as a King in this country is an absurdity. Yet the name is ali that is wanting. There are men in this country who have every attribute of a King except the name. Like kings they derive their revenues from taxes on the people. Like kings they control legisla- tion. Like kings they are masters of the will and of the work of tens of thousands of their fellow- men, The chief distinction is that our kings AKE MUCH RICHER and more powerful than some of the kings they There is King Vanderbilt LL. Nobody knows exactly how rich he is, because, unlike other kings, he does not allow his subjects to scrutinize his civil list. but he is a very rich and powerful king. His fortune is estimated at $208,- 000,000. Inthe years when he only builds palaces and buys paintings and does not buy nickel-plate roads, his yearly civil list ranges from $14,000,000 to $20,000,000. He buys 50,000,000 of 4 _ cent bonds at a single investment. He econtrois over 6,000 miles of railroads. The area of . HIS TERRITORY is very large. His subjects grumble a great deal under the burdens he lays upon them, but the only answer he makes to their remonstrances is, * subjects be damned!” Then there is King Gould I., the founder of the dynasty of the Wabash Line. Heisnotasrichas King Vanderbilt, but heis much abler and more powerful. He hasa LARGE KINGDOM called the Southwest System, which other kings have attempted toinvade with fatal results to themselves. Healso controls the forces of elec- tricity and of the telegraph over the whole country. His tities are numerous and imposing, such as King of Wabash, Prince of Erie, Great Mogul of the Western Union, and Grand Duke of the Union Pacific. Heis nota poormonarch. At one time when his subjects in a part of his dominions called “the street,”’ were alarmed lest he might be falling into poverty, he re- assured them by showing a committee some fifty odd millions of securities that he Kept tied with a string. We have a whole congress of railroad kings. Huntingdon is a rail- road king, whose dominions stretch through to California, from California tq Mexico and New Orleans, with one or two priblcipalities in West Vireihia. Villard is king of Oregon and the N. P. over A TERRITORY LARGER than the German Empire. No man dare lay a mile of railroad track against the will of this rail- road king. The dry goods king died and left no successor, and the sceptre of Pennsylvania is “in commission.” But three of the four bonanza kings (Mackay, Fair and Stanford) rule over the bonanza land and threaten to invade the great money kingdom of Wall street. We bave more kings and than all Europe put tegether, Commedore Van derbilt is.a tine type of.a ‘‘monar¢h retired from business.” The ASTOR DYNASTY controls revenues that would make an average Eu- ropean potenate turn green with envy. It takes a loss of $7,000,000 tu break one of our lard kings. Our grain Kings make a million dvllars every time they turn acorner. The standard of king Rocka- feliow is the Standard Oil Company—the civil list | of the company. more kinds of Vane language as double the value of a gift. He says: “T sympathize with them for the a mistake they made, and there will be no punishment meted out tothem.” The sympathy of a good man flows LIKE THE OIL on Aaron’s head, like the dews of Zion feeding Hermon’s sacred rill. And the best of it is that it doesn’t cost a cent. Not a cent. On the can- trary, there is money in it. As a general rule, } bene: costs money. Rude people ask sympa- thizers “how much do you sympathize?” but the eon Doctor Green’s sympathy is of 1 6=6hr Kkind~=~—Swihhtiich ilds his reputation without lessening is bunk account. e says: “As I told Gen. Eckert this afternoon, the several bundreds of thousands of dollars which have been iost in the strike I regard to be the best financial investment made’ by the com- pany. Hereafter, Gen. Eckert tells me, he will get one-third more work out of aman for a day’s service, and the economy of such a step will re- trieve the loss in less than six months,” A hara- hearted man in Dr. Green’s place would have had ho sympathy with the operators, and would have made them work double. But Dr. Green HAS SYMPATHY, and he will only add one-third to the burden against which they protested. Although they have been guilty of the crime of trying to better for less work. no punishment will be meted out to them. They wiil even get the same pay, but they “willget one-third more work out of them.” What a good thing*for the operators it is that they have as kind a man as good Dr. Green at the head They have his sympathy and only one-third more work to do for the same pay. ‘If the company were managed by one of the wicked partners the lot of the operator would not be so easy nor bis life so happy.

NEW York, August 22.—S. G. Pratt’s opera, “Zenobia,” was produced at the Twenty-thira of this Kingdom amounted to some seventy-two millions of dollars during the past ten years. A queen-dowager here, such as Mrs. Stewartor Mrs. Stevens, would be compelled to economize, if she had only the priyy purse of Queen Victoria, A second-class European monarch ts getting big pay when he draws half amiliion dollars tor being king and supports his poor relations with his money. But we have hundreds of people in this country who QUIETLY POCKET that amount every year without letting any one know anything about it until their estate reveals the secret. Wedo not cail these — Kings over here. We have some pride in our kings and when we call a man a Kkiug we mean it. What are the pigmy monarchs of Europe compared with these kings ef ours? The Czar of Russia is supposed to have an income of $10,000,000, but he has to spend itin alot of court rubbish whether he wants to or not.. He COMES THE NEAREST to being an American king, but nnoe of the other potentates come near him. His cousin, of Austro- Hungary, has $4,650,000 per annum, which is only about the dividend on $50.000,000 of New York Central, These arethe rich monarchs outside of America. Queen Victoria has only £385,000, plus some £40,000 from the Duchy of Lancaster and her savings. But she has control of only a part of this. The law leaves ‘her free to spend only the priyy ~purse_ allow- ance oft £60,000, the surplus, some £40,0v0 and ithe revenues of the Duchy of Lancaster, in all say £700,000. As for the kings in Europe, they would not be : CONSIDERED RICH ENOUGH to go into our best society. The King of Den- mark has married his daughters off very well. put le is not allawed totake morethan $275,000 of his subjects’ money. He could not afford a $250,- 000 yacht. The King of Greece (he is a real king toc,) has only $260,000, and he does not make all of this out of his subjects. The guaranteeing hee pay bim $60,000 a year to Keep him from leeding the common people of Greece too heavily. Some of the big Kings have very small incomes. The King of Saxony has three-quarters of a mil- lion, the Great Emperor of Germany draws his pay as King of Prussia, and has only_a million and a quarter. The King of Sweden and Norway, who is a double-barrelled monarch, so to speak, sitting on two thrones, only gets half a million out of both his subject countries. When our Amert- can Kings think of the : BEGGARLY POVERTY of these royal cousins of theirs, it must make them: feel asif they ought to do something for them, make a fresh issue of stock, enforce a dividend or something of the kind, to keep the wolffrom the palace door. We are sometimes lost in wonder at the exactions and tyrannies of our American kings, but when we come to look at these families,to take into ac- count the absolute power they wield, we can un- derstand a Gould or a Vanderbilt exclaiming with Warren Hastings, “My God,I am astonished at my own moderation.” Itistrue that they have very largely taken control of business ana poli- tics and mest of public and private interests, but instead of complaining we are dispused to thank them for not having taken everything, But they have been at their trade only twenty years. They have certainly gone well for so shortatime. Itis alarming to think what the result wul be if they ain as much in the next twenty years as they fave done in the last twenty. OILY SYMPATHY. Dr. Norvin Green, the Philanthropist, Gives Vent to Touching Language. By Telegraph tothe Post-Dispatch. NEw YORK, August 22.—The World to-day has the following: The return from Europe of Dr. Norvin Green, the President of the Western Union Telegraph Company, gives us the satisfac- tion of feeling that we have once more a real philanthropist among us. Other directors of the | Telegraph Company have tried to make the pub- lic believe that they were philanthropic, but the good man, the truly good man of the board is good Dr. Green.

The music was commendable, the orchestra ample and execellent,and the chorus was large and fairly efficient. The scenery was sufficiently impressive, but the costumes and other minor ap- pliances of the stage, and the stage drill, were somewhat deficient. As for invention, the score contains several numbers which the most cap- tious critic must admire. The opentog chorus of priests, and the cohtrastof a peddlers’ chorus following Zenobia’s aria at the beginning of the second act, and the exquisite “Siumber Song” which precedes At; the finale of that act; the quartette in the third act; Zenobia’s song in the fourth act, with the pathetic return of the “Slum- ber Song”’ as an accompaniment; the fine “Ode to immortality” and its treatment, and the finale of the opera, all require sincere commendation. Miss Dora Henninger was an excellent Zenobia, The mivor female parts afforded only small scope, but were sufficiently weil done. Connell’s figure and voice were excellently suited in Zapdas.

The Young Lady’s Disappearance Still a Mystery. Col. Churchill’s Adventure with a Crank This Morning — Various Theories Ad- vanced—The Detectives All at Sea—A Rumor that She was Found. Mary Churchill. The avove is a very good copy of a photograph of Miss Mary Churchill, the young lady who so mysteriously disappeared from her home, 2737 Morgan street, last Sunday evening. The photo- graph, which is by Guerin, was taken some six months ago, ard is considered a faithful likeness. The description of the girl, as given the police, is as follows: “About 5 feet 3 inches in height, straight and well developed, with light brown hair and grayish biueeyes, oval face, regular fea- tures and hair which she often wears banged.” This description can be supplemented by the Statement that she is 17 years of age, of round but graceful form, and bmght, in- telligent expression. She is said to have an uncommonly fine mind,is a brilliant pianiste, and while having no decided ttalent is quite versatile. Her complexion is white, with little or no color in the cheek, her teeth are even and pretty. her features are large and her should- ers very square. Neither eyebrows nor eyelashes are well defined. She wearsa No. 3 shoe and a No. 6 glove. She is said to have a lovely dispo- sition, and, far from being gay, was always mod- est and retiring. Her company was always chos- en for her and she hada limitea acqu4intance only with gentlemen. She was nota society girl, and her only amnsement appears to have been an occasional visit to the theater. To-Day’s Developments. Up to noon to-day Col. Churchill, Mary Church- ill’s father, had heard nothing which would give him aay definite knowledge as to what had be- come of her. ..Beyond the bare facts that she dis- appeared Sunday evening about 7 o’clock, that she left the house by way of the alley bareheaded and in a light polka-do. dress, and that she was seen on Lucas avenue apparently excited and looking for some one, the family and the detectives have nothing to predi- cate an dea of the girl’s whereabouts. There is absolutely no clew to trace the steps of the missing one. The police have been instructed to keep asharp lookout for her, and the detect- ives are supposed to be working up the case. It is directly in the hands of Detective Hugh 0’ Neill. That gentleman was at the Four Courts this morn- ing waiting for instructions from hi$ chief. He said hehad heard nothing new about case, and did not know what he would do al . dlur- ing the day. At the Churchill residenc. vii Mor- an street little or no information could e had. Col. Churchill said he _ had heard nothing at all that could be considered definite. Mrs. Churchill is still ina state of complete nervous prostration, the shock ofthe disappearance having had a very sad ef- fectupon her. The neighbors are very Kind in their efforts to smooth the trouble over. This morning a rather singular event occurred. A man of intelligent appearance called upon Col. Chuarechili at the house, and asked if he was ad- dressing the father of Mary Churehill, “Vou are,” said Col. Ohurchill. “Well, sir,” said the stranger, “I have some very important, but very distressing news to com- mubicate,” “What is it?” asked Col, Churchill quickly. “JT am sorry toinform you, sir, that your daught- er has been murdered.” » “Where, and how was it done?” ‘Her throat,” continued the stranger, “has been cut 1rom ear.to ear, and if you will come with me 1 will show you where her body lies.” “Who are you?” asked the Colonel, as a thought of blackmail struck him. “— am a private detective, been working on this for money, but for reputation. I do not wavt to get any money from you. I simp- ly want toshow peopie bere that I am a detective. If you will take two friends with you I will show you where the deed Was done and the body of the and I have case, not rl.” Col. Churchill Immediately asked Mr. Farqu- harson, who was in the house, to accompany him and ran across the street for Mr. Eno,and secured his company. Accompanying the stranger the gentiemen proceeded down Morgan street to Beaumont, and then north on Beaumont, Stop- ping at a house on the street the stranger said, or- atorically: “We stand upon the very ground wherein the body may be found. If te will but with me now stay, rh show you all the place she lay, and if I had a little time I'd tell the story all in rhyme,” The gentlemen looked at each other, and with- out any comment on the matter each concluded that THE MAN WAS INSANE, The stranger turned to Col. Churchill, and told him that he must dismiss the other men before the body could be shown him, saying that the men were not friendly to him; that he could look through their eyes into their brains and see what was oing on in them. , . “See here,” said Mr. Farquharson, “this mau is acrank.”’ A policeman was called, the hoodlum wagon rung upandthe man wastaken charge of. He made a strong resistance, and fought every- bodv in the wagon. Atthe Third District Station where he was taken ne said he was a Bohemian, a bricklayer by trade. Letters taken from his cket were addressed to members of the Church- il family, ana when opened were found to con- tain nothing but bad rhyme. One was to the ef- fect thathe was the greatest detective in the world, Otherwise Col: Churchill had a quiet morning. His eves showed want of sleep, but bis demegnor was cheerful. “I have formed no idea at all,” said he, “of where Mary is or what has become of her. She must be out of the city, or she woutd let us know about her disappearance. lam sure she is not in the city.” é “What truth is there in the rumor that she was e struck?” , None whatever. She was not any more stage struck than apy young girl who attends theaters irl at some time or another wants to be an but Mary was not particularly given that 4 She used to talk about the beauty and fame ary Anderson, but Lalways laughed at ber. ‘friend of hers at the Staunton, V ote her the ee this month a oe stage, asking debut, and tell- Ww e. _—s a naction ; at should | all the toad ng ear ipd Mil thins sort of severe except on certain points, such as the com- pany she should keep.” “And she had no lover or sweetheart?” ‘None that we Know or bave heard of.” “How often did she go to the theater?” “Not often. Once in a while toa matinee and oocasionally to Uhrig’s Cave. I never allowed her to go except with ourselves or some family.” Mr. Farquharson, an intimate friend of the family, told the reporter that Miss Churchill was to accompany his wife to the Pickwick Monday night. Mr. Poindexter said the young lady was nota vocalist, bat was an accomplished musician. A NUMBER OF THE YOUNG LADIES in the vicinity were questioned about Miss Churchill’s habits. They were unanimous in the statement that the young lady was a sweet, good girl, with not the least inclination wild and no partiality for -male society. She kept company with no one except a few of the girls in the neigh- borhood. They could not give the slightest idea as to the cause of the young lady's disappearance, and said they were completely mystified. They never knew of her having a sweet- heart, and one of tne ladies questioned said she had heard Mary say she would like to be an actress, but that as.she knew she never could be a good one she would not take any steps toward going on the stage. Detective O’ Neill has not made any headway in the case to mention. There appears to be an apathy among the detectives, ana really no active search for the girl is going on. Several of the detectives said this morning they were not particularly interested in the case. No reward has been offered yet, but it is likely one will be. A RUMOR that the young lady had been found at 1422 Franklin avenue caused a flurry this afternoon, but an investigation proved thatthe rumor was anidie one. The police at the Third District knew nothing of it, and neither at 1422 Franklia avenue or at 1622, norin the vicinity could any- thing be learned to corroborate the rumor. THE NEW NOMINATIONS. Mayor Ewing Sends Five More Names to the Council. Atthe Council meeting last night President Parker was in the chair, and Messrs. Cummings, Devoy, Haines, Scudder, Temple. Vastine, Zelle and Ziegenhein were present. The bond of Mar- ketmaster Weigand was approved, and the ap- pointment of Cornelius McBride for Judge of the First District Police Court was rejected. Justice Von Gerichten, nominated for Judge of the Caron- delet Police Court, was favorably reported by the Committee on Police and unanimously confirmed. The following new appointments were submitted by the Mayor: Harbor and Wharf Commissioner, Jonn Alt; Park Commissioner, Stanley Waterloo; Sewer Commissioner, Robert E. Mc ath; Street Commissioner, John W. Turner; Water Commis- sioner, Thos, J. Whitman. Alt was a member of the old County Court. Waterloo is at present night editor of the Globe- Democrat. McMath isa civil engineer and was foimerly connected with the Sewer Department. Turner and Whitman are the present incumbents of the offices for which they are now named. After receiving the nominations and referring them to the proper committees the Council ad- journed. THE MAYOR EXPLAINS. The Mayor being questioned in regard to the new appointments said he had studied long upon the umportant nomination of the Board of Public Improvements; he had nominated four of them previously, leaving the Harbor and Wharf De- partment out of his list. He was cognizant that certain influences were antagonizing Gen. Turner in the Street Department, but he considered hima man of capacity and integrity, and as street recon- struction was in active progress it would be most unwise, even if such thing was thought of, te make any change in that department. @ would say, however, that he had not thought of any other name for the position. “Mr. Alt,” said -the ate a “isan old citizen of the German elemeat, highiy honored in the past as County Judge and considered eminently fit for Harbor Commissioner.” “Stanley Waterloo needs no _ indorsement among the people of St. Louis. Having long been connected with the yeeee of the city he had shown his thorough capacity for executive ability in the performance of his duties, and he had no hesita- tion in proposing his name for Park Commis- sioner.’ Of Mr. McMath he would say he had been long connected with the ississippi River Commission, and was splendidly in- dorsed as an engineer of undoubted ability and a man of unexceptionable character. “The law,” he said, “requires that the water commissioner shall be a civil engineer of acknowl- edged ability. Mr. Whitman has shown himseif capable of filling the bill in that respect. The question of the extension of the Water-works is one of infinite importance to the people of St. Louis. It effects every one from highest to low- est, and after weighing well the situation, I have found Whitman the right man for the position te which I have nominated him.” MAJ. WEIGEL, who was on the first slate, said he had no intima- tion that the ne ge had changed his mind in re- = to him until he read the Council report to- ay. He could not explain the change of heart soe suddenly revealed by the executive, and did not know whether Waterloo would be confirmed or not. Wm. K. Patrick and H.C. Meyers nad also been applicants for the place. The general impression amon that all the appointments sent in be confirmed. politicians is night will Billiard Tournament.

The citizen who comes to find what has been done with his re- ported burglary 1s often met with an array otf amazed faces whose owners never heard of the burglary. Notwithstanding the report of the ae- tective chumps to the contrary, the town is over- ran with burelars. A few weeks agoa gang vis- ited seven houses on Leonard ayenue in one night, wud during the same week went through from house on Locust and Eléventh streets. In each of these raids the gang nee great determina- tion, not stopping to assault those who attempted to hinder their progress. During the present week several houses in the vicinity of Chouteau avenue and Thirteenth were visited, and a few evenings ago a gentleman chased one through his second story window at an early hour in the morning, at Thirteenth street and Cuouteau avenue. During the nicht before last burglars entered the residence of Fred Moiiennoff on Morganford road -and Penusyivanin avenue and wenttoa reom eecupied by John Schnaider and John Spangler, two hired men. After going through the men’s clothes and securing $15 they attempted to break open a trunk, and while thus engaged awoke Selhpaider who called to them. One of the intruders drew a revolver from his pocket and fired at the man, the ball striking him in the thigh and inflicting a very ugly wound. A teow boursiater Mr. John Tennis’ residence on the Wilmington road, hear Pennsylvania avenue, Was ransacked evidently by a gang of more than three, ( On the same night Mr. Wm.

May Chicago, September wheat a large this market from various country points in the West, and it, is expected that receipts will be large by hext month.—aA letter from E. M. Hutcninson of the Mersey Rice and Flour Mills, pee England, says: “Harvesting has made considerable progress on the continent, but re- ports altogether are unfavorable, es cially from france. In the Northwest the crop has been ma turing very slowly and the harvest bas been fur- liable sources make out thetotal French crop to 10,000,000 quarters less than last year, when she was alargeimporter. In Germany the prospect is not good, and the latest reports from Austria and Hungary state that the exports during the coming season will bé very small. From Russia the reports are not so favorable as they have been, owing to incessant rain in the North, but from Odessa and the Suuth fair average crops of good may are expected. India is re- ported to have a good crop, but we caunot or large shipments for a month, owing to the destruction of railway communica- tions by floods. With regard to our own crop the Weather has been fairly favorable. We had some wet, cold days about ten days ago, but the weather is now all that could be desired. In the extreme south wheat cutting has commenced, but in this neighborhood at least three weeks of fine weather must e!apse.”,——Telegraph advices from Chicago were that a cold wave was on its way from the West. asm om pe and dull markets continued to mark speculation in grain. Very few orders were here, hy + more on account of corn futures were here than have been the case lately, and the local speculator was as shy of trading as he has been for a month past. There was a decline in wheat at the opening and for some time it ruled weak. Cables were dull and easier; other mar- Kets in this country lower and reported weak and receipts continued free. After the early call a stronger feeling ana better demand devel- oped, as Chicago stiffened up, probably through sympathy with the advance in corn, but presently that market declined again and the home market at. ouce weakened and sellers came to the front once more, s0 that prices declined and the close was %@5, below yes- eae Si latest rate. Corn started in weak and so ull that it looked as though the market would be a nominal one, but ere long a report was received of a cold Wave coming from the West, and the fear of injury resulting to the crop set the shorts to buying, and there was a stiff advance here and elsewhere. - But this cold wave must have got side-tracked, for its influence was subsequently lost and markets weakened off, closing here at about the opening rates, with August % higher, September 44 lower and October and year the same as atciose of yesterday. Oats were very dull, and early were weak, but they stiffened up slightly through sympathy with corn and strengthened by the advance in casb,but the highest prices were not maintained, though the close was firm. Cash grades of wheat showed but slight changes in value, No. 2 rea declining a frac- tion. Shorts were the priveipal buyers of that grade, and shippers got nearly all the others, a little No, 2and No. 3 red selling to millers. Cash No. 2 mixed corn improved 44.@14¢c, and was want- ed for shipment; rejected also advanced and was quick sale to order buyers: No. 2 white mixed was unchanged. Cash oats sold nigher, but at the top rates buyers fought rather shy. W heat—Keceipts 20,076 sks, 61,800 bu.

The millions extracted from the tax- payers for this. purpose came chiefly from levies on real estate and the personal prop- erty of the poor, During the recent strike of the telegraph operators, the Western Union monopoly promptly notified the Mayor of New York City that the company would hold the city responsible for all damages to the wires and other property of the company from riotous demonstrations on the part of the strikers or their sympathizers. This is the sort of protection these watered stock monopolies demand and receive. Do they, as tax-payers, contribute anything like a fair shareof the cost of such protection? They tyrannize, as only monopolies can, over the labor they employ, and when riotous strikes oceur, who pays the damages? Itis notorious that they are nowhere taxed ac- cording to their actual wealth as the aver- age citizen is. They pay really nothing for their franchises or rights of way, which impart to their other property all its money- making value They water their stock to several times the cost of the plant, bond the latter foras much more, and then, while levying monopoly tolls on the public to pay full dividends on watered stock and interest on debt, they escape with an assessment ridiculously smal! when compared with their own valuation of their property or what It annually yields in money. The records of this State show street railways assessed and taxed at certain valuations, while the own- ers thereof were swearing on the witness stand in court that the property was earning big dividends on a valuation of ten times the amount, and that they valued it accordingly. The railroads of California hold 12,000,000 acres, or one-fourth of the land in that State, entirely exempt from taxation, and yet the Central Pacific, which is valued by its owners at $140,000,000 and which yields a net profit of $10,000,000 annually, is now in tion of State taxes on an assessed valuation of $15,000,000. Cases of this kind show that we must adopt a new process of taxing this kind of property, if we propose to make it paya fair share of the cost of its own protection, The success with which the Standard Oil monopoly bas escaped State taxation, while operating the most gigantic and abominable system of robbery that was ever inflicted on a country, is enough of itself to demonstrate the necessity for a Federal income tax of the most stringent, inquisitorial and cwercive character. Unless all the States should adopt it, a State income tax might prove u difficult and dangerous thing to handle. But a Federal income tax of general application is absolutely necessary to impose upon corporations and other tax-dodgers a {fair Share of the cost of government, The complaint is universal, and the fact is notorious that the great bulk of the personal property which does not belong to the poor or to the citizen of average means, escapes taxation. Poor's Railroad Manual puts the share cap- ital of our railroads at $3,456,078,196, their funded debts at $3,184,415,201, their gross earnings at $770,356,716, and their net earnings ut $310,682,877. This enormous mass of productive personal property, yielding a net income equai to the an- nual expenditure of the Federal Government, contributes nothing to its support and makes practically no show atallin State taxation. In the three. years preceding 1883 we com- pleted 28,554 miles of new road at a cost of $900,000,000, or $30,000 a mile. This is now papered with securities amounting to $2,023,- 646,842, or about $70,000 per mile. While the public will be taxed by the corporations to pay income on this watered valuation and by the Government to protect the property, we shail lookin yain for the presence of these new securities in our lists of taxable property. They will contribute nothing to the relief of the working man, the farmer, and small property holder from taxation till they are compelled to do so by an income tax. A A LT SE ES SRA GSR RNS THE editor of the Post-DIsPATCH courte- ously acknowledges the receipt of a copy’ of the London Daily News, bearing date of Ju- ly 4th, containing an editorial carefully marked, referring to the banquet tendered Mr. Henry IRVING, on which occasion sub- sequently Chief Justice CoLerineg, a half dozen Lords and a number of distinguished snobs, including JAMES RusseELL Lowe.u, sat down to table with an humble actor. Mr. Irvine is undoubtedly a man of genius. The position which he holds on the English stage is an evidence of that fact and it was not necessary for him to have the indorse- ment of a swell banquet in Lopdon in order to secure an introduction to the American people. Mr. IRVING was proudly compli- mented when the nobility of England placed their shins under his table by way of a gra- cious advertisement, but he should display modesty in referring to it. -The poet BuRNs informed an individual on one oc- casion, who was boasting of the social stand- ing of his dinner-table friends, that the in- sect known as the pediculus capitis, did not change its identity by merely promenading on the curl of a Queen.

Valleys of Ge- henna, canopied with steaming clouds of va- por, and bringing to unaccustomed lips the words, “The smoke of their torment ascend- eth forever and ever; blasts from suiphur- ous caves, and bursts of scalding water from abyssmal pools; mountains of yellow brim- stone; vast caldrons of hot liquid mud, bub- bling like the witches’ gruel, “thick and slab ;” clefts in the earth, revealing a solid core of subterranean fire so near that cigars are lighted there; yawning chasins and inert volcanic craters, looking as though they led “to hell or anywhere’’—such portents even the most hardened editorial perceptions might notignere. Whata field for the im- aginative facuities of Brother TALMAGE, Brother JASPER, Brother BRECHER, or Brother Swing, in treating the Theological Aspects of the Yellowstone. acerca ood Some enterprising beer-jerkers at St. Jo- seph have undertaken to evade the Sunday law of Missouri by selling the foaming fluid on a barge anchored out in the river in front of the city, They had legal advice that Mis- souri jurisdiction did not extend to a vessel afloat in the river, unless its decks were con- nected with the shore by a continuous gang- plank. So they constructed a footway from the shore to the boat, but with gaps in it, over which the visitor could easily step, They did arushing Sunday business, defying the laws of Missouri and looking for trouble from the Kansas side only. But the County Attorney of Buchanan, claiming that Mis- souri’s criminal jurisdiction extends to the center of the channel between this State and Kansas, had them arrested. It will proba- bly be held that the crew engaged in sailing the schooners of King Gambrinus on the river are little better than pirates. No mat- ter how hot and dry the weather is, St, Jo- seph people must learn to quench their thirst with private whisky on Sundays in the orth- odox Missouri style. WALKING among the theatrical people has commenced quite early this season. The “George Edgar Combination,” a New York aggregation of theatrical talent, em- bracing Mr. EnGar of the New York Cot- ton Exchange, SARA JEWEIT, EBEN PLYMPTON and other histrionic people, is re- ported tobe stranded in Chica go with the breakers rolling and a heavy financial! fog off shore. The company started out wilh a grand flourish of trumpets, It was an- nounced for months that EpGAk would have the backing of a wealthy New York syndi- cate. But it was onlya “snap” after all. It expected, like many other organizations of a theatrical character, to pick up money enough in Chicago the first two weeks to meet current expenses and keep on the road. The hot weather made bad business, the mythical wealthy capitalists in the rear neglected to open their pocket-books, and so the big balloon collapsed, And all the windy advertising, so skillfully devised by Maze Epwanps, is lost to the world. —_—_—_—_— Mr. CHAPHE, the engineer in charge of the machinery at the city Water Works, has drawn a large amount of pay from the city for doing a small amount ofework. We pre- sume that tax-payers have aright to know whether he attends to his business or not. If he is an honest man he need not object to having information to that effect put in cir- culation in this community. The quickest way to ascertain the facts is to call for an investigation at the hands of the Municipal Assembly. A $50,000 libel suit necessarily moves slowly, and the filing ofa suit of that description doesn’t signify anything. Some- times it means a big “bluff.” Upon the whole we think the House of Delegates should ap- point a special committee to investigate the charges which have been officially made | against Mr. CHAPHE, and which are now in the possession of that body. If an investi- gation were thoroughly pushed it would save the trouble and expense of deposi- tions in the great libel suit against the Post- DISPATCH, perhaps. Tue foreign diplomatic ducks in Washing- ton are a scandalous set, it seems. The Bra- zilian Charge d’ Affaires recently illuminated the town with a tropica! drunk, and his bad behavior has set the newspapers to dishing up the scandals of the various legations. The average attache of a diplomatic body in this country is generally what the old actor termed a “blaze roo.” If he has scandalized himself sufficiently in European diplomatic circles to create a bad smell when his name is mentioned he is sent to this country, where he is certain to have nothing to doand where he is not likely to attract much attention. Being exempt from common arrest and hav- ing nothing to do but get drunk and minister to his own desires, the diplomatic dangler be- comes a very demoralizing element of Wash- ington society. Our State Department should makeit a rule to demand the recall of every member of a foreign legation who makes @ blackguard of himself under pre- tense of being a gentleman, —_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_ ENGLISH society was disturbed a short time ago by the marriage of young Lord GARBMOYLE to a Miss FINNEY, a plebeian young lady witha pretty face, who had been playing with considerable success on the stage of the Savoy Theater, London, under the name of Fortescue. Earl Catnns, the father of the “mashed” Lord, gave his con- sent to the marriage, and nobility felt that it had been stabbed in the back by one of its own trusted members. Miss Frvxey’s father being a common coal merchant, it can readily be seen that the selection made by Lord GARMOYLE was a blow at he b Saag daughter of a real estate agent, and indigna- tion in the upper circles of society is not quite so keen as it was a month ago, I cn ail Over powerful contemporary, the 5t. Joseph Gazette, mildly protests that it has no disposition to read unorthodox Demo- cratic newspapers out of the party. It says: This newspaper bas never aspired to be any- thing higher than a treadie in the Democratic church, the duty of a treadle being to keep the dogs from fighting, and to kiek eut every beggar who would interrupt divine service. When Major Epwarps returns from Gal- latin, where he is looking after the interests of FRANK JAMES, We shall call on him to ex- plain what is meant by a treadle in a church, When was the office created, and by whose authority does the treadle presume to stop dog fights? Perhaps our contemporary only wauts to be an old-fashioned beadle, es a THE recent failure of the Water-works to supply the city with the water for which the eity is promptly and severely taxed in yarious ways, has at last roused the Board of Public Incubus to action. The distinguished Scien- tists, FLap, Wurman and TURNER, have appointed themselves a special committee to devise plans for a general extension of the Water-works. The fact that the city is growing has been made apparent to the Scientists. It will take a couple of years to prepare the plans, no doubt, and from three to five years to complete the improvements. Meanwhile the Scientists wii! keep right on drawing pay and the city can quit drawing water when it needs it the most. RR ee SE ae Re nn NR RR RT ee ee ee eeewegess aap-ee? Tuts is the sort of thing that is supposed to add to the glory and dignity and prosperi- ty of the developing State of Missouri: MEXICO, Mo., August 21.—Hamilton Hall, 4 druggist, was arrested to-day at theinstance of Prosecuting Attorney Thomas B, Buckner, charged with violating the Sunday law, in that on the 19th day of August he did sell one cigar and one glass of soda water and also intoxicating liquor without a prescription from a practicing physician.

A WINNEBAGO maiden, known in McGregor, Minn., as Agnes, went over to that town from the Wisconsin side, with other members of her tribe, recently, in @ skiff, and, being detained in her shopping tour, she was mortified on going to the river bank to find that her friends had taken the skiff and gone home. Nothing daunted, however, she was not to be stopped by a trifle, and, taking off her raiment, she pinned it in a bundle to her head and then swam the Mississippi River to her camp.

THE PEOPLE'S FORUM. Where the Readers of the Post-Dispatch Get a Hearing. St. Lovis, August 21, 1383, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The article in your columns last evening, “Manette as Seen by an Amateur,” was in the opinion of anumber of your readers, strikingly ust to the merits of Prof, Robyn’s composition, ‘he laughabie blunder in the “Repub” of Tues- day morning, in whose articie on the opera their critic (?) designated the young Professor as merely the ‘leader of ihe orchestra,” and saying, “considering that it was his first attempt he did very well”—was also shown up. To the many who are acquainted with Robyn’s merits and ex- perience asa leader, nothing could wave been more inappropriate. As forthe opera itself, its one salient point of criticism is that it is too long, and that being said, little or nothing is left b way of condemnation, I would take issue with the opinion that “tbe female chorus” was in apy way below that standard of excellence maintained in the whole performance, If there was a fault it was thatthe altos were tbo strong, one or two of the young ladies in that part possessing voices entirely above the average in any chorus ever seen in St. Louis. Where all did well, it were in- vidious to praise my single performer, but | must opeak of the smoothness of a first nizht’s work, the thorough drilling, especially displayed by the chorus, the absence of “hitches,” the absolute knowledge of their = possessed by all, and last, by vo means least, the paces pretty appearance of Misses Fritch and Page, in their contrasted styles and costumes.

P.-D.} Judge Black at Home, From the Phila de!phia Times, Ofallour vistinguished men, whether Penn- sylvanians by birth or adoption, Judge Black was the greatest in intellectual power of either the present or any past generation. Of his contem- poraries, only two approached him in the gran- deur of either legal or political aisputatio:, and they will be readily recalled while the names of Thaddeus Stevens ana William M. Meredith are green in the memory and pride of Pennsylvania, Asa jurist he wasthe superior of both Stevens and Meredith; as a disputant he was unrivaled by either; as a statesman be lacked the skill aud at- tributes of leadership possessed by Stevens and the profound discretion of Meredith; but. taken in all, be was the greatest, grandest _and noblest of Pennsylvania’s sons. Others have achieved more of which the world iakes note, but none have been greater in all the great attributes of public and private character. Judge Biack was not a politician ip any sense oftheterm. He loved politics; he loved his country, its Institu- tions, its honor and its laws. He was partisan, and often prejudiced as a partisan, as are most of the ablest men of every land; but whatever of errors can be charged to him as his share of the common infirmities of man, were committed in the unblemished integrity that made his whole life Justrous.

I think it argues that he doesn’y pow anything about his business.” “ANOTHER THING } would like to say,” the plumber continued, "is this: There bas been a great deal of talk about the recent shortage ol Water, aud several attempts have been made to soive the difficulty. The cause of the troubie has been attributed to de- ficiency of machinery, but I have another explan- ation. You know that Whitman is death on inch pipe; he wants 6Inuch pipe laid everywhere and nothme but 6ineh ye © Weil, the friction in small piping of this kind for / long distances is so great that it is impossible to get a good stream through it. Suppose you have an one-iuch pipe running out forty feet from a maip,.and rigit along side of it another one-inch pipe ruvning 4.000 feet. The forty-toot pipe will give oul a good stream when the cock is turned on, but the 4.000-foot pipe will net yield more than amere dribbic. The water hus so much surtace 10 contend wiil—that is, the fi.ction is so great— thata full stream is impossible, Ap illustration , of the errorof Whitman’s method is had in the six-iuech pipe recentiy put in on the St. Charles Rock Road. as far as the race track and the Christian Brothers’ property. The source of surply. 1s had from the ten-inch inain at Cass avenue aud Grand—Cav- anagh’s corner; thenee an eight-inch pipe runs to Goode avenue, two blocks west; it then branches north te Boston street, along which a six-inch pipe rnns four blocks west, and then > along the Rock Ruad fora distance of three es. THIS SIZE OF PIPING istoo small. Ina yearor two it will have to be taken Out and new and larger pipe put ia its place. If a fire-engine is stationed at the upper end of the Rock Road piping it would not get one fourth ofa stream.

The art is an oid one revived. It was Known to Marcus Aure- lius Severinus in 1645, who.jhowever,kept the proc- essa secret,jandthe first published account of the method of preparing plant-skeletons was by the Duteb naturalist, Frederick Ruysch, In 186i, Parrish of Philadelphia wrote a littie work on the subject. The art then became very fashionable in the East, and at present a number of young ladies in the western part of the alty have beautitul par- lor ornaments, the work of their own hands. In selecting material eare sheuld be taken to gather leaves that are fully formed and free from biemish, The puncture of an iuseet will render the leaf unfit for use. The leaves of herbs must not be gathered as they are soit and flabby and lack the ligneous veins that constitute tbe skeleton leaf. The leaves of all the hardy de- iduous trees and shrubs make good materials. vergreens, Vines and creepers may also be used and the seed-vessels and ealysus of various plants are suitable for the work. Having selected the leaves the next step !s to procure a suitable ves- sel for their maceration, Any utensil of wood or earthenware that will hold water wil) do, THE SPECIMENS are to be covered with boiling water and to be held in place with suitable pieces of glass. The vesseLis then set away in some warm situation for four or five weeks, when, by the action of de- composing,fermentation promoted by warmth and moisture, the pulpy matter of the leaf will be loosened so that it can separated from the fibrous skeleton and be preserved unimpaired. Some of the leaves, like ivy and holly, after maceration, will part with their tough skin in layers, so as to expose the skeleton cov- ered with a thin membrane, which may be readily washed off. Maples, lindens, and others require different treatment. Their epidermis is so thin and slight that it is necessary to place the decayea leaf on a plate or pane of glass and with a soft tooth brush. clean off the surface, If necessary, a leaf may be returned to the macerating vessel to complete the softening process. Leaves of very delicate texture may be cleaned by washing them under water between the fingers. Some skeletons, like the lemon and japonica, when obtained in perfect condition, show a double structure as though twe perfect leaves had grown together at the edges. “Oak leaves, fromthe amountof tannin that they contain, resist maceration fora long time. They may be skeletonized by first dryiug and browning them witha hot sadiron, and then tap- ping over the surface with aclothes brush. If conducted with skill this process succeeds, but will not givea skeleton thatcan be beached thoroughly, Boiling with soap is another method that is sometimes very successful. The macera- tion process is, though siow, the best method. To bleach the specimens asolution of chloride of lime in water may be used in the proportion of three ounces of the Jime toa pintof water. The bleaching may done in a glass or queeusware vessel and occupies about | nationai character.

Dr. James Nidelet hela a post mortem examination on Melse}’s body at noon to-day, During the past few days the number of sudden and violent deaths requiring Coroner in wanttee tion has increastd to an alarming extent. If the weather had been hotter and the usual comple- ment of deaths from over-healing had been added tothe number of accidental and suicidal deaths, half a dozen coroners would be unable to attend the business of that office. To facilitate business for himself and the report- ers Coroner Nidelet daily makes a record of the cases reported to him and those likely te need his attention iu the near future. The docket to-day was alargeone. The list of floaters was headed by Clayton or Clemens Schuette, whose naged body was found in a pond on California avenue, near Gasconade, While bathing in the pondin a heated condition the deceased was probably seized with cramps, and, being alone at the time, was drowned, The body was identified by the de ceased’s aunt, At 7;30 o’clock last eventing a floater found at the foot of Rutger street was given a slab at the Morgue.

Mills laughingly replied that he “earried a razor,” to which Allan replied: “I carry something better than that,” and so saying produced a caliber self- acting revelver. Whilethe two men were exam- ining it in a friendly oa Allan pulled the trigger and, accidentally discharging, the bullet went into Miller’s abdomen. Allan was horrified at the accident, and gave Miller every attention until his removal to the City Hospital, when he him- self was placed under arrest by Sergeant Burke, At noon to-day Miller was in a critical condition at City Hospital, and but the slightest hopes of his recovery entertained. H. Brimhborst stepped on a nail a few days aro, and died yesterday at the City Hospital of lock- jaw.

New YorK, August 22.—The World says: “Un- cle Rufus Hatch gave our British visitors an ‘eye- opener’ wlien he took thetn out to the Dalrymple on the day when harvesting began. The specta- cle of 130 American self-binderg starting into4a 28,000 acre wheat field tocut 600,000 bushels of wheat, most of which will probably help to com- fort British digestion, is someting worth traveling from England to see, and something worth wiifle for an Ameriean to show. The basis of this coun- try’s material greatuess is its cheap land and its unrivaled agricultural] resources. Who- ever understands that may have a _ true conception of what this country is; any one who {ails to understand {it must fail to understand what kind of a country this is which we proudly claim to be the greatest on the earth.” THE 8UN. The Sun says; “There 1s a familiar rule of Jaw which applies to the Dorsey case, Statements which are damaging to a party in a suit, if they are made in his presence or come directly to his knowledge, may be introduced in evidence against him at trial. If he has not denied them or has re- fused to say anything on the subject, tue | be pretty sure to regard the damaginy menis as true. Dorsey, formerly a Re) Seuator of the United States and Secr the Kepublican National Committee, has made his charges in regard to the corruptions of the Garfield campaign with careful explicitness. He gives names, dates, amounts of money paid, and other particulars. The persons implicated do not deny the charges, Even when questioned they refused to reply. People who read and oceasion- aily draw but one inference from this state of things. They conclude that Dorsey has told the trulb.”’ THE TIMES. The Times says: “The Trunk Line Commis- sioner ought to refuse to make any increase in the freight rates on dressed . beef from Chicago unless the advocates of ‘proiective rates’ can adyance some better arguments than any they have yet found. The demand for an increase from cts. per hundred Ibs. to 77 cts., on the ground that certain rgons who are now engag in the profitable basinges of shipping cattle East and slaughtering them here must be protected against the conse- quences of an innovation that would give the con- sumers of the large tern cities cheaper better beef is manifestly unsound aud vicious.

NATURALIZED CHINAMAN, The Law Disregarded ~ 4 the Pennsyl- vania Cour From the Philadelphia rimes. The_pubdlication in the Times of the fact that Frank Dunne, an Americanized and weaithy Chinaman, had ry ng 4 declared his intentionin the office of the Prothonot- ary of the Common Pleas Courts of becom- ing a citizen of the United States has created a wide-spread feeling of interest. Several letters were received at the Pro- thonotary’s .office yesterday aski for further information about Duune, and two or three made inquiries concerning the law on the subject of the naturalization of Chi- namen as interpreted in Pennsylvania. : It is held in some quarters that Mr. Dunne’s desire to become a citizen of this country will have to end with his formal declaration, for the reason that under the law no Mongo- lian cag be naturalized. The original natu- ralization laws, it,is said, extended only to free “white” persons. When an attempt was made by Senator Sumner in 1870 to have the word “‘white” struck out, the objection was nade that this would admit the natural- ization of Chinese. After several amend- ments the clause was amended to read: ‘*That the naturalization laws are hereby ex- tended to aliens of African nativity and to persons of African descent.” It wag still feared that the Chinese might somehow slip in, and in 1876 the strings were pulled tighter and after the word “aliens” in the elause Congress added the phrase, “being free white persons,” so that the whole phrase reads ‘being free white persons and aliensof Afri- can nativity,” aud so on. As Dunne is nei- ther ‘white’ nor of “African nativity or descent,” it is argued that he canuot lawfully be naturalized in the United States, In many States the courts, standing upon the jaw, haye refused to allow Chinamea to be natu- ralized. In this city, however, the law has been in- terpreted in favor of the Chinese. in March of last year Judge Allison created a prece- dent by signing the naturalization papers of Henry Leon, a Christian Chinaman, who had married and settied in this city, His vatural- ization was pubiicly protested against at the time by @ quaint little creature, known as ‘Sharkey’s Kid,” who was for having the law read against the Chinaman, but the court could not see any force in his reason- ing, In the following June Judge Feil, fol- lowing the precedent made by Judge Alli- son, naturalized Harry Lung and C. Mark Tuck, who ha« been living lu this city about seven years, but still retained their queues and the religious belief of their native land. Harry Leon vouched for them and they were sworn without objection from any one. “With these precedents,’ said a prominent lawyer yesterday, ‘‘all the Cil- nese who please to conform to the require- ments of the law may be naturalized here,” Children’s Suits ata Sacrifice.

Ten cen ts charge ABOUT A POODLE, A Battle Royal Between French Rail- way Passengers Male and Female, Paris Despatch te N. ¥. Telegram. A rather unusual trial came up yesterday before the Tribunal Correctionel de Paris. A few days ago a wealthy merchant of Palais- eau, M. Mataquin, accompanied by his wife, entered a first ciass compartment of a train to pass the holidays at Berny. An artist named M. Rosier, with his morganatic part- ner, who, not to disturb the domestic rela- tions established for twenty years, shall be called Mine. Rosier, entered the same com- partment, As soon as the fortifications of Paris were passed Mme. Rosier opened a silver-mounted crocodile skin traveling bag and out jumped a diminutive Havana poodle. The weather being sultry, tiie four woyageurs occupied seats riding next the open windows, The fifth of the voyageurs, however, frisked about everywhere, over the cushions an under the cushions, and not a spot was sacred to it. Mine. Malaquin suddenly be- came pale with fright and exclaimed; “Mad- ame, gardez votre chien sur vous, je vous en prie. lise fourre dans mes jampbes. C’est tres desagreable.” Mme. Rosier retorted, “Qu’est que c’est qu'une femme qui n’aime pas jes chiens; c’est une guenon.” Here the train came to a halt at the station of Berny. The two ladies, both pretty and both dressed in the height of fashion, jumped up simultaneously to open the door of the compartment—Mme. Malaquin to get out and Mme. Rosier to prevent Mme, Maia- quin from making a complaint to the raliway ofticials against the cherished Havana poodle. Hot words, followed by blows of parasols, ensued, ‘The husbands intervened and a veritabie combat was the resu t._ M. Malaquin had his cheeks laid open by the sharp nails of Mme. Rosier and the poodie nad his hind leg broken amid the general debris of Worth bonnets, sunshades, ribbons aud ruffied lacea, The gendarmes interfered and tuok the whole paity in charge, and yesterday each of the voyageurs was fined 200 francs and costs for a breach of the peace, WOMAN AND HER DISEASES Is the title of a large illustrated treatise by Dr. R.

Sale by Candle, From the St. Janes Budget, Sale by candle is a method of auction that was at one time common throughout England and Scotland, and that atili survives in some places north of the Tweed.

Every Friday afternoon in a room in the oid Exchange a judge and his secretary took their seats attended by a crier and a servant dressed in a flame-colored coat, and supplied with a box of tiny candies, each of which is intended to burn for oneminute. Ata given signal a candie is lighted, and the bidding for whatever happens to be on sale begins. At each offer from a would-be-purchaser the burning candle is extinguished and a new one is i ht. d, and the proverty is only dis- osed of when # candie burns out ere a fresh bid bas been announced by the crier, ‘This custom dates from medimval times, and it is said that for 500 years sales have been heid and candies have been burned every Friday without interruption.

When Enoch Arden came home after that memorable and disastrous voyage, which shipwrecked him and his hopes, he crept up the street to his old home, as Tennyson in- forms us, and looked in the window, There he saw Philip Ray and Annie, his wite, and their child, ail seated around the hearth cracking walnuts. The whole bitter truth came upon him with terrible force. Annie, cepposing Enoch to be dead, had married Phillip, so aa to have a home for herself and chiid, and a man about the house in case of tramps. It Wasa sad coming back fur Enoch, and he was mad about it. Not so much because Phillip had married his wife, for there were ig more wives to be had; not because is child had learned to call another man “pa,” though that was a bitter pill, inasmuch as the child looked a littie like Phillip any- ow. Neither of these things worried him half 60 much as ty note that Phillip Was-weating his (Enoch’s) clothes. With a menacing gesture Enoch was just about to dash into the house and annihiiate them, when sed- denly the anger in his counterance was sup- planted bya look of terror and he silunk away aSsilentiy ashe had come. He had augiit sight of Annie’s mother, who, during uvoch’s absence had broken up housekvep- ing and come over to live with her daughter, and had become a uxture there.

John R.Crump &Co,,5th and Market. An Unnecessary Duke, From the New York Times. This endless talk about the debts of the Duke of Teck and his fat wife, Mary, must throw the’‘howling Radicals” of England into a fine rage. And they are not to be blamed for raging, for the Teck section of the reign- ing family is about the most irritating sp:ci- men of royal blood and noble that an etfete monarchy could produce. Why should this fair green earth be bur- dened with a Duke of Teck? Why doesn’t the fellow go and earn his living? Or, if the accumulated stupidity of a long line of heavy Wurtemberg ducal ancestors unfits him for any useful occupation, why can’t he have at least sense enough to die? He and his wife, who is a cousin of the Queen, receive $25,000 a vear from the pub- lic funds, and the Queen suffers thein wo use a couple of her spare palaces. But even with these advantages, the improvident pair are eontinually making a public scandal about their debta. The Duke gambles heavily, and, being adull clod, always loses, of course. Their royal kin have paid up their debts many tlines, but the recent auction sale oi their effects indicates a dispusition to let them shift for themselves in the future.

Old Jeff Miller, the well-known Texas frontiersman and desperado, was inortally wounded by the$Mexican police at Monterey Mexico, when nip ve ae, Ae citizens of that town Wednesday last. e wasat the time on a regular “show~-em-up” drunk, and wag shot in several places before he was con- quered and captured. One of his wounds necessitated the amputation of his right leg, and the operation was too much for him. He uietly Dc away, his only regret being that he died at the bands of “‘greasers.”” The Texas correspondent of the Pihiiadelphia Times telis an interesting love atiair in the life of the old frontiersinan; Jeff Miller was a State ranger years ago, attached toa frontier post-iown subject to attack at any moment from numerous bands of Comanche and Lipau Indians. The town was small, but boasted of its big dance-hail and a great many gamblers and sirens, who made things lively. There wasa bali every night and usualiy one or two rangers were in attendance to preserve the peace, The bright particular star of the Casino wasa wiilowy little blonde, about twenty years old, who rejoiced in the euphonivus name of “St. Louis Sal.” She nad many admirers, and she had not been an inmate of the house twenty-four hours before a man was kilied because of her coquetries, Jeff Miller mani- feasted more than a passing faucy for the curley-headed nymph anu was apt to be jealous when she bestowed her attentions on other men, One night during the progress of a great ball two cowboys became involved in a quarrel over Sal, Pistols were drawn and a duel seemed inminent. The fair cause of the difficulty sereamed with terror and threw her white arms about the neck of one of the men. “Don’t quarrel!” she cried. “Don’t.” The man to whom she was eliuging shook her off roughly, and at the same time dis- charged his pistol, and the man he was facing felldead with a bullet through hia heart, He turned with the smoking pistol in his hand just as a second shot rang out in tie crowded ball room and he, too, staggered and fell, A little round hole above his tem- ve indicated that the tatal bullet hid entered lls brain. He never moved and Jeti Miller walked forward, pistol in hand, and lifted up the frail woman on Whose acc-unt two men had just surrendered their lives, He buve her to the little adobe house in the rear of the Casino where she entertained her admir- ers, and laid her on the bed. With tender care he washed away the biood and chafed her cold wrists until the blood began once more to bound through her veins. She breathed, and with a febie moan opened her eyes. “You are all right now, Sal,” he said, kiss- ing her. “Lay quietawhile.” “Ob, Jeff,” she cried and started up; “it was sv hyrrible. Did he—was anybody killed ?” ‘ney are both dead!”’ was Jeff’s answer. “Sy God!” moaned the wretched woman and covered her face with her hands; “li was ali on my account,” After a little wiile she threw her arms about Jeff’s peck and said: “1 have been bad and wicked, Jetf, and 1 did not realize the luil horrors of wy wretched life until w- night. If you wiil only be kind to me and belp me to henceforth lead an honest life | wili be your slave, Don’t refuse we. Take meaway. I aiu sick of it aii,” ‘There was, perbaps, a shade of sadness in his voice when he answered her. ‘Il do feel sorry for you, Sail,” he said “and Vil help you all 1 can. ‘To-morrow I will take you away.” Society atthe post was much astonished the nextday when it was announced that "st. Louis Sai.” had “retired” from the Casino and had been piaced in a little ‘ioeal”’ on the outskirts of the settlement by Jeff Miiler. ‘lhe relations between the pair were very happy, so far as an outside observer could judge, and if not his wife, Sal was just as,true and faithful to him as though a duzen lezal cereuonies bound them together. One night, during a quarrel in a saloon, a gambler who was adead shot fired at Jeff, aud he would probably have been either killed or badly wounded, but just as the gumbler’s finger pressed the trigger a woman with yellow hair sprang between him and the target, and when the smoke frou iis pis- tol clearea away “St. Louis Sal” lay at his feet ail bathed in blood. She died in his arms afew hours later, and he buried.her uuder a big pecan tree and set up arude stone cross, ou which was_ chiseled the two words: “Little Queen.” He never spoke of her afterwards, but wok to drink again, he having ‘sworn off” at her request and quit- ted the service, Olid Jeff’s later history teemed with tales of fignts and bloodshed, but he was always considered a square man. He always ex- pressed a wish ‘to die with his boots on, and if he did notit was no fault of his.

They watched and waited fiiteen daysand determined to perform their funeral rites. According to their custom 1,200 of them marched and counter-marched around the prostrate budy of their chiet. Then came a sudden pause and fright, for the dead had returned to lite. He spoke with deep feeling, telling his people that be bad beey in a trance; that he had comnuned with the Great Spirit; that his loug service for his people was not euded; he’ was to re- main with them as many years as he had been daysin the happy hunting grounds; he told them that he had served thew for more than forty years without any pecuniary consideration ; his sole aim was to promote their good; he was convinced that inte:nper- ance Was the cause of the exierminatiwon of the tribes who lived in euontact with the white man.
