KEPT IT A SECRET. A Sensational Scene at the Bedside ofa Dying Man. How Nellie Jarvis Concealed the Fact of Her Marriage Until After Her Hus- band’s Death—She Never Lived With Him. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New Yorx, August 4.—In the little village of Mt. Vernon, a week ago yesterday, an event Occurred that created a great sensation. A romantic story had transpired, not far away in New York city, but in the heart of the village itself. Mr. Burr Davis, a very prominent citizen, residing on Fourth avenue, and much admired in his dual ca- pacity of livery-stable keener and undertaker, was one of those whose names circulated among the villagers. Mr. Jarvis, a wealthy jeweler, also residing on Fourth avenue and like wise a gentleman of popularity. was another, Now the people of Mount Vernon had long deen watching a charming attachment which had sprung up between Miss Nellie B. Davis, a pretty girl of 19 summers, and the only daughter of the promi- nent Burr, and Arthur A. Jarvis, described as an “elegant boy’” age, 22 years, and son of the wealthy jeweler. About a year anda half ago this young couple “kept company” and “waited upon one an- other.“ Miss Nellie being the lucky possessor of a papa who had horses and carriages, was able to take Arthur out for drives. She did so frequently and as the villagers saw the couple driving through the leafy avenues of Monnt Vernon, they said, “A marriage must come off soon. A marriage in the quiet little country place would be something totalk about for weeks. But Hymen held himseif from the portals of the Davis and Jarvis families to ail appearance, aud when Ar- thur A. Jarvis,who had been consumptive for a long time, died last Friday, the Mount Vernonites - agined that he PASSED AWAY A YOUNG BACHELOR. Miss Nellie, they said, would grieve for her sweet- heart a month or so. after the manner of her sex. The yg were deceived,and acknowledged them- selves to so when the true story came out. been en- ged. Arthur wasemployed in a jeweiry store in New York City, but his prospects were excellent. Soon after the engagement the young man fell ill of neumonia. aud on his recovery took a severe cold. is consumptive frame could not support these at- tacks, and he was informed by his doctor that he could mot possibly live. He doubted the statement and made a formal proposal Mr. Burr Davis for the hand of his daughter Nellie. Theold gentleman declined. Mr. Jarvis’ health was too feeble. could not allow his daughter to wed a consumptive. Arthur Jarvis grew rapidly worse. He be himself to see that his hopes of life were unjustified. His doctor advised him to go out West, stating that the change of climate might prove beneficial, and the young man hesitated. In the meantime a young ‘cousin from Buffalo came to visit the Davis family last September. At the expiration of her visit she pro to return by way of Albany and asked Nellie Davis to accompany her as far as that town. Miss Davis consented and asked her lover to make a third one of the party. Miss Davis and Jarvis intended to return home by the next boat. On their arrival at Albany on September 3, they found they had five hours tospare before the tfor New York left.“ Nellie.“ said Arthur, ae know I've been or- dered by my doctor to go West. Now, I shall only go on one condition, and that you can determine. Will you do what Lask!“ “Of course, Arthur,“ answered the girl “You must go out West; it is your only chance. I will do anyth ng you ask.” “Well, marry me now, while we're herein Al- bany,”’ he exclaimed. ' NELLIE WAS TOO SURPRISED to answér at once, Then she said that she could not marry him. as her parents had refused their consent. Young Jarvis entreated and threatened by turns. It woul help him to recover, he said, if he knew that he had a wife at home waiting for him. With many misgivings Miss Nellie consented. The couple were married within half an hour from that time at All Saints Cathedral, Albany, by the Rev. Dr. George W. Dean. They returned home immedi- ately.. Yonng Jarvis rece ved a promise from Miss Nellie that she would not breathe a word about their marriage to any soul untti his return from the West, when be hoped to be in good health and in a posi- tion to make their marriage public. He went out West afew days afterward and stayed away for eight months. During his absence Mrs. Arthur, or Miss Nellie, as she was generally known, suffered a martyrdom. She had never disobeyed her rents before, and her secret marfiage, though she and her husband had separated immediately upon their arrival home, preyed upon her mind. She grew thin, nervous and melancholy. Then her husband returned last May in a dying condition, the wreck of his former self. Still he declined to announce their marriage publicly. His wife used to call for him in a carriage and take him for drivesin the day time. Then she would leave him and return home. A short time ago the young m took to his bed and never rose again. His wife at- tended him regular, but on Friday lastit was evi- dent he could not live through the day.

Editor Cowles of Cleveland Com. promises Suits Aggregating $75,000. _ — 1 Mr. Cowles’ Favored Daughter Caused Her Father a Great Deal of Trouble How the Cases Originated. By Telegranh to the Post-Dispatoa, CLEVELAND, .OnI0, August 4.—Three important law suits for damages, aggregating $75,000, are to be settled herein the withdrawal of the suits of Edwin Cowles of the Cleveland Leader, against the Penny Press; Edwin Cowles Against Richard Gil- mour, and Edwin Cowles against Richard Gilmour and Manley Tello of the Catholic University. The individual modestly designated as Richard Gilmour, is the Catholic bishop of the diocese of Cleveland, a Scotchman of great firmness and force of intellect, The suits were an episode in an interesting history. Briefly the story is as follows: Edwin Cowles, editor of the Leader, has for years fought the Catholics in the columns of his paper with such vehemence that he has been called a “crank” on the subject. He had a family of children, including an accomplished daughter named Helen, who went abroad and fell in love with a young Frenchman. She was in love. Some say that her father broke off the match when he discovered that the Frenchman was a Catholic. It is also stated that. feeling that her father had thwarted her hopes of happiness, she stipuiated that he should furnish her $1,200 a year and permit her to live. abroad. At any rate she went away, and he provided for her handsomely, being a most indulgent father, espe- — to this, his favorite child. On her second voy- age opeward she formed a friendship for a Mrs. Mitchell and her daughter. One day while den ounc- ing the Catholics WITH ALL HER FATHER'S FERVOR she learned from them that the Mitchells were Catholics, She was naturally embarrassed, but Mrs. Mitchell said: “Let us dismiss the subject. To her surprise Miss Cowles reverted frequently to it in a spirit of inquiry, and Mrs. Mitchell finally referred her om their arrival at Rome to the Bishop of Arme- dale. She at length expressed a desire to become a Catholic and enter a nunnery. When her father's opposition to the church was learned the Bishop was loath to receive her into the church until she should have had a year's time to reflect on the matter. At any rate she brooked no delay but joined the Catholic Church. She did not, however, me a nun. She confided her secret to A friend in Cieveland, and of course it reached Mr. Cowles. anger was terrible, and he at once hastened to London. where his daughter then was. The Catholics say that in his endeavor to induce his ter to leave the church his ire was so great Helen for a short time sought an put a treat- ru rsonal violence, Miss Cowles refused to renounce her re- ligion, At length she meta New Jersey gentieman named Pomeroy, who was said to be very wealthy, daz of her marriage to him, received the father had died after disinheriting him. Mrs. Cowles-Pomeroy returned home on visits after her marriage, and was accustomed to go, prior to the Sabbath, tosome tewn out of the city where sbe could attend the Catholic Church without dis- turbing her father. She became an invalid and was very sick inher father’s house. About this time some females of the Catholic Church formed a la- dies’ land league and were threatened with excom- munication by Bishop Gelmour, unless they CEASED TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES WITH IT. Editor Cowles with his old-time vigor, accused the Bishop of curtailing the liberty of conscience of members of his flock, an offered to give place in his columns to a refutation of the charge, if the Bishop could make one. The Bishop wrote and sent to Cowles by his private secre „ Father Houk, a communication which so an Cowles that he kicked Father Houk out of his office, and was fined costs for the assault. He refused to publish the communication, although he had promised to give place in the eader’s columns to the Bishop's defense. Then the Penn anafternoon paper, and the Catholic Universe published the letter. No one was surprised that the communication had incited Cowles to r- sonal violence when it appeared, for the Bishop had nned a most caustic Jetter. calling Cowles a hy crite, in that he, who bewailed the fact that fie bishop had curtailed the liberty of conscience of his rishioners, had persecuted his own daughter.

Cowles at once brought the civil suits above mentioned, as well as one or two criminal actions. The latter, however, were compromised. While Mrs. Cowles-Pomeroy lay sick at her father’s house the Bishop’s lawyers called and took a part of her de tion. A cscene ensued: * lawyer asked the sick woman if she had written some letters to a certain Catholic prelate. She ad- mitted that she had. “Were the statements in these letters correct? asked the lawyer. With her native quick wit the poor woman grasped the importance of that question. She knew that the letters bearin on her stormy interviews with ber father in regard to her religion were in the lawyer's hands, and that her admission of the truth of all the statements in those letters would practically be a great victory for the Bishop and A CRUSHING DEFEAT FOR HER FA who sat pale and angry in the sick room. had a daughter's regard for her father and ho for a compromise of the suits.

What Mrs. Storey has to Say About Trude, Patterson and Dennett. — A Breery Interview With the Wife of the Proprietor of the Times—How Mr. Trude Secured Control of the Paper—An In- teresting Bit of Newspaper History. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. Curtcago, August 2.—The Post- Deren. some days since, contained a statement given by a St. Louis gentleman of the troubles in the Chicago Times office. Since then Mrs. Storey, the wife of the proprietor of the Times, and the lady against whom the fight is being made by Messrs. Trude. Goudy, Patterson and others, has been seen, and, after much persuasion, she told the following story to a Post-Dispaton correspondent: “To put it mildly, she said, “the peculiarities of the Times m have been a fruitful subject of comment in this city for the vee = to state of affairs; they are, and have been for the past year, subjects of open discussion on the street and in commercial circles.“ W the trus story of the present compli- cation!“ By the advice of my friends I some time since decided investig the business and editorial management of the — — Mr. Patterson, the business manager, was .direct- ed to compile a financial statement of its affairs. He asked and was granted proper time to do this, but instead of complying immediately, joined Mr. A. S. Trude in an effort to avert an examination and retain son of the establishment. These two gentlemen called to their aid Mr. W. S. Goudy, whose legal services were found adequate, to the emergency. A trusted mefsenger was dispatched to Indiana and a reiative of Mr. Storey brought on to Chicago and put to the front as an a or for a conservator for Mr. Storey. This gave the ntle- men time the better to pre their plans for re- taining session. They have thus far succeeded, and in the meantime covered their actual motive under the guise of ‘fighting for their heirs.““ “Do you mean to assent that the Times is con- trolled by a ring?” “Ido. This combination or as you call it, is composed of A. S. Trude. the criminal lawyer, A. L. Patterson, the business manager; C. R. ett, the managing editor, and certain others.” MR. TRUDE WAS EMPLOYED some years ago to defend the paper in alibel suit. Since then he has insinuated himself so thoroughi into the office that men in prominent positions in it are entirely under his control. One of the first men to fall into line with Mr. Trude was A. L. Pat- terson, business manager of the Times. Some six or seven years.ago Mr. Storey, prompted by the in- sinuations of Mr. Trude that something was wrong in the Times counting-room,detailed that gentleman to institute an investigation of Mr. Patterson and his management. To quote the words of Mr. Trude, as to the manner in which he investigated Mr. Patter- son: “I quietly walked around the block for several days during the better part of a week, and reported to Mr. Storey that everything wasall right in Mr. Patterson's department. Had I told the truth, I might have gotten Mr. Patterson into trouble.” Mr. Patterson has—or ratherhad until a months ago, when one ofethem quietly moved west —two brothers in the employ of the Times, one of them as book-keeper and the other as city circula- tor; and thethree, as will readily beseen, were thus enabled to control largely the financial affairs of the paper. Mr. Storey, however, not being entirely satisfied with the results of Mr. Trude's investigation of the business manager, and the affairs of his department, about December, 15880, directed a man who had been for many years a trusted employe of his paper to enter upon the work of investigating all departments of the estab- lishment. The receipts were at that time large, but the expenses or leakages were out of all proportion, and the was instructed to make a examination and report back results. After a time he came tothe conclusion few employe that the trouble lay mainly in the counting-room, and so reported manded that the investigati As soon as this employ deposed.

The trio constituted the ring that practically controlled the columns of the Times for years. Any employe who ventured to disre in the first place the suggestions, but later on the or- ders, of Mr. Trude, was peremptorily discharged upon some trumped-· up charge, and so well was this known among professional men, that it was difficult to induce those of recognized abi ity to accept positions upon the staff. There are rings within rings in the 0office of t He- Il mesa ring in the composing-room, a ri in the press-room, a ring on the editorial floor, and, in fact. everywhere throughout the establishment. These internal rings, however, are but flies on the wheel, set in motion by Messrs. Patterson and Trude. As an instance of the general demoralization of the office?

It is Utterly Disregarded by the Re- publican Campsign Managers. Some Interesting Facts Regarding the Attar of Roses—American Methods Com- pared With Those of France. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch, Wasninoron, August 4.—The Civil Service law respecting collections for campaign purposes from government employes seems already to be a dead letter. The collections are going forward about as usual except ina manner somewhat more circum- spect. The letter of the law is being respected while its spirit is being evaded. It has been already announced that the National committee has sent out circulars requesting contributions. This announce- ment has encouraged the State Committee to do the same thing. Circulars have been received here from all the Republican State Committees of Penn- sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and other states requesting contributions from government employes. The National Committee, evidently determined to make its defiance and evasion of the law as prominent as possible, has actually established a headquarters here and a sub-com- mittee on whom government employees may call and pay their subscription tothe campaign fund. The circular of this committee says: The under- signed have been requested by the Republican Na- tional Committee to act as a finance committee for the District of Columbia in collection of funds to be used by the National Committee in the present po- litical campaign. On and after this date we will be prepared to receive ‘and to receipt for such sums as persons may wish to contribute to the cam- paignfund of the Republican party. The rooms of the committee, 1421 New York avenue, will be opened daily from 8:30 tod p. m.“ The circular from the lican Committee asks Pen contribute such sums as to the Civil Service law, it will be or The @ Ohio circular of th similar to that of the Pennsy! it adds that contributions may be in stallments. Circulars ing in quite rap , sa ly indicate a desire and will and it is gratifying.

Some of the employes who consider themselves in a certain semse dependent upon their members prefer to contribute directly to their members.

THE DIONE DISASTER. The particulars of the collision and sinking of the steamer Dione, in the Thames, Saturday night, state that there were a great many pleasure passengers on board the vessel. There was a clear moon last night. The collision occurred about midnight, with the large iron steamer Camden, just uff Gravesend. The Dione's port-side was stove in and the vessel keeled over and sank in two minutes. HEARTRENDING SCENES. Those saved rushed on deck, jumped overboard half dressed, and were rescued by tugs. The scenes were heartrending. The ladies implored the men to save their children. Many women were carrying infants. One mother placed her infant on a floating crate. The crate drifted away, but was found later off Thames Haven, with the infant still alive. The captain ot the Dione was saved, but is badly h - = BOLTON To BE “FIRED.” Samuel Walker, Solicitor-General for Ireland, an- nounced to-day that Earl Spencer, Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, had decided to suspend Crown Solicitor Bolton, against whom serious charges have been made by the press.

Manrsrrities, August 4.—The fact that the swal- lows, which migrated at the outbreak of the pesti- lence, have not yet returned, and that there are no sparrows at all in the city, is adduced as evidence that the atmosphere is still vitiated. This migration of birds has made a deep impression upon the pub- lic, and has led to a demand for the purification of the atmosphere by bonfires. THREE DEATHS THIS PORENOON. Between 9 and 2 o'clock to-day there were three deaths here from cholera. JEROME PROTESTS. Panis, August 4—The Figaro publishes a protest from Prince Jerome against the congress of the two houses meeting at Versailles to-day to revise the constitution. He demands that a constituent as- sembly be convoked. AN EXCITING SCENE, The opening session of the Congress, composed of the two Houses of Parliament, which assembled at Versailles to-day to undertake the revision of the Constitution was exceedingly up- roarious and broke up in great disorder. After ¢ stormy tumult Le Rogers’ proposal to adopt the standing orders of the Assembly of 1871 was agreed to. Both the Right and Left took part in the interruptions. As soon as this matter was disposed of Minister Ferry as- cended the tribune to introduce his scheme of revision. M. Andrieux and others at once protested that Ferry was outof order. He contended the com- mittees ought to be elected first. As Andrieux ascended the tribune the members formed a semi- circle around him and @ scene of wild excitement Tov.on, August There were four deaths from cholera here last night.

Portsmovtn, N. H., August 4—The city is thronged, public and private buildings decorated, and Welcome to our Arctic Heroes” placarded on bunting everywhere, The harbor is filled with crafts laden with people. At11:20,amid considerable en- thusiasm, Commander Schley, Lieutenant Emory and Commander Coffin disembarked. Following them were the other officers of the Greely expe- dition and sailors of the Thetis, Bear and Alert. THEY WERE ENTHUSIASTICALLY GREETED. As they ianded the crowd passed forward to shake their hands. A roar of welcome went up when at 11 o'clock Greely was discovered with his comrades coming toward the landing in the Admiral's barge. Greely was ciothed in white with a slouched hat, and wearing spectacles. As he and his companions alighted all crowded to the front to welcome him. Greely leaned upon the arm of Lieut. Powell and languidly lifted his hat. His every movement indicated weak- ness. His comrades received much attention. All were placed in coaches immediately and driven to the Rockingham Hwuuse, it having been decided they should not appear in the procession. At the hotel the crowd gathered to catch a glimpse of them. Lieut. Greely said to an Associated Press repre- sentative that he felt very well this morning, and he looked it. He expressed himself much moved by the cordiality of his reception. MRS. GREELY JOINED HER HUSBAND atthe hotel At 11:20 the procession began to march, The streets were packed and the crowds greeted the sailors of the relief squadron. The ova- tion continued throughout the entire route. Com- mander Schley, Lieut. Emory and Commander Cof- fin were received with tremendous applause; 80 were Secretary Chandler, Gen. Hazen, Commo- dore Wells and acting-Admiral Luce. As the head of the procession neared the Rockingham House, where Lieut. Greely and survivors were wait ing to review it, the pressure of the crowd became so great that the column was delayed several minutes, Lieut.Greely and comrades were seated upon a balcony. Cheer after cheer greeted them. As the crews of the Bear, Thetis and Alert passed, Greely bowed very low and seemed to look his gratitude to the men who so recently rescued him from an Arctic grave. The scene was very affecting. MANY BRUSHED TEARS from their eyes. Lieut. Greely was kept busy bow- ing acknowledgments as the procession passed. Commanders Schley and Coffin and Lieut. Emory raised their hats as they passed the hero. After the procession Greely and party were driven to the grand stand, where again they reviewed the procession and received the plaudits of the multitude. Among the promi- nent men onthe stand were Secretary Chandler, General Hazen, Governor Hale, Mayor Lathrop of Dover, the Mayor of Newburyport, Samuel J. Ran- dall, Congressman Robinson of New York, the of- ficers of the Relief Expedition and North Atlantic Squadron and members of the City Governments of many New England cities. The procession was dis- missed at 2 o'clock. Shortly after the invited guests were entertained at dinner by the City of Portsmouth. DANGEROUS WORK.

Colored National Guards, Kansas Crry, Mo., August 4.—The fourth biennial TYPHUS FOUNTAINS, Well Water Used by St. Louis Soda Factories. The Health Authorities Doubt the Puri of the Fluid—A Chemical Test te be Applied to Lippincott’s Well—15,000 Gallons of Sewage-Tainted Bever- ages Consumed Daily in the City. It will probably tend to discourage the soda water trade of the city to make public the fact that well water drawn from wells in the heart ot the city is being used in the manufacture of the beverage by all the soda water manufacturers of the city with one, and perhaps two exceptions, but despite this fact, in the interest of public health, the Post Dispatos is compelled to advise the soda water drinkers of the danger of sewage and typhus which they are incurring. A reporter was in- formed this morning that the Lippincott Soda Factory, on Eighth and St. Charles, was draw- ing a great part of its water from a well on the premises, and a visit was at once made to © factory to learn whether this was true. MR. B, LIPPINCOTT was found in his office, and that gentleman at once admitted the 7— truth ot the charge. Our well,” said Mr. Lippincott, is cemented and bricked up and the water is perfectly fresh and good. | Wish we had more woll water to use. Why, there are le who come here to drink this water that wouldn't drink river Vater. They don't like hydrant water, because it’s so full of sewage, and there are so many sources of impurity in the river— floaters and things, you know.” “How much well water do you use?” “| suppose about one-quarter of the water that we use is well water.” How deep is the well?" | About thirty -iive feet, I think.” “Have you ever had any chemical tests applied to the water?” Never.“ “Then you don't knew whether the water is really pure or not?“ “[ know that it is better than hydrant water, if that is what you mean. The water is cool, pleasant to the taste and clear. As I say I wish I ba more of it. We don t get as much of the water as we used to, because the excavations for the Custom-House seem to havetapped the same stream sof water. They had so m water there, you know, that the had to make a new sewer on to draw it off, ane since then we have not had as much as we used to have.” “You sell the greater part of the fountain soda used in the city, do ou not?” “Yes, I suppose so, but you must not labor under the mistake that we are the only manufacturers who use well water. All use it, with perhaps, the single exception of Friese.“ “Then I am to understand that your use of well — 4 is understood by your customers and the pu * “It can ve understood very easily; we are not con- cealing it. The 2 walked about the block upon which e Lippincott factory stands and saw that it was composed, except on Washington avenue, of oid houses tenanted apparently by people who know little of hygiene or sanitation and the situation of the block itself seems to be such that it would get the full benefit of the sewrage from the hill west of it. Taken for all in all, the well is not in a position where a sane man would care to drink from it. A visit was next made to GRONE'S SODA FACTORY on Eleventh street, south of Market. At this place the largest business in the city its done in bottled soda water. Lippincott and Grone doing between them the main part of the business in the city. Richt by the doorway of the factory an old fashioned iron — op y 4 was to bejseen located over a wall which must be a part at least under the pavement.

It is clear and re.” ure. r much bottled soda is consumed: in St. Louis y * About 7,000 or 8,008 boxes. That is from 10,000 to 12,000 gallons, I guess.“ 4 f Po your customers know that you are using well water in your factory!“ “IT suppose so; there has been no secret about it.“ The reporter next went to ' DR. ECCLEMAN the city chemist, at the office of the Board of Health, and asked him if he knew anything about any of the wells in the different soda water factories of the city. “I don't know that we have any samples from any of these wells, but you can take it for granted that the chances are against well in the heart of the city.

MINISTERS’ Interesting Discussions at the Regular Gatherings Held Te-Day. There wasa good attendance at the meeting of Southern Methodist ministers to-day, and a paper was presented by Rev. W. R. Mays on How to Hold a Class Meetiug.“ In his opinion two things are necessary: suitable rooms and a proper leader. The rooms should not be dingy, gloomy or uninviting, as the Holy Spirit is as wont to come into a sunny place as into a dark du n. The leader must be a man of common sense, solemn piety and good judgment. This topic, which is so closely bound up in’ Methodist practice, aroused much discussion, remarks were made by Rev. C. O. Jones, J. E. Godbey, W. R. Mays, C. W. Smith, ©. M. Hensley and Iri R. Hicks. There was considerable difference of opinion as to whether the so-called class meeting of to-day is really the old inspiring gathering that has been made famous by the rich fruit it has borne through all the years past, and there was an expressed fear that the meetings have grown more a but less effec- tive. % report concerning the condition of Rev. Dr. Wilson was not satisfactory. aud the grave fears for his recove prompted a resolution appointing Rev. J. K. Godbey a commit- tee to bear to Dr. Wilson the greetings of the meet- ing and their warmest oe . Session was closed by a praver led bv Rev. 1 R. Hicks, in which was besought divine consolation for the pastor. The Presbyterian preachers engaged in an in- formal talk and in extending fraternal greetings to the two visitors, Revs. D. B. McLeod of Kansas. and G. A. Reiss of Poplar Bluffs, Mo, Announcement was made that this evening at the church the Young People’s Association of Lafayette Park Chureh will tender a reception to Miss Leila A Butler, the missionary, who left their ranks two years ago to work among the Indians of New Mexico. The Methodist brethren had an uninteresting meeting and but few were present. Remarks on divers themes were made by Revs. Corrington, Hag- gerty, Jump, Crow, Jacoby and Holtkamp. PRETTY AND PRECIOUS.

When it was finally recognized some time ago that Marmaduke had such a strength as made him al- most a certain winner regardiess of what combina- tions they might make, they were dis Post-DisPaTcH anounced, to 3 eg situation jo ing in the Marmaduke movement and giving to the General a soli’ delegation from St. Louis. They, at that time, expected that if they would concent to do this they might not only gain some favor with the winning man whom they had fought so hard up to date, but they might allay 3 — to such a degree that they could elect a delegation to Jefferson which would serve their purposes well in making up the balance of the State ticket. When they discovered, however, that Mar- maduke was not only not disposed to acknowledge any obligations for any delegates they * aid in sending, but was determined to put up a ticket of his own in each ward, in order to thwart on open -Marmaduke ing a co rable majority of the city’s forty-eight delegates, they might yet succeed in their efforts to defeat the General. Their programme, based on that possibility, is now as follows: To effect an ar- rangement with all the anti-Marmaduke delegates who may be elected, under which they will vote hs a unit against any candidate for any other State office who will not use his influence to defeat Gen. Marma- duke for the first place. They estimate that the contest for nearly every place on the ticket except that of Governor will be so close that twenty- five or thirty votes from St. Louis will have immense bulldozing power. Going further, they propose, after the nawe held the convention off from a nom- or a few that Ju Norton is any party to this arrangement, or that he would accept the nomi- nation ghould the plan succeed. Their plan may be based @tirely on the fact that when Judge Norton was mentioned in January his answer was . NOT A POBITIVE DECLINATION to allow his name to be used. In all of this ingeni- ous plan the gentlemen who are working on it lose sight of the fact that the doubtful candidates for places on the ticket are not very liable to make trades with the St. Louis delegation, even though it were a solid one, w such trades involve the an- tagonism of such a formidable strength as the Mar- maduke men possess.

The Browns Home. The St. Louis club arrived home from Louisville this morning, and will have a good rest preparatory to the big work before them at the close of the Week. President Von der Ahe is in great good spirits over the way the boys are playing ball, and be says that Foutz is regarded as the coming man. “The men behaved splendidly all through the trip, said Mr. Von der Ahe, “and not only took fine care of themselves, but were in bea early every night, and seemed determined to carry themselves th creditably. In Cincinnati and Louisville enthusiasm ran highand it was the comment of ＋ that finer ball never been witnessed in either city.” AL te tay Le es gam 28 games ncinnati, post 0 played here on Friday. On Thursday the clubs wil meet at Sportsman's Park, and McGinniss will prob- ably twirl f.:the Browns. Tom Dolan's ~ is very painful, and will lay him up for some litt Krehineyer, however, will assist Deasley, and is in excellent shape. Foutz will pitch on Friday, this being his first appearance witu St. Louis at home. Mr. Von der Ahle says; “He is getting his share of batting, and isa hard hitter. is fielding in his position is also wonderful. He assisted five times yesterday, and is doing that class of work right St. Louis va. Louisville. The work done by Foutz on the trip of the St. Louis club just concluded has been remarkable, He bas twirled in four games and in three of these his club has been victorious, while in the other fourteen innings were required to bring matters to a conclu- gion. This is a big week's work and only a little cus- tomary and incidental bad luck has kept the St. Louis club from coming home with four trophies from the six games played. At Louisville yester- day the Browns played the third game there with the Louisville club and came out victorious after one of the most exciting contests ever played in that city. About five thousand peo- ple witnessed the game, and it was to a very great extent a pitcher's duel, but three hits being made off Hecker; who, however, was hit hard in the sev- enth ioning, St. Louis bunching her hita, making three runs and earning two of them. The fielding was also excellent, although MeLaughlin was a little out of shape for Louisville and there were some in- field errors scattered through the game for St. Louis. For St. Louis the hits were made by Nite Yee T m ney, O'Neill, Foutz and Quest. fielded played * Fohtz also fielaéd his position handsomely, cutting off five men at first. rowning, Cline and Wolf made the only hits for Louisville, a single each. Gerhardt Carried the flelding honors. The St. Louis club will arrive home to-day and will have a good three days’ rest, meeting the Cincinuatis at Sports- man's Park on Thursday, St. Louis Unions vs. Kausas City. A very large assemblage gathered at Union Park, yesterday afternoon, the attraction being the final game between the St. Louis Unions and the Kansas City team. The crowd wasestimated at about 7,000 spectators, and the interest centered in Sweeney's ability as a twirler, it being the first time many had seen him in the box. The impression he made was most favorable, and his ease, deceitful change of pace, speed and mastery of the difilerent styles of delivery, classes him as one of the best that ever ap- peared in St. Louis, and he is a great addition to the Union forve. But three hits were made off him and the Kansas City score was kept down to three runs. The St. Louis batted hard, making twelve hits and being aided by nine errors on the part of the visitors; by a singular combination of circumstances, however, they made but four runs and barely winniug by a singie, which was made in the ninth inning, break - ing a score which was tied at the end of the eighth, Biack, who was to have pitched for Kansas City, did not arrive, and Caruthers, a well known local ama, teur. twirled for them. He did well and was ably backed by Kid Baldwin, whois catching re:markah! well. George Baker handled Sweeney well and did his work thoroughly. The game was an excellent one and was thoroughly enjoyed by the large crowd resent. Dunlap laid off on account of sore hands, fis place being taken by Boyle, who did well. The ame was close and exciting from start to finish, % Kansas City elub receiving an especially large share of the applause. The Ft. Waynes Disband. Fr. Wayxe, Ixp., August 4.—The Ft.

The was as, usual, four races on the programme, Th 2:50 unfinished trot had four entries still, two of whom had won a race each, and they certainly made this a hotly contested, close and rattling good race.

Macon Gossip. In the Enquirer yesterday Macon has the follow- ing statement of pugilistic small talk: “It's no use talkin,” said a well-known sport after the Dempsey-Fulljames fight, a good young ‘un can always lick a clever old ‘un; but when you give the young ‘un four inches in height and a stone in weight, why, it's dollars to cents that he'll do his man.“ These were about the real odds in favor of Demp- sey, and the only wonder is that so clever a judge of men as Mart Malone did not see it before he backed Fulljames so heavily. Dempsey has shown himself to be an out-and-out good one, and I should like to see him backed against Johnny Files, whem I consider the John L. Sullivan of light weights. I was in Chtongo the other day, and there I met Parson Davis. He told me that he had sent Jem Goode home with his arm so sore from the effects of the blow on it that Mike Cleary cave it out that he will not be able to use it properly for months. Goode is a fair trial man, but it was foily to back him against Cleary. The Parson tells me that he has a young fellow from Peoria in hand now that he hopes will be a hummer. “Match him against Neal Stod- dard.“ said I; he is a good, though man, and if he can do Stoddard you can then fly at higher — While in Chicago I met a number of Paddy Ryan's friends who were enthusiastic in his N and were loud in their boasts of what he would do when he met Sullivan again. “Paddy wasn't Paddy Ryan at all.“ said one of them, when he met Sullivan at New Orleans. The next time he meets him you can bet he'll give a different account of himself.“ I hope he may, but I don’t think he will. Tre fact of the matter is that Paddy is a genial, good-hearted fellow who is yery companionable, and has the faculty of making friends by the score. His fine physical proportions impress the Tipperary men with the idea that he is a wonder when he isn't any- thing of the kind. I doubt it he will ever meet Sul- livan again, but if he does, think John L. will do him up quicker than he did the Maori. If Paddy would like to tackle something easier than the champion by way of an appetizer. he can accommodated with a 100 pound man in the shape of Dominick McCaffrey who will undertake to knock him out, Marquis of Queensberry rules, in six rounds, and will go to Chicago to get the job. Now, Paddy, here isa chance. If you can do Dominick you can rake ina pile of shekels. If you can't, sublet your contract with the big fellows, Johnny Moran, who was up to in attendance on the Democratic National Convention, told me the other night that while in Paddy's place on State street, he heard Ryan deriding Sullivan's powers, saying that he “was a duffer,”’ etc. “What did you say?" I inquired. “T axed him wot must they be that Sullivan done up so heasily’” he answered. I told him, too, that Sullivan could lick any two men he ever fought in a ring, one hafter hanother; han I told ‘im that John was nothink but a big kid when he fought you.” This must have been very consoling to Paddy, and I know that Johnny ain't bragging, for Jimmy Pat- terson told me about the conversation in New York, and he is one of Paddy's backers, To-Morrow’s Game. The Cincinnati Unions arrive here from Chicago to-night and to-morrow afternoon they commence playing the last games of their series with the St. Louis Unions. The Cincinnati boys come fresh from their victory over the Chicago Club, whom they-hgat by the long score of 8 tol. tomorrow two ex- league pitcher will appear. For the visitors George Washington Bradley, the old St. Louis fay- orite, will do the twirling, while Sweeney will pitch forthe home team. In Wednesday's game Dick Burns will pitch for the visitors, While Werden will do the firing for the St. Louis. On Friday, the last day the Cincinnatis play here, Bradley and Sweeney wi ain be the pitchers. Since their last visit here the Cincinnatis have strengthened their nine at third base and behind the bat, and they should hold their own with the home team from the start.

Williams had prociaimed themselves in fa- vor of the reserve rule. The St. Louis club never bas favored or indorsed that rnie, and the was unwarranted. Neither of the made any reference to the matter, presumed that their position will be what they have done in the past.

She was timed by several capable time-keepers, and passed the quarter in 8254; | if n third quarter in 1:36)4 and the the half in 1;0444; mile in 2:00. . The four-mile race between Teemer and Ross was rowed at Oak Point Saturday, and the McKeesport wonder won, after being led for the first two miles; he got an advantage at the turn, taking the lead there and holding it to the end. The time taken was 26:20, which Hanlan's record with Ross at last July, the best previous time; it 27:56. Barney Biglin said, in reply to some skeptics, that it was one of the greatest races ever rowed, and he had no reason to doubt the accuracy of the time and the course. Se er eee SE ae ane ina pigeon shoot- ing ma herd's was contested at the Gun Club, Shep N near London, England, recently, by Lord de Clifford and Mr. Davenport-Handley. The contestants were to shoot for $10,000, or $5,000 a side, at 100 birds each, Lord de Clifford standing at 31 yards rise, and Mr. Handley at 28 yards. ; Handley lost his first bird, and, becoming rat A his opponent's clean shooting, also lost his lith. 1th and 15th birds, while Lord de Clifford ona down 18 straight. Mr. Handley scored 18 out of 25, against Lord de Clifford's 22 out of 2: 36 out of 50, against Lord de Clifford's 43, and he then tell to pieces, scoring only 13 out of the next 25, when the score, at 75 birds, was 61 to 49 against him. In the next 11 shots he brought down only 5 birds, against 10 for Lord de Clifford, and he then abandoned the match, the score stadding 71 to 84 against him in 8 birds shot at. As there are doubtless many readers who take an interest in the doings of the Philadelphia cricketers abroad, the following is reprodnced from the London World: “The taste of their quality which the Philadelphians gave at Scarborough in compiling the large score of 438 has made English cricketers stare. ese gentlemen, who modestly hesitated to pit themselves ainst our first-rate elevens, seem to have scarcely done themselves proper justice. and are undoubtedly far better than was anticipated. This is a matter for sin- cere congratulation, since it shows cricket to be better established in America than had been sup- posed, The character of the trip of the American gentlemen contrasts very favorably with many oth- er expeditions of a similar kind that have from time to time been made. It is just such a trip as our own clubs make into distant counties by way of holiday, only that the distance traveled is measured by thousands instead of by hundreds of miles. Be- des the players there isa large attendant party of some twenty ladies and gentlemen, who have the keenest interest in the proceedings, one lady taking complete scores of all the matches played. It is a real pleasure to welcome such a party. The walking of the two American amateurs now in England is provoking much comment, Meek is r a stylish walker, while Murray is termed e fairest exponent of the heel-and-toe art seen in England in many a day. An extract from an En- lish contemporary, printed elswhere in this depart- ment, extols Meek's style. and the followin “Pendragon” in the Referee supports Murray's go- ing: Murray's action in the four-mile walk led to a good deal of unfavorable comment, Several gen- tlemen present loudly declared that if they had been judging they would have disqualified him before the rst lap owas completed. Doubtless they were sincere in what they said, in their 8 as 41 spectators; but T venture to think thatif they had really been judges they would have done nothing of the kind—would have done e y as the actual judge did. Murray's style ig stiltv and far from handsome, but his going is fairness itself compared with some walking I have seen ou this und—and I do not refer to profes- sional walking. He mage had one foot on the round, strode vigerously from toe to heel, and I, or one, do not see what more can be wanted. On the score of appearance Meek had a most decided advantage; but after the first lap he went so slowly as to completely surprise those who, having read of his performance in the championship sports at Birmingham, expected very great deeds of him.“ On Monday, at London, England, W. G. George, the amateur champion runner of the world, from one to ten miles, attem to beat the running rec- ord for one honr. On April 7 last. at the annual meeting of the London Athletic Club, at Lillie Bridge, Mr. George undertook to beat the ten-mile record—that of the American Deerfooi, who, on April 3, 1863, lowered all previous records by run- ning ten miles in 52 min. and 56 sec. It was not be- lieved that George could equal this performance, and much money was wagered on the result. The amateur, however, had confidence in himself, and went to the scratch in good condition, after a thor- ough training. Heran apparently within his powers over the whole distance, and finished in good form six seconds ahead of rfoot's time, running the | ten miles in 51 min. 0 ec. His condition at the finish astonishes every one, and it was freely as- serted that if he had not been running against time, but had been pushed by a competitor, he would have lowe the record to several sevonds more, and put it down possibly to 51 minutes. On the other hand, it was asserted that when Deer- foot made his record he ran more within his speed than George did, and that the latter. to prove him- self the better runner, would have to beat Deerfoot's distance for an hour. This was eleven miles 970 yards, and was made with such apparent ease that scores. of sporting men were ready to wager that Deerfoot could make twelve miles. George was put on his mettie, and consented to train for a public at- tempt to beat the hour record. The attempt was set down for Monday, was extensively advertised, and drew animmense crowd. George went on the track in fine condition, aud ran with great contl- dence and strength. He finished fresh and with plenty of wind, but fel! short of Deerfoot's distance of 388 yards, having accomplisned 11 miles and dae yards only. George, it issaid, was surprised at the result, havi supposed that he had slightly ex- the He is said to be determined to make another trial. SUMMER SAUNTERERS, Mrs. C. A.

A Celestial Missionary’s Greetings to His Former Schoolmates. — * — An Impressive Scene at the Chinese Sunday School— How the Laundrymen Spend Their Sunday Afternoons. When Superintendent Charles E. Ford stepped into the Chinese Sunday-school yesterday there was more than the usual smile upon his face, and he showed by his extreme affability that something was pleasing him immensely. The feeling of good humor seemed to be contagious, for it wasn't long before the solemn Celestials seated around the room began to grin in their peculiar way, and on the least provocation to give vent to half-smothered snoris of glee that not even the frown that wrinkled the fair tair forehead of their teachers could tutirely check. The attendance, both of sche and visitors, vas larger than usual. and the former purified of the smell! of soap-suds, seemed very cool in their clean linen and ng wooden shoes or pol- ished leather foot covering. Bach was seated L „* from his fellow. and was under the personal call of a lady. teacher, who led the almond-eye from word to word in the outspread Bible. Occasionally a more than usually big word would stagger the in- telivetual grasp of the pupil, who would nf HIS SHOULDERS, and in a petulent way blurt out: O, me no tlell fiwat miean, You le me.” When would get over that obstacle he would express is satisfaction by numeroys complacent bobbin of his head an are even, attentive devotion his lessen. When the session was nearly over, Mr. Ford took a each teacher left St. Louis a year ago us a missionary. ten back to een ve express his ges satisfaction at the course he pursued, and to state how kindly he had been received at the missionary stations. Mow wound up his epistle, which was altogether a curious document and took along to ed, by old ons to stick while be exhorting his com by the school as long as they could. Mow Lin is but one of many who have left the Sunday - school to do mission- ary work in Oriental countries, and those who saw the school when it was started in 1878 little dreamed of the effect it would have upon that portion of the a Seg oe whose manners and abilities are little nown to the world around them. Six years ago, at the first meeting, only seven Chinamen were fo on hand, and they were obtained only after persist- ent ap and many promises. The work moved along slowly, and for several months there was no increase noted im attendance. However, frequent visite at the laundries developed a feeling of good will between Mr. Ford and his vroteges, and at the end of the first half of the year a promising addi- tion was the result. From that time the school has been A growing, until now those enrolled number o * 3 to 40 attend every Sunday. Of this large class not one has been found to be unmanageable, and once having joined they are always to be found in their chair, unles there is some very good reason for their neces In all parts of the service they take a deep interest, and are especiaily pleased when the organ strikes up. They never fail to try a familiar gospel hymn, and Jeu Hon Yee, who has been in the school only a year, sings soprano with an absence of stage fright that makes him an object of envy to his associates, who seldom dare raise their voices above a squeak. The part of the exercises most pleasant to them, with- out doubt, is the ordimary reading of the Scripture which is not entangled with any mysteries or points of acreed. Their teachers all say that their memories are singularly and that they seldom forget the exposition given to a_ certain line or verse, and months afterward a different meaning ing assigned to the same words meets with the con- temptuous criticiam, Ah you clan’t lead.“ Joe Onn, a member of two years n over the lines with amazing rapidity and advanced 80 rapidly that he has already me AMBITIOUS TO CROSS THE PACIFIC and instruct his countrymen, The entire financial support of the institution is contribted * Mr. Ford, who also carries out a plan of visitation 7 which every one of the thirty-five laundries u the city receives a visit from him twice each month. This kindof labor having‘ been continued for years, Mr. Ford has gained an intimate vaintance with the peculiar habits of the Chinamen now resident here, and la getting correspondingly enthusiastic in his mission the more he sees how susceptible they are to proper influences.

In spite.of the generous co-operation of many other ladies the school is much in need of more teachers, as the attendance of pupils is constantly growing. The churches throughout the city are feeling the effects of these labors and at the First Methodist Church, Rev. Ir} Hicks, pastor, some ten or fifteen Mongolians attend regularly. Several oth- er congregations number among them oneor two pious pig-tails, and within the past month, laundry Chinamen have taken upon themselves the obliga- tions of church membership.

Three Teams Come Together With Disas- trous Result at Sixth and Olive, A very Serious runaway accident, which may re- sult in the death of ane of the injured parties, oc- curred on Sixth street, opposite Pettes & Leathe's at about 10 o'clock this morning. A lad named William Barvien, driving for Charles T. Fitzpatrick commission merchant doing business at No. 502 Christy avenue, had loaded up his wagon and started off when a box fell from his vehicle. He checked his horse and dismounted, and was on the point of remounting when his horse started off on the gallop.

The Ordeal by Water Among the Tribes of Central India, From Lyell’s Asiatic Studies, The ordeal by water is universal among the barbarous Non-Aryan tribes of Central Indi from the Bheels in the west country to the wil men in the almost unexplored jungles of Bustar and the far east, toward the Bay of Be . Here isa description of one water test, a few years ago from mouth of an expert witch- finder among the ls, who got into a — for applying it to an old woman. A bamboo is stuck up in the middle of any piece of water. The accused is taken to it, lays hold of it, and by it descends to the bottom. In the meantime one of the villagers shoots an arrow from his bow, and another runs to pick it up and bring it back to the place whence it was shot. If the woman is able to remain under water until this is done she is declared innocent, but if she comes up to breath before the arrow is returned into the bowman's hand sheisa true witch and must be swung as such.“ In the case from which this account is taken the woman failed in the test, and was consequently swung to and fro, roped up toa tree, witha bendage of red pepper on her eyes; but it is obvious that this kind of ordeal, li o almost all rimitive ordeals, is contrived so as to depend or its effect much upon the manner in which it is conducted, whereby the operator's favor becomes worth gaining. A ul archer will shoot just as far as he chooses. Ordeal by water is the question ordinary, which may srobably be constructed as an — whether he water fetich or water spirit will accept or reject the witch, whether he is on ber side or against her; and this seems best general explanation of a world-wide cus- tom. Another ordeal is by heat, as, for in- stance, the picking of a coin out of burning oil. But the question extraordinary is b on a sacred tree, or by flogging with switches of a particular wood. Swinging before an idol, with a hook through the muscles of the back, is the well-known rite by which a Hindoo devotes himself to the god, and flogging with rods from a sacred tree manifest! ds superhuman vir- tue to the ordinary effect of a vigorous laying on. In 1865 a woman of bringing cholera into the village was deliberately beaten to death with rods of the castor oil which is excellent for purging witchcraft. also to knock out the front teeth of a notorious witch; the practice appears to be cennected with the belief, well-knownin all Commarea that witches assume animal shapes; for in In they are supposed occasionally to transform themselves into wild beasts, a superstition an- alogous to our European lycanthropy. A good many years ago there was an old man practic- ing asa physician near ar, in the Hima- layas, who was notorious asa sorcerer, inso- much that his reputation of having devoured many persons under the form of a tiger cost him most of his teeth, which were extracted by the rajah who then held that country, so as to render him less formidable during his constant metamorphoses. Shaving the heads of female witches is very common among the tribes much infested by sorcerers; it is employed as an anti- dote, not merely as a Cogveding: punishment, so that one is tempted to trace its origin to some recondite notion of power residing in the hair; and thus even back toward Samson, to Circe, with the beautiful jocks, and to the familiar devils of early Christian times, who are said to havea peculiar attachment for women with fine tresses. of low test, only in cans. 1 „ DIED.

A LUNCHEON AT LORD'S. From the London Truth, Mr. Adderly Benyon Byng was nearly, if. not quite, the richest commoner in England, He was about 35 years of age, tall andwlight, with a pale, interesting face, amd a faded yellow moustache, His vices were comparatively few and of a gentlemanly description. His near W- lations consisted of a couple of married sisters. He had no entanglements and was not a gam- bler. Needless to say, therefore, that he was ac- knowledged by common consent to be the most eligible parti in London. But, though by no means in:pervious to the eharms of the fair sex, Byng was terribly difficult to please. The love- liest young debutantes and the most astute mothers had for years angled unsuccessfully for the glittering prize. But each recurring season brought with it some fresher beauty or some more confident mamma, and hence the hunting of Byng went merrily on. He liked to talk to women about pictures, about poetry, love, transcendental philosophy and matters generally mystical and ethereal. He found them so wuech more tolerant than men, and so much less apt to detect his utter and ghastly ignorance of nearly every subject upon which he conversed. Men, in fact, consid- ered Byng an affected nincompoop, and only endured him for the sake of his wealth. “Why the deuce don't you marry, Adderly?” remarked Capt. Tom Carbury one day. Tom Carbury was Byng'’s man-of-all-work and devoted adherent. He had lived upon him for some years, and it was only when his eccen- tricity and vanity became utterly wearisome to the practical benchman that he hinted at mat- rimony. Carbury, moreover, did not see why he should not make a pretty good thing out of his patron’s marriage by a judicious arrange- ment with the bride's family. „My dear Tom,” answered the the transcen- dentalist, ‘‘where am I to find a woman with a kindred spirit; with a soul above the common things of earth; one who can really sympathize with my own idiosyncrasy [”’ “Blessed if I know,” answered the captain, terribly puzzled by his patron's long words; „put if | were in your shoes I should get rather sick of being hunted aboutbv all the old dow- agers in London, and ogled by every girl who comes out. 1 should marry one of them to spite certainly can not marry them all,” mused Byng, languidly. Well, Carbury, I'u think about it.” The captain also determined to think it over, for, as stated, he was getting a little tired of his position. He was a thicket, bull-necked man of two or three and forty, very fond of ood living, and devoted to London and Paris. yng, ou the other hand, professed to despise frivolous amusements, lived like an anchorite for months together, and wasin the habit of oceasionally rushing off to wild and uncivil- ized parts of the globe, where the unfortunate captain was forced to submit to very unwel- come privations, A journey through Tartary had hrought the captain to the verge of rebellion and — he did not like the idea of quar- reling with his bread and butter, he felt that he could not endure many more such terrible ex- iences, so he began to look about him for a — suitable to the errant philosopher. is difficulty naturally lay in the abundance of material from which he had to make the selection. After mature consideration, how- ever, he decided in favor of a certain Miss Con- stance Laxington. She was exceedingly pretty ; it was her first season and her only near rela- tive was her father, whose ree was much longer than his rent roll. ides, Mr. Laxing- ton, as the captain knew, was by no means over burdened with cash and was not likely to have any hesitation in arranging some little scheme by which Carbury might share in the advan- Miss Laxington would derive from a * * tt . “What a deuced pretty girl your daughter is!” said the captain oub evening 2 that you lady’s father as they sat in the smoking room o the Lawn Club. “Think sof” inquired the other, who knew that Carbury was not likely to make such a ro- mark out of pure good nature. “Might n any one,” continued the cap- tain, thoughtfully. 1. began to prick up his ears, and said, ‘Yes, I think she ought to do well.” After a little more preliminary fencing, Car- began to approach the point. She doesn’t know Byng, does she?’ N Na, and I shouldn't think it much use if she did. e's not a marrying man, is her Wer 1 — quite understand what con- tutes a marrying man,“ rejoined the cautio : “but these things 5 happen all the sane, 1 should be very glad ry aig to see married to a nice girl,” he ad signifi- cantly “it would do him a lot of good.“ ington drew his chair closer up to Car bury, and the two beeame engaged in a conver- sation tly of the most absorbing half an hour or so, Carbury I must agree,” remarked Laxing- a terrible fellow to deal the other; “half when wale with. ‘All right,” answered * and the other on day, alan alive, it will be the con- later should be introduced to yng at the house in Grosven- , and monopolized her so met.

Carbury therefore saw that matters were reac a critical juncture, go he thought it advisabie to make a few inquiries about the pe- — tion of Mr. He did not su hearing much. Laxington had been losing somewhat heavily on the turf, but he had paid up; and in the matter of cards he did not seem to have been doing cither any good or harm. So Carbury felt for the present no par- ticular anxiety about his little commission, and was satisficl to let the course of bis patron's jove affair run as smooth as might be. Ascot came and went; Byng was languidly assiduous in his devolion to Miss Laxington, while the young lady, perfectly dressed, con- scious of looking lovely, and fully aware of the envy, hatred and malice which her good for- tune stirred up in the bosoms of her fair rivals. never enjoyed herself more thoroughly or ex- cited more adimiration. With the Captain, how- ever, things went somewhat He betted rather heavily than usual, and lost his money and his temper. Byng bored him terribly, and he grew irritated by Miss Laxington’s exceed- ing sweetness. He sought consolation in crea- ture comforts, and ate and drank to an extent which would infallibly have aroused his patron's disgust if that gentleman had not been too much occupied to notice him. Monday night found Capt. Carbury at the Lawt Club. He bad paid up his losses with some difficulty and felt irritable and dyspeptic. He saw Laxington there, and it occurred to him that he might as well find-outif that gentleman's luck had been any better than his own. Laxington seemed anything but pleased to meet him, and responded to his friendly greet- ing with the curtest of nods. Ey the way; old mau,” began Carbury, as a plan of action occurred, to him, I want to ask you a favor.” Laxington was evidently in a vile temper. Vous come tothe wrong shop for that, my boy!” he sneered. “Had a bad week, I suppose,” said the cap- tain, quite unmoved. ‘Well, | was going to ask you to loan me £500 only fora week; fact is, I've been rather hard hit. Besides, you will owe me more than that in a fortnight, } fancy. dome littie affair of ours may Le settled any v. J can’t lend you £500,” growled Laxington, or 500 pence either; and as to what you call our little aifair, I have no idea of what you're driv- ing at. What the deuce do you mean? Didn't you promise ine a thousand on the day your daugh- ter got engaged to Byng?” No,“ answered Laxington, I never did any- thing of the sort!” “Why, I've got your 10 U!“ “Very likely; there are a good many of them lying about. Wish you may get ing 4 money !” Carbury stared at his friend in disgust and amazement. He could not, however, express his opinion of him in the sacred precincts of a club, so he merely got up withacurt good night, and left the room. That's your game, is it? he muttered to him- self, “Pll be even with you yet. It's not quite such a certainty as you think.” The next morning Laxington eaidently came tothe conclusion that he had made a foal of himself over night, for he called on the captain and explained to him that he did not mean what he said, He hada devil of a temper, he added, and things had been annoying him. Of course it was all right about the 10 U. The astute captain accepted the apology, but he nevertheless made certain inquiries, which resulted in the unpleasant. dis- covery that Laxington had lost £5,000 over the Ascot week, and been entirely unable to settle. A nice prospect for my £1,000?" mused the he was to show his ; “but what a f ng girl! No nonsense about her. Likes a good feed, 600. Saw her eat three platefuls of lobster salad on the cup day.“ . — platesful of lobster salad?” cried “Certainly,” said the captain, eyeing his friend maliciously. Why shouldn't she? Must have a wonderful digestion. I couldn't do it m elf.“ How horribly material,” ned Byng. “Oh, nonsense. You dont expect a well- grown young woman of 5 feet 7 inches to live on air, do you?” 10 is not a subject for joking,” said Byng, se y, and the captain ventured no further. But he played with gloomy silence. 0 The season wore on, but Miss Laxington's en- gagement was not yet announced. Feople be- an to hint that it would not come off af tor all. Lady Oarraway began to grow anxious, and other fond matrons took heart again an a cher- ished fond hopes that the prize of the matrimo- nial market might yet fall to an outsider, Miss Laxington herself, —— was in no way dis- uieted. Her admirer was, perhaps less atten- tive, but his was not @ nature capabje of enthu- siastic devotion, she met him constantly, and could not fairly accuse him of any definite neg- lect; she and Carraway were often seen upon his drag, Byng invited them both to accompany him to the Eton and Harrow match. This jal mark of favor did much to reasure her ladys ship, for Byng had often told her that though he was particularly fond of cricket he had never taken a drag to Lora’s, not caring to 7 a to the number of people who looked upon match merely as an occasion forgormandizing, flirtation and the display of elaborate costumes. „ Lady. Carraway and her charge been instructed to be on ground in good time for lunch, so they made their ap- rance shortly after 1 o'clock. The drag was manted only by Carbury and a few male friends, Byng, as the captain explained, was the game from f Derr egy weal was obviously ill at ease; his lunch and maintained a the of the was son this was at preoccupied and silent, and easily accounted for by the absorbi he evincedin the watched Since thet q Wind that —Ma going | here. dedly singular. ö Miss Laxington's el ing on her attention some triumph of Byngs chef; now filling her glass with champagne or pi up her plate with strawberries. A these little attentions he would retire behind the drag and write some down on a piece of paper. The captain's osity at length exhausted his patience. He watched his opportunity, therefore, and came upon Corker suddenly— just as that individual made an entry on the sterious sheet. What are you up to?” he asked. Corker wads momentarily confused, but he answered with dignity: ; Jam making a hinwentory, sir.“ an — tho deuce do 2 ** A hinwentory, sir, by Mr. Byng's orders,” responded the butler, somewhat ruffled.

Carbury, as it happened, did not see him again till late in the evening, when he found him in a state of great, mental perturbation, pouring over a small sheet of note paper, on which cer tain hierog!yphics were scrawled in pencil. „What's the matter?’ cried the Captain, you look awfully bad.” My hopes are shattered,” said Byng, in a dis- mal voice; ‘‘my fondest illusions have radely dissipated ; the dream is over.” What are you talking about“ Look at this,” answered the philosopher in his most tragic tones, Carbury book the paper and read: Two platefuls mayonnaise, 2 ditto Perigord pie, 1 ditto lobster salad, 2 quails in aspic, ‘i meringues — 6 glasses champagne, 3 help- ings strawberries and cream, 2 ices, 1 glass of | liquor brandy.” „Well, what is it? It reads like a menu.” “It is the disgusting record @ the guzzlin ropensities of Miss Laxington.

When Mme. Patti has signed an engagement, there is joy fyom the green waves of the At- lantic to the blue billows of the Pacific. The reat cantatrice does not travel in America; she is not an artiste bastening from one city to an- other; she is a sovereign making royal progress, visiting her loyal people. The clubs are as aris- tocratic, as exclusive, as the great clubs of Paris. Baccarat flourishes in them, and it was in them that poker was invenied. Will any one assert that itis the intellectual and artistic movement of France which draws to us the free citizens of the United States? Why, Phila- delphia, and especially Boston, surnamed the New Athens,’ are proud of their museums and academies; the younger school of the American romancers, Bret Harte, W. H. Bishop, Edward Fawcett, are more popular than any of the English novel writers. Then why this invasion uf the Americans? Why do they abandon their admirable country and come over here and dazzle us with their luxury! Why do they come to Paris rather than to England, to Germ- any, or elsewhere? For a long time past the social circles of Paris have ceased to be a closed world. Formerly society lived upon haughty traditions. It was very difficult for-new com- ers to penetrate into it. Today, thanks to the ium~ortance which money has acquired, the con- dition of things is no longer the ame. A large fortune, earned without too noisy a scandal, a celebrated name, will sufficeto force all doors open with wonderful ease before all strangers who have any respectability. By this I mean those who are received by the Ambassador or minister of their country. Thatis the touch- stone and the best one, for a dishonest man and a declassee woman do not dare to face the test. As the prestige of money increases, that of birth naturally diminishes. Vast revenues amassed in wholesale commerce or picked out of the veins of mines are nowadays quite sufff- cient titles of nobility. The French ear yeah has for a long time been in the habit of regild- ing their coat-of-arms with the fortunes native of the bourgeous and financiers. Then they turned their attention to foreign dots, and the most recherche young girls are the charming misses, as much millionaires as they are pretty, whom America generously exports. When they arrive all are anxious to receiye and do them honor. Their parents are often lacking in education, but they thernselyes, belonging to the second generation, are ignorent of none of the secrets of correct life. hey are general! very much better educated than young French irls, and that, too, without pedantry. for you do not have to talk along while with them be- fore you discover that they know a great deal, that they are always reading, and that their minds, formed by study — observation, do not recoil before the most difficult problems of hilosophy. It is there quite natural that after aving been received in the grande monde they should soon acquire full rights of citizenship. Women have, besides, the art of rapidly adapt- ing themselves to new situations, and the American woman more so than any other, be- cause she is brought up in a more intelligent way than the French woman; and she is also braver, because she is less held in restraint, and is freer, because she knows more. The American who has made a sudden fortune has, therefore, every interest in coming to Paris, tor if ere All doors are open before him, in the United States all doors are closed in his face. This may seema paradox, but the fact is that we do not know what Americau social life is. The aristocracy over yonder is very haughty; it gives a value to money, but a still greater one to birth. What kind of birth? Ask those who do not know what is that republic which is not, like ours, the offspring of a traditional monarchy. There are many citizens of the United States who secretly regret that titles of nobility do not exist in their country. Not hav- ing these titles, they place nobility in certain things which can easily be defined. Thus a large fortune handed down from generation to — is a title of nobilty which closes the doors on too recently made fortunes; the admis- sion to certain political offices, such as the Pres- idency, the Cabinet, a seat in the Senate, an im- portant diplomatic post, or a commission in the army, is another title which shuts the common politician, and there the descendants oof the the “old families,” as they call themselves, who rigidly keep their doors closed to all new arrivals. It is not at all rare to hear an American lacy say: I don’t know Mme. X. She doesn’t belong to my set.’ In the Revue des Deux Mondes I read a few months backafine review of an American novel, and I made a note of the following 4ypi- cal dialogue: % Do you know, sir,’ said Miss Spuytenduy- vil, ‘that we are distantly related? „Jun absolutely unaware of it, miss,’ an- swered Wainwright, „ „Ves, a Wainwright formerly married a Spuytenduyvil.

Panics and Their Deadly Results in Epidemics, From the London Lancet. It is a most deplorable proof of the weakness of human nature that it is at all times prone to fall into a state of panic when brought face to face with the inevitable. We must all die, and we are not ignorant of this, our destiny. Nev- ertheless, the instant a danger to life is recog- nized, we fly from the peril with the impetuous haste of crazy and cowardly creatures, forget- ful alike of duty and deceney. It is vain to ar- gue in favor of self-possession.

If this be hers and ELECTRIC MOTORS. A Resolution Foreshadowed by Recent Important laventiona, more than five on an ascent. thirty miles was accomplished by moving car from one route to another in the French Daft motor on a Sara The electric railway in Vienna dates back to the Electric Exhibition there, when a mile in power, a printing press, a sand mill and other machinery. An electrical omnibus, also, has been tried with success in Paris, during the busiest hours of the day, and the heavy vehicle was turned with facility. In mo of the coal’ electricity has for many oyed, thermo-electric stove has been invented, as have also electric lights that dan be used on railway cars, in spite of the vibrations and fre- quent shocks to which trains are exposed. On the water, electricity as a motor has made no less rapid than on land. Last summer an electric boat was plying on the Danube Canal, taking thirty or more passen- gers six miles an hour against the strong cur- rent and eighteen miles an bour with the stream. Two years ago a launch propelled by electricity was shown on the Thames, and the following year a boat of that character, forty feet long, attained a speed of eight miles an hour on the measured mile—this boat being the ones we be- lieve, already spoken of as used on the Danube, Its trips were accompiished, of course, without smoke, or heat, or smell of oil, and also without noise of engines or vibration. As for the ap- ication of — to submarine it is now the subject of much study, at with some success. Electric arms have already been invented, aud one such weapon was operated not long ago by Col. Fosbery at London, before an assembly of army officers and others, by means of a small accumulator secreted under his waistcoat. The gun was the invention of Pieper of Liege, whe has fired more thana hundred s with itin two minutes. Wemay yet see electricity revolu- tionizing the manufacture of small arms. But there is special interest attaching to the use of electricity in transportation, because here an enormous element in modern ite, aifect- ing great populations at all times, is dealt with. Of course the matter must still be viewed as experimental, since only testa fully determine those considerations of economy, con- venience, and safety on which ultimate success depends. It is certainly noteworthy, however, that while 2 ay motors, * : — — hey compressed air, e springs, CADICS, | have been under contemplation and trial for 80 many years as possible substitutes for horses in street railways, electricity has suddely come to the front, threatening to supersede them all.
