He was bap- tised plain Charles Harris, but the existence another person of the same name who persist- ently received letters intended for him, while he got those of h namesake, led him to incorporate the X. with his baptismal titie. In 1875, Mr. Harris, who had early developed @ marked talent for art, went to Europe where he studied in the studio of yo famous Freach Ine may a Zabanel. He wandered and exten Tunis, traveled on foot throveh Brigand Sicily, lived in Italy and dreamed some months away on the Island of Capri, which is now quite colonized with artists who have married their After visiting most of the artistic shrines of Euro and painting for eome time in England, r. Harris returned to America in 1882. He was one of the artists em- plo ed on the decoration of the Vanderbilt palaces bis hand bas deen active in the embellishment of other great houses. He exhibited with — 2 in the exhibitions of 1883, and last year paint cabinet pictures of quaint. conceit and nish. His first subjects were drawn from the pi ue life of the Italian quarter, where his fluent know- ledge of the language made him quite at home. ples of this phase of his art are to be found in the gallery of Mr. Thomas B.

The family reside on Tefith street in the quaint little rear building which is the meeting place of the famous Tile Club, and where W. T. Smedley has his studio. Miss in addition to furnishing inspiration for pictures, is herself a painter of decided merit, and in every way a talented and charming woman. The artists are awaiting the completion of HER LITTLE ROMANCE with an interest accentuated by their regard for its prospective heroine. As if the marital fever were epidemic in the studios, the report is now current that a third disciple of art is on the eve of a union with a lady whose counterfeit pre- sentment he has frequently given to the public in his work. This gentiemen is widely known as an illustrator, and was at one time at the head of one of the illustrated papers. These marriages will, if they are all realized, give New York a boast of artists’ wives. who have graduated from the em- ploy’ ment of the studio te its control.

Like her American sisters under consideration, Mrs. Low was not only a model by profession, but an artist at heart, and her transition to another sphere of life was scarcely to bé wondered at.

Passengers on the street cars left their seats and tried to push their way to the front to discover why the inspiring music was played, while from blocks around pedestrians rushed towards the spot.

Speclal Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Lonpon, July 18.—The proceedings in the Com- mons last night are a confirmation of the saying that Tories are Radicals in office, It is hardly too much to say that the debate struck an unprecedented blow against the honor of the British Pariiament. About the merits of the Maamtrasna trials it seems dificult to doubt that justice was done. Almost all the politicians, Liberal and Tory, scout the idea of any miscarriage. On the other hand, it must be said that some private persons who profess to have gone over the ground fully firmly assert the INNOCENCE OF MILES JOYCE. Parnell'’s paper, United Ireland,said after the trial: “We believe the public are satisfied that a disgraceful butchery has been avenged upon convincing evidence by juries comparatively fairly chosen.“ This, of course, Parneil’s speech last night flatly contradicted, but the significance of last night's proceedings is the proof afforded that the Tories are ready to make a brazen sacrifice of principle for the benefit of party tactics. They simply followed at Parnell's heels, for, though refusing a Government inquiry, they promised that CARNARVON should institute one, which completely satisfied the Irishmen. Thus they stultified deliberately all their previous words and votes on the question. When in opposition, all their attacks upon the Govern. ment were for not sufficiently. inforcing the law. Now, when in office, they throw law and precedent to the winds. They have not a word to say in defence of the law's administration inside their own party, There is already AN INDIGNANT PROTEST. Their own organ, the Standard, censures them, and the Times, Telegraph and News denounce them. The Irish Conservatives are certain to be greatly alarmed and disgusted. The only consoling refiection is in the paradox that the worse the Tories do the better itis. Chamberlain and Dilke withdrew from the House last night. Gladstone is about to issue a kind of political manifesto out- lining the policy of the Liberals, for the guidance of the Liberal speakers during the election. At present the latter do not venture much inthe way of definite statement or forecast. They are only marking time. GLADSTONE has been unable to be in the House of Commons for some days. Information reaches me privately from the best quarter that his health has taken a very unsatisfactory turn—precarious was the word used in describing it. His state of health is worse than people think. Iam able to state that Cham berlain is also preparing a manifesto, giving a defi- nite statement of the policy of the Radical party. This will precede his tour of speech-making through the country. Heisthe chief man who will appeal to the electors by his voice in the coming struggle. The Irish party entertain P, A.

These mornings the corner has a delightful northwestern exposure that is even as attractive as it is con- ducive to personal comfort. One of these corners is at the junction of Cass avenue with a western cross street, and here, when the sun was not yet three hours high to-day, a bandful of young fellows who ipfest the neighborhood, met to borrow chewing tobacco from each other, whittle chips of wood, discuss the latest improvements in spring- m pants and 2@-caliber revolvers, relate romantic experiences with the fair dames and darling ones at the „ excursh and the social hop, and talk base-ball. It was evident from the malicious way in which the pitcher of the cloth Club vered bimseif of a juicy se- from kept hls mouth open ked. Say, fellers,“ the Che secioths’ pitcher 1 „d' jer know wat dem giilies in the House o' Dele- gates tried ter do las’ night?" “Naw,” answered the short stop of the Little Dunlaps, who had had his nose knocked up toward his forehead by a misjudged hot ball; w'at wuz “Dey tried ter put a tax on base-bawl.“ said the pitcher. ‘Wanted de perfegh'nal play'’rs ter take out lic'nses like a dog! Nex’ t‘ing yer know dey'll want dem ter wear brass collars ‘round der necks an' tie demselves up in de back yard wid chains.” Dey re naw gud,” said the left fielder of the Morning Stars. “Who ain't?” asked the big catcher of the Cold - nine. “Dem pollytishins,“ answered the left fielder. “Yer kin betcher life dey ain't,“ said the Cheese- cloths’ pitcher, freely donating more tobacco juice toward sprinkiing the street; but sa-aay! Dyer know w'at dey calls profeshnijl base-bawl players! De scum o creation; jes’ tink o it; de scum o creation.” “Who said dat?’ asked the second baseman of the Twelfth Ward Dudes. “Dat fellar Collins.“ was the pitcher's reply. „Old Chyo Pock!“ exclaimed the Cold Days’ left fielder, gleefully. Chyo Pock evidently being a nick- name with which the pe amateurs christened Mr. M. R. Collins, jr. „Well, sa-a-ay! d'jer know, dat monkey makes me sick!“ said the center fielder of the Liver Pill nine. ‘He'd better gosomew'ere were It's nice an’ soft an’ t'row mud at hisself.“ “De scum o creation!" repeated the Cheesecloths’ — guess he t inks baw! play 'rs don't now nothin’ an' aint good fur nawthin’ but ter have de p lice knock ‘em down an' d dem in.” Sa- a-ay! put in the Cold Days’ fielder. “I s'pose be means ter soy dat de perfeshnil base baw! . aint got no edjercaghin’, dat de can't talk tin an’ Greek, an' dasn't write fur de pers Well look ahere waving his index finger in a what-do- esture, I guess he don't «now ‘bout John- an’ Bushong an' jumpin’ Jack Jones an’ dem feilers—dey're all genewine 92 graderjates an' didn’t Hen Lucas promise Bushong wen he wrote fur him to France ur Germany ur some place like dat, dat he'd give him work durin’ de winter lin’ his family's teet’.

I wud, ef *twuz me wuz tackiin’ him, de Irish Chinaman!" “But sa-a-ay!

The decorative craze has struck the barber- shops now, and before long | sup the boot- blacks will have it. ration has got tosuch a 1 that it is tiresome to the eye and every- tl but beautiful. Nearlx all the hotels, pub- lic -rooms, picture galleries and a good many of the shops are so much overpainted, overdecorated, overupholstered and overdone generally that I begin to think that a i whitewashed room, with puritan furniture, straight up and down chairs and sanded fioor w create a decided furor if it were intro- duced into the heart of the esthetically deco- rated region of New York. I went into a bar- ber’s shop the other day on upper Broadway which was as gorgeous as a factory girl’s idea of a palace. The chairs were models of the carver’s misdirected energy. The mirrors were surrounded by extraordinary frames; the floors were tiled with various colored woods; the — SS. a mass of 28 uncouth and ＋ o designs and the w were arra in wildest excess as far as papier plaques, stucco work and drapery was con- cerned. Atthe six chairs stood six barbers, — Sepirt ape made of striped material that resem the old style of awning. A small miserable looking boy with a red fez sat within the cashier’s who was presumably * + ncaa for itall, had his chair raised on a platform, whence he kept supervision over the other man. The brush boy wore livery, and altogether the whole establishment was about as gorgeous as the most ambitious barber could dreain Amar whom I knew was just get- — a e 2 of the lot. didn’t a word. None of the barbers are to in this establishment. good thing barber, but a barber who is oppressively and pe tier 2 — BOC who talks. This 22 one was solemn-looking and quick. ave me the worst shave that I ever had in my on street, I came to the conclusion that a little less decoration and better barbers would enhance the value of the shop considerably. A barber shop is not an inspiriting subject to write about, but since they are mene ties men who unfortunately cannot shave t - selves, 2 should be comfortable, and, above all, they ould never offend the eye with dis- cordant and silly decorations.

SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1885. - Subscribers to the Post-Dispatom who contem- plate leaving the city during the summer will receive their paper as usual if they will leave the new address at this office or give it to the carrier. Mr. CLun is having another bad spell to- day. THE Globe-Democrat will have to work a little harder to convert Mr. CLUBB. THE Bartholdi Pedestal Fund is within thirty- five hundred dollars of the top notch. THE WORLD office was serenaded last night by the French residentsof New York. A com- pliment well deserved and well bestowed. Tue Wiggins Ferry Company is now switch- ing and transferring at CLUBB rates—one dollar to competing points, and three dollars where a gouge is safe. — — — THE heat in New York has been so intense as to cause numerous cases of sunstroke. Thus far in the season St. Louis has been the most successful of all summer resorts. COMPTROLLER CAMPBELL is expected back from New York inafew days. If we remem- ber rightly, Mr. CaMPBELL has a little engage- ment with the State Board of Equalization. WE publish another installment of the miser- able history of the attempt of our little tin ferry monoply to wreck the commerce of St. Louis. How long will St. Louis endure such fantastic tricks? DELEGATE COLLINS would do weil to resign. Any one who permits himself to make a public utterance that the professional base-ball players are the scum of creation,” should retire to private life. —— — WE are still waiting to hear the contradic- tion of Senator ALLEN’S story against the Peni- tentiary Commissioners WALKER, BOONE and SEYBERT. The columns of the Posr-DISrATCR are at their service. — THE announcement in this morning’s Globe- Democrat that Captain CLUBB of the Wiggins Ferry Company had been brought to his senses, is premature. The unfortunate man still con- tinues to wreak his vengeance on the trade of St. Louis. — — THE Mexico Ledger appears to be very un- reliable” as a Democratic newspaper. It has been guilty of telling on a Democratic official who rides on free passes after having taken a solemn oath to obey and enforce the laws of the State. THE assessment of property in IIlinois is sup- posed to be one-fifth of the actual value. In Missouri it fluctuates. If you own a city house and lot, the property is assessed at its full value. If you own a railroad it is assessed at one-seventh of its full value. Tun people of Missouri and Pennsylvania can adopt an anti-monopoly Constitution by an overwhelming majority, but, in the matter of choosing members of the Legislature to pro- vide adequate remedies and penalties for the enforcement of that Constitution, they are cheated every time. | THe Board of Penitentiary Commissioners have hard work deciding which side of Kansas City they shall blight by selecting the sight for the Pen. Weare right sorry for Kansas City, With all its faults we are proud of the Little Giant of the West, and as for the branch Peni- tentiary, Kansas City would be better with- out it. ———ůé—— THE increase in the elevation of the standard of political morality in this country is quite amazing. Editors and public men who, eight years ago, looked on with indifference when Hares knowingly rewarded with office the rascals who stole the Presidency, now become indignant in protest when the discovery is made that one of CLEVELAND'S appointees is a man of bad character. SSS Tus Cincinnati Graphic, which is undoubted- ly the finest of the weekly illustrated papers of the West, is reaching out into St. Louis asa partof its territory. It has recently begun making St. Louis items and scenes a specialty, and as its editor, Mr. Oris HALL, was formerly a St. Louis journalist, his acquaintance with this city enables him to make his paper inter- esting to St. Louis people. Iy we may judge by the letters we receive a great many of the private watchmen are great- ly troubled over the recent orders of the Board of Police Commissioners relating to them. We are eatisfied that the regulations of the Board will be reasonable. Pri- See cerns Sn eee abana wile en clearest e exined | with police authority, should be subject to the supervision of the Commissioners. - Sass THE PEOPLE'S LAW. Article XII of Missouri's Constitution relat- ing to corporations and railroads is a dead letter in every one of its twenty-four sections which the railroads do not want enforced. The twelfth section, declaring that railroads shall not be permitted to charge more for a less distance than for a greater distance, is par- ticularly dead. That and the section forbid- ding the consolidation or joint control of parallel lines have been violated every day of the ten years since the Constitution was adopted. Dead as a door nail are all the sections which forbid discriminations, rebates, drawbacks; which forbid presidents, directors, officers, agents or employes of any railroad company to be interested, directly or indirectly, in furnish- ing material or supplies to such company or in the business of transportation over the lines of said company. Deader still, if possible, are all the sections which declare the accept- ance of a free pass the forfeiture of a State or county office, or which dény the benefits of all future legislation tothe railroads that do not fully accept and obey all these provisions relating to railroads. But nothing was ever buried deeper than the sections commanding the Legislature to enforce all these provisions with regulating statutes and adequate penalties.” The police power has been laid away in lavender, so far as these matters are concerned, although one of the sec- tions referred to particularly insists that the exercise of that power shall never be so abridged as to permit corporations to conduct their business in such a manner as to infringe the equal rights of individuals or the general well-being of the State.” What pretence has the Legislature made of obeying these mandates and enforcing these provisions? It has simply re-en- acted them as _ statutory c ommandments without any adequate remedies for their enforcement or any adequate penalties for their violation; and it has ordained that the people shall pay $15,000 a year for a Railroad Commission which is the powerless butt of the railroad managers. The salaried attorneys of these corporations are placed at the head of Democratic committees; they run the caucuses aud conventions of the dominant party unsus- pected by most of its voting cattle,” and the roads they represent are cutting the throats of Missouri enterprises by discriminating against them. The languishing commerce and manu- factures of this city are now suffering from illegal inficitions of which they dare not even publicly complain, lest worse be imposed upon them. It has come to such a pass that corporations, which respect no law but the edicts of Wall street money kings can trample the provisions of our State Constitu- tion in the dust, not only with impunity, but apparently with the connivance and approval of our legislators and State officers, who take no steps to protect our people or to enforce respect for the rights guaranteed to them by the organic law of the State. The outcome of a similar state of things in Pennsylvania is thus set forth by the Philadelphia Record: Within the last ten years the most valuable mineral deposit in the country has been absorbed by six companies; our oil flelds have been placed in the hands of the Standard Oil Company; our coke business bas gone under the control of a syn- dicate; our iron business been turned over mainly to a few companies which have been built up by railroad favoritism and discrimination; our agricultural production has been repressed, and our grain export business has been delivered to two or three favored shippers. Towering above all these monopolies rises the trunk-line pool, a com- bination representing over a thousand million dol- lars of capital, and regulating all the trade between the seaboard and the West, subject only to the competition of the free waterways. The State of Pennsylvania is to-day in the clutch of twelve pools that cripple its productive capacity in the three items of coal, grain and oil to the extent of over sixty million dollars a ear. They at- tempt to regulate the currents and channels of trade, and to say where articles shall be produced, how shipped and where sold. They place the peo- ple of Philadelphia at the mercy of two gas coal companies, the Penn and Westmoreland; they treat the coal consumers of the State with similar injus- tice. They limit competition beyond the bounds of reasonable protection. They restrict production and maintain prices. They divert and suspend shipments at will. They exalt themselves above the highest legislative power in the nation, and regulate commerce, They operate in restraint of trade by interfering with the interests of the public. Yet a State Convention of one of the great parties of Pennsylvania but a few days ago voted down a resolution in favor of enforcing the State Constitution, and it then proceeded to nominate for State Treasurer one of the most brazen of the political hacks of the Pennsylva- nia railroad monopoly. Missouri is passing under a similar yoke, and if her people do not want it fastened on their necks with bolts of iron and rivets of steel, they should make the enforcement of their Constitution the one over- shadowing issue in the election of their next Legislature. Tux New York Wonto's Pedestal Fund move- mept appears to have got into what whist players call “the nine hole. Chicago Tribune, July 17. The New York Wor.LD’s Bartholdi Pedestal Fund this morning isin the $96,468 22 hole, with $125 more inthe Post-Disraton cash- box. The whole amount could be raised in a day if the WORLD would ask a few rich men to chip in, but that is just what the Won does not want todo, It wishes the fund to repre- sent a popular subscription, to be the gift of the people, and we can assure our envious contemporaries that as long as the WORLD is satisfied with the progress ot subscriptions, there is no need of concern on their part, Competent judges say that the WORLD bas not lost anything by the time, money, work, care and thought it has given to this enterprise, which will de completed in a few days. — Tux views of the Delegates, as expressed last night, on. the question of licensing base-ball parks, are full of interest. Mr. CoLLins was — of the great national game as. “ee oe. so unmindful of public opinion on the subject. ) n n Ser an e en eee ‘to be effect that he had once been a professional ball player himself. Then Mr. WENZLIOK ex- pressed the profound opinion that there was too much base-ball, and that it produced gam- bling, whereupon Mr. ALT. gave it the left- handed support of his opinion that gambling brought business. Mr. Coakuzy “had been informed” that one base-ball association made $150,000 last year. The St. Louis House of Delegates is attracting a great deal of atten- tion by its broad and statesmanlike views of great questions. LL TT Tun fight between the telephone monopoly and its Indiana patrons has resulted in a tem- porary compromise, The attempt to evade the law prohibiting a charge of more than $3a month for instruments by means of a new form of contract charging $20 a year for instruments and $40 a year for services and appliances, was stubbornly resisted by the patrons as equivalent toa maintenance of the old charge of $5 a month. The compromise is that the patrons are to signthe old contracts and pay the old price, with a stipulation indorsed on the back that the difference between $3 and $5 is to be refunded tothem if the State Supreme Court sustains the new law. In that case the company says it will appeal to the United States Supreme Court, and, pending a final de- cision, will either remove the telephones from the State or else render a very inferior service for $3 a month. — EUROPEAN NOTES. The Pall Mall Gazette scandal turns out to be something more than “a nine days wonder;" for the nine days have elapsed without any special dim- inution of the wonder. Indeed, it seems to grow abroad as well as at home; and far the first time in the long history of foul odors, London has produced a smell | which compels all the world to hold its nose. Meanwhile, as if to increase the eclat of the nause- ous norelty, such “a commission of inquiry” has volunteered for the disagreeable service of investiga- tion as never before was seon or heard of in the midst of such unfragrant surroundings. Think of an Archbishop of Canterbury, 4 Cardinal Arch- bishop of Westminster, a Bishop of London, and & member of Parliament, jointly and severally en- gaged in probing an ineffable nastiness to ascertain whether it is better or worse than sample! From present indications it will be worse; certainly no better. Meanwhile, Parliament has wisely abandoned the proposed pro- ceedings against the publishers, all the preachers and philanthropists in the three king- doms are rushing to their support with letters of indorsement and encourageinent, and the Gazette is making more money and fame than is likely to be obtained by the revised version of the Old Tes- tament. To slightly amend a familiar missionary bymn: Blow, blow ye spicy breezes, Blow soft o’er Britain's isle— Where every prospect pleases, And only man is vile. And if there is a finer fieid for vigorous and per- sistent missionary labor than London, will some brother please rise and indicate the locality, Where, O, where, are Moody and Sankey? Not long ago they prociaimed the piety of London, as com- pared with the iniquity of the great American cities. They should hasten back to the British metropolis, and resume active warfare against Satan—who has evidently availed himself of their absence to make a dangerous and diabolical flank movement. Parliamentary politics have been terribly dull until a day ortwo ago, when a telegram to the Times announced another Russian advance in Afghanistan, which, though not yet fully confirmed, has stirred up the Jingoes” to fighting pitch, and converted a good many who are not Jingoes to the same way of thinking. The Tories are not to be fooled with in this matter as were the Liberals, and the Czar will find that it is one thing to bamboozle Gladstone and quite another to humbug Salis- bury. Russia will have to call a halt or call out her soldier boys, for popular sentiment in England is such that nao % nonsense will be allowed, let prevention cot what it may. And Rus- sia is likely to stop when she finds the lion in her path and ready to try conclusions with the bear. Just now the Angio-Russian treaty—cooking for so many weeks—is so much waste paper. Gen. Lord Wolseley has arrived home, somewhat in the predicament of “The hero home from the wars, With his back all covered with scars." He insists that an autuma campaign in the Sou- dan, to smash the Mahdi,“ is the only sure cure for the growing rebellion; the only thing that can possibly prevent the rebels from invading and cenquering Egypt, hoisting the banner of the Prophet upon the pyramids, hanging the Khedive and his ministers upon sour apple trees, and chas- ing the last European into the sea. Thus far Wolseley has received small encouragement from the Government, and is not liable te lead an army to Khartoum until he has much less hair on his bead than he has now. England has had enough of the Soudan soup for the present, and does not propese th burn her tongue with that red-hot ‘dish any more. Wolseley will be “hung up to dry,” un- less there should be war with Russia, when he may be permitted to learn the difference between fight- ing Russia and fighting Egyptians. We are glad to be able to announce, on the usual reliable author- ity, that EI Mahdi is dead again. In the name of all the infernal gods at once, let us hope he will stay dend this time, In Ireland for the past week patriotism has re- tired to the rear, and pockets leaped wildly and vociferously to the front, The failure of the Muns- ter Bank, with liabilities to the tune of $5,000,000, has been a reguiar double-barreled financial bomb- shell in the Irish camp, and the explosion has com- pletely swamped for the present all interest in the burning question, Why should Hogiand rule Ire- land?” How. much hard times, and how much bad or rascally management has had to do with the colossal collapse remains to be shown by the Coro- ner’s inquest. The victims are clamoring for the punishment of the victimizers, and it is quite prob- able some hitherto highly respectable citize ns will | find themselves in zebra costumes, surveying a wicked world through nicely rated windows. Last Sunday, being the anniversary of the battle of the Boyne, the usual rows occured between the de- seendante of the victors and the descend- ants of the vanquished, and at Waterford one civilian was killed. and several soldters bandied with more vigor than. mercy, The regiment in garrison had to be removed to prevent @ general insurrection, and toe Waterfordians are now waiting for the next lach of July to even with the bieode Saxons.” It is nearly 200 years since Boyne was fought, and we suppose that 200 years hence—if the planet swings so long—the champions of King William and the champions of King James will celebrate the day ia the present pretty fashion. Across the channel France has had her annual Baatile celebration, in which nobody was killed or undo, and everybody bad a nye time. Men bete ee v. * rene | won 22 eee gh | had a first-class strike. Mormon m o Wednes- day. He merits whatever immortality bronze or marble can give, and France honors herself in hon- oring him. The French troops seem to have crushed out all serious opposition in Anam, and the country will be neatly “annexed” at the earliest practicable moment. If Germany should take 4 notion to annex France, how would Freoch people liké that? Yet Germany would have the same right, only not the same might, that France is ex- ercising in Anam. England and English folks are not increasing in popularity among the Parisians, and there was quite a lively “anti-English demon- stration” in one of the fashionable localities the other night. No bloodshed, but considerable bad blood manufactured—which will bear fruit in due season. Germany is as dull as a picnic in a rain storm. The old Emperor is switching around from one watering place to another, apparently in no im- mediate need of chaplain or undertaker. Empress Augusta is offering prizes for portable hospital tents, Bismarck is wrestling with Austro- German customs duties, and the bricklayers of Berlin have have invaded the German capital, and propose to convert everybody convertable to the gospel according to Joseph and Brigham.

Secular affairs in Italy are jogging along as usual, and the Quirinal and the Vatican are no nearer in sympathy than they have been at any time during the past fifteen years: Austria has had a riot among the Moravian tanners, and storms very destructive of crops, property and life have prevailed in hundreds of parishes. As some compensation for the calamity, it is announced that the Czar will visit Emperor Francis Joseph in September. Switzerland is mak- ing a strong effort to get rid of the Anarchists, ana Spain has given up all hope of getting rid of the cholera—which is literally slaying its thousands and tens of thousands. Finally, the adorable Patti, who belongs to Spain by right of birth, to Italy by right of Nicolini, to England by right of residence and to France by the right of the Marquis de Caux. has at last gotten rideof the latter by payigg him a bonus for damages in purse and person ef $80,000— and is now free from every domestic incumbrance except the Nicolinian tie. Gentie Adelina—how much you know of music and marriage. Laborer to Capitalist. From the San Francisco Chronicle. So when the capitalist says to the laboring man: “You get $2 or $3 a day for work which your great, great grandfather was very glad to do for 50 cents; therefore you ought to keep your family well and put money iu the bank on a weekly income which he would have regarded as good pay for a month's steady work"—when the capitalist says this, the laborer should reply: Tes. I get four times or six times what my ancestor received, but for clothes food, house rent, a ments—everything in fact which makes life worth living—I pay four or six times what he did. In addition to this he lived in the simplest way, because it was the custom in his day. Now, I have been moved on by customs, not of my own making, so that the style of life which was seemly and decent when he lived is out of the question forme. My wife requires better clothes, my boysand girls have many wants which were unknown when Iwasa child; but some of them must be gratified. You cannot dress your wife and girls in calico on Sunday when your neighbors, who are no better off, wear silk; you cannot make your family contented to live on mush and milk when the smell of your next-door neighbor's roast beef is in their nostrils. So, when you add all these things together, how much is left at the end of the week to be put away in the bank?” 1 Osculatory. From the Chicago Rambler. A story ia going the rounds of the press concern- ing Edwin Booth and a young woman who paid $50 to kiss bim, after which Booth gave the fifty to a poor woman who was the witness of the osculation, This is all very pretty and touching, but we are in- formed by the popular comedian, Mr. John How- son, that for years he has maintained a leading charitable institution in New York by the proceeds resulting frem similar osculatory affairs. Mr. Howson assures us that the offers made him by young and beautiful ladies anxious to kiss him are numerous and lavish. “Of course,“ be contiaues, “*I sbould spurn their advances, but I see no reason why I should not turn the gifts nature has given me to the benefit of my less fortunate fellow creatures." We can readily understand that Mr. Howson's fascinations must be difficult to resist. His elassic- ally chiseled lips, pearly teeth and luxuriant mus tache are indeed a banquet of beauty to captivate the least sybaritic member of the gentle sex. Wedoa little in this line ourselves, and are prepared to accept engagements for church fairs and other charitable enterprises, We take two- thirds of the gate money, and pay one-third to charity.

e ener — > MENDICAWT, | rhe Type of a Process of Evolution Which or is Strictiv Orthedox. The Rev. Dr. Weakly a mendicant? Surely not; there must be some mistake about that. He was one of the best of mea, genial and affable, a fine preacher, a good man, and highly esteemed by ev- . ery one who knew him. His funeral was one of the largest that was ever seen in St. Louis. Bishop Portly preached the sermon, while the services were conducted by the Rev. Dr. Deepthinker and the Rey. Dr. Meauwell. The list of pallbearers contained the names of only two men without D. D. attached to them, and they were millionaires," The casket and the altar were masses of floral offer- ings in beautiful designs, and the cortege was nearly a mile in length. The bright.sun light of the October afternoon flashed on nodding plumes, glit- tered on gilded harness, shone on burnished wood, and shimmered among rustling silks. Yet, it only glorified the apotheosis of the mendi- cant. The Bishop in his sermon* spoke of the man's character as a minister and as a Christian worker. He was a good man, an able expounder of the Word, charitable, humble in spirit, an exemplary pastor, thought no evil, was companionable and lovable. He said nothing distinctly as to his manly character. It was the canonization of the beggar. That red-eyed woman in the widow's weeds — the truest mourner of them ajill—whose riv- en heartstrings were quivering with agony at the rude grasp of Death. and whose delicate frame shuddered as if pierced by cold steel at every thump of the clods, had an unadmitted conscious- ness of the fact deep in her breast. But he was ber all. He was the foundation on which Her hopes» were builded; the oak, no matter how gnarled, | twisted or rotten at the core, to which the tendrils of her affections clung. Even when clerical vest- ments had been laid off; when the dignity of his office had been thrown aside, and all the fictitious strength of pretension and position had been with- drawn, and the creature stood swaying in his own weakness, and clothed only in the shreds of his own neglected manhood, the mists of woman's love were too thick to reveal him in his true character. The same consciousness was there also in others, whe recognized that everything was not as it should have been, but only vaguely, not clearly. Circumstances, traditions and accustomed ways of thinking blind the best of us. Such thoughts were cast aside as ungenerous. He was a good man, of course, was the charitable conclusion. He was humble, certainly, and not proud, as became a minister of the gospel. He was not a poor preacher in the common acceptation of the word. He be- longed to a different class. Was he not pastor of one of the largest and richest congregations in the city? Was he not regarded as one of the leaders of his denomination? Did he not draw a geod sal- ary—some $£,000 a year or so? Could he not preach an excellent sermon on occasion? He was, he did and he could as to each and all of these particulars. How abou* the statement, then, that the Rev. Dr. Weakly was a mendicant? Let us take an inventory of his earthly posses- sions, He had not a ceut of insurance on his life, Oh no, that would be taking thought of the future, and he lived, died, and left his family in the faith that the Lord would provide for hisown. In some way, Heaven knows how. his widow and such of his children who were helpless would be taken care of. This meant that his late congregation or some charitable organization would not allow them to suffer for food and clothes. The casket in which his remains were enclosed was furnished, and in fact all of his funeral expenses were borne, by the congrezation. The shirt on his stiffened back was made for him, with some eleven others, br the Ladies’ Sewing Society. The suit of broadcloth which covered him was a present given him on the last anniversary of his pastorate. His under- clothing and sboes he had bought himself. Step around to his house, a handsomely furnished, miiortable residence. It was furnished when he entered it, and was his free of cost as long as he occupied it. The carpets on which he walked were gifts, the chairs on which he sat were gifts, the slippers which encased his feet were gifts, the books he read were gifts, the pictures on which he gazed were gifts. The neat carriage in his sta- ble and the horse that drew it were gifts. The pro- visions the horse ate were gifts. The man had lived in an atmosphere of gifts. He absorbed the pauper spirit with the air he breathed and the food he ate. This gift-encrusted human being was not the product of a day, ora week, ora year. It re- quired many years to make of him what be was— to render him a member of the highest order in the evolution of pauperism. In his early youth he was set aside for the minis- try. From that day he was a marked individual. He was given a richly-bound Bible. His tuition at school was free. He was given an allowance from the fund for the education of young men for the ministry when he went to college, his father not being over-weaithy. He was given a scholarship’ in addition. One or two benevolent persons, who had heard what a promising young man he was, quietly placed a neat sum of money to his credit annually. He was boosted in every step of his career. To be sure, one summer he spent a couple of months of rare enjoyment as a lion among the ladies of Asbury Park, but that was on money which his father had given him, and which he could use as he pleased, he thought. He stood well in college. He was a young man of excellent ability, but somehow he did not stand among bis fellows as high as he should bave stodd. He did not command the respect he should have commanded. He was conscious in their presence at times of that lack of independence which ena- bles a man to look the world square in the eyes. It was not because he was poor, for there were other young men poorer than he, studying for the bar, the medical profession and the ministry, earning their tuition and their living by bard extra work, and they did not suffer in any one's estimation. He was looked upon by some as _ singularly fortunate. He seemed to command assistance from every direction. Having once started on the road bis pathway was strewn with the flowers of help. They were lotos blossoms, whose sweet fragrance lured him on to sleep and forgetfulness of self - respect. They were deadly upas trees, whose deep and pleasant shade was rank with the poison of pauperism. , His life bad its compensation, though. In the company of those who looked upto him and re- garded him as sacrificing himself for the cause of the Master his pride was high; he assumed the air of a teacher and a leader and drew strong draughts of exhiliarating inspiration. He mentally patted himself on the head and felt that he was doing God's service and a favor to the givers by receiving aid and by being dependent. In the opposite mood the sense of humiliation sometimes became so strong that his manhood rebelied and fine regolu- tions for future effort grew big in his breast. nothing less than the heroic use of the knife could loose him. He was not man evough for this kind of action, e. he fen to consoling him- self with 888 excuses as could be picked up. They were coe pads blackberries in a full season. When he first started on bis ministry he had several poor churchés to preach for, the _ @embined pay of which was not enough to keep _ ~ body and soul torether. A fund for the ald of weak principle, therefore, that doubling himself doubled his capital, be found a sweet, trusting, gentile creature, who doted on the cioth, and married her without a thought of the possible indefinite multi- plication of himself which such a step involved. The congregation prepared a nice little home for the young couple, all complete from cellar to gerret. They started out with a firm resolution to live within their income. The resolution was all right, but the income was all wrong. Tue two did not fit, Before Mr. Weakly had been preaching a grew sbinier and shinier, and shabbſer and shabbier until his congregation became ashamed of him. Then there were consultations among the good people of the church, and much whispering and quiet talk. Finally there was a committee going from door to door and from member to member,and the climax was capped by the pastor's appearing ina brand new suit one fine Sunday morning. The same process was passed through in the case of the garb of the meek little wife. There was begging from door to door on her be- half. Mr. Hardfist, who could not afford to give more than a quarter a week, sent a load of his worst wood to the minister's back yard and felt the ofl of righteousness exuding from every pore for a month afterward. Mr. Tightpurse sent a sack of four to the door, and felt that he merited much of heaven for the act. Was this charity or was it honest wages? It dependson the standpoint. In the minds of the givers there was no doubt that due credit was given for it on the great account book. It never occurred to them for a moment that the amount of the gifts could be added with advantage to the meagre salary. 80 the shabbi- ness periodically recurred and the begging and giving went on until the recipients, from reluctant acceptance, passed to a state of easy expecta- tion. The children came in for the same share of attention. The sensation of paying a doctor’s bill so common to mankind in general was never felt by Mr. Weakly. The world 1 owed him what his salary failed to procure. This evolution, however, was not accomplished without hardship. There was many a heartache between the man of independence, of high purpose and vigorous resolution and the satisfied dependent on the bounty of others. But it was accomplished. The distinction between charity and earnings be- came indefinable and the occasional became the habitual. So when he was called from a small church to a large one, and from a slender salary tothe munifi- cent one his nature was so warped and twisted by practice that it easily adjusted itself to the larger soale. His boys were well educated, dressed well and enjoyed themselves, confident that if the head of the family should fall into the ditch there would be willing hands to lift him out. In fact be had been lifted out of ditches so oftenthat when he was in the neighborhood of one his legs became un- steady and wabbied perceptibly. He expected his purse and his suit under his changed cireum- stances just ashe had expected them before, He whose mission it was to teach strength and firmness of character and right living was weaker than pendence, Was it any wonder that he prayed with one hand lifted up to heaven and the other stretched, palm upward, toward the world? By a simple. process of metonymy he asked of one and expected of the other. It was not so much his fault as the fault of those who had made him what he was. Helpiog the poor and sustaining those who are struggling for a good cause is a very different thing from forcing an honest laborer into the position of a dependent object of favor. He was the victim of misdirected gatas, the product of a false system and a type of the highest order in the evolution of the mendicant. CAM. CRYLLE.

He Thinks the Dispute Will Bring About a Big Split in the Cattle Con- vention in St. Louis in the Fall—How Stockmen's Imaginations Lead Them Astray—Some Details of Life in the Far West. Mr. John Armijo, a prominent ranchman and newspuper proprietor of Socoro, New Mexico, ar- rived in this city and registered at the Lindell Hotei this morning. Mr, Armijo, who has resided in the Territory for a number of years past is well upon all mat- ters pertaining to the cattle interests of the surrounding country, is bitter against the Cherokee and neutral strip leaseholders for seeking to obstruct the trail to Texas. His personal interests are not directly involved, however, and he takes a thoroughly impartial view of the situation, so much so that while his sympathies are with the ‘Colorado and Texas men, he does not hesitate to denounce the methods employed by them to prejudice the Commissioner of Agriculture and Secretary of — Interior against the “The agent of Bureau for this section of the coun- a man named Taylor, I think,” sald 47 to a Posr-Disr ATR reporter this morning. who should be got down upon at the very earliest convenient moment as a dved-in-the-wool partisan and a man incapable of forming an im- and just opinion about the ques- issue between the ‘Texans and the Indian Territory cattle owners. Taylor, as I understand it. has n sent out by the Depart- ment at Washington to inquire into and investigate the cha preferred by one party against the other, an ad to lay a report of the true state of the fight before the heads of the Department. He is a ranch owner in Colorado himself, and very nat- urally sides with the Colorado aud Texas ple. In fact, he has at all times proven bel a sturdy champion of their cause, and an rt which he may make will be colored consi oe ly in their favor. THE CHEROKEE STRIP MEN, should they discover that Taylor is influencing Lamar and Colman, will enter a protest against his report for ‘the reasons just stated, with considerable chance of success. At all events the misfortune of sending out a man to investigate a matter in which he is personally inter- ested will only tend to complicate the dispute and leave its settlement further off than ever before. The Texas aud Colorado people have right on their side, and can obtain justice without endeavoring to force it by such unfair tactics. This fight has been in progress for years t. Conventions of the rival factions have been dtime and again without bringing about an understanding. No man on earth will stick toa thing with such tenacity when he thinks that he is t, and sacrifice as much for opinion's sake, as a Western man.

STATEMENT, The undersigned, a Com- mittee of Directors of the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States, appointed to formulate the views of the Board on the advantages offered by the Society to the public, report: 1st. The Society issues all the approved forms of assur- ance, including Ordinary Life, Endowment, and Ton- tine policies. It is immater- ial to the Directors which form of policy is taken by in- tending assurers. 2d. The Life and Endow- ment forms of policy pro- vide for annual cash divi- dends anda surrender value; are indisputable after three years, and payable immedi. ately after proof of death. 3d. The premiums on a Tontine policy are the same as on the Ordinary Life, but, while the latter is only paya- ‘ble in the event of death, the holder of the Tontine policy has the right to draw the whole of the reserve and the accumulated profits in cash at the end of a stated period; thus, during his own life time, after his producing years are past, he can, with- out any larger premium than on an ordinary policy, secure these Greater advantages. 4th. Experience shows that the return paid in cash on maturing Tontine policies approximates to, or exceeds, the amount of premiums paid by policyholders,s o that the average cost of the as- surance will be only about the interest on the pre- miums. 5th. Tontine policies, like others, are paid in fullin the event of death at any time during the term of the pol. icy, and are incontestable after three years, and paya- ble immediately after due proof of death. 6th. Experience shows that the mortality is lower among Tontine policyhold- ers, as the better lives seek this kindof assurance, which is a considerable source of profit. ith. Tontine policies will be made non-forfditable under the laws of the State, if so desired at the time the assurance is effected. Sth. The Tontine system is fair and just; its accounts are accurately kept, separate from all other business; the funds judiciously invested and improved, and the ac- cumulated profits faithfully guarded and properly ap- portioned. 9th. The Society has since its organization transacted a larger amountof new busi- ness than any. other com- pany, while its new business for the first half of the pres- ent year is $1,750,000 larger than that of the first half of 1884. It has Assets of $60,- 000,000; over $14,000,000 of Surplus, and its ratio of Surplus to Liability is great- er than that of any other 7. en ee i. >

Wing entered suit in the Cireult Court to-day against J. B. M. Kehlor and George W. Updike, to recover $10,56250. Mr. Wing alleges that in December, 1883, he was employed by the defendants to organize and manage a business for the manufacture and sale of flour under the style or title of the Litchfield Milling Com . He states that he was so engaged from the 6th of January, 1884, to the 12th of February, 1885, that the defendants had the full benefit of his skill and experience in the milling business, as well as the control of is will in said busi- ess, that b services for the —.— mentioned wate. were * 35 4 agreed to compensate or his services an r- chased two tote in the town of Litchfield from 2 for $510.

HALLIE’'S MISHAP, Cruel Assault Upon a Young Girl Who Had Been Deceived by a Married Man. A very pretty sixteen-year-old girl named Hallie Courtney called at the office of City Attorney Dyer this morning and, while tears welled from her eyes and her plump and gentle bosom rose and fell with a swift succession of sobs, detailed to him the cruel treatment wkich she had received at the hands of a couple of women. She explained that she had very recently gone to reside in the vicinity of Grand and Lindell avenues, and that she a few days ago made the acquaintance of a dash- ing young barkeeper named Harry Borham, who works ina saloon on the corner of Lindell avenue and Thirty-fourth street. When he first monially, but he swore so loudly and fervently that he was free from incumbrances of all kinds that Hallie relented, and, after a little rsuasion, agreed to r him in a buggy ride to Forest Park Friday ernoon. At the appointed hour Borham was on hand, and together they spent a happy three hours in the park, smear-case and red soda being plentifully supplied by the gen- tleman, who occasionally made tender reference to matrimonial possibilities in the near future, which causen Hallie’s heart to flutter wita joy,as the handsome y barkeeper had already managed to make a very decided impression. She retained her discretion, however. and, beyond her occasionally hee to Borham's demand for just one little —oer- tainly not more frequently than seven times durmg the entire afternoon—she managed to repel his oc- casionally too ardent advances. Finally the SHADES OF EVENING began to falland Hallie insisted upon being re- turned home. Borham -consented, but, when the livery stable 2 — 1 we — — ir] had hardly dismoun rom the buggy wnen — found herself the object of a furious attack by two Italian women who seemed beside themselves with arger. They called her the vilest possibie names and finally drenched her with foul waterand gave hera bad beating. During the altercation Hallie heard enough of what they said to understand that the younger of the two women was the wife of her buggy-ride companion and that the adder one, Cav by name, was his mother- in-law. She tried at one time to make an explana- tion of the innocence of her connection with the buggy ride, but this only added fuel to the flames and caused the viragoes to wind up their tirade with an application of physical violence. After having exhausted their rage uponthe girl the couple turned their attentions to the husband, who stood — by and whose black. curly hair was soon supplying amusement totwo pair of as spiteful hands as were ever animated to violent exertion by tbe powerful impetus of ungovernable jealousy. After having h the young girl’s story, which evidently aroused strauge aud strong emo- tions in the breast of the City Attorney. the latter ordered summonses to be issued against all three offenders and on Monday morning they will be obliged to ana wer or their cruelty to the overcon- fiding Hallie.

Fourth at ‘cet, A CLAKET PUNCH, Two Well-Known BSarkeepers Pummel Each Other Roundly. About 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon Phil Haquette and Jim Eagan, two men well known about town as the leading ents of the art of concocting fancy drinks, indulged in a rough-and-tumble fight on the sidewalk, in front of a Walnut street saloon, which resulted in a free and promiscious distribution of cuts and bruises all over their previously handsome physiognomies. Mr. Ha * alone in the saloon on duty behind the bar, ready to dispense cooling beverages of every description, from a gin fiz with a silvery bubble " ordinary p liebean lager of the amber hue. when Jim an entered some nine years ago, Hagan d a quarrel over a trifling matter and bad bi arose between them which intervention of mutual friends has never successfully .allayed. When they met each other on the street jy ed skyward, aod became suddenly absorbed in ast mical observa- tions until out of each other's sight. IN VIEW OF THE FACT that they studiously avoided each other for nine years, it is the general impression that Jim must have been “bracing up“ con- siderably previous to paying a eo ial call on Phil, and some of his more intimate friends do not conceal the opinion that he was i under the influence of numerous “cocktails” and “old hats. Be that as it may, be bearded the lion in his den with a reckiess disregard of conse- quences. Mr. Haquette greeted the enemy coildiy, wih a stiff nod of the head and an eleva- tion of tbe eyebrows. Overcome by such a display of dignity Jim staggered slightly, clutehed the bar for support, and in faltering tones asked fora certain mysterious mixed drink of a very complicated nature, such a mixture as only the smallest of swell barkeepers would mix. Fun thought Jim was mad, but recognized a method in his madness, which to him bore the semblance of a scheme to expose his inability to compound the fanc drink and thereby ridicwe and b him, he never took a biuff, with an air of confidence gained by long ex- perience in that line ef business, be sailed in on his arduous undertaking. in the course of the opera- uon be paused several times acd sought strength and counsel in a little demijohn which he keeps behind the counter for his private use. By the time the drink was ready Phil was pretty well loaded himself and im was extremely im - patient, not to say angry. Hagan ted the foaming, sizzling decoction to his lips and immediately dashed it out upon the floor, accom- ny the action with a number of forcible ro- marks highly derogatory to tae ‘ORANK WHO MIXED THAT DRINK.” Phil’s reputation was at stake; his ability as a drink-mirer was questioned and his ire was aroused, He came irom behind his bar and en- K in a hb aitercation with his old enemy. They waiked towards the door, “still taixing in loud, angry tones. As they reached the sidewalk Fnil pusued Jim slightly, the iatter retaliated witha lunge in the direction of Phil's phiz, which fell short or it would have knocked him sprawiing on the floor. Then the fun commenced. At it they went, red- hot with r., and striking to hurt every time. Neither being accomplished boxers and unable to guard, tue blows, nearly all counted. ine ishment was terrible. They feil to the ground and Pnil's finger in some unaccountable manner got into Jim's mouth. As Phil subsequently remarked to Sam Burt, 1 got Eagan down and he put my finger in his mouth aod chewed on it. Then I wisned I aado’t knocked him to the ground.” Friends finally appeared on the scene and separated the belligerents. They were placed in carriages and driven home, ehch nursing a sweiled head aad a pair of biack eyes. Haquette NORTHERN PASSENGER RATES, The War on Northern Kates Still Unsettied Railroad Notes.

Lovingston Arrested This Morning on a Serious Charge. — v—-„—᷑ꝶ — He Emphatically Denies the Woman's Assertions, and Says She is a Black- mailer—A Civil Suit Also Instituted Against Him—Other News From Hast St. Louis, N Mr. John B. Lovingston, one of the most influen- tial citizens of East St. Louis, was arrested to-day on a Warrant sworn out bya German woman named Amelia Hein, charging him with committing a oriminal assault, When ‘squire Draggon opened up his court of justice this morning, the woman, who was shabbily dressed, came in, and, after ask- ‘ing him if be was not a Justice of the Peace, told him that she had been made the victim of assault and wanted a warrant the arrest of her assailant. Lovingston, the Squire was startled, but made out the warrant and placed it in the hands of Constable ~ my Shon serve. The Constable at once proceeded to : vingston's nee, à little ond the tern limits of the city, and his ring of the bell being ~ answered qu b he see Mr. the time, but secon joiked the Constable In the par o time, but soon join e Cons u lor.

When they tame before Squire Draggon the latter told Mr. Lovings- ton that ke would placed under a $1,000 bond, and Chief Halloran, who was inthe court at the time, agreed to go security. Immediately after the woman swore out the warrant she went up to Mr. Alex. PFlannigen's law office, and after telling him her story said that it was her intention to institute a suit for $5,000 damages. Mr. Flannigen made out the n apers, which he placed on file with Mr. To anifan, Clerk of the City Court. The woman was seen by a reporter im Mr. Flannigen's office shortly after Mr. Lovingston's arrest, but refused to “ey moe Ape about the The shame she publicity. speaks ms to be grea ; she burst o xi vingston said he was era yg | * that — y would be given to the affair, for, though the woman wasa vile blackmailer, and he knew his many friends would not for an instant believe him guilty, still it was very distasteful to him to be arrested on such a charge. He said that the woman came to bis house on last Thursday, and asked for something to eat. It was given her, and she then asked whether she might sit out on the porch and rest a while. Mr, Lovingston told her she could, and went to water some flowers in his garden. When he returned to the house he found that the woman had disappeared. Going into the house he found her lying on one of the s. and says he shoox her violently and ordered her to leave at once. “She complied,” con- ciuded Mr. Lovingston, and that was the last 1 saw of her or thought about the matter until arrest this morning. When the report of MF. Lovingston’s arrest circulated around town no little excitement was created, and the affair has been the priugipal topic of conversation on the streets a to-day. Later in the day Mr. John B. Lovitigston stated to a Post-Dispatca reporter that Miss Hein's at- torney had offered to withdraw the suit instituted for $5,000, mentioned above, on the payment of A BRUTAL ASSAULT. R. M. Pringel, master mechanic of the Cairo Short Line Railroad, was assaulted by two men, supposed to be A of the road, near the round-house in East St. Louis about 10 o'clock last nightand brutally beaten. His assailants came upon him from ind, and, before he was aware of their presence, one of them dealt him a terrific blow on the back of the head, and felled him to the und. They then administered several kicks on his head and body and made their escape. Mr. Pringel was so badly hurt that he was unable to rise from where the assault bad been committed, but seeing a railroad man some dis- tance away a sbort while afterward, called to him and was assisted to his home, where he now lies in a serious condition. Mr. Pringel attributes the as- sault made on him tothe fact that he has been making some reductions of late in the salaries of the men employed under him, on ac- count of lost time and negligence in their work, He gays that he is almost positive as to who his assail- ants were, and as soon as heis able to leave the house will swear out warrants for their arrest.

RESTORED THE RATES. Sam Clubb Finds Himself Unable to Bulldose the Railroads. e The Poor Shipper, However,! Must Suffer for Awhile—Discriminating in Favor of the Dock Warehouse— Clubb Writes Another Letter. Yesterday morning Mr. Sam Ciubb began to weaken. Yesterday evening he tottered. This morning he gives way, and on what was formerly fully one-half of the business of his East St. Louis lines, he has reduced his rates to the figures that prevailed a week ago to-day. Last Saturday Mr. Clubb thought he owned all the river front and most of the buildiffy lots in East St. Louis. To-day he has suddenly discovered that some one else has an interest in a portion of that property, and that the monopoly which he flattered himself he had secured in the lease he consummated some few weeks since, is not as much of a monopoly as it might be. Mr. Ciubb had conceived the idea that siace he handied all or most of the switching between railroads in Esst St. Louis, when his rates were the same as those of the Bridge and Tunnel Company, he could handle all or most of that business at an advance. In other words. Mr. Clubb had an idea that the railroads were so prejudiced in his favor that they would pay a mium for the privilege of operatin over his tracks rather than patronize Jay Goul The first one ot the roads to open his eyes on this subject was the Chicago and Alton. That road is vitaily interested in Mr. Clubb’s new belt project on this side of me * aud eg 2 =i ye of antagonizing Mr. Clubb, t thought for the interests of its stockholders to cease patron- izing t Mahdi of East St. Louis, when the Bridge Company made it a better offer. When Mr. Clubb tried to bring the business back at the It was then that he began to be alarmed. He saw that all the transfer business between the lines terminating on the East side was floating away from aim. The agents of those lines informed Mr. Clubb that THEY HAD AGREED to give him no more of tueir business, What he did not hear from railroad agents or his East St. Louis representative he read in the Pogt-DjsraTcu and he began to grow very tired of his monopoly. Yesterday evening he backed out ot the stand he had taken with regard to charges between oer and notified agents that hereafter the charge wou be as before tne advance, 81 per car. W. D. Sanborn of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy this morn- ing showed a Post-Dispatom reporter a telegram from his agent on the East side, stating that switch- ing charges nad beeu restored to the old rate of §1 a car. Mr, Sanborn did not know whether this was to apply to all switching or not. The reporter sought out Mr. Gays, the new gen. eral manager for Clubb, who ad remarked on TLaursday that no change had taken place and asked him about the new state of affairs. “Oh, that is on switching between the roads,” said Mr. Gays. ‘That has been in effect two days, now. You see it was originaliy intended taat the rate between roads saouid be 31 @ car.” “That is, where there was competition you were wiiling chat the old rates should prevail?” “Oh, you get out!” responded Ar. Gays, and cut the interview suort. The reporter a few minutes after stood beside the agent of one of the big lines whiie he tele puoned his representative in Kast St. Louis as to rates and busiuess. „How much of the business between roads did the 2 Company do before this advance!“ was the query. „About ali of it, was the response, 7 “Who is doing that switching now?’ “The Bridge and Tunnei Company.“ “W bat are the Clubb charges now?" “Toney were reduced last evening to meet the Bridge Company's rate of $1 a car. An exact copy of the order issued by the local agent on toe East side is as follows: From date the switching change of this company for switching between connecemg roads will be $1 per car. (Signed) 3 Yours, R. N. Borunar, Agent. Jul , . So Mr. Ciubb having learned that an üttempt to squeeze the rai.roads might, and in the past few days had, resulted ia a squeeze for Mr. Clubb, has concluded that the best iuterests of Mr. Clubb would be subserved by letting the powerful and inde- ad cempanies alone for a time and turning his attention to the hapless suipper. Accordingly he piaces the railroads who pay this switching on through busi- ness out of their own pockets, on the old basis and leaves the charges to private tracks or eievators just what they were before. Ihat u in every case but one, for Mr. Ciubb himself has a ceriain interest in business affairs on the otner side of the river and has a finger in several Hast St. Louis mercantile piesa. One of these is the Kast St. Louis Dock and Warehouse Company, of whica Charles Wiggins, a descendant of tue famed origin- ator of Mr. Ciubb's autocracy, is secretary. e Warehouse Company has its office wita that of the Wiggins Ferry Company, and ur. Clubb EXERCISES A MILD SUPERVISION over its affairs. In his anxiety for its welfare Mr. Clubb saw very cleariy that to raise its rates on switching was to injure its trade. Hence Mr. Clubb, tiie switch manipulator, generousl Mr. Clubb, the warehouseman, of the recent charges Mr. * euseman, therefore notified the patrons of his establishment that any switching to and from the dock warehouse would hereafter be $1 a car. Assome of these gen- tlemen own switches of theirown and are among those afflicted by the recent advance in charges they marveled greatly. for to their uninitiated minds it very st that Mr. Clubb could ride two, horses of suck different gaitat one and same time. Still these gentlemen have much yet to learn of Mr. Clubb and his “heads-I-win-tgils-you- ” 7. if _ Clubb, the manipulator of switch- ing charges, is astonish the pub- lic, however, he doing no more in that line than is Mr. Clubb, the letter writer.

The body of a boy about 16 years of age was found last evening in the river at the foot of Bowen street. The body had evidently been in the water several days.

The Coroner's inquest on the body of Arthur Ap- pleby, killed by the wrecking of a passenger train near Bridgeton, on Thursday evening, developed that the accident was caused by a broken switch rod, and the jury rendered a verdict accordingly. F. W. Mott has investigated the complaint con- cerning water being carried away from, and Lin- dell and Bellefontaine Railway stock watered at the Kosicrucian fountain, Third and Washington avenue, and reported that it is a case of much ado about nothing. The Mayor has decided not to interfere. Two police officers were attracted to Seventh and Clark avenue last evening by the scream of a woman. Arriving, they fyund a young girl strug- gling with two men, and the officers took the two to the Four Courts. The giri, who gave her name as Birdie Smith, said that she wasan inmate of a disreputabie house at 315 S.

Wall, who has just returned from nearly a year’s stay in New York City, where he has been conducting the Eastern house of August Gast & Co., reports that the prospects in St. Louis for a good fall trade, as well as present trade, is far more encouraging even than in New York. The increase in the working force of August Gast & Co. of about twenty-five per cent, in spite of low prices and so called “hard times,” is an indication of what can be done by energy and push. Mr. Wall will hereafter be in the office of the St. Louis house, Their New York establishment is at present under the management of Messrs. E. F. Wittler and O. D. Gray, and with them business is steadfly on the in- crease, which is altogether due to the fact that the work furnished by this house, both in the East and the West, is not equaled by that of any other con- cern in the lithographing trade in this country.

From a managerial standpoint, and as far as that is concerned, from any standpoint, the sum- mer season has to yet show any signs of brillian- cy. The down town resorts are keeping open—that is the best that can be said for them, while the gar- deng are doing little better. There has beer nothing of especial interest or merit to attract people, ab- solutely nothing new. and it is little wonder that the public has not rushed out to see what there is. The drawing capacity has been limited, therefore, to those who must have some kind ef amusement. It is refreshing to look forward to something new, and at the same time full of promise, in The Mikado,” which the Ford Opera Company will produce week after next atthe Cave. This is said to be one of the best of the works of Gilbert & Sullivan and will be looked forward to anxiously by the public. There is also a prospect of the production of the Black Hussar,” which has been eminently successful in New York. Uhrig'’s Cave.

It has been popular for two sea- sons past, but has not yet been played to death. The castanet in the last act never fails to make a hit, and none can dance it better than Blanche Chapman.

After the disad vantages of the opening had been overcome to a considerable extent, Olivette“ has been running smoothly at Schnaider’s. Several of the performers appeared with extremely limited opportunity for preparation, and hence coulda not do justice to themselves, but improvement has been marked from the beginning. Mr. W. H. Reiger has been a strong addition tothe company. He hasa sweet, sufficiently strong voice and sings in good form. By special request the Thomas Opera Com- pany will revive “Chimes of Normandy” Sunday afternoon and night at the Standard r. Reiger is credited with a hit in the tenor role in New York. “Olivette” will be given at the Garden for the rest of the week. The Casino. Next week, commeacing Sunday afternoon, Alice Oates and her burlesque company will play a re- turn engagement at the Casinoin a new version of “Robin Hood; er, The Bandit Prince.“ The com- pan y is composed of twenty-five artists led by Alice Oates herself and Alice Townsend,who proved to be a popular favorite at the last appearance of the company. Among the others are Kittie Sweeney, Louise Leonard, Ida Ross, Pauline Scott, Mamie Rostelle, Jas. Tierney, Martin Emerson and Thos, Ducrow.

The contrast between her Leicestershire home and Drury Lane isa very striking one, and it is difficult to say whether Alwina Valleria loves more dearly the calling of her voice or the congenial pleasures of a country life.

From the Dramatic News. A correspondent, with landable desire for informa- tion, asks us to explain the difference between opera bouffe and comic opera. The difference is about the same as the differenee between burlesque and farce and legitimate comedy. The chief distinction is, perhaps, im the story of the two different kinds of opera. The opera bouffe deais with actions and incidents that are always eccentric, improbable and often impossible. The best types of opera bouffe are those produced by the modern French school, inoluding Offenbach, Lecocq, Vas- seur, Varney and others. Most of Offenbach’s operas— Belle Helene, Perichole,“ “Orpheus,” “Grande Duchesse, etc., are genuine opera bouffe; so are La Fille de Mme. Angot,” “Girofle Girofia,” “Le Petit Duc,” Wes Mosquetaires au Convent,” and scores of others. A connecting link between opera bouffe and legitimate comic opera is found in the works of the Vienna school, Strauss, Mil- locker, Genee, ete. Infinitely superior from a musical point of view, the steries of their operas present extravagant, sometimes improbable, but never impossible situations. We need only name a few: “Merry War,” “Queen’s Lace Handkerchief,” “Beggar Student,” Black Hussar,” *‘Nanon,” and others. which have delighted New York during the last four or five years. Gilbert & Sullivan's operas occupy a piace of their own, and might best classed aS musical extravagaozas. ‘luey are certainly net. opera bouffe or comic opera. itimate comic opera is of a character superior to the styles mentioned.

J., July 18—The contest over the wills of the late Thomas Barbour is at an end. Thomas Barbour was a millionaire and leading manufacturer of this city. He died in Ireland on one of his trips. He left two wills, one in this country and the other m Ireland. The Irish will was contested inthe Dublin courts by the widow and son of the deceased. This document, it was claimed, was gotten up by interested and unscrup- ulous persons, but, notwithstanding this, it was ad- mitted to probate. By the Irish will, Mrs. Barbour was to have received an annuity of $5,000, and one- third of the estate, According to the American will, Mrs. Barbour wasto have recerved $5,000 a year. Mrs. Barbeur and son claim that the Irish will was not the inte ution of ber husband. Mra. Barbour now refuses to become a beneficiary under this will. By this action she practically rejects a quarter of a million of dollars, because she does not think that her husband in his sane moments de- sired her to have this money. She thinks that he wanted their son William to have it. Mrs. Bar- bour has just arrived ia Paterson from Ireland, and her sen William will arrive on M Mrs. Barbour has just signed a document, of free will and without being solictited, DECLINING TO RECEIVE any of the money under the Irish will, and trans- ferring it all to ber son William, Mrs. Barbour will only take the annuity of $5,000 lefs her by the American will, which she regards qs the real will of her husband. There isa great contrast between the action of Mrs. Barbour another person in the case, Digby Johns, whois called by the Dublin journals the arch conspirator of the Barbour will case. According to the testimony in Dublin courts he was acquainted with Mr, Barbour and saw that the latter was approaching his end. Johns learned that there was an American will and its purport. It was then shown that he set about to induce Mr. Barbour to make another will. This he succeeded doing. Johas admitted himself on the itness stand that when - Mr. Barbour made the so-called Irish will he could not write. Mr, Barbour was so nearly dead on the day, January 2, last, that he was iu a state of un- consciousness. Mr. Jelins wrote the will and on it he set aside $5,000 for himself, and also was to be one of the executors. By this he would snare in the fees for executing the will. The testimony | showed that he read the will to the dying mau and then asked him to sigu it. This the dying man could not do, and Johns, as was testified, SEIZED BARBOUR’S HAND, and with it traced the name of the testator. Johns offered this will fer prohate and swore that it was the last wili of Thos. Barbour. This will was con- tested. Mrs. Barbour, tae principal beneficiary, joined. in the contest. Johns got the will througn the Courts. The money fer paying of the legatees under the Irish wiil will be raised in this country. T ends this celebrated internatisnal will case. own Are You Going to Chicago?

Retail Prices of Sundry Supplies Cheer the Inner Man. Business at the market during the past week has been very dull. The meat dealers say that they have done nothing at all, the butter dealers are complaining, and the vegetable stall keepers report that though they have hada considerable number of purchasers for their plants, the prices of every- thing in their line at presentaresolow that they derive very little profit. All the marketmen ascribe the present stagnation in business to the exceed - ingly warm weather. It is on this account that comparatively few persons make their purchases at the market, preferring rather to patronize the corner meat and vegetable shop than to make a trip down town in the broiling sun. The vegetable peddlers who visit the residence portion of the city early in the morning are doing a thriving business, That The Siege of Paris, opera.

From a Rochester, N. Y., Telegram. Ata rehearsal of “The Bohemian Girl“ by the Dora Wiley Opera Company at the Academy of Music on the morning of July 6, two well-known city gambiers entered the theater bythe stage entrance, and, going under the stage, passed through the orchestra door and took seatsin the auditorium just back of the orchestra rail. They were under the influence of liquor,and began smoking and passing comments upon the efforts of the performers. The orchestra leader finally re- quested them to leave the theater, and in passing out one of them remarked, addressing Miss Wiley on the stage: “Good-bye, Dora, dear!” This greatly incensed the singer. She dashed down the stage stairsafter the two men, followed by the entire company. The gamblers were armed with heavy canes, and none of the attaches of the theater ner the male members of the company gave any evidence of a desire to attack them for their insult. Miss Wiley oyertook them in a narrow hallway leading into the lobby. With her face aglow with anger, she advanced to one, threw aside his cane with her left hand, while with ber right she landed a blow under the gambler's ear that staggered him. She then looked for the other, but he had gone, and she weut back and finished her rehearsal Stuart Robson's Mistake. While Robson and Crane, the comedians, were playing an engagement iu this city recently, they made up a party of a dozen actors, among whom were several stars besides themselves, who were playing at other theaters, to visit the Forrest Home for aged actors, at Holmesburg. Stuart Robson originated the scheme, and actedas pilot to the party. After he had made some inquiries as to the location of the home, the party went to the Broad street station and boarded a train for Helmesbusg Junction. On alighting Robson led the way up the maple grove lane that leads to the home, but instead. Ot tur ningito the left he kept straight ahead. After the party had walked about three-quarters of a mile, Robson stopped in front ot a handsome brown —.— mansion, leg hag nw appeinted unds, supposing it to e Forrest Home. * * you sure this ig the place, Rob?” asked ane.

He says: Iam sorry to say that the base-bal! puree are beginning to behave sg like they did some ten years ago. when their actions almost killed the game, and it was only through the radical measures taken at that time that the sport was preserved. If you remember the game had been growing then and was the one thing talked of allover the land. Players were receiving the most extravagant sala- ries, and so brisk was the competition for a good layer that no sooner had one season commenced an club managers begam bidding against each other for the favorite ones’ services, for the next year. This had its natural result. The men began to think that they were the salt of the earth and could do just as they pleased. Discipline soon gave way, andthe players suited themselves in their behavior. Notwithstanding the enormous salaries paid them they did not remain honest, and sold themselves to any, gambler who would buy. It began to be a matter of common talk that the games would go just the way certain men bet their money. The natural co ences followed, the game fell into disrepute, à d but very few people wereto be found who cared to witness the matches. see This ts precisely the present state of affairs. The impression is once more beginning to prevail among players that they are of more importance than the game, and a release has no terrors for them, as the gentleman states, as they know other clubs stand ready to engage them as soon as eligible. They do not even propose to aliow new players to come into the business, and when an amateur esters the professional ranks it is the exception for him to receive the same treatment at the hands of his colleagues as an old-timer would. Indeed, the Brooklyn management found it necessary to im- Pose vy flnes on some of the players for this very reason, and numbers of similar instances could be cited, Then again, as the Post-Dispatcu has remarked before, there are entire y too many drinking men in the profession, and the appear- ance of drunken players on the field is enough to take away even a craug's interest in the game. ess Besides.“ the gentleman continues, “there is a belief, shadowy now, it is trus. but liable to spread that dishonesty has crept into the ranks again, an that some of the contests this season have not been won and lost on their merits. The press in the leading base-ball eities in the Union have asserted and seemingly proved their assertions that players on various clubs have acted not only suspiciously, but have deliberately thrown games. Open charges have been made, and not contradicted. that certain clubs have ‘hippo- dromed;’ that is, they have lost games in order to draw large crowds tne following day." Then, again, there is the umpire trouble. Men who are sup to be chosen because of their honesty and fair-mindedness are continually being hissed by spectators at the games because of rank decisions, a great many of them, we are sorry to say, seemingly intentional ones. One umpire lets his private and personal spite overpower him; another says he will not be responsible for a decis- ion, ywhen he receives a sulary for this very thing an tly, but not leastly, members of the clu are wed to umpire games in the absence of reg- ular umfires, and in two cases out of three it is safe to say their decisions are nothing more nor less than robbery. eee All these things have an unsavory odor, and un- less radical measures for cerrecting these evils are at once proposed and carried out, it will not be long fore managers will be cempelled to go out of the business use no one will dare to see the game. The American Association. The St. Louis Clubs has nothing to do but to re ceive the other club in the Association and credit itself with a victory after each e. While the record of games lost remains sfationary that of games won continues to increase. The race for second place is growing more interesting every day, however, as) bow there are three clubs, all of whom have hed the honor at one time or another, At present Cincinnati is there, but Louisville and Pittsburg are tied for third and buta game be- hind. Pittsburg with her new pitcher may play havoc from this on, but Louisville and Cineinnati will contest every inch of ground, so to speak.

At the Buffalo meeting ef the board of officers of the League of American Wheelmen the definition of an amateur was unanimously adopted: An amateur is one who has never engaged in, nor assisted in, nor tayght cycling or any recognized athletic exercises for money or other remuneration, nor knowingly competed wh or again#t a pro- fessional for a prize of any description.’ To pre- vent misunderstanding in interpreting the above, the League draws attention, to the following ex- planation: “A cyclist forfeits his right to compete as an amateur, and thereby becomes a professional by (a) engaging in cycling or any other recognized athletic exercise, or rsonally teach- ing, training or coaching any other on therein, either aa a means for obtainipg a ivelihood or for a stated bet, money, prize or for ate money. (b) Competing with or pace-making or or having the pace made by a professional iu public or for a prize. (o) Selling, realizing upon, or otherwise turning into cash any prize won by him. (d) Tais rule does not apply to the teaching of the elements of bicycling solely for the purpose of effecting the sale of a bicycle. The League recogn'zes ag athletic exercises ai! those sports un- der tne jurisdiction of tue Nationa! Association of Amateur Athletes of America, viz: Runniug, walk- ing, jumping, pole leaping, putting the shot, throw- ing the bammer, throwing of weigats, tug-of-war, and also rowing, boxing, sparring, lacrosse, polo, roller and ice skating. Tae rule is an improvement on the old one, and the same as that recently adopted relation to the riding under a false name. It was theugat by the board tuat this offense was not of sufficient magnitude to merit such a grave punish- ment as to make the wrong-doer a professional, and thus debar him from ever again participating in amateur events. In place of this extreme pen- alty, it ig proposed to bar the competitor from the track for such a leugtùh of time as may seem fitting to the racing committee. — Can't Find an Opponent. Wallace Ross, the New York sculler, recently was interviewed in Boston. He aud Hamm are to row against Conley and Courtney at an early date.

What do you think of them!“ “Well,” he answered, quickly, Tul row Conley five miles for $1,000 a side; or ltl row Gaudaur five miles.

Case’s Great Influence. A sentimental story about Mr. J. I. Case is going the rounds of the press. It is something about his kissing his wife whenever he wins a horse race. It is all very beautiful and touching. Over in Michigan there is an old sport by the name of Jake Goodspeed. He was selling poolsat one of the country race tracks last year when Mr. Case put in an appearance. “How does it happen,” asked Goods „that you are buying pools against your own horse?’ To tell the truth,“ replied Case, he is in bati form, and I don’t believe we will put him through for all there isin him.” 80, so," said Goodspeed, softly, then I'll be prepared.

Lens Swallow's History. Last week Valley Sell, a Cambridge City saloon- keeper, who owned a half interest in Lena Swallow, the trotting mare that took flrat money in the 2:28 class at Chicago a couple of weeks ago, also at South Bend, East Saginaw and Detroit, received a telegram from Charley Frost, her owner, at Detroit, asking if he should sell her for $4,500, and de re- sponded Tes. Lackey, who drove ber in these races, went through, taking sick horses home, aud ssid the sale was consummated, but did not name the buyer. Two years ago Sheriff Gorman virtually bought the mare near East Germantown of Dr. Swaliow for $225, but when be wend after her the re- served her until after 1 Gorman kicked” and left her, as his deputy, Lon Lantz, did Buffalo Girl, which has since been sold for $12,000, Later, | Frost dropped on to her and bought her for that money, nne sell her ata profit for a roadster, and he offer her to Tom ns, & Richmond liveryman, for Within the year she showed big promise, and he sold a half interest in her to Sell for $800, which. amount she won for him, Daudy Boy, which paced at the Chicago meeting, was slo found on 3 farm near 2 tity by Frost, who bought bim for $200 and so him for $1,000 within a year.—(Plaindealét. The Three Greatest Oarswien. Mr. John A. St. John of this city, backer of Jacob G. Gaudaur, and an oarsman himsef, says the three greatest oarsmen in the world to-day are Ed- ward Hanlan, John Teemer and Jake Gaudaur. Tue race in Australia in which Hanlan was defeated by Beach he considers no fair test of the relative merits of the men, as Beach had by far the best course, which enabled him to take the lead easily and hold it. He would not hesitate to match Gaudaur against Beach if the Australian should come to this country, As between Hanlan and Teemer, he considers Haulan the more finished sculler and the better man of thet in a three- mile race, For a longer distance than three miles, he thinks Teemer would prove a hard man for Han- lan to beat. Gaudaur he considers as fast a sculler as there isin the world for a mile and a quarter or a mile anda half. He has shown tunis in his races; but Hanlau and Teemer he acknowledges are better meu tban Gaudaur at the longer distance, He would not be afraid to match Gaudaur and Teemer against any two men in the werld to row in double sculls. Mr. St, John’s opinion of Teemer has vastiy improved since last winter. The Vigneaux Proe. The.project of bringing Maurice Vigneaux, the great French expert, to this cquatry ia the fall, of which George Slosson is the promoter, seems in a fair way of meeting with success, the roomk rs througheut the country having set the ves about the task with a will, and already a large sum has been subscribed for the purpose, The leading | manufacturers have also interested themselves in the scheme, and Mr. Collender has himself written several letters to Vigneaux in regard to the matter. Said a leading roomkeeper yesterday: “Iam in favor of bringing Vigneaux here at almost any price that he may demand, be it of course not too extortiouate. He is one of the greatest billiard players of the age, and a tournament iu which he schaefer and Slesson would engage could not fail in being a grand financial success, and would do a great deal to stimulate the love of the game and make it even more popular than it isnow. That he will consent to com is my opinion, and if he does ou will see one of the grandest exhibitions of the billiard-playin art ever witnessed in America. — [Chicago Herald, Coming Bicycle Bvents.

ZANESVILLE, Onto, July 14.—The scull race be- tween Moniger of Allegheny and Clator of Wheeling, for $500 a side, came off on the Muskingum course this evening and was witnessed by over 10,000 people. A train of ten cars rau the full length of the course on the Columbus and Muskingum Valley Railroad andthe passengers witnessed the race from start to finish. It was the first race ever held here. George Weisgerber acted as referee. At the word both men got away, Moniger leading half a length and pulling a 32 stroke. At the quarter mile both men were pulling a 80 stoke and Clator had made up the disadvantage and forged ahead and led that distance all the way home.

At the double horizontal bar exercise Charlie Willis, Blair Stone and Joe Arata were practicing some new and di- ficult feats, one of which, called the “Under-swing to a cat-hop,” and kick off with a pirouette to the next bar, is a very dashing exercise. A trio of bezinners, consisting of Quintus Price, Steph Von Phul and Will Baumgartuer, were ex- ceedingly active, and used the pulley, striking bag and parallel bars. They also tried rope climbin and high jumping. They were coached by W. Barron, who states they are clever and easily man- aged pope. Barron says he will have them in a pyramid act for the next exhibition. The Missouri Gymnasium can boast of one thing: that is, it is the oldest chartered American Gymnas- tic Club in the United States, dating from 1857. The Rev. Dr. Boyd, alluding w it in a lecture delivered by him on the subject of Physical Culture. stated: The Missouri Gymnasium was organized ia 1857 by a few clerks, who rented a small room in the old City Buildiugs, Commercial alley, Its apparatus was limited. The first monthly report of its treas- urer showed the gross receipts to be $18, expenses $16 50, balance $1 50, which had been joaned at 10 per cent interest, with good security. The mem- rship increased so rapidly that they had to pro- cure a larger hall and better apparat at norta- west corner of Fourtu street and ashington avenue. But the noise made by jumping and dropping dumb-bells becoming offensive the other occupants of the building, they were com- poly to seek new quarters at Fifth and Olive, aud for the same reasons again at Seventh and Was- ington avenue, But the same trouble followed them; the other tenants not appreciating physical culture to such a degree as to put up wiih the nose, The institution must die or some piace on the ground floor must be fouad where the noise would disturb nobody.“ A STOCK COMPANY was formed, and through toe efforts of Joshua Cheever, Jas. C. Maginuis and a few other citizens, they were euabled to secure on le ground their present building, which is the most thoroughly equipped gymnasium inthe West. It is now nearly turty years old. One of the “leading citwens was once approached to take stock in it, He pooh- poohed the matter, anawering: Such things are sbort-iived aud will event gal play out. if the gentieman will note this one, be will acknowledge he was mistaken in his prediction, Diamond Dust.

He was struck by a pitched bali under the eye and iojured 80 se- verely that the eyeball was forced from the socket and hung down on hig cheek. Though eventually Galvin fully recovered from the injury, the remem- brance of that day is still so fresh in his mind that his self-possession invariably deserts him on step- ping to the plate, experienced player that he is, Wheel Whims.

Aside from the fact that they would like to have a lieu- tenant-colonel for the regiment as soon as possible, very little interest is taken in the election by them, and the lucky man will be chosen almost unani- mously with little or no opposition.

CHa, July 17.—There is every rea- son to suppose that it was sim ply a stock · jobbing scheme that rumor about Phil Armour's prebable election as president of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railgoad. The directors and the rest of them went off on their trip, and on the strength of the rumor St. Paul stock went up. But now, as you may observe, it is tailing off again. “I can hardly imagine,” said one of the party who went on the trip,“ that Armour could think of taking the presidency of a railroad with all the other business he has on hand.” It would be surprising if Phil Armour were elected president of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad. Many of his staunchest allies are in Milwaukee, home ot that famously diplo- matic president, Mr. Alexander Mitchell. Plankin- ton, his friend and business partner, lives there, too. He is one of the richest men in those parts. He adopts the same policy as Armour making friends. Quite different the methods of this kiag business man from those of the a?erage monopo- list. Armour has never sought anything among railroads, except rates. Those he has usually got —at bed-rock figures, too. If he becomes a raii- road magnate it will be almosta reversion of his previous career. He has deen the head of a pri- vaie business—the biggest in the world—doing a business of $30,000,000 a year. Private concerns usually have a soul; corporations, never. Armour has a big one. Every man in his employ thinks Phil Armour the biggest man on earth and one of the best, There are eighty clerks in his office and every one of them gets a $10 gold-piece for Christ- mas. W hen one of them gets in late of a morning Armour simply looks at him and then glances at his watch, and the young man gets down on time next day. eee Rain or shine, winter or summer, 6o'clock in the morning sees Phil Armour sitting bolt upright m his carriage with his arms folded, scurrying down Prairie avenue towards his stock-yards packing- house and thence te his business, where he lands at 7:30. His horses are thin, long-legged bays—and they fly. Armour himself is portly and broad- faced, with mutton-chop whiskers and a uare ized dur the night.

New Yors, July 18.—The report to President E. B. Harper by John A. McCall, jr., Insurance Super- intendent of New York, after an exhaustive ex- amination of the Mutual Reserve Fund Life As- ciation, just made public, presents a very favorable exhibit. The assets are shown to be over $1,000,- 000, with a surplus of $526.50392. Commissioner McCall’s report shows that the setting apart of 25 per cent to the reserve fund “has been faithfully complied with,” and that this reserve fund is $426,950 97; that the association is legally incorporated, that all its contracts are valid, and that the agreements with its officers provide for, and their compensation is paid solely out of annual dues. Supt. McCall reports the association exercises a strict super- vision over the payments of its death ma, a has always paid its approved death claims in full, and that of nearly two millions dollars received by the association, not a dollar has been div from its lawful purpose. The report of the special medical examiner, Dr. John J. White of New York, appointed by the superintendent, says, thatthe medical department has gradually developed a system of medical examinations and review jwhich is at east equal te any in use by any other lite insurance company or asscciation, and in conclusion says, that well deserved credit is due to the association for the present perfected system which its medical bureau has attained. Superin- tendent McCall states that every facility was afforded by the officers of the association to assist the examiners in making an exhaustive tion. The report, in brief, shows that the affairs of the Mutual Reserve Fund Association have been efficiently administered and honestly conducted; that all its just claims have been promptly paid in full, aud that iu the internal administration of affairs great care is exercised in all the departments of the Asso- ciation, At the regular quarterly meeting of the directors of the Mutual Reserve Fund Association, just held, the Executive Committee reported, that during the last quarter, ending June 80, 3,870 mem bers were received, covering insurance to the amount of $14,826,500, making a grand total of insurance written since the date of organization, $140,621,500, which is an unprecedented success. Its new business for the first six months of 1885 exceeds that for the same period of 1884, by more than $13,000,000, all ot which has been fur- nished to the members at one-third the usual cost. The last bi-monthly call, which included every claim that could possibly approved, has already produced upward of $300,000, and the death claims paid by the Association within the past three months approximates one-quarter of a million dol- — being atthe rate of $3,000 for each business J.

Se veral Captains and Lieutepants have fallen into the habit, of late, of drilling their mea in the Arm- ory Hall on evenings other than their regular drill evenings, to the annoyance of companies that have the right to the hall for that evening, and in direct violation of the Armory rules, which expressly pro- hibit anything of the kind. On Thursday evening, Company K's regular drill night, Captain Veazy Walsh of the Treadways fergot hi and marcned his company into the hall. While he was putting it through the manual of arms the officer of the day entered an objection to his company's drilling in the hall. On that evening Captain Walsh gracefully withdrew from the scene. Another violation of the rules which was noticed and checked by a vigilant officer of the day was a little ruse employed by the astute Busch Zouaves to obtain credit fora certain number of men at drill, when in reality they failed to drill at all. The Zoos would file. into their reoms and lounge about the building on their regular drill nights, but neyer even as much as touch a gun, and report to the officer of the day that so many men were at drill. Trey have done it several times since their return from the East, and when it is remembered that company is paid eut of the citizens’ fund in proportion to the number of men at drill on regular drili nights, the injustice of their game to the other companies will be seen. Last Thursday night the officer of the day informed their captain that he would report the Zouaves as so Many men present, but none ing. Tne effect of theremarx was appreciated, and will doubtiess bring about the desired re- sult, THE BUSCH ZOUAVES. The phenomenal success ot the Busch Zouaves has given a stimulus to their peculiar style of drill all over the country,and in a number of cities which they have visited, their exhibitions have been followed by the formation of Zeuave com- of time and then men Moran, O. Scudder, W. B. Shields, Tho . Davitt, H. Cummin Fatson, E. Cook, O. Bowles, T. Deming, F. Mar- Land J. Ellard. W. Thomas was chosen secre- tary and the French Zouave tactics adopted to drill by. The company will begin drilling at once, with the-view of preparing themselves to entering competitive drilis against che Buschs. COOL. MEIER feels atrifie sere at the actionof a number of + officers staying away from the Armery last Satur- day afternoon, when ordered tobe present with their commands to participate ia the march and sham battle. On Thursday last he caused a short note to be sent to their ad conduct of Rev. ill meeting, First Christian Church, Seventeenth and Olive streets, by Mr. Dan K. Shields. He will speak in the evening at 8 o’clock at the same place. At the Third Congregational Church, to-morrow morning, Rev. William C. Stiles wiil preach on „Christ Our Sanctifler.“ Weather permitting, there will be an outdoor méeting in the evening at 7 o'clock, the topic for consideration being, The. Faith Once Delivered to the Saints.” At 10:50 a. m. the sermon to the children will be given. The services at Pope's Theater, which will com- mence to-morrow everfing under the H. 8. Williams of the North Presbyterian Church, give promise of being y ap by those for whom the labor is undertaken. Mr. has been making energetic efforts to carry the venture to a success- ful fruition, and as his aggressiveness and persist- eucy are there can be little doubt that he will succeed. — The Southwestern Methodist, although the only rel sheet to take up the gospel tent work this week, contains a gratuitous insinuation against the laborers in that fleid of sacrifice and unpleasant duty. It doubts that many people are drawn to the church by these meetings, but admits if they don't do anything else that they at least “suggest a method of mission work in our cities which ought to be v~ 4 used. Messrs. n, Gary, Deering and Rev.,Mr. Watts ought to feel thankful that there is at least that much recegnition of the good they think they are doing. Rev. Sam Jones says: Any man who eats three square meals and sleeps eight hours a day, like me, can't help 5 good bealth.“ This statement — to Lewis E. Kline of the Baptist Fublica- tion House, the skeptical Baptist expresses his doubt in this way: If he does do that he must have to preach on a full stomach, and he must be a | real unny evangelist to do that. By wor until late he couldn’t get 8 hours sleep unless by ping till 8 o’cluck, which would place his dinner—a,square meal, he says, at 2 p. m., and his supper between 7 and 8 p. m. This weuld com- ihim, don't you see, to preach on a fairly well led abdomen,which would certainly saock the old belief in the efficacy of fasting in induing one with spiritual power. The sermons by Rev. Calvin S. Blackwell at Central. Chrisuan Church, expository of the history and claims of the several denomuirations, are attracting considerable attention on account of the bold manner in which he analyzes each sect. For anew preacher in a met- ropolitan church, Mr. Blackwell is advancing rapidly as adetermined supporter of his peculiar views. He evidently has not much use for diplo- has not learned the use of theological kes from the shoulder, a statement that will be borne out by the evidence of the members of the Ey cal A who tried to push the Sunday question through last spring and ran up against a very stiff and unyielding sermon. of Mr. Biackweil’s. macy and boxing gloves.

If one member of the body suffers the whole is in pain, but I believe in the end it will be for the good of the people. General busi- ness, I think, is improving. Of course we have no statistics to tell exactly, but by a sort of sympa- thetic feeling throughout the world of commerce aod industry a man in my positioncan touch the puise of things. There is less business done to-day on credit and more for cash than a while ago.

I am not prepared to say positively that such is the case, but this much I am ready to state, as the resuit of recent talks and observations in New York and Boston. Hastern capital, forever looking toward new conquests, has its eye on Mexico, and only awaits a turn in the wheel of fortune to pre- cipitate itself in direction. d and Hunt- ington are the in the movement and other adventurers are sure te follow. The absolute uncertainty of settlement between the New Vork Central and vauia lines and the moral certainty of the uselessness of the general pool and tue acknowledged continual cutting in the subsidiary pools, such as the Onio River pool and others, make it desirable for railroad investors to turn their aitention elsewhere, and Mexico seems the most accessible point. Hence it is fair to infer that whatever influence, favorable to themselves, Mr. Gould and other Eastern operators may be abie toexert on the Mexican Government tuey will very surely exert.” CATTLEMEN ALARMED.
