Late last night when the casket was opened, the body gave forth to the senses no evidence of other than favorable conditions.

Undertaker Merritt Declares Grant’s Body to be in Perfect Condition, By Telegraph to the Post-Digpatch. New Yorn, Aug. 1.—Stephen Merritt sat yester- day in his office at 210 Kighth avenue looking over a business dispatch from his son, who has charge of General Grant’s body at Mt. McGregor, When your correspondent asked him if he had seen the reports that decomposition had begun to manifest iteelf in the face of the dead General. The frst line of the dispatch in his hand read; “General Grant’s body is in beautiful condition at 5 a. m.“ “There,” said Mr. Merritt, is a complete ausw er to your question and a positive refutation of the reports that the body is decomposing. I do not know what the basis of the Sun's report is, but if it comes from the actual observation of the reporter it is readily explained bow éasily a person might be deceived; General Grant’s body lies in a darkened room under a heavy canopy. aod his face is seen through two plates of heavy glass. The arrangement of the canopy is such that at times heavy shadows are thrown on the face, which, to a person giving only a passing glance at it, might easily be mistaken for PERMANENT SPOTS OF DISCOLORATION, I have been expecting to hear of the unsatisfactory condition of the body befere, and am surprised that it bas not »ppeared before. Mr. Holmes of Sara- toga was the undertaker who was first called to attend Gen. Grant's body. I supplanted him by the direction of the family, he having been selected only to take temporary charge until my arrival. Mr. Holmes didn’t want to go when I got to Sara- toga, and this may account fer the report of the decomposition. The body is perfectly embalmed, and it’s one of those cases, fortunately, where the work has been successful to an unexpected degree, and there is every reason to believe thatif it was necessary the body could be kept for six months and it would be as perfect thenasit is now. The public may rest assured that they will have an opportunity to see the General's face, and that they will see it in a most life-like condition, with no sign of the pain and suffering that he endured during the last sickness, and without any marks of decom- position.” . COMPLETING THE PROGRAMME. Gen. Hancock Overwhelmed With Appli- cations for Positious in the Procession. New York, August 1.—Applications for po sitions in the funeral cortege, and offers of personal ser- vice for staff and other duties connected with the military escort onthe occasion, continue to pour into Major-General - Hancock's office on Governor's Island, and have necessitated the employment of several extra clerks and the ap- pointment of Lieut. Lumley as aid on the staff to assist Capt. Young and Lieut. Allen in filing and recording the mass of correspondence. Admiral Jevett landed from a steam launch at 11:15 this morning, and had a long interview with Major-General Hancock in relation to the disposition of the naval forces under the Admiral’s command, A prominent official stated the various men-of-war would be stated at different pointe in North River and fire salutes during the progress of the funeral procession. The matter of the marines and sailors parading asa portion of the escort is not yet settled. A dispatch was receivedon behalf of President Cleveland asking for 4 POSITION IN THE LIVE. It is intended that the President and Vice-Presi- dent, with the members of the Cabinet, and also ex- Presidents and ex-Vice-Presidents and members of their Cabinets, will be invited by the Grant family to participate. Col. Fred Grant, on the application of Gen. G. Meade Post No. 1. G. A. R, of Phila- delphia, that they be allowed thé privilege of the closing services, granted the request, but oa the appeal of the Rev. Dr. Newman for the same privilege, Col Grant and Rev. Dr. Newman went to Gen. Hancock's representative and stated it was the wish of the family that Dr. Newman be granted his request. The com- mittee from Philadelphia reported the ro- vecation of the order to their post, who feel sore over the change, and have written to Gen. Hancock, asking him to reconsider the matter. The General has referr ed the whole matter back to Col. Fred Grant. As the ceremonies of the G. A. R. immediately precede the religious closing services of Rev. Dr. Newman, the matter will likely ‘be allowed to remain as at present settled. es Simon Cameren's Message. Lanoaster, PA., August 1.—Gen. Simen Cameron sent the following telegram to-day: Dona Farm, Lawoasten Counry, Pa. To Col. Fred D. Grant, Mt. McGregor, N. T.: I am glad to know that Gens. Johnston, Buckner and Gordon are going toact as pall-bearers with Sherman and Sheridan. Your father’s prayer for peace to his country has been answered and the last bitterness of the war wiped out forever. (Signed) Smom CaMERON. — ——— — Leclere’s Painting. CmO, August 1.—Forty members of the Cal umet Club of this city have subscribed §200 each for the purcnase of the painting of General Grant by Leclere. It has been in the possession of the Calu- met Club since it was executed, and it will remain in Chicago. New York parties recently offered $10,000 for the painting, and the club had about de- cided to accept the offer. It isa full length portrait of Grant, and the General has said of it that it is the only likeness of himself which he considered good. It was completed three years ago, shortly before the death of the artist. Memorial Exercises at Augusts. eel Ra 3 Pane, * ee 1 n 250 * Fy 8 ales , 4 . ae « Tranater GARLAND'S orion.

The famous rules of the Marquis of Queensberry were put to a practical use at 12:30 p. m. to-day in * room on tbe third floor of 806 Olive street, the principals being two woll- knowe clerks in the Assessor's office.

Bpecial Cabiegram tothe Post-Dispatch. Lowpon, August 1.—Tbere is a distinct and al- most unprecedented upbeaval in all parts of the political world here. The situation may be almost described as volcanic. The open split inthe Con- servative ranks is due to the combinatien against Lord Randolph Churchill, whose speech against Earl Spencer and supporting Parnell gave great offence and alarm throughout the country. I learn THE FOLLOWING OCCURRENCE in the Commons: When Churchill proposed to visit Liverpool he met Mr. Whitley, a member for Liverpool, in the lobby, and said: & What train do we take?" Whitley replied: I am not going.” “Why not?”’ “Because, I disapprove your Irish policy.” “I don’t care a rap what you think of my policy,’’; rétorted Churchill. But I am not going to Liver- pool unless you both support me.” Tun TORY OPINION 18 DIVIDED. The younger and more progressive members feel that they can accomplish nothing by the policy of Churchill's opponents, while the older and more cautious see certain danger and possibly disruption in the party as a result of Churchill's recklessness. The Standard received an inspired hint from high quarters to attack Churchill. It prints this morning many let- ters of approval. Churchill has weathered similar attacks, but not so strong and united a one. I be- lieve the breach will be healed and that Churchill will speak at Liverpool later, I have taken pains to learn from politicians of diverse views the nature of the situation, so I can state tne following with some confidence. The situation favors the forma- tion of a defi. ite Rad cal party. The Liberal whips are thoroughly alarmed, both for their principles and themselves. A combination between them and respectable Tories is quite possible. This may be hastened by the strong action the Radicals will take everywhcre soon. THE SIGNS OF THIS are the remarkably liberal tones of the Standard lately; Lord Hartington’s attack on the Parnellites; Cham beriain's increasing boldness, and the general uneasiness at the prospect of an enormous Irish yote in the next Parliament. The Liberals are calling for a platform from their leaders and are saying everywhere that the cry of “the old man, the old cause and the old umbrella“ not gooi enough; like dealing with are useless, and they must face the electors with defi- nite pfoposais. I have reasons to know Chamber- lain, with his usual sagacity, is preparing to satisfy these desires from a Radical standpoint, and rise on this wave. THE IRISH VOTE in the next election will be like the same vote in the city of New York in the last Presidential elec- tion, an uncertain quanti:y. Last nignt I had along talk with T. P. O'Connor, who has official charge of the whole Irish political organization in Engiand. He ia superior to most of his party. He has just declined an invitation to be a candidate for Parlament by the London Radical division on the ground that he can only stand as an Irish Nationa list. HE SAYS the whole interest of the Irish party fs limited now to organization in England and Scotland. The equalization of the English political parties is the crucial point of the whole struggie, so that Irish votes will be able to turn many electious. Con- quest in Ireland is certain. With regard to the Tory-Parnellite alliance he says it is @ very haszardeus experiment on the part of Churchill, but naturally he thinks it certain that the latter's policy will ultimately prevail and that his defeat in any case will only last till after the general election. He says there will be eighty-two Irishmea in the next Parliament. PARNELL LAST NIGHT TOLD ME he reckoned on eighty-five. The failure of the Munater bank still excites the greatest interest here. I have conversed with En- glish and Irish bankers about it and the following may be relied upon: The whole dealings of the bank for a long time have not been wholly free from suspicion. Jobbery was the imme- diate cause of the failure in the shape of advasces of money and overdrawn accounts, The Cork shareholders and directors of the bank practically worked in their own interest. A committee of the Dublin shareholders recently formed to oppose this dangerous favoritism set on foot an investigation to secure areform. Farquharson, the manager, who had already embezzled large sums, secretly coached the Dublin committee and provided them with facts and figures for their case from the inside, with the intention to hide his own defalcationan When THE SMASH CAME, under the exposure of the bad methods employed at Cork, this extremely smart maneuver almost succeeded. He also speculated largely «with bank funds. The effect of the failure will probably not be realized in America. An Irish member of Far- Hament said to mei “We might liken Cork toa city of the dead. One person of every ten we meet in the street is ruined directly or indirectly by the failure.” 4 SCHEME ef resuscitation is now accepted, bnt it will be prac- tically making a new bank under the old naine. Nothing can obviate the losses of the depositors. Trade, another Irishman declares, is paralyzed in Cork and several other parts of Ireland. A London financial man has assured me that so long ago as 1864 he had written to the directors that their would be likely to drag down the bank. DILKE. There is now little or ne chance that the Irish land purchase bill will be reached this session. I hear a rumor that Chamberlain and Dilke’s tour to Ireland is abandoned. The scandal which gossips connected with Dine name has blown over and Dilxe will appear in the Commons on Monday, but he undoubtedly will be muck injured and can hardly be as prominent in polities for some- time. | 4 GORDON LAWSUIT. There is likely tobe a lawsuit in the Gordon fam- fly about the 50,000 guineas bald for his diaries. Some | want it, others refuse to have it accepted, and say it js blood money. The suppressed chapter gave a very fuany imaginary dialogue between Granville and his private secretary at Walmer Castle about the Gordon statue to be in Trafaigar Square. THE PALL MALL EXPOSURE. Sir Charies Dilke will reappear in the Howse of Commons oa Monday. It ia believed that the scandal has been settled. BAD BOOK-KEEPING. The Admiralty inquiry reports complaints of the system of book-xeeping in that department, but refrain from censuring the officials. MR. UPWARD'S SUICIDE. The tragic occurrence reported to have followed to be the suicide of William Upward, the stock broker,of No. 2 Draper's Gardena, R C. who, being short of advanciag American securities, suspended payment Thursday last. South America. GENERAL MAS' EXPEDITION. Lima, August 1.—A letter from General Mas re- garding his action while in command of the expedi- tion to the central province is published. He praises the loyalty of the troops to the Government, but acknowledges being harrassed by the intrigues of persons boasting to be friends of the Govern- ment. He says the revolution would have been crushed had he been allowed to engage the enemy after the fight at Iseuchaca, and when at length permission was obtained, the rebels had so profi ted by the delay as torenderan attack very unadvis- able. PROTEST AGAINST A MASONIC TEMPLE, The Bishop of Lima has sent an address to Magr. Touvre, Minister of Justice, protesting against the proposed Masonic hall to be erected in Lima. The Minister has replied in strong terms, deprecating the publicity given to his protest by the Bisbop, but assuring him that in virtue of the Constitution the Government has not permitted, and never will per- mit, the erection of a Masonic temple in’ Lima, The Deminion, BODIES RECOVERED. Sr. Jounssura, Ont., August 1.—The bodies of Engineer Lawrence aud Fireman Colta of the train which ran into a wash-out on the Boston and Lowell Railroad, Vermont Division, were recovered about 12 o'clock last night. Engineer Lawerdhce was badly crushed and cut about the face and the bowels were torn out. Colta was caught under the wood from the tender and was evidently drowned, as the engine was under water. They were both married and residents of this village. A STEAMER BURNED. Pemprogs, Onr., August 1.—The steamer O. O. Kelly of the Upper Ottawa Towing Company burned to the water's edge at the lower town wharf, one mile from here, this morning. Four of the crew lost their lives and two others were very seriously injured. Tarkey. MINISTER COX'S INSTRUCTIONS. CONSTANTINOPLE, August 1. — Mr. 8. 8. Cox, the United States Minister, has been specially instruct- ed, it is believed here, to resume negotiations with the Porte fora modification of the Turkish tariffs on American imports. France. A TRAGEDY AT LILLE. Paris, August 1.—M. Gautier, a financier of Lille, capital of the Department of Nord, being jealous of Madame Linart, a local wine dealer, to-day shot and killed her as she lay in bed, and then, placing himself beside her corpse, blew out bis brains with a revolver. THE NEW CHINESE MINISTER. A high official, Li-Ushui-Fun, bas been appointed as the successor of Marquis Tseng, Chinese Minister to France. GETTING IRONCLADS READY. China is hastening the preparation to revictual and coal three ironclads which were built in Stettin for that Government. The crews of the versels will be strengthened. The reasons for the sudden activity are unknown, but are supposed to be in connection with affairs in Corea. MATTERS IN ANAM. General De Courcey has telegraphed to the Gov- ernment that Anam is tranquil, and that the rebel Minister of Finance and Minister of Public Works have been captured. Germany. COUNT VON MUNSTER DECLINES. Beruin, August 1.—It is stated that Count Von Munster, the German Ambassador at London, has re the Ambassadorship at Paris and that he wil leave the diplomatic service. Oount Von Hatz- feldt, who desires to vacate his present position in the German foreign office, will take the place of Count Von Munster at London. Italy. IN HONOR OF CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS. Genoa, August 1.—The municipal authorities of this city are about to ask the Govern ment to sub- scribe for a demons ration in honor of Christopher Columbus in 1892, with an exhibition of relics Americaa produce. Spain. ALARMING SPREAD OF THE CHOLERA. Maprip, August 1.— In the forty-eight hours end- ing on Friday, sixty-nine cases of cholera and forty - one deaths were reported in Madrid. Thirty-one of the victims were women. Seventy bodies lay unouried in the cemetery outside the town yester- day, the police cordon around the infected houses preventing the people from obtaining burial licenses. The lower classes manifest the greatest hostility to the official doctors and ambulance bearers. The epidemic is spreading to all the horthern provinces. » NEW CASES AND DEATHS. The number of new cases of cholera throughout Spain yesterday was 2,049, and of deaths from the Jisease 849. In the city of Madrid $8 new cases and deaths have been reported to-day, and in the prov- nee of Madrid, outside of the city, 4 new cases and 14 deaths, Russia. MINISTER LOTHROP AND THE CZAR.

From the London Standard. Ices and i inks are now so common in hot weather—from the iced champagne with which the diner-out accompanies and the iced dding with which he unwisely concludes his inner, to the delicious ha’p’orth with which the street boy delightfully cools his tongue— that we habitually forget the insult which a sudden lump or draught of freezing matter of- fers to the much enduring stomach. Dr. Muter adds to his report on cheap ices, a rider which, though often forgotten’ now, was a truism thirty years ago. The mere fact of the hasty consumption of ice upon a hot day and an emp- stomach would in itself frequently cause un- t results.” ‘‘Unpleasant results” is a euphemism for which our grandmothers and t aunts used plainly to call sudden deaths. e do not believe that in the case with which Dr. Muter was concerned the sufferers were in- jured merely by the internal chill, for * is 5 oul death as the penalty of drink cold a was then a . luxury —when we were hot, our grandmothers gressly exagger- ated the truth, for since their time the use of chilled drinks and foods has become almost universal, even in England, but abselutely so in the United States. Nevertheless, there was truth in what they said. People in America ‘pay very heavily in digestion and vitality for hasty joy which they are tually snatching from draugitts of water at the freez- ing point, nor do we, who follow them at a very respectful distance, by any means escape the eS ake ence.

Speetal Telegraph from Piekering & Co., Chica te the Past Dieoenen “ss CuicaGco, August 1.— Contrary to most people's expectatations, the wheat market has been firmer and remarkably steady to-day. Fluctaations were unimportant and very little was doing. Crop re- ports were bad and wheat in our elevators was supposed co be cooler; in fact, many doubted whether it had been hot at any time. Deliveries on August contracts were very large, the wheat concentrating in the hands of Armour, George Walker and Irwin Green & Co. Cables were a trifle steadier, but as Monday will be a holiday, but little was doing there to-day. Se ber wheat was either 90 bid or 90 sellers nearly all day, but closed weaker. 1 lifeless. on August contracts, the chartering of yesterday made the crowd anxious to buy. The market fell off a quarter cent from the extreme figures. The market ruled firm, but closed rather r. For Monday, receipts are estimated at 8 cars beat. 320 cars corn and 72 cars oats. Provisions were firmer and rathcr more active in view of a probable reductien in stocks, which mat- ter will be definitely known this afternoon. : w CLOSING PRICES 3 P. M. daily 8. W.

New York Bulietin.—The receipts of wheat in this market since July 1 to daie, inclusive, were 1,082,000 bus., er just about half those of same time last year, which were 2,063,000. It must be remem- bered that this season St. Louis has received wheat from sections which are nat tributary to this mar- ket, such as spring wheat from the North and wheat frem Indiana. If this outside wheat is de- ducted, it will be seen that the falling off is much greater than the above figures show.——A shrewd observer around the of Trade, who keeps his eyes and ears open, gets off the following: I notice that there is a set of traders who assume to be very wise and very wealthy, and who make large deals and try to appear very serene amid the surrounding turmoil, and who never talk much with the I suppose these men consider themselves the aristocrats of the busi but I also notice that they ‘get left’ about as often as anybody.

SATURDAY, AUGUBT 1, 1885. i —_— Juden Denison has been removed “for cause,” What cause? Why, ‘cause sixteen good Democrats want his place. Tux article in yesterday's Post-DIsPaTCH on pools referred only to railroad pools, of which there are many. The political pools are scarcely less numerous and varied. — oe) Tue Wabash read, according to our state- ment ef yesterday, has thirty-six local pools and two receivers. As a terrible example of the consequences of pooling the Wabash is a sucoess. THE agitation over the question of uniform- ing private policemen is immense, especially when-contrasted with the quiet reception given to Sam Oxvuss's recent gouge rates for trans- fer and terminal chargesin the commerce of St. Louis. Tu horrible story of crime on the sand- boat in the harbor, published in the Post-D1s- PATCH of yesterday, is supplemented by fur- ther revelations to-day, which show that there are elements in St. Louis as base and vicious as any in London. Strangely enough, the sup- pression of the truth has not cured the evil. THE small warfare carried on in St. Louis against Republican local officials in the inter- ests of local spoilsmen should be an additional inducement to CLEVELAND to go outside of the lists of professional politicians in filling the Federal offices in this city. The indications are that we shal] needa few officials selected on aecount of fitness. ) am THE removal of Judge DENISON coming s0 soon after the appointment of CLEARY renders the question of this successorship to his office highly interesting. If Mayor Frawncis is going back to the days of the Scheme and Charter Election to reward the faithful for the ques- tionable work they did on that heroic day, he has a long list of arrears to settle. We recently stated that the Merchants’ Ex- change had contributed $270 to the Fresh Air Mission. Up to yesterday the members of the Exchange had contributed the sum of $505 to that admirable charity. The Merchants’ Ex- change sometimes says foolish things, but more often does wise things. It is the great strong- hold of public spirit in St. Louis, and the Post- DIsPaTcHs is its organ. Ir. the railroads are one year ahead of all the other tax-payers in the State, as Lord Chief Justice MoGrats has decided, the State and its municipalities will probably have to get along without any railroad taxes for 1885, This has been a hard year on railroads, and they are not likely to pay a year’s taxes when they can stop the collection by simply showing their tax-receipts for every fiscal year up to date, and for one year over. Tux Chicago Tribune improved the oppor- tunity offered by the selection of New York for GRaNT’s burial place, and delivered a ma- licious, abusive and mendacious tirade against the great city. This had the natural effect of calling attention to the claims of Chicago on the country, and Chicago has received full and impartial treatment at the hands of the New York press. The Chicago Zribune would be glad to recall ite stupid abuse of New York, but it is too late. — THE grandmotherly scolding administered by the London Standard to Lord Raxpotra CHURCHILL ought te convince the young Sec- retary that he is the greatest and most import- ant personage in the Tory party. It will also convince large numbers ef Tories that this isso, and as this is the impression which Lord Rax- DOLPH CHURCHILL is most anxious to produce and which the Standard does not wish to pro- duce, one wonders why the Standard should have given him this boost to neteriety. — enn Mr. Mort's faithful and efficient services as Assessor of Water Rates will not suffice as a defence against the evidence of his political work last year. He hes been keeping bad company. He received his education in a bad school. He assumed the responsibility of all the offensive practices of his party, and he will probably face decapitation with the courage of a determined and unflinching partisan.

She wishes to have him naturalized so that he may be promoted in the army over the heads of Englishmen, and Brit- ish patriotism, public spirit and sanse of justice cry out in in@ignation. But, suppose that instead of giving this lazy and worthless pauper a grant from the national income direct, Queen Vicronta had tried an- other form of enabling him to live on money that did not belong to him; suppose she had not applied to Parliament fora grant, but had got- ten him a charter for a street railroad in Brigh- ton, or a monopoly of the gas supply of Shef- field, or an exclusive privilege of ferrying goods and passengers over the Mersey at Liverpool, at rates to be fixed by himself and to be in- creased whenever he needed an extra dividend! What then? Why, the British public would bave risen from Land’s End to John O'Groat’s, and put Queen Vicroria off the throne. And yet Queen Vicroria would have done nothing more for her one little German Barra RERG than the rulers of St. Louis and of Mis- souri do for a dozen corporate Battenberg’s that are growing fat out of the wreck of the city's prosperity. MEXICAN WAYS. An esteemed correspondent claims room in our columns for the Mexican side of the recent little unpleasantness between the Mexican ex- cursionists and the city of St. Louis. His de fence does not strengthen his case, We do not care whether the offensive newspaper article was just or unjust, The result shows that the Mexicans are a people who do not understand or tolerate criticism or censure of any kind, and they certainly need it as badly as any na- tion on the face of the earth. Compliments, flattery, praise, adulation of every kind they swallow greedily, but as soon as any impartial friend shows them the faults, errors or crimes of their national history they are “insulted.” And if they go to one extreme of unreason in accepting fulsome praise they go to the other extreme in resenting truthful criticism as an ‘tinsult.” The plea of our correspondent amounts to saying that if we wish tosecure the trade of Mexico we must refrain from telling the truth about Mexico and the Mexicans. Although it is a fact that four out of fiveof the Mexicans are unable to read or write we must pretend that we believe they are highly educated, Al- though President GonzaLEez and his Ministers were a band of thieves who plundered the country without encountering protest or resis- tence we must pretend that Mexicois a model republic entering upon a grand career. Any proposition that the newspapers of this country shall quit telling the truth because it is unpleasant reading for Mexico is too pre- posterous to be considered. The press of this country exists by publishing the news, and a concerted silence is impossible. As for the St. Louis incident, it illustrates a childishness which lets new light on the Mexi- can temper. They are so unreasonable that they cannot do justice to the feelings of St. Louis, ow ¢ D 8 3 7 * 1 — * ; * ve ~~ * * 3 8 PJ — 7 4 7 1 2 „ Se a 7 * K. * a av; * * . * n ne es as be ons , , —

Let babies and young children have plenty of rain fresh air. In hot weather send them out in the mornings and evenings; in cool weather in the middle of the day.

Let as much light into the room us possible, for children need it just as plants do. Spread open and air the beds every day, and never make them up for a while after rising.

Always give it warm and thin enough to through the nipple easily. Let the mother feed herself with oatmeal :thoroughly cooked and eaten wita milk, which will be very nourishing to both.

The child be fed regularly, and only enough t in the bottle, the mother holding it child is fed. The bottle should be washed out carefuily and rinsed immediately after feeding; do the same with the nipple and put it in fresn water till li is needed again. The child's stomach will be affected if great care is not used iu this . Keep the milk on ice if PB ge pone but be sure to boil it before using. A pinch of baking soda may be put into the milk to keep it sweet, if ice cannot be had.

MEDICAL COMMITTEE. DR. KINGSLEY said that this circular is necessary because the phy- sicians have not the time to answer in detail each of the motuers on the boat, Dr. y further said that the physicians on the boat were there really to treat emergency cases aud they could not treat patients of ocher paysicians, e this would create bad feeling and is contrary to the code of ethics, The following letter was received to-day: Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

The following correspondence was received at this office to-day, relating to the question of uni- forming private watchmen, about which there has been some small discussion during the last few days. Sr. Lovis. August 1, 1885. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: In my communication to you yesterday I stated that the Republican had declined to publish my letter of the day before in regard to the private watchmen quesiion That paper states editorially this morning that such was not the case. Tne facts are that the letter had been in hands of the paper since 2 o’clock of the afternoon of the previous day. An issue of its paper had ap- containing a creat deal on the other side of the question, and omitting my letter. I had sent twice yesterday morning to the Republican office for my manuscript without being able to get it or an answer from the editor as to whether it wouid be published or no, and I naturally inferred tnat it would not, and,for the reasons I stated in my letter to you yesterday, | sent it te you for publication, Between g and 4 o'clock I received the enciosed letter from Mr. Fran« R. O'Neil, editor of the publican, whic will perhaps throw some light on the reasons which actua ed him. How he could ex- ct to “change or eliminate some of the facts in my letter is — I cannot understand. I at once wrote him that his enclosed letter was not received till 3:15 p. m., after 1 sd was out. So far as the Board is concerned, the controversy is now at an end. We believe we are doing what 18 right and proper. We have seen no strong reasons to the contrary adduced in this discussion, and as the case now seems to be, or ought to be, fully understood by the public, we have nothing further to Say. It 2 a matter of general interest, however, that in ali large cities of the United States private watcn- men are, and have been for a long time, uniformed and disciplined pretty much in the same manner as Propose. As bearing upon the opposition to the measure on the part of the Republican, the present editor seems to be only consistently following the course which that newspaper has always pursued, for it is a fact that when the ‘ar police force of this city wus first org nised, the Republican as violentiy op d the uniforming the regular rolmen as it now does that of the private w en, and with just about as much — of — ery respectfully.

Juan lverLow THE ELDEST DAUGHTER. M. Franck Petermann, minister of the Ro- formed Church at Lausanne, was an austere man, to whom heaven had vouchsafed nine daughters. At the time that this le and melancholy a | story beg the oungest 10. All were plump, round and in hysical condition. Indeed nature you never remarked that the gravest, the most the most stiffly-cravated of the successors oh erin ol Calta hen_have ihe delat most deli y ters These men so hostile to the Flesh have the most ravishing samples of it in their own households. ese enemies of sin have daughters who are veritable occasions of sin. You wonder how This could possibly have bo- gotten That. No doubt it is one of those re- venges of Matter nst Mind which cause the world to remain just as it has always been, and te go on forever in precieely the same way. The three elder daughters of M. Petermann all had bibical names—Lia, N beth; the next three had English Betsy, and Norah; — three y All, as I have said, were pretty or 122 or at least graceful. But the eldest, Lia, was beautiful too beautiful. She was an adora- ble blonde, calm, quiet, and kindly of oa, who, by reason of having been so long a sort second mother to her yo sisters, had thereby acquired a certain serious and sweetly- patient manner—something that at once com- manded confidence and respect. She was not in the least coquettish, and that is more than I can truthfully say for the other young Peter- , or promised to make, excellent elder ones had received as many as it was possible for a girl to obtain; others were pursuing innumerable studies in which they always won the first add that all of them . less the domestic arts of cooking, housekeeping had no secrets tor them. rmann, like the good, far- f he was, had given each of his daugnters some fashiona lish- ment. Noemi played the pi violin, Kate the flute. Betsy had a pre were students. diplomas and the drawings. velous elocutionist; and M. Legouve, the only man of our time who really knows how to rei, had commended her diction. The young- est two had not yet acquired any remarkabie accomplishment, but they would do so sooner or later trust M. Petermann for that! As for Lia, she united in herself all the various talents wes eB ney She knew everything, t a , without ap ing to know anything. And, furthermore, she played most modestly and divinely upon the violon- cello. M. Petermann, ever solicitous for the future, guided all these youthful minds while glorifying the Lord. Thus, in this exemplary family, each one had his or her special talent,—just as in those trav- eling circuses where tather and children form the whole troop. And, indeed, the Petermann family could very well have started a circus by themseives; for all the young ladies practiced gymnastics and excelied in croquet and lawn- tennis. The Petermann tamily could have started a hotel and a ing establish- ment. The Petermann family could have easily organized themselves into a concert troupe.

Next day she scolded Kate very severely, and remon- strated with ber on the enormity of her con- duct; but even while scolding her, she kissed her. Upon the advice of her big sister, Kate, overwhelmed with contrition, rushed to M. Petermann, and kneeling before her father confessed her foolishness and her love.

The Browns Continue to Hold Their Own Against All Comers—Racing Gossip — Sporting Sundries — Notes and Personals. To-day a secret meeting of the American Associ- ation of base-ball clubs is to be held. The place of meeting has not been made public, but the prob- ability is it will de held in Pittsburg. The main question before this meeting will be a discussion as to whether or not the reserve rule is to be abrogased, and it is not an easy matter to predict what the result will be. Three clubs are quoted as being against the rule and four in favor of it, while one is on the fence. St. Louis, Balti- more, Brooklyn and the Athletics will vote to abolish the reserve rule, the managers of these clubs having put themselves on record in this regard. Pittsburg, Cincinnati and Louisville will vote against the rule, the two former because they think their clubs are strong enough and the latter because it is too poor to secure a high-priced team. St. Louis hasastrong enough ciub, but Mr. Von der Ahe is willing to make it still stronger, and the Baltimores, Brookiyns and Ath- letics also need strengthening. The Metropolitans, therefore, will hold the deciding vote, as should they vote with St. Louis the rule will be abolished, and if they vote against a change the result will be @ tie, which will leave the rule in force, 2 * „ Another matter which will probably come before the meeting is a consideration of Dave Rowe’s case. It is fair to presume that if the matter is brought up at ali tne decision finally arrived at will be favorable to the St. Louis biack-listed player. His position has n thoroughly defined, and tue dub which defeated his reinstatement at the last meeting was that representing Cincinnati. The reason of this was that Caylor in- sisted on having Mullane reinstated at the same time, but as the latter's violation of the rule was such. flagrant one the other clubs refused to vote for the remstatement of either. As Cincinnati has now been strengthened by the addition of McKeon and Keenan and is so well off for batteries it could afford to release Powers and Mountjoy, it is fair to presume its representatives will be willing to vote for the reinstatement of Rowe and that player will again appear in the field and materially strengthen the St. Louis League team. * To-day is also the date set for a meeting of the couierence committees of the League and Ameri- can Association. ‘This meeting will probably not take piace, however, as in the event of the Amier- ican » Association refusing at its own meeting to decide to abolish the reserve rule, it. would be ridiculous to bring up the matter before the conference commitiee. The League has taken a perfectly passive stand on the subject,and unless the American Association makes the frst overtures nothing will be said even if a meeting is held. Taking ii all in all, it looks now as if the American Association’s howl about the League’s reinstatement of blacklisted players will be entirely forgotten and nothing new will develop, but everything go On precisety as before. The American Association. There have been but two changes in the standing of the American Association clubsin the pennant race the past week. Louisville is now tied with Cincinnati for third place, and the Baltimoſes have taken Brooklyn's place at sixth. Pittsburg is grad- wally strengthening herself at second place, and now, with one game less played than Cincinnati and Louisville, has two more games won and three less games lost. The following is a detailed stand- ing of the different clubs: } „no 1 3S ** “S70UITIT eq] | uA mund omann ange uo tome uon owe ao * St. Louis. Athletic. Faltimore Brooklyn.

By Telegranh to the Post-Dispatch. N New York, August 1.— The busiest day in the week for Robert Bonner is Friday, for on that day the New York Ledger goes to press. He spared a few minutes yesterday to talk with a Tribune reporter about the great performance of Maud 8. at Cleveland. “The cutting down of her record one half a second was nota surprise to me. I expected it, for I had | had telegrams stating that she was all right. You know I told you about a week ago that she was about forty pounds overweight, but the weather has been favorable for overcoming that difficulty, and I have no doubt that she had been reduced weight. It was really the first fast mile had this season. My brother David and my son, Frederick, have been with her for about two weeks and had full of my interests. The Tribune printed a dispatch sent from my son. Frederick is aw careful and always weighs everything he says, and his statement as tothe condition of the track can be relied upon. “It was indeeda wonderful performance, even leaving out the condition of the track, which was admittedly somewhat siow. First quarter in a 2:11 gait. Second quarter was trotted in 31 1- BeCO. a 2:06 gait. That made the half mile 1:041-8. That was fast enough to take the life out of a horse, yet she made the next quarter, around the turn, in 31 seconds, a 2:04 gait. Around a curve is not the lace to show the highest rate of speed, as everybody knows, but as she was probably right within herself, of course Bair did not check her. As an evidence of her capacity, the fact taat under the circumstances of a slow track and the first fast mile she has had this season, she trotted the last half mile a quarter of a second faster than she did the first half, speaks for itself. It was the four- mile running bi that is in her that staid her up for such a performance. Without it such a feat would be impossible. The Whole experience in breeding trotters proves it. Thoroughbred blood is indispensible if you would combine staying qualities witn speed. Both Maud S. and Jay-Kye-See, the two greatest performers on the trottiog turf that the world ever saw, have four-mile running biood coursing. through their veins. One traces through the dam to Lexington, and the other to Boston. oe “I own Dexter and Rarus, each of whom reigned as king in the course of histrotting career. Dexter is old and in the sere and yellow leaf. Barus isstill frisky and fast. Neither of these, however, is to be compared with Maud S. I do not say that within a year or two a horse may not be brought out that wiil eclipse anything she may be able to do, for in the advanced state of breeding at the present day we do not know what to expect; I, for one, would welcome a trotter that could do it, for I have devoted a great deal of tithe and money toward finding out the limit of How fast do I think Maud S. will trot? That is something I do not like to talk about, for it is un- leasant to make predictions that may not be ustified in the future. 1 will say this, however; Her present record is not the limit of ber ability, and to say she can trot in 2:08 is not saying too much. My brother David, who is a careful horse- man, thinks she can easily accomplish a mile be- tween 2:07 and 2:08.” In regard to the Cleveland track and the climatic conditions being favorable to the highest speed of the great mare, Bonner said: IL can best cover that point by giving a statement of Maud S.’s former manager made to a reporter of a western paper before this trial. I believe,’ he said, ‘that Maud S. would stand a better chanee of beat- ing her record over the Rochester, Chicago or Providence track than she would over the Cleveland track.’ That, I think, is the general im ion.“ In regard to further efforts to be eby Maud S. this season to beat the record Mr. Bonner said: *“T shall undoubtedly give further exhibitions with her, but where or when I have not, as yet, made u my mind. Nor have I decided as to whether I wi harness her double with one of my other horses and see how fast a team can trot, though it is more than ble tnat I may do so. This I am etermined upon, however, that every- body shall have an opportunity of seeing her before she is permanently retired. As to her con- dition after her effort at Cleveland, I have only to show you a dispatch from her driver, which I , just received.” The dispatch read: . July 31, 1885. Robert Bonner, Wilifams and Spruce streets, New York: I have driven Maud 8. this morning. She is as fine as silk. W. W. Bam. Mr. Bonner received the following congratulatory dispatch from Wm. H. Vanderbilt: SaRaTo@a, July 31. Robert Bonner, New York Ledger, New York: 1 telegraphed answer to W. Edward this morning. Maud S. is a wonderful mare, as I always said. believe she can beat the world with perfect ease. Besides she is so handsome and gentle. Icongratu- W. H. VANDERBILT. Corcoran vs. the Chicago Olub. It has been an open secret for along,time past that Corcoran was desirous of leaving the Chicago Club, despite the fact that he has been well treated by the club directors, especially by Mr. Spalding. Cor- coran has done comparatively little work in the box for the Chicago Club this season, onthe pleaof a lame arm, which ome ball players incline to regard as a very lameexcuse. If Corcoran has been play- ing a little game” for his release, he has succeeded, for he secured it solely on his plea of lameness. The alleged condition of his release, viz., that it was given him on his engaging to return to the ing that he had an offer to join one of the Southern League Clubs as a fielder, and next that he though of acting as umpire during the remainder of thet season. The e that he has pot been paid what was due him is explicitiy denied by Mr. Spalding, Corcoran intimated to Mr. Byrne of the Breoklyn Club nis desire to enter his service, and yet, the moment he gets his release from Chicago, e joinsaciub which has no use for any more pitchers, they having four men who pitch—two of them masters of the art. But it is a point to play a: times to keep a good pitcher from joining other clubs, arid New York, above ali other things, not want to see Brooklyn have Corcoran. The truth as regards Cercoran’s claim of a lame arm wül be known when he begins to play in the box for New York. If he then pitches with his old- time effect, it will be plainly evident that he has been scheming for his release. If he does not so pitch, and his arm turns out to be lame in reality, then he will be of no use to the New York Club. (Clipper. To Lower the Records in Public. Lewis Hamilton, who has been exercising his wheel on Hampden Park for some time, has beaten every American record from 5 to 20 miles in prac- tice, and wants a chance to do it here in public. Accordingly, itis more than probable that the Bi- week before the September tournament. In order to have the records accepted by the sporting peo- ple, it will be necessary to charge a nominal admis- sion fee. The notion is to give the tournament racers some records worth breaking. Hamilton is in fine form, and, with a favorable day, is likely to accomplish his objeet. Other wheelmen who are doing good work on the park are Wilbur Winans, on a tricycle, A. O Medarrett and F. W.

In a game between the West of Scotland and the Priory Park Club, July 18 and 14, in Chichester, Eng., J. S. Carrick of the former team was eredited with a best-on-record in the shape of scoring, his 419, not out, being the highest individual score ever made by a batsman. During the whole of thetwo days’ cricket four of the Scotch wickets fell fora total of 745, this large aggregate being alone de- serving of special notice. Messrs. Carrick and Thompson went in first and scored 826 before they were separated. This number for the first wicket in a match has very rarely been equaled, but it is not absolutely the highest on record. ’ There were two other very long stands in this un- completed inning, the fourth wicket adding 164, ‘and the last pair, who were not separated, put on 145. Mr. Carrick was batting altogether for eleven hours and a quarter, and only gave two chances, one at a deep mid-on and the other at the wicket. His score, considering its great duration, and that it was agaiust all sorts of wling throughout two long, hot days, lasting indeed from the first ball of the match to the last, was a wonderful exhibition of patience, combined with hard hitting. His ures were a grand square-leg hit for 8. two 6's, two da, thirty 4's and thirty-four 3's, besides 2.6 and singles. The 745 runs included 50 extras, 88 of which were byes. This leaves 695 forthe runs from the bat, and these runs were made from 1,306 balls. Ten of the Chichester men bowled, and yet the wicket was only once hit in tne two days. This 745 is not actually the best on record for four wickets, for it is beaten by the score made by the Orleans Club agaist ug | Green in August, 1882. On that occasion the fourth wicket feu for 727, while in Chichester the fourth wicket fell for 600. e wicket m Rickling Green went down at 771, so that had time permitted there was every chance not only of that — beaten, but possibly also the Orleans Club's total of 920. With regard to the record, it may be necessary to state that W. N. Roe, ina Cambridge College match in 1881. carried out his bat for 415. This has stood as tue highest innings for four years, and before that the best was E. F. 8. Tylecote’s 404 (not out) in a school match in Clifton, in 1868. W. G. Grace is the only other cricketer who has made 400 in one inning, and that was exactly 400, and, like all the others, was a not out. Mr. Grace’s inning had the peculiarity of being played agaiust twenty-two men in the fieid, and it occupied the greater part of three days.—[Exchange. Boston’s Tricycle Race. The Boston Bicycle Club has issued the following notice in regard to the tricycle road race: The third annual tricycle road race of the Boston ‘} Bicyele Club will take place Monday, August 3 The start will be from a pointa quarter of a mile beyond Baily's Hotel, South Natick, over the follow- ing route: Washington street, through South Natick, Wellesley, Grantville, Newton Lower Falls, to the big Signboard (544 miles), then turn to the right, following Beacon street through Newton Centre tothe reservoir, taking the road between the reservoir at the gate house, going out through the main entrance (1144 miles), then to the ieft Chestnut Hill avenue, Winship and Cambridge streets to Brighton avenue and Beacon street, finishing at 81 Beacon street (1644 miles) As each man passes through the main entrance of the reservoir he will be checked and timed.

The starters in the final heat were Teemer, Gaudaur, Hamm, McKay, Hosmer and Ten Eyck. pools mer selling against the the field was the favor- In regard to the result. Was Teemer beaten fairly? I sav emphatically, no! The assertion that his brother and backer lost money on him I do not believe. I can prove that one of his brothers got a certain sculler to get a ticket on the fleld against Teemer cashed for him. If Teemer wauts to know what the ticket calls for and who got it cashed, she can find out by calling at this office. If he still doubts, the sculler will make affidavit that it is true. Tue sculler is one who stands pre-eminentiy should 1 — backed Teemer, but who bet heavily against him. Scarcely had the scullers got started when Tom Hughes, who was interested financially in the scheme, got frightened and got together a lot of thugs, whom he armed with Mallets, clubs, batch; ets, etc., to protect Teemer. A certain gentie- man, seeing these warlike implements, asked the occasion. He was told, and asked if he would help He became very mdignant, allowing that ne had backed Teemer to win. Tne excuse given was that they had to do it to let themselves out. Every who was at Teemer's headquarters knows this is a fact. The gentleman's name who became indignant can be had at this office. Why wouid Hug nes arm a crowd of people if the race was honest, and this, too, before the scullers were half way to the turning bouys? The prizes for the pro- fessional single-scull race, as advertised on the oill- rograuime, were $5v0 to first, $200 to second 100 to third. Altnough Gaudaur won first $500, he did not get it. I know he got but $200, and I dare Teemer, Hughes or anybody else to say he got more. And yet they would have us ve the race was honest. The prizes as adver- tized, amounted to $2,000. This money was raised I have Teemer's own words for it. Waere this money went Ido not know but I do know the rowers never got it—in fact, never got One-third of it. Tae amounts the rowers got are as follows: Gaudaur, $200; McKay, $80; Hamm $70; Hosmer, $50; Cuuning- ham and sen, the trick oarsmen, $40; young Ritz, who won the local race, nothing: Edward Clator, who came in second, nothing. The amounts given above are what the visiting oarsmen received, aud 1 defy anybody to say they are wrong. The Lazy Man's Bicycle. Numerous attempts have beer made to utilize electrical energy through the medium of second- ary batteries for propelling tricycles, but few have reached beyond the experimental state. The most practical of these was that invented by Mr. Eteve. Regarding this machine the Electrical Review says: It is stated that by the consumption of from three to five pints of common petroleum oil per hour, in the *velocycie,’ as it is called, sufficient power id a ' to tho vehicle with its rider a The generator contains a supply of petroleum, enough fora run of three or four hours, from which is evolved, by the aid of two small compressing pumps, the gaseous mixture for corsumption in the two engines, in combination with the compress- ing pumps affixed to the frame of the vehicle in front of the driving wheels and seat.

A New York correspondent writes: “There is considerable speculation in this city and vicinity over the rumor that is now in circulation that the Western clubs are playing into the hands of the Chicagos. It was also rumored here that one or two of the Eastern clubs would much prefer seeing the championship go to Chicago instead of to New York. Little attention was paid to the latter, how- ever,until Radbourne openly made his boast on the Polo Ground in the presence of a number of people that he would do all he could to send the champion- ship to Chi ,and that so far as he was concerned the Chicago Club would win every game from the Providence Club in which he pitched. This asser- tion created quite a stir, and was even taken up by the Providence press, who said they would watch Radbourne closely in all his movements Here are the Buffalo, Detroit and St. Louis clubs, in every respect able to cope successfully with the New York, Philadelphia, Providence and Boston clubs, al- ew Yorks have had to fight hard for they bold d fought their battle thus far this season, for they have not received assistance from any quarter.

Death of the Weill-Known Journalist aad Author of the Spoopendyke Papers, By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New Yor«, August 1.—Stanley Huntley, the well- known journalist, died Thursday at his residence, 150 West Forty-fifth street, of Bright's disease of the kidneys, after a lingering illness of several months. He was the son of Judge R. H. Huntiey, a wealt hy resid ent of Brooklyn. His first work for the press was as a reporter of the New York Tribune, for which he wrote but one article. He was assigned to report the m eeting of the Farmers’ Club. Without trying to obta ip any information by questioning members of the club, he wrote a sarcastic article, poking fun at the chairman, and dwelling upon the hay- seed in that worthy’s hair. The next day he was informed that his services were no longer wanted, and the fact was expiained to him that Horace Greeley had presided at the Farmers’ Club. His next experience in newspaper work was in St. Louis, where he worked en all the leading papers end for some time as society editor on the Missouri Republican, While in this position it is said that he never took a note, either of a fact or a name. in 1872 he went to Chicago and became a reporter on the Inter- and subsequently on the Tribune. While in Chicago he ACQUIRED CONSIDERABLE REPUTATION. In 1876 he prepared a two-page article charging Benj. F. Bristow, then Secretary of the Treasury, with complicity in the whis«cy frauds, creating a great sensation. Im- mediately after the presidential election in 1376 Huntley interviewed R. B. Hayes and attributed to him the expression that “For himself, he cared nothing for his defeat by Tilden, but it made his heart bleed to think of the poor negro," a bit of cant which was extensively . but which Hayes deaied — my uttered. hile Sitting Bull and his tribe were in revolt, Huntley started out on the plains to interview the great Indian warrior. He gained admission to the chief's tepee in the plains and obtained a jong and interesting interview with him. Severing his connection with the Chicago pa- pers, Huntley went to Dakota and became editor of the Bismarck Tribune,then owned by Maj. Edwards, also proprietor and editor of the Fargo (Dakota Argus.

The libretto is written in Gilbert's best style and will bear any amount of repetition. The audiences which have been tothe Cave have yet to hear the libretto given as it should be, and doubtless will be next week. While the musie is not entrancing, it is pretty and is full of dash and jollity. It is admirably suited tothe theme, and possesses a number of popular airs with several really lovely songs. . - ses There has been a vast deal of improvement in the business, in the choruses, and aleo in the work of individual members of the company since the first night, and the opera has received much more ap- preciation from the audiences.

This one mustache in a desert of smooth lips marks Mr. Hatch as a unique and singu- lar member of the cast.

American Performers in Paris. From the Paris Morning News. The principal attractions now on at the Jardin de Paris are Miss Ada Bianche,a very clever per- former on the tight rope sans balancing pole, and Ferguson and Mack, Irish eccentrics of much abil- ity.

Seaside Letter in New Vork World. Mr. Raymond says that the greatest proof that the world is the best training for the stage is shown by the successes made from time to time by people who go on the stage without any technical profes- sional training. Out in San Francisco a lawyer friend of his not long ago made up his mind that he could succeed as an actor. He prepared for a difficult part in some modern play, and made an astonishing success at once. He appeared only twice. He was satisfied that he could play. He had proved that, and afterwards resumed content- edly the practice of his profession. Last year Mr. Raymond had a lady from Washington, a young married lady, come to him for help in getting a position on the stage. He found her smart, full of talent and already full of promise. He gave ber the part of Amelia in In Paradise.“ Shs played it during his engagement at Lancaster, Pa. She appeared in this role with only two slight preliminary rehears- als, and played the part much better than the lead- ing lady of the company, who wasa trained pro- fessional. Mr. Raymond believes that al! of our leading public speakers are fine actors. Conkling, Biaine, Evarts, Ingersoll might now make great hits im almost any part they might undertake er the stage. Brains, individuality anda knowledge of the world and of human natureare the prime uisites to success on the stage. The man or woman who has these is certain to succeed upon the stage without any so-called professional train- ing. No great actor was gradnated from auy school except that of real life, and no elocutionist was ever able to give any one the faintest semblance of eloquence. Honor From the Stage. Keller in New York World. The managers of the New Tork theaters now open are unanimous in their determination to close their houses on the day of General Grant’s funeral, and étherwise show respect to the memory of the great hero. The Bijou Opera House was the first to drape its front. As soon as the news of General Grant's death was received, the management hung out its Mack signs of mourning. The draping of Wallack's Theater will be particularly noticeable. Manager McCaull, as is well known, was an officer in the Uonfederate army. He will have the pillars in front of the theater covered with alternate bands of blue and gray. and over the whole black crepe will be hung. It is the intenfion of, the leading theatrical le of the city to give some public testimonial their sorrow at General Grant's death, but nothing definite has yet been done. Among many propositions made is one to use one of the theaters for memorial services, and to ask the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher to deliver an ress. Spanish Comic Opera. From the Dramatic News. There is some talk in the European papers of the likelihood of a novel departure in comic opera. Some extremely effective musical pieces have, it is said, been discovered in Spain and are already in progress of adaptation forthe French stage. These operettas are described as being bright in dialogue sparkling in melody and pictur esque in plots and settings. ter our long successive sieges of French, English and German comic opera, a — will certainly be grateful as long as it is not or the worse. Considering Spain's reputation in the musical line, however. we are inclined to doubt the glowing tribute the paragraphers are just now paving to these new discoveries. Spanish music is like Spanish —& part and parcel of the country itself. have the substance of the froth on a cup of the native chocolate. In Spain chocolate is good drinking. It fits the climate and surroundings. But it loses its charm by exporta- tion, and as far as we can recall the same Has been the case with nearly every novel or play dome into any other tongue from the Castilian since the days of the immortal Don Quixote.

Only the other day I heard what had become of the vanished charmer. Some time ago she was stricken with sis; the disease has ended by affecting her brain, and the brilliant beauty; the gifted actress, so heartless, but 80 fascinating. is now a hopeless idiot, To the honor of humanity be it recorded that help has been found for her in her misery.

Good Fellowship’s Price. From the Dramatic Times. The recent inquiry into Joha McCullough's af- Yairs, personal and pecuniary, has established the fact that his property, all told, does not reach the sum of $50,000. Considering the money McCul- lough had made for some years before his afflic- tion overtook him, it should have touched at least treble that sum. But John McCullough was “a fellow,” and you cannot give your cake to others to eat and have it yourself. Was it Jealousy? From a Letter in Albany Express. Mr. John T. Raymond said to me yesterday: “I have only stayed in New York this summer for one reason—to flud a new play.

In one of my letters last May I gave a short ac- count of Miss Lippincott's debut at Trieste. Mrs. Lippincott informs me that her daughter also sung at Pola, near Trieste, appearing successfully in “Sonnambula.” She had so short a notice to pre- pare for the stage that Mrs. Lippincott was busy behind the scenes giving the final stitches to the costume for the second act while Miss Lippincott was singing the first act. The lazy Italians were astonished at tne pluck and activity of these two American women, and Grace Greenwood showed the world that she is as quick with her needle as with ber pen, ‘ A Siamese Concert. From the London Times. At the end of one room was a raised platform, on which sat, cross-legged. the musicians, some four- teen in number, dressed in native uniform of black jackets, wide knickerbockers, white stoekings and pumps. Around and about them were grouped their instruments, objects in themselves of great beauty and value, and forming with the players a quaint and attractive picture. At the center of the platform, his back against the wall, was the khong player, seated inside his instrument, which was semi-circular in shape, being a frame- work of orange wodd inlaid with ivory, supporting a number of small gongs of bell-metal, lightly hung, and shaped like the lid of a kettle. These gongs were all of the same size, the difference of sound being given by varying thicknesses of metal. On either side of the khong were seated violinisis and flutists. Tue latter per- formed, in alternation with their ivory flutes, on a species of elongated Pan pipes, consisting of seven bamboo pipes of varying leagths, with a collective mouth-piece in the center them. The violins, calied in Siamese saw,“ were specimens of the most wonderful workmanship that can be i ed. In a general way the violia of the far East might be briefly described as a stick of the genus broom- handle stuck in the side of a wooden pot, covered a: one end with skin and with one or more strings, raised froin the skin by a bridge, stretched from one end of the handle to the opposite side of the pot. Instruments exactly answering this 3 tion are used by the natives of the Egyptian in the Soudan, aud are to be found in the bazars of Cairo. But tue Siamese “saws” imported by Prince Nares, though in shape resembiing them, were very far removed from these rough instruments. One in particular had the stick or handle of ebony inlaid with ivory, the sounding box of carved ivory, a tusk of exceptional size having been used, and the keys for tightening the strings of ivory encrusted with jewels. Another was covered with enamel work and with gold inlaid on silver,a specialty of the Siamese. In front of the saw players and flutists were the ranat“ and takkay'“ play- ers. The ranat“ is an instrument similar in prin- ciple to the zither, but with wood or metal taking the place of glass. There were three of these “ranats,” one having notes of brass, another of steel and the third of bamboo. As in the khong, the varying thicknesses of wood or metal formed the different notes, and the player held in each hand a striker of thin bamboo, tipped with a round of hard leather. The “taxhay” is in shape like a violonce!lo, but a violoncello laid on its back and raised from the ground on four feet. It has three strings, the notes being marked by frets as ina guitar, and the player strikes the strings with an ivory pin. which is fastened to the forefinger of his right hand. The word “takhay’’ means alliga- tor, and the instrument js so called because in old days it was made in the shape of that reptile, the strings running from the end of the tail (along which were the frets) to the shoulders. All Eastern music seems at firat to be very much alike, and probably few people present on Friday evening would on repetition have recognized “Phaga don“ or “Lao Lotkhai,” or could have sep- arated Tus Sleep of the Gods” from “The Sorrow of Parting,” although toan accustomed Oriental ear the difference between these to performances would probably be as great as that dividing the „Marseillase“ from Gounod’s “Ave Maria. But though one might not appreciate the music in itself, it was impossible not to admire the manner of its performance. There is apparently no written music in Siam, and there seemed to be no conductor of the bandon Friday evening, but the unanimity of the musicians appeared to be perfect, while the solos on the rauat and takhay,“ which were extremely compiicated and must bave been very hard to learn, were particularly well done. Mapleson’s Coming Season. From the Dramatic News. Tue fact that Mapleson has engaged Giannini and Del Puente for his next American season looks very much as if we are to have Italian opera after all next fall. Since the engagements bave been an- nounced all sorts of rumors have been indulged in as to who will be the prima donnas and the principal members of the cast, Mme. Patti announces that she will not return. It is not likely that Mme. Nillson could be induced to come, and Mile. Nevada is un- der engagement to sing abroad, so the remaining ones are Mme. Gerster, who was in Italy all las: winter, and Marie Roze, the wife of Mapleson's son, Henry. Prior to his departure for Europe, Maple- son said if he should bring opera to this country again it would be at cheaper prices, with singers equally as good, at lesser salaries. Conside that if Mme. er was secured at her salary o two years ago, Which was $1,600a pdérformance, there cannot be much cheapness about tie affair, unless the supporting company are to be people of little ability.

Mackay has been engaged by Frank I, Gardner to play a strong character part in Sardou's new play, which will be the feature of Mme. Janisch's repertoire next season. Mr. Mackay will also conduct the rehearsals; under the superintend- — of the autbor, who Comes here for the first me. The Gaulois says: “Bernhardt is struggling hard to her debts, and works when er artists rest, but she has a son who costs her immense sums of money, is educating her sister's daughter, and supports a cousin who has eight children aud no fortune, making it quite certain she will die in the ness. har Mr. W. E. Sheridan will play “Louis VI.“ almost exclusively next season, the demand for this char- acter by managers throughout the country being largely in excess of the others of his repertoire. Special scenery and new costumes, together with a strong compauy to support him, will enhance the attract. veness of the piece. John T. Raymond thinks technical knowledge of the stage not necessary to write plays. With a good story and dramatic ability the play will be all ht. The fitting itto the stage afterwards is of minor importance. He thinks that it is only a question of time when - written in this country will be equal to those of any other land. William Oreswick, after fifty years of active life, is about to retirefrem the Lonuon stage. Fifteen years ago he played at the old Fourteenth Street Theater in support of Laura Keene, and afterwards toured the couagtry for a season with Charlotte Cushman. He was a good actor of the old school, and has been for many years a nuge favorite — 2 Here he was voted old, fat and a ailure. THE HOUSEHOLD, Retail Prices of Sundry Supplies That Cheer the Inner Man. The cool wave which came over the city last evening was regarded as a benison by the market- men. For the past six weeks,” said a dealer, the extremely warm weather experienced bas caused people to become lethargic. They did not care to work; and. what is more, very few cared to eat any- . thing at all, except what was necessary to sustain life; but now that there is a prospect for the weath- er becoming cooler, things will liven up a little and the people will at least become energetic enough to eat. During the hot spell scarcely any of the market dealers except the vegetable men did anything at all, and the latter would have had no cause for complaint were it not for the fact that sucha quantity of material rotted on their hands that the profits were considerably lessened. There are very few changes noticeable in any of the departments this week except the vegetable market. In this line the price of tomatees has do- creased to 280 a peck, and cucumbers and summer squash are now selling at 3 for de. Lemons are new excessively high, being quoted at 40c and 500 a dozen.

St. Louis Merchants Refuse to Patronise , the Vanderbilt Road. The peaceable and long-suffering merchant of St. Louis is, perhaps, not as peaceable or as long- suffering as regards freight rates as Joint Agent DePew is quoted as representing him. The subjec t that has been worrying the peaceable and lonc- suffering for some time past, in fact ever since the formation of Fink's Freight Bureau, is the rate West-bound, or rather, the percentage of the Chicago rate, which he is obiiged to pay. Accord- ing to the way the railroad companies figure it, the St. Louis rate East-bound should be, and is, 116 per cent of the Chicago rateto New York, while the rate West-bound from the Metropolis to St. Louis should be, and is,119 per cent of the rate charged to Chicago. Now it would take a great deal of very able logic to’convince the wholesale grocers or any other jobvers of St. Louis that 3 per cent should be added on to the rates because the goods jobbing trade efforts for a ‘ » N de n . 4 4 1 “ * "i | . 8 1 8 3 " ** * ** 1 " * a * 1 © 3 1 3 “tt n Ae a A i n 5 8 N @ARRETT’S GEMS, Selections Frem the Book of the Weil- Known Dramatic Critic. Some of the Best Productions in Verse and Prose—The Tribute tothe Memory of Adelaide Neilson—A Poem Which Old Timers Will Appreciate. Mr. Thomas E. Garrett will have his book enti- tled , “The Masque of the Muses,’ ready to deliver to subscribers about September 1. This work will contain many of the most brilliant productions of Mr. Garrett's pen during the thirty or thirty-five years that it has seen active service. Some of them were printed in the newspapers with which Mr. Garrett was connected during the best years of his life, aud others appeared in prominent mag- azines. Everything he has saved is worthy of preservation, and his friends, who have been keep- pleased to possess them when they are handsome- ly bound into one compact volume. The subjects cover a wide range, for Mr. Garrettis a gentleman of culture, and his pen has been and is still equal to the discussion of a great variety of topics. He will, however, give a large space in his forthcom- ing book to metrical writings and theatrical sketches. Asa versifier he has originated several very pretty things, prominent among which is the piece styled, The Masque of the Muses, which gives its title to the book. From “The Masque” the following selection is presented , the Post-Dis- paTou having received proof sheets of the work from the publishers, the Nixon-Jones Publishing Company: THE NINE. Hark! epic strains—heroic minstrelsy— A song of valor's deeds, and victory — All welcome, silver-toned Calliope. Terpsichore trips, smiling, graceful, fair, Bounding away from load of cast-off care, And flinging blooms of beauty in the air. Thalia laughs at follies she — And lengthens life, and heightens its gelights, Bright'ning its days and sweetening its nights. In t passion rapt, Melpomene stands, With dewy eyes and nervous, wringing hands, And pleading voice that sympathy comm Euterpe—Queen of Song—or grave or gay, As Music's spell inspire the lyric lay; Where is the heart that yields not to thy sway? Laborious Clio lights the scenic stage With History's wide, illumifiated page, And makes the world the heir of every age. Erato sings her ditties soft and low In nooks where pairs of blushing lovers go To double joy, and share each other's woe. Polymnia, of meditative song, Cheering the weak, and ne Rg ge the strong; The hymn sublime still helps the world along. Uranila—goddess of the star-bright train! Shower heaven's light down on this earthly fane, Where “stars” are symbols of thy lustrous reign. There is something patriotic and a oy in the following lines, selected from the Three Stages.“ in which Mr. Garrett pays a glowing tribute to one of Missouri's greatest statesmen: BENTON, Happy the land whose sons supremely great Pronounced the people sovereign in the State; Who, by the West, the way of Empire p To reach again their Eastern Fatherland, Whose beacons flash far o'er the circling seas, And light the rear of darkened centuries. Honor to him whose prescient sight begun To look for India toward the setting sun. Whose mind, far piercing, saw the coming day, When heights would bear the iron way. Crags yielded to his voice that never bent Before the storms that shook the firmament. He spoke: the truth was living on his tongue, And with his words the world's horizon rung: Turns 1s THE East. Beyond the mouatains where The sun sank down we went, and found it there. Bright, burning words—fit crown for his career; Star of the West! The brightes: in our sphere. Until the world in swallowing darkness drops His light will linger on the mountain tops. We, with the daring which his presence lent, Should hew a mountain for his monument! High on its peak, in characters of flame Among the stars should glitter BenTon’s name. From the same poem are selected the followin lines, descriptive and at the same time eulogistic o the Mississippi River: THE FATHER OF WATERS. Down from the frozen cloud-land of the North This genius of the valley wanders forth, Distilling snows beneath his vapory wings To strew bis southern course with 2 springs. He touches with his watery wand the bills, And dancing down their sides come laughing rilis, Which mingle colors as they onward glide And paint the landscape spread on every side. Flushed by the river-god's engaging wiles, The country’s face b reaks forth in joyous smiles. Upon the upland plain he lays his hand, And marveious cities rise at his command— Endowed with all that nature's stores can give, The magic of his spirit bids them live. Unbarred he rolls upon his wheeling throne From endless snow to endless summer's zone, And pours out treasures for the people's needs, Who call him Father“ for bis generous deeds. + The frontier city, fed with such supplies, Becomes tue object of its own surprise. From barbarous tribes against its growth arrayed It draws its life by alchemy of trade. The traders move their posts to mountains far Where trappers roam and wage their savage war; The forts are razed, block houses disappear, And merchants count their thousands year by year; The mighty river bears upon his b The teeming products of tne great Northwest. Mr. Garrett was a dramatic critic for probably twenty years. He wrote one or two plays, and had numerous intimate ——e friends among actors and actresses. The brightest stars of the past two decades knew him well, and appreciated his friend- ship, for he did much towards building the reputa- tions which many of them obtained. During hs career as a critic he wrote beautiful praises A the best performers that have been preserved by the individuals of whom they were spoken, and amon the really tic and charming creatures of bis brain is the following graceful tribute to memory of ADELAIDE NEILSON. ‘The actress is dead! The obituaries have all been written, and, regardless of their varied color ang to readers have formed their own estimate of the lite and work and worth of Adelaide Neil- son. It is safe to say that the verdict is one of universal admiration. The sentiment is respect, andthe feeling sincere grief. A life of honest, earnest, conscientious endeavor can gafely trust to t mortem criticism. The truth has alread — recorded in the work done, and falseh when the subject is forever beyond its reach and cannot reply, is its own suflicieat commentary upon the author or disseminator. “For many years no death in the dramatic pro- fession has awakened so deep and general a tooling ness as the Adelaide Neilson It un an strange as n blotting from the sky of a ht star upon which ali eyes were at that momen be bade us a professional farewell in view ust her return to England n permanent 3 from public lif . e hope of seeing and radiant woman was her last words cherish Tbe death of this rare Beautiful ing them in the shape of newspaper scraps, will be | | est, and it is ibly one of the best th in the book.

Recent ‘Sermons, | — —— Denouncing Whisky, Rock Candy, Bitters, Progressive Euchre, the German, the Arm-Clutch, Tight- Squeeze Buggies and Other Evils. . The followine are extracts from the sermon preached by the Rev. Sam Jones at Plattsburg, Mo., last Sunday morning, taken from the verbatim report published by the Globe-Democrat: WHISKY, DEMIJOHNS AND BOTTLES. I want to tell you another thing. I have a perfect contempt fora man or woman that stands Around and abuses bar-rooms—barkeepers, I mean —put it barkeepers instead of bar-rooms—God knows there isn't a place this side of heil that I hate worse than a room. Iam not mad with the men. That ain't it. I am mad with the whisky and demijohns and botiles. My Lord! I have got a right to be and I'll never get any more friendly with them in heaven or on earth. Here now in Clinton County, Plattsburg—I understand he have fought it out of that town; you have no ‘rooms, but you sell about as much as you did when you legalized it, or a little more. When we fought whisky out of my home, Cartersvilie, in Barten County, Ga., they tried that game down there. I said: Boys., I'll give $50 a giass to any man in this com- munity who will buy a drop of whisky in this community, if he he will just go before the Judge and swear that he has bought it.” That broke up haif the traffic. Next Isaid: “If you sell longer than ten days I will go to New York and employ detectives and any that I catgh I will spend $200 to prosecute, and if the Judge on the bench don't pop you in the Pen, I will denounce him as particeps criminis in that business. Lord bless you, I cleaned them up that lick, [Laughter.} I'm a small potato, and stringy at that, but if you had just one Sam Jones in Plattsburg he would clean business up for you. I'll say that much. CHURCH-GOING DRUNKARDS. Whatsoever aman soweth, that shall he also reap. If you sow whisky, you'll reap drunkards. Look here, brethren and fellow citizens, let's come up in sol d phalanx and say, No man shall sell it in our land. Weare done with it iu this community for- ever. [Amen.] If you sell it illegally we will put ou in the Pen [Amen] and if we let you sell it lly we want you to put us in.” [Amen] Now, what do you say? We will swap places witch you. An old cussin' blackmouth, 2. barkeeper is a gentieman and a scholar and a Christian to the town that will give him license to sell liquor. [Amen.] Lopen my eyes at one glance, and 1 say tnat if the church of God will quit drinking whisky, we will starve out half of these bar- rooms in twelve months. [Amen.] And I say again that if we members of the church would vote ike we pray, we would vote it out before breakfast in the morning. [Amen.] God has got a quarrel on band with America on this question of liquor. And above all things, no matter how I vote, God being my helper, no man from this day on and forever shallever teuchadrup of whisky, and gay he did it because he saw m, drink it. Do you hear that? An old member of the Church walking out of a grocery and wiping his mouth and saying: “I don’t think there’s any harminadram.’’ You infernai old humbug. you! [Laughter.] The old sinner! With chiidren of his own, and he couldn't lay bis hand on one of their heads and to save bis life say: “This bor won't die drunk.” The oid sinner— wiping his mouth and saying: “I never could see any harm in a dram. You old devil, you! [Laugh- ter.] And it will take the combined powers of God and his church to keep our boys out of druakards’ raves, and that old father of a family drinking it ke a fish and saying he sees no harm init. Lord God, pity, us. We'll debauch this country before we die. STIRRING A TODDY. The biggest fool God's eyes ever look on is the wife that will stir a toddy for her old toper hus- band. [Sensation.] Do you hear that? Next time he wants you to stir, yousay: ‘Look here, you old dog, you go oa down and get some infernal bar- keeper to stir this toddy for you. It's bad enough for him, but I'll never stir your toddies for you.” God pity the wife that has gone in partnership with tue devil to get her husband to hell. [Sensa- tion. Th women of this country are not all exactly sound on this temperance question. They may be now, but they had a leap year party over here in Plattsburz, and some of the frogs got too drunk to leap [sensation] and they stayed all night, and came heme sober and jumped next morning. . ROCK OANDY. Their only saving clause to the thing was, they put rock candy in it. Rock candy! Well, the devil would as soon a fool wouid kill himself drinking it with rock can iy in it as any way in the world. WHISKY IN ITS RIGHT PLACE. Hear me, teilow citizens. To-day, before God, I believe whisky isa good thing in its place, and I believe its place is in heil, and if I ever go there [il keep drunk all the time, but if I know myself l' never drink any of it on this side of there. Do you bear that? There is nothing in God Almighty’s worid that whisky is good for that there ain't some- thing better for it than whisky. DOCTORS WHO PRESCRIBE WHISKY.* One of Gods chiidren gets sick, and he has to bolt over te a bar- room and get a bottle of the worst enemy God ever had to cure him; and one of the great curses ofthis country is doctors. God ity the poor littie old quack no is running round oose with his saddie-bags full of whiscy. No matter what the complaint, the fellow says, “Just take a little bitters and you'll be weil” God pity you; you ain't fit to be a dog, much less to bea doc- tor. [Amen.] There's many a fellow in hell to-day, and the doctor started him there by prosrcibing whisky. Iwill never prescrive whisky for a man until he has been dead twenty-fourhours. I mryht give it toa woman if I thought she would die next day, but I wouldn't give it to ber it I thought she would get well. Do you hear that? And one of these Voetoi'’s, rurming chrough the country pre- Boke “ * Nn scrib whisky, is notuipg more nor less than an iufer traveling bar-room. That's all he is. I had rather small-pox or cholera would come to my house than to have such a doctor as that come over my threshold. What do i mean by that? I mean that if cholera comes and kills my boy, he will go Lin the twinkling of an eye; but if a his gets hold of him he is gone, soul and lfor ever; and I say, give me cholera rather ~whisky. Cholera can kill the body mighty quick, but cholera never kills a man's soul. Wat does CARDS. Sow reap gamblers. Do you know that nine g ts out of every ten in America come out of Chris homes? Do you know that? God pity the old st or Methodist or Presbyterian, or the old sinner that cannot run his home without a deck of carda, [Ames.] Say amen, all of you. {Amen.] =~ 2 ., r ROGRESSIVE EUCHRE. ressive eichre! Ilike that adjective there. It means motion to hell, aud some of you are nearly there. Frogtessive euchre! There's a Campbeilite Christian with a Baptist pillar and a Methodist deacon sitting dewmn in the house playing pro- gressive euchre. 1 wouldn't let my cook ive euthre, because she’s a member of the church, and she sh®uidn't sit there and violate her * thing that ever harmed the I know cards have, and I know ow the german has.

It is time for us to call a halt with these moonlight rides, and these tight- squeeze bugzies, and these arm- clutch move- ments. I tell you it is time to call a halt to-day. [Amen.] Isay l won't start that. You may call mean impure fellow,if you wat to, and say Jones is licentious if you want to, but Jones never rode with a girl in a tight-squeeze buggy. He never took the arm-clutch on his wife. I would lose my respect for my wife if she would waik out on the street with me holding her arm that way in ublic. Put that down, Mr. Reporter, please. Laughter. | “sm DUDES SHOULD BE BOILED DOWN. Last Sunday evening Brother Leftwitch, after I had talked about this arm clutch, there was young bucks would go out and get their girls and get the clutch on them, and just parade over this ground. I think, to my mind, if you could catch adozen of these little dudes and boil them down, that all the real solid substance you could get out of them wouldn't make a thimble full of caives’ foot jelly, the whole thing. Yes, sir, boiled down. (Laughter. } Little old boneless animai walking out; looks like he was melied and poured into his breeches, just so tight he can't sit down in them. jLaughter.] You see him start down the street. He's got a regular stand-up, knock-me-down, get-out-of-the- way movement upon him. Lord have mercy on him. Ialways want to laugh when I come to these things.

Already some 850 men have signified their intention of participating, and it is expected that fully 500 will leave here on Sunday morning, two weeks from to-morrow. The troops will be met at the Sedalia Depot by a delegation of citizens of the town and escorted to the camp grour@is in a park near by. It is Col. Meier's inten- tion to make the encampment one of instruction, and for that reason he hopes that every active member of the regiment will take part in it. A number of the men complain that it will be impossible to ob- tain a leave of absence from their employers for so long a time, yet some of these same men can always manage to get off to go to competitive drills at other cities, If three or four companies can find time to go to Jacksonville, III., next September, because they hope to derive some slight pecuniary advantage from it, there is positively no excuse for their absence from the encampment in August, There can be no mistake about the preferences of the merchants, who support the local militia, in the matter were the question presented to them uarely; Would you rather that your employes should attend an encampment for instruction, or that they should participate in a competitive drill for pleasure aud a prize? Few if any of them would refuse a leave of absence for the encamp- ment and grant one fora competitive drill. Any captain who can turn outa command twenty-four strong fora prize drili should without any diffl- culty turn out the same number at Sedalia. Sergent Sheahan of the Busch Zouaves states that negotiations are in progress between the Londoa Exposition agent and the Zoos forthe engagement of the company for a short season at the Expositioa. The Zoos ask for $3,000 cash and ali — and it is very prob- able at their request will be acceded to. Mr. Adolphus Busch, president of the company. is at present in the Kast arranging for the purc of a complete set of new uniforms for the command. Sampies of cloth have been re- ceived by Captain Roemer to select from, which, when made up, will cost $65 per suis. If the Lon- doa engagement is consummated the company will visit Berlin and Paris before returning home. A statement published in the Postr-Disparca last week calling attention to the fact that the National Guard Armory was without a flag to raise at half mast on the occasion of General Grant's death, led Mr. J. S. Ticknor to remember that he possessed one suitable for the building, and un Tuuraday last he presented a handsome silk flag, over thirty feet in length, tothe First Regiment, N. G. M., which heuceforth will fly from the flag - staff of tne Armory. It has been generally noticed and remarked that, with a single 22 every crack company which participates in impetitive drilis goea to pieces for several months after returning from a drill. and that it is with the greatest difficulty that the mea can be prevailed upon to attend practice drilis. Few, if any, of them hoid the palm for a very long time, and when they break, they do the business completely, and drop clear out of sight. A search of the Armory last week revealed the 400 mem- ort will be the E. D. in that capacity, but his position is that of colonel of the First Regimeat. Some of tne officers suggest that it wouida’t be a bad idea for Governor Marmaduke to appoint Meier a 8 That would mean one step upw ali around. Sergeant Chapman of Company K has left the city toreside at Hot Springs, Arkansas. Chapman for years past has mourished an ambition to become secvnd lieutenant of his company. He was one of the best drilled men in the regiment, and had he remained a while longer would doubtiess nave been offered a commission in one of the other compa- nies. SO perishes a worthy ambition upon tae verge of acuieving its object. Tne First Regiment will have 400 uniformed men in line in the parade next Saturday, the date of Geu. Grant's funefal.

By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New Haven, Coxn., August 1.—At a meeting in this city last night representatives of the various companies of the Second Regiment, Connecticut National Gaurds, voted to take part in the funeral of Gen. Grant. All of the companies will be in line with full ranks. The other regiments of the State will probably join with the Second as escort to Governor Harrison and his staff. From every part of the State come reports that the Grand Army posts will participate, and almost without exception the independent military organizations will attend. Excursion trains will run to New York on the day of the funeral, and it is expected that thousands of Connecticut people will visit the city to witness the funeral procession. In all the towns and cities the local authorities have passed resolu- tions in honor of the illustrious dead, and in Hart- ford and elsewhere memorial services are to be held on the day of the i fu- neral. Throughout Connecticut evidences abound of the deep love for Gen. Granl, and on every hand are to be seen emblems of mourning for his death. In Bridgéport, New Haven, Meriden, Hartfor Waterbury, New London and the larger towns o the State, business houses and private residences are draped er display national colors at half-mast. In the country places the same spiritis shown, On farm houses and on the cozy village cottage many a flag-staff has been raised within the past few days, and there is scarcely a public building in all the State that has not some token of the national sorrow. Gen. Grant was better known and much ottener seen in Connecticut than by the people of any other New England State. EVERYWHERE HE WAS A ‘HERO. His tripto New Haven and to Hartford are remembered all along the line. He could never travel incog through Connecticut. A story is told of how he attempted this once, not long after the war. He got as far as Stamford, unheraded. There his train had to lay over for a few minutes for some railroad reason, and the General seeking a whiff of fresh air, ventured to the rear platform. Nobody was in sight when he opened the door; be- fore it was fairly shut, a small army had assembled. An old veteran, employed in some subordinate capacity at the station, had seen the Commander's face, and wild witn enthusiasm, had sent up shouts that echoed and reechoed until the town had been aroused and called to join in the demonstration, and, as the tradition goes, the train waited longer than it was ordered to wait, for conductor, engineer, fireman and brakemen were all in the deptus of the crowd of cheering citizens who kept up their vociferous applause till long after the modest soldier had BEATEN HIS HASTY RETREAT and was lost to sight behind the curtains of the coach. In New Haven, at the Army of the Po- tomac reunion, he was accompanied by gallant Phil. Sheridan, and the two took in the beauties of the Yale town together. Late in the day Gen. Sheridan was reeling off a story to deligh com- panions up on Chapel street, when some over- rash person, evidently ‘designing to o favor wita Gen. Sheridan, was idi- otically indiscreet enough to say something uncomplimentary of Gen. Grant, who had just been hurried away to diuner as the guest of a prom- inent citizen. Gen. Sheridan listened with a con- temptuous look on his sun-browned face, but he said not a word until the New Havener had quite finished his comments, explaining how Gen, Grant's giory had all been woa at the expense of somebody else. He wasn't the dashing, briliant leader that Sheridan was; he was chiefly, indeed, the possessor of a fictitious name, his renown could not be last- ing. Then Pail Sheridan spoke. “You talk like an ass, -was what he said, only a little more embeil- ished by able-bodied adjectives. ‘You talk like an ass. Gen. Grant has not half the credit that belongs to. him, for 1 know and everybody who has been close to him knows, that he has taken glory from himself again again to give it to men who were under him.” ‘The veterans ap- plauded, and Gen. Sheridan continued in a manner that was actually fierce: “If Grant had chosen to have itso there would have been no other name heard of on the Union side in the last part of the war.” The fact is he's unjust to himself in order to bé genereus to others. ‘alk about Grant’s fictitious name! MAN, YOU ARE AN 488! GOOD Dr.“ The New Havener took the gentle hint, his flattery had not worked. He had |! a thing or two, and his wisdom was pretty well seasoned with sad- ness. While in artford as the guest of Marshal Jewell, Gen, Grant received a roughly penciled note ina commen envelope, to which the name of a woman was signed. He was President then, and the reception tendered him by Governor Jewell had attracted all the prominent men of the State. It was while he was in the midst of the evening's pleasures that the unpretentious note was put into his hands by a young politician, who affected ta think it a good joke that anybody should presume to intrude upon the President under such circumstances, especially an old woman in tatters,“ as he put it. It was with no thought that Gen. Grant would give any heed to the missive that he had brought it in, but rather he had done the errand with a view to making himself conspicuous and to add to the evening's jollity. “You need not bother about her,” he said to the President. “I sent her away—told her that you were not here to be bored.” General Grant's response shocked the you man. “Where 1s this woman? Where can I fin her!“ he asked, and he WALKED ABRUPTLY FROM THE ROOM. The letter he had received, scrawled in lead pencil and with marked defects of orthography, had briefly told a pitiful tale. “‘My son fought in your army.“ it said in substance, “and be was killed by rebel ballets while fighting for you. Be- he died he wrote me a letter which told about how noble a man you were and he said you would loo« eut for his mother, and I baven't bad yin she was going slowly up the street. The old soldier strode afterher. She standing bareheaded in the moonlight beside her. He said not much, but the tears she sned alter that were thoseof joy.

CYCLING CHAT. 3 nn The Dispute About “‘Makers’ Amateurs” Growing Very Warm. —_— 1 What Local Wheelmen Think—An Kxpert From the East Who Will Get a Warm Reception—Bicycle News, Notes and Gossip. The war between the opponents and defenders of makers’ amateurs has reached this city, and the discussions the past week have materially tended to increase the temperature at the agencies and the club houses. That the question is now before the League of American Wheelmen in such a defl- nite and decided shape that it must be finally set- tled in the next few months, is not doubted by those who know auything of the sentiment and temper that stood back of the action taken at the Buffalo National meet, and the spirit that has in} spired the protests which have greeted Powell, Webber and other amateurs at recent races. But the element that is trying to force these men out has a sharp battle before it. They will have to op- those who say that the new pian of exclusion will be the death of interest in amateur races; that the old plan has brought bicycling to what it is by keeping in the ranks of amateurs men who can maso amateurs do their best; that the proposed idea carrying all the mazers amateurs will al once enter the professional ranks, and those real and genuine amateurs who are too fast to stay behind with the remaining slew goers will thus be forced in with them. On the other hand it is understood that the makers amateurs are professionals in reality; tnat they are paid during the summer months, aud their wages go ou atthe factory, say, while their traveling expenses are paid tney are furn with trainers; that they, devote their entire time to perfecung themselves in wheeling, which cannot be done oy tuose who are in other vocations, and that thus amateurs are ata decided disadvantage. To tae first ovjection tueir detenders answer that u is impossible to tell what is an amateur at all, then, and they ask if under a strict construction of the rule Cola Stone would have to be considered a pro- fessional. They —— to the, fact that really there is no difference tween the proceeds he derives from sale of the machines and the wages of such men as Powell, woo are salaried. From the stand- point of political economy, they say in each case wages and wages only have been received, and that Stone's business ia tile is to ride his wheel as fast as he can. It may be tnat tue force of the statements outlined above have come home to Cola, inasmuch as he bas already taxen decided ground agaimst ruling Makers’ amateurs out. Provably he sees that with the manufacturers’ men out he would have a walk-over, and no chance todevelop. He is confident it will ve a fatal step so tar as attracting public attention to amateur meetings is concerned, uud that nothing snould be dove whica, in any way, may detract from that interest and tion which are new exhioited by tue public, and which might be lessened if not destroyed by the practical application of a theory wnica wouid rob amateur races of nearly all their attractio nawe- ly: contests by speedy riders. ‘ihe possivilily of Coia Stone being cOmpelied eitner by force or by expe diency to eater the proiessionai arena is not an agreeable one to thoye who would disuke to see St. Louis thus summarily deprived of her amateur champion. * WILL COME TO sr. LOUIS. S. G. Whittaxer, the Boston rider, will hereafter reside in St. Louis and will have cuarge of the bi- cycle department at tae Summons Hardware Com- pany. he heid a long-distance record sometime ago, and when it was announced that he would take part in the 1U0-mile road race great hopes were wn- vertained that he would make Cola Stone do his best. But, like tue rest of them, he paled his ineffectuai fire when he saw and beara of Stones preparatory practice on the road. Wailtaxer rides the Royal Mau and is the only mau in this country who has dune anything to Kloruy we Eugish wheel. Simmons is getting bim aere to boom the Royal Mall, hien has nod veen selling as fast aas was expected, but the Boston man will flod that bis path will noc be strewa with roses if he expects to ride down the other is bere. it would be an interesting sight to see Whittaker start out on a De Soto trip with his Koyal Mail to ride down Com on his Victor, aud watch the man wear out his shoes waiking up Rogers’ or the »Fruce Hill while the St. Louw champion was going up hands off. The faci is, there are no tougu riders in the city except those on the Victor, Expert and Star wheels, and just now these three have the call.

CHATROLOGY. . Men's 2 4 the Manner in Which They sit Down. The Timid Person Who Perches-on the Edge of Furniture—A Gally In- dividual Whose Heels Are Higher Than His Head—The Nervous Young Lover—Attitudes That Are Familiar. Tnere is as much variety in sitting down as there isinthe manner of inviting a person to sit down, and perhaps the style of the invitation has much to do with the attitude of the man whoeither willingly or perforce accgpts it: This, of course, does not include the person whe miscaleulates the height of a chair, and lets himself go when within a few inches of the top; or the other unfortunate who thinks a chair is there and does not learn his mis- take until the awful moment just before his coat- tails strike the floor. The attitude applies only to those who get a chance to sit down at their leisure— those who accept the cheerful hospitality which is embodied in the open-souled Hiber- nian “Sis-seeshi” the German Setzen sie,“ or the American Tabs off your things and rest yourself.” As soon as the invitation is accepted then comes the attitude, and this attitude is in ninety-nine cases out of @ hundred indicative of the temperament of the sitter. If itdoes not present the owner of the attitude in his normal frame of mind, it at least reveals its condition at the time when the observa- tion is taken. Men who study human nature will tell you that this is a fact, and that a person's manner of sitting down is just as good a key to the investigation of his character as are the — — his head or the lines in the palms of his hand. Post-DisPaTcH artist has made several sketch Bs 65 illustrate this theory. This is the attitude of wy and it may have for its foundation ulness, meee, or an overweening — of res for the other persons present at the time. It manifests a mental condition of semi- bewilderment that makes a man careful of the fur- niture and indifferent to his own personal appear- ance. A country editor striking arailroad manager for a pass to San Francisco will be strongly tempted tosit bimself down in this style while waiting for the chief clerk to fill out the blank, or the office boy to come back with information regarding the presence or absence of his name from the black list. It is easy, too, to imagine a young man sitting down in this style when he is holding his first seance with the father of the girl he wants to marry. The job makes him nervous, and he never thinks as he teeters on the edge of the chair that his attitude is ridiculous, and is calculated to make the old man regard him as an unusual admixture of chump and gawk. Lowell’s hero no doubt sat down in this way when he went courtin’ uldy: “He kin’ o literea on the mat, Some doubtfie o' the seekle, His heart kep’ goin’ pity-pat, But hern went pity-zekre Nr * This is familiarity. It is a relaxation of the mus- cles and a general letting-down of the anatomy from the severity which etiquette imposes. Such an attitude is common during business hours, {n the — offices and counting-rooms that will tolerate — kind of thing. The man who assumes it is a friend or distant relation, who, presum- eorex or not caring that he is interfering with — neas to any extent, never feels a bit worried a sitting around and chinning all day long, 3 — is given an acute hint to skip. In newspaper offices« men of this kind haunt the exchange editor and make his life bright and his shears vicious, — — ple m that this sort of ay say : | een when they say so. This is ease. You can see the man of means en- his tus it in his beautifuily cushioned ae in luxuriously — thsoee home, aad BI tag Em the ragged, bloated, bleary — oon the same serene condition of miei — he graces a park bench and stretches his arms alon 0g its back apparentiy as well satisfied with bimsel end his surroundings as if he were the Khedive of ptor the Imam of Cahokia. This is the attitude that nightfall usually brings, when Every care of the day Folds its tent like the Arab, And silently steals away. THE GRANT PAGEANT.

Their Labors at an End, They Are Seeing the Sights To-day. The German-American Teachers’ Association concluded their labors yesterday and were last night entertained by the Germania Club. To-day they are riding around in open carriages and will visit all the places of interest in this locality and wind up with a spread at the Fair Grounds. To-night most of the visiting teach- ers will probably leave for their homes. The commers tendered last evening by the Ger- mania Club to members gf the Association proved a success in the fullest sense of the word. The garden attached to the club house was brilliantly lighted by electricity, and the werd “Willkommen” shone forth in a blaze of light at the en- trance to the garden. The temperature was very agreeable, as the rain of the afternoon had cooied the atmosphere very notice- ably. After a few selections had been rendered by the orchestra Mr. A. Krieckhaus, on behalf of the Germania Club, weicomed the guests and said, now that the labors of the convention were ended, the Germania Club would endeavor to provide an even- ing’s amusement as best lay in their power. After a This is gall. The attitude is pure American. It is a combination of lengthy address, in which he spoke of the fight Germans had in earlier years to obtain a foothold in America, and to what a large extent final success was due to the bard work of German teachers, Mr. Ring of St. Paul expressed the thanks of the convention for their cordial welcome. Mr. Methudy then took the floor in response to the toast “Our Guests.“ and dwelt at some length on the important positions oc- cupied by the teachers, and said he was thankful the trust was placed in — po interesting manner. 1 Soldanin a well-studied and masterly effort then introduced the toast Our Ladies,” which was replied to Milwaukee, her’s on were then dis- tributed and the remainder of the evening was spent in song.
