THE GRANDEST HEATER IN THE WORLD. -G@& * cupants of the buildings in the neighborhood of Third and Locust streets heard a low rumbling noise. A moment after there was a crash that could have been heard ten blocks away, and a huge cloud of dust rolled up from a spot just north of Locust street, filling the street and rising high above the topsof the buildings. The few passers-by fied at the noise and the sight of the dust. From the by-streets, at- tracted by the concussion, came running a crowd of men and boys. As the dust slowly settled it was seen thatthe spot that hada few moments before been cov- ered by the two three-story buildings occupied by Flesh & Mookand Bailey, Sage & Co., 414 and 416 North Third street, was a heap of broken bricks, mortar, splintered timber and glass. The three buildings, 414, 416 and 418 Third street, were practically one. They were plain old-fashioned three-story structures. The first building to the south, No. 414, was occupied by Flesh & Mook. It was a complete wreck. The roof had fallen in sections, and the front wall had caved in upon it. The ceiling of the first floor had formed a sort ot arch, which left a small open space atthe front of the building next the street. With the fall of the Flesh & Mook building the wall which saparated it from the building adjoining, No. 416, had gone down, taking with it the roof and all the floors of the building, leaving there wall swaying and swinging in front of the wreck. AN ALARM TURNED IN. Without delay an alarm was turned in from box 26, Third and Locust streets, which brought the fire department to the scene. Be- fore the arrival of the firemen, an enormous crowd had gathered and was standing in dangerous proximity to the swaying wall. From the interior of the fallen dullding could be heard the cries of a man evidently imprisoned under the ruins. The rumor spread rapidly that there were a dozen—20to50 men under the fallen walls. There were calls for some one to go to the assistance of the prisoners, but no one volunteered. One or two bad frightened men stood near the building, an looked helplessly at it. Their faces were begrimed with dirt, and their clothes white with the powdered mortar. They had been in the building just as the collapse oc- curred and had made their escape, how, many ofthem didnot know. To those who stood around them they said that, as nearly as the knew, there had been eleven men in the Flies & Mook buliding and four in the building of Bailey, Sage & Co., and they thought that most of them had aped. Theycould form no idea how man ere in the ruins. RESCUING THE INJURED MAN. With the arrival of the depurtmentthe crowd was run back and ropes stretched across the street. The firemen went straight to the Flesh & Mook -building whence the cries roceeded, A pile of half-rotten timbers rom the building lay on the sidewalk. A few timbers biocked the archway formed by the rnins. They were quickiy pulled away and the sufferer was seen to be pinioned under the ends of the timbers. His face was biack with dirt, his clothing was torn, and his arms, which were half bare, were cut in a dozen places. Nothing was to be done but to release him, and the energies of all the fre boys there were office when we heard the buliding falling. I ran out the south door, and be tried to get out, but the ceiling came down and caught him. Every manin the building got out except Steffen. Ido not know what caused the building to fall down, except that it was worn out you can see by these rotten timbers laying over the sidewalk. I noticed for two or three days thatthe doors were very hard to close, and have no doubt the building was slowly falling. HERBERT FERRIS, of the same establishment, was on the second floor when the ao fell. ‘‘There were with me, he said, ‘‘Bill Smith, Fred Mook, John Holler, Frank Kuntz, Frank La Baree, Henry Wanderer and Jno. Hahn. When we heard the walls crack we ran to the rear of the room, climbed out of the window on an exten- sion of the first floor, and then climbed down a ladder tothe ground. No one was lost or hurt. All have been accounted for. DAVID ERBELDING, a painter in the employ of Flesh & Mook, said, ‘*] was sitting by the side of August Steffen, eating my dinner, when the plaster began fall- ing from the walls. saw the building was coming down and st d to save ourselves and I went out the back way safely and Steffen tried to get out the front way. He was caught under the timbers as they fell. There was nothing in the building but painters’ stock, and not a great deal of that. NO MORE HURT. For a time it was believed that there were othersintheruins. There was a sound in the rear of the building of Bailey, Sage & Co. as though there was some one throwing bricks and it was surmised that some one was lying there ina speechiess condition, on- deavoring to attract attention in this way. The roll of the employes of Flesh & Mook and Balley, Sage & Co. s cailed, however, and it was found that all were accounted for and safe with the ex- ception of Steffen. It was rumored that a Western Union Telegraph messenger had been killed by the — timbers, but no injured boy could be found. T. H. SAGE hada remarkable escape. He said: ‘‘I was down-stairs when I noticed the first indications of the accident, and imme- diatel went up-stairs, where some of the men were workin and told them they had better get out. went down stairs and passed from the front te the back after locking the safe and started out towards the back. I wasn’t a moment too soon. The crush occurred just then. Something struck me on the forehead, cutting me slightly. All the * in our building escaped safely. I ave heard from each of them. J. A. Roscoe and Chas Sapper were on the second floor and gat out 3 the rear over the adjoining roof, Mr. . „ Denny was on the first floor but got out. Robert Leeker, a messenger boy had just been sent out with the wagon by Mr. Denny afew moments before the accident. The wreck shows where the crash oc- cured. There was nothing in the third story of our bnilding to cause it, as there were only two small presses in that corner. The ruin shows that it was the next building which gave way.’’ RICHARD DENNEY vas in the stationery department of “Bailey, Sage & Co., when the fall occurred. ‘‘The stock was full“ he said, and worth I should think about $15, 000. The building never gave an signs offalling. Wenever heard that the wali of No. 418 was buiging out. Our building was remodeled somewhat before we went into it in January and we considered it safe. Besides Mr. Bage and myself there were two printers in the building, the other employes having been given a half holi- a AP ‘oO one was injured in our establish- ment.’ EDINBURG, May 80.—The search for the bodies of the miners who lost their lives by the explosion in the Udston coal pit at Blan- tyre, in Lanarkshire, still continues. Sixty- two bodies have thus far been recovered. Italy. THE VATICAN AND QUIRINAL. ROME, May 30.—The Osservatore Romano in- terprets the Pope’s utterance in his allocution as meaning that no reconciliation is possible between the Vatican and the Quirinal without the restitution of the Pope’s temporal power. Well- informed circles declare that the Osserv- atore Romano only echoes the feeling of the Intransigeant party of the Vatican. The Re- forma, the Government organ, says that a reconciliation t only a question of time, and that Italy can wait calmly. Austria. BIG POSTAL ROBBERY.

New dynamite outrages are reported. Mexico. THE EARTHQUAKE. Crry OF Mexico, via Galveston, May 30.—Up to 10 o’ clock this morning no second shock of earthquake had been experienced, and this is fortunate, as some high and mod- ern buildings, constructed of light, porous stone, unfit for lofty buildings, are badly cracked, and might easily fall under addi- tional strain. A very heavy rain fell during the night, and cool- er weather prevails. The shock was much feltinthe high building on Cienco do Mayo street, occupied by the United States Consul-General. Examination is now being made of roof tops by the city officials on ae- count of the danger arising from rotten beams supporting a heavy load of tiles. Recently, in the Palace of Justice, where the courts sit, the roof fell in. Luckily the room was unoccupied at the time. The earthquake shock has created fresh alarm about the safety of the roofs in buildings of great age. R The Dominion. REMOVAL OF TRADES RESTRICTIONS. Orrowa, Ont., May 30.—At a special meeting of the Farmers’ Institute for the County of On- tario a resolution declaring in favor of the re- moval of all trade restrictions between Canada and the United States was carried wunani- mously. THREE MEN KILLED. will be defeated. The con ative element in both master Masons and carpenters is composed of those contractors almost entirely dependent upon union labor. In many cases another pro- tracted strike means bankruptcy tothe smaller contracting carpenters. Many of the leading master carpenters are owners of sash, door biind and planing-mills, the ownership ok which gives them a great advantage in a strike or lock-out. An analysis of the situation proves that the strike bas resolved itself into a contest between the master masons and their em- loves, the bricklayers and hodcarriers, who ve formed an offensive and defensive alll- ance. The other trades represented in the Butiders’ and Traders’ Exchange are in a state of armed neutrality, and while in active sym- pathy with the master masons are afraid to render any practical support. The mas- ter masons will depend almost entirely upon brieklayers other cities. The next few days will demonstrate to what extent this sourse can be utilized. The answers to ‘the advertisements Saturday were engouraging, and it is belleved that plenty of good men can be secured. The lead- ers of the bricklayers promise that no violence will be offered to any of t imported brick- layers. Every effort will used, however, to induce the new-comers to join the union and all the strategems of modern strikes will be brought into play. BELLEVILLE, DecoratioN Day Observed by Memorial Services at Belleville, Lebanon and Shiloh. The memorial services held to-day at Wal- nut Hill Cemetery, where the soldiers are buried, were of a more impressive charaeter than usual, and there was a larger crowd in attendance than there has been for years.

PRILADBIP RIA, Fa., May do. -A Washington dispatch to the Times says: For some days & By Telegraph to the Post-DisraTcn. ConcorD, N. H., May 20. —The opposition in hia own party to Wm. E. Chandler's Senatorial aspirations is beginning tocrop out in public. Although there ts yet no opposing Republican candidate, there ig no longer any doubt that his nomination, it secured in equens, will be bolted by a Republican faction large enough to hold the balanee of power. Mr. Chandler has antagonized many of the party leaders, but the there hag been more or less informal talk in fend Administration circles on the tariff question. From intimations dropped in these quarters it may be announced that Secretary Fairehild is seriousty contemplating a movement, with the approbation of the President and his col- leagues, looking to a concentration of the Democrats in the House of RKepresen- tatives and the Senate upon & meas ure of tariff reduction. After careful inguiry it has been ascertained that every member of the Cabinet is favorable to sucha programme. After the experience of the past two Congresses the President is convinced that but one course remains open to the Demo- cratic party, and that is the formulation ofa bill in consultation with such men as Randall and Carlisle and others, representing the di- verse positions of Democratic sen- timent on the subject, for the pur- pose of bringing ‘them together upon some common ground of agreement. The President has seen for some time that an issue will be made on the tariff, and bas ur that it would be mores acious to get to work 8 onan and prepare a bill to be submitted to 88 as a measure of Administration poll- 8 t an to let the 2 continue to play havoc as afirebrand in the ranks of the party. It is proposed to make the bill an Administra- tion question in the House and thus bring it before the people as a distinctive issue upon which the Democratic party will stand in the next campaign. Jud from the present situation of affairs among t party leaders, it will take a large amount of pressure to bring the 1 — views of Mesars. Carlisle and dall togeth- er. It has been suggested in the Treasury cir- cles that Kentucky influence, the tobacco men, and the protectio 2 Democrats can only reach a basis of settlement by pooling their differénces and evolving some sort of a compromise.

EAST Sr. LOUIS. A Bloody Fight in Which Young Irwin Is Very Seriously Injured. Last evening shortly before 7 o’clock a des- perate fight occurred at the intersection of Collinsville and St. Clair avenues. The com- batants were the Irwin boys and Frank John- son of this city and a party of hunters from St. Louls. The hunters were driving down Col- linsville avenue on ther way home, and when near St. Clair avenue they became involved in a quarrel with the Irwins, who were on the sidewalk. he stories told as to the origin ofthe quarrel are conflicting. After a war of words Willam Ir- win attempted to pulione ofthe hunters out of the wagon and then the fight began. Ail four of the hunters sprung out of the wagon and a battie with stones between them and the three Irwins and Johnson ensued. The mis- siles were huried with deadly precision, and were struck and — ured. Will tIrwin was bit in the © with a large stone and felled to the sees and while his three companions were ept at bay by three of the — the fourth of the strangers ran 1 r man and kicked and beat him — htful man- ner. When the elder of e Irwins fell the others an shouting for help and a crowd of about 200 rushing from all scene. The hunters were not at all awed by the crowd, whom they had reason to suppose would take the part of the Irwins, and kept u the fire of stones at their antagonists wit such a determination tempted to interfere. Shortly after Irwin had —— 80 Ree : done up“ that he could no further assistance to his 88 t and Jobnson fled, leaving the fleid to the ters.

There have been but few decoration days since the inaugura- tion of the custom, on which flowers were in such profusion. as cong were to-day and the scene was vividly suggestive of the decoration of the National Cemetery at Arlington Heights. While to all classes the day in its impressiveness spoke in different degrees from the respect of kinship to the ease of a quiet picnic, the excellent order and re- epectful bearing of all visitors was highly commendabie. , At New York.

Henry Spears entered Groffman’s saloon about II o’clogk this morning, and called for a lass of beer. A colored man approached pears, and in ajocose manner, asked him to treat. This so enraged Spears that he dropped his glass and sprang at the colored may with the intention of ting him. Mr. Groffman attempted to put Spears out and as he did so the latter od outa «nife and made a lunge at the saloon-keeper who luckily avoided the blow. Spears, who is an old jail-bird, and who was just. discharged from the Chester (III.) en, is a rough character and was safely placed behind the bars at the police station. Fraud Alleged. The trial of Mrs. Elizabeth A. Hyatt, indicted for frau@, is going on in the Criminai Court to- day. She is acoused of defrauding Miss Mabel E. French ont of $1,500 on March 15, 1884. Miss French alleges that she gave Mrs, Hyatt the money to in‘vest for her, and she never saw it again. The defense is that Mrs. Hyatt in- vested the money for Miss French with H. Maur, the defaulting railroad clerk, and lost it. The defense waived the forty-eight hours allowed them to make challenges and went to trial with the case. — The Bridal Bulletin. Name. Residence.

I will tell you how I happened across him. During my stay ih London 1 spent many 1 evenings at the house of y Morgan—the wild Irish beauty they called her. Upon one occasions the conversation turned upon Ireland and things Irish, and I announced my inten- tion of paying a visit to Dublin. ‘Ah, then,’ sai 1 Morgan; you must go to see my sister, Lady Clarke. I will give you a letter of introduction to her.’ I gladly aecepted this offer, and when I landed at the Irish capital the first thing I did was to put my hand ina pocket, take out the letter to Lady Clarke and examine the address, for I was anxious above all things to pay my respects tothe sister of my dear end, Lady Morgan. Her house was on Sackville streef. You know Sackville street from your reading of Lever? Well, the lady received me most kindly, and when I was about to leave ressed me to return to dinner at an early our, asshe expected me to accompany her to aconcert, and after, to visit the house of a Mr. O’Connell—it was not Dan O’Connell, buta brother or a nephew. or some sort of a relative to him. Mell to come to the time when we got to O’Connell’s houses 1 notieed sitting in one corner ofa sefa a gentleman whose mien drew my instant attention. His hgir was scant and silvery, but vey curly. He appeared to be abcut years of age. I had just inquired of some one who the gentleman was, when Lady Clarke ta me on the shoul- der and said: ‘I wish’ to introduce you to a very dear friend of mine.“ and then she led me directly toward the gentleman concerning whose id —4— had been excited. He no dur approach and arose somewhat feebly. Lady Clarke presented him to me as plain ‘Mr. Moore.’ Ah,’ he said, in the a gentlest of tones, ‘this is Mr. Vaux. You are from Ameriva, sir!“ * „Mes, Ireplieqt, from a land in which the name of Thomas Moore is a household word.“ ‘**Ah,’ he said, were it not for those unfortunate American letters of mine. They must, indeed, have left a bad im- pression behind me.’ ‘Why,’ Isaid, there is scaraelya fam- ily among the indigenous inhabitants of every State and Territory inthe land in which your melodies are not read or sung.’ Oh! do you assure me ofthat? he said, in joyful, anxious tones. ‘Do you mean to tell me they hold me in fond re- membrance among your people?’ and, upon my answering in the affirmative, he continued, in tones somewhat mournful: ‘Ah, those unfortunate letters. Would to God I had never written them. Would to God that I had never so acted; but what has been written cannot be unwritten, I wish that it could be so.’ Our conversa- tion continued in this strain for some time, he —— numerous inquiries about matters and things in America. Finally, Lady Clarke requested him to sing some of his own compositions, and upon his hesitating she turned to me and said that I especially wished it. He turned an inquiring oe toward me, and I said —and I meant it, too—I would esteem it one of those occasions to be treasured up in my memory, never to be forgotten.’ ‘I will sing for you,’ he said simply, and grasping one of my arms as though need- ing support, he rose to his. feet, and he did not relax his grasp until he had taken a seat before the piano, and even there he commanded me by a motion to remain be- side him. Then he sang. Oh, what glorious melody, that was! That harmony ringsin my ear even now. Ah, but he had a voice sweet as eB Zolian harp laved in oil. Hes Lou may break, you may shatter , ‘vase if you will’ and ‘The harp that once through Tara’s halls,’ and half a dozen other of his own sweet Irish melodies. When he ot through what he was pleased to term is ‘foolishness’ he asked me if I would not drive him in my carriage to his home, and I had scarcely finished assuring him how delighted I would be, when he said: ‘I want te talk to you more about America. I want to drive y the feel- ing that your people—I know you have the feeling no longer—the feeling that your people have against me,’ and despite of all my assurances of the esteemin which my countrymen held him, he still per- sisted that they must be prejudiced against him on account of those unfortunate American letters,’ the writing of which he evidently so much deplored.” Celebrating the anniversary of his birth, at this late day, shows how much feeling exists against him. A GYPsY’S DEATH. He Disgraces His Tribe and Is Slain by Two of Its Members. Little Rock Special. Particulars of a strange and mysterious murder were received here to-day. About two years ago a man piving the name of John Simpson loca on Bayou Barthol- omew, in Ashley county. He cleared a tract of land and built a log house. He was a tall, stalw fellow, with dark hair and eyes, straight asan Indian. He lived alone, seldom ventured abroad, and avoided the neigh- bors. He was always armed with a double-barreled shotgun. Beyond stating that he was of Gypsy 0 » he said noth- ing respecting his past life. This fact caused him to be re ed with suspicion by es living in the immediate neigh- borhood, but so secluded was his life that his e was scarcely known beyond o radius of fiye miles 6f his cabin. he had plenty of money was also a fact well known to those who had business withhim.

Interesting Information About a Compara- tively Unknown Land. From a Letter in the Pittsburg Post, Those who have never seen life as it ex- ists among the inhabitants of the Hudson Bay country would be astonished at the extent of civilization among a class of people generally supposed to be savages, as well as at the awful grandeur of the scenery and forbidden aspect of the graveyard coasts along the shores of that, northern sea. In all the uninhabitable region of North America there is nowhere to be found a more bleak, desolate or dreary waste than that between Ungava Bay, off the coast of Labrador on the east, and Fort Churchill, on the west and southern EO of Hudson Bay proper. Although little is known yet re- arding this weird and frozen region, it as had a growth within the last half cent- ury which has been something phenomenal and having been measured according to its needs by the God of Nature has gone on advancing from age to age, until at the resent time, not alone the more fertile slands, but the extent of land back from the coast on either side, is thickly popu- lated by a people who hunt and fish and breed and talk and chatter even among the misery and destitution which life ina region 11 cha frost and snow must bring. udson Bay itself is really an inland sea, extendin between latitude 51 deg. an 64 deg. north and longitude 77 deg. and % deg. west, and while about 1,000 miles long at its greatest distance, is only about 600 miles in breadth, covering an area of over 500,000 square miles. Itis navigable only for about three months in the year— from the middle of June to the middle of September—and for the remainder of the year is filled with drift ice, which renders navigation, even for a short distance, an absolute impossibility. The eastern coasts of the bay are sights to be admired, eliffs rising in many cases toa height of from 200 to 400 feet abruptly from the water’s edge, and, being com- pees ofa glacier-like substance which, eing ever coa with ice and frozen snow, shine in the sunlight until it is al- most impossible to look at them for any length of time. The residents of this sec- tion are not ey Esquimaux, buta cross between this race and the French and Indians, who haye come in for the urpose of hunting and — and final - y settled down among the natives to live as they do and share with them in the privations which no other life affords. On an average, in the summer months, the ther- mometer stands at about 45 deg. above, while the temperature in the winter runs as iow as 60 deg. below zero and will aver- age about 25 deg. below. Fish are scarce and can be caught only in the rivers, of which on the east there is only the Great Whale, while on the west thereare the Hayes, Nelson, Churchill, Moore, Albany, Weeknisk, Main and Abbitibbe. Seal abound in plenty, but are extremely shy and hard for the natives to get at while porpoise and walrus. are equally difficult to get hold of. Were it not for the small fur-bear- ing animals which are about the shores the poor half-breeds would stand a very good chance of perishing a hunger, as they can expect nothing in the way of fd- vors from the Hudson Bay Company’s stores, a few of which are along the coast. The natives live in little villages com- sed of from fifty to one hundred rude uts. Each community has its place of worship and its church burial ground, which is consecrated by the Moravian | missionaries, afew of whom are tobe found wandering about from village to vil- lage, from the eastern extent of the set- tlements down as far as Fort Churchill on the west. These faithful beloved men ex- pect no recompense for their services, and if they did they wouldn’t get it, for there is not in all the country such a thing as money, the only exchange being in fish oil, or furs. Whenever one of a tribe dies the rest of his family—meanin by that the entire settlement—stop wor forthe day and prepare to bury him. If the settlement possesses such a thing as a dinner-bell, and the most of them do. the oldest man in the village goes about from hut to hut and rings the ell in front of each until the occupants come out, both big and little, and, falling into line, march after him. When the circuit has been made, and big and little are all collected, a march is made for the kirote, as it is called, the village church which consists of about an acre ground simply inclosed by a wall of stones near the middle of the community. Into this little field gothe entire popu- lace, and after Nags, pe virtues of the dead for some hours, the corpse is en away on a skin rack and covered with ice and snow in the common burial plot. The rest of the day is rejoicing, and the next day, if th ried, his bet choice, and at the end of a week, if an agreement be come to, the dead is 1 ten and the no longer sorrowing ones be- gin life over again.

Shorter Hours and More Play is What the Little Strikers Demand. From the Pittsburg Time. The boys at the Duquesne School, First Ward, strucx for shorter hours yester- day morning, and the girls have served notice that th will join the strikers this mo , ere are about 240 pupils in the school, and some fun is expec before the affair is settled. The dissatis- faction among the urchins grew out of the fact that some time o the Fourth Ward School 8 ts hours from 9a. m. until 3 p. m. to 8:90 a. m. until 1 m., thus giving the children nearly all he afternoon for play. The Duquesne pupils have been clamoring for the same regulations, and finally, after holding several secret mee decided to take the matter into their own hands. It was the understanding that all were to stay out to * 8 but the girls weaken a little at the last mo- ment, and decided to slowly. They went to school in the morning, ut found it intolerably dull thout the boys. The were then undecided whether to endure the loneliness or to risk the parental and pre- ceptorial chastisements which were sure to follow a strike. The hooting and jeers of the boys on the street corners after school brought the lasses to a decision at once. They would strike, and that none but not until the orthodox K. of L. =e iminaries had been gone through, — give the despotic bosses a fair A mass-meeting of female deleg tions from the several rooms of the schoo was hastily called, and after organization a few verbal resolutions to stand firm to the end were passed, and a committee of five fair damsels, ranging in age from 9 to 12 years, was appointed, with full power to do business with the School Board. The committee proceeded at once to Alder- man Cassidy’s office for the purpose of finding Mr. Kane, one of the principal directors. Mr. i was not in, and Squire Cassid the young ladies what they desired to er with him about. „We are five little from school,“ they said in chorus. and we've struck 80 mers —— — aon uire, supposing tha 1 the glass out of somebody wh ow. bas theres te „Struck for less hours,” said th man of thé committee, as she % sternly at the strate over his desk and swung ber bonnet back forth by the strings.

This will confirm the admiring estimate of Ja¥Y GOULD made by those who have al- ways said that he would build a new Union Depot some day or another. NO METHOD has yet been discovered of parting fools from their folly, and the sad stories that come from the Socialist colony at Topolobampo, in Mexico, will probably fail to prevent a repetition of that folly whenever a new visionary of the Owen 2 calls for new victims.

If she is to be hung it is safe to say that there will be an outburst of remonstrance and indignatien that may affect the legisla- tion of many States on the guestion of the death penalty for women. — — — —— THe Henry George theory of land ownership has been materially helped by the refusal of the Supreme Court to open the Maxwell grant question. Any con- dition of the law in which a single indi- vidual becomes tife owner of 2,500 square miles of land under any circumstances or by any title is evidently wrong, and the mere statement that such a fact exists is more convincing than a year of argument from GEORGE and Dr. MCGLYNN at the meetings which they are holding with guch success in different parts of the R has shown both patriotism and courage in attempting to form a working Cabinet for France, but he is not to be envied in the position for which he has volunteered. The army question is perhaps less of an immediate difficulty than the financial question, and it is almost hopeless to expect to satisfy the deputies with any conceivable policy on either question. France is drifting to war with Germany, and no matter what expedients are resorted to to avert or to delay it they can in the nature of things be only temporary; the Cabinet scenery shifts, but the background always shows a view of the international battle with BovuLANGER in command of the armies of France. 3 Tre bill regulating telephone rates passed the Massachusetts House by 8 vote of 7 yeas to Tl nays. The Bell telephone monopoly is extorting from the people of the United States millions of tribute an- nually, most of ‘which goes into Massa- | chusetts pockets. When the Massa- chusetts Legislature showed a disposition to join other States in putting some rea- terihg and black-mailing operations of this particular monopoly the outside public was agreeably . “surprised. But the law of ‘supply ana re, than’ anything in the Beverly bility lends its support to this action as it nne to the Union Pacino frauds. THE MUDDLE AT "JEFFERSON CITY. The situation at Jefferson City is so | muddled that the responsibility for the delay in enforcing the Constitution is not so clear as it might be made. Somebody ought to put the members all distinctly on record by offering resolutions embody- | ing the followmg enumeration of the Gen- eral Assembly’s duties in the language of the Constitution itself: 1. To exert the police power through re- medial statutes which will prevent any rail- | road from conducting its business so as to in - fringe the equal rights of individuals or the general welfare of the State.’’—[Ars. XII., sec. .] 2. To enact statutes which will compel rail- roads to receve and transport each ‘‘other’s passengers, tonnage and cars, loaded or empty, without delay or discrimination.’’ [Art. XII., sec. 13.] 8. To enforce the short haul clause and the right of all railroad companies as common carriers to use any railroad track in this State asa public highway.— Art. NI. sec. 14.) 4. To pass laws which will correct abuses and prevent unjust discrimination and extor- tion in rates. Art. XII., sec. 14. ] 5. To pass laws, from time to time, establish- ing reasonable maximum rates of charges, and to ‘‘enforce all such laws by adequate penalties.’’—[Art. XII., sec, 14.] 6. To provide for the enforcement of ade- quate penalties against any railroad company which shall in any way control any railroad corporation owning or having under its con- trol a parallel or competing line.’’—[Art. XII, sec. 17.) 7. To enforce section 21 against railroads contumaciously disobeying the Constitution and section 22 against railroad presidents, di- rectors, officers and agents interested in trans- portation over the line, or in furnishing the the company its coal; and by all means to en- force section 23 against discriminations and re- bates. If resolutions favoring the specific en- forcement of everyone of these sections and directing the committees to report bills in accordance therewith cannot pass both houses, then the Legislature is not in favor of enforcing the Constitution as it is, and the sooner that fact and the position of every member are made clear to the people, the sooner will the re- sponsibility be placed where it belongs. After playing so long the farce of ‘‘How Not to Do It,“ the Legislature should at least fairly fix the responsibility and leave the rest to the people. If the Democrats are opposing the flx- ing of maximum rates by the Legislature from time to time, they cannot claim that they are more loyal to the Constitution than the men who are against the enforce- ment of the short-haul provision, If the Democrats sacrifice a good bill rather than allow the Republicans a representative in the Commission, they cannot hold the Re- publicans alone responsible for the defeat of proper railroad legislation. Thecharge that the Railroad Commission is to be used as a ‘‘cinch’’ on the railroads for partisan purposes, should be promptly disposed of asit was in the case of the interstate commerce bill, by providing against the use of the Commission’s power for party purposes. If parties divide on which sections shall be enforced, and either party insists on a thoroughly partisan composition of the Commission, neither will be free from responsibility for the continued failure to enforce the Constitution. With the power in their hands to enforce it, the Democrats have failed to do sofor eleven years. The only way they can atone for that neglect now and redeem their record, is by taking their stand on a bill which provides for the enforcement of every section of Article XII., and which is not deformed with any obviously partisan provision whatever. THE indications are that the cause of charity in St. Louis will in the near future be reinforced from a new direction. To-morrow a match game of base ball is to be played at Union Park between picked nines of the St. Louis and Univer- sity Clubs for the benefit of a worthy charity. The affair will be a great social event and will doubtless net a handsome sum for charity, but that is the least part of it. The Mercantile Club resents the idea of a club championship being spoken of in any series in which it is omitted and proposes to get up a nine to play the winners in to- morrow’s game. It is easy to foresee that with the number of charities in this city seeking aid, and with the number of socie- ties ambitious of distinction on the base ball field, there isa combination which may very easily result in a boom for the charities and in a revival of base ball among the retired athletes of business and society. eel NO PLEASANTER May weather has ever smiled on a Decoration Day, though the flowers of twenty-five vernal seasons have exhaled their sweetness and faded on most of the graves that will be decorated to-day. The ex-soldiers who have annu- ally turned out to attend to this tender and touching duty are gray-haired men now, fathers and grandfathers, mellowed by timeand sobered by thelong discharge of graveresponsibilities, Thefeelings with which they turn out are growing sadder but sweeter every year, and the feelings with which the peeple watch their pro- cessions have no longer any trace of sec- tional or party resentments,but are full of reverent regard and sympathetic emotion.

She possesses a magic gem before which all doors fly open. There are quite a number of pro- fessionally witty women now in New York so- ciety. The demand has, toa certain extent, | created the supply. These women have reached the top of the social ladder by their brains. It i said that in New York, poverty is an insuperable barrier to entering society. In a certain measure this is true. No poor family can boldly hope to enter the swim’* and live on society, asthe eagle did on Pro- metheus, ‘without giving any substantial re- turns for all it gets. These returns, H not in the more solid emoluments of dances and din- ners, will be accepted by society in the small change of wit or beauty in the women. As in France, where the flower and pride of each village is sent to Paris to distinguish himself, so in New York every family boasting a beautiful or clever girl, strains every nerve and leaves no stone unturned to give her that social position for which her peculiiar gifts specially qualify her.

Paris Letter to London Telegraph. A Parisian dentist, about 50 years old, has just committed suicide in very tragical circum- stances. He had fallen desperately in love with a rather good-looking woman, who was a singer in a suburban cafe-concert. She did not return his affection, although she contin- ued to frequent his surgery. She went there yesterday to have, as she said, one of her tecth stopped, and the dentist renewed his protestatioms of affection; but, as she refused to give him any encouragement, he suddenly locked the door of the room, sat down and scribbled afew lines ona piece of paper, and then deliberately shot himself. While dying, accomding to the woman’s statement, he caught herin hisarms and passionately em- braced her. This accounted for her clothes being covered with blood. The neighbors state that, besides the report of revolver, they heard sounds of an altercation in the surgery. The dentist was a married man, but had lived apart from his wife for many years. What We Are Coming To. From the Chicago News. We see that a new literary weekly, to be called the Twentieth Century, is about to be started in Boston. We have not had the pledsure of perus ug its prospectus, but we can easily guess what the features of the new publication will be. These features, we pre- sume to say, will consist of a poem by Dr. Holmes, a Serial by,W. D. Howells, a sketch by Rev. B. E. Hale, a poem (full of mytholog- ical allusion) by Cols J. R. Lowell, ashort story by Henry James, and several critical essays from Col. T. W. Higginson. No man will be suffered to contribute to this magazine until he has passed his grand climateric and has visited the tomb of Emerson; no woman will be encouraged unless she affects cerulean hosiery, wears corkscrew curls, and has been dying for twenty years of unrequited affection. combined wealth will exceed $40,000,000.

That politics doesn’t enter into the depart- ments at Washington to any great extent now- adays is demonstrated by the recent experi- ence of Gen.

George and Blaine. From the Boston Herald. There has never been the least reason to suppose that Henry George would, under any stances, support Mr. Blaine for the Presidency, or advise workingmen to do 80. Mr. George may be erratic on some points, but he is thoughtful, earnest, thoroughly sin- cere—in a word, as antagonistic to Mr. Blaine’s methods in public life as it is possible to con- ceive.

This closes the effort to bring ~ Ghamberlain back to the Liberal ranks, to the . great relief of the best elements in the Liberal party. The speech also proves that the grand old man is prepared for a long and stiff strug- gle. Mr. Gladstone, indeed, wholly shares Mr. Morley’s views and expresses himself contemptuously of all proposals to win the enemies of the Home Rule over to the cause. The Government is mak- ing a desperate assault along the whole line of the National League in Ireland. The landlords are stimulated to eviction. Eviction will go ahead at a terrible rate for the next few weeks. All evicted tenants will have houses built for them, and will be supported at the expense of the League until restored to their holdings by the complete defeat of the Government and the landlords. The fight that now so swiftly approaches will be vast in ex- tent, and involves huge expenditure by the League for many days to come, and the resources of the League will be strained unless sufficient as- sistance comes from America and Australia. Indeed, the whole contest is largely a question of money. If properly supported the League will eventually break down the Government. It not, the Government expects to win by the starvation of the evicted. Matters are made more hopeful by the presence in Ireland of John Dillon and other leaders of the plan of campaign, who will assist and advise the peo- ple. The eviction campaign is certain to be more fierce than is generally expected. RESOLVED TO RESIST. The people in several districts have resolyed to resist to the death. The priests stand nobly by their side. Each evicting force resembles an army going into battle. The country pre- sents the appeayance of civilwar, The Min- istry are fully resolved to go forward. The landlords have no choice but to obe. All this shows the existence of hopes that the coercion act will not have to be put to severe use. The Idle winter, however, will see a stand-up fight between the forces of the tenants and the ‘ Ministry, and every clause of the coercion act will have to be putinto operation. The leaders of the people will be hauled before the magistrates inthe hopethus to break down the movement. The local leaders have felt for months past from the nature of the struggle that they must be ready to go to prison at any moment. The jail is not feared so much as the ruin of their business and homes, and the dan- ger of their families during imprisonment. If ‘Shen willbe Willing to go to jail. i necessarily o é 25 é : the League can hold them harmless, hosts of I must re- ‘peat that fhe whole battle ig largely and e of money to enable the League to stand by the men who go under in the fight r their country.

Y., May 30.—There came a lull in the storm Saturday night and the wings of the wind ceased to beat the complaining waters. Yesterday morning there were roses in the East, and when the sun peeped over the dark hills he shot golden volleys throtgh the rifts, making the lake an amber shield, lighted the emérald spires in the cathedral of pines and ushered in a day of Sabbath tranquility, blessed with ‘warmth and radiance. After his almost luckless fish- ing trip Saturday, the President Wus evidently chagrined to see the signs so propitious on a day forbidden. Frolicsome | trout leaped for gossamer-winged gnats not a rod trom shore and could not swing over them the fatal lure. Anon a kingly laker sprang clear from the burnished flood, shattering the mirror into a hundred widening rings and falling back with that bell-like plash which is music to the sportsman’s ear. At the first pouring of light, the anthem of birds 10 heard from the thicket, an d it made the woods musical. The butter flaunted his painted giories high above the grsss. The mosquitoes swarmed from the sedge u myriads and sought their prey. A Circling hawk circled and screamed sbrilly high in the blue, and the black files marshaled their ter- rible battalions and made valiant resolutions to lay forthe President. It was a perfect day of repose and President and Mrs. Cleve- land enjoyed it. The morning was bright and warm. Towards noon a breeze sprang up to chiif'the air again, and the clouds soon barred the sunshine, but later came a calm again and sunshine. 2 WILL FISH TO-DAY. To-day the President and Col. Lamont will take their first day’s good fishing, for in the East wind Sunday there was nothing to hope for. If there is no wind and the sky clear, it is probable that Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs, Lamont will follow each in separate boats with « guide. These Adirondack boats are very light, narrow and cranky. They are built of pine, on the lines ofa canoe, and are made portable in orderthat the guide may throw them across the strips of land dividing lake from lake. Belag so light and narrow, and yo also round-bottomed, the boat has great talents for spiiling ineautious persons at undesirable moments, and the voy- ager is usually cautioned by the guide not to nk more than one eye at atime while in them. But they are wonderfully swift. Dave Cronk is the President’s guide, and one of the most skillful in the region. Dave knows, or claims to know, the depth of every yard of the lake in inches; knows where every trout lives; how many he has in his family and how far he may be tempted from his covert under the shelving rock. Dave has — E for a week for his honorabie e inguired of each particular fish — variety of fly he prefers, and to-day will regulate his bill of fare accordingly. hen Dave slackens speed and tells the guest of his canoe that just ten feet off that rock lurks a two- oe, the lure will scarcely touon be- | fore be two-pounder will rise and gorge it.

The Strange Action of Minister Thompson Regarding a Haytian Claim. By telegraph to the Post-Digparca. NEw YORK, May 80.—In September, 1885, ac- counts were published in the Sun of the long and illegal imprisonment in Hayti of C. Van Boekkelen, an American citizen. Van Boek - kelen had lived in Port-au-Prince for several years, doing business as a merchant. In 1882 he was in debt both to Americans and Hay- tians. He had taken a considerable part in — ont sg Hayti, and had opposed Presi- 1 who came was —*— * A might on account of his depts, but he was assured by the American Government that under existing treaties no American could be imprisoned for cebtin Hayti. In 188 he was imprisoned for debt, as he alleged, at the instance of President Solomon, and kept imprisoned till 1885, when our Government reated Wh his release. While in jail he was treated th eruelty and hig health was destroyed. He came to this coun- 7 iB August, 1685. and 12 — — his father, K. Van Boekkelen in Brooklyn. Then he went back Hayti and died there on —.— 7, 1885, ness which fastened on rison, Before his return to Hayti our Stat epartment presented @ claim of $120, against the Haytian Government, in behalf of Mr. Van Boekkelen’s agents for false — he onment. The claim has not yet been settled. h 26, 1 the „Dr. L.

There has not been a performance given by sibilities of the rarest enjoyment te all music- iy» understan te those e u Pa me did have ee oe adequate and splendid surroundings. slonce as wher the ization does is sufficient to show ite claims on the public. It an almost un orchestra, with © foremost leader in America, somethin itself sufficient, the suber retation of the le scores, return value recetved; tt gives a chorus, etrong in numbers and me ,and so adumir- ably trained that the director need scarcely notice the singers, and they attack with a pre- cision and vigor, and their voices biend and harmonise with a perfection thatis wonderful ; it gives sceaic illustrations of the works of the of music which have never heen ar tn this country and not surpassed any- historically correct, rich and peautl. fl, gi ingenious mec hanical effects, gor- =. epectacies, tasteful and lovely cos- every accessory that can command 1 suggest; ers with it gives also company ain ge weaknesses and yet with ¢ Seiten le voices, who present — renditions of the music. ese at- tractive 2 make up an ensemble so im- — cag — Seog the average production of 3. 6 comparisons odious. he secing and hearing of a uction once seems for many persons who lay claim to musical taste the outside um of attainment and knowledge of that cular work, when every musician khows that one hearing hardly gives the husk of a composi- tion. Such a superb production as that of ‘*Lohengrin,’’ so admirably put on as it was Saturday is capable of revealing new beauties at each one of a score of hearings, and each one at the same > time would be a liberal course in mus culture. The same may be said of 1 ofthe Wagner operas and most of the others. For those whose appreciation of opera never rises above the neck of a ballet-dancer there is ample spread of entertainment. — dallet is -Hlling, glance -compelling, vasive, etherial and substantial va rich in abbreviated costume, and graceful in movement. The Coppelia ballet on Satur- day night was a dream of sweet, sensuous sounds, in grace of movement, rich color, harmonies and artistic roupings. Theodora de Gillert ain prov herself a charming dancer, and full of grace and intelligence in pantomime, while she was admirably assisted y Miles. Carozzi, Vio, Deasy, Maverofier and Mme. Cammarano. Mamert ibeyran and the entire corps. The dances were artistic, the groupings attractive and the costumes beautiful. It was a triumph for the ballet. Mme. L’ Allemand never appeared to better advantage than in Victor Masse's delight- ful opera, and the salad song was rapturously encored. To-night the splendid production of Wagner’s Flying Dutchman will be given. Bertha Pierson will be seen for the first time here as Senta, and the rest of the cast in- cludes Mathilda Phillips as Mar William Cape, B as the Dutchman, Myron “‘hitney as aland, aud Charles Bassett as Erik. It is one of the finest productions scenically and musically of the company. To-morrow night the grand production of Nero“ will be repeated, and for Wednes- day, the last evening of the season, a change has been announced in the repertoire. The demand for ‘‘Lakme’’ has been so strong that the management have concluded to yield to the popular desire and will give Delibe’s me- jodious opera with Pauline L’ Allemand in her charming presentation of the title role and a fine cast. One of the prettiest ballets is the bayaderes given in this opera. _ The People’s Summer Season. The opening of the supplementary season of light opera at the People’s Theater last even- ing, was attended by a large audience and the reception of the performance of ‘‘Girofle- Girofia’’ by the Ennis & Young Company, m- dicated a most auspicious beginning of the season. The company is large and select, and while a first performance te never a fair criterion by which to judge a company, the principals proved capable. In the cast was Miss Jeasie Hatcher, who made quite a hit in the titie role, Miss Fit e Di Miss Annie Farrel), Ferris Hart- man ed Dixon, George Paxton and others. The audience enjoyed the opera and a perform- ance or two will put the company in excelient trim: Prof. Knoll will give cornet solos be- tween the acts, and ‘‘Girofie-Girofia’’ will run for the remainder of the w Amusement Notes. The ‘‘Battle of Chattanooga,’’ under the management of Mr. James Hannerty, is one of the most attractive places in the af and the great battle picture is well worth the study of the publ A — has been formally tendered Mr. Beaumont Smith byanumber of gentlemen, and has been 14 ted by Mr. Smith. Rich- élieu,*’ one of his ieces of work, will be the attraction, and the ate is June o, at the Olympic or Grand. The summer season at the Cave will open on Wednesday evening, June 1, with the „Queen's Lace Handkerchief’’ as the first opera. The Cave has been refitted for the sum- mer, and an admirable company is promised in the New York Bijou Opera Company. — — — WEARERS OF SPECTACLES. Our opticians are patient and. pleasant.

The T. M. 0. A. nine is awaiting the result with a challenge drawn up for the winners, and the following letter will explain itself: To the Editor of the Poat- Dispatch: I see by the daily papers that a game of ball Is to be played next Tuesday between the University Clab a the St. Louis Club for the local championsh I would like oy learn which elub has the champion nine, and who they have beaten to secure it. Some of the members ofthe Mer- cantile Club are a little hot at this assumption of honor, and want to notify the captain of the winning nine in next Tuesday's contest that he will have a game on band he had not caicu- lated on. Weare not going to say much, but will be out there en masse to see what sort of sluggers and base-runners we will have to con- tend with. We expect to see some sliding to bases, down-shoots, sewers, etc., that might strike terror to the hearts of any except such as have had the courage and met with the success we have tn bringing ourelub to the front as one of the first-class ins us of the city.
