Special Cahblegram tothe Post-Dispatch. LONDON, August 20.—The journalists were right. AboutSo’clock yesterday afternoon, in reply to the impromptu question of a mem- ber, the statement was made of Salisbury’s announcement of the proo- lamation of the National League. The Irish party were apparently in some doubt as to the fashion in which they ought to reeeive it—whether in silence or uproaringly. Their derisive cheers were at first hesitating in character, but when the Chief Secretary read the preambie of the proclamation the Parnellite party cheered loudly. The formal mention of the National League was greeted with cheers, which were renewed when John O'Connor supplemented the statement that there exists an association known by name of the Irish National League, with confident assurunce contained in the words, and it will exist.’’ The Irish members were very calm and quiet about it afterwards. The only Opinions expressed about it were by the influential ones. Among them was, ‘‘It would be a bad winter for Ireland. DAVITT’S LETTER. This morning I receiveda letter from Michael Davitt, in which he says: My health is giving way again from hard work. I fear I have lit- tle chance of a holiday outside of prison. We are going to have a bad time of it during the winter, or I am no prophet.’’ Curiously enough these were the exact words used to me by the Irishmen inthe lobby last night. It does not follow, of course; as the Times re- marks, that the Government was bound to suppressthe League because they have pro- claimed it. 22 — 2 Spar — — — ppt Ff: EMPIRE SOAP CO., ST. LOUIS.

He has wrought mischief among the Giadstonian electors wherever he went.

They re- turned afterward, evincing a very am- icable disposition, and supply the ex- pedition with provisions. They in- formed Mr. Stanley that there were other rapids higher up. more difficult of navigation, and that further progress by river would be impossible.

It deplores the secession of Mr. Russell from the Unionist party, and expresses the hope that at Birmingham to-night Mr. Chamberlain will deny that he has seceded. THE STANDARD. The Standard says: ‘‘It is necessary that the Irish be made to know who is master, the League orthe law. The fight has hitherto been fought on @qual terms. It is now time for this toend and the combatants to resume their proper places as criminals on the one hand, and as Officers of justice on the other. The Standard expresses the belief that Lord Hart- ington and his followers will support the Gov- ernment’s action in proclaiming the League. EMINENTLY DISCREET. The Telegraph considers the Government's course in proclaiming the. League as emi- nently discreet, and says had they adopted the arbitrary and total suppression of the League they would have risked the full oppo- sition of the dissidents. A MILD APPROVAL. The Chronicle mildly approves the Govern- ment’s step. It says: It is an unquestion- able fact that Ireland is remarkable free from overt crime. We had hoped that the summary Operation of the crimes act would have sufficed, but on more complete informa- tion the Executive considers stronger meas- ures necessary.’’ CHAMBERLAIN AT BIRMINGHAM. Mr. Chamberlain will address his electors at a garden party at his residence in Birming- ham to-day. THE ECLIPSE. The eclipse of the sun yesterday was ob- served fora few minutes at sunrise at Dart- moorand Torquay. The sky was obscured by clouds at Paris and Vienna. At the latter place thousands were waiting to make observations. Prof. Vogel, ofthe Bel- gian expedition, stationed at Jerjewitz, on the Volga, telegraphs that the sky was over- cast but that the solar protuberances and chromosphere were observed, although the corona was invisible. The Rassian ob- servers were more successful, their various stations obtaining numerous drawings and photographs of the corona and its spectrum. THE IRISH CONSERVATIVE PRESS. DUBLIN, August 20.—The Irish Times (Con- servative) says: ‘‘The law-abiding people of Ireland will regard the step taken by the Government as one that was inevitable. The proclamation of the League will be felt as a relief, although many classes of the Irish people may be compelled to ostensibly hold another attitude regarding the matter.’’ ACTED UPON HIGH GROUNDS. The Dubiin Express (Conservative) says: The Government acted upon high grounds in response to the demands of the country. The Government would justiy have incurred cen- sure and have forfeited all claim to the confidence of the nation, if they had shrunk from this duty, which they now show they are determine at fulflll. The country wilt in- dorse the declaration that the Irish National League is a dangerous association.’’ A NATIONALIST OPINION. The Freeman’s Journal (Nationalist) says: The Government felt in danger of collapse through pure impotence, and, like all weak people, concluded they ought to do some- thing to make a show of strength in proportion as they felt the support of public opinion in England deserting them and so en- deavor to promote disorderin Ireland. The Government date not face the dissolution which would wipe the dissidents from exist- ence and sweep the Government from office. Ireland. THE MONTREAL'S MISSING BOAT. QUEENSTOWN, August 2.—The steamer Bothnia, from Boston, August 11, for Liver- pool, arrived here to-day.

They will, therefore, make no more, but will rather throw their associates overboard and goto the country on the issue of a rigorous policy toward Ireland. Itis not expected that the measures consequent on the proclamation of the National League Will at first be general. It is anticipated that they will only be applied in certain sections of Ireland, where the plan of campaign’’ has been maintained, or where crime has been present. England. PROCL AMATION OF THE LEAGUS. LOEDON, August 20.—The News this morning says: The proclamation of the League will have little effect. Except that they will nos call themselves members of the League, the same men will meet for discussion and to advise their neighbors. Whatever is Norquay ls weakening, and the announcement is causing a great feeling of disgust. If he goes back on his record, he will certainly be ousted from the premiership of the Province and be retired from politics in disgust. It is expected a crisis between the Government and the Canadian Pacific Railroad will be reached in a day or two unless the latter weakens, as members of the Government now here say that they will run the line despite any action. * Injured in East St. Louis. charles Manna, a switchman in the bridge yards, while engaged in maxing 4 coupling nt, bad his nt arm badly crushed. 22 taken to . in the Fourth Ward.

Payne and Her Daughter, Anna—A Dread of Becoming Insane the Cause—Discovery ofthe Terrible Deed Several Days After Its Occurrence—Pathetic Letters Left by the Women. * New Tonk. August 20.—A disgusting stench filled the tenement No. 81 Charles street for the past few days, and yesterday it grew go bad that Mrs. Franklin, the house-keeper, notified the police. She believed that the smell came from a devaying pail of garbage inthe rooms on the second floor, occupied by Mrs. Melvina R. W. Payne, and her daughter, Anna M. On Monday last the women had been seen closing up the shutters, and it was thought they had gone into the country. The report to the po- lice brought no response, and this fore- noon the stench had grown so vile that Mr. Hammann, the owner of the house, de- cided to make an investigation. He got out on the fire-escape and peered through the shutters into the women’s room. He saw both the women lying dead on the bed, which was bespattered with biood. MAGGOTS CRAWLED OVER THE SHEETS. Horror stricken, the man rusbed for the po- lice, and a locksmith was procured, whe burst open the door. Disinfectants were spread about and then an investigation was made. The women had been lying dead since Monday. A razor and an empty laudanum bottle were on a chair beside the bed. Hulf stupefied by the poison, prob- ably, and insensible to pain, the women had cut the arteries at their elbows and ankles, and bied to death, locked in each others arms. Death had unloosed their grip andthey lay side by side, faciug each other when found. Letters found on a table beside the bed showed that they had carefully con- sidered r of suicide, and decided to die together. he envelope containing them was so sonked with blood that the address was almostillegible. The police made it out to be „Mise H. A. Weed, No. 12 West Twelfth street. Miss Weed is a daughter of the late Thurlow Weed, and the Paynes were known to be old friends ot the Weed family. THE LETTER SAID: ‘+ Miss F. A. Weed: ‘*‘DEAR FRIEND—If anything happens that we are both found dead will you see that we are buried in the Albany Rural Cemetery in oaken caskets.

An Explanation of the Boodle Squealer’s Mysterious Disappearance. CuHiIcaGo, August 20.—Lawyer N. H. Han- chette, who was employed by the Citizens’ Association to wring from Private Secretary Sheridan the inside of the aldermanic boodle deals, is quoted this morning as practically admitting that Sheridan has not been taken in charge by officers of the State, but has sold out to the crooked aldermen against whom he had agreed to become a wit- nuss. Mr. Hanchette said that ne had been made aware that certain aldermen and others implicated had, within the past few days, made up a considerable sum of money for Sheridan, in order to buy him off, and possibly to send him away to prevent him from testifying against them. Sheridan had put himself in their way to the extent of letting them know that he would otherwise be compelled to furnish evidence against them. One man, he said, had come down to the tune of over $500, others had paid him small way he had accuaiu- sums, and in this lated a considerable purse. He was a shrewder fellow than he was taken for by those who have counted upon seécuriag him as a witness at slight cost. ve = mig om he was open to the highest bidder and knocked himself downto the gang party at about $1,000. OTHER RUMORS. Reports regarding the street car franchise investigation are more definiteto-day. Inand out of the City Council Alderman John Oolvin was the champion of Charles T. Yerkes, the cable road magnate, who has had such a me- tevric career in Chicago. Colvin has been in Austria for some reason, ever since about the time the first boodle in- quiries were begun. It is now asserted that Detective sy of . accompanied by Detective Fern of New York, left for Europe Tuesday night. Their destination was either Havre, France or Hamburg, the ports from which Colvin’s present + ia piace is easily accessible by railroad. he departure of the detectives was unexpected, because Mr. Mooney had given it out that he intended to spend his vacation, if he took one, in the Rocky Mountains. It ls un- derstood that he bas a commission from the Citizens’ Association, which is furnishing the money to carry on the warfare against the dis- honest aldermen, to look after Calvin, and perhaps General Manager Tripp of the Under- yround Electric Company, who is credited with engineering the noted conduit jobs, re- ay mammoth monopoly for the gas trust. KILLED WITH AN ICE-PICK. Joseph Luby Dies To-Day at the City Hos- pital—Another Murder. Joseph Luby, after lying in an unconscious condition for over three weeks at the Oity Hos- pital, died at that institution this morning, and his death adds one more to the list of murders that have been committed in this city. Luby, who was only 18or 20 years of age, lived at No. 585 Argyle avenue, and was em- loyed as a driver of an ice wagon. On the h of last July he was unloading ive car into a wagon at the tracks on Clark avenue, between Twentieth and Twen- ty-first streets, when Phillip Mueller, an 10 dealer residing at No. 1435 North Twenty-third street, came up and told — weigher that he wanted some ice.

How the National Banks of Washington, D. O., Dodge Their Taxes. | By Telegraph to the POS8T-DIsPaTcH. | stir has been created in official circies by the publication of a letter addressed to the Com- | missioners of the District of Columbia by R. A. Fish, Assessor of the District, in regard to the payment of taxes by the national banks of the cityof Washington, From this letter it appears that these banks have never paid a dollar into the treasury of istrict though the assessment lists ae ae $30,000 eur years, makin an are of nearly . no including ipter- est and penalties accruing under the law. Mr. Fish enters into de- tals, and very naturally asks the why on entering int the — to whieh lie has been only ys appointed, he finds these taxes unpaid. The Commissioners re- ferred this letter to the attorney of the dis- trict, who, being absent on leave, his assist- ant and son-in-law, Mr. Davis, trumps up the proceedings of an all test case, which is said to have been a put- up job, of some eight years ago. Proof of this assertion is shown in the fact that the attorney of the District, Mr. Riddle, did not the — to the Supreme Court of the United tates, where the judgment of the lower court, m the opinion of many,could have been reversed. Every effort has been made to have Riddle turned out of the office. He is particularly offensive to Democrats in the Dis- trict. The Commissioners have been appealed to by prominent residents of every section to make a change in the office. Not only the national banks have escaped, but all the banks and banking firms have been able to stave off their taxes. Thuis same can be said of all the railroad, steamboat and all large corporations of the District. It is very easy, under the circumstances, to under- stand the high price at which shares are quoted in the Washington papers, when these institutions pay no taxes and thus have the advantage over their tuxpaying fellow-coun- trymen in paying high dividends and piling up a large surplus, ina 22 part due to a ps Nig — ae oe y — 1 2 swindle ) vernment by escaping the payment of taxes legally and morally dus. * IN THE PROBATE COURT. Wills of Ernst Spiering and H. W. Bilanke Presented To-Day—Other Matters. The will of Ernst Splering was filed for probate this morning. By it he gives his wife, Theresa Spiering, a lite estate in all his property during her widowhood. At her death or marriage the propertyis to gu in equal proportions to Theodore B. and Louis C. Splering, children of deceased. Theresa Spiering is made executrix of the will without bend. The will of Johanna Walpers was also filed this morning. The beneficiaries are Wm. Walpers, 800; Annie Stalie, $75; the New Jerusalem Church, $100; the Lutheran Beth- ania Church, $50, and Sophie Stalle and August Stalie certain wearing apparel und household goods. The will also directs that $170 shall be spent for a coping around her lot in St. Feter aa poet” S Later the will of Henry W. Blanke was pro- bated. Its first bequest provides for the pay- ments of debtz and the second is of 41.505 to his sister-in-law, Mrs. 2 L. Lxle; the third is $1,500 to his aiece, Julia A. Barron. The fourth provision of the will bequeaths all of the testator’s stock in the Blanke & Bro. per ay | factory to his son, Henry W. Blanke, and his son-in-law, James M. Getty, in trust, to 1 und control said stock and collect any dividends wnich may inure thereon, and divide such dividends as follows: To his wife, Julia 4 Blanke, one-half; to his | daughter, Emily B. Gettys, one-sixth ; to his daughter, Julia O. Blanke, one-sixth, and to his son, Henry W. Bilan e, one-sixth. the death of his wife trust ceases and each of said children will receive one- third of sald stock absolutely. The will further directs that during the existence of said trust, said H. W. Blanke shall, with the advice of his mother, wee and vote said stock in the company. All the residue of the estate, whether real, personal or mixed, is given to his wife during her nat- ural life and the undisposed remainder, at her death, is to be divided equally between the three children named, and while the wish is expressed that she should not dispose of the principal, she is em- powered to do soshouid her necessities de- mand it. The operation ofthe second and third clauses of the will are restricted by a codicii, which makes them depend upon the generosity and judgment of his wife for their vitality. His wile Julia A. Blanke is appointed executrix without bond. Letters were granted to-day to Francis Nohl to administer on the estate of Oscar Black val- ued at $3,000. ARMED FARMERS CAUGHT HIM, Arrest of William Spencer, Who Robbed the Marshall Brothers. William Spencer, the youth who robbed the sate of Marshall’s livery stable, 2627 Olive the city this morning by Merritt H. Marshall, Jr., and locked up in the Four Courts hold- over. After stealing the money he took a train for the Gasconade, where he deter- mined to amuse himself hunting and fishing, while the search was going on for him over the country. Mr. Marshall learned of his whereabouts from a man who him buy his ticket, and the livery man took a train for the same place. He found Spencer calmly fishing in a skiff in mid- stream, and with a delegation of farmers whom he had notified that there was a thief in the neighborhood, ran up and down stream after the youth on both sides of the river until a skiff finally overtook the fugitive, and his hands were bound behin him. The enraged farmers were armed with shotguns and other weapons and Spencer was glad to getaway from them even asa prisoner. He admits the robbery, but says he got only $205, instead of $220, as the Murshalls suppose. There was $171 found on him when he was arrested. Spencer re- marked contemptuously that he thought there was more in the safe or he would never have thought of robbing it. Itissaid he was smit- ten with one ofthe chorus girls at the Oave and it is thought that he intended joining her eventually.

THE GEAND ARMY PARADE MAY GO TO CHOUTEAU AVENUE. — — — — The Grand Marshal Waited On by & Com- mittee of German Citizens—The Big Arch to Be on Twelfth and Pine Streetse—Head- | quarters of the Commander-in-Chief— The Banquet Committee Mects—Grand Army Gossip. There is a probebility that the line of march of the Grand Army parade will be changed. The original intention of the Grand Army Committee was to have the procession gO as far south as Ohouteau avenue. When the route was examined, however, it was determined that the trains on Pop- lar street would cut up the parade too much, and so the route was stopped off at Spruce street. Yesterday & committee of German citizens waited on Gen. Grier and urged the claims of the territory south of Spruce street to recognition. Gen. Grier called on Third - Vice-President Newman of the Missouri Pacific and asked him what possibility there was of shutting off traffic on Poplar street between 10:30 a. m. and 8 p. m. on the day of the parade. Mr. Newman said he would have to consult the Master of Transportation, and he would let the commit- tee know on Monday. There would be no trouble about stopping the freight trafic, but he did not know whether or not the passenger trains could be stopped. If the route is ex- tended to Chouteau itis possibie, though not probable, that the parade will be out off a little at the western end. The extension will adda half-mile to the parade and as the line of march is already three miles long it is not unlikely that the line will move over Nineteenth street instead of Twenty-second street. The line will certainly pase California headquarters at the Armory, however. The Big Arch. There is some dispute among the members of the Decoration Committee as to the location of the big arch which Is to be erected. It was practically determined that the arch should be put up on Pine at its intersection with Tweltth street. A member of the committee MUNICIPAL MATTERS. The Remainder of the City Bonds Held—An Election Count. To-day comptroller Campbell stated that the city had already disposed of nearly $8,000,000 of the 3.65 per cent bonds. ‘‘We have not sold any since the 2th of June. We raised all the money we needed then, and are holding back the balance to allow those holding the first — 11 to establish a price—I would Uke io see the Mayor re- Comptroller, breaking off the ‘*He’s gone, remarked one of the — — ae gracious!’’ exclaimed the Comptroller, “the Mayor is a busy man It seems, We owe one of the banks „000 worth of ponds, made out zn thirty-two bonds, but I leclare I haven't been abie to get those signed luring the last two montus. The Mayor had lisappeared ieavi groups of statesmen about his office, and the Comptroller accord- ingly withdrew with bis unsigned bonds. * The Klein-Valliant Contest. The count of ballots in the Klein-Valliant contest has almost been completed. It is reported that on opening the count in the Twenty-cighth Ward Mr. Klein had a lead of nine votes. Recorder Williams states that under his construction of the law and his oath, he is not permitted to divuige any fact concerning the count of ballots. He says the same section governs the contestor and contestee, and that consequently no fact concerning the bullots will be made publio until be presents his re- port to the court. He will 13 his re- port until the count is completed. Weekly Mortality Report. During the present week 185 deaths were re- ported to the Health Department. Twelve of these were caused by violence. Eleven fatal cases of diphtheria were reported. During the corresponding week last year 199 deaths were reported. The death rate per thousand on the basis of 420,000 is 23. Of the twelve deaths from violence eleven were homicides and one suicide. Within the week 209 births were reported. AQ re EXCHANGE NOTES. The Allen Memorial—A New Route to the Guif Proposed.

Then they can return to St. Louis loaded with lumber. The fact that Mr. Lrger cannot spell Borzne will probably not ect his scheme in the eyes of St. Louis Capitalists. THE FIREMEN’S FUND.

The John Meyer Lumber Company brought a suit for damages in the sum of $10.000 in the Cireult Court this morning against ©. O. Thompson & Walkup Company, Daniel 8. Holmes and Robert H. Kern. The damages are alleged to have grown out of an attachment suit instituted by the de- fendants in this proceeding against the said Meyer Lumber Company, and is based upon an indemnity bond executed by the defendants in this present suit, by which they obligated themselves to prosecute suid attachment with vizor and effect, which they failed todo. It is claimed, that by reason of the institution of said attachment, the plaintiff herein was ir- reparably damaged, put to great expense; Caused great annoyance and vexation, and that ite business credit was greatly injured and impaired, for all of which the above dam e Bank s Mechanics’ Bank flled suit this morn! —— Mitchell, Vance & Co. of New York who are manufacturers of gas fixtures, eto. to recover the sum of $5,291.10, the amount of an 14 billof exchange which matured in New York yesterday.

Collector-of-Internal-Revenue Barnum has bad his eye on an iet still in Shannon County, Mo., for some time, and decided to make the raid this week, and accordingly last Saturday morning Deputy-Collectors Sherwood and Jeffries of Collector Barnum 's office, Rev- enue-Agent William Summerville and Deputy- United-States-Marehal O.

He is well-to-do and owns con- siderabie property. „ Sammerviile wee left in charge the wagon while 0 horses to Pickett 's asked to stay all un , claiming to be railroad men in h timber. But they were refused admittance and spent the night in a neighboring house. At 8: esday they slip out of essed on the road and went to Pickett’s house, but he had skipped, having been warned. They burried over to his motber-in-law’s, half amile away, and athered in his cousin. named ulll van, with whom they had dinner and who had warned Pickett. breakfast they took Sullivan and sta orth of Pickett’s house alont a deep hollow. ullivan and the whole Pickett family laughed at and RIDICULED THE OFFICERS for supposing there was a still there. Buta mile and a half up the hollow the officers saw the still. They asked Sullivan innocently which way they should go. He directed them away from the still. When they moved toward it ne broke down and begged. They found it of sixty-gallon capacity, and at once broke I up with axes. Pickett was — u athered in before een running for about fifteen years and vauue rumors of it have been floating around about it for ten ars. This is the second seizure of a still in Collector Barnum's two years of service. Col. Summer- ville suys it is the finest country for stille he ever saw. This cleans out the moonsuiners of Shannon County, which some years ago was infested with stills NO DISCRIMINATION, Traffic Manager DePew Explains the Mobile & Ohio Freight Rates, E. F. Kelly, Secretary of the Transportation Committee, received this morning from H. 8. DePew, traffic Manager of the Mobile & Obio Railroad, a letter explaining the reduction of rates between Cairo and the South. Mr. De Pew says: The rates from Oairo should not have been put into effect until the St. Louls rates were ready to be issued, but as a matter of fact all rates north of the river are based upon Cairo, and those rates were issued first lu order to form a dase for making rates from other points. There was amistake in this, but there was no inten- tion whatever of discriminating against St. Louis; on the contrary, I think you will find that there is nota merchantin the City of St. Louls but what will admit that the writer has at all times in the lest seventeen years done everything possible to forward the interests of thecity. He has given the merchant of St. Louis an eg oe of working to Southern and outheastern inte as avainst competition from other markets when- ever it has been in his power to do so. * * I desire you to assure your committee that the Mobile 4 Obio Railroad has taken a new departure inthe reduction of rates from St. Louls to their local stations which is meeting with a great deal of opposi- tion from our competitors. This has en done with a view of giving St. Louis an oppor. tunity to regain her lost trade along the line of our road. I think the impression that seems to prevail that Cairo has done a large business the past three days to our local stations, is erroneous. Telegraphic information from Cairo showsthat the shipments have not in creased toany extent, and n reality the St. Louis merchants have suffered no irjury in this connection.’’ THE CABLE’S DOUBLE TRACK, President Tredway Replies to Criticisms of Objecting West End Citizens. Mayor Francis received a letter to-day from President Dwight Tredway of the Cable road with reference to the resolutions passed by a meeting of citizens of the Twenty-eighth Ward on Thursday night. The resolutions censured the Mayor for allowing the Cable Company to build double tracks in its steam division and en- croach on alleys and private property there- by. Mr. Tredway replies that a careful sur- vey of the line was made and the company isnot encroaching on alleys or pri- vate property and thie is the first the company has beard of any such complaint, as nota word has been said about it to any official or employe. He also says that the com pany is complying strictly with the per- init and if it is encroaching on any other prop- erty unwittingly, and this can be shown, it is ready to make the proper corrections at once. Second District Pelice Court. In the Second District Police Court this morning, Judge White rendered a decision in the case of L. Russeau and others, who were tried some time ago for violating city ordinance No. 14,084, which . was intended to prohibit hucksters, lars, and others from disposing of their wares, mer- chandise, etc., in the territory bounded by Wash street and Clark avenue,and Fourth and Seventh streets. This ordinance he declares to be unconstitutional and bere- after will not be recognized. The defendant was discharged. John Thompson was arraigned this morning on the charge of public indecency and was fined §50, which he was unable to produce, and was sent to the Work-house. There were thirty-five other cases for petty offenses. The Irish Nationalists. Preparations for the Irish National celebra- tion atthe Fair Grounds, August 28, have been completed.

DENVER, August 20.—The reported fight be- tween Kendall and Colorow’s band, in which confirmed. It is rumored that the Navajos and Southern Utes will join Oolorow. A dispatch from Greenwood says that there are about four hundred Indians ia the vicinity of Meeker, and that the majority of citizens at that place are dissatisfied with the leader- ship of 6herif Kendall, and they are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the troops. A new version of the cause of the trouble is that the Indians are not inclined to hostilities, put that they are forced into their present at- titude by bad white men, in self-defense. The following telegram was sent to Gov. Adams yesterday: 4. OMAHA, Neb., August 19.—Your telegram of yesterday received.

On Sunday last Burns sent to Meeker an employe named McAndrews, with Charley Cavanaugh, McCook and six other Utes, to ascertain the facts. Upon receipt of telegram this morning, I drove over to Ouray, where Burns is revising the pay rolls of the Uncomphagres. While there a letter, as fol- lows, wus received from McAndrews: ‘*RANGELY, Col., August 15.—Everything all right on Blue Mountains and here.

DENVER, Colo., August 20.— Whatever may have been the cause of this Ute trouble, and whether it was justifiable, the fact remains that there is difficulty ahead and it will only be averted d the nasty return of the renegades to their reservation. The State authorities have gone too far to retrace their steps and the Indians give no sign of an intention to retire. Sheriff Kendall started from Meeker, Wednesday, with nine men to locate the Indians whom he found in cump near the old Thornburg dattleneld. They were too smart for him, however, and got in his rear. After a stubborn fivht, in which four of Kendall's men were wounded and three horses killed, the p succeeded in 1 bringing their wounded to Meek - er. This was the first white blood drawn in the conflict. Couriers were hastily sent to Glen- wood, who met a company of ffty well-armed volunteers from Aspen on the road, and the latter party hastened forward. The informa- tion was conveyed ale to Genu. West at Glenwood Springs, where the troops from Denver and other points are encamped. This morning the mounted men left Glenwood for the front with the ger 4 that they may encounter Indians on the road. A report came from Rawlins last night that stage passengers had reached there who deciared that Kendall’s men were desert- ing him. This information evidently is old, as a similar report came from Glenwood, and it was afterwards shown that Kendall had divided his forces. All of his original party finally reached Meeker. MYSTERIOUS DEATA. George Bailey, an Infant, Found Dead Under Peculiar Circumstances. The police and the Coroner are investigating the somewhat mysterious death of George Bailey, 14-months-old child of Martin Bailey, a lithographer living at No. 1517 Clark avenue. Bailey rents the upper floor of the house from Dan Linahan, the bookseller, and came hither from Chicago about a year ago. He has been returning home rather late re- cently, having to do over-work, and on his return last night at II o’ clock startled the house by crying out that his boy was dead. Mrs. Li ahan on going upstairs found Mrs. Bailey lying on e bed with the child dead at her feet and covered with biood which had come from the mouth. Bailey, himself, was distracted. When the weeping father hurried off for a doctor, the mother arose and attempted to out: her thront, but was penvenses by Mrs. Linah She nflicted a slight however, and was later sent to City Hospital. The father was arrested by Sergt. T Hen- . Thos. nessy. The body of the child bore no marks of violence and itis supposed that he died a nutural death, but this fact was concealed from the father by the mother, both of whom loved him greatly. Bailey states that the child was ailing, and that on Wednesday he asked Dr. Russell Abeli to call, but found out last night that the doctor haa failed to do so. Dr. Abell denies that he had been asked to call, but that he had prescribed for Bailey himeeif. Bailey sayshe andhis wife had quarreled Monday about her reading a letter he was writing to a gentleman friend in New York and were on bad terms. When he asked her about the boy yesterday morning, she gave him no reply and be left. He thinks his wife con- cealed the child’s death from because she knew he was so fond of him. His wife and he quarreled some because she did not think he fave her enough money to fit up the house. e was a member of 1 n club and spent 4 or 8 nearly every week attending their shoots, and also sent some money to his mother occasionally. His salary wus a week, but he hada hard time making it go around, although not a drinking man or extravagant in any way exceptat the gunclub shoots. The death is probably only a natural one, but the parents certainly showed a lack of re- gard for the child in letting him die without medical attendance. BAILEY RELEASED. The Coroner to-day had a talk with Balley and soon became convinced thatthe man had nothing whatever to do with the child’s death, and ordered his release. Bailey oried like a child. Hedenies that he was laughing last night when the police called at his house, and in this statement he is borne out by Mr. Lina- han, who says he took the death very CORNELL LOSES. 9 An Important Decision in the Fisk-McGraw Case.

BROWNING, D. C. YWoung...... THE IVES FAILURE. Assignee Cromwell Looking for Missing Books—The Statement Not Ready. New York, August 20.—William N. Orom- | well, assignee of the firm of Henry 8.Ives & Co., obtained from Judge Donohue, yester- day afternoon, an order to compel the three partners in the fi appear on Monday in the Court of Common Pleas and explain what has become of the ledger, the cash-book, the security book, and two blotters cover- ing the year 1886 and theearly part of 1687. The firm opened new books on April 1 last, and the assignee has been unable to obtain the books referred to from the members. They profess not to know what has become of them. They are Important, because, although the books in use since April 1 appear to be straight, there is nothing to show that they are begun on a correct basis. The clerks make affiduvit that all the books were in the vault on Monday, August 8, about the time the Cincinnati creditors arrived trom the West with Ives. It ig said that the as- signee threatens Ives and his partners with arrest if they did not produce the books, but they positively declare that they kuew notnh- mee their whereabouts. ssignee Cromweil, this morning, said to a reporter that he was sorry that 1 had leaked out concerning his action in procur- ing an order of Court te compel Ives & „ to produce certain missing books. He said certain brokers grasped at every possible feature of the Ives matter to influence the stock market, and he had for that reason all along avoided giving out any information which could be converted into a sensation. The statement, now nearly completed, is made, he said, from the books as they ex- ist. These are acomplete set carefully kept and telling a connected story of the firms transactions.’’ Mr. Cromwell would not state what the miss- ing books were, but said thathe would make his statement of the affair in day morning. THE STATEMENT NOT READY. The assiguee’s statement in the matter of Ives Co.’s failure was prom for noon to-day, but at that hour the accountants asked more time. They are now busy on the recapitulation and the state- ment is promised to be ready late this afternoon. A meeting of the directors of the Mineral Range Railroad Com- pany is bein held in the ass'gnee’s office, and there is the best réasons for belief that Mr. Stayner has resigned the presidency of the road, and that Mr. Ives has also resigned as vice-president, secretary and treasurer, all of which positions he held.

WaSHINGTON, D. C., August 20.—Speaking of the Baltimore & Ohio accident to- day, ex- Congressman Barbour of Virginia said: Many of the railroad accidents result from the efforts of trains to catch up with lost time. When I was in charge of the Midland road I issued standing orders that there be no fast running to recover lost time; that when a train was be- hind time it must so remain. The record will show that we had no accidents except such small ones as are perhaps unavoldable.’’ Carondelet Jottings. The Carondelet Harmonie Club will plienie to-morrow at Cliff Cave, Mo.

This may be true, but the public want to know more about the large amount that failed to get through his hands, having been abruptly stopped in ita passage. In the meantime, the Senator is profiting by example of people who confess too much on the witness-stand, and if the examin- ing commissioners want any more im- portant information from him they will have to apply the hydraulic pump of legal compulsion. REFORMERS AND REFORMERS, Avery rampant and visionary species of reform is now abroad in the land, man- ifesting itself in various forms and in- scribing various contradictory legends on its banners. The contemporary reformer ot the most extreme and incurable type argues on the assumption that in order to make things better, it is only necessary to make them different. With this false postulate as a starting point, he proposes to re-cast the economy of the world, and to remodel the moral universe after a more divine pattern. The world of to-day is afflicted with a surfeit of romantic and impetuous re- formers. Some of these build their air- casties and weave their lotos dreams in honesty and sincerity, while others are rascals and hypoorites, living by their wits and levying tribute on the oredulity of their fellow-men. Still, they appear to have certain characteristics in common, among which is a curious species of egotism which prompt them to consider themselves wiser and better than other people and especially commissioned to readjust the affairs of earth as the vicegerents of Heaven. They are essentially pessimists who see no good in the existing order of things, and who affirm that matters cannot be mended except by popular- izing their own nostrums. Their fa- naticism is so narrow and intoler- ant that they are unsafe ooun- selors, even when their preaching is essentially true. The Prohibitionist fan- atic assumes, asan axiomatic truth, that people who do not agree with him about whisky are scoundrels and sinners, leagued with the powers of darkness and at war with all that is good. The Anti- poverty fanatic plants himself on the as- sumption that all land-owners are thieves and robbers; and soon down the line to the Anarchist fanatic, who believes that, since everything is wrong, everything should be destroyed. The active reformers of the day need @ more generous baptism of Christian charity. They should learn that in order to make a man change his mind on a cer- tain subject it is a poor plan to begin the job by trying to persuade him that he is a scoundrel. It is not true that the world is very bad and full of evil, with no good thing in it exoept its reformers. The in- ourable fanatics, who are deaf to every sound save the echoes of their own frantio exhortations, must go their way and con- sole themselves with the reflection of the bogus baron in Erminie: I o very ‘different things might be if they were ‘‘not as they are!“ THE rescue of the passengers and the crew of the burning steamer City of Montreal was, under the circumstances, little less than miraculous, and the disas- ter to the vessel is a sharpreminder of the dangers which lie in wait for ocean trav- elers. These dangers are always impend- ing, and yet, under the constant vigilance and long experience of the management of the great ocean lines, loss of lifeis al- most unknown. Itisa pity that some of our railroad managers cannot get the benefit of training on an ocean steamer. — — . — AN imaginative newspaper correspon- dent now traveling in the South, says that Chattanooga is ‘‘one of the few “Southern cities where the Northern man “is entirely at home.’’ Tothis weary and veteran chestnut, the only suitable re- joinder is, Rats!“ The Northern man is entirely at home in any Southern city, un- less he is an escaped convict, or has some other private and particular reason for not feeling at home anywhere. — 2 e¢ — — WHEN the Anti- poverty crowd and the Socialists begin to repudiate each other, it looks like a family coldness between the pot and the kettle; and one is reminded of the Shakesperean chestnut, which avers that ‘‘there is small choice in rotten ap- ples.” Socialism and Henry-George-ism would both mean anarchy if reduced to practice, and Americans are not prepared to accept either. c MR. BLAIN is said to stand in mortal dread of two things—a political banquet and a delegation of preachers. Either of these grisly terrors will make him take to his heels like a scared rabbit. European admirers of the magnetic statesman, who are making arrangements to do him honor, must be very careful as to details. —— — d—— — They Would Not Change Places. From the Charles ton Courier. The Chicago Herald knows the truth when it sees it, and it is not afraid to help it on its dificultway: ‘‘The difference between the North and the South in this regara is that nere the negro enjoys perfect equality in theory and no equality in fact, while atthe South both fact and theory agree in denying him equality and relegating him to a sphere | by himself. This he knows and understands, and he expects nothing else. As a oonse- quence the Northern negro, being actualiy barred out of any actual social commerce with the Northern white, and not being specifically encouraged to improve himself on his own account and by his own means, does nothing. He is an outcast, and knows it. At the South, on the contrary, he has bis own society, and wishing or expecting no other, he has im- proved it and improves himself in conse- quence. Northern sentiment is vitiated by a moral color-biindness which amounts to hypocrisy, that does no one any good and does the negroes much harm. The sort of philanthropy and morality that must always go faraway from home to obtain an airing and exercise may be very beautiful to behold, dut the natural resuit ie that they become strangers in their birthplace at the last. — ‘*white slaves of the North are suffering to- day for some of the sympathy so lavishly wasted upon the colored people of the South. and these are in no haste to ehange places with their discontented neighbors. Violence at the Hub. From the New York WoRLD. The attack on Umpire Sullivan of the League, by a mob of excited Bostonians isa sad com- mentary on the Inability of an intellectual community to repress at all times its evil passions. There were many reasons why Umpire Sullivan should have been well treated atthe Hub. In the first place, he bears & name which is revered in Boston above most others. Then, again, his decisions are, in the maln, always just and impartial,and in the game of Monday were not responsible for the fact thatthe Boston Olub was weaker than its op- ponents both at the bat and in the field. But outside of all personal considerations Umpire Sullivan should have enjoyed fair treatment, from the mere fact that de was in Boston. Does not the old legend, Noblesse oblige,’’ apply in all its force to the American Athen- ians? Where can we look for philosophical acceptance of defeat, calm repression in the hour of disaster, a firm regard for justice and hnmanity, if it be notin the national seat of culture? O Boston, Boston! why did you dis- grace your proud seat among cities? The Silent Senator. From the Ph fladelphia Ledger. Rallroad Magnate and United States Senator Stanford is setting up the royal prerogative claimed by the British Crown Ministers, The Ministers decline to tell Parliament how many foreign princes and princelings are on pension rolle, and Stanford refuses to tell a Oongressional Commission what was done with the money repre- sented by ‘‘vouchers’’' for scores of thousands of dollars which aagregate hun- dreds of thousands, probably millions, of Central Pacific funds which are not accounted for in any specific way, and which, in a cer- tain sense, are public moneys of the United States. When asked if the money was expended to ‘‘influence’’ Congressional legislation, he refuses to answer or goes Off inatantrum, He is one of the birds who, being able to sing, ought to be made to sing.

METROPOLITAN PRESS. What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying This Morning. DV Telegraph to the Posr-Dtara ron. New Tonk, Angust 2#.—The WORLD says: It was eminently fitting that the labor con- vention should put the name of Henry George atthe head of ite ticket. The place of the leader is at the front. Mr. George has sup- plied the greater part of the ideas to the new movement. He is a thinker and an honest and sincere man, though his land theory is prepos- terous. He is the embodiment of energy and is charged full of contagious enthusiasm. His name is Known to every intelligent voter in the State. Therefore, it was sagacious as well as right that he should head the “‘cket. The remainder of the ticket appears to be made up of men fairly representing the party. We think, as we have said before, that the man- agers are over-sanguine in their estimate of the vote their ticket will receive in the State at large. But it does not need to be very great to hold a serious menace to the party now in control of tne State.’’ THD SUN. The Sun says:: What may be called the re- nomination period is now in progress. Thus once again hasthe truth been demonstrated that the party is greater than the man, though what mizht have become of tnat principle if Cleveland had not been eligible for a second term cannot de sxid with entire oertalnty. ; THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: It is possibly safe to say that nine-tenths of the Postmasters are now Democrats, and, moreover, most of the re- maining offices are 80 small and unprofitable that it ie difficult, and in very many cases Im- ossibie, to find anybody who will take bem. Practically, there has been a clean sweep, as the Civil Service - form clation at 4 annual meet- in sadly confessed. he professional reformers who brought about this change by swearing on their nal knowledge that President Cleveland wusa genuine reformer, are busy explaining as best they can; all that concerns the coun is that the old-fash- toned partisanship Pierce and Buchanan has en complete possession of the public service again through the election of 4 pre- tended reformer. THE TIMES. The Times says: ‘‘Measured solely by the outcome of its deliberations, this convention of the United Labor party can hardly be taken seriously. But itis unquestionably true that this ticket and this platform, grotesque as they may appear to the judgment of right- thinking men, will command a considerabie strength atthe polis. We believe that the par- tisans of Mr. George and those Republicans who see their interest ln promoting his schemes, generally over-estimate this strength, how- ever. And unless some new unforeseen ele- ment should come into the canvass to swell the George vote, we are confident that the re- suit of this trial of its candidates and its prin- ciples before the people will convince Mr. George and his associates that they are not the chosen instruments to lead the political com- munity out of the wilderness.’’ THE PEOPLE'S FORUM. The Modern Blight on Beauty. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Pardon me, sir, for addressing you, but it seems that one must apply to you if they want to make their wishes known. Iam a red-haired girl, and my grievance js this: Thatit is not only very annoying, but 8 painful to hear allusions made to m air. I cannot walk on the street without some one begits to smile and glance around to see if there is a white horse in sight; and some make remarks about it, not seeming to care that what they say is heard. | do not consider my red hair a misfortune or defect at all, nor do I see anything about it to excite risibility. It is pps beyond my power to help. I would ask that people ouilti- vate a deeper regard for the feelings of others, an if they must remark about the singular phenomenon of the ro- puted mutual attractions between red-haired girls and white horses, that they please wait till the lady is out of hearing. It seems to be customary among a certain class of people to deride red hair and consider it something especially made for their amusément and to be the object of sarcasm; but it is as exceed- Inuly ill-bred to allude to one’s hair as it is to allude to any deiormity of body in the pres- ence or hearing of that party, and if the al- lusions are derisive they are quite as painful, Therefore, I would suggest that if people con- sider themselves well bred, they make it more | apparent. I trust you may find space to pub- lish this letter, or anything else that will tend to lilt such people as are guilty of whut I al- lude to to a higher state of civilization, I might say, for ony one will admit that to be ufity of such rudeness is very uncivil. By so oing you will make a grateiul reader more grateful. DELILAB. St. Louis, Mo., August 19. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

C., August 2.—The {rial of Passed Assistant Surgeon Crawford of the Navy | for violating the Bdmunds Utah law with Eva | White ended yesterday in the conviction of the accused on both accounts in the indictment. The judge imposed a sentence of six months’ imprisonment for each offense. This case has attracted considerable attention on accountof the social prominence of the accused, and it is the first case tried in the district under the Utah law. Assistant Distriet- Attorney Lipscomb, in opening his argument, said he was not responsible for the law, but he would not apologize for it and he was sure no one in the community would apologize for a law for the of such ildren. He then dissec the evidence and Srerjehing. he ead, hinged on the celebrated leteer Gra tors had written to the girl. His — „ — path. —— gui tained that it was not n pro place in an offense of this character.

Charity stands a poor show among the iaw- yers of this city, especially among those who put their feet on tables in the vicinity of Fifth and Olive streets. In fact, the greatest of Paul's trio would stand a good chance of being picked out of the Lucas and the Insurance Buildings. It is all due to a *‘client’’ who has worked that district retty thoroughiy the last two days. This individual was nam Melville H. Moore, a very pretty name; in truth, much prettier than the man bimself, who looked like a shabby-genteel, the only redeeming feature about him being that his white necktie was not — 3 the man was not pretty he was brave, how- ever. Nobody would deny that. The idea of a man trying to beat not only one sbarp-eyed attorney, but a couple of buildings full fills a person with admiration. The plan adopted, too, gave Mr. Moore a good chance to display his intelligence, which was of as high a grade as his bravery. His method of procedure was to walk into one office and tell the attorney that his neighbor down the hall had sent him in, being too busy. He was about 80 years of age and his face showed his acquaintance with the ‘‘growler.’’ But he was asmooth talker and as sharp asa tack. ON A BED-ROOM FLOOR. He would claim to be from Auburn, Ky., and would refer to the well-known lawyers, Brow- der & Edwards of Russellville. He said he had some time ago purchased 13,000 acres of land near Poplar Bluff, Mo., and had moved to Marshall, Tex. He had return to Clay County, Kentucky, and left his land in the hands of a real estate dealer at Marshall. There was a mortgage on the land, and he instructed his — to sell enough to pay off the mortgage. be agent, he claimed, ad sold 10,000 acres. There was still 3,000 acres, worth Sanacre, which he could still claim. It was, however, involved and he wanted the lawyer to take the case on a contingent fee, which would be very big. All attempts to corner bim werevain. He knew all about land laws, often more than the at- torney, and gracefully slid around every point. PLAYING HIS TRUMP.’ About the time be reached thé dee part his formula was — 2 out a telegraph blank and say; lam not feeling well, as you can see, and need some medicine. I shall telegraph my broker for money and I wish you could lend me enough to get some medicine. I will add the amount to the fee. This was about as far as he got} with some and was shown the door. But he touched the sympathy of others, who ad- vanced a few crisp bills, and are waiting to-day to learn if he heard from his brother. Among tiose who are waiting for ‘‘feet that never came’’ are Julius Robert- son and James E. Hereford of 506 Olive street. They claim allthe rest in the building were caughtthe same way, but the others have pooied against them, and ey are now made the joint victims of inquiries about ‘‘land gases. Reports from other quarters show that the entire legal community of our city has been ‘‘touched’’ by the gentle stranger. Machine Short Haud. The stenograph or machine system of short - hand is used in many of the leading business houses, railway offices, etc., and is taught at the Bryant & Stratton College, corner Broad- way and Market street. THEY HAD FUN. St. Charles Street Filled With Boxes by Two Gay Young Men. Last night two young gentlemen with a boat load of good cheer, shiny silk hats and rare good humor made St. Charles street merry for half a block. They were passing the high pile of dry goods boxes against the St. Charles side of Ely-Waiker Dry Goods Company's building, and the idea that afflicts hilarious youth frequently when they find themselves ut 12:30 a. m. on a de- serted street, seizedthem. ‘‘Let’s chuck the boxes in the street,’’ suggested one, and after looking carefully about to see if there was any one in sight, and seeing no one, they began to be merry. The pine boards collided with the granite, and the echoes took up the thad, turned it into a musical rattle, and tossed it back and forth across the narrow street. Bubbling with laugbter like school M the young men went on untilthe last ox was shunted into the thoroughfare. The lit- tle comedy hud been watched from the oppo- site side of the street by Private Watchmen meaner: and Fitzsimmons and Policeman quay. They stood in the shadow near Broadway and saw the boxes thrown ont, then they quietly separated to surround the two young men, on whom they descended a ne last box was thrown into the street. oliceman Fuquay recognized one of the merry couple as Jesse Graham, a traveling salesman who shot a man in Texas sometime ago, an has frequently entertained his friends with ac- counts of how it was done. The other was recognized by Raughmeyer as John Pugh, said to be an employe ofthe Fairbanks Scale Com- pany. though at the office of the company bis morning the name was not recognized. „Mr. Graham, said the policeman, you can do one of two things, put those boxes back where they were or go to the station.’’ ** We'll go to the station If you can take ue, said one valiantly, but when they were sud- genly started in the direction of the patrol ox they beganto weaken. ‘‘Shall we have to ride in the wagon?’’ Graham asked. Ot course you will.’’ Wein put the boxes back, they said, and the procession wae about-faced to give them an opportunity. At least a hundred Persone n gathered about the watchmen and the prisoners by this time, freely guying the latter as they began the unpleagat work of replacing the pile. The street was 80 full of bo that a vehicle xes could not have passed, and closely watoned, the young men gathered in the boxes one b one. en they had raised the pile hi 4 one ofthe young men got upon the boxes and took the boxes as they were b up. The pile was quite as high as the — floor window silis —— they finished, and were inexorabie, and after some men bired a stander for A ete the work. hen they were suffered alf sO merry as they had been halt Tun American Art Company’s recent im- from Zurich, A THEATRICAL COMBINE. THE AMUSEMENT ATTRACTIONS SECURED BY ABBEY FOR NEXT SEASON. T. W. Robertson, Son of the Dramatic Au- thor, to Be Stage Manager of Wallack’s —New Members of the Company—Joseph Hoffman, the Musical Phenomenon— Mme. Patti’s South American Tour— Coquelin—Bernhardt’s Remarkable Eu- ropean Tour—Jobn Stetson’s 81,000,000 Theater. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTcH. New Yorn, August 20.—Henry E. Abbey arrived yesterday morning from Europe by the City of Richmond, of the Inman Line. He was accompanied by Mrs. Abbey, Marcus Mayer and Mr. and Mrs. Charles 8. Matthews. Mr. Abbey said he had been hard at work during his three months’ absence on the various enterprises of the new firm. Abbey, Schoeffel & Grau have monopolized so many of the stars and celebrities of that, the amusement world, that they have earned the distinction of being „The Standard Oil Company’’ of theatrical and operatic affairs. Among the engage- ments made by Abbey in England are those already announced with Mr. T. W. Robert- son, son of the dramatic author of that name, who will be the stage manager at Wallack’s; Mr. E. D. Ward, a comedian of celebrity of London; Mr. Charles Dodsworth, a character actor, and Mrs. Louisa Eldredge. Mr. Abbey deelares it is his intention to assemble his company very shortly and begin active prep- arations for the opening of the season on Octo- ber 10. The play, however, he says, has not yet been guite decided on but it will be either ‘*The Silver Shnield’’ of Sydney Grundy or **Caste’’ by T. W. Robertson. THE COMPANY. The 2833 with which the season will be opened will, with some few additions, be as follows: Rose Coghlan, Florence Girard, Minnie Conway, Mme. Ponisi, Mrs. Eldredge Kate Bartlett, Mrs. E. D. Ward, Osmon Tearle, Kyrie Bellew, Charles Groves, Charles Dodsworth, E. D. Ward, Harry Edwards and John Gilbert. „The policy of the management,’’ Mr. Abbey said, ‘‘will be short runs and frequent changes of bill.”’ Only comedy will appear on the boards at Wallack’s,n«teven a melodrama receiving the countenance of the new man- r. Some comedies of Robertson’s that have never been played in America are in the reper- toire ofthe company, and others that have been he Among them are: M. P. „Birth, Home, and School,“ and there will also possibly be a presentation of some of the Shaksperian comedies. Mr. Abbey also effected arrangements with Prof. Hoffman, father of the new musical phenomenon, Joseph Hoffman, for a series of concerts during the coming season. The little fellow, who has just made a musical conquest of London, is but 10 years old, yet plays Beethoven’s difficult compositions in a manner to win from Rubenstein the testimony that he ‘‘is one of the marvels ofthe age. He made his first bow before a London audience on June d aud immediately created a sensation. His subsequent performances were to full houses, and he sustained the ex- ceedingly favorable first impressions formed of him so well that he was compelled to appear before the Philharmonic Society at their concert of June 2 {for inepection, and his rendering of Bethoven's concerto in C, No. I, was such as to ainply confirm the judgment of Rabenstein regarding him. He will give a short season of concert in England this autumn, after which he will appear under the management of Abbey’s firm in aseries of opera performances in this country, begin- ning about November 2. His concerts will be purely inetrumental, not vocal, and he will be accompanied by an orchestra under the direc- tion of his father. MME. PATTI. Mme, Nicolini-Patt! was at Craig-y-Nos en jo ing a well-earned rest after the labors of er last American tour. She will go to South Americain April, but only to South America, Mr. Abbey said, for her ‘‘farewell tour’’ of last spring was a genuine ‘‘farewell.’’ From South America she will return to England direct. COQUELIN, the great French comedian, will begin his American tour south of the equatorial line in the spring, going thence to Havana and Mex- ico, and arriving in New York some time in Octobera yearhence. He will be supported by his own French company. SARAH BERNHARDT. Mme. Sarah Bernhardt was quietly trying to get accustomed to her new hotel in the Avenue de Peltiere, which Maurice Grau engaged for her while she was still performing alors the largest houses she ever drew in London. Some of her performances, after leaving New York on June 18 last,are considered quite phenomenal. They were ten days onthe trip to Queenstown arriving there on the evening of the 28th, and Mine. Bernhardt was advertised to appear that evening in Cork, sixteen miles distant. Ab- bey was at Queenstown when the City of Richmond arrived, and seeing that time was short he engaged the tender and steamed outside the barbor to the big steamer,got Mme. Bernhardtand hercompany, her tiger and her luggage, and put straight for Cork harbor, arriving in time to ring up the curtain at 8:45 * m. She played two nights in Cork, three in Dublin, two in Gl ow, three in Edinburgh, where James G. Blaine and Andrew Oarnegie occupied a box; one night in Leeds, three in Liverpool, three in Man- chester and ended the season with two weeks at the Lyceum in London, giving six evening performance and two matinees each week to the largest houses she ever attracted. On Saturday, July 23.she piayed ‘‘Fedora’’ at the matinee and ‘‘Theodora’’ at evening per- formance, The next evening she sailed for Paris, arriving at 5:30. She inspected her new house, dined with Sardou and attended to some matters of business Mr. Grau. The next day she returned to London and that night played ‘‘Theodora’’ at the Lyceum, Mme. Bernhardt will appear at with the Porte of St. Martin in November in a new" lay by Sardou. She has read the lines over a ew times and expresses herself delighted with them, but the drama had not a» yet been given aname, and Mr. Abbey was not able to give any description or it. A CHANCE FOR THE d. o. P. The Real Truth About the Trouble in the Ute Country. } A Republican and a Democrat meton an Olive street car last evening and fell to dis- cussing the Ute trouble. Now's your time to work in the shirt over the case of the ola chief,’’ Democrat, sarcastically. ‘‘Idon’t see how we Republicans are any more interested in him than you fellows.’’ ‘‘Isn'’t Jim B aine always making all he can out of the color line?’’ Well, 1 expect he 16. „Well, isn’t this excitement 2 or — ust then the conductor rang a fare and tue Republican said: There, I knew that was a ohestnut. bloody said the all over a German in the Schools. Ata meeting of the Committee on Course of Study and on Teachers of the Public School Board last evening the question of substitut- ing German-English teachers for the present German and English teachers, was discussed at some length. A resolution was finally adopted recommending the continuation of the present system, in view of the fact that a change at this time would throw a good many teachers 1 of employment without a proba- bility of their obtaining new occupation.

Secretary-Treasurer Ab Lewis, who has just returned from a European tour, is a good ob- server and noted many interesting lit- tle things in the cycling kingdom. In England he observed that fully half the wheels ridden are safeties, and he is confident they are the coming wheel. The streets of London, even in the busiest portion, have a fine surface for wheeling, and he saw many riders threading their way through the most crowded traffic thoroughfares. Ladies, too, are often riding tricycles in the busy streets. The fair sex, be found, are tak- ing to the wheel very generally. In makinga ride on a wheel trom London, a - tance of about twenty miles, on the hottest day experienced there for years, he passed many lady tri lists en route. Arrived atthe end of the ride all the wheelmen sat down to dinner. But they were no longer wheel ‘‘men’’ exclusively, for at table sat half a dozen ladies who pumped all the twenty miles out, some alone, others with their husbands. Inu London he was In the hands of the Wheeling crowd, and was royally entertained,and therefore saw littie of the general run of the fraternity. However, be thinks there is less club life amon wheelmen than there is here. The English are areut riders, ‘‘scorchers from way back, as he puts it. The English rider has a duli-dog pertinacity that makes him ride till he drops off his wheel. In Germany, on the other hand, the riders are stiff, slowand awkward.

The St. Louis Protestant Hospital is to-day without debt, and its fully equipped with a bandsome, comfortable building. fine medical Staff, full corps of trained nurses, appliances andallthe necessities of a thoroughly pre- pared institution. This announcement meaus a vast deal to St. Louis. Itmay be said that acity is known by its charities. Not merely because the exercise of charity bespeaks the higbestform of civiliza- tion and the kindliest feelings of humanity, but because in the character and number of its charitable institutions are reflected the qualities of its people. They are not only evi- cences of prosperity and enterprise in the means to build and sustain them, but they are monuments to the generosity of the-founders and builders. The establishment and thor- ough equipment of anew one is there- fore a gain to the city, not to de counted in returns of profit, but in the development of the humane instinctse and in the relief and mitigation of the evils of pov- erty, suffering and disease. This is what has just been done for St. Louls. The deed accomplished is not the founding of a new in- stitution, but the placing of one already founded, but struggling for existence, on a sound financial basis, where its power for good is immeasurably increased and its per- manency and growth assured facts. That this ls to-day the condition of the St. Louis Protestant Hospital Association is due to thé labors and generous gifts of a number of lib- eral and large-hearted gentlemen. THE AIM OF THE FOUNDERS. The st. Louis Protestant Hospital was not founded on a hasty and ill-considered impulse. The originators of the plan of which the pres- ent splendidly equipped institution is the re- Tesulthad a well-defined purpose in view. This alm was steadily adhered to through many difficulties and discouragements. Its ichievement was not rapid, but was none the less sure, and the final result is all the more substantial. The purpose was the estabiish- ment ofa purely unsectarian hospital, which should offer to those overtaken by disease or accident proper care, medical or surgical treatment, and necessary medicines. The benevolent citizens who originated the plan in viewing the field of such York in the city found a distinct Deed, one portion of the ground uncovered. There were plenty of Catholic hospitals and there were sectarian Protestant hospitais, but there was no institution on which the mass of the Protestant people and those not connected ¥ith any church could unite their energies and their means in building up for the benefit of uu and all, no matter what their religious ©pinions, who might need its services. This Yas acrying want thatappealed to every lib- ral minded and humane citizen. The want v recognized and the beginning of the pres- at institution was made. INCEPTION OF THE WORK. The Young Men’s Christian Association 1s dusectarlan and has done magnificent serv- let. The plans of the hospital being exactly 1 ue with this work it was natural that it tbould be commenced under ite auspices. The Orst start was made u the building next ad- dacent to the V. „ ©. A. Hall on North Eleventh street, an ¢ although the means were limited and the buht ng small, splendid work Was accomplished, jhe work of the hospital Proper was necessary limited, but the dis- Pensary was cond eted admirably and Proved 2 means of Siding the gflicted. During the two yeersand a halt under the care of the T. M. „ that is, tram April 12, 1881, the of its organisation, to November 20, 183, there were v. tue eMicient medica’ ud hospital. Nc re was made for dis- Ponsary or medical «vices, and only nom- nal Charges for care. Th THE ASSOCIATIQN INCORPORATED. * Work having dueloped eo rapidly and , and the 4 of greater efficiency ming more ant more apparent, a number of denevoleri gentlemen were ether and a staten ent of what had * to a successful Issue was requested. The gen- tlemen called upon responded nobly, and ac- cepted the charge offered them. A board of thirteen was selected, and the St. Louis Protestant Hospital Association was incorpo- rated June 28, 1883. The building which had been used before was retained, but the equip - ment was improved partly by purchase and partly by the generosity of liberal merchants and manufacturers. A fine medical staff was secured, and the work progressed admira- bly. The gentlemen who undertook the responsibility of muintaining the institution and who constituted the incorpor- ators were gentlemen known for their enter- N Men's surgical ward. prise in business, public spirit and readiness to respond to every call of charity and the welfare of the city. They were Samuel M. Dodd, Edwin 0. Stanard, Joseph G. Chap- Man, Edward H. Semple, George W. Parker, Charles W. Barstow, James H. Wear, Isaac M. Mason, George A. Baker, George 8. Edgell, Frank L. Johnston, Edward P. V. Ritter and William P. Mullen. The incorporation of the hospital placed iton a different basis,more advantageous tothe con- duct ofthe work. It formed a nuclens around which the charitable energies of that vast mass of benevolent persons, comprising the Protestant Christian denominations, and those outside of church lines who respond to the dictates of humanity could gather and perform a mission of good. It was something that had never before existed, and could con- centrate and effectually apply benevolent labors which had been desultory and more or less aimless and impulsive. PECULIAR FEATURES OF THE INSTITUTION. There are several features of the hospital which mark it as independent, broad-gauge and worthy of hearty support and encourage- ment. 1. It is absolutely non-sectarian, and invites the aid and co-operation of every class of citizens. 2. It is not only non-sectarian in princilpe, but the charter prohibits the undue infimence of any one religious denomination, while at the same time it is Christian and humane in its purposes. 3. It is conducted wholly for the good of the publicand not a single private interest can be subserved in its management. 4. The character of the gentlemen controll- ing it and the charter guarantees honest man- agement and the economical use of funds de- voted to it. | 5. Patients from all classes of physicians are received and the rights of the physicians are fully protected. In a word it is a practical, liberal and noble charity. Within one year after the Associa- tion was incorporated, and notwithstanding the limited means at command,there were treated over 6,000 cases of worthy poor people. Many of these cases were surgical, and medi- cines in almost every instance were furnished free. And yet the cost to the Board amounted to only obout $300, or 5 cents for each case. ENLARGING THE FIELD. With the movement in the hands of the gen- tlemen constituting the Board, it was impos- sible that the plan should stand still. The aim was too broadand the men too progres- sive for that. The work went steadily for- ward and it was soon manifest that more suitable and spacious quarters must be obtained, and the directors determined to secure them. In looking aboutforthe kina of building required, the managers found one that met every requisite. This was the Carr mansion, situated on North Eighteenth street, near Carr street. It was the residence of Mr. Thomas N. Dyer, and that gentleman favored the wishes of the Board and made the purchase of the house possible. The building was bought two sum- mers ago, the Board of Directors then consist- ing of 8. M. Dodd, Isaac M. Mason, George A. Baker, E. P. V. Ritter, E. H. Semple, George 8. Edgell, Frank L. Johnston, Thomas K. Niedringhaus, E. F. Hoyt, D. B. Gould, G. H. Ten Broeck, E. P. Bronson and W. P. Mullen. These gentlemen undertook the task of securing the building and equipping it for hospital pur- poses, although there wasas yetno money with which to defray the expenses. It was nev- ertheless neceseary that the step be taken, in order to place the hospital in proper condition to do the work demanded of it and iu proper position before the public. It was done with confidence that the ultimate resuit would be good. This confidence was not mis- placed. As soon as the Dbaiiding was secured the question of furnishing and equipping it came up and was met, not by extravagant outlays at once, but by continual labor. Churches and individuals and businese firms responded to appeals for aid and fit- ting up wards furnishing the necessary hold and hospital appliances and by g! of money the end was accomplished and the hos- pital prepared for its mission of mercy. THE HOSPITAL BUILDING as it stands to-day is one of the most comfortable and admirably arranged in- stitutions in the city. It will repay a visit of inspection just to see how thorough: | ly everything has been prepared for the care and treatment of the sick and injured and the * 1 coe t one of the landmarks of that portion of the city, standson Eighteenth street, near Carr; fronting eust on the former. It is situated on high ground and the frontis imposing, the roof extending beyond the building proper, supported by large pillarsand covering spa- cious porticoes above and below. A broad stairway leads tothe lower portico and to the double entrance doors. The value of the porticoes as airy and sunny resting- places for convalescent patients is immense, and to- day when a Post-DISPATCH reporter and ar- tist visited the hospital they were most invit- ing. The sun glinted and sparkled on the balustrade and played hide-and-seek through the breeze-blown vines that clambered over the pillars and trailed from the upperto the lower porch. Easy chairs in the corners showed where the inmates had taken sun- baths and enjoyed the morning air. A pull at the bell brought to the door in a few minutes the assistant matron, Mrs. Flora Constable, who invited the visitors in with a pleasant welcome. The matron is Miss A. J. Gilmore, whoisa graduate of the New York Training-school for Nurses and thoroughly understands her duties. The main hall is large and airy, with high ceiling and with a side entrance. The hall is neatly and simply furnished with hat and coat rack, large table, chairs and settee, and an organ for music when it is permissible. The visitors had scarcely entered the house when Dr. L. H. Laidley, the president of the medical staff, who has been one of the most enthusiastic and hard workers for the suc- cess of the hospital, came for hia morning call on the patients and in the dis- pensary. Under the guidance of the physician and assistant matron the visitors were shown every part of the institution. It was scrupu- lously neat and clean and the cots were white, soft and inviting looking. The large room in front has been divided into three cosy apartments for single beds. Each one is neatly and tastefully furnished and has plenty of light and air, latticed doors opening on the portico. Back of them are two wards, one with two beds and the other with three beds. The Second Baptist Church gave the women’s surgicai ward in the rear up-stairs. The Union Methodist Church contributed the furniture for the front up-stairs room for ladies, and also the bath-rooin and operating- room. St. Mark’s Lutheran Church furnished and fitted up the second floor of the extension. Other Presbyterian Churches contributed for other rooms and for cots. This is only a partial list of what has been done, but itshowsthe spirit out of which the hospital has grown.

The sum of $5,000 will perpetually endow one bed, and double that amount will secure two beds. To endow one free bed for one year only $365 are needed. The dispensary is open from 10 a. m. to 4 p. m. for the treatment of free cases, and from twenty to thirty worthy poor are attended to every day. Not less than 10,000 patients have been treated in the dispensary since the hos- pital was opened February 22, 1886.

They give the rooms a cheerful and home-like appearance, totally different from the business-like air of the usual big hospital. Nearly every room opens on a piazzaor balcony, and numerous windows let in abundance of fresh air. Up- stairs the arrangement is the same, and the rooms, if possible, coolerand lighter. Then for patients who require absolute quiet and seclusion there are apartments in an exten- sion to the rear of the main buildings. One of the rooms in the ‘‘L’’ of the house is now occupied by an afflicted gentleman in good circumstances, who selected it as the coolest quarters he could find, and in order to get the care and treatment of the hospital. The institution has a capacity for forty beds, although at present, for entire comfort and proper attention, not more than thirty patients can be taken. There are twenty-two nice rooms, and the highest number of patients accommodated at one time was twenty-six. All kinds of medica! and surgical cases are treated, and the most difficult and critical operations are performed. The medical staff have secured the latest and finest appliances fortheir work. They sent to New York for felt beds, which are the softest and easiest made, and in every other way the hospital is fully equipped. Only trained male and female nurses are employed. The dispensary is in the front basement, which is amply lighted and ventilated for the purpose. The basement lies high with win- dows opening to the air. Inthe rear of it are the laundry and kitchen, furnished with bolil- ers and ranges. In the central portion of the basement are the store-rooms and the boilers for heating the house. In the pleasant ante-room were two patients waiting to be treated, both poor women who were not able to paß for medical attention. Immediately adjoining the ante-room is the operating-room, which also contains the drug cases. GIFTS FROM CHURCHES. Much of the fitting up of the hospital is due, as has already been stated, to the kindness of churches and individuals. Among the churches which have contributed ald may be mentioned the foilowing: The Church of the Messiah furnished and fitted up the dispensary in a most thorough manner. Heip is still needed for a laboratory and for sufficient medical stores to satisfy the wants of free patients. ‘Centenary Methodist Church, the three pri- vate rooms in the first floor front. The Lafayette Park Presbyterian Church con- tributed for the room adjoining them. The First Congregational Church furnished the men’s surgical ward. The Second Presbyterian Church fitted up “alleviation of suffering. ‘The house, which is “two rooms in the extension. daily for medical and surgical clinics. The amount of good that is done inthis way is in- estimable. It is the aim of the managers to make the institution free, but for the present patients are received from any physician who may choose to send them there for proper care and nursing, and he is at liberty to attend. When patients are able nominal charges are made for care. The fact that the nurses are all trained, and keep careful records of the patient's condition, greatly aids the physi- cians, and helps recovery. THE MEDICAL STAFF. It requires only the mention of the names of the physicians and surgeons on the medical staff to guarantee able and skillful treatment of the pa#ients. They are eminent and accom- plished men in their profession, ard are devoted to their work. Dr. L. H. Laidley is senior surgeon and president of the staff, being also ex-officio member of the Board of Directors; Dr. Paul 1. Tupper is junir surgeon; Dr. J. B. Johnson is consulting physician, and the regular phy- sicians are Drs. W. G. Moore, E. M. Nelson and S. P. Johnson. The specialists and their departments are: Throat, Ur. William Porter; oculist, Dr. H. M. Post; aurist, Dr. John B. Shaplelgh; nervous diseases, Dr. Charles H. Hughes. Dr. Laidley, in speaking ot the work to-day, said that he preferred asmall building or a number of small buildings after the style of the latest Parisian bospitals in preference to an immense building for a hospital, as there was less danger of poisoning from vitiated air and the patients could be handled better. Ot cours®, no patients with contagious or in- tectious diseases are admitted to the hospital. Ee LIFTING THE DEBT. Generous Responses to an Appeal for Aid— The List of Contributors. This is the hospital which the friends and managers of the movement made it. But in this securing a commodious building and in equipping it adebt of $10,000 was incurred. This debt was a heavy burden, and was a con- stant mepace, not only ‘to the prosperity and the good work, butthe very existence of the institution. The present Board of Directors, which is composed of the same gentiemen who purchased the building, with the exception of the substitution of Mr. A. C. Stewart for Mr. Wm. P. Mullen, determined to free the hospital from ite durden and to take it forever from the list of debt-harrassed and begging charities. They held a meeting sev- eral months ago and concluded to make a vie- orous effort to this end. With them, to say was to do. The effort was made by a com- mittee appointed for the purpose and was suc- cessful. An appeal was issued and the gen- erous and public-apirited citizens responded nobly to the call. The $10,000 needed were raised in short order by the munificent gifts of anumber of individual citizens and cor- porations who represent the best spirit of benevolence and progress in the city. The managers and friends of the institution appre- clate fully the generosity which prompted the responses and are ready to acknowledge them with gratitude. THE ROLL OF HONOR. The citizens and firms who contributed the amounts necessary to free the hospital are leaders in the commercial interests of St. Louis. Among the first should be placed a number of prominent brewers, who did not hesitate to give handsomely to the fund. MR. ELLIS WAINWRIGHT of the Wainwright Brewery Company, who is one of the most liberal and public-spirited citizerfs of St. Louis, contributed promptly and handsomely to the fund and showed his sympathy and co- operation in the work. 2 MR. JOSEPH SCHNAIDER of the Joseph Schnaider Brewing Company, one of the lead- ing breweries of St. Louis, was also a generous contributor to the fund. Mr. Schnaider is always peady to respond to such calls. THE HYDE PARK BREWING COMPANY, through Mr. C. Aug. Forster, subscribed a handsome sum to help the hospital out of difficulty. THE H. GRONE BREWING COMPANY is another corporation which gave substantial aid. Mr. OTTO F. STIFEL of the Chas. G. Stifel Brewing Company, was one of the free and generous givers to the cause. THE JULIUS WINKELMEYER BREWING Con- PANY, which is always found in the lead of lo- cal enterprises, responded liberally to the ap- peal. THE BRINCKWIRTH & NOLKER BREWING Con- PANY was another representative of this large industry which came tothe front with a sub- scription. MR. D. P. SLATTERY is one of the citizens of St. Louis whose name is familiar in connection with nearly every charitabie enterprise in the city. He never fails to respond to every ap- peal for aid, and inthis case he was among the first to come to the front and give gener- ously to the fund. THE FAMOUS SHOE AND CLOTHING EMPORIUM, through Mr. E. P. V. Ritter, one of the Board of Directors and most active workers, which is always found in the front rank whenever there is the slightest occasion for public spirit or the exercise of charity, gave the usual prompt and liberal response to this call, Mr. Jon Tursox of the firm of n & Davidson lu one of the contributors o the hospital. Mr. Jonn A. Hotmes of J. A. Holmes & Co., thelumber merchants, is also a generous con- tributor. H. & L. CAS, the wholesale dealers in bags and bagging, are contributors to the fund. Mr. D. G. Cook of the American Wine Com- pany gave a liberal contribution. Mr. H. C. PrerRce, Vice-Presidentof the Waters-Pierce Oil Company, the largest es- tablishment of the kind west of the Missis- sippi, gladly contributed a large sum and couraged others to contribute to this worthy charity. Col. THOS. RICHESON, President of the Col- ller White Lead works, was one of the leading spirits in helping to raise the amount of the debt by not only donating his share, but by personal endeavors to secure the remainder. He stands at the head of the list of genérous citizens. Mr. W. E. CAurz, the resident manager of M. Ehret, Jr., & Co., the roofing-material dealers, is not generally in favor of pools, but he entered into the pool to raise the hospital debt with energy, and contributed substantial aid in every way. Mr. A. F. SHAPLEIGH, Presidentofthe A. F. Shapleigh & Cantwell Hardware Company, was, as usual, one of the first gentlemen to give aid, and said he welcomed the institu- tion, because it was broad-gauge and non-sec- tarian in its character. The siesta tent. Mr. Joun T. DRuMMOEND of the Drummond Tobacco Company was the only representative of the tobacco interests to contribute, but he did his full share, as is his custom, and more. RAILROAD CONTRIBUTORS. The railroad men were among the first to re- spond to the appeal of the Directors and many ot them did all in their power to help the cause. MR. 8. HM. H. CLARK, Vice-President and General Manager of the Missouri Pacific Rall road, although ais road has a hospital of its own, headed the list of contributors to the Protestant hospital and gave efficient aid. Cou. J. W. Forprce, President of the St. Louis, Arkansas & Texas Raliway, contributed a full share to the fund. CHAS. M. Hars, General Manager of the Wa- bash Western Rallway, and the late General Manager, A. A. Talmage, were earnest friends of the cause and contributed handsomely for their road. Mr. Jos Hut., Assistant General Mana- ger of the Vandalia Line, who, in a quiet way, is always ready to ald ina worthy charity, ro- sponded promptly to the appeal for the hos- pital. THE OHIO & Mississirrt ROAD COMPANT were also generous contributors to the fand. GEN.JOHN MCNULTA. Receiver of the Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railway, saw that bis line was represented in the good work. Tun St. Lois, Kawsas Crrr 4 Cotorapo Rallnoab Conuravr contributed their share of the $10,000 needed. | Tun br. Lobis- „ Sa¥-Frawcisco Rm COMPANY, through General Manager H. 1. THE CazRO SHORT LINE, through Vice-Presi- dent and General Manager Geo. W. Parker, who was one of the Board of Incorporators and most earnest and enthusiatic friends of the institution, gave its share toward the ex- cellent result. THE ATCHISON, TOPEKA & SANTA Fp Ran- ROAD, through General Manager J. F. God- dard, contributed aid of the most gratifying kind—hard cash. Morrill, were also among the first to ald the enterprise. TSE CHICAGO & ALTON RAILROAD ComPasr was notto be left out of the count of pro- gressive roads, and put a liberal subscription in the pool. AID FROM THE RIVER. While the commercial and railroad interests came to the front, the river transportation companies were not lagging behind, but also responded nobly, as the following list of con- tributors shows: MR. JOHN A. SCUDDER, President of the St. Louis & New Orleans Anchor Line, was one of a large share toward the excellent result. Mr. F. L. JOHNSTON, Secretary of the St. Louis & St. Paul Packet Company, and one of the Directors of the association, was naturally in the lead, and gave his personal efforts and his share of money to the cause. THE Sr. Louis & MISsIssirrI VALLEY TRANS- PORTATION COMPANY, through President Hen- ry C. Haarstick, were among the largest con- tridutors of the river interests. THE DIAMOND JO LINE, through the resi- dent agent, Mr. Isaac P. Lusk, who takes great interest in all such charities, gave liber- ally to the fund. CONTRIBUTIONS OF EXPRESS COMPANIES. All the transportation interests contributed handsomely, and the express companies must be put on the list of charitable corporations. THE PACIFIC EXPRESS COMPANY, through General-Manager L. A. Fuller, who was in hearty accord with the plan, remitted a gen- erous sum to the directors of the hospital. Mr. E. HAYDEN, Resident Manager of the American Express Company, was one ot the first torespond and gave valuable aid tothe active laborers of the hospital. OTHER CONTRIBUTORS. While special interests were thus — sented in the work of lifting the debt there were many individual citizens and corpora- tions who, as soon asthe need of the institu- tion became known to them, promptly gaye helping hands and were instrumental in guin- ing the fimal success of the hopes and of the hospital’s frien s. In the list which is wen below will be found some ot the leading rms and best citizens of St. Louis who are contributors to the amount raised: a MR. JOHN M. SELLERS, the manufacturer of roofs and roofing materials, was a personal and liberal contributor. MR. HUGH L. RANKEN, the well-known real estate agent, gave valuable assistance and a contribution to the work. R. N. . NELSON, the councilman and President of the N. O. Nelson Te meres 2 Company, who is always in the front ran when aid fora worthy cause is needed, con- tributed his share. Mr. E. W. DovuGras of the Kingsland & Douglas Manufacturing Company sent a check for his firm to swell the fund. THE Sr. LOUIS STAMPING COMPANY, one of the largest manufactories in the city, con- tributed promptly and generously. MR. ROBERT A. BARNES, who always can be counted on to ald any public or charitable enterprise, gladly responded to the appeal for this charity. SCRUGGS, VANDERVOORT & BARNEY, the well- known and leading dry goods merchants, were liberal contributors. Mrs. Dr. J. H. MCLEAN was one of thea largest personal contributors to the causeof the hospital. Evens & HOWARD, the proprietors of the largest fire-brick, gas-retort and fire-clay works in this country, subscribed a good sum for the fund. THE ST. LOUIS REFRIGERATOR AND WOODEN GUTTER COMPANY are on the list of contrib- utors. THE HYDRAULIC PRESSED BRICK COMPANY are also among the helpers of the cause. MESSRS. FINK & NASSE, the wholesale gro- cers, must be counted among those who gave ahelping hand. They only represented the grocers. Mr. A. MANSUR Of Deere, Mansur & Co., the manufacturers of farm machinery, was one of the best friends of the hospital. THE Sr. LOUIS PAPER COMPANY, who are among the most enterprising establishments of the kindin the West, added their share to the general amount. : THE TUDOR I[RON-WORKS, manufacturers of railway supplies, are ou the list of sub- scribers.

N BOOKS OF THE HOUR WHAT THE PUBLISHERS ARE GIVING THE PUBLIC FOR SUMMER BEADING. — ———" A Strong and Pleasant Story of New England Life—An Idy! of the Sussex Bills—‘‘Crack- er Joe, a Good Book in the No Name Series,” That Gives Some Entertaining Views of Southern Life—Literary Notes. . G. W. eee . S 2 e eany. 311 North Eleventh street, St. Louis. This is a tale of life on the hills of Sussex, Kugland. The hero and heroine of this, in some respects powerful narrative, are a boy | of 12 and agirl of 11. Nevertheless the story was not written for children. It is essentially a ‘‘grown up tale, although the narrative is a simple relation of the adventures of a boy fortwelve months. The little heroine does not appear until late in time and when she does she is not of much consequence to the plot. The scene is laid in England, near Brighton,on the South Downs. The narrator is the boy himself, who had only the doubtfal advantage of wealth to compensate him for a loveless and unhappy existence. Briefly told, the story is this: Thomas Swift, Jr., was the only son of 2 man who possessed and paraded that doubt ful ornament. a dee in his bon net. There was no end to his vagaries. His chief hobby consisted in torturing nature’s products into various unnatural forms. He trained pump- kins into glass forms of the human face divine; he poured chemicals at the feet of his loveliest roses, and reared fantastic monsters upon his hedges. Infact, he trained everything but his son, and him he allowed to run wild. This strange old man had one great antipathy. He hated ‘‘Papists’’ as he called them, and the only subjects on which he ever discoursed to his son was of the Scarlet Woman, the be- devilment of priestcraft and the necessity of exterminating what he was pleased to term „the whole brood of Papists’’ from the face of the earth. At length this strange old man was taken | sick unto death, and just before that event occurred he sent for his son, a timid and nervous child, and after frightening him to death by threatening to haunt him if he failed in his trust, presented him witha key and a sealed box. The key was to be thrown down the well; the box was to be kept a secret from every one until the boy was 18 years old, when he was to open it and do what he liked with what he found inside. Shortly afterwards he died. : Now Thomas, his son, was a highly nervous and imaginative lad, and after disposing of the key as directed he hid the box up the chimney. In due time the will was read, when it was discovered that the testator de- sired that his entire house ‘‘should be closed and sealed within fourteen days of his death with allthe contents, the doors and windows filledin and walled with solid masonry, and the chimneys leveled withthe roof, and se- curely closed with metal or stone, so that from cellar toroof no possible aperture or means of ingress to said house sbould re- main.’’ Twoold servants, Angelina Pilbeam and Joseph Spink, were left £1,000 on condi- tion that they Decame man and wife within two calendar months, and lived in a cottage to be built on the estate and remained in charge of the sealed-up house for the term of their natural lives. Now it naturally happened that people began to speculate upon this strange will, and strange whispers went abroad of the reasons for the proceeding, if aman so eccentric could be said to have any reason. Some years pre- viously a sister had come to visit the old gentieman. She had married aforeigner and adopted the Catholic faith. Old Thomas Swift was well known to hate Catholics, and one day when the sister disappeared suddenly and never reappeared, it was whispered that the old man had murdered her. The two old servants had heard a violent quarrel, with shrieks for help, and presently some heavy object was heard to go bump, bump, bump, down the cellar stairs. But the eccentricity of the old man was so well known that no inquiries were set on foot, but, in the face of this strange will, there were not wanting peo- ple to whisper that hes dead body was inthe cellar. Before walling up the house, however, the architect made a thorough search of the premises and found nothing. Even the cellar was empty save for afew old shelves that had rotted and fallen from the wall. So the house was bricked up, but while these events were progressing Thomas had rescued his legacy, the mysterious box, from the chimney, escaped from the house and buried it under a tree in the midst of the lonely downs. The old man’s legal advisers, Swomes and Middlemist, were appointed trustees and also guardian of the boy, who inherited the bulk of his father’s fortune. Shortly after the walling up of the house young Tom was sent for to London, and traveled up to the metropolis of the world ina first-class carriage. Here he made the acquaintance of Laura, achild of II, afterwards destined for his wife. These two precocious young people fell in love with one another at first sight, and their love did not cool upon reflection, either, which is more than can be said for the love of many who are older and presumably wiser. Tom lived quietly with his guardians for a month or two, and then was sent to school withagentleman named Wacker, who had a terribly literary wife. He went frequently to visit his guardians, however, and in the course of time became acquainted with some facts. One was that Mr, Swomes was trustee to his aunt's fortune (the aunt supposed to heve been murdered by his father) and had been engaged on a still-hunt for her for many years; the other that Laura, his charming friend of the train, was his first cousin. Mean- while, however, he became uneasy about the box bequeathed to him by his father and bor- rowed £5 from Mr. Middlemist to run down to Brighton and assure himself of its safety. On arrival he found that the earth he had placed around the box had been washed away by the rains, leaving his legacy exposed. 80 he took it to a place ‘‘under the cliffs by the sea’’ and there buried it again and returned to London. The box, however, was washed into the sea by a violent storm, whence it was rescued by Tom's enemy, a lad named Jerry, who had dogged his footsteps, and who brought it up to Mr. Middlemist. Finding his secret discovered, Tom readily told the whole story of the manner in which he became possessed of it. On being opened it was found to contain MSS. in his father’s handwriting in which he confessed to having murdered his sister and having buried her in the corner of the cellar. Down went the whole party to Brighton, the walled-up house was broken jinto and the cellar dug up. The box wasfound as described, but on being opened was found to contain nothing but crucifixes, relics, crosses and other emblems of the Catholic faith. 80 his story was a fabrication. He had not murdered his sister, after all. Or, ut all events, had not buried her in the place indicated. The mystery of the book is, of course, what became of the sister? This problem it is not the purpose of this review to solve. The story is well conceived, the plot original and, on the whole, interesting; but we think the author breaks down 4 little in the telling. Most, if not-all.of-the characters are bur - lezques, and well drawn. Pilbeam, the aggressive virgin; Spink, her husband; Middlemist,the criminal lawyer, and the crazy testator himself are all very smus- ing. But we submit thatthe author does not know, and will probably never now learn, how to draw a child. Laura is a precocious painfally goody-goody, but very unnatural lie- tle girl. Tom is a prig. Mr. Wacker, the pedagogue, isa natural and rather pathetic figure. His wife is unhappily a true picture of what sometimes is. There are perhaps rather too many plots and counterplots, which con- fuse the reader. But the story is amongst the best of the paper literature that has appeared this season, and the best advice we can give upon the subject is—read it. It is worth read- ing, and offers among its minor attractions a charming study of the musical Sussex dialect. 8 1 a rom News Company. To issue series of books, novels, scientific treatises and biographies from various au- thors and on various subjects under one grand title, has been fashionable with publishers of late years. There is much to be said in favor of the practice. It draws attention to the pub- lieations of the house, forms a good advertise- ment, and le wellreceived by readers, who, finding that they enjoy one book of the series, look out eagerly for others, in the not always justified expectation that they will find them equally enjoyable. One of the best of such series issued of late years in the fleld of fle- tion is the ‘‘No Name Novels’’ from the press of Roberts Bros. It is by no means a new enterprise, the first having been issued in 1876; and in the course of some forty succeed- ing volumes, most of which have been reviewed in these columns, the series has embraced many of the best novels ever published in America. All are issued anonymously; the name of the author is kept an inviolable secret, not to be given away even as an inducement to competition in guessing. It is understood that some of the best and most popular authors are engaged in helping forward the work, and taking Cracker Joe“ as a fair average speci- men volume of the series, we can well believe it. The success of each novel depends solely on the writer’s ability to catch and retain the reader’s interest. From anotber point of view the scheme is commendable on the ground that it gives talented but unknown writers an equal chance with those whose books sell by name alone. „Cracker Joe is a story of Florida life. The hero who gives his name to the tale has not very much to do with the story. He stands aside and watches the others play their parts in the life drama. There are many characters in the book, but all are interesting, and nearly all are typical specimens of Florida humanity. On the ground when the story opens we find Joe Carew (otherwise Cracker Joe) and his family; a negress servant named Pruny or CRACKER JOE. N erts Bros., 1887. 1 vol., Aunt Pruny; a recluse orange farmer named Hermit George, and an ad- venturess named Mrs. Beck, who seems to have deen pitehforked into the story for the sake of supplying an element of low comedy, and a deplorable family named Dunn. Joe Carew has succeeded in selling some outlying property known as The Old Fenn House. It porean evil reputation, was in lamentable disrepair and he was glad to get it off his hands. The purchaser is a New York merchant who failed in business, and who comes down to Fioridain the hope of retriev- ing his health and fortunes. Stella Ainsley, the eldest girl, is a bright and beautiful young creature andthe heroine of the story. She promptly falisin love with Hermit George, who returns the compliment, butit is hinted darkly that he cannot marry on account of some terrible crime committed in the past. At the end of the book it turns out that he never committed the crime at all, so they marry and are happy forever. The story is a little complicated. There are plots and counterplots. Six or seven disconnected stories are all told in one, whereby the reader is confused. It would have been det ter to tell the story a little moresimply. A pathetic character is Derry or Derintha Dunno, who is deeply in love with Hermit George and who dies of her disappointment. The concep- tion of the negro life is excellent and the story is entertaining and well worth reading if only as a study of Florida life in the present decade. AS IN A LOOKING-GLASS. By F. C. PHruips. New York: M.J.Ivers 4 Ce. 1 vol., paper covers. Price 20 cents. From the Lang Stationary & News Company, 709 Olive street. As In a Looking-Glass’’ is very amusing. „Naughty, but pleasant, as the heroine re- marks more than once in her pages. The lat ter is an adventuress—a society adventuress. That is to say, she is not admitted into the very highest ranks of society, but she is always trying to getin atthetop. The work profess- es to be her journal, in which she records her most secret thoughts and hopes, as- pirations and successes. She is 338 years of age, has been divorced from two husbands and is looking out for a third. She travels over the continent of Europe seek ing whom she may devour, and eventually lights upon a gentleman named Mr. Balfour. He isengaged toa young ladyin every way worthy of him, but such small obstacles as these are trifles light as air in the hands ofa woman like Mrs. Despard. Telling the young girl (who is a good deal more easy to gull than most girls whom we have met) a few specious lies about her betrothed, she easily per. suades her to write anote dismissing her lover, but giving no reason save that she finds she has mistaken the state of her affections. The young man rushes off heart-broken to the con- tinent, followed by Mrs. Despard, who succeeds in so working upon the young man’s feelings that he marries her—in ignorance of course of her character and the various little schemes she has been practicing on his behalf. Now unfortunately Mrs. Despard has an old lover named Jack“ who knows all her schemes and has her com- pletely in his power. He is a scoundrel of the deepest dye, and finally betrays her to her husband. The unhappy woman, seeing all her schemes failing, commits suicide. One of the best (or worst) features of the story is that the character of this miserable woman is so skillfully drawn and her despair so weil portrayed that the reader insensibly grows in- terested in her and toward the end actually pit- ies her. She is very amusing and her little van- ities, white lies and intrigues are admirably delineated. Her hairbreadth escapes are sec- ond only to those of ‘‘Pamela,’’ though jn an opposite direction, and the story is full of lively situations and sparkling dialogue. Gatherings. Henry Mahew, the first editor of Punch, is dead. He is the last of the little band who, on July 17, 1841, produced the comic journal which has now become almost a necessity in an edu- cated Englishman's life. * Mr. Lew Vanderpoole will contribute the complete novel to the September Lippincott. It is calied ‘‘The Red Mountain Mines.’’ Mr. Robert Lonis Stevenson will visit the United States in the fall, sending home notes by the way. His next literary task, however, will be to arrange in a volume bis poems, new and old, of which Messrs. Chatto & Windus are to be the publishers. * The Lite of Pope Leo XIII.“ is published.

The others either do not know what attractions they will have or are afraid if they mention them that some other manager will come in and take them away. The bookings this season are undoubtedly slow, and the number of attractions expected onthe road is greatly reduced, so that the scramble for the best is vigorous. The noveities of any magnitude can be counted on the fingers of one hand. The chances are, therefore, that the managers who are keeping their attractions so dark are Only trying to hide the vacant places in their books, and are ashamed of the few genuine novelties which they have to offer. There is an additional probability, which may panies last spring under the operation of the interstate commerce law, that some of the at- tractions booked will failto reach, and that many are extremely uncertain. The prospect for the seasonis certainly not brightfor St. Louis. The greatest foreign attraction which will come tothis country is Henry Irving’s production of ‘‘Faust,’’ which is described as simply marvelous in its spectacular beauty and realism. This attraction is not booked at any St. Louis theater and Mr. Irving at present has no intention of coming here. Whether he may be induced to change his plans or notisa matter of grave doubt as he missed St. Louis on his last tour in America. His — were excellent at his first and last en ement here, but, it is said, he cannot get over a fancied insult offered to him by some news- paper during that visit. At the head of the attractions which are booked here, and in fact, the only really great combination, is the Booth and Barrett joint venture. They will be at the Olympic for one week during the latter part of October, and for another week later in the season. The reduction inthe road companies has been considerable, some managers — the decrease at about 80 per cent, althoug this is a rather high estimate. A well-known New York theatrical states that at least forty companies traveling last year will be out of the list this year. This is, perhaps, the lowest estimate. Rose Coghian, who made a splendid record in high comedy last season, will return to Wallack’s Theater stock com- ogy & Among the new attractions which will e on the road and will probably visit this city are the Union Square Company in Jim the Penman,’’ Mrs. James Brown Potter, Hoyt’s Hole in the Ground,“ Helen Dau- vruy s Highest Bidder,’’ Kiralfy’s new dra- matic spectacular piece, ‘‘Lagadere,’’ John A. Mackay, the comedian, in 4 Cfreus In Towu, Richard Mansfeld in Monsieur“ and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and several other lesser lights. In music the outlook is darker still. Unless the American Opera Company should be revived in some shape there is little chance of grand opera, although Mapleson is talking of a season in this country. Duff has a new opera or two for the season, and the Dunlap Opera Company is a new organization under the management of Mecaull's late manager. Vernona Jarbeau makes her debut as a star in a musical comedy entitled ‘‘Starlight,’’ aud Conreid & Hermann will be here with Tobe Gipsy Baron.’’ The season at the Grand will open on August 28 with Milton and Dollie Nobles in their new play from Sire to 8on.’’ The Olympic willopen one week later, Sep- tember 5, with Haverly’s Mastodon Minstre as the attraction. The opening atthe People’s will take place Saturday evening, August 27. The attraction will be Martin Hayden, the young St. Louis actor,in his entertaining nautical drama,‘‘The Boy Hero. An opening address will be made by Mr. Louls A. Steher, the attorney, and the company will include the Jubilee Quartet. The company is now rehearsing at the thea- ter. Manager Mitchell says he has nearly every week of the season filled and will offer among the new attractions Miss Maud Banks, daughter of Gen. N. P. Banka, in ‘‘Joan of Are, James Corden and Mark Lynch, the London actors, in TWwo Roads with Rose Coghlan’s company, and among others Gus Williams in a new play, Patti Rosa, Myra Goodwin in ‘‘The Butterfly,’’ Francis Bishop in Muggs Landing, Lizzie Evansin a new lay, Edwin Arden in ‘‘Eagile’s Nest, Wal- ick’s Cattle King,’’ Oliver Byron, Newton Beers in Lost in London, Tony Denier’s Humpty Dumpty, Fete Baker ln Chris and Lena,“ Charles Gardiner in Karl. Pope’s Theater opens under the manage ment of Havlin and Robb, with Miss Jennie Yeomans in Our Jennie,“ on Saturday evening, August 27. Mr. O. L. Hogan will be the active manager, and Mr. Howell E. Robb Will de the treasurer and Mr. Charles Lewis the assistant treasurer. The theater has been thoroughly renovated and the decorations re- touched and improved. Oneof the novelties Se — season will be Frank Daniels in % Pn eK. The Standard season will open on septem- ber 3 with Harry Miner’s ‘‘Silver King’’ Com- pany as the first attraction. All the theaters are being put in excellent shape with new — and with thorough reno- vation and refittings, so that they will start off iooking as attractive as possible. Last Nights at the Cave. With next week the seasonat the Cave, which has enjoyed varying success, but which on the whole has sustained the reputation of the garden as a popular resort, will close. For the final attraction, the management have chosen the most successful of the operas pro- duced during the season, ‘‘Macaire.’’ It is bright and catchy musically, and is full of fan from beginning toend. With the exception of two members, Miss Porteous and the late Miss May, the cast will be the same as before, and capital performances may be expected. The opera will be put on to-morrow night. BENEFIT PERFORMANCES. On Monday night Mr. George W. Denham, whose work has been a source of enjoyment to every patron ofthe Garden, will be given a complimentary benefit. The Garden should be packed that night, as a compliment to the clever comedian. The company, as a fitting tribute to the memory of Alice May, have arranged to give & matinee performance at the Olympic on Wednesday afternoon next, the totai proceeds of which are to be devoted to the erection of a suitable monument to mark the last resting- piace of their late associate. It is a cause which appeals to those who admired and en- — Miss May’s work in life. iss Louise Searle, the clever prima donna of the company, will be tendered a benefit on the last evening of the season, when doubt- less her many friends will fili the auditorium to the gates. — — — — | JOHN STETSON’S SCHEME. in New York. By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcu. New Tonk, August 200.—A theater that is to cost $1,000,000 is to be opened in this city in October, 1888, and John Stetsonjis the manager and part owner. This piece of theatrical news was telegraphed by Mr. Stetson yesterday to Mr. Chas. Schroeder, acting-manager of the Fifth Avenue Theater. Stetson’s telegram further stated that he would not renew his lease on the Fifth Avenue Theater. He prefers hereafter, to his own landlord and save expenses for rent. Aoting-Man Schroeder said that the new theater would located up- town, but would not tell where. He also de- clined to say who Mr. Stetson’s ners in the enterprise were, farther than admit that they were New Yorkers. He declared that Mr. Stetson’s syndicate was not the one was organized last year with FI, 000 dal to bulld a monster theater and 6 and concert hall om the site of the Madison Square Garden. is for Stetson wil be deduced from the fate ot so many com- The Manager to Build a $1,000,000 Theater of the Fifth Avenue will not permit.

The theater will be in a large building, in which there will be room for stores and offices on the founsides of the block. The new theater, said Mr. Stetson, will have no superior in this country. American Opera Prospects. While there has been a great deal written in attempted demonstration of the statement that the American Opera Companys absolute- ly defunct, it is by no means the case. The date secured and still held by the company for this season’s engagement is December 5. According to advices received by Mr. Leopold Methudy, who has been the most active and earnest friend of the enterprise in this city, Manager Charles Locke is — in reorgan- izing the company for the winter. There will be some changes in the force, of course. Herr Silva will be the tenorin place of Wm. Candidus, but this change will for the bet- ter. Mr. Heinrichs will lead the orchestra in place of Mr. Thomas, and it is probable, from an operatic standpoint, there will be gain in this. Manager Locke promises opera on a3 grand and beautiful a scale as before. Maggie Mitchell and Daughter. Loug Branch Letter to Chicago Inter-Ocean. There is no more venturesome swimmer in the West End than Maggie Mitchell. Every afternoon at 5 o’clock she comes over the cliff from her Hollywood cottage, with her daugh- ter Fanchon, a timid young girl, who has the freshness of the sea in her face and ite light in her eyes. She wears a bathing suit of jet- black jersey cloth, with tiny duckies at her knees and a black turban knotted over her temples after the style of the Rubens Madonnas.

Sheisup and on her feet, like a jack-in-a-box with the cover open, and filled with as much merriment as brine; she openg her mouth, empties one ear and then the other, takes a long breath, gulps down a remnant of salt water with a dubious smile of relish, pulls the gathers of her skirt round, squeezes her knotted kerchief, and falls down in the bot sand, left leg first, and, folding the other knee inher arms, looks across the sea. The Latest Realism. The Still Alarm’’ will be produced at the Fourteenth Street Theater August 29. The third actis laid in the Central Fire Engine House, New York city. The villain of the play visits the place and cuts the wires connecting the alarm, to prevent the arrival of the engine at afire which he kindles ina building for the purpose of destroying a man who possesses a secret which would hang him. In this same building is sleeping the bedridden mother and sweetheart of the hero of the play, whois the driver ofthe engine.

From the Stage to a Title, and Finally to the Mad House. From Paris Letter to Boston Transcript. The mad-houses are becoming rapidly peo- pled with persons of note. Jeanne Andree was afew days since taken to the asylum of St. Anne. This is the dismal ending of a dazzling career. Jeanne Andree was an actress who shone more by her beauty than by her talent, but she nevertheless shone with an extraord- inary luster. She owned magnificent car- riages, hurses of the purest blood, and jewels fit for an empress. or a few years she was the — 8 beauty of Paris. Then the whim entered her head that she would like a title. She had no difficulty in finding one. She de- came the Comtesse de Beguelin and was taken by her husband to Berlin. The count having died, she left Germany for Russia, and there became a morganatic grand duchess. When the war of 1870 broke out she returned to Paris and transformed the mansion which she still owned here into an ambulance. She dressed the wounds of the soldiers who were brought in and earned the lasting gratitude of many. Since the war she has been almost for- otten.Of the fortunes which her extravagance ad engulfed nothing at length remained. She had lived upon her last jewels when, a few weeks since, charity onganized a peformance for her benefit at the Gaiete. The receipts barely covered the expenses. For years she was engaged ina lawsuit in connection with the estate of the Comte de Beguelin. She was convinced that when the settlement came she would have at least 100,000 francs. A fort- night ago she was informed that she had ained her case, and that, the expenses being educted, she was entitlea to 4 000 franes. This shock wastoo much for her brain. She told her friends that she had just inherited a fortune of several millions and went to the Palais Royal to buy children’s toys. She or- dered 12,000 dolls, 5,000 Punches and 3,000 boxes of leaden soldiers. It was perceived that she was a lunatic, and the police found her lodg- ings which were considered suitable to her case. Jeanne Andree, the reigning beauty of other days, the breaker of fortunes, the witty brilliant woman; has lost her beauty, her riches and her reason. Coulisse Chat. .

Wrenched His Back. LYNDONVILzE, Orleans Co., N. T., April 2, 1885. About a year ago, I imprudently stepped off the Hudson River cars while they were in mo- tion. In trying to save myself from a fearful fall I wrenched my back terribly, The next day I could not walk, and I suffered pain from my neck to my heels. Various applications were made, but nothing which was done abated my suffering. Being anxious to get up and attend to business, I determined to place three ALLCOCK’S POROUS PLASTERS, one above the other, on my back. In about an hour and a half they caused considerable itching. The pain and soreness sensibly decreased, and I rested pretty well that night. The next morn- ing the itching began to be quite severe under the plasters. To get some relief, I had my back well rubbed crossways over the Plasters. I was surprised within two hours afterwards to find the pain and soreness almost gone. I stayed in bed that day, and the morning after- wards I got up and attended to business. O. T. PETTMAN. deen dance ofr In the ‘‘Hole farce com THE HOUSEROLD.

When the new ordinance went into effect the city was wrestling with a financial problem, which necessitated some changes in the plan. The one great point to be scored during the present year was to inaugurate the system and to take the sprinkling out of the hands of the contractors, who were governed by no adequate provisions, and were not pro- hibited from demanding exorbitant payments for rendering a service over which no one had an authorized supervision.

It is outrageous the way they sprinkle, or rather fail to sprinkle, the streets in my neighborhood, and — people are all ‘*kicking.’’ They woul actually rather pay themselves to have it done properly than thereabouts—the sprinkling that is being done is not at all satisfactory, and anumber of peo- ple have called on me to get up a protest against Comptroller Campbell paying the con- tractors for their work until it is properly done. I have advised them to wait awhileand give the contractors a further chance, and then if they still fail to do their work proper- ly the protest can be made. These men should certainlyoot be paid a cent except their work n done. arry Harris: Oh, this general sprinkling is magnificent.

Gould expressed himself thus: I am leased to see the stand ofthe Post-DISPATCH n regard to sprinkling the streets and the suo- cess that followed it. It seemed hard for one paper to convince the city fathers that some- thing had to be done to abate sucha nuisance as the dust, but the Pgst-Disratcu did its : S. Reber said the Post-DISPATCH’S stand in requesting and compelling the city fathers to sprinkle the_ streets was admirable, and the paper deserves much praise for the noble undertaking. Alex. Hecker said: Had it not been for the Post- DISPATCH we would be still in the same It is a great benefit to all. Dr. Max Starkloff said: The Post-DISPATCH’S sprinkling boom, although 1 telt here Mursday and even then at a late hour, isa big thing. This matter, which was so suc- cessfully carried out, has benefited us to a boundless extent, and our dusty streets will soon be something of the past. Dr. E. E. Webster would like to see more carts and more water to lay the dust with, but terminated his talk by saying that the Post-DIsPaTCH deserved many thanks for the effort to benefit so many thousands of people. John Krauss expressed himseif as follows: Beyond a doubt the Post-DISPATCH deserves much credit for abating such a nuisance as the dust, which couid be seen in any quantity here. The sprinkling isa much needed-benefit blessing and I appreciate the work done by the POST-DISPATCH in getting it for us. 1 narrow escapes. I call it our bill because I in- troduced it and were it not for the Post-Dis- every reason to be weil pleased with the oper- ation ofthe bill. I want to say, by the way, that while in Philadelphia I noticed that the sprinkling carts drew their supplies from the tire-plugs altogether. Ithink that the prop- osition to establish separate plugs is not a wise one; itonly involves more expenditures in an undertaking that is yet in its infancy. into effect I have seen no reason for changing my views.

Ed Kelly: Out on Geyer and Oregon avenues we are very much with the sprinkling. You see it takes in streetsthat didn’t know what water meant before, and as all the streets get a dose, the thing is evened up. Keep on sprinkling, say I. George McManus: You bet this sprinklin business is the greatest thing on earth. All what we have been wanting for years, but the contractors are shirking their work fright- fully. I have told the Fire Department and the Superintendent of the Morgue to watch the work of the contractors and report them when they fail todoit properly.

Hinsman said: The POST-DISPATCA de- serves many thanks for its undertaking to lay and the PostT-DISPATCH, ercise on clean streets much more than you do riding through clouds of dust. I think, by the way, that whoever has the contract for sprinkiing Lindell boulevard deserves to be complimented. He is doing his work well. John Schneider, Second Carondelet and Park avenues, said: The sprinkling is not satisfac- tory as yet. The carts come twice a day and barely wet the street. When they get to work regularly I think it will be better. The city can be sprinkled much more cheaply by the city than by householders, and proper sprink- ling will be a —_ benefit and saving to all. Bannon & Co., 1802 Lafayette avenue, are A. J.
