Robert Hooper left the consulate yesterday morning ill. Consul-General Rathbone thinks that itis erysipelas. Rathbone takes no holi- day this year. He says that the consulate gives bim a great deal to do. There will be no public celebration of the 4th of July in Paris. John Rogers is very sick with asore throat.

Its title is ‘‘Disparu’’ and it appeared originally in feuilleton in Le Petit Journal. The publishers say that it prom- ises to be the biggest success ofthe year. The same publishers will bring out a new novel by George Ohnet in October called Dr. Ra- meau, for which the trade has already or- dered 50, 000 copies. Dr. Thomas W. Evans says that he has still under consideration the project of endowing schools and hospitals in America but has not as yet definitely made up his mind on the sub- ject. A FETE ON THE FOURTH. Dr. Rudy of Rue Royale Institute gives a big fete on the evening of the Fourth of July to the leading members of the American colony here. Anumberof French actors and act- resses have been engaged to entertain the guests. Prado, who has been arrested for the mur der of Marie Aguettant, which for along time was thought to bethe work of Pranzini, is known in Parisasan American. He does not appear, however, ever to have been in Amer- ica. Rajon, the eminent eteher, who died some days ago, has acknowledged his greater popu- larity in New York and London than in his own country by bequeathing a sum of money for an etching prize in the Metropolitan School of Art, New York, and another for the Society of British Artists. It is expected that several of his plates willbe prosented to the Art Museum in New York by his executors. & MONSTER BANQUET. The anniversary of the overthrow of the Bastile is to be celebrated this year with exceptional pomp. Among other arrangements there will be a monster banquet in one of the exhibition buildings, Champs de Mars, at which President Carnot, 8,000 Depu- ties, Senators and provinelal Mayors will be dined, ; CHENONCEAUX TO BE SOLD. The historie chateau of Ohenonceaux in Touraine where Diane de Poictiers lived and loved und De Medicis planned and plotted, now in the possession of Wilson’s sister, Mme. Lapelpuze, has been seized by bailifie and will shortly be put up at aue tion. Mme. Lapelouze’s debts exceed $500,000, including such small sums as $8 toa local baker. Neither Grevy nor Wilson would help their kinswoman in the least. The pictu- resque feature of Chenonceaux Castile is that it is built on a bridge spanning the Cher River, and is a most unique speeimen of architect- ure. In the archives of the castle are docu; ments dating back to the twelfth century. THE EFFECTS OF THE HEAT. Oppressive heat that is felt in Paris has been turning the heads of some of the officials here. A prominent police inspector was seen two days ago attempting to walk on his hands in Champs Elysee. After this exercise he went back to his office, locked himself in and let off a number of freworks which had been seized by his order. The revocation of two local Mayors for eccentricities of conduct has aleo taken place this week. CURIOUS DIVORCE STATISIICS. Statistics of the working of the divorce law in France afford curious reading. The total number of petitions filed from 1834 to 1886 ex- coeds twenty thousand couples; twenty-four couples had been married fifty years; fif- teen Darbys asked to be separated from fifteen Joans without a divorce. The largest number of disagreeing couples had been married from five to ten years; 109 couples wanted’ to be divorced before the honeymoon had waned. Of 3,626 cases, vio- lence was the ground of the application. Of the applications for divorce in 1886, 8 per cent resulted inthe severance of the couples. — THE THANET ELECTION.

Had not the Liberals hoped for too much such a gain on their part in any part of Kent would have been hailed as a great triumph, and such it was; but Mr. Gladstone is not satisfied. THE PAN-ANGLICAN SYNOD. The Pan-Anglican Syned hag opened its session in the uainté und beauti- ful old town 0 Canterbury. No finer place could have been chosen for such an assembla All the associations of Canterbury are — 2 and its traditions run back to the be inning of Christianity in England. It is still the official center of the Church of England and holds the See of the archiepiscopal primacy of the land. Within its walls is the cathedral known throughout the world for its majestic beauty and historic fame. In this noble Christian temple the synod assembled to-day, composed of prelates and divines from all parts of the world. There was a special service, at which the Archbishop of Canterbury assisted. The singing by the fine choir was exceedingly impressive. At the luncheon which followed in the Arch- bishop’s house speeches were made, and among the speakers was the Bishop of Minne- sota. The United States and the Canadas are well represented in the synod. — —Uñä— A TAX FOR RETURN, The Dominion Government's Demand in the Case ofthe Chinese. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsraTcu. OTTAWA, Ontario, June 30.—The Dominion Government has instructed the Collector of Customs at Victoria, British Columbia, to per- mit Chinese who have smuggled themselves. across, the border into the United States under no. oeircumstances what- ever to return to Canads without r of $50 per capita on landing. This the out- come of an attempt which was recently made by United States officials to send large numbers of Chinamen back to British Columbia, but which was prevented through the Interference of Cana- dian officials. Reports from British Colum- bia state that within the past twelve months there has been a very large depletiou of Chinese population nearly due to the exodus of Chinamen to Washington Terri tory, Where they are smuggled and where more profitable employment is to be found than on this side of the line. The Government repudiates any responsibility in the matter, and positively refuses to allow them to return uniess the per capita tax is paid either by themselves or by the United States authori. ties. Mr. Pulitzer in Paris. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. Paris, June 80.—On Friday Mr. Joseph Pu- litzer, proprietor of the WORLD and PosT-DIs- PATCH, visited the establishment of Le Petit Journal, This paper announces his arrival in Paris in common with the Figaro and ? Evene- ment, and speaks of him as the most réemarka- ble journalist In America. It adds that he has been able to raise the WORLD to the position of the first newspaper in America, its daily circulation averaging 300,000 copies. Mr. Pu- litzer has taken passage on the City of New York for its second trip to New York on Sep- tember 5. He is much better. Coquslin at Mrs. Mackay’s Soiree. PaRIS, June 30.—Coquelin the younger, ac- companied by Mile. Reichemberg, will play at Mrs. Mackay’s soiree in London on July 5. The Posr-Dtsrarck corréspondent called on Coquelin to-day and found him réhearsing Banville’s ‘‘Le Baiser’’ with a charming young actress. He has been laid up with a tumor for the last ten days, and is still forced to keep his room, but thinks he will be well enough to cross over to London on Tuesday next. He said that the piece he had to play was one called ‘*Mesmerized Hypno- tisse,’’ which will be followed by monologues. Both parts of She programme are very Frenshy in eharacter, and may call some blushes to the cheeks of Mrs. Mackay’s guests. LINCOLN ARRIVES. Robert Lincoin and daughter arrived in Paris this morning.

It was literally a case of Mohammed seeking the mountain, for Kimmewick Hill, six miles {from Montesano Springs, is the mearest decilivity worthy of a wheel- man’s prowess, and especially of such wheelmen as Greenwood and Wells, who stand alone amongthe great army of wheel- menthronghouttbe country as hill climbers par excellence. Yesterday’s contest was the first heat of a series for the amateur championship which the Post-DisPatTca had already much to de in bringing about, and its representative appeared as the only St. Louis newspaper man on hand. The clambering of hills on wheels of steel is, it may be said for the benefit of the un- initiated, a feat dear to the heart of the bi- cycier in ratio to the declivity presented for his skill,and in the East there are annual meets to test the lungs and endurance ot wheelmen in th s par- ticular manner.

W. M. Brewster, Ohief Consul of the League of American Wheelmen for Missouri, was chosen as referee, acting also in the capacity of starter. He was attended at the start by one of the judges, W. 8.

Sto watches, similarly timed, were held at eac end, with two men to ciearthe road at each of the four bends. THE RACE. Greenwood won the toss and ohose the sec- ond mount, but one contestant ascending at a time. Promptly at 6:10 Wells was under way, stariing in a spurt. He had reached half the distancein 3 min. 2s8ec., when the staff of his pedal gave way beneath the strain, and his machine came to a halt. There was a murmur of disappoint- ment, but the accident did not stop the race, although the rider gave up this attempt. Greenwood got away promptly at 6:15, and then the interest of the event had reached its climax. Slowly at first, then faster and faster his wheel revolved, until the cheering fellows who followed him had need to strike a dog trot up the grade in order to keep pace with the splendid efforts of the rider. ‘‘Go it, old man, they cried, and the ‘fold man’’ wentit. Greenwood spurted as he rounded the fourth turn. He stood straight over the saddle and his face was set and determined. As he neared the finish his wheel began to wabble, but he manfully persevered, and when he reached the line an exhausted man, a great cheer went up, for he had accomplished the climb in just 5 minutes and 54 seconds. He himself was disappointed, and showed bis friends as he lay panting onthe grass how he had forgotten to remove a string used on the brake from his wheel, and how it beoame entangled with the lever of his machine, thereby retarding him greatly. WELLS’ SECOND ATTEMPT. Some delay was experienced in adjust- ing A new strap to the ped- al ot Wells’ wheel, but when the plucky Philadelphian got away at 6:47, his ascent was watched with breathless interest. He was doing his best,buteven that was not sufficient, and when be crossed the line completely dead beat by a finaleffort to spurt, his face was quite white. He had been beaten by ten ing made, the cliinb 0 sec. This finished the race, but Wells ie not discouraged.- He says that he is at hie best where greater endurance is required, and fondly believes that he will come out in the East with flying colors. He went so far as to insist that he would climb Kimmswick twelve times witnout a dismount, gee to put up money as an earnest of his ab:lity but fe is not probable that the wager will be taken. The contest yesterday was un- doubtedly one calling for great endurance, speed and judgment, and Greenwood is to be felicitated. The party of wheelmen did not reach the city till after 10 p. m. but its members were much elated. A num- ber of the St. Louis cyclers started for the train with the wagons, monnted on their wheels, and arrived at the station over halfa hour before the vehicles, traversing a rougher road than the one leading to De Soto, with only five dismounts. A number of machines were disabled on the trip. SAVED BY A CRADLE SONG. Narrow Escape of a Young Jewess From a Fate Worse Than Death. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. SPRINGFIELD, Mass., June 30.—Polly, the 8- year-old daughter of M. Hockinberg,a Hebrew merchant who carries on a small store on Worthington street, passed through a strange experience last night. In the afternoon she told her mother thata strange man had in- vited herto ride on the horse cars, prom- ising to pay her fare to Chicopee. Her mother forbade her going and the child returned to her play. Soon after she disappeared one of her play- mates said she had got aboard a horee car with astrange man. Later the child returned and said she had been enticed aboard a Chicopee horse car soon after leaving the house by a roughiy-clad stranger, who had promised her a new pair of stockings and shoes and some candy. Arrived at Chicopee ust before dark the stranger induced the girl sSecmnpeny him to a lonely spot onthe outskirts o the town. While there he conducted himself in a manner that fright- ened the child, who wanted to go home. he rascal strove tocalm her fears and had par- tially succeeded when the notes of a cradle song, by some one driving a ped- dling cart along a lonely road, were heard. Polly recognized the song her mother had sumg as a lullaby to her. She cried out to the late traveler, who reined in his horse and inguired what she wanted. The child recognized the voice as that of her father’s cousin, a young man who drove a cart for him. The abductor at this poiut fearing the young man intended to hand him over to the police, jumped to the roadand disappeured in the darkness. Polly isa little girl. Her parents believe that her mother’s luilaby is all that saved her from outrage and possible death at the hands of her abductor, who, from the description, is believed to be the same fellow who, on the first of the week, entered three different houses in West Spring field, occupied by widow women, each of whom he grossly insulted. He was noticed on Main street this afternoon attempting to entice two little girlsfrom the city and was frightened off only by the appearance of the two reporters, to whom the children said a man, a stranger to them, had offered them candy to go with him into the country to pick flowers. The abductor is still at large. WILL RESULT IN LAW SUITS. Parties Caught by the Corner in June Coffee Refuse to Pay Up. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCH.

A Morning Murder at Mount Vernon, N. ¥.— Officer Thomas Woods Attempts to Ar- rest Brouty on a Charge of Wife-Beating and Brouty, Rather Than Submit to Ar- rest, Empties the Barrel of a Shotgun at the Officer—The Murderer Captured After a Desperate Struggle. By Telegraph to the Posr-DisTATou. New Yorx, June 23.—Policeman Thomas Woods of Mount Vernon, N. Y., was shot and almost instantly killed in that village about 8 o’clock this afternoon by Frank Edward Brouty, whom he was trying to arrest, A little over a year ago Brouty mar- ried Louisa Forshee in this city. It Is said that she was well acquainted here, and that her father furnished the marble used in the completion of the Equitable Life Insurance Oo.’s building. Immediately after their marriage they moved to Mount Vernon, where Brouty's father had been engaged for years as a florist. Their honeymoon was of short du- ration. Hardly had she been installed in the home of Brouty’s parents before he com- menced to ill-treat her. Inthis it is said he was encouraged and even aided by his mother. The young’ wife stood his ill treatment for some time butone night she appealed to Justice Ed- munds for relief. On her complaint a war- rant was issued and THE HUSBAND ARRESTED. On the night the complaint was made Brouty had turned her out of the house. The following morning in court he promised to do better and begged his wife's forgiveness. This she granted and consented to return to live with him. They hardly reached the street in front of the Court-room, however, before Brouty struck her, knocking her to the ground, atthe same time remarking with an oath: ‘‘I’m through with you. You go your way and I'll go mine. Two constables, who were standing near, saw the assault and took him once more be- fore Judge Edmunds. He was tried and sentenced to the Penitentiary for six months. After serving his time he returned home and his brutality increased. He declared that no officer should ever arrest him again. His atient wife endured his treatment until bis morning she was again obliged to invoke the ald ofthe law. Brouty and she had a misunderstanding, in which his mother sided with him. Brouty struck his wife and turned her out of the house, telling her never to return again. Mrs. Brouty went with her 3-months-old child to Justice Barrington’s office and into his ears she poured her tale of suffering and on her affidavit a warrant was issued for Brouty’s arrest. This warrant was entrusted to Policemen White and Jos. Marz for service. The officers expected trouble, but did not think that Brouty would resort to murder. When they reached Brouty’s house he was at word inthe garden. When he saw them ap- proaching, and before they had reached the gate, he dropped a flower-pot from his hands and, turning toward them, said: „ know what you're after,andif you take me you take me dead. As he said this he ran behind the hot-houses and returned with a double-barrelled shotgun in his hand. Tapping the gun angrily, he said: 1 have not only this, but I have a pistol as well. At the same time he drew a revol- ver from his hip pocket. The officers did not think it wise to attempt to arrest him and re- turned to Justice Barrington's office and told bim of their fears. Justice Barrington sent for Constable Thomas Woods remarking, ‘‘I’li get a man to bring that fellow in.“ Woods was given the warrant and he started to arrest Brouty. The latter was still at work in the garden when Woods arrived. The officey opened the gate and advanced towards him. When within ten feet of him he said: ‘‘Frank, I have a warrant for you, and I am going to take you with me. BROUTY’S MOTHER ran towards the officer as she heard this and seized him by the arm. As she did so, the gon icked up the gun which was lying at his eet and said: ‘‘Stand back, mother. am going to kill that fellow.“ Mrs. Brouty stepped promptly to one side, and without another word Brouty leveled the un at the officer and fired. Wood fell at the ret fire. As he lav prostrate Brouty seize the barrel of his gun and tried to club the dead man with the stock. The butt, however, hit the fence and snapped. Officers White and Marz were following Wood and saw him fall, and as Broutz was about to raise the gun to make another attempt to Strike him they § seized him, and after a desperate struggle overpowered him and and placed him under arrest. Mrs. Brouty was also arrested and both were taken to the county jail. The wody of the murdered officer was removed to Burr Davis’ morgue at Mount Vernon. The charge of shot had entered the left side,tearing through the kidneys and breaking the vertebra. Mur- phy and Jones made a post-mortem examin- ation and said that death must have been instantaneous. The gun was loaded with heavy duck-shot, and the distance between the murdered man and the murderer was 80 slight that even the gun-wads penetrated the body and the skin was burnt with powder. Woods, who was 50 years of age, was a member of the New York Police force in 1865 and was at one time in the United States Navy. He leaves a wife and five children. WHIPPED BY A FAIR AMAZON, Janitor Jackson Puclicly Cowhided by a Pretty Blonde in New York. By Telegraph tothe Post-DISPaTcnH. NEw YORK, June 30.—A pretty young woman in a dark brown dress, with one of those big leghorn hats set back on her head, stood on the corner of Broadway and Thirty-fifth street this afternoon. Just across the way stood an elderly man. Her face was pleasant and smiling, and his troubled. The wan took several steps towards the girl, then paused, took another step and halted again. The girl’s smile became more reassuring and the man approached with confident steps. The nearer he came the vaguer became the girl’s smile, and u hen he was within a footof her the smile hud gone. The | ps s were set. Her eyes flashed, quick as lightning she drew a cow-hide from beneath the folds of her dress and banged him over the head with it. She wasa well-built girl and every — left a livid mark on tbe man’s face and neck. „Take that! and that! and that, too!’’ cried the girl, her face crimson and the words coming through her set teeth. She laid on the whip with all her strength. The man endeavored to seize the instrument of torture and, not 9 he began to beat a retreat toward the middie of the street. The young woman followed him closely, bringing’ the whip down upon him at each step. She paid no attention whatever to the crow which hegan to encircle them. Finally, according to the story of some of the witnesses, the man fell upon his knecs in the roadway. The young woman de sisted for a moment, looked at him soornfully and said. Weil, I guess I bave nearly fin- ished.’’ The man scrambled to his feet and fied. The young woman was Mami Gilpin, a nurse in the empivy of Mrs. Otto Bowski, who oc- cupies apartinents on the first floor of the big flat opposite Harrigan’s Park Theater She is a blonde with regular features und elegant physique. The man was J. Jackson, the janitor of the flat, who lives with his wite in the basemeutof No. 126 West Thirty-fifth street, near the big flat. He is a little man, with iron gray hair. Miss Gupiu was engaged by Mrs. Bowski about six months ago, and ever since her appear- ance in the neighborhood she has not been on friendly terms with Jackson. They have had many petty quarrels and Miss Gilpin has o/ten threatened to whip him. Last Monday Jackson found Mrs. Bowski’s baby carriage in the hall. This angered the janitor and he complained to Mrs. Bowski of the curelessness of the nurse. The followin she bought the cowhide for 2% cents an nesday waited for the enemy. Jackson last night that the giri did not succeed in ing him more than once or twice and that he took the whip away from her. It is hinted that the youn woman had some other ouuse for using whip.

Her bonnet was in keeping with this costume, and she wore light-colored undressed kid gloves. At her waist was caught a small bunch of white roses. Sheis neither so slender nor so gracefulas she was several years ago, but is an undeniably handsome woman. A small pearl pin at her throat serving to fasten the ribbons of her bonnet, Was the only jewelry she wore. The couple were welcomed on board by practically the same party of friends who witnessed their marriage in the Mayor’s office Friday and who were present at the dinner given by Henry Clews at Delmonico’s in the even- ing. Leonard W. Jerome, who may legiti- mately claim some sort of relationship with the Duke, by reason of his daughter having married Lord Randolph Churchill, Marlbor- ough’s younger brother, was there, and the two men were engaged in conversation until the gailing of the vessel. The Duchess of Marlborough was immediately joined by Mrs. Eugene Oruger, her particular friend and confidante, and Mrs. Nicholas Fish, AND THEY WERE GONE, At 10:35 o’clock precisely, after the ordinary warnings had been rung and sbouted through the vessel, the gang planks were drawn in, andthe Aurania began to move away from the pier.

On being asked to say exactiv what the reason was for the celebration of the civil ceremony before the religious one, he repiied immediately: AN EXPLANATION FROM MARLBOROUGH. ‘*soth my wife and myself are Episcopalians and it was our intention to have been married in church by an Episcopallan olergyman. In making arrangements, however, for the cere- mony I discovered very much to my amaze- ment that there is in this country a distinct canon of the charch forbidding a minister to perform a marriage in which one of the contracting parties isa divorcee. This is not so in England, no matter what may be said on the subject, and there was no reason in the world why the marriage should not have been celebrated on the side if we had had that it should have The present — ar law governing such matters was enacted during the Premiership of Lord Palmerston, and while it is perfectly true that some of THE ULTRA-CHURCH PEOPLE did all they could to secure the introduction of a clause in the law prohibiting a man or woman, from whom a divorce had been obtained from remarrying, it is equally true that no success attended their efforts. Lord Palmerston strenuously opposed road the addition of any such clause on the “ound that such action was simply putting “emium on vice. Any one who “ up the English law on will find that po such prohibition he English law will be found to be + stated it. It is true that there 7 rs of the English Church who de- cf nt the State has no jurisdiction over what they shall do,and simply and solely on behalf of the church refuse to selemnize such e but this isa matter entirely paver withthem. There are on the other nand, clergymen of a more independent character who do not make any such objec- tions, anu such marriages performed by them are entirely valid. ‘*PAILING OF PUBLIC CEREMONY, therefore, in church here,the ceremony in the 2 office was arranged in consequence, n order to givetothe marriage the import anceand dignity with which I wanted it should be regarded in England. The religious cére- mony atthe house which followed the civil ceremony was perfoimed for obviously per- sonal reasons.’ COOL AS A CUCUMBER. Pitcher, the Absconding Providence Bank Teller, Taking Matters Easy. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcu. MONTREAL, June 30.—The prompt arrest of Charles A. Pitcher, the absconding teller of the Providence (R. I.) Bank, has created no little excitement in the populous boodle colony here. When Detective Kellert of this city informed him at the St. Lawrence Hall Hotel late on Tuesday evening, where he had secured elegant apartments, that the authori- ties of Montreal objected to his bringing stolen money here, ang placed him under arrest, it was discovered that he was on the point of sailing for Liverpool. The story he told the detective was to the effeat that the only motive he had for relieving the bank of its funds was to vary his career, as it was very monotonous to live an exempl life in consequence of the burden of an invali wife whom he has lett behind, and who is suffering from an incuraople iliness, He told Detective Kellert thet the idea of making off with the bank’s firm hold upon his be- came a kind second nature to him. It was only the question of how to commit the theft and get clear of the United States laws that puzzied him. When he atood up before Magistrate Dandurand.. to answer to the charge of bringing stolen money into Canada he was cool and unembarrassed. He is a dapper, middle- aged man, well dressed and of refined appear- ance. itis doubtful whether he can be held, as the only money that has thus far been found on his person cannot be identified as stolen property.

The Buffalo News, which supported Mr. CLEVELAND four years ago, refuses todo sonow, and says: Mr. CLEVELAND is not the man he was four years ago. Then che was an honest, simple-minded man, with no apparent purpose but to serve „the people and make himself an hon- ‘*‘ored name.“ Weare not prepared to say that Mr. ULEVELAND is less honest now than he wasin 1884. Doubtless he has learned something, and may have honestly changed some of the views or deferred as impracticable for the present some of the intentions he was formerly supposed to entertain. But numerous as the disappointed office- seekers and spolls-brokers in Missouri are supposed to be, we are constrained to ad- mit that they are far outnumbered by the disappointed people who supported Mr. CLEVELAND for no other reason but their faith in his resolution to elevate our civil service and purify our politics by elimi- nating the elements of bossism and spoils traffic from both. Never before has Missouri or any party dominant within her borders been pros- trate at the feet of a bossism more ag- gressive and, in its patronage traffic, more defiant of decent public opinion than that which Senator VrEsT is appar- ently commissioned by Mr. CLEVELAND to exercise over the Democratic party and the State of Missouri. It is a bossism which ordains the defeat at the polls of every Democratic nomina~ tion made by the free choice of Demo- cratic voters without first obtaining the consent of the boss Senator. It is a boss- ism which not only threatens, but openly dares to hurl against such nominees of Mr. CLEVELAND’S party at the ballot-box the whole influence and strength of Mr. CLEVELAND’s Administration, as repre- sented by his Federal appointees in this State. t is a bossism which keeps rail- road lobbyists and the paid attorneys of JAY GOULD at the head of Missouri’s Democratic organization, and with their aid bullies, terrorizes and tries to defeat every candidate whom it cannot reduce to abject submission, from Governor and Supreme Judge down to Sheriff, Clerk, or County Attorney. The brutal machinery of this bossism is now at work in every municipality of Missouri. How it has degraded the Fed- eral service, made traffic of the appoint- ing power, made a mockery of the Presi- dent’s civil service promises, and shamed all public spirit, pride and manhood out of Missouri Democracy, is seen in the sub- mission to the appointment of LANCASTER, and to the trade by which a Federal Judge- ship was obtained for PHILLips the other day on condition that the resigning Judge’s Republican relatives were to be provided for. If Mr. CLEVELAND had run as the up- holder of this sort of bossism, this sort of Kd Butler and Dick Laneaster Democracy, he never would have beaten BLarIne. Besides the millions of honest Democrats who believed him incapable of winking at such gross abuse of his patronage, he owed his election to thousands of Repub- licans and Independents who put faith in his reform promises. He need not fear that LANCASTER and VEST and Ep BUTLER will give the electoral vote of Missouri to HaRrmon if he They have tried to defeat other Democrats at the ballot-box and failed. They have tried to bully the press and the Democratic Congressmen of Mis- souri into silence with 150,000-dollar libel suits, and Mr. CLEVELAND knows all about the brand a respectable jury put upon them. He can no longer plead the baby act of ignorance and misplaced con- fidence in Senator Vest. He must either accept the verdict of that jury, and re- duke Vest’s bossism by ‘‘flipping’’ Lan- CASTER out, or henceforth stand identified with their Dark Lantern methods and be known asthe avowed supporter of their odious domination over the Democracy of Missouri. — —_ — e — AMONG the other Org 1 — whe were manipulating the Republican Con- vention at Chicago is Delegate Joun I.

Harrison has inspired his ad- mirers to a dill- gent effort in his ' » behalf, and it ie already clearly manifested that no stone will be unturned that will assist in bringing the result they most desire. In consequence of this, the Democracy is also awakened to the importance of the campaign, which is already opened so far as this State is concerned, and they, too, have their eyes and ears open to every incident that will adda point in their favor. The latter party’s headquarters have already been opened, and Chairman Jewett, who has always been recognized as a ‘‘stmp- er“ of ability, has declared that his atten- tion will be devoted exclusively to the work ofthe committee instead of speechmaking, believing that more can be accomplished for the good of the party by the former means than by any other. On Monday next, Chair- man Huston of the Republican Committee will locate at the Denison House headquarters thus indicating that the ball will be put in motion early and be kept rolling until Novem- ber. Clubs, those wielders of a potent influence in political parades, are being formed in every voting precinct of Indianapolis and this justi fies the conclusion that organize will be a ory utilized for the furtherance of each party’s purpose. It will indeed be an extraordinarily independent citizety who Withstanus the ap- peal to identify bimeelf with one or the other of parties IN THIS FEATURE OF THE CAMPAIGN, Everybody is to be pressed inte service, the Indiana battlefield be mg already admitted as promising the most exciting year in its political history. Gen. Harrison, for the first time since the eventful day of his nomination, found sufficient leisure to-day to write a few letters in reply to some he hed received congratulating him on his success. The mail that comes to him continues to increase, and it would require the services of a half dozen secretaries to answer cach one separately. Two gentlemen from the agricultural district of Northern Illinois came over on an excur sion over the Indiana, Danville & Western Ratiroad, and the first thir ; sought the Gen- eral’s house. There they told how they had polled the train as to its political complexion, finding 201 Democrats and 204 Republicans, The General has appoint- ed Paul Floyd, a bright Nttle colored boy, his page and the little fellow attends to his duties as harnioniously as an usher at the White House. The Marquette Club of Chicago, of which Gen. Harrison was recently elected an honorary member, and before which be delivered what may be considered the open- ing speéoh of tbe campaign of 1888, is repre- sented in the city to-day in the persons of its President, George V. Langlin; its Vice-Presi- dent, Hubert D. Crocker; its Tréasurer, Will Sheldon, Golbert and Elwyn B. Goule. They presented a set of resolutions to him this afternoon. The resolutions recite that within the walls of the Marquette Club and at its board was fired the first gun in Chicago of that memorable con- test which has culminated in the nomination of its most honored member, Gen. Benjamin Harrison of Indiana, to fill. the highest office in tho gift of any people; and then they proceed to GIVE THE GENERAL TAFFY. We feel a body guard interest in Gen. Har- rison, said President Langlin. It is our intention to reproduce in whole or part the speech he delivered before us and to make use of it during the campaign. It attracted wide attention upon delivery, and it will doubtless become 4 political cam- paign literature of the period The (oe tte Club is an influential organt- zation in Chicago politics. No candidate nor office-holder may become a member. This is a cardinal principle which is enforced. The membership fs held down to 100 active and ef- fective men. The members are young men of standing in business and the professions. Their representati es to- day were entertained at some length by Gen. Harrison. They will remain in the city over Sunday. Gen. Lew Wallace is in the city to- day. When a reporter asked him, as he sat watching the curling cigar smoke, whether he would accept second place on the Republican State ticket, for the good of the pony this is what he said: He quietly slid himself into an upright sitting — ape in the big chair, placed his hands rmly on the arms and looked squarely at the reporter with unwavering eye. With meas- ured weras and emphatic pronuneiation he said: Under no circumstances would I ac- cept second place.

As it stands, she said, it really means that woman should be allowed to vote, but the authors of it did not intend that it should have that meaning.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 30,—There is a romantic story told of the Harrison boys, one of whom has just deen nominated for the Presidency by the Republicans. H. C. Ram- sey, the well-kifown real estate man, was talking to an interested group in the Nelson building this morning, and asserted, to begin with, that Ben Harrison had the presidential bee in his bonnet when he was a child. continued he, 1 bors the greater — of the time. Scott Harrison, by the way, ives here in Kansas City. Then there is Car- ter, not of Chicago, but of Tennessee. Ben is the eldest and Erwin comes next. Scott stud- ied law and would have made a brilliant law- yer, buthe drifted away from the profession and is now in the real estate business. I remember when Scott left home. Why, Ben was 80 proud of him and gave him the neatest kind ofa lecture in my présence. He begged him to keep the honor of the family untarnished. He pointed with 5 to the record left by father and grand- ther, and hoped that Scott would become as noble and great. Scott has always thought Ben somewhat unfriendly to him, but Ben, in Mv opinion, was always friendliest to Scott when he was apparently harshest in his strictures.’’ But the romance!“ queried the Post-Dts- PATCH Man. Oh, ves; I did start to tell you a romance. It is odd rather than remantic. Carter was on Gen. Rousseau’s staff in Tennessee, and toward the close of the strife met a fascinating and brilliant widow. She was as rioble in heart as in appearance and Carter fell head over heels in lové with her. Well, he married her. Then they went up to the old Harrison homestead accompanied by a bright girl child by Mrs. Carter Marrison’s first husband. Soott was a mere boy atthe time, but he gave his whole heart to the Ifttle step niece. In fact, Mrs. Scott Harrison, of whom you have probabl heard, ts the daughter of Mrs. Carter Harrison by her first husband. That’s odd, isn’t it. ell, maybe it isa romance after all. Blaine to Open the Campaign. By Telegraph to the Post-DmsraTcu. PORTLAND, Me., June 30.—It is understood that the first great Republican rally of the campaign will be held here, when Mr. Blaine will open the State and national campaign at the same time. Delegates from all the local Republican organizations will meet Blaine on his arrival, and from the time he enters Maine until he reaches Augusta he will be received by the local clubs and pol iticians, and will, it is expected, speak very briefly from the platform of his car to those who will assemble to do bim honor. Mr. Blaine wiil be ready for the hard work ofthe campaign. The great State meeting here will be followed by otuer meetings at central points. After making a tour of Maine he willthen go to otber States. Republicans who have always been known as Blaine men say he will be the central figure of the national campaign. They say that following the lead of Blaine the Republicans will make the greatest fight they ever made. Blame will strike the keynote of the national campaign,’’ said the prominent mem ber of the party who gave the above information. It is also true that the Blaine men all say he is to go back to Washington as United States Senator. There is a report given as such, and nothing more, that Gen. Harrison is to meet Blaine in New York and go with him to Maine.

Congressman Wilson of the Ways and Means Committee, who is a col- lege professor and one of the best read men in the House, will contribute a monograph on the histery of the eountry, with direct reference to the undertakings and accomplishments of the Democratic party.

A Decision of Interest to Property Owners Rendered by Judce Slover at Kansas City —The Christian Church at Winfleld, Kan., Prohibited From Using an Organ During Divine Worship. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPatcnu. KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 30, OW comes a decision of the utmost im- portance to property owners aud real es- tate dealers. It was delivered by Judge lover this morning in the Oireuit Court in the case of Heury A. Wimbush and others against Geo. A. Law and others. The decision termin- ates the question of the status of married 2 women in contracts for real estate. It is a by-word among the legal profession of this State that ‘‘no one knows what are the rights of married women. Their status must be de- termined by the decisions of the judges. Millions of dollars’ worth of real es- tate have been Cohveyed in this city and surrounding towns by married women, whose power to make contracts of this kind has been called in donbt by this decision of Judge Slover's, as there has been no ruling heréto- fore on this subject. This decision will be taken as the law, unless reversed by the Su- preme Court. The question wat brought up before the court in the following manner: Henry A. Wimbush and others bired George A. Law and others as agents to procure a pur- chaser for a number of lots in the Asburne addition for $20,000, Law to receive a commis- sion for hisagenty. Law found a purchaser in the person of Mrs. Ellen O’Brien, and she was accepted by Wimbush. After a series of negotiations the sale fell through and Wimbush refused to pay Law his com- missions. . Law brought suit against Wimbush and obtained judgment, claiming, under a recent decision of Judge Gill, that having found a purchaser Who was ready and was willing to purehase it was all that eould be expeoted of him and he was entitled to his commissions. On a motion for a new trial Wimbush’s attorney brought up the vexed uestion of the rights of married women. © maintained that w would be entitled to his commission if the purchaser was a man or a single woman, but as she was a married woman the weight ot the authorities was against it. Both parties filed voluminous briefs on the question, most of the authorities being from other States, the law hot being Well settied on the question in Missouri. The substance of Judge Slovet’s opinion 1s as follows: The evidence shows that the purchaser furnished by the agent to the seller was a married woman. There is évidente tending to show that Wimbush accépted the purchaser presented by the agent, but there is no evidence that at that time, or at any other time, Wimbush knew that the pur- chaser Was a married woman. It is doubtful even if he knew atthe time of the accept- ance of the purehase that he was not bound legally of financially to carry out the contract. Mrs. O’Brien was a married woman at the time Wimbush aceepted her as the pur- chaser of the property, and as the original contract could not be enforced against her for specific pertormanee or for damages, I do not see how the agent is entitied to his commis- sions. Motion for a new trial is overruled.’’ Many of the lawyers olaim that the decision will not stand the testofthe Supreme Court, but acknowledge that it is a good decision, as it definitely establishes the status of a married woman’s limitation if real estate contracts for some time to come, a Tt Instrumental Music Barred. By Telegraph to the PostT-DISPATCH. TOPEKA, Kan., June 30. — The Supreme Court to-day decided the ease brought up by Jacob T. Hackney of Winfield against the trustees of the Christian Chureh of that city to enjoin them from placing on organ in that church to be used in. the services. Mr. Hackney claimed that the sole discipline accepted for the worship of God by the Christian Chureh isfound inthe New Testament and that an organ had never been permitted in the chureh until a few weeks ago when a new pastor em ployed by the congregation placed one in the ¢huth and notwithstanding the protests of hiseongregation opened sery- ice with instrumental music. Haekney claimed that he could not engage in Worship where an organ is used, delieving it to be a sin. The Court says that the organ cannot be used and holds: Where some of the officers and members of an independent church forei- bly introduce into the church building and public worship therein an instrument of mu- sic and form of wershi contrary to the established principles and laws of the ehureh, and it 16 done against the protest of a majority of of ficers appointed to control affairs of congte- gations, their action is an infringement of the rh ts of the members and such a petversion of ehureh property from the purposes for which it was intended a eoourt of equity Will restrain upon the application of the mem» ders.

Indeed, only one or two scraps between men at all prominent are on the schedule and one of those will be over within twenty-four hours, while the other will be settled within amecouple of weeks. The latter with Havlin and Burns as principals is bound to be a hot one, and if all goes well Iwill be at the ring- side when the bantams tow the scratch. Who do I think will win? Well! That is a question more easily asked than answered. Barns is a clever youth; more clever in fact than Haviin. Heis also credited with being a hard hitter. Havlin is fairly clever, hits hard and can stand more punishment than any little man I ever saw. The ‘*Spider’’ Was way and by far cleverer than Jack, and the ‘‘Spider’’ can hit hard, too, but he couldn’t finish Jack Havlin. Jack Farrell was cleverer than Havlin and a harder hitter, too, but Havlin 1 him just as the ‘*Spider’’ did. don’t know enough about Burns to say that he can’t whip — but I will say this, that I like avlin's chances better than I do those of the Irish youth, and this notwithstanding the fact that he was picked up and brought here by John L.

The latter should, by this time, know a good little man when he . him, but he would have to pick several and them out on better men than Jack Williame before I would be convinced that Havlin was not bis age * ABOUT LEN The manner in which. _ Cardiff was quieted — eee proves that Pat is his master hthe gloves.

The Removal of the Patient to the Steamer Swatara Safely Made—Features of the Sea Voyage—Mr. Fullier’s Nomination to Be Confirmed — Henry Gerte on the Tariff Bill—The Debt Reduction—Pre- ecedings in Congress. By Télegraph to the POST-DISPATON. AS HINGTON, une 380. — Not- withstanding the statements made by Gen. Sheri- dan’s physicians that, owing to the dampness of the weather and the storm at séa, his removal would not take place to-day, or, perhaps, for some days, car- riages were driven to the house this morn- = ing and a squad of police were drawn up in front of the house, and at II o’clock the General was taken to the Steamer Swatara. The statements of the physicians and others as to the time of depart- ure were thought to be intentionally mislead- ing in order to avoidacrowd. There were no more persons in the street at the time than usual. A detail of mounted police escorted the ambulance in order to protect the patient from intrusive curiosity if it should be neces- sary. There was no one to witness the de- parture except a few colored workmen and the people of the neighborhood. Gen. Sheri- dan was borne out very tenderly upon a couch and placed in the ambulance that was in wait- ing. Every precaution had been taken for his comfort during the long ride to the wharf, not far from two miles. The horses attached to the ambulance were carefully selected for thé purpose and drew the vehicle without a jar, Two of the physicians and the male nurse ac- companied him in the ambulance. As he was borhe along the street, the bystanders caught a glimpse of his face and hands. One of them said: ‘‘He was very pale and thin. The hands fell by his side as if he had no strength.’’ SEVERAL OF GEN. SHERIDAN’S AIDS followed the ambulance in carriages, while some drove. rapidly on to have everything in readiness on the Swatara. The last to leave the house Was Mrs. Sheridan who, with two Sisters of charity and one of the staff, drove rapidly away in the family carriage. Servants with the baggage followed. Mrs. Sheridan looked very pale and anxious. The fact that the re- moval has been madewhile the weather is damp, and while there are reports of rough weather at sea, is interpreted by médical men not connected with the case to indicate that the removal was urgently necessary, and that almost the only hope is in the change. Gen. Sheridan bore the tfip to the Swatara very well. Dr. O'Reilly said he was less fatigued than was expetted. Bight ma- rines carried the cot upon which he had rested inthe ambulance to the swinging cot in the cabin. A photographer, whose instrument was set to take a photograph as Gen. Sheridan was carried to the ship, Was not successful, as an officer suddenly put his hat over the lens and destroyed the view. A little before the vés- sel Was ready to make way the sun shone through the mist and clouds, and there were indications of warmer weather. The General was carried into the Cap- tain’s cabin, which ie situated on the spar deck and put in his swingitig cot. The trip from the house to the vessel was made in about forty-five minutes,the distance being about threé miles. THE DEPARTURE. At 1 o'clock Capt. MeGowan took the bridge and gave the necessary orders for getting under way and at 1:15 o'clock, as the tide was at its highest point, the hawsers were east loose andthe ship swupg out of her dock amid the waving of hats from the Captain and Drs. O'Reilly and Yatrow, who stood upon the poop deck. The ship was assisted out into the Potomae by the tug Res- cue, when she was cast loose and proceeded slowly down the river on her Way to Nonquitt. Col. Blunt said that the vessel n anchor down the river to-night and in the morning sail down to Fortress Monroe, when a atop would be made for fresh milk and ice. She will then go out beyond the capes, if the sea is Smooth, and anchor agaih in the Delaware »reakwater, and thence would Staten Island, to Long Island Buzzard Bay and to Nonquitt, Mass. the voyage Would ptobably occupy several days, and he thought the sea air would do the General a great deal of good. The party Which acconipanied Gen. Sheridan consisted of Drs. O“ Reilly and Yarrow, Mrs. Sheridan, Col. Sheridan and two nurses. The last bulletin reads: 12:30 p. m. —At 10:55 this morning Gen. Sheridan was moved from his house, arriving on board the Swatara about an hour later. The whole transfer was atcomplished without the slightest obstacie or delay. He rested well last night, bore the removal ex- cellently, and is now in at least as good con- dition as before leaving his home. Through the kindness and forethought of Capt. Me- Gowan every possible arrangement for his safety and comtort has been made. O'REILLY, MaTTHEWS, YaRROW. Henry George oh the Tariff Bill. By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. WAsHINGTON, D. O., June 30.~Henty George Wwasan interesting figure at the Capitol to- day. In discussing the question of tariff re- form ahd the prospects of the Mills bill in Congress, Mr. George said to a Post-Disraton correspondent: ‘‘Of course this bill will never become alaw. It willpass the House but it will be killed in the Senate. It will have served its purpose, nevertheless, and no one should mourn its fate. It is only a step in in the right direction and itis better for the cause that it should not pass. History shows that aconcession from the opposition has always weakened a cause and in great fights compromises are always to be feared. Had the slave- owners made Asubstantlal con- cession to the Abolitionists, slavery might never have been Abolishea. But this Mills bill is only a precursor of a measure far more radical! which will be introduced hereafter and which will oy become a law. The Senate may defeat this bill but wheh the people have been heard from their r pehee ves in the UP er House will be enlightened anew and will cast their votes In accordance with un mistakabie instructions from their constitu- e nte. The great issue of tariff reform has neyer been presented to the pere before. The politicians, the shifters Ana wmers have taken good care of that.

Yesterday elections were held in Crawford and Oaldwell Counties, where interest in the gubernatoriat contest centered. Orawford County selected delegates for the State Oon- vention. In Caldwell County township elec- tions were held to select delegates to a County Convention to be held July 7, when delegates to the State Nominating Convention at Jeffer- son City will be elected. All the gubernatorial candidates were on the scene of action yesterday. Uongressman Glover has been in Crawford County for two days consulting with his friends. Up to date twenty-four counties have held conventions or primary elections, but the re- sult is not definitely known by any means, as the claims of the four candidates are confus- ingly conflicting. Gov. Moréhotise captured Audrain County's 6 votes, 1in Warren, 4in Montgomery, 1 in Lincoln, 8 in Pulaski and 1 in Stone. These are conceded by the Francis men, though some of the delegates are said to be Glover men. Claiborne is credited with one of the Lincoln County votes. The Francis claim is as fotows: Linn, 8 delegates; Howard, d, instructed; Boone, 7, instructed; Pike, 7, instrueted; Lincoln, 2 Morgan, 2; Moniteau, 8; Gasconade, 1, in- structe Benton, 8, selected by primary election; Miller, 2; Cape Girardeau, 4; Wright, 9; Oregon, 2; Barry, 3; Bollinger, 2; Worth, 2; making a total of 46. This claim is knocked into a cocked hat by Congtessman Glover’s claim. Bollinger elect- ed two delegates, one of whom, Eli Lutes of Lutesvillé, is claimed by both Francis and Glover. He was recognized as a Glover man, butthe Franeis faction in the county claim that he will be a Franéis man in the conven- tion. The result in Worth County was a surprise to Gov. Morchouse's friends. Worth adjoins Nodaway, where Gov. More- house lives,on the east. It was supposed that he would carry the county without question. Neither Glover nor Olaiborne devoted mach time to the fightthefe. Franeis, however, put in some time in that section of the State and has listed the two delegates of Worth County on his roll of supporters. It is impossible to tell the respective strength of the@arious candidates at present owing to the contradictory Claims. Should the candidates make a show down it would probably put some of the delegates in unde- sirable positions. Young Men's Republican Club. The Young Men's Republican League met last evening at Central Turner Hall. Presi- dent Samuel F. Myerson presided. Mr. Wm. Zachritz read the report of the committee on a constitution and ga Mr. Roth objected to one article of the consti- tution which fixed the age at whieh young men could join the club at 18 years. He thought it ought to be changed 80 as to read *; years instead of 18. Mr. Hendricks did not favor the. suggested change, for the reason that it would bar ous zones men who would be of age before the Présidential élection. Mr. Matt G. Reynolds also spoke against the proposed revision, He believed in taking in recruits at as early an age as was 10 and teach them to become fighters fot the party before they were voters. The motion to change the required age for in- itiation from 18 to UM was then put and lost. On motion of Mr. Zachrita the initiation fee was reduced from §1 to 60 cefits, and with the exception of this one amendment, the corstitution and oy ene Ae adopted as read.

Members of the General Executive Committee of the clubs with whom he had spoken expressed their ability to make the Democraty work hard for even a small majority, and informed him that the committée would send to Missouri all the Campaign literature desired free of charge.

They Will Try te Force the Manufacturers te Agree With the Amalgamated Asso- _ Clation of Steel and Iron-Workers on the Adoption of a Scale—Building a Fence ' Around the Carnegie Milis—Cincinnati Mills Also to Shat Down—The Situation at Reading—The Move ef the Bosses in Demanding an Arbitrary Reduction. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsSPaTCH. Pesce 2. Pa., June 80-—The great strike of iron and steel-work- ers in all the mills in the country controlled by the Amalgamated Association began to- day. To-night it is re- ported the great works ge of Andrew Carnegie and his partners at Homestead are being sur- rounded by a high fence, and leaders are speculating as to the probability of an at- tempt to non-unionize the mill, which was successfully accomplished at Carnegie’s big steel-rail millat Braddock on the opposite side of the river. It is also reported that Dilworth, Porter & Co. to-day posted a notice notifying all their men that they were discharged and informing them that when the mill resumes they must make individual applications for employment. There is no doubt of an attempt to non-unionize this mill. Another report gives hope to the strikers. It is that Oliver Bros. & Phillips, who employ several thousand men, will sign the scale two weeks hence. Thereport is generally believed for the sole reason that this firm has always been the first to sign the scale. At the headquarters of the Amalgamated Association this evening much comfort was drawn from the fact that four firms had signed the scale. They are the Apollo (Fa.) Iron and Steel Co., the Akron (O.) Co., the Mingo Junction (O.) Iron and Steel Co., and the Cleveland Hardware Co. On the other hand the manufacturers claim that their posi- tion has not been weakened. Mr. A. F. Keat- ing, Chairman of the Western Iron Associa- tion of manufacturers has received assurance that there will be no big break. He received a very encouraging telegram to-day from Ironton, O. It is as follows: We will notsignthe Amalgamated Asso- ciation scale, even if Pittsburg does. Manu- facturerse offer too much. e will get our work done at much less than Pittsburg manu- facturers have offered. [Signed] ‘*KEELLY NAM Iron Co., ‘*BELLEFONTE IRON Co.“ Mr. Keating, when asked about the signing of the scale by four firms, replied: It is not a break among the manufacturers. The teile- gram from Ironton shows how = Sy few and united we are. Why,the Apollo Works ls asteel plant. What that firm does is no concern of ours. They never belonged to our association, and we did not calculate upon their refusing to sign. The Junction Iron Co. is a Bessemer steel works, so of course it does not weaken the Manufacturers’ Association by their signing the scale. In fact, not only will the firms that belong to the Western Associa- tion refuse to sign the scale, but a number of non-union irou mills will shut down on July 1, simply because the iron business is so de- pressed that they can afford to run no longer and pay their present rate of wages. ‘*Do you think there is any prospect of an- other conference?’’ No; the conferences are over. The manu- facturers will not ask for one. They have given their ultimatum. They can do no more. It the Amalgamated people want to accept our scale they can do so. It is said that if the Eastern firms the scale’ they are expected ship their products to the Pittsburg market. A manufacturer stated thatif the lockout continued for only three weeks this would be the case, as there is but — stock ahead by the Pittsburg firms. The Kastern manufacturers are now taking ad- vantage of cheap freight rates, and are shipping their products to Western points. Intense interest is manifested throughout the country about the bi lockout. Business men are receiving tele- grams from every section asking N the indications point to a prolonged shut- down of the mills. A well-posted banker said: ‘*The talk abouta prolengued strike is all hosh. Iam perfectly willing to give a cash guaranty that any local mill that gets sufficient orders to justify it in doing so will sign the scale and resume operations as soon as stock is taken and necessary re- pairs made. Iam not talking wildly, but from personal knowledge of the weer | among owners and operators of the chief iron con- cernsinthecity. Pittsburg does not propose to loosen her grip on her supremacy in the iron trade, even ifthe mills have to run fora year with very little or no prefit.’’ Chicago Mills Shut Down. By Telegravh to the POsT-DISPATCH. OnicaGco, III., June 30.—The lockout of iron-workers, begun at Pitsburg, has also spread to Chicago. The works of the North Chicago Rolling Mill Co, at Bayview were shut down to-day, and it is announced that every fron foundry in this vicinity will de closed next week. The reason for this is not quite clear at first sight, for the men are anx- ious to work, and there is nothing in the con- dition oftheiron market to — the pro- posed reduction of wagés. There 1s a story current among the working- which has the high author- of Charles Wheeler of the Labor Enquirer and Secretary of the United Labor party that the reduction of wages was or- dered by the Republican National Committee asa piece of campaign strategy. The idea isto throw iron workers all over the coun- try out of employment and so arousea bit- ter resentment against any reduction of the tariff. Mr. Wheeler is a member of the International Iron-workers’ Union, in which he has been quite prominent. Hesays: ‘‘In the score of years that I have been connected with the union I have always seen iron-work- ers’ wages amicably fixed according to a scale agreed upon both parties. The only ex- ception was followed at once bya strike and the early surrender of the manufacturers. The scale haa worked satisfactorily to both sides. This year, for no reason in the worid appar- ently, the manufacturers throw away the cale and demand an arbitrary reduction n wages of 10 per cent, no matter what the vrice of iron may be. I know that the manu- facturers are well ahead with their stocks, 80 that they are prepared for a long lockout if necessary. lam very well convinced, and so are the rest of the labor men here that the whole thing isa plot against the Mills bill, the Democrats and any reduction of of the tariff. A circular was issued by the Republicans some time since calling on the manufacturers to take steps to protect themselves. More recently the manufacturers have issued circulars to their employes calling upon them to form protection ciubs and vote ainst a reduction of the tariff. The logic of all this is that when the workmen form protection clubs and pledge themselves to vote the Republican ticket the mills will start up. Until then the workmen can starve.’’ ity Ironworkers Out at Cleveland. By Telegraph to the Post-Dmsraton.

The 3,000 employes o the Reading Iropeworksfhave been threatening to strike ever since the reduction went into effect. The meeting was held in Exceisior Hall, and no outsiders were admitted. The proceedings were of short dura- tion. A resolution of secrecy having been adopted, those who were present are not disposed to give any information. Enough has been gleaned, however, to warrant the statement that there will be no strike until after the effect of the movement at Pitts- burg has been ascertained. The result of a conference with the managers was reported and assurances were given that the old scale of wages will be restored as soon as the course of trade warrants it. Usually at tnie season of the year there ie a suspension of of several weeks for repairs, but none has yet been ordered on account of every department being full of orders. Cincinnati Mills to Shut Down. By Telegraph to the Post-DisraTcu. CINCINNATI, O., June 30.—On Monday the rolling-mills of Cincinnati and vicinity will not be in operation. The reason is that the bosses and the men have failed to agree on a scale of wages for next year. For years it has been customary for a committee of men and a committee of the manufacturers to meet in June and arrange a schedule of wages for the year, commencing on July 4. he time for agreeing on a scale is up and no scale is made. Manufacturers want a reduction of 10 per cent, which the men refuse to accept. There are 2,500 skilled men in the Amalgamated Association in the Cincinnati District, aside trom the laborers in the various mills. They willall quit. As the manufac- turers have taken advantage of the low mar- ket to manufacture large stocks, it is not probable that there will be any agreemépt be- tween the parties for a long time. The mills hereabout are Mitchell, Tranter & Oo.’s and the Licking Rolling Mill in Covington, the Newport Iron & Steel Co., L. M. Day- ton's of Newport and the Globe Rolling Mill Oo. of Cincinnati. Designed to Affect the Tariff. By Telegranvh to the POsT-DISPATCH. New York, June 30.—In this city§he shut- down of the iron mills west of the Alle- ghenies has not created much excitement among the foundrymen, although this is their busy season, especially for building purposes. If the shut-down continues for any length of time its effect, of course, will be felt through- out the entire country and prices of iron and steel will be enhanced. The workingmen generally claim that the decision of the manufacturers to bring about a conflict was caused by a desire to affect the tariff legislation and to create a stronger protectionist feeling among the workmen interested and through them the workmen in other trades throughout the country. Those who talk in that strain also say that manufacturers in other protected in- dustries will follow the lrön men's example for the same reason by cutting off their bread and butter. It is hoped that those with Dem- ocratic tendencies will not be induced to vote as their employers desire. eis was done in numberless instances in 1884. The manufacturers who have made mil- lions of dollars under the present high tax system will sacrifice some of their riches rather than see their chances of further ag- grandizement legislated out of existence. That is the secret of the great iron trouble,’’ said a well-informed laborer to-day. POLICE BLACKMAIL, Serious Charges Preferred Against High Police Officials. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCH. NEw YorK, June 30.—A number of whole- sale liquor dealers have united for the pur- pose of collecting evidence to present to Mayor Hewitt. They claim that certain po- lice officials have used their influence tocom- pe! retail dealers to buy a particular brand of whisky sold by a house in this city. One of the best known police captains in the city is alleged to have gone about with the 4212 this company to various retail dealers to ‘*persuade’’ them to buy the whisky, and the agent in question is said to be frequently accompanied in his canvassing trips by a policeman in uniform. The matter was brought to the attention of the WoRLD sev- eral weeks ago, but at that time it was impos- sible to corroborate the statement. Since then agents of different wholesale houses have com- pared notes, and now their firms are about to take action for mutual protection. The matter was again broughtto the attention of the WORLD to-day by one of the largest liquor houses in this city.. The reporter was intro- duced to the firm’s agent, who gave the names of several retail dealers who had formerly been his customers, but who claimed to be obliged through 2 influence to use the brand of whisky in question. Said the ent: These saloon-keepers will not speak of the matter except in the strictest confi- dence, because they fear the results which would follow ifthey should make an expos- ure. There istalkamong them, however, of joining hands againsttheir persecutors. The . have them right under their thumbs. here are excise indictments against many of them, which the police have it in the power to push to trial at any time. Any police captain, if he sees fit, can run 4 saloon-keeper's business, and get him into trouble. They can’t do that withthe whole- sale dealars, however, andthe latter are de- termined that their customers shall not be blackmailed from them. member of another wholesale firm said: ‘‘We propose to act as a body. We have already collected a quantity of evidence which would fiil two columns of the WorRLD. This isto be prepared in a circular addressed to Mayor Hewitt, and will de circu- lated Monday among all prominent houses in the trade for their signatures. The circular will probably reach Mayor Hewitt about Tuesday. We are bound to do this to protect ourselves. We have no ill-feeling against the dealer in question or his agents, and we do not like to antagonize the police, but we are obliged in justice to ourselves to put a stop to this matters I presume there are, comparatively speaking, only a few members of the force engaged in this semi-blackmail. We hope to be ableto single them out from the white sheep and have discredit fallonly where dis- credit is due. TOO SICK, eer 33 * Fred May Suffered From the Cue .

THE FORMATION OF A POWERFUL POLITI- CAL ORGANIZATION LAST NIGHT. Gen. D. M. Frost Tells the Caucus Plainly That the Object of the Organization Is to Defeat the Political Aspirations of the ' Mayor—Clubs to Be Formed in Every Ward—A Second Anti-braacis Caucus, the evening,about 7 o’clock last night, a largely attended emocratic caucus was held at No. 821 Pine street, at which a plan for the form- ation of a powerful political organiza- tion was decided on. The citizens arrived in twos and threes and harried up-stairs to the méeting place on the second floor without delay. Shortly after 8 o’clock Gen. D. u. Frost moved forward to a table at one side of the room and rapped the meeting to order. He said that the meeting was of gentlemen who were opposed to the candidacy of David R. Francis for Governor, and did not wish, as far as he was concerned, to allow any person to remain under a misap- prehension if they were present with any other understanding concerning the objects of the gathering. The audience seemed per- fectly prepared for this candor, and showed that they had come there under- standing that no methods were to be considered for the advancement of the Mayor’s political prospects. With this under- standing the meeting proceeded to business. Mr. John Wulff of the Second Ward was ap- pointed secretary of the meeting, which was the second held for the purpose of organizing for the coming campaign. Mr. John J. Rich, who was one of a committee uf five composed of John Lee, Wm. Frudenau, Wm. Baggott, J. J.Rich and Maurice McKeag, reported that the committee was not prepared to report a list of permanent officers. He asked for further time and was granted until next week to re- port the list of officers. . R. Taylor the meeting on the organization of the city for the campaign. It was agreed that the central organization will consist of at least three delegates from each ward, and that clubs will be formed in each ward to bring together the opposition to the Mayor’s election. Dan Meyer of the Sixth Ward said the oppo- sition to the Mayor was very strong in his part of the city, and that he expected to forma strong club in his ward. The First Ward was not represented at the meeting. After agreeing upon the general plan of organization, the caucus adjourned to meet again next week, when permanent or- ganization will be effected. ANOTHER CAUCUS. While this meeting was in session William Swift, Tom Morris, Judge E. A. Noonan and some of the well-known opponents of His Honor held a still more secret caucus, Kt which plans for finally disposing of the Mayor’s aspirations were discussed. Col. Swift, whois implacably opposed to Mayor Francis ,and has been ever since he took charge of the office at the City Hall, has recently had everal gatherings at his residence which — no good to the Mayor’s political future. Several of the influential opponents of the Mayor were seen last night in the vicinity of Col. Swift’s house, giving grounds for the belief that the anti-Francis forces were at work last night at more than one point in the city. 2 member ot the Swift caucus said that it was understood that the Mayor’s plan was to disregard the custom and the recommendation of the State Convention of two years ago giving each candidate a representative at the oll at the primary election. The caucus was nformed that the scheme is to have the Francis men on the Central Committee appoint the judges and clerks named by the ayor’s managers, who will see that the re- turns are satisfactory to his Honor. The cal- culation is that if this scheme is carried out the Mayor will capture 3 of the twenty- sight wards, but an effort will be made to de- feat this plan. then addressed FATHER CONWAY.

THE RAILROADS. to Inaugurate a Reduction of Rates—Cut Under Chicago, By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcnH. ST. PAUL, Minn., June 30.—The new rates announced by the Soo line is a reduction of 381 cents on first-class freight and the rates are all rail, precluding the possibility of the Chi- cago lines meeting the figures. This move- ment by the Soo line in placing rates from the Eastern seaboard to the Northwest at such a low figure is of the utmost importance to St. Paul and Minneapolis. It is carrying its ides on which the construction of the 800 line was boomed in the Northwest as forming an Rast- ern connection independent of Chi . Several freight representatives of he different routes were asked to-day what effect the Soo’s action would have, and there seemed to be but one opinion, that it was the best thing that ever happened to the twin cities. It oe renews the long standing issue between Chicago and the Northwest, Wich the difference that the Northwest has the cali this time. Heretofore in the fight for low through rates from the East, the St. Paul and Duluth summer route, via the Lakes, has been the only lever worked against Chi- cago interests and this was at the disad- vantage of being open only five or six months inthe year. The 800 line being an all-rail rail route can maintain its portion the year around. Another factor soon to enter on the situation is the Duluth, South Shore & At- lantic, which Is expected to join hands with the Soo in giving the Northwest what it has 80 long been fighting for, reasonable rates from the East independent of Chicago inter- ests. The lake and rail routes between the East and Northwest have done nothing yet in consequence of the Soo's reduction, but will probably put in rates with a similar differen- tial to the one of lake and rail rates east of Chicago. The situation will probably lead to a conference of the trunk lines and renew the old question of prorating to the Northwest. Reduced Rate on Dressed Beef. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCR. Kansas City, Mo., June 30.—As a result of the rate war between the Chicago Grand Trunk and the Consolidated Trunk lines, the Wabash to-day reduced its rates on dressed beef to New York 56 per 100 pounds. This cut is a deep one, and fills the Kansas City packers with Joy: It is now pessible to com- pete directly with Chicago in the New York market. The rate from Chicago is 30% cents, but cattle can be procured so much cheaper at this point that it makes it possible, with the existing rate, for local packers to underseil their Chicago rivals in the metropolis. Reducing Rates in Minnesota. By Telegraph to the Posr-Dtsraron. Sr. Paul, Minn., June 80.—On July Ii the managers of all the railroads of Minnesota are to appear before the Railroad Commissioners of the State and show cause why the freight rates should not be reduced.

As he said himself ina pleasant conversation I had with him on the occasion of my first visit to his house, he knows less about his owu family than any- body else could possibly know. The only cabin of 1940 was even in that year declared to be a myth. All he says is that he was born in the old homestead at North Bend, 0., and that the main portion of the building was «a long structure that had deen covered with weatherboards; he doesn’t know the room in which he was born, but he does remember vividly that the room in which he slept as a boy had a closet in it which revealed the ends of logs when its door was opened. If he wasn ' born in a log cabin, he began his studies in a log school-house at some dis- tance down the river from North Bend. Af Raf es A. MRS. BENJAMIN HARRISON. Later in lite he went to Farmer’s College, eight miles from Oincinnati, where he had for a classmate Murat Halstead, editor of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. His education was completed in Miami University at Oxford,O. Here he graduated at 18. He had for classmates in the University Prof. David Swing, now of Chicago; Wm. P. Fish- relics of the hero of the Tippecanoe battlefieid and of the Thames are an oll painting and an etching of him displayed modestly, one in the hallway and the other over the mantel in the Generals library. In a drawer of the large walnut book-case in the library are two faded, time-yellowed sheets of paper that date back to the year 1840.

At a revival, which was conducted by a Rev. Dr. Clayball, who was attempting to convertthe sinners of Oxford, the young men of the University found their hearts touched, andthey not only embraced Presbyterianism, but they vowed to one an- other that they would all study for the minis- try. Only two of them did so, however, these two being Swing and Brookes. Gen. Harrison has been a stout Presbyterian ever since, is an elder in Rev. L. M. Haines’ little larger than a page of the Posr-DiIS- PATOH, also has cuts in the border and gives the story of Gen. Wm. H. Harrison’s life. The cuts show him fighting on the battle- field, dividing his blanket with a wounded soldier, inviting the hungry to sip at his table, and so on. They portray him as the brave, generous and hy- mane man that he was. A small sheet has the hymn sung at the hero’s funeral printed on it, and there are in the drawer a dozen or more of the old Tip and Ty’’ badges anda log cabin song book. Gen. Harrison’s son- in-law sought these out at my request. They are not kept for display, and the General places no unusul value upon them.

He had studied law with Judge Bellamy Storer of Cincinnati, and was vre- pared to tackle anvthing from a cow case to a corporation suit. The first man he ran against when he landed in the town, in 1854, was Wm. Waliace, brother of Gen. Lew Wallace. Mr. Wallace was a candidate for County Clerk, and as lawsuits were scarce and fees were small in those days he was making the liveliest canvas he knew how tosecure his election. Mr. Wallace met young Harrison in the street and told him that if he was looking for some- thing to do he could go up tothe Wallace office and take care of Waliace’s clients dur- ing the campaign. There were a few short- pursed litigants who had entrusted their end of several disputes to Mr. Wallace and young Harrison took them in hand and did so well that the copartnership thus informally begun lasted through seven years without any further understand- ing between the parties. Mr. Wallace said they had always had a struggle for bread, and there never wus any let up on the part of the wolfatthe door, but they got along happily and successfully and never quarrelled, and they might have been partners still, had not the rebellion called them away from the cares of business to the contentions of war. Harrison married immediately after he got his start in law. There was a bright-eyed little girl named Scott who at- tended the Female College at Oxford, O. Her father was professor of chemistry in the Mi- ami University, and Harrison made her ac- quaintance in the usual way that boys and girls at school come to know each other. This was a case of love at sight—so one of the General’s old classmates told me—and when graduation day threatened to separate them the boy promised bis sweatheart that he was only going out to look the world in the eye and measure the depta of the struggle ahead of him, and when this was done and he saw his way clear to home and shelter and a share of the world’s happiness he would turn his face again to Oxford and appear there to claim the girl-love for his bride. Prof. Scott saw that Harrison was a bright young fellow and offered no op- position to the match. They were married, — „ Their Firet Home in Indianapolis. and the young lawyer took bis wife to Indian- apolis to live. EARLY STRUGGLES. The first house they occupied was the one- story frame building still standing at the cor- ner of Vermont and Alabama streets. There were three rooms in it and a high, olose board fence shut off aview of the yard from the front. These rooms the c@uplé furnished in a manner befitting their comparative poverty. They had nothing. The. Bridegroom’s only inheritance had been a small lot in the upper part of Cincinnati, which his aunt, Mrs. Gen. Finley, had left him, and that had been sold for $800. Little, if any, of this money was left when he assumed the responsibilities of a hus- bana. The furniture in the Vermont street house was therefore plain and scant. A half- dozen cups and saucers, some pewter spoons and @n-bladed knives constituted their table- ware. Oarpets they had not, nor cushioned chairs, but they made the three rooms as cheerful and comfortable as willing hands and lots of love and a little money could make them. They started in with a debt of $200 hanging over them, and as evidence of the value they placed upon small sums of money the story is told that the General rode twenty miles on horseback to try a lawsuit in order to save 34 out of a $5 fee — the first, too, which he received in his new home. After returning home from his tussles with the law the young husband wrestied with cord-wood in the back yard, and went so far in the administration of household affairs as to kindle the fire jn the morning and wash the dishes after supper. His first child, Russell B. Harrison, who was appointed Government Assayer for Montana by President R. B. Hayes and who was later engaged in cattle-raising, and now keeps a stationary store in Helena, was Russell is now born in this house. William Henry Harrison. more than 80 years of age and is married. He with his wife is visiting the General, but ex- pects to return to Montana in a few days. The only other child born of the union is the daughter Mamie, whose age is about 26 years. She was married three years ago quietly and withogt show to Mr. J. Robert Mokee, a wholesale shoe dealer of Indianapolis, whose father is an elder of the First Presbyterian Church and is considered one of the wealthiest men of this oelty, though his estate does not exceed over $250,000. The son of Mrs. MeKee, little Ben, isthe mas- cot already referred to. Gen. Harrison was very much attached to his daughter and is 60 still. They adore each other—so friends of the family eay—and when Mamie was married the General made it a condition of the match that she and ber husband, while they lived in Indianapolis, should have no other home than his roof. They all live together at 674 North Delaware street. It isalarge twelve- room house in two stories anda mansard. There is nothing uncommon.in the exterior of this home and nothing vagant inside. THE - is of plain brick with t stone trimmings. Broad Stone steps lead up totbe double doors drives to his office, and the top-buggy in which they ride, and which is their only vehicle. The lawn has a frontage of about one hundredand fifty feet along Delaware street. Hundreds of visitors have called to congratulate the General during the past few days. He has received the most of them him- self at the front door, which is always open, ushering them into the reception-room and young gentleman undertook to write a rhap- sody about the late Mathew Arnold, The writer of the essay read extract after e- tract to show what a wonderful piece of intel- lect Mr. Arnold was the poseessor of, and he was getting along very nively, enlightening nobody, but seemingly satisfying him, when Gen. Harrison jumped up after hearing one of the Arnold extracts read and said: 4, 2 5 a bith N — : 7 9 , . Sy Yjf "by . > , me US =, 7 7 1 4 N,, LEN a * MRS. J.

The furnishing of these rooms is rich in the matter of material, but there is no flare of colors to offend the eye. A grayish blue prevails inthe carpets, which have small figures. The chairs and settees are upholstered in raw silk to match the car- pet, andshow long usage. On the mantel of the reception are several handsome pieces of china. Over the mantel is a water - color com- position representing something like spring, which isone of the examples of Mrs. Har- rison’s skill with the brush.

Harrison is a regular attendant at this club and has been for some time engaged in the preparation of a paper which he is to read to the club. The manner in which he has gone about preparing himself for the task is a fine indication of the thoroughness with which he attacks all his work. The subject is the foreign relations of this country during the war.

Testimony of Mrs. Har- rison’s artistic nature abounds in all the swpartments. She has painted a dinner set. She has obtained some pretty little effects in colors on placques. She has figured the faces of numerous pieces of satin. Indeed on all bands are evidences that Mrs. Harrison paints, and paints well enough to be modestly proud of the buds and roses and dirds and foliage which are the product of her brush. The daughter, Mrs. McKee, does notpaint. She has no particular accomplishment. Bef she was married she used to play a littid on the piano, but since baby Ben came into world the plano box has remained soundless, and there has been no music in the Harriso household except the mamma! an ‘‘dadda’’ and “wah-wah-wah’’ and occasional wild scalp-raising midnight yelp of the petted and prized infant. Thefact of the matter is that Indianapolis is not so very much of a musical town. The people like ‘*‘ Yankee Doodle“ and St. Patrick’saDay’’ and Die Wacht am Rhein, but they don’t oare for grand-opera and will not pretend to like it simply becagse it is stylish to do so.

It is pessibie that the campaign will interrupt. his plans and cause him to lay aside his diplomatic researches for awhile, but when the club hears that paper, which it will some time, it will be a good one. It is his thoroughess as well as his versa- tility, which has made the General so success- fulalawyer. He never goes into court, his associates at the bar say, until he has grasped his case completely.

For three years he kept her uestered, so far as the reporters and interviewers were concerned, except when she was acting, The reason was simpie enough. She was comparatively safe when she was using any other language than ber owu. Mr. Hill’s side of this story of man- ent has been told on the stand.

She is more like her brother Hugh than her father, mother or brother George, but you can see that it is not altogether training that has made her such a sweet resourceful girl. All the family are school teachers. The fa- ther, Samuel Newton Brooks, is the Principal of the three detached school buildings where the youth of Hyde are educated. His superior is the Government Education Department head, so although he is called Principal his osition is identical with thatof a Superin- endent of Schools in an American city. His duties are somewhat alfferent, as the school systems are different. He has necessarily the supervision of the work of his teachers.

He also teaches the highest classes in one or two of the prin- cipal branches when it is pee toy for him to find time forsuch work, Under Mr. Brooks in the Hyde schools are his wife, his son George and his daughter Annie. His wife teaches in the highest grade. Annie is but 17 years oid.

Four Million, Five Million and Six Million Dollars an Acre the Ordinary Selling Price for Ground in the Neighborhood of the Stock Exchange—What the Land for Big Downtown Office Buildings in New York Has Cost. Special Correspondence of the Post-DISPATCH. 7 EW YORK, June 27.— Manhattan Island has seen some wonderful ad- vances in the value of real estate situated with- in its boundaries. The story of advances in the value of property in some of the up-town districts within the past fitteen or twenty years read at times like fairy tales, and even the narratives of Chaun- cey Depew respecting the fashion in which real estate quotations have been hoisted in such places as Duluth and Kansas City within a comparatively recent time, and which he told with much wit, humor end picturesque ex- pression after his return from the West last tall, soarcely exceed our own experiences in amazing characteristics. But, greatly as New York up-town property has increased in value, it doea not begin to compare with the enor- mous advances which real estate in Wall street and along lower Broadway has recorded even since the beginning of the present decade. Prices have been ob- tained for land inthe region named greater without any doubt than have ever been real- ized in any partof the civilized world. The figures seem to be almost incredible. In April, 1882, a small plot of ground on the southwest corner of Wall and Broad streets, containing only 508 square feet, about one-fifth the size of an ordinary city lot, was sold and the purchaser paid for it $168,000. This was at the rate of {540.70 a square foot, nearly $1,000, - o a city lot or $14,300,000 for an acre. It is true this was rather an exceptional case. The piece of land was on the corner ot the street and was bought by the owner of the adjoiaing property simply te square his plot, and as to a certain extent he had to have the land, the man who held it naturally put the screws on. But a great deal of ground has been sold in the immediate neighborhood of this plot within the last five years for figures very nearly approximating the amazing figures just named. In May, 1883, the property on the corner of Wali and New streets, also the southwest corner, was purchased for $240,000. This plot contains 1,525 square feet, but little more than half the size of a city lot, and at the price named it brought 3157. 57 a square foot. The 8t. Nicholas Bank stands on it now, and Congressman 8. V. White’s Wall street offices, where he manufactures oorners in Lacka- wanna and sells privileges, are on the second floor. When the Astors determined to put up the present Astor building, atthe head of New street, they purchased the three lots 8, 10 and 12 Wall street, and, as prices now go, secured them very reasonably. The en- tire area, consisting of 8,404 square feet, was secured for $800 ,000, something less than $100 per square foot. No. 12 Wall street was paid for, to be exact, at the rate of $111.31 per square foot, and the other two lots at $84.18 for the same measurement. The Equitable Life In- surance Co., when they started out to buy the property on Pine street and on Broad- way withthe idea of making the enormous extensions which have since been completed, probably met with the most expensive experiences which any one down that way hashad. Forthe Jand chey needed they paid nearly $1,500,000. Tiey got the northeast corner of Broadway and Pine street and Nos. 4, 6, 8 and 10 Pine street to the east. They paid $155.75 a square foot for the corner, $762,500 for that single plot. The remainder of the $1, 500,000 was paid for the land along Pine street. D. O. Mills was a great deal more fortunate, so far as prices go, when he secured the property on which to put up the enormous structure known now through the length and breadth of the land as the Mills Building. He paid, all told, $1,462,- 500, and for this money not only got ali the land along Broad street from the Drexel Building to tne corner of Exchange 4 „but also secured liberal frontages on Exchange place and Wall street, The numbers are li, 13, 15, 17 and 19 Broad street, 85 Wall street, and 556 Exchange place. Of all the dif: ferent lots he paid highest for 11 Broad street. This he 3 Maron 11, 1881, paid $200,000 for it, and as it was a full city lot,con- taining 2,486 fect, be got it at the rate of $30. 44 per square foot. For the remainder of the property along Broad street and on Exchange place from $7240 $73 asquare foot was * Outside of the million dollars which Astor paid for the large plot of ground at the southeast corner of Broadway and Exchange place in January, 1883, the list given here in- cludes pretty me AB all the remarkable sales of property in the neighborhood of Wall street within the last five years, In buying the various pieces of * rty at the prices named the property was course bought with the improvements on them, but these improvements were in every case old bulldings which had to be torn down and the material entering into them sold to —— architectural junk-shops these contract - atronize, so that the money paid was actically paid for the land, but the fact that * — 4 vements were there of course in- creas price of the land, and the de- struction of the p 1 very naturally in- creased the cost e the buildings which were put up on the site of the old ones. To put up the Astor Building in Wall street some really ood houses were torn down. When Cyrus leld put up the Washington Bullding the old Washin n Hotel had to eve way, and al- though this was not bringing in a ve ren it was exceedingly interesting from an historical point of view. It is understood that the next — eidown-town office building, b the wa we rented om See yee ot groun — Nee — 4 the be agg n Bulld- 8 * 3 0 woe fa "ena > “ “4 for — met There are o * 3 — buildings on it besides the old-fashioned residence which stands shout the middle of the W 7 „ „% „%: 444% large 8. Nobby suits for bays [ere tne goods, & m and Ho on which it now Bove peg h dl geri to associate w Bington ng and the the south and the Welles ullamg and the — — Oil Building across the way. „ though, that de 1 2 smaliness of tne houses now on the und the rental is a very handsome one. It is impossible to estimate the value of the old improvements which have been swept away in the process of recovering, 89 to speak, the lower portion of the city, but within the last ten years $100,000,000 has un- doubtedly been spent in new improvement. One reason for the pr hts pn ra oe. preciation in the value of real estate street and lower Broadway, and the 2—. why it exceeds the ap reciation in values in the upper — = thec 1. is that after quota- tions reac igh tide in 18738 Wall street valuse ote be ee a — a number ot years in the face of what 1 to be a very threaten- ing situation. The region was covered with four and five story buildings, and the 881 bility of getting any more rental out of them than was got at that time did not seem to be very brilliant. As the possibility of increased dividends was so 9 = „ ot᷑ the ove retused advance. he people who * — 5 room would not pay steep prices, and then climb stairs which were equally steep or even steeper. The com- letion of the elevated railroad in 1878-79 id mot affect the situation a particle. The question was not one of getting to Wall street—it was a question of getting accommo- dation after Wail street had been reached. The situation became even more complicated and menacing when the question was seriously ee in 1882 of removing the Stock Ex- ange to Union Square, although it is very difficult to see how this would in any way have improved the situation. But the matter was earnestly discussed and property-owvers in Wall street saw the permanent value of their investments there in jeopardy, and the man searching for favorable real estate in- vestment carefully let Wall street property alone. But with the 9 re of the pas- senger elevator the who uestion was prac- tically settled. It was demonstrated that, although there could be no expansion on the surface, Wall street could at least grow sky- ward, and to-day no thought is entertained even of a remote removal of the financial center of the city to any more northerly section. In considering the subject, said George T. Davidson, a well-known real estate law- yer, from whom most of the above data were secured, ‘‘and in accounting for the enormous values of Wall street property, it must be re- membered that the demand for accommoda- tion inthe business portions of this city is much greater than in the residential portion, for the reason thatso many thousan people who do businessin New York donot live d here. While the estimated resident population in New York proper is only 1,400,000, the army of people who do business within its borders is recruited from a vast number of surrounding towns, such as Brook- lyn, Newark, Jersey Oity and Paterson, which alone contain upward of 1, 100, 000 people, and much smaller laces, as Hoboken, Bergen Point, Staten land, the Oranges, Nyack, Long Island City Ton- kers, New Rochelle and other towns in the outiying Westchester districts. Indeed, the total population living within a radius of thirty miles of City Hall. How ones a num ber ot people there are who come to New York inthe morning todo business and return to homes outside of New dg; in the evening it is impossible to say, but if the exact figures could be e even those who consider themselves to be fa- miliar with the subject. Certain it is, how- ever that the business area of New York is taxed to its utmost and there is bound to be further advances in real estate values about Wall street that will seem almost fabulous. The following caiculation by an expert, made with a view of arriving at the value of a plece of property on Broadway, is ex- tremely interesting. The property contains 30, 000 square feet: rom information derived from reliable sources it is learned that offices in fireproof buildings rated first-class, and in the building adjoining this . being rented at an average of from $1 to $4 per superficial square foot. Inthis instance (although ona leading ee a we will estimate the tee ge at only $l per superficial square foot. e will also allow for courts, halls, stairways, etc., 40 per cent of the area. A bul ding ten stories high erected on this plot would therefore contain 60 per eent of 300, 000 superficial square*feet, or 180,000 feet available for renting purposes, which at $1 per square foot would yield an income of $180,000, making no reference to the basement or ‘cel- lar and estimating the price of tne large and fine rooms on the main floor and second floor (for the use of banks and large corporations) at only the price ofthe upper stories. The extra price from the latter on the first and sec- ond stories, say 36,000 feet, would be at least $1.50 per square foot, equal to the sum of $54, - 000, and we will not reckon upon any income from the cellar or basement. Thus the total renting from the building above referred to would be about $234,000. The annual outlay to be incurred on a builld- ing such us above referred to, is estimated as follows: al gous up on $15,000 Coal, engineer, elevator, janitor d other incidentals will not excee Making total outlays about Hence the net income (conservative esti- mate) of $194,000, which capitalized at 5 per cent would represent a sum epee to $8,880,000. Deduct from this cost of erect ng the building, which we will estimate at the liberal figure of $1,500,000, and it will leaye the precise value of the ground at $2,300,000.

PORTLAND, Ore,, June 30.— The two Chinese girls, Chin King and Chan Fan Her, who ar- rived here on the bark Kitty from Hong Kong, and whom the Collectors of Customs refused to allow to land because they had no cer- tificate, sued ont writs of habeas corpus in the United States Circuit Court, claiming to be citizens of the United States and that they were unlawfully deprived of their liberty by Oapt. Laird of the Kitty. The elder girl is 20 years old and is accompanied by her husband, a prominent young Chinese merchant vod this city, to whom she waa married peer’ before leaving Hong Kong the ther of the girls testified that he nad lived twenty-fine years inthis country, and was married in San Francisco. The oldest girl was born there twenty years ago, and the youngest in this city ten years ago. About seven years ago both girls went to China with their mother, astheir father said, to stay as long as they pleased. Several witnesses gave testimony which wentto establish the state- ment of the father. District Attorney Me- Arthur did not attempt to dispute the fact that the girls were born citizens of the United States, but claimed that by golng to China to stay they had severed their relations with this country and became subjects of the Em- eror of China. Judge Deady held that the act of the girls baving been born citizens of the United States had been established by the testimony and that by going to China to sta as long as — A yg: they had not forfeite their citizen The Court expressed a doubt as to 2 a child could be deprived of the boon of citizenship by any act of its parents.

Stacks of Letters Handied by Well-Known Officials and Merchants—The Mail fer a Month in a General Passenger Agent’s Office—The Enormous Number of Letters Received by a Wholesale House—A Heavy Postage Stamp Bill—How Correspond- ence Is Taken Care of in the Banks—Some of the Letter Writers of St. Louis. NK may be said to prac- tically rule the world, but plain writing fluid plays a big part in run- ning it. An ative bus- iness and an ardent lover resemble each other in one respect at least, that most of their time is taken up read- ing and writing letters. To paraphrase an old is writing letters for the other half to read and answer, and one of the most prosperous lines ot business in this country is monopolized by Uncle Sam in the mail department. The business hours of some men are almost taken up with correspon- dence. The mail in the old days was an event, and letters were regarded as rarities some- what, but withthe advent of the fast mall train, the type-writer, the frequent deliveries and perfected carrier system, the greater part of business is transacted through the Post- office. There is probably no set of men who do more correspondence than railway officials. The general public look on the life of a ral - way Official as a dream of ease and their chief duties to ride over the road in palace cars and attend meetings where the labor is mostly of a gastronomic nature. The correspondence alone ofa railroad officialin an important office would stagger the average man of busi- ness and would be incredible to the people in the country where the receipt of a letter is a rare thing. While the railroad official is traveling hastily to settle some vexed question of rates or to see that his road is getting its share of the business, work is accumulating in his office, and when he re- turns he generally finds astack of letters on his desk awaiting consideration and answers. They are probably only the remnants of busi- ness which he could not attend to while away. They are questions, complaints, notices and a host of other subjects which he must attend to at once. H. C. TOWNSEND, the General Passenger Agent of the Missouri Pacific Railway, probably handles as much mail as any other railroad man in the country and perhaps as much personally as any man. The passenger department is prolific of cor- respondence and in an immense system such as the Missouri Pacific it reaches top water mark. Mr. Townsend has to glance roughly over all of the correspondence in his office, and much of it he must attend to per- sonaliy, suggesting the replies or the treat- ment of the subject, whatever it may be. There are few times during a day in Which a pile of correspondence is not found on his desk demanding attention and keeping his assistants and stenographers busy under his suggestions and orders. The mere handling, both mechanical and mental, of the corre- spondence alone, involves great labor. The amount attended to in Mr. Townsend’s departmentin a month will give an idea of the extent of the work devolving on him and his assistants. Take the month of April as an example, and this was, 8 y speak- ing, a light month. The figures are eye- openers. The letters received in the general correspondenee from the Post-office maul amounted to 8,774 and from the railway mail 28,680, making a grand total of 32,404 letters to be read, considered and answered if neces- sary. The letters written during the month were, in the general . 1 500; in the rate-rooin, n the advertising- room, 811, 3 in the ticket stock room, 95, making altogether the total number of letters ‘written 4, The actual time aud mechanical labor expended in receiving, assorting, reading, writing, seal- ing aud forwarding such a number of letters is in itself immense, and to this must be added the mental labor involved in considering them aud in writing the letters sent out. MORE INTERESTING FIGURES. The telegrams forwarded in April were: In general correspondence, 730; in the note room, 780; in the advertising room, 64; and in the ticket stock room, 70, a total of 1,644 telegrams sent out. In addition to these items 1,046 boxes and packages were received and forwarded in the advertising room. In the ticket stock-room 1,001 requisi- tions were filed, 408 reports were made to the Auditor, 1,968 way bills and invoices were made out, 273,609 tickets were issued and re- turned, 228 excursion and other orders were issued, 8,963 rates and divisions were made ont, 4,285 tariffs and rate sheets were sent out, 670 wrappers and envelopes were addressed, and 7,500 ticket receipts were checked, A NEAT DAILY AVERAGE. These figures seem almost incredible to one not familiar with such work, and yet this was only s moderate month. Perhaps it will give a better idea of the correspondence to the average for the mo Counting t¥dénty- five working days, there was an average of 1,296 letters received, 178 letters written and sixty- five telegrams sent away during the month. And yet Mr. Townsend manages to smile now and then, and if he is haunted by letters no one knows It. While this is perhaps as high as the corre- spondence of any one office will run, Gen- eral Manager 8. H. H. Clark, Vice- President Newman, Traffic Manager 0. it. Murray of the same road, General — Aen os France Chandler, General Manager ys of the Wa- bash Western, and, in fact, all of the general railroad officers have heavy correspondence to attend to.

Now it uires two men and two boys several hours only to open and assort the mail and one man is kept busy nearly all day distributing and checking off the letters.

She first ‘married one Henry Ettling, and after nine of trying experience they were divorced. 6 had borne him five children, two of whom ere stililiving. She decided eight years ago give Philip Hammerschmidt a trial as a life r. It was a change or husbands but no provement.

DOSWELL. THE VIRGINIA STOCK FARMER. A Rich Sporting Man Whe Bets Lightly on His Horses and Whose Wife Never gat a Race—H. C. Parsons, the Famous Biaine Shouter—Sam Tilden’s Grand Nephew—A By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcu. known Virginiastock farmer, whose trim figure is familiar to New York men about town, and who its at present an honored guest of Capt. Bu- ly’’ VUonner’s cara- vansary. Gen. Dos- j well is a member of — Af 7 anold Virginia fam- * oo * ily, and lives in charming style on his estate at Bullfleld, near Hanover Junction. He is a tall, slender, brown-bearded man, wnose manners and conversation are as quiet as those of the horsemen among whom he is often seen, are demonstrative. Nothing in his mien or lan- guage would indicate him as the owner of the largest stock farm in the Old Dominion. The Doswell farm produces some famous flyers, but their owner never bets more than $5 or $10 at a time on them. His wife has never even seen a horse race. On the Doswell place is a handsome new church, builtfor the blacks and poorer whites, with funds furnished by Mrs. Doswell and by Mr. Doswell’s friends among the sportsmen ot New York. The silver communion service was the gift of Capt. Conner. A BLAINE SHOUTER. A pale, thin man, whose foot lagged, even on the sm@oth corridors of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, to-day, was H. C. Parsons of Virginia, the famous Blaine shouter, who lives at Runs and owns the natural bridge over which George Washington threw a silver dollar. Mr. Parsons has been ill, in bed, for five months. He announces to his friends that he is ‘‘out of -| politics,’’ but he admires Mr. Blaine as much as ever. Mr. Parsons, it is said, will henceforth devote his untiring energies to the development of the Old Dominion stone marvel, from the summit of which it has been for years his daring dream to have James G. Blaine deliver a Fourth of July oration. There is, in the zenith of the arch, fashioned by drip and geologic formation, the graven effigy of an eagle, quite visible to the naked eye. Mr. Parsons proposes, it is said, to have his magnetic orator make this eagle scream. SAM TILDEN’S GRAND-NEPHEW. George H. Tilden of New Lebanon, thé un- assuming young farmer who is contesting the will of his great-uncle of Greystone, came down from the flowing countryside yes- terday and walked e * uround the lobby of the Bartholdi. r. Tilden is a pleasant-looking man of medium height and weight, 8 years old, probably, and rejoicing in a well-trimmed blonde beard, which is be- coming to him. The briefs of his lawyers have just been handed up to the unfortunate judge who is to take up a good part of his summer vacation in ig g out the al points and consultin e authorities of the ‘*learned counsel’’—all ‘‘counsel,’’ by a legal fiction, are ‘‘learned’’—who are trying to show that Samuel J.Tilden either didn’t know what he was about or ought to have known, like * ‘Poor old Robinson Crusoe“ better than to ‘‘do 80. A TYPICAL MOYTANIAN, He L. Vanyon isa big-bearded and big- hatted Montanian from the Deer Lodge Val- ley, who says be has often met out there Mr. Russell B. Harrison, the young man who used to be United States Assayer at Helena, and who is now assisting his father to run the cor- respondence of a presidential nominee. Mr. Vanyon is a Missourian, who went to the Northwest just after the war, when the exodus to Montana began. We are mostly from the South out there, said he yesterday, ‘‘and mostly Dem- ocrats. But as long as a man is a man we don’t much care for his politios or na- tionality in Montana. Rassell Harrison isa stocky, cool-blooded, brown-bearded young fellow, who got his Federal office from Gar- field and worked intosilyer-mining and cattle- raising until now he has a good stake. He used to go in for society“ a good deal. id gloves and give the Helena girls a treat; but he prospered in business and hasa big ranch now and a number of business in- terests. „Mr. Ben Harrison, the one that’s been nomi- nated for the Presidency by the Republicans, came out to Helena to see his son, Russell, in the winter of 1882-83. I saw him and was introduced to him, buthe was very quiet and didn’t seem to care to have much to say. He was spoken of as ‘the grand- son of President Harrison,’ but Montana eople don’t care much for a man’s ancestors. The story is told in Deer Lod that one of the first missionary preachers in that region, after the gold fever of 59, came into camp one evening while the men were smoking after supper, and asked them if they ‘knéw the Son of God?’ The spokesman of the camp, who was a little deaf, gotup and came forward and replied: ‘‘Come, in, stranger, and have arest; you looked tirea. There ain’t no use axin’ for your friend by his pap’sname. We don’t go much on famil trees out here, but if we can help youto fin him we will.’’ EUGPNE HIGGINS. Aesmall, unobtrusive man, whose gray hair and mustache were his most striking features and who seemed to shrink from notoriety as much as he was once said to glory in it, wrote ‘*Eugene Higgins on the St. James register yesterday. e was the once notorions ap- pointment clerk, who became by his uncon- cealed scorn of civil service reform, a na- tional issue, and whose claims on Senator Gorman for past services came near straining the relations between the President and the Maryland Senator. Mr. Higgins is now a pri vate citizen, in business in Baltimore, and says he has had enough of politics. He has a keen eye and a way about him that looks as if he could take ‘‘good care of Higgins’’ when he chose. Strauss photos lead the rest! Strauss’ photos are the best! INVESTED TOO MUCH MONEY. The Real Estate Firm of J. W. Tousley & Son Forced to Assign. By Tetegraph to the Posr-Disraron. MIXNEPOLIS, Minn., June 30.—J. W. Tousley & Son, real estate dealers, have been ferced to assign. Mr. Tousley came to Minneapolis eight years ago from Omaha, Nob., and went into the real estate business. During his resi- dence here he has handled a great deal of real estate, and has bulit sixty-seven tenement houses. He was a hard worker and was re- — asa very careful business man. His h allure he attributes to the fact that e put much money to unload this year. Much of the property is mo ed, and these mortgages coming due found him without any ready money to meet them. A edule of the liabilities and assets has not yet been made, and will not be ready until next week, but an estimate made r. Tousley places 1 aad ee 6 oS at be- tween and s thousand dollars.

The executive committee for the Mlumina- tion of the streets during the fall festivities have requested the foliowing gentlemen to as- sist them in the collection of a fund for this purpose. It is the desire of the committee that the contributions be made prior to the lst of August, so that contracts may be made for the work as early as September 1, this giving the committee ample time to erect new designs and features for the fall illumination. The Treasurer of the fund, Mr. John 8. Moffitt, has sent to each contributor of last ear a circular requesting them to duplicate heir last year’s subscription. 8 amounting to 7, 000 have been received thus far, and if the merchants will fill out the circulars as requested it will lighten the labors of she, — 2 very much in taking up the contributions. The sum needed for the work this fall is estimated at $25,000and from the way the matter is being received by the merchants there is no doubt that this amount will be contributed, as all seem to be very much in- terested. The amount of $7,000 subscribed within three days is most creditable to the citizens and those in charge of the collection of the fund and speak in the most unmistakable terms o the popularity of the famous street illumina- tions of St. Louis, which has never been ualled in any other city of the world, The illumination of the coming fall will not only be more extensive than any its prede- cessors, but will also comprise numerous new features, and will unquestionably attract a larger concourse than has ever before assembled on a similar occasion. The gener- osity of the contributors already applied to, has assured those in charge that the full sum required will easily be obtained, and the itizens may look forward to an Ulumination of unexampled grandeur. 1 — Seo es The following gentlemen ave - pointed to solicit subscriptions in the districts annexed to their names: Lumber Mens’ Associations—Dan Holmes.

— — Sr. LOUIS, SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1888. — — —1 AND IT ASSERTS ITSELF STRONGLY IN THE LATEST FASHIONABLE MILLINERY. 3 Does Not Mix Its Colors, but the Kiegantes of Paris Like a Little Yellow | With Their Green—Dinner Dresses and Tea Gowns of the Most Recent Desig ns— A Fashionable Woman's Deshabille— Pretty Ball Dresses for Young Girls— Tollettes for the Races. Oscar Wilde's Woman's World. HE tint of the year is green; no undecided green that melts into biue, but the emerald and watercress tint that is really becoming. It asserts itself mostly in millinery, and green i tulle bonnets trimmed with broad green vel- vet, with water-lilies at the top, are to be seen at most fashionable gatherings. Time was when ladies did not wear hats in town; now young girls hardly sport anything else, and some married women only 0 put op a bonnet when he the occasion absolutely demands it. Doubt- ‘ht less itis on this account that so many are \ stringless, and so approach nearly to the hat. They ure shaped somewhat like a round tent, the flowers forming a point on thetop of the head, and, whetherit be loops of velvet or ribbon, they all start from this apex. In the hand these bonnets look extremely small; ot so on the head, where their adornments give them height. Floral bonnets are being pre- pared for Ascot and other peeps ot Vanity Fair. Some of them are entirely composed of Small blooms clustered together on a wire shape, with an upstanding bouquet at the \side; but newer and more original are bon- Vnets composed of one single flower, such as a gigantic rose or a peony, made thus. Resting on the head are large velvet pink leaves set in ‘acircular form, and above them silk leaves (smaller, and of a slightly lighter tone), ssowned with a tuft of rosebuds. There is thing bizarre in this headgear; on the con- ary, it is eminently becoming. Another of e same class of bonnet is composed of moss- green velvet leaves, surmounted by a bunch Jot lilac and most natural mignonette. These styles of head-gear accord well with the floral parasols, surmounted by a rose as arge as an ordinary cabbage, and bordered rose- leaves made of lisse. The andwork these parasols varies greatly, om velvet ost transparent piece-lace, and they th Fier a variety of flowers, which sometimes are used in bunches as a trimming, and some- times constitute the parasol itself, the upper part forming the heart of the flower, the lower portion the petals. The idea is poctical and suited toasummer day. The size is not quite 80 large asthe parasois of last season. Eu- touteas are most used for every day wear, red more than any other tone. They have long cane ‘bandles with gold tops, and serve a doubie purpose, belng used as walking-sticks. Of { course you know a woman of fashion requires j 4“ Cane in this year of grace, 1888, quite as much as beaux ofa century back. A giance at our illustration shows how sbe uses — 2 also — —— of Pee bodice with is elongated waistcoat, introduced by M , Lewis and Allenby. ABER: Next to green, red is the favorite color. Red cotton gowns will be worn, and red bonnets. Red tulles, by a strange rversity of taste, are covered often with beeties, which in- spire an inelination to shake them off, and so tofget rid of a foreign and an undesirable ornawent. Americans cali all insects of the kind bugs, and, notwithstanding the un- leasant association, they are buying bonnets argely, with a beetie of some species used as trimming. There is a great disposition to show the hair through the headgears, which are sometimes cloven down the center from the forehead to the nape wf the neck, while others have fronts composed of detached bands of jet. Jet is the one fuyorite material, and, trimmed with mixed flowers, assimilates with most dresses. The brims of many bonnets are edged with jet ruches, or with silk pinked ruches of two tones. The strings are sometimes made of | lace, sometimes of narrow velvet, and start from the middle of the back, without being at- tached at all to the sides. The printed surahs and tolles de sole, which, r all, are a revival ofthe useful toulards, being employed for tea-gowns, and in our lilustration an easy mode of making is own.

A jabot of Mech- lin lace, a gash of black watered silk, revers of brocade on the sieeves, adorned like those of the coat with big metal buttons, complete a costume of eccentric richness. Less accentuated in style and more restfully harmonious in its tints, the second dress is of cream bengaline, striped with bands of pale Suede cloth. The piain petticoat is ged with a band of Suede cloth. The lonaise, plain at the back, is striped in front with equal bands of Suede cloth and bengaline.

A fashionable woman’s deshabille is as pict- uresque and dainty as her gala attire. Mlle. Cely, the lingere, has on view in her show- rooms in the Rue de la Paix some tasteful specimens of this less formal apparel. One is in the style of Louis XV. The redingote jacket of striped ivory satin and watered silk opens over a chemisette of ivory net, fringed and embroideredin pearls. A jabot of lace edges the two sides of the jacket, the wide sleeves, and falls in soft, undulating outline over the embroidered skirt. The necktie and wristbands are of watered ribbon, shot with the tints of mother of pearl. A pretty dressing-gown is made in the fash- ion of a Muscovite biouse. it is of transparent rose-white woolen material, worn over a slip of pink taffetas. The flat skirt falls in gathers over the hips; the front resembies a chemise russe and is crossed with three deep horizon- tal tucks, through which pink ribbon 1s in- serted, fastened on one side with tiny butter- fly bows. The long, wide sleeves are trimmed at the shoulder with stripes of pink ribbon. The flowing sash, the necktie and wristbands are of pink watered ribbon. Another ‘‘stay-at-home’’ dress, the splen- dor of which allows it to be worn at an inti- mate dinner party, may be described as a symphony in white, the notes being the va- ried stuffs of which itis composed, brightened with gleams of gold. The front and back of the skirt are of white brocade, displaying a petticoat of unbleached surah silk, veiled and draped with folds of white silk muslin em- broidered in ivory-white silk. The bodice—a square-cut jacket hemmed and embroidered in peeve a chemisette of the unbleached silk, draped with embroidered silk muslin; the half-sleeves are cut square and slashe with gauze. A wiae white watered-silk sash is knotted at the side; the bigh collar is fastened in front with a bow of white watered ribbon. : , My last description of a gown must be that of a pretty ball dress for a very young girl. It is blue as a May morning sky. The pale-azure crape skirt falls in straight, small gathers from waist to ankle; the tunic is disposed with scarcely any drapery over it, like a veil lifted on one side. The bodice, which folds a la vierge, is fastened with knots of biue watered-silk ribbon, matching the wide sash. THE POLITICAL FIELD. The plan suggested by Recorder Williams to the attorney of the Democratic City Commit- tee by which the committee will, if it accepts, have the use of all the books, lists and refer- ences of the Recorder’s office for an outlay of less than $200 is an inexpensive one. He sug- geste that as the law prohibits an expenditure from tie public money on socount of a pri- mary election the comm.ttes should agree to pay the salary for one day of two Recorder’s clerks for each ward, who shall bave exclu- sive charge of the lists at the primary election, but who shali give all the desired information to the committees, judges and clerks, con- cerning the qualifieation of any applicant to vote. To carry out the plan of copying the 52,000 names on the registration lists would in- volve an expenditure of over $1,000. oe The appronestes 1 will be a hotly contestly election. legates are to be elected to the State Judicial Convention at Spring- field and to the State Nominating Convention at Jefferson City. Ihe aht will probably be over the selection of the delegates to the con- vention which will nominate the State ticket. The opposition to Mayor Francis is bitter and will erp: be powerful in some of the wards atthe primary election. No advan- tagezwill be thrown away by either party. This is the first time the ward managers have been put to the necessity of going into a pri- mary election without the use of the books. With the registration lists the ward powers have often been able to decide the contest the night before the election, and to save some preoccupied citizens the necessity of going to the polis at all by voting for then Without the use of the books for at least a few hours before the fray the leaders will haveto go to battle uncertain us to the outcome. It is now considered positively settled that George W. Allen is out as a candidate for Lieutenant-Governur. This is understood to be amove hostile of Francis’ interests, al- though the friends of both parties explain that Allen is only out as a possible candidate. Should Francis fail to receive’ the nomination for Governor the second place on the ticket will in all probability be given to a St. Louis man. Ball and Claycomb, who are now in the field, are not proving very formid- able candidates. The feature of Mr. Allen’s candidacy that is particularly distastefy to Francis is that it puts into the field anovwer factor on which a trade might be made against Francis. Neither Glover or Claiborne seem at all disturbed by che appearance of Allen in the fleld as a candidate for second place. * * * Thos. Martin, who was a member ot the last Legislature, is spoken of for chairman of the Republican City Committee, which will shortly be selected to supplant the doubie-barreled arrangement which is guiding the party’s course in this city at present. Martin is one of the coolest-headed politicians in the com- mittee at present, and will have little dim culty in capturing the chairmanship if he runs. > * Vice-President Thos. Morris of the Hen dricks Association is opposed to Mayor Francis’ candidacy for Governor. Speakin to-day of the Mayor’s chances Mr. Morris sai Mayor Francis would not carry ten wards in the city. He says further that if given a fair deal atthe hands of the Central Committee the opposition to Francis would carry twenty of the twenty-eight wards in the city. Warren Leland, the Ch o hqtel man, pre- pared a political bill of fare last week on which the dishes were named after candidates and politicians.

The Advantages of the West as a Country for Growing Up in—A Bub-iail Genealogy as Good There asa Place in Burke’s Peerage—The Right Kind of Material Has a Better Show on the Frontier Than in the Metropolis. OR many years past, and no doubt for many more to come, the vital question with the young American, ‘‘Where canIdothe best and 0 ; soonest succeed?’’ has been and will con- | F tinue to go right on in the vital business. I I> select the following letter for replying purposes ratber than any other in my posses- sion because it is earnest, personal and perti- nent. Wm. Nye, Esq., World Office, New York City: DEAR SIR I write to ask your advice as a Western man as to the advisability of a young man of Fagtern parentage going West to grow up with the country. am at a loss what to think, as there are so many contradictory stories afloat in the various Eastern papers relative to the West, and especially as 80 many Western men who crack up the Western coun- try 28 being the place to livein are continually com- ing Kast, investing their surplus or engaging in business with Eastern conterns. It the West offers such a broad field for advancement why then do Western men such as you leave such fertile flelds and pastures new? * ax With kind regards, yours very truly, CABLE. It is true that a great many Western men come East to invest ner Surplus, * nad never gone West they would not have had any surplus to invest. W The advantages of the West for the young man consists in this, that he is there given a The Man Who Succeeded. chance to show his gait and demonstrate his merits. Nobody asks him who his grand- father was and why he came West. He is tested and indorsed or lynched, according to his merits. That is not all. He is ag good a man with a $5 suit of clothes and a bob-tail genealogy as any other man, if he be a good citizen and pans out all right. The difference between the Eust and the West is that in the West less attention is paid to forms and ex- terlors than in the East. In the West a man may be a millionaire and still be required to behave himself. In the East a millionaire can behave himself days and do ag he pleases the rest of the time. But the chief advantage to a young man who has his way to make in the world consists in this—that industry and merit are at once recognized in all new countries. The last question isa more or less personal one, and itsbows that the man who wrote it was a philosopber. In replying to it I must not forget that it isa serious and sensible in- quiry. My own case is an exceptional one. In the first place, everybody is not allowed to remain inthe West. In one way the West is democratic, in another it is exclusive and The Man Who Didn't Succeed. aristocratic. It is no sign that others will have to move East because I did. Seriously, let me say to the young men who that it they are made of the right „„ „„ durplus, Due it they mise on my part. It is experience. Many writers have shown us where to go with cap- ital to do the best, but what we want is in- formation that will help those who want to know where they can get the most enjoyment out of poverty, where a good citizen is wanted and welcomed. The main difficulty with New York atid Bos- ton boys in new countries is homesickness and disappointment because a good many in- stitutions to which they have been accustomed are not to be found. To succeed in the West a young man must become a part-of his adopted country, and loyal to it. He must not act u pon the prineiple that he is still a citizen of New York or Boston, but in good earnest begin to be necessary to the’section of country he has removed to. And, after all, there is not so great a differ- ence between the East and West. All Western men, with the exception of the Indians, were once Eastern men, and Eastern money makes the West successful. Let no young man from a large Eastern city console himself with the notion that he is conferring a favor on the West by removing to that part of the country. The fact that heisthere at all is pro f that he came thereto better his con- dition, and he cannot conceal it. He who goes West solely to teach the untutored pioneer the elements of refined civilizations will not en- dear himself to his community, for the humble pligrim who walks into a new town in the Territories and goes to work attending to his own affairs is more apt to return to the East some day in a Pullman car than the man who enters the place preceded by a silver cornet band. The West, of course, is not now what it used everywhere, andthe fromtier is pretty well narrowed down, but there is still plenty of amusement, excitement and instruction for the inquiring minds. N I havesaid seriously, what 1 haye said, be- cause this will answer a question that I have been often asked. A good citizen isan orna- ment and a success, whether he dwell within the shadow of Bunker Hill or the canons of Colorado, but he would succeed guicker and get the eyé.of the speaker sooner, perhaps, in Colorado, becanse the farther a young can get from the depressing, but brillia e- cord of his grandmother, the better off he will be. Tnis statement has nothing to do with the campaign. Another thing I have noticed in the older parts of the country, and more especially in New England, which keeps a young mga” back. In the town ot his nativity he is never consid - Henry or George, or, worse still, William's boy’’ or John's boy’’ until his teeth begin to fallout, whereas in a new field he would be called Colonel or Judge or Governor on a good salary. The West wants goog, live, self-supporting young men. Whether or not the East can spare them Ido not pretend to state. The West will always welcome the sensible young men fromthe Kast or from other countries who are equipped for a rough-and-tumbie with outrageous fortune. While I would not ane success to everybody who goes est to-day, I would certainly under like cir- cumstances go West myself, willingly and hopefully. It is no sign that the West is full because once in awhile a man who comes from there is in that condition. Neither should young men hesitate about going towards the Occident simply because a few wealthy freaks like the undersigned came Fast to bedew with their surplus the land of their Lirth.

The Fakir of Siva had as- tonished the audience very successfully until he came to the feat of making a marked dollar disuppear, This he successfully did, and then, pointing his magic wand at a seedy individual at the end of the hall, he said, impressively: That marked dollar will be found in the vest pocket of that gen- tleman.’’ There was a sensation and all ¢yes were riveted on ‘‘that gentieman,’’ who ad- vanced slowly to the front, took some coins from his vest pocket and said: Boss, here's your change. I had three 5-cent cigars out of the dollar you told me to keep in my vest pocket till you called for it.“ Then there was unother sensation, but not quite so flattering to the Fakir of Siva. ‘*LUSIS SATIS, ediste satis, atque bibiste Tempus abire tibi est. Seals Are Fond of Salmon, From the PortMnd Oregonian. The baby seal recentiy added to the free menagerie on Morrison street has seemed con- tent to bask in the sun, eat the salmon given itand whine for more. Saturday, however, it seemed to wake up tothe exigencies of life and concluded it had to hustle, so it rolled into the tank and started to catch one of the fish, andthe way the pair went round the tank was a caution to all observers. The seal weighs only ten pounds, but it eats tour ounds of salmon per day and looks around or more. From is a slight idea may be formed of the amount of salmon consumed by thousands of seals and hundreds of sea- lions which haunt the mouth of the Col it would seem that while the the Un ted States Government endeavor- ing to keep up the eae of salmon in the umbia by means of a hery vy A might help the by pabtng some steps to exter. minate the seal and sea-lions.

ILLOECKER did not write his best music when he wrote The Vice Admiral,’’ but he was in good jolly humor and wrote some of his brightest and catchiest music. The airs have a rollicking» catching quality which is more enjoyed by many people than a higher class of music, particularly whenit is too warm to think. The production of the opera, if not actually the cleverest and handeomest, is among the best that have been given at the cave. It is full of good singing and racy entertainment and the costumes and stage pictures are ex- tremely picturesque, The weather having in- terfered considerably with the attendance last week, the opera will be continued for two nights this week, to-night and to-morrow night, andthe announcement wil! doubtless be welcomed by the public. The production has made a hit with all who have seen it. > = > All of the prime donne of the Cave are brought in conjunction by ne Vice Ad- miral’’ and they make a clever array of fem- ininity. Celie Ellis and Clorette Vanderbilt are both pretty and can sing, but are opposite types. Miss Vanderbilt is rather retiringly girlish and quiet and insinuates her way into favor while Mies Ellis takes her audience by storm and is full of tire and Aush.

There are scores of St. Loulsans who go two or three times a week just for tite pleasant ride and to get out into the pure air where they can sit and bear the music, laugh at the oddities of Gilbert’s wit and enjoy the clever singlug and acting of the Company» There is something so novel and realistic about the production that it seems to renew the charm of the opera. The Kensing- ton is a pleasant place to go either by day or night and the concerts on Sunday afternoon offer delightful free entertainment for those who want to go out of the city. e*« Those who have seen Lole Fuller’s wild ex- stacy of motion in the dance may have noticed that there are points of resemblunce between her singing and her dancing. When Miss uller sings she doesn’t go into a corner and hum or only occupy a small section of her throat with her voice, but, to speak in nautical terms, she puts a ‘*nigger’’ on the safety valve and throws her wide open. She sings as if she meant it. When she sees a high note coming she doesn't sidle up to it and wriggle around on tip-toe to catch it, but she takes a high jump and grabs it hard and quiek. She is a whote-souled singer and makes herself heard. But, riously, Miss Fuller is remarkably good singing in This is her first appearance comic opera and she has developed a reso- nant voice of sweet quality which will surprise her New York friends when she goes back to — ga In opera, as she expects to do. Still she uses it impuisively. * * - Over at Schnaider’s Garden tuneful ‘‘Mari- tana’’ made a success last week and will be iyen once more to-night.

Out of twenty or twenty-five professionals interviewed by the reporter as to prevalent superstitions among the dramatic people, all butone or two said the most generally ob- served superstition isthe ‘‘Macbeth’’ music; it must neither be snug, hummed nor whistled outside of the performance. A few months ago the writer was passing hurricdly along the street when he meta very bandsome actress, says the Richmond (Va.) State. She was ac- companied by a 2 friend whom the writer knew. The lady’s escort sopeet the writer and an introduction followed. e lady was In a hurry and so was the reporter. Which is most prevalent superstition on the stage?“ The ‘Macbeth’ music, of course, the lady replied, and on they passed, she going one way and the reporter another. But why did he ask me the question?“ the lady remarked to her escort, who afterward repeated the conversation to the writer, „when the very thought of the ‘Macbeth music makes me shudder?’’ Referring to this superstition a few nights since, Fred Warde said: „The ‘Macbeth’ music was composed soon after Shakspeare’s day by Matthew Locke. as is very fine and many actors are thoroughiy familiar with it, but you can never get one to sing a bar of it off the stage. The supersti- tion that the person who ain or hums it exceptin the performance will meet with a — 4 fate is almost as old as the music it- self.“ Other superstitions very generally observed among theatrical people all over the world are these: The yellow clarinet must never be allowed In the theater orchestra. It brings bad luck. A dead-head must never be the first to enter the theater. The tag (the last speech of a lay) must never be spoken at rehearsal. Thirteen people must never be on the stage at the same time. The number must be either greater or less. A cross-eyed man must never be seenin the audience by the star of the company. ‘*‘Some dramatic artists have superstitions eculiar to themselves,’’ said Mr. Bell, the sandsome leading man in Bhea’s company. Fanny Davenpert, for example, has a great horror for peacock feathers. Last fail she re- fused to come on the stage in a New England city because the decorations of the theater in- cluded a few peacock feathers. She cannot look at a peacock fan or remainin a room with a peacock fly- brush. It is curious, but itis true, nevertheless.

Special Correspondence of the Post-Disratca. ONDON, June 22.— Of Americans stay- ing in London it is said there are not so many as usual, but one meets them everywhere. A conspicuous figure is Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, whose dramatiza- tion of Little Lord 8 Fauntleroy’’ is now running with such success. Mrs. Burnett goes outa great deal and wears lovely, artistic tollettes, which are as much admired as her work. She looked exceedingly well the other day ata reception given by Mrs. Felix Mosche- ler, the wite of the artist, in Cadogan Gar- dens, to introduce Mr. Sydney Woollett toa London drawing-room audience, in a costume of tea-green violet, with atea-tinted vest of lace and lace bonnet, and with vio- lets and white aigrettes. Miss Mary Anderson was also present with her in- timate friend the Baroness Von Hugel, sister to the Earl of Pembroke and also to the beau- tiful Countess of Lonsdale. Miss Anderson is spending her little season of rest at her home at Hampstead, where she lives with her mother and other members of the family. It isa beautiful, wide, sunny house, with a great interior hall and gallery, upon which the upper rooms open. Salve“ is out in the marble ofthe porticoed entrance, and tne music-room, dining room and cheerful, spacious drawing-room, with deep-seated bay windows, open upon an acreofiovely shaded grounds, equipped for lawn tennis, with tented pavillions for afternoon tea, and looking out uvon the historic heath of Hampstead, not biasted, as we think of all heaths since Shakespeare’s time, but undulating, breezy and . pictur- esque, with distant hillsand near-by woods, made famous by Byron and Shelley and Oole- ridge, and affording on a clear day a view of the spire of the Chureh of Harrow, which Byron has immortalized from this very spot. HAMPSTEAD is the most beautiful of the London suburban districts, hardly to be called a suburb since it is quite within London and easily reached by omnibus, underground railroad or cab. But it lies high, isterraced up with many hand- own grounds and gardens, and has fora park the whole of Hampstead Heatn, recently se- cured to the public as its property for ever. Here and inthe immediate neighborhood of North Regent’s Park live many artists and lit- erary men. Here comes at least once a week, for the good air, Sir Frederick Leighton, President of the Royal Academy, and here Mary Anderson lives ‘‘out of doors,’’ with a circle of intimates, which includes Alma Ta- dema and his family, Lady Mary Hugel, one act Lytton, Lord and Lady Pem e . 8.

Correspondence of the Post-DisraTcu. — ~The day of e the Grand [Prix was «a pattern one, so far so the weather was concerned. The great race day was nei- ther too warm nor too cold, neither sunny nor rainy. A discreet veil of clouds tem- pered the ar- dor of the sun, yet was not dense enough to send down a single drop rain. Earlyin the morning all Paris was n the alert. The strects were alive with ele vant equlpages, withthe great ruee-wagons ingling witu bells, and with innumerable abs, the latter ciroulating slowly ’ and fro in the hopes of icking up fares at fancy prices, for a good verage cab driver expects on this great day 2 receive from $6 to $8 as his fee for a trip oLongchamps. Out at the race-course itself he scene was one of extraordinary-brilliancy. ‘he grand stands were thronged with ladies oe — hee 5 — n every variety of elegant summer costume in every possible shade of delicate flower- ke coloring, the scarlet dresses that are much in vogue this season lighting p the whole with dashes of vivid brin- cy. It must be confessed that feminine decision of fashionable Paris has adopted a much more sensible style of DRESSING AT THE RACES than was customary under the Empire, when ladies wore tothe Grand Prix toilettes that were not magnificent ball dresses simply be- they were made bigh tothe throat and th long sleeves. This season they are what we would consider in the United States ex- tremely pretty watering-place dresses, fou- . and muslins and embroidered erapes beirg in the majority.

Horses come and horses go, but fashion goes on for- ever. And everybody enjoyed themselves so ve much, owen to the pleasant weather. It is wonderful, the difference that a rainy Grand Prix day causes in the SUMMER ENJOYMENTS OF THE PARISIANS, not merely 2 those of the wealthier classes, who have horses and carriages, seats on the grand stand, toilettes from Worth, and din- nere at oyen’s or at the Cafe des Ambassa- deurs. The mortals less favored by Fortune, who hire chairs and sit on the curbstoncs along the Champs Elysee to see the return, or A Race Hat. people with their chi- dren who throng the sidewalks clear out to the gates of the Bois, ail partake of the galety and brightness of the great sum- mer festival. It is the most charming day that Paris knows inthe sunsbine of her June hours. There is nothing like it elsewhere, unless, perbaps, at Nice, during the perfumed skirmishes of the Battle of Flowers. The engagement of the Princess Letitia Bon- aparte to her uncle, the Duke d' Aosta, has been . contirmed. The marriage will take place at Turin in the month of Septem- ber. The Duke will then give up his alace of La Cisterna, which he inherited from is first wife, and where he has resided ever since, leaving it to the occupancy of his three sons. The bride and bridegroom will be in- stalled thereafter in the royal palace at Turin, which is one of the handsomest in Italy, and is held in ullar reverence by the royal fam- ily as having been the home of their race while yet the sovereigns ofit were only the Kings of Sardinia. An immense degree of sat- rojected marriage in Italy, asin case of the Prince of Naples dying unmarried or without male issue it would give to the Italians a Queen consort, whois not only the grand-niece of the great Napoleon, but also the granddaughter of their the working i beloved Victor Emanuel.

HRS. SHERWOOD ON GOSSIP AND SOCIETY TALK. The Young Man and the Emerald Ring— How a Man's Life Was Ruined by Un- founded Gossip—Disgraceful Tale-Bear- ing—Society Is Often Not a Refining In- fluence. [Written for the PosT-DISPATCH.1 Rumor is a pipe Blown by surmisos, jealousies, conjectures, And of so easy and so plain a stop That the blunt monster with uncounted neads, The still discordant, wavering multitude, Can play upon it. T is the town talk. zh) ae What a favorite ex- a pression for a thou- sand slanders, a thou- sand fabrications! Itis nota thousand since that it went all over a cer- tain townthat a young man of fashion had stolen an emerald ay —- Py ring. It was lost ata inner it turned up in ~ his pocket (minus the — emerald); he then re- if" Y— turned it to its owner. S$ Without stopping to question the extreme improbablility of this . story (for who but an idiot would have sent back the skeleton ring?) socicty accepted it, and the young man was ruined. One old friend said to nim. Oh! it was you then, you thief, who stole my mother’s opal!’’ The clubs discussed it, women added on stories of lost bracelets, etc., and the whole world called M. Scelerat a thief, avictim to kleptomania. His father, his grandfather and his mother’s family, it was remembered, had all been light-fingered ; he was accused of many other crimes, and M. Scelerat was condemned to the social galleys. Then came the ladyto a dinner, with the ringen her finger, the emerald intact. She e foded the whole story. She had moved oes. down on her finger; it had rolled off, as rings will, for they are very playful things and get going, unconsciously, fond of hiding under bookcases and sideboards; it slipped away, M. Scelerat trod on it and loosened one of the diamonds; he took it to a jeweler, had the little brilliant replaced and then gave it back to its owner. Now, did society apologize to M. Scelerat? Never! Did it say, we have injured you and we are sorry? No! It turned a cold shoulder upon him at the next Patriarch’s. If people whispered, ‘‘But Mrs. Golightly has the ring on her fager, they said ‘*'Whitewash!’’ and remembered ignominious stories of his youth. A youth, no donbt, full of follies. But have not some otber youths committed indiscre- tions? Whose coat can be turned wrong side out without betraying here and there a tat- tered lining? Why does society find such pleasure in believing the worst? j Start a lie on its travels, it goes like elec tricity, nor does it have to pay its way. Start the truth, and it is stopped at every station. Say that a President whips his wife, and everybody believes it. Say that he does not, and how few believe it! Now, is there any remedy for this? The at- tacks upon wowen, severe, unreasonable, hid behind the hand, far more dangerous than an assault of a brutal foe; for if any one attacks a woman openly all men rush to the rescue. All women strive to stew their friendship; it is combat a l’outrance. We can fight an open foe in an open er but oh, the Indian system of ambush—that is the deadly thing. Then why is itthat people are so much more prone to believe the eyilside of a story than the good one? At a watei ng place, if a woman tells a spicy anecdote a one end of the piazza, she will probably see it in a newspaper in the evening, articularly it there is anything in it which injuriously affects some pretty young rich woman. » The flying rumors gathered as they rolled, carce au tale was sooner heard than told, nd all who told it added something new, And all who heard it made enlargements, too; In every ear it spread, on every tongue it grew. The observer of society and human nature must recognize with a sort of wonder how some people seem to absorb into themselves all the gossip of society, as Winkelreid took the hostile spears into his honest breast, while others, much more guilty, escape. So that even slander is baffled on its own ground. They never get it right, exactly. Now, where is slander born? Probably of all the great heroes whose birthplace is name- less this would be the most difficult place to find. Seven cities might contend for the honor, and yet certain slanders have remote and most unexpected birthplaces. The end of winter finds people in gay so- clety oircies tired, angry, disillusioned. Things may not have — altogether well withthem. Here and there a character has disappointed them; worldliness has become aintully apparent. Snobs have increased and ores are s common as mosouitoes on Long 181 rs. Plantaganet’s ball was dull; Mrs. Sunde:.and’s supper was greasy, and Mrs. Montmorency’s tea was very mixed. The prominence of those horrid Jenkinses has been disgusting. Even the most robust society lover in this country has to swallow a bitter pill. The success of the vulgar element is always very much like the mud which threat- enstofillup the Suez Canal. Both need con.- stant dredging. But whois to do the dredging? The flood of irresponsible wealth which flows in threatens to swamp the limpid flow of n pure and noble society. Our form ot gov- ernment is very much against it. A prominent writer has come out in a national review to say that in New York **Society is no longer a controlling and refin- ing influence. Scandal flourishes and reputa- tions die. These are harsh human outlines and must be accepted; while there is no other noble thing to do, people will talk and listen to scandal to amuse themselves. In Signor Molandine’s Niece,’’ the young girl asks the old wordly-wise baroness: Madame, are there any honest or virtuous people in that bitter crowd, which you call the world?’’ ‘*I don’t think of any at this moment,“ the Baroness replied dryly. ‘‘There may be some who hold *he cut flowers of virtue as orna- ment.’’ The trouble mainty lies with us in America, that we are not very aps on the proprieties and in good manners; and careless people, innocent people, often get scandalized, who do not deserve it. And then, again, there is no doubt but that astory can be told, a character described, an incident recalled, and a conversation quoted, in two ways, honestly told by the people, yet both stories will be so totally unlike, that the most impartial of judges would be puzzled to find out the true story. Then a set ot opti mista will see excellence, goodness, beauty, where the pessimists will a see vice, dcegra- dation and misery. One hears the night- ingaie the other the raven, pro- phetic bird of night! To one; the sun setting forms a magie picture; to the other it is but a presage of bad weather to-morrow. Some people secm to lood at nature through a sass of old wine, a stained glass window, a laude Lorraine glass. To them the spring- 5 * . 4 h) - — | fide has always a flowery grace; the others use sinoked glass. All nature is in an eclipse. It is clouded, dreary, dull. The desolate ravine, the stormy path, the blighted heath; that ie all which they can find in that book which has a chapter for everybody. Are then they the only foola who see the leasant side? Are they alone the visionaries ho perceive the best rather than the worst? In society those people are 1 at and seoffed who see a particulariy bright light in an eye considered dull; who are — ssed favorably with the otherwise unpopular En- lishinan who has married an , who sure that Mrs. Carew did not say the r* things which are attributed to her, and who do not believe the unhandsome tra- ditions Pos me een Mr. Bamfyide. Such a per- son is oa „weak, 1 n, easily bam - boosled, and dreadfully wantingiu that wise icism which is said to be the handmaid sense. mn rr P ee ee mpieut. Greele While there are two sides to the shield, why not look ree golden one? To truth may of course have its ant „ We may, Uke Col. Sellers in we play, delude ourselyes and our friends t there ‘‘are millions in it’’ and land in poverty, wrecking our friends, if we have an excess of the bum hope. But when we are weighing our friends’ characters, it will not hurt them or us if we delude ourselves that they are better than they are. Those who have sunshine and charity enough for themselves and to spare, are very rare and very agreeable people. Nothing is more common in society than a repetition of a conversation, and the com- ments made by one’s friends on another. Nothing is more dishonest; nothing, alas! more common than the repetition of the com- mentary, meant L. be 8 natured, on an — friend, made with all the sugar left out. Sometimes the very change of an accent, or a word, may construe a perieetly innocent re- merk into an attack: This is bearing false witness;“ it is the un- — sin, for while such a person is eeping within the limits of truth,she is really conveying a lie. Such are the most dangerous slanderers, the sweet-voiced, smiling people, who carry a rat tlesnake in their bosoms, a hidden dagger in their tongues. It is not oasy to tell the unvarnished truth, as every lawyer will assure us. Those who are in the habit of taking evidence find what a shilly-shally thing human observation is, to start with, and again, what a treacherous thing is language! The facultios va Then the mind of some good men and good women is absolutely without an intellectual percep- tion of the truth. Wo have known some men and women, excellent moral characters, who never told the truth in their lives. They do not know how. Therefore, the habit of making a statement favorable or prejudicial to character does, with such people, depend on the charitable or malicious feeling of the moment, When society isa hotbed of evil passions, one person succeeding at the expense of an- other; whan we see how severe is the suffer- ing of the person who does not succeed, can we wonder that too much slander becomes the rule, and not the exception? Would it not be the safest excess, therefore, to always poetize the truth, and to always say of everybody behind their backs exactly what we would say to their faces, How that would alter the conditions of our modern society! If you would with precision speak, Five things observe with care, To whom you speak, of whom you speak And whep, and Now, and where. These empirical rules have never affected the r much. selfish medicine must be administered. Who, then, was ever benefited himself by breathing a scandal against another? ‘‘Re- venge is sweet, it is said, but who is so mis- erable as the person who has taken a great re- venge? Has he a happy face? Is envy a pleas- ant or remunerative passion? rather does it not burn up the heart? How much should we achieve if we spent our livesin detraction, inspite and in con- tempt? Are the vipers a very useful or a pleasant set of citizens, to themselvos or others? Which ts the more agreeable picture— Florence Nightingale carrying help to the wounded or Mrs. Carew going about with the latest mot, the most pernicious sear dal charg- ing every one with meanness, malice, hatred and all gncharitableness? Are we innocent while we absorb scandal, while we sit silentlyand hear our friends abused? Should we not soften down the rumor, disbelieve half ofit, give the unfort- unate Scelorat the benefit of a doubt? Will it do any harm if, indescribing a char- acter, we give it a becoming drapery, as Titian did his women? He poetized the truth. To poetize the truth, on the side of charity, cannot bea great vice. If itis one, the re- cording angel will probably dropatear. Itis tne magic wand which the idealist, like a mighty power, may wave over a troubled sea, or like these sudden sunsets after a storm, which not only control the wave, but which gilds the leaden mass with crimson and with unexpected gold. It may reach some storm- driven sail, and give it the light of Hope. To breathe a charitable word A the tempest tossed the encouragement a well-defined shore, and it may add a true bearing for the lately distracted compass. Rs. M. E. SHERWOOD, MARION AGAIN CHOSEN. Mrs. Cleveland to Visit the Little Cape Cod Village This Summer. MARION, Mass., June 28.—This quiet Cape Cod town is all agog over the prospect of Mrs. Cleveland’s coming here again for several weeks this summer. During her stay last sea- son she won the hearts of all, and her visit here again is looked forward to with great an- ticipations, it only forashorttime. She will have a different cottage this summer, and, in some respects, a better one. That of last sea- son was in a very conspicuous place—on the principal thouroughfare and close to the station, This year it is probable that she will 2 the cottage known as the Old House on the Point, which belongs to Mr. Geo. Delano, a resident of Rochester, who does husiness in New Bedford. He is an old-line Democrat, and is said to be well acquainted with Presi- dent and Mrs. Oleveland. The house has been repaired and will nished. It is situated on the point in the harbor opposite the landing, and commands a most excellent view of Buzzard’s Bay. There 5* no other soon be The Old House on the Point. house within half a mile, and but two or three within a mlle. It can be reached by boat b rowing across the river from the upper vil- lage, and the carriage road turns off from the main street directly opposite the cottage that and family and Mrs. Cleveland ceupied last year, continues for about one- half a mile, turns to the right, and reaches the house about half a mile further. The house Mrs. Cleveland is expected to oc- cupy is astory and ahalf cottage, painted ellow, with red roof. It faces the village and an a Veranda on two sides of it. A small veranda also projects from the * story on the east. There is plenty of ya room and a few apple trees, A large barn stands inthe rear, and an excellent well of water is near the house. It hae telephone counection with the villages of Mattapoisett and New Bedford. A small salt-water river makes upon the north and south sides, and within a three minutes’ walk from the house isthe beach where Mrs. Cleveland last year took her sca baths. In driving to this quiet place the carriage passes through alarge archway of trees, and past many meadows of new-mown hay. So much public curiosity was excited by re. Cleveland’s visit last summer to this quiet and heretofore unknown little village that she fears an early announcemont of her intention to come re again will bring a crowd of summer visitors. Her object in choesing Marion ig to finda place where she can have sea air and absolute relaxation from any social duties. Mra, Cleveland is very fond ofthe county, and especially enjoys a view of green ficids that incfides a glimpse of the ocean. Marion sunita all these require- ments, and the families of Lieut. Greely and Richard Watson Gilder of the Century are inti- mate friends of Mrs. Cleveland. It is not known, except by one or two pee: sons, when Mrs. Cleyeland will arrive. Last year the first knowledge of her cond was when a special car on the Old Colony Ratlroad backed down tothe Fall River pier at Fall River and Mrs. Cleveland stepped off the boat. It was not known where she was going or whom she would visit until the train stopped at New Bedford and Lieut. Greely's carriage earried hersix miles away to the town of Marion. It is thought tnat she will come very quietly this year and only one or two persons iti know of her visit until she has arrived, The report that the any: of — 2 House out in y led to make inquiries as to they can secure near 637 for the Bound Trip, St. Louis to Colorado Springs and Denver. $59°50 St. Louis to Ogden and Salt Lake City and return via Missouri Pacific Railway, The Colorado Short Line.

A SECRET ORDER FOUNDED IN VIRTUE, MERCY AND CHARITY. : The Origin and Growth of the Socicty—Its Methods Grounded in Business Principles ~The Order in St, Louis—Some of Its Most Prominent Members and Its Largest Lodges—A Successful Organization That Has Paid Out Over $9,000,000in Benefits. IRTUER, Merey and Oharity, ia the shib- oleth of the Royal Ar- canum, sounded on the shores of the At- lantic, in the shades of Boston’s Faneuil . Hall, and echoing and re-echoing across the continent to where the Pacific laps the Western slope. Prior to 1877 certain promi- ment men of Massa- chusetts felt a grow- ing demand fora ben- eficiary order, estab- lished upon business j principles, and incor- porating the improvements which had been suggested by modern experience. The little leavyen soon worked to such effect that on June 28, 1877, the Kc Arcanum, a secret beneficiary order, was sprung upon the com- munity with legislative sanction. Jumping at once into business, they imitated the great political parties Of the country, and estab- lished.a platforsn. The planks were selected none with knots, sug- gesting a possibility of dropping out and leav- ing holes, were allowed; each was planed, ad- justed with the spirit-level of sound judgment and so constructed as to dovetail throughout in one solid structure. The first plank was for the uniting fra- ternally of all, while men of sound bodily health and good moral character, sociably acceptable and between the ages of majority and five decades and a half. Secondly, to furnish all moral and material aid in its power to its members and those dependent upon them. Following thiscamea clause for the educa- tion of its members, socially, morally and in- tellectually, and for the assistance of widows and orphans of deceased members. Another ‘sturdy plank upheld the determination to es- tablish a fund for the relief of sick and dis- tressea members, While the last and most care- fully dressed plank upheld the establishment of a widows’ and orphans’ benefit fund, from WLich, on satisfactory evidence of the death of a member of the order, who was in good standing, a sum not exceeding $38,000 should be paid to his family or those depen- ent upon him, accord- ing to his direction.

In 1883 suffictent strength existed to establish aGrand Council, which has been the State executive department ever since. At present Thomas P. Morse is the Grand Regent. He is a member of Compton Hill Council, No. 556, and was one of the original members of the Grand Coun- cil. In 1886 he was elected Grand Vice Regent, being re- 9 elected in 1887, and .was then chosen for the position be now occupies.

Upon taking charge the order wes becoming phlegmatio and was waxing old of dry rot. His grip upon affairs sent an electric shock of yim through the subordinate councils in the State. Ever active, night and day, he stayed the faltering and waning spirit, revivifled mat- a. ters and the member- ~~ ship took a new lease oe on life to such effect that he was re-elected for 1886 and for 1887, staying in office three terms, something without precedent in the entire order. Upon his retirement from of. fice he was presented with one of tue hand- somest jewels of office ever constructed. $0 W. E.

Besides this it possesses a national reputation, for the personnel of Its work and its successful business It took its position in the Royal Arcanum on February 20, 1880, and was the third Council inthe State.

Meetings are held on the sec- ond and third Thursdays of each month and are made as interesting as possible. An ex- cellent quartette send delightful echoes through the Valley, vibrating the sacred secrets safely entombed among the archives. The quartette is formed of George P. Doan, Jr., of Ford & Doan, commission merchants; Walter Gilliam of the Samuel Cuprles Woodenware Co.; Edward Dierkes, brother of the Assistant District Attorney, and W. K. Stannard, son of ex-Gov.

NEW YORK, June 80.—To the recent public benefactions for which this city is indebted to members of the Vanderbilt family a new one is about to be added by George W. Vanderbilt. He is agentleman of studious habits and cul- tivated literary tastes, hencé his unheralded itt appropriately enough assumes the form of a well-equipped free circulating library, the treasures of which will be at the command of all comers a week hence. It is located ina section where such an accommodation will be uppreciated and enjoyed. If you pass along Eighth avenue until you reach the triangular little patch which, with a fine contempt for geometric accuracy, is designated Jackson Square, your vision will be at once attracted by a new building of quaint architectural design on Thirteenth street, aboutadozen doors from Eighth ave- nue. You have doubtless seen similar fronts or gables in pictorial histories of New Amster- dam, and a few of them still survive in narrow and tortuous streets down town. Notwith- standing its oddity this old Dutch front is a pleasant one to look upon, while it has the vital merit of enabling the architect to utilize to the best advantage the space at his dis- posal. In gold letters above the door you read the inscription: NEW YorK FREE CIRCULATING LIBRARY. Jackson Square Branch. Building, books and furniture are alike do- nated by Mr. George W. Vanderbilt, but the donor modestly declined to affix his own name to the institution. Externally the structure is of dull red brick, trimmed with stone and surmounted with an iron finial. It extends through almost the en- tire depth of the lot, and its great height gives admirable proportions and air spaceto the three stories. The upper sashes of the win- dows areset with stained bull’s-eye glass of antique pattern. The main room, or library proper, is exceptionally well lighted from windows opening directly on three sides and from a spacious airshaft on the west side. One steps into this room immediately from the street. It is alofty apartment, finished throughout in hard wood, which material is also used in the panelied ceiling. About fifteen feet back from the door stretches a low partition, sur- mounted bv an exquisitely wrought brass rail- ing, through which one can see the long lines of bookcases extending to the rear ofthe building. Within this railing the librarian and ber assistants will perform their offices. The outer space is fitted with desks, umbrella stand and other conveniences for those who come to borrow books. To the right, as one enters, a solid stairway leads up tothe second story, the whole area of which is surrendered to the uses of a free reading-room. Here all the leading news- . and periodicals ofthe world will be opt on file, and books may be had from the storehouse beneath, an elevator being at hand to bring them upand down. An ornament of the room will bean elaborate Dutch clock, while maps and pictures will decorate the walls. About one-third of the area of the reading room israiled off forthe exclusive use of ladies. The chairs are invitingly easy and Mr. Vanderbilt has been even thoughtful enough to providea liberal supply of cute little ootstools for the gentle sex. In the front portion ot the third story the librarian, Miss Stott, will have a cosy home, which will furnish accommodations also when required for Miss Coe, the chief librarian of the free circgjating system. These apart- ments have en furnished throughout by Mrs. R. M. Hunt, President of the Society of Decorative Art, to whom Mr. Vanderbilt gave carte blanche for the purpose. The floors are of hardwood, waxed and polished, with rich, soft rugs to relieve them; the walls are done in a pale, terracottatint that harmonizes pleas- antly with the fowered chintz of the oaken furniture. There are open fireplaces, although the building is heated by steam. Bureaus are stored with linen of exquisite texture, and even the dainty China service is there. Jan- itress Webber. as she conducted the WORLD reporter through the various rooms, seemed prouder of nothing in the building than of her porcelain-lined washtubs. This is so fine,’’ said she, that even Mr. Vanderbilt, himself, was delighted with it. Instead of establishing his library on an iso- lated basis, Mr. Vanderbilt has made it, asthe name indicates, a branch of the New York Free Circulating Library—an institution which has grown and flourished like the banyan tree since it modestly took root eight years ago in two hired rooms. In addition to the parent stem in Bona street, it now embraces the Ot- tendorfer Library, in Second avenue, and the Bruce Library, established by Miss Catherine Bruce in memory of her father. On July 5 the Jackson Square branch will open as the third of these beneficent moralagencies. The deed conveying the lot, structure and all its con- tents to the Liorary Association was presented a week ago by Mr. Vanderbilt to President Benjamin H. Field. It will open with 6,000 volumes of standard English works, and after a coupie of months its shelves will also con- tain 700 standard German works, which have been already ordered. The rules of the Library Association will rovern the lending of books at the Jackson quare branch. If the — 2 — is over 12 rears old and furnishes satisfactory reference, eorshe may thereafter browse among the catalogues and take home any boox desired, including even books of such value that other libraries do not permit them to be taken away. More than thirty thousand persons already avail themselves of this privilege, and the number will be largely augmented by Mr. Vanderbilt’s giftto the dwellers on the west side. Mr. Vanderbilt inspected the library yester- day forenoon and expressed himself highly —— at its appearance and the prospect of ts speedy opening. Creve Cour Lake. It is pleasant and cheap to spend a day at Creve Cour Lake, away from the heat and via the Missouri Pacific Railway, which is the only line direct ty the hotel, picnic grounds und boat-houses. Sunday trains leave Union Depot at 6, 8 and 9:30 a. m., 1:30, 2 and 4:35 p. m., returning last train leaves the lake at 10 p. m. Week day trains leave Union Depot at 6 and 9:30 a. m., 1:80 and 4:25 p. m., returning last train leaves the lake at 6:55 p. m. Wine From Rose Leaves. From the Atlanta Journal. Says a lady of this city who is a good house- keeper: I ö visited a friend recently and she ve me a glass of wine. It was of a pale am- r tint and had all the sparkle and delicacy of flavor of champagne, and when o ed popped ots it was effective, thou asa stimulant, and] thought it very fine. | asked what variety of grape it was made from, and my friend tod me that it was made of rose ves. ‘Take the freshly picked leaves,’ she said, and put into «a tor nately a layer of ves ud * and pour * strain, let * use,’ The wine is a delyrhty dust of the city.

He Says Fashionable Summer Resorts Exert a Good Influence by Giving a Change, but Advocates Open Air Living for Summer Months—How a Good, Healthy Tent Can Be Constructed—Its Advantages From a Health standpoint. (WRITTEN FOR THE POST-DISPATCH. ] HE average American of good social and pe- cuniary position in the world thinks it is his bounden duty to himeeif and his family to get out of the town into the country as early as possible after the approach of hot weather. Rarely does he do s0, however, with any idea that the change would be ben- eficial to the health either of himself or of those dependent upon him. He may, per- haps, have ascarcely formed notion that he and they need rest after the arduous duties attendent upon labors in Wall street anda „season“ in the upper part of the city. But in the vast majority of cases he goes, lugging his wife and his sons and his daughters after him (or else they lug him), not for any pur- pose connected with their health, not to ob- tain rest, mental or physical, not to insure freedom from excitement, but solely with the object of changing the character of the excitement. The old stimuli have lost their pungency, the raw spots have become callous tothe goad, and the mode of excitation must be changed. The old torturers were wellaware of this weak- ness inthe human organism, and that even the keenest methods of causing pain that their ingenuity could invent failed after a little while to produce the necessary amount of pain, and something different, even if less effective in its power to agonise, had to be brought into requisition. What is true of pain is equally true of pieasure. The most vivid means of enjoyment has but a comparatively short range before it begins to lose its power to please, Aball every night would soon bring satiety, and a 5o0’clock tea would be happiness in comparison. The pleasures of Newport or Long Branch are tame after those of business menand society women in New York, but they are different, and hence they are eagerly sought after. The people who flock in such numders to fashionable summer resorts in their quest for fresh excitements build better than they know. Health does not enter intotheir plan of operations, but the very change itself, with allthe ignoble circumstances that generally attend it, is nevertheless beneficial. The spur upon the mind is justas sharp, the hours are just as lo te, the gaslight is just as flaring, the food is just as bad, ifnot worse, but for all these things they return to their city domiciles brighter in mind and fresherin body than when they boarded up their front doors and hied them off with bag and baggage to some fashionable summer place of dissipation. In spite of all the disadvantages attendant upon their pilgrimage they have gained something that makes them stronger both in mind and body than when they left their city homes. Something that will for several months to a resist the enervating influences of city life. 19 & 70 - ee el „* HOME-MADE SUMMER RESORTS. Of course they have not done the best they might have done. Instead of resorting to crowded hotels, the material comforts of which they might just as readily have ob- tained by going up into their ‘own attics and turning off the water and the gas, they should have gone tothe woods, the mountoins or fields where the purest water flows fresh the bosom of the earth and where little or no artificial light will be needed. They should live as much as possible in the open air. Such u life is not to be obtained in badly constructed, — ventilated and hot farm - houses any more than it is in crowded hotels. In fact, the hotel is as a rule to be preferred. Is can only be got by cutting loose from all such habitations and spending the hot months of July and Augustin tents, as many as may necessary to accommodate the whole family. I am quite convinced that if every man, woman and child in a large city could pass these months with no other shelter than can- vas their lives would be infinitely more healthy and the duration of them materially increased. During six months of our Middle States oli- mate a tent affords advantages as a dwelling place unsurpassed by any otherthatman can erect, and even during winter it can be ren- dered as safe and as comfortable as the tight- est brown- stone mansion in the city of New York. It needs no windows and no special means for ventilation, for a constant change of alr is going on through the material of which it is composed and it may be occupied day and night. A person entering it from the fresh outside atmosphere detects no unpleas- ant odor. The walls of houses absorb the effluvia which is given off from our bodies and some- times send them back to us bearing with them germs of fatal disease. A notable example of this is afforded by the case of a ward in the old New York Hospital when it was located in Broadway many years ago. Hospital gan- grene had occurred in this ward, aud though the patients were all removed, together with the furniture, the disease attacked other patients who were placed in it. The ward was then closed for some time, the walis white- washed and the whole room thoroughly cleansed and purified; yet when it was again opened for the W * of patients the dis- ease recurred. The plastering was next scraped off und new plaster put on the walls, but without avail, the hospital gangrene attacking the inmates as before. It was not until the entire walls were taken down and rebuilt that the taint was removed. ILthink I am safe in saying that while hos- ital gangrene was very common during our ate civil war there was scarcely an instance of it occurring in those hospitals that con- sisted of tents. Moreover, wounds healed more readily, and convalescence was more rapid among among the patients placed in the tent hospitals than among the inmates of the old buildings that were so often used for hos- pital purposes, or even than amoug the sick and wounde soldiers who occupied the wooden hospitals built expressiy for the purpose.

ButIshalido my duty when 1 give my ad- vice, and it is as follows, addressed to the head of the family: ADVICE TO HEADS OF HOUSES. Get one or more (according to the number of persons you have to e care of) wall tents. The wail tent is so called from the fact that it has a wall four feet high, which can be raised all round, thus allowing the air to cir- culate even more freel the plied with a large called a fly, which goes tent a few inches above it, and by which the rain and the heat of the sun are more effect pe is preferable of which the tents shouid fortunate get w obliged, do it side of each tent with a tarpaul rubber cloth and take it 3 4 clin are a thousand d leave bn B you to — — 2 occu n ou WwW 0 sistance rom the women members of family.

Dancing Boys First, Then Eccentric Dancers N and Now Managers. From the New York Sun. It is hard to escape writing the name of Klralty in chronicling amusement movements. Imre seems a little to the fore just at present, what with his big ‘‘Nero’’ spectacle, the Blondin exhibitions, and his lively prepara- tions for the next season. Bolossy isn’t out ofthe race, however, by long odds, for he keeps the cable busy telling of his foreign reliminaries for his fall and winter work ere. The brothers are decidedly energetic, and in some ways unique. They were born and bred in Pesth, Hungary, the sonsof a merchant who was weil-to-do. Imre wasn't in long breeches before he was a bit of a musical prodigy. He an early hankering for the opera and the fiddie, and his parents encouraged him by taking him frequently tothe one and giving him a tutor for the other. He must have made rapid progress in his studies, for in a month or two he could sin correctly the alre of the standard compositions. . One night he saw a man do a Hungarian dance in one of the operas. It infatuated him to such an ex- tent that he bought a candle out of his pocket money and practiced it surreptitiously before a mirror in the parlor when all the other Kiralfys were in bed. His father detected him, and rewarded him by putting him under the tutelage of the ballet master of the Hun- garian theater. Thut is how Imre came to dance in public before he was 5 years oid: A tour was a consequence, and away he went. Bol ssy, fired by his elder brother's success, went into practicing on his own account. His father found that he, too, pos- sessed agile legs, and he made a firm out of the juveniles, They practiced together, and a few years later invented the style of tesque dancing that has sluce made them world known. After they had traversed the Continent their sister, Haniola, joined them. These three Kiralfys were familiar in most European cities for years following. oo Jarrett of Jarrett & Palmer guve to them their first offer to visit America, but they could not come at that time because their French engagements were in the way. Two years later the late Sam Colville, then one of the managers of Wceod’s Museum, visiting Europe ip search of novelties, engaged them to come here. They made their American de- but atthe old Olympic in June, , in the antomime of Hickory, Dickory, Dock. esides Imre, Bolossy and Haniola, there were other 2 with them—Emelie and Katty—and a half dozen coryphees. After they hud made something of a hit here, George L. Fox took them out with his ‘‘Humpt Dumpty' troupe, and on that tour Imre an Bolossy gained their first knowledge of the rgad’’ inthis country. That they have made good use of their observations everybody con- cedes now. As daring providers of novelties in our amusements, they stand pecullarly, but commendably, alone. . How Jim Tarleton Can Shoot. From an Interview with an Arizona Man. Although there is a, great deal of lying done about Southwestern markmanship, there is no doubt that there are people in our country who can come about as near putting a revovi- er bullet where they want to, in a reasonable range, as you could do it with your fingers, One of the deadest shots in Arizona is Ji Tarleton, and Ill tell you whatI saw him on one occasion. He had bad blood with Irishman tamed O’ Hara, a — und the two men bad promised faithfelly to kill each other on sight. Tarleton was standing in front of a saloon when O'Hara rode up and blazed away at him, cutting his left ear. Tarleton drew and fired almost simultaneous:y, putting a ball through O' Hara's right hand, breuking his istol stock at the same time. Tarieton’s next Bullet, fired with great deliberation, broke the back of O Hara’s horse, which fell, carry- ing the rider down with it. Tarleton stepped over to where his enemy lay and st. od over him, with his revolver pointing straight ut the prostrate man’s fosehead for as much asa minute, although it seemed to as, who were looking on, like half and hour. Then he looked round and seeing a hen about twenty steps away he drew a bead on it, blazed away and shot it throughthe head. Without yg bee - a word he put his pistol away and walked bac into the saloon. O’ Hara got up after a strug- gle and followed him into the bar - room, where the two men shook hands. They were aiter- wards almost inseparable friends.
