Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 6. ESSIMISTS claim to see signs of war in the un- easy feeling which pre- vails in the Austrian capital owing to the more completely pro- Russian attitude of the Servian Ministry, due to the recent suspen- sion of ordinary pass- ports for Servia and the suppression of the Kossovo commemora- tion by the Hungarian and Bavarian Govern- ments. Herr Hengel- the Austrian Minister at Bel- has informed bis Government the majority of the Progressist leaders, the only friends Austria had in Servia, have now adopted liberal or pro- Russian views, but he states that this is due more to the rejection of their demands to make Bosnia an autonism kingdom under Milan than the Kossovo incident, SERVIA’S STANDING ARMY. The Russian view of the illegality of the Bul- Fgarlan Government is being maintained by Servla. The proposed reduction of the Ser- vlan standing army bas been abandoned and instead the battalions are being rapidly in- Mueller, ed creased, a policy which, before the Kossovo incident, would have upset the Servian Ministry, as the peasants — --wpreviously desired a reduction of the regular y, and had the promises of the Regents 4 such a policy would be pursued, In diplomatic circles at Belgrade very little doubt now prevails that the military conven- tion between Serviaand Russia has been rati- fied. Here in London the report published on Monday that the German officers in the Chi- mese service had resigned, to which the in- formation is added to-day that some of them are already en route for home service, is looked upon asa more ominous indication than any recently given. AN ENGLISH STATESMAN’S VIEWS. Roseberry, the best- informed statesman on Enropean affairs in the Liberal party, with the exception of Mr. Gladstone, speaking in ref- erence to a recent article in the London Siand- ard, in wbich the writer claimed that Hellenic “ expirations, like Servian aspirations, Rouma- Dian aspirations and Bulgarian aspirations, are mere counters in the cold and well-caicu- lated games of scil-aggrandizement unceas- ingly played by the Czar, ald: „The article is disappointing to 106 %h⅛oůoͤr Whoo imagined the substance Eastern question was at length begin- to be understood. No one really knows ing of these ‘games.’ But, even granted ey exist, the lesson of the past ten or | years is that they are not ‘well caleu- at all. It may be that Russia looked to Roumania, Greece and, above all, Bul- stepping stones to help her to tinople. The substance of the question is that the stepping stones me stumbling blocks.

Immense Preparations for the Anniver- : sary Event in Paris. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. ARIS, July 6.—For the anniversary of the Fall of the Bastile immense prepara- tions are being made by the national and municipal Govern- ments, by all public bodies and institu- tions, and by the people of Paris gen- erally. Thecelebra- tion is regarded as the culmination of the festivities of the year in connection with the history of the republic, and isto be colossal in its propor- tions in accordance with the universal exhi- bition. ‘‘The vast expression of the power and the triumph of the republic.’’ THE GRAND PARADE. As at previous anniversaries, there will bea parade of the school children fully equipped as soldiers. This has hitherto been one of the most successful features. It is expected that 50,000 children will be in line. Drilling for the display has been going: on in the schools for months. The grand review of the garrison of Paris by the President in the afternoon; and although it will attract half of Paris, which always goes to this magnificent spectacle, it will not begin to arouse the enthusiasm which the march of the child soldiers creates. Frenchmen feel that here they are contribut- ing their quota for the future to rectify the wrongs of France, not yet prepared or in a position to act. In the rising generation they place their hopes; and this isthe significance of the school-boys’ parade. FREE FUN FOR ALL. The opera, all the theaters, cafes chan- tants ana other places of public amuse- ment will be thrown open -free day and night. Booths and shows of all kinds will be erected and displayed along the boulevards and public squares. The streets will be turned into dancing floors, and the city will be one vast open ball room at night. The illuminations will excel even those of the opening of the Exhibition, which surpassed anything of the kind which had been witnessed in Paris before. New combi- nations have been invented for the lighting up of the buildings, grounds and the fountains of the Exhibition and the Trocadero. The Eiffel tower will bea pillar of fire. The Seine will be aglow with vari-colored lights throughout its course through the city, and the splendors of the Venetian fete will be re- newed and increased. At all the public parks there will be elaborate exhibitions of fre- works. The inhabitants will be requested to filuminate their homes in every part of the city and suburbs. The police will all be on duty under instructions to keep good order and preventaccidents. But it is not expected that their services will be needed for the preservation of the peace. POLITICS LAID ASIDE. The people were never in better humor; they have dropped politics, leaving them to the Ohambers, which fight as much as they please among themselves -and are not re- * 7 11 oe a 72 garded. The Parisians are bound to enjoy themselves for the present. They keep their political opinions to them- selves and will display them only at the general election on the 22d of September. There is no evidence that they have changed their minds since they elected Gen. Boulanger by such an overwhelming majority. Neither his absence nor the success of the exhibition have affected his position in Paris, so his friends claim. His success and that of his adberents in the -provincial elections, wherever they please to appear, show that he is not forgotten there, and meet with quiet aud satisfied recognition in Paris. WALES AND BOULANGER. The General’s invitation to and presence at the Prince of Wales’ garden party on Tburs- day causes much rejoicing on the part of his supporters. They regard it as a practical rec- ognition of the honesty and uprightness of their leader’s aims. It is true the General is a personal friend of the Prince, and was invited as such. Of course, there is no political sig- nificance in the act, but the General’s friends argue that the Prince would not ask him to bis house if he considered him a conspirator against his country. _ THD LAND OF TELL. Swiss Courage Withstands the Bluster of Prince Bismarck. pectal Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 6. URING the past fortnight there has been much re- joicing by every lover of freedom over the resolute stand which Switzerland has made against the over-weening pretensions of Bismarck. If Germany had been bent on alienat- ing Swiss sympathies and exciting against herself independent European Opinion she would not ’ have acted othewise than she hasdone. The Swiss were seriously dis- turbed by the Lockspitzel affair in March of 1888. The debates which took place in the German Reichstag in reference to that inci- Gent showed that a whole swarm of spies or secret German agents was being maintained by German money on Swiss soil; that these agents were too often agents provocateurs, and thereby endangered the peace and secur- ity of the country whose hospitality they abused. However, that storm blew over, and the Swiss returned to their normal ways of thinking about Germany, which, at all events, as far as what is commonly called German- Switzerland is concerned, are friendly and sympathetic enough. POLICE VERMIN. A, however, was none tne less to get rid of these dangerous ver nad the opportunity, and the oppor- ‘supplied by the extraord e. ö took the matter up and made great hue and ery. Prince Bismarck declared that all that Germany wanted of Switzerland was the power to keep an eye, by means of secret agents, on the doings of her enemies in the republic. The Swiss Government imme- diately replied that as long as & German secret agent behaves himeeit and neither breaks the law nor incites the breaking of it he would de tolerated, but any claim that such agent should have immunities and privileges which would not be granted to any ordinary foreigner could not be listened to for a mo- ment. Bismarck also asked the Swiss Gov- ernment to refuse admission to any foreigner not provided with papers from his own Gov- ernment. This preposterous demand was civ- illy but decidedly refused. THE OONTROVERSY STILL ON. The controversy has not grown cooler as it has proceeded, and recently Germany laid a complaint before the Federal Counocllof the habitual abuse, as it alleged, by Switzerland of the right of asylum. It has been widely published that the protest was indorsed by Russia, Austria and Italy, and large conclusions have deen drawn from the adhesion to a liberal power like Italy. In point of fact, Italy had nothing to do with the protest. Moreover, though Russia also made representations to Switzerland, she refused to join in common diplomatic action with Ger- many, While Austria, on her part, only sup- ported Germany with areservation. The one thing which all three were agreed in pressing on Switzerland was the demand for a better organization of that portion of the Swiss police which looks after foreigntérs on Swiss territory. The Swiss Federal Council has already taken a step in this direction, which it had before in contemplation. HOW SWISS NEUTRALITY IS SECURED. The German semi-official press should not have dragged the question of Swiss neutrality into the discussion, as it has nothing todo with it, Swiss neutrality is secured, first and foremost, by the strong arms of her own sons; secondly, by the mutual jealousies of neigh- bors: thirdly, by the sense of Europe. The German Liberal papers strongly con- demna Prince Bismarck’s action in the matter, and express surprise that the London Standard and other English Tory organs should indorse the Chancellor’s views. The Berliner Tagebdlatt asserts that there is no sacrifice of English tradition or interest which Lord Salisbury and his obedient henchmen will not make for Bis- marck. They are only too giad to have a chance of blackening his boots. But the English people are not a people of bootblacks, and the voice of Swiss liberty, ‘‘that mighty voice“ which the English poet celebrated, will never fall upon their ears in vain. = FISHERY DISPUTES, The Behring Trouble— Dissatisfied Canadians ~—Events in England. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. ONDON, July 6.— While Lord Salis- bury and Minister Lincoln have agreed upon 4a modus vivendi in Behring’s Sea whereby trouble and vexation and possible cause of war bave been re- moved in the — = Northwest, it is reported thatthe British fleet is to be rein- forced on the North American and West Indies stations. Thereports that the fishery ques- tion will soch be reopened gather strength. Canada alone stands in the way. So far as En- glaud and the Unitad States are concerned both are willing and anxious to negotiate and settle. The Canadians here express dissatisfaction with the easy manner in which the Govern-. ment has treated Canada’s protest on the sub- ject of the Behring Sea seal fisheries, and the announcement that the Government has come to an amicable agreement with America does not suit them at all. There is a feeling in Downing street that the Canadian officials are doing ail in their power to embroil the United States with the home government, and this is a source of constant irritation. Their influ- ence for evil is, however, very small, and there is not the slightest chance that England and America will ever go to war over Canadian grievances. — DAVITT’S WREK. This has been Davitt’s week in the witness box and he has come out of the ordeal making as good an impression as any witness yet, not exeepting Parnell. If any of the New Yorkers still believe O' Donovan Rossa to be the friend of the Irish cause, they should haye heard how Davitt answered Webster’s ques- tion about Rossa, Davitt said the books of the Carlton Club would show that the Tories paid Rossa’s election expenses in Tipperary. Sir Charles Russell is reported to be mortally tired of the Parnell Commission and is said to have expressed an intention to keep away from its session alto- gether now, that Mr. Davitt’s examination has been concluded, until the closing speeches are on. Sir Charles has not been very well of late, and he is now in the hands of sir Dr. Morell Mackenzie. When Mr. Parnell ap- pears before the commission again for cross- examination Sir Charles expects to be on hand, but in the meantime he will allow his associate counsel to look after the interests of the Parnellites before the commission. A MARRIAGE OF AFFECTION. The Prince of Wales, whois a shrewd ob- server of popular opinion, sees what is be- neath all the silly twaddle praising his daughter’s betrothal tothe Earl of Fife and notes the opposition tothe grant by Parlia- ment for her dowry. Inaspeech at the Lord Mayor’s banquet to the Shah he saw fit to to make this statement: My Lord Mayor, I can assure you itis purely a marriage of at- fection.’’ THE MAYBRICK TRIAL. It is fortunate for Mrs. Maybrick that Sir Charlies Russell has undertaken her defense. She has not much money, even though friends in America come generously to her assistance, but the case is going tobe a celebrated one, though Russell has not much to make out ot it in the way of reputation, still it will be a great triumph if he gets the acoused off. Judge Stephens, who is famous for his thorough knowledge of trials {for murder, by poison, has been selected to try the case. Public feeling in Liverpool is bitter against Brierly because it is reported he is going to turn witness for the prosecution in the hope ofsaving hisown neck. He is out not merely socially, but business people, it is said, actu- ally refuse to have any dealings with him. THE DOWNIE ELOPEMENT.

On motion of Dr, John Hall of New York it was decided to pe- tition all the crowned heads of Europe on the question ofobserving Sunday, asking their majesties to exert thelr personal influence in the matter, To-day the delegates scattered, most of them going to Paris. AMERICAN RIFLEMEN. The American Volunteer Riflemen on their matches this week have broken notonly the English, but the American records, with mil- . Every team they have met has been picked. For a team shooting without practice on a strange range every d, this is remarkable, and has set the English volun- teers to thinking. To-day the Americans wentinto camp at Wimbledon, where they compete next week with the English Volun- teers in individual shooting with the British - ers’ own rifles. They stay in Wimbledon next week, and then go to Paris for one week, and sail home on the City of Chicago July 31. ' TORPEDO BOATS. Four torpedo boats are to be dispatched from the Chatham Naval Yard to Bermuda about the 15th inst., under convoy of her Majesty's troop-sbip Tyne. This will be the first time that the Admiralty has attempted to send any of these small, frail vessels across the Atlantic. AMERICAN MONEY. The Chronicle’s Vienna dispatch says the Government succeeded in contracting a loan of 25,000,000 florins with an American syndi- cate. The rate of interest is fixed at 6 per cent. The loan ig secured by mortgage on railways. COMPLIMENTED BY CARDIFF. Mr. Gladstone to-day received a deputation from the corporation of Cardiff, who presented to him the freedom ofthe city. In nis speech acknowledging the honor, he declared if he lived to see home rule pass he would spend the short remainder of his life in retirement, He alluded to the expressions of sympathy he continually received, especially from Amer- ica, and said he was proud of them. PLAIN ENGLISH. American visitors in England express sur- prise at the substitution here of homely Saxon for the elegant French to which they are ac- customed at home upon bills of fare at hotels, restaurants and private dinners. The change here has been slow but sure, and now a ‘‘bill of fare“ is so called and is no longer a menu.“ The dishes are given their good old English names, and it is no longer considered good form to eat anything for which a Saxon name cannot be found. A CHARACTER FROM LIFE. A West End tradesman has brought suit for £20,000 damages against a young authoress whose novels are very painstaking studies of real life. He imagines: that he is the original of one of the characters in her last novel. Largely through this tradesman’s efforts the book has been withdrawn from sale. WOULD RATHER WHISTLE. Patriotic Americans will perhaps be glad to learn that their good-looking countrywoman, the famous whistler, Mrs. Shaw, has had an offer of marriage from a wealthy English bar- onet. They will possibly be still more re- itary rifles. W — CURA. Fine Weather—Price of Sugar Advancing— Coal from the United States, HAVANA, Cuba, July 6. UCH finer weather for the season has never been known in Caba, and the health of Havana is excellent. The ex- aggerated reports of the existence of . 6 ‘ yellow fever all the Men W,year round has N 2 caused a great scarcity of sail ton - nage, and it is with difficulty that ship- ments of sugar are made, and the Mor- gan line of steamers do not stop at Key West on their return trip to New Orleans. The idea of quarantining Key West against Havana at any time, particularly during a season such as the present, is simply ridiculous, and great inconvenience is experienced and much loss of bust ness entailed. Key West is prevented from receiving beef cattle from Cuba, as well as the fruits and vegetables which the great number of Cubans now living in that city need for their daily use. The price of sugar has advanced several points, and may go higher still. Planters are very busy making extensive preparations for the next crop. A number will make important improvements to their sugar machinery and adopt the new method of burning the refuse, or bagasse, in a green or undried condition. The question of fuel is daily becoming of serious Importance to the planter, as most of the wood lands have been cleared. Large quantities of coal are coming to Cuba from the United States as goon as the great scare about yellow fever subsides. A brisk business willcommence in the bringing of coal from the Alabama mines, as large con- tracts have been made with consumers here, who begin to appreciate this fuel.

He was able to sit up in bed yesterday and give instructions to his amanuensis to copy the first chapters. A. P. Watt, who has managed Collins’ literary business for many years, has read the manuscript of Blind Love. and says it is one of the best things Collins has ever done. Last Sunday night while conversing with friends Collins got a partial stroke of paralysis in the leftside. While not sufficient toendan- ger life, it makes him more of a cripple than before and confines him to his bed. Though quite an old man, his physicians think he may still live many months; but his literary work is probably over. FAMOUS PAINTINGS. Some of the Incidents Connected With the Secretan Art Sale. Special Cablegram tothe Post-Disvatch. vam ARIS, July s. It is im- 4 possible to ascertain rom agents what 4 Americans have cap- 2 tured the prizes of the 1 N Secretan sale, but eur - i Z oent report gives most , 5 of them to the Van- \derbilts, Rockefellers, Havemeyers, Walters ot Baltimore and Pot- i ter Palmer of Chicago. Many Americans pres- ent at the sale came out of pure curiosity. They did no bidding be- fore the auction began. American agents went to Sedelmeyer and almost forced him to acquiesce in the condition of secrecy as to the names of buyers. The gist of the reticence lies in the dislike of amateur picture col- lectors to admit that their outside figures given to agents have not been generous enough to secure the coveted treasures. At least such is Charles Sedelmeyer's apology for withholding from American reporters much desired news. So far as prize modern pictures are con- cerned the American competitors are very unlucky, but enjoyed better luck with the old masters. They carried off the ‘‘Intereur Hol- landais’’ of Pietr de Hooghe, but they had to pay $55,000 for it. It is a lovely specimen of the master, but not finer than that in the National Gallery of London, for which an infinitely smaller sum was paid a few years ago. Two admirable Vandermeers, Billet Doux, which went for $12,400, and the Dame et Servante’’ for $28,008, go to America. A famous Rubens, ‘‘David and Abigall, goes to New York in re- turn for no less than $82,000. Three- quarters of the audience which thronged the gallery manifestly come to witness the fate of the famous ‘‘L’Angelus,’’ by Millet. Until this was brought forward all persons had been seated, but when the men carried it to the desk the whole audience rose and re- mained standing. The story of the bidding for this great work will always be one of the most curious in the WA * + } ee incidental art history of our time. French and American bidders be- gan a bitter warfare with each bid, and aseach fresh hundred thonsand francs was reached applause broke out and the com- pany, pale with excitement, pressed closer and closer around the auctioneer. How at the sum of 502,000 francs ‘‘L’ Angelus“ was knocked down to Proust; howmen tossed their hats to the ceiling and ladies sobbed with pleasure; how a calm Yankee stepped in with his cold music and explained that he had made a higher bid; how Proust nearly fainted and was fanned by enthusiastic ladies; how the duel began again until Proust reacted the figure of 553,000 francs; how silence ensued, in which Paris heard the beating of its own heart; how the hammer fell at last and L' Angelus’’ was the property of France in perpetuity—all this is now part of the history of Sutton’s attempt to get L' Angelus“ for America, _ — MANITOBA ELEVATORS. A Line to Be Constructed Along the North. ern Pacific Railway. WINNNIPEG, Manitoba, July 6. HERE is little doubt that work will be comménced shortly on the construction of nine elevators along the Northern Pacific extensions in Manitoba. Grading, track-laying and bridge construction on these lines are being pushed vigorously, and it looks as if the Northern Pacific means to carry the bulk of this year’s grain crop of Manitoba. Hugh Sutherland has made such arrangements with the Canadian Government as will insare the early comp!etion of the Winnipeg & Hudson Bay Rallway. It was thought that when the Manitoba Legisla- ture repealed the act of guaranteeing inter- est onthe bonds of the road to an amount not exceeding $4,500,000, that the enterprise would be abandoned for some years at last, so the announcement now made is gladly re- ceived and it is hoped it will prove correct. PECULIAR CRIMINAL CASE. ST. Jonx, N. B., July 6.—Judge Wetmore has sentenced Fanny Godfrey to the peniten- tiary for life, she having been found guilty of killing her sister, Mary Jane Godfrey. The case was ofa most peculiar character. The evidence shows that the two sisters and an- other girl, the illegitimate daughter of the prisoner, were paupers, and a charge of the parish all their lives. Their home was in a hovel, some eight or ten miles from the . They bad grown n and to stop literary work. nlite grocer for them. April Fannie Godfrey became enraged at her sister, seized a billet of wood and pulled her to the ground, jumped upon her and beat and bruised her badly. The sister died in about two weeks. She had probably been dead a day or two before any one eutside of the fam- ily knew aboutit. Then Fanny told the post- master’s family of her sister’s death and said she (Fanny) had beaten her and she was sorry for it. The Coroner had no post mortem and because of this there were doubts as to the cause of the death. The de- tense set up was first thatthe woman’s death was not proved to have been caused by the prisoner. Second, that the prisoner was in- sane, and therefore not responsible for her act. Although the prisoner was charged with murder, the Attorney-General did not feel it his duty under the circumstances to ask for a conviction of more than manslaughter. The prisoner will be transferred to Kingston, where, if she is found disordered in her mind, she will be placed in the asylum for the crim!i- nal insane. During the whole two days ot her trial she kept up a kind of raving. THE PARIS EXHIBITION, Disappointment Expressed by American Visitors at the Great Show. fpecial Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 6.—Americans returning from Paris express general disappointment at the American section ofthe exhibition. It is par- ticularly due to lack of attention by the American Commissiouers. Michael De Young of San Francisco says the American exhibits are ridiculous for a country of our resources. He says the American Commission- ers were late getting on the ground and allowed themselves to be hoodwinked right and left by tne Frenchmen. There is very little show for the money our Government appropriated to make a good dis- play of American exhibits. John B. Hender- son of St. Louis, who sailed for home to-day onthe Alaska, tells almost the same story. The French, he says, have left little room for any other country. The whole thing was in- tended as a great glorification for Frunce. The exhibits of other nations are insignificant, with England best and the United States and Germany among the worst. — — — — THE FOU RIH“ ABROAD, How America’s National Anniversary Was Celebrated in Europe. Fpecia! Cableg1am to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 6. MERICA bas been in the ascendancy this week. The celebration of her pationel annivergary be- gan with Monday, when the Massachusetts rifle team won the contest at Nunhead and a similar victory each day has fol. lowed without a break. The Philadelphia crick- eters have taken the feld and given good prowess inthe home of the game. Then comes America’s oarsman Psotta and makes bim- self a shining place at Henley, nearly captur- ng the diamond sculls, the great prize of the year and of England. He bas no reason to despair of success in future contests. This display of Americanism in action culminated on the Fourth in the tasteful and popular reception given by Minister Lincoln and the festival over which he presided at Dr. Newman Hall’s church. Rarely has there been such obagrvance of the day in London. Many a year has the occasion passed and been signalized only bythe annual punch atthe Chambers of Albert Wagner, the well-known and patriotic American Counsellor in the Tem- ple. This year the Consulate threw open its hospitable doors. Inside the Legation the flag wasidisplayed conspicuously and in many places throughout Europe it was also con- spicuous. Minister Lincoln at the garden party in honor of the Shah given by the Prince of Wales was congratulated by many of the guests on the recurrence of the day. In Paris the celebration assumed an official form through the participation of President Carnot and members of his Cabinet at the in- auguration of the Statue of Liberty on the Isle De Cygnes. The speeches, including that of the American Minister, were up to the dignity of the occasion. The visit of the Americans tothe tomb of Lafayette, which, until last year, had almost been forgotten, and the fir- ing of a military salute by American soldiers over the grave was a beautiful tribute to the great friend of Americaand of Wash ington, and the reception at the newly oc- cupiled and elegant residence of Minister Reid on the Avenue Hoche fittingly rounded out the ceremonies of the day. Frenchmen them selves took an interest in the anniversary which they have very rerely shown before. All who took part in the festival, from the President down, were as enthusiastic as ir the Fourth of July were a celebration of their own and a prelude to the lath of July. Mgr.

The latter had just come from the East End, and were well armed with clubs, pistols and rocks. At Twentieth avenue, West, they outgeneraled the police by dividing in two sections, one going east and the other The police had been guarding seventy who had preferred not to go atrike, as they were satisfied with wages. The police went west, being attracted by a noise from the larger body of strikers. The other body then slipped around the block and began pum- melling the workingmen with clubs and stop- ped them from working. The police turned back when they saw their mistake, and when they reached the sewer trench, where the men had been work- ing, were fired on by oneof the strikers. They returned a whole volley of shots, whereupon the strikers did likewise. This was kept up by both sides for a full half hour, the strikers firing from behind trench and ~ west. men on their buildings, and the police standing bravely in -themiddie of Michigan street. After awhile Company K, which had been under orders from the Governor since early morn- ing, made its appearance and soon cleared the street.

It was learned late to-night that the strikers made a desperate attempt to kill Joe Wolf of the firm of Wolf & Knox, who has been par- ticularly obnoxious to them. They had caught Wolf while riding m the West End, and began throwing rocks at him. He was hemmed in between a rock on one side and a ditch on the other and the only thing for him todowastojump. He escaped just as the policecameup. His wagon was at once over- turned and demolished by the strikers. OMcer Force is said to have received some serious injuries on his legs by rocks thrown by the strikers. The police ata late hour ar- rested three arch conspirators, C. C. Hendlen Joe Frank and Eric M. Lundbreen, all of whom are guarded in the county jail by Sheriff Shrriey and à large number of depu- ties. Friends of Carlson claim that he had nothing to do with the strike. Capt. McLaughlin aimed at him twice at close range, but his shots did not take effect.

Nine as brave policemen as ever wore a star will car marks ot the encounter to their graves, while probably three times as any of the infuriated mob wil carry bullet marks as mementoes of their aw- fui crime.

GAINESVILLE, Tex., July 6.—At Oklahoma City yesterday evening, about 8 o’clock, a half-dressed girl about 13 years of age franti- cally rushed down a stairway and out into the streets screaming murder. The bewailing shrieks and the half-mad appearance soon brought a number of gentlemen tothe rescue of the crving and frantic child, who when be- ing asked the cause, informed them that she had been forced into the room ofCharies M. Lane, and for two hours had been forcibly compelled to submit to his outrageous conduct which had been horrible. The gentie- men going to her relief took her back up-stairs to get her ciothing, which they found in Lane’s room, though at the time Lane was not in the room. The girl, whose name is Frances Skeed, was soon dressed and taken to her home in South Oklahoma, and ber father, Mr. H. Skeed, upon hearing of the inhuman conduct of Lane, went before United States Commissioner Sommers and swore out a warrant for Lane’s arrest, charging bim with criminal assault upon Frances Skeed, the 18-year-old daughter of the affiant. The warrant was placed in the bands of Deputy United States Marshal Thornton, who found and arrested Lane about 12 0’clock that nicht on Grand avenue and placed him in jail. The little girl who had been so cruelly treated was interviewed, and gave the following detailed account of the hienous crime: THE VICTiIM’S STORY. Lane rode by my father’s house in a buggy Thursday evening about 6 o’clock, halted at the yard fence and asked me to take a drive with him, which I consented todo, as I had met him once before and had a siight acquain- tance with him. After driving about town a while, Lane drove back to the stable and left the rig there, saying we would walk home. As we walked toward my home we came to the Overall block, and Lane told me he had business up-stairs, and asked me to step to the top of the stairs a moment, which I did, not thinking he meant any harm to me. Upon reaching the top of the stairs Lane un- locked a door leading into a room, grabbed me by the arm and jerked me into the room, closed and locked the door, and with drawn revolver told me if I made any noise or resisted him inthe least that he would kill me. I was scared almost to death. Lane then took off my clothesand kept mein the room in that condition for nearly two hours. He treated me as he pleased, and most terribly during the time he had me in his power, and I was afraid to resist. I finally, after piteously begging him for a drink, induced him to go after some water. He left the room and failed to lock mein. As soon as he got out of my sightI rashed from the room down the stairs and into tie street. Ithus escaned him.’’ THREATENED WITH LYNOCHWING. C. M. Lane is probably about 25 years of age and is said to havea wife and one child who reside in Houston, Tex. He is known to many of the newspaper fraternity asa cun- ning andsbrewd solicitor for newspaper ad- vertisements. He worked in this city several weeks soliciting advertisements for the Even- ing Register, having come here from Denison, where he had a shooting scrape a short time before with an editor ofapaper in that town. Parties from the City of Oklahoma state that the people there wereina high state of excitement over the crime, and on the previous night they gathered en masse forthe purpose of taking him out of the jail and swinging him toa flag- pole. They were prevented from doling so by a company of soldiers being called out and placed around the jail where the prisoner was confined, and in order to keep him from an indignant populace the soldiers will hold constant guard over him. The girl who was so brutally treated is reported to be in a critical condition from the effects of the out- rage. Sensational Trial. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. DENVER, Colo., July 6.—Testimony for the State was closed to-day in the case of ex- Lieut. Jas. Connor, and his brother, Charles Connor, late of the Denver police, and James W. Marshall, a Kansas City saloon-keeper, charged with aving conspired to rob a Denver & Rio Grande express car. A motion was then made to have the defendants discharged, but this was overruled and the trial will be resumed Monday. The whole story had its origin with Thiel’s agency at Louis. Samuel J. Holliday, a detective was sent by that agency to Kansas City and Denver to find out who robbed President Moffat of $21,000, and this incident led to the indictment of these parties, but on a different matter. During two weeks Holliday was on the stand, and hie story madea great sensa- tion. In his testimony Holliday shows how he ingratiated himself into the good will of Marshall at Kansas City, who supposed the detective was a crook. Holli- day testified that the two Conners and Marshall were in league together to rob and do up people and that he (Holliday) — a robbery on the Denver 4 Rio rande, hoping that he could get them to produce the man who robbed Moffatt, as a man of that courage would be needed. He failed to get the Moffat robber but the devel- opments made led tothe indictment of per- sons mentioned in the charge of conspiracy. Holliday is the coolest and shrewdest detect- ive on the witness stand ever seen in Denver. This trial is the greatest sensation Denver has had for months. Youthful Criminal Shot Dead.

Pratt accompanied by some twenty- five or thirty business men of the City of St. Louls, called upon the Governor to-day at the Capital and presented a petition for the pardon of said Pratt, who is now under sentence of three years in the pen- itentiary for embezzling funds belonging to the McCormack Machine Co. of St. Louis, and whose sentence was recentiy affirmed by the Supreme Court. Messrs Lodge & Ferris made an able argument in behalf of the pardon of theirclient. The pardon is asked for upon the ground that Pratt did not embezzie the funds, but that it was cone by a confidentia) clerk in his employ, who not long since, when he expected he was about to die, confessed the crime and exonerated Pratt, but since his recovery claims that Pratt and he divided the spoils. Pratt accompanied the parties here and on their return, unattended by the Sheriff The Governor declined to act at present, but has taken the matter under ad- visement untilnext week. It is thought a pardon will be granted. Innocent People Shot Down. Ry Telegranh to the Post-Disratcn. Cargo, III., July 6.—For some time past there has been a deadly rivalry between the owners of two ferry-boats, running between this city and Missouri over the Mississ!ppi River. The feeling has been 80 strong that open fights between them have been frequent, but to- night it led to bloodshed. The colored people ofthe city have a barbecue over the river and were crossing over in large numbers this evening. One party of fifteen or twenty had engaged the Rosalie Smoot, owned by Capt. Oayton, to cross over. The moot was on the opposite sideand the party took the Golconda, owned by Capt. Sickman. The two boats passed in mid-stream, and when opposite each other sowe one on the Smoot opened fire on the Golconda with a Winchester rifle, bringing down two men and one woman among the crowd of passengers. Intense ex- citement prevails among the negroes on the west side of the city. A squad of them have armed themselves with Winchesters and are laying for Capt. Sickman and bis boat threat- éning to kill him and wreck his boat. Plucky Battie With a Burglar. By Telegraph to the POsT-DISPATCH. PARKERSBURG, W.

Bates was awak- ened by feeling the hand of the robber on his face. Instantly grasping the situation, he caught the burgiar’s wrist, when the assassin fired and tried to kill Bates. The ball penetrated Bates’ leg, making aterrible wound. Bates still continued to struggle until the assassin had shot the other five chambers of the pistol, the bullets penetrating the bed and wall, but not injuring Bates, who still held his assailant, and by a super- human effort be succeeded in getting on his feet and forcing the robber to the door, which he hastily sbut and iocked,and then fell fainting tothe foor. When he recovered it was broad daylight, and the robber had dis- appeared.

Sr. PAUL, Minn., July 6.—The crop outiook continues fairly good, though rain is badly needed in many sections, especially in Minne- sota. Fromthe Omaha Raliroad’s crop re- port it would appear that Iowa and Nebraske are in the best condition and the prospects for a full crop of good quality in those States are most reassuring.

In Minnesota the re- orts an * At Rushmore, Luverne, Rock apids, Valley Falls, St. James, Jordan, Bingham Lake, Amboy, and Blue Earth City, wheat is looxing good, small grains are in good shape and corn is doing nicely, but rain is needed to insure a really successful vield. If it should come, the crops as these points will be up to the average. At Adrain, Magnolia, Ash Creek, Beaver Creek, Brandon, Merriam Junction, Vernon Centor, Butterfield, Garden City, Lake Crys- tal and Elmore the crops are suffering to some extent for want of rain, though asa rule some improvement is reported and every- thing 18 oing fairly well. At Worthington, Pipestone and Woodstock a half-crop is all that oun be looked for. Barley is very poor; hay light, but of good quality,and everything is looking dried up through lack of moisture, In Dakota the conditions vary and a fair crop is anticipated if rain comes in time. Witho’ itthe crops will be poor, as a rule. The port covers only that portion of Dako: utary to tne Omaha road. Michigan Crop Bulletin. By Telegraph to the Post-D1sPatTcr.

But President WALBRIDGE of the Council suggested a wise caution when he pro- posed that the creation of another ter- minal monopoly in this city should be avoided. THE newspapers have been filled since the Fourth with reports of accidents, fires and the loss of life and limb, caused by the celebration of the day. Patriotic dem- onstration of the kind in which Amer- icans delight comes high, and it is a serious question whether it is worth the cost. It is a pity that some better method of celebration than the use of deadly and fireestarting explosives cannot be dis- covered, oes ACCORDING to the Times the merchants of Kaneas City are determined to boycott the railroads that haul freight through Kansas City without breaking bulk, and will therefore do all they can to help the C. & A. to compel all roads to break bulk at Kansas City.

Hints That the Kilrain Party Are Angling for Police Interference.

There is, of course, a widespread inter- est in the event, not because the public generally cares one whit whether Sulli- van bests Kilrain or Kilrain bests Sulli- van, but because there is inherent in men and women an admiration of physical prowess and of mere brute courage, although exhibited in a repulsive way. The element of skill and endurance also enters the contest and they attract always the attention of intelligent people. But beyond these general points there are particulars which give to the fight unusual importance. In one sense it has an international character in that while both men are American born, yet one is trained according to the best methods known on this side of the water, and the other is trained after the most approved English methods. Muldoon, who is about the finest specimen of manhood in this country and a trained, intelligent athlete, has devoted himself to bringing Sullivan to the highest condition of physical per- fection possible under the ci rcumstances. He has had in his work the best available scientific guardian. Kilrain, on the other hand, has been coached according to the English rules by Mitchell who is acknowl- edged to be the cleverest of English boxers; who bas met Sullivan and knows his methods thoroughly. Thus English r s are pitted against American Again. the difference in the methods of training and fighting presents an interest- ing question for consideration. Sullivan has been trained fine.“ He has been worked under rigid rules as to amount and kind of exercise and food. He has not worked according to inclination, but under se- vere control and discipline. Kilrain is said to have largely followed his inclina- tions in work and diet. Sullivan isa quick, strong, rushing fighter, and Kil- . rain, if he follows Mitchell’s tactics, will play a waiting game. Lastly, the merits of the men will be foregoing qualifications. Sullivan has heen considered the best living pugilist, srecently been ill and has injured f by dissipation. Kilrain has not nuch reputation by actual deeds, admitted to be a strong, able man is taken good care of himself. ecide any of these points the fight de square, fair and to a finish. Any- else will be a contemptible farce, “ty of notice. “graph to the POST-DIAPATCRH. EW OR N LEANS, La., July 6.—For a second time in a week this city is flooded.

DISPATCH correspondent was assured by one high up in sporting affairs, who knows where- of he epeaks, that the fight would not take place. Both Charles Mitchell and R. K. Fox are working Kilrain, while Mitchell bas a pull on Fox. Kilrain is honest enough in the affair but is being sacrificed. The policies of the two parties are widely different. SULLIVAN I8 CONFIDENT, and eager for the fray seeking seculsion and and working hard to repay the John L. Sullivan. ‘the Kilrain contingent are hippodroming him at swimming watches and sparring houts for theirown aggrandizement. The placards and posters are more Richard K. Fox and his publication than Sullivan and Kilrain. Loud and strong are the kicks made by local people that the printing was not done here. To show clearly the teeling of the masses, odds are freely offered on Sullivan, with no takers, of $1,000 to $800, and even two to onc, and the bets go begging. To give color to the story that Kilrain’s backers do not want a fight they have declared their unwillingness to afford the Western Union Telegraph Co. proper facilities for running their wires to the grounds. The Governor and Adjutant-General have ordered out the militia. A circular has been distributed by the Governor quoting the statue on the disturbance of the peace, which he says coversthefight. Mississippi’s Gov- ernor offers $1,000 reward for either principal arrested by officer or civilian in the ring. The universal desire expressed is to see Sullivan the victor. Everywhere in the shops and stores, at the clubs,in the hotels and wherever two men meet the all-absorbing topicis the fight. No event in the recollection of any one interviewed has produced sO much excitement. SULLIVAN ARRIVED THURSDAY and was quickly driven fromthe train to a private house on Rampart street, where he 1s domiciled with Muldoon, Cleary and a few very intimate friends. Across the street are the palatial quarters of the Young Men’s Gymnastic Club, where he 1s prac- ticing. Muldoon never leaves him a moment and deserves credit for Jake Kilrain. the exceilent condition into brought the mighty gladiator, both physically which he has and mentally. It has been said that Sullivan could not be trained because he was uncon- troliable. Muldoon has proved that a fallacy. Sullivan is tractable, good-humored, con- trolling his appetite and obeying his train- ing rules like a child. Sullivan acts ter- ribly in earnest in the matter, seeming to thoroughly realize how much is at stake. If he wins the whole stake it will be his, as more than the money is behind the feeling of his backers, who are not letting slip the memory of the dirty trick that wasserved them in the Smith and Kilrain fight. If the men meet, at the ring side there will be fair play. The de- termination to give no favor acthates every body. To quote the opinions of those who know, if any person does, the Bantam says: Sullivan can whip Jake Kilrain to a dead moral certainty. At any rate and, bar accident, John should win.’’ Bat Galvin was always a Sullivan admirer and since his arrival is more impressed than ever with his condition. Sullivan weighs 202 pounds and will not lose any more. AT HIS EXERCISE. Friday he jumped 1,074 times with the rope, his sweat producing less than an ounce of de- crease in weight. He ig drinking nothing but ale, and thatonly moderately. The Kilrain party was met at Chattanooga by Mr. Garrett, the agent of the Queen & Crescent route. At York, Ala., the party was met by a special engine in charge of Supt. Tyler at (a. m. Only two stops were made in Mississippi, and then for water. At Pear] River the party was met by the delegates from this city with the advance guard, who have been here making the arrangements, Messrs. Harding, Stevenson and representa- tives of the Soutnern Athletic Club. Upon reaching the city at 10:30 this morning they were immediately conveyed in carriages to the quarters of the Southern Athletic Club and the courtesies of the elub were extended to Kilrain and trainers. After being presented with a floral offering, a horse shoe and crescent, Jake made a short speech, thanking the club for favors, and saying: ‘‘I want only a fair field, and shali do my best to win. Kllrain looks well and feels confident, yet his trainers and backers impress one as not feeling the same amount of confidence intheir man. Now that both principals are here, the question inter- esting every one is, How to get to the fight? BUD RENAUD, who has charge of the arrangements for transportation, is very reticent about his in- tentions for the accommodation of the press representatives. He announces hie intentions to have the tickets for those who have filed applications ready by Sunday morning. His manner is unsatisfactory, however, to the re- porters and correspondents. Dominick McCaffery, Billy Madden and the Fox contingency arrived at noon and are quartered at the St. Charles Hotel. Kilrain and his trainers ate dinner at Moreau's, the | lay will occur atthe meeting place in select- party occupied one of the boxes. The theater was crowded to the doors. The admission was $1 and reserved seats $2. It ie given out that Cleary will be one of Sul- livan’s seconds. Muldoon, although a good. General, never was associated at the ring side asa second or participant, yet his ad - mirable CONTROL OF SULLIVAN, would make hima strong help to the cham- pion in the battle. Immense crowds watch inoessantly any place where either of the con- testants js supposed to be. On account of the flood this morning the streets are covered with water. Sullivan did not visit the club quarters. At8o’clock, accompanied by Mul- doon and Cleary, the big one visited the gym- nasium and went through his usual exercise. The tip now given by the managers is that those holding tickets shall assemble at 1 a. m. Monday. The opinion of many is that a de- ing the referee. Perhaps never in the history of prize-fighting has so much interest been excited in the minds of THE RESPECTABLE ELEMENT as the coming one, yeta very tough elemeat has invaded the city, which may mean a good deal when the fight ison. To showto what height the excitement has reached an Instance may be cited. A wealthy and respectable business man desired to meet Sullivan. To do so he secured the services of Chief of Police David Hennessey, and together they called at Sullivan’s headquarters, dut he was at the gymnasium practising. Word was sent him thatthe Chief wanted to see him. This gave rise to the rumor of police interference. He was quickly dressed and, after a glass of ale, returned to his room and met the Chief, who presented THE GREAT FIGHTER to the merchant. In conversation Cleary says he will fight Mitchell any way and for any money, and he means it. Dominick McCaffery had charge of the ez- cursion train accompanying Kilrain, All the Eastern and Northern journals have repre- sentatives here, besides the press associa- tions. Kilrain has made a good impression on many who think Sullivan has no easy thing before him. The various excursion trains will consist of at least thirty-five cars, which will leave New Orleans at 1 and 2 o'clock Monday morning. No announcement will be made as to where the site willbe. The same stakes and ropes will be used and the ring made by Flynn, who did the work for the Sullivan-Ryan fight. Twenty-five hundred tickets have been sold. The telegraphic facilities will be meager from the grounds. It is expected the fight will be concluded and the party return to the city by 4o’clock. Bets are freely offered that the fight will be SETTLED BY SULLIVAN in thirty minutes. No money is being wagered. The doubt grows strong that the fight may not take place. It is liable that the press may have to pay for the transportation. The management is con- demned for its work. The St. Louis and Chi- cago excursions arrived to-night. Everybody is waiting developments. Very late inside in- side information says the fight will take place according to programme and without a fluke. The fight will take place in Louisiana. It will not be molested by the authorities. There are only 100 available troops in the State and they are insympathny with the participants. It is considered only A RESPECTABLE BLUFF Governor catering to the society The rumor of a of the element to gain prestige. change of programme is a canard. The Mississippi border is overrun with militia. The fight will take place in Loulslana. Inasmuch as the manage- ment will not divulge the meeting place, the Western Union has decided to close all inter- mediate offices, and all matter for the press must be filed at New Orleans. Seen by Another Correspondent. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCH. NEW ORLEANS, La., July 6.—All the silly ru- mors hatched by sensation fakirs that Kilrain was to have himself arrested en route were dispelied when the special car containing Sullivan’s opponent rolled into the Queen & Crescent Station this morning at II o’clock, The overenthusiastic supporters of Sullivan, who were offering to bet yes- terday that Kilrain would never show his face in New Orieans in time to fight were obliged to craw! into avery small hole. It was the first bad break they had made and they felt rather cheap over it. There was not the slightest doubt that Kilrain was in town. He came, heralded by A BRASS BAND. The hour of his coming had been announced, and when he got here he showed himself to the crowd at the depot for five minutes. Four carriages were in waiting. Into the first one jumped Kilrain, Mike Donovan, Charlie Mitchell and President 8. H. Wolmsley of the Southern Athletic Ciub. Frank Stevenson, ‘*Pony’’ Moore, Johnny Murphy of Boston and Dr. Doherty of Philadelphia took the second carriage, and the remaining two were occupied by members of the clnb, whose guest the pugilist will be during his short stay in the South. The win- dows of the carriages were wide open and there was no attempt at concealment. In fact every movement made wa#for the one pur - pose ot proving that KILRAIN HAD NOT FLUNKED, but was on hand ready to fulfil his part of the contract. The four car- riages were driven at a moderte gait to the rooms of the olub on Prytanea street. Kilrain alighted, was shown through the house and then went toa private Doarding-house next door, where a — ot apartments had deen prepared tor im. He appeared in good spirits and not at all wearied by his trip. His face looked just a trifle pale, and the lines of the jaw sharply drawn, or, in pugilistic parlance, just a shade too fine.’’ The trip across the State of Mississippi was exciting and full of interesting incidente. Kilrain was much put out wheh he read the stories about his drink- ing heavily in Cincinnati, but he became ab. solutely angry when he came across the New York fake that he intended to HAVE HIMSELF ARRESTED to prevent the fight from taking piace, and he declared that he would spend every penny he possessed, if necessary to prove the falsity of the state- swell restaurant. Afterwardsthe re party was taken to the West End to w' .swim- ming match, Charlie Mitchel! as the referees. At the St. Charles venefit tohell 4 n van party had done, and trust to luck and the engineer. When the train with, Kilrain in a special car and the Baltimore and Cincinnati delegations in the other coaches, pulled outof the depot at Cincinnati a MAN WITH A CORK LEG got on board. He was not recognized at first, but a Cincinnati man walking through the car discovered him to be John T. Norris, a well- known Western detective. *‘Hello, Norris,’’ was the greeting, ‘‘where are you bound?’’ ‘*To Lexington to make an arrest, was the reply. The man who made the inquiry walked on and forgot the incident. About twenty miles south of Lexington he walked through again and was surprised to see Norris still on board. 1 thought you were going to get off at Lexington?’’ remarked the Cincinnati man. I was joking,’’ 1e turned the detective. ‘‘lam going on down to New Orleans to get a couple of crooks. Five minutes later every man in that car was in a decidedly uneasy frame of mind. Mitchell and Pony Moore were communicated with, and they immedi- ately concluded that Norris was on board for the purpose of arresting Kilrain the moment the train entered the much-feared State and deliver up his prisoner in the hope of a re- ward. Kilrain broke into A COLD SWEAT, Pony“ Moore became excited and voluble, and Mitchell worked himself up into rage. If Norris was abroad for that purpose, they argued, the Sullivan people could never be made to believe that it was not all a put up job and that Norris had been employed PY] 4 part of the scheme. Despair seized them all and“ Pony Moore looked as though he wanted to jump outofthe window. Meanwhile the detective had become friendly with the men in the car and was astonishing them with some thrilling stories of his experiences. He had a couple of pairs of HANDCUFFS WITH HIM and showed his deftness in slipping them over the wrists of the passengers. Then he aston- ished the crowd by a remarkable exhibition. He opened the car window about the width of a lead pencil, and, drawing his re- volver, fired through the narrow space, just grazing the sash sufficiently to show the passage of the bullet. The feat was repeated and then a penholder was thrown inthe air and struck bya ball from Norris’ revolver. When Kilrain and Mitchell heard of these things they were more firmly convinced than ever that an arrest was intended. „The jig is up. Iam afraid,’’ said *‘Pony’’ Moore mournfully. ‘*Heis showing just how nicely he could shoot a man who attempted to escape. „Tes, said Mitchell, and there's the bloomin’ darkies besides. It's a bieedin’ shame. The train was spinning along at forty miles an hour, and the bated territory was getting nearer and nearer. Everybody was glum. Norris was looked upon witn hatred and disgust. Finally one of the party PLUCKED UP COURAGE sufficient to ask him where he intended to take Kilrain off the train. Then it was the de- tective’s turn to get angry. He declared that he was not engaged in any such business; that he had too large an acquaintance with sporting men to perform such an action, and that his trip South was for the purpose of arresting thieves in New Orleans and nothing else. In proof of this he exhibited the requi- sition papers. There was a wild cheer from the crowd when Norris made this explanation. Hands that would have will- ingly thrown him from the train were thrust out in friendly fashion. The good news soon reached Kilrain. The scowl left his face and he smiled. ‘‘Pony’’ Moore threw up his hat and shouted. Norris instantly became the lion of the hour and showed his sincerity by centering heartily into a consulta- tion as to how the Mississippians might be best outwitted. It had been previously learned thatthe most probable point where capture would be attempted would be at Me- ridian. A SECRET CONFERENCE washad with the engineer, the result of which was that he nodded his head inassent and grimly clutched the throttle. When Chattanooga was reached the train stopped and Special Railroad Detective Guffen was taken on board. He was taken into the confidence of the party, the situation ex- plained to him and then the pian of action was decided upon. At Yorke,’ the station on the State line, the special car was detached and coupled to the engine aione. All the passengers except Kilrain, Moore, Mitchell, Dr. Doherty, a Post-DISPATCH re- porter and three other newspaper men retired to the other cars. It was then agreed that the special should MAKE NO STOPS except for water, and that at ont-of-the- way places where there would beonly a re- mote chance of capture. The engine tooted a shrill note of defiance, the throttle was thrown wide open and the special dashed across the line into the State of Mississippi, The situation was supposed to be desperate and it was resolved to adopt DESPERATE MEASURES. Triffin is known as one of the most coura- geous men in the South. He is absolutely without fear and when he said that Kilrain should never be nniawfully taken, the people in the car knew that he meant it. When the train was within about ten miles of Meridian he took out of his pocket a big ro- volver and stationed himself at the door of the car. Norris, the dead shot, did likewise. The engineer had been pre- viously instructed to pass the Meridean sta- tion at full speed and not to stop unless flagged by a danger signal. If this happened the programme was to be as follows: A demand forthe production of Kilrain was to be met bythe reply that he was not on board but was on the regular train which was following twenty miles behind. If this sub- terfuge did not succeed and the Sheriff and his posse insisted on a #£ search, then they were to be asked to produce their authorit wbo haa — be ovens atk Should this fail of the result the Sheriff and his force were to be asked to retire, and this falling as a last resort the revolvers were to be brought Into play and the Mississippians driven out forcl- diy, and, if necessary, with some COLD LEAD IN THEIR BODIES. Away sped the train, | cerned in the distance. Day was just break- ing. No danger signal could be seen. There was a crowd of men on the platform and one of them threw up one arm and waved it. Faster flew the special, she seemed fairly leaping, the piston rods were working like lightning. In another moment the town of Meridian was passed like a flash and in the dim distance could be seen a man running rapidly down the track. This was Sheriff Anderson whose PREY HAD ESCAPED. New Orleans went fairly mad to-day. The streets were thronged as they have not been for years. A great mass of people surged about the entrance to the St. Charles hotel and in all the saloons where sports congregate. There was arevival of interest in Kilrain and the strong Sullivan sentiments which have existed since Thursday gradually became divided. Although there was a surging mass of people in front (f Sullivan’s boarding- house thatnever seemed to move, there was an equally large throng in front of the Southern Athletic Club’s quarters. Kil- rain came out and showed himself sev- eral times and was cheered lustily. He bowed his acknowledgements, and then Charlie Mitchell came in fora milder ovation. At? o’clock, after takingashave, a bath and a rub- down, Kilrain came out of the club with his father-in-law and Mitchell. Entering a carriage, they were driven to Mooreau’s, where THE PARTY DINED. The sidewalk was impassable while the pugiliste remained in-doors, and the couple of policemen, who had never had to deal with a big crowd before, became nervous in their endeavors to keep an open passage. After dinner, Kilrain returned to the club and was joined by Mike Donovan, who was begged to exhibit his skill. He sparred three hot rounds with Emil Moise. Then Charlie Mitchell stripped and had a bout with another member. Kilrain looked on and laughed heartily when one of the gentiemen made an awkward feint. Dominick McCaffrey, witha numberof oth- ers arrived to-day. McCaffrey was in the club-rooms when the sparring was going on, and was asked to havea go with Donovan, but he laughingly declined, on the plea that he would melt. THE BIG FELLOW had a quiet and uneventful day. There was a heavy down-pour of rain here this morning, beginning at 5 o’ clock and lasting until about 10, The street in front of Sullivan’s boarding- house was flooded and he could not cross without making a wide detour and encounter- ing the crowds, for which he seems to have more aversion than ever. The street drained off about noon, and the three inseparables, Muldoon, Cleary and Sullivan, made their way over to the club-house. They remained there for three hours, going through the usual daily routine of punching the bag, putting the shotand skipping the rope. As on the previous days no one was permitted to enter the room while the giant was exercising. At4o’clock he was in a profuse perspiration, and after his bath became as SKITTISH AS A KITTEN. Then he got sleep, and after getting home threw himself on the bed and was soon snor- ing like a steam engine. At 7 o’clook he got up, dressed himself, ate alight supper and lolled around for an hour. Then he went tothe Young Men’s Gymnastic Club, where an informal reception had been arranged in his honor. Sullivan’s voice seemed deeper and gruffer than ever, as he ac- knowledged the various introductions. After repeating his stock ‘‘One and all’’ speech he said good-night and went home, and at 10 was sound asleep. POOL SELLING on the fight was begun at, Lamothe's to- night. Only half a dozen pools were sold, The highest bet made was $150 to $75 on Sulli- van, and the lowest $50 to $25. Very little money is being put up outside of Lamothe’s. Wm. E. Harding has not put up a cent. Dan Murphy asked him last night if he wanted to wager a hundred on Kilrain, and Harding replied that henever bet on anything but horse races. i A SunNDAY PoSsT- DISPATCH corréespond- ent has it from the dest authority that, inspite ofall rumors to the contrary, the fight will positively come off Monday, as provided for in the articles of agreement. There will be no hitch and no interference so far as is known now. Nevertheless, not a living soul can tell just what GEORGE NICHOLS intends to do, He courteously but in the firm- est manner possibile declined to say a single word about the figat orto giye the slightest hint of his plans, if he has any. A good deal of ill feeling has been excited among the local sports by the employment of Capt. Tom Jamieson and his Meridian Rangers. The people here, who are particularly sensi- tive about such matters, say it is an insult to bring men from another State to make Loulsianians behave themselves. It is just barely possible that the rang- ers may fina themselves in a decidedly uncomfortable position before the fight is over. The order to carry Winchester rifles has been modified and the twenty guards will be armed with 44-caliberrevolvers. Capt. Jamieson himself will carry two revolvers, one 38 bore and the other 44. From a Kilrain Standpoint. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPpaTcu. Nuw YORK, July 6.—The following expres- sion of opinion was given to the SUNDAY Post- DISPATCH correspondent by an admirer of Kilrain, who takes no pains to conceal his preference for the Baltimorean: ‘If ever the sun stood at a battle he certainly day next, for between the hours of 8and 11 in the forenoon of that day, at some quiet spot a good deal less than a hundred miles from the city of New Orleans, what promises to be the greatest battle of fistiana will take place. In- terest inthe great $20,000 = fight between Kilrain and Sullivan, or Sullivan and Kilrain, which you will, might be compared to the touching off and flight of a great skyrocket.

The twos ng pa mos ana * Red the nie dis oe ate of the final . and with a kick and a roar the firework started on ite flight. The telegraph wires all over the country are now buzzing with its scream, but Monday they will be red bot with wonderful stories of the culmination. It takes a great deal to get up a real CRAZE AMONG SPORTS in this country, but when they want to see & thing they generally do it. „New Orleans is to-day the biggest sporting city in the world. Not only is every prow!l- nent sport, from Maine to California, from Florida to Oregon, there, but thousands of well-to-do gentlemen you would never sus- pect of being ring-goers, are there too. The up-town clubs, the Stock Exchange and many down-town offices lack their full quotas now. Many a quiet home is wondering just now how papa or uncle or brother is enjoying that Adirondacks vacation he talked of before starting away last Sunday night, or Wednes- day or Thursday morning in that peculiar, feverish, hang dog sortof way. Excitement is at the bursting point. Do vod remember that ‘Run of Luck?’ My social experience for the past fortnight has been something like that ot the owner of the racing stable in this place who visited a country parsoa’s family. You know how everybody, from the parson and his wjfe and his son and his daugh- ter down to the cook and her little boy besieged the horseman for tips on the Cesar Witch. Well, I couldn’t even get swindled at a churon fair last week without being asked in feminine accent which Ithought, Mr. Sullivan or Mr. Rilrain, was going to get knocked out. Ik ever the chances of a prize battle were carefully canvassed, those of this one are. SULLIVAN'S FRIENDS whom I have taiked with, Jimmy Wakeley, Charlie Jounson, Billy Lynch, Big Leonard Tracey, Jack Barrett, Arthur Lumley, Joe Coburn, Mike Coburn and plenty more, bave told me thatJ ohn L. will lick Kilrain quick. ‘Why, he’ll go right in and smash the life out of him,’ says Tracy. ‘You'll see Kil- rain come down about two feet when he sees Sullivan in the ring with him,’ is Joe Co- burn’s idea of it. Ifind the enthusiasts, on account of Kilrain’s affiliation with Charlie Mitchell, on the Sullivan side of the fence. I cannot believe that Joe Coburn, whose speed and skili are thought by many to equal Jem Mace’s, really thinks Sullivan can beat Kil- rain. I think Coburn is a Suilivanite be- cause there is something in it on this side for him. Billy Madden, Bill Edwards und the pug ilistic clu ot the Hoffman House Cafe, which so seldom makes a mistake; Dominick McCaffrey, Dr. Thompson of Pittsburg, almost all the good judges Iam acquainted with, particularly * I know to be unprejudiced, say Kilrain an ONLY KILRAIN. **Oharlie Mitchell, ho has more brains than any Oghter I know of, is the most confident manlever saw. Sam Bryant’s ‘knowing’ Proctor Knott would win last year’s junior championship and the Futurity were nothing beside Charlie Mitchell’s ‘can’t lose’ and ‘finding mouey’ predictions. Smiling Johnny Kelly, the Dwyer henchman, told me at the Rancho de Paso sale of yearlings at Hunter’s Point the other day, that when Mitchell was down at Sheepshead Bay last week he gave himtwo winners. Coming home from the races Mitchell said: ‘Now you’ve been very good to me, given me two good things, and Iwantto give you some- thing sure. This is a copper - bound, lead-pipe cinch: Back Kilrain to beat Sullivan.’ The biggest betting Iknowof was a rumored offer of Mr. Phillip Dwyer’s to back Sullivan for $25,000. Mr. Dwyer denied this to me, though he said he thought Sullivan could win if in the form he displayed few years ago. Perhaps as good an argument of the coming fight as any is Frank Stevenson’s. ‘I dropped Sullivan,’ said Stevenson, ‘after he failed to beat Mitchell under London rules. I know that John L. Sullivan is the greatest Marquis of Queensberry fighter the worid has ever seen. No man living can beat him a four- round five-ounce glove contest, but where Sullivan will find he is out of his depths isin a eontest under London prize-ring rules, where pees and staying powers count most. have watched Kilrain and think that he is the greatest of ring tacticians. Jake is a good ducker and a very shifty man. He nas a terrific right and frightful left, and is as skill- ful in getting away from punishment as giv- ing it. He fights a great deal like Jack Demp- sey, being satisfied with giving his adversary a little punishment at a time, so that he keeps giving it to him and avoids receiving any. I think this is the PAR EXCELLENCE OF PUGILISM. No matter if each of your blows only tells a little, if you keep getting them in and your opponent does not get on to you you are pretty certain to win, while can’t get worse than a draw on account of darkness. You remember I told you that Dempsey’s lighter, bat more frequent, left-hand blows would be too much for the Marine, and I said that Kilrain and Jem Smith would be another Dempsey and Marine affair. I was right both times, but Kilrain dian’t have quite time enough to finish his man.’ It is all very easy to figure out the defeat of John Lawrence Sullivan, but so far Sallivan has shown himself a man of wonderful strength and r recuperat ve pow ers. Beyond the pale of all hygienic and train- ing rules he is liable in a round to upset ail reasoning, all logie. Scenes and Incidents. NEW ORLEANS, La., July 6.—Nine of the vis- iting sports and nearly all the sporting men are at the St. Charles. The scenes in and around there were very animated. Most of the guests are pugil- ists from all parts of the country, and sporting men who have never missed a fight during the last fifteen years. Opinions are freely expressed as to the outcome of the fight. Straw hats, checked suits, russet shoes and flannel shirts are the prevaling costumes of those gentry and not a few show evidence of my whew — 1 ata in a ‘‘scrap’’ of some kind in their time. —— A big crowd is expected to- mor · row. The fret train for the , — is expected to leave about 1 o’clock Monday morning. It will be followed one hour later by another train containing the spectators. Both pugtlists are ex to enter the ring det ween 6and8 o’clock. Sullivan continues A HOT FAVORITE, and the general impression is that barring chance he will win. Up to to-day Sullivan had everything his own way, as far as public opinion went, and it was ho by Kilrain’s friends that his arrival would cause a chan in his favor, but this does not appear to the case to-night. It is almost wholly Sulli- ley Station the * ot the 1 Aan Ath- Stevenson, Wm K. Donovan, severai were introduced har Mitchell. Cordial reetings were exchanged between the part- es.

KILRAIN DOING THE TOWN. Kilrain witnessed a swimming mateh this afternoon at the West End betweentwo Inca ) aquatic rivais,and afterward put in a halt hour in exercisin with dumb bells, and Indian clubs and punch. ing the beg. His demonstrations in tig latter particular were puny compared with those of Suilivan, andthe opinion was freely expressed by several of the spectators that uniess he showed upto better advantage on Monday the Boston boy’s punishment would be less than nominal. At 10 o clock Sullivan is in bed while Kilrain was, in a box at the st. Charles Theater. Sullivan’s backers are determined tnat there shal! be no obstacles on their part in tie way ofthe two men coming together. The de. mand made by the Kilrain men this afternoon that Sullivan be required to put in an appear. ance at any point designated besides the loca. tion already located was agreed to, Muidoon saying bis man would meet Kilrain in aswamp orinaparior. The other side had nothing more tosay. There were numerous arrivals on the incoming trains to-day, and more than half of the States are represented among the visitors, CHARLEY MITCHELL, in talking to a United Press reporter to-night, said: ‘‘Kilrain is in splendid condition, He weighs 200 pounds, is 45 incnes around the chest and sixteen inches ronnd the biceps.’’ Mitchell thinks there is a good chance of Kil. rein whipping Sullivan. When asked whether he had seen the statement that Mike Cleary would fight him in the same ring as that in which SulltVvan and Kilrain met on Monday stated he had, but that he had made up his mind to never again appear in the ring as a principal and he would not enter the ring again. He declared that Cleary would not have challenged him if he had not Known of his determination. Cleary, he said, should remember that he had twice met him in the ring and that on boty occasions he (Mitchell) bad knocked him out. OPINIONS EXPRESSED. Dr. Dougherty of Philadelphia, Kilrain’s physician, said that Kilrain was in good con- dition and that there was no reason why he should not win, John Murphy, bottle-holder for Kilrain, de- clared that he saw no reosonwhy Kilrain should not win. He asserted that hilrain was stronger, had a longer reach, and better wind than Sullivan, and was every bit as clever, If Mitchell stood before Sullivan for three hours and fifteen minutes he saw no reason why Kilrain should not — 4 Sullivan. Dominick McCaffrey said he had come here to represent a New York poper and was indif- ferent as to the result. e would make an unbiased report of the fight, and refuses to express an opinion asto the probable result, Billy Madden said he considered Sullivana game man. He had not a dollar on tle re- suit. Kilrain was an artist and a good g ter. He had a man—Jack Ashton—whom he would back acainst the winner of the fight. A local physician who witnessed Kilrain ex- ercise to-day sald: ‘*‘I] am very much disap- pointed. The man looks tired and over trained.’’ There is much conflict of opinion as to Kilrain’s weight. Many ciaim that in bis present condition he does not weigh over 185. Otners, among them Mitchell, claim that he weighs over 200. Ata prominent pot room oo 2 to 1 was bet that Sullivan would win. KILRAIN MAKES A SPEECH. At the St. Charles Theater to-night a benefit was tendered to Prof. Mike Donovan of New York. Among the audience were Jake Kilrain, Charles Mitchell, ‘‘Puny’* Moore, Mr. Forrester of Paffalo and Mr. Masterson of Denver. Three cheers for Kilrain was pro- posed which were given with a will, fullowed by three rousing cheérsfor Sulisvananda tiger for Mitchell. The wind up of the entertainment was a four round sparrin match between Dona- van and Mitchell, in which the English boxer showed to zood advantage. On Krain being called for he appeared on the stage and spoke as follows: ‘‘I thank you for your kind eg gor to myselfand party this evening, and Iwill not detain you with aspeech, but are bid you ail good night. At 10:4 tue Kilraln party retired for the night. HEAT KNOCKING SULLIVAN ODT. Snilivan expressed his pleasure this morn- ing that the fight was on forty-eight hours off. The intense heat and lack of walking ex- ercise are tellin on him and Mul- doon admite that if State inter- ference should prevent the fight taking place for several days, it would become neces: sary to take the champion to Biloxi! or some other watering- place on the const, where tne heat would be tempered with salt Dreezes and pedestrian exercise be possible.

A Brief History of the Great Battles of th Arena. 8 By Telegravh to the Posr-Drara ron. NEW YORK, July 6.—One of the leading figures im the foreground of Hogarth’s cele- brated picture of the Southwark Fair’’ isa prize fighter or bully challenging the crowd to do battle with him for money. love or a belly full.’* It is a caricature of the famous James Fig, who enjoys the distinction in the annals of the rine of having been the first champion of England. His reputation as fighter and fencer became so great that in 1719 he opened an establishment in London called Fig’s Amphitheater. It was a rude age and the plaee became at once a popular resort, men of all classes and conditions of life frequenting it as spectators of the eparring exhibitions aid desperate combats that were fought within ite walls. It was patronized bya large section of the ‘*nobility’’ of the day, and a bistory of the „events“ that occurred there was published and dedicated, by permission, to one of the foremost Dukes of England. Fig’s fame as a fighter declinedin time and about 1730 the „best men in England’’ rejoiced in the names of Pipes and Greeting. They were both champions. FIG’S AMPHITHBATER, however, continued to flourish. Andrew Johnson was the proprietor of a rival temple of pugilism, and he, too, counted among bis atronsa large number ot England's heredl- ary legislators. Indeed, a prince of the blood smiled upon him, namely, that Prince Fred- erick who is known In history as the father of the Third George. In the royal line of British champions George Taylor followed the re- nowned Pipes and Greeting, and then came Jack Broughton. Broughton’s reign was in many respects an era of reform. He stripped boxing of a good deal of the dar- barism that had characterized it, intro- duced more science and regularity’’ and in fact elevated pugilism several degrees in the social scale. Broughton's code of rules rigorously prohibited ‘‘gouging,’’ the scien- tific term for putting out the eye of an antag- onist with the thumb; ‘‘purring,’’ which meant kicking a man while be was down with nailed shoes; striking in vital spots below the waistband, and seizing a man when on his knees and pounding him to death. All these outrageous practices were allowable“ before Broughton’s advent to the head of the pro- tession. In BROUGHTON’S NEW AMPHITHEATER, opened in 1743, these new regulations were enforced and in a little while they w®re adopted all over England. There also were seen for the first time gloves, or mufflers, an- other humane innovation. The reformation thus effected has earned for Broughton the title ol“ 'The Father of the Science of the Art of Self-Defense.’’ The celebrated Duke of Cumberland, who fought at Colloden, was Broughton's patron-in-chief. The Duke on one occasion took Broughton with him on the Continent. At Berlin he asked the fighter’s Great’s famous opinion of Frederick the regimentof grenadiers. Broughton replied: ‘“‘Why, your royal highness, I should have no objection to fight the whole regiment, only be kind enough to allow mea breakfast between each battle. During more than halt a generation Broughton held the championsbip, W all who tried their skill with him. At last in April, 1750, he met an antagonist named Stack, who suo- ceeded in biinding him in fourteen minutes. The Duke of Cumberland was present at tbe battle. He shouted to his tavorite, What are you doing, Broughton? You can’t fight; you are beaten.’’ Broughton re- sponded: 1 can’t see my man, Highness; only let me Bee man and he shall not gain the day yet. The Duke was 80 angry with Broughton that he withdrew his aap ort from him and he never foucht again. e £10,000 which the Duke of Cumberland lost on the fight satisfied him with the ring for seve- ral years, but his admiration for tune fancy“ overcame his discretion, and he began to back Stack, who was now champion. he Duke of York, one of the uncles of George III., backed Bill Stevens against Cumberland’s pro- tege. He won and the Duke Faking up the prize ring and prize-üght ers forever. The career of Stevens as champion came to an end in disgrace. He was beaten or allowed himself to be beaten. by Turner. Then came Edward Hunt, a pupil of Broughton, Bill Darts, Harry Sellers, Stephen Oliver, who had the ominous nick- name of Death; Tom Johnson and Benja- min Bren, or as he was called“ Big Ben, who rejoiced in the patronage of the Duke of Hamilton. THE ADVENT OF MENDOZA marks the beginning of what the historians of the ring call the second era of the science.“ Like Broughton, Mendoza, a Lon don Hebrew of Portuguese descent, was a good deal of 4 reformer. He was well educated, and endeavored in every way possibie to refine and humanize the contests of the ring. Pugilistic history says that be was a natural genius in the use of his fists, and it ia believed that he was the most scientific boxer that ever lived. His great contemporary and rival was Humphrey, who was called the gentleman bozer, and who gave Mendoza bis first lessons. Prize fighting at this period had risen to the dignity of being called the old national game’’ of England. From the throne down it was fashionable to ize its professors and encourage the expounders of the ecience. A fight bo- tween Humphreys and Martin, the — nto butcher, In 1786, threw the whole count a state of the wildest excitement, and when it came off the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, the Duke of Orleans, and a large num- ber ofthe French nobility then in England were present. The immense sum, for that day, of £40,000 hung on the result. Martin was beaten. The next great — was between Humphreys and Mendoza. The match was for 400 guineas and was fought on 2 24- foot stage in a paddock at Oldham January 9. 1788. The public interest inthe contest was even greaterthan in the Martin fight, and it was witnessed by at least a guorum of the House of Lords.

The Pugilists’ Club, which had been started some years before, was at this time in a flour- ishing condition. Among its members were the Dukes of York and Olarance the Duke of Queensberry, the Earl of Albmarle, the Earl of Sefton, the Marquis of Worcester, Sir W. W. Wynne, the Marquis of Tweedale, Lords Byron, Craven, Somerville, Barrymore, Pom - fret and Fife and scores of others no less dis- guished. The object of the club was to pro- mote the“ development of muscle, on which they believed the fate of the monarchy de- pended. The club had a uniform, consisting of blue coat and yellow Kerseymere waistcoat with the letters P. ©. on the buttons. The Princes of the blood and the aristocratic ‘*props to the throne’’ backed the fighters in the ring, helped them when in difficulty and honored them when they had knocked out their men. In May, 1814, the club gave a great banquet at which Prize Fighters Jackson, Oribb, Gully, Belcher, Oliver and others were the honored guests. Lord Yarmouth, who was afterwards Marquis of Harford, made a speech in which he eloquently enlarged on the national advantages of — and pugilists. 1 mind be considered as the golden age of e ring. ROYAL PATRONS. Just before the escape of Bonaparte from Elba,the Emperor of Russia, the King of Prus sia and many other leading Continental digni- taries were on a visit to the Prince Regent. They were anxious to see a boxing match, and Lord Lowther was introduced with the important duty of arranging the affair. He assaulted a number of flghters at his London house and the Emperor of all the Russias, ac- companied by Gens. Platoff and Blucher, went tosee the performance. They were so de- lighted thatthe exhibition was repeated for the benefitofthe King of Prussia, and his son, the Prince of Mecklenburg, and other rulers by divine right. Later on the Prince of Orange and his two sons were treated to an exhibition at their special re- quest. A favorite toast in these days was **Snccess to the British boxing and its hon- orable principles. ‘‘Jim’’ Belcber was champion in the early years of this century. He lost one of his eyes while playing rackets. Then came Tom Belcher, who defeated the Irish champion, Doherty, on the Curragh of Kildare. |; That battle was as famous in its way as the battle of the Boyne. Pearce, the ‘‘Game Chicken,’’ stood at the head of the list next, and the famous John Gully became his successor. Gully will be forever remembered asthe prize fighter who became a British Legislator, He represented Pontefract in Parliament from 1832 to 1837, and like Jobn Morrissey in Congress, was one of the best behaved men in the body. One of Guily’s hardest fights was with Gregson, the ‘‘Lancashire Giant.’’ Both men were over 6 feet in height, and each weighed more than 200 pounds. This encounter is memor- able for some of the hardest hitting on record. Gully was tumbled completely off his feet three times and Gregson twice. They met again May 10, 1808, when twenty-four rounds were fought in fifty-eight minutes. Gregson was knocked down seven times and Gully, who again won, only once. TOM CRIBB was perbaps the most popular champion Eng- land ever had, and one of the best. In 1810, when the Virginia negro, Molineaux, went to London to fight him, nearly every man in England began to tremble for the puglilistic honor of his country. A leading journal of the time said: „Some persons fee! alarmed that a black man and a (foreigner should seizethe championsh! ot England and decorate his sable brow wit the hard-earned laurels of Cribb. He must, however, have his fair chance, though Tom swears that he will be —— before he will re- linquish a single sprig except with his lite. Tee fight took place on Copthall Common in Sussex. The Throne and the aristocracy were of course represented among the spectators. The Prince of Wales was there and around him clustered the Duke of Dorset and Lord George Sackville, who backed Molineaux; Lord Amherst, Sir John Rous, the Earl of Grosvenor, who subsequently became the rst Marquis of Westminster, and who was then the envied owner of the finest game chickens in all England. It was a desperate fight, ending in the defeat of Molineaux. They met again September 28, 1811. In the ninth round Molineaux’ jaw was broken by a blow from crib and in the eleventh he was knocked senseless. The fight lasted about twenty minutes. The friends of Molineaux claim that he did not receive fair play. This is denied by the other side and the question, of course can never be settled. The joy in England was unbounded, and his admirers presented Cribb with a belt, which was the first trophy of the kind that was made. Tom Cribb lived until 1848. His friends erected a monument in his memory which would not be unworthy the fame of Wellington or Nelson. Ihe part borne by prize-fighters in theft cor- onation of George IV. is ane ofthe mos cu- rious pages in the history of England. That event, important to George if not to the bi came off in July, 1821. He had been the J, PATRON OF THE PRIZE-FIGHTERS the best years of his life and it was only naturalthathe should desireto have them around him when he went to Westminster to assume the trappings of royalty. There were, however, certain reasons of state that made the presence of the pugilists desirable as a matter of precaution. Poor Queen OCaro- line had her adherents, party feeling rose high and there was the possibility of a scene in the historic hall not down on the bills. To prevent the entrance of improper persons, to exclude with tact, but with unflinching firmness, all who had not tickets of admis- sion, Tom Cribbs and seventeen other pugilists were called to the assistance of the throne. Arrayed as pre these men were stationed at the doors of entrance and in the corridors to act as door-keepers, maintain order and show the Dukes and Duchesses of Engiand to their seats to witness the ceremonial of the crown- ing oftheir King. Jackson, Tom Oribb and Tom Spring were at the door of the main hall, where King George significantly bowed to them as he passed in. The conduct of these men,’’ says one of the historians of the King, „was admirable, and on the following day, when the hall was thrown open to the ublic, they behaved in a manner to do credit o themselves. That is to say, they did not punch a single unruly Lord or punch an often - sive or inoffensive citizen. These extraordi- nary pages were engaged by direction of the King, and he was so delighted witb their ser- vices that he directed his Lord Chamberlain to send each one of them a letter of thanks. The chamberlain invited them allto dinner, and put up to be raffied for by them one of the old coronation medals, which was won by om Belcher. One of the most fumous of English fighters was JOHN SHAW, the Life Guardsman, who was killed at Water- loo. His reputation asa fighter rests mainly on his defeat of Painter ina hard contest on Hounslow Heath in 1815. Painter had beaten Tom Sprig, Cribb’s successor as champion, and had issued a challenge to any man in England forthe championship. Before Cribb or any one else could reply he was ordered to Belgium with hisregiment. His bravery there was so remarkable that Sir Walter deemed it a worthy of commemoration in both poetry and prose. The next most important events in the an- nals of pugilism were the three remarkable fights between Ben Count and Bill Thompson, better known as ‘‘Bendigo.’’ The first dat - place in 1835, and the one for the At the was is all the great pugilists of his day, JOINED THE CHURCH the roughs and toughs of Lon- work among them. before this period, was 4 being a winner in tg seventeen es. arch, e Brig ton Bil, whom he punished 80 that he died in a few days, Swift had six months’ imprisonment on death of Noon, whom he had re Phiips.

According to the best authorities, cricket is a combination of hockey, bat and ball, round- ers and tip-cat, Mr. Ballard’s theory being that when tip-cat was played 200 years ago it was known as ‘‘cross-wicket,’’ and the play- ers consisted of eleven a side, with a notcher or scorer, and that when the cat was hit away the strikers ran as now, the runs count. ing toward game. Afterward a ball was sub- stituted for the cat, and the name changed, or rather shortened from ‘‘cross-wicket’’ to ‘‘cricket.’’ Ina picture of a match played in 1743 the game seems to have n in the transitory state, the popping bole, a remnant of rounders, being shown under the hurdle- wicket, and, in reality, was the original of the popping-crease, he wicket then was simply two upright sticks with another piece of, wood, or bail, on top of them. In the picthre the wicket-keeper occupies the same place he does now in a cricket match, and allowing for the then shorter stumps, stands in the’same position of lively watchfulness. The batsman is handling aciub bat, obviously a compromise between a hockey stick and a tip-cat bat. The bowling appears to consist in trundling the ball along the ground, and from the near position of the scorer to the wicket, and the manner in which the fielders stand, off hitting was unknown at thattime. There is only one account existin of an eleven-a-side match in that era, that o Kent vs. All England in 1746, which, however, goes to prove that in its chief details the game was contested under much the same condi- tions as at present. It is, however, an open question whether the County of Surrey, Sussex, or Kent has the most right to be considered the nursery of the national game in Engiand, though undoubted- . the Bat and Ball Inn, about two miles from ambledon in Sussex, has most claim to the title of being the cradle of cricket. This old house standson a level expanse of ground, where two crossroads meet, and outwardly— atleast afew years back—presented much the same appearance as it did years ago. Between 1775 and 1780 a middie stump was introduced, when a newer style of playing the game came into vogue—that is to say, ia addi- tion tothe third stump other changes were taking place, notably in the bats or clubs, which gradually became straighter and wider in shape. This continued until 1840, by which time the cricket bats altered in form to what they are at present. pigariy everything else, such as the bowling distance, placing of the fielders, appointment of umpires, etc., were gradually introduced as weil, the only differ- ence being in the costumes of the players. At the early part of the present century the cricketer’s d*ess consisted of breeches, silk stockings, lace-up iron-tipped shoes, fancy colored shirts and jockey caps—at least that was the uniform worn the famous Hambledon Olub, which at first helped to spread such a luster over this Lah ape — 3 wom pastime. It is now over a hundred years ago (1870) since the historical match was played between Hamble- don and All England, in front ot the Bat and Ball Inn we bave already referred to at which, it has been alleged that the famous old player, Willie Baldham, known far and wide as Su- ver Billy, took part—though according to the best autborities he could not have been much over 14 years old, but they began young in those days, for boys of 15 fought at Waterloo, CELLULOID PRODUCTS. Safe to Handle, But Ready to Burn—A Word to the Wise. From the American Analyst. Umbrella and cane bandles, collars, cuffs, and scores of other articles of convenience, utility and even elegance, manufactured from celluloid, are in dally use bylarge numbers of the people. The question is asked, ‘‘May they be safely used?’’ Oelluloid is made from gun cotton, the powerful and violent explosive compound. Gun cot- ton is made by saturating absorbent paper with a mixture of two parts of nitric acid and five parts of sulphuric acid. The celiulose of the paper, derived from the cellu- lar tissue of the cotton in common use, Is changed by the combination and becomes gun cotton. To make celluloid, the excess of acid is washed out by the free use of water, and by pressure carefully applied. After the removal of ali uncombined acid, it is reduced to a homogeneous N mass, strained until it becomes nearly , and is then mixed with about one-third ofits weight of gum cam- pees. These materials are mixed as un- ormly as possible bv careful manipulation with wooden instruments, and then by grinding. The pulp which is turned out by grinding is 9 —.— dut and reduced to slabs of various thicknesses and rolled between steam-heated rollers, and then becomes mod- erately elastic in strips of medium thickness. In this form it ie worked up into the various articles which are offered for sale and use. Although gun cotton is easily manufactured ite manufacture for experiment or for general use is nut recommended; and, although cellu- loid articles may be safely used with ordinary care, a bonfire of such articles for amusement is not recommended. No injuries from such use have been reported. <A word to the wise, however, suffices. Ty ig True American and True Bostonian. From the Boston Post. A Boston lady, knowing that the trans- lation of Dante had justthen appeared, and having heard that the aged monarch (the King of Saxony) was proud or his literary ability, had a good opportunity of alluding to his chef d’oeuvre, which she immediately seized. The King addressed her in turn, say- me: Tou are m America, I believe.

From the Burlington Free Press. : aad how he eel ve to take the for the rest of his 895 ien * 5 1 of affairs,’’ said Lieut. Charles K. Goodwin of the United States Army, who is visiting friends in the citv, ‘‘we are look- ing anxiously forward to several changes that have been talked about for a long time past. Nothing has yet been done, but opinions on army reorganization have been invited and the prospects are that something will be done before very long. That some change is needed is a fact patent to all officers who have had any experience with troops, and those who served in the volun- teers during the war are most decided in their opinion that sweeping reorganization is nec- essary. Ihave recently been in Washington and find that the Adjutant-Generul’s office is full of papers recommending various changes, but the unanimity of sentiment expressed uponjone or two points proves beyond a doubt thatssome change is urgently required, PROMOTION FROM THE RANKS. In the first place, there should be some much better seheme aevised for promotion from the ranks. The United States is the most democratic nation on earth, but in respect to its army notatouch of democracy ‘can be discerned. We have modeled our mil- ‘tary establishment after that of England, which is the most aristocratic service on earth. With very few and occasional excep- tions a man once a private is doomed to fe- main always a private, and a perfect gulf divides the officers from the men. Of late years, to be sure, an opening has been made by which non-commissioned officers may rise to the shoulderstraps, but daily the inade- quacy of this legislation and its inequality become more strongly marked. A cap- tain cannot give a non-commissioned office to the best man in his company, save by chance. No sergeant or corporal once ap- pointed can be deprived of his chevrons save by court martial, and a company commander is often obliged to see very inferior material, which he very likely inherited from his pred- ecessor, commanding men in every way their superiors. As long as such a sergeant keeps his place there is no hope of promotion for any one below him as the rules confine the competitors for commissions to the ranks of non-commissioned officers. Every man who commands troops is in favor of the abolition ofthis distinction, and to make this altera- tion would not only prove ~— beneficial to the service, but would also bring it into far closer sympathy with the spirit ot American institutions. THE PRESENT ENLISTMENT SYSTEM. „Still more detrimental to the army is the system of enlistment now in vogue. No ques- tions as to character are asked, the recruiting stations are established in the great cities, where there is a large floating population, the men are taken as they come, probably one- third ofthe names given are assumed, the recruits are sent to different regiments irrespective of the place of enlistment, and their identity is lost as it would be in no other way. It thus comes to pass that no one is responsible in any way for the recruits, they feel no responsibility to anyone else, and whenever they get tired of the service desert and return to their homes, if they have any, where a warm reception awaits them. This system is of all others the best suited to en- courage the great curse of our army, deser- tion, and fills the ranks with a low class of men. A — will be recommended by a number of officers in this respect, which will probably be brought before Congress, where its advantages can scarcely fail to secure recognition. A DESIRABLE CHANGE. The idea is to divide the country into about forty districts, as nearly equal in population as pose ble. One regiment will be raised in each district and, except when the ranks cannot be filled,no outsiders will be admitted. This will at once raisethe standard of the army immensely. A young farmer who sees no prospect for him at home can enter the army knowing that his lot will not be cast among a set of ruffians gathered from heaven knows where, Dut among those who are his peighbors and friends. For the protection of their sons the residents in each district will take care to in. form the recruiting officer should any bad character attempt to enter the ranks, and thus a volunteer supervision will spring up more effective than any that can be officially made. Then desertion’ will be a very difficult affair. Each dis- trict will naturally be proud of the regiment recruited within its limits, and will follow it with close Interest. The disgrace of one will be felt by all, and a man who deserts will meet reprobation instead of welcome at his home. is friends and neighbors who have relatives in the regiments will not re- ceive him, and b the act of .de- sertion he will cut himself off from all his former friends and associates. He will have no home, but must bury himself in some re- mote region. With this sentiment prevalent, desertion will be a rare crime, and the tone of the army will be raised immensely. If with this is coupled greater opportunity of promotion from the ranks the United States will soon have an army which will be, for its numbers, the best in the world instead of one of the worst as regards the personnel of the rank and file.’’ BEDS FOR ROYALTY. None of the Queens Care to Sleep on the } Soft Side of a Board. From Modern Society. Clarence House, the residence of the Duch ess of Edinburgh, is one of the most comforta ble houses in London, and is famous for its good beds, for the only daughter of Alexander II. of Russia is, like many Muscovite ladies, very particular about her beds, and will tol- erate in her house none but the very best. Even when a mere child, and long before her marriage, she was so particular about this very important item of domestic comfort that to insure the sheets being tightly stretched over the mattresses she used to have them sewn down, for even the slightest crease or wrinkle would 1 destroy the repose of this im al spotled child for the night. Her Royal Highness used to be greatly chaffed about this weakness by members of the royal family. when first she came to this country, but the Queen, who is also very particular about her beds, stuck up hee her, and although now the sheets are no longer the mattresses, they arecom- fine linen that rfiect mattresses that u Paris, in which capi- been brought of a fine art. using chapter might, in- e ee Eugen le as the up to the leve A curious an racious sover- fhe first-named ABMY REORGANIZATION. indeed ! marvelous with?“ of efficient salesmen Great MID-SUMMER Clearance Sale. * DEATH OF A DEMON, A Tigress That Played With Her Victims as Does a Cat With a Mouse. The notorious Jounsar man-eating tigress has at last been killed by a young forest offi- eer, says a writer in the London Telegraph. This tigress has been the scourge of the neigh- borhood ol Chakrata forthe last ten years,and her victims have been innumerable. On one occasion s he seized one of a number of forest- ers who were sleeping together in a hut,carried him off, and deliberately made bim over to her cubs to play with, while she protected their innocent gambols from being disturbed. His companions were eventually forced to take refuge in a tree from her savage attacks. Here they witnessed the following ghastly tragedy: The tigress went back and stood over the prostrate form of her victim and vurred ina catlike and self-complacent way to her cubs, who were romping about and ro) ing over the apparently lifeless body. She then lay down a few yards off, and with blinking eyes watched the gambols of her young progeny. Ina few moments the man sat up and tried to beat the oung brates off. They were too young to old him down, so he made a desperate at- tempt to shake himself free and started off at a run, but before be had gone twenty yards the tigress bounded out and brought him back to her cubs. Once more the doomed wretch had to defend himself over again from their playful attacks. He made renewed attempts to regain his free- dom, but was seized by the old tigress and brought back each time before he bad gone many yards. His groans and cries for heip were heartrending; but the men in the tree were paralyzed with fear and quite unable to move. At last the tigress berself joined in the gam - dols of her cubs, and the wretched man was thrown about and tossed over her head exactly as many of us have seen our domestic cat throw rats and mice about before beginning to teed on them, The man’s efforts at escape grew feebler. For the last time they saw him try to getaway on his hands and knees toward a large fig tree, with the cubs clinging to his limbs. This final attempt was as futile as the rest. The tigress brought him back once again, and then held him down under her forepaws, and deliberately began her living ineal before their eyes. Color- Blindness. An exchange says an ingenious device for testing color-blindness has recently appeared. It consists in a combination of two adjustable attached cards or surfaces, one made ub of ditferent color sections and the other contain- ing an opening or aperture upon a white sur- face, the card containing the color sections being arranged sothat the several sections can be brought to pass beneath the opening of the card. The subject of color-blindness has been receiving much attention, and many of the government employes are now obliged to submit to a color examination before they can secure an appointment. It is found that only forty men out of every thousand are color- blind. A color-blind would be useless were the selection of colors to enter into his life work. It appears strange that color-blinds make the best etchers, steel engravers or wood engravers, but euch is the case; by the law of compensation they possess what is known to their profession as the ‘‘recognition ot tone. But two women in 1,000 are color - blind. The savage races ssess the percep- tion of color to a greater than the civy- ilized races. the Foulard Fad in London, From London Truth.

THE JOHNSTOWN DISASTER, Verdict of the Coroner’s Jury—Owners of the Dam to Blame. JOHNSTOWN, Fa., July 6.—The Coroner’s jury finished its work to-night at 9 o’cloek and in an hour rendered the following verdict: We, the undersigned, in inguest empanelled to investigate the cause of the death of Ellen Hite on the $lst day of May, after hearing the testimony find that len Hite came to her death trom drowning; that 9 was caused by the break- ing of the South Fork dam. We further find from the testimony and what we saw on the ground that there was not sufficient waste- weirs, nor was the dam constructed strong enough, nor the proper material used to with- stand the overflow, and hence we find that the owners of said dam were culpable in not making it as secure as it should have been, especially in view of the fact that a popula- tion of many thousands were in the valle below, and we hold that the owners responsibie for the terrible loss of life and roperty resulting from the breaking of the am.

Et WHAT IS DISCRIMINATION THE EFFECT ON BUSINESS OF THE AUT ON FREIGHT TARIFFS, A Cut on Wool by the Indianapolis & St. Louis Precipitates a Break in Grain Rates—The Cut a Discrimination Against st. Louis and the Elevators, and Also Against the Flour Millers, HE Inter-State I commerce law has had considerable effect on transpor tation matters since its passage. Just what it is it is difficulttosay. At presentit seems to have very great weights though whether or not it prevents discrimi- nation is a prob- lem. Some time 8 ago there was an opportunity for a change of classification on wool. The Indianapolis & St. Louis jumped in, taking advantage of the situation, and be- fore any of its competitors could think just what was going on, ithad issueda new tariff on woolto the Eastern seaboard. The rate had been 63 cents per 100 pounds. Tbe In- dianapolis & St. Louis made such a reduction that it attracted all of the wool likely to be shipped East, and before the other roads had catch up with it it enormous quantity of woc tothe East. The other roads had no re- course whatever. They had tariffs, and until they could place new ones in effect, with the legal notice, they had no recourse whatever. They had to grin and bear it and await their innings. The action of the Indianapolis & St. Louis was a practical declaration of war, but under the circumstances it was hardly enough tobring ona general conflict. The lake and rail route came in as a formidable rival, and, seeing that it was being whipsawed in the struggle for trade, the Chesapeake & Ohio re- duced its tariff and started out to seek busi- ness in competition with all comers. Just then also the Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City, the oid Narrow-Gauge, came into the market and further perplexed matters. There was no time to be lost, and action was taken im- mediately. The course of the Indianapolis & St. Louis had reduced the New York rate on wool from 63 cents to 55 cents, it had gath- ered up all the wool to be shipped, and all that remained for the other roads wus to re- duce on other lines. : THIS WAS DONE as quickly as possible, and yesterday the To- ledo, St. Louis & Kansas City ap- peared with anew tariff_to New York, Phila- delphla and Baltimore from all connecting lines. This schedule was for grain from all connecting lines, witha rate of 23 cents to New Lork, 2lgcents to Philadelphia and 20 centsto Baltimore. The tariff was 6 cents abovethis. The newftariff takes place to- morrow. The Ohio & Mississippi at the same time issued a new tariff, at the same rates, andalso from connecting lines, The only difference was that with the Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City, the rate was made for grain, while the Ohio & Mississippi rate was for wheat and corn. It was, however, for connecting lines only, as stated, aud would exclude oats, etc. Then the Vandalia made a rate for wheat and corn atthe same figures from East St. Louis and allway stations. This rate pre- vents any discrimination as between stations, though it leaves the same old difference as be- tween long and short hauls. The situation has so far been allowed to rest here. The new tariffs made are 6cents per 100 pounds below — — tims to had shipped an the old tariffs, and, with the excep- tion of the Vandalia, the rates are all made for connecting lines. The Van- under the circumstances receive from any elevator that offers. The others can only receive from connecting lines. Anv wheat or corn or grain can only be taken in under the special tariff if they come by con- necting lines. What may be here will be com- pelled to pay fulltariff. This has very natur- ally raised a vigorous protest. Thad elevators on this side of the river and those which can- not wellreach the Vandalia onthe east side, are in such a position that they can acarcely do business under the circumstances. it is to their interest to have the same rate all the way through, and to prevent anything like discrimination. They cannot do it, how- ever. Try as they may, the new rate is 6 CENTS BELOW THE TARIFF, and so far as can be seen the demoralization is to increase instead of diminish. The Van- dalla line has the advantage so far appar- dalla can ently. Its rate is made from East St. uls and all local points. It must be 80 to avoid conflict with the interstate commerce law. Being so it can receive wheat and corn at these rates from all elevators. The other lines, the Toledo and the Ohio & Mississippi, have made the same rates from connecting lines. They thus avoid conflict with the law, and can make any rates from local points. But they cannot receive grain from elevators or shippers at these rates, and there comes the rub. Wheat or corn or grain coming from any other source than connecting re pay tariff. That is6 cents per 100 pounds higher, or 12 cents per 100 pounds higher for flour than for wheat. This has not been 80 for several years. About ten years ago fhe flour millers made a demand for a rate on hour on the same basis as wheat. They had a hard fight, but they finally succeeded in hav- lug a rule passed that flour should be classed with wheat and that flour should pay only the rate paid for wheat. There has since been no » departure from the rule. The millers have at all times been able to ship at the same rates ald for grain, and with any demand at ail they have been abie to do business. Since then there has never until the present time been any inclination to establish a difference. — that there is such an effort the question SCs, IS THIS DISCRIMINATION, or have the railroads the right to make such a distinction as between grain and flour, or as between grain received from connecting lines and grain shipped out from local warehouses and elevators. The grain class may be re- earded as one and the flour class as another. » But still they have for years been identified as mne, and business has become accustomed to ~Assifying them as one. A change now will restrict the mills in St. Louis and vicinity to the local’ demand. The carrying-out of the present tariffs will also work an injury to grain shippers and farmers. Un- der it, asthe elevator men say, a farmer on One section may have 10,000 bushels of wheat stored here, and his neighbor may have 10,- 000 bushels in hisown storehouse. The latter willobtain arate of 23 cents by sending his Frain through here, while the farmer, from having had his grain stored here, will have 'o yleidto arate of 20 cents. This would be Practically prehbitive, and if it was contin- ued all the elevators of St. Louis would have todo would be to close down and allow the grain from the West to be switched through here as it would be through a country station. The tariffs as now lixed, however, are NOT PERMANENT BY ANY MEANS, and that fact is recognized in railroad circles 1 One prominent agent said yester- Cay that there was no doubt whatever but — rates were approaching general demor- 5 ‘zation, and that the next line taken in would „Hour. The millers havs made a very Vig- Orous protest on being left ont, and me railroads have ofered enh excuse that — wheat rate made will not attract 5,000 — ele in a month.

If he does he is guilty of an infraction of the law, and is liable to punishment. That the rates are going lower, owever, and that they are already in the hands of a rinter, is evident by the offers made on a shipment of about 150 car-loads of grain to be made next ifferent agents have offered rates to 18 cents instead of 23 on this, as they can do under the law in an- ticipation of revised tariffs, showing that new tariffs are being arranged. ile the present trouble in St. Louis was brought on by the Indianapolis & St. Louis course as to wool, it was SUDDENLY PRECIPITATED by the receipt ofa telegram from D. 8. Me- Cabe, Assistant General . Agent of the 0 Pennsylvania, and in arge of the lines west of Pittsburg, by Hor- ace Hibbard. This telegram notified Mr. Hibbard and ali division freight agents on all lines that the Baltimore & Ohio had taken such action as rendered it necessary to base the rate on wheat and corn in car loads on 20 cents Chicago and East St. Louis to New York. Itthen gave instructions to issue at once, as quickly as pose Idle, a regular printed tariff in conformity to this reduction, so that the legal notice would make the new tariff operative on July 10. telegram was also received from Geo. R. Blanchard, Chairman of the Central Traffic Association, saying that the Chicago Freight Association had decided for the present at least not to meet the action of the Pennsy!- vania and Baltimore & Ohio, but to await further developments and instructions from managers and tbe meeting called for New York this week. Chairman Blanchard is mak- ing a strenuous effort to prevent the spread of the demoralization to New England points. THE VANDALIA EXPLANATION. Horace Hubbard, General Freight Agent of the Vandalia, said yesterday concerning his road’s participation in the cutting: The Vandalia is not cutting the rates on grain. We have, eo followed the Baltimore & Ohio, which has made a rate of 20 cents on corn delivered to it in East St. Louis by connections for the seaboard. We have issued atariff giving the same rate from East St. Louis, but we make this difference: Our rate applies to corn o@t of St. Louis elevators as well as to corn delivered to us by Western connectiohs. Under the B. & O.’s tariff grain originating in Kansas or Nebraska is given a rate of 20 cents from East St. Louis to the seaboard, and grain originating in St. Louis is charged 26 cents. We put grain from the West and grain from the elevators in St. Louis on an equal footing, giving both the benefit of the 20-cent rate from East St. Louis.’’ **What road will cut in flour?“ don't know. Has the Vandalia considered it?“ „1 have asked the few persons who have spoken to me about it which is the most valuable a pound of flour ora pound of wheat? Thev say ‘a pound of flour.’ Well then it can stand the higher rate.’’ This was said with the ac- companiment of a significant smile. Mr. Hubbard also smiled as he said that the 20c grain rate which covered St. Louis as well as Western grain was established for the bene- fit of the city.

THE ELEVATOR CONSOLIDATION, A Name Adopted and the Scheme Now Practically Arranged. The Post-DIsPpaATCcH has stated before that aside from the formal passing of titles and the election of officers, the elevator consolidation bas been completed and is assured. The only thing now remaining in the way ofthe pur- chase of all the properties by a central com- pany is that the legal matters pertaining to such a large transaction have not been urranged. Judge George A. Madill is looking after that end of the business and the gentle- men connected with the elevators say that the Judge is moving very siowly and cautious- ly. A number ofthe elevators gare built on leased ground and the status of these leases is an important matter to consider. Some of them are valuable, more valuable than the ground, and could be sold for more than the ground. Others are losing investments made years ago and based on judgment that is now known to be wrong. These leases, as well as the titles tothe property which is owned by some of the companies, must be exam- ined and proved correct before they will be accepted by the new company. The name has now been determined upon. The new organization will be known by the name ofthe St. Louis United Elevator Co., and its warehouse receipts have already been lithographed. For some time it was doubt- ful wheether to call the company the St. Louls United Elevator Co. or simply the United Elevator Co. Some objected to the ‘*St. Louis, probably, it is suggested, be- cause it might be supposed by those who Know no better that the present St. Louis El- evator Co. had swallowed all of the others, when, as a matter of fact, it, with the others, has been swallowed. This objection was re- ally trivial, however, and it was soon laid aside. The warehouse receipts are printed „St. Louis United Elevator Co., and the re- ceiptsare now in the hands of one ofthe members of the syndicate. WANTED—CLOTHING, Outfits for Poor Children Needed by the Country Week. The Country Week Branch of the Children’s Aid Society has sent twenty-seven poor chil- dren into the country up to date. This branch of the society, as a greater part of the public knows, cares for little children of the city, who suffer from the extreme heat of midsum- mer, and whose parents cannot themselves relieve them, by sending them on a short visit to kind-hearted people in the country, who invite the children to make them a visit of one ortwo weeks and who send the invitation through their ministery, to whom the society applies on behalf of these little ones. 11 expects to send out about fifty children next week who will require nearly everything wearabie—bats, shoes, out and inside cloth- ing. Those having anything to give away can send postal to this office orto the society. D. Crawford has kindly offered one of his wagons to collect the bundles. The Children's Aid Society hasan office at 405 North Eleventh street which is open from9 to 11 o’clock in the morning. The condition of the fifty elected te be sent to the country is said to be most pitiful. Many of them were beneficiaries of the Post-DisPpaAtcH Poor Children’s Fund last winter and none of these have received any clothing since that mem- orable distribution. They can’t be sent away in their rags and the managers rely upon the charitable public to supply them with the necessary articles. Combine in Name Only. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPaTCnH. Sr. Paul., Minn., July 6.—The Minnesota Wholesale Grocers’ Associaiion, the organi- zation formed to fix prices upon sugars and staple provisions, has changed its constitu- tion and will no longer attempt to control the prices at which its members sell these com- modities. At the meeting held in St. Paul and continued at Duluth the matter of the withdrawal of Geo R. Newell & Co. was fully discussed. Much bitter feeling was manifested against that firm for the independ- ent stand taken. The association will con- tinue in name at least for awhile. Its objects hereafter will be to secure uniform freight rates and make similar mutual arrangements, but the prices of — will in no cagejbe a watter for its regulation. The Bridal Bulletin.

Franchise Bill Held Up in the Council to Prevent the Imposi- tion of a Monopoly Like Jay Gould’s on St. Louis—What He Proposes Shall Be Done, N THE meeting of the Council Friday night the bill grant- ing to the St. Louis, Keokuk & North- Railroad— 2 — Ne . — “way system —the right to enter the “gi city from the north Ai} Rand cross numerous Whe | streets was laid on “Sf the shelf until fall. This was unexpected action. The railroad people did not look for it, and the public was not aware that such action was in the range of ~probabilities. The corporation purchased a great deal of real estate for its terminals in that section, andwas supposed to be fixed for smooth rolling throughthe local legislature. It was President of the Council and acting Mayor Cyrus P. Walbridge that blocked the wheels of franchise giving. The bill came up as a special President Walbridge, calling Council- man Metcalfe to the chair, moved the recom mitment of the bill to the Railroad Committee from which it had been reported with amendments at a revious meeting. He said he believed it desirable that the C., B. & Q. should be given an en- trance into the city, and had personally urged the Chairman of the Railroad Committee to hasten the report on the bill. He wasin fa- vor of its passage originaily, but INVESTIGATION CONVINCED HIM that it would not be wise to grant to any single corporation rights in that section of the city which would bar out otherrailroads. He thought that instead of giving a monopoly of the territory to one corporation the Municipal Assembly had an opportunity of formulating a comprehensive system of terminal facilities which will adequately accommodate all the railroads desirous of entering the city from the north, and which will result in the mini- mum damage to private rightsand the maxi- mum advantage to the interests of the city. He did not believe that the Assembly Was ready to such a sys- tem at once, motion was forthe purpose of stopping all legislation in relation to railroad franchises until the As- sembly was ready to do this. The Council agreed with Mr. Walbridge and the bill was recommitted bya large vote in favor ofthe motion. Yesterday . MR. WALBRIDGE was asked to explain his object more fully. He said: In general, my object was to avoid the danger of establishing a monopoly north of the bridge similar to the Jay Gould monopoly which now controls the Mill Creek Valley. Many years ago, when our people, in their eagerness to get railmoad facilities, granted order, and a franchise to the Missouri Pavific in the Mill Creek Valley, they I'ttle dreamed that they were estab- lishing a system which would eventually hold the commerce of the.city by the throat and arbitrarily control all other railroads seeking entrance tothe city. A similar problem pre- sents itself to-day in relation to the terminal facilities in the northern and eastern part of the city, but the importance of the question is increased in proportion to the increase of our commercial interests since the time of the granting of the Missouri Pacific franchise. Only recently the railroads bave fixed their attention upon that portion of the city be- tween the old and new bridges. Already two franchises have been granted to minor cor- porations: two great trunk lines are now ask- ing for terminal facilities there; four or five new enterprises have bills before the Munic- ipal Assembly, and another great trunk line is expected soon to presenta bill, making seven oreigbt distinct railroad corporations seeking to get controlof the very valuable privileges mentioned, In view of these facts I believed it not de- sirable to legislate for individual railroads witbout any comprehensive plan for the con- trolof all. Forsome years there has been a good deal of desultory talk by property- owners along the east front of the city about bringing railroads into that locality, but nothing has been done by them. When the great Cupples movement to transfer the heavy business from under tbe hill to the neighborhood of the Union Depot was started, property owners between Main and Second streets were aroused tothe cousciousness that iiamediate action was nec- essary. Anassociation of East End property Owners was formed for the occasion. They seemed to agree that the redemption of that part of the city must come in the form of rail- road facilities, but their organization has not been in working order long enough to enable them to mature definite plans. therefore believed it desirable to suspend all railroad legislation affecting that district until a comprehensive plan can be evolved which shall amply accommodate all railroads seeking an entrance intothe city, produce a minimum damage to private rights and a maximum advantage to the commerce of the city. When I made the motion to recommit the bill lhadno definite plan in view, nor have I now, but the more I study the situation the more I am con- vinced that a system terminal facilities can be devised for that se¢tion which will surpass any similiar enterprise inthe country, giving easy, ample and smooth access to an indefi- nite number of railroads, build up the river front of the city and furnish to our commerce an outlet and inlet, the advantages of which can hardly be conceived of at this time. But this will be impossible if we continue to grant franchises to individual railroads * without keep- ing the general plan in view. —4 motion was carried by a vote of 9 to 4, which justifies me in believing that the Council will not take any action upon railroad matters in that locality until after the summer recess. In the mean- time Ishall give the matter very careful at- tention with the hope of having a definite nlan to submit to the Assembly in the fall.’’ THE ASSOCIATION to which Mr. Walbridge refers will perfect its organization some time this week and will be known as the Kast End Improvement Associ- ation. It will secure a charter for and back a corporation to be known as the Kast End De- ot & Terminal Co. The association now — over 100 property owners in the section east of Fourth street to the river bottom be- tween Biddle street and — ey avenue on its books as members and it is expected a larger number will join. The stock of the cor- poration will be taken by these members. It is proposed to ask the Municipal Assembly, after the summer recess, to give to the East End Depot & Terminal Co. franchises for a proper system of terminals and depots to accommodate the business of all railroads that may Wish to enter the section.

M. ss SALOONS IN THE COUNTY MAY BE CLOSED FOR ONE MONTH ON AC- COUNT OF A DECISION. The Court of Appeals Annuls the Action of the County Court in a Saloon Case—The Queer Petition of Henry Horsch—Dr. Starkloff Sued for Slander—Court News. OT times are to prevail among the saloonkeepers ot Cen traf Township of St. Louis County before long if the decision of the Court of Appeals made yesterday is car- ried outin all applica- ble cases. Central Town- ship, St. Louis County, is directly west of the city and is the most populous portion of the county. On June 3 last, ws — Henry Horsch, a saloon keeper whose license had expired, presented a petition to the County Court at Clayton ask- ing permission to locate a saloon in Webster Groves, His petition bore the names of 660 persons, mostly in lead pencil. The court examined the petition and granted the request. June 17 the court met again and approved its action of June 8, granting Horsch permission to run a saloon. Thesame day a number of gentlemen signed a petition pro- testing against Horsch and bis saloon and against the action of the County Court. They appealed to the Court of Appeals in this city asking for a writof certiorari to bring the records of the County Court into the Court of Appeals for investigation, This case was atyled William Campbell against Theodore Heege, presiding, and Philip Deuser and T. F. Ackerman, associate judges of the County Court. In the remon- strance which the protestors filed it was stated that Horsch did not get his license in the proper manner and the court did not issue it properly. Petitions of this kind must be filed in the Circuit Clerk’s office at least thirty days before they are presented to court so as to give any one a chance to object. It is alleged Horsch did not file his petition, but rusbed into court with it, claiming to have the majority of ‘‘taxpayers’’ in Central Township on his list of 660 names. The remonstrators say his list was made up of 215 names that were not on the Assessor’s books atall,twelve names were duplicated, fifty-three names could not be made out, so poor was the hand writ- ing, and 443 were persons paying taxes only on personal property, and not assessed tax- payers,’’ as theflaw puts it. All these facts, the objectors “et should have prevented him from securing the Court’s consent to open a saloon in Webster Groves, but itdid not. The Court of Appeals examined the case very thoroughly, and yesterday rendered a lengthy decision, winding up by saying: „»The judgment of the Court is that the order of the County Court of St. Louis County, entered on June3, 1889, and approved June 17, 1889, granting to Henry Horsch a license to keep a dramshop in Webster Groves for six months from the 3d day of June, 1889, be ro- versed, quashed and annulled.’’ Cireult Attorney Warfield of St. Louis County was intown yesterday and read the decision. ‘*That will play the mischief out in the county, he sad. By this decision you see every saloon-keeper in Central Township will have to file bis bond one month before the court onit. Every year their bond is renewed and every year the courts approve or disapprove them, Dut heretofore no atten- tion was paid to filing the bond. The renewal must be made every; Fourth of July, and if the bonds are filled then the court will not be in session until A t.

Dr. Hans Froelich, the Oliye street . cian, has entered suit against Dr. Starkloff, the mewly-appointed Consul to Bremen, $5,000 for alleged slander. Dr. Froel Dr. Starkloff were - ners busin once, but tel view with him as to his prospects and his opponents. In the conver- sation Dr. Starkloff mentioned Dr. Froelich, and the reporter quoted him word for word in the paper. Dr. sStarkloff’s remarks were to the effect that This man is not capable of telling the truth and I can proveit. Dr. Pree- torius thought him upright and honest. Now he does not. I found him unreliable. He must be a crank or a knave.’’ Dr. Froelich says that these remarks were made with malice aforethought, and have damaged him to the extent of $2,500. Not satisfied with this, Dr. Starkloff continued further, so the peti- tioner says, and went on to say that they were in business once, and when they dissoived p ership Dr. Froelich kept the books and a nts and would not give them up. This, Dr. Froelich says, would lead the public to believe he was dishonest and unreliable. He estimates the damage done at $2,500 more and prays the court for 5, 000 and costs. BROKE HIS PROMISE. Mary E. Reichert was married to Jacob H. Reichert October 13, 1879, and she now appears in court seeking a divorce from him. rr went — for several years and then they separated, living apart for four years. On his promise to reform himseif she agreed to live with him. This reunion oc- curred last April. Since then he has been anything but gentle she says. He refused to allow her to go to church or to her brothber’s funeral and on other occasionstried to drive her from the house. Hecalled her all kinds of names and threatened her life. It all cul- minated June 17 last, when he threw heron the floor with great violence because she would not leave the house, and then went upstairs for his revolver. While he was gone she ran away withthe children. She asks for the custody of her two children, 6 and 4 years of age, and also for alimony, as her husband isa saloon-keeper and doing a good busi- ness. WANTS POSSESSION OF HIS ROOM. A rather peculiar suit was filed in the Cir- cult Court yesterday by Catherine and Will- jam Palecek against Joseph Zednecek and William Stutz. The plaintiffs claim that they are legally entitled to the possession of a room on the second floor ofa house on the north side of Soulard street, between Eleventh and Twelfth streets, but the defendants are withholding it from them to their damage. They ask for $125 damages and $% a month rent. GEN. WILLIAM 8. HARNEY’S ESTATE. An inventory of the real estate belonging to the estate of the late Gen. William 8.

Wanderings and Eventfol Career ofa Young Mau Who Avenged His Sister’s Wrongs ard Fled to the Gold Fields of Colorado— How His Hidden Wealth Was Found Aiter Many Years. UNTINGDON, Pa., FY ous 6.—Despite the persistent denials of mineralologists and others that Huntingdon County is a gold-bearing district there have just been unearthed in Porter Township a quantity of gold nuggets worth nearly $8,000. The lucky finder is War- Aden Hoyt of the Colorado State Pen- „ itentiary at Canon City, and the cir- cumstances Son- : — nected with the finding oF the treasure arereplete with the most interesting details. MADE AN OUTCAST FROM HOME. Fifteen years ago one James Hoover, & resi- dent of Franklin County, to avenge a wrong done to his sister by a physician of that county, shotand killed the latter. Hoover then fled and located at a mining camp in Colorado where he took up with another prospector named Simpson. The two eventu- ally amassed a considerable fortune in gold dust and nuggets and when Simpson was laid low with a spell of sickness Hoover decamped with all their wealth. He immediately came East in search of his parents, carrying with him the nuggets of gold in a canvas bag. Hearing that his parents had moved to this county, Hoover came here but could learn nothing of them. HIDING THE TREASURE. It was whiie on his fruitiess search that he became weary with his load of wealth, and stopping by the wayside on the farm of Michael T. Brenneman, in Porter Township, he hid his treasure under the roots of a white oak tree, being careful to locate the place by making a correct draft of the surroundings and taking the names of all the farmers in the immediate vicinity. At the end of the year 1878 he returned to Colorado, leaving die gold where he bad secreted it, and it was not long till he met Simpson his former a . whom he had robbed. Both open fire on each other on sight, which resulted in the ki of Simpson. For this Hoover was arres tried and sent to the Canon City Penitentiary for life. Last month he died there aftera confinement of eight years. Besides the diagram of the place in this county where his gold was hidden, Hoover left an autobiog- raphy and a will, in which he ueathed Warden Hoyt and to his own fat er, should the latter be living, all his possessions con- sisting principally of the buried gold nuggets. THE NUGGETS RECOVERED. Last week Warden Hoyt came here, in com- mf with old man Hoover, whom he found in ranklin County, and after following up the route taken ten years before the James Hoover, cametothe farm of Michael Brenneman. The old farmer’s b was almost taken away when he learned the object oftheir visit, for, said he, to your corre- spondent: „It fetched a kind of chill over me when I remembered that I need only to have put oat my hand to gainafortune. Sunday after : day I have laid on that very spot where gold was hidden.“ Leaving the A LI 0 where the go u were located, — there, lying under the overlapping roots but little covered by the soll, they fonnd all of the treasure that James Hoover ha years previous. They ret and took the first outgoing train. Wanamaker’s Presence Desired. By Telegraph to the Posr- Dur aron. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 6, — President A. B. | — — MONEY WON’T BUY Ir.

D., July Bon Constitutional Convention is now fully under way, but there have been few develop- ments by which the out- come of the convention’s session can be foreshad- Owed. There are but few of the delegates with any radical ideas in their heads, but some of them take kindly to the ‘‘one- house idea. Wiseacres in Bismarck predict that the South Dakota Constitution will be pretty nearly followed here. They say there may be minor changes, but nothing radical or striking. The Farmers’ Alliance representatives here say that that part of the South Dakota const - tution relative to the agriculturists will be entirely suitable to the Alliance people in North Dakota, and the Alliance delegates here propose to have it pretty thoroughly copied inthe new constitution. The Alliance men will work to have the Aus- tralian system of voting incorpo- rated into the constitution. It is quite likely that the Alliance members will work to have the Railway Commissioners elected bythe people and in other ways do away with the appointive power as much as is practicable. The railway lobby is already established in Bismarck ready for business. It is probabie thatthe Prohibitionists will con- tent themselves with submitting their method of regulating the liquor traffic in a lonely little clause, The subject of legislative representation is one that is pretty sure to cause much vexatious debate. The whole thing will be settled in the end by getting pretty close to the South Da- kota plan, which limits the number of mem- bers of the House to not lessthan seventy- five nor more then 135, and the Senate to not less than twenty-five nor more than forty- five. Tanner on Pensions. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsParcn. CHICAGO, III., July 6.—Pension Commis- sioner James Tanner, accompanied by his two daugliters, arrived in the city to-day. The Corporal is feeling indisposed, but he had time to talk to the PostT- DISPATCH correspond- ent. Speaking of the trouble the old soldiers are having to get their pensions, the Commis- sioner said: At every place I visited and spoke it was one prolonged siege. The great cry was that there was too much delay in granting pensions to the deserving. Two women walked eighty miles to see me abouta pension, and an old paralyzed man drove his team 150 miles. They hoped to get no end of favors.’’ It has been said that you had no right to have a certain policy.’’ **ForalithatI haveapolicy. It is liberal, but in every case within the law. One case of fraud ina community reflects great discredit on the whole work.’’ Have you any particular recom mendations which you desire Congress to act upon at the next session?’’ **I hardly think so. If Congress will arrange matters so that every pegson who needs a pen- sion can secure it, ldure say the Grand Army af the Republic will express wonderful una- uimity in declaring it the best course, but I cannot say asmuch forthe much talked-of ‘service pensions.’ Congressmen with whom Ihave conversed about the Lovering bill as advocated by the G. A. R., say that the finances of the country will not stand it. There are now about three hundred and fifty thousand pensioners and 1,000,000 veterans, andthe drain of $8 per month cau easily be computed.’’ Mrs. Mulligan is the Democratic pension agent for Chicago, and in referring to a re- pert circulated regarding that lady’s chances oe aanging on to the office, the Commissioner Said Some weeks ago I was informed that Sen- ator Farwell had, in a letter written to a pen- sion applicant, stated that, as Commissioner Tanner and Mrs. Mulligan were both Irish, she would be permitted to remain until the ex- piration of her term. Mr. Farwell is slightly mistaken on that point, My ancestors were located here in this country when Senator Farwell’s landed.’’ Mr. Tanner was tendered a grand reception by the G. A. R. to-night, after which he re- turned to Washington. New Factor in Politics. BN Telegraph to the Post-Dispatcn. BISMARCK, N.

Nearly all of the officers of the reorganized Wabash Railroad have taken up their quarters in this city, only a few remaining in Chicago to close up the business at that point, On July 15 the Chicago gen- eral office will be given up, and all the business will be concentrated in St. Louis. Already over fifty employes have been added tothe Wabash Western force, and this number will be nearly doubled within two weeks. The increase in the St. Louis trade will con- sist largely inthe minor supplies used by the purchasing department. The larger contracts will be let, as usual, by advertisements, but the articles of every day consumption of the lives east of the river, which were formerly bought in Chicago, will now be obtained in this city.

The names of those the could not all be learned, as no person could givethem but the Secretary, James M. M. Stokes, and he refused to do so until after they had been readin the church this morn- ing. From other sources, however, the names of some of those disbarred were secured. They are: Alfred Smith, R. Hubbard, Henry Griffin, Isaac Lott, Richard Davis, Nancy Martin, Maria Pell, Harriet Slie, Mary Wilson and Sidney Castleman. The name of Chariton H. Tandy was among those on the original list, but it was decided that as the ac- cusation made against him was not as strongly supported as the charge against the others, his name should be omitted from the list and a special triai given to him. The charge against those who were court- martialed Friday evening was sowing the seeds of discord.’’ According to the state- ments of some of the members of the church who are opposed tothe late pas- tor, Rev. Anderson, the supporters of the de- posed preacher organized aclubfor the pur- pose of raising funds to assist Pastor Ander- son in defying the church authorities. This club, according to report, met at the resi- dence of Mary Wilson. When the church authorities heard of its existence they deter- mined to ascertain what its objects were and who composed it. They learned enough to satisfy themselves that the principle object of its formation was to sow seeds of discord in the congregation and to indulge in a free expression of opinion about the oflicers ofthe church and the alleged unjust manner Pastor Anderson had been treated in not be- ing given afull hearing. They also secured a list of the members comprising this opposi- tion club. The names were read out in church and it was announced that a special meeting would be held Friday even- ing last for the purpose of con- sidering these charges. On Friday evening about 200 members attended and when the services were over the Moderator, Rev. McKinney said that the congregation would proceed to consider the cases of tnose against whom charges of speaking disrespect- fully of the officers of the church had been made. The cases he said wouid be consid- ered collectively. The consideration given the cases simply amounted to putting the question of excluding the accused to n vote. The vote in favor of exclusion as announced bv the secretary was 137 for a considerable majority it is said when it is understood that a great many ofthose present did not vote at all. When the verdict was announced, as before, the vote bad been taken, Chariton H. Tandy and others attempted to secure a hearing but failed. THE SCENE at the culmination of the trial was one of wild confusion. The supporters of Pastor And- erson, or rather those who do not support the action ofthe church officers in refusing him a hearing, engaged in loud and angry ar- guments with those who assert that the pas- tor’s supporters are rebels against constituted authority. Theexcitement became so great that many of the arguments, according to ro- port, ended in blows That there were some blows struck is admitted by all. Alot of the sisters, it is said, surrounded Tandy and shook their fists at him, some it is asserted, going so far as to strike at him. Roth Ann Ward, one of the members expelled, is reported to have so far forgotten herself, in view of her expulsion, as to strike a brother as und rap in the jaw. MR. B. A. REID, one of the members of the church who voted for the exclusion of the twenty-five members Friday night, was seen yesterday by a Post- DISPATCH reporter and asked if: it were true that the verdict of exclusion was followed by A fight. He said that he did know that he went outside immediately after adjournment and could not say what did take place. He understood that blows had been struck. When asked what the charge against the twenty-five members excluded was Mr. Reid said that they were accused of sowing the seed of disorder. In the Bible the stor was told that when Lucifer thought himself the equal of God Michael was sent with a flaming sword and host of angels and with this host he vanquished Lucifer and his followers, who numbered one-third of the inhabitants of heaven, and banished them into hell. Now that wus just what they pro- posed todo in the Central Baptist Church. They would banish the one-third of the con- gregation who were rebelling against con- stituted authority. When asked why such summary action was taken, Mr. Reid said that Michael did not hesitate in putting down those who rebelied in heaven, and they did not propose to have any delay in getting rid of those who sowed seeds of discord in the church. JAMES M. M. STOKES was seen, and speaking aboutthe exclusion of the twenty-five members, said: ‘‘We learned that they had formed this club which met at Miss Wilson’s for the purpose of breed- ing dissension and decided to take prompt action. It may be that many joined that elub under a misapprehension as to its purposes, but they were found in bad company, and we thought it best to ezelude them. As regardsthe charge that we refused to listen to Tandy and others who wished to speak against the exclusion, and that we were hasty in bringing in our verdict, I have only this to say—that you can’t do things in time of war as you would do them in time of peace, Ip times of peace in the church, laws provide for the adjustment of such difficulties as may arise, but in such re- bellious times as we have deen having in the church to proceed strictly according to the laws would be complicated and slow, and 80 we decided to throw off the manual and to simply follow the injunction of the Bible: Those that sow the seeds of discord put them from among ye. Is it true that blows were struck?’’ ‘WhvI believe that Ruth Ann Ward dia strike one of the brothers, but that was all. . — bern em 7 who were excluded ead outa s morni ihe moa?

It will be remembered that on April 24 the pastor disappeared, and accord ing to the statements of the church officers he had taken $205 in cash fromthe safe and forged the name of Mr. James M. M. Stokes, the Sec retary ot the Church Board, to checks for $1,190. meeting was called consider the pas- take action upon ating Committee, which consisted essrs. Stokes, Dorman and Gilbert made a report in which the pastor was accused of embezzlement and forgery and the recommendation made that the paipit be declared vacant and the right hand of fellow- ship be withdrawn from him.

By Telegraph to the Post- DISPATCH. KENNEBUNK, Me., July 6.—Several years ago Joseph D. Tripps’ youngest daughter died of consumption. Since then two other daught- ers have gone the same way. Nine months ago a son, Joseph A.of Boston, came home and died. At present the youngest child, a son, is just gone with the dreadful disease. A wel known surgeon of Biddeford is an adherent to the doctrine that bodies sometimes retain growth in some organ after burial. It isa current idea, if not a fact, that the hair grows as long as moisture remains in the body, also that amputated limbs even as as small as the end ofa finger will cause pain if burned, otherwise than in a position natural with the person that lost them. If burned the victim suffers all the tor- tures of fre. Ifthrown among fish every nibble is to the person as if to his own flesh. A few years ago a family in Lyman were dying of consumption. The theory of life after death was advanced and on removal of the bodies one was found with the right lung in a healthy growing state. It was belleved thut it was living on the body of the father, who was then at the point of death. The lungs were removed and utterly destroyed. From that date the father began to recover, and is healthy at present and well advanced in years. Dr. Warren assisted in a similar case at Saco a few years ago, when the heart was found alive. It was removed and cremated, and a young relative re- duced to ninety pounds’ weight by consumption began to recover, and to- day weigas nearly two hundred pounds. Such cases as these have determined the Tripp family to remove their dead for examination. The iatest buried was exhumed recently and every vital part crusbed into a mass of jelly without a sign of life. Theremaining bodies will be treated in a similar manner. Here isa question for scientific men to enlarge upon. TRIALS OF AN OFFICER. Assaulted by Toughs for the Performance of His Duty. Ry Telegraph to the Posr-Drsraren. HERMAN, Minn., July 6.—The Assistant VII- lage Marshal, Rodney Prescott of this place, while attending a dance at Donelly on the evening of the Fourth, was attacked by a gang of toughs on account of an old grudge, he having had to arrest one here some time past. Mr. Prescott had escorted two young ladies of this place to the dance, and was waiting for the return train when accosted. Pres- cott broke away, and minus a bat and coat went to where the dance was held and asked for an escort. Upon that being de- clined he asked fora weapon, and took a bil- liard cue, going back tothe depot. He was again met by the mob. He knocked one man down and unable to defend himself he took to the prairie, 8 off his clothing as he went, followed b he mob, yelling like sav- ages: Lynch him!’’ Hang him!’’ Mr. Prescott reached town and this morning a warrant came demanding bis arrest. Both communities are greatly excited. APPROACHING DEATH, Fatal Illness of Hon. Edmund Rice — His Present Condition. Sr. PAUL, Minn., July 6.—Sixty days is the limit of time gixen by Drs. Sinclair, Charles, Boardman and Ritchie of Duluth, in which Hon. Edmund Rice, ex-Mayor and Congress- man, must give up his earthly career. He is now at the residence of Gen. John B. San- born, a brother-in-law at White Bear, where he lays in a comatose condition, although aroused at times sufficiently to recognize friends. The physicians agree that the attack is an acute softening of the brain,and owing to his great age (73 years) the chances of re- covery are almost hopeless. While sixty days is the limit fixed by the doctors it is generaliy believed that the patient may go into a thor- oughly comatose state at any moment and death may come very quickly.

Board of Underwriters—Compelled to Restore an Expelled Member he Record ef Cases Yesterday in Various Courts. TOPEKA, Kan., July 6.—The famous Gar- fleld County case,’’ in which the towns of Eminence and Ravanna were contesting for the prominent county seat, was decided to-day in the Supreme Court in favor of the former, the vote of Center Townsbip being disregarded, and the actual votes for Emi- nence being counted. The Court holds that the refusal of a partisan elec- tion board to permit any repre- sentation of the opposing town to be present in the polling room during the re- ception of the vote is evidence of corrupt and dishonest purpose, that the failure of the board to immediately after the close ofthe vote make certificates of the number of votes polled and post one on the outside of the polling-place and forward the other under cover to the County Clerk s similar evidence; that to continue the count. ing of dallots until the full returns aie re- ceived from all the other precincts is also ev dence of corrupt and dishonest purpose. This finally settles one of the bitterest county seat wars ever known in Kansas. —_— — o A Lost Heir Turns Up. By Telegraph to the Post-Disrarcn. DETROIT, Mich., July 6.—Another case of the long lost heir has just been developed in the Probate Court. The long-iosf in this case is August Bremer, who now hails from San Francisco, Cal. August Mylius died some years ago, leaving thirteen and a half acres of land to his wife, Martha, two sons and a daughter. One of the sons ran away and has not been heard from since, and the daugh ter was burned to death, s0 that the property all went to Robert Mylius and his mother. The land was cut up into lots and sold to 110 different ersons, who have built houses on the lots. iow comes August Bremer, claiming to bea son of the daughter that was burned to death, and he proves bis iden tity, but then another question is raised, and that is Whether Robert Mylius or his mother died first. Both died the same day and inthe same bed, but if she died first the property would go to Robert and the new heir equally, the latter having proved his identity; but if Robert died first, three- fourths of the property would 40 to the mother and one-fourth to the new herr, and the new heir would not have as large a claim on the present 110 owners. Judge Durfee decided to-day that the mother died first and the estate passed to Robert, and toe long lost Bremer is entitled to half the prop erty. This decision will compe! the 110 pres ent owners to settle with Bremer. Underwriters Defeated. By Telegraph to the Post-Drsrartcr. LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 6.—The injunction suits filed some time ago by Adolph Rentlinger of the Union Insurance Co. and the Franklin Insurance Co. against the Louisville Board of Fire Underwriters to enjoin the latter from denying the plaintiffs from their r- as members of the board, rA this morning in a complete victory for the defendants. The Board has a rule that no company shall employ more than one city svlicitor. This rule the plaintiffs violated and were about to be expelled when oer secured a temporary injunction. They claimed in court that the rule was unfair and that expulsion under t would do them irreparable damage. Judge Toney held that the rule was against good public poli and madethe injunction per- petual. This opens the fleld for solicitors and a brisk gut between companies and a low rate is expected. The board pays the cost. Asks $10,000 Damages. By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcn. TOPEKA, Kan., July 6.—Suit was commenced to-day in the U. 8. Circuit Court by Charles H. Brown against the St. Louls 4 San Fran- cisco Rallroad to recover $10,000 damages. The plaintiff was a laborer in the rallway’s em- ploy November 17, 1888, and while with other employes he was making a rapid zun on an engine to the scene of a snow blockade, near Beaumont, the engine left the track, throw- ing him out and falling upon him.

[Written for the SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. } HIS old horse was one ~ 1 0 of the crack racers in his day.’’ The horse referred to was doing duty be- tween the shafts of a wagon that carried passengers along the boulevard on Long Island. He did his work well, and tried just as honestly to earn his oats as he did when he was well cared for by some rich turfman and won applause from the patrons of the race course by winning for them large sums of money. So this is the future for the splendid animals that win fortunes for their owners. While they bave speed, can run well and wine fame and money, nothing is too good for them. As soon, though, as they become too old to lose their speed, or break down, they must go. Their owners for whom they have done so much get rid of them to make room for more champions, and they often descend to the very lowest grades. What be- comes of all the race-horses? That is a ques- tion often asked by the thousands who vigit the tracks of this country.

In fact, he has often been called **Woodford’s gold mine. HICKORY JIM ‘ is another wonderful gelding whose perform- ances entitie him to mention. He has been running in the vicinity of New York for more than ten years and was brought here from the West. He is said to be twenty years old and is still able to win races, often beating some very'fast youngsters. This is phenomenal, as thoroughbreds rarely race after six or seven years. It looks as though he would race to the end of his life. He deserves a rest now, surely. When Luke Blackburn was winning all the races in which he was entered, the Dwyer brothers purchased a full brother to Luke. They named him Joe Blackburn. He was by Bonnie Scotlond, dam Nevada, and he cost $6,500. They started him in several races, but he never won one, and finally in disgusc they gave him away. He is now drawing a buggy at Long Branch. Speculation, one of the most famous steeple- chasers ever seen in this country, is another unfortunate.

Hassan, a fine looking colt, by Lelaps, dam Hay’em, foaled in 1880, and owned by Walker & Oo., was at one time a great favorite for the Kentucky Derby. Now he is pulling a furrow over a race track where other thoroughbreds are trying to win fame and money. Bull’s-Eye, by Lisbon, dam Target, was once owned by Hon. S. Sandys. He beat Mr. Pierre Lorillard's fast mare Aranza in a mile race at Sheepshead Bay. Since then he hashada hard time. He has at times been half starved, then he has been used in a buggy and asa saddle horse, and now he is to be trained again to try and win more money for his owner. Old Crickmore is another famous old geld- ing. He was good over almost any distance of ground. His greatest race was for the Coney Island Cup, run at Sheepshead Bay. The dis- tance was three miles, and he beat the great Hindoo in very fast time. Crickmore is now on ex-Governor Oden Bowies farm in Mary- land. Rory O’ More, another old-timer and a very good steeplechaser, by Dickens, dam Annie Arundel, is now drawing a butcher’s cart in Brooklyn. , Benton, a first-class 2-vear-old. and the favorite for the Withers Stakes four years ago, is doing duty as a purk back. Shelby Barnes, by Reform or Alarm, dam Emily Fuller, was formerly owned by the father of Jockey Baines. Young Barnes claimed he was swindled out of the horse. Shelby Barnes was a very good sprinter anda good plater. He is now in Illinois and draws a buggy for his owner. POET, BY LONGFELLOW, dam by Jenny McKinny, wasa fast sprinter, owned by Alfred Lakeland. He has been broken to harness and has developed good speed between the shafts. Old Monogram has developed avery good trotter. Itis said hecan go ina 2:40 gait. Monogram was owned by R. C. Pate. He is by Buckden, dam Monomania. Afew years ago he won the Distillers’ Stakes and was imme diately made a hot favorite for the Suburban. He was beaten, though. Jim Douglass, one of the greatest sprinters in the country two years ago and owned by C. Johnson of Montana, has been doing work on a farm out in that part of the country. It is said that he is going to be trained again. Jim Douglass has the reputation of being the most stubborn horse thereis. He has spoiled more starts than any other racer, but when once going he can beat them all. Lelex is another good one that has hada varied career. He was be fast a few years ago and was then retired. He was sold toa manager of acircus and did service inthe ring. Two years ago he was trained again by Dan Honig and has won some very good races. Trouble, the greatest steeplechaser of the age, has appeared onthe stage. He is used as saddle horse. Fellowplay, a very fast sprinter, owned by Green Morris, and the congueror of every fast horse on the turf afew years ago, isnow ina public hack. — A BIG BID FOR AN OPTION, The Lindell Railway Directors Refuse an Offer of $170 Per Share for Their Stock. In the purchase of St. Louis street railway properties by outside capitalists the Lindell Railway lines have always figured very prom- inently, and negotiations for a control of the company’s stock have been re- ported several times. At one time a deal was almost closed at about $130 per share and Mr. Jobn Maxon, who was then president, went East to close up the negotiations. For some reason, however, they fell through, and since then it has been announced that the prop- erties are not for sale. Negotiations have been on several times, however, and as high as $150 per share has been offered and declined. This was several months ago, at the time that the Ohicago syndicate pur- chased the Walsh lines. Since then the Lin- dell has come in for but little notice, but yes- terday it was learned that a New York syndl- cate has just offered $170 per share fortan option on all of the stock that could be regis- tered to an agreement to sell. The proposi- tion was seriously considered, but the direct- ors at last decided to decline it. It was re- orted that the price would be raised as the fastern syndicate, which is very anxious to obtain a foothold in St. Louls, is very favorably disposed toward the Lindell lines, believing that with proper equipment and modern mo- tors they can be made as valuable as the Mis. souri lines. The Lindell officers, when asked tor further details of the negotiations, refused to discuss them in any way, as did also the agent of the Eastern syndicate. The present company is now equipping the eastern end of the Chouteau avenue line with an overhead wire electric system, and is confident of re- eiving a franchise to put the motor in opera- jon over its entire system. With this accom- plished they think the stock will go to over $200 a share immediately. Black Hill Coal Fields. By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. DEADWOOD, Dak., July 6.—The bituminous coal fields of the Black Hills are attracting a great deal of attention. Specimens just brought in are as baight and clear as the an- thracite of Pennsylvania, and they came from a vein within fifty miles of Deadwood that is over eight feet thick, which is roofed with Sandstone. The specific gravity of the coal is eighty-three, while that of the bituminous coal in the East is only seventy-eight. But the best thin about this coal is that it cokes well, and this settles the ques- tion ofthe reduction of the refractory ores found in the Black Hills. Heretofore their reduction has been very slow and costly. But with an abundance of coke for fuel, their re- auction is not only assured, but also made a source of great profit. This new elemen! in the mining process vastly widens this field of industry. The Burlington road will be opened to these coal fields this year. An Interesting Ruling.

Before every plate was a small flower basket in the shape of a garden hut made of osier withes and holding wild roses. At each cover also was a grape leaf of papler mache so closely resembling those In the center of the table as to look as if it had fallen from them,and bearing the menu. The table was lighted by tall, many branched candelbra of pink and white Dresden china placed at the four corners and bolding green and pink candles shaded by rose-colored parasols. The favors were osier bon-bon boxes filled with candied roses, and the mar- asguim sorbet and the ice cream were made up into roses of strawberry, lemon, vanilla, pineapple and apricot flavors. With the approach of dog day heats the daintiness and wstheticism of woman are lav- ished more and more on the table. The act of feeding with the mercury registering 90 deg. is gross enough to be repulsive unless the appe- tite be tempted by sight of flowers, fruit, soft colors and picturesque effects, at least this is the feminine theory. Mrs. Annie Louise Cary- Raymond before leaving town for the sum- mer illustrated the fact that so simple a thing as a breakfast can be madea most impressive ceremony. Eight people sat down before a cloth of WHITE IRISH LINEN, with square center cloth of blue linen em- broidered with slightly conventionalized flowers of the German iris, outlined in blue and filled in in white with honeycomb stitches. In the middie of the table was placeda large blue and white Sevres bowl wreathed with vines and filled with blue and white iris blossoms. Four similar bowls stood at the four corners. The windows of the dining-room were hung with heavy brown linen momie curtains embroidered with stalks of the blue flag couched on the surface with flax cord, while the sash curtains were of thin dull blue Persian silk showing small white figures. Large blue and white Nankin jars filled with blue-eyed grass, sweet clover, blue succory and meadow rushes stood about in corners. There were no name cards, but a broad white ribbon embroidered with the initials of the guest in blue was knotted upon the back of the chair she was tooccupy. Mrs. Cary-Raymond, the sweet singer, wore blue velvet with white lace garniture. The cream soup, creamed oysters or bouil- lon, the taste of fish @rowned in sauce, the sweetbreads, timbales or croquettes, the bit of a bird, the salad, the sorbet or delicate ice in the heart of atulip tied about with a bow, the desert of confectioners’ dainties, all rib- bons and glitter and frills and furbelows, the bright favors, the fruit, the ice cream served on a platter made ofa lily pad or shaped and colored to resemble a flower, all these chief component parts of a ladies’ lunch, over which the butterfly bonnets hover and flutter and chatter and smile for one, twoor three hours, are never more appetizing than when served, as it is now the fad of the summer folk to serve them, out of doors. A girl hostess UTILIZED THE WIDE VERANDA of a country house overlooding the Hudson at Tarrytown for astudy in hollyhocks some days ago. Woodbines were trained about the sides to form thick, cool, green walls. Masses of lush ferns were planted in each corner. The table was spread with a white linen cloth, in the middle of which wasa huge crystal bowl holding an outer circle of ferns and above that hollyhocks piled high. Beginning at the bottom the pure white flower led throuh arange of blush tintstoapale pink circle, the hue of the Mermet rose, and then to rich red blossoms, and so to the blood-col- ored apex of ie: crimson. From this center piece pale pink ribbons radiated to each cover, each ribbon being terminated by a single large hollyhock cut off at the head and show- ing one of the colors massed in the crystal bowl. Fairy lamps of gaslight effects were impossible, but in lieu of these one could crunch one’s bread stick and look out over the sparkling river stretching away to the north with the green walls of High Thor making a background beyond. As itis almost as mucb of a solecism to fall behind the season in one’s flowers as to wear a bustle after it has gone out of style, the pond lily will be a favorite flower with enter- tainers for the next week ortwo. Miss Eliza- beth Drexel, who married J. Vinton Dabhl- green last week and whosetrousseau was +a praised by the gossips at $10,000, gave a lily breakfast some days before the wedding to a select few of her girl friends,a kindof fare- well spread like the traditional bachelor en- tertainment ofthe prospective groom. The lilies were massed ina cut glass bowl big enough to holda quantity ofthem and were edged by acircle of floating pads. The bowl stood on a tray of mirror glass which REFLECTED THE LILIES, and which in turn was bordered like a minia- ture lake with acircle of mosses and ferns. This formed the central ornament ofa table covered by a lunch cloth of the newly im- ported West Indian native grass linen, fine in vexture and a dull yellow green in color, em- broidered in arabesques of white flax thread. Tiny gauze fans painted with nymphs bathing in lily covered pools were the favors, and the tairy lamps were green and white Sevres lilies with soft yellow flames giowing at their hearts. The ices were frozen lilies on lily leaves, andthe bride-elect wore an Empire dress of green China silk with white sash, guthered yoke and puffed sleeves. Last week a party from Brooklyn made up a cavaicade of riders which went swooping full tilt down the Bay Ridge road toa bluff clothed by oaks and cedars and giving an uninter- rupted view of the Narrows. There wasa hurrying anda skurrying of escorts, a flutter of daintily dressea women jumping from their horses into the hands that were out stretched to receive them, a chorus of musical voices and gay laughter. Then a table was miraculously spread ona mound 1 del with ferns. For the cloth there was laid upon it u large table mat of rushes, braided and treated so as to preservethe green. For plates for the guests china was provided, shaped and colored so as to resemble oak leaves latted into sylvan rests for the food, eaves pinned together into horns of plenty, birch bark baskets and boats, eto., no two devices resembling one another. For bread plates, fruit dishes, etc., were genuine wooden trenchers of quaint pattern. The rare Souchong tea, to drink which was the rincipal object of the outing, was ured — a pot modeled after the pitcher plant. The pat of butter for cach guest rested on an oak leaf, newly stript from the tree. The napkins, as fitted such a table service, were of GRASS GREEN LINEN. ’ The knives and forks were trencher weapons, rustic in shape though of precious sterling metal.

SIXTH Sr. BETWEEN MORGAN ST. AND FRANKLIN AV, 3 heaped with roses, daisies, buttercups, pop- pies, every posy that was in season. Where a dozen long tables are spread luxuriance and variety in decoration are desirable, but for the usual course dinner in a private dining room a mass of asingle variety in a yellow bowl or jardiniere is much the safest form of flower ornamentation. If two colors are wished for, it is always good taste to choose contrasting hues of the same posy, as pink peonies grouped with white ones, purple and white wisteria, yellow daisies in a vase with white ones. If more than two colors are ventured on, care must be taken that they harmonize. Wild flowers should not be used with garden favorites, nor hot- house beauties mixed with either. The tablecloth becomes the object of more and more attention. At one grand dinner given this past season the cloth was of silver brocade on a pearly background. At another dinner strips of yellow slik were laid up and down the table and over these were displayed ieces of rare lace almost priceless with age. More accessible to the majority are the white damask and colored wash silk dinner cloths, which are also splendid in decoration. A fine, heavy quality of sheeting linen is as good ma- terial as can be found for a clotn on which drawn work or embroidery is to be lavished. Many of these are made to order and fit the table. The ninety-inch width is always to be recommended and if the table be of good size should never be cut, but allowed to fall as low on the ends and sides as possible. You will finish the edge with a plain hemstitched bor- der, three Inches wide, resolutely ESCHEWING FRINGE. Then, leaving aspace of from an inch to two inches, you will set in a broadinsertion of rich-looking Greek ipure or will work as handsome a band of drawn work as your pa- tience is equal to. If you mean to use a cen- tral scarf either of white or of some contrast- ing color, nothing more is necessg@ry. If the single cloth is to answer it is made more elab- orate by repeating the drawn- work pattern in an oblong in the middie, leaving an open center in which the basket of ferns or low pan of flowers is to have room. Foran embroidered eloth either white or colored sheeting linen or wash silk of any color is in order and in the best examples corn flowers or chicory blossoms or any posy that suits you are dotted over the middie, making a closer border near the edges. Washable silk threads or the real Scotch linen flosses in the soft blues, pinks, creams and golds which are called for in needlework are beautiful on Wuite linen, or if the color effect is objected to the effect of white silk on a white grass linen 1s especially dainty. Napkins are three- quarters of a yard squarefor dinner, fourteen inches forlunch, and are white invariably, with hemstitched border and spray of flowers or embroidered initial. Dollies of wash silk, with cut work embroidery, are the most effective. Tea cloths, table scarfs, corn nap- kins, carving cloths, etc., furnish much occu- pation to the summer needle. A yellow pon- Bee table scarf may be ornamented by a vine n Mexican embroidery, the design being first sketched, then buttonholed in yellow floss and cut out, the interstices having first been crossed with floss threads so as to leave a cobwebby tracery. Corn napkins are made of cream white wash silk embroidered in yellow with stalks of maize. The Brewery Syndicate, By Telegraph tothe Posr-DisrA Ton. ; INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 6.—There is a feel- ing among the employes of the breweries that the big syndicate which is operating so many beer establishments in this country has a big deal on that will result in a change of man- agement if not of ownership. The agents of the pool who were here had no money, but they had backing,’’ said one of the local brewers. They wanted to know what our plant would earn and what it would cost; also what interest on the gross invest- ment would be satisfactory tous. We were given to understand that we could have this interest if we would turn over the establish- ment. Some ofthe breweries have the pro- position modified somewhat under serious consideration. The books and papers show- ing the earnings and statement for years back were in some instances shipped away and have been carefully overnauled by the people negotiating for the plant.

The prosecuting witness testified that the prisoner had stolen 5 cents’ worth of rolls. The man admitted it but said he could not obtain work and was hungry. Judge Ermston said: ‘‘You are dismissed. I cannot send a man tothe work-house if he steals bread when he is hungry and has a wife and children at home depending upon him. Go, and may you get work.’’ Tyler (Tex.) Summer Palace. Er Telegravh tothe POsT-Drsratcn. TYLER, Tex., July 6.—The Summer Palace, which is to be held in this city for three days, beginning July 9, bids fair to be a grand suc- cess. Reports fromthe different counties in Eastern Texas state that nearly every one willhave a large exhibit on band. The East Texas Blooded Stock Association will also hold theirannual exhibit and meeting here during the three days ofthe Fair. The differ- ent railroads leading to Tyler will sell excur- sion tickets at one-haif rate. Architectural League. The St. Louis Architectural League held the regular meeting at their club-rooms, 515 Olive street, last evening and important business affairs were discussed by a very large number ofthe members. After the business meeting was over a fine set of designs for a well can- opy were ins and admired. These de- signs will be judged by P.

The corsage was made with a very wide vest in WHITE SILK EMBROIDERED all over with steel and silver beads. A grace- ful scarf mantelet of the same material as the dress is to be worn draped around the shoul- ders. The bonnet, in steel embroidery and silver lace, has a single blush rose set in the front. Another very tasteful dress was in grass-green foulard, with side panels on the skirtand asleeveless Spanish jacket, both in fine black real lace. The parasol is in black lace over green silk. Capote bonnet ot black lace, trimmed with hops, and having strings of grass green ribbon.

This is made witha corsage in crossed draperies, finished with a sash and long ends in white watered ribbon. Bon- net in white lilacs and gold lace. Parasol in white silk, slightly embroidered with gold. Mme. Rosine Block, formerly of the Grand Opera, has ordered a toilette with the back of the skirt in ruffles of black gauze, each tucked in finger-wide tucks. The front of the skirt is in flat longitudinal folds of pale pink silk, each fold embroidered in a lace pattern with gold thread. Over this skirt front a scarf of black gauze is draped transversely, and is fastened at the left side witha bunch of pink roses. A princesse cut dress in maize-yellow cloth opens at either side over a pointed panel in white satin covered with massive and elab- orate embroidery in gold cord. The high puffed sleeves are also in white satin worked with gold. The cloth dress is bordered around the opening with a slight embroidery in pearls and is finished at the neck with a narrow ruff and plastron on a rich passementerie of pearls and gold. One of WORTH’S LATEST CREATIONS is a dinner dress for the Duchess of Maribor- ough, the ‘‘American Duchess’’ as she is generally called. The frontand sides ofthe skirt form three panels, cutinto scallops at the edge and finished with tasseled sewing- silk fringe. These panels and the train are in very pale pearl-gray satin, brocaded in a slender but elaborate pattern in gold-yellow, and lined with satinofthat hue. The under- skirt is in gold-yellow satin, laid in flat plaits, finished with tasseled gold-yellow silk fringe, and entirely covered with transparent white silk gauze puton perfectly plain, so as to give acharming softness to the hue and ma- terlal of the underskirt. Worth has a very extensive order to fill for the Duchess, but that one dress was the only one that was fin ished at the time of my visit. The Exhibition continues to attract its mul- titudes of visitors, especially on fete days. Last Monday being a universal holiday, there were 350,000 people there in the course of the day. The elevators on the Eiffel Tower are now in running order, and a good many adventurous persons have already made the ascent. But Jam inclined to think that, like the charges just now at the Parisian hotels, that's too high to be pleasant. The Parisians are beginning to complain that there are not so many foreigners here as had been anticipated. If things go on as they have begun there will be still fewer. Heise is asample of the latest piece of impo- sition, which is a charge at all the restaurants and botels for the use of a knife and fork ateach meal. This charge for the ‘‘courest,’’ as it is called, varies from 10 to 16 cents. And what with the strikes of the cabmen, and their rudeness when they are not on strike, and the difficulty of getting pure water to drink (for we are threatened with a substitu- tion of the Seine water for that of the spring water wherewith we are wsu- ally supplied) Paris is rapidly ceasing to be a paradise of delight, even in view of the charins ofthe Exhibition. By the way, the luckless priests of Marseilles have recent! been forbidden by their Bishop to pay a visit to the Exhibition. Hesays that it is irrelig- ious and that the illuminated fountains in particular are altogether sensual and im- moral. Lucy H. HOOPER. Minnesota’s Drunkenness Law.

One of a woman in Scott county. While Coster and his mother are suffering from their breach of this act, the aristocratic clubmen are yet to be heard from.

LLIAM E St. Louis, June 12, 1889. - BURR, Curator. — — te ee month q PLANS FOR VIADUCTS. EAST ST. LOUIS CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERS PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS. New Features in the Progress of the Town at the East End of the Bridge—A Base Ball Park in Course of Preparation—Talk of an Illinois League. HE Oity Council met in regular session yester- day afternoon and after passing upon the salar. los of officers proceeded to consider the Broaa- way and Trendley avenue viaducts. The city engineer offered several plans, all of which were highly com- plimented by different members of the Council. The Broadway structure will reach from Third street in the Fourth Ward over the Pitts- burg, Short Line and Louisville & Nashville Railroads to John street in the First Ward and will be high enough for the passage of all trains under It. A majority ofthe Council, after. considerable delibera- tion, voted to defer action on the whole mat- ter, and referred it to the Committee on Bridges. The opposition, among the citizens owning property near the proposed bridge, to the erection of the structure has almost died out, and it is quite probable no further action will be taken by the committee who first pro- posed it. A number of property owners along Broadway, however, seriously object to the reconstruction of that thoroughfare and have signed a petition pray- ing the Council to defer improving the same. The only point raised by them in opposition to the action of the Council in at- tempting this much needed work Is the lack of funds on the part of the city and the high rate of taxation which will naturally result from the work. The city answers the argu- ment by stating that taxes are much lower now than formerly, and the increase in value of property will more than compensate for the outlay. Many cellars of that locality are half filled with water during several months of the year, and why these parties should desire matters to run along in the old rut is a mystery which can not be explained by those want to see the town at the east end of the bridge rivalin importance the city on the west. The younger section of the inhab- itants clamor for improvements and work hard for the support of the present adminis- tration when that bodyis so willing to place the city in a position to invite capital from other centers. This reconstruction of the streets, said an old citizen yesterday, ‘‘is the first step in the direction of success. No one but those who desire to accumulate fortunes while others lin- ger along in misery would seriously object to any movement ot the kind. A few years ago the many ponds about this city were sink holes from which the germs of dis- ease rose at night, causing death and sickness on all sides. Now many of them are filled up andthe town is far more pleasant to live in than many suppose. But we must not stop with filling ap oe frog ponds. The city must be elevated beyond the reach of any flood which may at any time sweep us away. When that is done we can say to the outside world, ‘Now look at the new East St. Louis.’’’ Ellen Kelley, a woman who has spent most of her time in jail, was again sent up to-day for a month’s duration. Police Magistrate Harry Davis adjourned court for a few moments yesterday afternoon, in order to bind two hearts. They belonged to Walter Watts and Miss Martha Cog- gins of East St. Louis. The young couple were given a rousin reception by those who came to attend a trial and departed for their new home as quickly as possibie. The sporting fraternity of this city,and many who are not classed in that category, ure high- ly elated over the base ball boom which was recently inaugurated by the advent of J. T. McCaasiand. This gentieman recently arrived from the East, and —— acquainted with the management of city affairs looked upon East St. Louis as a favorable location and quietly invested several thousand dollars. One purchase consisted of a 45-acre tract lying south of Missouri avenue and bounded on the east by the Upper Cahokia road. Upon a por- tion of the land he contemplates the erection oftwenty frame cottages which he will offer for sale on monthly payments. On one ofthe blocks he will construct a grand stand and otherwise improve it for a base ball park. Mr. McCassiand said yesterday that he would spare no money in {fitting up the place and make it one of the finest parks in the country. The place is naturally adapted for such a purpose, being high, level and easy of access. Workmen have already commenced to build a fence about the place and in a week’s time it will probably be ready for business. It isthe desire of the gentleman to procure the service ofa first-class team and fora league of the cities within a radius of one hundred miles. He will request the management of tne St. Louis Browns to open the park before leaving on their Eastern tour and feels confident that the boys of this city will givethem a hearty welcome. A good club can be organized with East St. Louis talent alone,but players will be procured from the most available timber. Young Carroll, who is making quite a record with the Chatta- nooga Club, also 18 Colgan of the same, Sullivan, Kaneand Millard of other outside clubs could be called home and provea great attraction to the new nine. Whether this will be done or not is undecided. Among the various agencies which have con · tributed to the social and intellectual advance- ment of this city, none can claim precedence over the institution founded and conducted by the Y. M. A. atthe Relay Depot. This is especially true with regard to the large rail- way community which the establishment tries to reach and benefit. The association was or- ganized here in 1881 and since that time it has steadily grown in power and influence until now its benefits to the community are recog- nized on all sides. It cannot be said to be sec- - tarian in 9 sense as its constitution special- ly invites all to partake of its benefits without regardto creed or nationality. The well- equipped reading-room in connection with the — yg supplies a pleas- ant rallying point for those who desire to spend a few leisure hours in such a place According to the reports submitted by the secretary atthe last semi-annual meeting a very material growth was shown. The Enter- tainment Committee reported five musical and literary entertainments, two social gath- erings and two popular lectures. The hos- — room in connection with the institution as filled an important place in supplying comfortable quarters for those who were 80 untortunate as to be injured by the cars. The association is under the immediate manage- ment of Samuel Buchanan, as General Secre- tary, with G. G. Maby as assistant. The whole work is under the supervision of an execu: tive committee, with Geo. W. Parke, Presi- dent of the St. Louis, Alton & Terre Haute Railroad, as Chairman. Belleville. On Tuesday next Paymaster Ives will pay off all emploves of the Consolidated Uoal Co. in the section. Miss Alpha Gooding of this city has accepted a position as stenographer with a banking firm of Carmi, III. ol. Reid of Greenville, III., is visiting his old friend, Nathaniel Niles of this city. He returns home next week. Justice Medart fined John Fowler $3 and costs yesterday eveping for creating a dis- turbance on Main street. Rev. Father Budde of St. Peter's Church, who has been seriously Ill for several months, is now able to be about again. Mrs. Theodore Fieishbein, wife of the pope. lar Deputy County Clerk, returned from her Northern trip yesterday evening.

Gass pleaded guilty, thinking that would mitigate the fine. The First Mutual Loan & Building Associa- tion held a meeting last night and placed con- siderable money at the disposal of sharehold- ers. The bidding was quite spirited, and sev- eral thousands sold as high as 25 per cent. Master in Chance W. J. Underwood has just completed the sale ofthe old Ogle prop- erty for $80,000. Besides the property Mr. ogie left money and chattels to the amount of $100,000, to be divided among three children. Frederick Kaemmer diedafew months ago and left‘ his widow a life insurance licy amounting to $700 in the Treubund.

Boatman was granted a preliminary hearing by Justice Medart yesterday evenin onacharge of assault with intent to kill. David MoNulty was the prosecuting witness, but he failed to convince the judge that Boat- 9 Te any harm, and a discharge re- su ’ Judge Snyder yesterday decided a case in chambers which has occupied the attention of the Circuit for many years. The parties were Mary J. Meyers against Joseph and Elizabeth Meyers, her son and daughter. Old man Meyers, a few years ago, previous to his death, conveyed considerable property to his children upon condition that they would pay an annuity to their mother. The old lady claimed that this amount was not equalto what she was justly entitled to, and brought suit to set the whole proceeding aside. The matter was decided in Monroe County some time ago by Judge Wall in favor of Mrs. Mevers, but the children had the ease re-opened and brought before Judge Snyder who decided in favor of the defendants and hoids the conveyance as valid. A FAMOUS TRAGEDY. It Is Recalled By the Death of One of the Principals. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disraren. BALTIMORE, Md., July 6.—A famots tragedy is recalled by the death at Port Huron, Mich., of Mrs. Jonathan Morrison, nee Carrie Her- bert. She was the wife of Ball-player Mor- rison,well known in base ball circles. On ‘July 19, 1884, Mrs. Morrison figured in a tragedy in Baltimore that kept her name before the public for a long time. Just before that date two well dressed youths landed in Toronto and gos up at a leading hotel. They were George . Hazeltine of Jamestown, N. I., and E. 8. Van Witzen of Baltimore. The pair passed a considerable portion of their time in May White’s house, bought champage at $6 per bottle by the case and bestowed many favors oh the landiady and girls. At the end of two weeks the youths invited Mrs, Morrison and Mamie Thorpe, alias Frakle Robinson, who came from Island City, N. T., to go to Balti- more with them. Mrs. Thorpe’s maiden name was Mamie Jackson, she being married toaman named Thorpe, but with whom sbe did not live. May White’s maiden name was Carrie Herbert and she belongad to Utica, N. * When the part landed in this city they went to Pearl Snow’s es- tablishment. They drank freely of wine there and the wind-up was that Hazletine, who was almost crazy with drink, quarreled with Mamie Thorpe about a ring. Finaliy be drew arevolver on the girls and shot Mamie Thorpe dead. Healsotried to kill Mrs. Mor- rison, but only succeeded in wounding her. Hazletine was pardoned before he had served his full term. Mrs. Morrison went back to Toronto after the tragedy and re- mained there until January, 1887, when she went to St. Thomas and there was married to Jonathan Morrison, the center fielder of the Torontos of 1886. The marriage, which was performed by the Rev. Dr. Parker, created a stir in base bail circles. Morrison afterwards — with the Mets of New Lork and other clubs, and he and his wife traveled around a good deal, winding up recently at Port Huron, where she was taken sick and died.

HE thunder which Dis- trict Attorney Reynolds is making atthe Gov- enment building fails to frighten the politicians. Eighty indictment haves been returned against thirty-six defendants for the part they took in the naturalization PY uP trauds of last fall. Capiases have been issued, but only eleven of the accused politicians have given bond. The majority of these were pot arrested, but walked into court attended by their sureties. Notwithstanding the secrecy which is sup- posed to surround the finding of an indict- ment until the accused party is ar- rested, the politicians implicated during the recent investigation seem to be well aware of the fact. They send their emissaries or bondsmen to ascertain the nature of the charge andthen present themselves to give security in the sum of $1,500 each for their ap- pearance on the 3d of September next to an- swer the charge. Conviction under these charges means a sentence to hard labor for not less than one and not more than five years, and a fine ofnot less than $1,000. The postponment of the trials until next fall will necessitate the retention of the force of special investi- gators for several months. Under the new indictinents if their form is held to be legal the Government will have little difficulty in MAKING THE CASES. The defendants are indictea for falsely testi- fying to procure others papers, for fraudu- lently obtaining papers themselves, or for perjury before the Grand-jury, during the in- vestigation of the frauds- The section of the Federal Statutes included in all the indict- ments as covering the fraudulent applications is as follows: Sec. 5395. In all eases where any oath or affidavit is wade or taken under or bv virtue ofany law relat- ing to the naturalization of aliens, or in any proceed- ing under such law auy person taking or making such oath oraffidavit, who knowingly swears falsely, shall be punished by imprisonment not more than five years, nor less than one year, and bya fine of not more than $1,000. It was found that under this section alone it would be necessary to prove the false oath by the questions asked and the answers given. This the Government was unable to do. To give the Government MORE LATITUDE the new indictments cited in addition to this the following section: Sec. 5424, Every person applying to be admitted a citizen, or appearing as witness for any such per- son, who know.ngly personates any other person than himself, or falsely appears in the name or a de- ceased person, or in an assumed, or fictitious name, or faleely makes, forges, or counterfeits any oath, notice, affidavit, certificate, order, record, signature or other instrument, paper or proceeding required or authorized by any law relating to or providing for of aliens, or who utters, sells, disposes of, or uses as true or enuine, for any unlawful . any alse, forged, ante-dated or counterfeit oath, notice, certificate, order, record, signature, instrument, paper or proceeding above specified, or selis or dis- poses of, to any persen other than the person for whom it was originally issued, any certificate of citi- zenship ora certificate showing any person to be ad- mitted a citizen, shall be punished by imprisonment, at hard labor, not less than one year nor more than five years, or by a fine of not less than three hundred nor more than one thousand dollars, or by both such fine and imprisonment. . By including in the indictment Sec. No. 5427 the witnesses who furnished the false testi- mony on which the papers were tecured were ALSO REACHED. This section reads as follows: Sec. 5427. Every person who knowingly and inten- tionally aids or abets any person inthe commission of any felony denounced in the three preceding sec- tions, orattempts to do any act therein made felony or counsels, advises or procures, or attempts to pro- cure the commission thereof, shall be punished in the same manner and to the same extent as the prin- cipal party. Under one of these sections the Government hopes to make a case against each of the de- fendants indicted. To prove that the wit- nesses alded or took any part in procuring the natvralization R to which the applicant was not entitl will make acase under the third section of the law quoted. Yesterday Anton Schuette of 3335 Klein street, of the same name as the man who was referred to inthe statement made by Frank Meyer concerning the Eighteenth Ward Club, for which he heiped to make citizens as far back as 1886, was arrested and gave bond. Ac- cording to the story of Meyer, the man Schuette was the pfesiding spirit in a club which agreed to secure papers free of charge for foreigners, and Meyer, in some way ho cannot explain, bimself was fixed on as the w itness for the applicants.

ALEX. VEST’S ENGAGEMENT. It Is Now Announced That He Will Marry a Young Lady in Montana, It will be a matter of surprise to many in this eity to learn of the announcement of ths engagement of Mr. Alexander Vest, son of United States Senator Vest to a young lady in Montana, the news being received in this city by people who have relatives in the place where Mr. Vest now lives. The announcement of Mr. Vest’s engagement to Miss Katharine Servis, a young lady well known in St. Louis society, was made a couple of months ago, together with the statement that the marriage would occur in a short time. All arrangements had been made for the cere. mony, the only obstacie at the time being the rotest of Mrs, Buck, the mother of Miss ervis. This was 20 strong, how. ever that it was stated that the wedding would not occur at Mrs. Buck's country residence, but at the suburban home of a friend who lived near Mrs. Buck. At the time, Mrs. Buck, with hertwo daughters, the Misses Alice and Katharine Servis, had pur. chased their tickets for a European trip, but it was known that Miss Katharine had resolved to marry Mr. Vest, and abandon her trip abroad. After some days, however, the protests ofthe mother prevailed and the marriage wag broken off entirely. Mr. Vest left suddenly for Montana, where heis engaged in ranch. ing, and Mrs. Buck and her daughters started for Europe, where they are now. The en- gagementto the young lady in Montana ig said to be the outcome of an old love affair. WORK ON THE NEW BRIDGE, A Thorough Inspection Made by President Cobb and His Engineers. President S. W, Cobb and Vice-President C. O. Rainwater of the Merchants’ Bridge Co., accompanied by two of their engineers, last evening visited the site of the bridge and thoroughly inspected the work so far as it nas progressed, finding it entirely satisfactory. The west side pier is just be- ing topped off, while the east side one is almost down to solid rock bottom. The inside caisson work on it will soon be completed, andthe forge will be available for the channel pliers. The caissons for these are cor pleted and afloat ready to be launched as soon as the water falls sufficiently. Presi- dent Cobb says there is no doubt but that the bridge will be completed by the contract time, Junel, 1890. It has now been definitely decided to put ferry cars on the structure, to make regular trips just the same as are made by ferry- boats. This will give North St. Louis as great an advantage asit would receive by the addition of a roadway to the bridge struct- ure. The cars will be builltlow on small wheels, with guards on the side so that there will be no danger of stock jumping over the sides. The contracts for the cars will be let in the fall so that they will be completed and the rolling stock ready for use on June I, so that there will be no delay in the operation of the bridge tracks. Progress of Work at Johnstown. JOHNSTOWN, Pa., July 6.—Contractors Me- Knight and Flynn paid off their men to-day, $15,000 being required. Capt. Hamilton, who succeeds Col. Douglas as Chief Engineer, will assume charge ofthe work to-night. Work- men began this morning removing the big ile of sand from in front of the Cambria Iron Do. s office. The stench from it wasso great that the men were driven away until it had been saturated with disinfectants. No bodies have yet been found in the pile of sand, but it is thought that several will be found. The remains of a child were found at noon in front of the Western Union Telegraph Co.’s office.

From the Boston Herald, For twelve or thirteen years I have been a resident of the United States. Some time ago I determined to study the profession of medi- cine, and when I graduate from the Long Is- land College Hospital, as I expect to do next March, I will have the henor to be the first Chinaman to practice medicine in this coun- try according to the English methods. Pre- vious to attending college I had studied with pr. N. B. Sizer of Green avenue, Brooklyn. Atfirst I did not enjoy my studies, and the operations in the dissecting room at the col- lege were particularly distasteful to me, but J got used to them after awhile. I am specially fond of the theoretical study of anatomy, and last winter spent almost two-thirds of my time in studying this branch. At first 1 found it difficult to understand the English language, and the long medical terms in Latin were hard to remember; bnt by dilligent study and much practice I have succeeded in mastering the language, and can now speak and write it bet- ter than most foreigners. I Wave not decided where I shall settle for practice after I get my „Sheepskin, but the probability 10 I sball return to China, where my chances for professional success would be much better than they would be in this part of the world. Of course, the system of medicine pursued in the Western hemisphere is far superior to that which pre- valls in Cnina, and the more intelligent part of my countrymen freely confesses this fact, and are now Willing to employ the PRACTITIONERS OF MODERN SCHOOLS in preference to the followers of the ancient Chinese methods. In some respects, however, the old method contains the elements of com- mon sense; in the case ofa fever, for in- stance, they give the patient a decoction made out of certain kinds of herbs. This causes pim to perspire freely and the fever will be quickly diminished. The «system of medicine (if h can be called a system) practiced by the Chinese must seem very curious to the inhabitants of the West- ern hemisphere. It is somewhat startiing to learn, for instance, that in China any man can pursue the profession of a physician; no special education or diploma is necessary. Any mau who thinks he is especially empow- ere to care diseases hangs out his sign and waits for patients. If he is successful and has plenty of patients and makes cures, nobody questions that he isalearned man in bis profession. The statement has been made that if, on the other hand, he constantly fails to benefit the peo- plewhoemploy him, if patients constantly grow worse and die on his hands, his neigh- bors and such patients as have withstood he effect of his treatment get together, take down his sign, chopit up and ignominiously drive him from the piace. This is not true. If the physician fails to cure no blame is at- tachedto him. The patient gets another doc- tor. It is not uncommon fer asick person to have three or four doctors prescribing sepa- rately at the same tine. THE MEDICINES OF THE CHINESE have been handed down for many generations back. The Chinese doctor has a curious way ofexplaining how it was discovered that tne several medicines in his pharmacop@la have the properties attributed to them. He wil! tell you that many centuries ago, inthe days when science and art were in their hi state of development in the ery Kingdom, a certain great repute, whose name has come downto the latest generations and always will live, discovered a transparent man. The man seemed to be made of giass, so that every organ, muscle and vein could be looked atand its working be seen. The doctor (so the story goes) took the man and gave him in turn all the berbs that grow, and looked into him and saw how they acted upon his system. All these observations he wrote in a book, and the book has since been the great source of medical knowledge for the Chinese world. Thattne Chinese are large corsumers of medicine may be judged from the number of their drug stores. Such establishments abound in China; in San Francisco there are u score of such establishments, and in and around New York there are probably a dozen. Lyery town in the conutry where there is a settlement of Chinese has its medicine store. Ines places employ three or four men in cutting, mixing and putting up prescriptions and tn decocting and drying the large number of remedies that are gathered from every tource. The assistant examiner of the (hinese customs service not long ago sent to the — States treasury department a Printe low- LIST OF CHINESE MEDICINES exported from Yangtse ports. Among the remedies were tiger s blood, ground biood, bear's gall, asses’ glue, tree bugs, elepbant’s gall, fossil crabs, fossli teeth, fowl’s gizzard, “insects of nine smelis,’’ Job’s tears, cow ir, glass, rhinocerous horns, cow’s kaee, il balls, dragon’s teeth, straw, hedgehog ‘ins, dmed silkworms, snake skins, crab’s eyes, horse tails and centipedes. Inone of the Chinese medical books there isa catalogue of 1,000 medicines, of which there are from metals and stone 138 kinds; from grasses and vegetables (including roots, stocks, leaves, flowers and seeds), 313 kinds; trees (whether the medicine be found in the Toot, trunk, bark, leaf, flower, fruit or seed), iii. The human body ts heid in great venera- tion among the Chinese. I have beard it stated * ; 81 that some of the medicines used in China are taken from the buman ody. This is not the fact, for the Chi- nese have an especial aversion to the desecra- ton of human remains in any way, shape or manner. A large number of their medicines, never, are taken from animals, not less than ninety-one kinds; from fowls and birds, thirty ‘four kinds; from bugs, worme, snakes, “wiel-Dsh, turties, flies, etc., ninety-nine kinds; fruits; forty kinds; of the cabbage, tur- nip and melon families, sixty-two kinds. Chinese druggists generally have on their sheives from 600 to 1,000 different kinds or medicine. Peppermint, in va- mous forms, is a medicine very often used in cola, summer complaints, kidney troubles “4 some liver disorders. It is used externally for neuralgia, rheumatism, toothache and “riping wounds, The Chinese say that eine was discovered by a close observer 2 in the north of China, who noticed that when ste gnimals were troubled with “isorders of the stomach they ate peppermint. He experimented with the pant and discovered its value. Being a thrifty and far-seeing man, he converted his estate into a pepermint farm and he and his ren after him cultivated the plant. They farmished it fresh, dried and in aqueous *xtract, alcoholic extracts and the solidified © Which is now sold in American drug stores under the name of menthol. 1 CHINESE MEDICAL WRITERS do not know of Harvey's theory of the elreu- lation of the blood; they make no distinction bets een venous and arterial blood. Accord- Sto thew theory certain channels lead to different portions of the body, each channel Cominunicating with a particular portion of fhe system. When a medicine is administered, ‘tpasses through one of these channels and Teaches the part of the body upon which it is designed to act. At Pekin there is the model Da bronze man on whieh the theory is illus- trated, and the medical books state that med- ‘ines, no matter whether given singly or in Combination, doctor uses the knife.

FACED THE FIRE. The Story of a Brave Girl. By Mns. BELL BaLL. Smiling and beautiful heaven’s dome Bends softly over our prairie home— Sang Janey Earle softly as she stood with one foot on the threshold, pausing to take a last lingering look at the wide-reaching picture of undulating prairie. It was one of those slumbrous September days witha sky as blue as spring violets and giowing with the shimmering yellow heat of a sun shiningin a sea of azure, unflecked by even the tiniest of cloud islands. „Isn't it beautiful bere, mother?’’ asked Janey, with a lingering emphasis on the word **beautiful,’’ as she stepped inside the door, and, leaning her brown curls agaiast the cas- ing still gazed at the peaceful scene. Not more so than usual is it, child? I thought it rather warm.’’ ‘*I suppose it was even prettier when the prairies were green and spotted with purple and white anemones. I know I thought then that it was the prettiest place on earth. Yet to-day it is quite as lovely to me. Ithink it must be because lam so soon to leave it all that my 3 brighten.’ I don't seem to feel the heat at all. Ishouldn't wonder,“ returned Mrs. Earle avstractedly, as she removed a dozen or more pins from her mouth to the pin cushion on the sewing machine and sent the shears rattling down on the treadie. ‘‘Can you make out whether they are threshing over at Mr. Lane’s to-day? Your father hoped they would not get around there before to-morrow, so that he could help them. Tes, mother, I can hear the hum of the thresher quite plainly. They are burning the straw, too, I think, forthe smoke is curling up over the tops of the cottonwoods. O, mother! there is such a pretty mirage over b the walnut hills. A tiny gem ofa lake wit trees dipping their branches over it, and one, two, three, yes, there are three antelopes drinking at the edge.I can almostsee the white spots on their sides, they look so real. It isn’t much wonder, is it, mother, that the awtul fata morgana led so many travelers astray in the early daysin Kansas? If I didn’t know positively that there is no lake there I wouldn’t beileve that the human eye could be 80 deceived,’’ Well, daughter, I’m ready to fit this dress waist on vou. Mother, dear, you are so dreadfully prac- ticeal, sighed Janey, as she turned reluct- antly from the door. ‘‘I think I'd almost rather never have a new dress than undergo the torture of fitting. How nice it would be if we could only wear draped blankets asthe Indians do, ortwist sheets around us a-ia- Greece, chattered the lovely girl as she made ready for the fitting process. One thing sure, you have not been tried very often in the last two years by dress fit- ting, returned her mother, reprovingly. ‘* *Deed haven't, mumsy, dear. I think the very infrequency of the operation has made it more irksome.’’ But you surely want Dur dress to fit nicely, Janey, and you know its the only one you can have this winter,’’ said Mrs. Earie with a half-breathed sigh,as she rose from her seat at the machine. Nov, don’t I know that, little mother, and don’t I know, too, how you nave pinched and saved to get even this plain cushmere? Not only all summer, but all winter you will have to economize that I may goto school.

By way of reply, the loving mother brushed her lips against the rounded bare arm 80 temptingly near and placed the last pin in its piace in the dress front. Never mind, mother dear, you shall have a chariot and four when I get rich—teaching school. These last words were uttered as Janey slowly turned before the small mirror, scruti- nizing the ‘‘set’’ of her dresswaist. ‘*‘I think it will fitnicely, mother, with a little taking up onthe shoulders and cutting out in the armboles; and, yes, I am quite sure, it will have to be taken up in the under arm seams.’’ The question of taking up“ and ‘‘letting a book and sat ust then a puff of wind came scurrying through the house, scattering papers and sewing in every direc- tion, and slamming the doors too with a bang. Janey hastened to pick up her mother’s work, then opened the north door and looked anxiously out. ‘*Mother, the wind is rising, and the straw- stacks at Mr. Lane’s are biazing up above the If the wind should change, it will mean mischief for us. I wish our fire guards were broken. The north and east fields won’t protect us, forthe corn is as dry as powder, the fire run in there it would take * and shoul ‘*‘I think you are needlessly worried,’’ said Mrs. Earle as she glanced toward Farmer Lane’s and then went on placidly at Ler work. ‘*The wind is not high and the fireis confined Just then the clock rung out the hour of 5 and Mrs. Earle glanced upanxiously. ‘‘Why, I didn’t know it was so late. What can be keeping the children?“ „Playing on the road, I suppose, replied Janey as she energetically went about setting the room to rights. In moving about the room Mrs. Earle passed the open door and paused with a ter- Heaven help sweeping down toward the railroad.’’ It isn’t coming this way?’’ criea Janey as se sprang to her mother’s side. No, but if the wind changes to the North, which it is certainiy doing, it will prove cer- tain destruction for us. ‘*] wish Tom and Dell were at home. If the fire goes at that rate long it will leapthe trail and it might rup them down,’’ said Janey in her excitement. »The poor, helpless babies, what can we do?“ cried Mrs. Earle. ‘*T think we can trust Tom to get through all richt, so don’t fret, replied Janey, sooth- ingly. ‘*We must try to do something to save house.

If I can turn two furrows we can back fire, and keep it from spreading by using wet sacks.’’ But the children, Janey?’’ ‘*Tom can take care of Dell, mother. Unless the wind changes again they are safe, but the fire is eating this way.’’ Janey sped away to the draw, where the mules were browsing onthe rich brown grass. A kick or two vigorously applied soon loosened the picket pins, and catching up one lariat rope, Janey threw it over the neck of one of the mules, leaving a long loop. the 2 firmly under the animal’s throat. she placed her foot in the impromptu stirrup and vaulted lightly on its back. She reached the house on a quick gallop, the other mule following close behind. With practiced fingers Janey flung the har ness on the team, and hooked ittothe sulky plow that stood in the breaking furrow, just as her father had left it that morning when summoned away on business. ‘‘Janey the ground is too hard, you can’t turn a furrow with the mules alone, inter- posed her mother, ‘‘Why don't you get „don't know where he is.

Janey skirted round it to the north, feeling sure that the children would have sense enough to take the north trail instead of the south one, which ley diréctly in the path of the flames. She was soon rewarded by seeing two figures 97 — along over the brow of the hill, and heading toward them, soon stood beside the truant couple. Where on earth have you children been, and what are you crying about, Dell?’’ she demanded a little savagely, her spirits rising, now that the worst danger seemed over. „„Oh, she is such a cry-baby!

You know I wasn’t afraid for us, but, oh, Janey,’’ turning her dirty, woe-begone little face to the tender older sister, Dolly went over to the big ravine, and I most know she will be burned up, ‘cause she is so poky. She was the best friend I had, and I slapped her just dreadful this morning cause she wouldn’t 4 me the biggest piece of candy. O-oo-ve if Dolly dies I'll die too; I knowl will;’’ and burying ber face in Janey’s damp dress she walled in a most dolorous fashion. Come, Dell, d your eyes. I'll take you and Tom home and then go after Dolly. Here, Tom, put Dolly on in front of me and you climb on behind. Breté won't like it, but I uess hell have to stand it. What possessed olly to go home by the ravine? It's a mile out of her way.’’ „„We didn't want her to go that way, but she said there was a nest of cotton tails down there and she wanted to take them home,’’ sobbed Dell. »The hateful little city irt, broke in Tom. ‘*I was going with her to carry em home if she'd go havers, and she said she didn’t like to go with barefooted boys. And I told her she didn’t haf to. I don’t care nothin’ girls nohow, he added defiantly. Janey was too busy with her thoughts to an- wer, and the sure-footed Brete soon took them home, where Mrs. Earle gathered the children to ber beart with an inward prayer of thanksgiving. Janey only paused long enough to dip the blanket once again in the trough, then spread- ing it full length over Brete, she jumped on — back and called to Tom to bring her the other. „MW hat in the dickins are you going todo now, Jane?’’ asked the irrepressibie as he obeyed her order.

Just think, it might have been Dell, you know; I won’t de in much danger. Ifthe fire comes tocioselhave my wet blankets, and if lam surrounded I can cover up in them and turn Brete loose. I have my matches to use in case I can.’’ As she rode away she felt the wind chang- ing, thus bringing the fire more directiv to the ravine, tow which she was speeding, and at the same time menacing the little for home. She looked back just once and the fleeting glimpse was never forgotten. The sun, like a great yellow ball laziiy sliding down the western sky, was flooding the prai- rie and far distant hilis in mellow light. Away to the north the trees on Ash Ureek stood out een and tall and east of them lay the blackened prairie over which the flames just swept; behind her lay the little farm with its broad acres of rip- ened corn, while just before her, each moment lessening the distance, leaped and roared the prairie fire, writhing and twisting through the taller grass like so many fiery serpents. Be- tween it and her lay the oid Santa Fe trail, grass-grown now and a weak barrier to such an element. Slight it was it mattered not to her, for she had to cross it to reach the ra- vine. Setting her teeth hard she urged Brete on, crossing the trail and heading for the ravine, which was only a fe rods away. The fire was perilously near, but just before ber she saw the small figureof a child scrambling over the bank and knew it was Dolly. Brete was snorting and almost unmanageable from fear, and just on the edge of the ravine a blazing tumble weed borne on the wind fell in front of him.He gave a frightened plunge, which sent both horse and rider rolling to the bottom of the deep row Half stunned by the fall, Janey attempted to rise but found it impossible because of the pain in her ankle. At her side lay the faithful pony, his head doubied under him and neck broken. Dolly with her dinner basket heid tight in her hand, was half rolling, half sliding down the bank after her. „O, Miss Janey, I was so afraid somebody wouldn't come and my rabbits would get burned, Just see em, and drawing aside the napkin, she showed Janey three little cot- ton tails nestling in the tiny basket. ‘‘You’ll take care of us now, won’t you Miss Janéy?’’’ she asked confidingly as she put the napkin carefully back. Dear child, returned Janey tenderly, in an agony of pain, and griet for her dead pony, I' do my best for vou, but you must do just as I tell you. Can you unbuckie Brete’s girth?’’ „I'm ’fraid to; he’s so dead. Janey smiled a little bitterly. ‘‘Well, per- haps I can do it;“ and, working her way to his side, she unfastened the girth and by much tugging pulled the bianket off, the tears raining down on his pretty mane. A shrill screamin from Dolly roused her from her bitter reflections. 0, Miss Janey, the fire is most to us. „God help us then,’’ thought the poor girl as she called Dolly to her. ‘‘Now sit down to you you must cover all up with it. If you swaliow any of the hot air it will kill you.’ Dolly began tocry as she gingerly seated herself on the wet blanket. It's so nasty and damp, Miss Janey,’’ she sobbed. „Be thankful for that.

Dr. Wrightly, of St. Mary's on the Hill, Episcopal, sald that the move- ment was a species of crankism and fanaticism with which the church wouid have nothing to do. Fermented of the grape was what he would keep on using. Rev. Mr. Hyde of All Saints sald he would not dare use a substitute for fermested wine. Rev. Dr. Mitchell of the First Presbyterian Church said that the Savior knew what he was doing when he advised the use of fer- mented wine and that this movement was zeal begotten of ignorance aud impertinence. Other ministers refused to alter their present course and very few were found who will use anything but reai wine. Miniature Race War. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPaTcH.

Ge JUST SOUTH OF OLIVE. “Se Big Four Appointments Announced—The Pennsylvania Meetsthe B. & O. Cut, By Telegraph to the Post-DIspratcr. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 6.—Wm. A. Sulli- van has been appointed Indianapolis Freight Agent of the Big Four Bee Line system, and T. J. Helm assistant agent. These gentlemen have held the same positions under the old Big Four for some time. Though there has been a division ofthe new offices among the old employes of both roads,the general im- pression seems to be that up to date the Bee Line men have had a little the best of it. The announcement of the force of passenger men will probably be made early next week and then John H. Martin, Tom Peck, C. J. Dixon, Louis Drake and Col. ‘‘Bill’’ Hickin will be relieved of suspense and possibly some of them will simultaneously be relieved also of positions. resident Ingalis has announced the appoint- ment of Robert Blee as General Superintend- ent; Oscar G. Murray, Traffic Manager and Edward Hill purchasing agent of the Cairo, Vencinnes & Chicago division of the consolida- tion. This places all the roadsin the system under the control of these four general offi- cers. J. J. Fletcher, formerly general freight and passenger agentof the C. V. 4 C. road, has been appointed its general freight agent with headquarters at Cairo. Though the freight business of the Consolidation will be under the sole control of Mr. Sullivan the business of the Big Four and Bee lines will be kept distinct and be carried on at their re- spective freight houses forthe present. This is to avoid confusion among shippers and new officers. In the announcement of Super- intendents George W. Bender was put down as Superintendent of the Chicago division. Many persons have understood this to mean that his division extends from In- dianapolis to Chicago, but the fact is it is the entire C. I., St. L. & C. Road, extena- ing from Cincinnati to Chicago. His place is precisely what it was before the consolidation was effected. The combined system now in- cludes 1,468 miles of road. The Bee Line con- tributed 738 miles, the Big Four 469 and the C., V. & C. 261 miles. The New Pacific Coast Line. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPaATCH. BUFFALO, Wyo., July 6.—A few weeks ago a special from Pierre, S. Dak., to the Post- Dis- PATCH told of the departure of a corps of sur- veyors under Geo. M. Nixfor the purpose of running a preliminary Une to the Pacific coast. The work was to be done for the Pa cific Midland, an organization said to be strongly backed by the Illinois Central. This corps of surveyors arrived in Buffalo Tues- day afternoon, and have since been busy in the hills and canons west of the clty. Messrs. Nix and Corvett left yesterday with a local guide to determine whether a pass can be found across the range at this point. The Big Horn Mountains extended north and south through the center of this (Johnson) county for a distance of 100 miles, directly east of Yel- lowstone Park, the highest peak thereof be- ing 10,000 feet above sea level. An East and West line passing through the richest coal, oll, agricultural and timber lands of Wyoming must necessarily crossthe Big Horn range, and yesterday’s examination of the topogra- phy of the country resuited in establishing the certainty that a road can be constructed with ease across them ona 2 per cent. grade beginning at Buffalo. It was further estab- lished by the engineers thatit will be neces- sary to ascend to an altitude of but 8,500 feet. From here the surveyors traverse the Big Horn basin to thelower edge of Yellowstone Park, on their way to the Pacific Coast. That Commodity Tarif. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsSPATCH. Sr. PAUL, Minn., July 6.—The commodity tariff went into effect yesterday, and will now become a probable casus belli, although there has been no move made toward extending its territory. That the latter will de done, how- ever, is regarded as a foregone conclusion by freight men. „do not see how it can be otherwise, said afreight official, ‘‘if its territory is not extended discrimination will be charged and complexities arise which it will be rather difficult to dispose of. In that event there will be a general struggle which will result disastrously. The commodity tariff was not the product of wisdom.’’ There is every probability that these rates will be extended graduailyto the Missouri River. The reads are between the devil and the deep sea. On one side is an apparently inevitable rate war extending over wider and wider territory day by day; on the other is the sword of Jadge Cooley et al. sus- pended over their heads. It is coneeded on almost all sides that the schedule isa mis- take, andiftbe Burlington was to blame for proposing it, the other roads were equaily foolish in accepting it. The only beneficiaries of the commodity tariff are the Lake Superior lines. The 66 cent through rate will go into effect on the lake and rail lines on the 15th, and will enable them to work at a profit, * President Ingalis Crit ieised. BALTIMORE, Md., July 6.— The Baltimore & Ohio Ratiroad will in a few days Mle its appli- cation with the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion fora decision by a full board as to the legality of the 2 cents a mile for parties of ten or more. The company withdrew the reduced rate yesterday as stated last night at the re- quest of Judge Cooley, Chairman of the Inter- state Commerese Commission. When a B. 4 O. executive was shown the dispateh to-day relating that President Ingails of the Big Four bad ordered that rates on grain trans- portation over bis tines be quoted a cent or two below the reduced rate of the B. 4 O. he id said: Well, its — funny to behold Ingalls doing the screeching act when be bas all along been slashing rates right and left. With his interest in the Chesapeake 4 Ohio road he * — to carry all the grain he could to Newport News, Va., for shipment to Europe, and we having no lake connections at all, were obliged to quote a low rate in order to get grain freight. If we bad not made this low rate the Baltimore steamers would be lying in the harbor in a week or two without a prospect of a cargo. Tyler’s Enterprising Move.

The B. & O. Cut Met. By Telegraph to the Post-DIspatcu. PHILADELPHIA, Pa,, July 6.—The Pennsyl- vania Rallroad has issued a tariff on wheat and corn, reducing the rates to a basis of 20 cents per 100 to New York. This is in Son- formity with the cut made by the B. & O., which went into effect to-day. No reduction has been made to New England pointe, Local rates have not been reduced. he fight has greatiy disturbed the trunk line officials, al- though many of them still believe that the low rate is purely experimental, and that the B. & O. will soon abandon it. Texas Freight Kate Convention. By Telegraph to the PFosr-Dis raren. DaLLas, Tex., July 6.—Delegates were ap- pointed to-day to the State Freight Rate Con- vention on the 8th.

The decline of prefessional bicycle racing can be seen by comparing the condition of the professional bicycle rider of a year ago with that of to-day. Almost twelve months ago some were winning laurels tor themselves and their mother country in foreign fields, and now, by their own foolish actions are forced to work at diflerent trades to earn their daily bread. If Rowe had not entered into that fatal compact with Temple he might still be winning tame upon the race track instead of standing behind acounter ina little grocery store at Lynn. Temple would probably be in training for dnother international race instead of working for a living selling wheels. Alley, the backer of Rowe, is still at his old business in Lynn, while the inventive brain of Morgan sugested to him the idea of running the fe- male six-day tournaments, and as he was the originator of the idea of course he had to be mnanager, or, as an old trainer expressed it, „the manager and trainer of female bi- cyclists.’’ Inthis position he is assisted by Tom Eck, who gained such notoriety by the alarming manner in which his ‘‘chronom- eter’’ tolled off the minutes. Crocker, in- stead of building up his fameas a racer, is dil gently at work erecting a house in New- ton, while Whittaker, who greatly desires to become an amateur, is selling wheels for a Chicago firm. Knapp and Neilson are said to be on their way East. Such are the different trades these men whose names were once courtesies tendered them by the Chicago boys during their stay-over on Friday. Againsta fiela of nearly ninety competitors the Pastimes team of four captured two second medals—in the 220 and 1,000 yards races—both won by D. L. Cabanne. The team was entered in but five out of the nineteen events. In the 100 yards race Reber from the 4-yard mark was but a foot behind the winner of the heat, who started from the 44-yard mark, and fin- tshed in 10 seconds. Athletic Notes, W. C. Dohn’s record of Im. 55%s. the ½ mile has not yet been verified. Capt. Price and Vice-President Murphy de- serve great credit for the success of their games. Reber of the Pastimes ran very well in Chicago, but was a little too heavily handi- capped. The members of the Detroit Athletic Club have a peternal respect for Mr, Eddy, their president. The Olympics believe in a progressive pol- icy, and will give an open meeting on the first convenient date. Cary is a grand runner and is a gure 10 1-5- second man. His ungainly gait has been greatly exagerated. President Deffry of the Pastimes officiated as one of the judges at the Wanderers’ games at Chicago on the 4th. What a clinker of a race Keary, Kennedy for who have signed the agreement and who have already received full pay for their certificates, representa very large majority, and there will be notrouble whatever in carrying out the — agreed upon. As already stated in the PosT-DISPATCH the abandonment at this time requires only a majority vote, while after this year toa period twenty years after the death of the last ata og member of the original Board of Trustees it would require 90 percent. The Laciede meeting on Wednesday will also be a mere formality, and will be for the purpose of voting on a Pg rar 1 to in- crease the capital stock and bond issues and the purchase of the other gas properties in the city. After that everything will be under the Laclede management, and arrangements will be made immediately for the erection of a large electric light plant and the enlargement and modernizing of the old St. Louis Gas- Lignt Oo.’s plant, as has already been de- tailed in the Post-DISHATOCH, AN IRATE WIDOW.

This tele- gram was sent to Morrill this morning and then Mr. Hewitt telephoned the news to President Young. This action will be some of a surprise to the local base ball public, not so much on account of Morrill’s going but be- cause his release is unconditional and does not net the home management a cent. Mr. Hewitt sdmitted to-day that he had released Morrill, aud hid: Ihave done this thing after the met careful consid- eration and after long deliberation. 1 believe it to be for the dest inter- ests of our team or I should not have done it. The fact that Morrill was of no use to the team, either asa playcr or a mana- ger, was apparent some time ago, but I held onto him and gave him every chance in the world to do his best. He had absolute control of the team, and I followed out his sug- gestion in every instance. I put not a straw in his way and treated him as squarely as a ball layer was ever treated. He did not fill the ill, that's all. I waited as long at I could and then gave him an honorable discharge. Ido not think that he had any idea of my in- tention, but he certainly could not expect to go on in the way he has. He had ceased to gureasan element in the team and was worse than no man at all, for folks kept ex- pecting him to pick up and he falied to do it. Mr. rwin will be Captain of the team and for the present what Little managing there is to be done will be decided between him and us here.

By Telegravh to the POST-DIsPATcn. S10Uux City, Io., Juiy 6.—The Sioux Commis. sion is meeting with good success in securing signatures to the bill opening the big reserva. tions. They are now at Crow Creek agency, just above Chamberlain, where probably two orthree days will be spent in getting the necessary number of signatures. They got 300 signatures at Lower Brule in three days, nine-tenths of the Indians there signing. At Flandeau, Maj. Chas. Hill of Santee Agency, Nebraska, who wus senttnere by the Sloux Commission to ob- tainthe signature ofthe Flandeau Indians, has been very successful. Out of seventy-four Indians, sixty-eight had signed, two have re- fused to sign and four are away from home. A wrong impression has gone forth as to the number of signatures necessary. Icis not required that three-fourths ofthe indians at each agency sign, but only that three- fourths the whole number of Indians sign the bill. More than enough were secured at Roseland, Lower Brule and Flandeau and these will make up for lesser number got at Pine Ridge. There is some op- position at Crow Creck from one of the lead- ing chiefs, White Ghost, the head chief who would not be interviewed and will not in any way commit himself. Last year he opposed the bill very bitterly, but he was one of the delegates to Washington and was one of the chiefs who helped frame the present bill, and on this account itis reasonable to suppose he will not be antagonistic to the bill this year. FAVORS ANNEXATION, A Prominent Canadian Who Has Pronounced Views. By Telegraph to the Post-DisPpatcn. Sr. Paul, Minn., July 6.—In an interview here to-day Robert Jaffray, proprietor of the Torento Globe, speaking about annexation said: ‘*I am a British subject, but I am first of all Canadian and am working for what 1 cons sider will benefit Canada. Look at the prose perity of Buffalo and Detroit, and then at the comparative stagnation of Erie and Windsor. The same comparison can be made along the whole boundary line prosperous, wealthy cities on the American side, dead, poor cities on the Canadian, There is, as a result of this and other palpable evidence, a verystrong sentiment springing up in the Dominion in favor of annexation. This is much stronger and wider spread than most people have an idea of. The principal opposition to it comes from the leading man- ufacturers. I¢ would be directly to Canada’s benefit to be annexed to the United States, and I consider it would also be a benefit to En- gland, to which Canada is a source of expense and weakness. The thinking men are all sid- ing in with us in our efforts to obtain commer- cial union—that is the first step toward polit- ical union.’’ ELOPED.

Atthe same moment an obstacle presented itselfto her mind which Iris had thus far failed to foresee. Lord Harry might approach the llestone by three different ways: that is to san. by the road from the town or by the road from the open country or by way of the fi and the culvert.

She was on the point of turning, to get back tothe road, when something on the dark sur- face ofthe field, which looked le la darker Shadow, became Cimly visible.

After ooking at the prisoner’s delicate wrists by the lantern-light, he put his fetters back in 's pocket. A lady—and no doubt about it, © said to one of bis assistants. The two men waited with a mischievous in- forest in seeing what he would do next. The st oftheir pious officer’s virtues included a Ponstitutional partiality for women, which ex- ‘bited the mereiful side of justice when a criminal wore a petticoat. ‘‘We will take you — Sir Giles, Mies,“ he said—and offered his rm instead of offering his handcuffs.

An Irnshman who paid his landlerd was a traitor to his coun Irishman try; an o asserted his free birthright in the land that he walked on was an enlightened patriot. Such was the new law which the reverend gentleman expounded to his atten- tive audience. If his brethrenthere would like him totelithem how they wight apply the law, this exemplary Christian would point to the faithless Irishman, Arthur Mountjoy. Buy not of him; sell not to him; avoid him if he approaches you; starve him out ofthe place. I might say more, boys—you know what I mean.’’ To hear the latter part of this effort of oratory, without uttering a word of protest, was a trial of endurance under which Iris trembled. The secondary effect ot the priest’s address was to root the conviction ot Arthur’s danger with ten-fold tenacity in her mind. After what she bad jus heard, the slightest delay in securing his safety might be productive of deplorable results. She astonished a bare-footed boy, on the outskirts ot the crowd, by a gift of sixpence and asked her way to the farm. The littie Irishman ran on before her, eager to show the generous lady how useful he could be. In less than half an hour Iris and her maid were at the door ofthe farm-house. No such civilized inventions 1 4 hte ns a knocker ora beil. The boy used his knuckles instead and ran away when he heard the lock ofthe door turned on the inner side. He was afraid to be seen speaking to any living creat- ure who inhabited the ‘‘evicted farm. A decent old woman appeared and inquired suspiciously *‘what the ladies wanted. The accent in which she spoke was unmistakably English. When Iris asked for Mr. Arthur The Sergeant confessed that it was not a Mountjoy the reply was: Not at home.

What does this mean?“ of answering, she looked at the Sergeant. The Sergeant, conscious of responsibility, stood his ground and looked at Sir Giles. His face confessed that his Irish sense of humor was tickled, but he sbowed no intention of leaving the room. Sir Giles saw that Iris would enter into no expianation in the man’s presence. Tou needn’t wait any longer, he said. „„What amI todo, if you please, with the prisoner?’’ the Sergeant inquired. Sir Giles waived that unnecessary question away with his hand. He was trebly responsi- ble—as knight, banker, and magistrate into the bargain. ‘‘I will be answerabie,’’ he ro- plied, ‘‘for 2 Miss Henley, if called upon. Good night.’’ The Sergeant’s sense of duty was satis- fied. He made the military salute. His gallantry added homage to the young lady under the form ofa bow. Then, and then only, he walked with dignity out of the room. Now, Sir Giles resumed, I presume lI may expect to receive an explanation, What does this impropriety men? What were you doing at mile-stone?’’ „I was saving the person who made the ap- ointment with you. Iris said; the poor ellow who had no ill-will towards you—who had risked everything to save your nephew’s life. Oh, sir, you committed a terrible mis- take when you refused to trust that man!’’ Sir Giles had anticipated the appearance of fear, and the reality of humble apologies. She had answered him indignantly, with a heightened color, and with tears in her eyes. His sense of his own social importance was wounded tothe quick. ‘‘Who is the man you are speaking of?“ he asked loftily, ‘*And what is your excuse for having gone to the mitestone to save him—hbidden under my cloak, disguised in my hat?’’ Don't waste precious time in asking ques- tions!’’ was the desperate reply. ‘‘Undo the harm that you have done already. Your help —oh, Imean what I say!—may yet preserve Arthur’s life. Goto the farm and save him.’’ Sir Giles’ anger assumed anew form; it in- dulged in an elaborate mockery of respect. He took hie waten from his oket and con- Must make au ex- cuse?’’ he ask No! you must go.“ Peru it me to inform you, Miss Henley, ‘‘What does that matter.

Oh, es; he knows it paw dear, as well as I do. ut there!—men like him are such perverse creatures. He takes his rides just as usual. No; be won't listen to an old woman like me; and, ‘as for friends to advise him, the only one ot them that has darkened our doors is a scamp who had better have — away. You may have heard tell of him. The old Earl, his wicked father, used to be called by a bad name. And the wild young lord is his father’s true son.

The housekeeper did not attempt to conceal the impression that had been produced upon ber. I hope you don’t know such a vagabond as that?r’’ she said very seriously. Perhaps you are thinking of his brother—the eldest son—a respectable may, as I have been told?’’ Miss Henley passed over these questions without notice, Urged by the interest in her lover, which was now wore than ever an in- terest beyond her control, she said: ‘‘Is Lord Harry in danger on account of his friend?’’ He has nothing to fear from the wretches who infest our part of the country,’’ Mrs. Lewson replied, ‘* re Says he’s one of themselves. The police—there’s what his young lordship has to be afraid of, if all's true that’s said about him. Anyhow, when he paid his visit tommy master, he came se- cretly like a thief in the night. And I heard Mr. Arthur, while they were together here in the parlor, loud in blaming him for something that he had done. No more, Miss, ot Lora Harry! Ihave something particular to say to you. Supvose I promise to make you com- fortable—will you please walt here till to-mor- row, and see Mr. Arthur aud speak to him? If there’s a person living who can persuade him to take better care of himself,I do believe it will be you.“ Iris readily consented to wait for Arthur Mountjoy’s return. Left together, while Mrs. Lewson was attending to ber domeatic duties, the mistress noticed an appearance of preoc- cupation in the maid’s face.

PRESENT CONDITION OF THE GRAIN, PRO- VISION, FINANCIAL AND STOCK MARKETS. “Old Hutch’? Holding July Wheat — The Bear and Bun Struggle for Supremacy— Chicago Markets From a Conservative Standpoint—How the Board of eo Was Wall Street Notes on Financial Matters— St. Louis Marketse—The Corner Rule Goasip and Notes. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatcn. — HICAGO, July 6.— Trading was active in the Chicago wheat pit all the week, or at least as much of it as was not devoted to ele- brating the glori- ous Fourth, out- ting in and inter- rupting the daily kite-filying on the board with its balloons and pyrotechnics. The chief feature and sensation of the week was supplied by the nervous and irregular up and down action of the July delivery. Visions of last September loomed up belore the appre- hensive eyes of the unfortunate shorts who found themselves once more in the hands of their arch-enemy, Hutchinson. The old man has July as tight as wax, but on the eve of plentiful supplies of the new wheat he dare not push his advantage beyond a certain limit at this early period of the month. Should circumstances favor him, however, about three weeks from this time some dolorous howling of disgruntled bears may perchance recall the scenes enacted towards the closing days of September, 1888. The bulis have hadgmuch in the shape of strong points in the situation, apart from the machinations of Old Hutch,’’ to — encourage them in the hope for higher prices. The crops in Austria, Hungary and Russia are seriously damaged by the long prevailing drouth in those coun- tries. There is now no longer any doubt on this point, and Australian deficiencies, to- gether with the failure of the wheat crop in the Argentine Republic, taken altogether, will require much on the other side to offset their effect on the bull side of the market. But the bears have not been without arguments to support their views of the probabilities of a lower range of prices to be brought about by a superabundance of wheat, though the parties who keep their eyes fixed upon the points just enumerated may be excused if they canuot see from whence it is to come. Beginning at home, the bears claim acrop of 500, 000, 000 bu, even If there shouid be no more spring wheat than was raised last year, but they say, allowing for considerable damage in Dakota from drouth, the growth in other sec- tions promises an abundance sufficient to off- setin agreat measure the spotted condition of affairs in the drouth-stricken State. This view is upheld by a well-known crop expert, who, at asalary of $1,000 per month, paid to him in equal proportions by Ream, Cudahy, Linn and Pillsbury traverses the wheat belt of the country and keeps them posted on the sit- uation. The three gentlemen first named are the leading bears in the market and they have many followers who look for December wheat selling in August orsooner at or under 78e per bu. The excellent quality of the winter wheat already harvested goes a long way to support the expert referred to in his estimate of that portion of the orop at least. A weight of 63 lbs per bu is said to be common this year in Kansas and a continuation of the present dry weather in the Southwest will allow of free threshing and good grading before another ten days. Inthe meantime Minneapolis millers are clamoring for suppliesto keep their mills going, and were buying in St. Louis and Chicago Satur- day. They bought 5,000 bu of No. 2 spring in Chicago at 850 f. o. b. cars for immediate shipment, and are said to have taken four times that quantity of red winter wheat in the St. Louis market. Large quantities were Dought here daily for interior mills, 90,000 bu having been worked for them to-day. There is in the present situation an excellent opportunity fora difference of opinion and some tall betting is likely to result, promising a good business to commission men during the present season. The visible supply is ex- ected to showa decrease of about 1,500,000 ushels on Monday. Clearances from the four principal Atlantic ports last week were: Wheat, 21,900 bao, a decrease of 185,850 1,066,100 du, a decrease cf 103,850 sks, a decrease of 87,750 sks. The range of prices for the week was: July 79%c to 84%, opeoing at 805¢c and closing at S2%c, and De- cember 79\%sc to 81%c, opening at 80 and closing at 800. The closing price for July and December on Saturday, June 29, were respect- ively sic and 80%c. The Board of Trade was eternaily knocked out by three judges yesterday. Each and every one of them took a kick at the board and what one forgot to say that would hurt the others remembered. Judge Collins was par- ticularly caustic and his opinion was in i- rect line with the view expressed in these letters, viz., that the Supreme Court having held that it was a monopoly to restrict quota- tions to 1,500 correspondents it was an aggra- vation of the offensiveness of the monopoly to further restrict the number to 190, all mem- bers of the board. It did not make a man any more or less any part of the public because he might belong or not belong to Chicago Board of Trade. In fact it made no difference Whatever in his relations to the public. Judge Horton, though ee kindly disposed to the — was equally plain-spoken, while the stern old jurist, Judge Tuley, stated that he would have taken even more advanced views than either of bis associates if he had written an opinion. He intimated that he might, if urged real good and strong, order the board to furnish the public with the results of the rations carried on on the floor of the e. He would hardly go that® far, but he indicated plainiy that he had it in for the board and would like a chance at it on a new refused to modify the language of the injunction decree so as to permit the board to quit the quotation business, though he said that when he was assured = — 0 * Collins and Horton, listen this point.

Knocked Out on the Quotation Question— 7 The rise in the general list which followed the event has been pretty well wiped out, leading stocks like the grangers, Union Pacific and Atchison having closed yesterday anywhere from 8 to 10 points below the highest prices of June. Atebison shows more decline than any of the others and not unnaturally, as it is probably worse off financially than any of the. other 2b pap controlling a large mileage. When this stock broke to 0 last week it was the signal of a fierce onslaught upon the combinations were formed for the purpose of forcing out big and little bulls on the strength of the r ad complications. Every speculative holder of stocks is supremely disgusted at the supineness of certain officials who are — 2 with subserving their itions to their in- terests in the stock market. What the upshot of the squabble at the West is going to be no one can tell until after the Interstate Railway Association, which will meet on Tues- day next, gets through with its delibera- tions. The details of this meeting will probably make one of the most interest- ing chapters in the history of railroads in this or any other country. The result, too, will be far-reaching. The association was brought into existence by the poverty of the roads, which were forced last year to come down in their rate of dividends. A number of them have since found the organization so bene- ficial that they have become its most zealous supporters, whereas at first they vigorously opposed the scheme. If the originators of the latter had not thought the union the most feasible thing under the cir- cumstances, it is hardly probable that the roads would have consented to guarantee Chairman Walkerasalary of $25,000 per an- numfor three years. Although this in itself is a big item there are people who consider it amere bagatelle when compared with the time and labor they have expended to bring the railways together on a peace footing. The bankers, for instance, identified with the re- form movement would not think of undertak- ing any ordinary venture as they have for many years confined themselves to coiossal deals in which the legitimate profits and speculative chances were enormous. Thoy have never yet failed to accomplish their aims and a miscarriage of the ‘*gentie- men’s agreemeat’’ will rob themof a good deal of prestige, as all the dispatches have painted the situation at the West a dismal whole market, and color. An impressioh prevails in some quar- ters that a war isa foregone conclusion, how. ever much certain roads may be willing to concede for the sake of harmony. If the case were not a desperate one it would really seem as though the presidents might save them- selves the trouble of meeting on the 9th inst., but as a war now means wide- spread disaster there is just a dare 8 that the roads which have been making all the trouble may at the last moment decide to back down rather than to bear the odium which open hostility to the agreement would entail. There areeven more cogent reasons why the recaicitrants may so decide. The crop prospects arc excellent and in some places are already assured. ” + There is still another phase of the situation which is attracting the attention of thought- ful people, and to which reference was made some weeks since—namely, the tendency which + a war would have to bring about consolidations on a large scale. Prominent railroad men are of the eg that the great systems will eventually be brought under one control and that in this way the saving inthe cost of operating and the check which would be put upon the con- struction of parallel lines would counteract the unfavorable influences against which well managed properties have had to contend fora longtime. A war, they say, will hasten such a condition by forcing the weaker lines to the wall and compelling them to enter into such aschowe at fair valuation. The Baltimore & Ohio cut in grain rates Is a fresh disturbing element. lines, however, since the West Shore settle- ment have had comparatively little difficulty in straightening out matters, and the Joint Executive Committee at their meeting to- morrow is expected to take action that will prevent general demoralization of rates this side of Chicago. These roads, so far as their dividend-earning power is concerned, are but little better off than their Western conneo tions, and to disturb local tariffs for the sak of getting through traffic, which is alwayslig while navigation is open, would be very much like committing hari-kari.

The case being so critical the question may well be asked: ‘‘Will not the managers atthe last moment conclude to resume peaceful relations?’’ As a definite conclusion will be reached ina few days, it does not seem to be a good time to be either long or short of the market to any great extent.

These were ic for July, %c for A t and September and le for De- cember below the preceding Saturday’s close. All the latest returns from the flelés indicate that this week’s threshing will be in full blast everywhere that the wheat has not already been threshed out. The great bulk of the winter wheat crop will not be ready for market before the latter part of this month. Receipts will, of course, increase from now on, but it is to be doubted whether St. Louis will receive any stupendous amount, while Chicago is sel!- ing de above this market. Most of the arrivals will be river wheat, coming in by lower river boats, but Kansas is selling her wheat to Chi- cago, and Missouri and Soutbern Illinois wheat may be diverted there aiso. So long as St. Louis shorts can get enough wheat in to fill their contracts they don’t seem to care whetber St. Louis or Chicago receives the bulk of the winter wheat. “This may not be enter- prise or working for the interest of the home market, but a good many local traders appear to be working upon the principal that their own promt, first, last and all the time is to be considered before anything else. However, that is hu- man nature, and who can blame them? The stories that have been told of the superb qual - ity of this year’s crop are borne out by the ap- pearance of the new wheat crop now arriv- ing. Where it is thoroughly dried out by far the greater proportion will grade No. 2. With this magnificent wheat to be offered the worid, both in its raw and manufactured state, St. Louis should have a trade before which pro- vious years will sink into insignificance; that is, if the wheat doesn’t goto other markets. Already there are bids here from the outside. Conspicuous among these was an offer from Minneapolis of full July prices for new fancy wheat to be shipped in twenty days. This was received by the Grier Commission Co. 80 far, though, Europe is holding aloof. Walter 8. Bartley cabled Seigomet Freves, of Bor- deaux, France, for the condition of Western Europe crops and asked for bids on new wheat. The answer, received yesterday, stated that their crops would be larger and of a better quality than last year, but in their cable wasn’t even a sign of a bid, indicating that they did not wish to purchase yet. This apathy of European purchasing points, and the continued heavy Baltic shipments seem to disprove the exaggerated statements of Rus- sian crop damage. This latter, the Hungarian complaints and the cry of drouth and hot winds in Dakota were the levers that the bulls used to work the Chicago market. 8 ** Smaller by degrees and disgustingly less is growing the stream of corn that flows into this market. Wearenow down to 211,661 du re- ceived last week, where 385,315 bu arrived the week before, though for some weeks last year only 66,306 bu ame in. St. Louis’ purchases in the country continuesmall, but as the July and August options are ciimDing somewhat nearer Chicago, it is believed the near future will see St, Louis in the field as a competitor with that market. There is still plenty of corn back in the country. Well informed parties say that Kansas and Nebraska still have on hand fully 30 per cent of last fyear’s crop. From 10 to 15 per cent of this, however, is held by rich farmers who crib and hold for such a calamity as over- took the 1887 crop, when they were enabled to dispose of two and three- rear old at handsome figures. ‘There has een a notable improvement in demand for corn locally. Over 400,000 bu. No. 2 will be the loadings into barge forexport last week, the greater part of this corn having been de- livered on July contracts. Exporters say it Is only the lack of tonnage at New Orleans tnat now limits theirshipments. New Orieans isnotan import point of any consequence and it is consequently difficult to draw vessels there. If ships could only be as sure of loads into New Orleans as they are to New York, Boston and other Atlantic ports, they would make it a port of destination, but as it is now they can’t depend on a cargo to the Gulf port and the present scarcity of tonnage is one ot the usual features of New Orleans. The corn crop that is now grow- ing appears to be in excellent shape, if all re- orts are to be believed. It is not quite so orward as atthistime last year, but the ab- sence of weeds is said to be remarkable and the late rains have benefited the crop greatly. There are, however, two months to go through with that may alter corn’s present fine condition. A hot, dry July and August would inflict considerable injury. Local mills that have been closed down are preparing to start their machinery, and those running on short time or small capacity to in- crease their output. A great deal will depend, though, upon tbe movement of new wheat. If arrivals of the new crop increase materially every mill chimney in St. Louis will be throw ing outsmoke this week; but if the present small receipts continue city millers will be in no hu to startup. Trade is dull enough, though it usually is between seasons,as every- body is waiting for low-priced new wheatflour before beginning to buy. Country milis are grinding on new wheatand are weekly offer- ing their output forsale. Round lots of new extra fancy are offered to arrive bere, this month’s delivery, at 2c cheaper than old extra fancy can be boughtat. This new flour is offered by Kunsas, but mille in this State and lilinois are asking for bids. It is about time, asthe stock of flour in this market on July 1 was only 48,520 bbis, one of the smallest stocks ever recorded here. . * +. Over his private wire, Page McPherson re- ceived the following on the cotton market from W. G. McCormick & Co., New York: ‘*‘This morning’s cable advices from Liver- pool offer conclusive evidence of the strength of the bullish influences at work there, and the skill with which they are being brought into play by the party operating for an ad- vance. Despite the decline of yes- terday here, futures in Liverpool closed firm at an advance of 1-64@1 -32 and sales on the spot were 12,000 bales, an un- usually large quantity for a Saturday. Our private cables express undiminished confi- dence in still higher prices there, and as this market is now at a dead parity, so far as con- cerns August deliveries here and September in Liverpool, we no longer feel apprehensive of any further decline bere. The weak long in terest, which has been a constant menace to any bull movement here, is largely elimin- ated, and the market is more healthy than for some time.’’ Next Wednesday the Government crop re- port will be made public. Owing to the drouth complaints from the Northwest, the flood damage reported in the East, and bugs, flies and lice’’ in the West, this report will be looked for with great interest and have a de- cided effect upon the wheat markets.

SCALPER. VICTORIA AS A FARMER. Taste She Has Inherited From ‘Farmer George. From the Pall Mall Gazette. If instincts and tastes are hereditary, as they of course are known to be, it is no matter of surprise to find the Queen a farmer. ‘‘Farmer George’’ did muchto improve the Windsor farm, and his tastes have shown themselves very strongly both in his granddaughter and great-grandson, the Queen and the Prince of Wales. But the great developments of the operations at Windsor were due to the foster- ing hand of the late Prince Consort, who gave much of both time and trouble to the work, and the improvements inthe farm itself, in its buildings, and in the quality of the stock, were made under his personal direction. Therefore, though the predecessors of her Majesty have all takeu more or less interest in farming, yetit is during the present reign that this bas been taken up with a determi- nation to make the Windsor estate what it is—a model farm, or farms, for theres are several. In this work the Prince Consort was strongly supported by the Queen, who ever took the deepest interest in his work. Since his death the improvements and developments have been continued, not merely as a sacred duty, as it would have been in any case, but with an evident pleas- ureand as an example to others who have similar opportunities. At Balmoral and 08 borne similar work was also carried on, but necessarily to a lesser extent than at Wind- sor. Toa large extent, therefore, in looking atthe Queen as a farmer, we must speak = * in conjunction with her lamented hus- and. In her farming her Majesty occupies a posi- tion which she is seldom accorded. Probably it is generally thought that the farms at Windsor are on land for which no rent is paid, and carried on regardless of whether they can be made to pay or not. This is not the case, and it may surprise many to learn that the Queen isatenant farmer, and like everv other occupant of this by no means enviable position of late years, has had her rent to pay, and possibly has known what itis to be unable to make both ends meet. Whether the Queen has sought for and obtained, ke nearly every of rent we are unable tos say. This will be a secret locked in the breasts of her landlords, the Commissioners of Woods and Forests and the beads of the Windsor farms. These are now practically two in number—the Shaw farm and the Flem- ish farm. The former will be avallaple to vis- itors at the time of the royal show, and doubt- less be visited by large numbers, who will be delighted by the splendid position, the fine houses and buildings, and the first-class man- ner in which everything is conducted. Espe- clally willthe magnificent dairy be regarded with admiration, as it is probably the finest buliding of ite kind inthe worid. At one time the Norfolk, Bagshot and Rapley farms were all held by the Queen, but they were given up afew years ago. That at Bagshot is now in the occupation of the Duke of Connaught. Soon after his marriage to Her Majesty the Prince Consort began to give his attention to the farming operations at Windsor, in reality himself becoming their tenant, and when the rangership of Windsor Park was conferred upon him he officially directed the work of improving the park, which has since been carried on to such a successful end. This po- sition enabled bim to secure the execution of extensive schemes of drainage,and he person- ally observed the work as it progressed. In 1840 Prince Albert became a member of the Smithfield Club, and this was his first official connection with agriculture. In 1843 he became an exhibitor at the show of that club, and then onward every year since that time the farms in his or the Queen’s possession have been repre- sented more or less at the leading agricul- tural and fat stock shows. It was not until two years afterthe formation of the Royal Agricultural Society tbat Prince Albert be- came a member, which he did in 1841 by tak- ing the position of Life Governor. The Shaw farm, socalled because it was at one time held, before the estate was pur- chased by the Crown, by a Frenchman, M. de Shawe, was more lately an appanage of Frog- more, and was occupied bythe Princess Au- gusta; but on her death in 1840 the Prince Consort took it in hand, continuing as the tenant till his death in 1863, since which time it has been in the occupation of Her Majesty. Here we find the splendid farm buildings which form one of its chief characteristics. The cost of the building erected by the Prince must have been enor- mous, and with those on the home farm must have absorbedavery iarge sum of money. They are adaptedfor the breeding of stock, and at the present time there are upward of two hundred head of stock on the place, be- sides a large number of sheep and pigs. The principal herds are those of Shorthorns and Jerseys, but there are also a number of Here- fords and Devons. The object is not merely ornamental, for the practical production of beef and dairy produce is ever kept in view. Considerable success has been achieved in the production of fat stock, and the rizes won at ieading Christmas shows ave roved that the system of feed- ing is thoroughly understood by those in charge of the farm. The operations are and have been closely watched by members of the royal family, and at the residence of Mr. Tait, the manager, who succeeded to this position on the death of his father in 1882, there is a suite of apartments devoted to the use of her Majesty, from which she can hate gee go through the entire range of buildings. It is the dairy farm, near which is the magnificent range of poultry nouses, where in days gone by members of the family were wont to walk in the morning, and, in in the comfortable room which forms the center of the block, partake of new-laid eggs, that will attract chiefly the attention of visitors. The magnificent dairy was built according to the directions of the Prince Consort, and it eiabod ies all that is desirable in a place where cream and butter are to be kept. Tue eow- house which supplies the milk for use in the dairv is very handsome, and the records kept of the production of each animal are most complete. In eve way this home farm de- serves the name it has so long received—that of ‘‘Model.’’ Recognizing the importance of helping the workers on the estate, among the various im- provewents effected have been the dwellings of the laborers, which are now worthy of the whole place. And in the first year of bis ten- ancy the Prince Albert established an evening schvol for his work people, which is continued stili, and has been the means of doing a large amount ot good. Both these examples have been followed by the Prince of Wales on his Sandringham estates, for the heir apparent has the same tastes as have been so strongly shown in his progenitors, immediate and re- mote. r —_ A Mammoth Water-Wheel.

SPIRITUAL WORK AMONG THE LEPERS OF THE SANDWICH ISLANDS Self-Sacrificing Heroes Who Have Given Up Their Lives That the Afflicted May Be Comforted—The Daily Life of Une of These Devoted Men. NEw ORLEANS, July 6. HE name of Father Damien has gone into every household in civ- jlization and every- where found adwiration and reverence for his exalted courage and his noble martyrdom. While all the world is repeating the story of his heroism, while me- morial hospital wards are being built and monuments erected to his memory, attention must necessarily be directed to the sublimely molded men and women who were his assist- ants and are now his survivors inthe mission among the lepers of the Sandwich Islands. When good Father Damien was incapacitat- ed by disease from further labor among the afflicted, the Catholic Church was not long in obtaining another heroic priest willing and ready to bring spiritual and temporal relief among the lepers, with the Inevitable pros- pect of contracting the disease and dying a slow, horrible death by putrifying dissolu- tion. Rev. Father Wendelin of Belgium took charge of the mission. Several devoted mem- bers of tho male secular orders are assisting him as well as a brave, self-sacrificing band of five Sisters of Mercy. Some time ago Rev. Father Callahan of Cas- tle Garden sent to the leper settlement at Molakai several cases of clothing for the vic- tims ofthe deadly scourge. By the mail of Junel7a letter reached Castle Garden ac- knowledging the receipt of the goods and thanking Father Callahan for his interest in the sufferers. Father Wendelin writes: ‘‘As yet I have experienced no indications of the dread malady. My assistant, Father Conrad, has been stricken down with what may be the first symptoms of the disease, and is confined in a hospital at Honolulu. The five Sisters of Mercy sent here from Syracuse are well and attending to their duties.’’ The reverential enthusiasm aroused by the useful life and sad end of Father Damien has developed the fact that one of his most valued assistants, and one whois nowin the dread- ful field, was for a long time a resident of New Orieans and still has many friends here. READS LIKE A ROMANCK. His story is like a romance. Born in Wis- consin 45 or 48 years ago Ira B. Dutton was reared under the best of circumstances and well educated near his birth place. The war came on. He was young, full of spirit and ambition, and the arena of arms was a fitting sphere of action. On the 9th of September, 1861, he entered the service of the United States bv enlisting at Zanesville, Wis., as a private in Company h, Thirteenth Wisconsin Infantry, Col. William P. Lyon. He was inustered in on October 17 and was ap- pointed Quartermaster Sergeant of the rogi- ment nine days later. On the l0thof Feb- ruary, 1843, he became Second Lieutenant of Companyl. Almost immediately after this he received bis commission as First Lieutenant and was made Quartermaster of the regi- ment. He served until the very last, being mustered out of service December 13, 1565. Lieut. Dutton went through several hard- contested campaigns and won for bimself an enviable reputation for coolness and bravery. When the war ended his life was varied. Along in the early 70s he was chief clerk of the Memphis transportation depart- ment ot the Louisville & Nasbville Railroad. There he became acquainted with Mr. Charies Marshall, now Superintendent of that road. Mr. Marshall describes him as looking some- thing like himself, except that he was medl- um-sized. His nair, mustache and eyebrows were dark. He had gray, twinkling eyes, full of humor, and and his face was bronzed with exposure. He was a gay, witty man of the world, asplendid athlete and a lover of row- ing, boxing and other manly physical exer- cises. He was muscular and proud of his muscle, but like all hearty, healthy men, maintained aserene temper and a character istic facility of entertaining others with his bright conversation. His friendship for Mr. Marshall was lasting,and the cordial acquaint- ance is even now maintained. BRAVING THE DREADED SCOURGE. Mr, Dutton subsequently became a member of the engineer corps of the army. There he remained for some time, but about the first art of 1878 he was converted by Rev. Father Telly, the celebrated pulpit speaker, who died of yellow fever in 1879. The conversion was real and complete. He gave up his old babits and at length decided to become a member of some holy brotherhood. After various fortune he entered the Trapist Sem- inary at Gethsemane, Ky.—that rigorous abbey where limited sleep, meager food, hard manuallabor and many religious rites are maintained with the severity of cor poreai infliction which existed among the monks of the middle ages. There he remained a year, and in the summer of 1886 came to New Orleans, a place he had previously visited, and where he was wellknown. He remained here six monthsin an unknown institution, and then left for California, whence he short- ly afterwards departed for the Sandwich Islands and Father Damien’s mission. He was cheerfuland light-hearted when he went, aud fully appreciated the consequences of his going. His friendship with Mr. Charles Marshall, as stated above, has been lasting. The latter bas received anumber of books, newspaper clippings and papers with marginal expiana- — as well as oceasionel letters. Owing to the great distance and the continuous de- mands his labors wake upon his time Brother Joseph does not write often. DAILY LIFE OF A MARRTYR.

Much has of recent years been written on the subject of the communicability of disease from the lower animals to man. Less has been said of the sufferings of animals from the same cause transmitted to them dy man. One of the most interesting cases illustrating the latter wastold by a physician not long ago. scrofula. The disease at that time bad ad- vanced tosuchan extent that exfoliation of bone from various parts of the body bed taken place, especially from uleers of the scalp, tibia, ete. The bones of the nose were coming away, accompanied by much of the nasal tissue, producing a hideous appear- ance and offensive in the extreme. patient was a married woman, no children, 50 years ofage. The pasttwo years she was absolutely unable to help herself, confined te the bed all the time, and, of course, a great / sufferer She was very fond of cate and kept one or two about her sick bed much of the time dure ing the last year of her lite. About fifteen months ago the cat, which slept most ot the time in bed with her, became sick, moped about the room with swollen eyes and puru- lent discharge from the nose, “ee and soon became a horrid spectacie, and died greatly emaciated. While this unfortu- nate feline was pining away the patient had adopted another bedfellow of the same species; in about two months this cat sick- ened and died precisely as the former, with symptoms corresponding to those Of its at- fectionate mistress and its hideous prede- cessor. Another was then taken in to be caressed aud to die in about the same length of time, and with the same symptoms. he husbaud of this poor woman saw by this time the fatal effects upon the mousers, but not wiiling that his wife snould be deprived of any comfort in hie reach, procured another lamous rat catcher’’ from a negro in the im- mediate neighborhood, and brought it to the now sinking pationt, who soon fondled it into perfect ngequlescence; and, as the shadows began to lengthen, it, too, MANIFESTED THE SAME SYMPTOMS of nasal catarrh first, then swollen head, — discharge, etc. At last the long suf- ering woman died. That night the cat lay upon the hearth in a sort of comatose state and lingered until the next day; it expired while the funeral cortege was moving off with the remains of its late bedfellow. This was the fourth victim in less than thirteen months. Almost all disease sgerms, when 80 on- fined thatthe air cannot reach them fully, retain their vitality for a long time, and kept wholly from the alte may be capable of doing their work of intection many months, and even years, after they have been so locked up. Of these germs thatof scariet fever is recognized as among the longest lived. Many instances are known where they have at- tached themselves to clothing afterward stored away, and yet two or three years later, when the same was unpacked, infected those within their influence. But we believe no case is ou record where these disease germs have retained their viability as lo as in the following, which has add interest, giving evidence as it does on the subject of infection by books, a matter which bas been and is still being ‘extensively inves- tignted in many European cities. The case in question was in the personal experience of the editor of a Norway sanitary journal, and he tells of itas follows: In 1846 an &vyear-olda brother of my wife was taken down with scoar- let fever and died. During his illness he fre- quently amused himself by looking over «a large picture-book. This, together with sev- eral others of his useful playthings, was packea away in a chest after his death. Twenty-six years afterward,in 1872, a sister- in-law of mine journeyed across the channel to England, where I was then residing, and with her came the chest and the picture-book. Un the second day the chest was opened, and the book presented to my 2-year-old son. Within the next two weeks the little fellow was taken down with scarlet fever. The doc- tors who were called in consultation won- dered how the disease was contracted, as there had been no scariet fever in the town for years. The circumstances of the book were cailed to mind, and the indications were clear that the 26-year-old book had retained the poison and communicsted it tothe ehiid, Sucha time asl have had to get it to taxe ite medicine,’’ isa wail with which mothers are constantly greeting pevetetans when their little ones are ill.

When this subject was suggested to me for discussion I do not think the propounder of it realized that it was as distinctly „American“ as the stars and stripes or the emblematic eagle. Inno other country under the sun could such a question seri- ously arise, because in no other country is the young person al- lowed such lattitude of conduct as in America. Of course, our most careful mothers in con- ventional circles are supposed to rear their daughters in a very proper manner regard - ing their association with the opposite sex. But no matter bow wisely the American girl is chaperoned in public places she is allowed and takes her small liberties of tete a tetes and promenades with gentieman friends which she could not take in any other land upon the globe. Aside from this limited circle of ultra con- ventional people which each large city con - tains we have hundreds of thousands of beau- tifal and refined girls dwelling in our lesser es and country places who comprise the est society’’ of their respective towns and who walk, drive and dance about with their aumerous admirers quite according to their own ideas of propriety and pleasure and with no interference from chaperons. r Really Believe Mamma Ie Curious.’’ There recently appeared in a French so- lety journal the statement that it was cus- mary for ENTIRE STRANGERS to call upon American young ladies whom they were desirous of meeting; that these ang ladies received them cordially, and en- ed them pleasantly by conversation until midnight, frequently, when if the other chanced to pass the door and glance the daughter would laughingly remark: ‘‘I o believe ma is getting curious. The most remarkable statement regarding our customs will be a surprise to all good American mothers, I am sure, and yet too many American mothers do not exhibit enough curios! concerning the young men who call upon their daughters. If Mollie and allie are fast friends, Molileis allowed to e her gentiemen friends to call upon Sal- ie. And if several weeks thereafter Sallie oes walking, rowing or driving with one of kuss gentlemen her mother is quite satisfled 4 — the explanation that it is one of Mollie’s ends. Mollie is a neighbor’s daughter and a very nice girl, indeed, and Saliie’s mother rests content with that knowledge, and is glad the 7 | folks are enjoying themselves. Wh le I assert 3 knowing thoroughly my premises, that Mollie’s mother may be foun by the hundreds, if not by the thousands, in all the smaller towns of the United States, yet the vigilant and watchful mother exists, too. Notlong ago I heard a gentleman, who had been remarkably suo- cessful as a ladies’ man, recount how on three separate occasions he was confronted by dig- nified mothers and asked to ‘‘state his inten- tions’’ before continuing his calls upon their daughters. As the gentleman in question DID NOT MARRY any one of the three daughters in question - this method would hardly seem a successful one for mothers to pursue. But a thoroughly dignified young lady would never have per mitted herself to be sufficiently compromised to need this question asked. However much liberty of action may begranted her there is an inborn pride in the true woman which com- pels her to defend herself from meaningless or corapromising attentions. Although the chaperoning system is rapidly — 14 with us, yet it will require another hundred years at least before the American girl is as £ GIFTS a * earefully hedged about with conventionalities 2 foreign sisters are.

I wish some statistic lover would study up this éubject and find what percentage of divorces are from the governess-guarded and rigor- ously chaperoned young women and what from the n educated class who have mixed ly with the opposite sex in school or in society. Of one thing I fee! sure, that the charming ease of manner, the grace of action and the quickness of repartee for hed yey our girls are admired the world over will decrease and disappear whenever she is as com barricaded by conventionalities as ie the English and ¥RENCH MAIDEN.

I wish — girls could know the indefina- bie but certain lessening of respect which every man feels for one who invites or gives gifts freely. Of course men will offer gifts when they dare do so. They know that with the vain and ambitious girl who lacks pride ‘ ‘gifts like these can favor bring; they argue for him and they flatter’’—but every favor a woman accepts from a man who has not asked her to be his wife places her just so much far- ther trom his honest respect. One of the happiest wives I know to-day first attracted the attention of her husband by a conspicuous absence of jeweiry in her attire. She was A SELF-SUPPORTING ORPHAN, and he was a well to do man of the world, who had come much in contact with gift-loving young women. Knowing the propensity of his sex to buy the favor of pretty and unprotected girls, he felt an unusual interest in one who had with- stood their bribes, and to-day the happy wife wears jewels consecrated by love in payment for her years of good sense. However much men may cater to and pur- sue the gift-getting girl, they distrust ber ee and the coarse minded are quick to magine her more unwomanly than she really is; for Iam not writing of the vicious adven- turess, put of a type of pleasure-loying, self- ish, but chaste American girl who guards her honor zealously, while she sells her smiles and preferences and exhibits her ‘‘presents’’ as trophies of victories.

The young giant of the West whose itching palm is reaching out towards Japan, China, Korea and the lands of South Asia, has already a strong grip on this : 2 birthplace of bie- tory and the Egypt of the past has days that are numbered. Alexandria has long since arisen from the ashes of the bombardment of seven years ago and it is now the size of Cleveland or Wash- ington. Its buildings are European rather than Arabic and its streets have French names. Cairo, the city of the Arabian nights, is fast becominga city of Parisian nights and the Mohammedan call to prayer is mingled with the bacchanalian songs of the cafe chantants. Modern science is pulling the mummies from the pyramids. A telephone line runs almost to the very ear of the Sphynx and the old lady is being pulled from the sand by modern iron cars made in Europe.

Egypt had more than two thousand American visitors this winter and the amount left here by Cook’s tourists alone is now, I am told, about two and one-half million dollars a year. Cairo is pecoming a winter residence city andit has hundreds of mansions whicb would do creditto New York or Paris. Real estate bas rapidly risen in value and the land upon which baby Moses lay in the bulirushes is now worth a big price per square foot. When I visited Cairo about eight years ago the donkey was the chief hackney cab of the foreigner, and men, women and children went sight-seeing on long-eared beasts with donkey boys in blue gowns following behind and punching up the animals by poking sharp sticks into patches of bare flesh as big as a dollar, each of which had been denuded of skin for the purpose. and gown$ and you called your boy to your room by the town, and though he wears a fez cap, his dress is European and his cheek is as hard as that of an American cabby.

But I wore a gentle smile. We rang for the steward. He could do nothing. Then he went to the ober-steward. He was extremely vexed, I judge, from a few remarks he let drop, and which fell with a hissing sound into the water. He showed metothe stateroom ofa — $ set German gentleman, who was very hostile indeed, claiming to own the whole stateroom. I apologized to him while he swore, for good breeding is a speciaity with me. I would apol- ogize to the devil if I happened to step on his tail by mistake, because a well-bred person is always thoughtful and kind. So I slept in his reom that night, 8 that I could not twine my fingers in the olus- tering hair of the ticket agent. In the morning the ober-steward had reported the trouble. Capt.

But keep good-natured, and if the others hold out violently for their rights you may safely submit. He then called up the co-respondents in the ‘case. The gentlemen in possession ali claimed their rights, and the man in whose state- room I had spent the night was especialiy obnoxious, so much so that the Captain gen- tly closed him up and told bim that be only had that stateroom upon the condition that no Claimant appeared to demand it, it having been sold and so far unclaimed, the 3 erous man having originally bought a berth in thg second cabin. So when the decision came the two gentlemen in posséssion of the stateroom where I was booked were given that room, the violent man was relegated to his original second cabin and I was placed in possession of the entire room left by him. Verily the meek shall inherit the earth. But the other man seems to be content. Knowing thatthe earth isthe Lord's and the fullness thereof, Ijudge by his appearance as I go to press that he no longer wants the earth, but is willing to take it out in the iviness thereof. © But whatshould we learn from this?

With this resolution he called at her home, which isin the-vicinity of Grand avenue and Olive street the other evening and spent the hours pleasantly until several N men who were calling there had taken their departure. Then came the ‘tug of war.“ Oace again the question was profoanded, ‘‘Will you marry me?“ and when the negative answer was again given the doctor declared he would rather die at once than live without her. He took some morphine frota his pocket and was abont to swallow it, when the young lady, seeing he Wis in deadly earnest in his design, sprang. towards him, and after a sharp ptraygie succesded in Wrestling the drug from him before he had taken sufficient to injure him.

Svecial Correspondence of SUNDAY PoOsT-DISPATCH. LAUREL CREEK, Black Mountains, W. Va., July 3.—Old John Logston, one of the old hunters, trappersand fishermen that make their headquarters in the depths of the Black Mountains, where game and fish are as plenti- ful as they were in provincial times, is one of the most successful men of his line. There’s no use for any animal, reptile or fish to try to evade old John. If he can’t overcome them in the ordi- nary way he has recourse to his remarkable powers of ingenuity, when they aré sure to allan easy prey. Gid John's lust feat in this line is one worthy of mention. Among the mountain streams of ali this wildness can be found the finestof trout and the angling at times is most exhilarating and excellent, but, as every trout fisherman knows, there are times when the spotted beauties cannot be prevailed upon by the most decevtive al- lurement to take the fly. At such times the fish seeks the deepest holes in the pools and will lle close to the bottom or wili swim about in smaller or larger schools close to the surface of tue clear water, but will disdain the most tempting of morsels. These are the times when the hungry fisherman becomes exas- perated after trying in vain, perbaps for hours, to land his prey. Old John had often spent hours in trying to get a mess of trout under these circumstatices but with no suc- cess, and a short time ago he de- termined, to get even with the fish. He bought a couple of ordinary reed poles, cut them to a length of about 6 feet and with a hot iron rod bored a hole of about one- half an inch through one of them. The hole in the other was somewhat 1 r, nearly three- fourths of an inch in lameter. In one end of the smaller cylinder he fixed a circular piece of glass, making the rod impervious to water by sealing it closely about the edges. In the larger rod he fixed along spiral wire, at the lower end of which he fastened a straight steel wire a foot in length, witha barb at its point. By means of along wire fastened to the lower end of the spiral spring he could draw the spring back in the rod about one foot. The rod which held the spring was then caught by aspring near the top of the rod. When this was done the two cylinders were fastened to- gether like tne barrels of a double shot-gun, with the exception that one was placed over the other, and not side by side. rmed with this peculiar weapon old John made an ex- perimental trip to the top of the mountain, where he struck one of the streams pro- se 0 trout, but which at this time, toa W didn’t contain a single trout. en he reached one of the small basins under a cliff of rocks, where the water inthe center was (or ö feet deep, he cut a bunch of laurel, and after creeping to the edge stuck it into the ground.

VERY palr of trou- ders has a hip pocket, so universal is the practice of carry- ing a weapon that it is known even to tallors as the pistol pocket. An Eastern man never thinks of . — =~ any other part of his attire, and usually rhe carries it with the ~ butt to the rear, so that he has to twist his shoulder and elbow into awkward and constrained positions in order to draw it. In a sudden emergency, the pistol carried inthe hip pocket, butt to the rear, is inferior, as a weapon, tothe flat ora stout stick, says the Pall Mall Budget. In 1879a drummer for an Eastern whisky house hada dispute with a saloon-keeper in Helena, Mont:, about the price and quality of a barrel of whisky. The disputé became animated, and the saloon-xeeper, in vig- orous Montana lan- guage, accused the drummer of deceiving him. The drummer was excited and warm and he reached for his handkerchief to wipe the perspiration from his brow. Un- fortunately he had the pernicious habit of carrying his cam- brio in his hip pocket. The Tenderfoot Style. The saloon-keeper grabbed a pistol from under the bar, and the drummer was gath- ered to his fathers. Although it was shown that the drummer bad no pistol, the fact that he ‘‘made a piay’’ for his hip pocket was un- disputed, andthe coroner's jury exonerated the saloon-keeper on the ground of seif- defense. Men who were likely to be called upon to use pistols soon dis- covered that while the butt to the rear madethe presence , of a pistol in the hip pocket less conspio- uous, the butt to the front enabled them to draw quick- er, Anybody can demonstrate this to his own satisfaction by simply placing his hand in that pocket. To place the palm of the hand against the hip, the shoulder must be thrown back and the elbow swung to the ao * : ; at an uncomfort- The Frontier Sheriff. able angle. WHEN THE PISTOL is drawn in this — the mozzie is pointed toward the body for an instant, and when a man is excited that is a dangerous move, partioularly with a seif-cocker. One of the firstand most important things to be learned about a pistol is that the muzzie is al- ways dangerous. After this experiment put the hand into the pocket, withthe palm out- ward and the knuckles against the body. The position of the arm is easy and natural, the elbow is opposite the side and lower down than before, and the shoulder muscles do not bind or feel constrained. When the pistol is drawn the muzzie points downward until it is past the line of the body. The first decid- ed improvement on the hip-pock- et sehbeme was made by the ao- complished gun- fighters of Yir- ginia City, Nev.

The farmer was very quick on the draw, could shoot as well drunk as he could sober, and altogether was a man against whom it was well to take every pre- caution. One evening Dick sat behind the stove in a saloon, quietly smoking and mind- ing his own business, when a drunken ruffian who had made a big winning at faro, entered and began making things hum. The rouffian flourished a big pistol and ordered everybody up to take a drink, threatening to kill all who should refuse. He wantonly knocked one man down withthe weapon, and it was evi- dent that he was becoming DEADLY DANGEROUS. Paddock sat tilted back in his chair with dis hat pulled over his brows and his hands care- lessiy thrust in the side pockets of bis sack coat, apparently paying no attention to the ruffian. The latter saw him and ordered him up to the bar. Paddock did not move. The bully swaggered up in front of him and said: “Will you drink with me, — — your —— soul—-, ou — ——?’’ „No, I won't, replied Paddock, without moving or raising his head. **Then I’ll blow your —— There was a mufiled report, and the bully doubled up onthe floor witha bullet through his abdomen.

In the evolution of the pistol pocket the ten- con dency has been to get the weapon near the customary position of FAY the right hand. 4 W stop ln the right di- rection was made by the late lamented Mr. Hoodoo Brown, when he winged Durango Jack with aderringer, which he packed in his right hand trous- ers pocket.

If he is obliged to wear a dress suit very often and go much into polite society, where the bulge of a navy butt would excite remark, the derringers are distinctly superior guns for him to back. When a man pins his faith to one or two shots, he should use pistols of large cali- ber. No derringer should be smaller than 40-caliber, and 45 is better. A half-iueh round ball, equlvalent to 60-caliber, is none too small for a single sho tgun. The smail-bore pistols may inflict fatal wounds, but their bul- lets do not give the paralyzing shock that puts a sudden end to the argument. A COMPOSER’S CLAIMS Established by fceizing the Libretto and Scores of ah Opera. AID PASHA was given Friday night at Schnaider’s Gar- den without books, scores, music, I bretto, ete., and Richard Stahl, one of its joint com- posers and its di- rector. Since open- ing at Schnaider’s business disputes have arisen between the owners of the show and the diréctor, who claims that he owns the opera. On Friday the Kreling Brothers filed a replevin suit for the above named property, but they have not succeéded in recovering it yet. The result was that Friday night the opera was given with four plano scores and twelve violinists, who feltthat they were on thin ice. Occasionally when some well-remembered part of the score was reached they bowed with confl- dence, but at the more difficult parts of the com position they played mute. Mr. Ben Tuthill, who represents the Kreling Brothers, yesterday gave the following HISTORY OF THE COMPLICATIONS which resulted in this candition of affairs: ‘*The opera of ‘Said Pasha’ was written by Scott Marble, Stahl and one or two others and was controlled by Marble and Stahl. It was put on at the Tivoli Theater in San Francisco about a year ago by the Kreling Brothers, proprietors of the Tivoli, and had a run of about seven weeks, proving a great success. Stahl then took the opera away and sold it to Denman Thompson and Frank McKee, the con- sideration being a percentage of protits and that he, Stahl, vo employed as musical director at a salary. Stahl also contracted to give them forthe same consid- eration all the compositions that he might write for the next five years. They hada clause in the contract allowing them a year’s time before producing ‘‘Said Pasha. In the meantime Stahl got broke and they advanced hima little money. Kreling Bros. would not have him, of course, after disposing of the opera. Hespent his money and found im- self in debt with a big hotel bill againse bim. He@went to the Kreling Brothers and begged them to help him out of his trouble. They paid his board bill, and he went to Thompson and McKee, and they agreed to give the opera up tor the bonus which the Krelings paid. The contract was turned over to the Kreling Brothers, Tnis was so revorded. All the records relat- ing to this are attached to the original papers nowin possession of Mr. Nathan Frank of this city. Kreling Bros. brought the opera East and produced it in Philadel- phia last January in magnificent style, at a cost of about $10,000, with ballet, ete. It was a huge success. While in Philadelphia he represented thathe owned this opera andthere marrieda girl. Since his marriage he has been making trouble inthe company. Whenthe company got to Omaha he tried to get John Kreling tosign papers showing that he, Stahi, owned the opera. Mr. John Kreling to ain time ac- cepted a proposition for the purchase of the opera and sent it to his brother, who sent on the papers showing that Stahl had no right to the operaatal!. In the mean time Stahl has a transfer of the opera recorded from Stahl to Mrs. Stahl. She goes to Kreling and says she will give one week's time to buy the opera or close up the performance. Trelin would not buy, of course, and Stahl takes away the orchestration. Kreling got out a replevin, but the orchestration cannot be found. Stahl wont direct andthere weare. In the mean- time Kreling, who has lutended to get rid of Stahl, sent East to Bangor, Me., toget Geo. Towle and Friday night in conjunction with Mr. Knable, the director of the orchestra, they got through the performance with four piano scores. There will be nointerference with the performance, Stahl threatens an injunc- tion that we are assured that he hasn't a leg to stand on. we — TROUT AT THE MERCY OF BASS, The Two Fish Will Not Live Happily Te- gether. From the New York Herald. The old-time anglers who haunt the shores of ck River, New York, along the upper of its course have occasion to note the peculiar actions of the fish that inhabit the stream, and they have it pretty well settled in their own minds that trout and black bass were not made to live peaceably and bar- moniously inthesame waters. A few years ago there was nothing to excite discussion among the fishermen. They could start out for an early morning stroll and come back be- fore dinner with a handsome string of trout. There were no other fish to take the nook and every foot of the stream afforded good sport. About fifteen years ago the Graves brothers of this village secured a number of bass from the St. Lawrence and transferred them alive to Black River. The stream seems to have been in every way satisfactory to they have multiplied at a at ra now exceedingly plentiful. anted fifteen has n 80 big that it now — along ths whole length of the m.

Clothfng Purchasers Take Advamge of an Immense Clenring Saie—Scenes Last Night in One of the Largest Establiah- ments in the Country—The Delivery Service Overtaxed—A Great Sacrifice. „% Famous in fact, as well as in name, is the great clothing establishment at Breadway and Morgan streets: It has gained its fame from the long series of big sales of clothing it has inaugurated and carried to successful conclusions. No other house in America handles clothing with equal rapidity ot succeeds more thoroughly in satisfying its customers. The secret of this lies in the method of Famous’ business. Its buyers are the most experienced in their line in the coun- try; it owns and controls the largest clothing plant in the country; its management is original, far-seeing, enterprising and shrewd. The Famous does more business thin any three clothing houses in the city. Knowing all these facts the close buyers of the city patronize the house. They are sure of getting there the best goods and the most fashionable goods at the lowest prices. Sach persons are always on the watch, too, for the GREAT CLEARING SALES ofthe Famous. Those sales are the events of the year, for durin bargains to be found in the mammota lishinent are simply startling. Persons W for . have bought their 8 south o Washington avenue are fairly astounded at Famous’ prices when curiosity tempts them north of that line, and they are ever ard tobe Counted as Famous’ inalienable custom- ers. Nowhere else has a dollar such ener- mous purchasing power. One dollar expended at Famous will pe | more than 82 in any other establishment, ag lines it Is dual to §3 expended else- where. Tuat is a fact which the people of St. Louis have comé to know Well and thoroughly ap- preciate. One of these clearing sales was inaugurated ha ar morning. From 7:30 0’clock A. m. ll o’clock p. m. the enormous force of clerks—the largest force employed in any store in the elty—suppie- mented by fifty additional salesmen worked like beavers to supply the wants of the thou- sands of persons attracted by the advertise- ments of this sale which were published in Friday’s papers. Such crowds have seldom been seen even in this always crowded store. The delivery wagons were overflowing with bundles and extra wagons and messenger had to be pressed ih- service, It would have been fatal to allow the bundles to accumulate for it will not be possible for the regular wagons to geteven with the business for sevoral weeks, notwithstanding the large number in constant service. And then so many customers were counting on getting their goods for Sunday wear. FAMOUS NEVER DISAPPOINTS its customers, and when there were indica- tions of a blockade the extra wagons and messengers Were at once secured. ö Famous is making a great sacrifice at this sale. It is the policy ot this great house never to carry gvods over from one season to an- other. ta stock is always good, fresh, new and fashionable. That is its reputa- tion and no business concern can afford to do anything that will injure its ye tation with its customers. Now that height of the summer has come and Famous finds itself with u great stock on hand it is compelled to clear it out orthere will be no room in even its tremendous building for the fall clothing that must be placed shortly. Fa- mous never does things by halves aud so the earnivalfor close buyers and bargain hunters has been opened. The sale will end when the goods are all sold. That day is not tar off for the crowds of yesterday will be duplicated to-morrow. The prices are phenomenally low and are bound to effect the speedy reduction of the plies now on the tables.

In spite of the great rush of this sale, the management of Famous is determined that each individual customer shall have prompt attention, and no one need stay aw on account of the rush. The faciliti of the establishment are great and crowds thas would swamp other concerns are handied as the Famous without the slightest dificulty and witbeut delay in the service of every ots- tomer. even at the neight of the crowding tne of customers was 80 rapid and efficient that such a thing as a jam was of ve rare occurrence.

If'still iving, which Ido not know, I am sure he would vouch for the substantial accuracy of the portrait if submitted to nim. The last day of my stay in the city we dined together at the good oid Astor House, and then proceeded to supplement the generous repast with a conversatiunal cigar. I should have mentioned that Stuart had been for sev- eral years the Private Secretary of Capt. E. K Collins, the principal owner and general manager of the once-famous Collins Line“ of transatiantic steamers. So it was natural enough tbat after exhausting personal topics I should allude to the loss of the Arctic, which occurred in September of the previous year, expecting, however, nothing more from my friend than a few unimportant facts which had escaped capture and publication by the news- — ers. These he gave; then, to my surprise, eGame silent and apparently buried in deep thought. I waited a moment or two and then looked at him inguiringly. He took the cigar from his mouth, watched the fragrant blue smoke drift outand away through the open window, and turning to me said what I shall now try torepeatas nearly as possible, and what may well be called A STRANGE STORY: There were certain circumstances in con- nection with the loss of the Arctic which, so far as lam aware, have never been mentioned outside of the office, and I should hardly feel at g of them now if you were a resident of New York or liable to re- peat what [I have to gay where it would reachthe ears of the family.

Collins. as you may have heard, went abroad in the spring of 1854, foran European tour, intend- ing to return on the September trip ofthe Arctio—the favorite steamer ofthe line. Soon after their departure Capt. Collins (with whom I was someting ofa pet) told me that at his request his wifehad promised to keepa brief daily journal of the movements of the family, which would be transmitted to him by mail in weekly communications. This promise was faithfully kept, and very often vor- tions of the weekly letters were read to me. About this time the alleged wonders of clair- vyoyance were attracting the attention of the scientific and non-scientific public of New York. Capt. Collins, like all the rest of us, had heard a good deal about it, but gave the subject no serious consideration. One even- ing during midsummer, so he told me, hav- ing nothing to do in the way of business or amusement, it occurred to him that he had the material for giving clairvoyance a fair and decisive trial. Accordingly he went un- accompanied to the residence of A LADY MEDIUM whom he had never before metand to whom, as he had every reason to believe, he was an utter stranger. Hetold her that his family was absent from the city, but did not say where or give any description of them. He would like to know where they were at that time and what doing. The medium went into what is called the trance state, described with recognizable accuracy the mother, daughter and son and then added a descrip- tion of the place where she saw them—in what appeared to be an old church. Capt. Collins made a memorandum of the date, etc., paid his fee and departed. When the letter arrived, covering that part of tue journey, the cliair- voyant message was found to be quite correct. The famil on that da and at the corresponding hour were inspecting the interior of a certain church, and the descri tion given by the journalist harmonized suff - ciently with that gives by the medium. He repeated the experiment onee or twice during the summer, and with not iess satisfactory re- sults, and then more pressing affairs drove the matter quite out of big mind. He had seen enough, he said, to convince him that clair- voyance was no humbug whatever else it — be, but he had neither leisure nor inclination for further investigation. September came and Capt. Collins eagerly anticipated the arrivalof the wife and chil- dren to whom he was devotedly attached. The Arctic, a fast and reliaple steamer, usually reached New York late Saturday night or early Sunday morning, and instead of going to his country residence, ag was Customary with bim, he remained over night at his brother’s house in the city. Atthe breakfast table next morning his face had a w and he was asked if he had slept well. He said ‘no,’ and after some hesitation added: ‘I have had RE ane AM and fear the Arcticisin trouble.’ Of course he was laughed at, but could not rid himseif of the impression produced by the m, and spoke of it to me when he came tothe office Monday mo „ tho be did not then or afterwards tell me what the dream was, of the where- persons she had seen in the summer.

Only about forty, I think, of all those on board were saved inthe boats. The Oollins family were among the lost.) Ot course.’’ continued Stuart, the clair- voyant experience increased and aggravated Capt. Coliins’ anxiety, which he did not try to conceal when he returned to the office towards evening, and told me where he had been. There was nothing to be done but wait and hope. All I have told vou up to this Fos is second-hand, coming to me from ollins, but, in my opinion, none the less trustworthy on that account. What I have to tell you now, incredible as it may seem, I SAW AND HEARD MYSELF. It was Wednesday, as nearly as I can recol- lect, about 12 o’clock. Wewere busy at our desks, some twelve or fifteen of us, when a well-dressed stranger, without a hat and evi- dentiy laboring under terrible excitement, rushed into the office from Broadway. Throw- ing his hands frantically above his head he shouted: Tue Arctic is lost off Cape Race! Only forty are saved, and my brother is among the lost!’’ He was immediately sur- rounded by the inmates of the office, myseif among them, and sharply questioned as to where he obtained this startling news. Paying not the slightest attention to our demands, he repeated his gestures and his words twice more, and then, breaking away from those who sought to detain him, rushed out as he had rushed in and disappeared in the crowd of Broadway. This occurred Wednesday noon. Not until Thursday about the same hour was the first telegram received from St. John’s, announcing the loss of the steamer and the landing of a boat- load of the survivors upon Canadian stranger’s information was 5 u how, in the name of heaven, or of the other place, did he get it?

The skirt is of the pal- est gray-green wash silk, with a flounce of dark green and white embroidery reach- ing almost to the knees; the skirt itself is gathered full and hangs gtraight all around without a hint of tournure or reed, being absolutely flat in the back without so much asa sash to simulate drapery. The round waist joins the skirt just under the arms by means of a wide shirred belt of the material. Old-fashioned white silk knitted mitts are the only excuse for gloves worn. On her smoothly dressed blonde hair coiled jow on the back of her small head she wears g littie turban of gray-green rough straw trimmed in tne back with upright loops of ‘ntermingled dark green and white ribbons. ther waist is fastened bya silver bucklea loose cluster of golden-hearted daisies.

This pautical young person leaned over the rail, glasses in hand, in a natty little yachting frock that was both odd -and effective. ‘Navy blue Isle of Wight serge composed the plaited underskirt and the loose blouse waist which turned back from the neck in broad revers faced with baby blue. The inside shirt of pale blue washing silk was laced ciose across the throet and embroidered with an anchor in dark blue floss. A dark blue fou- lard searf dotted with baby blue spots was knotted under the blouse revers and the waist was Clasped by A BELT WITH SILVER BUCKLE. Over the short chestnut curis was tied a flat durk blue serge hat laid in narrow plaits ra- diating outward from the crown and trimmed with a bunch of baby blue ribbons. In her hands, prettily gloved with dark blue silk, she held her fleld glasses. * * + 1 * 7 Among the throngs of gaily dressed men and Women who frequent the Sheepshead Bay faces one may see many of the most charming bats ofthe seasop.

PERSONAL PECULIARITIES OF SOME NOTED GOTHAMITES, Oddities of an Engraver—French Petulance ~An American Who Molds London's Fi- nancial Opinions—The Ambition of an English Tory Friend of Lord Salisbury— New York Notes, i By Telegraph to the Post-Disrateon. EW YORE, July 6,— A street fakir, who stande near the Astor House week in and week out, was ap- proached yester- day by a tall, stout young man, witha handsome little black mus „ tache and the look of an ascet- ic. The tall young man’s features relaxed as he asked: Have you anything new to-day?’’ He had, and the young man with the ascetic look bought it. He was Frederick Smiley of the Reform Club, the best artist in the coun- try, itis said, at engraving bank notes and portraitures. He doesn’t draw for news- pavers or magazines, but devotes himself to the mechanical perfection of his work. Smi- ley can engrave a bank note in the very high- eat style of the engraver’s art, and furnish for it a design of power and breadth and appropriatencss. But he can’t make a piate, no matter how delicately he engraves it, that some other mechanical artist who happens to beaforger can’t duplicate. As the safe breakers keep up in sxill with the safe-makers, so do the forgers, by photog- raphy, with the engravers. well-known writer and authority on econom- ics. He is asavant at 85, and as an explana- tion of his own juvenile mustache advances with much ingenuity the theory that intel- lectuality is incompatible with hirsute devel- opment. He is some 5 feet 11 inches high, and weighs probably 190 pounds. musician offine taste. He has one weakness, a bankering after street fakirs, and rarely re- fuses to buy anything new they offer him. In this respect, as perhaps in others, he is one of the most remarkable men in New York. 2 * Astout, dark young man of great physical strength, apparently penetrating of eye and firm in the lines about the mouth, sat in front of the Hotel Dam yesterday—some people, on oppressive duys, like the suggestiveness of the locality—and talked in an earnest way about the injustice which so many Amer- | 4 ö . — icans seem inclined to do the French, that nation so friendly always to America, by the point of view from which they regard the Panama Canal fiasco. Why Americans should in any way rejoice over the failure of the French. up to this time, to complete the most gigantic enter- prise, barring none of ancient or modern times, ever undertaken by man, I fail,’’ said he, ‘‘to see. Yet there does seem to be, in some quarters, a disposition to blame French management or even French nationality for the fiasco, whereas notbing but the tmimen- sity of the proposed work and the limitations of human endeavor have been so far respon- sible tor it.“ The speaker was Mr. Crawford Douglass, one of the best known and most skilful engineers who ever worked on the Isthmus, and familiar with every division of the ship canal. Mr. Douglass expects to see it completed. He returned from Colon some weeks ago. 2 Mr. D. G. MacRae, who wrote a card for the WORLD a day or two ago, and who came over from Liverpool with some of Col. North’s friends, ‘‘inthe city’’ where he is said to be recognized as London's foremost financier, is quite a remarkable young man bimself by re- pute among Americans returned from the world’s greatest city. Mr. MacRae, besides being theeditor of a financial paper, is recog- nized among the London promoters as a shrewd judge of the methods by which stock companies are put before the public ina way most likely to attract share subscriptions. By what be was enabled, from his experience, to suggest and to bring about not long ago, in the floating of a certain stock company, Mr. MacRae is sald to have realized the sum of £60,000. He is a bovish- looking oung man at first glance, smooth-faced, — an d 1 as to the brow and mouth. He talke well and je evidently at home in matters concerning his business. It is not believed he is trying to buy up for an English syndicate either more American breweries or American dry goods stores. 93 „There goes a coming leader in the Tory arty, a man whom Lord Salisbury looks to or assistance, and a fellow Conservative in whose judgment Lord ‘Randy’ Churchill puts the greatest trust. The speaker was stand- ing in front of a photographer’s, from whose shop Col. J. T. North, the nitrate king, was ustemerging. The ruddy cheeked and abie- odied millionaire looked pieased with the hotographs he had just been having taken or his friends in New York. He certaijaly does not look like a great political leader. „Col. North, the friend went on, is nota member of the Carlton Club, but he Is likely to be soon, and to stand as well for a seat in Parliament, towhich he would as- suredly be elected. A firm believer in Tory principles, he would put up $100,000 for elec- tion expenses without a murmur, and would at once take rank in Parliament as one of the most enormously wealthy of Tory piutocrats who are now governing England pretty much as they please. In spite of bis other gigantic and numerous occupations, Col. North would not be a mere figurehead in Parliament. He is too conscientious not to sit in his seat, dis- charge its duties and bear his share of every parliamentary burden.“ Mrs. Haycs and the Wine Question. From the Washington Star, It was well known to Mrs. Hayes that she must in some way make up for the absence of wine at diplomatic dinners,or must so arrange these oceasions as not to make its absence in- appropriate. In her efforts to dispense with the use of wine she had the support of her husband, but the very active opposition of the Secretary of State, Mr. Evarts held that it was improper to require members of the diplomatic corps at a State dinner to conform to the prejudices of the President’s wife in the matter of what they should drink, and he made an earnest fight for oid customs—and old wine. It wasa struggle be- tween the Premier and the President's wife, and the latter of course won. But the scheme Mrs. Hayes devised to mect the difficulty was at once original and very clever. When the time arrived for the diplo- mat io dinner, instead of the small assem biage of decorated diplomats in the State dining- room, she struck upon the idea of a large re- She knew that it would be very dif- to conduct the usual successfally without the diplomate would expect it.

The nine papers wich make up the July number of the Forum will interest many class- es of readers. Bishop Potter’s opening paper on The Scholar in American Life is is in part a paper that has already been read by him before an audience in New York and one in Michigan, a circumstance which perhaps will increase the interest taken init. Honore Beaugrand, writing of the atti- tude of French Canadians in the commercial union discussion, says that, like most Cana- dians, he is in favor of the closest possible relations between the two countries, ‘‘and he is not at all averse to looking annexation in the face.’’ Mrs. Croly takes a new and humane view ofthe domestic service question. Too much is expected of servants. ‘‘Let us, as mis tresses, says she, with a touch of the heroic, case complaining and goto work, do our finer share of the labor of our housebolds,and accept the human trust imposed upon us cheerfully, astrue missionary effort.’’ The paper on The Better Side of Anglomania’’ pleads tor the adopting of better things than awkwardness of gait and speech—for truth- fulness, self-restraint, health, loyalty. Sena- tor Morrill writes on the party prospects of the Kepublicans with an interesting serenity, and George J. Romanes replies on behalf of the Darwinians to Mr. Mivart’s recent paper on ‘‘Darwin’s Brilliant Fallacy.’’ W. S. Lilly’s paper on »The Ethics of Journalism.“ The July Scribner’s, which begins a new vol- ume, isa most entertaining number of the many good issues of that magazine, for it is devoted almost entirely to fiction—six stories and acomedietta. The opening article, how- ever, is on The Telegraph of To- Day. It is quite thorough, being brought down so closely to date as to include descriptions and illus- trations of the special appliances which the Commercial able Co. are using in submarine telegraphy. Of the short stories the first, ‘‘How the Derby Was Won. intro- duces a typical Kentucky giri in a daring ad- venture, and gives a splendid ana accurate description of a horse race in the Blue Grass region. ‘‘The Rock of Beranger’’ tells ofa clever trick by which a long estranged couple of lovers were reunited. A long touching story ofarich man’s revenge turning to pun ishment and then to reformation is entitied „Phe Governor.“ The Copeland Collec- tion“ has an old-time flavor and a ghost. The Story of a Lost Car’’ is as realistic in manner as a good news- oe article, but the incident upon which it 8s founded—the disappearance of a car load of silver, bars in a storm—double discounts the most imaginative cycione yarn that ever was elborated in the breezy West. The Two Mollies; a City Sketch, is lifelike and pa- thetic. The comedietta From Four to Six’’ is somewhat in the line of Bronson Howard’s charming Old Love Letters. The leading artiele in the July Homiletic Re- view is by Prof. R. B. Welch ot Auburn Semi- nary, entitled Training for the Work and in the Work. It is the third in the ‘‘Symposi- um on Preaching Adapted to the Times, and deserves a careful reading by every preacher. Prof. Schodde has a careful and timely paper on ‘*Modern Biblical Criticism.’’ Prof. Paint- er of Roanoke College discusses ‘‘The Papacy and Popular Educatiou.’’ Dr. A. T. Pierson has an article on ‘‘ Effective Church Organiza- tion,’’ and the sermons include one by Bishop Potter. Sun and Shade for June contains eight photo- gravures, the first one being taken from the —— by P. Grolleron, The Skirmishers.’’ esides other reproductions of recent paint- ings, it also contains a fine portrait of Carl Schurtz and a view of Johnstown, Pa., on June 1, 1889. The Century for July offers a varied list to choose from. An interesting contribution, — ad illustrated, is that by Mr. Charles arnard on Inlaud Navigation of the United States,’’ with a brief accompanying paper by Mrs. Van Rensselaer on the Ad- vance in Steamboat Decoration.’’ Mr. Bar- nard surveys the whole subject, West and East. Mrs. Van Rensselaer contributes an- other one of her interesting papers on English Cathedrals, taking Winchester this time. Woman in Early Irelana’’ is the il- lustrated paperin Mr. de Kay’s Irish series. Bishop John F. Hurst in his article, ‘‘The Temperance Question in India,“ gives results of a recent visit to that country and discusses a subject recently brought tothe attention of the ritish Parliament, Rev. Dr. J. M. Buckley gives many curious instances and much good advice in his article on ‘‘ Presenti- ments, Visions and Apparitions. „ The ‘Old Master“ this month ts Gentile da Fabriano, and the ‘‘Lineoln Life’’ has some important chap- ters. Thecircumstapces attending Lincoin’s renomination are here set forth in the most autboritative manner, and other chapters deal with the Wade-Davis Manifesto and Horace Greeley’s Peace Mission. The depart- ments and many other good things round out the number. The North American Review opens with a symposium on Discipline in American Col- leges. It contains answers tothe question, „How Far Should a University Control Its Students?“ by President Bartlett of Dart- mouth College, President Angell of the University of Michigan, Prof. N. 8. Shaler of Harvard, President Adams of Cornell Uni- versity, President Hyde of Bowdoin College, Sir J. „ Dawson, Principal and Vice- Chancellor of McGill University, Montreal and President Davis of the University of California. While the most of them agree thatthe faculty should exercise wise control over the students, the Harvard system finds a stout advocate in Prof. Shaler, who admits that his prejudices against it have been over- come. Adjutant-General Wolseley furnishes the second tmatallmentof An English View of the Olvil War, wherein he indulges in severe criticism of Secretary Stanton and his attempts to direct the movements of the gen- erals in the field, especially in connection with McClellan’s command of the Army of the Potomac. Prof. Richard T. Ely of Johns Hopkins University pleads in favor of Government control of the telegraph system, contending that it would be cheaper and more satisfactory than the present method. The future of the navy is discussed by Rear Admiral 8. B. Luce, Justin MeCarthy writes in an entertaining and instructive way about Tue Throne in 12 land,“ and many other writers lend a hand to make an excellent number. Asad but inter- esting feature is the tributes paid to the late editor of the magazine by W. W. Astor, Gen. Sherman and others. The July issue of the Missionary Review of the World is fully x hgh high standard which itmaintains. The contents is a marvel of fullness and variety.

William Cockran Sanford was the speaker, would be in a —or most p il thereabouts, very carefully dressed and 2 * ss passe evidently at home and deeply interested in the topic on which he and some friends were talking. Mr. Sanford is a brilliant exception, or so rated at least by folks who know him, to the rule that rich men’s sons are ne’er-do-wells. His father and grandfather before him were in Congress and in other ways more notable showed them- selves possessed of energy, brain and the ca- pacity to succeed. The elder Sanford is a well- known figure ontheturf. He is a graduate of West Point anda millionaire, the proprietor of a great carpet mill at Amsterdam, N. I., and a man of ideas as well as a man of affairs. John Sanford, his elder son, is now in Con- gress. William C. Sanford is a familiar figure in New York and bas been called a ‘‘dude’’ by persons who generalize from superficiali- ties. That he is a man and has taken a man’s part in the world of business any one who ever saw him pull off his coat and go to work in the carpet factory up at Amsterdam needs no further assurance. No small mechanical ingenuity besides is credited by experts toa patent shuffle in use in carpet-weaving which is Mr. William ©. Sanford's own invention and from which his royalties are estimated at $25,000 a year. William and John Sanford rode the famous moonlight steeplechase at Saratoga some years ago and were photo- graphed afterwards standing by their steeds. The initial letter of this column illustrates rather grotesquely the venerable superstition that the front view of the average horse’s head averse to seeing it the, general outline of a cot-© fin. The idea is, off course, purely fanciful. Much, according to Mr. Sanford’s theory, how- ever, may be learned from the studv of the equine features as shown in the accompanying cut .

Whether 383 so formed are safe to tie to, especially to tie money to, is anew and an interesting question. Should the racing season see it develop as it prom- ises, it is not improbable that amateur equine readers will be found as thick as flies along Broadway, stopping drayn.en to inquire if their animals are wide across the face, exam- ining the brain bumps of beer horses and the eyes of carriage teams. Capt. William M. Conner, one of the pest authorities in New York on the horse and his kind, says Foxhall has the finest head to his taste that he ever saw on a horse. There is mo doubt about it,’’ said Capt. Conner, Horses are a good deal like men, and their chatacters may be read from their features in avery similar way.

A lady could drive him, Mr. Huggins says. Butina race he swerves and does very much as hechooses. It runs in the breed sometimes for a horse to act that way on the track. FEurus runs best on a muddy track,“ it is oftensaid. Butnone ofthe 3 mind - road - ers profess to be able to tell that from looking at him. It is experience only that proves a horse to be goodon the mud. That doesn’t show in his features, but, as Mr. Huggins says —and he is an able and an enthusiastic student of equine nature—it shows in his action and in the actual record of what he has done. Proctor Knott. Looking at Proctor Knott’s picture many of the circle of horse-experts in the St. James agreed that they could seein Proctor’s feat- ures no indication of the lack of ‘‘heart’’ or courage, or perseverance, which some pro- fessed to find in him after after Spokane had beaten him twice. Now Procktor Knott, as anexpert wight infer even from the portrait of his head, ts a coarse, ragged-looking ple- belan of a horse. In his head Mr. Huggins, Mr. Kelly, the bookmaker, and some others declare, however, they doseea trace of that lack of courage which was charged to him. His head is unquestionably ugly when com- pared with even that of Eurus, whose expres- sion Is ecarcely compatible with beauty. Compared with the Bard or Hanover, Proctor Knott’s ‘‘plainnessa’’ becomes absolutely —— His color is a mealy chestnut. The road blaze widening out over his nose does not enhance his looks. He is not wide across the eyes on the line E...F(see cut B) nor is his brain pan shown C...D to be capacious. Proctor Knott, the new theorists say, hasn’t a resolute look.

There's Hindoo, an ugly beast if there ever was one, with a long, ungainly coupling. Hindoo, itis true, has a good head and a fine temper. His action on the track was fine.’’ ‘*Yes,’’ chimed in another, look at Tenny, too, that some people expect to win the Reali- zation Stakes; he’s an ugly beast, but he goes well.

GOSSIP ABOUT WHAT 1s GOING ON AT THE GARDENS. The Popularity of the Kensington Minstrels — ‘Chimes of Normandy’’ to Be Sang at the Cave With Some New Sougs—‘‘Said Pasha’’ Continuing Its Successful Run at Schnaider .. j QOTHING shows more plainly how quick the people are totake advan- tage ofa good en- tertainment at a suburban resort than the past week at Kensington Gar- den. The weather has been pleasant and every night the garden has been thronged by people who went to hear the Ken- sington Minstrels and laugh at their funny sayings. The week has been a pronounced suc- cess and the popu- larity of the com- pany is surely oa the Increase. The audiences. are enthusiasticand one’s sides ache with laughing by the time the funny men finish. The soloists are doing excellent work, and Curran has grown 80 popular that he is greeted with applause whenever he appears and encored when- ever he sings. The performance for the coming Jweek is exceptionally good. It in- cludes in the first part a comic song, ‘‘Buffalo Bill,“ by J. Melntyre; the Maid of the Min,“ by W. H. Maxwell, and a comic skit by Chas. Seamon. After the change of end men the ballads will be ‘‘Sleep Baby, Sleep,’’ by J. P. Curran; some selections composed by F. T. Woods, and ‘‘The Song That Reached My Heart, by J. M. Woods. The first part will end with a sketch, ‘‘My First Failure.“ In the second part McIntyre and Heath will introduce their sketeh, ‘‘Let Her Go at That. The Manhattan Quartette will give some musical selections, Ben Collins will get off his funny monologue, Chas. Seamon and J. C. Harrington will give ‘‘Ordinary Conversa- tion.’’ The Clipper Quartette will gwe a new comedy and the entertainment will wind up by the ‘‘Walk Around’’ by the entire com- pany. * * * It is now certain that Said Pasha’’ is down foralongrun. To-morrow evening it begins its third week,and during the entire time that it has been given here the handsome theater at Schnaider’s has been filled every night with enthusiastic audiences. The opera is new and bright, full of ginger and life. It is entirely out of the run of light operas and brings with it an air of freshness that is invigorating. It is presented in a manner that is charming and entirely pleasing. The company is strong and capable. All of the parts are well taken and aresung with spirit and interest. Ida Muelle has grown very popular. She is a bright little woman with a sweet, strong voice, and she does her part well. Stanley Felch and Fred Lennox, who do the low comedy business, are very good indeed, and Felch’s ‘‘Why?’’ has become a familiar expression on the South Side. Francis Gaillard has an ex- quisite voice, splen- didly cultivated, and he sings admirably. John McWade issing- ing better than ever, and his rich baritone is very pleasing. Alice Gaillard does her work well. The chorus is very attractive. The voices are good and the costumes gorge- ous. The girls are well selected, and with an audience that has much weight. There is nothing in tne whole performance that ig not worthy of praise, U 0 and the entertainment is entirely satisfactory. Handsome Fred Urban, the new tenor of the company, is nota stranger in St. Louis, he came here originally with Chas. Ford in the latter gentleman’s palmy days, as an operatic manager and played a summer at Uhrig's Cave, and he was seen here in the first production of Strauss’ Gypsy Baron given at Popes by the Conried Opera Co. when he appeared as the Austrian Count Hominay. Mr. Urban is the stage manager of the California Opera Co., and is playing the part of Terano, the Mexican, in Said Pasha,“ with great success. He will also play the title role in Coquelicot, the next opera to be produced. „ Ohimes of Normandy’’ is to be presented atthe Cave during the coming week witha strong Cast and new costumes. The ‘‘Chimes’’ is one of the oldest of all the popular light operas of to-day, and t is one that - remains popular though others may for a time run away with the popular fancy. It is a grandparent compared with ‘*Pinafore,’’ but ‘*Pinafore’’ has been buried long ago and the ‘‘Chimes’’ still ring out the tuneful melodies. There are several songs in it that are as familliar as the family lullabies. Look at this and look at that, is as new and bright now, when everyone knows it, as ever it was, and it is always 1 The waltz song is the most popular of all the waltzes and Mr. John Bell Bee an entirely new topical song. The part of the miser is very dramatic in its construction and probably there is no part in light opera that affordsa better oppor- tunity for acting. The cast of this company will be as follows: Serpolette, a village foundling.

Hennessey, the gentle ‘‘chief burgiar’’ of the Stowaway company, has been occupied forthe past three months in completing The Memoirs of a Safe Blower. The advance sheets of this unique and un- doubtedly interesting work were received by Manager Thomas H. Davis yesterday. The latter states that its publication will create consternation among the crooked class. The Russian Committee, formed with the sanction of His Imperial Majesty, to organize the celebration in honor of the ‘‘fifty years’ artistic jubilee’’ of Anton Rubinstein, has an- nounced that the event will take place on No- vember 30, and that a subscription has been opened for a testimonial fund to be offered on that occasion to the maestro. The commit- tee’s president is His Highness, Duke George of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. A mistaken impression has ne forth that the company now playing at Schnaider’s Gar- den isa stock opera company organized by Joseph Schnaider for tbe summer. This com- pany is the California Opera Co., and is owned by Mr. John Kreling, who employs Ben Tuthill as General Business Manager, George Towle as Musical Director and Fred Urban as Stage Manager. The organization will continue its tour at the expiration of the engagement in St. Louis, and Cincinnati, Cni- cago and Cleveland will be the next cities to be visited. Miss Ida Muelle, the petite prima donna of the California Opera Co., is a clever, consci- entious artist and has proven a potent attrac- tion at Schnaider’s Garden. Manager Kreling recognized this fact and displayed managerial foresight when he offered inducement sum. cient to retain ber and cause her to cancel her engagement with McVicker of Chicago, where she was to have played Ariel in Shakspeare’s ‘‘Tempest,’’ in the elaborate production Manager McVicker is giving with great success in his Chicago theater this summer. The following operas have been performed at tne Paris Opera-house over 100 times: Meyerbeer’s ‘‘Huguenots,’’ 821 times; ‘‘Rob- ert le Diable, 718; ‘‘Africaine,’’ 899; **Prophete,’’ 741.

A Liege musician, M. Joseph Martin, has attempted a novel experimenton the violin. He has added another E string, which he places beside the other at a distance of one millimetre (.398 ofa line) so that the fingers may press both strings at once. The result is that the sounds are fuller, more harmonious and more powerful. The second E string Lan be applied to any violin without alterin itin the least. M.

The effect was electrical in every sense of the word. From the air overhead—sv, at least, it seemed to the old gentleman, in his bewlider- ment—men began to rain down, com their toilets as they fell.

Itis a pleasant old mansion in which Mr. Whittier dwells, stand- ing back some distance from the street and surrounded with lovely old trees;a place restful indeed and full of domestic happiness such as one of Mr. Whittier’s simple tastes must thoroughly enjoy. | The old poet received me in that simple, cordial manner so characteristic of him, d inviting me into his little study, or libraty, bade me be seated in a cosy rocking-chair, which he extended to me, and taking a seat at my side he proceeded to ask me how farlI had come, and where my home was. Mr. Whittier is a tall man, at least six feet in height, and, though more than 80 years of age, bis eye is still bright and his step elastic. His face wears a quiet, thoughtful expression, and his voice is singularly swect and musical. His dress is the plain, conven- tional garb of the Quaker—a dark, high-but- toned vest, the coat the black cut-away, with only the faintest suggestion of velvet upon the coliar and the facing of the small ear- shaped lapels. With the exception of mustache, the poet wears a full beard, not particularly long or heavy, which like HIS HAIR Is VERY GRAY. I found Mr. Whittier exceedingly conver- sational, but disposed to be careful respecting his language and comments on va- rious subjects. At a suggestion of mine, the old gentieman was easily ied into an atmosphere ot deliglitful recol- lections of the past, concerning prominent lite- 7 rary men with N. 7 whom he bad been associated/ “7 intimately. Hei fy first spoke of Longfellow, say- ing: Longfellow Was a dear friend ofmine. I think e was the most delightful person J. G. Whittier. whom Lever met, and I’m sure he was a great oot. The last time he came over to Ames ury to see me, Charles Sumner, another warm friend of mine, came with him. During the last few vears of his life we rarely met. A littie while before he died he wrote asking me to come and see him. It was not con- venient for me to go atthe time, but soon afterI got his letter I went down to Cam- bridge. ButI was too late; when I reached his home he was too far gone to see anybody, anda few days passed away. Longfeilow, Emerson, Hawthorne and I were warm friends. Each of us took great pride in the others’ work. We were in the habit of ex- changing notes upon what we had written, and ifone happened to run across a pleasant notice about the other it was cut out of the a) Avery sent to a i on . at is your estimate of Hawthorne, Mr. Whittler?’’ 1 asked. : H, HAWTHORNE, it seems to me, is One of the few great masters of the English language. I think he was su- perior to even Addison, I never beard of one who could build up such lovely stories in lan- guage such as the humblest person could un- derstand. But Hawthorne was unlike most men, he was so sad and shy. Yet I could un- derstand his nature, though most people could not.

Hawthorne and Longfellow were also very painstaking in everything they wrote, though Hawthorne from the reservedness of his temperament seldom went to anybody for a suggestion. 1 was never like the others; I never had any perenne system in anything I id.

PIKE, Manager. 8 ________ Ä—1 long before the war—when I was a temporary resident of Philadelphia, I never enjoyed traveling as most or do, and 1 think Emerson felt a good deal the same way, for he seldom went away from home. in my father’s house, when I was a boy, there were not probably more chan a dozen books, and all were of a peculiar type, or at least would be considered 80 to-day. Why, the only volume in the line of poetry was a rbymed history of King David, the work ofa contemporary of George Cox, the Quaker. There was a novel—a pretty poor one, however—and it belonged to an aunt of mme. I happened to get hold of it one day, but after I bad read it nearly through I was found out and the book was taken from me and hidden, My first look into a volume of real poetry was when my old schoolmaster one day brought a copy of Burns into the house, He read aloud from it and left it with me to read at my leisure, That copy of Burns had all to do in shaping my teste and love for peers and whatever success I have bad in ite Is due to the Scottish bard.’’ Referring to Longfellow againI asked Mr. Whittier if he considered him AS GREAT A POET AS TENNYSON. ‘*Iregard Longfellow as fully the equal of Tennyson,’’ he replied. ‘‘In fact I am in- clined to believe Tennyson has never written anything surpassing the productions of our best American poets. And to-day Longféllow is more popularin England than the laureate. I regard ‘Evangeline’ as one of the greatest of Before Longfeliow wrote it I bad ood deal of pains to hunt up the history of the banishment of the Acadians, with a view to writing upon the subject my- self. 1 kept puttin t off, however, and Hawthorne heard of the story but thought he conidn’t do anything with it, so he gave it to — 1 1 and the subject fell into just the right bands, for nobody living could have told the story so well as ngfellow has told it.
