Lope, July 13- VERY serious state of things in Egypt is staring England in the face. It is almost incredible, but the English have really been taken by sur- prise by the Arab in- Vvaslon after all the warnings given. It has long been wel! known and often an were preparing a su- preme effort against Egypt.. The Children of of the Desert have ionged for ro- venge and lusted for ravage. To poll the Egyptians has deen their watchword ever since the unfortunate evacu- ation ofthe Soudan and here isa horde es- timated at from 8,000 to 10,000 men, already upon the borders of the land with nothing but a handful of native troops to opposethem at the outposts. THE INVADING HCST. Although isolated groups have been twice Gefeated by Colonel Wodehouse with heavy loss, the main body sweeps in like a cloud of locusts, devouring and destroy- ing all before it. Already the Invading host is nearing Assouan, having marched from the second tothe first great cataract with tiger speed. Their checks near Wady Halfa seemed only to have accelerated their advance. The Egyptians have received some reinforcements at Assouan, and others are hurrying to that point, where a general concentration of forces has been or- dered, but it’s likely to be too late. England ie becoming aware of the danger and British troops are being ordered from Malta, Cyprus, Gibraltar and other military stations. Again will she find it necessary to send detachments m home tocheck this new inundation of the fertile valley of the Nile by the barbarians of the desert. RELYING UPON ENGLAND. Something like a panic Is felt in Egypt. As usual the native administration is ready to go to pieces. All look to the English for help and protection. Although the natives have so far fought well under English officers, no dependence can be placed upon them. The British forces in Egypt are scanty. It will be diMicult for them to muster sufficiently strong to stop the invaders at the first cataract. Gen. Grenfel will no doubt do all that can be done with the menat hand, but he will probably be obliged to fall back for reinforce- ments and to secure stronger positions. The Arabs, regardless of strategic rules, are likes ly to rush past Assouan as they left Wady Hal- fa in he rear. This is the great danger. Such is the impetuousness of these untamed warriors it may carry them into the heart of ‘the land before effective opposition can be organized, and then they will have to be ex- terminated by the slow process, by attack in detail. Such is the task devolved upon England, and it has found ber ill prepared to cope with ite ~ . — — — THE SWISS FRONTIER, Rigorous Examinations Enforced by Ger- many—The Berlin Budget. ERLIN, July 18.—The rigor of the exam nations enforced by the German customs authorities on the Swiss frontier has been markedly in- creased since the be- ginning of the con- — troversy between Berne and Berlin, growing out of the Wohlgemuth affair, and the annoyances to which travelers are consequently subjected have had the effect to drive tourists into Austria, rather than Germany. Already Ger- many has found an opportunity to make reprisals upon Switzerland for the summary expulsion by the Swiss authori. ties of the pragmatical Wohigemuth. The Swiss Government has lodged with the Fed eral Council a complaint against Germany's action in expelling from Alsace two brothers named Muller, natives of Trub, a canton of Berne. 80 far as known there was no ground fortheir expulsion except that of their na- tionality, which is possibly sufficient to the German mind in its present state of resent- AUTUMN MANEUVERS, The autumn maneuvers of the military in Hanover and Westphalia will be held in the presence of the Emperor of Germany, the Te —s of his .grandmotber, Augusta, on 30 _ STRIKERS ARRESTED. | Two ot the leaders of the Brunn strike, Sa- botka and Palatschek, were arrested at Brunn to-day.

AT DEATH’S DOOR, The Last Chapter ef Wilkie Collins’ Life Almost Closed, Special Cablegram tothe Post-Dispatch. — ONDON, July 13.— % Within twenty- four hours the change in Wilkie Collins’ condition has caused serious alarm. The first symptoms of the present illness was partial paralysis of the left side at 10 o’clock on the night of June 30 while talking with friends. The nearest physician was called. By next morning nearly the whole left side was paralyzed. His illness was kept a secret even from Collins’ close friends until he Was able to alt up in bed and put the finishing touches to his new novel which the Post-DISPATCH is now publishing and which will assuredly be hislast. All but six chapters had passed through his hands when ne was seized with paralysis. Since then the famous novelist has been able to revise the stenographer’s notes of the concluding chapters and make final amendations to the storv. He did so against the caution of the doctors and the ex- ertion brought on another form of heart malady which to-night threatens to prove fatal within a few days. Since Friday noon his heart has become very weak. Dr. Beard, who is a famous specialist in heart trouble, has been called m. His diag- nosis is very discouraging. Beard has been for years an intimate friend of Collins. He was also the physician of Charles Dickens. Beard will say nothing for publication about Collins’ condition, except that it was very serious. But his closest friends have been informed that probably he is on bis deathbed. Collins is particularly anxious that no publication of the facts concerning his Iiliness be made. He has contracted for after the one he is now pub- of the work ts surely done. THE PARNELL COMMISSION. —— ‘ . What the New Move Means—Future Plaus— : ‘The Tenant League. . not, dut techni- aes p cally the decis- 5 a ion is not of ' much impor- tance, as P Ar- nell’s part of the case is near- ly over. Russell | does not propose to address the Court again, but Reid will reply on the whole case, and Lockwood will address himseif to the Amer!- can part of the defense. Only two more wit- nesses—Dr. Tanner and Matt Harris—will be examined, and then the endless rebutting evi dende, of which the defense has heard noth- ing, will begin. WHAT IT MEANS. Aprominent Parnellite was asked to-day what the move meant. Hesaid: ‘‘We mean that our appealfor justice is not to three law- yers who look upon social revolution with a pedantic regard of small incidents. We have stated our case, and are caring little or nothing what the Commission may re- port. We look to public opinion. In the second place we see no rea- son why we should go on spending all this money without knowing when the Times may think fit to declare its case over, Wereally do think we are being unfairly treated when we are unable to trace before the commission the nfstory of these charges and their origin. Now we are ina position to recdive acguittal without rupture and con- demnation without delight.’’ FORMING A NEW PLAN. A general meeting of the Irish members with their counsel will be held on Monday to decide on their course of action. A reliable rumor says Parnell will move Parliament to select a committee of inquiry into the genesis of the Piggott forgery and the real parties back of the Times ma@ing thé charges. This prom- ises to raise another big Irish fight at the fag end of the session. Davitt bas gone back to Dublin diggusted. He says he will not go near the commission again. Alexander Sullivan’s wife goes to Dublin Monday and sails for home Thursday. As regards the new Tenant League no plan of action hus been decided till after the big convention at Dublin to be presided over by Parnell to arrange the details. Meanwhile all the members of the Irish constabularly have received special instructions to watch care- fully the proceedings of the-new league and take proper steps to report the result to the government. AFTER THE BOTTOM FACTS. The latest information about the Parnell commission situation is up to mid- bight. Mr. Parnell has had subpenas served on Houston, Stalibridge, Rowland, Blennerhasset, Wolf, Flanagan, and all the oftiiciais, past and present, of the Loyal and Patriotic League; also Dr. Foy of Dublin, who introduced Piggott to Houston. Mr.Par- neil deciares that his objeet in insisting on the production ofthe books of the Loyal and Patriotic League is to prove that the forgoing conspired to have ‘‘Parnellism and Crime’’ written and supported by testimony. Subponas have also been ordered upon Buckle, Walter and Albert Gray ofthe Times, When Judge Hannen consents to the pro- duction of the books, Mr. Parnell will with- draw from the case, and instruct his counsel to dothe same. If the books are brought into court and submitted to examination, he has not the slightest doubt that they will prove that Piggott inspired the Times articles on ‘*Parnellism and Crime. The Irish party have knowledge of the fact and want the books to furnish legal proof. — UNDER A SINGLE SCEPTER. The Serbs’ Dream of An Invincible Union of the Balkan Provinces. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 13. ERHAPS the best in- formed correspondent in Servia telegrapbs from Belgrade this at- ternoon that the poli- tical outlook in Ser- via is daily becoming , more serious. There y Can be no longer any doubt as to the atti- — tude of Servia on the outbreak of an Aus tria-Rusgsian war. The alliance of Servia to Russia is an accom- Plished fact. The Czar’s famous toast to Prince Nikola of Monte- negro is regarded in Servia as the open desig- nation of that Prince as tire future Czar of the Southern Slaves and the reuniter of all the Servian race under a single scepter. It is also takento indicate that the great struggle which everyone knows is prepar- ing between Austriaand the great Slavonic power is very near at hand. AUSTRIAN STUPIDITY. Bosnia is the new Lombardy and Austria is deliberately courting a situation similar to that which costherthe valley of the Po. An extraordinary infatuation seems to have seized upon herrulers. All concessions on the Bosnian side are scornfully rejected and hardly a day passes but some infiuential organ of Vienna or Buda-Pesth threatens the occupation of Servia. Among the highest Austrian and Hungarian officials it is believed that the military strength of the monarchy is such as to enabie it to crush Russia singie- handed. The information received by the opponents of Austrian policy in Southeastern Europe is ofa very different tenor. It is considered, for example, certain among the pest informed Russian observers that many ot the Slayonic | regiments of Austria will lay down their arms in the face of a Russian army and that the Roumaniancontingent will follow the exam ple, Au insurrection will inevitably break out in Bosnia ona declaration of war with Russia and the chances are that it will spread to the old military frontier of Croatia and Slavonia. In Transylvania the Roumanian peasants, who have been brutally oppressed by their Hungarian landlords, are at any moment ready to repeat the Jacquirie of 1848 and of the time of Joseph II. IN THE PENINSULA. Of the strength of the Anti-Austrian feeling in the Balkan Peninsula itself, perhaps the best evidence is to be found in the fact that the Beys of Upper Albania, the hereditary foes of Montenegro, have promised to lend their warlike clansmen to Prince Niki- ta’s assistance in the event of a ‘‘Swabian’’ invasion of the Black Mountain. There can be no doubt that the situation is ‘big with hy ' 0 * 4 * Ps * * . eee e ee. n eee e EDM EN eee ue NN 3 * $ r un ion ot Montenegro practically certain that he will resist their union now. The monstrous foily of Austria's occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovinia ls now clearly. seen, The exemple of Bulgaria has proved that it that greater Servia had grown up naturally under her friendly pa- tronage it would have been anything but Rus- sian in feeling, and could have been relied on as a barrier against Russia, But, in obedience to that blind latid-hunger which has always distinguished her, Austria made it her busi- nese to steal part of the Servian heritage, and to reduce the rest to weakness and dépen- dence. She hag had her reward in making an enemy of every patriotic Servian, and in sad- dling herself with a couple of Irelands in the shape of Bosnia and Herzegovinia. Events certainly point toward the appearance of ince Nikola upon the stage of action. SERVIA ARMING.

Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispateh. ~ OME, July 18,—Nego- tlations are in pro- } gress between the Pope and the Italian Premier, Crispi, look- ing toa reconciliation between the Vatican and the Quirinal. The Papalo Romano asserts that the Pope very re- * cently heid a consis- F tory which the Cardl- 42 nals were constrained to attend without their usual attendants. These extraordinary precautions to insure secrecy, coupled with the fact that the session of the consistory lasted two hours, renders it certain that the Cardinals were called to- gether to consider matters of the gravest Im - portance. When in addition to this it is known that Signor Crispi only two days before in the Italian Chamber hinted that steps had been taken by his government looking to an exchange of views with the Vatican, it became reasonably certain that the Cardinals had under consideration the whole question of a reconcillation with the government of King Humbert. - — — * A BRILLIANT MATCH, An American G to Marry Lord Fitz- maurice—Society Events, Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LonpDow, July 18. N society sets over gerald is considered to have made a remark- ably brilliant matob. Fitzmeurice has no money to speak of, yet he has a far stronger social hold than Joe Chamberlain, and a place is always fqund for him at notable din- ner -tables which even the Duke of Marlbor- cannot ap- proach. In clubdom and among politicians who do not let their official duties interfere with their social enjoyment, Lord Edmund Fitzmaurice is considered a good deal of a prig.

He is essentially a student, with fond ness for Orientai languages and legends. It was while pursuing these studies that he met the American girl whom he is going to marry. HOW HE LOOKS. Lord Edmund is 4 years old, thin, slightly bald, with close-cropped beard, and wears spectacles. People who know him best say he is oue of the most clever dinner-table talkers in London. Since Diike retired from politics there is no member of the Liberal party in the House of Commons—Mr. Giadstone excepted—who has Fitgmaurice’s knowledge of diplomatic questions. When tho Liberals get into power again he is booked for a place in the Government. Lord Edmund was obliged to answer questions in the House of Commons tor the foreign office during the stormy years of 1881-8. While Gladstone was in power, his chief, Lord Granville, was in the House of Lords. Edmund’s record as Under-Secretary was very good. He was ap- pointed to pacify the Brooks Club, of which he was an active member. He is a hard worker, a great reader and has a multitude of facts at his fingers ends; well up on the Eastern ques- tion and has been special envoy of the British Government to India. He has written much on Eastern manners and customs. THE FUTURE LADY FITZMAURICE. Miss Fitzgerald is 21, of short stature, blue eyes and dark hair. Her mother, who isa daughter of Eli White of New York, is rich. She owns real estate there. They live at 91 Fifth avenue and spend the summers at Litch- field, Conn. Miss Fitzgerald has two brothers —oOne an artist in Paris and the other studying law in London with agrandson of Earl Rus- sell. He is going to enter Trinity College at Cambridge. Miss Fitzgerald’s wonderful knowledge of languages and her deep erudi- tion for a girl ot her age brought her ia ~ontact with the chief literary people of London. She has just published a volume of poems called ‘*Venetia Victrix,’’ which is attracting much attention and favorable reviews. The marriage will probably take place next autumn. The bridal trip will be made in India to visit Edmund’s brother—Lansdowne, Vice- roy of India. Great preparations are being made for the wedding of Naylor Leyland to Jennie Cham- berlain, which is now fixed to take place in September with great pomp and display. Homeward bound: Wm. M. Ivins, on the Umbria; Marshali Wilder and Benjamin Davenport, on the City of Rome; Helen Dauvray Ward, on the Augusta Victoria; Patti Rosa, on the Alaska; Evans and Hoey, Mrs. Logan and Miss Puliman, on the Trave. — —— — FAMOUS PAINTINGS.

The thoroughly representative figures in one were painted by Vander Veide, These pictures realized $44,625, and were bought by dealers. Ons of them goes back to Secretan, who fg not quite ruined. The other is said to be intended for America. ‘‘The Heizhts of Suresnes,’’ by Troyon, realized $15,000. Another work by the same painter brought slightly less. Prices generally were higher than the Secre- tan pictures sold for in Paris last week, but such a boom have the Secretan pictures re- ceived that the French dealers declared that they would have fetched % per cent More iB Paris. Among the pictures of the collection of the late Col. McMurdo sold were two Men- soniers—‘‘The Vedette’’ and The Muske- teers,’’ which realized $8,400 and $6,500. A large Diaz brought . 400. The Death of Lucretia,’’ by Rembrandt, went for nearly $20,000. Among the dealers present were Sedelmeyer, Boussod, Arnold, Durandruel and Knoedler. Many of the pictures sold are @x- pected to find their way to New York. There isa great boom here in engravings and etchings ot The Angelus. Millet’s Masterpiece. Special Cablegram ta the Post-Dispatch. ARIS, July 13.—The chances are about ten to one that Sut- ton’s offer to give $10,000 to the poor will be accepted and „Angelus“? go to America. Whilst the Deputies are wasting the few remaining hours of the session with noisineas, and fist-play amateurs all over France are asking anxiously why Minister Fal- lieres does not ask the chamber for a vote of 600,000 francs necessary for the purchase of ‘‘L’ Angelus’* by the State. It was announced that the demand would be made Tuesday. The fact is that Fallleres feels he dare not get the affront of the opposition with any such proposal and wishes to let the present riotous State Parliament be the excuse for his silence. The Government knows well that the chamber will refuse the money by a large majority. In other years the money would have been found immediately, but in the face of the coming election few deputies will have sufficient courage to vote for the use of so large a sum for the gratification of patri- otism ina matter of art. THE POLITICAL EFFECT. The deputies who have already made up their minds to oppose the vote foresee what political capital would surely be made against them at the next elections if they did otherwise. Such a telling argument why an electorate should not support a man who calmly wastes 600,000 francs of public money at a time when s0 many pressing wants have been refused for lack of it, would be made agaiast him. The Gov- ernment don’t now want even to a8k for money. They knew that the mere fact of their having asked for it will be used against them. Falleriesis, however, a man of bis word, and will certainly bring the demand before the House as soon asthe Boulangists give him breathing time. The vote will be refused by a majority of over 100, while many deputies will abstain from voting altogether. Tothis the hysterical friends of ‘‘L’Angelus’’ have al- ready made up their minds. THE PICTURE MUST GO. Albert Wolff, in a two-column article in Figas o says that ‘‘L’Angelers’’ is bound to go, but thot the eagerness of Americans to possess it and the glory of its having realized so big a sum lays an unction on hearts which would otherwise have bled at its loss. He says that even after the death of Millett it has bad no luck. The terrible calamity at Saint Ftienne just came at a moment to dilute the national enthusiasm over the picture. ’ Lockroy, ex-Minister, is also of the opinion that the picture is bound togo. The mem- bers of the syndicate who are now its pro- prietors, seem to think that in spite of the re- fusal of the Chamber the money will be found by private persons to reimburse them, 80 that the picture may stay for the Louvre. This is also the opinion of most picture dealers. The papers, almoat with- out exception, are advising the syndicate to accept Sutton’s ofter. Whatever they may do it iscertain that the Syndicate won't keep the picture long. Some of its members are already fidgeting to get their money back before“ The Angelus’’drops in value. Over two-thirds of the visitors who sub- scribed to the Mme. Millet fund are Amer icans. — = ib OUP Sev eee ON THE AMERICAN PLAN. Stirring Scenes in the French Chamber of Deputies—Gen. Boulanger. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. ARIS, July 138.—The ® expiring hours of the French Chamber of Deputies are marked hy scenes of unusual violence. There was a cuimin- ation of disorder . to-night when the House passed the bill forbidding mul- tiple candidacy, or one man running for different seats. M. Le Herisse, violently denounced the partisan measures di- rected against Gen. Boulanger. Beside himself with passion he pointed his finger atM. Constans on the ministerial bench and screamed: ‘‘The Minister of the Interior there ought to be in the felon’s dock. Here the spesker’s voice was over- whelmed by the uproar it created. The house wildly demanded his expulsion. He was not even asked to apologize. President Meline passed censure upon him and sentenced him to be excluded from the chamber. M. Le Herisse refused to leave the tribune. No one dared to touch him there, and to get rid of him the Chamber adjourned until Monday, leaving the expelled member in possession of the house. the blind from tribune, THE FRENCH WAVY. The supplementary estimates for the navy came up in the French Chamber of Deputies yesterday and Vice Admiral Dompierre D’Hornoy, Conservative, who is urg- ing «a radical reconstruction of the entire ravy at great expense, made rather an alarmist speech, pointing out that the French navy compared unfavorably witb that of neighboring powers. In calling at- tention tothe recent heavy expenditures by other nations upon their marines he gave some elaborate figures for the United States, who, he said, hau just some to that > 5 2 2 1 f 28 ; 8 Wd * 9 x * 2 > 2 y 2 ee zy * i 8 ’ 2 8 2 1 4 25 A betsy 8 * *. 92 7 * ij vn J ba NS or . .

Under these conditions he has found it impossible to make any real headway in London society and has abandoned any efforts in that direction. He speaks English fairly well. To those whom he meets he speaks of his sojourn bere as in- tolerable and discusses somewhat freely his political plans. In short Gen. Boulanger’s programme seems to be the Americanization of the French Republic. He has evidently studied the Washington system, with its Oab- inet fixed for the term of the President’s ten- ure, the respective functions of the French Chambers and of Congress and is clearly of the opinion that revision as the remedy for instability of Government in France must take shape from the American pattern. CHOLERA ON BOARD. The Austrian Lloyds steamship Caledonian from Singapore is quarantined at Marseilles with cholera on board. She has I passen- gers and many of them are prostrated with the disease. Two passengers died during the voyage. The arrival of the Caledonian has caused great alarm in Marseilles, though the authorities declare that there is not the re- motest danger that the quarantine can be ineffective. NATIONAL CONCERTS. In connection with the exhibition a series of concerts has been organized at which the music of each nation is performed. It was in accordance with this broad and liberal scheme that the concert made up solely of music by American composers was given at the Trocadero yesterday afternoon. It took place in the Grand Hall, which, although of immense size, was completely filled. The majority of the audience were Americans, and they took great interest in the performance, although some of the selections were unfamiliar even to them. Frank Van Der Stucken of New York was the director and conductor of the concert, and ar- ranged a programme which included the best works of the best known composers in the United States. The French portion of the audience listened with curiosity, but critics to-day are lukewarm in their remarks, fluding that the compositions lack originality, — PANIC AT A PICNIC. Two Hundred People in Torture From Eat- ing Poisonous Ice Cream, By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATcH. , MONTREAL, Quebec July 13.

Atachurch ple- OF 4 nic, Thursday, nearly ‘Vy all present partook 2. * freely of ice cream which had been kept over night in zinc free, ers. Shortly after several of the picknick- ers were seized with cramps and convulsions, In less than an hour 200 men, women and children were strewn about the grounds convulsed with agony. The town only had two doctors, but these, recognizing the symp- toms and the seriousness of the calamity, summoned additional aid from Kingston, twenty-two miles away. A strong force of physicians was soon on hand and began ad- ministering antidotes, at which work they were kept busy the remainder of the day and night. Good fortune attended their efforts, as so far no fatalities have occurred, although many of the patients are still in imminent danger. Dr. Bowen of Seeleys made an anal- ysis of the cream and found that tue poison- ing was due to lactate of zinc, which it con- tained in large quantities. GAS WELLS ON FIRE. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatci. RUTHVEN, Ontario, July 13.— There has been trouble between the ownersof the Rutbven gas wells, the only ones in Western Canada, and the laborers for some time past, and Wednesday night some one supposed to be a friend of the laborers, broke off the escape-pipe of gas well No. 1 close to the ground and touched a lighted match toit. It blazed up fully fifty feet in the air, and the roar wes so great that the peopie in the town were alarmed and turned out en masse. It has deen burning ever since and 8,000,000 feet of gas is being wasted every day. The roar is terrific, and sleep in town impossible. Attemptsto quench the flames have been unsuccessful. The heat. is so intense that the pipes of the wells 100 yards away have melted, and three of them are burning. Experts from Ohio have been at work all day trying to stop the flame, but are entirely unsuccessful. The pipes are gradually melting to the ground, and it is feared by the townspeople that when they get below the surface there will be an explosion. The flames from the burning wells can be seen twenty miles away. Ifthe pipe of well No. 1 continues to melt away to- morrow at the rate it has to-day it will be level with the surface of the ground by to-mor- row night. It is said oy those who are working to put out the fire that when they approach within 400 feet they are for a time rendered deaf and reduced to a condition of sveechiessness by a terror whichis sure and irresistible. The experts are still working and claim to have hope of quenching the fire. UNITED IN DEATH. The Tragic Sequel of a Lovers’ Quarrel at Munich. VIENNA, July 18.—A highly sensational dou- ble tragedy has occurred at Munich. The Baroness Acton, sister of the German Minis- ter, was betrothed to Count Waldemar Blumenthal, Prussian military attache. A quarrel arose between them, which although an ordina:y lovers’ dispute, so vreyed on the young lady's mind that she went distraught. In the middle of the night she took a boat, rowed into the center of the lake known as the Tergemesee und, throwing herselfinto the water was drowned. When the Count heard of the sad tate of his betrothed he retired to his chamber. His friends, Knowing his an- guish, suspected he would attempt his lite. They sought his chamber. It was locked. As they knocked for admission a pistol-shot was heard within. They burst open tne door and beneld the Count stretched on the bed dying, with a bullet in the brain.

By Telegraph to the PostT-DISPATCH. i ASHINGTON, D. C., July 13.—The Missouri colony to-night is feel- ing very much disappointed. It has been held out to them for a week past that there would be appointments which would elate them, whether other individuals were disappoint- ed ornot. Early inthe week acall was made upon the President, when he inti- mated that the course being pursued by the Missouri press was proper to be continued. That course was that George Bain would be appointed toa Consulate and that there would be Treasury appointments and others from other departments. The intimations were such as induced correspondents to represent that what was to be done for the State could be done at once or in the iminediate future. As yet nothing that was jutimated has materialized, and, as a conse- quence, those interested are feeling very sore. What the Treasury may be dis- posed to do does not require the re- view of the Executive. When the Secretary agrees upon some one for collector, surveyor or appraiser that is the finaleofthecase. Maj. Brock has called upon the Secretary in relation to Mr. Lindman of St. Joseph, for appraiser and beyond this nothing new has been done regarding the offices at the disposal of the Treasury. It was expected that anything which was to be done would be completed by Friday, which precluded anything being said for one or another candidate by parties who might come here. John W. Profs. the recent report was based, was written by one of the most strenuous opposers of all the schemes that have come up for making a nutional university in the ordinary sense at Washington. **The writer cannot unedrtake to give here the scheme designed to work out the ideal of Washington, of a university meeting of the best youth of the country forcertain infiu- ences of a common university life at the Capi- tal. But some idea can be given which will at least check such absurd objections as that of Prof. Brush of Yale. Let us suppose that Brush, Brewer and Verrill of the Scientific School are Fir- certain exceptionally valuabe courses of lectures to classes of forty each and that elsewhere through the country are enough more to make in all 400 students competent to make the best of such lectures. Then, suppose that for the next year these professors should come with these lectures to Washington, and have here the whole 400 together, with perhaps 200 to more who would pay for tickets to these courses, out of the great number of Washing- ton residents who are here in the season from all parts of the country, and with still other 500 to 1,000 persons who would specially come for ten weeks of such superior instruction. Would Prof. Brush have the face to call this licensing a few professors to go around and kill their game? This is the essential feature of. the pian. The rest of the scheme is on lines in- tended to put absolute control from first to last into the bands of representatives of the united governing and teaching bodies, as per- fectly excluding p lities as under any univer- sity charter in existence, and the government having no other hand in it than the gift of its charter and the paying of its expenses, pro- tessors, students, buildings and all. Must Pay Additional Duty. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 13.— Minister {yan recently reported to the State Depart- ment that there was much dissatisfaction in Mexico relative to the practice of assessing goods arriving at United States ports in Mexi- can vessels at the rate of 10 per cent in excess of the regularduties. The Minister’s letter was referred to the Treasury Department, and the State Department has just received an answer which states that the additional duty of 10 per cent is always assessed on goods arriving in the country on foreign ves- sels unless the country to which the vessels belong has a treaty stipulation with the United States covering that point. Goods imported on United States vessels are exempt from ad- ditional duty. The Quay-Sherman Fight. By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 13.—The appoint- ment of Alphonzo Hart of Ohio to be Solicitor of Internal Revenus, which was finally an- nounced at the White House to-day, is the end of the long strug- gle between Senators Quay and Sherman. Senator Quay wanted the appointmentfor B. F. Gilkeson of Pennsylvania and in recom- Gates arrived at a lute time in the week and saw the President. What he said or did is not known. He came here quietiy, went to Welker’s, asecluded resort, and did every- thing TO ELUDE THE PRESS. He might have ventured assertions which precluded some Missouri appointments. The fecling which he cherishes for Chauncey I. Filley might have been the means of bringing out some antipathy which would work disaster to what nas been agreed upon. All investigation leads to Col. Gates’ early departure. The hotel clerk said he left yesterday. This af- ternoon Maj. J. 8. Brock called at the Treas- ury aud learned that the Chiet of the Bureau oi statistics would bea matter of considera- tion on Monday or Tuesday. Ofcourse, it is a delicate matter for him, an applicant for the place, to approach, but bis heavy indorse- ments, and the assurance given by his warm friend, Gen. Clarkson of the Post-office Department, lead him to presume upon his rights to approach the Secretary of the Treasury upon the subject. The latter said in every talk had with him that Brock stood well ustie candidate for the place, and further General Glarkson was advised that Brock would be the man. ihe head of the secret service is a matter of contention also, and while the Secretary of the lreasury has said that it waa a matter for late consideration, many believe the appoint- ment will be made in a short time. lhomas Furlong of St. Louis is the principle candidate. He is an intimate rend of Russell Harrison und served the Governor of Indiana in a special capacity dur- lug the lastcampaign. There ie a big pile of protests against his appointment, but that is the result of the enemies he has made in his business and is naturally expected. Furlong 1s bere and bas been fora week. He is a sober, ladustrious man in his profession and is thoroughly known to the administration. Among others who want places is Frank Lrskine, an old railroad detéctive of Missouri, ‘lo has been backed by Ex-Goy. Fletcher of — Stato. The Governor, in fact, is still iere PUSHING HIS CHANCES. Erskine has many friends and among them Many of the present officials in the secret Service. The latter said to-day that he did bot think Furlong would make it. Another gentleman from Missouri, who 1s here and who was formerly an aspirant for a treasury auditorship, is Mr. A. C. Widde- combo. He said to-nightthat he had aban- doned such a pursuit and that really he was never an aspirant for such a place. lle had thought from the good service be had done the Republican party n Missourlas Chairman of the State Central Committee, that he was entitled to something, buthe did notthink it proper that he should come forward and ask for it; What he did Want was the place given Hiram Smith of Cameron, Mo., Assistant Commissioner of Pensions, but now that the place had been piven out, he asked nothing but a few „stoic removals in the Boonville district, - Mr, Widdecamp felt sorry that Missouri had to go hegging for what few places she wanted, but predicted that in the end the Admunistra- tion would satisfy all concerned.

C., July 13.—The story of the rescue of the White slave in Yucatan created quite a sensation in Washington to- day, but the Blaine’s are all out of town, and there is nobody here competent to speak for the State Department. Not one of the officials seems even to know of the report sent to the department some time ago by Consul Thompson. Senor Romero, the Mexican Minister, is also absent. He went to Europe a few weeks ago and is not expected back in less than three months. Mr. Horr’s Declination. By Telegraph tc the POST-DISPATCRH. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 138.—At the State Department it is learned that Roswell G. Horr’s declination of the Consulship to Val- paraiso was not unexpected. When the ap- pointment was made and when the President signed the commission he said he was afraid Mr. Horr would not accept. In speaking of the matter Walker Blaine said that appointment only showed the terrible pressure upon the administration for offices when aman of such ability as Mr. Horr could only be given the Consulship to Valparaiso.

Since August 3, 1887, when the purchase of bonds by the Government was first authorized, up to and including to-day, the amount purchased is $175,084,600, ata cost of $201,790,367.02. About two-thirds. of the purchases were 412 per cents and the re- mainder were4 per cents. * Mr. Bailey Takes the Place. WASHINGTON, D.

By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcnu. Prrrs BURG, Pa., July 18. HIS was a quiet day in Homestead pending the conterence in Pittsburg at 5:30 to-night. ‘All the saloons closed per request of the officials of the Amalgamated As- sociation, who were at- tending the Pittsburg conference and who in- dicated their desire by telegraph. The quiet day followed a sleepless night. At3o’clock this morning bells were rung and hundredg of sleepers appeared half clad on the streets and rushed to the mill. A report had been circulated that two train loads of non-Union workmen from Indianapolis were approaching the town. Happily it proved a false alarm, but it gives warning of the warm reception new comers will get. Two hundred women, wives and daughters of the strikers, did guard duty ina field all night. They kept a close lookout for Pinkerton detectives and non-union men, but were not rewarded with the sight of a single hated invader. The 3,000 employes of Mr. Carnegie’s big steel rail mill, the Edgar Thompson at Braddock, just across the river from Homestead are still sore over their defeat a yoar ago, and are again dis- cussing the question of a strike. If the Homestead strike continues the Braddock men may come out also. They belong to no labor organization. One condition of re- employment imposed by Mr. Carnegie was that they should sign the wage scale individu- ally, thus RENOUNCING THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR. The Amalgamated Association made no claim to the Braddock mill. The union workingmen of Joliet, III., telegraphed the Homestead strikers to-day that they would contribute $50 a month to their support. To-day the Nation- al Convention of Window Glass Workers by a unanimous vote passed resolutions attacking | Mr. Carmegie and bis partner, Mr. Henry Phipps, who they said were building public libraries and conservatories ostensibly to elevate the workingmen, but really. to blind the public eye to the glaringly unjust reductions in wages by which the donors were reimbursed five-fold. Itis said the truce will be maintained until Monday and that until then no new move will be made by Carnegie, Phipps & Co. Emil Dorrner, the Pittsburg employment agent, to-day said he had seven- to-ftlve non-union men ready to go to Hlomestead. There was a big crowd at the court- house in Pittsburg all day. It included the 125 deputies who were sent to Homestead by Sheriff McCandless yesterday, and who could not withstand the threats of the strikers and THE TEARFUL APPEAS wives and children. reported for duty at the to-day and with them or four hundred others who desired to serve in the same capacity, but were not utilized. An instance of the day at Home- stead is the ill-feeling against the Pittsburg newspaper reporters, which came to the sur- face as the result of warning editorials. The managing editor of one evening newspaper was told that none of his reporters would be allowed to remain in Homestead for a moment. It was intimated that bodily harm might be done. The managing editor,“who was in Homestead at the time, told the striker, who aeted as spokesman for his com- rades, that he would send up anew man cach day until the entire force of reporters was killed. The conference will be resumed at 9 o’clock to-morrow. They all court-house were three of their The Brazil Strikers. By Telegraph to the POsST-DISPATCH.

RR Ir the citizens of St. Louis had obeyed the sounding call to arms of the attor- neys of the tin-horse gamblers and stormed the Four Courts, they would be in danger of imprisonment for contempt of court. ese MIDSUMMER in St. Louis has not abated the interest of our citizens in dramatic affairs, and the first statement of the at- tractions which are promised them for the coming season will be found in our tele- graphic columns. — — — WuHItE Mayor Noonan is away he is putting in his time looking into the mu- nicipal improvements which St. Louis needs. Our special dispatches from New York give our readers full information about the Mayor’s activity. WHEN the iron-workers in the Carnegie mills at Homestead were promised the benefits of protection as an inducement to vote for HARRISON they did not under- stand that they were so soon to expect the presence of PINKERTON’S mercenaries armed with the familiar Winchester. THERE are strong indications that the cause of the disappointment of Missouri office-seekers is not so much the unwill- ingness of the President to do something for Missouri as the unwillingness of Mis- sourians to have the President do some- thing for other Missourians. The Repub- lican leaders of the State should try pulling together awhile. — — m ————_——_—— IN the long and rapidly lengthening roll of trusts there is none more remark- able than the trust which has been so long and successfully maintained in St. Louis in the matter of fire insurance. The struggle between the St. Louis Board of Underwriters andthe new insurance law will be as interesting in its way as the recent mill at Richburg. — 0. — — Tne farcical nature of the Parnell trial, asfar as justice is concerned, becomes more and more apparent as it progresses. The commission was organized to ruin PARNELL and aid the Tory cause, and every decision of Judge HANNEN shows that he knows what he was put in his position for. His last decision forbidding the Parnell counsel to probe into the Times conspiracy is a palpable twist of authority to save the Government. Tue Board of Directors of the Mercan- tiie Library have done no more than jus- tice to the long services and high charac- ter of their late librarian in the memorial resolutions we print to-day. As long as the library lasts the name of JOHN NAPIER DYER will be inseparably associated with it by the strongest and tenderest ties, and we can wish his successor no better fortune than to make a revord as worthy and as enduring. THE celebration of the fall of the Bastile to-day will also be the cel- ebration of the centennial of the dec- laration of liberty in France. The French-Amerieans of St. Louis have made elaborate preparation for the double commemoration, and there is no doubt that it will be worthy of the occa- sion. Wevoice the sentiment of all uative Americans in wishing long life and pros- perity to our French fellow-citizens and to the Republic across the sea. _ Oe - @o —— - — everybody wants bn account of a trifling and very questionable technicality. * THe Herald of Chicago says the street cars in that city travel in the clouds of dust they raise, the horses covered with „dust and the passengers’ lungs filled ‘‘with dust.“ Chicago is still so far be- hind the age as to depend on street car companies and private property owners to have the streets sprinkled. But her news- papers are to blame. The same condition of things prevailed here till the PostT- DISPATCH aroused the people to the better way. They would not give up our present system of sprinkling for four times its cost. ——, a PRIZ® FIGHTING CANT. Either the American people are guilty of a vast amount of hypocritical cant or the laws against -prize fighting and the applied by State authorities are woefully out of accord with public sentiment. Scarcely less disgusting than the recent spectacle of two men beating and man- gling each other in order that they and their backers might make money by gambling or by selling tickets to, those who delight in such scenes is that other spectacle of the Governors of five States making denkeys of themselves and roarivg farces of legal authority trying to prevent the fight and failing to do so. That Gov. Lowry, in whose State the fight happened to be held, did not spcceed in preventing it, cannot be excused on the gers were secret. Nor does the responsi- bility for its occurrence rest with him alone. The plans were made and exe- cuted openly and defiantly. One puzgilist trained in New York State and the other in Maryland. The articles for the fight were drawn up and signed with a flourish of trumpets in New York City. Both men crossed a number of intervening States to reach the place of battle. Both stopped several days in New Or- leaus preparing for the event. Tick- ets were sold there and several trains loaded with spectators started from that city for the fighting ground. The newspapers published all these facts. And finally the Sheriff of the county, knowing that the fight was to take place, was either frightened or bribed into leav- ing the scene when he had State militia within cal) especially provided to execute his orders. To cap the climax, one of the sluggers was arrested several days after the match and was released at onceon habeas corpus proceedings. The incidents referred to are not ex- ceptional, but are frequent occurrences, Indiana boasts a stringent law against prize fighting. but the Myer-McAuliffe fight took place in Indiana a few months ago. Missouri has severe laws against it, but they are broken with impunity. So with all the States. Isn’t it high time to have done with cant and farce, and to place prize fighting on a genuine basis? If the opposi- tion to prize fighting is only a sen- timent which is willing that two men may slug each other if they choose to indulge in such brutality, which permits a deep interest inthe men, enjoys the discvomfiture or smiles at the bribery of luw officers in its interest, abolish the laws against it. If, on the other hand, the opposition is an honest opinion thatit should be put down as altogether pernicious to society, let us have efficient laws against it iu all the States. Make the signing of articles, preparing for, engaging in and viewing a prize fight crimes. Let the stakes be for- feited wherever held and the gate receipts be seized for the State. And as the big- gest criminal is generally the sheriff who fnils to stop a fight, have the authorities held to strict accountability for the en- forcemgnt of the law. confidence game be played on them after they have seen its workings in the late New York election, the party must owe all its chances of success to irrepressible popular impulses and not to its organi- zation; it will have to win in spite of its committee, if it win at all. THIS IS 1889. St. Louis has a small, noisy, obstreper- ous section of what may be called the universal opposition party. This party is mude of obstructionists by nature with the natural tendency to kick so thor- oughly developed by practice that it has become chronic. Nothing is so good, wise or beneficial that reasons. for oppos- ing it cannot be scared up. The members of the party don’t want improvement; they don’t want anything new or better methods of attempting to enforce them than what is and doubtless they wouldn’t be in favor of what is, if some one should assert thatit is in the line of progress. They are steeped in the concentrated quintessence of mulish old fogyism. To them an elevated railway is a new- fangled fraud invented to ruin property, abolish privacy and kill men, women and children; a cable road is a noisy nuisance; im short, nothing can compare with the easy jogging, pleasant, safe and slow horse car, which has finally been accepted by them as better than walking. They don’t want too many railroads, and they want none to run into the city for fear | somebody’s weed patch may be destroyed, ground that the plans of the mill mana- some old citizen’s slumber may be dis- turbed, or some shop-window may be ob- scured. They don’t want the city insti- tutions improved or the new Union Mar- ket arcade built, because we have been „gittin'““ along with the old institutions and market sheds for a good many years and can still “git” along.with them. They need someone to ring the bell, wake them up and tell them that this is 1889; that St. Louis coyers several more miles of territory and contains 100,000 more people thanit didten yearsago. They need to be told that old St. Louis, which they knew before they fell asleep, died and was resurrected into new St. Louis. The opposition people may as well take warning now that if they do not jog along briskly with the procession they will be run over by the locomotives steaming to the doors of warehouses in the heart of the city or by the cable cars running in all directions, or scared to death by the ele- vated trains—they will never catch them. The obstructionists must go and the im- provements must come. _ EO WE reprint from Harper’s Weekly an in- teresting sketch of the present condition of Tammany Hall and of the men who now control it. It is the strongest political organization that any free government has ever known, and its mastery of the politics of New Yerk City is absolute and unquestioned. This is a good thing for Tammany, but whether it is a good thing or not for the five millions of Democratic voters who have no share in the spoils of New York City is another question. — — -¼ꝛ AN energetic statisticlan has compiled the list of fatalities resulting from the eating of ice cream. The record places ice cream high up among the causes of death, but it is won- derful with what gmiling indifterence girls are willing to take awful risks of death at the expense of their adutfrers. Now if some sta- tistician would prove that ice cream ruined the complexion and the figure there would be some hope of relief for the boys. Wi concede to Boston the highest type of physical culture, but we must insist on claim- ing the first prize for moral perfection.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal. Notonly has Mr. Harrison, as yet, had no time for statesmanship, but he has not had the leisure to define his position on the Na- tional flower problem. It is likely, however, that he would look to the hereditary qualities of the blossom if he were to make a choice.

A correspondent calls attention to the fact that the only level, arable and fertile tract of land in the South without negroes is Cullman County, Alabama. There are now only t- teen negroes in the county in a census popu- lation in 1880 of upward of 6,000. This is one of the counties in which the Democrats are accused of depriving the negroes of the suf- frage by violence and fraud. Give Harrison a Rest. From the Boston Globe. Nobody begrudges the President a good rest every Sunday, anddzew will begrudge him a yachting excursion on that day if he wants It. The vulnerable point about these excursions is the sanctimonious pretence that they are something different from the boating and fish- ing excursions that wickeder people some- times take, more or less surreptitiously, on Sunday.

A Mob Driven Back bya Sheriff's Posse—Two ' Men Wounded. BRACEVILLE, III., July 14.—A mob of two hundred striking miners from this place, Kureka and Braidwood started for the Godley mine to-day to intimidate the men about to take their places. The Sheriff, with twenty-five men, intercepted the mob and ordered them to return, This they refused to da and the sheriff fired upon them, wounding two. The posse then attacked the mob with their clubs, driving them back. Warrants have been sworn out for the arrest of the sheriff and his deputies. It is probable that there will be further trouble. Coal operators and miners will meet at LaSalle on Monday at the request of the Governor with a view to the settlement of the existing trouble. LOST IN A FLOOD. A Family of Four Persons Drowned by a Torrent in Nebra ka. FORT ROBINSON, Neb., July 13.—A cloud burst occurred on Soldier Creek Valiey about 8 o’clock to-night. Some of the waves were six feet high. Four people Marsh Duncan and three of his children, are known to have been drowned. It is feared that many other lives have been lost. Col. Teliord bas sent out a company of the Eighth Infantry to search for the dead bodies, and carry assistance to the sufferers. Terrible Collision. Ort City, Pa., July 13.—This afternoon, about 5 o'clock, a terrible collision occurred on the Western New York & Penn- sylvania Railroad, on a sharp curve near Petroleum Center, seven miles from this city. Master Mechanic Newman of the company, with Engineer Stone, were trying the speed of a new engine, when they suddenly collided with a freight train coming south. Brakeman Martin Timlin of the freight was caught be- tween a flat- car and an oll-tauk and was killed. He resided in Albany, and was the only support of a widowed mother, Engineer Stone had his nose cut off. Master Mechanic Newman had his band badly crushed. Engineer Van Dresser and his fire- man of the freight were both painfully but not seriously injured. Both engines and sev- eral cars were badly wrecked. Victory for the Cutter Kathleen, MARBLEHEAD, Mass., July 13.—The Corin- thian Cacht.Club race was sailed here to-day. The New York cutter Kathleen, which defeated the Saracen at New York a few weeks ago, was a competitor for the first class, with the Sarachen, Beetle, Elf and Mignon. In the other five classes there were seventeon starters, but the interest centered chicfly in the larger boats. The course was ten miles. The wind was moderate. The Saracen took the lead atthe start and held it to the finish, winning the special prize of $50. The suwmary of the first-class yachts was as follows: Elapsed Time.

IDS for the con- \ struction of a wing to the Museum of Fine Arts on Nine- teenth street and Lacas place are now under considera- tion, and will prob- ably be passed on this week. In case any one of them is acceptable, work on the addition will be begun in the near future. The addi tion proposed is in accordance with the é original plans of the ., museum as prepared * 5 by Peabody and Stearns. It will de 128 feet on St. Charles street, about 35 feet on the east end, 78 feet on the west end, which will adjoin Memorial Hall, but will be sufficiently separated to permit the entrance of plenty of air and light, and about 8 feet at the end, which end will face the rear of the east wing of the Museum as it now stands. The addition, as will be seen from the dimensions will bein an Lshape. It will be connected with the main building and Memorial Halls by means of iron bridges. It is the intention of tne directors at present not to have more than one story of the addition completed for a while and to roof the story erected 80 that the addition will answer very well the purpose of an art class-room, to which it will be converted. The art classes are now held in the Washington University building on Eighteenth and Washington auenue, and the necessity of the trips to and from the ciass- roous of the Museum caused a considerable loss oftime. It has been the desire of Di- rector Halsey C. Ives for some time to have a Class-room at the Museum, and now that there is sufficient money on hand to build an addition for that purpose the directors have decided to make the improvement. It is not perhaps generally known that the Museum as originally designed would cover three timesthe space occupied by it at pres- ent, and that it ts the intention of the di- rectors to carry out the orignal plans as their moaas will permit. The building of the wing to front on St. Charles street isastep in this direction, When suifticient money has been raised the second story of this addition and the galleries will then be built. When this is done the great amout of material now on hand for which there is no adequate exhibition room, will be Placed in the addition. In the collection of Une arts, which have no place inthe museum at present ior want of sufficient space, every modern school is represented. There are quite a number of Dutch and Flemish pictures, metal works, antique casts, carvings and forty fine American works. These will make an ex- hibition which will add very materially to the attractiveness of the museum. HALSEY C. IVES, in speaking last evening to a POST- DISPATCH 2 in regard to the proposed addition, ald: The museum really never was better supplied with fine works of art than at present. The interest jn it is growing constantly, and I have strong hopes that the completion of the museum as originally deelgned is not to be deferred for muny years. We have at present 296 scholars in our art class. The night class is very weil patronized. It is not known by many that there is a large and growing class of art students among the intelligent working people. Many of the mem- bers of this class are showing alovefor art, which is as surprising as it is gratifying. The night class is composed of machinists, pattern-makers und other trudes- men who und that it is most conducive to tnelr advancement to study descriptive geometry. You would be surprised to see the number of workingmen who visit the museum on Sunday, when admittance is free. I bave been in the habitof meeting classes of fifty and sixty of them and giving class lectures on different objects, they hav- ing the privilege at any time of interrupting me to ask questions. Looking back for the past ten or twelve years, lcan note quite a number of men who have since risen to responsible positions, mainly owing to the proficiency they attained in their busi- ness through an eurly study of art. These men are now among the best friends of the museum, and as the numberof such is con- stantly increasing the prospects for the future of the museum are very bright, indeed.

While No Larger Than a Man's Hand It 16 Predicted That a Crisis Must Soon Come. By Telegraph to the Post-DIsPpaTcit. NEW YorK, July 13.—Some of the leading Wall street bankers expressed themselves to-day as gravely apprehensive of an early outbreak of war in Europe, and anxiously discussed its effect on American markets. The feeling was heightened by the receipt from Boston of au“ dis- patch through Kidder, Peabouy & Co. advising the purchasé of certain stocks. A leading banker expresses the opinion that if war does come it will be begun by France against Germany. Frence will be supported by Russia and England will probably be drawn in and back up Germany. The fact thar the Bank of nce as pn a — buyer of gold — and now holds some $80,000,000 of it, is regarded as significant among financiers in view of the European complications which threaten the peace of the old world. Wall street regards with 32 the ee of a European war, believing it will boom business im- mensely. Do you wear glasses?

But he should not be protected from the authorities of Mississippi in any State of the Union. If the Governors of the States will not turn over offenders under the law against prize-fighting on requisitions to the au- thorities of other States the law is prac- tically useless. It is an easy matter to fight in one State near the border of another, and then crossing the State line avoid punishment for the offense under such a ruling. — . — ACTING MAYOR WALBRIDGE has shown 80 muoh good sense in other matters that itis hard to understand why he has ob- structed the progress of the cable im- provement on Fourth street. His order to stop the work was issued on an ex parte statement which was unfair and certainly open to doubt, Buteven if the grounds 258 — all were 5 t . r 7 * Orta } ua * * =| ete 5 te Wed $) ‘ broke away from it and took up the fight of the masses against the classes on the question of abolishing tax-fed monopolies, he made the singular mistake of placing the Democratic campaign under the con- trol of men more than suspected of a close business connection with the other side. The Democratic organization was offi- cered for the contest by avowed opponents of his tariff policy—by Barnum, Bor. GORMAN and other millionaires who are more interested in continuing the ascend- ency ot the American Plutocracy than in the success of Democracy. The conse- quence was that he was beaten—beaten in his own State, in the same election that gave a large plurality to a Democratic candidate for Governor. That he was beaten by plutocratic connivance and contrivance and with plutocratic means and methods isas plain as the figures of the New York election returns. If not in New York, where else can the Democratic party fight with any heart or hope under a plutocratic organization? Its aspirations are crushed and its ener- gies paralyzed everywhere under such a regime. It any man doubts let him look at the helpless, lifeless spectacle of as- phyxzia which the Democratic party pre- sents in the alleged fight for four new States now coming into the Union. On the Republican side we see alert zeal and en- by. CT getic activity; on the Democratic, noth- mut studied in Awerican Sunday-Scnool Union looks like a direct attack on the circulation of Brother SHEPARD’s newspaper. But thén Brother SHEPARD has been scooping the Union in scriptural truth and must expect reprisal. THERE is talk of establishing in Chicago a special department of police, with trained dogs for assistants, for the purpose of search - ing for persons lost in the dense forests which now skirt the principal thoroughfares. As THE Canadian extradition law does not cover prize fighting it is to be hoped that SULLIVAN will reach the Dominion in safety. THERE is said to be a big boom in the saloon business of Kansas City since the Johnstown fund was distributed at home. CHICAGOANS are utilizing the odor of their river now as a fertilizer. —— — A Reformed Fourth of Joly. From the Springfield (Mass.) Republican.

Tre city of Port-au-Prince, which lies close to the beautiful Bay of Gonaives, and gradually ascends from the coast towards the east, had at that time a population of about twenty-four thousand inhabitants, and was protected on the northeastern side by Fort Alexander or ‘‘National,’’ and on the southwest by Fort Bizothon, besides about a dozen smaller works on the northern approaches to the city. There was only one ironclad gun- poat stationed in the harbor, La Terreur, armed with 8 and 10-inch Parrot guns, and commanded by an American, Capt. Hall. The other two gunboats of Sainave’s flotilla had been captured by his enemies in the Bay of Gonaives. The available forces of Salnave consisted of about fifteen hundred men and twelve pieces of artillery, chiefly field guns, and of these about two hundred men, with two pieces, held an advanced position at the quay (west side) todefend. the landing place, the Bureau du Port and Douane (custom-hoguse), while the remainder were posted at the National Palace and in the intrenchments. A large amount of ammunition was stored in the Palace, where SALNAVE AND Els STAFF had their headquarters. Meanwhile the friends of Saget had con- ceived the bold plan of a coup de main by land and water against Port-au-Prince, and to accomplish this end they could dispose of 1,200 ‘‘selected’’ men, to be conveyed in three armed steamers, the Mont Organise, the Petion and Rouillone, besides a force of 500 men and one piece of artillery, under the command of St. Elia Covin, who were expected to operate from the land side. served as subordinate commanders, and about the same number were with Salnave. On December 16, 1869, Saget established his headquarters at 1 Arcahay, a seaportontbe western coast of Haytif about thirty miles from Port-au-Prince. In the afternoon of the nextday the expedi- tion left l’Arcahay and on the 18th, towards 3 o clock in the morning, Admiral Leon Lejoie, with the three vessels mentioned, entered un- observed the harbor of*the capital. The force of the Petion and Roullione were under the direct command of Gens. Brice and Bois- rund Canal, those of the Mont Organise under Gen. Paiaimon Aignon. Deep silence prevailed when the three ves- seis approached the wharf of the city and it was very natural that the attacking forces were well aware of the audacity of their en- terprise, which, if unsuccessful, would have certainly brought imprisonment or death to many of them. But they were well up to their perilous task. The Mont Organise, the oe wi of Admiral Lejoie, immediately at- tacke THE TERREUR by opening fire on her, and so great was the surprise and consternation of the crew that they surrendered the vessel without offering any resistance. Meanwhile the Rouil- lone and Petion approached the wharf. Their troops, led by Gens. Brice and Boisrand Canal, quickly disembarked undthrew themselves upon the Bureau du Port. Here they were received by the fire from two pieces of artillery, but at the same Loment the Petion opened with canister against therm and forced them to withdraw. ine Bureau du Port and the Douane were tuken and occupied by detachments. Gen. rice advanced against Salnave’s intrenched position, whileGen. Boisrand Canal turned ugainst those on the northwestern side. In less than two hours Brice succeeded in taking the forts of La Croix and Baselais and threat- ening those of Enveillard and Alexander. Gen. Oculus Proux, with another column, ad- vanced towards the center ofthe city and by the streets leading to the palace. During the day the struggle extended over almost every street of the city, and although Salnave fought bravely the ‘*Revolutionists’’ gained ground from hour to hour, inclosing Salnave’s forces into the narrow circle of the intrenchments constructed hastily in front andon both flanks of the National Palace. lt was during one of these assaults and the retreat of Salnave’s forces that, as it was al- leged, on the instigation of the latter, a num ber of prisoners continec in the State Prison were assassinated, among them an elder brother of the Hippolyte who is now at the head of the movement against Legitime. It Was about II o’clock in the os when the diplomatic representatives o En gland, France and the United States made an Hort to convince Salnave of his precarious position and actually offered him their pro- tection in case he should retire from the con- test and leave the city; but Salnave was too much aman of courage and rather preferred to ght to the end than to save himself per- sonally and deliver his faithful friends into the hands of his enemies. The efforts of the diplomatic trio — „ failed and the struggle went on until the darkness of night putanendtoit. At midnight, however, Sal- have’s guns opened upon the quarters held by his enemies and set several HOUSES ON FIRE. Thenext morning fighting began again, and it became doubtful whether the Revolutioniste Would carry the intrenced position around the palace except by great sacrifices. They there- fore came to the conclusion that it would be much more simple to snell the tyrant out than ‘odrive him out by assanit. To this end one of the vessels, the Mont Organise, opened fire aigainet the palace, and soon after the guns of the Terreur threw their shells with such effect that one of them broke through Salnave’s toom and struck the ammunition stored in the palace. A terrible explosion followed, seRing the whole bufteing on fire aud killing aud wounding several hundred of Sainave's oficers and men. Encouraged by this awful spectacle and the Conlusion created by it among the troops in the intrenchments, the assailants now began ‘gain to advance and threatened to outflank the whole line of defense and even to cut off tue retreat of its defenders. The fatal hour of ‘alnave had come.

Missage now master of the situa- the business of proscrip- persecution and reconstruction On the 22d of December the Pro- visional President’’ issued a decree, of which articie 1 declared er Salnave an outlaw and awarded a prize of $5,000 for his capture and ig peg? article 2 declared Vil Lubin (who held Fort Bizoton) and twenty-eight others _‘outlawe,’’ articie 8 called upon all citizens to go for them’’ and article 4 gave notice to all those friends of Salnave not named in the preceding articles to surrender and deliver their arms within forty-eight hours, otherwise they would aiso be considered outlaws and be treated accordingly. The decree was sizned by Missage Saget, and tor the President by F. Rameau, Secretary of State, Finance, Com- merce, etc. When, therefore, those outlawed from the capital, with Salnave at their head, arrived atthe frontier line of the Dominican Republic they were, onthe 8th of Jabuary, 1870, met by an armed force of Jose Maria Ca- bral, a Dominican, who was evidently in pos- session of the decree relative to the prize of $5,000 and in sympathy with the suecesstul cow represented by Saget and Domingue. 6 compelled the unfortunate refugees to surrender and immediately delivered them to the ‘‘revolutionary tribunals’ that had been **decreed’’ by Saget on the Zlst of December, aday after hig instailation. These tribunals were, in fact, nothing but drum head courts martial. SALNAVE WAS SHOT —after the trial lasting three hours—on Jan- uary 18, 1870, at Port-au-Prince, in front of the ruined 2 At about the same time twenty - three of his companions, mostly generals, were shot at La Croixdes Bouquets, northeast of Port-au-Prince. Vil Lubin, the defender of Fort Bizoton, was caught at Anse-de-Pitre, on the southern coast of the peninsula, Depart- ment of the South, brought to Jacmel and shot. The life of Telemaque was spared, prob- ably on account of his timely surrender of Fort Alexander. On February 1 the ‘‘Revolutionury Tri- bunal’’ of Port-au-Prince issued an Act of Accusation’’ against seventy persons, among them nineteen generals of division, five gen- erais of brigade, thirteen adjutant-generais, colonels and other officers, two marines and fifteen women, whose profession is given as laundry women, venders and merchants. Only two of the whole list could not be selzed, but all the others were, in all probability, shot or imprisoned at hard labor for life, as they were accused of having been either prin- cipals in the ‘‘great crime’’ or accomplices of Sainave, and in particular of ‘‘attempt to overthrow the Constitution, of treason, murder, incendiarism, devastation, massacre and pillage,’’ and therefore liable to be punished by articles A, etc,, of the Penal Code, e., by death or imprisonment for life. So proscription, incarceration and shooting went on, and many more would have been thrown into prison or shot if they had not found protection under the American flag, at the residence of the United States Minister, Basset, who, although surrounded by an ex- cited and revengeful populace, with a firm- ness and courage rarely shown and hardly surpassed even by E. B. Washburn dur- ing the days of the Paris Commune, braved all threats aud dangers and tor many days kept the unfortunate refugees un- der his shelter and care. Finally, on Feb- ruary 15, Saget seemed to. have become tired of shooting and issued a decree commutin the death sentence of ve generals, one chie of battali@n and three women to imprison- ment at HARD LABOR FOR LIFE. I have stated these terrible and indisputable facts not for the purpose of accusing the peo- ple of Hayti, but of showing what a revolu- tion and a change of rulers in that unfortunate country means, and how littie is known and om ca io ef . 2 r * 0 fac . an N eee eee “es * bn su: are I 2 7 5 * ’ 8 — * * * only thirty ö — Ag and of nort and south of the river Antivonete. | t are, there- fore, only two days’ march from the doors of tal, the Haytlan Paris, w po tion has always been most unreliable, and seems to be at „y in a bigh state of ter- mentation. It is also reported that Logitime bas withdrawn his flotillafram the western coast into the inner Bay of Gonatve for the pu of defense, and that he himseif had taken refuge in one of the forts near Port-au- Prince, probably in Fort Bizothon, southwest of the city, on the coast, where he is person- Uy safe, and where, in case of emergency, e could find his way to Jamaica. As Hippolyte has now only two vessels at his disposal—the Merkedes and the Carondelet —an attack on the city by land and water, as in 1869, is out of the question unless the crews of Legitime’s flotilla should find it convenient to take side with the man of the North, which would bring matters at once to an end, but is hardly to be expected. The only means, then, by which Hyppolite could turn the scale in his favor would be by forcing his way from L’Arceahaye or Mire Calais to La Croise de Bouquets and the heights commanding the city from the east, assisted by a revolt in the city itself. This would make bim master of the situation, notwithstanding the hostile flotilla. Whatevor may be the result of this present crisis, it would be well for the United States to be ‘‘on hand’’ before England and France, and even Germany, have taken time by the forelock;and in this respect it may be con- sidered an auspicious omen that Fred Doug- las, who gained a good practical knowledge of the affairs of Haytiand Santo Domingo with the American Commission in 1870, has been selected to represent Uncle Sam in the regions of ‘‘brotherly love. If he can get hold of Mole St. Nicholas he wlll certainly do as much as any Commission could have done. FRANZ SIGEL,. LINCOLN’S LAST NIGHT. A Letter Which All Americans Will Read With Interest and Emotion. From the New York Independent. In 1865 a sixteen-page letter, written that year by Miss Harris, who was in the theater box withthe Lincoln party when the Presi- dent was shot, was given me bya friend who had just received it from Mrs. Stowe. Of this letter Mrs. Stowe remarked that under the cir cumstances, it would one day be regarded as historically valuable and of national interest, At all events in it intelligent and reliable tes- timony is borne to the domestic virtues of one of the gentlest, wisest and best of men. It is sad to know that other tragic events followed the party, for Miss Harris, who aft- erward married her stepbrother, Maj. Ruth- bone, was killed by him in Germany,and Rath- bone, | believe, is at present the inmate of a lunatic asvlum. Although not written for publication, and touching toward the end on other matters after the lapse of four and twenty years, i 3 to give the whole letter in its integ- rity: WASHINGTON, April 29. Mr DraR M-——: I was very glad to hear from you again; your letter proving that in all the events of your matronly life our old friendship is not forgotten. ‘*You may well say that we have been pass- ne through scenes sad indeed. That terrible Friday night is to Me yet almost like sume dreadful vision. I bave been very intimate with Mrs. Lincoln and the family ever since our mutual residence in Washington, which began at the same time, and we have been con- stantly in the habit of driving and going to the opera and theater together. It was the only amusement, with the exception of re- ceiving at their own house, in which the Pres- identand Mrs. Lincoln were permitted, ac- cording to custom, to indulge, and to escape from the crowds who constantly thronged to see them wore than from sg decided taste forsuch things. They were in the habit of golng very olten to hear Forrest, Booth, Hackett, and such actors when playing in Washington. ‘*Tne night before the murder was thet of the general illumination here, and they drove all through the streets to see it;a leas ctélcu- lating Villain might have taken that oppor- tunity for his crime or the night before, when was done, atleast so far, by the American people and Government towards one of their siater republics, although not further distant from the coast of Florida than New York is from Charleston, S. C. When, after the lapse of a year, I visited Port-au-Prince in company with the American Commission sent by President Grant to the republics of Santo Domingo and Hayti, the Haytien people were pretty well ‘‘pacified,’’ butalarge part of the capital lay in ashes, and gold was at 400. Inthe neighboring Re- public of Santo Domingo peace and quiet ex- isted everywhere except in a corner of the northwestern frontier, where Cabral, who had betrayed Salnave, stood with a promiscuous crowd of about twelve hundred men, making war in guerilla fashion against his own coun- try— Santo Domingo— assisted by Haytien men and money. Assumingtiy he fought against Raez, the then President of Santo Domingo, but actually he fought for Hayti against Santo Domingo. It is almost ineredible that so little was known in Washington at that time about the true state of allairs in the two Republics of the Island of Hayti. Even Senator Sumner was totally at sea in regard to the political, social and military conditions of these two coun- tries—so near and yet sofar! In a private after my return, be said that 15,000 ‘‘Dominicans’’ were srrayed under Cabral against Baez, while the whole population of Santo Domingo was only scattered over 18,000 En- miles, and in fact Cabral had not more than 1,200 Dominicans and Haytians, as stated before.

He spoke from the center window of the executive mansion. I had been invited to pase the evening there, and stood at the window of an ad- joining room with Mrs. Lincoln, watching the crowd below as they listened and cheered. Ot course, Booth was there, watching his chance. I wonder that he did not choose that occasion, but probably he knew a better op- portunity would be offered. After the speech was over we went to Mr. Lincoln’s room; he was ving on the sofa, quite exhausted, but he talked of the events of the past fortnight, of his visit to Richmond, of the enthusiasm everywhere felt through the country, and Mrs. Lincoln declared the past few days to bave been the happiest of ber life. Their prospects, indeed, seemed fair—peace dawning upon our land, and four years of happy and honored rule before one of the entiest, best and loveliest menlever knew. never saw him out of temper—the kindest husband, the tenderest father, the truest friend, as well as the wisest statesman. Our Beloved President’—when I think that I shall never again stand in his genial presence, that I have lost his friendship so tried and true, I feel like putting on the robe of mourning which the country wears. „My own dear father was deeply attached to Mr. Lincoln: they thoroughly sympathized in many things, and Mr. Lincoln, perhaps be- ing able to discern in him an honest, unselfish nature, in that akin to his own, was wont with him to throw off the restraint of the poli- tlelan and talk over things as with an old friend. The shock has been a terrible one to him; he feels his death to be a deep personal af- fliction. . Lou are right in supposing the Maj. Rath- bone who was with us to bethe ‘Henry’ you knew ip Albany. We four composed the party that evening. They drove to our door in the gayest spirts, chatting on the way—and the president was received with the greatest enthusiasm, They say we were watched by the assas- sins; aye, as we alighted from the carriage. Ob, how could any one be so cruel as to strike that dear, kind, honest face’ And when I think of that fend barring himself in alone with us, my blood runs cold. My dress is sat- urated with biocod; my hands aud face were covered. You may imagine what a scene, and so all through that dreadful night, when we stood by that dying bed. Poor Mrs. Lincoln was, and is, almost crazy. „Henry narrowly escaped with his life. The knife was struck at bis heart with all the force of a practiced and powerful arm; he fortunately parried the blow and received a wound in his arm, extending along the bone from the elbow nearly to the shoulder. He concealed it for some time, but was finally car - ried home in a swoon, the loss of blood had been so great from an artery and veins sey- ered. He is now getting quite well, but cannot yet use bis arm. J hope you will pardon me this dreadfully long letter. I did not realize how much I was writing.

Yetit is so good a school, and so cheap, that young white men and women are attracted to it from all over the State, and the dreadful things which were promised when this coeducation of the races began have never materialized. So much to give a hint of the character of the little college whose unique commencement day happened on June 18. — gs East Kentucky Editor and School Commissioner. The people began to come before I got up in the morning, and by 8 o’clock were streaming along allthe converging roads and concen- trating upon the grove-shaded campus. These early arrivais were MOSTLY ON HORSEBACK— companies of young chaps, swearing and whooping whenever they felt like it; young men more sober in appearance (and in fact) because their sweethearts sat behind them, on u folded blanket and holding onto the waist of the gallant cavaliers;: scores of women and girls of every age, riding singly, their Tight colored muslin P — from the splashing mud b long riding skirts of-ruaty waterproof stuff, and their faces hidden in capacious sun bon- nets, or else capped by astonishing head-gear. Interspersed among the equestrians were wheelea vehicles of every sort—old town om- nibuses; stylish rigs of visitors from the blue rass towns; antique buggies and carryalis, arm carts and wagons, bome-patched if not home-made. These wagons had nocross- seats, but instead would be set full of splint-bot- tom chairs. I saw one steer harnessed, horse- fashion, intoaruce cart, but it did not need such extravagances to make any of the fixtures irresistibly. comic, Yet one could plainly see that thesefolk were doing their best to be genteel and to worship at the shrines of etiquette and fashion according to the light they had.

The exercises IN THE TABERNACLE were of the familiar stamp, and would fur- nish, by their peculiarities, material fora long letter; but to me the most interesting part was the array of native people who filled the seats to overflowing and paid earnest at- tention. These were to all intents and purposes the same as those that came over these hills and settied (only afew miles away) with Daniel Boone, and they ask only the schooling in which they seem now so much interested to develop such strength as the Clays, the Blackburns, and other Kentuckians, after they had such advantages in the lower country. Tiriog of it after two or three hours, I stole out into the sunshine to findamuch more lively scene under the great oaks. Three or four bootbs for the use of eatables, mild drinkables and sweetmeats, had been erected and were now surrounded by scores of customers of all colors, sexes and sizes, laughing, singing and howd’ying, munching ginger bread and candy, and treat- ing one another to lemonade and peanuts in true holiday style. Here and there family gen s bad spread on the round the uncheon they had brought from home, add - ing to the homely fare some luxury bought at the booth. The splint-bottomed chairs were brought from the wacons and given to old ladies who sat conténtedly and smoked their pipes while the gingham-gowned daughters did the work. A crowd of men in the road outside the campus attracted my attention and I was just in time to see A FIGHT STOPPED by a deputy sheriff, of which forty or fifty had been specially sworn in the occasion, A white and colored lad were in fierce alterea- tion.

Scores of men, PISTOL IN HAND, stood by, and one fellow ‘‘turned loose’’ a few careless shots and yelled ‘‘gill them all!“ It was supposed he meant the ‘‘niggers,’’ yet every one Knew that this was not a race squabbie atall, but an old quarrel between two fellows from the same town over a horse trade, which had been reopened here. It is known that more than once tough characters have made a regular appointment with their feuded enemies to meet them at this com- meneement and settle the row viet armis. In this case the darkey had drawn his pistol, but was persuaded to put it away and was leaving the spot, whenthe white boy, who unarmed borrowed a revolver, ran after the negro and shot bim in the back, after which the en- gagement became general, as war reports say, oblivious of the fact that several hundred persons were standing close by and that the most moral and peace-loving orations and 1 7 were going on just the other side of a alf-inch board wall. rive minutes after the arrest the orowd had dispersed, the booth trade and picnicking Went on and a lot of us ate a jolly little lunch in aschool house, while the surgeon attended to the knee-wounded mun who lay stretched underthe window outside, his head in hig ‘*girl's’’ lap and his arteries emptying their blood on the matted oak leaves.

It was the shrill shriek that hag passed into history, and often it would be accented by a pistol fusillade—bali cartridge let goin almost any direction. A large number of visitors, however, had come by rail, divided into two classes by the direction. Those from the North were from towns, and mainly from one of the large blue grass centers formerly distin- guished by its Ku Klux performances; and I shouldn’t wonder if a | had a livelier time than did wein the south-bound train, which penetrated the mountains. It was not long after starting before the fun began. Everybody was more or less wild with tanglefoot and anxious to make a noise. Crack! went a pistol shot somewhere forward. Cr-r-r-ack! rattled a whole volley from the nextcar. Bang! answered a big gun in the coach behind us. A burly fellow took his arm from his girl’s waist, drew out of his trousers pocket a heavy 1 that carried a halt - ounce ball, and, reaching across his lady- love’s lap, EMPTIED THE PISTOL with rattling rapidity out of the window. Across the aisle a boy not more then 16 pro- duced a still longer and bigger pistol, and at- tempted to do the same, butthe girl objected and a struggle ensued for the possession of the cocked and loaded weapon, which, thanks to that Providence which watches over fools and ‘‘fulls,’’ did not go off. By thistime nearly every young man in the car had a revolver in his hand or sticking half out of his pocket; and just at this juncture we ran into a tunnel. From half the men on each plat- form, from half the windows in each car, burst the noise and flame of these heavy guns, pulled as fast as fingers could work. The tun- nel was only a few inches off--bullets were more like to glance back than not. The car was lighted only by flashes of powder, and the shooters yelled like demons, while the shrill laughter of many a woman’s voice struck through the noise in sharp staccato. It was a lively experience, and it only ended as the train gradually emptied itself with parting salvos of pocket artillery and fare- well yelle of riotous mirth. It is not worth while to mention names or specify localities; but neither really matters, for just such scenes are enacted whenever a crowd of Eastern Kentuckians, patrician or plebéian,get — 2 See it be a political Canvass or a coliege commencement. RNEST INGERSOLL. Brilliant Equestrian Spectacle. All Dresden has been going very nearly mad over the reiter-fest, or equestrian perform- ance, which bad been devised by the officers of the Saxon Army as their particular form of felicitation to the King on the occasion. On the tooth anniversary of the birth of the house of Wettin as the ruling dynasty of what is now the Kingdom of Saxony, Kursachsen took a considerable share in the liberation of Vienna from Kara Mustapha and his besicging hordes of Turks, and the incidents of that siege, with all its motley Wallenstein’s r of Dugald Dalgetties from every state in Germany, were, says the London Times correspondent, selected, as illustrating one of the most meritorious pages in Saxon bis- tory. About five hundred officers, all mounted, and richly dressed and accoutered after the fashion of the time, streamed into the arena in successive groups or quadrilies ot Tartars, Poles and German troops of various contingents, and marvellous were the feats of graceful horsemanship ed to the sound of breathing music, though in this respect the Tarters, — sonified by some of the most daring riders in King Albert’s army corps, easily bore away the paim with their circus-like evolutions, re- minding one of a Cossack digitovka, John Sobieski, too, and Duke Charies of Lorraine, and the Klector George III. of Saxony and a host of magnates and mighty ca s, includ- ing Feldzeugmeieter Count Lest , with a Low- land Scotch accent still sticking to his tongue in that polyglot camp at Vienna, all defiled before us in gorgeous and varied array, elicit- ing cious bows and achaouetenenn yom the King and the Queen.

EER PARK, Ind., July 13. —The President has been storm-bound ali day, but this evening the sunt burst through the clouds Before disap- pearing behind the mountain tops, and „ With baby McKee sitting in front with the driver the ladies of the presidential party started for a drive to Oakland. A later Senator Davis President, Secretary Windom, Private Secretary Halfora and Steve Elkins and followed in their wake. The day has been gloomy and depressing. The Harrison hoodoo seemed to brood over the park. Rain fell steadily almost all day long and nobody ventured forth from the Presi- dent’s cottage. During a short interval in the rainfall this morning, Senator Davis and Secretary Windom walked down and paid the President a short visit. They found him holding Baby McKeg in his arms, and en- deavoling to quiet that embryotic statesman’s protest against the weather, preventing him from journeying across the lawn to his striped tent—his special pride and joy. The gentie- men chatted together a few moments and then retired to the President’s study. WILL STAY AT THE PARK. The President has about determined that he willnot return to Washington next week. Fourteen hours a week on the rail he does not propose to spend. His trip to this place was uncomfortable notwithstanding the efforts of the railroad people and he is not likely soon to forget the heat and dust. Private Secretary Halford said to the Post- DISPATCH correspondent this morning that he would do most of the running between Deer Park and Washington, and Secretary Windom added that the members of the Cabinet would prefer coming to this place to forcing the President toreturn to Washington. It is Mr. Halford’s opinion that the President will go to town about once in three or four weeks. The President is greatly in need of rest. He looks worn and thin and bis face wears a President Harrison. minutes picked up the few deeper pallor than at any time since his inauguration. He proposes, how ever, to get right down to work and on Monday he will take up the papers in anumber of cases he bas before him, and when Secretary Halford returns to Washing- ton on Tuesday he will probably carry a batch of removals and appointments. Mr. Halford told PostT- DISPATCH correspondent to-day that the President had ander consideration a large number of Department of Justice appoint- ments and hoped to clear them up in a week, A COLD WELCOME IN WAITING. The office-seeker will find a cold welcome awaiting him here. If he comes well dis- guised he can get in at the hotel, but the cot- tage will be found as impregnable as the fortress of Givraitar. A few office - seekers are bound to get through the lines. They will come in special cars and this variety can not be snub- bed. The President has already issued a. warning, that no delegaticns will be received, therefore none need apply. A large contingent of Washington ofiicial society will arrive next week fol- lowing the transfer of the Capi- tal Court to this place. Among the arrivals to-day were Chief of the Raliway Mail Service Nic Bell, W. L. Harris, P. Lee Phillips, Henry C. Adams of Washington, J. F. Young and wife, Wm. Harrison, the Misses Wood, H. M. Brune of Philadelphia, Frank Frick, Mrs. Wm. Donnell, Dr. A. Dulin, T. J. Lamotte of Baitimore, Henry H. Hill of San Francisco and Robert P. Porter. FRAUD EXPOSED, The Buffalo, N.

Developments are anxiously awaited bythe citizens interested in public affairs. In no iocality in North Dakota is there such intense opposition to ex-Gov. Ordway for United States Senator | as at Grand Forks. He is looked upon as an invader and the farmers of North Dakota will consider the matter a long time before they select him to represent them at Washington. Gilbert A. Pearce is looked upon with much favor, and nota little indignation has been heard here during the last few days over the couplin of his name with that of Ordway for the Sen- ate almost. The people here will prefer any one a resident of Dakota iu preference to Ordway. Gen. Harrison Allen has some sup: port for Governor, but it is very slight, and it a Fargo man must have that nonor Smith Stiliwell would get more support than Allen. Doubtiess Grand Forks would like to have the capitol and it would be proper for her to yield every State office, if necessary, to secure that prize. A Writ Refused, By Telegraph to the POsT-DISPATCH. Sr. PAUL, Minn., July 13,—Richard M. War- ner applied to the Supreme Court, yesterday, for a writ of habeas corpus in the ease of Clara Blatz, indicted for the murder of John Doherty, in this city, last winter. The application was based on the ground that Judge Kelly summarily dismissed the jury without inquiring whether there was any pros- pect of their reaching an agreement und thus unwarrantably interfered with the delibera- tions of the jury to the.injury of the defendant, who believes she would have been acquitted ifthe jury had not been so dismissed. lt was further contended that her life having once been in jeopardy she should not be aguin placed in that position. After a short delib- cration the court denied the writ, on the ground that it was not the proper method to roceed to obtain a review of the acts of the istfict Court. Finally J ailed.

Francis Cannot Create a Vacancy for the Purpose of Filling It. By Telegraph to the Posr-Drer aten. KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 18.—James F. Keedy was appointed Coal Oil Inspector for Kansas City for the ‘two years beginning June 18, 1885, but held office until September 28, 1888, when Gov. Morehouse ap- pointed Col. George Belt for two years, which would make histerm end September 28, 1890. Gov. Francis, by advice of the Attorney-Gen- eral, appointed William Mu. Stonestreet to succeed Belt, on the ground that Belt could onlv have been 1 to fill out the une - pired term of Keedy, which would have expired June 18, 1889. Reit Instituted quo, war- ranto proceedinas. Judge Held in the Cir- cult Court to-day decided thatas Belt was appointed for two years and commissioned for two years he could not be removed ex- cept for cause. In speaking ofthe statute governing this case the Judge said: Atter mature consideration of the statute, I feel convinced that its meuning as to the tenure of once of exch incumbent therein is rook yen | expressed in the language thereof, and that it is so entirely free from ambiguity as to forbid my resorting to rules of construction or considering the policy or impolicy, the wisdom or unwisdom thereof in arriving at its true meaning. By its terms each inspector shall hold his office for two years from the date of his appoint- ment and until his successor is duly appointed and oaquablified. This can buf mean that each Inspector who is not ap- pointed to fill a vaean daused by 1 resignation or other cause shall hold the office for aterm of two years absolutely and for such further contingent and _ defeasi- ble term thereafter as might occur before his successor was duly appointed and qualified. It is not in the power of the Gov- ernor to remove the relator (Belt) from office simply for the purpose of creating a vacancy that he might appoint another to fill such office, if such was his intention.’’ — —— - LILY HAS SAILED. The Very Full Particulurs of Langtry’s De- parture for Europe. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatcu. NEW YORK, July 13.—Among tue distin- guished persons on the Servia, which sailed yesterday for Liverpool, was Mrs. Lily Langtry. A carriage drove up to the plier early yesterday morning and Mr. Gebhardt and Mrs. Langtry stepped out. Soon after they had boarded the steamer they were joined by another wan, and the three stood talking until the steamer was ready to sail, when the two men came ashore. Mrs. Langtry has been sick forsome time at her cottage in Long Branch, it being reported that she was suffering from throat and nose troubles. On the night of July 4 the symptome became so alarming that a servant was dispatched for Dr. Pemberton. She seems, however,to have recovered since then and her intention of go- ing abroad, whice she was reported to have klven upon account of illness, was recon- sidered and her desire carried out. She left Long Branch from the North Long Branch Station on the Central road of New Jersey at 10:30 Thursday fore- noon. She was accompanied by Mr. Gebhardt and the same gentleman that was with him when sbe sailed and a little girl of 4 or 5 vears. The man said Mrs. Langtry had given up the place and would not return. Mrs. Lang- try was evidently in good spirits, said the superintendent of the dock when speaking of ner appearance yesterday, ‘‘but I noticed that she did not look very well. Her skin was fair, but she looked a [little pale, as though she had undergone a severe fit of sickness. I was aboard the vessel and had a short conver- sation with her in regard to her state-room.’’ SUING A COKPSE, Something Unique, Even for a Chicago Court of Justice, By Telegraph to the Post-DISPATCH. CHICAGO, III., July 13,—John Soderberg, a shoe merchant, in a burst of Fourth of July patriotism, accidentally shot 1 Mrs. Bick, who lived across the _ street. The wound was not a dangerous one, but the idea of 9 shot a woman preyed upon Soderberg's mind, and, a few days later, while at her bedside assuring her that the shooting was unintentional, he drew a revol- ver and put an end to his own life. Now it seems that even his bones are not to be allowed to rest in peace. The funeral has not yet been held, but a suit was to-day begun against Sodenberg for $,00@damages for the shoot. ing. The Sheriff will have some difficulty summoning Sonerberg to defend the suit, for he has gone beyond the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court, where the suit 1s brought. Bringing suit againsta dead man is a very unusual proceeding, but the attorneys for the plaintiffs say that under the circumstances the proceeding is the rigut one. They propose later to have Sonerberg's death suggested on the record, and ask that his administrator or executor be made defendant in his stead. ENGLISH INVESTOus. They Are After a Patent Medicine Concern in Rochester. By Telegraph to the PosT-DISPATCH, ROCHESTER, N.

Only a few months ago the big brewery deal was in progress and its development atrracted attention, not only in this city, but all over the country. The latest project is, noth- ing less than the rumored sale of a proprie- tury medicine and yeast business here to a syndicate of English capitalists. It is learned on good anthority that the Englishmen who wish to purchase have the means, and that it will be only « matter of a week before a trans- fer is completed.

By Telegraph to the Post-DispatTon. KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 18.— Mrs. Isaac Rob- inson, the wife of Contiactor Robinson, wat found by her husband on his return last evening totbeir rooms inthe Hotel Victoria, to be bound to the bed-post and nearly insensible. Upon fully re- covering her senses Mrs, Robinson said that while she was engaged in packing her trunks for a trip which she is soon to take, two persons entered her room, and while one threw a bed-spread over her head another bound and gagged her. The towel that was tied across her mouth, she says, was saturated with chloroform. Both of the persons were in men’s dress, but she is confident that one was a woman. oprietor Scott examined the ropes with which Mrs. Robinson claims to have been tied, and found that the part that held the hands wasina slip noose, and the other end was not securely tied to the bed. The towel with which the lady claims to have been chloroformed was examined and not a trace ofthe drug was found. The gas was turned on full, yet unlighted, sug- gesting self destruction by asphyxiation. All the windows were open, but the curtains down. Children were playing in the hallway all afternoon, and the occupants of the rooms on either side of 213, Mrs. Robinson's, saw no one enter Mrs. Kobinson’s room and beard no struggle.

Correspondence of SUNDAY Post-D1spartcn. . ARIS, July 3,—Be- fore these lines have reached their destination the. telegraph will have sent you Informa- tion of the death of Mme. Carlotta Patti. The..once brilliant and fam- ~~ ous concert-singer is slowly dying g from the effects of un internal cancer. 55 \ ~ She has been ill for months past, but the fatal nature of her malady only disclosed itself afew weeks ago. Shesang atthe clos- ing reception of the series of Friday 2 5 85 afternoon musicales glyen during the past season by Mrs. Walden Pell, and it was declared by competent critics who were present that never in her later years had she sung so superbly. It is the song of the swan,’’ remarked one of her admirers who Was among the audience, The sparkling voice that use to glide so easily through the intricate mazes of florid Italian song will never again be heard in public. Of late years she had devoted herself to teaching and was much beloved by her pupils. Sue gave very brilliant musicales in her pretty home on the Rue Pierre Chav- ron, and was always prominent and popular inthe musical circlesof Paris. Had it not been for the terrible accident which she underwent in her childhood, and which caused an incurable dislocation of the hip joint and consequent lameness, she would probably have rivaled her sister Adelina on the operatic boards. Long years ago she ful- filled a brief operatic engagement in New York, appearing as the Queen of the Night in the ‘‘Magic Flute,’’ and afterwards as Elvira in 1 Puritani,’’ but her lameness produced 80 painful an effect on the public that the experiment was never re- peated, She did best in the first-named char- acter, as she sang seated in a gilded chariot and did not attempt to walk, but in ‘‘I Puri- tani’’ the impression produced, despite her exquisite vocalization, was anything but agreeable. THE LEGEND concerning her lameness declares that it was caused by her mother, once herself a famous prima donna, who was afflicted with a very violent temper, and who, having unfortu- nately entered into an altercation with her little girl at the top of a flight of stairs, gave the chiida push that precipitated ker to the bot- tow of the staircase, and so brought about the life-long infirmity of her daughter. Mme. Carlotta Patti was married several years ago to M. Munck, the well-known violoncellist. Two yeurs ago ale took place in the apart- ment-house on the Rue Pierre Chavron in which M. Munck and his talented wife resided. They were forced to make their escape in the middle of the night, the gentleman clutching his violoncello firmly in one hand, while with the other arm he supported his terrined and hall-fainting wife. Never mind, Car- lotta, be remarked, soothingly, as they gained a place of safety, ‘‘I have you safe and my Violoncello, and the rest of our things can be repiaced.’’ Fortunately the fire was ex- tinguiseu before much damage was done to their possessions, Dut the terror and ex- posure seein to have dealt the constitution of Mme. Carlotta Patti a fatal shock, as she bas never becn well since that night. Madame Minnie Hauk has gone to Kissingen to be treated there for a severe attack of rbeu- matismin her right shoulder, contracted in Russia, when she was ona concert tour in that country,last winter. The Russian climate is pe- culiarly pernicious to singers, and the charm- ing Carmen has not escaped the usual pen- ality exacted of the tuneful-throated race. Miss Ella Russell, whose splendidly heaithfui physique is as remarkable as her beauty of ag moe and of voice, told methat it was only y dint of EXTREME PRECAUTIONS that she escaped all the forms of illness caused by the extreme cold, during her long Russian engagements. She always has her rooms heated to an unvuarying and equal tempera- ture, and goes out of doors as seldom as pos- sible, driving, wrapped up in furs, to the opera-house to rehearsals or representations. Miss Eames was the prima donna at a soiree musicale given the other evening by the United States Minister and Mrs. Reld at the conclusion of a dinner party in honor of Mrs. I.. P. Morton. The perfect modesty and womanly sweetness of. the young American singer, joined to her fine voice and finished vocalization, have made her in mumense success as the prima donna of the private concerts given in the highest social Circlesof Paris. There is nothing false or meretricious about her beauty, nothing doubtful or of a style that demands indulg- ence or apology about her conduct. Voice, loveliness and manners are all pure and win- hing, and essentially American. Miss Eames is now studying ‘*Brunebild,’’ in Reyer’s ‘‘Sigord.’’ She will make an ideal representative, in all respects, of that loftily deal character. Mme. Emma Nevada is to re- turn to Paris this week from her triumphal Progress through Spain. She is to go early in July to Ems totake the waters and to rest in anticipation of the fatigues of the coming season, whith promises to be an exception- ally busy one for the popular little prima donna. Mme. Marchesi has issued invita- tions fora finalconcert, at which her non- graduated pupils only will appear. I under- stand the star of her classes next season will be &young New England lady, Miss Howe, who commenced her vocal studies in Dresden, and Who, consequently, has a good deal to unlearn belore she can graduate under the care of her admirable teacher. She is said to possess a Voice of exceptionally fine quality. THE AMERICAN MINISTER and family are now installed in their sumptu- dus hotel on the Avenue Hoche, Despite the beat of the weather Mrs. Reid has already taken up her reception day, and is at home to callers on Mondav alternoons, Her visitors have averaged each onday since the first of the month over two hundrea daily, The Minister ard Mrs. Reid have also given a series of dinner parties zinc their installation, reserving two even- us in the week for their home entertain- ments and accepting no invitations whatever On those days.

Ite Growth Means a Step Ahead in Civiliza- tion. M. J. Savage in Boston Globe, The growth of the vacation custom means nothing less than a step ahead in civilization. It means that at least a part of the people have got far enough along to understand the value of living as distinguished from the work of getting together something to live on. To exist is one thing. To live is another thing. N When we are talking about the matter of. living, it all turns on the question as to the nature, the capacity, the needs of the creat- ure under discussion. A horse can live out his full life ifhe is not worked too hard, and it he has a comfortable stall and a plenty to eat. But a man—what about him? Is it enough for him if he be not worked too hard and if he have a comfortable shelter and enough toeat? It is indeed true that when some one in England said to Cobden that he hoped to see the time when everybody would read Bacon, he replied that he would be glad to hail the day when everybody could eat bacon. But Cobden himself would have been the first to say that this would be only a step towards a higher condition. In barbaric times the people were barbarous because they had no wants higher than those ot the animal. If a man were sheltered from the weather and he had enough to eat he was content. Andif to-day a man is content with shelter from the weather and enough to eat is he not still barbaric? And is this not true even though his sheiter be a mansion on the Back Bay and his food be furnished by a French cook? His wants not rising above those of the animal it makes little difference how liuxuri- ously they may be met. The furnishings of the stalldo not change the nature ot the in- habitant. If one thinks of it a little it becomes apparent that the grade of being is indicated by the grade and number of that being’s wants. The shelter and food come first, as the conditions ofexistence. But these wants are on the aul mal level and are shared by all animals ulike. If the brain be developed then some satisfac- tion for intellectual tastes becomes a neces- sity. People want books and time for thought and study. If the sense of beauty be de- veloped, then art in some of its forms becomes apart ofdaily life. People hunger for beauti- fulthings. Ifthe moral and religious nature be developed, then they are impelled to seek truth and righteousness, both for themselves and others. And in the case of most of us is it not true thatif everything was taken away trom us ex- cept shelter and food we should hardly care to live at all? Books and music and beautiful surroundings—these, together with friends, with social intercourse, with the search for truth and labor towards the attainments of our ideals, are what muke up for us what we mean by life. Take these away, and we should hardly call it living at all. What has all this to do with the growth of the vacation custom? It has everything in the world to do with it. If we look at it care- fully it will set the whole matter in a clear light. The most of the year on the part of the ordinary business man is spent in the effort to make money. Whatfor? Whut is money good for? A pile of gold dollars left in a pile is of no more worth than a pile of pebble stones. A dollar is worth only what one can get in exchange for it. So if one spends his whole life in accumulating a pile of dollars he has not necessarily lived at all. He has only been getting together the means that have power to help somebody else live, if he is wise enough to find Out how. If he oniy decorates his stall with his money he is but a better lodged animal. Now, in order to enter on the higher life that makes one In the true sense a man, there must be time for the cultivation of thought and taste and the facuities that distinguish the moral and religious nature. And this means some time taken fromthe mere work of getting money. Then, after these hicher and human faculties are developed, there must be time for their exercise and use. This isthe very central problem of civilization it- self. For the ideal millennium all the world has dreamed about and hoped for is only this —a condition of things in which all men and all women shall be released from so much of toll as Will leave them free to cultivate head and heart, and so live in the super-animal ranges of their being. For since most of the world’s vice and crime finds its source in our hard battie for life, such a condition of things as Ihave hinted would mean not only gen- eral happiness, but general goodness as well. A general recognition of the fact then that lifeis something higher and better than a mere struggle for the means of living is a dis- tinct and definite step ahead in civilization. If ever the world gets far enough ahead and gets such a control over natural forces that it can afford to work fewer hours in aday, and give over more and more time to the life of thought and beauty and truth seeking, then indeed the animal may be put under foot and ‘the man may reign. So let us approximate this as fast and as far as we can. Let us get as large a foretaste as we can ofthis emancipation. As many hours adayas wecan snatch from 2 let us count as saved for real human living. As many weeks in a year as we can redeem from the hard grind of money-making let us regard as added to life. We are like serfs bound to the soll, but engaged in working out our lib- erty. A foretaste of that liberty, a breath of the fresh air, a sight ot the sea, a touch of mother earth—these let ustake and enjoy as prophecy of the time when we shall so control the world’s forces that less labor and more life shall be our heritage.

From the Chieago Tribune. It is not yet twenty years since a Boston physician wrote a book contaiping the direst prophecies of the immediate and rapid de- generation of the American people, and all because some ambitious young women had conceived the absurd idea of mastering the Greek aorist and reading Homer in the original, and were mad enough and ego- tistical enough to imagine that the limita- tions ot their feminine brains would permit them to fathom the mysteries of trigono- metrical differentials and exponentials and rectilinear asymptotes. The most prophetic proportions of the book were copied by nearly the whole press ofthe country, and anxious parents looked into the pleading eves of aspiring daughters and gravely concluded with the Boston physician that ignorant mothers with healthy bodies were far prefera- bie for the well being of the Nation to intelli- gent mothers with the unsound bodies which were so scientifically demonstrated to be the inevitable results of the higher education of American girls. Dr. Clark was not the first of the false prophets of this world who have lived to see their own epitaphs written by the brains and hands they sought to fetter. Ideas that are purely exotic may be nipped in the bud by critical conservatism. Ideas that are indig- enous, ideas that are the natural outgrowth of the intelectual life and condition of a nation, may be checked in their development by con- servative clipping, but their ultimate growth is inevitable. If the American girl would find the true character of her intel- lectual freedom she must go back to the old district school-houre, whither trudged through sun and rain and sleet the boys and girls from all the country around, and where the giris, and the boys, too, learned that a girl can spell incomprebensibility and all the other worde dependent upon ability as well as a boy. The American girl was never to any great extent afflicted by that peculiarly European institution—that crazy quilt patch- work of all sorts of superficial knowledge— the governess. The mothers and grand- mothers and great grandmothers of these ambitious New England girls had been granted all the coeducational advantages of the district schools, and there were even tra- ditions extant of some of those mothers and grandmothers having ‘‘spelled down’’ all the boys in school. The daughters of every gen- eration are apt to answer the questions pro- pounded by their mothers. WHY STO AT LATIN AND GREEK? The mothers of those New England girls had asked themselves: Why stop at Latin and Greek? And the daughters determined to study Latin and Greek 2 1 all the remonstrances and prophecies of the medical fathers. It is possible they would not have been so eager to study Latin if they had known that the venerable Cato had declared: 9 the world were only free from women, men would not be without converse with the gods; or, ifthey had known that the divine Cicero bad said: Many motives will urge men to one crime, but one passion will impel women to ali crimes.’’ Their eagerness to read the New Testamentin the original might not have been so greatif they had known that with that knowledge they were alsoto learn that 'the silver-tongued Chrysostom,’’ whom they heard quoted with such veneration from the pulpit, had declared woman to be ‘‘a nec- essary evil, a natural temptation, a de- sirable calamity, a domestic peril, a deadly fascination, and a painted ill.’’ The American college girl saw many of herold ideas smashed beyond any possibility of gluing them together with char- ity into their original perfection, but Dr. Olark and the other doctors, M. D.s and LL. D.s to the contrary notwithstanding, she continued to wax strong in stature asin Greek. So true is this that itis a generally admitted factthat the young women who have gradu- ated from our colleges these June days are far above the average American girl in health as well as in mental training. There are sufficient reasons for this fact. While we readily admit that parents rarely allow a daughter whose health is not firm to enter upon a college course, yet this does not explain the other fact so constantly noted by those who have charge of those young women, viz.: that with rare exceptions they gain in health and strength during their college course, and upon graduation have greater powers of physical as well as mental endur- year. THE BLESSINGS OF HIGHER EDUCATION. One of the greatest blessings this higher education has brought to American girlhood is its enforced regularity in sleeping, vating and working. While the society girl from the aye of 18 to 22 is wasting all the vitality of her womanhood in receptions, balls, theaters and midnight suppers the college girl is learning the most useful lesson of her lite, viz.: that a good appetite for her breakfast, a sound digestion, a clear brain and cheerful disposition for ber work, be it Homer or housecleaning, mean from eight to ten hours of sleep, made sound and healthful by vigor- ous exercise in the open alr. The thoughtful college girl has been looking at her brother’s magnificent physique, which has never known a headache or a pang of indigestion, and her thoughts have gone back to a morning in her childhood, when she and her brother Tommy were having such a glorious romp. She was¢taken into the house and told severely that ‘‘nice little girls never romped like that,’’ and if she romped any more she would bt called a ‘‘tomboy.’’ She was given apleceof muslinand a needle and thread, and, crouched down by the window, she spent the whole morning in sewing seams which for artistic crookedness excelled any rail fence in Virginia. Spe remembers when her brother came into dinner he wasso hungry he could hardly walt for ‘‘grace,’’ and she remembers, too, how, while she wauted only one slice of bread and butter, in her brother's capacity for bread and butterand meat and potatoes he was like one of those fabled casks of the Danaides. The thoughtful college xiri bas been thinking of those days while Jooking at her brother. and science and common sense teach her that the difference between her brother’s digestive powers and hers—and between his broad, deep chest and ber narrow, fiat chest—all dates back to that bread aud butter episode. And while the society girl cramps her muscles and her life with the torturing fetters imposed upon her by fashion and conventionalism the college girl has stripped herself free of them and stands with every muscle as unfettered as her brother. She has sent stocks down in corsets and up in flannels. She is swinging from the gymnasium crossbar with the grace and ease of an expert athiete;she is as fleet footed as Atalanta; and she is realizing for herself and her children the blessing without which there can be no real happiness for wo- manhood—mens sana in corpore sano. Another important factorin the health of college girls is the way in which they spend theirsummers. Ask the average society gir! where she is going to spend her summer, and in nine cases out of ten she is ambitious to go to some fashionable resort where she can have a good time. A ‘‘vood time’’ means to her too often an 8x10 foot room, where she poisons all the health gained in the open air through the day by inhaling ‘carbulic acid ali night. Not infrequently it means an outing spent in the same inane round of social gossip, and beau-beating, and husband catching that characterized the ‘‘season.’’ Ask the college girl the same question and in nine cases out of ten she will tell you she is going to spend it at -home—which means that she is going to have plenty of fresh air night atid day, and that she will spend these summer months in those quieter and simpler easures of none oe that bring to body and rain a healthful but not intoxicating stimulus.

The golden age of Antarctic discovery ar - rived when Captain, afterward Sir James, Ross was dispatched from England in 1840 to fix the position of the south magnetic pole, or any other position he could dis- cover on the way there. Before Ross could reach the scene of his iabors other explorers, English, French and American, were busy forestalliing him. Of these, the first was the Englishman, Balleny, who, sailing in En- derby’s a the Eliza Scott, discovered in 1889 the islande which bear his name, and which lie almost under the Antarctic Circle; and almost due south from New Zealand. Balleny could not land on the islands, but he made sure of their existence, and afterward, sailing far to the westward, ue saw many mare signs of land, and suspected the exist- ence of much he could not certainly vouch for. What Rallewy thought he saw was probably much what the French expedition under Du- mont d’Urville actually did see in the follow- ing year, several long lines of coast, which might be joinedto one another, and might even run on to join Enderby land in the west, and ifso might certainly be parts of the Antarctic continent thatd’Urville was anxious to find. Not less anxious was Wilkes, the leader of the United States exploring expedition, who only a montu after the Frenchman arrived within a degree or two of the Antartie Circle, to the south of New Zealand, and after seeing land where Balleny bad cerzalnly seen it beiore, began to fancy that be suw it also where none had seen it before, and, unfortunately, wbere no one has seen it since. For some days, in- deed, Wilkes doubted whether what he be held ere mountains or clouds, objects which his crew watched eagerly, to see if with the | setting of the sun they would change their color. But after running westward along the edge of the pack for afew days he made sure that he now saw land, and somewhat inconse- quently assumed it for certain that what he had seen before was land also. The discovery ofanantarctic continent was announced as 4 cértainty; a very large island with a barrier of ice before it and a range of mountains upon it was laid down on the map, and acopy of the — was handed by the rash but generous explorer to Ross, who left Tasmania in the autumn ofthe same year to look for the magnetic pole, with the two ships Erebus and Terror, which after- ward bore Sir John Franklin to his fate at the other end of the world. Ross had so little doubt that the antarctic conti- nent was discovered already that he seems to have been almost disappointed when bis way to the magnetic pole was barred by an un- known land. Yetthis land, which lay south of the 70th parallel and eastward of Balleny’s Islands, was the most southerly hitherto seen in the world, and on it rose mountains thou- sands of feet high, plain and mountain alike robed in stainless snow, except on the cliffs by the shore, where the black rock came out, The coast ran almost due north and south and along its eastern face Koss advanced steadily till he had beaten Cook’s record and also Weddell’s and gone further south than ony before him. ut he could find no landing place on the main land, so choked was every inlet with snow and ice; only on asmal!l island were the adventurers able to touch antarctic earth, a few men among thousands of screaming and biting penguins. Fresh mountains came con- stantly into view as they moved southward; at last one in latitude 77 deg., over which what seemed a cloud of snow was blowing, but when they came nearer they saw that the cloud was smoke, and gave the name of Mt. Erebus to a giant volcano higher than Etna, which beiches forth smoke and fire in a land where all things are trozen. Before Mt. Erebus lies Cape Cro- zier and round Cape ‘Crozier Ross hoped to find a way to the westward, so as to reach the magnetic pole by the back of the new land he had found, But as they approached they saw stretching from Cape Crozier ‘‘as fur asthe eye could discern tothe eastward,’’ a ‘‘low white line,’’ the nature of which they did not derstand till they came close enough to the truth with their eyes. It was a wall o 150 feet high, without break or slope, bu e glittering, perpendicular steep, than which, as Ross said, one might as easily Paxs as through the cliffa of Dover. Along this gleaming rampart Ross ran eastward for 250 miles, and in the succeeding year, 1842, for more without coming to its end, on both o which occasions he reached the high latitude of 78 deg. south, which has never since been approached by auy man. Stomach- Washing in Infanis. From the Youths’ Companion. Everyone knows that in disordered condl- tions ofthe stomach abnormal changes are effected in the food, so that it becomes a source of disturbance, often very serious, to the system. Instead of being expelled ina fow hours it is retained many hours, or some- times for whole — , and generates Irritating acids and frequently poisonous subtances. In cases of this kind, the process of washing out the stomach pas n of late years in- troduced with the happiest results. It is et- fected by means of a syphon, so constructed that the washing fluid can be flowing into the stomach while the contents of the stomach are flowing out. The cleansing process is con- tinued until the outflow becomes pure. In cases of spasmodic closure of the pyloric orifice, whichis attended with great and pro- tracted suffering, the process fs of the great- est value. It is so also in forms of dyspepsia and in many other gastric troubles. But latterly it bas proved to be still more valuable, in the case of infantsand young cbildren. Dr. Leo of Berlin has made a par- ticular and careful trial of it in the case of over one hundred infants, after first experimenting on thirty well infants between the ages of 2 hours and 12 months, to determine the normal conditions of the stomach. He learned the following facts: The tood was distinctly acid in fifteeu min- ys fatty acids were resent. Pepsin, which — pyarecilecie acid in the digestive d so is curdling rment. A considerable portion of the food passes out of the stomach in half an hour, and in younger children the whole of it within an our. In the case of older children more time elapses.

EATING AT{SEA. The Enormous Amount of Food It Takes te Stock an Atlantic Liner. From the New York Star. There is an enormous profit in the steam- ship business during the spring and summer months, the gross receipts from a single ~ frequently rising above $100,000, the Etruria, the Umbria, the City of New York or any other of the great liners leaves her dock with from five to six hundred gece as they do regularly every week etween the middie of April and the middie of July, recetpta from the cabin average more than $100 for each person, and represent the aggregate $60,000. The other sources income fromthe ship, such as freighs, mails, the steerage and the bar, amount almost as much again. There is not a vessel on the ocean that can seat more than 250 peo- Die inthe matin dining- room. For this reae son there are two dinners served when the passenger list runs above that number, and you are asked at the office whether you prefer the first or the second dine ner—one at 5 the other at 7 —and this, with the number of your room, is puton the purser’s list with the number of your place at table, and when itisonce fixed no change will be made. An officer presides at each of the maln tables, and the highess= honor is to sit at the cuptain’s table—if possl- ble on his rightor left—and great tact is re- quired to arrange the seats satisfactorily and give no cause tor jealousy among the passen- gers. The perishable food only is bought in this country, and such things as melons, oysters, peaches, cigars, tomatoes and other articles that are cheaper and better here than abroad, together with the necessary supply of coal to carry the shi across the Atiantic, All of the groceries an wines are purchased on the other side, the supply being laid in for the round trip. When a vessel of the first class is lying at her dock in New York in the spring months, with nearly a thousand people to feed for seven or eight days, she lays in an enormous amount of provisione, which are put in the iee-room. Of fresh beet usual amount is 12,500 pounds, with 760 pounds of cerned beef, 5,230 pounds of mutton, 850 pounds of lamb, 350 pounds of veal and the dame amount of pork and about 2,000 pounds of fresh fish. These figures may well make the thrifty housewife stare in open-eyed won- der. What could she do with the fifteen tons of potatoes put aboard every tendays? These ocean greyhounds are well supplied with game, as the list of the head cook, which was recently sceu by the writer, showed 200 brace of rouse as being put aboard fur a single voyage, with 600 fowls, 300 chick- ens, 100 ducks, 50 geese and 80 ture keys, besides thirty hampers of vegetables 220 quarts of ice cream, 1,000 quarts of mil and 11,500 eggs. It is said that it the ocean dried up, you could trace the route of the transatiantic steamers by rows of empty champagne bottles between here and Europe, which is not surprising, seeing that the Uue nard Line alone uses about twenty-six thou- sand bottles of champagne per year. The star bar is a most important department on a large passenger ship, and the profit from this source is suid to often ex- ceed §5,000 from one trip. All of its goods are uton at Liverpool for the round vais + or at avre or Bremen. The consumption fer one voyage includes 1,100 bottles o 1 850 bottles of claret, 6.000 bottles of ale, 500 of porter, 4,500 of mineral water and 660 bot tles of various spirits. Lemons are used on an average of ll2 per head per day, apples 2% per head ver day, and oranges at the rate of 8 per head per —_ The groceries for the round trip incinde pounds of tea 1,200 of coffee, 1,600 of white sugar, 2,800 of moist sugar and 750 of pulverized sugar. The round trip takes twenty-two days, during only one-balf of which are the passengers abourd; yet it consumes on one ship 1,500 pounds of cheese, 2,000 pounds of butter, 3,500 oundstof ham and 1,000 pounds of bacon. tough weather is expensive to the steamship * in the large breakage of crock- ery which it entails —2 the cabin pas- sengors and stewards, and the record of a re- cent voyage showed among the broken articles 900 plates, 280 cups, 488 saucers, 1.213 tumblers, 200 wine giesses, 27 decanters and 6 water bottles. The steamers of one line running be- tween New York and Liverpool sell 64,000 cigars per year, 57,000 cigarettes and 35,000 pee of tobacco. Among the other items ne yearly supply which appear in the au- nual report, covering the entire fleet of sixteon s, are I% tons of mustard and 2 tons epper, 7,800 bottles of pickles, 8,000 tins of ardines, 15 tons of marmalade, 22 tons of raisins and currants, 13 tons of split peas and 15 tons of bariey, 60,000 loaves of Lread of 8 pounds each, 64 tons of ham, 83 tons of salt, 34 tons of oatmeal, and 10 tons of yellow consumed every year by this one line and nearly one million eggs. Stammering and Deafness, e St. James Gazette. StaMmering has hitherto been supposed to be purely a nervous defect. Some ences recently acquired by the 2 cone nected with the Ear Hospital, Soho Square, tend to call this view more or less in question. From In carrying out certain operations to cure children of deafness, it was found that several successful cases the oper ators also elmultaneousiy cured the patients stammering. This fact attracted special tention and study, and the outcome has the firm conviction that stammering, im th majority of cases, does not proceed nervous malady, but from some or defect connected with the organs ing.

PREPARING FOR THE FRAY. - Democratic Leaders Feeling the Way to 289 VPFictory tn 1892. 5 By Telegraph to the Posr-Disr Aron. ‘New Tonk, July 13.—There is something 5 going on in nalional politics. Ever since ‘Wm. ©. Whitney, ex-Secretary of the Navy, yeturned from Europe he has been holding conferences with the leaders of the National Democracy. Mr. Whitney, Chairman Brice, of the National Committe; Senator Gorman of Maryland and two other party chiefs were seen dining in Del- monico’s Thursday evening. After dinner they adjourned to a private room, not in the building, where they held a conference, and, it is said, were joined oy Mr. Cleveland. Yes- terday Congressman latrick A. Collins of Boston, Chairman of the State Democratic Committee of Massachusetts, came to the city, calling at once upon Mr. Whitney. A meeting of 80 many men conspicuous in the politics of the country as these gentiemen are could not fall to attract attention and com- ment. A well-known Democratic leader in this city atthe Hoffman House last evening said that be had heard that such a meeting had taken place. Heintimated tbat Chairman was anxious for the Dem- to beg in its work and not to wait until too late. That there are opposing fac- tons hard to reconcile in the party is no secret, and that the local leader believed that these gentlemen had put their heads together for the purpose of coming to a common under- standing of the situation.’ The practical poll- ticians of the party are anxious, it is said, to enter the campaign of 1892 without being saddied with afree-trade piatform. They as- oribe their defeat at the last election to hav- ing espoused the cause of a reformed tariff. They see no prospect of carrying the — ey if ladened with this principle, and are therefore anxious to have as little to do with the subject as possible. But there is another element which is of a different way of thinking. It is confidently believed that the principle of tariff reform is a winning one ultimately. They say that the the doctrine of protection. The practical politicians desire to avoid being saddled again with a princ!ple,but the tariff reformers and free-traders who made themselves felt in that committee are more determined than ever tnat the party shall not go back onthe principle;that it shall fight the question once again and again if neces- sary. With this principle actuating the peo- le, itis difticult to tell who will vote the emocratic ticket and who will not. It will be impossibie to proceed in the preliminary stages of the campaign without giving expres- sion to views as to how the party chieis will actin regard to the subject of tarifi. THE FALL OF PARIS. A Big Show Will Open at Sportsman’s Park Next Sunday Night. One week from to-night the grand spectacu- lar and military pageant, ‘‘The Fall of Paris and the Reign ofthe Commune, will open at Sportsman’s Park and it promises to be a magnificen§ success. The pyrotechnic features alone will be well worth the small price of admission, while the whole entertainment with its wealth of dazzling gorgeousness will prove the biggest out door entertainment ever offered in St. Louis.

LIVELY VAGRANTS, The Work-House Too Dull for Them and They Silently Steal Away. By Telegraph to the Tosr-Disraron. KansAS Cirr, Mo., July 13.—Charles Bush and Walter Scott, two men confined inthe Work- house for some time past, escaped from that institution shortly aftér 6 o’clock last evening. They were there at 6 o’cloadk and half an hour later were found to be missing. A hole in the cast wall of tne building, which is of wood, told how they had es- caped. It had apparently been cut with a knife. The prisoners had been Shackied. It is supposed that they had the hole cut for sometime awaiting an opportu- nity to escape, and that they cut their shack- les in some way before getting out. There were eight or ten guards around the Work- ouse tween 6and 6:30 o’clock, and bow Bush and Scott escaped without being seen is something of 1 und Scott were two worst men confined in Work- House. Bush is said to be an expert burglar and dia- mond thief and isa fine-looking man, about 24 years of age. This is his second escape from the Work-house. About eight months 22 escaped from the rock pile with his ackieson. He had then been there only two weeks and was working outa fine of $500 for vagrency. Four months ago he was re- red and was again committed. Scott is @ mulatto and was working out a fine of $50 tor Vagrancy.

ERRIFIO batt ing and miserable . fielding eharacterized tue game at Sports- man’s Park yesterday | between the Browns and Baltimores. It was a long-drawn- out ago- ny. Latham again di- tinguished himself by apathetic play. He leta grounder get by him under pretext that he thought it was a foul, and was twice put out on base through careless base- running. Once he was caught napping feet off second, and an- other time he was caught try- ing to reach second on a hit to right. It he had displayed anything like his usual speed he could easily bave reached the bag. King, who was put in to pitch for the Browns, was sick and had no speed or effectiveness. After he had been batted very hard for two innings he was removed and Stivetts putin the box. The latter pitched a remarkable game, not a hit being made off him until the ninth inning, when Tucker secured a single. Cunningham was batted terrifically, the Browns making 22 hits off him for a total of 37 bases. twenty THE GAME. A base on balls given O'Neill, a single to right by Comiskey, Holland’s low throw to Arst, of Robinson’s hit and hits by Duffie and Fuller, yielded the Browns three runs in the first inning. Baltimore also scored in their half of the inning. Shindle hit safely, went to second on a passed ball and tothird on Tuck- er's safe hit of which Robinson made a fine stop, Shindle going to third. The latter scored after O’Nelll’s out at Mack’s fiy. Tucker went to seeond and scored on Hornung’s safe onetocenter. Milliganthrew his mask off on the line while catching Duffee’s throw- in, and Tucker claimed he threw itthere to injure him, and for awhile a fight between the two players seemed imminent. In the second after the Browns had gone out in order Baltimore took the lead. Dowie got in a scratch hit past third, Latham refusing to take it and the batsman reaching second. Latham claimed it was foul, thoughit was clearly fair. Fuller made a fine stop, but a very wild throw of Cunninghem’s hit, Dowie scoring and Cunningham reaching second. He scored on Shindle’s ht to left. The latter stole second and third and scored on Tucker's single to center. O’ Neill opened the third inning by going to base on balls, Comiskey hit to Mack and O’ Neill got out of the way ofthe ball butthe Baltimore second baseman, after fumbling it purposely, RAN INTO O’ NEILL and tried to have the latter declared out for interfering with him, but was unsuccessful. Comiskey reached base. Duffee’s drive over Grifün's head for three bases sent both men home. Milligan knocked the ball over the right-field fence tor a home run, Duffee also scoring. As King was pitching without any speed and was being hit bard, Stivetts was placed in the box atthe opening of the third inning. The crowd had clamored for the change atthe end of the second inning. The change proved wise. With one man out in the fourth inning the Baltimores got three men on vases, but were unable to score. In the fifth inning after Robinson had been retired, Duffee was sent to base on balls Fuller hit to third and reached base on Shindle’s wild throw to first. Bott men scored on Milligan’s drive to center, Milligan going to second on the throw in. Stivetts’ single to left sent Milligan tothird. The big catcher scored on Shindle’s fumble of Latham’s hit, Latham reaching base. McCarthy was given first on balis, filling tbe bases. O’ Neill’s drive to center sent Stivetts and Latham across the plate, McCarthy reaching third. O'Neill went to second onthe throw in. On Comiskey’s fly out to Dowie, McCarthy scored and VU’ Neiil went to third. The big left flelder scored ona wild pitch giving the Browns seven tallies in tnat inning. Inthe sixth inning Milligan repeated his performance of knocking the ball over the right field fence for a home run. Latham made a base bit in the seventh inning but was forced out at second by McUarthy’s hit to short, the batsman reaching base, how ever;O’Neill hit safely to center and he and McCarthy were brought in by Robinson’s home run drive which pounded into the left Held seats. Dowie’s muff of Latham’s fly in the eighth inning gave Arlie his base, but he was forced out at second by McCarthy’s hit to Shindle. McCarthy reached first. O'Neill drove a ball to leftcenterand it bounded into the seats, making it a home run hit and giving the Browns two runs. Shindle permitted Comis- key’s bounder to xo through his bands, and the Browns’ captain reached second. Kobin- son Was sent to dase on balls, and he and Comiskey scored on Hornung's muff of Fuller’sfiy. Fuller scored on Quinn’s throw to catch him attempting to steal third. Shindle was not looking and let the ball go out into left field. Stivetts’ safe hit to left, Latham’s sacrifice, McCarthy’s single to left center, O'Neill's single to Tucker, Comiskey's single to right and Robinson’s safe hitto center yielded two runs iu the olnth for the Browns.

KaNnSAS City, Mo., July 13.—The game to- day between the Athletics and the home team was a miserable exhibition on the partof the home club and demonstrates the fact that the one thing the club needs more than anything else is strict management and a management that will give them confidence in themselves. It was a battle between the sluggers and the tielders, and it was the flelding of the visitors that won. Seward pitched a stronger game than Conway, but had the latter been given the support he deserved, Seward’s superiority in the box would have made little difference. Manning’s good fielding in left field and Long’s poor work at short were the striking features of the home club’s playing. The visitors played a good ail-around game. There were no brilliant plays by either side, nor any efforts to win the applause ofthe grand stund, and the small crowd that was present went home in an un- enviable frame ofmind. Score: KANSAS Gr.

Spalding’s Base Ball Trust. NEw YORK, July 13.—President A. G. Spald- ing of the Chicago Base Ball Club has been at work for some time on a scheme to classify all the ball players in the country who are not members of the two leading leagues. His plan is embodied in a letter addressed to President Nick Young of the National League, in which he says: My general plan would be something like this: The National League and American Association to continue as they are now, the governing power in professional base bail; they jointly to make the playing rules and to furnish the system, means and power for carrying out the laws as provided for ina national agreement and articles of qualified admission. All other professional leagues and associations to be divided into say four classes to be known as class A, B. C and D. Class A would probably include such associations as the International League, Western Association, California League and others of about the same grade. Class B would include associations whose drawing powers would be about 25 per cent less than Class A. Class C would include associations whose drawing powers would be about 50 per cent less than Class A. Class D would de the lowest, including clubs that cannot afford to pay over $50 or $60 per month salaries. The present plan of protection to minor leagues, with the right to reserve, would be continued, with the following modifications: Class D clubs would be obligated not to pay salaries aggregating over $600 per montn and no indi- vidual player over $60 per month, all players in this class subject to requisition from any club of n higher class on say? one week’s notice, upon payment of a fixed bonus of say $250, to be paidto the club releasing the player. Class © to pay salaries aggregating not over $1,000 per month, and no individual player to receive over $100 per month. All players in this class should be subjectto requisition from any clubin a higher class upon payment of a bonus of $00. Class Bto pay salaries ag- gregating not over $1,500 per month and uo individual goes to receive over $150 per month. All players in this class to be subject to requisition from Class A, and the League and the American Association upon the pay- ment of u bonus of $1,000. Class Ato pay sal- aries aggregating not over $2,000 per month and no individual player to receive over $200 ver month. All players in this class subject to requisitlon only from League and American Association clubs upon the payment of a bonus of $1,500. The League and American Association to continue their pres- ent reserve system. Modify this classification salary limit by wmak- ing it non-operative on players whose habits are exemplary, and who shall have completed a service of three years in the Leaygug or American Association. To discourage the present sales systom in the League and American Association could suggest that only one-half of the bonus paid for the release of a player shall go to the club releasing him, one- fourth tothe player, and one-fourth to the league or association of which the releasin club is a member. I wouldrecommend a boar of appeals, a sort of a supreme court, as it were, to whom could be referred for ad- judication and settlement all disputes between associations and clues and players, also the interpretation of the playing rules, and the constitutions of the twoleading associations and allpointscoming up under the national agreement, the decision uf this court to be final. I merely offer these ideas as de sug- gestions, and of which I think can be evolved n moro comprehensive scheme for handling tv stfessional base ball in America than the plan we are now working under.“ Tim Keefe Objects. NEw YorK, July 13.—Timothy J. Keefe, Sec- retary of the Brotberbood of Base Ball Pliay- ers, expressed his views concerning President Spalding’s scheme this morning. In the opin- ion of Mr. Keefe the plan would never work atall. ‘‘I have had many expressions of dis- approval of it from the players,’’ said he, „and not one favors the project. President Spalding says that he wants to perpetuate the game of base ball. That is a good idea, but it doesn’t need any perpetuating. The American people will look out for that. And this new plan wouldn't help it any, either. It would be fiercely opposed by all the professionul base ball players in the country, and it couldn’t go into operation.’’ ; ‘*I think the plan a good one, said Pres- dent Day, ‘‘as I am heartily in favor of any favor of any scheme that wil) secure protec- tion to the minor league clubs.

NEW YORK, July 13.—Edward Gratz, Master- at-Arms on board of the United States flag ship Richmond, is recovering slowly from the effects of a brutal and cowardly attack by several sallors, who tried to murder him while the vessel was at anchor inthe River Plata, in South America. According to advices re- ceived here yesterday. Gratz has been master- at-arms ofthe flagshiv of the South Atlantic squad ron for two years past, aud has been in the navy since 1571. When the Richmond sailed from the Brooklyn Navy Yard, De- cember 26, she carried a comple- ment of twenty-five officers and about 300 men before the masts. It is now reported that Gratz on various occasions was com- 1 to report several of the crow for gamb- ing. Shortiy after midnight of May 12 five men stole uptothe place where Gratz lay. He had beenbusy all day and slept too soundly to hear the approach of the would-be slayers. One of the brutal seamen dealt him a heavy blow over the head with an iron instrument, proba- bly a belaying pin, while another gagged him. The blow rendered him insensible. The men then pushed the blanket about the unfortu- nate and lashed a small rope tightly about the hammock ia which Gratz lay to all appearances aA dead man. The whole had been done so quickly that none but those engaged in the attack were aware of what was going on. The men then fastened another line to a smal! iron ring in the upper end ot the hammock and cartied Gratz on deck in his hammock. The men believed that they had killea their ship- mate and they were now preparing hastily to rid themselves of the evidence of their crime. Ifthey had simply lowered him overboard and cut the rope the current would have floated the body, asthe canvas used in ham- mocks on board of a ship is almost water- tight. Their object was to make the hammock sink, and for that reassn the rope with the hammock attached to it near Gratz's head was dipped up and down several times inorder that the water might reach the bedding, so that the hammock would sink as soon as it was cast adrift. The noise caused by this operation was drowned by the murmur of the water. The night was dark and the men were about to cast off the rope which held the hammock when the quietness of the n ght was suddenly disturbed by cries ot Helpl hetp!’’ The cold water had dampened the body of the unfortunate man and restored bim to consciousness. The men becawe alarmed, and just as the stern voice of the quartermaster on watch rang out: Man over board!“ cut the rope and Gratz and the hammock drifted down stream. A swallboat belonging to a Spanish vessel ancbored astern of the American flagship was — Passing by and the sailors in it soon had ratz in his hammock on board.

The Sultan invited me to partake of a regular Turkish dinner at his palace one day,and my recollections of it have been very vivid ever since. It was my ambi- tion to remember the menu, but it was so long and the dishes had such bewildering no matter in whose services the latter may be. Through the women of the barem the eunuch gets his litical power. Ali the offices and political influence are more or less subjected to the will ot the women. It is lit tle known what power the favorite wife of the harem exerts over her husband. If the husband isa high dignitary his favorite wife cajoles and indeed completely rules him in many things.

LAYING poker with afixed hand is general- ly regarded as one of the surest and safest games ever played. There is one other, however, which has the advan- tage of it and that is the semi- trust organiza- tlon among business men which has for its object the ex- tortion of certain prices and the fixing of arbitrary rules to govern transactions with other interests which must deal with it and which cannot get around that necessity in any way. Ot all these there can be no doubt from pa- tient investigation that the Board of Fire Underwriters is the worst aud most arbitrary in its rules, and ifthe anti-trust law does not strike it, as it was certainly intended to, it will be very surprising. As published in the PoOstT-DISPATCH some time ago several of the members are considerably alarmed over the situation, butthey generally affect a con- fidence that, though the law was aimed at them, they will be able to evade it through a legal definition of the word commoditv.“ As was also published in the Post-DIsraTCH atthe same time, the entire insurance busi- mess of the country is governed by one board. It makes rates for everything, and agents mustadheretothem. The St, Louis Board is one of the few independent ones, but even though it is independent it is so firmly bonnd up that one of its members cannot take a risk outside ofthe St. Louis jurisdiction without inguiry of the Compact Manager of the dis- trict. And even then the policy must have his sanction, though he has no connection with the company becoming responsible for a loss, and though that company may have no more regard for his rules or opinions than it would for those of a country boy who had never seen an insurance policy. BUT NOTWITHSTANDING THIS FACT the St. Louis Board of Fire Underwriters ts a novelty in its way. It bag gone farther ana has given birth to more nonsense than almost any other organization of asimllar character in the country, and just to that extent at least it deserves to have all the law available come down upon it with full force. The St. Louis Board really had its birth in 1866. There bad been a Board of Marine Un- derwriters for some time, but in that year a meeting was held at the Marine Underwriters’ headquarters and a Fire Underwriters’ organ- igation was perfected. It had butfew mem bers, but, however this was, their action re- Suited in a marked advance in insurance rates and a great many remonstrances from the in- sured. Then in the early part of 1872 the pres- ent board was organized, also with afew members. It had for its object the survey and scheduling of insurance ris«s in the manufacturing and mercantile districts, and as its objects were ali to be confined to re- sults directly connectly connected with this, and were not to be in any way directed toward ‘@xtorting rates and fixing arbitrary rules, it Was thought it might result in a good thing forthe business public in securing equitable rates. As stated, the agents identified with she organization were few in number. The Outside agents were numerous and powerful. They embraced nearly gil of the men who are now leaders in framing and enforcing the be- of the organization was. THE TEETH OF THE TRUST MONOPOLY Were cut very early, The new organization bad the adyantage of association witb others of a similar character and throuxh that of connections with some very powerful Companies, Thescheduies, surveys and rates were printed, but it required something more a request even from a member to obtain One of these printed lists. An indemnifying bond was exacted, to the effect that the per 5 Don receiving the list would not allow it to go of his hands, and particularly that under dy and all circumstances he would prevent den outside agent from getting any information way possible. pas 3 board started out as a plone er in st methods—orgavizine against and hampering them in every And as a natural result, as it been through all trust time where oo eer were willin to the wall unless they — 4 on to a show of success, the outsiders — u reorganization was effected, and St. : is was left without any competing insur- bt Binoe then a great many changes in customs eompetitors “and rules have been made. : THE CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAWS been so patched and amended, to suit tau ends and to further private ends, there is now but little resembiance to the It bas reached the point now where 5 ye —— into the simplest details of an been given it of the ’ Alliance, in contrast to the gentie- aa ' agreement of the railroad presidents’ tion, In this the Websterian definition the word is not meant to apply to the ents who are members of the a tthe name was applied use ofa rule i in the by-iawe at the time of the re- zation.

The assured is even more help- less, and particularly so in St. Louis, whe the board and non-board insurance combina is inadequate to the demands of business. In the first place the constitution announces the ebject to be the ‘‘promotion of harmony and correct practices“ and the ‘‘estabiisn- ment and maintenance of adequate rates of insurance,’’ and ‘‘the adoption and enforce- ment of such rules and regulations as the best interests of fire underwriting within its jurisdiction eA seem to ro- quire,’’ Tul jurisdiction is defined to include all of St. Louis and such portion of St. Clair and Madison Counties, III., and St. Louis County, Mo., as it shall deem necessary for its own interests. Any person or firm represeating one or more insurance companies, the agents of which, ifany, in St. Louis, are or shall immediately become awenable tothe board, shail be eligible for membership, on u two-thirds vote, but the ec ag ew may be terminated for cause at any time. Sub-agents may be elected to nem- bership without seat or vote, but they must be strictly amenable to the board. THIS ARBITRARY PROVISION, by which the board may prevent the forma- tion of a partnership which might be very de- sirable as between individuals, is then made: Changes in a frm, members of this board oY which a new rtner or rtnere are admitted t eretw, must receive the approval of this board by the same vote necessary to elect a member; otherwise the firm’s membership may be terminated. With a requirement for a two-thirds vote to confirm a new partnership, any in- fluential member could forever de- feat the formation of an new business ties, part:culurly as the two-thirds is not of the full membership, but of the mem- bers presevt, and the opposition would have the advantage of packing the board before the applicant could have any knowledge of the threatened contest. The great danger in this rule is in its throwlng open the gates for mem- bers to satisfy their perseual spite, Another one, however, which cannot be overiooked is the obstacle it places inthe way of young wen. A young clerk, for ustance, may have served bis employer so faithfully and gealousliy that the employer may desire to reward him by making for him ajunior partnership. Before doing it, however, he must gain the consent Ot a lot of meu who are inno way concerned in the matter and who can have no personal interest in it. The young man may have made enmities through his zeal fur bis personal em- ployer, rather than the board; or he may have done something injudicious affecting another agent—for all of which be mustremain a plain, every-day clerk, though the only man really interested recognizes the value of his services und desires to reward them and «at the same time avel himself f them more fully. RATES, PRIVILEGES AND PENALTIES. The absolute power of the board to adjust rates and determine the form of policies, and to provide the most severe penalties, is shown by tne following provisions: This board may fix and change rates of premium, and regulate forms of policies aud tndorsements thereupon, by a concurrénce of two-thirds of the wen bers present at a regular meeting, or at any meeting cailed specially for that purpose, provided notice in writing shall have been given ten ‘ays be- forehand to the l'resident or Secretary of every m- tion or resolution directly changi z a schedule charge. or which, in its application. would change or modify a rate; and the l'resident or ecretary of the board shall, at the next meeting thereafter, report resolution and tleir recommendations thereon. i'resent rates of prem'‘ums shal! remain in force until changed by future action of this board. The recommendation of the President 18 generally sufficient to carry it, as the aver age meeting on such matters consists of the officers and the members interested. be only place where even an ordinary qnorum is re- quired is in changing by-laws, and even there a simple majority of members entitled to vote is necessary. he penalties constitutional provision follows: The board shall have power, inthe manner pre- scribed in the by-laws, o deprive of the privilege of voting, or reprimand, fine. suspend, or expe! anv member, or remove any officer, for a viol«tlon, or neglect of, or refusal to comply with, any duty,rule or provision of the by-laws orof this (Constitution; but no member shali be expelled except bythe aflirma- tive vote of two-thirds of the members present ata regular meeting. REGULATING MEMBERS. * In connection with this section the board is authorized to restore a member to member- ship or office and tothe privilege of voting. A member is also graciousiy given the privi- lege of withdrawing, though he must first vive one month's written notice, and must not be in arrears in fines, etc., and must have sur- rendered all board property. A person re- signing, however, I- placed in the -ame cate- gory with expelled members, and the board is given authority to regulute business inter- course with uim and to order absolute non- intercourse, In the by-laws it is made the duty of mem bers to attend all meetinus, and falling three times consecutively he may be fined $10 to $25. Once at a meeting be must remain to the close unless excused by a majority vote of those present, anu he must also vote on all ques- tions unless excused In the same manper. Such meetings require only one-third of the mm- bers entitled to vote to constitute a quorum, however, and one-half of this one-third may ag ey a meeting. ‘he Secretary is charged with making as- sessments on quarterly receipts. These re- ceipts are those of agents on their current bu iness, and every agent must four times a year wake a complete statement of hig busi- ness and of the preiniums received. A closing injunction is placed on every member as follows: The transactions of this board are confidential and the action of members in relation to matters occurr- ing at board or committee meetings shall also be deemed -trictly contidential, and shall not be di- vulged to any person not a member, or an officer of a company represented in the board. CONTROLLING THE BUSINESS.

The deceased Gart- side provided in bis will that all his properties should remain ntact until after his youngest ut u e, and an executor was appoiuted to look after the estate in the meantime. Prior to his death Mrs. Gartside, the surviving wid«ew, waived ber dower interest in ber busbvand’s ent to and accepted in ticu thereof an annuity ot $5,000 for the remainder of ber ‘ile, and in that she got, it is suid, about life insurance «after Mr. Gart- For the muintenance and edu- cation of bis chiidren he stipuiated in bis will that euch of them should be paid 81,000 per annum until such time tuat the estate was equitably divided among them, and the al- ieged failure to fully pay over these moneys bas caused agood deal Oi wrangling, both inside and out of the courts, among the beirs and between them and the executor.

A year ago a delegation of citizens and mem- bers of the Municipal Assembly madean ex- cursion to St. James, Mo., to inspect Mera- mec Springs, then thought to be an available source for securing a water supply for the City of 8t. Louis. Mr. Fielding Mansfield, who was one of the party, brought back a quart bottle taken from the big spring. On his return he covered the top of the bottle with a muslin cl th and ex- posed it to the sun licht in all but extremely cold weather when it was placed in the house. Yesterday the water was sampled and was ound to be as pure and sweet as the day it was taken from its source. The result, it is claimed, shows that the water is free from all vegetable and animal matter. The springs are located about six wiles from St. James, Mo., a point 100 miles Louls, and elevated about 290 feet above the Union Depot. ‘tbe dally output of the sprinvs is 64,000,000 gallons, more than double the average dally consumption of 8t. Louls. The uality of the water, which is much softer than the city’s supply aud which as has been shown rewains perfectly sweet after ex- „sure for a year, justifies, in the judgment of he experimenters, a careful investigation into the availability of the springs as a source of supply for the city. 7 Now Is the Time to Register, Recorder of Voters H.

Their niece, formerly Miss An- nie Grace,now Mrs. Mar- cus Jacobs, and her hus- band are also at the Gll- ‘sey. The Mayor bas just returned from Montreal, where he was feted by ~# the officials. The party } lett to-night for Niagara Falls. To a SUNDAY 1 POST - DISPATCH re- porter he said: wy find that St. Louis has a maguificent standing among the men here who deal and invest in securi- tles. Our bonds are in demand, and there is a syndicate of wealthy Hollanders who have a representative here, who are more than anxious to deal with us. Iam going slowly in this, asin other matters, doing my utmost to shape my plans so as to secure the greatest possible advantage to the city of St. Louis. I don’t mind letting the readers of the SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH know that during my absence from the City Hall I have investigated several matters of vital interest to our com- munity. I have taken up the subject of manufacturing gas, and givenitagreat deal of attention. This I have done with a view to protecting our city from the machinations of THE GAS RING. Weallunderstand fully the game which the gas companies are playing. They expect in 1800, when their.charters expire, to have us at their mercy. They hope to be able to say to us that we must either accept their terms ox con- tent ourselves with living in darkness. They will have us at their mercy and compel us to agree to their terms unless we shall have prepared ourselves to meet the emergency. I have made up my mind to free the city from every ring and boss it possesses. I intend during my administration to make a chapter of St. Louis history of which every St. Louisan willbe proud and to leave my own mark on that chapter so deeply and indelibly written that it will be a standing reproach to the peo- ple who voiced their fears so loudly concern- ing my administration last April. To show that I mean business and that the one purpose of my administration isthe good of the com- munity, I have set myself to the task of PERSONALLY INVESTIGATING those subjects which most deeply concern our people. I have begun on gas because I deem that the most important of all, inasmuch as we are likely. unless we take steps to pro- tect ourselves, to be placed in a most distress- ing and helplessly pitiable position » hen the gss companies ask us for favors in 1890. My researches have nothing todo with the price of gas. Ido not want to say too much, just now. but this news will be welcomed by st. Louisans, that I have found in Ohio a process for manufacturing gas which will make us in- dependent of the existing companies and which will render nil their plots and schemes. This process does not manufacture gas in large quantities, butit is very simple, con- sisting -merety of a boller and some water. It costs very little and a plant would be neces- sary forevery five or six blocks, but the entire city of St. Louis could be fitted out with these machines inside of thir- You see now you not, what i mean?

The drill and the discipline which they have acquired aroused my admiration. introduced in St. Louis. It is simple and pretty. There are six movements of the baton and four marches. These are under command of the lit utenant. Then there are two move- ments under command of the cap- tain. The men march, countermarch and open ranks. Then the Sergeant marches down between the lines and comes back and reports totue Captain, when the men close ranks, face about andthe drill is over. The patrol- men like it. All people who can dance well, and all who can march well, are fond of op- 1 to dispiay their skill, and the New ork policemen seem to very proud of their drill. Then there is a military dash about it which recommends it. Ithink the St. Louis policemen would like this drill very much. The best thing the New York police have got, however, is the teleseme system of signalling. Four hundred boxes, lookin like our fire alarm boxes, are placed aroun the city of New York and by means of these every patrolman is completely under the con- trol of his sergeant, every sergeant under con- trol of his captain and every captain at the command of his chief. Any citizen ean send an alarm to the police or the fire brigade, and the most perfect security and protection are guaranteed. In connection with the patrol wagon'the teleseme would supply the one thing necessary to make the police system of St. Louis perfect.’’ THE TELESEME. The SUNDAY PostT-DISPATCH reporter went with Mayor Noonan to the headquarters of the Teleseme Co. and there, * the kindness of the inventor, F. Benedict Herzog, had a com- plete exemplification ot the system. The tele - seme consists of a dial with a movable arm and by subdivisions of the face of the dial, itis made capable of conveying twenty-five to 150 or more distinct messages. By the use of numbers and a code it can be made to carry 10,000 different messages. The police dial has about one hundred and {ty messages on it, all plainly printed, so that the stupidest patroiman cannot mistake them. Ifa Sergeant at a precincts station wishes to issue anorder toacertain patrolman, connection is made with the main box on the beat and the message is sent, irrespective of the patrol- man’s presence at the other end or not. The message remains stored in the box until the man for whom it was intended comes along. He releases it ten minutes or if that were pos- sible, ten hours later, and it comes to him as fresh and complete as if it had just been put on the wire. — an arrangement of signals, silent or noisy, patrolinen ma be summoned tothe boxes and communicated with. The calls at the precinct stations are so arranged that the sergeant in charge knows at once whether itisan ordinary notification, an emergency call or afire alarm. in cases of robbery, murder, etc., | A MULTIPLEX PLUG © inserted in the ewitebboard at the police station rings loud gongs in a half dozen or more adjacent boxes and notifies citizens and patrolmen alike that there is trouble at a cer- tain point. For instance, if there is a robbery near box 143 the patroiman on that beat sends in a swift message, the multiplex plug goes into the switch- board and six or ght boxes radiating from 143 sound their gongs, which keep on sounding, - ringing out 1-43, with short intervals between the numbers, until the fugitive is caught or the trouble ended. By meuns of teleseme signals the streets may be cleared for fire engines or for a procession. Citizens can send fire or police alarms. In fact, a child can work the machine, The teleseme is also applied in hotels, where it does away with the bell boy. The Windsor Hotel uses several hundred of them; also the Albemarie, and soon all the hotels will have them. The hotel in strument is simplicity itself. On a dial are all the usual wants of hotel patrons. A guest turns the hand of the dial to ‘‘hot water’’ and pushes a button. The message first appears on the annunclator in the hotel office. The clerk sees that room No. 26 wants something. He presses the button of 26 or he simply in- serts a plug in 26 on the switch board and in an instant the hand of the big dial in front of him flies around to ‘‘hot water’’ and he knows immediately that room 26 wants hot water. Dials have been madeto accommodate those who want drinks, also for patronsof restau- rants. There are dials with bills of fare print- ed all overthem. There are dials and ma- chines for stock brokers. In fact, the tele- seme can be and has been adapted to the re- quirements of any and every busi- ness. They are being placed in private houses for police and (fire purposes, and as they are very cheap there is no reason why they should not soon become so numerous that a woman can sit at home and teleseme the grocer or butcher, while her husband may be abed in the morning and teleseme the corner saloon to send hima cocktail. Mayor Noonan spent several hoursin the teleseme headquarters and said as he came away that it would be a splendid addition to the St. Louis Police Department, WEDDING INVITATIONS.

Literary work, politics, | and a residence in the Hoosier State have wroughta marked change in his looks and made him stouter and some- what gray. His face is fleshier and round, and he wears a mustache and a heavy goatee. His vivacity, his careful diction, and his in- ‘terest in affairs have not fallen into painful desuetude, and to-day, perhaps, he stands closer to President Harrison than any other man in the country. I met him recently at the Gilsey House, and chatted with him while he was eating broiled crabs. I asked him if there was as much skill re- quired in preparing a dish of crabs as there was in cooking terrapins. He said that few restaurants knew how to broil crabs properly, and added: I always get excellent crabs at one place in New York and @ Baltimore. The latter city, of course, is the true home of the terrapin and crab, and the cooks there know how to serve these most palatable edibles. Of course, more skill is required in preparing the terrapin for the table than thecrab. The great difficulty in eating terrapin properly cooked is that you eat too muchof it. If there ever was a SEDUCTIVE, ENTICING DISH, itis terrapin, and I warn those who have never tasted it to be careful and not overindulge. Now, I have eaten many strange dishes in Tur- key, andI must con- fess that some of them were toothsome and delicious to the taste. In Turkey the wealthy have French cooks — De — ee 42 regular French style. 2 But among the Turks Gen. Lew. Wallace... who cannot afford the luxury of a — cook the traveler will find many puzsling and palatable dishes. The Sultan invited me to partake of a regular Turkish dinner at his palace one day, and my recollections of it have been very vivid ever since. It was my ambi- tion to remember the menu, but it was so long and the dishes had such bewildering Turkish names that I soon despaired and endeavored to write down a few of the most remarkable dishes. I had the waiter to write the names for me, but I could not make anything out of it. Such long and unheard of words, and so unpro- nounceable, that I gave up and with not much reluctance. The dishes were often composed of a mixture that I could not solve, either by taste or sight. Some of them were simply delicious, and others had a taste that pre- cluded swaliowin@them. I must say, though, that the dishes that were palatable were pe- culiarly seductive, and of the twenty or thirty courses I found enough to more than satisfy my appetite. The Sultan has French cooks, but on that occasion he had called in the best NATIVE TURKISH COOKS.’’ „After dinner, Isuppose, the Turks smoke the same as Americans, do they not?’’ „The Turks are great smokers, but they smoke real tobacco, the finest and the purest in the world. They have the art of raising and curing tobacco, and they know how to smoke to keep from being poisoned by nic- otine. Instead of having a short stem pipe, they smoke a chibouque, a clay pipe, large and bell-shaped at the mouth, with a cherry stem several feet and often yards long. It is sweet smoking, too. The long cherry stem absorbs all the nicotine, so that when the smoke reaches the mouth it is pure, not hot, and can be inbaled with safety. Ihave seen a Turk inhule smoke from his chibouque and keep it in his lungs over a minute, and then ermit itto exude from his nose and mouth. he widest smoker here would not dare to in- hale tobacco thatlong. Now cigarette smoke here is unendurable to me, although lam an in- veterate smoker. I cannot go into a room where a number of cigarettes are being smoked, because the peculiar odor of the smoke is unbearable. In the first place the tobacco is aduiterated and the paper compos- 8 wrapper is diluted with creosote. But in Turkey the cigarette is innocent and emits an odor entirely inoffensive. There is but one piace in the world where the real Turkish cigarette is made, and that is in 123 near Smyrna. The people who engage in manu- facturing them do not understand the art of adulteration. They put in pure tobacco and the paper wraps are not doctored with any solution. Tobacco will not cause the Turks to degenerate, although smoking is universal among both sexes.

Through the women of the harem the eunuch gets his tical power. All the offices and political influence are more or less subjected to the will ot the women. It is lit- tle known Sat power the favorite wife of the harem exerts over her husband. If the husband isa high dignitary his favorite wife cajoles and indeed completely rules him in many things. The eunuch gets the ear of his mistress and she in turn brings over the husband to her ideas. Of course there aty 2 u wife tob e a favorite. Tou know e saying, General, that wherever the Turk plants his feet the grass withers—why is that true?’’ Simple because the Turk is non-progres- sive. Heis now an obsolete factor in the march of civilization. If there were no other weapons of warfare but the sword THE TURK WOULD BE A CONQUEROR, as he was hundreds of years ago. Then they were irresistible and conquered province after province, and were gradually making their way into Europe. Long range fighting is not to the Turk’s liking, except it is very long. He never improves, but permits ruin and decay to surround him. If he has a fine house and part of it decays or falls, he never thinks of rebuiiding it, but permits it to become a total logs. He will build anew house by the old one, and that peculiar dispo- sition aecounts forthe many ruined palaces and dwellings seen on the Bosphorus. His gates and fenves may fall, but he does not care, and serenely pursues the even tenor of his way. He believes in Allah and is fanati- cal. It is a true faith with him, and he has no doubt. Many Christians, too, are more or less fanatical, so intente, so faithful are they in what they believe.’’ There ought to be many picturesque ruins in Turkey and the Orient. I suppose that you have seen some of the most famous, have you not?’ „es. The most famous and to me the most interesting relic of an ancient building is the foundation of the temple of Jerusalem. Titus, the Roman general, destroyed the tempie of the Jews when he _ captured Jerusalem. I believe that he would have des- troyed the very foundation of the temple if it pad been possible. But it was built for dura- bility and will stand unimpaired for thousands of years to come. The temple covered a large area and not a vestige was left standing. When I VISITED JERUSALEM naturally I was anxious to see the foundation ofthe temple. It is underground and in order to be seen lanterns were carried by the It consists of many pillars and stone supporting groined arches. At once the wassive- ness, the indestrnctibility of the founda- tion struck me, Thousands of huge pillars in every direction completely bewilder the be- holder. In those days there was no mortar, no cement, used in building and the marble is joined together in away that the moderns baye not been able to imitate. On a part of this foundation there has been built a mosque called the Haram—not harem. The Haram al- together is one of the most beautiful struct- ures I have ever seen, It ts built of all kinds of stones and finished most artistically in pure oriental architectural style. The beauty of this building to me consists in the effects of the light upon the interior walls and pillars. It is impossible to describe the soft light pour- ing in on one side, and then a different shade, afew yards distant, giving a pleasant contrast and as it were intoxicating the eye with prismatic effects. Ase to the City of Jeru saiem, it is dirty, filthy and uisenchanting in many respects. The streets are narrow and tortuous. One would think, from reading about Jerusalem, that it was a large city pase artly standing, show thatit was small. Buildings are going up outside of the walls, and old Je- rusaiem is left as it was as much as possibie.

WORK ON THE NEW BRIDGE. Plans and Specifications for Bids on the Approaches to Be Out This Week. President S. W. Cobb, Vice-President C. C. Rainwater and Director John Whittaker of the Merchants’ Bridge, accompanied by a se- lect party of business friends, visited the site of the bridge last evening to inapect the work 80 far as it has progressed. It was the largest party that has yet made the trip, and there. was more or less formality about the in- spection. All of the gentiemen were enthusi- astic over the progress made so far, and over the prospect of the bridge being ready for op- eration next June. President Cobb and his associates were also generously congratu- lated over the decision of Judge Withrow, in the Circuit Court yesterday, which decided that there is room for both the Transfer Railway Oo. and the Terminal Railway Co. on Hall street and under which the Terminal com- pany will be authorized to immediately pro- ceed with track-iaying. Speaking in explana- tion of the work on the bridge President Cobb said that they had only yesterday struck rock bottom for the East Side pier, where they should have reached ita week ugo had it not been for striking large boulders. All cause of delay is now overcome, however, and the pier will be completed in ten days, by which time the water will be low enougn to admit of the launch ng of the channel caissons. After that, as already stated in the Post DISPATCH, it will take about four weeks’ time to oom plete the channel caisson work and get the lers above possible high water. This week, resident Cobb says, bids will be invited for the work on the approaches on either side of the river. The plans and specifications for this work are now about completed. The bids will be received about August 1, and the work on the west side of the river will then be com- menced, and soon after that it will be begun on the east side. This work will consist mostly of iron trestle and masonry. It has generally been supposed that this work was all included in the Union Bridge Co.’s contract, but it is to compiete the structure only 450 feet on either side of the river from low water mark. The work on the superstructure under its con- tract will also be begun within a short time. REJECTED THE COMPROMISE, Contract Tallor Schmidt Can Not Get His Labor Cases Setiled. District Attorney George W. Reynolds re- ceived notice from the Treasury Department yesterday that the offer of compromise made by H. A. Schmidt had been rejected. Schmidt is the Olive street tailor who is charged with having imported twelve journeymen tailors in violation of the contract iabor law. The cases were brought to the notice of District At- torney Bashaw, who began suit to recover $12,000, being the fine of $1,000 for each case. The statute rovides that $1,000 may be recovered r each violation, civil suit. The importation b a of contract labor is not a criminal offense, but simply subjects the importer to the imposi- tion of a fine, which goes into tue treasury. Schmidt, through his aitorney, Judge Medill, made an offer to compromise some months ago, consenting to pay $1,000 if the cases are dropped. This offer was rejected and he then offered to pay $2,000, or about $166 for each case. This also was rejected and the Treas- ury Department deeided that it had not the power to compromise a case which had not been tried when the possible pun- ishment was a fine. If the punishment was imprisonment and the violator was sentenced to twelve months in jail, the Treasury Department could not say it would be satisfied with sixty days, so it cannot re- duce fines, and particularly it cannot accept a smaller amount than the possibie fine when yo failed to locate him, tate.

LAYING poker with afizxed hand is general- ly regarded as one of the surest a nd safest games ever played. There is one other, however, which bas tbe advan- tage of it and that is the semi- trust organiza- tion among business men which has for its object the ex- tortion of certain prices and the fixing of arbitrary rules to govern transactions with other interests which must deal with it and which cannot get around that necessity in any way. Ot all these there can be no doubt from pa- tient investigation that the Board of Fire Underwriters is the worst and most arbitrary in its rules, and ifthe anti-trust law does not strike it, as it was certainly intended to, it will be very surprising. As published in the Post-DIsPATCH some time ago several of the members are considerably alarmed over the situation, but they generally affect a con- fidence that, though the law was aimed at them, they will be able to evade it through a legal definition of the word ‘‘commodity.’’ As was also published in the Post-DIsPraTCcH atthe same time, the entire insurance busi- W tm e moss of the country is governed by one board. It makes rates for everything, and agents must adhere to them. The St. Louis Board is one of the few independent ones, but even though it is independent it is so firmly bound up that one of its members cannot take a risk outside ofthe St. Louis jurisdiction without inguiry of the Compact Manager of the dis- trict. And even then the policy must have his sanction, though be has no connection with the company becoming responsibie for a loss, and though that company may have no more regard for his rules or opinions than it woula for those of a country boy who had never seen an insurance policy. BUT NOTWITHSTANDING THIS FACT the St. Louis Board of Fire Underwriters tsa novelty in its way. It bag gone farther and has given birth to more nonsense than almost any other organization of asimilar character in the country, end just to that extent at least it deserves to have all the law available come down upon it with full force. The St. Louis Board really had its birth in 1866. There had been a Board of Marine Un- Gerwriters for some time, but in that year a ‘meeting was held at the siarine Underwriters’ _ headquarters and a Fire Underwriters’ organ- It had butfew mem- bers, but, however this was, their action re- - guited in a marked advance in tnsurance rates and a great many remonstrances from the in- sured. Then in the early part of 1872 the pres - a ent board was organized, also with afew members. It had for its object the | Survey and scheduling of insurance risks in the mannfacturing and mercantile districts, mand as its objects were all to be confined to re- pulte directly connectly connected with this, and were not to be in any way directed toward ‘e@xtorting rates and fixing arbitrary rules, it Was thought it might result in a good thing tor the business public in securing equitable Yates. As stated, the agents identified with - the organization were few in number. The ‘@utside agents were numerous and powerful. ‘They embraced nearly gil of the men who are ef now leaders in framing and enforcing the be- | of the board. 1 organization was. 2 THE TEETH OF THE TRUST MONOPOLY N cut very early, The new organization the adyantage of association witb others a similar character and throuxh of connections with some very powerful jes, Theschedules, surveys and rates | — ita but it required something more N request even from a member to obtain dne of these printed lists. An indemnifying Pond was exacted, to the effect that the per- don receiving the list would not allow it to go ut of his hands, and particularly that under and all circumstances he would prevent de agent from getting any information AR to Ite contents, Thus the board started out as a pioneer in But whatever the object 11 der trust methods—organizin alnst dom ors and — — th overs ble. ane — na 2 i = . . 8 4 = igation ted, and St. without any competing insur- D0 then a great many changes in customs les have been wade, THE CONSTITUTI n ment and maintenance of adequate rates of insurance,’’ and ‘‘the adoption and enforce- ment of such rules and regulations as the best fire underwriting within mer seem to ro- q jurisdiction is detined to include all of St. Louie and such rtion of St. Clairand Madison Counties, III., and St. Louis County, Mo., as it shall deem necessary for its own interests. Any person or firm representing one or more insurance companies, the agents of which, ifany, in St. Louis, are or shall immediately become amenable tothe board, shall be eligible for membership, on a two-thirds vote, but the e may be terminated for cause at any time. Sub-agents may be elected to mem- bership without seat or vote, but they must be strictly amenable to the board. THIS ARBITRARY PROVISION, by which the board may prevent the forma- tion of a partnership which might be very de- sirable as between individuals, is then made: Changes in a frm, members of this board by which anew partner or partners are admitted thereto, must receive the approval of this board by the same vote necessary to elect @ member; otherwise the firm's membership may be terminated. With a requirement for a two-thirds vote to confirm a new partnership, any in- fluential member could forever de- feat the formation of an new business ties, part:culurly as the two-thirds is not of the full membership, but of the mem- bers present, and the oppusition would have the advantage of packing the board before the applicant could buve any knowledge of the threatened contest. Tue great danger in this rule is in its throwing open the gates for mem- bers to satisfy their personal spite, Another one, however, which cannot be overlooked is the obstacie it places inthe way of young wen. A young clerk, for ustance, may have served bis employer so faithfully and g-ealously that the employer may desire to reward bim by making for him ajunior partnership. Before doing it, however, he must gain the consent ofalot of men who are in no way concerned in the matter and who can have no personal Interest in it. The young man may have made en mities through his zea! for bis personal em- ployer, rather than the board ; or he may have done something injudicious affecting anotber agent—for all of which be must rewain a plain, every-day clerk, though the only man really interested recognizes the value of his services und desires to reward them and ut the same time ava.! himself f them more fully. RATES, PRIVILEGES AND PENALTIES. The absolute power of tho board to adjust rates and determine the form of policies, and to provide the most severe penalties, is shown by the following provisions: This board may fix and change rates of premium, and regulate forms of policies and indorsements thereupon, by a concurrénce of two-thirds of the members present at a regular meeting, or at any meeting cailed specially for that purpose, provided notice in writing shall have been given ten ‘ays be- forehand te the l'resident or Secretary of every mo- tion or resolution directly changi z 3 schedule charge. or which, in its application. would change or modify a rate; and the l'resident or -ecretary of the board shall, at the next meeting thereafter, report on the same, siating the effect of -uch motion or resolution and tmmeir recommendations thereon. i‘resent rates of prem'‘ums shal! remain in force untii changed by future action of this board. The recommendation of the President Is generally sufficient to carry it, as the aver- age meeting on such matters consists of the officers and the members interested. Theonly place where even an ordinary quorum is re- quired is in changing by-laws, and even there a simple — ot members entitled to vote is necessary. he penalties constitutional provision follows: The board shall have power, inthe manner pre- scribed in the by-laws, o deprive of the privilege of voting. or reprimand, fine. suspend, or expel anv member, or remove any officer, for a violation, or neglect of, or refusal to comply with,any duty,rule or ‘provision of the by-laws orof this Constitution; but © member shali be expelled except bythe aflirma- tive vote of two-thirds of the members present ata regular meeting. REGULATING MEMBERS. In connection with this section the board is authorized to restore a member to member- ship wr office and tothe privilege of voting. A member is also graciousiy given the privi- lege of withdrawing, though he must first ive one month’s written notice, and must not be in arrears in fines, etc., dnd must have sur- rendered all board property. A person re- signing, however, ix placed in the-ame cate- gory with expelled members, and the board is given authority to regulute business inter- course with himandto order absolute non- intercourse, In the by-laws it is made the duty of mem bers to attend all meetinus, and falling three times consecutively he may be fined $10 to $25. Once ata meeting be must remain to the close unless excused by a majority vote of those resent, and he must aleo vote on all ques- ions unless excused in the same manper. Such meetings require only one-third of the mm- bers entitled to vote to constitute a quorum, however, and one-half of this one-third may 1 a meeting. he Secretary is charged with making as- sessments on quarterly receipts. These re- ceipts are those of agents on their current bu-iness, and every agent must four times a year make a compiete statement of hig busl- ness und of the premiums received. A closing injunction is placed on every member as follows: The transactions of this board are confidential and the action of members in relation to matters occurr- ing at board or committee meetings shall also be deemed -trictly conti/ential, and shall not be di- vulged to any person nota member, or an officer of a company represented in the board. CONTROLLING THE BUSINESS. It is provided that no contract shall be en- tered into that is not subject to the board rates; that no insurance shail be placed on any risks not rated by this board or any other association or manager, «xcept under the rules and rates in force; that no pol.cy or re- newal shell be ante-dated to take advantage of a previous lower rate, and that no member shall make a rebate to the assured or his em- ploye, directly or indirectly. In this same 3 the rules are very explicit, as iol- ows: No order for insurance in any company o erty rated or ratable bY this board sball be . from, nor shall any policy on such property be de- livered toany person or firm ovt a member of this board, except the following : The assured (or his salaried employe, who must be wholly disconnected with the musinese of imsurance in any capacity); non- ent agen on property situate outside jurisdiction vf the ened ake (on * — rents only) St. Louis real estate agents, duly licensed A ede ape and qualified ander the following con- 60 3 Every such rea estate agent must ee in writing, in terms ordained by this board, not to give directly or indirectly any pes of any commission receive by bim on acewunt of insurance policies to avy other person or persons whatever; and not to procure or assist in procuring insurance for any person or per- sons whom he does not directly and au'horitatively represent in care of the property upon which the in- surance is place 1. The retary of the board shall give notice to members of the acceptance of these conditions in each case; and only such real estate agents as are thus officially reeoguized by this board shall be considered eligibie for the transaction of any business relating to insurance with members of this rel inate argat shal work's eee & work a forreiture in the privilege herein aud hereby couferred. 1887 Great stress is then laid upon the question of commissions, presents, etc., and em- phasis ia laid upon the position of expelied ere. In employing a solicitor an agent must place his name before the board, and he ane be voted upon precisely as ifa member was be- ing elected.§ Then if a solicitor wishes to go from one agent to another he must be again voted Soom. But ali the time the nt is heid responsibie for every act f the solicitor. HE SYSTEM OF BOYCOTT. The schedule and rates of the board and rules or resolutions governing the application ofthe same, as the same may be in force from time to time, are declared to be the lav of the board, and every member is chargeti in the following section with the duty of discoverin ali insurance not controlled by the — after which the officers of the board p to make it im ble for the assured to fii! out bis line without resorting to undergroun companies and illegal means: ef the accused: The preferring of charges Fe on shall be taken fo Fils cbanee made agains 3 ours from the rred ata meetiu The accused is bound to answer any and all questions and to submit any and all books and papers, If he does not he is immediate! pronounced to be guiity. He must also If ordered to do 80, ask the assured to submit bis books, and if the latter declines to do 80 the accused is zuilty, also, In the penal- ties when the offense is one of error the pun- | ishmens is — a fine of $25. When found that an «ffense of error bas been committed by wrong advice, the one who did it is not ex- cused, but the member who gave the misiead- ing advice is brought up under charges and also fined. SEVERE PUNISHMENT. This is discipline in a mild form. But when it appears that the offense has been one of a wiliful and deliberate nature, it shall be considered uu offense of the second class and the conv cted member shall forfelt to the board 350, and shall further immediately proceed to cancel all policies them in force piaced or written by him on the risk upon wiich be has been convicted, and shall fe with the bord his agreement in writing not to write or place any policy upon suid risk for the term of one year from the date of conviction, the violation of which agreement shall be held to be a viola- tion of the rules of the board. Until his com- pliance with thie penalty the rule of absolute non-intercourse shall be strictly enforced. | It isalso provided that contumacious refusal to submit to the board’s authority or ruies, paying rebates tothe a-sured or to others for ulm, or for business, or dealing directiy or in- directly with unregistered or uuauthorized of litigation for a good many years, owing to a agents or brokers, is an offense of the second class. and no vote sha! be taken as to the classification of such offenses. In the case of expelled members the President of the board is charged with the duty of »otifying bis com- pauies of such fact, and urging the company to remove its agency. In vase a company refuses and remains with an expelled ber, then the board deals with it by a boycott vote. THE ASSURED’'S POSTION. The assured as well as the agent is placed in a very unpleasant situation in the course of a trial. questions asked and show his books, or the necused will be found guilty. Then comes the | necessity of finding a new agent with whorn to piace bis line of insurance, as, while 10 can keep some insurance, he cannot piace any through the agent. There is a vontingency, also, under which the assured is boycotted as absu- tutely as the agent is placed under the ban of non-Iintercourse. This is that if the assured, or the person in his employ who way be most nearly relatedt the matter, Shall refuse to answer satis actorily to the cow mittee any relevant questions asked by them, the committee shali thereupon report the arraigned member gullty of t..e charge as made. In such case the assured shall also be inculpated with the arralzned member and non-intercourse with said erson or firm upon all insurance matters, shall, until such questions are definitely and satisiactorily an- swered, be declared and maintuined in pre- cisely the same way and to the same extent as against the arraigned member. A CASE OF MORAL SUPPORT. There are a Freat many wore rules and a great deal more detail, but those quoted ure sufficient to show the arbitrary manner em- ployed in enforcing the board’s behests, In the rules in conn: ction with Intercourse with expelled members a great deal of stre«s is laid upon a lack of moral support, the moral sap- port being to the board and requiring abso. lute non-intercourse. There are a great many interesting incidents in the enforce- ment of the rules, but one in reference to moral support takes the premium. It oc- curred with a young man whose father had been an agent and who had been expelled. The son then was brought face to face with the non-intercourse rule. Within a short time, however, be wus called upon to place a risk for one of his father’s oid friends, and aiso a family friend. A few days later he was called up under charges, and though it was shown that his father had not influenced the business, and that he had not held any busi- ness intercourse with him, the young man was tined 80. In this case, also, the insured was on hand te acguit the young man of any lack of moral support so far as he was con- cerned, but the board evidently was in need of $50 or thought the young man needed dis- cipline, and the money was retained. ONE OF THE GREATEST OUTRAGES worked by the board, and one not shown by its rules, ie in scheduie rating and the frawing of policies. The board’s strong claim among business men is that it encourages the erec- tion of bulidilogs better than called for by the city ordinances, and the placing of safeguards in buildings already erected, That it does not do sois evidenced by one rule. An !llustra- tlon: A. has a building in which he has goods stored to the value of $500,000. 10 provide against a sweeping fire and a total loss he builds walls up throudvbh the building and through the reof, and places iron doors in the archways leading from one apartment into another. He thinks he has guarded against loss completely, and expects to geta lower rate of insurance. But exactiy the opposite isthe result. He cannot get vianket insur- ance ubiess be joins in with the co-insurance clause. He must do either that or take sep arate insurance on each apartment. As a result he pays the maximum of remlum for the minimum of insurance. . bas a stock of the same value without anv protection, but simply piled into one big room. He gets whatever insurance he wants. however. There is no sense in thig at all, of course, but it shows the tendency to extort on every possibie excuse, ANOTHER PIECE OF NONSEWSE is in the area charge. Atsome time or anoth- eran agent had a risk he wanted to euchre some other agent out of, and he induced the board to make an area rate on a certain nom- ber of feet front and such a depth, Anything over the excess front pays heavily, but no dis- count ts made for apything less. One man bas a front on three sides of his bullding and a shallow center, the three fronts forming the outside lines of the letter E. The two side fronts are 150 feet, and the front roper $00 feet. He can elect which he will ake for a basis of area rating, but as they are all io excess he has no choice, Across the street another man Las the entire rear portion of a block, ten times the space covered by the Arst one. Asa tront entrance he bas a nar- row room, only twenty-five feet, but be can elect to take it as the basis for area rating, and be does so, CASES WITHOUT KXUMBER of this description couid be enumerated, but — 1 are all ot a detaſted character and are well known to insurers and assured.

The division of the vast estate of Joseph Gartside, who died iv 1876, has been a subject disagreement of the heirs as to their just pro- portion of the property. The deceased Gart- side provided in bis wil) that all his properties should remain ntact until after his youngest heir, Miss Jul a Gartside, should nave arrived at ace, and an executor was appointed to look after the estate in the meantime. Prior to his death Mrs, Gartside, the surviving widew, waived ber dower interest in ber busband’s estate and accepted in ſicu thereof an annuity ot $5,000 for the remainder of ber iife, and in aduition to that she got, it is said, about $150,000 in life insurance «after Mr. Gart- side died. For the maintenance and edu- cation of bis chiidren he stipulated in his will that euch of them should be paid $1,000 per annum until such timetbat the estate was equitabiy divided among them, and the al- ieged fuilure to fully pay over these noneys baa caused a good deal ot wrangling, both inside and out of the courts, amoung the heirs and between them and the executor. Alter at least three years’ iitigation the courts, about three months sinee, appointed u commission consisting of Mexsrs. on L. Hull, Julius Pitgmanp and Charies H. Balley, to aportion the Missouri properties of the Gart- side estate awouy the heirs, This commissi sn has filled its report, and it bas been approved, setting apart portione of the property to the jespective heirs, with all of which they appear to be centented, as deeds from one to the other have been executed and the documents of title are to be delivered to the adjudged rightiul owners in a few days. As stated, the object was to divide the Mis- souri properties into six * equal parte, there beiag just that number of heirs. The Llinois properties, consisting of coal lands and town lots, embracing tue larger portion of Mur - phy sbor., are not included in this division, and it is said that the Gartside interests in lilinois are much more valuable than in this State. The lilhmois interests yet remain a bone of contention for the heirs to dispute about. To begin with, in the division of interests upon this side of the Misal-e:ppi River sach of the six heirs were allowed ‘to share and share allke in $100,000 worth of the Gartside Coal Co.'s stock and to take a sixth interest eaci, in all the stocks and bonds of the estate, said to have been appraised at about ball a million dollars.

Yesterday the water was sampled and was tound to be as pure and sweet as the day it was taken from its source.

By Telegraph to the POST-DISPATCH. . ATLANTA, Ga., July 18. HE Georgia Legislatur® is holding its first ses- sion in a new million dollar Capitol, with business enough ahead to keep it occupied un- til well into December. The history of these sessions is U form overreach their purpose. The Georgia Legislature of ante-war days was a well or- dered body, and its members, for the most part, had something better to do than spend- ing half the year at the State capital. The re- construction era of 1868, however, ushered in a legislature of adventurers, who fixed their per the surplus by remaining in perpetual session. SO scandalous was their con- duct that one of the _ cries under which the Democrats came into power in 1872 was for a reduction of the per diem and a limitation of the annual session. The re- sultof Democratic ascendency was crystal- lized by the State constitutional convention of 1877, which provided for biennial sessions of forty days duration. Gen. Robert Toombs, who was the leader of the convention, took great credit to himself for this provision, but he lived to see how ineffectual it was. The Legislature, which met in the fall of 1877 un- der the plausible excuse that the putting into motion of the machinery of a new constitu- tion required more time, held an aujourned session in the following summer, making the entirenumber of days spent more like 140 than forty. Thus it has continued ever since, the sessions not only being annual but their length being indefinitely extended. So far as Georgia is concerned, therefore, the experiment of bi- ennial sessions may be put down as a failure. FIGHTING RAILROAD COMBINATIONS. The present session has before it a bill—the Olive bill—which has already attracted gen- eral attention and which will be of special interest to Wall street. The bill provides for the prohibition of railroad consolidation within the State, annulling the charters of such roads as enter into such consolidations, and imposing heavy penalties on directories which, under any cover, become parties to such negotiations. The bill was occasioned by the movements of the West Point Ter- minal Co. and was introduced iu the Legisla- ture last fall as a slap in the face of President John H. Inman, who was making a somewhat ostentatious visit to Georgia at the time. The Georgia State Alliance of farmers has indorsed it, and the prejudices of the people are flatteredby it. Witnin the last few days, however, considerable opposition has sprung up against the bill as itis coming to be regarded as an anti-railroad building measure. Georgia is full of ambitious towns, which are afraid that adverse railroad legisia- tion will leave them in the woods. The rumor that the authorities of the National Alliance disapprove of the bill as being inimical to the interests of the farmers, also has its influence in changing publie opinion. Notwithstanding these influences it is prob- able that the bill will pass. EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES. There is a remarkable revival of interest in the question of public instruction. Until last year the educational system of Georgia wus a = scandal, deplored by all thoughtful cit- Zons. That Georgia should be pointed out as the banner illiterate State was not soothing to State pride. The present Legislature at its first session provided for a general increase inthe amount appropriated for school pur- poses 80 that within five years the system will beinshape to challenge criticism. Having thus provided satisfactorily for the building up of the common schools, the present ses- sion will take up the uestion of higher education. Hon. W. H. Felton, the famous ex- member of Congress, has before the body a measure for the liberal endowment of the State University, located at Athens, and for the establishment ineach Congressional district of branch col- leges of higher grade. The idea is to make the Athens institution a university in fact; while the ten Congressional district collezes would be also of high grade, the successful students graduating into the State University. As a companion measure, Hon. W. T. Atkin- don has a somewhat similar scheme, provid- ing forfemale education with the industrial feuturé made prominent. The women of the State haye taken the field for this measure and have called meetings throughout the State to indorse the scheme. The in- fluence of the Atlanta, ion has been thrown strongly in favor of these meas- ures, so that it may be assumed that the work of the present year will form anepoch in the ; THE STATE RAILROAD. The State of Georgia owns a rallroad—the to Chattanooga, 138 miles. The road was built forty years ago and penetrated an almost im — torest, giving the people of South eorgia and Carolina access to the great country north of the mountains. The under- taking was too extensive and perilous for pri- vate Capital and was therefore undertaken by the State, as a project made im- perative by public necessity. The undertaking has paid well, settling up North Georgia and developing Southern commerce. In one respect it was a failure—it was a bone of contention among the poll- ticians. The entire working force of the road was changed under each administration. Under Gov. Bullock it reached its worst con- dition of political rottenness, but it is also fair to add that under the same Governor the reinedy was found, It was leased to a com pany with Hon. Simon Cameron of Pennsy!- vania, Hon, Columbus Delano of Ohio and others, fora term of twenty years from 1871. This company selected Senator Joseph E. brown of Georgia as President, and ever since bas beén operated as a business enterprise. As the lease will expire before the next Legis- lature can assembie the disposition of the road will have to be settled by the body now in session. . there is a party in favor of selling the road. Their argument is that the proc would diem at $9, and who were willing to exhaust Clear off the State debt. Another party favors : {stars will ficker, and | eee at Hooley's Theater, Onicago.

HERE was the trish lord—at the very time when Iris was most patiently resigned never to see him more, never to think ot him as her husband again—reminding her of the first days of their love, and of their mutual confes- sion of it! Fear of her- self kept her behind the curtain; while m- terest in Lord Harry detained her at the win- dow in hiding. „ All well at Rathco?’’ he asked—mention- ing the name of the house in which Arthur was one of the guests. es, my lord. Mr. Mountjoy leaves us to- morrow. „Poes he mean to return to the farm?“ „Sorry I am to say it; he does mean that.“ „Has he fixed any time, Miles, for starting on his journey?“ Miles instituted a search through his pock- ets, and accompanied it by an explanation. Yes, indeed, Master Arthur had fixed a time; he had written a note to say so to Mistress Lewson, the housekeeper; he had said: Prop the note at the farm on your way to the village. And what might Miles want at the village, in the dark? Medicine, in a hurty, for one of his master’s horses that was sick and sinking. And, speaking ofthat, here, thank God, was the note! Iris, listening and watching alternately, saw to her surprise the note intended for Mrs. Lewson handed to Lord Harry. Am I ex- pected, he asked jocosely, to read writing without a light?““ Miles produced a small lantern which was strapped to his groom’s belt. over safe inthe dark,’’ hesaid as he raised the shade which guarded the light. The wild lord coolly opened the letter, and read the few careless words which it contained. To Mrs. Lewson—Dear old girl, expect me back to-morrow to dinner at 8 o’clock, Yours, ARTHUR.’’ There was a pause. Are there any strangers at Ratheo?“ Lord Harry asked. „Two new men,“ Miles replied, “at work in the grounds.“ There was another pause. How can I pro- tect him?“ the young lord said, partly to him - self, partly to Miles. He suspected the two new men—spies probably who knew of Ar- _thur’s proposed journey home, and who had already reported to their employers the hour at which he would set out. - | N Miles ventured to say a word: I hope vou won’t be angry with me, my lord——’’ ‘*Stuff and nonsense! Was I ever angry with you, when I was rich enough to keepa servant, and when you were the man?’’ The Irish groom answered in avoice that trembled with strong feeling. Tou were the best and kindest master that ever lived on this earth. I can’t see you putting your precious life in peril——’’ My precious life?’’ Lord Harry repeated lightly. ‘‘You’re thinking of Mr. Mountjoy, when you saythat. His life is worth saving. As for my life——’’ He ended the sentence by a whistle, as the best way he could hit on of expressing his contempt for his own exist- ence. My Lord! my Lord!’’ Miles persisted ; ‘‘the Invincibles are ey to doubt you. If any of them find you hanging about Mr. Mountjoy’s farm, they’ll try a shot at you first, and ask afterwards whether it was right to kill you or not.“ To hear this said—and said seriously—after the saving of him at the milestone, was a trial of her firmness which Iris was unable to re- sist. Love got the better of prudence. She —— back the window curtain. In another oment she would have added her persuasion to the servant’s warning, if Lord Harry him- self had not accidentally checked her bya proceeding, on his part, for which she was not prepared. ‘‘Show the light,“ he said; I'll write a line to Mr. Mountjoy.’’ He tore off the blank page from the note to the housekeeper, and wrote to Arthur, en- treating him to change the time of his de- parture from Rathco, and to tell no creature in the house, or out of the house, at what new hour he had arranged to go. ‘‘Saddie your horse yourself,“ the letter concluded. It was written in a feigned hand, without a signa- ture. ve that to Mr. Mountjoy,’’ Lord Harry said. It he asks who wrote it, don’t frighten him about me by telling the truth. Lie, Miles! Say you don’t know.“ He next returned the note for Mrs. Lewson. If she notices that it has been opened,’’ he resumed, ‘‘and asks who has done it, lie again. Good-night, Miles —and mind those dangerous places on your road home.“ The groom darkened his lantern, and the Wild lord was lost to view round the side of the house. Left by himself, Miles rapped at the door With the handle of his whip. ‘‘A letter from Mr. Arthur,’’ he ¢ iout. Mrs. Lewson at once took the note and examined it by the light of the candle on the hall table. Some body has been reading this!“ she exclaimed, stepping out to the groom, and showing him the totn envelope. Miles, promptly obeying his instructions, declared that he knew noth- ing about it, and rode away. Iris descended the stairs and joined Mrs. Lewson in the hal! before she had closed the door. The housekeeper at once produced Arthur’s letter. „It's on my mind, Miss, she said, “to write an answer and say something to Mr. Arthur whieh will persuade him to take care of himself on his way back tothe farm. The dificuity is, how am I to express it? You Would be doing a kind thing if you would give menu word of advice. Iris willingly complied. A second note from the anxious housekeeper might help the effect — the tew lines which Lord Harry had writ- en. Arthur’s letter informed Iris that he had ar- ranged to return at8o’clock. Lord Harry's question to the groom and the man’s mo gs 4 n- stantly recurred to her memory: Are there any strangers at Rathco?’’—‘*Two men at work in the grounds.’’ Arriving at the same Conclusion which had already occu to Lord Harry, Iris advised the housekeeper, _ in writing to Arthur, to entreat him to 3 the hour, secretly, at which 8 5 friend’s house on the next d “hu 2 roving of this idea, Mrs. * nto the parlor to write her letter.

No living creature arpeared; no sound of a movement disturbed the stillness ot the night. The discovery ot his absence, whieh she had not dared to hope for, was the cheer- ing discovery which she had now made. On her way back to the house she became conscious of the rashness of the act into which her own generous impulse had betrayea her. If she and Lord Harry had met, could she 3 = — + safely.

Would he not have been justified in conciud- ing that she had doned the errors and the vices of his life, and that he might, without : ea poe L remind her of their engagement and claim her hand in marriage? She trembied as she thought of the concessions which he might have wrung from her. Never more, she determined, ‘‘shall my own folly be an- swerabie for it if he and I meet again.’’ She had returned to Mrs. Lewson, and had read over the letter to Arthur, when the farm clock, striking the hour, reminded them that it ——_ time to retire. They slept badly that night. At 6 in the morning, one ofthe two labor- ers who bad remained faitnful to Arthur was sent away on horseback with the house- keeper’s reply, and with orders to walt for an answer. Allowing time for giving the horse a rest, the man might be expected to return before noon. XI. It wasafine sunshiny day; Mrs, Lewson’s spirits began to improve. I have always held the belief,’’ the worthy old woman con- fessed, ‘‘that bright weather brings good ruck —of course provided the day is not a Fri- day. Thisis Wednesday. Cheer up, Miss.’’ The messenger returned with good news. Mr. Arthur had been as merry as usual. He had made fun of another letter of good advice, received without a signature. But Mrs. Lewson must have her way,“ hesaid. ‘‘My love to the old dear —I' II start two hours later, and be back to dinner at 5. „Where did Mr. Arthur give you that mes - sage? Iris inquired. ‘*At the stables, Miss, while I was putting up the horse. The men about were ali on the broad grin when they heard Mr. Arthur’s mes- * . Still in a morbid state of mind, Iris silently regretted that the message had not been writ- ten, instead of being delivered by word of mouth. Here, again, she (like the wild lord) had been afraid of listeners. The hours wore slowly on until it was past 4 o' clock. Iris could endure the suspense no longer. It's a lovely afternoon, she said to Mrs. Lewson. ‘‘Letustake a walk along the road and meet Arthur. To this proposal the housekeeper readily agreed. It was nearly 5 o’clock when they reached a place at which aby-road branched off, through a wood, from the highway which they had hitherto followed. Mrs. Lewson found a seat on a felled tree. We had better not go any farther,’’ she said. Iris asked if there was any reason for this. There was an excellent reason. A few yards farther on, the high road had been diverted from the straight line (in the interest of a large agricultural village), and was then directed again into its former course. The by-road. through the wood served as a short cut for horsemen and pedes- trians from one divergent point to the other. It was nexttoa certainty that Arthur would return by the short cut. But if accident or caprice ledto his preferring the highway it was clearly necessary to wait for bim within view of both the roads. Too restiess to submit to a state of passive expectation, Iris grag to follow the bridai-path through the woods for a little and to return if she failed to see any- thing of Arthur. Lou are tired, she said kindly to her companion; pray don’t 6. 1 Lewson looked needlessly uneasy. Nou might lose yourself, Miss. Mind you keep to the path!’’ Ine followed the pleasant windings of the woouland track. In the hope of meeting Arthur sne considerably extended the length of her walk. The white line of the high road, as it passed the farther end of the wood, showed iteelf through the trees. She turned at once to rejoin Mrs. Lewson. On her way back she made a discovery. A ruin which she had not previously noticed showed itself among the trees on her left band. Her curiosity was excited ; she strayed aside to examine it more closely. The cruin- bling walis, as she approached them, looked like the remains of an ordinary dwelling- house. Age is essential to the picturesque effect of decay; a modern ruin is an unnatural and depressing object—and here the horrid was. 49 Ys she turned to retrace her steps to the There was the wild lord whom she h in: the master of NOTE OO ene imaater of her tate! the horse as it swerved at the sight of him.

One glance at the name engraved on it told him the terrible truth. His trembling hands lost their hold. The horse escaped; the words burst from his ips: Oh, God, they’ve killed him!’’ THE END OF THE PROLOGUS. THE STORY. FIRST PERIOD. CHAPTER I—THE SOUR FRENCH WII. HILE the line to be taken by the new rail- way between Culm and i , Everill was still under discussion the engin- oer caused some dit- „ ference of opinion among the moneyed ie men who were the first directors of the com- we: . pany, by asking if — — they proposed to in- clude among their stations the little old town of Honeybuzzard. For years past, commerce had declined and population had decreased in this ancient and idling at a halt u y Tr ‘distant tide. | ed ite ho hoped g that it would fetch. The practice fora directors 4 r ay, after a stormy meeting, decided uon ng (by means of a station) a last e ee of revival to the dyin town. The town had not vitality enough le to be grateful ; 9 railway stimulant produced no effect. Of his lleagues in Great Britain and the station-master at Honeybuzzard was the idlest man, and this, as he said to the unemployed porter, through no want of energy on his own part. Late on a rainy autumn oon, the slow train left one traveler at the étation. He got out of a frat-c Carriage ; he carried an um- brella anda traveling bag; and he asked his way to the best inn. he lon- master and the porter eompared notes. o 6f them said: ‘*Evidently a gentloman.’’ The other added: What can he want here?“ The stranger twice lost his way in the tor- tuous old streets of thé town before he reached the inn. On giving his orders, it ap- peared that he wanted three things. a private room, something to eat, and, while tbe din- — was being cooked, materials for writing a etter. Answering her daughter’s stairs, the landiady deacri nice-looking man, ing. ‘*Young, my — uestions down- her guest as a dressed in deep mourn- with beautiful dark brown hair and a graud beard and a sweet, sorrowful look. Ah, his eyes would tell any- body that his black clothes are not a mere sham. Whether married or single, of course Iean't say. But I noticed the name on his traveling bag. A distinguished name, in my opinion—Hugh Mountjoy. wonder what he’llorder to drink when he has his din- ner? Whata mercy it will be if we can get rid 92 another bottle of the sour French wine!“ The bell in the private room rang at that moment; and the landlady’s daughter, it is needless to say, took the op ortunity of form- ing her own opinion of Mr. Hugh Mountjoy. She returned with a letter in her hand, con- sumed by a vain longing for the advantages of gentle birta. Ah, mother, ifI was a young lady of the higher classes, I know whose wife I should like to be!’” Not particularly inter- ested in sentimental aspirations, the landlady asked to see Mr. Mountjoy’s letter. The mes- senger who delivered it was to wait for an answer. It was addressed to Miss Henley, care of Clarence Vimpany, Esq., Honeybuz- zard.’’ Urged by an excited imagination, the daughter longed to see Miss Henley. The mother was at a loss to understand why Mr. Mountjoy should have troubled himsolf to write the letter at all. It he knows the young lady who is staying at the doctor’s house, she said, why doesn’t he call on Miss Henley?’’ She handed the letter back to her daughter. ‘‘There! let the ostler take it; he’s got nothing to do- „No, mother. The oagtier’s dirty hands mustn’t touch it—I’li take the letter myself. Perbaps I may see Henley.’’ Such was the impression which Mr. Hugh Mountjoy had in- nocently produced op asensitive young per- son, condemned by destiny to the barren sphere of action afforded by a country inn! The landlady herself took the dinner up- stairs—a first course of mutton chops and potatoes; cooked to a degree of imperfection only attained in an English kitchen. The sour French wine was stillon the good woman’s mind. What would you choose to drink, sir?’’ she asked. Mr. Mountjoy seemed to feel no interest in what be might have to drink. We have some French wine, sir.“ „Thank you, ma’am; that will do.“ When the bell rang again, and the time came to produce the second course of cheese and 2 the landlady allowed the walter to take her place. Her experience of the farmers who frequented the inn, and who had in some few cases been induced to taste the wine, warned her to anticipate an outbreak of just anger from Mr. Meuntjoy. He, like the others, would probably ask what she „meant by poisoning him with such stuff as that?’’ On the retura of waiter, ghe put the question: Did the gentleman comp of the French wine?’’ He wants to see you about it, ma am. The landiady turned pale. The expression of Mr. Mountjoy’s indignation was evidently reserved for the mistress of the house. Did he swear,’’ she asked, when he tasted it?’’ Lord bless you, ma’am, no!

Was this extraordi- nary opinion of the wine sincere.

Continued in the next SUNDAY PoOst-DISPATCH.] KITE PHOTOGRAPHY. A Clever Invention by Which the Kite Is Again Made Useful. During the course of the year 1888 we an- nounced that a skillful amateur, Mr. Arthur Batut, had constructed at En- lure a kite provided with photo- graphic apparatus by means of which he had obtained some very interesting prelim- inary resulte. We encouraged the operator to persevere in his experiments, and are glad that we can now make known the important prosress that he has made, says La Nature. The engraving shows the exact arrangement of the photographic kite. The latter, which is lozenge- shaped, is provided with a long tail which gives it perfect stability in the air. The small camera. A, s fixed to the wooden rib of the kite by a triangular support, P. The photo- graphie apparatus is provided with a shutter which is actuated by means of a punk slow match, C, which sets fire to a thread when the combustion has proceeded as far as the upper — ofthe match. The string to which the ite is attached is connected with a trapeze, T, properly arranged, so that the solar rays can enter the objective freely. A registering aneroid barometer, B, is fixed to the upper part of the support, D, so that the operator may know the altitude to which the kite has risen above the «round. The barometer used by Mr. Batut is very ingenious. It constitutes a photo- graphic registering apparatus which operates at the same time that the camera does. It is inclosedin a light-proof box. An aperture, closed by a shutter, is un- covered through the burning of a match at the same time that the photographie apparatus operates. Atthe moment the aperture is un- covered, the luminous rays strike the dial and print the shadows of the two needles (mechan- See ay W Nose . QA A Photographic Kite. ism and index needles) upon a piece of sensi- tized paper with which the dial is provided. The shutter of the photographic apparatus is asimple ‘‘guillotine’’ witha square aper- ture. Tbe wood, which is very light, is actu- ated by two strong rubber bands, and its ex- tremity is covered with parchment,which, on entering the grooves, prevents all effects of rebounding. The catch of the shutter consists of a wooden lever fixed in the center by a screw. One end of this closes the groove through which the shutter is to pass. The other extremity is held by a thread which traverses one of the ends of @ punk slow match. Under this thread the operator places a folded strip of paper. When the fire of the match reaches and burns the thread, the lever, yielding to the thrust of the shutter, leaves the groove and the shutter drops. The paper falling toward the ground at the same time unfolds and announces to the operator that he can haul in the kite. Mr. Batut’s kite is eicht feet in length. The photographic apparatus weighs thirty-eight ounces,and the Steinheil objective with which it is provided is of four-inch focus, Charles Todd, To the Editor of the Sunday Post-Dispatch: The rapidly lessening number of those older citizens who stand as land marks to the younger generation has been still further di- minished by the death of Charies Todd. A resident of St. Louis for more than half a cen- tury, frequent and long absence in later years did not inthe slightest degree cool the af- fection he always cherished and wes always prompt to express for the home of his early manhood and of his manhood’s prime. He loved the city he had seen grow from a small town toagreat metropolis; was proud of her past and present, and confident of a yet more glorious future. Jealous of her honor and devoted to her interests, he was ever ready to defend the one and ald the other by word and deed. St. Louis has had citizens, perhaps, whose opportunities and resources have enabled them to do more for her; but never a citizen whose sympathies services were more cheerfully more completely at her command, from active business while comparatively young, content with the competency then acquired; and from that time until quite recently was an almost con- stant traveler.

The nead is now free, the hair dressed low, scarcely an aigrette of curle rising above the forehead; often fall at the back over the shoulders. was to the summer girl of 1888, the cato- gan braid is to her of 1889. The simple, loose plait looped low iu che neck and fas- tened with a ribbon or a single pin of silver or gold goes equally well withthe sailor hat on an outing or the skeleton of wires covered with puffs of tulle which constitutes the flower-laden chapeau, the hat of the after- noon. The four pretty bridesmaids who a fortnight ago assisted Miss Elizabeth Drexel to become Mrs. John Vinton Dahlgren illustrated very nicely both the July hat and the catogan braid. They wore short Empire dresses of white moire draped with wolte crepe de chine. Each piquant maiden hadalight — of loosely curled hair on her forehead, in spite of the oft-pronounced decree that there are to be no more bangs. The rest of the wavy mass was combed straight back, braided in along fluffy loop that touched the shoul- ders and thrust through with a golden dagger whose hilt was studded with géms. On this 1 , Was set felt of the style the lovely ard wraceful Hading left us, piled with long and heavy white ostrich plumes. The sailor hat we have always with us and an Olive-skinned maiden with wicked eres and winning dimples, at the Staten Island Athletic Club on regatta day, displayed ite new estate and powers. Her hair was left loose in the old- time popular fashion, its black masses drit- ing about her shoulders. A single creamy- yellow magnolia blossom in its setting of waxy leaves caught the flowing curls back from her face. The brim of the black chip sailor hat was rather narrow, and the crown, instead of being made of straw, was left open and filled in with loose folds of yellow crepe meeting in a round crepe rosette in the center. A black bird balanced beh ind, his tail and the tips of his spread wing pointing saucily for- ward. Black and yellow are the elub colors, and the hat was matched by afan of yellow ostrich feathers, on one plume of which perched a jetty- winged humming bird. Mrs. Langtry’s bats are among the objects of interest to Long Branch cottagers. She has taken the house of Miss Hattie Russell, the actress and a member of her troupe, and sat on its veranda a day ora two since in a white Directory gown. Thewhole front of the white silk underdress was covered with gold braid- ing. The coat was f fine white cashmere of the new pattern with revers turned back all the way about the neck and down the fronts, braided with gold and looking deliciously cool. A long scarf of white silk guaze was tied at the throatand the wide lace-trimmed ends filled the space between the coat fronts. The flat pockets were set very far back, adorned with large mother-of-pearl buttons and braided in gold. To complete this outfit was a tulle hat, frail asa butterfiy’s wing but uite as lovely. Broad-brimmed and flat, the ront was brought into a poke shape and the wire frame was covered with some four thicknesses of tulle, puffed fall on top and shirred —— about the face inside. Pond lilies carelessly twisted into a gariand by their long, brown stems formed the trimming, and over these waiked dragonflies, with shimmer- ing iridescent wings. July Varieties.

By Telegraph to the Posr-Disr Aron. NEW YORK, July 13.— Wall street, or at least that part of it which does not come under the head of the purely professional element, got another fit of the blues last week. The commission people firmly believed that the conferences of railroad men would mark the turning point in the prolonged period of dulness and uncertainty; in other words, that something would be done to bringin capitalists who for a long time have wisely rejected the bait offered them by the regulation cliques. The traders who rely solely upon their ability to catch the daily turns“ in the markets have had plenty to do and to talk about. When a gigantic railroad war is talked about one min- ute and an iron-clad agreement to maintain rates the nexterratic fluctuations are to be expected. This is just what the trading element likes most, but the more legitimate part of the fraternity—to wit, the firms and individuals who depend upon orders from far-secing — who buy when the improvement in the usiness of the country is almost certain to enbance the value of the great carriers—these require something more than the opera- tions of the Guulds, Cammacks and lesser lights. It seems to be useless to look for any permanent change in the situation until the ublic is convinced that railroad managers ave recovered their senses. The bears may goon making their periodical attacks upon this or that group of stocks, but ufter they go acertain length they might just as well try to make water run up bill as to at tempt any further manipuiation to get prices still lower. Investment headings do not come out and so after each grounding proc- essthere isthe inevitable rebound, the op- erations concerning only those immediately interested in making the fluctuations. If there was nota deeply rooted belief that the rail- roads cannot under any circumstances afford to engage in a disastrous war the cases would be different, but at present no one takes much stock in the talk of the alarmists. * * 7. The bulls are handicapped by the admitted dificult problems in the way of a lasting peace and fail to secure that outside support which is absolutely necessary to make a campaign for higher prices successful. f it could be shown that the men who control the destinies of the great systems were bent upon a policy of de- struction; that the tonnage for a year to come is to be away below the average or that rices were unduly inflated there might some reason to expect a collapse as 4 result of the paralleling of the old systems; but instead of such condi- tions itis well understood that a war now would deprive the projectors of the newly built roads of the only chance they have to secure a return of the money they have put into these schemes; that the harvests are promising to an almost unprecedented degree and that stockholders are vesting prominent bank- ers with power to prevent anything being done prejudicial to their interests. Even if managers are disposed to act in accordance with their speculations, the fact that they are being closely watched is calculated to make them hesitate before going to very great lengths. Viewing the situation fromevery standpoint this does not seem to be a good time to go „short. If there is no special iducement to buy operators should at ieast abstain from taking the bear side until it is seen that all efforts to harmonize the roads are futile. a’ eOe seecececess ozart S108: 458 | Simmwell...... „„ „„ eves 22 2 eeee 4 5 h av Fs — me NEEDS OF FOREST PARK. THE MASSES OF THE PEOPLE LEFT OUT OF CONSIDERATION ENTIRELY. The Absence of Shelter, Retreats, Conveni- ences, Transportation and Amusements Contrasted With the Well-Kept and Mag- nificent Driveways—The Necessities Em- phasized by Largely Increased Crowds. y 8 HE Far that 8. 4 Louls feels so much resorts should in- ¥ fee conveniences of the i/ masses. But it does * direction. No city in the world is better sup- plied with parks and beautiful suburban re- treats, and yet there is a deficiency. In all parts of the city are to be found neighborhood breathing spots, and in one—Lafayette Park— is found one of the most beautiful of such placesin the world. But the great ones, those which are known to the traveling and tourist public from one end of this country tothe other, are Forest Park, the Fair Grounds, Shaw’s Garden and Tower Grove. The latter is an ideal place for those who are able to reach it. It is one of the loveliest creations of nature and man’s handiwork to be found outside of imagination, but it is not for the common herd in the particular of providing a viace to which they may go half ofthe evenings out of a week. Shaw’s Garden isa resort which can hardly be imagined, but it is private in every sense of the word inasmuch as it is subject to individual rules and regulations, and the yisi- tor feels unpleasantly the restraint one ex- periences on private property. The Fair Gounds offer many attractions and a delight- ful treat, but when the masses come to take advantage of it they think ofthe quarter ad- mission and if no other place isin reach they more often come to the conclusion that a front window at home is desirable. Thus Forest Park only remains as a place of general resort inthe city. Ranking as THE FIFTH IN SIZE IN THE WORLD, its area being eclipsed only in Berlin, Paris, Dresden and Philadelphia, and being within convenient distance ofthickly populated por- tions of the city, St. Louis pride should make it such a resort that it would be open to no cause of complaint. That it does not can scarcely be harmonized with the enterprise shown in other public movements. And yet, Forest Park is a beautiful place. This one statement isallthatis to be urged against its being condemned as a resort for the people. It is a magnificent place, and hundreds ofthe people who drive through it nightly will wonder what ean be said of it in justice to the poorer classes that will be equal justice to the park. If they will stop to think a few minutes they will tind that columns could be written in pointing out the points in which it is deficientin providing a place of comfort and enjoyment. The trouble with Forest Park is not that it is too beautital. Itisnature itself, with well- kept lawns in many places, and with the best driveways that can be made and still avoid marring nature. It has many roman- tic spots, noohs that enliven the imagination and thrill the young lover to the point of bolling over with sentiment. It would be sac- rilege to destroy all this. The site is one of the best that could be found; nature could not have provided a better beginning fora public park. The land is just rolling enough to heighten the picturesque and give opportu- nity for effect. But who enjoys the beautiful, the romanticand the picturesque ordinarily? Certainly it is not the people at large. The only answer then is that it is those who THRONG THE SPLENDID DRIVEWAYS in equipages varying in description from the most elegant to the common family carryall. They can, and they do. in the course of an even- ing. cover every stretch of the roadways threading the immense grounds, Whirled rapidly around the curves by the brigbt green sward and under the thick foliage of the for- ests, they get the fresh country air and enjoy every feature of beauty ,evory suggestion of the romantic, and every effect of the picturesque to be seen. They see parts ofthe park never seen by any but the most untiring pedestrians. Over in the southwest, for instance, are some of the most beautiful scenes to be found in the grounds, and these, as is well known,are only accessible to those who are so fortunate as to be able to drive. The question has been asked complaining street car patrons Visiting the park whether those who can drive should be deprived of their pleasure simply because all may not drive. Most certainly not. There is enough and to spare for all in Forest Park if it is only utilized. It would bea great ‘pity to in any way interfere withthe progress of the long lines of vehiclies—and St. Louis has as great an array of fashionable ones as are to be seen in any city—or in any way lessen the pleasures ofthe people who are able to drive them, but in fully utilizing the park nothing of this sort would be necessary. The only thing to be asked is that the beauties of the park be partly UNFOLDED TO THE MASSES as they are fuliy exposed to the more ex- clusive circles. There are few who will not admit that this is not in perfect equity and who will not agree with the Post-DISPATCH that the city officials who are charged with the care and improvement of the public parks, should take prompt action la supplying what deficiences exist. There should be hearty ac- cord in this, particularly as the expenditure required would not be great in comparison to the benefits to be gained. In considering what should be done, and minute detail cannot be required at this time, one of the first objects should be to provide some means of conveyance through the grounds, or from one part of them to another. This could be done very easily, at the expense of a slight amount of encouragement and probably a short-termed franchise. This would enable gy se who now rarely see a quarter of amile beyond the Blair statue to penetrate the more secluded portions of the ark and to enjoy beauties of nature which Eney now do not dream of. It would also simply be in line with improvements in trans- ortation already made, and greater ones con- — Until recently the park has been unknown toa great many people who, owing to the extension of the Olive street cable line, now visit it several nights a week. Bot this line bas only opened up the way tothe park. Visitors are depos- ited two or three squares from the entrance and from there they must walk to any part of the ground they wish to see. The south- western section is out of the question. The restaurant is equally so. The rusticity of the western section is not to be thought at all. The result is that the estrian a the Blair statue, walks under the lroad bridge and crosses the unsightly and unro- mantic River Des Peres; then around and resting a few minutes on the „ or on a bench if they are not all occupied, cites a longing for something more. ready * * Smeg n ogee wet eas re. | ; .

If one comes wp Se only way is to get out of it as quickly as possibie, and by the first means that sug- gests. Ornamental structures of a charact to answer every requirement could be erec in convenient parts of the grounds at a very small cost and they would be found to be of much greater benefit than many other im- provements that are made. Suchasheiter ig required particularly near the entrance to the park, and the arrangements for the con- venience of visitors will not be complete until itis. At the same time it could be made highly ornamental, and without in the least detracting from the natural beanty of the sur- roundings. IN THE WAY OF AMUSEMENTS, also, there is room for advancement. No ro- sort of the description of Fo Park can be complete without the addition of a prominent amusement feature, such as is to be wade ina boat-house. There has long been an idea of this in this park, but no way of carrying it out has been suggested. There is one way, how- ever, which would be entirely feasible, and that is by joining the ponds now kept up and transforming them into 0 string of lakes. A beau- tiful rowing resort could thus be made, and withoutin any way injuring the appearance of the grounds or the roadways. A beat- house erected In the center of such astring of lakes would be a means of pleasure that would popularize the park and at the same time protect thé lawns from the usage they now receive. In connection with it tennis and croquet grounds could be maintained, and the games kept for hire for the convenience of visitors. This would all be a source of revenue that in a short time would go far toward paying the running ex- penses, or which would, for instance, maine . tain an adequate corps of park police. These suggestions, however, are only a few of the number that come up. The main thing now is that there are no shelters, no retreats, no conveniences and no amusements.

Tin-Horse Gamblers Must Get Another Out. fic if They Want to Run. Contrary to the expectations af those whe heard the arguments in the tin- horse gam- bling cases, Judge Withrow gave his opinion without any delay, in fact, he interrupted the argument to say that it was no use to carry it further. It will be remembered that Judge Withrow made an orderon John H. Overall, Acting President ofthe Police Board; Anton Huebler, Chief of Police, and Peter Joyce, Captain of Police, instructing them to turn over the tin horses to the Sheriff, sincea sul in replevin bad been begun. The authorities refused to turn the horses over and the gamblers asked that they be cited to appear and show cause why they should not be com- mitted for contempt. The authorities moved to dismiss the motion to commit and their motion was overruled. They then made their. return to the writ and stated that they took the property under a warrant issued by the Acting President of the Police Board; that is bad been turned over to the Court of Criminal Correction and that it was needed as evidence at the trial. The return was verified on oath, and the authorities held that that verification was conclusive, and that they should be dis- missed. The gamblers denied that the returg verified on oath was conclusive or that it even made out a prima facie case, and Judge With- row was about to lay the matter over unsil 4 Tuesday to hear arguments on that 2 % when the attorneys for the gamblers said th * they would lay it aside for a time and ue a the euffticiency Of the return. This they did and the arguments occu the on- tire afternoon. Finally Judge Withro said: 9 do not see the necess for any further delay in this matter. I w make an order dismissing the bill and vacating the order of delivery.’’ The attorneys for the blers w prised, and they fought for another day in court. They wanted to be heard on the ques- tion whether the return verified by oath was conclusive, whether it made apr case, or whether it called, as they . id, tor testimony. They also wanted te argue the question whet the * even though it was used a crim pure pose at the time it was taken, was apartofthecrime.

The first national fete under the Republic took place on June 30, 1878, as a commemora- tive date had not yet been fixed upon. Never did a public rejoicing better deserve the epi- thet pational. The unanimity with which the citizens—without distinction of class, fortune or opinion — decorated their houses proved that patriotism took prec- edence of i politics. From the hum- ble flag at 1 sou to the sumptuous standard with a fringe of gold, from the modest paper lantern to the dazzling gas jet, every sort of decorative device and luminous apparatus charmed the eyes of those who wit- nessec the eventfulday.

Probably no one, excepting the Treasurer and some few of the higher officers, knows what is in ite treasury, or what aid is extended to any members who may become entitled to its benefits. No one seems to care, and the council does as it pleases, or rather acts according to itsown judgment, without reporting details to the society at large. It was named, itis well known, aftera tribe of Indians, and its officers are all called by Indian titles, while its members are all ‘‘braves.’’ As was said, however, it was democratic in its inception, and almost immediately its members began taking an active part in poli- tics. Maintaining, as they always have,a meeting place forthe use of the society, it was natural for them to use that place for po- litical meetings, and thus sprang upa politi: cal organization, which took its name, not from the society, but from the hall where it met, and became known as the Tammapy Hall Democracy, It has sometimes been said, not out clearly the Bartnholdi Statue, a reduction exactly ina friendly spirit, that this branch of your New York Liberty, just set up on this of the Democratic party owes its same island.

Within its barred and grated doors, a terrible picture of buman misery framed in the iron casements will be presented. There will be seen the chaiued and shackled risoners—the white slaves of France suffer- ng tortures and awaiting ignominious deaths at the whims of adespot. Just beside the entrance, and in the sbadow of the tower to the left, there will be presented the throne, crown, guards and trappings of royalty, sug- gestively close to the terribie prison. On the throne will sitthe King, arrayed in his royal robes, compieting the picture of France of 100 — ago. The boom of cannon and mortar will be heard, clouds of smoke will envelop the grim structure, the throne and its royal occu- pant willby means of clever theatrical con- trivances sink out of sightof the audience.

All the trustees present and several of the jurymen stepped up to the Coroner's desk, with that disregard for formality which has always characterized this particular court, and remonstrated vigorously. They urged that it was an outrage to lock up aman who had been cleared by a jury. They pleaded that it would be a terrible injury to the man, and a terrlole blow at the institution itself. The Coroner arose as they came up and stood like a statute, listening in perfect silence till all had sald ali they had to say. Then, as im- passive as ever, he repeated: The prisoner stands committed,’’ and turned away without another word. No single quality could ever have won for Richard Croker the pre-eminence he enjoys, and it is doubtless owing largely to his politi- cal sagacity, political bonesty, great knowl. edge of individuals, and spotless personal integrity that he is what he is to-day, but if one qualification has contributed more than another to his success, it is probably this direct, downright strength of purpose, un- changeable by any outside influence. What such aman wuntsin this world is always his if he live long enough. Mr. Croker has been, since his term as Coroner, a Fire Commis- sioner, and is now the Chamberlain of the city, having held, I believe,no other public offices; but a man’s influence in Tammany Hall isnot dependent upon the holding of public office. This is simply shown by the sition of the man who stands nearest to Croker, who is consulted by him in all party matters of any considerable importance, in which a ripe judgment and thorough knowledge of prin- ciples and men are requisite; the man, more- over, who bas been Mayor Grant's chief ad- viser in the very weighty matters that have engaged his attention since his election; the man whose uoice is listened to in Tammany Hall as the voice of one buving suthority—W, Bourke ‘Cockran. Mr. Cockran has been counsel tothe Sheriff of New York for two terms, and he has served one term in Congress, but at present he holds no public office, and manifests no desire to hold any. Yet he is the real counsel of Tammany Hall, and is reiied upon : The French Shield. g blic. They have been specially cast for the ithe occasion, are rich and costly and set off ’ with a view to proportions and perspective. ; The handsome stage of the garden has been profusely decorated for the two days’ celebra- tion. * Dedge in the stage addresses and solos of the evening . will be given and on which the well-arranged tableaux of the evening fete will be presentod. | The capacity of the garden will be tested this evening.

Fro- mang, so that the late celebrants will not suf- fer any inconvenience. The Executive Committee which has di- rected the extensive arrangements for the fete is composed of the following gentlemen: Mr. Ed. Achard, President; r. Joseph ecgue, Vice-President; Mr. Eugene Grandjean, Treasurer; Mr. A. Laverdure, Secretary, and Messrs. Edouard Heyd, jClem- ent Cammin, Oharles Mesnier, E.

Behind him, at 9 o’clock, he will be able to witness a display of fireworks such as he has never before seen. Dancing will, of c urse, be kept up all day and all night in every quarter of Paris; and musicians will be in great demand for a whole week.

Stokes are credited by rumor with having a pull, but if this is true it is heid by constant in- triguing and wire pulling; they are not recog- nized factors inside the organization. The extent of the power held by the men mentioned as the representatives of Tammany Hall is just now very great. Not since the overthrow of Tweed has the party had such control of the city as it acquired at the begin- ning of Mayor Grant's term of office. lt is true that Mayor Edson was nominated for the mavoralty oY Tammany Hall, but it was in pursuance one of those compromises to which the organization has en com- pelied to resort in its struggle for power. He was not a Tammany man, and did nothing for the organization beyond making Mr. Croker Fire Commissioner. The election of 1888, how ever, was one of remarkable importance, in that the incoming Mayor was to heve the l- ing of many of the most important positions in the city government, which were to me vacant by the expiration of the terms of office of the incumbents, By winning the election, therefore, Tammeny was enabied,in the words of some disappoin politicians, to bulld a wall around the city and bar the gates.’’ There became vacant by limitation the offices of the Commissioner of Public Works, a Police Commissioner and the Corporation Counsel. Then the City Chamberiain resigned. The offices of Mayor, County Clerk, ister and Sheriff had all been captured by Tammany candidates at the election, and Mayor Grant set about filling the vacancies mentioned and many minor ones with other Tammany men. — — a all. e Vt a 10 : = Seo S . — * : 4 S Ril aa Zz ths a 7, 140 — — — essrs. .

It was on that day that the first ‘‘Fourteenth of July’’ an- nhiversary was celebrated in the Champ- de-Mars, where the Exposition now holds its assizes; that the fete of the Fed- eration was held in 1790, and that all classes, high end low, labored with pick and spade to erect the Altar of Country. The French, therefore, rightly regard the at- teck on the Bastile as the turning point in their history, and the birthday of the Re- public. For twelve years past the day has been kept in a manner worthy of the event which it commemorates, The l4th of July, will, now ever, be something more this year than an ordinary national fete. Its centennial character] gives to it greater luster. The splendors of the great orld’s Fair on the Champ-de-Mars lend to it additional interest. And although that relatively small pulation which selt-styles itself ‘‘ All Paris’ may still consider it the proper thing to go out of town the evening before the ‘‘Fourteenth,’’ the enormous influx of foreigners during the last few weeks will more than compensate for past and present absentees. he general programme of the forthcoming kote is drawn up by the Commission of Fetes, advances and tenders her flowersto America, and so alternately the little ones present their flowers to the two sisters, near whom the American eagle flaps his wings with joy. Appropriate accompanying music will make this an exceedingly pretty scene.

Next willfollow the tableau of the Fitfel Tower, the coming glory of the Iron Age. From its * a revolving lantern of great brilliancy will flash the colors of the Repub- lic over the audience in rapid succession, 1 an effect which must be seen to appreciated. This tower stands in the back of the stage and is found rearing heaven- ward after the crumbling Bastile and the tableaux of the sister Repubiics have been withdrawn. This will complete the series of tableaux, which will be divided into three parts, showing despotism, or France before 1789, the overthrow of monarchy and the apotheosis. THE HOTEL-DE-VILLE, of which commission M. Alphand, the veteran ©agineer, who has done so much to beautify this city, is president, It was first intended to circumscribe the fete within the somewhat narrow limite of the Place de la Concorde and the Bois de Boulogne.

That Shakspeare is incomparably greater than Cor- mellle, and Racine than Goethe, and Schiller than Dante, and Petrarch than Camoens and _ Cervantesisafact which is justly taken for granted by Englisnmen and isseldom disput- ed by scholars of any nationality. But that, taken aa a whole, English litera- ture of the present day is of any or unusual excellence seems to me a proposition which cannot for a moment be sustained with any accuracy. It is, beyond all, lacking in those artistic qualities, those _ qualities of style which constitute the especial literary excellence of literature, and for which French literature is at all times conspicuous. Style seems by the English writer to be con- ' sidered a thing with which he has nothing to do. In a nation which had consciousness of style the grotesque, unpolished, and often Darbarous diction of Carlyle and Dickens would never have been allowed to disfigure their talent, because, before they would have addressed a lettered audience, they would nave studied the art of letters. But it is not only defects of style which injure English literature; it is a want of knowledge ofthe world, a puritanism, an hypocrisy, a which lie like lead upon it, and check full development, and keep it in swaddling-clothes iilfitting manhood. There are conventional treatments of certain sub- jects which are imposed on the English writer, and which at once destroy in his work natural, original, and virile handling. The consequent EMASCULATION OF ENGLISH LITERATURE, especially of English fiction, has had depior- able results. 2 2 7 ae as SSO ies | 3 — 5 — ö Without a liberty such as is wholly denied to . English writers in treating of the relations of the sexes, it is impossible for those relations to be representea with any accuracy or pro- fundity. The English writer has to pretend that the sole relations known to him between the sexes are those comprised within the limits of the tennis net at one end and the altar rails at the other, and the result is that his delineations of the passions are as feeble as would be a pencil sketch ~ 4. school girl of the Wounded Love of the Vatican. In default he ts driven to find the interest of his narrative in its machinery, whetber of police pursuits of criminals, sportsmen’s pursuits of elepbants, shipwrecks of vessels, or commer- failures, the frauds of insurance com- les or the semination of watered Social- m. The one supreme interest of romance, the interest of the conflict of the passions, is d to, and by, him. In actual life the English race is as a whole violently sensual, but in its fiction it is invariably represented as — and limp and silly in all its sexual rela- tions. There is a story now in course of issue by a popular English novelist in which the hero, represented as warmly in love, marries his lady at a registrar office and with scarcely any attempt at detaining or accompanying her ,aliows her to return to her family by an early train the same merning, continues calmly to correspond with her and hears, incidentally, several weeks after froma third person that she has disappeared; where, no one has any dea! It would be impossibie to present such a lover as this toa French or Italian public; he would damn the book hopelessly. That Mr. Black can depict this frigid young geutleman as acting quite naturally, and that the British public can ac- cept him with no sense of his invertebrate flaccidity, prove to what fatal depths of luke- warm incipidity love, as painted by THE MODERN ENGLISH NOVELIST, HAS SUNK. In another story of Mr. Black’s, lately isgped, the only form of love-making permitted to the wooer isa mild statement that he means to christen a boat by a female name; asingularly veiled and indirect form of homage which yet, we are told, makes his fair one cast her eyes down and blush. In a recently published novel, which enjoyed immense popularity among the less cultured classes of Great Britain, the hero is depicted as the object of adoration by two native prin- cesses of Central Africa, who are in appear- ance and conduct exactly like two rivai En- giish milliners or dressmakers; and even in these barbaric wilds, where, if anywhere, it would be supposed that nature might have had her own way, thie admirabie hero conducts his courtship precisely as though he were wooing a dean’s daughter in an En- ish Cathedral close, and even drags in the nglish marriage service into a heathen temple. Nothing more comical, more silly, more grotesque could be imagined; the prudery, the bathos, the incongruity, the pasteboard inanity of the personages are in conceivable; yet the British public, as a whole, never perceived this, and were never even faintly conscious of its supreme ab- surdity. Contrast to this the treatment of a similar situation in the Marriage de Loti,’’ all the marvelous insight into the untrammeled female nature, All the exquisite delineation of — 2 — 1 1 us the warm 0 opic seas; all the inevitable differences between the ics over an English ing into ine hears of Africa the an | HE TWADDLE OF LITTLE PEDLINGTON.

On the other hand, let the English novelist wander as he will, or depict as he will, he con- veys nothing, because he has received noth- ing. His native princesses of Africa are young women of Kensington, his scenery isa pasteboard and distemper decar du theater, and his moral and mental atmosphere remains that of Bayswater or Norwood, though his corporeal presence, or that of his hero or heroine lie in the temples of pre-historic lands, or the labyrinths of virgin and mystical forests. But it may be presumed that his public does not perceive this, is not sufficientiy artistic itself to be conscious of this, since itis notjntolerant of these grave laune, these painful absurdities. THE ENGLISHMAN TAKES FLANNELS, tinned meats and bitter beer to the tropics and the orient. It suits him exactly to have the moral attitudes and the neat convention- alities of his own social life transplanted by his novelist into Ethiopia or Dahomey. He does not perceive the incongruities in the novel because he does not perceive similar ones in himself. It has been said by an intelligent student of the buman mind that genius is the re of that mind to association and impression developed to an abnormal degree. The ordinary observer only sees some scentiess yellow flowers nod- ding in the grass; the poet sees the dance of daffodils which sets all his own pulses danc- ing. The ordinary passer-by sees a cab-horse fall, and, ifhe regard it at all, calls a police- man; the man of genius sees in the piteous spectacie a whole epitome of the mysterious brutality of creation, of the cruel uselessness of suffering, ofthe pitiful surrendering of the weak to the strong, and pours out strophes which sting and thrill mankind into a mo- mentary sense of its own vile injus- tice. The cheap-tripper, with a cheap gu in his murderous bands, beholds in the pufin or the curlew only a stupid beast to be shot at; Swinburne watches the flight of the seagull, winged and joyous goa of the air, and singsof it until whomsoever reads sees the flash of the silvered pinions, smelis the keen salt scent of the waves, feels the buoy- ant, joyous sweep of the north wind over the foam, and realizes the whole mystery of 1 and ot joy incarnated in the ocean rd. It is this susceptibility which, singularly enough, has been always so conspicuous in English poets, but in English novelists nas been of other years often iacking, and seems to be of recent years almost entirely extinct. Yet it is vitaliy necessary to the novelist, as to the poet, if he is to be anything beyonda mere conductor of EPHEMERAL AND SENSATIONAL inartistic fiction. Were the English public more cultured and less conventional it would pay no heed to those writers who were with- out it; but, as it is, this public is in itself too inartistic to be capable of distinguishing good work irom bad. In literature it sees no su- periority inthefresco to the coarseness of a chromo-lithograph. Of the two it may be said to prefer the chromo-lithograph. Natural loves and ery som the supreme kingdom of romance, have by the hypocritical distortion of judgment commonto the English people, been considered and characterized as abominabie sins. The result has been that even the greatest English novel- ists have had to efface all color from their treatment of the passions, and have indeed been coméiled to ignore passion altogether, forit.isa warm and wilful thing, and will not fit easily into the cramped cloth- ing ot tue prude and of the preacher. aA re- cent English critic, in writing of Daudet, alleges that the type depicted in Daudet’s ‘*Sappho’’ is false and frighttul. Frightful it may be, but false itis not; and the French- man’s theory that corruption is very com- mon, is much more nearly the truth than the Englishman’s make-believe that an insipid and demure virtue characterises the whole of humanity; virtue, thatis, inthe English in- terpretation of the word, which means that fraud, forgery, arson, murder, are al! venial delinguencies, but any thrill of what he calis ‘‘unlawiul’’ love, is beyond all redemption damnable. This odd theory has created a fiction as hol- low and as untrue as itself. In no English novel is there any attempt to portray the relations of men and women as they are. Being unable or FORBIDDEN TO USE these—the deepest, strongest, and moat in- teresting motives for action and feeling, he is therefore driven to find substitutesin the more vulgar machinery of movement, and being forced to renounce all accurate analysis of character and portrayalof the passions, he is compelled to confine himseif to the out- side of life and tothe action of dramas from which the passions are excluded. There is in England an unspoken but gen- eral contempt for the novel, which, joined to other causes, has been the reason why a style 80 inelegant, a composition so slipsnod, a treatment so inartistic have been allowed to be thought good enough for fiction. ‘‘Any- thing will do fora story’’ isthe English idea -an idea that is entirely incorrect, for a great and even a good nove! demands qualities in its structure not inferior to those demanded by the highest poetry or finest history. of which the most vitally necessary are a rich imagination, a delicate perception, a wide knowledge of the worid, an accurate power of analysis and a fine sense of art and nature. The manner in which novels are read in England would discourage a Le 2 or a Fielding. Cursorily glanced at, mixed up with a score of others in the memory of the reader, as in the library box which con- veysthem from bouse to house, seldom or never bought, seldom or never quoted after the season of its first appearance, skimmed in a railway carriage or yawned over in a club- room, the fate of an English novel is not digni- fied and the sense that, with afew exceptions, the novel is considered in England as so much short-lived rubbish is not the public estimate ofit which would stimulate to great things those who regard public opinion. Happily the novelist writes best, as the painter paints best, when he utterly disregards this opinion. In France a novel is regarded as a work of art, and the cleverest of men deem it as worthy their observation, analysis and judg- ment as any drama, poem, treatise or history. It is bought by the thousands and tens of thousands if it obtain success at all, and the style, the treatment, thé characters, all receive that delicate discrimination, that attentive study, which is the only true homage worth recording. The result is that even an inferior novel in France is rarely without some exceliencies of style and construction. In England even a good novel, so far as there is such a thing, is USUALLY DISFIGURED by grave faults of composition, unstudied and inartistic construction, anda weak or labored end. Harmony is the greatest beauty of a novel, as of a painting or a statue, but har- mony is wholly neglected in English fiction. There should beacertain sense given to the reader, as the novel is perused, that all which bappens in the novel did happen, must have happened, and could not have happened in any other way. The close should come out of the commencement as imperceptibly, but as iney- swag? Le as the moth out of the chrysalis. But. the English novelist of the present age has no — emg of, and he gives no attention to his; his incidents are tossed together like the contents ofa lucky bag, and little heed is for the re he wrote the and 5 ae A Over. is not the spirit in whi of beauty or value are 4 ＋ W To the novelist u ai is light or serious, grave or gay.

This is a cook-book way of treating lit- erature, butthe best recipe will not always enable the writer to make a good book. Even a good recipe used with judgment may tall. After enumerating all the possible methods and canons and rules one may clearly see that at best they are only tricks of the trade. The personal equation’’ settles it after all, and the best ‘work ig that which usually grows—grows with- out conscious direction in the mind of the author. It is not in the dexterity with which a novelist handles the tools of his craft nor the skill of his literary workmanship that determines the value of his work. Many authors having the best intellectual equip- ment, yet tall to give their books the desira- ble quality for which all artists strive. They may produce models of literary form or style and their books may be sought after by students and scholars, or they may construct a plot that is the marvel of the reading world and furnish apprentices a model which shall be their envy and despair. These are literary virtues and savor of the library; but men for the most part are not interested in libraries, and have little faith in the scholar’s work. The virtues of the scholar, the literary virtues, are intellectus! kickshaws often of gracious and delicate flavors, but they are notthe virtues that keep the world going and sustainthe social diges- tive apparatus in a healthy condition, There is more worth in an hour’s give and take in the battle of life than in a year’s practice at the intellectual dissecting table. People do not buy fiction for theories. What they seek in fiction is life—a more satisfactory or better ordered life than their own. It is not an enumeration of qualities generalized into a character that pleases the healthy reader. Analysis is a useful process, but the process should be carried on in the author’s workshop and then only to clarify his perceptions of life and moderate the excesses of his imagina- tion. A bundle of attributes is not a man and the reader will not be beguiled into accepting it as such. NOR WILL OBSERVATION added to analysis be of much more use. Ob- servation canoniy bring the data into con- sciousness. Until they are organized by sym- pathy they have no power over us. The mere observer sees everything in detail. Motives appear to him one by one, but all his observa- tion will not teach him how to co-ordinate motives and discern character. He may learn men, but be will never know man, human nature and its infinite capabilities. All this amounts to saving that fiction is a fine art. Although the truth is pretty well recognized now, it is only recently that fiction has been assigned a place as a younger sister to painting and scuipture. Nobody would have thought of, comparing Richardson and Raphael as ‘members of a common call- ing, and had the comparison been made no one would have stared more than Richarda- son himself. The novelist wrote stories to make the people laugh or weep, as the fiddler fiddled to make the people dance. It is not likely that either the novelist or the fidaler had any conception of the divinity that lay lurking in his art waiting forthe tonch of genius, and as was probablythe case with Shakspeare, did not recognize the divinity when it did appear. Art is for the people, not for the connoisseur or the dilettante. The multitude crave it in one form or another. The Greek had his statue, the Italian his painting and the mod- ern ofalinations his novel. The pulsations of the people's life are seen in the novel and through it, as through an occulist’s opthal- moscope, must we look if we would see the brain of civilization, if we would anatomize the soul of modern life. It is so distinctive- ly the expression of modern life and ideas that it may be conceded without question to rank as the predominant art-form ofthe cen- tury, the exudation, one may say, of the vi- tality of the race. All work that is truly 1 ~ tg te from the inner life of the people. hat the heart ofapeople is must appear in its manifesta- tions, and so it is that a nation’s life is most truly depicted, not in the chronicle of events, but in its art form. Painting, sculpture, the drama and the forms of social life are em bodied in institutions and law. Each epoch has its peculiar form in which its essential being is lodged, and by meansof which its essential nature can be ascertained. Greece is known rather by Phidias than by its poli- ticians; its history is written in its sculpture. The cathedral builders of the middle ages ure the historians of their times, and though their names have perished, THEIR WORKS BURVIVE, the enduring record of the life and thought of their time. By these forme, silent, but speak- inga language that never suffered from a confusion of tongues, the dead spveakto us and rule us witha kindly sway. If we would open up communication with the dead we must study them in the works wherein they put their hearts. In what form shall we be studied? There will be ne scarcity of records for the use of that ubiquitous traveler from New Zealand when he shall study ancient life in England and America during the latter balf of the nineteenth century. He will be puzzled by the multiplicity and diverse character of the records, He will be put to it to select from the mass of testimony that which is truiv significant, that which is relevant, that which may be called characteristic of the age. But in one form he will see us as we are. The art of fiction willsuppiy him with abundant hints whereby he — 4 at the truth about us. We are a novel- reading people; we are interested in all sorts and conditions of men; we are educated and amused by the novelist. An idea just arrived on the planet will cloth itself in this form if it would find speedy ac- ceptance, and he is a wise reformer who throws bis truth into fiction and insinuates it into minds that would otherwise reject it with abhorence. An influence so far-reaching and 80 potent for good or evil deserves attention as a plant striking ite roots deep into the so- cial soi], agrowth from which we may judge concerning the possibilities of future intel- lectual and moral development. A novel is a picture of life in action, in psychology. Man and hie relations are the subject of the novelist’s art. Not man as he ought to be, nor yet man as we would wish him to be.

Between the two extremes life is seen—the follies of mankind held up for laughter by the pen of satire, the corruption exposed by that of invective. But satire is sometimes mixed with malice and invective with hate. Art, which covets truth, and niy, has no opinions, and therefore no rancor. How shall these many phases of life be presented in fiction? Shall the comic be presented, as they are telling their own story and pointing their own moral,or shall they be covered ‘with a coating of homiletic varnish? Shall the \graver situations Involving sorrow and toil and tragic life—shall they de per- ‘mitted to move oar pity and indignation by their own pathos, or shall the mural- ist deface the work of beauty with nis own refiections—re fiections perhaps of questionable taste and unsound morality? The best satire in the world is the spectacle of a foolish person en- tangled in the meshes of his own folly; the best sermon is the sight of'a perverse man set- ting at defiance or ignoring the fundamental law of his being and involving bimself and his in ruin, The true literary artist will not mis- take his vocation; it is to observe and exhibit mental states, to record the throbbings of the overstrained heart, to note the abberations of the intellect and communicate to us his impressions as he watches the lights and shadows chase each other across the disc of the human soul. If he loves his art he will take more pride in the accuracy of his psy- chologic observations and the orderly setting forth of the essential phases of human nature in its complex relations than in the lesson his work conveys. It his art is true, that is if it isart, the truth will be absorbed with no other aid than the life-like warmth diffused by the work itself. A novel that is not true will be found out soon enough and be promptly forgotten, so that a bad novel can do little harm, exceptto him who wastes his time in its manufacture. Book Notes and Gossip. Miss Blanche Willis Howard writes from Germany that she has on her conscience a novelette and a story for boys. 5 Senor Zorrilla, the leading Spanish poet, was crowned poet laureate in the Alhambra Palace at Granada a fortnight ago in the pres- ence of many ewinent members of learned so- cieties and a vast concourse of travelers from various parts of Spain. Zorrilla is not related to the famous revolutionist of the same name. He has a classical style and many of his writ- ings relate to historical events. The general subject of George Meredith’s — novel is said to be the romance of journal- sm. . The demand for Mrs. Burnett’s charming love-story, ‘‘Vagabondia,’’ was so great as to exhaust three editions of the book in paper covers within ten days after publication. The Dante collection in the National Central Library of Florence has of late been much augmented. It now embraces no fewer than 420 editions of the Divina Commedia.’’ Of these 323 are in Italian, 33 in French, 31 in German, 10 in English, 9 in Latin, ö in Dutch, and 9 in other tongues. Among the latest ac- cessions are a Swedish version of the first seven cantos of the Interno, and a Bo- hemian version of the entire poem—the only com plete one in that language. Mrs. Carter of Chicago. whom E. G. Gilmore is to foist on the stage, is said by some to be the physical prototype of ‘‘Grisette,’’ the novel with which Lew Rosen recently snocked New York. Grisette falls in love witha song and dance map and goes througha most re- markable series of adventures. Mr. Andrew Carnegie admits that he is writ- ing his memoirs, but they are, he says, in- tended for posthumous publication. Many laughed when Mr. Carnegie published his ‘*‘Triumphant Democracy, and only the most meagre success was granted the k. Yet nearly 20,000 copies of the work have been sola up to date in America alone, to say noth- ing of the large Englisia editions. „Here and There in New England and Can- ada, is the title of three excellent little books published by the Boston & Maine R.

CUSTOM HOUSE + 8:35 pm +t 6:40 am * 3 » yALUABLE SUGGESTIONS ON AN INTRICATE MATTER. : Self- Measurement Blanke That May Be [sed by Any One—Dress- Making Greatly simplified — The Measurements That Must Be Taken—No Reason Why' All should Not Fit Welt. s there are no two things alike in the world, there are cer- tainly no two female figures that are just the same. It is rather surprising, therefore, that the manufactur- ing of ladies’ outer garments bas attained such a point that so many figures can be perfectly fitted, says the Cloak, Suit and Dress Review. Outside of the figures which run along in general lines and come under the head of a &, 36, 88, etc., every cloak man has experience with specials, those whom it is hard to fit, and for whom no provision can be made in a general stock. For these special garments must be made, and this branch is aconsiderable teature in almost every house. Manufacturers are not particu- larly fond of these orders, but are compelied to look upon them as a necessary evil. In order to lessen the difficulties in the way of fitting them and to insure a «ood fit, and thus avoid baving them returned, it is of the ut- most importance to all concerned that a cor- rect measure be taken. How-to take a cor- rect measure is, therefore, a pertinent sub- ject. Many firms get up their own self-meas- urement blanks. We have before us a num- per of these which we present as illustrating the best ideas obtainable: ,* 1 Mi ö 6 — ee ee ee 1 | 4 * Front. 1 tol, around neck; 2 to 2, around bust under arms; 8 to 8, around valst; (to 4, around bips;5 to 5, around skirt (sweep of dress); 2 to li, over front of bust.

Back. 11 to 12, across the back; 18 to 16, length of waist; 17 to 17, around the waist; 20 to 2, around the dress skirt atthe numberof inches, measured trom the neckband, that sacque is desired; 21 to 21, around bust and back over arms. Length of sacque. Accurate mess- urements should be accompanied by a full de- scription of the individual measured. This is essential, for itisa fact thatby comparing measurements taken by two different persons the results will not always be the same, par- ticularly should any peculiarities of the figure be given. Following is a blank furnished by a Toledo firm, which we Have heard highly com- mended. It is not Ilustrated by cuts, but seems sufficiently elear to afford the fullest information: Bust—Measure under arm, over shoulder blades, and fullest part of bust. Waist. Hips (6 inches below waist). Length of waist. Length of garment. Length under arm to waist. Width of back. ront width across fullest part of buat. Front length—from neck to itullest part of bust. Front length—neok on to waist, and length of garment infront. In- side sleeve length. Arm size. Around muscle. Around neck for collar. Measure should be carefully taken with a correct tape measure, and following questions answered: If person bas high shoulders; if person has straight shoulders; if person has sloping shoulders; if person stands erect; if person stoops forward; if person has large hips; if person is large over stomach; if per- son wears large or small, or no drapery at all: weight; it for miss or child give age. Do not be misied in taking measurements by the eut of the customer's dress. SOCIETY GOSSIP. Mrs. Brennan returned on Friday from De- troit. Mrs. Douglas and family leave soon for Rye Beach.

PRE OSAGE INDIANS THE RICHEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. The New Commissioner, Morgan—Exit Oberly—Problems to Be Solved—Shali Indians Have Sectarian Schools?—The Tramps and Dudes of the Reservation— Indians Worth $15,000 Apiece—The Osage Suppliant. Special Correspondence of SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. WaSHINGTON, D. C., July 12. OST of our readers will be surprised to know that the Osage tribe of In- dians is far the richest nation in the world. The Osages are five times as rich us the average of Americans, ten times as rich as “the average of Englishmen, and the French and Italians are pau- pers in compari- . son. There are among the Osages no penniless people and none in want except that insatiable want that always wants more. On recently meeting a Senator who was un- expectedly dropped at the last home election, and who, it was well known, had lost his law practice during the twelve years’ service here, I asked him what he was going todo now. **Well,’’ he said, ‘‘Idon’t know exactly, but lam working up heme that Iam sure wil] pay if I can feteb it. It involves a change of occupation, and ‘even of residence, but it promises big results. I may slip up, though.’’ This elaborate and confidential utterance excited friendly interest, and I asked, hes- itatingly, ifthere was room for any more on the ground floor, and if he was letting his friends know what the riffle was. „Room enough, he answered, medita- tively, but I am not certain that I can get + myself. The fact is, lam trying to induce th Osage Indians to adopt me as a son. LUCKY, indeed, it is to be the son of the Osages— no joke about that—for the poorest baby that ‘‘first opens his eye through askylightdim on the light of the sky’’ is worth thousands of dollars at birth, and is as lucky as Miss Kilmansegg, Of whom, accoraing to poets’ wont, Plutus, as sponsor, stood at the font, And Midas rocked the cradle, —4 the slightly paraphrased Miss McBride, who —slept in a cradle of gold With Fortunatus to rock it. Before speaking more specifically of this opulent and pampered tribe, let us consider the present attitude of the Indians to the Government. Our copper-colored orphans have changed their great and good step-father. Indian Commissioner Oberly goes out of of- fice to-day and Indian Commissioner Morgan comes in. Gen. Thomas J. Morgan is said to be a good man. @ was a brave soldier. He is an edu- cator. e has strong philanthropic Rhode Island intuitions, which have taken him re- atedly to the Mohawk Indian Conference in ew York, where his speech and demeanor ingratiated him to the favor of the best and most honest friends of the aboriginal frag- ment on our frontier. It should be added that the official bearing of Commissioner Oberly hus made him very solid with the same people, and that his re- moval to give place to another good man who lacks official experience isthe theme of much discussion, Democrats and civil-service mug- wumps alleging that this well-enough ought to have the proverbial letting alone, and the President assuming, as Mr. Cleveland as- sumed, that his Indian policy could bast be interpreted by one of his own party. Either conclusion is right, according to the point of view, and, as the profound Bunsby remarked, „the bearin’s of this obserwation lays in the application on it.’’ THE OS8AGES8 always keep a top eye open forthe intentions ofthe greatand good stepfather at Washington and this benign relative for the next four ears will have trian«ular personification in ident Harrison,Secretary Noble and Com- missioner Morgan. What the Osages want to know of him especially is whether he will let them have any more money. What they 3 want is $60,000 for a Catholic school and $60,000 for a Methodist school. The local council has voted these two appropriations, but Uncle Sam is their banker, and whether they get the money for these purposes depends on his Oashier, Har- on. The whole Osage Nation consists of just 1.501 persons, and the number of children of school age is about 400. But they already have two schools, supported by a magnificent school fund of $125,000, yielding. regular annual interest of $6,000, or $15 for each gchoolabie child—a — tund than any other community in the world. Soit may possibly be thought by some that $120,000 more, en- tailing annual appropriations for sectarian „ are not the nature of indispen- Let us see what is the actual wealth of the There are 1,501 of them according to last year’s census. They have in the United States Treasury $7, 708 ot their own money, drawing 5 per cen nterest. This amounts to a capital of $5,172 apiece for the whole nation—men, women and children! But besides this they bave 1,470,000 a of land—egual to just about a thousand ac ce.

Everybody has a chance. There are no monopolies. There are no greedy millionaires. There are no ‘‘soulless corporations.’’ There are no „industrial slaves. Everybody has ali the land he wants, and the land pays all the taxes. Every baby has a silver rattic and is fed on golden syrup. Here are all the elements of Socialistic rogress in the virgin territory just south of ansas. There is no grinding in the awful mill of competition. It is the paradise of Powderly—the heaven of Henry George. Great things were to be looked for—irom the Social- * olnt ot view. e > What has happened? Why, THE WHOLE TRIBE has retrograded ever since a big sale of wild land made it rich. Under plenty, the popula- tion steadily diminishes: The rich Osages are running out. There were seventeen deaths last year and only three births. Only one baby bas been born during the six months of this year as far as reported, and that is only about one-fifth pure blood. The Osages refuse to be civilized, dress mostly in blankets, breech-ciouts and mocca- sins, and are a lazy, ignorant, worthless frag- mentof the buman race. They are mostly Secretary Vilas and the Brave. drunken when they can get rum. They will not work, but when they have any work that the squaws don’t understand,they hire white mentodoit. The Governmenttries to train the young without any good resuits. The agent reports: „As to the majority of the Indians, their habits are indolent. They are wedded to their Indian ways and customs, without, appar- ently, a thought of anything that will improve them. In my opinion, upto the present time, the young men of the Osage tribe returning from the training schools make the meanest Indians, the best dancers, and promote more deviltry than the young men remaining here without the advantage of a training school education.’’ The School Superintendent reports to the Commissioner: „The Osage Indians are very averse to sending their children to any school, and when they do send them their minds are very productive inthe invention of plausible ex- cuses to get them home. The fact is that the Osage tribe is a com- munity of copper colored loafers of profligate, dissolute, lazy, filthy nabobs. They are afflicted with all sorts of expensive and tuxu- rious diseases. They do nothing to better their condition except constantly tease the Government for more and more money. It is the old story, known long before Karl Marx dreamt his futile and pre- posterous dreams: That where land is beld in common, nobody ever wants any of it; that where everybody has everything nobody ever has anything, and that where a com- munity is placed above the possibility of suf- fering, its members will not work. They scorn and despise civilization, because civilization means work. THE FIVE CIVILIZED TRIBES,’’ the Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws and Seminoles, would probably have refused to adopt the white man’s clothes and white man's ways, with lands divided in severalty, if they had been pampered like these Paphians of the sage brush, and it is a notable and Sig- nificant factthatthe most civilized of all, the Omahas and Winnebagos, are tribes who have no annuities from the government and have been thrown entirely upon their own in- dustry. Like all people who are supported in idle- ness, the Osages seem to bave lost their man- hood and become not merely pensioners, but mendicants. Of the $375,000 interest due to them annually it has been the policy of the President to with hold a part—paying them about $250,000 a year. This was the practice of the Interior Depart- ment under Grant, and Garfield, and Arthur and Cleveland. And every year the Osages have sent their ‘‘Governor’’ up to Washing- ton to importune the President to hand over to them tne $600,000 of accumulated interest retained. Gov. Black Dog came here and made a touching appeal to Secretary Teller, and Gov. Ni-kah-ke-pah-not came later and uttered to Secretary Vilas a pathetic — of similar tenor. Both were incorrigi- e. I was present at the latter of these inter- views and as it merely foreshadowed an inter- view that will undoubtedly take place this summer, I will give some report uf it. The Governor was robed in buckskin breeches, a blanket, a palm leaf fan anda plug hat. want to see the Great Father—the Presi- dent, said His Excellency.’’ The Great Father is busy,’’ remarked Col.

The Home at Villa Magni—The Poet’s Fancy for Boating and Ignorance of the Art— The Fatal „Don Juan’’ and Her Last Voyage—The Funcral Pyres Upon the Beach—The Grave in Old Rome, [Written for the SUNDAY PosT-DISPATCH.] VERYONE at all fam- iliar with English literature knows that Shelley—whom Mat- thew Arnold calls **peautiful and in- effectual angel, beat - „ins in the void his 7 — luminous wings in vain’’—was drowned in the Gulf of Spezzia, and that his ashes are ‘buried under the re- mains of the Aurelian wall, in the Protestant «cemetery at Rome. Not many, however, 12 are familiar with the ~ circumstances of the death and the burial, and as these are al- together remarkable and scarcely less romantic, the story may be worth re-telling to the readers of the SUNDAY PostT-DispaTcH. In so doing lI shall freely utilize the narrative of Capt. E. J. Trelawny, the friend and companion in their latter days ot both Shelley and Byron. He not only saw, but was an active participant in, much of what he describes; and his state- ments are accepted by the best authorities as accurate and trustworthy. In the early part of April, 1822, Shelley and his second wife, Mary Wollstonecraft God- win; Jane Clairmont, the mother of Byron’s Allegra and stepdaughter of Godwin; Edward E. Williams (a half-pay English cavalry lieu- tenan:) and his wife were living together in THE VILLA MAGNI, on the shores of the Gulf of Spezzia, one of the most picturesque spots in that region of matchless beauty, the Mediterranean. The villa wasthen, and still is, an exceedingly undesirable place of residence for civilized people, resembling a boat or bathing-house more thanadwelling. The lower floor was unpaved and used chiefly for storing boats and fishing apparatus. The second, and only other story, was divided into a hall and four smalirooms,inone of which wasa fireplace for cooking purposes. The walls bore some faint indications of former whitewash, but onthe whole the interior was not nearly as 4 N 4: P * 12 i * l 1 LI 4 | wleje) 151 11 inviting for human habitation as any stable fit for respectable horses. The only redeem- ing feature was out of doors—a balcony facing and overhanging the sea. Byron was then living in Pisa. not very far away, where he frequently reccived as guests Shelley, Will- jams and Trelawny, joining them in oc- casional visits to the Pisan seaport of Leg- horn. His passion for the water and bis skill as a swimmer are well known. Shelley had the same passion, only in a little milder form, but could not swim a stroke, and on one occasion nearly lost his life in a clumsy attempt to learn. And though éxceasively fond of boat- ing, on river, lake, or ocean, he had not the smallest knowledge of such navigation; so that when afloat be was as helpless and as useless as an infant. Boating with him was merely reading and dreaming upon the water in company more or less congenial. This curious aquatic taste showe itself in boyhood, when he made and sailed little paper boats as his favor- ite amusement; often, when he was older, using valuabie manuscript for lack of cheaper paper, and once, it is said, risking a £50 note in a trip across the Serpentine in Hyde Park. Utterly unpractical in this as in everything else, if we except poetry, it is not surprising that the immediate presence of the M editerranean should inspire Shelley with an uncontrollable desire to have a boat of his own in which to woo the tuneful muse upon the fair bosom of the tideless sea. Thie desire he had communicated to Trelawny, who promptly volunteered to assist in the gratification of his whim; and ‘ that FATAL AND PERFIDIOUS BARK, built in the eclipse and rigged with curses dark,’’ was already in 8 of construc- tion when he took up his residence at Villa Magni. Byron ordered-a boat at the same time, and both contracts were given to a Capt. Roberts, an English sailor at Genoa who secured the use of the Government dock yards forthe work. Byron was wise enough to allow the experienced builder to have his own way, consequently, his little schooner, Called the Bolfvar, both swift and seaworthy. was foolish enough to 1 the professional — the aav) eutenant had brought a m England, des 3 Ta ficer, and he very pink of t, which wae „ Was — A0 - u spite of the wh r (or him) down to and | even then was and liable to go schooner-rigged, — a lawny sent her to t in ch Charles .

It requires the greatest caution in preparation and ought to be highly concentrated. I would give any price for this medicine. You remember we talked of it the other night, and we both ex- pressed a wish to possess it. My wish was serious, and sprung from the desire of avoid- ing needless suffering. I need not tell you that I have no intention of suicide at present, but I confess it would be a comfort to me to hold in my possession that golden key to the chamber of perpetual rest.’ * Tue chamber of petnal rest was much nearer than poor Shelley thought. Only a few more days and its doors opened for him without the key of deadly drug. Soon after the reception of this letter Tre- lawny made a trip to the Gulf of Spezzia in Byron’s yacht and found Shelleyand Williams more than satisfied with the Don Juan. They were cruising about in her every day: de- clared she was not merely fit for the worst weatber the Mediterranean could produce, but could face with safety x gule in the broad Atlantic. They were simply crazy on the sub- ject. Trelawny went out with them once to see how these amateur sallors would manage the craft. His anticipations were fully real- ized and his curiosity as fully gratified. Shel- ley had the helm and actually did not know, or pretend to know, starboard from port, and, moreover, insisted that he could read and steer at the same time, ‘‘as the one was a mental and the other a mechanical operation.’’ Williams, of course, was not quite as bad, but still far from being a skilful navigator. He wore a frock coat aad cavairy boots and gave orders to the rest of the crew with great fluency. The boy, who knew far more than both of them, was treated as if he knew nothing. In one of their maneuvers the main sheet was ‘‘jammed,’’ or fast, so that it could not be let o, and the boat became unmanageable. Vhen the sheet was loosened at last, it knocked Shelley’s hat overboard and be would have gone, too, if. Trelawny had not ~aught him. The latter, trying to convince Williams of the danger likely to arise from their incompetency, said: It we had been in a squall to-day, withthe main sheet jammed and the tiller put starboard instead of port, we should have had to swim for it.“ Not 1,“ replied Shelley, with a laugh; ‘‘I should have gone down with the restof the pigs in the bottom of the boat’’—meaning the pig-iron ballast. . Shelley and Williams soon returned this visit, coming to Leghorn in their boat tue last days of June. They went with Leigh Hunt to Pisaand saw Byron, and were backin Leg- horn by the 3d or4th of July. Both were very anxious to get home to the dear ones in Villa Magni, but business detained them until the 8th. It was pastl o'ciock in the afternoon when they went on board the Don Juan, and Trelawny the ‘‘Bolivar,’’ which was to act as escort into theofting. But the latter, having no cle&rance papers, was not per- mitted-to leave port, and Trelawny wus com- pelled to say **GO0OD-BYE’’ and content himself with watching bis de- parting friends.througb a telescope. The mate of the ‘‘Bolivar’’ saw trouble ahead. ‘*There is no wind nov, be said, ‘‘but they will soon have too much. That gaff topsail is foolish ina boat with no deck and no sailor aboard. Look at those dirty, ragged clouds off there in the southwest, look at the smoke on the water. The devil is brewing mischief.’’ Under such gloomy auspices the Don Juan’’ slowly made her way toward the open sea. Four hours later, that is about 6:30p. m., Trelawny was roused from a siesta in the cabin by a noise above him, and hurried on deck to find. the crew making prep- arations for bad weather, and all the vessels in the harbor doing likewise. They were hardly ready for it when a terrific storm of wind and rain, accompanied by heavy thun- aer, burst upon them. Itdid not last more than twenty minutes, and when the horizon cleared Trelawny with his glasses looked anxiously seaward, hoping to catch sight of the Don Juan’’ returning to port, as other outward-bound crafts were doi But he saw nothing of her, nor could he Obtain any information from the other boats when they arrived. To shorten our sad story, it was not until the fourth or {fifth day afterward that Trelawny saw, near Via Reggio (whither he had gone on horseback) a punt, water keg, and some bottles which had drifted ashore and which he knew belonged to the missing boat. Then, seven or eight days later, two bodies were washed upon the beach, but at different points. The tall,slight figure of one of them; the jacket, with a vol- ume of Sophocles in one pocket and Keats’ poems in the other, doubled back, as ifthe reader, in the act of reading, had hastily thrust itaway,’’ left no doubt in Trelawny’s mind thatthis was all that was left of the mortal of poor Shelley. All parts of the body not protected by the clothes were stripped of flesh. Theother body, some miles distant, was in even worse condition, but easily identified as that of Williams. Three weeks after the wreck the body of the boy, Charles Vivian, was found—a mereskeleton. All the bodies were buried near the several places where they had been discovered. It de volved upon Trelawny communicate the dismal news THE TWO WIDOWS at Villa Magni. Those who care to read of that scene of awful sorrow may go to his — 1 gladly omit even briefest descrip- tion. It was finally decided to take Shelley’s re- mains to Rome—where his child and his friend Keats were buried—and those of Williams to England. Removal was impossible on account of the advanced state of decomposi- tion, and no alternative left but cremation. Only after much delay, and through the _ interposition of tue British Minister at Florence, wasthe necessary per- mission obtained from the authorities. Tre- lawny, who seems to have had entire charge ofthe melancholy business, hada portable furnace made at Leghorn, and on the 13th of August, 1822, went on board the Bolivar“ withan English acquaintance, and late the same day anchored within about two miles of the place where Williams was buried. Next day they were joined, accordingto previous arrangement, by Byron and Leigh Hunt, and in the presence of some Govern- ment officials the grave was opened, “Is that a human body?’’ exclaimed Byron; ‘‘why, it’s more like the carcass Ofasheepor any other animal than aman. Thisisasatire upon our pride and folly. Don’t repeat this with me. Let my car- cass rot where it falls.“ The funeral pyre of pine wood was built, frankincense and salt were thrown into the furnace, wine and oil 8 upon the body and the fire lighted. y 40’clock the cremation was complete and the ashes put in a strong oaken box, having the name inscribed on a brass plate, and placed inthe carriage in which Byron and Hunt returned to Pisa. CREMATION OF SHELLEY. Next morning the same party reassembled near Massa, the same preparations were made, Shelley’s grave was opened, and his body, with the same ceremonies, given to the flames. Byron could not face the scene and swam off to the Bolivar, while Hunt re- mained in the earriage. ‘‘The fire was 80 flerce,’’ says Trelawny, as to produce a white heat on the iron, an to re- duce its contents to gray ashes. The only portions that were not consumed were some ents of bones, the jaw, and the skull; but wnat surprised us all was that the heart remain entire.

Keats and his friend, James Severn, rest not far away. Less than two years after the life and light of Shelley were extinguished in the blue waves of the Italian guif, Byron died at Mis- solonghi in Greece. Neither had reached the prime of manhood. Shelley was not yet 30; Byron, only three months over 36. What helps it now, that Byron bore, With — scorn which moc«’d the smart, Through Europe to the tolian shore The pageant of his bleeding heart? That thousands counted every groan, And Europe made his woes her own? What boots it, Shelley! that the breeze Carried thy lovely wail away, Musical apy 5 tallan trees, Which fringe thy soft blue Spezzian bay? Inheritors of thy distress Have restless hearts one throb the less? For what avail'd it, all the noise And outcry of the former men?

Autograph albums and photograph albums are common enough, no doubt, but I believe there are few who have a pig album. : What is a pig album? Well, I will explain. Don’t you Know that there are many people who do things with their eyes shut. that could never in the N wide world do the — same things decently ff | with their eyes open? The pig album demon- 24 strates this fact ad- No. 1—Joy. mirably, says a writer in a recent number of the Philadelphia Times. The first pig album that lever saw was a small bound black bock with pages unruled. The unfortunate friends of the young lady who owned it were handed a book and a pen cil and politely request- 3 ed to draw, with nis or O° her eyes shut, a pig on * one of the clean blank pages.

You open your eyes and behold a confused mass, consisting of four perpendicular lines repre- senting the legs, ears somewhere on top of the pis's back; the tail, always artisticaily curled, placed probably under the pig’s snout! You see in what you had supposed to be a grave, decorous pig, a wild, rampant beast, with an expressiou perhaps crafty and cunning, sometimes complacent, occasionally imbecile. No. 1 is a good example of a successful pig. 5 The poor thing has a 0 swelling on his throat, =< but he seems to be bright and happy in — j spite of his trouble, 7 ep which, however, may Lf 774 J be accounted for in the y “i eS beautiful curl of his 5 tail.

A dispatch from San Francisco announcing that the famous minstrel firm of Thatcher, Primrose & West would disband after August 30 has set all theatrical people in this city talk- ing. Six or eight weeks ago the company went on a Western trip. Mr. West remained at his Bath Beach villa until Friday last, when he went to New Orleans to see the fight. The firm were the -founders of modern spectacular minstrelsy, and have dur. ing the past eight years made over $500,000 out of it. That they shouid dissolve there fore occasions much surprise, except to those who know the men — . oni well and are acquainted with the causes leading to the dis- solution. One of these ‘‘insiders’’ said: „1 have been expecting this. Before the company started West it was practically set- tied.

The strange part of it is that the hero marries a woman whom he met accidentally when he thought he wasto meet his sweetheart, and she, learning of his faithlessness, marries one of her former suitors, and the queerest part of it is that all four are happy. It is a strange story, and it is told in music that is sparkling and full ofspirit. The airs of the opera are lively and bright and it is full of ginger and go. There is no lagging in Coquelicot.“ There will be no performance to-night, be- cause the French Fete will take place this evening, but Coquelicot“ will open to-mor- rowevening.

Casearet Teresita The Kensington Minstrels seem determined to show how infinite is the variety of their fun and how limitless their resources Their sue- cess has been wonderful, certainlilv. They have given during the season a series of as novel entertainments as any that have been withessed here and the announcement for the coming week is even more interesting than any that has yet been made. In the first part the new bailads which will be introduced are; „Don't Breathe It Outside, by Wm. Barlow; „Speed the Bark, by Wm. Henry Whyte, a comic refrain by Charles Seamon. n the second part J. P. Curran will sing When Mother Puts the Little Ones to Bed;’’ J. C. Harrington has a very funny song, „Since Kate Learned Howto Play. I Will Re True to Thee’’ will be sung by J. M.

The conclusion of the entertainment will be ‘*Scenes on the Mississippi.’’ Sylvia Gerrish’s Pretty Legs. New York Letter to Chicago News. This Sylvia Gerrish, by the way, is one of the most remarkable women on the stage. She lon't pretty, she can’t sing, but she has the most wonderful legs and feet in the world. Nothing like them has ever been seen before, nothing ever will be again. They have walked with her right into fame, popularity and a big salary. She doesn’t sing anything nor say avythbing, she simply walks down to the footlights, poses and prances, turns round and round so that they may be seen from every point,not even under- taking to dance with these beautiful legs lest much muscular effort might spoil their fault less symmetry, and the enthusiastic audience cheers her with one accord and wants her to do it over and over again, which she is never loath todo. She stands ö feet ö inches on her French beels, but the slippers to which these heels are attached are only marked No. 1, and by honest count, too. The owner of the Thistle so worshipped those beautiful feet that he filled one of her tiny satin slippers with champagne, drank to the success of his boat, and then nailed it to the cutter’s mast; and though it didn’t bring him luck, he did not cease to worship at the owner's feeg until bis defeated racer bore him away from our shores. These beautiful legs served excellently as sea legs as well. The owner is one of the most ardent yachts- women that ever sailed the seas, and she can handle a wheel alnst any female on this coast. She has lovely apartments here in New York, littered all over with bric-a-brac which divides her affection with the sea and Wagner’s music, and she really has some very good possessions in this line. Exquisite ola Moorish drinking 82 of id and silver, covered with most entiful ineised work, old Persian vases, Japanese rvelains and Aztec pottery, all of which have been presents to her. And sprinkled in among these are every sort of sea trophies, includ- ing au endless number of photographs of the yachts, some of which she has bought and many taken berself, for she is a skilled am- ateur photographer, like nearly every other person one knows nowadays.
