Prince Bismarck has not yet signified his ac- ceptance of the Dukedom and other honors conferred upen him by the Emperor, and a profound sensation has been created. here by a report that he has refused to accept the Dukedom of Lauenberg and the decora- tion conferred upon him by the Emperor, and that Count Herbert Bismarck is urging the acceptance of his resignation as Minister of Foreign Affairs.

The Sultan and his advisers view with misgiving and appre- hension the retirement of Prince Bismarck and the appointment of Gen. Von Caprivi to succeed him.

Of all.the European States Germany is the one that has come least into antagonism with the Sultan as the head of the Mahommedan faith. All the others—Rus- sia, Austria, France and England—have been actively aggressive, and have been concerned | inthe killing of thousands of Musgsulmans and have luvaded or seized Turkish territory. Bosnia, Algeria, Oyprus, Egypt and the terri- tory lost in the different wars with Russia are examples. Italy le well-known to be coveting Tripoli, and comes under the same classifica- Hon as the others. Alone, yet, Germany has a clear record at Constantinople, though the recent affairs on the Zanzibar Coast and the hanging of Bushiri have created some ill-feeling. It is * for this reason and because the German influence is exercised so unobtrusively that for the mo- ment it is all powerful at Constantinopie.Ner- ertheless, itis in the endthe most dangerous to the Sultan and to the existence’ of Turkey as an independent state. VON DER GOLTZ FAA. “Quietly and unostentatiously Germans have found their way into ail the departments of Turkish Administration, and with the method and assiduity characteristic of Germans they have made themselves almost indispensable to their Turkish superiors, whilst at the same time they have made themselves thoroughly acquainted with the details of their departments. This is not- The Sultanof Turkey, ably 80 in in ilitary and financial matters. The recent changes in tbe personnel of the administrations baving to do with the public debt and other state affairs have placed the direction of them in the hands of Germans, and though no effective cdntro! of the army bas been given to Von der Goltz Pasba, he has acquired a very powerful infiu- ene over the younger generation of officers. The ola school of Turks, such as Osman Ghazi, Dervish, Mukhtar and others, regard bim with suspicion and dislike, and last year there was every prospect that his connection with the Turkish army was about to terminate. Prince Bismarcr, however, signified his pleasure that Von der Goltz should remain. It is, of course, fora pur- pose that Von der Goltz, Kamphovener, Hoobe and a number of others have been Im- posed on the Porte and that they are kept at Constantinople against the protest of the fanatical Turkish party. POSITION OF THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE. It ia well known at the Chancellory at Ber- lin that the power of the Sultan bangs now on avery slender thread. A financial crisis, an insurrection of the Christian races backed by some power, oraserious political emeute at Constantinople, would in the present state of Turkey bring about the immediate interven- tion of some one of the greater Powers, and Turkey would probably pass under the control of a commission, with one Power administering tits affairs. The position of the Sultan would become something like thatof the Khedive in Egypt at the present moment, and there is believed to be nodoubt that the massof the Turkish functionaries In the adminisfration and the whole of the army, in consideration of the ‘assurance that their pay and positious would remain undisturbed, would willingly acquiesce in the change. In other words, the Turkish Empire would be placed under a_ tutor. The idea prevails at Yildiz that such a solution of the Eastern question is impending, and there is very considerable uneasiness in consequence. As itis thought thought thet the ‘‘tutor’’ will de Germany, every effort ie being made to propitiate Ger- many and put off—for the Sultan—the evil day as long as possible. It is for this reason that desperate attempts are being made to draw up a presentable budget and to stave off the establishment of complete European control of the finances ofthe Empire. The only thing which might interfere with the realization of this plan would be a war with Russia or what is not unfrequently talked about at Con- stantinople—a Russian alliance. — 2 — ENGLISH POLITICS, Assisted Edtcation—Salisbury’s Equivoca- tion—Gladstone in Good Trim. § pecial Cablegram tothe Post-Dispatch. ONDON, March 22. The House of Com- mons will adjourn . for the Kaster bolli- days from the ist tothe 10th of next month, and it is probable that Mr. Geo. J. Goschen, Chancellor of the Exchequer, will de- liver the budget . speech on Monday, April 14. Politicians had concluded from the speeches made that no part of the surplus of the year would be applied to free or assisted education, but the remarks of Lord Salisbury at the Oariton Club meeting on Thursday on the subject of as- sisted education have changed their opinions. The Government will undoubtedly introduce a billat the earliest possible opportunity. Mr. Goschen has looked very carefully into the tea duty and is not disposed to reduce or repeal it. None of the advisors of the Treas- try have recommended a reduction of the tea duty, the question regarding which is con- sidered to be simply that of retention or abolition. SALISBURY'’S EQUIVOOCATION. The Liberal managers now believe that Mr. Labouchere’s recent action bas done good service in the constituencies by recalling public attention to Lord Salis bury’s amazing equivocsetion (to call un by no stronger name) in the matter of the secret agreement and to Mr. Bright’s opinion therein. The late Mr. Bright | was noted for his directness of speech and on the particular question of the amount ot credence to be given to Lord Saliebury’s’ word, ee; eee chere has gone. In the year 1884. bury accused Mr. 2 ot oy in 1809 ont potng of Be 8 * 10 the Ne would accept Lora Salisbury's word as more worthy of confidence than bis. „But, continued Mr. Bright, 'the Tory Managers do not object to a good and, as they think, a thoroughly, .uséful lie, and so they have placarded this in all the towns of En. gland and Seotiand,’’ HE WILL NOT RETIRE.

Cariton Club and hie speech in the House of Lords last evening. Mr. Gladstone will open the new residential college at Guy's Hospital on Wednesday next.

DAVITT’ S&S NEWSPAPER. | Michael Davitt is about toestablish a weekly paper here under the name of the Labor World. It will be the organ of the labor movement of Great Britain and Ireland and will advocate radical principles of reform in land owner- ship and questions affecting the social condi- tion of the tolling masses. The paper will as a matter of course give to the cause of home rule that strenuous „ support which is expected from the political status of its editor. Davitt has always stood well with the working classes of Great Britain. He is very popular among the Democ- ray every where on this side of the water. The paper will be under edi torial control of the father of the Land Michael Davitt. League, and will render invaluable service to Parnell by its | teachings and influence among labor organ Scotland and Wales. Davitt need not zations in England, Those who know be assured that the paper which he edits and will be responsible for will be thoroughly upright and indepen- dent and characterized by fearless teaching of the cause. He has at heart home rule for Ire- land and the social improvement and eleva- tlon ot the working Masses everywhere. THE LAND PURCHASE BILL. Davitt, who arrived from Dublin to-day, was asked what he knew there about the new land purchase bill. Jean find out nothing at all,“ he sald. It is more closely guarded than any public docu- ment ever printed since the home rule agita- tion. *’ The report here is that Balfour will intro- duce the bill Monday and that it will be as unpalatable to Irish landlords as to Irish ten- ants. The belief prevails amoug Irish Tories that the bill will propose to give them only Irish security for payment by the tenants of the purchase money for their farms, while they want Imperial security. They won’t ac- cept the bill without it. In that event Balfour Will drop the bill altogether. PARNELL’S MOTION. Parnell gave notice Monday of his motion fora committee to inquire into the forgery conspiracy and it{will probably be discussed at an early day. Neither Parnell or the Liberal leaders place the least reliance in the report that the Government will grant the inquiry asked, though they might try to get out of the difficulty by giving a restricted inquiry which would be useless. Mr. Gladstone is deeply interested in the in- quiry into the origin and subsequent history of the forged Parnell letters. He will call up the subject in the House early next week, and will probably speak upon it and in favor of Parnell’s demand fora committee invéestiga- tion. The easy acveptance of letters as genu- ine by the parties who made such damaging use of them has never been satisfactorily ac- counted for, and Gladstone will demand that the inquiry be pushed tothe end. It is a mat- ter, he says, which conoérns the character of the House thus maligned in the person of one of ite members. Had the conspiracy, slander and forgery been successful it would have in- volved the expulsion of its victim. Deprived of the opportunity of exploring and exposing it in the special commission Parnell righteously appeals to the House tor the means of prosecuting the inquiry. TOBY VIEW OF LAND PUROBASE. In accordance with the programme outlined by Lord Salisbury on Thursday Balfour will on Monday introduce in the House of Com- mons the Government land purchase Dill, on which oecasion he will delivér an exhaustive speech, presenting the advantages, from a Tory point of view, which are to be secured to evefybody concerned. The pill retains permissive features for which the Government has all along contended and may be said to virtuaily deprive the tenant of any Volition in the matter of land purchase if land owners shall so will it, though the am- biguous language of the bill appears to favor the purchasers. A prolonged debate on the measure ig inevitable, and many exciting scenes in its course may be looked for. Mr. Gladstone will de the guest of the occa. sion at a banquet to de given at the National Liberal Club or Monday evening, when the Liberal leader will meet the new members of the House informally.

Special Cablegram to the Font- Dispatch, Paris, March . URING the past twenty- four hours a gentleman holding a Government position in Brazil and a Fonseca, whose name I am not authorized to mention, arrivea here from Brazil, bringing with him some interest- ing news. He was met by your correspondent mint the Brazilian Embas- sy and engaged in con- versation on the affairs ot Brazil. He said a letter, undoubtedly in- spired by Dom Pedro, but signed by the Duke of Coburg-Gotha, has been received by Gen. Da Fonseca, thanking him for the consideration he had shown the Emperor during the period of the revolution, which the writer states was a most trying moment for the aged monarch. The write goes on to state that Dom Pedro fully appreciates the kindness and generosity ot Gen. Da Fonseca, and regrets that circum- stances over which he had no control com- pelied him to decline the offer of 5,000 centos by the new Government, through its chief, made as a condition of his banishment. WHY THE ANNUITY WAS DECLINED. Further explaining the 6x-Emperor’s declination, the writer states that although exiled, Dom Pedro could only with dignity accept the annuity which the constitution granted bim; that to have accepted the 5,000 centos, under the circumstances which it was tendered, would have compromised his dig- nity and cost him the esteem of his friends abroad. ‘‘Dom Pedro,’’ the letter continues, ‘fis by no means bankrupt, in spice of the heavy losses he has sustained by the change in Brazil. He has a large income from extensive investments abroad of long standing, which is more than sufficientto supply bis present wants. Con- sequently, Wen it is stated that it is the de- sire of the Emperor to return to Brazil, not as a claimant, but as an humble citizen, where he could, with contentment, pass the re mainder of his days in the laud he so much loves, and to whose Government he bas sac- rificed nearly half a century of his li'e, it is not because he needs anything of them other thana contipaation of that esteem he has always enjoyed and sympathy in his declining years. AN EARNEST PRAYER. „He therefore hopes that the honored chief of the néw Government will respect the de- sire of the ex-Emperorand use his influence to have an exception in the decree of banish- ment, recently promuigated, made in his favor, that he may be free to return whevever he desires. In return for this kindness Dom Pedro would present all of his real property, except his home at, Petropolis, to the State, and if thé Btedilian’ people insist by actual demonstration, he would renounce all claims to the throne of Brazil,and annul ali hereditary claims thereafter. This is sufficient proof that the only wish the ex-Emperor bas is to die in the land ot his birth in the midst of his countrymen.’’ While Gen. Da Ponseca,’’ says my inform- ant, ‘‘is disposed to treat the ex-Emperor with the greatest consideration and entertains profound respect for his wshes, he is inclined to regard the letter asadevice of bis heirs, who deem it advisable to stoop to conquer. He will pay no attention to the appeal uriess Dom Pedro makes his desire known over bis own signature.’’ TO RULE BY THE SWORD. The gentieman further stated people are saying now that it is the intention of the Provisional Govern- ment to annul the decrees convoking the Con- stituent Assembly and to prolong the dicta- torship for five years. At a dinner given some days ago the ex-Minister of Agriculture, now Minister of War, took oocasion to allude to this report. The people of Brazil, he said, should be .more grateful and not insult the Government and the army dy circulating such rumors. Neither in the Government or in the army wasthere any one who desired the baneful supremacy of thesword. What the members of the Government most earnest- ly desired was to return as soon as possibie to weryane life. Office hasno charms for them, March April May that the close friend of Gen. Da- and as to himself there was no inducement that would be sufficient to reconcile him to remaining permanently in the place he oc- cuplied. The Minister has since published a card stat- ing that his kta was not ee ro- ported. The Journal de Commercio, the leading paper in Brazil, eulogizes the speech in very warm terms and says that it leads to the hope that the decree of December 23, establishing & military tribunal for the trial of political crimes will be revoked. 4 BOUNDARY QUESTION, The muny reports io circuiation in regard te the boundary treaty with the Argentine Re- public have caused the Goyernment to pub- lish an article on the subject in the official paper. The articie Geprecates discussion of the question at present as premature, since the terms of the treaty have not yet been made known, and states that all apprehension in regard to those terms are groundless, since, the Government has a full sense of its responsibility In so im- portanta question. Besides, the treaty, de- fore becoming operative, has to be ratified by the legislative assemblies of the two coun- tries. If itis not ratified the boundary ques- tion will be settled by arbitration, the Presi. dent of the United States belng requested to act as arbitrator. The Argentine Republic, Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch, BUENOS AYRES, March 22.—At a Cabinet meeting yesterday the President of the Re- public expressed acquiescence in the plan of reforms framed during his absence, At another meeting it was resolved to reduce the general est imate for expenses by $10,000,000, this reduction being obtained without the dis- miséal of any employes or the reduetion of any salaries. The executive binds itself to abide by the present budget during 1891, sub- ject to the economies adopted. It was also resolyed to appoint a commis- sion of notables to prepare regulations for the treasury, in order to insure that institu- tion performing correctly the important func- tions appertaining to a financial economic body. -— HARD LINES FOR THE DUKE. Marlborough Falls of Election to the Turf Club—Another Sensation. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. ONDON, March 22.— The tidbit of the week inclub circles is the treatment of the Duke of Mariborough by the 2 Turf, which is the ex- clusive swell sporting club of England. The other day the Duke was put up for elec- tion. He had strong backing, among Churchill, who, as assisted the other members of the Churchill family in advocating the Duke’s claims. But whether it was due to the press or Randolph’s attack on the Government or the hostile action of the Duke’sfermer wife’s relatives or the sudden excess of morality on the part of the sporting fraternity—or all three reasons combined—the Duke was given to understand the day before the election that he was almost certain to be biackbalied. Thus, in his interest, as well as their own, his friends withdrew his name at the last moment. That the Turf Ciub should set itself up asacensor of morals has thrown all the clubs of the land into convulsions of laughter, AFTER MORE MONEY. Another proof of the deep-rooted Pharisee- ism of the British aristocracy coupled with this is the social gossip about the departure of the Duchess of Mariborough for America on the Teutonic with twenty trunks and a man servant. Though the. Duchess’ experience with her titled husband since she came here to live has been anything buta bed of roses, she probably got along with him quite as hap- pily as she expected. So far as can be learned, there is no truth in the current rumor that her sudden departure was Duke of Mariborough. the result of a family quarrel. The real reason probably isto raise more money. Since the Duke married a rich widow he has been going through the Hammersley millions in fine style. Not only has the late Hammersfey fortune repaired dilapidated Blenheim, but iu addition the Duchess has purchased and richly fur- nished atacost of nearly a quarter million doilars the residence at Carlton House terrace, which she has settled upon the Duke. She aleo paid up fully another quarter of a million dollars of the Dukes debts, con- March April May others Ran dolph a family affair, — — soon. fi n. be coutd id not tall you, deca —. 1 Dlisim ent 1 505 — . uires 2— l the e enterprise and ex 28 in themselves rich and rare flowers, and is 88 an 4 o to the ——1 in some they make them appear beauti Tuesday and Wednesd» enced Parisian m newest, the most correct wear. lieg how we do business; see if we . assortments.

But no one knows better than the Duke that good pictureg are marketable commod- ities, easily turned into cash. ANOTHER SENSATION. Another impending sensation, which is freely discussed in the lobby of Parliament and at the clubs last nicht, though not made public yet, is that the Solicitor General, Sir Edward Clarke, will soon figure in asuitfor divorce. This is very awk- ward for the Government, who have been building on the O’Shea divorce suit serving them asacard.against Parneli. Singulariy enough Olark has been retained to lead or O’Sheain his suit. Just how far legal pro- ceedings have gone against the Solicitor-Gen- eral cannot be learned now, but they have gone far enough to create much comment and no little anxiety among Sir Edward’s political friends. It le said that everything is being done to effect a settlement. Among the passengers on the Teutoula were H. L. Horton, the New York banker, with his family, who bave been four years abroad and now return to remain. Seton Carr, M. P., also sailed by the Teu- tonia with a commission from a syndicate of British capitaiiste to look into American in- vestments. THE PANITZA PLOT. A Statement That Must Be Retracted—Bus- sia and Bulgaria. a Special Cablegram to the Poat-Diapatch. PETERSBURG, Mareh 23.—The Novoe Vremya coolly intimates that Premier Stambouloff and Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria will be compelied to retract the statement made 7 by the press of Sofia and so widely circa- lated by subordinate officiais that Rusela was the instigator of the so-called Panitza plot, The means taken, it says, to make the Ozar’s governmént odious will only enhance the detestation felt in tbe capitals of Europe of the circulators of such calumnies and hints that the alleged piot may be yet proved to have been merely a more than ordinarily energetio demonstration of some officers and men of the chronically impecunious Bulgarian ‘‘army’’ to. secure a portion of the arrears of pay due them. One thing ie certain, that the relations between the present Bulgarian ruler and Russia will be in the future more strained than ever, and that M. Stambuloff’s life will be a very bad one for an insuranes company to take a risk upon. Some papers of the former British Premier, Lord Beaconsfield, show that be was confident of war with Rus- sia during the latter stages of the Russo- Turk - ish eonflict and very much disappointed that it did not take piace. In tho latter event Crete, as well as Cyprus, would have been numbered among England’s possessions, but his main bope, as is proved by correspondence with wealthy Israelites throughout the world, was the romantic one of inducing Turkey to grant enlarged concessions to Hebrews then president of who should become resident in Jerusalem.

Lesson Taught the Laborers by the Colliers’ Stulke—German Workmen’s Demand Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch.) ONDON, March tr. The great strike’of colliers, which threatened to de- moralize the coun- try by turnfng hun- dreds of thousands ‘of people idle and stopping the wheels of industry and checking trade in all directions, bas hap- plly ended and next week all the men will have returned to work, Its consequences are likely to be momentous. Laboring men have deen taught thelr power. The force that combination on a large sale gives them has been illustrated still more vividly than in the dock strike, which was confined to London alone. This week the combination covered England entire, and threatened to sweep in Scotland. It was emi- nently successful. The men gained nearly ail they asked. The effects are beginning to be felt. Mine owners in Northumberland have granted an incrsase of 7% per cent ln wages, which makes a total increase of 43 per cent in two years. If this goes on the conditions of labor will be revolutionized and the British workman may hope to be paid as wellas his brother in America, despite the ory of the pauper labor in Europe. s They Want Shorter Hours.

By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcn. ASHINGTON, D. C., March 22.—In the House this afternoon eulo- gies were deliy- ered on the late Representative Gay of Louisiana, a man in many ways, during his lifetime, ident! filed with St. Louis and her in- terests. That «a St. Louis member of Congress should pay trib- ute to the de- ceased was ex- pected, and the task was assigned to Repre- sentative Kinsey, at a late hour, who salt, among other things, that the deceased was well known to the citizens of St. Louls as a pioneer in the development of that city, and they would not expect that an occasion of this kind should pass by without a tribute being paid tothe memory of Mr. Gay. In 18% he had been taken by bis parents from Virginia to st. Louis, where he developed an aptitude for business. In 1855he married a Tennessee lady and removed to Louisiana, but retained his many valuable interests in St. Louls. Ue called attention te the fact that Mr. Gay was the first business man to bring a cargo of coffee into the St. Louls market, and that he was an advocate of everything which tendedto advance the city’s welfare, being one of the promoter of the Eads bridge. Mr. Kinsey said nothing of the po- litical career of Mr. Gay, but referred only to his business life and of his exemplary habits, strong religious connection and quiet char- itable acts. The Attorney-General has informed those who are taking part in. the Eastern District Marshalship contest that he will leave the disposition of the charges which have been made entirely to the President. As the President is away, it will be a few days before he will be prepared to give them con- sideration. Congressman Kinsey, Major Brock and Mr. Frank Buchanaz were among the late callers on the Attorney- General. Mr. Kinsey had the last talk. The Attorney-General was quite positive. Mr. Kinsey said that it would be the proper thing to givethe appointment to some one from outside the city of St. Louis, and thereupon suggested that as Pike County, to the north, had just received a $3,600 position in the su- pervising inuepectorehip; that as Macon, in the same quarter, had furnished a Chief of the Bureau of Statistics it would hardly be just and fair to give the Marshaiship to that quarter and make three in a bunch. The Attorney-General said that there was much force in that suggestion. Mr. Kin- sey then stated that he had no particular can- didate forthe position, but that he thougut it would be good politics to take a candidate from a section of the country that would lend suceess to the ticket in three congressional “districts. The choice should bean ex-sol- dier, the Attorney-General intimated. Mr. Kinsey then presented the name of Ira D. Warner of St. Louls County. Mr. Warner, he sald, was indorsed by the County Com- mittee, had served through the rebellion in the Army of the Potomac and with the Vermont Volunteers and resided in a couhty which gave 1,800 Republ'- can majority and never had a Federal appoint- ment. Then Mr. Kinsey called attention to Ohairman D. M. Park of the Congressional Committee as agentieman who would make an acceptable appointment. Mr. Park, he said, did net want to be considered as an ap- Heant for the place, but he would perhaps eit, and among those who had been men- tioned Mr. Park was bis preference.

The Senate Shaken Up. Ry Telegranh to the PoOrT-DIsPaTcau. WASHINGTON, D. C., Maren 22.—The Sen- ate had a slight reminder to-day of the feel - ing that has been aroused by the uncovering by the newspapers of the scheme for looting the 1 means ofthe proposed erec- tion of num beriess biic buildings through out the country, he private calendar was in order by agreement, and tbe first bill on it was one appro — „000 for the erec- tion of a public building at San Diego, Cal. Mr. Stanford, Chairman of the Senate Com- mittee on Public Buildings and Grounds, summoned up the bill with an air of @asy con- Hdence and manifestiy without the slightest thought of encountering opposition from any quarter. Asa rule a bill of this nature goes through the Senate like a flash, and by courtesy the process is the reading of the title of the bill, the putting of the question by the Chair, to which there is no response on either side, and the solemn declaration by the Chairthat the ayes have it and the bill is passed. But to-day there was some informa- tion sought. Mr. Sherman, who thought the amount asked for rather large for so smalia town, and Mr. Ingalls wanted to know how California was faring in general as to public buildings. Mr. Stanford seemed an- noyed, in his solemn way, at these inquiries abouta little matterof afew hundred thou- sand dollars, and in gruff tone referred Mr. Tngalis to the record for the information he desired. ‘Chis in turn made Mr. Ingalls angry. and turning about ne replied to the California piutocrat in language and manner that startled that individual. He said that the answer war rather vague and indefinite. He wanted to ascertain in regard *o all these bills, whether buildings were needed and what appropriation ougbtto be made for them in order to vote intelligently. There was a general complaint, be said, in the press of the country that appropriations for public buildings were exborbitant and extravagant and that provision was made for public build ings where they were not needed. The Senate was now considering one of these bills and the chairman of the committee which re- orted had very curtly replied to him that if e referred to the report he could satisfy Him- self. He respectfully submitted that Senators were entitled to information ona matter of public importance before they were calied upon to vote upon so large a sum as $200,000 for a building in San Diego. He therefore repeated his request for information asto the number of places in California for which pub- session and the amount for each. Mr. Stanford attempted some sort of reply to this, but grew incoherent and inaudible, and Mr. Spooner, another member of the com- mittee, seeing the chairman’s deplorable plight, came to his rescue. Mr. Spooner ex- plained that the committee, as was its cus- tom, had referred the matter to the Treasury Department, and thatthe superyising archi- tect hed recommended $500,000 for San * instead of the $200,000 first proposed. The committee, however, would only vote $300,- 000, which in his judgment was just and liberal. Mr. Platt, Mr. Wilson of lowa, Mr. Dolph, Mr. Teller and Mr. Morgan followed in brief speeches, advocating the appropriation and testifying tu the growing importance of San Diego. The speech of Mr. Hearstin the same line was one of those pathetic incidents in the history of the Senate at which everybody resent on the floor and in the galleries hangs is head in honest sympathy. The rugged old turfman knows bis deficiencies, and never takes the floor, bus his State being interested, called upon to make an effort to participate in the debate. A more complete failure could not be imagined. All that could be gathered from hisfive minutes’ talk was that his peo- ple were in the union and bad aright to their share of public buildings erected by the Gov- ernment. The farce was so broad at times ro ms Senators and visitors both laugbed out- r t. r. ane closed the debate by witbdraw- ing his objection to the bill. He had bis re- venge on Stanford, whom he had lectured roundly for his curtness, and he improved the occasion to speak for greater economy in the erection and finish of public buildings for the Government’s use. The bill was then passed. The value of the debate will appear in the care with which the Pubiic Bulidings and Grounds Committee must in future proceed. Another great value, too, must be the analy- sis which Mr. Teiler isto furnish, showing how the buildings in contemplation will be distributed over the country,if ordered erect- ed, and what authority there isfor the state- ment that in the introduction of such bills the political advantage of members of QOongress takes precédenve of the needs and demands of the country.

His face presented a haagard appearance, and even those who did not observe him closely could readily see that he was far from being a well man. He stopped and spoke pleasantly to a reporter, and said he had been bro t to the Oourt- house under a misunderstanding. He said that he very much regretted that it had been found necessary to bring bim to the court as he was notin a condition to undergo any excitement. He, however, appreciated the n of being permitted to walk out and have a little fresh air. He spoke pleasantly ot the manner in which he was treated at the District jail. From the City Hall he went tothe office of ©. Maurice Smith, his attorney, where he remained in consultation for an houror more. According to the ass igument, Mr. Kincaid was to have been arraigned this morning, but when the clerk called out his name District Attorney Li mb stated that the case had been per- mitted to go over until next Saturday.

The Secretary went immediately to the Navy Department. The Despatch moved upthe Potomac River very slowly, and when darkness came On last night she anchored about fifteen miles below Washington and proceeded here this morn- ing. The trip up the river was made without incident or mishap, and the lower Cedar Point shoals, upon which the Despatch grounded on her trip down, were carefully and safely avoided. The round trip took one week. No report of the grounding of the Des- patch has yet deen made by Licut. Cowles, and the impression is gaining ground that no court of inquiry will be ordered.

To-day he introduced it again in another from and bad it referred to his Committee on Education, from which it will be reported doubtiess in afew days. But there is a serious question whether it will be reached on the calendar at this session of Con- gress, for it will have to take its place now atthe foot. The new bil] differs from the old incipally in what it + yy — . There are for the first year $5,000, usted of $7,- 000,000, and for the succeeding years millions as follows: 7 instead of 10; 10 instead of 15; 12 instead of 18:9 instead of 11;7 instead of 9;5 instead of 7 and (in the eighth 4 3 instead ot 6.

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 22.—The Senate took up the calendar and the first bill resched was one appropriating $800,000 for a public building at San Diego, Cal. Mr. Sherman thought that, from what hesaw of Sandiego upon a late visit there this was a rather large appropriation. Mr. Stanford demanded the bill and prophe- sied great things for Sani Diego. He d the building was needed for the use of the Cus- tom-house, the Internal Revenue Office, the Land Office and the Post-office. Mr. In- galls said there was general complaint in the press ofthe country that appropriations for public buildings were exorbitant and extrava- gant. Mr. Piatt spoke of the importance and rapid -A-HARVEST OF BARG — * Bedroom Sets from Sideboards from ....... Wardrobes from ....... Extension Tables from. Center Tables.......... Bed Lounges........... Folding Beds from..... — por of San Diego, and said ifthe city kept n increasing at its present rate even a building of the size contemplated would soon be inadequate. Mr. Morgan put ina good word for San Diego, and spoke ticularly of its harbor. Mr. agreed with him and thought Senators were too sensitive about newspaper criticisms, but the newspapers could not give the Senate better information in regard to the public buildings than the Supervising Archi- tect ofthe Treasury, These public buildings were in the interest of economy and of public business. Mr. Hearst said that San Diego was a place from which 500,000 people of Cali- fornia drew their coa! supplies, and its popu- lation and industries were growing very fast. He gave notice that he and his colleague in- tended to ask for other appropriations for public bulidings in California; they intended to do it honestly and get what they asked for. They expected to show that they were en- titled to it, and to prove it by Senators who had deen in Caltfornla, and, thank goodness, there have been a good many ot them there, and some ofthe best of them. He spoke of the Post-office at San Francisco as a national disgrace, and said they inten‘led to havea new one. Mr. Mitchell corroborated Mr. Hearst’s statement aboutthe San Francisco Post-office. Mr. Hearst’s time expired, and although the Senators urged bim to continue his speech, he declined. Mr. Dawes sup- ported the bill, which was finally passed, after a general discussion of the need for public buildings in Western cities. Mr. Blair introduced another educational bill and it was referred to the Committee on Education and Labor. Senate bill to promote the efficiency of the General Land Office (increasing the salary of Commissioner to $5,000 and of Assistant Com- missioner to $8,500) gave rise to a long diacus- sion, atthe end of which it was laid aside without action. Among the bills on the calendar that were ed were following: To provide for administration Oaths; for par- Dolph the the of UNSHAKEN DEVOTION. | ARRIVAL OF THE FATHER OF THE UNFOR- TUNATE MR& BIRCHELL.- His Faith in His Daughter as Strong as His Distike for His Haredsome Sen -In-Law— Hirchell’s True Character Laid Rare by the Venerable Englishman—A Runaway Match and Its Deneuement.

They wrote bythe letters home and when they returned they seemed happy. Sothe runaway marriage was con- doned. Late in the winter Birchell told me of the fine chance he had to bring out farm pupils to Canada. He brought the two young men, Benwell ana Pelley,to my home at Bainpvridge. He traded on my name. I thought he was earnest in his endeavors. They sailed, and then came the horribie news which has brought me over here. Iam here simply to succor my daugh- ter. Ur. Hatton kindly came with me to ad- vise me when I needed it. Now that Mrs. Birchell is free I shall take her back to Eu- land as soon as Ioan. If she must stay here will make her as comfortable as I may till the trial is over and then lead her home. As to the supposition advanced by Domin- ion Detective Murray, that Benwell was not Birchell’s first victim, Mr. Stevenson and his daughter wer- inciined to scout the idea. He is so ycang—only 28, Mrs. Jones ex- piained, ‘‘and has not been out of college very long. Iam not at all gurprised at the calm he is maintaining. It is characteristic of the man. His self-command at all times was remarkabie.’’ Mr. Stevenson and party leave early to- morrow for Clifton, Ont. LAND OF HURRORS.

This is his frst voyage across the Atlantic, and nothing but the jeopardy of his beloved daughter Flor- ence would have ever tempted himto leave his . comfortable quarters at home. Mr. Stevenson bore the voyage welland was as eager as a child to hear the latest news of his daughter. His lips trembled whenhe read the news of his daughter’s release and his eyes filied with tears. Oh, Iknew it must come out just so,’’ he exclaimed to the Post- DISPATCH correspond- ent, who joined the ship at Quarantine. ‘‘How could it terminate otherwise? No one who knew my daughter could ever for a moment belleve that she conspired in the murder of Frederick Benwell, or that she was a party to the deception which lured him trom England. She was so gentle, so affectionate, so loy- able. No father ever had a more dutiful child than I did in de, and lam proud to say that except in her marriage with Reginald Bir- chell, she never gave me an instant’s pain.’’ Then you thfuk that Mrs. Birchell was de- ceived like Beuwell and Pelley about the out- come of the voyage to Canada, do you?’’ ‘*Deceived! poor child, she was duped, decoyed! sue believed thoroughly that he owned a farm in Woodstock.

The letter quotes from letters recently received from Siberia. These letters give statistics.that the bs gy says may be relied on as nearly if not quite correct. The statistics are in sub- atance that the exiles to Siberia in 1886 num- bered 16,184 nihilists or their reported sup- porters. In 1887 there was added 14,277 nore. In 1888 the numder was 15,015, and in 1889 =the exiles were 12,000. Ot the number exiled the deaths range from 180 to 220 per 1,000 due to natural sickness, cold, exposure, and the Knout punishment. The suicides average about 20 to 1,000. Dur - ing the month of August, 1889, in one of the central political prisons 275 of the 490 prison- ers were prostrated with typhoid fever.

The same wool tariff that has closed s0 many American mills and driven the American sheep out to the buffalo ranges of the far West and forced the American laborer to wear high priced shoddy, has plunged Mr. PLUMMER into bankruptcy with scores of its wealthiest and most en- thusiastic advocates, , eo _ PRESS telegrams denying that quo war- ranto writs had been or were to be filed in the Supreme Court at Jefferson City to test the constitutionality of the Drabelle law, under which the present School Board of this city was elected, have been sent. daily from Jefferson City, appar- ently with intent to deceive.

T—œ— - — — -—½— AFTER the Virginia elections the Re- publican organs agreed almost unani- mously that Gen. MaHONE represented the worst elements in Virginia; that he was not fit to bea Republican leader, and that he deserved his defeat. The report that the General is to be made Consul-General at Paris indicates that. President HARRI- SON disagrees with his party organs. Gen. MAHONE joins the ranks of SORESBY, the letter thief; DILLE, the land-grabber; DUDLEY, the vote. purchaser, and others who are unfit for anything except to hold office as the reward for disgraceful services to the Republican party. — . . — — — WE are getting on bravely in the ways of European aristocracy. Over there when a princeling first sees the light he is immediately invested with a string of titles and is made an officer in the-army. Following this old-world custom, JOHN A.

Now let young BENJAMIN HaRRISON MCKEE be ‘made commander of the Regular Army, and young Pxt. SHERIDAN be appointed to suoceed the late Maj.-Gen.

When the Republican party gave its nomination for President to one who was the grandson of a President, and the great-grandson of a Governor of Virginia, the Democrats had a good deal to say about the plutocratic influence in control of the Republican party and about its tendency to pay homage to the hereditary principle in politics. The Republicans, however, could, and did, answer, that BENJAMIN II., son of Wirit1aM HeENrRy, wasaman of mature age, well tried in public affairs, who had worked iis way up from poverty to the high position of a Senator, after serving creditably as a Colonel and Brigadier-General in the late war. Now what can the Democrats say in de- tense of the conduct of their recently elected Governor of Ohio, who has vio- lated a high public trust and grossly abused his official authority by commis- sioning an infant mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms’’ as a Lieutenant in the Ohio National Guard, merely because this new-born babe is JOHN ALEXANDER LOGAN III., the grandson of a distin- guished soldier and Senator of that name! Did any other American official since 177 ever before sign such a patent of nobility or lend his official authority to such an idiotic, indefensible, offensive and idol- atrous recognition of the lingering faith in hereditary aristocracy and chieftaincy? In the old Governments of Europe their War Lords” are born, not made. There some few are born to command by right of descent, while the many are born only to serve and obey. There babes of the blood royal are gazetted as Generals and Admirals in their own and foreign mili- ‘itary establishments before they can talk. But are the American people prepared 10 tolerate any such nonsense in the admin- istration of their governments? Shall any of these governments be permitted to establish the principle and the precedent that superiority is hereditary and that the right torule and command shall de- scend from father to son regardless of age or fitness? —— — — — WHO WILL WIN?

In a letter explaining the report Miss J ENNESS writes that she did not say the Cincinnati ladies toed in, but that they walked with their feet directly forward and that she thought it was the result of climbing the.hills around Cin- cinnati. In the same letter Miss JENNESS, while advocating graceful walking, ascribes the rolling gait peculiar to some people to rough sidewalks. If Miss JEN- NESS will try to climb a hill she will find that the natural position for the feet, and in fact the only position possible should the hill be steep, is with the toes inclined outward—the steeper the hill the greater the angle. It is an old-fashioned cor- rective of toeing in to walk up hills or inclines, She will also find that nothing contributes more to giving a graceful poise in walking-than rough roads and that a rolling gait on one will land her on the ground. Miss JenNress has excellent ideas, but her practical knowledge is at fault. * THE ory ot the baby omcer - To Arms! To Arms!“ Ye Inn only way r trousers from bagging atthe knees is not to wear them.

The Suggestion Made With Groat Force at the St. Louls Press Club Reception—Mr. | Kennan Indorses the Plan Praposed, and Will Endeavor to Follow It Out. After the lecture at Entertainment Hall, last night, Mr. George H. Kennan, the Siberian correspondent, was®escorted to the Press Ciub, where he was received by representa- tive newspaper men of the city and by promi- nent citizens invited ta meet him. The event, the opening reception given by the club, was one of the most pleasant and ya- bie in very way. the reception was eral conversation = le Judge Normile, Mr. 1 Bronson Keeler. During this Mr. Keenan a great deaiof very valuable and interes information on special points not touch upon in his lectures. The important part of the evening came later, however. and one which, the occasion being a purel lone, was not anticipated. It was in the initiative of movement in this country to bring Russia to a realization of the necessity for practicing civilized methods in the treatment of her criminals. The sugges- tion came from Mr. Keeler and was made with great force. Mr. Kennan was fot the Mab by President F. D. White on behalf of the b and responded with a few ¥ neat remarks on the subject of Ruseia and Siberia — ewe on the in Siberia number of friends. These, he said, included S men and politicul economists hey, remarked, were the people who fell under the ban of the Russian authorities, And yet they had committed no crime. They had uttered simply what in this coun would be regarded as truisms. One in particular, heeaid, was a very near and dear friend and a thorough newspaper man. He had been sentenced to 81 iberia : for having three of his (Mr. KRennan’s) magazine articles in bis poseession. Judge Normile followed, on invitation, with some very interesting remarks on the ac- complishments of newspapér men in Russia, Siberia and Bulgaria. MR. BRONSON KEELER ' was then called upon, and introduced a busi- ness subject which was warmly indorsed by the members of thecluband those present, and which had been informally disoussed earlier in the evening. It was on the defeat of the ratification of the extradition treaty with Russia now r before the United States Senate. hat treaty, he sald, should be defeated under every consideration, and Mr. Kennan was the man, and I man, to do t. He alone could do it, and that very easily. The United States could not afford to return prisoners as proviged in this treaty toa nation, the Gov- ernment of which permitted cultured women to be flogged to death. Mr. Keeler then proposed, or suggested to Mr. Kennan that at ectures he should request the people in his audiences to write to the Sena- tors from their States, as individuals, pro- testing against the ratification of the treaty. This, be thought, would surely defeat it. Then he could go further. At the close of his lectures prominent citizens could be called to the stage as Chairman and Secretary, and the andiences be asked to pass resolutions directed to the Senate protesting against the ratification of the treaty. The audiences of the pasttwo evenings, and there could not have been more strongly representatives ones in St. Louis, he said, would bave passed them with a burrah. MR. KENNAN ACQUIESCED in the idea. The suggestion, he said, came with a great deal of fore. it was new, too, and if it was the opinion ofthe club that he should adopt this Poliey he would do 80 very cheerfully. He proposed to give the rest of his life to this work and would be guided by. this advice. That it was the williof the club and those present was strongly evidenced by the applause which greeted not only the sug- gestion, but the manner in which Mr. Kennan acce ed it. Continuing, Mr. Kennan said he would not send even acommon criminal, a burglar, to Russia to be tried. The burglar deserved punlahment, but he did not deserve what he would have to go through on the trip to Siberia. Then -the oe of the treaty was not clear. Under it the Russian Government could evade the real charge against a man and prefer one of forgery. Once in Russia this charge would disappear for all any one knew. The prisoner would be tried secret court without witnesses aud probably without copmnsel. No one would now what be was tried for, what the evidence was againsthim. Thenif the sentence ha pened to be severe, it would be all right. not, it would be set aside, and the Minister of the Interior, purely by administrative process, would pronounce sentence and the prisoner would in a short time to be on the way to Siberig. AN INSTANCE OF THIS was cited by Mr. Kennan,. which showed the force of his remarks very clearly. It was of a Russian subject who had come to this 1 8 try, and had lived here for several year St. Louis, Chicago and other lar 6 * He had taken out hie first nat- uralization papers, when he became homesick and concluded to return to Russia.

The man was then arreste = living under a false passport, tried sentenced to two years’ ae in another European province of Russia. This did not suit the Minister of the Interior, the sen- tence was set aside, and by administrative process the man was sent to Eastern Siberia. He attempted to escape, was captured and sent. to an Arctic province. * his sentence was completed he ask be allowed to return by privete convSyance, but the terms were made so hard that he could not stand the expense. He could not endure the hardships of the return wy and died. All his father could learn was mat Da had died, and this information ve correspondence received by letter from another prisoner. : THE RECENT MASSACRE and the events leading up to it, Mr. Kenna denounced inthe warmest language. He had eight manuscript accounts of the events which led up to that occurrence and of the including the testimony and the sentence. The tale they told was a most horrible one. Mr. Kennan also recited other facts in ref ence to the treatment of 1 — in Swe and the hardships endured en route. One in- cident, particularly pathetic, was of a young girl under 20 years of age, who was carefully nurtured and who was of nobie famity. Other incidents were of the manner in which prison- ers, sick as well as well ones, were crawded into hospitals and forwarding prisons, The factson which these statements were came in correspondence with — — pos as people in Siberia, some of them priso 0 also knew of them of bis own 1 Wrppie presents.

A MERRY WAR, ~ Rival Chicage Editers Scern the Duelle and ; : Seek the Presaic Law. By Telerranh to the Post-Draraton. Cuicaco, III., March 22.—The novel spec- tacle of a reporter suing a rival newspaper for libel is presented here by an action for $25,000 damages to his professional reputation begun to-day by Joseph P. Steppes of the | Freie Presse against the Tino Staats Zeitung. Both papers are the leading German dailies of Chicago. The suitis the climax of a merry war which has been waged with persona! bit- terness by the two editorial chieftains since the visitof the German singing societies to NewOrleans.The Freie Presse sent 1 with the singers ae their correspondent Zeitung published a bogus special — signed Chris, Melle, stating that a terrible accident bad Befallen the spgetal train with the singers’ aboard. Four prominent Chi- cagoans were said to be killed and a score injured. The Zeitung editor was ata white heat when he discovered the paper had been made the victim of a hoax, and boldly charged the Freie Press with putting up a” on their contemporary. Bteppes, ou the tzain, was accused of sending the telegram and the Zeitung sent a commission to the South which claimed that the original message was in Steppes’ handwriting. The German fre- eaters then went for each other like Kilkenny eats, and even descended to rsonal refiec- tions of the wild western style.

Borrato, N. I., March 22.—The counsel began summing up in the Sherman trial this morning. Counsel for the defendant denied that any grain had been removed with the intention of committing a fraud. It had not been proved that Sherman appropriated any money obtained from grain sold. The indict- ment, he contended, was obtained through a misrepresentation and no evidence had been adduced to show that defendant had stolen the grain, as charged in the specific com- pieint. The District Attorney, in summing up for the people; said the defendant was speculating in grain with other people’s money. He had no right to transfer grain without warehouse receipts and yet it had been done. Balances were forced and false statements made. When the crash came it was discovered that the defendant had robbed the elevators of $300,000. Grain had been weighed over and 2 or grain mixed wih that of better quality. oth sides of the case were ably represented. Judge bert then said that in view of the long tr he would not send the case to the jury until Monday morning. Complaint te the Supreme Assembly.

INCINNATI, March 2. — Rain from midnight till noon Friday morning, rain from midnight until noon again, and the Ohio River already bank-full, formed a combina- tion of circum- stances that have excited grave ap- prehensions among river men. River navigation will certainly be closed on Monday, not to be opened tor four or ve days, and some of the railroads will be obliged to receive and de- liver passengers and freight from temporarily improvised depots. News to-night from all Kentucky points on tributaries of the Ohio in Kentucky, West Vir- ginia, Pennsylvania and Ohio is that the rivers and creeks are rising very rapidly. Th indications are that the storms yester- day and to-day, south and east of the Ohio, were attended by heavy rainfall, together with melting of snow in the mountains, and all reports hear out these inferential indica- tions. At On City and at Pittsburg the waters are rising very rapidly. At Charleston, W. Va., the Kanawha is swelling into huge proportions. All pointson the Big Sandy River report a very rapidly-rising food. The Licking River in Kentucky is on a terrible rampage. All the Oblo and Indiana rivers are rising and the Kentucky River is a great swolien and swell- ing torrent. In Cincinnati, Rat Row and Sausage Row, at tho eastern and western extremities respect- ively of the public landing, are again flooded. The river has been rising here two inches an bour, and at 10 to-night was 50 feet 2 inches high. River men estimate that the flood will be greater than the one that was here within the last fortnight, and that came within two inehes of 58 feet. River men aleo estimate that we will have 60 feet this time, and they generally underestimate a coming flood. It bas not rained since noon and stars haye been visibie at times to-night, and the weather is growing cooler, all of which are favgrable signs.

SALOON CRUSADE AT FARMINGTON, Ladies Who Are Determined: That the Liquor Shops Must Go. FARMINGTON, Mo., March 22.—The excite- ment over the proposed crusade by tne ladies onthe saloons was not allayed dy the issu- ance of warrants for the arrest of the leaders of the proposed crusade. The saloon men still defiantly refused to take the notice to quit Farmington and proposed to fight against the destruction of their liquors and saloon fixtutes which it is supposed is to follow their notice to quit. Mrs. G. . Williams. Mrs. George W. Wiliams, one of'the women against whom the saloon men ewore out war- rants for threatening the destruction of their saloons, went before a Justice of the Peace on hearing of the warrants and declared she would not give bail. She said she would go to jall in preference to giving bond for ap- poarance in court. Her friends feared the result of this bold stand, but the Justice made no difficulty out of it. He sald bail would not be requir The other ‘ladies made the same declaration Mrs. Williams bad made, with the same re- sult. The constables who served the war- rante andthe Justice of the Peace told them, as Mrs. Williams was told, that bail would not be necessary. The Prosecuting Attorney found himeelf very unpopular after the issuing of the warrants. His refusal to issue warrants against the saloon men and his readiness to issue warrants against the ladies was freely commented on. In consequence he aban- doned the idea of compelling the iadies to keep the peace. Threats of retaliation with dynamite have been made by saloon men, and whether in earnest or to create a scare, & local insurance agent bas been warned to cancel policies.on homes ot leaders in the crusade. The leaders are Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Fos- ter. They are sisters and are natives of Wash- ingtén County. They have lived in Farmington many years and are socially among the high- est ladles in the city. They are active in the work of the Presbyterian Church. The Fiack Divorce Case.

DAVID NICHOLSON, A TELLTALE PORTRAIT. A PHOTOGRAPH THAT THROWS MUCH LIGHT ON THE DASTARDLY CRIME. Peculiar Actions of Trent, Who Was Ac- cused of a Deadly Assault Upon Brooks— The Portrait of the Accused Brandishing an Big Kanife—Kemarkable Apathy of the Police. N connection with the recent dismissal of the action for as- sault to kill against Leonidas Trent, a very queer story has come to light. On the docket of the Court of Criminal Correction, on the — date of Friday, March 21, the case 2ñLw against Trent was recorded for pre- Mminary examina- tion. Opposite the name may now be found written in a small, regular hand, the words, Dis- missed for want of prosecution.’’ Trent did not appear to answer to the charge. He isa fugitive on the face of the earth, fleeing from the justice which he well knows sbould in all fairness be dealt out to him. At heart and in deed he is a murderer, and he fears for the safety of his neck. It was to his interest that he did not appear. And now the peculiar incident on which hinges all recent developments in the case has been made public. On the night of Satur- day, February 15, William Brooks was as- saulted from behind by some cowardly foe while in an unfrequented room in the regr of the house at 1218 Pine street. As he turned an immense knife was plunged into his breast, and he fell back as bis beart blood gushed forth. In five minutes he was dead. He had no time in which to proclaim the identity of his cowardly assailant. Brooks and Leonidas Trent had had trouble and the latter was at once suspected of the murder. It is now learned that afew days. before the terrible crime was committed’ Trent went to the gallery of an Olive street photographer and bad taken two tin types representing him standing in a défiant atti- tude with a look of fierce hatred on his face and a huge butcher-knife uplifted in his right hand. verything considered, this fuct is most significant. Trent and the murdered man, Brooks, were sworn enemies. On the Satar- day night preceding the stabbing they had foughtinthesaloon adjoining the house ip which Brooks met his death. nt was a porter in the saloon and Brooks in the next house. Both were colored. Trent, it appears, * engaged Brooks to do some pereubing for which he promised to pay him Brooks asked forthe money anda ohm g was thut commenced. Trent secured possession of a big butcher knife, with which he slashed Brooks across the ar used a beer glass in his defense ud badly bruised his opponent’s arm. a The next Monday morning Brooks swore out a warrant charging . —— to kill, — on the same 2 ngaged Attorney F.

On . — evening at 10:45 o’clock Brooks was stabbed. His murderer found him in the cellar and knocked on a rear door. Brooks became frightehed and blew out the light which he carried. He waited about five minutes. Then hearing no sound and thinking the coast was clear he cautiously opened the door leading to the yard. As he did soadark figure rushed in, a bare blade gieamed for an instant in the light from the open door of the adjacent saloon, to be buried tothe hilt in the breast of the defenseless negro, taken so completely by surprise as to be unable to make even a show of resistance. Trent has not been seen in this city since that night. He jamped his bond In the case against him for assault to kill without even a word to his attorney and bondsman. He made his escape in the night and was doubtless far oer before the dawn of the succeeding ay And nowa strong chain of circumstantial evidence is being forged to bind the fugitive should he be intercepted in his flight. De- tectives Scully and Danaher, who among oth- ers were working on the case, found that be- tween the Tuesday morning on whieh he was released from jail and the Satur- day night when Brooks met his death Trent had gone to the proprietor af a photograph gallery og Olive street and asked to be taken with drawn knife. Hg said he hag made a bet with a friend, who had insisted that he did not have the nerve to pose ia that po- sition. Two tin types were taken. One of these he gave to his wife. The other he kept. In all probability he still has it in his posses- sion ‘Anather very strong point ainst Trent is inthe knife with which the foul deed was done.

The full first- page advertisement of the plan brought the matter directly to the notice of the public and caused it to be discussed everywhere. There was but one opinion. That was that it would bea go“ from thestart. The appropriateness of the prize offered was uni- versally commented upon and the whole plan indorsed by all. ‘‘Talk about elec- tions,’’ said ‘were counted in all ibe in St. Louis in the last twenty-five years. It Will’sweep the city.’’ The prize offered could not be more appro- priate. Fully 80 per cent of the lady teachers of the city take a vacation trip during the sum- mer months. The purpose of the SUNDAY PoOsT-DIsPaTCOH ie to afford too of them a jaunt that will be full of amusement and in- struction combined. THE PLAX. The scheme, as fully stated yesterday, is as follows: The SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH pro- poses to pay all the expenses of a trip to Europe for the two most popular lady teach- ers in the city. Two teachers are to be chosen; that each may be acompanion in travel for the other. The selection of the ladies is to be left to a vote ot the people. The voting is to be done on the ballot printed below, which must be cut out, properly filled and mailed or sent to this office. It will be seen that the ballot is provided with blank spaces to con- tain the name of the teacher and her school, and the name and address of the voter. It should be remembered that there are two teachers to de chosen and that, therefore, every voter has a chance to benefit two of bis friends among the female pedagogues of the city. But it should also be remembered that but one teacher can be voted for on each ballot. No blank will be courted where this rule is violated. You will, therefore, require two ballots to exercise your full right of suffrage if you intend to cast but one full vote. THE TEACHERS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE. Ladies who are now teaching in any school in St. Louls, or who may become teachers In any echool before the close of the contest, are eligible to election. There is no restriction whatever. Female teachers in all schools, public or private, are included... It has been decided to confine the vote to lady teachers, but in any other respect, itis without limita- the municipal el present a pupil of any school, and you desire to repay kindpess on the part of any members of the faculty, what better pian could you hit upon than to do your best to secure them the pleasure of a jaunt to Europe? If on the contrary you have outgrown school years and haye «one out into business, it is very probable that several teachers who worked with you in your youth, are still laboring hard in institutions of learning and thatsome of them are sorely in need of the relaxation which the proposed European trip would afford. This SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH election will give you the chance to repay whatthey may have done for you. Other voters may have a sister or other relative, or perhaps a sweetheart, who is teaching the young idea to shoot. What more profitable and pleasant way would she find of spending ber summer than the one pro- posed by the SUNDAY POST-DISPATOH? Remember, that you can cast as many Dal- lots as you please. Extra copies of the SUN- DAY POST-DISPATCH will be In readiness at all times. There will be no law against repeat- ing. In fact, it is sure that the lucky teachers will be those in whose behalf this fraud is practiced most frequently. HOW TO GET THE BALLOT. The official ballot is printed in the SUNDAY POST- DISPATCH Only, and as stated above, all votes must be cast upon it. Demands for bal- lots will be supplied at all times at this office. THE TRIP. Full details of the trip, with route, ete., will be published in due time. It is proposed that it shall be first-class in every particular, and that all expenses, including hotel bills, to., shall be met by the SuNDAY Postr-Dis- PATCH. The two teachers-elect will not be required to spend one cent from the day they leave St. Louis until the day of their return. The voting will close in time to give the teachers- ampie opportunity to make all arrangements to set out at the beginning of the usual summer vacation. A large ma- jority ofthe lady teachers leave the city on summer excursions, and it is the aim to decide this contest before plans of this kind have be- come matured. The itinerary includes a visit to New York, London, Paris, Vienna and Ber- lin and other places in the old world, covering points of interest to the European tourist. Ample time will be given to see everything of moment. The tourists will be lodged daly at first-class hotels, aud their tickets will m- elude carriage rides to places of interest in the neighborhood of the cities visited, etc. In fact, it will be a trip which will afford both recreation and instruction to the ladies who are chosen. In England, after the tourists leave Liver- pool, they will journey through the Peak Dis- trict of Derbyshire, stopping at Rowsley to visit Hadom Hall and Chatsworth; thence to London, where there will be several days of carriage riding with visits to Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, the Parliament a teacher chosen is unable or does not wish to make the trip, then she will have the priv!- lege of selecting another teacher te whom she can transfer the privilege. She will be required, however, to select a teacher employed in some schooi in the city. Should she decline to make such ssiection, then theright to make the trip shall go to the candidate receiving the next highest number of votes. HOW TO SEND THE BALLOTS.

By Telegraph to the Post-DisraTcu. Carro, III., March 22.—A sensational episode occurred here yesterday evening. As the north bound Illinois Central train passed the stone depot halfa mile above the passenger depot a man jumped from the train, fell heavily to the ground, for the train was run- ning at a good rate of speed, but picked bim- self up immediately and hurried away down town. The train had dashed along but haif a square further when a young woman sprang from the steps of one ofthe coaches. She fell, eatriking her head a fearful blow on the gE ed pavement, and lay unconscious till pieked up by freilroad men employed inthe yards. She was carried to the stone depot, and Dr. Parker harriedly summoned. While unconscioug she called for Frank Ward and Frank Brockman alternately, the former being formerly of Anna, III., and at one time in charge of the news stand at the Halliday House in this city. The latter isa St. Louis traveling man, who was here yesterday and the day before, and who was the man that sprang from the train just before she did. When consciousness was restored she said her name was Maud Robin- son of Anna, though she had registered at Mary Lon of Belleville. She said she came own to meet Brockman here and to de married tohim. According to an agreement between them they had concluded-to go to Anna and have the ceremony performed, but he had jumped from the train to abandon ber and slie determined he should not get away, so she also jumped. But Brockman got away. He took the south bound Mobile & Ohio train that left the Union Depot a few minutes be- fore the girl was brought back to the hotel. Brockman’s friends say there is nothing in the girl’s story beyond that they had an appointment to meet here. The giri is a rather pretty brunette, about 18 years old. She was able to be up to-day though suffer- ing from a bad bruise on the back of the head. Her father and brother came down from Anna after her.

Writs Issued Yesterday Against Ex-Presi- dent Miller and William F. Macklisn—A Writ Alse Issued Against Emil Thomas— The Case of Ineligibilty Made Out Against Directer August Reimier—The Cases in the Court of Appeals Te- Morrow. By Telegraph to the Post-Disratcn. JEFFERSON Crrn. Mo., March 22. HE Attorney General instituted quo war- ranto proceedings in the Supreme Court to- day for the purpose of ousting W. F. Macklin ann Charles F. Miller from the Schoo Board of St. Louis. The objectof the pro- ceedings isto test the constitutionality of what is known as the Drabelie Schoo! Law. The writs are returnable the first day of the April term. Similar proceedings were insti- tuted by the Attorney General against Emil Thomas, who was recently elected Marshal of St. Louis ataspecial election. It is held in the petition thatthe special election was il- legal. In this case also the writ is returnable on the first day of the April term, The School Beard Cases. To-morrow in the Court of Appeals. Messrs. Macklin, Rogers, Bollman, Sheahan, DodZier, Kelly, Bartholdtand Reimier will have to come forward and prove to the satisfaction of the Court that they hold tax receipts which guality them under the law to hold seats in the School Board. The attempts made by Macklin, Rogers, Bartholdt, Bollman and Relmler to save themselves from a show down has created a grave suspicion that they will not be able to meet withthe requirements. Should this prove to be the case writs of ouster will be issued against them,and a new school election will have to be called, They are determined that if they are com- jlied to vacate to pull the whole School oard structure down with them if they can, and that is the object of the quo warranto proceeding begun in the Supreme Court by Attorney-General Wood yesterday. The reason why proceedings were begun against Mackiin as weil as Miller, is because Attorney- General Wood refused to issue the writs, unless application was made to have them made out against one man of each faction in the board. The Mackiinites are perfectly willing to get out, providing they can pull their enemies out with thom. The evidence on which the parties who in- stituted the quo warranto proceedings against Messrs. Mackiin, Rogers, Bartholdt and Boll- man rely to prove the ineligibility of those gentiomen has been frequently published, but the case which they have made out on August Reimier has pot yet been made known to the public. It is here presented for the first time and will be found interesting. It ie as follows: REIMLER’S RECEIPTS.

CONROY’S SWORN STATEMENT. State of Missouri, City of St. Louls—ss. I, Peter Conroy, a resident of the city of &t. Louis, being duly sworn, upon his oath, says: That on October 22, 1889, his wife, Wilnelmina Conroy, purchased of Kate Stanley, for the sum of $1,000, lots Nos. 92, 93, 94 and % of Edward P. Gray’s subdivision of Vine Grove place, and in city biock No. 8712 of the city of St. Louis, fronting 190 feet on the south line of St. Louis avenue by a depth southwardly 160 feet to the south line of said subdivision; that at the date of said purchase the said lots were dellnquent for the State, school and city taxes assessed for the year 1888, and like taxes were also due and payable forthe year 1889. In said pur- chase Mrs. Stanley agreed to allow the amount of said taxes to be deducted from the amount of said price of $1,000. AMant took the deed from M. F. Stanley to Mr. Leo Rassieur’s office to have bim examine the same,to see if it was properly drawn and executed. Mr. Rassieur passed upon the sufficiency of said deed. Afterwards Mr. Rassieur sent for affiant to come down to his office, when he explained to him 2 that Mr. August Relalerjwished to qualify himself to become a school director and wanted to buy the above mentioned property (from my wife) for a short time, so thathe (Reimler) could pay the said taxes of 1888 and 1889, then due on said property. Whereupon afflantand his wife executed a deed conveying said property to said August Reimler, but no money was paid afiant or his wife. Mr. Rassieur kept the money and all the deeds. Afiant and wife signed a docu- ment agreeing to repay to said Reimler the purchase money (to wit: $1,000) at any time within six months, upon Reimier reconveying the said property to afflant’s wife and the surrender of the tax ro- ceipts for the years 1888 and 1889. Affiant or his wife did not pay any of the ex- pense attending these transfers or for record- ing of the same. Affiant says that on February 5, 1890, said Leo Rassieur informed him that said Reimer wanted his money returned to him, Reimler. Afljant says that he told Mr. Rassieurhe thought{tne matter was to run for ek months. Mr. Kassieur said the agreement was at anytime within six months. Affiantand wife agreed that Reimier sbould have his money returned to him, which affiant supposed Mr. Rassieur did, as Mr. Reimler reeonveyed said property to affiant’s wife. As Mr. Rassieur explained the matter to bim, afflant says that as he under- stood the matter, the convenance to Mir. Reimler was only dnee tojiet Mr. Reimler pay the taxes forthe two years heretofore men- tioned. His PETER x CONROY. Witness: Fielding Mansfield.

A GENERAL AWAKENING TO A PROPER AP- PBRECIATION OF VALUES. A Heavy Week’s Business Transacted, Mainly in Residence Property—Im- portant Sales On All the Principal West End Streets at Higher Prices—Agents’ Schedules ef the Detaile—Transfers and Bullding Asseciation News. EAL ESTATE matters are growing more inter- esting as the spring sea- ‘som comes on and even now, early as itis, buy- ers are out every fine day looking in all direc- tions to find something they can invest or spec- ulatein. Ordinarily the | investor looks for im- proved property with an assured income, but once in awhile he will buy and improve a va- cant site if the loeality promises good rentals. Speculators are giv- en more to operating vacant sites in sections where frequent sales afford a reasonable assurance of making a quick profit, even if itis a small one, and it is that class of buyers whom agents are most likely to favor, as the opportunit{®& for them to make commissions out of that class of operators are very much better than when dealing with buyers who are never ready to se)! unless they double their money, and slow to let go at that as not a few persons are who do not know when to take a good thing when they have a chance to. The temptation though to bold on is great for prices are ad- vancing with remarkable strides in ail quarters of the city, so much so in fact, it would seem that local investors and specu- lators are just commencing to appreciate the truth and force of what they have heard so many times from non-residents; namely, that St. Louis real estate is cheaper than property in any other city inthe world of correspond- ing size and commercial importance. he most atrikiag evidence of the apprecia- tion of the truth of this oft told tale, is seen in the very marked activity in the local realty market during the whole of the winter just past. Within that brief lapse ot time, more down town Dusiness property was sold than ever before during a corresponding period and the at paid for it astonished mest peo- ple familiar with values, and the surprise was much greater in every instance whea it be- came known that THE SHREWD BUYERS had rejected a big bonus to transfer their purchase to someone else who would not seea good thing when it wasinsight. It is within the bounds of reason to say that there has not been a purchase of central business property within the past three months which could not be closed out at a profit of 2% per cent within forty-eight hours after it is known that the premises are again upon the market. Many of the local capitalists know this and they are learn- ing very fastthatthe number of men in St. Louis who can buy and manage a property requiring an outlay of $500,000 in cash can no longer be counted on the fingers of one’s bands, as it were. Wealthy men have become so numerous here during the past decade that competition among them is becoming quite marked, for thetimeis past never to return again when a baker’s dozen of them can stand off and bear prices of very valuable estates with the seif-consolation that sales must be made to them or the property remain unsold for the reason that no one out- side of their limited circle is financially able t o buy. In the details given by agents in their ap- pended schedules it will be observed that hundreds of feet of Olive street ground west of Pendleton have been sold within the past forty-eight hours at from $55 to $60 o foot, and this same ground cost the grantors who purchased it less than $50 a foot within a month. Mr. Crosswhite, who has sold heavily. bought his ground from S. H. Leatbe at $50 a foot within the past month, and the Catlin ground, where Messrs. Pike and Lawyer Klein have bought, was pur- chased by the grantors less than a month ago for something under $45 a foot. Washington avenue is making an equally good record, the prices of Delmar avenue lots all the eyond Goodfellow are going up y Pine street, too, is keeping fully abreast with its more aristocratic rivals to the north. In the Mgr! of Taylor avenue, where Mrs. Eliza McKee, Mr. Thornburg, the paint dealer, and others bought last fall at about $60 a foot, prices have now reached $90 and $100. A HEAVY PINE STRERT PURCH ASE. largest sales yesterday, in West Pine street property, was consummated by the firm of L. V. Cartan & Co. The property they sold belonged to D. 8. Brown and the purchaser was K. C. Sim- mons, who bought the southeast cor- ner of Pine street and Taylor ave- nue for a residence site. The ground he has acquired has a frontage of 237 feet on Pine street by a depth of 213 to an alley on Taylor avenue, and is one of the most desirable home sites in the West End. In perfecting this sale the 100 feet at the cor- ner was valued at $100 afoot, less than $90 a foot having been paid for the inside lots. This sale affordsavery good example of the in- creasing value of groundin that locality, as the same property Mr. Simmons bas bought was sold by Cartan & Co. for Samuel Kennard at $77 a foot to Mr. Brown, the grantor in the present instance. The prospects are now that three of the corners will be handsomely improved with elegant residences, as three of them are owned by parties of ample means to induige their taste and ambition to have most elegant homes. John T. Davis, the genial millionairé, owns the whole block at the southwest corner, and it is said that he now has an architect et ae making plaas fora new home which will be erected upon the block at an expense pf $250,000. The nortn- east corner of Pine street and Taylor avenue is owned by Judge W. Hough, who bas 100 feet there which he purchased at $80 afoot within the past six months. These are good evidences of enhancing val ues and the improvements to follow give them stability of anything but a declining character. ANOTHER FINE SUBDIVISION. Gen. J. 8. Fullerton bas notified the Street Commissioner that he proposes to proceed without delay to grade and otherwise improve the streets and alleys at his own expense in the territory bounded by Boyle an avenues, McPherson avenue and Olive street. This is Gen. Fullerton’s property and he does not care to wait forthe city to make the necessary improvements, preferring to have them completed at once, so asto get his fine residence property on the market without de- ley. This work will cost a large sum and it will save the city much expense, Which would otherwise have to be borne in the future. The city willestablish the grades and the rest of the work will be managed by engineers of the owner’s selection. The property will owin to its location bring g prices when plac on the market. The General has been con- — this improvement for a long time as * PREPARING FOR CAPITALISTS. Bernard Kernaa, chairman of the commit- tee appointed to perfect arrangements to in- duce an excursion of Eastern capitaiiste to inspect the commercial and industrial attrac- tions of this city, says that be will call his contreres together in a few days,as soon as he gets a little spare time, and then set the ball rolling and keep it going until the purpose is accomplished. . Chas. H. Turner & Co. sold 560x258 feet of ground, situate on the east side of Grand ave- nue on the hill south of the Suspension we idee, at % a foot from Ellena A. Lee of Was n, D, O., to James M.

LEBANON, Mo., March 22.—Belle Swan, a ‘*trusty’’ at the county jail, ran away to-day and has not yet been apprehended, though she will certainly be retaken in a few days. She was held because of an escapade in which she took part some days ago with another woman who was liberated on bond. Twomen had been arrested in Franklin Township, sus- ected of imcendiarism and were de- guarded over night by the constable of that township to be brought to jail the next day. During the night the Swan woman and a woman named Smith entered the house and held the con- stable while bis prisoners ran away. The women then made the constable and his deputy prisoners and left the house. The next day they were arrested. The Smith woman gave bond. The Swan woman was permitted te go about the jail by Sheriff Sharp, and to-day she abused his good nature by taking French leave. One of the men was re- captured and is still in jail.

Regarding the present financial de ion among the farmers of the West, he said: The one reason for low prices in the West comes from insufficient money in circulation to carry on business cheaply. I do not believe anything can be done that will ever us enough except free coimage of silver. bills, or greenbacks, only go into- cireulation when some bank or other purchases, and then only because somebody borrows the at the bank at banking rates.

Of course the State will pe Democratic, but the great fight will De inside the ranks ot that party, At present there are four can- didates for the nomifation—Throckmortona, Hoge, Wheeler and MeDonald. Ot the quartette Türeckmorton, perhaps, Das the widest reputation. He came to Texas away before the war and achieved promin- ence in the Legisiature of the State before before either of his competitors had attained thelr majority. In 1861, wen the question of secession came before the Texas Legisiature, he was ne of seven menin that body who' sternly \ posed secession. While making a speech ‘aniéh now fends Iike a prophecy he was hissed by his fellow-members. Burning with indigtation he turned upon them and e- claimed: *‘When the rabbie hisses, well may Ie patriot trembie.’’ It was aforegone con- , @lasion that the State would go with the Other Southern States, and Throckmorton ac- _@alesced. His war record was not a brilliant one, After the war on account of his! con- Servatiem and the position taken by him on the question of secession he was looked to as the most available man with which to concl- liate the people of the Nofth, and was elected Governor by an overwhelming majority, but in afew months after his inaugnratiop he was removed as , ‘AN IMPEDIMENT TO RECONSTRUCTION.’’ He practiced law until 1872, when he was a candidate for Congressmai at large, but was defeated inthe Democratic Convention held at Corsicana by Asa H. Willie and Roger Q. Mills. . Two years later he Was elected to Congress from the MeKinney district. In 1874 he was a candidate for the United States Senate against Massey and Reagan. Maxey was elected. Four years later ho was a candidate for Gov- nor against R. B. Hubbard and W. W. Long. The campaign was unusually fierce, and the result was a deadlock and O. M. Ro secured the prize. In 1881 he was again a candidate for the United States Senate, but was again defeated by Gen. Maxey. During most of this time he was serving the people of the McKinney District in the House of Representatives, exeept in 18, when he was one of the Democratic electors for the State at large. In 1682 he was ain elected to Congtgss and served until „ When he déelined a re-election. Since then he bas been in private iife. In 1888 he Was a Delegste at Large to the Democratic National Convention.

Afew years ago he was yvanking a hand- press on a weekly ‘paper at Tyler. From there he went to Quit- man, Wood County, where he edited a paper, set type and st udied law. He was 800n admitted tothe bar and began ne practice of his profession.

During the imbrogiio over the seating of Coke as Governor at Aus- tin in 1874, Wheeler was mayor of the city ana it is due to his prompt and de- cisive work that a ae ge Ag was prevented. From Austin he moved astiand County. In 1882 he was elected District Judge, and during the time that fence-catters were doing % much to destroy the progress of that seo- tion of the State he made a State reputation on account of the course pursued by him ia , a stop to thatespecies of lawlessness. br, Wheeler isa men who has the courage ot hie convictions and has never yet been khown to shrink from any issue that con- ‘fronted him.

O., Mareh 22.—The follow- ing letter, which explains itself, was sent to Prestdent Harrison on October 1, and up to the present time he has not accorded the writer of it as much as the bare courtesy of an acknowledgment. WASHINGTON, D. C., 806 Eighteenth street, Northwest, Oot. 1, 1889. To His Bxodlency Benjamin Harrison, President of the United States: Sin—lLam advised that it is to yourself I should address this communication, Permit me, sir, to inform ou that in April — Witte, Madeleine elouvard, and my- zelt, were engaged by your steward, Mr. Hugo Zieman, for service at the White House. We were to receive between us $100 a month, or Wo each, with board 4nd lodging. Our engagement was for the entire summer season, Which includes all the months up to the latter end of September. My wife was to serve as cook and las butler. She commenced work on April8, whilel was informed that 1 would not be needed before the ist ot July or the Ist of August. With that under- standing and relying upon the ment which was to gin not than the lst of August, I left my wile in Wash- ington On April (and went to France to spend some time with my agg | and to bring my children over to America. Before the end of July Il came back to Washington and brought my little boy and giti wich me. Theo 1 was disappointed to be told by your steward that my engagement could not be carried out, for no fault ok mine, and to find that my wife, who had been engaged for the summer, had been suddenly - dle- missed from the White House on June 13. To take service with the White House, whicn she was assured would last through the sum- mer and which she hoped to make permanent, she had 4 up aeomfortable place in the house of Mr. Bancroft, the historian. Mr. Bancroft’s butler and others were witnesses tothe terms of our engagements, but I am confident your Own steward will not deny the facts. Let it is vain that I haye represented to your steward that he should either fulfill the engagements or recompense us for the disappointment and e loss we have suffered. I have full confidence, Mr. President, that ou only want to know the facts to do justioe to my wife anu myself. My wife was paid ber wages for June. I think a fair statement of our claim would be $450, made up in this way: On acoount of my wife — wages for three months, at 50. $150; board and lodging at $40, 20; on account of myself; wages for two months August and September, at $50—$100; board an lodging at $40—$80; total, $450. 1 feel certain, Mr. President, that you will see the jastice of this claim, and that in this case, as in all others, you will do full justice as soon as you learn the facts.

Mentana Live Stock Interests, By Telegraph to the Posr-DIsPaTcu. HELENA, Mont., March 22.—Now that the weather bas settled cattle growers are coming in and some idea of the effects of the late biiz- gards may be formed. The second storm was the most severe in ite consequences on live stock. An estimate of the losses places the average ata little over Sper cent, but, con- sidering that stock went into winter quarters in an impoverished condition, the result of scarcity of both feed and water last summer, this loss is considered very light. The sec- tions where the losses were heaviest are the region of Flathead Lake and the counties of Madison and Beaver Head. There still remains a critical month for stock raisers—until the grass comes up— but with an abundance of snow on the moun- talns, a good season is anticipated. ‘sheep are n good eondition, having wintered * and last year’s enormous crop of wel will be increase at least 20 pee cent.

Dick, a well known attorney in this city. Justice Miller in the Police Court the other day plainly expressed the opinion that it was a case of at- tempted blackmall.

She admits the marriage in New York andthe birth of three children; that the two girls are now at school in Belgium and that the doy is living with her. She admits, also, that she did wrong on March 8, bat thiaks the circumstances oughtto be considered in palliation of her offense. The doctor, she says, has been ab. sor bed in his profession, devoting nearly his entire time to studying the science and prac- tice of his special branch of medicine, thereby neglecting her. ‘ hile brooding over this state of affairs she met Ewell A.

Four trotting stallions, Robert MoGregor, Baron Wilkes, William L. and Rex Wilkes, are advertised to stand at that price, all four of them being in and near ngton. Mrs. John M. Clay, widow of Henry Clay’s last son, bas just issued her first catalogue of the stud of thoroughbreds founded by the great Commoner. It isa peculiar book of the kind. J. K. Megibben & Co.’s string of thorough- breds consists of eighteen horses, among them being the Kentucky Derby candidates, Eberlee, W. G. Morris and Avaudale. James Rodegap, who prepared Spokane for his Derby victories last year, is training them in Harrison County, Ky . 0 are 161 Kanes in training at Louls- ville, Imp. Bag Gallop bas met with much favor in Kentucky as a stallion, although he is practically untried there. It is stated by an authority that 75 per cent of the trotting and thoroughbred brood-mares in Kentucay are barren or have slipped their foals this season. The loss is not only large. but it will cause a shortage of yearlings next sprin rT he trotting stock belonging to the estate of the late T. J..Mezibben will be sold at auction in Lexington, Ky., next month. Some glilt- edged mares are among the number. Mise Egbert, 2:29%, by Egbert, dam Miss Patchen by Mambrino Patchen, will be bred for the first time thie season. She will be mated to Re-Election, by Electioneer, dam Lady Russell (sister to Maud S., 2:08%). Nancy Lee (dam of the sensational wag Hanks), has been sent to San Mateo, Cal., to be bred to the great Stamboul. Victor Von Bismark (sire of Edgemark, 2:16, as a 4-year-old), willnot be a public stallion from now on. G. G. White, his owner, will keep him to serve hisown mares at the Gilt | Edge Stock farm, in Barbour Vounty, Ky. Valdosta, bay mare, 5 years, by Nntwood, dam Emma Arteburn by Mambrino Patchen wiilbe bred to Stamboul this season, Her only foal, a 2-year-old filly by Artillery, is a magn ificent youngster and great things are expected from this year’s mating. Nola, chestnut filly, 4 years. by Nutwood, dam Belle Bowman by Bowman’s Clark Chief, will be trained by Mr. W. 8. Hobart at San Mateo, Cal., this year and campaigned. Many think she will get a mark of 2:20 or better. Little Odd, brown mare, 3 years, by Baron Wilkes, dam Odd Stocking by Happy Medium, will be stinted to Guy Wilkes this spring. One of the most successful and prolific brood mares ever owned by Col. R. P. Pep oe Frankfort, Ky., was Crop. She was by lot, Jr., out of a Canadian mare. Col. Pepper paid $100 for her at an executor’s sale, and before she died he sold over $20,000 worth of her colte and fillies. Her ears were frozen off when a oolt, hence the name. Turf Talk. The $8,000 colt, Thor, by Alcazar, 2:20%, recently purchased by Mr. G. M. Fogg, Nash- ville, at the Rose sale in New York, has ar- rived at Melrose Stud, the property of Mr. Fogg. It is rumored around Nashville that a great stock company is being formed at that city for the establishment ofa Freat trotting horse breeding farm. G. M. Fogg, M. M. Gardner and Dr. Wm. Morrow are at the bead ot the enterprise. Reolair, the famous filly which made the fortune of her owners, exercises with the Dwyer string and looks sound and good. She has not been pushed much this year yet, and her trainer says she will not be for some time. She is expected to do great things this year. For some time it bas been given out that Ei Rio Rey. the unbeaten colt, would not start at Nashyille. Thie is a mistake.

A, W.—Cycling in Philadelphia—Chat. NE ofthe chief advant- Rages of membership in the League of American ‘Wheelmen is the right of members to particl- pate in League meets owe and tours. The local members ef that organ- ization will therefore be giad to know that the arrangements for the r- annual meeting to be held at Columbia on July 4 and 5, have been consummated. These meetings have become such an important fac- tor in cycling circles that they now extend over a period of several days, and are always accompanied with the greatest gayety. Last year Sedalia held high carnival while the meet was in progress there, and her riders are considerably elated over the success which attended it. The interest awakened in this branch of athletics has since made rapid strides among them, and wheelmen are now found there by the score. Chief Consul Holm visited Columbia last Sunday for the purpose of perfecting the pro- gramme, which will be as follows: First day, July 4—Reception of guests; 9a. m., parade; 9 A y la. m., division meeting for the the nomina- tion of officers for the ensuing year; 12 m., dinner at the State University campus; 2 p. m. races. There will be ten events, among which will be the State championship, tor which costly prizes will be given. The annual banquet will be served at 8 p. m., and prom- ises to be an elegant affair at which some en- tirely new features will be introdu The morning of the second day, July 6 will be utilized to take several ruts over the finest gravel roads in — State leadin een 88 A er rare uuspices of the Touring Committee of the Missouri Division.

Leisen of the Pennsyl- vania Bicycle Club, who has long been con- nected with the sport as one of its chief ex- ponents at Philadelphia, is visiting the city and is stopping at the Southern. In conver- sation with the cycling editor of the Post- wheeling at his native city which will no oubt be of more than passing interest to local riders. He says Philadelphia at present has six bicycle clubs, the average membership of which is nearly 135, and innumerable smaller ‘organizations. The Pennsylvania Club is the oldest as well as the wealthiest, owning its club-house and grounds, which cost some $16,000. Club runs, which do more than all else to hold a cvcling club together, are well attended and the riding district embraces the famous Lancaster }wheellng he gave an interesting account of d Pike and various other elegant macadamized | roads leading to Reading, Norristown, Ches- ter and other smaller pointe in Pennsylvania, as well as to Morristown, Haddonfield, N. J., and Wilmington, Del. He spoke very highly of St. Louis“ granite streets, and said the prevalling cobble-stone pavement in Poiladeiphia prevented the use of the wheel for business purposes. When the fact is taken into consideration it is asource of wonder to local riders that wheeling flourishes there at all, as were this condition of things to be prevalent bere, cycling would never have as- sumed the immense proportions it has. Mr. Leisen intends to make this city his future home, and in that event will take a prominent hand in loeal cycling matters. Cycling Chat. John S. Richards is back from Pennsylvania. The German Cyclists’ Union is now said to have 1,400 members. Capt. Leisen will accompany the Missouris on their run to Barthold’s to-day. The English Road Records Association has allowed the claim for the fifty-mile bicycle record in 2 h. 50 m. 5s, New Jersey has seventeen L. A.

There are in St. Louis tobacco factories 2,479 employes. Of these 1,221 are boys and men, and 1,258 girls and women. The latter, it will be observed, are in the majority. Of the men and boys ninety- eight are boys, and of the women and giris ninety-four are girls. Butofthe latter what are classed as girls?

He needs cut a glance to see what these peo- ple are called upon to do to earn a living. First the tebacco is received in hogsheads Liberated from this it goes to the steam box. Then comes the stemming, the wrapper pick- ing, the wringing, the ‘‘wrapping on, the dipping, the pressing, etc. The steaming, of course, amounts to but littie. The leaf is taken from the hogshead and placed in the steam box by men who are well able to stand the work and the atmosphere. Then comes stemming. This work is performed by women and gairis—occasionally boys are employed, hut women and girie are the rule. The stem- mers are crowded into one large apartment. It may be ventilated sufficientiy, and it may not be, according to opportunity. Each stripper is aliowed what is called a bunk, or two may ve placed in one bunk if necessity presses. This bunk is nothing more than a board set up on either side of a low stool. On one side the stripper throws the stems, on the other the leaf. The latter is taken away at short inter- vais, while the stems remain until the close of the day’s work, when they are weighed and each stripper is given credit for so many pounds. Formerly the rule was to pay so much per pound for the leaf, but as the cheap manufacture of tobacco plug was perfected it was made necessary to pay by the stems, in order to keep the other parts of the iactories close up to the stemmers. After the stemmers come the wrapper Pickers. These also are women, generally 15 to 20 years old. They are, as a rule, alittle more experienced, and are a little better paid, though their work is not as hard as that of the stemmers. Then there isthe wringing department. Here the licorice and other in- gredients is put in, the tobacco is allowed to stand, and at the end of the required period it is ready for pressing. The work in this de- artment is All done by men and machinery. ‘he tebacco, or the mixture, is fed into the machine by men and comes out plugs ready for the wrappers off. N Just why the employes of this department should be cailed ‘‘wrappers off“ is uncertain. They are more clearly wrappers ‘‘on,’’ but as they are more generally known as ‘‘wrappers off’’ so they must stand. A great may men are employed in this part of the work but the 1 it must be said, are women end girls. The work consists in wrapping the already cut and pressed ping. They wrap on, not off. Tue work seems simple, but they are asa rule the best paid employes of & factory. After this comes the co and finishing, which le mostly done by men—or it may be sald altogether 0.

With thin skirts, shortened somewhat, short sleeves, rolled up, thin waiste, double back—thelr attire is rather undress than dreas, but it is the only one in which they can work, and the resort to these expedients is often as necessary as it is for a rolling-mili band to strip to the costume of a pugilist ready for the ring. A great many questions are asked as to the character of people working in tobacco factories. There is no doubt that it is as good as that of any other class similiarly sur- rounded. The testimony of those who have been the longest in the service is thatas a rule the women work honestly for all th get.

There are now four supports, or, perhaps, they can be called ‘‘jack-screws,’' under the wheat mar- ket. There are crop and weather conditions, export buying and clearances, the poliucal situation abroad and manipulation. None of them appear to be very stable, but they work the market, af any rate, through the fears of operators if tu no other way. The calm confidence that butashort time ago in- spired the numerous short sellers of wheat, bas en-; tirely disap p eared, and it has given way to nervous apprenension. There was a time when lecal specu- lators would not have regarded a 4c or 5c advance with much alarm, but that much elevation in grice from the bottom this season has run most of the shorts in. The shortage in May, that at around 76c was probably 10,000,000 bu or more, is duced to comparstively small dimensions. the only local trader who has shown nerve enough to stand by his line is Moses Fraley and he keeps on pluckily selling more and more as the market ad- vances. Floor gossip has it that Fraley is short includ- ing his sales against his cash holdings of 1,500.000 bu contract gradé, any where from 3,000,000 to 5,- 000. 000 bu. The outside is uadoubtedly greatly exag- gerated. About all the other bears have covered their shorts and those hanging on have only small lines out. Even that plunger of plungers, John W. Kauft - mann, who slings a 10,000, bu line at times, is suppesed to have got out of about all his short wheat, The fact that prices were unusually low for the season of the year had a great deal to do with frightening the shorts. They couldn’t look for any great decline from 786. and it might see a 250 advanee or more from that figure, and they would not take the chances. The crop dam- age influence had some effect upon the market, but lately has shown signs of decay. This was evidenced by the new crop options which have barely responded toa strong and advancing May. That there has been damage ig sure, but how much no one is pre- pared to say. Present advices incicate that the favorable weather is improving crop prospects greatly. Wheat that had every appearance of being dead is coming out wonderfully under the influence vt mild spring weather and rains. Samples of wheat shown here lately, the tops of which were brown and lifeless looking, have generally hed healthy roots.

Should all be located on one street, as in many other cities. the ruling figures would be just double. South Water street, Chicago, is an awful example of this—every man on the street being ground to death by the land- lord, and a big break between the owner and tenant there is inevitable in the near future. Thoee Third street men, Ii see, sre having their rents gradually raised. There is plenty opportunity, however. to avoid paying too much. Let six or eight of the lead- ing houses come down here on Main street, where we have fine buildings and low rents, and the new railroads and depets coming on the Levee will in- crease the facilities and advantages of this location, A move of this kind would leave Third street to cab- . bage, calves and farmers.

It ie = Fi meets quadren- 1 5 nially. Such has been the growth of the church during the past Gecade that ite General Oonference now stands second among the great Protestant re- ligious assembiies of the world. The General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church alone excelsitin the num- ber of communicants represented and the value of property owned by Protestant Church authorities. The Methodists inthis country, white and black, and of all kinds, number more than five millions (actual communi- — Richard M. Scruggs, in Charge of Ali Local Ar- rangements. Gants). The M. E. Church has nearly three million and the M. E. Church South bas about one million eight hundred thousand. Prior to 1844 there was no division among the American Methodists. One Gea- eral Oonference represented the whole church. At the quadrennial session pf that conference in New York in May, 1544, a division occurred, caused by the slavery agitation. Bishop Jas. O. Andrews of Georgia had married a lady who owned,by inheritance, a num- ber of siaves. The Bishop had no legal right to Iilberate hit * them. Not willing 2 . to tolerate the o- n- ership of slave prop- a} \ erty by one so bigh in the councils of the the church, the dele- J . Bishop Apérews. gates to the conference from the! Eastern and Northern States succeeded’ in suspending the Bishop from the duties of his office. This caused the withdrawalof all of the Gelegates fromthe alave-holding States and Territortes. After a very animated and long protracted debate Ane final separation was ar- ranged, and the Methodists of the Southern States were no longer under the same juris- Giction as those of the North and East. The Ging delegates called a convention at lie, which was held in May, 1845. Lovick Peirce of Georgia was elected ident of the convention, and thus de- dame the father of the new denomina- tion. He was alter wards elected bishop, and served sill his death, which oe curred a few years ago. His son, Geo. F. Peirce,also became a popular bishop in the church. The Secretary of the convention was the celebrated Dr. Thos. 8. £Railston, author of ‘‘Ralston’s Elements of Divin- ity,’’ astandard the- ological work the world over. He Bishop Peirce. served only a few days, when the late Dr. Thos. O. Summere of ashvilie was elected Secretary, an office he as held for forty-four years without interruption. Dr. alston was his as- sistant, bowever, at the convention. The Gelegates to the convention permanently or- ganized the M. K. Church in the South,“ adopted a book of discipline similar to that of the old General Conference, and containing ; exactly the same doctrinal teachings and the same forms and ceremonies; in fact, no other difference than that of jurisdiction tuen ex- isted between the two branches of Methodism. Missouri was represented in the convention Andrew Monroe, Jesse Green, John Glan- ville, Wesley prowelnge William m, John H. Linn, oseph oyle and Thos.

Few men have ever beild higher place in any denomination of Christians than did Bishop Marvin, of Missouri. He was one of the popular preach- ers whotook hold of the denomination after the war and helped reorganize and develop it. He was well-known in St. Louis, but his popularity was as extensive * the church itself. He was one of the brightest _ lights of American 7 Methodism. 2, : The General * ference of the M. E. Church South has held ten quadren- nial sessions, two of which wore oon venedin this city. D. R. McAnally. The approaching session will be the largest ever held. The denomination has made such rapid strides that new plans have been fonnd to be necessary for convening and accommodating the Quadrennial Confer- ence. Heretofore the delegates bave been en- tertained by the Methodist ana other Chris- tian families ofthe city where they met, but the entertainment of 400 delegates for five or six weeks is too much of an undertaking for the Methodist families of St. Louis any other city. At the sion, held at Richmond, * May, 1886, the conference arranged for the collection of a fund to pay the traveling and boarding expenses of the delegates to the ap- proaching conference, and appointed a com- mittee to make all necessary arrangements for the transportation, board and accommo- dution of the delegates and conference off cere and for the sessions of the body. S8o a railroad magnate, a dry goods prinoe, a cattle king, 4 celebrated editor and a great preacher have in hand now the work of preparation for the big conference. THE COMMITTEE is composed of Col. C. W. Cole, railroad manager of Nashville, and who is at the head ofthe L. X N. system of railroads; R. M. Scruggs of thiscitv, head of the dry goods house of Scruggs, Vandervoort & Bar- ney; G. H. Sayder of Georgetown, Tex., the celebrated ‘‘cattie king of the Panhandle re- glon; Rev. J. J. Lafferty, D. D., editor of the Richmond Christian Advocate; and Rev. C. T. Andrews of Mississippi. These gentlemen bave begun the work entrusted to them. They have apportioned the duties in givin Mr. Cole the matter of transportation — Mr. Scruggs the local arrangements. They Con- the corner of Sixteenth and Pine streets, as the piace for holding the conference, and the church willbe prepared for the great body of Methodist preachers and laymen under the direction of Mr. Scruggs and the as- tor, v.

Rev. John Matthews. The com- mittee has opened headquarters in the Amer- ican Central buildings and there the work and correspondence is already assuming large proportions. The committee will have charge of the fund raised for the expenses of the del- egates, will provide hotel and other accom- modations for delegates and visitors, and will have many matters to attend to requiring a great deal of labor. R. M. Scruggs, having entire charge of the local arrangements, will doubtiess be much L consulted by hotel and board ings-house people desiring to secure the patronage of the deie- ates. The plan of entertaining the delegates u hotels and boarding-houses will not pre- vent many families selecting friends among the delegations and entertaining them, how- ever, though it will doubtless relieve some of the emberrassments which have been anticl- ated since the announcement that the con- erence is to be held in this city.

The St. Louis Local Ticket Brokers’ Associ- ation met yesterday afternoon at No. 107 Noth Fourth street, with J. Claude in the chair and S. Steiner officiating as secretary. They met for the purpose of oonsidering the amendments to the interstate commerce Dill, introduced in Congress last Monday by Mr. Baker of New York, chairman of the House Committee on Commerce. The bill among other things prohibits the payment by railroad companies of commissions in any form, and any man who receives any salary or compensation for selling passenger tickets for a road shall be held to be an agent of the company, and iteball be liable for his acts. All regularly appointed agents are also re- quired to have certificates of their appoint- ment exposed to public view in their offices. It is to be unlawful for any person, not holda- ing the certificate referred to, to sell, barter or transfer for any consideration any ticket of any common oarrier. A Une of §5,000 is posed for violating this provision. It provided that common carriers shall, reqest of a purchaser, redeem an unused ticket at its cost price, and if the ticket bas | | Onthearch were placed only been used in part the unused portion shall be redeemed atthe price paid less the regular schedule price for the distance used, if presented within ninety days after pur- chase. The sale by any person ofany partly used ticke except as above is made a violation of the act. These features of the amendments offered BY Mr. Baker are, of course, aimed at the cket brokers, and are intended to wipe them ence. Aj the meeting of the Ticket ssociation yesterday, @ form was drawn up for a very sarcastic circulaf con- cerning Mr. Baker and bie bili, and it was de- cided to have it printed together with the proposed amendments offered by the representative from New York and to send out all over the country for signatures by the people to petitions to Con- Ese * cee against the passage of the III. he circular, which is headed ‘‘We Are Getting There,’’ among other things says that if Mr. Baker knows the extent and meaning of his proposed amendment he is doubtiess ready to admit that democracy is too weak a form of goyernment for the United States. The circular goes on further: One of Mr. Baker’s amendments makes it obligatory, practically, upon railway companies to give free transportation or reduced rates to the families oftheir employes; buf we have no objection to offer to that proposition if vor-- porations manufacturing or dealing in dry goods, groceries and other lines of goods and wares are included in the amendment. A railway company is as much a seller of trans- portation as the merchant is of merchandise. * © * If it isto be obliged to furnish its line of goods and wares to its employes free of charge, it would be rank discrimina- tion if sellers of other lines of goods and wares are not required to do as much for their employes. 2.8 One amendment which prohibits the owner of a railway passage ticket selling the whole or any unused portion of ft, except to the com- pany that lesued it, is a very long stride lu the direction of Government supervision of every- thing that enters into commercial operations and commodity interchange. It is certainly true that railway passage tickets are a com- modity on the market, and it is equally true that when aman buys one of these tickets it is as much his to do with as he may elect as if his purchase had been a bolt of calico instead of a railway ticket, and if Congress may deny the right to sell a passage ticket other than to he party originally ‘issuing ‘it there 16 no reason wh the same paternal government idea should not obtain in eommercial operations neraliy.

This latter promises to take the place of the ordinary shingle, or slate roofing. The enameled shingle, as itis called, is simply a thin iron dipped in a solution of granite mixture. The iron sheet is placed first ina pickle of acid for twelve hours. This eats away all unevenness due to rust or other causes, and leaves a perfectly smooth surface. The shiugie is then dipped into a solution of chemicais for eight or ten minutes and then baked. This has been subjected to enormous heat, but, it is said, resists the action of fire. It is of course waterproof, and therefore proof against the action of the atmosphere, as the metal is never exposed. Besides, the many Method of Laying Spanish Tiles. colors made possible in the process of enam- cling make it ornamental, and hence de- sirable in all buildings which pretend to an architectural character. In all probability the first roof that man had wasacave which he shared with his first cousins, the simians, or perhaps it was noth- ing more than the thick branches of a tree. Out of these natural roofs came the imitative forms, the artificial cave called the cromilect and the hut of brushwood. Thefirst attempts were merely erections ofa few spars united together with twigs. In a more advanced stage walls of dried turf were erected and those walls connected by means of timbers laid horizontally covered with weeds and boughs. Rain storms soon set the primitive man to thinking and the first fruits of this thought was the inclined roof covered with clay to carry off the rain. Vitruvius, who wrote in thetime of Julius Caesar, says that roofs were so constructed in his day by the uncivilized inhabitants of Gaul and Spain. The old Ayras are said to have used ciay dried and laid on the timbers in this way. The Chinese, especially favored by natare, used NOPHING ee . out of which alone they constructed thelr houses, except occasionally when they used stone for foundation. Great roofs were made of thick bamboos bent and covered with ingeniously disposed. This — Cheap Roman Pan Tile. made a very close roof and afforded a perfect shelter from the rain and heat. The As- syrians likewise having no forests resorted to canes. These were formed into arches, thé eurvature of which was fixed bya wicker frame work made of reeds placed vertically, horizontally and diagonally under the arch. smaller canes and then a layer of soft ciay was placed on the top of the Wall on which the arch When thie was dry another layer wat added and then gnotner, all following the curvature of the arch until the whole was covered. After this the canes were no longer of use and were usually removed. Although the supporting principle was the arch, the roof itself was flat. These struct- ures are of the grander sort. Other Assyrian roofs were of strong beams covered with tiles — Old Roman Clay Tiles With Joint. or fiat bricks, The Greeks covered their houses with marbie tiles, or terra-cotta ribs. Rome was originally roofed with shingles which constituted a standing invitation to the great conflagrations which so often swept over the city. About the time of the war with Pyrrhus tiles of burning 3 were intro- duced. These were flat and thin—thinnest at the lowerend. Thejoints wére covered with a semi-circular or angular joint tile, the whole having the appearance shown in the figure. The tiles were acourately fitted and securely fastened tothe rafters with bronze nails. here cheapness was required a shal- low pan tile was used with a semi-circular joint tile, as shown in the figure. . With the introduction of the Gothic style of architecture came necessary develop- ments of roofing. The Norman roofs were usually of steep pitch, showing the whole of the cross-framing of the timbers used in them and sometimes boarded on the underside so as to form a flat or slightly canted ceiling. Slates or tiles were used as the outer covering. The Chinese mod ern houses. It however, that the umbrells suggests many of these Chinese house forms.

Subjected to enormous pressure the layers were squeezed iven them an 5 74 Early English Ridge Tile. together in dense masses while by subsequent convulsions the particles were arrang in fresh planes perpendicular to the directions in which the pressure was first exerted. Along these the slate splits casily, and thus is furnished a natural roofing material which is very hara and which absorbs little or no water. A slate roof is one of the neatest pos- sible roofings, but though bard, is brittle and easily broken. Besides, though called an in- combustible it cracks and falls to pieces at no very high temperature. Besides they are not wind proof and frequently become loosed from their fastenings. 1 LEAD, ZINC AND VOPPER are used to some extent for roofing purposes, the countries in which ner are in vogue out- sidethe United States being Russia, Canada and many new settiements all over the world.

The old Spanish tile was very heavy, weighing some- times as much as ten or twelve pounds. It is made ot brick olay about three quarters of aninch thick, and isin the form of a semi cylindrical trough about eighteen inches long. The piteh of the roof on which these tiles were placed was slight, and indeed it conld not be otherwise considering the manner of layin the tiles. The roof timbers being ln the tiles were laid in parallel rows face upward, the run of the lines being from the eaves to the pole. Then on these were laid other tile with the curve up.

But being very heavy it required sturdy walls and stout timbers to support it. Sometimes the-tiles were laid in a bed of mortar, Put more often were placed directly on the wooden frawe- work. All the tiles used formerly in Mexico and other parts of Spanish-America came from Spain, but they are now made exten sively in Mexico and California. In localities which supplied laminated stone the Romans roofed their buildings with stone tiles fastened with fron, as slates are used to- day. On their temples and other magnificent buildings tiles of thickly gilded bronze were used, which produced a magnificent effect. Those of the Temple of Vesta are especially mentioned by Pliny as having been of Syra- cusan bronze, au alloy in great répute among the Romans. Bronze tiles for small buildings, such as this, were usually of a pointed o ‘/ form something like the feathers ofa bird. Pope Honorius I. in 688 robbed these lea ' temples of their bronze tiles to cover silica of St. Peter. From this they were stolen by the Saracens in 846, during their invasion. IN MEDIEVAL TIMES lead or copper in large sheets weré used for the chief churches and palaces in Europe, bat in more ordinary work clay tiles of a ¥ simple form were used. In this so- | pan tile each tile has a double curve, forming what ie known as a teguia and imbrex or gutter and ridge both in one. Stone tiles were also very common 8 the middie ages.

After being taken out of the pits the clay is kneaded and complete mixed by a revolving oast-lron spindle wh carries a series of flat steel arms, so ar- ranged as to form by rotation a worm-like motion upop the clay. In this way great co- " | hesive power is given it and theclay is then ready for the moids. Alter molding and pen ng they are put in ovens for thirty-eight ours. Ia this country the manufacture of roof tiles isa comparatively new industry, but it is growing rapidly. With us, however, the tiles are not of the pan or ridge shape, but are flat and of various patterns, the shield being the favorite. They are usually of three colors, red, buff and black, the buff being made of nearly pute fireclay and the red and black being colored res tively with oxide of iron and manganese. They vary in size from 1628 inches to 6x10 inches and are fastened by gal- vanized tron, or tin nails. It has been ob- jected to those tiles that they are heavy and made of coarse clay, and that therefore they will absorb moisture so that freezing and thawing would cause them to crumble. But these objections have been met by improye- ments in manufacture. One of the greatest advantages of the tile roof is that it is a non- conductor of heat, and therefore cooler in the summer and warmer in winter than any other. MAUNDERINGS. Maundering is like idling; it is no fun, unless you have something else todo. ‘‘The time when I like best tostand with my back to the fire, calculating how much I owe,’’ saysa charming English writer, ‘‘is when my table is filled highest with letters which must be answered by the next post. So by the law of contraries, now that I feel it to be emi- nently proper and legitimate that I should skim from one subject to another, I want to sit down and inveigh, for twenty-two columas, at least against Col. Robert Inger- soll, whose insufficient reasons why he is an agnostic, I have just been reading in the North American Ne- view. But don’t be alarmed, timid reader, I am not going ta. do it and ‘as Canon Farrar is to reply to the sceptical Colonel in the April number of the Review, my toy amunition may well give place to the booming of that great piece ofartillery. Any one may remark, however, incidentally, that if Colonel Ingersoll ex- pects to bring over the mass of Christains to his way of thinking, he really must, this. spring, get himself some new arguments. He must indeed. The old ones are very shabby and very threadbare, from haying seen so much service. We have heard for years that Colonel Ingersoll does not believe in miractes, and that as the Christian religion is founded on miracies, consequently he can not believe in it. That he does not believe that the bible was inspired because nobody, whose word had any weight in the matter, ever told him so, and that he does not particularly admire the style of the Scriptures anyway. One would have supposed that the marvelous beauty of the Psalms would appeal to any man of taste in literature, sceptic or no sceptic. In fact many unbelievers. do admire those exquisite writings exceedingly for their own sake. But our Agnostic contents himself with crashing his enemies by this sort of thing: The Iliad seems to me a greater work than the Book of Esther, and I prefer it the writings of Haggai and Hosea. superior to Jeremiah, sacred books of the world.“ No doubt Col.

Written for the SUNDAY PosT-DISPATOR. ] (Copyrighted. )} CORRES- PONDENT residing at Scuffle- town, Ky., writes to know if New York State ever had a tem- perance Governor, avd if so, who he was. There was «a temperance Gover- nor whose name was Ciark. He was inelined to be of a simple nature and was elected during an unguarded moment, I believe. At least it bas never occurred since. He lived, I think, at Oanandaigua,; and still does so for that matter. He was not quite sure of his election at first, but after a while be became convinced that de had been chosen by the sut- trages of the people and so he started tor Albany by diligence, with a speckled cow attached to the rear of the conveyance. When he got near to Albany he was told that a mis- ake had been made in the returns, by which the other man’s election was only too clear. He probed the matter and found that the in- formation came from an authentic source; so, after baiting his team, he gave his trusty cow adose of Moxie and startea out for home again, sad, yet bowing to the win of the people. For some days he journeyed on over rough roads and through desolate stretches of country, sometimes finding such rough going that his frail drosky seemed ready to overturn and plunge down a bottomless chasm. At last the domes and minarets of Canan- daigua loomed up in the distance, and after his long journey the Governor drove into his own door yard and put the team out. Polish- ing his red but virtuous beak on the back of hie duékskin mittens he slowly took up the thread of private life again by knocking the choicest brains out of a stray cat. Anon one of the neighbors came in and asked the Governor what wasup. He allowed that he wasn't so much elected as he had wotted. ‘‘Why, yes you de, said the man. The Governor pricked up his RY, “a =$6= The Governor. ears and began to look for the papers. He now discovered that sure enough he was elected after all; so, eating a cold doughnut and drinking some non-elastic cider, he re- turned to the barn. Adminstering a Dover's powder and little bismuth to the cow he once more hitched up his drosky, whiist the cow looked up into bis eyes with an air of inquiry and reproach,as who should say, ‘‘Governor, how wuch of this junketing business have you got on hand?’’ Hesmote her across the nose pettishly and said, There, torment, ye can’t ye never so?“ He became Governor, but in a —— way, wing tO the State a cornstarch administra- jon unmarked by recklessness or intestine strife. He was the only temperance Gover- nor, I think, that New York ever had, and that was the only way he has been the author of a foot-print on the sands of time. The cow who assisted him during bis calm reign of oatmeal and chastened monotony has jong since passed to her reward. 6 still recalls with warked pride his career as Governor, and speaks of the time when he made the trip by diligence to Albany and back with a pair of spliat bottomed chairs lashed to the back of the load, a cow attached to the rear also and an Oleander from Olean, who went along as an amanuensis. Weshould learn from the career of Gov. Ciark to esteem, ever through life and even beyond the confines of time, where sorrow and dietress and habits of industry can never enter, those qualities of mind and heart which, wherever found and whenever came acrost, should, by one and all, be most nigeiy thought of. tella B., Long Branch, N.

Well, this Mr. Whiskers said that the only — 45 he wanted a lower berth for bie wie was that she was almost always seasick while traveling on the cars, and especially when in an upper berth. He also added that her berth was over mine. Recalling the general gloom and other things that a seasick person can Cast over a community at times, I decided to vield my berth. Next morning I told the conductor about it as I put a large plaster on my ost. He said yes, that was getting to be quite a opular way of scaring a man out of a lower berth now. He hardly made a trip, he said, that some man was not rified of his berth right in that manuer. Keep the mouth closed while sleeping on the cars, Your mouth will thus taste sweeter even to yourself in the morning than it would otherwise, and beside you are less apt to snore.

The frst line of hills arose before our vision, and behind them expanded im- mense dark green forests. We were in the Rio Para Tocantine. From time to time dense balls of clouds gathered in the sky, pouring Gown heavy showers, and just as suddenly the sun would send its scorching rays down upon the deck, antil new masses of clouds formed, repeating the phenomenon of an hour ago-—genuine tropical rainy weather. Our steamer saluted while passing under the shadows of Fortaleza, a small, fortified island. For the space of two hours we steamed up the river and then landed at Para. Before us the view opened upon the whole enchanting magic of a tropical city. It was a feast for the eye to linger upon, the singular architecture, the convents and churches in the fantastic style of the Jesuits, and the gardens with their slender royal palms and dark foliage of trees in their perennial green. The river teemed with a peculiar, busy life and a mongrel of the various types one mects here. Thecity itseif is neither worse nor better than any other tropical town. A few public buildings are remarkable for theif style of architecture. NX W Une Para is the commercial center of the rich, fer- bamboo rod.

Rio de Janeiro is in many respects the sum total, so to speak, of landscape beauty—land, water, mountains, rocks, forests, rairies and a luxurious tropical vegetation all com- bine to make the gorgeous picture, It seems as if nature had put her best works on exhi- bition in this lovely spot. One never grows tired of the magnificent panoram Standing on one of the hills a lovely sight holds the eye spellbound. On the waters of the broad bay millione of sun rays are reflected. The delicate contours of the distant moun- tains stand out clearly against the glim- mering atmosphere. The flewer- arowned tops of the large forest trees rock softly to and fro; the fine, slender fibres of the graceful palm trees tremble in the breeze. Below us expands the city, serenely, grandly, in holi- day attire, as peacefully as if hatred and enmity never swayed the hearts ofthe human beings, who move along its shining streets. As a ty Rio de Janeiro offers many attrac- tions, especially to a painters’ eye. It would lead too far to mention all its public buildings and places. The Largo San Francisco is a magnificent structure. THE CULTURED BRAZILIAN IS, of course, deeply attached to France and fair Paris. Stores and business houses are modeled after certain French patterns. The lower stratum of the Portuguese population are very industrious; a quality, which is not possessed by the colored inhab- itonts. The dark-skinned lazzaron! abounds in the streets of Riv de Janeiro, and one does well to give that individual a wide berth. The police department of that city is very wellorganized. The female flora thrives and expands in all possible colors. Among the negro women there are types of almost classi- cal purity. The half milk, halt coffee-colored Individuals are often paragons of exotic beauty. . . The Brazilian ‘*Soldateska’’ affords avery ludicrous sight. There isa law that every man must serve in the armyfor a certain specified time, but that law exists in the letter and ran- soming substituting is generally ermitted.

Under the sheltering roof of the giant trees a realm is found of wondrous bloom and assidious, prosperous growth. Magnificent flowers unfold their fragrant chalices; deli- cious FRUITS OF EXOTIC FLAVOR RIPEN in the half-light which prevails. Around the foot of the trees a littie delicate plant spins its light-green threads from root to root, from trunk to trunk, and from branch to branch, until it reaches the top of the powerful giants, twining from one to the other, a continuous latticed roof of soft, luxurious tendrils. Large tracts of these forest deserts have never been explored; cances pass up and down the river, sustaining the commercial relations be- tween the sparse native settiements, and even a steamer ploughs the Amazon; but that does not disturb the holy quiet and seclusion of these mighty forests.

Father Gallaudet’s Sen Tells How Deaf Mutes Talk and of the Wonderfal In- vention That Abbe de L’Epee Made— The Language Interestingly Described. [Written for the SunDAY Post-DISPATCH. | Copyright. ] OT many know that the founding of the first school for deaf mutes in France, and one of the first in the world, was the result of an accident. The story is as follows: The good Abbe de L’Epee, who lived in Paris in the eighteen th centary, called one day upon one of his parishioners. The lady kept him wait- ing fora few minutes in her drawing-room. Atthe further end of the apartment the Abbe noticed two young ladies who were apparently greatly engrossed in some fancy work. He spoke to them, and to his surprise re- ecived no reply. When his parishioner ap- peared he asked who the young ladies were. She said that they were her daughters. There- upon he mildly reproached her for their rude- ness in not answering bis greeting. Then the mother, with tears in her eyes. told him that they were deaf and dumb, and beyond such few accomplishments as they had scquired were totally ignorant of everything regarding the world. They could neither read nor write, I. Day. 2. Hour. 8. Year. 4. Month. This simple incident changed the whole life ofthe good Abbe. It did more. It gave to the world the sign language by which the deaf mutes of one nationality may express their thought to their afflicted brethren of another race. Thisisthe way the Abbe began his work. He gathered about him such deaf mute chil- dren as he could find, and studied their ac- tions. He found that they could make them- selves understood in a certain uncouth way, by signs. They had certain signs for horses, cows, men, women, children, houses, streets and parks. They could ex- ress hunger, thirst, weariness, cold and heat n their own way. The Abbe noticed a cer- tain similarity in all these signs, and with these as a foundation he built up step by step the great sign language—a language as differ- ent from French as it is from English; a language of thought, not of words. AN ACCIDENT not altogetber unlike this led to the founding of the first deaf mutes’ schoolin America and the transplanting of this sign language in our own soil. In 16185 my father, the Rev. Thomas H. Gallaudet, who was a oun Congregational clergyman in Hart ord, Conn., became interested in the sad case of Alice Cogswell, the infant daugh- ter of a wealthy physician. She was 2 years old atthattime and could neither hear nor speak. Several wealthy gentiemen agreed to pay my father’s exvenses if he would go abroad and learn the different methods of educating deaf mutes witha view of found- ing a schol for these unfortunates in Hartford. One year later my father wasin France. He had already spent some time in Great tain examining the systems in vogue ere. When he saw the beauty of the | I. Wife. 2. Bethrothed. ' French si language, he decided to adopt that plan in his work. He devoted six months to hard study in the school founded by Abbe de L’E and then conducted by his succes- sor, Abbe Sicard, and wher he 6s fo America, he brought back with him M. Law- rent Clerc, a deaf mute, who had wonderful skill. in the sign language. He was my father’s first assistant in the school which he founded in — oe om pest.

IV.~SLEBVES AND COLLARS “(Written for the SUNDAY Post-Disraton.) ANY dresses are N made, but few are made successfully. It doesn’t pay to make a dress | unless it is a success. The apologies in plaids, waol- lens, stuffs, silks and mus- lins are pathetic consider- ating the facilities there are for the study of dress. The old seamstress is in the majority of cases too inflexible to be taught new methods. Instead of putting an ambitious daughter to work experimenting on rage ve her a dress pattern of some daintily flowered merino, chally or silk, which can be bought at from 17 cents to 75 cents a yard, and it willbe more of an incentive to her than a mile of printed calico. Geta few extra yards of material, and when the waist is tried on and found to be a botoh give it up, lay it aside, got fresh lining and try again. Keep on try- ing; keep cool, and either succeed or give up woering dresses. Whatever you do don’t wear a dress that wrinkles.

You may drape the skirt and braid the bodice, put cuffs on the sleeves, epaulets on the shoulders, embroidery on the collar and fringe on the edge or the basque, but a wrinkle at the arm-hole or across the waist line ls a crack in the tea-cup, a flaw in the marble, a birth-mark on the cheek of beauty. In the work of a professional it is a disgrace; hence unpardonable and should be the price of patronage. To the novice it isg@ishearten- ing, out not insurmountable. The cure is practice coupled with patience and intelli- gence. It is easier to prevent a wrinkle than it is to eradicate one. LEG O'“ MUTTOX SLEEVE. But to get at the rootofthe wrinkle attack the interior. Begin atthe vitals—the inner- most membrane, the ribs. In other words rip out the lining, pull up the whalebone, siash the seams apart and commence again. It there is a wrinkle about the shoulders or neck the collar is at fault. You eut it too short in the start and had to stretch it, whereas you should have had it ample in length and stretched the neck of the dress, in which case the material would draw smoothly over and hide the hol lows and cavities about your chest. The wrinkle across the back is the result of one of three errors. Either the side body is too wide or too high, or the back gore is too long.

Ifthe novice is bent on having a collar ofthis sort, it will be economical to have the assistance of a tailor, on the principle that what is worth doing is worth doing well. For a double-breasted front the revere, as illustrated, will serve asa guide. It is joined to the top or bottom side of the front and may be scalloped onthe edge or finished straight, slanted or narrowed towards the bottom of the basque. Reveres of this sort are always buttoned, asthe hooks and eyes do not se- curely close a bias piece. Standing Collar. The facing round the button varies in depth with the length of the skirt. In a round, deep basque cut the facing wide enough to reach the belt—that is, five inches. The habit basque, which is short on the hips, pointed in front and finished with tails, calls for a special facing, narrow all round, with the talls faced to the waist. Cut the lining on the bias and don’t pleat it in any place. If you hold it roperly it will adjust jteclf to the edge of the asque. Silk, while not as durable as farmer satin, is more preferable on account of its soitness. Cloth is too wey A ever to be used. The same is true in finishing the cuff, If there are no cuffs have the facing three or four inches deep. Keep an iron on the fire and press every seam as soon as it is closed. When completed press the entire garment, remember al- ways to have a cloth under the lron. Pressing is to a dress what polish is to a shoe, and there is nothing that adds so much to the beauty of the costume. Unfortunately women dressmakers do not attach proper import ance to this feature of the work. A tallor on the con- trary almost makes a waist with an iron and lasting cotton, the cotton as a security against a slip or a misfit and the iron or ‘goose’ to give the work shape, style, finish and beauty. In the main this constitutes the charm of a tallor- made costume. Little need be said, onthe Znglish Basque. subject of trimming a bodice, owing to the fluctuations in fashton. The military is perhaps as stable as any other style, and certainly very simple. By means of braid a vest may be simulated, some artistic de- sign stamped on the fronts and brought out by band, or a girdie or zouave jacket sug- gested in the graceful turning of the braid. Draped fronts are always pretty, but skill fs required to handle the folded piece and lay it in artistic pleats. Theaspirant is cautioned against attempting too much. The apprea- tice must serve longand faithfully before es- saying tocopya Worth. Dress goods were never as cheap or as pretty as at present. Ex collent material may be had for a few dollars and the cutting, fitting and wmaking of three or four succes- @ tollets will enable the home artist tosee and correct errors that escape the memory that tides an annual or two. Instead of making a Mother Hub- bard or a plaited wrapper to wear round the house, buy bed-ticking, linsy- woolsey, home-spun, seersucker or some 18- cent delaine and make a Dutch dress, a Josephine or a Gretchen—if not for tidiness and beauty then for use,make asuccess ofa round waist before touch- ing a basque.

Ever since the war, the condition of the Lower Missiesippi Valley has been a subject of serious concern. In ante-bellum days, slave change of bed is pot confined to the delta how- ever; it is noticeable along the entire course of the Mississippi. The surveys made by the Government in recent years show that changes have been uninterrupted during the last cen- tury and that THE LEVER SYSTEM, while it may modify, cannot prev nt them. At Memphis, observations taken s\.ow a very remarkable series of changes in the shore line may not prove an excep- tion to the rule, and the writer, seeing the is- sues involved in the present instance, steels his heart to describe an event that he would avert, but yields to imperative duty, under constraint, and, with tearfal eyes, pitches in blindly. . „Any message for me?’ , is, 01 4 dan t think of “em.

New Orleans has been a grievous sufferer from the annually recurring inundations. At that city, the Mississippi is from 1,500to 1,800 feet wide, but much narrowerthan at many other places above. The velooity of the cur- rent at high water is five miles an hour. When New Orleans was founded—some 150 years ago —the Custom House stood on the river bank.

Take a chair, dear, and sit down on the bed. Thus the days were whiled along, but Mrs. Partington grew no stronger very fast, and friends argued the worst, as friends most gen- erally do, and well they might In this instance. The Bun Bugle, newspaper, got hold of it and published it to the werld—as newspapers do everything, from the laying of an egg to the founding of an empire—and soon the fact was conveyed to ail parte of the land. Consequent upoh this came letters from everywhere, naming remedies for all sorts of diseases, some even sending bottles and bun- dies of specifics from afar for which she had to pay freight. Such people mean well but don’t know. The moral status was also considered and pampbiets, tracts and leaflets of a fervid character poured in upon her, which she couldn’t read and so was spared the beneficial effect. One day a new visitor was announced —by a name she had never heard—anid she was prepared to receive her—Mrs. Hardrow. She immediately entered with "Manda.

For the time being they seemed to have lost every dis- tinct trace of race or p Zclime. They were no longer Americans, Irishmen or Germans. They were boomers.

The mass of them, however. are no more permanently estab- lished there than the gold miner of Washoe was a permanent resident when the White Pine excitement broke out. An element in human nature impels men to seek for precious things far beyond immediate environs. All that is most valuable may surround them, in a dormant state, but its merits are despised for the allurements of some remote El Dora- do. Itis this restiess and adventurous spirit which has peopled the entire West and spread wide the boundaries of American civill- zation.

On Monday the attention of the promenaders on Broudway will be arrested by the unique and beautiful Easter window’’ which A. H. Fuchs has prepared for his opening of milli- nery goods on Tuesday and Wednesday at his new establishment on the northeast corner of Broadway and Lueas avenue. The whole window is arched with wreaths of flowers above and carpeted with soft green moss, studded with beds of flowers. A walk bor- dered with pure white blossoms leads to a pretty Gothic church with tall, taper- ing spire, all formed of pure white flowers. Within will gieam the altar lights, and upon the broad steps leading upto the church will pose a minia- ture gentieman and lady, with their braver books ia hand, the lady exquisitely dressed in pure white satin brocade, and wearing a lovely bat. This beautiful window is but a hint of the taste with which their salesroom will be decorated on the inside. The ceiling will be canopied with ribbons of every hue, and plants and flowers will be grouped with artistic effect at every availabie point, form- ing a pretty setting for the tasteful millin- ery which will deligbt the feminine heart. Among the lovely confections which will be found there are flower toques of every con- esivabie style, and hats, large and small, in many different shapes, trimmed and un- trimmed. — 7 the pattern hats displayed is a little French toque of pale blue, with edge of pink and tinsel open work, garianded with pink roses; narrow ties of pink ribbon, An- other smal) hat tis of moss green velvet, laid in bands about the brim, with a crown of blue embroidered lace,and wreathed with blue forget-me-nots and fern leaves. Still another is a little toque garlanded with heliotropes of the darkest shade, with a pretty contrasting tone of brown velvet forming a lattice work crown. A very stylish little affair is of cream and gold open-work braid, with crown formed of fluffy bows of fringed satin ribbon, in the different shades of spring en, and wreathed with the **Pussy Willow,’’ which Mrs. Cleveland brought Into popular favor. A very stylish large hat is of biack lace, with open work border and crown of silver tinsel, with pom- on bows of white brocaded ribbon and lack velvet and about the crown clustered a number of fine white ostrich tips;the broad brim faced with sliver passamenterie. Anotber very large hat is made entirely of the gold open-work braid, the crown formed of soft folds of cream silk, which are tied ina bow with ends of the slik, frayed and knotted in a deep fringe. Tbe hats for children are also very large and stylish; one of them is of lezhorn, with open border, and trimmed with loops of white ribbon and ostrich tips. Another is of black lace, with broad fluted brim, each fold of the lace separated by numerous little loops of very narrow biack ribbon, extending from the edge to thecrown. Pompons of the narrow ribbon encircie the crown and form a bandeau beneath to rest upon the little golden locks. Another large biack hat is also of lace, the the broad brim formed of a wreatn of fern leaves, which show also from the under side.

There was much suffering on account of the priva- tions to which many families were subjected at that time. Ayain in 1831, 1887, 1844 and 1746, vast volumes of water swept into the streets. On the 80th of May, 1849. 220 SQUARES WERE FLOODED. and a population of 12,000 were driven from their homes. In 1874, 1883 and 1884 floods oc- curred, causing great loss to the city’s com- merce and sickness among the people. These latter, however, were not so disastrous as the earlier foods, asthe levee system had been greatiy improved. From 1850 to 1858 the levees were in their most perfect condition and in- undations were of rare occurrence. The pres- ent visitation threatens to be more appalling In Ite consequences than any that bas taken place with twenty years. ‘*I have been a close and interested observer ofalithathas been done in connection with the Mississippi levee system since Capt. Eads first broached his jetty scheme, said Alfred E. Beach, an experienced civil engineer and editor of the Scientific American. These floods are a good deal iike earthquake physical calamities over which, even with all the scienoe he possesses, man can have little influence, you cannot forsee them and it seems impossible to provide wholly against them. ° „As far as the Eads system and the work of the Government engineers are concerned, the levees and jetties furnish the best means of mitigating the floods that have yet Deen de- vised. The mattress-levees or revetments are superior to any of the older sort. I think they were first used in the Eads jetties, and they are very generally used now in the Gov- ernment works. The effect of the levee sys- tem is to deepen the channel, and it as Eads’ plan contemplated, the cuts were made deep enough and the levees were buttressed, the ob- jection that the levees raised the surface of the river tothe danger point would not de a sound one. As far as my observation goes, the deepening of the channel and strengthen- ing of the banks is the only method that can be depended upon for results. What about the proposition to cut the levees along the river above New Orieans?’’ **The result would be of course — and suffering. and leave at the opportunity. opinion Oklahoma has been much overra rab 3 — good a country as Southern Kan A BEAUTIFUL CLIMATE, but I am afraid that dronth will be a perma- nent feature here.

It is Govern ent inundation has not greatly affected such parte ofthe river as are so defended in this way. Stones are also used in addition to THE MATTED WORK and thus the whole bank becomes literally riveted and almost impregnable against the force of an ordinary flood. The effect of revetments and leveesis to Geepen the river channel, increase the velocity of the current and steepen the slope. A narrower channel with an undiminished volume necessarily raises the surface, and this, with the increased velocity, con- stitutes a new danger. To meet it, additions have been made year after year to the height and soldier of the levees. Many projects have been sug- — at different times fer relieving the oods by creating new outlets for the issis- sipp!, Dut until the present time the revetted banks and levees as described are the most practical that have been discovered. The leveo-system that borders the American Nile. from its junction with the Missouri to its delta ju the Mexican Gulf, a distance of over 1,600 miles, is the greatest of its kind in the world. Ithas cost many millions of dollars for maintenance during the past twenty ‘years. At almost every important point the banks have been revetted with mattress work, and at many places huge pile dikes Dave been erected in addition. At Carroliton Bend, in New Orleans Harbor, eight years ago, 10,000 fect of mattress work, 400 yards wide, were laid, and 40,000 feet of bank were built at Algiers on the west bank, opposite the \ city, to fortify parts that had caved in. Since then this has been added to in different sea- sons. Every year the great levees there have been overtauied and strengthened. The same kind of work has been done an nually at the mouths of the Atcha- falaya, the Yazoo, the Red River and the Arkansas River, where they join the Mississippi. At Memphis, Vicksburg, Cairo, Arkansas City, Natchez, Greenville, New Providence and every important commercial! point, the War Department, which has the work in charge, has devoted its attention to strengthening ite defenses by the addition of revetments or pile dike#, or by adding to the height and thickness ot the existing levees.

[Written for the Sux pay Post-DIspaTcn. | Nthese daysof ag- 1 gressive sanitation tobacco, like nearly every other gift of God to man, has been denounced by well-meaning fanat- jos as the cause of numberiess ills both to soul and body. I am inclined to think that to this indis- ctiminating anathoe- ma the practice of smoking owes, at Jeast in some measure, its present all but universal diffusion. A French Gevote is re- ported to have said of some innocent pleasure that it would be perfect if it were sinful. In the same spirit, no doubt, the average sensual man’’ feels that indulgences in themselves Imost indifferent gain additional relish ‘from the fact that they are regarded as wroag the uno guild’’ or by truculent sanita- ns as hurtful. The gospel of health is an excelient thing, but like the world it is per- baps atrifie too much with us and the relent- less zeal of ite preachers wearies men of ordinary mould as the just Aristides bored the thenians. Isay this out of no irreverence o Sir Edwin Chadwick, Dr. B. W ichardson and the other aposties of "ygiene whom I honor on this side of Aolatry as much as any, but because it sems to me that they are apt to forget that _ hysical well-being is not the sole end of ex- ,tence. 1 wish it to be understood that, sbugh a doctor, I do not consider it to be my snpction’ to stand at the feast of life and, like oor Sancho’s physician, condemn every- hing on the table. Lam not a member ot the snti-Tobacco League, nor do I believe that li those who seek solace from the herb lootian’’ Go mad and beat their wives, Piunge, after shocking lives, Razors and carving knives Into their gizzards. On the contrary, Iam teleologist enough to hink that as tobacco is supplied to us natu- ally from the bounteous bosom of mother arth, itis meant to be used, and if used in ae right way it is often helpful rather than ijurious. I have no sympathy with the snatics, from the royal author of the famous *‘Oounterbiast’’ downward, who would de- ‘ive poor humanity one of the few pleas- res which tend to make our way of life, in owever small a d , less desolate. Having how, as hope, gained the confi- lence of devotees of the weed“ by this pro- ession of faith, [can speak of the effects of moking on the vocal organs without being uspected of prejudice. In dealing with the voice we may concen- rate our attention on the singing voice and he marvelous organ which produces it, with ts delicate tissues, its highly complex nerv- us apparatus and its accurate muscular ad- astments or we may speak of THE VOICE g used in ordinary speech, in which, though here is less question of artistic effect, the nechanism is still extraordinarily oomplicat - d, and not only the isrynxand throat are wed, but the tongue, cheeks and lips are >rought into more active play than they are, n singing. Speaking concerns the whole suman family, while singing be- ongs to * comparatively small ‘bough highly privileged fraction thereof. To- yaceo affects both the speaking and the * ng voice, though of course ite influence is nu more noticeable in song, where the oh 1 processes are more elaborate and where anythin that interferes with the moothness and sweetness of tone is as con- pleuous as spots on the sun. The singing olee, therefore, affords the most deljcate whereby the effect of external agencies so slight that in speech their influence would be annoticed can be acouratelr gauged. Ishall, therefore, first consider the effect of tobacco smoke on the singing voice,and it may be well o ask in the outset: Has it any effect at all? Does the utterance of the smoker betray him, s the husky tones of those who love to look on the wine when it is red often prociaim thelr infirmity That the voice is affected by tobacco is * by the testimony of el re on the one and and by the noe of physicians on the other. A very large uaintance with vocalists of all grades, extending now over a onger period of years than 1 care to think of, nables me to say that while a few consider ꝗ0elr voloe improved, the vast majority think is more or less injured smoking. I ttach far more importance tothe testimony the latter than to that of the former, as 9 re have uently the most eccentric motions of what is god for the voice.’’ As stout, mas and melted tallow candies have each been vaunted by die- fehed artistes as vocal elixirs of sov- efficacy, it is not surprising that to- should also have its adherents. 0 ple of Mario, who smoked incessantly, cited as aproof of the utility, or at any rate the barmlesenese, ot the practice.

The general effect does not concern us here except in so far asthe larynx may be affected thereby. It usually finds expression in what le vaguely called ‘‘neryvousness;’’ the pulse becomes flurried, and the muscles more or less relaxed and unsteady. This is why smoking isso strictly forbidden to men training for athletic feats. 80 marked isthe effect of tobacco in relaxing the whole muscular system that be- fore the days of chloroform it was employed in ae ty operations in which it was neces- sary that the muscles should be perfectly limp. It will be readily understood that un- er THE INFLUENCE OF A DRUG possessing these properties the exquisitely delicate adjustments of the various parts of the complicated vocal machinery are to some extent disordered, and the voice, if not quite Ike sweet bells jangied out of tune and harsh, loses something of its richness and brilliancy. Something analegous to what takes place inthe eyes as the result of the abuse of tobacco occurs in the larynx, or rather in the part of the brain which governs the movements of that organ. Oculists are familiar with ‘‘tobacco amblyopia,’’ that is, Aimness of sight, due to what may be called, figuratively, biurring of the retina by tobacco sinoke. ‘‘Tobacco amblyphonia’’ would be an equally appropriate name for the corre- sponding dullness of voice caused by excessive 12 It must be understood that I speak bere solely of singers; the effects which have been mentioned would be scarcely, if at all, noticeable in the speaking Voice. When the nicotine does not injare the nerv- ous system the smoke may still irritate the lining membrane of the throat and windpipe. Any one who bas been in a Highland cottage must be painfully familiar with the effect of the ‘‘peat reek’’ on the eyes. As the mucous membrane lining the larynx is even more sensitive than that covering the organ of vision, the effect of blasts of hot smoke pass- ing over it may be es. Unfortunately, it is possible to harden the delicate membrane to these rough experiences, but in being its sensitiveness it aiso loses a good deal of its emoothness and elasticity. The evil effects wrought by tobacco on the larynx consist gen- erally in patches of congestion affecting the upper partof the organ and occasionally the vocal cords themselves. In addition to this in severe cases the cords show a certain sluggish- ness of movement, which of course makes the tone dull, harsh, and uncertain. 4 marked feature in these cases is dryness of the mucous membrane, a physica! condition which deprives the voice of all brilliancy. In a givon case it would be impossible by mere ocular inspection to feel certain that these signs of disease arose from smoking, but in the case of young men not thoroughly habn - uated, I have repeatedly seen conditions brought on by a few Cays’ smoking, which have disappeared altogether when the patient has abstained. In the upper portion of the throat the parts most exposed tothe action of hot smoke are the uvula and the soft paiate or little curtain which screens off the mouth from the back of the throat, and it is there accordingly that the effects are most marked. Patches of red- ness, enlargement of the tiny blood vessels, swelling of the uvula, crops of LITTLE BLISTERS which break and give rise to small but pain- ful ulcers, end finally a rough, gritty, almost warty and discolored condition of what was onee a beautiful, smooth, ping surface—these are the chief features of the picture too often resented by the smoker’s palate. Dryness ia ere also a very characteristic feature of chronic nicotism. Everywhere inthe throat the natural secretion which should lubrieate the parts is dried up or thickened to a giuti- nous material which clogs instead of oiling the wheels of the vocal machine. The tongue often suffers severely from the effects of tobacco. Small excoriations, blisters, chronic superficial inflammation and white patches, sometimes of almost horny consis- tence, are formed on the surface of the organ, and a permanently unhealthiy condition is in- duced, which in those predisposed tocancer is apt, under the influence of advancing age or as the result of the prolonged local irritation, to lead to the development of that disease. The same observation applies to the super- fictal ulceration which affects the sides ot the root of the tongue. In this situation there are a number of delicate projections or so-called papilia@, the exquisitely fine points of which readily become inflamed when exposed to ir- ritation. It is in this situation tuat cancer of the tongue is exceedingly apt to commence, but whether this terrible disease actually originates from merely Irritation or whetber it must first be in the system and is only brought to a focus, so to speak, by local irri- tation, has not yet been determined. Even if the latter hypothesis be correct, the disease must often be brought on by smoxing years before it would otherwise develop and it oc- curs in a situation where its symptoms are pecullarly distressing. More rarely smoking causes chronic inflam- mation of the lips, which sometimes gives rise to cracks which are always very trouble- some and not infrequently end in deadly dis- ease. In several of the morbid conditions which I bave described it is obvious that the changes Of structure are more important than the loss of vocal function, and indeed in many cases serious disease may be present, while the voice is but little affected. It need hardly be said that the conditions of the throat and other parts of the vocal in- strument which Ihave here sketched are not the work ofa few months or of moderate smoking; they are the result of years of ex- cessive indulgence. There is, of course, every shade of degree in the susceptibility of differ- ent individuals, and much also depends on the kind of tobacco used and on the MANNER OF SMOKING. Persons whose skin are mucous membranes are naturully irritable are more easily affected than others, and those of strongly marked rheumatic or gouty tendencies are aspecially likely to suffer. The speaking voice does not generally be- come seriously affected as the result of smok- ing, exceptin the case of those who have to make professional use of their voice. I have noticed such effects oocasionally in the case of military men and more rarely among the clergy, who have generally the good sense to ive up the habit of smoking when they find It njurious. They are certainly, however, most common amongst actors. In members of the dramatic profession there is often a great strain on both the throat and the nervous system, especially in learning and rehearsing now parts, and itis at auch times that actor often exceed the bounds of moderation in smoking, to which récourse is had asa seda- tive to their overtaxed cerebral and nervous energies. It is easy to drift into excess under such circumstances, all the more that the throat is then in what may be called a condi- tion of the least resistance.’’ The result is that most of the leading sctors in London suffer from a relaxed condition ofthe upper part of the throat, broughton entirely, believe, by smoking. Asa high standard of excellence can Only be maintained in the dramatic pro- fession under a spering use of alcohol, tobacco must be looked upon as the sole cause of the evil. I may add, moreover, that while actors suffer very much from congestion and re- laxation of the pharynx, actresses are very rarely afflicted inghat way. But if the present craze of women for aping men even in tbeir weaknesses continues, it cannot be expected that they willescape the consequences. The fair creatures Whom! have seen smoke, how- ever, did not seem likely to do themselves much harm, for they elther toyed with the clgarette lu a Platonic sort of way or smoked with their itp **puffing out innocuous blasts of dry smoke,’’ to use the words of Charies Lamb, but taking care that very littie p inward beyond the ‘‘barrier of the teeth. cannot imagine, however, that any lady cares about her voice would expose it even to that slight risk. Ihave entered somewhat minutely into the various forms of harm which a smoker may inflict upon himselt, but unfortun it is not necessary to smoke in order to be a Victim oftobacco. Even seasoned vessels otten find their neighbors’ pipes or very trying, and for a person with a delicate throat, X- posure to an atmosphere laden with the fumes of tobacco is even worse than smoking.

The effects of oversmoking on the throat, when the habit has not deen too long indulged in, can, as a rule, be easily cured by the sim- ple remedy of discontinuing the ractice which engenders them. In considering the evils produced by smoking it should be borne in mind that there are two bad qualities con- tained in the fumes of tobacco. The one is the poisonous nicotine and the other is the high —1 2 — of the burning tobacco. The Oriental bookah,in which the smoke is cooled by being passed through water before reach ing the mouth, is probably the least harmful form of indulgence in tobacco, and the cigar- ette which isso much in vogue nowadays is most certainly the worst. It owes this ‘*bad eminence’’ to the very mildness of its action, people being thereby tempted to smoke all day long and easily accustoming themselves toinhale the fumes in their lungs, and thus saturating their blood with the poison. To aum up, I believe that most people can smoke in moderation without injury and that to many tobacco acts as a useful nerve sed- ative. On, the other band, it indulged in to excess the habit is always In jur lous and lam sure that a great many persons either cannot see or willfully shut their eyes to the ‘‘scien- tific frontier’’ which separates moderation from abuse. It must also be borne in mind that the condition of the throat as well as thet of the general health varies greatly at differ- ent times and that an amountof smoking which atone time would be attended with no BAD EFFECT might at another produce serious harm. Every stroker knows that when the stomach is out ot order the pipe or cigar loses its charm; but it Is not so generally known that at such times the tongue (which to the experienced eye is a mirror of the in- visible stomach) and the throat are more yulnerable than usual to tobacco. If nature’s warnings on these points are disre- garded, as they generally are, the smoker will bring on himself much unnecessary dis- comfort and even suffering. In connection withthe variation in susceptibility just re- ferred to, it may be mentioned that persons leading an out-door lite can, as * rule, smoke with much greater Impunity than those who spend most of their time indoors. itis further worthy of remark that the inhabitants of warm climates suffer less than the dweilers in what is, prob- ably onthe a non lucendo principle, called the temperate climate of England. This is doubtless due to the greater resisting power of throats less harassed by fogs and cast winds, and partly, perhaps, to the use of milder tobacco. To conciude with a little @ractical advice, I would say toany one who finds total absti- nence too heroic a stretch of virtue, let him emoke only after a substantial meal, and if he be a singer or speaker, let bim do so after, and never before, using the voice. Let him smoke a mild Havana or a long-stemmed pipe cherged with cool smoking tobacco. If the charms of the cigarette are irresistibie. let it be smoked through a mouthpiece which is kept clean with ultra- Mohammedan strictness. Let bim re- frain from smoking pipe, cigar or cigarette to the bitter, and, it may be added, rank and olly end. Your Turk, who is very choice in h‘s smoking. and thoroughly understands the art, always throws away the near halt of his cigarette. Letthe singer who wishes to keep in the ‘*‘perfect way,’’ refrain from inhaling the smoke, and let bim take it as an axlom thatthe manin whom tobacco increases the flow of saliva to any marked degree, is not in- tended by nature to smoke. Let him be strictly moderate in induligence—the precise limits each man must settle for himself—and he will get all the good effect of the soothing plant without the bane which lurks in it when used in excess.

He was the guardian of the restaurant and no other animal was per- mitted to enter it while he was around. When Charles Delmonico, who wes very fond of the old dog, perished among the Orange moun- tains several years ago, Tiger was inconsol- able. He went moping about, and his famous appetite and his spirit were broken together. A furtive bite was all he cared for after that sad event, and he tarned up hie knowing nose in melancholy fashion at the dainties with which they sought to tempt him back to the enjoyment of material things. Brokers who knew the brute have actually declared that Tiger was several times surprised weeping canine tears! But then Wall street men are senatiment! and imaginative as a rule. One day Tiger, who had been on a hunger atrike of unusual duration, reached out his gaunt yellow jaws and took from thepile at the end of the lunch counter of the old — street establishment a sandwich containing a thin slice of beef tongue. An unsympathetic waiter yelled at him and Kicked him. Of itself it was but atrifie. In other days Tiger would have responded to this familiarity by WHERE THE BORA BLOWS.

Curious Reminders of Old Feudal Times— The Brigaadse’ Former Eyrie—The Pu- grim Church of Tersate and Its Legend About the Holy Virgin’s House—A Wind That Is Worse Than Our Cyclones. Special Correspondence of SUNDAY Post-DrspaTctH. IUME, March 1.— Austro-Hungary has a smaller area of coast land than any other or the Eu- ropean powers. Great Britain, being an isiand, is en- tirely surrounded by water. Italy is bor- dered by land only to the north, and France to the east. | Germany disposes over a considerable stretch of coast-land along the East Sea and the North Sea. Rus- sia also owns a portion of the East Sea coast, as well as that of the Caspian and the Black Sea. But the shore line between Aquileja and Spitza is the only coast land of which Austro- Hungary can boast. Norway and Sweden, as well as Spain, which do not count among the great powers of Europe, are washed almost entirely by the waters of the ocean. Austro- Hungary is therefore a dominion of a strictly continental character. A large por- tion of the urea of the empire is covered by aseaporttown. Flume lies in the most re- mote corner of the so-called ‘‘Quarnero’’ of the Northeastern bay of the Adria. he coast is 80 closely hugged by islands of every poss!- ble size t one cannot seg the open ocean even when standing upon on ot the hills near Fiume; the aspect, as it presents itself to the eye, is that of a lake, heré and there with sailing vessels. Now and then the smoky trail of adistant steamer hangs over the deep-blue mirror of this basin ot water which seems locked in from all sides. Tall, barren mountains form the frame for one side ot this picture, while tow island ridges with rocky cones rising to a moderate height border the other side. This natural isolation is the cause of typical peculiarities, such as one meetsonly in Fiume and ite en- virons, and a longline of striking iliustra- tions could be recorded for the same. The sheltered location of the strip of land on the west side of the gulf has made Abbazia with its groves of perennial green and excel: lent climate famous as a health resort. In strange contrast to this luxurious verdure are the neighboring mountains, which in their lower regions are almost devoid of any vege- tation, while their upper portions consist of nothing but barren, dreary rocks. One of Fiume’s special peculiarities is the flerce ‘‘Bora,’’ a cold northeastern gale which razes the ground, destroying vegeta- tion, demolishing everything that comes in its way, even throwing railroad trains off the track. Another one is its lack of runnin waters, which are replaced by a number o springs that bubble out of the sand along the coast of the sea. Walking along the strand of Abbazia, or Fiume, one notices in the usually quiet shoal-water a constantly BUBBLING MOTION. This is caused by the small springs and brooks, which ooze through the clefts of the coast mountains and empty into the ocean underneath the waters. Fiume has one river, as ita name indicates, but it is v different from its kind. This river—the lumara— spurts in a large billow from the mountains and empties into the sea after a short course, during which it takes up a small fork, which drives a number of mills. The neighboPnood of Fiume is tull of inter- esting points,among them the railroad, which leads irom here through the dreary, tattered highlands of the Karst Mountains to Karl- stadt and Agram. The plateaus of the high- lands are covered with immense, splendid oak forests, which are owned by the Bavarian Prince of Thurn and Taxis; A curious re- minder of the old feudal times is the Burg Castua, perched high on arock—the former eyrie of the Liburnian brigands—buat now a place of refuge of the national insurrection- ists, who are seeking to bring about a Croatian empire. Near by the ruins of a Church are found with a few remaining columns and vaults; this echureh, bullt upon a high mountain- terrace, looks very picturesque, and between its battered breaches affords a splendia out- look upoa the undulating, balf-barren Inland; but a view, such as one enjoys from the bas- tion-like front part of the terrace is seldom found. Before us sprgads the entire gulf, and seen from this height it looks more than ever like the basin of alake surrounded by natural shores; beyond it expands the fertile oasis of Abbazia, nestling against the tall Monte Maggiore, the largest mountain within the sphere of the Quarnero and its highlands in the rear. Another remarkable sight is afforded by the elevation of Tersato, in the name of which that ot the ancient city Tarsatica has been preserved. The summit of the mountain, which projects into the air on the opposite bank of the Fiumara, is crowned with an old, decaying castie of the quondam Counts Frangipani, and is now in possession of Count Nugent. From the bank of the Fiumara a stair-case of 400 steps with many broad land- ings leads to this castle. etween the crumbling walls and covered with rosemary, and evergreens stands the eagle crowned column, which Bonaparte erected on the the Alps and other large mountain ranges, —— 2 4A CROATIAN PEASANT-GIRL.

No wonder then that up to now Austro- Hungary could boast of no large seaport, ex- cept Trieste, but the Magyars have at last suc- ceeded in raising the small, insignificent vil- lage of Fiume to the position of a seaport town ot second rank. It took millions of dol- lars and no small investment of political power to bring about this change. The sudden rise is noticeable everywhere. The town looks larger, more beautifal and oung and fresh, like any modern city; the acilities of the harbor have been greatly im- roved, and the volume ofthe commerce has ncreased considerably. Still it cannot be said to compare with Trieste.

Alongside this his- torical monumentof vanished grandeur are spread the marble slabs, underneath which the members of the Nugent family sleep their last sleep, and around these white coverlets the rosemary clusters profusely, forming a perfect thicket of blooming fragrancy. IN A CELLAR-LIEE VAULT all kinds of curious finds and treasures are preserved. Near the old castie, around which a semi- modern, simple 88 has been dbullt, standes the little Pilgrim Church of Tersato— „Stella Maris.’’ It is filled with votive gifts, dedicated tothe Holy Mother by fishermen and sailors, who ave 2... ved through her aid of thelr troub- les and earthly ills. An old, well-known legend is connected with the spot, and I will repeat it for the benefit of my readers. It runs as follows: When the infideis desecrated the little house at Nazareth, in which the Virgin Mary dwelt, it filled her with great sorrow, and she commanded a host of holy angels to carry off her former home to another place. They took the house upon their wings and during one night carried it from Naza- reth to this mountaia summit near the Gulf of Tarsatica. Here it remained only a short tume, because tne conditions of that country were not much better than those of Palestine, then in the hands of the Saracens. So the angels moved it once more and placed it on the Laurentian Mountain. There, at Loreto, a magnificent cathedral enshrines the simple homestead of the Savior and als sainted mother. Its walis are gorg ecorated with Sansavino’s master works of sculpture. . 1 7 8 of, nonege the M to names of the blic dulld ings and some of the bt che esaae the —— stitious beliefin t the cloud. . la pr ; and the fear of the were and „ ~ SE A METHOD IN HIS MADNESS.

Mathews & Smyth’s ‘‘Burgiar’’ completely filled the Arch Street Theater, Philadelphia, last Monday, where the pretty Play has made a telling bit. The Burglar’’ has been a big money winner this season, and the clever young managers are heartily con- Kratulated on the success of their first tour. Henry Irving will probably be seen as a voung lover for the last time in his approacn- ine production of Merivale’s romantic drama, The Master of Ravens wood, founded on Scott's Bride of Lammermoor. Merivale has gone crazy since the play was finished. The piece will be put on the stage witha setting such as nothing inspired by Scott ever re- ceived before. On last Monday night a new system of ticket selling, somewhat similar to that in vogue at Daly’s Theater, began at the Casino in New York. Purchasers of seats instead of being given tickets were asked fortheir names and a numbered coupon was handed them, which was exchanged in the evening for their cou- pons. It is thought that the new system will do away entirely with ticket speculators. There are always more or less difficulties to encounter in running a tank drama, and espe- olally one in which a woman takes an active part. An audience always expects to see somebody leap into the water, and, if a woman is advertised, a woman it must be. For this reason the Dark Secret’’ Co. always carries more than one lady who does not object to a bath in public now and then. There are three of them in this company, Misses Beatrice Lieb, Nellle Billings and Lilly Billings. during the weer. be cast is as follows: CAST OF CHARACTERS. Mr. Henry V.
