Deeial Cablegram to the Post-Dispaten. LONDON, June 28. INCE the confilet be- tween the Turkish soldiers and the Armenians at Erze- roum much alarm has been felt in diplo- mate circles here and onthe continent. It is feared that Russia may at last be com- pelled to take the initiative step to pro tect the long perse- appealed in vain to England, Germany and Austria to uphold the terms of the treaty of Berlin com pell- ing Turkey to recognize the .« rignts of Armenians as stipulated in that agree- ment of the powers. At the present moment there is a committee of distinguished - Armenians in London who have been here for the past six weeks appealing to Lord Balis- bury for help. The danger now is that the conflict in Erzeroum may lead to open rebel- lion all over Armenia, in which Russia would ' wndoubtedly take sides with the Christians and seize Erzeroum, if notthe whole of Ar- menia, thus bringing on the long-dreaded @atastrophe ofa European war. Russia at the present moment has a large force within easy marching distance of Erzeroum aud could overrun the whole country beforeanyof the powers could bring troops into action. ; SPORADIO OUTBREAKS. An idea ofthe present state of affairs in Armenia can be gatnered from tie following N Gispatch just recelved from a correspondent ' at Constantinople: Information has been re- ecived here that sporadic cases of insurreo- tion have lately occurred in Armenia, arising from the conduct of the Turkish authorities. | A general supervision of the Christians all | @verArmenia was recently ordered, and se- » ‘Were measures are being taken against all | portions suspected of having weapons. The British Consul ut Erzeroum, Mt. Clifford Floyd, has reported to the British Foreign Office that it it is deemed advisable to keep upa proper supervision of the Turkish adminis- tration in Armeniathe Consulate staff in that country will have to be increased. Private letters received from Armenia give the most horrible details of cruelties quite recently practiced by the Turkish authorities on Armenian peasants in the district of Khanoos between Bitlis and Erzeroum. TURKISH BRIGANDS. Armenians traveling inthe Vilayetof Erze- roum are continually stopped and searched for papers and documents, inthe hope that eorrespondence may be found that will enable the authorities to discover how news of Armenian affairs finds its way abroad. So- @alled brigands are frequently merely Gov- @roment omaelals acting under Instructions. Complaints are becoming very general here in Constantinople of the Turkish treatment toward ladies walking inthe streets. During the last few days several such cases have oc- @©urred in the Grande Rue in Pera, and the general arrogance of the soldiers towards all Ohristlans has become very noticeable. Even Turkish ladies are not exemptfrom similar inspite. 95 — —— — —- BRITISH FOLITICS, The Government Party Changes Front Irish Laed Purchase. ‘Special Cablegcram to the Post-Dispatch. ONDON, June 2.— The abandonment by the Salisbury Cabinet of the compensation clauses in the license bill is simply a matter of seit- preservation, for it has been evi- dentfrom the day of the great Hyde Park demonstration that all other questions were becoming subordin- ate to the Issue bo- ween the temperate sentiment of the country and the government as champion of the pub- licans. While the Liberal party has been «a ale in Parliament in opposition to this, es to other government measures, & good many supporters of the Liberal party bave favored the Dill, and especially in Ire- land, where the liquor dealers remonstrated ip no uncertain tone against the course of Mr. Farnell in antagonizing the Government prop- osition. On the other hand, the desertion of Liberal-Unionists from the Torry banner has much more than off-set any gain of the kind Gescribed, and it has become more and more apparent that the Government’s majority would not stand the test of a final vote on the Dill. The enormous petitions presented in behalf of the publicans bad but little weight with the commons. The petitions are sala to bave been procured to order, so much a head Deing paid for namesfrom funds contributed by the brewers. This being generally Known, the moral weight of the petitions was not so great as it might have been bad the names, like those on the thpusands of temperance me- morials, expressed a spontancous sentiment. NO CAUSE FOR DISSENBION. The abandonment of the essential feature of he measure relating to publicans leaves the Government majority inthe House of Com- " gone withoutany cause of ei. a4 Ae * U 4 U 1 a walt the autumn session has also virtually shelved the cardinal measure in its plan for the conciliation of Ireland. Like the publi- cans’ compensation bill the land purchase scheme touches the British pocketbook, and this is quite sufficiedt to make it unpopular. The English people are not in any mood for buy ing out cash landlords. With its two great schemes of policy thus cast adrift, the Govern- ment will retire to the obscurity of the sum- mer vacation, somewhat impaired in prestige, but still in possession of power. THE COMMONS LEADERS. The politicel situation here as far as the Unionists are concerned continues very criti- cal. The Giscoptent in the Tory ranks with the leadership of the Commons by smith and Goschen is growing acute, and to restore con- fidence between the followers and leadersa change !s deemed imperative. Balfour is working this. He wants to succeed Smith, but the Liberal Unionists wont tolerate this. To have Goschen superseded would minim!ze their influence In the Cabinet. Salisbury won't give the Commons’ leadership to Goschen, but offered it to Hartington if he joins the Cabinet. Hartington is most re- luctant to accept, but cicqumstances may force him to. Though thoroughly Tory in feeling he olings from family tradition to the name Liberal and really hopes the Liberal party may ultimately be reunited without his incurring the odium of taking office in a Tory Cabinet. Chamberlain, on the contrary, is using all his influence to compel Hartington to accept Salisbury’s offer as he is most eager to get into the Cabinet. Cham- beriain on his side, is anxiousto gaina foot- hold in the Tory party. Neither bopes nor desires a return ofthe Radicals. But among the Tory rank and lle, a movementison foot to induce Salisbury to take back Church!!! as the Commons leader. The proposal is utterly distasteful to Salisbury. Balfour, if this is persisted in, may entirely disrupt the Tory party and compe! Salisbury to dissolve the Alinistry. THE GRAND OLD LEADER. Gladstone’s declination to have the mame of the Liberal party cbanaed to the ‘*Giadstonian Liberal, is founded, as he states, not only in the objection that the change would be too flattering to himself. but also in his unwillingness to admit that the emall section of the Liberals now com- bined with the Tories have any longer a title tothe party name. During the memorabie session now drawing toa close, Mr. Gladstone has well maintained his leadership and proven his wonderful ability to cope with the most vigorous advocates of the Government policy. His mental and physical powers seem to be admirably pre- served and he was never more an idol of the masses than to-day. Hawarden has beens Mecca of pilgrimage from all parts of the kingdom and the grand old leader is receiving in his lifetime the honor usually accorded to the truly great only after death MR. CAINE’S CAMPAIGN. The test of popular opinion on the question of compensation to publicans, which is the basis of Mr. Caine’s campaign at Barrow-in- Furness, is attracting more attention than bas been given to any single election in Eng land in many years, and the ocontestfor the seat promises to be waged with a degree of bitterness that will. sever many Iifelong friendships. Cardinal Manning has taken part in the campaigntothe extentof writing a letter to Mr. Caine,in which he bids that gentieman godspeed in the cause of which he has made himself the champion. The venerable prelate writes that he has always refused to take part In political matters, but he regards the present issue as a question of morale and therefore feels called upon to ex- press his views and declare his preferences. The action of the Barrow Liberals in putting upa candidate renders Mr. Oaine’s return extremely unlikely, while Lord Hartington’s telegram advising the Unionists to support the Tory candidate is believed to be of suf- ficient weight to give the seat to the Conserv- atives. Mr. THE LONDON LIBERALS. The London Liberals have espoused the cause of the police in their attempts to ob- tain recognition of their demands and will en- deavor to have the matter discussed in Parlia- ment with a view of putting an end tothe un- certain state of affairs which now exists. Bradford has used all the influence he posses- ses with Home Secretary Matthews tothe end of inducing that officialto make no conces- sions to the force and has represented himself as being thoroughly capable of dealing with similiar trouble in the future. — — AFFAIRS IN (UBA. Raided by Brigands—High Duty on Amer can Flour— Notes. Special Cablegram tothe Post-Dispatch. — AVANA, June 28.— D 1 The brigands under _— command of Manuel , Garcia are having everything thelr own way in the vicinity of San Nicolas. Early Friday evening, the 0th Inst., a large number of well- We mounted and armed Uy oO ive men entered. the 5 Ae SD ih a 1 12. i grocery store at EI ue 3 222 Jobo, and after help- ‘ ing themselves to ~~" wines and provisions carried off Don Manuel Campillo. Passing to the farm of Don Fernandez Perez y Calero they took the owner prisoner. This is the boldest act of the brigands. They openly dety the Government, whose troops are al- ways pursuing, but seldom meeting these outiaws. The city authorities are taking measures to put the city ina clean condition, in view of the appearance of cholerain Europe. One or two cases of fever have been reported among the shipping. The weather is very fine, with frequent gentle rains. On the 5th and 6th of July the present duty of $2.25 per bag or Darrel of 80- ealled Spanish flour will be taken of and an additional duty of ps) percent on American flour will make the duty on and after the 5th and 6th of July $5.86 on American flour in bags and barrels. The greater part ot the flour now imported from Spain as Bpanish is Americas, which has been shipped to San Tancer in sacks and barrels without brand and there shipped to Cuba, Now the theory that Spain favors Spanish flour to encourage ber home flour mills is exploded and the Government of the United States will show great indiffer- ence if they take no notice of this barrier set up against American flour, This class of flour having crossed the ocean twice, and been handied twice becomes deteriorated and bakers cannot work it by itself and must mix it with fresh ground American in the propor- tion of 25 per cent American to 75 per cent of old so-called Spanish flour in order to make good bread. - — — — PANITZA DIES, Execution ef the Censpirator atthe Bulga- riaw Capital.

Banquetting Parnell—What He Says of His Party, * Special Cablegram tothe Fost-Diapatch. ; \ ONDON, June 28.— The birthday banquet of the Irish party to Parnell took place to- night at Westminster Palace Hotel. About sixty-five members of the party were pres- ent. The chair was taken by Justin Me- Carthy. Keferring to Archbishop Walsh’s speech de- nouncing members of the Irish party for not voting in last week’s division when the Government was nearly defeated, the Post. DISPATCH correspondent had a chat with Par- neil last night. Hesaid he was unwilling to anticipate his speech at the ban- quet to-night, but was certainly of opinion that the prospects for home rule were never brighter. He did not wish to criticise Walsh’s letter, butfuliy believed it had been written under a false impression. He had been misled by erroneous reports. With the exception of three or four members, whose attendance on the Heuse was not regular, owing to business pressure or other reasons, the Irish party was never more united and loyal to the cause or more hopeful. In fact, their conduct left nothing to be desired. He pointed to the difficulties in which the Ministers were clouded as a direct result ofthe large attendance and debating attacks of his colleagues. Parnell intended visiting Cork in September to address his con- stituents. He has been prevented in the last three years from doing this on account of II- health, which, however, is now very fair. — — THEATRICAL TOPICS, Miss Davenport’s Enathusiam Over ‘*‘Cleo- patra’’—The Kendals—Notes.

How the Coming Maneuvers Will Be Con- ducted New Ships Afloat. Special Cablegramte the Peost-Nispateh. LONDON, June 28.—The entire efforts forthe coming British naval maneuvers are devoted to testing the strength of the navy from a commercial point. The Admiralty has been influenced by the remarks of American naval experts and officials, including Zolinski and Whitney, and perceives thatthe probable fu- ture use of the navy may be to merely protect commerce, and itis a generally accepted fact over here that neither ships nor forts are at present in vulnerable. Therefore for such tests as this the next maneuvers will be carried on. On Saturday next the Blenheim, the largest man-of-war that has ever been bullt, will be launched from the Thames Iron Works. To-day the Pallas cruiser floated from the dock at Portsmouth. This is the first vessel of the new class, of which several are to be built within the next few years. _ — T= BORNE TO THE TOMB, Funeral of the Late Gov. MoLeas at Hali- fax.

Late yesterday afternoon Detectives Dotz- man and Fagan arrested Edward Farndell and locked him up at the Four Courts to await an investigation. Farndell is charged witha homicide in giving to the negro, Nathan Clark, wounds which caused his death. The circumstances connected with the case are well-known. On Monday night was found in A yard Pine street. Private Watchman Jackson sent him to the Four Courts on the charge of trespass. On Tuesday morning he was fined $5 and sent to the Work-house. Tuesday evening a wound was discovered in his head by the Work- house guards. He was sent to the City H s- ital where he died on Thursday afternoon. iis skull had been badly fractured, yet the injury had pot been noticed. ‘here was considerabie speculation as to how and when Clark received the wound. Yesterday morning a negro named George Simpson said Clark had told him that on Sunday evening a man known as ‘*‘English Doctor bad hit him. Onthis slender clew the detectives went to adn and soon had their man behind the 8. Farndellisa nurse and came to St. Louls two years ago from England. He lives at 2202 Olive street, where he was arrested. The man tells a very straight story. fie suys that on last Sunday evening he was in the yard in the rear of his boarding- house when Clark, who was employed in an adjacent saloon as a porter, came up and used profane language te a number of littie girls who were playing near-by. Farndell or- dered Clark away and was struck across the breast by astick. He says he then knocked Clark down,striking bim with nothing but his fist. Farndell ingists thatthe fracture must have been inflicted by the fali on the ground. His conclusion Is borne out in a ineasure by the fact thatthe wound which caused Clark’s death is on the back of his head. The prisoner will be held to await the inquest which Coroner Frank will probably hold in the case some time to-day. A SLICK sCHEME, Aided by a Mowing-Machine a Gang Obtain Rich Booty.

The prisoners are George and August Blush and Charles Eolsert. They will be held in the hold-over uatii to-morrow morning, when warrants for burglary and larceny willbe sworn out against them dy their victim. The men confess their guilt. It seems that yesterday afternoon they went to the resi- dence of Charles Smith, 1117 St. Ange avenue, and ftinding no one at home, proceeded to a shed in the rear of the residence, and took out a lawn mower. While one of the men mowed the grass in the yard the other two broke a pane of glass in a rear window. Not only did the presence of the man in the yard avert the sus- picion of the neighbors, but the rattling noise made by the machine drowned the sound of the crashing of the glass. The entire house was ransacked, two gold watches, a silver watch, an amethyst ring, a pair of gold bracelets, a gold pen holder, a shotgun and a case of im- ported wine being taken. The lawn mower also disappeared. The burglarv was discovered yesterday evening and at onoe reported to the police. Detectives McGratb and O'Connell were sent out onthecase. About 1:30 o’clock yester- day afternoon they came suddenly on three men in the alley near Park and Mississippi avenues. The stolen lawn mower was near by. No resistance was made and the prisoners were soon at the Four Courts. There they confessed that all morning they had gove from house to house along certain streets in the southern part of the city for the ostensible purpose of getting a jobtocutthe grass, but in reality to ascertain if the residents were at home. ate in the day all of the jstolen prop- erty was recovered, being found in a house on Papin street. Tue total value of the plunder was over $200. A DESPERATE TRIO, Three Geergians I ngage ina Bloody Com- bat That Ends in the Death of One. Ry Telegraph to the Post-DISPaTou.

Ds MOINES, Io., June28,—The Signal Service crop reports issued to-day by the lowa branch of the National Bureau says that the crops present a good appearance all over the State. Fifty-two counties send in re- ports, and there are only two exceptions to favorable appearance in summing up the matter the report says the great bulk of tbe State is not suffering from either excess or lack of moisture. The week has been generally favorable for clearing corn fields of weeds and for making hay while the sun shines, and the opportunity has been well improved. Corn is making rapia progress except in the limited area visited by heavy showers during the week, and the presen outiook for that crop is nearly as favorable as at the corresponding date last year. Other cereal crops are doing well. The principal complaint being of an excessive growth of straw in some coun- ties, and the appearance of i § rust in the sections where the rainfall was the heaviest during the recent heated term; gen- erally the crop outlook is highly encouraging for a season of bountiful productiveness. The harvest of the winter wheat begun in some of the southern counties and the yieid is good. Barley will soon be ready for the reaper. A New Electric Conduit. By Telegraph to the Posr-Disrarcn.

A recent meeting of the National Ed- itorial Association in Boston gave the New York papers opportunity for another display of a peculiarity which is recog- nized far and wide as a specialty of New York journalism. In a paper on American Journalism” Col. Cas. H.

He then spoke of Mr. JOSEPH PULITZER as his ideal of the most successful living journalist. was rigidly excluded from the published reports of the Wor.Lp’s rivals, and the Herald even took the liberty of trans- forming itinto a puff of its present pro- prietor, thus: In the coursegf his paper the Colonel paid an extended tribute to the proprietor of the New Yorn Herald, whom be styled the great- est all-round journalist the country has ever seen. The same narrow spirit of personal jealousy and business rivalry which sup- presses or expurgates in this petty way all references to each other’s merits or achievements, was recently exhibited in preventing the newspaper employes of New York from giving a brilliant press club reception to Mr. Stevens of the WoRrLD or his return from his remarkably successful African expedition. The poorest and most imbittered rivals in village journalism do not fight each other in this obviously envious and feeble fashion. They do not and dare not expose themselves to local ridicule by showing so little mag- nanimity and so much conscious weak- ness. It is a sure sign of weakness and waning prosperity.

It is the magnanimous public spirit and esprit de corps of journalism that can alone elevate and strengthen it in this country. The opposite spirit only de- grades and weakens newspapers in the esteem of the public, and only the most purblind selfishness is guided by it. — — —̃̃̃—q—— —2ũ Two ROYALTIES were feted in England yesterday. ‘*‘The uncrowned King of Ireland’ was congratulated on his 44th birthday and the Queen of England was congratulated on the fifty-second anniversary of her coronation.

A New Union Depot Is to Be Built at Twenty-Second and Wash- * ington Avenue. Jay Gould’s Emissaries Have Se- cured Large Parcels of Valuable Property Already.

Millions ef Dollars Frem the Railroad Cof- fers Going Inte St. Louis Real Estate in Carrying Out a Gigantic Pian of Passen- ger and Freight Termisals—The Tunnel te Be Extended Along Washingten Av- enue From Eighth Street te the New Union Depot at Twenty-Second Street. St. Louis is te have a new Union Depot. It is to be located at Twenty-second and Washington avenue, a The SUNDAY Fosr- Disrarck is enabled to make this announcement to-day on reliabie information, Emissarles of Jay Gould have alreacy secretly purchased hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of property on the line which will bethe connecting hichway between the new Union Station and Mill Creek valley, the great railroad outlet to the West and South. Mr. Charles Barney’s new residence has just been bought and an option asked for on Mr. John T. Davis’s nome. The plan as perfected aud according to which the magnate and his St. Louis repre- sentatives are now workiag quietiy, proposes the extension ofthe tunnel from Seventh and Washington avenue, where it now turus to the south, to the sheds at Twelfth and Poplar streets, directly west to the new Union Station. The grades of the old Camp Spring Valley, well suited to the levels of Mill Creek Valley, every available foot of which is now occupied by railroad tracks, first suggested the engineering advantages of this line of movement. Ihe large parcels of vacant property between Twentieth and Twenty-third streets, Washington avenue and Olive streets, held by wealthy estates in the hope ofa big boom as a business center was another stroug consideratiou in the minds of Mr. Gould and his consulting engineers. The drift of manufacturing concerns towards the Camp | Spring Valley was a third recommendation andthe feasibility of extending the tunnei from Seventh street west undera wide thor- oughfare was a conclusive inducement. KEPT A BECRET. The plans have been kept strictly secret and many of Mr. Gould’s employes who are ready to pronounce this news a guess, do so simply because they have not been let into thesecret. There has been greatest need of secrecy in perfecting such immense transactions in real estate to keep down values and to conceal the identity of the purchasers. On the edge of the Mill Creek Valley no attempt to conceal the plans of the Missouri Pacific and the Bridge Co. have been made. Every piece of property offered at sums approaching the real value has been purchased without delay, under the direction of Dr. Wm. Taussig, who has been all powerful in the councils held on this subject. Taussig’s advice has heretofore been to buy property south of Market street be- tween Nineteenth and Twenty-third; this has met with favor probably because it was in accord with Gould’s ulterior plan of building at Washington avenuc. Yesterday Mr. Charles E. Barney’s resi- dence, No. 2228 Lucas place, originally pur- chased for $24,000, was sold to Gould’s repre- sentatives for $25,000. An option bas likewise been secured on the residence of Mr. John T. Davis at Twenty-second and Lucas. Other parcels of property located in the same territory have been the subject of mysterious inquiry by representatives of Mr. Gould. A THIN EXPLANATION. It has been given out as a great secret that a nameless syndicate is buying property on the line between Twentieth and Twenty- third, north of Olive street, with an idea of getting a switch into that territory and thereby making it valuable business property. This report was intended to divert suspicion from the real purchasers, It would be a far simpler scheme to get an ordinance passed provid- ing fer a system of tracks having the tempting new Union Depot attached to the North Endthan to get a single switch across the streets for the accommoda- tion of any such private enterprises. There ie no question but that large transfers have been secretly made and the theory that the purchases are for a secret syndicate play- ing forthe remote chance of getting a switch across Olive street it is not convincing. MR. GOULD’S INSPECTION. During the last visit of Jay Gould to Bt. Louis it was evident that something was in the wind. He held a conference with a num- ber of real estate owners and railroad men at the St. Louis Club, aud the party did not disperse until after8o’clock in the morning. So great a departure from Mr. Gould's usual habits was regarded as signify- ing that some important plan was under con- sideration, and his movements were watched very closely by the initiated during the remainder of his stay. He inspected all the rallroad lines and both the bridges, which was to have been expected, but his close examination of the Camp Spring Valley and the land lying to tune north of it, gave rise to mo little com- ment. Why he should be interested in this particular part of the city no one could understand. The probable explanation is to be found in the scheme for a New Union Depot. This Mr. Gould bas repeatedly said that he would build, but has always been ex. ceedingly reticent as to its location. PURCHAGES HAVE BEEN MADE. John Mahon, a member of the House of Del. egates, who gives some attention to railroad matters, was asked it be had heard anything ofthe new plan. He replied that he had not. “I knew that some purchases were being made In the neighborhood of Twenty-third and Lu- cas Place, he said, dut as far asl have heard are not for a un lon depot I understand that the purchases are being made by a syn- dicate which proposes to bufid a switob for the purpose of accommodating the manufac- turing interest which is locating there. But that is the only information I have about it. As oe Dr, | The plan of Mr. Gould’s lieute | fore has been to locate the dep of Market street, between Eighteenth and Twenty-first streets, in what (ts known as Mill Creek Valley. Fully two years ago the representatives of the Gould interests began buying up every piece of property offered in that ter- ritory and as far Cast as the present depot. The arrangements were mainly in the hands of Dr. Taussig, the shrewd manager of the Bridge & Tun- nel Co., whose finesse in sucb matters has largely aided Mr. Gould in his St. Louis transactions. One of the largest pieces secured is the Mis- sourl Rallway car stables on the south side of Market street, between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets and ex- tending back to Walnut atreet. Nexotiations bave been in progress for the purchase of the Goodwin Candle Co. 's works at Twentieth and Poplar street. The plant covers a large plece of ground, and the owners have resolutely held out for halt 4 million dollars, The owners of the iron- works on Market street west of Tweuty- first street, formerly occupied by the Malle able Iron Co., have been offered $150 per foot for the property. In the gerieral purchase of land in the Mill Creek Valley ivaugerated two yeurs aco, John B. Clements, the former regident engineer ot the Missouri Pacific Co., took an active part, It was known then that Dr. Taussig pre- ferred a depot south of Market to any other location, and as he was considered almost supreme in matters pertaining to Mr. Gould’s interests in this city, it was never doubted that he spoke by the card, when said the depot would stand on a site south of Market street. The ground secured, however, is as necessary for the carrying out of the new plan as it would be if a final decision was reached to execute the former idea. It is necessary for the tracks and to furnish the necessary room for switching purposes. DR. TAUSSIG SAYS NO PURCHASES ARE MADE. It is a well known fact that Dr. William Taussig, President of the Terminal Rallway Association, has had a hand in negotiating ail real estate deals for the railroads south of Market street, ever since the agitation for a new depot and terminal facilities began and it was thought he might have some information to impart to the public about the new scheme tust developed. He was seen at his home on Whittemore place last night and, though called from bed, was very agreeable. He had no information to impart to the public, however. When asked if the Frisco, Atchison and Merchants’ Terminal roads in conjunction with the Terminal Association of which he is the President had not and were notengaged in buying up all the property they could lay their hands on, around Sev- enth, Eighth and Ninth streets and Gratiot | street and Chouteau avenue, he said: ‘*That is all rank nonsense. Nothing of the kind is going on at all. „s it not a fact that men are now at work buying up property about Twenty-second street and Lucas place for the Terminal Asso- ciation and its seven railroad members?’’ was asked. No, that Is also rank nonsense. foolish scheme. I would know something about it it it was going on, and I must say I can give you no information about it at all. The newspapers and the public have been guessing as to tbe localitz of the depot for some time, and I think they will keep on guessing.’’ VICE-PRESIDENT CLARK DECLINES TO ANSWER. 8. H. H. Clark, Second Vice-President and General Manager of the Missouri Pucific sys- tem was called on at alate hour at his res- dence last night by a SUNDAY Post-DISPaTCH reporter, who was pleasantiy received, not- withstanding the hour. „Mr. Clark, isthe new Union Depot to be built at Twenty-second street and Washing- ton avenue?’’ asked the reporter. ‘*‘I really cannot say. Lam not informed on the subject, but will refer you to Dr. Taussig.’’ Is it true that the Missouri Pacific Co. has been purchasing property in that vicinity; that they have purchased the Missouri Rail- way Co. s stabiles and a great deal of rezidence property?’’ . He nesitated for a moment and then sald: *‘T cannot say anything about it. **Do you know whether the location for the new depot has been decided on as yet or not?’’ *‘*I really cannotsay. I was not present at the last meeting held and therefore am not informed as to what took place. I must refer you to Dr. Taussig for any information on the subject. Mr. Clark, do you think that the depot will be built at that location?’’ „Jean tell you nothing about it. see Dr. Taussig.’’ Mr. Clark then sald good night, and closed the window. One of those who wasin consultation with Jay Gould at the meeting at the St. Louis Club, was S. M. Dodd. Acallwas made upon bim last night to ascertain whether or not he knew anything of the proposed change, but he stated that he knew nothing of Mr. Gould’s Union Depot plans. An interested property holder stated that he had learned from a real estate agent that Gould was the owner of an old franchise which allowed his road to cross Twenty-Grst street. He had been shown plans foranew Union Depot, to be bullt between Washington aveuue and Lu- cas place and Nineteenth and Twenty-first streets, but believed that it would be moved a square or two west. THE ATCHISON PURCHASES. In oppostion to the Gould scheme the Atchi- son, Topeka & Santa Fe has a most stupendous dealon hand. This road has been buying up such an amount of property on tiie south side and adjacent to the Merchants’ Terminal land that railroad men who are posted say it is now an assured fact that the Atchison is to secure possession of the Merchants’ Terminal property, 80 as te be able to checkmate Gould. During the past few weeks the Atchison has bought up nearly the whole of the immense biock bounded by Eighth and Ninth streets, Ghouteau avenue and Gratiot street. They have purchased the Levering strip, the Knapp strip, the Germania property, and, in fact, the. entire block, with the exception of the lot in the center of the block facing on Crouteau avenue, on which a manufactory is located, the Toensfeld Institute and the Ca- talpa Street Swimming School. These prop- erties they are now endeayorisg to secure, and if they are successful they will be in complete owner shiv of the whole block. When the com- pany fret began buying property there it was against the opposition of these who Knew of the purchases, that the land was being acquired for the Tor- minal which ran through 4 1 of the Dillon estate on de io) side of Gratiot strees, The inves . „ G ss 8 phe ais * * A, * * * a 2 i You must r * 1 te * — a — os 0 n 1 * * 2 * ms 5 > Itis a up an opposition which will make Gould wince, notwithstanding his magnificent projects. quired is more than the Merchants’ Terminal could possibly bave any need of, and the pur- chase is therefore plainly what has been in- dicated. The purchase of the Frisco by the Atchison was one of the biggest deals in railroads which has cecurred in the country for many years, and its Importance to 81. Louis bas never deen thoroughly under- stood or appreciated. In acquiring the Frisco, the Atchison made its system the greatest in the country, with the exception of the Pennsylvania Central. It has now a com plete circuit and St. Louis is the central point in it, WHAT IT MEANS TO ST. LOUIS. ‘*The Atchison,’’ said a prominent railroad man last evening, is almost bound to make St. Louis its objective point. It is in every way its advantage to do so, and the purchuses which it has been making show clearly that the intention of the management isto make St. Louis its grand terminus. What does that mean? It means tuat all its principal offices will be located in this city and it means that as soon as this is ac- complished St. Louis will receive what advantage can be given itia rates from every point oa th‘s magnificent system, the second greatest in the United States. This is bound to be. The road will have to work for St. Louis to help ite own immense interests here, Why Itell you that withthe tncreased trade that will come to St. Louls through this system, and the C., B. & Q. system making this city their objective point, the town will increase its population nearty 300, 00 in five years. The C., B. & O. has already taken measures to make St. Louis its objective point by buy- Ing up an immense amount of property lu the East End. Itwill build a new bridge across the Missouri river ana erecta magnificent depot in the vicinity of Third and Franklin avenue, and St. Louis will then be the city in whose interests all its rates will be made. The Atchison road, having acquired the Frisco, has been compelled to keep pace with the Q. and the Missouri Pacitic and Wabash, and now that the Q. is to have terminals through the East End and Gould is arranging to extend his terminals to Twenty-second and Washington avenue, the center of what promises in a few years to be an immense manufacturing district, the Ateh ison has determined not to be left and has been investing here with the Intention as is clearly shown of obtaining possession of the Merchants’ Terminals. When the deals now on are thoroughly consummated, as they are bound to be, St. Louis will have three of the most complete and largest railroad sys- tems in the entire country. — — Güẽ— —ñ—ñ— — Ihe Street Compmissioner’s Office. St Louis, June 28. To the Editor ofthe Post- Dispatch: Should our Street Commissioner bea civil engineer? seems to be the question between the Mayor and the City Council. The Mayor claims that only executive and business ability are needed at the head of the Street Department, while the Council maintains that only a man of techaical experience should be intrusted with the important business of that branch of the city government. Department reveais a strong argument in favor ofthe Council’s position. Numberless questions arise which are peculiarly within the province of the engineer. The construc- tion, maintenance and renewal of our macadam, granite, asphalt and wood paved streets, the advisability of using new mate- rials in street work, the feasibility of pro- posed subdivisions of property, viewed in connection with the general plan of the city and the drainage question; the establishment of grades—these and other matters are con- tinually presenting probleme which would be entirely foreign to the business man's exper!i- ence, but right in line with the training ofa competent engineer. Possibly the Mayor thinks his business man would be 80 reinforced by the present strong organization of the department, that his lack of practical knowledge could do no harm, but it would certainly make him almost entirely dependent upon subordinates. Our citizens are entitled to a Street Commissioner who can understandingly discuss with them the multi- form business which takes them to bis office— a Street Commissioner,in short, whe could be master Of the situation. We want more than a figure head, or a mere appointing power. Outside of the varied business of his own de- partment, the Street Commissioner has most important aud responsible duty in the com- mittee work of the Board of Public Improve ments. Large questions of public policy, all of vital import, are determined by the board. Street, water, sewer, park, harbor and wharf and public building questions are all consid- ered, and that acivilengineer is more com- petent to pass upon such matters than a purely business man does not admit of doubt. To havea Street Commissioner who would not be perfectly at home with a map and pro- file, a plan and an estimate, would be to cut down the working force of the Board of Pub- lic Improvement one-sixth. Let us have a competent ciyll engineer. Examination for Teachers“ Pasitiens.

These thousands are supported from the riches found inthe mineral deposits of this section, and thelr number is constantly beine Increased, because the profits arising from these pursuits are certain and enduring.

Wash, Secretary and Treasurer of the School Board, one of the oldest residents of St. Louis, died last evening at about 7 o’clock at his home, 1205 Wright street. The immediate cause of bis death was prostration from the extreme heat of yesterday. He came home in the evening complaining of exhaust- jon, but this morning he was anxious to re- turn to his office, having as he thonght, re- covered.

Cincinnati’s Idle Bailders—A Strike of Miners Imniinent—Notes. By Telerrarh tothe Post-DIspaTcr CINCINNATI, O., June 2.—Half-finished buliidings are to be seen all over Cincinnati with nota workman near them. The carpen- ters’ strike, which bv the way is partiya lock-out by the bosses, has stopped stone- setters, bricklayers, painters and others from working. The trades thus em- barrassed sympathize with the strikers. Both parties are stubborn. Some of the bosses say that their strict objection to the demands of the carpenters is that the de- mands make no discrimination between good und bad workmen, whereas they would be willing to increase the wages of first-class workmen, but are unwilling to pay first-class wages to third and fourth class workmen. Rallroad Men’s Grievances. By Telecraph to the POST- DISPATCH. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 28.—Big Four em- ployes are busily engaged in formulating their grievances.

Conductors, engineers, Drakemen, baggace- men and yardmen are represented in the meetings. ine of the interested men said this morning thatthere are scores of griev- ances being considered. Among the most important of these, he sald, are complaints of inequality of wayes forthe same work upon different lines and the amount of overtime required of some of the men. But chief of all, this man continued, ‘‘isthe complaint ofthe men that they are not well treated by certain ofhcers of the company.

The scheme of the syndicate was that each member subscribe about £10, - 000. Itwill never be quoted in the London market.

Special Correspondence of SUNDAY Post-DisPpaTcnu. (Copyrighted 1890.) ASHINGTON, VV oe 27.— Washington is swelter- (ing under a mid-sum- mer sun. The states- men at the Capitol are al in their summer clothes and every man has his { recipe for keeping cool. I know a Senator who takes twelve baths a week at the Govern- ment’s expense, and there are fifteen mem- bers of the lower house who wear seersucker coats and flannel shirts. I visited the Nation- al Museum to-day to see the appliances which the people of the tropics have to keep them- selves cool. The Korean gentieman has a wickerwork shirt which keeps hia clothes away from the body and acts as a sort of ven- tilator, lying between bis abdomen and his gown. He bas wicker cuffs which run from bis wrist to his elbow and which are made of the finest of stiff straw. Thee keep the sleeves away from the person and the Korean Em- Dassy at Washington isthe coolest of all the legations. It is from these wicker busties worn over the belly that the Koreans get their reputation of being such a fat race. They are fat but not halt 80 fat as la supposed. It is this wicker arrangement that increases their apparent avoirdupols, and as fatness in Korea is a sign of wealth there is no hesitancy shown —=— iN SUMMER Ar by a thin man in trying to make himself look like the fat man in the dime museum.

Sandwich Islanders have fans, and some of the South Sea maidens hide their nudity be- bind a fan made of fragrant grass and not more than six inches in diameter. The palm leaf fans of this country and Europe are all made at Canton, in Ubina, and the Chinese ere among the fine fan-makers of the world. During my trip around the world I visited Peking and a number of other Chinese cities and I found who e streets devoted tothe sale of fansand lanterns. Swatow isa cityjlying on the coast between Shanghai and Hong Kong, which is noted for ite fine fans. These fans are of fine puper stretched on a frame which curves at the topandwhich thus pro- duces a sort of bow catching the wind and making them delightfully cooling. The fans are beautifully painted and the pictures on them are the best exhibition of Chinese fan ars. Every Japan- ese man and woman carries a fan and the taunus which we get from Japan are of the — variety. In Japan the gentlemen usually use folding fans aud they carry them in their bosoms, under their collars or stuck into their girdie. It is the ladies who use the flat fans, and it would be contrary to etiquette fora man to appear on the street with a fan that would not old up. Japan has ite fan eti- netie, and there is as much a language of the an as a language of flowers. The pretty Yum Yume of Tokio and Kiota express through fanning what American lovers convey by Rissing, forthe bot osculation of America is Upecnowns amone the Japanese either in the summer or in winter. The Japanese have autograph fans, as we have, and many of tue young people make fan collections containing the signatures of their friends, or verses of poetry written by them. One of the most striking characters of Tokio is an oid fan- seller. She isa woman of about 80, who goes around with fans and brooms, and who cries her wares from bouse to bouse. An important cooling recive of the far East is the bath, and the hot bath is taken by the Japanese several times a day. The bathing ts Gone inthe public bath-rooms or in the pri- Vate tub, and no soap is used. Many Japanese are now parboiling themseiues in water raised to 120 deg. Fahrenheit and the whole family Dathes inthe same tub. There le a model of one of these tubs atthe National Museum and the average Japanese bath tub is about three ' feet high, oval lu shape, and it bas a littie furnace with astove-pipe running up above _ the top of the tub set into one end of it. A 8 ad keeps this stove- pipe from touching * ee and a few moments will heat the Re st: to bolling.

In Tokio and the other large cities of the empire the forelg® influence has produced an order against this common batbing of the sexes, but in the vVil- lages where such an order has been made all the people have done is to draw a string through the center of the bath vat, and the women and children are on the one side while the men are on the otner. At a famous hot springs in the Japanese Mountains I saw both sexes hopping around together in the water, splashing each other and enjoying the sul- p hee withouta thought that there was anything indecent about their actions. The Siamese are so near the Equator that they have about the same hot weather the year around. Every man, woman and child ip Bangkok takes a plunge into the river at least three times a day. Of the 700,000 people in the city at least 600,000 live in floating houses, and inasmuch as the summer costume of the lower classes consists of a garment about the size of a Turkish towel, it is not much trouble for them to go in bathing. They bathe on the steps oftheir houses and stand up tothe waist in the water grunting delightiully as they pour bucket after bucketful over themeelves and their neighbors. The Burmese man and woman takes a bath every night after dinner. This bath is merely pouring water over the person. Soap Is never used and particuler care is used not to wet the bair. At New Year’s, when the weather is as hot as our summer, these peo- ple have what they calla water feast and at this time the whole nation throw water upon one another. All the pretty girls zo out with buckets and the boys have squirt guns, and for three days there is nothing but water-splashing. The foreigners of Rangoon also engage in this GAST INDIAN Vara PEDOLER ., — and the Chinese celebrate the feast with the rest. One Chinamen rigged up a hydrant with a two-inch pipeduring the last feast and as his house was on the main street he had the bulge, as it were, on everyone else. He engaged a coolleto work the machine all day and as he was selling water-works he bad a good advertisement in «ddition to bis fun. A ewell Englishman arrived in Burmah last year during this feast. He went to call on one of the leading men of Rangoon in tall silk hat and biack clothes, and was met at the door by a girl with a bucketof water. The giri asked bim in Burmese as to whether he was observing the water feast, and he supposing that she wanted to know whether he bad come toser her father nodded his head and with that nod this whole bucket of water went over his siik hat and down the back of bis collar completely drenching him. During the same another party of Englishmen were told that some girlie were coming to throw water on them. They had the servants bring out the bath tub and put it on the veranda, and when the girls came they got possession of the bath- tub and splashed the Englishmen untilone of them rushingin seized one of the maidens and, lifting ber up, dropped her lato the tub. This wasconsidered very impolite and young man who dia! suffered by receiving no further attention from these Burmese beauties. Alone the Ganges in India it is a sacred duty ofthe Hindoosto bathe once every day and they can wash away their sins while they are washing their bodies. I have seen 10,000 bathing at the same time at the holy bata steps oY Benares. Thereis, however, no fun about the Hindoo bath. It is all religion and the bathber pravs during the whole time. Both costumes and the men in white flannel! suits. Each player bad a servant to run after the ball for bim when it happened to go outside the bounds, and they did not take a bit more exercise then was necessary. The modes of eXercise in the Far East are of interest to eople who want to keep coo! and still main- ain a healthy condition in hot weather. Foreigners in Asia get up at daybreak, take a good ride across the country or a walk before the sun gets up. They take a sleep in the 1 of the day and work on into the even- whether this has a cooling influence or not J do not Know. A great part of the hard work of the East is done at night, and this is espe- cially so in the great government depart- ments. The King of Korea holds all bis audi- ences at night, and the Emperor of China takes all hie sleep in the daytime This is so with the King of Siam, and the Sultan of Tur- key never goes to sleep until lo’clock in the morning. The quegtion of water in the far East is an Important One and the water-carriers form one of the largest castes of India. Roth here and in Egypt they carry their water in skins | upon their backs and they sell it by the cup and by the skinful.

Remarkable History of tha Eleqhent Jecnit Whe Built St. John's Church atid Who Left All to Become a Southern Chaplain —His Mysterious Departure—The Fame Which He Has Attained Throughout Earope. HE news that Father Bannon is coming to St. Louls on a visit, and very soon, too,’’ is going the rounds of old 8t. Loulsans the past week and creat- ing a sensation wher- ever it is repeated among bis old friends. To tell who Father Bannon is would be a needless explanation to many St. Louis people, for he has the reputation of being one of the best-known and best remembered men. It is now twenty- eight years since he left the city where he is remembered so warmly and well. Since his departure from St. Louls the priest has became a member of the Jesuit order, and his made to the Jesuit fraternity on Grand avenue and the Lindell greet him. On the 15th of December, 1861, Father Ban- in the South as a Chaplin, and since then he has never returned. Though much has been stories told of his fearlessness in the and his conversion and and heroism, anecdotes bravery war, his Father Bannon (Recent Picture). of thousands of soldiers to bis faith that not a complete been published. The SUNDAY PostT- DISPATCH gives an authentic life sketch with extracts from letters during the war written by him to St. Louis friends, and their con- troubled days. These letters, which were con- veyed tothe city by Ab Grimes, and other spies were received under the greatest dim. cuities, and the original letters are filled with instance in alluding to Father Ring, then of St. John’s Church, now amongst the regretted dead, a little cireclet, or drawn rin does duty for the vume and could be deciph.- ered only by the mutual friends of Loth priests. To begin at the bewinning, howeyer John Bannon was born in Duin, lrelang His parents were wealthy and influential. Hig education was placed in the bands of private Later he entered the College or May- nooth, where be completed his education, ang soon uiter received the orders ot a secular priest. At the same college with him wag young Mr. Feehan, who was atterwards or. dained «a priest in America, and e now the Archbishop of Chicago. Shortly after his ordination, Father Bannon, then 1 very young man, came to Amerlen rect to St. Louls, where he was ap- lie remained a year or so at the Cathe. trat and was then appointed with Feather Dug¢en (now Arelhbishop Duggan) to the care he was assistant to Father Dusean for several Father Bannon pastor of the lmmaculate Con. ception Cupreh.

The now use as the lareenial — —gux— — at once begin the building of a new and handsome chureh a#hich was to be considered the West End Church, and which was to be erectec on Chestnut and Sixteenth streets. He at once commenced the work, and before two years the handsome St. John’s was erected, which is yet one of the largest in the city. At the same time that young Father Bannon was erecting St. John's Church, young Father Ryan (now the Arehbishop of Phiiadeiph ian), was busy Obureh of Annunciation on Sixth and L badie streets. There was much friendly rivairy between these two young and popular priests. Father Bannon always aliuded to his friend Father Ryan as The Rising Sun, sliuding to his rapid ascent and ina covert fashion to his red hair. Father Ryan, however, was equally active in jokes at Father Bannon’s Father Bannon Twenty-Eight Years Ago. expense. A mutual lady friend of both had a handsome gift suitable for a priest which she was undecided whether to present to Father Bannon or Father Ryan. Upon some one repeating this to the latter he replied quietly: On, without doubt she will give it to the man who was sent from God and whose name is John,“ and sure enough she did. St. John’s Church was completed in October, 1860. Before the dedication a larze fair was held in the building forthe benefit of the ohureh. This fair willbe remembered by old st. Loulsans as baving created a great stir atthetime when fairs were so fashionabie. Five thousand dol. lars was cleared at this one. Directly after this the charch was consecrated with impos- ing ceremonies, and for one year Father Ban- non remained in charge of the parish: But the civil war was in the beginning, and Father Bannon was deeply interested in the souls of the soldiers who went from the city to the dangers inthe South. The idea of joining the Confederate army as chaplain was first con- ceived when a number of young men be- longing to a temperance “peer | of which he was head, joined the Washington Biues’’ of which Capt. Kelly was in com- mand, and went South with that company. He felt assured that the Archbishop would not give his consent to bie going South. 80 Father Bannon made his preparations to leave the city secretly, and in disguise, leaving a letter acquainting His Grace of his departure. The disguise of Father Bannon andthe story of the reception of his letter has already been related in a recent issue of the SUNDAY PoOsST-DISPATCH in the sketch of the Archbig 1 of St. Louls. He kept his secret weil, and bade good-bye to only one or two friends, and his departure from the city was accom ned one Sanday afternoon in company with several other men who were coing South. The knowledge of hie departure was at first scarcely credited. Father Bannon joined Gen. Price’s army, and he at once entered into the career he had chosen. Catholics and Protestants alike felt bis influence. He was impartial in his care of each and all, and his memory is alike dear to men of allreligions. Dr. G. M. B. Mauyhs of this city, who was a physician in the same army, and whose religious convictions are of no particular order, ig an enthusiastic nar- rator of the great good accou:plished by the St. Louls war priest. He says there was no braver man on tne battle- eld, no more zealous attendant on the dying. He was always in the front of battle. 0 never uttered a word of complaint. He was always cheerful as « song, aud his letters to his friends all this time never even hinted at his triais or sufferings. The following letter is ou ie soon after his departure by a t. us trend: on Ee "RICEVILLE, Miss. , July 16, 1862, My Dran FRIEND—For the fret time since my ar- rival at the headquarters of the Rebel Army, I bave an opportunity of writing by a messenger going directly to st.

Then I would be entitled toa salary of $100 of my per month, but trusting as I do on the voluntary gifts the Catholics whom serve, I think I fare much better than I would as a commissioned chaplain. Since my arrival in Springfield I have messed with Col (pee General) Little of Price’s army, and formerly (for twenty-two years) an officer of the Federal army and son-in-law of Col. Morrison. Inthe same mess are M. C. Shaumberg of Lucas place and Frank Von Phul, members of Gen. Little's staff. All articles procured for the mess are charged in the account, the amount divided between us when the bill comes in to be paid. Considering that we are represented through the world as in a starving condition, we live verv well. Now, fr dinner to-day we had, besides tomatoes, egg plant, oyster plant,’ potatoes and onions, fresh butter, Worcestershire sauce, good light bread, roast lamb and a young pig, with apple ple. Telithat to the Feds. who by all accounts are starving in Arkansas, and not much better off in Corinth by all accounts. The only privation we suffer is separation from our friends; our only regrets the protracted delay of a reunion. We have never suffered from want of provisions, fresh meat and salt, flour and meal since my arrival at the army, although at times we have been march- ing to the field or retreating, beine separated from our train fora few days. And the proof of my state- ment is supported by the fact that New Orleans draws its flour from Mobile and its beef from Texas by tol- eration of the Confederate Government under a flag oftruce. How did you relish the news of our defeat at Chickahominy? Weare ve apprehensive that England or France will rob us of the honer of forcing a recognition from the North by interfering in our affairs.

There has been a mixture of bear and bull markets in wheat ot late. Early in the week the bears had it all their way and crowded the price down to the lowest point that has been seen since the top prices of the late boom were left. On Thars- day July sold at 835eac., August at S28@lec and December at Ses, a decline in July from the top figures of 12%c commissions paid. Since then there have been sharp rallies and rapid declines, on Thursday touching 888 for July, Sale fot August and Se for December. The close yesterday was at S4le@Sec" sellers for July, S3%c bid for August and 87lgc December. Depressing influences have been the extreme duliness and weakness in the cash article, the fine quality of the new wheat arriving, the magnificent harvest weather, reports from come sections of a larger yield (as evidenced by the threshing returns) than had been looked for, the expectation of arrivals in a short time, the usual run of gilt-edged reports from the Northwest and weak markets atail other points. On the other side have been larger export clearances from the seaboard and reports of export buying at New York, firmer cables. advices from the other side that crop prospects were not 80 favorable as they have been and fears of damage to spring wheat by hot, wet weatner. until this Northwestern crop is beyond the danger line can the bears safely count upon an unobstructed | campaign.

Curcaco, June 28.—Each day has brought its petty excitement in the wheat deal, and to those who are not in the habit of keeping tab and making occasional comparison the market has seemed to have a ‘*tendency’’ or swing. As a matter of fact prices are about where they were a week ayo, al- though the extreme range in that time has been about Mie. Low point was reached on Wednesday and since then the swing of the pendulum bas been backward. It has been a narrow market with liqui- dation by July longs and shorts about the only feature. Latterly the row between the Hoard of Trade and the elevator interests has caused a nerv- ous feeling to pervade the legitimate receiving and handling trade, The market bas been narrow and It has been manipulated as far as was possible in the interest of the carriers and elevator companies. Premiums on the long futures would be sprung out whenever the Fo epee resented and then the carriers would the enthusiast full on the rallies. t been a market for benefit the of iueiders, the general market the it seems sense of the trade that the promise of a 420,000, to 435,900,000 bu crop has been discounted suf ciently for the present im the decline from 97i2e to „and a strong disposition is manifest to halt and await Northwestern developments before riding the market down any further, A day may change all this, and another break in values be witnessed, the situation now has the appearance of steadiness and firmvess, « a * The flitting season is at hand and the annual with - drawal of speculative talent and energy due to be- in the middie of June, will have a tendency to eave the market dull and narrow, and freer to feel the influences of legitimate conditions. As prices are now down toashipping basis ana the foreixn markets are steady, it must be admitted that the in- centive to put wheat down is not strong. The sur- plus to carry over into the next crop is small, and with only about 60.000, 000 bu to spare from the next crop there is no need to sacrifice the remnant of the crop et remaining. Stocks at the seaboara are very low and sales of wheat at Western lake ports sre almost wholly for prompt through shipment. The old wheat in the West is generally of a fine quglity, and it is likely to command a round premium over new for a good while. The new wheat that has started to move along the southern edge of the winter belt, | general thing is not of a snippers. Thus far to while of fair quality, as a to enthuse millers and wheat that South has showers,.’’ to order, however, and if 1 N rain will come forward in better ordér, — A section in Southern Illinois and 3 In- 10 **between does not turn wet the the harvest returns from Southwest are not encouraging. reports are not general, and there is as yet nothing in the news to warrant any hope that the damage to the winter wheat crop has been over-estimated. It is generally the case, how- ever, that a short crop is under § esti- mated, and a small allowance on that score may be made with safety. It is also true that a brilliant prospect is usually discounted with too great liberality,and it may be set down as quite probable that the spring wheat crop estimate of 170,000,000 bu will not be more thar realized. Indeed, the chapter of accidents is all against the fulfillment of the full measure of promise. The wheat plant throughout the great States of Minnesota, North and Sonth Dakota and Iowa is very rauk, and complaints of rust are already coming in. Possibly these complaints are prema- ture, but it is a fact that a continuation of the fiequent showers followed by extreme heat, which is the feature of the weather tnroughout that territory, will be fraught with serious danger to the crup. Dry weather is as badly needed at this writing as wet weather was a few weeks ago. 7 * — Thespring wheat crop is entering upon the most critical stage of its development. without harm, the greatest yield in the history of the Northwest will be the result. Serious damage to the crop would be almost a national calamity, and it would certainly be a terrible biow to all that vast extent of country whose people are in need of bountifulcrops for the, next two or three years to iift them out of the slough of financial despond. Mans and > + Corn was “only moderately active during the past week and the feeling was generaliy easy. Prices at Chicago were rather narrow, the market fluctuating within a ranxe of gehe. The decline was very moderate compared with the shrinkagein wheat and oats, especially the latter. The easier feeling in the market was partly attributable to the fine grow- ing weather, improving crop prospects and larse stocks. The visible supply at last report showed stocks nearly 5,800,000 bu larger than at the same time last year, with Chicago showing the largest in- crease. The activity and firmness witnessed in this market on hursday was due mainly to the heavy buying by Hutchinson, bis purchases on that day ag- regating more than 2.000.000 bu, but apart rom this support the market was heavy and in- clined to sag. Local receipts for the week wil! show adecrease of about 800 cars compared with last week. * ° * Receipts of live hogs have exceeded expectations and tbe vaines of both hogs and product have de- reciated to some extent: certain lines of meats lave been excepted from the general rule For instance, hams have been — 28 out in quantities in excess of production, and al- | though stocks of sides are accumulating rapidly at this point, prices do nut seem to yield materially. fit gets through | : 1. — | investing classes. | @3.65 mixed, market | b 1 The weather this week has been made | Excepting | South | but these | = — ~ 4 * moderate lation in provi- weather 1 next week There was no i features to e market. loing in the new crop futures and prices for these deliveries tending d was again heavy and sold le @ stocks, the free in etting stor or ng influences.

Wall Street. Fy Telerrer? tothe POST-DISPATcr. NEW York. June 28.—As usual at this particular time of the year, Wallstreet is chiefly concerned in the semi-annual interest and dividend disburse- ments.

A CALL ON MRS. HAYNE. The reporter called at the residence of Mrs. Roger Hayne, who was the originator of the nen and is the President of the Board of Managers. Mrs. Hayne is Irish by birth and a member of the Church of England. At her pretty home on Mississippi avenue Were two active ladies also engaged in the Mrs. Roger Hayne. ood work; one of them ministering tenderly io a wee little babe almost a year old who had been recently brought by Mrs. Hayne to ber own home to be vursed back to life. The Jittie thing from negieot when very young was totally blind when brought to them, but an operation had been performed upon its eyes y the attending physician and it has some- bom gecovered ite sight. Upom being told thatthe reporter had been sent by dhe SUNDAY For. DISPATCH to find out something about this charity, Mrs. Hayne answered quickly: It is the Lord who has sent you! Only yesterday morning I was saying to our doctor that we must have more room, and he asked me how I was going to get 1? 1 told him the people of st. Louls had never heard of this work yet; when they did we would have plenty of room. ‘But how are the people going to hearof it?’ he asked. lanewered, af don’t know that, Lut they will hear of it; and see you have come this morning, and I pray that your coming may be blest to us. We are now just praying for, and looklug for, the op- portunity to enlarge our work. Our lines are altogether too narrow for it. Iwant tosee a great big building, with large grounds, some where near the park, filled with littie children rescued frem sin and poverty. Here is a picture of one of the babies, a beau- tiful little thing which we rescued from the Poor-house. It was a foriorn littie creature, in the most deplorable condition that you can imagine. Now you see what it ie. It has been adopted by a wealthy lady, and has as beau- tiful a home as vou would wish to look at. Is not the rescue of that little innocent worth a whole year’s work?“ In explaining how she came to open the home Mre. Hayne told ber own story. She said that some years agoshe wassick, given over to death. Oneday, as she lay on her sick-bed, she remembered the promise of Scripture that God watched overall his chil- dren. She prayed to be made well, and she gaid that she rose from her bed a well woman. Her physicien, she deciared, would confirm the story. She bad promised on her sick-bed to devote ber lifeto the suffering, and this home is the result of this promise. **T lala the matter before a few other Chris- tian friends, and more tuau a year ago we began to pray for a home in this city for awed saints and foundlings. We neverapproached any one to ask fora dollar; we only prayed, but friends hearing of it began to send In small subscriptions, and afew of ug pledged enough monthly to pay a portion of the rentof a house forthe purpose. By April, 1889, the subscriptions amounted to $140. This sum, I believed, would only be increased by being dispensed like the loaves in the bands of the disciz,les. On Wednesday, the 24th of April, 1880; I spoke at my Bible reading to the ladſes present to re urgent in prayer. I remarked that 1 felt that $140 would be enough for an sged ople s home and areformatory. My crude dea offinance amused our little gathering a greatdeal. But it was in my heart, and that evening in praying over the matter the full Assurance of faith was given me that the Lord’s biessing was with us, and He would provide. Mre. Hayne told how, in a dream that night, She was shown the house she would require. She related the dream «at breakfast next morning, and in the description her husband recognized the old Russell mansion at the north west corner of Ninth street and Russell avenue. She continued: I drove there and found my old home very dilapidated — shutters o and windows broken, scarcely a tree ieft—yetas I stood in the wide old hall I could not be mistaken in ite identity with the house of my dream. We rented the house and the next day. wholly unexpected by us, a gift of $300 came to us from the South. ‘*] suppose you are reguiariy organised by this time?’’ „Oh, yes. Here is our list of managers as it stands at present—a few bave dropped out of the original board: Mrs. Roger Hayne, Pres- ident: Mre.Geo.Moreton of Webster, Secretary, V. C.

We needed $200, and my friend and I here.’’ polniing tothe Treasurer, who meet every morning for prayer and to talk over the Home interests, oraved for this $200. Soon after the postman came, and before opening the letter the friend who brought it up to me asked jestingly, ‘in what installments I would take the money.’ | Not less than $100," I answered promptly. The letter was opened andthere was acheck for $150 from a well-known lady on the South Side; the balance came in before night. Upon one occasion whon there was only 9 cents in the treasury and we were bound to have S50, we made itasubject of prayer, and that day my friend met some one on the street who said, ‘I’ve been wanting to send alittie some- thing to your babies’and handed her $10. Inthe noon mallcameacheck from some one for 25, and in the afternoon acheckfor $10. At the supper table ber husband said to ber: There is something I’ve got for the babies,’ When we met together we had the $50, no more or less. _I tell you all! of these things because! want faith to be strengthened in all of God’s people, and I want them to recognize faith as a definite thing, which accomplishes something.’’ Do you always get just what you pray for or the means to purchase what you need? **We wet what we pray for. We needed a large, good range, and after meeting as usual for prayer and waking this one thing the sub- ject of it, we went about our usual daily avo- cations, and while down-town our treasurer meta friend who said to her: ‘I’ve been wanting to help you with your babies for sometime, but somehow never got around to it. Now, I have an elegant new range, which I ud too large for our purpose, and have to get a smaller one. If this willbeof any service to you I willsend it down to the Home.’ I need not say how giadly it was accepted. We wanted afresh milch cow very much, but somehow had not the money to purchase it, so we met together aud prayed for one, and the very next day one was driven into the yard of the Home. A friend who knew nothing of this special need got up a subscription in the mee of the Missour! Pacific Railroad, and thinking a cow would be the very thing for the bables, purchased one aud sent it out. Whenever the children become seriously ill they have been usually taken out by Mrs. Hayne, orsome other member of the board, to their own homes, where they can be sur- rounded by every comfort and specially cared for. If possible, their mothers are brought to be with them to the end. The asyium needs more room—enlarged quarters for their work. The old people who have raised their own and their children’s babies, are annoyed by them. Anda they have not the room to accommodate as they wish the ‘emergency cases’—per- sons who come there and are taken in simply because they are in want and distress. They should in reality have two establishments, one for adults, the other for children. One of the latest beneficiaries of the old ladies’ department ofthe home is a woman, aged 90, they think, for with the weakness peculiar to ber sex she refuses to tell her age. She was born and raised in Virginia, and came evidently from a highly respectable family. She isthe sister of one ot the mayors of St. Louls long since dead. She was inthe Poor-house for six years prior to her coming to this home, in which she is now happy and comfortable. Some gentiemen, old friends no doubt of her vrother, hearing thatehe was at the home, sent her a handsome invalid chair, in which she can roll herseif about, and a purse of money. The Historical Society hearing of the case sent to the ladies of the board $25. A VIBIT TO THE HOME. After leaving these ladies who are 80 en- thused and earnest in their work, I went to the institution, which may be reached by the white car line at Fourth and Pine, or the green care at Sixth and Market street, both of them running by the home. Itisone of the old time houses, built when the Southern people valued comfort wore thanetyle. The manson is atwo-story brick, with an ell, containing altogetber fourteen rooms. It occupled the highest point of land in the neighborhood and enjoyed extensive n whore trees intervened,in every direction. But the city had encroached on the Russell domain, ite broad acres were divided into town lots, the graceful lawn that sloped gently to the road was graded down and built upon, leaving the mansion alone on its height, too valuable to be pulled down—too crowded to suit the modern tastes ofthe heirs ofthe originalowner. They left it and it was rented to a number of small tenants. In this condition Mrs. Hayne found it, and, bargained for its possession at the earil- est possible day. In duetime the ladies got the place and thoroughly renovated the interior of the mansion, mak- ing it perfectly pure and comfortable. The entrance to the home is on Russell avenue anda lone flightof steep wooden steps lead up to the yard. The grounds do not look in- viting. ne naturaily expects prass and flowers in such a locality, but these were pearly all destroyed by the attending pbhysi- cian, Who in hia extreme desire to remove every vestige of malaria, had covered the surface with lime. The visitor was received atthe door bya tidy old lady, and passing along the hall entered a large room on the right, once a fashionable parior, now a pureery for foundling infants. Babies seemed to be everywhere. And such wee mites of babies, too! Three were lying on one little couch covered with a mosquito bar, sleeping soundly. Ning others were distributed around in the room cradles, buby ocarriages and other convenient resting places. The bedding and clothing of the littie ones was all spotiessiy white and pure. But the babies are so small, hardly as . as infants generally are at half their age, and so old and elfin likein features. It is pitiful to see them, and lovely to see how tenderly they are cared for by their nurses. Some of them die, but some are nursed back to health and strength, and these are elther claimed and taken by their moth- ers or are adopted of strangers. Ae a further protection to the children, to in- sure the purity of the air they breathe, the two rooms ou the ground floor on opposite sides of the ball are used for them alternately. The old ladies no in the bome are ten in number, allrespectable and are remarkably considerate and courteous in their bearing to- ward one another. Their dresses are tidy aod their rooms cowfortably furnished. A home- like, happy air pervades the entire house. The dining table, covered with its clean, white table linen, showed the remains of a comfort- able, abundantdianer. In short, there is not the slightest air of pauperism about the net tution. Aste comfort, tidiness and respecta- bility it compares favorably with any other similiar inetitution in the city. And yet it has no endowment, no ned income. The treasury of the institution bas never been quite empty, though sometimes the amount in it has been very emali.

The Philadeiphia Times prints a cat story which sounds almost incredible, out which may de true notwithstanding. A good appe- tite is asharpeuer of the wits. The girls employed by the Ansonia Brass Co. have a pet cat, which they feed from their dinner-pails. For some time they noticed that it went off every day after eating, and presentiv returned with an English sparrow, as if for dessert. Naturally the girls began to wonder how itcould catch the birds so regu- lariy, and the cat was watched. One of the girls bad given it a piece of bread. Thies the cat took in its mouth and carried out into the yard, where it broke it into pieces, and placed it On the concrete walk. Then pussy hid bebind some boxes, and pretty soon a flock of sparrows alighted to pick up the crumbs, whereupon the cat made a 6pring and picked up a bird. Rocky Meustain Resorts.

At Cambridge, as is well-known, more at- tention is paid to mathematics than to any other branch. The ‘‘senior wrangler is the man who passes the mathematical examina- tions with the highest credits, always pro- vided he attain the number of points neces- sary to bring that honor to bim. Thie year there were a large number of competitors and According to the constitution of the university no woman be a **senior wrangler, and in consequence, Miss Fawcett did not get the title. But the newpapers and the educational public generally have given her the degree above senior wrangler. The man who was peciared ‘‘senior wrangler’’ this year is second. Miss Fawcett ranked him in the examinations. It was a giorious triumph, and the friends of higher education for women are making the most of it everywhere. Miss Philippa Garrett Fawceti—Froma Very Late Photograph. Miss Fawcett was born at Cambridge in the little house in Brookside which her father (then Professor of Pulitical Economy) contin- ued to occupy during the intervals of his par- liamentary duties until theday of his death. As Miss Fawcett was brought up in a different school of ideas than the traditional one which regards a iady’s age asa sacred thing of mystery, it may be said atonce that she is 22. She went to school at the High School at Chapman, but also owed mucn to the teaching of Miss J. McLeod Smith of Cambridge. After a course at University College Miss Fawoett went up to Newnbam three years ago with ascholarship. Alter one term under that veteran among mathematical teachers, Dr. Routh, and some instruction from Mr. Atkinson of Trinity Hall, she bas been coached by Mr. E. W. Hobson (Fellow of Christ's Senior Wrangler, 1878). Miss Fawcett has not, therefore, enjoyed the assistance ot the gentieman whois now in succession „ Bouth, the recognized turner-out high wranalcrs—Mr. R. Webb of St. John’s. It was genersily said at the time when the quest on arose that Mr Webb had no sort of prejudice against teaching lady math- ematicians, and would gladly have inc:uded Mise Fawcett among the budding wranslers who occupy his day ina constant succession of large relays; but that heapprehended some embarrassment from the presence of a lady in the atmosphere of freely-expressed crit- icism which is a well recognized part of his educational method. It may be of interest to recall that the highest lady wrangler up to date was Miss Scott,now a professor in one of the American universities, who was eighth wrangler in 1880. In classics it will be remembered, Miss Ramsay, now Mistress of Trinity, took three years ago the one piace which it is impossible to beat. Professor Fawcett was himgeif a high wran- gier, and was at one time expected be senior, but as related in well-known life of him, Lesile he became so excited during the contest that he lost an entire night’s rest and so fell behind. His daughter, by the ac- counts of ber friends, took the struggie in a much calmerand more business-like spirit, She was pressed to tuke a brief holiday away from Cambridge on theeve of the examina- tion, but declined on the ground that she preferred going in for it in the swing of one’s ordinary work. About the same per- lod at that time when the approach ot the fateful day of commence- ment is generally supposed to render life not very distinctly worth living, Miss Fawcett was asked by a sympa- thizing friend, ‘‘Whetber she did not wish it was allover?’’ No, was the uncompro- misingly cheerful reply; 1 don’t want to have three weeke taken outof my life!“ In fact, in the regularity and self-control which have governed her work throughout Miss Fawcett has offered a complete contrast to the conventional picture of the lady student Mr. Grant Allen and others have loved to de- pict asa hysterical, overwrought and ner- vous being, who, afteratew years of morbid application, prepares to sink intoan early grave. It is well known that Mrs. Fawcett, like her late busband, bas always been in the van of the movement giving educational as wel! as other opportunities to women. It is, there- fore, in the fitness of things that the daughter of two such parents should achieve high hon- ors at the University. Miss Fawcett occupies the unique position of baving beaten the senior wrangler. When women were admitted to the University the privilege of competin for the senior wrang- lership was not included, as told above, pre- sumably because no one imagined it possibile that a weak woman would ever attain to such a degree of excelience in mathematics as to beat the best male mathematicians in the land. At Oxford claseics are taught and studied more thoroughly than In any otber British university To be a ‘‘tirst’’ man at Oxford is to havea record asa linguist, which all students and scholars acknowledge. At Cambridge, on the other hand, while classics are not wover- looked, the greataim in view is always pro- ficiency in mathematics. A Cambridge man is always looked up to as an authority on all points of intricate calculation. Bo the heroine of Newnham is entitled to- day to the distinction of being among the very best mathematicians of England. She ig an unassuming pleasant little woman. In her case ability was certainly inherited, for both Mr. and Mrs Fawcett stood bead and shoulders above their fellows in learning. Mrs. Faw. cett, since her busband’s death, has retired to a great extent into private life, but, a few years ako, she had a a reputation as a writer on political economy second only to that of ber remarkable husband.

The Chicago Herald recently attempted to enlighten an inquirer, and stated, as an unstudied interpretation of the line, that ‘‘Comin’ Thro’ the Rye referred to passing through a field of grain. 80 many of the coteh readers of the Herald wrote to the paper informing it that its interpretation was incorrect, that a few days afterward it acknowledged that it had made a mistake and accepting as true the in- formation received from the Scotch readers, the Herald stated that ‘‘Comin’ Thro’ the Rye“ referred to the ford of a small stream ealled Rye, near Ayr, in Scotland. This is an old explanation, which seems to be generally believed to be correct, but the anthority for it is unknown. As the story goes, the Rye is a small shallow stream, having neither bridge nor ferry, which people forded in going toand from market, custom allowing sled to steala kiss from a lass of his acquaintance whom he happened to meet in midstream; and as proot of the trathfulness of this interpretation, ref- erence is made to the first verse, which speaks of the lass wetting her clothes in the stream: Jennie is a wat, fine bodie; Jennie’s seldom dry; She drag’ it a’ her petticoatie Comin’ thro’ the Rye. The Herald erred in its second attempt to explain the ballad more than in its first state- ment. The conclusion was reached many years ago by the most thorough students of Burns and those who are recognized as the highest authority upon bis work, that the rye referred to wasreaily a field of grain. The title of the song was an Old one, to which the words were only adapted by Burns and were first printed on a broad sheet. If they had referred to a river or stream they would have been ‘‘o’er the Rye,’’ and not ‘‘Thro’ the Rye. It is unreasonable to presume that a sensible woman in crossing a brook or stream of water of any kind would or could ‘‘dragie her petticoats,’’ as described in the song but In passing through a field of rye could not help doing it. Long ago it was very common in Scotland to have smali beaten foot paths through the fields, leading to wells or neighbors’ houses, and when pe- destrians met it would be difficult to pass without jostling orelse going aside into the growing — 12 Doubt as to the true meaning of the word is setatrest by the topographv.

P. H.

Without a doubt, the gallant detach ments of naval officers and men, on these arduous and unhealthy stations have done their duty only too well, as many grief- strloken families of deceased naval officers and men in Great Britain can testify. The Davy Jones'“ Station, as the West African Coast is called, consists of that portion of the coast lying between Bathurst, on the River Gambia, and St. Paul de Loanda,on the South- west coast, including most of the large rivers ofthe Bights of Benin and Biafra empty- ing into the Gulf of Guinea. The action of the British Government in en- deavoring to suppress the slave trade was, and is, no doubt, a very laudable one and has received the plaudits of most civilized na- tions; but most civilized nations are unaware that the British Government in that expressive word ‘‘wink’’ at the actions of large commercial institutions and com- panies, which are steered by heads wearing coronets, and even higher influences than those—when these favored proteges dabbie in human flesh for Individual profit It is not generally known thatthe British Goverment would lend itself to, or compound such an action as above inferred, but that Goverment or its officials as well as the Turkish and Rus sian Governments, are not Invincible against *‘*backscheesh,’’ and thus it is! The high heads of the large West Africa companies tamper with the high officials at the Admir- alty office, and in consequence orders are issued tothe shipson the African station to ‘favoild such and such’’ station, or pro- ceed’’ tosuch a station and the result le a man-of-war is scarcely ever seen, where, asa matter of fact, they are most urgently needed, that is provided they were needed to abolish slavery. So slavery is strict- ly looked in'o where negroes own negroes, as is often the case, and many a bitter encounter occurs between the British and the native owners, but where the influential English companies own thousands the thing is **winked’’ at vigorously with both eyes. The methods used to entrap the sem!-ciyi- lized const negro by small trading and mining companies are many, not making an absolute seizure, as do the larzer companies up the river and in the Interior, but they are delib- erately trapped into slavery and bonded fora term ofservitude from two to five years —in this way: It is from the Kroo coast, which adjoins Liberia, that majority of these slaves taken by the connivance of the pursers and captains of the trading steamers with the em- pioyers of labor. There are nativea who are known as‘‘headmen.’’ These ‘‘headmen’’ are the shrewd natives who gather from the interior towns, all the men of the best physique obtainable, sometimes as many as from fourtofive bundred. The natives are enlisted by extravagant promises which would ruin any commercial enterprise to carry out, to offer their services to persons on the steamers for work in the mines of Wassaw or other employment. The bi-weekly steamer arrives at Cape Palmas, for Instance, or Little Lahoo, two of the largest flesh stations on the‘*‘coast,’’ andthe head man brinze perhaps 200 ‘‘niggers’’ on board. These are paraded and the purser and one of the ship’s officers selects the best, i. e., the strongest ofthe batch. They are taken to the cabin and each makes a mark on an agree- ment, tbe natare of which he is totally i- norant, except he is told by the head man that which is supposed to be its contents, but is totally different, makes his mark, and is by it bound for five years to whom the agrae- ment is made out, asarule in blank, and as- sgned by the purser or trader to the em- ployer of labor further down the coast ata first-class com mission. THE CONSIDERATION received by the negro to make his bondage binding is from 3 pence to 5 pence per diem, — ual to 6 to 10 cents, with two pounds of rice ally. The writer has seen as many as 400 Kroo men lying on the main deck of a British royal mail steamer, packed like the proverbial sar- dine and all under bondage, for the trader to barter them and hand over the binding ‘‘agreement’’ in blank, with the negro’s party ays the highest ases have come the writer where or mining company who ‘‘commission’’ or price. under the notice of the negro at the expiration of a months has expressed his desire to return to ‘‘his country. Immediately the „agreement“ is flashed in his face and the contents explained in few but very cogent words, to his utter bewilderment. What is bis course? Heruns away, and the result is that he is caught in those dense jungles, which have only one path for dend miles, to or from a certain mine, to a coast port. He is taken before a District Commis- sioner, Whois Custom-house officer, Magis- trate, Judge, and a dozen other offices all thrown into one, and who invariably runs hand and glove with the company, especially if the English company exports ‘‘square- face,’’ viz.: Holland gin—upon which there igaduty of £158, equal to about $6.25 per case, little of which the British Goverament ever sees. The negro is taken before this bigu official, who, by the way, is the head of a European population of three; he examines the agreement“ held by the ‘fowner’’ and meets out punishment to the extent of from one to three months’ impris- on ment, sometimes a flogging, for breach of contract. This is occurring even to-day along the goid coast, especially at Axim, which is She town orsettiement to which the above refers. Yes, if the British Government wish to abol- ish the practice of dealing in human flesh, let one of thelr men-olf-war overhaul the un- suspected’’ royal mail steamer, the decks of whicb are covered with negroes for sale every voyage from Cape Palmas to Akassa. THE QUESTION | arises, do they want to stop it where the in- terest of 80 many noble directors in the West African companies are involved? Most em- phatically they donot. It would be an é6as matter foracruisertocomeup with a ma steamer, lying in one ofthe numerous road- steads along the coast and ask, ‘‘Whatare al these negroes here?’’ I imagine the reply woald not satisty amanwho was not 2 under orders to wink atsuch things.jBat in factthey are never overhauled. When the negroes are removed from the ship the ‘‘em- loyer’’ pays the deck passage of the n rom the port of embarkation to the port of landing. From this the steamsbip company derives the benefit, which induces them to lend themselves to the ‘‘trade,’’ the captain receiving 10 percent commission on ail such. passengers. In the event of feworno sales or leases the negroes are returned to the port ofembarkation on the homeward voyage to Liverpool and awaitthe next steamer when they are bhawked down the coast in. Thie is only one phase of the slave traffic of the west coast of Africa of to-day and there are persons who sit in their comforta seats at ehureh and ‘*‘give’’ for the gation of the Gospel among Africa.’* These persons are who carry on the abominable "Uae ot — an by far the worst © aforegoing not * ture of tlie average West African bet d on life, es jall — Oath — 145 otall a 1 „ ae it 515, is a considerable nis or ber d wil Then the megrose 87 the very 5 nu eder to be more centrally located If they do they do not report them. 4 Bishop Cromther, colored Bishop of Wee Africa, must be aware of such circumstan 9 but as be once sold the writer at L 1 2 am aware of the condition of things, but what dan I do without the sanction of e company or Government help?’ A4 the reply was nothing. a This is the country, the colony, under British ~ protectorate, which, with an unfortunate combination of State, church, commerce and circumstances to pull it down to the lowest ok all the British possessions, remains with the cloak of slavery firmly wrapt aboutitwith the actual cognizance of a Government which — Doasts that slavery cannot exist were their gunboats go or flag flles. Perhaps the actual practice of putting up negroes at auction does not exist, but even that would be preferable to stealing them and sending the poor devils to work in the mines at £4 58 lUd per annum, and after that, get back to their native homes as best they may. Onthe Niger River things are 8 as bad, perhaps worse; forthe National African Co., London (Lord Aberdare, President), a company which virtually owns the river, have armed light draft steamers and control the river for hundreds of miles. The writer was on one of those steamers within the last faw years, the 8. 8. Hucabah, when Capt. Mackintosh (the ‘‘King of the Niger’’) ordered her up the river to fire a town for some petty offence committed by @ native. The town was fired by rockets, a merciless engine of destruction, which ricochets to right angles every time it strikes an object, firing and killing everything in ite Passage. Women and children were killed needlessly, as well as men, and it was nos until the town was a complete wreck that the steamer weighed anchor and left. Now had there been any act of insubordination, why did not the company’s agent apply fora war vessel or gunboat to adjust it. Because the compeny’s agent was the British Government’s Com- missioner, an appointment obtained by the influence of the titied directors of the com- pany. No, they go to work and biowa lot ot poor innocent women and children to pieces, for probably one man’s crime. Take prison- ers and make them work on theriver steam- ers, lumping barrels of palm oll, hogsheads of shea butter and sacks of palm kernels, sacks ofsalt and tusks of ivory, with no pay as slaves; with a very slight veneer to evade the mock luws against slavery. Britons object to being slaves, but they certainly do not object to own them. neither does the British Govern- ment object to protect the owner under ‘‘cer- tain circumstances.’’ O. M. D.

Al- most the oldest settlement In the State, it stands to-day as the first mon- ument raised to the revolutionary heroes; the first tribute paid to the patriots who were the Arat to shed their blood for the cause of lib. erty. Thestory of Lexington’s christening is rather a pretty one. In 1775 a party of hunt- ere, camping upon the spot where the city pow stands, were so pleased with the sur- rounding country that they determined to Plant here their Jacob's staff, and bulld here Slog cabin in token of their possession by the laws of Virginia. The naming of this **settiement’’ (?) was a momentous matter, which was eagerly discussed around their Camp-fire. About this time, slowly the news crept out to them in the wilderness of the Oring of the first gun in the Revolutionary Venry Clay. » “Wear at Lexington. With one accord all pred flections for the bigh sounding titles of York and Lancaster were then dropped and the littie but called Lexington. That was more than a hundred years ago. Those pioneers and even their children have passed away, but this spot in the wilderness baptized by their lone camp fire has become the me- tropolis of the fairest section of the State and has long been famed as the seat of learning and eloguence—a very bot-bed of genius and nursery of statesmen and patriots. For taany years it was the commercial emporium of all that vast region lying of the Alleahenies, extending from Pittsburg on the East to Cahokia and st. Louis on the West, and from Canada onthe North to New Orleans onthe South. To the great West it was the heart, from which flowed the arteries ofcommerce and manufacture. Here in 1783 Was established the fret schoolin the West, while the country was still so wild that a rifle with which the schoolmaster might protect uimselt and the children from wild beasts and Indians was as indispensable as the birch rod, with which he preserved discipline. Only four years later Transylvania, the first insti- tution of the kind west of the Alleghenies, was established by the Legislature of Vir- ginia, with a grant of 8,000 acres of land for its maintenance. From this nucleus the educational facilities have become so great as to win for it ‘the appropriate sobriquet of the Athens of the West. This rat seminary prospered and continued under severai changes when it was merged into Kentucky University, its substantial old-fashioned building being the mucleus of five colleges, whose handsome buildings add not a littieto the architectural beauty ofthecity.

The fret public library in the West was started here, about 1780, and was incorporated asthe **‘Lexington Library. In 17% it was merged into the *‘Transylvania Library.’’ It ie still in existence, and in it may de found a rare collection of old books not to be found elsewhere. One of the most interesting features is found in the bound volumes of the first newspaper ever published in the West. It is complete from 1787, with the exeeption of all that part containing the Burr conspiracy, which bas been stolen no doubt by interested arties, as it was the only complete and faith- ul record of the proceedings. This paper, the Kentucky Gazette, was first issued in 1787, when the town consisted of a few log cabins, with canebrakes and buffaloes and Indians atthe very doors, and was only ten years old. Uptothis timethe trees had served asthe ready and faithful historians, and kept the only records that were kept from 1750to 1787, when this first newspaper began ite wission of usefulness. The copy for that number was set in type on board of a flat voat, while descending the Ohio River, and was transported by pack horses from Maysville over a buffalo trail to Lexington. The usual apology, which to the Present day heraids the advent of a new newspaper, informs its readers that iu the carriage for so long a distance, by pack horses, ‘‘a at part of the types fell into 1. The first number of the Gazette was Etued upon a sheet of demy paper, the second on a half sheet of the same size, but Owing to the difficulty in obtaining paper it was soon after reduced to a halt sheet of foolscap, and was thus published for several months.

This pioneer journal existed for nearly three quarters of a century. The bound volume of the first numbers is a curious relic of antiquity and contains much inter- estin information concerning the eopie and the customs of the days. fo the number issued December, 1787, there is a notice to the subscribers to a proposal to estabiish a society to be called the ‘‘Ken- tucky Society for the Promotion of Useful Knowledge.’’ Think of such a thing in the backwoods. The ‘‘subscribers’’ were located at Danville, Harrodsburg and other points, scattered all through the woods at distances of thirty miles or more apart. And side by side with this notice there is an account of the killing of a whole family of seven persons near Danville, by Indians. These men do not seem to have been with- out their small vanities either, for 1 find ad- vertised among such things as hatchete and owder, and filnts and knives, te., knee uckles, hair powder, buckskin for breeches, and saddle bags, etc., forthe men, and spin- ning wheels for the women; there le no men- tion of frill-trolls for them.

Hart died in Italy some few years ago, and it was the mission of Mr. Charies Kincaid, the well-known news- paper currespondent, to bring his remains from that foreign clime that they might be deposited with fitting honor in the State cemetery at Frankfort. About many of the homes of Lexington there is clustered much historic interest, and many ofthe most interesting are the least retentious. The home occupied by James urnie Beek is a very plain, old fashioned brick residence, the stories high, with a porch in front, and castellated roof, situated quite THE HOME OF HENRY CLAY. was opened in 1798, anc by 1790 such progress had been made in intellectual and polite arts, that I find in a copy of the April number, 1790, this remarkable account of ‘‘commencoment exercises,’’ which would be a credis to to-day: Friday the 10th instant, April, 1700, was av- pointed for the examination of the students of Transylvania Seminary bythe trustees. In the presence ot a very respectabie audience severai very elegant speeches were delivered by the boys andin the evening a tragedy acted, and the whole concluded with a farce. The several masterly strokes of eloquence throughout the performance obtained general applause, and were acknowledged by auniversalciap from ali present. The good order and decorum observed througbout the whole, together with the rapid progress of the schoolin literature reflects great honor on the President, Kev. James Moore.’’ That there sLould have been a successful in- stitution of learningin the wilderness at this early day is astounding, but that they should have had a taste for the drama.and that these students should have attempted trac- edies and pieces, is almost beyond belief, when one takes into consideration the actual condition of the country at that date. Kentucky seems to have been the home and the burial place of atleast three of the earl- lost inventors of steamboats, John Fitch, James Rumsey and Ecward Wert. The latter came to Lexington as early as 1755 and lived there until bis death in 1825. He was a watch- maker and gunsmith by trade and was a great inventive genius. As early as 1794 (ante-dating Fulton) he constructed a steamboat on aemali scale, and had the satis- faction of seeing it move through the water f the Elkhorn with great velocity in the pres- ence of all of the citizens of Lexington, drawn together for that purpose. The identical en- gine was preserved for over ifty years in the Transylvania Museum, and may now be seen in the museum of the Eastern Lunatic Asy- lum. In 1802 he received from the United States a patent for this engine, and on the same day patents for a nail cutter and for a nail-cutting and heading machine, the first ever invented. This be sold for $10,000, and Lexington soon exported nails close to the business center, with only a small garden attached. The home of Gen. country is a very picturesque, bling, old fashioned structure, with a great many rooms all on one floor, but situated in the middle of a large square comprising several acres. The old home ot John C. Breckenridge is a plain brick bullding, with nothing to attract atten- tion, and is occupied by strangers pow. In the center of the city, almost, is the beautiful pees xiven tolt by Benjamin Gratz, and about t ere clustered many notabie places, superb old Dudley mansion, the home of Rosa Vertner Johnson, the well- known poetesa, aud the plain old-fashioned house from which Henry Clay was married. Across the street still, facing the park, is the residence of Mrs. Morgan, mother of the famous Southern chieftain, whose memory bere is also held dear as one of the heroes of Buena Vista. It, too, is bullt of brick In the old style of fifty years ago, the front door, with arched top, set in a frame- work of small panes of glass. Near by is the home of the widow of Mr. Gratz, fashioned like Mrs. Morgan’s, in the style of forty or fifty years ago. Upon these walis hangs a famous picture, one of Jouet’s it is said. It is the portrait of Mies Rebecca Gratz of Philadelphia, alady of such marvelous beauty, it is sald, that Washington Irving, greatly impressed with it, on his visit to Sir Walter Scott de- scribed herin such glowing terms, that Scott madejof her one ofthe beroines of ‘‘Ivanhoe,’’ Rebecca, Not far away Was the home of the gallant and brave McKees, father and son, the latter an officer In the navy, Killed at Corea leading a charge against the fort, which was afterward named in bis honor. The former fell badly wounded atthe battle of Buena Vista, but struggied heroically until over owered by the enemy, who stabbed him to death with his bayonet while he lay wounded upon the ground, a strange similarity in fate, for his son perished by both bullet and spear in the fort at Corea. The most interesting point of course to all strangers is Ashiand, the home of Henry Clay. As early as 1797 he settled in Lexington, Wm.

There are records here of many other interesting and useful inventions of an early date. The most ingenious and famous of the inventors of this place, however, was Thomas Harris Bariow, who belonged to a later period. In 1826 be built a steain locomoti.e and oar attached for two persons, with the power to ascend an elevation of eighty feet to the mile. It was placed on exhibition in 1827, and upon an oval track in a machine shop the first Western train was set in motion. Soon after he sold one of these engines for exhibition around the country. In 1835 he built another engine for the railroad trom Lexington to Frankfort, which was completed and running in 1838&—the second inthe United States. Mr. bariow also made in 185 arude plauitorium, and by 1849, after untiring patience and in- dustry, completed and sold a fine planitorium to Girard College, Philadeiphia. Two others were sold to the United States Government for West Point and the Naval Academy. Early in the present century the second railroad xnown to history was built in these wilds, running from Lexington to Frankfort, and operated with borses, very much as are the street cars of the present day. Later on, in 1838, Barlow’s engine took the place of horses. Railroading was now regarded as successful, but dangereusto life, because of the rapidity of motion. It is surprising to find here records of some famous artists, whose works even at the pres- ent day are considered second to those of no other American artist. First among tham | was Mat Jouet, born in 1788. He was destined for the law, but not being able to stifie bis love for art, gave up his books, and painted for many years withouta master. When one reflects that Kentucky was then a wilderness, itseems impossible almost that this man, without ever having seen the beauties of the Italian school or the reaiism of the Dutch, shovid have produced instinctively portraits which for richness of coloring, mellowness of tone and strong character portrayal, stand to-day equal to the works of the best Euro- pean artists. It is rather singular that in addition to these two treat painters another son of the wilder- ness, Joel G. Hart, one of the greatest sculp- tors in the world, should have called Lexing- ton hishome. He was not born here, but in Clark County, in 1810, but moved here when a outh. It is said thatin astone-mason’s yard e made his first essay at engraving letters on atombstone. This was his fret advance to- ward the goal which be reached, when he was declared by Hiram Powers the greatest sculptorin the world. Little by little as he worked inthe marole- ＋ light came to bim in bis new profession. e now determined to study anatomy and did so inthe Transylvania Medical School. Ten years later he was making the busts of such men as Clay, Jackson and Crittenden. A ew years aiter he went to Italy to putin marble a statue of Henry Clay, which he studied from lite. Inthis be metwith many disappointments and delays, but was finally successful, and the statue now adorns the Capitol grounds at Richmond. Meanwhile his mind and hands were occupied with other mee oy The teeming imagery of his brain brought life and beauty from the chisel andthe cold marble. About this tim he gave to the world bis ‘‘Angelina’’ and 1 Pensarosa.’’ In 1866, however, he produced the one piece which made him famous, Woman Triumpbant.’’ Itis a group of two Ogures only—a perfect woman anda charm- to Louisville, Cincinnati and Pittsburg, now / Ky., with the purpose of practicing law.

Theold house of course is gone, but it was replaced by his son, James B.

PITTMAN. WOMEN IN TROUSERS. Females of Many Lands Wear Male Ap- parel, It is curious that while in the East the fair sex wear trousers and men long robes, in the West the custom is reversed—men wear the loose trousers or close-fitting pantaloons and women the loose robes. Necessity sometimes compels women to adopt almost completely the same garb as the men. Kalmuck women, save in the ornate and complex arrangement of the hair, when riding or engaged in field work, dress exactiy like the men. The Jewish women of Tunis and Algiers wear a dress whico isa kind of 8 but dispense entirely With the long skirts. The Alpine women, accustomed and com- elled to climb ana descend, often with heavy urdens, wear babitualiy loose trousers, for skirts would be a constant peril. In the mountain parts of South America, women, in riding, adopt male attire, as they now do generally among us, though the fearfully dangerous skirt Is retained. The English women who work ia the mines are similarly attired. In India there are tribes like the Zulus whose attire is ofthis description. In more civilized lands and circles there are cases where no vulgar desire for notoriety has bes, the Rosa Bonheur had to 80 make studies for wander afield un- accom panied. her ehoice of the French laborer’s smock, cap and trousers.

It mav be chat she is aware she never looked so charming as years ago in the partofan Italian boy—a vagrant musician. The simplicity of masculine clothes—made in black velvet, aod, on the whole, effeminate— must bea pleasant change after the clingirg draperies with the weighty trains and box plaitings, which make her rustie like a snake in fallen autumn leaves when she advances on the stage. Sometimes it is not only convenient but the part of decency for giris todon the garb of thelr brothers.

The rough adventures through which they passed and the hardships to which they exposed themseives,renewed their youth and kept them lovely far beyond middle age. They toiled in a felucca as sailors from Naples to Marseilles, faced storms, hung out allsailto escape from Algertau pirates and were so browned by sun, sea-air and work thatthe officers of the Roman Inquisition, who boarded the craft to capture them, did not know them, although they took them down to the hold. The Duchess Mazarin rode Plymouth to London dressed a man. She and Neil Gwynn, as Florimel in The Maiden Quenn,.’’ brought men’s clothes into fashion at the Court of White- hall. But in the seventeenth century mascu- line clothing was as sumptuous and ornate as that of the fine ladies. George Sand dressed in paletot and trousers for cheapnesa’ sake.

From the Detroit Free Press. Among the many good things in the last issue of the Arizona Kicker we extract the following: OuR GaIN.—Monday afternoon an Italian witha Gancing bear struck the town, and half an bour later Col. Siderlal Thompson, Assistant Register of Deeds, awoke from a snooze he had been enjoying in an arm- chair in the Mighty West billiard pariors. When the colonel saw the bear dance be made up his boozy mind to have a waltz with him. His friends called him off, but he was pig-beaded and obstinate and refused to stay off. ue suddenly jumped in on the bear with a yell and a whoop, and being new to our ways the beast prubably supposed himself at- tacked. At any rate he set to work with teeth and claws, and so used the Colonel up in about three minutes that he died that night. The general verdict of the public is that hisloss is our gain. He had no enter- prise as acitizen, and as a man some of us would have had to plant him withina few weeks anvhow. SETTLED aT LasT.—As will be noticed else- where inthe reguiar court proceedings, the legul trouble between the editor of the Kicker and Prof. McCall! has at last been settled and an amicable understanding arrived at. The professor came bere about two years ago, and being in hard luck borrowed our only Sunday shirt and 50 cents in cash, and later on re- fused to either return the same or recognize our claim. and he sued us for $50,000. We proved hima bigamist aod he fired two shots at us in front of the Post-office. We advised lynching, and he was laid up fora month ia the attempt to horsewhip us. The professor less than five suits against us, and on several different occasions planned our assassina- tion. Day before yesterday, whilethe professor was laying for us with a shotgun at the Post- office, he was run over in astampede of mules. We werethe firsttoreach him and render aid. He was carried to the Kicker office in an unconscious condition and it was haif an hour before he came to. Mutual friends seized upon the occasion to settle the trouble and their efforts were successful. We now desireto announce in italies that the professor isan honest, worthy gentieman, possessed of a fine voice and well qualified to teach the divine art of music. On the otber hand, he subscribes for the Kicker, paying in advance, Of course, and advertises to the ex- | tent of $24 per year. APPLY TO THE CORONER.—Just as our out- side pages were going to press Judge Kalght called atthe Kicker office and invited us to ride out to Lone Tree with him in his horse and bugey, and half an hour later we were there. The boys had preceded us, and we found them in a circie around ‘‘Dr. B. B. Belinger, late of the Royal College of Medi- cine, of London—the only discoverer of a sure cure for consumption. he with us abouta month, claiming to cure al- most everything on earth, but after his reme- dies had knocked over haifadozen citizens the boys concluded that it was time for him | todropout.

There | was a connection between the doctor’s neck and a stout limb, and he was making «a speech. The doctor recognized us at once and besought us to explain tothe crowd that he was in a hurry to leave the country. He couldn’tfiy, but he would do the next best thing. Although he bad not advertised with us, and he had given ali his job work to our contemporary, we could not refuse bis request. Asa personal favor to us the boys, aiter letting him hang long enough to insure a good case of sore throat, cut him down, gave him a nipß of whisky and advised him to go East. He went. The last we saw of him he was waklng such time as no jack-rabbit in this country cab ever hope toequal. Any one having any legal claim on 105 bottles of consumption cure, together with a machine for making pille, two packs of cards and office furniture valued at $5.25, will please apply to our worthy coroner. While Dr. Belinger still lives to the world at large, there is no doubt that he is dead to this community.’’ A Questien of Meat, From the Boston Post.

I., June 26, HE proposition to jaclude Brooklyn, Long Island City and Staten Island in the City of New York, thus constituting ® town of 2,500,000 peo- ple, will no doubt materialize at some time in the future, but there will be strong opposition to it, and especially by the suburban towns referred to. 4 & resident and taxpayer of Staten Island I Know that I but voice the sentiments of many of my neighbors whenI say that we do not wish to have New York annexed to us. In the first piace, most of us removed to Staten Island in order to get out of the city of New York and its temptations, and we do not desire to have the noisy town follow us to our lair with its civilization and its sewer gas. For instance, Iam now ableto keep 4 COW, and every night with a wild onion scented breath she winds slowly o’er the lea.

Then gradually she would lay aside allreserve and come up ata late hour, getting into the corral with great difficulty, accompanied by a ac. a This cow Il am especially proud of, andl may truthfully say that she has led a compar- atively blameless life thus far.

What she would do if we were to become an eighty- seventh ward of New York City I do not know. Many of my triends also keep goats. M. Tucson Kelly, a neighbor of mine on Airyetty street, says that he has a new milch goat that was born on Staten Island, and bas never yet seen an elevated train. He says he would hate to see the noise and cussedness of a great city creep in and usurp the place for our bon homme and dirt roads. ‘*Possibly,’’ adds M. Tucson Kelly, of Alry- etty street, Tomcatsville, I may do the bet ter classes of New York City a great injustice, for folxs tells me that it is not the best classes that comes over here on Sunday to play Dall and escort a large oxydized jag home at night; but from what we see we form an idea thatour relations with South and East New York might become strained at most any time if we should become Ward 87 of the city.’’ Mr. Robert Craig of Rossville, a dealer in fresh laid cucumDer pickles and embryo hens, says that he hopes we shall not be compelied to restore the depleted treasury of New York City and * pay for elevated sidewalks on Manhattan Island while we have got over eighty square miles of green country, fresh from the hand of the Creator, where the so- Aim Now Able to Keep a Cow.

That le one good thing now about Staten Island. She is almost free from the en- croachments of that bane of civilization—the police. Three policemen on week days and four on Sundays surround Richmond. County with the clutch of a giant, and any outbreak or disorder outside of the hospitals is a thing almost unknown, or if finally known of, it is so late that the matter has already blown over. I claim that corruption ought to come on a town gradually. It ought not to be let loose like a Conemaugh flood, without notice. Staten Island hasa fair start in this line, and as she grows her political corruption will no doubt keep pace with her growth, but itis tough to turn loose the veteran cussedness of an old and famous metropolis on the fresh and dew-laden districts, where the gentle jay ' will at once fall a victim to the lust and rapacity of the versatile and accomplished metropolitan felon. What would a horny-handed agriculturist like George William Curtis or Erastus Wiman or Willie Winter do if, while he happened to be bugging his potatoes or salivating his squash vines, the legislature should suddenly turn loose upon the Island a horde of sccom- plished he-sirens with staccato voices to woo the pure patriot from his disagreeable and | poorly paved patb of rectitude?

I have also been Able to procure for you a few photographs of this plastic history of the erstwhile capital of the ‘individual figures as they appear in world. The history of the modern panorama and diorama art of painting, which is scarcely eighteen years old, can already be divided into two distinct periods. The Frenchman, Pilippiteaux, was the first to raise this branch of painting to the stand- ard ot art, and for a time the representations of great decisive batties formed the exclusive motive for the panorama, for which appro- priate buildings were erected both in Europe and America. National and international companies were formed, whose object it was around a to send these pictures cruise of the world, and cess with which these enterprises pet tempted others to imitation. For France, Germany and Austria the great Franco-Ger- man war of 1870-71 furnished numerous mot its, the suc- and they were sure to command for a long time a strong national interest, moreover, as the panorama does much greater justice to this kind of palnting than the most extensive easel picture could possibly do. While the latter can reproduce oniy one episode, Or at best the decisive moment or the most important paragraph in the course of a famous battle, it lies within the possibility ofthe panoramato unite upon one colossal surface separate aud distinct moments, pict- uring according to the actual developments of events the meeting of two mighty armies at the very instant when the scales turn irre trievably in favor of the one. Then came the Turko-Prussian war, which offered to foreign- ers another interesting subject, whjle for us Americans the great war of the rebellion was the favorite theme we gazed upon on canvas. When these were exhausted, motifs were chosen from famous battles at the beginning of the present century ana with that avallable subjects were exhausted in this line. Besides the art of panorama painting had reached so high adegree of perfection in reproducing upon canvass real and actual evente, the blending of the plastic foreground with the painted surface was so deiusive, that the in- terest of the public began to wave, The high standard that bad been reached, could not be surpassed and the various Panorama com- panies were Yoreed to hit upon something new ein order to tempt the curiosity of the public afresh and keep the interest alive. The arch® gical trend of our times invited at- tention the most important points of civill- Zation in \ancient history.

But the most brilliant riod of Romanism, the most prominent an- ue seat of civilization,which unlike any oth- er is connected by a thousand threads with our Mtoe, our art and oar customs, was above ai! others deemed worthy to celebrate in one ‘gmple, copious, collective picture the renals- sance of its former splendor, and this superb work has been raised to the highest standard of iliusion which the abundant means of our | medern art of reproduction bas made pos- sibie. This difficult but grateful task was under- taken three years ago by the architect Bueh!- mann, Professor of the Academy of Technique at Munich, and Alex. Wagner, Professor of the Art Academy, and was executed in the in- terest of the panorama company of that place. The result of their artistic industry, the out- come of their archmological studies and powerful mastery of picturesque forms is at nt receivine at the hands of Berliners same warm homage, the same lively in- terest and admiration with the Panorama commanded in Munich during the first two years of its existence. The two artists divided the labors of the task in such a manner that Architect Buehl- mann treated the arch@ological and purely constructive part, while the epee execu- tion of the colossal canvass, the architecture, landscape and figures were left to the able hand of Prof. aguver. It was he who Greated the wealth of single Ogures and . — s which al the picture, he who te? nished studies from nature for the laud- _ Seape and individual portions of the arehi- 4 te, from which three of his scholars _ @%eo0uted the details on a large scaie.

The selection of the proper ‘‘point de vue“ was 1 as dificult as the choice of the bistor moment, and after elib- 'Men and thelr white togas he has reached the piat- form which divides the fliers. Here the officers of the Senate stand in waiting to greet the General who holds their fate in the hollow of hia hand. The dramatic life of this scene in all its accompanying details develops into one grand, powerful fortissimo. Immediately at his feet the spectator beholds a terrace-like ressauit surrounded by a balustrade and from it rises into space the statue of the world gov- erning Rome ina sitting posture. This statue is surrounded by trumpeters and trombone- players, who send down to the Cmsar a ring- ing welcome. There, where the terrace comes to an end, a scene takes place which illua- trates the chaugeable favor of the people. lads are busily engaged upon hurling from its pedestai the statue of Max- entius, the co-regent, who found a watery grave inthe Tiber. Upon what is to-day the **Senatoria!l Place“ is piayed the most remark- able scene in the whole panorama. The group of men who populate the long archway and greet the passing army are the Christian priests, and among a large number of trophies and a banner, upon which a representation of the battle is painted, the soidiers carry the ‘*Laburnum,’’ the fleld-badge with the mono- gram of Christ, the two Greek initiale inter- twined, which is said to have been the flag of a Christian division of the army in the battle against Maxentius, The chief moment of every triumphal march, bowever, was the thank oflering. which the victor tendered to Jupiter in his temple. It wascalled the ‘‘Souvetaurilia,’’ because it consisted of a steer, asleep and a hog. In order to keep the ‘‘ataffage’’ of the powerful scenery more uniform and to dis- tribute the figures and groups appropriately over the entire canvass, the artist took the liperty of making the Temple of Juno Moneta the scene of the thank-offering. This temple, like the castle, was situated onthe north- eastern summit ot the Capitolian mountain, and, therefore, the spectator seems to face it Imioediately as he turns fromthe Temple of the Capitelian Jupiter further eastward. In the court of the temple priests are waiting to commence the solemn ceremony. The servants of the immolators armed witb axes are bringing the animals for the offering. Aside from the groups already described, there are two more which attractthe interest ofthe spectator. As we turn to tue right from the Temple of Juno Moneta, where the im- perial Rome begins with its wealth of palaces, rising amphitheater-like into space, the eye hangs upon a groupof soldiers who do not seem to mingle with the rejoicing multitade, One of them, the captain, points with a men- acing gesture toward the victor. They are the remaining soldiers or the Imperial Guard of Maxentius, awaiting their doom. In direct contrast with this dismal group, which embodies all the horrors of war, is an- other full of life and brightness. On an estrade covered with rugs and carpets and shaded by a superb canopy, the ladies of the imperial household are assembled to witness the imposing ceremonies. In the center of the group is Augusts, Constantine’s wile, sit- ting upon a throne; the ladies of the Imperial Court surround the Empress. The scene is a peculiarly attractive one, by reason of the magpvificent display of color and light, which the brush of the artist has poured over this fragment of the panorama of ancient Rome.

Around her are many souvenirs of her dead husband, and to her kindness the SUNDAY PoOsT- DisPaTcH is in- debted for much of the material in this sketch, simply a little mosaic of the entire life career and character as wellas before unpublished anecdotes of the greatest man in Missouri. Frank P. Blair, Jr., was descended from one of the finest of American families, his father being the Hon. Francis P. Blair of Washington, after whom the third son was called. One of the Blair ancestors, Nathaniel Gist, accompanied Washington when he went to make the survey of Fort Duquesne, and various members of the family having held high political positions. When he was born his mother was visiting his uncle, Benjamin Gratz, at his home in Lexington, Ky., and it was in 1821, in that place, that Frank Blair first opened hiseyes. Much of his boyhood was passed at the old home ot his uncle in Lex- ington. He went when 8 years old to Wash- ington, where he attended school, and from there went to Soutn Carolina, where he be- came a student at one of the colleges. How- ever, he eventually attended Princeton Col- lege, where he graduated in 1841, and directly after that came to St. Louis, where he entered the practice oflaw. Upon the opening of the Mexican war he joined the army asa private and served until 1847, when he returned again to St. Louis. In 1848 he joined heartily in the free soll movement, and it was then that he made a strong speech against the extension of slavery into the Frank P. Blair, Jr. Territories. In 1852 he was elected to the Missouri Legisiature as a free soller and was re-elected in 1854. In 1856 be was elected to Congress, where he distinguished himself by his bold and active labors. He married Miss Agatha Appolline Alexander, the oldest sur- viving child of Andrew Jonathan Alexander and his wife, Mira Madison. After hie marriage he and his pretty wife wentto housekeeping on Washington ave- nue between Eleventh and Twelfth streets, where they lived for years. This house is one of the large three-story brick houses still on ite site. The life of Gen. Biair was a peculiarly bright one. He idolized his wife, and sne not only was devoted to him in love, but was one ofthe greatest admirers of his superb mental and moral qualities. A leading spirit and adviser of Missouri Republicans in 1860 and 1861 was Frank Preston Blair, Jr. Pre- vious to 1860 the element which in that year formed the Republican party was known in St. Louis as the Free Demo- cratic Party,’’ but it was determined in the winter of 1860 and 1861 that the name Republican should be adopted and that the party should identify itself with the great anti-slavery party of the North. This wae determined here in a coun- cil of local leaders, who agreed with Mr. Biair, composed principaliy of Oliver D. Fil- ley, John How, B. Gratz Brown, H. B. Branch, James O. Broadhead, Samuel T. Glover, Henry Boernstein, Charles L. Ber- nays, J. B. Gardenheir, Carl Daenzer, Ben Farrar, Barton Abie, Charles M. Elleard, James Castello, R. J. Howard, P. T. Me- Sherry, Henry T. Blow, Franklin A. Dick, Bernard Poepping, Wm. Doench, John I. Fisse, Johu O. Sitton and James Richardson. It wag also agreed that measures should be taken to perfect a State organization in Missouri. The first meeting was held in the small hall of the Mercantile Library Saturday, May 10, 1860. Indirectiy from this originated the St. Louis ‘*Wide Awakes,’’ whose headquarters were on Seventh and Chestuut streets, and from which afterwards sprang the Home Guards“ of Frank Biair’s origi- nating. On the 2ist of April, 1861, in anticipa- tion of earnest work, be sent his family out of town out of fear for their personal safety. Crowds of antagonists would pags his house, missiles would be hurled against the doors and the most coarse and insulting expressions called by men who were really not in the service of either party. On one occasion just atter the family had left occurred an la- | stance which untilnow remained unwritten, Mr. Blair's death. He was he library of his house on Washington avenue when something crashed through the window and went whizzing He was fortunately out of He looked for the missile. It was a bullet which had crashed through the glass of the window and made large sized hole inthe pane. Some enemy bad seen him from the sidewalk and en- deavor to kill him before he should be aware a bullet was coming. lis wife never knew ofthis until she saw the bullet hole in the window. One of the most displeasing duties in Gen. Biair’s career was when he was forced to relleve Gen. Harney of bis command. When the papers came he carried them for one week in his pocket, do- testing to give them to Gen. Harney, yet feel- ing ithisdutytodoso. The letter from the President ordering the relief of Harney was as follows: yet nearly cause WASHINGTON, D. C., May 18, 1861. Hon. F. P. Blair: My Dear Stk—We have a good deal of anxiety here about St. Louls. I understand an order has gone from the War Department to you to be delivered or withheld, in your discretion, relieving Gen. Harne from the command Iwas not quite satisfied with the order when it was made, though on the whole 1 thought it best to make it, but since then I nave been doubtful of its propriety, I do not write now to countermand it, but to say 1 wish you would withhold it, unless in vour judg- ment, the necessity to the contrary is very urgent. There are several reasons for this. fe better have him fora friend than an enemy. It will dissatisfy a good many who are otherwise quiet; more than all. we first relieve bim, then restore him and if we re- lieve him again the public will ask, why this vacilia- tion. Still, if in your judgment it is indispensable, letitbeso. Yours very truly, Private. A. LINCOLN. Gen. Blair put this letter securely in hig cket. He fully concurred with the spirit of r. Lincoln, He determined—until lt seemed criminal in bis eyes, to hold it longer—not to _ itto Gen. Harney. Finally, after a week ad elapsed, several things occurred, notably un arrangement between Price and Sterling which in his eyes necessitated the giving of the papers, which he did. He admired . that brings in that i Frank Blair, who, disguised 3 at it wae ‘ w u as aia wan 6 to 1 be discovered, as Scott, the Surgeon of the companies stationed at — Jackson, who knew ber very well wou! recognize ber dress and shawl as well as carriage, and come towards herto speakto ber. However nothing ofthe kind occurred. Franklin A. Diek, the brother-in-law of Blair, accom- panied by bis colored servant, drove out after Lyon and followed him through the eamp. But to dwell on war rewiniscences is not the object of this sketch... Blair was Lyon’s constant adviser, upholding and sus- taining him in everything. The bitterest en- mity prevailed between Gen. Sterling Price and Gen. Biair entirely during the war. After its close, when Gen. Price became unfortu- nately so deeply reduced in circumstonces and was staying ln New Orleans, Gen. Blair, who was in New Orleans, too, at the time, discovered the misfortunes of his former en- emy and learned of his despondency in spirits. Frank Blair immediately was all sympathy and kindness and nothing was too much for him to do for Gen. Price. A DRAMATIO SCENE AT THE PLANTERS’ HOUSE BAR. John D. Finney, in speaking of Gen. Blair, said yesterday to the SUNDAY PosT-DISPATCAaA representative: ‘‘Here are two stories of the General to whichI was a witness. Near the close of Col. Benton’s life he and Blair became somewhat estranged owing to the fact that the younger man held views far in advance of those of the old statesman, A short time after the death of Col. Benton, ason-in-law of bis named Wm. Carey Jones came to St. Louis. He was a Secessionist. He wrote a long and abusive article, denouncing Blair in violent terms. None of the papers would print it as it was olearly libellous. Jones then had it struck in circulars which he caused to be dis- tributed over the entire city. Blair said noth- ing. Jones, thinking that he had thorough! frightened him, followed up the circular wit an open boast that ‘he would shoot bim on sight.’ Blalr's friends were outspoken in their fears. Blair only laughed. One day an old friend met him on Fourth street, and in response to his invitation entered the famous saloon under the Planters’ House, atthat time kept by Jno. King. On entering Inoticed standing atone end of the counter three men. Irecognized Col, Lewis V. Bogy, afterwards Biair’s successor in the Senate, and Col. Thornton Grimsley, a noted cbaracter of those days. The other I did not now. Blair walked up to the crowd, his eyes flash- ing fire. Bogy.“ said message for me.’ „What is it, Frank?’’ returned Bogv. There is a dirty our named Win. Carey — who has publicly boasted that he would shoot me on sight. Tell the coward that he has not courage enough to shoot at a rabbit, much less at a man!! The three faces of the men with Bogy were as white as their shirts. Blair and his friend wenttothe other end of the counter, took their drinks and slowly sauntered out of the saloon. When they reached the street, bis friend said, ‘‘Surely, Frank, you don’t expect Bogy to carry such a message as that?“ It is pot necessary, Blair replied. That was Wm. Carey Jones standing with him and Grimsiey,’’ and then his joyous nature again took possession of him. A QUEER STORY OF FATHER DE SMT. Another story told by Judge Finney is one relative to Gen, Frank Blair aud Father De Smet, as well as President Lincoln. Upon the resignation of Drake of his seat in the United States Senate to sssume the place of Chief Justice of the Court of Claims, Gen. Biair, then a member of the Lower House of the Missouri Legislature, was at once called on by the Democratic party to replace him. Blair feared opposition, und there was one man whose support he wanted, but was afraid he could not get. He one day learned that Father De Smet, the great Jesuit Indian Mis- sionary was afriend of Judge Finney’s, and asked him to bave the missionary see this man. Judge Finney replied, ‘‘Youn know how these Jesuits are. They would rather play ball with the Nine Muses than interfere in politics.’’ But Judge Finney, who was an old scholar of Father De Smet, did esk him, and the Jesuit at once agreed and spoke in very warm terms of Mr. Biair. He saw the man Blair wanted and got his support. This was the only time that Father De Smet ever mixed in politics. Judge Finney afterward asked him about the matter, and Father De Smet told tre following story: In 1863, I think it was, our father pro- vincial, at my request bad granted me per- mission to visit again, after a long absence, my poor children ofthe forest, the Flathead and Blackfeet Indians. I had fully prepared for the journey when 1 discovered that the United States Government had for military reasons drawn its lines along the entire In- dian frontier, and it was therefore impossible to get through without a pass. I was in- formed thatI could not get a pass without going to Washington. I accordingly jour- neyed to the capital. But on my arrival I found that all my friends who had been mem bers of Congress at wy last visit, were either dead or inthe rebellion. I had no alterna tive, therefore, but to call on Gen. Blair, who was then representin St. Louis in the Lower House. Having never met him, lwentto his residence and introduced myself and the subject of my mis- sion, and asked his good ollices. He re- quested me to call on him the tollowing morn. ing at 10 0’clock, and in the mean time he would see what could be done. I did so, en- tered his carriage and was driven to the White House. On the route he was kind enough to say that he had heard of my labors among the Indians, and finally asked me it 1 had any money with which to reach my desti- nation. Itold him thatI could get sufficient to bring me to the border of civilization, and after that laughingly remarked that I would walk the reat of the way. <After leaving the carriage, and when just about to enter the presidential mansion, he stopped me and said: Father De Smet, I am about to introduce you to President Lincoln and to ask from him afavorfor you. Please promise me that you will express no surprise at what either he or 1 may say, butthat you will content yourself with thanking him ift he grants my request. We found the President in his room leaning upon his hand with aweary expression of countenance, asthough he were entertaining sad thoughts. His tace, however, lighted up atour coming, and after being formally in- troduced we took the chairs, and he openéd +p conversation with this remarkto Gen. Blair: „Frank, is Father De Smet trying to makea Catholic out of you, or you trying to make a Presbyterian out of him—which?’’ ‘‘Nelther, Mr. President, butlbave come here to ask a favor for him from you. **What is t?“ „„Mr. Stanton tells me, said the General, ‘‘that the Fourth Caveiry—I think it is the Fourth Cavairy—is stationed out on the North- western frontier, and that they have no chap- lain. I want you to make Father De Smet chaplain of the regiment and ive him twelve months’ furlough, at whicil time he expects to return from his mission, when he can resign, unless he wants to go into the war.’ The President immedi- ately took up his pen, wrote a tew lines, and handed the paper to Gen. Blair, saying: ‘Take that to Stanton’s.’ Before I had time to say a word Mr. Lincoln took me by the band, and in bidding me adieu remarked: ‘You will do more good out there than all my soldiers and commissioners.’ There was pay to that posi- tion (tor I belleve I ranked as major), but 1 never drew it. Of course I thanked Gen. Blair forthe handsome manner in which be had 5 n for me, but I never until now had an A of doing him a service in turn, 1 is why I want him tu the Senate.“ : HE LEFT NO LETTERS.

Mr. Wayt availed himself of an early oppor- tunity to make known his intention to take no vacation that year. He ‘‘doubted the expe- diency of midsummer absences on the part of suburban pastors.’’ While many residents of Fairhill went abrosed and to fashionable re- sortein America in July and August. a re- spectable minority was content to remain at home, and some of the vacated cottages and villas were taken by city people, to whom the breezy heights and shaded lawns were @ biessed relief from miles of scorching stone and brick.

The resolution was politic and strengthened Dis hold upon bis new charge. Not to be out- done in generosity the people redoubled their *effectionate attentions to their spiritual leader. Fruits, flowers and all manner of table dainties poured into the parsonage; car- ages came daily to offer airings to Mrs. Waytand the children, and on the fourth of July a pretty phacton and gentie horse were dent as ‘‘a gift to the mistress of the manse,’’ from a dozen prominent parishioners. ‘*Verily, my cop runneth over. Areal tear dropped upon Mr. Waryt’s shirt front as de uttered it faiteringly on the after- noon ofthe holiday.

I can re- ceive favors done to myself with a manly show of gratitude. Appreciation of my wife makes a baby of me. By this time be should be in his second childhood, then, for everybody kes mam- ma, piped a tamiliar voice from within the French window of the library. Gilancing around with a start that was not theatrical, be espied his eldest born established at her ease inalowchair. Her feet were on a stool; she wore a white gown, and Mays white Chuddar shawi covered her from the waist downward ; her hair was a mesh of goid threaa that drew to it ail the light of the dying day. May sat on a cushion in the window and linked Hester in her comparative retirement with the veranda group. Ah, little one, are you there?’’ said the fond parent playfully. ‘‘I] missed you trom the dinner table and might have guessed that you could be nowhere but here. Profound siience ensued and lasted fora minute. Hester shrank Into herself with a biush visible even in the shadowy Interior. March and May had gone through orchard and gardens to fetch her an hourago. Her father had eaten his even ing meal at the same table with her. In the circumstances there was nothing to say, a fact comprended by all except the unconscious offender. **I think Mre. Wayt will aud her horse gen tle,’’ sald Judge Glichrist, in formal civility, too palpable to his wife. With intelligent apprehension ofthe truth, too often overlooked, that confidence in the truth bearer must precede obedience to his message, she desired that her husband and son should like Mr. Wayt. To March she had confessed ber fear that some of the family were ‘‘peculiar,’’ and he might inter the in- clusion of the nominal head in the category. Further than this she would not go. With pious haste she picked the fly out of the oint- ment, and, with holy duplicity, beguiiea others Into approval of the article that bore the trade mark of The Church.“ Ah, the churcb! in every age and. despite lapses and shortcomings and stains, the cus- todian of the Ark of God—her debt to such de- vont and loyal souls as this woman’s will never be estimated until the Master shall make acknowledgment of it in the great day of reckoning. When the Nac turn ot the subject and the borsey talk that follow a granted his wife leisure to reconsider the matter, she dis- covered that there wae no cause for discom- fitare. Mr. Wayt was absent-winded, as were all students of deep things. Only, ber hus- band was guick of sightand wit, and neither March nor May had much to say, of late, of the new preacher who was doing euch excelient work in the congregation. March went reauiarly to church and sat beside bis mother through preyer and hymn and sermon, and afterward refrained trom adverse criticism. This may have been out of respect to the girl he hoped to make his wife. Tete dared fancy that the graver tender- ness of bis behavior to herself and the unusual eriods of thoughtfulness that occurred in their conversations had to do with the dave ing of spiritual life in bis soul. However much Certain of Mr. Warte mannerisms might offend her taste, there was no question of bis llity and eloguence. That these might be {be divinely appointed nete for the ingatbering into the chureh of her best be- loved was A burden that weighted every peti- ot spoken openly of his love for ince the eveuing on which he mother, but, in her opinion, there was nothing significant in this reserve, The Giichrists were delicate in their dealings with one another, never asking in- convenient questions or pushing communica- tion beyond the voluntary stage. If May divined the drift of her brothers affections she did not intimate it by word or look When the fruit of confidence was ripe it would be dropped into ber lap. She did note what Mrs. Giicbrist had not opportunity of seeing—how seldon Hetty had lelsure to receive Maron or his sister. She was getting ready the ward- robe of the twin boys who were to gv to boarding school the lst of October. Through Hester talk May bad learned incidentally that the Wayts employed neither dressmaker nor seamstress. ,; „Hetty is miraculously skiliful with ber needie,’’ was Hester’s way of putting it. „And so swift that it would drive her wild to see ber work done by the ‘young lady who goes out by the day. I work buttonholes and hem ruffles and such like and mamma gives her all the time she can spare from baby—and other things. But our et! is the motor of the housebold machine. 1don’t believe there is another like her in the world. The mold in which she was cast was broken.’’ „She had saidthisinachat held with her favorite this evening while the others were engaued with otber themes outside of the wmdow. May encouraged her to go on by remarking: ou love ber as deariy as if she were really your sister, don’t you?’ ä „„ „Ae welll’ The love I have for mother, sisters and brothers is a drop in the ocean compared with what I feel for Hetty!

She tempted me to eat; obliged me to take exercise; carried me up and down stairs, and sat with mein her arms out of doors until she hac saved $50 out of ber allowance to have my chair built. Hetty educated me—made me over! she is my brain, the blood of my heart—lI don’t believe I should have a soul but for Hetty!’* tbe warm waterstood in May’seyes. But the weak volce, thrilling with excitement, re- minded her of the danger of an excess of teel- ing upon the disjointed system. She spoke quietly: Oh, your father would have looked out for your soul!“ ‘*Would he?“ The accent of intensest acrimony shocked the listener, corroborated as it was by the bitterness of scorn that wrung the small face. In a second Hester caught herself up. They say that cobbiers’ wives go barefont. Ministers bave so little time to spaie forthe souls of their families that their chiidrena are pagauized. If it wasu't tor their wives and their wives’ ristera the forlorn creatures would not know who made them. It was aplausibie evasion, but it did not efface from May’s mind the disdainful out- burst and the black look that went with it. Both seemed so unnatural, even revolting, to a girl whose father stood with her asthe syn- ouym for nobility of manhood, that she could not get away from the recollection for the rest of the evening. This was before Mr. Wayt’s arrival, and sharpened May’s appre- ciation of the little by-play between Hester and her parent. His departure at 9 o’clock was succeeded by Hester’s at 10, and, as wae their habit, March and hie sister took her home by the path acrossthe orchard. The night was suitry; the moon lay languid under swaths of gray mist. She lo ked warm, and the stars near her faint and tired. Low down upon the horizon were flashes of purple sheet lightning. The town bad kept the Fourth patriotically and the odor of burned paper and gunpowder tainted the stiriess air. ‘*The grass is perfectiy dry, said May, stopping to lay her band upon the mown eward. That should be asign of a shower.’’ ‘*There is always rain onthe nightof the Fourth of July, returned March, abstract ediy. Hester sald notaword. Asshe looked up atthe sick moon ber eveshowed large and dark; her face was corpse-like in the wan radiance. She was weary and sbe had been indiscreet. She could not sleep without con- tessing to Hetty her lapse of temper and tongue and Hetty had enough to bear aiready. She bad not been so strong and bright as was her wont for a month past. It might be only excess of drudgery over sew- ing machine and household duties, but she looked fagged and sad attimes. The phaeton and borss would bene- fit mamma and the children—whben the vacant place beside the mistress of the manse was not occupied by her lord and master. He got the lion’s share of every luxury. Poor Hes- ter’s conscience and heart were rav, and the heat of the wounds Inflamed her !magination. The evening at the Judges had not rested her. That was strange, or would have been lain across the memory of it. The back door of the parsonage stood wide open and the house wasso still that as March stooped to lift Hester from her carriage at the /oot of the ateps, be cxucht the sound of what was scarcely louder than an intermittent sigh in the upper story, but continuous as a vio- lent fit of weeping. The arm that lay over his shoulder twitched convulsively; Hester shud- dered sharply, then laughed aloud: „Oh, Mr. Gilchrist! I thought I was failing! It je too bad to put you to alltbis trouble. I hope Tony basn’t blown himself up. He ougbt to have come for mo. 11 it 1 ' — Glancing Around With a Start That Was Not Theatrical.

Just lay me on the settee there! Somebody will be down directly. Don’t trouble yourself to bring the chairin. ‘Tony willattend tothat. Thank you! Good night, Mr. Gliichriet!

And the sound above stairs, hushed by Hester’s sprill tones—was it low, anguished weeping? The mourner was not Hetty, yet her dry eyes were fuli of misery. His big, soft heart ached with futile sympathy. By what undiscovered track could be fare near enough to her to make her conscious of this and of a love the greatness of which ought to neip her bear her load of trouble?

To reduce a giri like that to the level of a household dradge is barbarous. She has no time for society or recreation of any kind. It istoil, toil, toil, from morning until night. Mary Ann—the cook mamma got for them—says she ‘never saw such another young lady for sweetness and kindness to servants as Miss Hetty,’ but that she ‘carries all the bouse on them straight little shouiders ofhern.’ Hester tells the same story in better English. She repeated what she bad heard that even- poring and ing. Maroh stopped to listen under the king apple tree, where he had begun to love the subject of the culogy.

With all her pride in her family and am- bition for her brother May had a romantic side to her character. Had he liked Hetty less she would yethave pledged her support to her lover. She told him this while she strolled homeward, and then around and around the graveled drive in froat of the Glichrist portico, and bad, in return, the full story of his pas- sion. ‘*When I marry, my wife ill have all there is of me, he had said, long ago, to his sister.

He had noticed it when he pulled down a branch to get the spray he had torn apart, while May taiked. The air was full of foreign scents to-night and this might be an olfactory imaxination. As lz o'clock struck from the nearest church spire he was staring into the formless shadows overhead and living over the apple blossom week, thesymphony in pink and white. The young robins were full-fledged and bad flitted from the parent nest.

What is going on?’’ Thor whined and beat the ground with his tall, both tentatively, as asking information in return. In raising his own head from the yielding and soft rustling grasses, March became aware ofasound, iterative and teasing, that vexed the languid night. It was like the tick- ing ofaclock, or ot an uncommonly strenu- ous death-watch. While he listened it seemed to gather force and become rhythmic. **Click! click! claekl] click! click! clack!

The rhythmic iteration made his master nervous; the sharp warning of the bell at the end of each line pierced his ear like the pinch of a fine wire. He sat up and looked about him. An aperture in the foliage let through a Fingle ray of light. It came from the direction of the parsonage. **Tony'’s pet hallucination is of a wander- ing light inthe garden and orchard, a sort of ‘Willo’ the Ning 4 affair, which {t is his duty to look aiter,’’ Hester had said that evening.

[Written for the SUNDAY PoORT-DISPATCH. | ANY think the fan is as old as the fig leaf. In fact it is possible that Its use antedates that of the primitive gar- ment adopted ‘by Mother Eve. It is not too much to suppose that in the heat of the day our first mother avalled herself of one of the numerous paim leaves offered by na- ture in that tropical clime and fashioned the first fan. Or taking the view that mankind rose rather than fell, itis mae OAT NT SSS yy, probable that the fan is contemporaneous with humanity itself, and it is more than likely that the ape- man or the man-ape first manifested bis budding intelli- gence by plucking a palm leaf and mitigating the fever of the equatorial atmosphere. At any rate among allsavage people the fan is found as an implement of use and adornment, and even among the most primitive people it was one of the first objects upon which the instinct for beauty spent itself. The Hebrews knew it and used it not only to cool themselves, but to winnow their corn. It is said that there is not a single early tomb- stone of the Hindostan which is not deco- rated with the carvings of a fan, a fly brow anda parasol, three articles peculiarly the products of a torrid climate. In India grada- tions In rank are indicated by the more or less luxuriance of these three, and from the simple palm leafto the richest tvory and silx might be traced the ascent from peasant to To the Japanese is also attributed the inven. tion of the foldingfan. Those used in Egypt, India, China, Greece and Italy all appear to be made of feathers arranged in half circles or in the form of a pheasant’s tall, but all ap. pear stiff and uncpanged in form. But it is only in the Western world that the fan became an article of historical impor.- tance. In HLurope it bas played no unimpor- tant and no inconspicuous part in the affaire of mon. It nas deen a veritable instrument of war, none the less effective because used quietly in the hands of women. From the time of Cesar to the Crusades it appears to be used as a part of the religious Ceremonial, as an instrument of worship and Very little as @ domestic article.

In the apostolic constitutions which are the funda- mental laws of the CatholicChurch it was ordered that during mass from the oblation to the communion two deacons standing on either side of the altar should wave each a peacock feather fan in order to add to the cel- ebrant’s comfort as well as to prevent flies and other insects from alighting on the conse- crated offering. By Christians, too, the fan seems to have come to be regarded asthe symbol of autbority because, while, owing perhaps to its increasing application to worid- ly purposes during the fourteenth century, it fell into disuse in the performance of religious ceremonies, the Pope retained the privilege of using it; and even at the present time on state occasions he appears preceded by two fan bearers carrying each a fan made of ostrich eathors. But when Catherine de Medici brought this trifie into France, its career as a social and political influence began.

Elizabeth, indeed, won the title of Patron of the Fan and owned no less than twenty-seven, which was thought to be a large number at that time, but which would now be considered a very poor collection indeed. These were, of course, of the richest pattern, suitable for @ Queen. She ordained that the fan was the one article which a subject might present to bis sovereign, and it is need'ess to say that the many courtiers ofthe court eagerly availed themselves of this privilege to win ber favor. Nor was ite use confined to women. Young men who thought it effeminate to ride in 3 coach dandled s fan at their wrista and in- scribed love verses on the handles. Poor Mary Stuart bad one fan which she kept with her constantly during the long nineteen years of her captivity. I went through many changes of form, but always was rather an article of luxury than an instrument of use, Manners are traceable through the transfor- mations ot the fan. The plainer sort were in the quiet times of the revolution relegated to the old ladies ‘‘as more comely and civil for old persons than the folding fan, which is associated with nothing but vanlty. But the younger women were not contented with anything lain. Precious stones were lavished on their fans to such an extent that we are told in Addison's Spectator when Sir Roger de Coverly was courting a widow he declared the profits of a windmill would have to be set apart to keep her in fans; from which declaration we gather not only that Sir Roger’s widow had luxurious tastes in fans, but also that windmilis were a good investmens in those days. Those were prosperous days forfans. They wereso much a part of life that life would have deen impossible without them. They in- Gueed mischief and hid pain; they masked scorn and covered blushes. - A woman's self- possession received constant aid from the convenient fan, and plots and counterplots were conceived behind its friendly shelter. \ Mary Stuart e Fan, prude or a coquetie according to the nature of the person who bolds it.’’ It is not too extravagant to say that élvil- ization is in a way epitomized by the fan. On them is first recorded the legends of mythology; then among the Arabians and ~~ N \ NS Middle Ages and Early Chinese. Christiansthe religious spirit finds expres- sion, while later on the spirit of love and chivalry is shown by the inscriptions. In the seventeenth century fans were made of enormous size. This style was gradually su- perseded by the opposite and became almost imperceptible. A French writer, who bad a habit of saying sharp things and had most likely been jilted by a coquette, explains this change from very large to very small by say- ing that when women were timid and blushed they used to carry large fans and hid their faces behind them. Now that they blush no longer and are intimidated by nothing they do not care to hide their taces and, consequently, they carry but micro- scopic fans. The riotous extravagance of the French court in the days before the Revo- lution showed itselfin fans ase in all other things. Marie Antoinette was presented with a fan said to de the most beautiful and cer- tainly the mostcostly one ever made. Thirty thousand dollars was congealed inthis luxu- rious trifle. When the Revolution came on partisan ladies Inscribed on their fans ‘‘ Vive la Roi’’ or Vive le Nation’’ according as their prejudices were royal or republican. And as there was an affectation of simplicity for a time the elaborate fans of Marie Antoin- ette gave place to simple devices appropriate to a republican court. But the simplicity did not last long, for soon the luxury. barbaric in many respects, of the Napoleonic court revived the practices of the former regime and fans partook of the new richness of spirit. The last prominent appearance of the fan as a factor in history was when the Dey of Algiers insulted the French consul by touch- ing or striking him on the cheek. This was immediately followed by the occupation of the country by the French and its conquest and annexation. Since then the fan has be- come more modest, and is valued not so much as a luxurious adjunct to a coquette’s toilet as a necessity for rich and poor alike, and asa consequence we find more satisfaction in a8 cent palm leaf than we could possibly get of Sir Roger’s fan which cost the profite of a windmill or from the $30,000 trifle carried by the unfortunate Marie Antoinette. — With His Thumb, A boy is said to have saved the Netherlands from inundation. Multitudes have been saved from the invasion of disease by a bottle of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. This medicine imparts tone to the system and strengthens every organ and fibre of the body. “TI have taken a great deal of medicine, but nothing has done me so much good as Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I experienced its bene- ficial effects before I had quite finished one bottle, and I can freely testify that it is the best blood medicine I know of.“ — L. W.

Another was of white silk embroidered in Japanese style and dutton-holed in scallops at the edges. Others were in blue and red checked silk with red spotted hems two inches wide. There were others of bright Scariet and rose-colored and turquolse-hued mull, these Iconfessto having found most Martina.

One rather eccentric young woman who will have millions when she marries contents herself with nothing less dlaphanous for wear with her evening costumes than handkerchiels of butter-colored mousseline de sole. For day use when choosing aspot for her monogram she doesn’t favor either the middie of her meouchoir or its corner, but has a littie lozenge of mull stitched on somowhere along the bor- Ger and on this is worked the highly aristo- cratic lettering.

The two colors most used in stockings are black and silver; the one for useful wear, the other for dress occasions. matching the gray silk and kid shoes which have such a summer vogue. Manufacturers seem to think—per- haps with some show of reason—that there's no limit to a woman’s folly, provided she has money and they show her something new. At any rate, they are setting insertions of Valen- clennes and malines lace in stockings, and there's no doubt that girls who dress, not wisely but too well, will be captivated by such cost! tawdriness. It’s amusing to note the struggles of the Jenuness Miller proselytes with their hose. They wear, according to orders, spiral wire garters below the knees, and then the modern stocking having a considerable length of leg, they face the necessity of knotting, in addition, ribboss above the knees. There seems to ben solu- tion of the garter question, unless in despera- tion one adopts, as many women have, Stock- ings that join at the top, button at the waist and go commonly by another name. The new fans are as pretty asthe girie for whom they are made. Sometimes they have carved ivory sticks and gauze covers, with lightly gathered gauze frills edging the staves. Sometimes the gauze is ofa faint blue color and overthis are set crinkled rose petals, forming one great pink or pale yellow rose. For the Empire dresses there are rococo fans or young girls use those composed of narrow ripoons intersecting the fretted staves. It is considered geod usage to use gauze and lace fans only inthe dall room. For the theater painted fans are preferabie. The feather fan increases in stature. Little Mattie Sheridan’s is almost tall enough to act as her chaperone. Standing frilis of lace are substituted for the high collar, or ifoneis completely emancl- pated there are finger-wide ruffles of mousse- line de sole to be turned back from the open throat, or there are deep coilarettes of silk muslin to be plaited full about the neck and tied with aribbon underthechin. For ging- ham and print dresses turned over collars are among the noveltics, in white batiste or in rose, ecru or pale blue lawn. These are sometimes mounted on chemisettes, though not always. Narrow collarettes are rather comical. They show double ruchings of fringed silk tied in front with rib- bons. Big throat bows of biack gauze are Among the prettiest of the neck fixings. Vandyke points of white lace are attractive set over white crepe plaited in ruffles. Lace collars and eus come in pretty sets and find many admirers. Linen collars have the cor- ners turned down slightly and the cuffs are rounded off on their upper edges. Striped cuffs share their empire with plain white ones. The daintiest dress accessories obsery- able are tne Venetian scarfs of soft crepe de Chine to be crossed on the breast aud passed under the arms. Women who are shopping these hot June days are buying „shoulder shawis,’’ which are squares of cream-colored or white India silk, emoroid- ered all over with flower sprays and edged with a deep fringe. These are folded as a Quakeress tolds her kerchief and worn at twi- light on the cottage veranda or hotel piazza when the wind begins to turn ehill. The simplest way to finish the neck of a gown if one does not care to spend much money is to buy someof the soft, inexpensive Oriental lace, gather it full aud let it fall over in a frill. ELLEN OSBORN. — — Mrs. Cleveland’s Summer House. Mrs. Grover Cleveland’s beautiful home in Madison avenue has been closed for the sum- mer. The floors are laid with white crash, every chair and divan has a linen apron, and | consoles and mantels are shrouded from a humen habitation, a claim.’’ finally lost her beaith, and, in the hope of re- gaining it, came East last Autumn, her husband alone. ter finall up with both legs broken. penniless and alone, aud his wife is heipless and penniless here, unabie to reach him. she hud sold everythi made up her mind for either the street or the pictures, pedestals, cabinets, mirrors, in new cheese cloth. The shutters are closed, the shades drawn aud the whole house ia in darkness. Fromthis stately abode the late mistress of the White House hus gonetoa quiet retreat in the harbor of Ma- rion, on the coast of Massachusetts, where sne will spend the season with her distinguished husband and intimate friends. The house she opened a week ago is an old-fashioned frame structure, originally intended for two families, so that she rejoices in the luxury of double kitchens as well as double pariors. These rooms are high- walled apartinents, papered white, with vivid bor- ders along the ceiling not any wider than Mrs. Cleveland’s little finger could measure. The charm ofthese roome is the great chimney, with ite sioping breast, narrow hearth and matchless draught. The sieeping-rooms are ofthesize of ordi- nary closets and are quaintly furnished with odds and ends ofsets. One ofthe rooms con- tains an old canopy top bed and a mahogany chest of drawers ornamented with glass knobs. The cottage has a bath, but no gas. The hall is not wide enough to admit a Sara- toga trunk, and the stairway hasan alarming tendency to groan when it istrodon. The house is shingle finished, and the sun and rain of many years bave painted ita weather gray. The plaza ie an uncertain white, but nothing is the matter with the view which covers the beach and takes in the pictureague islands along the inner harbor. A field of daisies three acres in extent surrounds the little gray cottage,and there is a private bath- house at the foot of the bluff leading to the beach. Mr. Cleveland, whose business keeps himin the city, will spenda part of every week fishing about the neighborhood. Many invitations were sent to Mra. Cleveland from friends in New Jersey and New England re- sorts asking her to epend a part ot the season with them, but a desire to escape the dissipa. tion continued from the winter forced her to decline. While just as fond of society as she Was in the White House, Mrs. Cleveland feels the need ofrest as well as a change. An Ancestral Petticeat. Amarvelious example of old-time needie- work has found ite way into one ofthe ex- changes for women’s work in New York City through the lmpecuniousness of the family in which it has long been cherished as an heir- loom.

HIS FAMOUS LETTERS TO HIS SON AND HOW THEY WERE WRITTEN. A High Cede of Gentiemanly Merale—Several Offerses Condened, buat Vaigarity Unpar- donable—The Tree Ruster ef Chester field’s Falling Out With Dr. Jehuscoa— The Career of a Pelished Gentle man. [Written for the SUNDAY For- Dran. ! None of the frst half dosen of the Ramb- leres, Dr. Samuel Johnson gives an alle gory in whioh be repre- sents the Goddess of Criticlem to have de- scended to earth for the purpose of deciding what newly published — books should live and what should not. The Goddess soon finding her labor arduous, but findiog that Time was also engaged in that duty, consigning most new books to oblivion and only a few to immortality, decided to leave the job to Time and she returned to her abode in the skies, and since then Time has discharged the function of the Goddess with only occasional mistakes. The allegory ie a happy one, but especially in the fact of ad mit- ting that Time is not infallible. Chesterfield’s letters to his gon is an iliustra- tion. True, the work still lives, but its life is valetudinarian. Itilves, but under a world’s protest that it ought long ago to have died. That it does thus live is decisive proof of its merit. Few men, even among the intelligent, know how or why these letters came to be written; whatare their character and scope, or, indeed, what and who Lord Chesterfield was. Ninety-nine men out of a hundred sup- pose the letters to have been one studied pro- duction—a book written in the form of letters to a son, real or imaginary, and published by the author as an elaborate literary perform- ance. They suppose Chesterfield himseif to have been only anotber Beau Brumwmell, the first dude in England, tall, shapely, hand- some, with pearly teeth, a killing mustache, with just enouwh superficial learning to enable him to shine and in his book inculeating the manners of a simpering fool and the morals of a libertine and scoundrel. The word Chester- fieldianism has come to be a synonym fora system of manners graceful and polished in- deed, but heartiess and with an implication of Üttle sense, no valuable intelligence and de- depraved morale. What are the letters and who was Lord Chesterfield? Philip Dormer Stanhope, Lord Stan- and afterwards Earl of Chester- London, Septem- 24,1773. Both his educational and social advantages were good and he made good use of them. He became a fair Greek scholar, atiained famillarity with the best Latin writers, prose and poetry, and by a long residence in Paris, he not only gota perfect masteryof the French tongue, so that he spoke it with as much fluency as English and with pure Parisian accent, but still better, he be- came familiar with French literature. He had a vigorous intellect and a tenacious mem- ory and he abhorred indolence. In early years he wasted sometime in dissipation, but among the forms of vice he discriminated. Laying no claim to saintilness, Stanhope DID CLAIM TO BEA GENTLEMAN. To be lazy he thought unbecoming a gentle- man. Drunkenness was beastly, but he gam bied heavily. He entered Parliament very young, aiwbitious to makea mark. Hila per- bon Was against him. He was short and stumpy, bis shape none of the best, his teeth black, a fact detracting materialiy from the effectiveness of hie smlle, and he was II- favored as possible not to be deformed. George II., who hated him, called him a *‘dwart baboon.’’ He cultivated manners as a matter ofsetudy. Lut he also cultivated his mind. His reading was ail of the valuable sort. He disdained to waste time on books that were irivolous. He was ambitious to be an orator, and he kuew that no man can rightiy expect the attention ofan audi. ence unless be says sometbing worthy of at- tention. True, he must also be able to say things finely. But of what value is the art ofeaying things to him who has nothing to say? Stanhope studied only literature that was valuable and he studied that with fair in- austry. The but the HE BECAME AN ORATOR. of pleasing he knew well: art of instructing also he came to know well. lie was not, itis true, a great parliamentary orator Ie Fox, like Webster or, in a different sense, like Burke. But hie ave was not prolific in Foxes, Websters,or Burkes. With any man of his day he bore comparison well. lie had as much learning asany, he had as much industry as any, he had as much polish of manner end felicity of expression as the beat. In 1726 the death f hie father changed him from Lord Stan- hope to Earl Chesterfield and placed hfmin the House of. Lords. In 1733 he married the dausuter of the Duchess of Kendall, the moth- er a woman of no good repute. No children were bora of the marriage and it was not prob- ably a bappy one. At an early age Ches- terfield received a subordinate diplomatic appointment at The Hague. The rich Duke of Marlborough resided there, the richest, the most avaricious and the most kmavieh subject ot England. A man of sweeter smiles, a politer man than the great Marlborough, never lived. The hero of Blenheim and other great military victories, he was everywhere reckoned to be one of the world’s great wen- erals. Chesterfleld became intimate with him and with his wife, the Duchess Sarah. Often THEY DINED TOGETHER; Every hight they played cards together. Marlborough was uncommonly handsome and hadasmile that was enchanting. Ches- terfield was the opposite of handsome and had black teeth. Chesterfield soon came to know, what everybody sow knows ,that Mar- borough was utterly iiliterate, ond knew, too, that himself was uncommonly well educated and well read. Chesterfield saw that Marl borough owed his success in rising from the rank of Queen's waiting boy to that of commander of the army to winning manners and sweet smiles, the cheap sort of talent necessary to mi- tary success he had; buat he had nothing more. His opinion of Marlborough be writes, years afterward, to his son thus: Of all the men that leverknew in my liiie (and I knew him extremely well) the late Duke of Mal- borough possessed the graces in the highest degree, not tosay enurossed them; and in- deed he got the most by them: for]! will ven- ture (contrary to the custom of profound historians who always assign deep causes for rofoand events) to ascribe the better halt of lariborough’s greatners and riches to those graces. He was emin- ently illiterate ; wrote bad English and spelled it worse. He had no share in what is commonly called Parts; that is, he had no brightness, nothing shining io bis enius. He had mo«t undoubtedly an excol- ent good plain understanding witb sound — * But these alone would probab y jave raised him but something higher than they found him, page to James it's queen.’’ In Mariborvugh’s amazing success, partiy through bie baseness and partly in spite of it, coup'ed with the commonness of his mind and the poverty of his intelligence Chester- field saw the value, the practical value of the graces. The g:acesand ‘‘an exoeilent good plain understanding with sound judgment“ were all that Mariborough bad except 6 moral nature whose baseness was unrivaled. Chesterfield displayed ability io diplomatic business and was promoted. About 174 he was asppointed Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland. That country bad heen badly ruled. It had been ruled by bigots and it was exactly the country in which a bigot should not rule. The Irish people were largely Vatholics. The idea of the Lord-Lieutenants prior to Chesterfleid Dad been that they represented a government that was Protestant and that hence Protest- antism should be beld in favor and Catholic- jem in disfavor. Chesterfield was different. He held that civil government is NEITHER PROTESTANT NOR CATHOLIC. That it ie Ke duty to protect neither religion except lu the sense that every man should be protected ia thinkieg and worshiping as he pleases, provided he does not interfere with the seme right in his neighbor. Chesterfield overned firmly but impartially. Firm aud mpartial goveroment in the course of time alns the approval of all. Chesterfield came in high regard bv the Irish. conceived an affection for epeakinu of them, in letters to persone abroad as my countrymen.’’ 15 would be tedious to set forth the facts w ticularity; it will suhee to say that as a _ Foler—nay, as a ruler of art ap jgporast and tur- e a people divided by religious Gissensions that were dnreasoning and ran- eorous—Chesterfield ruled firmiy, but justly and successfully. The man who at that day could rule Ireland 42 — a mere dancing He ruled a0 ully and creditably only because he ruled justiy. Early in 1748 Chesterfield retired from publle lie. . hed come to be regarded as the most acoompiished gentieman in England. Mr. Samuel Johnson, not then a r of lawe, bad conceived the purpose of writing a dictionary of the English language. It was et the age of patrons. By the death of the Re of Mariborough, Chesterfield had received a P of more than $100,000. He alse affected a special regard for men of learning. Accordingly, Johnson, on publishing bu pian of the dictionary, ded!- ca the work to Lord Chesterfield. The latter gave it no attention. Meanwhile Johnson, whose learning was as great as bis pene was fertile, had publishing the **Rambler,’’ got into fame. When it was announced that the English dictionary, by the author of 'the Ramdbler, was on the eve of publication Chesterfield, who saw the mistake he had made in neglecting the dedication, published two or three articies 1 the forthcoming dictionary in warm, nay, in ex- travagant terms. But it was too late. John- son’s blood was up. He who feared no mortal alive was not afraid of the Eari of Chesterfield. BE WROTE HIM THE LETTER, I do not say a letter, but the letter. It stands to-day conspicuous in literary history. At the end of another bundred years it WII still be conspicuous. In scholarly refinement, in ab- solute lack of coarseness, in lofty withering scorn, that letter is a model. Knowing his social rank agan Earl; kuowing his success in public life and his rank asa parilamentary orator, Chesterfield here showed his good sense. He saw that the coarse-mannered, uncouth, ungainly pedant bad him; that no reply that genius could produce would an answer. He adopted wiser tactics. He kept Johbneon’s letter lying on the table, Called the attention of visitors to it, and with a mile read the most stinging sentences, commending their felicity. Johmson deter- mined bis course, and did his part well. Ches- terfield determined his course, and did his art equally well. Chesterfie!d knew that in ntellectual antagonism he could mateh any- thing In the House of Lords, but be knew, too, that he could not match Samuel Johnson. As Pope in hie Dunclad, as Byron in his **‘Engiish Bards’’ and Scotch Reviewers’’ bas given hamortaiity to persons who would otberwise be unknown, so Johnson, by the letter, bas at least added, not enviably, to the fame of Chesterfield. Itis unsafe to meltreat genius. Could Chesterfield, could the world at that time have matched Johnson in literary com bat? Chesterfield was afterward made Secretary of State. But he was growing old and he seems to bave accepted with reluctance, to have served with success but impatience, and finally to bave resigned with pleasure to him- self, though with royal regret. This was early in 1748. His acceunt of his public career is mournful, bat also instructive. ‘‘l have gone through pleasures while wy constitution and my spirits would allow me. Business succeeded them and I have pow gone through every purt or it without likin it at all the better for being acquainted with it. Like many other things it is most admired by those who Know itieast. I have been behind the scenes, both of pleasure and business; I have seen all the coarse pulleys and dirty ropes which exbibit and move all the gaudy machines and I have seen and : SMELT THE TALLOW CANDLES which illuminate the whole decoration to the astonishment and aduiiration of the ignorant muiltitude.’* Whatacommentary on public life from one who, with the rank of Earl, had led a useful, successful and brilliant public career! . When was the volume of letters written and for what purpose? Chesterfieid had a natural son, Philip Stanhope, whom he loved devot- edly. No man was ever more auxious for the proper education of his son, When the boy was 6 Or 7 years old he was sent to The Hague and afterward to Leipsic, Turin, Rome, Paris and other continental cities, in each of which he might pursue his studies, but in addition, by long residence, acquire a conversational acquaintance with the languages spoken and a «00d pronunciation of them. From the time tue son went to The Hague 4 chiid in 1738, until his death as Envoy at Dresden ia 1768, the father wrote hima letter about once ina fortnight. They were written in the pressure of busi- ness, with occasional! misquotations and slips in grammar, and without a thought of publi- cation. The son, with fllal pride, preserved them, and after both son aud father were in their graves the letters were published. They were the mere private admonitionsand ex- hortations of an affectionate and intel gent father to his only child. It is commonly supposed that they are devoted exclusively to politeness and the graces. The truth is that probably not one sentence out of fifty, possibly not one outofa hundred, is devoted to those subjecis, lie writes to the boy about his studies (for Chester fold was able to do that), about Latin and Greek poetry, about ail poetry, about the great value of an acquaintance with poetry, about certain books on history that should be read, about his hours of study, his hours ofeleep and his hours of recreation. He repeatedly 4njolns bim as to neatnoss and propriety of dress, gentiy scolds him for not taking more pains to writea good hand, re- turns one of Philip’s letters to show him how carelessly he has written Il and ee, di- rects him to clean his teeth often for their preservation, and telis him how, for this was before the day of tooth brush and dentitrice. Such Is the history, such the character of these letters. Throughout the world they are branded as immoral. The fact is that thereis no topic on which the father writes more fre- ventiy or more feelingiy than on morale. ear him: ‘‘Nothing is MORE INFAMOUS AND DISHONORABLE than to tell lies and break our word.“ Iam sure you know tbat breaking your word isa tony, a dishonor and a crime.’’*‘l ask nothing of you but what is in your power; to be an honest, a learned anda well-bred man. As forthe first Icannot, Iwill not doubt ft. I think you already know the infamy, the hor- rors and the misfortunes that always attend a dishonest and dishonorable manu. These are the real pleasures of a gentieman, which oc- casion neither sickness, shame nor repent- ance. Whatever exceeds them becomes low vice, brutal passion, debauchery and insanity of mind, allof which, far from giving satis- faction, bring on dishonor and shame. ‘*Bolid knowledge, as I bave often told you, is the first and great foundation of your future fortune and charac- ter, for never mention to you the two much greater points of religion and morality, be- cause I cannot possibly suspect*you on either of them. For God’s sake be scrupulously — of the purity of your moral character; eep it Immaculate, unblemished,unsullied.’ In purity of character and in politeness of manner, jabortoexceiall.’’ Are these pre- cepts immoral? How, then, leit that Chesterfielad’s letters are condemned! First, as it is an ,English production it was judged by the English. No intellivyent Engzlishman willideny tibet 150 years ago the Engiish were inferior in polish and manners to the French; were in fact, in those respects, arude people. Chesterfield, partly educated in Paris, bad early learned the value of good breeding. He wisbed his son to be well bred. He accordingly lectures nim frequently onthe subject and occasionally makes unsavory - comparisons between French polish and English bluntness. En- Elis pride was miffed. Unable to say any- thing worse itcharged the letters with im morality. Secondly, these letters do un- doubtedly enjoin what is called worldly wis- dom. Do not wear your heart on your coat- sieeve fordaws topeck at. Be reserved but do not seem to be reserved. COMPLIMENT A LADY a little strongiy. Adopt the humor of the company you are lin.

Johnson and everybody else recognized the picture. Old Samuel was nettied, Sir, Lord Chester- field never saw me eat in his life. As author of these letters Ohesterfield was one of the most useful men of his day in En- gland. No prior Engiish writer had been a champion of the graces. Addison, it is true, was goodin spirit and Swift had written on politeness. But neither had done or attempted what Chesterfield did. Both morals and religion had been acerb and polish of manners bad been at a discount, and every lady kaows that civilized society is that he le a gentieman. Chesterfield’s crime was in enjoining a behavior whict all worthy | men alm to practice, that is, in advising his son tightly and honestly. It ought to be added that there was a special reason why the father reourred with frequency to the subject of the graces; the son specialiy needed such advice. tie was siovenly in dress, greatiy defective in enunciation, not over clean in his person not refined la manner, in- observant of social proprieties, and, worst of all, either ignorant of his defects or else in- different about them. In such case a father would naturally and properly advert with greater frequency and greater earnestness to the graces. The letters ought to be read by every young man and young woman. English retaliation upon Chesterfield for his true portrayal of Enxlish biluntness should no longer kee these valuabie letters from being read by ail — who desire to cultivate the art of good- reeding. Johnsons, himeeif, once said: Tae out the immorality and the book should be in the hands of every young man.

[Written for the SUNDAY PosT-DiseaTcn. | HE itfeot a lawyer in criminal practice is fall of Interest and often of excitement. He has opportunities to study human nature in the rough such as no other man bas, for criminals are not usually given to the observance of the conventionalities of civilized life. And de- sides the unadorned characters met with there is the continual efforts on the part of the counsel not to get atthe truth, butto get a verdict—efforts tem- pered by the desire of the Judge to administer, not justice, but the law, the various play of which presentsa spectacle of consuming interest to those who are interested in games of any sort. For of all games, the administration of justice in criminal courts is one of the most intricate and difficult to play successfully. Montagu Wiilliams, who has just retired from practice in England, has, following the example of Sergeant Ballantine, written his reminiscences. His practice extended from 1862 to 1886, during which period . he was con- nected with many if not most of the great criminal cases. 8 Judging from the account given by Mr. Williams the life of an English barrister in large practice is more varied and intense than in this country. He says that no one not iu the swim can have any conception of the amount of work and wor that devolves upon counsel in leading criminal practice. He has to be at chambers (office) at 9 o’clock in the morning and an hour later in court. Several courts sit simultaneously and it often happens that he bas a use going on in each atthe same time. He bas to do the best he can with the assistance of ‘‘juniors’’ and other assistants. In ome court he will open the case, then hurry to another, where he will cross-examine the principal witness, and from there pass to a third, where he makes the speech for the defense. And all the time he must keep in touch with each case, always prepared to atonce assimilate any informa- tion his assistant may impart concerning unexpected turns in the case vr unlooked for disclosures by witnesses. From adjournment atS5o’ciock until 7 he ia busy with consvita- tions, and after a hasty dinner reads his briefs and maps out his course forthe nextday. Of course, he is limited to his duties in court, for the division of the work between solicitor and barrister oniy makes it possible for him to carry on 80 many Cases at the same time. „THE OBSTINATE ELEVEN.’’ On the jury question Mr. Williams has some good stories of the ‘‘obstinate eleven,’’ who seem to be as numerous in England as in America. A certain solicitor enjoyed large criminal practice and was known, feared and trusted by all the thieves, burglars and re- ceivers—especially by the last named. This man employed Williams to defend one of his clients—Solomon Isaacs—who was charged with receiving stolen goods. The case was aclear one, and Mr. Williams declared they had not a leg to stand on.“ But this only amused the littie solicitor and his client, who made very merry over their counsel’s despondency. When the case came on the solicitor was ou hand quiet and confl- dent. But when the names orf the jurymen were read it was found there were thirteen of them in the box, the thirteenth belug a man who had taken his place there before the pro- ceedings opened and who had busied himseit with anewspaper. ‘‘Upon the matter being investigated, this man rose and addressed the court. He was the most melancholy man 1 eversaw. He was dressed in black and looked the very picture of misery. ‘My Lord,’ he said, ‘lam afraid lam the cause of this con- fusion. LTaminthe list of jurymen. for to- morrow, butI bave had a great misfortune happen to me. I have lost my wife. Thereupon the kind-hearted recorder at once excused him, but the bereaved gentieman said: ‘‘No, this will distract my attention from my grief. Excuse one of the other gen- tlemen to dav and iet him serve in my place to-morrow when I shall have to attend the funeral.’’ This request was granted, and the trial proceeded. Ihe evidence was even stronger than Williams bad anticipated, and its conclusion his client’s case had not 4 leg to stand the jury remained out untill 8 o’clock in tbe morning, when they camein, wearicd and disgusted looking, and announced a verdict of not guilty.’’ The little solicitor danced with delight. Not a leg to stand on! Not a leg to stand on!’’ he exciaimed gleeful- ly and then burried the prisoner from the dock. It was s extraordinary that Mr. WIII- lams could not resist the temptation of asking the foreman ofthe jury the meaning of it. **Lor’ bless you, sir, said he, nn was that miserable looking chap as lost his wife. There never was such an obstinate, disagreeable fel- low born. From the first he suid he had made up his mind that the prisoner was not gulity and he said he would never consent to 4 ver- dict the other way. When we wentto the room he put his great coat down in a corner, curled himself up on it and commenced read- ing the newspaper. When anybody spoke to bim he said he wouldn’t answer unless they’d come over to his way of thinking. The worst of it was, sir, that we had nothing to eat or drink, but thie obstinate chap kept eating sandwicbes and drinking brandy und water from a yreat fiask he had brought in bis pocket, and when we asked him for some he burst out laughing and said he wouldn't give us a mouth- ful between us. Well, sir what was the good of our sticking out? There we was andthe Recorder had said he wouldn’t discharge us; so we should have stopped there and starved. One by one gavein until we all agreed to ‘not guilty.’’’ Butthere was further licht on the subject. The next morn- ing Mr. Williams had occasion to pase the lit- tle solicitor’s office, and whom should he see coming out of it but the obstinate juryman. Strange tosay, he no waar wore a melan- choly expression, andin place of the black clothes of the previous day he was attired in a light tweed suit such as a tourist affects and bad a merry, seif-satiefied twinkle in his eye. A VERDICT ON PUGILISTIC PRINCIPLES. But in one case at least the obstinate eleven were too much for thelr fellow juror. Ina certain election a riot had broken out and one of the rioters, a Conservative gamed Watkin, got into trouble. He was charged with bein the ringleader, but—as it was afterwa learned—was entirely innocent. A certain butcher of Liberal tendencies swore be would get on the jury somehow and then have a leg cut off betore he would acquit. Sergeant Bal- lantine, who was associated with Mr. Williams tor the defense, heard of this and challenged, but as the case wasone of misdemeanor, not ot felony, the challenge was not allowed. Thereupon Ballantine siuted the facts to the Recorder, who advanced to persuade the butcher to withdraw, but this he would not do. ‘‘Ieban’t budgeapinch. I never said what has been attributed to me; and if I h said it, Istand on my rights as an Enylieb- man. l’ve aright to serve on the jury and on the jury I' serve. b eae the Judge remarked that he would rely upon his good sense end the obligation of his oath and al- lowed bim to be sworn, The trial oeca two days. the evidence was conflict ing, but generally was favorable to the defendant.

Three judges sat upon the bench. The court was so arranged that the dock was immediately be- hind the bench at which the Procureur-General stood while he opened his case. In perhaps the most damaging part of his accusation against the two defendants one of them duced from his pocket a snuff box and K therefrom a huge pinch of snuff. As he did so the Procureur-General turned around and with a smile and the word ‘‘pardon’’ alse took a pinch from the box, after which he concluded the sentence that had been for the moment interrupted.

In the same compartment was & man who entered it at some station. The gentleman feil asleep and when he awoke discovered that his watch was gone, Turning to the stranger he asked: „Has anyone else entered this compartment while Il have been asleep?“ No, was the answer.

He was, however, handed over to the police and brought before Sir James Ingham, who remanded him to jail. As he bad neo friends in that part of the coun he couldn't give ball, and accordingly spent the night with the criminals. The next morning when the case was calied the prosecutor eu- tered the witness-box wearing a , zected appearance.

The day on the udson with its bright, calm beauty whispers of the peace and happiness that sometimes comes to all asa ioretaste of a happier home where the sunlight never dies.

Arriving at NEW YORK it seemed like bome for on the pier was the PO8ST-DISPATOH special representative, who gave us a warm welcome and has filled in our time so agreeably that we have not had time to do any writing. We were driven at once to the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where we are sumptuously quartered. We arrived in New York at 6:30 p. m. yester- day, and at8o’clock we were in a box at the new Madison Square Garden, lookiug at the wonderful ballet of Peace and War, and later on listening to the wooing strains of Strauss’ music from the Strauss orchestra from Vienna. We finished off the night with ices and eclairs at Maiilard’s. To-day we started out early to shop, the PosT- DISFATCH representative accompanying us.

Hopkins, a rather pretty l4-year- old girl made a desperate attempt at self-de- struction yesterday afternoon at her home, 1518 Wash street. It appears that she had some troubie with her parents, and they concluded warily in the day to send her to the convent conducted by the Sisters of the Good Shepverd. When she learned of their intention she be- came wild with rage and grief, and while in that state of mind swallowed a bi dose of ‘‘rough on rats. She was taken violently iii, and when ber cries attracted her father she told bim she bad taken poison. An am- bulance was hastily summoned and she was taken to the Dispensary, where Drs. Priest, Btelametz and Jacobson applied the usual restorative: and worked hard to defeat the action of tbe terri- ble dose she had ewallowed. Ly a liberal use of thestomach pump they removed much of the poison, but her system bat taken up con- siderabie and that may eventually cause her death. She Was sent to the City Hospital in a critical condition. Her father stated thatsince the schoo! had closed, he found it difficult to keep bis daugh- ter out of miechivf. She was wayward aad disobedient, be sald ,and it was for that reason he couciudeéd to turu her ver to the sisters.

Campbell’s Will Construed. THINK some women would make better wives if they were Knocked down a little oftener.’’ The speaker was Jobn Bertrand of Mis- sissippi, and at the time he was being cross-examined by Mr. W. F. McEntire, who is representing the man’s wife. The injured lady sat in court and all eyes were turned on her when the man who had sworn to protect her admitted that he had struck ber. Bertrand was married in this city in 1880, and in less than two years he and his wife separated after a most brutal quarrel. He went to Perry County, Miss, and she fol- lowed bim later, but soon returned, and for seven years he has seen neither his wife nor daughter Edith, now 9 years old. He secured a divorce in Perry County and married again. Achild was born to his sec- ond wife, but it died not long ago, and since then he made up his mind to secure posses- sion of his daughter, who has remained in the undisputed control of the mother for seven years, never receiving any ald or support from him at any time aud never hearing from him of late years but once. The man's accountof his career as a hus- band and father was not calculated to make him appear Hike a hero. Mrs. Bertrand was, he said, asister of his brother’s wife, the brother residing In North St. Louls. He was questioned closely us to why his wife left him, and for some time he could remember no cause. At last, his memory having been jogged, he admitted that it was because he knocked ber down, „What did you knock her down with?“ was the next question. Mr. Bertrand treated the query as a de- cidedly foolish one and promptly notified the inquisitive attorney that he used his fst, his tone of voice suggesting the question, ‘‘What do you suppose I knocked her down with?’’ Attorney MeEutire didn’t stop to notice the sarcesem, and in bis severest tones asked: Do you think that is the proper treatment for women?“ To this Bertrand made the reply as to the beneficial effects of physical chastisement on women and wives. In ans wer to further questions, he admitted locking up his wife while he ate his supper, though he said be didn’t keep her locked up forthree days. Then he got mad and denied having slapped his good-looking wife in the mouth two weeks after her confinement. lou did not know how your child was get- ting food all those seven years?“ ‘*‘I didn’t know whether she was getting any or not. ‘*‘Why didn’t you contribute toward its support?’’ „Because Iknew that if l gave anything it would be improperly applied. The answer exasperated the audience, whose sympathies were obviously with the badly used young mother, and the next answer did not serve to make them feel any more kindly towards the witness. J sent the child a present once, and its motber raised Cain about it. „What was the present?“ asked the attor- ney, and when the answer, Cc as card,’’ was heard, aemile and a sneer passed round the court. Mr. McEntire thought it neediess to prolong the agony and sat down. Re-examination did not mend matters greatiy, andthe sentiment against Bertrand was Very strong. Yesterday morning MRS. BERTRAND NO. 2, who is attending court with her husband, having come from Perry County with bim, took the stand and expressed her willingness and anxiety to take the child in dispute and rdise her, and Mrs. Bertrand No. 1, wuo stood by listening, almost fell in a faint. Mr. Bertrand’s ease ended temporarily at the conclusion of his second wife’s testimony, Mr. T. A. Skinker, his attorney, not being able to secure two witnesses who are missing. Mrs. Max Bertrand, sister of Mrs. trand No. 1, whose husband is a brother of the plaintiff, was put on the stand yesterday forenoon and proved to bea very strong witness for her sister. One of the first questions asked her was about the rela- tions Mrs. Bertrand bore her husband, and she replied: ‘*As master and siave.’’ When asked to explain she said: „It, for instance, Lou was going from one room to another with the baby in one hand and a lamp in the other, Mr. Bertrand would ery out: ‘If 22 drop that lamp I'll smash your face.’ Whenthe baby was only a few days old he threw his wie down because she would not give the baby 9 and was aboutto strike her when Il came in the room and prevented him. She described another fight which occurred on Easter Sunday in 1883, when her sister re- turned home later iu the afternoon than she gald she would, She said herjsister came over to the house bleeding from the face and said her husband had knocked herdown and stamped on her. She fell in a faint on the bed, and while in that state the witness and her husdand went to Mr. Bertrand’s house and took the baby, which was also cut in the face and bleed- ing. When Mrs. Bertrand returned to the house next day he locked her in and kept her from herchild two days and two nights. She gave birth to another child not long after and itdied a few hours after birth. Mrs. Max Bertrand recited several otner incidents that Ber- occurred in her sister’s household, all of which were equally as brutal as those men- tioned. A number of witnesses were placed on the stand to show the characterof Mrs. Bertrand and which greatly helped bercase. After all the testamentary evidence was in Mr. McEntire read dapositions taken in Tennessee, which occupied the time of the court until o’clock, when it adjourned to Monday morn- ing. Mrs. Bertrand will take the stand in the morning in her own defense. Thomas Campbell's Will Construed. The will of Thomas Campbell was construed by Judge Valliant yesterday against the son, Thomas Campbeil, Jr. Thomas Campbell, Sr., died February 11. 1890, and gave his two chiliren, Thomas Campbell and Evaline Howards, $leach. The balance of bis estate wus given to his grandchild. The son at- tempted to break the willand said he and his sister, Evaline, were the only children and the sole heirs tothe estate. Maud Howard, grandchild, is a daughter of pinintiff’s sister and lives at Branch, N. 0 Mr. Campbell ups she exerted an undue influence over her grandfather, and that he made the will when of unsound mind. As he did not prove the allegations to the satisfaction of the court Judge Valliant upheid the will and Maud will become sole possessor of her grandfather's State. Legal Notes.

CANDIDATES BFFORFE THE PEOPLE IN THE NEXT ELECTION, Flow Long Jones Was Bounced Out of the Boss Place on the Kepnblican State Committee—The Farmers Will Settie the Question of Party Supremacy—State News and Political Gossip. By Telegravh tothe Tosr- Oise ron. PRINGFIELD, III., June 28.—The Repub- lican State Conven- tion has been held and was largely at- tended. The job lot of harmony that had been so extensively advertised and the entire amount was disposed of before proceedings began. It had been extensively given out that this is the farmers’ year, and that this was to be a farmers’ convention, but when the time came the farmer found he wasn’tinit. While Judge Lindley’s contract with Senator Crawford of Uhicagoto manage his campaign for him may have been a very high-priced one, it did not show results. The people of the State allowed themselves to be controlled by the gang of Cook County politicians. The farmers were snubbed by rejecting the head of the principal organ!- zation among the agrleulturists of the State, and a man certainly as well qualified as any one inthe field. They preferred a man for State Treasurer who has lived by politics ever since he came totbis country and who has become rich by the schemes of Chicago poll- ticians. The Republican party is as usual stuck onaGermanfor State Treasurer, and Amberg could just as well have been nom!- nated on the firat ballot, but for the sake of policy it was thought best to delay it until the second. This was not, as has been seen, a Tanner convention, nor a Fifer nora Cullom convention, but the ear- marks show very piainly that Congressman Joe Cannon has been having something to say. LONG JONES BOUNCED. The most violent outbreak, where hostility was the most hostile, was in the meeting of the Sixth Congressional District, and Long Jones, who for many years was Chairman and Director-General of the State Central Com- mittee, found thata formidable job had been put upon him and resulted in bouncing bim unceremoniously out of the committee. Hon. George Haskell of Freeport, resident of the State Board of Agricultare, was one of the men who had become tired of trying to locate Long Jones. It is said that he lives in Chicago, makes different kinds of water at the mineral springs at Waukesha, Wis., and claims a residence in Jo Davies County, III. The people decided upon a man from the Sixth District jn 1 to one who was no longeraresident. Haskell suc- ceeded in downing Jones in bis ight against the renomination of Congressman Hitt and scored a victory m electing Geo. 8. Roper, his fellow-townswan, over Jones, as member of the State Central Committee and received a vote of thanks from his district. But the wily Jones was not to beso easily disposed of. The convention ignored the p as well as the 3 scheme, e KO * lution to the effect that he ought to be nized on the State Central Committee.

In conversation with the Hon. E. A. Sniveiy, Clerk of the Supreme Court, one of the best postad politicians in the State, that gentleman expressed the belief that Mr. Raab will be elected Superintendent of Public In- struction by 20,000 majority. This is an vi- dence of faith in the Democratic party. The convention threw a trifle of sop to the Irish voters by nominating Irishmen for Clerk of the Supreme and Appellate Courts in the central grand division, where there is a Demvucratic majority of over 8,000 In the dis- trict. Southern Illinois was absolutely and totally ignored, not only as tothe two main candidates but also as to the trustees of the University of lijinols. This too, in the face of the fact that Southern Illinois furnished all the substantial gains last year. THE PLATFORM. The Committee on Resoiutions wrangled all, day long, and came out with a mess of gilt- tering weneralities as a result. Those of them who are possessed of the slightest degree of honor acknowledge their humiliation dy the manner in which the platform falls down on the subject of compnisory education. They have ewphatically taken water, and joined in with the Democrats, letter for letter. For a yearand a half they have pounded away on the argument that the compulsory education law was right, and abusing, to the extent of their ability, eyery one who differed from their opinion, and accusing their op ponents of being opposed to the education of children. They now turn tail, join in with the Democrats and ask that the law be repealed. God bless us, what consistency! And not only this, they actually renominate the original autuor of the bill for Superintendent of Public Instruction! Was a party ever more com- pletely checkmated by its own ivolish moves? THE SITUATION. The farmers ot lilinois for years have been clamoring fora candidate. his candidate is now presented to them in the person of Judge E. S. Wilson of Olney, „man against who not even the most radicalaund unreasonable Republican can speak III. A man who has the actual record of an agriculiturist as well as the finest qualifications for the voffice of Treas- urer ofthe State of I‘iinois. Now, if all the talk of the farmers is honest talk they will stand solid and elect Judge Wilson. If they tall, let them henceforth hold their peace, Succees depends entirely upon the tenacity of the agricultural element to hold together, both Democrats and Republicans. From past experience with the movements of the Grungers and Greenbackers, politicians say they have roason to believe that the present movement by the Farmers’ Mutual Benefit Association and the Farmers’ Ailiance is Dus another musuroom affair; that a candi- date bora of 4 farmers’ move- ment seems to be of a (few and full of trouble, but if the resolutions passed ata meeting heid bere some time ago count for oe then they must stand shoulder to shoulder and vote solidly for Judge Wilson. And it remains to be seen in November next whether the farmers mean what they say and will live up to their declar- ations. * HE HUSTLED HOME. The rumor to the effect that the Rev.

It seems Brather incongruous to see an actor dressed in a heavy fur overcoat and seaiskin bat, fanning himself vigorously, while the perspiration pours down his face, The Cave was well patronized, the orchestra is an ex- cellent one and each member appears to vie with the other to createa good impression. The principals have touched popular favor andit seems as though summer opera was going to be patronized this season. Summer opera is something which should and is favored by 88. Loulsans. There is nothing more pleasant of a summer evening than to sit in a cool, breezy place and listen to the music of a pretty opera. 86. Louis has two places of amusement which last season were both very successful. ‘‘Said Pasha.“ as Schnaider’s garden, bad a run which was flattering both to the author of the piece and to the management in a financial way. At Uhrig’s Cave a remarkably stccessful run of business was also had. It is possible that Sald Pasha’’ will be produced at the Cave this season by Dixon & Bell, and it would undoubtedly have another successful run. It is entirely too pretty an opera to be sheived,and in consideration of the difficulties under which the now defunct Krellng opera company labored in the West, the opera could undoubtedly be procured for the Cave. The entire score with allthe words and the speaking parts is in possession of a resident of this city, and overtures have been madeto Dixon & Bell to produce it. They will probably put it on later in the season. Next week ‘*Amorita’’ will be produced at the Cave. The costumes are light and airy, belng therefore suitabie for summer wear, and the singers can do their parts in comfort. Schnunaider’s Garden will probably open next week with a first-class opera company. The management is making active preparations and this popular place of amusemeat will un- doubtediy receive a well deserved patronage. **aMORITA.’’ The cast for ‘*Amorita’’ is as follows: Fra Bombarda... 2... „Mr. Harr * Lorme Castrucci (a furrier) . „Mr. Geo.

The management of Uhrig’s Cave is en- gieavoring to secure the services of Louise Natalie, now in New York. This sweet singer would undoubtedly be a strong at- traction and itis to be hoped that the over- tures which are being made for her engage- ment will be successful. The management of the Oave evidentiy desires to please the public. At The Pickwick. Pickwick Theater was crowded Friday even- ing on the occasion of the testimonial per- mance which was given Clarence Hughes, a St. Louis boy who is anxious to achieve fame on the stage. «Freezing a Mother-in-Law’’ and ‘‘Delicate Ground, two light comedies, were produced by the compauy in an excellent maaner. Mr. Hughes shows a decided talenton the amateur stage, which warrants the belief that ne will be successful in the profession. He attracted the attention of Cora ‘Tanner's manager recently aud theresuit of asubse- quent meeting wasthe signing of a contracf mak, ny Mr. Hughes a member of Miss Tan- ner’s company next season. The performance last night waswell rendered. Mr. Hughes answered the expectation of his friends, who liberally applauded his success. Messrs. Caroline, Williams, Schollmever aud Langton, and Misses Alphouse, Williams and Mitchell acted creditably and were well re- ceived. Mr. Hughes isa son of Dr. C. H. Hughes, the well-known neurologist. Dramatic Notes. „A Fair Rebei’’ will be one of the novelties of next season. *‘Casties in the Alr““ is doing exceedingly wellin New York. : Mme. Fernandez is the ‘‘mother’’ of a score of pretty young actresses. Alexander Saivini Will make a starring tour of the country next season. Mrs. Rackin has already tad three offers of a staring tour in her play Sara. Rose Coghian goes to Europe shortly for a brief visit to old friends in England.

The market opened at IId bid, and it at once became evident tnat large selling orders were out; 400 shares sold at 11% and 300 at II, from which the price declined to lob. and 30v shares changed hands at 10. Buyers and seliers were plenty and sales were large, over 5,000 shares changing hands, the market closing at 10 bid, Ih asked. 5 * Mickey Breen was in strong demand, and advanced in price. Trading apened at $1, 80, at which 100 shares were sold, and more was wanted. An offer to sell 1,000 shares at $1.324 was then made, and quickly accepted, this being the largest transfer wade for some time past. The work on the mi is progressing rapidly.

WIII Carr aud brothers, own- ers of the paper, baye made arrangements to engage in the printing business at Colorado Springs, Oolo., and will remove there. This leaves Knobnoster without a newspaper. There will not be a sufficient number of lawyers inthe Lower House of the General Assembly to make up the Judiciary, Uriminal Jurisprudence and Courts of Reeord Commit- tees, unless supplied by the Republicans or by St. Louis, Kanes City and St. Joseph. John J.

Judge Nosh M. Given of Cass County is a candidate for the Congressional nomination in the Twelfth District. Judge Given was until recently aresident of &t. Louis. The other candidates are Morgan Ladue Grantiy and possibly the present member, W. J. Stone. The Democrats of Nodaway County have secured Mills and Breckinridge to speak at Maryville on July 16. talking of getting Senator Ingalls some time later to follow them. The campaign in Mis- souri this year will be one of brains and not of money. The Doniphan Prospect- News maked the charge and substantiates it by comparison, that Congressman Waiker’s tariff speech, of which much has been std and written by bis friends isa gross plaxiarism of Gladstone's article on the tariff ip a recent number of the North American Review. Josiah Anthony of Madison County will, shonid Jasper Burks conciude to resign as Grain Inspector and run for the Senate, which is not likely, be appointed to the position. Mr, Authony is very near to Commissioner Hickman and is said to be very friendly with Commissioner Hennessy. John F. Stearlock is nominated for the Levislature by the Farmers and Labor Union of St. Genevieve County and Jules Detgch- mendy, late of St. Louis, for Sheriff. Mur. Sheariock is also the Democratic nominee and is a farmer. He succeeds Col. H. J. Shaw, one of the lesders of the last House. W. K. Grage and Thomas H.

Waste of Power in Setting Trains in Motion, and How it Can be Overceme by the Ap- plication of Electricity—-Detatls of the Scheme-—General Electrical Gossip. LECTRICITY is of the utmost value to railreads, Witheus the wire it would be nearly impossible to manage the im- mense number of trains that are dally passing over the a lines lu ali parts of aa af the world, and acci- dents would be un- syoidable. So far, howeyer, there has been little effort made to apply electricity directly to the work of moving trains. Various elec- trical motors have been devised, but none have Proved satisfactory, and there would seem to be no probability of the steam locomotive being displaced by the electric engine. At the recent meeting ofthe railway telegraph superintendente at Niagara Falle a scheme was proposed by which t e efficiency of the locomotive could be greatly increased by the use of an electrical appliance. THE PROPOSED ADDITION to the equipment of the railroads has been examined by a number of competent railroad men and bas met with much favor. From competent authorities on motive power it has been determined that a locomo- tive, having a weight of 100,000 pounds, has a tractive power upon the rail when in best condition of but 25,000 pounds. And when the rail, by reason of the weather, is in bad con- dition, the tractive power amounts to only about what an engine of 15,000 pounds’ weight shouid haye. In other words, on good rail, by non-adhesion, the locomotive gives but 25 per cent and on bad rail but 18 per cent of the ower which, theoretically, should be bad rom it. THE INITIAL MOVEMENT. Efforts were nade some fifieen years ago, by an Englishman named Wederman, to over- come the non-adhesion, by winding the epokes of the — die: g wheela with wire, thug making a magnet of the wheel, withthe view of attracting, by magnetism, the wheel to the rail, thus increasing the friction, and, tnere- by, the adhesion to the railon the part of the locowetive. Having but a primary battery, it is plain to be seen that the results were so Blight as to be hardly appre- clable, There was another objection, even had the dynamo been used. In order to se- cure sufficient magnetism to be of benefit upon such an immense machine asa loco- motive the maynets would have to be very large, and the winding upon the spoles of the Crivers would have necessitated a change in the construction of the engine, 0 that as the bobbin was revolved by the wheels there would be room to clear the firebox on the inside and the side-rods of the locomotive on the outside. This, of course, would render necessary a longer crank pin for the bars, and, being longer, it must necessarily de stouter in order to atand the increased leverage. A device ef this character, therefore, for the locomotive engine would not be economical, and would necessitate the reconstruction of all locomo- tives using it, This inventor filed patents in this country and several others followed in his footateps, but nothing prectical has yet been evoived from that method. Recently un American inventor, the paper continued, secured letters pateut upon his method of increasing the adhesion of the lo- comotive to the rail by the use of electricity and he took a wide departure from the path pursued by former inventors. The inventor proceeded upon the hypothesis that an elec- tric current of large volume, if properly em- ployed, could be used to weld metals. Acting upon this theory. he proposes to arrange upon a locomotive a dynamo of sufficient power to be run by a smali auxiliary engine, and to passa the current from the dynamo to the driy- ing wheel of the engine along the rail to the nextdriving wheel, ite axle an the other wheel to ihe Other ral and back to the first driver thence tothe dynamo, thus making 3 local circuit, so to speak, which would travel with the locomotive, nassing a current through the drivers and along the ralis as indicated. For this purpose, by a very simple method, he insulates one pair of the driving wheels. hy this means the Inventor proposes to cause an incipient weld betweenthe driving wheels and the rails. I say inciplent because the wheels, being In motion, the weld, ifany, is being made and by the revolution of the wheels, tuerefore aperfect weldis not at- tained; nor, of course, would it be desirable except tor brake purposes, as in descending a grade for instance. If THE THEORY ADVANCED can be made a success, practicail,, it means great many things to the railroad world. it by means of this invention the tractive power ofa locomotive is increased, say even 26 per cent, it means ten additional carson a forty- cartrain. It means a large gain in the haul- It means imcreased speed for passenger trains. is means a saving, indirectly, of fuel. It means the employment of lighter locomotives to do the same amount of work as the heavier ones, thus delng easier on the road-beds and bridges. If means the mounting of grades that would not be considered possible atthe presenttime. Ail this provided that In practice on @ locomotive the theories ad- vanced shall not hold goed, Another feature of this invegtion is that it is not necessary to Keep the current fowing all the time unless you need It, but when the train is stopped, the locomotive at that time not being in mo- tion, amore perfect weld is obtained, thus enabling it to start at once witheut slipping, and after the train ig under headwuy tie current, If desired, may be g@witehed aff. do much for the pulling power and se much fer the mator. throughs Electrical Kchoen, The telegrapher is likely to be an honest man; yet he gets his living on tick.

The new fegulations for the use of electric light came into operation on March 1, 1837, and since then the number of vessele travel ing by night has increased remarkably.

Two Records Broken at Washington Park, Chicago—Tenny’s Exercise Canter Wins at Sheepshead—Estries for Menday at Sporting Matters. ; | HE races at the Jockey Club track yesterday were obaracterized by large flelds, but the at- tandance was not what it should be. So many horses were entered im the first event that it wae found neces- sary to Split it in two so that there were really eix races on the enrd instead of five. Ciem Creveling man- aced to start all the norses, but ex- cept in the last 3 ö race, which was — 2 a splendid start, the horses were sent away in process ions. A horse owned by Jockey Richardson was not per- mitted to start lu the last race, as Richardson is under suspension. The last race was the prettiest contest of the day. The result of most ot the races depended entirely on the ptart. As a rule the horse which was sent away in the lead finisbed the winner. How- ever, Mr. Creveling had difficult feldes to bandle and there was some excuse for the poor starts. FIRST RACE. Purse , five furlongs. Cedar Grove tables bik. g.

It was not as great a performance as the latter’s, because Teuton only carried 113 pounds, as against Terra Cotta’s 124, but it is now the record. run of Los Angeles through the straight under Monk Overton's masterly finishing was enough to set everyone's pulse beating.

Fw elegranh to the Poer-DisPatTcr. SHEEPSHEAD Bay, June 28.—The fact that Tenny was named as a starter in the first race, coupled with the June Spendthrift stakes and Knickerbocker handicap proved a great drawing card for Sheepshead, and the stand and lawns were crowed by. the time ther horses went to the post for the first race. In Tenny’s race there were nineteen entries, but when it was known tbat the littie sway- back was going to start owners began to scratch, and the field was soon reduced to elaht. Tenny was barred in most of the books, and the price against him wus 1 to 10. It was nothing more thaa a good gallon for him, notwithstanding the fact that the time was made fast.

A number of the liste which bave been placed in the various cycie agencies sbow a great many names of intending participants, but by far the greater number contain ut few whee!- men’s autographs. nly one thing is needed to insure a complete success of the meet, and that is the active co-operation of city wheei- men generally.

With the race meeting at Columbia on the 4th and the district championships, Which will be contested at Compton Avenue Park Satur- duy, July 12, our local racing men will have their bands full, and so general bas the in- terest become that but little else is spoken of at the clubs. The only thing that can militate against the meeting from being the biggest thing of the kind ever seen in St. Louls will be the giving rein to personal feelings that have done 80 much barminthe past. Chicago intends to scoop allthe events and will have her best mendown. Cleveland, Detroit, Peoria and Cincinnati will also be represented and with fair weather the races wil! zo on record as being the most hotly contested in Western cycling annals. Cycling Chat. R. W. Garner and Grant Pauley of Carthage are in town. A ladies’ bicycle club with a membership of fifteen bas been organized at Bridgeport, Oonn, The L. A. W. renewal seasen closes to-mor- row, June 30. No revewals will be received after that date. Chariey Kluge will soon make an attemptito make anew American 25-mile record over the Irvington course. Now that Greenwood has entered the out- come ofthe hili climbing contest at Columbia will be watched with interest. Thirty Kansas City men have already se- cured iooms at Columbia forthe meet. Capt. Ellia will have charge of this deleg ation. Work on the Louisiana Cycling Club’s house was becun recently. This will be the first club in the South to own its own quarters. The Cycling Club held a meeting at their clab house last night and perfected arrange ments for attending the State meet in a body. Thelr new uniforms will be worn on this oc- casion. Runs to-day: Cycling Club will wo to Fen- ton, starting at8:30a.m.,ebarp. Bathing in the Meramec is one of the features. The Missouris will run to Ballwin, starting at 8 a. m., sharp. Applicants for L. A. W. membership from Missouri numbered nine last week. Gallatin, Kirksville, Kansas City and Moperly contrib- uted one each; Golden City, two, and St. Louis, three—A. Hollister, Frank Starke and F. W. Seager. ‘*‘Who willl be the one-mile champion of Missouri?’’ ie the subject at present agitating a number of rising men of this city, and this event alone promises to take many people to Columbia to witness the contest. All the best men in the State have entered. Chairman Davol of the L. A. W. Racing Board last week put down his foot hard and suspended nearly a dozen Denver amateurs for competing with professionals in a team road race. The league has long shut its eyes to this evil, Dut it will nov bea thing of the past. A final meeting of ail the club officers, dealers and cyclists holding lists of partici- pants to the State meet will be held at Geo. W ilder’s office to-morrow evening at So clock sharp, to make final arrangements for at- tending the meet. As matters of great impor- tance will come up, a large attendance is requested. Six ladies have applied for membership in the Cycling Club and their applicat.ons wil! be ncted upon at the next meeting of the club. The great increase in the number of lady rid- ers in this city has induced the members to make extra efforts to bring them into the club where they will enjey all the privileges of male members, and luesday night is especial- ly set apart for them. One of the prettiest menu cards ever issued for a cyclists’ banquet has been gotten up by Jas. H. Moss for the banquet at Columbia, and it will no doubt be higbly prizedasa souvenir of the meet. It lo of russet leather and con- tainsa pocket for an L. A. W. membership card. Ontheinside appears the menu and the list of toasts, which wiil be responded to by T. H. MeNei of Kansas City, C. H. Stone and Robt. Holm of St. Louis, H. C. Penn of Columbia, W. A. Rothwell of Moberly and 6. L. Henderson of Kansas City. Walter Wiil- lame of Columbia will act as toastmaster. There is a charm about night-riding over that of riding in the full light of the sun that is undoubted. I could fill pages on the sen- sation induced by cycling by moonlight, or even starlight. The reads always seem smoother to me, the wanes objects seem to fiy by more rapidly. and the grades do not seem nearly as steepand hard to climb as in the daytime. If, perchance, your mountisa tandem, and if, again, perchance, your com- panionuis not of the masculine persuasion, then, indeed, you must beastoic if you do not enthuse over riding by mooniizhnt.—[(C.

Many people supposed the fight between Lew McGregor, the St. Joe Kid, and F. J. Pitzlin, would take place last night, but it did not. Pitzln and Mike Mooney of the Missouri Gymnaeium, gave apn excursion to-day . to Alton on the steamer Altonian, in which they are to give exhibitions of sparring, wrestling, ete. There are people who think the prize-fighting party will go up on that excursion, but the chances are the men will not meet before Monday or Tuesday night,and they may fight right inside the city instead of at Alton. McAuliffe and Slavin Matched. Special Cablegram to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, June 28.—Joe McAuliffe and Frank Slavin, acting under the auspices of Lord Lonsdale, -bave entered into contracts for a match for $4,000. Of this amount $500 will be awarded to the loser. The Ist of October has been selected as the date for the fight. Athietic Notes. George Riddle is a great favorite with the St. Louis audiences. The M. A. A. C. meeting last Sunday was a success In every respect. Entries for the handicap events will remain open until to-morrow night. Bob Leacock did a very meritorious per- formanee in the mile last Sunday. Al Hitching’s victory in the 100 yards for the gold watch was avery popular one. In Skillmger the Wanderers have a very promising sprinter. He is only 19 years old. The Scottish Clans on July 4 is the next big event on the card. The prizes are very handsome. Skiilman’s time in the mile last Sunday Is liable to stand as the Western record for some time. If Wawerzinorski would only change his name he would be guite popular with the audiences. Luther Oary, Owens and Jéwett of Detroit will meet in the 100-yards run at the Wander- ers’ games on July 4. Pete Skiilman’s performance in the mile beat anything ever seen in St. Louis, eltner amateur or professional. Hed it not been for the extreme beat there would bave been an immonee crowd at Broth- erhood Park last Sunday. Herman Wieneke is doing great work with the pole. It would not be much ofa surprise to see him clear eleven feet. The M. A. A. C. promised the athletic pub- lic the best meeting ever held in St. Louls, and the club kept its promise. It is not often that three men finish inside the record. Yet this would have been the casein the mile last Sunday had Leacock finished. The directors of the M. A. A. C. wish to ex- press theirthanks tothe officers and mem- bers of the Olympic Club for the many courte- sies extended them last Sunday. Hammer throwing le now all the rage among the Olympies. Athletes who could never beat 79 feet before Mr. Riddle came down from Chicago are now throwing 90 feet and more. Geo. F. Powell, the A. A. U. and W. 4. A. A. champion high jumper, has been sojourn- ing in Baltimore for the past two weeks. He will return in time to take part in the Scottish Clans games. The bicycle race In the M. A. A. C. games last Sunday proved one of the most interest- Ing evente in the programme. No athietic meeting is complete without a couple of cycling events. Harry Young, the manager of the base ball department of the Olympics, will be on hand this morning to take the names of those mem- bers who wish to play on the reguiar team.

MACON, Mo., June 28.—Monday last Shiver- all Kent of Walnut Township, Adair County, was attacked with hydrophobia. He was bit- ten by his own dog some time In February on the left arm and wrist. The animal has been acting strangely, but after biting him he had it killed without walting to determine whether it was aiflicted with rabies. He be came quite warm whiie at work and was seized with violent paroxysms, which contin- ued up to yesterday, when death put an end to his sufferings. Three physicians attended him and at least a dozen more visited him during his Niness. All pronounced it a Case of genuine bydrophobia. In this they are supported by the fact that a cat and dog bit- ten — 4 the same animal went mad and were killed some time ago. It Is a Fact.
