LONDON, Aug. 8. WEDEN has been of- fered atempting Dalit. It le generally believed here that the Emperor of Germany did pro- pose to the King of Sweden, at their recent mecting, that, in the event of a Russian war, Sweden should join ? @ith Germany and be rewarded by the erec- Mon of a new Scandinavian empire, with ; Stockholm as the capital. Russia bas been Sranéhing out within the past two years as a Raval power, and Germany has good reason to be jeatous of Russian influence on the Balt io. With Finland re-united to Sweden, the coasts Of the Baltic would be controlled by Sweden and Germany, for Denmark’s rivalry would @mount to but little. United Sweden and Norway form to-day the largest dominion in Europe, excépt Russia, and with Finland mdded would be imperial In extent. WOULD NOT INCLUDE DENMARK. The talk about Denmark’s joiming such an Smpire te idie, forthe Swedes and Daune are as Opposed to each other as the French and Btalians. The Emperor of Germany fe said to Dave spoken, while in Norway, of the debt of @ratitude which his house owed to the Swedes forsaving the Northern States of Germany from the grasp of Austria, when the Protest- ant States were threatened with destraction by the Catholic League, and to have expressed a desire, now that Germany wae powerful, to prove that the Hohenzollerns were not un- @fateful. It is interesting in this connection that the Russian maneuver, beginning next week, will take place almost on the spot where,’ in the year 170, Charies XII., with 6,000 Swedes, defeated 80,000 Russians, winning bis first great victory and astonishing Europe. WILHELM’4 TOUR. The German Emperor will arrive at Reval in the night between the 16th and 17th of August, and in the early morning will continue his journey by railto Narva. The Austrian Arch- duke Karl Ladwig is also cxpected to arrive in St. Petersburg on the l7th, and the following day the birthday of the Austrian Emperor will be @élebrated at the Imperial Camp near Narva. The maneuvers wilYbexin on the 19th and Will conclude with a grand review on the 24th. Chancelior Von Caprivi will accompany the Emperor of Germany, and the tatter has intiwated that the Archduke Carl Ludwig must be present with him at any discussion of & political tendency, the object being to show Germany's fidelity to the Austrian Alliance. There is no doubt that the Russians will en- dgeavortoimprove the Imperial visit by try- ing to win Germany over to the Czar's views about Bulgaria, but the task is regarded as — LIBERTY IN FINLAND. ' The iron of Russian depotism is beginning to enter the souls ot the Finns. For tue frst time since Finland became subject to the Czar the Russian censors. have assumed jurisdic- tion over the press of the country, and one of the newspapers has been warned to moderate its tone in defense of Finnish rights and liber- ties, The emigration from Finland is increas- ing, and the people who remain are looking hopefully for a European war to deHver them from Russian thraidem. The Freyeh, at least, seem to accept as wel! founded the reports that the Emperor of Ger- many hus concluded un alliance with Belgium, CMientive and defensive, and have asked for av explanation at Brussels. There is probably no ground for the statement that Sweden has entered into alliance with Bel- gium and Germany, although the Swedes are So ¢ @irly committed to any side that attacks Russia that inthe event of war they would wndoubtedly side with Germany. — 200,000 MEN OUT, The West of England Strike—seldiers’ Grievances—Lenuder Topics. ON DON. Aug. 9.— As an offset to the New York Centra), Eusland is agi- tated to-night with a strike ip the West of Fu- gland which throws 200,000 men out of work, inelading miners, raliread men and dockers, who are all supporting a grievance on the part ot the miners, whose demands are ten hours’ work aday, or a week of sixty bouts, overtime up to eight hours to be time and a quarter and Sanda work to be paid as time and a half, Wo trains bave been ruoning on the Great Western for three days, The post-office is sending mall by coaches. There is no hope ot a compromise. ; . To-day the railway men handed in the @ompany uniforms and received the wages Se te them. So far there are noaigns of Tae, but few of the men have gone Dack to work. Expressions of sympathy have received from all parts of the kingdom.

' SOLDIERS’ GRIEVANCES. | These dispatéhes have 80 fully stated the | extent and nature of grievances in the Britis * army thut tt le needless to recapitulate statements in view of the recent outpreak at Chatham. The simple fact is that the men are enlisted under false pretenses, both as to pay and treatment, and naturally feel sore afterwards. While the Gévernment is adopt- feg a more liberal policy toward policemen, postmen and telegraph operators, the soldiers thisk that they snould not be forgotten, and thatthe least that can be done would be to pay them the shilling a day promised at enlist- mon witnout deduction for clothing and rations, and te issen the severity of the drilling at home stations, whieh makes for- ien service, even. in time of war, an abso- lute relief. The officers do not keepin sum élent touch with thé mea and are unawere of conditions whieh should be known to them at feast long enough to be Bangs. The fact that so few veterans re enlist le evidence that army seryice is losing its pogplarity. The recent military mutinies and wholesale desertions from the army and navy bave im- peiled the newspapers of every shade of po- litical Opinion to demand that the Govern- ment shall investigate and redress the griev- aneoes of the men in every branch otf the service. This, they de- Clare, is absolutely necessary in order to avert a serious crisis which is abundaatly foreshadowed by the general discontent man- frested in nearly every one of the public de- partments, and whichis undeniably the re- sult of the tyrany practiced by those in au- thority. It is altofether likely that the Government will heed the warning and take immediate measures to remove the disturb- lag causes. MOVED TO MERRIMERT. The English are moved to merriment at the great importance attached to Heligoland by Germany. For the administration of affairs On that barren rock tue German Government has appointed a civil governor, a military governor and anaval commander, cach with a retinue befitting bis lofty station. SOCIBTY OF SOULS. The society column of Land and Water, pub- Hahed to-day, discusses the mew social fad under the name of the ‘‘S5ociety of Souls, of which it says Mrs. Henry White, wife of the First Secretary of the United States Legation, is the chief prophetess. So far as can be gathered, individuals of different sexes, not withstanding matrimonial conventional ob- stacles, can, under its auspices, spend bouts hand-to-hand in the clesest union without the risk of compromising their fair names. THE LONDON CONSERVATIVE PARTY. An endeavor will be made at Conservative headquarters during the recess of Parliament to improve the Conservative organization of London, which is notoriousiy bad and com- pares very unfavorably in mary constituen- cles with the organization of the Liberal par- ty. That the loss of some seats which were won by the Tories at the last election is inevitable is conceded,+ but there are other shaky seats which it is de- lieved would have been tolerably safe but for the neglect of the sitting members and the apathy of the local committees. London Conservatism, as a rule, has a distinctly democratic flavor, and in the opinion of sev- eral London members sitting on Ministerial benches the Government has not gained much from the hostility shown in certain Conservative quarters toward the County Council, or fromthe recent trouble with the police and the postmen. In view of the gen- eral election which, ian spite of Mr. Balfour’s reassuring prophecies, is still regarded in official circles as a practical certainty for next year, a strong effort is to be made to strength- en the weak points during the recess. A VAST EMPIRE. An ineident before the Privy Counell this week illustrates the extent of Britain“ Em- pire and the vastness of the interesés centered in the halls of Westminster. The heirs of the once mighty King of Oude were defendants in a suit by creditors whe sought to attach the pension paid them by the Indian Government. The Privy Council decided that the pension was exempt from attachment, In connection with India it may be mentioned that a powerful movement Is on foot among the more intelligent of the population se put a stop to the evils of child marriage. One of the worst forms of girl marriage in India is kKnowa as ‘‘marrying girls to the gods, which means slavery of body and soul to the priests, great numbers of whom live upon the immorality of thelz girl wives. Hundred of thousands of chi- dren of the ages of 12 and 15 are wives and mothers in India, The educated and intelll- gent natives of Madras are in favor of fixing the age of marriage at M years. BARBERS AS REFORMERS. Barbers have not usually been noted as re- formers, but in Bombay, India, the barbers have solemnly joined in a pledge not to shave the heads of widows. This means a great deal, for the shaved bead is the sign of the woman doomed to per- petual widowhood. Her ‘‘husband’’ may bave died when she was a babeinarms, for infants are pledged in marriage io that coun- try, bat she must remain a widow all her life, and the shorn poll is the evidence of her con- dition. The barbers’ refusal to shave the heads of females under such circumstances is therefore a protest against aninhbuman and cruel custom, upheld by the strongest preju- dices, and the wiciders ofthe razor have, therefore, been subjected to much perse eu- tion, but they hold their own, nevertheless, with a fortitude that deserves to be com- mended. SHADOWED BY CONSTABLES. Lady Winfred Robinson was shadowed by constables on a recent visit to Armagh, in Iréland,. She made a complaint at the police barracks, when the fact of the shadowing was denieds The espionage of the polices extends even to parties of ladies and chfidren visiting the 6A ehore, whe are watched by constables with ed bayonets. Outrages continue ja the southern districts of Ireland. A man named Michael Doyle sur- rendered himself to a soldier of the Yorkshire Light Infantry at Gosport, aécusing hinieetf of the murder of aman who had refused to join the league. During the last quarter there have been fifty-three cases of intimidation by threatening letters and notices, according to the police reports, fifteen cases of imjury to property, and fourteen of firing to dwellings: MANSION-HOUSE BANQUET. oo oe to the Ministers atthe Man- sion-house this week marke the close of the session and the season.

ESSIMISTS declare that the strained rela- tions between Turkey and Serviaas indicated by the second sote of | the latter Government to the Porte with reter- ence to the murder of M. Marinkovitch, the » Servian Consul at Pris- tint will yet cause war , 22 the East. The only - * satisfaction offered by ZZ the Porte consisted of a , salute of tne Serviah consular flag bya party of Turkish soldiers. This is regarded bythe Servian Government as totally tmadequate. There is, how- ever, another cause of dissatisfaction. The Porte has lately lent itself with peculiar complacéncy.to the wishes of the Buigarian Government. Without inany way committing itself in regard to the Bulgarian Independ- ence,the Porte bas appointed three Bulgarian ecclesiastics to as many vacant sees in Mace- donia. The @istricte in which the Bulgarian Church thus finde its baud strengthened form part of a region long theoretically in dispute between Servians and Bulgarians. Bach of the two nations hepe im the final division of what is left of Turkey in Europe to obtain a large share of Macedohia, but the bishoprics lie in old Servia, which the Servians not unnatur- ally regard as reserved for themselves. They are therefore exasperated by the extension of Bulgarian influence over what they consider to be their own patrimony. The fact seems to be that the Bulgarian statesmen have man- aged their diplomacy as they previously man- aged their war, better than their Servian neighbors. PROCESS OF DEGENPRATION. Apart, however, from these quarrels, there fs every reason to look with apprehension upon the conditiow of the Balkan States. The process of degeneration in the Turkish Em- pire has continued of late years with rapidity. The proverbial inability of the Porte to main- tain order manifests itself with greater fre- quenmey every year. At the present moment the Sultan has to send an armed force to Albania in order to prevent the Prince of Montenegro from taking into his own hands the police of a district .just outelde the Montenegrin border. The crisis ip only Gelayed by the deterniination of the Powers not to allow the beginning of any dis- turbance that might develop into a EHuro- pean quarrel. But, aside from the condition of the European provinces, the accounts now peosived almost daily from Armenia and other regions sufficiently show that the inevitable dissolution of Turkey te approaching fast.

ONDON, Aug -The yisit of the Emperor ‘William bas been a purely family affair. It mas been so agrecabic to him that he post- poned his departure for twenty-four hours, but it is hinted thata desire to reach Heligoland ata timely moment bas mingted , with his amiable disposition to prolong hia stay. The Emperor has kept his eyes open while here. Hie principal attention outside of Osborne House has deen given to things military and naval. It is mortifying to Englishmen that two mili- tary mutimies have oecurred during his stay, which cannot have given him a favorable im- pression of the state of discipline in the British army. Such things are unksaown in Germany and must have struck him with as- ton lahment. His presence, however, has tended to strengthen the relations be tween England and Germany, which could only be to thé advantage of peace. While the rumors of England’s join- ing the Triple Alliance are idle creations of the newspapers, there is doubt that the pieas- ant and cofdial intercourse between the Brit- ish Court and the German Emperor, with the happy conclusion of the African compact, binds England and Germany closer than ever, carrying to fruition the peliey that Lord Salis- bury has cautiously but firmly fellowed from the beginning. The Emperor will land on Heligoland to- morrow, where he will meet Minister Herr- furth and the German Commissioners, who to-day look over the island, and quietly cele- brate his first acquisition of territory for the empire. The circumstance bas a deep signifi- cance forthe German race and is most aus- picious for the young monarch. THE DVUN Los. Hunger Piayed an Impertant Part in Eficct- ing a Reconciliation. Special Cablegram te the Pest-Dispatch. UNDON, Aug. 7.— It is said that the reunion of Lord Duplo and his wife is not altogether due to mutual affection, and that his Lord- ship was really hungry for a good dinner when he sent up his card to Lady Dunlo in & Dublin hotel the other day. Bis father, the Earl of Olilancardy, who had begun the divorce suit witheut his sen's knowledge, cut off his allowance at ones upon the elose of the trial, and Dunlo was left with- out a penny and in debt. He borrowed money enough te follow Lady Dunloto Dublin, with the result stated. Her ladyship, who bas a tender heart, did not care to see her famish- ing Lord until he had eatisfied the inner man, and promptly sent him down a ten-pound note—-at least that was the amount that he changed an hour later in pay- ment for his dinner. Lady Dunlo 1s in receipt of an income from the estate large enough to support both herself and Lord Dunlo in good style, and the death of the invalid and irrita- ble Earl cannot be far off; when Lord Dunlo will take his place as a peer of the realm and hereditary legisiator. The tenants on the Irish estates of the Lari of Clancardy are said to be delighted with the result of the divorce sult, as the Earl isaharsh landlord. Lady Duplo will rank, as to beauty, with any lady of the peerage. Indeed, handsome peeresses are very few and far between in England just now. Meantime ber former lover, Weston, by whose name she used to be known, is await. ing his trial for forging her name, and will undoubtedly go to prisen for _—— long term. — — THE CENTRAL AMERICAN WAR.

The changes are exciting much comment here, especially in view of the frietion between Russia and the Porte, the Porte having as yet returned mo answer to the note from Russia, protesting axainst concessions to Bulgaria. AT THE PEOPLE's hXPENSE, A @Goed Time Enjoyed by the American Consuls at the Paris Conference. Special Cablegran to the Post-Dispatch. ARIS, Aug. 9.—Un- dcubtealy the Amer- ican Consuls who are here in conven- tion at the expense} of their Government are having a good fai time, bat the reason of their being here does not seem ap- parent. They are all living at swell hotels at the pense of the American tax- payers, getting good dinners with Minister Reed and others, at- tending the theaters in a body and: liberally patronizing the concert gardens. The osten- sible reason of the conference iz to discuss the best means of making customs laws work smoothly. The real object is to see how much money the Consuls can squeeze out of their offices since Blaine has become Secretary. of State. Before the profits ot foreign Consul- ships were much decreased under Bemecratic management. Politicians wao came here under Harrison expecting to coin fortunes were badly disappointed. Biaine allows several petty extortions from shippers that Bayard squeiched, but still the Consuls are not satisfied. Every precaution is taxen to keep the discussions of the conference from the newspapers unti] reported at Washington. Still the Consuls are baving a good time bere while Uncle Sam pays the piper. — — DRAMATIC, Chat About Plays and Pliayers—Americans Hemeward Bound. Special Cablegram to thé Post-Dispatch.

O., Aug. 9.— There was more than the usua; interest in the last Cabinet meet- ing. 7 Many of the members ef Con- gress who favor the reciprocity idea are anxious that some formal, direct and un- equivocal expres- sion shall come from he White House, thus giv- ing tun force te the argument already urged that the administration is in earnest in the enterprise of securing recipro- eal agreements with the South and Central American republics. it was thought that ,perhaps seme expression would follow the meeting of the Cabinet yesterday, but itis mow understood that while the matter was in 2 general way a subject ot Giscussion in the absence of Secretaries Biaine and Tracy no immediate action was contemplated. But an early expression will deubtiess be made from that quarter. As bas been already stated in these dispatehes, statistics bearing upon the subject are being prepared for the President’s consideration. Bamereus Scene in the Hore, Wasuineror, D. C., Aug. 9.—The House bear pit was in full blast to-day. Representa- tives Enloe of Tennessee and Rogers of Ar- kansas furnished mest ef the fun, but others participated, and the entire menagerie sup- plied a fair quality of spert to the speseely pled galleries. The trouble began when ntative Rogers insisted that there was — present when the journal came up for approval. A call of the House was or- dered. All the doors but those leading out of the lobby were thereupon closed and the Sergeant-at-Arms was instructed to bring absent members bar of , the House. Just o Mr. Enloe that he had pressing business that could not be n at the Senate end of the Capitol and he left his scat, through the lobby asd on- deavored to reach the corridor. The deor- keeper,George A. Miner, stood in the way and infermed Mr. Enioe that during the call of the House he would not be rinitted to ° Mr. Enloe demanded the authority of the door- keeper who promptly etated that he was act- ing under the instructions of Speaker Reed. Enloe then declared that be would pass at any suiting the action to rush for the door. The guardian of the lobby seized bim by the sleeve aed endeavored to restrain him, but Eualoe tore himself from the doorkeeper’s grasp and made good Als escape. He re- Turned shortiy, however, and entering the hall of the House proceeded to his seat, from which he demanded to be beard on a question of personal privilege. When the Speaker had been induced to listen to the plea, Mr. Banloe recited his grievance and declared that * subordinate of the House had laid violent hands oupen him. He then offered a resolutien providing that Geo. Miner, an. assistant door-keeper, be arrested and brought to the bar of the House to answer for a breach of the privileges of a member of the House in attempting to arrest Hon. B. A. Ealoe without authority of the law and in violation of the Constitution of the United States. Enloe then eniarged upon the outrage to which he bad been subjected, and ueted the Constitution and the rules ef the ouse im defense of his own action, deciaring that he wished to call the attention of the House and country te the method in which the House was being governed under the arbitrary action of the Speaker, by which aan * rights of the members were interfered with. Spence Reed here interrapted to call Mr. Enioe back to his seat. He declined to answer the question ef the gentieman from Tennessee as to whether he had issued the objectionable order, whereupon Mr. Enloe announced that the Speaker bad no more right to issue such an order than he had to order the execution of Mr. Rogers of Arkansas by the Kemmler process. Re- membering the daily tilts between the Speaker and the gentlewan from Arkan- ous, everybody laugbed at this sally. Mr. Enloe was fast losing temper, however, when Kepresentative Cannon inquired it he had really suffered injury at the bands of the doorkeeper. Hereplied: *‘He did not do me any — per Violence. If he dad 1 would have dealt with bim asI would have dealt with the man who issued the order. A shout of derision went up from the Repub- Hoan sideatthis reply, and Representative Cannon inguired with mock trepidation, „Where daes the gentleman from Tennessee bury his dead?’’ ‘ Speaker Reed then declared that the whole matter would be left to the House, whereupon Whitthorne of Tennessee A his —— n out. by securing a refer- ence ot his resolution te the Oommittee on ‘ Jad@iciary.

From what he bad learned ex-Mayor Davenport of Kansas City wonld net permit bis name to be used. Ex-Congressman Robert T. Van Horn, he said, had been asked to, accept the nom!- nation.

T., saying that the Chickasaw situation is serious and that there is great danger of an outbreak en the 13th inst. (the day of the election), on account of the disfranchisement of squaw men. In a communication to the President the Secretary to-day expresses the opinion that there is no great probs bility of an outbreak to such an extent as te require the imterferenice of troops, yet as a precaution he recommends that the Secretary of War be directed to have such troops as are at Fort Gibson in complete readiness to réspond to any order that may be necessary to suppress riot at the election. In reply to Agent Bennett s telegram the Secre- tary directs that ne request for the assistance of troops be made unless riots of a dangerous character actually break out.

C., Aug. 9.—The Senate metatl0 o’cleck, but & quorum was not se- cured until twenty minutes later. Mr. Black- burn gave notice that he would on Saturday, the 23d inst., ask to submit the cuteomary res- olations relative te the death of his late col- league, Mr. Beck, and ask the Senate at that time te coasider them. After Mr. Hear’s previous question resolu. tion had been referred to tae Committee on Rules, the tariff Dill was taken up, the ques- tien being on Mr. Butier’s amendment te re- duce the duty og Cotten ties to 35 per cent ad valorem. Mr. Vance ridiculed the claim that the farmer derived any benefit from the tariff. The manufacturer of woolen goods, he said, who got 75 per cent protection, said to the farmer: It you give me 75 per cent otec- tion on my weeolen goods against foreign manufacturers, I will give you 25 ceats per bushel om your wheatand 10 cents per bushel on your corn, against Eugland, that does not grow a busbel ef corn and does not grow one- fifth of the wheat tnat her people eat.’’ Mr. Vance declared that there was ne way in whieh the proposed increase of duty on cotton ties could de looked at that was defens- ible. The most deserving, because the most useful in a Commercial pelinat of view of all the agricultural products of the United States, was to be taxed to death in all the processes of its growth and production and was then taxed a farewell shet—as the bale left the Ein- house, 108 per cent on the ties that bound it. And this was done, not for the benefit of the American manufacturer of cotton ties, for there wers none, and not for the benefit of the Treasury, for the bill was one to reduce rev- enue, but out of pure ‘‘cussedness’’ and be- cause the Republican party had get se used to taxing things that they could not step. Mr. Turple addressed the Senate on the gen- oral subject of protection, which he compared to the subsidy and bounty system of the days of the Tudors. The pending bill, he said, falsely called a tariff bill, was, in its operative provisions highly prohibitory, making goods in. the protective lines non-dutiable because not importabie. it was a revival in form, substance, and eseence of the old Brit- ish letters patent of nobility im the darzest days of monarchic absolutem. It was auniversal tax levied upon persons, a burden upon all, forthe benefit of the incor- porated owners of machinery. The bill was called an act te reduce the revenue. The revenue that it would reduce would be the revenue of the farmer by lessening the price of his produce and by destroying his markets. It would reduce the revenue of the laborer, the mechanic, the artisan, by increasing his housebold expenses. It would reduce the revenue of all classes except a few capitalists engaged in private manufae- tures. t all the insensate falsehoods, Mr. Turpie declared, that Mammon had put into the meuth of monopoly, the one which de- clared that the so-called policy of protection was promotive tothe tmterest of e farmer was the least worthy of notice. Mr. Daniel followed with a speech on pre- in general and the of duty on cotton The roposed * increase cotton ties, he said, was chatacteristic ofthe relentless war which the Republican party was making upon the agrieultural in- dustries of the country. It did not intend to give to agriculture anythiig except a little sop here and there o placate the ignorant and te disguise the false intention at lurked under its sometime pleasing promises. The bill proposed to triple the oy on cotton ties, to take the duty off sugar, te reduce the ‘duty on rice, thus attacking three of the great industries of the South, while it at- tempted to delude the far ers of the West with increased duties on ley, Oats, rye and wheat. Forthe American farmers there was in the bill protection ‘wherever it would not protect, and there was no protection wherever it would, In the bill the Republican party was for free trade in nearly ever — oes would injure the farmers of the Us! ‘ tection imecrease particular. of hoop ties for hay, d gods, Ste., as well as cotton Mr. Plumb moved to uce tional duty on hoeps when baling yea an habe ne 2 voting aye; either occasion 15 nd 0 The Neuse. | Wasuincron, Aig. 9.—A quorum of the House was only secured this moraiag by pro- ing onder a call of the House.

It all depends, however, on that little clause to the observ- ing.’’ If one stops an instant to think, a biurred or biotted address suggests that the writer must nave a good deal of don't are“ in his make. ifthe contrary were the Case and an accidental blotting of his envel- ope had occurred, it would have been de- stroyed and a clean one taken its place. Ik letters come habitually from one person and are habitually blurred and slovenly in their address, it argues a certain sioveniiness in character. If the penmanshtp is a quick, careless, dashy hand, it suggests that the writer is of a quick, neryous temperament, while if the writing itself ia liurried to sioveniiness it dis- closes lack of system, au individual always in aburry, Arupnning band, small and concise, bespeaks the collegiate, accustomed to taking notes at lectures; a reund, tull hand, a public scheo! edudatiéOa with Spencerian teaching in writing; a very angular up-and-down hand hints at the writer’s great imitative powers, for that is never natural, avery bold, dashing style argues individuality, and a pecuilar hand eriginality .with strength of character, especially if the peculiarity in thechirograpby is not pleasing. It itis a labored’‘hand it means one of two things, either lack of practice—perhaps in early education—or a very careful, pains- taking individual. If itis, however, a par- ticularly careful, round, even, beautiful hand, it argues vanity, fer the writer has evidently been praised for his penmanship and likes praise. If it isaneat, pleasing ad- Gress, believe in the person’s geod opinien of you, for he does his best in writing yeu. If it only pleases you because itis conventional, neatand goes form, believe in his general ood breeding and education, for his writing is like the smile en the face of a society woman. Again, if thd chirography be almost illegible, never ask the writer to de youa favor; he weuld not bother himself to be nice to anyone. As for the envelope itself, ta plain, ordl- nary affair, it means, not as might me sup- posed, poverty of purse; but either poverty ofcultivation or the fillleg of so chance a need, and the letter itself will reveal that it is a borrowed article and its use a case ot it or none at all. If the envelope be pictured or tinted you may doubt the owner’s good taste, Wulle it it have a monogram or crest you can be sure it Indicates pr! or self-esteem. If it be something upique and novel in design, as very long and slender, or very broad and square, look out for the guthing maid—at this seasen of the year the summer girl. Of eoursé the summer girl is extremely par- ticular about ber statipnery takes with her the very latest fade r pothing at all; she is proneto fancy something « trifle newer than the conventional cre white heavy or Ines paper. Perhaps the latest thing she can get isthe paper in deep heliotrope and blue tones stamped with a clover leaf in one corner, with a Gnish that gives to the clover the giisten of satin. Accompanying this she must have a sweet grass box to hold the paper, and a dear little pen- wiper in the shape of a clover leaf and made of flannel; the whole thing somehow made to guggest new-mown hay sort of innocence. If one is simply sighing for tinted paper the shades of pale gray and yellow with the ad- dress stamped in silver are the most desirable things to be used, but a good sensible sticking to a good sensible conventionality of paper is highly satisfactory. The address is the only thing that is now stamped upon one’s paper by those who study good form in everything, the envelope accompanying it being plain. A womar who looks after horjetter paper and watches that her supply does not exhaust itselfand her meeds requires her to take up with anything pro tem, adds one adwirabie quality te the list of daintinesses which Should make up der individuality. Precise, dainty ways, are acquired charms which should net be sneered at. The Sbhah’s Daughters. From the Chicago Post. The Shah becamea father atthe age of 16 years, wherefore his eldest children are now well advanced in life. His eldest daughter is nearly 46 years old, and is called the Glory of Kings. She married the son ofthe master ef the mint, one of the rienest men in Persia. When the master died, however, the Shah took possession of the bulk of his fortune. Naturally the son-in-law felt himself III- treated, and falling to obtain any redress, he left Persia and went te Paris. There he dis- tinguished himself by theeutter reckiess- ness of his career until his imperial father-in-law for very shame re- called bim and gave him what was left of his inheritance. He had previously been mar- ried tothe adopted daughter of Mme. Hadi Abbas, a clever French woman, whom Hadi Abbas, the court painter, married in Paris and took te Teheran, at the request of the ladies of the harem toteach them the Eu- ropean fine art of millinery. The second daughter of the Shab, called the Light of the Empire, is the wife of Gen. Yusuf Khad, Number three and four, the Pride of the Em- pire andthe Purity of the Empire, are mar- ried, tne one to a high court official, the other tothe chief priestof Teheran. Ail the eight grown SP: daughters of the Shah, indeed, have m good matehes, They have, perbaps, made better matches than their busbands. Forit itis not altogetaer profitable te be a son-in-law of the Shah. A princess spends much, and her carriages and runner, her many servants and the lavish en- tertainments she is obiigell to give to other princesses generally cost much more than the $10,000 per asnum which the Shan yives asa dowry. The nah, too, is.more apt to take anything from a son-in-law than from a stranger Or a person not refated to him, and another drawback is that the husband of a Bhah’s daughter loses more or less of his liberty, Cannot take other wives and must do as bis wife pleases. The only one, perhaps, of the Shah's sons-in-law who has kept hi liberty isthe chief p tof Teheran. He is able te bring religion to bear on the subject; can possibly justify anything he does by the Koran and traditions, and has the clergy with tue ir enormous influence to back him up. t A Feline Clock.

BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 9—A remarkable ease came before Justice Hobbes this after- moon. Abram Dundowsky, a Pole, had Har- ris Pearlman and the liatter’s two sens ar- rested for assaulting him, and during the hearing it developed that Dusdewsky was living with Peariman’s sister, though the latter was not legally married to him. ear!- man claimed that Michael Cohen had acted as clergyman and that it was a mock marriage, he having no authority to officiate. Duniow- sky held that the marriage was all right, though he had ne certificate, while Cohen testified that he simply settled matters by getting the pair to join hands and then con- gratulating them. Amelia, the wife, declared that she consid- ered the marriage binding, and that she had introduced anew system iu Baltimore. They were to live together as long as they found everything mutually agreeable and when they wished to separate they could do so. She oo- incided with Tolstol. The Justice simply fined Pearlman for the assault. The marriage, he said, was illegal, but did not concerns him. A Mysterieus Hemieide. New ORLEANS, La., Aug. 9.—Laast evening Deputy Ceroner Dr. P.

Chicago’s alleged fund for World's Fair purposes has already been dedicated to real estate speculation and the creation and improvementof new parks for the city. | A lake front park of ample dimensicns has long been needed there, to displace a large area of shallow and uselesslake and toAmproye and protect the harbor, But the money needed to make and improve this costly new land could never be ob- tained until the World’s Fair fund was subscribed, and with that a site for part of the Fair is to be made in the lake. Another section of the city has been long waiting and conténding for the im- provement of Jackson Park, and now this desideratum is to be secured by sim- ply locating a part of the World’s Fair in that unmade park and devoting part of the Fair fund to its preparation and im- provement. . How much this will cost may be estimated from the statement that the necessary drainage alone will cost $1,500, 000. By the time these far- apart sites are pre- pared for the Fair buildings there will be little left for the erection of the latter, and Congress aud the country will be called on to ‘‘put up” for the credit of the nation and provide the means for the nec- essary structures. From present appear- ances it seems that Chicago expects to get two new parks for her World’s Fair in- vestment, and the permanent use of sev- eral million dollars’ worth of grand build- ings erected in those parks with the mouey of liberal and patriotic outsiders. In short, the indfvations are that Chi- cago is working the Fair to get a great deal of other people's money out of it, and to secure valuable and permanent bene- fits from it, whether it proves a success or a failure from a national point of view. „ 1 CONFINING ALLEGED LUNATICS In connection with a recent case in this city, the Post-Dirsparcn explained how our statutes permit the imprisonment of citizens on a Charge of insanity without any judicial process. As the law stands now thereis no uniformity in the method of legalizing the commitment of insane persons to asylums and no proper protec- tion for persons said to be insane when they are not. Our statutes on this sub- ject certainly need revision, and speci- mens of the needed amendments may be found in the statutes of New York and Massachusetts, and especially in En- gland’s new lunacy act of 1890, which took effect three months ago. All of these require a judicial order to legalize the detention of any insane per- son in ahy asylum of any sort, and are enforced by commiasioners of lunacy with ample provisions for re-examination by judicial authority. That is the main point. The New York law forbids the confine- ment of any person in an asylum, public or private, except on the certificate of two reputable resident physicians whose qualifications are certified by a judge of a court of record, and no person can be held longer than five days upon such a certificate, unlesa the commitmentis ap- proved by a judge of a court of record, who has authority to take evidence and, in his discretion, to callin a jury to de- termine the question of sanity. The per- son thus committed or any friend of his can still appeal toa justice of the Suprame Court, who must summon a jury to deter- mine the lunacy question. This does away with the necessity of summoning a jury in every oase, but preserves the ultimate right of trial by jury, and still makes the commitment of an unquestionably insane person easy and inexpensive. The new English law, like that of Mas- sachusetta, requires that the detention of the person shall be by judicial order, and it goes further and provides for the ex- amination of the patient within a year, when a pew certificate approved by the lunacy commissioners is required to hold him a year longer, and 80 on. Iu the laws referred to may be found other features worthy of adoption by Mis- souri, such asthe provisions for lunacy commissioners with ample powers to supervise the mauagement ot asylumé and protect the patients from mistreatment or improper detention, SECRETARY BLAINE may have thought he had the President thoroughly bypnot- ized, but there are signs of his reviving under, the frantic prodding of the Reed- McKipley gang at Washington.

New Yor, Aug. 9. HE Presidential party arrived at the Fenn syivania Ralliroad sta tiog In Jersey City on their way to the G. A. RK. Encampment in Boston this afternoon. The party arrived in private car No. 6, which was attached to the regular Washing- ton express. Senator Evarts accompanied them, but left the party at Jersey City and came to New York. At the station the President and party were met by Lieut. Hughes of the Baltimore, who had been detailed by Ad- miral Gherardi to re- the distinguished guests. The Lieutenant escorted the party to the Government tug Vatalpa, which lay at the end of the pier. The members of the party quickly stepped aboard the tug, witn the exception of Searetary Halford, wha was stopped and nearly pushed offiate the water from the gaugplank by Lieut. Hughes, who mistook him for @ reporter, The order was them given to cest off and the tug started away from the pier. At this juncture two of the reporters sprang aboard the Cataipa, im the fee of ssrict orders that none but the members of the Presidential party were allowed on board. This act greatly incensed Lieut. Hughes, who ordered thatthe newspaper men de put in irons, In the meantime they had made their way to whéel-house, Where the President wes, hey were received very courteausly by the Presigent and invited to take some Cigars.

EW YORE, Aug. 9.— At 6 p. m. to-day it was giver out at the strikers’ headquar- ters that there would be a strike on the West Shore road at esundown. It = eae ie} 112 S L ~ - 0 — Lould be ordered to- Hguorrov on the Va Michigan Central, ZoeCanada Southern and Chicago & Nerth- western. It is ru- mored that a conference will be held de- tween the Brotherhood of Locomotive Eu- gimeers and the Knights to censider the advisability of the engineers assisting the Keights. Fully sixty engines are idle on the tracks areund tbe round-bouse. Thirty policemen are guarding the switches at Mott Maven. A mumber. ef nen-union engineers were put to work there this moraing and two accidents were re- ported. They both happened in the same way. The engineers were told to back toward the round-house at One Hundred and Fiftieth street. They lost contrel of the engines and wentemashing into other engines. No one wes hurt. Later it was reported that all trains on the New Haven road were switched off at New Rochelle and were run along the Harlem branch road. One New Haves train had come inte the Grand Central Depot up tonoon. This was the Port Cees ter local; that arrived an hour late at 9:30 this morning. About two hundred police reserves were called out this morning on the recommend tion of Mr. Webb. Nearly one hundred jand Atty of these were stationed between New York and Mott Haven, covering the Central lines, and the remainder were kept in the depot lest any disturbance should arise, but there was iittie or no occasion for their pres- ence. The railroad men all conducted them- selves In an orderly manner. The strikers’ side of the question was heard to-night. The men have been very quiet all Gay. A reporter saw one of the strikers after the adjournment ofthe meeting at Ledwith’s Hall at Forty-fifth street and Third avenue. He said that only two trains had been seat out by the Central road since the mail train left at 4:35 this morning. These Were made up by the train mem themselves. eur men in switch tower No. 1 were doing the work of twenty-seves. These had to Manage the levers with 63 som- Dinations. in the tower are not The strikers gay switcbwan, „H. Gibson, at work in the yard. There reel men doing the work of 450 in the Cen- tral yards. He accounted fer the number of trains which arrived to-day by saying that When tbe order tor the tie-up was given the men were instructed té continue the run until the terminus was reached. Dennis McCarthy, Whe was discharged on the ground of in- Sempetency, says that he hag been on the road twenty-one years and had the best train out of the depot. The strikers profess then Dbélief, that the Bretherhood and other engineers will join them. COhief Engineer Nat Sawyer of Vander- rotherhood of otive Engiveers, which tneludes the city Central engineers, was seen late this ‘ rTnoons. He was very strong in his de- ciation of the strike and stated that in no Way were the Brotherhood engineers eon- with it. Hesaid: ‘‘I have told ali the members of our order to miad their business. bis strike has nothing te do with us. entirely a Knights of Labor — with which organization the Brother ot Lweometive Engineers in in no way Sonnected. All our men are are at this moment at their posts and ready to go to work. They were simply forced te stop be- cause ef the desertion of the yardmen and brakemen. The same thing can be said ofthe firemen, who belong to the Brotherheod of Lecomotive Firemen. Neither they or the herhood engineers have struck. The New York Central Railroad has always treated us fairly, and we have no grievances of any ~Alithe men inthe carshops at West Al- ‘Dany, 1,000 in number, have struck, and the shops are closed up.

Milk will beceme a luxury in this city if the strike continues mucb longer. en one day's tie-up had the effect of raising the price over one-half in Certain quarters where the supply came over the Central and the Harlem roaé¢s. Wholesale dealers who depended on the Cen- tral were able to furnish only a small quantity to their custemers by buying .muUk that came over the West Shore Railread. When news came in the afternoon that that Ines was to do tied up it- caused -consterrzation among milkmen. A large proportion ofthe milk used in New York comes from the country tribatary te that road and its conneetions. To cut off this supply will cause the greatest annoyance that could result from a single line runaing into New Yorn. Itissaid that as manyas 15,000 cans or 600,000 quarts of milk are received daily. Bia losses are likely to be incurred by many milk dealers. The loss on milk in transit to-day probably did not ameunt to more than $4,000, At 8 o’cleck tnis afternoon Secretary Hayes ot the Knights of Labor and J. J. Holland of the Executive Board met the heads of the various assemblies at the Metropole and heid a consultation that lasted for some hours. The result was promised later inthe night. The actioa of the Brotherhood uf Engineers was looked for with greateagérnéss. Just what they will do is uncertain, and if the Brotherhood goes out it will stop all traffic and precipitate an early settlement of the difficulty. Imteresting developments are expected during the night. When Mr. Webb was told of the reperted action of the brotherhood be was dumbfounded and could say nothing. Mr. Clarke, the First Vice- President, said he did not believe a word of it and was positive that it could not be so. Late in the afterneoer a report was circulat- ed that Mr. Depew had sailed from Europe two days ago and was at present on the ocean. Mr. Webb denied the report and said that this morulng he had cabled te Mr. Depew that the employes of the road had struck. Mr. Clarke also denied the rumor, Saying that only this merning he received a letter from him in whieh he said nothing about his return until September. the Pennsylvania Vivision in seading out trains. The waiting room was jammed, and the ticket agent busily engaged in selling tickets. To All inquiries as to when the next train would leave, the invariable reply was, ‘*‘Ildon’tknow.’’ Twotraiss were all that left the depot up to4o'’clock. Oa tae Hudson River read, in addition tothe early day and afternoon trains, which all left somewhat behind time, they announced that they wouid send out two additional ones at 7:30and 9:15. At neon Mail Superintendent Morgan said that the Pittsburg mall, which came over the Penasylvania road and was due at 8:10 a. m., did mot arrive until 11:35, and the New York and Duokirk mail om the Erie, due at 8:50, did not reach the office until noon. He said that allthe other maile were mow coming in, but they were from two to three hours behind time. Mall Superintendent Jackson said he bad ius formation from the Grand Central that the out-going malls were being regularly dispatched. The Adame Express Co. are receiving pack- ages for New York Central points ‘‘Subject to Delay, and perishable articles are not re- ceived at all. First Vice-President Clarke, of the New York Central, says the company is getting along nicely. Every man whe went out at first has returned to work, and the officers of the roads have telegrams from Syracuse and Buffalo, stating that most of their strikers are asking to be taken back. More new men have applied for work than can be provided tor at present. Nocable dispatches have been sent to President Depew in Europe except to acquaint him ofthesituation. The company feels perfectly competent to meet all difficul- ties as they present themselves without Mr. Depew’s presence. Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Chairman of the New York Central Board and W. K. Vanderbilt, Chairman of the Lake Spore board, are in Newport and will not come to the city because their pres- ence is not ueeded. ‘**‘We inform them of the situation frequentiy,’’ said Mr. Olarke, ‘‘and they express confidence that the lines will come out all right.“ Mr. Clarke expressed regret that the officials ofthe company had bees prevented by the strike from attending the funeralof Henry Milliken, the veteran locomotive engineer, which toek place to-day. The Situation at Midaight. NEw YORK, Aug. 9.—The strike situation up to midnight was practically unehangec. Among railroad men'the belief is almost unan- imous that the Knights would remain obsti- nate until their demands were acknowledged. General Supt. loucey was seen to-night. He had but little new to add to the aceousts al- ready given. He was ot the opinion that the strikers would weaken @ be glad to ask for reinstatement. He declared that it would be doubtful if they would be taken back, as the places of the str ers were filled during the a(teruoon. Mr. Toucey said that 200 men were put to work to-day. They were all somewhat inexperi- enced, but he thougnt that it would be but a short time when they would knowtheir du- ties. All of the trains arriving at the Grand Central were late. The Chicago Limited left about twe hours behind time. The Boston express was delayed three hours and forty-five minutes. The fast mail pulied out at 9 o’clock, two hours late. Both the Chicago and Mostreal express trains were also delayed. The strike reached the yards of the West Shere depot at Weehawken at 7:40 to-night, about seventy-fveé men quitting work under the leadership of Conductor Kane. Extra men were at once assigeed in tke places ot the strikers andthe Western express was detained only thirty-five minutes. The regu’ lar 11 o'clock freight train went out on time. Trains on the Harlem and the New Haven road are running at periods of from one to one and a half hours late. Gen. Supt- Bracley, of the West Shore, atated at midnight that everything at Wee- hawhen was quiet aud he did not expect any trouble during the night. He bad just come aon a conference with several eflicers of the road. The meeting, which was to have taken lace between the ExecutiveCommittee of the nights of Labor and the committee from the Brotherhood of “ocomotive Engineers to- night, bad not occurred as late as 11 o'clook. Mr. J. J. Holland said be knew nothing of any such proposed meeting. The strike situation at Buffalo to-night is reported much improved. Trains are leaving on time, but few are urriving from the East. The strikers were paid off this afterneon and disshargea and their piaces filed by ner — Westerm trains arrive and depart on me.

T., Aug. 9.—While everything is outwardly calm bere the situation is far more serious than it was last sight. Late this atter- neon the local officials of the Central- Hudson road were not near so confident as they were last 22 while the strikers watched the progress events gaietiy, and declared that efore midnight the West Shore road would be tled up. The train schedule of the road is diteregarded. Trains are sent out, but they go out just as they can be put tegether. A tew trains have been run out of Albany over the New York Central South and West during the day after great exertions by the — s. Fach train had passenger cars at- 0 > | The strikers have made no disturbance, but a large torce of police are ou duty atthe depot. It is expected the strike will extend to the West Shore to-night. District Master Werkman E. J. Lee says the mals question at issue is the reiustatemeat of men whom the company has been discharging lately. The dismissals, he says, were due entirely to the fact thatthey were Kuaights of Labor. He prophecies that the freight engi- neers and firemen will go out soon. On behalf of the Executive Board, District Assembly 246, he addressed a letter to Gov. Hill to-day in whieh be said: ‘‘The press bas intimated the calling out of the State militia. We beg to assure you that no act shall be committed or any attempt made to violate the laws ofthe State. Distriet Assemby No. 246 assures Your Excellency that they and those whom they represent will do all in their pewer to inalntain order. LATER. The situation here grows more serious every hour. The men are watching ‘‘scabs’’ closely, and those who went to de duty during the day bave left to-night, afraid to of Every availabie policeman in the city is on — Serious delay was bad all the afternoon on / and duty. The Knights are in session, but no proc lamation is to be issued to-night. The engin- eers ure in session and to-morrow will likely leave their engines. The West Shore will shut down at o’cleek to-morrow morning if necessary the Erie road men will strike at night. Toe rallread authorities here are very anxious and their assurance of yesterday has disappeared. Of twenty-seven out ol 400 who staid te work in the West Albany shops there were only seven left te-night. The others will joia the Knights to-morrow. Passenger trains come now and then with few passengers aboard, out with no degree of regularity. Fifty Pinkerton wen arrived from New York to-night and are now on duty watching switches and caring for property. At Schenectady to-night the Brotherhood of Firemen are unanimousiv decided to sustain the strikers and will join them immediately. Ruaning Smeoethly at Buffalo. BurraLo, N. T., Aug. 9.—The New York Central management at this end did great work this morning. Atl0o0’clock there must have been a thousard people about the depot Waltlag for different trains. The fast mail ar- rived at 11:55 a. m., away behindtime. Ali the other trains were running this afternoon, but how these destined for New York will get along alter leaying here remains to be scen. The Lake Shore, est Shere and Michigan Central were having sotreuble. A sumber of men were brought in from East Buffaio yards and held in.readiness to take strikers’ places. At East Buffalo the situation was ng ~ this merning. Livestock and perishabie freight was sent via the West Shore. The run of through live stock was not heavy onthe Cen- tral to-day compared with rome weeks. Everythiag went on apparently as usual and shippers were not particularly apprehensive. The Central strike here la waxing warm. The switehmen, about fifty in number, are all out, and but very few baggagemen and brakemeu are at their posts. But few trains have come in to-day and the few that did were all frem two to six hours late. ‘*‘The whole sumber of men out here now is not far from 500, saida prominent railroad man. The pay-car came into the Central Depot this afterneon. Several employes ap- plied for their July pay, but it was refused them. They were told to ‘‘come around Monday. This caused asmall riot for a time. A West Shore conductor said this afternoon that as secon asthe men get their pay they would all strike and strike hard. It is understood tbat the company will under no circumstances take back any ofthe men who lett work this morning. The Tie-Up at Syracuse. Srracusme, N. T., Aug. 9.—Orders were issued this afternoon by the New York Central authorities to allow no trainsto leave Syra- cuse going East. A prominent Knight of Labor sald to-day that although it has not been gen tong J supposed that the Knights had an assembly in Syracuse, itwas a mistake. He says that there Is one here and that the Executive Board is now in ses siou awaiting orders. He says that suehnh an order would cause an immediate strike. The Yardmaster at East Syracuse this afternoon requested three stock trains to be taken back te the Oswego Junc- tion, but the strikers refused the request. Orders from the railroad authorities this af- ternoon were that no trains were to be taken further East then East Syracuse. An out- break occurred among the strikers there and trains were stoned. All is quiet at Dewitt. The dairy train going east at 9 a. m. did not change crews except engines and left for the east. Two trains from the east, the Little Falls accommodation and No. 9, are overdue. The stock train scheduled to leave at 7a. m. is stalled at Dewitt because all the pins were pulled. An unusually large number of engines are being collected at Ca- astota, where there is a cross-over tothe West Shore. The fast train east leaving here at 8:10 was switched to the West Shore at Canastota. A Laber Paper Speaks, ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 9.—At 10 o’cleck this morning the Independent Citizen, the organ of the Knights of Labor, was issued, and says editorially: ‘‘All honorable efforts on the part of the members of the Knights of Labor to amicably adjust the existing difficulties be- tween the corporation aid its employes bav- lag failed, owing to the stubbornness and the officers of the road, nothing left for the mento do butquit work, which they did in a quiet and orderly manner. ow, however, that the step has been taken, we advise the men to de calm, patient, orderly and in ali cases to strictly obey the orders of their leaders.

The Strike Anticipated. PITTSBURG, Fa., Aug. 9.—It is evident the New York Central officials were anticipating the big strike that began on their road last night. M. J. Dougherty, an agent of the read, took 2 t the erican House, this city, night and local or swite Am advertised in the and brakemen 4% of | ** „ Om 9 — — ton . with him. Dougherty says the ew York Central bas got 288 fa 86.

Up to thie time Dougherty has uot been abi. to secure a deten men that he can depend on. He says he does not think the strike will last long. Chicago Not Yet Touched. CHICAGO, Aug. 9.—Officials of the Vander- biltroads in Chicago know very little of the New York Central strike.. The main thing, however, is that the Lake Shore, Michigan Central and Nickel Pilate are receiving all freight offered, whether perish- able or not. This can de en care of by the West Shore line, and in case that should be tied up it will be turned over to competitors of the New York Central. None of the Chicago Vanderbilt lines appre- hend that the strike will tend west of Buffalo. The immense passenger business of the Vanderbilt lines in connection with the G. A. R. Encampment in Boston is the most embarrassing problem. Trains are rua out on schedule time, but what will be done with the passengers after they reach Buffale is still an unsolved problem. The Militia Called Out. Srracusr, N. T., Aug. 9%.—Captain M. Auer, in command of State forces at this sta- tion, received orders this evening to hold the militia in readiness to preceed to East Syracuse. They will go to East Syracuse by a special train as soon as ar- rangements can be completed. The strikers are likely to cause trouble there, but up te ma a no disturbance has oceurred. The situation ia this city to-night was unckanged. At Dewitt at midnight a freight train was stopped on the eastbound track just outside the yard and a passenger train on the westbound track was stopped by the strikers at the same piace. This completely stops travel tor the present. Five hundred strikers arein the yards and the company of Syracuse millita are on board —— special train, having left during the night. No Trains on the Central-Hudson. Troy, N. T., Aug. 9.—The 10a. m. train left here this morning with Capt. Licy@’s com- pany on board, bound for the military encampment at Peekskill, and a full complement of passengers for New York and intermediate stations. No ether trains are moving east or west on the Central- Hudson. Even the Belt Line between this city and Albany, operated jointly by the Oeceastral- Hudson ann the Delaware & Hudson, lost its usefulness as far as the Central-Hudson’s relation was concerned. The Cenducters Net in It. ROCHESTER, N. T., Aug. 9.—J. D. Schalts, Grand Junior Conductor of the Order of Rall- way Conductors, said to-@ay when asked how many men had quit work: ‘*Ten or twelve men, I understand.’’ Do the cenductors intend to quit?“ Not as far as I knew, he replied. ‘‘Of course we can’t tell what may turnup. The conductors have no desire nor present inten- tion of stopping werk. There would be no atrike not sanctioned by the Order of Railway Conducters; of Which lem an officer. The strike is ot small Magnitade here, and no serious results are anticipated.”’ On the Aubura Brasch. 7 AUBURN, N. » # . Aug. 9.—The Auburn brauch ef the Central is not yet affected by the strike. Trains are running on time, the only delay being the 6:50 a. m. train which was held at Syracuse three hours for the mall fromthe East. Am excur- sion train frem Syracuse to Chariotte, which was scheduled to rus after the 3:80 train, was delayed, but a large sumber of excursionists were aboard. All other trains manned dy regular crews arrived ou time. Ne Trains Passing Yorkers. YONKERS, N. T., Aug. 9.—Everything is tied up here. No trains are going up the Hudson River road at all. None have come down since 9 o’cleck, Pewderly Heard Frem. SCRANTON, Pa., Aug. 9.—General Master Workman Powderly, when asked his views concerrming the great strike on the New York Central & Hudson River Rall- road, was finally induced to say that some time since it was reported to him thatemployes of that line were being dis- criminated against, the discharged men all being known as leaders of organized labor. This strike is taken as a nal protest agaiust such discrimination, which had become un- bearable. Spreading te Other Lines, TROY, N. V., Aug. 9.—The Troy Union Rall - road controls allthe tracks in this city and employs forty-seven switchmen and fiegmen. All struck but Perry Waterman. They have no grievance, but mpathize with strikers on the New York Central. This may pre- vent any trains from running om the Dela- ware,Hudson & Fitchburg. Trouble is feared and a big reserve police force is on duty. All Trains Late. POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., Aug. 9.—Everything at the Hudsen Rallroad Depot in this city is quiet. Early trains from the West passed through from two to four hours late. Ali the switchmen in the freight and passenger yards have gone out on strike. Two local trains left here at 6:30 and 7:25 a. m. for New York, the jatter having no employes aboard except a conductor and a baggageman. Travel is not seriously interrupted. A Hard Read te Travel. Wrst Prains, N. T., Aug. 9.—There is a complete tie-up on the Heriem Railroad. No trains are moving. People who wish to go to New York are compelled to drive to the nearest station on either the New York OF & Northern, the New York Centralor the New York & New Haven Rallroad, where they take their chances of getting a train. Rome, N. I., Not Affected. Roms, N. T., Aug. 9.—The strike on the Central does not affect any railroad employes here. There are a good many Knights of Labor in the employ of the company here, but they have received no noties to strike and all of them are at work asusuel. Most local trains are running, but a little behind time, 1 Van debut to the Public, NEwport, R.

THE COUNCIL AND HOUSEIN AN UNDIGNI- FLED WRANGLE OVER ADJOURNMENT. Members of the Ceuncil Auxieus te Take Their Vacation, But the House Unwilling to Close Up Shop—The Number of Bid. Gers for Forest Park Privileges Increas- ing—Complicatiens Over the City Priat- ing. AE Council and House ot Delegates are now indulging in the lux- ury of abusing each other, as there is no other business to oo- cupy them. The over the disregard in which ite adjoura- ment resolution was ö held by the House, and the Heuse feels mad at the way in which the Council acted on Friday night, the night of its last meeting. The whoie matter centers on the anxiety of the members of the Ooun- en to take ‘their vacations. For some reason or other the Councilmen seem more able te do this than the Delegates, but why that Is can only be guessed. At any rate the Councilmen knowthat so manyof them would be going away that there would not be a qoorum, so early in the week they adopted a resolution to adjourn yesterday for the summer. The resolution was duly transmitted to the House, and reached there in the midst of an interesting debate upon some very insignificant sudject. It may bave been a drinking fountain tor a saloon, but whatever it was bas not been recorded. When the Ceunell resolution reached the House the members had not yet had a show a the pon- toon biidge, the Bell Telephone Co. or the refrigerator company, and not knowing what the bills were worth to the city or other- wise, and being in the midst ot their heated debate, they simply ianered the adjournment resolution of the OCouneil and incidentally voted that it be laid onthe table. In other words, they replied to the when the House was good and ready, and not before. tions are transmitted from one body to an- other, fer the receiving body to take some ac- tion such as amendment or nonconcurrence. The House did not extend this parliamentary courtesy to the Couneil, and in consequence the Council took the proceeding as an exbuse for the action of Friday night. The House is the one which is doing all the howling oa this particular development, and they put several different constructions upon the subject and bint at motives somewhat un savory. The cause of the kick is that the Council on Friday 13 before the House had time to say is little say. The adjourn- ment was made until Tuesday, at which time there will be only six members of the Council in the so that «both the Heuse and or such of them aé may turn up will de compelied to meet every day and then adjaurn until the next. This may keep the House meeting every day for two or three weeks as it cannot adjourn without a concurrent resolution of the Council. All the House legislation is stopped and work at a standstill. Members of the House say that Mr. Comfort adjourned because he wanted to side-track the refrigera- tor bili fer purposes of his own. Mr. Comfort says that he had no such iInten- tion, but that While he didnot vote for ad- — 48 he thinks the Cousell perfectly ustified in doing se In the face of the snub of the House. Asto that refrigerator bill, Mr. Comfort says that the House had that all cut and dried, as they sent over to the Council and had it enrolled in advance, before they had had it under censideration. This looked funny, Mr. Comfort thought, and he did not blame the Counoll for doing what it aid. As te members going away, Mr. Comfort argued that it had not been officially brought to the notice of the Council and had not been mentioned in the motion te adjourn. 80 the matter goes back and forth from the House to the Council, and each biames the other for what has been done. While they are dicker- ing and squabbiing the public ~ ig they represent are suffering, and Maj. Murphy is in suspense Intense as to what will become of him and the Street Department. Yesterday Mr. Comfort, who is Vice-Presi- dent of the Council, and in autherity during the absence of President Walbridge, gave Sec- retary Metcaife permission to go North to meet his family as some of the children are sick. There is nothing biamabiein Mr. Met- calfe’s going, but be was excused for that length of time because both he and Mr. Com- fort knew that there would be no quorum on Tuesday and nothing for the secretary to do.

From the New York Sun. It is always a desirable thing te have a neat, have some waist, instead of a larger circum- ference where the waist should de than around the chest. Ifthe surplus fat fs re- moved from the waist it improves the figure and does net require the great eare and exer- cise which athorough system of weight re- duction needs, unless itis taken under the supervision of some specialist who furnishes the advice and the care. | Naturally there is a Certain symmetrical proportion between the walst measure and the other measurements of the body. This proportion is not the same at all ages, mor for people of all builds, but it may réughiy be stated in the case of aman that aist measurement and the inside trousers seam should be the same, Thatis, if the trousers leg is thirty-two inches the waist should be about thirty-two inches. A margin of one or two inches does not matter much and will usually be found inthe case of very tall or very short mer. This ratioof the walst and * holds good in ordinary cases. he way to reduce the waist is to sweat tt and to exercise ite muscles. Exercising the muscles of the arm increases thelr size, but Mis the arm of a fat man it will not in- crease the weight of the arm. The cireum- ference may be greater at the point of grent- eat expansion when the cle is contracted, but the arm will not have tke same Agta lel r that it had before, and it wil — weigh so much. Even if the weights 3 1 be the same there will be some decrease there pearance. N There are several exercises ing the waist. One of the best down full length on the fleor and to yey your- self up with your abdominal muscles. This exercise strengthens the muscies and gives them greater power of contr ng. lf also works the fat off them. It is advisable during part ot the exercise to wear a flannel ora for redue- them ie to lie work the fat off more idly. The wearing of a flannel er woolen bandage os horsoback also reduces the waist. This is the case even when the riding its so mild as not toreduce the even increase with waist. men tends to work off the fat. The fat accu- mulates isthe muscles because they are not used enough towerk it off. Fat has a tend- ency to deposit in the least used muscles and its deposition tends to a still legs frequent use of the muscies, and in turn to a greater accu- mulation of fat.

W. Perry, he gives the fol- lowing deductions as to dangerous currents de- rived from his observation, and a series of experiments: „In case an electric road were operated by a current at 1,000 velts it is evident that ten 100- volt lights could be operated in series in each car, and under these circumstances the secker after sensations could get anything he wanted in the way of shocks from that due to 100 volts’ pressure up to that due to 1,000 volts’ pressure, That itis quite evident that while the first statement might be perfectly true if comprehensively understood, yet it would not be advisable to assume that all-in- candescent light ciroulteor even all circuits iacandescent lights were safe. And again, we have seen that in the 1,000 von circuit all pressures from 100 volts to 1, 000 could be obtained according to the point where one touched the wire, so it would not be safe to assume that because I touched the ciroult with impunity at one point you or anydoby else could do the same at another point. And yet this is just what would be assumed by the majority of people, and if you were killed and I was scareely shocked, it would be referred to ag an illustration of the idiosyncrasies of the electric current. PECULIAR ACCIDENTS IN MINES. „A couple of summers ago 1 was present at the starting of a new electric underground rullroad in one of the coal mines in Penn- syivania. The trolley wire—to use an Irish bull—was alight Trall supported on timbers overhead out of reach of persons standing on the ground. At one point there was a switch by which the current could be turned on or ef, and on this day as. it was desirable to have this readily accessible a large wooden block was placed on the ground underneath it. By standing on this one could reaaily reach the trolley rail and switch. Had the block been a perfect Insulator, a person standing upon it could have touched the trolley rail without the slightest shock even though there had been 5,000 volts instead of 350 as was the case, but as it was, the conductivity was just sufficiest to give one standing upon it and touching the rail aright smart sheck, and the whole thing being new to the miners, they were — themselves by getting up and touching the rail. „One man thinging to havealittie fun at the expense of another, jumped upon the block and while he touched the rail with one hand «grasped bis intended victim, who was standing on the damp greund witb the other. „He thought to surprise his friend witha alight shoek, such as be himself had been tak- ing in fun before, but the 22 was a huger one than he had anticipated, for by grasping the other man’s hand he made a good connec. tion with the ground, through his own as well as bis friend’s body and the result was that both men were vVioleatiy thrown to the round, and so quickly that they scarcely — what had done it; neither man was hurt, but all had a great respect for that trolley ral thereafter. Not many days from this time a mule came in contact with this same trolley rail and was almost lustantly killed. and in falling he pulled his mate over in contact with it and he too was killed. Now here were three different effects from the same current, yet the condi- tions being G@ifferent, the results varied widely. ANIMALS AND MEN. „ Now we were to try to reason by analogy we should say-—this current was strong enough to kill two mules, therefore these two men ought in all fairness to have been Killed. But they weren't. ‘‘Again, among the miners it was argued thateince one man alone on the block could easily stand the shock, and the two men catching hold of hands were both thrown to the ground, if three or more bad hold of each other, they certainly would have been killed.

Wealthy men of Boston and New Tork are interested. At a meeting of the Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Animals in Jacksonville, Fia., last week, steps were taken looking to the possible inducement of the street car au- thorities to substitute electricity as a motor In place of the muess now employed, the — ter being referred to the executive committee of the society for such action as may be prop- erly taken.

This is an invention — to overcome the de- fects of iht sending’’ and to insure a geod connection at the contact points ef the instru- ment, there being combined with a vertically swinging lever and a second lever sctuated therefrom and connected with the main line two pivoted arms connected with opposite Peles of a battery, a spring insuring contact of the second lever with the arms. Mr. George H. Walcott, whose term of thirty-seven consecutive years at the key is saidto make him the oldest operator in the service, gives a geod illustration of the development ofthe telegraph. Mr. Walcott for many years has prepared the holiday list of the New York mein effice operating depart- ment. He says that twenty-five years ago the Fourth of July list wae written on the back ofa blank, and contained anly forty names while that of the Fourth of July just passed was six feet long and eontained 1,300 names. The transmission of electric power to a dis- tance is one of the most important studies of the electricians, and some success has already been attained. The immense paper mills of S. D. Warren & Co. at Cumberland Millis, Me., are now run by electric motors with power, generateda mile and a quarter distant. One of these days, perhaps, every neglected mill power in Western Massachusetts will be run- ning electric generators, and power will be sont over wires, concentrated in great storage batteries in Sprinufield, Holyoke and other manufacturing cities and towns, and drawn upon to run motors for machinery in hun- dreds of establisments. The Board of Directors of the Western Union Telegraph Ce. have decided torebuild the upper floors oftheir building at Broadway and Dey street. Tus tower will also be done away with. Ithas been decided to put the Associated Press on the sixth floor, and turn the seventh and eighth floors into operatiag rooms. Itis proposed to bring the 2,000 wires to the rear of the bullding, and have them en- ter by a specially vonstructed shaft. They will then be distributed in fron pipes, so ar- ranged that they may be flooded with water at anytime. The wires in these pipes will be covered with rubber. There will be several small switchboards, which will be connected. In order to promote and simulate original investigation, as well as to bring before the engineering public the resuits of such study, the British Institution of Civil Engineers bas invited original communications upon a list of fifty topics whieh cover a wide range of professional work. Six of the subjects in- cluded in the list are of an electrical nature, and are as follows: ‘‘Electric Meters for Re- cording the Consumption of Electric Ea- orgy. The Conatraction and Maintenance of Secondary Batteries, The Appiiection of EKiectricihty to the Pumps, Tools, Ete.,’’ **The Application of Klectricity to Smeiting and Metallurgical Op- ¢rations,’’ Ihe Applida&tion of Electricity to the Purification of Water and of Se wer- age, and The Purification of Copwer and the Reduction of Copper Ores by Electrolytic Processes. Another interesting feature has been added to the wealth of attractions at Lincoln Park, Chicago. It is an elevtric fountain presented the city by Charles T. Yerkes and constructed ata cost of $60,000..The fountain was re- cently completed, and when ested proved thoroughly satisfactory. The electric and steam plants have not yet been completed, however, but it is hoped everythiug will be in readiness within a couple or weeks. lhe generating statien will be at the greenhouse and the wires leading to the fountain, which is near the Grant monu- ment, have been placed underground. LEieht 5,000-candle power arc lamps will be placed in thefountais. The dynamo and lamps are ef the Brush type. As the fountain will only play at nightthe water pressure, it is thought, wis be sufficient te throw the stream to the height of seventy-five feet. ‘the fountain, with its electric light effects, will be une of the most beautiful in the world. An interesting sight Was to de seen on the fourth floor of the Western Union Building, at 195 Broadway, the Monday after the fire. All the cables that led iato the battery room on the sixth story had been brought down here, and the work offinding out where the bun dreds of wires ron was begun. Each wire had to be connected to an instrument, which was mounted upom a dry goods box. This is a sample of the telegraphic conversation that was carried on: I. I. N. T1. Who’s on this wire?’’ Then would follow a silemee of a second or 80, whén the sounder would click: ‘*Butfalo is here.’’ ‘‘What’s the number of the wire?’’ . And soit went all day long. One minute as, was talking, and then it was Washington, Philadelphia, Bos- ton, OF, perhaps, some Jersey town. As fast asa wire was identified it Was labeled with a tag and run up to the floor above, where car- penters, linemen, and operaters worked together. Before 5:30.p. M., the hour when the day force quits work, there were 300 oper- ators, men and women, sending and receiving messaces. The London Eicctrician states that an exten- sive underground telephone system is now in course of construction at Berlin, and a large number of cast iron pipes are being laid by the telegraph department for the purpose.

He had frequently received ‘consvience money’ in this way. He then explained that this was probably the amount of goods taken surreptitiousiy from the shops in spite of the close surveillance kept. Whoever had taken the goods had proven repented, and not wishing to make imeelf or herself known as athief had taken this mode of restitution and had given it te the clergyman to be returned, knowing that it would be consclentiousiy done. Sometimes such a person does not even see the clerzy- man, but forwards the money direct, with the information that it is a‘conscience money. After the above ot olay the reporter learned of a number of curions cases in which an awakening conscience has caused in the guilty one a restitution of property. Not very long © awidow was left with several children. Her husband had been very wealthy, but she had been rebbed by the man who bad managed her affa.rs. One day she was in a very disconsolate mood. She Was in need ots me money for immediate use and knew no way of obtaining it again. At a mo- ment when ber mind was in the biluest of clouds, the door bell rang and a card was brought ber. She went to the parior and found an eld acquaintance of her busban d's there. ‘‘Madame,’* he sald, I bave just collected an old debtthat was due your hus- band and myself, It was . SIX HUNDRED dollars, and it is oniy ust that you should have one-half of it.’’ bereupon he banded her 8300, which was a veritable angel oflieht to the bewildered and impe- cunlous widow, Nodefinite idea of the al- loxed debt was given and sbe was perfectly aware that it was ‘‘conscience money she was receiving. The old friend of her husband had evidently beard of ber present distress, remembered some transaction in which he had defrauded ber husband of that amount and took this way of making restitution. Another instance was tbat in a robbery that occurred ina handsome. house ia this city. Among the Valuables taken were twe portraits on ivory in very handsome frames. o trace of the robbers could be found, but several years after alarge check was mailed to the kentleman at whose house the robbery had occurred, and thesame day, expressed from Philadelpbia, came the two pictures on ivory with frames untouched. No card or expiana- tion accompanied either check or pietures. About two ears age a well-known society ce ofthis city attended a local reception. hbilst there she lost a valuable bracelet. Search was made for the missing article and advertisements also inserted in the papers, but no response came to the inquiries, Two years after a strange man called on the oung lady, saying he wished to see er a moment on business. Whenshe entered the reception room she saw a very elegant and cultured man. He explained that was a stranger in the city, and that he bad wrem: ised a friend of bis, whose name he could not zive, to deliver a package into the bands of Miss — herself. This he proceeded to do, me ee ey DY she would not Open the case until he had left the house. Relating her experjencé to her sister after the stranger’s departure, the young ladies suggested dyn- amite and the other horrible fears that the box might contain, especiaily noting the fact that ne had said not to open the box until he had left the house. The young lady, however, was both SPIRITED AND CURIOUS and did open the case despite her sister’s protestations. Within it lay gleaming, in a new chamols case, the bracelet that aks had lost at the reception two years before. Whether the culprit, whose conscience was aroused so long afterwards, was in the hich or low ranks of life, guest or servant, whether woman or man, friend or strauger, no one could tell. There was no word of explanation, and the mystery is likely to remain forever unsolved. In Pittsburg one of the bishopsthere sent for a lady who was visiting from 8t. Louis and who formerly had resided in Pittsburg. He had $100 awaiting der which had been handed to him in the confessional some months before, with the request that it should be returned to this lady at the first opportune moment, which he did accordingly. Of course the clergyman returning it never divuiged the rame ot the repentant one re- turpivg it, and in many cases they do not even know who the persen is. Not long ago the mother of a prominent mer- chant ot thiscity reeeived word that some one would like to see her at a certain bour on important business, The appointment was made, andthe next day a woman, heavily veiled, kept the appolntmest promptly, She didn’t speek a word, but placed a Sealed per peekage in the lady’s hand. withdrawin sileptiy. In the package was four crisp ban notes, all of them $60. Another instance was when agentieman, still associatea with the Court- house, and who is the oldest official tpere, was Land Clerk, a position now abol- ished. Father O'Neil, a Roman Cathelic clergyman, brought him $20 one day, which had been handed him in cosfession with the request to deliver it to Mr. . „here is a lady lleing in the West ud who recently received $25 in a mysterious way. Several years ago whilst visiting ata friend’s house she had lost her pocketbook. She made efforts to recover it, but without avail, aad she dia not know whether the money was lost whilst in the house or on the street, As time went by she forgot all about ber logs, which amounted in all to $60. A Short time since a district messenger brought a parce: directed to her name and address. In itshe found the same purse, even with old rigs top? some postage stamps and a Watch key t had been in it at the time, but only $25 was in the purse. However, a note in « strance, scrawiing hand accompanied the package. The note read: a Twenty-five of sixty. More later when it de made.

THE BROOKLYN BABIES BEAT THE BEOWN STOCKINGS. * Seme Very Kemarkable Decisions—Louis- ville D Syracuse—The Athletics Again in Third Piace—The Games is the Leagtees—Brockirn Makes « Triple Vic- tery—Another Shake Up in the Order of the Brotherhood Teams. HE Browns could have beaten the Breokiyns yesterday, but they could not beat nine ball players and an umpire. Mr. Curry is one of the coolest umpires in the Associa- tion, and the way he ignores kicks is to be commended. But he should be just as well as firm. His decisions on balis and strikes were very rank yester- day. Stivetts bad to cut the plate iu half to e — * —— strike, while if Murphy got thé ball within six inches of one ef the corners, that was sufll- eient. While absurdly lenient with the Brook- lyn man, he was £0 unlformly | severe with Stivetts that he called very few strikes except when the batter fanned the air. In the seventir in- ming Stivetts really struck out four men be- sides which Nelson was given a lite on an absurd foul ball decision. But the worst of Mr. Curry’serrors was in the ninth inning, when the game was presented to Brooklyn by Welis being given out at first when he was obviously safe. O’Brien was several feet away fromthe bag when he secured the ball and it was a dead race hetween the two men, whoreached the plate simultaneously. Ac- cording to the rules a base runner is safe if the ball is not actually ahead ef him, but Mr. Curry makes rather than follows rules and so Wells was called out andthe game lost to the home team. Stivettse was scarcely up to his average form, but his patience inthe face of the um- pire’s unjust decisions on balls and strikes deserves the highest praise. Only five bits were made off his delivery, and although he is credited with fivestrikes out, as a matter ef fact he realiy struck out eight men. But he was wild at critical moments. He was well supported, though there were four errors, and two of them costiy. Donnelly was off with a dad arm, and McCarthy covered third base, Munyan going to ieft field and Wells behind the bat. After the first inming the two latter players changed laces. Duffy's catch of Dally’s hit was the eature ofthe game. The little center fielder had te run ateprint speed and when he held the ball the crowd cheered him to the echo. The HBrooklyns had Murphy in the box. He proved a stumbling bleck to the Browns, for although he was hit freely, the ball néarly every time went right into the pitcber’s or short stop’s hands. The four assists credited to Murphy, the six to Nelson and O“ rien“ seventeen put outs explain the story. Murphy was, hewever, wild, making two wild pitches, xiving three men "their base on balls, and pitehing any mumber of bad balls that Curry erratically called strikes. The Browns made one in the first inning. Fuller hit safe and ran to third on a wild piteh, scoring on McCarthy’s hit. They made another run in the third, when Stivetts lifted a ball imtotheair. It fell on the right field fence and the speedy pitcher trotted gracefully round the bases. In the eighth Wells was out from shortstop to first base. Then Stivetts bit safe and Fuller was given his base on balls. Both runners advanced a base on a passed ball and Stivetts scored on Davis’ tumble of MoUarthy’s slow hit. The Browns only needed one run to the score but Campau and Cartwright both flew out. The visitors made two runs in the first. Nel- son got safely to rst in censequence of Mo- Cartby’s poor throw. Simon got his base on balls, and after Daily had been caught by Duffee Davis hit for two bases. He got put out trying to reach third, but Nelson and Simon both scored. In the third, with two menout, Daily made a two- base hit, Davie got his base by getting hit. Both men scored on O Brien’s bit. In the ninth with the score four to three favor of the Brooklyns, Duffee hit to Gerhardt and died at first. right foul line and was eut at second. Mus- yan hit to Davis and reached second ona wild throw. Welle hit past first dase and rua- ning hard reached the bag just as O’Brien got | there from the opposite direction. Curry waved his hand im the direction of the players’ bench and the game ended, the spectators roundly hissing one of the worst decisions ever given on the grounds.

Columbus really won the game in the first inning, when with three men on bases Sneed hit a hot grounder to center and brought in three runs, himself coming in on Knowles’ error from third to first.

This, it is thought, marks the early dissolution of the league. This leaves Burlington, Evansville, Quincy and Peoria and it is not known to-night what they wilido. Terre Haute’s withdrawal caused much commotion and was not expécted, as the club is ln good financial condition, ‘bus the directors were afraid of the future. Mars will sign with Syracuse, The Other players are In the market for engagéments, but as they are all good imtheir respective positions they will no doubt secure engagements. Quin- cy won the first game to-day by a score of 6 to 3. Terre Haute won the second game by a score of 11 to 2. Breoklyus vs. Brewns Te- Day. To-day the Browns aud Brooklyns will meet in the second game ot the series at Sports- man’s Park. Asitisthe first Sunday game since the Browns’ return from their Eastern trip a big crowd is expected.

Sherman. the clty is strangers. The National Encampment of the G. A. R. opens on Tuesday. August 12, and an army of men who wore the blue, numbering at least a hundred thousand, are expected here. The procession of old soldiers will afford the most impressive spectacie of the sort that has been witnessed inthis country since the grand review of the armies of Grant and Sherman in Washington at the close of the war. Boston isin gala attire. Flags are Aying in all directions. Shops, bulldings and private bouses are gay with bunting. Mechan- 10% Bullding, where many of the old soldiers are quartered; Faneuil Hall, the cradle of liberty; Music Hall, Tremont Temple, Horti- cultural Hall, the City Hall and the &tate- house are all appropriately decorated.

A reunion of many veterans will also be held, and reunions of many other organ- izations at such times as may be agreod upon. Of the distinguished mea and women who will be present, President Harrison and his Cabinet ofcourse will rank first.

He will de the guest of the State, aud upon bis arrival willbe escorted from the station tothe Hotel Vendome bytwo troops of av alry. He will review the procession from one ofthe grand stands.

It will not be so great nerbaps froma gastronomic point of view as other Danguets that have been held in this town, but it will, nevertheless, be a very substantial meal, and the speakers, such as Sherman, Aiger, Tanner, Sickies, Slocum, Foraker and others, may be depended upon to recall the days of war and peace with a VIVIDNESS OF DESCRIPTION thet will make the olu soldiers forget for the time at least their wounds and their troubles. At the meeting on Wednesday Gen. Alger wil! deliver bis annual address.

REFLEX NERVE ACTION, Swallow ef Ice Cream Will Cause Sharp Pain in the Temple. Why is it that upon taking an imprudently large mouthful of ice cream one is apt to feel a sensation of violent pain in the temple? says a writer in the Washington Star. The ice cream, when such a big mouthful of it is in- eautiously swallowed, produces a chilling effect of the nerye of the larynx, or ‘‘voice box, and of the pharynx, in the throat. The sensation shoots back to the center of those nerves inthe bra inz but there it nds a side connection with the great facial nerve that starte from in front of the ear and extends its branches over the side of the face. One branch ofthis facial nerve, extending across the temple, is 4 nerve of sensation, while the other branches are nerves of mo- tion, governing chiefly the play of the mouth. The pain from the chill is side-tracked along the nerve branch that traverses the temple and the feeling is likely to De quite agonizing In that locality for a moment or so, very likely involving the eye- ball sympathetically. This feeling of a sensation in one nerve when an- other nerve is attacked is what is called re- flex action.’’ How a 819.25 te Baltimore aud Retura Via the Ohio & Mississippi Rallway.

The “centrifugal propeller is the name of a new invention designed to enable steamers to attain extraordinary speed. Strictly speaking, the appliance is not a propeller at all; it is simply a remover of resistance ahead. The stem of the steamer is cut away downward and backward from the water line, and here the rotary fan, or centrifugal machine, is placed. The pressure and resistance of the water ahead is got rid of by clearing the water away, thus virtually endowing the pro- pulstve screw 3 — in the stern with reatly augmen po 5 12 — 2 movi 2 —— 5 iction is knots skin friction t ee ee 155 . n „ 1 a., iy a ee 8 nage, é 1 ’ a * N ¥% ks * N ' . * 5 $d deat hes ny?

And then there ts tne largely reduced yield of vege- tables, the damage to fall pasturage and the general drouth suffering of all kinds of plants. These von- ditions did not prevailin 81. yet wheat then went above $1.50 on rampant speculation, fell to about 780 when the wind boom ecllapsed and recovered to over $1.40 o legitimate and speculative influences ‘combined. The highest price so far been ud to that time this season was last Friday morning when De- cember sold at $1.,04%, September at 95% and May at $1.04%, which were advances of Siege for Decem- ber and 4e for the other options over the preceding Saturday. It has not been a one-sided market this season by any means, considering how strong the situation is ahd how bullish the influences have been, It hes been a professional desl since the early bulge of last spring, Then the country took out their profits and since then has played the game cautiously, Jeaving the plunging to the talent that runs the grain pits of the different mar- kets. Tliis class is too fond of snatching Pprofite and seldom dulld the top- heavy pyramids that usually prove so disastrous to the outsiders. This taking profits and lack of out- side buying has interfered materially with booms that started under splendid promise, got ona full head of steam and then blew themselves feebly out at 50 to 10c advance, It looked very much Friday as though this latest boom hall come to the same un- time y end that its predecessors had. There was this exception, however, that the men who are friendly to wheat and believe in much higher prices bave sold little of their long wheat and are holding on nervily in the face of the present weakness and de- pression, Frank Ryan, the great bull leader aud hea@ of the famous Art Club.“ is known to be long his entire ne and most of his fol.owers are stanchily standing by him. The general scalp- ing element, hewever, and most of the dyed -in-the- wool bears have been play int for a break and the market has undoubtedly been oversold more of late than for some time before. A good deal of uneasiness was felt over the government re- port for August. Most, of the tra ders looked for a bearish document, that fs, that the con- dition ofspring wheat would not be as low as late re- ports led a good many te look for. There has been a8 much if not more in and out lying aboutthe North- western crons than there was earlier in the seasou about winter wheat.

The admirers of the er option bill are asked these questions: Would wheat, corn and oats have advanced to their present high range of prices without speculation? and would there have been speculation without future trading?

Offeringsof Missouri and other bright wvols showed a decided increase, as several holders in the interior shipped in large lots to be sold at value. Texas and territory were also in average receipts.

I believe there is no phase of gymna- lum work that re- quires more patient and faithful study, more steadiness nerve or a greater Troe, itis not work that brings beginner who finds himself lacking in general pbysical development is to make that discovery about as rapidiy and as conclusively while attempting to re- cover from a slip on the practice trapeze as in any other department of gymnasium exeroise.

The legs must be strong and firm to sustainthe body in its various poses. The back must be sinewy, so thatthe recovers may be made quickly and the upright maintained without a chance of failure, and the arms and hands must be hard and strong, forwhen a man falling from a trapeze grasps at the bar he must catch it and hold on to it if he desires to preserve the wholeness of his skin. Still, in spite of these admirable qualities that balancing calls into play, most indoor athletes prefer the bar and the rings, the trapeze and the bells. This may in a mess- ure be the cause of the Jack of literature bear- ing upon the subject. In the hope that a brief sketch of my own experience, short though it be, may be of interest to those who are about to begla a course of practice in this line, I will try and describe how some feats are accomplished and how some of thé wis- takes that I made at frst may By caution be avoided. lwas born in July, 1870, and entered the New York Athletic Club nearly three years ago. Although I bad ample opportunities for undertaking gymnasium work I never at- tempted exercise ofany kind until last De- cember, when, partly in an emulative spirit, after a ladies day’’ exhibition atthe club, and partiy to strengthen myself generally 1 took up work in the gymnasium. After keepiug at it pretty faithfully for the best part ofa month aud trying my hand at pretty much all of the apparatus, with little OF RO success, [became very much discout- aged at my want of ability to even makea start atanvthing. One day when wandering around the gymnasium I came across the balancing trapeze, which for practice had been hung wi afew feet ofthe floor. Stepping on iti found thatl could maintain a balance for a few onde at a time. Mr. George Goldie, the club instructor, who was standing moos bY, suggested that I maxe balancing @ nage § keeping in mind that ‘‘Reme was mot bullt in a day. THE EASIBST BALANCE.

After learning all of the above named feats he will find tive remainder of the still bal- ances, with the exception of a few which are made in ‘‘fancy’’ postures, comparatively easy of acquire ent. A ili“ ance, I may explain, is one that le made while the trapeze is motionless inthe air. The ar oe — — — while the trapeze is in motion, ford an k, from right to left, or while describing an ellipse. Still balances should be thoroughly mast- ered before attempting the swings. The side swing, asis represented in No. 4, is a good one to begin with. This is the way tra Ring Balance. It is done. Firsttry it witha gentle swing, and gradually increasing the momentum make it wider. After this a backward and forward swing on one leg might follow, and should be treat- ed in the same way. A difficult swing to learn is the back and forward. The balancer stands as I did in No. 2, and the trapeze is gentiy at first and then more rapidly swing baekward and forward. The learner must guard against a fall, as the ropes are harder to ca while doing this trick than in any other, with the possible ex- ception of the knee swing. The neatest baiance of them all, and one of the hardest, is the circular swing. The bal- ance changes at very point. Thisthe wey I doit: Iplace both feet on the trapeze tn the same position I had in No. 4 and start a for- ward and backward ewing, which ie gradually worked into an elipse. THE DIFFICULT CHAIR BALAKCS. Wher one is proficient in the above, the chair balance may next betried. A good way to learn this is to try the balance on the floor with the char so near the wall that the back of it may find an easy rest so that when the beginner loses his balance, as he certainly will do on his first attempts, he will not lose his persogal dignity as well as his general equipolse. When he can take a chair and place it fn the middie of the room and strike a baiance and hold it, then let him turn tothe trapeze and ersevere on it until the feat Is accomplished. e Should not fold his arms until he is abso- lutely certain of his balance. After he has reached that state of assurance, the trapeze should be elevated te ite naturai height, from fifteen to twenty-five feet from the floor, My state of mind on first finding myself ia the air with the bard floor visible through the meshes of a decidedly skimpy iooking net was that of extreme nervouaness—to say the least. This feeling, however, gradually wears off and in its place comes confidence. The beginner should not be discouraged at his zallure to peform all the task he has laid Side Balance. out for himself in a single day or at first trial, and he should not worry because one day he may be able to achieve success and the day following may be marked by repeated failures. Such are common experiences. Balancing, like all other gymuastic feats, can only be ac- quired by faitnfal and persistent practice. The ring balance,.as is shown in No. 7, is done both with a awing and atastandstill. It should not. be attempted until the muscles of the legs are well developed. After these feats have been learned the balancer should pay at- tention to his style and learn to be graceful, as well as sure in his work. SLACK ROPE. Balancing ob the siack rope is essentially different m trapeze Dalancing. On the siack rope the balance bas got to be kept by working the body from thé waist down and is mainly done with the less. t is the reverse in the trapeze. The! must be kept rigid and the balance worked m the waist up—of course a balanoé on One leg is helped consia- érably by ttefellow. But when both feet are on the bar it is all from the waist up. The siack rope should be harder to learn at firet than the trapeze, as itis radically differ- ent from the man’s gatural baiance, which is kept mote with the arme and body and less with the legs. For instance, take the small boy walking on a reilroadtrack who swings uh arms ke a windmill and wriggies his body like an l. ides the begiuner has ‘ enn ° „ and it is b fatiguing. , so ce om one leg is hard Slack rope than 4 the tr — 4 not the ro * tors In a courses of training im all kinds of balancing. They are as follows: First—A moderate use of tobacco and alco- bol; the nerves should be steady; aman who drinks makes a poor baiameer. Second—The most assiduous attention and practice until the baiances bave been well learned, when a very littie practice will keep one in trim. Third—In learning to balance on the trapeze always catch the rope when the balance is lost. This shon!d be kept in mind whens prac- tising near the floor, so that when elevated in the air it will be second nature te cateh the ropes when a balance fs lost.

Sait’’ ls, 1do not know, but my ignor- ance fs no deeper than isthat of nine hun- Gred and ninety-nine Americans out of the thousand concerning the countryman, whom Salt is to biog- apbrize; for Thoreau is among the very least known of American literary men at home as well as abroad. Let it isam encourag - ing sign of posthumous vitality that twenty- eight years after his death there should be the promise of an English life of him; for supply ~in Nterature as well as everytbing ele ig Usually the product of demand. And no one can be more rprised at this sign than Thoreau himself, if he knows anything about ie in bie present disembodied condition. He cared less than nothing for fame, ante-mortem or posthumous, and probably never suspect- ed that he would be troubled by it. But Mr. Salt’s proposed book-—whether it be a labor Henry David Thoreau. of love or of money—is not without sufficient justification, and fortunate indeed would it be tor the reading world if there were as much to justify the ten thousand or million other biographies, past, presentand future. The treth of this statement will, Ithink, be visible to any in- telligent person who dees me the honor to listen to what I have to say concerning OUR AMERICAN STOIC. The Thereaus were, as the name indicates, of French extraction, John Thoreau, who emigrated to New England in 1773, having been bora in the parish of St. Helena, Island of Jersey, in 1754.. He married in Boston in 1781, Miss Jane Burns, the daughter of a Scotchman from the neighberhood of Stirling Castle. From Boston he moved to Concord in the same State in 1890, and died there the following year. His son, John, married in 1812 Miss Cynthia Dunbar, a native of Keene, N. H., and four children, two boys and two girls, were the results of that union, Henry David, the third ehilad and suhjectof this sketch, making his first appearance upon the stage ot life July 12, 1817. The father, after losing the littie money left him by his pur- ental progenitor, departed from Boston, where he bad lost it and settled in Concord, where he managed to make a very modest living ior himself and family by the manufacture of He is described as a small, deaf and unobtrusive man, plainly clad and minding his own business.’’. His wife was—to use a familiar phrase— on the con- trary quite the reverse, being a large wo- man, a lively and long talker, and general supervisor of everybody's business. Nota bad woman by any means, but rataer loud in conversatiop, and occasionally in dress—as the following anecdote indicates: In 1857, be- ing then 70 years old, she made a neigh- berbood call upon Miss Mary Emerson—aunt ef Ralph Waldo—a maiden iady of &. She wore on that occasion very lengthy bonnet ribbens of bright yellow, and 4 (ex > 4 * 4, * a j we | : 5 * I 7 1 lead pencils. 8 I 7 7 7 5 * ; a . Shi = * 2 ‘ * seemed to enjoy them. As abe rose to go, afterthe asuel extended discussion of the weather and publicand private affairs, Miss Emerson sald: ‘*Perhaps you noticed, Mrs. Thoreau, that I closed my eyes during your call. 1 did so because I did not wish to look on the ribbens ou are wearing, so unsuitable fora child of od and a person of your years.’’ « Tho- reau’s rep 7 is not recorded. 80 farasican discover, Henry David did not resemble father or mother physically or mentally; owing nothing to inheritanee— - GINAL in eve med by some friend more „that he must die and woul to heaven if he was good, he said, after listening to an explana- tion of heavenly joy: No, ldon’t want to die and go to . because I can’t carry my sied to such a fine place as that.

His wants were the fewest and sim plest peoss!i- ble; only the absolute necessities of life— food, clothés and shelter—aund what was as necess to him, books and writing material. 4 pists ver end hich thinker, be never in- u ged in Iuxuries of any sort; nor is there | any hint that any time he ever seriously | thought of committing matrimony, or even 0 much as tell in love. But stoic as he was in all these things, he was capable of deep and strong affection,and those who knew him dest loved him best. In 1840, while teaching school in Concord, Thoreau seems to have been fully admitted to the circle of which Emerson, Alcott and Mar- garet Fuller were the recognized leaders. He associated on equal terms with all the mem- bers of that oircie, and with others who could not be called members, but yet were in close communication. Such men as Theodore Parker, F. H. Hedze, C. A. Bartol, Ellery Channiag, Hawthorne, Freeman Clark, and the brilliant women whom Margaret Fuller drew around her. But Thoreau was always bimself—never an imitation or reflection of anybody else. He bad his own ideas, and 80 borrowed none; though ready enough to ex- | change, when the other party had ideas of his Tnat familiar intercourse with such spirits as then made up what may be called Emersonian society bad a profound fnfluence vpon him cannot be doubted, but it did not inthe least diminish his originality; rather stimulated it, I fancy. At any rate he soon took an entirely new de- parture which astonished even the most original aud unconventiongl of his friends. And.it is to this departure, directly and lud rectly, that Thoreau Is mainly indebted for the immortality he has apparently achieved. Through his TWO YEARS’ ENCAMPMENT on the shore of a small lake in the Walden woods, a mile south of Concord village, he is best known to the world at large; and the book which tells how be lived and what he did, saw and thought there, always has been and will be the most popular of bis works. When it was that he first conceived the novel idea ls unknown, for he never bad a confidant; but in a letter to his friend Channing, dated March 5, 1845, he alludes to it in a way that. shows the idea was then fully developed in his mind. Near the end of the same month I borrowed an axe,’’ he says, and went down to the woods by Walden Pond, nearest to where I intended to build my house, and began to cut down some tall arrowy white pines, still in their youth, for own. chotce Haethorne's Old Manse. timber. The axe was borrowed from Bron- son Alcott and the land from Emerson, ‘‘who, for the sake of his walks and his wood fire, — wane land on both sides of Walden ond. He does not seem to have been in a hurry (it being part of his philosophy of life neither to hurry nor worry about anything) and not until late in the autumn was the chimney finished and the hermitage ready for the her- mit. Then he writes: ‘‘lhave thus a tight shingled and plastered house, ten feet wide by fifteen feet long, and eight-foot posts, with a garret and a closet, a large window on each side, two trap doors, one door at the end, and a brick fire- place opposite.

The Latest Ball at Waukesha—The Large Number ef St. Louisans at Kye Beach and Jamestown, R. 1.—The Height of the Season at White Sulphur springs, Va. — Har Harbor and I . F you are going at all, dear girl, be off and away now, for that long- talked-of, eager- ly looked-forward-to month of August bas arrived, and if one believes all that one has heard before- hand, society has been shaken up from center to circumfer- ence at the resorts, as though by aa electric shock, and every- * body has been thrown into an ecstatic, delightful whirlpool of mad- Gening delights. Tennis games, teas, and all such mila diversions been thrown aside fer polo, snd giddy balls. For this one month the social world is topsy turvey, and each individual is a whirlygig, how very de- lightful, how perfectly charming, if—only if there were more men inthe whirl. What are they about, that they lose such opportunities. It seems that the watering place men grow scarcer and scarcer every year. Pleasant sunshiny mornings draw together upon the beach, or upon the plazzas, or atthe casino, @ great many ladies, leaders in the social world, and, of course, all of the available men, how many? Groups of six or eight girls, all ot them lovely and equally charm- ing, hang about one callow youth, who strives to be a shade less awkward and sel- conscious, and really does his very best to be agreeable to all, at the risk of having his eyes crogsed in the effort to look six ways at once, and of losing his hearing dy reason of the multiplicity of sweet sounds which are poured into both ears at one time from all sides. Delightful for the boys, but death to the girls, for everybody knows well enough that mo girl likes to go even halves with another girl im her beau, and when it comes to dividing him up into sixths, and only a college boy at that, itis something dreadful. Besides these youths, we bear that there area few elderly young men of questionable age, but unques- tioned wealth and position, assuming the airs and follies of the youths, who might well be their sons or grandsons; and we hear also that they are not only acceptable but received with open arms, 60 to speak; that they are prime favor- ites withthe eweet young giris, whe und no objection to companionship in the disparity ofyears. Where are the marriageable young men, those who have reached the age of dis- cretion and have amassed enough of this world’s goods to look about for some one to help them enjoy it? At their desks, forsooth, amassing more. A little vacation of a couple of weeks, of complete relaxation, hunt ing or fishing at some ulet places has been eufficient for them. There are the fellows that the anxious mammas are looking for, Dut they are not to be found at the water ing-places, as ‘‘befo’ the wah. Clearly, the summer resorts are not the places they used to be to take our daughters husband-hunting. They had better stay at home and look sweet on the doorstep. But something must be done for the amuse- ment of these young girls, who are said to be prettier and more fascinating and are to be founda in greater numbers than ever before. A crue! jest has been started the rounds of the papers that some enterpris- ing hotel keeper had hired a lot of gallants, like the professional! diners out, to draw the = and make things lively. That would ve been a capital idea if it had not leaked out, but pow every girl is tortured with the suspicion that her very best and most attert- tive bean is only a professional. This howl of distress from the resorts should not affect, however, our girls. The fittest always sur- vive. if there are any beaux there at all, and there must be some, our giris will be sure to catch them. - n ON THE LAKES. Maj.

OCONOMOWOC. Oconomowoc, Aug. 8.—We have reached the height of the season, aad every place is as crowded as can be, both cottages and hotels overfiowing. We are gay of course, but somehow. our 11 read tamely beside those that come frem the Eastern resorts. All the same we enjoy ourselves, for we have ajolly set, and are here for agoed time, without any frills. These loveiy moonlight nights are utilized jnst as late as propriety and chaperones will permit. Hayracks, coy- ered with straw and loaded with young peo- ple, drawn by four horses, peranibulate the streets, and night is made ideous with the screeching anc iaughing and blowing of tin horns and ringing of bells. Now and then one more decorous will weander slowly along, and the famiilar strains of some popular song, well sung, wl fail pleasaatiy upon the ear. Last week we bad the annual dall of the Yacht Club at Draper Hall, and a hop at Springbank. On the 15th there will bea grand ball at the Jones House in honor of the Mu- waukee Light Horse Squadron, which camps at Sand Beach, from the 10th to the Ii7th. Only think of the boys and the buttons! Mrs. George Lomax has a cottage here this sum- mer. Mrs. Wm. Duncan and children have been here for a few days. Mra. Edgar Tiiton and her little son are expected Saturday to join Mrs. E. O. Stanard and Miss Ella Stanard, who have been here several weeks. — ARTIRE. PETOSKEY. PETOSKEY, Mich., Aug. 6.—There are con- stant additions to the party of St. Louisans here. Veryfew are leaving. All who come seem desirous to remain until cooler weather at home. The Episcopalians havea lovely lit- tle church, not long completed, but paid for. Here many of the 8. Louisans meet every Sunday morning, coming from the places around. Bishop Tuttie has preached here. He is much respected and admired, and seems to captivate all he meets by his frank, genial yet dignified manners. Yesterday aparty of us visited Harbor Springs, celebrated for its many sprines of very coo! and pure water. We also visited the Ghureh of the Holy Infancy at the Ottawa Mission, about a hun- dred years old. ‘The Mission was started by Pierre Marquette 200 years ago. We called to see the famous Margaret Boyd, one of the yOttawas. She is said to be nearly a hundred years old, yet looks voung for one of that age. She has a comfortable cottage, where she re- ceives visitors, who buy her bead work and baskets. She is famous in history and song and has transiated the books of the Mission into the Indian language. Among the latest arrivais at Petoskey are Mrs. F. A. Steer, and daughters, Mrs. K. G. Clifford, rs. A. 6. Simon, Miss Mabel Simon, Mrs. Oliver I. Green, Maj. B. D. Lee and tamily, George D. eReynolds and family, Mrs. B. W. Wilson and children, Mrs. George D. Barnard and her sister, Miss Leathe Tyndale. GENEVA LAKE.

J., Aug. 7.— One of the most brilliant military receptions and balls ever given in New Jersey was that which was tendered recently te the Com mander-in-Chief Gov. Leon Abbett, by his staff end the general officers of the Second Brigade, N. G. S. N. J. at the Monmouth House, Spring Lake, N. J., on Friday evening last. Two thou- sand invitations were issued and ‘accepted by the most prominent people in the State. The large dining hallwas agiow with streamers, shields, flags, arms and fowers. At the eust end ofthe main reom the Governor received his visitors, assisted by a bevy of ladies. They were all elegantly attired and all carried Marschall Nell roses. The order ef dances was a pretty souvenir of the occasion and contained sixteen numbers. The dance music was furnised by Voss s Orochestraijand the Seventh Regiment Band was stationed onthe verandah and discoursed martial music. Supper was served a la carte in the music-room which was decorated with lanterns and flags, andthe menu which was selected by a celebrated chef was a remark- abie one. There were guests of note and distinction from every State, and St. Louis was abiely represented, the St. Louis ladies being considered exceptionally pretty vo- men. Among the leading St. Louis ladies often noticed atthe entertainments at Spring Lake are pretty Mrs. E. V. F. Ritter, Mrs. James L. Blair. Urs. John S. Moffitt, and Mr. W. H. Stone. A. LERT. BEAVER LAKE. BEAVER LAKE, HARTLAND, Wis., Aug. 4.— Hartiand, with its two iakes,Beaver and Pine, is very delightful. It has everv charm of nature that can furnish amusement and is therefore much Visited. The cottages are very pretty and several of them are occupied by St. Louis families. Fishing is the chief amusement bere, and both the St. Louis men and women * ithugely and have accom- plished some fine feats this summer in that sport. The ladies are not at all afraid of the bites, and land their prey with consideraple awility and skill. Boating ie delightful here. There are three or four steam yachts on the lake. There is a hop every two weeks at which »retty tollettes are worn and which the gentiemen irom Chicago and Milwaukee run down to attend. Nothing is more en- joyed, however, than the fish bakes corn bakes in the open air Moonlight hayrides are much in favor. On rainy nights there ie music and all sorte of in- door social amusements. Miss Nannie Thom- as, a pretty schoolgirl of St. Louls, has won an enviable reputation by her fine elocution- ary powers. Among the st. Louisans sojourn- ing here are Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Ryan and . ey 22 2 ? . ae 4 * 11 a . 0 5 5 SP ae ws 4 _- _— We 4 at * * Sf of * F 2 * 2 a. al — Nn = ere een * IMI. r n 2 P . . . . m your city the prettiest girls at ö sdecidediy the beau of the place and the favorite with both the unm and married belles.

The e will towards the erection ofa tholie chapel at Jamestown. The concert was largely attended. Those who wang were Mrs. Charles Faris and Mr. Howard Benolst, Mr. George Tower, Jr., Miss Kehior and Miss Marte Peuz- net, besides several others. The selections were all choice and attractive, and the affair socially and fnancialiy was a success. Sailing and tennis are the chicf amusements at Jamestown, and the ladies in their sailing costumes and tennis gowns are always charm- Ing and chic. Mrs. James T. Van 8. Barrett is considered quite the pretti- est of ali the young married ladies from 8. Loals. Her husband has been ili all during the summer. His pretty wife, his grandmotber, Mrs. Swearingen, and his mother, Mrs. Rebert King, have all been de- voted watchers at his bedside and are eagerly looking for his complete convalescence. Mrs. Barrett, arenes always surrounded by her friends when she takes a necessary rest from attendance on ber husband, never mingiés in the social gayeties of the place for there isa shadow on ber sweet face wh list at Jamestown, for it was here last year that her only child, ber little daughter Harper Milton, died sud- denly, a grief from which neither of .the arents have yet recovered. The giris from t. Louis are all excellent at natatorial feats, and when the party go overto Newport to bathe they hold their own with the experi- enced swimmers. There isone young iady particuiarly from the Mound Olty who looks like a sea nymph in her picturesque bathing suit, and swims like one, too. NEWPORT. NEwPorT, R. I., Aug. 6.—St. Loulsans come and go here, its close proximity to Jamestown preventing many of them from taking up ete eg quarters. It is pleasanter to be domiciled there with one’s own familiar friends and run over here when ever the fancy happens to strike you. It ls a fashionable thing hereto have s o’clock teas on the pluzzas of the cottages. They are very pretty and picturesque, viewed from a turn- out, bowling by, and must be pleasant. Amongthe charming features of the place are the tollettes of the ladies, pure white, in- stead of biack, as eleewhere. Atthe ball at the Casino the other night, there was scarcely anything worn except white muslin and lace and nina silk, bodice en V,. and the skirts tight and sheath- like, displaying the figure withevery move- ment, and the movements here are very guick and lively. One might almost thiak they were racing for dear life, and it is per- fectly wonderful how they came out with any clothes upon them, worth speaking of, but they do. lwassurprised at this, for every- thing except dapcing is so stately, dignified and statuesque” The ladies all drive here, and they doit well, not with both hands holding the ribbons, as our girls, but with one, leaving the whipin rest, and the tiger sits behind, with folded arms, as rigid as if electrified or mesmerized. When the tables are turned, and the coachman does the work, my lady lounges in a most aristocratic, lazy fashion upon the cushions of her Victoria, and looks the impersonation of dolce far niente. When one walks in this place of car- riages, one must be very careful to indicate by the slow, elegant, leisurely fashion in which they saunter, that they are simply walking because they please to do 80, and have no object in life which necessitates their quick- ening their pace. Iforgot to say that Mrs. Taran Stevensis the only flashy, ill dressed woman that I see here, and that our people— matrons or maidens—are always well dressed. I met Miss Marie Puegnet at the Casino, the other day, with a party of friends. She is statu- esque enough. Miss Annie Boeckler was here with her mother for a few days, also Miss Carrie Pope, who is domiciled at Jamestown. Mrs. N. M. Wright and Miss Annie Wright are expected here this week. Mr. George T. Par- ker, who has been doing the Virginia resorts, arrived here this week. CLI. BAR HARBOR. Bar HARROR, Aug.6.—The Atlantic squad- ron has coue and the littie ripple of gayety has subsided. We have been looking forward to August, but the prospect ils not encourag- ing. Inmtrath, I think that the cottage lite here (there are at least 150 of them) has ruined hotel life. The cottages are superb, some of them costing over $100,000, and society is correspondingly exclusive and formal. It isno longer the go-as-you-please piace which it used to be, with campiag out and fishing parties and strawrides. The Kebo Valley Club-house is also responsible fora lack of gayety at the Bar. They havea grand dall-room there, wherein the notabies disport themselves in quiet seclusion, leaving the hotel hops neglected. The Vanderbilts are occupying their cottage here, as are also the Blalnes, who are living a rather re- tired lite. The Cushmans nave a lovely cottage, and have had with them Miss Mary Ames, who Was attracted a good deal of attention. The Cushmans have a beautiful team of handsome bays that draw a park wagon and Mies Ames handles the ribbons with ease and grace. Mount Desert, as you know, is surrounded by water, and, naturally boating comes in for a larsé share of popular favor. They have a canoe club with over three hundred members, and nothing can be prettier than the canoe paddles, which we have often. The long line of birches flying the club pennant in the bows and private colors in the stern, winding in and out, single flie, in the wake of the Commodore, makes a beautiful picture. They will have weekly receptions at the club- house this month, and a grand moonlight reception, with brilliant Hluminations be- side, toward the latter part of August. We have no pronounced belle this season, but there is no doubt that Miss Ames is one of the bundsomest giris here.’ Mrs. 8. 8. Cole and her pretty daughter of Vandeventer place are expected this week, also Mr. and Mrs. L. OC. Nelson and son, and Mr. John Roberts of the Liadeil Hotel, with bis pretty bride. Mrs. and Miss Garnes u are here. JACK. NARRAGANSETT PIER.

LONDON, Juty 30. = HERE is no occupation more amysing—until one wearies of it—than driving on the esplan- ade at Brightos, which one may cail the Long Branch of England, save that considering the vast extent of the British watering place the American resort is only a camp compared with it. Thefine ex- panse of sea, the white chalk cliffs, the long rows of bathing ma- ehines, lowering the British matron to the water by windlass, the lively music of the band on the roof of the aquarium and the gay crowds of visitors make Up @ scene that, while it is novel, is wonder- fully entertaining. Yesterday was atypical Brighton afternoon. When our trap turned into the Parade at 4 o’cloek or thereabouts the three miles of its Jength were all wind, glare and fasbion,’’ for this London by the Sea has no shade and the sun fora marvel was bright and even warm. The British schoolboy was very much en evidence, with his plug hat of a grown man, his collar of an infant of 6 years, and his jacket of a waiter, smartly gloved and offering his very slender arm to his big sister or mamma. Englishwomen were out in force, very straigut, very stiff, very much rouged.

She imelined her head constantly to acquaintances, trusting to the elevation of the carriage, as to thé stage, to tone down crude effect inte soft brilllancy. Almost every woman one passed was powdered, some thickly aud unpleasantly. Many had darkened the eyelashes and prows and the hollows under the eyes. One pretty girl came to speak to the occupants of acarriage drawn up by the walk. She was fresh and sweet and fair and exquisitely dressed, but her lashes were powdery, Uke a miller’s, except that she had blacked instead of whited them. One sees evough of this sort of thing in New York, but English fashion is much more unupleasantiy artificial People tell me that English wemen powder because they take too much wine and it makes their noses glow. At all events, it is not pretty. 8 Hats at Brighton. The crowd was motiey, but less so than at Long Branch or Rockaway. ‘Arry and his ‘ariette do not get fifty miles out of London. The turnouts clanked with silver and were gay with colors as during driving hour at Newport; the promenaders had the lighter tone of Narra ansett Pier, while the bath chairs and the donkeys . the cutter- riaged, often brown-sail boat and the heavy. blue-green atmospheric tones, only partially relieved by the chalk, lent a piqu- antly foreign tone. The women wore white or a rich red mauve that glowed in the sun- shine or canary yeliow or blue combined with cream or gray. They dared contrasts of color that would be ventu few Ameril- cans. Out on the end of the chain pier was a tall girl in a vividly red gown of a thin silk that swathed her figure with every puff of the breeze.

Of course, for this pur- pose nature’s own product, water, fs the best, hot or cold, or iced, if taken_at proper times and in proper quantities, which means drink little and often in order to replace the continual waste going on from ineensibie per- sviration and respiration, the longs throwing off moisture with every breath, making essen- tial to our well being the gratification of this matural ‘thirst for water which all the deli- clous beverages ever compounded will not assuage. Yet, one does not wish to live by water alone, particularly since there are other things very refreshing and healthful. Next to water comes m /lk—fresh, cold milk, as it comes from the cow. Everybody, how- over, Cannot like ft In its simple state, eo for them may be substitutedamilk shake ora milk punch; a glass of milk or cream poured over crushed ice and dashed with a little brandy or rum, or, better still, cream frappe, half frozen ice cream, into which is poured a little brandy, just enough to flavor it. This is better known as ‘‘Delmonico Ice Cream. There are some persons who can not drink sweet milk at all who are exceedingly fond of buttermilk, than which there is nothing more wholesome and strengthening, the light seid taste making it particularly refreshing. It fs considered a valuable tonic and stimulant to a weak stom- ach, and is said to oulet the nerves and banish Insomnia; a far less dangerous expedient than the hurtful drugs so freely induiged in by many of the gentler sex. Some savants have asserted that people need never die, it they crculd only know exactly how torepair the waste constantly going on which brings on gradually decay and death. This no doubt is true, but how to discover the means of defying old age and death is the problem. One wise man asserts that in BUTTERMILK cornbread with Irieh potatoes will be found the wonderful ingredients, which are the surest antidotes against these onslaughts by the most dreaded foes to the human race. He maintains that in these homely articles of food and drink may be found the elements of immortality! This statement must be taken with several grains of allowance, but whether true or not, buttermilk has certalniy some virtues which cannot be too highly esteemed. Next to water and milk comes the simple lemonade, made by filling a glass nearly ful of crumbled ice and squeezing into it th juice of haifa lemon, and stirring into. the mixture sugar to taste. This has been im- proved on by experimental mixtures of drinks, untill now it serves as a simple base for many delicious compounds. It will be great- ly improved by adaing the juice of oranges end pine apples, and If something a little stronger is wanted, a dash of claret gives the needed strength. An exg lemonade is also very much liked by some persons. Dissolve a halt sugar in one pint of water and ad » it the juice of fourlemons. Stira moment aud add a quantity of crushed ice, Now stir carefally into the mixture the yelks and the whites of four eggs which have been viously beaten until very light. Serve at once. For an invalid a teaspoonful of crasned ice and a tablespoonful of good sherry into which is broken a raw egg is very nutricious and palatable. Iced tea has become a household tipple aud 1s fast passing from ite primitive state, simptie cold tea, into unrecognizable and de- lightful forms, appreciated by others beside the feminine tea topers. By squeezing a little lemon into the glass of crushed ice and tea ite flavor is very much improved, and by pouring it 2 from one glass to another uite a nice bead is raised, giving it an ap ing appemrance.

(Written for the SUNDAY PoOsT-DrspatTcu.] HERE are few books as essential as a die- tionary from a liter- ary standpoint. Few persons are ca le of writing a! of any length without reference to the die- tionary to find out the exact meaning and correct spelling of words they hed considered of small importance until the time come to deter- mine whether their knowledge of the meaning and spell- ing could be relied upon without any doubt or uncertainty as to its correctness. It ia wonderful how little the most intelligent people know when forced to be perfectly ac- curate, leaving all room for doubt and oon- jecture in the background. It is also discour- aging to the student to find how little he can rely upon his own knowledge or the accuracy of his memory and information in regard to very familiar subjects when deprived of his books of reference. Few persons have a vocabulary of words beyond those com- monly used in the every day intercourse with familiar friends and acquaintances. It is so often said he or she converses elegantly or Auently, when really strict attention tothe words and phrases used would prove there was but little beauty, elegance or purity to be found in the language used by those persons, who merely Lave a gift for throwing together words and stringing out sentences with an apparent fluency of expression. They havea det ot words at their command and those words are used with many exclamations, ad- jectives, etc., to express every sentiment of their familiar intercourse with their friends and companions. Thus, people who are the most superficial in knowledge of what consti- tutes pure and elegant English, and who could mot write two consecutive sentences cor- rectly, according to the rules of rbetoric and grammar, get a cheap reputation for being good conversationualists.’’ A young lady who taiks a great deal and fills ber converse with gestures and exclamation points takes great pride in her reputation among a certain class, who do not know good English when they hear it, for being considered a good talker, and was beard to Say recentiy: On, yes; | am a good talker andcan talk with anybody, rnd my friends often say, ‘Why don’t you write, . had your gift of expressing wyself I'd make something of itand write forthe papers or periodicais.’*’ Seeing that young lady take a pen to indite a ahort letter to a near rela- tion, one of the persons who had been left under the impresslon that she had a fine command of words and knowledge of the English language was surprised to find that she did not really know the correct spell- ing of many of tne words that familiarly passed her lips, and was totaliy at a loss with- outa dictionary when forced to write a short letter. It is a different matter when one comes to putting words down upon paper. One's knowledge is then tested. In talk- ing words can be indistinctly pronounced and slurred over, especially by those whotalk rapidly. One set of words can ex- press many thoughts without notice, where an author must have a good vocabulary or his 3 will be charfiicterized by tame ness an INELEGANOCE OF EXPRESSION. Every young and inexperienced scribe who aspires to original literary productions,should have a good dictionary and a Thesauras to assist him in selecting different words to con- vey the same meaning, if necessary. After Awhile he acquires, before he knows, a good vocabulary written upon the tabiets of his memory, which may serve bim well when forced to produce matter without the assist- ance of bis books. A great many writers are foreed to produce manuscript without the ald of a library. Such persons often find tuat a good diction- ary takes the place of the library. jomparatively few languages possess die- tionaries. Thev are few in number as com- pared to other books. Morethan half belong to European languages, of which five surpass the rest in number and variety of their dic- tionaries, namely, Greek, Latin, French, En- glish and German. Ihe value of a dictionary and the richness of its vocabulary depend on the carefulness and extent of for examples, which can only be complete when it has extended to the Whole literature of the language. If concordances and full indexes were more universal the search for examples would be much more facilitated. When the term dictionary is used the mean- ing, ie apparent to every one at once as a book ining a collection of words of a language lect arranged alphabetically or in defin- er and containing explanations ® same or some other language. great and most essential point thatthe words belonging to a dictionary should be very many and also arranged in definite order, accompanied by interpreta- tions. When the words are few in number or only a small part of those belonging to one subject, the dictionary is not complete. A collection of words without explauations or with partial explanations and ineom- plete with a subject are called a vo- cabulary of words. The collection of words alphabetically arranged and often found inthe back of a book, put there by the author, is called an index. When a work contains alotot words and subjects, with each word belonging to the suDject with ex- planations, and under each word the phrase containing the word is addedto the refer- euce, it is called a concordance, such a work in connection with the Holy Writ adds greatly to the interest of Bible study, and clergymen could not do witbout their Bible Concordance. It enables them to study the Scripture intelligently and with more benefit to them- selves and others, also saves the trouble and time of looking up words and references without a guide. The most familiar Bible student cannot tell where the same words and similar texte are found from memory. The Oxford Bible is complete in itself, containing tables of references and a concordance with everything necessary to an intelligent and comprehensive study of the Old and New Testaments. Before the Oxford edition came out the Bible STUDENT AND TEACHER Was compelied to carry aroused a large **Oruden’s Concordance’’ or a number of very much the seareh smatior works upon the different books in the New and Old ‘estament numbering in. all itea large collection of volumes. The Ox- ra edition has made the Bible an intelligent and interesting study to many who often neg- lected Sacred Writ because they could not un- derstand or comprehend many of its mean- ings without an extensive search over a num- ber of outside autuorities.

This does away with ge to so many articles scattered through arts of the work to get a complete view of esubdject. On the other band, as requiring an Index, it is less convenient for frequent rot- erence on minor points. Dictionary comes from a Latin word and lexicon is a correspond- ing word of Greek origin, meaning & book of or for words. There have been a great many names given to dictionaries, too many by far to mention. An excelient book, and supposed to be one of the first of its kind, was A LARGE FOLIO VOLUME rinted in Strasburg about 1475, and entitled ‘Pharetra Auctoritates et-dicta , Dictorum, Philosopborum et-poetarum Continens. A @ictionary of language should contain all the words which may be onably looked for in it, so arranged as be readily and easily found and 80 explained as to make their meaning and if possible their use clear to those who bave a competent knowledge of the language or languages in which the ex: ianations are given. No aictionary could e written which would make every word easy and plain to a very rome. child; that is impossible, but they should be as easy and simple as possibie. A full and complete dictionary of a great literary language cannot be compiled without great labor, patience, knowledge and skill, and one must be employed years, a lifetime, in collecting, adjusting, correcting, complet- ing the labor of many previous generations of workers. Such a dictionary should eontalu all the words of a language. A great library caunot be selected with regard to the intrinsic literary merit of its works. It must comprise all, and procure them without regard to their value or worthiessness, as it is imposeidie to tell what may be valued in fu- ture generations. So a complete and stand- ard dictionary can make nochoice. Words ob- selete, newly coined, barbarous, vulgar, at- fected; temporary, provincial, local, those belonging to peculiar clasees, professions, pursuits and trades must all find their places, the one guestion being the evidence of their existence as words. Of course they are not ail received with equal honor but their defects noted and pointed out, The French Academy at first rejected ail technical terms, but it was compelled by popular clamor and the success ‘of Furetiere’s Dictionary, in which many were admitted, to admit them in ite second and subsequent additions. Dr. Johnson said a dictionary intended for general use should include the words belong lug to every profession. Obsolete words are admitted by Johnson, Little, and other firet-class lexicograpecs only after they have remained in use acertain period. The great German dictionaries admit dialects and are generally more complete than French and English dictionaries. The Chinese give in their standard dictionaries every character known to exist, though many are erroneous, corrupt and vulgar. Johnson omits all words belonging to proper names, but they as well as other words belong to a language. The dictionaries accepted by ——— le as authority and most generally used are Webster's and Worcester’s. Noah Webster, the great American lexicographer, was descended on bis father’s side from ; WM. WEBSTER, of Warrickshire, England. His father was a farmer, aud he was corn and bred in Hartford, Conn., October 16, 1758. He went to Lale in 1774, and after graduating, he supported him- self by teachiug while prosecuting study of law. His experience as a teacher convinced him of the need of better instruction books in English and he couceived the idea ot ane dictiona- arv from the fact of his frequent inability to find proper defiyitions to words from the dictionaries in current use. He endeavored to supply the need by bis ‘‘grammatical in- stitute of the EKuglisbh language,’’ the first part of which appeared in 178, the second and third the following years. He published his dissertation upon the English tanguage in 1789. In 1806 he published his *‘Compendious Dictionary of the English Language,’’ but this was only preparatory to a larger work. In 1824 he sailed for Europe to complete his research, and spent some time in Paris, after which he continued his labors in the library of Cambridge Uni- versity, where he finished the dictionary. It was published in 1528, and a second edition with many additions appeared in 1841. He — eet the revision of an appendixa few ays before his death, which took place May 20, 1843. Since his death several revised and enlarged editions of the dictionary have ap- peared. It was the result of much labor and research, and on this account, as well as for the clearness and carefulness of its definitions, it has held a leading place among dictionaries of the English language for many years, more especially in Ainerica. Woroester’s Dictionary of the English lan- guage, in which tho author had the assistance of many collaborators, especially for the ex- planation of technical terms, was compiled at Boston in 1860. The difference between Webster and Wor- cester was that Worcester represented the language as it was, while Webster tried to improve it and setit forth as he thought it ought to be. The successive editions of Webster’s work havé seceded steadily from his radical plan in that there is now little esential difference between the two great dictionaries that have so long been cited as authority upon pronunciation and definition in America. In Eugland the great English lexrcograpber, Samuel Johnsen, was first employed in 1747, by several eminent booksellers to prepare a dictionary of the English language in two follo volumes. They agreed to pay Lim only 1,500 guineas, and he had to pay out of that several poor men of letters who assisted him in the humbler parts of ulis task. He thought he would finish his dictionary by 1750, but it was 1755 before he gave his huge volime to the world. The dictionary bas been 90 much a1 tered that it can. scarcely be called the penne’ work now. But Johnson’s other works have wziven his eccentric character sut- ficient reputation, anu his life by Boswell is as widely known as his dictionary. A noted writer avs: The memory of other authors is kept allye by their works. THE MEMORY of Johnson keeps many of his works alive. The old philosopber in his brown coat with metal buttons, a shirt which ought to be at wash, n fingers, tearing his meat like a tiger, swallowing his tea in oceans, is still with us and well known to us after seventy years in the grave. Two great new dictionaries of the English language are, being prepared, and it is pre- dicted by many persons who make such sub- jects a serious study, and who have examined the volumes already in print, that one or the other, perhaps both of these new dictionaries, will be given the foremost rank as authority upon the pronunciation and detinition or words 80 long held by Webster and Worcester in America and by other au- thorities in England. So long as these dic- tionaries are very expdensive and the public can purchase an 1840 edition of Webster fora few dollars, Webster will be the popular die- tionary. The new dictionary, supported by the Century at an enormous expense, will con- tain aix volumes when complete, at $10 a volume. it is being prepared under Prof. William Dwight Whitney, EG... Des LL. D., and will contain 200 , 000 worde. It i called an encyclopedic iexicon of the English language. here are three volumes already out. The otber great dictionary is under the auspices of the Pbilo- logical Society, and is founded on historical — and the material gathered by the bilological Society. The dictionary was be- gun in 1856 and resolved that it should contain every word occurring in the literature of the language and would admit as authority all Engllau books, ‘‘unwisely excepting such as are devoted purely to scientific subjects as treatises on electricity, etc.’’ The foundation of the dictionary was to have been the reading ot all English books not purely scientific, tor example, by volun- teers. In October 1864, 1149 had been read and 860 were in hand, It is founded mainly upon the material collected by the Philological Society, with the assistance of many scholars and men of science, principally James A. H. Murray, B. A. Toad, Hon. M. A. Oxon, L. I. D. Edin, C. L. Deneln, etc. Sometimes the President of the Philologieal Society. There is bet one volame of this elaborate work in print and it containa all words commencing with the let- ter A and part of those commencing with B. here about 31,254 words la this volume.

About 10 o’elock the enemy commenced an attack on our posta Hougoumont. It was maintained throughou the dav with the utmost gallantry hese brave t „„ This seems to make the beginning of the action as early as 10 in th morning. As to the end of it, Wellington says **About7 o’clock the enemy made a desper« ate attempt with cavalry and infantry, sup- ported by the fire of artillery, to force our left center near the farm of La Haye Sainte, Having observed that the troops retired from this attack in great confusion, I determined to attack the enemy, and immediately ad. vanced the whole line of infantry supported by the cavalry and n: The attack suc- ceeded at 2. int.’’ It was made just as the sun was se K. and before daylight had gone on that long midsummer eve the army Napoleo nm was PRACTICALLY ANNIHILATED.

Even had Napoleon won at Waterloo, as he „ he could hardly have escape: the same defeat elsewhere, for all Europe was then against him. But Waterloo did ‘‘decide the destiny of Europe,’’ as Napoleon’s vic- tories at Marengo and Friedland had done years before. At St. Helena he was inclined to grumble at Wellington, and said to Las Cassas: He owes a good candle to old Blucher;without him Ido not know where his Grace would be; for my part, 1 surely would not be here. His troops were admirable; his disposal of them pitiable, or rather he made no dispasgalof them.

ROCKFORD, III., Aug. 9. HE sensational develop- ments regarding George Jacob Bcbweinfurth, who claims to be Christ, have roused the good people of this city and vicinity to a high state of indigeation. Schwelnfurth, uu bas been alleged, deciared withouta blush that the Illegitimate children born under his root were conceived of the Holy Gheost.’’ This blasphemous statement is reported to be be- lieved by his fellowers, but it only acts as a brand to set on fire the indignation of the citizens. A number of strong-minded citizens are talking of forming a vigilance committee and calling on the imposter. If some one will make bold enough to take the lead a mob ean be formed lu a single nights that will go te the Weldon farm, burn the im- poster's house, ride him on a rail and then give hima coat of tar and feathers. II is feared some of the mob would not stop at this and for that reason the cooler heads advise against such a course. In an afternoon paper last Thursday Rev. . L. Conde made an open attack upon Schwelnfurth and says: In bearing with this crime against Godand man we shall be made ere with ite shame and in- vite the just punishment of Jeho We are to havea «reat Gathering of Knights Templar in our city next week. If professing Christians are going to remain silent mach longer and wink at the acts of this deset then I would call on each compantos&ir Kaight to defend the honor of the name most sacred in all true Masonic kvighthood.Something must be done either under human or divine law to suppress this vite imposture. Wo be on the Lord's side send a token. Charles A. Works, State’s Attorney, has said repeatedly ne could do nothing in a legal way to suppress the imposter, as it would be impossible to «et one woman te testify alnst Sohwelnfurth. he women and all the followers of Schwein furt are aware of the excited condition ef the people, and as though toappease them and explain the situation they have issued tre following manifesto: * THEIR MANIFESTO. To the People af Rockford and Vicinity: We, the undersigned, members of this faznily or assembiy of Mount Zion, desire to bar urnte you a word of testimony in solemn truth and verify as to the relution that exists and has ever existed between the opposite sexes. Mr. Schweinfurth has from the very beginning of the history of the Church Triumphant taucht us that to rise to the divine plane of living it je absolutely necessary for the married people to practice continence and the unmarried chastity, both ia the etrictest sense of the word. In this matter there is uniformly observed the greatest rigor on the art of us all. We are a family. he depertment of the men is such as it would be if the women and young ladies about tem were motbers and sisters. No looseness or impropriety would here be tolerated for one single instant. We are all ot the same opinion on this as well as all other “‘pubjects. The love existing between the sexes is purely platonic, er, more properly ex- ressed, Christade!phian—a Christly brother- ood and sisterhood in thefamily of God. The closest proximity of male and female in meeting OF purting or associating is man- fested in the shaking of hands, sor is there here aught of the nature of unpleasant con- straint or restraint. We delight thus to live. There has * us for the time being been la ld aside the idea of marrying and giving in marriage. Nor do we feel that in so doing we have jeopardized the morals of our church and society. Ourchurch is gr wey upon the foundation of absolute and divine purity of heartand life. Our society is inside the church. The church has erected her walls and bulwarks of chastity and virtue around ber society. Thus i« safety assured unto her charge and fester cbiid, which ber society is. We, a8 a churoh, believe that Jesus of N bh was conceived by the Holy Spirit of God, * that the new life was e direct impartation from God, the invisible spirit. We also believe that this same God still lives, and that when he had clothed souls in robes of virgin white he blessed some of them in ecisely the same manner that he biessed he Holy Virgin of yore. We with one voice solemnly declare, before God and mas, that inside the Church Tri- umpbhaut, or in this family, there has been no compromise of virtue and ne traversing of the civil law of this fair 8 nor this our magnificent commonwealth. It is far from us as is vice from Virtue to foster or practice or tolerate aurht that is condemned in our oi statutes. Herein have we ever exercised our- selves to have always a conscience void of offense towards God and towards mars. We are most assuredly in the closest friendship with law and order, We are in our private lives just what we desire you to believe us to . 8. WELDON, Mrs. A. WELDON, MARY L. WELDOX, JOHN K.

To & correspondent of the SUNDAY Post- DIsPaTcnm the bead of this remarkubie com- munity, whieb bas aroused public indignation and who will probably be arraigned in court, frets — following story ef his te and his was Sore in Marion County, O., in 1853, and Lam therefore 87 years of age.

I coased to expect as much of the churches as I bad in my earlier days. The ministry no longer ap- peared as the means to my ideal. I aspiriag to an absolutely ideal When I had reached a state of pérfection—I do not use moral simply as cov- ering virtue, but in its broadest sense—I looked, Ihoped, I believed ina connection between my mind and the divinity. I told m friends that unless the time came when 1 felt such a correspondence, between the real and ideal, 1 — 4 4 never be satisfied. ‘*Durieg the period of my psychical unrest I visited Albion, Mich., Evanston in this State and other places, where lI preached the word of Ged. In 1876, after a series of little events not necessary to recount, lentered the Meth- odist ministry on probation. ‘*Afier several mostus spent in pursuance of studies 1 heard of Mrs. Beekman,who was preaching a new and strange doctrine at Byron, asmalltown which is about twenty- five miles from Rockford. I was told about her by the son of a lady with whom I was boarding at Alpena, Mich. From what I heard my curiosity was areused and 1 thought I would like te see her. The facet that there were few who had any faith In her teachings did not lessen my desire, because I believed that if any one came with the truth he weuld not be well received. Ieaw her a few days after- wards, and learsed from her what her teach- ings were. Her full name was Dorinda Helen Fletcher Beekman. She came from Ohio to „ an d a few months after Mrs. Beek man’s death I called a fellowship meeting in Byron. I gave to she people r rs. Beekman’s statement of her doctrine and her position. Av that time my people leoked upen me as * pre-eminent minister. Soon afterwards there arose necessi- ties, and those in whom they became manifest looked to me. At the expiration of three or four years after Mrs. Beekman’s death the opie of whom I was at the head began to be- fieve that I represented Obristin full. Ina short time there was a stilifurther advance made, and it was boidly asserted that I was Christ; that His light, His saving power, were all in me. This belief necessarily made neces- sary the uprooting of ag deaiof the old theology and the implanting of some new. The reason why the people believed I was Christ was the effect which bad bees pro- duced upon their lives by my _ teaching. They believed that the promises of Scripture were focalized in the character whieh I was proving to be.“ „Was your divinity made manifest to you?’’ „Tes, my understanding was illuminated, and I perceived that what God promised had come to pass. „Has your church been growing since you were prociaimed the Christ, who was to come?’ „Tes, the churoh bas deen growing steadily but like allreferms this, too, is meeting with many rebuffs.’’ Speaking of the company which dwells in his house, Schweinfurth said: It has beer sald tust had twice as many women as men here, but that fis not so.’’ „Has it net been charged, too, that the life here was one of free love?“ „Tes, that and such similar villainous alle- gations have been made against us. Such an = Byron in October, 1877, in response to the in- vitation of a number of ladies in Byrea who had formed themselves into a company with aview of leading ideal lives. One of their number, who is a sister-in-law of Mre. Beek- man, and who bore the same name, bad informed them of the exposition which Mrs. Beekman gave of the Scriptures, and they all agreed that she wes just the persen to lead them to the accomp!lisiment of their pur- pose. She was sent for and became the head ofthe company. That is why my followers are sometimes called Beekmanites. They do not call themselves such, however. The name ofthe mew church is ‘The Church Tri- umphant.” 1 soon 1 that Mrs. Beekman’s doctrine was differ@ut from that ofany other evangelist of whom I had ever heard or read. The difference was that Mrs. Beekman believed in and advocated the at- tainment of the idealiife. Her idea of heaven Was not that obtained generally from the scrip- tures, that itis a place beyond the skies, or somewhere in the universe where the good will ene celestial happiness after death. She believed that heaven was right here on earth and could be realized by feliowing the self-sacrifice of Jesus, and imitating him in all thimes. She did net believe that man would be physically immortal, but that there would be a continuation ef the celestial state. „„On leaving Ieaid: ‘Ishalithank God for all eternity that I have met you.’ FORCED OUT OF THE MINISTRY. ‘*Meantime I had been la constant coorre- spondence with Mre. Beekman, who was stil! at Byron. The ideas held from childhood are not easily dispossessed, and it was not until the summer of 1879 that I had entirely and completely rejected those which I once beid about religion. Iwent to Byron about that time to see Mrs. Beekman and iived in her home fora while. Ske grew upon my mind. I believed her to be a character of divine mag- nitude and fullness. I believed this, too, iu- telligentiy. I was conversant with the lives of such women as Mme Guion, Ann Lee, Hester Ann Hogersand others, but I knew there was more of goodness in ber than there was in the ideas of any of those. The development eof the physical being up to such a mental belief as I now had was necessarily slow. I eould, dev ever, recognize the workings of life and strength in me. In youth | had deen frali—so frail that often thought I experieneed the feeling of death coming over me. I also had a chronic caterrb. ButI felt myself throwing off my physical failings; I was rising out of the infirm conditions which had surrounded my youth; my horizon was now illuminated; there was more of an object for me in life; 1 was growing stronger in soul and body. A joy wasin me. The years went d idly. Companies were established at Byron, Chicago, as Grove, Pium River and St. Charles in Illinois, Kansas City, Me., and Buena Vista, Colo. Mrs. Beekman disabused her followers of the idea that the bedy of Jesus of Nazareth was away off in the sky somewhere. She taught them that the body bad been disposed of by God and not been astronemically translated as Christians believe. Her follewers soon ceased to believe in the reappearance of the physical man of Nazareth, She taught that there would be no physical resurrection. Sheciaimed that the distance between life and death, however, could be greatly lengthened by meral better- ment. She adduced ammpie evidence that the lite of man was much shorter than it once was,from the scriptures. The decrease in the term of existence she attributed solely to the increase in immorality. If man were better be would live longer, Increase in goodness would be followed by a corresponding lengevity. Inthespring of 1883, Mrs. Beek- man died in Buena Vista, Colo. When Mre. Beekmen died, the eyes of all the members of the church which sue had founded were directed toward me. What she had teld them had prepared them for what was to come, She bad often told them that God had revealed to her that she should be the spiritual mother of him who would be the world’s Savior. The scriptural passage in which this event was foretold is the twelfth chapter of Revelations: ‘andthere appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman ciothed withthesun and the moon under her feet, and upon ber head a Crown Of tweive stars. And be breught ferth a man child who was to rule all nations with a rod ef iron, and her child was caught up to God upon his throne,’ „Tu bringin forth she interpreted en- tirely in the spiritual sense. It was so re- yealed te her. Shespoke to various persons abeut her revelation and made me acquainted with . in what way did that revelation come to ber?’ asked the correspondent. „t came to her about ten years before her death, and was simply ap internal opening of her.understanding. While about ber house. hold duties one day she was suddenly seized with on ecstacy of soul, and it was made plain to her that abe was to be that woman spoken rap- fin the ptures. „Did she tell you that you were tobe her spiritual sos!“ „es, when the conviction that I was to be the Gavior came upon her she imparted it te to believe it?’’ whatehe said meant mua whether er 0 8 The . * 12 ~ „ * » | * * = inal ay * * * 771 . there have been no marriages among us. **You don’t believe in marriage then?’’ **On the contrary, we believe that it is the holiest state man or woman can enter iato.

You know that under these coadi‘ions there weuld be very few marriages. Thus far pone have occurred among us, but one may occur at any time. Speaking about what measures he was taking to make himeelf known as the premised Mes- siah, Sehweinfurth said that be had bis min- listers and messengers in a number of places. He also said tnat he was constantly in receipt of correspondence from all parts of the coua- try. Many persons, too, came to see him from a distance, The time would come, he said, before long, when he would be generally recognized as the Son of God, and the Ubureh Triumphant would prevall.’’ _..

A SUMMER MOSAIC OF THINGS LOCAL AND GENERAL IN INTEREST. A Ceming Fashionable Wedding of Dis- ciples of Buddha—White Shoes for the Street—The Decline of Real Lace Feminine Players of the Fiute the Fashion—Bent Will Not Be With Gilmore This Year. HERE is atopic now agitating the high social circies of St. Louis society both at home and abroad. It is, what will be the ceremony of a certain wedding that will be celebrated in i ; Uh the extreme West way, End during the fall? Ine engagement is announced, the wed- dig is looked for- ward to as a high social event,and the f bride's trousseau / without a shadow of a doubt is going on towards completion in the bands of the modistes across the water. Who will be present atthe wedding is about determined, for everybody knows the ex- clusive and wealthy cirele of the fair and strong minded bride-elect, who will act as bridemaids, (maids of honor rather), best man, te., are forgone con- clusions, but who will perform the cere- mony? Ahl that is the question which is firing society’s keen curiosity. What sect will lend its minister to pronounee the fatefu; words, ‘‘I pronounce you man and wife?’’ It is not only whispered in the golden circle of ultra fashionable St. Louis that the fiancee of the wealthy young bride is a Buddhist in be- lief, but itis actually taiked aloud that the bride-to-be willl embrace the doctrines of Buddhism before her marriage. If so, and it is said it will be really the case, who will per- form the ceremony? Will society of St. Louis see for the frst time and In its most conserva- tive and aristocratic grounds a Buddhist mar- riage? At any event, the affair is the one of all others which is at present agitating the high-strune social firmament apd the departure of its bright particular stars into so odd a belief in this Western world is a ques- tion of great significance. Although some people in Boston and New York have become Baddhists, this is the first instance of the kind in the exclusive ranks of this city. At seaside, in the Northern resorts, among the stay at- homes, the present case is a general theme of discussion. The young lady has always been noted for her originality and tendenoles to strength of mind, but her latest move has created a decided sensation, * * — oo * What do vou think?’’ said a well-known society lady of the stay-at-homes to a SUNDAY PostT- UVISPATCH representative the otber day. „Ot all the outre things I have seen in the world, except the low-cut gowns ouce worn on Fourth street (the only fashionabie prome- nade of St. Louis), lhave never seen any other to equalthe one now being displayed again rigbt on Broadway and on Olive etreet. It ie ‘white shoes,’ jow-cut whites Just look there and see fer yourself if lam not right. The reporter followed the sweep of his friend’s glance and saw before him a lady who had a white She white bat. parasol. She swayed a whitefan. She had on her corsage a bunch of white flowers. She had over ber white pewd—complex!@ned face a white vell, and on ber hands she wore drawn up a pair of white undressed kid meus- gquetaire loves. She bad also white stock- ings, and tipping the visien of immaculate loveliness a pair of white shoes. They were tipped with black and bad Diack lacings draw- and the Woman in White, according to Wilkie Collins, stuck outher number threes with the pride ofa conqueror. . Now there goes a fashionable society gir! of St. Louis, and just look at her feet and see if my story isn’t about right. The reporter then made a call at one of the fashionable shoe stores on Broadway. Tes, sala the shoe artist, white shoes are the very latest fad and fancy of the ladies, and dusty as St. Louls is, delicate as the white shoe seems to be, it undoubtedly is the fashion. The iadies wearthem down town with white or black suits at will, With a black suit they are even wore striking. The shoes are of canvas and are laced with black strings and tipped with patent leather. The undressed kid is also worn and fits the foot when worn inside outto perfection. These white shoes offset with black or bronze tips, heels and lac- ings are the smart shoes of the day. But the all-white are in high favor, too. Some of the ladies even wear silver heeled, tipped and laced white shoes on the street, but the can- vas low shoe with its black tip, heels and laces are the most swell. It seems strange to wear them on the dusty streets, but cleaning them now since the new methods were intro- duced is so easy that the shoes can be cleaned without delay or effort twice a week. Of course there isa little expense attendant on it, but all fads are more or less expensive for that matter. + 5 2 * a * + a. . High- laced shoes or buttoned boots of russet leather are to be fashionable fall walking shoes, this coming season.

I sent down town the other day to a prominent dry goods hop where I had dealt for years and cailed for what I wanted. Did I getit? Net so; not an inch of it, for there wasn’t a yard of real lace in all that great dry goods house. It seems remarkable in a city of this size, but it’s atruth pure and unvar- nished. The clerk with whom I had dealing for yearssaid in reply to my aston- ished question as te the cause, ‘‘Ah! Madame, the times are changed; imitation im all things ls usurping the real. Nos long since this firm lost $13,000 on real laee which it had bought and never sold, So it determined to talk in with the world and only sell imitation. Now thatis all we have. We do not keep real lace and we never dave a call for u. You are the exception and will have to do as all other lad ies who wish it, order it to be imported. And the imitatlon iace is suv perfect in design thas even connoisseurs cannot detect the difference, thread and the designs are all so perfect that they defy detection.

K * + * * 9 = > **We never had such a erase, said a pretty auburned-haired young woman who watches the interest of a fancy and shop en Olive street, ‘‘as that of the linen embroidered i ‘washable silk.’ It ig an overpowering fad of the Present, and has literally done away with most of our other custom. It is called for ex- clusively. There are lunch covers, tabie —— dining table drapery, tray covers and oylies. called for in the damask linen and washable silk. When we get orders from the seaside or Northern wateriag places for these fancies we cut out the damask, have it stamped, begin the first of the pattern our- selves, so that the braider may better kuow how to follow the design, and then put up the ‘hanks’ of silk la an envelope adjoining the already begun pattern for a continuance. This damask liner and washable slik is a per- fect craze now, and all the ladies are working on it tothe exciusion of all other fancy arti- cles; so, ef course, it goes without saying that nothing else will be seen en inach or din- ner tables, or, in fact, in tondom next fall and winter than these combinations ef damask and silk. The Gamask is always white—pure, gimtouing whte, The silks first of all in favor are old gold or yellow; second, white; third, pink, and fourth blue. The ‘oid gold’ is the more stylish by far, but the white ts exquisite, so dainty and snow like, just fitted for a bride and bridal luncheon. ‘he biue and pink braided are aleo very pretty. The siik is really washabie and never loses its luster. When passed throuch the process of soap and water it comes forth unseathed and just asa pretty, and therein lies ite greatcharm. At any rate it is the great fad, and everybodv, far-aways and stay-at-homes, are busy with brains and fingers working out the beauties and desigus of the damask linen and wash- able siike. The designs, tec, are conven- tional and floral and done in wet stitches. * The latest fashion amon gthe music lovers of the feminine worid is the flute. When the violin and banjo were introduced as not only allowable but fashlosable in the hands of pretty women, their advent was considered a notable and original one. Now the stron tendency of young womanhood to assert tel among the privileges usually the sole pre- rogative of man even in music, bas gone farther; it hase raced in ite provinee now, not only the banjo and violin, the cornet in rare exceptions,and whistiing,but now comes the fiute-piaying damsel to the front with ber masculine mouthed accomplishment. It is the roaring fashion now among the musical woman of London’s fashionable world, and will reach America like a cycione by the late fall or early winter, when the for- eign wanderers returm. Minerya was said to have to have thrown away ber flute on which she was accomplished long ago rather than distort her classical mouth, but the ladies of this century are certainly jess vain and more practical, orto put it prettier, more music — — the wise goddess. Toe sweet complaining flute“ is certainly the love of the music devotees of London, and will no doubt, supersede the Amer!i- can girl banjo lovers inthe States. Already one young woman has played the instrument with success. This was Miss Mary Lyle Smith, who played the flute so well that she was heartily applauded at the late con- vention of the New York State Music Teach- ers’ Association. Her playing created the greatest sensation, but she is only one of the many who willadoptthis sad-toned, yet in- effably sweet instrument, in he fall. In fact, several St. Louis girls already declare that they will go to work soasto outrival Lax or Cox of Gilmore or whoever comes with the great band leader this year. * * > ~ = = * The many admirers of Benj. C. Bent, who — the last few years has charmed and won all cornet, will bes he 8 more und bund this year. In fact he bas entirely severed his connection with that great musical organization, and has retired permanently from public life, having opened a liquor store in New York. ermann Bellstedt, who captured St. Louls last year with his Ar tune, Where Did You Get That Hat?’’ will take Bent’s place this year with the band as premier cornettist, put many St. Louisans feel that no one can take Bent’s place. The Ittle cornet- tist, with hie Eagilish accent, dos't-eare manner and orig inal way, has hosts of friends here whom he won by his marvellous playing, and his absence will bea matter of deep re- gret to all who loved his solos. Gilmore is Gilmore, however, and the great leader will without doubt bring a good substitute and good music that will make everything except the magnetizing leader and band forgotten. JOY IN JOPLIN, Inspiriting Scenes on the Busy Streets—Some ofthe Improvements. JOPLIN, Mo., Aug. 9.—Joplin’s week ending to-night finds its main street as usual crowded with people going to or from ite banks or sbopping and promenading on the broad and handsome flagstone sidewalks that border it for many blocks on both sides. These are now being extended as fast as money and men can possibly do it, for two miles or more from its north end al- rectly south witheuta curve and follow the lead of the centinuous stream of houses, stores, factories and toupdries built, and go- ing upon each side, or on the streets and railroads that radiate from them. In regard to Joplin’s main. street, the Post- DISPaTCH Correspondent said through its coi- umns, more than seven years ago, that it reminded one of the level and famous shell road’’ from New Orleans to Lake Poatchar- train, but that its sidewalks were unworthy of it, and presumed that Joplin people would, in due time, clear them away and see that apples of gold should be put in pletures of silver.’’ This they are now doing, with plenty of means to do it with, owing to the unlimited resources of ginc and lead they draw from their city and district.

Speaking of the Panama Canal, he said: ‘*The last time I yisited the canal was don the Mth of July, and I went over the railroad from Colon to Fan- ama. The road runs along the canal, meeting and departing from it at intervais. Only four- teen of the fifty-four miles of the canal have been completely dug. The many reports of the wiliful waste of machinery have not been exaggerated. From Colon to Paname the ground is literally heaped and strewn with every description of tools, dredging machinery, railroad engines, and the like, I saw no one engaged onthe canal during my trip across the Isthmus.

Paupers Look Down Upon Us. ESTERDAY a ruthless railroad construction gang at work laying the foundation stones for the Merchants’ Terminal Blevated road the Levee, came & Square fiat stone about four feet wide, four feet long and a foot thick. It was tmbedded in the curbing on the west side of the Levee, just south of Market street. They yanked it out and threw it aside. It was the city Directrix, and had been there since 1826. With the customary disrespect for old insti- tutions, the railroad company tore the stone from its bed and put fn its place the founda- tions for an iren pler. In consequence it is to-day impossible to Say who are thé upper classes in &t. Louie and who the lower stratum, THEY LOOK DOWN UPON rou. There are two classes of people in the com- munity who ate usually considered very un- fortunate by their fellow beings, but it Bas been accurately ascertained that they are in a position to look down upon the rest of 88. Louis humanity. These are the paupers in the Poor-bouse and the la mates of the Female Hospital. They hold their heads higher than anyone else, sithough they may not be conscious. The country immediately sur- rounding the Poor-house and Female Hos- pital is higher than any other point in the city. The Compton Hil! Reservoir since the extension of the olty limits bas lost ite proud title of being the highest polat in the city, and must now play down among the third and fourth fiiddies The question of how much higher one place is than amothér, or whether one place is higher than another, le a question which often arises and sometimes —— in considerable sontroversy. 4 people talk about relative heights in the ; om . out knowin from what these heights are measured an com promise b saying, Above the sea lev- l. The height of any int in St. Louis is fixed by 2 24 with a standard agreed On a great many ago, and which has been used for that purpose ever since. THE r OF THS DIRECTRIX.

NUMEROUS SALES, REPRESENTING A SMALL AGGREGATE CONSIDEBATION- George Shields Parchases Over 3,000 Front Nest en Arsenal Street, South of Tower Greve Park—Statictics of the Week's Business aed the Best Selections From Agents’ Reperts of Sales. f EAL BSTATE sales have not been 80 nu- merous as they were during the previous week. According to the published list of of- ficial ‘transfers there were only sixteen less deeds filed for record, but there is a great dif- ference la the consider- ations as compared with the week ending August 2 In all the deeds filed last week there is only one in ex- cess of $20,000 in the transfer list sent out by the Recorder and nine only in excess of $10,- 000. These figures indicate that while thedemand for property is Keeping up well for a midsum- mer month the purchases are made chiefly by buyers of home sites, who are picking up anything that is offered at close figures in an- ticipation of an advance in prices as soon as the fall market opens. Following is the daily record of transactions for the past week, as appears from Record- er’s list of published transfers: D occcce cocese PTT TTL ITLL . ; — 8 eee Friday 3 bob coe Saturday ...... «+++. err eee enn $445,859 During the corresponding week in August last year there were 145 deeds filed for record, their aggregate consideration being $443,857. This shows an increase of forty-three sales and an inorease of $2,002 in thé amount of property sold during the past week as com- pared with the corresponding week in August, 1688. The previous week of August, ending the id last., showed an increase of $662,723 ever the corresponding week in 1889, from which is will be seen that while the aggre- gates are growing smaller as the summer Wears away, the perceatage of gain is very satisfactory. SPECULATION SOUTH OF TOWER GOR. Mr. Scullin’s electric road from Feurth and Pine out Arsenal streetto King’s highway is being operated with so much satisfaction that people whe heretofere have bada prejudice eeainst locating homes in the southern por- tien of the city are being attracted to that see- tion on account of its excellent transportation advantages, and no quarter ot the territory bas been benefited so much by the new mode of travel as that part of italong Arsenal street, immediately south of Tower Grove Park, where prior tothe opening of the road there was practically no demand for the property at any price, on accountof its inaccessibility to the basiness center. Although that new resi- dence territory is nee? our miles from the Post-DisraTcu ofiee it can now be reached from that center inside of thirty minutes. This is an advantage which makes the low-priced buliding sites down that way very desirable, especially on account of the high elevation and heaithfn!- ness of the section. There is city water on the Morgen Ford road and a force of graders ie at work there now, improving a large tract that is te be retalied in parcels to suit pur- chasers. Just west of this, on King’s highway, there is city water also, and the whole region is lighted by electricity. Although tbere has been a good many email lots bought in that locality y home buliders since the road commenced rennieg, building improvements have not commenced yet south ef the park, but imme- diately west of of it, Reber place with its Tel- ford drives, sewers, water, gas, electric lights and granitoid walks, is handsomely bullt up with an excellent class of attractive dwellings. These considerations have drawn the attentions of the operators to the vyecant acre n south of the park und a good deal ot it has been bought up. Yesterday George Shields, a well-known epec- wlator, made a $20,500 purchase in that loca!l- ity, paying only 86. 74 a foot forthe ground he bought. he preperty has a frontage of 3,045 feet om the south side of Arsenal street, com- — = at a point about nine bundred feet east of King's * yt „ andisknmown as the Gartside tract. 80,700 54.571 ili Hammell negotiated this sale, ip addition to which ser report six other transactions, agare- gating in all $27,500. Their next most important deal being the sale ofthe double two-story, twelve-room brick dwelling situated on the seutheast corner of Pennsylvania avenue and Haven street, owned by the George F. Ditt- mane Boot& Shoe Co,, renting for $36 per month, sold to Mr. J. W. Lauley for $3,000 cash. aught as an Investment. AGENTS’ REPORTS.

CLOSING UP THE WORK OF THE sPrciaL SESSION OF THE LEGISLATURE. 4 Bombshe)i Exploded Which Shook Up the Office of the State Auditor—Fgypt on Wheels—Corn Badly tcorched by the Het Weather — Official Changes — New Licensed — Political and Corperations 4 generat State News, PRINGFIELD, In., Aug. 9.—The final work of the special session of the Illinois Legis- lature was com- pleted this week. The special commit- tee appointed for the purpose met and approved the journal of the last day’s pro- ceedings, the Speaker signed the enabling act’’ and presented it to the Governor. There was a great deal of speculation as to the con- stitationality of the bill, particularly the parts of it relative to Chicago’s use of public parks in which to hold the World's Far and as to the future title of submerged lands which may be reclaimed, under the pro- visions, direct or indirect, of the bill, There was a general disposition to let the tall go with the hide’’ and throw nothing in the way of the big fair; still there were some careful men who conscientiously believed that the bill would not stand. A SLAP AT THE AUDITOR. As Was predfMted in the Post Disratou three weeks ago, the following resolution was introduced in the House: Whereas, Sec. 28, art. 5 of the constitution of this State provides that the Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, Secretary of State Treasurer, Auditor of Public Accounts and Superintendent of Public Instruction shall éach ‘‘receive for their services a salary to be established by law, and they shall not *‘re- celve to their own use any fees, costs, per- 8 of office or other compensation; an Whereas, The lst section ofthe 53d chapter of the Revised Statutes of the State of Lilinois fixes the salary of the Auditor of Pupiie Ac- eounts atthe sum of $3,500 per annum, and no other salary, ‘‘fees, perquisites, benefit or compensation, in any form whatsoever;’’ and Whereas, It Bas been charged in the public pr nd is believed by many to be true, that the Auditor of Public Accounts reserves to hisown use the sum of 5.000 per annum from the fees collected by him from the in- surance companies doing business in this State; therefore, Resolved, That the Attorney-General be re- uested to inform the House of Hepresenta- tives if thereis any law by which the said Auditor of Public Accounts is entitled to re- ceive to his “own use“ any fees, costs, per- quisites of office or compensation’’ other than the sum of $3,500 per annum. Resolved, That said Attorney-General! be re- guested to informthe House of Représente- tives if it is not the duty of said Auditor of Public Accounts to pay Into the State Treasury allsums received 7 him from ali sources whatsoever, as provided by sec. II, chap. 53, of the Revised Statutes of the State. EFFECT OF THE BOMBSHELL. This was the only full-grown and well de- veloped bembsheil that was thrown in curing the entire session, and was presented in such an ingenious way by the Hon. Mr. Farmer of Fayette that be gained general consent to have it read for information. The elerk was given the wink and read loudly enough for everybody in the State- house to hear him. By the time hereached the pith of it the Democrats and a geodly number on the other side had ‘‘caught on, and the Republicans who were looking out for breakers pricked up their ears and as many of them started toward the Speaker’s desk, cries of What's that?’’ What’s that? came frem different parts of the house. Toward the close of the reading the excitement grew intense. The Democrats laughed immoderately because of Mr. Farm. er's siyness in forcing it upon the House; many of the Republicads enjoyed the joke and also appreciated, and the roar became so deaf - ening that the voice of the Clerk was completely drowned. As was predicted the Speaker ruled the resolution eut of order, because it was not in the call and did not referto the World’s Fair. One Republican said he thought it was germane to,the subject, because there is danger that Pavey’ may gob- bie the salary of the Director-General of the exposition. A SINGULAR CASE. John D. Cochran of Wabash County was sentenced in the Oireuit Court, November term of 1888, to confinement in the Southern Illinois Penitentiary for the rest of his exist- ence. He was charged with the murder of John Buckenberger S. Evansville, Ind. A strong petition for bis releas@ bas been flied and the Governor has investigated the casé thoroughly. He finds that the testimony which convicted Cochran at the trial wus very weak and based principally upon the evidence ofa Hoosier horse-thief who had served time in the Penitentiary and swore that Cochran had told bim that he Cochran, was going to murder Buckenberger for hit money. Acopy ofa letter, written b Buckenberger the day before hie death an proven genaine, is filed with the papers, in which he tells his family that be is geing to commit suicide and tells them exactly where to find his body, in alumber shed below the ridge, at Mount Carmel, just where the body wae afterward found. The Goverusor is sat- iefied that Bucken berger committeed suicide by shoeting In the roof of the mouth with a revolver that he had purchased the previous day, as Was proven, and an immediate pardon is granted. Persons here who were familiar with the case claim that the letter referred to should have been in evidence at the time, but why it was suppressed cannot be accounted for, and the State’s Attorney is severely criticized.

The Missouri Press Association, which meets in Hannibal on August 19, 20 and 21, will have very interesting sessions. President Ed Stephens bas, during the term be bas held the office, Infused life into the association. The last meeting was held in St. Louis. It was more interesting and there was « larger number of editors in attendance than any previous meeting, and the Hannibal meeting premises to bring even more State press men together. One of the topics of especial interest to be discussed isa revision of the laws with relation to State printing. Most country editors are interes in this, and some very practical discussions are certain to arise.

AN EIDER DUCK FARM. the Seft Dowa Is Secured by the Hanters. How From the Cornhill Magazine, The colonies of breeding elders often con- sist of an immense number of birds, and the nests lie so thickly togetber that it is often difficult to avoid stepping into them. They are usually placed at some slight elevation; and bere in any faint depression the duck collects a small quantity of seaweed and drift stuff, which she forms intoa felty mass with her breast. Upon this four or five eggs are laid in the course of a week, these being of a pale green color, and rather resembling those of the heron. Even before the last egg is lai u is seen that a few feathers are scattered about the nest, and as incubation proceeds these increase in quantity. The b covers the exgs withdown plucked from her breast, and this she dees day by day until a very con- siderable quantity buries the eggs. It is this down which has become such an important article of commerce. If the elders are hateh- ing under ordinary conditions the young ap- earin about twenty-six days, and almost mmediatety betake themselves te the water. It is bere that they s themseives, feed and sleep. Ona rock-bound bit of coast it is in- teresting te watch the duckliags paddling among the stones and Ging upon the tiny bivalves that are commen among the bays and inlets. These remarks refer to the breed- ing of wild eidere; but, unfortunately, coio- nies of birds under natural conditions are becoming more and more rare every year. The commercial collector has everywhere stepped in ane le putting a terrible drain uper the species. In Norway this bird is protected by law, though only to be uted the more per- sistently by private iadividuais. On one island, that of Isaijardarjup, elder ducks are sald to nest in thousands, Speaking 2 breeding sights by the shore, Mr. She A who visited the colony,telis as that the ducks sat upon their nests in m „ and at every step started from beneath his this isiend, of n ofa mile in length, it was difficultto walk without step- ping into the nests.

At the bottom and sides of the wall alternate stones bad been leit out, 60 as to form a series of compartments fer the duckg to nest in. prety compartment Was tenanted, and as the visitors walked slong the ducks flew out all along the line. were welcomed by the white drakes, w were tossing on the water Wien loud clamorous cooing.’’ A farm house om the Island was tenanted in like manner. house itself was a great marvel.*’ 4 were hatching on the turf walls which sur- rounded it, in the window embrasures, on the round on the roof. The house was fringed with ducks, and a duck sat in the suraper, Then a grassy bank close by was cut into squares, every one of which was oc- cupied. 4 windmill was packed, as was every available objecton the island—mounds, rocks, crevices. his was an eider-dows farm. tame were the ducks as to allow the farmer's wife to stroke them as they sat on their nests.

When seen by the su- DAY Post-DisPaTon representative Miss Fruchte was ia her reom and deep in the mysteries of dressmaking. A seamstress was at the machine, which had evidently trom the surroundings on chairs and sofas turned out . a variety of clothing. „Tou see, my dear, sald the intellectual woman, ‘‘lam having a let of Jenness Miller clothing made.

Mies Fruchte very readily gave her views on the important matter. She said: un 15 IN FAVOR, OF IT. ‘*Certainly I am in faver of physical cultare in the school, previded the term is eoerrectly construed and the subject allowed to reesive its due cousideration and so more. A wise woman has sald, in all wtal nundertakings, ‘look to the end in view." Whenever one hears of a new movement in educational matters he feels like crying out, what is the end in view? What ts the aim of all our teaching activity and bow shall the means be correlated that the alm may be attained? As the highest results of al our educational efforts we do not wish to produce adepts or scholars, artisans or artists, but rather barmonionsiy unfolded men and women. And surely there ig something more important in the school room than the bygiene of the body. It is the bygiene of the soul, which is more to be re- garded and more directly under the control the teacher. „„As an eminent modern educator has sus gested, the child has cognitive faculties, senses and intellect which need to be trained until he or she can think guickly and accu- rately on all subjects; a matter of vital import when one takes into account the vast miscel- lany of modern every-day lite, to say nothing of higher themes.

Leuls will gain one member, Jackson County, two; Buchanan will retain her pres- ent number, three, and Jasper, St. Louls, Green and Saline their two each; the last with only thirty-eight to spare (and should the pepulati>: reach 2,665,000 will only have one member). Pettis, Nodaway and Johnson lose one each, making the House as now with 140 members. Of the counties not quite entitied to two each Bates comes rst, lacking 1,040; Boone next, with 1,834 less than the necessary number; Vernen Jrith 2,219 less; Pettis, with 2.279 less; Macon, with 2,358 less, and Neda- way, with 2,903 less.

Benson ef Elsah, III., on the legend oof the Piasa Bird. This legend is a very remarkable one and is the oldest and most impertant of Alton’s local legends. The Indians commemerated and preserved it by a large painting om a biuff near Alton, where it could be seen up te a few years ago, when the rockon which it was painted was blasted. No trace of & remains, though old residents of the city have seen it and are able te describe it from personal reo- elliection. The first account of the painting was given more than 200 years age by Father Marquette, the explorer who discovered the Upper Mississipp! River. On his voyage down the Mississippi the father reached the presert site of Alton about Jaly 1, 1613, and described the Piasa Bird as it then appeared4 as follows: As we coasted along rocks beautiful for thi te 8 ® monster they gave the name 0 of the Piasa,’ Ay ‘Bird. of the Evil Spirit’ — to some the Bird Which Devours en. MEDICINE MEN AT FAULT. In vain did the medicine men use all their power to drive away this fearful vielcor, Day by day the numbers of their tribe diminished to feed its insatiable appetite. Whele villages were deselsted, and conster- pation spread among all the tribes of the lilini. At last the voung chief of the nation, Wassatoga (or Owatoga), beloved by his people and esteemed their greatest warrior and whose fame ex- tended even beyond the Great Lakes, called a ceuncil of the priests in a secret cave where, after fasting many days, they slept, and the Great Spirit. came to the young chief in his sleep and told him thatthe only way to rid his . eople of their destroyer was to offer himself asa sacrifice. Wassatoga started, aroused the slumbering priests and inforating them ef what bad occurred to him, announced his determination to make the re- quired eacrifice. Wassatoga then dressed himeelf in hig chieftain’s garb, put on his war palat as if going to battle, and taking his bows and arrows and tomabawk he placed himee!lf on a prominent point ef rock te await the*coming of the monster bird. Meanwhile, as had been directed In his vision, a band of bis best braves had been concealed in the interstices ofthe rocks waiting, each with hisarrow drawnto the head, the mo- ment when their chief should be attacked, to wreck their last vengeance upon their enemy.

Green, red and biaek are the ecclers employed. On the whele these two monsters are 80 wel! painted that we could not believe any Indian to have been the designer, as good painters in France would not do as well; besides this they are painted so high upon the rock that itis hard te get convenientiy at them to paint them. THE AGE OF THE TRADITION. The tradition was not conureed toa single tribe, but obtalsed among all the origina) in- habitants of the Great West, nove ef whem, even alter the settiement of the place by the whites, passed the rock witheut discharging their arrows at the monster, and the marks of balis and missiles were visible about the picture to a late day. A. D. Jones, in his volume, ino and the West,“ published im 1838, says: **I visited the spot in June, 1838, and ex- amined the image, and the ten thousand bullet marks upon the cliff seemed to corrob- orate the legend. So lately as the 8288 ofthe Sac and Fox delegations dewn the river on their way to Wash- ington, there was @ a discharge of their rifies atthe Piasa Bird. On arriving at Alton they went on snore in a body aud pro- ceeded to the bluffs, where they held solemn war council, conciuding the whole with a splendid war dance, manifesting the most exuberant joy.’’ There are several Versions of the legend of the Piasa. Prof. McAdams of Alton promul- gates the following: THE LEGEND OF THE PIASA. Long years ago, when the country was in- habited by a very large and prosperous tribe ot Indlans known asthe Illini (or illinois), ata time when this tribe was at the height of ite prosperity, they were terrified at the ap- pearance on the imaccessible biufls, where it made its home, ofan immense and hideous acimal, baif bird, half beast, which from tke fact of “ite haviag wings the satives called ‘Piasa’ or r Bird.’ This monster is described as being of gigantic size; so strong that it could carry eff a buffalo in its talons. In appearance it was ost frightfal. lite wings, as biack as the ravyen’s, and clothed with shuader; ite legs, four in number, had talons like those of am eagle; its body was like thatofa dragon, and covered with glistening scales; ite enormous tall ended like thatofa fish.

The appetite of this monster seemed to grow more rayenous the more it tasted of human blood. * THE ATTACK ON THB MONSTER, ‘*‘The tribe was rapidly diminishing ia numbers fromthe ravages of this monster.

The mode wasthis: First, a moble victim was to be selected from among the various war- riors, who by reilgious rites was to be saacti- fed for the sacrifice. Secondly, twenty-five warriors of the bravest, with their stoutest bows and sharpest arrows, were to conceal themselves near the place of sacrifice.

The subjects chosen, The Nature of Christianity,’’ The Reality of Jesus,“ ‘‘His Deity,’’ The Church, ‘*The- Ology’’ and Ihe Bible,’’ were selected, as Dean Gray explains, because they cover the ground of the great religious discussions of the day.

Christianity has often been questioned and subjected to ridicule and misrepresentation, but the as- suults have not been upon the thing itself, but upon certain formulas intowhich mistaken mon have sought to cast the faith, and Dean Gray identifies himself with the best modern feeling, if not with the best modern thought, when he abstains from all doctrinal droning and devetes himself to the simple Christianity found in the tacts of Christ’s life. To all ques- tions of serious import ‘‘Christianity is the answer in the person, the life, the work, the death, the resurrection, the ascension of Jesus Christ, in his gift of the Holy Spirit, in his living, directing presence, unseen yet actual; facts all as real as any facts ot histo in experience.’’ Absolutely devoted in n | loyalty to Christianity so defined, he de- Sspises mere sectarian defluitions and has littie or no respect for dogmatic utterances. The book will de found useful to these who are disgatisied with the one-sided, inadequate secfarian oppositions of Christianity, and will be suggestive of thoughtto indifferentists in pointing out that Christianity is a fact, fresh and full of catholic ossibilities, which cannot be defined once or all by dogmas or doctrines. The formal- isin of doctrine is discarded in favor of the in- ward disposition toward rightesoueness out of which the religious life arises and which, indeeu, is the religious life itself in its essen- tials. The practical nature of Christianity, rather than its theoretical importance, is in- is d upon.

This, of course, puts the church in harmony with the prevalent state of eiviliga- tion of any particular spot, and, indeed, so far as the attitude is consistently maintained, identifies it as part of civilization itself. A devout spirit enlivened and strengthened by a Vigorous intelligence and ripe scbhelar- ship—Dean Gray, has done in this book work not so showy perhaps as that of other liberal spirits in the Episcopal Church, but in real value quite as importantasany. Popular misconceptions are effectively disposed of and the true attitude of the chureh toward the questions of the day is clearly indicated. It ie well worth careful perusal, not only by chureh men, but by Christians of all other de- nominations and by those who, outside all denominations, yot in their lives acknowledge the Ohristianity of Christ.

Tires, a NK YY po | * r THE FARMERS OF KANSAS EW MOVE ON THE PART OF THE MEM- BERS OF THE ALLIANCE A Mercantile Department Organized to Mandle the Grain and Live Stock Pred- wet of the State—Expressions of Diese; isfaction—Lower Railway Kates—Dismal Crop Prospecit—The Castor Bean—New Capitol at Topeka—Kansus News. Ter- Kan, Aug. 9.—The Farmers’ Al- liance of Kansas, which now numbers over 145,00 mem- bers, has organized a mercantile depart- mentand propose to handle their own grain and live stock: they bave appointed agente who will handle their shipments in the markets of Kansas City. Chicaga and St. Louis, by which transaction the farmer will save the commission, which he usually pays the middieman. Thescheme is organized on the most thorough business principles and promises to revolutionize the grain and live stock business inthis State. If the under- taking is successful more than one-half of the corn, wheat, oats and cattie which ts shipped out of Kansas will be taken ont of the hands af the commission men and local buyers throughout the State and sold by the farmers themselves in the Fastern markets. The new organization ie known asthe Kansas Alliance Exchange. It will not only sell the products of the farm, but it will buy direct from the manufacturer everything thatthe farmer needs for which cash will invariably be paid. Although the exchange has been in operation leos than three months itis already doing a very ex- tensive business, the sales last month amounting to more than $200,000. It is Claimed that by buying direct from the manu- facturer they are saving the farmers from 5 to 50 per cent. It has already seriously injured the business of some of the retail dealers in counties where the alliance has a strong membership. Dealers who are doing busi- ness in agricultural communities and who depended almost altogether on the farmer, find since the Alliance has com- meénced buying and seliing for its members, that their trade has decreased nearly 50 per centanda number haye been obliged to go out of business. AN ALLIANOB CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS. The Farmers’ Alliance of the Third Conares- sional District has nominated B. H. Clover of Cowley County for Congress. Mr. Clover is the President of the State Aliiance and is the most prominent member of the organization in the State. He will mage the race against B. W. Perkins, who has represented the district for the pastten years. It bas always been a close district, and two or three times Mr. Perkins bas been elected by a very sma!! majority. If the Democrats endorse Mr. Clover, as now seems quite probable, he stands a very good show ofa nomination. The ' disaffection among the farmers is stronger in thie district than any other in the State. It is predicted that over 3,500 who have hberetofore voted the Republican ticket will next No- vomber support Farmer Clover, in which event his election is a certainty. This will break tne solid Republican delegatiqn which has represented Kansas in Congress since the organization of the State The farmers are declaring that the Republicans are ignoring the great agricultural interests of the West. Congressman Funston has peen renominated by the Republicans of the Second District. Although Mr. Funston is bimself a farmer, the grangers are nut supporting him very en- thusiastically. The Alliance hes rominated A. F. Allen, a prominent farmer of Douglas County. It is said that Mr. Allen is not ac- ceptable to the Democrats and they will nom- inate one of their own party. fith three candidates in the feld Congressman Funston is assured of a re-election. It ise said there is a feeiing of dissatisfaction in some quarters among the members of the Farmers’ Alliance. Theold Republicans who have worked so actively in the organization, are quietly dropping are losing interest and out. The real trouble seems to be caused by the Union Laborites, who are working ener- geticaily to control the actions of the Alli- ance. One Republican in Ottawa County was expelled from his sub- alllance, because he wes enthusiastic for his old party. In one township in that county, sixteen farmers sent im their resignations, because, they said, **the leaders of the alliance have decided to use the organization to further the fortunes of a party to which we cannot belong.’’ LOWER GRAIN RATES IN KANSAS. The Kansas Board of Railroad Commission- ere have been notified by the Interstate com- merce commissioners of a ruling just made which lowers the rates on corn, oats and wheat es ge to from pointsin Kansas. To Mississippi River pointe wherethe rate in Kansas On corn is now 15 cents the new rate will be 18 cents On Corn or oats and 15 cents on wheator flour; from 15% and 16-cent points the rate will be l4 cents on corn or cats and 17 cents on wheat or flour; from 16% and 17- ont points a rate of 15 cents on corn or oats €18 centeon wheator flour. These rates not apply from inte distant more than two hundred and fifty miles from the Mis- souril River. A DISMAL OUTLOOK FOR FARMERS. The midsummer crep report of the State Agricultaral Department just issued is the most discourag ag that this department has ever sent out. The severe drouth, intense heat and occasional hot winds prevailing throughout the State have injured the corn so that there cannot be more than a crop. hile rains through- out August may benefit to some extent the late corn, yet the crop generally is too far advanced to be materially helped by futare rains, and it is safe to say the crop this year will net exceed 75,000,000 bushels. This devastation” of crops is not confined to any Ome section of the State, but is found to exist in every portion, varying only in degree. That portion of the State, however, embraced between the th and 100th meridians suffers most seriously, yet some counties east of the meridian—Geary and Riley—report prac- ally a complete failure of this crop. The reports show that as threshing pro- gresses wheat is found in many instances to 12 better than was expected, aud the qual- also is found to be excellent. Yields of from thirty to forty bushels per acre are re- ported te@ing from sixty-two to sixty-five In many Western coun- however, the yield is low, and the aver- © product per acre for the State will prob- y mot much exceed that reported one month ago, or an aggregate wheat crop for the State of about 28,000,000 bushels. Oats, nithough short, isa better crep than Ihe yield ig good, ranging in ‘Some counties from forty to seventy bushels acre, and that, too, of a superior quality. . fax area has been increased considerably im the State this year, and the crop is very from ten te twelve bushels per bugs are reported in Many eountios, but not in large numbers.

ABILENE, Kan., Aug. 9.—The Central Kan- sas counties will be depleted of stock if the present wholesale shoving of cattie and hogs onthe market continues. The farmers are frightened nearly out of their wits by the fail- ure or the corn crop, which, with the utter lack of hay, bas left them without a thing to feed this winter. — had bought young hogs and cattie last spring tor fattening and now to find themselves without a thing to feed is too much of a disappoigtment. Asa result the railways Cannot carry the stock to market fast enough, and as the stock is in un- marketabie shape the result cannot tall to be depressing to the last degree. Nothing is realized hardly for the stock and the farms are left without a start for the coming years. The suggestion of Secretary Mohler to plant another crop of corn is laughed at. With the ground as hard as the highway and no sign of moisture in the air or sky, there ie no hope for any such relief. Many of the Western counties will be entirely depleted ot population by reason of the ex- odus eastward to escape the privations that are sure to come during the 1 winter. There is nothing to do but leave. in some sections the fathers and husbands have been since June in Colorado seeking work, thinking the wives and children could care for the corn and it would be ready for harvest in the fall. Now, with the crop burned up, there is nothing to do but pull out entirely, leaving the places to be redeemed some time in the future, or taken by the relentless mort- gage Companies. INGALLS’ ENEMIES. There is ne cessation to the Farmers’ Alm ance hostility to Senator Ingalls in Central and Western Kansas. Every day come re- ports of Alliance resolutions denouncing him and pledging the members of conventions to oppose him. His record in Congress this ses- sion has been so barren of any striking move- mente that the farmers have no difficulty in believing that he is a useless piece of farni- ture from this State. As the Alliance is cen- tering ite strength upon the Legislature, there is a strong possibility that it may, in conjunc- tion with the Democratic members, be able to make a respectable opposition. The hard times and failure of crops has done much to strengthen the alliance and its mem- bers are being‘held Intact for the People’s —% > Their very definite ideas in regard to Ur. ngalls means a strong fight egainst bim. PLENTY. OF CANDIDATES. The office of Auditor of State bids fair to have s perfect horde of candidates from Cen- tral Kansas before the Repubiican Conven- tion. This portion of the State has rather set- tied on that office as being one of its per- quisites, and in almost every county isa seeker for the place. Thus far Charles Me- Hovey, Treasurer of Thomas County, is in the lead, with E. L. Rush, of Rush Coun- ty, a close second. F. P. Stearns of Dighton ie also in the race. The only difficulty seems to be a division of strength iby reason of the number of eandidates. The colored people, who have claimed the office since McOabe was In, have called a mass meeting to be held at Salina and will make an effort to coerce the Republican Convention into a recogaition of their rights. PACKAGE HOUSES LEAVING. There is an exodus among the package men. Disgusted at their smali sales, which have been far less than anticipated, harrassed by legal processes and frightaned at the Wilson biil, they are shipping their jremaining wares back to Kansas City rapidly and especially in the smalier towns, are leaving the fleid to the joints, which continue to flourish. The fa- miliarity with the package-houses has not seemed to do any injury to the Kansas people, andthe police records are no larger than before. HORGE-BREEDING ENCOURAGED. The Saline Couoty Horse Fair holde its an- nual meeting next week,” and will attract a large attendance of breeders. Owing to the dimiculty of realizing profits on other stock, and the good prices paidjfor horses, much capital and attention is being given to the horse-raising industry whieh is becoming of much importance, this section of the State having more fine borse-farms than any other. An Alliance Split. Concona, Kan., Aug. %-—The Ottawa County Alliance has had a wide split in its ranks owing to the People’s party movement. Nearly two bundred members handed to the President a signed statement saying: „„We do not believe it ts necessary to form a new 1 party to remedy any evils which may be complained of. „We believe that the low price of grain has been brought about by a combination of cir- cumstances running through along series of years (thereby forcing down the grain market of the world) and over which the United States Government bas no control whatever. Therefore, a new ty could not raise the rice of corn by legislation lu an way, except y an inflation of the currency, which would benefit the farmer because he selis more than he buys.’’ They withdrew from the alliance and will have no more to do with it. As they are ali prominent Vemocratic and Republican farm- ers their action has much weight. Russians Swindied. Marion, Kan., Aug. 9.—A wholesale swin- dle among the Mennonites is discovered to have taken place through the northern part of this county. A well dressed young man who could talk Russian sold the unsuspecting settlers certificates of stock in a company which de assured them would enable them to purchase their supplies at bait price. The certificates were signed by nearly all of the well-to-do farmers of the Mennonite settle- ments for sums ranging from $50 to $200. The certificates tury out to be promissory notes for ten times the amount, and are being col. lected by imnocent parties. Ths scoundre! who worked the scheme is being sought for, but potrace of him can be found. He will be summarily desit with if discovered. They Want to Transfer Grant’s Remains, MONTICELLO, III., Aug. 9.—All the members of the G. A.

New YOrK, Aug. 9. XPERT electricians are now examining the appar- atus in Auburn prison, with a view to discovering it possible what was the mat. ter with the machinery when Kemmier was exe- cuted. That the execution was a horrible, brutal boteh every one admits. = Even ‘the advocates of electrocution say that N will take tWo or three trials to perfect the mode of kiljing criminals. But what was the cause? The machinery was imperfect say some. It was tested repeatedly before the execution and found to give from 1.800 to 2,000 volts, Warden Durston says. But the twenty test lamps were burning during the execution. Ther should not have been. The moment before switching the current into Kemmier the test lamps should have been cutoff. Each lamp consumes fifty volts, hence the twenty The Death Chair. took 1,000 volts at once out of the current sent to Kemmier. That left 700 to cause death. The best authorities state that 15 per cent of a cur- rent is stopped atthe points of contact and that 8 is thus expended in the body. Eighty- five per centof the 700 volte not consumed by the test lamps is 595 volts of pressure. This is not enough to surely killa man instantly with good contact. In an interview with a Rochester Po- Express reporter this afternoon Supt. Barnes revealed some secrets of the dy- namo room in the Auburn prison, When Kemmler was killed, he said, the belt used was a new oneand had not been stretched. The iacing of the belt caused the dynamo to revolve irregularly, and when the current was turned on to kill the resistance of Kemmler and the chair was such that it caused the belt to slip and itcame near running offthe pulley. It was three-quarters of the pulley and only that * man held a {board against it, the belt would have come off and there would have been an awful scene. There should have been a resistance board to run the current through until it was to be turned on to Kemmler and changed from the resistance box by the same move that turned it onto him. DR. SPITZKA. sala: To my mind the dynamo and apparat- us was far from what it.ghould have been. It furnished neither sufficient power nora steady current. No business man would be willing to have 80 unsatisfactory a current furnish hima light and motor power. The voltage during the execution was wabbling around from 1,300 volte down as low as 700. 1 am not au electrician, but that is what they tellme. This certainly should not have been 80. Ifadynamo hed been purchased from the maker for a purpose that was agreeable to electric interests, I do not believe it would have been so. There may have been corrupt reasons forthis. The company which manu- factured the dynamos used would certainiy be be benefited by the botcb of this execution.’’ The machines undoubtedly were not suited to so delicate a spurpos They were fadmit- tediy imperfect. They were stolen in the first place, butthough the makers offered under pressure te build the State a machine that could be relied upon, they were told that they were merely making a hue and cry to save themselves. THE DYNAMO ROOM. The dynamo room was in the northwest wing of Auburn prison, somewhere between eight hundred and a thousand feet from the chair. The engine was under it in the cellar. The dynamo is of the Westinghouse pat- term and is capabie, if run at asafe speed, of rodueing 500 volta. It was ren at ite dest. ne wires which connect it with the chair are the largest kind of electric light wires. They run from the dynamo room to the top of the building along the ridge to the front of the main building, just aver the window of the old execution room, then down the front of the bullding,entering the room at the window. Inside are the switchboard, the volt meter, resistance box, lamp board, with its thirty- six lamps, the reguiating switch, the amme- ter, and finally the fataiswitch. One of the wires goes directiy to the chair and the other through the ammeter and is interrupted by theswiteh. The volt meter is governed by the direct wire. THE SWITCHBOARD. The ewitch room lo also connected with the dynamo room by a couple of smail wires attached to a bell.

The Kansas Statutes Bar the Sale of Liquor in Original Packages. TorzkA, Kan., Aug. 9.—The question having been raised whether legislation on the part of the State would be necessary to make the Wilson original package bill operative in this State, Attorney-General Kellogg to-day ren- dered an opinion, holding that legislation would not be required. He says: The Wil- son bill provides in substance that all intox- icating liquors transported into any State or Territory, or remaining therein for use, con- sumption, sale or storage, shall immediately upon arrival in the State or Territory be subject to the operation and effect of the laws of such State or Ter- ritory. The prohibitory law of this State is in full force and effect asa continu- lug statute. It was duly enacted in the ex- ercise of the police powers ofthe State. In the case of Mulger vs. Kannsas (128 United States 623), its constitutionaity! as proper ex- ercise of the police power was upheld by tne Supreme Court of the United States. The probibitary. law will apply to imported cigars in orginal packages, the same as te intoxicatin liguore immediately fore and after the taking effect ofthe Wilson bill. R will bein order to close out every original package house without delay. The violators of the constitutionand laws of our State are entitled to no fayors at the hands of the peo- ple of Kansas.

LOUIS BAILROAD CO. MAKING IT WARI FOR J. W. PETERS- ik e It Demands a Bend ef $1,500,000 to Secure It Against Loss or Damage in Delaying the French Market Curve—Justice Zim- merman ig Trouble Again-—The Sheriff Made Jim Sweeney's Recceiver—Legal Notes, The St. Louis Railrood Co, (Broadway line) has started in to make the fight begun by John W. Peters as unpleasant ag it possibly can for bim, and from the contents of an am- Gavit filed yesterday the case is becoming very serious. To start from the begin- ning John W. Peters rents the southern end of the old French Market just south of Chouteau avenue and tor some time has taken upthe sidewalk surrounding the proverty with his immense ice boxes. The 86. Louis Railroad Co., in changing ite road to a cable power, found it necessary to cut of a slice of the sidewalk twenty-seven inches wide. By so doing the re- moval of Peter's ice boxes became necessary and when the rosd attempted to remove them Peters filed suit for an*injunc- tion, The Judge granted a temporary in- junction on condition that Mr. Peters would ale a bone for $25,000 to secure the railroad company from any damage or loss by reason of the delay in building the road. Peters filed the bond with John Vogel, as sure ty. ony ip the railroad company as that the bond increased to $1,500,000 tor three reasons, principal of which is a sad reflection on the injustice of the courts in compelling litigants to wait for years for the mill of justice to reach their cases and ind out a solution of the egal problems submitted. The first reason given is that on account of the re- straining order the company is unable to complete the construction of ‘the road and change the motive poses In the second place the company did not anticipate any complaint from Peters, and contracted for the construction of the road and issued $1,- 500,000 . in onds, which bear interest at 8 er cent per annum, Al- ready 6,000 has been pald out and two-thirds of the work has been com- pleted. The road must be completed by one tember 1. as the company will de heid liab by the contractors and will become involved in law suits by thedelay. The road cannot be used unless completely built and should horses be used the open siot would work great Gamage to the stock. The third reason, — show the court is that, ac- cordin to the present condition of the dockets of the Circuit and Appellate Courts of this State the restraining order can be continued in force by Peters at his volition for a period of three years, notwithstanding that the order may be dissolved and Peters’ bill dismissed. Even if at the end of three years the case shouid be decided in favor of Peters the company will have sustained damages in the matter of interest on its bonds for * 000; in the depreciation of machinery, 850, 000; in the damage to horses and delay of curs, ifthe are used instead of the cabie, for three years, $25,000; in the loss of increased revenue, $1,095,000; by the diversion of travel to lines that have rapid transit, $100,000; a total of $1,495,000. Attached to this application are the affidav- its of Capt. Robert MoCuilech, General Man- ager of the road, and Winthrop Bartlett, civil engineer buiiging the road, both of whom de- clare that the figures given are true and that such damages will be sustained. P. O. Mafiitt, President of the Olive street line, makes a very interesting affidavit in sup- port of the figures. He says since the Olive street line has been running by cable trafic has increased 100 percent. His acquaintance with the st. Louis Rallroad Co. and other lines to say he has reason to permits bim believe the receipts of the Broadway line when cabled will be increased at least $100 per day, and if operated by horses after the cable road is built it will cause a damage to stock of $50,000." As to diversion of travel other lines he believes it will be not less than $219,000 or 5200 per day, as has been shown on other lines. Justice Zimmerman Sued for 85,000. Justice of the Peace Theodore F. W. Zim merman of South St. Louls, not satisfied with having himself fined $25 by Judge Dillon of the Circuit Court for expressing himself in inflammatory language has made himself a defendant in a $5,000 dam- age suitforthe same way he made himseif disagreeabie to the Circuit Oourt. Last May Joseph Gremmelsbacber, a discharged em- ploye of tbe Broadway line, entered suit against Christian hed andl President of the line, for $70 back salary claimed to be due him. He secured judgment for $6) and Mr. Pieper filled a notice of his intention to appeal to the Olrenit Court. Under the statutes an appeal must be taken within ten Gays after the verdict is rendered in a justice shop. On the tenth day Mr. Pieper sent Gott- lieb Neumeister to Zimmerman’s office to sign the appeal bend, and Mr. Neu- meister waited from pnoon until night- fall for the Justice to appear, so he could sign the bond, but the Justice did guet —— in an appearance, nor could he be found. he next day Zimmerman refused to accept a bond, saying the time had elapsed. Judge Dillon was appealed to and he ordered Zim- merman to show cause why the appeal should not be panes Zimmerman filed a reply and said Judge Dillop took advantage of a brute statutory nrerogative and did an act that was a disgrace to the bench. Judge Dillon or- dered Zimmerman to appear before him and fined him $25 for vontempt. Stung by this reprimand Zimmerman published a card in the three German daily papers headed, *‘The Other Side, and in the card said jGrem- meisbacher had an affida- vit to the that it was? customa for Mr. Pieper to employ men and beat them out of their wages. Mr, Pieper in his petition filed yesterday states he investigated the charge, learn that Gremmelbacker fad made no affidavit of that character, and that the charge emanated from Zimmerman’s brain. 0 therefore promptly entered suit for $5,000 for defamation of character and slander. Some time ago Zimmerman was a candidate for Circuit Clerk, but since he was fined, it is said, he bas changed his mind. . m Sweeney's Receiver Appointed, Sherif?

Eagle—ThefFight in the Five Congressional Districts— Newly Fledged Republicazm Negre Voters —The Temperance Assocfation—Minor Political Contests. ITTLE ROOK, Ark., Aug 9.—The meeting of the Democratic clubs of the Btate, to be held here on the 14th, promises to be a conference of no little importance. Reports received at the head- quarters of the Demo- eratic State Central Committee indicate that at least two-thirds of the counties in the State will be represented. It is expected that the meeting will be the means of largely inereas las the majority of the Democratic State ticket in the September election. The delegates will come fresh from the masses and will lay before the meeting the political outlook in their respective localities, In this way a general ontline of the campaiga as it has thus far advaneed will be obtained and a more perfect organizatio. f the Demo cratic forces effected. A very interesting programme has been arranged and the clubs will be royally entertained during their stay in this place. THE STATE CANVASS. Meanwhile the State canvass is moving along very smoothly. On the 8th Rev. N. B. Fizer, the Union Labor gubernatorial candi- date. spoke at Wynne. Hon. P. D. MoCul- lough of Lee County responded on behalf of the Democrats. Gov. James P. Eagie, the Democratic candidate“, was unable to be pres- ent, having been called from here by official business. Gov. Eagle is president of the State Board of Rallway Commissioners and that body is required to assess all the railroad property throughout the the State during the first week in August, hence the Goy- ernor was compelled to forego participation in the Batesvilie meet- ing. large number of persons were present and the debate wassharp and spirited, Rev. Mr. Fizer presenting local, State and national issues from his standpoint in a masterly man- ner, and Hon. PF. D. MeCuliough making a briliiant argument, showing the benefits which had accrued to Arkansas under Demo- cratic rule, and the necessity for the con- ence supremacy of that party in State at- airs. To-day (August9), Rev. Mr. Fer will dis- cuss issues with some prominent Democrats at Brinkley. From that Int the canvass will be continued unset import - ant town in tne Stase has Gov.

The Tetal Cost te Exceed $75,000 — The Pregress ef the Mevemenxt for the Es- tablishment ef a Dewn-Town Gymna- siam — Behemiazn Turszers at Omaha— McAuliffe in Training—Cyeling Notes. Work on the Pastime Athletio Olud's build- ing was commenced yesterday morning by the excavators and the contract calls for its compietion by January 1, 1891. It was found im possibile to eréct the building for anything like tue sum first raised, but the promoters buckled to itand have succeeded in meeting the additional cost. Now the club-house when completed, with the lot and the tur- nishing altegethber, will cost not less than $75,000 and may exceed that sum. Oonsider- ing whata colossal undertaking this was for an athletic club in 6t. Louis this should be hailed as a great era net only in local but Westera athietics, for there is noth- ing in the way of a first-class club- house de- longing te any athieticclub west ef Detreit, outside ef San Francisco, not even in the much vaunted Windy Olty. There is now an actual active membership of a few over five hundred and, taking into acceunt the fact that the club iseniyalittie more thaa twe years old, its members feel justified in mach pride and rejoicing.

The Missouri Amateur Athietic Clab will send Dan Leahey and Herman Wienecke to Kansas City on the 15th of this month to take part in the Irish Nationalists games there. It seems incredible, but it is nevertheless the fact, that only three out of every five oaremen in St. Levis can swim. Swimming should be made compulsery at our clubs for active members. There will be swimming races at the Nat- atorium the latter }part of thie month. The events will be 1,000 yards and 100 yards, open to all amateurs, boy races and tab racing. Entries can be made with John C. Meyers. „There will be raclug arranged for the members of the Nerth End Rowing Club only on the 24 sum day im September.

OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 8.—This afternoon six members of the Cedar Rapids Association of Tyre had arrived te participate in the Bo- hemian Gymaastic Tournament of the West- ern District at this city. From Chicago five associations have arrived which comprise twenty-eight ekiliful athkietes. The Chicace societies represented are Pizensky Sokol, T. J. Sokol, C. A. Sokol and Cechle Sokol. MII- waukee is represented by two members and St. Louis by ene. Delegations from Crete and Wilbur, comprising about twenty members, will come in this eveving. About 100 delegates have already assembled and are being entertained by committees. The Bohemian Turners, itis interesting to know, took all the first prizes at Paris in 1689 atthe World's Exhibition, and won about 10,000 franes in prizes, and it is expected that a remarkable jexhibtion of gymuastic ait will be seen atthe competition at Russer’s Park on Sunday.

Louis cyclists are eagerly anticipating the big annual racing meeting of the St. Louls Bicycle Track Association which takes place at Compton Avenue Park next Saturday and the bustie and stir incident to the meeting have already become a prom- inent feature of life in this city. Since the entry bianks have been distributed Secretary Wright has been busy recording entries and 8 the numer- ous questions asked. The entries already re- ceived will make the meeting an usparalleled success, and as the open events de ust close before August 12, the largest number of racing men that have ever been gathered at a local mecting will compete for the valuable prizes effered. Theracing programme is judiciously ordered and the list of prizes varied, attract- ive and costly, representing a value of $1,000. This, together with St. Louis“ repatation for able management and honorable treatment of racing men will cali out the fastest flyers from througbout the land, and with good weather the contests will be brilliamt and exciting.

His perform- ance not only corroborates she results of the mile championship on the previous Satar- , day, and proves him to be, bey doubts,the finest rider at the distance, of the present day, but shows to What a pitch the science of cycie racing and pacing has been brought. In the old days the improvement in times was frequently attributed in a great measure to the improvement in the manufacture ef machines, but during the last few years there has been little if any advance ja this direction se far as ordinary bicycles are concerned. This further reduc- tien of the recerd may therefore be attributed te Osmona’s aavendh both in Pen pha and pace, to the better method of pacing—per- fected by Dr. E. B. Turner—and tothe im- provement in the making and keeping of tracks specially put down for cycle racing. Cycling Chat, Rochester claims 4,000 cyclists. Hartford now bas a ladies’ cycling club. Next Saturday’s races will be started at 2:30 p. m. sharp. Friday’s rain did the roade a greal deal of good, and regular runs will now again be taker each Sunday. The Missouris Have at last captain.

The Cycling Ciub’s annual picnic takes place to-day at Indian Cave on the Telegraph road. The start will be made from the club- house at 7a. m. sharp, under command of Capt. Jordan. At the meeting of the eycling club last Monday W. A ing was clected a repre- sentative to the division board of officers in appreciation of the hard werk done in behalt of the league in this city. Last Wednesday the Belleville cyclists held a meeting and took steps to form a cycling club im their city. Another meeting wil be held this week at which the constitution and by-laws will be adopted.

Now tbat this club has a captain, the runs which were abandoned since July will be resumed, and a consequent boom ia the membership sheuld result. The N. C. U. championabips, held at Pad- dington, July 12, were favered by a fine day, although the wiud was quite heavy.

AN OLD PAPER, Where the Oldest Newspaper Was First Established, From the Nineteenth Century, The Pekin Gazette, which was established in the year9ll of the Christian era, has been regu- larly published since 1361 A. D. and is at the present time edited by a committee of six mem- bers of the Academy of Han Lih. Not only is it by far the oldest newspaper in the world, but it is also infinitely more instructive and interesting than all other existing official gazottes taken together. To the student of Oriental statecraft tae yellow volumes in whieh these gazettes, transiated into Eng- lish, are bound up and issued annually, should be of remarkable value. For here, in the formal record et all the important ordl- nances, ceremonies, proceedings, judgments, opinions and transactions of the Chinese Government, wecan see partially unfolaed the working constitution of the greatest Asiatic empire and the oldest empire in the world; we can follow the movement of the administrative wheels and obtain a glimpse of the system upon which the machinery is constructed. It becomes thus possible to form some trust - worthy conception of the prisciples that underlie this vast organization—unquestioned authority; lofty ostentation of pubiic moral- ity; the affectation of profound reverence for churches, ritnais and all things pertaining to divinity; deep respect for tradition and an- cestral usage coupled with steady encourage- ment of classic learning; entire religious tol- eration conjoined with the peremptory asser- tion of civil supremacy; provincial home rule controlled, at least in form, by a Vigilant and despotic central executive; in short, the continueus experience of ages applied to the management b dynasty of miscellaneous fribes and races and an immense mixed population. We are shown, of courage, only the external aspect of things; we probably see mo more than an as- tute and carefully calcuiating government thinks expedient to disclose. And we — assume tust pDowhere are the arcana iwper!! more strictly withheld, so that the reality may be safely guessed to be very different from the outward published aspect of affairs. Never- theless, in this ample ebronicie of current events and transactions, in the notifications and orders, in their style and their substance, we can recognize a leviathas government in full play and pewer, n n & masterful and appareatiy successful fashion with at léast one problem that has long troubied the world and still occasionally perplezes even European statesmen. many a forei«un DUSTING WILL DISAPPEAR,.

Special Correspondence of SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 8. LAINE and the Beh - ring Sea matters are still the chief sub- ject of gossip in neval and military , circles. The officers of the army are tired ef the imrecucus desuetude enforced upon them by peace and the young men among the West Pointers would giad- ly weicome any trouble which would give them a chance to rise. It is much the same in the navy, and if a war should break out with England the United States will have hundreds of ambitious men who will jump to fight. ISpent last week at Deer Park and found quite a military coterie there. Among them was Uol. Kellogg, who served for years on the staff of Gen. Thomas, and who married, I think, Gen. Thomas’ daugh- ter. He wason Gen. Sheridan’s staff at the | time he died, and he had been ih the regular army for twenty-five years. In speaking of the English and their actions last night he voiced the sentiment of many of his fellows when he sald: „War is the soldier’s harvest. Our army has had no chance to distinguish itself since 1865, and the officers of the reyular army would welcome a war with England. As for me, I spent four years fighting the South and I have put ia seventeen years fighting Indians and I would new like to have a chance at the English. It John Ball can’t take care of Oan- ada it ought te belong to us,and if he gets into trouble with us we will take it. If we don't want it we can give it tothe Irish and I Imag- ine the Irish sympathizers en the other side would make things lively for England in a contest with the United States.“ Uncle Jerry Rusk was one of the party who listened to Col. Kellogg’s remarks, and thd question next came up as to the available troops the United States nad In case of trouble. Our militia was referred to and the Secretary of Agriculture, though he stated that he did not have any opinion to express as to the sit- uation, stated that he could raise a division in Wisconsin on twenty-four hours’ notice and that the other States of the Union could probably do the same, A NAVAL OFFICER, in commenting upon the way in whieh Blaine had handied the American end of the dispute, told one of Dick Wintersmith’s stories of Blaine. It related to a sailor who was at Washington and who met Biaine fer the rst time. When he was introduced he looked Blaine all over and said: Are you the Blaine who was born in Penasyivania?’’ ‘‘Yes,’’ re- plied the Plumed Knight, ‘‘I was born there. Are you the Blaine who was in Cengress and who made the brilliant speeches as the Ro- ublican leader ef tae House?“ Tes, said lane, 1 have been in the House too. Are you the Blaine, the old sea captain went on, while his look of ad miration grew stronger and stronger, ‘‘who has several times been a candidate for the Presidency of the United States, and whose speeches I have read for the last twenty ears?’’ I have been in the Senate, said laine, ‘‘and I have made some speeches.’’ „Well, concluded the sallor, as be reached out bis hand for another shake, ‘‘I want to tell you that I think you are the smartest man in the world.“ Wu,.“ here he stepped back and looked at Biaine, you could do anything. I believe you could sail around Cape Horn and back again on a shingle, and do it so well that you would not even wet the seat of your pants. Two of the richest young men in the United States are new stepping at Deer Park. They are young King, the son of the great Texas cattle owner, and the young fellow who mar- ried King’s dauguter. King was originally a steamboat capiain om the Mississippi River. He went out to Teras, and when he died a few years ago he had more cattie than any other man in the world. His widew now manages his estate, and I understand that her eow boys branded something like 30,000 calves thisspring. This would represent a herd of something 800,000 or 400,000 cattle, and the King boys are worth miljions. Wher I saw them each wore a soft hat ot a dove color and Ilwastold that they came to Deer Park in broad- brimmed straws of the style common in Texas. As seen as they saw that these ewere not im fashion at Deer Park one ot them telegraphed an order to A HATTER in New York and the next day the stylish hats which they now wear came C. O. D. This story was told mein company with Uncle Jerry Rusk, and as I commented upon bis tall white plug, hesaid: ‘*] don't wender that the King boys wanted a different style of bat if they were not in fashion. Every part of the country has its own head gear, and I shall never forget an experience of mine at Nantasket, near Boston. I was Governor of Wisconsin at the time, and out there we wr. so nothing was so genteel as a Diack Sk tile. I came Kast to get a short rest at the sea- shore, and when I landed on Nantas- ket Beach 1 found that only myself and the coachman were wearing high bats. These Bostonese are a curious sort of people, you know. They want to look at your geneodlog- ical tree and analyze your blood to see that is blue before they have much to do with you.

I asked bim to- day as to whether he thought the law offered as many adyantages to young men to-day as it did en he entered upon its practice. He replied: ‘‘I think it does, though the com- petition is greater. Still there is more money to be made at the law now than ever before. The fees are higher and the practice is changing to correspond with the changes im life and civilization.’’ ‘ Do you think, Judge, said I, ‘‘that the lawyers of to-day are as great in their pro- fession as were the lawyers of the t?’ ‘*‘Iden’t know.’’ sald Justice Bradley, 1 doubt much whether we have any greater lawyers to-day than we had inthe past.

Rusk abont Matt Carpenter. ‘‘Matt Oarpenter’s widow,’’ said the Secretary of Agriculture, . ie now living in Milwaukee. Senator Oarpenter left an estate of about $90,000. This was made up of his life insurance policy of $50,000, and his liprary, whieh sola for about $40,000. Senator Carpenter made an immense amount of money at the law, but he never saved a cent, and it was only due to his friends that his life insurance policy was kept up. He would have allewed it to lapse if we had not urged himagain aud again to attend to it, and had not seen that he did attend to it. A6 it was, his wife was left enough te live upon, and she has increased the amount by careful investment. Wat was the secret,’’ said I, “of Carpen- ter’s success?’’ Matt Carpenter,’’ replied Gen. Rusk, **had wonderfu! abfiity asaspeaker, and he was a greater lawyer than he was a states- man. He had that kindof a mind by whicn he was able to believe that every case he took up had the right on his side, and what’s more than that, he could make you believe it. W hen he came to the Senate he had to DECIDE FOR HIMSELF which side of a case was the right one, and he told me once that he did not like it, and that he would prefer te have some one else make the decision for him, ashe might choose the wrong side, asd la that case it would be an intellectual impossibility almost, for him to reverse his decision, ‘*Senator Matt Carpenter,’’ said Gev. Rusk, „was a weil read man, but hie greatest intel- lectual possession was his knowledge of the Bible. He knewthe Scriptures by heart and he could quote verse and text In Ulustration of any point, whether he was before a jury or upon thestump. He often eorrected preach- ers in their quotations and wher the stories charging him with leading a dissoiute life were published the people of Wisconsin would not believe them, and the preachers steod up for him. He told how he came to make of the Bible. Is was when began to study law. He wanted to be taken into the office of Rufus Choate and he called upon Choate at bis law office in Boston for his ad- vice and permission to study with him. Cnoate looked at him for a moment and then asked him if he was in eargest. He replied that he was and Mr. Choate then told bim that if he wanted to become a great lawyer he must o home and learn the Bible by heart. be Ile, said he, is the foundation of all law and if you want to become a great lawyer you must know it. If you want to make a good speaker, study the Bible, fer the Bibie is the foundation of all good speak- ing. Young Carpenter did not now what to make of this advice, but Cheate refused to admit him to his office until he had learned it and he went home and be- gan the work. He worked day and night for seven monthsand at the end of that time came back to Ghoate, having committed the whole to memory. He then studied Blackstone and Kent, but be once told me he thought that the time he put in op the Blole was the best spent time of his wholelife. He said he had never made a speech or tried a case that he did not use the knowledge thus acquired and the nperer the case the moreof the Bible ha threw into it. Gis quotations always toek with the jury and a slice of the Old or New Testament often bolstered some v poor evidence.
