LONDON, June 27.—A good deal of anxiety is felt m official circles as to the reception which it is probable the Prince of Wales will receive in the city on the occasion of the German Emperor’s visit to the Guili Hall. The rumors which have been current of the divorce proceedings of Lord and Lady Brooke also refiect upon the Prince, who, as is well known, is very partial to her ladyship. So much so, in fact that the Princess was sometime ago constrained to make a remonstrance on the subject, which, however, only - produced a partial effect. No divorce is possible, as there are faults on both sides. The present chatter is but the echo of an old scandal, which never got out- side of the limits of society proper, and refers to flirtation of her handsome ladyship with young Lord Dudley, who, at the same time, was engaged in carrying on an intrigue with another soci- ety belle. Sir George Chetwynd, whose name has been mentioned in the Brooke af. fair, is a tall, washed-out looking middle-aged man who is devoted to racing, and who de- came notorious through the action for slander which he brought against Lord Durham, who, in a speech at a club, accused him of malpractices on the turf. The result of the trial was that the character of Sir George was considered to be damaged to the extent of a farthing. fir George married the lovely Lady Florence, the widow of the last Marquis of Hastings. Young Lord Dudley lost £12,000 at the Ascot races. He has a predeliction for pretty actresses, and is at the present time engaged in paying court to Miss Letty Lind, who is as well known on your side of i the Atlantic as on this. She isa girl who is pos- sessed of a sweet disposition and has a son about 12 years old. She occupies her leis- ure in devouring blood and thunder periodi- icals and has always had an ambition which Mr. Gilbert satirized in one of his songs as longing To Parade as My Lady., to marry an earl. Certainly she is in the vn ot some- thing like fit Just now. TO GREET THE KAISER. The visit of the German Emperor is being joyously anticipated and great preparations are being made for it. The Emperor and Empress will be received by the Duke of Connaught and two grand banquets will be given tothem at Windsor. The suite of the Emperor and Empress numbers some fifty- eight, and as many of them will not be able to be accomodated at Buckingham Palace, rooms will be found for them at the Buckingham Palace Hotel, while at Windsor, in order to meet the necessary demand which the Castle can not supply, the White Heart Hotel, in High street has been entirely reserved for these guests. The other arrangements which have been made for his Imperial Majesty are that he will dine with the Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry, at their house in Park Lane, after the garden party given by the Prince and Princess of Wales at Marlborough House, on the 9th. The city intends that a gold medal shall be struck asa memento of his Majesty’s visit, and only a few outside the charmed circle will be recipients of this valuable art ingot. The volunteer review, which the Emperor has asked to see, will be held on Wimbiedon commoh on Saturday, July 11, and the troops to be there will number over 20,000. The Dowager Lady Churchill will be the lady-in-waiting on the Empress during her visit. The Duchess of Bedford has placed Norris Castle at the disposalof the Empress during her stay there and the offer has been accepted. ROYALTY AT THE ALTAR. All London is agog over the coming wed- Louise of silver gauze.

The Archbishop guarded himself in the most careful manner from making the slightest imputation upon Mr. Parnell’s honor in the transactions. The whole thing is merely a modern replica of events of the Stuart period in England, when the King refused to account for money which reached his hands. The thing is monstrous, but I acquit Mr. Parnell of all foul play in the mat- ter and so do most of fair minded men. Mr. Parnell is not a man of methodical, busi- ness like nabits. When really roused, he has enormous energy, but until roused he is distressingly casual. And when we re- flect upon the fact that his receipt of the sums was known to all the world and his own followers, above all, knewthe facts accu- rately, how cafl any man suppose that Mr. Parnell intended to deal unfairly with these moneys without including an acquiescent following in the same charge? Moreover, until Mr. Parnell was disturbed in his mental balance by the sickening adula- tion of his adorers, be was a man wlio seemed to care little for money or what money procures. He seemed rather like the younger Pitt—cold, passionless, isolated— with Pitt’s haughtiness and reserve and cyn- icism, but also Pitt’s aloofness from the sor- did occurrences of life. The offering of £40,000 was lavish, coming as it did from the poorest people in the poorest country of Western Europe. But Mr. Parnell had been energetically striving for Ireland ata time when he had no prospect of ever receiving 40,000 pence for his services, so that this splendid tribute, while it was a worthy mark ofa people's gratitude, was in no way the anticipated and looked for payment ofa po- litical mercenary. The Irish people made Mr. Parnell not so much a parliamentary leader as an Emperor. He really lost sight of all the ordinary obil- gations of public men to their constituents. He returned members of Parliament by Kis nod. He paid their expenses. He bad con- trol of every penny subscribed. What did it matter whether he held the money in one pocket as owner, or in another as trustee? This is obviously fallacious reasoning, but monarchs fall into such fallacies. And he was not only allowed todo all this, but any man who ventured to hint that such a course was not wise or constitutional or creditable, was summarily pilior- ied by the very men who now denounce Mr. Parnell in such unmeasured terms. Surely a little correspondence with facts would be better than all this overiaden emphasis and exaggeration. Mr. Parnell’s political sins are many. Bat no good purpose can be served by pouring un- measured torrents of mere abuse upon him. Neither does Mr. Parnell mend his position by maliciously promoting faise charges against Mr. Tim Healy. Mr. Healy tsa most courageous man. His courage redeems much that is trying in his character and condact. He is, perhaps, an ambitious man. He has not Sexton’s great sagacity and balance, but heis a far more effective foe than Sexton. Tocall sucha manas Mr. Healy a mere place-hunting hireling is in- famous and is nearly on a par with the mon- ey charges against Mr. Parnell. I wish em- phatically tosay thatthe great silent mass ot optnion in Ireland shrinks back from all these charges and counter charges and yearns for a return tothe discussion and ex- amination of permanent political principles instead. LORD AND LADY BROOKE. AN ACTION FOR LIBEL GROWING OUT OF THE BACCARAT TRIAL. Lorpor, June 27.—The echoes of the bDac- carat scandal case have not entirely died away. It crops out to-day in the announce- ment that Lord and Lady Brooke have in- structed counsel to bring action against the society papers that insist on coupling Lady Brooke’s name with the recent trial in such a way as to intimate that she was largely responsibie forit, and in the report that the Queen has had compiled a list of the names of ladies of the nobility, whose curi- osity led them to attend the trial, witha view of striking their names from the cour list. It is stated to-night that a numberof lead- ing radical members of Parliament intend bringing up the baccarat scandal before Pans liament in an entirely unexpected shape at an early date and in such a manner as to put the Government in an uncomfortable position. Mr. William Summers, Liberal member of Parliament, said: To cheat at cards is a crime itis well known. Sec. 17 of 8 and 9, Vic. C. 100. is perfectly explicit on that point. Every person, runs that section, who shall by any fraud or unlawful device or {ll prac- tice, in playing at or with cards, dice or other game, win from any person of the same, and being convicted thereof. shall be punished accordingly. Now is an unlawful game has already cided in the affirmative by Sir Henry kins in the case of Jenks vs. Turpin.

PARNELL’S MARRIAGE. ITS PROBABLE EFFECT UPON IRISH POLITICS— Lowpor, June 77.—There is Parnell’s marriage has had the effect of still- ing the clamor of the ‘‘Nonconformist con- science’’ in England. By Englishmen a mar- riage under such a condition is regarded asa perfect atonement, and though in Irelanda divorce is not recognized, still the sentiment of the people Is satisfied by the legalization ofthe relations between Parnell and Mrs. O’Shea. However, itis not to be assumed that the event will allay the bitterness of the Trish crisis. The Surpar Post-Disratcn’s correspond- ent has seen the telegram which Parnell dis- patched announcing the ceremony. It was sent from Brighton at 7:30 on Thursday even- ing. The following are the exact words: I was married this at9 o’clock to Mrs. O’Shea at Steyning before the and Super- intendent Registrar of the district, and the will s y be solemnized in a London church, there having been a delay in obtaining a license for this. The telegram was signed simply ‘‘Par- nell.“ It is the first document on which he has ever been known to put his private ad- dress Nothing is settled about Parnell’s visit to America, but itis certain he will go across late in the autumn. Hewill require funds for the general elections, which are now cer- tain to come on next spring. Reports from Carlow say that the McCarthyites are conf- dent of carrying the seat. Parnell has a bad candidate in Kettle, while the McCarthyite candidate, Hammond, is an avowed Whig, who never took any part in Nationalist poli- tics. The polling will not take place for near- ly three weeks, so it is early to prophecy. Now that Parnell’s marriage is an accom- fact even Mr. Parnell’s friends are wondering whether it was worth so many Genialsas he has given out in regard to it, simply for the purpose of throwing the news- paper reporters off the scent. The news- paper reporters were perfectly certain all the time that the wedding was to come off, and it is questioned whether, after all, Mr. Parnell escaped any of the discom- forts which he expected to escape by deny- ing from time to time that he bad procured a license for the marriage or that there was to bea marriage. The happy bridegroom has at least succeeded in keeping himself in the public eye for a few days again and given his enemies of the National Press a new chance to attack him. Comment on the varies widely, according tothe bias of the person or the newspaper which discusses it. Some are kind enough to say that Mr. Parnell will, toa large extent, rehabilitate himself m the so- cial world, or in that i social world for which he has any regard. Others are equally sure that not even by this marriage can he regain any of the prestige in the Irish party which he seems now to have lost so utterly. ENGLAND’S GREAT MAN. GLADSTONE’S ILLNESS GIVES RISE TO GREAT ANXIETY AMONG HIS FRIENDS. Loro, June 27.—It is useless for the Lib- eral leaders to attempt to conceal the fact that Gladstone’s illness gives rise to general anxiety. As to the facts of his ailments, too much mystery is kept up, which only adds to the anxiety, and that anxiety is deepened by the remembrance of the issue of reassuring bulletins during his attack of influenza, ata time, when it is now confessed, he was seriously ill. His age in itself is sufficient reason for feeling uneasy, when he is ordered prolonged rest. It is at all events very improbable that he will be seen at Westminster again this year. He will not again be allowed to address meetings for some weeks to come. His political activities, un- less a general election should be suddenly sprung on the country, will be confined toa consultation as to the private leadership of his party, Perhaps at no time during the last five years could he be better spared than now, for there is a iull in the political controversy. There is nothing pressing which demands the attention of the leaders on one side or the other, but Giad- stone occupies a unique position. His grow- img years make his followers despondent whenever it is stated that he is ill. 9 Morley’s health has improved. He is goin to the seaside next week. , Even more public anxiety is displayed about *s illness than about Gladstone’s, ‘yor it is frankly stated that this wonderfully popular Noncomformist preacher is making no progress toward recovery. The gravity of his condition may be gathered from the fact that an all-day prayer-meeting forSpurgeon’s complete and speedy restoration to health has been arranged for Monday nextat the tabernacle, begining at 7 a. m. and closing at 9p.m. This will be one of the longest prayer | on record. Similar meetings will be heid simultaneously in other churches throughout England. Popular sympathy here for Spurgeon is as Keen as it was in America during Beecher’s fatal iliness.

CONSTANTINOPLE, June 77.—The uprising in the Province of Yemen is for the purpose of setting Raschid Effendi on the throne of Tur- key, and the movement has many adherents throughout the Ottoman Empire. It has been known for a long time that the ex-Sul- tan Murad is in such a condl- tion of physical and mental incapacity that his former partisans have quite abandoned any thought of seeing him re- stored to the throne. Failing in Murad, they have turned to another brother of the Sultan, Raschid Effendi, whois next eligible in the succession according to law, A yearago the Sheikh-ul-Islam was sum- moned to the palace and kept a prisoner for some time on the report of some palace sples that on the occa- sion of the funeral of his child there had been a kind of conference at his house as to a change of dynasty. A few days ago Sheikh Hamdi Effendi, head of the Mek Livik Han, and oneofthe most important after the Sheikh-ul-Islam was, without any warning, arrested by anagent ofthe palace, to which he was immediately taken. He was charged with associating with per- sons who conspired to bring about the dethronement of the Sultan and his replace- ment by Raschid Effendi. The unfortunate Sheikh was, after undergoing vigorous ex- amination, subjected to the most horrible and nameless torture. He was then sent on boarda Turkish steamer, which has taken im away into ere. As it is now known that both Midhat and his companion in exile, Mahmoud Dah, were murdered by orders from Constantinople, it is exceedingly likely that Sheikh Hamdi has gone the same way. The Sultan thinks far more of himself and Constantinople than the restof the empire. The natural consequence is discontent and disorder, before which such an administra- tion as that of Turkey is rless. The German strategist. t Yon None, shortly before his death said that the Eastern question would finaliy be settled under the walls of Constantinople. The events of every week and day testify to the ac- curacy of his prediction. 80 dis- pirited, disorganized and wanting in intelm - gence have all the elements of the population of the Ottoman Empire become that they must accept whatever and whoever may be established at Constantinople. The concen- tration of power and the incapacity of those wielding it atthe capital render the task of whoever is prepared to grasp it and rule Tur key comparatively easy. A foreign diplomatist at Constantinople said to-day: ‘‘The power that first succeeds in getting two ironclads off Stamboul with their guns pointed up at Yildiz will secure the signature of the Sultan to any treaty put be- fore him. There is no serious person in Con- stantinople but agrees with him. PLANNING FOR WAR. EUROPE’S GREAT POWERS FORMING ALLIANCES FOR THE FUTURE STRUGGLE. Lorpos, June 277.—Alliance continues to be a prominent topic of discussion throughout Europe. In some quarters it is regarded as giving assurances of peace, in others of a menace to all hopes of peace. The fact that Russia is hastening to completion large quan- tities of munitions of war tor her army and her navy is regardea very generally as a danger signal. Russia's withdrawal of gold from England and from continental canks and her investments in France occa- sions much concern. In view of these facts no one vemtures to deny that there must be an understanding between Russia and France and that an allflance between them is not only possible but probable. It is believed, however, that this will depend largely on the attitude of England toward the Triple Alli- ance. Emperor William of Germany has endeav- ored to induce Holland to join the Alliance, AL 5 rr HE 1 : Il Flere actually named, many shared the same fate. that the before I came away, I went down to the cler, a restaurant on the wharf, to friend, and found that he had gone to at to 821175 himself, as those who are under suspicion are at regular intervals.

STORY OF A FRENCH SERVANT WHO HAD ALWAYS WORN WOMAN’S CLOTHES. Panis, June 27.—An exceedingly curious case has just come to light at the Hospital of St. Antoine. A few days ago an old woman presented herself at that institution to be treated for some complaint. She was admitted without any delay and was entered on the books under the name of Opportune Signol, while her age was re- corded as 72. Asa matter of course she was placed in the woman’s ward, but on Wednesday when her temperature was being taken by the House Surgeon he discovered that there was a mistake some- where, for Signol was not an old woman at all, buta man. Of course a sensation was produced, the odd fact became known, and the inguiry which was held tncreased it, for it was there developed that Signol had passed for a woman ever since his infancy, and this was the first time the deception had been discovered, He had never worn men’s clothing but once, and that was on the day he passed before the Council of Revision. When he had to be stripped for the pur- poses of medical examination at the age of 17 on being examined as to his physical fitness for the army. He stated that he had been a female servant on a farm at Lion-Sur-Mer, where he remained for eleven years, and then he came to Paris, where he served in turn as cook and ladies’ maid in schools, as well asin private families for a period of twenty years, however,he had been most of the time a femme de chambre. On being questioned as to his motive for this peculiar proceeding, Signol replied that was all the fault of his stepmother, who had forced him into petticoats ever since the time he was short-coated, and who had only provided him with the proper clothes of his sex on one occasion, namely, when he went up before the Revision Committee, as stated above. MSIRI’S KINGDOM. FLAG-PLANTING EXPEDITIONS WANTED IN KATANGA. Lorpon, June 27.—A letter received this afternoon from an English missiunary resi- dent in Katanga, Msiri’s kingdom, in the south ofthe Congo Free State, states that any expedition which attempts to obtain concessions or to plant flags will meet with a warm reception. No official of the Congo Free State has yet approached Miri, the most powerful potentate of all that part of Africa, who has risen on the ruin ot the ancient kingdoms of the Muata Cazsembe and he Muata Janow. Mr. Sharpe, who has quite recently re- turned to Blantyre from Katanga, had a bad six days with Msiri. It is well Known that Mr. Sharpe (now one of Mr. H. H. Johnston's vice-consuls) went to Katanga with the usual bagful of British flags. He met with great difficuities by the way. Cazembe, at the south end of Lake Moeco, did his best to hinder the expedition from going further. Mr. Sharpe and his men were nearly starved. At last Mstri was reached, but that potentate gave no encouragement to flag distribution. Mr. Joseph Thompson, who was trying to getinto Katanga about the same time, was not able even to see Msiri, for many of his men were down with the smail-pox. It is feared that the expedition sent out by Mr. Rhodes has not succeeded in obtaining the concessions expected, and it is equally feared that when Capt. Stairs appears before Msiri for the purpose of imposing the suzerainty of the Congo Free State he will have a disagree- able reception. MACDONALD’S LAST LETTER.

Clari- noal and Capt. Damas, who, it is scarcely necessary to add, is an intimate friend of the husband 's. The defense set up was sufficiently in Kkeep- ing with the rest of the case and was that the plaintiff? had never treated his wife with proper respect, and, on the contrary, instead of curbing her, had allowed her to do all sorts of imprudent and unladylike things. The lady was con- demned to spend five weeks in jail, and Capt. Damas was fined 500 francs. MRS. LESLIE’S LEASE. OF HER COSTLY LITIGATION WITH HENRY y. GILLIG. Loxrpox, June 27.—Mrs. Frank Leslie has at last closed her costly litigation growing out of Gillig’s defunct American Exchange. She lent Henry F. Gillig $50,000, taking as security the lease of the premises in the Strand for seventeen years. After Gillig went under this security would have been a good investment if the receivers appointed for the American, English and French branches had not quar- rolled among themseives, the result being § f sion of the lease, the judge decided she must pay the cost of the suit, which will practically wipe out the sum fer which she has sold the lease. Her solicitor’s bill covers 100 pages of foolscap and reaches a total of $7,000. The settlement of this suit will leave the way open for other unfortunate creditors to get something. They have been bluffed off for three years now, during which time what little money was realized from Gillig’s ‘assets has been gradually absorbed by receivers and solicitors. influential character in that parish and was respected and honored by its best people. was born free, liberty being the gift of his white father, and was raised in Baton wives and children of Confederate soidiers, and since then has devoted himself to philan- thropic acts towards whites and blacks im- partially.

CHILI’S NEW MINISTRY. ITS POLICY ANNOUNCED BY THE PREMIER TO THE CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES. Wasuincton, D. C., June 27.—The Bureau of the American Republics has received in- formation that the Republic of Chili has or- Don Julio Banades Espinosa, the new Pre- mier of the Cabinet appeared in the Chamber of Deputies on the day before the last steamer left Santiago and made the following an- nouncement as the policy of the new Minis- try: ‘‘I consider it to be an act of courtesy to state the policy of the Ministry, which now appears before you for the first time. The new Ministry will continue the policy of its preiiecessor in office, and will follow out the same ideas, and will labor diligently to put tien end to the struggle which affects the cred- itof the Republic abroad, which damages important interests and which profoundly disturbs the social tranquility of Chili. It is a change of public servants but hot of opinions oraims. Ourattention will be pri- marily directed to the restoration of internal order which is the sole basis of the country’s prosperity or its progress and of its prestige before the civilized world. To avoid the repe- tition of conflicts which have beenthe start- ing point of the revolution which to-day af- fects the Republic, an early reform of the constitution is necessary under conditions that will terminate antagonism between powers whichis the offspring of perpetual political pertubations and of danger to con- stitutional order. The revolution has deeply affected the economical situation of the State and of private persons. The Cabinet will be inspired by just aspirations of the country and it will serve the ideas ofthe Liberal party and will ever be disposed to stimulate andac- cept any idea or reform that may tend o the progress, peace and aggrandizemefitt of Chill.“ THE NATIONAL CONGRESS, MANIFESTO DIRECTED AGAINST THE AGENTS 0 THE REVOLUTIONARY FACTION. SANTIAGO, June 27.—The National Congress of Chili has sent a message to the various delegations. It protests against the agents of the revolution in claiming to be delegates from the late Congress. The document states that such delegation could not be possible, as the late Congress never met forthe purpose of delegating its powers, and that such commission was not even signed by a ma jority of the late Congress. II ad- dition, it is stated that the late Congress possessed no constitutional power in any case to delegate its powers. In any case such power fell to the ground, when the Congress itself expired by the election of another on May 29. The paper then goes to state that the Na- tional Congress resolves to approve as valid and legal each and every one of the contracts entered into by the Govern- mentof Chili before and after Jan. 7, 1891, to disprove and annul as vold all obligations entered into by the Revolutionary Board, and to hold them responsible de- fore the proper authorities, for the part taken by them in carrying them out. That alithe members of the revolutionary board, and all those acting with or for them, are considered as violators of the constitution and laws of Chill. A HEAVY FAILURE. Wall. Littte Rock, Ark., June N. - Thomas W. Baird, the largest machinery dealer in the State, with a branch house in Memphis, has failed. He confessed judgment this evening ‘in the Pulaski Circuit Court for $20,535 in favor of the Ames Iron Works, and an execution on the property of Mr. Baird was immediately placed in the hands ot the Sheriff, The total liabilities will not fall short of $80,000, while the assets, consisting of stocks and notes, amount to over $100,000. He owes the German National Bank $18,400; Bank of Little Rock, $23,000; Exchange National Bank, $8,000. These amounts are all secured by first-class collateral. The other creditors are not named, and as Mr. Baird has been sick at home for several days they cannot be obtained. The failure is due to slow collections and the dullness in trade. It is supposed a receiver will be appointed Monday. No man stood higher in Little Rock than he and bis failure is universally re- gretted. ö Water- Works for Mt. Vernon, Mr. VERNON, III., June N.

The people have a right to claim from their representa- tives their best care and attention to the great subjects of legislation in which the entire country is interested. This is denied them ff their representatives take their seats burdened with private bills, in which their immediate. neighbors are exclusively inter- ested and which they feel they must be dil ligent in advancing if they would continue in public life. The relations of our countrymen toward their government should be founded upon their love for it as the fountain head of their national life; their faith in it as the power which preserves them a free people, thelr reverence foritas the perfect work of the highest patriotism. Their confi- dence in justice and equality and their pride in its ownership and management. In the light of these considerations, no thoughtful American can shut his eyes to the truth that when our people regard the Government as the source of individual benefit and favorit- ism, and when their interest in it is meas- ured by the extent to which they hope to realize such benefitand favoritism, our popular government isin dangerous hands and its entire perversion is alarmingly im- minent. Measures of a general character and apparently proposed for ihe public good frequently originate in selfish calculations or so completely subserve in their details self- ish plans, that they also tend toward the fatal point of sordidness amongthe people and unjust paternalism inthe government. No matter what plausible pretexts may be advanced for such legislation if it has in it these elements it ought to be condemned. Neither the cry of protection to American in- terests nor pretended solicitude for the pub- lic good ought to succeed in concealing schemes to favor the few at the ex- pense of the many, nor should the importance tothe country of legislative ac- tion upon any subject divert us from inquiry concerning the selfish motives and purposes which may be hidden behind the proposal of such legislation.“ KANSAS POLITICS. YOUNG MEN COMING TO THE FRONT IN THE RANKS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. TOPEKA, Kan., June 27.—The ‘‘young crowd“ is having everything its own way now, so far as Republican politics are con- cerned, and the indications are that the old leaders will be forced to take a back seat and occupy it permanently. Ever since the fall election a large proportion of the Repub- lican party have been disgusted at the man- ner in which the party machinery has been manipulated and every opportunity has been seized upon to express their indignation. Senator Plumb has found himself between cross fires and will find ita dificult matter to preserve his standing in the party. Wm. Higgins, Secretary of State; Ben Simpson, Supreme Court Commissioner; Senator W. J. Buchan and John Smith, Secre- tary of the Republican Central Committee, are the recognized leaders of the old crowd and believe in making the future fights of the party on the oldline. But they made such a poor showing last fall that the younger politicians think it is time for them to step down and out. All that is meant dy the term young crowd“ by which the new faction is known isa generalturning over. The hew element in the party believes that war issues should be forgotten. It wants to see Western Re- publicans take a stand on live issues and organize to rescue the party from the domi- nation of Wall street. Ralph Easley of the Hutchinson News, Deil Valentine of the Clay Center Times, Charley Scott of the Iola Register, John R. Burton, Senator Murdock of Eldorado, and a half dozen other young Republicans of equal prominence are leading the fight of the young crowd’’ and seem to understand one another thoroughly. They have already brought out a candidate for Governor in the person of Robert Moore, a Butler County farmer, who presided over the last State Re- publican Convention. Moore is a typical Kansas granger. For the past ten years he has been chairman ofthe Republican Central Committee of Butler County, but was never a candidate for office. He is a shrewd politician and the most agrestic-looking specimen that ever visited a circus or patronizeda merry-go-round, His election as chairman of the last Republican Convention was a happy accident. The Committee on Permanent Organization knew that it would never do to have any one but a farmer preside over the convention, but could not ind a man with a sufficient knowl- edge of parliamentary law to conduct the business. Finally a member from Southern Kansas bethought himself of Moore and straightway he was brought before the com- mittee. The town politicians held up their hands in holy horror. His head was orna- mented by an old white hat which had pro- tected him from the sun ofa half dozen sum- mers, His hair was fully six inches in length and had evidently not known a barber since the purchase of his hat. He had no collar and his percaie shirt was far from clean. His store clothes Were old and had never fitted him. On his feet waa a cheap pair of plow shoes, one of which was unlaced. This is my man, said the Southern dele- te, evidently proud of his find and confi- ent that he would prove a winner. He Was hot mistaken. After a few minutes conver- sation Farmer Moore convinced the commit- tee that he knew enough about Cushing to preside over Congress and his Republicanism could not be questioned. He was shaved, his hair was trimmed and from that time until was master of the situation, He was made a member of the state Central and is the present Chairman of the Butler County Central Committee. The old crowd have several candidates for Governor. The most prominent are Farmer A. W. Smith, Chairman of the state Board of ture, and Col. A. N.

Lew Bernard, As far as the Hamilton NO NEW ELECTION. THE HAMILTON COUNTY DELEGATION WILL HAVE BUT FIFTY-NINE VOTES. CrncrynaTi, O., June 27.—President Louis Reemehn of the Democratic Executive Com- mittee of Hamilton County says that there will be no new election of delegatesto the State Democratic Convention by any act of his. He will not call the committee together to order another primary election. What the rest of the committee may do is quite another thing. This is his position: He will go to Cleveland with eighty-two delegates and they will go into the convention and vote but fifty-nine votes, the number allotted to Ham- ilton County by the State Central Committee. He recognizes the right of the State Central Committee to fix the ratio for delegations and thinks no legal proceedings will be re quired to seat the Hamilton County delega- tion, SECRETARY PROCTOR. VISITS TO MILITARY POINTS IN BOSTON HARROR. Boston, Mass., June F. — Secretary Proctor, accompanied by severalof the State military officials of Vermont, spent this morning in visiting the military points of interest of Boston harbor. In conversation with a reporter Secretary Proctor said that the farmers of Vermont would not join the Alli- ance movement. They will continue to work for their interests through the old parties. There are two organizations of farmers in the State—the Farmers’ League and the Grange. At last week’s convention of the farmers a recommendation was submitted that the farmers join the Alliance, but the convention repudiated it and decided not to form a new political party. The Secretary also stated that as soon as possible a survey of the New England coast would be made by the War Department with a view to selecting additional sites for forti- fications. He would not, of course, state what locations would be chosen until the survey had been made. IN THE INTEREST OF HARMONY. LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 27.—The Courter- Journal has practically abandoned the fight againstthe new constitution. John Young Brown, Democratic nominee for Governor, said in a speech yesterday that he intended to vote for the new constitution and it is un- derstood that the rest of the State ticket will vote for it. The Courier-Journal says the triumph of Democratic principles is more important than any constitution and for harmony’s sake it will cease active opposi- tion. The constitution will certainly be adopted, FRIENDLY RELATIONS SEVERED. PITTsBuRG, Fa., June 27.—C. L. Magee, the Republican leader of Allegheny County, who contributed so largely to the election of Gov. Pattison last year, gave notice to-day that he had decided to sever his friendly relations with the Governor. The latter vetoed sev- eral bills in which Magee was interested. ONONDAGA FARMERS’ CONVENTION. Syracuse, N. ., June 27.—Two hundred Onondega County farmers assembled in con- vention here to-day to promote their inter- ests by political action, Dut not by a third party organization. A number of lively speeches were made this morning. A plat- form of principles was adopted this after. noon. WATERMELONS ice cold and red to the rind HAMILTON, Ont., June 27.—The s- miles scull - ing race between John F. Corbett of Chicago and Dennis Donohue of Hamilton was rowed here this afternoon and won by Corbett. Wm, O’Connor of Toronto, the American cham- pion, acted as referee. Corbett had a slight advantage at the start, but Donotfue recovered that in the first 100 yards and for half a mile the boats were on even terms, and Oorbett began to forge ahead, and when the turning buoy was reached was leading by a longth. In turning the buoy Donohue Was very Clumsy and lost a couple oflengths. The Chicago man had the race well in hand and was an easy winner by five lengths. Time, 2im. 6s.

His absence was chronicled far and wide, but James was not to be found. No one had seen him with a bundle trudging Queenstown and the land of RK also known in Ireland as the states. He reached New York full of e hopes but empty of almost eve That was twenty-six years ago. After years knocking about from place to plac the East, he flnahy found himself in st. found new friends for him and he was one ofthe boys. Summoning all his infiu- ence, he got on the police force and, being good at figures and penmanship, he was placed in the Four Courts office to keep the records, rewrite reports and make state- ments to his superior officer. His presence in the office has never caused a jar, but on the contrary his witty remarks and sunny nature have ligutened many a cloudy day. TOM FOLLOWS THE EXAMPLE. But James had a brother Pom who was sep- arated from him in the family line by several other brothers and sisters. When James left home twenty-six years ago he knew Tom as one of the crowd of young- sters, and they were par.iculariy fond of each other. Tom looked up to James for ex- ample. It was quite natural then that when Tom grew up he should follow the example set by his elder brother, whose sudden de- parture from the homestead be re- membered vividly as he grew up. James had written home very often after his arrival in America telling of good or iil fortune as it came to him and when Tom arrived at the age of 16 or 17, James had made his peace with his parents. A new trouble was in store for them. Tom suddenly dis- appeared about twenty years agoand it was supposed he had gone to join his brother in America, until one day a letter came from Melbeurne, Australia, telling of Tom's safe arrival there. He did not write often, and four years ago, when Mrs. Brady received a letter from Australia briefly tell- ing of her son Tom's death, she delle ved it and the boy was mourned for as lost. A KINDLY PROVIDENCE. Tom had not died. His absence from his haunts in Melbourne may have caused the rumor of his demise, but he arrived in Amer- ica safely about the time the newsof his death reached home. With the guiding hand of a kind providence leading him, he came to St. Louis about one year ago, and here among half a million peo- ple began his struggle for existecce. He did well. He knew several Bradys and met them here, but none of them came from Kil- kenny. When he left home his brother James was somewhere in the East and the hope of finding him in a population of 60,000,000 people never entered his breast. Thomas became acquainted, afew months ago, with William O’Brien, member of the House of Delegates from the Fourteenth Ward, who isa native of Kilkenny. O’Brien also knew James Brady at the Four Oourts very well. After associating with both for some months he was struck with the similarity of feat ures and character and arranged to have the two men meet to see if they were not related in some way, as they were of the same name and ‘‘townies.’’ That meeting took place yesterday afternoon. OLASPED IN EACH OTHER'S ARMS. Officer Brady was out when O’Brien and Thomas Brady called, but they sat down in Capt. Young’s office to walt for him, As Officer Brady entered the door he caught the eye of Thomas. At once those who were present noticed the striking resemblance of the two men. They gazed in- tently at each other for a moment, paled and turned red by turns, and as the recognition was complete they sprang into each other’s armsand wept. They were too agitated to speak, but their eyes and pleased looks were eloquent. On recovering their composure they could not speak rapid enough attempting to bridge the chasm of twenty-six years’ separation. Officer Brady was excused for the day and left the building arm m arm with his new. found brother.

His past record, only so far as it begpeaks his virtues, will be forgotten, and his anti-Slavery and anti- Monopoly record alone remembered. Kansas is essentially a State of hero worshipers, It will make one of Sam Wood the same as it has made of Jim Lane and now makes of James G. Blaine. Stories without end can be told of Ool. Wood. He was so clearly identified with the organization and growth of the State that his biography is its history. He came to Kansas thirty-seven years ago,and at once attained a leadership as an anti-Slavery agi- tator, which he has maintained ever since. He bas be onged to every political party or- ganized since 1834, and has held more offices than any man who ever lived in the State. MRS. WOOD'S LETTER. Mrs. Sam N. Wood, wife of the man killed at Hugoton, has written a letter to the Democrai of this city decharing that her hus- band’s murder was the result of a conspiracy onthe part the Republican party. She declares that the work of the last State Sen- ate is completed. After reviewing the trial, which took her husbdDand to Hugoton, she calis attention to the fact that Judge Botkin and County Attorney Connor left the court- house a few minutes before her husband entered. **Col. Wood came out of the court-room into the vestibule,’’ she says, ‘‘and stepped out upon the ground;as he did so he turned his back to Brennan, who quickly drew his pistol and shot him in the back or left shoulder. Col. Wood raised his hand, looked around and ran along the side toward the west of the church; Brennan ran after him and shot him again in the back. I had got out the buggy and was trying to get between them and had almost reached my husband when Brennan put the pistol close to his face and shot him through the head, and he fell and died in about five minutes. She then gives in detail the manner in which Brennan resisted an attempton the part of Sheriff Cann of Steveus Couuty to ar- rest him, finally surrendering to the Sheriff of Marton County. Im conclusion she says: „„This Jim Brennan has been for more than a year a devoted attache of Judge Botkin, attending his court at different places with him; he has been atevery meeting of our County Commissioners armed and in the room with them ever since the beginning of the County Commissioner and County At- torney contest.These facts have been given me by men who witnessed them. My husband was dying andIdid not watch the crowd. There is not the least doubtin my mind but that this murder was planned by Judge Bot- k onnor and other citizens of Hugo- to ery circumstance confirms this con- clusion.’”’ TO BE KILLED TO-DAY. To give stronger color to he belief Mrs. Wood relates the following incident: ‘‘A little son of ex Judge Nash said in the presence of Mre. Fleming of Ulysses as we drove into town: There comes Sam Wood and they are going to kill him to-day." A girl quickly told him tokeep still, that he was talking too much.

A SICKENING DISCOVERY. The Decomposed Body of David Strickler Found in a Freight Oar. NEWCASTLE,N.Y June 77—There is great ex- citement at Middletown to-night over the discovery of the remains of what is supposed to be the body of young David Strickler. He disappeared about a week ago and no one had seen or heard of him since. This afternoon as a tramp was walking along the railway track he was nearly overcome with a most horrible stench that proceeded from a car on a switch. coal. Two empty bottles were in the car and a butcher knife lying outside near the track.

A FAST CAREER OUT SHORT. ROMANTIC ESCAPADES OF A COUPLE OF THEO- citing and romantic criminal temporarily suspended by the sentencing yesterday to terms in the Parish prison of Willie Martin and Edward Dixey. The first is 17 years ofage and is from Parkville, Mo. Dixey is A and is from England. About two yearsago fate found both youths studying for the ministry tn a theological institution in Missouri. There they learned to drink and gamble and their escapades culminated in their running awayifrom school. They drifted out to San Fran and then started east- ward dete to make a starring tour of crime. Galveston was their first stopping place. There they inaugurated a series of small larcenies that netted them the funds with which to come to New Orleans in good | Shape for fulfilling their scheme. They hired a room and made it the headquarters for their plunder. The Englishman always plot - ted their crimes and Martin executed them. Their modus operandi was for Dixie to keep a lookout while Martin entered the building and did the stealing. In this way they robbed over 100 stores and dwellings, stealing any- thing from a type-writer to an office towel. They confined their operations to the daytime and at night lived a fast and gay life with dissolute women. It was one of this class, a mistress of the precocious Mar- tin, who eventually disclosed their doings to the police and caused their arrest. In prison the. Englishman, the shrewder of the two, proposed that Martin makeaconfession ex- onerating Mim, promising that, when re- leased, he would use all his efforts as well as a remittance he expected from England, to secure the release of Martin. The Missourian generously acquiesced, but before they carried out the plan the extent of their operations became known. The result was that they told their whole story, Martin pleading guilty. With compassion for the youth of the offenders Judge Baker did not consign them to the Pentftentiary, but gave Dixey six months in the parish prison and Martin one year. Both promise most sincerely to reform, saying they are heartily tired of the life they have been leading. Both are desirous of returning to their homes at the expiration of their imprisonment, but their families refuse to pardon them, POISONED HIS COFFEE. THE TROUBLES OF A COLORED DEPUTY MARSHAL. Kansas Crry, Mo., June 77.—J. W. King, a colored Deputy Marshal, to-day swore out @ warrant charging Ella Ragsdale, a colored a woman, with putting paris green in his coffee. The woman was arrested and committed to jail to await a hearing. King is a dignified-looking black man and because he wears gold-bowed spectacles is unpopular in **Belvidere Hollow, where he lives. Heis janitor of houses belonging to J. C. Brewster, and for this reason was given a Marshal's commission. Last week Mrs. Snow, a black woman, decided to hold a cake walk’’ in one of the empty store-rooms of which King is janitor and she failed to get his con- sent to do so and King came to the building at U o’clock at night and threw the cake and tables out of doors and ordered the ‘‘fiddler’’ to cease his labors. Trouble ensued and Policeman Ryan arrested King, first beat- ing his head with his pistol. King was charged witha breach of the place in Police Courtand was discharged. He then swore outa warrant before Justice of the Peace Ganzghorn, causing the arrest of Policeman Ryan, charging him with assault. This morning King became very sick, after Grinking a cup of coffee, and as Mrs. Rags- dale had been around he accused her of poisoning the beverage. TRAMPS RAIDED.

Lzxinoros, Mo., June 27.—For the first time since his arrest, nearly four years ago, Chris Young, to be hanged here at noon Thursday for the murder of Steven Ferguson, gaveupand cried this afternoon when told that his attorney, John 8. Blackwell, had failed to secnre acommutation of the sen- tence as a result of his interview with Gov. Francis. The attorney took numerously signed petitions to the Governor and that Official has taken the matter under advise- ment, but gave Blackwell very little hope, as Young has been twice convicted and sen- tenced to suffer the death penalty. Young has maintained all the time that the Governor would interfere to save him fromthe gallows. Sheriff Mitchell has arranged to hang Young on the same gallows used for the execution of the negro at Mar- shall some months ago, and unless the Gov- ernor interferes sooner it will be brought here and erected Tuesday or Wednesday. same rope and Diack cap will be used.

A PAIR OF *‘REFORMERS.’’ ATcuison, Kan., June 27.—Two notorious ‘*reformers’’ of Atchison are in the hands of the officers of the law. They are Henry Cor- nelius, who isin jan for alleged attempt to criminally assault his deaf and dumb step- daughter, and G. W. Stranahan, a thief, who has deen overtaken by the Sheriff in Salt Lake City after along chase. Stranahan de- longs to the Baptist Church and was a regular communicant. He ran away, taking with him a certified check for $1,000 belonging to his third wife, whom he recently married. He realized the money upon the check by forging her indorsement. These two worthies were shoulder to shoulder with a lot of dema- gogues during the reform period“ m Atchi- son County three yeers ago. Last winter when a savings bank failed Stranahan wanted to furnish a rope to hang the directors. The bank is paying out at the rate of 10 per cent a month and nobody will lose any money by its failure. KEPT TWO SETS OF BOOKS. Prom, III., June 27.—The case of the State against Frank T. Steubenrach, late cashier for the Rock Island Railroad, for the embez- glement of $18,000, has been on trial fora week and only five witnesses have been heard. Some of the testimony is damaging to the company. Counsel for the defense in the opening statement said they were pre- pared to prove that the company kept two sets of books.. One of these was for the in- spection of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission and the other set contained business transactions of thousands of dollars of which no accounting was had. It is the very gen- eral opinion here that Steubenrach will be acquitted. It has been shown that there were two keys to the safe, and several people had access tothe cash. Thecase will prob- ably continue for two or three weeks longer. A BLOOLY FEUD. CaTLETTsErRG.

NEBRASKA City, Neb., June 277.—One week ago yesterday Al Ewan was convicted of criminal libel in the District Court. The evi- dence was wholly circumstantial, and Ewan’s attorneys immediately moved fora new trial. The motion was argued yesterday and a new trial granted. Ewan’s attorney introduced in evidence what purported to be the original manuscript of the Ubelous article signed by Charies Copen- harre together with affidavits of several per- sons who were positive the libelous article was in Copenharre’s handwriting.

The efforts to suppress the important news which went out on the telegraph wires are as widely Known asthe news of the dis- covery. The inspectors and their assistants are not so ready to talk about the subject as Pree Parasite. they were, but from one of the brightest members of the big corps your correspon- dent obtained some very interesting facts, ) which pictures of the encysted and freed trichina will explain. Very few people, said he, understand just what the parasite causing this disease is, how it is introduced into the human sys- tem, and how all danger can be obviated. The trichina spiralis is a worm so minute as to be invisible to the naked eye, but under a high-power microscope it develops into a formidable animal. It belongs to the class of articulates, is about three-thousandths of an inch in length, and is distributed all over the world. Its body is long in proportion to ite thickness, the part below the head is ofa threadlike substance, but the head is provided with two formidable mandibies, which can be used to bore augerwise through fieshy tissues. How the animal originated is not known, but that it has long existed is certain. It was not, however, until late in the first quarter ofthe present century that it was discovered. A German butcher who had been a chemist, but who had fallen in social rank from a strong tendency to liquor, was cutting a piece of pork and noticed a eritty sound as his knife went through the meat. He made a microscopic examination, and found that the meat was filled with ovoidal cells, in the center of which a little worm was curied up.

And never before did foreign deficiencies promise a more favorable market for what we have to sell. The outlook for fall and winter trade in St. Louis was therefore never better than it is now, because the area covered by the commercial field of this city never be- fore held so many consumers, or 80 many with valuable marketable products to exchange for needed supplies. There is reason for believing that not only our old established industries but our many new industrial enterprises and all our mercan- tile establishments will have all they can do to supply the largely increased demand on St. Louis for goods of all kinds, for building materials and for now manufac- turing plants and agricultural machinery. The Post-DIsPATOH believes that an at- tractive programme of fall festivities will demonstrate the effect of exceptional pros- perity and bright prospects upon the vast | population of the Mississippi Valley. It will afford the desired opportunity to great multitudes in the humor fora trip to St. Louis combining business with pleasure and the promotion of new enterprises sug- gested by increased resources. And this increased demand upon the business re- sources of our city is but the precursor of the vastly accelerated increase which will come with the settlement of 1,500,000 ener- getic Americans in the Indian Territory within five years after it is opened to set- tlement. r —vB -— nn... DEPEW EXPLAINS. Feeling constrained to explain or mod- ify his remarkable prophesy at Galena that the only prominent men of our first century who would be remembered by the multitude a thousand years hence would be WASHINGTON, HAMILTON, WEBSTER, LIN- col and GRANT, Mr. DEPEW says he meant only that the multitude, busy with the affairs of their own daya thousand years hence, would know WASHINGTON, HAMILTON, WEBSTER, LINCOLN and GRANT as we know them, while the knowl- edge of JEFFERSON would be left to the antiquarians and students of history. Only a prophet can tell how the busy multitude of Americans a thousand years hence will differ from the Americans of to-day in their principles and ideas of gov- ernment. Butif Mr. DEPEW will go out among the busy American multitudes of to-day and read to them from the writings of JEFFERSON and HAMILTON, he will find a million voters associating JEFFERSON’S name familiarly with quotations from the Declaration of Independ- ence and from JEFFERSON’s famous inaugural, where he will find a thousand familiar enough with HAMILTON to tell of anything great he ever did or to identify a single quotation from his own writings. He will also hear a thousand shouts of ap- plause evoked by quotations from JEFFER- son to one elicited from the multitude by any words with which HAMILTON’s name is identified. It is not the busy multitudes of to-day, but the learned advocates of plutocracy, like Mr. Depew, who forget and mis- represent JEFFERSON’s doctrines, and Overrate the great public services of HAMILTON. The Depews of a thousand years hence may still sneer at the Declara- tion of Independence, as all Hamiltonians do, and denounce asalie the proposition that ‘‘all men are created equal,’’ but the multitude then as now may still hold that the truth of the asserted equality as to inalienable rights is self-evident, eter- nal and essential to just government. Because the plutocrats and centralizers of to-day sneer at JEFFERSON asa slave- holder, it does not follow that the masses a thousand years hence will forget that he was the most advanced abolitionist of his day, and that what he said and did for the cause of emancipation compares with what HAMILTON did or said for the same cause, as the Declaration of Independence com- pares with HAMILTON’s scheme to make our President a King, and our Senate a House of Lords. JEFFERSON, not HAMILTON, was the original apostle of government founded on faith in the people and on the largest res- ervation of popular rights. It was from JEF- PERSON, not HAMILTON, that LINCOLN im- bibed the inspiration of a Government of the people, by the people and for the peo- ple, and the record and words of L- COLN will keep alive the memory and doc- trines of JEFFERSON among the American masses fully as long as the name and doc- trines of HAMILTON are reverenced by the advocates of plutocracy. FRIenDs of Liberalism and homerule everywhere note with alarm the reports of the continued ill-health of Mr. GLADSTONE. The critjcal period in the cause of the Liberal party of England is approaching and signs of victory under the brilliant and inspiring leadership of the Grand Old Man are in the air. The loss of his active lead- ership might be fatal and would certainly be severely felt in the approaching cam- paign. Hosts of people outside of Great Britain will join in the wish that Mr. 81 — Ir is not becoming in Mr. PARNELL to exhibit a proud consciousnesa of rectitude : and he ought not to expect the world to fall at his feet and acknowledge his superior virtue. At best he has merely legitimatized a shameful intrigue and by so doing has removed the guilt of his rela- tions with the woman, but has not wiped away the stain of his conduct in the past. Besides to endeavor to realize immediate political and social benefit from his action | would indicate that he took it from the purely selfish motive of regaining his lost position, and not from a sincere desire to atone for his wrong and offer fruit meet for repentance. A little modesty would bea beautiful thing just now in the ex-Irish leader. _ = Ix order that Parisians may not suffer for bread during the strike of the bakers, the French military authorities have ar- ranged to supply the master bakers with men todo the necessary work.

To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: Please call the attention of the Mound City Co. to the fact that their conductors are very remiss about checking up to let passengers (especially gentlemen) off at the corner of Fifteenth street and St. Louls avenue.

Would you please oblige as by giving us informa- tion inthe correspondent column as to where we can obtain flirtation books? A DAILY READER. There area number of publications on the subject mentioned, but none can be recom- mended. Object lessons and the advice of ladies of experience in this art are of far more value than anything that can be learned by the most exhaustive literary researches. There are a number of past mistresses in St. Louis, but for obvious reasons their names cannot be given; all, however, agree that it is best torely upon what is Known as femi- nine intuition and the light of nature rather than on the experience of others. Flir tation isnotan exact science, but rather resem- bles partisan warfare, in which the tactics adopted are suited to the particular occa- sion. No woman with flirtatious possibili- ties and inclinations was ever prevented from excelling by lack of knowledge of the proper tactics to be pursued. The only in- dispensable qualities are a fair share of beauty, a cool head and a heart of similar temperature. Could you tell me through the Post-DisratTcu if there is anything I could use to give my air a lighter color, asitis black, or anything to thin it out. R. P. E. There area great variety of preparations that are used for changing the color of the hair, which can be obtained at any drug- gist’s. The resulting improvement in the appearance is a matter of taste, the genera) impression being that the best of them are abominable. Some can de used to obtain both the results you desire to attain, as they will remove the hair in patches, causing the user to present a mangy appearance re- garded as bighly unornamental by all ex- cept those who consider dyed hair beautiful. After a man asking for a Grink in a saloon and the bar-keeper gives it to him, and then unable to pay for same for the want of funds, the bar-keeper refers him to the 241 of the place, who says he does not give credit but is willing to advance him some money on his note. The party who bought the drink gives his note to the proprietor for the money loaned — then pays the bar-keeper for the drink which he ad, Now, what we want to know is this: Can this note be collected by law? DISPUTE. A note given under the circumstances named is coliectible. It was given in ex- change for money, and not for drinks, at a dar. Those addicted to impe- cunious bibulosity should, however, not rely too strongly on being able to settle their indebtedness in this manner. You encountered an unusually good-natured and trustful bar-keeper. Others would be likely to meet one who would endeavor to coliect the amount of their bill with a bung- starter. Can you tell me where the snakes went that were expelled from Ireiand by St. Patrick? ERIN. This is a point on which there are no histor- ical records of any reliability, in fact some are inclined to doubt whether the expulsion in question ever took place. The general be- lief is that the snakes were driven into the sea. The story that they took refuge in the boots of the inhabitants, where they have remained, with occasional reappearances ever since, lacks confirmation, and is ren- dered improbable by the fact that during the St. Patrick era boots were not fashionable, bare feet having decidedly the Vall.

Republicans Who Feel the Burden of the McKinley Iniquity—Kansas City Fight- ing Over the Location of the Federal Building—Affairs of the Departments— Washington News. . WASHINGTON, D. C., June 27.—One of the ends to which the Administration is bending its energies just now is to secure the removal of the embargoon American pork imported by Germany and France in time to influence the fail elections. The question is one of great interest to the farmers everywhere, but particularly in the West where the invest- ments are on solargea scale. There have been no recent reports on the subject either from Minister Phelps or from Minister Reid, but both of these officials are hard at work at their posts under express instructions to press matters as rapidly as possible. Senator Paddock of Nebraska, who is here on business, has called attention to the value at this time of scoring a point on pork. He one of those Republican leaders who see hard times ahead forthe party unless some- thing can be done to quiet the unrest ex- hibited in the agricultural States. He stood with Senator Plumb in opposition tothe Me- Kinley bill and, like the Kansas Senator, he foresaw the storm that burst in November last. He is, therefore, still in an Uneasy frame of mind concerning the party’s pros- pects in the West. He was a visitor at the Agricultural Depart- ment to-day and had a long conference with Secretary Rusk. Doubtless he pointed out to Uncle Jerry just how important the Amer- ican hog has become, and he was told in re- turn that unofficial advices from abroad indi- cated that the cause of the hog was at last about to triumph, KANSAS CITY IN TROUBLE. THE QUARREL OVER THE PROPOSED FEDERAL BUILDING SITB. WASHINGTON, D. O., June 27.—The citizens of Kansas City who are public spirited and the land-grabbers of that once flourishing place are at loggerheads, fighting tor and against the site agreed upon by the Govern- ment for a new Federal building. To secure the appropriation by Congress required the untiring zeal of Senators Vest and Cockrell and Congressman Tarsney, in the first place, for a period of months, and, now that it is secured, the present row is likely to delay matters for another year. lo-day a delegation of real estate men com- posed of Messrs. Allen, Hubbard, Corrigan Coates, Thatcher and others called upon Sec- retary Foster and made earnest individual protests against the site selected by the Gov- ernment between Grandand McGee avenues and Ninth and Tenth streets, urging that it was outof the way and that the required grading would interfere with the legal rights of citizens. Against the gentle- men who have a big chunk of real estate to dispose, a petition signed by several hundred Kansas City businéss men was pre- sented. The Secretary promised to con- sider the protests oi the visiting statesmen, and they took the s o’clock train for their respective homes. For the information of all concerned the Posr-Disrarok is authoritatively informed that the Government has decided to pur- chase the site selected if the title is good and the owners are willing to accept their offer. So the matter will end. Messrs. Oorri- gan and Coates of Kansas Oity stopped here last evening upon the same business. PERSONAL AND POLITIOAL. MEMBERS OF THE NEXT CONGRESS DISCUSS THE OUTLOOK. WASHINGTOR, D. O., June 277.—OCongressman B, W. Perkins of Kansas is in the city upon private business, Mr. Perkins was a most peculiar mah while here in Congress and his friends look forward to his occupying an im- portant judgeship in the near future. „„This is the first time I have been Hast for more than ten years, said Col. Holbrook, a new member of Congress from Texas, ‘‘and I feel like a stampeded mustang on the open prairie to get about the old familiar scenes again. No, I have no attention to give political matters, and I haven't been keeping cloee watch of the tide in Texas; of course the Farmers’ Alliance and the third party movement have a strong following out there. Texas comes pretty near being the birth- place of these concerns. I have been looking after the sheep on my ranches more than the old wire-puiling war horses and I hardly know whom the State favors for pres- idential nominee in either party, but I haven’t been so much of a recluse as to make me unable to tell that Texas will give about the usual Democratic majority in 1892 to whatever man heads the ticket of the party just at present out of power.

The Indian Bureau is awaiting a report the Commissioner points except one, and that was the charge of immoral conduct upon the reservation. The matter has time and time again been gone over by Finlay and disproved. What success Capt. Penny will have in this in- stance is not known.

The Oanadian Government having com- plied with the requirements of Secretary Kusk’s order imposing fifteen days’ quaran- tine on all sheep and swine entering this country from Canada by itself establish- ing a similar quarantine on all sheep and swine imported into the Dominion from Great Britain or the Continent of Europe , the Secretary has revoked his order as affect- ing Canadian sheep and swine. Sheep and swine may, therefore, be imported into the United States from Canada, subject only to the regular inspection of our veterinary officers and to a certificate from the proper quarantine officer in Canada in the case of imported animals, showing them to have been duly quarantined there.

Predictions That There Will Be a Sharp Fall in Stocks, The local brokers are inclined to take rather a bearish view of the stock market, especially since the bank statement ol yesterday, and the decline in stocks that took place. The constant shipments of gold to Europe have greatly re. duced the bank reserves, there has been an unusually heavy demand from the farming regions for money to move the crops, and as a consequence the money market is tight, and will probably be tighter. The New York banks are retiring their call loans, and to meet the drain borrowers are obliged to sell stocks in large blocks. This was the cause of yesterday’s decline, and similar conditions dre considered likely to prevail untilthe money to pay for foreign shipments is received.

CHEAP EXCURSION TRIPS BY BOTH RIVER AND RAIL. — ee Bound-Trip Tickets at Reduced Rates and With Special Privileges—A Few of the The “local railroad and steamboat agents are about the busiest people in St. Louis at present, and it all comes from the custom that has grown up among St. Louisans—big and little, rich and poor, male and female— of taking an outing during the heated term. Nearly everyone wants to get away from the city, if only for a day or two; not because it is any warmer dere than elsewhere, or because it is less healthy here, but simply because a person gets tired of staying in ane place and Going the same work all the time. A change is needed, a little rest and recreation, something new, a little va- Fiation—new scenes, new scenery, new faces,a new lite, The transportation companies understand this feeling and want of the public and they are doing all that can reasonably be expected of themto assist the people in getting away from St. Louis. Spe- Cialexcursion rates have been made to a thousand and one different summer resorts and tons of reading matter descriptive of the many places ot interest along the different routes have been and are still being printed and given away. Many of the books and pamphbiets are handsomely illustrated and as complete and reliable as regards the informa- tion furnished as a Murray or a Baedeker guide book. UP THE ILLINOIS RIVER. One of the prettiest and cheapest of the short trips that can be made from St. Louis is that offered by the St. Louis, Naples & Peoria Packet Co. The steamer D. H. Pike lea ves the foot of Olive street every Wednesday and every Saturday afternoon at 1 o’clock for Peoria, Ul., which is 240 miles above st. Louis on the Illinois River. The summer excursion rate for the round trip is only $7, and that pays for meals and stateroom. On the Saturday trip the boat les at Peoria nearly all day the follow- ing Monday, from early morning until 4 o’clock in the afternoon, thus enabling the passenger tosee Peoriato good advantage. This is the largest city of Ulinois, Chicago alone excepted, and is one of the prettiest Cities in the country. Quite a stop is aiso made at Pekin, Beardstown, Naples, Harden, Griggsville and Grafton on the Lilinois River, and at Alton on the Mississippi. The boat passes through two locks going and return- ing, one near Naples and the other thirty miles this side of Peoria. Capt. James Abrams is the master of the vessel, and one of the pilots is his brother, the other being Mr. McBride, an old St. Louts river man. These gentiemen try to make things generally pleasant for the pas- sengers, as do, in fact, nearly all the other officers of the boat. Capt. Hunter Ben Jen- kins, the local agent of the company, says that the excursion trade has been steadily growing ever sin ce the season opened. ON THE TENNESSEE RIVER. The St. Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co. has decided to compete for the summer excursion business and will make a reduction on allof its round trip tickets on and after July 1, (mext Wednesday.) The round trip fare to Florence, Ala, on the Tennessee River, 550 miles by boat from st. Louis, will be only $12, and that inciudes meals and state room, The company will carry passengers to Paducah, Ky., and back for $ and to Louls- ville for $8, connection being made at Padu- cah with the Ohio River boats for Louisville. The scenery on the Tennessee River is for the most part very fine and the boat accommoda- tions are first-class. The company’s new boat City of Paducah will make its maiden trip this week, leaving the company’s wharf boat at the foot of Locust street next Wednesday afternoon at 5o’clock. The vessel is entirely new and the furnishings were bought nere in St. Louis only last week. There is now plenty of water in the Tennesssee River and the boat will go all the way to Florence and Dack, making the round trip ip nine days. When the watea is low the boats of the company stop at Waterloo, thirty miles this side of Florence. The company now has three steamers, and a boat will leave St. Louis every Wednesday and also every Saturday during the excursion season. These steamers make connection at Paducah with the Cum- berland River boats, and stop atall the im- portant towns on the Ohio between Paducah and Cairo and at St. Genevieve, Chester, Ft. Chartres, Kaskaskia, Perryville, Grand Tower, Cape Girardeau and other towns on the Mississippi. On the Tennessee River landings are made at a number of pretty places in the States of Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama and fishing is said to be excellent all along the river. ON THE MISSOUBI AMD OSAGE RIVERS. ning between st. Louis & New Orleans and has reduced its excursion rate to $36 for the round trip, which includes meals and state- room on the river. A boat leaves St. Louis every Wednesday afternoon and New every Saturday afternoon, 5 o’clock, from the wharfboat at the foot of Chestnut Street,and the round trip is made in two weeks, three days being spent at New Or- leans. To Natchez the round trip fare is now only $30; to Vicksburg, $25; Helena, Ark., $18, and to Cairo, $8. The Cherokee Packet Co. ’s steamer makes the trip to Memphis, Tenn.. once a week, leaving St. Louis every at 5 p. m., the of Mexico has been reduced to excursionists to $77, which is about one-third tne round fare charged five years ago. The table land of Mexico has about the same climate all the to El Pago, Laredo or Eagle Pass by one line and return by another for the same fare, rate to St. Paul fare with berthand meals ways being | $12. A still further reduction is made to club parties. The round trip is made in six days, and the boat stops at Cairo, Commerce, Cape Girardeau, Grand Tower, Chester, St. Gene- vieve and other points. The round-trip fare on this boat to Catro 186 866. No round - trip tickets are sold to other points. Excursion rates to all points between st. Louis to Commerce, Mo., may, however, be had onthe steamer Idlewild, which leaves here on Monday and Friday afternoons at 8 o’clock, Commerce is a few miles below — 4 3 and the round - trip fare is The Anchor Line also runs a boat, the steamer Crystal, to Grand Tower, Hl., and three boats to Natchez, Miss. The Grand Tower boat leaves St. Louis every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday afternoon at 4 o’clock, the round-trip fare being $5, with meals, and $2.25 without them. Single meals on the boat are 50 cents each. THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI. Thousands of St. Louisans go to St. Paul by boat every summer, and most of them make the round-trip on the steamer. Before the Diamond Jo Line bought out the Northern Line competition reduced the round-trip fare to $24, but this summer it is $28, with the choice, however, of making the trip one way by rail instead of by water. It takes about ten days to make the round-trip by boat; bat if the return is made by train the visit can very nicely be made within a week and give the excursionist adayinwhich to see St. Paul and Minneapolis. If he choses, he may remain up there a week or several weeks and return on the sameticket. Three steamers leave St. Louis every week—Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays—and Mr. Ike Lusk will be happy to give all the informa- tion desired concerning rates and ac- commodations. The cities of Keokuk, Burlington, Davenport end Dubuque in Iowa are all worth seeing, as are algo Quincy, Rock Island, Moline and Galena on the Illinois side, while the river itself is noted for its scenery above Rock Island. ON THE LAKES. A trip on Lake Michigan can be made on round trip tickets sold by the Chicago & Alton and other railroads, arrangements to that end having been made with the Goodrich and other steamship companies, and round-trip tickets are also sold to Duluth, Marquette, Bayfield, Ashland and other points on Lake Superior, and to a number of summer resorts on the other dig lakes. The trip from St. Louis to Dulath, Minn., by rail, then by boat to Chicago and then by rail to St. Louis, or vice versa, canbe made in ten days, giving the excursionist a day’s stop at Minneapolis and St. Paul and several hours’stop at every large city en route on the lakes, including the City of Macinac, Milwau- kee and Chicago. The round trip fare to Duluth by rail going and coming is $36.60 and about half as much more would be the charge ifthe return were made by boat to Chicago, the passenger getting his meals and berth without extra pay. Another ten days’ trip often taken by St. Louisians isto go to Cleveland by rail and then take a boat to Buffaloand Niagara Falls and then return via Chicago, making the trip from Buffalo to Chicago by boat. The expense is about the same on either trip. Shorter trips are confined to points on Lake Michigan. The round trip fare to Macinac partly by rail and partly by steamer is $29.50. Macinac can be reached by rail over the Chicago & Alton and Michigan Central roads in twenty-three hours, but the all- ran round trip rate is $31.%. To Petosky, an- Other point visited by hundreds of St, Louisans every summer, the round-trip fare from St. Louis is $27.6 all rail, and $27.15, part rail and part water. Petosky is about forty hours’ ride by boat from Chicago, and Mact- nac is about two days’ ride. The round-trip fare from St. Louis to Milwaukee by all rail is $18.60, and by rail excepting between Mu- waukee and Chicago, is only $16; to Sheboy- gan, on the west coast of Lake Michigan, the all-rall fare is u, and the rail-boat fare 30 cents less. The boat makes the run between Mibvrau- kee and Chicago in seven or eight hours, and the trip across the lake from Milwaukee to Grand Haven, Mich., a distance of eighty-five miles, is made in five hours. There are night boats and day boats on both routes, and the return to Chicago may be made direct if de- strable, from Grand Haven. The round trip from Chicago to Milwaukee is $3.50, and Grand Haven, 8, including meals and state room. In crossing the lake from Milwaukee to Grand Haven, or from Chicago to Grand Haven, the excursionist is out of sight of land for some time, and to the land lubber’’ this is always an interesting experience. Travel- ing is cheap anywhere on Lake Michigan, and St. Louigans can be found at this season of the year at Petosky, Harbor Springs, Charlevoix, Traverse City, Manistee, Maci- nac, Manitowoc, Green Bay, Sturgeon Bay, Sheboygan and other popular summer re- sorts on Lake Michigan. The round trip fare Manitowoc, $22.20; Madison, Wis. , $20.50; Lake meva, $17.75; Gogebic Lake, Mich., $31.50; Detroit, $20.80; Montreal, Canada, $40 (with boat ride on the st. Lawrence); Burlington, ‘Vt., $8; Portland, Me., $6; Old Point Com- „ Va., $87.6; Natural Ridge, $31.%; White Sulphur Springs, $27.66; Hot Springs, N. O., $29.10; Black Mountain, $31.95; Asheville, N.

Va., $38.40; Deer Park, Md., $27.40; Du luth, Minn., with trip from Macinac to Du- luth and back by boat, and balance of trip by rail on Michigan Central and Big Four Line, $57.40, which includes meals and berth on the lake. gur that the star is on every pail of lard you buy.

San Francisco, Cal., June 27.—Thousands of colored men from the Southern States are soon to settle in Lower California. Officers of the American Colored Men’s Mexican Colonization Co. report that the papers were signed on Thursday for the first 100,000 acres ot land by Andrade of San Francisco, the patent of the tract beginning on the Sonora side of the Gulf of California, some twenty miles below Yuma. The papers were also signed for a section of 100,000 acres adjoining to be pur- chased a year from now onthe same liberal terms. The attorney for the company was given sixty days in which to make an invest!- gation of the title at the City of Mexico, and if this is satisfactory the work of colonizing will at once begin. There were about sixty colored men at the meeting recently and the Eastern delegates said that the people of their race in both Mississippi and Tennessee were most anxious for the hegira.

Many Doctors Fail. Cured by the Cuticura Remedies. I have a sister troubled with blood or skin disease. It commenced when about one year old. We would try one doctor and then another, and it seemed like they were glad to get rid of it. When they would commence they would say it is easy dried up and cured. But at last they would say it could not be ' cured, It ran on about two years. We had tried all the doctors sround and they had failed. I saw your | advertisement in the paper and wrote you for direc- tons and you sent me a copy of your book at once. We then got CUTICURA REMEDIES and used it. It Gried ap the sores and healed them up rie t away. Her face, head and parts of her body were a solid scab. The way it would commence it would raise a small lamp ander the skin, then became a smal! pim- ple and itched so that she got no rest night or day, and she would serateh them, and yellow matter would come out of them and they would keek spread- ing and itching. Iam sure from what I know of the OCUTICURA REMEDIES they are the best medicines for scrofala or biood or skin diseases that anyone can use. GEORGE G. GARTON, High Point, Decatar County, Iowa.

COLUMBUS WAS BEATEN BY THE BROWNS’ HEAVY BATTERS. Details of an Interesting Game—Balti- more Takes a Game From Boston— Anson’s Colts Outplayed by the Pirates Scores of Yesterday’s Games—Base Ball Notes. The Browns took the lead in the Association race yesterday afternoon by winning from Columbus a game which was rather dull be- cause of the scant attendance and the lazy playing of the Columbusnine. Gastright was billed to pitch for Columbus, but when the bell rang Dolan was in his place. For the Browns McGill, and Griffith divided the work from the center of the diamond. The Browns followed the custom they have of late been following and piled up five runs inthe first inning. This took most of the sap out of the Columbus team, although they did knock out a run now and then by hard, but slow work. The Browns took things easy again after the first innings, and to make things sure made five runs inthe seventh. After the seventh the game was played out simply because it was necessary to play the last twoinnings. The only surprise in the game wasa homerun by Griffith, who hit a low ball down the right field line which bounced over the fence and cleared the bases. ; THE GAME.

THE CLUB I6 A GOOD ONE BUT DOESN'T PAY EXPENSES. OmanHA, Neb., June F.— Omaha dase ball magnates are becoming discouraged and it looks now as though the penrant holders would pass into other hands. ‘‘Uncle Dick“ McCormick returned this morning from St. Paul, where he was called by a syndicate to talk overthe proposed gale of the Omaha Base ball Club. James A. Abern, Clerk ofthe Municipal Courtand Managing Editor Cowles of the Pioneer Press are the men at the head of the syndicate. The‘Omahas are valued at $16,500 and it is stated that the Sioux City people made the St. Paul people an offer of their club for %,- 000. Now that the Apostles have made known their desire to buy aclub, they have over- tures from nearly every city in the League. Denver is also anxious to sell. I will not know for certain for a day or two whether the club will de sold, said Mr. McCormick. The sale means the transfer of the franchise and everything connected with the team. I bought the club originally be- cause I was interested in Omaha and base ball, and 1 knew it was the best advertisement that could be had for the town. I would not mind losing a lit- tle money but I do mind losing a large amount every month. The Omahas have put up ball every time they have played on the home grounds away from home, with but one or two ex- ceptions, but the games have not been pat- ronized. The people of Omaha delighr to tell about the game, but they donot patronize it at all. The company in other part of the expense, paying for the grounds. but the Omaha Co. positively refuses to give a cent, though the travel to the grounds must amount to consider- able. The St. Paul and Minne- apolis company have built grounds midway between the two cities. I will give the Omaha capitalists a chance to purchase the team before I do anything with the St. Paul people. Mr. McCormick owns seventy-five out of the 117 shares of the club. The monthly ex- penses are over $3,000 and as the receipts are low, Mr. McCormick is losing money. BASE BALL GALLERY. Roy E.

Nearly $30,000 Raised for the Big Fund Last Week. THE TOTAL SUBSCRIPTIONS ALMOST HALF A MILLION DOLLARS. Encouraging Reports From Every Direo- tion—The Commercial Travelers Com- ing Nobly to the Front—The House-to- House Oanvassers Also Report Very Favorably. 9 The work of raising the desired fund for the autumnal festivities is progressing very satis- factorily, nearly every committee that has been heard from having reported a good sub- scription list, and the assurance of still more subscriptions to come. The total subscrip- tions reported last week amount to about $30,000, but some of them were not reported in time to go on the official list given below. The retail liquor dealers’ subscriptions not yet reported amount to $8,000 and the sum will probably be increased to 312,000 or $15,- 000. The Merchants’ Exchange Committee Is expected to report about $15,000 this week, and Mr. W. F. Hammer reports that the tailors wil be second to none on the list. The house-to-house canvassers have also been turning in good reports, and take it all- in-allthe prospectis fine for the raising of the full amount desired, $1,000,000. Indeed, about half thatsum has already been sub- scribed and not half the committees have made their first report yet, while very few of them have submitted their final report. SADDLERY COMPANIES.

The St. Louis Medical Society had a regular meeting last night at the Polytechnic build- ing. In spite of the heat the attendance was good. There were up before the society for election the names of Drs. E. H. Trielings- dort, M. H. Schelly, D. F. Hochdaerfer, E. Y. Meyer, F. D. Wright and 2. B. Taylor. Those names had deen referred to the Committee on Elections some time ago, butas the committees did not re- port last night Dr. Y. H. Bond moved that the rules be suspended and the applicants elected without a report from the commit- toe. The motion of Dr. Bond was carried and all of the applicants were duly elected members of the soctety. Dr. Hurt moved that when the society ad- journ it adjourn until the third Tuesday in September. The motion was adopted. Dr. Wiesenbach reported a very interesting case with microscopic specimens. Dr. Prewitt asked permission to present to the society a case of a little boy who came to him some time ago with great difficulty in his breathing. He operated on him andin- serted a silver tube into the boy’s neck and through the wind-pipe. The child appeared before the society with the tube in his throat, which had been there for about four weeks. The child was breath- ing easily, and suffered no discomfort what- ever from the operation. Another case of longer standing which h ad achieved as good, though not such remarkable results, was pre- sented in the person ofa healthy young col- ored boy of about 28 or 26 yeurs ot age. Dr. Frank J. Lutz presented a specimen of tumor which he had operated upon, and gave the history of the patient from which the speci- men was taken. Dr. Prewitt presented several interesting specimens of sarcoma of the axilla. Dr. Prewitt also presented a case of strangula- tion of the bowels which was accompanied with more than usual complications. Dr. 4. V. L. Brokaw submitted the history ofover a dozen operations of laparotomy which he had performed within a short time. These operations were for abcesses of the abdominal regions and in nearly every case were successful. Thecases related by Dr. Brokaw covered a variety of complica- tions in the somewhat modern operation of cutting into the abdomen to remove trou- bles which were, upto avery recent day, looked upon as incurable and necessarily fatal. Dr. Barclay related the operation recently performed by him of closing up the ruptures in a bursted ear drum which had been broken by the blow ofa slap. Dr. Barclay had far- nished the ear with a temporary drum of fine paper, which acted as an almost perfect sub- stitute until the natural drum had healed. Dr. Dalton presented a patient whose brain had been injured by the blow of a pick-ax. The front of his head had grown and pro truded until it had assumed an enormous size. Various theories were ventured as to what the real trouble was, and the case ex- cited a great deal of interest. The society then adjourned for the summer.

Joseph Macari Arrested for Attempted Criminal Assault. Joseph B. Macari, an Italian banana ped- dler, is confined behind the bars of the Car- ondelet Police station for attempting to criminally assauit Annie Hanson, a sweet little child, who has just turned s years of age. Willie Schueller, a little boy who is about 7 years of age, also accusés the man ofa revolting crime. Macari was arrested shortly after 5 o’clock by Officer O’Brien. O’Brien happened to pass by an old stable in the rear of 712 Pennsylvania avenue and saw quite a number of women and children congregated in the alley. The women informed O’Brien what the Italian attempted to do. Search was at once begun, and within a few minutes the fellow was located on Michigan avenue, near Nagel avenue. Without any ceremony O’Brien grabbed the Ita by the collar and marched him t the Police Station. At the office Macari pretended not to know a word of English. Heisa big, muscular fel- low about 50 years of age. Police Captain Sam Boyd tried his utmost to get the fellow to speak English, but his efforts were fruitless. Little Annie Hanson was brought over to the police station, where she told the Captain thatthe man offered hera few bananas if she would come into the stable. Innocent of what the brute intended the child walked intothe barn. Had it not been for Willie Schueller and Christian Hanson, the little girl’s brother, he might have accomplished his purpose. When the boys arrived he offered them bananas. The children’s parents saw them go into the stable, and through mere curi- osity sake followed them. When Macari saw them he took to flight. Had he not had his cart with him he would have easily gotten away from the authorities. Macari evidently had been drinking, or at least he pretended to be under the influence of drink. Charles Olcott, the young man who came near ending his life Friday afternoon by tak- ing a quantity of morphine, is rapidly im- proving. Dr. Volker, who is attending the young fellow, is confident that he is out of danger. Olcott’s cousin, Mrs. Evans, still denies the story that her cousin took the opiate purposely. Olcott refuses at present to see anyone. » Amamoth chemical manufactory vm be erected on Krauss street, east of the Missouri Pacific Railway tracks, which promises to ex- cel any manufactory of its kind in the two Frenchmen. leased 800 feet structure, which is to cost $6,000, early Mon- day morning.

A REPORTER’S EXPERIENCE AS AN UM- PIRE IN AN AMATEUR GAME. He Officiates at the Request of Both Nines and Gomes Near Being Mobbed Before the Game Is Over—A Typical Boys’ Game. A Post-Dispatch reporter was walking across a common not far from Twentieth street and Cass avenue, last Sunday, when a couple of boys rushed up to him and in the same breath exclaimed: gay Mister, will yer umpire a game 0’ ball fer us?’ * They were boys whose ages ranged from 13 to 15 years, and when the reporter informed them that he had no ambition to officiate in the position and that they had better secure the services of somebody else, one of the lads spoke up and said: „We can’t agree on anybody else. Dese udder fellows wants one o’ der crowd an’ we won't have it. „No, its dem fellers wat wants one o' der gang to umpire.’’ By this time several other boys approached and solicited the reporter to umpire. Fou don’t know any o’us, so yes won't given one o’us the worst o’itan’dat’s why we would like ter have you umpire,’’ argued one ofthe party, while the others chimed in with remarks of approval. That settled the matter. THE REPORTER FOR UMPIRE. The reporter in an evil moment accepted the position. In additionto the important duty of deciding all points arising in the game the reporter was appotnted to an once of trust; he was made stakeholder, The con- test was for astake of 70 cents—35 cents a side. It was to have been for a stake of 4 cents a side, but owing to the failure of two of the players of one club to raise the neces- sary 5 cents ante, their side was shy 10 cents, so that the amount of the stake had to be re- duced. The reporter never had any previous experience in umpiringa game of base ball. and would have hesitated about attempting the task for professional teams, but had no doubt about his ability to give satisfaction in a boys’ game. Since Sunday, however, his opinions have undergone a change. After the boys had tossed up and one team had team had taken the fleld, the first man to step to the plate sent a hot grounder past the short stop. Run, Jimmy, dat’s a dandy!’’ yelled the captain of the team at the bat. Jimmy did run and easily reached first amid the shouts ot the members of his club and their sym- pathizers. „Oh, mabbe we won't kill dat pitcher to- day !’’ remarked one of Jimmy's fellow club members as he picked up a dat and after touching it to the ground twice, as if to test it, took his position at the plate. „Say, Wulle McGill, Just give me one here, will you?’’ he said addressing the pitcher and holding his bat extended from the height of his waist. Get on ter de ten-tousand dollar beauty at de dat, retorted de pitcher. The beauty gota ball a little lower than where he indicated and knocked it into the air. When it came down it was in the sec ond baseman’s hands and the annihilator of pitchers crossed his legs like a tailor, and sat down in the field with the other players of his club, amusing himself by biting a piece of grass, while the pitcher shouted: ‘‘Oh, ain’t he a dandy ; now ain't he a swell.’’ When the reporter in his official capacity as umpire called the batter out, there was not amurmurof disapproval from either side. This fact is mentioned because it was the only decision rendered which did not cause a Kick. THE FIRST KICK. Then the runner on first attempted to steal second andthe catcher tried tocatch him, but the reporter decided the runner safe. In three seconds, the short stop, who had been handed the ball, was holding the runner at second while the second baseman, the cap- tain from right field, the catcher, the pitcher and first baseman were all gathered about the um pire register- ing a kick. The entire opposing team, the base runner alone excepted, also took a hand inthe debate and warmly ap- proved of the decision. In the meantime the base runner and shortstop were arguing the matter between themselves at second. After a few minutes play was resumed. The next ball pitched went wideand was called a ball. Say, wot 's de matter wid you; dat ball split the plate, said the rising Jack Stiv- etts. He pitched another ball, and again the umpire called a ball on him. Say, don’t give us no show at ant“ yelled Dat ball didn’t come nowhere near de plate. Then the batsman hit a hard grounder to third, and the player who was guarding that bag made a pretty pick up ofit and retired the runneratfirst. . *‘Dere’s de tird baseman fur ye, and Denny Lyons ain’t in it wid him.“ gleefully cried the shortstop. g The runner claimed the first baseman did not have his foot on base, Dut his kick was a mild one, so mild, in fact, that it seemed like praise when compared with those that fol- lowed it. “4 | KICKED. EVERYBODY The runner on second had been held there, but on the next ball pitched attempted to steal third. He appeared tohave reached the bag safely, but when the umpire so de- cided the third baseman yelled: ‘‘Say, you are a robber. Why he has not got his hand on the base yet.. The runner’s hand was found to be on the base, but the baseman insisted that he had just slipped it there. The whole nine players were about the umpire in an instant and de- manding that the man be given out or they would not play. Pat stiff don’t Know nutten about um- piring,’’ yelled one. „Don't let him rob you, Jimmy,“ cried another. „gay, you're being paid to give dem de game,’’ asserted still another, as he thrust his clenched fist in close proximity to the umpire’s face. ‘*Swipe him, Id,“ one of the sympathizers of the kicking players. De decision is right and de umpire can’t reverse his decision, anyway,’’ the members of the opposing team kept asserting. The man was safe and I cannot and will not reverse my decision.“ the reporter re- marked. Inan instant he was surrounded by the whole team and each member held in his hand a bat and demanded a reversal of the decision, while their sympathizers kept afla me their fre by crying out such advice as ‘*Slug him, Billy!’’ Don't let dat gang rob you;’’ Why don’t you swipe bim wid de bat;’’ Punch de stiff in de nose; he’s bein’ paid for dig;’’.**Give it ter der duffer;’’ Jou re a chump ef yer stands dat, etc. SAVED BY THE POLICE. The small boy is not a very formidable person to deal with, but nine small boys with nine large bats possess wonderful persuasive eloquence and can convert an umpire to most any belief. The effect of their argumentative power on the umpire was remarkable. In an instant he had reversed his decision and declared the runner out at third. No sooner was this decision made, however than, the entire opposing team with all their Dats and sympathizers were gathered about the umpire crying robber, ‘‘thief,’’ ‘‘cur’’ and other euphonius names at him and demanded his blood. While he was endeavor- ing to determine which base ball nine he would select to beat on his head with batsa policeman hove in sight. Never was a blue coat so welcome. The officer stopped both the outbreak and the base ball game. The reporter returned the teams their money and last Monday went before a notary public and took a solemn oath never to again umpire a boys’ game of base ball. Low Railroad Rates to the West.

UNDER ARREST Two American Express Co. Employes in the Hands of the Police, — CHAS. r. BIGELOW ARRESTED IN CHICAGO AND NORMAN PERRY TAKEN HERE. Bvidence of a Conspiracy in the Express Company’s Office—Bigelow on His Way Cable Accident—Other Police News. Charles F. Bigelow, assistant cashier of the American Express Co. of this city, was ar. rested in Chicago yesterday charged with =embezgliement; and Norman Perry of 1907 Bacon street, chief clerk of the Money Order Department of the same company, languishes in a cell at the Four Courts, charged with complicity in the em- bezzlement. From all the facts given by Local Manager Rood and others, it would appear that a conspiracy to rob the American Express Co. has been nipped in the bud. Bigelow will arrive in this city this morning in charge of a Chicago officer and will be served with & warrant charging him with embeszling $ Mr. Rood se- cured the warrant yesterday afternoon and atthe time Detectives Danaher and Schoppe arrested Perry at his desk in the express company’s office on Fourth and Pine streets. He was locked up and orders were issued to allow no one to interview him. No defined charge was placed against Perry except the broad charge of complicity, The wires be- tween the American Express Co.’s office here and the Chicago branch, after Bigelow’s arrest there yesterday, were kept busy all afternoon and the arrest of Perry is supposed to be the result of a ‘‘squeal’’ on the part of Bigelow. Man- ager Rood ignored the St. Louis police in ferreting out the case, and has Kept all facts and figures to himself while making the in- vestigation, Bigelow has been in the employ of the American Express Co, nine years and by ex- cellent service worked his way to the prom- inent and high-salaried position of assistant Cashier. He bore an excellent reputation. Last Saturday night he left his desk. He did not return Monday, but as he complained ofiliness his absence did not arouse sus pl - cion. When it was learned last Tuesday that he had gone to Chicago without leave or notice, and Mr. Rood thought it best to lood into his accounts, and did so Wednes- day. Friday Bigelow was located in Chi- cago and arrested yesterday. A warrant has been issued charging him with embezziing 381,300, and he wiil be placed in jaſſto- day on that charge unless he giues bond. Bigelow secured all money or- ders and cash from Perry, who was at the head of the Money Order Department under the cashier. It is this fact that gives rise to the suspicion of conspiracy, as the books of the money order clerk and the assistant cashier should balance. AGENT ROOD SON-COMMUNICATIVE. General Agent Rood was more uncommu- nicative than ever last night. He said the case was being gradually unraveled and that he expected to see the investigation com- pleted inadayortwo, He said further that he would not feel at liberty to discuss the case for some time to come. He Has Disappeared. Another disappearance was reported to the police yesterday by Mrs. Lizzie Bodeman of #1 Talcott avenue. She says her brother, George Grimler, left home last Thursday morning and has not been seen since. Grim- ler is 42 years of age, 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighs 130 pounds and wore a dark suit of clothes. A Verdict of Suicide. An inquest and post-mortem examination was held over the remains of John Wilund, who died of poisoning at his home, 2138 Divi- sion street, early yesterday morning. Mrs. Wund said her husband was 43 years of age, a native of Sweden, and lived in the country sixteen years. He was by trade a carpenter. At 2 o' clock yesterday evening she heard him groaning, and summoneda doctor. He sent for a friend, Lorenzo Swoffard of 1925 Division street, and told him he was about to die and made the strange request that Swafford shave him after he was dead. Wilund suf- fered great agony until 5:30 o’clock in the morning, when he died. Swafford said Wilund was out of work for sometime and was very despondent, as he met him Friday night. when he seemed very moody. Dr. Brennan made the post mortem examina- tion and found large quantities of arsenic in the stomach. A vercict of suicide was ren- dered. Charged With Robbery. Hiram Hunter was arrested by Officer Big- gers yesterday and identified as the man who entered Leopold Lipp’s room at 223 Elm street, June 16, and stole a lot of under- clothes. A suit of underwear belonging to Lipp was found on the prisoner. AN EXCITING TIME. & Free Fight on an Olive Street Car and its Consequences. The passengers on one of the west bound Olive street cable trains last night at 11:30 o’clock were detained about ten minutes by a fight which occurred on the grip car and which ended rather sadly for one of the pro- vokers of it. The car was pretty well crowded when two young fellows sitting near the re ar of the grip became very offensive in their language to all the passengers to two young gentle Inings to-day says: THE STUDENTS’ CONTEST. Entries to Close and Judges to Be An- nounced on Tuesday. The students’ contest will close on Tuesday next, and after that date no more essays can be entered. The interest that is felt in the struggle for supremacy is amply proved by the number that have been received, and uo higher tribute could be paid to the ability of both teachers and pupils than the char- acter of the essays sent in. Of the great number, nearly all are of exceptional excellence, and the judges win their task not only a difficult, but also an agreeable one; dificult because of the num- ber that show deep thought and close study, and agreeable because of the high order of the compositions presented. As might naturally have been expected, the competitors from St. Louis outhumber those from points out- side of this city, but widespread interest is felt in the contest, as is by the num- ber of entries from the remote points, and the city scholars will be put to it, to equal the productions sent from the smaller towns. On Tuesday the names of the judges who wil make the selection will be an ced, and the result will be made public as soonasa decision is arrived at. THE KEYSTONE BANK. Progress of the Investigation—Is Wana- maker Cornered? PHILADELPHIA, June 27.—The Council’s Committee of Investigation to day presented to Judges Allison and Biddle the fact involved in the late refusal of H. H. Tard to answer questions with a petition for a process from the court to compel Mr. Yard to appear and answer. City Solicitor Warwick appeared for the com.- mittee. He first read the petition and the stenographer’s account of the refusal of Mr. Yard. Mayer Sulzberger and A. S. L. Shields, counsel for Mr. Yard, raised the objection that the petition did not give sum cient information of the facts to the court to form the basis of judicial action. Mr. Warwick said that the matter stood just as if Yard was on the witness stand in court and had stood mute. The judges requested Mr. Warwick to read that portion of the act which provided that the testimony given by a witness tn such matters should not be used against him in any crimi- nal prosedution. At the conclusion of the reading of the answer Judge Alm son said: This raises a very fair question whether the committee had any power make its investigation. The court certainly cannot finish the argument now. We will postpone it until 10 o’clock on Mon- kay moining ’’ Care May, June 277.—Postmaster General Wanamaker and Common Councilman Thomas Hicks of the Keystone Bank and Bardsley, treasurer, looting Investi- gation committee, arrived to-night. The appearance of both . gentlemen and the fact that they seem to beso closely allied in the investization of the difficulties incident to the Keystone Bank robbery, coupled with their absence from the public gaze, leads many thinking people here to be- lieve that they Doth came down with the in- tention of meeting each otherand discussing the present difficulties. SOME ASSETS FOURD. PHILADELPHIA, June 28.—City Solicitor War- wick has discovered $30,357 more of the miss- ing city money that Bardsley got away with. This time it was in shape of a due Dill which the clearing house gave Robert Glendenning & Oo., stock brokers, for their check, and which was deposited in the Fourth Street National Bank to Bardsiey’s personal credit. The City Solicitor to-day filed a bill in equity in court asking that Bardsley or the bank be restrained from de- positing the due bill and that the Court make an order to have the due bill delivered to the city. The Oity Solicitor also asked the Court to make an order compelling H. H. Yard, who has been arrested and indicted for complicity with Bardsley, to appear before Counctil’s in- véstigating Committee to answer ques- tions under oath. Yard heretofore refused to do this, by advice of his counsel. His lawyers to-day read a long answer to court in which they denied that the Commis- sioner had any authority to ask anyone questions, and also that he might criminate himself by so answering. The Judge said a fair question had been raised and he would hear argument on it Monday. AMERICAN WOMEN. Queens of Society Circles Who Are Wed- ded to Europe’s Way.

From her father, the late William Garner, of New York, she inherits the blond coloring, the small frm chin, the fair hair, and fall biue eyes, and from her moth er the charm of expression, the vivacity of manner, the fascinating, proud uncon- ventionality and disregard of s0- clety’s narrow canons, when those canons interfere with her judgment on matters of right and wrong, loyalty and disloyalty. By nature she is fearless, honest and affectionate, full of deep feeling, and a staunch friend and life companion any nian might feel proud of having won. She is fond of society in a healthy, wholesome way, yet always ready to relinquish it at the higher call of love, ungrudgingly and unfiinchingiy. She is the favorite of every one, and is dearly loved by her intimate friends.“ MES. MACKAY’S PARTY.

SMITHY, A DEAF MUTE, THROWN DOWN AN EMBANKMENT. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., June 27.—Yesterday morning as the west bound passenger train on the Guif line was approaching Ash Grove the engineer noticed aman walking on the track some distance ahead. He thought nothing of it until the train came near the man, who seemed to pay no attention to its approach. The engine was quicky reversed, it was to late too prevent the accident which followed.

After luncheon there is another walk or ride and then an hour or soof painting or writing. Just at present both Mr. and Mrs. Navarro are busily engaged in furnishing a new home at Tun- bridge Wells. They have taken a lease of a place for seven years and are ransacking all England for antique furniture and pretty fixings. After an early dinner there isa gathering in the little drawing · room, and por - haps some game is played for an hour or so. By 10 oc lock the house is in darkness and the next day the happy couple begin again to ride and walk and visit or receive friends. Occasionally they go to London to see some ne production at the theaters, for Mrs. Navarro has not lost her interest in the stage tothe extentthat she cannot enjoya good piay. Sometimes she comes down to London for dinner, but not often. If she ac- cepted all the invitations she receives she would dine six nightsa week from her own home. Her life just nowisone long restful holiday. Sheis enjoying every moment of it as well she may. Her health is perfect. She is happy in her husband and her bank account is ample.

CLAIR COUNTY’S HARVEST. MASCOUTAH, III., June 27.—The past two weeks has been a busy time for farmers in this section. A great wheat crop has been harvested during that time. The wheat har- vest was practically finished in this section to-day. Threshing will commence the latter part of next week, and will be kept up steadily for several weeks. Farmers rarely over-estimate a wheat crop, and itis the prevailing opinion among them that the av- erage in St. Clair County will not fall below seventy-five bushels of wheat peracre. The growing oat and corn crops are doing well. There is some complaint of oat lice and bugs, but it is not thought that any serious damage will be done to the growing crops by the in- sects. SATISFACTORY WHEAT YIELD. LAWRENCE, Kan., June 27.—In spite of the very heavy rains the farmers of this (Doug- las) county are realizing a yteld of wheat above the average. Wheat harvesting com- menced the first of the present week and will not be finished before the last of next. The rain of last Thursday, the heaviest of the season, came rigut in the midst of harvest, but the farmers estimate that on the uplands the damage was not more than 5 per cent. Bottom land fared worse and in some cases whole fields of crops were destroyed. Six miles west of this city there was a cloud- burst. The corn and potato crops have been damaged a great deal by the extreme wet weather. RAIN DAMAGES CROPS. NEBRASKA City, Neb., June 277.~—Yester- day’s rain was the heaviest ever Known in this county and the damage to smail grain was terrible, whole fields of wheat being washed out and oats knocked down.

Kaiser gave an t of’ mis with congregation and upon the close of the services was surrounded by friends who tendered congratulations. He received many beautiful presents, and his house was besieged during the afternoon and evening. Mr. Kaiser is a well-known contributor to various Jewish journals, Dut is better known throughout the United States as the acknow!l- edged authority on Jewish church music in America. His work ‘‘Zimrath Yah’’ (Songs of God), in four volumes, cont g the music for every festival of the year, is the standard work on the subject in this country.

WATTERSON ON POLITICS. The Kentucky Editor’s Views Con Presidential Possibilltics in 92. Louisville, Ky., June 27.—The Bards- town Record prints an interview with Henry Watterson on the next Demo- cratic nominee for President. He reiterates that Cleveland cannot be nominated unless he can bring a solid delegation in his favor from New York, and adds that at this time that seems very improbable. By implication he says that Hin has no chance, Upon further questioning he says Carlisie is available and all in all the best man for the nomination. He does not see who else will make as strong a candidate throughout the country consider- ing that the fight is to made upon the tariit issue. When asked if Carlisie’s disstpated habits do not unfit him for the candidacy, Wattérson ro- plies ‘‘No,’’ and cites Webster and others, who have reached the highest places in spite of being Occasional Victims intemperate drinking. Asked whether Carlisle did not fall of the United States Supreme Judgeship because of his drinking, he answered yes; but pointed out that a quieter, steadier character has always been demanded of the Supreme Judge than of the President.

A CALLED MEETING OF THE WESTERN PASSENGER ASSOCIATION. The Alton Will Probably Go Them ons Better and Thus Kev the Rate War Raging~The Louisville, Evansville & St. Louis—Railway News. CmO, June 277.—Ata called meeting to- day ot the Western Passenger Association all lines agreed to meet the Alton’s reduced rates of $10 to and from Kansas City and Chicago, and % from Chicago to St. Louls. These reductions will be used as basing rates on all through rates. This will squarely open the war, as the Alton will immediately go $1 lower on each of these rates in order to make up for the trouble its through passengers will have in rebuying tickets. On account of the boycott it only quotes local rates and it must make the $1 reduction on them. Its compefi- tors will méet the reduced local rates, and they in turn will be used as basing rates, and the Alton will again equalize matters by going Silower. The only end in sight isa $i rate between the points named, or the with- drawal of the boycott on the Alton. A new element of discord was the situation to-day by the claim as soon as it finds other lines making it. Reports of further washouts and entirely in new hands.

LEAVENWORTH, Kan., June 27. — Robert Crowell, the molder and railroad man ar- rested in East St. Louis Wednesday by Miss Augusta Seidel of this city for bastardy, will be returned to this city for trial by means of requisition papers. The girl returned to this city yesterday and engaged an attorney to , who formerly liv in are not demonstrative it is believed that they will help to bring Crowell to time. ey will send himto the penitentiary or marry her. Miss Seidel is the cous den disappearance m East spoken of in last Thursday’s Post-DISPATCH. It appears that Crowell had seduced Miss Reidel under a promise of marriage. When her condition could no longer be concealed she tried to exact from him the fulfillment of promise. Crowell proved recreant, however and fied the city. The young woman followed him to East St. Louis, where he had been arrested on information furnished Chief Walsh by the girl’s father. When confronted by her betrayer she wept bitterly and besought him to marry her, as her parentsrefused to re- ceive her until after their marriage. Orowell refused to listento her entreaties and was held by the — for a hearing. In the meanwhile the girl, who was stopping at the Bauman boarding-house near the Re- lay Depot, suddenly disappeared. The terrible excitement under which she labored andthe despondence engendered by Crowell’s brutal indifference were suppo to have rendered her insane. It was believed by all who had come in con- tact with her that she had taken her own life.

MOBERLY, Mo., June 27.—Information has been received here of a very peculiar pro- ceeding which occurred near Renick last night. Along in the dead hour of night a wagon passed through Renick containing two men. The noise of the passing wagon awak- ened a gentleman, who lived a short dis- tance east of Renick. This being something out of the usual order of things, his curiosity was naturally aroused and he made up his mind to follow the vehicle a short distance to see if he could learn any- thing about the matter. When the Alexander graveyard, about one and one-half miles east of Renick, was reached, the wagon halted and two men alighted,went inside the grave- yard, and commenced digginga grave. The party on the lookout did not think his presence, if known, would be agreeable to the midnight R he watched them at a distance for qulte a while and then returned home. The next morning he went to the cemetery and found a new heap in it. It is not in the usual shape, but in a half circle. No report has been made to the authorities in regard to the matter, although it is freely discussed in aud around the town, and various weird and ghastly conjectures are afloat. Your cor - respondent’s informant -said the party who followed the wagon was afraid to notify the officers, thinking, possi- bly, that he might be implicated in the affair. He also stated that the people who are acquainted withthe matter in that vicinity are very decided in urging that the thing be thoroughly ventilated. A party will probably redig the grave to-day and see what it contains, as various ugly rumors are going around, To the Traveling Public.

A NATION TO EMIGRATE. Proposed Scheme to Send Iceland's Entire Population to Alaska. DeTrRoiT, Mich., June 27.—Dr. Ludwig Von Dolcke has a scheme to move the entire popu- lation of Iceland to Alaska, where he will instil into their minds American notions as he understands them, and bring them: into harmony with our institutions and laws. Just before starting for Reykyavik he said tothe Post-DIsPaTCH correspondent: ‘‘I was born in Iceland and am thoroughly acquainted with all the teatures of the people with whom I have to deal, anddo not underestimate in ‘the least the difficulties of the undertaking or its magnitude.

THE TROUBLES OF MORITZ HORN AND HIS WIFE FURNISH A NOVELTY. Neither the Plaintiff Nor Defendant Were Able to Speak English—A Case in Which There Was Some Pathos—-A Divorce Refused—Other Oases—Circuit Court News. The contested divorce case of Morits Horn against his wife, Wilhelmine Horn, was heard in Judge Withrow’s court yesterday after- noon, The Horns were married in Dresden, in the province of Saxony, Germany, Feb. 23, 1878. The couple are of about middle age and have three children living and fourdead. Horn charged his wife with being of a quarrelsome disposition and of finally deserting him. They separated, the petition for divorce alleged, on or about Nov. 1, 1887. The plain- tif’s knowlege of English is very limited and 8. 8. Bass, his wife’s attorney, acted as interpreter. Speaking partly in English and partly in German he related the story of his married life. His wife was a widow with two children when he mar- ried her. He and his wife had frequent quar- rels in Germany, he stated. She struck him and he struck her. Mrs. Horn, who was sit- ting beside her attorney, at this juncture shook her fist. The plaintiff is a baker at 611 Morgan. He at one time owned a bakery at Seventh and Marion streets. Asked who assisted him with the bakery at Marion street, witness replied two girls. Oneof their names was Augusta Schmidt. She was about 25 years old. She was a married woman, but did not live with her husband. Witness was asked about one day his wife called at the bakery and if Mrs. Schmidt did not tell his wife that she owned the bakery. Witness replied that she did, but that it was not true. He had afterwards discharged Mrs. Schmidt. Mrs. Horn was also examined by means of aninterpreter. She could speak no English at all. She stated the reason she refused to live with her husband was because he did not treat her right. When he came home at night if she had tea he would say he did not cere fortea. Ifshe had soup he would say, „Och de soup. If she cooked eggs he would say he did not want eggs. He com- plained of everything she cooked, so she stopped cooking for him. Then he took his shirts to another woman to be made. In re- ferring to the day she went to the bakery and met Mrs. Schmidt, witness stated when she called she was met by Mrs. Schmidt, who asked: **Who are you?’’ placing her hands on her hips, witness imitating the action on the stand. Jam Mrs. Horn, witness replied. **So,’’ said Mrs. Schmidt, and what do you want?“ Witness replied she wanted to see her hus- d When her husband appeared witness asked him if he would not pay her the $2 a week he had been paying her. Her husband said he could not afford to do so. Mrs. Schmidt said if she were he she would not pay her a cent. Mrs. Schmidt then said: ‘‘Moritz, go in and let me attend to her.’’ And he did so. Mrs. Schmidt then told witness that the bakery was hers and that Horn was hired by her. That she gave him $10a week. Mrs. Schmidt then told Horn to have his name taken off the sign and hers put on. Horn was asked by the court why it was that he did not ask for the custody of the children. The oldest is 18 years. Horn re- plied that his wife had them influenced against him. Thechildren were in court, the oldest, a boy, sitting beside his mother, A peculiar feature of the case was that while both admitted that they fought in Germany and struck each other both also testified that they had never rexchanged blows in this country. Neither did they quarrel before others. Persons oc- cupying rooms in the same house had never Enown of their quarreling. Mrs. Horn’s description of their immigra- tion to this country was quite pathetic. Her husband was out of work, and said he thought he could do better inthis country and she consented to his coming. When he sent for her to come she stated he wrote to her and told her to come to him in America, and that in the new country be would begin life over again; for her to forget the past and in crossing over to throw it all in the ocean. They lived happi- ly, she stated, for about six months after she arrived in this country. Witness was asked ifshe would live with her husband now and she replied she would if he would do right. She had the appear- ance of being an honest, straightforward German woman apparently somewhat older than her husband. Her husband’s petition for divorce was refused. OTHER DIVORCES. Judge Withrow granteda divorce to Mrs. Mary J. Belleville yesterday. She isa young woman and stated her husband, John Belleville, is 58 yearsoldand had children when she married him older than herself. These caused her much annoyance, and her husband used to come home intoxicated on Saturday nights and keep her awake by scold- ing. Mrs. Belleville lives at 1822A Olive. Mrs. Emma Hoffman, a handsome blonde, not over 25, stated her marital troubles be * T’S HOT WEATHER SPECIALS FOR THE LADIES.

Crawford in his petition for an injunction stated that although he gave his note for $22 he received but $15. He has since paid, he alleged, $14.50, and offered the remainder due on the loan, counting on the actual amount of money received. Vette refused to receive. this, Crawford alleged, and threatened to sell the furniture which is all the property Crawford states he has. Judge Withrow granted the injunction upon Uraw- ford paying the amount still leagally due, $8.90, into court and giving a bond of $100. Attorney George B. Webster presented the case for Orawford. The action of the Circuit Court in interfering in cases of over- charge in money lending grows out of the decision of the Court of Appeals in which Judge Rombauer, presiding judge, held that it made no matter what forms were used the lender is not entitled to recover more than the actual amount advanced with legal in- terest. Court Notes. J. Soulard La Motte was suspended by the Probate Court yesterday as executor of the estate of Henry G. Soulard and the St. Louis Trust Co. placed in charge of the es- tate pending the hearing of the suit con- testing the will fled recently in the Oircuit Court.

The Union Depot competition is exciting much ill-feeling among architects and may yet cause trouble in the St. Louis chapter of the American Institute, According to the terms of the competition, the architect whose plan is accepted will receive 2% per cent of the estimated cost. As this is $400,000, hisshare would probably be $10,000. The second best plan will be given $1,500, the third $1,000 and each of the remain- ing competitors $500 apiece. All plans sub- mitted become the property of the depot company. The terms ofthe competition are in viola- tion of the rules of the American Institute of Architects, which require the members to charge 8% per cent of the cost of the work. The Board of Directors of the Union Depot Oo. wrote to several prom- inent architects inviting them to enter the competition. Anumberof them declined, deeming it unprofessional to enter it, the rates being lower than the architect’s schedule, Other architects were invited to fill their place, whoset to work to furnish plans. William 8. Eames, the President of the St. Louis chapter of the Architects’ Union, refused to enter, while Mr. Link, the Vice-President, has already furnished plans. Mr. Link said that this was the opportunity of a man’s lifetime and could not afford to be thrown away because of a slight discrepancy inthe terms. Besides the com- petition was fairer and more favorable to all parties than many which had taken place recently—notably the Mercantile Club compe- tition—which had been approved by the St. Louis Chapter of the Institute. Dr. Taussig of the Union Depot Co. said that the terms were more favorable than the architects’ usual competitions which gave the successful candidate 34 per cent and the others nothing, while in this competition every one received a reward.

Abb Veatch Tells of His Many Shipwrecks and Wins the Palm From Hard-Luck George—He Lived Through Thirteen Aocidents. The ‘‘boys’’ were through with the day's work and were sitting about the Post-D1s- PATCH Office ornamenting the desks with use- ful if not pretty teet, filling the air with to- bacco smoke and discussing the ‘‘scoops’’ they had on the other fellow. Hard Luck George had told his usual tale of woe—how some one had stepped on him or how he had been blamed for what some other fellow had done. The boys laughed as usual and were about to award him the palm for hard luck when Abb Veatch, the Posr-Dispatca river reporter, broke in, J don’t want to compete with George,’’ he began dryly, ‘‘but I have had a good deal of hard luck myself. Ihave been in thirteen steamboat accidents and thirteen has been an unlucky number for me. ‘*I commenced steamboating when 18 years ot age. Iran off from a good home and de- voted parents and shipped as third pantry- man on the old steamer Fawn. I did not get a cent of wages, but that did not matter, for I had reached the height of my boyish ambi- tion to become a steamboatman. I next got a position on the James D. Parker as third cook at the enormous salary of $1 per week. Well, the Parker struck a rock on the falls at Louisville and my ambition and clothes were considerably dampened, but I got out safely and in a few days had secured another berth. THE RAPIDAN DISASTER. My next accident was up Tennessee River mear the famous Pittsburg Landing. I was ‘flunkey’ on the Rapidan and with a desire to some day be captainof the boat was en- tirely satisfied with the world, but the Rapidan found a snag and went to the bot- tom where a portion of her wreck may still be seen in low water. My next position was onthe Katydid running from Vicksburg to Greenville on the Lower Mississippi and it was here I made the acquaintance of steam- boat rats. You know every steamboat has rats on her, no matter how new or how clean the boat may be, and tosee them leave the boat isasure signof approaching danger. We were lying alongside a barge at Vicks- burg, taking coal, when some of the crew no- ticed the rats leaving. They immediately in- formed the Captain that they would remain in town that trip. We pulled out from Vicks- burg at5 p. m., and everything went on se- renely until4 o’clock next morning, when the Katydid pickedup asnagon the star- board side, and it cleaned out everything clear to the rudder. The cook-house was gone and everything in it. In the bar we had sardines and cove oysters to sell to the plantation negroes. The sardines and cove oysters were all we had to eat for three days. IthoughtIhad enough steam- boating then, and when we reached Memphis I wired the owner that I wanted to come home. He answered to stay there. I wired again and got the same reply. The third time I wired: ‘Stopping at the Peabody Hotel, pay- ing $4 per day. In less than an hour I re- ceived instruction to come home. My next position was fourth clerk on the old side- wheel Idlewild, whose time of 15 hours and 29 minutes from Oairo to Evans- ville has never been equaled. We were lying at Weston, Ky., one morning preparing tounload a boiler. Iwas onthe forecastle, where of course I had no business. The stage was in place and everything was ready to move the boiler and Mate Bob Ken- nedy—now dead and gone—gave the usual signalto start the capstan. than started when six kegs of powder which were inthe powder magazine and directly under me, exploded. There were about twenty men onthe fdrecastie and they were horribly mangled, Their cries for help were the most pitiful Jever heard. They begged to be shot tobe relieved from their pain. Well, as usual I did not get a scratch, but it was a very Darrow escape. The next accident was the burning of the steamer John 8. Hopkins at the Evansville wharf. The mate discovered the fire and ran through the cabin fring his revolver and. waking all the passengers, who got off safely. The John T. Bransford was the next one. She sank at Shotwells, on the Ohio River, but the water was so low no one was drowned, The C. N. Davis was the next. She sank opposite Mt. Vernon, Ind., and no one has ever yet learned what caused her to sink. A TERRIBLE LOSS OF LIFE. I took passage on the Golden City at New Orleans for the Ohio | where I had been standing.

I saw the boat was headed for the bank, so I stopped and waited for the crash which I knew would fol- low. My room-mate, who, I believe, was a correspondent for some New York paper, stopped beside me. The ‘‘rousters’’ crowded round the head of the boat, ready to jump, which proved to bea leap to death for them. As the Golden City went in head on“ she struck the tug Oriole, cut her into pieces and then sunk a loaded coal barge before her headway was checked. I was by this time getting most awfully warm where I was standing, as the fire by that time was only about twenty feet away. I saw the boat had struck the bank and motioned to my room - mate to follow me. He stared vacantly at me and walked as straight back into the firé as a man could go. His actions frightened me almost to death, and I hardly had sense enough to run down and get off. Just as I did so the chimneys fell and crushed in that part of the boiler deck I think there were thirty-seven people lost in that disaster and about sixty people saved. The Belmont was the next. She turned over in the Ohio River. There were twelve people, I belleve, drowned, but she had a barge in tow and the majority ofthe passen- gers were saved. The next was the W. F. Nisbet.

Lonpon, June 27.—There is something very mysterious about the movements of the men whose names are mentioned with Mers- bacher’s in the New York Life Insurance Co.’s defalcation. Last week, when Presi- dent Beers was in Paris, Merzbacher was there too,stopping at the Hotel Scribe. When Beers arrived in London, Merzbacher found his way to an adjacent hotel under an as- bumed name. Merzbacher’s partner, San- chez, came from Barcelona and occupied the adjoining apartment to Beers. Talking with the SunDAY Post-Dispatcu’s correspondent on Thursday night, Sanchez said that he had not the remotest idea where Merzbacher was. Yesterday when shown a copy of the New York Wor.Lp of June 17 containing Merzbacher’s statement, which published likewise in the Post-DisPaTcH of of that date, Sanchez admitted that he had been in correspondence with him, but denies having seen him. INJURED INNOCENCE. Both Beers and Sanchez profess to be very much disgusted at the tone of injured inno- cence Merzbacher assumes in his letter to the public, and declare that nearly all of the im- portant statements made in it are wholly un- true. Sanchez says that neither he nor the New York Life consented either in writing or otherwise to Merzbacher leaving the country. According to Sanchez’ story, they sim- ply agreed to shut elr eyes while Merzbacher slipped away without prosecu- tion, but not untilthey had squeezed out vf him every dollar of assets which could be realized. As the company lost no money by Merzbacher’s irregularities, Sanchez denied their right to say whether he should be pros- ecuted or not, but Sanchez took the precau- — 2 of having some written admissions ich place Merzbacher very much in his power. He says he proposes to make Merz - statement given 7 A GIGANTIC CONSPIRACY, devised by enemies of the New York Life to ruin it.

They have two Hotchkiss guns. The distance to Oreiba Village is ninety miles. It is the largest village on the reservation. The cause of the dispatch of troops to this point was a dispatch sent from Keam’s Canon by Lieut. Britt on Monday last by courier for a strong force, announcing that the Mogquis were hostile. The trouble at that point arises from an order of Indian Com- missioner Morgan, made last winter, in which he directed that the Indian children be sent to the school in the Moqui reservation.

After the withdrawal of the troops in March the Navajoes made threats against the Moguis to such an extent that the Mbguis, who have their children in school at Ki 8 Canon, became alarmed, and a considerable number armed themselves with rifles, shot guns, bows and arrows, clubs and other weapons and appeared at the schools at Keam’s Canon, saying that the Navajoes had threatened to kill their Government school teacher and the Mogul school children. This was the occasion of Britt’s march to Keam’s Canon. THE SCHOOL CLOGED. On arriving at the village he found that the children bad been withdrawn from the school and that the solicitation of the Acting Agent Collins had secured their withdrawal. Collins went with him to visit the Mogqu! Village of Oreiba, where he found matters as Indians have been busily engaged in coliect- ing rattlesnakes, and many hundreds are collected in a stone lodge devoted to this purpose. The dance is always opened by an old man, barefooted and crowned with a gariand of cottonwood leaves, holding in front of him a flat earthen bowl, from ground of cornmeal, and a third bears a necklace of bears’ claws in his left hand and a rattle in his right. Behind comea crowd of men and boys carrying ratties and wands tipped with eagies’ feathers. All the dancers wear tor- toiseshell rattles tied to the right Knee, small bunches of red feathers on the head, their faces blackened from brow to upper lip, while the mouth and chin are smeared with white kaolin as seen in the sketch. After marching around the sacred stone, brandish- ing the feather-tipped wands and shaking flight from the murderer is on a gently rising ground up which the country road winds among the trees. No fences flank the road, it being barely wide enough for teams to pass. Trees overhang and, except where the road is straight, shelter the traveler from observa- tion. No better place could have been se- | ances, and it was not till after the serious- lected, but it is mysterious how the deed was done while so many travelers were passing to and fro. The murderer’ seems to have seized upon or chanced upon a vacant five minutes when the road was free from travel to do his hideous work. The hill is covered from his own with trees and dense undergrowth. Once having left the road, the criminal was secure from observation, and, perhaps, did his work at his leisure.

ble oe Pee. te JES 4 * CHARITY’S HOME. — ——— —— An Institution Where Helpless Little Sufferers Find Relief. SCENES IN THE WARDS OF THE ST, LOUIS CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL One of the City’s Noblest Charities. An attractive brick building which shelters half a hundred helpless, crippled and suffer - ing little ones rises from an expansive green lawn on Jefferson avenue and Adams street, and over the door isa sign which reads St. Louis Children’s Hospital,“ a name that is laden with charity and suggestive of generous, unselfish labors in behalf of un- fortunate little children. A SUNDAY Post-DisPaTcoH representative visited the institution yesterday and ex- amined with curious interest the arrange- ments for relieving the little sufferers and in- creasing their comfort. And now for a glimpse of the interior. On the first floor, leading from the doorway isa divided corridor. On one side is the room of the Matron, Mrs. Sheble, who so courteously showed the visitors through the nome. This room is a bijou of feminine comfort and ease and just adjoining is an apartment with a little bed, which is now vacant but which hearted Mrs. Sheble feels needs her „ attention both night and day. on the other side of the is the reception-room, a pleasant, — apartment, where books and cheery pictures enlist the attention of the visitors until the residents are able to receive them. Lower down comes the dining-room or refectory, and in this well lighted, airy room there is every evidence ot cleanliness and comfort. One iong table at which twenty plates are laid forms the center. and the simple, white cloth and cool white chinaand glass of the setting give ample testimony to the care of the children who are happily able to come to the table. At breakfast there is always oat- meal, some nutritious grain bread, butter, tea and milk. At dinner, soup, vegetables, some wholesome meat anda light pudding. At supper only bread and milk is served, but there is plenty of both. THE FIRST WARD. Just over the way from the dining-room comes the first pathetic evidence of the sad part of the institution. In the first ward are perhaps twenty little children, most of them con valescents. They are every where, lying with white, tired faces on the bed, or else sitting wearily on the chairs. Sometimes near them lies tossed about blocks or toys, and by the side of sometiny girl pa- tient is laid her beloved doll. It is strange how little girls, particularly sick little girls, cling with devoted love to their doll babies. An instance is told of a ceiebrated physician and an unknown little girl who was brought into a hospital suffering from some disease which necessitated the amputation of one of her legs. She was placed on the operating —— ta ble and given nor pet doll, which she clasped firmly in her tiny arms. No chloroform, or any thing was given her to cause forgetfulness. She was brave enough to bear this pain without it, her nurse said. Patiently, without a mur- mur, her lips compressed, the child lay while the physician, cut and sawed at the poor sacrificed leg; closely hugging her doll she remained without a tear until the end of the operation. Then, when the great doctor took her n his arms and Kissed her brave littie face, be said: Tou area noble little girl, but now dollie must dear as you do, and have her leg cut off too. Then only did the intense love and heroism of the child manifest itself. She was not willing her doll should suffer as she did, and clasping it closer in her arms, she begged the physi- cian not to touch her dollie with his knife. But about the room the faces of the children are studies of sweet pathos and patient bear- ing. Pallid, yet smiling and earnest, they moved in their couches to look at the visitors ingquiringly , or else turned in their tiny chairs to smile a weary welcome. Just now they are recovering from measies, and the odor of the disinfectants through the building was anything but pleasant forthe sick children. Following the matron up-stairs we came to the surgical room, where twenty-four little suffering ones were being treated for various diseases of spine, hip or head, any- thing which called for the skill and knife of the surgecn. Here was a little cripple with crutches, another with PATIENT SUFFERERS. There was no complaining—only patience wearily. „A spinal troudle, said the matron. ul be recover!“ I asked softly, for the bare little tired arms appealed strangely of be i 8 7 . é 2p ALT i ot awaits any little new comer whom the kind- N ee ee Ye ERGs ae regen 52 * ae. 4 Te See Oe 3 « 1 * ‘oe * 5 . 1 N K 8 43 ir EY Le hes “el? . e N 8 Re 9 ie

Causes of the Revolt 5 Progress of the Strugg 1 HOW THE CONFLICT BETWEEN THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS AROSE. Balmaceda’s Course and Reasons for His Unpopularity—Refusal of Supplies by Congress, and Deposition of the Presi- dent—The Legislature and Judiciary Suspended— Terrible Atrocities, orion, May 25.—The presence in this port of Admiral McCann with the vessels of the United States Navy has greatly relieved the minds of the Americans resident In this city, as the feeling in relation to the Itata incident is very bitter among the mass of the people, although the insurgent authorities gave up the vessel without a protest. The condition of affairs remains unchanged, and the status is likely to be preserved unless Balmaceda’s torpedo boats succeed in sinking the ships of the insurgents, as there ts little likelihood of the two armies coming together, owing to the expanse of waterless desert be- tween the Northern and Southern States. The real cause of the struggle between Pres- ident Balmaceda and the Congressional party is asserted by the advocates of the latter to be the culmination of a long and bitter strife between the President and the Congress, the former striving to prevent the passage of an electorial system which would curb the power which has long been held by the Pres- identto virtually name his successor, the latter endeavoring to make constitutional opposition between parties effective at the polls. The appointment of every civil and municipal! officer in Chili was in the hands ae the President, and he could thus absolutely control the elections. A CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY. It was this system which Congress endeav- ored to break up. Balmaceda early saw the necessily of securing the support of the mili- tary, and demanded that Congress pass laws mereasing the pay of the officers and men of the army and navy. This Congress agreed to do on condition that the election laws should be passed first. To this the adherents of Bal- maceda were strenuously opposed, and Many bitter debates took place. The contest was not long confined within the walls of Con- gress. Parties of bravoes, generally soldiers in disguise, paraded the streets, and at every favorable opportunity fell upon the members opposed to the President, and brutally beat them. So frequent did these assaults become that the opposition party were compelled to carry arms ontheir way to and from the hall. The Congress, in which there wasa large majority against Balma- ceda, remained firm, and refused to pass any appropriation bilis until the election laws were passed. On the suggestion of Balma- ceda an action was brought before the Su- preme Court by an officer who wished to re- ceive his pay. The best legal talent was se- cured on both sides, as upon the decision of the court the whole controversy was considered to hinge. The decision was un- favorable to Balmaceda’s party. The court held that the servant of the people, for whose future services no provision had been made, had no claim. He had no longer an em- ployer. Under the decision the country had no army, since Congress had declined to make any appropriation for its support. THE SUPREME COURT DEFIED. The Congressional party was jubilant, as this decision was regarded asa de h- blow to the claims of the President and his party. Balmaceda, however, was not ready so easily to submit. He issued a pro- nunciamento declaring that he was the etecutive to whose care the preservation of the integrity of the laws and rights ofthe republic had been placed; that by the organic law he was the head of the country, and that this law could not be over- set by factious opposition on the part of Congress. The refusal to sustain the Gov- ernment he proclaimed to be revolutionary, deciared Congress dissolved, set aside the Supreme Court, as chief executive took com - mand of the army and navy, and collected taxes and issued bills on the credit of the Government. Congress refused to disperse, whereupon many of the leading mem- bers were arrested. and a system of wholesale imprisonment began. In re- taliation tothe proclamation deposing him, issued by the Chillan Congress on Jan. 1, Balmaceda arrested all who dared oppose him, and became virtual dictator in the country over which the control of the army, which he had propitiated by an increase of 50 per cent in the pay, gave him power. Terrible stories of the cruelties perpetrated by his order. are told. Men of wealth and position have been fearfully flogged for ven- turing to express sympathy with the Con- gressional party. The ‘‘cat’’ is in daily use, and the prisons are filled to overflowing. THE PRESIDENT’S DEFENSE. Balmaceda and his partisans put a different interpretation on the revolt. They assert that the President is fighting the battle of the masses against the classes. years, it is urged, Ohili, while nominally a republic, has practically been an oligarchy, in which a few wealthy families have con- trolled the elections to the Presidency and Oongress utterly irrespective of the rights and wishes ofthe great majority of the peo- ple. The railroad franchises granted by the President, about which so much complaint has been made, were it is asserted looked upon as perguisites of the aris- tocracy, and Balmaceda, in ignoring tuts class, and recognizing the people at large, been accustomed to unchallenged ‘control of all financial affairs. His appointments to the army are asserted to have been made for the purpose of breaking up the oligarchic regime, and rendering the army the servant of the nation, and not. of a class. Whatever the For many town. The Government had garrisons in the nitrate towns, and after a sharp skirmish at Zapiga, they recaptured Pisagua by hard fighting. The insurgents rallied their forces, and after a destructive bombardment the fleet and the burning of a large por - of the town, regained the ground which they had lost. Balmaceda had 30, 000 soldiers under arms in Central Chili, but hundreds of miles of desert coast prevented his reinforc- ing the garrisons, which were compelled to depend upon their own resources. Col. Robles, his representative, undertook to re- trieve his losses by a determined attack upon the insurgent forces near the village of San Francisco, but was defeated after great slaughter on both sides. Iquique was immediately occupied by the insurgents under cover of the fleet. Col. Robles again met a portion of the insurgent army at Hua- raz, and after routing it, advanced to Iquique, where there was desperate fighting for twelve hours. The insurgent forces being hard pressed by the assault, the fleet opened fire upon the town and practically destroyed it. An armistice was arranged the in- tervention of the English naval commander, and the Government troops retired, aftera drawn battle. Another engagement speedily followed at Pozo Almonte, in whieh the insurgents were completely victorious. Col. Robles, after losing one-half his force, was wounded and,itis currently reported, was subsequently killed on the fleld by excited soldiers. Antofagasta was left at the mercy of the fleet, and was occupied without a struggle. AN UNFORTUNATE COUNTRY. In the meantime Chili is enduring all the horrors of civil warin their worst form. In order to retain the indispensable friendsttip of the army the President has been obliged to relax the reins of discipline and to allow the soldiery to burn, plunder and ravage at will. In Central Chili, outside of the larger cities, a veritable reign of terror prevails. The troops acknowledge but two classes, those who belong tothe army and those who do not, and the latter are mercilessly treated. Robber bands infest the less thickly settled portion of the country, and by confining their depredations tothe prop- erty of those who are known or believed to be in sympathy with Congress are assured immunity. In the Northern provinces the hastily organized levies of the insurgents are under little better control, and the lot of the partisans of Balmaceda is by no meansa happy one. Between the two forces Ohili seems in a fair way to be destroyed. A New Millie-Christine. From the London Telegraph. A remarkably interesting phenomenon was shown this afternoon at the office of the Fi- garo newspaper toa very limited number of specially invited guests, comprising the most distingu ished medical men of the metropolis. Among the laymen present were Lora Lytton, M. Alexandre Dumas, M. Ludovic Halevy, M. Munkacsy, M. Gervex, M. Detaille, Prince Roland Bonaparte, Senor Ruiz Zorilla and M. Clemenceau. The phenomenon consists of twin sisters joined together at the lower part of their bodies. They were born at Bohemia and are 14 years otage. They are not united by a mere liga- ture, like the Siamese brothers, but resembie rather in their formation Millie-Christine, some years ago exhibitedall over Europe. Millie-Christine, however, had only one stomach, sothat thetwo sisters experienced the feelings of hunger and thirst at the same time. It is not so with Rosa and Josepha, who, having two stomachs, have distinct tastes in the matter of food and drink. XM. Maurice Lefevre—a member of the Figaro staf, who introduced the young ladies in a few brief and bright remarks— told an anusing story of how after they had tasted champagne for the first time both were ill. Josepha madeup her mind she would not touch the —— —— wine again, and she has kept her word, whereas Rosa still indulges in the bev- erage she prefers. When one was ill the other was very angry at having to goto bed, and insisted on feeding in her usual way. They are thus quite different betngs so far as sensations, inclinations, mind and heart are concerned. The children are quite prettyg they are healthy in appearance, and they ap- pear to be very amiable and good-tempered. On their wey to Paris a curiovs question was raised. The officials wanted to reckon them by heads, whereas the manager in- sisted on an opposite decision, and he gained Lis point, so they came for a single fare. THE MANIPURIS.

Special Correspondence of SUNDAY Post~-DIsPATCH. CALCUTTA, May 29.—The officials who have gone to Simla are considerably exercised over the future of the Manipuris, whose re- volt brought a swarm of artists and corre- spondents, among them Mr. John Yarmon of the News, to whose courtesy I am indebted for inclosed sketches. Now that the revolt has been put down at a much smalier ex- pense of blood and treasure than had been anticipated, the question arises, What isto overlooking the Assam Valley, on the west by the Oochar District and on the east by Independent Burmah. on the south the boundary is indefinite, abutting as it does on the country inhabited by the wild hill tribes of Sushais, Kukis and others. The State consists of an extensive valley, about 650 square milesin extent, and a large tract of dificult mountainous country between Assam, Cochar, Burmah and Chitta- gong, the total area being about 7,600 square miles. The population is estimated at about 165,000, about two fifths being Manipuris proper and three-fifths members of the various tribes known in India under the generic title of hill men. The hills are densely covered with... jungle and large forest trees, and there are scarcely any roads at all. The forests are filled with wild elephants, leopards, tigers, bears and buffalo. The populationis by no means homogenous, and the authority of the ruler is nominal rather than real in the re- moter parts of the country, The most valu- able product of the country isa race of pe- culiarly hardy and active ponies. The game of polo originated among the Manipuris, and was adopted from them by the English. BRITISH INTERESTS. The British were first brought in contact with the Manipurisin 1824, at the outbreak of the Burmese war. British assistance was asked by the Raja, the Burmese were ex- pelled. and an English political agent was sta - tioned at the city of Manipuri, Since that time it has been one of the protested estates, but owing to its situation had little contact with 0 7 | 71 ö a \ i, 1 } i} * 17 * { .

Miss Payne, formerly crganist at St. Johns East, from ROYAL RAKES, A SHORT BIOGRAPHY OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE PRINCE OF WALES. — — He Did Not Take to Browning, but He Chummed With Valentine Baker— Lady Mordaunt Couldn't Make It Ali Right With Charlie. The threat made by Lord Brooke to bring suit for divorce and name the Prince of Wales as co-respondent, adds another chapter to the scandalous life of that person- age and the friends of royalty in England are sending up that petition for the Queen with more than ordinary fervor, ‘‘grant her in health and prosperity long to live, for when good Queen Vic dies it is quite possible that Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, and his hopeful son, Albert Victor, will be obliged to plead tothe indictment now being framed against them by the outraged decency and common sense of the English people. The indictment contains many counts and to plead guilty toany one of them would in any other country than old Engiand subject the offender to exclusion not only from the high place of kingship but from the com- panionship of all decent and self-respecting persons. No prince in modern history has outdone the present Prince of Wales in disgusting peopie with himself and royalty. He has shown himself an empty-headed noodle, without Intelligence enough to sdstain the ordinary duties of self-respecting society, to say nothing ofthe high office to which he is Gestined. Even the speeches he makes on public occasions are written for him and memorized. He had the best opportunities and has chosen the worst. Instead of asso- cCilating with men like Spencer, Tennyson, Browning, Lubbock and Darwin, whose soct- ety he might have had, he has chummed with men like Valentine Baker and Gordon-Cum- ming, and his female companions have not been of the sort that ennobles a man.

They were, it is true, all written before Lady Mordaunt’s mar riage, but it was never made clear why Albert Edward, a married man, should carry on a correspondence with a young girl. It was pointed out, however, that the letters were of the most innocent character. It was also said in defense of the Prince that, know- ing as he did that Sir Charlies discounten- anced the acquaintance with his wife, it was only natura) that the Prince should want to keep his visits secret. This defense sounds strange to Gemocratic ears, but it was satis- factory to the British nation, which rises above logic when the ‘‘monarchy’’ is in- volved, WHAT THE CASE MEART. The real significance of this Mordaunt case is, however, not fully apparent without an understanding of the legal form in which it was cast. A novel point was raised at the outset and it was raised in the interest of the Prince of Wales and that most fetich, ‘‘the monarchy.’’ The question tried before Lord Penzance was not the question of divorce. When Sir Charlies Mordaunt brought his action the defense made the point that Lady Mordaunt was insane at the time she received legal service, April 9, 199. The so-called trial was Mm reality an inquiry into her sanity and the question which it decided had reference to the right of a petitioner to sue for a divorce when the respondent was at the time or shortly after the service of the citation insane. The Mordaunt Case was really one for stay of proceedings. The friends of the Prince saw very clearly that if Lady Mordaunt went upon the stand and testified to her adultery with His Royal Highness the contradiction between the two would fix upon one the stigma of perjury, and even the stoutest snob in England might be shaken in his faith; consequently the insanity piesa was a desperate device to keep Lady Mordaunt om the witness stand. The testi- mony brought forward, while it threw lighton the actual question of adultery, was intended to bear legally upon the ques- tion of sanity. The jury Feb. , 187, found that the lady’s. insanity had been proved, whereupon Lord Penzance and Mr. Justice Keating decided that insanity operated asa dar to further proceedings. They held that as she was not able to give instruction to her counsel and attorneys her husband had no recourse but to walt patiently for her death. It was a specious plea, but it served its pur- pose and saved the Prince. Sir Charles finally succeeded in getting a bill through Partia- ment covering his case and in 1#75 was given his freedom. Lady Mordaunt was put away in an asylum and has not been beard from since. June 12, 1675, Valentine Baker, Lieutenant- Colonel of the Tenth Hussars, a Doon com panion of the Prince of Wales, made an in- decent assault on a young lady ina railway carriage. He was convicted by the jury and Gismissed from the army. The Prince made every effort to save his friend and {it was said that he offered money tothe young lady's family if the case were stopped. He was al- most as badly smirched in this case as in the Mordaunt divorce. The papers all commented severely upon the action of his Royal Highness end the Times read bim a paternal lecture on the dis- asters which overtook poor dog Tray. Be- sides nobody could understand and nobody has ever since explained why the Prince worked so hard to prevent the punishment of the gun. After the Baker case the Prince was not found out in any wrong doing although the number of ‘‘favorites’’ did not diminish and Scandal was just as busy as ever. The bacca- rat case, however, puts him in a worse plight then ever.

It Will Surpass the Present As the Pres ent Does the Past—Diaena’s Orescent Will Become the Golden Sickle of the Reaper. It must not be supposed for one moment that the progress of events and of ideas which carries women into almost every ae partment of public service will leave them outside the sphere of political action and in fuence. Itis out of all justice that tte genes should be governed by ignorance and moral purpo se overcrowGed by gross passion and/greedy instinct. The liberties of the women of this country to-day are largely at the mercy of hordes of hail-civilised men, whom the tide of emigration caste upon our shores, where their votes soon become the property of the political party which appeais most strongly fo their love of gain or love of power. This state of things is anomalous an d cannot continue.

THE SITUATION IN THE MARKETS AND THE FUTURE OUTLOOK. — 4 No Let-Up to the Let-Down in Grein— Lower Prices Seen All Around—Latest From Other Centers—Chat From ’Ohange and From the Street. July wheat came very near striking the 850 point yesterday. It did seil at 85%%c, which was 5% be- low the preceding Saturday. Aug. sold down to del (Me decline) and Dec. to 970 (4% decline). It has been a bear week nearly all through. There was one day of advancing prices, buat this upheaval was very shorf-lived and most of the time the tendency was all one way like a cow's tail—downward. The American crop has been the dig influence in the market, though the European conditions have had a material effect, and the latter had a decidedly opposite effect to that the longs would like to have seen. The foreigners appears to have a big disgust on just now, and their markets lack the buoyancy and ajiriness they were so remarkable fora few weeks ago. The fact that over 40.000, 000 bu is coming to them they will shortly have to take care of, that they have an immense amount—estimated to be as much as 100,- 000,000 bu—bought here and elsewhere at largely higher prices than now rule, and that their own crops are rapidly approach- ing the marketing stage, are possibly consid- erations that weigh heavily upon them, At any rate foreign markets have been dragging heavily down- ward and are marked by great depression. This weak- ness abroad intensifies the bearish feeling on this side the water, where the magnificent crop prospects and its nearness to market weigh heavily upon speculation. Al- ready the de effect of new wheatis seen in the market. There have been on t dar and sacked lots received so far of the 1 06,056 bu n the week before, yet the demand was l and d holding off in anticipation that the cash market went all to pieces.

There are already a few good mines opened, princi- pally by Leadville miners, among which may be mentioned the Gates, Ruby and the Moni- tor jodes. The ore seems to occur im the dolomitic limestone, however, instead of on the upper plane of the blue variety, so that it is probable that below the former ore may also be found. No shaft is, as yet, more than eighty feet deep to the mineral, and most of them are sunk just above a fine out-crop of — iron ore that circles the foot - 8. . The Shenango of the Allegheny Mining Oo. has gotten into a fine streak, of about two feet in thickness, of lead carbonate ore. The original purpose was to sink the shaft to connect with a body of lead sulphide that was found in a winze on the 880. foot level, but the water was bad during the time of the melting winter’s snow, so a force was put into the upper, or 350-foot level, to prospect. In this work the streak was discovered, so it is hara- ly likely that the shaft, which is now 450 feet deep, will be sunk soon. Of course, the winte will be Opened up to furnish data for lower workings, but that will be about all. The ore carries chloride of silver in considerable quantities and very probably comes from an extension ol the celebrated Mikado chute, which contained some of the richest ofe ever found inthis district. THE PENROSE SHAFT. The Penrose folks have completed all of their financial arrangements and are now hard at work sinking the shaft. This was sunk to a point 316 feet from the surface, when a diamond drill was brought into requisition for another 190 feet. At this point the ground became so soft that casing for the drill was reguired. This was put on,and ata vertical depth of 550 feet a fine contact of about ten feet of fine mineral Was en- countered. It is to open up that contact that the presemt sinking has been inaugurated. That side of Carbonate Hill ts likely to as- tonish even the Leadville miners this season, as Crill holes along its bend have invariably met the contact, which means, in this dis- trict, ore at some point close at hand. Some new arrangement is being made by the owners of the Far Down, necessitating a temporary closing down. Machinery has been placed over the shaft, and everything is in readiness to open up the late strike as soon as these arrangements are perfected. On the Moyer the big ton concentrating mill is progressing rapidly, and the house is now completed. Machinery will begin to go ters. The Continental Chief people are now lay- ing the foundation for their big concentrating driving the new incline ahead. It has now advanced more than four hundred feet from the end of | the tunnel, which is about four hundred feet | from the surface. The mine is not putting | out much smelting ore, only that taken from te breast of the incline, as driven ahead, | the big stopes of concentrating ore are being left standing until the completion of the | mill, which will havea capacity of 100 tons a day of the crude ore. STRIKE IX THE CATO. Considerable excitement has been caused Horseshoe or Hilitop District. The Globe Smelting Co. have a lease and bond on these properties and have been working a large force of men in taking out ore from the Last Chance. Meanwhile a tunnel was driven in on the Cato, and at a point 100 feet from the entrance an entirely new ore chute, 400 feet | west of the chute upon which the Hilltop and the Last Chance have been working, has been encountered. As the top of the chute only Das been cut, sinking has been going on and some ten feet of ore has been disciosed. | This runs, on an average, more than one bun- | dred ounces of silver to the ton, and also carries lead and copper, though to what ex- | tent is not known, as no determinations have upper workings, which was dipping too fast to be profttably operated from the old levels. The tunnel is now in about 70 feet, and it will take 200 feet more driving to reach the ob- point. St Louis is now under lease, and is worked to some extent above the tun- from the tunnel, at a point 800 feet entrance. This, itis understood, AS expected, the Capital shaft on Searl pincer, Ore. This ata depth of 385 feet, 300 which was through wash and lake beds. formatoin. of this disclosed, the lower portion of which is composed of an iron carbonate, which at present assays about twenty-three ounces of sliver to the ton. A great influx of water oc- curred with this strike, but this having been the Carbonate hillore chutes in a northerly direction, and is so satisfactory that machin- ery is now going up on the M. E. O., located 850 feet to the southeast of the Oapital, and it is the intention to send this shaft down to catch the same contact. More than half of this work is al ready accomplished, as the shaft is already 190 feet deep. On the new strike in the West shaft of the Crescent’s drifting was begun at the 330- foot point. The fault plane was cut through in the shaft and the drifting will be to the work, in order to catch the ore on its dip. The trouble overa portion of the Diamond B claim has been amicably adjusted by each party giving a lease to the Woodford brothers, who will sink the shaft and divide the royalties between the contesting parties. Good ore exists tn these workings and ship- ments will begin at once. It is exceedingly doubtful if the Sixth street people will continue their work much longer, as with fourteen pumps gping they canuoct hold the water down. It is thought, however, that some of the mines that are being benefitted by this pumping will assist in payime expenses for a while, as the water would undoubtedly close upon them if the Sixth street folks close down. JASPER COUNTY MINES. REPORTS FROM THE CARTHAGE, CARTERVILLE, JOPLIN AND OTHER CAMPS. CanTHaGe, Mo., June 27.—Mining news becomes more important each week, and the number of persons interested in the develop- ment of land correspondingly increases. Those persons whose interests are large rarely find time to note other schemes for money making and are abundantly content to give close attention to business which years of experience has taught them yields certain profit to those who follow it with care. During the past seven days some changes ofownership have been made, and a large addition of capital secured. Some of the oldest mines in the county, which* for years were allowed to run to waste, are now show- ing signs of renewec activity and ft is no lon ger noticed that the proprietors are con- tent w ith surface mining, but, on the con- trary, shafts are being sunk and drifting carried on at a depth, the very mention of which would have scared of ail earlier prospectors whose belief was pinned to shallow mining, under the im- pression that surface belief prevails that the mfheral deposits are deep, and the Geeper thericher. Some tests recently made reveal the fact as undeniably cértain that at four or five hundred feet deep the ore seems Umitless m extent and better in quality. To reach these beds rapidly, it is only necessary that new machinery be ob- tained, which both for strength and adapta- Dilitty is sulted to the new conditions Known | to prevail. It is observed that many changes are being quictiy made, and * 4 it is certain mat 2 striking transfor- | the gg ein be mation is certain to follow as to stile and magnitude of the apparatus of the mines so soon as the profits derived will permit. But little is said in the camps as the present own- ers are intent in making all the changes they can without attracting attention, intending as quickly as possible to acquire possession of other land in the immediate vicinity for the reason that itcan be worked easily in con- junction withthe present holdings without any considerable outlay for machinery be- yond that already being made. Carterville and Webb City, also Jopiin, have thousands of acres within their corporate limits which to-day may de acquired or small sums, which | comparatively will when only partially developed to paying condition ofthe land now being | operated in these localities, become worth ten or twenty times as much as it is possible to get for it now. It is this knowledge of coming values which leads capitalists quickly to acquire all they can. mining | would ever pay. Now, however, the dition, and with the new machinery in post- tion are ready to push developments. The Lingee Diggings south of the city are working in stuff. They are sinking in order to have a heavy stope of mineral to work on to keep the gigs Constantly working, One of the best prospectsin the county is at the old Blue Heron mines. They are now being worked by practical miners, who raise the mineral rapidly. All they need isto be given better raflway facilities in order to re- duce expense of transportation to market. They are in rich ground, which will yield equal to any in that locality. This week 4 large interest was purchased in Scotland mining lands. This was one of the earliest mining settlements in the county, but was without railway facilities, and never attracted much attention. Recent- ly it has been demonstrated that the land is very rich, and it is expected that raliroad facilities will soon be given to it, as several prominent railroad men have secured a large interest in it, and probably will induce the Missouri Pacific to build a branch near by. If so, it will boom. The Local Market. 0 There was very littie trading on the Mining Exchange, and few sales were made. Mickey Breen opened somewhat stronger, and a sale of 100 shares was made at 41%. Later the stock was offered at this figure with no takers, the best bids being at 38%. Elizabeth a little more than heid its own. Bidding advanced from $1.75 to $1.80, and at the latter price 100 shares were transferred. — market closed at 51. 77% bid, 1.92% asked. Affairsin the Little Albert show no signs of afinal settlement. While some of the stock- holders are willing to contribute to the fund to save the mine from being sold, others are not, and it is upcertain whether the requisite sum will be raised. A meeting will be held on Tuesday afternoon at the Lindell Hotel to determine what shali be done. A letter fromthe Wud Cat announces that the rock has — - [ er and that some very good blue bonate of copper has been struck. This, it is predicted, Will lead to a large ore body. The superintendent is con- sidering the advisability of drifting to the right to follow a seam. uma opened at 77% bid, but a sale of 100 shares sent the price down to 76%.

The Industrials Again the Weak Point— The Day’s Transactions in Wall Street. —Weekly Bank Statement—Hubbard- Price Cotton Oircular. New Tonk, June 27.—Affairs in Wall street were exceptionally dull early in the week, and the ‘‘dip’’ in prices near the close, ac- companied as it was bya moderate increase in the volume of business, was hailed as a re- Heft by the small contingent of operators now engaged in chasing the market for eigtths and quarters. It 1s a peculiar, if not alto- gether anomalous condition of things—a market dull and declining in the face of a phenomenal winter crop already assured and better prospects for spring wheat, corn and other smafi grains than the country has had ina decade. As matters look now, the general market is destined to go still lower. Long stock has commenced to come out in goodly quantity and the factors which have induced the sell ing are stillin force. According to reliable authority, the condition of the sterling ex- change market and the necessities of the foreigners warrant the assumption that fully as much if not more gold will be shipped next week than during the week just closed. Only a radical change in the fnan- Clal conditions will prevent a large affux. There are two things which ought to command the close attention of Operators. First comes the London situation and second the attitude of the local leaders. There are many important firms and wealthy individual capitalists, whose sympathies, either from choice or necessity, are with the Dull side. If they see a chance to turm the market in an upward direction the move will be made in short order. Still another matter oughtto be accorded due weight, namely, that this country, commercially speaking, is sound, and that the dullness and depression in railroad securities arise chiefly from the untoward events of the past year in Europe. THE DAY'S TRANSACTIONS. New York, June 277.—Nothing intervened to stop the decline in the values of stocks on the Exchange this morning. The bank state - ment showed an increase of $2,229,000, but, just now, the bank statement, with easy money, counts for very littie aguinst the in- fluence of the outfiow of gold. The market showed considerable animation inthe early dealings, but the activity was for the most part confined to a few stocks, the general list being quite neglected. The industriais were again the weak point, especialiy Oord- age and Sugar, while Chicago Gas was com- paratively strong and Cordage opened at #, but immediately fell away to #1, while Sugar, after opening down 1% at 82, dropped to 81. The latter recovered a portion of its loss but the former inthe late dealings further retired to 8%. The losses in the general list were confined to small fractions in all the active stocks, but Tennessee Coal dropped from IM to 40%. Before the close Chicago Gas weakened and solddown to 0%. The most active stocks showed losses forthe day regardless of merits. The bottom prices in most cases were at the close. Sales for the half day reached , shares. THE Lift.

(Copyright. } | New Ton, June 25.—A piasza tea was one of the features of suburban galety this week. Tne veranda where the pleasant party as- gembled was screened with brown and cream- colored ‘awnings. Hangings of the same water-proof canvas covered the walls of the house under the piazza roof,and rugs of striped Japanese cotton, in brown and scar- let, were fung upon the floor. Reed curtains rolled up and down like shades to keep out the sunshine, and there were folding screens of matting and bamboo to break thé wind. Long boxes of brown and cream-colored tiles were set in rows upon the broad piazza railings, and filled with vines and scariet flowering geraniums. There was a low bamboo couch with cushioned seat covered with cream-colored and brown chints and heaped with cushiong in scarlet and brown. Several small bamboo tables sup- ported the tea service in brown and cream china, and there were comfortable bamboo chairs cushioned in brown. The gentle, white-haired hostess poured tea, with brown spice buds scattered over 7 the creamy cloth in front of ber. The hostess’ bright-eyed daughter dispensed chocolate from a stand that was glowing with geraniums. There werea many costumes that were worth describing, or else the play of light and shade gave the sprigged muslins and delaines and the dainty foulards and challies an importance and a charm that did not rightfully belong to them. A girl with blue eyes, a smile and light yel- low hair wore a pale creamy brown silk, sprigged with yellow. A chemisette of white mull was gathered full about the throat, and over this lay the standing ruche of lace that edged the deep V of the corsage. Brown rib- bons fastened a great bunch of buttercups upon the bosom, and wider ribbons made a hip girdle whose ends hung down in front nearly to the floor. About the waist and about the bottom of the skirt hung deep pointed lace flounces. There were pins of gold and amber in the fuzzy hair. More after the usual orderof frocks for blondes was a pale violet batiste that hung in long, straight folds about a pale, gentle girl, slimmer and more full of slow curves than Kathryn Kidder used to be in the days when she played in ‘‘Nordeck.’’ The skirt was ar- ranged in broad pleats and the front of the bodice was covered with Madeira work, through the pattern of which the hue of the frock was visible, ö A gown of fawn tweed was very pretty with waist and skirt ruchings of dark blue surah; so was a gown in Seine green foulard with girdle of green ribbons and full sleeves in shot pink and green. The hats that nodded and fluttered and as likely as not tilted most rakishly askew—for the flat hats now in fash- fon can hardly by any device or any exercise of ingenuity be kept in position— were most interesting. It is wonder- ful how a big ‘‘picture’’ hat alters a woman. There was one whom I hardly recognized. In town i had seen her three or four times dur ing the winter, small, demure, with a big forehead and plain hair combed back and slightly streaked with gray. Now here she was under a flapping black Leghorn, cov- ered with ostrich tips, a color in her cheeks and positively showing a dimple. She seemed to have changed her character. The whole upper part ofher face was hidden andthe lower part had put on youth and coquetry with summer headgear; and yet, I didn’t ’ like her as well. There was a soft China blue chip hat that wonderfully became a rosy girl of not more than 16. It was crinkled witha fine disregard of preconceived notions of probability both at the back and at the sides. In the hollows of the crinkles were laid clusters of black and yellow cowslips. A small wreath of the same flowers was tucked under the brim. Not at the piazza party, but on one or two other occasions there have been good opportunities for studying hair.

FEARFUL AND WONDERFUL: Carrie Oareless Tells the Secrets of a Woman’s Make-Up. (Copyright. ) Girls who have been wearing short hair for the past season or two are wearing long hair now. The change comes about in less than a day, and is quite miraculous to one who ‘| doesn’t understand the trick of the trade. If you stand upon one of those streets which boast the establishment of a fashionable hairdresser you will see a short-haired, curly-topped young woman enter the estab - lishment of Mme. Hairdresser and emerge half an hour later with a beautiful Psyche knot upon the back of her head ora lovely coll on the top. The transformation is accomplished some- thing in this wise: The girl’s hair is first curled tightly all over her head. It is curled so tightly that each r inglet looks like a little corkscrew. Then two or three of these little ringlets are gathered in a bunch on the top of the head and a small elastic is snapped around them. This makes a little bunch upon which to work. Next, another lot of ringlets is gathered at the back of the head and another elastic used to confine them. Small wire hairpins are then twisted around the curls and seesawed in and out of the hair until the head isa mass of curis and wire pins. Nowcomes the moment for the final and _ glorious achievement. Triumphantly the hair-dress- er brings fromthe very front of her case a Deautiful large coil, which she proceeds to pin closely upon the net work which she has made up upon the head. All around this coll go the pins, at every inch taking a stronger and firmer hold, until when the whole thing is completed it feels as if grappled to the head with hooks of steel. And yet, if it is well done, it is quite comfortable—much more comfortable than one would suppose. And the whole affair is, afterall, as con- venient an arrangement as a woman can The Way She Makes Up. have, for, by day, when she wishes to dis- play that mass which is a woman’s crown- ing glory, she has it in abundance; and by night, when she doesn’t want anything of the kind, behold! her hair ts short. A woman’s make-up is a fearful and won- derful thing because there is so much in it and so many drugs and chemicals are in- volved. Take, for instance, the simple pro- cess of manicuring and see to what an art it is reduced. First, the finger tips must be soaked in per- fumed water; then they must be carefully cleaned with an orange wood stick to help. After that comes the red paste, which must be thoroughly washed off. Following these is a pink powder, thena perfumed soap and afelt polisher. Lastly is the enamel, which is brightened by a brisk dash with a kid polisher. So much for the finger tips. Will anyone dare to reveal the rest of the toilet mys- teries? A TIMELY TOILET TALE. Dress for the Athletic Girl and Madame When “En Route.”’ Much of the pleasure of summer travel and Sports depends upon having garments per- fectly adapted to the different occasions. A dust cloak contributes wonderfully to the comfort when traveling, as loose, thin gar- ments can be worn under it, and yet the ap- . white soap. Society s The face massage is thus described by an authority: The face is first washed thor- oughly in soft tepid water with a honey- comb sponge well soaped with a creamy A warmer lather is then intro- duced, when a third and fourth follow till as hot as can be borne, The face being thus cleansed and heated, a yellow white cream comprising soothing emolu- ments is rubbed in, the whole surface gently but firmly masseed, the lines being carefully rubbed in an op- posite direction. This friction, if capably done, tends to restore muscular power to any tissues wasted by illness or other causes, giving the becoming rounded con- tour. Now the face is well rinsed in scented water, removing any particles of grease, then it is steamed by a vaporizer, the fumes of which exhale a fragrant tonic water, which can be made in various kinds to suit different skins and their requirements. A soft towel should always be used in wiping the skin and a cooling powder being applied it will be found that the complexion has during the process acquired a fairer ap- pearance, while it is soft and cool to the touch. A well-known social authority of the Metropolis writes the Sunpar Post-Dis- PATOH that the very latest fad in the flower line is for the gentlemen of fashion to wear boutonniers of the pretty simple corn lower in their coats, while the ladies carry great clusters of the blue flowers in their hands, or what is more modest still wear large bunches of them as their corsage decorations. This sweet field flower so loved by the great Kaiser did not come at once into prominence as would have been supposed at the time of his death, when the field flowers were placed near the dying sovereign as the blossoms he loved best, on accuunt of the tender reminiscences wound about them, when asa child his mother had dur- ing the time of flight and trouble made wreaths of the corn flowers for them to dis tract the royal little ones from the pangs of hunger which they were enduring. But after all this time the old Kaiser’s favorite flower has crept into favor across the ocean, and now it is the flower of all others that is the chosen craze for the belles and beaux of Gotham, and of course will soon be adopted in St. Louis. When you come home tired and heated from down town excursions, if you would feel refreshed when you have gotten into your neglige—bathe your face well with tepid water—all water not chilled with ice is tepid now—and then apply all over your face, throat and brow some alcohol and bengoine, which has been largely diluted with water. The feeling will be one of delicious coolness, and besides the luxury of feeling which the application brings, it will subdue all inflammation and Irritation of the skin. Another thing let me remind you, not to forget to drop ammonia in you baths; it is most refreshing and in- vigorating, as well as cooling by the per- fect cleansing process. Try both these hints and see if you do not send mea little note of thanks for the reminders. Apple-green brocade formed the main part ofa handsome imported gown. The skirt opened at the side to show a magnif- cent piece of antique floral brocade ona cream ground interthreaded with silver, which lined the sides ofthe green silk, so that it showed ina different aspect as the wearer moved. It was entirely cut on the cross and on the front over horizontal rows of narrow 1 ace, headed by a series of puffings of the lace ag they woreit in the time of Louis XV. The bodice hada front of the brocade, the rest of green; the sleeves were merely drapery lace and at the top of the bodicethe lace had been drawn in careless fashion so that it rested on the skin. The whole style recalls the dresses worn by the belles whose beauty Sir Peter Lily has handed down to us. According to Harper's Magazine for June, the satirist will find abroad no more the American girl of the old type whom he con- tinues to describe. The knowing and fas- cinating creature has changed her tactics and arbitrary manners entirely, and the change has reacted on American society. The mother has come once more to the front, and even if she is obliged to own to 45 years to the census-taker, she has again the position and the privileges of the bloom ing woman of 30. Her daughters wan meekly and with downcast expectant eyes, and waitin modesty for a sign from their mother’s will—no more flashing independ- ence on the side of the daughter. An English authority on deportment says that manners are deteriorating and that the dancing of the present day is deplorable. For the past four or five seasons, the waltz has monopolized the programme at every smart ball and now people are getting tired of it. Square dances take up half the programme at State balls, though on ac- count of the Prince of Wales’ infirmities. The Princess is fond of dancing, but she has become too lame to waltz. The Duchess of Leinster and the Marchioness of Granby are counted the two most brilliant dancers among our English aristécracy. There are few good dancers among men,as only about 5 percent of the men learn dancing. Country costumes are chiefly made of home spun, but what swell affairs they are. One of brown tweed may be made witha mod- erately long double-breasted coat worn over a white double-breasted waistcoat. The well-hung skirt which has no foundation has a macintosh casing around the the edge and nobby gaiters are made to complete the suit. White buckskin, or tan doeskin are the newest materials for waist- coats, and can be worn with any kind of goods. Some are double-breasted and rather open, while others are buttoned up to the throat and finished with a plain round white buckskin collar. An elaborate but withal a dainty Paris costume for a child is modeled in this man- ner. The skirt, whichis slightly gathered, of gray jean de sole, trimmed with an em- broidery of gold on a foundation of pink faille, embroidered with gold and open over a Louis XIV. waitstcoast of pink faille, the embroidery of it also of gold. The sleeves are of pearl gray jean de sole, trimmed with lapels of faille, with gold embroidery. With this is worn a white hat of straw, trimmed with coques of pearl gray and pink. Pearl gray gloves and boots of pearl gray, with pink dots complete the pretty costume, The coat bodices are new in form and be- coming. They are mostly made in cloth, and dissimilar fromthe skirt as in the case of one of heliotrope and blue shot, the stripe yellow. The coat was heliotrope, with two long untrimmed tabs at the back. It had a vest like a shirt and a blue and black sash, which was a daring French innova- tion. Prettier, however, was a pale tinted heliotrope cloth coat embroidered with fes- toons of blue and gold, having true lovers’ knots at intervals. It opened loosely over a full chiffon front. Very flower-like in effect isanew Paris ball gown. The short train is of pale violet satin, faced back with white and arranged to open over a petticoat of palest yellow, the beautiful shades being repeated exactly in the deep fringe of yellow and violet cro- cuses and pure white snowdrops, which, together with long river grasses, are used by way of trimmings in a kind of festooned garland around the hem of the skirt: The bodice is bordered by deep basques of lace, the lace draperies being headed by a fringe- like garland of the same spring flowers. Worth is bringing back the bright aniline mauve. An effective exampleisa mauve evening gown made of rich silk, and the skirt throughout entirely cut on the cross. The selvedge shows in front, and down one side there isa broad handsome trimming of point de Venise, interthreaded here and there with gold, the pattern véry fine, and onthe other this same trimming formsa series of lines across. The back was gored and trained. The bodice was made high and the waist was outlined with folds of sil- ver gray satin; this same gray filling is in high to the throat, the junction of the two materials being adorned with the same wide rose point, the back forming two long tabs on the basque. Signatures in gold area decidedly novel idea which will probably develop intoa sep- arate branch of the jeweler’s industry. Handsome lace pins are made out of a thin sheet of gold, the design of which is the signature of the fair one by whom the brooch is worn. The signature is clipped from the end of a letter or other source and handed to the designer, whocarefully ex- amines it through a good magnifier until he gets a perfect idea of its characteristics and the possibilities of developing effects. Then with a thin sheet of gold in his hand and a delicate pair of nicely tempered scis- sors, he reproduces the signature on the precious metal in a short time, You lovers of asparagus, let me breathe an airy truth in your appreciative ear that will make you happy: An asparagus eater’’ is a London invention which will delight the asparagus-eating public, who shrink from taking the vegetable in their fingers—save on very private occasions— and who recognizes that dissection ruins the delicate favor. The asparagus can be lifted one at a time to the mouth by this lit - tle instrument, which resembles somewhat a small pair of sugar tongs ora bon-bon **lifter.*’ It can be manufactured with any spoon pattern handle to match the service of the plate. If you observe our chic and dainty belles examining attentively their pretty hands in pub lic do not accuse them of going against the rules of Chesterfield or of undue van- ity, either. In looking at her pretty hand ma delle is sim ply finding time as it goes. In prosaic words, she is looking at her watch, for now the wheels within wheels of the time-table of fashion dectees that the wheels of time be also placed in the ring worn on the hand, and now the most deli- cate little watches, mounted in the form of a ring, are popularamong the high fashion- ables, Last Sunday I saw a little girl, She was aslight, brown-curled child with big eyes, and her frock of fawn-colored cashmere with straight and simple, and yet carried sugges- tions of days that differed widely from our 4 own days in its pullings out’’ of green about waist and yoke and sleeves. because I like to look at them. There was a very gay and bright little fete the other even- blossoms, It was sort of pour The sisters were like apple buds them- selves, for though one was dark and the other fair, the pink and white they wore seemed to become their dimpled: cheeks equally. Their frocks were made alike and were simple as frocks could be, yet in every way suggestive of the spring time season. Fach was a straight slip of faint pink wash silk, with laceat throat and sleeves, and a line of ribbon rosettes starting on the shoulder and running to the waist ana then down upon the skirt almost toits hem. Bach rosette was fashioned quaintly to resemble an apple blossom, in pink and white, and the flowers ofthe fete were worn in their hair and carried in their mother’s hand. There was a child of perhaps s years whom I noticed a few days ago in one of the big dry good stores. Her mother was matching something, and there stood the patient mite inanempire frock of a dull beige colored cashmere with a deep flounce at the bottom, about which ran ruche and heading of bunched ribbon loops of pale dilue. Her ribbon sash tied under her arm pits and hung in ends on the left side. The soft, short, loose waist came up over a guimpe of white muslin dotted with blue, and epaulets of muslin without the dots were plaited on the shoulders and brought round in fans to meet at the points of the shallow v of the waist in front and behind. These epaulets were quaintly embroidered and gave the effect of a little pelerine. The full sleeves were brought into cuffs at the wrists, these being headed with ribbon ruchings. A wide, fiat hat of beige-colored straw went appro- priately enough with the dress, and was trimmed with blue corn flowers and rosettes of narrow blue velvet ribbons. The small girl whose mother promotes her to straw hats should be very happy, for those of drawn silk or muslin are heavily burdened with things meant as ornaments, but usually far enough from being ornamental. Silk pompons are pretty, when the fancy of the trimmer can confine itself to anything 30 A Girl's Fete Dress. simple, but ostrich plumes reckoned by the half dozen are more common and are 80 mixed with flowers and lace fullings and ribbon puffings that a hat top comes to look as if in joke somebody had sat down and said: *‘*Now come and see how much and how many I can put on.’’ The children’s outfits that are being pre- pared with so many happy thoughts of a broidery in outline. gray cashmere worked with deep e silk.

Substitution of Musical Ohimes for the Historic Dinner Bell—Ingeniously Con- trived Articles of Furniture Which Have Varied Uses. The subtle ingenuity of the feminine mind is never exhibited with greater versatility than in the invention of home-made adornments for the house. The real pleasure of producing beautiful ef- fects, ata minimum outlay, and from mate- rials of no intrinsic value, is one of the de- lights not often enjoyed by therich. The satisfaction lies in the feeling that one has the power of creating things; that opposing circumstances have been forced to do one’s will, and that one has seized the doles of a niggardly fate and masterfully made them over into the things of one’s tasteor desire. The class of materials that is employed has no limitations. There is perfect freedom to choose the materials best adapted to the pur- pose, regardless of price or original use, the only thing required being the sultability of the article to the way in which it is employed and the achievement of an artistic effect. Wrapping paper has been used to cover the walls, and the soft, creamy tone of the light shade was prettily finished by a frieze of the rough, dark brown paper. Blue jeans has deserted the country, and come to town to live, or else gone to the mountain or seaside resorts, to full an honor- able position as carpeting, window curtains, portieres and furniture covers. Long curtains are made of cream or yellow linen, with broad frieze bands embroidered in bold design with heavy flax. Chamois cloth, described in last week’s SUNDAY Post-DisPaTcH, is used, in the wide make, for upholstering, for covering cusk - fons and for hangings. It is printed with cretonne designs, which harmonize perfectly with the soft tint of the material.

The glace or shot silks, however, are newer and are delightful to wear, as they feel so cool and pleasant to the touch, and the dust slips off easily. They come printed in effective designs consisting mostly of many lines. Alpacas are alwaysin favor for these gar- ments, as it shakes free of dust and is very light and inexpensive. The new style of printed alpacas is much used. Whatever the material, the garment should be made to reach the hem of the dress skirt, and should button all the way down.

CHARLES ERSKINE TO BEGIN A SUIT WHICH PROMISES REVELATIONS. Edwin Gould the President of the “Coal Companies and Missouri Pacific Off- cials Its Officers and Stockholders—The Rocky Branch Coal Oo.’s Efforts to Tap' the Missouri Pacifie—Jay Gould and the Missouri Coal Fields. Mr. Charles Erskine of Kansas City, Mo., left St. Louis last night for his home, aftera six weeks’ stay here. According to the story told by Mr. Erksine just before his departure, and supported m many of its most significant details by Juge Thos. J. Portisof St. Louis, his attorney, his experience in this city during that six weeks was per- haps as full of disappointment and of heart wearing delay as itis possibie for a man to undergo. Ending in total failure of accomplishing his object, as he did, the de- parture of Mr. Erskine was that of a busi- ness man who retires from before the ob- stacle of a stone wall with the hopeless feel. ing that the stone wall has shut him into a trap from which he can escape only by the surrender of all that he was endeavoring to save. If Mr. Erskine’s story of his present posi- tion, and of the circumstances leading up to that position is true he is one of many victims to a monopoly so complete that it cannot be resisted by individual effort with the faintest showing of success,and that threatens the most serious consequences to the industry of coal mining in large fleids of this State where the presence of coal is an apparent portion of the wealth of its citi- gens. If Mr. Erskine’s story is true, the majority against which he is so unfortunate as to de opposed is a corporate company known un- der the somewhat vague title of Coal Com- panies—mines located on Missouri Pacific and Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway systems, the headquarters of the Companies“ being on the ninth floor of the Equitable Buliding at Sixth and Locust streets, the general office headquarters of the Missouri Pacific Rallway system, owned by Jay Gould. If Mr. Erskine’s story is true the power of the Coal Companies to crush him or any other individual competitor from tits field of trade arises from the fact that the Coal Companies corporation is in reality the Missouri Pacific Ratlway system, engaged in the business of commercially supplying coal in violation of the law. If Mr. Erskine’s story ts true the whole machinery and vast transportation facilities of the Missouri Pacific Railway system, a common carrier and supposabiy a servant of the public, is being utitized to Kill all efforts toward competition with the coal compa- nies, and by drivingindividual corporations | | whereby he could get his coal to the Kansas from the field to swallow up a great interest which is enttreh distinct from the railroad inte rest. and which it was intended shouid be developed for the general good by the railroads, when their own charter rights were granted. TO BE DETERMINED IX THE COURTS. These promises are all dependent upon the truth of Mr. Erskine’s statement, in support of which he produces much documentary evidence. The question of veracity will be settled at an early date in the courts,to which Mr. Erskine has determined to carry the fight he is making now im his efforts to save cer- tain of his property from almost total sur- render and sacrifice. The contest in the courts will be one between Mr. Erskine and the Missouri Pacific Rallway Co. Its most important results are expected to be the development of facts showing the close connection between the Missouri Pacific Ran way Co. and the coal companies corpo- thereby hoping to receive the benefits of us- „ Being completed last September. When completed, application was at once made to the Missouri Pacific Rallway Oo. for a switch connection, under sec. 223, Re- Vised Statues of Missouri of 1989, giving the State Railroad Commissioners the power after being satisfied that the volume of business would be sufficient to approve of the connec- tion. Affidavit being flled with the board by the coal companyas to the amount of its business, the approval of the switch connec- tion was granted. Then began the negotia- tions with the Missouri Pacific to secure the connection. After several interviews and some correspondence with First Vice-Presi- Gent S. H. H. Clark of the Missouri Pacific, the latter decided that, with the approval of the engineer of the Missouri Fa- cific, the connection would be granted. Mr. Erskine has in his possession a letter signed by Mr. Clark, bearing date of Oct. 14, 1890, which he showed to a Post-DIsPaTCH re- porter, the letter stating that the plats, pro- files and estimates of the Missouri Pacific an- gineer, made aftera thorough examination of the work done by the coal company, were before him, and that the connection could de safely made, provided that the Rocky Branch Coal Co. paid all the expenses for grading and material excepting the switch-stand and frog of the actual connection. This the coal company agreed to do, but the understand- ing Was not carried out, for a reason at that time unknown to the coal company people. The affair took a new turn. Mr. Clark wrote to the State Railroad Commissioners that there were two reasons why the switch connection could not de made under sec. 2623 of the Revised Statutes. One of the ob- stacles was that of physical disabilities,’’ it being stated that the grade of the coal company’s switch was eight feet higher than the tracks of the Missouri Pacific road, a connection from such a grade being prohibited by law, owing to its menace of danger to the traveling public. This claim was advanced, Mr. Erskine states, in the face of Mr. Clark’s letter of Oct. 14, 1990, to the effect that the Missouri Pacific’s engineer had found the proposed switch connection asafe one, with a grade of but one and seven-tenths. The second obstacle raised was that the switch of the Rocky Branch Coal Co. was not a private switch, was in reality a connecting road of a common carrier, inasmuch as the coal company proposed to transport the output of other mines beside its own on those tracks. Should the coal company under this objection have been declared a ‘‘railroad,”’ it would still have — legal right to the switch conection with M un- der sec. 2026 of the Re have been obliged te own rolling stock, n sitating an expense for cars, etc., of about $100,000. This question Mr. Erskine was willing to have settied in the Sta : courts, but his first object was to get the connection with the Missouri Pacific road, and Nebraska markets on equal terms. — —̃ —A⸗hÿꝗ ration in the latter’s efforts to control the commercial coal trade of a territory reaching | missioners, into two States, and the manner in which a | great railroad system is used as an almost | irresistible lever in ‘‘freezing’’ competitors the coal company, the latter was notified | that the switch connection would be granted A significant feature of the legal proceed provided the coal company would enter into trom the field. ings will be that Mr. Erskime’s case will be handied by Judge Thos. J. St. Louis. Judge Portis was for years the General Attorney of the Missouri PacifiC Rallway system. He held that office when the Coal Companies corporation was organtzed ostensibly for the purpose of supplying the coal used by the Missouri Pacific system in its business as a railway. Portis of | RECONSIDERED BY THE BOARD. Under Vice-President Ciark’s representa- tions the State Board of Railroad Commis sioners reconsidered its approval of the Rocky Branch Coal Co.’s switch connection with the Missouri Pacific road, but still held that the volume of business was sufficient to warrant the connection. The result of the withdrawal of the board's approval relieved the Missouri Pacific of a forfeit of $500 per day imposed by law for every day that the switch connection should be dented to the Rocky Branch Coal Co. Mr. Erskine as- serts that it rendered possible all the delay that has since followed, and gave the Missouri Pacific road an advantage in the negotiations which they utilized tothe fullest extent, as shown by him in the following concluding facts of the ‘‘switch -connection’’ story. As soon as the Missouri Pacific had secured this action on the part of the Rallroad Com- which is not a final judgment, but was made only on Vice-President Ciark’s genera! statements subject to answer from a special agreement with the Missouri Pacific Rallway, to be drawn up by the general at- Several torney of the ratliroad company.

The first thing noticeab'e about this let- ter head, giving the names of officers of the “Coal Companies, sald Mr. Erskine, is that the name of the President is omitted, the list beginning with that of the Vice- President. The President of the ‘Coal Companies’ is Edwin Gould, son of Jay Gould of the Mis- sour! Pacific Railway Co. he name of the auditor of the ‘Coal Companies’ is also omitted. His name is C. G. Warner, and he is also the General Auditor of the Missouri Pacific Ratlway Co. One of the directors of the ‘Coal Com- panies’ is First Vice-President and General Manager 8. H. H. Clark of the Missouri Fa- cific Ranway Co. „Sec. 22 of art. 12 of the constitution of Missouri,’’ said Judge Portis on this point, ‘*states that officers of railway companies shall not be interested in other companies furnishing supplies of any kind to the said ratiroad companies. ** Another feature of that letter head, con- tinued Mr. Erskine, ‘‘is that it states at the last that the Mining Companies has a dally capacity of 500 cars. This is an advertise- ment of the coal trade of what the ‘Coal Com- panies’ can do toward supplying the de- mands of the trade. The ‘Coal Companies’ do handle coal commercially, entering into competition with all other coal miners, de- spite the fact that they are owned and con- trolled by the Missouri Pacific Railway. They sell coal in Kansas and Nebraska, end the Missouri Pacific agents at the different rail- way stations collect the coal bil just the same as they do freight bills. 88S We ae Here is an envelope of the ‘Coal Com- panies.’ In one corner it has the card of the companies and the name of General Man- ager R. M. McDowell. In the other corner it nas the initials R. R. B. meaning railroad business. In these envelopes the corre- spondence of the ‘Coal Companies’ with its commercial patrons is carried on as rallroad business free of postage to all points an the Missouri Pacific road. It shows that the business of the Coal Companies’ is the bust ness of the Missouri Pacific Railway Co. „Sec. 7 of art. 12 of the Constitution of Mis- sour said Judge Portis in discussing this point, ‘‘prohibits a railroad company en- gaging in any other business save that of discharging its own functions as a common carrier. ou will notice, resumed Mr. Erskine, that the letter-head of the Coal Com- panies’ contains a list of apparently separate and distinct companies. These companies have been bought prac- tically by the Missouri Pacific Rallway Co. under conditions very similar to those in which they hope to force me to sell ata sacrifice. They are supposed to be separate companies still. I know that the stock of every one of them is owned by Edwin Gould, one share each standing in the names of the necessary Officers and directors. Vice-Presi- Gent Clark of the Missouri Pacific road himself testified in the case of McGrew against the Missouri Pacific Rallway Co., for discrimination in freight rates shown by the Missouri Pacific to its own mines above Lexington, that he was, on the books, a stockholder of one of the mines, but that he had signed the transfer on the back of the stock certificate in biank and had no actual control of the stock. Yet he was an officer of the company by virtue of being a stockholder as required by law. The stock of the Coal Companies’ stands in the names of various officers and agents of the Missouri Pacific Railway Co. on the books, making them stockholders in the eyes of the law. Every share of that stock is in reality transferred to Edwin Gould, and those officers are holding office legally, even outside of the constitutional provision governing ral roads and railroad officials. Of all the mines named above, there are only two of the original stockhoiders of any of them now holding stock. These two are father and son, and they refuse to be frozen out because they own a controlling interest in one of the mines and can prevent such action. Al the rest of the original stockholders of every one of the lines named have been suc- Companies,’ as you will, is not always which they force do i (GHAI TE i 7 f pleted, was eight feet higher than our grade, and con neet jon could not be made under the law. When the coal company secured the approval of the State Railroad Commis- sioners Of the switch connection, they had us at their mercy, as we would have had to pay a forfeit of $500 per day for every day we denied them the switch connection had their claim been good. It was for this reason that the questions of physical disability and of their being common carriers were raised. Mr. Erskine is a disappointed man. He tried to sell his coal mine to Mr. Gould and failed to do so, which accounts largely for his bit- terness against us. We are now ready to give the Rocky Branch Coal Co. a switch con- nection whenever it complies with the terms of our special agreement.

But the Missouri Pacific is not using its power to crush out competition along ites line. to the statement that officers of the Missouri Pacific are officers and stockholders in the ‘Coal Companies,’ what of it? We claim that under the law they have a right to be such. All other statements of Mr. Erskine’s we deny. He has rushed into print to create a public sentiment in his favor. It is only u to Mr. Erskine to note that he had previously stated that he did not ask of the Missouri Pacific the privilege of a cide track, but only of the switth-connection. He also said that the question of the Rocky Branch Coal Co. handling freight on its switch for other mines had not been raised and would not cut any figure in the endeavor to secure a switch- connection. As to his offer to sell his mine, Mr. Erskine stated that he had placed afigure on it after being requested to do so by General Manager and Vice-President Me Dowell of the Coal Companies,’’ and had gone to New York and seen Edwin Gould con- cerning the matter. Young Gould had want- ed him to sell at such a sacrifice that he could not bring himself to don, and had left New York with his mission a failure. Latest Out.

The quest ion of improvements in the North- ern portion of the city has been agitated con- siderably of late by several associations or- ganized in that section for mutual help and protection.

A middle-aged Missouri Pactfic clerk, who for some years has been supporting a wife and two children on his salary of a month, and making both ends meet without going into débt, two weeks ago got passes for the whole family and bundied them of to spend the summer in the mountains about Wagon | Wheel Gap, In Colorado, where he had relatives. They had been there barely three days when his wife, her constitution weakened by the incessant toll of some years in a city, mountain fever, and gave way so rapidiy that the day after her husband got a letter from her telling of her arrival he received a telegram announcing her death.

He must £0 out and get them at once and must have the body of his wife brought home to lie in Bellefontaine by the side of ber parents and ber first-born chud. To do these things he must bave money, and his month’s salary was gone. He was not used to money lenders and their ways, but he had a vague idea that he could enough for his purpose by mortgaging the furniture in their littie home, which they had collected, onearticle at a time, during the years of their wedded lite.

NEW TROUBLES ARISE IN THE CAMP OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. Faction Fights Between the Fifer and the Hunt Wings—Adjt.-Gen. Vance’s Seal Removed—Ways of the Printer Expert —Oapital Topics. SPRINGFIELD, III., June 27.—In view of the bright prospects for the Democrats in II- nois, the party in power is becoming nervous and irritable. The Sstate Administration party, or what is called the Fifer party, is beginning to draw the lines, and they pro- pose to notify the Hunt party that for the present, anyway, the party in power wants no suggestions as to how things shall de run. Yesterday all of the ‘‘Brigadiers’’ connected with the State militia were surprised to receive notices to the ef- fect that after July 1, 1891, Adjutant-General Vance would be Adjutant-General no longer, that after that date, they would report to and obey Adjutant-General Jasper N. Reece, now of this city. The reasons as figured out by the Demo- crats forthis sudden move on the part of Gov. Fiferarethat Adjutant-General Vance hafis from the same county, Edgar, as Attor- ney-General Hunt, who imagines he will in- terferein his own behalf and prevent the nomination of Gov. Fifer. That Adjutant- General Vance is much too friendly with the Hunt faction and the Chief Executive is en- ttrely too good a soldier, even if he wasa private, to go into battle with an ‘‘un- friendly Indian’’ holding a high up position in the military forces of the State.Gen. Vance is not one of Gov. Fifer’s appointees. He was put into that position by John M. Hamilton when his blonde accidency happened to squat in the chairof the Chief Executive.

Two years ago Gov. Fifer appointed one Don Romeo Frazer to the position of State Printer Expert.

The laws were bound and then found to be full of errors. The auditor’s report and the report of the Board of Equalization were in bad condition. The insurance men mutinied because the ty- pography of the auditor’s reports made their affidavits show that they had sworn falsely. The books were taken to pieces, expert help was hired to remodel the reports, and the Secretary of State was obliged to issue a volume of errata at a cost of several hundred dollars to the tax-payers of the State, This is but a sampie of the good-looking Don’s peculiarities as printerexpert.

It is said that there are no two secretaries in the city who keep their books alike. Each one pursues his own plan, let that be or bad, complex or simple. It is hoped that one of the outcomes of this co-operative meeting will be the general adoption of some one plan which will be accepted as the stand- ard for keeping accounts. Mr. Davis, one of the promoters of this meeting, expects to make a point about the injury to building associations which must follow the advertise- ment of enormous and utterly unattainable profits, whereby the public is lead to expect much greater returns than it is possible for any association to earn. The effort is also to be made to prevent adventurers from at- tempting to organize associations without the proper business and financial backing, as it is claimed that ventures of this Kind are Ua ble to result injuriously to the more reli- able institutions. SECRETARIES’ NOTES. The Phoentx Building & Loan Association, A. R. Schollmeyer, Secretary, at a special meeting held Thursday afternoon, passed on loans amounting to over $10,500. This associa- tion, although only six months old, has over $20,000 loaned out, and with those loans passed on at the last meeting will have a grand total of $30,500. The directors of the Phoenix are all busi- ness men and number among them Benj. Lynds, T. C. Hamilton, August Kern, Wm. B. Ittner and A, J. Naughton, C. I. Osgood says a meeting of the sub- scribers to the stock of Uncle Sam's Building & Loan Association was held in the offices of the St. Louis Furniture Board of Trade, 79 Laclede Building, yesterday afternoon and the following Board of Directors elected, viz: R. E. Lasher, E. Lucas, G. Wolf, Geo. Holt- grewe, Hon. J. W. Drabelle, J. H. Holman, W. M. Anderson, Louis Renard, E. V. Kyte, O. G. Osgood, Editor of the Furniture News; T. C. Hamilton, Otto Aude and J. H. Kentnor. At a subsequent meeting of the directors J. H. Holman was elected President; R. E. Lasher, Vice-President; Louis Renard, Treas- urer, and H. 8. Tuttle, Secretary. The Asso- ciation will incorporare for $600,000 on the serial plan. The Mutual Benefit, Sampel Bowman, Sec- retary, at its meeting last Monday evening, approved applications for the loan of $3,600 on fifteen shares, at 25 percent, for a mem- ber, who is building six flats on the north side of Cozzens street, just west of Sarah. These flats will bring a rental of $64 a month when finished, and as this member’s dues are $41.50 per month (including dues, interest and premium), he will have a first-class in- vestment. CORRESPONDENTS’ DEPARTMENT. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: The other day a gentleman came into my office and said he had figured and figured on bullding associations until he walked in his sleep, and was still figuring and could not understand how a loan could be made at a less cost to the borrower than an outside loan; a friend had told him that he could bor- row at 8 percent interest from a private party and save money. I merely asked the how? and he Says he: w for the estimated life of a $300 association—well, the interest will de $240 a year or $2,400 in ten years. Well, a building association will cost me $3,000 in ten years. I requested him to add on his principal of $3,000 to the interest ($2,400), making a total of $5,400. He stopped, said no more, but took ten shares of stock and signed his application for a loan. A. R. SCHOLLMEYER. Peters at French Market has them—ice cold melons. Telephone 2203.

Could 8 ‘may Age for yourself. 3 me the measures of time were forgotten. I was lost in the satisfaction of every faculty which his mere presence afforded me, and unconsciously exultant in the fact that for the moment I had no wish ungratified. It ts very delightful to be in the company ofan attractive friend who looks intense approval of your every word or action, and it is only under those circumstances that a woman shows to her best. Her eyes bright- en, her face glows with animation, her voice becomes soft and wooing, and a thousand dainty airs and graces; be- fore unseen, come to life in the warm sun of personal admiration. For e time, she grows pretty, becatuse she is led so. Hap- piness and love are truly the greatest beau- tiflers. I was sitting in a low ‘‘rocker,’’ and he had drawn a seat near, where he sat, lean- ing toward me, his elbows comfortably dis posed on his knees. T brought his face and hands very close wn I rocked forward. It was amusing to watch his gay, careless face warm and soften as I moved toward him. He reached out his hand and took from my fingers the flower with which they toyed. He played with it while we chatted in half-finished sentences, com- pleted with laughter and glances and light sighs. The rose slipped from Ms fingers to my lap. I picked it up and he tried to take it. I said ‘‘No;’’ he, coaxingly, Oh, please do.’’ We both held the flower and our fin- gers touched. My chair swayed lightly and as my fingers closed and the stem of the rose receded he took a firmer hold and one strong finger pressed mine, while his eyes closely watched my face. ‘‘No, you shall not; it is mine.’’ I looked a laughing defiance, but a vague fear of him seized me. I you won't give it me, Ishall have to take it. His strong, warm hands masterfully closed over my trembling fingers, the eager young face, still smiling, but with a forceful look, drew dan- gerously near. The lights swam before my eyes. I sank back in my chair, The poor rose was hope- lessly crushed. II. A girl may be laughing and gay, so safe in her maidenly armor that the gaze ofa man’s eager eyes oreven a quick pressure of the fingers may be met with a defiant and saucy smile, but how those three little words, ‘‘Be my wife,’’ can change itall. He has dared to realize heras woman, to boldly ask her to acknowledge the existence of a world of emo- tions, whose very possibility for herself she had never dared admit,even in secret dream- ings. Sheis overcome with shame at the thought; her cheeks burn, her drooping head is turned away; for very shame she cannot turn to look her resentment at this humilia- tion. He has dared to push aside the pretty play and shams of social life, that have taught her toignore, to obliterate the fact that her beauty was made for more than mere admiration, andto challenge a hidden, stronger nature, of which she, herself, was only half aware. There came a time when those fateful words reached my earand nature seemed stunned at the sudden revulsion of the world they suggested. I lost the power of thought and motion. only the dull consciousness remained of the terrible question asked me and my perfect inability to make answer. I could not have spoken, at the peril of my life. I felt the heat of a hand on my back She Guarantees That They Will Interest Every Girl and She Invites the Criticisms: of Her andert!

THIRTEEN CHINAMEN BEHEADED. Description of a Terrible Soene Enacted Near Hong Kong, China. The news columns of the Post DIsPATCH early in June contained a brief mention of a wholesale Chinese execution just outside of Hong Kong. An artist of the Pali Mall Budget furnishes a more detailed account and a sketch of the horrible scene in the following: The prisoners, having been landed, were placed in line on their knees a few feet apart. Whether, as is generally understood, these prisoners were drugged, is not certain, but the majority seemed to evince but little in- terest in what was going on. One certainly had the appearance of being drugged, or else was paralyzed with fear. He was carried ashore ina basket, and on being placed in line on the beach fell forward, burying his face inthe sand. The victims having been arranged amidst much beating of drums, slowly from the far end of the line appeared the executioner, pre- ceded by two trumpeters.

Carey, Manhattan Athletic Club of New York, won the final heat and the race easily by four yards. Time, 101-5s. The first race was won by his clubmate, Remington, Carey took the second heat by three yards. In the three-mile run, Remington wor the first heat by two yards, after a hardstru gle. He also won the final heat and the race by eight yards. Time, 518. Kibble White won the mile race by one yard. Time, 4m 28 3-5s. Young. M. A. C., retired from the four- mile race after coveringa mile. Molton, an Englishman, won the race in 20m and 53 3-5s, In the hammer throwing event, which J. C. Queckberner, M. A., C. won, there were ten contestants. Malcolm W. Ford, M. A. O., and Bulger of Dublin, tied in the long jump. Distance, twenty feet and four inches. In the shot putting contest, Barry of Cork won. Distance, forty feet and eight inches. Queckberner’s record was thirty-seven feet and ten inches. Nicoll, M. A. O., was third in the three-mile walk. The track was heavy, owing to rain early inthe day. The weather cleared, how- ever, and the games were favored with sun- shine. The Field to-day, commenting on the show- ing made by the American visitors thus far, livan’s own lips that he had retired from the ring, Slavin came back to New York and said nothing about his being able to ‘‘lick’’ the Bostonian. He met Kilrain and beat him fairly. Then Sullivan announced his will- ingness to fight again. Slavin nad made preparations to return to England when this announcement was made. But he waited for Sullivan’s backers until a few hours before he sailed. They did not put in an appearance. Slavin stated that he would return to America in the fall and a match could not have been completed before then anyway, because Sullivan is under contract to go to Australia. The question as to whether Sullivan can or cannot whip the An- tipodean cuts no figureat present. In the opinion of the best critics Sullivan will be the winner of the proposed big match. Whatever the outcome may be Slavin has certainly proven himself to bea first-class fighter and a manly fellow. Give him credit for that. THE MATCH WITH PADDY RYAN. Sullivan appears to be very much in the ring. He told Paddy Ryan the other day that he would spar six rounds witb him on his re- turn from the Antipodes. He also announced that he would take a crack at Peter Jack- son before meeting Slavin, if the black was Willing. Ryan could be disposed of in two minutes, but Jackson might last some time with the big fellow. Duncan Harrison, who went to Australia a month or more ago, must be in an unhappy frame of mind just now, at the prospects of losing his star even for a few months. But if Sullivan defeats Slavin he can go back to the stage and make barrels of money. The big fellow’s exhibition with Corbett in San Francisco the other night did not please the crowd. It was quite tame ac- on Thursday. BICYCLE AND ATHLETIC CLUB. At no time in the history of this club has the number of applicants for membership been as large as it is now and to date there are no less than thirty-five applications on file te be acted on at the July 7 meeting. It is confidently expected that at least fifty men will be admitted at this meeting. The new hand-book of the club is in great demand and the edition will soon be exhausted. A Membership Committee of ten have been appointed to look sharp after recruiting and are doing good work. J. A. St. John is doing yeoman service for the club and has promised to leave nothing undone to make it the leading organization in the city. The club will be well represented at Carthage by a number of fast men who will be in charge of E. C. Platt. The club-house is delightfully cool on even the hottest evenings, and there has been no let up in the heavy attendance. L. A. W. RENEWAL SEASON. With all that has been said and written about the coming meet of the League of American Wheelmen it is surprising that to date, less than 60 per cent of the local mem bers have renewed their membership in the organization. The year just closed has wit- nessed an increase in the Missouri Division of from 350 to 640 members, and with the hearty co-operation of the members, the officers hope to make it 800 or even 1,000 during the next year. Thiscanonly be accomplished, however, if every present member renews bis membership promptly. L. A. W. TROUBLES. NEw Tonk, June 27.—The outlook for a wrangle at the national meeting of the L. A. W. at Detroit is not so bright as it wasa short The dogs entered are better paired than ever before. Great interest centers in the con- test between Mr. Burgess’ fawn dog, Spring, and Mr. Rothweli’s brindle, Belfast, who carried offthe honors at the Thanksgiving Day meeting. Bob Rothwell has charge of the course and has completed arrangements to furnish the spectators both real and arti- ficial coursing. ON A BICYCLE. Allan W. Swan’s Long Journey to Prove His Devotion. MEXICO, Mo., June 27.—Allan W. Swan, who is traveling from New Bedford, Mass., to California on a bicycle, arrived in Mexico at 8 o’clock last evening. He was somewhat fatigued, having traveled over seventy-five miles that day, going from Clarksville to Bowling Green and Louisiana and then to Mexico. Mr, Swan left Massachusetts Sunday morning, May 2, for San “Francisco, where he is due Sept. 16 and where a week later he is to marry a beautiful young heiress. Although Mr. Swan is possessed of considerable wealth the young lady,before she would consent to become his wife, requested him to demonstrate. his love for her in some other way than mere verbal avowal. Al- though he was convinced of her seriousness, he treated the matter as a joke and suggested that he would swim the ocean and jump off the Eiffel tower if it would convince her of his love. Other suggestions, the accomplish- ment of which were equally impossible, were made by him in the hope that a little ridicule would induce her to change her notion. Her mipd was made up. She was no ordinary girl to be caught by a few sweet words. He finally hit upon First race, Inaugural scramble, purse $125, of which $25 to second, forall ages, six fur- longs. J. Weeks’ b. e. Capt.

At present the road above referred to is simply an ill kempt trail, along which are strewn the wrecks of busted vehicles and the bones of people whose necks have been dis- located in trying to ride over them, and who have been left alone to die. Though a public road of great importance, very few people drive over it unless under the influence of liquor. There are places on this road where mountain springs soak up through the road- bed, and have done so for centuries, while the roadmaster has been waiting for them to dry out, The result is that a stoneboat is the only vehicle which will safely make the trip.

A neighbor told me that Hectic had the colic, but when I put my hand on the little hot stomach of my steed he kicked me across the plaza and into a bed of cacti.

They made friends with astonishing rapidity, and there seemed to be little or no feeling against them because they wore Northerm uniforms. There is no doubt, however, that they were treated good naturedly be- cause somebow they managed to convey the idea that they were *‘ privileged characters. They were not in a hurry to leave. As Shans ley often said afterwards, they took their time about it because there was no necessity for undignified haste.

Iwas saying the other day that aftera pretty general knowledge of North Carolina for five or six years I was astonished to notice that there had been no burgiaries within my / : Am Free From Burglars. observation. This is remarkable, especially to me, for I have lived where a burglary was not uncommon, and wherel have suffered myself, having lost a silver plated butter Gish in that way eight years ago, also what butter we had in the house at the time, it being concealed in the butter-dish. I shota burglar eleven years ago who was breaking into my residence, but he had only 60 cents on his person at the time, and even that the Coroner took away from me on the following day. The burglar has it all his own wayin the North, but here in North Carolina, where the mosquito never lives and the politician never dies, burglary is a capital offense. All burglars over 14 years of age are executed. Thistendstoturn the at- tention of bright young burglars towards politics, I never felt so secure before in my life. I leave my large massive, solid silver watch on the escritoire every night now, whereas I used to put it underneath the mattress. It is & very comfortable feeling, I assure you. Of course chickens are not so safe, especially during a colored revival. I do not wish to be misunderstood regarding this matter, but I was told on the start by a devout Christian of the Caucasian race that if I cared anything for my ‘‘boilers’’ I would watch them most carefully dur- ing a colored frevival, for at that time the more ‘‘earnest’’ negroes were so all tore up in their minds that they could not work at all during the day, and the revival took all the night, or nearly so. Therefore, when the pangs of hunger and the rumblings and retchings of a sin-sick soul had been preying on an ordinary colored man for a week or ten days he was hollow clean into the ground, and his better judgment didn’t stand any chance whatever. I got some chickens when I first came here. Some ofthem had cholera, but I did not Know It at first. Quite a number of chickens were almost immediately stolen, but three of them were not. They seemed to be spared as monuments of African mercy, Finally I found that it was because they had cholera. Come down and see us some time. I don’t mind killing the last heninthe house when company comes. F. 5.—Bring some butter with you; ours might keep you awake nights. But we were speaking of the horse—man’s best friend. I began fifteen years ago by owning a little pack jack ange Boomerang. He cost me $8, but I was po. and could not buy a horse. Also it was unpopular to get one in any other way. If you got one in any other way, in the language of the vigllance Jasked him if we could not get them up again. I would do all that I could to boom them through the press and on the street. But he looked at me sadly, and I could see the tears gathering in his eyes. Then he turned away,and Icould hear him mutter some- thing to himselfin German. I donot under- stand German readily, but I would not be the man he was talking about for anything in the world. Later, when I had taken the crape off the stable door and had waited a year after the death of Hectic—for he could not eat any- thing but kumiss with his artificial teeth, and so died about six weeks after his mind falled Iboughtan Indian pony called Hiawatha. Hiawatha is still alive, though very few of his owners are. He belonged to the Siwash tribe and had a brand on him which was the est of Old Soiled Nose, the chief of the Yaps. Hiawatha came into our family well rec- ommended by one of the pleasantest extem- poraneous speakers I ever saw. His home was on Fifty-eighth street, New York City, and he dealt in horses just because he loved them. He saidthat Hiawatha knew more than lots of men who held office, and I never saw &@ Man use such an effort to control him- self as this man did when he said good-by to Hiawatha and took the terry for his wretched and lonely home. Fortunately, Hiawatha did not kin any of our family, because we have a good physi- olan, and he can save any one after many other doctors have given them up. So then Isent the pony back to the owner to board. I forgot to say that a neighbor of mine borrowed Hiawatha to ride to hounds once and has not spoken tome since. I sent. the animal back to board at $12 a month, and left orders with the man to sell, but of course at $12 a month for plain table d’hote board the sale hangs fire and seems to drag a good deal. Last week this man wrote me that the bill ‘was $84, and that Hiawatha had a real cun- ning little mule colt. He said that society was all by the ears about it. Also the colt. Iwent over there tosee Hiawatha soon after. He could not look me in the face. I think this shows distinctly that as a race the Indian cannot be thoroughly civilized. The man says that this incident has hurt his stable a good deal, and many of the lum tum, ashe calls them, the real pate de foie gras of New York, refuse to send him their boarders. I said I was sorry, but would leave him and the co-respondent to fight it out to- gether. I then did him all the injury I could without filling his grave with Limburger cheese. I made hima present of Hiawatha, and wringing his hand I came away. He is now trying to hush the matter up, but the Indian Commissioner has his name. The Siwash tribe is said to be preparing for war, and an Indian outbreak is prophesied, which threatens toeclipse the great Eczema out- break of 1876, BILL NYE. THE BRIDGE POLICEMAN.

A Strolling Bend. ~ wrong side of the Rappahannock. They were coolly marching toward Freder- icksburg. This strange spectacle had evi- dently attracted the attention of the general in command. He stopped, called fora field glass and focussed it on the red legs. Alto- gether unconscious of the scrutiny they con- tinued in motion, every step taking them nearer to the place which it seemed sheer Insanity to approach. The field glass was passed from one member of the staff to another, but it was evident that neither McDowell nor his aides could come to any satisfactory conclusion about the matter, so they apparently gave up the problem and rode on. A few moments later, however, one of McDowell’s orderlies appeared on Fal- mouth Heights with instructions to the effect that the rollofthe Fighting Fourteenth be called immediately. This, of course, would show not only whether any of the Red Legs were missing, but who were the delinquent and foolhardy men. So the roll was called. It is needless to say that the affair became more complicated than ever when it was found that every name had been responded to. No- body Knew what to make of it. For some time the mystery remained unsolved, The Red Legs seemed to have caused as much commotion in Fredericksburg asthey did on their way there. Quite a crowd of people awaited their approach and when they disappeared aM, Eng: 2 — i ch (= Their Arrival Caused a Sensation. from sight it was manifest that their arrival had caused something of a sensation. Be- fore nightfall the Fourteenth had moved into camp and every member of the com- mand wag theorizing about the strange spectacle of the morning. The men who had least to say about it belonged to Company 6. When they were asked for an opinion they theorized as readily as anyone, but professed to beas much mystified as the remainder of the regt- ment. Thenight was well advanced when John Shanley and Butt Riley, both members ot Company G, strolled into camp, attract- [ ing, as they did so, as little attention as pos- sible, They were soon surrounded by a group of curious comrades. It was soon an open secret ull over the camp that they were the owners of the red legs which Fredericks He Told of the Adventures, fluence, but where he took rank as the most able of. the lieutenants of his leader. When he was mustered out of earthly harness, an event which occurred not more than a year ago, he was Brooklyn’s City Clerk, and was regarded as one of the most astute men who ever held the office. He left quite a handsome fortune and his popularity was unbounded. Those who knew him in war days speak of him as a man who had the tenderness of a woman and the heart of a lion. Riley and he returned to camp feeling. as though they had virtually had the refusal of a city, and the entire regi- ment was proud of its pair of adven- turers. In the morning Shanley was sent out with a working party. This was all the punishment he received and it turned out to be a good thing for him. He devel- oped qualifications which made his assist- ance particularly valuable to the officer in charge of the party, and later on he was transferred to the engineers. There he won the regard of the General, who had surveyed his red legs through the fleld-giass, and the result was that he became a lieutenant, Responsibility cured his partiality for es- capades. Riley, who was also a Brooklynite, returned to the City of Churches after the war. He died some years before Shanley, and the City Clerk held his hand as he passed GEO. F.
