Lowpow, Jan. 16.—The funeral of the Duke of Clarence and Avondale, heir presumptive to the British throne, has been set for Wednesday next. The body of the Duke was removed from Sandringham to the parish church this morning. The Prince and Prin- cess of Wales, Prince George of Wales, Prin- cess Victoria and Maud of Wales and Prin- cess Victoria Mary of Teck, showed the most intense grief. The Princess of Wales, with her customery self sacrifice, strove to con- deal her own deep sorrow in her effort to console the others, She was particularly tender to and solicitous of Princess Victoria Mary, the Duke’s intended bride, and placed her arm about the Princess, and amid her own sobs, whispered words of consola- tion to her. The Princess of Wales and Prin- cess Victoria Mary are recovering somewhat from the shock of the Duke’s death, and are becoming more resigned. It has been report- ed in some quarters that they are both se- riously ill. Thisrumorno doubt originated from the fact that Dr. Liking, after the death of the Duke, remained at Sandringham to at- tend her Royal Highness and Princess Victo- ria. Thisissaidtohave been more a meas- ure of precaution than of necessity, resulting from the fear that trouble might follow when the nerves of the Princess relaxed from the severe strain that had been placed upon them. Gen. Sir Dighton Macnagilton Probyn,comp- troller and treasurer of the Prince of Wales’ household, this morning sent a dispatch to London denying the report which stated that the two Princesses are seriously ill, He ad- ded in his dispatch that they are as well as can be expected. The body of the Duke of Clarence will be taken from King’s Lynn to London on the Great Eastern Rallway. From the Liverpool street station in London it will be taken to the station of the Great Western Rallway and thence to Windsor, There will be a public and semi-military procession through Lon- Gon from one station to the other. The route will be kept open by soldiers. Upon the ar- rival of the train bearing the remains the coffin willl be placed upon a gun carriage and will be escorted by the Tenth Hussars, of which regimentthe Duke wasa Major. The Prince of Wales is Colonel of the Tenth Hus- sars. The body will be received at Windsor with military honors and vill be guarded to the castle by a squadron of cavalry. In the procession through London the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Edimburgh and the Duke of Connaught will follow behind the gun, guarding the body. The guards will be de- talled along the route and keep it clear. It is expected that the remains will ar- rive at the Great Eastern Railroad Sta- tion, Bishopsgate street, this city, from Sandringham, at about 9a. m., and that the procession will then pass down Bishopsgate street to Cornhill, past the Mansion House and Exchange, through Cheapside, past St. Paul's churchyard, down Ludgate Hill to Ludgate Circus. The procession will then enter Fleet street and pass up the Strand to Charing Cross, through Trafalgar square to Waterloo place. From there the funeral pro- cession will pass into Regent strect to Oxford Circus, along Oxford street to the Elgararo road, and then to the Great Western Rallroad Station at Paddington. From that station the body will be taken to Frogmore, near Windsor, the site of the mausoleum of the late Prince Consort. The final funeral services wil), it is expected, take place in St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, as soon alter noon as the arrival there of the body Will permit. THE QUEEN’S CONDITION. ALARMING RUMOR CIRCULATING IN LONDON— CONTRADICTORY STATEMENTS. Loypox, Jan. 16,—A report has been quite current that the Queen was sert- Ously 1H. This report has since been strengthened by the rumor. that Her Ma ſesty is suffering from influenza. The physicians and others in attendance upon the Queen persist in say ing in reply to all ques- Uons upon the Subject, that she is enjoying her usual health. This, however, does not alter the fact that the Queen 16 generally admitted to be iil and that her condition gives cause lor considerable uneasiness. Her Majesty is really known to be stubbornly op- posed to the circulation of any news regard- ing her health, and 16 fighting vigorously against the malady, complicated by grief at the loss of her favorite grandson, from which She is suffering, and has announced her de- termination to go to Windsor on Tuesday boxt in order toe present at the funeral of the Duke of Clarence and Avondale on the following day, x.

Loxpox, Jan. 16.—It was, perhaps, only natural that in popular expressions of sym- pathy the death of Cardinal Manning should be overshadowed by the death of the Duke of Clarence one hour later the same day, but the remarkable scene inthe vicinity of the Archbishop’s house this evening when the London laborers have a half holiday, demon- strates what a tremendous hold the late Cardinal had upon the overpressed toilers. The dead Cardinal les in ¢apel ardente on the second floor ofthe residence, where the publie is admitted fora farewell gaze on the worn face of their beloved friend from 11 to 5 | each day. The body, lying with the head somewhat raised, is robed in purpie chasuble, white mitre on head and the Cardinal’s hat resting on the feet. Thousands of London’s poor passed through. All day long an un- ceasing procession dropped tears upon his body, and when the doors finally closed forthe night throngs went away disappointed. However, as the funeral arrangements are not yet decided upon, the body will lie in state till Tuesday. The impressive expres- sion of popular sympathy, as exhibited in Westminster to-day, will be continued next week. When the London dockers’ strike was on last spring the Knights of Labor of America created a bad impression among the London laborers by declining to cantribute funds. Their hegligence in this respect was unfavor- ably compared with the generosity of the Australian Labor Unionists, but whatever II- feeling was aroused by this omission fs ro- moved by the sympathetic message of con- dolence received from the Knights of Labor, expressing sorrow at Manning’s death. The 106 words cabled as representing the sym- pathy of the entire body of the Knights of Labor, creates a deeper impression than any other message of condolence Cardinal Gibbons and several other bishops of the United States have also cabled their sympathy. Cardinal Manning had promised to supply a paper on religion and one on labor to the Chicago Exhibition, but death made the realization of the promise impossible. But it is not impossible that the great churchman’s voice may be heard at that celebration. An impressive message spoken by the lips of Cardinal Manning with a view to it being an utterance to be passed duwn to posterity is in existence. Last Easter Cardinal Manning heard for the first time the weird voice of the phonograph in the form of a message from Cardinal Gibbons, between whom and him- self existed the warmest regard, His delight and wonder were remarkable. This led to the suggestion that a message from him be delivered to the faithful custody of the pho- nograph, that his voice might be heard when he had passedaway. The Cardinal was ad- solutely' silent several moments over the suggestion, which affected his mina witb a force akin to awe. Then he declared he would speak into the instru- ment to De beard again only death, the phonograph was placed in post- tion. Pausing some moments to collect his thoughts Cardinal Manning spoke a sentence so full of feeling and invested with so much solemnity that every one present was im- pressed with its majestic force as the Cardinal imparted this utterance of not more than fifty words. It wasthe first time that any one had spoken into Edison’s wonderful machine something explicitly intended as a posthumous message to posterity. It need scarcely be said that the dominant senti- ment of the words of the Cardinal was a re- ligious one and the language most beautiful, seemed to tremble with the depth of feeling with which it was pronounced. It was a liv- ing voice Geiiberately turning itself into a voice from the grave. Every one who ‘assisted in this action was moved with the gravity which the occasion assumed. The cylinder on whose waxed sur- face were traced the vibrations of Manning’s clear, rich, sharply chiseled tones was con- signed to Col. Gouraud to be Incased so as to preserve intact the faintest impression on its surface. The plate glass frame, ten inches in height, was set into an ebony case seven inches square. A plush covered column rose from the middle of this case to hold the cylin- der, The key was turned and the locked up voice was given into the keeping of Canon Johnson, Secretary to the Cardinal. to be carefully preserved until the conditions un- der which the message had been spoken are realized by its delivery to posterity. None but the two present when the Cardinal pro- nounced the words know what they are. This confidence they may not divulge. The silver plate on the case bears engraved upon it the words N > „ „%%% % weeceee eee „„ >. : Spoken by Cardinal Manning, f Easter, 1891. f This message has been sacredly guarded at the Archbishop’s house ever since. Some time it will be heard as the deceased Car- dinal wished it should be. Thelast word the Cardinal actually uttered was to the Bishop of Salford at 7:30 Thursday morning: „Jam going. „Shall I say mass for you?“ said the Bishop. „po, returned the Cardinal. le dia not speak again. Death came with end ofthe mass. The last letter he dictated and signed with the greatest difficulty was to Cardinal simeont, Prefect of the Propaganda at Rome, who died the same morning as Manning. Cardinal Mannineg’s death deprives Rome of her ablest servant in England. He was as practical af Newman was theoretical. Man- ning spent his whole time and strength in personal labor among the poor and affilcted. Probably one of the greatest achievements of his life was the settlement of the great dock strike, when he plodded about the docks day after day, mediating between employer and employes. It was Manning’s tact and sagac- ity which swept aside the blundering at- tempts at compromise made by the Lord Mayor of London and prevented a general strike among all the Jabor unions of Engiand. While endeavoring to settle this strike, Cardinal Manning was obliged to appear be- fore the Committee of the House of Com- mons. His reception there was one of the memorable features. He entered the lobby just as the. division bell rang. -Members came fiocking from the committee rooms, the Mbrary and restaurant. Fore- most among them was Sir Charles Russell with scores of Liberals and Irish members in bis train. Upon catching sight of the Cardi- nal Sir Charles dropped on one knee and surrounded by a swarm of members anxious to grasp his hand as they hurried to cast their votes. Manning was always popular with the Lrish members and Radicals. He was a home ruler of the most advanced type. Everything connected with Ireland touched his heart. He was not alwaysas wiseas he was earnest, It was Manning who misled Glad- stone about the university bill of 1873. He blessed it. Rome banned it and the bill was lost, Gladstone sketched out his original Irish policy tothe Cardinal years before he was able to put it in shape. 1 then not become a home ruler, but the Of his land act of 1881 were already working * } ‘ - ‘ * 0 !

Requiem mass will be said by Hon. Wm, Clifford, Bishop of Clifton, and the sermon will be preached by the Right Rev. John ©. Hedley, Bishop of Newport. The mass will be the Gregorian and sung entirely by the clergy; it will be of the most solemn character. The church, which is one of the most deautiful in London, will be shrouded in black. A lofty cata falque will be erected in the center aisle, around which lighted candles will be placed, and on which the casket containing the remains will be deposited. The ceremonies will be of the most elabor- ate character and are expected to last about two hours and a half. PRINCE GEORGE. STANDING IN A NEW RELATION SINCE THE DEATH OF ALBERT VICTOR. Lonpoyw, Jan. 16.—Alleyes are now turned toward Prince George, who had hitherto at- tracted no more notice than any ordinary sprig of royalty, but who now stands nearly within the rays of that ‘‘flercelight which heats uponathrone.’’ In an interview to- day Commander Robinson, Royal Navy, who has enjoyed unusual opportunities of inti- macy with Prince George In the way of official association, expressed to the corre- spondent his belief, based upon his knowl- edge of Prince George’s personal desires, that the new heir-presumptive will retire from the navy and realize his long cherished wish toenterthe army. Despite the denials that have from time to time appeared it ro- mains true that the Prince has frequently ro- belled against a naval career, and the clashing between his wishes and those of his father and the Queen recently reached a climax, the Prince declaring that he would not serve in the navy any longer unless given a first-class comm and, as he was tired of be- ing an underling, and especially in a service fhat was, even at best, distastefulto him as compared with that of the army. The change in his position which has now occurred will, of course, cause greater deference to be paid to his wishes, and he will, no doubt, soon be transferred to a suitable rank in the army. The characteristics of the Prince are now being discussed with the interest naturally felt in the personality of a probable future ruler of the people. Among other things it is stated that Prince George has a strong feeling of antipathy for the newspaper press, resembling in this respect the Duke of Cam- bridge. He is honest and frank in his man- ners, albeit rather rough. In conversation he is anything but refined, and makes fre- quent use of strange oaths,’’ evidently learned in all parts of the world and among all the people that his wandering sailor life has led him among. It may reasonably be expected, however, that erie ie one a aye { pPebleity he amend his Mmänners and conversation to more perfect fitness with his position in life, Taken all in all the English people seem satisfiga that the line of royal succession, so far as it is assured, is made up of good material. TRADESMEN IN DESPAIR. SIX WEEKS OF MOURNING WILL MAKE PROFITS LIGHT IN LONDON, LONDON, Jan. 16.—West End tradesmen are in despair over thé losses of prospective profits which they have sustained on account ofthe death of the Duke of Clarence. The six weeks’ period of official! mourning, though shorter than might reasonably have been ex- pected, is yet long enough to spoil myriads of plans that have been made for winter en- tertainments and festivities of various kinds. What makes the state of affairs particularly harrassing to those who derive their main income from catering to the luxurious de- mands of society is the fact that two preceed- ing seasons have also been exceptionally dull and gloomy, so that this will de the third bad season for the trade. Many fallures must inevitably result. The disappointment among merchants is all the more keen be- cause up to the time of the death in the royal family there was every prospect that two un- profitable seasons that have passed were to be largely compensated for bya winter of more than average brilliancy. The expected marriage of the Duke of Clarence with the various social events following in its train, were relied upon to enliven the coming months. Hundreds of merchants had or- dered immese stocks of gooas on the strength ofthis favorable outlook. The prospect is now changed to gloomy forebodings of stag- nation and bankruptcy. WEDDING PRESENTS. WHAT SHALL BE DONE WITH THE GIFTS TENDED FOR THE BRIDE. Lonrpon, Jan. 16.—A delicate question has arisen with respect to the presents for the wedding. Some had already arrived. In hundreds of cases orders had been lodged with artificers for the production of desired gifts, while all over the country associations were formed for the collection of subscrip- tions. What is to be done withthe money promised or collected for presents already ordered? Lady Zetland, wife of the Lord Lieutenant, rather hastily, some people think, has ordered the money collected under her auspices to be returned: In other quar- ters the disposition is to wait and think the matter over. Wedding presents withouta wedding is a strange anomaly, but there is a desire which is spreading and which will prob- ably take practical issue thatthe sympathy felt for Princess Mary should take substan- tial form. It is hardly likely Princess Mary would tolerate any such arrangement. The creation ofan endowment arising from the death of her promised husband strikes peo- ple as barbarous, WILL RESUME BUSINESS. A Grocery Firm Closes Temporarily—Vol- untary Liquidation. LAWRENCE, Kan., Jan. 6.—The firm of Whitcomb Bros., dealers in groceries and feed, closed its doors yesterday morning.

Impetus—Ali gfthe Powers Drawn Into the Chase for Unexplored Regions— Some of the Unlocked for Results of African Invasion-— General Foreign News. Berim, Jan. 16.<The recent series of dis- asters which have n German expedi- tions in Africa, by which the lives of thous- ands of dra ve have been sacrificed, have caused and more wide discon- tent throughout ny against the Gov- arnment’s licy. The German LIb- erals have d sniped to bring up the entire colonial policy of the Government in the Reichstag, Herr Von Richter, the German Lib- eral leader, who has been supplied with in- disputable facts by Lord Randolph Churchill and several German explorers, will promptiy oppose any § further expenditures for German colonization of Africa, Herr Von Richter in an interview to-day said: Ihe Best evidence obtainable shows that nota Single German-African re- gion is a fit field for agricultural coloniza- tion. There have all ajong been warning voices lifted against these regions and those have been wise who have steadily protested against. the — African annexation which has possessed Europe since 1881.

The pe ot inflation began with the Berlin conte and ended with the last Anglo- German ment. Most of the powers have ted, and in each case there have been heads who have pro- tested. * a The impetus wag, givem dy travelers, of whom Mr, Stanles is of course the chief. The King of the S was thefirst to en- deavor to make something of the new coun- tries. His object was philanthropic, rather than commercial, and had every promise of succeeding in its aum, The work of the Congo State was embarrassed partly by the politi- cal rivalries of the , and partly by the strange revival ot e among the savage ' zs g ca-—a Fevi- val that was to some extent the unforeseen consequences of European exploration. From the close ofthe Berim Congress the claims of France and Germany expanded and England seemed bound, if she was not outstripped andif regions opened by Englishmen were not to pass under foreign flags, to claim her share. Italy was also drawn in. Inevery case the result has disappointed the euthus!- asts. Each country finds the balance sheet of its new African venture to show a considera- ble expenditure of money, the loss of many Mves and no return except in the shape of colored strips on its maps. The old plan would have been to settle by degrees along the coast of Africa, keeping to the river banks and making each step sure before taking the next. The new plan arose in the Congo State from the idea of taking the whole area at once under civil- ized control and protection, and thus bring- ing to the natives in one short bound all the blessings of order, industry and trade. „The enterprise has proved too vast. It would have involved for its success the sink- ing of acapital such as no nation can spare and the creation in a region not yet access!i- bie except at a great cost of money and labor even tothe single traveler;of a huge structure ofroads, steamers, stations, gov- ernors, magistrates, police and troops. The same pian, without philanthropic pur- pose, except as after - thought is the basis of several of the German annexations. To owneterritory was the first thought; what to do with it was tobe considered later. To look before you leap isa rule which has been Oberved only by the Royal Niger Co. The rest, Italians, Germans; English and French, have to a greater or less exent neglected. In the present early stage of these under- takings the most urgent business is a thor- ough stock taking, mot merely of the possi- bilities of each region, but of the amount of capital that will be needed to develop them. In some cases it will be found that the large schemes, which are so attractive, though they may be possible in the abstract, require, in order to be carried out, resources which at present are not forthcoming, and that a rea- sonable return for the energy that is availa- ble will most surely be had from the prose- cution of humbler desigus. DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE, SPECULATION AS TO THE POLITICAL FUTURE OF "_ 'HARTINGTON—LONDON TOPICS. Loxpox, Jan, 16.—In ministerial quarters, likely to form a sound judgment on such questions, a strong belief prevails that Lord Hartington’s successign to the dukedom has largely increased the prospects of his joining the Government. The Cabinet is in extreme need of fresh blood, and the Duke of Devon- shire would find a ministerial position in the conditions of the upper house much more congenial to his tastes than a seat on the Treasury bench in the House of Commons, His acceptance of office so long as he was in the House of Commons would have a revolution- ary effect on the position of parties; inthe House of Lords it can be arranged without fuss and difficulty. There are two or three posts held by ministers with seats in the up- per House, which would have been vacat long sinte It satisfactory as pirants could have been found, Any one of these would give the new Duke a dignified official position without putting any severe strams upon his energies. But there is another post of the very highest importance which he could take to the great relief of Lord Salisbury, and that is the for- t that : ) — counties is on the increase. As a matter of fact, the Grand Council of ‘the league has at last decided that, in order to maintain its position, it will be necessary to adopt a more representative basis. It has thus accepted a new.set of laws. It remains to be seen whether this will ‘be ‘sufficient to allay the discontent which recently had so vigorous and disturbing an expression. The British Board of Agriculture has had brought ander itg notice a proposal to ar- range an international convention on the subject of the adulteration of food. Tne project, which is being promoted by the Netherlands Chamber ef Commerce, has been approved by the committee of the Royal Agricultural Society of England. It originated in a resolution passed at the re- cent International Agricultural Congress at The Hague, The plans of the Socialists for their pro- posed great labor demonstrations at World’s End, Chelsea, on Sunday, Jan. 81, are not yet fully matured. Great preparations, how- ever, are being made for the event. It is ex- pected that fully 300,000 people will assemble. Fifty speakers have been, arranged for. A meeting of leaders has been called for Wednesday next, at which plans will be out- lined. It is amost certain, however, that the plans of the police are the only ones that will be carried out. These involve the total sup- pression of the proposed procession, and suc- cess can hardly be doubted. It nas been asserted that the British Ad- miralty is proceeding very expeditiously with the completion of the naval reserve. As a fact, however, the authorities are hopelessly unable to obtain anything lke an adequate supply of officers and men. There are only 836 eutenants on the active list at present, and but 280 fleet, staff and chief engineers, so that there is absolutely no reserve of these officers; and, in addition, the supply of en- gine-room artificers and stokers is entirely below the necessities of the service. Balfour returned to town to-night in con- sequence of the death of the Duke. The political campaign he was about to open in the north of Ireland was abandoned. Special interest pertained to this enterprise, as it was understood Balfour’s journey was witha view of conciliating the Orange landlord faction of Ulster in anticipation of the intro- duction of a local government bill. Minister Lincoln still improves. Among the latest victims of influenza are the wife and son of Henry White, Secretary of the Legation at London, IT LED TO SEDAN, DISCLOSURES MADE BY PROF. GERMAIN SEE ABOUT NAPOLEON II. PaRIs, Jan, 16.—Prof. Germain See has just created a great sensation here by adding some very interesting particulars with re- Spect tothe circumstances under which the physical condition of Napoleon III. was kept a secret at the moment of the declaration of war with Germany in 1870. Hesaysthat on being summoned to attend the Emperor in June he soon divined the true state of affairs, and in the course of their first conversation he asked his illustrious patient to give him some idea what the condition of his health had been since 1964. . Tou have hit the mark,“ answered the Emperor, for my condition is due to an accident which occurred when I went to visit the tomb of my mother in campany with the Empress, the Princess Anna Murat and Madame Marette. The horses bolted, the carriage was upset and from.that day I never was the same man. Prof, See had expressed the wish to meet in consultation the doctors who were attending Napoleon III. and all of them assembled on the morning of July 8 in the house of Dr. Conneau,who stated the case to his colleagues and at the same time gave them his candid opinion of it. They finally yielded to hisarguments. Thencame the question as to whether an operation should be performed at once or whether it should be postponed some time. Prof. See spoke strongly for im- mediate action, but some of his medical friends advocated delay. Prof. See pressed his point with such effect that he eventually won Dr. Ricotsta over to his side. The dread of the responsibility to be in- curred was, however, 80 great that his colleagues asked to be allowed to wait until the summer was over and finally a majority voted for the postponement of energetic measures. The professor was requested to draw a report, which he did, and on July 3 handed it to Dr. Oonneau, under the im- pression that it had been signed by all his colleagues. On Sept. 4, however, he ascer- tained this had not been done and this fact he learned under very peculiar circumstances. Jules Favre had od- tained possession of the document and sent it to his Secretary to inquire what it all meant. Prof. See affirms that all the particulars of this memorable consulta- tion were withheld from the Empress by Dr. Conneau, and he adds that Napoleon III. himself was not acquainted with the details until a year afterward. All this evidence is held to establish the fact as conclusive that neither the Emperor, the Empress nor those about them had any idea of the very serious character of the illness with which Napoleon was suffering, and it furnishes suf. ficient ground for the inference that if he had known the bitter truth the declaration of war against Germany would have at least been postponed. - The dread of the responsibility for a sur- gical operation thus led in the opinion of Prot See toone ofthe greatest catastrophes of modern times, and he adds that Dr. Copneau was not one of the medical men who voted for or against this operation, and who attended simply as witnesses of the con- sultation, which was held at his house. THE SEASON AT NICE, FEW AMERICAN AND ENGLISH VISITORS—THE GAMBLERS. . Nice, Jan. 16,.—Everything seems to be going wrong with Nice this season. The fall- ing off in the numberof American and English visitors has already been mentioned, and now those that are here are halt ot them ili with influenza. The weather is simply, abominable, for four days it bas been raining incessantly, and the air is raw and chilly. The races on Monday were a fallure, Monte Carlo is much livelier this week than last. The most remarkable event there of late has been the complete collapse of the late favorite of fortune, Mr. Wells, Nobody pays any attention to him since he descended from winning maximum coups by the dozen to the level ofa common punter at a single louisa chance. Most here ‘look on him with a mixture of p and contempt, as a fellow who had £30,000 in bank and had not a * the roulette room. Chicago was planging he little capital, all of which he, however, managed to lose to-day. W. K. Vanderbilt saunters about the room almost daily, but he plays very little. The Vanderbilts are in the haute dolle. A public subscription was opened last night for the purpose of forwarding a superb wreath of the most exqufsite reviera flowers to the funeral ot the Duke of Clarence asa token of sympathy and grief felt by the En- glish and American colony and the same thing will be done at Cannes and Mertone, MME. ROLAND’S PAPERS. INTERESTING MANUSCRIPTS IN POSSESSION OF THE FRENCH NATIONAL LIBRARY. Pants, Jan. 16.—According to the official re- port published yesterday the National Library has acquired some highly interesting manuscripts and among them the papers which formerly belongedto Mme.

These include a copy of the ‘*Marsellaise,’’ which was made by the author, Rouget de Lisle, for David Angers, and all the manu- scripts of Victor Hugo with the exception of those of Hans Desland,’’ Hernani, Les Rayons’’ and Les Chattiments.’’ Among the . manuscripts which will shortly be published by the library is The History of the Iuness and Somnambulism of Lady Lincoln.“ This lady was the daughter of the Duke of Hamilton and the granddaughter of the Duke of New? castle. This ig a curious document which was sent to the Rue Richelieu by an anony- mous donor and it is probable that before long we shall have the memoirs of the Duc de Persigny, Comte Mole, Maron de Rarante and the Comtesse Dash, the last of whom was a lady novelist who wrote under thig pseudonym and who died at the age of 72, Another interesting book will be the Memoirs of Comtesse Gilbert des Voisins,’’ better known as Taglioni, the great dancer. These memotrs are very voluminous and contain the whole history of her life as wellas interesting details of the great Eu- ropean personages and courts with which she was brought into contact. A pamphleteer has created a sensation within the last few days by drawing atten- tion to the fact that the Principality of Monaco is legally within Italian territory and constitutes a danger which France can- not afford to neglect. The author proves his assertion by quoting the treaty by means of which Sardinia acquired sovereign rights over Monaco, and then he goes on to argue that Italy inherited all the rights of Sardinia, FATHER OF THE HOUSE. MR. CHARLES VILLIERS TO BE TENDERED A BAN- QUET BY HIS FRIENDS. LonpDon, Jan. 16.—The friends of Mr. Chas. Villiers, the ‘‘Fatherof the House of Com- mons,’’ have made preparations to give the venerable member of Parliament a banquet on next Tuesday, the anniversary of his birthday, when Mr. Villiers will have com- pleted his 90th year. Mr. Villiers is a remarkable example of longevity in a class not altogether famous for length of days. In one sense he has al- ways been a man about town. no man has dined out sooften, and noneof his rank has passed so many days In London, Mr. Villiers is not a teetotaler or abdstainer. He is in fairly good health, and still remarka- ble for mental activity, which in earlier years used to find pleasant exercise in a large | private correspondence. who have long enjoyed his friendship—in- }cluding the late Queen of Holland, and Sir John Lambert—have preserved his let- ters, and they should hereafter be made public, the world will recognize in Mr. Villiers one of the most incisive and interesting writers of the century which his life has almost spanned. Born in 1802, Mr. Villiers has a clear recollection of the re- ceipt of the news from Waterloo, and was rising to mature age when the first reform bill Was passed. He has made no sign of with- drawal from Wolverhampton, and will prob- ably be the only unopposed dissentient mem- ber of the House of Commons, thus beating all records in Parliament for length of sery- ice to one constituency. FRENCH CENSUS, THE FIGURES SHOWN JUSTIFY RECENT STATE- MENTS MADE—PARIS GOSSIP. Paris, Jan. 16.—The correct figures of the census, which was taken last April, were published on Wednesday in the Journal Off- cial. According to these figures the total population of France 1s 38,218,908, an Increase for the four years and ten months and a half embraced by the census of only 124,289 as compared with the increase of 545,855 in the shorter period comprised between 1881 and 1886. The figures prove that the lamenta- tions of the patriots and political economists, who bave been sounding alarms as tothe gradual depopulatio#f of the country, are not without cause. The scenery of Switzerland will, no doubt, be brought home vividly to the people who visit the Columbian Exposition by the exten- sive panorama which is now being painted by three Swiss artists—Messrs. Burnand, Budd, Bovy and Furet—in their studio in the avenue Daumesnil, near Vincennes, They made the preliminary studies for it last year in the Bernese Oberland, The oldest member of the dramatic pro- fession in France, if not in the whole world, died at Nemours on Wednesday last. His name was Chollet, but it has naturally long since disappeared from the play bills, for its owner was born in 1798. He created the part of the postillion of Longumeau, the part afterwards made so celebrated by Wachtel, and he was also the first representative of the leading character in Zampa. . WORLD’S FAIR, FRANCE WILL MAKE A SPLENDID EXHIBIT IN 1893. ‘Parts, Jan. 16.—Major Fred. Brackett, the special commissioner of the United States Treasury Department for the Columbian Ex- position, and C. T. Jamieson have reached the ‘town after their tour in the North of France. Thky visited Havre, Caen, Rouen, Amiens Lille, Raubaix, Tourcoing and Rheims, at each of which places they interviewed the Government officials, the corre- \@pondents of the. cham merce and the editors newspapers. They say they found that a great deal of : ing taken in all matters fair. They conclude that France will make an exhibit equal toany she has yet shown, Probably. de It some of those dased u the conclusions at which the comm have arrived. This report after being upon will then be submitted to the executive committee of the fund, who will ultimately determine what further steps shall be taken in the matter, It is not thought that the opinion expressed by the commission in their report will in any way promote alarm in regard to the con- tagtousness of the disease.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Jan. 16.—The expe- riences of the United States troops on the Rio Grande frontier during the past several Gays have been trying and full of hardships. They have bad a good influence on the law- less people, but Garza continues to meet with great success in eluding them. The follow- ing telegram from Capt. Francis H. Hardie, who is at Pena, Tex., was received by Gen. David 8. Stanley at Department Headguar- ters here to-day: It is reliably reported thataforee of Garza men are collecting by ones and twos on the small ams that run into the Nueces in Duval and cinal 1 think it re 3 ae is very hard to catch a small o onan ral.

My troop has suf- fer very much, as we have been far from the Wagons most of the time. Pena is the county-seat of Duval County, twenty miles from a point where the four counties of Stark, Zapata, Encinal and Duval corner. These counties. with Hnoinal, have been the recruiting and foraging ground of the Garza movement since its inception, Four-fifths of the inhabitants are Mexicans or of Mexican descent. MAJ. MORRIS’ CAPTURE. An interesting report was received by Gen. Stanley at department headquarters here to- day from Maj. Louis T. Morris in command of Fort McIntosh. It reads: Yesterday I went down to the river to within a few miles oft Koma and captured atthe Santos Maria ranch a Mexican named Ismaei Germa, a Garza man, whose name you will find in the list Iwill send you. goes into Ringold to-morrow with A troop.

He says that they did not start out to whip the United States. THE START DELAYED. A later message from the same source reads as follows: Word has just been received from Sheriff Sheely advising us to not start just yet. He says that the uite ripe enough, but for us to be ready whenever he sends word. He is in a positions to know the plans of the revolutionists since the re- cent capture of some of the leaders. The man I captured would not talk to me, but he has given — information to Sheely. Lients. Beach and hort and A Troop go with me where the bandits are supposed to be. Anther report has been received by Col. J. F. Martin from Capt. Geo, P. Hunter, com manding Troop K. It is dated Camp Los Angeles, Tex., and reads: Ihave been unable to hear anything of Garza or his men in this immediate neighborhood. Sergt. Wilcox and his party proceeded in a northerly di- rection.bearing slightly to westward, and visited the ranches en route fora distanee of thirty-four miles without hearing anytifing of importance. Corporal Hollis and his party started Ina northeasterly di- rection, but finaliv turned due north, and then west. returning by another route, having probably been twenty-five miles north of here. At the ranch of Charlies Roach, about seven miles northeast, known as the San Carlos vance he was informed by Mr. Roach that he employed Mexican by the name of Carmel Ghanis, who left his employ about a month ago and stated that he was going to join Garza. Mr. Roach stated that the Mexican was in the neighborhood about thre@or four days ago, but that he had bot seen him. At Keynolds Raben, which Corporal Hollis estimates to be about eighteen miles northeast of here, Mr. Nevnolds told Corporal Hiollis that a Deputy Sheriff from Webb County had Visited his ranch about five or ten days ago and had seen the trail of about twenty animals which * were hearted toward the Alamito ranch, about twenty-fiveor thirty miles west of his ranch. Mr. Reynolds stated that Garza’s men had render voused in that vicinity before going to the river and, that in his opinion, they were going there again for the purpose of recuperating and drying beef. GARZA’S PAPER, In his search of the Palito Bianco ranch, the home of Garza’s father-in-law, Capt. Chase discovered -.a printing outfit and captured the last edition ofthe paper which is called Fil Internacional and is dated Jan. 10. The editor is said to be Catarino Garza. Copies of the paper were forwarded to Gen. Stanley, who wlll send them to Gen, Scho- eld. In a review of the situation the paper says: **The most important event and that which is occupying public attention is the revolu- tion inauyurated by Catarino EK. Garza against Mexico. In spite of the shield with which it is pretended to be covered one can gee the importance which the movement is gecnering and that day by day the rahks of 6 dissatisfied at the Gen. Dias Govern- ment are augmenting and joining Garza. The coolness with which Diaz treats Garza makes the latter's resistance more tenacious ana increases the number ot his followers.

Diaz did exactly the same thing which Garza is doing. Their cries and proclama tions have been the same. Garzgais now in revolt. Diaz revolted a number of times. Diaz promised that there would be no re- election, no revenue stamps and no free stage. Where ar hose prom- ises—that agreement with the peo- pie who elevated him to power? lave the people forgot those promises which Diaz has refused to fullfl?

Goldstein led Sophia Weiss, Libbie Bitterman and Hulda Rothchild before Mr. Bush, aud in behalf of the Hebrew Free School Sophia Weiss read an address and presented a basket of flowers to the venerable benefactor of the institution, The tender tribute touched the heart of Mr. Bush, and robbed him of the wer to express his sentiments fully. E. Rubowitz, Esq., ef Chi- cago, gave Mr. Bush a beautiful photograph album fliled with portraits of leading mem- bers of the B’nai Brith of Chicago. Mr. Rubowitz accompanied the gift with sentiments of the highest regard for the aged member ot the society, and r. Bush made a fitting rep Mr. Henry Greenbaum of Chicago gave him a beautiful picture, the gift of the little girls the Orphan Asylum at Cleveland, and Rev.

JACK THE SLASHER. Peculiar Features in the Murder of John Oarson of New York. New Tonk, Jan. 16.—John Carson, found in Christie street Friday morning with his throat cut, is believed to be the last of six drunken men allof whom have been mur- derously assaulted in an exactly similar manner. ‘‘Jack the Ripper’s’’ victims were always abandoned women; ‘‘Jack the Slasher’’ seemsto have a penchant for drunken men. All the facts in connection with the death of John Carson pointto mur derand not suicide. Carson was last seen alive about lo’clock inthe morning at the German lodging house at No. 81 Bowery. He was drunk then as all the previous victims of the phantom ‘‘Jack the Slasher’’ were. He was found at 4:30 o’clock in the morning lying dead, with a horrible gash in his throat, in front of a tumble-down little stable. The weapon with which the deed had been done was nowhere about. It had evidently been carried away by the person who was responsible for his death. It is argued that Carson might have committed suicide and that the weapon had been picked up by some prowler of the night. But it must have been covered with blood and few wen would take a bloody knife from beside a mutilated body. The murder, if mur. der it is, has gained so much notoriety in the neighborhood where it was committed, that ifa weapon had been found by an innocent person after the body was removed, it would straightway have been connected with the crime and takentothe police station. Diligent search in the vicinity of the murder both by the police and WORLD reporters has failed to disclose tha weapon. In the case of all men who are sug@posed to have been victims of The Slasher,’’ similarity of their experience most striking. Carson was only one of those slashed whose wounds proved fatal.

Tennessee Miners Attack the Convict Camps. COMMUNICATION BY WIRE CUT OFF FROM THE SCENE. Several Hundred of the Free Laborers Make a Midnight Assault on the Coal Creek Stockade—Train Men Passing the Colliery Confirm the Report of the Ea- gagement. KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 16.—Shortly before midnight to-night the telegraph operator in the camp at Coal Oreek wired startling news. He said that the miners tothe number of ‘several hundred were massing on the moun- tain nearthe camp amid much noise. He also reported that a good deal of shooting was being done. The pickets and the miners exchanged shots. He then said he would collect facts and wire them at the earliést moment. Since that time the operator has not been able to reach him, The mine operators here are uneasy and have been besieging the telegraph office, but can learn nothing. A special train left at 12:30 carrrying news- paper men. The best opinions here are that no battle has taken place and that the miners are simply trying to annoy the troops. The operator at Coal Oreek cannot be reached, though it is not believed that the wires have been cut. It may be morning before any definite news can be had. There are 100 troops in the camp. At 1:80 a. m. the wires are in working order to. the camp, butthe operator cannot be reached. Trainmen have just arrived at Knoxville. They say they have heard reports at Coal Creek to the effect that the troops and miners were exchanging shots, but that this was denied later. They say that the miners were simply out for a little fun,and that no trouble has occurred. M’AULIFFE AND MYER Will Fight at New Orlenas Mardi Gras Week—Late Sporting News. New Tonk, Jan. 16.—The Olympic Athletic Club of New Orleans has. grown tired of listening tothe terms which the big fighters wanted to dictate to them and have practi- cally given up all hope of bringing offa match between any of the tip-toppers for Mardi Gras week. They feel very much annoyed at Charley Mitchell's refusal to meet Jem Corbett, and likewise are not pleased at Corbett’s refusal to meet Bob Fitzsimmons. There has been a great deal of talk lately of a match between Champion Jack McAuliffe and Billy Myer of Streator, lll. Myer **soured’’ on McAuliffe ever since the latter was allowed to draw his forfeit money in his match a little over a year ago with Meyer. McAuliffe has been really anxious for another go with Myer ever since he failed to whip him in their memorable fight at North Judson, Ind. Therefore when the Olympic Club telegraphed -its agent, Capt. Williams, to-day to match McAuliffe and Myer for a $10,000 purse he had little trouble in arranging it. The articles of agreement were signed inthis city to-day calling for a fight between Myer and Me- Auliffe before the Olympic Club in New Orieane on March 2, at 9 p. m., fora purse of $10,000 and the light-weight champlonship of the world. McAuliffe will go into training shortly. THE NEW WESTERN LEAGUE. Sr. Pau, Jan. 16.—Jack Bennett, the future manager of the st. Paul Club, was seen this afternoon and shown the telegram from Columbus to the effect that St. Paul would be let out of the Western Association, placing Milwaukee in the Eastern circuit. Said he: That must be done if the double series scheme was to be go, but as it is notit won’t work. The West will make a dig league at a whirl, and if it tg a go will try it next season. This matter has all turned out ust as the slate was fixedat Chicago. WIII- ans never intended to hold that Cojum- bus meetin after he talked with us, but he ha to keep faith with the teams he had written to. The teams will be Minneapolis, St. Paul, Omaha and Kansas City in the West, and Columbus, Indianap- olis, Toledo and Milwaukee. That was prac- tically decided at the meeting at Chicago but was Kept quiet. THE DUNCAN AFFIDAVITS. Little Known ofthe New Witnesses of the Murderer.

WESTCHESTER, Pa., Jan, 16.—The mystery surrounding the disappearance of the cele- brated R. Jones Monaghan, a prominent law- yer and politician here, is being cleared up. The missing man is alive and well in Australia. Early this week Mrs. Monaghan received another cablegram from Monaghan at Melbourne, statingthat he had written her explaining the circumstances of his absence. On Wednesday, after the receipt of this last message, Mrs. Monaghan disappeared, andit was said she gone to San Francisco with the intention of taking passage ona steamer to join her husband. Not long before Monaghan disappeared he ha been retained in a rofessional capacity by a fascinating widow from Australia to settle up some estates which belonged to her in this country. After her business was con- cluded she returned to Australia. Although Monaghan’s family relations here are known to have been happy, yet it is declared by persons here who claim to know that the Australian widow exercised a peculiar influence over him, and that an attachment for her on his part furnishes the Key, hith- erto lacking, to the secret of his disappear- ance and flight to Melbourne.

O., Jan. 16.— There was a decided improvement to-day inthe toneof the general discussion of the Chillan affair. eo many sensational rumors have been set on foot regardina it that Senators and Repre- atives are entirely at sea as to the real situation. The impression is very strong among them, however, that the President and Secretary Blaine are at variance on the chief issue of the controversy—namely, as to whether the United States shall wait till Chili hascompleted the routine of the local courts already described by Senor Montt, or atum shall be served with- sent whether an ulti, out delay. It is, of course, 1» ferred that the President is for pushing the matter to a conclusion at once, while his Premier isan advocate of the waiting policy. conservative spirit was manifested in the conversation of leaders of both sides of the House to-day. In discussing the action of the President in transmitting correspondence to Congress next week the idea is quite gen- erally impressed that if the message of the president is of a belligerent character it will simply solicit the support of Congress in the service ofan ultimatum, The United States cannot, of course, afford to cause a rupture in the relations between the two countries until it nas defined to the Chilian Government exactly what it expects that Government to do and what it proposes to do in case the demand is refused; any other course will be contrary to all diplo- matic precedents. The Secretary of the Navy to-night denied the report that sailing orders has been is- sued tothe Charleston and Baltimore. The Charleston is not in sailing trim as her bot- tom is very foul and she will have to be docked and scraped before she will be serv- iceable. The Baltimore must undergo repairs that will take several weeks before she will be again ready for sea. The statement is also made at the department that but little significance attaches to the information cabled from Montevideo by Ad- miral Walker to the effect that 100 torpedoes have been shipped through that port to Chill, for the reason that these tor- pedoes must have been ordered long before the present controversy assumed a threat- ening aspect. Another statement discrec- ited by the departmentis the report tele- graphed from San Francisco, describing the charter of a coal transport to carry a supply of coal to some point on the South Amer- ican coast, This report had previously been denied by Admiral Brown, who was declared to have conducted the negotiations. A NAVAL OFFICIAL’S VIEWS. A prominent official of the Navy Depart- ment said to-night that the grossest misrep- resentation of the routine affairs of the Navy Department had Leen made by many sensa- tional newspapers of late. ‘‘As a matter of fact, said he, the vessels of the United States navy have been assigned to their win- ter stations within the last month or two, and as iscustomary, have been sent south. In view of the fact that the relations between the United States and Chill are some- what strained, as many vessels as were not required elsewhere were doubt- less sent to station, within easy reaching distance of Vaiparaiso. They have no special duty to perform atany of these stations and as there is nothing else for them todoitis quite natural that the Secretary should place them where,in the remote contingency of war, they would be available. With regard to the shipment of heavy guns and ammunli- tion, which has been dilated upon in these sensationa] accounts, there is not the slight- est foundation for the statement that there is any warlike significance attached to the fact. The twelve-inch gun recently completed at the navy yard for the Montery was begun more than eighteen months ago, and there has been no unusual haste in getting it ready, The same thing is true of all the other guns that have been completed. The department is constantly shipping to the Pacific Coast quantities of powder and pro- jectiies, ang there is nothing unusual in the fact. I notice that the launching ot the Cush- ing, Which was hauled out three or four months ago, has been pointed to as an evi- fence of a war-like spirit in the Navy be- partment, As a matter of fact these small torpedo boats are use- ful for various purposes, and ure constantly being put into the water and hauled out again. The Cushing has received no in- fructions to go south and the department bas no intention Ot sending her there. The Vesuvius is now at New York and has not re- felved any orders to go south, though I haveseen reports printed stating that she would be soon under way for Valparaiso. The recent changes that have been made in her Machinery have been referred to as evidence that she Is soon to be put into active service. Asamatter of fact these changes were all ordered by the board that tested her guns — —ñ—L— The Navy Department has * ereateffort for nearly three years fo put the navy into such a shape that it wuld be available on the shortest notice. hat is all we are doing now. | THAT CHALIAN 8QUADRON.

Most of these voluminous reports indicating preparations for war that you readin the papers have no foundation in fact. The United States has 64,000,000 people to fight with. as against 6,000,000, and, of course, could whip her little neighbor, but then it can’t afford to go to war past because it has the advantage o rength. There is always somebody ready td encourage war for polit cal purposes or to make money out of ft. There are those the development of whose greatness depends upon a war, and in such an episode as this they cater to the belligerent spirit that is latent if’ not patent in every human race. our relations with Ohili politically and commercially are too remote for the exist- ence of any just cause for a war. A quiet life is too sweet and peaceful relationship with foreign nations is too valuable for so consid- erate and conservative a ople as ours to ever engage in war with Chili, But there is no necessity fora war and the people not de- siring it 1 apprehend no trouble whatever. On the contrary, I believe Chili will be put on a triendlier footing with this country than ever by the outcome of this affair.’’ CHILI POLICY. The dispatches sent out from Valparaiso last night, representing that a decided im- provement had taken place there and that no War talk was heard among those whose opinions have weight with the Govern- ment,’’ are belleved in official circles here to be inspired by a desire, if possible, to further prolong the present situation of affairs. That such is the realcondition of sentiment there is not believed here. The facts, so far as they have developed, flatly contradict. the statement. The State Department received a message from Minister Egan to-day, in reply to one of inquiry respecting the conflict of evidence over the character of wounds sustained by the Baltimore’s sailors inthe riot. The pro- curator in making up his finding rejected all the testimony offered by the Americans and by the condition of the necktie of Salior Johnson, through a ball passed to sustain his assertion that the wound inflicted upon the sailors could not have been caused by car- bines, with which the police are armed, but must have been caused by revolvers. Another message received to-day, the con- tents of which were not learned, bat which were said to indicate a peaceful purpose on the part of Chill, is supposed to refer to the arrest of two ofthe party who stoned Capt. Stone’s gig a few days ago, whose punish- ment is said to have been promised by Senor Perisa, the Chilian Foreign Minister. Secre- tary Blaine was seen atthe department as a United Press reporter, but said he had noth- ing to say, further than to deny the trutb of some exaggerated rumors aboul the cabinet meeting yesterday. BLAINE VON T BLUSTER. AN OFFICIAL CALL ON THE SECRETARY BRINGS OUT NO WAR TALK. WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.—Five of the mem- bers ofthe House Committee on Foreign Af- fairs called at the Department of state just before noon to-day to pay their respects to Secretary Blaine. This visit was in pursu- ance of along established custom, whereby at the beginning of each Congress the com- mittee of the House which has to do with foreign relations calls upon the Secretary of State. Usually these visits are purely formal and particularly is this true when the majority of the House is politi- cally opposed to the Secretary. But the call made by the committee to-day was awaited with interest, for it was ex- pected thatthe strained relations between this country and Chili would be touched upon by the Secretary. The five members af the committee were Chairman Blount and Messrs. Hooker, Geary, O’Donnell and Har- mer, and according to their statements Sec- retary Blaine did not make a single direct allusion to our relations with Chill. To the surprise of the committee he did call to their attention the necessity for speedy action by Congress upon the Nicaragua Canal project. The Secretary was fully equipped with facts and figures to support his reasoning and very fluently he described the political importance of the canal, the volume of the traffic which would probably pass through it and the ad- vantages to accrue froma retention of its management.and control in american hands. Incidentally, it was made clear to the com- mittee that the possession of such a water- | way between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans would be of enormous strategic advantage if it should he necessary totransfer our naval vessels from one side of the country to the other. But of Chilian troubles the Secretary said nota word directly. It cannot be learned that any communications have passed this morning between the State Department and Minister Egan, nor was Senor Montt, the Chilian Minister, at the Department. * Several Senators and Representatives called upon Secretary Blaine during the forenoon. One of the former, who is from an interior Western State, said that he had heard nothing recently from the Secfetary relating to Chili, buthe did feel that this country should now assert its dignity and spank .the bumptious little South American Republic. SECRET CHILIAN AGENTS. THEY ARE SAID TOBE MAKING MAPS OF PACIFIC COAST HARBOR DEFENSES. TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 16.—Secret agents of Chill are said to be in every Pacific Coast port making accurate maps of the coast and har- bor defenses, their vulnerable points, ap- proaches, etc. Trusted emissaries are said to have been in Tacoma ever since New Year’s ad are saidto have obtained accu- rate information. The first discovery of these secret agents of the Chillan Govern- ment was made on Jan. 1. Col. G. Donglas Brewerton, formerly of the United States Army, now aresiaent of Tacoma, and who spent two years in South America and is well acquainted with the Chilian military officers, claims to have made these discov- erles. He recognized in au idler, who was watching the passing Portland and Tacoma Foot-ball Clubs, a Chilian officer whom he had known during his residence in that coun- try. Accosting him the two began a conver- sation and finally the Colonel recalled himself to the other's memory. The Chilian represented that he was here as the agent of a Chilian M syndicate to make arrangements with the Jacoma smelter for the reduction of ores. Col. Brewerton up to this time had had no supicions of the Chillan. He knows now why the other was lying. He set about to wateh him and found that he had lodgings in the city, where he met his fellow-countrymenand that they made fre- quent trips along the sound and commoni- cated by mail with persons bearing Chilian names in San Francisco and Portland. This led him to believe that the real purpose of the presence’of these Chillans was not one of peaceful commerce, but of reconnoſter for the assistance of the enemy. He questioned the smelter people concerning the supposed mission of the Chillan and found that the Chilian had never attempted to open nego- tiations with them for the reduction of Chilſan ores. — —— WORK AT SAN FRANCISCO, GETTING THE CRUISER BALTIMORE READY FOR SEA~THE CHARLESTON. SAN Francisco, Cal., Jan. 16.—Public inter- est in the Chilian question is increasing here. Despite the denials ot naval officials, the greatest activity prevails in all de- partments. At the Mare Island yards a foree of machines and bollermakers and helpersare busily engaged in getting the Baltimore into condition for either à long cruise or lengthy service, and work on the Adams and Ranger is being pushed, The Mohican is now in the streum near Vallejo, ready for service and awaiting sailing orders. The report that a Chilian squadron of three ships and torpedo boat will start on a cruise next Tuesday has caused some uneasiness in this — and at San Diego. The squad will sail with sealed orders, andthe destination of the vessels is not . known point to the departure of the squadron from Valparaiso as hn of aggressive action on the part of Onill. The Charleston has received orders to leave’ San Diego at Foren a Sreperations that are 45 ase of w —— carried on by United States officials that would make interestin be the re a sect will doubtless sail to wi concerning American vessels on the Pacific Coast with the idea of converting some o them into auxilia cruisers should war be declared against Chili, The workings of the board h n forwarded from time to time to-the tary of the Navy, but the 1 ot course, have not been made Pp . THE MIANTONOMAH,. DRILLING THE NEW MONITOR’S CREW—PUSH- ING TORPEDO WORK. . New Yorn, Jan. 16.—Considerable activity was apparent yesterday afternoon in the navy yard asthe Miantonomah’s crew was drilling at the new infantry tactics on the wharf. Every advantage has been taken of the pleasant weather to get the monitor’s crew up to the mark. Drilling on Sat- urday afternoons, however, is quite extraor- dinary. It is evident that orders are ex- cted for the monitor to move at any time. ord has been received from Washington for the contractors to work night and day on the Whitehead torpedoes. The compressed air fiasks, to stand a ressure of 90 atmospheres, have already gun to arrive, and before a month is out trial torpedoes will be ready for the inspec- tion of the naval experts from the Newport tor pedo station. TRACY'S BUSY DAY. FOR A TIME OF PEACE THE NAVY SECRETARY IS VERY INDUSTRIOUS. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 16.--The Navy Department has become the busiest place in Washington for a week, all on account of the turn of affairs inthe Chilian situation. The bureau chiefs are reminded of the civil war times, when office hours, usually so strictly regarded by those in the Goverment employ bad no meaning. The private office of Sec- retary Tracy was thronged all day yester- day with naval experts and others who were summoned in consultation on the Chilian situation. By6o’clock when the Secretary was joined by Congressman Herbert of the House Naval Affairs Committee, he was in thoroughly unapproachable humor from the results of a hard day’s work. He began the a conference which ex- the hour for the Fri- meeting with President Roberts of the Pennsylvania Rallroad ana Mr. C. C. Griscom and ex-Senator Sewell, the latter directors in that road. It is under- stood that the subject of ready and rapid transportation of supplies and material was thoroughly discussed and arrangements for the concentration of ammunition at certain bases of supply in this country perfected. Another of Mr. Tracy’s visitors was Capt. E. A, Mahan, the President of the Naval War College, and an authority on the operations of war. He was called to Wash- ington to suggest the form of campaign in case one shall be necessary, the general features of which must be arranged in Washington and handed to the officers in command of the operations in Chilian waters to carry out with such modifications as circumstances may re- quire. Capt. Mahan spent the day in the Secretary’s office and when he left the building at 4 o’clock he had handed Mr. Tracy his pian of opperations in writing. In the consultations which he had with the ex- perts he had an auditor, the Naval Chief of Ordnance, Commodore Folger, who has been more frequently called in recent conferences | than any other officer. NEW COMPLICATIONS. CHILI REFUSES FREE CONDUCT TO THE EM- BARGOED BALMACEDISTS. VALPARAISO, Chili, via Galveston, Tex., Jan. 16.—Definite instructions were yesterday cabled Minister Pedro Montt at Washing- ton directing the withdrawal of Matta’s of- fensive note. It was presumed that this had been done before, but it is now known that the withdrawal had not been made. ° Anew complication arose to day with re- gard to the Balmacedists who sought refuge in the American and Spanish legations, just after the fall of the Dictator’s govern- ment, and who were permitted to go on board the United States cruiser Yorkton a few days ago. Since the Chilian Government has made no effort to prevent the departure of the refugees and they had been permitted to travel unmo- lested from Saatiaga to Valparaiso, it was supposed that they would get away to-day in safety and that there would be no further embarrassments growing out of the protection granted them by the American and Spanish Legations. At the last moment, however, the Chilian Govern- ment refused to guarantee the safety of the refugees while going from the Yorktown to the departing steamers, or even to agree that the steamers upon which they took pas- sage should not be segrched. Capt. Evans, who commands the cruiser, has cabled the Navy Department at Wash- ington for instructions. It is believed that instructions will be forwarded direct- ing that the refugees be taken to Mallende, Peru,on board the Yorktown. Whether the cruiser will be ordered to sail before some other war ship of the United States arrives here seems doubtful. AFTER THE UNIVERSITY. Clinton Putting a Strong Bid forthe Lo- cation. CLWrox, Mo., Jan. 16.—The Committee of the University Removal Association met in this city to-night.

Actor Mantell and His Wife Agree to Sep- arate. New Yorx, Jan. 16.—Robert E. Manten, the actor, and his wife have at last agreed to separate. Papers to this effect were signed by them in the presence of Lawyer A. H. Hummel, representing Mrs. Mantell, and ex-Assistant District Attorney Henry Hartman, representing Mr. Mantell. The signatures of both parties were affixed to pa pers a week ago. The principal clause in separation papers is as follows: Whereas, Divers disputes and unhappy differ- ences have arisen between the party of t © arst part and his said wife, for which reason they have con- sen and agreed and hereby consent and agree to live se tg and apart from each other during their uatu . The terms of separation are that Mr. Mar- tell shall pay his wife $100 per week for the of her natural life, out of which she shall support her two i sons.

ISSUED BY ADJT.-GEN. WICKHAM EN ROUTE TO WASHINGTON. — — Hurried Council of Officers at the Laclede Hotel Last Night-—Gov. Francis Also Starts for Waghimgton To-Day—Chilian War Prospects Believed to Have Caused the Order. There were sudden developments in militia circles in St. Louis yesterday which caused great excitement among members of the First Regiment and led tothe belief that the National Guard of the entire country was about to be recruited toa war footing under orders from the Secretary of Warin view of impending conflict with Chill. In conse- quence of this unexpected development, the biggest sensation that has stirred the local military for years spread through the roll of officers of the First Regiment, and wil to- day reach the rank and file through the pub- lication of generalorders from headquarters which have all the ring of war-times in their curt and emphatic sentences. Adjt.-Gen. J. A. Wickham arrived in St. Louis from Jefferson City yesterday morning. His visit was an unexpected one, and imme- diately following his arrival the fact became known that the Adjutant-General was en route to Washington, but that he had stopped over in St. Louis to calla special meeting of officers of the First Regiment for a council on sudden and serious matters. As soon as possible after his arrival at the La- clede Hotel, Adjt.-Gen., Wickham receiveda visit from Col. Chas. D. Comfort of the First Regimert, at present also commanding the First Brigade, N. G. M., and the two officers had a long and earnest talk. Its result was the following remarkable and significant general order sent to Acting Assistant Adjutant-General Edwin Batdorf at his office, with instructions to take steps to have it reach all company commanders by to-day at farthest: SUDDEN RBCRUITING ORDER. HEADQUARTERS FIRST BRIGADE, N. G. M. } Sr. Louis, Jan. 16, 1891. Genera! Orders, No. 1. I. Commanding officers are directed to recruit the companies and batteries under their command to the maximum strength without delay, giving preference to men between the ages of 18 and 30 years. II. Infantry companies should consist of not less than sixty men nor more than eighty, and batteries not legs than sixty nor more than 101. Only able- led men capable of performing active service in the field and who can respond to orders issued on ten days notice should be enlisted. III. Commanding officers are directed to forward to these headquarters by Feb. 5, 1892, special re- ports in duplicate of the strength of their respective commands, and all companies and batteries on that date found below the minimum of strength will be recommended to the Adjutant General for disband- ment. IV. All officers will conform to the custom of the service by acknowledging the receipt of all orders received by them from their headquarters. By com- mand COL. C. D. COMFORT Acting * General, First Brigade. Epwin BaTporF, Major and A. A. A. G. * OFFICERS’ COUNCIL AT THE LACLEDE. The issuing of the above general order did not end the sudden stir in military circles, but was rather only the beginning of it. At 7 o’clock last night, Adjt.-Gen. Wickham, Coloneland Brigade Commander Comfort, Capt. Sinclair of Co. F., Capt. F. M. Rumbold of Battery A and other officers of the First Regiment met in council at the La- clede Hotel. The conference was secret, but some idea of its drift was learned by the statement that in the midst of the war tank!“ brought up by the order published through Gen. Wickham’s in- struction, Capt. Rumold of the battery had reported that command as ready for action at a day’s notice, and had volunteered out- right for duty for the prospective Chilian war. Meanwhile, atthe First Regiment Armory the work of issuing the regimental orders, based on the general order published above, went forward last night with a swiftness that indicated strict in structions against a moment’s delay. Capt,Jesse Coningham,Regimental Adjutant spent the evening in the officers’ council room getting out the order, which will this morning reach all ofthe officers. The regi- mental order, after quoting the general order in full, closed with the following paragraph: Officers of this regiment will give the above gen- eral order their special attention. By order of LisvuT.-CoL. STITH, Commanding First Regiment. J. CONINGHAM, Captain and Adjutant. GEN. WICKHAM NON-COMMITTAL. Capt. O'Connor ofthe Eighth Cavelry, U. 8. „ was also present at the officers’ council, at the Laclede Hotel and took a part inthe discussion. At its close there was shown a decided disinclination to explain the meaning of the sudden order to recruit the First Brigade up to a war foot ing. Adit.- Gen. Wickham was seen and asked if the action was taken under direction of the War Department. * Not exactly, said de, and seemed dis- posed not to discuss the subject. Wat is the reason for the sudden order just issued?’’ Well, I would Is it brought a with Cnili?’’ No, not directly.“ Has your visit to Washington any bearing on this action?’’ „es, it has.

Francis was expected to arrive last night to attend, it was said, a second officers’ meeting following his ar- rival. Adjt.-Gen. Wickham was again seen, and sald that the Governor had not arrived, but would pass through St. Louis to-day also en ,route to Washington. Gen. Wickham’ lea des for Washington this morning. In the National Guard circles there is but one belief in regard to the sudden order issued yesterday, which isthatit is the be- ginning ofa movement to put the militia of the country on a ‘‘war footing’’ preparatory to a conflict with Chill. pest not to say. ut dy the prospect of war — * BREMER ON THE GOLD CURE. An Interesting Paper on Alooholism Be- fore the Medical Society. At the regular meeting of the Medical So- ciety last night Dr. Louis Bremer read a most interesting paper on ‘‘Alcoholism and Its Oures,’’ The doctor began by giving definitions of what the rea} alcoholism is and what dipso- mania is.

New Tonk, Jan. 16.— What plans have you on hand for keeping the rude turmoil of war from shattering the delicate globes of your incandescent lights all over this fair land?’’ was asked Thomas A. Edison, yesterday, in re, Chili scare. The face of Mr, Edison grew as fiend- ish as it ever does—thatistosay, about as fiendish as the inside of a nice pe water, melon. That, said he, I want to talk about. It is true I have invented an electric torpedo, the Sims electric torpedo, which we have sold to the Armstrong company. Itis a very It is put ona wire, as of course you understand, and moved by electricity. It can be run out twd miles ahead of a man- of war’s bow and be kept at the distance ready to blow up anythinginreach. Itisa very pretty and destructive toy. But it 18 not in that kindof thing that Itake pride. What I want to see is some foreign nation coming to this country to attack us on our own ground. Mr. Edison’s eyes danced with martial ardor. That is what Iwantto see, and I think that electricity will play such a part in war when that time comes as shall make gunpowder and dynamite go sitin humble obscurity with the obsolete flint arrow- head and call him brother. Every electrician, when that time comes, will have his plant for making the life of his enemy electrically uncomfortable. Here is one item of defense which I have in mind. It is simple as A, B, C. I have never spoken nor written about it before. With twenty-five men in a fort I can make that fort absolutely impregnable so far as an assault is comeerned, and 1 snould need twenty-five men to This is not guess work, but a matter of absolute scientific certainty. In fact, twenty-five men would be a very liberal garrison. Some years ago, when the wires, loaded with heavy electric. charges, began to go up everywhere, I predicted that there would be danger of the firemen receiving deadly shocks by the electricity running down the stream of water which might cross the wires, The insurance people laughed at the idea. But I tried it on a cat, and the cat and I found my theory to be true. That isto say, that I and the cat found it out, if there is another world for cats. He never knew anything about it in this world, In each fort I woyld put an alternating machine of 20,000 volts capacity. One wire will be grounded, would govern a stréam four hundred pounds pressure to square inch with which the 20,000 volts alter- nating current would be connected. The man would simply move the stream of water back and forth with his hand playing on the enemy as they advance and mowing them down with gbsolute pre- cision. Every man touched by the water would complete the circuit, get the full force of the alternating currentand never know what had hit him.

ITE SLAVERY. Inhuman Treatment of Seamen on an Oyster Dredge. BALTIMORE, Md., Jan. 16.—The crusade waged in behalf of the inexperienced and un- fortunate dredgers, followed up by the energy ofthe German society and the vigli- lance of the Government officigis here, has to a large extent put an end to the tyranny of the oyster captains in Maryland waters, but unfortunates are now shipped from New York to Virginia waters, where they are sub- jected to inhuman treatment. <A specimen case has just been called to the attention of the German society. No more forlorn looking unfortunates were ever seen than the four men who have sub mitted their case to the society. y are Angee Filange, 9 Lang, Geo Kelsch, and Joseph Hecht, who aoe — their faces the evidence of the terrible sufferings towhich they had been subjected. These men had ap- | aye atan employment agency in New York or work. Entirely ignororant of the hardships which a trip on an oyster schooner means for an unskilled hand, they willingly ac- cepted the offer for five months’ steady em- ployment. They shipped on 10, a according to their statements, were treated worse than convicts or slaves. They were brought to Baltimore at midnight on the lith immediately transferred to the schooner Summer, Capt. Light, which saued off to the waters of Virginia. Here they spent the most fearful three months of their lives. They were worked hard for sixteeg hoursa day and given only enough to eat to keep them from starving. They were, besides, subjected to the most brutal treatment by the captain and mate. Not a day passed on which they were not as- saulted witha hand-spike or some similar weapon. The Captain had a them safe, firearm, one of the men dared not remonstrate against the treatment received. On Dec.8 Filange was assaulted by the Captain, and George Lang’Seye was so badly injured bya blow of his fist that he was half blinded, and has been sent to a hospital by the German society. At midnight, on Jan. 10, while the Captain always Was asleep and the mate dead drunk, the four men took the small boat and rowed silently away. They could not reach shore in the boat, and having taken off their shoes to avoid waking the Captain, waded barefoot in the icy water to the shore. They there put on their shoes and walked through the snow for thirty-five miles till they reached Cape Charles, whence they were sent to Norfolk and thence to Baltimore. They said that in December a New Yorker who worked on the Schooner Coggs received such severe injuries, the result of an assault, that he died in great pain. ALIVE AND KICKING. James C. Lightner Thought the Water Was Too Wet. The following telegram came to hand last evening: . Cano. III., Jan. 16.—The reported suicide of J. OC. Lightner, son of a former County Judge of this county, proves to have beena trick perpetrated Lightner himself, who assumed the name of J. W. Adams and claimed to have seen Lightner commit suicide by jumping into the river here. Adams was induced to write down his story en route to Memphis on the steamer New South, and a comparison of this letter with those written to the Bulletin of this city by Lightner, in which he threatened to commit suicide on account of his wife’s desertion at St. Louis. proves that the letters were all written in the same hand. Phe pretended sui- cide is in Memphis, alive and well. e purpose of is ruse was to make his wife relent. Mrs. J. O. Lightner keeps a boarding-house at No. 2227 Olive street and is a pleasant- faced little woman, very prominent with her boarders. When shown the above telegram, she smiled and said that she really knew nothing about the matter, otherwise than that her husband had frequently threatened to make an end of himself when tiffed or seekin to force her to terms. She said that Lightner was shiftless and lazy, and preferred to lay about the house rather than earn a living. She has instituted divorce proceedings, and thinks that her husband seeks to make her believe that he is dead forthe purpose of having the proceed- ings dismissed. She received the following letter from him on Monday last: CA, III., Jan. 11, 1 p. m. To Mrs. J. C.

It is impossible for respectable citizens to read the unchallenged evidence in the case of the Ronsick saloon presented in to- day’s SUNDAY Post-DisPaTcH without a feeling of deep indignation at the manner in which, under the administration of Col- lector ZIBGENHEIN, the saloon law is vio- lated in letter and spirit, law-breakers are protected and the city is defrauded out of its proper revenue. . There is peculiar aggravation in the cir- cumstanges of this case. Therecords show that Ronsick.ran a saloon on Goode av- enue without obtaining a legal petition or license for nearly three months, that his case was continued in court without his appearing there at all and that an indefi- nite stay of execution was obtained for him and he was enabled, through the friendly aid of the Collector’s office, to run and dispose of his saloon business without paying a cent of fevenue to the city or suffering forhis violation of the law. Assistant City Attorney Mor- VIHILL says he never saw RonsIok, but the case was conducted entirely under the direction of deputy collectors. The very machinery for the enforcement of the law was used to mock justice and protect. the law-breaker. The spectacle of the Collector’s deputies, paid to enforce the saloon law, legging, begging and pulling to enable offending saloon-keepers to evade it, affords cause for both humiliation and anger. When the Collector's office, maintained to carry out the law and collect licenses, is used, under political influences and at the dictation of the disreputable saloon interests, as an agency to shield the vielators of the law, and in cheating the city out of its revenue, it is time té6 look about foraremedy. Honest saloon men will join with their fellow citi- ens in denouncing it as an outrage upon public rights which cannot be borne with patience. Meanwhile the question of the power of the city to protect itself from losses suf- fered through the connivance of the Col- lector at saloon frauds should be looked into. It is possible that he and his bonds- men may be held responsible for them. They certainly should be. — . — LOWER EDUCATION OF WOMEN. Same feminine orators gathered together in the Metropolitan Opera-house, New York, last Monday night, and with. wild gesticulations and other manifestations of earnestness announced that what women needed was higher education. It was ap- parent to these estimable ladies that higher education developed womanly character, strengthened their minds and promoted social progress in every conceivable way. Then they put themselves, on record in some ‘‘ringing’’ resolutions well caicu- lated to rouse every feminine heart from Winnipeg to Calcutta and from London to Timbuctoo. There is nothing strange or alarming in this outbreak of female enthusiasm, For several years past other women less elo- quent, but not less enthusiastic, have been quietly and modestly working for better educational facilities for their sex, and their efforts have been crowned with suc- cess, Women’s colleges abound in every land and colleges hitherto moncpolized by men are one by one throwing open their doors to women. Higher education for women isan accomplished fact so far as facilities provided are concerned, and it rests with the young woman herself—sub- ject to peéuniary limitations—whether or not she shall be highly educated.’’ But let us pause a moment. While higher, education is left to the colleges nothing can be said against it. The work done there is thorough and sincere. But out- side these institutions there is a more pressing need of lower education. What does it profita woman if she can prate learnedly of HeaGEL and Kant and Dante, and the Greek drama if she cannot do it in good English? How can she be developed by a knowledge of the Kantian categories and the Hegelian logic if she has neglected the preliminary training without which this transcendental information is as sounding brass and tinkling cymbals? What can clubs for the cultivation of social economies doif those composing them are unable to state a single fundamental theorem of political economy? Oultivation by chatter, tempered by reference books, is fearfully prevalent in every city of the Union among women who, in their zeal for the higher education, have forgotten that what is high must rest on what is low. The girle—young and old—are going too fast. Let us have a few clubs for the lower education of women. * Ws cheerfully afford an opportunity for Color Sergeant Jonx Boerro and Second Lieutenant W. E. GorRDON of the State Ca- dets to retract publicly the statement they made concerning a remark credited to Col. R. B. Price of Columbia. They say they have found that the report of his remarks was mere hearsay. In doing this service for the young men, however, we take the Ubefty of pointing a moral for the benefit of themselves and others with- out much experience in rushing into print. The. of these cadets in promptly = oe statement they can- not verify is as unquestionable as their imprudence in making it without verifica- tion. young man who learns to be ab- demand for more rapid pro- | solutely gure of the truth of a statement James Gazetie recently, known that the Tur organization of the Society of Loyal Volunteers by the Union veterans of the late war for the purpose of lopping off the abuses which have become fagtened upon the pension system is an excellent move in the interest of justice. Demagogism has become so engrafted upon the pension question that relief from political parties seems hopeless, although it is well known that the most outrageous frauds are prac- tised upon the country. The demand for reform comes with better grace and effect from the veterans who realize the discredit the present abuses cast upon them than from any other source. . THB better class of saloon men can hard- ly fail to recognize that the defeat of the present law regulating the granting of saloon licenses through a farcical interpre- tation of its protective clauses and tricky devices to circumvent its objects is not only outrageous, but unwise. The carry- ing out of the present law in such a way as to violate its spirit and over-ride public rights merely paves the way for another and more stringent measure. 2 Tun pathetic scenes at Sandringham serve as forcible reminders of the fact that royal personages are only men and women afterall. The divinity that doth hedgea king is not proof against death or the sor- rows and ills that flesh is heir to. The kinship of mankind defies the gorgeous trappings of the throne and the guarded splendors of the palace. The artificial dis- tinction of place vanishes at the touch of nature. 1 1 1 Ir is hard to believe that the writer of that remarkable paragraph in the St. reminding princes of their duty to marry and provide for the succession, was blind to his own humor—even though he is an Englishman. This is a duty which VicTo RIA’s progeny have performed with so much success that it seems like a very bad joke to remind them of it. A WELL-KNOWN dress reformer writes toa friend that her new baby girlisa perfect ex- ponent of her theories. She states that when she was born she had most wonderful mus- cular and vital strength and could hold up her head unaided almost immediately. This is carrying dress reform to an extreme, but she ought to show wheroin her baby had the advantage in costume at that time over its fellow babies. — J Ir is proposed to place a government tax upon every lottery ticket sold of 75 per cent ofits face value.

This question it is impossible to answer; it is even impossible to tell whether the highest peak is to be found in the Rocky Mountains, the Sierra Nevada orin the coast range. A remarkable fact about the North American Mountains is the number that just top 14,000 feet and fall below 14,730. It is estimated that there are fully fifty peaks between these elevations and at least a dozen that are within the variations of the instruments. As to Mount St. Elias, its height is not yet known with any approach to accuracy, but it is known that former estimates were greatly exaggerated.

The water is pumped to the tops of the towers, which are higher thanany point in the city, and thus the requisite head is obtained.

As to these young gentlemen should want toda such a thing is strange enough, surely; that the college authorities should permit it is stranger still. Such performance by under- graduates of Oxford and Cambridge would astonish England as much, I really believe, as the Lord High Chancellor acting as referee of a boxing match, or the Archbishop of Canterbury dancing the Highland fing. As my own opinions were much the same I changed the subject as quickly as possible and spoke of the weather. Fortunately forme my English friend left town before a description of the doings of the D. K. E.“ Society of Harvard was published in Harper’s Weekly. What she would have said about that most remarkable revelation of the results of college culture, I dare not guess. The description was accompanied by a wood-cut, showing ‘‘the Brand of the D. K. E. Society, which compulsory ornamen- tation is made by burning six holes in the left arm of the worthy member with a lighted cigar, after which he is considered as duly and truly initiated, and ready for active bust - ness outside. When the Sioux Indian slashes himself with a knife, or jumps naked into a snow bank to prove his courage and endur- ance, we are not much surprised, because he is a savage; and from savages any sort of savagery may be expected. But when students of a great college imitate the Sioux in an humble way, for no conceivable purpose at all except to show their pure cussedness’’—what are we to say? And when the college authorities allow such a society to exist among the students, what are wetothink? Well, we may at least think and say that if Rev. John Harvard of plous memory, who, 250 years ago, gave £700 to support a schoale or colledge’’ for the education of Indian youth, had imagined it would one day educate white youth into Indi- ans, the money would have been kept in his pocket, or been judiciously spent in hunting Quakers and Anabaptists out of the colony. Visiting England in 1874, I took with mea letter of introduction to the late J. H. Foley, perhaps the most eminent sculptor of that day. Hereceived me most cordially, and after discussing business matters showed me through his extensive establishment—the largest and most complete I have ever Seen. l remember that. the head of the colossal statue of Prince Albert, nowin Kensington Gardens, was just being hoisted out of the clay in which it had been molded. In the studio, finished, was the statue of Stonewall Jackson, now in the capitol grounds at Richmond, Va.; and Iwas asked to express an opinion of it as a portriat, the artist hav- ing had nothing to guide him but the small ‘side-face photograph in circulation during the war. Finally, Mr. Foley stopped before a figure carefully covered with a sheet, and said: „Here is something I want to show you, and whichI could not show if you were not a stranger.’’ The sheet was removed, reveal- ing a nude statue in marble of a young man, apparently 23 or 24 years old. Close-curling hair covered the finely-shaped head—hair much like that seen in the busts of Marcus Aurelius, and a wejl-developed mustache shaded the lips. The face was strikingly handsome; the face of a high-born, high- bred English gentleman, in the prime of early manhood; a face for men to admire and women to love. But the form!—ihat made one forget everything else. I can conceive ‘nothing more absolutely and exquisitely per - fect in all its proportions and all its details. The world-famous Apollo- Belvedere. Lord of the unerring bow, The God of life and poesy and light— whom Byron has pictured in verse that will outlast the marble,is not, to my taste at least, so nne a specimen of physical perfec- tion as this. I looked at Mr. Foley inquiring- ly, and he said: ‘‘That is a portrait statue of one of my amateur pupils, a young gentie- man of wealtn and high social position, Whose name I do not care to give. Atmy urgent re- quest he consented to have it done, and 1 my self took the plaster cast of his body from which the work, as you seeit, was executed. Solcan assure you itis no exaggeration of the original; simply as faithfula copy as I could make. I have often wondered whether the English Apollo, when he reached 60 would care to see himself as he was at 24; whether the consciousness of the change which years had wrought would not more than balance the pleusure of this embodi- ment of his glorious youth—a youth that never should have known age. But Time will rust the brightest blade, And Age will break the strongest bow; Was never wight so starkly made, But Time and Age will lay him low. Speaking of statues, when will some St. Louls millionaire immortalize himself and do a good thing for the city by placing a bronze Lafayette in Lafayette Park?—than which, by the way, there is no lovelier park of its size inallthe world, Surely the gallant French- man, to whom America owes so much, ought to have such memorial in the park which bears his name, and in acity whose name and origin are alike French, Years ago I made this suggestion in one of our papers, and was answered in the same journal by a correspondent who said that he did not see the uso of having another statue of Lafayette in the park when there was one there al- ready. Whether he changed his mind when informed that the ‘‘one there already’’ was a statue of Washington, and not of Lafayette, as he supposed, I never heard.

SHIPS BEDECKED WITH FLAGS, CANNONS ROAR SALUTES. | The Sultan of Turkey’s Assent to the Suo- cession of Abbas Read by a Special Envoy— Bands Render the Turkish Anthem and the Khedtwal Hymn—The New King Joins His Sorrowing _ Mother—The Soudan No Menace. Carro, Jan. Khedive of Egypt, arrived here about 1:30 p. m. from Alexandria. He was accompanied by a number of British and Egyptian Minis- ters. Draven up around and in front of the railroad station, near the Kantarath-el Leh - man bridge, over the Ismall-Lyeh Canal, was a most imposing force of Bntish and Egyp- tian troops, At the station the new Khodive was received by another batch of native and foreign officials, and was driven to the Abdin Palace via the Boulevard Clot Bey, the Place De Labours and the Boulevard Abdul Asiz. Those thoroughfares and the Place Ezbe-Hyeh were lined with troops and crowded with people. The prominent build - ings along the route were gaily decorated with flags, banners and bunting, and on every side were the evidences of the fact that the people of Cairo had resolved to give Prince Abbas a truly royal welcome, In the ce D’Abdin, the grand square inthe cen- ter of the city and facing the Abdin Palace, the whole of the British and Egyptian troops not on duty along the route of the procession were massed, presentinga splendid appear- ance, As the Khedive’s carriage appeared the troops presented arms and the combined bands played the ‘‘Khedtval Hymn.’’ At the palace stairs the young Khedive was re- ceived by the Vice Regal family ahd by the Ministers and other high officials, headed by a special envoy from the Sultan, who read a most imposing locking document, which turned out to be the Grand Vizier’s telegram intimating the approval of the Sultan of Turkey at the succession of Prince Abbas as second kKhedive of Egypt. When thi document had been solemnly read by the envoy in the presence of ministers, priests and highest notabilities, native and foreign, a royal salute of 101 guns was fired from field batteries and from forts and was boomed forth from the citadel until the hones of those resting in tombs not far from this fortification must have crumbled under the shocks of this brutal European artillery. : ri Then the bands played the Turkishanthem, the British cheered, the Egyptians gave vent to their feelings in various manners anda general holiday was inaugurated, and will läst until Monday next. The diplomatic corps were then presented to the Khedive, who received them most graciously, having a Kind word for everybody introduced. After the ceremonies of his installation were complete and afterall those who had assembled to welcome had received formal presentation, the young Khedive left the Abdin palace and took a special train for the Koubah palace, where he will join with his mother in sorrowing for the dead, The Koubah, or Kubbah palace, the resi- dence of the mother of the young Khedive, the Princess Eminah, ie near Abbasiyeh, a short distance from Cairo, at a spot near which, in barracks and in an encampment, a strong encampment of British troops is kept. This palace, which is also called the palace of Khedive Tewfits, formerly belonged to the late Mustafa Fazyl Pasha, the uncle of the late Khedive. The vineyards were planted by Ibrahim Pasha, the grandfather of the late Khedive, and contain numerous kinds of grapes from Fontainebleu. The present build- ing, however, may be saidto have been en- tirely erected by the late Tewük Pasha. In the distance are the plains where in 1617 the battle of Heliopolis made Selim and the Turks masters of Egypt, and where on March 80, 1830, Gen. Kleber with 10,000 French troops suc- ceeded in defeating 60,000 Oriental troops and for a short time regained possession of Cairo. ‘ GREETINGS AT ALEXANDRIA, THE NEW RULER WELCOMED BY BOOMING CANNON AND JOYFUL EGYPTIANS. ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, Jan. 16.—The Khedtve has come, and Mahommed Tewfk’s successor assumes the role of ruler of Egypt by consent of the Sultan of Turkey and the heip ot the strong arm of the British Government. Prince Abbas arrived in the harbor at 8 o’clock this morning. It would be dificult to imagine a more pic- turesque scene than that presented to-day by the harbor of Alexandria when the young Khedive was escorted intoit by the British man-of- war. The coust around the harbor is perfectly flat, the great light- house gt its entrance being the first object which rises above the colorless line of coast, the row of Wind- mis, light-colored buildings and the smoke of the steamboats. On a hill to the left rises the chateau of the Khedive at Ram- loh, a modern suburbof Alexandria, and to the right,.at the beginning of the entrance to the harbor is tne famous Bab El Arab (Be- douin Gate), extremity ofa line of fortifica- The harbor which the Khedive entered was the western harbor, the Eunostos, or Har- bor of those returning home in safety,’’ of the Greeks. This was the harbor which European vessels were permitted enter, they being excluded from the great harbor’’ or Eastern Harbor, now erroneous- ly termed the new harbor.’’ 2 Before passing Bab Eb Arab and en the Western Harbor the vessel having the Khedive on board was boarded by a pilot, 16.—Prince Abbas, the new | so small an army capable of fighting.

SOUDAN NOT A MENACE. BGYPT HAS NOTHING TO FEAR FROM THe rol LOWERS OF THE MAHDI. Carro, Jan. 16.—Father Ohwalder, who re. cently escaped from Khartoum, or rather from Omdurman for Khartoum has long since ceased to exist, was asked recently jt the British occupation of Egypt were to cease, would there be any danger of an at. tack on Egypt from the Soudan. The rever end gentleman, who has already said much on this subject, replied: The Soudan has never, in my opinion, been a source of danger to Exypt.’’ The Nile expedition proved abundantly what every geographer knew be- forehand—that the desert is of all frontiers, the most impassable. A hand. ful of men, a few thousand, could slowly Gescend the Nile from Dongola, to be cer tainly defeated on reaching Egypt, so long as the country has a government and ever Th Mestruction of Wad-El-Nejumis force by ( ol, Wodehouse and Gen. Greenfell in 1890 has probably putan end tothe risk of any at. tempt at a descent upon Egypt. Thus Egypt is left to itself, has nothing to fear from the Southand the Soudan danger can no longer be alleged as a reason for the British occupation at Cairo. But the future of the Soudan involwes a different question. Egypt left alone, whether under Turkish influence or not may have fresh desires for the Soudan. In case the gate of the Soudan ie at Suakim and this fact is nowhefe so well understood as at Cairo. 4 great deal depends upon the use which Cairo makes of Suakim. If Suakim is conceived of as the basis for trading enterprise, the peaceful re turn of the Soudan to civilization is only a matter ot time. If it were looked upon as a military base for re-conquest, the*finances of Europe would soon be in disorder and the cycle of Egypt’s troubles and of England's embarrassments would begin again. Per- haps the most promising feature in fhe im- mediate outlook of the Soudan is the return of Emin Pasha to his province. Emin, after all, is a civilizer, and his ways must be more acceptable to the natives than those of the Khaliafa’s head scoundrel at Fashoda. It Emin Can re-open the Soudan from the South, he will be entitled to rank high among the benefactors of Africa.’’ THE greatest Values ever offered are the $100 Solitaire Diamond Rings at Mermod &Jac- card Jewelry Co., corner Broadway and Lo- cust.

Shortly after 20’clock yesterday afternoon an assault took place on the second floor of the Commercial Bullding. Mr. George i.

McCoy ran into the street and boarded a car, but was arrested He was taken tothe Chestnut Street Station and charged with assault to do * bodlly harm. is friends balled him out. Mr. George B. Webster was seen at his office in the Commercial building shortly after the assault was committed. His head was swathed in bandages, and he appeared to be in much pain. „The whole story is this, he said. Several weeks agol wrote on behalf of a client to John C. McOoy, treasurer of the Mound City Cab Co., telling him that unless he arranged a ‘certain business matter information would given which would lead to his prosecution for o?- taining money under false pretenses. I saw him some time afterwards, and he told me that we would havea settlement. I told him that was just what we wanted. To-day, as I was returning from the Upurt- house, i saw a groupof men standing near the door of Dr. Broome’s office pn the second floor of the Commercial Bullding. As I turned the corner of the corridor McCoy sprang out from the group, came behind me,and tripped me up. I was mumed in a — 71 ulster, and in no condition to defend myself. As I lay on the floor he kickea me twice squarely in the face. He then seized my head in his hands, inst the floor, and then bit me on km Scott, the berber, ran out, razor in hand,and . to cut McCoy's throat if he did not cease, McCoy ran down meee pursued by Scott, and was, I hear, ar- on roadway.

Sioux Orrr, 10., Jan. 16.—An amateur at- tempt at mail robbery was made by four men in this city this morning. They lay in wait in the alley back of the Post-office near the rear door, where all the mail from the trains is delivered. The first mail was to be delivered about 6 o’clock in the morning, and, as the driver came in with four large pouches in a sied, his team was stopped and one of the robbers shoved a revolver un- Ger his nose ana told him to hold up hishands. He was so badly frightened that he seized the weapon and tri away. The revolver was dischar the ball went through the driver’s and a second shot was fred which harm.

St. Par, Minn., Jan. 16.—Wm. M. Bush- nell, ex-President of the Minnesota Agri- cultural Society, was to-day located at Adelaide, New South Wales. He fafied in real estate, with labilities of nearly $500,000 in November last and ran away. An examination of bis affairs developed a most remarkable system of mis- appropriation of funds and general swindling of his creditors, and the Grand-qury is pre- ingan indictment against him. The of- ense, however, is a peculiar one, and it 1s fearea he cannot be brought back here under the present extradition treaty with Great Britain, to compel a settle- ment of the claims. Creditors to the extent of over $300,000 at Rochester, - „N. v., Providence, R. I. I., have brought sults against i Trust Co., the assignee. The assets will scarcely pay ten cents on the dollar. SHORT IN HIS ACCOUNTS. A LEADING KANSAS ALLIANCE MAN IN SERIOUS TROUBLE. WicniTa,. Kan., Jan. I6.—J. W. Thomas, a leading farmerand Alliance man of Mont- gomery County and a trustee of Cherry Townsbip, is short in his accounts over $2,000. His term of office expired last week and his successor promptly found a deficit of $2,100. Thomas’ bondsmen are good, out they * either to see the loss made good or put Thomas be- hind the bars. The ex-trustee tells a gauzy story of having been held up by highwaymen several months ago and robbed of the money now missing, and says he kept the matter quiet because the robbers threatened him and his entire family with death if he made the matter known. Thomas was the Alilance candidate for Trustee of Montgomery County last November, but was defeated. He attended the Ocala Oonven- tion. and it is reported that the missing oe went into some bad speculation down ere. MOVED BY THE SPIRIT. A. MURDERER CONFESSES HIS CRIME DURING RELIGIOUS EXCITEMENT. BAULT STE. MARIE, Mich., Jan. 16.—Thomas E. Coulter, 75 years of age, decrepit, crippled and partly insane, had a falling out with his son William on Jan. 21 of last year. A certain quantity of hay at the old man’s farm was claimed by both. William went there one day to haul it away. He succeeded in obtaining a load, and was on the point of leaving with it when his father discovered him. Rushing out, the old man ordered his son, who was safe on a high foad, to drive throw it off. William refused and without much more ado shot his father dead in his tracks with a Winchester repeat- ing rifle. Noone witnessed the tragedy, and William Coulter, by a cleverly planned se- ries of lies, managed to swear himself clear of the charge when he was tried for the murder. Both lived on farms four miles from this city. In spite of the strong sus- icion against him he was acquitted by the fury and discharged. The matter was nearly orgotten until twoor three days ago the news spread through the neighboring farms that Coulter was attendin revival meetings being conducted by Methodists at the school- house at Hay Lake, near Coulter’s farm. A suspicion arose that a confession might re- sult and for two nights the schoolhouse has been packed. Last night Coulter went on the inguirer’s bench, or anxious seat, and was finally moved by the spirit. Coulter arose and in the midst of intense ex- citement stated that the Lord had told him to he had murdered his AS he proceeded he grew great! excited and he fairly shrieked out that after shooting the old man he had pounded his head almost to a lly with the heavy end of an ax.

THE EDWARDSVILLE MURDERER GETS A WEEK’S LEASE OF LIFE. 1 EPWARDSVILLE, III., Jan. 16.—Sheriff George Holz dia not execute Patrick Boyle to-day, All preparations were complete early this morning. Many visitors arrived, among them ex-Sheriff E. A. Burke of Chester and the Sheriffs of all adjoining. coynties. These were provided with passes to the execution. After the arrival of all morning trains preparations proceeded with dispatch ‘and the time for the execution was set for 10:30 a.m. A profound sensation therefore was created when at 10:10 a. m. a telegram from Springfield, signed by Gov. Fifer, was handed to Sheriff Holz, in which a reprieve of one week was granted the condemned man. The genuineness of the order was doubted by the Sheriff and his advisers, especially as it was known that the Governor spent yes- terday in Ohicago and also that the message was not received until 10 o’clock, two hours after the execution might have taken place. Added to this, a letter had re- cently been received from the Governor stat- ing that he would not interfere with the éx- ecution of the sentence passed by the court. The validity of the Governor’s telegram was verified. It is not Known just how this reprieve was brought about, but it is supposed that those who andertook to befriend this man, backed by his spiritual advisor, Father J. C. Daw who believes Boyle mentally deficient and hence unfit to suffer the death penalty, find- ing themselves unable to obtaina commuta- tion of BoyjJe’s sentence, still did not relax their efforts and at the last moment suc- ceeded in obtaining thisrespite. What use will be made of it remains to be seen. SHOT A WOMAN. ELIZABETH, N. J., Jan. 16.—Prosecutor Marsh was seated in his office this morning when Thos. Quinn staggered into the room. Quinn looked wild-eyed and frightened. His ace was bloated with drink. There was Mood on his hands. His clothing was soiled andtorn. The prosecutor demanded what Thos. Quinn wanted. ‘I have murdered a woman, said Quinn.’’ The prosecutor jumped out of his chair in surprise. What is that?“ said he. Quinn repeated, ‘‘I have murdered a woman. Then hetold the prosecutor the following story: He said that he had been living with Mrs. Snyder. He had been drinking with the womanall the morning. He quarreled with her over some old grudge he had against her. The prosecutor hastily called a poficeman and sent him to 17 Wash- ington avenue,the place indicated by Thomas Quinn. There he found Mrs. Charles Snyder lying on the floor witha bullet wound in her head and another in her breast. The woman was in a dying condition. An ambulance was quickly summoned and Mrs. Snyder was sent to the Elizabeth Hospital. No effort has ret been made to remove the ullets. At the hospital, the doctors sali Mrs. Snyder would die. Quinn was further questioned, It appears that he has had some grudge against Mrs. Snyder for some time, The mur. der appears to have been premedi- tated. It looks as f Quinn got the woman drink and himself drank, too, in order to get himself up to the proper pitch to commit the deed, Quinn would not say what the nature of the grudge was that he bore against Mrs. Snyder. Mrs. Snyder hastwo children, who are now being cared for by the authorities. Quinn is locked up at police headquarters awaiting the result of Mrs. Snyder’s injuries. The shooting occurred at II o clock this fore- noon. LATER—Mrée. Snyder died at the hospital late this evening. SUPREME PRESIDENT SMITH INDICTED. MANSFIELD, O., Jan. 16.—At the last sitting of the Grand jury five bilis of indictment were found against Samuel A. Smith, who was the Supreme President of the savings institution known as the Annual Friend. The indictments chargé him with embezzlement. Smith came here and organized a local branch of the order, which was in a flourishing condition when the order coltapsed some months ayo. The headquarters of the order being in Massachusetts, it was necessary to obtain a requisition before Smith could be brought here. A requisition was re rg for, but was refused by Gov. Russell of Massachusetts. upon a technical error inthe application, and the matter is still pending, with prospects that nothing will be accomplished. BRAINED HIS WIFE. BETHLEHEM, Pa., Jan. 16.—Late this after- noon, Mrs. Michael McNierny, 516 Mechanic Street, South Bethlehem, was found dying in a pool of blogd on the sidewalk. She was unconscious and was removed to her home and medical ald summoned. There are two large gashes in the back of her bead, evi- dently made by some sharp instrument. The doctors Dellieve that she cannot live until morning. Neighbors say that the McNiernys have been quarrelling all dayand it is be- lieved that McNierny tried to brain her. Officers are in search of McNierny, but so far without avail. STABBED TO DEATH. Lima, O., Jan. 16.—Louls Cookley was stabbed to death last night by Thomas Tignor as they were on their way home from church, some distance from thetown. Cockley was in company with Tignor's daughter, to whom he was engaged to be married. Tignor was averse to the match and last night assaulted Cookley, who was beatin him, when Tignor drew a knife and stabbed OCookley twelve times, one of the blows pene- trating the heart. Miss Tignor tried to separate them, but her lover had received his death blow and died in his sweetheart’s arms. Tignor gave himself up to the au- thorities. DEATH SENTENCE CONFIRMED. EI. Paso, Tex., Jan. 16—The Supreme Court death sentence of J. W. Ciayton, who, with Dr. W. 8. Bolton, is the supposed murderer of. Sheriff II. Cavitt, at Ciudad, Juarez Mexico, April 2, 1890. On that day the three men met, and Oervitt was shot to pieces. Bolton and Clayton were arrested. lton escaped to this side in December, 1890, in the disguise of a United States solder. Clayton was tried and sentenced to be shot. The case has been pending before the Supreme Court for over a year. RIVALING THE BENDEXS. GUTHaRIE, O. T., Jan. 16.—A United States Deputy Marshal from Chandler, forty miles east of here, tells of a murderers’ den, dis- covered in the Creek country. Some hunters spied a deserted house in a deep piece of timber, a mile fromthe road. In the house there are three rooms in a line with each other.

Prive Brurr, Ark., Jan. 16.—In the Circuit Court to-day fifty-nine indictments were re- turned against the ring-leaders in the recent riot at Linwood. M. Puryear,the white leader, and eight of the negro conspirators were at once arraigned and pleaded guilty as — — The indictments are for arson burglary and receiving stolen money, and are founded on the burning of the depot, Dr. Bryant’s cotton gin and store, and robbing the $500 package from the ex- ress Office. The lee will be séntencea n a few days, and, as thereare several in- dictments against each ohe, their terms in the penitentiary will be long ones, ROBBERS CAPTURED. McDonoven, Ga., Jan. 16.—The parties who robbed Mr. R. Brown at Locust Grove, Ga., some days since were captured by Mr. Brown and Sheriff Glass at Jacksonville. Fla., and were brought to McDonough this morning. The negroes’ names are James Morrison and John Singleton. Morrison claims Lawnsdale, Ala, and Singleton, Ma- con, Ga., as their homes.

Baxter, Chief Deputy Sheriff of Crawford County, ar- rived here to-day and secured requisition papers on the Governor of Ohio for Col, J. M. Weaver, who was arrested at Oincinnati. Col. Weaver was editor of the Van Buren Graphic and land agent of the Missouri Pacific Katlroad at Van Buren for some years up to last December, when it was discovered that he had embezzled funds of the road to the amount of about $20,000. Weaver disappeared at the time of the discovery. He was tracked to Ohio, and finally located in Cincinnati, where he ran a. restaurant. A BRUTAL HUSBAND WHITECAPPED. Kinocston, N. T., Jan. 16.—A party of masked men paid a midnight visit to George Bonnell of Stirling, Cayuga County, recently. He was charged with having treated his wife and children so cruelly that the woman went insane. After firing off their armsto frighten Bonnell, the mob broke down the doors of his house and dragged him, attired in the night shirt, through the snow to a neighboring tree. A rope was thrown over a limb and fastened about his neck. He was drawn up until he barely touched the ground. When let down he confessed his cruelty, and on promising to leave the coun- try was set free. Bonnell has disappeared and his family are in town. ROLD THEFT OF A CUTTER. GRAND RAPIbDs, Mich., Jan. 16.—Antony Lo- dema,a Hollander, this afternoon was driv- ing home in his old sleigh with a new cutter intow. Suddenly two young men driving a spirited horse dashed past him, and he noticed that they were also towing a newcutter. Looking back he dis- covered that his cutter had disappeared. He immediately gave chase, but was upable to catch the ld robbers, who were soon out of sight. When he reached the foll-gate he was informed that no one had gone through there, and he gave up the chase. THE JURY DISCHARGED. LEXINGTON, Mo., Jan. 16.—In the Criminal Court to-day the jury trying Quincy Britt for assault with intent to kiil, failed to agree, standing seven to five for conviction.

From the Chicago Mail. Stone sidewalks are unknown in Maine, remarked a drummer from Pottland at the Palmer House last night. Pine is too plenty and sawed stone is too scarce to permit even the best towns of Maine to enjoy such evi- dences of metropolitan greatness. At Batha Tew weeks ago an Indian woman who weighed about 800 pounds broke througha pine side- walk twice and the town officials were panic stricken. The Street Commissioner im- mediately sought the Mayor and informed that dignitary thata leviathan female had invaded the peaceful precincts of Bath, who was converting the sidewalks into kindlin wood to the certain damage of town an are Thee damage to herself. ** "If she breaks through the walk again,’ said the commissioner, ‘she may break her leg and the city will be responsible for dam- ages.

Written for the SUNDAY Post-DIsPaATca. . Bacterie, the minutest living particles, at - tack the human body in three different ways: First, they invade the system mechanically; second,they depriveit of the nourishment which they require for their own susten- ance, and third, they depositd their product in the body. This latter is the most jnjuri- ous of all, for nearly all bacteris@ breed posisonous products. The so-called ptomaine or toxine has been chemically ana- lyzed dy Prof. Brieger of Berlin, and from these experiments he concludes that even the smallest quantity is capable of Killing large animals in a very brief space of time. The eye appears a very fertile soil for the growth of bacterie and, as they increase at an enormous rate, it is easily seen that this delicate organ must necessarily succumb to such an onslaught. It has been demonstrated that a large proportion of the diseases of the eye owe their origin to bacteri@ germs; tu- berculosis, diphtheria, erysipelas, etc., attack the eye as well as other organs of the body. Iwill briefly enumeratethe three kinds of bacteriz that threaten the eye, and lay down general rules for their prevention and cure. BL ORRHOE AND ITS CONSEQUENCES. The 6yelids (Fig. 1 and 2.), as is well Known, are connected withthe pupil of the eye bya very delicate, mobile membrane which, how- ever, does not extend overthe center of the pupil, the latter being covered by the cornea (H) through which the ight penetrates and which must be clear and brilliant if the sight be For centuries physicians and the public have been troubled bya very troublesome disease, the so-called inflammation of the eyes of the new-born.’’ On the second or third day after the birth of a child, it happens frequently that the lids begin to swell more or less and athick, yellow mucus is discharged. This The Eyelids and Their Connection with the Cornea. mucus which comes from the inner surface of the membrane of the lids begins very soon to attack the cornea, producing there a canker- ous sore (fig. 2h). This sore either breaks and then the eye runs out, or it heals after many weeks and instead of the transparent, clear cornea there is left a white opaque l- ament which causes either total blindness or weakens the sight very greatly. It has been known for many years that tHis mucus is very contagious; the least drop that entered the eye of an adult caused the loss of the eye within three days’ time. Many ocu- lists have lost their eyes by attending those of children, wherea drop ofthis mucus was Spattered in their own eye. The statistical census of the institutes of the blind in Germany has demonstrated that up to within a short time. one-third ofthe blind children lost their sight by ‘‘bien- norrhoe’’ (an inordinate secretion and dis- charge of mucus), and that the loss of sight of one-tenth of all the living blind is directly attributable to this cause. The number of the blind in Europe is esti mated at 300,000, so that 30,000 of these have lost their sight by this disease. How many have sacrificed the sight ofone eyeor the partial loss of the sight of both eyes cannot well be estimated, but the proportion is enormous. The public has often been warned by pep- ular articles against the dangers of blien- norrhoe, for only immediate treatment brings relief, and that even is often uncer- tain, while every hour of neglect is fraught with evil consequences. While this act holds good to-day, as well as it d.d formerly, our knowledge of the = of the disease is very much improved, and the triumpus of prevention through the science of bacteria, are indeed grand. For many years the belief was held thata new born child was attacked with this in- flammation if allowed to see daylight too soon. andthe rooms were, therefore, kept correspondingly dark. At the present day we Know thatthe light has absolutely noth- ing to do with it. n 1879 Prof. Neisser of Breslau discovered in the mucus of the diseased eyes of children singular bacterlae, coece, which he called **gonococce.’’ , ‘hese are round microbes, which make their appearance in pairs. These cocc@ are passed from the eyelid to the eye the moment the child opens its eyes. They attack the tissues of the cornea and cause blennorrhoe. Attempts have been made to inocculate ani- Showing the Route of the Optic Verve. mals with this bacteria, but the expert- ments proved fruitless, The cocc @ are the parasites of the human system, and will not thrive outside of it. TAKE If IN TIME. The old adage ‘‘an ounce of prevention’’ is nowhere better illustrated than in this instance. The disease can be entirely ob- viated when the necessary steps are taken before the birth of the child, anda physician cannot be consulted too soon, particularly in families where one child has already been similarly afflic-ed. Where this has been neglected, there are still certain remedies, which remove the dis- ease lunmediately after the birth of the child. f. rede of Leipzig made in 1880 the wonderful discovery that one single drop of a weak solution of lapis infernails. (lunar caustic) applied to the eye of the child imme- diately after birth destroyed completely all bey | 7 gonococem' of whic Prof. Neisser The observation of this simple rule has been crowned with the most Uiant re sults. Whilethe lying-in establishments of Europe revealed formerly 10 per Cent of the children born there a ted with this dis- ease, it has now and in all the as Vienna, light of da t u. one of the tha ; childre that appeared — afflictea with thie ae = = ces there would be 30 680 lewer fn the world : ead for the second class of bacterie, ocy- lists have kno i eye is inj ‘an tris — 2 — 8 trates tion was solved by Prot. tschmann of Hamburg, who received th with his patient researches. : Prof. Rosenbach of Goettingen foreshad- owed the former in 1883 by his pamphlet the disco called the yellow grape coccus. These are 1, round tubercles which. n in dense. — — ea ps, resembling t clus- tering berries of the grape, hence thetr name. coccus is very tenacious of life;s u a watch- glass and keptina dry a ere it lived atthe end of ten days, and it can only be destroyed by submersion in boil- ing water. In gelatineit may be preserved forayear. Piaced in a little tube with solid gate there appear at the bottom (Ag. 8 T. R.) and two days afterwards little white spots which discharge water and produce an orange- colored substance. This coccus can be very successfully inocu- tated. Dr. Garre made experiments on him- self with it. By rubbing a bit ot it over the A healthy skin of his forearm he pro. uced a powerful abscess, which it requ weeks to cure, and which left behind lar scars. In this abscess the grape coccus dis- closed its presence in an enormous quantity. This grape coccus is found in eyery mucous discharge. , Deutschmann inoculated the eye of an - mal with this coccus and found that pending a very short time it had traveled along the optic nerve (Fig, (N) toward the brain, at the base of which (K) it pursued its way along the other optic nerve to the healthy eye. In Showing the Lach- . rymai Gland. this eye it produced an inflammdtion similar to the one which had heretofore been called *‘‘sympathetic infammation.’’ The grape coccus from the second eye could also be bred and transplanted again. The ‘‘sympathetic inflammation’’ of the eyes is therefore based upon the migratory habit of the bacteriz. They pass from one to the other of the optic nerves which cross at the base of the brain. And what is the lesson deducted therefrom? As it is impossible to destroy the coccus in the eye that has been first attacked with it, it is best to take it out entirely, to prevent the transmigration tothe other. The sacrifice of an eye isan unspeakably serious matter, but it is the only operation by which the second can be saved. The ‘‘chain coccus,’’ peculiar to inflamma- tions ofthe lachrymary glands (fig. 7) is as dangerous asthe grape coccus. So iong as the outer membrane of the cornea (H) isina healthy condition, this coccus cannot attack it, but should the same receive the slightest scratch, such as is often the case, when dust flies into the eye, this mucus causes the most dangerous infammation of the cornea, which leads to a rapid destruction of the eye. The knowledge that the bacterie are the chief causes of suppuration has not only been of immense value to modern surgery, but tothe therapeutics of the eye as well. Many oculists have formerly racked their brains to know why, afterthe most success ful and technically perfect operations for cataracts, the entire eye was lost in three or four days afterwards through ulceration. When the great master, Albrecht Von Graefe, had performed sixty-one cataract operations, none of which were attended by uiceration afterwards, he felt satisfied that he had found the key for this brilliant result. But when the sixty-second, sixty-third and the sixty-fourth led to atotal ulceration of the eye, he exclaimed in his distress: ‘‘ Alas, this shows that not all the windows of the 7. 7 8 are turned toward the side of the ‘his was twenty years ago.

T., Jan. 16.—A courier coming in from the Cherokee Strip to-night reports that there will surely be serious trouble on the Osage and Pawnee Reservations, in the Eastern part ofthe Strip. The Osage Indians have been very Insolent for a year past, and when a few months ago their agent acvised them not to treat with the Government Commissioners for the sale of their lands, that they owned it and thould Keep it, they at once became imbued with the idea of running things to suit themselves.

Lissox, Dec. 30.—It requires nearly four days of steamship travel from Southampton, England, toreach Lisbon, the seven -hilied city upon the broad Tagus. The first land you will see is the grand of Roca, the last upon which Columbus looked when, nearly 400 years ago, he sailed away from Lisbon with his three miserable little ships and his 120 men. Like a white dove’s wings spread upon an emer ald scarf, fair Cintra gleams against old Roca’s sides. Shortly your stoamer’s course is changed to the east. Cascase is passed. You have ente a noble bay, which is alone rivaled by that of Naples, and the horn of whose southern crescent terminates in lofty and somber“ Cape Ispichell. Moun- tains rise picturesquely to the north and east behind this crescent, purple and far and suggestive of illimitable lands beyond, where the great river makes its way through the heights from its sources round about the Spanish capital;emerald or puce where the sun, from its liquid bed in the west, lights the far forests and flames the serried heights. Quaint old outlying forts appear; fortresses of defense and salute. Then the outer bay narrows to the Ria de Lisboa, Lisbon’s mouth, anda narrow mouth and throat they are; bristling with forts, capable of perfect defense ia these days without a fort at all; and after a passage Sf perhaps six miles through this eep and narrow channel you have entered an inner harbor, twenty miles long and from three to seven in width, where 200,000 ships could ride at anchor in water scarcely stirred by wave or ripple the whole ear long. 8 The harbor scenes of Lisbon are full of color and charm. Towers and castles, churches and monasteries,show from all the surround- ing heights. The city itself is almost as white and luminous as Algiers rising from the sea, is fair to look upon. Oraft of all na- tions are here. Down by the water’s edge is the fine broad uadrangle, Praca de Commercio, or Black arse Square, as the English have called it. This is bordered by the huge Stock Exchange, the India Houee, the ‘‘Alfandega’’ or Cus- tom house, the splendid naval arsenal, and the broad quay at the shore of the Tagus. In the center is the hugest memorial in Lisbon, the heroic statue of King Jose I., whose his- toric reign was contemparary with our Rev- olution. Forty tons of bronze are in the statue alone, supported by a marble horse and elephant carved of equal size and sym- metry. To the east a little distance along the broad fine quay is the Praca dos Romulares, which leads into the Attero, a magnificent seaside traffic thoroughfare of perhaps two miles in length. In the former are denser crowds of boatmen and waterside folk, and here is lo- cated the Caes do Sodre where strangers are usually landed. Three fine, large streets extend North from Praca 40 Commercio, or Commercial Square. Their names correspond in English to Gold, Silver and Cloth streets, from concentrations of traders and tradingin manufactured ar- ticles from these cammodites. This section of the city was entirely rebuilt since the great earthquake in 1775, and forms, with the great edifices about Commercial Square, what may be properly termed the business districy of Lisbon. The northern end ofthese business streets terminate in another praca, or park or square, the Praca do Rocio. In common par- lance it is known as Dom Pedro Square. It 18 a splendid quadrangle, curiously paved with many-colored stones. The Theatre de Donna Maria, on the site of the Inquisition, forms its northern facade. The tremendous pedes- taland plinth of an unfinished monument to Dom Pedro I. stand in the center. This square is the favorite evening resurt of Lis- bon people. It is dominated on the one hand by the grand ruins of the Carmo, the monas- tery of the Carmelite monks, builtin the fourteenth century, and on the other by the Castello or vast castle of St. George from whose mighty walls the most glorious view of the city and environs can be enjoyed. Farther towards the mountain heights is the lovely Passelo Publico. This is the great resort of the better classes of the city, sum- mer and winter. It is not large, but it Is in- closed and exquisitely laid out in serpentine walks, shaded with numberless trees, and ssesses a wealth of statues, fountains, owers and birds. Besides these there is the interesting Praca da Figueira, or Flower Market, one of the most attractive places in Lisbon; the Campo Grande, over a mile in length, just at the edge of the city, where the riding and driv- ing of the aristocracy may be seen; the Campo de Santa Anna, where the noted Lis- bon Rag Fairis held weekly; the Praca de Sao Pedro d' Alcantara, a magnificently shaded promenade, witha shell grotto and fountains, overlooking the city and harbor, and a score of lesser pracas, squares, gar- dens and parks, where the wayfarer may tarry, rest and enjoy. Lisbon is peopled by perhaps 200,000 souls. Architecturally Lisbon in detail is vastly more interesting than beautiful. As you ap- proach it from the sea, with its domes and towers, all flanked by castellated heights and purple mountains behind, itis imposing a gran When you come to wander within it, you are never astonished or even greatly impressed by its edifices. Its churches are less interesting than those of any other city of equal size in Europe. The Church of the Heart of Jesus, on the summit of Estrelia Hill, in imitation of St. Peter's at Rome, without the callonnade, is the most preten- tious in Lisbon. The church of Sao Do go, the see of the Cardinal Patriarch, near the Rocio, is vast is proportions. The mortuary church of Sao Vicente is interesting chiefly from its containing, in curious gilt boxes, the remains of the illustrious dead of the royal House of Bragan ca. In many of the older public edifices the ar- chitecture is Moorish, or semi-Moorish, and the facades are often flanked by square tow- ers and diminutive Saracenic domes. ‘The general plan of shop and abode In the ancient — c= the city is, the shop below and the me above; or the lower story is used as rt of entrada to walled-in home structures the rear, or the habitation above, latter case these entradas are temporary shops for itinerant cobblers, cutlers, saddlers and the like, or loungin donkeys and 2 In the vant | : carries in her 8 ly and the sad . ay heavy N bind the tehed; — 11 A Feathered Meteorologist That wy) Have a Rosewood Perch on Chr istmas From the Chicago Daily Tribune.

One dying, the other grown too old to read, or his conscience spurring, re- turns it to the clerk of that county. The book contains 909 pages with clasps and sewn with catgut. The ae Fore employed is ofa dull, leaden color, and the writing is as legi- ble as on the far-away provincial Gay when Daniel McCarthy and John West first made the entries and took their tees therefor in broad-leafed tobacco. I was somewhat shocked in looking over this tome to learn that George Washington, our George, mind you, was forever being in- dicted and tried for falling to pay his taxes. Ihad never contemplated Washington as a tax-payer, but supposed he met his State and county afflictions with the rest of his neighbors. But it seems he did not. The Sheriff would bear with him patiently for a time and go round and try to coax it out of him, but when forbearance ceased to bea Virtue and it came down tothe last chicken on the roost he would invoke the ald of the court and the recalcitrant Washington would be indicted. This happened with a dismay- ing frequency, as the old record shows, and then when it did happen the nation’s parent, realizing fate, would step in and settle up, So, after all, George Washington always paid his taxes, but he made the officials weary before they got them.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Congressmen Know What They Want THE KENTUCKIAN REFUSES TO ACCEPT A PLACE end Will Ask for It. _ON THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE BOARD. ndsay of Nee C., Jan. 146.—Judge William K l Lindsay ot tucky called on the President to-day and declined the place on the Board of Interstate Gommerce Commissioners, to which he was recently appointed and con- firmed. The reason he gave for his action was the importance of his private engage- ments, which he would have to surrender in the event of accepting the office. Judge Lindsay enjoys the largest practice at the Kentucky bar, and besides is a member of the State Senate. The belief is that by refusing to accept office at the President’s hands he prac- tically deciares himself a candidate for the United States Senate at the next election for that oficein Kentucky. This declination is a disappointment tothe President. He wants a good lawyer for the Bragg —— and in Judge Lindsay he had found an excellent one. It is suggested that ex-Gov.

The social season with them has just de- gun. The most prominent and luxurious residence in this community is that com- leted two years ago by ex-Senator John B. enderson. It occupies an eminence over- looking the city and the placid waters of the distant Potomac. Mrs. Henderson's reputa- tion as a hostess is wellknown in St. Louis.

C., Jan. 16.—Congressman Dockery of Missouri, who has had an au- spicious opening in Congress in defending his charge that the United States Treasury is in a rather depleted condition, said to-night that as a member of the Appropriations Com- mittee and a member of the House, he could not afford to present figures to the House re- garding the financial condition of the Gov- ernment unless they were correct. As a member of that committee he was furnished | statement wee its req p- of $150,000 or more to give it valae asset. It was, in other words much awaiting coinage. Mr. claims that the right under THIS CONGRESS WILL OUTSTRIP ITS PREDECES- SORS ON BILLS INTRODUCED. Wasuircton, D. C., 16.—The present Congress promises to outstrip all of its pred- ecessors in thé naniber of bills and joint res- House 4.000. This is a remark- able showing in just one month’s time. The explanation is that the presert House is com- posed of an unusual! ylarge namber of new men, many of whom were elected upon pledges to introduce new measures. They are ie: out, therefore, their campaign pledges. ow many “of these measures will ever be heard of again is, of course, another question. WANT BACK PAY. MISSOURI EBX-SOLDIERS LOOKING FOR MORE COMPENSATION. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 16.—Senater Cock rell hasafull supply of applicants for as- sistance of one kind or another and is occu- pied much of his time in looking after these smaller yet important matters. He has just introduced a measure for the relief of Ezra 8. Havens, which proposes to give Mr, Havens a comfortable little slice out of the Treasury. Havens was Captain of Com- pany G, Fighreenth Missouri Volunteer Regi- ment, latterly and wants the yas Captain of the same company from March, 1562, to Feb., 1868, when technical grounds debarred him from such pay.

Discussion of the Measure Yesterday— i bate on the lists Plans for an Exposition at Berlin— Favored by Emperor William-—The War Feeling inthe Balkan States—Russian Intrigue—German Affairs. Berwin, Jan. 16.—There was an interesting discussion in the Reichstag to-day, in which Dr. von Rottenbury, Chancellor Caprivi'’s Secretary, tooka very prominent part and strongly advocated participation by Ger- many at the Columbian Exposition in America in 1893, German manufacturers, he declared, would best consult their own interests by sending exhibits to Chicago, where their products would be@ween by South American and other traders throughout the world. The ill-feel- ing entertained against America on account of the McKinley bill was all wrong. Every State had a right to protect its own interests. Other speakers took similar views, and the grant was passed unanimously. The House then proceeded with the de- budget. Dr. Witte said he boped the Government would come to a decision at an early date concerning the projected international exhibition in Berlin. Dr. von Rottenburg vaguely promised that the Government would favor the organiza- tion of a general exhibition. The industrial associations differ as to whether the exhibition should. be national or international, The pro- moters of the international scheme have been strengthened by the action of the Berfin Chamber of Commerce in declaring in favor of an international exhibition to be held in 1896. - Emperor William also supports the international scheme. The foretgn office crisis shortly that will lead to war between Servia Bulgaria, but no fear is entertained of active Russian intervention.

This response is held to be unsatisfactory, and the Bulgarian war preparations are be- ing accelerated. The best chance of preserv- ing peace lies in the weakened state of Rus- sia.

Warmouth and McEnery Represent the Leading Factions—A Chance for the Re- publicans—Kansas Democratsand Al- liance Men Talking Coalition—Missis- sippi Convention Called. NRW ORLEANS, La., Jan. 16.—Before the close of next week Louisiana will have an- other State ticket in the field, and by the middle of February there will be two more, Heretofore the gubernatorial contests were so one-sided that it was always with much hesitation and without hope of victory that the Republicans put up a ticket, but no sooner wasthe dissension in the Democratic ranks created by the lotteryapphrent than the promise of political tickets became very large. Duringthe past week a hybrid party composed of some disaffected Farmers’ Alliance men and a few representa- tives of labor associations in the city, under the leadership of T. A. Clayton, State agent of the Alliance, and T. J. Guice, ex-State lecturer, met in New Orleans and called a convention to meet early next month and make a ticket for the People’s party. The anti-Warmoth Republican convention meets here Monday and intends to nominate Judge A. H. Leonard of Shreveport for Goy.- ernor. He is the head of a prominent legal firm in the city, is 1 and politically popular. Should the party unite in support- ing him, or any other good man, with a free ballot and fair count the Republican party would have good chance of regaining control of the State, but the fac- tional fight is as bitter as ever. It was ex- pected that the authorities at Washington would take a hand in settling the differences before the convention of Monday, but this has not yet been done. Mr. Harrison has been informed that if the anti-Warmoth fac. tion secures command of the party in the State, the Louisiana delegation at Minneapo- lis will be opposed to him; consequently it was inferred he would cut off the heads of Internal Revenue Collector Wimberly of the Mint Herwig constitute the backbone of the anti-Warmoth element. Republican primaries have been-held in different parts ofthe State, but they have not been sum ciently decisive to demonstrate which faction isthe stronger. The First, Third and Fifth districts are for Warmoth, while Hero has a sure thing in the Second, and the opposition in the others are also strong. The lottery issue continues to be the dis- junctive element. Koth factions contend that they have nothing to do with the lottery, but Herwig’s presence among the forces ar- raigned against Warmouth is a bad sign, and other indications as well as the political precedents of the men in it, indicate that it will support the lottery. Inthe Democratic party the campaign is going steadily on. Ratification meetings are being beld in the ey parishes. The event ofthe week in the city was the letter of Chairman Crandall of the McEnery Cam paixn Committee to Register of Voters ‘lynn, demanding to know whether the Me- Enery faction would be given representation at the polls,and whether the latter would act in the excise of his powers asthe registra- tion law intends.

ATCHISON, Kan., Jan. 16.—fSentiment among the rank and file of the Democratic and Peo- ple’s parties in this section of Kansas is growing in favor ofa coalition of State and national tickets this year. It is believed that by the exercise of diplomacya bargain can be made by which the State can be carried for.all the officers, including the Legislature, thus taking Kansas out or the Republican column, expelling the Republicans from the State-house and electing a United States Senator to succeed Perkins, who was recently appointed by Gov. Humphrey in place of the late Senator Plumb, The result ofthe election of 1890 and of 1891 convince the People’s party managers that the cannot car.y the State without he ad of the Democrats.

The beauty, as ner name- sake and prospective-heiress, has a reasona- bie claim upon her generosity. It 2 one, ons. that the young woman most will- ioe 7 waives, her — at tmas times—she has been endowed with things that her aunt bought, wore and iaid aside the season before, and woe to the re- Sipient f she dares to leave them unworn.

It was as rich and costly as it was ugly and to the donor’s mind exactly the thing the girl needed to wear ata swell dinner party with dancing after it, two weeks in prospect. The victim of it thought otherwise. The invitation was the first that bad come to her from the really swagger set. Ifshe did not do credit to it it would be also the last. To goin that im ble gown was to fo m herself to social fafiure. What could she be Dut a dumb fright under the oppression of that rainbow horror? Yet not to wear it might cost her eventually a solid quarter million. It was a case of her faceor her fortune, and she did not care to sacrificeeither. There was — 4 2 lng for it but diplomacy.

Then the green remnant was velled and swathed in clouds of pink and white tulle, layer upon layer, with crystal drops here and there and trails of water grass and lilies on the corsage and about the walst. Thus gowned, with an em- erald pendant on her bare white throat, green slippers, green stockings, a white and green fan, the young woman was voted an Undine with a sou! and her social success assured.

She will study them right along now, and make up to look like her model. I would wager a dinner at Del’s she . was to see Bernhardt night, and the resembiance struck her. It is really there. In nine cases out of ten the doubles are in fact Itke the person they make op for—it may be the bund. the pose, the cast features or some turn of expression—but there is a real foundation to build on.

PARIS DRESSMAKERS They Are Waiting for an Intimation of the New Spring Styles. The dressmakers and milliners of Paris, writes a Correspondent, are just now resting on their oars,in anticipation of the first provocation of novelties for the coming spring. Two striking novelties in the way of bonnets have, how- ever, just made their appearance. One has been very appropriately christened the little animal’’ capote. It is formed of the long, slender body of the Canada marten, or the Russian sable, the skin prepared with the head, paw and tail and forming the brim of the bonnet, the tall being held in the animals mouth. The crown is composed of velvet anda Knot of rivbon completes the very original headgear. A little animal to match forms the collar and ornaments tothe muff. A very elegant set of adornments in this style is composed of the long discarded ermine, but it’ is decreed that for a lady to don that regal fur she must have royal blood in her veins. No less choice and costly furs than those I have just indicated are to be employed. Another nov- eltyin this line is the ‘‘jeweled’”’ bonnet, which is reserved for full dress receptions or for frst nights at the fashionable theaters. The frame is covered with tulle put on in full folds, and on this foundation is set three narrow bands in small diamonds. These are either genuine gems or Rhine-stones, accord- ing to the wealth of the wearer. FOR THE TOILET. Tortofse Shell Supercedes Ivory and Ham- mered Silver. In the way of tollet articles it is to be noted that tortoise shell ts the material most in vogue, having taken the place of wory and even of hammered silver. The articles are all perfectly plain, the fine quality of the shell employed constituting the sole orna- ment of the set, which comprises, not only the brushes and combs, but the tray, pow- der-box, ring- cup, and other objects, all highly lished. The tollet sets in silver&re in dead silver,also made per- fectly plain, without device or chasing of any kind. A curious freak of fashion has been the total suppression of the ojd fash- ioned toilet tables.

On the gauze leaf is painted a group of flowers, pansies and chrysanthe- mums being the most popular, and 80 ar- ranged as to appear to spring from the basket. Another late style is to have the fan-leaf in Diack grass or white gauze, bor- dered at the top with a pointed row of small massed flowers without foillage.

In small households, where every penny counts, it is harder to have a variety because many of thethings that afford a pleasant changeare extravagances unallowable, but it is truly remarkable how many changes can- be made by the skillful handling of our sim- plest and commonest products. Take those two heckneyed and oftimes much abused vegetables, potatoes and toma- toes; they afford any numberof the tasty dishes a good cook likes to make and a hun- gry family demands more of. Somebody who is fond of figures has counted fully 250 different ways of cooking potatoes, while the dishes that arealone madeof the tomato, and into which Jt can be successfully introduced, are well-nigh innumerable. Tomatoes give a delicious flavor to all vege- table soups, and there are two simpie soups, entirely differentin flavoring and composi- tion, which can be made with them. One is a milk and tomato soup, and requires a quart of milk, a pint of water, a large tabie- spoonful of butter, a tablespoonful of corn- starch, a pinch of soda, salt and white pep- when it is near the boiling point add the but- ter and the corn-starch which has been mixed with cold milk or water. Stir gently aptil it bolls up once or twice, and then remove the fire to vent it from curdling.

Do you wanta soup in a hurry that will warm your heart on a cold winter’s night? „cut up and boil four or five potatoes and one onion in just enough water to cover them. When very soft press through a sieve. and add a quart and a half of milk, a pinch of baking soda. two tablespoonfuls of tter, and let all bollat once. Serve up with cru- tonnes. If the soup seems too thin (it should be “pe! creamy in consistency), thicken with a little corn starch.

They are nice for dinner this way. What sins are committed in the name of French fried“ toes? There's only one way to succeed with them, and thaf is them in slender three- sided „ let them stand in well-salted cold water half an hour, and never drop them into the lard till it is sending up a faint blue smoke. The t secret of success is to have nty of lard,and not to chill it by putting in too many pota- toes at once. A double 2 is the Dest to use, because the perfora pan can be sus- nded above the outside pan and the lara rained off, but an ordinary deep pan end a wire . „ answer very well also. t touch the potatoes after they are in the lard till they are turning brown, then stir them ay! so as to get the bottom ones on top, and lift them out of the lard as soon as they are light brown. Not every one knows or be- lieves that the best way to cook potatoes with their jackets on is to put them on in cold water. NEW YEAR STYLES. Gowns for Teas and Falle—Gome Hints e Headgear.

The only . tion of the line at present completed fs St. Charles to Hamberg, only sixteen sities, Dut nearly sixty miles more has been graded, some thirty-six miles onthe west end of the completed portion, extending west from Hamburg, andthe belance from St. Charlies east. The intention of the new company is t cross the Missouri river at some point be- tween St. Charles and the mouth of the river, and enter st. Louis on the Merchagés Tor- minal's tracks. From Hamburg the line will run along the north shore of the Missouri River to Boonville, following the river the entire distance. At Boonville the river will be crossed and the road will then take almost a direct line to Kansas City. A new charter will have to be obtamed, but no trouDdle is anticipated as regards that. The old charter might be purchased but the compa- ny’s debts would have to be accepted with it. and hence it will be much chéaper to el new charter. Theold company sold a to the amount of $450,000, receiving 75 cents on the dollar for them, but for reason or other they were unable to rate any more. money and had to abandon the work. The contractors then took possession Of as much of the road as § had and organized themselves into tie American Construction Co, This com- pany has ever since deen operating the sixteen miles of the lime between St. Charles and Hamburg. Theroad is generally known as the Midland, although the off title is the Cleveland, st. Louis & Kansas City Railroad. It is also sometimes called the Missouri Central, the company which ob- tained the original charter for it. FOUND A BUYER AT LAST. The Amérécan Construction Co. tried td sell it for a long time without success, 41 though the deal seemed on the point of going. through several times. They offered it to the M., K. 4 T. and that road would have bought it then, it is said, had it been in con- dition to do 60. Several months ago, nearly a year in fact, a promoter, or broker, obtained an option On the road, and this option has been réhewed several times, the last time only a month ago, and that renewal has about two months sein to run. Mr. J. . Bethune, President of the construction com- pany, claims to be r the fact that the promoter has sold his Option, and that the purchasers are men Of capital who in- tend to cOmplete the road, but whether he what has taken place or the option be now owned Bridge Terminal Co, and a few capitalists on the outside, and the papers for the transfer of the line to the new owners are now being drawn up. The pur- chase price is not known absolutely on the outside, but it is supposed to be about 80, . The construction company has put about $150.00 into the road, including their orig- inal bis for grading and construction works generally, and will makea handsome promt out of the investment; $150,000 ‘doesn’t, how- Cleveland, &. but only what M has cost owners.

Coxswain of Yale's Varsity Crew—His Habits of Speech Heve Created a Great Scandal—Charges and Evidences, yorrnisTowN, N. J., Jan. 16.—On Monday will be resumed the church trial which is stirring so deeply the religious community of the staid town of Stirling. It is an effort on. the part ofa portion of the flock of Parson 4. c. Dill to depose that gentleman from the post of pastor. The trial began on Monday lust, but the pace ot the prosecution was 80 test that the defendant pleaden for an ad- gournment of proceedings fora few days to enable him to prepare for the final bout with nisaccusers. Accordingly the case was car- ried over until Monday next. The pastor’s full name is Arthur Cushing pill.

NEw Tonk, Jan. 16.—Dr, C. Ellsworth Hew- itt was arrested yesterday on one of the most awful charges ever made against a man. John O. Bowman, a prominent Philadel- | phia lawyer, charges the doctor with abusing his wife after placing her under thé Influence of powerful drugs, with forcing her tg “elope with him to France and then treating her with inhuman cruelty. Mr. Rowman ts suing Dr. Hewittt for $100,000 damages. Mr. Bow- man says that Dr. Hewitt was employod by him to attend his wife and children In the summer Of 159) and charges that the doctor, deliberately, wickedly and maliciousi planned, designed and endeavored and di succeed to accomplish’’ the ruin of Mrs. Bow- man and thereby robbed him of her affection, broke up a happy home and destroyed all his happiness in life. r. Bowman charges that one night in 1890 when he was absent in Philadelphia Mrs. Bowman called Dr. Hewitt to her room for advice. While there he charges Dr. Hewitt drugged Mrs. Bowman and while she was unconscious abused her? When she recov- ered from the effects of the drug, it is said, she discovered what had occurred and de- manded an explanation from the doctor, Then it is charged Dr. Hewitt told her he loved her and threatened her with exposure and shame ifshe did not consent to continue the intimacy thus forced upon her. For a time she was dismayed, but actuated by fear of exposure and influenced by Dr. Hewiltt’s promise that he would secure for her a divorce from her husbana and then marry her and in some way mysteri- ously controlled by Dr. Hewitt, it is charged that she consented to continue the intimacy. Mr. Bowman chargesthat Dr. Hewitt pressed her to elope with him and abandon her hus- band. In May, 101, he charges that Dr. Hewitt gave Mrs. Bowman a powerful dose of Morphine, then told her what he had given her, and refused to administer an antidote unless she would consent to elope. Mrs. Bow- man refused, and the morphine began to work. Then, it is alleged, Dr. Hewitt be- came frightened at what he had done, and fearing lest he might haye polsoned her, hur- riedly summoned other medical aid. Anti- dotes were administered and Mrs. Bowman recovered consciousness. During all this period and upto the end of July, Mr. Bowman says, Dr. Hewitt was em ployed by him as medical adviser to his family and that dy reason of his position iu that capacity was able to carry on this in- trigue unknown to the husband. atterscametoa climax on July 14, 101, when Mrs. Bowman was staying at the Devon Inn, a fashionable resort in the suburbs of Philadelphia. The husband charges that on that day Dr. Hewitt persuaded Mrs. Bowman to elope with him. According to the story she left her children behind, and with Dr, Hewitt came to New York. The French Une steamer La Bourgogne sailed from this port od July 25, and Mr. Bowman alleges that his wife and Dr. Hewitt were passengers upon it. Everybody will remember the account of the alleged elopement published at the time and the pathetic story of Mr. Bowman’s discovery of his wife’s flight when he went to the Devon Inn and first learned of it from his elder chila, Marion, then Little more then 6 years old. The affidavit goes on to say that the elop- ing couple landed at Havre and went on to Paris, where they livedas man and wife. It then alleges that Dr. Hewitt, having become tired of the woman, beganto treat her with cruelty. His abuse, itis alleged, became so terrible that the poor woman was obliged to appealtothe American Consul in Paris, to whom she told her whole story, and threw herself upon his mercy. He furnished her with means to return to America,and she landed here toward the end of September, 1891. She did not dare return to ber husbanc, Dut went straight to the home of her xirl- hoed at Holyoke, Mass., 1 her husband says she fs now living with her parents.

A BRIEF PERIOD OF PEACE IN SEWARD COUNTY. Bxamination of the Seven Men Accused of Dunn’s Murder Concluded — The N Uitia Companies Ordered Home — Judge Botkin in Topeka—An Interest- ing Interview. ToreKa, Kan., Jan. 16.— For the first time since the murder of Sheriff Samuel Dunn of Seward County, onthe morning of Jan. 6, there is reason to believe that events have so shaped themselves as to promise a brief period of peace in Southwestern Kansas. The examination of seven of the men accused of Dunn’s murder was concluded at liberal at noon to-day and the Kamining court adjourned for eleven days, when it will reconvene to give a hearing to such others of the accused men as may be apprehended in the meantime. Robert Hutchinson of Haskell County, who is acknowledged by Judge Botkin to be the man who posted him in advance regarding the conspiracy to murder him, was discharged. His arrest was caused by Judge Botkin, who believed that he would be safe only in the hands of the officers of the law. Herman Hinker and Charles Ornier, who were arrested the morning following Dunn’s murder while hiding in the grass in the vicin- ity of Judge Botkin’s residence, were held to await the action of the District Courton a charge of conspiracy to marder Judge Bot- kin. They were admitted to ball. C. 8. Anderson, Chairman of the Seward County Board of Commissioners; J. J. Leach, an old farmer living near Springfield; B. Orner, City Marshal of Springfield; Charlie Minton, son of the man who was a candidate for Sheriff on the Alliance ticket and who was beaten in the contest in court by Ray Guy- man, the Kepublican, and Rowen Chase,were positively identified by the survivors of Sheriff Dunn’s posse as being in the ambus- cade, and were held without ball, charged with murder in the first degree. Adjt.-Gen. Roberts, whoisin command of the troops stationed in Seward County, tele- graphed the Governor this morning that the Sheriff had notified him that the troops would not be needed after the ex- amination was over. In reply the Governor ordered him to send the militia companies home and return in person to Topeka. It was not known here to-night whether the Gov- ernor’s message had been received by the Adjutant-General in time for the troops to take the train which left Liberal for the East atnoon. If it was not they will have no op- portunity of leaving Seward County before Monday noon. JUDGE BOTKIN IN TOPEKA. Judge Botkin arrived in Topeka this morn- ing. He was accompanied by Sherif Ride- modr of Stevens County and Deputy Sherig Cusber of Sewerd County, one of the posse that was ambushed on the morning of Jan. 5. Judge Botkin announced that he had come to Topeka for the purpose of looking up some important law questions in connection with a case in Which the legality of the sale of a large amount of county scrip is involved. Me was at frst exceedingly reluctant to talk about the troubles in his judicial district, but uttered a sweeping denial Of all reports to the effect that be intended to re- sign his ition on the bench. He had a long interview this morning with the Governor and another this afternoon when the Assistant Adjutant-General, the Secretary of state and the Attorney-General were present. What passed then, none of those present will make public. It is known, however, that the State officers donot lleve that Judge Botkin’s resignation would have the effect of allaying the troubles in his district. They belleve that should he resign, his enemies would feel convinced that they had gained a victory and would endeavor to force any one whom the Governor might appoint to succeed Bot- kin to take sides with them. For this reason, Ut no other, they are not willing that the However, a plan has been suggested, and no doubt will digicuity. This is for Judge Botkin to hoid his position, but at the same time not at- tempt to preside at any of the terms of court in elther Seward or Stevens counties. The regular term convenes at Hugoton, Stevens | Coupty, next Tuesday. The Judge will not be present, but on Monday will telegraph to the members of the Stevens County bar, and authorize them to elect a judge pro tem. to serve during his absence. He will remain here for several days, when he will go to his old home in Linn County for a short visit. The stevens County term of court is the last one to be held in the district this month, and no more trouble need be expected until February.

The Wick freak of Harry Vanness, a ew York Married Man. Nese Yoru, Jan. 6.— Harry Vanness is a big fellow, 20 years ola, with a light mustache and full face and dresses stylishly. He is junior partner in the big livery stable of Hamill & Vannessin West Fifty-third street. Five years ago he married Thomas Hamill’s daughter at Yonkers. years in the fam his wife says, when the rich father-in-law found the business $7,000 short. Mrs. Vanhess went on her knees, pleaded with her enraged father, and in- duced him, after Harry had made an abject plea, to forgive the young man. Things seemed to go along fairly well then until the day following New Years, when Vanness tiled to appear withthe money to pay off the men atthe barn. They had to wait until Monday, when Mr. Hamill came himself. That same day about lo clock Alice McGuire, a neighbor’s daughter, disappeared. She took no clothing except her street costume, which consisted of a brown dress, brown- plate ulster and large red hat. The family an to think about Vanness, when at? o’clock the following telegram was received by Mr. McGuire: „Have left the city for ashort time. Will write when I get to Niagara Falis.’’ Vanness and Alice had metat the Fiftieth Street Elevated Station and gone to Twenty eighth street. They went alone to the Little Church Around the Corner, where Rev. Dr. Houghton was asked to marry them. This ood old man is so conscientious tn perform.- ng the rite that when applicants for mar- riage bring no witnesses he demands an oath from both parties that nolegal hindrance forbids the union. Vanness swore that he was single and they were married. They did not goto Niagara Falls that night, but to Washington. They remained there until last Thursday night,when they came to Hote Royal, Fortieth street and Sixth avenue this 1 7 Vanness it is thought registered as . I. Vernon and wife, Washington.“ Vanness while a big fellow in sige, is of a weak and vacillating temperament. His fix worried him, and the bride became much alarmed over her own fate, which her husband, no sooner were they married, began to paint in forbidding colors. Vanness remained but one night in New York. He deserted Alice early Wednes- day morning, leaving her a letter in which he admitted that he had intended to desert her m Washington, but that his conscience failed him, and so he brought her back to New York. He told her to go hack home, as he was mar- ried and could not live with her. The girl saw she was forsaken, and left the hotel without the proprietors knowing of her pre- dicament. She told ber story at home. Van- ness Wentto Philadelphia, where he wrotea disjointed message to his wife. He said he had been unconsciously attracted to the girl by filrting with der, and that he did not know why he had yleldea to impulse and married her, He begged forgiveness, but ald he should not return home. If he only had money enough, he said, he would goto Niagara Falls and commit suicide. lie also wrote another letter to Alice in which, having changed his mind about de- serting her, ne wanted her to wait until his wife secured a divorce which he claimed she was getting from bim. The natty little wife has taken her hus- band’s disappearance with great matter-of- fact, but before she went away yesterday she coyly admitted: ‘‘I didn’t know 1 thought so much of Harry until he went Away. Tarrytown is a slow old town, Mrs. Vanness thinks, after living in New York, so she thinks she wil] like to go on the stage. Poor Alice is back home close to her still faithful parents. The Hamm are out after warrants for their big, Dut rascally, rela- tive. 8 TOASTS AED SLOTURES. Two Evenings in Mexico With the St. Louis Spanish Club.

Russell against Attorney L. Frank Ottofy, which has attracted much attention from the lawyers, went to the jury and resulted ina partial victory for the plaintiff. The suit was a peculiar one, and it took two Gays to try it in Judge Withrow’s court. Some time ago, it seems, Mr, Ottofy, who occupied an office adjoining that of Mr, Russell, took a damage suit and won it, get- ting a foe of $2,500 for his services. it ap- pears that Mr. Ottofy, who is younger in years and experience than Mr. Russell, got the latter to give him some help in the eparation and management of the case. hen the case was won Mr. Russell asked him for half the fee butthe younger attorney refused. There- upon the present sult was entered. A num ber of prominent lawyers were called to give expert „ as tothe value of a young lawyer and an older lawyer’s time; also as to the —— * of brotherly love be- tween the lawyers. The experts testified that brotherly love wasan unknown quality, and that the older lawyers in their dealings with the younger legal lights were dis to nog all the fees. In his closing argument Judge Laughlin, who represented Ottofy u some vigorous language in his denunciation of Mr. Russell’s dema He urged that the case be dis- missed without giving the plaintif a penny. The jury decided after an hour’s deliberation to allow the piaintiff $659, a little more than half of what he asked. The younger lawyers were allin sympathy with oe and for this reason they did not like the verdict. The Hargadine Estate. A partial inventory of the personal estate of the late William A. Hargadine was filed%n the Probate Court yesterday. The total amount of personal property shown footed up a total of $495,259.45. It was divided as follows: Notes an‘ interest, $114,925.56; bonds and coupons, $20,500; stocks, $179,518.32; cash, $470.00; life insurance, $15,206. GERMAN GYMNASTICS. The Turnverein System to Ze Given Prac are" Weel Bemonstraticn. ~~ The German turners are to give an enter- tainmentin Music Hall, Tuesday evening oj next week, and the indications are that the hall will be crowded on that occa- sion. All the classes into which the active members of the vereins are divided will take part in the exercises. The object of the Ger- man gymnastic societies is not to make what a physician might call specialists in athletics—experts in particular branches of gymnastics—bat to cultivate All parts 01 the Physical body at the same time and to cultivate them in a way that will add grace to every movement made. The managers claim, as stated in a little pamphlet just issued by the St. Louis Turn- verein, thata sound mind should have a sound body and that a sound, healthy bod is best obtained by a regular course of physi- cal training. Tr. Wm. A. Stecher, the author, says that the dally occupation of the majority of men brings about one sided- ness. he aim ofa well directed gymnasium will therefore be to counteract these deform. ing influences. But what do we usually see when men or children looking for exercise begin to work in a gymnasium strong men will exclustwely cultivate such exercises as will make them stronger still and the result will be that they will become more y my. 4 Jampers will exercise their legs to det ent of their chest and arms and s0 on, Such persons have no idea of harmonious de- velopment. It may be taken as a rule that such exercises as bring about adroitness and Gexterity will always wutimately develop srrength, While exercises producing only strength will never develop grace and dex- terity.’’ accordance with this every turnverein devotes a great deal of time to calesthenics, marching, exercises with wands and dumb bells, and not only are the ladies and girls of the societies drilled in such exercises t the male members as well. The a ay ee wy of the entertainment at Mu- sic Hall is to be as follows: | Overture, **Olivette’’—Orchestra under the direc- tion of Mr. Chas. Vollrath.

Was in Good Health and of a Cheerful Disposition—No Letter Was Found and His Relatives Think That His Death May Have Been the Result of an Accident. J. Clark Glasgow, the son of William Hy, Glasgow, blew out his brains yesterday after - noon at 2:80 o’clock in his room in hig father’s house, No, 2741 Locust street. The few members of the family.who rushed to his room with the servants on hearing the report of the pistol, found him lying on the floor with a bullet hole in his temple and the pistol lying beside him. Dr. Frank A. Glas- gow and Dr. F. G. Robinson were sent for immediately, but arrived too late to render any assistance whatever as zthe young man had evidently died instantly. : LEFT NO LETTERS. No letters could be found in his room to in- dicate any cause fof suicide, ana he had given no signs of despondency in his conduct. He has only been tn the city a few weeks, having come home from the mines in Colorado, where he held a good position, to take atbet- ter one with a mining corporation in Illinois. He was-in perfect health and very good spirits and had been going about in society very considerably up to the time of the death of Mr. W. A. Hargadine, who was a relative by marriage. Nothing in his behavior yesterday indi« cated the slightest symptoms of despondency or any intention of taking his own life in the manner he did, Wien the family realized what had occurred they sent out immediately for the young man’s father, who had not yet arrived home from business. The news was broken to him as gently as possible, but it was a severe Diow to bim and he was almost prostrated. He went home immediately and 2 to see any but his immediate rela- ves. The young man was only A years of age at the time of bis death, and was born and edu- cated inthis city. His father is William I. Glasgow, President of the St. Charles Car Co., and his mother, who died about a year ago, was Miss Carlotta Sales. Me has a half- brother, Edward, and two sisters, one of whom is Mrs. Frank ©’Fallon, and the other sister, Susan, who is unmarried and living at home with her father. His grandfather, William H.

A Post-DisraTcu representative called at the late home of the young man last yh but the members of the family, who were feeling their affiiction acutely, declined to discuss the unfortunate matter. The deceased was, from the accounts fur- nished by his friends, of a happy disposition, and they are not disposed to the view that he deliberately shot himself. They claim if he had any troubie weighing on his mind he never 6 e of it and never seemed in any way depressed. — GERMANIA CLUB ENTERTAINMENT.

REAL ESTATE INTERESTS, mn A BIG WEEK’S BUSINESS IN IMPORTANT TRANSACTIONS. Property on Seventh Street, Opposite the Polytechnic, Sold for $900 a Foot—OCri- térions of Values on That Street Since 1889—Agents’ Reports. The real estate market was most satisfac- tory last week. There was a good demand. Prices were not only well maintained, but every sale reported was made at much higher figures than were ever obtained before in the respective localities. The southeast corner of Washington ave- nue and Twentieth street, 11¢x150 feet, sold at $300 a foot. That is an advance of $50 over any price in that localitz, .Whittier street ground, north of Lindefl, sold fn large parcels at $45a foot, and that is a good advance over previous quotations. A sale on Washington avenue 200 feet east of Whittier, was reported at 990 a foot, the top notch, and more than has been paid be- fore for ground in that neighborhood. Over 100 feet in the low ground on Lindell avenue near Vandeventer, was sold at $10 a foot. Calvin B. Richards’ place at the northeast corner of Grandand Franklin avenues was sold at $35,000. The six dwellings at the northeast corner of Laclede and Channing avenues were sold for $30,000. There was a 310,00 sale of tenement property on Arsenal street, between Nebraska and Ore- gon avenues. The distillery property at St. Louis avenue and Wright street was sold for $60,000, and numerous other important trans- actions were closed. The aggregate of trans- ters recorded, foot up $72,160, a gain of 8, 496 over the previous week. SEVENTH STREET VALUES. A sale of the premises numbered 12, North Seventh street, 218x135 feet, next adjoining the old real estate exchange building on the south, and nearly opposite the Polytechnic Institute, between Chestnut and Market streets, for 16,000, is reported by the Ghio Real Estate Co, With one rare exception, the sale to John A. Scudder, of the premises, including the fairly good buildings and Git feet of ground, at Nos. 85 and 27 North Seventh street, between Olive and Locust, for $82,000, or a little over $1,775 a tobt, the price reported by the Ghio Real Estate Co. is nearly $1,00a foot more than any inside property on Seventh street has ever been sold at. However, the property at Nos. 86 and @7 North Seventh street, the key to the very valuabie Olive street corner also owned by Mr. Scudder,would not afford a fair comparison as jo values.

An advocate of the serial plan of bunlaing associations says that after one has been es- tablished a year the to take stock in either of its series at any time after the first series have been closed, is greater and much more promising of profit than membership inany newly organized 4ss0- ciation. He explains this on the theory that ft costs $609 or more to organize an more than that sum, and that the of running it are about N. a year. the association has 1,000 it association, oF expenses make no more than its expenses, for the rea- | no more than $2,009 share association, will what if on without fs- it would be suing one or more it is claimed, t of an or stock in a new & an extra outlay of money. To join ciation that has been in operation a year the stock purchaser must pay the book value of the shares at the time he buys. If the pur chase is made when ‘the jon run two years the stock will 80 equivalent monthly dues for the preceding two years and the premium in addition earned by each share of stock within the lapse of the twenty- four months. It was to avoid the necessity of the pay- ment of so much money at the start that the serial plan was instituted. Another objected cited to the purchase of stock in an association that has been runnin th ears, is that the mos of its money-making an asso- y holders have about been supplied, When an association arrives at that riod its money esa burden, its funds are not sought after, and becoming a solicitor to place its money at profitable interest, subjects itself to dictation of terms, whereas, in the asso- ciation’s young life, when most of its mem- bers want to borrow, it is in a firm position to dictate terms. CORRESPONDENTS’ DEPARTMENT, To the Editor of the Post-Dianatch: There has been considerable earnest and very — — discussion among building association di- ectors and others concerning the matter whether it isasafething for one man to hold the sitiop of secretary of two or more bullding associations. The thought seems to be that handing and controlling the funds of more than one association a secretary is thus enabled to — , cover up a deficiency recs. from awiseppropriation of the money en- trusted to his care by his placing the funds of one company to the credit of another, aud thus having the proper amount of money in bank to its credit at the time his books are balanced, the bank account of the association from which the funds are taken be- ing. meanwhile depleted. ‘hile this appears to have been the method pur- sued by the Secretary of the Standard, Future Great and Keystone Associations in covering up his defal- cation for twelve months or more, yet where direc- tors look properly after the business of the corpora- tion and have ite accounts keptin a systematic aad business like way, no matter how many associations one person may be secretary of, 4 defaication is A out of the question, I do not mean to say this that the directors of the associations named above aid not discharge their duties as thoroughly as they ought to have done, for 1 believe the Stand- ard Association was one in which the Directors did the directing and not the 1 Bat the system of accounting in each of them, we fear in many other associations, was so defective and of such acharacter that directors could not tell from time to time whether the money collected was sppropria- ted in the manner they ordered it appropria and supposed it to be. tis manifestly wrong to permit the Secretary, or any other officer of such an organization as 4 bulld- ing association, to deposit its funds to his individual credit, or in such a way that they are subject to his individual check. This ts placing tempte- tion in avery inviting and insidious way fore any man, and is the prime cause of the Hesser defalca- tion. And further than this, itshould not be enow for the officers of an association to report to its board merely that there isso much funds on hand; the board should know how such a balance has arisen, and whether it agrees with the balance in bank. One pian of guarding this point which is fol- lowed with great satisfaction by the er of aa association in which l own stock—I VIII call it for convenience the Honest Building Association-—is very simplé and may be briefly stated for the benefit of others. In the first place the funds are deposited to the credit of the association, and are paid out only on the order of the secretary, countersigned by the president and treasurer. The secretery has the bank-book balanced once amonth, showing the same balance in bank as the balance reported by bim, if all the deposits and entries have been prop- erly made. This is exhibited by the secretary tothe Finance Committee and to the board iteeil at the regular monthly meeting, and esch member thereof can examine it for his own satisfaction, noticing of course whether the collectibas made on the day of meeting were deposited the day after in the bank, this le to say if the monthly meeting fell on the 10th, the deposit-book should show a deposit of all the collections on the IIth. The Secretary at this meeting makes a report of the financial transactions for the preceding month. He begins with balance on hand, same as will appear from bank book dulv balanced, and also from lis cash book, and his report will be like this: Dec, 1, 1890]1—Baiance in bann RECEIPTS. December collections of dues December collections of interest December collections of fines Proceeds of notes discounted at ban 3 . 222.000 Less discount ä oun 125 4,875 Transfer fees a Account loan to Hackey-Nelsoa, contractors B00 1,000 $2,000 Account lean to Brown-dJames, Coutractor ....... 1 606 0 +00600063608 BOOS Salary of Secretary Balance in bank as per bank book..... To corroborate or check the correctness of the above statement the president reports the amount of the promissory notes of the association executed by him during the month, the proceeds of all of which should appear as receipts. The Treasurer also re- poste the aegregate of the checks signed by him, and his should agree with the disbursements as reported by the Secretary. Under such a plan as Mes the Hesser steal could not have been made, and whether amanis secretary of one association or of 1x asso- clations makes no difference. Now, is there any way in which any kind of «6 steal or misappropriation of the funds of the Honest Bullding & Loan Association can be made by ite sec- retary, presuming the Board of Directors and the other officers regularly attend ite meetings and care- fully observe the reports that ere before them monthiy.

SOCIATION TEAMS. ‘What Does the Revengeful Magnate Want With the Club?—Funeral of ‘‘Silver”’ Flint To-Day—The Indoor Athletic Games Next Saturday-Pugilism, Si- cycling, Base Ball ond Other Sports. . LOvVISVILLE, Ky.,Jan. 16.—George Willidms, the Chicago base ball man, is here, and wants to acquire an interest in the Louisville Club, and also to secure the transfer of Pfeffer from Chicago to Louisville. The Louisville direc- tors will holda meeting this afternoon, and it is said are very willing tosell Williams an interest. They also want Pfeffer upon any reasonabie terms. The above telegramis ve significant in view of the threats made by Mr. Williams to „do up! the American Association for the manner in whichthey treated him by over- throwing the Chicago Association Club after tting him to organize it, At the meeting at ndianapolis, at which the consolidation of the Leaxue and Association was perfected Mr. Williams agreed that if the League would not consolidate with the younger body the Chicago Club would withdraw from the As- . gociation, and that with the withdrawal of Boston and weakn@ss of Milwaukee, Colum- bus and Loutsville would wreck the organi- gation and givethe League a monopoly. If Mr. Williams was willing to wreck 2 then would he not ooks very is merely acting for the League in this mat ter. They already control eight of the twelve ciubs in tue new organization. By securing Louisville they will have nine, and witb nine votes they can make any change trey see fit in the constitution, They can change the clause requiring the vote of the entire twelve teamstodrop a club and can make nine votes rule and then drop out the other three Association teams and do away with Louisville after it bas answered their purposes. Ihis will leave them with- out a rival organization and they will have only their original eight clubs in thetrown circuit. Even if they do not drop any clubs they can pass any legisia- tion they see fit, with the aid of Loulisville’s vote, and make things decidedly uncomfort- able for the old association teams. Williams will probably claim that he is buying partly for friendship for Pfeffer, who wants to play in his own home, and also because he thinks that under proper conditions, etc., base ball can be made profit- able in the Falls city. That is not a story, however. One thing is cer- tain—if Williams gets control of Louisville it will not do the old Association clubs any for he will vote agaimst them with the gue every chance he gets and injure them every way he can. And he is justified in doing so, too, after the shabby manner in which they treated him. much as FRANK FLINT’S FUNERAL TO-DAY. The funeral of Frank Flint, better known in the base ball world as Silver“ Flint, will take place at 2:30 this afternoon, from the home of his brother, Albert, at 2939 Dayton street, and the interment will be in Bethania Cemetery. Yesterday afternoon there were services in Chicago at Flint’sresidence. The remains will arrive in this city this morning ‘in charge of Joe Guest and M. Gross, and possibly Ed Williamson, and will be met at the Union Depot by the brother and relatives. The funeral services at Chicago yesterday were attended by base ball men and others, among them we President Hart and Capt. Anson of the Chicago League club. The floral offerings were very numerous. There ill also be a number of floral pieces at the eral in this city to-day, age | them be- ing a piece from President Von der Ahe of the St. Louis Club. Although Flint has Deen away from this city for years he was well known here, wherehe had been raised and learned to play ball, and was very popular. BOSTON WANTS KELLY. New Tonk. Jan, 16.—Nothing has yet been done by the New York Base Ball Club towards signing Michael J. Kelly, Manager Powers visited Boston last Monday and had a con- ference with President Soden, but the Kelly matter was only referred to indirectly, From a dispatch which recently appeared in the WORLD it appears that the triumvirate are not as willing to release the — 4 as they were afew weeks ago. Of course if they will not give up Kelly without a bonus, there is no ifkelihooa of the local club making any at- temptto sign him. Director Talcott is un- derstood to still be opposed to securing Kelly, but if he can be had for the asking it ts hardly probable Mr. Talcott will inter pose any posi- tive objection. Even Buck Ewing says in rint he would like to see Kelly on the team. e matter will be allowed to rest fora time. WON'T PLAY IN WASHINGTON. Danny Richardson will not play next season in Washington, the city to which he was as- signed at the indiana polis convention. He may not play anywhere. This information comes from Eimira and may be relied upon by those interested as correct. Rich- ardson last fall signed a contract to play with Philadelphia. He is ready to carry out that contract, but he is determined not to play in Washington. As the season approaches Richardson's case will attract no end of at- tention. He is not given to making idle statements, and when he says he will not go to the Capital is word can be _ relied upon. He was the most popular player in the New York Club last sea- gon, but through the stupidity of the directors he was allowed to sign with the Wagners for next season. Now the local club would like to get him back, but are power- less to do so. Richardson prefers to play there. But he will probably be forced tothe alternative of going to Washington or leav- ing the diamond. He has a profitable busi- ness in Himtra, and it would increase were he to devoto himself to it during the summer. The Wagners may decide to make a dea) for his return to the New York club, but there are no indications of such action on their rt at present. It would save considerable uble, however. THE BROOKLYN TROUBLE. Happily the row in the Brooklyn Base Ball Club has been settled out of the courts. Dt- rector F. A. Abell has bought out Mr. Doyle and so the trouble ends. The eonesciidation ofthe League and Brotherhood clubs Is as as effected. Director Abell and Director ‘endell Goodwin will hereafter vontrol the policy of the club. Charles A. Byrne will continue at the head of the concern. Of the Board of Directors, Mr. Abell will name three and Mr. Goodwin two. Mr. Goodwin will select Mr. Byrne as one and Mr. Abell will name Mr. Goodwin as another. Mr. Abell willbe Secretary and Treasurer. Manager John M. Ward has just returned from a southern shooting trip and willl begin sign- ing players at once. Brooklyn’s rey ist will probably be about $10,000 less than last season. Aman who will attract considerable atten- tion from the base ball public next season is Fred McCrum,. Ue has been selected by Pres- ident Young as one of the Lebnue stair of umpires, and he . sesses all the qualifications hat enable men to fill the position without loss of life. McCrum is an excellent @mateur player. Last year he umpired successfully in the Am- ateur Athletic Union League, e was , 1s 6 feet in Jamestown, N. I., 41 years a tall and weighs 200 poms. For fifteen years he ha beon inthe telegraph business and is a most proficient operator, The reliability and g judgment on the field are his char. cteristics, and 1 believe he will please base bail patrons. : moat always inioresting e lege Mr, J ways interesting gen r.

President James Hart says that the League will be formed with the fol- ing cities represented: Minneapolis, St. Paul, Omaha, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Indianapo- lis, Cclumbus and Toledo, EARLE SIGNED.

Promptly at 8 p. m., Jan. 23, the first indoor athletic gamesand cycleraces ever held in the West will be started at the Armory under the auspices of the Missouri Bicycle and Ath- letic Club, and hundreds of the local devo- tees tothe sportsare eagerly anticipating the event. Never before have the entries for the various contests been more numerous, and exciting sport will be witnessed by all who attend. The racing programme is ju- diciously ordered and the prizes varied, attractive and costly, representing a value of $500. The appearance of nearly allthe crack riders and athletes is assured and a very large attendance is expected. The various tracks will be surveyed and laid out to-morow, and every precayition will be taken to make the turns on the: bicycle track safe for fast riding. The entries closed last Friday, and among the men who will compete in the cycle events are George K. Barrett, Chicago; John Hurck, John W. Bowman, E. M. 2 J. A. Darnell, J. Harry Borgess, %. M. Tidd, M. B. & A. C.; Bert Harding, John Weaver, G. E. Tivy, R. M. Milford, L. J. Ollier, Fred Fath, Gus Loeffel, St. Louis Cycling Club. The handicapping is in the hands of Official Handicapper Stone, who wilitake special pains to see that justice is done to all. Ine games will be managed by several ofthe old M. A. A. C. members and they promise that the events will be promptiy started and that no annoying delays, which frequently mar the success of sports of this kind, will occur. An elaborate programme will issued. No smoking will be permitted in the hall during the — 8 of the games. The dressing-roams will be located down stairs and can easily be reacned from the hall by a separate stairway. MEETING OF THE L. A. W. In accordance with sec. 1, art. 5, of the constitution, President Dunn has called the annual meeting of the National Assembly of the League of American Wheelmen, to be held on Monday, Feb. 15, at Columbus, O., convening promptly atl0a.m. At the meet- ing the officers to serve during the coming year are down to be elected, with the excep- tion of the President, whose term does not expire till next January. It is now stated, however, that President Dunn is to resign. If this is true his successor will, of course, be chosen, and there may besomethingof a fight for the office. Thomas F. Sheridan of lilinois and George F. Perkins of Massachu- setts have been waging a hot contest for the office of First Vice-President, and they have been backed by their respective sections. Ne that Dunn is to resign both will probably be candidates for the presi- dency. One may be made President and the other Vice-President, Secretary Bassett and Treasurer Brewster are pretty certain of re- election. Among the questions to be dis- cussed will be the improvement of highways and the action of the Executive Committee in voting the lion’s share of the funds towards publishing the new magazine entitled Good Roads. It is the general im- pression that the Assembly will leave severely alone the question of regulating the value of prizes to be given at race meetings as well as cash prizes. President Dunn’s resignation is to take effect Feb. 24. The reasons he assigns are that the rapid growth of the membership and the ever varying con- ditions affecting the League’s government, have rendered the duties of the executive burdensome and caused the neglect of his private business. ‘CYCLING CHAT. Fred Patee of Peoria was in the city last week. W. B. Kewpis is back from a short trip to Des Moines. J. S. Bretz of New York was the guest of Will Laing during the week. All the athletes have putina hard week’s traiging for the indoor games. Pedria has 750 gentlemen and seventy-five lady bicycle riders. Thetown will hold no tournament this year. A solid gold watch was presented to Albert H. Hutchings last night for having secured the most new members in the Mu. B. and A. C. last year. Chairman — of the State Racing Board has a racing circuit in contemplation which will embrace all the fairs in Northeast Mis- souri. J. W. Bowman is longing for the return of spring and good roads. lle will make a strong bid for the Missouri’s mileage cup next season. The Missouri’s pool tournament is yet the attraction atthe Club house aud continues to draw well. The concluding games will be played next month. Snow riding is fast becoming a popular fad with some of the bolder riders, and both cushion and pneumatic tired wheels are said to answer the purpose admirably. The disappearance of ‘cyclists clad in knickerbockers has been generally noted in this city since the Introduction of the safety, in spite of the fact that the chainand sprocket wheels are death on long trousers. In En- gland a baggy, loose knickerbocker is now generally used, and is greatly preferred to the close-fitting cut of the average club uni- orm. It is a foregone conclusion that the comin elections of the Missouris will be lively — fully up tothe great interest taken in them last year. This speaks well for the future success of the orwanization. Some private canvassing is being done and a number of good men who have long been connected with the club are spoken of as candidates. Itappears to be generally understood that the next national meet will be held at Wash- ington. State Divisions have generally in- dorsed that city, and although the District of Columbia Division has but 200 members, an effort is being made to raise a guarantee fund of $2,500 with which to entertain the League. The League can make an Imposing appear- ance in parade atthe capital, with its miles of asphalt streets. THE RING. BILLY MADDEN’S GOOD OPINION OF MAHER— OTHER PUGILISTIC MATTERS. New YorRK, Jan. 16.—Although Peter Maher is comparatively a new comer in the long line of aspirants for the championship, he is regarced by a number of men in this town asa world-beater. Billy Madden, his manager, honestly believes that Maher can whip any manin the world, but he would not be a good manager if he did not say this. Still Madden offers to bet $5,000 on his opinion and promises to put up this amount of money to-morrow, If he does put it up it will show beyond a doubt that he is sincere in his opinion of the Irish champion. 1 do not want to challenge Suliivan,”’ says Madden, because the minute a man challenges the 13 he is in for a roast- ing all around. van is only human, and he is bound to be beaten some time or other. If he 1 I would rather see an m than an Austral was jan or I forced be fight.

Choynski has been whip three times, twice by Joe Goddard and once by Corbett. Still he has scored a number of victories over fair men, and he is likely to make it lively anybody. In my 3 ment Joe Early had something to do with Fitzsimmons’ sudden change of mind in connection with Maher. After post- tively declaring that he would fight the h- man or Corbett, Fitzsimmons announces that he will not try Maher under any circum- stances, but he does not fear Corbett. Early Tom Callaghan at Fitzsimmons peace in y St. Louis, and it is altogether ikely that he ‘‘tipped off Peter's hand to the Australian. If he did he spoiled what woula have been a very interesting battle. Fitzsimmons must hold Maher a®etter man than Corbett. He would have to give nearly forty pounds tothe latter and on weight to Maher. THE NEW ORLEANS CLUBS. These two New Orleans clubs—the Olympic and the Metropolitan—have spread lines all over the country for star pugilists. Money appears to be no object to them. Noels and Geslinger, who run the club, are dead game sports, and there ts no telling what one would not give to secure a big match from the other. Geslinger has offerea $12,000 for Litzsimmons and Hall. That is a good sum of money, to be sure, but Long Bob’’ leans toward the Olympic Club, and he won't fight Hall anyway, says. Sothat ends the mat- ter unless Fitzsimmons shiftsagain. Olym- pic Club’s offer of $10,000 to Maher and Choyn- ski for February is certainly a stunner, but the club will lose nothing by giving it. There will be thousands of visitors in New Orleans at Mardi Gras time. Enough of them to fill the club’s amphitheater at $10 a head will want to see the fight. So John L. has taken the pledge! He could not do a more sensible thingif he really in- tends keepingit. His lecture on temperance to the good people of Tacoma must have been well worth — * John is not eloquent, bnt he is certainly original. He hashad a long experience fighting John Barleycorn and could tell many stories if he chose which would serve as a warning to young men. If John would keep his pledge for a year be would make a sorry sight of any of his rivals in the ring. Another week gone and still Slavin has not found a backer. He has been saying very little about Sullivan lately. He has a ten- weeks’ engagement with M. B. Leavitt at a salary, and he should be well able to back himself in a match with Sullivan before he leaves for England to fight Jackson. Cal McCarthy is not in the least alarmed by all the talk about Tommy Callaghan's terri- ble hitting powers. Calcan punch a bit him- self, or could at one time, and he has not forgotten how to use his hands. Should Cal- laghan beat the Jersey man, Joe Early will match him against Dixon for $5,000. Mc- Carthy will be the favorite. ATHLETICS, INTERNATIONAL ATHLETIC FESTIVAL SCHEME—TOMMY CONNEFF. New’ Yorg, Jan.16.—The Maryland Athletic Association and Club-house have been incor- porated at Baltimore, the incorporators be- ing John Gill, John A. Hambleton, Alex. Brown, William B. Olliver, Tunstall Smith, L. Riggs, G. Ober. and Allen McLane, Jr. The capital of the association is to be $200, - 000. The backing of this association is very strong, and there is no doubt but that the club- house will be built at an early date. T. P. Conneff has reached Ireland safely, and is already in receipt of a number of challenges from professional runners. Among others he has been challenged by W.G. George and Harry Darin. Corneff, however, has not yet accepted any of the challenges. It is not likely that he will run for at least three months. The proposition by J. Ashley Cooper with reference to holding an English festival cov- ering contestsin track events, cricket and rowing in England every four years, isa move in the direction of the advancement of amateur athletic sports which should be en- couraged to the fullest extent. It seems, however, thatit should be madeto go both ways; that is, that the first meeting, held on precisely the same lines as suggested by Mr. Cooper, should take place at the World’s Fair at Chicago next year, thus insuring two festivals to be held every four years, one in America and one inGreat Britain, with pe- riods of two years between each festival. One can not imagine anything that would be productive of more good than the English festivals on account of their international aspect, and the word in- ternational is used advisedly, for I am fully conversant with the idea that they are only to be international in the sense that they in- clude the English speaking people of different countries. One of course fully appreciates that our Australian friends might deem it proper and fairtourge that the festival be held every six years instead of every four, every two years in Great Britain, every two years in America, and every two years in Australia. As @& means of getting at some- tning definite there could very easily be ar- ranged for a meeting of the presidents of college associations and the presidents of the large athletic and cricket clubs of this country, Australia and Great Britain to be held in their respective countries, so as to settle upon some plan of organization upon which the scheme could be formulated and carried to a successful conclusion. The meeting of the Metropolitan District Association of the Amateur Union, to be held Tuesday, Jan. 19, at the Astor House, promises to be avery interesting affair, the matter of the Ong Island Association case will be brought up for final adjuditation, and itis more than likely there will be some action taken in reference to the reinstatement of the amateur athletes disqualified for participa- tion in the recent games of the Seventh Kegi- ment Athletic Association. It would seem as if the A. A. U. Committee, appointed to con- fer with the L. A. W. Committee with refer- ence to the equalization of prizes, should take some, action, so as to bring about an early settlement of the question. It is also likely that there will be some action taken with reference to the National Cross Country Association case at the meeting. THE LOCAL SPORTING. TO-MORROW NIGHT’S WRESTLING MATCH— „ BOWLING, FOOTBALL AND OTHER MATTERS. A wrestling match is to take place at Enter- tainment Hall, Exposition Building, to-mor- row evening between George Baptiste of St. Louis and A, F. Kasten of St. Joseph. They wrestled a mixed match at the Missouri Gymnasium last week, which was won by Baptiste. This was his first professional match. The match to-morrow night isto be decided under catch-as-catch-can rules. This is favorable to Kasten, as it is his best style, while the St, Louisian makes a specialty of Gre co-Koman wrestling. Baptiste is well known locally, having held the amateur middleweight champanionship for some years Kasten has @ national reputation, haying wrestled **The Jap, James Messenger, Tom Connors, Nelson Golden and a number of less noted men. The match is looked forward to with inter- est from the fact that the men are very evenly matehed, and judging from their last contest, itis expected thata very stu bborn and spirited battle may be expected. If ptiste wins he will probably make other matches, as he expects to devote most of his time hereafter to wrestling, and some of his friends believe him to be invincible at his weight.

Who will ac- commodate him? The majority of the local athletes are mem- bers of the various foot-ball clubs and will, therefore, be in good shape for the indoor games. The tug-of-war and wrestling contests to be given at the indoor games are two events which promise to be intensely interesting. The Missouri Gymnastum tug-of-war team at the indoor games will average 210 pounds. The M. B. and A. C. tug-of-war team at the indoor games will be as follows: McDonough, Leahy, Mcinroy, Sutherland, substitute, F. Leacock. Never in the history of the Missouri Club has there been such an open eventas the 100 yards scratch for members at the indoor games. There area dozen contestants, each of whom believes himself to be the fleetest man in the club, J. Kloblewhite, the English champion run- ner, has resigned from the Spartan Harriers, the club he has represented for years, He will compete in the cross-country champion- ships for a combination called the Essex Beagles, a club that will give the Finchley Harriers a hard rub for first place. ‘ In the recent three-mile team race between the Dublin University Harriers and Hadding- ton Harriers the result was a sensational dead heat. Ateam of New Zealand athletes will visit England next season. Hawksley of the Olympics is in good shape and will run the fifty yards in close to6 seconds at the indoor games.

Programme for the Opening Next Satur- day—Bookmakers Arrested at the Gut- tenburg Track—Horses Who Won Over $4,000 and Less Than %$5,000—The Jockey Club Election—Racing News. There will be but one race track on the East Side after all. Messrs. P. A, Brady and John F. Donovan, who were to have con- structeda mile track at Denverside, have consolidated with the East St. Louis Jockey Club people, and abandoned their original scheme. Donovan, Brady, Applegate and other big bookmakers were to have put about $60 ,000 into a mile track at Denverside, according to their claim, but by joining in with the Ul- man faction in the East St. Club, the mile track project disappears and the good people of Illinois will have to con- tent themselves with a three-quarters of a mile course. The new track seems to have plenty of backing and everything indicates that they will be ready toopen next Satur- day, the time announced. Arrangements have been completed to have the electric cars on the bridge carry passengers to the track from this end of the bridge in twelve minutes, landing the peuple near the grand- stand. John Carter, the presiding judge, and Jack Chinn, the starter of the course, are expected here next Thursday. Already there are quite a number of horses here to take part in the meeting,among them stables from Garfield Park, Chicago, and the East. The races are to be started at the track at 1:30 p. m., the betting on the Eastern races commencing at 12:45p.m. Of course the new track is relying largely on the re- ceipts from the Eastern book, as it will be the only place where the St. Louis betters can play the Eastern and outside races. Ac- cording to the programme, fo far prepared, there will be five races a day—four for purses of $200 each and one fora purse of $300. The opening day, however, there will be a race for $500 instead of $300. It is called the East St. Louis Handicap. The programme in full for the opening day will be as follows: First race—Inaugural dash, flve-eighths mule; $200 of. which $35 to second and $15 to third. Por all ages; to carry 100 pounds. Second race—selling, eieven-sixteenth mile; $200, of which $35 to second and $15 to third. For maiden 3-year-olds and upwards; $1,000 for weight of ages. Allowances, 4 pounds for each $100 less. Third race—Selling, threéfourths mile; $200, of which $35 to second and $10 to third. For 3-year- olds and upwards; S1, CO weight for age: allow- ances, 2 pounds for each $100 to $800, 3 pounds each $100 to $500, 24 each $100 less, Fourth race—The East St. Louis Handicap; $500, of which $100 to seeond and 330 to third. For 3-year-olds and upwards. Entries close Thursday Jan. 21; weights to appear Friday, Jan. 22, an declaration to be made through entry box Friday, Jan, 22, by 4 0’clock. . Fifth race—Selling, five-eighths mile; $200, of which $35 to second and $15 to third; $7,000 weight for age; allowances, 3 pounds for each $100 to 8700, 4 pounds each $100 to $500 and 5 pounds for each $100 less. SOUYH SIDE PARK RESULTS. Before the herses went to the postin the third event at the South de track yester- day afternoon Judge Clarke called the jockeys up to his stand and stated that they would be closely watched, and if he saw any suspicious riding he would rule both jockey and horse off the traek permanently. This was a most unusual proceeding and was no doubt caused by rumors that had gained circuta- tion a short time previous to the race that matters had been fixed so that Maggie B. uis E. Ezell's fast mare, would have walk over. Those who were not on the in- side selected Cesar as the winner and backed him heavily. The race was a sweepstakes affair, each entry subscribing $50. Five horses went to the post, Maggie B., Nellie D., Bob Francis, Cesar and Bob Wade. Th got off well, but Maggie B. jumped through she bunch aud took a comfortable lead. This she the stretch, when licable manner ‘she slHpped, ng Jockey Eze, whose brother owns the mare, about 30 feet. Fortunately for him, the track was soft and, outside of a severe shaking up, he was not injured. Nel- lie D., Who was right behind the mare, at- tempted to clear her prostrate form in a jump, but was not equal to the task, and also went down, throwing Jockey Dem and bruising him quite severely. The race waswon by Bob Francis, a rank outsider, and the bookies made one of the b **killings’’ on record atthe track. The st race was postponed on account of darkness.

The third annual report of the Missourt Botanical Garden, Mr. R. J. Lackland, has been submitted tothe Board of Trustees. He states that the reconstruction of the garden residence of the late Henry Shaw has been completed and the house furnished for the director of the garden at n cost of $18,000 and that Mr. Shaw’s city residence has been taken down and rebullt in the garden at a cost of $33,478. The last named building was made fireproof and a room for the library and herbarium was added to the original building. The expenditure, together with the ordinary expense of keeping upthe garden used up all of last year’s income,and reduced thesurplus from the year before very ma- terially, in fact nearly $20,000, but Mr. Lack land informs the board that the outlay for the coming yeay will be very much less.“ The surplus on hand at the beginning of the year was $24,206.23. ‘Phe tofal receipts during 1891 amounted to $98,198.34, and that sum in- cludes $10,000 recetyed from the Public Ad- ministrator forthe removal ofthe city rest dence, that being the amount left by Mr. Shay, for tha particular purpose.

Harben’s neck on the gallows yesterday, he sald that he had made a statement for publication after his death and told the people in the jail-yard that they would find it in the dally papers. This statement, which contains fully one thousand words, is in substance as follows: We are all born to die, but not as I am doomed to go, for I am far away from home and kindred, sentenced to die for a crime committed by another man. But lam going home to God, to that bright and happy land of rest. There I will meet my dear motheranod many other Christian’ friends and we will take each others hands and sing etually a to the Lord and 2 heavenly angels. We are all trav- elers. Some are going home to-day and sme to- morrow. Many have traveled eastward to King Sol- omon’s Temple, and at the great day of judgment we will meet in the grand temple in the world to come, for I truly believe that we are a progressive being, and this world is only a begioninug place. You can- not murder my soul. Iam only speaking now to those who desire to have me executed, and to those that swore falsely at my trial. Several parties did false swearing, and a detective, Peterman, had written a confession and had been persuading metosign. Peterman told me ‘| that if 1 did not sign it that he would hang me to the cage ormob me. Ashe had already given me a dose of poison 1 did not know whom to trust, and I was alone in the jail atthe time and sick I never did write or make auy confession, but Peterman and others did write or forge one in order to collect that reward. I was offered ten goers in the penitentiary, but was not guilty and did not accept. John H. Hender- liter was offered his freedom if he would ewear that leommitted the murder. He told them he would not swear away an innocent man's life. The offer was made to him at my trial. Tat this time did not know who killed Smith until Henderliter wrote a Session in hisown hand-writing stating that he did shoot and kill Smith for tmeulting his wife. But he said that several perfuaded him to plead as aces- sory, so he did, and acce ten yeargin the peni- tentiary in preference to his freedom. I freely for } give all my enemies, May God bless all.

There e a monument erected to his memory in Benton Park. Hecker was commander of the fret revolutionary army of Germany and af- ter the collapse of the revolution he fied from the country and came to America. Hie returned to take part in the second up- few months later, but got there too late, Then came back to America and settled on a farm five or six miles southeast of Lebanon, Ill. Hecker commanded an llinois regiment in the war eeainst the Southern Oonfederacy. Carl Schurz was for fifteen years connected with Preetorius in the management of the Post, and St. Louls was his home that period, although he was in Wash- nasa United States Senator or Cabinet nister most of that time. His participa- n in the German revolution of '48-9 is well now to newspaper readers. He took part n the Gefense of Rastadt in Baden against e Government troops of Prussia, an@ after apitulation of the fortress he made his scape by crawling through a sewer with a mrade named Neustadter, and fied to Itzeriand. Here learning that (Prof. | his old university teacher, was a prisoner in Spandau, Prussia, he disguised and made his way to that city and eeded in getting himself employed at the prison where Kinkel was incarcerated. He managed to get his old friend out of the place two made their way together to the and escaped from the country to in speaking of the matter yester day Dr. Preetorius sald that dir. Schurz would certain'y have been executed had he been re- captured at any time after his escape from Rastadt, ashe was an officer in the Prussian Army when he joined the revolution.

The Wage-Workers of the United States— Their Constantly Improving Condition —More Wages and Less Hours—Sub- jeots Investigated. Written for the SUNDAY Post-Dispatcn. **The Department of Labor’’ is purely an Its results are intangible; educa force. they a pe measured by the standard of dollars and cents. In this respect its work differs from that of other departments of the national Government. It is our province to gather, collate and present to the public facts bearing upon certain economic questions. These facts have a far greater value than mere theories in determining the effect of a given policy or system upon our social con- dition. They are eloquently suggestive to those who study such topics and seek by leg- islation or otherwise to promote the welfare of wage-earners, who compose the great bulk of our people. The department was begun as an experi- ment. Its work has been so satisfactory to the people of all classes that its permanency isassured. It was authorized in 1884 by act of Congress, and in January, 1885, was organ- ized as a bureau ofthe Department of the In- terior. In 1888 it was disconnected therefrom and made an independent department, bear- the game relation to the Government as that — ee — a Sn — > ~ — Hon. Carroll D. Wright. formerly held by the Department of Agricult- ure before its head was promoted to a seat in the Cabinet. Thisrelationis the right and proper one and should be continued. Cabinet positions are, of necessity, more or less political. The department of labor is and should be absolutely divorced from politics. It isa pleasure to know that this is recog- nized by men of all parties. It has been my fortune to be atthe head of the department since its organization, anadlam glad to say that never, under either a Democratic ora Republican administration, have I been asked to do anything of a political nature, nor has there been a suggestion as to the character of our work that could have a bearing in that direction, This is as it should be, for it is clear to me that a departure from this rule would result in a serious impair- ment of its usefulness. Weare not noisy. We do our work quietly, and what is accomplished appears in the annual reports. Four volumes have been Iis- sued, and the üfth is now in the hands of the printers. Each year is devoted toa particu- lar line of inguiry. In this way much better results are attained than would be possible if it were attempted in each report to cover the entire field. In such a case the report would necessarily be meager, fragmentary and un- satisfactory. Our first volume, issued in 1886, covered the subject of industrial depressions at home and abroad. Weemployed special agents in all parts of our own country, as well as in the principal countries of Europe. A vast amount of information was collected bearing upon this subject in all its phases. The facts and figures Were so arranged as to render them“ intelligible to the reader. Convict labor was the topic of the second report. In this were included all nal institutions the inmates of which were em- loyed in productive industry. Care- 1 inguiries were made into the convict system of every State in the Union,, and also of foreign countries. It is needless to say that the volume contains much food for thought. The third volume relates to strikes and lockouts in the United States dur- ing the six years prior to 1687. Our inquiry was with especial reference to the causes and effects of these disturbances and the result- ant gains and losses. The volume contains also a codification of our national and State laws bearing upon this subject. The fourth report is one of peculiar interest and impor- tance to our people. It is upon the condition of working women intwenty-one of our prin- cipal cities—their occupations, wages, moral character and modes of living. It is devoted specifically to women who are employed in * — and manufactories. We expect to further pursue this subject by investigating the condition of those who ply the needle, domestic servants and other classes of wom- en who earn their bread. Volume V., which is now nearly ready for distribution, is upon railroad labor. We have been at great pains to gather the material for this reportand I think with good results. We have had the hearty co-operation of organizations of rall- way employes and of the companies. Asan illustration I may cite the fact that several ofthe latter sent us their pay rolls so that we might have the exact truth as to the wages paid all classes of men. This volume will be ready for distribution in January. All these volumes are of great and increas- ing value. The demand for them continues without abatement. We have been com- — to issue four editions of the first and hree of the second. The supply of the latter volumes is exhausted and new issues will be necessary. Congress appreciates the advan- - tage of having these books in the hands of the people and is generousin its appropria- tions for this purpose. Itis money well ex- Ged, forthe books go directly to those ho need and value them. They are not thrown away by scattering them broadcast, but any volume is sent without cost toa per- gon requesting it. Not less than two hun- dred thousand copies of these reports have been distributed, and the greater part of them have gone directly to the working peo- ple of the country. By a system of exchange we receive reports on similar ye: from foreign countries. Those issued by this department ure favor- rey! reviewed and commented upon abroad. At the Paris Exposition ours were awarded the fold medaland the commissioners were kind enough to award another to me. We have two other volumes in preparation which will be issued next yearand the year following. The first will embrace the which we have obtained rela- tive to iron and steel—the efficiency of labor 2 it ferent countries, the wa paid and the cost ofliving. The second lcover in the same way the manufacture of textile fabrics and miscellaneous articles, such as glass, ber, earthenware, etc. Practice enables us to improve in our methods, and we believe these volumes, the work upon which is already well under way, will prove valuable additions to this series. These inquiries were ordered ae Som * and we have been enga upon them for two years, besides os oy along our’other work. They will be more elaborate and exhaustive than have ever before been payee anywhere. ln my I. A the condition of the wage workers of the United States, viewed in all 1 * cost of living has materially advanced, A very important consideration is the fact that o wages have increased,there has been a neral decrease in the hours of labor. None will deny that in the United States the workingman—popularly so called—is at this time more of a social and political factor than ever before. Labor is more respectabie—if I use the expression without being mis- understood. Education develops in the ingmanall that goes to make good citi- zenship, and this commands confidence dad —— In our own country the conditions are radically different from those of any other. Here the great body of workers are not — Ota continuous line or race. In many, for instance, they are substantially all Germans and have been forcenturies. In England, France and other countries it 18 much the same. Comparative conclusions are therefore much more easily reached than here, where we have a heterogereous made u from all the civilized nations of the lode. The great wonder of students and publicists should be that this great body of pot so constituted, should be so in- telligent, so well paid, and generally 80 orderly. I believe the social and moral condition of all people, in all countries,is growing better. lam not a pessimist. I do not think the world is going backward. I am what might be called a conservative optimist, looking al- ways to the better side of things and seeing improvement and progress wherever they can be found. Speakin in a general the worzingman as always had a hard time of it. He has never received his legitimate share of the product of his labor. This has been the result of ex- isting conditions apd not of any fixed pur- pose on the part of hig employer to defraud him, or of presumed hostility between capl- tal and labor. 80 many factors enter into the price of labor that it is hard to say why a man is paid so much or so littie. The chief vestion in the fſabor problem of to- a is: How shall the worker ro- ceive his just and equitable share of production? That we are nearing the int of a fairer distribution I firmly believe, ust what the changes will be by which this most desirable condition may be brought about it is quite tmpossible now to define. The problem must solve itselt in its own way. Legislation cannot doit. There are unwrit- economic principles and laws must determine. There has long been a gradual narrowing of profits to capital, resulting from the in- crease of wages, competitive rivalry and other causes. Interest is lower than for- merly, and this is in the line of equalization, being tothe advantage of the borrower at the expense of the lender. There is at the same time a general — awe of many manufactured articles, which helps the con- sumer. All these elements enter into the question and foster the hope of a solution at no distant day. This is the plain logic of events. CARROLL D. WRIGHT. Industrial Notes. The cloth, hat and cap blockers have organized 4 national union. Denmark has followed Germany in pensioning aged workmen.

FINDING NO GOLD, LORD RANDOLPH HUNTS WILD BEASTS AND BIRDS. An Exciting Chase After an Eland—Pa- thetic Account of the Death of an Old Bull—Churohill Thinks a Curse Rests on Mashonaland Special Correspondence SUNDAY POSsT-DISPATCH. HARTLEY Hint, October 27.—While gal- loping after the ostrich my horse, putting his footina hole, came heavilytothe ground; I did not lose my seat but lost my rifle, which was thrown some yardsaway. This incident caused delay and allowed the ostrich to get too far trom us, so we abandoned the chase chagrined at our bad shooting and at not having secured the cock bird, which was in fine plumage. The appearance, however, of these great birds skimming along. over the plain with their somewhat grotesque action had been very pleasant and exciting. While we were dismounted watching the disappear- ing ostrich through a telescope three sable antelope approached us and stood leoking, about four hundred yards away. They seemed to be aware that we had no intention of molesting them, for they kept nearus for some time after we had mounted and were riding along, even when they had our wind, showing no signs of alarm. The day was very hot aud 1 have noticed thatat midday when the heat is great and when thereis little wind, the antelope are often singularly tama Now again being on an eminence we spied the plain, the sable antelope spping also close by. To our joythe elands were made out grazing along the edge of some bush about a mile off. The herd was slowly approached and was seen to bea large one, numbering nearly thirty with several young calves. At last I had come across these big creatures about which I had heard so much, which I had hoped forso many days and dreamedof so many nights. The herd iooked splendid; conspicuous among them stood the old bull, in appearance almost twice as big asthe cows and very majestic. Off they trotted into the bush as we came within five hundred yards, after them we cantered and were soon close on their heels. The eland is not speedy like the roan ante- lope, or hartebeest, or sable antelope he hardly ever goes out of atrot, but when alarmed this trot keeps a horse at a good hand canter toremain within shooting dis- tance. Iwent after the old bull, who soon left the herd and, accompanied by a single cow, took over the plain, Ina patch of bush this cow abandoned him and he trotted along all alone, a great fine beast. Three times I missed him; my fourth bullet hit him high in the haunch near the tall when he was about one hundred and fifty yards away as he was crossing aspruit. Then I saw he could go no longer and rode up slowly within twenty yards of him. Ithink this was the best mo- ment of hunting Icould ever pass. I shall never forget the sight of this noble and com- manding bull eland, looking at me most re- proachfully and from time to time moving away afew paces very slowly. There was nothing ungainly or convulsive about his at- titude or action asis often the case with other wounded buck when the hunter draws near. When dismounting I gave him a bullet behind the shoulder he moved away a few more paces and lay down quite grace- fully on the ground, sighing, then turning on his side, stretching out wide apart his fore and hind legs and again relaxing them, he expired ina position of complete repose. I suppose I will be laughed at, but I Was much impressed with his manner of death and full of admiration not unmixed with pity for this grand antelope. In weight he must have exceeded a thousand pounds, his horns were long, straight, thick atthe base witha spiraltwistinthem. Lee came up and we had hard work to cut branches and grass sufficient to cover and hide so large a beast. From twenty to thirty pounds of the meat, taken from the back and breast, we cut off at once and attached to our saddles, and when mounted we must have looked likea perambulating butcher’s shop. It was well that we carried off so much meat with us, as @ grass fire blazing in the vicinity impelled by the wind after our departure enveloped and consumed our fine eland bull, and on the morrow ‘‘the Baboon’’ found but a charred carcass, the horns being the only portion of the remains whith the flames had been unable to destroy or spoil, A long ride of ten or twelve miles | lay before us to Hartley Hill which we reached | about 4o0’clock in the afternoon, seeing on our way many buck of various. sorts which we disdained to chase. Hartley Hill is a low two-peakea kopie ris- | ing out of a plain covered with thick bush. At the foot of the kopie runs the Rimboe, a fresh stream flowing inarocky bed, which within a distance of less than half a mile This latter riveris here a It was quite refreshing joins the Umfuli. fine plece of water. | after so long a travel in a comparatively waterless land to find oneself gazing at the long, broad, deep flats which distinguish the Umfull as a real river from among sucha number of capricious and scantily supplied | watercourses. There is little of attraction in Hartley Hill itself. The Kopje has an unhealthy, stuffy appearance, and its sanl- tary character corresponds with its appear- The soil has been much tainted with numerous outspans. A veritable plague of common black files persecutesone from morning till evening; for some reason or other the fresh breezes which daily sweep over the veldt scarcely seem to penetrate to or in any way relieve the oppressive atmos.- phere of Hartley Hil, On the higher peak of the Kopje Messrs. Johnson, Heaney & Bor- row have, with their usual enterprise, erect- ed huts and storehouses. On the other and lower peak, Mr. Graham, the Mining Com- missioner, has his officesand abode. Many stories of adyentures with lions were current when I arrived at Hartley Hill. On the first night I was there a lion broke intothe kraal of the firm mentioned above, situated close to where I was outspanned, killed and car- ried o a donkey. This lion on two suc- cessive evenings returned to his prey, and shots were fired at him without effect. One of the prospectors in the service of Sir John Willoughby hearing a noise went out in the dusk of the early morn- ing, and seeing three large animals fired at them with his rifle and laid them all low. Sunrise revealed to him that he had siain three of his master’s donkeys. I found on getting to ~ ey ! Hilithat Mr. Alfred Beit, accompanied by Messrs.

We managed however, to kill the old bull of the herd. Iremained in this camp for two days after Mr. Perkins had returned to his mines and his reefs, but got little sport. The buck had been too much chased and had mostly aban- doned the locality. On one morning my hopes were excited by coming across a large outcrop of apparently good looking quartz. This, however, when panned, was found not to contain any gold. Two days after my return to Hartley Hill Surgeon Rayner and Hans Lee went out to try and get a buck or two, at the camp was in want of fresh meat. A nobler game awaited them. Two lions were seen stalking a herd of roan antelope. The former were at once pursned a one of the couple soon had three bullets in his hind quarters. Retreating into some high grass he afterwards charged and chased his hunt- ers, getting rather tooclose tothe doctor to 3 — pleasant. This was his last effort, forhe was badly wounded, and a bullet in his head terminated his wicked career. As fine a specimen of a lion as could be seen. He measured twelve feet from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tall, his skin was in perfect condition, his mane bushy and dark colored. The doctor returned to camp greatly pleased with his most exciting and fortunate ad- venture. The indefatigable Lee rode out again in the evening and killed a sable antelope and a hartebeest, so that we were not deprived of fresh meat on account of the lion. An expedition in this country is al- most entirely dependent for fresh meat on the buck which are killed. The natives will not part with their sheep and goats. While 1 was at Hartley Hul a trader came in from Bulnurgo with slaughtered oxen bought from Lobengula from the- Chartered com- pany. I procured from him two good sheep and a goat. The fat mutton was found by all to be a real 1 . Eight thousand miles nearly have to oe traversed before we see England again. The choice of route also perplexes; whether to retread the weary and monotonous path to Victoria and Tuli, or whether to attempt to reach the coast via the Pungive, braving „the fly,“ the fever and the discomfort of being deprived of all ‘wheeled vehicles, fur- nishes matter for frequent and anxious de- liberation. The gold district of Manica has still to be visited, but expectation is lowered and hope no longer glows. For now I arrive at the most unsatisfactory portion of my narrative and have to makea melancholy and mortifying confession. My early letters to you have reached me here like chickens come home to roost,in whichI find that 1 more than once wrote about the wealth and tertility of Mashonaland as ofa fact about which there could be neither doubt nor ques- tion. An extraordinary concurrence of opinion on the part of many travelers, con- firmed largely by historical record and by the traditions of generations, altogether mis- led me. But the truth has to told. Masho- naland (so far as isat present known, and much isknown) is neither an Arcadia nor an El Dorado. The discovery that the Mazoe River gold district wasa disappointment,that noexpectations of fortune could be derived from it, was borne with comparative equanimity, for all were assured, those who had been resident in the country for some time and those who had recently arrived,that the mineral wealth in the district of Hartley Hill would more than compensate for the deficiencies of Mazoe.. It seemed impossible that such a mass ofapparently substantiated report and of rumor could: turn out to be al- together valueless and misleading. I speed- ily found out, however, that this was the case. Mr. A. Beit with his party returned from their examination of the much talked about ‘*‘Eiffel’’ district much disappointed. These reefs are somewhat OS age A considerable outcrop, much 0 which when broken up showsa wonderful appear- ance of visible gold; this, however, when ex- tracted by crushing and pannigigis found to be of the finest and thinnest character. It seems to have been deposited in small flakes by water filtering through the cracks and crevices of the quartz;so much 60 that ore, which at first sight might lead even the ex- erienced to hope that it would yield three or our or even more ounces to the ton, actually results in the production of from half a dozen to a dozen pennyweights. As with ‘‘the Eiffel’’ reefs, so with very many others. Again where the gold is of a coarser and better quality firmly amalgamated with the quartz itself, then the reef is found either to have no appreciable 8 ore atany appreciable depth to yield hardly any appreciable gold. Hardly an excepti to these general char- acteristics has yet been discovered. A large amount of rumor has found its way to Hart- ley Hill as to the richness of the reefs on the Umswezi River. Mr. Mackay returned from an expedition there extending over some days, but reported that he had found nothing of promise,and the specimens that he brought back with htm when crushed gave but poor rospects. Another district some fifty miles rom here down the Umm River, where is situated the Mammoth River about which much talk had been made (as also the Lo Maqundi district) ,is I expect of no better character than those Ihave already written about. Many prospectors, some working for syndicates, some on their own account, many of Australian and of Amert- can experience, have now been occupied in these districts for some time. Not one, al- though they are all yon ggg A communica- tive, appears to beableto claim or to be desirous even of claiming that he has discov- ered anything of value or promise. Day by day I see them abandoning the country with the usual expression that it is not good enough for them.’’ I may, however, qualify the unfavorable opinion of the gold producing capacity of this ‘district expressed above by the mention of thé fact thatIhave in conjunction with Mr. Alfred Belt purchased half the property in one of the mines 8 to Messrs. Johnson, Heaney & Borrow. he purchase money is to be expended on the immediate development of the reef, on which up to now little or no work has been done. Ifthe reef is found on examination to go down some hun- dred feet or so, tobe three or four hundred feet wideatthat depth andto yield at that depth the same amount of gold which it yields atthe surface, then the mine will be one of some value, But looking to the gen- eral character of the other reefs in this dis- trict I have little expectation that this will be the case. If these general conclusions of mine are correct, and I fear they may be, the question presents itseif and is found to be almost un- answerable, what is to be done with this country? Agriculture on a large scale, cattle ranching or sheep farmin except for the feeding of a large mining population would be a wild and ruinous enterprise. The climate seems to be altogether adverse to colonization and settlement by small emi- grants.

II. From the Azores to Gibraltar the weather was charming. The ocean grew quiet and the skies beautiful. There were clouds, but they softened ang brightened, The new moon came out slender and exquistte, and far down in the western sky the star of the evening sparkled on the delicious blue like a diamond incomparable on velvet. The day was delightful, and at night the great interest if our little world was in the fact that if our iron-planet steadily described its appointed course over the shining, rounded face of the sea, we should be very early on Monday at Gibraltar. In the even- ing we saw the dim line of a coast we were told was Portugal, though it is my im- pression our first view of European land was of Spain. Then came lights im lofty towers, each with peculiarities known to all sailors of these seas. Among them later was one that bears the memorable name Trafal- gar, where Nelson settled the question of the supremacy of England over the oceans, and Napoleon had to find his consolation at Aus- terlitz. Dec. 7 the passengers were early risers. (It is, the afternoon of that day, and Iam seated on deck, without an overcoat, writing these lines in comfort. The western sky is red and pale goldin layers, and the silky glowing waters of the Mediterranean are murmuring around the ship, which is going with greater ease than the ordinary steam- boat on ariver. Ifeelthe vibration of the screw that drives us, like a pulsation in the deck. We have been looking long at the snowy mountains of Spain, and are now out of sight of land. We are about as far from Genoa as Cincinnatiis from New York. Our long plume of smoke bears away toward Africa. The yellow western light falls on the paper as I write, and I close at once the port- folio and the parenthesis. ) The ship was unqulet, but not from the swell of the sea, the night before Gibraltar, The mighty rock, one ofthe pillars of Hercules that stood forages at theendof the world, and became one of the gate posts of the new continent when the mystery beyond the At- lantic was revealed, has one of the names that strike the imagination. It ranks with Jerusalem, Constantinople and Rome inthe memories and fancies ofmen. Passengers were eager to see the reality so often pic- tured. Over twenty were going to leave the company for a tour in Spain. Long before day there was a hum all over the riveted hive, containing 1.200 human creatures. The Spanish lights flashed on the left. We had passed the Trafalgar light, There was a shadowy mass in the east—over It a sparkle of stars. Low by the sea, with somber background, there was seen the twinkle of many lights;on the right, emerg- ing from the shadows, a red glow; beyond it, miles away, awhite spot, like a keen star just beginning tofade inthe eastern light, What is that?“ was the question. The an- swer came, ‘‘Gibraltar!’’ To bo sure, how the ship has pierced the dim waters and the shadowy mists. To be sure it is Gibral- tar, a gloomy bulk, with the distinct resem- blance of the British lion as Landseer drew him fur Nelson’s monument in Trafalgar Square. Slowly the portentous rock was revealed, the distances lessened, the light increased. The rea signal marked the point projecting farthest into the famous strait. The spark tothe right was on the African shore, now plainly outlined. The hill that is the southerly Pillar of Hercules, looming on the horizon, commands attention and there are grander lumps of mountain swelling to the right. It was witha sense of something eventful in one’s experience to catch this glimpse, the first, and in all probability the last, of the huge continent, the most dark- some and mysterious on the globe—the conti- nent ofthe Nile and the Congo—of Egypt, Ethiopia and the oppressed race, for whom is foreshadowed a glorious vindication in an immense destiny. We had at last crossed the ocean, and were at the historic portal of the splendid sea in the middle of the earth—fhe sea whose shores are three continents—th® waters whose surf whitens the front of Egypt and Palestine, the isles and peninsulas of Greece, the-venerable marbles of Athens and Venice, the ruins of Carthage, the Bay of 1 and that re- ceive the yellow Tiber, rich with the recol- lections of gigantic avershadowing Rome. Here is the mid-ocean that borders with splendor Southern France and Spain, and Alps-bound Italy, and for a foothold upon which the prodigious Empire of Russia — for centuries passionately longed in vain. All the way over we had never heard one hideous blast from the foghorn, and the in- experienced travelers did not Know the happiness of the omission. The signal light was given. Then our steam whistle found its awful voice, and such a blast was blown as would have interrupted the thunders of the battle of the Nile. Another big ship had Just arrived and was swarming, smoking and steaming nearus. She had four masts—the foremast with yardarms, Her name was the Oceanic, and she was from Australia by way of the Suez Canal traits of Gibraltar for While we were tossing Western Atlantic, this ship had been plowing the In- dian Ocean and the Red Sea; andso we find the Bay of Gibraltar the half-way house bo- tween the Old and the New, and there is a feeling that the stately rock before us is the magnetic center of the affairs of our race, When we found our waiting-place the shi was surrounded by boats, the first of whic were manned by 2 traders, and soon there was a brisk trade inS ish funs and bandkKerchiefs, pictures, with the beau- ties of the land and the brawn of the bull fighters in their gaudy dresses, spangled and bedizened. Close at hand was the break- water, and behind it the big British ironclad, Thunderer, ready at any hour to justify her name. The British colors flew from our fore- mast, and the cross of St. George never had looked to me quite so brilliant and formida- ble. Among our passengers were Britons and Canadians, ladies and gentlemen, and they were radiant with pride. There is no spot over which the British standard files that soappeals to the glory and vanity of England, or that so advertises the plenitude of her power as this,‘ and the subjects of Her mse i the Queen and Empress have a right to exult that they are of a nation whose strong hand is felt in every land.

Hours passed ‘and we were off the Moorish coast, and knew that Malaga was at the head of the indenta- tion in the coast across which we were steaming, and that the land the Moors have mourned for four hundred years was behind the Sierra whose spurs were visible in the northeast. .

The pano- rama of the coast is almost startling, it is so picturesque. Every moment the eye finds some surprise, and each change is a pleas- ure. The next island that interests us is Minorca, with 200 square miles, near 50,000 people, a mountain—Toro—1,200 feet high, on 4 — is a castle visible in fine weather forty miles. (As I write we are still in full view of Ma- orca.

What was ‘‘he to Hewha or Hewha to him?’’ It is a conundrum that needs not sOlution, a puzzle the clue to which lg not worth finding; but the refrain Was on Majorca, Minorca.

There was a large and interested audience outsſde of Fanst’s last night, who extracted much amusement from the involuntary anticg of those who entered that resort. One ofthe electric wires had become grounded in such a manner that the cur- rent passed along the ironwork ofthe skylights of the basement, Being of small tension, the current was not strongly felt in any place, but there was enough to ive anyone entering the doora sharp shock — before the latch was touched. The effect on the nerves of those who unconsciously trod onthe tron carrying the current was out of all proportion to its intensity.

His stately face was altered the instant that his feet came in contact with the cur- rent.

Not only that, but roe contract gives the company the right to put up towers and run its wires over them or 1) conduits and put wires in them. That is 9 privilege of immense value, and the com- pany knows it too woll to give it up. Why, it ares that right most jealously.

Why, the company has no more in- tentton of itthanits President has of Jump- mw over one of his own arc lights. “Now, here's another int that has been overlooked,’’ Mr. Meuath nent on. It will net go or any other city officials to talk of ehanging that contract. It can’t be changed. roe charter intended to tie up all those ‘things tight as wax. There is no person or body authorized to make a single change in that agreement.“ SECRETS OF THE PLANT. the faures that follow will show that ex- Commissioner McMath is right and that there ie po truth at all in the claim of President VeDonald and Mr. Campbell that the com- pany is losing money. The estimate was pre- pared for Councilman Anderson by Alexander (.clrane, an expert electrician, who was in on the ground floor inallthe Municipal plant bullding and knows to a dime what the plant cost. Mr. Cochrane’s estimate is; hstimate of cost of plant for operating 2, 000 elec- tric arc lamps of 2,000 candle power each, nominal showing operating expensesand income ata rental of $74.95 per lamp per year: (ost of plant, complete $600,000 00 Operating expenses, with coal at 82 per ton, in- cluding all wages of em- ployes, and all incidental expenses, except insur- ance, 2.000 lamps at $6 per vear..... 132,000 00 Rental from 2.000 are amps at $74.95 per year $149,900 00 Protit from 2,000 lamps 17,900 00 ler centum of profiton a basis of cost of plant be- ing $600,000, 2.08 per cent. MAKING OVER 7 PER CENT. Ooncerbing this estimate, Expert Cochrane gays ‘*] wish also to state that the Municipal hiectric Co, are furnishing 1,200 arc lamps to individuals, or what is commonly called com- mercial lighting, at an annual rental of $130 perlamp per year, which is a clear profit of $76,800 per year. Add the profit on city light- ing of $17,900 and we have $4,709. ‘Granting that the city plant cost $700,000 and that the Municipal company patd $500,000 (which I doubt) for the other local franchises, we lave a total Investment of $1,200,000, on which a profit is made of $94,700, or 7.88 per centum; hota large margin, to be sure, but clearly the Municipal company is not losing money, ‘* All these estimates are based upon actual know ledge, except the cost of the Municipal lighting plant, which is approximate only. “It must be borne in mind also that the Municipal Electric Light Co. finally absorbed nll the electrie liwht companiesthen existing In the city at a cost of about $509,000.

O'Reilly orders the lamps put up at the rate of twenty-two a month, and the company puts up four a month on an average. Super- visor O'Reilly is under the direction of Pres!i- dent Geo. Burnet, who is strongly opposed to the policy suggested by ex-President Henry Flad, who wants the city to use its right of forfeiting the contract. So Sfiper- visor O’Rellly has been writing very polite letters to the company and getting back most cavalier replies. Here is asample of this sort of thing: MR. CAMPBELL S INDIFFERENCE. Some months ago Supervisor O'Reilly ordered some lights in the northwestern part of the city and they were not put * After long waiting the Ashland Place Improve ment Association, a company of property owners who Knew their rights, wrote tothe Supervisor and he in turn wrote to Mr. Campbell, then the President of the com- pany, asking him why the lights had not gone up. President Campbell replied with this able note: „Mr. Ayer, our general manager, ts now in the Kast, and will return during the early part of next week, when I will have him give his prompt atten- tion to the watter contained in your letter, and will urge that the lamps suggested in your communica- tion be among the first that are erected in the north- ern part of the city. Observe the suggested. The letter sounds as if President Campbell had been asked for a favor by Supervisor 0’ Reilly. Over a year ago a light was ordered by the Supervisor. it was an important one, and he repeatedly reminded the company that it bad been ordered, but it ald not go up. Finally, Dec. 29, Supervisor O’ Rel]ly wrote to the company as follows: Street light No. 2.400, on Bayard the St. Louts and Suburban Ry., is badly needed. Was ordered Jan. 30.1891, and has not been lighted. Please hasten its erection. Your failure to light this and other lights within thirty days after being ordered constitutes a violation of the contract for the city lighting.’’ It has been two weeks since that letter was written. Noanswer has been sent to the Supervisor, nor has the light been put up. NEGLECTING LIGHTS NOW UP. The reason 5 the company doesn’t put up these new lights is that the profit on them is so much smaller than on commercial bus- siness that it pays to put all its men at work on its private lines. It econimizes, at the expense of the city in another way,too. It employs an utterly inadequate force of men to take care of the lights now swung, and the consequence is that many of them are out every night. In December Supervisor O’Rielly got these reports of lamps out for the entire month: Municipal 1,989, Missouri 119, and Laclede 209. Of the lamps of the Municipal that were reportéd out, 37 per cent were out all night. This shows that they went out ore neglect, and not because of a broken circuit, whichis an unavoidable electric accident. For each lamp out all night, Supervisor O'Reilly deducts 22% cents, but the company understands that it can better afford to let the money be deducted than to pay for atten- tion to the lamps. . Now, said Supervisor O’Reilly, after showing these figures, it will be under- stood why I want a Change in the contract. We have no way of compelling the compan to put up these lamps as they are ordered, except by forfeiting the contract on the ground of its violation. As that seems not to be the policy of the city, we ought to have some other way of forcing it to give thecity lamps when they are needed. The way to do it is to put in the contract a fine for each lamp that is not put up in thirty days after it is ordered. CAMPBELL AND THE COMPANY, When K. A. McDonald of the Fort Wayne Electric Co. was made President of the Mu- nicipal Lighting Go. his predecessor, James Campbell, announced to the newspapers that he was out of the company’s management entirely, and President McDonald made his dreadful threat of laying down the city con- tract ifthe price was not raised, and went back to Fort Wayne, where he became in- accessible to the interviever. Mr. Campbell lay in ambush here and watched the discussion of the President’s announcement. He thought he saw symp-~ toms of sympathy with the company in the talk of the city commissioners, and, still desiring to keep in the background. went to Councilman Albert Arnstein and got him to introduce the increase bill. The councilman respected Mr. Campbell's wishes by refusing to say who had given him the bill, but he was willing to admit that he thought it would not pass, an was anxious for it to be understood that he had placed it before the Council only ‘‘by re. quest.’’ All the Commissioners of the Board If Public _ Improvements assumed a passive attitude toward the Dill, and it went in its progress through the Council. POINTED OUT THE WRONG. avenue and The Post-DISPATCH then pointed out to 5 t the ulli was illegal that the Council tha ns 5 sae — financial conditign an ts untrue. President Burnet tions were Fiad, — 9 MecMath and Commissioner Holman joined in the fight. Councilman Wm.

He 3 gge td .* mask the representations ot the company phn ex- President looked into the law and declared t the en Mr. . e and went of the company’s interests, to Councilman Anderson and asked him not to ene See his plan. . The bill is illegal, and we oughtn’t to fool with t., said the Oouncilman. It the other members of the Council agree with me it will be filed at the next meeting.’’ CAMPBELL SEES ANDERSON. Mr. Campbell then adroitly suggested that discussion of the bill would would bring out a good many things about electric light matter that people were interested in, ‘‘I don’t ex t the bill to pass, he urged, artfully, but I want it to get in before the committee so we can make our statements.’’ e Councilman was unmoved, The Dill was filed. There is reason to Delleve that it would have had some votes dy the time it got to the committee, if Mr. CampbDell’s argu- ments to save it had prevailed. ‘*The Posr- DISPATCH struck the bili bard just at the right time, said er Commissioner Meuath. If the “ent had not been made on it just at that time there is no telling what might have happened.’’ If the former electric commissioner had known when he spoke exactly what Mr. Campbell had been doing to get his votes he would have been still better pleased by the resuit of the attack on the bill. AN OFFER TO ARNSTEIN. After Mr. Campbell had found out that his pares: work would be neededto get his lll through he offered Councilman Arnstein the place of special attorney for the com- pany, with a salary which is put by some at $5,000. The Councilman took time to consider the proposition and decided to refuse it. The circpmstantial evidence of the case tends to show that the offer was made before the Councilman intro. duced the bill, but the statements of those who heard of the negotiation are that it wag after that. MR. CAMPBELL DISCONCERTED. Mr. Campbell, through all the discussion of the bill, has been always willing to receive newspaper men with much politeness. His only regret has been that he didn’t know enough about the affairs of the company to tell them more. ou must ask Mr. McDonald,’’ he has said, whenever a leading question about the com- ny’s work would be put. He came forward Pleasantly to meet a POST-DISPATCH re- porter. **What was your object in offering Council man Arnstein a salary to become your attor- ney?’’ he was asked. AN ADMISSION IN ANGER. Mr. Campbell’s eyes became fixed, and he did not reply immediately. He seemed to be thinking pretty fast, however. I never heard of sucha thing, he said at last, I don’t know anything about it, what business is it of yours?’’ he added, then cropping his suavity, as anger seemed to overcome bim. An offer of that kind to a Councilman from your company at this time means some- thing, don’t it?’’ People who know the broker as the good- humored Jim Campbell would hardly have recognized him now. His manner had lost every particle ol the diplomacy that usually marks it, and his imperial was quivering with rage. tell youl don’t know a thing about it,“ saidhe. ‘‘Why don't yqu go and ask Arn- stein. It’s his business and the com- ny’s, ain't it, if he’s been asked that. ‘hen the broker indulged in an oath that sounded very big in that small office. ‘‘The troubie with you fellows all the time is that you don’t know where to draw the line be- tween your business and somebody else’s Dusiness,’’ said he. THE COUNCILMAN EXPLAINS. Councilman Arnstein was seen and told that it would be much to his advantage to make a full statement of the whole transaction between him and Mr. Campbell. The Oouncilman was at first on his guard, but being told that the story was becoming known considered a mo- ment and then saying, Well, I’msorry it’s out, made an appointment for a later hour. At that time be met the reporter again. M nat did they do with that bill?’’ he asked. J have just come back from Boston. It was flled. ö ‘*Well, I'm glad they made that disposition of n, said the Councilman, ‘‘Now tell me who gave you this information about me?’’ He was told that the report had come from a statement ot hisown. ‘*Well,’’ said he, I'm sorry the thing has become known, be- cause I don’t belleve that Jim Campbell meant anything wrong in the matter, and 1 would be sorry to hurt him. Ido business with him, buying stocks sometimes, and our relations have been friendly, of course. Some time ago e came to me to have his bill introduced, and I did it because it was the fair thing to introduce it. Then he came to me and said that the company wanted to make a change in its attorneys. He told me reasons for wanting to make change, dut they are not to the point. then said thatthe company had decided to offer the place of attorney to myself and Charles Nagel. He said the fees would be between §2, and $3,000 a year. I told him that in view of pending legislation I thought it would not be the proper thing for me to acceptthe proposition, and he re- plied thatif I felt that way he would not force his offer. CONCEALING THE HOOK. Of course he couldn’texpect me to appear in any legislation as the attorney, but he wanted my services only in outside matters not at all connected with my public office. I took some time to think over the matter and saw some of my friends about it. Some of them advised me to take the offer. They said they thought I was man enough torise abovethe considerations of = connection with this company in any leg- islative matters, and 1 thought so too. The law is my means of livelihood, and I felt certain that if 1 took the office I would not let it operate towards influencing me in the Council. But other friends of mine told me that it would hurt me, and my motives would be misunderstood and so I declined it. I felt very Kindly to- ward Mr. — 1 pos I don’t suppose he meant by that bill to rob anybody, exactly, and I didn’t want to lose his friendship. MR. NAGEL’S STATEMENT. Mr. Nagel is the lawyer and ethical culture lecturer who ran for the Council on the Inde- pendent ticket when Councilman Arnstein was elected. He said to-day that he had been managing the case of the company for a long time, and the others had been turned over to him recently. Mr. Arnstein was not connected with the company’s litigation. He hought it was not proper for him to discuss he offer made to Mr. Arnsteinatall. For his own past he knew nothing of the company’s business or legislative plans. He had noth- ingatall todowith itand did not think he would have. TO AFRICA IN SIXTEEN HOURS. The Flight of Swallows Calculated by a Frenchman. A Frenchman by name of Desbouvrie, says Le Petit Journal, launched on the air on the 7th of September, at Paris, two trained carrier swallows. The birds ascended straight into the air, then flew around in a circle once or twice and departed in the direction of Roubaix, where they arrived soon afterwards. They traversed the dis- tance of 125 miles in an hour and a quarter. Another Frenchman whose home is at Creil made the observation that a swallow which he had trained traversed a distance of eighty miles in an hour. Based upon this experi- he calculated accurately 0 a time it takes the 8 ws that come to us in the summer and leave as in the fall to pass the ocean in — of their winter quarters. The distance m Paris to Tripolis is in round figures 1,260 miles, and taking the e rapidity of the flight of the birds to be 80 miles per hour, the little tourist should arrive at its destination in about sixteen hours. While this is, of course, only an approximate cal- cuiation it demonstrates the fact, neverthe- less, that migrating birds can escape over a @irect air-line route from the influences of the changing climate, outdistanci ng ther sb in rapidity our lightning express > far. For the Destitute. The following contributions to be applied to the relief of cases of destitution reported by the police were received by the Post- Drs. - PATCH yesterday: From ‘‘A Sympathizer,’’ for Vincent Stolyez of 4377 Kennerly avenue, %, and for Anthony Edwards and wife of 2217 Ken- nerly avenue, $5.

TO THE POVERTY-STRICKEN QUARTER OF ST. LOUIS, © Need of Assistance From the Charitably Inclined—Work Done by the Post- Dispatch’’in Relieving the Sufferings of the Unfortunates—Method of Distrib- uting Contributions—The City’s Poor. Poverty is as old as the world. “The poor ye have always with you, said Jesus. Poverty and misery have gone hand-in-hand with progress, culture and refinement, and the paradox is perpetually presented of the world growing richer and poorer atthe same time. Students of sociology tell us that the rich are growing richer and the poor poorer. Per- haps this is so. Anyway, right here in St. Louis there is a woful amount of suffering and destitution this winter. The ravages of la grippe have sapped the little savings of hundreds of families, laia tne bread-winners low and famished the de- pendants. The Post-DISPaTcH, which al- ways responds to the appeal of the deserving destitute, has been called upon more fre- quently than of yore, this winter, to make public appeals for help for starving families. A HARD WINTER. Hardly aday passes that some new case does not come to light in these columns. Still, great as is the help thus offered, it is but adropin the bucket as compared to the misery all around thecity. As before stated, this winter is a peculiarly hard one, for la grippe has been at work now three years, and there exists hardly a family in the city that has escaped. Savings banks have felt the influence in the withdrawing of deposits. Landlords feel the effect in tardy and lapsed rentals. And so it goes, the poor growing poorer. ' None know better thanthe police the ex- tent ofthe destitution of the present time. and many is the dollar that blue coats dis- pense in unostentatious charity. The police inthe Third District comein contact with more poverty than their brethren in other districts, for the mews and alleys of Morgan, Bidale and Collins streets are within their balliwick. POVERTY PLENTIFUL. There is a power of suffering among the r people this winter, remarked the luff sergeant, as he stood warming his back in the Third District Station last night; a power of suffering, sir. I have seen dying mothers and starving children freezin within a hundred yards of the station. know that these fellows who make a study of such things have got it down on papérthat no one hasarightto be poor, that it is the result of improvidence and bad manage- ment. Maybeitis, sir; but that is no reason why we should let them starve. What good does it do to teil a starving, shiverin woman that she ought not to be starving an shivering, that her worthless sot of a hus- band ought to support ner in comfort? It 18 not a lecture in economics that she wants, but bread and warmth. Faugh! If these too good theorists were a mth on the force they would learn that thifes are not run as they, ought to de in this world, but as they are. The Sergeant mopped his ruddy face with his handkerchief, for the energy of his harangue had started great beads of perspl- ration. SQUALOR NOT ALWAYS POVERTY. Do you want to see some poverty?’’ he continued. ‘*Yes? Then button up your coat and come along with me. You must not mind foul smells or disgusting sights; you have got to get used to them if you goslumming. Nowl want to tell you one thing, young fellow,’’ said the Ser- geant. Those fine people who do nothing but theorize have got an idea that the poorest people are those who look the most abject. That is where they make a mistake. I have found more than one person dead, who the doctors said had been starved, and in almost every instance they were bet- ter appearimg than their immediate neigh- bors. As a rule it is the proud people who starve. They prefer death to begging, and die before they are reduced to rags. When the charitable women go out to hunt for poverty they usually mistake squalor for destitution. Now | tell you that this is one of the eatest mistakes. There are certain squalid classes among whom you rarely find a family in destitution. gut a great many people who are really in comfortable circumstances impose upon the charitable, and are not above accepting that charity which rightfully belongs to others. IN POVERTY’S HOME. By this time the Sergeant had arrived at **Dago alley, an ill-smelling hole running off Morgan street, between Seventh and Eighth. In spite of the frosty atmosphere andthe frozen ground the alley was foul- smelling. Theelectric lights that hang at either entrance of the inlet hardly served to illuminate the interior. Low houses line the way, but the place is well enough known and no description of its unsavory surroundings is necessary. Destitution was what the PoOsT- DISPATCH man andthe Sergeant were looking for. An old man who was found in the alley said that all the residents were poor, but that there were no cases of des- titution. „That's how it is,’’ explained the officer. They are all r, Dut none are indigent. Now, come once with me to Castle Thunder. There you will see destitution. ’’ AT CASTLE THUNDER. Castie Thunder is a notorious den. Itis inhabited by a mixture of various races, in- cluding negroes. Castle Thunder stands on Eighth street, north of Morgan, and runs through to the alley. It is a ramshackle ar- fair, built of brick, and is unsanitary to the last degree. Although a policeman could stand on top of the Third District Sta- tion and almost throw his club upon the roof of Castie Thunder, it is one of the worst nests ofcrime in thecity, No end of brawls and drunken fights occur there and the annals of crime have been enriched to an unprece- dented extent by the inhabitants of the rook- ery. In this fearful place, dark as a dun- geon, til-smelling as a sewer, filthy fami- lies are packed. Drunken men, biear-eyed women, hollow-eyed children live in horrible destitution there. Rum is the cause of all this misery and it is help can be extended, inhabited two a negress dyin consumption, while across the foot of the ragged mattress, which lay on the floor, was stretched her drunken husband. The only furniture in the room Was a barrel with a board across the top, a chair with the back gone anda couple of soap boxes filled with what appeared to be rags. Fire there was none,.and the on light afforded came through a dirty window. Thisscene was re- peat in several apartments. Afi around Morgan and Eighth streets desti- tution was encountered, for the most rt confined to those whose crimes and les had brought their troubles upon them. COLLINS AND O’FALLON STREETS. Now let us come down to Third, Collins and O’Falion streets, Said the sergeant, nd I will show you the largest tenement- house in the world. I will show you where from seven hun to a thousand human in one community, under one roof, and manage to exist without infringing upon the rights of others to an unbearable extent. atime it looked as though that rth e old ted, heavy Manufacturin dis- 0 u & s rch oF rogress has been w . 80 that flare are ‘to ‘ue’ found 0 formerly dwellings, that ‘by their owners. They found, but little real destitution in the proper sense encountered. ; THE ASHLEY BUILDING. On the corner of Third and Bates streets stands the most remarkable tenement house inthe world. It is known as the Ashley building and was built by old Dr. Whittier in 1868. It occupies the site of _ * spoke as ina purposes, but Ss is an error, its projector — | it for the identical purpose to which itis now devoted. It is a four-story brick, flat roof structure, covering the entire block. The ground floor stores are occupied by produce men and batchers, it being in the commission district. The three upper floors are divided into hundreds of rooms. In the center of the Third street side of the building is the entrance and over the door isa dingy sign notifying passers that. “N. Powers, Agent,’’ rents apartments and that the office is in room 1, Mr. Powers was found in his office, a room that would have been the glory of Dickens. The agent sat before an old-fashioned 3 desk, with a small space railed off from the ae the small room. Jes, we have a good many very poor peo- ple here,’’ said 1 4 18 1 think we have anything like the amount of destitution here that they havein the small tenements. You e our rents are cheap, $2.50 for single and $4 month for. a suite of two rooms. At present we have 134 individual renters, and I think there are not over 600 people in the house. Some of the people take rd - ers. What, in two rooms?“ Wuy, yes, in one. We don’t rent an apartment to more than a single family, but if that family takes one or two boarders. we can’t interfere. **Destitution? Yes there are a few cases, admitted the agent. Some with me and I will take you to see a sad case.’’ SEVERAL DESTITUTES. In room 18, poor, cold and uncared for, lay Mrs. Sara Moska, a Hungarian, sick, dis- couraged and hungry: A sickly chiid saton the footofthe bed, But two weeks ago they had taken this woman’s husband, a young man, away to the hospital, an incurable con- sumptive, and his death is momentarily ex- pected. Poor Mrs. Moska earned 7% cents a day picking ragsinthe rag factory, but her sickness has thrown her entirely out of re- sources and approaching confinement finds her destitute and starving. In room lives Mrs. Vovachsaska, a Polish woman, whose husband deserted hera year ago, leaving her with a dying baby. rs. Vovachsaska has also supported herself by picking rags, sending her oldest child to school, while two others remained home. Now she can do nothing—a sad case. In corner rooms, 36 and 37, was founda case that appeals to the charitable. For years a French woman of about 50 has lived there. Beyond the fact that she calls herself Martfng nothing is known of her. The agent does not Know whether she is maid, wife or widow. She is too proud to appeal for help and she is perishing of want. She has lived for years on a small sum, economizing in every way. No it is all gone. She has not worked. She now cannot work. It is thought by some that. she has enjoyed a small annuity and that it has been cut off; by others that she has spent the last money of her sav- ings. Now she has nothing and starvation is all she has to look forward to. Don't think my people the objects of compassion,’’ said the agent, for they are not. With the ex- ceptions named and possibly a few more, the tenants are at least-comfortable. Some save and last month a man moved out of this house and paid $5,000 fora home. Last year eleven families moved out into homes of their Own. factory that was burned down. A GOOD WORK. The Provident Association and the St. Vin- cent de Paul Society, the only two systematic charities in St. Louls, have beea taxed more than informer years to answer the appeals that come to them from every quarter of the city this winter. Despite thelr nobie work and much individual charity new. cases of destitution come up faster than they can be cared for. To the Huttig Sash & Door 50. 8 Employes’ Mutual Ald Soclety belongs the creditof a commend- able move to assist the poor of the city. Their plan and the rich suggestion they offer is that the employes of every factory in St. Louis contribute to the wants of every case of destitution that comes within their neich- borhood, Within the shadow of some of the big industrial plants there are cases of abso- lute want which the employes in factories close at hand would giadly assist if they had knowledge of them. In order to better under- stand the scope of the new movement a Post-DIsPATCH reporter called on C. : Huttig, President of the Huttig Sash & Door Co., yesterday afternoon, but he was rather reluctant to say anything. MR. HUTTIG’S STATEMENT. ‘*The Mutual Ald Society is composed of all of our St. Louis employes,’’ hesaia. It 1s officered and managed by its own board of directors, but I would prefer to have you see Mr. McConnell, our factory superintendent, about this matter. He is treasurer of the society, and knows all about its workings. I am sometimes called upon for suggestions, and at such times give them all the time and attention that they call for, and give them such advice as I think proper. Imayas well say, how- ever, that 1 understand the excellent work that my employes are pursuing, and think that if systematized as suggested by them, that it will bear worthy fruit, It is certainly worthy of imitation.’’ „„es, said Robt. B. McConnell, the super- intendent of the company’s factory at Tenth and Mullanphy streets, ‘‘we have in our humble way began todo what our associa- tion’s finances will permit for the poor, and we fell that if our system is but indorsed by other factory people of St. Louis, that it wil relleve much distress. Our society is incorporated under the State laws and includes provision in its govern- mental rules for assistance to others than its members. These societies are growing in number in the large work-shopsof the city, and if they will unite every winter in behalf of the starving poor, they can accomplish great good. If they will not do that, let them execute their 9 in an humble way n their own neighborhood. But the purpose of our mem- bers is to strive for the establishment of a local league, to include all of the industrial establishments in the * in a neral sys- tem of aiding the poor. r. Huttig has sug- gested to our society that the league when formed take up 5, 10.0r 15 cent collections oc- casionally during the tzummer in the facto- ries, tor use next winter in the work.

The contribution ts for- warded to Secretary Fred Lucas of the Police Department, who receives it on behalf of the department, which bears the same relation towards the poor in such matters here as the Department of Public Charities does toward New York City. Mr. Lucas then distributes the donations according tothe police districts in which the destitutes reside and finally, after the money has passed through the hands of the captain or acting captain of the district the sergeant of the precinct and the patrolman on the beat, it reaches the party or parties for whom it was intended. The patrolman hands it over personally. No record is kept of the donations the police receive, for what come through the newspa- pers are — 4 a fraction of the total amount, which must amount to considera- ble. The Posr-Disrarcnh has taken the lead in giving publicity in its columns tothe — lice reports relating to the destitution exist- ing 2 yarn the city, and a careful 2 of the back numbers gives ample evidence o this fact. THE WORK COMMENCED. On Nov. 22 a notice appeared to the effect that Mrs. Ellen Kehoe and her family of five children, ranging in age from (to 14 years, who were reported to be in destitute circum- stances at their home on Ashley street, had received the attention of the charitably in- clined and that $9.50 had been forwarded to them through this paper.

STRANGE STORY OF A WOMAN MARRIED FIRST TO A MAN, THEN A WOMANS, The Death of Her Wife Brings to Light Again the Remarkable Career of One Who Was Both Wife and Husband—-A Woman's Wife. Special Correspondence SUNDAY Post-DISPATCH. NEw YorK, Jan. 16. —- Mrs. Annie Hindle was buried the other day and around her coffin was a group of people who have been more or less famous on the stage. Near it was Mrs. Annie Hindle the widower. No, it is not a mistake. The wife of a woman? Yes, Annie Hindle was Annie Ryan Hindle’s hus- band and the woman husband mourned be- side the coffin,of her wife. The story isa strange one but it is true. When Annie Hindle was s years old the woman who had adopted her, and who gave this protege herown name, put her onthe stage in the pottery district of Hertfordshire in England. The little girl sang well even sa early. Atthe outset she sang tender songs, with love as their theme, but, as she grew up and traveled to London, she enlarged her **repertory.’* One day, halt in jest, she put onaman’s costume and sang a rollicking ditty about wine, women and the races. A shrewd manager whe listened to her sawa new fleld open to her. In a week Annie Hindle was a male impersonator,’’ and al 1 Wij N wT Wy, London was taking about thejwonderful and minute accuracy of hermimicry. An Ameri- can manager bargained with her,and about 1867 she came to New Yerk totriumph here ag completely as she had triumphed in London, Annie Hindle was the first out-and-out male impersonator’’ New York’s stage had ever seen. Ella Wesner had not yet ceased to dance obscurely with ber’ stster; Blanche Selwyn was unheard of; MaggieWes- ton was yet to come alonginthe crowded ranks of Hindle’s imitators. But in ’67 all the glory was Hindle’s, all the novelty was hers, and she got all the money, too. Traveling through America about this time was Charles Vivian, the English comique,. He was a handsome fellow, a ready wit, a free spender, a.great entertainer, and an admira- ble performer ofthe Lingard type. He wag famous before he came here, andon Broad- way—for our Vanity Fair then had a variety house on every third block—he never worked for less than $150a week. His path crossed Hindle’s one night. Charley Vivian speedily fell in love with Annie Hindle. Nobody was surprised. The couple seemed devoted andthey made the courtship brief. On Sept. 16, 1868, Charles Vivian and Annie Hindle were married by a minister in 1 oe They started at once for the Pacific coast, as happy. appar- ently, as a pair af young doves. et they did not travel far together. At Denver a li later 41 and his wife separated. They never metagain. He told his friends that their honeymoon had lasted one night. Hindle has since said that he did not tell the truth. He lived with me, she declared, rather bitterly, several months—long enough to biack both eyes and otherwise mark me; yet I wasa and true wife to him.’’ Vivian did not get a divorce. He had no cause. Hindle did not seek one. She was free enough. So they traveled apart, both in their own way, busy enough, yet unhappy; ivian died in ö 9 Hindle’s strangest romance came later. In all her travels she had carried a dresser. Ella Wesner was once high factotum to this dash- ing male impersonator, and balf a dozen women since — i Known on the stage had at various times helped to make up““ Hindle and to dress her. In the summer of 1886 Annie Hindle’s dresser and faithful com - panion was a pretty little brunette of 2%—a quiet, demure girl, who made friends wherever she went. She accompanied Hin- ale to and from the theater, and she was a very valuable heip tothe singer.

A Strong Personality—A Successful Farm- er and Lawyer—An Earnest Advocate of Tariff Reform and Sturdily Opposed to Prohibition. Special Correspondence SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. WATERLOO, Jan. 14.—Sixty four years ago, in the latter part of John Quincy Adams’ presi- Gency, Horace Boles, now Governor of Iowa, was born in a snow-covered cabin in a little country village near Buffalo, N. 1. His father had been a common soldier in the war of 1812 and at the time of the boy’s birth was extractinga meager living from a Sterile farm. There never was a boy more com- pletely destitute of prospects than this one, ö ‘Dut ne came of sturdy stock and his training strengthened the sturdiness which was a family characteristic, His father made him work on the farm during the summer and gave him the best of the very poor educa- tional advantages to neighborhood at that time. In spite, how- ever, ot the absence of good schools, Horace Boles got a fair elementary education in books, which fitted himafterward to study the law. At the same time he never forgot to love farming and outdoor occupation and is to-day one of the largest and most success - ful farmers in his adopted State. Although 64 years of age he possesses the vigor of his prime. He is silver-haired, and the crows of time have left many tracks about his clear gray eyes, which look out at you frankly and youthfully, His forehead is high and betokens intellectual strength. Hits nose is straight and large. His mouth and chin are strongand indicate great firmness and resolution. Heisa good talker and a good listener, and tells and hears a good story with equal relish, Twenty-five years ago Gov. Boles moved to Iowa and made his home in Waterloo. He had been admitted to the bar in 1852 and im- mediately took a prominent place among the lawyers of his new home. He had already , had some political experience, having served one term in the New York Legislature. He was 40 years old when he arrived in Iowa. MAKES FARMING PAY. He bought some land near the town and opened a law office in the city. He made money at the law, knew how to charge good fees and get them, and he invested his sur- plus in lowa farms. He has now thousands ot acres of land in lowa, and he is one ofthe practical farmers ofthe country. He makes his farms bring him in an income, and he Gov. Botes. owns one in Grundy County, Io., about thirty miles from where he lives, which contains 2,640acres, and every acre ofitisina high state of cultivation. He has aherdof 600 head of cattle upon it, and half of the farm is devoted to stuck raising. He knows every detail in the management of it and he spends a portion of every year upon it, often going out into the fields and taking a place with Dis mon in the work. He spends his vaca- tions upon it now, and he used to spend one or two days ofeach week in looking over it. He has another big farm in Palo Alto County which containsa thousand acres of grazing land, and upon this hehe keeps a lot of fine stock.

He is a man ofa very even temperament. NOT A COLD-HEARTED MAN. He is a very warm-hearted man, notwith- standing reports of his coldness spread by his political foes. A story illustrating his sym- pathetic nature is often repeated. A Pennsylvania boy had run away from home, and had come with another youn man tothe West. His father was dead, an he left his widowed mother’s house at the in- stance of this associate, who turned out to be a bad character. The boys came to Iowa and the bad one committed a crime, for which he was arrested, and as the young runaway was with him at the time, he was also charged with the crime andtried. The youn — was very penitent and he made a confession to Mr. Boles, who was his law- yer. Mr. Boles arose in the court-room and tried to read it. He had gone over but a few ofthe story when his feelings overcame im and he had to take his seat.

In 1849 he was elected County Judge and in 1851 to the State Senate. He attended the sesstons of that body in 187 18538 and 1884, and by this time had acquire: such prominence in his party as to be selected in 1853 to place his old friend, Judge Douglass, in nomination forthe United States Senate. In 1855 he united with a few other anti- Slavery Democrats in refusing to vote for Gen. Shields for the United States Senate, the result of which wasthe defeat of Abraham Lincoln, whowas the Whig candidate, an- other selection of Judge Trumbull as an anti- Slavery Democrat for that position, In 1856 he was Chairman of the first Republican State Convention and a dele- gate to the National Conven- tion in Philadelphia, which nominated Fre- mont and Dayton, and he took an exceed- ingly active part in the canvass of that year. In 1858 he supported Lincoln as a candidate for the United States Senate against Judge Douglass in the memorable canvass made by those antagonistic men before the people that year.. In 1859 he was a candidate for Congress in a district in which he was per- sonally very popular, and with some show of success, but In the midst of his campaign the John rown affair at Harper’s Ferry oc- curred, which produced such a feeling Against the anti-slavery men as to defeat him by an immense majority. In 1860 he was elected elector-at-large on the Republican ticket. In 1861 he was a Gele- gate to tho Peace Congress In Washington and favored measures of com romise adopted by the conference. When he second call for troops was made he came forward and enlisted as a soldier, regardless of great home interests, aud on May 9, 1801, was — elected Colonel of the Fourteenth IIlinols Regiment of Volunteers. After moving with his command from Jack- sonville, this State, tosundry points in Mis- souri he accompanſed Gen, Fremont in his expedition to Springfleld, Mo., and was then assigned command of a brigade by Gen. Hunter, which formed a part of Gen, Pope's expedition to Milford. Inthe same year he was commissioned Brigadier-General. Le commanded a division and was with Gen. Pope at the capture of New Madrid and Island No. 10 and the bombardment of Fort Pillow. He was afterwards assigned to the command of the First Brigade, First Division of the Army of the Mississipp!, composed of the Twenty coe, Twenty- seventh and Fifty-first Illinois Volunteers and Hickock’s battery. Through Illness he was ordered home by Gen. Payne in 1862 and after three months he took partin the effort to raise more troops, and under the authority of the Governor of IIlinois organized the One Hundred and Twenty-second Llinols Reg! mentof Carlinville. In the scope of this sketch room cannot be made for his army career, receiving as he did personal recognl- tion for gallantry and skill, He was com- missioned Major-General and was at Corinth, Chattanooga, Chickamauga, Lookout Moun- tain, Missionary Ridge and took partin the strife at Dalton, Resaca.

The most confirmed pessimist as to the tendency of the American stage must admit that there 1s hope of redemption, when man- agers and actors revive the choice old come- dies, give them rich settings and find the udlie enger to pay for the enjoyment which may be de! tved from their artistic reproduc- tion. st. woek W outs will have two attractions this nich give the lie to the prophets of evil concerning the stage.

In this re- vival Mr. Robson Is said to have spared neither Jabor nor money to give the play an adequate setting. He has mounted it with the most careful attention to details and the cast is sald to have been selected with discrimination.

The cast of The Rivals’’ only needs to be named to prove its strength with Jefferson as Rob Acres, Mrs. Drew as Malaprop, Louis James as Sir Lucius o’Trigger, Viola Allen as Lydia Languish, J. ll.

A Society Dramatic Organization Which Has a History—The Recent Production of Trial by Jury’’—Who the Members Are Who Play. The society dramatic clubs of every city arouse a lively interest, the wedding of the drama and society lending them twofold attraction; but when, asin this city, there has been organized a club of that nature which has for its basis the firm foothold of the ultra-fashionable and exclusive circles, then does the charm find triple strength to arouse the curiosity of those out- side the sacred coterie. This par- ticular organization which has for its members almost three hundred of the society people who have been elected as desirable stars to shine in the sky of exclusive fashion is called The Dramatic Ciub.’’ Its origin can be traced firsttothe Home Circle, the once exclusive club of St. Louis society. From the ashes of the early Home Circle rose the equally fashionable, but more stately Imperial, when the line drawn for member- invitations are issued and each one who se- sures the compliment must pay $, which goes toward defraying the expense of ‘‘The Club,“ but the $5 can only be given by those to whom the cards are sent.

Miss Lucy Turner, who is piquante and bright in dramatic parts, was booked for the type writer in the last opera, the role being inserted especially for the young lady, who, at the last moment, decided not to appear. Her appearance, however, Is. looked forward to In the coming plays. Miss Erwin Hayward’s versatility and gen- lus are notable in stage parts, and win laurels in all the plays in which she appears.

AUGUSTIN DALY PRODUCES A PLAY WITHOUT ADA REHAN. “The Cabinet Minister” Did Not Contain a Part of Sufficient Importance—Play Pirates Still Abroad in New York—The New Productions. Special Correspondence SUNDAY Post-Dispatcu. New Ton, Jan, M4.—It is no new thing nowadays to steal a play, although It is con- sidered in correct form to refer tothe process asadapting. It remained fora young man named Benjamin Morton—who is no relation by the way to either of the nation’s chief executives—to introduce a new method of obtaining plays free of charge to the enter- prising New York managers. He called on Miss Elizabeth Morbury, who deals in plays and other dramatic commodities, a few days since and announced his intention of buying a play. He said he was related to Manager Harris, of the firm of Rich & Harris, and that he was a brother of the famous Walters sis- ters, for whom he wished to purchase the play. He decided on Grit,“ a comedy by Lisbecq, as the very thing, and said he would show it to the girls. Mr. Morbury innocently gave him the manuscript and Mr. Benjamin Morton effectually disappeared. Modjeska’s appearance atthe Union Square in a round of standard plays has added now laurels to the untiring artist’s fame. Her ceaseless work for the past ten years has left its traces on her personality, but there is not the siightest suspicion of un- evenness in her performances. The novelty of the week was tlie production of Tho Countess Roudin!i,’’ a new comedy of Russian life. There ts plenty of Nihilistic plotting in it which can hardly be called humorous, but the play is entertaining, and from a literary point of view is a decided success. The dialogue is the work of Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske, the former successful actress, now a brilliant and entertaining writer. It is really a fact that the box-holders at the Metropolitan Opera-house have of late permitted the other occupants of the theater to enjoy the music undisturbed. An intense silence has lately reigned through the house during the rendition of the more notable operatic numbers and not a hiss has been heard in the house for the past weeks. Speaking of opera recalls the squabbles of the rival German Managers Amberg and Rosenfeld. Neither one is able to give good light opera this sea- son, which is the only form that will attract the American public. The consequence is that neither have thrived. The Rosenfelds have decided not to renew their lease on the Thalia, which becomes a Hebrew playhouse and this leaves Ambergin sole possession of the fleld. The three novelties of the week have been Crane’s new play For — yy OM Modjeska’s Countess Roudine’’ and ly’s importa- tion!

PATTI AND SINBAD, THEY ARE ENTERTAINING BOSTON, AND Hon“ I8 AROUSING ITS PATRIOTISM. Special Correspondence SUNDAY POST-DISPATCT. Boston, Jan. 12.—The dramatic event of the week has deen the initial production of the new war drama, ‘‘Shiloh,’’ at the Boston Theater, If it had nothing else to depend upon its startling realism and the elabornate- ness of the stage setting would be sufiicient to make it a success. But, aside from this, an entertaining plot is wound about a tragedy of the late war with a pleasant vein of comedy and the touching love stories of two brothers who fought on opposite sides wound in. The pro- duction is one of the most elaborate, seen here in years. Fully four hundred people are brought on the stage to represent the army, and the moving tableau ofthe battle of Shi- loh at the close of the third act has been made strikingly real. Great enthusiasm was aroused by a scene representing Taneuil Hall square as the troops are leaving for the war. The old hall is accurately repro- duced, surrounded by the cheering populace, policemen, bands of music and marching troops. Inthe plantation scenes which oc- cur during the play over a hundred negro dancers, musiciansand cotton 8 sing their melodies and dance the old plantation breakdowns with a naturalness which adds greasy to the enjoyment of the performance. — cast is fully up to the requirements of the play. At the Hollis Street Theater Charles Dick- son, well-known through his comedy work with the Lyceum company, has been giving a leasant performance in the Sparkling little comedy Incog. The piay was put on inst. Louis and made a decided hit. Ellen Burg, his leading lady, is wen- known. here through her work in Germca dramas, .
