Mr. Whitney on the other hand is speaking kindly of the Hill men and is frowning down the tactics that have deen adopted by ex-Secretary Fair- child, ex-Mayor Grace and that coterie. In- deed, the Tammany men are trying to flatter Whitney and are saying that they had noth- ing against him as a presidential candidate. Mr. Whitney will not listen to this kind of talk and he says that he is here as the friend of Mr. Cleveland, whose nomination he regards a foregone conclusion. The Tammany men are beginning to realize that the convention cannot be viewed from a New York standpoint only. They have found that the country outside of New York is not ready to stoop down and worship her. The Democrats from the other States now on the ground are more inclined to snub the sons of the Empire State than was the case at former National Conventions. At the Grand Pacific the Cleveland men have by far the finest headquarters inthe city. and put those of the Hill men in the Auditorium to biush. Great care and taste have been exercised in the matter of decoration. Over the doorway of the main parlor isan arch of incandescent lights forming the word Cleveland. ver the fire-place of the next parlor is a massive mirror witha life-size photograph of the ex-President in the center, surrounded with an artistic scroll, and below the now his- torical declaration, A Publie Office is a Public Trust, a profusion of bunting and of flowers and plants give the headquarters a gala appearance.

Cuicago, III.. June 18.—Around the Hill headquarters to-day everything was bustle and confusion. The lobby ofthe Auditorium was packed from early morning with Hill shouters. They were composed of all sorts and conditions of men. On the pillars and walls pictures of Hill were thick- er than ever, but as if to show the broad- mindedness and generosity of the Tam- many men lithographs of Gray and Boles were given prominent places sides. Cleveland's massive features were conspicucus dy their absence. owing to fear that thei * re fact 3 of the ex. was Dickinson and — an Steen. oted high.

They had not to wait very long for targets. Delegates and Democrats every sect kept streaming into place themsel within the range of the rhetorical batter! Now ana then a Cleveland man, attracted by curiosity or some sinister motive, ventured within range. The eagle eye of Gen. Sickles soon discov- ered the spy, and in most instances he was subjected to such a fusillade of Hill talk that he was giad to — geod his escape with his mental and by culties intact. While the rank and file of the Hill army were thus engaged in broli and turmoil the Tamman chieftains were cooland calm, and outward- ly indifferent tothefray. There is very little of what is popularly called magnetism about Messrs. han and N. They practical n their hey do not believe in taking people into their confidence. They have but very little use itor Iterary bureaus and all that such bureaus embrace, They talk little for publication, preferring the silent operations of the machine to effect their purposes. Abont them there isan air of grim and mysterious silence at times. Oc- casionally they say something that is quot- able during the —_— of political excite- ment, but more oftem they shut their mouths as tight as clams and give forth no sound, uncertain or othe se. They were in this mood ‘ewspaper men tried in ge their views of the situation. But Sheehan, Croker and Murphy simply shook. their heads in silence. The spirit of tacitarnity affected their chief lieutenants, who not only kept close watch and ward over the council chambers, but re- fused to remember anything that was going od. Tammany ganization by any means. Every item that comes from their headquarters has to be dug and delved for industriously. At 12:80 o’clock the delegation went into secret caucus, Througi.the glass doors that opened tothe lobby men could be earnest debate. bass voice came through the chinks. whispered that he was imparting practical lessons in political, manage ment to the listening delegates. Now and then the shriller notes of Sheehan could be heard. He, it was said was supplementing Croker’s admonitions with pertinent advice of his oben. The whole tenorof the debate was advisors and looked toward the adop- tion of measures for the capture of doubiful delegations. Gen, Sickles, it was subsequently learned, made a repurt of progress regarding the operations of the Missionary Committee. It was decided that still more active work was needed and a number of sub-committees were appointed to visit the various head- quarters and press the claims of Hill for the nommation. The meet- ing lasted over an tour, ‘secretary De Freest refused point blank to give any report of its proceedings. He admitted the appointment of sub-committees forthe purpose set forth, but declined to give the names of those who composed them. The delegates themselves pretended to be sworn to secrecy. Gen. Sickles remained in charge of the missionary work at the headquarters. A reporter asked him to outline the arguments used to capture delegates. The Generai had no objection to doing this. He settled himself comfortably in a chair and he!d forth as follows: **There is no authorized or stereotyped ar- gument for the delegatestouse andlcan only give you a synopsis of the points I make my- self. Ihe arcument depen is a goo! deal upon what the other fellows say—that is, upon what their difficulties or objec- tions are. 1 try to meet each case as it arises; in a general way wesay we are for Hill, unalterably, unequivocally for Hu, because we believe that he can carry the State of New York. We believe that because we have seen him doit time and time again. We gay that we are ugequivocally and dis- tinct Opposed to the pomination of Oleveiand because „ do not Obelleve he can carry the Stateof New York. Wesay that because we saw him try it in 1888, when he had all the patronage of the Gen- eral Government in his favor, and when he had tor an adversary an un- known and untried man, without a particle of patronage to help him. We point out that the conditions are now reversed. Cleveland is out and Harrison is in, with an organized army of office-holders and mighty big checks from manufacturers and wealth from the gold mines of Ophir belonging te Whitelaw Reid to help him. So we argue that if Cleve- land could not beat Harrison in 1888, wher he had the fort and Harrison was outside the breastworks, how the —— is Cleveland going to beat Harrison now, when Harrison holds the fort and Cleveland is out in the cold? We say that Cleveland cannot carry the State of New York because he cannot get the vote ofany Democratic soldier we know of against Har- rison. We say that Hill can get a fair share ofthe Democratic soldier vote, because for the seven years he was Governor, he was the soldier’s friend, and im- planted in our statute books those laws which give to the discharge! Union soldiera preference for civil employment in the State of New York.’’ luring the afternoon one or two ofthe delegates relaxed their policy of silence and assured the reporters that the missionary committees were making great inroads on the Cleveland ranks, They said that the latest estimate gave Cleveland 468 votes and Hill 822. What the actual vote would be on the first ballot, however, would not.be known until noon to-morrow. Any effort to was simply ul time at present, for reason that the missionary committees were still at work gathering votes for Hill, Ac- cording to these communicative delegates Hill expects to gain the necessary number of votes to hominate him from the Western States. We are not considering a second man at all,“ said one delegate from the interior; We haven’t reached that stage of the game yet. Asthe situation stands now, we have decidedly the best of it. We are perfectly satisfied that Cleveland is not in it, and that Hillis gaining every hour.“ John P. Gaylord of Fayetteville, whose name is on the electoral ticket, is making arent arguments for Hill. Here is a state- ment he made this morning: Every man of the New York delegation is solid for David B. , we have no such thingasa second favorite and are sure we can name the man of our choice. There is no dissension among us. We will work first, last and all the time to secure the nomination of Senator Hill and any state- ment to the contrary is fairly without foundation. There is no indication that Flower’s name wiil come before the conven- tion. Hecould carry New York, but he does not begin to be as strong a man as Hul. Cleveiand will never be nominated so long as the work of the New York delegation counts for anything. Of course if Cleveland was nominated we would support him, and Tam- many would do the same, but he could never carry New York State, and it would be folly to place him on the ticket. If it be- comes apparent that we cannot nomi- nate Hill we will probably support another candidate, but it must de aman who has the support of the entire arty and not a faction. Cleveland is strong n States which are overwhelmingly Republi- can. New seen in Jersey and Connecticut vn favor Hl and that is the kind ot support a man should have. Those States will be carried for the Democratic ticket, and the opinion of their delegates on the availability of a man is,worthy of consid- Just whom New York will favor for second place on the ticket Ido not know, that is a matter we have not yet considered. Gray would undoubtedly be a strong candidate and he may be the choice the convention for Vice-President.

THEY MEET BUT NOT AS COLLEAGUES IN Po- LITICAL WORK. Curcaco, III., June 18.— Judge Herrick and Congressman Tracy were doing some mis- sionary work for Mr. Cleveland at the Palmer House this afternoon, when they met Congressman Bourke Cockran and Dis- trict Attorney Nicoll, who were visiting State delegations in the interest of Senator Hill. How are you Cockran?’’ ejaculated Her- rick. First rate,’’ replied Cockran. We meet to oppose each other?’’ said Herrick.

David N. Carvalho, the President of the. Lexington Democratic Club of Harlem, occupying a peculiar position at the c mtion. He is working industriously for Clevejand, but at the same time is attacking the Syracuse Con- vention Democrats. „ Kx-Mayor Grace is not sincere in his friendship for Mr. OCleveland!’’ shouts Mr. Carvalho, ‘‘and Mr. Grace is trembling for | fear that Cleveland will be nominated. He wants the convention to reject Mr. Cleve- land, and if that event should occur Mr. Grace and his friends would return to New York to organize a rmanent machine against Tammany Hall. He knows that Tammany Hall will be permitted to have everything its own way in New York City should Mr. Cleveiand be the nominee. The friends of Mr. Grace are not paying much attention to Mr. Oarvalho’s attacks. many avowing that they are sincere in their advocacy of r. Cleveland. The red and blue and gold-lettered badges of Tammany. Hall are in ereat demand. Delegates from the South and West are begging for them and a of the badges could be sold for $1 a plece. HILL ON FREE COINAGE, THE SENATOR’S POSITION AS STATED IN A LET- TER TO A KANSAN. TOPEKA, Kan.. June 18.—The following let- - ter from D. B. Hill was received by Mr. Charles K. Holliday, Jr., of this city, proprietor of the Kansas Demoerat, and World’s Fair Commissioner for Kansas, in December last. It contains some matters ofa quasi personal nature, and hence Mr. Hoill- day did not feel at liberty to publish it then. It makes clear that Senator Hul, if elected President, would not veto an adequate free coinage bill if passed by a Democratic Con- gress. The letter reads as follows: STATE OF New YORK, EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, ALBANY, Dec. 28. 1591. Charles K. Holliday, Jr., Topeka, Kan.: DEAR Sin—For reply to your letter of the 24th, I anclose a reprint of my speech at Kimira on the 5th, which Iintend to confirm and reiterate in a short farewell address as Governor of New York next mon. at the present time is the sole efficient instrument | necessity.

It is a scandalous misuse of executive power to em- loy the veto in 3 remedial legislation rom being careful planned and passed when so — a majority of the people's representativss have een elected by the people expressly for that very work to repeal the Sherman silver law and to pro- mote the return to free bimetailic coinage. ov.

Free bimetallic coinage is the last word of monetary science, To restore it safely, wisely, fifially, is the mission of the Demo- cratic party. Mr. Harrison compels us to submit to Inaction dur- ing the present executive term. That, 1 hope, may be the limit of our inaction. His friends believe that he is no hypocrite. He will not recant or sup- his conscientious scruples to get a second He and Mr. Blaine will fuss up an interna- tional conference delay (see pages 30 to 32 of speech), That is a stale State sacrifice. One conse- uence of our enforced inaction will be that the nancial portents and threatened disaster fast ap- proaching will be seen byallto be caused oe pest and present Republican wrongs, not by future Dem- ocraticiemedies. Yours truly, DAVID B. HILL. ' — —— HOW IT WILL BE DONE. A Philadelphian Tells How Cleveland Will Win the Prize. CnicaGo, III., June 18.—William F. Harrity, ox · Postmaster of Philadelphia, is one of the most active men about the Cleveland head - quarters. He came early this morning and putting a chair into a window recess, was soon in deep consultation witn prominent Cleveland leaders. Charley“ Tracey sat at his left elbow tor a half hour and poured into his ear and a way i that every wavering delegate. means as reticent as his _ colleagues, Whitney and Dickinson. He tells everybody who comes along that Cleveland can’t help winning, and that the delegates who are op- posed to him will tumble over each other fn their efforts to get in out of the rain next week. Those who know Harrity best says he means exactly what he says. He certainly looks it. When Philadelphia's ex- stmaster straightens up he stands about 5 eet 11 inches, with splendid shoulders and arms like a blacksmith. His face wears a half smile at times and is very pleasant to look upon. A heavy, curling brown mustache shadés his upper lip bet does not conceal his strong mouth and heavy jaw. His eyes are blue and twinkle with good humor, Do you look for Cleveland’s nomination on the first bailot?’’ **I should not be at all surprised if he were to receive the necessary votes on the first bal- lot. Do not er this as essential, however. Iam not one of those who think he would be in any danger if he did not on the first ballot show his fuli strength. I expect that a number of States will present favorite sons, and others will divide. their ballots between Cleveland and the oppost- tion. By the term ‘opposition’ I mean the handful of delegates who oppose Cleveland without favoring any onein particular on the basis of conviction. „After the first ballot,’’ continued Mr. Harrity, ‘‘Cleveland, if not already nomi. nated, will begin to show his real strength in the party. expect to see one or two favorite withdrawn, and the re fight Ir we lot wes lines Can Cleveland ca Indiana and N Tork?“ ud 1 | very enthusiastic sup 2 * 4 1 1 ri * a : * * * * 5 al State, 1 belief, that the the is Repu always has been.

Cuicaco, III., June 18.—Senator John G. Carlisle of Kentucky appeared atthe Palmer House bright and early this morning. The Senator always rises at7o’clock. He was quar- tered last night with his son’s family at No. 893 Erte street. After an early beakfast he came down town to hunt up some Kentucky Democrats. Ex-Congressman Phil Thomp- son joined him as he entered the rotunda of the hotel, and the two walked arm in arm through a howling mob cheering indiscrimi- nately for Boles and Cleveland. Climbing to the corridor on the second floor the Senator and his companion meta knot of Southern poli- ticlans, who crowded about to hear the views of one of the best Democrats of the country. The Senator’s tall spare figure and classic face attracted a great deal of attention. He was dressed in a chocolate colored frock coat and trousers, the coat buttoned so tightly about him that he looked hardly bigger than Sen- ator ingalls. He worea high standing collar and a small black bow. Back of this little necktie and the top button of his high-cut waistcoat glisteneda tiny gold stud, sur- rounded a little triangle of white shirt front. His face was smoothly shaven and his complexion was burned toa dark brown by many years of circuit ridin asa lawyer, was about the color o light russett leather. His blue eyes are shar and penetrating and his voice is a deep gut- tural that comes out clear and strong after a half minute 's talk. Senator Carltsle is a hard man to inter- view. e has opinlons of his oon which he generally forms very early in afight. He rarely changes them, but Is not fond of talk- ing about them. Twoor three more than enterprising Washington correspondents have discovered to thelr sorrow that three words which Mr. Carlisle did say could not safely be expanded into acolumn which he did not say. This morning the Senator was in a particularly unfortunate mood for inter- viewers. A Chicago reporter, who waylaid him by getting into the parior of his son’s house, on Erie street, last night, and remain ing there antil the Senator arrived had made him very angry. gave no interview whatever,’’ said he to the Posr-Disraron correspondent, ‘*‘When went into my son’s house last night a young man, who sald he was a reporter, asked me for astatement. I told him Ihad nothing to say and didn’t want to be interviewed. lle then volunteered the statement that there was some opposition to Cleveland’s renomination, I remarked that I was not greatly surprised in view of the fact that so much has been sal in favor of other candidates by their triends, I did not regardthis as an important state- ment. It certainly was no basis fora decla- ration attributed to me that i had discovered that there was agus deal of opposition to Mr. Clevelana. said nothing more to the reporter,’’ continued Mr. Carlisle, ‘‘except to reply toa remark of histothe effect that the contesting delegation from Syracuse would probably not be seated in the conven- tion. lsaid that it was quite reasonable to suppose they would not be seated, in view of the fact that they were said to represent no organization of which the convention could take cognizance.’’ Senator Carlisle was evidently much pu out by his first experience in Chicago. Every effort to sound him fatled. **Will you say whether you favor the nom nation of Cleveland or not?’’ asked a re- porter. ‘*‘I willsay absolutely nothing, either ofa litical character or any other,’’ was the ‘enator’s emphatic reply. With this he banged the end of his umbrella on the floor very hard, and taking Phil Thompson’s arm stalked off down the corridor. Mr. Cleveland’s triends declare that when the time comes Senator Carlisle will be with them, They make this statement conti- dently, and they point to the asssociations which brought the two men together in the past, and in theircommunity of ideas upon the real issues of the day. Mr. Car- lisle, they say, was in thorough sym- pathy with mr. Cleveland’s tariff mes- sage to Congress which caused such a revival of what had nearly become a dead issue. They even makean admission which has heretofore been resisted by Cleveland men to the effect that Mr. Carlisle was a principal figure in the famous Oak- view conference, which took place a few days before the famous tariff refo message was sentto Congress. Mr. Carlisle, they say, visited the President at his summer residence and preached tariff reform at him at great length and was one of the moving causes of the preparation of the message. It 18 absurd, they de- clare, to suppose that Mr. Car- lisle. who personally and as speaker of the Fiftieth Congress did everything in his power to advance Cleveland's ideas and to promote his interests should now be found in any other camp. They scout the idea that the Kentucky Sen- ator is nursing a boomlet of his own. e has lots of friends in Kentucky who would be glad to vote for him, but the Clevelandites will not admit that there is anything very serious in Mr. Carlisle’s candidacy. As for the Senator nimself he neither smiles nor frowns when his own candidacy is men- tioned in his presence. As a Western Con- gressman said this morning, Compared to ore the Sphinx was a glabbering chatter- 8 the however, Sta _- — ABOUT THE PLATFORM, It Will Be Largely a Repetition of the Resolutions of 1888. Cui1caco, III., June 18.—There has been 80 far but little talk of what the platform will contain, although it is known that several gentiemen are engaged at odd times in preparing an outline of this document for the use of the committee on resolutions when it shall have been appointed. Inquiry this afternoon among those who are in the position to know, as well as can be known at this time what the platform will contain, leads to the belief that in its main features that document will be largely a repetition, in essential quality, if not in terms, of the St. Louis platform of 1888. It will contain a plank looking to a low tariff, a tarif@® for revenue only. The plank will also, it Is veigh against the provisions of act, but the exact terms have not yet, course, been arranged.

THE SILVER MEN, THEY WILL DEMAND A STRONG PLANE IN THE PLATFORM, Ontoago, Hl., June 18.—Silver men are coming here to force the issue on the convene tion and to add further confusion to a situa tion already badly involved. They will de- mand a silver plank in the platform, and if the “Committee on Resolutions does not acquiesce they will continue to fight before the convention, and by offering a minority report force the delegates from the South and Southwest to place themselves on record. Their leaders yesterday announced that they would accept no half-way measures, but would demand 4 bold avowal in favor of free bimetallic coin- age. The American platform, as it is called, which puts a premium on American sliver alone, will not ve accepted in lieu of absolute free colnage. The free silver crusade was started to-day by the arrival of T.M.Patterons, chairman of tne Colorado delegation, and A. C. Thomas, National Committeeman for many years. Until Mr. Patterson and Mr. Thomas came here the leaders, especially Mr. Cleveland's friends, who were anxious to save 3 from an issue that one way or an bound to effect the ticket’s success, had hopes that some compromise similar to the one reached at Minneapolis would — the ence of all \\ estern delegates was the second act. r. Patterson is one of the most prom- inent Democrats of the West and he has the earnestness of the crusader in his fight for free silver. He said: Colorado and the other silver prod States ofthe country will not be satis withany plank that does give us absolute free coinage of silver. Weare notin favor of the American n, because we do doe - lieve in giving .29 ford cent’s worth of silver.

Silver will not be the only issue discussed, although that isthe main reason for — 2 ing together these delegates. These Stat na ve 108 votes in the convention, and with votes from the South and Southwest they should be able to make a strong front for our cause.

CuIcaco, June 18.—About six of the Mis- sourl delegation are at the Grand Pacific. Gov. Francis, whom every good Missouri Democrat regards as u constant vice-pres!i- dential possibility, is here to encourage the delegation to stand fast for Cleveland, „We are going to nominate Mr. Cleveland, and we are going to elect him, said Gov. Francis to a group of gentlemen in the hotel corridor. „I' bet $500 to $1,000 that he’s not nomi- nated,’’ said Col. Joe Rickey of Callaway County, who is generally credited throughout Missouri with as much foresight as hindsight in matters political. No one took up Col. hickey’s bet. Gov. Francis says the Missouri delegation will follow instructions aud vote for Cleveland solidly. — — = 5 TEMPORARY ORGANIZATION, Owens of Kentucky Will Be Named for Chairman. Cuicaco, III., June 18.—The Executive Committee (the sub-committee charged with the duty of selecting officers for the temporary organization of the con- vention) met at committee headquarters at noon. There were present, besides the officers of the National Committee, Senator Ransom of North Carolina, Senator Gorman of Maryland, deut. Gov. Sheehan of New York, Henr Watterson of Kentucky andJ. G. Prathero Missouri. There Were but two names men- tioned for the position of temporary Chairman, W. ©. Owens of Kentucky and A. B. Stevenson of lilfnols. Without the 9 ofa baliot, Mr. Owens’ selection was made unanimous. This does not indi- cate, itis said, a preference on the part of a Majority of the sub-committee 0 a presidential candidate as both Owens and Stevenson are recognized as Cieveland men. Mr. 8. F. Speerin, Secre- tary ofthe National Committee will act as Secretary of the temporary organization, Before the sub-committee adjourned it was decided to hold the selection of Mr. Owens’ name in abeyance until Monday. There were but few members of the National Committee in the city, and the members of the sub com- mittee will consult with the other members as they arrive and learn their views before formally suggesting a name to the full com- mittee at its meeting Monday. Itis not prob- able, that there will be any change. Mr. Owens is said to be one of the best speakers in Kentucky, crisp, short, eloquent in style and an admirable presiding officer. He has served three terms as Speaker of the Ken- tuckxy House of Representatives. It transpires to-night that the postpone- ment of the selection of a temporary chalir- man, after the subcommittee had decided to Suggest the name of W. O. Owens and Mr. Watterson had communicated that fact to the United Press, objections made to Mr. Owens by the Cleveland men. The dis- satisfaction with the sub-committee’s selec- tion was conveyed to Mr. Watterson before the sub-committee adjourned and aroused the ire of the Kentuckian. Before reaching his room Mr. Watterson dictated to a reporter of the City Press Association an interview in which he said: A maniwas wanted who could be trusted to preside with impartiality and effect, who could start off the convention with a bright and spirited address with Democratic key- notes it, but in the interests of no clique or candidate, and who should not present the hackneyed, the professional element which hangs tually about National Conventions to pick up the honorary crumbs that lie about and to lay the foundation of a future claim to office. inthe „ was fo , youth and experience.

Nes. - s ae.) * 5 . W tae r + ae 8 * . s ee 2 ee seems hardly fair or safe that we should take an Illinois man for temporary chairman. In the third place, while Mr. Stevenson’s Democracy is as unquestionable as that of anybody, he sat in Congress distinctly as A greenbacker, a ghost we need not wake and will not if we be wise, and iastiy, Mr. Stevenson was the holder of a high place at Mr. Cleveland’s hands and thoughtful Demo- crats would save this convention from the discredit of being run . by the Cleveland office holders. There is already too much of that sort of thing manifesting itself, with five of Mr. Cleveland’s cabinet on the ground working like beavers to secure a third nomination for the defeated ex-Pres!- dent. There is Mr. Whitney, backed by the whole Standard Oil combination; and Mr. Don M. Dickinson, with an army of ex- stmasters at his back, and airchild, attended by Wm. who is loaded down street money; then we have Mr. Bayard to lend grace and dignity tothe scene and Mr. Vilas to touch the whole with a few lurid civil service tints. All this is abominable because it is hypocritical, working its spelis in the name of reform whilst using all the genius and methods of machine politics. »The Democratic party wants a new deal and new men, fresh from the people with the dew of the morning upon them. Sucha man is Mr. Owens of Kentucky, but if there is objection to him there is Mr. non of Georgia. another splendid young Southerner, a delegate-at-large from his State, a Cleveland man and a trained parliia- mentarian, who would make an admirable temporary chairman. hut lam afraid that the Cleveland man- agers are so uncertain of their footing that they dare not abate one jot or tittle from their clean cut and dried plan of campaign, or allow anything to preceed either from sources of legitimate organization or the natural order of things. I am here asa peacemaker and not as a firebrand; and I regret to Und that all the proscription and intolerance and all the machine methods and appliances Ihave yet encountered are upon the side af those who are seeking to force the nomination of acandidate who hundreds of thousands of Democrats believe can not be elected,’’ ON THE WAY. Democrats En Route From Utah and Idaho—Other Delegations. KANSAS City, Mo., June 18.—A special train bearing 120 Democrats from Utah and seven delegates and alternates from Idaho passed through here this afternoon bound for Chicago. The Idaho men were shining silver dollars as badges. The delegates said: ‘‘Every one of us will vote as a unit for a free silver man and no other. We like Gorman but may not vote for him. Cleveland isa good man, a good Democrat and wasa good President, but we are after free silver.’’ The sentiment of the entire Utah crowd was Cleveland and Cleveland only. Utah has 15,000 Democratic votes, 7,000 liberal votes which means ‘rag tag and bob- tail’ and 6,000 Republicans,’’ said A. J. Web- ber of Ogden. We're going to have a contest to get our delegates seated. Utah has about 20,000 voters for Mr. Cleveland, and no other man can get them all, so we want Cleveland.“ Some of the most prominent men in the Utah crowd are A. T. Schroder of Sait Lake, Judge J. W. Judd of Salt Lake, A. D. Gash of Provo, S. R. Thurman of Provo, David Evans of Og- den, Judge W. 8. Maginnis of Ogden and Kim- ball of Meadville. The Utah people had three Pullman cars with banners on both sides marked Utah Democrats,’’ and the Idaho delegation had one Pullman labeled on one side only. din- ing car and a bagwage car were attached. The tram came all the way as an ‘‘extra.’’ EXODUS FROMs INDIANA. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June 18.—LEvery train out of Indianapolis to Chicago the last forty- eight hours has carried Democrats to the National Convention, but to-morrow the exodus will begin in earnest. Almost every Democrat in Indianapolis who can get away from home, if only for a day or two, is making his arrangements to go with one of the clubs to-morrow. The five Democratic clubs ofthe city will leave over different roads at 10 o’clock to-morrow forenoon and expect to arrive in the conven- tion city late to-morrow evening. No one of the clubs will go to the conven- tion committed to the candidac of any man. There are Clevelandand Hill and — men in each of the organizations, and eac 3 will be allowed to shout as he se es fit. The clubs will take with them two or three and expect to attract much attention when they arrive inthe big city by the lake. Hon. John W.

Over four hundred have been enrolled and have secured tickets and hats and at least 500 club men will go, The Kan- sas City Cleveland Convention Club, which was organized at the Midland last night, will also have a membership exceeding 300 by the time it starts, Ihe Ninth Ward Cleveland Club is another strong gation which will l to Missouri’s delegation.

They had about 350 men and had engaged two trains of six cars each; Dut when they got to the depot they found only nine cars. The Brookiyn traing carrie canvass signs marked, ‘‘Krooklyn Delegation and King’s | County Delegation.’’ The Tammany train carried similar signs marked, ‘‘Tammany Hall Delegation. An effort was made to get some expression of opinion from the men in both concerning Chairman Murphy’s remarkable statement that New York was opposed to Mr. Cleveland because of the Republican and Mugwump friends he had made, but nota man was found who was willing to say a word. Of course I can’t talk for publi- cation, said one Tammany District leader, put it seems to me that Murphy has made a bad break; isn’t that just what we want to get, a man Who can draw votes from the other side? Of course we are for Hill, but Tammany Hall isa’t sodead set against Mr. Cleveland as s0me people seem to think, and if he is nom!- nated, as I think he will you will see the old wigwam making one of the greatest fights of its liie for nis election.

Cm, June 18.—Yo Tambien, the mighty half sister to the famous El Rio Rey and Emperor of Norfolk, won the $20,000 Garfield Park Derby to-day. Disputing every inch of the way toward the goal for the rich prize and at her saddle in the final stride was Wadsworth, Longfellow’s unbeaten son of this year. Four lengths behind him Azra, Win- ner of the Kentucky Derby, gamely finished while foundering through the deep mud. U the stretch nine other 8- year-olds, the flower of the West, straggiea in their vain chase for coin and glory. The event was magnetic enough to attract at least 25,000 persons to Garfield Park, and the last throng of lovers of sport s no cheers as Tom Britton land Yo Tambien home after an admirably ridden race. Yet the enthusiasm was forced for the ro- suit was disappointing in several ways and the genuine feeling that pervaded the mighty hurrah extended to a real hero or heroine. Yo Tambien’s effort was certainly magnificent. She upset the traditions of the sport which prove the victory ofa filly in an event ot this ass to be a phenemenon. Only once before in this country had such a performance found its place in turf annals, and then Corrigan modestly captured the In- augural American Derby in a desperate chase, Yo Tambien was great, but the mag- nificent deast that forced her to ex- tend herself to the utmost, was greater. Wadsworth’s performance proved him to be nothing short of e wonder. Absolutely last at the start, more than six cruel lengths behind the opponent that broke away in front, he plowed through the frightful going with a perfect and seemin ly tire- less stride, mowed down the fiying an- imals in front of him one dy one. under allthis undue exertion and all the heartbreaking disadvantages under which he labored his heart was still steady and he was able to give the wonderful Yo Tambien a desperate battle for the money. adsworth had all the ui luck and Yo Tambien carried all the favors. The filly was the only con- testant that had its eyes for she led open, | practically all the way, and wits the nerve- | racking spurt for the wire became necessary | that one advantage sent 2 the paddock Wadsworth could not have done itself justice in halfling hima victor. Thesympathy, the cash, the wishes of the great jam of spectators were all concentrated into one grand hope that the green and white of Edw. Corrigan might carry the hon- ors of the mattered not whether the prise fell to Lew Wier; which earried A1 weight, whether to Huron, the horse of the futurity, or to Cicero, owa brother to Freeland, which on this occasion was making his ebut. The green and white of Corrigan was wanted in front, and as it failed, not a whit disgraced in the supreme struggle through mud the reception to any successful opponent could not come from the heart. The race as it was showed Wads- worth and Yo Tambien to be the best under the prevailing conditions, but the latter was esponsible for much, HMuron’s run was sur- risingly poor, but Lew Wier’s race was little short of marvelous and Cicero was highly dangerous, indeed fora maiden, Gu- lindo, too, did better than could be expected of Lucky“ Baldwin’s splendid colt, and Agra, to which little or no thought was given as he sliced a bit of the stake, was a true and game race horse. Falero and Wightman were at no time factors. Blitzen and Loudon were only in the way, and Notus, despised by specula- tors, flickered prominently for three fur- longs and then fell back exhausted. After the race, Piunger Zharles Smith, owner of Yo Tambien presented Jockey Britton with one of the seventeen $1,000 bills taken fromthe beautiful silken purse that held the winner’s share of the stake. A incident was the unwillingness Trainer Hoffman to allow Yo Tambien to take part in the race. At the last moment he gave way to Owner Smith’s argument and prepared the filly for the big stake. The ring must have profited heavily onthe Derby. Only one favorite won in the six races. Even crowd winner. won the Marriage Licenses.

BERLIN, June 18.—The leading topic of con- versation in court and diplomatic circles is the projected conference between the Czar and Emperor Francis Joseph. It is under- #tood that the conference was first suggested Dy Emperor William at the recent meeting ‘between himself and the Czar at Kiel. Com- ‘munications on the subject have since been exchanged between gt. Petersburg and Vienna, which promiss to result in the ex- ‘tension of a formal ixvitation by the Czar to Emperor Francis Joseph to take part this autumn in the impe hunting expedition at Spala, Poland. Tke utmost im- portance is attached to the arrangements ‘as tending to modify the Russian entente with France. The official feeling here is sanguine enough to hope that a personal ex- change of views between Emperor Francis Joseph and the Czar will succeed in detach- ing the latter from his French alliance and lead toa permanent settlement of the irri- tating Balkan question. No special significance is attached to King Humbert’s visit to Berlin. Gen. Count Von Waldersee will again act as attendant upon King Humbert, while Countess Von Arnim will act in a similar capacity for Queen Marguerite. The latter’s last visit to Berlin was made twenty years ago, when she was the Crown Princess of Italy. On that occa- gion she stood as godmother for Princess Margarets, the Emperor's sister. 7 Count Solme-Sonnewalde, the German Ambassador to Italy, will arrive in Berlin to- night to assist Chancellor Von Caprivi in his conferences with Sig. Brin, the Italian Min- ister of Foreign Affairs, upon whom attends Count Groben for the Foreign Office. Sig. Brin bas a scant acquaintance with German and other diplomats. The Berlin Foreign Office men credit him with the smallest modicum of knowledge of the questions in- volved in the Deribund relations. King Humbert’s suite comprises seventeen gen- tlemen, including several journalists, upon whom officialdom here looks askance. The latest phase of the controversy that has arisen over the reports of a reconcilia- tion between the Emperor and Prince Bismarck discloses the hollowness of the whole affair. The Westdeutsche Allge- maine Zeitung, Bismarck’s new organ in Oologne denies’ that any over- tures looking to a reconciliation have been made by either side. It says that Baron Stumm, after the Emperor visited him was the guest of Prince Bismarck. The Baron communicates to the Prince certain remarks that had been made by the Em- peror, disapproving the certain semi - official pen towards the ex-Chaneellor. Nothing more was said except that Baron Stumm seems to have suggested that Prince Bismarck take the initiative in seeking to re-establish a re- approachment by making some form of apology to His Majesty. On this point, adds the newspaper, Prince Bismarck cannot admit, even if the admission led to his reinstatement in office, ever trying to do wrong to the Emperor. It is the Prince’s enemies who ought to ask pardon before the Emperor and the country, the internal history of the events which led to Prince Bismarck’s retirement from the Chancellorship, cannot be revealed now, but all precautions have been taken to prevent the future passing an incorrect judgment. Fora long time to come these re- current rumors of a reconciliation between the Emperor and Prince Bismarck will be heard. Official alarm against Frince Bismarck has led the Presden authorities to attempt to curtail the reception fetes proposed to be given in his donor to-night, when he arrives in that city en route for Vienna, and the Vienna police will try to make the demonstration there abortive. + A majority of the Dresden municipality ‘voted to extend an official as an Honorary citizen. A torchilight procession has been organized to receive the Prince, It win be headed by the municipal officials, and ‘will comprise every important Dresden gociety. The procession will be a splendid t, 12,000 persons taking part in it. The Niederwald, a German society in Vienna, proposed giving the an ovation at the station there, but the police refused to grant permission. The members of the society thereupon made ar- testo hold a larger demonstration outside the station. A gigantic procession will accompany the prince to the palace palfy, where he will stay during his sojoura in Vienna. The Emperor William will start on his voy- age to Norway on the 29th inst., embarking at Kiel after attending the regatta to be heid there on the preceding day. He will first sail to Bodo and while will visit the great tidal known the Saitstrom. Thence he will proceed to Lofoden Islands, where a whale hunt will organized. The Emperor will also visit 3 ene the Ranen Fiord and the City the there race afterwards touching at some flords Which he visited last year, in- cl the Nord Fiord and the Sogne Fiord. . e 1 return to Wilhelmshaven in August. early AT AUOTION.

Lonpon, June 18.—Of all the attractions of- fered Londoners Sarah Bernhardt is the most prosperous. She draws audiences that night- ly fll the Royal English Opera-house, the largest theater in London. Much was ex- pectedof her appearance in a new play en- titled ‘‘Pauline Blanchard, which was pro- duced Thursday, but the play was generally disappointing. It consisted of six dreary acts. The critics handled it without gioves and were practically unanimous in their condemnation of it. The author, M. Daimont, a member of the Bernhardt com- pany, began life as an artist, and subse- quently became stage struck. Mme. Bern- hardt coachea him until he became a clever actor. Pauline Blanchard’’ was copy- righted inthe United States in 1887. Mme, Rernhardt will shortly produce a new play of one act, entitled ‘‘Salammbo,’’ written in French by Oscar Wilde. Despite a plucky fight against adverse cir- cumétances, Mrs. James Brown Potter and Kyrio Bellew are obliged to terminate their season atthe Shaftsbury Theater to-night. Hero and Leander’’ has not made the ex- pected hitin London, and the partnership between Mrs. otter and Mr. Bel- lew will end with the last pre- sentation of the play. Mrs. Potter says that the partnership will not be re- nowed. Many Americans, including Minister Lincoln, have visited the Shaftsbury Thea ter, to see their countrywoman in the part Or Hero.“ Last Monday the Duke of Con- naught and his suite attended the perform- ance, This was a rare compliment, as it was the first appearance of any of the higher members of the royal family at a theatrical performance since the death of the Duke of Clarence and Avondale. Mrs. Potter is un- daunted by the misfortune that has befallen her latest venture. She will remain in Lon- don ſor the present. She has several things in view, but it is probable that she will go to Calcutta for a three months’ season. The finishing touches are now being put upon the new theater in St. Martin's Lane. It has been decided to call it the Trafalgar Square Theater. Mr. Willlam Yardley’s light opera, The Wedding Eve, will be the first work pro- duced at the theater. Charity continues to make demands upon the time and talent of the theatrical and musical professions. Among those who will appear at the benefit for the Actors’ Benevo- lent Fund in June are Senor Sarasate, Mr. Sims Reeves, Mr. Hare and the Garrick com- pany; Mr. Toole, Mr. Beerbohm Tree and the Haymarket company, and Mr. Irving. Miss Kllen Terry and the Lyceum company. Anevent in the artistic world will occur next Monday at the Lyric Club, when Armand Syivester’s poem ‘‘D’Amour’’ will be recited in French by Mme. Bernhardt. Mrs. James Brown Potter has been selected to recite an English version of the poem which has been written by Olement Scott, Comins Carr and others. A new opera comique will be performed for the first time at a musical and dramatic en- tertainment that will be givenatthe Lyric Club on the afternoon of June 30, The opera is entitled The Serenaders.’’ The libretto is by Sir Augustus Harris and Mr. Walter; Park andthe music by Mr. Bond Andrews. On the same afternoon a new dialogue, ‘‘A Woman Shadow,’’ by Mr. Horace Newte, will also be produced. Margaret Manton Merrill will portray Mary Stuart at the Lyric Clubto-night under the patronage of Minister Lincoln, the Duke and Duchess of Portland, Lady Somerset, Lady Carew, Lady Adderly, Lady Lincoln, Mrs. Mackay and others. London is crowded with American man- agers and actors. Mr. A. M. Palmer says he is here for rest, but that he will try any play that pleases him. He also says that the taste in the United States is now for farcical comedy, rather than for artistic works. . A remarkable scene occurred at St. James’ Hall on Tuesday last on the occasion of Paderewsky’s only recitalin London during the present season. Attheclose of the pro- gramme Paderewsky returned to the plat- form and bowed his thanks to an enthu- siastic audience. The applause continued and finally Paderewskty’s manager an- nounced that the pianist was too fatigued to play again. This falled to appease those present and repeatea calls were made for Paderewsky, who had withdrawn. He re appeared, whereupon the well-dressed mob invaded the platform, . begging him to play again. Reaching his seat with difficulty, Paderewsky performed Chopin’s ‘*Barcarolie,’’ andthen at the request of a young lady who was leaning over his shoul- der he played one of Chopin’s waltzes. The cheering broke out again, and there was a struggle to secure a handshake from the artist. Infatuated, delirious ladies plucked the flowers from their corsages and handed them to Paderewsky over the heads of those nearer to him. Finally he escaped to the artists’ room in an exhausted condition. The recital metted £1,000. Hundreds who be- sieged the ticket office were turned away, Two interesting sales are to be held at Christie's on June 2and July 4 which will offer opportunities to art-lovers to secure fine specimens of paintings and bric-a-brac. The first sale will be thatof the gallery be- longing to Earl Dudley. The collection in- cludes works by the greatest masters of the Italian, Spanish, Flemish, Dutch, French and English schools. The collection was be- gun eurly inthe century by the first Earl of Dudley and continued by the late Earl by a large purchase from Cardinal Fesch’s sale at Rome in 1884, which included the **Crucifiixion,’’ by Raphael, and Christ Preaching,’’ by Rembrandt. The pictures were shown at Burlington House in 1871. The other sale is that of Magnacio collection from Col. Worth. It includes a fine series of historical portraits by Jean and Francois Clouett, Holbein and other painters of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, The bric-a-brac includes a collection of beautiful enamels, early goldsmiths’ work, carvings in ivory, armor and arms, German and Flemish stoneware, French and Italian carved oak of the Renaissance period; Venetian, German and Swiss glass, early Uluminations and miniatures and old silver and silver gilt plate; in fact, collectively, the whole forms one of the finest collections ever offered at public sale. There occurred a few days ago in the parish church at St. Ives, in Hants, a peculiar cer- emony thatisarelicofa bygone age. This was a rale with dice tor Bibles. The Vicar directed the proceedings and twelve citizens cast die for the six Bibles awarded. The cus. tom dates from 1675, and isin accordance with the will of Dr. Wilde, who left £50 to provide a fund. The money was expended in the purchase of what is still called ‘‘Bible Orchard,’’ with the rent of which the are bought and a small sum paid to the for preaching the special sermon, w “is. annually delivered in accordance with the ’ : - terms of the bequest.

According to Le Temps, Arch - Ireland said: the Pope’s decision that Catholics must adhere to the Republic is irrevocable. Thechurch in France must not remain attached toacorpse. It must ac- cept the Republic.’’ In regard to the labor disputes the Arch- bishop said he hoped that ali differences be- tween employers and their workmen would eventually ve settled through the simple ac- cord of individuals and the action of free trades unions. If their efforts were futile the State should intervene. American workmen, he continued, were thoughtful and reasona- ble; they only demanded what was reasona- dle to obtain and did not seek to foment use- less strikes. The Archbishop dwelt on the fact that there were no religious distinctions in any trade association in the United States. VENEZUELA’S WAR, CASTING ABOUT FOR PRESIDENT SUCCESSOR. Caracas, Venezuela, June 18.—After Pal- acio’s resignation, his ministers chose as his temporary successor Vice-President Vil- legos. Hedeclined. One of those present suggested Minister ot War Sarria. He ac- cepted but on condition that Paiacio should doashesaid. Palacio should go in hiding, the secret place to be known only to the members of his cabinet who promised not to betray him to his enemies. When the dictator had reached his refuge, Sarria was to publicly announce Palacio’s re- tirement, declare submission to his people and call upon Congress to name the next President. This wasdone. The result is not satisfactory to the revolutionists, Who de- clare that the present Congress is filled with men who were not elected and that the new President must be chosen by the _ repre- sentatives legally chosen to the National Legisiature. Crespo and his army are mean- while continuing their march upon the capital. PALACIO’S POISONER ON TRIAL. MYSTERIOUS METHODS OF SCOTLAND YARD OFFICIALS. London, June 18.—Scotland Yard has not yet made its promised startling revelations | | short of expectations. by about Thomas Neill. An inquest is supposed to have been held on Matilda Clover, one of his alleged poisoned victims, but the public is kept in the dark about the evidence offered. Neill was brought into court again yesterday, when three hysterical women, asserting that they had been taken out at night by some strange men who gave each of them a pill, tried to identify him. Two of them failed absolutely. The third woman picked out her man and said she had once gone toa music hall with him. She said she knew the Clover girl. Her evidence is ex- pected to be sensational. Neill appears ex- tremely cool and indifferent. He is to be kept in jail Monday, when Scotland Yard must tell the worst it knows against him or he can demand his release.

Teasdale’s Establishment Visited by a Disastrous Blaze. A few minutes before 8 o’clock last night the Fire Department was called outfor an alarm from Second and Vine streets. The fire was in the four story building at 415 North Second street, occupied by the Teasdale Dried Fruit & Bean Co. When the private watchman discovered the fire and gave the alarm to the police, the blaze was raising havoc in the basement in the back part ofthe store. It soon reached the first foor and was making quick progress to the elevator shaft, when the firemen reached the ground and took charge of the fames. The smoke was of the densest kind given outas it was from the immense bins filled with dried fruit. When Chief Lindsay and Assistant Finnerty arrivedthey quickly decided to turn ina second alarm. This was a wise conclusion, as the fire though hidden by the clouds of smoke was threaten- ing to make short work of the building and stock. The Salvage Corps, led by Capt. Evans, spread tarpaulins over most of the stock and precautions of a Uke kind were taken to save the goods in the adjoining buildings. Frank McTigue, the private watchman,was atrolling in front of the store when he saw n the rear of the building near the elevator a light about the sizeofagas jet. Knowing the premisesto have been deserted during the day on account of the grocers’ picnic, he suspected fire and immediately turned on the alarm. Engine company No. 23 were on the ground almost immediately. Mr. McTigue could not account for the origin ofthe fire. From the location, he thinks it may have originated in the engine-room, in the basement; yet the firm had not fired the engine for some time, as they got their steam from the Bainhart Mercantile Co., next door onthe South. This company had not fired up since Friday, as yesterday the people all went to the grocers’ picnic at Meramec Heights. The fire wasahard one to fight. Dried fruit makes an immense smoke and but little blaze, and it was impossible to locate the fire with any certaintyj until over an hour when it broke throughthe basement floor in the rear of the building near where Watch- man McTigue first saw it. The firemen were then able to concentrate theirstreams upon the point of danger. but it required another hour’s assiduous work before the conflagra- tion was pronounced to be under control. Mr. A. & Teasdale, president of the com- pany, was summoned immediately upon dis- covery of the fire by Watchman McTigue, but he didn’t get down until nearly 9o’clock. He made a hasty survey of the situation And said that it looked rather rough. He told the re- porters that stock was just now rather low on account of the season, and besides he had been placing considerable quantities of his goods in the cold storage warehouse. He could not give a very close esti- mate of the value of his stock, but he had about $52,000 insurance and he was gaite sure that fully covered his risk. Since the fire of J. W. Teasdale & Co, (of which firm he was a member) some two years ago, he had made it a point to keep fully insured. He thought there might be some salvage, as the fire did not appear to have been general, but if, as seemed likely, the stock was wet, a a spell of hot weather would ruin it quickly and the loss would be total. Mr. Teasdale could give no detailed statement of where his imsurance was laced. A young insurance man who ad done a great deal of underwriting for the company said that most of the insurance was laced with Charles L. Crane & Co. and Miller Bartlett. Mr. Teasdale had no theory to offer as to the cause of the fire. Accepting the watch- man’s account as to where it was first seen, he thought it might have originated about the engine-house—possibly spontaneously from the drippings from the machinery, The bullding is owned by David Ranken.

He will not be able to carry out Harrington’s threat of putting up candidates in Ulster constitu- encies in order to split the Nationalist vote, Feeling is mounting high in Ireland be- tween the McCarthyites and the Parnellites. There will sure'y be bloodshed in Cork, Lim- erick and Dublin before the elections are over. Already the police have been obliged to interfere tn Limerick to prohibit either party parading the streets with bands until after the election. Parnell’s brother, John, has been adopted for the West Wicklow division of the county in which the Parnell estate lies. Heis said to have a good chance of winning.

Gasoline Stoves, these meetings, as they do not want tobe held responsible hereafter for the empty threats of the Orange leaders. The government hasbeen badly hit by Bal- four’s refusal to arrange the day of dissolu- tion so that polling in cities and towns could take place on Saturday. Gladstone asked Balfour to arrange for a Saturday polling as it is the workingmen’s half holiday, but the Tories being anxious not to afford workmen facilities for voting refused this request. The Liberals are jubilant over this, as it will damage the Tories in the man- ufacturing towns. The dissolution will not take place until Wednesday or Thursday week, though the business of Parliament could be finished a week earlier. Though the Tories are putting on a bold front there is no reason to doubt that Glad - stone will come back with an ample major- ity. Herbert Gladstone estimates his father’s majority at between eighty and one hundred, ifcluding the McCarthyites. This will enable him to producea good home-rule bill.

The dissensions in the Irish ranks furnish him with substantial ground for doingthis. But for those -dissensions there would not bea questions of his ability to sweep the country. The great event of the week in Parliament has been the passage of the education bill for Ireland, which gives free education to ele- mentary schools and makes attend- ance compulsory, as in England. This reform was sorely needed, as the system of education in Ireland is not only bad in itself, but badly adminis- tered. The bill originally would have pre- cluded the Christian Brothers who are the chief Catholic educating body in many places in Ireland and the best educators from shar- ingin the grant, but Sexton got this amended and the Catholic hierarchy is now prepared to accept and work the new measure. The interview between Gladstone and the eight-hours deputation of the London Trades’ Council will result in more labor candidates being thrust vponthe constituencies. The eight-hours representatives had expected nothing from Lord Salisbury, and now that Gladstone has decisively said he cannot take uptheir cause, they confess to have little expectation from either party. The original labor programme was to run a candidate as is being done at Bradford, alto- gether independent of either the Liberal or Conservative parties. The election, how- ever, is tooclose at hand for organizing an active eight-hours campaign by their own candidates tn their constituencies. All the members of the deputation ex- pressed themselves delighted at Gladstone’s planing mill strike. The strikers reportea last night that the few hands who had con- tinued to work hadcome out. It was rumored during the afternoon that some of the min owners had offered to take back their best workmen at thejr demands, but that they had refused to take all of them back. This was indignantly denied by the manufact- urers, who say that rather than yield they will shut down their factories. The strikers are fortified by the carpenters and builders who will re- fuse to handle any work not coming from union hands. Thus the situation becomes more threatening, and the chances now are that before the end of the week there will be a deadlock in the local building trades. The workmen are not anxious to see such aresult, but will do all they can to precipitate it unless their de- mands are granted. They talk of influencing the brick-layers, dut do not say what they expect from that source. They say that the scale of wages under which they have been working has deen incorrectly reported by the manufacturers. Instead of $60 and $80 per month they say that $30 and $55 are the correct figures. They will havea general n o’clock this afternoon at St. Louis all, Broadway and Biddle street, to hear reports, among which they expect some compromise measures from the mill owners. At thelr meeting yesterday afternoon they decided on a boycott against a firm, and at the meeting thisafternoon the subject will be considered by the Building Trades Asso- ciation, which also meets in connection with the planing mill hands. The planing mill owners, with the exception of Fox & Bros.. held an executive session yesterday at 11 o’clock at the St. Louls Builders’ Exchange, Tenthand Olive streets. Col, Jas. Duross, of Duross & Olcott, was chairman and Geo. courtesy but their case has made little ad- vance. Riddle, of Riddle, Reybine &Co., acted as secretary. After a general discussion of the situation a resolution was introduced and carried not to yield to the demands of the strikers or to make any concessions. A SIDE ISSUB.

If the Post-DisPaton is doing an in- surance business in violation of law when it does this, then is every employer equally guilty who voluntarily continues the pay of a sick or disabled employe without first taking out a license to do ‘‘insurance business.’’ Nrn.. - WATERLOO AND AFTER. Seventy-seven years ago yesterday—Sun- day, June 18, 1815—the battle of Waterloo was fought. Creasy classes it among his **Pifteen Decisive Battles of the World, and yet it practically decided nothing ex- cept that the work of NAPOLEON was fin- ished, and the career of ‘‘the last of the Osesars’’ ended. The victors, however, thought other- wise. WELLINGTON and the allied sover- eigns of Europe whom he represented, be- lieved that their victoryhad restored the old order of things which the French revolu- tion overturned; that henceforth the people would be content to recognize the divine right of kings to do wrong, and to accept as divinely ordained fact that ‘‘the few were born booted and spurred to ride, and the many born bridled and sad- dled to be ridden.’’ The edicts of the Congress of Vienna—which clothed these ideas in diplomatic language—were ex- pected to continue in force at least until the day of judgment; and Louis XVIII. mounted the throne of his ancestors in the firm conviction that, whatever else might happen, the Bourbon dynasty was re- established in France forever. Only fifteen years later his successor, CHARLES X., fled from France never to return; and to-day, atter nearly twenty- two years of unbroken republican govern- ment, the French people seem entirely able and willing to manage theirown af- fairs without the assistance of either Bourbon or Bonaparte,or any prince or po- tentate whatever. During the seventy-seven years which haveelapsed since Waterloo—in spite of some backward eddies in the stream of progress—the power of the people has been steadily increasing, and the power of kings assteadily diminishing. Contrast the England of 1815 with the En- gland of 1892. And what is England is true, to less extent, of all Europe, Russia only excepted— and Russia is only half-civilized. Democ- racy is the uncrowned king of Christen- dom and his dominion is extending every hour. The fundamental principles of the French Revolution, which even NAPOLEON himself did not dare to repudiate, have triumphed in France and sooner or later will triumph throughout all Europe. Waterloo simply destroyed a man. It did not, could not, touch the immortal soul of that resistless popular movement of which he was the outgrowth. _ —, 22 — „ * 8 3 ACCORDING to the census one-fourth of the population of the United States lives in cities and the tendency cityward is growing stronger every year. Connecti- cut gained 110,000 in population from 1880 to 1890. Ofthis increase only 5,000 was rural. In the same decade Lllinois in- creased 740,000 of which more than 700,000 was gained by the large cities. This urban movement is considered by many a serious evil and one which should be checked, but there is no rational ground for the fear as long as the tendency is the result of a healthy desire for self improve- ment. The Kansas farmer whose corn is his cheapest fuel will certainly be justi- fied in sending his boy to the city, where he can find human companionship at least. If country life is all that it has been painted by recent writers there is nothing more dwarfing and blighting. Until the farmer gets compensation of some sort for his loneliness and poverty he cannot be blamed for wanting to take his chances in the more active game of city life. _ s 1» ”- = Tue Ulster Unionists have resolved to repudiate the acts of the Irish Parliament created under the expected home-rule es- tablishment. Itis proposed to inaugurate a policy of passive resistance to all acts of the Irish Parliament, which would, of course, bring on civil war and active re- sistance. They openly boast that the Queen’s troops would not be employed to enforce the law and claim to have prece- dent to support them. Itis an anomalous situation, apparently, but it must be re- membered that the people of Ulster are no Irish but Lowland Scotch with a religious as well as a race feud centuries old to array them on the side of English rule over Ire- land. Mr. GLADSTONE ’s tact and talent will be strained to the utmost to solve this problem of local self-government for Ire- land peacefully by guaranteeing some measure of separate local self-government to Ulster. 1 Tun hand of misfortune has been laid heavily upon the Blaine family within the past few years. Under the circumstances the death of Emmons, the only son of promise left, is peculiarly ead. It has the cumulative force of repeated loss, and com- bined with recent events through which the brilliant career of the Republican leader passed with the bitterness of disap- pointment into the shadow of eclipse it will mellow the hearts of friend and op- ponent alike, The sympathy of the whole people goes out to the stricken statesman and his family. ay Reorrscorrr will sot out much figure in the campaign this year.

The Chicago JInter-Ocean has already served notice that protection undiluted must be the war cry and it reflects the dominant opinion among the Republican bosses. P Drsrrr the distractions of politics the people have not wholly forgotten the flood sufferers. A steady, although diminish- ing, stream of contributions has flowed into the Post-Dispatcn fund until the total now» reaches the large sum of $19,304.63. This handsome amount has been raised by the Poasr-DISPATOH and its friends wholly through spontaneous effort and voluntary contributions. It represents an unprecedented achievement in the way of a popular newspaper subscription for charity. This sum is only a part of the grand total realized in the relief movement inaugurated by the Post-DisPATCH as the work was taken up by the Merchants’ Exchange, whose relief commission now has entire charge of the distribution of supplies. The Post-Dts- PATCH is amply rewarded for its outlay in this work by the mark of public confidence it has received and the generous aid pro- vided for the unfortunate. ö — um In making their nomination Democrats should not fail to consider the chances of carrying New York, but they should not forget that the chances in Illinois, Iowa and Michigan also deserve consideration. The wishes of the Empire State politicians should not override an overwhelming pop- ular demand in all other parts of the country. | —, THE Harvard prize for the best transla- tion of Horace has just been won by a young woman. The boys seem to have surrendered to the girls in scholarship almost without a struggle. Are we to conclude that the female brain is superior to the male or that the boys are simply magnanimous ? — THE record of CLEVELAND’S administra- tion is one of the strongest arguments for the Democratic campaign. But if CLEVE- ‘LAND should be thrown aside at the bid- ding of politicians for whom his adminis- tration was too clean and honest what will it be worth to the party? — ooo ANGELS Manufactured by foreign paupers and imported in job lots into this country to decorate Christmas trees and figure in other religious festivals are subjectto a tax of 35 per cent, the ruling of the Collector having deen sustained by the Courts. As the foreigner pays the tax, however, religion in America will not suffer. _- — — — Tus statesmen who are so anxious to ad- minister upon the political estate of Mr. CLEVELAND should bear in mind that they may also have to lead a funeral procession. THR country may view the retirement of leading statesmen with equanimity, as sev- eral thousand great men have just been turned out by the colleges.

From Harper’s Weekly. It is nota pleasant spectacle, that of a President of the United States commanding a patronage ofthe value of many millions of dollars, issuing orders directly or indirectly by telegraphic wires from the White House toa large body of office-holders ina conven- tion to promote his own renomination. There were reported to be 180 office-holders who were delegates or alternates, and 1,000 office- holders were stated to be in Minneapolis. An alleged and not improbable telegram from one of his Cabinet to agents in the con- vention, stating that assistance to the Presi- dentin securing the nomination would be gratefully appreciated and remembered at Washington, isa monstrous and scandalous outrage. Yetitis not denied_ that a special wire was laidfrom the White House to the convention hall, and such a dispatch was published as from the Secretary of the Treas- ury. It will be very surprising if the Minne- apolis convention does not deepen the con- viction that a single term for the President Is most desirable, were it only to prevent 80 unseemly an exhibition. Clinton Awake. From the Plattsburg Jeffersonian. The open fight which the Jeffersonian has made against corporation control in politics has had its effect upon the people of Clinton County. Of the forty-five delegates who came up to the county convention, not one would vote for a delegate to the judicial convention untilhe had deciared that he opposed the nomination of Judge Sherwood, or any one who had even the hint of a railroad support athis back. Ifthe country newspapers all over the State would fearlessly tell the people what the corporations are doing, the corpor- ations would soon lose their controland the Dembdcracy be purged of railroad parasites which are sucking its healthy blood from its veins. Speak out. The people are ready to sustain any move in the direction of honest politics. The Milk in Clardy’s Cocoanut. From the Hillsboro Democrat. A resolution instructing delegates to vote Soto Gasette’s attack on Mr. Smith of that county, who is « consignee ter tole SS fn gabe Bes 2 rr 7 ie * * 8 —5 N friends were responsible in any way for the attack, there may have been another reason: Mr. Clardy put Judge Thomas in nomination at the st. Joseph convention, two years ago, and his speech was notably ome of the best nominating speeches ever heard in any con- Vention. Mr. Clardy is one of st. Francois County’s delegates to St. Louis, and We are confident that he has no reason to change his mind in regard to Judge Thomas’ superior qualifications for the position of supreme Judge ; but Mr. Clardy has changed his occu. pation since then, being now a railroad at- torney, and thie may be the milk in the cocoanut, We will wait and see. The Coming Race War. From the Springftelé Repsdiican. The ugly threat ofa race war comes now from the newly-settled territory of Ok- lahoma, This section was peopled by whites mainly from Northern States and negroes fromthe South—the latter having gone there tn unusual numbers. It is to be sup- posed that the whites carriea with them no more color prejudice than would be found existing in the average community of Kan- sas, but on the same provocation which is at the bottom of so much mob violence against the negro inthe South, they are equally strongly disposed to take matters out of the hands of the law and deal out death without a hearing. However much this condition of things 18 to be deplored, the negroes will not help their case any by seeming to rush to extend protection to the ungovernable brute desire fo possess a white woman which defies instant death so often to satisfy itself. Judge Tourgee, we are persuaded, is not doing the colored race any good service by talking threateningly about massacres not paralleled since the French revolution unless these lynchings of | negroes are stopped. Our Railroad Bosses. From the Farmington Times. We are not opposed to railroads or cor- porations as business institutions, for we believe they are a great benefit in many ways to the country; we are only opposed to their domination in politics, our legislative halls and on the bench, where their self interest makes them a menace to the general inter- ests of all the people. A Fair Warning to Railroad Attorneys. From the De Soto Gazette (Dem.) If the candidates of the raflroad corpora- tions for Judges of the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals should be nominated at St. Louis and Hannibal the Gazet‘e will not support that part ofthe Democratic ticket. Nobody should be expected to eat the whole of a partly rotten apple. Burglary and the Tarif. From the Loufsville Courier-Journal. The Secrétary of a manufacturing company has been held up and robbed of $15,000. But think of the thousands who are held up every year and robbed by manufacturing com- panies under the high tariff. The Modern Plan. From the New York Wo . The modern Republican plan is to sell the Vice Presidency for money with which to buy the Presidency. Here It Comes. From the Chicago Times. There seems to be some reason to fear that the Republican ticket will find itself leaning upon a broken Reid. One Cause of the Victory. From the St. Paul Globe. It was son Russell’s magnificent general- ship in staying out of it that won the battle. MEN OF MARE. THe German Emperor ts said to have posed before a camera 140 times since he astences the throne. FATHER Drpon, one of the best known preachers in Paris, has declared himself a believer in the doctrine of socialism. IT is said that in England there are 100 lives of Gladstone in manuscript, ready to be rushed to the printer the day the grand old man dies. Mr. STANLEY has come to the conclusion that the Australians much more closely ro- semble the people of the United States than those of Great Britain. BJORNSTERNE BJORNSON has generously re- nounced his pension because the Norwegian Government will not extend alike honor to a brother poet, Kjelland. Joun W. Mackar is a young-looking and well-preserved gentleman of 60, who is sensi- ble enough to take life easily ,to eat and drink moderately and avoid fuss and bother. HENRY LABOUCHERE says that not one Englishman in a thousand with pretension to literary taste ever reads or has read a dozen lines of any living poet except Tenny- son. SENATOR PERKINS, who succeeded Plumb, ts particularly proud of the fact that he has never broken an engagement of any sort and has always been on time when keeping an appointment. COL. ROBERT G. INGERSOLL tells a Wash- ington reporter that he has not reada news- paper for three months. The literature which has occupied his exclusive attention all this time relates to ancient myth. WOMEN OF THE WORLD. ANNA BESANT’S daughter Mabel is de- trothed toa Mr. Scott, a writer on socialistic subject anda nephew of the critic, Clement Scott. LADY HENRY SOMERSET had no sooner un- packed her trunk in her English home than she started out to address a temperance meeting. THE only woman who owns and conducts a printing office in Boston is A. Fiorence Grant, publisher of Woman’s Voice, which is edited, managed and printed by women. THERE were forty-eight men and one woman in the graduating viass in the college of pharmacy, Northwestern University, and the woman, Viola Griswold, took the Orst prize. Tun Holy Hose,“ which the Pope bo- stows every year upon some Roman Catholic Princess, fell this year to the Queen of Portu- wal. The estimated value of this jewel is 50,000 francs.

A WAR ON RATES. The Santa Fe’s Action in the Matter of Grain Shipments. KANSAS City, Mo., June 18.—A merry war of rates from this city to Chicago and ultimate ly to St. Louis is promised as the result of hogging the business by the Santa Fe. The only thing that has prevented action long ago in this, is the opposi- tion of the higher officials. Some of the roads have told the shippers that they intended to havea share of the business, no matter how they got it, but have as yet taken no action toward making good their boasts. There would not bea great deal of money in the business at the rates the competitors of the Santa Fe would have to make to get it. The Electropoise.

A Hot Fight Between the Astor and Vanderbilt Families, COMPLETE DISREGARD OF THE RIGHTS OF THE PUBLIC The Lively Row Between the Millionaires at Newport, XR. IL, in Which Money- Bags Defy the Law and Disgust Their Neighbors — Usurpation of Public Domain. NEWPORT. R. I., June 18.—Workmen em- ployed by John Jacob Astor to-day forcibly moved a fence and changed walks which the employes of W. K. Vanderbilt had putin po- sition but a few days before. This act is the culmination of a misunderstanding which has existed for some years between the mlll- lonaire cottage owners of Bellevue avenue. The trouble arose when Mr. Vanderbilt be- gan building his white marble cottage be- tween Bellevue avenue and the cliffs, his premises being boundedon the north and south by the estates of William and John Jacob Astor. As if to prevent spy- ing from the windows of neighboring cot- tages, high and unsightly fences were built about. the Vanderbilt structure, greatly marring the beauty of the wide and well-kept lawns which had hithertho been merged into each other, small hedges alone marking the boundaries. These lofty barriers were con- tinued across the front of the Vanderbilt lot, fanked on either side by huge iron gates, backed by corrugatod sheet iron. The un- sightliness of these structures was annoying, but the Astor gorge did not rise till Mr. Van- derbilt’s men attempted to change the aspect of the beautiful cliffs and alter the neighbors’ paths without so muchas saying, Byi your leave. LAYING IT ON THICK. They built an artificial promontory from the cliffs out into the ocean, completely shut- ting off haif the superb view from the estates on their side, this elevated plateau being connected with the Vanderbilt lawn by grad- ing the latter up above those of the Astors. Not satisfied with this and being determined to shut outa view of the grounds as well as ofthe marble house from the ocean walk the Vanderbilt workmen curved the Astor walks seaward and down along a terrace in the face of the cliffs, car- rying the pathway by a tunnel through the promontory. When this came to the knowl- edge of John Jacob Astor, who owns the property tothe south, he ordered his garden- ers to change the path on the verge of the precipice. To emphasize his dis- gust and determination he put up a rough board fence of pine scantling and boards on the border line between the estates down the path tothe cliffs, the distance being about twenty feet. THE FIGHT I8 HOT. An opening was left between this and the Ddarbed wire fences and hedges of the Van- derbilt property, so that pedestrians could drop down to the path on the lower level and plunge into the tunnel there. Much to Mr. Astor’s syrprise the other day the Vander bilt men tore up the fence, moving it inland so as to permit the replacingof the path along the verge of the cliff, the turf being again shifted and beaten down over the Astor path. Mr. Astor’s employes were instructed by telegraph tochange the paths back to the old line, move the fence on to the cliffs as before and to seethatit stayed there. This was done at once, the turf being moved out to the cliffs and stamped down hard so that the Astor path now ends abruptly against the Vanderbilt borderline and wire fence, the bank between the upper and lower paths being sodded, while the watchful gardeners prowlabout in the vicinity on either side of the boundary. DEFYING THE LAW. All this is particularly unpleasant to the public. The State law declares that land within thirty feet of high water mark is free to every one. The cliff-dwellers purchased their estates under this limitation, knowing that the courts years ago established the right of the publicto free and unobstructed ssage along the cliffs. W. K. Vanderbilt, owever, usurped this public domain with his artificial works and placed placards in every direction threatening the direst pun- ishment of th elaw for trespassers on his ter- ritory. Mr. Vanderbilt is said to be planning a counter-attack which will probably develop during the next few days.

LOCAL LIFE INSURANCE Home Companies Now Given the Pre erence by the People of Missouri. The election held this month of the Cove- nant Mutual Life Insurance Co. recalls to mind the fact that while St. Louis does not possess companies as large as some of the great concerns of the East, it is the home of some which have been in existence for a number of years and are regarded with more trust than many of the larger companies about which so much is constantly heard. The time was when s0 Many wild cat companies made this city their headquarters that almost every life insurance corporation here was regarded with suspicion. There were trustworthy concerns here, however, even in those days, and some of them survived all the calumny which the unworthiness of other companies placed against the city’s fairname. An example of this is the Oove- nant Mutual Life Insurance Co. It has been in existence for nearly forty years back, and to-day there is not a corporation ofits kind in America which is regarded as safer or more stable. Its officers include the names of the leading citizens of the city. At its election held some days ago at its offices, rooms 205 and 206 Odd Fel- lows’ Bullding, the following gentlemen who have conducted its affairs so well were con- tinued in office for another year: E. Wilkerson, President; A. F. Shapleigh, C. E. Pilling, Secretary: Given Campbell, O Neill Ryan, Attorneys; II. H. Mudd, M. D., H. G. Mudd, M. D., Medical Directors; L. I. Stevens, M. D., Assistant Medical Director. The full Board of Trustees now stands as follows: David R. Francis, Governor of Mis- sourl: Nathan Cole, ex-Mayor of St. Louls; Chas. C. Rainwater, President Rainwater- Bradford Hat Co.;; Wm. H. Thompson, Presi- dent National Bank of Commerce; John Whittaker of Francis Whittaker & Sons; A. F. Shapleigh, President A. F. Shapleigh Hardware Oo.; Given Campbell, at- torney-at-law; E. Wilkerson, President; Herman Eisenhardt, President Jefferson Mutual Fire Insurance Co.; Joseph A. Duffy, Real Estate; Wm. H. Woodward, Pres- ident Woodward & Tiernan Printing Co. ; Jos. M. Evans of Evans Bros. Tobacco and Ware- house Co.; Frank Carter, President Hope Mutual Fire Insurance Company; N. O. Nel- son, President N. O. Nelson Manufacturing Co.; Alfred Carr, ex-Superintendent Mis- souri Insurance Department: Charles D. Me- Lure, Vice-President Merchants’ Bridge Terminal Rallway Co. These gentiemen have recently by the authority of the company's charter, capital- izedthe company for $100,000, and an addi- tional sum of $25,090 has been contributed by the subscribers to the surplus fund for a working capital, thus adding to the fund for the protection of policy holders, $125,000. This will ve gratifying news to the policy holders, as it affords them that much additional security and the money can be madetoearn its own dividends. It was deemed advisable to take such a step in order thatthe company might achieve the magnitude its age, record and location merits. That it will bring a large increase of business there can be no question. in fact the company’s business already shows a most marked increase. For the first five months of this, as compared with the same period of last year, the company’s premium receipts show a gain of 25 per cent, also a reduction of 10 per cent in commissions, and other expenditures, and these increased re- ceiptsand smaller expenditures may here- after be expected. The increase of business of the concern in St. Louis and Missouri has been particularly marked. People are commenciny to realize that it is better to help a home company if it is safe than to patronizea foreign corpora- tion, as by giving the home institution the business the money is kept in circulation here, while whatever is contributed to out- Side concerns takes money out of this community to benefit another. Then in case of death it is much more convenient and satisfactory todeal witha home company than witha corporation 1,000 milesaway. In addition to this the Covenant Mutual deposits with the Insurance Department of the State of Mis- souriin trust for — holders, Missouri State or United States bonds or deeds of trust on real estate situated in the State, that part of a remium of a policy which is set aside as a und forthe payment of aod gu oy | when it becomes due. The superintendent of Insur- ance also places on each policy this oficial certiticate: ‘‘*This pos is registered and secured by pledge of bonds or deeds of trust on real estate, deposited with this Depart- ment. Just as the National banknotes are secured by United States bonds deposited with the United States Treasury to protect the hoid- ers of the notes, so are holders of insurance policies in the Covenant Mutual protected by securities deposited with the State In- surance Department, and it is the only com- pany doing business in the State which so secures its policy-holders. All its policies are registered and secured by gilt-edged securities, so that there is no pros- pect of the holders of one of them losing anything. These things all have a strong influence on people who contemplate insuring and it is this desire to be thoroughly secured and to give a home company the benefit of business that is ac- countabie for the rapid strides being made by the Covenant Mutual.

Sketch of the Western Passenger Associa- tion’s New Chairman. At a meeting of the Western Passenger Association in Chicago yesterday, Mr. Burns D. Caldwell, Assistant General Passenger Agent of the Missouri Pacific, was elected chairman of that body, an exalted and very responsible position. The selection of Mr. Caldwell is generally said in railroad circles to be a recognition of rare ability and though a young man he has all the neces- sary qualifications to manage the affairs or the association which will fall to his lot as chairman. Mr. Caldwell is only 34 years of age, but looks younger. He was orn in Placerville, Eldorado County, Call- fornia, in 1858, and, when a child, went East with his parents, who made their home in Terre Haute, Ind. He entered the rallroad service at Terre Haute inthe auditor’s office of the Vandalia road in 1876. In 1881 when he came to St. Louis be was made chief clerk in the general passenger and ticket offices of the Vandalia and resigned that position in 1886 to accept a similar position with the Missour! Pacific and Iron Mountain roads. In 1888 he was appointed Assistant General Passenge* and Ticket Agent, a position he still occupies. His rise has been steady and each advance was won on his merits. Mr. Caldwell calls himself a Sst. Louisan, as he has never left the city since his advent here eleven years ago. He married Miss Bowman, daughter of Bishop Bowman, and has a handsome home at 8029 Washington avenue. In accepting the Chairmanship of the Western Passenger As- sociation, Mr. Caldwell will be compelled to make his home in Chicago and, in a manner, sever his St. uls connections, He = ~ * * N — Burns D.

He will preside overa body of twenty general managers of railroads, every one of whom 1s older than he, a fact which would be sum cient to make the new Chairman nervous were it not that he has frequently been called in as arbitrator to decide some dificult prob- lems for these managers, Missouri Pacific offices Mr. with him the best wishes of all the clerks who know him.

LOUIS, SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 19. 1892. — ee “OF PASSES. Distribute Them Freely Delegates and Candidates. A NEW FORM OF FREE TICKETS IN- VENTED FOR POLITICAL USAGE Many of the Delegates Only Given a Ticket One Way in Order That They Might Be Held tn Line—Why Judge Gibson Paid His Fare-—Some Disgraceful Dis- closures. It would have been hard to find a delegate % the Hannibal convention last week who didn’t bave a railroad passin his pocket. Indeed, most of them had several. The St. Louis delegates were especially well provid- ed tor im this respect. The most influential Among them had little packages of passes, which had been given them to distribute among the delegates according to certain in- structions. State Representative Alonzo C. the Vice-President of the Wig- up to Han- vest pocket fairly bulging with Burlington passes be- tween Hannibal and st. Louis, which had been put in his charge for discreet handling by John Carroll, the political attorney of the road. Representative Church is too affable in his manner to please the push, and to- wards the evening of convention day the del- egates who didn’t like his condescending ways began to revile him, as is generally the way of political beneficiaries. These passes were not the ordinary Diank passes which are filled out in ink with a name on them and the reason why they were issued. They were the passes that the railroads are using altogether now for their political work. They bear no sign to show where they came from, and they cannot betraced. They are printed tickets, with Dankes left for the names of the stations. These names are put in by astamp. The tickets are transferable, of course, as the name of the receiver is not on them. They are torn out of a little book, and each ticket has a return cou- pon tacked on, with a line of perforation separating the two parts. Many of the dele- gates found after they gotto Hannibal that they had been given only the ‘‘going’’ part of the ticket py the rallroad agents, and had nothing to carry them back. The idea that the ‘‘return’’ half of the ticket had some- thing to do with their votes in the conven- tion struck all of them unpleasantly. None ofthem liked to feel that their votes were held as cheap as the price of a ticket from Hannibal to st. Louis. CHARGED CHURCH WITH SCHEMING. Standing ig front ofthe Opera-house were a number of the St. Louis men walting for the balloting to begin. Among them was T. B. Harvey, one ofthe managers of the Bond campaign. Up came a delegate fanning and fretting because he didn’t. have a return ticket. „Why there are plenty of them around here,’’ said another delegate; ‘‘I had four this morning, but I’ve given them al away. „m you get me one?“ asked the other St. Louis man eargeriy. ' „Oh, thereare lots of them around,“ re- plied the more fortunate delegate, evasively. es, there are, said Mr. Harvey, who had caught a part of this conversation, but you’ ve got to go to Church to get them.’’ „huren! said the delegate, as he turned @way, ‘‘l’ll see myself going to Church fora pass. He's got a lot fromthe railroads to give to the boys, and he’s using them to boast himself to the Senate. He don’t get me un- der ubligations to him that way.’’ The delewates who were shrewd found out that they were not obliged to go to Kepre.- sentative Church. Strangely enough, allof the Bond men came up to Hannibal on pass- es,and Clarence L. Hoblitzelle and Clerk Thomas K. Barrett of the Liouse of Lelegates gavethem Out unstintedly. Iney were the same kind of tickets that Kepresentative ‘Church had and evidently came from the same source. WHY JUDGE GIBSON PAID FARE. Not only the delegates, but the candidates for State offices, had passes. There werea score of them there, from Kallroad Commis- sioner up to Governor, and the celegates charged every one of them with using passes while the heated campaign talk went onin the lobby. None of those accusations were made directly tothe candidates concerned, except in one instance. That was when Judge ames Gibson was asked ina jocular way if e had come to Hannibal on a pass. No, sir, he said. ‘‘I never use passes. Ipay my fare on every railroad, wherever I . Lbelieve that every candidate for office ust settle with nic own conscience the ques- tion of passes and I have nothing iosay about nybody who travels on a pass, but I fons azo decided that I coulan’t take one from the rallroads, and I never have since. WhenI was Mayor of Kansas City the there offered mean annual pass. I Bent it back each time. A short time after at the city became involved in a dispute with one of them abouta street. I took our neerand wenttothe place where trouble was. We met one or the officers of the road and the company’s en- gineer, and looked over the ground, postponinga decision. It was a matter of expense to one side orthe other. The next day I gotan annual pass over that road. The who sent it vas an agent of the road at gas City anda prominent member of the churech.. 1 sent tlie pass back to him and asked him how he could do sucha thing, pro- fessing the regard forthe right that he did, and knowing that at that moment 1 was try- ing to decide a case in which the city’s inter- was balance: against that of the railroad. — thing mae me pretty angry at the , and I’ve never used a pass since under circumstances.’’ * it happened that when the rallroads, at the beginning of the ttate campaign, put into on a plan tocompromise the candl- for State offices they let Judge Gibson . The attorneys for the roads found out month ago who were going to be the candl- for the Democratic nominations, sent each of them a polite jetter, asking to be wed to furnish them with transportation their Campaign, putting it on the thatthe roads would profit by the that would traveltoand from con- AG mass-mectings.

My record in the Le fature will show thatI voted for the anti- pool bill, and the strongest rallroad bill that was ever introduced there. Judge Lewis Dunning said that he had used a pass, coming to Hannibal, but he did not think thatanyone who knew his record on the bench could fora moment believe that he could be influenced by the railroads in this way. L. B. ‘Woodside and Col. Washington Cloud were not talked with. Mr, Wood- side’s manager in tue convention was a rai dad lawyer. Col. Cloud’s principal friend was T. D. Steele, formerly read 4 clerk of the House of Representatives. Bot of those gentlemen left Hannibal with a party of delegates from which the conductor emerged withouta single ticket as he made his rounds. There was one delegate from St. Louis who didn’t goupto Hannibal on a pass. This was Frederick Gottschalk of the Eleventh Ward, a sturdy German Democrat, with old- fashioned ideas of the Caty ofa delegate toa convention. He was a Benton man. The day before the convention Clarence Hoblitgelle went to him and offered three passes. **I can’t take them,’’ said Gottschalk. ‘‘Nonsense,”’ said Hobliitzelle. ‘‘Take them and use them. I [take them you'll expect me to vote for Bond, won't you?’’ said the old German. Not necessarily. said Hoblitzelle. **Well, don't want them, anyway, Hob,“ said Gottschalk. Denny Devoy, who went up to Hanni- bal for Benton, heard that Gotts- chalk had refused Hoblitzelie passes, and he got two and took them to the dele- ate, believing that they would be accepted rom him.

The Meeting Opens in the House of Dele- gates Chamber Tuesday Morning—Re- ception, Banquet, Drive and Excur- sion for the Entertainment of the Visitors. The ‘‘down-stairs’’ department of news paper offices will be ably represented in this city during the coming week, when the fourth annual convention of the International Printing Pressmen’s Union will be held here. From present indications, it will be the largest gathering of pressmen ever held m this country, as representatives from all the large cities of the United States and Canada are expected. Though only four years old, the union has already taken a high rank in the list of labor organizations of power, and shows a lusty vigor remarkable for so youthful an organ- ization. Some able men and master ma- chinists are members of the organization, and thelr views and opinions on matters in their line are carefully weighed by the press- makers of the United States and the news- paper owners. The convention will be made up of experienced men, in whose de- tment more progress has been made in the past twenty-fiVe years than in any other mechanical field, the credit for which must be given to them for their able suggestions. Pressmen’s Union, No 6, of this city, through its com- mittee of arrangements, will endeavor to show the delegates and visitors genuine St. Louis hospitality. THE PROGRAMME. It is proposed to give the delegates a recep- tion at Hotel Rozier, Thirteenth and Olive streets, Monday evening at 8 o’clock, Tues- day morning allthe délegates will have ar- rived and the convention will be called to order in the House of Delegates Cham- ber, City Hall, at 10 o’clock in the forenoon. The committee will be in session all day Tuesday and perhaps part of Wednesday if some problems to come up for discussion are not solved. At 1 o’clock Wednesday after- noon carriages will call for the delegates at Rozier Hotel, and they will be shown the bonlevards; the parks and Shaw’s Garden. Thursday eveningat9o’clock a banquet will be spread for the delegates in the dining hall of Hotel Rogier, and during the repast the past and newly elected officers will be called upon to respond to a toast. On Friday afternoon the delegates who remain in the city will be given an excursion up and down the river on the steamer Faul Tulane, which will leave the wharf at 1 o’clock. A new set of officers will be elected during the convention and the honorable title of president will no doubt be bestowed upon a st. Louls pressman. The officers at present are Chas. W. Miller. of. Philadelphia, Presi- dent; P. G. McCann of Ottawa, Canada, First Vice-President; John F. Ford of Detroit, Second Vice-President, and T. J. Hawkins of New York, Secretary and Treasurer. QUESTIONS TO COME ur. i One of the most important subjects to come before the convention,and which will call for the most thought, is the paramount one of the day, that of the shortenin of the work day. Not so very long ago the various Ty- thet were a unit on the question of resist- ug any demand on the part of their em- loyes for a reduction of time, passing reso- utions and taking other steps to obstruct the evolution in the labor field, One of the strange hases of this question, it is said, is that the atest progress in it comes, not from the unions, but from those who they had been disposed to think would continue to oppose its adoption. Several of the employers’ organs have openly advocated the shorter day, and recentiy the Master Printers’ Club of Boston adopted a resolution by a vote of twenty-two to six in favor of a nine-hour day, and recommending it to the United Ty pothet@ for adoption. SOMETHING OF ITS HISTORY. Though there are thousands of intelligent men employed in the press rooms of the United States and Canada, it was only three years ago that an attempt was made to form an international union. In response to the invitation of the Adams & Cylinder Press Printers’ Association of New York a number of delegates came together on Oct. 8, 1889, to inaugurate the movement which has in the short space of three years spread to such aimensions as to embrace nearly every city of any size in the United States and Canada. There were present, according to extracts from the proceedings of that convention, but eleven delegates, together with three proxies, making a total of fourteen. From the close of the sessions of the first convention until to day the P. U. has gone on adding to its membership in every local union and adding new unions to its ros - ter. To day there are 1,56 members inthe I. P. P. U. divided among the unions of press- men, newspaper printers, job pressmen and press feeders in the following cities: Washington, Detroit, Philadelphia, Ottawa, St. Louis, Helena, Toronto, Cincinnati, Kan- sas City, Troy, Albany, Buffalo, Omaha, Nashville, Seattle, Denver, Salt ke Oity, Akron, Portland, Ore., New York, Montreal Boston, Dayton, Toledo, Cleveland, Grand Rapids, Fort Wayne. A PRESSMAN. A local delegate tothe convention, speak- ing of his union, the convention and the **pressman,’’ attempted to define what a pressman truly is. ‘‘A true pressman, he said, one who is in hearty sympathy with his trade and does not look upon it mya as a means of acquiring a livelihood, is in love with his presses. e cares for them and closely watches every movement as if they were Creations of life. Every ache or pain of the machine is a cause of solicitude to him. Eve case of indisposition, every manifestation of unpleasantness, unusual noise, grind or strain, readily looked after as if the presses were intelligent creatures and were as cogni- ant of their hereditary allments as man is ot his. He should know and understand the whys and wherefores of every section, its relation to other parts adjacent thereto, and should be able to remedy any defect that may exist. In other words, he should be the machines’ physician, thoroughly acquainted with their anatomy and be able to use his al- terative, preventative and purgative medi- cines at the proper times and in correct doses. His presses are parts of himself and he is never happler than when they are in operation producing the com- pleted work; and, as itought to be, unto such men the world is greatly indebted, and though the ay be unhonored known tot .

Having acquired a Jeremtah Sheehan. thorough knowledge of the trade, he filled engagements in the principal shops in the city until 1875, when he started in business on his own account at 1017 Wash- ington avenue, where he is still lo- cated, and has built uP a successful business. He was one of the organizers of the St. Louis Master Plumbers’ Association was elected Vice-President at its first meeting, re-elected in 1884-85, and in 1886 chosen President.

Depew of New York, who is generally re- gardedas Mr. Blaine’s most probable suc- cessor in President Harrison’s Cabinet, was the principal subject of gossip in Washington to-day. Mr. Halford called at his hotel to invite Mr. Depew to take luncheon with the President. Mr. Depew accepted the ſuvita - tion, and his reception by the President was most cordial, the President taking occa- sion to thank him heartily for his services at the late convention. It is understood, however, that the conversation between the President and Mur. Depew related more particularly to the vacancy existing in the Cabinet, and that the President strongly urged Mr. Depew to aid him in the administration of public affairs by assuming charge of the State Department. Mr. Depew was the sole guest at luncheon.

When he was seen yes- terday afternoon Mr. Filley was sitting up in bed taking a cup of iced tea.

This was the eighth eonsecutive National Republican Convention that lattended inthe past thirty-two years That is from the Wigwam ana Lincoln at Chicago, in 1660, to Minneapolis and Harrison in 1692. During all of this time I have never yoted any other than the Republican ticket and that withouta scratch, as I shall this ticket.

To dothis,!I gave up My Own room at the Nicollet which gave our friends all front and airy and light rooms, and not a rear one, white and col ored. Placed upon a sub-committee of con- tests and assigned to the Alabama case, this eccupieda all of my time between Saturday and on Sunday afternoon, night, and Monday morning, afternoon and night, so that I was enabled to meet at the Missour! headquarters but three times until the convention opened,and then was eccupied on Tuesday with the Alabama cases. On Monday the delegation met at p. m. with two absent. Anxious to have the organization made I called eit to order and stated the usual course pursued concerning the selection of the chairman, the one usu- ally receiving the highest vote in the State convention, for the delegates-at-large, in Democratic States, or the Governor or lead- jag oficial] ofa Republican State. Hence ! placed in nomination Maj. Warner, who was unanimously elected, as also, on my motion, Mr. Sampson as Secretary of the delegation.’’ HE SUGGESTED WARNER.

Then Henderson was going to but did not give, and left Warner in a hole. It is only histor repeating itself. Those familiar with the history of the party from 1862 to 1886 will recall . In 1888 the organiza- tion of which I was at the head in the State, without a dollar of outside help, saved the lower House of Congress and thereby elected Keifer Speak er and McPher- son clerk. The 1888campaign did the same service for the national success and elected Reed Speaker. For both of these campaigns, the organization which was going and went on when the pretenders were asleep or at 3 dlisance from the work and not vogutzant o or in any manner aidingit, was done upon moneys advanced therefor by myselfand for which I was never fully reimbursea and without which it would not have been done.

Nota dollar has come to the party or gantzations which I have been connected th, directly and indirectly, for lo, these many years for organization from thege pre- tenders. Their money has always gone more freely for disorganization, yet our organ: izations and our managements have had the’ victories for the party, and theirs have not. Ihe proof of the pudding is the eating. And it is proof not profession that the part After the magnificent success of 1890, the Fletcher-Buixley-Burch disorganization com- menced and continued until 1887. What was the resuit? Was there any Congress saved or gains in Missouri? Was not the Court-house, City Hall and Four Courts emptied of their Republican officials and appointees? Did nat the campaign of 1888 getthem back again? Then in 1891 came the disorganization of the City Committee and the Bain-Kerens Com- mittee, and the result was the bare es- cape by less than ten votes of the annihi- lation of the party’s right to be considered one of the two leading parties of the city, and its close escape from subordination to the Citizens’ party ticket, and committee. That was MeUullagh and Kerensism. When the party got full and undivided swing at them it rectified that political crime and wrong and is once more organized again, through resort tothe protection of the pet mary law. ‘They tried to keep up two cet organizations but the law was too poweriui for them. Mr. Lamm of Sedalia and the Sedalia Gazette, however, side with the itaction and ignore the solid delegation and majority of St. Louis city and thecounty as represented by Messrs. Nied- ringhaus, Cole, Besch, Autenreith, Samps and Wenneker. I merely desire to suggest to the parties who are soanxious and bent upon eliminating me from the party and 80 so- licitous of my age and of giving tome a rest that that is not what 75 per cent of the party want and that such talk will not prove palatable to them or beneficial otherwise, and that the nineteen outofthe thirty-four votes of the delegates at Minneapolis do not reflect the will of the majority of the Republicans of the State, nor dothey or did they reflect the oplonionor purposes of themselves when they left home. Not that | sought or aided in the election ofa single delegate outside of st. Louis or solicited the vote of a single one. And Ihave no right to complain personally of their do hold action, and do not, but that when such grave and ma licious assertions as comprised the capital stock of the Kerens coterie.was cov- ertiy used, that it was due to them as dele- gates and as Kell to me to havethe oppor- tunity to disprove and refute their malicious- ness and falsity. Sowhen we went into del- egate session on Wednesday morning, the story 8 circulated that the can- vass of Mr. Niedringhaus cost him $60,000 and that 1 demanded and got one halt of it for his nomination, Mr. Niedringhaus explained that his nomination did not cost him a nickel a that did not handle a dollar of his. campaign funds, 80 that lie was authoritively nalied and the liars signally @iscomfitted,. So also I rose toa question of personal privilege to refute, as Il said, the story that some pup, with ac- centon the pup, had circulated that each National Committeeman had recelved forty tickets, and I had also received the same number and sold them. Then 1 said that ! had received five tickets, the Same às every other delegate, four beside my own, and dis- tributed them to st. Loulsaus, and ten that each National Committeeman got, and put them all out in the State, and that I had had five sergeants-at-arms andthree ushers ap- pointed to secure places for whom I had not tickets. ‘*‘During the remarks of Mr. Niedringhaus explaining about his i888 campaign Mr. Kerens interjected that I was not in the city during that canvass. This is many lies circulated by Kerens and his de- tective hirelings. I responded that that showed how much he knew about that cam- paign anditsoriginand management. That campaign was was one of organization, The organization and reorganization started in the winter The reorganization was and perfectet’ Feb. 18, 1888. Mr. Kerens, of course, did not know anything about it. Neither did Joseph Babington McCullagh. But it was done. And from that reunion of the party after six years of McOCullaghism and bolts, resulted the co-operative work and results of the campaign, Kimball making a race that put Francis in a 6,864 minority elec- tion, the House saved, the six new states saved and admitted and the Senate of the United States increased by twelve Kepublican senators. Here is a good example, a good sample to Vork to. Mr. Kerens was one of the Advisory Committee of the Eighth Con- gressiona!l Committee. He must have met with it as many as three or four times during the canvass. hat, he thought, perhaps, was enough of his valuable time and advice. Hie did not put up a dollar to the committee, and when he went to vote upon election day found that he was not registered and so lost his vote. I might concede, if it would be any gratification to himand his detectives, that he was in the city. I was not in the city in the campaign of 1880, when I was engaged in the Indiana campaign that won Indiana and elected Harrison United States Senator. But I had been the winter and spring previous and organized the party, and from Indianapolis kept up the correspondence that resulted in the election of four Repubiican Congressmen and saved the House, while R, C. Kerens was in St. Louis E senblatt and working forthe election o is Demo- cratic partner in business—Allen, tor Congress. He came into the party as a Blaine Democrat, and owes all of his political notoriety thereto, as well as many personal benefits and immunities and sun-flower like he plays ingrate. Complaint will not lay that this is kicking against the ticket nominated at Min- neapolis, or the party, for Kerensis neither, and has not and does not represent the party in city or State, and no attempt of this kind to make it appear that he does, will make it soeither. Stick a pin there. One half of the efforts made in the past and money spent, offices promised, and wora of disorganizing organization in the city and State by this minority coterie who are now arrayed against themseives, to ‘down Filley,’ if it had been or was now directed against the Democrats would have won the State. Butit is a question to-day whether they are trying to win the State or merely tronage. This condition, and it is nota theory, confronts the party. I do not propose to be confound ed or compromised by it. My record is not that way. Ihave been and am for assimila- tion instead of elimination. I showed this in 1880 when l invited Dan Houser to my house to alitend a caucus, and which he had not the good sense or manhood to ac- cept.

He bragged of traveling a thousand miles to put Keress im nomination at Jeffer- son City last April, where Kerens got but 14 or 16 gut of the 118 votes of the del- Rae from ot Louis and failing to get the majority of the convention the vote was not announced of those who did get the ma- 2 and purposely and for nearly an hour eft unannounced in orderto afford changes and so he was electéd by the Chairman an changes, a Seep to Minneapolis.

This does not mean standing up for Kerens until he proves him. self entitled to and worthy of it,’’ When Mr. Filley completed his interview he said that he was as much of a Republican as ever, and that, though he was getting along in years, he expected to see the day when he could walk into the Executive man- sion in Jefferson City and shake hands witha Republican Governor. What the Daltonites Claim. While the Hannibal Oonvention was in session last Wednesday until an early hour Thursday morning there were many ques- tions asked on the gubernatorial prospects. In the convention, made upas it was of friends of Stone, Dalton, Gibson, Clay- comb and Yeaman, there were many inqutrtes made, Col. John Knott of Hannibal, a most pronounced Dalton man, was ready to answer all questions on this topic. Hesaid that he had direct results from allthe county primaries and was ina position to speak officially. This was his esti- mate.

Some of Those Let Out Among the Oldest and Best Teachers in the Schools Many Complain Bitterly of the Hard- ship Put Upon Them-—Teachers Com- mittee Meeting. The following curt and decisive communi- cation was received during the past week by twenty-eight married lady teachers of the St. Louls {public schools: SUPERINTENDENT'S OFFICE, f Sr. Louis, June —, 1892. rs. — DEAR MADAM—At the meeting of the board, held onthe 14th inst. it was decided not to reappoint married women who are not entirely dependent on their own exertions for a livelihood. In accordance with this action you are herecy noti- fied that you have not been reappoitated to a position in the St. Louis publie schools for the ensuing schol- astic year. By order of the Teachers Committee, Respectfully, EK. H. LonG, Superintendent. WITH ONE BXQEPTION. The list of the twenty-eight teachers to whom the above notice was sent includes the name of every married lady employed in the capacity of teacher by the School Board, with one exception, Ihe exception is that of Urs. Tillle Riley, Supervisor of Draw- ing, who has been reappointed to that posi- tion for the ensuing scholastic year. This exception alone breaks the ‘‘clean sweep’’ of married lady teachers made consistent! imperative by the action of the School Boar at its meeting on June 14. The list of teach- ers to whom the decapitating order’’ as above was sent is as follows: Mrs. Cecelia Smith, High School; Mrs. Meta D. Smith, Arlington; Mrs. Mary A. Strait, Ashland; Mrs. Jessie R. Foster, Carr Lane; Mrs. Mary v. A. Cody, Clay; Mrs. Mary 8. Eccles, Jefferson Branch; Mrs, MallieE. Mor- gan, Jefferson; Mrs. K. M. Harrington, Shaw; Mrs. Eliza M. Armstrong, Sumner; Mrs. Mar V. Bolt, Carr; Mrs. Jennie A. Hudson, Jef- ferson Branch; Mrs. Emily A. Denman, Pea- body; Mrs, Hattie I. Wannall, Ashland; Mrs. Rose A. Tucker, Blair Branch}; Mrs. Georgia A. Bennett, Crow; Mrs. Cecilia Myers, Elleardsville; Mrs. Francis E Gratiot; Mrs. Maggie J. Lewis, Madison; Mrs. Margaret S. Flynn, O’Falion; Mrs. Mary F. Rodan, Pope; Mrs. Emma 8. Kayser, Shaw; Mrs. Clara Lehman, 8tod- dard; Mrs. Lucy K. Walker, Webster; Mrs. Nellie Gibson, Sumner; Mrs. Arzelia R. King, Wheatley; Mrs. Addine A. Roth, leave of absence; Mrs, Eliza C. Green, leave of absence; Mrs. Vallle Wash, Carr Lane. A glance through the above list will show that among the names of those to be decapil- tated and made to learn ho to be happy though” married’’ are some of he oldest and most efficient teachers of the St. Louls public schools, The action of the School Board in ordering the wholesale de- capitation, followed closely as it was 7 the official notification tothe victims that their services had been dispensed with, yesterday caused a most decided flurry in school cir- cles, and all throughout the forenoon the office of Supt. Long was crowded by the teachers who 80 suddenly beheld their chosen work in life denied them and the avenues closed along which they had traveled so long and so successfully. Phere was one ray of Nght amidst the prevailing glaom that shrouded the scene, but this ray came to the married teacher through rather aforbidding opening. The Teachers Com- mittee, which had led in the move- ment against the married teachers, and had induced the School Board to declare against them decisively at last, was to hold a meeting at 2 0’clock, It was understood that ali teachers who wished might at that time appear before Chairman Waiter F. McEntire and plead in their be- half, in the language of the decapitating order, that they were entirely dependent on their own exertions for a livelihood,’’ upon proof of which they might be reinstated in their school positions. DISCHARGED LADIES INDIGNANT. Comment upon this awkward and repuag- nant necessity was quite pronounced among the teachers who gathered in the classic shades of the Polytechnic Huilding yesterday. Let the board members take the matter home to themselves,’’ sald one of the teach- ers, with not unnatural bitterness. ‘‘To be reinstated as teachers we married women are now expected to go before the board and tellunreservediy to comparative strangers the unhappy or unfortunate facts of our private lives and circumstances which lead us to desire places as teachers inthe public schools. Such facts as those are nat- urally things which one likes least to talk about. If a woman’s husband fails to support her, she may be willing and glad to go to work and 288 herself and perhaps him, butshe may be far from willing to stand up before a lot of other men and acknowledge that her husband is incompe- tent to support her, Or if there is a lifelong demand made upon her by her own family whom she does not wish to ask her husban to support, and for which purpose she taught inthe public schools. she would be equally averse to confessing these facts toa School Board committee. It stands to reason that the women who teach fin the public schools do so because they sorely need the money derived from teach- ing, but a certain pride would prevent any of those women from standing up publicly and detailing the nature of the necessities which lead her to work. Yet this we will have to do or lose our positions as teachers.’’ Under the system that has prevailed for some time past, said another of the teachers, a that there should have necessity for the discharge of the few married lady teachers now in the public schools. There is no S of their number being increased, because the mar- riage of a lady teacher is now accepted as her resignation from her position as teacher, and Inthe ceurse ofa few years this plan is bound to turn the schools overto unmarrie teachers altogether. Many of the married teachers now discharged have done good an even brilllant work for years. Their dis. charge from service is an injustice not only to themselves but tothe public schools of St. Louis.“ Several of the lady teachers, showing the ‘*‘decapitating circular,’’ of which a copy is given above, commented on the one excep- tion made in carrying out its sweeping order, OBJECT TO MRS. RILEY’S RETENTION. „We have nothing against Mrs. Riley,’’ they said, ‘‘and no one can deny that she is most valuable to the ws schools and that it would be hard to replace her. But when a general order of this sort is issued it seems strange that it should be so rigidly carried out in twenty-eight instances and so completely ig- nored in the twenty-ninth. Smog the twenty-eight lady teachers discharged there are others fully as valuable in their positions as Mrs. * Jo be at all satisfactory, the execution of such an order should be at least consistent.“ Chairman Walter McEntire of the Teach - ers Committee stated toa Post-DIsrpaTtcH paporees that the reasonthe Teachers’ Com- mittee and the School Board bad refused to reappoint the married lady teachers was be- cause of the injustice such reappointments would work upon Normal School graduates. These graduates,’’ 2 Mr. McEntire, are young ladies dependent upon their own exertions ror a living. They study to become teachers in the public schools, and then, when they fin it impossible to se- an opening in the schools ow- to so ma places being flied by women with husbands to support them, they very frequently suffer real pr va; tion awaiting a chance for a * on. I know of many such cases, and it pot fair to unprotected young ladies who have to work for their living and who have tried to fit themselves for a profession in life.

Gar- Held as the subject of his oration. One strong point of the President he Geacribed in this way: Anotber marked characteristic of Garfield’s power oe a depater was his apparently reserved force. As laine tersely expresses it in his famous eulogy on Garfield, ie never did so well but that he might easily have done better. He never expended 20 much strength but that he seemed to be holding ad- ditional power at call. This is ane of the happiest and rarest distinctions ofan effective debater, and often counts for as much in persuading en assembly as the eloquent and elaborate argument.’ The orator’s estimate of Garfleld,as a whole, was this: To say that Garfield was ominently fitted for that office of supreme trust to which he finally was ele- as me — our lives ' vated, would be but voicing the opinion of ever man who knew that master mind. His wisdom in the se- lection of a Cabinet, his pacitic e toward the Southern Stater, his priginal and highly successful plan of reducingthe public debtare convincing proofs of his ability wisely to direct the affairs of the nation. Yet had this fual crown of triumph never been placed upon his browthe profound influence which hislife exerted over the legislation of his day would still place him amongthe most illustrious Statesmen of his age. Mr. George P. Breckinridge. Mr. Geo, P. Breckinridge made an oration upon the Mechanical Idea. Said he, de- veloping his subject; The mechanical! idea has always walked hand in hand with every kind of effort and research. Whi'e in the darkness of the Middle Ages, inventive genius did not escape the prevalent letherzy, the revival of learning wa- heralded by theirv ention of the compass, gun-powder and the printing press, which awoke the nations of E arope from their lou slumber. When the divinecommand was given to Christianize the world, no one thought that it would be accom plished by the creation of the mechanical idea. Yet with the aid of the compass, Columbus Wis enabled to discoveranew continent, and mis- sionaries penetrated all parts of the earth carrying life and civilization to every human i + By means of printing, learning has been spread erever the compass has gone, andthe experience and knowl- edge of past ages have been preserved and placed within reach of everyone. The future of the mechanical man Mr. Breckinridge described thus: In vain man called upon all the powers of earth and air, until he realized that his help must come from within and not from external objects,and that on himself he must depend, Man now cails bis brain to his assistance, and, consequently, is rapidiy pro- gressing. impelled by the mechanical idea he is neariug the goal of perfection, when his mission on earth shall be accomplished in his complete do- minion over the forces of nature, and iu the fullest development of all his spiritual powers, freed from every restraint of environment. Miss Myrtle Lee. Miss Myrtle Lee’s essay defnes Solitude and Society. The companion ship of an honest, confiding friend or alone with great thoughts of the inevitable fate fillingthe mind are joys not to be equaied by the society of those to whom, to dress, to act, to sing, to dance, are the sole business of Hie Continuing, she tays: In withdrawing from the ‘*madding créwd’’ we find peace in solitude. It also brings wholesome thoughts and meditations on the evanescence of ali things earthly, thus spiritualizing our being, re- freshing the mind and strengthening us for con- | tinuing life’s warfare. it is the holy and good whose conscience upbraids them not, who generally seek solitude. The hermit loves his prayers and me ‘itations. He loves nature and his thougnts rise | from nature up to nature’s God. The wicked seek more generally. the crowd, wherein to laugh and jest, to hush (he small voice within. Solitude has nocharmfor the young, who generally love com- panionship. According to Emersen, **Genlus is always ascetic.’’ It is not even neces- sary to withdraw from the busy, bustling sceues of daily life to solitude. Was not that immortal Paradise Lost, written when the poet’s sightiess orbs concealed from him all nature's charms? Who has excelled Beethoven, that grand master of divine melody, shut out from every sound, even the music ol his own magic creations? dwell therein, the solitude of a peaceful home, where each heart feels secure of the love of the kin- dred band. Asin acitade! all are intrenched therein, secure from vice, woe and tumult from without. Under the fostering care of parental love and gui- dance, we escape from what would mar the advanta- geous formation of heartand mind, and the perfec- tion of the whole being. Miss Mamie A. Quinn. „Far Off Hills Are Always Green,’’ a terse proverb, is Miss Mamie A. Quinn’s text for an essay dealing with the disappointments of ¢5 to $12.50 a foot. life. This saying, she says, is one of the old prov- erbs which many people are fond of quoting to others about to embark upon some new adventure. Many e person has started out in life thinking how easy and pleasant his journey was going to be; but soon he was undeceived. Indeed. it is only a very few who ever find those hills, upon closer observation, half so green as they appeared ata distance. After America had been discoverea, who helped to explore it? Was it not people acting under the influence of this proverb? Take, for in- Nane e, the Spaniards, Sallors, upon their return home, told of countries where the sands sparkled with gems; of riversin which large golden pebbies were ound, and of many other wonderful things. People, believing in these stories, saw these hills to be wondrously green, and came in search of them, with what results we all know. To writers of the eighteenth century, London was one of these hills pene ampeee so green when seen from a distance. Dr ohnson and Tobias Smollett were of the class who thought thus, and although both of them became famous, it was only after 22. olntments, which must gave served to dispel the fusion.

A VAST IMPROVEMENT IN THE con- PARATIVE VOLUME OF BUSINESS. Transfers for the Wéek Foot Up Nearly a Million and a Half Dollars—The Hazel Au Auction Proves Successful— Weekly Record—Agents’ Reports. A vast Ghange for the better has taken place inthe real estate market within the past week. The record of sales shows that twenty- two more deeds were filed than during the week ending June Ii, and a gain of over halt amillion dollars in the amount of property sold. There was considerable heavy busi- ness done in central property which swelled the aggregate consideration, but that does not account for allthe gain, as the increased number of transfers filed for record plainly show. These estimates of weekly sales are not made up from ‘‘agents’ reports, in fact they are not considered in arriving at the deductions given. The Recorder’s office is the basis of this information, and nothing 1s taken into account but deeds executed and filed for record, representing an absolute transfer of property interests. Considering the hot weather of the past week the gains noted are all the more flattering, and encour- age the belief that there is going to be more than an average summer inquiry for prop- erty. There is an immense amount of building under way, more than at any othertime in the history of the city. More heavy com- mercial and office buildings and more costly residences are now in course of construction than ever before. The Building Commis- sioner’s books showa gain of 12 per cent in the number of permits issued over last year from January to June ist. So many addl- tional fine and costly improvements enhance the value of other property in all parts of the city. And as the vacant lots are disappearing very fastatthe rate ofa street frontage of fully thirty miles a year, property values must necessarily enhance as the waste places are filled up. The upward tendency of prices insures a profit and that in view of the permanent character of St. Louis realty securities keeps the market in a most healthy condition. SOME HEAVY TRANSACTIONS. Following are some ofthe large purchases perfected last week: The Larrimore farm of 200 acres in St. Ferdinand township was bought for $70,000, H. M.

THE summer term of the Beethoven Gon- servatory of Music commencesthis week. Beethoven Conservatory Alumni. About fifty of the ‘graduates of the Bee- thoven Conservatory, some of them this r’s graduates, and other old pupils have Nature Baflding Up Its Work—What This Season Is Best Adapted Tone Few Timely Remarks, Now comes the summer. Nature is warm ana loving and genérous in sum- mer. It fructifies and bailds up. It supplies anew the old, exhausted sources. It reinvigorates and re- juvenates. The sick feel almost well in summer, so gentle is the season to the ailing. The victim of a chronic disease feels an abatement of the sharpness of his suffering. Nature does much for us, but she does not do all. It is not wise to assume that when this beautiful season works an improvement in the system com- plete health will be the result. No. Rather think that this is an offer of help from n ture, which you should at once take advantage of. In such diseases as catarrh and its kindred all- ments it is expecially advisable that the sufferer be not deceived by the bland influence of the summer season, and that he recognize the necessity of secur- ing that medical aid which is needed for perfect co- operation with nature. Catarrh isan obstinate and dangerous disease. It Clings tenaciously to the system, and grows more malignant with each returning fall. The time to take treatment for diseases of a en- tarrhalnmature is now. The climatic conditions are most favorable, in fact, the best of the year (the Ha- bility to taking cold being the lowest), and two or three months’ treatment now will do more good than nine months’ treatment in cold or rainy weather. Time and again Drs, Copeland and Thompson have advised patients in desperate stages of catarrhal trouble to wait until summer before taking treat- ment. Time andagain they have urged the neces- sity of taking treatment while the weather was fa- vorable to a cure. Now is that time, Those who suffer from catarrh should take advantage of allthe influences that op- erate now in favor of a eure. They should not pus off treatment until next winter’s stormy days, but should prudently mend their roof while the sun shines.’’ Now isthe time, cund the opportunity is just what is desired for the worst cases. Do not let it go by, but place yourself under the treatment of Drs. Copeland and Thompson and have done for you in the next month or two what might not be possible to be done until next summer, “RECOVERY IMPOSSIBLE.” The Family Physician Said So, But He Did Not Know Better. Miss Clara Miller, Who Had Given Up Hope, Now Feels as If She Were Endowed With New Life. The lungs are seriously affected. A recovery is impossible.’’ Fo says the family physician, and the words fall upon the sufferer like a death sentence. The doctor nas tried for years to afford even temporary relief, but failing to do so, announced his inability, gad filled his patient with despair. The patient in this instance was Miss Clara Miller of 1825 South Eighth street. Readers of these arti- cles will observe that the most important triamphs of Drs. Copeland and Thompson have been achieved with patients who have been given up as incurable by ‘*family physicians. After this ultimatam, Miss Miller applied to Drs. Copeland and Thomp- son. Miss Miller is a pretty and vivacious youns lady, and a favorite in woke a large circle of friends. Speaking to a reporte 15 gy ofthe result of her course of treatment with Drs. Thomp- son, she said: opeland and Miss Clara Miller, 1825 South Kighth pape For over seven years Inever knew what it to be welladay.

The power of the push“ at the Four Courts was well lilustrated in the case of Joe ‘Warley, charged with the killing of Mrs. Sadie Kirker on the evening of the 25th of last October. Joe had for attorneys the same lawyers who defended Jim McCann, who killead Hugh Gorham in Jim Oronin’s saloon one day last year, and with the assistance of the ‘‘push’’ they managed, as they dia in the case of McCann, to acquit their client. According to the state- ments of eye-witnesses made to news- paper reporters on the night of the killing of Mrs. Kirker, Farley struck her in the face with his fists, knocked her down and gave her a kick or two after she was down. ' The woman was removed to the City Hos- pital shortly afterwards and died theré that night. Either the blow given her by Farley, or the blow she received in falling to the side- Walk, rendered her senseless, and she never returned to consciousness to tell what had occurred. As soon as it was known that she was dead, certain members of the ‘‘push’’ began to work on the Coroner witha view to affecting the verdict at the inquest. Farley was a horse-shoer and had learned his trade in Ed Butler’sshop. The homicide occurred on South Tenth street, near Butler’s shop, and the witnesses subpanaed to testify at the inquest were, with one or two excep- tions, Butler’s horse-shoers and their ac- quaintances. They had all been within a few fect of Parley when he struck Mrs. Kirker, but not one of them saw him either strike or kick her, excepting Rolla Williams, a colored man, who worked at Drummond's tobacco factory and lived in the rear of 109South Tenth street. I was sitting on the front steps at 107 South Tenth street, said he, and saw the woman (Mrs, Kirker) come downthe street with anotner lady, and I saw him strike her. I don’t know whether he struck her about the head or body but anyhow the woman fell backwards, and in falling, her head struck the curbstone. I think that was what Killed her and not the lick.’’ Williams admitted that he also was an old friend of Farley’sand had known him since he was a little boy. MRS. DALY’S CONFLICTING TESTIMONY. Dr. John C. Falk, who examined Mrs, Kirker’s injuries before the woman was sent to the City Hospital, testified that Mrs. Mag- gie Daly told him at the time that Farley knocked her down with his fist. He first struck at her (Mrs. Daly), but missed her and then hit Mrs. Kirker, striking her in the face and knocking her down, This was Mrs, Daly’s statement before the ex- tent of Mrs. Kirker’s injuries were known, but as soon as Mrs, Kirker was dead, and it became evident that Farley would be charged with murder, she changed her statement and at the inquest she testified that Farley never struck at Mrs, Kirker at all. He struck at her, the witness, but didn’t hither. Nobody was hit, but Mrs. Kirker felldown anyway. She had paralysis or something In one leg and in one side which caused her to tumble over. Afterwards Mrs. Daly contradicted herself and said that Farley did hit her, but that she didn’t teel it. He just knocked me on one side, and I got stunned against the post and when I turned around she was down on the sidewalk. I did not see him strike her at all. My back was turned. She testified on this occasion that Farley had been put out of Mrs. . Kirker’s house a couple of days before be- cause he raised a row when she refused to send and get him some beer. He was already drunk end had been drinking heavily several Gays. It was for this reason that he struck at them when he met them on the street that night. Several other witnesses were exam- ined, but the only one who gave any testimony of consequence bearing on meeting between Farley and two women, Mrs. Daly and Mrs. Kirker, was Charley Maloney of 108 South Tenth street, and he provedto be anold friend of Farley’s, having known him intl mately toreightorten years. He gave both the women a ve 7 oe bad reputrtion, and said that on the nigh uestion they met him on the street and calle himvile names. The three bad a heated argument for five minutes bout something or other, witness didn’t — what. and then Farley struck at the Da woman. She stagvered against the Kirker woman, and Mrs. Kirker fell down and hit her head on the curbstone. ley’s friends did not succeed in gettin him released exactly, but they accomplished the next thing to it. He was held only until following day, whena warrant for man- ughter inthe second degree was issued against him, and — was then admitted to bail in the sum of $700 LESSENING THE OFFE NSE. The next thing was to see that the Grand- indicted Farley for even a lesser degree manslaughter than Mr. Estep had charged with under the evidence furnished by Coroner and that was done. ‘The indict- t was roturned for manslaughter in the rth degree. The case was docketed for trial in the Criminal Court the ld4th of last April, but Was continued to June 16. Upto this time he bad not even been arraigned, now he was givenan opportunity to en- ter his at of not guilty. That was last y.

Williams testified about as he did at the bo though a little more favorably for Pa for tt ,and the only other evidence for the State was that of Mrs. Maggie who had contradicted herself at * the inquest. She and Mrs. Kirker were returning from Dolan’s grocery, where they had. bought some articles, when they met Joe Farley afew feet from store. He had some words with Mrs. irker et ghe the witness, didn’t hear what was said , parley then slapped her with ck o hand. The witness said t doth that,“ and then Joe slapped che back of his hand.

Ha rvest About Mascoutah. MASCOUT AH, III., June 18.—The harvest in this, the great wheat-growing section of Southern IIlinots, fairly commenced to-day. The hot sunshine weather of the past week has caused the cropto mature rapidly. The vast wheat fields extending for miles and miles in all directions from here are turning rapidly in color from green to gold, and by Monday the click of the self - b nder will be heard upenalisides. The crop is free of rust and it 18 almost certain now that there will be a big yield of grain this year. The farmers are generally well pleased with the outlook, and the busy machine men are selling new machines by the car loads. There are a vast difference in the harvest of to-day and that of a quarter ot a century ago. Before the labor-saving machinery was in- troduced hundreds of men flocked to this section to work during harvesttime. They came from all parts of thecountry. The men earned big wages, but generally speak- ing, they were a shiftless set and spent their money in riotous living as soon as the harvest was past. Conditions have changed in the past quarter of a century, andthe farmer no longer needs the assist- ance of a dozen or more laborers to take care of hiscrop. With one or two men and the improved machinery the crop is har- vested in less time and in better con- dition than it was long ago. There are a few farmers who long forthe good old times longago but they are well satisfied with the new order of things. The farmers of to-day are educated and progressive and they read the daily newspapers and keep posted on the events of the day. The first new potatoes grown in this sec- tion were upon the market yesterday. The growing corn crop is coming out nicely in this section despite the unfavorable conditions andthe lateness of the season when the crop was planted, Hillsboro Happenings.

Members of the Militia claim that the fact that the National Guard stationed in this city is notin better condition is partly, if not greatly, due to the lack of interest shown by the merchants and moneyed men of the com- munity, who are directly benefited by the protection the existence of the militia gives thelr property and interests. It is claimed that not only are they derelictin giving finan- clal support to the organization, but that they also withhold their moral support by refusing toallow thelr employes to attend the few parades given and even prohibit them from going to the camps of instruction which are called by the Governor and are necessary, it is claimed, to proper militia in- struction. Battery Aofthe National Guard have been ordered intoa camp of instruction, begin- ning on the l6th of July. They have sixty- one active members, and expect to take at least fifty-five to camp. In going into camp this summer they wiilhave to spend over $400 of their company money, and expect business men to stretch a point or two to let their employes who are members of the bat- tery attend the camp. Battery A, St. Louis Light Artillery, will be the only National Guard organization of St. Louis in the parade on the Fourth of July. The First Regiment will not turn out, as the announcement that a parade would be given was made at such a late date that the o- cers thought that they could not make a pre- sentable appearance. Battery A will have out its full strength and will Are 116 guns in the morning and forty-four guns at noon.

"These low prices are directly attributable to the June crop report of the Government, which indicated an acreage and condition beyond one’s expectations. A lack of de- mand commensurate with offerings, through an almost disappearance of the foreign buyer and the stagnation in the domestic flour trade; the belief, if not knowledge, that country reserves are unusually large, and the amount tobe carried into the new crop will be excessive; the nearness of this new crop to the marketing stage, with harvesting steadily progressing Northward under most favoraule weather conditions; this weather bringing forward . Crop conditions which had been pronounced ‘ — cf old corn backin the country its Teeling. allow nature, backward, and the rust, smut“ and **lodgea’’ wheat complaints. seldom heard; the auliness and depression abroad is due to burdensome supplies, financial stringency, and average crop conditions throughout the world; light speculation, confined almost ex- clusively tothe talent in the different grain pits. In short, all the bearish conditions that have been dwelt upon time and again in this column have borne heavily upon a market that only needed the unexpectedly excellent Government report to bring about what has finally taken place in the markets of this country—heavy declines and an ultra bearish It is a dificult matter to turn up a really sanguine bull in the home market. There are a few who do not care about sell- ing wheat short after sucha break as l0c a bushel, as has taken place in less than one week, but this is only because these few look for the natural reaction“ that usually fol- lows such a decline. But the rank and fle of local speculation are planted firmly on the bear side and nearly every man who ever takes a flyer, froma five to 100,000 ‘ gags,’’ have more or less wheat short—generally more. This fact may lead to a sharp reac- tion, if anything of a good bullish nature should suddenly show up, as the market is undoubtedly oversold many times over and considerably, too, by a ciass of traders who could not stand a quick rise of several cents. There is some doubt regarding the Kussian crop pros- pects. Private cables have both affirmed and denied the poorness of that country’s crop, but as good an authority as the Associated Press has cabled from st. Petersburg that Russia’s crops do not show upany better than last year’s. The action of foreign mar- kets, however, does not indicate that any alarm is felt abroad over this question of Russia’s Goubtful trop. conditions. On this side there appears to be nothing particular to fear just now except a wbt harvest, and the spring rainfall was excessive enough to in order to average up, to spell of fine weather if it doesn’t run into a drought. Tobe sure the ey wheat crop is not made by any means, but it is generally the winter wheat that isthe ‘‘inflooence’’ during the summer months, except whena hot dry spell strikes and stays with the Northwest to the danger line. Yesterday's rain stirred up a feeling of apprehension. that would quickly develop a scare, ifthe wet weather lasts over to-morrow. Atread y the talk is of wet harvest’’ and as high as c was bid on the late curb for July. _ 7 — The movement of th actual wheat to mar- ket indicates the farmers and country hold- ers do not believe in short crops. At ali ac- cumulative centers of any consequence that receive direct from the country increased ar- rivals are seen. The past week’s receipts of this market were 126,538 bu, exceeding the week before by 31,200 bu an correspon ding week last year by 41,800 bu.

The ssion generally prevails that four made from the present crop of wheat will not sell ys ower than present figures, as most of the cash wheat is in strong hands and dim cult to get at the prices quoted. All the No. 2 in store is held above what buyers will pay, and the few current cars coming do not sup- ply the wants. Besides, the stocks of de- sirable grades of four are much below the average for this season of the year. The stock of flour is about the same as a year ago but last year there was a demand for long grades, which is lacking this year,and the flour tobe carried over will ‘consist chiefly of the undesirable low grades. All the old flour held over last sea. son sold to good advantage, and holders are therefore ~ ng to sell their hi grades any chea the present time, especially as they ave been, and no doubt will be comparatively scarce. There will bea great deal ofthis four wanted next month for mixing with new wheat flour, ene! if the weather should be and the ea receipts of the new crop —— in damp. There is little doubt, however, but what new flour will open lower, as it always does, and some figurinz is being done for ex- pore tor July delivery on a basis of 10@15c — bl. below present prices. Millers say that they are content to work on small margins, and once in a while for glory, at the wind-up of the season, in order to keep their machinery going. but when they begin on the new crop hey expect a legitimate margin on every barrel turned out. If. such is the case wheat will have to get cheaper or flour dearer. The export trade was fair, due to the decline in the price of flour and low ocean rates. The Cuban trade is slow, and there is nothing doing with Newfoundland. Toe receipts were 24,817 bbls, against 19,687the week be- fore, and the shipments 28, 608 bDbis, against 85,456. The output of the mills was 40, 450 bbis, as compared to40,950 the week previous. The cotton market has been controlled alto- —.— by anti- * gente a and its possi- ties. When the bill was referred tothe Judiciary Committee of the Senate the hope was entertained that this would kill it, and all speculative markets responded with lib- eral advances, the belief that the validity of contracts was no longer threatened by Con- gressional action creating decidedly more confidence. The reassuring reports and the fear that the bili might be fa- vorably reported in the Senate caused free selling with a consequent weakening in prices. While the prospects of a diminished yield next season would ordl- nartiy have led to increased speculation, the uncertainty ofthe Hatch bili is driving from the market speculators who would be willing to carry over the surplus supply. Crop prospects and other news was xziven little consideration and had little effect on values. Orop reports were good, as a rule. The weather has been generally favorable for growing cotton, and the dangers of fi are about over, as the waters are receding. In some sections the season 1s backward and n others moisture is needed, butonthe whole the weather has been hot and ofaforcing nature, calculated to bring the crop forward rapidly. the inguiry for cloths and yarns at anchester is somewhat improved, but the ruling prices are quite un- remunerative. Despite the lessened produc- tion resulting from the recent stoppage of spindles, makers have bought cotton yarns freely at bottom prices.

The position taken by the receivers is that during these two months the arrivals, particularly of wheat, are so heavy that this early closing will be sorely to their disadvan- tage, as they would be unable to dispose of their Saturday receipts in the short time given them and thus forced to carry most of their stocks over to Monday and then meet the accumulated supplies of two days.

In spite of a poor start last year the crop was large, but the season from date of the first report till the time of harvest was excep- tionally favorable.

After reading the bill when it was first introduced it struck me that the immediate effect of its passa would bea bullish instead of a bearish one, for the bill allows a man to purehase what he does not in- — to receive, but throws heavy obstacies in the wey ofe man selling wheat for future delivery ess he actually has the cash wheat. Would not this then create asharp demand forthecash wheat on the part of those who have the wheat sold, and would not the fact that there are Always buyers in the market fot a good deal more wheat than Is acta- ally in sight create a spirited demand for the limited amount of future wheat that can lawfully be offered forsale? By throwing some light on this question, and explaining why it is that this bill has such an intimidating effect on the market you will greatly oblige, WANTS TO Know. The question, which Wants to Know’’ himself asks, might be answered in the af- firmative if the conditions were such as he Statesit. But, to answer his query w'th an- other, How often during the year are ‘‘there always buyers inthe market for a good deal more wheat than is actually in sight’’ when that wheat is the actual spot or current of- ferings? It is the fact, that while under the present system of ‘speculation there are nearly always buyers for all the future wheat that Is offered for sale inthe grain pit, that under the provisions of the anti-option bill this future demand would be limited to actual requirements alone and that fact is what has the depressing effect upon the markets. As when, with this bill a how could the sellerof grain and cotton to be delivered during some future month that is to arrive, find enough buyers to enable him to sell this grain or cot- ton to arrive ‘‘atthe market?“ The sellers who can now protect their purchases or holdings of grain in the country orinthe speculative centers, would not under this law be able to do so. That is the depressing fact. The London Evening List (Dornbusch) of June 8, in its weekly review ofthe British grain trade, says: A marked improvement has taken place in agricultural prospects and conditions in this country. Over most of En- gland enough rain has fallen lately to have a pronounced beneficial effect upon both autumn and Lenten cereal crops—pastures and hay meadows also have come on apace, and farmers are much more hopeful than they were a fortnight ago. The Agricultural Gazette considers that as compared with Sol the stand of the wheat crop is quite as good, and in some districts the crop could not be more promising. Barley and oats participate in the improvements, and beans and peas are wellin bloom. In France, Hol- land, Belgium and North Germany persistent drought, accompanied by extreme heat, has been causing apprehensioas respecting the well-being of the crops. In the eastern and norti.crn departments of France the wheat plant ts reported to be losing color and the growth of rye is checked—in the southern de- partment heavy rain fell which ‘‘lodged’’ some of the wheat now in bloom, but did Ht- tle to benefit spring wheat. Belgian farmers are crying out for rain. The drought in Germany was broken up Wednesday after- noon by a violent thunderstorm and a co- pious downpour. In Austria-Hungary the weather on the whole keeps favorable to wheat, rveand barley. In Spain the ripen- ing of wheat is proceeding rapidly, and in Tarragona harvest operations are expected te begin next week. In the COastiles crop prospects have improved, but drought still prevails injuriously in Navarra and part of Arragon. Crop advices from Russia are not uniformly good. southern governments, andin these regions harvest prospects are steadily improving. in Kharkov the output of potatoes is expected to be immense. Danubian provinces and Italy have the promise of a fair harvest. It remains to be seen whether the abstention of France will mil tate seriously against the interests of holders of ocean stocks, but from now until the end of August there is no prospect of arrivals in suMicient numbers to producea block in the off-coast market. Just three- fourths of the cereal year has passed and given the United Kingdom foreign bread- stuffs to the extent of 141,776,000 bu, being at the rate 6f nearly 176,000, 000 bu per annum, or about 24,000,000 bu more than our estimated requirements. Such unusual supplies are sufficient to account for the quietness now pervading the markets independently of fine weather and better crop prospects. It seems unreasonable to expect much activity in the market until early autumn shall reveal the position of stocks and the sources and quan- tity of supply for the coming campaign. quirements, From the Street.

Bell of Boonville, Mo., one of the best posted men in the State as to the apple crop, being regarded as the apple king of Missouri, having packed more of this fruit the past several years than any other ship- per, in a late interview says: Taken as a whole there will be less than half a crop of apples in Missouri. The cola, wet weather which prevailed when it should have been dry has caused the buds to drop on the most desirable varieties. Winesaps and Smith’s cider apples will be almost an en- tire fallure. Upon the other hand the Geneting, which is the least desir- able apple, singularly enough is the only variety which promises to turn out a full crop. Thisis due to the fact that the gen iting blooms later than the other varieties and the buds were not so affected by the cold and wet weather earlier in the season. The geniting trees are so loaded down with buds that I have advised the growers to go through them and thin them out at least twice before the fruſt ripens.

LEADVILLE, Colo., June 18.—The develop- ments in the mines here for the past week are of great importance to mining men; in addition tothe wonderful discoveries in the Gordon property (gold), and othtr proper- ties located in the same section some fifteen miles from here, some very fine strikes were also made at home. The Gordon mine is located on Mt, Elbert and during the past few months an immense amount of mineral has been blocked out. It is worked by tunnels and the vein isto be found in all these which are run in in different portions of the mountain. The vein in the Gordon averages four feet in width and in some points is at least thirty feet wide. It lies between a foot-wall of ‘‘corn’’ granite. In the breast of the workings a streak of very rich mineral about sixteen inches in width has been opened up. Large particles of free gold are to be seen and can be scraped off with the finger. From this streak seventy- two pounds of ore was taken this week and this gave returns of over seventy-three ounces of gold; the streak gives an average return of $40,000 a ton, and some of the as- says return much higher figures. In the upper tunnels there is nearly $1,000,000 worth of ore to be blocked out and there is every evidence to believe thatthe entire property is filled with thousands of tonsof mineral yet to be disclosed. A cable tramway has just been finished whichis over fitteen hun- dred feet long and runs from the mine to the mill. Thig mill, although a crude concern, is at present clearing up $18,000a week, paying 7 per cent dividends on 1,000,000. The com- pany has at present in contemplation the erection ofa forty- stamp mill. It goes with- out saying that the Gordon, which is already pe ig no chan ronicle and stocks of THE H.

It is stated on good ausboeky that the main - tenance of a 6 per cent dividend on Louisville & Nashville Rallroad stock depends largely on the earnings of the current quarter. Should net earnings in the remaining three months con- tinue to show such gains as those of Febru- ary and March, there might be a surplus after paying the 5 per cent dividend, but the prospect of the maintenance of the dividend appears doubtful, The results of the month of April are extremely poor, the ss earn- ings have increased $119,000, but net earn- ings have risen only some „ It Is estimated that fixed charges will require an increased sum of $616,000, and that to pay 6 per cent on the shares would call for 82 more than last year, in all an addition to the capital and other charges of $856,000- 10 meet this net earnings in the ten months have risen only $287,000. There was a surplus valance in 1890-91 of $656,000, so that the 5 per cent dividend, if the net earningsof May and June of last year are maintained, would only just be covered, if this balance were ayaila- ble. To pay 1 per cent dividend on the ordl- nary Capital requires $525,000. y's? * * * H.

TWO BIG SURPRISES IN THE BROOKLYN HANDICAP AND AMERICAN DEBBY. Am Enormous Throng Witnesses Mon- tana’s Splendid Victory on the Sheeps- head Track—Yo Tambien Wins a Splendid Victory on a Heavy Course at Garfield Park. The heavy downpour that took place a short time previous to the opening race at the Fair Grounds yesterday placed the course in frightful condition. It really looked more like a swamp than a racetrack and the result was horses that revel in heavy going were in their glory. The rain had much to do with cutting down the attendance, which, as a rule,on Saturday is enormous. As it was the crowd numbered about 5,000. Seven races, including two stake events, furntshed the sport, which, despite the condition of of the course, was first-class. Only two favorites were successful. This fact, however did not cause the dissatisfaction 60 generally following the downfall of the public’s choices. The reason was that they were not backed as ‘ heavily as would have occurred under ordi- ‘Mary circumstances. 1 ‘faced the starter, stretch Lucy 7 8 “Th | e . „ bs " ' » 1 0 * ¢ 1 — 2 " fos Soe « : he ‘ ae Ae 99 , } « We > 1 eye 5 ow 9 * 7 v 4 * a „ a 28 . a ee ye ¥ ‘ 7 , ee ’ 7 . iw ** . This was due to the heavy going, Which kept many from backing several good ones who have been running quite consistently of late on a fast, dry course, but who demonstrated yesterday heavy going was not much to their taste. J. D. Patton’s Maud B. seemed to have the call in the opening event; she was quoted at 8toland in all probability carried more money than any other horse in the race. Miss Mary ans toishot won handily, The favorite hada dificult time securing third place. Ruby Payne was slated to do the trick in the next event, but Osceola, an old Gloucester and East Side performer, who went to the post at 10 to 1 led his field in the handiest manner. King Lee, who is considered by many one of the best 2-year-olds in the West, was a hot favorite for the Osage stakes. Even money was posted on him all along the line, at which figure most of the crowd put their cash on him. Falstaffat2tol was also well liked by a number, many of whom wit- messed his splendid workin the Meramac stakes last Tuesday, when it will be remem- Dered he was beaten by King Lee after a desperate contest. The favorite get the pace from the start yesterday and won bands down. The big event of the afternoon, the Cyclone Handicap, followed. A bunchof good ones Aloha, Guido, Bolivar Buckner and Oregon Eclipse going tothe post. Boliver Buckner seemed to be the public’s choice,at least he closed at the short- est price, 8 to & Notwithstanding the fact that the great Alaho is not reckoneda good performer in the mud, he was made the “choice, at 5 .to2. Guideets.to 1 car- ried deal of money. Babb’s son of Double Cross always likes a heavy course, ana those who recollected this fact yosterday congratulated themselves after- ward, He went to the front before the half-mile post had been reached and was never afterwards seriously bothered. McCafferty’s work ip the saddle was a splen- did piece of jockyship, and had it not been for his riding St. Mungo’s great son could never have finished where he did. Barney, a red hot favorite at 4 to 6, had things all his own easy in the fourth race. He went tothe fore shortly after the fag Mashed and won hands down. Mary Sue a well-backed second choice atiltoS had an easy victory in the next race. Dave Pulsifer, the favorite, failed to figure any extent in it ta point. Kenwood, an extensively played « to ishot, made a show of everything hat started inthe closingevent. He went to the front almost immediately after the start and kept increasing his leadership until the wire was reached, when he finished some two lengths in front. Emma Primrose, the favorite, who closed at 3 to 2, managed to sneak in and capture third place. The sum- maries of the day follow. First race, purse $500, of which $75 to second and do third.

Passing the stand he was still leading, with the rest pretty evenly bunched, At the first quarter, however, Kenwood bounded to the fore, and from this point onward the race was nothing but a walk - over for him. At the half he was three lengths ahead of Emma Primrose, who was battling as they moved along with Lord WII lowbrooke. Atthe three-quarter post Ken- wood was four lengths in front of Willow- brooke, who had passed Emma Primrose. In the turn to the stretch Kenwood was leading by six lengths, Lord Willowbrooke was a length and a half in front of Emma Primrose. Coming down the stretch Ken- wood continued to increase his lead and ssing the wire he won by fully ten open engths. Lord Willowbrooke was about two in front of Emma Primrose.

MARCUS DALY’S COLT CAPTURES THE BROOKLYN HANDICAP IN GRAND STYLE. SHEEPSHEAD Bar, June 18.—The great race event, the Suburban Handicap, for one of the largest stakes ofthe year, was run to-day over the Sheepshead Bay track, distance one mile and a quarter. The weather conditions were not at all favorable, but notwithstand- ing the recent rains,the track was remarkably dry owlng probably to the intensely dry weather of the several preceding days, which left the ground in sucha condition as to rapidly absorb the moisture. Many of the race track frequenters predicted that the record would be tiedif not broken, and in this, as it subsequently transpired, they were not ner, the witbin win- a Montana distance off. the far going second of the great Salvator’s time when that famous horse covered the distance in 2:06 4-5. The event was hotly contested by the three leaders, and they finished close to each other, Montana, the winner, speedin under the wire only a head in the lead o Major Domo, the second horse, while the latter was but a short head in front of Lamp- 1 unter. ‘he weather was anything but pleasant, the sky being overcast and threatening from early dawn, yet this did not deter the crowd and from early break, until the ap race, in in the morning without a inted time for the first in through the gates the ur — 4 They came from all one dense mass. points, in squads, ranging anywhere from 100 to 1,000, and continued coming even until within a few minutes of the time for starting the great event. Inside of the grounds there was one immense sea of faces. The enormous double-decked reachin tance ndstand, poleto a dis- from the last furlong : ower, was yond the judges ammed. Here thousands of the fair sex, —— in maguinceat toilets and decked in All the colors of the rainbow, were seated, apparently no less anxious than their male escorts to witness the great race, and they lent a charm on to the scene and presented a seen on the occasion of some picture similarevent.

Tie rains held off, however, much to the re- lief of the multitute. The horses went tothe post for the eat event at 4:20 o’clock this afternoon, here was one short break of about thirty yards, Raceland, Pessara and Poet Scout failing to join the leaders. They broke again as far as the timer’s nag, Locohatchie being the of- fender. The jockeys were very anxious des- pite Starter Rowe’s protests that he would give them all a fair chance. They made two more breaks. At the the fifth, they got flag, with Major Domo leading. In the first fur- lor g Russell ran up to the Major’s heels; the others were doing poorty. Locohatchie was absolutely last. Domo was a length in front of Kussell making the turn into the back- stretch. Both horses were under a pull. There was nochange in the relative positions ofthe leaders. Half-way down the home- stretch Montana and Locohatchie appeared to he hopelessly out of it. They were fully twenty lengths behind Major and Russell, About a from the beginning of turn Garrison drove Montana his field and getting an opening in the inner rail Marcus Daly’s colors shot up into the bunch. His backers shouted ‘‘There goes Montana—Montana, look athim.’’ An instant later, however, they were completely knocked out. Major Domo opened up a gap of five lengths on the upper turn and his backers shouted wildly. Major Domo was a wild horse, but Garrison broke from the bunch, followed by Lamplighter, and made play for the flying Major. Lambley glanced over his shoulder, became alarmed and began to urge the Major a trifle, Ex- perienced turf men then knew that the Major had shot his bolt. When well into the home stretch Montana with Lamp- lighter at his side was catching the fast tiring leader. A furlong from the finish Garrison’s friends began to shout encouraging words to the only snapper. They knew that Domo’s chances were cone but they were somewhat worried about Garrison and Lamplighter. A dozen strides from the finish and it was Mon- tana’s race. Garrison was driving while Lambley and Bergen were whipping. Mon- tana flashed by the judges winner ofthe great Suburban handicap of 1892, a head in front of Major Domo. The vast assemblage gave their lungs free play and shouted themselves hoarse in doing honor to Garrison and Mon- tana. Major Domo lasted long enough to snatch the place from Lamplighter by a head, Three lengths away came Poet Scout, fol- lowed in the order named dy His Highness, Pessara, Tournament, Raceland, Russell, Picknicker and Locohatchie. Lorillard's colt was never better than last. The time was 2:07 83-5. Mutuals paid $17.10 straight and 310. 50 for the place. Major Domo paid $18.45. The race was worth $25,000, of which the win- ner got $18,000, the second horse $5,000 and the third $2.

SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. d K WITTE An Octogenarian Who Resſided in St. Louis Nearly Sixty Years. Coroner Irwin received notice yesterday afternoon ofa death without medical at- tendance at 1229 Spruce street. The deceased proved to be Mr. G. H. Witte, an octogenarian who came to this country and located in St. Louis sixty years ago. The old gentleman was taken sick very suddenly yesterday and although Dr. Papin was summoned at once by telephone he did not arrive until after Mr. Witte was dead. His wife survives him with five of their seven children, as follows: Kate, the oldest, is 46 years of age and is married to Mr. Fred Reb- man of 1031 South Thirteenth street; John M., living on King’s highway and Forest Park boulevard ; Joseph, living on Sixteenth street and Clark avenue; Mary, the wife of Michael Callanan, residing at the old family bome- stead, as does Gerhard, the youngest son, who is 29 years old and partially paralyzed. Mrs. Witte, whois 70 years old and came to St. Louis when a little girl, says that she and her husband were born in adjoining villages near Hagen, Westphalia, Germany; that they were married here in st. Louis forty- seven years ago and moved directly after their marriage into the house in which Mr. Witte died yesterday and from which he is to be buried to-morrow afternoon, The children had already begun to make prepara- tions for the golden wedding of the old couple. The funeral services will be held at 1:30 this afternoon at St. Mary's Church on Third and Cedar streets and the remains will then be laid to rest in Calvary Cemetery. Dr. Papin sent word to the Coroner that Mr. Witte died, in his opinion, of old age, and that will be the verdict. Lowest- Priced House in America for fine GOLD AND SILVER WATCHES.

It was expected that the strikers might make some demonstration when the Crystal City was about to clear, but they only stood around in sullen silence and watched her clear off with a crew of non-union men, The police, however, think that this is but the calm that precedes the storm, and they have increased the num- ber of special officers along th Levee to fifteen. The steamer City Of St. Louts is expected to arrive here from New Orleans to-morrow and the City of Providence is advertised to clear thesameday. Both these steamers are Anchor Line boats and there may de trouble. The police allege that the engineers are inciting the ‘‘rousters’’ to violence. The roustabouts are be mores | to feel the effects of the strike and are becomin restless. The rain kept them in doors — of the time yest rday. Unless the strike is ended very soon the police say there will un- doubtedly be serious trouble. Very little freight is being delivered on the wharf boats. The strikers have held outand have received encouragement m ot unions, which gave the boats considerabie trouble in securing crews. The boats, how- ever, have all cleared on, or nearly on, the advertised time. Capt.

Weeping skies kept down the at- tendance and took all the snap out of the game. The visitors bombarded Getzein so vigorously in the first innings that the Brown legs lost confidence and thereafter played a listless game. Their stick work was of a order. With the bases full in the seventh and ninth innings Perry Werden failed to find the ball. Buckley was decidedly off in his playing, and the rest ofthe team seemed woefully lacking in gin- For the visitors, Sanders, their newly ac- quired college pitcher, easily carried off the honors. His workinthe field and with the stick was ofthe first order. He shows ad- mirable coolness and judgment at the bat. When he first stepped to the plate he waited until three balls and two strikes were called and then drove the next one into the left field seats fora home run. He afterwards hit safely twice and drove a liner into Brodle’s hands. McFarland, another acquisition, was not so brilliant. His stick work was weak and marred by nervousness, but he showed his ability for sharp fielding and good head work. The Browns started the run getting in the first inning. Crooks went to first on balls, Carruthers sacrificed, advancing him, and Werden. brought him in with a safe hit. Getzein raised hopes by fanning out big Tom Brown, but Sanders crushed the cranks by landing the dal in =the left field seats. Weaver kept up the good work with a three-bagger into right and Jen- nings brought him in with a corking single pastshort. Grimm’s hot grounder to Pink- ney resulted in a neat double play from short to frst. Neither side scored for the next two in- nings. After the Browns had gone out in the fourth Buckley and Werden presented the visitors with anotherrun. Jennings sent a grounder to short that bounded over Glasscock’s head. The former fell asleep about ten feet from first and Werden went woolgathering with him, failing to catch him on Buckley's clever throw. Keuhne’s safe hit sent him to third base; then with Dowse, @ weak batter, at the dat, Buckley threw down to second to catch Kuehne and Jennings trott across the plate. In the next inning Bro doubled to right, Weaver poppea up a sky-scraper in front of the plate. efore t ball came down Brown had crossed the plate.

W., at Springfield, on July 3, (and 5, Is the chief topic of conversation among the local wheelmen,and the attendance promises to be twice as large as auring previous years. A special meeting was held at the Cycling Club last night at which it was dicided to ac- ceptthe proposition of the Frisco Line to furnish transportation to the meet. Aspe- clal chair and baggage car will be placed at the cyclists’ disposal, which willremainat Springfield until the conclu- sion of the meet, thus insuring a luxurious trip, free from all the usual annoyances of the heavy 4tn of July travel. It is proposed that every participant aE himseif with a badge, which will furnished on board the train. The railroad rate for the round trip is $7.10. It isurgently necessary that ail in- tending participants aMx their names to the lists hanging at the various clubs and agen- cies, so thata guarantec can be given that fifty willattend. The crowd that will go down on the night of July 2 will embrace nearly the total membership of all the clubs and the unattached will also be well repre- sented. Springfleld has within the past two months entertained two other conventions which were very successful, and this augurs well for the success of the cyclers’ meet. The town is well built, healthy, beautifully situ- ated and has splendid parks,shady ves and the streets and roads are ine for eyelmg. The half-mile track at the Fair BR my is clay De Soto n. and He had a head wind with all the way and the road was very dusty, and in some places fresh macadam had n put on.

A PEN PICTURE OF JIM CORBETT’S TRAINING DAYS AT LOCH ARBOUR. ASBURY PARK, June 18.—It is really aston- ishing whataneflecta few days of fine air and charming surroudings will have on a man’s physical condition. The invigorating sea breeze at beautiful Loch Arbour has made anew man of Jim Corbett and this Is say- ing a good deal for the well-known pugilist was by no means an old man when he struck the place. Some of Corbett’s friends have been worrying over the stories to the effect that the people of Asbury Park Intend driv- ing him away. As a matter of fact there is no possibility of his being dispossessed. Inthe first place all the residents who have met him rather fancy he will make a good neighbor. Founder bradley himself has taken quite a liking to him, and most of the Asbury Parkites usually follow the founder. As long as the pompa- dour fighter keeps solid with Mr. Bradley he will be popular with everybody else who is worth being popular with in this partof the Mosquito State. One thing is certain, Jim Corbett, his trainer, Billy Delany, and Jim Daly and Denny Dillon, the assistant trainers, are at Mr. Bradley's cottage and there there they will remain untila few days before the fight, uniess Corbett con- cludes later on to take a little mountain air. Delaney is not an enthusiast, anda good many sporting men with whom he has spoken on the wey have admitted that his (Corbett’s) deas of training like Delaney’s differ somewhat from those of other athletes. He likes to see people and talk over the news of the day when his labors are finished. It is probable that he will have manya pleasant chat with Founder Bradley before his Southern trip. Corbett has already been invited to attend the lectures in the Auditorium, which are in- teresting as a rule. This will give him a chanceto improve mind and body at the same time, There is a broad lawn behind his cottage plenty large enough for an ordinary ball held and before the first afternoon was half over the boxer started a game of ‘‘one old cat,’’ which continued until the dinner bell rang. This was all the exercise he had Tuesday, ex- cepting atussle withthe oarson the pretty lake a stone’s throw from his tempo- rary home. At night he slept like a top and the following morning he ate ennugh for two ordinary men. A five-mile walk through picturesque lanes and along the beach gave him a splendid appetite for dinner. His work duringthe afternoon con- sisted of a short session of base ball and a row on the lake. and so he has been going along taking things easy and thinking occasionally of what he will'do if he is fortunate enough to win the big battle in the Crescent City. In about three weeks he will be ready for hard work and Delany is getting him in shape for it by easy stages. He will go to bed at 11 o’clock every night. Corbett usually takes eight hours sleep and he will get “| that much each night during training. n the way of amusement Corbett will not suffer. Besides the board walk, the music hall and parade of gally attired summer boarders, he will have a chance to enjoy the latest anec- dotes concocted by Harry and John Kernell, who aru daily visitors at his cottage. These fun-makers do not drive across the bridge in ordinary style either. Asarule they appear behind a well-trained team of donkeys in tandem. It will be some time before Jim puts on sweaters, three weeks atleast, and then he will only wear them during his walks and sprints. He has already put himself on training diet. No boxer ever had a greater fondness for sweets than Jim has. Usually he takes three and sometimes four lumps of sugar in his coffee andtea. His allowance has been cut down 75 per cent. No pastry will be set be- fore him for ten weeks, but he will have all the strawberries he cares for, as long as they are in the market. Delany believes in giving a man whatever he fancies, barring sweet tungs. so Corbett will not tare so badly as he might under another trainer. Chicken, steak, roast beef, mutton and lambchops and fresh fish of all kinds will be served to him at noon, and.he may have whatever he fancies for his morning and evening meals. Jim doesn't love beef tea, but in the morning and after his rub-down he will put away several ounces of this strength- ening fluid. Corbett was never fond of swimming, and he hasn’t been in the water except ina bathtub since his work be- gan. Later in the season he may be broken intosurf-bathing. He does not take one bit after his dog, *‘Eddie Foy.“ That interesting beast takesa plunge in the lake every time he can steal away from home. Between watching the animal and posing for the small army of amateur and professional photographers which swoops down on his castle every day, Corbett will have his leisure time well taken up. The Californian wants only one day's leave of absence before the fight. Dixon’s cleverness has always been admired by Corbett, and he is anxious to wit- ness the naht between the colored lad and his English rival, atthe Coney Island Athletic Club, one week from to-morrow. John L, Sullivan will also be there, and the presence of twosuch celebrities may help the box- office receipts considerably. SULLIVAN IS SEDATE. New Tonk, June 18.—John Lawrence Sulli- van has very little time to think of his com- ing match with James J. Corbett these days; between politics, horse-racing, his book and a new play the prince pug: list’s time is pretty woll taken up. He came over from Boston tter selection e 5 train Sullivan bet- that he should returnto Boston to-morrow and stay until Wednesday or Thursday next, BILLIARDS. New YorK, June 18.—Jake Schafer, the ex- champion billlardist, and his friend, Billy Caton of Chicago, sailed to-day for Paris. The two experts were accompanied to the steamer by many of their friends and admirers. Among them were George Slosson, Billy Sexton and Maurice Daly. Just before the steamer swung out of the dock 1 eannot tell match between Schafer said toa reporter: the exact date when the Ives and myself will take lace, but it will be during the wee of July 20. Caton and 1 will practice in some —— arranged for me by the Brunswick- alke Co., who are- managing the game.

WESTERN ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION, There will be u meeting of the Western Association of Amateur Athletes at the Lin- dell Hotel this morning.

A petition signed by a majority of the mem bers of Water Tower Methodist Church, re- questing the removal of the pastor, Rev. Dr. J. F. Corrington, has been forwarded to Bishop John P. Newman at Omaha, with the request that immediate action be taken or else the church would suf- ler a factional fight, the withdrawal of the Board of Stewards and probably another scandal. I regret very much that Rey. Corrington saw fit to bring charges against Mr. Lacey, one of the most influential mem- bers in the church,“ said Mr. F. M. Doan, a member of Water Tower church last night.. Mr. Corrington con- ceived the idea that Mr. Lacey was laying a plan to work him out of the pastorate of the church, and an estrangement sprang up be- tween the gentlemen. For three weeks the board tried to amicably’ settle this trouble, but failing in its purpose, an appeal was made to Klder O. M. Martin to visit the church and assist in bringing about peace and harmony. When we congregated for the purpose of adjusting such a settlement we were surprised and in- dtgnant to learn that Rev. Corrington had preferred charges Mr. Lacey and full account of which PostT-DISPATCH. I have no ill feeling toward Mr. Corringion, but Icansay with all can- dor that his congregation demands a change in the pastorate and since this last trouble the board is dissatisfied and if he does not withdraw a majority of the influential mem- bers will leave the church.“ **I have nothing further to say in regard to the case, said Rev. Corrington last nigut. „Mr. Lacey has been expelled as Superin- tendent of the Sunday-school, and he has taken an appeal, but I have no fear that the quarterly conference will not sustain the verdict as rendered by the churcn trial. His plea of guilty necessarily expels him from the church.’’ Mr. Lacey has no fear but what the confer- ence will reverse the decision. Said he: 1 pleaded guilty to the charges preferred in order to assume the burden of proof, that Is, I admitted the facts in general, but not with criminal intent.’’ dhe members of the church are divided and a bitter feeling is existing ‘between the two factions, which will probably never be healed over.

Mr. John Nickels of 2842 Morgan street called at the Four Courts about 8 o’clock last night with his son, a boy of 14 years, and turned him over to Capt. Young. He said that the boy was incorrigible and he wanted him sent to the House of Refuge. He had stolen $15 from him the day before and was always committing thefts or making trouble for the family in some way. The boy was locked up in the calaboose and will be taken before Mayor Noonan to-morrow. Tux Peerless Knabe pianos sold by J. Kieselhorst. 1000 Olive street. 4. Funeral of a Veteran. Gen.

NO ACTION TAKEN UPON THE LATE BIG TWELVE’S RECOMMENDATIONS. The Judge Says That the Heads of the Dif- ferent Departments Had Copies of the Post- Dispatch“ In Which the Report Was Printed In Full,and Nothing More Was Necessary. The last Grand-jury of the St. Louis Orim- inal Court expressed the hope that Judges Normile, Claiborne and Morris and the pros- ecuting attorneys and clerks of their courts would take such steps as to render impossi- dle a continuation or repetition of the shame- ful practices disclosed by the jury in their respective departments, and the jury alsore- quested Judge Normile, to whom they maco their report, or suggested to him, that he send Judges Claiborne and Morris and the clerks and prosecuting attorneys copies of the portions of the report applying respec- tively to their departments and call their at- tentiontothem. This portion of the Grand- jury’s report reads as follows: THE JURY’S RECOMMENEATION, In submitting this catalogue of gruesome things we have sought to be not disrespectiul to any officer on whom devolves any part of the enforcement of the criminal laws of the State or city. We have sought to tell facts ratherthan to draw inferences. Without being accountants we have been able to discover thattne accounts which should insure the correction of transactious wherein the city is finan- cially interested are wretchedly bad, and insure nothing. Without being lawyers, we have been able to discover that there are painful discrepancies be- tween the lawand the practice in what should be the city’s stronghold. Without being Pharisees, we feel impelled to make an appeal to your ticnor, to Judge Claiborne, to Judge Morris, Clover, to Mr. Dierkes, to Mr. Butler, to Mr. Thomas—to allof the heads of departments here—to take aggressive action toward waking another arraigninent as this impossi- bie.

When asked this moraing if he had com- plied with the request of the Grand-jury, Judge Normile said that he had not and that he didn’t think it was expected of him after the PoOsT-DISPATCH published the report in full. ‘‘Soon after the Grand-jury adjourned I directed Mr. Judge, the clerk in charge of the desk inthe court-room, to prepare the draft of a communication which was to be sent by me to the heads of the departments mentioned in the Grand-jury’s report, said Judge Normile, I not knowing at the time whether the report would be published in full ornot, and at the same time I arranged with Mr. Johnson, the court stenographer, to prepare full copies of that report, which were to be sent with my communfcation to the various department heads. I directed Mr. Johnson to lay aside his other business— with his regular But when I found that afternoon that the PosT-DISPATCH had published the report in full, and that It was correct in every particu- lar, Icountermanded the order in regard to the type- written coples. It would require a great deal of labor to prepare these coples and I now considered it unnecessary. It seems to me that the Grand- jury’s desire was not so much that I should send the heads of departments official copies orcoplesat all, as that they should all be furnished or receiv the report in some way, and that they looked to me to see that copies of the report reached them. I hada talk with Judge Clatborne and found that he had a Post-DISPATCH copy of the report and had read itand I told himthen that I was glad of it, as it saved me the trouble of sending him a copy. I made inquiries of the deputy clerss of my court and through them and others I learned that every person criticised in any way by the Grand-jury had received and read a copy of the report as published in the Post-DIsPpaTcH, It seemed to me that the object destred by the Grand-jury when they asked me to ‘refer to those in responsi. bility such parts or this report as relate to had been ac- report in your paper, and that is why I have taken no further action in the matter. My first intention was, continued the Judge aftera pause, ‘‘tosend copies ofthe report not only to the persons criticised by the Grand-jury, but also to the Municipal Assembly, Board of Health and the City Comptroller, Dnt 1 learned right away, or in a day or two, that the City Council had al- ready taken up the matter, that Gen. Steven. son, as Llearned from a member of the Grand- Jury, had received and read a copy of the re- members of the Board Health also nad copies of it, two of the members having themselves given me the information. The reason that I desirethe attention of the Board of Health to be called to the report was the fact that a considerable portion of it was devoted tothe city institutions under their supervision, and it was for this reason partly, also, that I wanted the Municipal As- sembly to take cognizance of the report.“ port and that the of A SUMMER DELUGE, The Town of Peoria, III., Flooded by a Waterspout. PeoRIA, III., June 18.—A waterspout burst over this city this afternoon and flooded everything. Cellars are fullof water and in some quarters ofthe city the floors of th houses are under water. The Union Depot was flooded, buggies were washed into the river, and a great deal of damage was done. On Main street the water from the bluffs came gown with such force that a horse was knocked down and drowned before assistance could be rendered, Terrific light- ning accompanied the storm and the stacks on two of the dis- tilieries were struck and _ splintered. In one of the distilleries some steers were killed by the lightning. All the bridges north ofthe city have been washed away and it is feared that many of the railroad briages are gone.

Dr. Rainsford Writes About His “Church . and Saloon” Plan. m WOULD HAVE THE BUSINESS IN THE HANDS OF CHRISTIANS. Balloons Should Sell Non-Intozxicating Drinks as Well as Liquors—They Should Be Handsome Places, Where Men May Take Their Wives—Drunk- ards and Minors Forbidden to Buy Drinks. Dr. W. 8. Rainsford of New York, who at- * deal of attention by advising that s 1 * and control the saloon business, has n for the SUNDAY PostT-DIsPaTCH the follow- ing elaboration of his views:! New York, June 18.—When I publicly proposed that the most solid members of our churches should consider the urgent need there is of making some . effort to lift at least a part of the liquor traffic out of the hands and beyond the low- ering influences of those who at present con- trol it, [knew full well that the suggestion would call down on me a fiood of fierce oppo- sition froma multitude of good people for whose judgment I ever shall have profound respect. Still more—I knew that I could not expect the support of any dut a small number ofthat, compara- tively speaking, small band who feel and know that ‘‘new occasions teach new duties.’ Still, alla man can dois to speak the thing he believes to be both timely end right; cast his handful of seed along the fur- rows, believing that if itis good, in time it must grow. And hence I would state as briefly as I can my views on the matter. There does not seem to be any likelihood of the departure of the American saloon, Indeed. the liquor traffic is more consolidated and better organized than it ever was before in this country, Any one who hopes or believes that through temperance reform, pro- hibition, or any other means at pres- ent used in fighting the liquor interest, the saloon will be abolished and the drinking habits of the people radically changed, indulges delusion, and his judg- ment is warped till what he wishes to be he makes himself believe will be. As it is at present the church people of the community, whether rightly or wrongly, have persuaded themselves that the saloon is a thing hope- lessly bad and quite impossible to reform, and that all who are engaged either as man- ufacturers or distributors of alcohol in any shape are enemies of all that is highest and best in the community. THE BUSINESS CONDEMNED. This position I believe to be unjust and un- tenable, but there can be no question what- everastothe working result of it on those engaged in this trame. Once let a man think that a large and intelligent proportion of nis fellow citizens look down upon him, and the evidences of this contempt must soon make themselves apparent in bis character and conduct. Withdraw from him all hope of re- ceiving the commendation of a large section of his fellow men, and he must become in time careless of their judgment or resentful of the position in which they place him, it in any measure he believes it to be unjust. Thus admitting that the drink trafic, as carried on in our saloons, is abominably bad, and generally in bad bands, there can be no doubt that the public condemnation at pres- ent attached to it inevitably makes it worse. uch must be evident to all. this public condemnation as univer- gal an as genuine as it pretends to be? Do all religious men really believe that it is wrong to dealin alcohol or to have any part in the drink trade? Most certainly they do not. But the great number who would be far indeed from confirming the judgment of the extremists on this question have not yet a voice. and so have not been reckoned thus fur. Factayare stubborn things, and facts are againstt extremists in this matter. It is not a sin to drink moderately. Constituted as our civilization is, the great majority of men will drink moderately to the end of time. It is nota sin, either, to pro- vide the stimulating drinks which these de- mand. wi THE MISTAKE. Here lies, it seems to me, the mistake of the past. Among the working classes the enor- mous proportion ofthose who patronize the saloons are not drunkards; onthe contrary, are temperately indulging a legitimate re- quirement for a legitimate luxury. But let the community brand witha brand of shame and disapprobation all those places where this host of reasonable folk are of necessity obliged to get their liquor, and society ignorantiy does the very thing that it seeks not to do. It takes a long stride in the direction of destroying the self- respect of the moderate and temperate man, whoisasfarremoved as could be from a drunkara. Isay it is beyond question that the result of this social frowning on all sa- loons, irrespective of their character or their method of conduct, is bad, very bad. As long as it continues, only a low class of men (with here and there an exception, of course) will gointo the business. The saloons are made bad, and in this way are kept bad. In this country this liquor question is not the question of yesterday. We have tried bition, and we know what the result has —bad, inevery way bad. Braveandtrue women have taken up the crusade, have knelt at saloon doors, and brought for the time being an overwhelming social influence to bear against the saloon. The result has not been permanent, nor can it be. But one thing we have not tried to do, and that is, improve and purify a great business, patron- ized by an enormously large proportion of our „ Which we cannot uproot and which —— to atay. How may we hope to im- prove it? DR. RAINSFORD’'S PLAN. First—We can induce morally responsible and upright persons to take bold of it, to sell liquor at reasonable prices, strictly to obey the law in its sale, not to sell to drunk ards or minors. If men took hold of the business who were content to make a small return for their money, this could be done; for, beyond question, the profits are very Next—The narrow, reeking, treating bar could be abolished, a large part of the pro- ceeds Of sale going tomake the saloon com- fortadle and roomy, furnished with tabies and newspapers, where people could sit at feisure, and not either drink per- 12 tly, or failing that, be shown the door. 1 best and most nutritious unter- moented drinks could de and should be sup at the same place and time. Many ‘@rink good milk could they ob- tai it, instead of beer, and would greatly gain 0 the change. Pure, sparkling drinks, as * as cocoa, coffee, tea, etc., if well pre- , as they now seldom are, and sold at *s profit, would be in demand by a great 25 In such a resort as this a man would ane ashamed to be found, and it would * at least a 1 to a higher us in the future, but many hundreds of thou- sands in the present are doomed by the doom of lack ot Space. It drives them to drink, to intemperate drinking. Cramped in their tenement houses, cramped in their saloons— these the only clubs they have, these the only clubs possible tothemat present—what are you going to do for them? I believe in my soul the church should cry aloud for room and space to grow, and she must let men grow their own way. It is idle to put up a stake and bind them with sticks and various withes and ties to it. We must trust mankind more. Many will say, apply this principle to the home; give them larger home room, better tenements. God knows some of us have advocated this, and shall continue to do so with all our might. But is it unreasonable to believe that we shall also advance the well-being of multitudes by do- ing something to remove this ban and curse from off the only form of city and social life which is open to them? I dare not believe it. OPEN ON SUNDAY. You may think a man would do better by not going to a saloon at all or not drinking at all. In many cases, of course, he would. But that is not the question. Have you got any religious or moral patent medicine by which we shall absolutely stop his drinking and suddenly turn away the feet of hundreds of. thousands from the well beaten path to the saloon? None but a fanatic or a fool will dare to say so. Then, I say, since the sa- loon is not in itself of necessity an evil thing, take hold of it, and make it as good a thing as it can be made. Remove temptation from it as much as you can. Take down the lewd picture and put up the artistic, substi- tute the table for the bar; add the bowling alley and the billard board. Let there be flowers there. Onaminiature scale, some such place as the roof garden, Madison Square. Rigorously exclude the drunkard, make room for the respectable wife, and you have done something. And all this can be done, I believe, without loss, at least, of money. There might not be a fortune in it,but Ido not think there would be financial ruin. I do not mean for a mo- ment that there should be the slightest sug- gestion of religious influence about itany- where. The Whole movement in my judg- ment would simply be an effort to purify the atmosphere that isat present unnecessarily poisonous, I may say in conclusion, that I do not think there is any objection on the score of morals to the opening of the saloon for a certain number of hours on Sunday. Better far open for certain definite hours, and after those hours keep the blinds up, sothat all passers by can see the law is being kept, than this miserable, sneaking business going on all the Gay long, the creeping of men and women and children in and out by a back door. May lexpressa hope that those who de- lieve these suggestions of mine have nothing whatever inthem but evil will believe at least thatI only make them under a strong sense of duty both to Godand man? W. S. RAINSFORD, A QUEER ROBBER A Mexican Highwayman Trains se Hound to Help Him. Crrr or MExiIco, Mexico, June 18.—A re- markable criminal has just been captured here and was sentenced to be shot for his heartless outrages and robberies. He had been carrying on his operations for overa year. The people living within a radius of twenty miles of this city have been ip a state of semi-panic over the strange attacks which have been made upon travelers who are out after nightfall. There appeared to be some demon who took delfght in mangling belated people and robbing them. Several deaths occurred andin every instance the party at- tacked was suddenly grasped by the throat by some apparently powerful animal, which was so strong-jawed that it shut off the air at the first grasp and caused the victim to faint and in some instances the strangulation and wounds proved fatal. When consciousness returned, in every instance the victim, found himself lying with a bleeding throat and his pockets rified of all their contents. One man who had occasion to be out after dark says that it appeared to be some lon animal, which came leaping upon him, and he bad barely timeto notice this ere he was borne to the ground and held with a grasp of the awful jaws. Manuel Penez,a wealthy ranch owner who lives in the eastern part of the city where several of the outrages have been committed, made himself an armor to protect his throat from the attack of what- ever it was that caught the people. Takingthe heavy leather stirrup piece from his saddle he cut a collar and fitted it to his neck in sucha manner that it covered his whole throat. Then, witha pistol in each hand, he rode through the dark roads of that part of the city in which he resides, He was passing a deserted jacal, or house, when he saw an animal leaping towards him. He had just time to notice the animal when it leaped for his throat and bore him from his horse to the ground. Hisarmor served well, however, and the animal could not get a grip on his throat. Penez ha his revolver ready and pressing it against the side of the assailant, fired a shot which rolled it over. Then, just as he was rising. he w@s again attacked, but this time dy a man who struck him with a club. The blow was not severe enough to do much harm, and in the hand-to-hand conflict which followed Penez got the better of his adversary and stunned him. He bound the man and took him to police headquarters. An investigation showed that the animal was a great Danish nound, which had been trained to put down the people by rasping their throat in his monstrous Jaws, fis master sent him after the victims, and when they were rendered unconscious he would rob them with impunity and then re- turn to his home without fear of detection. The prisoner gave his name as Sisto Leberto. He mourned the loss of the dog greatly and does not seem to care what becomes of him since the animal is dead. An investigation revealed the fact that Leberto lived in the outskirts of the city andwas evidently a tumala vender. In his cabin were found the fruits of several recent robberies and evi- dence sufficient to show that he made robbery his regular nightly occupation. A LOST RIVER, Remarkable Discovery by Claim Hunters in the Indian Territory. Paris, Tex., June 18.—A party who has re- turned from the Cheyenne and Arapahoe country report a remarkable natural curios!- ty that has been discovered in the mountains in the extreme western part of the Territory. In the recesses of a wild and almost inaccess- ible range of mountains is @ valley of con- siderable magnitude, in which there isa lake which is fed by numerous streams that flow into it from the moun- tains around it. It has but one outlet which is.a stream of considerable size. This stieam flows toward a large moun, tain on the east. This discovery was made in a country which has until recently been ex- plored but little, but in their search for claims a party entered the valley containing the lake. The place interested them and they began to inspect it closely. They followed stream flowing from the the mountain where pe bd entering a bole underground. It did not decrease grad- ually as ifseeping into the ground, but flowed into the bole in a strong, bold stream. bey searched long and carefully to find where the stream again came to the surface, but could find no further trace of it, believed that the stream flowe clear un the mountains and empties into the Cana- dian River at a point many miles east of where it disa rs, as at that Canadian River suddenly swells to Deru ite tions a — cause.

Mexico, June 18.—The branch line of the Mexican International Railroad from Pedricena to the Velardena mines in the State of Durango will be completed by the middle of next month. Its length will be about twelve miles. The mines belong to the Yelardena Mining Co., of which James F. Mathews, formerly of Volorado, is president and general manager. Four hundred thou- sand dollars have already been expended in developing the mines, They are now, to- gether with those in the San Lorenza range, producing 100 tons of ore per day and employ 42% men. Since the middle of April last the company has shipped 162 # car-loads of twenty-five tons each to smelt- ers in Denver, Oolo., and Om- aba, Neb. Some of the mines, belonging to the Velardena group, produce carbonate of lead and others dry silicious ores. In the Viverililas mine a strike has recently been made ata depth of 800 feet, assays of ore taken therefrom showing 575 ounces of silver to the ton, the width of the pay streak bein about eight inches. The Santa Maria an Pertenencias have aone and three quarter mile extension of a carbonate vein. These mines bave a most promising appearance and bid fair to rank among the most impor- tant in Mexico. Probably the most famous mines in Mexico are the Malacate group, situated in the Dis- trict of Sultepec. These mines were once worked by the Spaniardsand yielded metal in such abundance that the King of Spain conferred upon them the name of **Banco de Plata’’ (Silver Bank). About three years ago their owner, Juan Boy, entered into a contract for the sale of the minesto Jesse R. Grantat the price of $300,000 inturn contracted to. sell „Credit Foncier Co.“ a much greater price than $300,000, but that company failed to carry out its agreement by reason of heavy losses in copper specula- tions. Mr. Boy thereupon endeavored to cancel the agreement between him and Mr. Grant on the ground thatthe latter had not completed the purchase within the stipulated time and a law suit is now pending to deter- mine the rights of the rties. Pablo de Royal, who has recently reported upon mines, gives your correspond - ent the following gee ye concerning them: The principal mines are the San Pas- cual, Concepcion, Capulin, Providencia and Veta Negra. The average results of 250 as- says showed $24.25 gold tothe ton, and the average of 298 — gave $52.46 sliver to the ton. Twenty-elzht assays showed on an average 26.75 per centlead. The mines when put in gcod working condition will easily yield 200 tons of ore per day. The Sangre de Cristo Mine ts situated in the Guazgarapas district, State of Chihuahua, 250 miles west of the City. of Chihuahua, in the heartof the Sierra Madre Mountains. It is an old Spanish mine that was worked in the days of the Caballeros. Thousands of feet of old galleriesand drifts exist, testify- ing in dehalf of the engineering skill of the foneecr miners of Mexico. Negotiations ave just been consummated, whereby the Hon. Wed« Hampton of South Carolina, be- came one of the owners of this mine.

Interesting Display of American Arms and Uniformsto Be Made. CuicaGco, June 18.—On the inland water- ways, which tr&verse the World's Fair grounds from onéend to another, there will be plying three kinds of boats for public use. These will be the omnibus, express and cab boats or launches. The omnibus boats will make regulartrips around the waterways, stopping at each building. The express boats will make round trips without stop- ping, while the cab boats, with carrying capacity of four persons, may be halled at any point and engaged for thetripor by the hour, as is a hansom cab. Baroness Burdett-Coutts, the celebrated philanthropist, who is at the head of the hilanthbropic section of the English fomen’s Department in the World's Fair, according to the London press, will cross the Atlantic to attend the Fair, and vill read an original paper on the subject of women's in- stitutions conducted by women. Mrs. French-&heldon, the intrepid African traveler, has applied for space for exhibiting at the World's Fair the fine collection of curios and trophies she has gathered.

An Angry Mexican Challenges an Editor —Mexican Notes. CITY OF MEXICO, June 18.—The terrible drougth that nas afflicted the northern and western sections of Mexico has been partial- ly broken, heavy showers of rain having fallen within the past few weeks throughout the States of Coahuila, Chihuahua. Durango and Sonora. These are the first rains in near- ly four years und 1 —— — is marked activity among the hacendados, who are now planting their crops and who believe that the drouth is permanentiy broken. The acreage, how- ever, will be very small, owing to the fact that poverty from the loss of the crops of the past seasons has been sorely felt by many of the farmers who with good crops for three or four years to come, will hardly more than regain the money lost by them period of the drouth. and barley crops in the Lerma Valley is most excellent and is nearly ready for harvesting. Corn in the same valley is growing nicely and gives promise of rich returns. The cotton orop in the celebrated Lagura country will fall hundreds of bales short, owingto the lack of rain. Many of the planters and laborers in the fields of that locality went early in the season to the northern regions of the State of Coahuila and there laid out numerous cotton plantations, and it is said that the yield from the increased ucreage in these regions will make up the deficit for the short crop in Laguna. Ihe corn, wheat and barley crops in the Valley of Mexico give the assurance that the yield will be equal to that previous seasons. The bar- ley and wheat crops in the vicin- ity of Saltillo have been remarkably good and their harvesting is finished. Reports from the Bajio country along the line of the Central Railroad are of a discouraging nat- ure. The drought in that section still con- tinues, andcrops of wheat and barley have only been raised where irrigation has been possible. Don Ramon Murgula, editor of Universal, the leading Spanish newspaper of this eity, recently took offense at a paragraph he saw in the Periodico OAcial, a newspaper published in Oaxaca. He accordingly sent a * to Don Manuel Briost Candiano, the editor of the paper, asking im to come half way with two seconds to arrange for a duel, to take place in some des- ignated point in the State of Pueblo. Mr. Murguia claims thut he has been unable to get any definite reply from Mr. Brioso, whom he brands as a coward. A duel between Maj. Augustin Reuteria and Lieut.-Col, Eduarda Mendizabal ofthe First Rurales has been arranged to take place on June 23. The delay is caused by the absence of Col. Mendizaval from the city. The two officers bad a disagreement over a — lady to whom they were both paying devoted attention and the challenge was issued by Maj. Reuteria. Zuniga of Miranda, a prominent scientist of this city who was arrested on the charge of being connected with the demonstration made here on May 16 and 17 against the re- election of President Diaz, is still in jail awaiting trial. Ue will, without any doubt, be found guilty and shot. Mr. L. Torris Rivas, who for some time past has been employed in the passenger de- partment of the Mexican National Railroad, has been appointed as One of the secretaries of the Mexican Legation in London, England. In Tebasco the crop of chocolate beans is very poor. The price of the cocoa in this * exciusive of toll-gate duties is now 65 to cents a pound, and itis expected that the price pill soon reach 75 cents.

He was a general in the army, having partici- pated in the warof the reform and also in that of the French invasion. BURDENED WITH TAXES. Quebeo Province $1,000,000 Short in Its Annual Income, MONTREAL, June 18.—The Quebec province isnow reapingthe bitter result of twenty years of Tory Government, which saddled it with a debt of $25,000,000, and of five years of Mercier’s extravagant rule, which increased that debt by $7,000,000. At present the rev- enue leaves an annual deficit of over $1,000,- 000.

The Minister of Ireland Revenue, Mr. Costigan, warmly sup- ported the motion. Sir John himself has often declared himself an advocate of Home Rule for Ireland. But he was afraid to speak either for or against the resolution. He was still more afraid of the consequences of a di- vision upon the question. He said nothing until the day after the debate was adjourned. Then he moved that, in order to bring the session to an early close, the government should be allowed to have every Monday for its own business after tne mem- bers’ question list had been gone through. This was passed. As Monday has so far been the special day for private members’ busi- ness the home rule westion cannot be brought up any morethis session. It was an effective means for dodging the issue, but the trickiness of it was too apparent.

ST. CECELIA’S SEMINARY, Gov. Francis Does the Honors at the Com- mencement. HOLpEeN, Mo., June 18.—The principal events of the week were the closing exercises ofthe St. Cecelia’s Seminary. Gov. D.

MONTREAL, June 18.—Three events which have occurred within the past few days have combined to bring ex-Premier Mercier once more into prominence in Canada. The first was his commitment to stand his trial at the next term of the Queen's bench in Quebec City for conspiracy to defraud the Crown out of certain sums of money, The “case grew out of the Langlat's stationery contra ct, particulars of which I have already given in this correspondence. Next came the au- thentic announcement that the Count had decided toabandon his whole estate for the benefit of his creditors, several of whom were pressing him fora settlement of their claims. From what has been learned from authoritative sources so far, it seems tnat the Habilities are in the e in of $70,- 000, and that the ets, including his house in Montreai® will reach a figure not far short of that amount. The decision to abandon his whole property was arrived at chiefly because of the suits which some of the local banks had brought to re- cover the amounts of promissory notes held by them, many of which were indorsed by Mr. Mercier for — purposes. Another motive was to silence those who are repeat edly — — the late Premier of Que- bec Province had used his official position for the purpose of benefiting himself personally. None of his property is in his wife’s name; he gives up everything, even his household, including his farm and agricultural imple- ments at Tourouvre. In future he will have to earn his livelihood by the practice of his profession as a lawyer. Like most other statesmen who have fallen from power he bas Myed to experience the bitterness of ingratſtude. and some of those who owe everything to his generosity are amongst the hardest and most inexorable of his creditors. Scarcely had the surprise occasioned by the publication of this intelligence abated before the announcement was made that Mr. Mer- cler, who had not attended tho Legislature since the general election which resulted in his downfall, and who had intimated that he would never more be seen within its walls, had suddenly resolved totake his seat. The news caused quitea sensation. The reason that he has not hitherto occupied his seat as member for Bonaventure is that he feared that the Tory majority would pass a resolu- tion expelling him from the House. His ob- ject in taking his seat—which he must soon vacate, owingto his abandonment of his es- tate—is to deliver a speech in explanation or ustification of the conduct which has rought him to his present humiliating posi- tion. Up to the present the Ottawa Government has pretended to take no notice of the revela- tions regarding the distribution of the ‘*reptile fund,’’ which have been published inthe Toronto Globe. The subsidized minis- terial organs have also maintained studied silence with respect to thém. Now, how- ever, the Government is about to be forced to admit that its members have read these roofs of the political perfidy of Sir Adolphe aron and Sir Hector Langevin, and also to make a statement of some sort in reference to the subject. Sir Richard Cartwright has given notice that he will ask the Government thirty-one questions, each containing the words of the letters and receipts, facsimiles of which have been published by the Globe. The proofs of the guilt of the two precious knights will thus be put on record in the archives of par- liament. The Government will be asked whether it is aware that the facsimiles of these documents have been printed by the paperin question. Sir Richard will also ask whether the Government has yet called the attention cf the Governor-General! to these — page and whether, if so, 1 ency has asked Sir Adolphe Caron and the other persons interested, for an n and also whether the Government intends to refer the documents to a committee for inves- tigation.

Ex-President Cleveland is the leader in the presidential contest and the impression is gaining ground that he will receive the mecessary two-thirds vote in the National Convention. He has many instructed dele- gations and States that have refrained from specific instructions indorsed him in the dele- gate conventions. „ He is now. years old, having been born in and as tteacher. William had recently duated Hamilton College. and under is tuition Grover devoted all his letsure time to studying Latin and English literature. At the end of a year’s engagement he returned to his mother’s house, where between the times of seeking more lucrative employment he still continued his studies. He searched for work in Syracuse and Utica, Dut was unsuccessful, and finally he made up his mind to go West. On his way he stopped in Buffalo to visit his uncle, a stock-breeder named Lewis Allen. Mr. Allen did not approve of the Western project. He persuaded his nephewto remain in Buffalo, giving him a piece of work to do in the prep- aration ofa k on American short-horn cattle, for which he was paid $50. Mr. Allen then procured for him a place in a lawyer’s office as office boy. The office was that or Rogers, Bowen & Rogers. Heatonce set to work with the dogged rseverance and un- fingging industry which has characterized his whole career to master the rudiments of the law and to make himself useful. Although living with his uncle two mile out of town, he was always the first to ive in the morning and the last to go at night. His industry was appreciated, and in a few months he was given a salary of $4 aweek this was increased from time to time, and shortly after his re to the Dar in May, 1859, he was made anaging clerk at 5600 a year. In 1861 this had risen to $1,000a year, and then at the age of 25, he left the office to become Assistant District Attorney of Erie County. This position. like every other public office he has ever held, came tohim without any solicitation on his part. He was reluctant to accept it because the salary was only $600 a ear. n 1870 the nomination for Sheriff of Erie County was tendered him, and after a consul- — — — WIZ j ‘ PPE Red | » te,’ ribs 2 ** . 7, | * 1 \s 5 ‘ _ SENATOR ARTHUR P. 1 * Ap — 7 „ i big 7 — m. 90 | , 8 GORMAN. “Maryland. f— of ante-bellum statesmen was Stephen A. Douglas, the little giant of Illinois. Just what particular event ‘attracted Senator Douglas’ attention to young Gorman, or whether, indeed, itwas anything else than the boy’s bright face and wide-awake, alert manner is not recorded. But the little giant was attracted to him and not only got him transferred from the House to the Senate, but became his patron andinstructor. Gorman went finally to live in the Douglas family and became the Senator’s private secretary. Then he was made the Assistant Postmaster of the Senate and there remained until the crash of war came. It has been said that Gorman was a Secessionist. This is dis- tinctly not true. He consulted one of the Secessionist Senators and was advised to go with his State. His father, Peter Gorman, wasa Union man, and when the war broke out went down to Richmond and got locked up for his sentiments. He went there upon the general principle that because men had decided to secede from the Union was no reason why they should secede from paying their debts, and as a good many of the seceding Southern statesmen owed him money on various contracts he went on to Richmond, the then Confederate capital, to collect it before they got too far out of the Union to make collection possible. He was not longin jail, however, and returned home to Maryland, remaining a good Union man to the end. Soon after this when Jubal Early made his descent on Washington and got so close that the booming of his cannon filled the streets with uproar, young Gorman was chosen captain of a company of young men employed about the Capitol bullding who or ganized to resist the invader. As soon as Gorman got back home he was appointed Collector of Internal Revenue for the Fifth Maryland District, and from that time on this State. Heisé6 years old, but does not look so. He began his career asa lawyer. He was a brave soldier, fought with Gen. Logan and remained his fast friend until that hero’s death. For the benefit of those who put tarif reform above everything else in politics and statesmanship it may be said that Mr. Morrison took up the reform before ever Grover Cleveland was hegrd of as a student of political economy. Col. Morrison has been a conspicuous Dem- ocratic leader ever since the war closed. We was repeatedly elected to Congress from the district directly across the river, and came very near beating Logan for the United States Senate in the memorable contest of 1886. Col. Morrison, at the close of his congressional service, was appointed onthe Interstate Commerce Com- mission by Oleveland. He is often referred to as Horizontal Bill,“ by reason of the fact that he presented a measure in Congress for a horizontal reduction of the impost duties, 8 — SENATOR D. B. HILL. Another New Yorker Who Seeks the Place and Expscts to Get It. United States Senator David B. Hill will be considerable of a factor in the Democratic National Convention whether or not he eaptures the nomination. that Mr. Hillcame into possession of an in- terest in the Elmira Gazette, of which paper he afterward secured the complete control. Atthistime he also joined with the Demo- cratic members of the Legislature in to withdraw the consent of the State of New York to the adoption of the fifteenth amend- ment. On the downfall of Tweed Mr. Ain lost little time in cultivating the friendship of Tweed’s mortal —— Samuel J. Tilden, from whom he received very material as- sistance in his political struggles in Chemung County through a term of years. In 1881, aftera severe struggle, Mr. Hill se- cured the nomination for Alderman from the Third Ward of the city of Elmira. This ward has a great many black voters in it and it was in this ward that Mr. Hill score many of his early triamphs in so-called practical politics.’’ Tradition says he was successful in inducing the colored voters to vote against their party and their convic- tions. Mr. Hill was a practical politician. There is no question about that. He was among the first at the polls in the morning and among the last to leave them at night, and in the assiduousness with which he looked after the party caucuses’ and party conventions he set an example worthy the Imitation of all good citizens, He was elected Alderman. The following spring he was nominated by the Democratic party and chosen Mayor of the city of Elmira, a city which is almost always Democratic, Then came the memorable campaign of 1882, the Mayor’s campaign, as it was called, It was said thatthe nomination for the Gov- re? was almost within his grasp, but Hill preferred torisk nothing. He let the Governorship go to Cleveland and took the second place himself. This is perhaps the only really great blunderheever made. Had he dared a little more he could have got the nomination for Governor, and asthe event roved, victory at the polls would have fol- owed. The 200,000 majority would have been his, not Oleveland’s. Asa presiding officer, Hill was a cess. He knew parliamentary law thor- oughly and made few mistakes. He it was who taught Speaker Thomas B. Reed how to count a quorum, but did not otherwise distinguish himself. In 1885, Jan. 1, he be- came Governor on the resignation of Grover Cleveland. He was elected Governor in the fall of 1885, re-elected in 1888, and served out the full term of the governorship to Which he was elected and which expired Dec. 31, 1891. In the spring of 1891 he was elected a United States Senator for the term beginning De- cember, 1891, but did not qualify till Jan. 7 1893. He held the governorship till the end of his term, in order to perfect his arrange- ments and prevent Lieut.-Gov. Jones doing anything which might tend to lessen his in- fluence over the Democratic machine. On his accession to the Governorship a new development of character began, The secrets of his success are that he seems never to quit learning, and his unwavering adher- ence to his one object in life. During his seven years’ incumbency he made many ene- mies, but he also made many friends. It is significant that the State officers are, without exception, Hill's friends. What does this mean? The filppant charge is made that they and suc- are mere henchmen without character or in- — In 1837 he became a clock peddler and trav- eled in this capacity over Madison, Pike.

In the morning Palmer ingtired the name of his bedfeliow. It was Stephen A. Douglas, and his companion was John T. Stuart. They were then canvassing their district as oppos- ing candidates for congress. Douglas made friends with Palmer, and the acquaintance thus made and the brilliant ex- ample before him changed the current of Palmer’s life and gave him fresh courage and determination to become a lawyer. In the spring of 1839, after his school closed, Palmer returned to Alton and then went to St. Louis. His older brother, Elihu, was then a Baptist preacher stationed at Carlin- ville, Macoupin County. Palmer walked from St. Louis to Carlinville, where he ar- rived March 29, 18389. He entered the law office of John S.

PART I. The very structure of the terrestrial globe. its Gattening at the poles, the arrangement of its geological formations, the character of its lower primitive strata, its volcanoes, which still smoke and vomit forth burning lava, its earthquakes, the regular rise in temperature as a descent is made towards its center, are all facts that unite in proving the earth to have been uninhabited and un- inhabitable in primitive times, andin show- ing that it was at frst inthe condition ofa hot, luminous and incandescent sun. On the other hand, ifthe annual revolution of our planet around the sun is examined, as well as the orbits of the other planets, it is ‘geen that they all revolve nearly in the plane of the solar equator and all in the same direction, which is also the direction in which the sun itself rotates. (Certain small planets deviate somewhat from this general plane, but their number in a single zone and their very insignificance show them to have undergone some special perturbation.) We cannot -help feeling that the origin of worlds is connected in some way or other with the sun, around whichthey gravitate like chil- dren indissolubly attached to the father. During the last century Buffon, Kant and Laplace were impressed with this thought, and it still strikes us to-day with the same force, despite certain difficulties in detail yet unexplained. The most probable hypothesis, the most scientific theory, is that which pre- sents the sun as a condensed nebula, and as having existed since the unknown epoch when this nebula more than filled the space occupied by the present solar system, an immense slowly revolving gaseous lens, whose exterior circumference reached the zone marked by the orbit of Neptune, or even farther, for Neptune does not form the real limit ot the system. But perhaps the dis- tance between the planets has gradually in- creased. Let usimagine an immense gaseous mass placedin space. Attraction is an inherent force of every atom of matter. The densest portion of this mass gradually attracts all the surrounding parts, and in the slow fall ofthe most distant molecules toward this most attractive regiona general movement is produced, imperfectly directed toward the center, which soon draws the entire mass into a rotary motion. The simplest form, in virtue also of this law of attraction, is the sphere; this is the form which a drop of water or a drop of mercury takes when free to move, and this is the form first assumed by the revolving gaseous mass. Mechanical laws prove that the rotary mo- tion of the nebula increases in proportion as the gaseous mass condenses and diminishes in volume. In consequence of the more rapid movement the poles become fiattened and, little by little, the mass assumes the form of an enormous lens ofgas. It is possible that it might finally rotate gas fast enough to de- velop upon its exterior circumference a cen- trifugal force superior to the general attrac- tion of the mass, as when a sling is rapidly revolved. The inevitable consequence is a disturbance of equll- ibrium resulting in the separation of anexternalring. This gaseous ring con- tinues to revolve in the same time and at the same rate of speed; but its nebulous progenl- tor will never again de attached to it, and will continue to undergo a progressive con- Gensation and acceleration of motion. The same thing occurs as often as the speed of rotation, or the centrifugal force, exceeds tho force of attraction. Also, it is quite pos- sible that secondary centers of condensation may be formed even in the interior of the ne- bula. The telescope shows us nebule in the dis- tant heavens whose forms correspond to these transformations,and we here represent three of them. The first is found in the con- stellation of the hunting dogs and gives an example ofa central condensation, Degin- ning with a solar focus at the center of a spherical or lens-shaped nebula; the second is found in Aquarius and presents a sphere Nebula—a, First Condensation. 6.

In the future we shall see others like it and no less re- markable. Spectrum analysis proves that these nebule, instead of being formed of stars packed together, are in reality com- posed of gases in which nitrogen and hydro- gen predominate. In our own system the rings of Saturn are still in existence, The successive formation of the planets, their situation in relation tothe solar equa- tor and their revolutions around one center, are explained by the theory we are pro- pounding. Neptune, the most distant planet known, must have been detached from the nebula atatime when it extended outwards from the center a billion leagues, and moved so slowly that 165 years were required to complete ond rotation. The orig- inalring could not retain the annular form unless it were perfectly homogeneous and reguiar; but sucha condition is impossible, and the- ring itself would very soon be con- densed into a sphere. Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, an army of little planets known as the Asteroids,and Mars, were thus success- wol Getached, or formed in the interior of this same nebula. Finally the earth was pro- earth, Venus and Mercury, dense thanthe superior planets, Neptune,- Uranus, Satdrne and Jupiter. Furthermore, the game materials which compose the earth, and which also exist ina gaseous state in the sun, are found in the chemical composition of the different worlds, the comets, shooting stars and meteorites. Thus the earth was formed by the slow con- densation of a gaseous ring detached from the sun, which still continued to con- tract and condense in order that Venus and Mercury might afterwards be produced. From that time the terrestial nebula had an independent existence, and from it was slowly evolved an immense gaseous globe rotating on its own axis. This revolving globe gradually became denser and was heated by the infinitesimal and steady impact ofthe materials composing it, so that the nascent earth shown with a feeble light in the midst of the sombre night of space. From the gaseous state it became liquid, and then solid, and it doubtless still contin- ues to cool and contract.

We see them shining at first witha feeble glimmer, then becoming resplendent like the sun, then cooling, becoming covered with spots and with a solid crust, undergoing terrible con- fusions and cataclysms as the crust frequent- ly breaks away and falls into the furnace be- neath, marked with numbDerless scars, slowly hardening as they cool, and henceforth receiving external heat and light from the sun; wesee them peopled with living denmgs and becoming the seat of toiling human races, who in their turn transform the sur- face, and after having served as a habitation for higher life and thought, we see them slowly losing their fertility, insensibly wearing out like living beings, becoming old and decrepit, and finally dying and henceforth rolling like moving tombs through the silent deserts of eternal night. Such is the perpetual evolution that all things undergo, the secular metamorphosis of worlds and living beings! How many times has the face of the earth been renewed since the distant epoch of its burning genesis on the equatorial frontiers of the solar nebula? How many centuries has it ‘been revolving around the sun? How many centuries has the sun itself been shining? On the hypothesis that nebulous matter was extremely tenuous at the beginning, the quantity of heat has been calculated which would be engendered by the fall of all these molecules towards the center, in the condensation to which the formation of the solar system is due. Sup- posing the specific heat of the condensing mass to have been that of water, the heat of condensation would have sufficed to raise the temperature 28,000,000 deg. centigrade (Helmholtz and Tyndal). K has long been Known that heat is but a form of motion; it is an infinitesimal vibratory movement of atoms. To-day all motion can be changed into heat and heati nto motion. The move ment caused by condensation has been enough, and more than enough, to produce the present temperature of the sun, and the original temperature of all the planets. If this brilliant center of our planetary system continues to condense, as it probably will, a condensation which would shorten its diameter by 1-2000 part of its present length would engender a quantity of heat sufficient to make up for that lost by emission during 2,000 years. At the present rate of emission the solar head produced by the past condensation of its mass will last 20,000,000 years longer. The length of time necessary for the condensation which the primitive nebula must bave undergone, in order that our planetary system might be constituted, entirely defies our imagination; there would be no exaggeration in counting it by billions of ages. The experiments of Bis- chof upon basalt seem to prove that our globe required 350,000,000 years to pass from a liquid to a solid state, and to cool from 2,000 deg. to20deg. Thesun must have existed many million ages before! What is all human history compared with such periods? Itis but a ripple on the ocean. CAMILLE FLAMMARION.

The question as to whether there shall be sleeping-rooms in the new Mercantile Club building is exciting a deal of interest in club circles at present. The matter will be decided by vote Tuesday morning. The question has been discussed go often since the erection of the new club building was be- gun that it has at last been decided to let a majority settle it. Those infavor of the plan arguethat if there are sleeping apartments in the new 2 members entertaining friends from other cities will und it much more agreeable toinvite them to apartments in the club than to quarter them for a few days in some hotel. They say that these ends will find themselves surrounded by much more sociability than they would were they installed in a public house. Often they say, a member is so situated that it is im possible for him to entertain 4a visiting friend at hisown home. He cannot enter- tain him at a hotel while, 3 there sleep- ing rooms, the club would be just the place. Members do not always deem it fit to invite parties with letters of introduc- tion to their homes. en such is the case they are taken to some hotel.

THE GERMAN EMPEROR A DEVOTED LOVER OF THE CHASE. Special Correspondence SUNDAY PoOsT-DISPATCH, BERLIN, June 5&.—The most enthusiastic hunter in Germany is perhaps Emperor WI - iam II. He is an excellent marksman and is known on one occasion to have placed three succes- sive balls with a revolver in the bull’s-eye of a small target at fifteen paces distant. Already as a boy he took a delight in break- ing in wild colts, and after continuous prac- tice he has developed intoa rider whom few can surpass in elegance and firmness of seat. No fence is too high, no Gitch too wide for him to venture. He is an honorary member of many rid- ing societies and hunting clubs and the patron of the Military Riding school at Hano- ver. Hs has also made it a rule for cavalry officers to run a certain amount of steeple chases every year, nor does he himself ever fail to appear at the great annual fox hunt, which takes place on St. Hubert’s dayin the Grunewald, near Potsdam, and in which sev- eral hundred of the foremost sportsmen take part. The Emperor never feels so well as when on days ot leisure he can forget the cares of his high position and, donning top boots with silver spurs, can mount a white horse (his favorite color in horses), or, shouldering a gun, go deer stalking all by himself in the shadowy, fragrant depths of a forest. He has constructed hunting grounds of his own which cover several hundred thousand acres and are provided with all species of game, Witha perfect knowledge of bunting in all its details—by the by, he is a warm ad- mirer of Melville White’s ‘‘Market Har- borough,’’ one ofthe best books written on hunting—he conducts deer stalking and battues on a large scale and whoever has be- come acquainted with the Emperoras hunts- man knows that he is no dilettantein the art. All over Germany old castles and villas have been arranged for hunting seats and hunting boxes, furnished in the simplest manner. The wainscotting of the rooms and most ofthe furnituse is carried out in the fragrant wood of the pinus cebra and rich trophies of the chase are everywhere used to decorate the walls. The Emperor enjoys private hunting excur- sions best when he dresses so simply that the stranger who meets the sturdy hunter is sur- prised when he finds out that itis no other than the Emperor of Germany. He is a special favorite among the royal foresters, a set of superb, sinewy, weather beaten men, with faces burnt brown by the sun, whose strong figures look really pictur- esque in their green and gray uniforms. They are not only delighted in having found such an enthusiastic leader in the Emperor, but really admire him, considering him one of theirown. Nothing can make them happier than a visit from him to their humble cottages, for they know him. for years and can tell many a tale of his courage and zealasa hunter before he became Em- peror. An instance is recounted of how he was once barred in the pursuit of a stag by a river; in the heat of the chase, however, he jumped into the river, swam to the other side, climbed up the bank and caught up with the hounds. But lately he finds no time for private hunt- ing excursions, belng always obliged to com- bine some reception with them. His most frequent and favorite guests are the Prince Regent of Bavaria, the Emperor of Austria, the Archduke of Tuscany, King Albert and the Crown Prince of Saxony. As soonas the date ofa hunting festival is decided upon, the royal hunting master with his staff, including the master of hounds and the piquers, goes ahead like an advance agent tothe hunting seat to arrange every- thing for the arrival ofthe distinguished guests. The foresters stationed there bave to report on the condition of the game. The hunters generally arrive in the evening, and early the next morning everything is ready to start; the horses stand chafing at their bits and pawing the ground with impatience, while the sharp yelps of the English hounds mingle with the deep baritone notes of sev- eral couples of German breed. The guests wear red coats, the regulation dlue . leville Accommoc * LOUISVILLE & NASHVILLE 1 southern Fast Mail ‘ Southern Fast Line ] ‘ OHIO & MISSISSIPPI RAILWA ar a Accom.|¢ 7:00 am CB ti, Louisville, Wash.,Balt., * 8:00 am hil. — New ae EE ee & OHIO RAILROAD, ess. .

If there is a grain of truth in the saying that proverbs are the wisdom of the multi- gude embalmed by the witof a single man it fis none the less true that to some familiar distich may be attributed a prevailing misapprehension of the igtelligent majority s to some elementary buf scientific subject. Passing by examples pertaining to other @tUbjects one instance relative to the mari- er's compass may be recalled inthe famil- far line from Pope: And the touched needle trembles to the pole.“ This in turn is a somewhat ponderous imitation of the bright, joyous and delicate lines of a predecessor, Barton Booth, an actor songster, whose name has almost faded out of the minds of men. One song indeed remains to this generation, from it are those well-known words; True as the needie to the pole or as the dtal to the sun.“ The writer, however, isnot by nature an feonociast, and so it is only an incidental ob- ofthis paper to dissipate the error thus tered by poetic’ imagination and bring Again tue realizing sense that this, of all ings, is a practical age. It is rather that north magnetic pole is to be surveyed, and the public desire at least to know what end where the pole is, when was it discov- ered, how frequently it has been approached, and how is it to be revisited. There is a point in Arctic America at which following magnetic conditions prevail: „ the various lines of decliniation con- verge; second, the needle points vertically G@ownward; third, the horizontal force van- ishes an a free horizontally-balanced meedie will remain pointing in whatever di- fection it chances to be placed. While this point is, strictly speaking, the pole of verti- ity, yet itis commonly known as the north ic pole, in contradistinction to the two centers of maximum magnetic force, situ- one in Siberia (about latitude 70 deg. porth and longitude 115 deg. east), and the tothe south of Hudson Bay (about 50 deg. west), the latter being be it understood, pertains more particularly to the magnetic pole and incidentally to the centers of force, and order to make these somewhat technical ts clear to the non-scientific reader, is necessary to enter into brief explana- as to the effects of terrestrial magnet- oh the neeale of the compass. is well known ghetized needle near ite center.

In this. fixed position, where one end points to the magnetic north and the other tothe magnetic south, the di- rection to which the north end of the needle points is toward the magnetic pole, and since over the greater part of the civilized inhab- ited globe this direction is within a few de- grees of the direction of the geographical North Pole, itis generally assumed that the needle always pointstothetrue north, The point toward which it is actually directed is commonly known as the ‘‘North Magnetic Pole,’’ in or near Boothia, Felix Land. writers usually call the north-seeking end **‘austral’’ and the other ‘‘boreal.’’ Among the general public of the United States, the north end is known as the north pole’’ and the other the ‘‘south pole,’’ nat- ural enough designations, vut which are con- fusing whenever the question is treated from a standpoint of the earth as a magnet. It seems most advisable to adopt the terms recommended by Maxwell and Jenkins, in their report of Electrical Standards to the British Association in 1863, whereby the north- seeking pole is called the ‘‘negative’’ and the other the positive.“ If a magnetized needle is suspended by its Ou sert mucs Ne ct i060 — — ee MAP OF REGION AROUND NORTH MAGNBETIO POLE. Location of Magnetic Pole as determined by Ross in 1831, A; Schwatka, 1879, B; Neumayer in 1890, C. The end of the compass which seeks the north is known under several different names. Airy calls the north-seeking end the red,“ and the south-seeking end the plus,“ owing to the custom of marking the north end of the magnet with a spot of red paint. Faraday names the north-seeking ‘end the ‘‘marked’’ and the other the un- other the 2 pole, dissimila middie by along untwisted thread of silk it remains evenly balanced in the same position in which we arrange it. If the needle is mag- netized it immediately changes its position. There are two directions in which the needle can and does move. First, it twists or moves horizontally to right or to left as has already been expiained; and, second, it tips verti- cally, one end upandthe other down, This vertical motion geographical north, it is necessary to give a name tothe usually existing difference be- tween the magnetic north and the true north. It is generally known to the sailor asthe variation of the compass, but by scientific writers it is called the magnetic declination, The magnetic declination then, is the variation of the magnetic meridian from the geographical meridian, and is measured by the angle between the two meridians and is expressed in degress of azimuth from zero either tothe east or tothe west of the true north. When the magnetic north is west of the true north it is west declination and east when the reverse occurs. The honor of first passing to the north of (and from East or West to a contrary direc- tion) the North magnetic pole belongs to Sir Edward Parry in his noted voyage to Mel- ‘| Ville Island in search of a Northwest passage during the years 1819-20. Parry says: Since the time we first entered Sir James Lancas- ter’s Sound the sluggishness of the compass * * had been found very rapidly, though uniformly, to increase, as we proceeded to the westward * * * for the past two days we had been under the necessity of giving up altogether the usual observa- tions for determining the variation of the needle. ** * It was evident, therefore, that avery material change had taken place in the dip, or variation, or in both of these phenomena * * * which made itnot im- probable that we were now making a very near approach tothe magnetic polo. We now witnessed for the first time the curious phenomenon of the directive power of the needle becoming so weak as to be com- pletely overcome by the attractive power of the ship.“ Doubtful of the absolute accuracy of the observations made on shipboard, Parry had observations taken on land on Aug. 7, 1819, 72 deg. 45 min. N., 118 deg. 24 min. W., where **the dip of the needie was 88 deg. 26 min. 42 sec. and the variation 118 deg. 28 min. 87 sec. westerly. The directive power of the hori- zontal needle * * * was * found tobe so weak * * * that they (the compasses) required constant tapping withthe hand to make them traverse at all.’’ In 78 deg.9 min. N., 106 deg. 54 min. W. (southeast point of Byam Martin Island) the variation or declination was 165 deg. 50 min. E., thus indicating that Parry had passed from east to west to the northward of the magnetic pole since making his previous observation in 74deg. 40 min. N., 91 deg. 47 min. W. (Cape Riley beach) where the decli- nation was 128 deg. 59 min. W. His needle at one place pointed nearly W. 8. W. and at the other to the S. 8. E., hence it would at some place between them point due south. In Prince Regent Inlet. 72 deg. 45 min. N., 89 deg. 41 min. W., the nearest approach made by Parry to the magnetic pole, some 170 miles distant, the declination was 118 deg. 16 min. W., and the dip 88 deg. 26 min. The north magnetic pole was located by James Ross while serving under his uncle, Sir John Ross, In connection with the Arctic expedition of 1829 to 1833 to Boothia Felix peninsula, the most northerly point of North observations in winter quarters at Felix Har bor, latitude 69 deg. 59 min. N., lon: gitude 92 w., during 1829-80, showed the ~ to de 89 Gog. min. ination 89 deg. 46 James Ross had visited Cape Felix, ten miles of "ogg supposed America. According to sir John Ross, his tue position of the pole by direct observa - tions. The designated place, named later Cape Adelaide, was situated on the west shore of Boothia Felix, some thirty miles east of King William’s Land. It was reached June 1, and of the surroundings Ross says: The land is very low near the coast, but it rises into ridges of fifty or sixty feet high abouta mile inland. We could have wished that the place so important had possessed more of marked note. It was scarcely censurable to regret that there was not a mountain to indicate a spot to which so much of interest must ever be attained. „We were, however, fortunate in here finding some huts of Esquimaux that had not long been abandoned. * * * We thus took possession of their works and were thence enabled to establish our observations with the greater ease, encamping about half a mile to the westward of those abandoned snow-houses. The necessary observations were immediately commenced, and they werd continued throughout this (June 1, 1831) and the following day. The amount of thedip, as indicated by my dip- ping needle, is 89 deg. 69 min., being thus within one minute of the vertical; while the proximity at least of this pole, if not its actual existence where we stood, was further confirmed by the action, or rather by the total inaction, of the several horizontal needles then in my possession. These were suspended in the most deli- cate manner possible, but there was not one which showed the slightest effort to move from the position in which it was placed. * * * We therefore erected acairn of some magnitude, under which we buried a canis- ter containing a record of the interesting fact. Tho lattitude ofthis spot is 70 deg. 5 min. 17 see., and its longitude 96 deg. 46 min. 45 sec. west. * * As far as our in- struments can be trusted, we had placed ourselves within one minute of the mag- netic pole, but had not fixed on the precise spot. * *# To determine that point with greater, or with absolute precision (if, indeed, such pre- cision be attainable) it would be unecessary to have the co-operation of different observ- ers, at different distances, and in different directions, from the calculated place; while, to obtain all the interesting results which these must be expected to furnish, such labors should also be carried on for consider- able time. * * * I may barely allude to the diurnal and annual motions of the needle, and to the variations in the place of the pole itself, with the consequent deductions which might be made as to the future in this re- spect, allof them being of the highest im- portance in the theory of magnetism.’’ During the years 1883-4 and '3 an expedi- tion under Capt. Back, R. N., passed down the Great Fish River and reached Point Ogle, just to the south of King William Land, Their farthest was indlatitude 68 deg, 14 min, north, longitude 94 deg, 58 min. west, about 100 miles from the north magnetic pole as de- termined three years before by James Ross, At this point the magnetic conditions as de- termined by Back’s observations were, de- Clination 1 deg. 4 min. west, dip 89 deg. 26 min. by one set, and 87 deg. 45 min. by an- other. The observations made from Aug. 12 dificult of — — — — — ——— — Ross from the north, at Lord Mayor Bay, in latitude 69.5 N., longitude 91.5. W. (about 110 miles from the north mag- netic pole). The declination was found to be 87 deg. 40 min. W., and on May 27, 1847, it was 92 deg. 20 min. W. in 69.1 N., 84.7 W, (about ten miles south of Caps OCOrozier, Rae’s farthest on Melville Peninsula). In 1851 Dr. Rae reached Victoria Land, sep- arated by a narrow strait from King Will- iam’s Land, and at his farthest, Point Pelly, was directly west ofand about one hundred miles distant fromthe magnetic pole. Sub- stantially the same place, Gateshead Island, a few miles distant, was reached by Collin- son’s expedition in 1853. During the winter of 1853-4 Dr. Rae occu- pied at Repulse Bay his old quarters, In pass- ing it may be remarked that from Aug. 15 to September, 1853, Rae shot 109 deer, one musk ox, fifty-four brace of ptarmigan and one seal, while the nets produced 190 salmon. From the head of Pelly Bay, in the spring of 1854, Rae crossed sixty miles of land to the west, and traced the west shore of Melville peninsula from Castor and Pollux River, which had been reached by Dease and Simp- son in 1889 to Cape Porter, within thirty or forty miles of Bellot Strait,and not more than seventy miles from the magnetic pole. In 1855, Anderson, a factor of the Hudson Bay Co., by the way of Great Fish River, reached Montreal Island, about 68 deg. north, near King William’s Land,about one hundred miles from the pole, It does not appear that he made any magnetic observations. During his successful search in 1859 for in- formation as to Franklin’s fate, Sir Leopold McClintock traced the entire coast of King William’s Land and thrice visited the mag- netic pole, near which natives were then liv- ing. Ross’ cairn had meanwhile been de- stroyed. McClintock says: On the ist of March we halted to encamp at the supposed position of the magnetic pole, for no cairn remains to mark the spot.’’ McOlintock’s ob- servations at the magnetic pole have never been published, It is of interest to note that Franklin, while completing the northwest passage, probably visited and certainly died in sight ofand scarcely twenty miles distant from the north magnetic pole. The lost records of the Franklin expedition therefore must have contained magnetic observations of especial value, In 1868, Hall, who later died while in com- mand ofthe Polaris expedition, April 27 to 80, visited Cape Ingléfield at the north- west point of Melville peninsula, and the fol- lowing year reached the extreme southern point of King William’s Land, about 100 miles east of the magnetic pole, where on April 29, in latitude 6 deg. 61 min. north, longitadé 8 deg. 12min. west, the declina- tion was 112 deg. west. The following year Hall reached the extreme southern point of King William’s Land and within some eighty miles of the pole, but there made no mag- netic observations. absolutely essential to explain the changes of declination of 86 deg. in En and above 64 deg. in Baffin Bay, since t can be accounted for either by irregular State Troops Ordered Out. 4 11G [GUNS | Will be fired at daybreak as the Anniversary Salute. lm Sate at High Un.

It has been urged that tlia pole is slowly and continually changing its . position over a track having the form of an elongated ellipse. To prove its former movement from east to 5 west and its present change from west east, the observations for magnetic declinds — x tion in Great Britain from 1880 to date ha been quoted. From these it appears the clination in 1880 was 11 deg. 16 min. E.; in 1657, zero; in 1778, 21 deg. 09 min. W.; in 1819 24 deg. 86 min. 14 sec. W.; and now about 15 deg. W. In England then, from 1580 to 1819, the needle has pointed more and more to the west, and since that date has changed its motion steadily back in an easterly direction. The change in England during the past three centuries and in smith Sound for near as long indicate that, whatever causes the secular change in inclination, a complete cycle of change can not, to say occur in less than 800 years. Ross in his account of the location of the magnetic pole expresses the hope Britain had discovered it, that in view of accessibility further examination should made of it in future.

The Free Bchool cares forall the wants of poor chil- Gren, but the special object of its care is that large number of little ones who Guring the greater part of their little lives have no homes because their mothers are Away at work all day. Of this class the in- stitution houses from thirty to forty. Neat Well-kept dormitories for their accommoda- tion occupy the basement of the building, which is fush with the pavement, and also the first floor. These little ones range in age from 6 to 10 years, and none are accepted on either side of these ages. The children permanent homes, for two weeks, two months or even a year, asthe circum- stances warrant. The good ladies who are tm charge of the Mission Free School do not Care however to put upon these children the Stigma of the paupers, and the parents are therefore given an opportunity to pay from 60 cents to $2 a week for the care of their chil- Gren. Sometimes parents release their Matural title to the children in favor of the Mission Free School and in those instances « the officials secure for the little ones perma- nent homes. It was said that the institution looks to all the wants of children. It does not except their education, for attached tothe establisn- ment and indeed the raison d’etre of the school is a free day school whichis attended by fifty children. There is also a Sunday- school, with classes containing 250 pupils. The teachers are well known ladies and gen- tlemen. Mrs. L. M. Fay is the Matron of the institu- tion and her work has been highly praised for its effectiveness and beneficence. The Board of Trustees, who hold the title to the property, number several eminent and philanthropic citizens. Mr. Hugh McKittrick is President; Judge John E. McKeighan, Vice-President, and R. McK. Jones, Treasurer. The ladies who assume the per- sOnal supervision of this deserving institu- tion stand in the front rank of charitable workers in the city. Their names are synon- ymous for practical goodness and genuine philanthropy. The origin of the Mission Free School might almost be said to be due tothe spontaneous combustion of accumulated philanthropy. In 1882 a number of prominent men planned a scheme forthe betterment of the poor chil- dren. The details of the schemes were worked out until the Mission Free School, well built and roomy, arose in testimony of the might of noble labor directed by noble thought. An endowment fund was established by weaithy citizens and it has been the fountain of life ‘for the institution. The officiais have in mind the enlargement of the present building in order that no restrictions of space may hamper the efforts for good of the trustees and the ladies’ board. Queen’s Daughters. The sewing classes of the Daughters of the Queen have closed for the summer, after an. Other successful term. All the little giris were given prizes to reward their diligence. The sewing clase for boys terminated a very rosperous season at St. John’s Library last aturday. In the class were thirty urchins, and half of them hemstitched a linen handkerchief as a sample of their work. The teachers of this class, Miss Marie Lynch and Miss Mamie Mannantine, gave to each pupil a pretty shirt waist to bring back to their minds during the summer months their triumphs in a straoge field of labor. . The committee appointed by the Queen’s Danghters, some time ago, to consider the ways and means for the establishment ofa ing school, have finally decided to postpone the inauguration of the class until the sewing schools are reopened in September. The committee, composed of Mrs. 8. K. Grote, Mrs. J. D. Pullis, Mrs. Geo. M. Lynch and Mrs. P. J. Toomey, met at the residence of the last named lady recently and unanimously decided thatthe fallis a more 8 — time to open the cooking class. 6 society bas long contemplated this nex to its sewing schools, and it is e intention of tne members to secure a qualified teacher to give regular les- e children in the culinary art. athing is wanting Rothing is 54 o start the enterprise.

Novelty and beauty are the goals of each display at the annual Exposition, and the exhibits made by ladies never fall to score a triumph in the achievement of these points of excellence. A display contemplated by the St. Louis Protestant Orphans’ Home for this year, but not yet definitely de- cided upon, will be unique beyond ‘precedent.

This work has been placed in the hands of the Society for the Protection of Women and Children and the members are resolved to perform the task imposed upon them with credit to themselves and a world of good to the children. World’s Fair Association. The World's Fair Association has begun in earnest the work of making a display of woman’s work at the Exposition in the fall. They have secured considerable space in the east nave ofthe gallery. Already the Deco- rative Art Association has promised to make hy yey! andalso the Woman’s Exchange and the St. Louis Protestant Orpbans’ Home. Besides, these displays will be made under the auspices of the pry Women’s Department of the Sst. Louis World's Fair Association, the Ceramic and the Literary and Press Departments. The St. Louis County Association will have a very pretty h, and also the Woman's Christian Tem- perance Union.

Lavender flowers may be bought at a druggist’s for a few cents, and keptin little bags which the book housewife couidn’t dream of designing. Get halfa yard of strong, finely woven white linen, and by drawing threads cut it into pieces about nine inches square. Either hemstitch or fringe two opposite ends. On the linen outline some simple pattern. If your artistic ability will allow, draw scat- tered hepaticas, violets or purple daisies and outline them in wash silks. Then sew up the square to forma sort of case and into it slip a muslin bag half full of dried lavender flow- ers. The bag may be removed whenever it is necessary to reuew the filling or to commit the cover to the laundry. These covers are equally desirable for toilet sachets. A little cheese-cloth bag with violet and orris laid between thin folds of cotton batting and slipped into a dainty linen case on which a violet or two is outlined wit some sentimental quotation, will be a more sensible thing to place among one’s gloves and handkerchiefs than a more elaborate and less durable structure.

Written for the SUNDAY Post-DisPaTon. A lamp isa very important and variabl piece of bric-a-brac, for it is under that head that the modern lamp comes. In winter it should be bright, cheery, glowing andall that suggests warmth and comfort. In sum mer it should beso arranged that a cool sort of light would flitter through its shade and eem no more heating thanthe moonlight hini&g through the trees. The ideal is quite asily attained. Let your summer lamps be numerous and small instead of few and of mammoth propor- tions. Then let the filmy shades be of thin Stuffs and pale colors, and you will be sur- prised at the coolness of the result. Banish the monster wrought-iron stand holding the Pom pellan red bowland shaded by red silk and biack lace; banish the big orange-shaded light-giyer that has been alsoa heat-giver during the winter. Then buy three or four little Princess lamps. They are simple little affairs, with bulbs of glass, yellow, pink or white china, round wicks and small chim- neys. ‘At the base of the bulb is a round rod, with springs, about an inch and a half long. This rod and the ee willfitinto any candle- stick, The glass Princess lamp looks best in agiass or silver candlestick. The yellow rose colored and white bulbs suit stands o the same shade, or look very well in the ivory -colored fluted candlesticks which are having such arunin popular favor. If you have a Dresden candlestick and ever sucha little bit of skill as a china painter you can paintona white bulb enough blossoms to — the match pretty good beneath the shade. For your glass, white and Dresden lamps, pale green shades are pretty and cool-look- ing. The wire frame is covered with thin green lining-silk, and over that green tulle is laid in fine plaits. About the top isa frill of tulle, and at the lower edge arufiie of the silk, covered with the net, hangs. These can be made cheaply at home, and the lamp itself is cheap, unless one buys it from a shop which makes the purchaser pay for the priv- lege of buying at all. Another dainty little affair in which the summer girl, who puts on occasional touches of domesticity will delight, is tiie china water- ing-pot. It is just the thing for the fair chatelaine to carry in her hand as she moves among the jardinieres on her piazza. In shape they are the counterpart of the bright green tin watering-pot of former times, but the are of white china, wdered all over wit blossoms after the Dresden style, or decorat- ed with blue Chinese dragons, impossible garden scenes and the like. The woman to whom these are impossible luxuries may make a fair substitute by getting an unpaint- ed tin can, painting it with cream enamel paint, and when that is dry adding a few scattered blossoms of divers hues. THE CARE OF THE HAIR. Prevailing Styles of Arrangement and Ornament. Written for the SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. A woman is apt to arrange her hair just as Dame Fashion decrees. Whether the pre- valling style is becoming or not is quite a secondary consideration. At present the hair is puffed and arranged in such a way that each puffstands up straight with dig- nity all its own. The latest style of arranging the hair is to have the bang waved and parted in the mid- dle. It should be waved at the sides and the back hair twisted in loops, each loop twisted tightly or stiffened with a piece of braided wire so that it stands up by itself. The slightly waved bang is short, and just beyond itarecuris which assume, by the means of wire, a perpendicular attitude. The arrange- ment of the hair grows higher and higher. Another Rresty ray of dressing it is to have the parted bang while the hairis coiled into aGrecian knot. Below the knot are curls which reach to the nape ofthe neck. To the women with low foreheads a new way of ar- ranging the hair is to have the bang slightly curled back witha wavy, puffed effect. Be- yond the 2 are a mass of little curls, all doing their best to stand as straight as an arrow. The fluffy bang parted, the hair waved at the sides and drawn loosely witha Grecian knot is a style affected by young girls. Gray bair never looks prettier than when parted in the middle and slightly waved. The substitute fora bang is just a few soft curls, The rest of the halr is drawn up on the head and braided. The braid is arranged in such a way thatit extends from The Ornaments for the Hair, the top of the head to the nape of the neck in a graceful curve. It almost seems as if every coil of hair, every distinct puff, has its own peculiar or- nament this season. There are * da g- gers, tinted feathers studded with gems aud silver and gold pins of all varieties, The cir- cles of amber and tortoise which surround the Grecian knot area novelty. They come with daggers attached, which are thrust through the knot. The metal and ribbon Grecian bands, with jeweled buckles, are tightly banded around the coils and puffs of almost every arrangement of the hair. The hair demands a certain amount of at- tention. It should be brushed u every night. It should be kept uncovered as much as possible, and the ends of the hair cut regularly each month. Soap should not be used on the hair, as it makes it brittle. If the hair is falling out, sage tea is one ot the best preparations to wash it with. The roots ofthe hair must be rubbed witha sponge dipped in luke-warm sage tea. A good ney to keep the hair clean ig to wash it with a fresh egg. Rub the ogg in untila lather is formed, then rinse the egg all out in warm water in which has been put a drop ortwootammonia. When the hair is dry it will have a fluffy, light appearance. ARTISTIC WORK ON LINEN. It is Done With a Brush Instead of With a Needle. Written for the SUNDAY Post-DisPatcn. The summer girl is a creature of caprice, and one of her favorite whimsis an affecta- tion of energy in lines of domestic adornment, That is what it means when a whole piazza full of them take violently to fancy work. A confused mass of colored silks lying in the lap of a muslin gown, busy white fingers and dainty white linen make a picture, and 60 the summer gifl who can distinguish be- tweena needle and a bodkin usually trav- els with plenty of fancy work. For the girl who cannot tell ths difference be- tween the two, another style of fancy- work has been devised, It is painung on if the artist does not use either turpentine or mixing oil with the colors ; — — ~~ . * bn * > af * a 1 fete * 8 > > 1 < 2 be, v .

It Is an Airy Subject, But She Spends Much Thought on It. Written for the SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. *Tis only the summer girl who understands the full possibilities ofa fan. That they are many and complicated her past experiences have taught her, consequently the selection of her fans for summer use is of as grave im- portance as the purchase of her best summer bonnet. When sheisattired ina morning costume the fan to be carried is a Japanese affair, one of bright colored paper, with bamboo sticks N.. 8 ap ＋ 5 7 if! . | | Vi, ily | FO he These Are Pretty Fans. and allablaze with gilt butterfiles or essen - tially Japanese flowers. For exclusive after- noon use the fan should bea fleecy creation of gauze, occasionally combined with ribbon. For the evening dance or the out-of-the-way corner flirtation feathers or flowers have the preference. Fans of gauze, arranged in folds, area novelty. They are usually sprayed with gilt or silver spangies. A pretty ribbon fan which a bright girl made herself, was forme of rows of ribbon rosettes. Pink and blue were the alternating colors. Each rosette was hand-made ana sewed on to a thick paper fan. A fan can reach no distinction whatever unless yards of ribbons are used to decorate the handle. The ribbon must blend with the color of the fan, be tied ina bow and then hang on long ends. A fan of fashion is of yellow marabout feathers with sticks of black enamelled in gold. Somewhere upon the hanale in the most unexpected of places the face ofa tiny watch will be seen. The flower fan is simply a fad ofthe summer girl. It is made entirely | of artificial flowers and each blossom has been sprayed with the perfume which in reality it sends forth. ‘ A Fan Bag. The pensive maiden waves to and fro in a deliciously nonchalant manner a fan of heartsease, dark purple and yellow ones mingled together. The rosebud fan is bright and pretty. Each bud is framed in green leaves. Green and pink ribbons are tied about the handle. An exgulsite fan of great delicac white silk, upon which are point lace filed with the wings outlined with In one corner of the mother-o’- pear are the owner's initials in silver. Fan- bags are a pretty as well as a very use- fulfancy. They are made long and narrow, witharibbon shir-string at the top. Some are of wide satin ribbon, hand-painted, while others are of shirred crepe.

Lilacs, both white and purple, are favorites for this sort of trimming and apple wild roses aud poppies are also used. Poppies are especially good flowers for hat decora- tion, for their colors are easily reproduced in silks and their simplicity of form makes them easy toimitate.

The only reason why her observation was not ad- Gressed to him in preference to the girl was that she knew, by a quarter of a century’s experience, that—excelient husband in all othor respects—he never answered, or ever heard, any speech made to him while his Dald head was between the sheets of his morning’s paper. Miss Chamberlain's mind being more disengaged, she answered **Not for ages.’’ **Oonsidering what intimate friends we are, we meet very rarely.’’ Very. **I do not even know whether they are back from Scotland yet. „Wall, on that point 1 can enlighten you; when Iwas in Hackford yesterday, I passed down King street, and their house looked all alive;if it had not been so late I should have gone in.

The Misses Bell, two lively athictic girls of the normal British type, always glad of an ex- cuse for an outing of any size or shape, and in this case really pleased at the prospect of a renewal of intercourse with one of their most favorite families of friends, set out in their little yellow cart on theap- pointed day, and, with their good pony new clipped and fullof beans, did the distance in forty minutes—a circumstance which added to the olasticity of spirits that markod their arrival. She pleasure of the friends in meeting again afteran interval of some months was reciprocal, and the general cheerfulness was heightened by the entrance of the doctor him- self, with whom both the young ladies had long professed themselves to be deeply in love. It is true that that entrance did not take place till luncheon was almost half over, and that at first the host did not seem to be up to. his usual mark in solrits. Bat the joint influence of a couple of glasses of his own excellent sherry and of the sprightly looks and challenging jests of his young visitors soon brought up bis conversa- tion to its wonted level of cheerful persifiage, and the buzz of talk was so loud and the topics so gaily absorbing that it was not till the servants had brought in coffee that the little assembly became conscious of the dif- ficulty of seeing the lumps of sugar in the small silver basin, of what an unusual dark- noss for the time of day had overspread the 2 2 is Blind Man's holiday!“ exclaimed the elder Miss Bell, pouring the cream—she was misguided enough to drink cream with Diack coffee—into her saucer instead of her eupurn on the electric light,’’ ordered the doctor, „his is really past a joke, cried the doc- tor’s wife.

It was one of those occasions when the elements had thoroughly got the better of man. The that could be called a sight nal that for some moments it occupied the whole attention of the party; but after a few minutes the voice of the younger and less valiant of the guests was raised in lament- able appeal to her sister. „Peggy! How shall we get home?“ „We had better set off at once, as soon as the pony can be pu: in,”’ replied the more de- cided senicr. „Mrs, Ohamberiain, may I ring and tell them to bring the cart around?’’ But the proposal (which inthe faceof the deed almost maniacal enough 7s f . * * ‘« ! ® 4 e N 8 * A, . modify it by a consent to wait half an hour, of an improvement in the At the end of the half hour provement had taken place end of a second halt the night under the safe shelter of their roof, instead of braving the rage of a tempest as flerce as that which broke over King Lear’s dishonored head. And in point of fact, nothing could be heartier and more warmly urged than the entreaties of father, mother and daughter, Upon the younger of the Misses Bell those entreaties were far from being without effect. She would willingly have yielded to them had not her sister of- fered a resistance as obstinate as it was ap- parently senseless tothe hospitable tenders made her, parrying each objection witha resolved and almost fevered brevity of re- fusal. **You have no lamp?’’ **I can borrow some from your stable.“ They would not be of the slightest use; in the snow you could not see them half a yard or. Puck knows every inch of the way; he could find it blindfold. And’’—catching cagerly at what on the first blush might seem a sounder reason, for her headstrong determination — ‘‘my mother will be 80 nervous about us if we do not get home in good time. It you set off now you will probably never get home at all, and as to your motber you know we have a telegraph office in the asylum, and I can send her a wire at once, to tell her that we are keeping you. Silenced but not convinced the girl stood still, looking out upon the winter night now fully fallen, though the afternoon was yet young; her objections all met and answered, but with her mysterious¥epugnance to adopt - ing the one rational course evidently not in the least abated. Why will not you say yes?’’ asked Mrs. Chamberlain, who is a kind motherly soul— woe are quite hurt that you are so loth to give us a few more hours of your company, and we are not half talked out yet.“ believe, exclaimed Miss Chamberlain, that the truth is she is afraid to spend a night in a madhouse! Ah!“ crying out as one that had madea discovery; since some- thing in Miss Bell’s face told her that she had hit the right nail on the head—‘*that is it!“ is that really possible?’’asked the doctor, in a tone of grave surprise. My dear Miss Peggy, I have too good an opinion of your sense to credit such an accusation.’’ **Indeed, you need not be afraid of them, added his wife, eagerly. This house is quite shut ot from them. We never even hear a sound ot them, and as to their getting at 70 u— Even from your point of view, you would be safer here than anywhere else just now,’’ said Miss Chamberlain, seriously, for it happens one of them escaped last night, and —’’..sho stopped abruptly, arrested in the indiscreet confidence by a displeased glance from her father. One of them escaped!’’ repeated Miss Boll, slowly, and with blanching lips, and though it soon became clear that she would get no further information on the subject fromany member of the doctor’s family, the idea of anenfranchised maniac lurking possibiy de- hind snowy hedge or blind wall to pounce out upon ber and her sister on their lonely homeward drive did what the prayers and reasonings of her friends had been power- less to effect. Without any further resist- ance she consented to submit to the exi- gencies of fate and weather and remain at the Lunatic Asylum till the next morning, The evening passed pleasantly enough, the banging of the tempest outside against the well-shuttered windows serving only to em- phasize the contrast of the warm luxury within. The doctor—a fact which his family pointed out to the guests as an unwonted compliment to thom—spentthe whole even- ing in the littie circle, enlivening them with his easy cheerfulness, and now and again interesting them by brief excursions into more serious themes, connected in some degree with the experiences of his pro- fessional life. Once or twice, it is true, he was interrupted in the middie of an anecdote ora phrase bya summons to speak with some person or per- sons unknown, whose names were commun cated in an undertone to his master alone by the butler; and on all these occasions the vis- itors saw or fancied a slight frownon his brow when he returned. The hour of bed- time—a moderately early one—had arrived, and Mrs. Chamberlain volunteered to show her two young visitors to their room, It was their first introduction to it, as at the hour of dinner it had still been in course of preparation for them, and they bad made such brief toilet as their want of a change of raiment allowed in Miss ChambDerlain’s sleeping chamber. As she bid her friends good night the elder Miss Bell took occasion to ask her, in a nervous whis- per, whether it wero really true that one of the patients had lately escape? Miss Cham- berlain, casting a hasty glance behind her, toassure herself that her father was not within hearing, nodded a reluctant assent, adding eagerly: ‘‘lam sure it is not due to any neglect; they are most carefully looked after, but you have no notion how cunning they are. This one squeezed himself through a holo where you would not have thought there was room for a starved cat to pass. And hehas not been rvcaptured? He is still at large?’’ Again the daughter of the head of the asy- lum made a sound of unwilling assent, im- mediately followed by the eayer assurance. They are sure to find him; father has sent out warders in every direction, and the po- lice are scouring the country besides;it was the inspector whom father went out to speak to just now. Then as the visitors still looked uncomfort- able, she added, with emphasis— „He is certain to be brought back inthe course ofa day or two; they all are; very likely he will come back of his own accord. Poor wretch; I am sure I hoposo. What he must be suffering, exposed to such weather asthis!’’ asthe hurricane, ina fresh access of ungovernable fury, mado even the sub- stantially-bullt walls rock. „Is he a young man or an old one?“ Not younx! That is what made his activ- ity so doubly astonishing, but’’—with a rally- ing laugh—‘‘it is quite a revelation to me that you are such a coward. I thought you wore a paladin ot valor. Is not it true that you once knocked down a cabman in Paris who was impertinent to you?’’ „„am not afraid of anything I can knock down, but one could not knock downa luna- tic. They are so frightfully strong. Well, there, I can’t help it, and it is no use arguing about it, but lam inexpressibly afraid of any one who has lost thoir wits.’’ This colloguy, not very satisfactory to either party, was ended by Mrs. Chamber- lain calling to her daughterto stop chatter- ing, and let her friends go to bed. The friends in question bid the young girl there- upon a hasty good-night, and followed their hostess. To their not altogether pleasant surprise, they found their guide turning away from that partof the house occupied by the family, and passing through a swing door, which gave access to a long passage with doors on each side of it, We are not going to be near you, then?“ said Caroline Bell, in a rather faltering Po any of the—the patients sleep in those rooms?’’ indicating the doors before men- tioned. Oh, dear, no.,“ with ashade of impati- ence. ‘‘As we assured you before, we are entirely shut off and separated from the asylum—as completely as you cohld be at Hackfora.’’ **Then’’-—hoesitating—‘‘does anyone sleep in those rooms ‘*They are almost all spare rooms. My husband’s predecessor had a large family, ana built this wing for nurseries and school- rooms; but as we are such a small party, we keep it for friends.“ Nothing could be tse Read have : } - 8 rey N ere 4 4 . 1 * 1 A ‘ia ne * om rye * er * . "4 8 » | oe * * t * i wy + BS e 1 ure in ; and so, after replying suitably to her hospitable hope that they would sleep well and ask for anything they wanted, they saw her depart. No sooner was her back turned than both—the escaped lunatic being, despite all reassurances, a good deal on their minds—began an exhaustive examination of the apartment, It is rather a mockery to bid us to ask for anything we want when there is no bell,’’ said Peggy, reconnoiltering the wall. „Ahl! there was evidently one of the old- fashioned bell pulls, andithas come down and not been replaced.’’ ‘*‘What is far worse than there being no bell there are no matches,’’ ejaculated Caro- line, coming back to the fre from an excur- sion round the hastily, and as now appeared carelessly, prepared apartment. And what is worst of all,’’ cried Peggy, from the door whose handle she was dis- tractedly rattling, ‘‘there is no bolt, and the lock is out of order!’’ How truly awful!“ said Caroline, now fully infected with her sister’s terrors; *‘and there is no earthly reason why that unfortun- ate escaped madman may not be hiding in ove of these empty rooms.’’ And we have absolutely keeping him oyt!’’ They looked at one another, the eyes of each large with apprehension. Peggy, being always the most fertile in resource, was the first to recovor the use of her common sense, Hier looks wandering round in search of weapons against their joint peril alit upon an old-fashioned box-couch, the seat of which, when raised, disclosed a receptacle where some former maid or matron of the familly had kept her clothes. It was a heavy. solid, well-stuffed old piece of furniture, and the idea flashed upon Miss Bell’s mind that it might be used as a barricade. This notion was at once im- parted to her sister, and without any delay both girls employed their muscles, hardened by continual use of oarsand tennis bats, in rolling the ponderous mahogany settle up a guinst the otherwise undefended door. The effort which it cost them to effect this gave them the consolation of knowing that at lenst so serious an obstacle to entrance would not be mastered without their being awak- ened in time to be made aware of the fact. As tothere being no matches, Peggy snid, when they had completed their de- fense, we must mako up as good a fire as we can—at least there is plenty of coal—and stack it up with small coal and hot ashes, and whichever of us wakes firstin the night—no doubt’’ (gloomily) ‘‘we shall both wake often engugh—must replenish it.“ Having made these dispositions, they were preparing to get into bed, whenthe younger sister asked in a cautiously lowered voice— Ha ve you looked under the bed? Do you remember that terrible story by Dickens of the maniac who came out from under the bed covered with bairand clinking chains?’’ „For heaven’s sake, do not remind me of it now!’’ cried the elder precipitately, and then they dropped on their Knees and ex- plored the recesses under the large double bed, extending their scrutiny afterwards im- partially to every possible and impossible article of furniture. But no lunatic lurked even in one of the little drawers of the wash- bandstand; nor had compressed himself into the coalscuttle, and so,with a couple of sighs of comparative relief, they at length really did retire for the night, and their youth, the pinching cold of the night, and their morning drive through the cold air, prevailing even over their terrors, they soon fell asleep. Both were awoke atthe same instant, with the same start, and by the same noise. What is that?’’ asked Caroline, in a voice betwixt sleep and wake. It is only the chiming clock of the Asylum Chapel. Someone, who hada mad husband here, gave it to them; it plays a tune once every three hours! Listen! itis ‘Home, Sweet Homo. Jam sure I wish we were at Home, Sweet Home,’’ rejoined Caroline, reassured and half-laughing. ‘*‘What afright it gave me! How my heartis beating! Is not yours?’’ **What time is it striking? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve! Dear me! Only twelve! Ishould have thought it had been much later, though, to be sure, one might have told by the fire being so good still that it was not. These words were scarcely out of Peggy’s mouth when her sister broke into her speech with an alarmed whisper. ‘Hush! What vas that? Did not you hear no means of another nolse—quite a different one?“ Both listen. It was only your imaginhtion,’’ irritably. **T wish you would not be so fanci——’’ The word broko offinthe middle, for the speaker’s ear had caught the same sound as had ber sister’s. It was a very trifling sound but there was no doubt about it. It sprang apparently from a footfall at the far end of the passage outside theirdoor. It was not the step of a person walking along naturally on some confessed and open errand; as in- deed, what should bring any one on such an errand to that shut-up and somewhat iso- lated part of the house at midnight? To the ears of the listeners it seemed beyond doubt that it was a stealthy step that sought not to be overheard; with something slow, and strange and shuffling about it. Slow as it was it came nearer and nearer. It had, judging from tho sound, reached their door. He has stopped!’’ said one of the suffo- cated iris to the other in a stranglod whisper. On neither of thoir minds did there rest the shadow of a doubt thatthis surreptitious visitor was the runaway patient, who had concealed himself inoneof theempty bed- rooms opening onthe passage, and now re- assured by the stillness of the slumbering house had issued forth. It was quite true he had stopped; not only stopped but was try- ing the door. By the firelight they could see the handle turn. Apparently baffied by the resistance offered by the barricading box- sofa, thelr unseen assailant paused, no doubt to pull himself together for that thrust whose maniacal strength would send the obstacle so futilely built up dy them fiying into the middle of the room, leaving them an absolutely defenceless prey to his insane rage, irritated probably to frenzy by the opposition. Both had sat up in bed, ana with eyes starting out of their heads and ears strained almost to bursting, waited in a dreadful silence, broken after a moment or two by an exchange of anguished whispers. ‘*What shall we do?’’ ‘*Shall we hide under the bed?“ „He would pull us out. „O Can we get out of the window:“ It is shuttered,.’’ Shall we try to get hold ofthe fireitrons?’’ No, no, the least noise would rouse him!“ The words were scarcely out of Miss Bell’s mouth, when, instead of the expected thrust against the door, a voice—a thin, husky voice—was heard piping through the key- hole. Both girls were listening so intently that—faint as the utterance was—not a sylia- ble was lost upon them, ‘*I—cannot—lie—there! I—must—lie—here! I—am—dead! I—am—buried!’’ Then siionce, perfect silence. The listen- ers even then were incapable of exchanging evenawhisper. In the excess of their ter- ror at the obvious confirmation of the lunacy of their visitor contained in the words they had overheard, petrified by fear, expecting every moment to seetheir defences give way, yielding toa momently expected push, they sat for what seemed to them to be hours, but what they learnt to have been only a quarter ofan hour, by the stroke of the clock that had originally awakened them, and had an- nounced the first fifteen minutes after mid- night. Thesound had scarcely died away, when again the ghostly piping Voice outside became audibie. **I~-cannot—lie—there! I—must—lie—here! I—am—dead! 1—am-—buried!’’ Tho words were identical with those before uttered, but in this case they were followed by an inarticulate sound, which might be a sigh or a groan;and by the noise as of some heavy object falling or throwing itself on the floor. There could be no doubt that the mad- man had stretched himself across the thresh- old. What would be his next move? It incredible that he would make no That his slumber might be prolonged till morning could bring help and rescue to them was their te prayer; a prayer that as the talkative chapel clock told them ofthe march past of the eerie hours of the night, seemed more and more likely to be granted, At length—oh, what a long length that seemed!—at about 6 o’clock, to their inexpressible relief, they heard the sound of the swing door opening, of several feet coming down the passage, and of twoor three voices talking in subdued tones. It must be the warders who have traced him here!“ said Peggy, finding voice for the first time for several hours, and speaking with a quivering accent as one reprieved at the gallows’ foot, Oh, I hope there are plenty of them! he is sure to resist desperately.’’ “IT havea good mind to peep out; shall 1?“ Oh, do not, do not; he might spring upon us before they could stop him.’’ Again they listened. The voices and feet had obviously, like the lunatic, paused out- side their door. Exclamations of a smothered sort, and expressions of what the listeners could not exactly determine were audible, but to the surprise of the two girls no tones atall resembling the uncanny ones they had heard at midnight could be distinguished. „He is evidently letting them take him quite quietly without making any resist- ance,’’ Do you thing it possible he could have stolen away without our hearing him?’’ **Quite out of the question. Why,what odd noises they are muking! What can they be doing with him? They must be carrying him off! And how js it that he does not utter a —ĩ oy Do you think they can have gagged m * cannot imagine. Their tread does sound strangely heavy. Well, thank God! we are safenow. Whata dreadful night, and how tired Iam!’’ flinging herself on her pillows. A couple of hours later a housemaid, tired of knocking and pushing, at length succeeded in waking the exhausted guests, and induced them to drag themselves out of bed, and re- move their no longer needed bulwark from the door. The maidservant looked white and flurried. **Whatever did you do that for, miss?’’ she inquired, with an astonished glance at the piece of furniture thus diverted from its natural use. Her tone was so reproachful that the elder Miss Bell replied hastily that it was in consequence of there being no lock on the door, but the girl for some reason seemed to think the explanation an insufficient one and continued to regard them as they felt with a pale and upset air while arranging their baths. The family’s breakfast hour was 9, and as the guests knew that the doctor was the soul of punctuality they hastened over their tollets, despite the temptation which their feeling of fatigue and the desire to talk over their adventure held out to them to dawdie. But, on the other hand, the eager wish to tell of their perils and to hear the explanation of their rescue ga vo a more than usual alacrity to their movements; s0 that, with only one glance of a curiosity, that was still a trembling one, at the door mat across which their visitor had been extended, and one at the doors into the corridor, to see, by its being ajar, which was the onethat had given egress to bim, they hurried into the breakfast room before thelast stroke of the hour had chimed upon the frosty air. It was empty, and although ina few moments the butler, who had caught his master’s virtue, brought inthe breakfast, yet the kettle had been spitting and blowing over its spirit lamp, and the hot dishes sitting with their hats on fora good quarter of an hour before the family appeared. They cannot all be putting on the strait waistcoat!’’ said Caroline in a low voice to her sister. Mrs. Chamberlain and Lily have never anything to do with the patients. What can have become of them!’’ The ladies alluded to answered their ex- pressions of wonder by entering at that mo- ment, and the doctor followed hard upon them. But was it the doctor? Was it the doctor’s wife? Was it the doctor’s daughter of yesterday? Preoccupied as were the Misses Bell by their experiences of the past night, and bursting with eagerness toimpart them, they could not fail to perceive the change that had come over their hosts since they had parted from them on the previous evening, An unmistakable cloud of gloom rested on each and all of the habitually cheerful faces of the Chamberlain family; and the doctor met them without the smallest approach to that friendly jesting that usually marked his greeting. They were so taken aback by this unexpected metamorphosis that—full as they were of their own adven- ture, they felt at once that, for some mysterious reason, it was im- possible forthe moment, to introduce the subject. They all sat downto the table in constrained silence; the host with mechanical hospitality offering his visitors the contents of the dishes before him, and then absently helping himself, Mrs. Chamberlain had bya motion of the head intimated the uselossness of offering heranything. The daughter ate her breakfast witha rather furtive air, as if ashamed of havingany appetite! The meal had proceeded for sometime in this gloomy fashion, when Peggy Bell, unable any longer to bear the Oppression of the unexplained duliness that had fallen upon the party; and considering that it had probably no connec- tion with the incidents of the night, resolved to break the spell of silence by a narrative of her own and her sister’s alarms, and began rather abruptly: Me had such an adventure last night!“ Nobody made any comment upon this opening, somewhat to the narrator's sur- prise, and she proceeded: Someone came to our door at 12 o’clock and tried to get in.“ **Still—how odd—no comment, dut a sort of rustling movement from behind the tea kettle showed that the communication had made the hostess give a sort of start. ‘*«Whoever it was, turned the handle of the door, but could not get in, because we had dragged the sofaup against the door, as it would not lock. Fes?“ The doctor’s voice unquestionably sounded oddly, and ho had put on his pince- ner, the better to see the speaker. Miss Lily had dropped her bit of toast. When he found he could not get in, he said something through the Keyhole, in such a queer voice, as if—with a hesitation, born of fear of giving offense—he was not in his right mind.“ „Oh, he was as mad as a hatter,’’ put in Caroline, eagerly. ‘‘That was what terrified us so. There was no sense in what he said, We heard it quite distinctly. What were the exact words, Peggy?’’ cannot lie there; Imust lie here; I am dead, lam buried!“ replied the elder sister, endeavoring to give as nearly as possible the quavering piping quality of the utterance. ‘*He said it twice, added Caroline, with just a quarter of an hour between, and after the last time he gave a sort of grunt and seemed to throw himselfor fall dowh right accross the threshold, and we beard no more of him; but oh, how fright—’’ She stopped abruptly with the half finished word upon her lips, for Mrs. Chamberlain had risen sud - denly from the table, and with a scarcely stified sob had hurried out of the room. Her daughter hastened after her and the doctor, with a smothered ejaculation of concern, followed them. The guests were left staring at each other in consternation. „What has come to them all?’’ asked the elder, in a tone of blank dismay. ‘*Something dreadful has evidently hap- pened,’’ replied the other. perhaps he murdered somebody before he came to us—a warder, probably?’’ „Or perhaps he has escaped again They had time to indulgein many other conjectures, with less or more of about them, as for a considera bie period they possession of — * principa generally stomach and liver; pw organs right and all will be weil. trom two to four Pills twice a day for a short time will remove the the sufferer to sound and lasting health.

My dear girls,’’ he said, taking a hand of each, 'I do not know what you will think of us; we owe you a thousand apologies; but I am sure your kind hearts will forgive ‘us when I tell you of the very painful event that has happened. He paused ; but seeing the eager expectation in the oyes of his two auditors, proceeded, Lou no doubt did not know—for it was a subject that there was no reason for speak- ing of—that my wife’s father, who has long been In a state of imbecility—he was 82 years old—has lived here for many years, and has occupied some of the rooms in that corridor out of which yours opened.’’ The doctor paused, as if approaching a disagreeable theme. Last night, I grieve to say, the nurse in charge of him, a person in whom I had the most absolute confidence, got helplessly drunk, and the poor old man, in the absence of all control, got out of d and rambled— we had no idea that he would have been capable of such an exertion—to your door.’’ he two girls, who had been listening breathlessly, with their mouths open, here gave utterance to an exclamation of horror, ut their host, making a sign to them not to interrupt him, went on. »The reason why he chose that door in particular, was that twenty years ago his wife, to whom he was passionately attached, died in your room, and in his weakened state of intellect, which, however, never impaired his memory of her, he imagined he should —_ find her there, where he had last seen er.’ Again the doctor halted, but this time he had no need to enjoin silence on his hearers, Dumbfounded and aghast at the entire up- setting of their pre we geht theory, struck with horror at the conse quences of their own cowardice, they awaited the denouement with dilated eyes and bianched cheeks. The effort must have exhausted the little vitality left in him, for after he had given ut- terance to the sentence you overheard he must bave fallen down in a state of insensi- bility; the groan which frightened you 80 much’’—(here a horrid reminiscence flashed across Caroline that she had characterized it as a ‘grunt’)—‘‘must have been his last He must have been dead some hours— uite cold—when he was found até his morning.’’ tory was ended. But not for some time was any comment upon it forthcoming. Then one of the hearers said, almost in a whisper: It was not the escaped lunatic then, not the runaway patient?’’ God bless you, no.“ returned the doctor. with a burst of ill-humor which seemed to do him good. How the plaguecould it have been when he was brought back five minutes after you bad left the drawing-room? Ifyou had not had that unlucky idea so firmly wedged in your mind, things might have terminated differently, the poor old gentle- man might——’’ He interrupted himself, re- memberiIng that however foolish their con- duct had been, it Was not guite kind to tell his oung friends that they had been directly nstrumental in his father-in-law's death. But though he did not fnish his sentence they were Very well able to do it for him in their own minds; and not long after- wards, without having been admitted to any farewell from their hostess, or her daughter, they set off, much crestfallen, for their home. 2 * * 5 * * * Although it was represented to her by her husband that her conduct was both trrational and unchristian, Mrs. Chamberlain could never be persuaded to invite the Misses Bell to luncheoh at the Lunatic Asylum again.

PART II. **The dress which 1 tound waiting for me Was of a peculiar shade of blue; it was of material, a sort of Delye, but it unmistakable signs of having beon worn It could not bave been a better tit if I had been measured for it. Both Mr. and Mrs. Rucastlo expressed a delight at the look of it which seemed quite exageerated in its Vehemence, They were both waiting for me in the drawing room, which isa very large room, stretching along the entire second floor of the house, with three long windows Teaching down to the floor. A chair had been placed close to the central window with ites back turned towards it. In this I was asked to sit, andthen Mr. Rucastle, walking uUpandonthe other side of the room, began to tell me a series of the funniest stories that Ihave ever listened to, You cannot im- ne how comical he was, and I laughed un- Iwas quite weary. Mrs. Rucastle, how- Over, who evidontly has no sense of humor, o much as smiled, but sat with her bands in her lap and a sad, anxious look upon her face. After an hour or 60, Mr. Ru- Castle suddenly femarked that it was time to commonce the duties of the day, and that 1 might change my dress and then go to ltttle Edward in the nursery, wo days later this same performance was gone through under exactly similar cir- cumstances. Again I changed my dress, again I sat in the window, and again I laughed heartily at the funny stories, of which my employer had an immense reper- toire, and which he told inimitably. Then he handed mea yellow backed novel, and moving my chair a little sideways sothat my Own shadow might not fall upon the page, he begged me to read aloudto him. I read for abou. ten minutes, beginning inthe heart of a chapter, and then suddenly in the middle ofa sentence he ordered me to cease and to change my dress. **You can easly imagine, Mr. Holmes, how curious I became asto what the meaning of this extraordinary performance could poss!- bly be. They were always very careful, I ob- served, to turn my face away from the win- dow so that I became consumed with a desire to see what was going on behind my back. At first it seemed impossible, but I soon de- visedampans. My hand mirror had been broken, soa happy thought seized me, andl concealed a piece of the glass inmy hander- chief. On the next occasion in the midst of my laughter I put my handerchief upto my eyes an’ was ablejwith a little management to see all that there was behind me. I con- fess that I was disappointed. There was nothing. **At least, that was my first impression. At the second glance, however, I perceived that there was a man standing in the Southampton road, asmall, bearded man in a gray sult, who seemed to be looking in my direction. The road is an important highway, and there are usually people there. This man, how- ever, was leaning against the ratlings which bordered our field and was looking earnestly up. Ilowered my handkerchief and glanced at Mrs. Rucastle to find her gaze fixed upon me witha most searching glance. She said nothing, but I am convincod that she had divined that I hada mirror in my hand and had seen what was bebind me. She rose at once. ** *‘Jephro,’ said she, there is an imperti- nent fellow upon the road there who stares up at Miss Hunter.’ „No friend ol yours. he asked. „No, I know no one in these parts.’ Dear me! How. very impertinent! Kindly turn round and motion him to go away.’ ‘**Surely it would be better to take no notice.’ „No, no, we should have him loitering here always. Kindly turn round and wave him away like that.’ dia as Iwas told and at the same in- stant Mrs. Rucastie drew down the blind. That was a week ago, and from that timel have not sat againin the window, nor have I worn the blue dress, nor seen the man in the road. „Pray continue, said Holmes, ‘‘Your narrative promises to be a most interesting one. **You will find it rather disconnected, I fear, and there may prove to belittle relation between the different incidents of which I speuk. On the very first day that I was at the Copper Beeches Mr. Rucastle took me to @ small outhouse which stands near the kitchen door. As we approached itI heard the sharp rattling of a chain and the sound as of a large animal moving about. ** *Look in here,’ said Mr. Rucastle, show- ing me a slit between two planks, ‘Is he not a beauty?’ „looked through and was conscious of two glowing eyes and of a vague figure huddied up in the darkness. ** *Don't be frightened,’ said my employer, laughing at the start I had given. It's only Carlo, my mastiff. I call him mige, but really old Toller, my groom, is the ofly man who can do anything with him. Weonly feed him once a day and not too much then, so that he is always as keen as mustard. Toller lets him loose every night and God help the trespasser who he lays his fangs upon, For goodness sake don’t you ever, on any pretext, sét your foot over the threshold at nigut, for it ig as much as your life is worth.’ ne warning was no idle one, for two nights later I happened to look out of my bed-room window about 2 o’clock in the morning. It was a beautiful moonlight night, and the lawn in front or the house was over and almost as bright as day. Iwas standing, rapt inthe peaceful beauty - Of the scene, whenI was aware that some- thing was moving under the shadow of tho copper beeches. As it emerged into the moonshine Isaw whatit was. It wasa giant Gog, as large as a calf, tawny tinted, with hanging jowl, black muzzieand huge pro- ecting bones. It walked slowly across the wn and vanished into the shadow upon the other side. That dreadful silent sentinel gent a chill to my heart which I do not think that any burglar could have done. „% And now I have a very strange experience to tell you. I had, as you know, cut off my hair in London and I had placed it it a great coll at the bottom of my trunk. One evening after the child was in bed 1 began to amuse myself by examining the furniture of my room and by rearranging my own little things. There wasan old chest of drawers in the room, the two upper ones empty and open, the lower one locked. I had filled the fret with my linen and, as I had still much to pack away, I was naturally annoyed pot having the use of the third drawer, It struck me that it might have been fastened by a mere oversight, I took out my bunch of Pos and tried to open it. The very first key Mtted to perfectionand I drew the drawer | . There was only one thing in it, but I am sure that you would never guess what it | was my ool! of hair. At t that was my first impression, I took it up and examined it. Miss Hunter?’ It was of the peculiar tint and the samo thickness. Pet then the impossibility of the thing ob- trudeditselfuponme. How could my hair been locked m the drawer? With handsi undid my trunk, turned contents and drew from the bottom wn hair. I laid the two tresses together @ndlaseure you that Deter toner Was it not extraordinary as I would I could make nothing at m meant. I returned the strange | anaisaid nothing of the ‘Rucasties, as I felt that I had have remarked, Mr. Holmes, and I soon ha d a pretty good ͤ plan of the whole house in my head. There was one wing, however, which appeared not to be inhabited at all. A door which faced that which led into the quarters ofthe Tollers opened into this suite, butit was invariably locked, One day, however, as I ascended the stair I met Mr. Rucastle coming out through this door, his keys in hfs hand and a look on his face which made him A Very different person to the round, jovial man to whom I! was accustomed, His cheeks were red, his brow all crinkled with anger, and the veins stood out at his temples with passion. He locked the door and hurried Hast me without a word or a look. **This aroused my curiosity, so when I went out fora walk in the grounds with my charge I strolied round to the side from which I could see the windows of this part of the house. There were four of them in a row, three of which were simply dirty, while the fourth was shuttered up. They were evi. Gently all deserted. 4s I strolled up and down, glancing up occasionally, Mr. Rucastle came out to me, looking as merry and jovial as ever. Ah!“ said he, Tou must not think me rude if I passed you without a word, my dear young lady. I was preoccupied with business matters,’ **l assured him that I was not offended. Dy the way,’ said I, you seem to have quite a suite of spare rooms up there, and one of them has the shutters up.’ Ie looked surprised and, as it seemed to me, a little startled at my remark. ** *Photography is one of my hobbies,’ said he. ‘Il have made my dark room up there. But, dear me, what an observant young lady we have come upon! Who would have belleved it? Who would have ever believed it?’ He spoke in a jesting tone, but there was no jest in his eyes as he looked at me. I read suspicion there, and annoyance, but no jest. Well, Mr. Holmes, fromthe moment that I understood that there was something about that suite of rooms which I was not to know, I was all on fire to go over them. It was not mere curiosity, though I have my share of that. It was more a feeling of duty, a feeling that some good might come from my pene- trating to this place. Perhaps it was a woman’s instinct which save me that feel- ing. At any rate it was there and I was keenly on the lookout for any chance to pass the forbidden door. It was only yesterday that the chance came. Imaytell you that besides Mr. Ru- ness there, Do you see?’ He ‘I am sure that I do not know.’ It is to keep people out who have no bus!- still smil- ing in the most amiable manner. am sure if I had known—’ „„ Well, then, you know now. And if you ever put your foot over that threshold again—" here in an instant the smile hard - ened into a grin of rage and he glared down at me with the face of a demon, I'u throw you to the mastif.’ was so terrified that I do not know what I did. Isuppose that I must have rushed past him into my room. I remember nothing until I found myself lying upon my bed trem- bling all over. Then 1 thought of you, Mr, Holmes; I could not live there longer without some advice, I was frightened of the house, of the man, ot the woman, of the servants, even ofthe child. They were all horrible to me. If I could only bring you down all would be well. Of course, I might have fied from the house, but my curiosity was nearly as strong as my fear. My mind was soon made up. I would send vou a wire, I put on my hat and cloak, went dowa to the office, which is about half a mile from the house, and then returned, feeling very much easier. A horrible doubt came into my mind as I approached the door lest the dog might be loose, but I remembered that Toller had drunk himself into a state of insensibility that evening and I knew that he was the only one in the household who had any influence with the savage creature, or who would venture to set him (free, I slipped in in safety and lay awake half the night in my joy at the thought of seeing you. I had no difficulty in getting leave to come into Winchester this morning, but I must be back before 3 o'clock, for Mr. and Mrs. Rucastle are going ona visit and will be away all evening, so that 1 must look after the child. Now, I have told vou all my adventures, Mr. Holmes, and 1 should be very glad if you could tell me what itall means and, above all, what I should do.’’ Holmes and I had listened spell-bound to this extraordinary story. My friend rose now and paced up and down the room, his hands in his pockets, and an expression of the most profound gravity upon his face. ‘*Is Toller still drunk?’’ he asked, „es. I beard his wife tell Mrs. Rucastle that she could do nothing with him.“ „That is well. And the Rucasties go out to-night?’’ „res. Is there a cellar lock?’’ „es, the wine cellar.’’ ou seem to me to have acted all through this matter like a very brave and sensibie girl, Miss Hunter. Do you think that you could perform one more feat? I should not ask it of you if I did not think you a quite ex- ceptional woman. „Iwill try. What is it?’’ with a good strong „Nou Thieves, Spies and Thieves!“ castle both Toller and his wife find some- thing todo in these deserted rooms and I once saw him carrying a large black linen bag with him through the door. Recently he has been drinking hard and yesterday even ing he was very drunk, and when I came up stairs there was the key in the door. I have no doubt at all that he had left it there. Mr. and Mrs. Rucastle were both down stairs and the child was with them, so that I had an ad- mirable opportunity. I turned the Key gently in the lock, opened the door and slipped through. There was a little passage in front of me, unpapered and uncarpeted, which turned at a right angle at the further end. Round this corner were three doors ina line, the first and third of which were open. They each led into an empty room, dusty and cheerless, with two windows in the one and one in the other, so thick with dirt that the evening light glimmered dimly through them. The center door was closed and across the outside of it had been fastened one of the broad bars of an iron bed, padlocked at one end to a ring in the wall and fastened atthe othor with a strong cord. The door itself was locked as well and the n Throw You to the Mastiff. key was not there. The barricaded door corresponded clearly with the shuttered window outside, and yet I could gee from the glimmer beneath it thatthe room was not in darkness. Evidently there was a skylight which let in ight from above, As I stood in the passage gazing at this sinister door and wondering what secret it might vell, I sud- denly heard the sound of steps inside the room and saw a shadow pass back- wards and forwards against the little slit of dim Nght which shone out from under the door. A mad, unreasoning terror rose up in me at the sight, Mr. Holmes. My overstrung nerves failed me suddenly and I turned and ran—ran as though some dread- ful hand were behind me, clutching at the skirt of my dress. I rushed down the pas- sage, through the door and straight into the arms of Mr. Rucastle, who was waiting out- side. 80, said he, smiling, ‘it was you, then. I thought it must be when I saw the door n. 12 Jam so frigutenedl' I panted. ‘**My dear young lady! My dear young lady!’ You cannot think how caressing and soothing his manner was. „And what has frightened you, my dear young lady?’ **But his voice was just a little too coax- ing. He overdid it. I was keenly on my guard against him. „was foolish enough to go „We shall be at the Copper Beeches at 7 o’clock, my friend and 1. The Rucastles will be gone by that time and Toller will, we hope, be incapable. There only remains Mrs. Toller, who might give the alarm. If you could send her into the cellar on some errand and then turn the key upon her you would facilitate matters immensely,’’ **T will doit.“ Excellent. We shall then look thoroughly into the affair. Of course there is only one feasible expla- nation. You have been brought there to personate some one and the real person is imprisonea in this chamber. That is obvi- ous. As to who this person is I have no doubt that it is the daughter, Miss Alice Rucastle, if lIremember right, who was said to have gone to America. You were chosen doubtless as resembling her in height, figure and the colorof your hair. Hers had been cut off, very possibly in some illness through which she had passed, and so, of course, yours had to be sacrificed also. By a curious chance you came upon her tresses. The man in the road was undoubt- edly some friend of hers, possibly her flance, and no doubt, as you worethe girl’s dress and were so like her, he was convinced from your laughter whenever he saw you and afterwards from your gesture, that Miss Rucastle was perfectly happy and that she no longer Gesired his attentions. The dog is let loose at night to prevent him from en- deavoring to communicate with her. 80 much is fairly clear, The most serious pointin the case is the disposition of the child.’’ What on earth has that to do with it?’’ I ejaculated, My dear Watson, you as a medical man are continually gaining light as tothe ten- dencies of achild by the study of the par- ents. Don’t you see that the converse is equally valid? I have frequently gained my first insight into the character of parents by studying their children. This child’s dispo- sition is abnormally cruel, merely for cruel- ty’s sake, and whether he derives this from his smiling father, as I suspect, or from his mother, it bodes evil for the poor girl who is in their power,’’ Jam sure you are right, Mr. Holmes,“ cried our client. ‘‘A thousand things come batk to me which make me certain that you have hitit. Oh, let us lose not an instant in bringing help to this poor creature.’’ We must be circumspect, for we are dealing witha very cunning man. We can do nothing until 70’clock. At that hour we shall be with you, and it will not be long be- fore we solve the mystery.’’ We were as good as our word, for it was just 7 when we reached the Copper Beeches, having put up our trap at a wayside public house, The group of trees, with their dark leaves shining like burnished metal in the light of the setting sun, were sufficient to mark the house, even bad Miss Hunter not been standing smiling on the door step, Have you managed it?’’ asked Holmes, A loud thudding nolse came from some- where down-stalirs. „That is Mrs. Toller in the cellar,’’ said she. Her husband lies snoring on the kitchen rug. Here are his keys, which are duplicates of Mr. Rucastle’s,’’ ‘*‘you have done well indeed!“ cried Holmes, with enthusiasm. ‘‘Now, lead the way and we shall soon beat the end of this black business. We passed up the stair, unlocked the door, followed on down a passage and found our selves in front of the barricade which Miss Hunter had described. Holmes cut the cord and removed the transverse bar. Then he tried the various keys inthe lock, but with. out success. No sound came from within and at the silence Holmes’ face clouded over. I trust that we aro not too late, said he. „think, Miss Hunter, that we had better go in without you, Now, Watson, put your shoulder to it and we shall see whether we Holmes, „„This beauty has guessed Miss Hunter’s intentions and has carried his vio - tim of,’’ gut how?’’ through the skylight, We shall soon see how he managed it!“ Heswung himself up ontothe roof. ‘‘Ah, yes,’’ he cried, ‘‘here’s the end ofa long, light ladder against the eaves. That is how he did it.“ But it is impossible, said Miss Hunter, he ladder was not there when the Rucas- tles went away. He has come back and done it. I tell you that heis a clever and dangerous man. I should not be very much surprised if this were he whose step I hear now upon the stair, Ithink, Watson, that it would be as well for you to have your pistol ready.’’ The words were hardly out of his mouth be- fore a man appeared at the door of the room, a very fat and burly man, With a heavy stick in his hand. Miss Hunter screamed and shrunk against the wall atthe sight of him, but Sherlock Holmes sprang forward and confronted him. **You villian!’ he. daughter?“ The fat man cast his eyes round and then up at the open skylight. It is for me to ask you that,’’ he shrieked. **You thieves! Sples and thieves! I have Caught you, havel? Youare in my power. I’llserve you!’’ He turned and clattered down stairs as hard as he could go. „He's gone for thedog,’’cried Miss Hunter. I have my revoiver,’’ said I. „Better close the front door,“ cried Holmes, and we all rushed down the stairs together. We had hardly reached the door when we heard the baying of a hound, and then a scream of agony, witha horrible wor- rying sound which it was dreadful to listen to. An elderly man with a red faceand shak- ing limbs came staggering out the side door. My God!“ hecried. ‘‘Someone has loosed the dog. It’s not been fed for two days. Quick, quick, or it'll be too late!’’ Holmes and I rushed out and around the angle of the house, with Toller hurrying be- hind us. There was the huge. famished brate, its black muzzle buried in Rucastle’s throat, while he writhed and screamed upon the ground. Running up, I blew its brains out and it fell over with its keen, white teeth still meeting in the great creases of his neck, With much labor we separated them and carried him, tiving, but horribly mangled, into the house. We laid him upon the draw- ing-room sofa and, dispatching the sobered Toller to bear the news to his wife, Idid what I could to relieve his pain. We were all assembled around him, when the door opened and a tall, gaunt woman entered the room, Mrs. Toller!’’ cried Miss Hunter. es, Miss. Mr. Rucastle let me out when he came back, before he went uptoyou. Ah, Miss, it is a pity you did not let me know what you were planning, for I would have told you that your pains were wasted.’’ Ha!“ said holmes, looking keenly at her. It is clear that Mrs. Toller knows more about this matter than anyone else. es, sir, I do, and I am ready enough to tell what I know. Then pray sit down and let us hear it, for there are several points on which, I must confess, that I am still in the dark.’’ **I will soon make it clear to you,“ said she, and I’d have done so before now if I could ha’ got out from the cellar. If there's police court business over this you'll remem- ber that I was the one that stood your friend, and that I was Miss Alice’s friend too. „She was never happy at home, Miss Alice wasn’t, fromthe time that her father mar- ried again. She was slighted like, and had no sayin anything; but it never really be- came bad for her until after she met Mr. Fowler at a friend’s house. As well as:I could learn Miss Alice had rights of her own by will, but she was so guiet and patient, she was, that she never said a word about them, but just left everything in Mr. Rucastie’s hands. He knew he was safe with her; Dut when there was a chance of a husband coming forward who would ask for allthat the law would give him, then her father thought it time to put a stop to it. He wanted her to sign a paper so that whether she married or not he could use her money. When she wouldn't do it, he kept on wor- rying heruntilshe got brain fever, and for six weeks was at death’s door. Then she got better at last, all worn toa shadow, and with her beautiful hair cut off; but that didn’t make nochange in her young man, and he stuck to her as true as man could be. „When Mr. Rucastle saw this he tried a new plan to break ot the courtship. He shut her up in prison; as one might say, in a room above there, where she could see none and none could see her, and my husband had to take her food up every day. Still her father couldn’t bend her will, and she would not sO much as look at the paper that he wanted herto sign. Then he brought Miss Hunter here down from London, and it’s wonderful how like those two ladies are when they are dressed up. For days, when Mr. Fowler used to come, he would see his girl, as he thought, laughing in the window, and at last she beckoned to him one day to leave her alone. Well, this nigh broke his heart, and he could make no meaning of it atall; but one day when I was out I met him in the road— and what passed between us is neither here nor there but it ended by my becoming his friend and telling im all I knew. He seemed to be a good and a very kind-hearted free- handed gentleman, and I promised him that I would serve him. It was from me that he learned that Mr. Rucastle would be away, as I thought, to-night, and it was I who made all clear for him by hiding his ladder among the bushes, and by giving my man more drink than was good for him to keep him quiet. Two hours ago Mr. Fowler got Miss Rucastle away, and I should think thatthey are both in South- ampton now, as I might have told you before if you hadn’t been so quick to lock me in the cellar.’’ Jam sure we Owe you an apology, Mrs. Toller, said Holmes, for you have certaln- ly cleared up everything which puzzled us. And here comes the country surgeon and Mrs. Kucastle, so 1 think, Watson, that we had better escort Miss Hunter back to Win- chester,as it seems to me that our ‘locus standi’ is now rathera questionable one. And thus was solved the mystery of the sinister house with the copper beeches in frontof the door. Mr. Rucastle survived, but was always a broken man, kept alive solely through the care of his devoted wife. They still live with their old servants, who probably know so much of Rucastle’s past life that he finds it difficult to part from them.

The Lovers’ Year Book-Thomas Nelson Page on the Old South and Some of Its Achievemonts—New Books Received— Literary Matters, The Erl Queen’’ is a charm ing love ro- mance, excellently translated from the Ger- man by Mrs. E. 8. Howard, The heroine is a proud little maiden lady of Altingen. She first appears as a very substantial Will-0o’- the-wisp, caught by the hero, a young naval cadet, wandering about her clover dell in night-dress and bare feet. A love springs up between the two, but in spite of this the bar · oness refuses to receive the addresses of a man without a future, and he goes away as he should, disconsolate. But honors come to him because he earns them. First a Lieuten- ant and then a Captain. Then he, too, be- comes proud and haughty, and will not re- new his suit. Pique has full sway intwo proud hearts, but love never lets go his hold, The two are brought together quite naturally, and the story ends to the satisfaction both of the lovers and the reader, It is a fresh bright romance of the old style. It engages the interest on the first page and holds it totheend, Itisa frank, unpretending love story brightly told and well sustained. No pleasanter traveling com- panion can be found than the Erl Queen,“ which should be remembered by tourists be- fore starting on their summer vacation. [The Erl Queen, by Nataly Von Esch- struth. Translated from the German by Emily 8. Howard. Worthington Co., New York.) The * - 7 second volume of the Lover's Year Book of Poetry“ consists of love poems for the second half of the year—from July to December. One poem is appropriated to each day. The collection is well made and with exquisite tact. Lovers’ needs are well understood by the compiler, whoin the two volumes looks at the subject from 866 difforent points of view, People in love or who are about to get in that interesting condition, will find much in these verses to stimulate the great passion, to refine and elevate it. The volumes are tastefully printed and bound in handy form. [The Lover's Year Book of Poetry, a col- lection of love poems for every day in the year, by Horace Parker Chandler. Vol. 2, July to December. Roberts Bras., Boston.] „ — 5 In the volume entitled The Old South,“ Thomas Nelson Page has republished a num- ber of magazine articles on that subject, in- cluding his studies of the race problem, which were so widely read at the time they ap- peared. The opening paper, which gives its title tothe book, isa lecture delivered be- fore an audience of college students, and*is not entirely free from rhetorical character- istics whichin cold type are serious blem- ishes. But Mr. Page talks because he has something to say and something worth hear- ing. He is a Southern man and fullof love for his section and State pride, but he is not blind to the logic of events. He pleads fora better understanding of the South, and makes an eloquent defense of Southern men and their motives. The historical sketch of the rise of the slave trade, the effort of Vir- ginia and other Southern States to put a stop to it will perhaps surprise many who look upon slavery asa pecullarly Southern insti- tution and which the South erected for its own selfish purposes. The studies of the negro problem are a real contribution to this perplexing question and have a permanent value to students. They should not be overlooked by any one really Gesirous of understanding what now appears to be the sphinx of American politics. [The Old south“ By Thomas Nelson Page. Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York, ] * * * In the opinion of Mr. Charles F. Lummis ‘‘railroads and Pullmans were invented to help us hurry through life and miss most of the pleasure of it.. Fired with this idea he set out to walk through life or at least across the continent. The result is, A Tramp Across the Continent. Mr. Lummis started from Cincinnati on Sept. 12, 1884, alone, and walked from that city to Los Angeles, where he arrived Feb. 1, 1885. The story he tells of his adventures is full of vigor and interest. The reader who picksit up will not lay it down until every chapter is read, for the in- terest never flags. No better comment on the book can be made than that found in the pre- face itself. ‘‘I would have this unpreten- tious book taken only for whatit is—the way- side notes of a happy vagabondizing. It was written in hurried moments dy the coal oil lamps of country hotels, the tallow dips of section-house or ranch, the smoky pine knots of the cowboy’s or the hunter’s cabin, the crackling fagots of a Mexican adobe, or the snapping greasewood of my lonely campfire upon the plains; and from that vagrant body and spirit I have not tried to over-civilize it. It is merely a truthful record of some of the ex- periences and impressions of a walk across the continent—the diary of a man wuo got outside the fences of civilization and was glad of it. It is the simple story of joy on legs. [A Tramp Across the Continent. B Charles F. Lummis. Charles Scribner’s Son’s, New York. } = * * The author of God's Image in Man““ isa very suggestive writer. He is not what 18 usually called orthodox, but on the contrary accepts the general conclusions of biblical criticism. But itis easy to see that he is in- tensely religious and reverent. There is nothing dogmatic about his words. He does not attempt to reason the reader into argu- ment with him, although when he does ap- peal to the rational faculty, itis done with great skill. The book is rather an examina- tion and display of the writer’s own moods, or as he puts it on the title pase the essays are some intuitive perceptions of truth.“ The Bible is accepted not as a fetish but as a revelation to be studied as a work of inspiration, but by no means an example of verbal inerrancy. An attempt is made to free faith from dogmatic incum- brance and let in the light of intelligence. he book is a work of self analysis, a study of e growth oi religious sentiment in the author’s own mind, and as such itis worthy of careful reading. Those who are traveling the difficult road of doubt will get much help and guidance from the experience of one who has gone the same path and reached a posi- tive resting place.

Prince gives a very clear idea of the organization of schools in Germany and the method of instruction prevailing there. The author's well known work as a member of the Massachusetts Board of Education is a sufficient arantee of the excellence of his judgment in the selection of his material. The essential featuresof the German = tems are exhibited without comment or dis. cussion. No attempt is made to give a com- plete report, but enough is presented to sug- gest further study to those interested. The methods in use in normal and high schools, private and elementary schools, are each givenaseparate chapter while the su ects —reading, language, geography and history, arithmetic and elementa Science are treated as fully as is possible in a work de- signed to be suggestive rather than exhaust - ive. The last chapter is devoted toa com- —— between German and American schools. The aim is to give important features of organization only and to confine the state- ment of method to what is best and most useful for an American teacher. The book will be very useful, however, to all who are interested in educational matters. Methods of Instruction and Organization of the Schools of Germany’’ by John T. Prince, Ph. D.

After the election of 1840 Mr. Hilliard was sent as Minister to Belgium. The account of his observations on the continent is not the least interesting or valuable portion of the book. On his return he entered Oongress and was a fellow member in the Congress of Abrabam Lincoln. The civil war is passed over briefly. In 1876 President Hayes sent him to Brazil as United States Minister. To this closing part of his career Mr. Hilliard devotes several highly interesting chapters. The volume is hardly history, but it will be found of great worth for the side lights thrown on events and for the clear and in- cisive descriptions of personal character, 1 and pen Pictures at Home and Abroad, dy 2 W.

A. K. McClure’s ‘‘Abraham Lincoln and Men of War Times. It is not a consec- utive narrative of events during the great Civil War, nor does it pretend to be a biography of Mr. Lincoln. It is rather a series of pictures of men and events. Mr, Lincoln and his relations with the other actors in the drama are the subject of Mr. McOlure’s pen. Mr. McClure enjoyed exceptional advanta- ges for getting an accurate knowledge of menand things. He wasa trusted and inti- mate friend of the President, politically speaking, and got a more than ordinarily clear sight of his political character. Ac- cording to Mr, McClure, Lincoln was no saint, but very much ofa man, with all the human weaknesses which constitute the poli- ticlan’s strength- History is indebted to Mr. McOlure for these pictures. It is a blow to the Lincoln myth so sedulously cultivated by Messrs. Necolay and Hay. According to cClure’s testimony Lincoln played a part in the vice-presidential question in 1864, which can ‘hardly be justified in the form of ideal morality. He never allowed Hamlin to know that he was not friendly to him, but all the while was scheming for another, Butler first and then Johnson. Mr. McClure’s style is always simple and unaffected. He writes unpretentiously, but with a manner which is engaging readable. does not pretend to be more and moments in the drama historical value asa record of the observa- tions ofa clear-headed, quick-witted man, who saw clearly and recorded his observa- tions without bias or prejudice.

' „What kind of an adventure did you have that makes you respect the rattlesnake?’’ asked a St. Louls man, says Teras Si/tings. „Well, one evening, just before dark, out among the Rio Grande canons, there come the all redest rain you ever seed. Before we could get out the water had risen so the only way of escape was to cross a canoa about 80 feet wide and 500 feet deep. „When we got to this canon we found about a million rattlesnakes there. They recognized me as their friend, it seemed, as I tried to keep my friend from shooting into a mound of em, for they crawled around me and looked into my face as much as to say: Nou can help us over if you will.’ I noticed that the snakes paid no attention to my chum, except a big rattler my chum wounded would look at him and then go around to his followers and seem to teil them something. „Well, I tied a Knot in the tall of a big rat- tler and then got another and looped his neck into this, and so on untill had a snake rope about sixty feet long. Then I coiled it in my hand as I would a lariat, and throwed it across, and the head snake tied himself to a tree, and the last one on my side did the same. I had my lot ofsnakes go over first, and then I went over on this snake-rope bridge, The last snake let go of the tree, and he crawled up and the others followed until all were across. My chum nad done asI did, but he let the big wounded rattler have himself made the last snake and tie himself around the tree, so when all his snakes were over and my chum was going over as I had done, that Dix wounded rattler seemed to grin—showed al bis teeth—and let go.
