But Great Britain Has Interests in Ceded Mekong Provinces. / ASETTLEMENT OF THIS QUESTION E- QUIRES FURTHER NEGOTIATIONS. Mews of the Siamese Surrender Comes From Bangkok—The Dispatch Oon- firmed by Intelligence Received at the British Foreign Offics and in Paris— Text of the Terms Proposed by France and Now Agreed to by Siam. BANGKOK, July 29.—The Slamese Govern- ment has accepted the full terms of the French ultimatam. THE BANGKOK DISPATCH CONFIRMED. Lorpor, July 298.—The Siamese Legation in this city has received a dispatch from Bangkok stating in effect that the Siamese Government, learning that France regarded its reply to the ult])matum as a refusal to grant French demands, and being desirous of maintaining peace, had wired instructions to the Siamese Minister at Paris to inform M. de Velie that Siam accepts the ultimatum | in its entirety. The dispatch adds that Siam hopes the blockade will cease; that the diplo- matic negotiations will be resumed and that an early settlement of the troubles will be effected. Lord Roseberry, Foreign Affairs, remained at his office this morning for several hours. Mr. Gladstone had concluded his presence in London now is not necessary and has gone to make his promised visit to Mr. Stewart Rendel at Hatchlands Place, near Guildford. WILL ACCEPT SIAM’S SURRENDER. Paris, July 29.—In view of the Siamese concession of all the demands made by the French, notice of which reached this city to-day, it is expected that France will witharaw the notice of the blockade. It fs also expected that France will ‘accept Siam’s surrender to her ultimatum. Itis understood that the provinces on the Upper Me-Kong River that were ceded to Siam by Great Britain will be the subject of future negotiations between France and Great Britain. TERMS DEMANDED AND AGREED TO. The substance of the French ultimatum was as follows: 1. A recognition of the rights of Annam and Cambodia on the left or eastern bank of the Me.Kong River as far north as the twen- ty-third parallel or latitude. Z. The evacuation within a month of the forts held by the Siamese on the east bank of the river. 8. Full satisfaction for various Siamese ag- gressions against French ships and French sallors on the Menam River. 4. The punishment ofthe culprits and pro- vision for the pecuniary idemnity of the victims. 8. An indemnity of 2,000,000 francs for various Gamages sustained by French sub- jects. 6. The immediate deposit of 8,000,000 francs to guarantee the payment of the fourth and fifth claims, orthe assignment of the taxes in certain districts in lieu of the deposit of 8,000,000 francs. This was sent on July 19 and forty-eight hours were allowed for Siam toanswer it. On July 21 M. Pavie, the French Minister at Bangkok, presented the ultimatum to Prince Devawongso, the Siamese Foreign Minister. Ou Jyly 28 Siam replied,stating that the King was at a loss to understand what the rights of Annam and Cambodia were on the left bank of the Mekong River. The King ex- pressed his willingness to abandon all the territories over which the existence of these rights could be proven, and callea attention tothe fact that five months previously be nad proposed to submit all the cortestea territorial questions to international arbi. tration. In the interests of peace, however, the King offered to surrender the territory as far north as the sixteenth degree of latitude, but no further, and proposed that the islands in the Me-Kong River be used in common by Siam and France. All the other points of the ultimatum were conceded. This answer was not satisfactory to France, and subsequently M. Pavie withdrew from Bangkok on a gunboat and the French war- ships inthe Menam River went to 8!-Chang, an island near the head of the Gulf of Siam, where they joined the French fleet under the gommand of Admiral Humann.

The French Government informed the British Government it would begin July 31, but the British Minister at Bangkok later informed the British Foreign Office that it bad commenced July 26.

Sr. Jonms, Halifax, July 29.—The straining ofthe relations between Great Britain and France over Siam is felt here. Rumor has it ~ YIELDS. Every Demand in the French Ul- Secretary of State for rock atthe entrance to the harbor which prevents the flagship Blake from entering at low tilde. Two French warships are on the French shore under command of Admiral La Mor- naix. The French shore question is a source of ceaseless irritation and the ill-feeling be- tween the two nationalities was aggravated by the refasal of Admiral La Mornaix to participate in the festivities in honor of the Duke of York’s wedding recently. This was construed as an insult to the Governor and to the Cleopatra’s officers. The Island of St. Pierre, south of Newfoundland, originally intended as a harbor for French fishing vessels, has been fortified and garris- oned contrary to the treaties. The begin- ning of hostilities would quickly bring the two squadrons here into collision. Stirring events are expected next week. OUTLOOK COULD NOT BE WORSE. PANAMA, July 29.—A dispatch from San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, says that it is ex- pected that Grenada, now held by the Gov- ernment troops, will capitulate before many hours. troops at Grenada is said to be serious. De- tails are not obtainable because communica- tion with the interior is interrupted. Gen. Zelaya, leader of the revolutionary forces, has occupied Masaya in addition to Managua having ken each town after hard and desperate fighting and the loss of many lives. He is besieging Grenada with co much de- termination that news of its capture may be expected at any moment. According tothe latest news from Nicaragua the outlook for the country could not be worse. FOREIGN RAIN-MAKERS. BRUSSELS, July 29.—The Independance Belge says: In view ofthe disastrous effects of the recent drought the Belgian Government is preparing on a large scale for making rain. SEVEN-STORY BUILDING FELL One of Pittsburg’s Tall Structures Grumblies te the Ground, PITTSBURG, Pa., July 29,—At 12:10 o’clock this afternoon a seven-story brick and iron building at the corner of Spring alley and Ninth street, owned by the Second National Bank, collapsed and crumbled tothe ground. About forty workmen were employed inside of the building and were eating their dinners. Some one of their number detected a trembiin of the structure and gave a shout of warning. The men all rushed for the street and yet missing and are supposed to be covered under the many tons of de- bris. The — was being rearranged for office purposes and a new three-story addi- tion in process of erection upon the old and evidently weak walls. ARRIVES IN SEPTEMBER. Archbishop Hain Has Received the Papal Bulls for His Transfer Here. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 29.—The Right Rev. J. J. Kain has visited Mgr. Sabaretti, auditorofthe Apostolic Delegation and re- ceived from him the papal bulls by which he was transferred from the Seeof Wheeling to the coadjutorship of St. Louis with the title of Archbishop of Oxyrin- chus, an ancient metropolitan see of Fay pt. Archbishop Kain was born in 1840 at Martinsburg, W. Va.,and is a graduate of St. Charles College, near Ellicott City, and St. Mary’s Seminary, Baltimore. He was consecrated Bishop of Wheeling in 1875. He left last night for Norfolk, whence he will go to Atlantic 7 leaving in September next for his new field of duty. It will surprise many to learn that the new coadjutoris a tituiararchbishop.When Arch- bishop Ryan of Philadelphia was here he was titular bishop only of Tricomia. By raising Bishop Cain to metropolitan powers he will be ready to succeed at once to the Arch- bishopric of St. Louis on his predecessor’s demise. Titular archbishops do not receive the pallium and differ only from ordinary bishops by their title. It will be good news to the Roman Catbolic clergy and laity to learn that the new coadjutor will take hold next September. Archbishop Kenrick, though at frst averse to yielding up his authority, is now anxious for Archbishop Kain’s arrival as he finds himself too feeble to perform the duties of his office. PERSONAL LIBERTY. Substance of a Radical Address by Hon. David R. Hill. Rome, N. Y., July 22.—At the picnic of the Horsegroomer Association at Sylvian Beach to-day Senator David B. Hill made an elo- quent address, his subject being ‘‘Personal Liberty.*’ He spoke in part as follows: Personal liberty, as it is generally understood, especially in its best, if net its broadest sense, means the largest measure of liberty which it is ssible to confer upon the individual citizen not injurious to the real or sub- stantial interests of the whole community. The abuse of personal liberty by the citizen is al- ways made the plausible pretext forits prohibition or restrictien. You are familiar wit the old threadbare argument: Men indulge their ap- petites to excess; thereforethe good of the com- munity requires thatthe mauufacture and tale of what they eat and drink must be prevented or re- 1 by stringent and offensive laws. t may be safely asserted, asa general rule, thata citizen may eat, drink asd wear whatever he pleas- es, and that he may sow and reap in his fields hat- eres they will grow, and that he ~y! manufac ture in his shop whatever hie sxill might invent. These are natura! rights which he possessed before gov- ernments were founded or constitutions framed, rights which he never surrendered, and rights whieh constitutions aud laws cannot justly take away. The fallacy, to a large extent, of this argument is apparent when it is reflected that the abuse of any right furnishes mo adequate reason fer its destruc- tion. How many absolute rights would be per- mitted to remain if the reasonable and jast exercise thereof at all times was the imperative condition of 8 existence? — te apt whe * — 7 8 of the press is not uentiy abused, apd yet who is reparea to 1 ore, should be abridged ? ‘he alr 16 filled with the noise of disgraceful re- ligious dissensions upon abstract questions of ortho- dox doctrine, and prosecutions or trials for alleged heresy among most respectable denominations are becoming so frequent that it is impossibie for we poor miserable sinners to determine what is heresy and whatis not; yeta total denial ofthe liberty of conscience would be tolerated in this land of boaste! religious freedom. How often is the privilege of writ of habeas corpus invoked in trivial cases The guaranty of the right of trial by jury has always been most sacredly guarded, Yer how many miscarriages of justice are believed to occur thro such proceedings. © may well conciade that no personal right of the citizen should be abolish rabridged simply because it is Hable to > here are those whose views are extreme that they would oppose the raising of hops because such production facilitates the manufacture of beer. They would prohibit or restrict tie manufactere of tobacco because foolish men and silly boys some- times smoke too much. They would curtail numer- ous innocent amusements because they are often- times carried to excess. Referring to workingmen who belong to labor organizations, Senator Hill said: The legal rights of such individuals unmquestion- ably remain the same irrespective ofthe question of such membership. They always must be accordeu the abstract legal right ef reprdiatingsuch memer- ship whenever theyso prefer, their withdrawal only oceasioning such minor forfeitures or penalties as reasonable by-laws might inflict. They cannot be compelled to act against their will. Their personal privilege cannot be jea zed. in my opinion the citadel of prrasees liberty in this country is more in danger of being undermined by the ill-considered opinions of some of ite judges. straining doubtfal polats and invoking quibbies in favor of corporate power and creating legal fictions to cripple the efforts of honest labor struggling agalnst great odds to assert ite dignity than follow Gemonstrations against arbitrary measures forced upon workingmen. The whole country is at last waking to the impropriety of making our metals merchandise of the Government itself. 60 The situation of the Government escaped save two oftheir number, Who are CLOSED ITS DOORS, The Citizens’ Savings and Loan Associa- tion at Akron Fails.

In twenty-one States there have been no failures of national banks. There have been no pational bank failures in either St. Louls, Boston, Brooklyn, Pnhila- delphia, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Washingt on, Buffalo, Cincinnati, New Orleans, San Fran- cisco, St. Paul or Minneapolis. In Chicago, New Vork and Milwaukee the failures were brought about by mismanagement, and of the banks that have gone under nine failed because they had been robbed by officials who are now under arrest.

AN IFCREASE OF THE CIRCULATING MEDIUM WANTED. — Silver Bullion in the Treasury Should Be Converted Into Money —The French Monetary System Suggested as «a Model for the United States—The Sil- ver Question. DENVER, Colo., July 29.—The Chamber of Commerce has prepared a memorial to Con- gress favoring an increase in the circulating medium of the country by the free coinage of silver produced from the mines of the United States and demanding the paying out of the money hoarded in the vaults of the National 3 The memorial claims that © jamount of legal tender cur- rency is altogether inadequate to the transaction of its business, that the re- peal of the so-called sherman law would further contract the currency, and should therefore not be done without providing an adequate substitute. The memorial asks that the Secretary of the Treasury be required to do that which he has had the discretion, but has persistently declined to dotothe great injury of the people, to coin into legal tender money and to pay out in like manner on the debts of the Govern- ment all of the silver bullion now or which may hereafter in the Treasury. The memorial protests against a continuation of the practice of the. author- ities of the bi-metallic America in copying and following monometallic En- giand in matters of finance, because Great Britain is the largest aggregate of money lenders in the world and, your constitu- ents, in developing their resources, have be- come the largest borrowers tn the world, and ause hers is an aristocratic move- ment, whose interest and object is to make money more valuable by the contraction of the currency to a gold basis, and who have little regard for the wishes of the common people who are bimetalists, while ours is a Government of the people, by the people and for the ople.’’ he memorial favors the bimetallic system in vogue in France or something akin to it.

STILL ON THE DOWN GRADE. Cash Wheat Touches the Lowest Point on Record. The decline in wheat which set in yester- day in consequence of the Chicago banks calling in their loans on wheat, continued yto-day. This was a surprise to most as it had been believed that the heavy buying de- mand would buoy up prices. But this was offset by the fact that in Chicago it was nearly impossible to negotiate New York exchange, which was at 77 discount. Those who wished to buy cash wheat were thereby prevented from doing so, with the result that prices broke in every direction. New York stocks declined sharply, owing largely to the unfavorable bank statement. St. is cash wheat declined in sympathy with Chicago, and touched the lowest point ever reached, S44ec. The buying orders were light. Some wheat was taken ex rs and millers, but eee the pur- chases were ~ 4 ers.

C., July 29.—Consul William E. Emmett at Smyrna cables the State Department that cholera exists in that port. The outbreak of the disease in this important centeronthe Mediterranean Is re- garded with much significance. United States Consuls and the officers of the Marine Hospital Service abroad will exercise re- doubled diligence in the line which has thus far been so successful in warding off or giv- ing timely notice of the spread of cholera, Smyrna is the chief commercial emporium of Western Asia. It has 8 of 160, 000 or more, of whom 80,000 are Greeks, 40, Turks, 15,000 Jews, 6,000 Armenians and 15,000 Franks. The city has been for centuries the most important center of trade in the Le- vant, dealing in many and varied staples. A copy of Consul Emmett’s dispatch was sent to Surgeon-General Wyman of the Marine Hospital Service, but Dr. Wyman decided that no action on his part was nec- essary as the United States has a report on the national sanitary condition at Constanti- nople which it will look for the safety of this country should the disease spread. ‘ihe Marine Hospital Service has also one of its surgeons stationed at Naples. ARMY AND NAVY UNION. Arrangements Being Made For the An- nual Convention in This City. Mr. Henry Shindler of Leavenworth, Kan., National Vice Commander of the Regular Army and Navy Union, is in this city to con- sult with the comrades of Col. James W, For- syth Garrison, No. 61, in relation to the com- ing annual convention ofthe National Corps to be held in this city, Sept. 20, 21 And 22, 1893. Central Turner Hall has already been secured for the holding of the sessions of the corps. The garrison has also appointed commit- tees on arrangements and hotels. The delegates to the convention come from every saction of the United States. This organization is made up of members who have been honorably discharged from the regulararmy and United States navy. Among its members can be found menof every profession. Speaking of the coming convention, Mr. Shindler said: St. Louis was always known to have a warm heart for the regular army men. The meeting of the ex-members of the service in this city in September next will, no doubt, be made ‘pleasant for them and her people’s pro- verbial hospitality extended.’’ THINK IT IS H. C. PAYNE. F. H. Taylor’s Partial Identification of a Body atthe Morgue. F. H. Taylor of Grover, Mo., a station on the Frisco road, in St. Louis County, called at the Coroner's office to-day and stated that he thought that the body of the man who dropped dead on Thurs- day in front of 112 Gratiot street,and which is now at the Morgue, is that of H. C. Payne of Webster Groves, Mo. An inquest on the body was begun to-day, but held open to ascertain the identity of the unknown. The Paynes are well known in Webster, and the deceased, if he is the man supposed to be, is a school teacher. THE EXPOSITION DISPLAY. The Fish Commission Debating on the Proper Exhibit to Make, Mr. H. M. Gorlich of St. Joseph, Mo., a member of the State Fish Commission, failed to putin appearance this morning, conse- quently at the meeting held to-day at the Laclede only two of the mem- bers were present, Chairman John T. Crisp of Kansas City and Mr. Joseph L. Griswold. The principal object of the meeting was to consult with Commissioner Griswold who has taken an interest in the exhibit to be made at the Exposition this season. He being the only member of the commission from St. Louis, this branch of the work has been largely left to his care, and from the interest he has manifest in it is safe to predict that the fish exhibit will surpass all exhibits of former years.

Uncle Sam's Older Vessele Are to Be Equipped With New Guns. From the Chicago Post. The Navy Department contemplates an im- portant change in the armament of the older vessels ofthe navy. These ships now have, with few exceptions, the old smooth-bore, muzzle-loading gun. Noneof them has a full battery of modern rifies, while some have no rifilesatall, Their broadside batteries gen- erally contain the old type, 9-inch gun, now obsolete. For range, penetration and rapid- ity of fire, smooth-bore guns are no longer valuable, and vessels ing them are necessarily inefficient for offense or defense when opposed by an armament of re- cent manufacture, It is — agent to remove the old fashioned guns from all ships and substitute in their places modern, high-pow- ered steel rifles of the breech-loading type. The older vessels will not bear the weight of the new large caliber rifies, so that the old ones removed will be succeeded by others of 2 reduced bore. Smoth-dore guns with res of 9inchesin diameter will likely be replaced by 4-inch rifies and 1l-inch bore with rifles of the 5-inch order. What a vessel loses by the change in the dimensions of bore will be more than compensated for by the great y increased range and penetration of the navy’snew guns. Ifthe gunsto go on the old vessels are of — 8 Aring type a further advantage is gained, The embarrass- ment about the matter ig the expense, guns and mounts would probably cost for each ship.

Resuming my way g the coach road leading over bold Castle Rigg into Keswick, being Gusty and travel-stained and doubtless regarded as a tramp by the hundreds of tourists passing in their gay coaches, traps, gigs and wagonettes, I saw American man- ners abroad illustrates by a millionaire American tourist, whom I recognized, toss- ing the remains ofa lunch hamper upon my head and shoulders, at which exploit his diamond-spangied brood laughed merrily and long; English manners exemplified by several *‘gentiemen whips'’ attempting to cut my shoulders or face as they dashed past; and Scotch andiIrish manners shown by a delicious old Scotchman and an equally delicious young Dublin barrister—men of account in their separate places, in their Vvacation-time really seeing the lake country ou their own legs—jogging along towards Grasmere together, contending with amiable ferocity as to which race had priority in - Britain,and both, as they met me, as valiant- ly insisting on being the first to accost me and offer me roadside consolation from their respective flasks. With these and like engaging diversions I trudged cheerily to the north up Castle Rigg. Reaching its top I turned for a farewell look towards the glorious southern scene of the lake region. On the one hand were the seem- ingly endless fells, odorous with the new blooming heath, and here and there masses of Dlue from banks of violets, a gentle Dreeze stirring the sea-like expanse ofcoloras if with riotous motion and de- light. on the other, as if some misty caul- Aron, fashioned out of a nether earth, the purple shapes and shadows of St. John’s Vale; and above it—below, within and above the clouds, monarch Helvellyn—forest- hung at its base; cleft and scarred above; still higher, striped with far descending torrents like mighty plumesof white; and its lofty broken summit and famoas ‘striding Edge’’ showing thousands of blackened almost vert- ical furrows in the eternal _ of its peaks and ridges. ‘Ifhere was one of those ravishing scenes, which can never be effaced from the mem- ory, dut a few steps over the mountain top furnished another ofequal beauty and im- pressiveness. It was perhaps an hour before sunset, and the giorious vale of Keswick or Derwentwater, a thousand feet below, came full and fair in view. Keswick gray and snug was haif hidden within its border. To the right Saddleback and Souter Fell lay, lofty billowy moors against the horizon, and the silvery threads of Greta River wound in and out of the lush meadows below. To the left and the west gieamed the upper reaches of Derwentwater with the heights of Causey Pike and Grass- moor beyond, peaks of saffron and purple in the slant rays of the sinking sun. Beyond the tower of old Crossthwaite Church, where Southey lies buried, shone the blue bed of Bassenthwaite Water. And beyond the whole lovely vale, where the farms were spread in checkered splatches of color between sinuous threads of hedge and wall, lofty Skiddaw stood monarch sublime of the Cumbrian North. On my loitering way down into the toun ! came toa quaint, little crooked-roof house, trim and neat and tidy as a chipper old woman ata pleasant fair. ‘‘Chestnut Him“ was the inscription upon the stone gate post. A huge sycamore stood sentry beside the cottage. An old serving-man was crop Ping the hedge by the gate. I stood and looked at the place fora little time, for 1 seemed to me the house must have a history. The old man, observing my own observances, paused in his toll, drew bis horny fingers slowly along the hedge-shears, and sald with an alr of proprietary superiority: an' ye ma’ weel leuk agin an’ agin, neebor.’’ I looked and looked again as bidden, but so ingiringly that the old man, resuming his hedge-clipping and clearing his throat as if for portentous announcement, condecsended to explain: *** Twas io this verra hoos malister Shelley ned wi’ t* babbey wife, laing syne. Tha pieed (played) an’ pleed, an’ niver warkid, tnt laird dreav en oot. T' beukish (book ish) folk oalas (always) ha’ nowt but plee n’ maunder’n n’ yewlment (sorrow). Tha be nowte at dowe!’’ (Fit for nothing). I thanked him for the bitter reminder ofa great truth, which carried the sad memory with it that this was indeed the veritable cottage where Shelley brought his school- girl bride, and where they chased each other like happy children about its flower beds and littie lawn, until the stern Cumbrian lang- chased them both away for lack of rent, and with this plaintive romance still in mind turned up past Greta Bridge into the qulet ‘though crowded streets of Keswick. The old Cumbrian capital clusters closely on either side of one long street which turns bruptiy at its center, and at some distance this begins to straggle away north- | Ward, countryward,to lonely and ancient 1 waite Church. Facing this street, removed within curious and often courts and closes, are centuries „ homes and inns. The shops as they stooa almost ago) as Wwoen thie region Britian, and hundreds of pack passed and repassed daily with their mountain traffic. The homes are al- most as they were in the sixteenth and sev- with their solid old protruding upper in a dream. The gay coachloads announcing by shrill bugle notes and resounding horn, their re- turn from a day’s outing in the mountains checked their vociferousness as the town- edge wasreached, and crept quietly tothe booking stations and inn- yards. The cyclists, shooting from the heights on spheres of flash and speed, dismountedand walked to their lodgings beside their gleaming wheels. The street-preachers, those windy religious blackguards of summer evenings in all English towns, held the crowds around them in respectable and subdued discourse; and even those pansy-hooded wenches of the Salvation Army, whoare gathering up the pennies of the poor in England at the rate of nearly £500,000 a year, sounded their loud timbrels in consonance with the pervading benignant spell and salaamed, pirouetted and ricocheted as though somewhat graceful in grace. Ifitcould be properly said of ten thousand folk of all degree, to the stranger Keswick town seemed in a dreamtul sort of purring ecstasy from bestowed, rather than anticipated, material and spiritual content. I noticed too, as the evening advanced, that at least half the folk upon the street held in their hands folded slips of paper, large folios like programmes, or tiny bound copies of the Gospels, their pages interspersed with pressed mountain leaves and flowers or with ribbons,each apparently at the place of some timely text. Most of these folk gradually changed the course of their various prome- nades toa common direction. After atime. partly from vagrant impulse, something from curious interest, largely because I knew not where else to go, and no little from those emotions which are always active in the wanderer’s breast from something like a homesick fervor for human companionship, even ifevery form and face you look upon have alien ties,I followed the crowds through a few squares of the compact old town. Just at its southern edge, where the green sward dipped prettily to the waterway ofthe romantic Greta stream, I at last came with the latest comers to a huge tent filled with perhaps 5,000 worshipers, then engaged in prayer. I crept into the place, secured an unoccupied settle along the tent edge some distance from the door and strove with a keenly awakened interest to comprehend the exact significance of so great a religious gathering in so remote a part of Engiand, and, with something like critical curiosity, to judge it I might the real spirit of an assem- blage, composed as could be instantly dis- covered, of representatives of widely diverg- ent faiths and creeds. Straight opposite the entrance was a broad raised platform. Its central portion was re- served for leaders and speakers, and a large wing at either side was filled with members ofthe choir. There was naught else between the benches, ranged arena-like around the frontand ends, with their occupants, and the canvas of the roof above. Plain to severity was the place of this great convoca- tion. The services, purely of prayer and praise in song, seemed equally free from the many common artifices for exciting extrane- ous interest. Nor was there in the entire evening service a single ebullition of those physical phenomena which often attend cer- tain conditions of ‘‘religious’’ excitement. I never elsewhere heard prayer in 60 softened tones. One might almost len it to a Darely audible aspiration of spiritual longing for larger peace through faith, rather than as in many similar gather- ings, a startling verbal argument with the Almighty for fallare in granting greater lung power, The hymns were from a collection called Hymns of Consecration and Faith.’’ They spoke tenderly and devotedly those two essentials tothe perfect Christian life, and those alone. It wasasthongh an unbroken and unutterable peace possessed every one of those 5,000 souls. From opening invoca- tion to closing word of blessing, there was vut one exalted, peaceful strain sweetly thrilling through every human tone—‘'I am Thine and Thou art mine!““ And then they went away with calm or glowing faces into the balmy summer night. Asthe tent was being closed, not having place to lay my head that night, 1 still sat at the tent edge on the old settle. A half dozen men and womencametome. Iattempted to explainthat Icould not secure lodging at Keswick, though quite able to pay my reck.- oning. They would not hear meout. Their hearts were attuned to the spirit of the place and the words of the service they had ut- tered. They saw me, travel-stained and housless, only with the eyes of compassion and help. Two gave mea sixpence each, another a shilling, another a thri’penny bit, with words of material and spiritual consolation for the night, the morrow and eternity. Even the old caretaker, having seen these good souls out and extinguished the last lamp, stumbled back to me with an ancient lantern in his hand and leteven his feeble light so shine that he founda huge copper penny which he pressed into my hand with the kindly admonition. **Bide ’eret’ moarn, n’I’ll let tha oot fora beet (bite) t' my ain table, Ma’t’ Laird be wi’ tha ower neet an’ oalas (always). Isankintoa dreamiless slumber, and was awakened betimes by the old caretaker. True to his word he took me to his cottage for breakfast, where with explanations I left the cgin so kindly forced upon me the previous night; and, having had the honor of being the only person ever exclusively en- tertained over night by the Keswick Conven- tion, afterI had got well settled ata com- tortable inn, where departing tourists gave me place, 1 leisurely enjoyed old Keswick tovn and itsromantic surroundings and a cursory study of the Keswick movement. These now noted Keswick conventions are simply great gatherings of English, Scotch and Irish clergymen and other Christian workers of all orthodox faiths, They are the outgrowth of meetings many years ago inthe north and west of England of local bodies of the International Evangelical Al- liance, and their influence upon the spiritual lives of individual clergymen, particularly the late Canon T. D. Hariord- Battersby, in- eum bout of st. John’s Church, Keswick, who, perhaps also aided by the gentle spell of the Lake District genii, gradually departed from Tractarian principles school, His Ute and work were those of a grand, sweet and indeed holy man, sorrow- lng for the metesand bounds of creeas sepa- rating those working for the saivation of men, and fervidly striving for complete Christian unity in essentials through realiza- tion of an exalted faith. In September, i874, was held the Oxford Convention on similar lines, it created an epochin the livesof many hundreds of be- Heving Christians, and set on foot a move- entered into ihe 5 of tanh, “ he wrote, at >) 1 . ¢ ais Mee n 9 ong n ‘hot amen +) tpl . € “eng: pita.

They have been held every year since, during the last week in July; and onthe 23d of July, 1868, their founder died here at Keswick, with thousands of these convention folk about him as his gentle spirit was lost inthe un- utteradle glow’’ and faded before faith’s vision nolselessiy.’’ These meetings continue fora week. They may be sald to differ from the American Chautauqua gatherings in the particaiars of possessing no secularly educative or divert- ing features and in the sole aspiration by at- tendants of a ‘‘resting’’ rather than a mere **setking’’ faith. Indeed the former is the keynote of every phase of effort here. Five daily services are held. All those who gather at Keswick can be seen but a few days before in the remotest places of Britain—over- worked town clergy ; lonely country parsons, devout women from merciful felds of labor, gray-haired veterans in church and mission- work and young men and women just enter- ing that battle which has no end. The cross is the one center of all teach- ing. According to the manifold in- dividuality of all who come, who are teach- ers elsewhere and learners here, every phase of the possibilities of the life of faith is pre- sented; and above all else, they are all united in the one common desire for the at- tainment ofa ‘‘resting’’ faith through per- sonal holiness. ‘‘Resting’’ indeed is your faith and mine in the devotion of men to their sacred and often thankless calling from calm and solemn scenes like these. Out of the tender heart of this lake district land of Wordsworth, Coleridge and Southey have issued countless streams of purest everliving thoughtand imagery, reaching with their beneficent influence to uttermost lands; and how fitting that in these later days from almostthe self-same source should flow as strong and pure those kindred streams of everlasting Love and Joy through Faith. EDGAR L. WAKEMAN, THOSE ELEVATORS STOPPED. Will Not Be Run Till Stairways Are Fin- ishead—World’s Fair. WorLp’'s Farr Grounps, July 29.—Having raked in a day’s receipts, less the Exposi- tion’s percentage for the carrying of passen- gers to the promenade room of the Manu- facturers’ Bullding without the authority of the Director-General or the Council of Ad- ministration, the elevator company decided to respect the peremptory order of Col. Davis this morning. Consequently there were no visitors walking on the roof and the elevator company’s staff of employes were again en- joying a period of temporary idleness. The elevator will remain locked until the iron stairways tothe roofare in position, which will be in about ten days. The condition of ex-Senator MeNausuton, New York’s executive officer at the Fair, was slightly improved this morning, but he has by no means passed the danger point. He is in astate of exhaustion and his recov- ery depends upon his constitutional ability to recover his strength. Last night Dr. Rowley called in for consultation Prof. Owens, Chief of the Exposition Medical Bureau. They found that the high fever and internal trouble had disappeared, leaving his exhaustion the chief sourse of danger. The trouble was that the Senator negiected to accept medical aid for several days. The efforts to reduce the free list tothe Fair are proving so successful that Supt. Tucker of the Department of admissions pre- dicts under the revision now taking place that at least 10,000 season passes will be cut off. People whoare conscious of their ques- tionable right to free admission have been making the most of their passes since the orders for revision and reductious were issued, the attendance from this source having jumped from 380,000 to 40,000 a day. As the order cutting off the old passes goes into effect on Aug. 1, it is expected after that date the daily free admissions will be de- creased to about 20,000. A new feature was introduced this after- noon at the weekly prize contest in Lady Aberdeen’s villa. Irish members of the Police and Fire Departments competed in running, walking, sack and wheelbarrow races. There was also the usual jig dancing for prizes. Aug. 3 there will be a change of the Creche connected with the Children’s Building. on that day the Buffalo Fitch Creche officers. who have been canducting the institution since the Fair opened will give place to the New York Day Nursery, Who will run the baby end of the show. forthe next three months.

The St. Louis real estate agents are begin- ingto discuss thethira congress of the Na- tional Real Estate Association which will be held at St. Paul, Aug. Pi, 22 and 23. At yesterday’s meeting of the Real Estate Exchange a liberal subscription was made by the agents for the purpose of having St. Louis well represented at the coming congress and a strong effort is to be have the next meeting national association held ; Louis. St. Loulg will, it is claimed, attract the largest attendance, and her claims are nat to de denied, Heretofore st. Louis has made no effort to secure the real estate congress, asthe St. Louls agents did not fee that they were pre- pared to entertain the agents and capitalists of other cities until they bada Real Estate Exchange of their own. Now that they, have one of the most com- modious inthe country they will hesitate no longer, but will set forth the claims of this city and will back them with all the influ- ence that can be brought to bear. The work of the Real Estate Congress this year promises to be very interesting and beneficialto owners and purchasers of real estate. Probably the most inter- esting committee report to be submitted to the congress will be that of the committee ona uniform system of titles, transfers and registration. This committee has recently visited New York City, Washington and other points for the purpose of investigating the methods there in vogue. They have also carefully con- sidered the merits and demerits of the various modifications of the Australian or Torrens system. ‘Shelr report will be of especial im- portance in view of its probable influence npon the logal legislation to be hereinafter enacted in each State. The hope of the National Real Estate Asso- ciation is to so change the law governing ths transfer system that real estate deeds can be bought and sold in the open market with the same facility as railroad stocks and bonds. After a house and lothave been sold, even under the New York law, it generally takes thirty days before title can be passed and the full purchase price paid. Men who are running ona close margin do notcare to hold security that it takes a month to realize on, and an army of men and millions are kept out of the real estate market as a consequence. The Committee on Allen Ownership of Land Will make an interesting report. Inis com- mittee is acting in concert with one ap- pointed by the American Bar Association, and their report is expected to be very ex- haustive., BLACK FLIES IN NEW YORK. The Pest ofthe Forests Said to Have Ap- peared in The Parks. From the New York WORLD. It has been discovered within a few days that the dreaded pest of the woods, the black Hy, has made its appearance in New York fully ready for business. Several of the voracious insects have been seen—and felt— inthe parks. Since the forests about New York fell before the settiers’ axes the black fly has been seen only at long intervals, but there are still trees enough about the city to afford homes to an uncomfortable number of the pests. In the Maine Woods, where the black fly is found In its most vicious state, black files are found from early in the spring till late inthe fall. How long New York will be af- flicted with them, if they really come at all, is a matterof conjecture. Should they ap- pear in large numbers the preparation used for protection against them by hunters and fishermen may come into use here. It is composed of oll of tar, olive oil and extract of Pennyroyal, applied externally. ‘this will keep black files, and mosquitoes as weil, ata Tespectful distance. A Romane onthe Half-£&hell.

From the French of Carl Vogt. Prof. Larg had a female hedgehog, with young ones, inclosed in a box, into which he introduced a large viper of the ordinary kind. The latter rolled itself up in an oppo- site corner, but the hedgehog seenting it, and slowly approaching without suffictent precaution, was bitten on the snout, on which a drop of blood appeared. Returning to the charge she received a second wound in the tongue. Without allowing herself to be intimidated, she seized the serpent by the body. ‘ihe two combatants became fu- rious, the hedgehog grunting and shaking herself, the viper striking again and again, and projecting himself at every fresh attack against the prickly skin of his opponent. Suddenly the hedgehog seized him by the head, and without any further sign of emotion devoured the anterior por- tion ot the serpent, then quietly returned and suckled her young. The next day the remainder of the body was consumed by ber. These experiments were many times re- peated, and always with the same result, whiie neither the mother nor her litter Were in the least degree injuriously affected in their health by this curious repast. The food of the hedgehog consists princl- pally of insects, beetles, snalis, white worms and vermin of all kinds, but particularly of mice. ifthe tedgehog had no unpleasant odors and were quieter in pursuit of prey one would certain:y prefer him to the cat as a house mouser. He makes up in cunning and patience for his want ofagiiity, and his noisy movements put to flight more mise than he destroys. in granaries and stabies, where these latter ovstacles are no objec- tion, he must surely lu time become a useful domestic animal. he mole is a creature which is still (unfor- tunately for the agriculturist) {gnorantly re- warded as the enemy of the tarmer and gar- dener. Even in this enlightened age the mule is regarded asthe destroyer of the use- fuland valuable roots of our flelds and zar dens, while it is impossible to comprehend how with teeth formed only for tearing, it tion. Besides, what the moie eats must surely be found in lis stomach. The dissec- tion of dozens of these animals by Vogt has never resuitedin the detection of vogetabie matter either in its stomach or intestines. Experiments with moles kept in confinement are equaily conclusive on this point. In tue gardens the work of the mole is cer- tainly far trom agreeabie, but the incon- venlences thus caused by the uprooting of young plants cannot be compared to the ravages of white worms or larve of the cockchafer, which survives for three years, and during the whole of its larveal state (of twenty-six months) feeds Voraciously on our most valuable euibic roots. Often we see a large portion of a whole field looking dry and faded, owing tothe ravages of these white worms on the roots, and it is these pests which are the principal food of the mole. The most superficial examination of the body of a wole will demonstrate the fact that the animal appeases its hunger by devouring a quantity of larve equal to half its own weight, and that in consequence it must de- stroy an immense number of these enemies of.agriculture and thas accomplish a hun- times more work in that direction than we could — perform. Vogt says he knows no other ectual means of success- fully combating the white worm than the protection and multiplication of the 0. Jupi er Coal. Best soft coal in this market.

From the Chicago Tribune. Oh, it was terrible! She knew that she4vas the most miserable girl on earth, that it she lived a thousand years she could never be happy again. The June sunshine flooded the apartment, thetrees waved green plumes just outside the window, thecanary in his gilded cage almost burst his little throat with melody. But sheneither saw por heard: she had leaned her elbows on the table and dropped her hot face into her hands. „He must know it by now., she sopbed, „Hal will tell him that I have accepted him, and he will go away and I will never see him agaln—I shall die, | knowl shall.’’ She got up and paced the room with long, rapid steps. The canary stopped singing and chirped to her, but she did not heed him. **Oh, how could I belleve Annie's stories?’’ she eried. I knew he loved me and only paid her a little attention totry to make nie stop flirting with Hal—lt knew It all the time, and yet I listened to her. She twisted the rose-hued ribbons of her gown nervously in her fingers; walked over tothe window and drew down the blinds to shut out the hateful sunshine. How could the day be so fair and she so un- hapoy? ‘*O,1f it wereloniy yesterday!“ she moaned, ‘*Yesterday I did not know. but Annie ram in to say that she could not stay, for Ned had asked her particularily to be at home.

The Northern giant is strong, but he is willing to use the little French- min if he finds that Johnny Crapaud has staying qualities. — — n — — “Y GALLAGHER. The most diverting spectacle within the purview of local affairs is that of Gallagher defying the municipality. Gallagher—he is not the Gallagher who let ’er go, for this Gallagher let’s nothing go—is Superintendent. of the Poor-house, by the grace of God. We say by the grace of God, because there appears to be no power less than divinity which can remove Gallagher from the Poor-house or can compel him todo otherwise than as he pleases in that office. Gallagher holds sway in his little Kingdom of Paupers, so to speak, by divine right and the force of inertia, The force of inertia seems to be Galla- gher’s chief dependence for the support of his divine right. When he was put out by the Board of Charity Commissioners he simply stayed. When the Board of Health demanded that Gallagher remove some of his pauper subjects to the Quarantine Hospital he let them stay at the Poor- house. Now that the Board of Health has ordered the dismissal of all but two of his relatives, Gallagher will not let them go, but insists that they stay. The Gallagher staying power is a rare and wonderful thing. But though we must admit the practical force of the Gallagher right to office and Gallagher inertia, we feel bound to take issue with Gallagher when he resorts to reason. He declines to dismiss relatives to the third and fourth degree because, he says, it is un-American. We are willing toadmitall the perfections which Galla- gher claims forthe Gallagher family, but we deny that nepotism is American. All the saints in the American calendar forbid it. It may work well in the case of the Gallagher family, whose lofty conception of public service and devotion to official duty make it impossible for the ties of kindred to clash with public interests; but all official families are not Gallaghers, and therefore nepotism is a dangerous prac- tice. Let Gallagher drop reason and stick to staying power which is his best hold. He is easily first there. The greatest bosses of the earth must yield him the palm of superiority. We have no doubt that it will enable him to defy mayors, boards of health and all municipal authorities and to adorn the throne of pauperdom until he is knocked out by that King who hurls his bolts with impartial hand on the palace of the great and the hovel of the lowly. — . —— —äU－ůƷẽ̃ SIAM’S WISE MOVE. The submission of Siam to all the de- mands of France, which is announced to- day, puts a new face on the Siam question, but does notend it. It merely lets Siam out of the dispute with France and throws the burden of sustaining it upon England and China, both of which claim rights in the territory demanded by France. The truth is, England and China have attempted to use little Siam as a buffer“ against French aggression. They diplo- matically refused to back Siam’s protest, and left her to cope alone with powerful France in the hope that some good fortune would intervene to save them from the ne- cessity of interference. The Siamese Gov- ernment has been shrewd enough to see this and take advantage of it at a sacri- fice only of national pride and prestige, which counts for little with a power of her class. She has surrendered to superior force, with the knowledge that her cause in large measure is the cause of England and China. She has crawled from under, leaving these two powers to reduce French claims to reasonable limits. England has reserved enough points in her communications with France for sev- eral disputes. She has weighty commer- cial and territorial interests at stake. She claims that a part of the territory de- manded by France embraces the Luang Prebang province which Burmah ceded to Siam under British direction with a pro- viso that Siam should never part with it. When Siam surrenders her rights, there- fore, the British Burmah right supervenes., The British control 938 per cent of Siam’s commerce. China hasa protest against the French demands. She claims a dependency in the Laos States, embracing both banks of the Mekong River, well south of the twenty-third parallel, which delimits the boundary of the territory France wants. France, therefore, must settle now with Great Britain and England. The outcome of the incident {s perhaps the best that could have occurred. The danger of general war from accidental clashes in hostilities between France and Siam is averted. Siam avoids a whipping and yet has a good chance of saving The question isnowin good shape for settlement by negotiation and the delim- itation of boundaries bya commission. Some war ‘*bluster’’ may be expected, but this willin all likelihood be the final result. BAITING THE BACILLUS, A real devotee of science is Dr. Robert Lincoln Watkins of New York, who has caused himself to be inoculated with the bacillus of consumption in order to prove that in persons from whose blood a pe- culiar condition is absent the consumption bacillus can work no harm whatever. That his experiment may be complete the doctor has caused a guinea pig to be inoculated with the bacillus at the same time with himeelf. 7 Though there are doctors who confi- dently believe that the result of Dr. Wat- kins’ inoculation will bea lingering death, he himself is convinced that even if the bacillus gets in some of its work he can cure himself by prompt treatment as soon ashe discovers the activity of the fatal germ. Should no results of the inocula- tion appear he will be rewarded by a fame that will carry him through the medical books of all the ages. There is a good deal of heroism in this experiment of Dr. Watkins. There are many men who have theories that they would sit yp all night toargue, but who have never thought of convincing the world by risking their own lives to prove that they are right. Such courage as this theorist has shown is deserving of the best success, and if at the end of twelve weeks Dr. Watkins is still in his usual health he will be congratulated by the entire medi- cal world, and a bit of the germ theory will have wasted away. The consumption bacillus is a fearful thing as we now be- hold him in our minds, and should he prove to be only a product of consumption there will be more or less relief among all delicate people doomed to a sedentary life. We shall watch the progress of the doc- tor’s enterprise with unflagging interest; nor shall we forget the poor pig, who might have seriously objected to martyr- dom had he been aware of the nature of the operation to which he was called upon to submit. 1 1 S 12 THE suggestion of Admiral Hornby that the Victoria disaster may have been caused by es lack of hearty co-operation on the part of Admiral Tryon’s subordinates puts a new phase on the question of responsi- bility. Bluntly stated it is hinted that the Admiral’s comrades were not un- willing to ‘‘do’’ himin his risky experi- ment. Of course it is not charged that they had any idea of causing a fatal dis- aster, but merely intended an accident which would signalize his blunder. If this is the case a verdict different from that embodied in the last words of the Vice-Admiralis needed. It was not all his fault, and conduct of the kind ascribed to his comrades deserves the severest punishment. It is prompted by a spirit fatal to the efficiency of either a naval or land force. — 2 o- —p̃x! vy THE street car mule is seeing his last days, but his services should never be forgotten. There are dull people who scoff at him, but most men recognize his past, and are willing to award him the praise he has so hardly earned, Even in his decline, however, there are triumphs for the street car mule. Where the Jefferson avenue tracks cross the Wash- ington avenue tracks a coal wagon had be- come stalled yesterday. The electrical palace of Washington avenue had at once to come to a standstill, and its royal and im- perial passengers had tosit and wait. The little mule car of Jefferson avenue jnst then came along. Did it stop? Nota bit, The driver simply gee’d his mules out on the granite andthe mule car pabséngers were carried around the obstruction and back on the track in less than half a minute. Then they looked back and laughed at the royals and imperials waiting in the electrical palace. The coal cart finally got out of the way, but not until the lightning car had been considerably delayed. ——— He awaited a car; It Came; it was crammed, He awaited another; It came; it was jammed. He awaited a thira; It came; there was space. He hopped like a bird To that car and a place Where the breeze blew in fresh And rustled his hair, And he said to himself It Was good to be there. His foresight he praised. He had wisdom on tap. But some ladies just then Got on and this chap For the rest of the way Hung down from a strap. MORAL. Of foresight ne’er prate Unless it’s divine.

From the Philadelghia Times. It is just su pension cases as those of Judge Long and Senator Manderson which have brought our pension system into public distrust. There are thousands of vet- erans who bravd@y fought for the Union and who are withédut pensions, although is need of aid tojassurea decent support for themselves and their families. All such who are in need, not caused by idleness or dissi- pation, should be generously cared for, whether they were wounded or not, or whether their physical frailties were the re- sult of military service or not; but while a millionaire sendtor like Manderson, with a salary of $5,000 per year, and a Judge like Long, with an annual salary of $7,000, ex- haust our pension money, there can be no reasonable measure of justice to the mass of the honest veterans of the war. American Exports. From the New York WORLD. The cold-blooded business of mending broken fortunes by marrying rich American girls is now a recognized industry in England. The Spectator says of the losses in speculative investments that ‘‘business goes badly for a class, that is all; and the sufferers must marry Americans, or get out of the scrape in any other less attractive way they can nd.“ Light-headed American heiresses, whose siily pride is flattered by the attentions of titled Englishmen, ought to make a note of this and ask in advance how much they will be expected to put up’’ to help the crippled speculators out of their scrape.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: There seems to be some misapprehension regarding the alms and objects of the Jour- neymen Barbers’ International Union of America. The report seems to be in circula- tion and has even been published that some of our subordinate local unions under our jurisdiction were drawing the color line. Who ever caused this report or publication done so without — author- ized and without the Knowledge of our honorable association. Any one claiming that the color line has been drawn by our as- sociation is stating a falsehood entirely foreign tothe alms and objects we have in view. Our International Union is not founded on such a narrow Dasis. We, as an organization, know no race, color or creed. Our object is to organize and educate the men of our craft and to better their condition morally, socially and finan- clally, so that they and theirs may receive the just fruits oftheirlabor. We assist those in sickness and distress, and bury the dead. Weassist the widows and orphans of our deceased members, no matter be they white or black, believing at all times that we are all God's creatures, and that we all stand on an equality, ever willing atall times to ex- tend a helping hand to every faithful mem ber of our eralt.

Besides if these rates are kept up until the fail festivities are in full blast, many who contemplate going will be content to remain at home.

A small, conical saucepan, witha long handle, large enough to nold about twotablespoonsful of water is used. The fresh roasted berry is pounded, not ground, and a dessertspoonful of it is put into the vessel, which is then almost filled with water and thrust among the em- bers. It boflsin a few seconds, is taken out and poured into a small cup. The Turkish plan is to drink the mixture, grounds and all, at once. The English adaptation of this method is to allow it to stand long enough for the grounds to settle, andthen to drink it clear. Wrapping Papers.

They are a bright lot and the visitors from the hotel on the bluffs, the cottages and the assembly grounds find many interesting ones among them. There are babies with histories in the camp on Tree View Farm. There was one of the Bethesda babies that everyone seemed to have a special fondness for. They called him Clarence. His history Was like that of most babies Bethesda has cared for. His mother was a girl who had stepped aside, who in ber trouble bad been an object of charity. Dis- charged from the charitable insti- tution when well, she had cared more fortherself than for herchild. She took it to Bethesda and frankly told the matron she wanted to abandon it.

What the Mysterious Agent Is Expected to Do for Mankind. From the New York Evening Telegram. The name of ozone has a peculiar fascina- tion for the public. Tune tract is that ozone 18 a mysterious agent, to which all sorts of marvelous properties have been attributed, and about which many fairy tales“ have been told in books and publications, some of which bear scientific repute. Another popu- lar impression is that ozone is a new product that has only lately come within the ken of scientific men. Howfar fromthe truth this belief is is shown by the fact that in a lecture now being prepared om the subject of ozone by one of the leading electrotheraputists of America, over 180 authorities are quoted, some of which date back hundreds of years. Although the virtues of ozone have occa- sionally n exaggerated there is no deny- ing thatit can render many valuable ser- vices, not only for therapeutic or sanitary urposes, but in chemistry and in several ndustries. The employment of ozone will quickly become more wee when it will be possible to compress it and sell it in cylin- ders as carbonic acid and oxygen are now sold. The commercial uses of ozone are in- numerable. It is useful in dlieaching, as it destroys organic colors, especially in wool, cotton, vegetable fiber, paper pulp, olls and ivory. Theimprovement of wines and spir- its by ogonization is now commercially ap- plied. Light wines, however, cannot be ozonized unless the operation is conducted with the greatest care, because a too long treatment gives rise to the formation of al- dehydes ard vinegar. The expense in aging and refining alcoholic liquids in this way is trifing, asa very small quantity of ozone is required, Among the physiological uses of ozone the most important is the purification and alsin- fection of air and tapestry hangings in sick roomsandinships. Inthe British Museum and several pubiic buildings in London, where large numbers of people congregate, and wherethe the miserabie arrangements for ventilation are a disgrace to a civilized community, a successful attempt has been made to render the air less poisonous by the introduction of ozone. It is more than likely, too, that as soon as the difficulties which now attend the making and applica- tion of ozone are reduced, it will be freely used in churehes and other places of worship in which whole congregations now become inattentive and sleepy, often more from the impurity of the air than from the dullness of the sermon, The time will shortly come when the drink- ing waterof the cities will be subjected to the action of ozone, by which many of the ordinary bacteria, such as those of free cholera, etc., and their spores are killed. Sewage water, or water contaminated by the refuse of works, Will also de treated by ozone, not only for the killing of bacteria ana the Jesom posing of the ammonia into its con- stituents, but for the simultaneous oxidation of all the organic substances in sus- pension. Among the legion of uses of ozone may be mentioned the manufacture of fer- ments for breweries and distiileries, and the — ration of yeast, where the expulsion of acteria leaves a pure ferment and prevents after- fermentation. —— PITTSBURG CRUSHED COKE For stove, grate or furnace, Saves 80 per cent.

When the attention of Sex- Commissioner Tanner was called to them he stated very emphatically he had never seen the alleged decisions, although he re- mained in office until Sept. 12, 1889, nor nad he ever heard of themuntil to-day. Mr. Bussy was seen and sald no sucn decisions as were referred to and quoted had ever been made from his office. suring the Tanner in- vestigation he had, on his own motion, taken upanumberof cases of pension employes, who, he believed, had been illegally in- creased and wrote out a decision in each case, They were formulated witha view to their being shownto the President and Secretary Noble as aids inthe investigation, and also with a view totheir subsequent oficial pro- mulgation if they met with their approval. They did not meet with the approval of the Secretary, who decided on another course of procedure, as indicated in his let- ter to Congress onthesubject. The cases, as written up, were signed by Mr. Bussey simply, he said, to identify them to the President. After it had been decided not to issue the decisions as prepared Gen. Bussey said he putthem in his desk, where they re- mained for many months. On one occasion he showed them to Commissioner Raum, who asked permission to take a number of them to his office and look them over at his leisure. Permission was granted, and about twenty out of fifty or sixty of them were taken away. Gen. Raum had no doudt for- gotten to return them, and sothe ‘‘secreied decisions’’ were discovered and the con- clusion instantly reached that large sums of money had been paid out contrary to the in- structions contained therein. Gen. Bussey stated with earnestness that the alleged decisions were not decisions, nor were they ever copied and promulgated as such, as was well understood by Gen. Raum and the chief officials of the Pension Bureau. CHAPLAIN OF THE HOUSE. New Tonk, July 29.—The Rev. Thos. H. Stevenson of Englewood, III., who was in the city yesterday, is the latest candidate for Chaplain of the United States House of Rep- resentatives. Mr. Stevenson is now seeking the support of the Tammany delegation in Congress. Hecalled atthe City Hall yester- day forthe purpose of seeing Mayor Gilroy, but was disappointed at being told the Mayor was on his vacation. He then started witha friend to see Richard Croker and intends to lay his arguments before all the Tammany leaders in the House that he may establish his claim to de called a New York candidate for the place. PENNY-IN-THE-SLOT GAS METERS. An Ingenious Contrivance Now Much in Favor in Large English Cities. The penny-in-the-slot principle has been applied very successfully to gas meters in several large English cities. The Liverpool Gas Co. first began the experiment of putting these machines into artisans’ houses several yearsago. In 1890 100 meters were at work in Liverpool, and from that time until now the difficulty has been to construct the machines quickly enough to sup- ply the enormous demand. In 1891 the com- pany fixed 1,975 meters; in 1892, 4,038; anda now in Liverpool alone there are between 8,000 and 9,000 automatic meters in use. Some idea of the popularity which they have at. tained may be gathered from the fact (men- tioned by the New York Frening Post) that the Liverpool Gas Co. receive on an average 100 applications a week for prepayment meters from persons who live in houses and cottages of small weekly rents. The fame ofthe new in- vention quickly spread to other large cen. ters, and at the present time rapidly in- creasing demand for them has arisen in London, Leeds, Bristol, Manchester, Birm. ingham, Blackburn, Bolton and other towns. In its latest form the meter has three dials marked !, s., and d.,“ and no sooner has a penny been dropped intothe slot than the hand of the pb!“ records it. When twelve pennies have been dropped in, the „D' dal stands at 0, while the hand or the ‘‘S’’ dial records that one shilling’s worth of pennies are in the drawer, and so on, until $100 worth of gas has been paid for. The hands can only move one way, so that the householder practically gets an undis- utable rece! pt for the pennies he puts into he slot and the total amount he has paid for his gas. An indicator shows how many feet of gas are ‘‘paid for but unconsumed.’’ Insist on getting Dr. ExXno SANDER’s Selt- ger of Ginger Ale, which is pure and whole some.

The po- lice assured Excise Commissioner Bell that the saloon was perfectly orderly. On Monday an attack will be made on the unlicensed salvons, of which there are several hundred, TRANSFERRING POLICE OFFICERS. —The shift- ing and ehangipg of the men in the Police Depart- ment which was inaugurated with the coming in of the new Poliee Board is still goingoa.

THAT FEMALE HOSPITAL WHISKY PROBLEM. — Dr. Kerley, Superintendent of the Female Hospital, hadan argument with Health Commis- sioner Homan yesterday afternoon over the whisky supply and consumption of the Female Hospital. The Superintendent stated the majority of his cases were worn out consumptives, who could get relief from no remedy, but whisk whisky used, he declared, cost oni} $2.25 a galion, while the brands used at the Poor-house and City Hospital cest respeetively $4.32 and $3.25 per gal- lon. Ifthe goods at the Female Hospital were of better quality they would reach further. The brand of Grateful Comforting And Invigorating For Weak Stomachs Weak Bowels Weak Nerves Is Sanford’s Ginger Purest and Best Of Warming Stomachics Containing among its ingredients the pus est of medicinal French brandy and the best of imported ginger, it is vastly superior to the cheap, worthless, and often dangerous gingers urged as substitutes.

They Will Be Entertained by the St. Loute Cycling Club To-Night—Track and Stable Gossip — Earl Wagner's Unqualified Nerve—Base Ball Gossip— General Sporting Mews. Harry ©. Wheeler, the Flying Jerseyite ; Peter J. Berlo, the old Manhattan Athletic Club rider and record holder; Harry Kauff- man, who cap ride anything from acart wheel to a soup plate; A. B. Rich, the Staten Island crack; C. W. Dorntage, C. M. Kluge. H. G. Croker and others of lesser note in the cycling world, reached the city this morning to take part in the races of the Cash Prize Cycling League at Sportsman’s Park to- morrow, Handicapper Wallace Merrihew arrived yesterday and set to work penalizing the men for to-morrow’s contest. The local wheelmen are ina state of fever- ish excitement over the arrival in their midst of a batch of record breakers. Even though professionals, they will be warmly welcomed and entertained by their local brethren of the amateur class. This evening all the cash prize riders will be escorted to the st. Louis Cycling Club’s camp at Barthold’s Grove, where a smoker will be given in their honor and an oppor- tunity given all the local wheelmen to meet them. It is safe to say that every Wheelman in St. Louis will be at Sportsman’s Park to-mor- row to see the record- breakers competing for cash considerations. The Cash Prize League is an organization that threatens to revolutionize cycie racing in this country. It was the outgrowth of a squabble over the amateur question that arose in the L. A. W. ranks last year. It has been an open secret thatfor years past fast amateurs have been riding wheels of certain manufacture for pay and were in the habit of selling whatever prizes they won. The L. A. W. was asked to divide the riders into two classes, one composed of amateurs and the other of riders who were virtually profession- als. The League dallied with the matter too long and.in the meanwhile the base Dall mag- nates organized the National Cycling Associ- ation. Instead of competing for prizes the men compete for money and the purity of the sport is guarded by stringent regulations. All the men who will appear at Sportsman’s Park to-morrow ar? recruits from the amateur ranks. They were, with the exception of Zimmerman, the leading riders of the year, and now that the English Riding Board has asked that Zimmerman be expelled from the International Cycling As- sociation for professionalism it is more than likely that he, too, will join the Cash Prize League. His accession will be a great boon to them. THE CYCLING CLUB’S HARD LUCK. The st. Louis Cycling Club contingent at the recent Sedalia meet, made amost ex- cellent showing, considering the coudition the men were in andthe streak of hard luck they were laboring under. Capt. Harding, the club’s crack rider, was suffering from an ulcerated tooth, which prevented him from sleeping for forty-eight hours previous to the afternoon ofthe races and necessitated the constant use of laudanum and morphine. Under the circumstances his suc- cess in winning the one mile State championship, was quite a performance. W. J. Cox, another one of theclub’s best riders, was suffering from an abscess on the base of his index Unger, which prevented him from grasping tightly the handle-bar of his machine. Sanders of the samo club was victim of the toughest piece of hard luck. In the frst race he rode his handle-bar be- came loose, in the second he was fouled, his tire blew up in the third, and in the five mile race his handle-bar became detached again, necessitating his retirement from the race. This was enough to disgust even an angel, but Sanders had to grin and bear his misfor- tune. CYCLING SUPERCEDES BASE BALL. SAW FRANCISco, July 29.—Bicycling is now the rage here, and base ball for the nonce has been forced into the background. Call- fornia has a bicycling club membership of 5,000. The Bay City Wheelmen have fitted up amagnificent five-lap track at thecost of $6,000, Being centrally located in Frisco its patronage is very large. At the L. A. V. championships many new records were made. Internal dissension in the California Base Ball League, has been the cause of their change of officials and an unremunerative season. The bicycie craze is here to stay ana the local clubs intend holding meetings by electric light. California has a wonderful cyclistin L. Fox, The Colton Fiyer.’’ He is but 16 years old, stands 5 feet oh inches, and weighs 130 pounds. He holds the two-mile champlion- ship. His fastest time for one mile is 2m. 9s. and he has ridden a quarter in 32 1-5s. THE 24-HOUR KECORD SMASHED. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 29.—Last night late Charles Petticord, a well known Pittsburg wheelman, completed a 24-hour run on his wheel, breaking the record of this country previously held by Jenkins, who recently traveled 206 quarter miles in full twenty-four hours. Between the hours of 1 o’clock yester- day morning and 1:15 last night Petticord traveled over country roads a distance of 228 miles. CYCLE CHAT. Zimmerman is expected in Chicago next Saturday and has secured comfortable quarters near the new track. Bicycle riding is the only exercisea lady can take on the streets of this city. And she can take this exercise without being escorted by a geatieman. — SMITH AND SHAW. Dame Fortune Is Not Smiling on the Western Plungers This Season. Chris Smith, the plunging owner of the famous Kendall stable, and Frank Shaw, the bookmaking magnate, the two leading plungers on the Western circuit, have not been as successful this season in their in- divicual speculations as they were last sum- mer by any means. Inthis respect they re- semble Mike Dwyer and George Smith, better known as ‘‘Pittsburg Phil,’’ the leading det- tors on the Board of Control Circuit, down East. While Dwyer has not lost much, ‘Pittsburg Phil’’ has, and quite a sum at that. The Western Smith was rightin it last season woen Yo Tambien was winniog everything in sight at Ohicago. Van Buren, Maid Marion, Dollie McCone and Ceverton also won a g por - tion of what was considered too smal to send Marian’s great daughter after for ‘*Plunger Chris“ string, which made it the largest winner onthe Western circuit. Shaw was also basking in the smiles of dame fortune, and won a big amount of money at the Fair Grounds and Washington Park. This year neither ofthe pair have startled the country with their winnbings. shaw came out ahead at this point, but dropped it at Washington Park, while Smith has hada hard road to travel from the inauguration of the regular season, last spring. There is no telling when the unexpected 18 going to hap- pen on the turf, however, and his poor luck may yet change for the better. LOCAL RACING RESULTS. Three favorites and a pair of second choices were successful at the course across the river yesterday. The winners were, Parrish Queen at (tos. Tramp ats to 8, or- rick at even money, Odrey at Sto 2 and My Partner at 8 to 2. There was no racing at South Side last night on account of the downpour. The evening's card will be run off to-night. The rain checks which were issued last night will be honored any evening at the track. TESTERDAY'’S WINNERS ELSEWHERE.

The Londos Sporting Times (the pink un) has this’ For sublime cheek—and our jockeys are not wanting in that commodity—commena us to the jockey Garrison, who rode Boundiess for the Chi- cago Derby. He says that the starter lost three spiendid opportunities ef getting the field away, but adds: ‘*I was so far in front each time that I do not know what the others were doing.’’ i — THIS IS ABLE-BODIED NERVE. Wagner, Washington’s Marnate, Wanted Dowd and Peitz for Billy Joyce. There is sucha thing as large able-bodied nerve and President Wagner of the Washing- ton club apparently has his share of it. Chris Von der Ahe has offered him every induce- ment for the release of Billy Joyce, but nothing would sult J. Earle less than Gleason and a cash bonus, but that wouldn't be con- sidered. Finally on Monday an offer of Hawley ano $800 was wired to the national capital and this answer came back: Won't do; we will it even with Dowd and Peitz for Joyce.“ When Chris recovered from the shock ‘tis said the alr was filled with vigor- ous, flowing and pointed language and he fired an answer back that must have startled Wagner. The deal for Joyce has been de- clared off. While Wagner was at it he should have asked for the whole St. Louis team. THE PITTSBURG SERIES. Jack Glasscock’s club, Pittsburg, will be here Monday for a series of championship games against the Browns. This series will be the last here till the Browns return in September, and it promises to be a corker. The Browns hopeto down this clubtwoout of three, at least. PLAYED A HEARTLESS GAME. The Browns played a listless, unenthusi- astic game yesterday and let Cleveland take victory from them after they had the game wellin hand. Inability to bat at critical times was the prime cause of their defeat, but grand-stand errors by Messrs. Crooks result. The game was void of interesting features.

Pitteburg is going crazy over the batting of its new pares Btonsel. and the general all-around work of ack Glasscock. Brouthers has yet to steal a base this year. When he does commit that act the whole base ball world will be agitated. Manager Watkings has secured Catcher Sommers ef the Nashville Cluband has all but signed Frank o Memphis and an infielder. In future the New York batteries will be paired this way: Baldwin and Doyle, Rusie and Milligan, German and Wilson, Davies and Kelly. Shortstop O' Rourke of the Louisvilles can only talk in husky tones, on account of a blow he received in the throat some time ago from a foul ball. Jimmy Pannon has a ten days’ notice in his inside ocket. Jimmy isa ball player every inch, but his njured knee may mar his usefalness forthe rest of this season. Crooks and Shugart are crowding each other hard for the error average. Ifthey would pay more at- tention te their fielding and less to their injuries they weuld give better satisfaction. ABE WILLIS’ CONQUEROR. Jim Beckett, Who Defeated the Austral- ian Bantam Champion, Now Here. The last three Australian boxers to arrive in this country are Jim Ryan, Jim Beckett and ‘‘Yankee’’ Savage. Ryan, though de- feated twice by Dan Creedon, is a good boxer and has a brilliant list of victories to his credit. He stands 5 feet 7 inches and fights as low as 154 pounds. Beckett is the amateur lightweight champion of New Zealand, and intends to make his professional debut under the Stars and Stripes. Tankee“ Savage is an American, but has been in the colonies for the past few years. He has defeated Abe Willis, now bantam champion of Australia, in twenty-three rounds; fought a draw with Jerry Marshall, and defeated many of the best bantams, Prior to his leaving he fought Bill Lewis, who, it was alleged, died from injuries he re- ceived. The next Australian steamer may be ex- pected to bring Abe Willis, Cranford, the wrestler; Tut Ryan, the crack middle- weight, and McPherson, the Australian sprinter. SMITH AFTER DEMPSEY. Joe Lewis, Billy Smith’s backer, deposited in New York $1,000 on behalf of Smith to fight any manin the world at 140 pounds, Jack Dempsey preferred, for $10,000a side. Gus Tuthill, Dempsey’s financial supporter, had a conference with Lewis regarding the mat- ter and said: I took Burge first because I thought he is easier game than you are. I will give you a chance to fight Dempsey, however, after the contest with Burge, that is if he should win. I will post $1, the latter partof this week, and will agree to make a match with you six weeks after meet - ing Burge. If Dempsey loses or if he is vic- torious and refuses to face you the $1,000 will be your property. BRITANNIA CHOSEN. The Prince of Wales’ Yacht Will Defena Against the Navahoe.

The French Market in New Orleans Dying With the Creoles. From the Philadelphia Press. The glories of the French Market in New Orleans have been told for two generations. The time has seemingly come when its re- quiem is to be sung. there in all its peculiarity ot shape and stall offerings. There are the same golden heaps of oranges from the Indian River, lemons from Messina and California, tropical grapes with their purple color so rich in them that noth- profusion and the same noisy chatter FO is no daiminu- 5 — ae The French Market is ORATION AT A. MONKEY’S GRAVE Evangelist Rounds Thought Jocko Aver- aged Up Well, Though a Born Thief. Jocko, a monkey owned bya Butte City (Mont. ) business man, died the other day and Rev. Mr. Rounds, an evangelist of that place, thought the diseased Simian worthy of a funeral oration. The Anaconda Standard quotes the reverend gentleman’s remarks as follows: God almighty gave mankind ten command- ments to show him how to live right: Jocko was never given any commandments, yet Jocko in his own way managed to average up pretty well witb the general run of mankind, even without any commandments. When Moses brought the ten commandments down from the mountain there was one com- mandment which said: Thou shalt not swear. Yet, judging from what one hears at any time up and down the street, swearing with the general of mankind has come to be considered a manly accom- lishment, and the most fantastic swearer s the most popular man. Mankind was com- manded Thou shalt not kill, yet every year murder becomes more frequent. Then there is another commandment which man- kind has revised so as to require that only women shall obey it. In these fin de siecle Gays the offense is pronounced to be no siu as far as the man is concerned. Thou shalt not covet’’ was another command ment givento man. This does not apply to any who might desire thata pack of cards should be composed of fifty-two kings and queens. God did no help Jocko along by giv- ing him any commands, so he did not know how to do right, but he seemed to do better than most people you meet. I must admit that Jocko used to steal whenever he got a chance, but he was never told by anyone not to steal, and with all his stealing he never took any more than he wanted for his own use. He never robbed widows and orphans, and he died with nothing on earth but the hair of his back. Jocko never bothered his head about whether Fred Ritchie’s monkey was a heretic or not. Not knowing himself whether he was orthodox or not, he never;wasted any time in trying to make every else be- lieve as he did except when hse was after nuts. He madeno pretentions to religion, and he was no e Jocko was not exactly civilized, but he never had to take the Keeley cure; he never smoked cigarettes; he never chewed tobacco. Jocko never ha a Bible to guide him, but he never forgot a friend, and he never betrayed a friend. His worst fault was that he was a thief, but he was born that way. He was never told by his creator notto steal, and if there isa heaven for monkeys I think Jocko is going to be close up tothe throne with a never-falil- ing supply of auts and lettuce.
