But a Fixed Parity With Gold Cannot Be Maintained in This Country Under Existing Conditions—The President Will Favor the Coinage of Silwer a Gubsidiary Coin—Chief Points of the Message to Be Delivered To- Morrow. Wasninrotor, D. O., Aug. 7.—It ts unlikely the President’s message will be sent to Con- gress to-day, but unless some hitch should occur inthe organization of either House or Senate it will probably goin at noon to- morrow. Statements as toits length and contents are necessarily more or less con- jectures. From sources believed to be well informed itis learned the message will not be more thana colnmn anda half long and thatit recommends the unconditional repeal of the Sherman act. Free-silver Demo- crats express themselves as agreeably sur- prised at what they understand to be the moderate tone of the message. They are in- formed that it recommends the wuncon- ' Gitional repeal of the Sherman act, but that it recognizes that silver is one of the money metals of this country which must be main- tained, and points out that with the present attitude of European countries the proper ratio bet ween gold and silver cannot be maintained by this country alone. Therefore it does not favor the coinage of silver under present condli- tions, except for subsidiary purposes. It ad- vances the theory that the European nations that are now depressing the price of silver can by the suppression of its coinage in this country except for subsidiary purposes be coerced into an international agreement more favorable than we have hereto- fore had. It is in favor of silver on a parity with gold and stands by the platform of 1892, but says that platform cannot be carried out for the reason that a fixed parity cannot be maintained. Prominent leaders of both wingsof the Democratic party bave had conyeyed to them the impression that these are substantially the views the President will express. Rourke Cockran of New York and Mr. Bynum of Indiana are sald to be the leaders of the anti-silver forceson the Democratic side of the House. It is stated the djstin- guished Tammany orator, at the suggestion of Mr. Cleveland himself, has devoted his spare time during the summerto the study of the question. The day before yesterday Mr. Cockran went to Mr. Culberson of Texas and Mr. Bland and said the anti-silver men were willing to start in with the discussion ofthe silver question on the second day of the session without refer- ring it or waiting for consideration or report from any committee. The underlying motive of this is said to bea fear on Mr. Cockran’s part that Speaker Crisp will give the silver mena majority of the Coinage Committee. He urged upon the silver leaders that to wait for a committee report would delay action; that it would be at least two weeks and prob- ably three before any committees would be announced. Mr. Culberson told Mr. Cockran that he would not agree to his proposition, that he believed the silver men could get their views before the country in very much better shape if they were embodied in a report of the Cotnage Committee, Mr. Cockran said he was willing to jump into the middle of the discussion at once; that he would agree there should de no closure, and every man should have his say on the subject without Interruption and that there should be a vote taken on every propo- sition. Mr. Bland also was not favorable to this proposition at the outset, and at two subse- quent consultations Mr. Cockran has had with Mr. Culberson, Mr. Bland was unable to be present, because of indisposition. They are to meet again to-day if possible. The intention is that Mr. Cockran shall at the first opportunity introduce a Dill to repea! the Sherman act outright without any con- dition or substitutes. Mr. Culberson will also introduce a bill, or some one will introduce one which will provide for the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act and will also provide for the coinage of silver without charge for mintage at the ratio of 16 to 1. The Dill, itis under stooa, in its wording, will follow as closely gs may be, sec. 7 of the Democratic platform of 1692, which favors the coinage ot both gold and silver, without discriminating against either metal or charge for mintage, but the dollar unit of coinage of both metals must be of equa! intrinsic and exchangeable value or be adjusted through international agreement or by such safeguerds as shall in- gure the maintenance of the parity of the two metals and the eqtal power of every dollar at all times in the market and in the pay- ment of debts.”’ By this means it is thought the Democratic opponents of the bill thas framed will be put before the country as opposed to their own * Accusation Against Keenan. _ Harry T.

Torexa, Kan., Aug. 7.—All efforts to bring the southeastern Kansas strike toan end have proved fruitiess, for the reason that the operators do not propose to employ any of the menwho have participated in the present trouble. Yesterday a reinforcement of negroes from Alabama reached Pittsburg. The operators are putting new men at work every day and say they will not feel the ef- fects of the strike by the end of next week. Re-employ WILL LEND IT TO THE COMPANY. EVANSVILLE, Ind., Aug. 7.—At 12:80 o’clock this morning it was learned that the Loulsville & Terre Haute firemen, brakemen, smitchmen and conductors have decided to objecttothe 10 per cent wage reduction. They are willing, however, to loan the com- pany 10 per cent of their wages. The re- sult ofthe engineers’ meeting will not be known untill later. The company, it is said, will stand firm. A DESPERATE LOT. Lima, O., Aug. 7.—A gang of fifty men took possession of East-bound passenger train No. 8, due here at 10 o’clock yesterday morn- ingonthe Pennsylvania railroad, when the train stopped at Delphos,a small station west of this city, and would not allow the train employes to molest them or put them off. They filled the coaches and defitd every- one. At the first station out a telegram was sent here to the police to meet the train, which was done, but only two of the fellows were taken, the others breaking through the ranks and escaping with eut and bruised heads. The men were workmen who were thrown out of employment by the recent financial troubles in the West, and are on their way Eastin search ofwork. They are without money and are a desperate lot. THE DENVER CHARITY CAMP. DENVER, Colo., Aug. 7.—The public charity: camp which has been maintained under military supervision at Riverfront Park for two weeks was not abandoned to-day, as had been announced, and about 400 men are still being fed and lodged in the militia tents The authorities dare not break up the camp and turn out — the citya small army of hungry men. Every effort is ane made, however, to discourage unemploye men from the mining towns from coming to Denver to feed. TIME AND WAGES REDUCED. New Tonk, Aug. 7.—A notice was posted in the round-house of the New York Central Rallroad in Mott Haven late on Saturday night announcing that after to-day the time of labor of all machinists, car repairers and yardmen would be reduced three hours a aay with a corresponding reductionin pay. The men declare that the wages of some em- — have been reduced as much as 325 per month. there, FROM TEN TO EIGHT HOURS. ForT WAYNB, Ind., Aug. 7.—A notice was posted inthe Wabash machine shops in this city this morning notifying the employes, several hundred in number, that until fur- ther advised the working hours would be re- duced from ten to eight per day. A similar notice was also sent to the shops at Spring- field, III., Moberly, Mo., and Peru, Ind. Sev- eral thousand men are involved. WILL NOT STRIKE.

INJURED BY A CAR. Mrs. Wm. Pruette in a Critical Condition —John W. Norton Sick. Mrs. William Pruette, wife of the leading man of the Spencer Opera company, is dan- gerously in at the Laclede Hotel, where the family reside.

Under a Democratie Administration Since the Days of Slavery—The Gravest Problem That Has Agitated the Public Mind for a Third of a Century to Be Soived. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 7.—The frst Democratic Congress that has assembled under a De mocratic administration since the ante-belluam days of slavery, met in extra session at the National Capitol to-day. The occasion was an impressive one, recalling as it did the political situation that has not existed for over athirdof a century, anda deep solemnity was added tothe scene bya great appreciation that the problem to be met and solved is a graver one than has agi - tated the public mind since the political forums rang with the discussion of the slay- ery question in the dark times of the 60s. An intense feeling has surely sprung up over the financial question, but the bitterness of the situation is relieved by the refiection which now seems to be in everyone’s mind, that while the silver question may be to some ex- tent a sectional one, it is not a political one, that parties are divided on it and not by it. It has its adherents and its oppo- nents in the Democratic and Republican ranks alike. All Populists are not for free coinage and all Greendackers do not en- dorse it as the best solution of the financial crisis, Members discussed the situation as they assembled in the chamber and seemed to derive much gratification from the fact that, In any event, partisanship would be subverted to calm reasoning in the long days of counsel that all feel must follow before the question is solved. Long vDefore the hour of convening mem- bers began to gather in the hall of the House, and those who had served in previous ses- sions took the seats they occupied in their former days of service. One of the first to walk down the aisle and take his seat on the Republican side was Mr. Bel- den of New York. He nodded good-naturedly to Mr. Bailey. who came a moment later, but the New York capitalist and the Texas fill- buster have no convictions in common on the silver question. Mr. Funstenof Kansas, who survived Populist fury inthe last elec- tion, entered erect and justly proud of the victory, achieved after one of the hardest fought battles in political history. He grasped the hand of Mr. Livingston of Georgia as warmly as though no impassable chasm gep- arated him from the great free-silver man of the South. Mr. Hopkins of Illinois, who enjoys the dis- tinction of being the youngest Republican member of the Ways and Means Committee, smiled as he asked Ouwhwaite if the Democ- racy would redeem its pledges and repeal the 10 per cent tax on State bank issues, and when the latter warily replied that it is a question that confronts them the Illinoisan joined in the laughter that greeted him. Aman that looks like Sol Smith Russell walked down the Republican side and jostled another man who looks as Phil Sheridan did before he began to accumulate averdupols. The man is Jerry Simpson and has shaved off his mustache and the little man is John Dalzellof Pennsylvania, who, many of his friends think, will be United States Senator. Where are the rest of you?“ shouted Brosius of Pennsylvania jocosely to Mr. Simpson, and the sage of the People’s party gravely responded that they would come sey- eral hunared strong andcontrol the House of Representatives two years henceif the other parties fail to restore silver as a money metal. A conspicuous figure on the Democratic side was Wm. Springer of Illinois. As he grasped the hand of Bryan of Nebraska, he assured the young lieutenant of Chairman Bland of free-coinage fame that there is nothing in the rumor that he (Springer) is to lose the chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee, and then congratulations fol- lowed. =. A grizzly bearded political veteran finally reached his seat on the Republican side after shaking hands with ascore of political ad- mirers. It was Joe Oannon of Illinois, who regains his seatin Congress after two years of private life enforced by the cyclone of 90. John Allen of Missouri, the only surviving private of the Confederate army, crosses over to Mr. Cannon and tells a story which illustrates that the Illinoisan may become a better man after having once passed through the cleansing fires of defeat and mortifica. ion. A robust individual with a broad breast and a stentorian voice that rings with good fellowship shouts across the house to O’Ne!iIl of Massachusetts the inquiry of whether the tarif® is still the paramount issue, and bows profoundly when the Massachusetts man responds that ‘*truth crushed to earth will rise again.“ The robust man is Julius Cazar Burrows of Michigan, who has thrice rejected Speakership honors proffered to him by Jerry Simpson of Kansasunder a pro- jected alliance ofall the silver men of the House regardless of party. George Fithian of llinols, whose shipping bill made him famous, enters the hall in an absent-minded way, but is stopped short by a colleague, who presents him to Coffee of Wyoming, the first Democratic Congressman to be elected in the great grazing State. A man crowned with all the honors that his party can give him, the caucus nomination for the gpeakership, enters from the speak - er’s lobby and isinstantly surrounded by of felicitating friends.

As he took the chair the speaker said: **REPRESENTATIVES — Profoundly grateful for this mark of confidence, I shall strive to — in some degree worthy ot it by an onest effort to discharge the duties of the office with fidelity, with courtesy and with the strictest impartiality. [Applause] Iam now ready to take the oath of office.’’ Reprepresentative O'Neill of Massachu- setts, the Father of the House, administered the oath tothe Speaker in impressive tones. » Before administering the oath to mem- ders, said the Speaker, prayer will be offered by the Chaplain of the — House. Prayer was then offered by Bl nd Chaplain Milburn, now the Chaplain of the Senate. At the conclusion of the prayer the oath of office was administered bythe 8 eaker to the members, the roll of States being called for this. purpose. When the State of Michi- gan was reached Mr. Burrows of the Re- pubDlican side arose and said: Speaker, 1 object, Mr. to the oath of office being administered to Mr. Richardson, whose name appears on the roll. It is cus- tomary in such cases for the member to etand aside for the present.’’ „„Mr. Richardson will stand aside until the conelusion of organization of the House. said the Speaker, and Mr. Richardson re- tired. After the oath had been administered to the members Mr. O’ Farrell of Virginia offerea the following: Resolved, That G. F. Richardson be now sworn in asa member from Michigan. Mr. Burrows offered the following substi- tute: Whereas, The credentials upon which Geo. F.

' MISSOURI'S REPRESENTATIVES. WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—All the Missouri Con- gressmen were in their seats when the House was called to order. Champ Clark attracted much attention, as his fame has extended everywhere, and the members and the occupants of the galleries wanted to see the future humorist of the House. It was the general remark that Clark looks like Bill Nye. Silver Dick Bland was, of course, the center of attraction as he moved about in the Senate. Vest attracts eat attention. Both the silver and anti- silver men courted Missogri’s little giant, for there is good reason for be- lieving that the unconditional repeal of the Sherman law largely depends upon the action of the Missouri Senator. fore the right 0 RECKWITH’S RESIGNATION. CHEYERNE, Wyo., Aug. 7.—It is generally understood here that Hon. A. C.

Bell, transfer agent of the Lindell Railway at Vandeventer and Finney avenues. Yesterday, about 8:80 p. m., as Mr. Bell and his father were walking south on Sarah street, near Easton, they noticed Mrs. Fitzpatrick crossing the alley between Easton and Lucky street. Just as she reached the center of the alley McGrath ang Maloney drove out ofit at a — pace. The pair had plenty of time to pull upand let the old lady get past but one ofthem struck the horse with the whip, causing him to lunge forward and Knock Mrs. Fitzpatrick down. The horse tramped herand the wheels of the dag passed over her face, chest and limbs. The pair halted long enough to glance behind and see what the had done, McGrath then hit orse with the whip just as Mr. Bell, divining his intention, grabbed the reins at the bit. One of the men ordered him to let go, and made several at- tempts to hit Mr. Bell with the but tend of the whip.

Particularly Impressed With Its Immense Undeveloped Resources. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 7.—Mgr. Satolll hasthis to say about his Western trip: The immensity of the country impressed me more than anything else, especially the great undeveloped resources of the West. Your unworked vast prairies, fruitfal val- leys, endless stretches of timber land and untold mining wealth yet undis- turbed, will afford an opportunity for usefulness to millions and millions of European emigrants. Catholics have exceedingly flourishing institutions there. Their colleges and churches are sus- tained with great liberality. The church work there partakes of the character of the poopie. active, pushing and full of vigor. **] was pleased with the religious sympathy shown everywhere we went. Everywhere, irrespective of denominations and creeds, the people received us weil. A striking feat- ure of the people is the generosity in building and supporting churches and charitable in- stitations.’’ After Mgr. Satolli’s remarks, Dr. O’Gorman spoke of the reasons that have operated for sO Warmareception in the West. He said: The cordiality shown Mer. Satolli was Goubtless largely because he has struck the American chord and appealedto American principles.’’ „Tou refer to his attitude on the school question,’’ was asked. Not only that but his ideas about unity in Americanism; that all people — here should sink their nationality. These ideas, as much as the schoo! question, have attracted public attention. As an instance of the universal show of sympathy that was mani tested, it was pleasing at Salt Lake City to receive attentions from some of the leading Mormons there. HOLY REMAINS.

CRACKS IN A COLLISION. Zimmerman and Sanger Come Together in a Smash-Up. Ciego, III., Aug. 7.—With a thousand Cycles scattered about the grass, and a hun- dred more fiying with the speed of the winds under the control of bare-legged young men about its great track, the Ohicago South Side Ball Park attracted an immense crowd to-day to witness the first day’s sport of the fourteenth an- nual meeting of the Wheelmen of the World. At the northern end of the ground, behind a row of white tents gay with flags were the cracks“ and ‘‘scorchers’’ under their trainers. The first race, one mile novice for a$50 gold watch, was won by F. Van Boreckman, finishing an easy first in 2m. 84 3-5s. Some dela the entries was experienced in getting or the half-mile champlonship to the start. This race was the biggest one one thelist. As Tuttle, Bode, Rhodes and Zimmerman came out they were loudly cheered, the slender-limbed ‘*‘Zimmy’’ re- ceiving the larger part of the cheers. They were soon in the saddle andas the starter’s pistol cracked they sured forward altogether untn the number of men could hardly be seen. When the quarter was reached, however, the black suitof Zimmerman’s shot out ahead and began to draw away fromthe bunch with a speed that provoked the audience to the wildest shouts. He finished first, with the others bunched. Time, 443-5s. The half mile handicap was won by A. J. Brown of Cleveland in 1:04. The next race was a two-mile champlon-: ship and full of favorites. As the familiar face of Sanger, Lumsden, Windle and Zimmerman came around in front of the stand, the crowd cheered lustily anda roar went up as the man got away with the two rivals, Sanger and Zimmerman, side by side in the rear. When the quarter was reached they spurted to the front and then began a terrific contest. As they cleared half the spectators were horrified to see the leader waver and fall and in an instant there was a crash as the entire bunch ran into him, Sanger s wheel struck the fence and threw him headiong over it. From the mass of twisted tires, bent handles and broken spokes, the rest of the riders crawled and limped to their quarters while the attendants 4 — up the remains of the machines and laid them ys 5 Sanger’s leg was somewhat bruised, while his ¢om- panions suffered a severe shaking up. When Sanger was picked up it was found that he was skinned from his head to his heels and was scarcely able to move afinger. A hbasty examination showed that he had broken no bones. At present it is not definitely known whether he has strained any of his muscles or his tendons, but the chances are that he has not. Aday’scare may put him rignt, but he will be a sore man for some time to come. GOLD IN THE TREASURY Rapidly Increasing and Is Now $2,201,- 395 Above Reserve Limit. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 7.—The gold in the Treasury is daily increasing. It is to-day $102, 291,895, or $2,291,895 abdve the reserve. The net balance of the Treasury, how- ever, from the Treasurer’s statement to- fay showsa decrease, attributed largely toa falling off in customs receipts. This is $15,- 789.957. The subsidiary silver is $12,698,000. So far this month the in round figures amount to the expenditures to $7,750,000, $3,000,000 have been paid on the pension These large expenditures have reduced the net balances. The fact that custom receipts are falling off, while it affects the Government reveoue from that source has an opposite bearing on the general prosperity of the country, as it shows less money is being spent abroad for imported merchandise.

It is, however, — that the ages through which the sun as been brilliant form only an incident, 80 to speak, in the infinite history of that quan- tity of matter of which thesolar system is constituted. Notwithstanding the millions or thoa- sands of millions of years for which that matter has existed, it has perhaps only once become so heated, under circamstances which we may describe as accidental or casual, as to have acquired the ample light - dispensing power of a sun. It is possible that such periods of light radiating capacity should have occurred more than once; they may possibly have occurred several times throughout the ages of times past. Nor ie it likely that the last phenomena of this kind dave yet arrived. The sun, after the lapse of uncounted years, Will lose all its heat and pass into a Diack, dark mass. In that formit may en- dure for an 0 h so protracted that the spell during which it has acted as the lumi- nary of our system will appear but a moment in comparison with the dark ages which suc- ceed the solar splendor. Bur we can conceive that the darkness, which is the doom of our system, need not necessarily be eternal so far as its materials are concerned; it may be that again in the course of its wanderings through space the tide of chance may at length bring the dark and tremendous globe so near some other orb that another collision should take place with appalling vehemence. The solid ma- terials will again become transformed intoa stupendous glowing nebula, and then, in the course of the tedious contraction of this nebula, another protracted peried of bril- liance will diversify the career of this great body and may last long enough for the evolu- tion of planets and of whole races of highly- organized creatures. The essential point for our present consideration must not be mis- understood. A little reflection will show that any periods of brilliance must be re- garded as exceptional periods in the history of each body. THE TUGS OF LIVERPOOL They Are Ocean-Going Vessels of Great Power. Frem Leisure Hours. An American skipper recently expressed the opinion that he could always find at Liverpool atugthat could pull the timbers out of his vessel or tow him home In less time than he could sailthere. Thisisa high com- pliment, and one which is well deserved, for the Liverpool tug fleetis undoubtedly the finest in the world. British tugboats by no means limit their labors now to home or even continental waters. When a steamship breaks down a tug has to be sent to tow her into port, and the same thing occurs when a vessel is disabled by a collision or dismasted in a gale. Among the recent tows may be mentioned that of the Stormcock, which took the sall- ing ship Ardencaple of 1,7000 tons from the Brazils to a home rt. The same tug has also towed the disabled steamship Sobralense from Madeira to Liverpool, a distance of 1,600 miles, in 160hours. The William Joliffe towed the steamship Reading, 2,000 tons, from Gibraltar to the Isle of Wight in a little over five days. The Jane Joliffe towed the steamship Marcottis of 8,000 tons from St. Vincent to England in the depth of winter, her dest day’s run being 155 miles. The Sara Jolliffe left Minorca with the steamship St. Danats in tow on Feb. 14. reached Gibraiter four days later and ar- rived at Cardiff’ on the 2th. The voyage from England to Minorca’ and back again with her tow only occupied twenty Cays. Another Liverpool tugboat, the Pathfinder, towed the Sindia of tons, from mh seventy - one while back three Dundee, each ound for Car- with a vessel in tow. The Blazer of Liverpool towed the Balmo- ral, of 2,000 tons. The Maulesden, of 1,500 tons, was towed by the Flying Venture of Glasgow, whilea smaller vessel, the Brab- lock, was in charge of the Columoia of Lon- don. Each vessel left Dundee at the same time, and each took the northern way, round through the stormy Pentland Firth. The first vessel to arrive at Cardiff was the Scotch tug, followed two hours later by the Blaser, while the Columbia brought up the rear at an interval of eighteen hours. Allowing for extra weight, the tirst prise in this interest- ing race must go to the Liverpool tug, which towed by far the larger Vessel. — — An Adventure With Snakes. From McClare’s Magazine. ‘*Would you like to see them in action? said Mr. Hagenbeck to me and, as he spoke, he opened a cage door and boldly stepped in among a number of dig sleepy reptiles. He coolly began lifting them = by their enor- mous colls, just as one would lift up great coils of rope, and there was soon a mighty stirring amongst the previously in- ert masses, They writhed to and fro, their scales glittering in the pale light of the winter sun, and with a great hissing, and irritated rearing back of their heads and a constant projection of their long forkea tongues, they began to move about the cage —a hideous, mixed-up mass of repulsive life, that made one involuntarily step back from the bars. ‘*You doa’t hke the looks of them, saia Mr. Hagenbeck, witha smile, as he stepped outand rejoined me. They are queer fel. lows, certainly, and gave me a big fright once.“ ‘*I shoul’ have imagined more than once, I said, as we turned from the ugly mass of twisted snakes. „Well, perhaps, said Mr. Hagenbeck, but this particular once Was something to remember.

It is evident that Mr. Smith and his wife and daughter are an exceedingly extravagant family, whose plunging in groceries and dry goods the shrewdest member of Silver Mine congregation had never suspected. Now that Mr. Smith has exposed himself there seems to be nothing for him to do but to re- tire with apologies. If so great a man as the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was not too proud to wear the cast-off breeches of his benevolent flock, how ridiculous so obscure a man as the Rev. F. A. Smith must appear when he grumbles to his peo- ple about his bread and black- berries. A more enterprising and less captious man of God than Mr. Smith would have gone out of a Sab- bath and helped himself to the roasting ears of the neighboring fields, and he would have found other ways of making ends meet after divine service. Possibly there is really a silver mine at Silver Mine, and Mr. Smith may have argued that his congregation had only toapply at the mine for what they needed, but he should have taken into account the present depression in silverand patiently waited for better times. | It may be that Mr. Smith’s congregation will forgive him, as genuine Christians are always ready to do in a case of erring pastor; but it may be set down as very sure that with many so presumptuous parsons as Mr. Smith the gospel cannot be expected to thrive in Connecticut or in frugal communities anywhere. Gorman- dizing preachers really must not be en- couraged. — m.. — rns Mr. Grorae Gobi, who is pretty clear headed, thinks that much of the present demoralization arises from the hostility to corporations. It will be corrected he thinks when the people learn that their prosperity and that of the great corpora- tions go hand in hand,’’ This is true enough, but the great corporations will have to learn it too. Any policy based upon the idea that corporations and people are necessarily antagonistic is bound to end in great loss to corporate interests, be- cause the people will not submit to their exactions forever. Mr. Gould sees the truth, but only one sideofit. The great companies have hitherto considered the productive resources of the country as theirs by right of financial might and have not shared any of their unearned ad- vantages with the people. As soon as they see the injustice of this and also recognize the inutility of injustice they will concede the popular claims. Then indeed will the prosperity of corporations and people go hand in hand. Says the Chicago Dispatch: ‘The st. Louis Exposition opens Sept. 6. World's Fair visitors who can conveniently do so should view all the sideshows before going home.“ It is just as well for Chicago people not to say too much about exposi- tions. Chicago cannot support an annual exposition, as 8t. Louis does, and her present show is largely paid for by the Government.

But in hard times like the present, then is the time for the banks to shine, because they have more inside information than any others and are therefore best able to judge as to safety.

Once upon a time, when the world was not as old as it now Is, there lived in the land of the Vikings a poor widower. He tolled early and late, yet could earn but a scanty livell- hood for himself and his son. The boy’s name was Frik,and he was so puny and stunted in his growth that he was known far and wide as little Frik. Before little Frik had live 1 many yeats he began to talk of going out into the world to seek his own fortune, His father thought this might be a good plan, and so one day he set out himself with his boy to look fora place. They went from door to door, but no one wanted the little lad until they came to the Squire. Hehad just lost his errand boy, and it was no easy matter for him to get another, as he had the name of being a miserable miser. The Squire consented at once to take little Frik. Nota word was said about pay, out Frik’s father thougnt it was better for the boy to earn his board than nothing. So he left the little fellow with the Squire, | Little Frik served the old miser faithfully for three years, and then, as there seemed to be no promise of reward, made up his mind totry his luck at some other place. The Squire gave little Frik a silver penny for each year he had served—three pennies in all. This made little Frik quite happy. He had never had so much money for his own in his whole life. Still, he thought it wise to ask if that was all. It is more than you bargained for, said the Squire. „„ Aml to have no new clothes?“ asked little Frik. ‘‘Ihave hal none since I came here, and mine are pretty ragged, as you see,.’”’ „Tou have had more than we agreed on, gaid the Squire. I Owe you noth- ing.’’ | But at last little Frik got leave to have the cook put up some lunch for bis journey. Then he started fortown to see if he could bay some clothes. Alter he had walked along way he found himself in a narrow valley that was com- pletely shut in by bigh mountains. The path leading to the uplands was step and rugged, and little Frik bad not followed it very long before he grew weary. So he sat down by the wayside to rest, and in omer to while away the time he took his pennies out of bis pocket to have a good look at them. All at once there stood before him a beggar, who was so tall and so gauntand so forlorn- looking that little Frik screamed aloud in Or fpon’t be afraid of me, my said the beggar.

Responsibility of Keeping Vigil—Dr. Prenk Temm Returns to the City and Dr, Lewis T. Fimm Takes Charge of the Medical Department of the Camp. A ride up the river in the fresh morning air was the bracer which 100 weary mothers and ailing children enjoyed on the harbor boat ‘this morning. It was in itself a most effective antidote for the ills that come of Close quarters and stifiing heat in crowded tenements ofa great city. The effect of the life-giving air of the early morning, as it Dlew into the pinched faces of the weak- 10 Mugs, was almost instant. The whimperings and wails of the infants gave place to quiet contentment and then to crowing mund the clapping of hands. Mothers who had @xpected to sit in the cabin and nurse their sobbing babies were tempted to take them out upon the dec« to get the full benefit of the glorious morning. It is a beautiful ride to which the beneficiaries of the Posr- DISPATCH excursions to the summer camp at Piasa Bilefis are treated.

THE LITTL BS ASSEMBLE. Long before the bor boat was ready to move out upon the big river the holders of Post-DisPaton tickets began to assemble, The wharf soon presented an animated scene. Mothers crowd to the outer edge and forced their passes into the hands of the ticket taker, fearful lest some unforeseen circumstance might yet rob them of their joyfully anticipated trip. Representatives ofthe Post-Disrarcn moved about among the anxious excursio nists, looking after their wants and seeing that the children Were safely transferred to the steamer and comfortably accommodated. There was only one applicant who was disappointed. She wasa German woman with three bables and a bountifully supplied basket of lunch. One of the children had a severe case of the whooping cough and it was deemed in judicious to allow to be taken among the other children lest the disease might spread and the very object of the charity be de- feated. Dr. Pim made a careful examination of the suffering child, and find- ing it u clear case of whooping cough ordered that the patient be not taken aboard. In the cabin of the steamer the scene closely resembled that presented by a hos- pital ward. Un a cot in the center was a poor woman utterly by exhaustion brought long vigils at the vod - side of her sick child during the recent heated spell. She lay in perfect abandon- ment of rest and every breath of the water- cooled atmosphere seemed to afford her inn nite relief. Her child had been taken charge of by an experienced nurse, and there was no longer any necessity for her care. The long looked- for relief had come none too soon to prevent a fatal collapse of the nervous sys- tem. The doctor thought that the change of scene, careful nursing at the camp, with perfect quiet anda lifting of the oppressive burden of care and responsibility would restore this poor mother to comparative | health. Some of her friends were present, and pronounced blessings upon the sum- mer camp for its timely interference in this most urgent case. Here and there in other parts of the cabin were groups usually composed of a mother and two or more chil- Gren, poor little sufferers who had never de- fore, perbaps, received the benefit of perfect hygienic care. In all cases where the moth. ers were too unwellto look after their off. Spring the children were properly provided for by nurses and the alert, careful physi. Cian. ARRIVAL AT PIABA.

Pr. Shore was found wandering about the Streets last night in a demented condition and taken to the Dispensary, where Dr. Jor- dan diagnosed the case as temporary insanity from sickness. At the City Hospital the docto developed a minature case of the delirium tremens and became violently insane, calling for whisky and wine. Not until then did the hospital people discover the cause of the dementia. Arter receivinga few drinks of sherry wine the reverend gentleman quieted down and went to sleep. This quite rational in his refusea to keep his clothes running around the cell in the rovided by the institution. arks he admitted ha addicted to drink in his ite, but that three weeks ago he recovered from typhoid ver an since then he had been ered to drink diti Dr, Shore lived in North Carolina and came to St. Louis two years ago from Rich Hill. He at present resides with his wife and family at 1409 Tower Grove avenue. His wife was notified of his in- carceration and state that he had been ill of late and was not addicted to the use of stimu- lants. When taken into custody he was acting in a crazy and excited manner, hoid- ing imaginary religious services. Dr. Shore is about 45 years of age and has not the ap- earance of a drinking man. He will be re eased as soon as his condition becomes such that his family can care for him safely. ATTACKED THE OFFICER. Thomas Cody Beate H‘s Father aud Then Resists Arrest. Thos.

Sullivan essayed to arrest him, where- upon the young man hit him with a piece of china, following it up with a water pitcher. When his father tried to pacify him, he was knocked down witha chair. Officer Sullivan grappled with him and in the struggie Cody tore the 3 collar and cuffs to pieces and t was only with the assistance of civilians that the tparolman succeeded in landing him in the station. Phillip Zimmerman was fined $15 by Judge Paxson for disturbing the peace of his wife, from whom he has been separated during the past six months. He went to her home at 2426 Spring avenue, and after raising a rum- us attempted to force his way into the 10use when she refused him admittance.

Catholic Clergy Have Not Heard From Eishop Kain. The Catholic clergy of the city are anx- lously awaiting the arrival of the Coadjutor, Bishop Kain, They have not heard from him and are at sea asto his intentions, Rev. Fr. Ziegler, pastor of St. Malachi’s Church, who was active in all that the priests did to ob- The would wire ker : ~ Mcva Sacred Heart Church when the time approached for his journey to St. Louis. Fr. Ziegler discodntenanced the report that Bishop Kain intended to come to St. Louls on the 15th inst. The priests are doing nothing in the way of preparing for the coadjutor’s advent, but as soon as he in- dicates his plans, they will assemble and ar- range for his reception and entertainment, The wishes and intentions of Archbishop Kenrick, as well as the desires of the coad- jutor, as to how he should be entertained, are two unknown elements which may hinder the clergy in their designs to welcome Bishop Kain as he deserves. LOOTED HIé HOUSE. Charge Made by W. J. Seever Against James K. Hardy. Jas. K.

THE UNEMPLOYED. An Army of Men Out of Work iz New York and Other Cities. New Yors, Aug. 7.~The army of unem- ployed gains accessions to its ranks daily in the cities of the kast. In New York alone it is estimated that almost 100,000 men who work at the various trades in ordinary times are now idle because there is nothing to do, Statistics obtained from fifty-seven trades in New York City show that 36,177 men are out of employment in these trades alone. These figures were obtained from organizations which keep track of the conditions of their members. They afford a startling illustra- tion of the consequences of the money stringency and business scare inthe homes of the wage-earners of the country. A particularly striking lllustration of the result of the existing depression is in the cutting down of — service by the city railroads. The elevated road has reduced its schedule list by ‘‘laying off’’ several of its morning and evening trains. This is a meas- ure of economy, dictated by the fact that the patronage of the trains run during ‘‘work- ingmen’s hours’’ has fallen off. In good seasons tue workingmen, particularly on the Third avenue, Second avenue and Ninth ave- nue lines, have given enough patronage to justify the running of trains at hours suitable to their time of going to their gery duties. With thousands now unemployed in New York this patronage has decreased to such extent that the number of trains run during ‘*workingmen’s hours“ has been reduced. A dispatch from Chicago states that fully 80,000 men are looking for employment there. From 2,000 to 4,000 men can be seen any day stretched on the aye along the lake front. Lincoln Park — ** shelters as many more. Fully 10,000 haunt the resorts just out- side the Exposition grounds, Buffalo claims to have atleast 20,000 idle men on her hands. The same conditions pre- vall in almost every city in the East, KILLED A WOMAM, Officer Cooney Hits Cora Shelby With a Bullet Intended for Another. Cora Shelby, colored, 19 years old, living at 4183 Kossuth avenue, was shot and killed by Mounted Patrolman Cooney of the Sixth Dis- trict at 3:30 o’clock yesterday morning at the residence of Monro Coker at Florence and &t. Louis avenues. Over 150 negroes were hav- ing a dance at Coker’s house Saturday night and Officers Cooney and O'Connor while rid ing by early yesterday morning endeavored to quiet the crowd, who had, they allege, become drunk and . bolsterous. Officer Cooney alleges that the negroes re- fused to disperse and he started to call the patrol wagon. Several negroes followed him and one, he avers, edarevoiver at him. Cooney whipped out bis own revolver and fired atthe fellow. Cora Shelby threw herself in front of the negro and received the bullet in the back ofthe head and died al- most instantly, Her brother, David Shelby, ran forward to where she lay and was ar- res ed. The negroes of the neighborhood said that Andrew Jackson was the name of the man who snapped a revolver at Cooney. They are very indignant atthe shooting and accuse the officers of uncalled-for interfer- ence and violence. Aninquest will be held on the remains to-morrow at 10 o'clock, David Shelby, the brother of Cora, was fined $10 by Judge Paxton to-day for disturb- ing the peace. The police claimed that he had incited the rumpus which resulted in the accidental killing of his sister. THE HALIBUT FISHERIES The Schooner Maggie E McKenzie Ar- rives Home With a Big Catch. GLOUCESTER, Mass., Aug. 7-—-The Schooner’ Maggie E. McKenzie, the first ofthe Iceland halibut fleet, has arrived bringing 170,000 pounds of halibutand 0, 00 pounds of cod fish. apt. McKenzie reports fine weather at Iceland but southwest winds and heavy rains prevailed during the spring and sum- mer, something very unusualas the nortn- east winds are usually the prevajiing ones in that season. The rass and root crops were 5 here was much sickness among the Icelanders, also among the crews of the American fish- ermen, The English, French and Norwegian cod fishermen did fairly well, and the natives Whales were plenty and the Scotch and Danish 8 Steamers did well. The Schooner Concord lost one of hercrew by the capsiz- ing ofadory. On quitting Dyrefjord the Me- Kenzie left the following vessels, which remain to complete thelr trips: Con- cord, with 100,000 pounds halibut; Mag- nolia, with 75,000 Spencer F. Baird, with 100. 000 pounds; Blue Jacket, with 75,000; A. D. Story, with 40,000 pounds: Alice ©. Jordan, with 46,000 pounds; Alurel with 90,000 pounds and Mary E., with 20.000 pounds. Owing to the scarcity of halibut ‘and the high prices prevailing at the present time the cKhenzie will probably clear the largest amount in the history of that fishery, sna Carondelet Jottings.

Their withholding of grain and other kinds of produce from the usual course of export for several months was largely the cause of the heavy drain of gold that introduced the existing troubles. Their products are going direct to Eu- rope and forcing back the gold they had driven out ofthe country, Another helpful condition has arisen out of the heavy break in securities last week. The chaace it afforded of buying our best securities at 2C to 30 per cent below their average price has brought outa steady stream of buying orders from London and other European centers. Also, it seems reasonable to anmticipate that the now prostrate condition of the 1 — speculative in- terests centering at Chicago will necessitate further large exports of grain and provisions. With these causes contributing to swell the credit side of our account with Europe, and with the current and necessary future decline in our imports diminish- ing the debit side, itis clear that we are now in the beginnings of a change in the balance of our foreign trade that can hardly fail to bring to this country a large ultimate aggregate of fold Other reliefs are also coming into play.

How to Make the Most of That Summer Vacation. From the Christian Union. If the bulk of your vacation is to be spent in the country select a site which is high and dry, witha house airy and wide-windowed. See that the shade trees stand at a respect- ful distance from the house, and that they are not so crowded_as to make a dense shade. There is a certain damp, musty dimness within certain fine (?) old country houses which should warnany would-be tenant off the premises as surely as though a placard with Dangerous!
