Snip Meager Detatls of the Disaster Re- ceived—The Scene cf the Calamity Is 102 Miles South of Memphis—The Boat Was Heavily Laden With Grain and It Ie Thought Will Prove a Total Loss— Description ot the Steamer. Mempnis, Tenn., Jan. 5.—The steamer A. Mason, en route from St. Louis to “ew rleans, heavily laden with grain, struck a ag near Friar’s Point, Miss., tast night and ent to the bottom. Oapt. George Keith of St. Louis, who was command of the Mason, was severely rt in the accident. fFriar’s Point is 102 les south of Memphis and there are almost means of getting news from there by tele rah. 80 far no details of the sinking of the boat can be learned here. A brief dispatch stating thatthe boat had gone down and that Capt. Keith was injured is all that has Deen received. It is surmised that there @ere no other casualties, or this fact would have been mentioned in the telegram. The Mason is a Kansas City boat and her crew are mostly from that city. She carried po passengers, but when she left here she was loaded deep with grain, having taken on #,000 sacks of corn at this port. Capt. Geo. G. Keith has been running the Aver for thirty years and is one of the hest- known steamboat men on the Mississippi River. He residesat 2909A Easton avenue, St. Louis. DESCRIPTION OF THE BOAT. The A, L. Mason was one of three steamers constructed by the Kansas City and St. Louls Transportation Co. and is the property of this company, of which Capt. A. L. Mason of ' Kansas City is President. The Mason, the State of Missouri and the State of Kansas were constructed at a cost of $185,000, all these boats having exactly the same tonnage and were of alike build. The Mason was put in the trade shortly after her eo am ag three years ago, and owing to the ow uge of water it took her just three weeks to make the trip between: St. Louis aed Kansar Citys ie >cin@ found that those ats were too large for the Missouri River, be Kansas and Missouri were placed in South- waters and the Mason put in the trade Detween St. Loulsand New Orleans, Capt. George Keith being chosen as her com- mander. The boat was 250 feet long and had a widthof 64 feet with hold 52. The same packet company owns the State of Kansas and the State of Missouri. The steamer Mason left St. Louis for New opeens at 2 o’clock last Friday in command of Capt. George Keith and Clerk Archie Woods with 800 tons of freight. on account of the low stage of water and being unable to run at night, she was three days making it to Cairo, lll. She left this point a heavy load. K. I. M. Mason of the Anchor Line re- coived atelegram this morning from Clerk w , informing him that the boat had ank, andthat Capt. Keith had been badly injured. lie further stated that no lives haa deen lost. As to just how Capt. Keith was hurt, Mr. Woods falls to state, and as Friars Point ts 102 miles from Memphis, and near no telegraph office, it 1s impossible to learn how badly he was in- jured. St. Louis steamboatmen are of the opinion owing tothe locality that the Mason libeatotalloss. It is not thought that the boat was insured. EPAULDING AND THE The Bishop Hes Heard Nothing of Mgr. BSatolli’s Recall. Rome, Jan. 5.—In an interview with Bishop Spaulding of Peoria, III., the latter said, referring to his audience by the Pope, that his Holiness only spoke of the affairs of his dlocese. After an exhaustive exposition of his ideas as to the Girection of diocesan affairs the Pope re- ferred to the general situation of the Cat no- ‘He Church, but did not touch upon Catholic questions in tue United States. When questioned regarding the rumors Diished in Kome tothe effect that Mgr. tolliwasabout to return from America, Bishop Spaulding said that he had heard nothing in Kome or at the YVatican which would tend to confirm such reports. Bishop Spaulding will remain in Rome for several weeks. POPE.

ANN BAILEY, AGED 76, AND HER BED WILL BE ALLOWED TO REMAIN. Dispute Between Charles P. Wonderly and the Baileys as te the Ownership of the Premises—Efforts Made by Won- derly to Secure Possession—An Old Woman Too Sick to Be Moved. A fight over a lease which has been caus- ing a great deal of interest for the specta- tors was brought to a crisis to-day when Judge Klein issued ®& peremptory writ of mandamus against Constable Miles to execute a writ of restitution for the recovery of the premises at 3334 Washington avenue. The title of the case is the State to the use of Charles P. Wonderly against James R, Miles, and behind the whole complicated proceeding is the laughable predicament of the Constable. Wonderly owned the premises some years back, but sold them to William Bauer, who made a part payment and gave notes secured by a deed of trust for the balance. He did not meet the notes and the trustee sold out the property under the deed ot trust. Wonderly bought it in, and last summer, he brought ejecyment proceed- ings against Ann and Mertha Balley, rela- tives of William Batley, who, Wonderly alleged were in possession of the house. This action was broughtin Judge Fisher’s court and judgment was obtained by Wonderly last summer, At the time that Wonderly expected to see the Sheriff put out his objectionable tenants, Margaret Balley made appearance and de- clared that she was in possession of the premises. Wonderly then brought sult against Margaret and when he ob- tained judgment Ann and Martha claimed ossession. The Sherif was in grave doubt at this stage as towho was in possession, and he refused to serve the writ. MANDAMUSED THE SHERIFF. Wonderly then applied for a man- damous to force the Sheriff to serve the writ of restitution, but the Judge refused to issue the order, because from the evidence adduced he was of opinion that Margaret Balley had the title tothe premi- ses. Wonderly then filed suit against Mar- garet Balley under the unlawful detainer act, in Justice Manning’s Court. He got judg- mont against der and on Nov. 17, 1893, an execution was issued. he paper was given to Constable Miles to serve but, according to Wonderty he refused t act. returningthe writ with the indorsement that he did not find Margaret Balley in possession. Wonderly there- upon instituted the mandamus proceed- ings to force Miles to do his duty. Testimony wastaken yesterday and the dif- ficulties with which Miles hadto contend in the discharge of hisofficeas public evictor developed. On the one hand ne been threatened by Wonderly sult on his official bond he did not serve the writ of restitution and on the other, he had been threatened by Ann and Martha Bailey with suit it ne did serve the writ because, they claimed, they had a title to the premises, independent of Margaret Baller. At the time it appeared that and his deputies spent several days in vain endeavors to read the execution to the ladies of the Bailey household. There was a wicker in the door very like the peer-bole in the portal the the lodge-rooms, and through this the Constables attempted to get service. Ontopofthese difficuities came a further one, revealed by the®%estimony of the daughter of Ann Bailey. CANNOT BE MOVED. The lady testified yesterday that her mother was 76 years old and was confined to her bed, at the point of death. If her mother was evicted, she was sure that the hardship might even cause the old lady’s death. Judge Klein took all these things into consideration and to-day he issued the peremptory writ of mandamus dtrecing Miles to put out everybody and everything in the house and restore the same to Wonderly. This writ was granted on the filling of a bond for $1,500 by Wonderly. Attorneys Christian and Wind, tin behalf of Wonderly, and Schnurmacher for Miles, put theif heads together and agreed that if Mrs. Ann Balley was as sadly off as her daughter represented it would be barbarous to evict her. They therefore ad- vised Mr. Miles to go to 8334 Washington avenue at 2 o’clock this afternoon and re- move All persons and chattels from the remises except Mrs. Aun Baller and her Constable James R.

DELEVAN, Wis., Jan. 5.—The night watch- man was overpowered last night by robbers, who entered the post-office and secured about $650in stamps.

Fights Were Genera). MADRID, Spain, Jan. 5.—The meeting of the new Municipal Council of this city yesterday ANARCHIS® VALLLANT. Preparing to Try the Man Who Threw the Bomb in the French Chamber. Paris, Jan. 5.—The jury which will decide the fate of Auguste Vaillant, the Anarchist who threw the bomb on Dec. 9 last in the Chamber of Deputies, assembled to-day in the Council Chamber of the Assizes Court and informed the Presi@ent that Maitre Labori, a distinguished advocate, had con- sented to act as counsel for the prisoner. Maitre Labori will confer with the Presi- dent of the Courtand with Vaillant to-day, but it is doubtful whether he will’ be pre- pared to commence the trial to-morrow, Consequently itis more than probable that tho case will be heard at the beginning of next week. The authorities are of the opinion that all delay in bringing the Anar- chist to trial serves to encourage his com- panions and tostrengthenthem in the im- réssion thatthe officers of the law have been alarmed at their threats to commit fur- ther outrages if Vaillant ig tried, condemned and executed. Throughout the trial the court will be care- fully gdarded,and no person will be admitted whots not clear of all suspicion of being an agent of the Anarchists. It is proposed that the trial shall open each morning at li o’clock and that the sittings of the court shall close at Co clock every evening. The general fmapression seems to be that Valliant will escape the- death semtence and that he will be imprisone life. This impression is based the fact that no lives were lost through the@explosiona.

Bringing Important News Frem Hono- lulu—Rumors at Washington. Sax FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. 5.—The United States revenue cutter m bas deen sighted eight miles out at sea. She orings late news from Honolalu. It was the Cor- win which bore to Mfnister Willis the sup- plemental instructions hich President Cleveland failed to place in the hands of Con- gress in connection with other Hawallan correspondence submitted with his mes- sage. Uniess there were special efforts to make a fast run itis probable the Corwin has been at least twelve days on the voyage, which would make the date of her departure, Dec. 24, ly two days later than the Hawallan advices received from Auckland last night. The Corwin is not a fast boat. Good sallers make the voyage from Honolulu to San Fran- Cisco in seven to nine days. WILD RUMORS AT WASHINGTON. WASHINOTON, D. C., Jan. 5.—The State De- partment is not inclined to credit the Auck- land dispatch received here yesterday by the Associated Press. Such action, it is said, is directly contrary to instructions sent by the Corwin and received by Mr. Willis on Dec. 11. There is, however, intense anxiety in Con- gressional circles, and all kindsof rumors are afloat that blood has already been spilled at Honolulu. Warrant for Horse Stealing. A warrant was issued to-day against Wm, J. Evars, an alleged horsethief, who was ar rested yesterday by Detectives Danaher and Schoppe at Twenty-second and Pine streets, charging him with the larceny of a horse and buggy Valued at $800, belonging to Charles Claas of 2201 Chouteau avenue. The horse and buggy was stolen on Dec. 16. It is al- leged that Evers drove the rig to Cuba, Mo., and traded the buggy and harness with a man named Caldt fora gold watch and chain and $5. Evers then, it is said, rode the horse to Kansas — * and it is charged, sold it at the horse exchange for $30. He then returned — St. Louis and was picked up by the detec- ves.

Mre. Perkinson Calis on the Recorder to Stop the Issuance of a License—She Destroys a Basket cf Flowers Sent to Her Daughter—What Young Fife’s Father Says About Him. Emmet Fife was 17 Sept. 16, and yet men as old as Mark Twain are less accomplishea romancers. He isa romancerof the Claude Melnotte variety. His chief friend is ajyoung Person named Smith, who paints railway coaches. Fife paints castles in the air. Mary Perkinson, who was 17 Dec. 11, was fascinated by hisart. The cards announcing their wedding would now be out but for a countermand of the order given to the Bobert Patterson Stationery Co, 406 North Fourth street. Mary Perkinson lives with her parents at 811 Bremen avenue. Her father is a laboring man. She has a brother Wo is an engineer. The children live at home, and the home is really a very cheerful and cosy place. Mary has worked for Mré. E. P. Gardner, pvro- prietress of the Oriental Laundry, 2805 North Broadway, for three years. She isa great favorite of Mrs. Gardner. A week ago Sunday Mrs. Gardner asked May to go with her and her children to the matinee at Haviin’s. MET AT THE PLAY. „While we were witnessing the play,’’ Mrs. Gardner said, May turned to me and said, **Do you see that young fellow with the black silk handkerchief? He’s been looking at meall through the play. When we went out the young fellow stood by the door and handed May a card. On it was his address and a note asking May to write. She did so out ofa spirit of mischief, and he replied. In his letter he _ said he had deen divorced. He sald that he was recently from New York. He was very wealthy, though only 22. He owned several valuable race horses. He had lost two, each worth 31,000, but grief would not bring them back to lite. However, he had plenty of money and could buy more. He wanted to be allowed to take May ta the theater. And she went nearly every night. You never met young man who could talk like that fellow. He knew all about dusiness, as he said, ana you’dthink so to hear him discuss grave business matters. 1 thought he was or 21. When he of marriage it was theught that Mamie had gota pretty good thing in the way of an easy living. She went out to his house Sun- day and met his family. It seemed he had told his family Mary was ofa wealthy fainily. and that she wore silk dresses every day. By this means he had kept his family from openly opposingthe match. They did go so far as to say that they feared both were too young and the sister told May she had seen the picture ofthe young fellow’s daivorced wife. But he'd lied to his sister just as he had to May. If you had seen Mrs. Perkinson tear up the basket of flowers Fife sent out to the laundry yesterday after- noon by that man, Smith, you’d have made up your mind the marriage is off. I think now that May, herself, realizes that she was making a mistake. Sheis a good, sensible 138 pretty enough to get a good hus- band.“ WHAT MRS. PERKINSON SAYS. Mrs. Perkinson isa woman who has had more or less of a battle raising her family and when young Fife came to her house and told about his race horses, his wealthy father and his worldly experience she wondered if it was not going to be easy to get her girla good home and a good position in so- clety. Fife came every night and once he brought Smith who offered to take Mary’s sister Jessie to the theater but Miss Jessie declined. Fife and Mary were at the theater about six times a week. My daughter told me. Fife had proposed to her to slope, said Mrs. Perkinson. ‘That set me to thinking, Ididn’t know what Kind of ason-in-law I was going to get. I went out to 3511 North Grand avenue, where Emmet’s father, Henry Fife, lives. Henry Fife is manager for the Deane Steam. Pump Oo. at 302 South Fourth street. I found the Fifes very nice people. I told them allabout our circumstances and Mrs. Fife told me theirs. We each saw a marriage was the height of folly. That boy had told me he was 22. He had badges on him and claimed he belonged to the A. O. U. W., Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias and I don’t know what otner societies, 1 sald, husband ig an A. QO U. W. He I be pleased to give you the grip, What does he do but bring a box of cigars to put Mr. Perkinson on the fright side. I asked his mother about the societies. She laughed and said the badges were aftermath of George Washington's anniversary parade. She said he fell in love with every young girl he W, Dut how he got money to go to theaters she did not know. He had told her he was paitting with Smith his friend nights, work was so rushing, and she got him his supper early. en he would come and take my — to the theater. Mfrs.

George Maruska, the ex-convict who was arrested in the Second Congregational Church on complaint of Dr. Love,the pastor, elaims to have been swindling the Congrega- tional ministers of the city for the purpose of keeping himself and his friend, Aloys Jeda, from starvation. His game was to represent himselfas an ex-candidate for the Catholic priesthood who had forsaken that faith and wished to preach the doctrines orf Congregationalism to his fellow Bohemi- ans in their native tongue. He presented a letter of recommendation from Dr. Schofield of Dallas, Tex. Dr. Love wrote to this gen- tleman, who pronounced the letter a forg- ery.

Mrs. Patrick Dinan Retells the Old Story in the Coughlin Trial. CHICAGO, Jan. 5.—Mrs. Dinan, widow of Liveryman Pat Dinan, told the jury in the Coughlin case to-day, the oft-repeated story of the white horse, which is alleged to bave taken Dr. Cronin to his death. After Mrs. Dinan was excused, Mrs. Horton, the new witness for the prosecution, was called. Judge Wing, of the defense, oojected to her testimony on the ground that he bad not been properly notified that she was to de a witness. l Judge Tuthill ruled that Mrs. Horton’s testimony sbould be heard after the other witnesses of tbe day had testified and Police Inspector Schaack was called to the stand. His testimony did not differ materially from that given at the former trial. The attorneys for the prosecution gave out during the day that they would spring a sen- sation in the testimony of Frank Bardeen of Otsego, Mich. They refused to give the nature of Bardeen’s evidence before he took the stand, but it is claimed that it would im- nlicate Coughlin in a sensational way. arjeen’s name has never before been con- nected with the case.

Search for Her Treasure—Probabiy NO Wiil—Her Nephew Tells of Some of the U'd Woman's Peculiarities—Had a Hcbbs on Dogs—Police on Guard. Quite a crowd of neighbors and curiosity seekers surrounded the house, 1611 Clark ave- nue, this morning, expecting that a search would be made for the supposed hidden treasure of Widow McGrath, who died yes- terday amid horrible surroundings. They were disappointed, however, as the search was postponed until the afternoon. Public Administrator Richardson yesterday appointed Chris Ma- grath, the nephew ofthe old lady as admin- istrator, andas soon as the proper papers are filled out he will begin the search of the premises. All night long a policeman and the old woman’s four dogs kept watch over the premises, The dogs, conscious that something had happened, lost the ferocity that attended the first attempt to invade the place by the police and became quiet. When the policeman was relieved this morning he left the dogs on watch and no one has had the courage to venture inside. The policeman who relieved him considered that the fresh air was better than the foul-smelling house and remained outside. NEW CLAIMANTS. Yesterday after the publication of the old lady’s death in the Post-Disratcn four new Cleimants for a portion of her estate came forward. The new relatives are a and three neices by the name of O’Donnell, living at 2119 Clark avenue. For several years the old lady bas refused to see them and claimed all they wanted was her money. There is no dispute as to the rola- tionship of the new claimants, who will as- sist Christopher Magrath to make the search of the premises. From all accounts Mrs. McGrath was weak minded. Wiiliam O'’Ibonnell, her nephew, who was at the house this morning but afraid to 80 in, sald: „che old lady thought everybody wanted her money. She used to tell metnatshe didn’t want any of usaround. The only person whom she would allow about was a young fellow who used to run errands for her. She was a crank on bargains and anybody could sell her any- thing if she was made to believe it was a bar- in. The dliers used to work der. ey would comeup and offer to sell her something, and if she refused they would say: Mrs. McGrath, the neighbors say you are stingy; they say you won't buy because Ou are stingy and afraid to spend money.’ then she would buy the whole load, or buy a lot of suspenders or whatever they had. She's bought stuff she hes no use for what. ever. * She was a tidy housekeeper until 1888, when herson William died andthen she took to ‘rink and didn’tcare.

New Tonk, Jan. 5.—It is neither an every- day nor an easy job to set and bandage the broken bones ofa lion’s leg. Nero, a young Numidian, of Huber’s Museum, is suffering from a broken hind leg, received inafight with an old lionness. A week ago he was taken to the New York Veterinary College and had the leg fixed up. The leg was bandaged, but not securely set. When the lion went back to the cage he pushed the bandage down over the injured leg in sucha way as to interfere with the circulation. Nero became very savage, and it was im- possible forthe doctors to remove the band- ages. It was decided to set the leg securely and thus make amputation unnecessary, But the doctors were prepared to cut off the leg. They thought gangrene had set in. The lion was ina small cageor shifting den, about & feet iu width, 4 feet high and 7 feetiong. A piece of meat about as big asa man’s fist, upon which was sprinkied three grains of morphine, mixed with some atropia, was placed in front of him. Nero regarded it with contempt. Then it was pushed away from him. He placed his heavy pawupon it and ate it greedily. He really didn’t wantit. The twenty-three pounds of beef he ate earlier in the y had destroyed his appetite. An hour later Nero was ina half unconscious state. He also appeared happy. He winked one ere na rakish and dissipated manner, and occasionally waved one paw-in the air in an uncertain way. The cage was placed upon the operating table, Which is a newand remarkable thin in itself. With remarkable presence of min two men grabbed Nero by his long, thick tail. Those holding the rope pull mightily. Nero fell down. He fastened his teeth upon a heavy iron stanchion with such force as to moke efforts to disiodge him impossible for a few minutes. Then they drew Nero back upon a fat canvas cushion and secured him. The doctors placed their instruments upon the table, took off their coats and prepared for work. They handled that lion with the freedom and the lack of respect which char- acterize their conduct toward patients upon an operating table. It was decided that the youth of the animal favored a knitting of the bone, and that am- putation would not be advisable for the 2. ＋ The bones were reset and a closely tting stocking draw over the leg. About this was wound cotton witha back- ing of wood splints drawn very tight, and firmly bound. Over this was made the plaster of paris cast. Then wood splints were placed across the bandages and firmly wrapped in lint, andthe whole was covered by axlue bandage, each fold being stuck to the one already wound. As smoothly, care- fully and as deftly was this lion’s leg band- aged as one ever saw on a man. When it was finished Nero’s leg was as solidly encased as it could be possibly. There cannot be the siightest motion of the Knee joint, or at the fracture. Layers of cotton within the plaster cast soften the points of contact. About his body a wide band was placed to hold on the bandages. When the setting was finished Nero’s broken leg was about five times larger than the other one. The operation lasted about two hours. Then the lion was returned to the little den. Either the leg felt more comfortable, or the effect ofthe drug was heavier, for he made little objection, : Nero will remain in the hospital until he is fully recovered.

Well Ren- A Megnificent Programme dere4— The Soloists. Theodore Thomas’ Chicago orchestra was heard in Music Hall last night for the first time this season. The public anxiety to see how Mr. Thomas had withstood the tribula- tions of his World's Fair engage- ment was not evidenced by a very large gathering. The audience was sparsely scattered over Music Hall and was made up entirely of the subscription members ofthe Choral Symphony Society. It is needless to add that Mr. Thomas’ hear- ers were appreciative. The great American leader—for surely that is his title by right of service and accom plishment—has not the warmth and enthusiasm that his audiences would wish. He does not attract admiration, he compels it. He is the only American artist to-day who has the calm re- pose of cilassfe perfection. Yet all Mr. Thomas’ unpopularity is traceable to this classic quietness. His work is like the dia- mond, clear, clean cut, beau- tifully brilliant, but the fire flashes are cold, there is no warmth in the stave, neither is there in Mr. Thomas. This iswhy the leader, though a profound Wagnerian, sometimes fails to adequately Satisfy in interpreting the nineteenth cen- tury master. In the classic strains of Beethoven, however, he is perfection. It would be the same with Bach. The programme opened last night with three Schubert marches, which were originally written for piano, but arranged for orchestra by Mr. Thomas. The Arrangement showed Mr. Thomas’ mastery of orchestra! detail, his devices were unique, his methods pleasing, but his material was poor. The Schubert marches are colorless trifies at bestand unsuited to orchestral de- velopment. Abbe Ligst tried it and failed, Mr. Thomas has made a clever arrangement, but the music is not satisfying. The gem of the programme was the Leo- nori overture No.8 played with absolute clarity, an exquisite refluement in shading and effect and splendid surety in the furious passage at the finale, where Mr. Thomas’ masterly leadership showed to great advan- tage. The Wagner members ‘‘Bacchaunale’’ and ‘‘Liebestod’’ are familiar and were beautifully renaered. A Tschalikowsky’ suite, fnew here, diverti- mento, Intermezzo and march miniature was gived, The march was a dainty dit in the composer’s best style, th intermezzo, an ambitious effort, full of strik- ing orchestral devices and interesting, through the composer’s efforts after orig- inality. The programme concluded with two Dvorak dances, A flat and C minor, that like everything else of the Slavonic composer,. almost but not quite gave satisfaction. Miss Ida Kiein, who appeared with the or- chestra, has a very voice of Waagnerian proportions and sings tastily. Her Dien Theure Halle’’ was splendidly accompanied. The Bach- Gounod Ave Maria“ elicited an encore to which she gave Robert Franz’ beautifull setting to Heine’s poem, Thou Art Beautiful as a Flower. with harp accompaniment. Mr. Bruno Steindel, the cellist, is an interesting per- former, a virtuoso of marvelous technique and a manner almost humorous in its studied unconcern. Me. Steindel’ssolo,a servais, **Fantasia’’ was very warmly received, The orchestra will give its last performance to-night.

There are millions of acres in that State to be had now at from §1 to $10 per acre, on 100 acres of which any industrious man could make his family comfortable and in- dependent after enduring for & few years the toll and privations incident to the making of a home on unimproved land. In a short time, at the rate all the desir- able land is being oecupied, such opportu- nities will no longer be within the reach of the poor man. A SAMSONIAN REVIVAL, Greatly te their credit, the mass of mas- culine humanity do not devote a great deal of their valuable time to running after new fashions, and they are content with few changes from year to year, Changes are bound to occur, however, even in masculine life, and it now looks as if the end of the reign of short hair among men has about come. It is belleved that long and flowing locks are to take the place of the long-popular prison cut and the ordinary moderate trimming which the conservative citizen has allowed him- self. Curiously enough, this change in the fashion is being brought about by the foot ball influence. It seems abeurd that any quiet, well behaved person should have his natural covering shaped in secordance with the tendencies of a rough, slam- banging foot. ball team, but after a man has worn his hair with the convict cut a few years he cannot be expected to be over particular about the source of any new style that may claim his attention. Possibly this profuse style which is com- ing is not wholly an offshoot ol foot ball, When Paderewski was giving his musical exhibitions in this country, and the ladies were so fascinated by his astonishing head of hair, many a man wished for a similar ornament and censured himself for his in- adequacy whenever he looked upon the wildly luxuriant Paderewskian growth. He would gladly have started the new fashion then, but he would have been laughed at, and so he made no effort. He patiently waited, and now with the ap- pearance of football, he may at last make himself as attractive as the bushiest artist or Anarchist that ever crossed the sea. There will be a little opposition to the fashion of masculine long hair. Bald men will sneer at it, and those barbers who never want to let a man off for less than 75 cents will object to it, but it will hold its own. If the ladies are pleased that will be sufficient. A GREAT STATESMAN. Mr. Richard Croker is the greatest states- man in New York and one of the greatest in the country, easily surpassing Mr. Chauncey I. Filley of St. Louis and proba- bly Col. Butler himself, although local pride forbids a public admigsion of the fact. Mr. Croker’s views on public questions are therefore highly important. For instance he is opposed to the income tax. Jam opposed, he said, to any measure that touches the revenue of the masses. Glaneing at the measure casually one might suppose that the income only of those who are receiving $4,000 and more will de taxed. Such is not the case, in fact. **Look atthe landlords inthis great city, who receive all the way from $4,000 to $50,000 and $100,000 annually in rents. Tolevy a tax on their incomes means simply an increase of rentals, which comes back directly on the Mr. Oroker is a great practical political leader, but these expressions show that he is doing something in the way of theoretical statesmanship. He wants to expound great economic doctrines,and, like a brave man, tackles the most difficult questions. In the passage quoted he demolishes every economist from Adam Smith and Ricardo to John Mill and Henry George, but that only shows how great a man he is. Mr. Croker’s example should be fol- lowed by other practical statesmen. It would add so much to the gayety of the nation. Forinstance Col. Edward Butler should tell what he thinks of ad valorem and specific duties, bimetallism, the coin- age of the seigniorage, and other great problems. His views on such subjects would be a substantial contribution to the joy of life equal perhaps to those set forth by Mr. Croker himself. Ir is reported from Birmingham, Ala., where much of the noise against tariff ro- duction has been made, that since the an- nouncement of the new tariff bill there has been a healthy revival among the indus: tries of North Alabama. In the Perkin ore mine 600 men have resumed work, 4 furnace at Florence will resume next week and the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railrosd Co. are about to blow in four more iron furnaces. Evidently the South is nots? badly frightened as some people have sup- posed.

ELLA WHEELER WILCOX declares that the kiss upon the lips can never be abolished by fashion or science while hearts beat, veins tingle and pulses throb with love’s fire. Whata describer Ella is, tobe sure? She is the most ‘‘yumyum’’ writer on osculation that now puts pente paper. Fashion and science both fall back in the presence of Ella, and Northern lake ice flows away in a brook- lot from her warm atmosphere. THE proprietor of the Sedalia Opera-house not only sought to reach Editor Goodwin’s inferior carotid triangle, but bumped the editor’s head on the sidewalk and kicked him when he was down. Dramatic criticism will scarcely flourish in Sedalia under such condi - tions as these. The opera-house man is for- tunate in having so forbearing an antagonist as the Bazoo editor. ‘ A BARREN result of protract ed meditation His head it was bare; It had scarcely a hair; And some folks suspected his wife. But the bare hadn’t come As it does come to some: He’d been. thinking too much on this life. Jon D. Fortan, the 24-year-old brother of the woman who is suing Col. Breckin- ridge, did all in his power to persuade her not to bring the suit. It is thought he has no intention of attempting any violence against Col. Breckinridge, and that he will be satis- fled if the silver-tongued statesman is retired from politics. - = lll SECRETARY MorTOoN having advised the farmers to read Adam Smith,the farmers ad- vise Secretary Morton to read the Bible.

They will probably have to teach themselves this scheme. It is scarcely to be learned from the masculine electors. 8 A PATROL wagon with several policemen got lost in Louisville the other night, and some kindly citizens showed them the way. Perhaps policemen would know more of their towns if tax-payers would turn out and give them a start in learning the streets. - — Ir is reported that a Georgia young man, of whom it has been said that he is not so much of a fool as he seems, is going on to New York to join the 400. No doubt a hearty welcome awaits this young Georgian in that pleasant social circle. _- A PEDAL expert says that the Western foot is longer, larger, flatter and more aggres- sive than thatof the East.

From the Boston Post. „If this Wilson bill should become a law,’’ says the manager of an Alabama iron con- cern, 'the foreign producers would ship 100,000 tons of cheap pig-iIron to New York and Boston, immediately glutting the mar- kets of the East. And what a welcome ‘*giut’’ it would del How the fires would roaragainin the old furnaces, the closed gates of the mills swing open again,the de- serted shops be thronged with workmen now idle! With such a ‘‘glut’’ the Cambridge Rolling Mills, the South Boston Jron Works, the Nor- way Iron and Steel Works—all the industries here in Boston that have been killed by McKin eyism—would come to life. Their hundreds of workmen would find employ- ment again at good wages, and commerce and trade would feel the impulse from the retall grocerto the great steamship lines. By all means pass the Wilson bill and give our market a ‘‘giut’’ of the raw material of industry. The quicker the better. A Penitent. From the New Yerk Evening Post. At last we have evidence that McKinley did learn something, afterall, fromthe terrible beating his party got under his leadership in 1890 and 1892. In his message to the Ohio Legislature on Monday he warned the ma- jority that it would de held by the people to the strictest accountability. He said: It should keep the expenses safely within the revenues,’’ evidently having in mind the awful blunder he and his party made in Con- gress in bankrupting the Treasury. ‘‘There should be no increasein the rate of taxa- tion, he added, as though to say, Take warning by me and my bill and avoid the fate that overtook me.’’ The Governor’s formal inauguration will not occur untill next week, when, it is reported, he will take occasion to Geliver himself on national politics. We shall hope to see him then draw further les. sons of reproof and repentance from his own experience. A Story of John Moses. From the Chisago Times. John Moses, proprietor of the Glasgow pot- tery at Trenton, N. J., thought he was mak- ing a good protection argument when he called bis 400 men up Tuesday night and of- fered them the wages of the men doing the same work tn Eogiland plus the amount of the duty. The men declined his offer. Of course they did. In tue frst place they are worth more, as every American has been worth more since New Jersey was first set- in favor of the foreigner.

To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: ‘*Caul Em Down’’ and others interested in the article published in your journal regard - ing the luck brought by the possession of a caul will doubtless be entertained by the narration of the following facts in the record ofa St. Louis family, from which your read- ers may deduce their own conclusions as to the lack question: Of eleven children born to this family the two eldest sons, now grown men, were born with cauls, two years apart. The eldest boy’s good luck has consisted of such little desirable episodes as this: Twen- ty years spent at hard labor in the Far West; rescued from being frozen to deathina mountain biizzard after his sulitary compan- ion had succumbed followed y a six- months’ sickness; blown up Dy premature explosionin a mine, causing Diindness for life; has been interested as partoer and discoverer of half a dozen mines, which turned eet. 3. . rely escaped from a burning hotel, losing c¢loth- ing, money, jewelry and professionai Instru- ments of considerable value, whereby he was compelled to sell a one-half interest in a mine for $500, which the purchaser sold for $200,000 eighteen montns afterward, and to- day he is developing a mine in British Columbia, with the thermometer at 40 degs. below zero. Now for the brother, the younger, possessed of the caul. His bright and briljiant manhood has been mainly and assiduously devoted to fame and fortune on the base ball feld.

He has escaped death from smalipox once and marriage to girts rer than himself ever so many times, dat still lives. CALL AGAIN, Jail Reform. To the Editor of the Poat- Thispatch: In view of the laudable efforts on the part of the Post-DisPaTcu to bring about reform in the care of female and juvenile prisoners at the City Jalil, it may not be amiss to state that you will find In the Mayor’s Message and accompanying documents, page 415, 1891 to 1892, inthe annual report of the Commis- sioners of Public Oharities to the Mayor, the same measure urged and recommended in the following language: THE JAIL. Though one of the best designed of in- stitutions of this sort, someplan should be devised for the separation of the juvenile and female criminals from those of more pronounced incorrigible character, and it would be quite in place tosay thatthe room now inuse as a lumber room, and which was designed for hospital purposes, could with comparativly little expense be ar- ranged so as to accommodate either the juvenile or female prisoners, and it would be a complete tsolation of either of these classes of prisoners and make decided improve- ment upon existing conditions.“ We earnestly hope that success wiil meet your efforts, as there is urgent necessity for this reform, and this keeping of female and juveniie prisoners insight and contact with each other is to my mind a disgrace that has existed too long already.

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, Jan. 5.—A San Francisco steamer, the Alameda, brings ad - vices from Honolulu to Dec. 22.

The most important news brought by the Alameda is the announcement that the United States Minister has asked the Pro- visional Government to surrender, as the United States Government had decided to restore Liliuokalani, who has agreed to rule in accordance with the present Constitution, ratify obligations of the 7 Government and grant amnesty to all ticipated in the revolution. prepared. subjects who par.

FOR FACTORY PURPOSES. Sale of Cheuteau Avenue Property at $100 a Foot. Hiram S. Cabel, President of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad, and Mrs. Lucy C. H. Stickney of Wauwatosa, Wis., have sold to John C. Schoenthaler, President of the Schoenthaler Manufacturing Co., 90 feet of ground on the north side of Chouteau avenue, between Tenth and Dieventh, for $100 a front foot. The deal was consummated by the firm of A. EK. Weiss & CO. Mr. Schoen- thaler will locate his factory, which is at present in North St. Louis, on the site purchased by him to-day. The district between Chouteau avenue and the railroad tracks is gradually becom- ing a mauufacturing and railroad district, Ihe reason for this is that it is convenient to the rallroad and the property there may still he had comparatively cheap. This section was at one time the choicest residence district of the city, and many fine old — sions, relics of a former period, still stand. These old landmarks are gradually disap- pearing, however, and it be but a few years before the wr. AF of the street has entirely changed. As manufacturing ‘property Chouteau avenue will be worth more than it would ever drin as residence property. Until recently mu of the property on the street has been tied up in estates, but now most ot it is ia shape where it can be sold. AT THE AGE OF 104. Death of Mrs. Ann Baldy at Terre Haute, Ind.

The Versatile Reformer Tells How His Change of Views Came About. New York, Jan. 5.—Hugh O. Pentecost, in his letter to Col. Fellows declining the ap- pointment of Assistant District Attorney, tellsin his picturesque way of his remarka- ble changes Of views within a few years. He says: For fifteen years I was a minister of the gospel. During that time my life was spent, for the mest part, in the seciusivn of the study. 1 knew little of the realities of the workaday world; little of busi- ness or politics. I mever cared for the subleties of theology. bat loved the study of the Biible, and de- came infatuated with tho personality of Jesus Christ. Aslrefiectea on his werds and conduct, be became to me a present reality with whom I lived and mored and had my being in spiritual com- munlon. His self-renunciation, his love ef others, his sympethy for the poor and sin- ful, hie willing submission to injury, his delicacy and gentieness touched, charmed and sub- dned me into devotion to him and hie cause. He was to me an ideal reality. It seemed tome that what he commanded should be done; that as he had lived so should we alilive. My heart burned and impelled me to be in some small measure to others what he had been, While in this highly wrought. state of mind I read Henry George's Progress and Poverty. and in the light which that clever book threw on the world I saw teeming millions of poor people sufferiag mis- eries which, to my mind, as influenced by Mr. George, were unjustiy inflicted upon them, and which seemed to me contrary to the will of the kind anc — 2 Jesus. . I flung myself into the wort of rn Mr. George in purging the world of poverty and briug- ing about a millennium, in the contemplation of whieh I gioried with the religious enthusiasm of « Crusader. When I wasin that state of mind the bomb which shocked the world was threwnin Chicago. Up to that time I hed hardly heard of Anarchists, and certainly did not know whet manner of beings they 6. then began to about them publications which side of the story. of the men who were hanged forthe murders eom- mitted by the CMeago bomb throwers I read what purported to be acondensed history of the trial, written by asympathizer with them. This narra- tive — — the men who were tried as enthusists for the welfare of humanity, and leit the ihupres- sion on my mind that they were not responsible for the act of the man who threw the bomb. The throwing of the bomb was as horrible an atrocity in my ay as in those of other peopie. I was a sincere disciple of Jesus, and the idea of an eesatsination lixe that perpetratec in Chicago was altogether monstrous tome. But I got the notion that the men who were hanged had nothing to do with the bomb parowine- os 7 © In the state of mind I have just described I preaehed a sermon in the Newark church, of which I was pas- tor, expressing my disapprovai of the hangivug on substantially the foregoing grounds, hut specifically declaring wy abhorrence of bomb throwing aud dis- claiming any sympathy with the views of the Chi- cago agitators, with which I did not then nor did I ever afterward coincide.

My idea was that if all men would do right no government would be necessary, except such as couid be maintained by voluntary contributions in lieu of taxation,and by the general consent and good will of the people,—* * Eventually, however, it dawned upos me that this is not a world of dreams, but one of practica! realities, and I ceased to indulge my Utopian im- aginings, cave up my - egy lectureship. and be- gan to study Blackstone. e effectually dragged I studied law.

I was admitted to the bar in this city, passing the regular examina- tions in the legal manner. I practiced law. I joinea the Democratic party.

I may, perhaps, be pardened for saying that it is & gratification to me to observe that among all the eriticismsthat have been made of my past opinioas pe one hes ventured to assail my moral character, my personal integrity. The war in Arabia is of the Hotel Goddard, where the two awakened dy the scimitars and look out to find the corridors running with blood. Atruce has been patched up, and the opposing factions now content themselves with flashing glances of scorn at each other they meet and with saying unkind things of one another whenever they can find a sympathetic listener... Tryling’s troupe, which is playing an en- ga gement at a down-town beer garden, have until now assumed an air of superiority over the members of Cheriff’s band, who were obliged to remainidie. This morning, how- ever, things were changed and the order reversed. Cheriff’s followers are now exultant, for their leader yesterday made arrangements which have materially brightened their prospects of relieving thems@ves from the awkward pligut in which the flight of their manager jeft them. Charles W. Daniels, Business Manager of Pope’s Theater, yester- day made a contract with Cheriff giving company an engagment oftwo weeks, with the privilege of extend- ingthe time should the venture prove suc- cessful. If possible it is understood that arrange- ments will be mace with some com- pany playing at Pope’s Theater during the next two weeks whereby Cheriff’s performers will be included in the ro- gramme. Performances are also to be given at East St. uis, Carondelet and North Sst. Louis. A new feature is to be added to the rogramme if the size of the stage allows in the shape of a sword combat on horseback, said to be a very thrilling performance. Col, Charles Whitney, who has been in the circus business for the past (forty will take the management company at the termination of their present engagemént and intends to tour with em. A contract has already been made on a basis of percentage. In view of-his more hopeful prospects Cheriff is inclined to ignore Tryling’s com- pany, and claims he would not pens in a ball of the n which that company are performing. In proof he shows a letter from the manager ofa similar down town resort asking him to call and make terms for an engagement, but which he says he ig- nored. His wite, Cheriffa, is also loud in her Genunciations of the abilities of the other — 1 —＋ A and issues a $500 challenge to any of them or to anyone inthe world for tbat matter to compete with her and the Egyptian girl, Armma, in performing the muscie, sword or any Arabian dance. She means business, and says if a matchcan be arranged the cash will be uickly forthcoming. she taught the girls in the other company allthey know, she says, is aware of just what they can do. The Mohammedan Sunday falls on Friday and when the reporter called upon Cheriff this morning he was piously perusing a copy of the Koran, written in strange Ara bian characters. Cherif is a religious man with liberal views, for as he explained to a reporter he thought it was just the same what name you gave toGod if youdidthe properthing it amounted to the same in the end. Cheriff bitterly resents the aspersions which have been cast upon his ability as a erformer. He bas deen in the show usiness he says for over twenty years and exhibited clippings from newspapers all over the world showing he had traveled with the Cole, Barnum and Forepaugh shows.
