The French troops were forced to con- struct @ military road from the west coast cot the island to Antananartvo, a distance of over 200 miles. Stations were established at intervals for hospitals and stores and up- ward of 8,000 men were required to keep up commuspication and escort convoy. About half the distance was through a malarious district and the invading force was decimated by deadly fevers. Antanan- arivo was strongly fortified, and, situated in a naturally strong position, was defended by 100 guns of the most recent manufact- ure. It was at this point that the Mhla- gasy Government concentrated all its efforts to check and overthrow the invading army. The French expedition was composed of — battalions of infantry, seven bat- t of artillery, one squadron of cav- alry, four companies of engineers, one a change of Ministry. The news quickly spread throughout the city, causing great excitement and much rejoicing. DOCTORS IN THE DARK. Patsy Casey’s Case Puzzles the Physi- cians of Barnum’s Town. Special to The Post-Dispatch. BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Oct. &—John Casey. who drives for Wheeler & Howes, has a son, Patrick, now 15 years old. Until last August this boy was remarkable only for his fiery red hair and his freckles. In August there was a hot wave. At the beginning of this wave Patsy Casey was five feet high and weighed 120 pounds. The intense heat made him grow like @ tropical lant, until now he is six feet two inches igh and weighs 168 pounds. His bones, formerly tough, are now so soft they bend like whale bones. His muscles are soft and stringy. His teeth dre loose and threaten to fall out at the slightest jar. Patsy’s bed fitted him nicely in August, but now Patsy’s feet hang a full foot away from the end of the bed. The doctors are much puzzled by this alarming growth, and way there is great danger that some of his organs, stomach, heart or lungs, are 2 more slowly and are liable to be far outstripped. But the most astounding thing of all happened last Thursday night. Mrs. Casey heard peculiar gaspings and gurglings from Patsy’s room. She found Patsy, his eyes bulging, his chest heaving, his 1 open wide and his tongue hanging out. He was trying to speak, but could not. “Oh, Patsy,“ said his mother, “what have you done now?“ Patsy got a piece of paper and a pencil and wrote: “I can’t talk any more. I had an awful dream and tried to call you and couldn't make a sound.“ The doctor could give no explanation, fur- ther than that the startling growth of Pat- sy’s body must have something to do with it. Patsy sleeps and eats well and is perfectly sound in mind. But he has not got Cooks — power of speech. Dr. Martin says he row still taller and that presenthy his t. earing and digestion will in all pro ty be impaired. 1 Special to The Pogt-Dispatcb. BOSTON, Oct. 8—When Andrew Free- man, than whom there is no more notorious crook in New England, gave himself up to the police, they could not understand it.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8&—Gongales De esada, secretary of the Cuban Revolu- — 4 party, with headquarters in New York, has been in Washington recently on private business. He did not see Secretary Olney, nor were ary steps taken towa securing the recognition of the Cuban insur- gents as belligerents. Mr. Quesada had dome on to attend the trial of the Cuban filibusters at Wilmington ago 1 Washington to see ends. nisicy of the Cubans in seeking recognition of the United States has been outlined su stantially as follows: No application will de made to the executive branch of the overnment until C assembles.

President Monroe sent a mes gress in March, ss — pet the recognition o e insu ments in Spanish America, as then 8 nated, and including Mexico, Peru, Chill, Colombia, Brazil and other countries. On Merch 9, 1892, Senor Anduaga, the Spanish Minister, addressed a letter to Secretary Adams, expressing his astonishment at the course of the President. After reciting many acts of kindness Spain had done for the United States, the Minister says: ut even admitting that morality ought to yield to policy, what is the pfesent state of Span- ish America, and what are its Governments to entitle them to recognition? Buenos Ayres is sunk in the most complete an- archy, and each day sees new despots pro- duced who disappear the next. Peru, con- quered by a rebeharmy, has near the ates of its capital a Spanish army. In Chill, an individual suppresses the sentiments of the eople. On the coast of Firma also the panish banners wave. The insurgent Generals everywhere are occupied with quarrels among themselves. In Mexico there is no Governm _ Where then are the | ought to . be recog- But in recogn the Southern countries, the President had been governed by facts, which Mr. Adams points out, are quite different from the facts set forth by the Minister. Mr. Adams lays down the general principles governing the recogni- tion of the new countries. One is the prin- ciple of right, the other the ~~, of fact. The Secretary says that the United States has carefully refrained from taking any part in the outbreak and has main- tained a most impartial neutrality. the contestants have set up their owh Gov- ernments and have successfully resist Spain. These are conditions of fact, an they are such as to entitle the insurgent countries to recognition. Mr. Adams adds: ‘The Government of the United States, far from consulting the dictation of @ ed questionable in its morality, has yielded to an obligation of duty of the highest order recognizing as independent States,“ nat which after deliberately asser N right to that character, have maintain and established it againgt all the résistance brought to oppose it. This is the mere a- knowledgment of existing facts with a view to the poguias establishment with the nations newly formed of those ceptions po- litical apa e dal, which it “4s mo of ofvilized stian mations to entertain with each other.” TRANSPORTED 70 AFRICA.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.—Assistanf Secre- tary Hamlin has written a letter in answer to an inquiry in which he states that the At- ‘torney-General has rendered an opinion which hereafter will govern the Depart- ment’s action, holding that white lead, man- ufactured from pig lead, produced in a bond- ed smelting and refining establishment, From the mixture of domestic and imported ores, is not entitled to draw back under the rovisions of section 22 of the new tariff act. nis decision, it is said, is based upon the fact that the amount of imported ores en- tering into the white lead product cannot be ascertained by chemical analysis. Nor will the manufacturer be permitted to show by other evidence the proportions of domestic and imported ores so used. | ABOUT TOWN. 8 —.— da foad an Bitten on the cheek Monday by a vicious dog that strayed into the yard.

HIS WIFE'S VERSION. Frank Lawten Talks About Virginia Earl's Trouble With Ben Tuthill. Frank Lawton, who does a whistling spe- cialty and some eccentrio dancing in “A Milk White Flag’ at the Grand Opera- house this week, is bubbling over with as much indignation as can be fermented in the body of a featherweight. It is all be- cause of the alleged uncomplimentary lan- guage addressed by Manager Ben Tuthill to Miss Virginia Earl, otherwise Mrs. Law- ton, on the occasion of her leaving The ery World” company two weeks ago. Tuthill’s side of the story has already been printed with frills and variations, which has 1 Mr. Lawton to break into print him- se “Tne story given out Tuthill in New York is absolutely false,” he said Monday night.

AT THE THEATERS. St. Louis’ New Theater, the Oriental, Opened at Last. The Oriental Theater succeeded after many trials and tribulations in being opened Monday night. Every box in the house was taken. The ‘main floor was more than two-thirds filed, while the balcony also had a goodly sprinkling of persons. The opera oom resented ‘“‘Nadjy’’ in a manner which did them credit. Yet there was about the whole affair an air of som- breness which is certainly unfortunate. Under other conditions, Mr. Pope’s lyric temple, as he calls the new play-house, might have b a success from the very start. There is no reason why it should not be, but misfortune and bad manage- ment have followed the venture from its inception. With the p r management the new theater will probably work its way into a well-deserved popularity, and it reall does deserve encouragement. Such an — tution will lend attractiveness and an ad- 2 charm to the night life of a large city. Monday night the performance was not as successful as it should have been for more than one reason. In the first place, instead of the magnificent chairs which had been ordered for the new house, were the old hard-bottomed, green-painted ones from the Cave, entirely out of keeping with the Oriental gaudiness of the theater itself. At the last moment an eccentric got out of shape and so there were no electric lights, several calciums and gas footlights doing duty instead. Manager Pope, in a little speech before the rise of the curtain, apolo- gized for all this and he was cheerfully for- given, but the facts were dampening, never- „ e company which Manager Pope has IE is one of considerable 3 and ad the acott.e properties of the house been better, would have been h more ecvantageously to themselves, This defect, iowever, can, and no doubt will, be Im- mediately remedied.

Maroney, attorney for Pelegate George Sippel in the Cravens-Sippel con- tested election case, has withdrawn from the case. His reason is that, after being repeatedly urged to do so, Sippel failed to call on his attorney to discuss the case and take means to prevent Cravens’ attor- ney from taking the ons of seventy- five colored witnesses at the office of Cra- vens’ attorney, Ford Smith, and before a notary and stenographer of his choosing. Mr. Smith duly notified Mr. Maroney, who thought his ent’s interests would de served by having the depositions taken under different circumstances. The witnesses in question claim that they voted for Cravens and t votes were not so counted. Sippel did not take any steps in the matter, and Mr. Maroney thought it best. he should retire from the case. The contest stands as it did. Sippel was seated on the face of the returns. On both sides there are disputed ballots and the decision will rest on what view the Court takes of the validity of these ballots, and the apparent intention of the voters whose ballots were thrown out for being irregu- MUSIC HATH POWER. By It the Savage Breast of Kate Jeyce Was Soothed. That music hath charms to soothe the savage breast is fully believed by William Hoffman of 1306 Merchant street, and he put it to a practical test on Kate Joyce, a ant, who lives at 1433 North Four- teenth street. William and Kate have been good friends, but of late Kate has shown preference for the society of one Frank Hagan. Jealousy took possession of the discarded lover and there was music in the air when William swung a banjo aioft and brought it down on te’s head. He made a decided hit with the instrument, and Kate had to be taken to the Dispensary, where Dr. New- comb dressed a bad scalp wound. Kate re- — home quite subdued by the power of music. TO ESTABLISH GRADES.

The Street Car Fender Again Proves Its Great Utility. And now comes the street car fender as the saver of the life of a poor, lone mule, taking an early constitutional and viewing the fair week sights. Mr. Mule had divorced himself from his keeper, and was wandering up Franklin avenue in a leisurely manner. He didn’t even wait to put on his harness, as he wished untrammeled action on this glorious fair week festal day. For a time he dallied about several banana carts trying to induce the swarthy countrymen of Garibaldi to open their hearts, but all he could get out of them was Nie' a doz.” Becoming dis- gusted he started out to Chris Von der Ahe , hew trac having read that any kind of a dog could get in the gan out there. But he only got as far as Fourteenth and Franklin avenue. Here he came to grief. It was 9 o'clock and the cars were crowded with people ous to get down town. Along Fourteenth street came Suburban car No. 83 at a rattling pace. The motorman didn’t see Mr. Mule and Mr. Mule didn't see the car until # was nearly on him. Just before the mule and car came into contact Motorman R. Meyer dropped the fender and stopped the power. The car didn't come to a standstill and Mr. Mule had no other opportunity for es- * than the fender. Did it save him? „ certainly. The mule was carried fully 100 feet and then deposited unharmed, but badly scared, on the ground. e fender was practically demolished, THE CRUSH MAKES HIM TIRED Gov. Stone Likes the Great Ball All But That. | Gov. Stone, accompanied by his wife, came down from Jefferson City Monday night and is at the Southern. The especial object of the @overnor’s visit at tbis time is to meet with the commission having in charge the award of the contract for a statue of Senator Benton, to be placed in denen Hall in the Capitol at ashing- on. The Governor will attend the Veiled Proph- et's ball to-night and cut the pigeon wing with the rest of them, though he has no fondness for this sort of thing. “Mrs. Stone made me bring my evening suit along.“ he said to a Post-Dispatch re- porter, “and I suppose she will make me go to the ball with her. I haven’t whirled in the merry dance for many a day, and I don’t know how I am going to make out to-night. The only objection I have to such affairs is the immense crush that always attends them. I love to see the decked out in their fine feathers and the men in their swallow-talls, paying due and 4 obeisance to the queens of creation.

Anyone having a good new or second- hand gravestone which is not being worn can exchange it for a nice gold watch chain of the opera pattern, It takes ‘‘rocks” to buy gold chains, which perhaps suggested to the lady who wishes to dispose of the chain an advertisement for a gravestone in exchange. The exchange “ad” is a great thing. It enables people who have what they don’t want and have not those things which they do want to communicate with others simi- larly circumstanced and everyone has a chance to_be suited. People often acquire by gift or bequest things they have no earthly use for. There are those who would trade a bible for a quart of whisky or a chuck-a-luck outfit. Thee are quiet loving husbands and fathers who would be glad to exchange a piano for a sewing machine. If the Sioux squaw at the Exposition wére civilized and up-to-date she might nego- tiate a trade of her infant for a trick dog * a talking parrot, instead of raffling it These examples may appear incongruous, but a study of the exchange ad“ columns will show them to be not so far off as might be imagined. The offer to swap an opera chain for a gravestone is tolerably unique itself. There are exchange brokers who make 4 living by bringing people together who want to swap possessions. ey watch the ads“ and communicate with the parties. If the advertiser wants a piano, a pug dog, a tame crow or a monument in exchange for @ corn cutter, a Chinese god, a Florida farm or a trained goat, the broker, who knows where these things can be found, hustles around, arranges a deal, gets a commission out of both parties, and every- body is happy. One of these was attracted by an “ad” in a Sunday paper as follows: WANTED—To exchange an opera chain for a gravestone. Address „ . llth st. This was so unique, even to his wide ex- perience, that he called at the address given. He found there an old lady who ad- mitted having inserted the advertisement, The lady had a fine gold opera chain, pre- sented to her when all fashionable iadies wore them. She is not given much to the vanities of this world and the c and watch accompanying it showed no signs of wear. She and her husband are getting old and they want a gravestone for the family burial lot more than the lady wants a gold chain. Recently her married daughter sug- gested that as long watch chains had again come into fashion, if she would advertise for a tombstone she would doubtless find ple eager to swap. Gravestones are dead stock anyway, with some people, and whoever has one lying loose about the house should jump at the opportunity offered. lady prefers a Vermont marble head- stone and is willing to pay some boot.

During Fair Week St. Louts is the Mecca of all the light-fingered gentry within a radius of 500 miles, who come in the ex- pectation of reaping a rich harvest from the thousands of visitors who annually throng the city at this time. One of those enterprising gemtlemen was brought up with a round turn, Monday afternoon and by a woman at that. Instead of spending the week in fleecing innocent strangers he will spend it in jail. At 3 o’clock Monday afternoon Mrs. Caro- line Wincelk and her daughter, Mrs. Laura Attin. of 2209 Dodier street, were shopping in Hilt’s shoe store, Sixth and Franklin avenue. While Mrs. Wincell was examining some goods a man sidled up to her, slyly inserted his hand into her pocket and ex- tracted her pocketbook containing $49. For- tunately he was observed by Mrs. Attin, who, with an exclamation, seized the pick- pocket. He struggled to get away, but Mrs. Attin bravely clung to him. In this she soon had the assistance of Mrs. Win- cell and the two women held their captive securely until the arrival of a policeman. Mrs. Wincell recovered her pocketbook and her money. At the Third District Station the man gave his name as Thomas Crawford of Springfield, Mo. He claims to have been in town but six hours when arrested, having arrived on a morning train from Kansas City. Although but 17 years old the police think he is a hardened crook, as in his conversation he showed an intimate ac- quaintance with most of the large citiés of the country. A warrant will be issued 17 hortly before the incident at Hilt’s, Mrs. Davis, 1437 Papin street, had her pocket- book snatched from her hand at Broadway and Morgan street by a man answering Crawford's description. It contained some- thing over $1 in small change. When ar- rested Crawford had $1.40 in small change in his pocket and the police think he is the thief who got hold of Mrs. Davis.

James Johnson Needed More of On Than of the Other. ö An old man named James Johnson had a thrilling experience at the Dispensary yes- terday. He left in worse condition than he entered, after getting three kinds of treat- ment.

Fimshed with his victory over the Magee revolters in Pennsylvania, Sena- tor Quay has now entered upon a quest which is expected to place him at the head of the Republican National Com- mittee in next year’s campaign. It is not Mr. Quay’s method to seek what he wants in politics with a brass band, but he has not been able to conceal his preg ent purpose from members of the Repu lican National Committee who have am bitions or favorites of their own. 3 Hence it is that through the Sepubii- can newspapers, which are ‘ 4 net Quay, the danger of placing at the head of the Na al ttee fs being emphasized. He “rnish a mark for the Democratic ag i Oraters, so it is ind whatever discredits him credit the ticket in whose he- @ was leading the fight. It is not Mr. Quay’s habit to talk when in the midst of a political fight. If he zould be induced to speak, however, he would doubtless borrow one of Dr. Park- vuret’s phrases. In describing his critics e would say they are “morally finical.“ e would ask why an Republican ould object to him or his methods. would claim to be a typical Republi- 1, Who has been honored by his party ig after his character and methods were fully exposed. He would point to the fact that if he was guilty of using money corruptly in the Presidential cam- paign which he conducted in Harrison's behalf, the money for corruption pur- poses was furnished by John Wana- maker and other Pharisees of the Re- publican faith. He could cite Diidley and his Blocks of Five to show that, if anything, he was rather more respect- able than some of his predecessors in the leadership of Republican campaigns. He can prove overwhelmingly that the only objections Republican politicians have to rascality in politics is being found out. He can prove, too, that his conduct of the campaign of 1888 was fully approved and indorsed by his associates on the National Committee, Why not Quay? ———, 1 - THE PAPER TRUST. If an attempt should be made to levy @ tax on every newspaper bought by the people of this country there would be a universal and indignant protest which would soon wipe the obnoxious tax from the statute books. Yet this ts precisely what the trust to control the manufacture of newspaper paper proposes to do. The organization of this combine is now practically completed. It is reported to have secured control of plants which manufacture about 900 tons of the 1,200 tons required for the daily consumption of the newspapers of this country. The value of the trust plants does not exceed $10,000,000, but it is proposed to capitalize the trust at $35,000,000, and in order to pay dividends on the watered stock the price af paper will be advanced from 15 to 25 per cent. Two wrongs are involved in the forma- tion of this trust.

Judge Edmunds did not overstate in his instructions to the Grand-jury* the im- pdrtance of remedying the abuses in the matter of acepting invalid or insufficient bonds for prisoners in the Criminal Courts. : The abuse is an old one which has baf- fied all attempts at reform and has been prolific of scandals: The disreputable business of professional and straw bond» men which has enabled many criminals to escape punishment has grown out of it. It has caused, not only the defeat of justice in many cases, but the loss of thousands of dollars to the State through the acceptance of worthless bonds. It was rightly describe@ by Judge Edmunds as an abuse which seriously affects the administration of justice, . . The law is deficient and should have been amended long ago eo that the State would have a lien on the property of bondsmen, but in the absence of a good law the laws we have should be utilized to protect the State. The law against perjury applies to all bondsmen who swear falsely as to their property. The enforcement of this law against a few false-swearing bondsmen would put a stopeto the worst bond abuses. With the facts laid before it by Judge Edmunds and in the possession of the prosecuting officer, the Grand-jury should have no difficulty in indieting some of the rascals who perjure themselves for the benefit of criminals and to line their own pockets. THE BOODLE INQUIRY FIASCO. The boodle investigation of the Sanga- mon County Grand-jury has ended in a fizzle. The finding of one indictment against Representative Gibson of Chi- cago is a most disappointing result. Representative Gibson was one of the small fry among the boodlers. His case is admittedly the least important of all that were brought to the attention of the Grand-jury. He is indicted for accepting a bribe of $395 in connection with the In- terstate Building and Loan Association investigation. The big boodlers have all escaped. The lobbyists who handled and placed the slush funds, the Assemblymen who marshalled the forces of corruption and received the richest boodle plums have managed in some mysterious way, known only to the expert manipulaters of the machinery of justice, to evade the consequences of their crimes. Only one minor offender, because his pull happened to be deficient or because his case can be trusted to collapse in court, was allowed to be caught, The people of Illinois cannot be satis- fied with such an outcome of the inves- tigation. It is admitted that there is abundant evidence to convict the big rascals. But it is claimed that their in- fluence is too powerful to be overcome. They are safely shielded from prosecu- tion. Who is shielding them? How and upon whom is their influence exerted? Was State Attorney Graham derelict? Were Grand-jurymen bribed? Were witnesses bribed or bulldozed into silence? In view of the result these are pertinent ques- tions. Judge Shirley and State’s Attorney Graham cannot afford to let the investt- gation close with this flasco. Another Grand-jury should be summoned to take up the work. If the boodlers cannot be indicted in Sangamon County, investi- gation should be started wherever there is jurisdiction over the boodle cases. If the report be true that the Peoria Grand- jury will take up the investigation, it is to be hoped that the inquiry will be con- ducted with more vigor than was the Springfield investigation. | After immensely enriching one gem- bler, putting thousands in the peckets of a few others, and correspondingly de- pleting the bank accounts of thousands of small English speculators, it is said that the “Kaffir’ gambling fever has reached America.

The effect of dabbling im it could be nothing bat South Africa is too far away for any real interest in its gold fields to be felt here. It is not pretended that those who are proposing to list the stock in the Chi- cago market expect to interest American enterprise in South African gold fields.

MEN OF MARX. Ex-Senater Edmunds has made Philadel- phia his home. Gov. Culherson of Texas is only 32 years old. He is the youngest man that ever held the office in that Btate. Puvis de Chavannes, the famous French painter, is a tall, erect, broad-shouldered man, with a snow-white beard and hair closely cut to his handsome head. One of the most intimate personal friend- ships among Senators is that between Black- burn of Kentucky and Allison of Iowa. The two men are unlike in politics, antecedgnts and associations, but they hold the most de- voted relations with each other. A deep mystery has for some time been connected in many minds with Mr. W. W. Astor’s literary and journalistic ventures in England, but an English theosophist now thus explains it. Mr. Astor has become, so many theosophists hope, “‘a convert to their belief.“ Gov. McKinley had in his regiment during the war quite a lot of men who afterward became distinguished. Rosecrans was his first Colonel, Stanley Matthews, afterward Justice of the Supreme Court, his Lieuten- ant-Colonel, and Rutherford B. Hayes, after- ward President, his Major. WOMEN OF NOTE.

Thus we see that the wisest, those with the best oppor- tunity to judge, and rich in unlimited re- sources, are convinced of the curative quali- ties of these medicines, With ability to procure the best medical talent in the world, this renowned Queen preferred a genuine remedy which had cured so many people, whose testimonials she had read. Among allthose which rare genius, after tawak | lone years of study and experiment, has dis- covered, there is none equal to Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. Kings, queens, nobles and peasants, the — as well as the low, alike employ and are cured by this grand remedy, especially at this season of the year, when the blood and nerves require this purifying and invig- orating medicine. Let others follow these filustrious examples. Don't make any mis- take. Take Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. It is this you need. It is this which will surely make you well and strong, Mrs. Charles H. 1 residing at 143 State Street, MontpeNer, Vt., is of the very highest social position. She says: Two years ago we had a terrible experi- ence with La Grippe, and by overwork in taking care of my children and the results of the disease I was left in a very exhausted condition, in fact was nearly prostrated. |! was so weak that upon the least excitement would feel nauseated. I was as near nervous prostration as anyone could be. Someone recommended Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy to me and |! immediately began fts use. I am happy to say that it completely cured me. I think it is the best medicine I ever knew of for any form of nervous or chronic disease.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8—In connection: enn the recent challenge for the America’s cup | by Charles Day Rose, there is evidence that the Britons intend keeping the boat- | events. builders busy the next. six months, A achtsman, who is in close touch with British yachtsmen, having recently re- urned from Burope, made this statement to a Post-Dispatch re Ay „Tes, I have heard. withdraw and I am knowing the situation three boa a third. res or that the a of Wales was about to chatlenae has been frequently de- nied.

As Commodore of the Royal Yacht Squadron it would not be good form for the Prince to challenge. Besides, it would be equivalent to the Government challenging.’ From another source it was learned that there is to be a determined effort on the other side to change the class of the chal- lenging yacht; that is, to build her not over seventy feet on the water line. It is also well understood that at least two of the boats are to be constructed wholly of aluminum. If a . -foot challenger comes, it will force the fenders of the — to build one of that dimension to meet her. There is every reason to believe that such a boat could be turned out here in a short time that would prove as much of a world-beater as the Defender, DEGRADES THE ART. John L. Sullivan Expresses His Opin- ion Regarding Culberson’s Course. CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 8—Although con- fident the battle between Corbett and Fits- simmons will be fought, John L. Sullivan is apprehensive of the result of the war Gov. Culberson is making on pugilism. “All such attacks as those made by the Texas Governor and the Maygr of Cleve- land.“ says Sullivan, noble art of boxing in popular estimation. If that fight in Dallas is sto pped, pugilism will receive a blow so serious it will never recover until conditions are greatly chang- ed. Although the tendency of the age is in the direction of the depreciation of the art, I feel so sure of the American people I am willing to wager dollars to beans the time is not far off when it will be in its rightful place, where all will do it honor. Such affairs as the meeting of Corbett and Fitzsimmons tend to elevate the art in the minds of men. If right prevails crn will have a great future before THE BROWNS IN 1896. The Team.

They Put Up Jewelry and Dollars for Positions. Detectives Allender and Smith arrested Russell Wooldridge, alias J. C. Edwards, and E. C.

Walsh claimed that the two had swindled him out of a gold watch and chafn which he had put up as se- curity when he was given an alleged - tion as a solicitor for them. Both of t men were well dressed and wore diamonds, and subsequent investigation by thé police shows that they have been doing a most — business of their own peculiar So far as the evidence obtained now goes to show Wooldrid & Thomas must have „got in” to at least a * guileless young men to the tune of $30 apiece. Up to last Saturday they had been running for some little time a concern known as the Eclipse Manufacturing Co., in room 65 of the De Menil building. The specialty of this company was churns. They had a patent churn that could make ore butter out of skimmed milk than any other churn could out of cream, and all one had to do to get money was to sell these wonderful goods.

The address concludes: The functions of the Government of the United States are distinct and separate from those of the States. Matters of tariff, taxation and coinage are functions of the United States with which the States have nothing directly to do. The support of every Demo- crat is therefore due to the State ticket.

The fair started off Tuesday morning with aboom. Enthusiasm prevailed everywhere. The fitie fall alr put everyone on their met- tle—men, begsts and birds. Crowds began pouring into the gates bright and early ang soon the sunny grounds were dotted over with the happy throngs of city and country cousins mingled together. The side shows with their gay tents and long streamers, with the cryers calling out the attractions, were doing a lively business, and even the usually lugubrious balloon fakirs had cheer- ntenances, ne saddle horse competition in the arena, together with the novel specialties, served : is i. oe * mn the "4 at the Fair 18 ve of what one t suppose the : the Arizona Kicker runs for his vate edification.

It was hard to tell which pleased the multitude the better, the dashing, high- spirited thoroughbreds from Kentucky and issouri or the daring work of Herr Gran- ada on the wire and the thrilling leap of the trapezists from their airy heights into the icy font of water below. Horsemen were scattered about the am- phi theater discussing, the fine points in the animals whom the judges were trying for the premiums. The universal comment was that the exhibition was one of the best ever seen at the Fair. Awards in the other departments are being made as fast as feasible, and by night- fall all of the judges will be well into their work, * The prospects for a tremendous atten- dance at the Fair could not be better. The opening day left nothing to be asked for. and every register on crowds coming into the city indicates an enormous influx. The advantages of the Union Station are now Strongly in evidence, and-capacious as it is it is being literally packed with visitors who are coming from the surroundin towns to see the sights. Every morning ant every night the Midway, stretching from Eighteenth to Twentieth streets, is a solid mass of humanity pushing their way out into the streets. The hotel men are simply in clover. All the hostelries are doing a big business, but within the past two years the accom- modations have so increased that no vis- itor need fear his inability to secure rooms.

Jerry and his wife refused to give up the child and were as- saulted with rocks, lumps of coal and other missiles. Old Mrs. Reeves was hit in the head with a big rock hurled by one of the assailants.

It ought to have been obvious to her that the Bar- onet was only wooing her money; and that —this being the case—there was no reason- able prospect of married happiness between them. But, wherever the original mistake | lay, every ounce of subsequent blame at- ‘tached to Sir John; who, even if he were wnable to love his elderly and commonplace espouse, had, at. any rate, no excuse for neglecting her so shamefully as he did.

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 8.—W. A. Brawner, i a wealthy man suspected of writing insult- ing anonymous letters concerning the fas | dies of Maitland, near here, was last night | whipped almost to death by Aldermen : Heard and Lawson, Postmaster Rawls and Samuel Pullman, all of Maitland.

The men who whipped him say | they can prove that he wrote the letters. WALDORF’S SAD PLIGHT. Missing Indiana Man Found Insane in a Texas Town. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Oct. 8.—George Waldorf has turned up, insane, in a small Texas town, and has been brought back to his home in Brown County, Indiana. He is a building contractor who mysteriously dis- appeared from Terre Haute about a year ago. There is a large indentation in his skull, which, the physicians say, has caused imbecility. At the time he disappeared his hat and some of his business papers were found in a railroad yard here. He was known to have had $400 in cash the night before. He is not only not able to tell what ha ned to him, but can not recognize his wife and children. The theory is that he was assaulted and robbed in the railroad yard and carried to Texas in the box car in which his assailants had placed him. BARTHQUAKE AT WINONA. It Was So Violent That Women Ran Screaming Into the Street. WINONA, Ill, Oot. There was an earthquake in Winona at 1:20 yesterday morning. It was so violent that many per- sons ran into the streets in their fright, and in some instances women screamed for aid. It was over an hour before quiet was re- stored and some persons were 60 | that they sat up until daylight. The shock caused a good deal of damage to the cdal mines in this vicinity. Slate and rock were shaken from the roofs, and there is scarcely a mine but will have to expend $200 or in repairs. 258 Daily and Sundays, too. The Katy Piyer, a new fast train via the M., K. & T.
