Hoar has arriyed in this city from BWurope and announces that he is ready to take an active part in the campaign. “I have had an opportunity of seeing a good many of the prominent English bimet- Allists,“ he said, “and of conversing with a considerable number of persons who are very important and influential leaders in the party now in power. “There is undoubtedly a very strong feel- Ing in England in favor of the restoration of silver to its place by the side of gold, as a standard of value.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 8.—There will be held here in February next a “National Congress of Mothers.“ The originator of the project, believing in the neeessity for organized and earnest ef- fort on the part o“ the mothers of the land, concerning questions most vital to the wel- fare to their children, arid the manifold in- ferests of the home, presented the subject at some of the mother meetings at Chautau- gua in the summer of 1895. The earnest en- thusiagsm with which it was received made it evident that the thought need only to be dis- Séeminated to be quickly accepted and acted upon, It is proposed to have the Congress con- Sider all subjects which relate to the home, especially those bearing upon the better and broader moral and physical, as well as men- tal training of the young. Of special im- portance will be the subject of means of de- veloping in children characteristics which will elevate and ennoble them, and thus t in overcoming the conditions which ‘mow prompt crime and make necessary the maintenance of jails, work-houses and re- ‘formatories. Headquarters have been located at No. 1400 New Hampshire avenue, this city. WEBER'S BUTTERFLY LIFE Ends in His Commitment to an Insane Asylum. / Spoelal to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 8—Albert Weber, the ‘One-time millionaire and man about town, “Was taken to Waldmere, a private retreat, at eck to-day.

Says Silver 1 Believe Mc- Kinley to Be a Strong Silver Man. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.— Henry George still continues to write on the political situation in Ohio to the Journal. Each day a com- | prehensive survey of the field is presented, and is a source of encouragement to silver men as to the probable result in that de- batable ground.” In to-day’s paper Mr. George says: DAYTON, O., Oct.3.—I went from Colum- bus to Springfield, and came here this after- noon. I found in Springfield the same evi- dences of activity and confidence on the part of the Bryan men as I have found elsewhere in Ohio. Clark County is normally Republi- can by a majority of 2,200. Some of the Bry- an men expect this year to carry it outright, and whet they seem to think a most con- servative estimate is that they will reduce McKinley’s majority to less than 1,000. Dayton, in Montgomery County, is a city of some 80,000 population. The Soldiers’ Home is here, with between five and six thousand inmates. Montgomery County was strongly Democratic until in their utter dis- gust with Democracy of the Cleveland ad- ministration, so many Democrats stayed at home as to turn the balance to the Republi- cans. I find here the same confidence that the county will go for Bryan by a strong majority, and for the same reason that I have found elsewhere. Bryan will have the support of the Populists, of the greater part of the Prohibitionists, a full Democratic vote, with a slight deduction of gold Demo- erate. The workingmen are quietly for him, and among the Republicans large numbers are turning to him as the representative of free silver, And yet, not all free silver Republi- cans are for Bryan. Some of them at least —as for tnstance, a gentleman whom I met in Springfield—although the strongest kind of believers in free silver, will vote for Mc- Kinley, because they believe he is so strong- ly a silver man that when he gets in the Presidential chair: he is sure to set aside the platform of his party and act for silver. ' “IF NOT SILVER, WHAT?” Millionaire Bookwalter’s Book on Gold Demonetization. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—John W. Bookwal- ter, the millionaire farm implement maker of Springfield, O., now staying at the Wal- dorf, has just published at his own expense, a book entitled, If Not Silver, What?“ The author writes as one whose prosperity de- pends on the prosperity of the farmer, and he reviews the effect monometallism has had and will continue to have on that clase of producers, Mr. Book walter goes deeply into the money question. He meets obsolete arguments against the free coinage of silver with the experience of France and other nations on e epace ia dev 7 2 * * gt 3 e NN rae yg ho og Tess 2 * | an equal coinage. He furnishes data and 7 a eee e Con-! T tization of silver in 1873, was the demonetiza- tion of go... in 1857. In the half century ter- minating with 1840 the world had produced but $529,942,000 in gold, coinage value, and $1,364,697,000 in silver, or some forty ounces of silver to one of gold. Yet their ratio of values had varied but little. Why? Mono- metallists have raked the world for an answer. Bimetallists point to the only one that is satisfactory—the persistency of France in treating both metals alike at her mints.” Mr. Bookwalter shows that in the thirteen years following the discovery of gold in California in 1849, the stock of gold in the world had doubled. Then the cry was raised in Europe that there was too much gold and the nations combined and demonetized it. France, however, imported gold as fast as the other European nations exported it and thus saved the world from a great calamity. NEW TEN COMMANDMENTS. Divorce Granted a Chicago Man on Whom They Were Sprung. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, In., Oct..3—Judge Haney granted a divorce to-day to William Schneckebier on the strength of the follow- ing commandments, which his wife, Lillie, insisted he should obey: These are the new commandments ten: Which wives now make for married men; One—Remember that I am thy wife, That thou must cherish all thy life. Two~Thou shalt not stay out late at night, When lodges, friends or clubs invite. Three—Thou shalt not smoke indoor or out, Or chew tobacco roundabout. Four—Thou shalt with praise receive my pies, g Nor pastry made by me despise. : Five—My mother thou shalt strive to please, And let her live with us in ease. Six—Remember tis thy duty clear To dress well throughout the year, Seven—Thou shalt, in manner mild and meek, Give me thy wages every week. Eight—Thou shalt not be a drinking man, But live on prohibition plan. Nine—Thou shalt not flirt, but must allow Thy wife such freedom, anyhow. Ten—Thou shalt sit up when baby cries, And try thy child to tranquillize. These commardments from day to day, Implicitly thou shalt obey. Schneickebier told the Court that his wife was in correspondence with several men, and that when remonstrated with her she produced these mmandments and said: That is the way we treat men.“ TRAIN WRECKERS BALKED.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—The Evening World has the following special cablegram; LONDON, Oct. 3.— The World correspond ent examined to-day a file of the Fnancial News, in tts office here, and found the fol- lowing statement in an editorial in its is- sue of April 30, 1894: “There can be no doubt about it, that if the United States were to adopt a silver basis to-morrow British trade would be ruined before the year was out, for American industry would be > ratected not only at home, but in ev- ery — market.” THE YALE HOODLUMS.

At the Catholic Club He Highly Com. plimented the Irish. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3—Lord Russell, Chier Justice of Great Britain, and Lady Russell, met with a brilliant reception last evening Tat the hands of the Catholics. The fine building had never seen so large and dis. tinguished a gathering. Their last night in America was devoted to the Catholic Club, and the President, Judge Joseph F. Daly, made a strong point of this in introducing the guests. Lord Russell made @ long speech, fre- quently interrupted by epplause. He spoke of matters across the ocean. He said he was no longer politically active, but he still had political opinions. Should the same cir- cumstances arise he would be found holding the .same .opinions: He touched upon the descendants of Irishmen, and Catholics in anne a ON AO” posing it. They had given England states- men, orators, jurists, poets, and also gen- erals, but more important than generals, Ireland had given the generals armies to command. This neat turn was loudly ap- . plauded. Everywhere in this country, he said, he and his wife had received the greatest cour- tesy, never forget it. ABDUCTED BY THREE MEN. A 16-Year-Old Girl Taken to the In- dian Country. Special to the Post-Dispatch. HOT SPRINGS, Arig t. 3—The latest ripple of a sensation in South Hot Springs is the abduction of a 15-year-old. girl by three young men, which occurred day before yesterday. Bertha Spencer, a comely lass under the age of 16, lived with her old mother, who is now and for some time has been lying upon a bed of illness. The girl’s father is away from home. For some time past three young men named Wilson, sup- posed to be from tie Indian country, have been sojourning in South Hot Springs. They became acquainted with the Spencer girl, and one of them has been keeping her com- pany of late. Day before yesterday she dis- appeared from home, and it was found that her clothing and effects had disappeared with her. At the same time the Wilsons left for parts unknown, and it was after- wards ascertained that they got another young man to take them overland towards Texas in.an ox wagon, and the indiscreet Bertha is said to have been one of the party. the greatest kindness. They would | SECRETARY HERBERT. He Took a Look at Europe’s Naval Strength. Special to the Paest-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—Hilary A. Herbert, Sceretary of the Navy, returned from Europe on the Paris this anorning. He said that he had been to Europe visiting the gun factories of France and England. At Brest he visited some French war- ships. He did not find anything there that is superior to our navy. He did not visit any English warships, but he saw the torpedo works at Yarrow, Where the new thirty-two-knot torpedo catchers of the British navy were built. The Secretary also visited the famous steel works at Sheffield, where the armor plates for the British navy are made. BOUGHT BY RUSSIA. The Czar’s Agents Have Purchased the Wellman Steel Works. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHESTER, Pa., Oct. 3—The Russian Government is negotiating for the purchase of the machinery of the Wellman Steel Works. The price offered is $86,175. The ne- gotiations have been secretly in progress for three weeks and only leaked out to-day when the matter was taken into court by reason of the fact that the concern had been in the hands of a receiver for three years past, and ts still under the supervision of court. The purchase includes. the engines, the largest train of plate rolls in the world, cranes, pumps and all necessary apparatus for putting the plant in immediate opera- tion.

It does us good to reread those principles and renew our allegiance to them. Equal and exact justice to all men of whatever sect or persuasion and justice to all.“ ( Applause.) This is the first, this is the fundamental principle, “equal and exact justice to all men, ven by Jef- Show me the abuse of government—show me the law which has been violated and I ye “THERD CAN BE NO PROSPERITY.” will show vou a violation of this princi-. ple of exact justice to all men. The great- est danger which government has to fear when entrusted to human hands is favorit- ‘ism. Favoritism is the greatest of all abuses among governments, and yet favor- itism is dangerous even in our government because our government is administered through human beings, and human beings are hum (Applause.) My friends, if you would have a Govern- ment just, then you would have govern- ment fulfill the ideal of perfect govern- ment. You must have a government just in the respecter of persons, government which deals with an equal hand; a govern- ment which recognizes no favoritism and A government which, in its administra- tion of the law, deals out justice to all alike, and punishes the great villian as it does the petty thief. (Applause.) Our Constitution and our surroundings make it possible for us to have and enforce at all times justice to all men. The sup- port of the State Governments is the mos» competent adminstration for our domestic concerns and assures and raises bulwarks against anti-republican tendencies. My friends, our form of government recognizes the right of States to do cer- tain things, and the perpetuity of this na- tion depends as much upon respecting local self-government as it does upon respect- ing national supremacy. (Applause.) If we neglect to preserve that local self- government provided by the Constitution we encounter those dangers which wil threaten this Republic, as they have threat- ened all others the concentration of power in the hands of a few people will be the result, and those people will suffer the consequences of usurpation of their rights. When you do this we take away from the people that watchful care of a free Gov- ernment that leads them to the place where they become victims of a tyrant, who will seize the reins of government and use force to subdue a people half- subdued by indifference. (Applause.) “The preservation of the general govern- ment in its old constitutional vigor is the * sheet anchor of our liberties and safety abroad.“ That is a statement of the other half. Jef - ferson believed in the rights of the State, and yet he did not abate one iota of the power and vigor of the Federal Govern- ment that extends over all. And so to-day we should follow him and earnestly en- dea vor to preserve those rights which re- main with the States, and we shall as firmly enforce those rights of the people and the nation. (Applause.) “Guard with jealous care the rights of election by the people,” and we will save the aggregation of abuses which are the source of revolution where peaceable meth- ods are not provided.” My friends, elections by the people are the safety-valve in a republic. It is here that all discontent can expend itself; it is here that all criticism can find its out- let. Stop elections by the people and you dam up discontent until it breaks its dam and floods mankind. (Applause.) Jefferson did not say that we should preserve with jealous care elections by corporations. (Loud cheering and laughter.) He did not say that we should preserve with jealous care elections by a few syndicates and a few trusts or even by a few bank corpor- ations. (Applause.) e said elections by the people, and he meant by all the people. (Renewed applause.) “Absolute acquiescence in the decision of the majority ts a vital principle of govern- ment from which there is no .appeal but force, which is the parent of despotism.”’ You tell me that we believe in lawlessness; I tell you that with Thomas Jefferson we are the preservers of public order because we believe ‘in the absolute acquiescence with ‘the will of the majority. “A well disciplined militia are the best reliance in peace and in the first moments of war until the 1 may relieve them.“ Ah, better this form of domina ion than * BARGAINS IN FINE SHOES AT BOEHMER’S.

MR. BRYAN’S SUNDAY. He Will Spend the Sabbath Day Try- ing to Recuperate. After making numerous speeches in In- Giana and IlMnois, and after addressing three vast meetings, one in Past St. Louis and two in St. Louis, Mr. Bryan returned to the Southern Hotel shortly before 11 o’clock. He had probably done a harder day’s Work than any other man in America and Was well-nigh exhausted. He expressed himself as highly pleased th the meetings, especially with the im- | throng which attended the Work- fngmen's Bryan Club meeting at the South Bide track. He said he would spend the Sunday quiet- ly at the Southern Hotel, remaining in his foom and receiving few callers. He said he would leave for Memphis either to-night or to-morrow morning. On his way to St. Louis Mr. Bryan learned that his sister was ill at Salem, III. He had decided to start for Salem after ™ making his last speech here, but he received message stating that his sister was much _,. Before retiring last night he said he would not go to Salem unless he should receive _ Smother message saying his sister was _ ‘erse.

BUT IS NOT CERTAIN THAT LIT- TLE ALICE IS SHE. INFANT DROMIOS WERE MIXED. The Missing Mother Must Be Found or Agnes Will Continue to Weep. Alice Florsheim is the name of the &- months-old baby now in the care of Mrs. Dora Taylor at 1126 Michigan avenue, but the mother of the child is unknown, She may be Miss Agnes Stuernberg and she may not. That is a question which that young woman herself cannot deter- mine. Miss Stuernberg is the mother of a child, and it is said to be in the care of Mrs. Tay-/ d lor, and yet she is not certain, : The treuble is that Mrs. Taylor mixed babies, and thereby became as much mixed as men who mix mixed drinks and things. Last night Miss Stuernberg called at the Four Courts and was in consultation with an Chief Kiely for more than an our. ö She was heavily veiled, and when the in- terview was at an end the gallant and ac- commodating Chief dexterously whisked her out the side door of his office, and she would have vanished in the darkness but for the watchfulness of a Post-Dispatch re- Hamilton er. ton To him Miss Stuernberg, after.much per- trange on, revealed the s ntile Dromios. 1 to a girl baby at home, story of the she gave birth, North Ninth! for a guardian to the fatherless infant, aan’ | among the replies was one which was se- lected. The child then became the sses- sion of a Mrs, Cotrell, colored, at North Eighth street. At that time Mrs. Cotrell lived next to the yard of a second-hand dealer, but now she cannot be found. She has moved. The police would like to find her, not that they desire her arrest, but that she may be able to throw some light on the matter under consideration. Alice Stuernberg, to Cotrell residence and, finding no use there, inquired of the neighbors about the in- fant. Then it was found that Mrs. Cot- voll had named the baby Filorgheim, after a ary ds clerk of her ecquaintance. But she soon grew tired of supporting a white woman’s child and gave it to Mrs. Dora Taylor. The latter prom to care for the infant to the best of her ability, but the ‘trouble with Mrs. Taylor was that about the same time she undertook the care of another infant, of the same sex, complexion and age of the Florsheim babe. In time they became mixed, and which was which Mrs. Taylor could not tell. The other — eg gcse — al awe — to Mrs. Taylor through a 8 8 who, on leaving the baby, gave $100 for its care. Now, what the police are trying to solve is, which child is which, and as Miss Stuernberg is unable to identify her off- spring, all parties concerned are in a quan- S 0 child. is desirous of finding the then be able to ss Stuernberg missing mother, for she may to recover her own child.

But even when what Parkhurst calls ““odnfidence” is at its fullest, not a wheel can turn, not a mill can work, not a bushel of grain or a bale of cotton can be moved to market without paying toll to usury. The grip of the usurer is on the throat of business in the United States as it never was on that of any other great country, Speculator and usurer play into each others hands. Science progresses and electric motors are discovered. New street railroads are built. The speculator bonds them at the rate of four dollars of debt for one of capital actually invested. On this debt the public must pay usury. Steam railroads are capitalized on the same principle and the usury | comes out of the wheat, corn and cotton moved to the East as it does out of the stocks of goods moved from the East. Cash is kept so scarce by usurious control of money that from the poorest farmer up to the strong corporation about to engage in manufacturing, usury must have its toll before anything can be done. We are paring England alone a ruinous interest rate on five thousand million dollars—a sum ‘great enough to keep us constantly on the verge of panic if England is allowed to further con- tract.our supply of cash, and to force us to new bond issues as a means ‘of sus- to hold against the world. taining the gold corner which England, with its Wall street agents, is attempting It would be difficult to characterize properly the conduct of such preachers as Parkhurst, who, for the sake of pandering to the base passions of cupidity and avarice among the powerful money dealers and credit-brokers of their congrega- tions, wrest the scriptures and pervert the law. Perhaps it may be said that as mercenary politicians, preaching from the pulpit, they cannot be expected to talk intelligently on questions of morals, but as professional exponents of the letter of scripture, they have no right to ignore even if they dare not attempt to advocate the theory of right and wrong embodied in such passages as this from the twenty- fifth chapter of Leviticus: And if thy brother be waxen poor and fallen in decay with thee, then thou shalt relieve him. ‘Yea, though he be a stranger and sojourner, that he may live with thee. Take thou no usury of him or increase, but fear thy God, brother may live with thee. that thy Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury nor lend thy victuals for increase. I am the Lord, your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God. Then if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bond servant. Is this treason? - Is it anarchy? Nothing could be more solemn, more explicit, more direct! It strikes home against the greatest evil which now afflicts man- 2 of non-productive,; parasitic, beginning and panic in the end. i irst dare not read it from what he calls “God's putpit* If he did— underste kine 1, H A child can which forces usurious c * in its spirit, he would be discharged as soon as the brokers, stock- ther plutocrats in the Board of Control of a him out, 8 of. the enormous uss Aactod by ‘domestic and ig could get to- 11 ‘ 7 f — foreign leg ot te Misslssi py pi Valley are waxing poor, and when * 5 Deing compelled to serve as bond-servants, Wall street, 0 reign by divine ‘sacrilegious traitors, as dangerous anarchists. right, calls upon its Balaams to curse them But when the Parkhursts go out to begin the cursing, let them take care lest their feet be crushed against the Wall, as happened to the first Balaam. Sooner or later treachery and false pre- tense which have hidden their deeds in the closet must proclaim them from the house-top. It is the law of human nature and it cam never be otherwise. — © -—--— THE “METROPOLITAN PRESS. 15 The Wall Street press is congratulating itself upon the opposition to Bryan of a number of alleged Democratic news- papers. The Globe-Democrat says there are 200 newspapers in the United States which supported Cleveland in 1892 that are now opposing Bryan's election. The great Plutocratic interest which grew out of the civil war and began to assume form in our politics a quarter of a century ago, first fastened itself upon the Republican party. As the prospect of a Democratic restoration grew it reached out for the control of that organization, Its beneficiaries were found in both the great parties. They. divided on political lines so as the better to control both parties, They looked carefully after the, polit- ical machinery. They overlooked no point of organization. By stealth and indirec- tion they packed the National Democratic Committee with men who would use the great power of that body in controlling party action, to serve their ends. The same tactics were employed in getting control of State committees in all States vital to their plans. But, realizing the truth of Jefferson’s dictum that the ‘liberties of a people are safe so long as a free and uncorrupted press remains, they devoted their atten- tion to getting control of great news- papers, And they were successful, for they had unlimited money. Slowly but surely the men in editorial control of journals who would not abase themselves and betray the people, have been forced out, and men with money to invest in newspapers as “strictly business enter- prises“ put in. What may we expect from this condi- tion? We can reasom by analogy to correct conclusions. When Democrats learned of their betrayal what availed committees, National or State? What availed the party machinery? What availed a traitor in the White House? And what, above all, availed the weak afd puny yoice of that “metropolitan press” to control which so much of schem- ing had been devoted? On the surface of the rushing waters they were but old, rotten and dismantled floodgates swept away by the seething tide. The “metropolitan press“ was against Jackson and for the United States Bank, but the people were for Jackson and against the “metropolitan press.” And the n, won. — witt win again.

Queen Victoria purchases almost every new book of note published, and her ex- penditure on literature of all sorts is over $6,000 per annum. The Duchess of Westminster is known among her friends as an ardént cricketer, and she is said to be in particular a bowler of some considerable skill. Mercedes, Princess of the Asturias, who was Queen of Spain for a few months before the birth of her little brother, has just com- pleted her sixteenth year. She is not pretty, but has beautiful e¥es and black hafr. Mrs. Bardsley, mother of the Bishop of Carlisle, died recently at the age of 94. She had seven sons, all of whom took holy or- ders. Her husband, too, was a clergyman, They were intimate friends of Charlotte Bronte, The Duchess de Dino, who is an American by birth, is a remarkably bright business woman, personally supervising her large es- tate herself. She recently ordered a thir- teen-story building to be erected in New York, and before completion she has rented eight floors, the contract for the rental of the fourth floor for a term of years having now been completed for $50,000. Some time ago the Duchess purchased a valuable busi- ness site for $300,000, and it was there she had the above mentioned building erected. SMILES BETWEEN SERMONS.

The men and boys, too, are almost equally proud of the achievements of their colored brethren, and swell the crowd mightily. Funny paragraphers and the artists of the comic papers have joked on the time-hon- oredness of the average minstrel joke until the journalistic joke has become as much of a chestnut as the minstrel joke it de- rides. As for the average minstrel himself— well, as a rule he goes the pace that kills and seldom attains old age, put there are ex- ceptions. It is just twenty years ago that Barlow, Wilson, Primrose and West formed a partnership and made in that day and generation the strongest minstrel organiza- tion on the boards. Milt Barlow is dead, but three of the original four which had things all their own way in '76 were again seen together last week on the boards of the Olympic. In 1876 the “Sweet Bye and Bye” was in the height of its popularity, and it was sung, and beautifully sung, by the members of the Barlow, Wilson, Prim- rose and West aggregation of talent. It was the piece de resistance of the first part. It is a coincidence, or a justification of the funny paragraphers aforesaid, that when Primrose dances his quickstep it is to the tune of the “Sweet Bye and Bye“ in fast measure. And George Wilson—well, George never changes with the changing years, and when he says “I could die right here, gyurls,“ just as he did long years ago, the boys and girls of to-day laugh as unre- servedly as their fathers and mothers did before them. And why not? It is new to them. Avast with the cynical critic who would have ever new jokes for his personal amusement. Let him give the present generation a chance to laugh at the same jokes he laughed at, and his forefathers before him. The axiom that there is nothing new under the sun applies to jokes as ‘to other things. If any one doubts this let him get out his Joe Miller and he will recog- nize all the current favorites—a little differ- ently worded, perhaps, to suit changed con- ditions, but the same old friends just the same. It has been discovered by sanitary scien- tists and statisticians that red liquor and plain every-day rain are more intimately réiated, considered as cause and éffect, than man has heretofore wot of. It was at-a congress of sanitarians held at New- castle, England, that this great truth was turned loose, and it was backed up by sta- tistics. It was shown that the crop of plain and ornamental @tunks in the police courts was regulated by the weather strictly. A wet spell was always productive of an in- crease in convictions, while in dry, sunshiny weather the minimum was reached. The death rate, it seems, in Manchester and Liverpool is higher than in London. The reason for this, after close examination into the facts, is attributable to the greater amount of rain on the west coast of England than on the east, and to the various diseases and negligence of health which result from the more abundant use of liquor, and the physical degeneration following in the train of habitual drunkenness, Hurrah for the scientiste who furnish us a brand new excuse for resorting to the cup which inebriates, and renders us obliv- fous to the wet without so long as our in- Here's looking at you, men of science, and may it rain hard and often. Hereafter when a gentleman reaches home in a gentlemanly condition of inebriety, he may, ignoring all time-honored excuses, and having no further necessity to resort to lying, meet calmly his wife’s reproaches and those of his wife’s mother, with the convincing argument, “Why, you know, Maria, it rained to-day.” The mosquito is a much-abused bird. The wits never tire of deriding and caricaturing the Jersey breed, as monsters given over wholly to blood greediness and profanity production. But the gentle skeeter has his good points as well as his sharp ones. He now appears in the role of burglar alarm, and the success of his first appearance gives promise of great results in the future if he is encouraged to continue, and not barred out from ali intercourse with man by rude nettings and screens. Did not the humble goose save Rome from destruction on an occasion, and shall the skeeter not be given a chance to achieve fame? If Mr. Sebastian Wacht of New York had been one of your selfish kind who deny the right of the insect world to hive off their natural food, ‘his house might have been despolled by mid- night marauders and himself slain—who knows? But Mr. Wacht, when he lays him down to sleep, does not shut out, with lat- ter-day ingenious contrivance, the skeeter and the house Hy, and to this generous and forbearing gustom he owes the salvation of his household goods. The burglar came, and the grateful skeeter, in return for the meal he had enjoyed, gave an extra deep stab, most opportunely, Mr. Wacht was awak- ened and put the burglar to flight: Let us no longer decry the humble skeeter, nor visit him with sudden n i 5 his merry song smites our ear. one to figure out who feels like it.

If one leaves his wife alone Sore th cigar store, he is liabie to find that a zealous policeman has run her in during his absence as an improper character, This is not an exaggerated statement. Such cases are 80 frequent that they no longer cause in- dignant protests of the press as they once did. Folks are becoming accustomed to the | ttle eccentricities of Gotham's intelligent pollcemen. Last week a respectable woman was found ill on the pavement. She was run in as a plain drunk. In vain she pro- tested that she was ill and not drunk. The policeman, in his superior wisdom, had heard that plea too often to be taken in by it. A Dispensary physician could have ascertainéd in a minute the prisoner's true condition, but it was not worth the trouble of finding out, so the poor woman was locked up for the night, denied the med- ical attention she needed, and in addition, was called on to bear the intense humilia- tion of being herded with criminals in a prison cell till court conyened next morn- ing. Then, of course, she was discharged. On the same night a woman took poison. The cause of her despondency wal the re- ceipt of an eviction notice. Her husband ran frantically to the nearest doctor. He responded through the speaking tube to the effect that he was tired and could not turn out, The husband was advised to get some other doctor, Advice is always cheap, whether it comes through a speaking tube, verbally or by letter. case. In vain the distracted husband tried to find a doctor who had heart enough to respond to the cry of distress unless a fat fee was assured in advance. When he reached home an hour or two later his wife was dead. At the Inquest the medical | testimony was that but for heartless phy- siclans her life would have Been sa ved. And, like the cases referred to above, this is not at allan uncommon one in the metrop- olis. In the course of an elaborate attempted refutation of the arguments of an English bimetallist, the Manchester (England) City News contends that labor in England is amply well paid because it is a single standard country. In another page of the same paper ts a lengthy article setting forth the grievances of the street railway drivers and conductors, whose average working day is fourteen and one-half hours, and the top pay for drivers the equivalent of $1 a day, while the conductors receive just 60 cents a day. Incidentally it develops that no time for meals ts allowed, the men eating cold lunches while en route. It stands to reason that if labor was plentiful and well paid the street railway corporations would be unable to secure enough men to man their cars at such miserable wages. But the con- trary is proved by the article itself. The men are afraid to protest because er | DY. places would be so easily filled. Little in- consistencies like this, however, never em- barrass the average British editor, ‘ — In Scotch Plains, N. J., an old man is in jail because one of his chickens “flew de coop“ and scratched up his neighbor’s yard. It was in vain that the old man pleaded he had committed no trespass, His hen had, and he was held responsible, He was fined $1 for not having a ball and chain on his hen's leg. The costs were $3.60 bestes, and under Jersey law he was committed to jail until both ere paid. Alliterative Jersey jus- tice still flourishes, , St. Louis is not the only elty to suffer from an incompetent and corrupt School Board. There are others, New York has 20,000 chil- dren of school age, running the streets and picking up the manners and morals of the streets, simply because there is no room for them in the public schools. The newspapers have published interviews with the Chief of Police and with the agent of the Gerry Society in order to prove that the old adage is true that “Satan finds some mischief still for idle hands to do.“ The press and people indignate mightily, | but the board pursues the even tenor of its way, and the 20,000 children remain out of school, later to populate the prisons and penitentiaries. St. Louis has a kick com- ing, but there are others. Even the burglar and the footpad is no longer safe from the new woman. Not only has she, in a few instances, entered these professions as a means ‘of livilihood, but she has cast off the whilom timorousness of the sex, and she now gives chase like a man to the midnight marauder, and the pocketbook snatcher, catches him, and de- livers him over to the guardian of the peace. Last week an enterprising burglar entered @ New York residence, which centained three lone, unprotected females. One of them, Mrs. Neary, caught and held him, but he was too strong and got away from her. Then the lady’s niece, Mamie.Cunningham, a 16-year-old girl, took up the chase, fol- lowed the burglar for a dozen blocks, 2 effected his capture.

HE A0 IS THE PEOPLY’S PAR- r NOMINATION, 4 LETTER ON’ ON BIMETALLISM. The — of Three Parties Slips Into Town to Fill Engagements. i 8 The second 9 of Candidate William J. Bryan to St. Louis was without pomp and s unostentatious as possible. In à closed carriage he was driven across he bridge from the great meeting at East St. Louls. Without incident he was taken to his hotel where he dined, napped a bit and then entrusted himself to the commit- tee that was to escort him to the Audl- torium. From the speaker’s stand in East St. Huls to the Eastern bridge approach his journey was a continued ovation. Cheering crowds followed his rapidly moving car- riage. Men lined the curbs and yelled until their throats were ready to split. Women waved their ’kerchiefs and added their shrill cries to the pandemonium of enthusiasm. At the eastern bridge entrance the mounted escort from the National Stock Yards gave three rousing cheers for the can- didate and wheeled about. After that Mr. Bryan had peace and quiet for a little while at least. It was a needed respite for never did laboring man work harder than did this candidate for the highest gift within the guffrages of the American people. Up to his arrival in St. Louis he had addressed sixteen different audiences dur- ing the day and he had yet to face two mighty gatherings that in numbers and enthusiasm would climax the meetings ef the day. For that reason he was slipped into | town and left undisturbed until it was ume to again undertake the labor of gpeech-making. When this closed carriage swung into Fourth street on its way to the Southern tt looked like any other carriage to the few pe- destrians on the street and there was no ra at the hotel. Mr. Bryan hurried through the ladies’ entrance and mounted the steps two at a time. He went through the spacious hall on the second floor at a double quick gait, his overcost collar turned up, and was safe in his room before many people recognized him. He received the members of the commit- tee of fifteen appointed by the local Demo- tic clubs. This committee went to East Louis to escort Mr. Bryan to St. Louis. They found the sub-committee of the Na- tional Association on the field and grace- fully yielded the honor of escorting the candidate. After a general handshaking Mr. Bryan ordered a pala steak, a baked potato and @ cup of coffee, which were gerved in the room. N After dining alone he had a short confer- ence with Gov. Stone amd took a short nap. At 8:30 he was escorted to the Auditorium hy the. following committee: James Hager- man, 8. S. Bass, A. C. Stanley, Joseph W. Falk, George W. Allen, Given Camp- bell, J. C. Harvey, H. T. Force, C. H. Wickard, C. H. Gregory, Charles Stark, W. 8. Logan, Adrian De Yong, Philip Ro- han and H. A. Guinsburg. Just before starting for the Auditorium Mr. Bryan gave out for publication the following letter of acceptance of the Popu- list nomination for President: Hon. mam V.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—One of the arrival in New York to-day is Moreton Frewen, the English bimetallist and Vice-President of the International League of Bimetallists, with headquarters in London. Mr, Frewen’s interest in the Pr ection now in progress was so great that e could not withstand the id as tee to run over and become a spec of the race between free silver er and 3 ne ge standard. He would neither admit ny that he might speak on the silver — but talked quite freely on the subject of bimetallism. “What do you think will be the result shoul the free silver ticket be successful?” he was asked. fter thinking a moment he Said . 9 2 ‘You had a panic here in 1893. you would have another if the silver dates were elected, but I do not believe that t would be sold. It would then be time for Americans to buy them back, when the subsequent restoration of values came, they would be large gainers. Eng- lishmen are ignorant on the silver question as yet. The average English merchant fears that if America sh go on a silver basis exports would almost cease, because gold would go to a premium of at least 10 or 20 per cent. They get their ideas from London merchants a X —. that a pre- mum on gold would be as bad as a prohibi- tive tariff. “As soon as America opens her mints to coin free silver India will follow suit. When 2. n act e of silver India shut down — follow America surely in bimetallism. “The new Prime Min- ister France, M. Meline, is a bimetaliist, and many smaller European powers are eager to use silver.’’ Mr. Frewen will travel about east of Chi- cago during the campaign and study the silver question in the various States. He will also visit friends here, for he is not a stranger In fact he has an American wife, Miss Jerome, one of the — sisters, and a sister to Lady Ch SENATOR COCKRELL. He Has Come to St. Louis to Rest on the Sabbath. Senator Francis Marlon Cockrell arrived in the city last evening from Hillsboro, where he spoke during the afternoon to an immense crowd. He will take a much needed rest in the city to-day end leave in the evening for Wellsviile, where he speaks %0-morrow Sentor Cockrell said to a Post-Dispatch reporter that he did not have time to re out any estimates, but believed the State would go Democratic by a larger majority than ever before. “The peop ple are thoroughly aroused,” he said, and they will be out election day.“ ROBBED A CHURCH.

CHAIRMAN JONES’ WAY :OF PRE- DICTING BRYAN’S ELECTION. —ͤ —— — THE PROSPECT iS GLOWING. A Confident and Convincing Statement of the Situation From Dem- ocratic Headquarters. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, IIL, Oct. 3.—Success is in the atmosphere in Democratic National head- quarters to-day, and there is no attempt to conceal it, The fact that the gold Demo- crats will be blocked from the ticket in Michigan, New York and Illinois, insures the Democrats of getting their issues fairly before the people. Other conditions adduce to the general rejoicing. Reports from all parts of the country indicate that the farm- ing vote has made up its mind not to be bull- dozed into continuing dear money and a falling market on the statute books. Evi- dence hes been compiled which demon- strates beyond a doubt that there will not be enough farming votes in IlMnois for Me- Kinley—or in fact, in any of the ground alleged to be debatable by the. Republicans to give the Canton Major a corporal’s guard. Having punctured the goldbug toy balloon, convinced the farmers and secured the workingmen, the Bryan managers have rea- son to feel proud and confident. Chairman Jones said to-day: “At no time | nave 1 felt that Bryan would fail, but now 14 as certain of his election as I am that to-day is Oct.3. Up to this we have felt that the Republicans were giving battle. But to-day we ane confident that it is a land- slide. Of course, we shall not relax energy or vigilance, but Bryan is certain to be the next President of our country. The people so will it.“ So brilliant are the prospects for complete Democratic success and so apparent is the intention ef the voters te declare for the cause of allver, that to-day the Demo- cratic National Committee issued the follow- ing statement of conditions throughout the country: “Convincing evidence is accumulating daily at National Demecratic headquarters that Mr. Bryan will sweep the Southern, Special to the Post-Dispatch.

The new Preduce and Fruit Exchange was informally opened yesterday afternoon and a reception held at the new structure on North Broadway. The big red brick build- ing occupying the entire half block on the east side of Broadway from Cass avenue to Dickson street, was thrown open to the commission and produce men for inspec- tion. On the second floor of the southern section there was a lunch and bar set up for additional entertainment. Those who visited the institution were well pleased with what they saw, and felt satisfied that St. Louis had added another ' strong feature to her list of large business projects. The Fruit and Produce Exchange has been built by the Louisville and Nashville Railway for the purpose of renting stores in the building to fruit and produce dealers MATRON Hanns. — Al DEATH'S DOOR.

His words were of the work- ingmen; their interests, their sufferings and the remedies. As point after point was made the audience signified their appre- ciation with cheers, but is was orderly en- thusiasm, kept in bounds by a desire to hear every syllable the speaker uttered. His speech was as follows: WHAT FREE COINAGE MEANS. Mr. Bryan’s Explanation From the Workingman’s Standpoint. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: For just a moment I desire to occupy your attention. We are in the midst of a cam- paign—a campaign which will be memora- ble in the history of this nation. I am not here to tell you how you ought to vote. I have too much respect for the sovereign- ty of the citizen, too much respect for your intelligence, too much respect for your rights to attempt to dictate to you or to control your political actions. But as the candidate of those who believe in the restoration of bimetallism I have the right to present myself before you and defend the principles for which I stand, in order that you may know whether I or some one else can make the better public servant. It is for you to say, and we who aro e@ildidates have no reason to criticise the manner in which you exercise the right of suffrage, provided you exercise that right yourselves, and neither allow it to be tak- en from you by intimidation nor surrender it for gain. We believe that the paramount issue of this campaign is the money ques- tion; we believe that the great question to be settled now is whether the American people are able to have a financial system of their own, or whether they must accept a financial system forced upon us by foreign nations. (Great applause.) Upon this question the line is clearly di- vided. The Republican platform declares in favor of the maintenance of the present gold standard for an indefinite period. The maintain the gold standard until foreign nations come to us and join in its abandon- ment. The platforms upon which I stand de- clares in favor of the restoration of bimet- allism, and they point out the only means by which bimetallism can be restored, name- ly, the immediate restoration ofthe free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at the present legal ration of 16 to 1 (applause), without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation. (Continued applause and cheering.) If the Republican y had “presented some system approved by the members of that party, we might then have discussed the merits of their proposed system. But . — — pete — — — Republican platform declares that we must The GLOBE'S Money-Ralsing Sale. | A Harvest in All Departments. S- E PAGE 28. N. W. Cor. Seventh and Franklin Av. they propose nothing. They offer no plan. They give no prospect of relief. They simply say to the porate who are dissatisfied, “you must still be dissatisfled.“ To those who are suffering, they simply say, “You must suffer on until relief comes from abroad.“ Iam not willing, my friends, that the Amer- ican people and their great destiny shall be transferred from the hands of the American ople and deposited with foreign nations, | care not what nations they may be. (Tre- mendous applause and long cheering.) something; our opponents pro- pose nothing. If you are satisfied with present financial conditions, then, my friends, the Republican party ought to suit you because the Republican party proposes We pro to continue present financial conditions, My friends, you have had the gold standard. | Our legislation has been suggested, it has been devised, it has been carried out by the advocates of the gold standard, and yet, after twenty years of successful application of their ideas, we find such an uprising of the people against the gold standard as this country has never seen before, (Great ap- plause.) Here is the argument which they cannot meet, It is the Rit of conditions. They may talk, if they Hike, about theories, but, my friends, here ars the stubborn facts, that they have run this government accord- ing to their ideas, and the longer they have run it the worse the people have suffered from their management. (Great applause.) Whenever we ask them to put more money into circulation, they tell us to just have more confidence and we will need less money, (Laughter.) My friends, we have run on confidence too long now. Men can be too confident. Men can have more confi- dence when they have food, but when they do they get hungry in spite of their confi- dence. (Laughter and applause.) Our op- ponents tell you that all you have to do is to believe and you will be all right. But. my friends, how can you believe when around you you find so many things that prevent belief? How can you believe that you are prosperous when you are not? You cannot have confidence of that kind. Now, my friends, our opponents are play- ing a confidence game on the American peo- ple. (Prolonged laughter and applause.) The confidence man has found his way into politics. You know that when a confidence man goes around the less confidence you have the more money you have when he goes away. (Great applause and laughter.) Our opponents would have you believe that under free coinage there would be a flood of money here, so much that you would not know what to do with it. If there are any of you who are afraid that there will be more a. 2 — — THE TRANSFORMATION IN WILLIAM J. BRYAN. / A N W i | Hf fy ö j W ~~ oC — was and 4 | | shows bow bir.

(Great applause.) Now, it is not difficult to understand the money ques- tion. Our opponents say, ‘Open up the mills instead of the mints.’ Yes, my friends, you can open up the mills as much as you want to, but if peopie can’t buy what the mills produce you will simply close the milis again. (Great applause.) The gold standard has destroyed the con- sumptive power of the people. They are as hungry as they ever were, but they have not so much money with which to buy food. They need clothing as much as they ever did, but they have not so much money to buy that clothing, and, my friends, you can- not restore prosperity by simply offering more goods for sale. You have got to re- store prosperity by making it possible for the people to buy the goods which are for sale. Under the gold standard the farmer found that his income has gone down while his debts and taxes have stubbornly refused to go down, and the result is that he has less and less money to spend in pur- chasing the things which his family need. The farmer finds that to him the gold stand- ard means that he must work double time to secure the same results that he used to secure. (Great applause.) But how a the When the farmer cannot buy then the manufacturer cannot employ the labor- ing man, and while the farmer has been compelled to work double time the labor- ing man does not get a chance to work half time under the = standard, (En- thusiastic applause). y friends, when our opponents tell us that the gold stand- ard is good for a man who earns wages they forget that a larger and larger num- ber of men each year are not earnin ; they forget that a larger larger num of men are finding that their services are unnecessary not be- cause of Over-production but because of under-consumptio And now, ing to array against the la are trying to two classes and laboring man? an = 28 — raising class issue d the party in this campaign has ag — 5 array class against class than any party ever did in any campaign in the history of this country (applause), and worst of all, my friends, worst of all, the b- lican party in this campaign is attempt. ing to compel the laboring men of this country, who work for wages, to vote against their own interests, under the threat of losing their jobs. (Great ap- plause and long cheering). They tell you that the Interest of one man is the interest of all. I tell you that there are questions which arise where men’s inter- ests differ. I might int you to one. I remember that in the House of Representa. tives @ bill was presented to compel the trains engaged in inter-state commerce to put such couplers on their cars as would protect the lives and limbs of their employ- es. I remember that for one whole night we stayed in session trying to get that bill before the House. (Applause.) rom even- ing round until daylight next morning we occupied our places in the House of Repre- sentatives, and I know that there, when we were trying to save the brakemen, and the switchmen, and the conductors, and the engineers, and the firemen, we found inst us the railroad attorneys who said that it would cost too much. (Applause and cheers.) 3 Snow — they measured the — of upler * ou HONEST MAN. 3 14 D — — — — — — —— — — oe we insisted that we had no right to treat the lives of other people’s brothers in a different way .from what we treat the lives of our own brothers, we could not touch the hearts of those men, who were sent to Congress by the railroads and obeyed them when they got there. My friends, I point that to you. I point to that as an instance where the interests of one were not the interests of all. If the railroad president and the railroad manager can compel his employes to vote for some railroad man to help the railroads, whenever a question comes up between the employer and the em- ployes, that man for whom the employe is compelled to vote will look out for the in- terests of the employer who commands the vote and not for the interests of the em- Ploye whose votes are traded for. (Ap- plause and cheers.) I might point to other questions. I might point to that plank in *he Chicago plat- form which declares in favor of @ arbi- tration of differences between railroads engaged in interstate commerce, and thet employes. Arbitration has nod been fore upon the attention of the Amer.can people by the railroads themselves. It is a de- mand of the laboring man and if the labor- ing men is not permitted to vote for this platform in favor of arbitration, how is arbitration going to be brought to the laboring man? (Applause Our platform declares for arbitration. ere ia no better ering, my friend, ever presented to the rer 3 can people than the demand for arbi- tra society has come up people of this country, from the corporations an eads of trusts and syndicates.

Railroads Interpret Broadly a Rule 7 Reducing Fares. OHICAGO, Oct. 8.—The chairman of the Western Passenger Association has granted relief to a number of the roads in that or- ganization in the matter of reduced rates to Canton, Ohio.

Some of the roads were of the opinion that the reduced rates of the Western roads be- Vv * rman has announced that this was not the meaning of the resolution under which the one-fare river the standpoint as to whether this displacement ill carry proper weights for efficient serv- vice as torpedo boats and this matter is now being considered by the bureaus. If the decision of the department should be averse to this proposition the next lowest bids on their face would be those of the Herreschoff Manufacturing Co. Their bid, t however, appears to be a qualified one as to the speed and mes be rejected as not com-. lying with the law. for the larger boats the next lowest bid- ders will be the Bath Iron Works for two and the Union Iron Works for one. The two questions, therefore, before the depart- ment are: Will the three smaller boats of the Bath Iron Works meet the requirements of the service? If not is the Herreshoff bid to de considered invalid and not entitled to consideration? Lastly, would the two boats of the Bath Iron Works and the one of the Union Iron Works meet the re- quirements of the service? ASKING PRICE REDUCED.

How. to Get a Great Reference Work at the Cost of Paper and Ink. Not long ago the Western Newspaper Syn- dicate conceived the happy idea of distrib- uting among readers on remarkably favor- able terms a certain number of sets of that great reference work, the Encycloped- ic Dictionary. The project met with such widespread ap- preciation that tthe enterprise extended far beyond’ the bounds out, and many thousands of sets of ‘the work were placed in homes that probably would never have possessed it at the regu- lar price of $42 per set. In the course of the distribution, which involved the handling, packing and unpack- ing of many thousands of these sets, now and then a volume in some set was slightly and therefore withheld: from ship- ment. These sets, of course, might be re- bound and. gent out, but the Syndicate, instead of doing this, ‘proposes to distribute them at a nominal price. The most serfous injury to any set is no use in one’s home or office. is also payable in small monthly amounts, 80 that thane who may ‘have found the former price too high may now possess one of these special sets at.a cost entirely with- in reach, both as to price and payment. One dollar is all the cash required, and the full set delivered at once, with the privi- leke of returning within a week and money refunded. The Syndicate’s address fs 8. E.

The igs was clearly pointed out in the Chicago platform. The danger which was impending was pointed out by Thomas Jefferson, who said if the Govern- ment was ever imperiled it would be through the Federal courts, 22 The subject he wished to speak upon was what is known as Government by Injune- tion. He produced a paper four feet long, which had been given him by an employee of the Missouri Pacific Railway. This, he said, was an order with the seal of me Government upon it, commanding the workingman not to stop work and com- manding him not to stop his fellow man from working. It did not forbid any crime, it did not forbid any wrong, it merely for- bade men stopping work. Mr. Lee Meriwether told the story of Sen- ator Vest’s dream, when he thought he had died and gone to the lower regions. The devil showed him all around and pointed out the points of interest until they finally came to one particularly hot room where some men were lounging over a particularly hot fire. He asked the Devil who these men were and was told that they were working men who had been green enough to believe in the gold standard and they were so green that he had not yet.been able to dry them out i a Mr. Meriwether went over the history of the two national conventions at some length and pointed out how often the efforts of th® money powers had been foiled by the good sense of the people. In conclusion he urged every man to re- member that he had not the right to vote at the coming election until he had regis- tered upon one of the three days. When Mr. Meriwether had finished Mr. Miller said that Mr. Bryan would be along shortly, but that in the meantime he wauld introduce a gentleman who knew something of the personal character of Mr. Bryan. He then introduced Dr. C. M. Rosser of Terrell, Tex., Superintendent of the North Texas Insane Asylum and one of the leading Democrats of Texas. Dr, Rosser ks like Mr. Bryan and spoke up for him strongly. He knew W. J. Bryan when he was Bryan of Nebraska. Now he was not W. J. Bryan of Nebraska, 8 the United States, but W. J. Bryan of the whole world. Bryan was the appointed leader to go to the head 6f the workingmen and lead them out of the perils by. which 8 were surrounded. 883 e told of Bryan’s career before he became a candidate for President, and how Mr. Bryan felt and talked when he knew that nomination was impending.

A Powerful Tribe Has Risen and Men- aces German Rule on the P East Coast. — BERLIN, Oct. 3.—The sensational news that Roumania and Greece have joined the Dreibund and that the formal agreements to this effect were signed at Bucharest during the presence there of Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria, after the open- ing ‘of the canal through the Iron Gates of the Danube, is being discussed in political circles here. | The statements made are believed to be correct and are regarded as-being of prime importance, for the Dreibund will thus have valuable allies in these two countries in the event of the disruption of Turkey or any serious complications in the East. King Charles of Roumania has long been anxious. to join the Dreibund, but it was only lately that a binding bargain, accept- able to all parties, ve drawn up. It is ex- ected that Servia also will join the Drei- und as soon as the influence of ex-Queen Natalie, who is a Russophile, is overcome. The general uprising of the Wahehes, the powerful and warlike trie of an Fast Africa, is causing much uneas in colon- ial circles here a elsewhere. The Wahe- hes, who met with a crushing ‘defeat from German troops a couple of years ago, have this time been incited by Arab chiefs and aed have excellent weapons and equip- ments. The rebellion sems to be spreading around the whole Tanganyika region and the troops available are much too weak to cope with it. In the meanwhile Gov. Wissmann is lingering here, unwilling to return to his post in East Africa, owing to his shattered health, though he is being urged to do so. The Government is not inclined to ask the Reichstag for a large increase in the num- ber of German East Africa troops, in view of the big colonial budget, although the present force is quite inadequate. A convention of representatives of all the Prussian cities of over 25,000 inhabitants has been held in Berlin and a permanent organ- ization effected. The purpose of the assem- bly was to formulate opposition to the growing tendency of the Prussian Govern- ment in favor of agrarian interests at the expense of the interest of the cities and to obtain the abolition of the privileges enjoyed by Government officials, clergymen and teachers in municipal taxation.

BRUSH IS WORKING.- TREMENDOUS PLANOF PLUNDER Will Rob Franchise Holders of Valua- ble Base Ball Property in Four Cities. , MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 3.—Another base ball war is on, but it will not reach the pro- portions that the brotherhood war in 1891 did. This time ft is between John T. Brush of the Indianapolis club and John Goodnow of the Minneapolis club on one side and the remaining six members of the Western League on the other. Notwithstanding re- ports to the contrary, Messrs. Brush and Goodnow have made application to the Na- tional League Board to have protection withdrawn from the Western League on the ground that the agreement entered into with the National League has been vio- lated in more than one instance, and they ask in return that protection be granted them for the purpose of forming another league similar to the Western League, with the exception that they will elect what cities they desire. When ft me evident that there was trouble ah for the Western League, Pres. ident Johnson called a meeting of the man- agers in Milwaukee for this morning. Man- ning and Comiskey could not attend for the reason that they could not sibly reach Milwaukee in time. G. D. Vanderbeck ar- rived here last evening and with President Johnson held a private conference in the office of Attorney Killilea. They mapped their plan of action, which will be to vigorously oppose Brush and Goodnow be, ore e Board of the National League. Messrs. Johnson and Killilea were a nted a. committee to go to New York plead their case before the board. They left at 4 o’clock this afternoon for Chicago and after a conference with Jim Hart of the 22 club they will start for New York and reach there in time to attend the meeting of the board at the Fifth Avenue Hotel Monday morn- t is certain that should the National League Board decide to withdraw protection from the Western League, an injunction wW.ll be secured at once, preventing the carrying out of the 1 ry plans. The latest story in regard to the war is to the effect that a new will be f and that the league ormed Eastern circuit will be made of Chicago, In- dianapolis, Columbus and another good city near the Ohio line. The Western end would include Milwaukee, Minneapolis and Omaha and either St. Paul or Des Mo‘nes. “The whole thing is nothing more or less than a put up job of Brush to destroy the Western League because he could not con- trolit. Because he could not run the West- ern League as he does the National organ- ization he wants to ruin it. If his scheme through he will rob the owners of the ansas City, Detroit, St. Paul, Milwaukee and other franchises out of thousands of dollars. The Kansas City franchise is worth $15,000, but it won't be worth a cent if Brush’s plan goes through. Jimmy Man- ning, Comiskey, Vanderbeck, Loftus and other Western League magnates will be de- liberately robbed out of thousands of dol- lars if Brush puts his nefarious scheme through the Board of Arbitration, of which he is a prominent member. TEMPLE CUP GAMES. Joe Corbett Proved Himself No Faker by Beating Cleveland. BALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 2 Brother Joe” Corbett was the star in to-day’s Temple Cup game, and under his skillful general- the Orioles took the second game of the series with quite as much ease ag they did the game of yesterday. The crowd was ag@in provokingly small, owing no doubt to the threatening weather, the sky being over- cast with heavy clouds that looked as if rain might fall from them at any minute. Captain Tebeau was not able to play, and it is now said that his injuries are of such a nature as to preclude the probability of his taking part in Monday’s game, which, by the way, may not be played in Baltimore. The slim attendance here has so greatly discouraged the players that there is strong talk of ＋ 15 the third game either in Pittsburg or Cincinnati, en route to Cleve- land, and if the base ball cranks of the Forest City do not turn out in greater num- bers than they have in Baltimore, it is not unlikely that another of the games may be fought out on neutral grounds. To-day’s contest was one-sided to a degree that de- pee it of much of its interest, although t abounded in good plays. The score tells the story: RALTIMORE. CLEVELAND.

The other power yachts of the Illini Yacht Club will be the Virginia, Rambler and Plasa. The El Rio Rey and Ouatoga will be en- tered as scratch, and will have to give time allowances to the smaller launches, The Illind Yacht Club has a syndicate yacht, the Marion, which they will enter in the half-rater class for sailing yachts. and under the management of Capt. Boyd will compete for the Commodore’s cup. Tho races will consume the entire day and will begin promptly at 10 a. m. The power yachts will e between Arsenal Island and the Eads Bridge. The sailing yachts’ course will be deter- mined on the day of the races. Mr. Fred Medart has offered a spectal prize for power yachts belonging to any organized yacht club on the Mississippi River. The conditions will be substantially the same as in the club race, and it will take place over the same course. many disadvantages, but will give the visi- tors a run for the prize. It will not be the walkover it was last year, as the St. Louis Yacht Club had no entry in this event. It was simply a competition between the power boats of the Illini Yacht Club. . e El Rio Rey has an all steel hull, three waver tight compartments, a double equipment of engines and boilers and a full complement of the best safeguards against accident known to marine science. She has a handsome cabin, finished in white enamel, a sheltered deck space, toilet room, and is equipped with twin screws. As the regatta takes place on a pwblic holiday it is expected that the river front will be quite alive th humanity. The Eads Bridge will afford thousands the op- 03 pad ‘of seeing the race from start to nish. i Entries for Fair Cycle Meet. One mile novice—Walter 8. Miller, Oscar F.

DEAD ANIMAL WAGON NEEDED To Cart Away Deceased Nags From the Fair Grounds Race Track— Sporting News. Ed Butler’s “dead animal” wagon was badly wanted at the Fair Grounds race track yesterday afternoon. St. Augustine, that dastard full brother to the great Firenzi, would have made a nice subject for the Colonel’s swell foundry down in South St, Louis and it is entirely safe to say that a deader“ animal than the handsome St. Augustine never passed the gates of any rendering establishment. Indeed, the big horse was so dead that his carcass seriously offended the blunted olfactory nerves of the regular goers to the races. t. Augustine was, on his good race a few days ago, installed a warm favorite in the third race at 13 to 5. It looked like a moral for the black nag, and a big Saturday crowd went down on him with ali the money they had. That the speculators were given a shock when the treacherous brute came in away back in the track goes without say- ing. Oh, the undertakers did a nice job on the Saint yesterday. He was nicely embalmed and laid —— 4 in cold storage. One of, these days he will do the resurrection act And the public will get hurt again. Outside of St. Augustine’s decease noth- ing of impertance or uncommon took place at the track. There were the same old sharks and the same evergreen suckers, some of whom will be sharks to-morrow. That is the rule of the race track. The pi- eon of to-day being plucked, grows the eathers and hooked carnivorous beak of the hawk of to-morrow, and is ready to do some plucking himself. There were the DOIN G HE THREW HIS same old wise gang, Honig, McGuigan, Ryan, Rodegap, Rice, Weatherford et al. in the quarter stretch. The same old judges | were in the stand and the same old start- ' ers sent them off. Even Frank James looked | too familiar and you ceased to look at his | peaceful, loquacious face and wonder if he real did ever hold up an army or go through a bank. Even such an interesting character as Mr. James palls upon you when | you see him every day for six months. The first race on the card was at one mile for 3-year-olds and upwards. Nineteen were ed to start, but the very poor lot scratched out leaving seven to start. Mer- maid was the first to show to a fair start. She received about two lengths the best of it througb a running break. Dennis was next with Irksome third. Mermaid led to the three-eighths pole where Couronne D'Or took command and led to the stretch, leading by one and one-half lengths with Roundelay now a neck before Mermaid. in a driving finish Roundelay received the verdict by a nose—with Mermaid a short head in front of Couronne D’Or, who was four lengths in front of her field. The second race for 2-year-olds at five furlongs, India was a prohibitive favor- ite at 3 to 5, but the choice was pounded to 1 to 2 in short order. After an excellent start Juanita led the lot with Horseshoe Tobacco next and India third. Juanita was leading to the stretch with Nina Lou- ise always second, when India came through and galloped in winner by one length with Nina ulse eight lengths in front of Cremona Briggs a good third. Briggs was as good as 4 to 1 to show. St. Augustine was the choice in the third race at 13 to 5. He finished abso- lutely last, although off well, to a fair start. Gold Corn was off in front and led throughout, never being headed, won easily enough. The feature of thé day was the next on the card at one mile and one-sixteenth. Johnny McHale was seemingly thrown in at 88 pounds. After his good race of Monday the very | liberal price of 3 to 1 was laid against him in the opening betting, but he was pounded to 9 to 5 at post time. The next in demand was Garland Bar at 16 to B. The start was good. Bar led with Muskalonge next ani Topmast third. McHale was off fifth, but he rapidly went to the front, Garland Bar being second all the way into the stretch. McHale won hard ridden by a head from Schiller, who was coming strong and fin- ished three lengths before Garland Bar, who was a length before Pepper. The fifth race on the card was at six furlongs, with seven carded to start, but three scratched out, leaving Moylan, Bryan, Damocles and McKeene to start. Moylan was a prohibitive choice at 7 to 10 and was backed strongly, being a 1 to 2 chance at post time. He failed to score, although off well and kept so throughout Damocles went to the front at the quarter and, well ridden by Garner, who seems to have regained his old-time form, he finished first by a length, with Moylan com- ing strong and lengths before Bryan, with McKeene well back in the rear. Damocles was a 5 to 2 shot, going up in the betting from 11 to 5. The sixth race brought balm to the play- ers and a wild shout of joy went up when the well-backed Harry Duke, a.8 to 1 shot, passed the post in front of his field. The public were on him and went home half sat- isfled for the knock downs given them in the early afternoon. Summaries: Sixth race, 6 furlongs—Harry Duke, (T. Murphy), 3 to 1, won; J.. A. Grey, 105 (C. Slaughter), 3 to 2, second; Hester, 98 (Webster), 5 to 1, third. Time, 1:14%. Ter- ror, 944, and Senalba III., 98, also ran.

THE GAME WILL BE GOVERNED BY A UNIFORM CODE OF RULES. ELIMINATION OF MASS PLAYS. “Pair Catch’ and Other Rules Defined for the Benefit of the Players. : „ Foot ball, as it will be played in the colleges and schools of America this fall, will be governed by a uniform code of rules. Last year, it will be remembered, three sets prevailed. The Harvard-Penn- sylvania-Cornell .code governed games among those colleges; the Yale-Princeton rules were in vogue at the big match on Manhattan Field, while the compromise Harvard-Princeton set were in sway during soil. In a tion to th the inf respect, A. C. of this city eng 4 meeting of noted foot ball la cluding Walter Camp of Tal Sears of Harvard, Alexander Princeton, John C. Bell of Pe: L. M. Dennis of Cornell, and Pat? iel of the United States Naval Su These men, without a particle of prejud.. and no axes to grind, turned out a code o. rules which are considered to be the best that have ever been in force, says the New York Sun. They are intended to govern foot ball all over the country, and have not t by the Inter- —— a —— n, alone, du ave also Harvard, Pennsylvania In the work of establishing new rules the old regulations were taken for 4 basis. It was found necessary to shange the wording of many of the rules which were ambiguous, but their original conditions the same. The most important changes in the new code are those relating to the ‘fair catch’ and “scrimmage.” The fair catch rule is plainly = and if strictly enforced should prevent the old roughing which cgused so much trouble. In order to make a “fair catch” the man who takes the ball must now put his heel in the ground where he catches it. If he is inter ered with in any way by an opponent who is “off side, or is thrown after receiving the ball and heeling down, he will receive an advance of fifteen yards for the offense. But if, after catching the ball and heeling, he begins to make ground, he will be open to @ tackle from the other side. After making a “fair catch,” in acordance with the rule, the opponents must retire ten yards from the catcher’s heel mark in order tha: he may have no trouble in paras the 8 2 a pun rop or ‘ . again, either by a punt, 23 mark. This rule is practically the same as the one in force 42 years ago, except that the pen- alty is heavier. : In the “scrimmage” the new rule will be welcomed by those who have constantly protested against alleged brutality. The old momentum plays have been practically done away with, and mass plays are re- stricted in two ways. The rule that no player shall take more than a single step, | except one man who may be in motion be- fore the ball is put in play, will unques- tionably stop almost all kinds of momen- tum plays. The further sti ulation that five men must be in the rush line at all times when their side is in possession of the ball will also restrict the former mass plays, such as the flying wedge, composed of nearly every player on the team. To make this clearer to the novice, sup- posing in a game between Yale and nce- ton the Tigers have the ball. In addition to a full back, two halves and a quarter back behind the line, they have the privi- lege of bringing back any two men in their rush line. ut there is also a condition which governs the formation back of the line, and ‘which will prove a most import- ant factor. -It provides that when the ball is put in play and five players, not includ- been indorsed by and Cornell. inside of the positions occupied by the play- ers at the ends of said line, two of the five men must be at least five y back. All of the men, however, can be nearer than five yards to the rush line if two of them are outside the end itions. By this it is meant that only three men in a bunch can ush through a hole made by the man who 2 in motion before the ball is snapped back.

SHE WANTS 10 FIND ROBINSON. A FAIR STENOGRAPHER CLAIMS SHE WAS SWINDLED. BOUGHT A PATENT RIGHT. An Advertisement Addressed to Wo- men Alleged to Have Had a Fraudulent Purpose. . Gaul. In the St. Louis Sunday papers of Sept. 6, appeared a want advertisement calling upon women with $330 capital to address G. A. Robinson, temporariiy in St. Louis rep- resenting a well-established paying busi- ness. ‘ A well-known young woman stenographer who answered the advertisement, wrote the Post-Dispatch yesterday denouncing Mr. Robinson as a fraud. 9 She states in her letter that Mr. Robinson (although she does not believe that is his real name), represents that his headquar- ters are at 634 Sixth street, New York City. He claims to have a copyright on a press- less flexible roll letter copying book.“ The young woman states that his scheme is to call in person upon all who answer his “ad.” and engage them as State — to represent his copyright and control agents he is to appoint in every town of 1,000 in- habitants. | The State agent is to eupply these sub- s the business.

HE MADE MANY SPEECHES. People Turned Out by Thousands All Along the Road to Hear 3: Mr. Bryan left Cincinnati on the special car of President Peabody of the Baltimore & Ohio at 7:50 a.m. Saturday. The car was in charge of Railroad and Warehouse Com- Missioner Cantrell of Illinois and Allen W. Clark, State Committeeman of Indiana, and National Committeeman Woodson of Ken- tucky. Lawrenceburg was reached at 7:37. and the platform erected near the depot was surrounded by a great crowd Of ex- pectant and enthusiastic people. They cheered the nominee as he made his way from the car to the 8 He said: Mr. Chairman and Ladies and Gentle- men—Tnis is commencing the day’s work pretty early, but we have to make up in public speaking and in hard work what we lack in daiiy newspapers and campa.gn funds for the circulation of literature. Therefore we have to get up earlier than our opponents, and I believe that most of us are better acquainted with getting up early than they are, anyhow. As I came upon the stand I met a gen- tleman who said ke had been a Repub- lican, but he was going to vote for silver this year. That has got to be quite a com- mon phrase. I do not go into any com- munity without finding that there will be Republicans there who have boasted of their fidelity to the Republican party from the time of Fremont or Lincoln until this year, But this year is different. There is a reason for these changes, There is a reason why men who have hoped that the Republican party would obtain relief from present financial conditions; there is a rea- son why these men, this year, have to look elsewhere for remedial iegisiation. The Republican party has been holding out a prospect for bimetallism. It has been declared that the American people from tra- dition and interest desired bimetallism. But this year the Republican party says that while the American people may desire it, they cannot have it until other nations bring it to them. (Applause.) That is the new doctrife. I want you to remember that it is the first time in the history of this country that any great party ever pro- posed that the legislation of this country should be dependent upon the will of people in foreign countries. (Applause.) The platform of the Republican 8 says this year that bimetallism is desirable, be- cause it pledges the party to get it as soon as it can get other nations to help us. Me says the American people cannot have tha desirable thihg. I am not willing to believe that the American people are going do ac- cept a financial system ready- e from @broad. Our opponents tell us that the tariff issue is the great issue. Until they put a pro- hibitory tariff on foreign financial policies, they cannot talk tariff to me. (Great Ap- plause.) I want to impress upon your minds that it is not suff.cient to elect a President who is in favor of free coinage, because the President can do novhing until the bell reaches him, and the bill cannot reach him unless the Senate and the House are in favor of free coinage. The Senate is in favor of it, and the House must be, before free coinage can be realized. I shall not be satisfied with merely my election. I want a Congress that will give to you the free and unlimited coinage of silver without wa:ting for dhe aid or consent of any other nation. At Augusta there was another big crowd in waiting. To them Mr. Bryan said: The cause which we repesent is not a new cause. There is ‘nothing experimental in the plen which we are 8 We are not frying to make the gold or silver dollar larger or smaller, They are to remain the same size. But we want more of both than we have now. (Applause.) When we ask that our mints shall be open when the peo- ple desire them open, regardless of what other nations may say or think or do, we simply restore a policy that was the policy of this country until silver was stricken down in the dark and without public discus- sion Our opponents are afraid that we will have too much money. I am willing to let my opponents have the bia of every man whose exeprience has taught bim to be afraid of having too much money if I ean have the vote of every man whose ex- perience has taught him to fear a dearth of money more than a flood. (Applause.) I am glad that we are going to have more recruits from other parties than the Demo- crats have lost. * Osgood turned out in force to hear the candidate, who said: I have felt an interest in the subject of bimetallism for six years. Before that I never thought the money question amount- ed to anything. hen heard people speak of the money power I thought they were a harmless sort of cranks and that there was no such thing. But the more I have studied the subject the more import- ant did the money question become and the more firmly I became convinced that underlying all our difficulties was our finan- cial legislation, and that until our organic system was taken out of the hands of the money changers and administered in behalf of the whole people there could be no permanent prosperity among the Amer- ican people. (Applause.) We have seen in this campaign what the money power means. We have seen banks attempt to intimidate the people who owe the banks, and we have seen this great money power reachin out from money centers 0 and uttin its hands upon industries and threatening to close the doors of factories and turn men out of employ- ment unless all mankind will bow down and worship the golden calf. We have seen an arrogance that has seldom been paralleled. e have seen a tyranny not often before attempted and whenever le rise to complain they denounce —— or complaining without attempting to take away the cause of complaint. In sev- eral States the Republican platforms have declared against tation. Not only against our cause, but against the discussion of our cause, My friends, agitation will continue until the people have an American financial system suited to the needs of the American people. ( Applause.) a Loogootee was reached at 12:15, and a Jarge crowd had assembled in the public square, near the depot. Mr. . was escorted to the platform immediately behind „the Sheriff of the county.“ who carried a large American flag. Mr. Bryan spéke to an enthusiastic audience as follows: les and Gentlemen: All campaigns have more or less of importance where the people are to determine public policies and to elect public officials, but there are times when greater interest attaches to a cam- paign than at ordinary times. There are times when public policies are to be deter. mined and See eee questions are to be settled by the ot, and such a time has come, Questions of taxation may be settled at any time. They are always with us. Questions of economy in public expenditure are ever present. But the money question, which underlies other questions, had been thrust upon the le at thie time, and upon the settlement of this money question now is to depend the policy of our nation for Macatee of couatry ve the cen eo a safe financial system, (Great app . our campaign ed our opponents cnought they could ridicule it out of exist- ence, and then when they found that ridi- cule would not work they began to abuse thoge who favored free coinage. They be- gan to call them all sorts of names, and when they found that they were not mak- ing much progress, I understand that down here in the State of Indiana our o —— resorted to misre presentation. I form- ed that the Republicans have circulated in this State an editorial taken from the Oma- ha World-Herald, criticising pension appro- riations. That editorial appeared in the orld-Herald some two years before I had any connection with the paper, and those who are circulating it know that they are circulating something waich I never wrote, which I was not responsible for, and was in no manner connected with, and yet, my friends, so desperate ‘has become the Re- publican campaign, that those who claim to want an honest dollar are not willing to deal honestly with a litical opponent. (Great applause.) Upon the pension question, as upon all other questions, my record can be or — — — ee read the ah po 0 e Congressional proce * the pare upon which I have run. {Great applause.) Probably the greatest crowd encounter- ed during the we | before Vincennes was reached was at that place. The arrange- ments were admirable and Mr. Bryan was conveyed through the crowd without suf- fering any of the usual inconveniences incident to a speech in a town of the size of Vincennes. He said, in part: In the last three years it has required an issue of $262,000,000 of bonds to main- tain the gold standard, and there is no telling how many more bonds must issued to maintain the gold standard if it is continued in this co Tou have a chance this fall to decide by your bal- lots whether you desire mainten- ance or whether you desire to a don it and substitute the double stan The Republican party tells us that we must keep somethi which we desire to get rid of until other nations help us to let go of it. We have waited for twenty years and we are further away from the double standard to-day than we have ever been before. The gold standard never fought an open battle. No step has been taken in favor of gold except K was taken in the dark. (Applause), At Lawrenceville, III., Mr. Bryan said: Fellow citizens: I am only going to oc- cupy your attention for a moment then let an old col e in Congress oc- cupy the rest of the t The public at- tention is concendrated on the money ques- tion. Our opponents seem to think, at least some of them, that the money question is too deep for the American people and must be turned over do a few persons who are by s ial training fit to understand it. My friends we can go upon the farms of this country and find men who can hold their own upon the financial history of this country and upon the principles which underlie the money question with she finan- ciers who profess to know all about ft. Our — have studied the mone ues- tion ause they have felt the pin of hard times. The farmers have had their attention called to to and they know more about it than certain others who have not suffered and have been indifferent to the subject, and therefore have not examined into it. Money is me creature of law and | those who make the laws must determine the pe na of money as well as the qual- ity, and quantity is as important a factor. as quality.

I have described our gold dollar as the balloon dollar. It keeqs going up all the time. It may be nice to look at and that is the only use of a balloon anyhow. (Laughter and applause.) 5 At Olney, III., the home of the present Republican nominee for Governor of the State, there was an immense crowd at the station. A gaily decorated stand had been erected, and from it the nominee said: Fellow citizens: They tell me that you have had only about a day and a half notice and that if you had had sufficient time you would have had a large crowd out. My voice ig a little husky and I am rather glad that you didn’t have any more time. (Applause and laughter.) I think there are as many people here as I can very well talk to to-day. We are in the midst of a campaign which is exciting more interest and deeper feeling than any campaign of recent days. Some- times in other campaigns we have found peo- ple lukewarm, people who were indifferent and sometimes there was a large stay-at- home vote. This year there will be no stay- at-home vote. (Cries of ‘No, no,’ and a voice: We'll vote for you.“) I have found people who thought that the free coinage of silver would ruin this country, and I have found people who believe that the gold standard is ruining the country, but do not find anybody whois neutral. I find some who st it is absolutely necessary that the Republican candidate should he elected, and others who say that it is absolutely neces- sary that he should be defeated. (A voice: ‘He ought to be.’) But I do not find any- body who is indifferent in this campaign. I am glad of it. I believe that the American people ought to take an interest in every campaign, and that they should study the questions presented at all times and be pre- pared to use the ballot intelligently in se- curing whatever good legislation is neces- sary and in taking from the statute books Mart law that is bad. I was brought up in Southern Illinois and I was taught that the science of politics was an honorable science in a government like this, and that evéry citizen ought to take an interest in politics, and that every citizen should regard it as his duty to make povermment just as — as possible. My friends, Andrew Jackson stated a great truth when he said that there are no necessary evils jn government, that its evils exist only in its abuses, and the abuses of government creep in when people are indifferent to the duties of — and allow a few men to use the instrumen- * of ty: ony for private gain voice: “Like they did w non. etize 4 Aer 5 en they demon r.

The. time was phenomenally fast, and stamped him as a rider of the very first water. Since the National meet Coburn has not been on the circuit, He has devoted himseif to racing on the local meets. Barring at Alton he has not met men of any class, but he has ridden very fast both in races and un training. Some of his times at the Pastime track have been marvellous.

People who feel that Cabanne may not be at his best still rely on the wonderful fighting finish which has made him famous wherever a bicycle is ridden, to put their idol over the tape a winner. It is the opinion of the Post-Dispatch. that, owing to ‘this superior condition, Co- burn will go into the race having a little the best of it.

Es- penschied and Robert, vacancies will prob- ably be left m the number of representa- ves which will be filled by appointment. — election will be held between Oct. 15 and Nov. 16, and Secretary Butler is preparing the ballots which are consecutive- ly numbered to 8 against mistakes or duplicates. he W. club representa- tives are elected in X and the new division board of officers will be composed of about eighteen men. Last week’s list of applications broke all records for September, and thirty-two names were added to Missouri’s roll, of which the followi are from St, Louis: . . Houghtlin, C. W. stings, A.

City Streets Committee held its regular weekly meeting last Wed- nesday. Allen was elected secretary, vice Geo. C. Oeters, resigned. It was decided to attend the county tour to-day in a body. Chairman Northrop announced that many applications for eater a were on file, which would be acted upon at the next meeting, to be held on Wednesday, Oct. 7, instead of Thursday, which is a public holiday. Hy. V. Lucas made a stirring ad- dress to the 8 urging the members to make renewed efforts to pull together * to bring in new members so that the good work can be pushed all along the ne. A suggestion was made that the of- ficers of the Cycling Board of Trade be asked to meet with the committee eath week, and was favorably acted upon. Pennsylvania passed the 10,000 mark in point of membership last week, and rooters proclaimed the fact in last week’s Bulle- tin. Missouri would be near the 3,000 mark but for the carelessness of many membors failing to renew their membership, and this lack of appreciation of the League's work has caused the officers no little amount of work and worry. A collector will doubt- less be started out to investigate the mat; ter. mA THE COASTING CHAMPIONSHIP. First Contest for the Local Pre Will Take Place on Oct.

Yet they have a firm foothold in all the cities in the country, notably in New Yor as well as in this city, Chicago, Philadelpn and Boston. Like the Italian social clubs for the pro- motion of murder and perjury, the Chinese societies had their original beginning in politics. In China the present organiza- tions from which all the otaers are branches and ramifications, are known as the Tirad Society Thousands of worthies who, from the time of the Tai Ping rebellion were members of this group of conspirators and active in efforts to depose the present Chinese dynasty, were obliged to fly for their lives when our late guest, Li Hung Chang, 8 that formidable outbreak. e majority of them came here to er- — dl ö WAT Aa 7 hell 1 The little left behind it to bestow.

Pollice Verso,“ by Jean Leon Gerome, is represented on the twentieth float. This float is a representation of the well-known picture of the gladiator in the arena before Caesar. The background of the float repre- sents the imperial balcony in which are seated Caesar and s attendents. The gladiator, with shield, helmet and short sword, stands above his prostrate foe, tri- umphant, and ready to carry out the die- tates of the Imperator should he cry for the signal for the plunge of the already bloody sword into the body of his prostrate foe, Gerome was born in France, in 1 and has made Oriental and classical subjects, es- pecially those connected with hi facts, mainly the subject of his work. The twenty-first float is an exhibi “Circe,”” by M. Louis Chalon. Thi ythology she is described as aired Goddess, sister, of ge all-wise Aeaetes, daughter of the Sun, who gives light to mortals. It was in her power to change human beings into the shapes of animals with drugs and incantations, and she changed twenty of the companions of Ulysses into swine. This picture represents her in the act of her magic transformation of the sailore of Ulysses into the swine which stand in the foreground of the float, some lying senseless, some standing stupe- fied before the witchcraft of the Grecian temptress. J The Fairies’ Chariot,“ by Mme. Madeline Lemaire, is shown on the Twenty-second and last float. This float represents the fairy queen with three of her subjects driving in a chariot of gold, with richly jeweled wheels, through the fleecy clouds, drawn by three fiery-winged dragons, whose scaly backs flash out the colors of the rainbow as they dash through space, ring the fairies in their robes of purple, scarlet, blue and orange.

SUBURBAN’S CHARGES AGAINST OTTO VOELCKER DISMISSED. WAS BRUTALLY. ASSAULTED. Now He Wants $50,000 Damages for Unprovoked Assault and Mali- cious Prosecution. Otto Voelcker, the commission merchant of 916 North Third street, will file suit for $50,000 damages against the St. Louls & Suburban Railway. There will be three counts in his petition. Unlawful assault. Malicious - prosecution, Unpravoked abuse while riding on one of the company’s cars, 2 The assault was committed Aug. 7 at Sub- urban Garden by John Henson, an ex-peni- tentiary bird, who is hired to slug people who ‘dare criticise the company’s way of doing business. Voelcker was slugged unmercifully and without cause by Henson, who afterwards locked him up at the guard-house, then took him out to Florissant and jailed him over night. With unparalleled effrontery the ex-jail bird preferred a charge of disturbing the peace against his ill-treated prisoner. The case would have come up before Jus- tice Belleville, but Lawyer Marshall F. Mc- Donald, who had been retained by Voelc- ker, obtained a change of venue and -the hearing was transferred to Judge Noerper’s court in Luxembourg, St. Louis County. The hearing did not come off until Friday, and though the railway company brought up an army of employes as witnesses to swear to Voelcker’s pugnacity and Henson’s peaceful behavior, Voelcker had several prominent business people to testify to the horrible brutality of Henson. His witnesses too did not contradict each other as did those of the railway company. The judge dismissed Voelcker on the tes- timony. This establishes his point of mali- clous prosecution. The hearing of the case Friday occupied ae, vet time from 10 o’clock forenoon until 6 p. m. Prosecuting Attorney F. A. Heidorn, Zach Mitchell and R. Lee Mudd appeared for the railway company, and Marshall F. McDon- ald appeared for the defense. John Henson was the first witness for the prosecution. He swore that on the night of August 7 two young men swung on the uburban Garden. This is against Scott Fim and he made an attempt to arrest them. He was dealt a stunning blow in the back of the neck, and, turning around, saw Voelcker standing in a threatening attitude. He placed him under arrest and conducted him to the guard-house, Voelcker cursing and ting him all the way. After he had en Voelcker to Florissant, Henson declares his prisoner acknowledged his guilt and asked to be fined and let go home. Cross-examined, he said the reason Voelcker had nct been tried and fined im- mediately, as had been done in twenty-one similar cases during the preceding months, was because Prosecutor Hiedorn was not about. He also admitted that he had been convicted and sent to the Penitentiary’ for burglary. L. A. Watkins, an assistant thug at Subur- ban Garden, swore that he saw Voelcker strike Henson. He repeated Henson's testi- mony about Voelcker’s admission of guilt, On cross-examination, he admitted thut he had been suspected of complicity in the Becquette poisoning case. an employe, een him, his co urban watchman who the old Mr. M 0 idors at rear platform of the car us it rounded the «DECORATED CUSPIDORS... WE WILL OFFER FOR ONE WEEK ONLY, 3850 Fine Imported China Cus L HANDSOMELY DECORATED. | N. B. GRAY CHINA CO 450 EAC 312 North broadway. Then Voelcker got up, brushed him aside, rushed out of the car and attacked Hen- son. Sam Gumpertz, one of the managers of the garden, testified that he had seen Voelcker in the guard-housa and received the names of several gentlemen the pris- Qner wanted telephoned for to go on his bond. Gumpertz admitted that he did not telephone for them. There were half a dozen other witnesses from the company, whose evidence did not differ from that given. Mr. Voelcker’s witnesses were Dr. ‘ H. Gehring. Niemitz, a carriage maker; W. Marks and Parker, Agricultural implement salesmen; E. De Lancy of the L. & N. railroad; M. J. Bulk - ley, John Blind, George Mager, ok- keeper at Kennard’s; W. F. Smith of Kan- sas City, W. Trefney, an insurance agent, and E. Nagle of Florissant. They told exactly the same story of how there had been a disturbance caused by two young men trying to board ‘a car as it rounded the loop. Voelcker was boarding the car when Henson rushed up and seized him by the collar. He swung him around so roughly that his hand struck Mr. Magee a violent blow in the stomach. Then Henson dragged his victim across the tracks to a picket fence. He held him up against it by the throat and punched him in the face. The people grew excited and made a rush at Henson. Watkins and sev- eral other deputies gathered around Hen- son with drawn revolvers and kept the erowd back. Ther Henson dragged Voelcker 70 feet down the road to the guard-house. Through the picket fence the witnesses could see Henson jabbing the prisoner in the stomach with his club. Only the drawn revolvers of the deputies kept the indignant crowd from mobbing the brutal officer. Two men in the crowd offer- ed to go on Voelcker’s bond and the wit- nesses asserted that Manager Gumpertz de- clared that any man who attempted to go on the prisoner’s bond would be arrested and locked up at Florissant. Voelcker’s witnesses were all worked u in telling the court of Henson’s outrageous brutality. They did not break down under cross-examination, and their evident re- spectability compared with that of the pros- ecution’s witnesses had weight with the court. In his argument to the court Mr. McDon- ald contended that as Henson was a police officer his peace could not be disturbed. Justice Noerper said that from the evidence Henson’s peace had not been badly fractured and discharged Mr. Voelcker. Mr. McDonald says that he delayed filing a damage suit until he could include the point of malicious prosecution. He will prove the brutal assault on Voelcker by many reputable witnesses. He will prove that the company, knowing their man Hen- son was an ex-convict and a bulldozer, in- stead of offering Voelcker reparation tried to convict him of being a brawler. Lastly he will ask for damages for out- rageous abuse his client sustained while returning on the Suburban cars on Aug. 10 from the first calling of the case at Floris- sant. The company as a common carrier ig bound to protect its passengers from abuse. Instead its employes abused Mr. Voelcker and his attorney like thieves. DEATH MADE PRAGE, Col. Sinn and His Former Wife Were Reconciled Over Their Son’s Coffin. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—The funeral of Wal- ter A.

Owing to Frau Klafky's Death She Will Sing on Her Own Terms— Gossip of the Metropolis. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct, 1.—The first service of the new Congregational Church, which has been organized on the West Side, was held Sunday morning in Leslie Hall, Righty-third street, near the Western boulevard. It is the only Congregational Church between Fifty- ninth and Ohe Hundred and Twenty-fifth streets on the West Side. The pastor, the Rev. Dr. Henry A. Stimson, was formerly with the Broadway Tabernacle. There were about 350 persons in the congregation. Mr. Stimson in his preliminary talk announced that he had received a e number of let- ters wishing success to the new church. These letters came from people all over the country. He read a telegram from his old church in St. Louis, expressing encour-, agement for the Sep weer ES 3 He announced that there woul be a meet- ing next Friday evening, in the same place, of the Provisional Committee and the con- ization of the gregation to charter of the N the or church and repare th corporation. e Sunday he said, would meet next Sunday for the first. time. Dyer B. Holmes, the treasurer of the church, will be the Superintendent. We have a sphere of work,“ the pastor said, “before us in which we can con- tribute some good to our denomination. I shall speak at ie * on that subject during my sermon next nday.”’ In his sermon” Sunday the pastor spoke of the great faith and devotion of the Israel- ites in building a temple for the worship of . They were ready, he said, to sacrifice their worldly, property. to the Lord. He said the Israelites furnished a good exa le. to modern times in giving themselves, all they had, to him for to-day and all days. One of the most persistent professional beggars in New York is a young German who made his debut as a metropolitan men- dicant about three years ago. His method is to pretend complete ignorance of Eng- lish, Which he speaks fluently.. When he discovers that his possible victim knows no German, he is then able to speak enough English to depict effectively his distressing destitution, with its custom&ry features of enforced and prolonged abstinence from food and the loss of sleep consequent upon walking the streets all night. His first scene of operations was in the neighborhood of the Grand Central Station, but he later took to upper Fifth avenue, which he still — He is young. Beyond a pair of eadlike black eyes, there is nothing strik- ing in his appearance. The other morn- ing he approached a man in Fifth avenue near Fifty-eighth street, and was successful. Then he turned east throygh Fifty-eighth. A man in front of a bicycle repair shop had just taken a dollar bill and started across the street to haye it changed at the tele- graph office when the German beggar came along. Do you want change for that bill?“ he asked. The man said he did. Then the beg- gar drew out of his pocket a handful of coin and picked out à dollar in five and ten- cent pieces. He put the rest of the coin back into bis trousers Feist and folding up the dollar bill placed it in a wallet that he took out of hig coat pocket. Then he went on his way eastward, and turned into Madison avenue in time to catch the crowd. One of the up-town hotels which observed the Raines law with great strictness at first has changed its policy, and now supplies the patrons of the bar wi an excellent lunch for 5 cents, giving food which would cost five or six times that 1 in a restaur- ant. When the law was all the lunch promptly disappeared from the bar, and the proprietor Aid at the time that he expected find the change profitable to him as men who had formerly taken a little to eat with a drink in the bar would, when deprived of that, go into the restaurant and eat there. After a while this particular hotel 82 relented, and long after the other otels had restored their free lunch in all gee and begun to charge 5 cents for it, he put a few sandwiches under a glass cover on the counter, where formerly the lunch stood. But still the customers did not dome back, and whereas a year ago the bar- room was crowded in the afternoon it re- mained discouragingly empty, with only the damp sandwiches under the glass cover to call attention to the spot where once the famous old lunch had rested. About a month ago 8 the return of people to the city was fill the other saloons, the pro- prietor decid id that he would give the sand- one more trial He did, and Visitors kept away from the once been so popular.

But the death of Frau Klafsky has changed the situa- tion, and doubtless Mme. Nordica will now triumph by entering the service of her old; managers on her own terms. Mme. Nordica is the only woman to be had for the class of roles in which the German singer was to have supplanted her. Luli Lehman probably will be needed for the Damrosch company, and if it be true that Frau Moran-Olden is to be engaged by Mr. Damrosch to take Frau Klafsky’s place, the company at the Metropolitan will not be strengthened. Frau Moran-Olden is known here and’ she would prove no adequate substitute for Klafsky or Nor- dica. So it looks as Mme. Nordica would have to be engaged whether Messrs. Abbey & Grau want her or not. She is usually the last of the singers to be en- gaged, and some disagreement about terms has delayed the signing of her contract for the last two seasons. Last year Mme, Januschowsky was engaged in order to let Mme. Nordica see that the company was not — dependent on her. Mme. Januschowsky sang only a few times and got $8,000, so it might have been cheaper to have paid Mme. Nordica what she want- ed in the first place. She usually hires in the end, just as she probably will in this season. hen opera singers say that they have decided not to sing at the Metropoli- tan a-house it. may be safely con- cluded that they have based their decision on very substantial grounds which are possibly not ot their own making. They all want to come there, and it is the goal of every foreign singer. When they do not succeed and decide to sing in other laces or not sing at ad this conclusion 8 likely to be based on mething more than a mere caprice of the artistic nature. A bottle that cannot be filled aft “ has been emptied) has just been invente: promises to of great importance t. entire bottling. industry. The great bott. houses have for years looked in vain f such an invention, to render it impossible for swindlers to refill their bottles with fraudulent. preparations, which has become a lucrative business. Empty bottles, branded with the names of popular drugs, liquors, bitters and chemicals, have been filled with cheap and worthless substances and the original manufacturers have suffered in consequence. Three years ago a large prize was offered in England for an invention that would suc- cessfully overcome this kind of fraud, and hundreds of attempts have in consequence been made, but, until now, without success. The principal feature of this new bottle, which is the invention of Joshua V. Van Name of Staten Island, is a peculiarly con- structed valve, which works on a substan- tially new principle. It is at the end of a sinuously constructed passage, works automatically and by hydraulic force. The moment any liquid is attempted to be forced into the bottle the valve instantly closes. A point of importance is the extreme sim- plicity of the device. The valve is located at the very shoulder of the bottle, and is especially constructed to prevent the inser- tion of any instrument. The device may be fitted into els, casks and demijohns, as well as bottles. It has already been pat- ented in this country, and applications have been filed in Europe. Just before her departure for the West, Mrs. Hetty Green went to her office in the Stokes building in Cedar street, and put an extra lock on the door to prevent leves from carrying off her old 3,0004 ůPpoOOund safe. This safe is the pride of Mrs. Green’s life; it is as sacred to her as the father’s clock” or the old — 3 chair.“ or, in fact, any of the old family heirlooms. in this safe on the eighth floor of the Stokes building Mrs. Green keeps her re- ceipts, money and papers, and, most im- portant of all, the political advices she re- ceives from her son, who broke to the litics of the State of Texas. In this old ron-bound safe are also the latest advices concerning the agreement between her son and Mark Hanna. Mrs. Green’s physician ordered her to go West to regain her shattered health. Pre- vious to her departure she sat in her little office and figured the expenses of the trip. First she thought she would sub-lease the office while she was away, but then re- membering the old safe that had been her friend during twenty years, she decided — tenant would also have to rent the After trying for nearly two weeks she found that she could not sell. She carefully dusted the old safe, covered it with a piece of cloth, and putting an extra lock on the door, took her departure for the West. Since that time she has been paying $116.75 a month rental for the office, just to keep that old safe in its accustomed place. A middle-aged man stood at the corner of Thirty-fourth street and Broadway and in- quired anxiously of the cable road transfer agent the best way to reach a certain ad- dress near Columbus avenue. With some condescension the o\cial made answer. When the next dar came along the citizen asked: “Is this my car?“ “It may be, replied the agent, but I see it’s got the Metropolitan Traction Com- panys name on it.” Then he laughed merrily. The middle-a man gravely boarded the ear. As he did so he handed the transfer agent his card: 50 H. H.

Thirty-one delegates out of a total of 61 went into the Democratic Congressional Convention of the Eleventh District, held at McFern’s Hall, Coleman and North Mar- ket streets, yesterday, to nominate John | T. Hunt, the candidate of the organized labor forces of that section. They encoun- tered obstacles, but pushed them aside and, after an all-day, session, landed their man a winner. The proceedings began with an incipient riot and terminated in a love feast. If there were any sores after the stormy scenes of the temporary organization they were not discernible when the convention ad at 5:30 o’clock with hearty cheers for the nominee, It was one of the hardest fought contests in the entire history of the Eleventh District Democracy, and the labor organizations, which backed Hunt on account of his prom- inence in Union labor circles, showed their strength and carried their point. The convention was to have been called together at 11 o’clock, but the opposition to Hunt did not seem ready to proceed at that hour. The friends of ex-Councilman Patrick O'Malley and Burt. W. Lyon exerted every effort to break into Hunt’s thirty-one votes, but they stood to him like a band of Spar- tans. o argument could move them a par- ticle. They had a majority of one and they were in a humor that boded ill to any one of their number who might show the slightest disposition to yield to the importunities of Mr. O’ Malley. At 11:30 o’clock the Hunt people, who had the lobby as well as a majority of the dele- gates, concluded it was time to get the convention etarted. They delegated John Garen of the Six- to go down stairs and ask Chairman Lynam why he did not open the convention. Garen found Lynam talking to Burt Lyon, and this angered him and there were some warm words exchanged and Garen struck Lynam in the face. They were separated before a crowd could gather. When Lynam reached the hall he said the delay was due to the tardiness of John Ahearn, who hdd been selected for temporary chairman. The Hunt delegates would stand it no longer, and seeing they meant business, Chairman Lynam called the convention to order and called upon ex-Councilman Chas. James of the Eighteenth Ward to préside until Mr. Ahearn arrived. The wards were called for the selection of committees. At the outset contests were announced in the Fourth and Tenth Wards. Before the Twenty-sixth was reached Chairman Ahearn arrived and relieved Mr. James. ‘When the Twenty-sixth Ward was called Delegate Murphy started to read a list of committeemen. The O'Malley people had A notice in Chairman Ahearn’s hands an- nouncing a contest.

GONGRESS WILL BE FOR SILVER CAREFUL POLL OF CONGRESSION- 5 AL DISTRICTS HAS BEEN MADE. SILVER MAJORITY IS NOW 13. The White Metal Will Surely Control the House and Insure Needed Legislation. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.—The Journal has ob- tained through its correspondents and the National Committeemen, conservative opin- ions on the probable result in every Con- gressional district in the country. Accord- ing to these estimates the Representatives in the Fitty-fifth Congress will stand as follows: For free silver, 185; for gold, 162; doubtful, 10. There will be 357 members of the House, making 179 a majority of the whole. The free silver men are certain of a majority, and, if they carry one-half of the districts which are set down as doubtful their major- ity over the gold men will be of good size. This will enable the silver men to organize the House and control the committees. 7 the estimate nearly all the Republicans set down as being for gold, but it is certain that several of them will vote for free silver when the question comes before the House. Dispatches were received and are pub- lished im this morning's issue from every Congressional district in the country, giving éstimates of the States.

DRYDEN’S WORLDLY GOODS THE ESTATE CONSISTS OF NOTES AND CLAIMS. NOTABLE TRIALS RECALLED. Claim Against*Arthur Duestrow and d Note Signed by Dr. and Mrs. Hearne. Nat C. Dryden died, as he had lived, a poor man. An inventory of the estate of the eloquent lawyer. filed yesterday in the Probate Court, shows that while it amounts nominally to $7,500, it consists solely of notes and claims, none of which can be realized upon imme- diately, some, perhaps, not at ail. No will was left. Perhaps he realized that to formally dispose of his earthly pos- sessions would be irony. ‘They consisted of promises. No item of ready money 0oc- curs in the mventory, not even an entry of household furniture. In the absence of a will it was necessary for the Public Administrator to act. The assumption of control of the estate by Ad- ministrator Richardson was regarded the friends of the deceased as a perfunctory proceeding, as it proved. Although Mr. Dryden was a successful lawyer, identified with some of the causes celebres in Missouri’s legal history, they knew that he was also a whole-souled, gen- erous friend, whose charities and expensive tastes were ill-sustained even by the large fees he commanded. There is nothing of surprise, therefore, in the showing made in the inventory. a If it bears no tribute, though, to the thrift of the dead man, it is a reminder of two of the most brilliant events in his career as a lawyer, one of them his greatest vic- tory, the other probably his bitterest de- eat. The famous Stillwell murder case and the insanity inquiry of Arthur Duestrow, wife and child murderer, both figure in the in- 9 The Stillwell murder case is recalled by the first entry, that of a note for $1,000, made Nov. 6, 1895, by J. O. and Fannie C. Hearne, payable in three years. It is a bare statement describing the note. Whether or mot it represents in full the remuneration received by Dryden for his remarkable struggle against a chain of circumstantial evidence which threatened to brand Dr. and Mrs. Hearne as the slay- ers of old Amos Stillwell, the woman’s first husband, and still more threatening prejudice of the locality in which they were tried, does not appear. But it brings to mind the stuffy little court room at wi- ing Green, Mo., and the figure of the ac- cused woman racked with emotion for the first time during the trial, by Dryden's eloquence. Next is an entry of a $4,500 claim against Arthur Duestrow, whose life now hangs on an appeal to the Supreme Court.

He took his stand on the corner and began to make a McKinley harangue. A crowd soon gathered. Little by little his speech merged from a discussion of the financial question to a tirade of abuse of the Democratic candi- datés. The first insulting allusions were not openly resented and the fellow was so far emboldened as to make his statements broader. Insult followed abuse, and abuse insult, until the orator put the finishing touch to his polemic by calling Wm. J. Bryan out 2 his name,“ as they say in the Third Dis- rict.

OMAHA, Oct. 3-—The Kansas City & Omaha Railroad, which was sold some time ago under foreclosure proceedings will prob- ably be operated by a néwly incorporated company. This company, which is known as the Kansas City & Omaha Railway Co., will doubtless purchase the road. When the new company takes possession the operation of the road will be entirely independent of the Pacific receivers, and it will be the first of the Union Pacific lines in Nebraska to go under a separate management.

He is liable to disappointment, as we all know and it is somewhat stra that, shrewd as he is in money matters, he is so blind in others. For the rest of the world is very about his success or his failifre. Neither can other people see on exactly what grounds a man can claim its lause only for having taken good care of his own interests. The consideration given to him for his money is given only to his face by those who expect to get something by it. The com- munity would look complacently upon the matter if a sudden revulsion should set him to sweeping the streets to-morrow, would indeed consider him quite as important in the last occupation as in that of raking his heaps higher. In other words, it is the wealth itself that is important, if there is any importance in the case. The man who owns it may be very unimportant; in fact, if he is content to sure to be so.

Most of our readers would probably think that to shear, say, twenty or thirty sheep, would be as much as the most skilful and industrious shearer could do in a long day’s work. They may, there, says Chambers’ Journal, be interested to know what vastly greater numbers fare expected to pass through the deft hands of a capable crafts- man in the pastoral regions of the great sheep-keeping colony of New South Wales, Our notes have been collected on the spot.

THE SNAKES AND THINGS SEEN IN D. T. MAY NOT BE ALL IMAGINARY. An American scientist has discovered a microbe in alcohol which he believes is the cause of all the ills of intemperance. The theory that drunkenness and its accom- panying evils is bacteriological in origin is attracting great attention. Prof. C. Coles of Wilkesbarre, Pa., who made the dis- covery, based on Dr. Talmage’s description of these microbes hopes to find some anti- toxine which will destroy these dangerous germs. The discovery is expected to revo- lutionize the present methods of dealing with the drink habit, and incidentally to work a great moral reform. Prof. Coles states that he has found after careful experiment that all forms of alco- hol contain parasitic life called bacilus po- tumaniae, t follows, therefore, that every kind of drink, whether wine, brandy or beer, into which alcohol enters is infested with this curious germ life. These minute forms have béen examined through a power- ful microscope and their development care- fully watched. They have been found to be espectally 3 in strong drink which contains a ge percentage of alcohol. Any cné who drinks is, of course, forced to introduce these dangerous forms into the system in large humbers. It is well known that microbes which are taken into the stomach in either food or drink quickly mingle with the blood, and soon find their way to all parts of the body. Prof. Coles belleves that a man, who in delirium tre- mens sees every form of reptile life, in reality sees only these parasites of the brain in a greatly exaggerated form. It is, therefore, 2 7 hallucination that the 4 victim ig suffer: from, but he actually sees these gérm forms. The presence of these minute germs, it is believed, also (HABERDASHER and CLOTHIER). — — — ATHLETES OF THE DBEEP. Eight-Hundred-Pound Tunas Fly Through the Air. “Speaking of jumping,” said an old sea- man, let me tell you of the greatest jump ever seen. It was many years ago, and we had experienced bad luck for séveral weeks, when one morning we sighted a big whale, and two boats su: off h. a race to see who would get there first. P “Suddenly the whale rose not a hundre yards away, and headed directly for us. The mate gave orders to stop, and we sat still, expecting that the monster would rise near us. The harpooner stood with his iron ready to throw, while we grasped our Ours. nervous prepared to ,ump at the word ‘s.ern all,’ that nearly always came whea a whaic was harpooned. Noc a word was spoken, and suddenly a mountain of b:ack appesred, which seemed to shut off tue entire hcrizon. Up it went until I dis- tinctly saw a seventy-foot whale over twen- ty feet im the air above us. The mate was the first to regain his senses, and gave the command, ‘stern all.“ Just as we were ready to spring overboard the boat shot back several feet, and the next second the gigantic animal dived into the ocean, just.grazing us, having complete- ly passed over the boat.“ Such gigantic jumps are rare. A similar one was recorded by a well-known Admiral in the British Navy. A batileship was ly.ng in the harbor of Bermuda, when all hands were attracted by the appearance of a very large whale suddenly showing itself in the harbor, and appearing very much alarmed by dhe shallow water. The Admiral, who was then only a middy, joined a boat’s crew that svarted in pursuit, and just as they were about to strike the whale d'sappeared out of sight leaving a deep whiripool, round which the boat shot. Another moment and the whale came up, having, in all prob- ability, struck *he bottom, and went into the air like a rocket. “So complete was the enormous leap,” Says our authority, that for an instant we saw him fairly up in the air, in a hor.zonta) position, at a distance of at least twenty perpendicular feet over our heads, while in his progress upward there was in his spring some touch of the vivacity with which a trout or salmon shoots out of the water.“ Many of the inhabitants of the sea are tain. en $ CET Twelve Thousand, Four Hundred and Thirty are made happy by the Radiant Home Base B Radiant Homes are powerful heaters and lated.

Of all the breeds of sheep merinos are the most difficult to shear. In the first place, they are very “throaty’’—that is, the skin covering the neck lies in large, loose folds, so that manipulation with the ears is at best tedious and troublesome. en, again, they possess what is technically known as the “‘points’’ of the breed—they are woolled to the tip of the nose and down the legs to the hoofs; it is these so-called points“ that take up time. Sheep grazing over pastures where burs, grass seeds, twigs, etc., are numerous, or over coarse, sandy country, pick up in their fleece quantities of foreign matter that blunt the shears during the process of shearing. It will at once be seen that this especial] applies to short-legged sheep, heavily fleeced as the merinos are to the ex- tremities of their limbs. The time taken up sharpening his shears is a serious consider- ation to the shearer. Bad or careless shearers, in order to give the sheep the appearance of being properly shorn, may either ‘“‘shingle’’ or ‘“‘feather’’ the fleeces they cut off. y “shingling’’ is meant making a second cut over the same part of the body of the sheep, the first severing the staple towards the.center, and the second close to the skin; yet the whole | fleece holds together and the damage may the shearer’s expertness, depending mainly ern China. Heretofore these have been raised only for table use. In 1893 the first attempts were made to manufacture from them wine of ordinary quality and a su- perior sort of champagne. The results have been so satisfactory that a foreign house determined to secure from.the Chinese Government a monopoly of the manufacture of wines from vineyards of Manchu. By an imperial edict this right has been awarded for a long term of years, and a distinguished European expert has been sent to China to take charge of the large plant in process of building in the grape district. French viniculturists are worried by what they con- sider may be a formidable “‘yellow invasion” of their market. a THE CHAMPION RAM. He Was Recently Sold for $8,400 at Sydney, New South Wales.

HUMAN COAL. Two Thousand People Produce a Hun- dred Weight in an Hour. An English authority informs us that an audience of 2,000 people, listening for two hours to a concert, are not only cultivating and indulging their musical taste, but are. engaged in the somewhat prosaic occupa- tion of producing no less than one hundred weight of coal and seventeen gallons of water from the impurities and moisture of their own breath, and that if they were all performing themselves, instead of listening, this quantity would be nearly doubled. It is far more wholesome to drink the un- diluted water of the Thames at Blackwal! than to breathe the air of a crowded and unventilated room, and how cleanly people can be content do so is only explicable on the principle that what the eye does not gee the heart 4 not grieve over. good jumpers, and some have become fa- mous. Among them should be mentioned the tarpon, that gleam like silver, which constitute the famous game fish of Florida. In Pacific waters the tuna, an ally of the horse mackerel, is noted for its leaps.

Chief Swingley has decided to go all over the pension case again, because one of the witnesses in the former proceed- ing was not under oath. This witness is alleged to have said he did not care what he testified to, because he had not been sworn. The case is the one in which two women are claiming the pension due the widow of Jeremiah Sullivan, woo was a member of the St. Louis Fire Department. The wife he had lived with in St. Louis for ten years pat in her claim, and was about to be paid he money, when another woman, named Mary Sullivan, living in England, filed a claim, and stated that she had been mar- ried to Sullivan before he left England for America. The claims of both women were per cent pverage interest to with. contested at considerable length, the investi. gation taking all summer, without results. Now all the work has to be done over again.

The money, which fs not to be awarded until 19%, was lodged in 1883 in the Imperial Bank at St. Petersburg by M. Aranjeyeff, the founder of the military colony of Novgorod. He deposited 60,000 rubles, which is to accumulate until 1925, and then be paid as a prize to the writer of the best history of the reign of Alex- ander I. of Rusyia, the judges being a com- mittee of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences. It is estimated that the money so deposited will, by the time the prize 880 00 to be awarded, have increased to 2, rubies, three- fourths to go to the winner of the prize, and the othér fourth to be de- voted to the cost of publishing the work.

Raises All Sorts of Ructions at Mrs, Mary Meehan’s. Policeman Richard Fruin of the Third District was before the Police Board Tuesday charged with abusing Hebrew merchants ‘on Franklin avenue, but he succeeded in beating the case. The next time he faces the Commissioners he will probably not be so lucky. Fruin is now under suspension for be- having like a wild bull in the home of Mrs. Mary Meehan at 1304 South Sixth street. He reeled into the kitchen uproar- lously drunk at 2 o’clock Friday after- noon. He -vomited about the place and befouled it. He fell in a drunken stupor on a lounge and slept until 5 o’clock. Then he woke in delirium, drew his re- volver and tried to shoot Mrs. Meehan’s grown son John, drove them out of their house at the point of his revolver and proceeded to sack the house. He knocked down the stove. He tore pictures from the wall. He smashed every it of furniture and crockery he could lay his hands on. He pulled the clothes from the bed, tore the linen and kicked the pillows about. When it wag no longer possible to do more damages inside the house Fruin went out into the yard and terrorized the neigh- borhood. When women poked their heads out of windows to watch his drunken antics he leveled his gun and roared at them to withdraw. While ‘their house was —2 destroyed Mrs. Meehan and her son went down to the Chestnut Street Station and reported the case. The Sergeant in charge said he would have the matter looked up and let it go at that. In the course of the evening Officers Clark and Reidy of the Central District happened by, and when they heard of in’s conduct went into the place and took him out from the wreckage. They led him down the street and then turned him loose. At 11 o’clock that night Officer Clark — by again and found Fruin still ho * forth. He led him away, took him over to a saloon and gave him a drink and put him on a car. Mrs. Meehan reported the case to Night Chief Kiely when she found that Fruin was not arrested. When the Chief suc- ceeded in identifying Fruin with the out- rage he had him suspended. HUSBAND RUNS AMUCK. Isaac, Sodridge Carves His Wife and Her Lover.

After the Great Parade Wednesday Night Will Follow a Ball at the Liederkranz Hall. South St. Louis wil be decked out in festival attire all this week. Arrangements have been made for a cele- bration to continue for six days. Beginning Monday Broadway for thirty blocks will be a panorama of gorgeous colors by day and a dazzling vista of shifting lights by night. Last year for the first time the merchants of South Broadway took part in the fall fes- tivities. In the short space of five weeks they organized the South Broadway Mer- chants’ Association. The organization com- prised men whose pluck and energy had made the street one of the foremost busi- ness thoroughfares of St. Louis. As soon as the association was formed arrangements for a trade parade were pushed to completion with the result that the evening of Oct. 6 of last year South Broadway witnessed a magnificent pageant. This year, despite the fact that the torna- do crippled the resources of many of them, the members of the South Broadway Mer- chants’ Association mean to celebrate the opening of the fall season in an even more imposing manner. Instead of confining the celepration to one night it will continue fora week and no expense will be spared to make it a week to be long remembered in South St. Louis. The big event of the week will be the d ball which ‘will follow it. ion, with Ben Westhus at their head, set about to make arrangements for this year’s parade, they found the outlook most dis- couraging. The street had been swept by the storm and many of the merchants had been reduced from prosperity to compara- tive poverty. It was an 2 —.— undertaking and more than once the officers were on the point of giving up in despair. With characteristic enterprise, they sur- mounted the difficulties. With the magic St. Louis came in- pros and one by one the merchants signified strong as it ever was and shows every indi- cation of prolonging its usefulness as an e of the South St. Louis business district. Its influence has spread until at present its name is somewhat misleading. It has worked and is working not only for South Broadway merchants, but for those on scores of other streets tributary to the main thoroughfare. This year’s parade will take place next Wednesday evening. The arrangements have been made by the Festivities Commit- tee, cons of Ben Westhus, Charles . > Jr., William Bolte, Jacob » rank, I.

You can’t tell me nothin’!’’ ’ He fairly shrieked the words in his ex-. citement, at the same time struggling like a madman in the grasp of his big opponent. Finally he freed himself, ‘‘ducked’’ his head and, like the late Mr. Winkelried, made a break for liberty. Down Olive street he ran at the top of his,speed, his shaggy whiskers standing out like the teeth of a curry- comb. The big man pursued him half a block, but was outdistanced, and the crowd gave him the eruel, equestrian laugh. Whether he intended to force him to Hsten to argument and took after him with pugil- istic intent will never be known. Thus the “argument” ended. This is only one of a hundred examples of muscular politics that meg | be viewed in that vicinity at almost any hour of the day.

Then his leading opponent proceeded to take a fall out of him. “Old man,“ he said, by way of introduc- tion, you're full of sausage meat. You don’t know what you're talking about. If Bryan’s elected silver dollars will be worth $1.29 apiece, and you fellers that have been savin’ up your gold will be around hollerin’ fer silver inside o’ four days after the in- auguration. You’d ruther have greenbacks than gold any day in the week, if you knowed anything abou’ this yere money question at all. You’re hollerin’ fer gold and you don’t know what’s good fer you. What's the use o' yellin’ fer a gold dol- lar, when you can git a silver dollar worth $1.29 cents just by votin’ for it?’ At this ‘sledge-hammer blow the crowd yelled lustily, and a policeman appeared in sight from around the corner. ‘ “You men’ll have to get out of here he said, as he proceeded to clear the side- walk. “You make too, much noise. It'll have to be stopped.“ “All right,“ said the red-faced orator. “‘T didn’t come here to argue, nohow. I just got into a little talk with these fellers herę.“ Everybody laughed in a good-ndteared way, and part of the crowd moved further down the street. As the red-faced orator started away he said: Well, I’m sorry to see you fellers on the — side when ye might as well be votin’ right. These incidents are of hourly occurrence and all go to show the intense interest taken by men of all classes in the great question of finance. At the same time, while many of the arguments are defective, they show that the common people, more than ever before, are taking a personal in- Of All Their Gas and oll Stoves ~ at Less Than terest in the issues of the campaign, and are studying them, so as to be able to vote independently and intéHigently. While there are a few blatant frauds, the majority of the arguments advanced are made by laboring men earnestly seeking to better their condition. BILLY DESMOND’S BIKE.

Jim BEspy, whose simple Arkansas smile has greatly increased the number of lady visitors to the Four Courts during the last sfx months. Such being the case, it was only natural that Col. Espy should be the one to induct ‘the Chief into the mysteries of mounting and riding the wheel he has purchased. They chose a night last week, and selected a time when everything around the Four Courts is comparatively_quiet. Chief Desmond stationed himself on the Clark avenue side, at the head of the in- cline. leading east from Eleventh street, and commanded Col. Espy to bring forth the fiery, untamed steed. 1 It was duly brought, and the great Chief, who had looked upon all manner, of guns and knives in the hands of desperate men and never flinched, quailed when he beheld the red Cyclopean eye of the ferocious steed . 2 B usse } , ‘ Carpets, 50c | YARD UP Mantel Folding Beds, 95 i 592 2 Rooms Furnished for 3 Rooms Furnished for 4 Rooms Furnished for Folding Beds, $182 Cood Parlor Suits, $35 to $225 Cood Bedroom Su its, $18.75 0 $200 Ward- Cheap Parlor Suits, S172 Chiffoniers, Couches, _ robes, All Woods, $430 50 8% | We Will Sell Goods to Responsible parties on “Their Own Terms” and Without Security.

Finally the Chief gritted his teeth, and af - ter a long series of trials he succeeded in mounting the prancing steed of metal. Away it started down the hill—away, away, away! Faster and faster it went. And still faster. Desmond's heels flew up in the air. His breath was coming in abbreviated pants. His courage was gone. “For God's sake, Espy,“ he shrieked at the t of his voice, “stop this thing! I'll be killed!“ Espy gave him the cruel horse laugh— the cold, unsympathetic equine snort. Take a seat,“ he cried, as he gave the bike a vicious push and sent it whirling down the hill like a four-time winner. Take a seat and wait a minute!“ He was revenged. — How many times, as a humble, necessary newspaper reporter, had Col.

It is not, however, evidence that such an organization and con- spiracy does not now exist. or the day of its greatest power, the Bank of the United States was equally fearful of public opinion and constantly and emphatically asserted in the face of the most conclusive proof, that it was not using its power over business, or the fortunes of individuals.

Seeing,“ he says, „that there was a majority in each house for the institution, and no intention to lose time arguing for it, our course of action be- came obvious, which was to attack inces- santly, to assail it at all points, display tae evil of the institution, rouse the people and prepare them to sustain the veto.“ This policy was carried out definitely.

She replied with some dignity that she was not, and finally I prevailed upon her to give me the reason, and here it is as near as I can tell it: „Well, I tell you ‘bout de las’ one I went to.

It is the most successful case of eluding the keen scent of the newspaper sleuths that is on re- cord. The farce was a tremendous success in New York. American play- Remembering that man wrights had not hesitated ous to this to place large labels with their own names on plays that undeniably belonged to others, the wonder grew when it became positively known that the author of “The Gay Paris- ians’’ had decided to remain in his hole and refused to be coaxed or hunted out. The critics hated to see such a good play wasted on the desert air of authorlessness, so they pitched around to find an author to fit it. One of them insisted that Augustus Thomas, of Alabama“ fame, had written it. He thought he discerned some of e new-mown-hayedness of Mr. Thomas’ in the piece, and besides that, Elizabeth Mar- bury, the Mahatma representative of a score or more of Eur an dramatists, had guessed Thomas to be the author. Thus it was that this gentleman of keén discern- ment would have it that nobody but Gus omas had brought “The Gay Parisians”’ existence. nother critic held to the belief that Clay M. Greene who is Mr. Thomas’ associate frolicker in the Lambs’ Club, had written the comedy. A third laid it at the door of Charles Klein, who, in addition to reading 389 plays for Charles Frohman this season has written two successful plays and a suc- cessful comic opera. A fourth found dis- tinct and positive traces of Clyde Fitch’s graceful pen in it. A fifth was willing to bet his life that William Gillette who turned „„Le Plantation Tomassin“ into Too Much Johnson,” had Gilletted the French orig- inal into “The Gay Parisians.’”” A sixth said it was Charles Hoyt’s work. A seventh attributed it to a St. Louis journalist who has been in New York for some years, And so on they kept guessing. Charles Frohman refused to reveal the author. At first he set up the defense that the only author. was the Frenchman who wrote the farce, Hotel de Libre Exchange,“ from which The Gay Parisians’ was taken, and that the New York version was almost a literal translation, not more than ten lines of the French piece having been changed, Then he yielded to pressure and said he was under bond not to make public the adapter of the play, having bound himself in vy pecuniary penalty to keep his name a secret for two years or at least until the gentleman made another success. Even Al Fiaymai his personal representative, found it impossible to unlock the Frohman bosom and rifie it of this important secret. Harry R who is Frohman’s finan- cial man, said the royalties on the piece and large royalties, by the wa to $1,000 a week—were d regularly, but to whom he did not know; the collector was an utter stranger to him, who brought order for the money from Mr. Frohm each week.

Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 1+The Wizard of Olympia has astonished the town once more. His opera proved to be a good opera— the music tuneful and pleasant and unpre- tentious; the book presenting a cogent story well told; the lyrics rhythmic; certain of the scenes humorous, others romantic, all interesting. And so Oscar Hammerstein won new applause. : It would be easy to pick fau]ts in Santa Maria.” There are dull periods in its pur- rative, and its score might strike a bolder string. But we are not finding fault. We went to enjoy ourselves, to hear good sing- ing, to smile at amusing comedians, to see handsome pictures, to watch graceful dancers, to study a new romantic musical comedy, interpreted by a clever company. Oscar Hammerstein promised no more; Os- car Hammerstein did no less. “Santa Maria“ brings no new message in music, wit or fancy. But it brings good humor and good numbers. An audience which packed the Olympia Theater to «uf- focation laughed heartily at the mirth of ihe story, demanded frequent repetitions of the to remain lo ] pillars of th has fie this: n %% ĩ eee ˙ i oe | Sia ee te eee et ee 2 N * anal ee i i 1 g 5 * 5 Fer f Ff promptly suppressed — — Y the moment it ap- That b h at bunch of funny little men and wom- en, the Liliputians, under the — of the Rosenfelds, returned this week to the Star Thoater in an amazing medley called Merry Tramps, oa" is in four acts, with eleven tableaux, plenty of pretty bal- lets, full of color, grace and originality.

Miss Earle is a young and pretty woman, and a charming singer. She has had the dis- tinction of wearing $1,000,000 worth of dia- monds at once. Most of these gems were bor- rowed, but that has nothing to do pita this narrative. ' Miss Earle claims she is undér verbal contract with George W. Lederer of the Casino.

But the managers who borrowed her decided that another 2 woman would better suit the part of ack, and they returned e to Mr. Lederer, simply saying: Much obliged.” Now the scintillating Miss Earle sues for $2,500, which she claims was to be her sal- jary under the terms of the transfer.

EVEN THE PRINCE OF WALES RUNS A MODEL BAR WHICH PROMOTES TEMPERANCE. Saloon keeping seems a plebelan sort of occupation for a blue-blooded peer to be en- gaged in, but, as a matter of fact, there are two or three saloons in nd that are worked on model lines by noble lords. These saloons are remarkable in many ways, and there is*little doubt that if some of our drinking establishments were worked on such lines the temperance advocate would find it difficult to propagate his cause. The oldest of these model drinking saloons worked by peers is that at Ardington, near Wantage. Lord Wantage made Ardington a model village many years ago, and few villages have such schools, cottages, shops and workshops Everything is worked on co-operative lines, with the exception of the saloon, and his lordship wished that there should not even — ve ig exemption, but other qpunsels pre- va g A manager was first of all put in on a 8 —— — — F * * ‘ | 4 : Pe.

More weird, more wild, more wonderful than anything which could possibly be born of the imagination, is the reality of belief in the Demon Lover of Theosophists. Many people who come casually into inter- course with this sect, y have from time to time heard mention of this lover of an- other world, but even if interested in know- ing more than a suggestion could convey, they have no means of doing 6o. For the Demon Lover a all that con- cerns him are consider matters for consideration in the secret counsels of the learning, a little knowledge is dangerous. Any striving for knowledge regarding the mystic lover on the part of the uninitiated is believed to lead to absolute physical and mental of the investigator. ‘ It is f is reason that he is never even mention save in the presence of people who already have a knowledge of the sub- ject, who know the significance of an oc- cult wedlock, and who can control thoughts of evil instead of having evil thoughts con- trol them, It can be readily understood, then, that while many of the brightest minds in the world have made a Hfe study of the Demon Lover, and know ‘beyond all doubt th there exists some supernatural being whic is more than man and less than spirit, the world at large has never before been told of it. The marvel of the Demon Lover is, that it is believed to ‘have a physical body, which is created by the mind. This seems absurd to ordinary mortals. That, they say, is merely because the mind not trained to occult science, is not ready to receive it. There are said to be many authenticated Demon Lovers that are vouched for by the highest authorities. ö These bodies, it is claimed, are created by constantly dwelling on a certain line of thought, which, if followed patiently, eventually leads to the desired object, which, while invisible to all except the mind creator, is constantly about that creator like a shadow or a double, sharing in all acts of life. ; But this thought-creating being, the shade of the astral%plane; so vague and incredible to mortals who have not the training to re- ceive it, isa dangeroug quality to deal with. If the person who cr6ates a Demon Lover by the force of thought is not able to con- trol it, the result must eventually be the death of the creator, while the demon. grows stronger over the life that has been absorbed. They claim that even the strongest minds and the most perfectly versed in occultism hesitate to deliberately create the Demon adept and mot for ordinary mortals. As in» was out hunting, and winged a crane, He ALLEN NEWMAN OF DECKER, MD., HAS A TERRIBLE FIGHT FOR LIFE WITH ANGRY BIRDS. g There have been stories galore of thrill- ing fights hunters have had with bears, and lions and leopards, and wild cats, and other cerocious animals equipped with sharp teeth and claws, but here is a story of a man who was in luck to escape with his life or eyesight after a terrific combat with an angry gang of sand cranes. There are few birds more wary than the sand hill crane, or more careful to keep out of gunshot, but when winged so that they cannot fly, they will face the aggressor and fight Bravely to a finish, as many hunters know by experience. A wounded crane is never hors du combat until he is dead. In- deed, it must be an expert at fence or foil who can face one of them with only a knife or club. The bird stands about five feet when 2 erect and its lance-like beak poised on its long flexible neck plays about the face and eyes of his opponent in a most bewildering manner. Its glance is like the flash of a stiletto. He thrusts and parries like a master. He is light on his feet, and he uses his wings to advantage. Well matched with an agile, determined man, who has science and pluck, a bout between bird and man is as interesting to witness as the play of pitador and toro in a Span- ish bull ring. ; One day Allen Newman of Decker, Md., did not know how game a wounded crane was nor how it fought, or perhaps he would ot have attempted to capture the bird aliv As soon as he was in striking distance the big bird made a rush at him, and it was only by a quick movement with his gun that he warded off a wicked thrust of the sharp beak, aimed directly at his face, in dangerous proximity to his eyes. One angry crane was enough to engage his attention, but more trouble was in store for him. It is conceded that birds have ower of communicating with each other. t has been proved in the case of sparrows who e banded together for ends offen- give and defensive, to say nothing of crows and the migratory birds which form and move at.the word of command of their lead- er. Wher the crane appeared to be in dan- ger of getting the worst of it, it gave a shrill cry, and out of the swamp came fifteen of its companions to its assistance. They surrounded the luckless hunter and went at him with beak, wings and ns until they bid fair to vanquish him. But Newman was game. He used his gun as a club and kept on laying out his foes one at a time, while he held the oth- ers at bay, meantime protecting his eyes ; ; 3 i ‘ N = P P Baa 7 * * > = ä ‘ . —— 1 7 * — = & 8 3 * * ‘4 ¢ ö * dit at 5 5 r 2 U 5 1 8 ie l 12 RE CRE EI ⁵ — ä * Sg 7 N 18 ‘eet 2 4 4 ; — „ 0 1 1 1 & 1 * oF es 8 ak 2a ae Ge 7 8 4 2 N — — — as best he could with his left arm. ke + ee a * 9 er 5 a cee n 1 * at > 2m, Z ie E * J een ts CERNE EEE OWE RE yo TERE 4 £3 . — 2 ere ane ee iy RS) 0 iS 3 ras Le 2 eg * N ie oe | | 19 . ] 4 ai 2 . . | 7 * A 13-YEAR-OLD BOY, GONE ON AN ACTRESS, FOLLOWS HER EVERYWHERE. mee rey 3 — Here is a story of the very smallest and youngest “Johnny” or Chollie boy” on re- cord. A 13-year-old kid, who is dead gone on an actress, follows her from city te city, beating his way on trains to get there, sit- ting up in the gallery and tumultuously applauding his idol, and waiting at the stage entrance door to catch a giimpse of her, and, if he is in luck, to get in a word of salutation. : It was in the gallery of the Third Avenue Theater, New York, a few nights ago, that a small. grimy boy waited with impatience until a young woman down on the bills of “Gay New Yorkers” as Allie Vivian bounced on the stage and sang about her little sweetheart. Then the boy climbed on a seat and waved his cap until he attracted the attention of everybody in the house. The actress was evidently expecting him. She tossed a kiss to the gallery and re- sponded to an encore with? Won't Some- body Give Me a Kiss?’ He has been doing this for six weeks. He has followed her from Chicago, and de- clares he will continue to follow her. Never was thero a more persistent. young ad- mirer. Sunday night a week ago Miss Vivian left him in Indianapolis. She bid him goodby, and told him he would be a great man some day if he was The boy sobbed and said nothing. Four nights later as she was ing into the New York theater a smutty hand was thrust at her, and a tired little voice said: Hello, ain't you glad to see me?“ 6 “Why, Joe, how in the world did you get ere?“ Sneaked,““ was the laconic reply. He has been dancing attendance upon her ever since, utterly ignoring her hus- band, who treats the lad as a huge joke. It was with difficulty that Joe was dragged from his perch into the box-office of the theater for a reporter to talk with him. He would not leave his inamorita until she told him he might call at her boarding-house to see her to-morrow. „Say.“ he said, as Mr. Seymour, one of the owners of the piece, brought him in, “this ain't no job on me. I ain't going to be locked up?“ Reassured, he told the story of his in- fatuation. ‘“‘That’s the only woman I shall ever love,“ he said solemnly. I'm goitig on the stage for her sake to make money. I can't sing, but I cam dance—and I can boots.“ He was a mite of a fellow, 13 years old, he said, but he seemed thoroughly in earn- est.

Indeed, an effort was made to encourage him to sell other commodities than liquor by giving a commission on the ginger beer, lemonade, tea, coffee, and other temperance beverages sold. Any attempt at excessive drinking was to be nippes in the bud. he working has been most successful. Nobody ever gets drunk in Ardington, al- though the ‘average of teetotallers is per- haps a little less than in most places, Work- men can get their dinners and have what liquor they like, or they can take their own meal, and the manager cooks it for them. In the winter gallons of soup are dispensed to the villagers, and from 12 to 2 more soup is sold than beer.

A large number of American capitalists, including several prominent St. Louisans, are interested in the culture of coffee in Mexico—an industry that has reached sur- prising proportions—and many of them have gone to Mexico to live, with the hope and prospect of accumulating a fort- une. This fact was emphasized by the visit to St. Louis last week of ex-Gov. Thomas T. Crittenden of Missouri, Consul-General to Mexico, and ithe issuance, about the same time, from the Government Printing Of- In this volume of 235 pages, Consul Crit- tenden has an eighteen-page article on “The Production of Coffee in Mexico.“ “J am persuaded to prepare this report on Mexican coffee,“ he says in his intro- commercial ing pers orm or | formation, removal (v in aiCo, and from tied in the historieal investi- ae, , and Mexico in connec- ds bean.“ giving quite an extended history dean itself, he says: „ee is not indigenous to the country, at it was originally brought from the until 1818 that the plant was properly cul- tivated, when Don Juan A.

Of course, this ig a fair average given, and in many fertile dis@icts of Chipas, Michoacan, Oaxaca, Hildolgo, Guerrero and Puebla, offi- cial reports give from three to five pounds per treee in its full growth and from four years after transplanting, upward. “The yield of coffee depends mainly on the climate, soil and cultivation; in the hot zone, along low sections, the tree is apt to be very prolific, but the product—the bean— must necessarily be light and shallow and the plant short lived. A pound per tree on an &verage would be a very good return. “The tree in some districts lives for twenty years after reaching its full bearing , maintaining itself in a gorous state and giving the same yield; but ex- perienced planters assert that after the twenty-fifth yu the plant begins to show symptoms of decay, its crops decreasing gradually, Lng 3 8 e and ceasing alto- ether about the thirtieth year. * “Trees planted at a medium distance apart. having a fine quality of soil, care from the time of planting, and careful! reste graye Ri ges when w yield a 0 longevity of the Mexican tree ! depends on the development of the principa root and, comsequently, on the hich it can penetrate and the soil.” hod of preparing coffee for n in vogue among the na- market is © — ittenden.

This estimate,” he says, does not take into consideration the cost of the land (generally from $% to $25 per acre), which necessarily varies according to locality, richness and accessibility of transportation facilities. A small tract costs more than a large one and is difficult to obtain except from the land companies started here (Mexi- co City) for the purpose of supplying lots to intending purchasers, There no charge made for the cost of superintendence, which would vary (from to $100 a month and found) with the size of the plantation and the capacity of the respective superintendent.

Consul Crittenden includes in his report the following statement concerning labor conditions, made by Dr. William S. Cock- rell, son of United States Senator Cock- rell of Missouri: “I have been a resident of Mexico for five years, have been engaged in raising sugar cane, coffee and other tropical fruits on a hacienda near San Juan Evangelista, in the State of Vera Cruz, and have had ex- ‘clusive control of Mexican labor. I find them a class exceedingly susceptible to the management by which they are controlled; they are easily rendered useless by inju- dicious management, and may be main- tained at a high: standard with care, and by a rigid enforcement of orders and rules, with no familiarity whatever exercised to- ward the men, as that encourages insub- ordination. The lower the wages, the better the service; even though below 18 cents a day, as then they have no excess to waste and not so many holidays on which to waste it.“ “A coffee boom has been created in the railroad and steam- Consul-General Crittenden y F “and it may be well for me to suggest to the peo- ple of the United States not to believe all the exaggerated reports sent out from that country.

Mexico is a good country, but it is not an El Dorado. As in all other countries, a man must ‘scorn de- lights and live laborious days’ if he would famass a fortune or even a competency. As a rule, I would not recommend anybody to undertake coffee raising in Mexico without sufficient. capital to pay for 250 acres of land, cash in hand, and have at least $5,000 in Mexican currency to meet the first year’s expenses.“ COFFEE LANDS IN MEXICO. What They Will Be Worth in Future. The nearest coffee lands to the United States are in tropical Mexico, and they are hardly enough to grow all the coffee needed for consumption in this country. They are rapidly being taken up by American com- ergs and private individuals; Their price as already gone up from $1 per acre, five years ago, to from $10 to $50 now, and they will go up to $200 in the next two years. The Mexican Coffee Trading and Planting Co. of New York, 900 Rialto Building, this city, has a few thousand acres of choice coffee land in that country, which they are giving away with the stock sold in the com- pany. A 3 many St. Louis and Kansas City people are down on their lands now planting coffee, and are pleased with the climate and country, and the prospect ahead of making a fortune. A BALLOON ADVENTURE. Two Luckless Aeronauts Blown From Paris to Norway in Fourteen Hours. One of the most remarkable balloon ad- ventures on record ocurred in the Franco- German war. The occupants of the balloon were Paul Rolier, an engineer of the army, and L. Dechamps, an officer of Franc-Tireurs. They ascended from Paris on the night of November 24, 1870, with dispatches from Gen. Varchu for the commander of the Ar- my of the Loire; in addition they carried 500 pounds of mail, six sacks of ballast and six carrier pigeons. The wind blew from the southeast, and all was well until 6 o’clock the next morning, when the balloonists found themselves out of sight of land, with nothing but the ocean under them. De- champs collapsed, while Rolier remained cool under the critical situation in which they found themselves. About 11 o’clock in the forenoon a ship was sighted, and in the hope of being discovered and rescued by it, the balloon was lowered to within a few yards of the surface of the | water. The ship suddenly altered its course, and the aeronauts were compelled to ascend again, which they accomplished by throw- ing out all of their ballast and one sack of mail, Finding themselves in an altitude of over 2,200 yards, and in an atmosphere of almost unbearable frigidity, they lost alt hope, and determined to end their suf- ferings by setting firé to the balloon. For- tunately the matches in their possession would not ignite on account of the frost which covered their clothing and everything else in their surroundings. bout 2:30 in the afternoon a mountain top became visible.

In order to succeed at Washington a delegate requires some knowledge of the English language, as Cardinal Satolli dis- covered, and if he has traveled in this country to some extent, so much the better. These limitations restricted the number of eligibles in Rome, and it is safe to say that of the dignitaries in sight the Pope believed Mgr. Martinelli to be the safest and best rep- resentative he could select. The time that has elapsed since Mgr. Satolli was made Cardinal is of itself meat of the embarrassment by which the Po was confronted when the question of the successorship was presented. Mgr.
