A LONG STATEMENT FIJ03I MINT DlfiECTOR LEECH. The Policy of the Present Adminis tration Declared to be Friendly to the Present Silver Law. The Decline in Price Traced to the Impor" tation of Foreign Silver and the Enor- mous Output of American Mines. Other News of National Interest Pro gram of Secretary Blaine's Political Tour Speaker Eeed Talks to the Eepublicans of St. Paul The Ute Indian Outbreak, WAsniKGTOK, Oct. 28. Mr. E. 0. Leech, director of the mint, makes the following statement in regard to the treasury pur chases of silver bullion and the cause of the recent decline in the market price of silver: "The treasury method of purchasing silver has been criticised in shese particu lars: First, the large purchases by the de partment do not include all the silver bought; second, the London price is used as a basis of government purchase; and, third, the bids to the government are on a decimal system and tend to favoritism. "In regard to the first criticism, I may say that the government purchases silver as it does bonds, or indeed any article re quired in considerable quantity, by public competition, the lowest ofTers being always accepted, provided they do not exceed the highest market price. For the benefit of rmall producers, however, who would otherwise be obliged to trade through miidUmen, the superintendents of the mints are authorized to purchase small lots at a price hxed from day to day by the director of the mint, corresponding to the market price of silver. The purchases average possibly a half-million ounces a month, and are reported to tho treasury weekly. "It is not time that tho London prices have been used as the ba-is of silver pur chases under the new law. During the last administration not only was the Lon don price the only price used in making purchases, but the department did not pay the equivalent of the London price, as the records of the mint bureau will show; but made counter offers to bidders, on tho theory that silver was worth less in New York than in Loudon, by tho cost of trans portation and insurance across the water. The present administration has been governed in its purchases by the New York price, and has paid at times in excess of tho highest price at which certificates sold in the city the same day. Of course, thegoverunientacceptsthe lowest bid for the sale of silver, but it does not reject a bid for tho reason that it ex ceeds the London prices, and if there are no lower bids, will accept any bid within the highest New York price. At no time eince the passage of the new silver law indeed, for some months before has the treasury felt itself limited in its proceed ings to lower prices. "In regard to tho government quotations being on a decimal oasis, one of our critics is made to say: 'The suspicious and bignificant fact in regard to the govern ment's purchases of late is that houses ottering large lots have been underbid by the hundredth part of a cent. The gov ernment Quotations are on a decimal basis, which is a great advantage to those who may have advanced information in regard to the price the government is willing to pay on a given date. ow in regard to this.it may be said there are new discoveries, will not be ma terially increased by the present active workings o the mints. '-The new silver law has been executed by the treasury department in the utmost good faith, and in the bdtue friendly spirit toward silver which characterized the passage of tho act, and the manner of its execution has not had the most remote bearing upon the recent decline in price."

Secretary Blaine is carrying out his announced program of rest and quiet during his short stay in Chicago. Today he took a little outing in company with a party of members of the Commercial club, visiting Fort Sheridan, tne new army post just north of tho city. The Lake Shore train leaving at 9:30 to morsow morning will, it is thought, con- vcv Mr. Blaine co South Bend, to' fill an engagement to speak there Wednesday. From Sooth Bend the trip to Washington, if all arrangements are carried out, will be without a break, and Thursday evening will see the secretary of state at Ms official uusk. again. THE UTES. Washington, Oct. 2S. The Indian bu reau is in receipt of a telegram to the presi dent from Goremor Cooper, to the effect that bands of Ute Indians are off their reservation in Colorado, slaughtering game, damaging private property and Kreatly endangering the peace. By direct ion of the secretary of tho interior, Agent Waugh has been directed to take prompt steps to return the depredating bands to their reservations. The secretary of war has also given the necessary instructions to the local militarv authorities. STANLEY'S REPLY. New York, Oct. 28. A London cable says that Stanley, upon being interviewed on the charges in Bartellotts diaries and letters, said: "In regard to what I have written 'In Darkest Africa' about Major Bartellott, I have not one word to retract. What I said then I say now, and what I say is the truth, but only a part of the truth. The rest have I withheld out of regard for the family, particularly tho venerable father of the dead man, whose brother is now attacking me, and who mav rouse me, to declare to tho world that which I know, but of which he has no conception. I know why Bartellott lay idle at Yarnbaza eleven months instead of carrying out instructions and advanc ing, however slowly. I know why Bartel lott was killed killed, I say, not murder ed. I know why my personal effects were sent away s that in returning I found myself reduced to nakedness. I know, in short, all the terrible details of what hap pened between the day we marched for ward, leaving the rear guard in splendid condition, anxious to follow on, and an other day, marching backward, we came upon Banalya, hideous in death and dis ease. "I knew from the start that Major Bar tellot was a thoroughly impracticable man. When I left him in charge of the Yambaza camp, I told him plainly that it was onlv in view of his rauK in the English array that I gave :im the highest position in stead of according it to one of the more ex perienced omcera. I took great care, how ever, to impress on Bartellot the import ance of consulting these officers whenever an emergency should arise. This he did not do. It would seem as if Bartellot set out deliberately just after mv departure to carry out some independent plan of his own. I know what that plan was and the officers who were with him knew also, and thereby hangs a tale which I am not yet prepared to tell." "And how about the charge that you threatened to ruin Bartellott's reputation in the English army?" "That statement is absolutely without foundation, like several others."

PMisiirmmi W.'i 1 1 r 'a nflino tn rri-a St.Louis.Oct.28.-A bloody affair occurred near Prairie DuLong, a little Illinois ham let, fifteen miles from St. Louis yesterday. Louis Rittenhouse, 25 years old, sot of a wealthy farmer, has been considered in sane, but harmless, for some time,and was sent to the county asylum. A week ago he was released, and declared well. Just before midnight Sunday night he sneaked out of his father's house.carrying a double barreled shotgun, and went half a mile to the farm of Louis P. Talbott, where he hid in the hayloft. In the morning, when Tal bott entered the barn, Rittenhouse shot at him. The first charge slightly wounded Talbott in the side of the head, but the second charge entered the left side, and he will die. Rittenhouse reloaded his gun, and went to his father's house, where he shot his brother in the right arm and shoulder. He then drew a bead on his father; but. before he could pull the trig- held at Chairman Walker's office, to give iaza?-; nr, oeiore ne coma pun thetng further consideration to the question oi a Ser,u.s talhev Sllth3 8&pen with, division of competitive traffic.

It was unanimously resolved to extend the time one month, making December 1 the earliest date on which notice of withdrawal can be given, thus making the agreement binding on all roads until December 31. While it is admitted that the arrangements for a division of traffic have not proved emi nently satisfactory tnus far, it seems that all the roads interested, have faith in the experiment, to give it further trial. No attempt was made to agree upon a basis of percentages to govern a division of the bus iness, that matter being left to the board of chairmen as heretofore.

He said ho was glad to meet, the people and ex pressed sorrow for tho failure of their po tatoes, which he knew would cause much suffering. He Wa3 glad he had been able to sanction the construction of a railway within seven miles of the island, -which, he said, would give them employment. He promised to finish a bridge between two paints of the island and to defray the ex penses out of his own pocket. The peasants cheered him and expressed their gratitude. On the route back to Westport. a triumphal arch was erected atilulssny and Mr. Balfour was cheered by knots of people at various points. One of tho local priests at Newport said that Mr. Balfour was the greatest benefactor Ireland had ever had, and they looked to him to bring peace and prosperity to the country. At Westport Mr. Balfour received a deputa tion of Irishmen citizens headed D a priest, who drew his attention to the coming period of distress. Mr. Balfour conferred at length with them as to the best method of providing relief, which, he admitted would be necessary. The priests said that the system of afford ing relief adopted on former similar occa sions had a demoralizing tendency and suggested that tho people be employed in the construction of light railway and other works, but not unless such works were likely to prove greatly to the benefit of the district. Mr. Balfour expressed his concurrence in this view. THE UPPERMOST QUESTION IX TIL TERRITORY AT PRESENT. SITTING BULL.

Tho whole business does not occupy fifteen minutes. 'The uniform practice, as the records, which are open to public inspection, will show, s to accept t he lowest bids, the only question for the director and the secretary to determine being how much they will buy on a given da, and how favorable it i-, compared with the market price. 'If there can lie am fairer method de ied for purchasing silver, than by public competition, it would be difficult to con ceive of such a method. It is the method wlu'ili has been pursued by the treasury under all administration sine li?7S. "In regard to the recent devhne in tho price of Mlv.r. tho causes whirn have op erated to produce it are so apparent that thej need only be stated that iht'ir full fonv may be measured. In the first place, the visible stock of silver in New York has nr, sensibly decreased, notwithstanding the purchase by the government of 12.276, 47s. ounces of si'lver since August 13. This l.ugc and umiimii:ihed stock is a stand in menace t t he price of silver and 1ms of itself been sufficient to shake public confi dence in silver. If tho largo western n. fineries had allowed their product to take its usual course, that is, offered it for sale 1 1 the government at current prices, and sold the remainder abroad, this stock would not have accumulated; but in the 1' vpes of realizing a large profit, they held tliur silver for months prior to the pass r of ttie new law, or deposited it in New York for certificates, and the result has 1 r-n the accumulation of a visible stock of such magnitude as to depreciate the price. The usual demand for tho export of Si vcr has almost entirely ceased. Not only is this the cae. but larce tiiiantities t'f foreign silxer have been shipped to the 1 nited States. These facts, of themselves, lire sufficient to account for tho decliuo which has taken place. "It is well known that we are in the midst of the most active mining season, t rdoubtedly the production of silver has I ecu stimulated by tin passage of tMo new silver law. I have just re turned from a visit to the larce silver nanes in the wast, aud I know from per gonal observation that mines are producing lirgn quantities of silver today wlnca v re shutdown when the price 6f silver and lead reached a wry low fiura But it must be remembered that we are ap proi linn; a iMnod of inter months when lii.uiug is not active, and, moreover, that the present activity in working mines naturally result in more rapidlv exhaust ing their lodes. "tsilver is not a product which can bo produced like cereals or manufactured giods, ad libitum, but when the supply runs out in one place new finds must be wide before additional productions can bo oWauied. "hi far as my information extends there have boeu no new silver botmuzas discov ered, and, aside from the discoveries of valuable bilver load properties in Australia 1 am not awnre of any urge deposits of sil r which have been discovered within the last year or two, cortninly none recently bo that it is fair to assume that the silvor srouuet lor any considerable period, unless Dixon, Luther IL Wood, all City.

LONDON NOTES. LONDOX, Oct. 28. The French political journals are bringing their utmost pres sure to bear upon the government in an endeavor to induce the adoption of retalia tory measures against the United States for the restrictive operation of the McKin ley bill upon French products. The Standard in a long leader on the subject declares that thelTreiich tariff and the McKinley bill have plunged the civil ized world into inevitable war, and pre dicts that the entire Continent will retali ate sooner or later in a way that will convince the high protectionists of the fatal gravity of their error. John Burns, the socialist labor leader, is free in his denunciation of the plan set forth in Salvation Booth's book of reliev ing the prevailing distress and curtailing crime by emigration to the United States and the British colonies. The London and provincial Scotch and Irish papers publish in full Erastns Winian s speeeh on the mineral resources of Can.ida, delivered before the British iron and steel institute at Niagara, on Fri day, with favorable comment. The coroner's jury in the case of Mrs. Hogg, who was found dead on South Hampstead, on Friday night, has ren dered a verdict of murder against Mrs. Piercey, whom Mrs. Hogg was visiting on Friday. Mr. Balfour is now in Westport. It is reported that he was deeply impressed with the scenes he witnessed of the gen eral wretched nass of the peasants and the prospect of famine. 1 ho clerical and royalist newspapers in Paris express great delight over the recep tion of ttie count of Paris, and regard it as eviuence mat tne xortuues oi jt rencli roy Pat Reilly, P.

He enlisted the sympathy of a large number of young bucks by telling them the story of his great bravery on the field of the Custer massacre. Several hundred of them had agreed to go on the warpath at his bidding. The old chiefs on the Little Big Horn of fered strenuous oojections, and one of them gave- up the plans of tho reds to Mai.

THE MESSIAH LUNACY. BlSMAUCK, N. D., Oct. 2S. Kicking Bear, the great Sioux prophet, seems to be responsible for most of tho trouble at Standing Rock. He claims to hftVo visited Heaven and returned to earth to tell the Indians what good things are in store for them. Major McLaughlin ordered him off the reservatiorij and confined several other troublesome spirits in the guard house. The Indians have been making day and night hideous. Kicking Bear is cunning enough to mix Christian doctrine with his prophetic utterances. He tells them that they must not kill the whites, as the Gre.it Spirit would take care of them. He declares that the time will soon come when the Indians will occupy the earth to the exclusion of the whites If it were spring, instead of fall, there would be danger of an uprising; but it is not believed that one will now occur. Sitting Bull is doing all he can to prevent a disturbance. A BROKEN BANK. KINSLEY, Oct. 28. The Edwards County bank closed its doors today. The bank be come involved during the boom thiee years ago, since which time it has not been able to recover, though it made a most gal lant fight. Its local deposits are not large and, in all probability, will be adjusted in thirty days. Its assets are in excess of its liabilities, and the probabilities are that it will be able to resume business in a short time. L. B. Boies, the cashier and general manager of the bank, is tho mem ber of the legislature from this city, and despite this failure, has the respect and confidence of all our people.

UNION PACIFIC AFFAIRS. Boston, Oct. 23. Vice President Lano of the Union Pacific railway, was seen today with regard to the stories with which tho street of late has teemed, deroga tory to tho Union Pacific, its management, etc. With rntrard to the boycott and the effect thereof, Mr. Lane said: "The west bound through business is really all that is affected and even this can suffer but little." Mr. Lane also remarked that the Union Pacific and Northwestern alliance realty concerns nobody but the two roads in interest; that what they do is their own business. The Union Pacific people aro not at all disturbed by the so-called boy cott, and they find in tho causes leading to it, and even the ill-feeling of competi tors, an inspiration for all the recent wild reports concerning tho road. As regards the latest story from Chicago published today, to the cuect that the management was working tacitly to wreck the road, with a view to ultimately turning it over to the Vanderbilts, Mr. Lane says: "Tho yarn is too absurd to deny, and its animus is clearly apparent to any one who under stands the present condition of affairs."

A dispatch from Frei burg, capital of the canton of Freiburg, seventeen miles southwest of this citv. state that the result of the elections held there on Sunday last was productive of much lli-leeling between tho opposing parties. The radicals accused the conserva tives of winning by unfair means, one of the charges against them being fiat they falsified the ballots. Charges and counter charges were made until today, when the trouble culminated in serious conflicts. The radicals are arming and threaten to overturn the government. A report was received here from Lugano, one of the capitals of the canton of Ticino, stating that fighting occurred today between the troops and the disaffected liberals, and that some blood had been shed. The fed eral council has by a unanimous vote re jected the anneals made bv the ultramon tnues of Ticino against the popular vote taken ou October .4, hist, when a majority declared in favor of a revision of tho con stitution of the canton. While the Lugano Conservatives and Liberals were celebrating with fireworks over the result of the elections the com mander of the federal troops ordered them to desisu Tho people refused, they were attacked by the troops and several were wounded on both sides.

The publican press regards the speeches and incidents of the reception as showing that the count is seeking to bolster his preten sions in the old world by gaining sympa thy in the new, and that the plain and dis passionate utterauces of the young Duke of Orleans indicate that a return to roval rule would mean also a return to priastly rule. The Russian police are showing more than usual activity in hunting down nihl ists, and arrests are being made by whole sale nt St Petersburg, Warsam and Odessa. In Odessa, most of the victims are Jews, and if no other evidence can be found against them, they are deported to Siberia on the charge of violating the laws directed against the race. The police claim to have discovered an enormous conspiracy, involviug at the same time a reolutionary propaganda and the forgery by millions of the paper money of the em pire. THEO'SHEA DIVORCE. LOKPOX, Oct. 25. The Conservatives do not conceal the exultation with which thev look forward to the O'Shea divorce triaf, and openly proclaim their belief that the effect of the trial upon Mr. Parnell will be similar to that of the famous scandal in which Sir Charles Dilke was involved, aud which drove the latter out ot public life. Mr. Parnell's friends on the other band, assert that he has a full answer to every charge, and that at the most, nothing more than indicretion can be proven. Captain O Shea states that he will push the case with energy, as he means to prove to the world the falsity of the allegations that he has been acting without just cnue and with a malicious purpose to asperse Mr. Parnell.

Fleming, a music teacher of this city, and Miss Blanche Lynn, of Williamsport, Pa., were married on Thursday, Oct. 16, in the presence of the girl's father's corpse.

A few days before the ceremony Fleming was summoned from Philadelphia, where he had gone on business, by a telegram, stating Judge Lynn, his intended bride's fathor, was dying at Williamsport. He arrived too late to be married before the judge's death, but the latter exacted a promise that the marriage should be per formed on the oay of his funeral before his coffin. This program was carried out, the same minister conducting the marriage and funeral services. Mrs. Fleming is still at Williamsport, but her husband is at tending to his duties in Pittsburg.

The time of the morning session of the council was consumed hi the discussion of the bill providing for the issuance of county wBrratiLs in payment of county in debtedness, in committee of the whole. The different sections were very fully discussed and the formation process was a slow and tedious one. not to say dry. It comes to the relief of the county com missioners by allowing them to issue war rants for county indebtedness, excepting for buildings. The payment of warrants must be in the order of their issuance, and they are to bear interest at the rate of 6 per cent upon failure to pay after presentation, for waut of funds. It requires a publication notico to he inserted for two weeks in a paper in the county, when t e amount ou hand equals $1,000, uaming tho warrants that will be paid. This provision, for publication in a pa per, was the ground for some opposition. In the midst of the discussion of the point an intoxicated person entered the cham ber, and seating himself at the reporters desk, directly exclaimed: "Oh, get down to business. Damn the papers! Damn the papers! Get down to business." He retreated to n seat outside tho rail ing, where he remained but a short time, when auother outburst called upon him tho wrath of tho scrgeant-at-arnis, who promptly threw him out of the door. The chair suggested that ho must have thought the councilors wore discussing the liquor question. AFTEHKOON EBS3ION. The bill providing for tho issuance of county warrants was passed. Most of the afternoon was occupied in considering tho 'probate court bill, which will come up the first thing in the morning. HOUSE. MOHN'INO SESSION1. The clouds in the legislative sky doubt less interfered with the attendance of many of tho members, as only fourteen answered "Present." Speaker Pro Tern Jones beamed upon the house with his open countenance. After the prayer by the chaplain nnd the reading of the journal, the house settled down to the business of the day. A messnge was received from the coun cil returning houso bill No. 40 (Kingfi-her capital bill;, with amendments, ami house concurrent resolution No. 8, stopping the issuing of aid until January 1, 1SS1, except in cases of special necessity. The houe then, in committee of the whole, with Mr. Merten in the chair, pro ceeded with tho consideration of article 13 of the school bill, relating to sonarate schools. Mr. Currin, the colored member from Kinghsher. spoke at length in favor of mixed schools. He said: 'The colored man twenty-four years ago had neither wealth nor education; he was without anything but his color. Today he shows himself worthy of any position that is given him. He has proved himself a worthy citizen and a worthy soldier He is ready to pay his nronortion of the taxM and is obedient to law. The argument, that some of the people object to mixed schools has no weight." Mr Talbot These gentlemen who apeak so warmly in defense of the system of mixed schools would not permit the colored man to eat at their tables, or pormit them to mingle socially -with them. Mr. Jones Will the gentleman permit a question? Mr. Talbotr-Yes. Mr. Jones Have the colored children souls to save are they entitled to a plaeo in neaven? Mr. Talbot Yes. I want to ee them there, but not mixed. Let us not bring condemnation and curse upon our rata by encouraging miscegenation, by mixed schools. It has been wild that this article is unconstitutional It has been trted in other states, and carried out to the letter, successfully. In Kaunas they say there is a lame place in the school law. I represent as intelligent a county as there in in this territory, and I am surprised to h'sir the statements of my colleagues. That they should presume to defy tne wishes of their constituency, is a mystery to me I ven ture to say that there is not one nt of a hundred of the citizens of Canadian county that is in favor of mixed school-.. Mr. Wjmberly The gentleman has spoken of the intelligence of Canadian county. I admit it. He say that the people of Canadian county are UBeompro raiMngly in favor of separate school. Why was it that althouzh the acnUrmnn was elected on a plank protecting agait mixed school. I wm elected on a platform, one of whose planks expressly stated: M We are unqualifiedly in far or of mixed schools. The Fame spirit that oaav-d Fort aumpter to b fired noon and iaang erated the blooiiest dril war of history h potent today in tne opposittes to mixed schools.

I am here to tell yon thu is bill provides for the education of tho legrorace. Ninetv-nine hundredths of tho Republicans of Cleveland county want separate schools. This is true of most of ae gentlemen ou the floor. They advocate nixed schools because they wish to control .nenogrovotentthe polls. Thegentlemau from Canadian says it would bo a burdeu ome tax upon tho negro. I wish to say that in my experience Thin- fonnd that uot one neero in ten pays anything but a poll tux. The negro today in the south is only there to till the cotton field. Thoy have risen but little in the social scal -inco the war The negroes of the south do not ask to marry the white people. They care nothing about education. AVo are here bordortug on Kansas, where they have mixed schools. Eight out of nine of Loam's delegates are from Kansas; hciico they favor the system. I am proud of my met. the Caucasian rac) tho grandest race on tho face of the earth. I object just as much to huring my child educated with the Indian us with tho negro. Mr. Daniels Thee personalities runsft undoubtedly bo offensive to some of tho Kingfisher delegation. Mr. Currin Is it right to establish sen arato schools? I am hero to represent tho human family when human rights are as sailed. No colored man 1ms ever attempted tr force himself upon the society of tho members of this house. Give us mixed or separate schools. We colored pooplo wish no middle position taken, Mr. Neal proposed to amend article- VS. Mr Currin objected to Mr.Neal's position. Mr. Neal--I think the white race is tho grandest race on God's footstool. Mr. Ten-ill Will the gentleman tell ns where God's footstool is? Mr. Neal The gentleman is a little too ignorant to know. I have hud considerable experience with schools attended by whlto and Indian chiUren, and have always found that the whites were kept back. Mr. Terrill I wish to be enlightened. Thoy have talked about' God's footstool and heaven, ami wabbled all around, anil have got me thoroughly mixed. They talk to me about the sii-pe-rl-or-lty of the An-glo-Snx-on race, auu they do not tell us why they are so. Tho commingling of races has produced the Anglo-Saxon race, Tho commingling of the races always pro duces the bo-t results. The majority of my people ate prejudiced, and demand separate schools. I am a hired man and expect to do the bidding of my people. Mr. Currin We have fourteen Republi can members of this hottc, aud whatever we (the colored people) expect must boat their bauds. The gentlumnn cries out equal rights to all nien, and thon, in tho same breath, wiys he votas for separate schools. The People's party say: "Wo cannot vote for mixed schools; we am young." The Democratic pnrtv hates tho niggir. We must go to tho Itepublicuu party. I waut to see how every person. votes. An informal ballot was taken on Mr. Curriu's motion to strike out section VJO, which was lost 10 to.' Thu committee then arose, reported progress and asked that thoy bo permitted sit at 2 p. m., Mr. Smith stated that he had paired with Mr. Matthews on the color line. Mr. Tcrrill I object to Mr. Matthews being excused. Mr. Matthews was ecuod. Mr. Currin moved that Mr. Smith bo ox cucd from pairing. Mr. Daniels This is outrageous that this house should do anything in any way to causo a gentleman to break hu word.

March Into Oblivion Tliut Gav the Name to a loxk-au Stream. Over three centuries backward, and be fore the inquisitive De Soto had lighted his camp fire on the banks of the Mississippi, the Spaniards had achieved two settle-m-rats in this land of tho Occident Santa Fe and St. Augustine. They had no knowledge of the country which lay be tween these points or its inhabitants. As to what might be tho dangers and dead falls of a journey from ono place to an other they were as blindly ignorant as of tho history of the moon. But this igno rance affected them not, and full of the un easy spirit of the hour a military party in Santa Fe resolved on an overland expedi tion to St. Augustine. They knew the dis tance, for they could figure the latitude and longitude, nnd they could get tho di rection of tho compass; but this was the sum of their knowledge. Tho expedition, numbering some hun dreds of men, left Santa Fe late in the summer, and crossing tho mountains at the Raton pass, tho present route of the Santa Fo railroad, they camped that win ter on tho present site of Trinidad. The grass was long in tho valley, tho game was plenty on tho hills, their own stores were ample, and sending back to Santa Fo for minstrel nnd glco maiden, these gentle men of the sword got in as gay a season as they ever have since. Those old dons were lads of spirit, and possessed high hearts as well as a tasto for travel. Before them to tho eastward as far as the eye could sweep sprctd tho desert unconfined. What was to bo met there they knew not, but their lack of knowledge was coincident with an equal lack of care With tho melting of tho snows in the spring sunshine their women and camp followers returned to Santa Fe. The last hand was waved goodby, the last adios were uttered and tho explorers turned their resolute faces to the work in hand. They marched down the valley of the little muddy river, which flows as you read this through the town of Trinidad. Tho ones who were to return to Santa Fo watched them for miles, assisted by the light of tho sun on steel cap and harness. At last they wero hidden In the willows far down tho valloy, and this was the last that was ever known of them. With tho last flap of the last banner it was as If they had marched out of exist ence, and whether they sunk in rivers, per ished in tho drifting snows, or were done to death by Indians was never told. No sign or trace of this expedition or its peo ple was e er found. There was something o eerie nnd mysterious in the complete disappearance of this band, something so dark in the silence of their fate, that the superstitious Spaniard made the sign of the holy cross when ho recalled it. With that effort at commemoration which was the spirit of that time the little mnddy torrent in whoso valley the loot explorers last were seen was called El Rio de Los Animas "Tho River of Lot Souls." Tins was the Spanish name when Sonb tette, Choutoau. Bent, Carbon, St. Vrain and other representatives of the French Fur compan. of St. Louis, first saw it. Knowing nothing of the story and assisted only by their inferences drawn from the nsme, these translated the appellation into Purgato're. When the jocund bull whacker of the overland trail got to it in his free and easy French he called it -the Picketwire." Everj- brand it ever had still sticks, and today you will find the little vaerant of a stream pursuing its gli-tening mission to the sea. Kansas Citv Star. Kxtraordinarj- Leap of a Horr.

The Well Known Atblcio Describes the Events and the Entries and Gives Ilia Views as to tho rroTab!e Victors In the Annual Amateur Chjimplonshjp Games. The amateur championship games at Analostan island, Washington, D. C, Oct. It, will be an unusually important event in tho world of athletics. There will be nineteen events on the programme, includ ing six distances at flat runrJng, two at hurdle racing, two at walking, one at bi cycling, three at weight throwing, three At jumping and two at tug of war. The great rivalry among the most prominent athletic clubs of the United at es will bo settled for the ensuing jear on this day, and these organizations are leaving no Btone unturned to strengthen their teams. In the 100 and 220 yards runs the most prominent contestants will be Luther Cary, Fred Westing, Mortimer Rmington, of the Manhattan AthlrMo club; John Owen, Jr., the present champion at these two dis tances, and Harry Jewett, of the Detroit Athletic club, and perhaps C. Q. Sherrill, of the New York Athletic club. These aro the fastest men in tin United States, and the championship at both these distances will not go outside of them. It is thought that Cary, Owen and .!wett have the best chance of coming to the front. Ilemingtou and J. S Roddy, of the Man hattans, and YV. C. Downs and W. C. Dohm, of the New York Athletic club, are tho most formidable contestants in the 440 yards class. The chances are that either Downs or Remington will be the victor. These same men, with George S. Tracey, of Halifax, and J. W. Moffat, of the Montreal Amateur Athletic cluo. will combat for honors in the 880 yards run. Tracey won tho American championship at this event in 1887, and has not competed for the title since. Tracey, Moffat. Downs and Dohm will battle the fiercest for the event this year. The one mile run will produce a great field of distance runners. A, B. George, T. P. Conneff, W. McCarthy and F. M. Carr, of the Mauhattan Athletic club; W. D. Day, the cross country champion, and Ernest Hjertberg, of the New Jersey Ath letic club, and perhaps E. C. Carter, of the New York Athletic club, will le the best men in it, although the latter may bo de barred from entering on account of his be ing the paid handicapper of the A. A- U. It is freely predicted that the best Ameri can record, 4m. 21 2-fis will be crowded by several of the contev ts. The same men, with tho addition me lessor lights. W. C DOWN'S. J. P. LH3. It. K. TKITCnARD. E. nJERTBEKQ. GtOROE SCHWEGLEB. Will do battle for first place in the fivo mile run. It is generally conceded, though, that first place in this event will lio be tween Day and Conneff. Tho ono and three milo walks will have E. D. Lange, C. L. Nicoll and J. Gregg, of the Manhattans; W. R. Burkhardt, of the Pastime Athletic club, of New York City, and the old time champion, Frank I Murray, of tho Acorn Athletic associa tion, of Brooklyn. Burkhardt is the first choice for ono mile, and Nicoll seems to bo the favorite for tho longer event, but all are flyers. Tho two hurdles 120 yards, 3 ft. 6 in. high, and 220 yards, 2 ft. fl in. high will produce great timber topping, and the rec ord in either one or perhaps both may go. George Schwegler, H. I, Williams, A. A. Jordan and J. P. Lee, of the New York Athletic club; F. C. Puffer, of the New Jersey Athletic club, and A. F. Copland, of tho Manhattans, are the most expert ones. Many athletes think Copland will win. The running high jump will be won In the neighborhood of 0 feet, for R. K.Pritch ard and ll. L. Ilallock, of the Manhattans (holding records respectively of 3 ft. ll :n. and 5 ft. IO' in.); J. E. Morse and Dan iel Long, of the Boston Athletic associa tion (the respecthe records of whom aro 5 ft. llvt in nnd 5 ft. 11 in.), will be the best entries. These four men are so evenly matched that few dare conjecture which will win. The running broad jump will be almost as close. Tho best competitors will be Ernest S. Ramsdell. of tho Athletic club of the Schuylkill navy; V. Hal pin, sf tho New Jersey Athletic club; A. F. Copland, of the Manhattans, and A. A Jordan, of the New Yorks. It Ls thought that 23 feet will be done by the winner, and each of these four has dono in the neighborhood of that figure. If H. H. Baxter, of the New Yorks, is not a competitor in the pole vault, first honors will lie between E. D. Ryder, of the New Yorks; R. Curry, of the Boston Athletic association and Z. A. Cooper, of the Manhattans. Ryder has the best rec ord of the trio, his figures being 10 ft. the 16 pound shot, throwing the 16 pound hammer nnd throwing the 56" ponnd weight will mm out half a dozen men put together like the mythical Her cules. They arc James S Mitchell, W. L. Coudon and George R. Gray, of the New Yorks; C. A. J. Qneckberner. F. Ij. Lam brecht and H. H. Janeway, of the Manhatr tans, and several outsiders. Gray is picked for the shot, Mitchell for the hammer and Queckberner for the "5t5." The majority &f thee men may also compete in the in dividual tug of war, but Queckberner is 1. 1 most a sure winner in this event. There will also be a tug of w.ir for teams of four aien of unlimited weight, m which the Manhattan. Berkeley Athletic clnb and Acorn Athletic ciub will have the best tuau. M. Y. Ford.

"Oriphjsiclans." The latesffad in medicine is known as "orificial surgery." The dieciples of this new cult look chiefly to the openings in the human form, believing, with the great I bard, that all men have their exits and their entrances, and that if these are pre served in a normal condition the internal region will take care of themselves. The New York Medical Record styles the prac titioners of this art "oriphysicians If you have headache try Preston's Hed-Ake.' Hnrmlrs., but a Dreadful Bore. A laughable and sort of harmless nui sance is the man who strolling about wan ders into the theatre. He picks up a stray 6eat. He has not much of an idea what the play Ls about. His thoughts are rather slow, but he listens intently, and endeav ors to put this and that together. Before the combination is quite complete he hears an uproarious laughter from every one around. He turns to the lady or the gen tleman in the seat next to his own and asks, "What was it that he said?" He is told, and then he has a good laugh to him self. Just as he thoroughly digested that wit ticism something else causes laughter. He heard it all but the last word. He can't laugh without that, so he turns to the oc cupant of tho next scat again and says, "What was that last word?" Again he is told. How he does enjoy it. He laughs until the tears almost come all by himself again. And 6o he spend? the evening, giv ing strict attention to the play, but never knowing just when to lauga until warned by the audience, and then he has not caught the "last word." He comes alone. He hears tho last word alone. He laughs alone. He goes home alone. Chicago Her ald. Any case of Headache is cured by Brady crotine. "Annie, tell that anecdote Cousin Olive told tho other night, please," said a young lady to her sister, while they were making a call. When Annie had complied her sister announced, sympathetically, to the company, "You can imagine how funny it was, because Olive tells a story so well!" Another unfortunate relater of a bor rowed tale was a gentleman who ventured to ask an intimate friend, "Why don't you wear a wig?" "I'd rather dye," was the answer, and though the pun was an old one it happened to be new to the hearer, and greatly amused him not so much that he did not speedily forget the point. That night, on returning home, he said to his wife: "Richardson said an awfully good thing this afternoon. I asked him why ho didn't wear a wig, and he said he'd rather cominitsuicide than do such a thing. Why don't you laugh? But, then, women haven't any sense of humor to speak of l" Youth's Companion.

While in specting the traps he heard his dog mak ing an unusual noise some distance below him. On going to the dog ho found him lying on the ground and partridges stick ing out all around his body. The dog had found a Cock, and alighting in the midst had pinioned ten, but when he rose up eight of them escaped, hu still holding two with his paws. Thomas secured the two partridges the others all escaping. This is an extraordinary feat for a dog, and only needed a word from the young man to have secured the whole of tho birds originally captured bv the dorr Cures in fii teen minutes; Presto n Hed-Ake Ejeglunrt Wiper.

The receipts of cattle today were only one car. The cattle alleys were quiet. Nothing was left unsold. The market was steady and unchanged. More good cattle could have been sold nt good prices. There is considerable demand for stockers and feeders. The hog receipts were larger than they have been any day for several weeks, reach ing 1,803. The quality of the hogs was good. A great many heavy hogs were sold today for the Mexican market at 3.75S 80. Medium hogs were steady at $3.7-(33.80, but lights and pigs closed 25 to 35 cents lower than yesterday. There was very little demand for this latter class of hogs. I)old took the bulk of the hogs at prices rauging from 53.72K to $3.80. About everything was sold that was offered.

Her Lifo in France, and How Sho Adapts Herself to Her Surroundings. Her Sphere In KuglanU. Certainly our daughters cannot pretend to reign in France und in Europe as the young girls reign in America. There they are queens, and sometimes more, though it is very hard to apply to such bewitching persons the words "merciless tyrants." They rule in the family, and the family does not rule them: they rule in the soci ety which gravitates around their pleas ures, whose laws, customs and liberties have for thorn exclusive protections, in dulgences and favors. And all this they noisily enjoy with tho same ardor dis played by their fathers in the pursuit of wealth. The great charm of the American girl in Europe is that she combines at once the purity of the young girl and the coquetry of the young married woman. Thus in .he Old World she is certain of attracting all the young men who have abused life, who tire a little blase and who to be capti vated have need of what they call du montant. The young American girl in France, even though she should reside there a long time, still remains a peculiar being, dis turbing the men and a source of uneasi ness to the women. Once married she immediately lays aside her eccentricities. There are no young American married women that is to say, nothing in tho manner of tin American who has become mndame distinguishes her from another madame. nCR PLACE IN FRANCS. Tho young French girl finds liberty in marriage; the young American girl loses it. Our daughters detach themselves from a family in marrying; the Americans enter one. They are suddenly surrounded by a circle, by proprieties, by worldly customs, b3" social duties, by the exigencies of con jugal fidelity, by the duty of defending a reputation which has become common property all serious things which trans form their character, their manner of be insr, and gradually model them after the likeness of their surroundings. Two or three j-ears after her marriage the Ameri can in France is a woman of the world, and if she could loe her accent nothing would distinguish her from her new circle. Doubtless formerly sho commanded and was olxyed, but how far she was from oc cupying the position which she occupies in Francel True, she did not yield to respect, but in return she did not inspire it. She had more personal initiative, but she did not govern others; she tormented her mo ther, and perhaps led her, but the men of her family did not deferentially ask her counsels. Her husband in America would seek her advice for nothing. She might be a fa vored companion in conjugal life; she would not be, as in France, the wife, the friend who shares all the projects of the husband, is associated in all his acts, and makes of conjugal life tho noble life in common. And her children how they are much more her own; how she rules their educa tion; how much longer they belong to her! It is when married, in France, that she is best assimilated to her surroundings, and it is then that with us she is mobt happy. HOW SHE ACTS IN ENGLAND. In England the young American girls come in much larger numbers, not because they are drawn thither by any affinity of race, for there is often less analogy of char acter between two siters than between two strangers, but because English girls have more liberty than French a first re sistance is already overcome; the marriage able men do not perform such an eccentric act in introducing into their families as a fiancee a young miss accustomed to inde pendence. Therefore the American girl married in England remains more Ameri can than in France. She has to make no efforts to lead her mother-in-law, sisters-in-law and cousins by marriage to accept her ways, her habits contracted in girlhood. Fault may be found with her education, but the method of this education will not be discu.eL Not having to become otherwise she re mains bercelf, yielding only to what she accepts in EnclUh society or to that whkh she finds advantageous to her position or her person. In Italy, in Rome, in Florence, in Venke she remains uncb&aced. The one who marries her accepts her with all her ways. She imposes thae, almost colonises tbem in her circle. Everything is a PAineri caioe the mode of living, of keeping house, the immoderate luxury, the tone, the bearing, kalian society, having be come cosmopolitan, accepts be.- sa she is, and even at court the place given her is more American than Italian. That which is striking in American girls, and which inducts French. English and Italian noblemen to marry tbem, is that they never look like fbopkeupers' daugh ters. They sometimes have unbearable, -hocking ways, bat they are never Ttilgar. They may be charged with what we call in' France airs de cocodettes, cot not one of them looks like a tradeswoman, thongh they are mostly the daughters of manu facturers. The American girl has the science of sleaslcg irbich. c3DUTa; eTca the Old ortu uva J uans unawares, aae seems to us exceptionally intelligent, putting forth all her talents to attain tho final end which is trapping, often for his own good, a titled husband. Mme. Juliette Adams in North American Review An Anecdote of Tennyson. The late Rev. R. S, Hawker, vicar of Marmenstow, was a poet of good quality. His work attracted the attention and ad miration of Mr. Tennyson, and the lauro ate made up his mind to pay a visit to Xorth Cornwall, and he took a letter of introduction to Mr. Hawker. With char acteristic carelessness, however, he mislaid tho letter, and forgetting the name of the gentleman he wanted to meet Tennyson was in a delectable quandary. But the local inn keeper assured him that it must be the clergyman he desired to see, as the clergyman was the only man in those parts who had any time to waste on poetry. The clergyman bade his visitor a hearty welcome, and the two enjoyed a two hours' confabulation. When he arose to depart Tennyson said: "Perhaps you would like to know who I am: my name is Tennyson." "Any relation to the Tennyson?" asked Mr. Hawker. The laureate answered, "I don't know what you mean by tho Ten nyson, but I am Alfred Tennyson." Of course Mr. Hawker was surprised and delighted. He insisted that his vis itor should remain still lonser, but Tenny son said, "No, I cannot; the fact is, I'm dying for a pipe." This put the reverend host into a serious dilemma. Ho had never smoked in all his life, and there was nei ther cigar, pipe nor tobacco in the house. But presently a happy thought dawned upon him. The laborer in yonder garden might have a pipe to lend. Would the poet-laureate disdain that relief? 2o, not he. So the honest laborer was approached, nnd right cheerfully he produced his stumpy clay d a goodly portion of the weed coarse, strong stuff, but as grateful to the laureate as food to a starving man! So there the two poets sat all that pleasant summer day, the old clergyman recitinc his verse and the laureate pulling away at the stumpy clay pipe, and grunting as cheerily as a pig in a trough. That was very many yeare ago, but Mr. Tennyson is as fond as ever of his pipe. Smoking is in fact the only vice to which he seems ever to hnve been addicted. Eu gene Field in Chicago News. An Cast River Authority. Across the East river, on Ward's island, lives Capt. Bill, son of the ancient manner who ran the ferry to the island from his little tavern at the foot of Ono Hundred and Tenth street forty odd years ago. Capt. Bill is the oldest inhabitant of tho isl and, being born on its soil some thirty years ago or a trifle more, and now the guardian of the deserted buildings belonging to the commissioners of emigration. Of sun burned or ruddy complexion and athletic build, ho is the historical authority on all matters which concern the East river and the Hell Gate region. When he was born the only buildings on Ward's island were the old cotton mill in which the emigration commission then housed its charges, the old homestead of Sandy Gibson, the mansion of the Kandels, nnd Uncle John Kill iker's fishing hostelry, opposite Astoria. The visitor to Ward's island, by the way, who asks for Mr. Mill nor will be met by a stare of astonishment. If he asks for Capt. Bill he will be under stood at once, and will bo sure of a wel come. Xew York Sun. Self Cocking Revolvers in Turk Row. The connection between gun shops, cheap restaurants and ready made clothing is sufficiently obscure, yet old Chatham street, now called Park row, rejoices in little else. Perhaps after patronizing them a man becomes reckless enough to be will ing to commit suicide. It is a curious fact that the so called tough element will buy nothing in the shape of a revolver except one of the self cocking pattern, nnd this in spite of the fact that no man was ever able to hit anything with me of them at a greater distance than ten feet. Thoe "guns" have long at;o been abandoned in the southwest, tho great pull needed on the trigger making anything like aim im possible, yet owing to the demand for them in New York they are the only kind tho pawnbrokers will advance money on. New York Telegram. Facts About Parrots. People expect to come into a bird store and open up a conversation with a parrot off hand. They fail, and then make up their minds that the parrot i3 worthless. This will apply to the majority of people. They do not give the bird credit for the intelligence it actually possesses. There aro parrots in St. Louis valued at from $."0 to $150 that will not be coaxed into a conver sation with a stranger, and yet they are among the best talkers extant. The birds often refuse to "perform" when there are purchasers looking on, but onco the store is cleared of people they will chatter away as though their very life de pended on their beinK beard. The major ity of parrots will take to a girl or a wom an much quicker than to one of the sterner sex. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. They "Wero Tlnncst. The other morning as a farmer was com ing into the city by way of the Grand River road a bag of oats slid off his load unno ticed. A citizen stood at his gate and wit nessed the occurrence without saying a word. When he thought it safe to do so he ran out to securo the bag, but as ho reached it a second man came up. "I saw it first," said one. "No, vou didn't!" "I did!" "You didn't!" "Say, you!" both called in chorus to the farmer, and as he turned about each man went his way. As there ws likely to be a fav? as to who should profit by the find they dedded to bt each other by being honest. Detroit Fre Pre. Conrertilnjr Lanztinc.

The question as to whether the Inrtian is capable of being educated is answorod in the affirmative by the results at the Indian schools in Pennsylvania, Neb raska, Colorado, Kansas and the Indian territory. I tcosts tho government ?7, 000,000 a year to support its wards, and this year $2,000,000 was appropriated for educational purposes. The number of Indian pupils last year was 10,000. Tins last statement emphasizes the im portance of educating Uie Indians they are not diminishing in number, as has been alloged for some time, but are rather increasing. A FRIEND OF THE FARMER. It is a fair proposition, wo take it, that performance is better than promise, and one, at the same time, as acceptable to tho Alliance prop!e, as to Republicans or Democrats. Whatever of promises tho Alliance platform and the Alliance can didates in the Eighty-third district may have made, or be making, touching the desires of the Alliance people in the di rection of legislation, it is very certain that they are not as valuable or as relia ble as the record made by E. W. Phillips as their representative in the last legis lature. Wo hope the farmers of the Eighty-third representative district of 'Sedgwick county will not urge this, or if not knowing it, that they will immedi ately look up 3Ir, Phillips' record. Every vote he cast during the sitting of the last legislature on every measure in volving the interest of the farmer in the remotest degree was cast for the farmer. He was recognized as ono of the most incorrigible enemies of trusts on tho floor and as for corporations of every charac ter they let Ed Phillips alone. Tho Farmers' Alliance might rake Sedgwick county over and they could not find a better firiend, a more reliable representa tive of their interests than Ed Phillips, himself a farmer, is and has proved him self to be. This truth added to that of the value of his experience, and there can lie no doubt as how the farmers of the Eighty-third district should vote. HUTCHINSON FOR HALLOWELL. Hutchinson News: A few of the Simp son henchmen were today trying to work up a local feeling against Col. Hallowell because ho live s in Wichita. This is a great crime to bo sure, but not half so great as voting for a man to go to con gress who is no more fit for it than Jerry Simpson. Because Congressman Hallowell will live at Wichita is no reason that he won't bo lair with Hutchinson. Then again, in addition to being fair, he is able to do something besides making a laughing stock of himself. Colonel Hallowell will get every Re publican vote in Hutchinson and also many Democrats who were disgusted with Simpson and the trickery witii which he was forced on tho Democratic ticket. CANADA TAKESTHEHINT. By the new tariff law the duty on lum ber is reduced from 2 per thousand feet to 1, on timber for spars and other pur poses from 20 per cent to 10 per cent,and on square timber from ono cent per cubic foot to one-half cent; providing that the country from which such materials are imported shall not levy an export duly thereon; otherwise the former duties shall remain in force. The Cleveland Leader calls attention to the fact that whatever advantages we have heretoforo derived from import ing timber and lumber from Canada to supplement our rapidly diminishing stock, has been neutralized by a heavy expoi t duty levied by the Canadian gov ernment. When our duty was lowered in 1883 tho Canadians simply increased the export duty, so that nothing was gained by American consumers. The Canadian government issued a proclamation last Tuesday, just eight days after the new tariff went into effect, abolishing tho export duties on spruce and pine logs and shingle bolts. This is the first official foreign response to tho new tariff law. The McKinley bill threatens retaliation for export duties levied against this country, or other un just or unreasonable discrimination, and our Canadian cousins aro tho first to take the hint. DASTARDLY MEAN. Thero is a Democratic official in this county and ono that could not have been elected to such position but for Republi can voles, who has ever sinco his elec tion, been resorting to tho meanest and most contemptible political methods ever employed by any official, of any party, ever holding office in the county. The last act of this adventurer was the post ing of a copy of a judgment rendered against Col. J. R, Hallowell at the time of the failure of his creamery company, at Columbus, which judgment was in fa vor, it seems, of an industrious and faithful boy. As soon as possible, and notwithstanding ho had nothing left out of tho wreck with which to pay, Hallowell borrowed the money at 12 per cent interest and paid the boy in fulL Not only that, but he secured the boy a lucrative posi tion and afterwards paid the borrowed money back, for all of which ho has tiie papers to show. How many men there aro in tho state of Kansas who have hon est judgments standing against them which they are unable to pay we would not pretend to guess, but we know, as does everybody else, that bile judg ments may be a misfortune they do not involve, necessarily, dishonesty or dis honor. Hallowell has made a fair, open, manly fight. It is not in tho man to make any other kind. Tho "judgment" so posted against him is not only a sneaking lie and an outrage, but con temptible, and thero is but one man mean enough in all the country to have resorted to such a subterfuge, knowing at the time that the judgment had been satisfied long ago. and at a great sacri fice, too, by Col. Hallowell. From tho telegraphic report of dis crepancies discovered between the num ber of voters registered and tho number of votes polled at the congressional election in Massachusetts two years ago, it would seem at least probable that there may arise a necessity for the ap plication of Uie Lodge election law to the author's own state among tho first after its enactment. It L a national measure and as applicable to Massachu setts as to Mississippi if the conditions call for it. Thero ir one district in this blessed country which is getting a deadly can nonading of tanlf just now. The heav iest guns of both parties are bellowing their broadBkles night and day to save McKinley. From one side the doomed residents are getting the fire of Blaine. Reed, Burrows. Alger and Hastings, and from the other, broadsides of Governor Hill, Sickles, Carlisle, Mills ami Breck onridge. There ought to be a snug for tune tlure for the man who peddles ear muffs, in the next few davs. In his speech at Pittsburg on Saturday John Sherman made a special point of the fact that patronage is an element of weakness instead of strength to a politi cal party. 'If I had the power," he said. "I would not allow a member of con gress to recommend any man for any office whatever. It weakens the member of the house and tho senator, and it makes a cause for constant trouble and quarrel." The Kansas City Star says: Mr. Sherman hopes to see the time "when a law -will be passed separating entirely the appointing power fr m the law-making oower. That is understood to be the original design of the civil service law and commission created thereby, but it has proven inadequate, or at least has failed from some cause. The change suggested by Mr. Sherman would un questionably afford great relief to sen ators and congressmen. The Iowa judges, state and federal, disagree with the decision of the Kansas federal court upon the inefficiency of the state prohibitory laws, the former hold ing tho state laws to be valid until the United States supreme court shall decide otherwise. As the supreme court will not pass upon the question before the Christmas holidays, the state legislature can cure the defects, and no doubt will, before the higher courts shall undertake to do so. When the court takes up this question again, it is hoped it will be able to pass upon it in such a way as to effect ually settle it. so that it will cease to be a disturbing question. Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt publishes an articlo in a Wisconsin paper ouching the compulsory education law and tho opposition that is made to it, which closes thus: "The man who re mains a foreigner commits a crime against tho country which he lias sought of his own free will, and which ho ought not to have sought at all unless prepared to do his full and complete duty as one of its citizens." And yet in that state in the present campaign the Democratic party aro by their course encouraging the foreign element to withhold their al legiance to this country which they have adopted as their home and where they expect to reside. An exchange emphasizes the folly and inconsistency Of tho Alliance in disre garding its original designs and obliga tions and taking partisan action in the politics of the times, in this very pointed wajT: No secret oath-bound society can be made a political organization and succeed. Were either the Masons or Odd Fellows, two of the most substantial secret societies organized in tho civilized world, to take part in politics and attempt to dictate whom their members should or should not vote for, the members would rebel and the organization would be dashed to pieces upon the rocks of discord and discontent. The politicians who arc making the Alli ance a political party instead of a social organization, and are attempting to rule it for their own gain, will only succeed in bringing about its ruin. In his great speech in Ohio last week Mr. Blaino very pertinently declared that this is not a contest between Repub licans and Democrats so much as be tween principles of protection and free trade. In proof of this, if any wero needed, it was only necessary to call at tention to tho fact that many Republi cans are not in hearty sympathy with tho doctrine of protection, while many Democrats are. Tho two parties repre sent, respectively, tho principles as enunciated, but party lines will not bo rigidly drawn on the econ miic questions in the national election; that is, for con gressmen. Thero is some sense in being a banker in New York, if you are a big one. For in stance, the stock of the Chemical Na tional bank, worth $40,000 a share, is as sessed at only 1,100 a share for purposes of state taxation. This is where the Van derbilts carry their heavy deposits. It is the richest bank in the United States. But the small fry banks of town have their stock assessed at its full valve. Gotham's millionaires may have trouble in getting through tho gates of paradise somo day, but they go through the as sessor's ofiice on a toboggan slide. THB TREND OF INVESTMENTS. Fmm tlio Financier. The rush for industrial stock still con tinues, and as a result the Exchange is rather neglected. When listed stocks are so variable and uncertain as is and has l)cen the case for several weeks, there is little inducement for capitalists to placo money in that direction. On the other hand, chances for investment in other ways are daily coming more prom inently before the public, and as these investments aro far safer and surer at present than listed stocks, they are being largely appropriated. While general business is unusually good, there is still a more urgent demand for tinv money than can be supplied. But the winter is fast approaching and it is about time for relief to arrive from the South and West. When tliis relief comas and time money is freely offered, tho demand for securities will increase heavily. Conservatism is the only safe course to pursue, for the present, in speculative fields. When time money becomes accessi ble, trade investments will probablv loo much of their popularity, and capital will return to tho fascinations of specula tion. A prominent financier has ex pressed the opinion that if we escape se rious financial difficulty this year, wc will suffer a panic tuo years hence which will be the more severe because so long delayed. This opinion, however, was based merely upon the fact that panics in the past have followed eacn otiier at intervals of from fifteen to sev enteen years. It is tho general opinion, as we have gathered, that the worst is over for this year, and it is hardly worth while to tlread an imaginary panic in the future. Yet, possibly the dread of a panic is the surest way of escaping one. If a panic is looked forward to, Uie sec retary of tho treasury can do much to prevent it. It is the unexpected which does the most harm. Great opportuni t es exist in the present condition of things for him who can judge rightly. We have yet to see the results of recent political legislation, and this, coupled with existent economic questions pre sents no page which can be easily read. Plumb and Wichita.

What has become of the 'clodhopper" in Kansas. Bernard Kelley was In the Waukarusa wreck. Whisky did it. If Mrs. Lease lived in Russia, she wouldn't live in Russia. She'd be in Siberia. Nobody has yet referred to Judge Fos ter's original package decision as a "corker." The worst thing Cliff Baker can discover against Jake Stotler is that he eats butter on his cake. Senator Ingalls says he is Mred probab ly to give the opposition papers a chance at a repartee. For scenic effects, Kansas will agree that "Said Ingals:" will lay it over "Said Pasha" every time. A fall in Kansas is said to be one of the most beautiful sights on earth keep your eye on Jerry Simpson next Tuesday. A Topeka reporter caught Willits hum ming: "Do you love me sister Ruth?" to himself in a hotel corridor the other day. The very, very latest from the other side is that Harrison Kelley voted against the McKinley bill to capture Democratic votes. The ninety-day legislative amendment would be a great deal more satisfactory if the people could see the legislature before they cast their votes. St. John's part in this campaign in Kan sas amounts to about the same as the memory of Methusaleh does in com monplace comparisons of age. It has been suggested that any unbiased list of ten great living men of these United States could not be made without includ ing Senators Ingalls and Plumb. To the banishment of further contro versy on that subject, it has been shown that if Father Baker did possess the To peka Capital, he wouldn't own it. Tho small registration at Emporia should be apologized for by the explana tion that the Fifth avenne and Sixth avenue fellows are not quarrelling. An Atchison man has solemnly predict ed that Willits will be elected. He is a very warm friend of the man who says "Jngalls doesn't amount to anything." The corn crop is the smallest since 1887, the wheat crop the smallest since 1885, the oat crop the smallest since 1S82 and tiie crop of political candidates unprecedented. There seems to be a J. R. Burton in Ver mont. A legislator there has introduced a bill for the punishment and suppression of the persons who caricature politicians. How many people a year from today will be able to name all the candidates running at present. The immigration to oblivion in Kansas doesn't need booming. Attorney General Kellogg has left tho state right in the hottest spot of the cam paign. The same action on the part of Ives would have gained him more notor iety. When Alex Butts said that the "Kansas kids" were coming "to the front it was probably from the inadvertence of a bach elor that he forgot to add: "and two abreast."

LITERARY NOrES. Tho eleventh volume of Harper's Young People "will close witii the num ber to be published October 2Sth. Nu merous attractive featur -s are announced to appear in Uie new volume. Expectant brides and their friends will bo interested in tho series of papers on "The Wedding Season" by Mary Gay Humphreys now being published in Har per's Bazar. Nearly threo hundred songs, hymn3 and carols in honor of Christ's natal day together with a number of classical Christmas stories, are included in J. P. McCiskey's Christmas in Song, Sketch and Story. The volume is profusely il lustrated, and will bo published about the last of October by Harper Brothers, Scribner's Magazine for November contains three remarkable illustrated articles of travel and adventure of widely differing characteristics, embracing ele phant hunting in Africa, a perilous voy age through the canon of the Colorado (the first trip ever made from the source to tho mouth of that river), and cruising with the White Squadron along the coast of France. Another unusual feature is an article ("A Day with a Country Doctor") written, drawn, and engraved by tho same man Frank French. A strikingly melodious annoymous poem, "In Broceliande," and the last of Prof. Sbaler's papers on "Nature and Man in America," aro among other features of the issue. The articles in the November number of the New England Magazine, which will provoke most discussion, are two on the southern question, one bv Rev. A. D. Mayo on "Tho Third Estate of the South," detailing the remarkable growth in the south of a new Democracy, per meated by living ideas, and destined rapidly to become the controlling power; the other by Professor Charles H. Lever more of the Massachusetts institute of technology, discus-ing the dreadful mockery of law still prevailing in great sections of the south, especially as wit nessed by himself during a recent resi lience in North Carlina. No more nota ble contributions have been made to the discussion of the southern question than Uiese remarkable paper. Mr. Mayo's paper was first read before the social science congress at Saratoga last month. Dr. William T. Harris, the United States j commissioner of Education, pronounced it the most important word that has been spoken on the southern question. George j William Curtis devoted to it a special I article in Harper's Weekly, expressing j almost the same opinion, ana wisiung that it might to spread as a tract up and down Uie country.

In the edi torial on Uie event the editor claims for The Century "a sane and earnest Amer icanism." an Americanism "that deems Uie best of the Old World none too good for the New." Instead of viewing at length the literary and artistic achieve ments of Uie magazine the editor consid ers it best to celebrate the astonishing progress in magazine printing during the past twenty years in an illustrated article by Theodore L. De Yinne of the De Vinne Press. Thero is a profusion and variety in the illustration of the November number which is remarkable even for The Cen tury varying from the actinic reproduc tion of rapid pen work to the exquisite engraving of Cole in the "Old Master" series (a full-page after Signorelli). OKLAHOMA OUTLINES. That is a mighty strong Post Kingfisher has in its fence. There is but one representative of the Anadarko tribe left in the territory. The only smell Kansas gets of venison this year is when the wind shifts to the south. E. Bee Guthrey is fighting Representa tive Terrill, but'it doesn't affect his good humor. Just as sure as this legislature adjourns somebody will be wanting to call au extra session. The "Fool-killer" would probably come to Oklahoma, if he was not so busy in other states. The Devil has no branch shop in El Reno. The Eagle says there is not an idle man in town. Frisco's countv seat success will increase the fluttering of Hennessey's heart about 11 1 per minute. The Ohio legislature has been trying to imitate the body of law-makers in Oklaho ma. But it has failed. Seventy-five lots in Kingfisher changed hands last week and the wind hasn't blown very hard either. The Stillwater "Literary" advertises it self by declaring its meetings as amusing as the Oklahoma legisiature. El Reno is going to have a home dra matic company soon. The Ellis boys of Kingfisher must be flirting with El Reno. Somebody claims that McCabe wrote the governor's veto. Thero are a great many things said in Oklahoma that are not thought. If any of the legislators know "Latin" it must strike them frequently that the word "legislature," in that tongue, means "to make laws." Any number of bachelors in Oklahoma are trying to decide which would afford them the most comfort this winter a stove or an overcoat. If Merten or Foster want to know how it would feel to be in Brown, Trosper and Jones' position, in the eyes of Guthrie, let them cast their votes for Kingfisher. There are not many young men who could have gotten over the fact that they studied law under the president of the United States, so well as Horace Speed has. Judge Huston of Kingfisher, knows more about hot winds than probably any other man down there. Kingfisher claims to have the champion judges of hot-drinks, also. Thero is some controversy on the ques tion whether the body of water displayed in the vignette of the head of the El Keno Eagle represents Uncle John's creek or Cimarron river.

In appearance he would pass for a Spanish gentleman, his Chickasaw blood tinging his complexion with a swarthy hue "and giving his hair, moustache and eyes the dark coloring of tho tropics.

He is the leader of tha Progressive party and .was defeated for tho governorship at the hist election by the dis franchisement of tho white citizens by the Byrd administration. He has, perhaps, moro influence at Washington than any Indian in the territory, and has done much as a delegate and lobbyist to mould the administration's advanced In dian policy. "Have yon anything to say of the ulti mate destiny of the five civilized tribes?" Sam Paul's face lit up as though he had reached a subject that wis close to his heart. His dark eyes gleamed with elo quence as he replied: "I cannot find words to express the prophecy that is in my heart. I said before tins progress is carry ing us toward statehood. A e are at the very threshhold now. The shadow of an Indian star is already among the galaxy upon the national flag. Oklahoma was the entering wedge. Tho Oklahoma bill hit that wedge a blow that split the rotten log in two. The beginning of the end is here. The state of Oklahoma, if such it will lie called, will include the old bounds of the Indian Territory. No state west of the Mississippi will surpass it in the ex tent and variety of its resources and the general prosperity of its people. Cotton, corn and wheat will be the nromoters of its agricultural great-! ness. The rich grass ranges of the west will make it the paradite of the slock raiser The mouutuiu and hills are teeming with mineral wealth. Gold, silver and lead will make it important as a producer of the precious metals. CohI and iron in great quanity and of excellent quality will make it the Pennsylvania of the west. In all the resources that go to make n great commonwealth, the new state will be complete. Men of Indian blood will it beside their white brethren m the councils of state and assist in the j administration of government Tbeir ia- i terests will be mutual, lfte races win be blended as one. The Indian problem will no longer cry for solution. Civilization will have broken down the lat barrier raised to retard her irristable march. Oar hills and valleys will teem with industry aud thrift and our streams turn the wheels of maunfactunes. Important trade centers and roadways of commerce will pring up along the old cattle trails and stage roads. One of the grandest commonwealths in the American union will be built here.

Balch, who was the delegate from the sub-order of Sedgwiclccounty to the annual meeting of the A. II. of T. A., at Chanute, Kansas, and which order holds its next annual session at Wichita, furnishes us the following proceedings from Secretary Postelthwait of that or ganization: The ninth annual meeting of tho Grand Order of the Anti-IIorse-Thief association of Kansas and its jurisdictions met at In dependence, Kan., in Payne's opera house, at 10 o'c'ock, Oct. 22. About 2 0 delegates were present, representing tho 131 sub orders. Prayer was offered bv Bev. John Her ron, who was followed by the Hon. "Wm. Duncan, of Independance, who delivered an address of welcome in behalf of the citi zens of Independence and Montgomery county. In his address he eulogized the A. H. T. A.'s for the great benefit the or ganization had been to the property owners on the border line of the Indian territory, where- horsestealing and ciime of all kinds ran riot in the days before the or ganization was effected in Kansas. The civil authorities, owing to their necessarily limited numbers, were unable to cope with tho great number of criminals, but when the A. IL T. A.'s were oreanized and hun dreds of men in all direcrions began to act in conjunction with the authorities, then lifeaud property were more secure. In fact horse and cattle stealing has been almost entirely effaced. Ho said that, before that before tho A. II. T. A was orcanized horse stealing in broad day light on the streets of Independence and al towns bordering on the Indian Territory, was a common occurrence and that it was common for men to lose all their cattle or horses in a single night, but now that is a thing of the past. Mr. Duncan's address was received with enthusiastic applause. Mr. Duncan was followed by Capt. T C. Xixon of tho Chanute Times, who spoke to the vast amount of good done to the people of Kansas by the orgrnization, of the moral influence exerted, of the promo tion of peace and safety and the suppress ing of crime. He explained its workings and aims and that it was in conjunction with tho civil authorities und not by tak ing the law into its own hands that the work is carried on. H said that next to the courts the A. II. T. A. stands in tho hearts of the people. The forenoon session was then adjourned to allow tho delegates lo take part in the splendid horse-back parade given by the sub-orders of Montgomery county Tho parade of 300 mounted men, preceded by the r.lk City hand and grand officers, nresented a snlen- uiu iimifiumicc. x..ii;ii suu uruei in ji.uuhu carried a handsomely-executed and aDpro priate banner. Tho balance of the session was devoted to the revision of the constitution. Many important changes were made and a new office created, that of state or ganizer. Believing that it is import nt that the organization should be spiead over our state and that its princi ples and workings be made known over as much territory as possible, this oflice be came a necessity. The following officers were elected for the ensuing j ear: G M. Cotlmitn, president. Parsons; A T. Co. vice president, Elk City; A. W Po-tlethwaite, secretary, Earlton; W.B. Riling, treasurer, Gir.trd. Executive committee M Maher, W. C. Courtright, Independence; A. P. Paul, Nickerson.

ICLTUHLICA-SS IN MORTON. An enthusiastfc Republican meeting in Morton township at Center school houso was held Monday night. W. B. Moran, one of the most earnest Republicans iu Mortou township, called the meeting to order and J. M. Teogno was made chair man. P. A Rohrbaugh was introduced to the meeting and spoke for nearly two hours. Mr. Rohrbaugh arraigned the Democratic party spverely, and scorching criticisms on the political aspirants in the Farmers' Alliance brouchUlown the house time and again. He reviewed the causes which led on to the hard times and showed that the Alliance movement was the outgrowth of these times that were the necessary result of speculation and real estate gambling into which wo fell and tho short crops of the preceding years. If the Republican party could have had their way in Kansas during thee years they would have had rain and that would have saved them the necessity of educating tho people against a great many visionary schemes of the orators of the Alliance. He discussed tho legislation of both state and nation and said that thero never was a congress or legislature which passed so many laws iu tho interest ot the farmer and tho lnborer in ono session as the last congress and the last session of the Kansas legislature. He referred to tho fact that the Kansas legislature had always been dominated by tho farmer, that there never was a time when the farmers were not in tho majority iu that body, and of course, if they didn't get the laws they wanted, they alone were to blame. He said the political Alliance or People's party was simply a Democratic trick to elect Democrats to office, that the People's county ticket was composed entirely of Democrats, and he thought in all fairness tho Republicans should have had some representation on the ticket. He compared the Republican candidates to tho candidates on the other ticket, nnd paid them a just tribute for the manner in which most of them had performed the duties in tho past. He referred to the Alli ance procession in Wichita, said it was a good showing, but one of tho floats in the procession was enough to bring tho blush of shame to the brow of any sober minded man. Tho representation of one of tho leading citizens of this state. Col. J. li. Hallowell, by a jackass with a banner bear ing the inscription. Prince Hal. A young man in tho audience belonging to the Alli ance interrupted tho speaker with ''That was right." The speaker, lookiug nt the young mnn, exclaimed: "You are a young man, but if you were no older than that boy back there, and lived until the fleet ing years should crown your head with silvery hairs, you would not Inc long enough to see the solid yeomanrv of Amer ica look with favor on such a sceue as that. That is not the way that loyal hearts ro ward the man who, liko CoL Hallowell, earns the title of prince at the head of a gallant charge, holding iu his hand a sword red with the crimson stain of trea son. No, sir, you will not live long enough to witness the approval of that scene by tho farmers of Kansas. It never originated in the brain of a farmer. Some disgruntled sorehead who never farmed was the father of that representation and a man, too, who never carried a sword or musket into battle." Mr. Rohrbaugh closed his speech amid enthusiastic cheers. Morton township was the stronghold of tho Alliance and both the rank and file of both parties are becoming well acquainted with the wholo scheme to force them like cattle to support ranting alarmist office seekers, and are leaving the political part of the organization xnucn more rapidly than they went into it. ONE DAY FOR REST. Mr. C. M. Hovey, Republican candidate for state auditor, and W. S. Willcoxon of Colby, reached the city yesterday morning and spent the day calling on friends, and looking around. They have been cam paigning together and took one day off for rest. Mr. Hovey, in a conversation with a number of friends ntthe Metropole last evening, was giving a number of his expe riences. He is having some fun as well as hard work, and is quite able to stand both. GENERAL CAX.DVTELT,. Tf JLb SPKAK. General J. C. Caldwell has been secured by the County Republican central com mittee to speak here tomorrow evening. It will be remembered that he spoke at the Car works a few weeks ago, and the meeting, owing to his forceful manner and great ability in the speech-making line, was one of the most enthusiastic ever held in the county. Gen. Caldwell is re ferred to as being one of the most accom plished orators, not only in Kansas, bnt in the entire West. Ho will have a large crowd tomorrow night. COXONEIi HALLO WEL1VS .MEETINGS. Col. Hallowell spoke yesterday to over two hundred voters at Mulvane. He was given an ovation which for all round en thusiasm has rarely ever been excelled at any political meeting held in this part of the state. His voice is much improved oyer what it was one week ago. Ho spoke last night at Sedgwick and was accompanied by Senator Long, of Medicine Lodge. The meeting was a dandy from point of num bers and entnusiasm, and largely composed of leading farmers in that section. CoL Robert Mitchell, of Gueda Springs, was in the city yesterday and said the most successful political meeting in his town was held Monday and addressed by Col. Hallowell. There were a large num ber of farmers present. He said that CoL Hallowell made one of tho best speeches he ever heard, and the result was that he had made many votes there, bringing to his support Democrats as well as others. Col. Hallowell will pass through the city this morning en route to Cheney where he will speak this afternoon. THE GUN CLUB TOURNAMENT.

At the close of the polls Mamie Mahan had 310 ballots to her credit and Lizzie Carey 190. In the contest for the tea gown Miss Smith had 100 votes and Miss Stafford 77.

Young Alexander Salvini will play a special engagement of two nights only in Wichita, at the Crawford Grand opera house, on next Monday and Tuesday nights. The play selected for this occasion is a new melo-drama entitled, "A Child of Naples," written especially for him by Horace Townesand, in which character "Cirillo" a Neapolitan lazzarous, affords Mr. Salvini an opportunity to display his versatility and dramatic force. The Bos ton Evening Transcript says of his per formance in this role: "Of Mr. Salvim's Cirillo we cannot meas ure terms of praise. As an exquisitely faithful genre picture of an existent fasci nating type of character it will stand with any dramatic work of the generation. The ritous fulnes of physical life, the coarse, vived, auimal beauty, the instinct, con stant, eloquent geticnla Hn to which the words seem a superflous supplement; the paesion of rage, burning, swift to smite, awake at n word, a touch; the hot south ern heart which melts passion to dog-like, affectionate humility at a word from the gentle girl, gratitude to whom is his only religion; the laugh, flashing from nar rowed eyes and glittering teeth at every joke, the grimmer the better relished; the aoolnte naivete of body and soul through which untamed natural impulse speaks as spontaneously as through any forest animal all thee thinp, and more beyond number, Mr. Salvini snows us in Cinllo. As we have hinted, praise of Mr. Salvini's work to those who have not seen it must seem exaggerated; to those who have seen it, inexpressive and inadqnate." ANNOUNCEMENTS.

A young reporter who had come to New York from a western town, and was not ac customed to the ways of the metropolis, was assigned, as his first piece of work, to report the funeral of a wealthy but not ex ceedingly prominent maa who lived up town in a lavishly furnished house. He found the house jammed to the doors with people, and was unable, without making a nuisance of himself, to make his way any further into the crowd than the newel post of the great mahogany stairway. His editor had warned him of the neces sity of gettinga large numberof the names of those who were present, and of the enormity of the crimo of having even one of them incorrectly spelled. But here the raw reporter was, hemmed in immovably on all sides by people who looked horrified if he ventured to address them. He asked several of them for their names, but they either refused to give them or failed to un derstand what he wanted them for. "These people can't amount to much, anyway," ho said to himself, "or they would show a little more familiarity with the ordeal of giving their names for publi cation;" so he cast his eyes around for some person of seeming importance. He Boon spied a distinguished looking man, faultlessly dressed, with a military carriage and of aristocratic appearance. He replied to tho reporter's rather timid questions courteously, gave the names of a number of people of some importance whom he could see from where he stood or had no ticed entering the house. His patience even outlasted the reporter's importunity, and the latter decided that the man was a trump of tho most thoroughgoing kind. Finally tho reportersaid, "And your own name, sir?" "Oh, never mind me," was tho reply. "You don't want my name!" This was a disappointment, and the re porter's face showed it. I should like to have it most of all," he replied. "Well," said the man, "I'm J. B. Jenks, of the Metropolitan police force." The reporter was a little staggered, but he thought to himself, "An inspector, I dare sa3 or a captain at least," and added aloud: "What title? Cap" "No," said tho ofHcer, with a quiet smile, "plain patrolman. I seo you're sur prised. Difn't think a policeman could look so much like a gentleman, eh?" "Notatall," replied the repoiter quickly, "L only wondered why you were here. Relative of the dead rr an?" "No; no such luck!" "Friend of the family?" "Altogether too swell for my blood." "What are you doing then among a houseful of srch eminently respectable people as these'" "Watching to see that none of them steals the linc-a-brac!" "Come off. old man; you're trying to kid me!" "Fact!" and the officer turned away to scan with piercing looks a gentlemanly looking old man who was making his way out of the house with tears in his eyes. New York Tribune. Great Charm of the Maine Woodi. One decided advantage which this lake country of New England possesses overtha Adirondacks Is tb vastness of its solitude. Its uncleared area is so extensive, its for ests are still so unbroken by any highways, save the streams and the rough tote roads of the lumber crews, that this region can not become populous with visitors. Though many suniraerliLv (to coin a word to de scribe us summer transients) now flit along these streams, yet is not this wilderness overswarmed with visitors. Even while paddling down the streams one will meet but few canoes, und many camp at night with no neighbors in sight or sound. Some future day tho rich bottom lands along these streams may know cultivation, but now t'uey are mostly left to the grasses, the wild flowers and the deer. When I firnt discovered for myself the de lightful possibility of relapsing for a sea son into this Indian like existence, about twenty years ago, although it was then late in the summer, I learned that only two parties of "sports" (as we are called in the native dialect) had crossed before me the carry from Moosehcad into the Penob scot waters, and not until the lest day of nearly a fortnight's canoeing did pass a boatman on the river. Rev. Newman Smyth in Scribner's. IIIn Live Sareil by a Rat. A gentleman whose modesty prevents our publishing his name and whose veracity is unquestionable relates the following: "I had been picking cotton in my field very hard all the morning, and when dinner time came I lay down in the gin house, and must have dczed off to sleep, when all at once I felt a sharp prick on the end of my finger. I jinpl np and sw a largo rat looking at me intently, and he kept rnn n.ng backward and forward, but coming back at the same place each time. I picked up a nut and threw it so accurately that it killed the rat. About that time I discov ered some cotton on fire, which I believe caused the strange actions of the rat, and I believe that I, as well as the gin house, would have been burned had it not been for the timely bite of the rat." Gordon (Ga.) Prcss-AppeaL Snddenlr Trancfortned. "It's too fast; altogether too fast," said the engineer; "tevea miles in eight min utes is very fast," and he hit the arm rest a real hard hit. "Yes. George," said the conductor, "it is a little soon, but I've teen you make better runs than that with the old two-four." Then there wa. a great transformation tcence. The sad face of the driver was wreathed in uralles, hia heart quickened its palsitioa with pride, he was a bird he could ontwtnj the wind. uAh.

BNO FURNITURE COMPANY, 100 West Douglas Avenue, Two Doors West of Main Street. One Man's 'Wardrobe. The personal effects of young Mr. Ben zon, the so called Jubilee Plunger, were sold at auction, and an umozing lot of stuff it was, too. Yon r Benzon has been going down hill at a r--!tty rapid rate; tho tailors and tradespeople did not discover his evasive characteristics until he had mulcted them of goods in a considerable sum. As you possibly recall, he got into serious difficulty at Iice by forging the name of a friend and drawing money thereon. Benzon's effects were auctioned off In an old Bond street salesroom. Among them was every variety of apparel from a dress suit down to silk socks. There were morn ing coats, pique and colored shirts, um brellas, walking sticks, neckties, hosiery, scarfpins, cord breeches, waistcoats, satin jockey caps, traveling bags, watches, cigar holders, cigarette cases, hat boxes, pin cushions, watch charms, spurs, flannel trousers, crimson hunting coats, gold pen cils, silk suspenders, silk handkerchiefs, an antique sword, smelling bottles, gloves galore, etc. etc. Why, old Brummel himself might have envied the collection of finery. In one batch alone thero were GG piquo waistcoats, 139 collars, 24 silk cravat and 20 colored tiesl There was nothing small about Ben zon's wuy of doing business. When the Jubilee Plunger entered a tailor's or a haberdashery he took everything for which he could get credit. Tho swath he cut was a wide one, if it was not long. It it said that in one afternoon alone, at the time he was at perihelion, Benzon purchased cloth ing amounting in tho aggregate to $3,000. He used to boast that he would not wear the same iuit of clothes twice What a dash this delectable creature would have cut in Gotham! Eugene Field in Chicago News. A ISarlal In a Stranga Fort. Quiet and still seems everything on our ship, for an awful presence has come on hoard during the night and has taken shape there, under the drooping canopy of flags amidships, in the coffined form of the dead sergeant. "A-a-ll hands bury the dead I" the solemn call of the boatswain sound throngh the ship. Quietly and in respectful silence ths crew assemblfs, the officers grouped to star board, and, as the chaplain reads the irn ple service, rough faces soften and head are bowed in reverential awe. The bearers lift tho coffin, the marine guard present arms and the body is gputly lowered over the side into the cutter lying there to receive it, while officers and crew take their places in the boats, and a little proceftslon captain's pennant, ship's and boats' colors at half mast starts for the land, there to lay the poor fellow to rest In a little white walled inclosure on a bight on the harbor side, and where, gone before him long years ago, many a gallant sailor English and American lies, awaiting the last call for "All hands." Quietly and geotly the dead man is low ered into ha la berth; with spout of flame and circling clond of smoke tho ri fles render martial honor, and then in th sad, sweet music of "taps" the bugle sounds the sailor-soldier's last good night.

$fc WLitMlK g)ailggagle: WitilmstXkWonxing, Qdobtz 29f 1890. i ram: Mr. and Mrs. Kendal Ready to Repeat Former Triumphs. GENTLEFOLK AS WELL AS ACTORS A Model Husband and Wife "Who Are Famous on the Slago Without Sensa tion to Aclvertiso Tlmsa 3Ir. Kendal's Opinions of American Women. The Kendals are on American soil again. They opened in New York not long ago in Pi nero's play "The Squire," -which was writ ten for them, and ware received with open arms. Of all the artists England has sent across tho sea probabl the Kendals have as warm n corner in American hearts na any. Though America is a country of di vorces and tremendously jumbled mar riage laws, particularly among stage folks, still it can appreciate the beauty of holi ness in wedlock and its commercial value as u means of advertising. For thero is no question that the virtue and fidelity of the lives of the Kendals have been as valuable to them as the most sensational divorce to the average professional. The Kendals are an charming off the Btago as they are before the footlights. They are frank, unaffected and genuine. Mr. Kendal is the avenigo well dressed. vell bred English gentlmian. .Mrs. Ken dal is the breezy, bonny, genial gentle woman, the play of whose speaking eyes and expressive hands one finds most fas cinating. She clip all her "g's" in most approved Anglo fashion, and has a cunning schoolgirl way of speaking of every object, animate and inanimate, as a "thing." Thus her son is "this dear old thing," tho new bonnets are "tho drollest, funniest little Hat tMngs," and "The Old Home stead" is "tho sweetest thing." I had a charming chat with the lady tho other afternoon in her apartments at tho Victoria. "Came in here," she hospitably cried, and led me into her bedroom, where, sitting in the cushioned window seat, sho called my atx;ntion to the view. "Sec that," she wild enthusiastically. "Oh, if jou could know how I enjoy looking out upon this view! Fancy, if one were to look from a London hotel window one would see nothing but fog. Oh, this atmos phere is delightful!'' She wore a dainty tea gown of peach gray cashmere besprinkled with white polLadots. The lront was of soft white India silk, and fastening her collar was an American flig of red. whito and blue enamel. "1 am very proud of this," she said, tak ing it off and handing it to mo for my in flection. "1 havo never seen one like it. I had it made in London. Of course 1 am glad to como back: that goes without say ing. Ilad I not wanted to come bock I ehould not be here. We shall just iloublo the time of our last season's engagements. For example, we arc to play eight weeks in Now York, when last season we played a month. "In Chicago we shall be a month instead of -a fortnight. My gowns? Oh, well, my frocks are never much to look at, you know New in 'Tho Squire' I wear only tbep!aint,simple&tlittlocotton frock, but son etimes I tbinkthosebimplelittlcthings are more effective than tho most superb costumes. I will show jou some of tho very latest PanMiui things in trimmings," ami from t he recea of her dressing table fcne brought forth things indescribably beautiful Gold bands studded with tur quoises, aori wonderful girdle-, of moon light lieads with hhiniug clasps of bilver and irklecent bugles.. TJicse girdles can bo worn at one side, arrosa the waist, or are fastoncsl from shoulder to shoulder. A most exquisite one Is aligned to wear with a beautiful grein brocade dinner gown. The g iffii vvhicli Mrs. Kendal wore to tli theatre on n.ht list week was of brown cashmere, a plain skirt bordered w ill n Iwml of brown velvet, headed with giid puhscmpnterie studded with mock tiitquoikCR. The bodice has a vest and back piece of turquoise silk laid in lino plana, and full gathered s!eees of tur quoise silk. With this lovely Truck a light blue bonnet was worn. .Mrs. Kendal spoke approvingly of the great opportunity for work which women hae "in thv ttatc "1 am glad thoro is so much chance for womeu hore," bho said, "it is much more formation lien than with us Of course In England ladies utke more of an interest in politic. Well born women, aristocrats, go in for pol.uo to a great extent. Bnt now take your work the newspaper busi ness Why, it's uinaxuig how much you Amctican women arc accomplishing in journalism. It's very gratifying, I think." Mrs. Kendal was very enthusiastic over cert.uu American womn who have made arustiu and social successes in London, and especially cited the cases of Agnes Hunt in loji and Ada Italian. 'The great charm of Miss Hunt ingdon is, 1 th:ik, her jiorVc t modosty Here is this beautiful girl who takes the role of a man on the stage, and who never once by word, look, walk or action reminds you that a woman Is musqucrading as a man. Miss Huntingdon has everything youth, beauty, talent in her favor, but to my mind her greatest charm is her modesty But Ada Italian it is not possible to exaggerate the immense success artistically and socially of that young woman. The verdict was unanimous for her f he newspapers columns of praise one nover heard the like bofore. She is so very clever, and that fascinating voice bho deserved it alL 1 admire the Duchess of Marlborough immousoly. She is a very eenutiful woman, and has boon much ad mired in London. "Mine. Valda, the opora singer, who is Mrs. Cameron, wife of a very well born Scotchman, is very good sort, too We know her husband's family well. Oh, tho Anienoan women are clever enough to bold their own and more in London. "1 have so enjoyed this last week," she continued. "I have been every night and mutiuce to tho theatre. Shall" 1 tell you whura 1 have seon 'The Old Homestead' again, w hich Ls one of the sweetest things; 'Beau Brumrael,' 'Jekyll and Hyde,' 'All the Comforts of Home.' which is wonder fully woll acted, and Mr. Sothern in the 'Maiatur of Woodbarrow,' which is a pretty play 1 had a beautiful week." Though tho mother of fivo children, de spite the fact that she has scon society and the gay world thoroughly. Mrs. Kendal is yet as enthusiastic and impulsive as a girl in her teens. She is not repressive, bat npontsneons. She doas not believe it is jrood form to conceal all one's emotions and constantly wear a mask, but on the contrary speaks her mind freely and gen erously and beenir. to get about all thero is out of Ufa Success to you, dear Madge! Wc all like you, and hope you are as glad to Im back as wo are to welcome you. Asbestos. Asbestos has come to play r.a important part in certain industries.

On a through uistern train of the Penn sylvania railroad one day all tho seats in the car were taken except two. A lady sat in one, and a man from tho west with a big sombrero occupied the other. He was a fine looking, manly fellow, and was taken by those around him for a lawyer. At the next station an unattractive drummer got on the car. He sired up the situation at a glance. The lady was pretty, and that set tled it. Without even asking her he sat down by her, and at once commenced to make himself agreeable. She tried to avoid him, and looked out of the window, but the fellow's gall was im maculate, and he maintained the one sided conversation. The western man was calm ly matching the proceeding, and stood it as long as he could. Going up to the lady he said, "Madam. I see that you arc annoyed. Wouldn't yon prefer to have my seat?" "Oh, thank yon." she replied, "certainly," and the big man helped her to transfer htr valise, while the other passengers tittered at the drummer's discomfiture.

As the faction called "Jinsoes" have lately sought to create alarm about tho weakness of tho fleet and the danger of in vasion, the other party feels impelled to make this ceremony peculiarly brilliant, Rnd glorify greatly orcr the ruin of the Spanish Armada. It was, indeed, a great deliverance Ccesar, the Danes, tho Saxons and William of Normandy invaded Eng land successfully; but Miice the kingdom was thoroughly established all such at tempts have been defeated, and tho Span iards of 1588 suffered tho most disastrous defeat of all. It is one of tho stock falsehoods in popu lar histories to say that the Spaniards wanted to conquer England for rligion's sake. Philip II had many good reasons for warring against Elizabeth. She had en couraged depredations on the Spaniards by men who would now be treated as pirates. Philip, therefore, employed all tho resources of his then vast dominions to conquer England, and early in 1-8S com pleted "La Felicissima Armada," though another word was popularly substituted for "most fortunuto," and tho fleet wa3 styled "The Invincible Armada." It was a queer collection. It is not easy to realize that only SU3 years ago galleons of 700 to 1250 tons burden were classed as "enormous war vessels;" that smaller ves sels were rowed by galley slave, aad actual ly went iuto action with the hapless wretch es chained to their benches as described in Lew Wallace's "Ben-Ilur." Yet the Span ish record tells us that there were "sixtT galleons of hugo size and strength" (the largest 1,230 tons), some Levantine gal leons carrying soldiers, four ships of tho class called "galliasses" carrying tho heavy cannon, and smaller war ships and vessels carrying stores. And on thij fleet wero 18,000 Boldicrs, 8,000 sailors, 2,000 galley slaves, 2,000 suns, of caliber from A to 32 pou rulers, and the commandnrs, with quite n retinue of younc noblemen and ISO priests, the whole supplied with six months' pro visions and a very lavish outfit of small arms and ammunition The Prince of Parma also had in the Netherlands 30,000 infantry and -1,000 cavalry, picked men, ready to cross as boon as the Brituh fleet was put out of the way. The British hud ample warning, and were thoroughly aroused to tho need of r.c tion. The Fca commanders usually spoke of the Spaniards with nndisguUed con tempt, but the land soldiers took a very serious view of things, for Spain was then admitted to bo tho greatest power in Europe, and Spanish infantry had done terrible work wherever engaged in that generation. So a commission of noblemen and gentlemen was convened, and ordered beacons to l set on every commanding point on the sea coast, ready for lighting, and continuous signals across tho king dom, that tbo yeomanry might gather at instant notice. Tho national spirit was roused and swelled Ligh. The pooreat la borer provided himself with n weapon, if nothing better than a stake hardened in the flre, and the contemporary dasenptions tell of men walking the coast with picks, scythes on poles and long handled axes. But in tho navy thero were experienced men and sensible preparations, though both wero sadly hindered by a corrupt and inefficient administration, and, as it turned out, the sailors wero forced suddenly to fight when but half ready.

The Spaniards suffered severe ly, and got two ships disabled that night by collision. On Monday thero was occasional fighting all day, with moro loss to the Spaniards. On Tuesday the wind favored them, and they attempted to close and board, but the English marksmen shot the galley slaves from their benches and defeated that scheme. Tills was Frobishcr's day of tri umph. Then the Spaniards turned and sailed up the channel, and from every port camo every kind of vessel, even a fisher man's catboet, to annoy r&KU.

Many vessels foundered in the North sea, many moro were wrecked on tho Irih and Scotch coasts, and of the 30,000 or so who sailed from Spain in the Armada not quite one third ever reached home again.

Value of Seasonlns Designers of Adver tisements The Happy Woman-Slake Womanhood a Specialty The Modern Girl Must Know Everything. It is a land of corn and wine that borders this turbid river, but its fruits are not gathered without its women. They want not wives, these Rhenish peasants say, who Bit in rocking chairs. It is the girl who sings the loudest in the vintage who soon sst gets a husband. Twelve cents a day is the wages she earns besides the prospect of marriage. Forty cents is a man's hire, with two quarts of the poorer wine. And when the rustic lover has married his sweetheart then you will see her climbing the hillsides in the morning to cut grass for their cow. If you walk you will notice everywhere the low stone posts sot back a few feet from every highway. Between these and the beaten track the peasant women's sickles are always busy, for these little margins are public property and supply grass for tho summer and hay against the winter time. You will meet her, too, with an enormous weight of wood on her head, a load that a man could not carry, dead sticks picked up in the forest. Or you will pass her digging in the little patch of vines and potatoes that every peasant owns and leaves his wife to plant and hoe and harvest, while he hires out to a vineyarder. This is her morning her housekeeping and at 1 o'clock she, too, is ready for half a day's hiring to pull weeds or train vines. And withal she bears many children and finds life not less pleasant than women of other lands whose tasks press not so heavily. Cor. New York Com mercial Advertiser. Tho Valne of Rich Seaaonlng.

Mrs. Christine Terhuno Herrick in llarper's Bazar. Designer of Advertinemonts. Clever draughtswomen in various sec tions of the country are doing a brisk busi ness getting up striking pictures that they Bell at high rates for advertising purposes. If they succeed in hitting upon a novelty adapted to some particular trade a quick and handsome profit is the result. A couple of sisters who were left entirely de pendent on their own exertions happened upon a combination scheme. One of the girls possessed a knack for rhyming, whilo the other was ready with her pencil. Hav ing neither money nor influence, their con dition seemed pretty serious, when as by inspiration the eldest sister sketched a Oceing army of bugs pursued by a bottle having tho wings and head of a seraphim and carrying a flaming sword. It was not much of a picture after all, but a firm bought it of her and asked to Bee other designs. This first encourage ment set her wits to work, and she soon turned out a number of effective sketches. They were nearly all accepted, and when tho youngor girl supplemented tho draw ings with odd and catchy bits of verso they were paid double for their work. For two years these young women have lived in comparative ease on their jingles nnd pictures, that bring in a tidy monthly income. Illustrated American. The Ilnppy Woman. I know a woman whose lot in life is ono of the pleasantest, and far abovo the aver age. She has a loving husband command ing a comfortable income, onoof thoswect est babies in tho world, and a home that is a perfect picture of artistic beauty and do mestic comfort. Yet she is discontented because just opposite to her homo lives a woman whose fortune borders close to a million dollars, left her by her husband. Sho has her retinue of sen-ants nnd gorgeous livery, and everything in the world appar ently to make her happy. Is she? Listen to her own words, as told to a member of my family: "I suppose the world regards me as a happy woman; but It docs not know how I suffer! What is my money to mo when at the strike of the midnight hour I awake, as I often do, and Ptretch fort h my hand in vacancy for the form which lies in the graveyard, or turn to the crib in search of the little form that lira with him! I tell you, my dear, money is a mockery when your heart longs for companionship and for sympathy!" But yet her neighbor across the way, who at night needs only to stretch forth her hand to touch the shoulder of her protector, and hears the soft breathing of her infant child, envies this woman her happiness I Ladies' Home Journal. Make Womanhood Your Specialty. Homomania is a straw, we are told, that shows the trend of feeling nnd ambition among women of all grades. Having asked for and obtained tho inch of equality, we will be content with nothing short of the ell of acknowledged superiority. Satirists point to such indices of popular sentiment hs incident to the history of all emanci pated serfs. To the lover of womankind these telltale floats bring pain and uneasi ness. If woman would bo truly great she must be great in a womanly way, and within the pale of the sex she reverences too fondly to risk confounding it with an other. The pathway to success In this age la trodden most securely by the specialist. J,et woman make a specialty of woman hood, and the incommunicable obligations and opportunities that belong to it. Cos tume is more than a badge. It is a symbol and a pledge. All nations and ages have accepted this as truth. The least offensive Implication of the homomkniac's dress and ways is that she is disAtisSed with her gender; that she desires to look and act and feel as little as nossih'e like a woman and is much as may bo like her exemplar aud superior man. Marion Harland in Rett York Herald. Tha Modern Girl Matt Know Everything. The conditions of modern life in thia great and growing country nre fetich that the average American girl of more favored circumstances may step from the school room, generally before she is 20 years old, Jsto a station where the demands of domes- tic, social, cliu.nta.uit: aua practical alTairs leave her littlo time for further systematic study, and yet tax every resource of her store of knowledge and acquirement. If then she is confronted with subjects of which she is ignorant, but with which she should have acquired at least a speaking acquaintance while at school, she may justly reproach her teachers that they have adopted the mistaken policy of educating a girl who was to leave school at 20 on the plan requiring a continuance at school till at least 23. Though many have doubted tho possibility to provide for this ac tive and proper demand without com promise which is unfair to thoroughness, and which will not result in superficiality, I am justified in having adopted and for many years defended such a plan by the highest authority among the educators of modern times. Mrs. Sylvanus Reed in Scribner's. Children,' nights. If a child has any sensibility scolding either kills it or makes it vicious. Chil dren have rights which ought to be re spected as much as with their ciders. They can reason as well as older and wiser beads. They are as quick to see an injus tice, and know as well as any one else when parents are making fools of themselves. The household of a noted dramatist in New York is said to be a democracy. The voice of the youngest child in it is as po tent as that of a parent. This is a rare incident of the recognition of children's rights, and while it might not prove successful if generally applied, ow ing to parental incapacity, who can say that it is not a plan of wisdom, and one that in many cases might work wonders of domestic harmony? While oftentimes children have been ruined by indulgence they have frequently been spoiled with "discipline." Children were never designed for nonen titiesa fact in proof of which the omni present small boy stands out with monu mental prominence. While children can be allowed to become a nuisance by tho laxity of parents they can, on tho other hand, be oppressed until they become atro phied in mind and heart and soul. Al bany Journal. For Children's Sparo Hours. A pleasant pastime for children origi nated in the active minds of some Kansas youngsters, and was called "The Children's Industrial Exposition." In vacation days six littlo ones, between the ages of 7 and 12, worked busily with their hands on all sorts of industries with which they were acquainted, and dolls' houses and furni ture, clothing, egg shell vases, ladders, pumps, small herbariums consisting of small collections of plants neatly labeled, leaves of trees and specimens of forest woods, chicken feather fans, small tables, benches, boxes, boats and drays in wood work, scroll saw baskets and frames and wall paper fans were among the products of their toiL These were exhibited on neatly deco rated tables in "Basement hall." The pro ceeds of the small admission fees were ap plied to premiums for exhibited articles. The cards attached to the articles, as well as the posters used for the occasion, were hektographed by the children, and tho affair proved a very happy and interesting ono for all concerned. Hero is a hint for vacation employment for children. New York Ledger. Be Careful of Tour Broom. "With a little care brooms can bo kept equal to new for a long time, as, with everything else, they must bo well treated to do their best work. Always scald a new broom before it has ever been used. Pour boiling water all over tho broom where it is attached to the handle; then stand the broom up to dry, with the end of the handle resting on tho floorand the straws uppermost. This treat ment renders the broom soft and pliable, making it wear better. When a broom is not in use never stand it with thestaws next the floor, for it tends to make the broom one sided and spoils its shape. Rather stand the broom so it will rest on the end of tho handle, with tho Btraws lightly leaning npinst the wall; or better still, pierce a hole through the top of tho broom handle with a red hot nail, run a string through it and tie in a loop to hang tho broom up by. Then see that the broom is always hung up clear of tho floor when it is put away. Youth's Companion. Color Daring Mourning. There is much to be said ngalnst the cus tom of wearing mourning. "When carried to excess it is a reprehensible one, as it casts a gloom over the family circle and is an eternnl reminder of tho loss sustained. It is of course incompatible with one's feelings to don a colored gown immediate ly after tho demise of a friend, although tho heart may throb as sadly beneath a rose colored robe as it might under one of as funereal a hue as that of Hamlet's inky cloak. It has become quite common of late years for dying people to ask their survivors not to wear black, and these well intentioned requests are often productive of embarrass ment, as it is difficult to explain this fact to the world. A lady once told me that ono of tho most trying ordeals she under went during her whole life was the wear ing of a blue bonnet to her father's funeral, his last wishes being that the family should attend in their ordinary attire. Jenness Miller Magazine. Dress Its Proprieties and Abuses. Shun peculiarities of dress which attract tho vulgar. Materials may be humble, but they may always bo tastefully made and neatly kept. It is a shame for a woman to dress unat tractively who has it in her power to dress well. Dress in such a manner that your attire will not occupj your thoughts after it is upon j'ou. That mode of dressing the form and face which hot hHrmonizi's. with its beauty is that which pleases God best. A woman wki made for something higher than a convenient figure for displaying dry goods and the possibilities of millinery and mantua making. Good Housekeeping. Koumanlft's Pretty Queen. Her majesty of Roumaniu, who under the name of "Carmen Sylva" is well known both as poets and authoress, is. at the age of forty-evcn, stiil a beautiful wom an She is tall, with an extremely good figure, and, but for the silvery lines which oave dimmed the brightness of her golden hair, still rruins most of tho beauties of iter youth. Her eyes ate quite bewitching, tcinc laree sud bine, with a delicious dreamy look. She has a really classical moi th, exquisitely whir, regular teeth, a llne'y cat nose and small, well shaped hands and feet. She was very quietly dressed in a gray tweed walking gown. When at home, I hear, her majestj greatly affects the picturesque costume of the Roumanian peasant. She is quite an indefatigable worker, and rises every morning before it is day. She is firm in her refusal to allow her maid to attend tier, but lights her own lamp, and sits down at her table to spend an hour or two over her MSS. It would take too long to enumerate ail her books, many of which are well known, and she has also written the libretti of several successful operas. Cor. Philadelphia Telegraph. Turo Air for the ltnby. It is tie opinion of a noted specialist on diseases of the nose, throat and lung? that one baby in every three has a growth in the nose that obstructs nasal respiration. One evidence is seen in the baby hospital, the great number oi sleepers breathing throuen rno mouth entirelr. The dissasa. generally hereditary is taantatea bytne very bad air supplied the little one, who, if put to sleep with a nurse or adult, gen erally inhales bodily exhalations from un der cover. It will be well for the health of young America when the old fogy idea of putting babies to sleep with their heads covered is eradicated. A baby to grow good, stout lungs must have good, pure air in abund ance. It is neither natural nor wholesome to smother the tot, nor is an even temper ature necessary to keep him from catching cold. The babies that live in the open air are the healthiest. New York World. The Care of the Breast. When the milk accumulates or "cakes" in the breast in hard patches they should be rubbed very gently from the base up ward with warm camphorated oiL The rubbing should be the lightest, most deli cate stroking, avoiding pressure. If lumps appear at the base of the breast, and it i3 red, swollen and painful, cloths rung out of cold water should be applied and the doctor sent for. While tho breast is full ad hard all over not much apprehension need be felt. It is when lumps appear that the physician should be notified, that he may, if possible, prcvont the formation of abscesses. Medical Interview. No Rocking for Baby. Aside from the sentiment it is not wise to rock a baby, it is also a woman's notion that tho eternal swaying facilitates sleep. The lullaby is quite as effectual and consid erably sweeter rendered in a stationary chair. In tho baby hospitals, homes and asylums of New York, where thousands of little ones are carefully and tenderly reared, rocking chairs and swinging cribs are abolished on the ground of nervous disorders. The death rate is not only lower than among private nurseries, but the gen eral health and habits of the babies is con siderably better. New York Letter. A Novel Plan. A Parisian lady, Miss De Broen, is con ducting a medical mission in Belleville that is without a parallel in the history of medicine or religion. "The littlo iron chapel like building is built on the spot where a number of communists were shot down after the peace of tho Franco-Prussian war had been proclaimed. The patients assem ble in the pretty little chapel, and while waiting their turn to enter the adjoining dispensary listen to sweet music played on the organ by a volunteer. Advice and medicine are given by the house physician and no fee is charged. Paris Letter. Women Doctors. This is tho pleasant way in which an em inent English physician, SirWilliam Gull, speaks of medical women: "I think one ought always to help women studying medicine in every possible way. I have the greatest respect for the ladies now prac ticing in London, and feel sure that they must fill far more satisfactorily than the average medical man could pretend to do certain posts. A young child at first would always rather bo attended and operated upon by a woman than by a man, though they get wonderfully soon accustomed to 'the doctor.' "Exchange. It is a mistake to feed children from re hashes. The food to be palatable should be prepared for each meal, and the vessels and spoons require as much care and neat ness as an adult would exact. Tho com mon practice of making in the morning a supply of food for the day is most per nicious, as there are chemical changes go ing on and accumulations of dust and ani mal life which render it unfit for the child. At a day wedding, no matter how the bride dresses, the groom wears a black cloth coat and colored trousers: at an even ing wedding ho wears a dress suit. Tho bride may wear a traveling dress and hat at a day wedding either at her home or at church." The groom furnishes gloves for the ushers. The bride and groom lead tho way to tho dining room after receiving congratulations. Mrs. Isabella Bird Bishop, better known as the indefatigable traveler, Miss Isabella Bird, has obtained from the maharajah of Kathmir the grant of a piece of land on which to erect a hospital and dispensary for women, the first building of this kind ever thought of in the domain of his high ness. French toast is always a favorite dish for lunch or tea, and is very easily made, nnd is nice to use up slices of dry bread.

The Queen of Roumania, well known as an author, was led to poesy by sorrow, as Shelley says poets always are. Her majesty's only child died at an early age, and the queen became an author to dis tract her mind from this bitter grief. A pretty way to arrange French win dows would be to have a small rod at the top of each of the three panes, from which hang curtains of thin silk, each a different color, like pink, yellow and pale blue, or terra cotta, dull green and white. Common horse radish grated into a cup of sour milk, then strained, is said to bo an excellent lotion for removing freckles. An ounce of lemon juice in a pint of rose wa ter will also answer the same purpose. Both are harmless and good. Mrs. Agnes Reynolds is a dealer in blue stone. She can figure to a nicety the ma terial for flagging or paving, and knows exactly the kind and value of building stone used in uptown sections of New York. TTot a Stylish Bishop. That others besides boys and girls some times make mistakes as to tho things they can or cannot do is shown by an anecdote told as happening to a young man who thought he should like to work with the late Bishop Patteson in the islands of the Pacific. The story runs as follows: Mr. A. came from England to be or dained by Bishop Patteson when the head quarters of the mission was at Kohimar ama, a few miles from Auckland, on the coast of the land locked harbor. Soon after his arrival in Auckland he hired a boat to take him to the mission station. There, to his surprise, he found no wharf, no impobiug row of buildings, no pier, and he had to wait in the boat until some one could be got to carry him ashore through tho water. In response to his shouts a man in a flan nel shirt and trousers waded out at last from the shore and "fcave a back" to the newcomer, landing him dry on the beach. In answer to inquiries for the bishop's pal ace a small building close by was pointed out, and to a further question of "Where is the bishop?" the man in tucked up flan nels said, "I am a bishop!" Exchange, Why They Are Called Alligator Pears. Did you ever see an alligator pear? If not, take a look at the first uncouth ob ject on a fruit stand, and you will strike it dead sure. They weigh about a pound apiece, and when unripe are as green as the man who thinks he can be elected to congress, and when ripe are about the color of a second hand mahogany bedstead with plenty of varnish sprinkled oVer it. They derive their name from the fact that alligators are very fond of them, and get a plentiful supply by standing on their heads and knocking the fruit off the limbs of he tree with their tails.

How an Ira spresslble, Effervescent, Pray ing Fiend Wa Shut Up. When the Rev. James Archer took charge of the Lone Zion church he found the con gregation thereof in a most demoralized condition. His predecessor, after making some heroic attempts to head off the strayed sheep, had thrown up the sponge and re tired in disgust. "Causes depart, but effects remain," murmured the Rev. James as ho sur veyed the ghastly array of empty benches to which he had preached his opening ser mon. Unfortunately it was the cause as well as the effect that remained in Lone Zion, as he very soon found out, said cause being a large, red faced saint named Bangs, who pursued the calling of a usurer during the week, brazenly demanding 8 per cent, a month on all money advanced, but when Sunday came presto! what a change! Donning his religion with his Sab bath clothes ho proceeded to occupy tho front pew in church, till carried away by an excess of fervor ho would advance to the chancel rail and fairly bombard heaven with prayers. As the Lord was expected to do all the giving, Brother Bangs gener ously requested favors not only for the members of the congregation, but for nil Jews, pagans, infidels and the sinful world at largo. In a word, he prayed both for the favorites and the field. Such was the state of affairs when the Rev. Mr. Archer devoted an entire week to parochial visiting, and with tears in his eyes implored the recreant worshipers to return. "No, sir, no," was the invariable reply; "as long as you let that fellow Bangs sit up there in the front pew and run the praying we ain'i going to come back. The idea," continued the scoffers indignantly, "the cheek to lead in prayer and ask fa vors for honest folk. Go and hush Bangs up and then we'll see about coming back." Bangs, however, refused to be hushed up. Despite the minister's entreaties and ex postulations he continued to practice usury and religion with the same fervor and suc cess. One night during tho week a prayer meeting was in order. Much to the Rev. James' surprise quite a number of the dis gruntled members attended the services. During the opening hymn a citizen, at tracted by the music, strayed in and sub sided quietly in a rear pew, where he amused himself staring stupidly around. Never had Brother Bangs been more im pressive in his amens, more fervid in his singing, more plaintive in his prayers than upon this special evening. Finally in a state of spiritual efferves cence he rushed out of his pew, caught hold of the chancel rail, nnd soared heaven ward on the wings oi prayer. Sighs, groans and exultant whoops lent dignity and impressiveness to his exhortation. "Oh Lord!" ho pleaded, "we pray thee to grant us all good things we pray thee to lift up our hearts and give us a higher in terest in heaven" "What!" yelled the horrified man in the back pew. "What! higher interest than 8 per cent, a month! Great Scott, man, that's high enough for heaven, earth, or hell either." Brother Bangs promptly collapsed, and after that evening tho Lone Zion congregation saw him no more. Elvira Miller for Chicago Special Press Bureau. Some Fanny Newspaper Rnlls. There were some good newspaper bulls during the session all of the genuine Irish breed. Mr. Donal Sullivan introduced to the house one from an Irish paper. It was in the form of an advertisement for a labor er and a boy, and concluded thus: "With grazing for two goats; both Protestants." An Irishman writing in The Times on the late Baron Dowse concluded his eulo gium: "A great Irishman has passed away. God grant that many as great, and who shall as wisely love their country, may fol low him." A Dublin paper heard that "the health of Mr. Parnell has latterly taken a very serious turn, and that fears of his recovery are entertained by his friends." Several English papers quoted this without detecting the bull. A Cork paper, in describing an Interval of peace in a stormy public meeting, said, "For Eome time a great calm raged." St. James Gazette. A Foot Race for a Bride. A novel foot race took place at Chatta nooga, the prize being nothing lea than the hand of a mountain maid, Polly An drews, the bello of Walden's ridge. Tom Mitchell and John Yonleet sued for her fa vor and she was unable to decide between them. They, being in earnest, proposed a duel, to which the girl demurred, realizing that if one were killed and the other a fugi tive she would lose both. As the crucial test she decided upon a foot race from the Tennessee river to Fair mount, on the summit of Walden's ridge, a matter of ten miles, much of it a steep climb. The men started at 2 p. m., and at 6:10 Vanleet reached the goal, a country postoffice. His rival came in a bad second, fifteen minutes later. The beaten man ac cepted the situation and Miss Polly accept ed tho winner. Cor. Nashville American. Th Patter of the Shingle. Opinions are much divided as to the efficacy of "apankinR." so called.

"The Doctor's Wife" in Leisure Hours. When Walking for Kxerclse. In taking exercise it is better to be lifted away from the thought, "This is for my health." Herein lies the value of connect ing with it genial companionship, exhila rating sport, delightful scenery, varying views, or errands of mercy. It is true that we are often shut up to exercise as the sola end, but even then we may increase its worth by a little thought. A walk along the river course, or through fields and over hills, however familiar the scenes may bo, is more helpful than one through a long, dull lane or a squalid suburb. Youth's Companion.

HDD'S CAVE. "Queer tales of Mr. Hudson, eh?" "Yes," answerea my friend, as his steam yacht shot along the glassy river, dodging In and out among canal boat villages, schooners, ice barges, lordly steamers and a world of small sail. "Tell me, have yon never encountered a real, nerve creeping legend along here among these Highland shadows some companion tale to the wraith out of which Rip Van Winkle grew? You spend months darting up and down, in and out here amid the bows and frowns of Crow's Nest, Dunderburg and Storm King." My friend, a scholarly idler, whose pet fancy was colonial history, leaned back on the bench by the tiller and was lost in thought. Tho valley of the Hudson was visible by a turn of the head through more than fifty miles from the Catskills on the north to the Fishkill Highlands to the south of us. We were at that moment be tween New Hamburg and Poughkeepsie. That marvel, the most remarkable bridge in the world savecne. reached out like a 6pidcr's web from shore to shore above the gleaming water. A few 6pires of Pough keepsie pierced the green upon our right. The castles of rich men peeped at us from tho verdure clad banks, and here and there from a velvet park the Yankee liberty pole held aloft the red, white and blue, flutter ing in the sultry midsummer sheen. "Why, yes indeed!" suddenly exclaimed ray friend. "We'll go ashore there. Old Zeek Watt. Tromp's cave. Capt. Kidd's money. Did you ever hear of Tromp's cavern We'll go ashore." And promptly the graceful little craft began to spring in toward a small covo that sweeps in a few miles below Poughkeepsie, on the east bank. "There's an old chap here who once vol unteered to lead me in there," said my friend. "Ah, there's his hut, up there among those coves of arbor vitie." We soon got a dollar or two into old Pete Puyster's hand and unlocked his tongue Yes, there were countless millions in there. Ho had seen the chamber where the iron pots were hid. Why did he not lift a pot or two out? He shook his head. We pressed our question. Why should he be taking rare dollars from visitors, or beg ging up and down the highway, if he knew where there were pots of money? It took considerable of this questioning to get from Puyster this somewhat start ling repty: "Ye see I'm the great-grandchild of Zeek Watt, Tromp him as tho cave is named after in these parts. Well, Zeok he is, or was, the child of Capt. Kidd and--and" and the old fellow paused His bronze cheek bones lost their color, tlii only spots on his bearded face that cou Id palo with emotion. It took another dolla-' from my friend's prodigal hand to open tho old fellow's lips again. After m interval of deep meditation he arose feebly, tottered into his hut, brought out an ancient Dutch Bible and said: "Gentlemen, swear on this that you will never reveal what I'm 'bout to show you. I'm getting very old. I'm 91 in August. 1 can't last much longer. I may as well tell it afore I die." Wo declined to swear, but gave the pa triarch anothca dollar. Avarice is the sin of age. We argued long on the point that he was nearly through with this world anyway, and he would make a powerful friend of my wealthy friend for his last sickness by wholly revealing to us the mysteries of the cavern. "Especially do I wish to know about tho woman in the case," exclaimed my friend. "Who was Matt Tromp's mother? Who was tho fair prisoner whom Capt. Kidd left hero in charge of his wealth and his baby heir?" Old Pete stared hard at us. "Who said anything about any bride?" he asked. "Why, you left us to infer that that there was a wife, presumably a bride, for Kidd was not long in one place. And 1 presume her spirit haunts the place yet, guarding those pots of gold." As I -volunteered this you could have knocked Pete down with a feather. I feared I had destroyed the day's fun, for during tho next ten minutes tho patriarch scarcel y moved so much as to breathe. We gave him yet another dollar. Then he arose like a mannikiu, lighted a lantern which he had probably stolen from some freight train on Mr. Vauderbilt's road jut below, and mumbled: "You fellers are prophets. You seem to know. Take your own risks if you dare. Come on." We followed him to tho eutrance of the cavern. Every one has read of the phys ical tortures endured by adventurers while penetrating a cave. I had, but no descrip tion can do justice to the facts. You are prepared of course to ruin your clothing, but you naturally recent tho demands made on your epidermis. Yielding all hopes of keeping a whole skin, you yet draw the line at your bones. In fact, however, you must draw no lines: bo satisfied if you can draw your breath. Not that the air was so foul, but I have al ways found it difficult to breathe the dark ness. I must have light in my air, even the gas burning i,t night while I sleep. If you were to turn off the light in my cham ber I should immediately awaken from tho soundest clumber. This habitude came with our first laby in tho home. I can also sleep better with a little noise going on, for the sjime reason. Sdeuce is to me terrible. The cavo was the profoundest silence, the most awful darkness. The dust of 1,000 years lay like a carpet on the stones. The valley winds had btrewn the cavern's throat with sand leaves till we sink into it three inches. It was a perfectly dry cavern. "Do you see them shoe tracks?" asked Pete, pointing down, with his lantern held low. How grateful I was for the voire, though it was taken up and echoed in dis mal cadences. In fact the sepulchral echoes of our voices were so frightful that from the first I had dreaded to use this means of shattering theTsilence. "Them tracks are b Capt. Kidd's own shoe, a giant's foot. And right here along side is the pretty little shoe of the woman. That's tUe time she went in for the last. Ho was carrying some of the gold and sho was carrying the baby boy. When 6ha goes In ana out now uno don't leave any tracks." Surely there were tho footprints, ex plain it who may. "Sho goes in and ont nowadays, does she?" asked my friend. For my part I was too dumb with fright to speak, peer ing forwanl with the dread of seeing the ghostly lady start out of the gloom. "Every Christmas she comes out with hor bag or a pot of the treasurol" solemnly ex claimed Pete, emphasizing each word with a peculiar jerk of his lantern. "Whither does she go?" asked my friend. "Look out or you'll extinguish our lan tern!" I yelled, and so adjourned the old man's answer. That dnrkness! Shall I ever chase its shadows from my mind! Our feeble taper became but a revealer of the black gullet which we were penetrating. Hazy bars darted like spears into the gloom. From rocky shehe the masses of blackness see-iro-d t i k of and tumble as snow in "W. T. BISHOP HEADQUARTERS FOR Southwest Corner of First and Main Streets. Wichita. Kansas, alpine avaiancuea. one ustenea to near them crash upon the floor of some chamber deeper down. Then again the strangely beautiful darting f our lantern's rays, as you have seen tht noonday sunbeams dart down and branch in trembling movement into the heart of a turgid pond. We walked erect. We were frequently In chambers of considerable rize, as was easy to perceive by the touch of the hand on the rocky corridor, then nothing to touch, then the narrow passageway once more. In not one of these gigantic cham bers did the darkness yield to our light sufficient to show dimensions. It was in deed darkness eternal. Since the sun was created here was space where he had never shone. Yet the air was cool, and grew sweeter, even exhilarating, as we proceed ed. Proceeded! A thousand times had 1 resolved to return, but old Pete seemed deaf. No word of entreaty penetrated his ears. Even tho chink of silver dollars would not rouse him to any response. He plodded on, on. We thought of tho aged guide's feeble heart beat with its 91 years of throbbing. What if he were to drop and join the ghostly shades that mayhap haunted the place? We were about agreed on forcibly halt ing him when, in an eye's twinkle, the de cayed old man began to dance. As he sprung up and down and waved his hands a change came over him. Ho wore an aspect of a boy, and a light, soft, phos phorescent, beautiful, broke over him, over the lordly chamber where we stood. "See yonder!" We both spoke it. The wonderful glory shone from a per son. "Tho woman in the case!" exclaimed my friend. "Capt. Kidd's bride," I replied, and wo both laughed, though why wo laughed I do not know; surely I was never more deeply terrorized in my life. Probably it was not a very joyous laugh. As for our youthful-aged guide, he was now fairly on his knees before the apparition. It was the figure of a pleasing woman, English, I should say, though my friend says Dutch to this day. I think she spoke English; my friend says Dutch. I think she was dressed in the old English garb of two centuries ago. My friend, better vers ed in these things than I, says she wore tho picturesque costume of the Nether lands. But then her robe was so shining white that no eye could linger on it long. Behind the lady stood the precious pots of treasure trove. Spoils from the Spanish main and pelf from the Roman sea. Blood money! A pirate's wealth! To every glitter ing piece a dying sailor's hands had clung. The groans of deck loads of wounded men seemed still to lurk amid the mossy piles. The rude kettles ran over with the stuff. Handfuls lay on the floor about the prong like legs of each old cauldron. I said she spoke. If I understood her aright this is what she said: "Return! This wealth is in trust. Know ye the Van Houghtapootings, of great New York?" My friend managed to groan out that he was acquainted with this very old family in the persons of some of its latest repre sentatives. "This wealth is their suppty. Once each year, at Christmas, I take them a pot of this silver and gold. That's how they live, for they toil not, neither do they spin." I awoke. We were lying quietly mid stream, of Newburg bay, the yacht softly cradled in a midsummer's twilight. "That fish dinner!" I exclaimed to my friend. "It made me dream." "Exactly my case." he replied. On comparing our dreams they were sin gular' alike, in .'act quite identical. A dream, I confess. Nevertheless there is some such legend floating amid the purple shadows of the Highlands on the Hudson. Emily J. Haynes in Boston Globe. Clocks in Washington. Congress kills time by nearly a thousand :locks. At the hour of noon more than ten thousand strokes of tiny bells sound through the great building. On all ordi nary occasions 12 o'clock is the beginning or the end of the day at the Capitol. For the committees it is tho close of the day; in the halls of congress the morning hour begins just when tho last hour of tho morning has closed. When tho ball drops at meridian on the dc me of the observa tory, when tho whistl-s sound and the bells ring throughout the city, and the workmen everywhere cgin to rattle their dinner pails, the hands of tho electric clocks at the Capitol spring straight to tho hour of 12, picking up a moment of lost time or dropping a moment they have marked too soon. Then the speaker's gavel falls and it is the time for morning prayer. High noon is the hour of hours in this marble temple of law and disorder. All the Capitol clocks must mark that punctually if no other hour in the day, and all the bells must strike in unison. At noon congress has its birth and at noon it expires. It isonlyon extraordinary occasionswhen congress is hardly its natural self that it meets from daj to day at any other hour. All committees, unless they have, received some special dispensation, cease to have power to act as committees when the clock on the mantel strikes 12. Action taken after that has no binc.ug force. There fore the official clock, whose statement as to the hour cannot be disputed, is on the mantel in each of the hundreds of commit tee rooms. Washington Star. A Reminder of a Terrible Kvent. "Did you ever notice that the hands on nearly all the wooden clocks used as signs by jewelers point to the hour of S:17 o'clock?" asked a hoary headed jeweler of the town crier recently. "I have," was the reply, "and would like to know the reason for it." "Well, I will tell you. Abraham Lincoln was assassinated just seventeen minutes past o'clock. At the meeting of the Jewelers association, of New York, it was decitied to change the hands on all 'dummy' c'ocks usvd as signs so that they would p,int to this hour. This rule was adopted by all jewelers throughout the United States. Of late it has fallen somewhat into disuse, but a majority of the clocks still point to the ssjna hour." Seattle Ppsk. Queen Victoria's family circle now num bers fifty living descendants, including sons and daughters, grandsons and grand daughters, great-grandsons and great granddaughters. Besides these, she has four sons-in-law, four daughters-in-law, fire grandeons-in-law, and one granddaugh-ter-in-law. Heary DamajK. One of the heaviest verdicts ever recov ered was in the case of Lilly vs. the New York Central railroad. Lilly was at work fixing the brake of a car standing on the track. A locomotive ran down aud knocked him off the car so that both of his legs were run over. The injury was so great that the surgeons amputated both legs at once without attempting to chloroform the unfortunate man. The jury was only out five minutes, and returned a verdict for the full amount claimed, which was 533.G0O. This verdict was also affirmed by the court of appeals, in the case of Mur ray vs. the Brooklyn City railroad Thomas Pearsall recovered 41S,000 for the los of a man's If g. run over by a car.

Of Bras one whose name has been fa mous in the annals of history it was been recorded that "his great work was not be gun until tho clock of his age had struck fifty-eight." Of Lndovioo it has been written that not until he had reached the ripe pge of 115 years could he settle his mind te prepare for the world of letters the memoirs of his own limes.
