Let Wichita stand by "Wichita to a man. today, The available balance in the United SUites treasury, Oct. 31, was 503,857,301. Kansas stands nineteen in the test of forty-three states in late census. She btood twentieth ten years ago. If New Oi leans want to atone for her lottery sin she will proceed to crush out tlioso Italian cut throats ot the Mafia. Senator Stewart of Nevada, thinks the days of big initio bonanzas are over. How soon a man grows dubious after ho has made his pile. The diabolicnl trading and sellingJ which Iibs taken place lxjtween tho Alli ance and Democrats in order to beat Charley Luling are damnable. The Democrats who were elected to office in Sedgwick county by Resubmis sion Republicans arc laying themselves out to beat the ticket nominated by the Resubmission Republicans. Some of the Democratic office holders of Sedgwick county who were elected to their fat places only by the aid ot Repub lican votes are putting in their time and money to beat the Republican nominees. Two of the daughters of William Wal ter Phelps, our niinibter to Berlin, are engaged to officers of the German army. That bettles it. There will bo no tariff retaliation on the United States with all this influence at court. The evidence is all in, the argument has beon made and the case given to tho jury. The verdict will be made up at 0 o'clock this evening. Who can guess what it will be? As to this county and congressional district there ought to bo no question. Balfour has offered to build a bridge in Ireland and pay for it out of his own pocket, in order to help the suffering peo plf We quito agree with tho New York Star that he could help Ireland much more easily if he would only imi tate the example of Judas. For pure enterpribo commend us to the Canadian who has offered to bo hang ed jn place of Bit cha II for $1,000. Wo Himginu that the condemned murderer Mould bo xer) glml indeed to close the bargain without delay if the decision icsted ith him. But the law does rot look favorably upon any such scheme of icarious punishment, and Birchall is pretty sure to swing for his crime. Jay Gould is quoted with the remark that if the new tariff law increases the price of clothing tho poor man can do with one suit les, if it doesn't suit him to buy it. The Atlanta Constitution amends the suggestion and declares that upon the same idea, as to blankets, the people can lie closer together and sleep spoon-fashion. How very thankful the people should fed for theo timely sug gestions. Merchants, manufacturers, contractors and cotton carriers have all been heavy borrowers of money at St. LouK Tho cotton iroin the southwest is reaching there, and cotton factors have mado heavy calls on St. Louis banks, and they w ill continue to bo heavy borrowers for several weeks yet. It ia estimated by some St. Louis bankers that more money will bo used this winter to carry cattle through the season than has Iwen used for several years. Mr. Kicking Horse and Mr. Sitting Bull are again amusing themselves with threats to wipe ho poor white trash from the face of the earth. Mr. K. Horse has introduced a sort of religious side show into his performances. He claims i that ho visited heaven recently and re ceived proper credentials for the job of extermination. Will Brother Blair, of New Hampshire, le kind onough to plant a few of his Christian tracts on tho Sioux reservation? Though this is said not to bo a great year for corn in tho United States, the crop is estimated to exceed 2,000,000,000 bushels, enough to load 4.000.000 railway cars. These cars would require 182,832 locomotives to haul them, allowing thirty cars for each locomotive, and the train would require 38,867 miles of track to stand on, or in round numbers 2,$00 nulc3 more than tho circumference of the earth. Tho crop of Kansas alone would load a tram that would roach across tho continent and back to the centre. Henry Grady, the leading spirit of the new south, and whoso death was an irre parable loss to that section and its people, is quoted by the prohibition howlers as a disciple of that idiom. This is tho sort oLjwohibitiomst he was, quoting.his own language: 'I assume to keop no man's conscience; I assume to judgo no man." That is the same sort of prohibitionist grand old ex-Governor Robinson is, who says, on the subject: "I prohibit myself, not you." That is the character of pre cept and example that counts, and the only kind that is worth a cont, lecause it is honest and sincere and utterly de void of cant and hypocrisy. TortheEaslc. THE ASCENSION. I struggled to reach the mountain top. I fell by the weary way; And others pressed on before and ruthlessly tram pled o'er mo To w elcome the ne w-corn day. The night was black with horrors. The awful battle of life; Oh, would that my feet had pressed the coal of the mountain crest And ended the wearisome strife! There the llcht of day was breaking In the dauntless eastern sl y, But I never was blest with a view of its glorified, roseate hue; I sank by the wayside to die. To die! and th day was dawning Oh. the brink of that mountain erect! But I lay on its lagged, thorny side, and with closed eyes weekly cried, "I am tired, dear Lord, let me rest." Viola Ethel La whence. SIMPSON'S NOTORIOUS INFIDELITY The pastor of the Presbyterian church of 3Iedicino Lodge, Rev. J. B. North, who had been reported as denying the charges of infidelity made against Jere Simpson by Rev. Sanderson, has been f heard from. Ho writes a letter under j date of October 31, to Rev. Sanderson, in which he confesses, not only all that was I uuarguu against oimpsun, uuc winas up in the following emphatic language: "It will be a burning shame to this great district sends Simpson to congress. It would look as though a maiontv of tho people had gone mad. I pray that the Got! of nations may save us from such a fate." THE TWENTY-EIGHT LARGEST.

From an advance copy of Census Bul letin No. 12, issued from tho census bureau and just received, the following data is obtained as the relative positions of states in point of population: New York still heads the list, with Pennsyl vania second. Illinois and Ohio change places, being third and fourth respec tively, Missouri coming fifth and Massa chusetts sixth. Texas rises from eleven so seven; Kentucky drops from eight to eleven; Minnesota rises from twenty-six to twenty; Nebraska rises from thirty to twenty-six, its increase being from 4.V2, 402 to 1,050,798; Maryland drops from t wenty-three to twenty-seven; Colorado rises from thirty-five to thirty-one; Ver mont drop? from thirty-two to thirty-six; Washingtou rises from forty-two to thiity-four; Delaware drops from thirty eight to forty-two; Nevada drops from forty-three to forty-nine; and Arizona drops from forty-four to forty-eight. Oklahoma is forty-six, leading Wyom ing, Arizona and Nevada, the latter state bringing up the rc.tr of tho procession. Reports from Australia are discourag ing to those who are hoping for amicable settlement of difficulties between labor ing men and their employers. Tho struggle between tho d..c.K rn and the owners has, it is said, assumed tho seri ousness of a civil war in its results, even if not in its methods. This is not only deplorable in itself, but is startliugly suggestive of the magnitude and tho gravity that the contest between labor and capital is assuming. It will be a grave disaster to humauity if this civil war, evtn though it may be only com meicial ill character, can not be averted by some readjustmentof economic condi tions and methods that shall serve tho best mtere&ts of all concerned. The dis turbances in Australia, coupled with those in England and the discontent elsewhere, indicate the persistence of a question that must bo met very soon. Hon. Horace Speed, U. S. district at torney for Oklahoma, who has perhaps fullest knowledge of the condition of affairs in all pa its of tho Indian terri tory, asserts with positiveness that there is more crime committed in the territory continguous to Oklahoma but outside of its boundaries than in any other in habited portion of the continent, of equal population. Tills fact of itself is the strongest argument that could be ad vanced for the speedy opening of all that country to white settlement. Okla homa proper is as peaceful and law abiding as any portion of the country, the result of its settlement and organiza tion of local governmet. The New York Herald's correspondent at Washingtou has been figuring on the next congress, and he makes it Demo cratic by eighteen majority. The con gressional campaign committees at the national capital have also been figuring on the result of today's election. The Democratic committee claim a majority for that party, in the next house, of thirty, while the Republicans claim a clean majority of seven. This is all mere guess work. Wait 'til about Thursday morning ai;d we will tell you just how it will stand. Our dear friends, the ladies, h ave liberties today that they never stop to think of their remote predecessrs. Her bert Spencer has opened their eyes. He says that "wives in England were bought from the fifth to the eleventh century, and as late as the seventeenth century. Husbands of decent station were not ashamed to beat their wives. Gentlemen arranged jwrties of pleasure for the purpos of seeing wretched women whipped at Bridewell. It was not untilv18l7 that the public whipping of women was abolished in England." Several weeks ago an item appeared in the dispatches statins that Mavor o i Seluffbauer, of Arkansas City, had been arresiea lorsome aitegea onense. un his demand the case was heard at once j and he was acquitted of the charges pre- ferml against him. No mention of this has appeared in the dispatches and our I attention being called to it wc deem it just toIr. S. that the same publicity be Kieu ivuwnBuiioi ins inai ob was j reach our table. Deiiworats and Kepub given to the first statement. licans alike concede this fact. A noteworthy fact, and one worthy of the attention of the voters, is that all the combinations and trading: that have been going on are intended to compass the de feat if possible of the Republican county ticket. Resort is had to every scheme and device that the ingenuity of the po litical trickster and wire puller can in vent to defeat the Republ cans. Is there any principle in all this? ICot a bit of it; it is simply the offices, the loaves and fishes they want. TO THE CITIZENS. Citizens of Wichita, and Sedgwick county, stand by the man who has stood solid for you. Don't forget that fifteen years ago when Wichita was about to lose the cattle trade by votes from the eastern portion of the stato that Col. Hallowell came to our assistance and saved us many thousand dollars. In stead of calling us "cayotes and sorghum lapDers,' as other eastern fellaws did, Hal rendered us valuable assistance. Don't forget that when Wichita wanted tho stato convention he again came to the front and we got that con tion. Don't forget that when our county officials settled up with the colonel as attorney general they owed him about $8,000, which he refused to take, but gave them a receipt in full against tho debt. In fact Hai has stood by our city at least fifteen years. And now I am satisfied you will stand by him. Jxo. Kelly. KANSAS SUGAR PROSPECTS. From the Louisiana Planter, The Planter had the good fortune to receive cal's this week from Jacob Neu port, of Kilby Manufacturing company; Fred Hinze, just from Topeka, and M. B. Clements, from Sterling, Kan. These gentlemen report everything in excellent condition iu Kansas, all tho houses are making sugar successfully and the outlook is very promising. Mr. Hinze, who is one of the engineers of the Kilby Manufacturing company of Cleveland, O., has just left the Topeka factory, which he has put in perfect order, and reports an output there al ready of 100 barrels of sorghum sugar. Medicine Lodge factory is away ahead, with an output of over oOO barrels, and promises to do better than last vear. Its owners, Messrs. Eldred Hinman, can well feel proud of this factory, for its financial success is assured. The Topeka factory made sixty pounds of sugar to a ton of cane on its first run. Medicine Lodge's first run was eighty nine pounds to the ton, and is now said to aqerago a hundred. At Fort Scott they have started, are making sugar and doing well. Attica has also started, but has as yet furnished no reports. One of the main essentials, in Mr. Hinze's estimation, is to have men in tho sugar house who know their busi ness He left with us a sample of sugar made this year from sorghum at the Attica factory. 3Ir. Jacob Neuert is now here to super intend the erection of the new diffusion battery that tho Kirby Manufacturing company is this year putting up on Gov ernor AVarmoth's Magnolia plantation. aeouVraiiroadties. The Washington correspondent of the Globe-Democr.it furnishes that paper the following interesting data in regard to the very important subject of rail road ties; one tliat has engrossed the at tention of economists for some time in view of the enormous drain upon the forests of the country to supply tho great and growing demand for this nec cessary class of timber. He says: Metal ties are used on 30,000 miles of railroad track. This is something the department of agriculture has recently ascertained. It is one of the discoveries resulting from an investigation made by the forestry division. Another discovery is that tho railroads of the United States are now requiring about $S0,000, 000, new wooden ties every year. One fifth of the timber product of this country is regularly absorbed by the railroads. And the railroads' fifth is the best that is produced. A milloii acres of good forest is stripped 'to supply this singL' demand. This government has only about 70,000,000 acres of public forest land remaining. It is a plain proposition that the time has come for a forestry policy. It Is also very clear that the question of substitut ing'metal for wood in railroad ties is rap idly developing interest. In pursuing inquiries the forestry div ision has learned that metal ties are now in satisfactory uee on 30,000 miles of railroad. Europe has one-third of this metal-tie mileage. Asia, Africa and South America have tho remainder. There are only two miles of track on metal ties in tho United States. But m the countries where the sultitute for wood has been tried it is pronounced sat isfactory. On but one road where metal ties in considerable numbers were nut down have they been taken up. That was a division in Prussia, where the road-bed w,s at fault rather than the metal ties. On all other roads where trial has be en made, the uso of metal ties is increasing. The fair conclusion is tluit tho substitution of metal for wood has passed the exjerimeutal stage. The railroad managers of the United States are Iwginuig to turn their atten tion to metal ties. The first experiments upon an extended scale will be on the plains. If those experiments are suc cessful, the general introduction will follow. The United States lias gone by the era of racing in construction. Terri tory has been occupied. Questions of comparative economy are beginning to impress themselves uxn railroad man agement. Just as soon as it as demon strated that metal ties are cheaper in the long run. the wooden ties will begin to go. A letter to the chief of the Forestry division, from Mr. C. P. Huntington, of the Southern Pacific, shows the growing sentiment. Mr. Huntington writes: "I have for several years advocated the use of metal ties along the timberless recions of our lines, and. while none of I them have as vet been put in use, I "S practiced and determmea to ngnt Tnm Ue Emplrta ItepabUoitt I think they will be given a trial I the Jrngs of suffering humanity, and r.

A a considerable patience are necessarv to direct the minds of men into fields of in vestigation differing from those in which they have been educated, and in the practice of which they liave spent a largo part of their lives." To this fact I attribute much of the apathy manifested in giving metallic ties a trial; but now, as their merits and those of the various designs in use are being discussed by American writers and engineers, there will be a quickening of opinion about them, which is likely to make them in the next few years a factor of some im portance in the discussion of railroad economies." The forcstrv expert argues that even if ia ue oati tie at ou cents iuai eigui j years, a tecl tie which will last thirty- a w hite oak. tie at 50 cents lasts eicht live years will be cheaper, even though the cost is $1.'0. rrz Excellence Appreciated, r 't0' lcm"x- rt. Wichita Eaos Oklahoma de- My ne,TOpaper nns j,at SUNFLOWER: SHIMMER. Anticipating our exchanges: ""We did it.' Jerry Simpson will not go to congress any more than ho did to war. The last gun of the campaign was fired last night and most of the sons-of-guns go tonight. It will be noticed that none of the horses on the political race track ever fail from a loss of wind. A Peoples party man calls Willits the "Abraham Lincoln, of Kansas." That ought to beat him. Tom Ryan has probably written, his let ters of congratulation and is waiting for the proper addresses. Senator Ingalls carried a trucefnl white rose in his hand at Emporia, but his tongue was as fiery as ever. If advertising is all that it is boasted to be, this campaign has made the Willits family one of the Kansas iOO." If the new tariff bill is culpable for the quality of cigars circulating about today, Mr. McKinley is a great niaytr. The Republican state central committee probably never counted on the assistance of the Leavenwprth Catholic fair. Tho most extreme anti-Ingalls papers havo never mentioned Luther Cballis as an opposition candidate against Ingalls. The calamity orators when they go back to their old haunts tomorrow will find most of tho dry goods boxes undisturbed. After all Mrs. Lease's fuming and fret ting she will not cast her vote for the Peoples' Party. But that isn't her fault. After all the rumpus some men have been kickiug up, it seems as though they ought to oa entitled to cast more than one vote Cherokee county, Kansas, and Jasper and Newton counties, Missouri, produce half the lead and zinc ore used in the United States. There are very few men in Kansas that would be at all nervous if they knew a "Martin Cbuzzlewit" was among them to day, taking notes. Benjamin Clover says: "The issue this year is not whether a man shall be per mitted to drink, but whether he shall have a home to go to, drunk or sober." A Clay Center relic fiend, while Ingalls was making a speech there, stole the sena tors famous slouch hat. Amau that has that opinion of Ingalls will vote for him. One hundred and twenty-live members of the house will bo elected today. Only forty-four of ttiese have to be Republicans to insure the election of Senator Ingalls. "There are some men to whom titles aro superfluities," was the way Mr. Jay intro duced "John J." Ingalls at Emporia, at Emporia, at the same time looking haid at "Governor" Eskridge. In the hum-drum of political din, it is pleasurable to occasionally run across an item to the effect that "Mr. Smith's thresh ing machine pulled in yesterday, after a long and successful run." Senator Ingalls: The first vote that I case in my life was for John C. Fremont for president, and with a single exception, the time when the territory of Kansas did not permit us to vote for president, I have voted for Republican presidents and I ex pect to as long as I live. I am not here fellow citizens, as a resubmission Republican, nor a prohibition Republican, nor au anti- original package Republican, but as an old-fashioned Abraham Lincoln. Benjumin Harrison, 82,00!) majority Republican, world without end Republican. Senator Ingalls had this to say about himelf at Topeka. "I feel, before I take my leave of you, fellow citizens, th it per haps I ought to make a few personal ob servations. My relations to this campaign are not peculiar and not wholly voluntary. I have been brought into it by the opera tion of tho forces now wholly within my own control. The accusations against mo have been such that perhaps it is due to those who have so long honored mo with their confidence that I make a word of reply. If a man becomes suddenly wealthy in the public service without visible means for the transaction of business I admit that it is the just object of criticism. I desire to observe in response to the accusa tions that have been made against me in that connection, that the greater part of my belongings. I owned when I entered the senate, having acquired them by fif teen years practice at the bar, and if 1 were to be suddenly removed from the sphere of this life, my estate would not suffice to en able my family to remain comfortably to gether, during the dependent period of my children." A Fool's Lament. To the Editor of Tno Kcpubllcan. This seems to be the proper time to put on record a confession which ought to be made before the dissolution which I see coming. There is no longer any use in keeping up the pretense. Those of us who are conspicuously committed and pledged to one another to stand by the People's ticket will possibly have to carry out what we have undertaken. But wo are whipped: our forces aro scattering; our cause is dead. I write this as a sort of dying confession of a misguided crowd, hoping that it may warn otheis who may be tempted in the future to take the same journey. By going out on this fool's errand, this wild goose chase, wo lost our places in the old party, and simply count for nothing tins year. If in some instances ti kets have been made up without farmers in nomination, it is because tho farmers were not where they belonged, nominating their own men, and exerting a controlling influence on the party. AVe have gone out and fooled away tho op portunities of the year. The -t. Louis platform, which we started out with, lias been expanded into a very different political creed from what we supposed it. Short, and meager, and vague, and general as it is, it seemed to promise good things in some directions, I but many of the honest yeomen of Kan- Bas are alarmed at the meanings which Iiave been expounded from that com-. paratively innocent looking instrument, Our candidate is the complexion of our shame.

'A Kansas Fool, j A NEW GAME OF CARDS. From the CMcaco Htrali. '"Waleedi" is the name of a new game of cards tliat has caused a flutter in ts .i r.. .l. u-, rl lowed its introduction into the charmed circle it would seem that whist is to be i pushed into the background to give place to the new game- The fair votaries of fushion, usually prone to shun card play-! ing. lia e vielded to its fascination and 'Waleedi" lias received a boom that will I tend to make it one of the most popular i nf rani pnm. A t rncpnt noker. euchr I and whist have lost grounu among me I r. ww mnn m furAr nf th nnr trame. In lte terms and the names of the points to ho made "Waleedi carries with it a Bret Harte suggestion. Remtnisceno&i of j mining camp, wild romantic scenery ana j of the rush for wealth during the gold fever flit through the mind, as- 'vein," "pocket" and "chimney" are called during the game, Waleedi itself is the name of a mine ia silvery Colorado. A peculiar dispute in connection with this mine led tor its invention. The mine was owned by two men, one of whom wanted to work ore wherever it "was rich enough to pay and the other to de velop a "chimney" he was confident would be found, iu tho ledge, some con siderable distance on. A compromise was effected by an agreement by which they were to share expenses equally and to divide receipts from the ore taken from the tunnel. The former was to hava the privilege to work all veins at his own expense and to have all receipts from them, but in case a "chimney" was struck he was to grant his partner the Srivilege to work it and enjoy the profits. ly playing the game- it can easily be seen which man made Ids fortune first. Tho game is plaved similar to whist. There aro four players, those op posite being partners. The entire deck is dealt, one. card at a time, and the last iard turned up for trump. Tho ace ij the highest card of a suit and every player is compelled to follow suit if he can. Tho terms used are as follows: A game is called a "fortune," a count is a "strike," a "large strike," a "small strike," or "struck twelve." In counting up one says "struck forty-eight in veins," "struck fifty in a po ket.1 etc. The six, knave, queen, king and ace-are called "waste cards;" the two, three, four and five, "vein cards," and the seven, eight, nine and ten, "pocket cards." Four pocket cards of one suit is called a "pocket." A pocket of trumps is a "rich pocket." Two pockets axe called a "chimney." When all the tricks are played the strike is made as follows: The "waste cards" do not count; each "vein card" "strikes" as much a3 its spots number, the four striking four, e'e: a "pocket" strikes fifty; a "rich Docket" strikes seventy-five; a "chimney," a for tnne, which is 800. In the rapid changes, victories and defeats, "Waleedi" is a most exciting game. OKLAHOMA OUTLINES. Today is Jud e Harvey "Fourth of July." The Guthrie News calls him Cow Counter McCoy. Every public spirited man iu Oklahoma ought to vote today. Dr. Davis, the bright young man on the News, has lefc Guthrie. Somebody has discovered that Crocker is in the race for congress.

Crescent City claims to havo the finest scenery in Oklahoma, and you don't have to pay anything for a look. Last Monday the town of Tohee had a great blow-out at which everybody was ex pected to blow somethlug in. When Frank Greer speaks of Oklahoma, his imagination lops off a little off Texas, a little off Mtxico and soforth. It is strange we don't have more from the poets of Oklahoma when tho wheat fields are looking so beautiful. A man just returned from Oklahoma who overlooked the legislature, says "peace and contentment reigns." The Kingfisher fellows have been doing a great amount of whispering the past three days. It will come out tomorrow. Some rhyme: Tomorrow's Monday And Tuesday Harvey. If the campaiiu kept up much longer the Democratic papers ot UKlulioma would havo to lay in a new stock of capital "M's."

One criminal perpetrates a murder under circumstances 'which ama.e tho peoplo quite as much as they shock them, because the motive seems inadequate; other men of criminal tendencies ore infected by the example and imitate the crime. For the lost two or three years the sensational feature has been the killing of women by discarded lovers, jealous or dis satisfied h u s b ands, brutal par entsandthe like; and of XAXGDOX. all such murders none recent ly reportcdwas.Lii.'oDo.v seems more cruel and senseless, more pitiful and heartbreaking to thbafflictedthan there cent shooting of Mrs. W. M. Langdon by John "W. Grand Mound, la. Mrs. Langdon was Miss Ella Smith, daughter of Mr. George Smith, a well-to-do contractor of MadiBon, Wis. W. M. Langdon is the son of a wealthy man and himself well educated and well fitted for euccess in life. John W. Bevan was of English birth and apparently an active, business like young man, with every pros pect of success. lie met. Miss Smith and nil tho current of his life was changed. To Bay that he was "madly infatuated'.' would be but a mild statement. Tho strangest fact is that in spite of her persistent re fusals he still believed thut sho loved him, and would marry him if the opposition of her relatives and friends could be over come. "While employed as bookkeeper by A. F. Bullen Co., maltsters, of Chicago, ho learned that Miss Ella had married his friend Langdon; then his whole nature seemed to bo given over to bitterness and thoughts of revenge. He pursued the young couple with insane persistency till they learned to dread him. Ho followed them to Grand Mound, la., and lagged the hus band for at least a final interview. Then ensued a scono which the average man can with difficulty understand. The husband consented that hLs wife should meet the infatuated Bevan in tho front yard, but while they talked the hus band t.at at an upper window with a rifle in hand and a "bo;wl" drawn on the mad lover ready, ho says, "to pull trigger if Bevan had made a motion toward his pistol pocket." The interview closed, apparently without danger, Langdon came down stairs and approached the pair just as tho lady said: "Mr. Bevan, you are no man." "It is time to end this," said the hus band. "Well, good-by," said Bevan, turning half around. Suddenly ho whirled around and, with revolver in hand, opened fire. Two shots pierced the brain of Mrs. Lang don. and she fell dead. On the instant the husband fired. Bevan staggered, fired at Langdon, missed and fell. Langdon fired four more bullets into his prostrate body, and the dreadful tragedy was at an end. I All Madison mourns the death of tho i young and beautiful Ella Smith Langdon. Tho heartbroken husband has the sympa thy of all who know him. Except in their rash indulgence to their former friend Bo van no one blames them. It is simply a tragedy which human wisdom could not foresee tho result of an insane infatua tion. A DEADLY STREET ENCOUNTER. JDoath of a City Oflicinl at the Hands of a Newspaper Man. I A reporter has killed his assailant. Tha I scene was in Newport, Ky., the jour- nalist is Thomas Riley, of Tho Covington Commonwealth, and the man he killed was Charles Juugormau, city engineer of Covington. And after reading the ending one can only wonder why Mr. Jungerman assaulted tho reporter; for there is nothing in the articles written by the latter to make any cool or clear headed man fight ing mad, and tho last article, the one which provoked the assault, certainly is as inno cent (one might almost say feeble) a thing as ever dribbled from an indifferent pen. It simply charges that a certain public echool building had been erected in a re verse position to that intended by tho board "hind side to tho st recti" thut the city engineer laid out the ground and ought to have seen it, and that engineer and officials wero all to blame. Surely no man over ran for congress or legislature west of the Alleghanies without suffering much moro than that; but Mr. Jungerman's friends say Mr. Riley had followed the former up with many sly hits for some timo. At any rate they met nt the eastern en trance of tho City hall. Mr. Jungerman RILET JCXGERMAJC. Struck the reporter a fearful blow with a heavy cane, cutting a deep gash in his head, and then ran out and partly behind an adjacent pillar. Mr. Riley followed, pistol in hand; Mr. Juugerman started to ward him; he fired, they clinched, and two more shot wero fired as they strugged to gether. Mr. Jungerman fell, and died in a tninutc or two, one ball having passed through his neck and another through his breast. Mr. Riley is iu custody, charged tvith willful murder. Another DUreputable Book in Sight. The story comes, from abroad that a book Is about to be published simultaneously in Milau, Berlin, Pans, London and New York, in tho Italian, Gorman, French and English languages, the title of which will be "The Fall of a Star." It is an alleged biographical account and history of Ad eline Patti, and is said to have been writ tea by the son of a well known impresario, with the assistance of a number of opera managers and artists. It is full of sensa tional tales of the celebrated diva. The ttory of how NIcolini cut out Da Caux and finally married Patti is given in full.

Their Career in Utah Is Ended at Last. THE DECIDING "REVrLATION." Forty-seven Your of Actual Polygamy end Thirty-eight Ycara of Acknowledged "Plurality" Kmled by u Decreo of the Mormon Hierarchy. (Copyright by American Pn5s Association. "Dost think because thou art virtuous there will be no more cakes and ale?" was the emphatic question put by one of Shakespeare's characters. Tho inferenco JOSEPH SMITI. was, No! For thirty-eight years, to wit, since the autumn conference of 1S52, the "Church of Jesus Christ of Litter Day Saints," as the Mormons call themselves, have been taunting the United States in tho same way. They ha e nil the time insisted that no monogamic people could be vir tuous; that in "celestial marriage" only could humanity do its prettiest. They havo yielded at hist. Swearing they would ne'er submit they submitted, and at the lost semi-annual conference of the church, held in Salt Lake City in early October, the Tabernacle full of saints, 10,000 or more, unanimously voted to aban don polygamy, and "hereafter to obey in spirit and in letter tho latvs of the United States." It was a bitter pill, ond to their credit be it said they did not attempt to disguise that fuct. "It goes against tho grain," said Goorge Q. Cannon, one of tho leaders, "but 1 bow in submission to tho will of God. Wo cannot fight sixty mill ions of people," wherein this Cannon was very right, and the head of the same was well located. It must bo said that the Mormons have taken their own time in obeying the law. They first proclaimed polygamy as a part of their faith and practice in September, 1852. Tho United Suites judges in Utah condemned this action, and tho Mormons 'S'f'C ppu: xa BRIGHAM VOUXG. ran them out of the territory. Col. Step- toe was sent there in 1S34 by President Pierce, and was "tricked," as the phrase went. The next set of judges and otficinls were run out, and in IS)" the "Mormon war" began. In lb. President Buchanan amnestied the Saints, and matters were allowed to drift till lSOJ, when congress passed the first law against polygamy. Tho Mormons tried the old trick of scaring away tho officials, but Governor Stephen Harding and Judges Waite and Drake de clined to run. Tho jury system was then used by the Saints to defeat the law Congress iu 1874 passed an act to secure non-Mormon juries, but the Saints beat it. They had had forty years' experience in defeating the law, and hence could steer around the most ob structive constitutional provisions and picico the center of the most explicit statute. The federal courts were complete ly defeated as to polygamy, but they got after the Saints for the Mountain Meadow massacre and other bloody crimes of tho old era of fanaticism to wit, from 1S54 to ISCfi. They captured, convicted and shot John D. Lee; scared a hundred other mur derers out of the territory; forced a confes sion from Bill Hickman, chief of the "De stroying Angels," and worried Brigham Youug to death. Still tho Saints clung to polygamy, declaring that God had com manded it and they would live up to it, M WILFORD WOODRUFF, "though every prison in the land be filled with the brethren, and hell should yawn beneath the tabernacle." Finally Senator Edmunds brought in his truly drastic bill taking the whole gov ernment of Utah out of tho bands of the Mormons, and giving courLs, juries and everything else to Gentiles. Then the last long fiiht began. The Mormons stood up to it like heroes. Bad they may be, but they are "gritty rascals." Court after court sent them to tho penitentiary, first singly and then by dozens, and still they stood out and protested nl uffered. President John Taylor, whe ad succeeded Brigham, had to fly from heme and died an ula. Apostle Wilford Woodruff succeeded him and advised the brcthien to temporize. A case was carried to tho supreme court of the United States and decided against th Saints, and this gave him hb opportunity. In one of the "revelations" of Joseph Smith he found this passage; "Now, brethren, as touching the ordi nances, whercia is manifested the forbear ance of God the Father, thus saith the Ixtrd: If so be that 1 command my people and your enemies oorao upon you that you be not able to do that which 1 commanded, then I the Lord will hold you guiltless. Nevertheless I the Lord will require it at Bevan, at 'wIsi'rFi -i-s NT Wk M ?v V.-T3- 'i'tr I the hauasof jour euwuics. That was his warrant. It had excused the saints from completing the temple at Nauvooand from obeying the command to settle in Jackson county, Mo. It now excused them from obeying tha revelation ordaining "celestial marriage." "The brethren have suffered enough," said Brer Woodruff, "eight hundred of them have languished iu prison and exile, we must now obey the lutv of the land. I have lately talked behind the veil with Joseph Smith and Brother Brigham, and they, with all the heavenly host, say that the United State government must now bear the guilt. When God shall come out of his hiding place and vex the nations in his fury, then will the United States beg us to intercede for them and to live our religion. Until then give place to wrath; and God's will be done." George Q. Cannon, next In rank to Pres ident Woodruff, added his own revelation that this was the will of God. "Brother Woodruff has lately bsen in executive ses sion with the Almighty. The sufferings of the Saints are recorded in heaven, aud will appear as the brightest pags in earthly his tory. 1 lived iu polygamy hesnaso such was the will of God. I now give- it up for thesamo reason." And so end-, a. social practice which for forty-seven years has been the one groat anomaly among the re ligions ?ccts of America. July 12, l&i'J, according to Joseph Smith, the voice of the Lord commanded him to write that famous revelation beginning: "Verily thus saith the Loid unto you my servant Joseph, that inasmuch as you havo inquired nt my hand to know wherein I the Lord justified ray servants Abra ham, Lsaac and Jacob, as also Mo.ses and David and Solomon my Fervants, as touch ing the principle and practice of their hav ing many wives and concubines, behold and lo, I am the Lord and will answer thee as touching this matter." And when ho got orders to spread the doctrine ho was, he adds, so horrified that he mounted his horse and fled; but when he got on the hill east of Nauvoo a mighty angel stood in the way with a drawn sword and menaced his life. So he went back and was "scaled" to Olivo Frost and Eliza Snow and the Widow Fuller and nobody knows how many more; but when he bought Nancy Rigdou and Martha Brother ton thoy "gavo tho whole snap dead away," and there was n row in the church. It was smoothed over, the Apostles were first converted, and Brirjbam Young took three extra wives as a starter. Then Joseph Smith tried to capture tho wife of William Law, and thero was another row; Smith was lodged in a Gentile jail, and there was murdered by a mob with his brother Hy rum on the 27th of June, ISM. The Mormons then put forth a circular denying tho existence of polygamy among them, and continued to repeat this denial for nine years after the revelation. All this time they were extending the prac tice. But when their envoys hud convinced President Fillmore that there was no polygamy in Utah, and he had appointed Brigham Young governor, they came out with the truth in S'-pterabcr, 1S52. So polygamy among the Mormons has passed through four stages secret practice but open denial for nine years, open avowal and rapid progress from 1852 to about 1SGS, gradual decline from natural causes till 1882, and thereafter rapid extinction by force of the Federal government, to final abandonment in October, 1890.

His own sister, .Mrs Mary E. Quigley, gave the decisive testimony, and the story was so affecting that her words only can present its full force. After relating how the three went to the fall3. took dinner and walked outto the cliff she said: "My feet troubled me and I sat down to rest, hut Mrs. Day was anxious to see the rapids and went on. Soma twenty-five minutes afterward I looked down the river and they (Diy and his wife) wero standing close to the precipice, my brother standing behind his wife. When I looked again my brother was standing alone and waving a black h-nd tcrchicf. I walked up to him. When I reached my brother he said, bursting iuto tear: 'If I must, I must. I pushed her over. She never moved, never knew what struck her.' I reached my mother's aboat 9 o'clock. I went out of tho depot at Rochester by the large doors, as he hf-d told me at Buffalo not to go out the samo way wo went in. I next saw my brother the day after on the street, when he said, 'If I had not done it I would not do it.' I had his little girl with me and she asked him if 'mamma was home,' and he said he guessed not." Six years ago Day married Desire Chat terton, only daughter of Daniel Chatter ton, of Saratoga. Their life was singular ly Etormy, and his people gunerally ac cused his wife of infidelity. On the 12th of last July Day married Mary E. Breen, of Canandaigua, he passing there under the name of Arthur Hoyt. She soon after informed the police that her husband had In a nightmare acted in such a way as to indicate that he was guilty of murder, and that she had learned of his having another wife when he married her. Tho corpse was found below the cliff. Ho was arrested and the proof was positive. Tne murderer, who is to be hanged Dec. 25, is but 5 yeara of age, and is rather attractive in person, but belongs to a "hard family."

'tfTiat the Ased Dlvino Has Done for the Dioceso of Brooklyn. Right Rev. John Loughlin, bishop of Brooklyn, has been a priest for fifty yc?-r3 He was ordained at the old St Pat rick's cathedral on Mott street, in New York city, Oct. IS, 1840, Arch bishop Hughes, now dead, being the officiating prelate. He was consccrat ed bishop of Brook lyn Oct. 30, 1S53. At the time of his accession the dio cese contained twenty churches BISHOP locgjilix. and two orphan asylums. Today it has about 120 churches, 43 chapels and stations, a theological semi nary, two collages, twenty academies andse Ipct schools, fifty free parish schools, sixteen asylums and four hospitals. Besides these, during Bishop Loughlin's administration fourteen new brotherhoods and sisterhoods have been established. Tho bishop is a native of Ireland and was born in 1815. His jubilee naturally brings him mnny congratulations and good wishes from church dignitaries, as well as from resi dents in the diocese who have witnessed the marvelous growth of numerous impor tant enterprises under his fostering care. HE LOVED A SOLDIER'S LIFE. Career of tho 2Ian tVho Led the Famom Durjeo Zouaves. Gen. Abram Durj-ee, who died not long ago in New York city, was a soldier from his youth up. He came of Iluguenot stock. His grandfather served in the Revolution ary army, and his father and uncles were American officers during tho war of 1813. With these family precedents it is not strange that Abram Duryee shouldered a musket as soou as the law allowed. In 1S33, when 18 years of age, he joined the One Hundred and Forty-second regiment of New York'ftate volunteers. Five years later he went to the Twenty-seventh regi ment, now the Seventh. Jan. 20, 1840, ho became colonel, and in the spring of that year was called on to suppress the Astor place riots in New York city, which had their origin with the quarrel between the actors Forrest and Macready. In 1S57 he and his men again faced riot ers tne "Ueau Rabbit" gang and drove them from the streets. July 4, 1S39, Dur yee resigned the colonelcy of the Seventh, but ho did not remain long in repose. When the war came he raised in less than a week the Fifth New- York volunteers, GEN' ABRAJI DRTEE. known as Duryee's zouaves, and gavethpm their "baptism of fire" at Big Bethel. After being promoted to the rank of brig adier general he participated in the bat tles of Cedar Mountain, Thoroughfare Gap, second Bull Run, Chantilly, South Mountain and Antietam. While on leave of absence his brigade was given to another general, and because of this Duryee resigned in January, 1603. Howover, he received the brevet of n major-general at the close of tho war. In 1S72 he was appointed a police commis sioner for Iscw York city, a position ha held with credit for many years. In 1881 he had a stroke of paralysis, and from that time on to the day of his death re mained an invalid. It is said of Gen. Dur- yee that during the war he never ordered any one to go where he feared to lead. As a result he received half a dozen terrible wounds, some of which failed to heal. Ho was given a pension of $100 per month. i A French Novelist's Financiering. The assertion that literary men know little about financial alTairs hardly holds pood in the case of Balzac, the famous French novelist. He was approached in the interest of a forthcoming book b' M. Curmcr. Balzac agreed to aid the project on condition that the work should include a study of himself and his work, to be written by Theophile Gautier. Curmer agreed. Balzac rushed to the Rue de Xa varia, where Gautier was then living, and offered him the commission, which was ac cepted with joy. "The price," said Balzac, "will be 500 francs." Theophile soou wrote the article and took it himself to the publisher, but was too modest to ask for payment. A week passed, a fortnight passed, and ho heard nothing more of the article or of Balzac. One day Balzac came to see him, end said, "I do not know how to thank you. Your article is a masterpiece. As I thought ready money might not come amiss to you, I have brought the amount agreed on with me." So saying he put down 2o0 francs. "But," said Gautier timidly, "I thought you said it was to be 500 francs. Of course it was my mistake." "Not at all," Balzac replied; "you aro perfectly right. It was to be 500 francs. But just think a moment. If I had never lived you could never have said all the fine things you have said of me. That is obvious. Without my existence thero would have been no article; vithout the article there would have been no money. Very well, I take half the money as the subject of the article. I give you half as its author. Is not this justice" "The justice of Solomon," answered Gautier, and, what is more, he always thought so. jue rastest rreignc tram In the south, perhaps in the United States, is run by the Louisville, Xew Orleans and Texas rail road between Memphis and New Orleans. The distari'e between the two points is 455 miles, and the run is made In thirty hours and forty-nine minutes. Large, powerful and fast locomotives are being built for $7,500 to ?S,000, and thirty ton well built bor cars for foOO each or less. In fact, new work is now furnished so cheaply that it hardly pays to rebuild an engine that has ran ten or a dozen years, or a car which is much oat of shape. The statement that the erasure of tha words "not negotiable" from the uniform bill of lading ha3 made is negotiable is an error. An interstate bill of lading is net I negotiable by law, and there is no word or set of words whose addition or omission will change the legal status of the paper.
