IItattstowk, McL, April 27. It mat ters not at what hour the Coxey people take up their daily march, they are astir early in. the day. Before 6 o'clock the canvas that was in the camp was taken down and a dozen men were busy rolling and stowing it away for the day's tramp. Broken rails were piled about kettles and coffee wa3 made. Along the stream that half circled the camp men were upon their knees washing their faces with the cold mountain water. There was a suggestion of the flitting of a cir cus after a performance. Coffee and hard tack constituted the breakfast for most of the men. Some got eggs, but there were not enough to go around. After breakfast the men strolled about and loitered on the village street or sat on the fences along the pike. Standing at the end of a slender bridge that spans the stream the Associated Press correspondent was spoken to by a young man who wore the army badge and who carried a canteen. "That canteen," he volunteered, "was given me by an old man up in Maryland. He said it was once carried in the battle fields of this state by a young soldier. I shall think a good deal of it." "How do your men turn out this morn ing?" was asked. "Pretty stiff mighty stiff. We had to sleep on the ground last night, and it was chilly I can tell you." "What "did you have for breakfast?" "Most of us had nothing but coffee anil hard-tack. I could not get any eggs onlv a few I don't feel like tramping todav." "VVhy?" "I feel too weak to walk. I did yes terday and since 'Te struck here 1 have had leas to eat than before. I feel weak, but I'll get through I think. I've come from the start." Coxey In a Hotel. Coxey, the chieftain, was quartered in a hotel room and came forth upon the scene about 8 o'clock. Carl Browne with his keen shifty eyes was attending to details announcing as he called on his chief that owing to the short march of today they would not start until about 9:30 o'clock. As Chief Coxey went down the hill from his hotel towards the camp, Carl Browne was getting his communes into line for the start. Coxey circulated among them. He stated that he was waiting for a local team he had hired to tome down and load a part of the can vas. After some delay the team drove upon the grounds and its owner came to Gen. Coxey to receive pay for the ser vice. "I ani not going along, Mr. Coxey, and I would like to get my pay now," he said. "All right, sir," was the response, and the leader pulled from his trousers' pock ets a handful of coin, none larger than a 50 cent piece. He began counting out from this Supply and soon came down to nickels and then to pennies. "There, there," exclaimed the owner of the team, "can't you give me some pa per money; I don't want all that metal." There was a tinge of impatience in this. "Well." said Coxey with deliberation and still counting out small coin, "I be lieve this is legal tender aint it?" "Oh, that's all right, if you haven't anything else," said the team owner: "Most of us are glad to get anything in the way of money," added Coxey, with a glint of fun through his spectacles and then when the team owner, had received 3, the price of hire, and had gone, Coxey remarked, as he returned what was lelt to his pocket: "We may all be better fixed moneywise before long." All was ready for the march, the band played lively airs and the army beating step ready to inarch off. At 9 o'clock came the command and the army was Ln motion along the yellow pike road. The day's tramp was one of thirteen miles to Gaithersburg where the army rests until Saturday morning. KELLY'S ARMY IX THE KAIS. Bad Weather Keeps the Farmers Away and the -Men Have to Walk. Adair, Iowa, April 27. One hundred and twenty one Sacramento men were missine today when Kelly massed his in dustrial army for the march. The men had asserted last night that they would walk no further and as soon as breakfast was over folded their tents and silent v prepared to steal rides. '1 hey said they would not rejoin the army at Stuart tonight, but Kelly was confident that seductive influence of the commissary would bring them back. The march today was begun under discouraging prospects. Iiain began fall ing soon after dawn, and the wagons that had been expected to carry the army failed to materialize. There were scarce ly sufficient teams to haul the baggage aud the Bick, and grumbling among the NIGHT EDITION. TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY men was loud and deep. Kelly waited for teams and then discouraged, ordered the army forward, telling them to take the railroad instead of the wagon road, if they wished. "But do not interfere with the trains," he commanded; "if you do, you caunot go any further with me." The bugler blew a faint blast and the companies moved forward. There were no cheers of the townspeople; no flowers for the general. The men tramped si lently along the soggy joad and at the first turn fully 250 of them turned upon the railroad and began a tie calculation. A MoDoiOnont Outlook. The monotony of the start was relieved by an interesting one-round mill between two of the industrials, who punched one another with marked energy, and who shouted loudly when their comrades sep arated them. The eight mile tramp to Casey was a dismal one and very slow, but a hot meal and coffee revived the men's courage and on the re mainder of the trip better time was made. One of the Council Bluffs advance com mitteemen, R. O. Graham, became con vinced today that further efforts to secure wagon transportation for the army would be useless and returned home. The farmers in the vicinity are much less inclined to haul the men than those further west and Graham became con vinced that the aamy is billed for a foot march to Des Moines. Kelly spent the time today in organizing his base ball team nd expects to do battle on the diamond when he reaches L)es Moines. A camp artist is preparing a banner for the club bear the inscription: "INDUSTRIAL SIN'E, Z SLIDE KELLY SLIDE; I ON TO WASHINGTON.'.' PROF. BEMIS ON COXETISJL The Notid Educator of Chicago University Says Monopoly Caused I. Chicago, April 27. A lecture delivered by Prof. Edward W. Bern is before an audience of ministers last evening on the subject of "How to liaise Wages" created considerable comment. He said that no one could tell where the present unrest among the industrial classes would end; that the feeling is deep and comes from a belief among the laboring people that they have not shared in the benefits of machinery and are suffering from methods of taxation and frym monopo lies. "The fact is," the speaker said, "the tendency of wages is toward the minim um upon which life can be sustained. It is a matter of bargaining between the employer and the employe, and in these negotiations the laboring man i3 usually weak. Organization gives to labor a stronger position and hence a stronger bargaining power. But the great mass of the laboring people is unorganized and men continue to compete with each other. "The minimum of wages is the amount which is absolutely necessary to sustain life. In this country many classes of workingmen have raised their wages by raising their standard of living. The free school system has produced a generation of people who demand more in living. Much can be gained now by giving to the children of the working people a better education and by encouraging them to develop themselves so that they will not work for an existance only. I have not discovered an ethical principle upon which a division of the profits can be made between capital and labor and I have never heard of any one who has, but we are sure that laboring men ought to have a great opportunity for the develop ment of the manhood that is in them Unless we hasten to curb the monopolies and stop the corruption practiced by cor porations in purchasing public franchises there will be an outburst that will sweep us toward socialism. It will be some thing more than the marching of men to Washington. Lock up these men and it will be like firing a volcano." 6CKROUNDED BY PIXKERIONS. Kelly Says They arc Impeding His 3Iarch and Appeals to Omaha. Casey, Iowa, April 27. During the march of the Kelly army tiday the rain ceased, the sky cleared, the day becom ing an ideal one for the pedestrians. But the commissary department received the first slight it has bad since Council Bluffs was left and the men's spirits sank some what. At Casey a good sized gift of provis ions was expected, with coffee and fueL The provisions consisted of a lonely basket of bread and a solitary pound package of coffee. There were no cheers for Kelly and songs by his men. Townspeople gathered curious, but silent to warch the army straggle by and followed to the camp ground to watch the men take dinner. Kelly was incensed at the failure to pro vide food and went through the town without his customary smiles and bows. During the afternoon Gen. Kelly issued the following appeal to Mayor Bemis of Omaha: To Mayor Bemis and Citizens of Omaha: "One more appeal from the industrial army. We are entirely surrounded by Pinkerton and railroad detectives who are sparing no pains to break up our movement. Send us supplies by rail as soon as possible bread, meat, coffee. We urge you once more to stand by us and hope to make Des Moines some time Sunday. Route im peded in every conceivable manner. Transportation by wagon must in great part be paid for. Signed C. T. Kelly, General." The manifesto of Kelly gave great ex pression to the sentiment of the men and threats against the Pinkertons are be coming hourly more numerous. There was no indication of an attempt by the Sacramento division to capture a train during the day, the men apparently de termining to scatter and trust to bumpers and brake beams. "PA" CHASE'S CIKCULARS. They Sound Bloodthirsty and Are Thrown In the Gutter. St. Loris, April 27. General Meyer's army of industrials now numbers 100 and will be much larger before It starts for Washington next week. They embrace all trades, and many of them are skilled workmen who are unable to obtain em ployment. General Meyer says the movement is backed by some of the best citizens, who are giving financial aid, and is indorsed by all the labor organi zations of the city. He says, on reaching Washington, the army will ask congress to pass laws to stop foreign emigration, prohibit convict labor and prevent wo men from filling men's places in facto ries. Commander 3Ieyer yesterday received a lot of circulars signed: 'Pa' Chase, St. Louis," and headed: "Oh, Fool Pluto crats! Oh, Fool Congressmen! The revo lution is on. Shall it be a bloody one? Shall it be a peaceful one? Ye fiddle while Rome is burning." The circulars were carefully deposited in the gutter and Commander Meyer says they sound eilly. 18 CLEVELAND AFRAID Of the Hungry Ragamuffins Coming to Washington "To See About It?" Washington, April 87. An armed watchman has been put on duty in the corridor just outside the president's bed room door. This is the first time such precaution has been taken since Presi dent Lincoln was in the White house. The night guard began his duty last Sat urday night. Two other guards are on duty in the White house. One is station ed at the door of the main entrance; the second is at the foot of the stair case leading to the second floor, where the sleeping rooms are. The White house detail from the po lice force consists of thirteen men in the course of the twenty -four hours. An ad ditional detail will be made next Mon day, when the industrials are expected to arrive in greater force. At that time the gates in the great iron fence which encloses the Pennsylvania avenue front of the White house grounds will be clos ed, it is expected, and only those who can show legitimate business will be al lowed to enter. GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN ARRESTED He Wanted to Be a Martyr But They Wouldn't Lat Him. Washington, April 27. Geo. Francis Train is dnder arrest. The philosopher of psychic force wanted to languish in a dungeon deep after his arrest, but an un sympathetic police refused to comply and instead carried1 Mr. Train to the po lice court for immediate trial instead of a confiuei&ent first and trial afterwards. Mr. Trin arrived in Washington yesterday Attracted by the notoriety sur rounding the Coxey movement. Last night he delivered a lecture. The for mality of securing a license, a necessary incident in the District of Columbia, was not complied with and today the police swooped down upon Mr. Train and put him under arrest for the violation of the license ordinance. Mr. Train recommended that he be taken to a police cell and incarcerated. The request was refused and the police took him straight to the police court which was in session to await there his turn for trial. Judge Milner of the police court re fused to make a myrtyr of George Fran cis Train and dismissed the charge against him. RKMESIBEREU AT MASSILLON. Coxey's Neighbors Will Plow and Plant Hi Fields For Him. Washington, April 27. One piece of encouragement received by Mr. Coxey is a note from Congressman Coffeen, of Wyoming, inclosing $50, and a strong endorsement o-f the Commonweal move ments. Another letter was from the farmers aruund Massillon, Ohio, saying that they were so impressed with the success and sincerity of the Commonweal command er that they were going to do all his spring plowing and sowing for him, out of pure friendship. A SCUOON'EK LOAD SAILS. Coxeyites Going to Washington by Boat With Oysters for Coinmenwealers. Washington, April 27. The schoon er Harriet Lippincott, Captain John Rob bins, sailed from the West Jersey rail road piers at Bivalve today for Washing ton, with a crowd of men to meet Coxey and army when they arrive there. In the vessels hold were provisions of all kinds, and several thousand oysters donated by Port Norris and Bivalve oys ter shippers and business firms for the use of the army when it arrives in Wash n ;ton. A large crowd cheered them as they sailed away. It is reported that quite 'a number of other boats will leave for Washington this v week on the same mission. A well-known oyster man said today that Chesapeake bay oyster men were doing the same thing, and will send several boatloads of oys ters to Washington to feed the Coxey men. STIFFEN HIS BACK. "Are We to Have Law or Larceny Order or Annrchj." New York, April 27. Lawyer James McNaught of the Northern Pacific Rail road company, received a flood of tele grams from the west at his office here today. An ex-United States senator from the west whose name or state which he used to represent, Mr. McNaught de clined to give for publication, tele graphed as follows: "For God's sake stiffen the back of this weakening governor and court. Let us know whether we are to have law- or larceny, order or anarchy.",; GROUND IS BROKEN For the New Santa Fe Hospital un East Sixth Today. II. Iledderman, the man with the con tract to construct the new Santa Fe hos pital on Fast Sixth street, has given the fub-contract for excavating to Abe Ful ford of this city, and this morning as soon as it stopped raining Ful ford began operations on a small scale, but large enough to warrant the an nouncement that work has been com menced. With half a dozen men work was commenced removing the trees necessary, and on Monday morning it is expected that forty men and fifty teams will be at work on the hospital site. CARRYING A RED FLAG. Five Hundred Wisconsin Miners Demand Food or'Work. Milwaukee, April 27. A special to the Wisconsin from Escanaba, Michigan, says a mob of 500 unemployed miners are parading the streets of Iron Moun tain today, carrying a red flag and de manding food or work. The mayor will send a committee to Lansing to to plead with Gov. Rich for help. EVENING, APRIL 27, TOLUCA JilVADED. Nearly Six Thousand Striking Miners March In With Brass Bands at 6 O'clock This Morn insr. WORKING MINERS RUN. Fear Keeps Them From Going to Work. Mr. Devlin Refuses to Address the Strikers, The Trouble Appears to Be Oyer for the Present. "Toluca, 111., April 27. The miners who halted for a rest at Big Sandy last night, broke camp at 4 a. m. today, arriving at ToLuca at 6 a. m. with the blare of brass bands and'drum corps. There were nearly 5,400 of them. As they filed into town they were met by the citizens. Although footsore and weary they had not lost any enthusiasm. Most of the colored miners that work here left for other places last night to avoid a skirmish and are not likely to return un til the army leaves town. As soon as the men arrived they as sembled on the commons near Supt. Diggins house, but adjourned again to await the arrival of the army from Strea tor and Kangley. This wing arrived later, however, having marched all the way from Streator. A few minutes previous to their arrival Lieutenant Governor Gill, President J. A. Crawford, and Vice President James W. Murray arrived in a special train from Joliet. A conference took place between the men and Charles J. Devlin in the latter's private car. The miners officials wanted Mr. Devlin to address the miners, but he declined saying that he had not. invited them here aud consequently had no desire to ad dress them. The meeting was called to order by Chairman O'Connor of Spring Valley and was addressed by Messrs Gill, Crawford, and Murray, who counselled peace and surged the army to leave and told all the Toluca miners to decide for themselves. Finally this was agreed on and Mr. Dev lin at once arranged for a special train to take the army home. It is the general impression here that the Toluca miners will not return to work. If they'do not the mission of the army is successful. Were Ready With a Oatllng Gun. Chicago, April 27. Great preparations had been made' for the hot work at To luca today, bui the quieting down of the trouble has deferred the movement of the military foe the present at least. Brigadier General Wheeler says the first regiment is fully equipped and ready for prolonged service. "We are ready to take a gatling gun with us." he said, "and also our wheel and signal corps." A special train of ten coaches was ready in the Santa Fe yarda awaiting the orders of the militia. The run to Toluca was to be made in four hours. Gen. Wheeler received a telegram from Adjutant General Bayle this morn ing relieving the first regiment from going to Toluca, The telegram said: "Everything has been settled satisfac torily aud troops will not be needed." A majority of the Toluca miuers are negroes, which accounts in part for the bitterness of the white miners toward them. NOTES FROM THE ARMIES. Progress of the Industrial Brljradss la All Farts of the Country. Fort Morgan, Colo., April 27. Gray son's commonweal army of 150 men ar rived. here today, some in wagons and others walking.

Ninety men responded to the call within 45 minutes, but most of them were dismissed and told to await orders. Col. Greene denies that there was any other motive than an emergency call to test the availability. Danielsvtlle, Conn., April 27. The Providence contingent of the Coxey army are encamped in a barn in this town. What they lack in numbers they make up in disreputable appearance. Sympathizers furnished a supper for the men and gave them a breakfast this morning. ijpRiNGFTEiD, Mass., April 27. 31 a j or Rexford, of the United States army here, has shipped to the chief of ordinance at Washington 65 carbines and 100 rifles, 45 calibre.

St. Paul, Minn., April 27. Two trains arrived here today over the Northern Pacific from the coast, one of them nearly on time, but the other 24 hours late, both having been delayed by the train p train. The unanimous testimony is that the Hoganites are a very tough looking ele ment. When the train reached Forsythe, Ilo gan left his men aboard and sought the station agent," demanding: "See, here, Mr. Agent, I want an engine to carry us on east." "Certainly Mr. Hogan," the agent re plied. We will do all we can for you. Step right into my office." Hogan then followed him in and found a deputy marshal in waiting for him. A huge revolver was thrust under his nose and he was told that the first movement or outcry would be his last. Hogan yielded and sat down a pris oner. His men patiently waited on the train and presently along came Col. Page's troops, 'lhe train was silently surrounded and before the Coxeyites knew what had happened a cordon of soldiers was about them and they were prisoners. A few of the prominent leaders were singled out and sent to join Hogan in the station, leaving the others on guard on the train. Some few escaped in the darkness, but the most were found .and retaken before morning, though half a dozen hid until the regu lar train came along .and by secreting themselves upon it got out of danger of arrest. The passengers Bay there was no ex citement, as most of the men were asleep. judge-Foster's vigor. He Shows It Remarkably A Talk With the Invalid Jurist. Judge C. G. Foster and party have re turned from Texas where the judge went last November in search of a climate better suited to his hoalth. Judge Foster was not unsuccessful, and while he is far from being a well man, he says he feels much improved and thinks his winter in Texas and the waters at Sour Lake have "done much towards restoring him to his old time vigor and activity. Judge Foster was seen at liis home on Harrison street today by a Journal reporter. He talked entertainingly and hopefully about-'his case. "I weigh only 118 pounds," he said, "which is 45 pounds less than I weighed before I became sick. I have no doctor now. With all due respect for them, for they are a very nice set of men, there are a great many things they don't know. I haven't had a regular physician in attendance on me since I got back from Indianapolis over a year ago. I have been making a careful study of my dis ease, and my only medicines are pepsin and other aids to digestion. I got tired of filling my system up with drugs. I am very careful of my diet I eat only strength giving- foods, and beware of fats, greases, and pastry. Al though I weigh no more than I did before I went south I fee, a great deal stronger. "I have no task-master and I do not pro pose to work so hard hereafter. My friends tell me my weakness has been in working too hard. There is no occasion for this. I will hold court at the periods prescribed by law, but this custom which I had fallen into of holding court every Monday to accommodate the- bar, I will not attempt now. "It seems strange to me that I. have outlasted a great many of my friends who were in the prime of health when I was an invalid. There are my od friends Senator Plumb, T. Dwight Thacher and Charles Kendall have gone ahead ofxme. lean account for this only that I being an invalid, have taken better care of my self. "I see by the papers that the subject of Judge Foster's pension is still being agitated. I have dismissed the subject of resigning from my mind, and I will not revert to it unless the bill passes. In that case I would consider It very seri ously. In my twenty years' service on the federal bench I have worn myself out, and I do not propose now, in. my old age, to be thrown out into the thistle patch." TO ARREST R. J. STEWART. Constable Williams Armed With a War rant lor the Defaulter. Constable Williams of J ustice Furry's court started at 2:45 this afternoon for the home of Robert J. Stewart west of the city, armed with a warrant sworn to by T. A. Beck as receiver of Capitol lodge No. 3 which charges Stewart with em bezzlement. The warrant is for only one count in the sum of about $75. Other warrants may follow when more is known regarding Stewart's defalcation. Justice Chesney will place" his bond at J $1,000 which Stewart will probably not be able to give, at least at once. Porter Cook claims that he holds a bill of sale on all of Stewart's property which records show is mortgaged for all it is worth with C. W. Jewell. The workmen think there is something "crooked" in his individual as well as lodge relations. LOCAL MENTION. -C There was a good rain last night all over the eastern division of the Rock Island. C M. Aiken, late of Rockford, 111., now associate state secretary of the Y. M. C. A., will lead the meeting at the railroad Y. M. C. A. rooms next Sunday afternoon.

A close friend, of SenaWor Quay's says he was taken sick .about two weeks ago but it was not known to tho general public.

He was seen in hi special car by a State Journal report er and asked as to the probability of liis road entering Topeka or Kansas. "I have heard nothing about it," he said; "and I don't believe any of tho other officials of the road have. I do not know at this time what tho company would or would not do about it if it was rightly approached. Times are pretty hard to build railroads now." CHAUNCEY DEl'EW IS WON. He Comes Over lo the Side of the Woman Suffragist. Nkw Yohk, April 27. Chauncey De pew, it is asserted, has signed the woman suffrage petition. In discussing it he is quoted as saying: "I have been the error of my ways. That is, I think that times have changed. The position of woman has chang ed. Women herself is differ ent in some respect from what she used to be. She owns a large amount of prop erty upon which she is taxed. She has a right to say how she shall bo taxed and under what laws she shall conduct her business." LINE TO LEAVENWORTH. Receiver McLellan Thinks It Will Tie Running Within 20 Iays. Receiver C. T. McLellan, of the Leav enworth, Topeka and Southwestern, hm returned from his trip of inspection over the road. He says the line is in much better shape than he expected and will not require such a large outlay of money to make it "navigable." He is now en gaged in making an estimate as to what needs to be done. There are five stations along the line from Meriden to Leavenworth, and the people of Jefferson and Leavenworth counties are very anxious to have it put in operation as soon as possible. Mr. Mc Lellan thinks it will not be many weeks until the trains are running again, possi bly not more than ten or twenty days.

St. Paul, Minn., April 27. All ef forts for a peaceful settlement of the Great Northern Pacific strike have been declared off, and the company and the American Railway union have begun to test their strength, and it may yet end in bloodshed. The Great Northern extends from this city to the coast with many branches in this state, and the Dako'tas, and its 2,495 miles of track goes through considerable new country, where no other means of travel are to be had, and where the conditions of society allow a some what rough element xo control af fairs. The result in that section, when the road begins to run its trains with new men, will be that there will be war to the knife, and perhaps with it. A very important side issue in this contest is the fact that the strike was declared and is being managed by a new organization, the American Rail way union, practically in opposition to the federated brotherhoods of rail way engineers, firemen, conductors, and trainmen. Some members of the brotherhoods are also members of the union, bat many others are not, and as the brotherhoods have signed schedules with the road, the men feel that they must stand by their con tracts even though they might not like everything. The freig-ht train that went out yesterday after noon on its way to the coast was manned by brotherhood men, all old employes of the company. The union leaders claim they will have all the men on the line out, and it but re mains to be seen whether the men will go with the union or stand by the brotherhoods. The brotherhood chiefs are apparently taking no active part in the right, although it is considered something in the nature of a fight for existence between the two organiza tions.

Heksesset, Ok., April 27. Farmers residing near Independence and Arap ahoe, little country postoffices in the Cheyenne country, have been bothered considerably of late by an organized band of horse thieves, who have stolen over fifty head of valuable horses. Vigilance committees were organized and last Tuesday found the trail of the thieves leading in the direction of Greer coun ty, in the Panhandle of Texas. They overtook the outlaws twenty miles from the Texas line, with ten head of stolen horses; seven outlaws were in the band. The vigilantes sur rounded them in a bunch of cedars and killed five of the party and the other two surrendered. They led them to a neighboring tree, put" them on two horses with their hands tied behind them and at a yell the horses dashed from under them and they swung in space. The vigilantes then riddled their bodies with bullets and left the dead men in the forest, food for the vul tures and mountain lions. This will no doubt serve as a warning to the numerous bands of outlaws and thieves in this portion of Oklahoma. GOING TO NEBRASKA. President and Mrs. Cleveland Will Visit Mr. Morton at Arbor Lodge.

Senator Alien's Resolution is Overwhelmingly Defeated. Washington, April 27. Immedi ately after the reading of the journal in the senate yesterday, Mr. Jarvis, recently appointed from North Caro lina, to succeed the late Senator Vance, was sworn in. Senator Allen's Coxey resolution came up, and Mr. Allen stated there would be no opposition on the Demo cratic side to its passage. Mr. Vest, however. Opposed it. These people should be treated the same as all other citizens of the United States. If they did not violate any laws, they would not be molested, but he deprecated the introduction of such a resolution, because it intimated a Want of confidence in the institu tions and the laws of the land; their right to come here and visit the cap itol was so plain, so evident, that any suspicion about it was reflection on the intelligence of the country. He was opposed to the preamble, however, if it meant to include these men who had trampled on the laws, injured private property and under taken to secure transportation to this city by force of arms, for then he em phatically dissented from it. He de clared the men who were marching to Washington would be protected in their rights, but they would have to learn to abide by the laws of the land, and if congress, for, one instant, com promised with them, it would open a crevasse which would end in a flood and final destruction. If any one wanted to come here, whether they were employed or unemployed, to in spect the public buildings and Visit consress their rights would be re spected, but when they seized trains to come on, when they violated the laws of the country and trampled on the rights of the people, congress ought not to treat with them. Mr. Wolcott of Colorado entered a vigorous protest against passing the resolution. There was to-day no man who sincerely desired to work for the support of himself and his family, who could not get work, or bread to put into the mouths of himself and little ones until work could be found. "I am tired of this talk of national demonstration," he said. "Ih Colo rado to-day, crushed and humiliated as she is by the action of congress, I venture to say no man is suffering be cause he can find no work or no wil ling hands to assist in supporting him until work can be found for him. I believe the time has come when those of us who are in public life ought to begin to cultivate more regard for the perpetuity of republican institutions and to pander less to that miscalled portion of the labor vote, whose labor is with their throats and never with their hands. It is time we stood hp for American manhood, for the right of every man to work if he wants to, if it takes the whole army of the United States to enable him to do so. The right of every man is to enable him to enjoy equal liberty with every other man, and that means he shall have such liberty as is not inconsist ent with equal rights of his neighbor; the right to hold and enjoy the prop erty which the laws of the country have enabled him to secure. It is time we had the courage to stand to gether against this socialism, popu lism and paternalism which is running1 riot in this country and which mast end (if not crushed) in the destruc tion of liberties which the laws give us, liberties which should be dearer to us than life itself." A number of senators took the pains to go to Senator Wolcott, after he had concluded his remarks, and express their-approbation of what he had said. Mr. Dolph, Republican of Oregon, stated that he agreed with what the senator from Missouri (Vest) had Baid, but he called attention to other ob jectionable features of the preamble to the resolution. No one denied the right of citizens of the United States to peaceably assemble to petition con gress or to visit the capitoL His ob jection to the resolution lay in the fact that it was accompanied by a ly-" ing preamble, which was in effect a cenSure of the authorities of the Dis trict of Columbia Mr. Gray of Delaware, also con demned the resolution, even while he said he would vote for it if the pre amble was omitted. He admitted he had a kindly sympathy for the vaga bonds who made our roads so pictur esque in summer. Mr. Allen defended his action in introducing the resolution and spoke for some time. In the course of his speech he called these gatherings "spontaneous uprising of American cit izens against wrong and oppression." He denied it was a socialistic move ment. Whether it Was Populistic he did not know, because he did not know whether any Populists were en gaged in it. It was, he said, a peace able gathering of men engaged in a peaceable project. At 1:45 o'clock, before any aetion had been taken on the resolution. Mr. Harris moved to take up a resolution providing that "to-morrow- and until otherwise ordered, the senate shall meet at 11 o'clock a. m." Senators Peffer and Allen objected to the pending resolution being dis placed and demanded a yea and nay vote. The vote (which also showed the attitude of the senate on Mr. Allen's resolution) was as follows: Yeas Aldrich, Allison, Bate, Berry, Blackburn, Blanchard, Brice, Caffery, Call, Camden, Coke, Cullom, Dubois, Faulkner, George, Gibson, Gorman, Gray, Hale, Hansbrough, Harris, Haw ley," Higgins, Hunton, Jarvis, Jones of Arkansas, Lindsay, Lodge, Me Millan, McPherson, Manderson, Mar tin.

Pueh, Roach, Sherman, Shoup, Teller, Turpic, Vest, Vilas, Voorhees, Walsh, Washburn, White, "Wolcott -54, Nays Allen, Dolph, Frye, Gallin--er, Kyle, Peffer 6. The senate, without division, then agreed to the resolution and Mr. Har ris moved to take up the tariff bill, and Mr. Hlggins, Republican of Dela ware, took the floor in opposition to the bill and, was followed by Mr. Dolph, after which the senate ad journed. DOCKINO" SAX.A&XKS. First Kffsct of Attempts to Xafons tl tt In ne House. W Assrs a tost, April 27. Mr. Hep burn of Iowa interposed his daily ob jection to the approval of the journal in the house and compelled a roll-call, whicH resulted in its approval 237 to nothing. The speaker appointed the following' boards of visitors: To the Military Academy Messrs. Black of Illinois, Hatch of Missouri and Curtis Of New York. To the Naval Academy- Messrs. Meyer of Louisiana, Outhwaite of Ohio and Randall of Massachusetts. At this point became visible the first effects of the attempt to enforce the law of 1856 to "dock" members for absence except on account of sickness. Air. Marion, Keputuican, Pennsylva nia, precipitated the matter by rising to a question of privilege and offering a resolution directing the sergeant-at-arms to pay members their salaries without deductions on account of ab sence unless such absence is first cer tified by some duly authorized officer of the house. A point of order was raised by Mr. Kilgore and supported by several Democrats, that the resolution did not present a question of privilege. The point Was sustained by the speaker on the ground that it was a matter of law and not under the control of the house. "But that is not the law," inter jected Mr. Reed. "That," said the speaker, "is not a question for the house to determine." He added he should decline to certify salaries unless members Informed him how much salary was due them. Another resolution Was promptly offered by Mr. Mahon, declaring that the sergeant-at-arms, in the absence of any rule, has no authority to re quire members to report absences and reasons therefor. This also Was ruled out of order, and an appeal was laid on the table by a strict party vote, except that Mr. Lucas (Republican) of South Dakota voted with the Dem ocrats. The diplomatic and consular appro priation bill was then taken up and after debate passed. The bill as pass ed carried $1,513,538, a decrease of $46,706 compared with the appropria tion for the current year- At 5 o'clock the house adjourned. CHANGES IJf THE TARIFF BILX. Will Be In the Income Tax and Sugar Schedule. Washecgtn', April 27. The principal changes to be made in the tariff bill, in accordance with the agreement made by the Democratic senators yes terday, are in the income tax and sugar schedules. The sugar men have been from the first clamorous for an ad valorem instead of a specific duty, and that change has been con ceded. The details have not been ab solutely fixed, but there is little doubt the sugar schedule will be entirely supplanted by a new one, which will provide a uniform duty of 40 per cent ad valorem, with an addition of one eighth of a cent for refined sugar. The principal change in the income tax, is a provision for the limitation of the time the law shall remain jn operation. It will probably be about five or six years. There will be no change -in the rete of taxation, which will be left at 2 per cent on amounts in excess of $4,000. A number of changes in the rate of duty will be made in the iron sched ule, in which there will be a slight ad vance over the rates fixed by the pending bill. Carpets, also, will se cure an advance. In many cases the rates fixed in the house bill replace those of the bill reported to the sen ate by the finance committee. Another material concession which will be made to the disaffected sena tors will be the restoration of the spe cific system in many places where the finance committee changed the house bill by the substitution of ad valorem duty. It is understood that the entire Dem ocratic majority of the finance com mittee is in hearty accord upon the Wisdom of the proposed changes. INDIAN APPROPRIATIONS. Bill Contains Ko Provision to Par five Commissioners. WASflisatox, April 27.-The Indian appropriation bill will not contain any provision for the payment of the ex penses of the board of five Indian com missioners. Among the reductions in estimates made by the committee and not here tofore noted are the following: For support of Apaches, Kiowas, Com manches and Wichitas, from $125,000 to $90,OO0; support of Apaches and other Indians in Arizona, from $200,000 to $185,000; pay of Indian police, from $150,000 to $125,000, and survey and subdivision of Indian reservations, from $25,OOQ to $15,000. THE DALTON GANG. Three Vigilant Killed and Threo Ban dits Reported Voondd. Wichita, Kan., April 27. -A dis patch from Coal Creek, Ind. Ter., says that a party of bandits, supposed to be the Dal ton gang, encountered a posse of vigilants near there and had a terrible fight. Three of the ban dits were wounded, one mortally. Three of the vigilants, William Ross, John Hall and James Hammond, were killed, and others wounded, but not fatally. Lswjer-Preseher Commits Suicide. Newkirk, Ok., April 27. Yesterday morning A. EL Lee, a prominent citi zen of Parker, committed suieide after being- on a spree for several weeks. Lee was a Christian minister, but at the time was practicing law. His death was due to strychnine, of Which he took thirty grains. THEY CANT CROWD. DistrictCommissioners SayThat the Commonwealers Can't Assemble in the City of Washington. LOUD TALK AND IV01SE Is the Provision That Applies to Them. WAsamaTOir, April 27. The Dis trict commissioners cast a damper over the local supporters of Coxey's movement yesterday by refusing them permission to hold open-air meetings. It had been expected by the enthusi asts that these meetings would draw Converts and cash contributions for the cause. The refusal of the com missioners was based on a law that prohibits Congregating on the public streets or in the parks, or engaging in loud and boisterous talking, and they stats they have no power to grant a permit. The Coxeyites are angered at this refusal, declaring the law never was intended to apply to orderly speech making. They point to the (salvation. Army meetings which are held in the streets, and to the sidewalk services of itinerant evangelists who flourish here as instances of non-obeyance of the rule. The event of the day was the advent of Citizen George Francis Train, who predicts that we are on the verge of the biggest revolution the world has ever seen, and that the Jefferson Davis matter won't be an item in com parison with it. The authorities in charge of the cap itol buildings are now considering the advisability of formally surrendering their authority to the District of Col umbia and asking that a sufficient protection be given by the police force of the city. This step has seemed de sirable owing to the small force of capitol policeman. The latter are paid by congress, and there is no way of increasing their number. It would take too long to get through an ap propriation biH for extra officers, and it has been found the contingent fund is not available for this purpose. Major Moore of the city police force has promised ample reinforcements if necessary. But this is not accepted as entirely satisfactory. It is not yet de termined the capitol buildings will be turned over to the protection of the city authorities, but one of the officials of chief authority says events are rapidly tendinsr to'that result. The Odd Fellows' procession at tempted to march through the capitol grounds yesterday, but was turned back at the entrance by the capitol police. The Odd Fellows made some remonstrance, but when assured the law permitted no exceptions they quietly submitted. The incident will doubtless prove a precedent if Coxey attempts to invade the capitol grounds, as he has said it was his in tention to do. A NEW ABUT ON THE MARCH. Two Thousand Miners Mot In a; on an Illinois Min lag Town. Spbiicg Vallky, III., April 27. Yes terday afternoon a new industrial army started on the march, and before it reaches its destination the outlook is that it will ,be larger than all the commonweals and industrials of Coxey and Kelly put together. A big army of miners left here yester day afternoon for Toluca, Charles Devlin's new mining town, where some 500 men are working in the mines. Nearly 2,000 men moved from this city and other miners were simul taneously marching in neighboring mining camps. Lad sent a delega tion of 400. Five commissary wagons were filled with food, the contribution of business men. Fred Knowles is Commander-in-chief of the forces. He issued an order to the effect that no one would be allowed to carry arms. The sheriff of Marshall coun ty, with fifty deputies, is at Toluca, awaiting the Spring valley army. At 11:30 o'clock last night Acting Governor Gill received a dispatch from Sheriff Lenzof Marshall county, urg ing that the presence of the militia at Toluca is absolutely necessary to pro tect the miners at work at Toluca and the property of the company, stating that 3,001) strikers of all na tionalities were on the march for that place. The dispatch is also signed by the mayor and city officials and officers of the mining company. The governor declined to order out the troops, but left the city at midnight for the scene, telegraph ing the sheriff of his coming. APPROACHING A CRISIS. Serions Trouble With Kelly's Army Is Apprehended. Adair, Iowa, April 27. The Rock Island officials anticipate serious trouble -with the industrial army to day. About 9 o'clock last night Yard master Hamilton of the Des Moines railroad took several assistants and distributed through Kelly's camp a circular signed by Division Superin tendent Stillwater, which says in part: "Threats having bean made that a train of this eorapany will or mat be seized by parties In the so-called 'Industrial army' or other like organization, for the purpose of runninsr the same over the tracks of this company, notice id hereby eiven that in ease any such seizure occurs and an attempt is made to run such train on the tracks of this company, for the safety of publie travel and of our employes, the passage of such train will be -obstructed, the usual danger sienaJs displayed at the point or points of obstruction, and any train running in opposition to such signals or no tice, will be at tne peril of the parties operat ing or upon the not" The men clustered around the camp fires to read the notices and the air was soon filled with denunciations of the road and its officials, Kelly was highly Incensed over the aetion of the company. "This is an attempt," said he, "to incite my men to riot, to make them seize a train. That is the rail road's only hope. They must make us lawless or their plans to stop us will fail. We will not seize a train. We will get it at Des Moines without aeizura. WHOM GREAT G0LPEN lENAGERIE, ETR0P0LITAN UULIUSEUJVV wild MOORISH 4TT HI f-rjsas' -"fx PRESENTING TBI Republic in Amusements.

Voorhees is in Favor of a Speedy. Yote, And Wants the Wilson Bill Pushed Thronrrh. MUST MOVE QUICKLY. Doesn't Believe Great Reforms Take Lots of Time. Washington, April 27. Special. 1 In spite of losses and crosses, laps and slams, tho frienCs of the Wilson bill are once more full of hope that It will pass the senate, and that at a tolerably early day. Tho word early must be construed accord ing to senatorial custom and may mean any time In June or July. Senator Voor--hees declines to make a guess at the day,but talks with a good deal of freedom about the improved chances of the bill. "There is," said he, "a great deal of impatience among the people. In fact, reformers are always an impatient set, especially young ones. Here is a letter I just received from a young Democratic editor in our state a tindly letter, but showing great impa tience. It is a specimen of many. I had to write a letter to some of thoso gentle men not long ago in which I pointed out to them that the world was not made in a day, although there was no lack of a reli able majority. It is a habit of reformers, and especially American reformers, to want everything done right away. They do not stop to consider that if this congress so much as makes a good start in tariff re form, no matter how small the reduction, it will bo a wonderful gain on the situa tion a few years ago, when it was almost treason to say that the tariff should be re formed at all except upward. Senator Voorheeg Upon Reforms. "You remember all about that great temperance excitement that swept over the west in the early fifties, when they had temperance camp meetings and gatherings of I don't know how many thousands of people in various towns, and you remem ber how the speakers nearly all predicted that this nioTement would sweep till before it and abolish the traffic. Plenty of sensi ble men staked their reputation on predic tions that in 10 years there would not bo a whisky shop in the state. Well, fourtimcs 10 years have past, and it is a matter of dispute whether there are not as many sa loons in Indiana in proportion to the peo ple as there were when the Sons of Tem perance and their allies were making such A racket. "It has been the same way with every re form, but there is no need of our going so slow with this bill. Everybody can see that the Republicans are just talking to postpone action as long as possible, but they may make a mstako about that. The longer this bill is delayed, if it finally be comes a law, tho more sudden and stupen dous will bo tho revival of business which follows. Consumptive demand will force it, as the shelves of the merchants are pretty near lare, and it i3 to be hoped that the farmers have about worn otit their old clothes. In fact, if we have goad crops and get any kind of prices for them, there will be a great revival. Be that as it may, however,- I am for bringing this debate to a close when reasonable time has been given. I would vote for a stringent closure rule." A Complicated Problem. The senate committee on public lands Is struggling with a complicated problem, which is a legacy of the old timber cultura act and incidentally involves some toler ably prominent men, including such ex tremes in the political world as Colonel Phil Thompson and "Forerunner" Red stone. It will be remembered that before tho limits of fertile and arid land were so well denned as now congress passed a gen eral act granting pretty large areas to all who would plant part in timber and culti vate for a term of years. Tho act was so loosely worded that great abuses arose un der it, as the methods of proof provided for wore very defective, and if construed literally there was scarcely a limit to the amount one man could hold. On the last day of the Fifty-first congress, therefore, an act was rushed through re pealing the timber culture act, but it soon appeared that this timber repeal bill was in some j-espects as loosely worded a3 the oth er, it being defective in providing for dis puted claims. It soon appeared that an im mense number of contestants would appeal to tho land department, and that several of these contests involved the titles to im portant town sites, as a very large part of the timber culture area was settled with great rapidity. Secretary Noble decided that the repeal of the law put an end to all contests under it; that the contestants had no standing end the men in possession must hold. This gave occasion for a flood of relief bills, and at this session Senator Blackburn introduced a bill to so far amend tho repeal act as to give the contest ants an inchoate right and a standing in court. It Made Him a Crank. The Vigorous opposition which sprang up and the way in which the bill was ad vocated soon showed that there was some kind of a combination in its favor. It is alleged that Colonel Phil Thompson and a certain Mr. Butz, formerly a congressman from the south, have organized a lobby for the bill, and the savage opponents of it do not neglect to call attention to the fact that whereas Mr. Butz "was a carpetbag congressman in the darkest days of recon struction be is now a frantic Democrat in the northwest and is posing as such before the committee." Colonel Redstone only comes in incidentally, but having very lit tle confidence in the Butz combine he has had a bill of his own introduced. He was a settler on the border of the Sequoia park in California, and when the reservation wa3 made it took in his land. Ho claims that the land was legally open to settlement when he took it, that the troops drove him off with circumstances of aggravation, and that his implements of improvement were a total loss. Since these facts have transpired some people think that was the main cause of his becoming a cranks It is chiefly of interest now because' everything relating to Coxey and his lieutenants is eagerly read. The committee is at present disposed to favor the bill securing right of contest, but the battle of the opposing Interests continues In the intervals of the tariff debate. Sen ators Kyle and Pettigrew have introduced bills for sending out an agent or commis sion to decide each case on its merits. Another bill before this committee pro vides for selling all the desert lands, and still another proposes government aid to the states and territories to reclaim them. The bill Introduced and supported by Sen ator Dolph provides for a rather radical change in the whole public land system and makes special provisions for preserving all forests yet owned by the government. A FAT JOB FOR DAYID. It 1 Reported Ha I In Bern Offered a $30,000 Position. A sensation was created in local po litical circles today by the statement that David Overmyer has been offered the position of register of deeds for the' Dis trict of Columbia. Mr. Overmyer is in Minnesota on legal business. His law partner, S. B. Isenhart, said: "I don't know anything1 about it. I have heard the report but do not think it authentic I don't think he has been tendered the position and don't think he would accept it. He has not been an applicant for the position and is now in Minneapolis on business. I would proba bly know if there were any grounds for the rumor." This is the office to which the colored Democrat, C. IL J. Taylor, of Kansas City, Kansas, was appointed, by Presi dent Cleveland. The senate committee has reported unfavorably on Taylor's ap pointment, and it is thought that some other western man will be named. Mr. Overmyer would be given the indorsement of all Kansas Democrats. The place is a lucrative one paying 20, 000 a year, it is said. Ex-Attorney General Ives said: "I don't know much about it I have heard such a report, but know nothing about its authenticity. John Martin is trying to get Overmyer out of Kansas politics. He is a thorn in Martin's side and Martin would like to get rid of him, by putting him into the .position of register of deeds." The secret of the move is that with Overmyer out of the way as Democratic candidate for governor, there would be no obstacle to fusion of Democrats and Populists in this state which is earnestly desired by John Martin and his Populist friends. CHARTERS FILED. New Organizations Authorized to Xo liusinejs In Kauai. The following organizations have filed charters with the secretary of state. The Kansas City Ice company.

The Dentists Like Others Believe In Legi timate Ad vrtisiiir. A prominent member of the State Den tal association gave a Joursal reporter the idea yesterday that its members were opposed to advertising and that Dr. Van Fossen was expelled for being enterpris ing in pushing his business. The same member says today that he was in a hurry and did not state the whole case; that the dentists do believe it entirely proper to"" advertise in a legitimate way through the papers, but that Dr. Van Fossen adver tised himself as a director of a lottery concern, and as being able to do things which the dentists knew that he could not do, and that thereby .he was an.im poster and not entitled to membership in an association of reputable professional men. CONFERRED AFTER ALL. Great Northern striken and Officials Meet, Hat Accomplish Nothing. St. Paul, April 27. Contrary to ex pectations President Debs, Vice Presi dent Howard and one or two others called on President Hill and asked if they could resume their conference with him. He promptly acquiesced. Before going into conference President Debs told a reporter that the men had) not altered their demands in the slightest, nor did they intend to do so. The conference did not last a great while, and at its conclusion the men re sumed their own meeting in labor hall. Neither the men nor the officials would give any information as to the object of the conference nor of its results, excep that Vice President Clough told a report ter that "We know more than we did yesterday about the men's position in re gard to arbitration." At 8 o'clock today the company started a fully equipped passenger train, which they propose to send through to Great Falls. Vice President Clough said this train carried no deputies, but it is believed a force will be picked up somewhere along the line. ROBBED OX THE TRAIX. Am Affed 3Ian on a Santa Fe Train Loses Eighty Dollars. An aged man on Santa Fe passenger traiu No. 7, westbound, was robbed of all his money, amounting to about eighty dollars, and a gold watch between here and Osage City last night about 12 o'clock. There are supposed to have been two of the robbers, but they got off the train at some intermediate point, and have not been apprehended. The theft was not discovered until the victim awoke at Osage. City aud found that his pocket3 had been picked. THE LYONS CASE Continued to May 16 By the Board of Railroad Commissioner. The case of the city, of Lyons against the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe and Missouri Pacific railroads came up this afternoon before the board of railroad commissioners for lower rates on farm implements, vehicles and binding twine.

The arrangements for the coming state pharmaceutical meeting in thU city, May 29 to 31, are progressing nicely. The sessions of the association will be held in the hall of the Masonic temple. The following questions will be dis cussed by the association: Does the retail drug business pay? Does pharmacy present any advant ages for men over women? To what extent can pharmacists profit ably make their own preparations? Is it an advantage for pharmacists to deal in articles outside of drugs and medicines? What is the best plan to secure and keep competent assistants, and what wages should they receive? Do the semi-proprietary preparations afford the', druggist a paying profit, con sidering the qualifications as required by lawf. To what extent should this association investigate the qualifications of the pros pective candidate for the state board of pharmacy? 1 HELD FOR MURDER. friends of Donahue, t lis Ottawa Dead In dian, Cause His Murderer. Arrest. Ottawa, April 26. The friends of the late Walter Donahue, whom a coroner's jury decided was justifiably killed, by Frank Pitman, have been dissatisfied with the findings of the jury, and have instituted action against both Pitman and Hockensmith before Justice Kice. Today warrants were sworn out by Mrs. Maude Donahue, wife of the deceased, for Frank Pitftian and D. Hockensmith, charging them with the "unlawful, fe lonious, willful, deliberate and premedi tated killing and murdering" of Walter Donahue. Mr. Pitman was at school when the warrant was served and Mr. Hocken smith chanced to be in the city so that service was easily made on him. They appeared before Justice Rice, waived examination, and were put under a bond of il,00O-each. Both gentlemen welcome the prosecu tion, as there is no possibility of other results than as foreshadowed by the find ing of the coroner's jury, and it will for ever remove possibility of future trouble should the case proceed no further now. W. C. T. U. CONVENTION. The Fifth District Endorses "V 0111:111 Suf frage and tli e Amendment. Abilene, April 27. The Fifth district W. C. T. U. convention has concluded its labors and adjourned.

KILLED 11 V A HORSE. A YounB 3Iin at Independence Kicked to Death "While Sitting in His Huggy. Independence, April 27. Geo. Lyon of Neodesha, was kicked to death by the horse he was driving, while watching the Odd Fellows procession at this place. Two young ladies were iu the buggy with him. They were watching the Cof feyville delegation march up from the Missouri Pacific depot, when the horse becoming frightened at the band, began to kick. With a few kicks it broke the dash board. "The next time it kicked it struck Lyon in the breast with both feet,break ing several bones and crushing the walls of the chest against his heart. He died in about 15 minutes. NO SMALL POX THERE. Report That Lawrence Had Cases of the Disease Said to be Untrue. Lawrence, April 27. Dr. Simmons, county health officer, was asked if there was any truth in the rumors of small pox in Lawrence. The doctor stated that the rumor was absolutely false, and further that Lawrence was in an unusually healthy condition, with the exception of measles among children. There is not a case of diphtheria or scarlet fever reported to any of the health officers. Measles are common in the city, though the disease is not of a malignant type. t A NEW TRIAL. Slattex Will Do Given Another Chance For II is Life. Wichita, April 27. The Beacon says: It is now certainly ascertained that Clyde Mattox has been granted a new trial and this will make the fifth hearing he has had on the charge of murdering John Mullen at Oklahoma City. Those who have seen the boy convict lately say that he is terribly emaciated, and looks more fit for a consumptive's grave than a new trial or the hangman's noose. He has had "a long siege of it. Ottawa Gas Works Sold. Ottawa, April 27. Mr. Clifford C. Good in of New York, the gentleman who last September bought the gas works under foreclosure, arrived in Ottawa yes- terday and negotiations were opened and brought to a successful termination whereby the title and the property passes to one of our well known citizens, Mr. A.

One of the Numerous Paris Bomb Throwers In Court Today. Pakis, April 27. The trial of Emile nenri. the anarchist, who on February 12th, threw a bomb into the cafe beneath the Terminus was begun today in the assize court of the department of the beine. The court room was crowded, and among the spectators were several women. Replying to the. questions of the judge, Henri gave his name in a firm voice and later, tfie usher read the in dictment charging him not only with the Cafe Terminus outrage, but also with the explosion in the Hue des Bons Enfants. The prisoner listened to the reading of the long indictment with perfect com posure, and didn't seem at all affected by the recital of charges against him. HONORING GRANT. Galena, Illinois, Pays Tribute to His Memory on His Dirthday. Galen a,. Ills., April 27. Galena was in holiday dress today celebrating Grant's birthday. Hundreds of visitors from sur rounding points thronged the streets, and nearly every building was more or less decorated. A special train from Chicago brought a party of gue6ts, iucluding Luther Lanin Mills, orator of the day. The Chicago visitors were met at the depot by .a re ception committee and military escort and conveyed to Turner hall, where the exercises were held. Mayor Birmingham, as president of the day, introduced Mr. Mills. LOCAL MENTION. The circuit court jury was discharged today by Judge Johnson. James Langley, charged with assault and battery, was discharged in police court this morning. The Hitchcock investigation adjourned at noon today, till Monday evening, at 8 o'clock. Mrs. Mary E. Lease will arrive in the city Monday or Tuesday. The Dispatch band gave a concert last evening, at Hamilton hall. There were six selections by the band, and a- number of solos, recitations and specialties. The concert reflected much credit on Tope ka's colored band. Thieves got 'into the clothing store of Cohn Bros, at the,orner of Third and Kansas avenue, last night. They un locked the back door with a duplicate key. Six pairs of trousers, a quantity of cheap jewelry, a suit of clothes, several pairs of shoes and two valises were taken. Sheriff Burdge was this morning "noti fied by Sheriff Peterson of Kansas City, Kan., "that he had arrested the three men in a little rgd boat who are. wanted in connection with the St. Marys postoffice robbery. Sheriff Burdge says it is doubtful if the men are those who robbed the postoffice. Prof. Hopkins of .the art school gave the impression to the readers of his let ter to Dr. Alderson in last night's Jour nal, that Dr. Alderson's World's fair sermon was preached last Sunday night when as a matter of fact it was preached a long time ago. That Mr. Hopkins should nurse his wrath so long is some what amusing. The professor ought to get up to date when he wants to get mad and not make himself ridiculous. Miners Won't Violence. Connell.svh.le, Pa., April 27. The coke strikers have adopted peaceful means for the future. The foreigners who in former strikes terrorized the com munity with pistol and torch now agree to follow the English speaking workmen and abstain from violence.

The stock was from Texas, New Mexico, and the Panhandle territory, and was bound for eastern markets, and for grazing land in Kansas. Attention Capital Legion Xo. 1.

Kelly ia a little too much, off his base to be an old ball player. It is a pity that the extreme modesty of the dentists who expel a man for ad vertising never extends to their charges. Tbi theater company that wanted Miss Pollard bo badly for the leading female role was probably "Willie," a far cical comedy which is now having such a run in New York. The shelving of Congressman Meyer's compromise seigniorage bill, approved by the president, in favor of Bland's free silver bill is a sign of returning con sciousness in congress. The: Nebraska State Journal asks an swers to the question, "How would you receive Coxey if you were the presi dent?" from all of its readers except Vox Populi, Junius and Citizen. Representative Odthwaite of Ohio claims he didn't say he wouldn't accept a renomination, but instead he "wouldn't seek it." The explanation was unneces sary; men often receive defeat bravely but never court it. When Carl Browne's army passed through Hagerstown, Maryland, an old colored auntie who saw it from hei win dow dropped dead. It looks like the army was menacing enough even if it ia an army of peace. The Rock Island admits that In refus ing to carry Kelly's army it has lost more by the falling off of patronage than it would have cost to haul it clear to Chi cago. Perhaps though the company would rather be right than declare divi dends. Attorney General Qi.net thinks two per cent is enough for a railroad to pay on its bonds, as is shown in his plan for Union Pacific reorganization. The came adminstration considers the gov ernment able to pay three. The govern ment needs a friend. The Great Northern strikers will gain no friends by refusing to arbitrate. The justice of their demands ia the first place was at least doubtful, and unwillingness to submit to a fair adjustment of differ ences by conference betrays a spirit of Intolerance if not a weak cause. Mayor Qilrot of New York has re fused to permit the playing of Miss Alice Pierce in the English adaptation of "Hannele," which is characterized as "impious, blasphemous and Immoral1' It isn't at all strange that where Tammany rules any attempt to depiot the life of the Savior should be considered odious. While in New York General J. Seo ler Coxey made arrangements to lecture there Sunday in the Grand opera house to all those willing to pay 25, 50 or 75 cents to hear him. The proceeds are to go to the army. The public thus far has been disposed to look upon the general's vagaries as a mild form of insanity, but if he ascends the lecture platform noth ing is left to do but attribute his motive to malice. Leavenworth Times: A judge at Omaha sentenced Editor Rosewater, of the Bee, to jail for thirty days and fined him $500 for contempt of court in criti cising the action of the court in punish ing a poor man and releasing a rich man, both of whom had been engaged in the same crime. In this action the judge does not hurt Rosewater, but does more than a thousand newspaper criticisms could do to bring the court into con tempt. Governor Lewkllino should give his celebrated tramp circular a second edi tion. One of his policeman shot another tramp last night. Far be it from us to criticise the policeman in this Instance, for it is given out on good authority that this man was robbing a freight car; but it does seem rather remarkable that un der the benign rule of Governor Lewel ling, who engineers the fatherhood of God and brotherhood cf man govern ment, more tramps should be shot than under any previous Republican govern ment. The tramps may well say "Deliver us from our friends. LITERARY NOTES. The Household, Issued twice a month at Minneapolis, Minn., ia one of the most valuable publications to the housewife. The Kansas City Novel Publishing company are publishing a series of twenty-live cent novels monthly. An inter esting one is celled The Belle of Wyan dotte," and is full of political caricature as well as adventure. The great feature of Lippincott is its complete novel. In the May number is "The Autobiography of a Professional Beauty," by Elizabeth Phipps Train. This work of a little-known writer is re markable for the freshness and brightness of its' style; the heroine is conducted through manifold social and moral dan gers to a safe haven. "If the Devil Came to Chicago," is a sharply satirical reply to W. T. Stead's recent attack upon the institutions and morals of that city. It is written by Aus tyn Granville, a cousin of Rider Hag gard and the author of "The Fallen Race." Bow-Knot Co., publishers; 300 pages; 50 illustrations; paper, 50 cents. The May Arena closes the ninth vol ume of this lender among the progres sive and reformative reviews of the English-speaking world. The table of con tents is strong and inviting to those in terested in live questions and advanced thought. Many important social and economic problems are discussed and ably handled in a brave and fundamental manner, characteristic of tais review. The American Book company, Chi cago, has issued a most interesting vol ume of 400 pages on "Myths of Greece and Rome." The work is embellished scores of photogravure. The narrative is written by H. A. Guerber, an expert on mythology. The aim of the work is to present a complete and entertaining ac count of Grecian and Roman mythology in such a manner that the student will appreciate its great influence upon liter ature and art. The book seems to ac complish its aim. Any one who wishes to have an intel ligent understanding of nature, or a knowledge, of the achievements and pos sibilities of scientific discovery and scien tific thought, should read the Popular Science Monthly. The May number opens with another of Dr.Andrew D. White's new chapters, dealing with the ological and scientific theories of an evo lution in animated nature, in which the persistent efforts of theologians to dis credit this truth are set forth. In an addition to a review of the Cleve land administration by ex-Governor Rus sell (Dem.) of Massachusets and Senator Cullom (Rep.) of Illinois, the May For um contains a discussion of unusual op portuneness and point at a time when "armies" of tramps are marching to wards Washington of the question whether the state should give aid to the unemployed, by Dr. Stanton Coit of New York, who favors state-aid, and by Mr.D. McGregor Means, who argues that state aid means socialism. Messrs." Allen and Saehtleben have written a graphic account of .their re markable journey of 15,000 miles by bicycle, from Constantinople to Peking, and this will be published in The Cen tury, beginning with the May number. They met with many curious and start ling adventures, and these they tell with a simplicity and modesty as if they were not unusual episodes in the rounding out of a college education. They took more than 2500 photographs of scenery and phases of life that curious European eyes bad never looked upon before, and many of these will be reproduced. The young men served, in a measure, as the advance couriers of American progress. They bore the "stars and stripes" strapped to the handle-bars of their bicycles, to people who learned for the first time of is significance. A great Grant number, in token of General Grant's birthday, today, April 27th, describes in a word McClure's Magazine for May. General Horace Porter, a member of Grant's staff, his as sistant secretary of war, and, during the first term of his presidency, his private secretary, writes of his personal traits, particularly of his truth, courage, mod esty, generosity and loyalty. An inter view with Colonel Frederick D. Grant records the impressions of his son, who was General Grant's daily companion in the field through a good part of the war, and who lived always near him to the end of his days. General O. O. Howard and General Ely S. Parker supply some reminiscences; and an autograph letter written by Jesse R. Grant, General Grant's father, in 13(35, gives a most in teresting glimpse into Grant's life and character.- Finally, under the apt title of "General Grant's Greatest Year," Mr. T. C Crawford tells the story of the noble and heroic last year of Grant's life. Scat tered through these articles ana? making up also the department of "Human Docu ments" is the most remarkable series of Grant portraits ever published, if not ever collected, many of them being from rare photographs supplied by Colonel Grant Evolution teaches us that as animal life progresses from lower to higher forms, useless appendages are gradually eliminated, finally disappearing alto gether. In this manner the tails which our simian ancestors possessed, have, in us, gone the way of all flesh; leaving not a wrack behind, save three small bones near the base of the spine as a sort of memorial of the prehensile terminal we once sported. There seems to be a pow erful analogy between evolution of the animal and evolution of society. Our government ones consisted of th ree branches, the legislative, the executive and the judiciary. Every day we see the legislative and the executive losing part of their functions, which are now performed by the judiciary. Deprived of their uses, these two departments must eventually suffer atrophy and fall away, while the judiciary alone shall monopo lize all the functions of government. Our judges 6vq now, presume to tell us what we Intended when we passed our own laws, and -if we say we did not intend that, they coolly Inform us that whatever we did intend ia "unconstitutional" any way. There seems little use of calling legislatures together to pass laws, or of electing presidents and governors to enforce them; not at least while we have learned judges, who Incorporate all three of th branches of government in them selves.

Cape Water Says There'll Boom be a I. aw Mnppreaaine Hot galerataa BUeaHs-3adse inthrie EaAtnci the Ordinance. The city council's ordinance to keep children under 16 years of age off the streets of Topeka after 9 p. m., "the eave-the-children ordinance" aa it- Is called, is provoking some adverse critic ism and also some favorable comment on the streets. The lawyers, whose profession it is to wrestle with questions involving legality and constitutionality agree that the "child saving" ordinance is not backed by the law. They say that the city council has no right to legislate outside of the juris diction given it by the city charter; and the charter says nothing about keeping children indoors after 9 o'clock. A Journal reporter talked to a num ber of citizens about the ordinance today and the following were among the opin ions he was given: G. C. Clemens "A child under 16 years of age is just as much a citizen of the republic as one over 21. The su preme court of Illinois knocked out the state reformatory on this very proposi tion, and the chief justice held ia hand ing d v.vn bis decision that a person un der ltf had the same legal rights and privileges as matured persons. There is no getting around the fact that boys 12, 14 or 16 years old can go on the streets whenever they want, if their older broth ers can. If the police can keep boys off the street, they could enforce a law to keep all persons under 90 years of age off Kansas avenue after supper time." Joseph G. Waters said "It is humbug; there are not enough of poor parents or bad children in the city to justify such a measure. It is worthy of the witchcraft days in Salem. But I don't care. Let them follow it up with prohibiting Sun day journeying and eating hot ealeratua biscuits." Superintendent William Davidson-"I live in a part of town where we are not troubled much with bad boys. I have no doubt though that there are prts of town where the neighbors need just such pro tection. Perhaps the policemen need protection. In Chicago once I watched a crowd of about forty boys 'guy' a police man until life to him was a burden. Per haps this is the reason the police asked for the ordinance. I imagine there are some boys it would be well to keep at home after 9 o'clock." W. A. S. Bird "I doubt the legality of the ordinance, because I can't see where it is backed by any state law or constitu tional provision. The only people the police have a right to keep off the streets are disreputable persons. If the ordin ance is going to be enforced at all I would like to see it apply to about half the male population in town, and not let more than five men be in any one block on Kansas avenue after 10 o'clock." S. B. Isenhart "If the ordinance can be enforced, the "police can keep any man or woman off the avenue; and if they can do that they can banish a man from the state for a term of years. The czar of Russia is the only person who could enforce such a regulation at that. As I understand it the ordinance doe3 not make any exception in the case of children accompanied by their parents. It won't be safe to wheel a baby carriage up town after supper. The police may arrest the- baby and confiscate the car riage, and fine the parents. It will amuse me to see how high the ordinance will be knocked, if any effort is ever made to enforce it." Joseph Reed observed: "If I had a boy 16 years old that wasn't capable of taking care of himself after dark I would disown him. Such a boy isn't worth the clothes on his back when he is in swimming. If they can keep boys under 16 years old off the street they can make it apply to anybody under the age of Methuselah." Judge John Guthrie: "I haven't given the legality of the ordinance any thought, but I don't know but that the spirit of the ordinance is commendable. The boys are going to run the nation and we don't want them to become rowdies or hoodlums. If the parents haven't got sense enough to keep them off the street the police ought to. THE ELKS.

Herbert Welsh Is Active In Civil Service mud Indian Reform. Herbert Welsh, president of the Civil Service Reform association of Pennsyl vania and for a long time secretary of the Indian Rights association, which has its headquarters in Philadelphia, is a eon of the late John Welsh, who was one of the most eminent of the Quaker City's public spirited men. John Welsh will best be remembered by the world at large perhaps as the president of the board of finance of the Centennial ex position and the United States minister to England through whom the $5,500, 000 awarded to the British government by the Halifax fish commission was paid. Bat Philadelphia has other and numer ous remembrances of him, not the least of which was his donation of $50,000, presented to him by his fellow citizens as a mark of their appreciation of his efforts for the success of the Centennial, to found the John Welsh chair of Eng- .IK'S HERBERT WELSH. lish literature in the tJniversity of Penn sylvania, of which institution he was otherwise a liberal patron and had long been a trustee. Anything of a humanitarian or benev olent nature was sure to appeal success fully to the sympathies and assistance of John Welsh. He was chairman of the executive committee of the great sanitary fair held in Philadelphia in 1864, which raised $1,500, 000 in money and supplies for the soldiers and sailors in the United States service, and was a leader in all movements having for their object the promotion of the public wel fare. It is not at all wonderful that the attention of the son of such a father should be turned toward philanthropic enterprises and reformatory movements such as those with which Herbert Welsh has identified himself. Born in Philadelphia Dec. 4, 1851, Herbert Welsh, after a thorough pre liminary training, entered the Univer sity of Pennsylvania, from which he graduated in 1871. He then spent two years in Paris studying art and on his return to the United States made a tour of the west in company with Henry S. Pancoast, the ultimate result of which was the foundation of the Indian Rights association. His high ideals of citizen ship led him into the civil service re form movement, and even those who have no sympathy with his ideas cannot help respecting his motives. WILLIE WILDE'S MARRIAGE It Is a Matter of Interest to American and English Gossips. Dashing William C. K- Wilde, com monly known as Willie Wilde, former husband of Mrs. Frank Leslie and broth er of Oscar Wilde, the one time famous aesthete, has again entered the ranks of the Benedicts. Miss Sophie Lees of Lon don, the lady who has succumbed to Mr. Wilde's fascinations, is reported to be young, beautiful and an heiress. Mr. Wilde evidently is satisfied that mar riage is not a failure, notwithstanding his previota matrimonial venture. In deed Willie Wilde, literary man, bar rister nd man about town, had been considered a confirmed bachelor until his marriage with Mrs. Leslie in Octo ber, 1891, and that so experienced and discerning a man should so emphatical ly declare in favor of wedded bliss should give heart of grace to others of that ilk to renounce single blessedness. WTT.UK WILDE. Mrs. Wilde is several years the junior of her husband and comes of an old Irish family. Her father is secretary of the board of trade of Dublin, and her moth er ia a member of the Rowley family, descended from the famous Admiral Itowley. She is well known in artistic and literary circles in London and popu lar in a social way and is a frequent contributor to the journal The Queen. Willie is at present engaged in prepar ing to publish a volume of poems, many of which, he says, were written durir his college days at Trinity, and in f nishing dramatic criticisms to The G tlewoman.

TOPEKA MEH OS THE COIEYITES. Several Think the Movement Per. tends Bevlatla, Others That It WUlDieOat t Topeka people talk about the Coxey movement wherever and whenever they meet. The views of the residents of the cap ital of Kansas are widely different, as is shown by what was said by the following people in different walks of life who were seen by a Statk Journal reporter: General Manager J. J. Frey of i the Santa Fe said: "This is one of those things we can't tell anything about as far as the outcome is concerned. It may re sult in nothing serious and yet we can't tell what may happen. My idea is that the newspapers have given this whole move ment too much prominence from the start. If the papers had let it alone it wouldn't have amounted to anything. I don't want to criticise the newspapers though, for I understand their business is to print the news and let the people know what is happening." Dr. S. E. Shelion said: "This is a se rious question, and I think it means rev olution. It means blood. The- govern ment with the little standing army will not be able to cope with this vast army. The question to my mind is where is the south to be considered in this movement. I have not heard that there is any of this uprising in the south. When the clash of arms comes, where will the south be found? Will the south take the side of the government, or will it be with the Coxey men?" Judge J. B. Johnson, of the circuit court, and master in chancery of the United States court for the Santa Fe, said: "It ia a bad thing. They talk about this being a living petition with boots on; something that can not be put in the waste basket, but as a matter of fact it is nothing les3 than a revolutionary uprising. Every man in the entire movement talks about turning down our present social condi tions. This is nothing less than revolu tion. The American people will only stand about so much of this thing and then there will be trouble. It makes no difference whether these men are right in their ideas or not, the question is, shall our government be overrun by a lot of tramps and cut throats. There probably are some good men in the move ment, but all the thieves and highway men in the country will also be found with them. They will be attracted to it as naturally as ducks will to a pond of water." Lawyer E. A. Austin said: "This looks more and more like a resolution. This proves to me what I have been thinking for some time; that every year we are being- drawn nearer and nearer to a socialistic form of government. No mat ter how much we may be opposed to it. If the people coming to the front as leaders are cranks, and they are cranks sure enough, we are growing nearer to this socialistic condition of government." A prominent Santa Fe employe, high up on the salary list who works at the shops did not want to be quoted but he said: "I believe this thing is the result of 'bad legislation. There may be some worthless scoundrels in the movement, but there is no doubt in my mind but that ths majority of the men are honest citi zens thrown out of work by the condi tions surrounding them. I am not able to guess what the result will be but it will show congress that the laboring men in this country are not all happy in the present condition of government. The first thing congress should do is to restrict foreign immigration." Monte Wells, a Banta Fe switchman, said: "The thing seems all in the dark to me. I don't see just what they expect to da They can't help the poor man much the way they have started out. They make expenses instead of saving them. The 'good roads' idea won't help the poor mn much. The rich farmer will get the benefit of it and the poor farmer will have to pay for it I can't see much sense in it myself. No, I don't think the railroad men are much struck on the idea. At least not those who are work ing." Wm. Green of Green Kale said: "I don't understand how this movement can do any good yet. I don't see that it will bring about any great disaster. It will no doubt open the eyes of the mem bers of congress to their own activity. The men have a right to march to Wash ington if they want to and should not be interrupted as long as they behave them selves." General Attorney M. A. Low of the Rock Island said: "This thing will die out. Entirely too much importance has been attached to it. They have a right to go to Washington if they want to and if they can find a way to get there." Captain J. G. Waters said: "Canada Bill was accustomed to assert that a fresh sucker was born every minute. Were he now alive he would say four. If John Firey were to take a position on the car tracks at the junction of Fourth street and the avenue, as late as 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and look as wise as he could with some sort of a serious, scared expression on his face, and solemnly an nounce that he was the Savior, it would not be early supper time before he would have 12 apostles, would have taken up a collection, and would have some fe male at his heels, presumptious enough to play the part of a second Mary Mag dalene. The Ccxey movement may be preceded by a banner, but it it not patriotic It is not patriotism to demand bread and free rides by force of numbers; nor to squat a multitude at the door of congress and compel, by intimidation, the enactment of laws by the presence and power of an invading army. The Ameri can people are often interested and amused by the outre, the spectacular and the novel, but the American people are not in this movement. It is not every mosquito that compels a sleeping giant to rub his nose or turn in bed. It" is a palpable menace to good order for or ganized bodies of men to move through the country, exacting subsistence that is given to get rid of their presence. I am a man of the people, in sympathy with their distresses, and their misery I try to make my own, but much as I dislike the conduct of Mr. Cleveland and con gress, they are my president and my representatives, and 'the force that threatens or Intimidates them ia a species of revolution, that will be throt tled a3 soon a9 perceived." A. C Sherman of Rossville, represent ative of the northern legislative district of Shawnee county, said: "This thing looks serious to me. When these men go to Washington, and after the com missary department gets tired feeding them, as they surely will, and the men get hungry, there is sure to be trouble. When a big body of hungry men get together, there is no telling what will be done. I think congress ought to adjourn and go home. Not so much on account of the Coxey fellows as because I don't see that they are doing any good by Staying there. I have not heard of any thing of any importance to the nation at large being done since congress has been In session. They ought to adjourn." T. V. Coddington, the well known con tractor, said: "This thing looks bad. It looks like we were going to have trou ble. I'll tell you what ought to be done. Congress ought to manage in some way to get this country into trouble with some foreign country .and let us have war. Let congress annex Canada or Mexico, either one would make things interesting, and then these unemployed men in Coxey'a army could be given em ployment. Andy Fuller wants to put these men in the army, but I want them to have something to do after they get into the army." J. M. Keener, carpenter, said: This is a bad lay out; it means trouble. I am a plain wood butcher and don't pay much attention to politics, but I like what that Colorado senator said yesterday about stopping this kind of a thing and giving every man a right to work who wants to work." T. B. Brown, foreman of the state printing office composing room, said: "To condemn the movement would be to condemn the constitutional right of ap peal, and yet I do not altogether approve of the Coxey method of appeal. The movement is the result of the condition of the times. The times are out of joint and will remain out of joint until the cit izen of one political faith concedes that the citizen of opposite political faith is just as honest as he is. The widespread distrust and suspicion that just now hangs over all this country can, I think, be directly traced to the apparently growing tendency of politicians to place the welfare of the party above the wel fare of the nation. Honest politics would never breed Coxeyites. AN ABLE REPLY. Dr. Aldenon Administers a Sharp Z.aab. int to Prof. Hopkins. To the Editor of the State Journal. Sir Mr. George E. Hopkins made a fierce and uncalled for attack on me in your paper of yesterday. It is not the first time he has assailed clergymen who have differed with" him in his views of art. Perhaps this may have something to do with the languishing condition of the school over which he has the honor to preside. Permit me in reply to say: 1. That in last Sunday night's sermon I made no reference whatever to art. 2. "That humanity If not decency would put overcoats on the figures on the peristyle," I deny having ever at any time made such a statement. 3. My sermon on the World's Fair was preached last falL What I am reported to have said about the nude figures in Li brary hall was uttered last winter. Prof. Hopkins is late in the day rushing into print I am not surprised that your edi torial preface should try to bring him up to date and lay them on "last Sunday night's sermon." 4. Prof. Hopkins has been attending church since these things were said, and his withdrawal is so recent that it had not been discovered. 5. Prof. Hopkins says that Christ said to naked children: "Suffer the little chil dren to come unto me." This will be news to bible readers. The children of Israel were a dressed people, and their extravagance in this direction was often condemned by the prophets. Can the professor point us to a single naked Jew ish and bible character? 6. In what I said about the World's fair exhibit I distinctly disclaimed the posi tion of an art critic. I was disappointed in not finding a larger number of great, elevating, inspiring pictures. Such pic tures are too valuable to be taken from their resting places and exposed to all the rlsk-of transportation and a six months exhibit 7. The last straw on the camel's back seems to be what I am reported to have said about the nude statuary in Library hall. That report has grown. The re mark was made in a meeting of the min isterial union, where a number of the city clergy are in the habit of assembling for private conference and acquaint ance. These meetings are not intended for the public, and the unpleasant pub licity that is given to them is slowly de stroying them, as some of the leading pastors have ceased to attend. It is re ported that I will not allow my family to go into Library hall. That is absolutely untrue. 1 say now what I said in the ministerial union, if those figures were removed to the rear part of the room they would not be so objectionable. Prof. Hopkins thinks all who go into the hall must endorse their presence and po sition near the stage. Let the professor move them into any of our churches in this city and stand them on the pulpit platform, and there would be such a moving protest and moving congregation as would indicate how many persons feel. I often go to Library hall and enjoy the privileges that are there offered. It is a credit and honor to our city, in which I as a citizen take great pride, and I extend to the or ganization and the managers my hearty appreciation and co-operation in the re fining work which they are aiming to do. The influence of that building upon our community ia untold. 8. He nays: "I do not see how you can consistently bring me before the session for expulsion." Such a thing has never been thought of. This is a dire artistic idea without the shadow of a reality. If he wishes to leave the church he will go out as others do, and he knows where to get his letter. Prof. Hopkins admitted to me last evening that many art students are led into temptation and ruin by the nude In art. Respectfully yours, S. B. Aiderbon.

The Wounded Man Uet Away in the i'arkneas Another' Man. Caught Who Say lie is Innocent. At about 11 o'clock last night a gang of tramps broke into a Rock Island freight car on the "Y" near the bridge. One of the men was captured aDd an other severely wounded, but escaped. Officers Watts and Holloway, who were recently elected special police were near the Rock Island tracks where they noticed persons moving about a freight car. As they approached the men jumped out of the car and ran in all directions. One man carried a large box taken from the car. Wafts shouted "halt!" to the man carrying the box. He did not stop and Watts thereupon shot point blank at him. Ue was only a few feet distant from him. The man kept on running and again the policeman fired. This time the man fell with the box on top of him. Another man rose up from from the ground near by and Watts covered him with his revolver The man promptly threw up his hands. When the officer came to look for the wounded man he was gone and could not be found. Officer Holloway all this time was en gaged on the other side of the car. Three or four of the men ran down in front of him and he shot several shots at them but they escaped probably unhurt. The man who was captured gave his name as Richard Preston. He says he is from Iowa and has been in the city about a week. He said: "So help me God, I don't know a thing about this. I thought the men at the car were rail road men. They had a lantern. I was sitting on the ties and the first thing I knew, the officers began shooting and a man dropped a box at my feet. I was scared and I said 'Don't shoot,' but I don't know a thing about it." Word was received from fc'horey today that tramps had tried to get a sick man into a box car of a train east bound, but had not succeeded. It was said that the sick man was left by hi3 comrades lying by the side of the track, and the other men boarded the train. The men were captured on the train at Holton, and are being, held at that place. Captain Gish, accompanied by Hollo way and North, went to Shorey and made a thorough search, but no trace of the wounded man was discovered. Where the shooting took place several small pools of blood were found. 'J he box taken from the car was taken to the police station. It contains shoes. The address on the box is: "A. B.

American Agriculturist. THE MARKETING CARD. It Senders Tlouaetiold Pntlei Lighte to Mistress and Maid. Have you ever added to your kitchen furnish ing-s a "marketing- card?" It is a most convenient little affair, and no housewife who has owned one will ever be without it. Whether you do your own work or eng-ag-e the services of a maid the marketing- card will baa great help in keeping- in mind tha nec essary pantry stores. A Boston cooking--school originated the idea of the card. It. consists of a lig-ht wood frame provided with slips of wood, upon which are marked the names of different housekeeping- stores, such as tea, coffee, sug-ar, soap, starch, bluing-, spices, etc. Slots are arrang-ed into which the wooden slips can be moved, showing up plainly ag-ainst the light back ground. This plan' is most successful in maintaining a well-filled larder, for when a particular supply g-ives out the mistress of affairs has only to slip into its place the correct bit of wood, which serves as a reminder of something needed that mig-lit otherwise be for gotten when the grocery order is given. With a little ing-enuity a marketiug card may easily be made at home. Try it once. Golden Days. The Latest in Umbrellas. In women's umbrellas black is fast disappearing-, giving- place to colors, and chang-eable ones at that. When first they beg-an to come in they were predicted a fad, but that is proved an error, and red, blue, green and brown are staple colors for umbrellas, and no one need fear fretting- one on the score that next season it will be passe. If two tones are in an umbrella which is one of the smart styles one is usually black, and that ia the only appearance of the latter save for mourning-. The latest color is green a dark shade, let it be understood, none of them are brilliant to any degree, and a shade of brown dubbed "tobac co" is quite one of the most chic. Suit ability, and the g-eneral fitness of things have led to umbrellas with han dles that' have some reference to the shade of silk. Strawberry Shortcake Make the doug-h as usual. Instead of rolling- out and placing- on flat tins to bake, roll and then cut out with a large-size biscuit cutter or coffee cup, placing- one on another and buttering between as you would the large cakes. When done, have the berries lightly crushed and sugared, pull apart the little cakes, laying the lower halves on a platter, butter and cover with the strawberries, then put on the top. parts. Iay some of the finest berries on the tops of the cakes and sprinkle with sugar. Whipped cream poured over just before serving makes a handsome addition to looks and taste. Recipe foe Weaselrode Pudding. One quart of milk and cream (mixed), one-half pound of sngar, the yolks of four eggs, one ounce each of powdered sweet almonds, preserved cherries and preserved currants, and one pound of preserved peaches. Beat the yolks of the eggs, add the sugar and almonds, and the mixed cream and milk; boil until thick. Remove from the fire, and when cold freeze. Wh?n frozen, remove the dasher and stir in the pre served fruit. Mix well and let stand for two bours. dot Water for Braises.

HOME DRESS AND TEA GOWN. The g-o-wn shown on the right is of heliotrope and -white percale, -with a wide flat band of polka dotted percale, which is also heliotrope and white.

During the last 20 years in England there were 4,872,000 marriages and to, OS 7 divorces. In almost every ootmtry the greater namSer of divorces is granted at tha pe tition of the wife. A. Virginia wifa was set free because "'the defendant does no; come home an til 10 p. m. and then keeps this plaintiff awake talking." A. Tennessee coar liberated i wife because "the -l-:fen.iant does uofc wash himseif, thereby causing the plaintiff grea; mental anguish.' In Kentucky a divorce was once granted beca-ase "the defsndant came into th bedroom the morning after he marriage and beat thi3 plaintiff on th9 head with her shoe heeL The Emperor Tiberiu3 inada an edicS agains1; the marriage of men over 550 and women over 50, but so strenuous were the objections of widows and wid owers that the law was soon repealed. If awife inlndia is abandoned by her husband, she waits eight years if he has gone on a pilgrimage, six if he went to study and three if he traveled for pleas ure, and then is legally divorced and may remarry at her pleasure. Some states forbid marriage between whites and full blooded negroes or In dians. Others legalize marriage between whites and octoroons. In one or two no degree is mentioned, but marriage is forbidden between a white man or wom an and a "person of color to be percep tible to the eye." St. Louis Globe Democrat. THE PROPER CAPER. Physicians declare that the spotted veils are making the oculists rich, so much do they injure the sight. A new reversible silk shows mauve ground with a pale green spot on one side and a violet one on the other. There are no surprising novelties in parasols this year. Lace is omnipres ent, and where it is absent there chiffon is found. Some costly French capes exhibited have yokes and collarettes of gold and black net dotted all over with spangles and sequins. Fancy novelties in "summer velvet" have colored spots on pna side and show up well when combined with black or dark green satin. The silky French and India -jashmeres are regaining their place in fashionable favor, which they lost when dull sur face, shaggy textiles became so popular. Some of the new dress coats are mada of exceedingly rich and very gay color ed brocade. One of the choice models is the Princess Olga, significant of its Rus sian origin. The most salient feature of the nev? "sensible dress" model i3 that it es capes the ground by a good five inches, which are three too many to the average feminine mind. Some of the half girdles of velvet ot satin on the fronts of French evening bodices are brought to a sharp point in the middle and finished at the right side, a little toward the back, with a tiny vandyked mouchoir pocket of a fabric like the girdle.

Small medicine cup3 of glass have silver covers with handles. These cov ers are a good idea. Much attention is paid to curving clasps, sides and borders. Those with ribbons drawn through them are worn around the neck. New ring stands are a velvet pin cushion cup shaped and mounted like a candlestick. .The hooks for the rings hang from the outer curved border of the cushion. Just as low shoes are coming in there are the largest numbers of silver button hooks appearing. The fashion of spatts may account for these. They are impos ing articles for a dressing table.

The strike is on at last in the Twin Cities. The American Railway union this afternoon called out all its men in the employ of the Great Northern road in the two cities. Telegrams were sent to all unions on that line to stand by the union. All efforts to settle the atrike failed and President Debs of the American Railway union issued orders for a strike on all the Minnesota divisions of the Great Northern. This completes the strike from bt. Paul to the coast. President Hill of the Great Northern again proposed his plan of arbitration between the men's committee and road, but it was refused. ONLY A BLUFF. Senator Aldrlcb's Proposition to Tot at Onoe On the Tariff Bill. Washington, April 27.-The Demo crats in the senate decided to accept a proposition made by Senator Aldrich during the proceedings today to vote on the tariff bill as it came from the house at 3 o'clock today. Senator Harris after the question was put to him by Senator Aldrich as to whether a vote could be taken at that hour, immediately began a canvass of the senate and after seeing most of the Dem ocratic senators and conferring with them as to the acceptance of the proposition, decided to an nounce the willingness of the Democratic side of the chamber to take a vote at that hour. He succeeded in getting the acquiesence of all the Demo crats to allow the vote to be taken. When asked if the Republicans would stand by the proposition he had made to vote on the tariff bill today. Senator Aid rich said the proposition was made for the time only and not for the future. "I had no intention of granting an op tion," said he, "and my proposition was to the senate and not to a Democratic caucus." It therefore would seem that Senator Aldrich's surprising offer had a loop hole in it and was a bluff, and that the offer to vote at once, does not hold good as far as the Republicans are concerned, and that the tariff debate therefore will not be ended by a vote at 3 p. m. The sparring between Senators Harris and Aldrich terminated without any agreement having been reached as to when a vote shall be taken upon the tariff bill. BILL DUFFY'S HACK. It Seem to Be Attended bjr Unusual 111 Lack. Bill Duffy has had another accident with his hack. At 11 o'clock today he had a collision with motor car No. 61 at the corner of Fourth and Jefferson, and his hack was badly damaged. Duffy had a lady and two little girls in his carriage and tried to cro93 the etraet in front of the car, but was not quick enough. The lady was slightly bruised about the head. Duffy says the car was running at the rate of forty miles an hour but the spectators say the accident was Duffy's fault and that the car was stopped as quickly as possible. Duffy's hack suffered in a similar acci dent a year ago last Christmas day and the district court gave him judgment against the company for $165 damages. The j udgment has not been paid, how ever. GOT AN INFERNAL MACHINE President HcBrlde of the Mine Workers Receives One In Ills Mall. CotcMBts, O., April 26. President Mo Bride of the coal miners association, to day received by mail from Pennsylvania a suspicious looking package which he gave the police.
