Neb.) said there would be no ob jection to tue resolution today, and ex plained that the opposition yesterday contained no reflection on the senator from California (Mr. White.) Mr. Hill concurred with Mr. Mander eon, and expressed the hope that the res olution would bo passed. It wua then adopted without division. Tiia Murphy resolution declaring against further tariff, legislation, went over temporarily at the request of Mr. Guru an. Th resolution of Mr. Cray (Dem.

At the request of benator Gorman, the Gray- Maudersoii resolution was tetnpor arily laid aside, Senator Aldrich stating that ho thought a voting quorum would appear in two hours. benator V urphy then called up hi.s resolution declaring against f urtiier tariil legislation at this session. Mr. M urphy offered au amendment to his resolution declaring it to be the sense of ti e senate that no lurther tariff legis lation should be considered at this session and that it wts advisable to adjourn at the earliest possible moment.

A great deal of confusion followed the announcement, in the midst of which Mr. Liu. ha,- 'Dem. Ky.) offered a resu lutiou exprosMiig it to" be the sense of the senate th;.t congress should not ad journ until a bill had been passed reliev ing and discontinuing any duty on re fined stifar which would operate for the t euerit of the sugar trus,t. He asked for the consideration of the resolution. Mr. Manderson (Rep. Neb.) moved to amend the resolution so as to instruct the finance committee to report back the amouut of protit to be derived by the whUky tru-t from the tariff bill now in the Lands of the president. Mr. Saermtn (liep., O.) took the floor to indulge, i.s he sy.id. in some "plain talk." He reviewed the blunders made by th Democrats in general conduct of the long tariff right. The result of the blunders in ditail, Mr. Sherman eaid, was that from li.'ty to a hundred very im portant errors would be found in the bill as it would bo signed by the president Already Eevernl of great importance have been discovered. One of them,that prov.dmg for the free entry of alcohol usd in the arts, would if not corrected cost the government 20 or SO millions of revenue anntally. Hr. Hoar, the author of the amend- merit, Mr. Sherman asserted hf-.d not ex peeted that it would be accepted. Ho had simj ly offered it as tentative propo sition. Mr. Sherman quoted from the record in support of this etatement. M r. Sherman deprecated the contem plated conference of tii-j president with congress, but h justitiei Mr. Carlisle's letter as to the effect of the tariff bill on the revenues. Ho stated that he would if opportunity offered, vote for a straight duty on raw and refined sugar without the differential. As far as the other pof gua bills were concerned, he was opposed to placing iron ore, coal and barbel wire on the free list. Mr. Gray who followed Mr. Sherman thought no matter what the resalt of the cumin": election might be, there would not be another McKmley law. The people were tired of the scenes of the past win ter which resulted from the McKinley law. SANTA FE PAY DAY. Tb Next Payment Will Take 1'lac A u -Cu.t Ml ut 4 J: M.

Would be Discourteous to Criti cise the Administration. He Siys "Hands Off" New York Eepublican Fight. New York, Aug. 18. The Commercial-Advertiser today prints the following interview with Ex-President Harrison, at the house of Capt. Baruhoit, at Spring T a XT T "Tl...-!... Lake, N. J., Thursday: "My position is a peculiar one. It is hard for people to understand how I am situated. My lips are necessarily sealed, 60 far as criticism of this administration goes. It would be in very bad taste or form to draw comparisons between my own and Cleveland's administration. It would be highly discourteous for me to state wherein I believe this adminis tration errs. Therefore, I have uni formly refused to express any opinion, to draw any comparisons, or to criticise and shall continue that policy." "Shall you not have something to say- about the new tariff biilT" j "That is a dilferent matter. That measure is not fathered by the adminis- i tration, as I understand it, and is a legiti- mate matter for discussion. But I am not yet ready. I do not wish to speak hastily of a matter that so intimately concerns the welfare of party and coun- try aud goes to the very root of our pros- perity as a nation. "Later I shall prepare a careful anal- j ysis of the situation and shall speak to the people duriug the Indiana campaign. I shall speak two or three times, and will let the people know my views on the tar- ill question. Some things that 1 say may be worth printing." I "When will the campaign open in In- dianar" "Locally it opens very soon now. But the great battle will not begin until the j fail is well advanced." j "Do you conlidently expect Republican j successnrierer"" j "It. would be prematura to predict." j "What do vou think of the situation in i New York state?" "Afier the Indiana campaign closes, lall you return to California to resume your lectures in Stanford university?" He answered, speaking slowly, "I do not know that I shall return to Califor nia this winter. When 1 lett there it was with the understanding that I might resume my lectures this winter and then again that 1 might not. It rests with myself entirely whether I shall con- tinue my present relations with the uni- i versity or not, I have not yet made up my mind. 1 do not know how many students may be enrolled this year. I "I have not the slightest idea how the i suits ugainst the Stanford estate and the Southern Pacific may affect the finances i of the college. The institution was very prosperous last year." "N hat do you think of the condition of the country and the chance for the re turn of business prosperity r" was asked, j The general replied that he hud uot j been aide to guago the future and could i say more about business next year. j "I think that the situation in New York state demands that every man out- side of the state keep his hands off. That is what I think. Let outsiders keep their hauds off and attend to tiieir own busi- 1 ness. I don't see how anything that I or any other outsider can say in the way of encouragement can help restore harmony. All that I know about the situation I read in the papers ctnd I know that the harmony of which you ;:eak has not 3-et been secured and that the two wings of the party stiil maintain teparate organizations and are as far apart as ever. Suggestions, advice or talk of any kind from outsiders would be impertindnt and ill-advised. Of course tho result in New York this fall will have a mighty influence upon national affairs." "Since the conclusion of the Hawaiian incident removes that question from tho Held of politics, possibly you would not mind stating whether you consider tho contingency of annexation settled for all time." was suggested to Mr. Harrison. "To answer tuat question would be an assumption of superior knowledge akin to prescience," was the reply. "Hawaii is not an independent repub lic. What her future may be no man can prelict. I will say this, though Had the Hawaiian crisis come six months earlier, the result would probably have been dilferent. However," added Mr Harrison, "I do not wish to pass strict ures upon this administration. I do not wish to impugn motives." ASK RELEASE FROM JAIL.

"SuttfljWBr Joe" of Topeka "Tln Fir.t Honors mt m Lflkranworlh C a k n Walk. 'Sunflower Joe," a Topeka colored young man, won glory and prizes at the big cake walk at Leavenworth this week, and now the question is, who is Sun Sower Joe? None of the local colored celebrities ever heard of him. They say there is no one among ail the local talent that has such an alias, and the common theory is that some Topeka man gave that non de plume who don't want his name used. Suspicion rests today on a clothes brusher in a local barber shop who can put a great deal of dignity and pomp into his walk, who left town night before last without saying where he was going. The Leavenworth Standard says of the event: 'Sunflower Joe won the walk fairly and squarely and a majority of the judges gave him their decision. This met with popular approval, not a person making a kick. Sunflower Joe is a sure enough cake walKer and could make a hit anywhere. He is stylish, pleasing, nimble and graceful, doing military steps and turns in a manner that brings show ers of applause. Daisv was clearlv out j f n., r..

The United States steamer Dolphin havintr on board Secretary Herbert and family, arrived shortly after midnight from Washington and anchored oft' quarantine today. She proceeded toward the city. It is under stood that the secretary will spend a month in inspecting the navy j-ards along the coast. In order that the vision of the secre tary of the navy may not bo obscured during his "oliicial" voyage, a supply of specially prepared coke has been laid in, which is expected to make steam with out producing smoke. It costs the gov ernment $4'JU a day to make the trip, and inspect three navy yards at which no work is being done. The monthly ex penditures at the Boston navy yard, it is reported, amouut to only $70J, the same as at the Portsmouth navy yard, while at the New London navy 3-urd ilia expendi tures amount to little or nothing. AS TO WILLITS ELECTION Judge Webb Tell m Story at the FopulUt Lfaijus Meeting:. Judge W. C. Webb made an address at the Populist league last night iu which he discussed the election of 1890. He said: "I did not think at the time that Wiliits was elected, but 1 am satisfied now that the whole Populist ticket was elected and that the Republicans were seated through fraudulent returns. I went to a man who wa3 high in the councils of the party and asked him it Wiliits was not elected. He told ine that he was not and that they were only holding back the returns to get bets so that they could win back some of the money they had spent iu the election. "Maj.

PULLMAN RENTS HIGH. They Were One-Third Higher Than in Other Towns. Wages Insufficient for Bare Necessities of Life. Chicago, Aug. 18. Chairman Heath cote of. the Pullman strike commission was recalled by the strike commissioners today for further examination. Mr. lleathcote was questioned at length as to the causes of the strike and related instances of what he considered the com pany's tyranny. He said that one of tho workmen had been struck in the face by another, and that when the assaulted man attempted to prosecute his assailant he was told by his foreman to drop proceed ings or he would be discharged. The witness said that about 4,000 men struck at Pullman and that each paid $1 to the A. R. U. Mary Abbott Wood, one of the women strikers was called aud said that tho wages paid by the Pullman company were insutficieut for the bare necessities of life. "I received $1 a day she said, and paid $17.71 per month rent for one of the com pany's houses." J. B. Pierson. a resident of Pullman, was questioned as to the relative price of rents. Ho stated that the Pullman com pany's houses averaged one-third to one half higher than similar houses in tho surrounding suburbs. Piersou said that in the residence districts about Pullman rents had been materially reduced lately, but that no reduction had been made in the manufacturing towns. Miss Jane Adams, superintendent of the Hull house charitable work and a member of the board of conciliation of the civic federation was the next witness. She said that during her investigations of the strike she had found the strikers always ready to arbitrate, but that the Pullman officials did not appear dispos ed to make any effort to settle the trou ble. Miss Adams also declared that tho rents in Pullman were higher than iu other localities. F. P. McDonald, a Chicago Great Western engiueer, said that hie employ ers some times compelled him to remain on continuous duty from tiO to 72 hours without rest. He told of tho blacklisting of several of his fellow workmen and. gave a long account of the strike on his road. "I am opposed to strikes in general," said McDonald, "but when the federal government will do nothing for us and we have no weapons but the strike we must use it. If it were not for strikes the railroad men iu this country would be working for one-half the pay they are now getting." Mr. McDonald told how it was impos sible for him to obtain employment after tho Burlington strike when he was blacklisted. The company's influence was used against him, he said, even to the extent of protesting to Governor Francis of Missouri against McDonald's appointment as oil inspector at St. Jo seph, Mo. Replying to Commissioner Kernau, McDonald said he knew of no cases where striking members of the A. R. U. while abstaining from violence them selves instigated it on the part of others.

Closely fol lowing the fact that the president is very angry tjecauso tho secretary of tho treas ury sent a letter to congress protesting against the passage of the popgun tarllf bills in the senate, comes the rumor that Mr. Carlisle is to be asked to leave his place in the cabinet. It uppears, from undisputed authority, that Cleveland had hoped to force through the free coal bill. He cared for none of the others and in fact would have remained in favor of the tax on sugar, lo fit tho understanding of the trust, but he had not given up the light to get Nova Scotia coal into this country. Tho Carlisle ltter which antagonized him in that matter came to him not only as a great surprise, but also thwarted him in one of his own calculations. Then comes the report that Chairman Wilson, of the ways and means, is to be made secretary of the treasury. It la be lieved by many of the members of the committee that Wilson has been invited by the president to get ready to come into his cabinet. CLEVELAND HEVEItSEI).

Major Worth was in command' of a battalion of United States infantry at the liellevue rifle range and required hU men to engage in target practice on Sun day. Private Cedarquist spraog into national prominence by disobeying the order. He was court martialed, convict ed and sentenced to three months im prisonment. The mutter was taken up by congress, and President Cleveland commuted the term of the imprisonment and ordered Major Worth court martialed for diso beying the order of President Lincoln, issued on November 15, 1802, prohibiting unnecessary work on Sunday.

There were o.OUi) Japanese and C,0o0 Chinese engaged. The Chinese fled and took shelter on a number of ships at Oshu 15 miles distant A uutnber of cannons were captured by the Japanese. The Japanese followed them and another was fought at Asan, seven miles from Seikan. Of-this battle no word can be received.

PLATFORMS AND CANDIDATES. Ex-Senator Reagan of Ten--, decline! to allow his name to go before the raceat Democratic 6tata convention as a cau li date ior the govemship bee u-m the platiorrn did not declare for the free coinage oi silver at the 10 to 1 ratio. The iree coiuag resolution was def eated by a very narrow margin, but there were too many federal otlice holders in the con vention and ths undoubtod vvdl of the Democrats of Texas was overridlen. It is not a common thing in these days for a L:an to decline a nomination on ac count of anything that may or may not be in his party's platform, especially when a nomination is equivalent to an election as is tte casa with the Demo cratic nominees iu Texas. Senator Mar tin in lUi-i declined a nomination for g vern r of Kansas after it had been tendered hm unanimously, becauss the platform was not to his liking and possibly thereby missed being governor, though it is improbable t-tat any Dato crai could have beau elected except Gjo. W. Glick. In lbdO, when Jerr; S:mpo:t was nom inated for congressman from lha "b;g Seventh" the platform faded to ci'et his approval, but h: d.d not decline to make the race; he made the craven ion change it.

I'rom Obscarity i4 Poverty to Great Wealth Senator bmitb. of 2imw Jersey and His Strong Points Senator Call and the Ketarniti Dourd, Speeta.1 CorresiKJndence. Washinqtoot, Aug. 16. "Whoever meets Senator Brice cf Ohio, who haa been so prominent during this year's session of congress, receives the dis tinct impression that the senator is a remarkably well dressed man. His clothes alvfays fit him to perfection and ero of the latest style. Hi3 hats are of the shiniest, and the curl of their brima is ever modeled upon the latest dictates cf fashion regarding hetidgear, and hi3 tKX,ta aro of patent leather and glossy to 8 degree, reflecting nearby objecta with tLe accuracy of a curved mirror. Briee Then and Now, It seems dilTlcnli, even to those who have known the senator for many years, to realize that this man, entirely up to date in his attire, used, so late as 14 years ago, to habitually go about with his pantrtloons iri Ids boots, atlouch hat pulled ovt;r Lis steel bine ejes and very often with mud splashes displayed lib erally upon his garments. And yet iu IS SO, when he was railroad building, Calvin S. Brice was noted in Colum bus for the '"plentiful" lack of atten tion given to his clothing. Some of hia railroad operations were successful to a degree, but not all of them. It ia Ftated that v.'hen he had finished hia woTk on tLe Ohio Central he owed Char ley Foster, vrith whom he had soma kind of a business arrangement, $115, 000. Foster did not lose confidence in Mr. Brice, however, anl together they ran a branch from tho Ohio Central into the Sunday Creek valley coalfields. This branch was very profitable, and out of what ho made from it Brice was enabled to repay JTo.'iter the 1 1 5, 000 and have a surplus of $115,000 besides. It EEKATOIt SMITH OF KEW JEBSET. was after this that ha got tp the Nickel Plata scheme, out of which he and his friends made 13,000,000. His subse qneut career is well known of all men. Before ho began to build railroads he was a country lawyer, with a practice rather below that of most rural legal lights. Brice was the son of a Methodist preacher, whose salary was, of co-.rse, not a large one. Tho clergyman was economical, however, and Lad an in tense desire that Caivin S. should re ceive the training that is furnished by the schools. Accordingly tho young man was sent to the Miami university, where, although the expe nses as compared with the expenses cf college students of the present day at some of our largo institu tions of learning were insignificant, the young man found it hard to make both ends meet. There is a story that he was anxious to becomo a member of tho D. K. E. fraternity, which was by all odds the swellest among the students there. II: .5 wish to join was fully reciprocated by those already members with one ex ception. This youngster said nothing at all about the matter. Accordingly Brice's namo was proposed, and to the surprise of every ono he was blackballed. It is a rule of the D. K. E. that ono blackball shall bar memlversbip, and ordinarily tho presence of the prohibit ive littie pclle-c ia the ballot box settled the matter definitely, but in this case it did nor. Price was a general favorite with his fedlow students, and the entire society wr.is nulled with a wave of indig nation. It was decided to 2nd on: who Lad cast the blackball, and this was i. ot a hard matter, for every member but ono was outspoken in his expres sions of surprise and anger over the turn aii'airs had taken. Tho offender turned out to bo a chap named Fisk, who, when charged with casting the ball, ac knowledged that ha had done so. He said he had rcthing against Brico per sonally excepting that the latter was a poor young fellow and could not there fore probably possess the instincts of a gentleman. Fisk was thereupon inform ed by an indignant, self organized com mittee that the question had harrowed Itself down to one cf preference between him and Brice, and that if the ir.tter we-e again blackballed he (Fi-k) would Eurely be expelled. Then another elec tion was held, and Brice was trium phantly admitted. The Junior Senator From New Jcpwt, It has not often occurred in the his tory of the United Stateo senate that the newly elected members of that body Lave been so prominent as they Lave during the past summer. One of those who have come most decidedly to the front is James Smith, Jr., the junior renator from New Jersey. Mr. Smith is a largo man, with a calm but twin kling eye and a smile that is sure to im press one who meets him with the no tion that the senator has in his posses fion a large fund of good humor and a well defined and not altogether mis placed confidence in himself. One of Mr. Smith's strongest points is Lis almost, never failing suavity and his power to impress the man with whom ha ia talking with a confidence lie ii i- V l tains, by means of timely and thoroughly tested improve ments, its unquestioned pre-eminence as the Standard Writing-machine Simple, Practical, Durable, Easy to Learn and Operate. 5ND FOR CATALOGUE- WYCK0FF, SEAMAKS BENEDICT, 32T Broadway, Kct Ycri.

To riewspaper correspondenta he haa been, according to my own experience at least, ever courteous and ever obliging, yet he dots not find it difficult, if he thinks the facts call for such actiou, to withhold from tho newspaper man knowi juge of the circumstances the lat ter is seeking. He has a way also of preventing the publication of matters concerning which he believes the seeker after news haa already seme knowledge by telling him frankly the whols story, or what seems to be such, aud then say ing: "This is, cf course, for your own ear only. I have the utmost confluence that you would not say anything iu your pa per that would personally embarrass me. This assurance is always accompanied by a warm hand clasp and the pleasaut est of smiles. It is needless to say that sometimes this plan, which is not en tirely peculiar to Mr. Smith, has fail ed to work. At his home in Newark Senator Smith lives in excellent stylo. He has made a good deal of money out cf contracts of one kind and mother, and his aristo cratic cut stone rosidence faces the most fashionable square in the city. From his windows the eye may wander rest fully over the velvety gioen of a well kept little park, which is shaded with giant trees that have been growing since an early date in the history of the city, which is a very old one. Inside tho house seems to have been arranged with especial reference to the fact that it3 owner is a man of position and influence in the political liiu of his city and state. To the right of the main entrance there is a little anteroom, where callers who aro expected and who will shortly be seen by the senator are seated by the deft handed woman serv ant v. ho admits them. To the left is a large room reserved for those who aro not so welcome and who may expect once they aro shown into this Tipartment to bo kept until all those in the smaller rocm have been disposed of. When it is understood in Newark that the senator ia Lome from Washington, both these rooms and oftentimes the i!o foot din-ing- room at the rear of the hou-'e are filled with callers all do.y long. During the first part cf tho day tho senator usu ally sends from his study on the second floor to thoso who aro waiting on the grcurd Moor, and their conferences with him are held above stairs. Later in the dny, when the crowd has increased and the senator has become somewhat, tired, he is apt to descend to the ground floor. A Sto.7 About Senator Call. Some gentlemen who v'ere sitting in the lobby of one of the best known ho tels the other night fell into s. reminis cent mood, and the stories told includ ed this about Senator Call of Florida: It was in 1876. The returning board was considering the question of award ing the electoral vote of the state. One of the members of tLo board was Sam uel B. Mackiin. The diy after the de cision was made in favor of the Repub lican presidential candidate Mackiin asked a friend of his named Morris to go driving with him. Mackiin seemed strangely excited, and Morris agreed tr go providing he should be allowed b. handle the reins. This was agreed to ani as the two drove alorg thcy go into an animated dfscussicn of the ac tion of the board. While this was at it height they passed the residence o" Wilkinson Call. A little farther oj they were passed by Call, who hat" started out in a buggy. Mackiin imme diately stopped his defense of his actio! as a member of the board and declarer, to Morris as Call passed them: "I mean to kill that man. If there is a man in the world I hate, he is the j one." I or a moment Morris thought noth ing of Li3 companion's words, bat sud denly Mackiin turned, drew Lis pistol" hastily from his hip pocket, pointed the 1 weapon at Call's carriage and fired. Fortunately Morris regained his pres- ence of mind. He seizod the reins tight er with one hand, while with the other he struck the hand containing Macklin's pistol, and talked to the horse, which was frightened by the report of the pis tol, ia such a way that CalL who was IiilllIL.OiLi Wtfii mslMTiBlt'i"' ffiai makes no pretensions that are not supported by its record; advances no claims that the actual performance of each and every machine manufact- ured will not justify varies not from one uniform standard of excellence in construction; and therefore main Jaw not hurt, si ould think that Mackiin had shot at something along the road side. Call evidently understood it so, for he merely turned his head a:d drove on, acd it was fully 15 years before h knew that Maoklin had ever tried to kill him. The latter has low been dead for some time. Itememberine Morton. The talk which comes from New York state concerning the probat le norn ination of ex-Vice President Morton lo governor there recalls to many here th;:' gentleman's quiet personality. As every one knows, the ioe presi dent's is practically tm ofiice of exceed ingly little weight, and if he have influence at all it must be by virtue oi his personal force and not because c any official power. Yet no olucial in Washington is ever more besought for favors by place seekers than the man who holds the second post of the gov ernment. Mr. Morton was no exception to this rule, and while he kew that by the side of a senator from one of the minor states or of a congressman from one of the most sparsely populated dis tricts his power was practically noth ing he used to give patient and courte ous attention to every one who wrote to him or came to &ee him. More than that, it was his custom to do all he could in the departments for his friend?. He never pressed his claims unpleasant ly, he never seemed to feel that he had any claims, but Le would go from de partment to department as if his entire futuro depended upon it with the appli cation of any one whom he knew to be deserving and explain the situation, al-w-fy adding when he had finished, "I do nr,i ask for an appointment, but if there is anything I am sure this man would be satisfactory." In this way Air. Morton probably secured more ap pointments than any ether vice presi dent cf recent jxars. i r MARenALL. NORTH TOi'dlCA..

Meade then urged his hearers to vo.c lor Morr.ll and redeem the state, and after thanking his hearers for their profound ttiience during his speech eat down aci d lajgtiier and cheers. J. G. Wool, who ia the Ropublican caud.aate IwS pryt.a.e judge, vai the. next speaker ari l was greeted with ap plause. He said: "We live in d age when men are led to be persuaded by misrepresentation and falsehood. "The Populists are urged to make au aggressive campaign and to abuse the Republ.cans.

What have they done? Their recently helped pass seuaie bill will increase the su-ar that the la boring man buys two cents a pouud.

And yet all t.u Populists in cotigress voted for that bill, li has al ready reduced the wages of glass blowers in Pennsylvania 6J per ceut. These are the Ir.eudi of the laboring people. "Dowu in Harper county the Populists have elected a district judge th it never was a lawyer. Judge ci.ay. 'I he re sult is that you can't get a mort gage foreslosure suit tr.ed ia that dis trict. When the court comes to the fore closure suits it adjouras and they are never tried. What is the result of this? You cau't borrow a dollar on real estate in that district under aoy Circumstances. "What else cou.d you expect iu a state the governor of w hich wi.l stand up ou a platform and declare t.iat he is an an archist, that Abraham Lincoln was an anarchist, and that Chriat was an an archist? Are people fljcking into ian sas t j invest their money under this state of affairs? .Not much. "A western Kansas man recently went i to New York city, aud s epping at a big hotel registered himself in big proud let i ters as "Iroia Kansas.' A New Yortter standing uear looked at the register and exclaimed to the clerk, "Why here's a fool from Kansas." That's the kind of a reputation weVe got away from home, aud the Populists have giveu it to us. Do w e iuteud to keep them ia pow er? (Cries of "No, no.") "More of the money of the state is ly ing in the banks thau ever before. V by? Because the people are alraid lo take it out and invest it, and the banks are afraid to loan it under the present Populist state of affairs. It was never that way when the Republicans were iu power. This state is the outgrowth of Republi can principles. Hut tiungs are changed now. The Pops are in power. If D ivid Overmyer sliould be elected goveruor we would uot be so d.sgraced. "Ihe 1'opuiists have never made a proposition in their platforms thai was in the interest of the laboring man. Look at the freight rate tcneuie. Diu't you railro id men kuow that the direct result of that would be tj either reduce your wages or throw you out oT work. The railroads are not making money enough to pay their employes now. Many of them are iu the hands of the courts, aud the courts are doing the best they can for the employes. Uud -r a re ceivership the employes of a road must be paid before miybody else in paid. "Even the S .nia Fe road of w hich we are all so proud is iu the hands of re ceivers aud has made no money for years. Its treasurer, Edward Wilder, whom we all know is an honest man and a man with a hear toIJ me nearly two years ago that the ruad had a stockholder in Massachusetts to whom he used to send as his dividend $110,uOJ a year, but to whom for the live years before that he he had not sent hioi cent. 'There are widows and orphans iu New England,' sai l Mr. Wilder, aud tears ran down his face as he said it, 'whom I in duced lo invest all their money iu the road when it was paying who have not drawn a ceiit iu the iaai live years, and I don't know how they are living.' "And yet the Populists want to make the state of affairs worse. We will never surrender the state to thein; they are an archists." This was the end of Mr. Wood's speech and the meeting adj nirn -d.

Everywhere eisa t:ie Democrats are working harmou lously, but here thete are more factious than you could shake a etiek at iu fact, nearly as mativ factions tt3 there are Democrats. Senator Martin has written me a letter in w hich h.i expresses a great .leal of regret at the cond.lion of hiS parly in Toj eka, and he says further iliHt he will make it his first mission when he gets home to try to harmon.ze all the iactions aud get the couuty cam paign machinery iu good working order.

THE EIATTER HIDES DISCU33I03 Anion x Coanrllniiri and Others Pop uliats Adopt lieaolutionw Demand ing Ilrductlouat in llvtrjlhlns bat the foliee DrjjartmeDt. The occupation tax ordinance which is now being considered by the committee on licenses of the city council, is causing a great deal of talk iu opposition to it, and the old tight will undoubtedly be reuewed when the ordinance comes up for passage. The committee has taken no decided action farther than to agree that an oc cupation tax wouid be recommended to the council. The city attorney has been given in structions to draw up the ord. nance, placing tue schedules of variou-. business as they appear o;i the rejected ordiuauce, but to leave the amount ol the tax blauk. The committee will have a meeting soon to cous der the dillereut items of tax to be inserted, and this will be doue with a lead peucil so that the couucil may take action upon the tax ou each separate occupation. i he commute estimates that several thousand dollars can he Collected in this way without any one feeling ihe burden. he inemoers .-ay that with ihe l.ceu e or dinance adopted a short time ago the burden falls too heavily upon some classes while others escape the tax en tirely. Councilman Ettlinger said that twice in the last ten years had an occupation ordinance beeu submitted to the council and had been defeated both times. lie would uot express an opinion about the probable success of the uew ord. nance. The old occupation ordinance w as con sidered by the council of 1SSS and after a long d.scussion w as passed. R. L. Cof ran was then mayor and he vetoed the ordinance and it was not again called up. It taxed grocery stores and dry goods $50 annually; lumber yards $lJu; and so ou. Councilman Stephenson who is chair man of the license committee says that these provisions of the ord. nance of 1SS7 were ail unreasonable and will lie mate rially reduced before the pending ordi nance is aJouted. "Why, auctioneers were taxed 5 under the old ordinance aud most other things were proportion ately unreasonable," said he. "Would an occupation tax ordinance be const itu ioaa.?" aked a Jouksal re por er of Cou icilmau S. B. Bradford. "Yes, it can be made so," he replied. "It can be doue by placing a tax ou every business of wha.e.er nature. If, how ever, a tax was put upon grocery stores aud banks were not taxed the ordinance would not be constitutional but if every kind of business is reached ihe ordinance will stand. We do uot propose to levy a heavy occupation tax. It w ill be so small that it might be cabed merely noiuiuaL It seems to be the only way out for the city and that is why it is proposed." Councilman Griggs said: "I don't like it. The men who own the property oujbt to pay the tax. At the last meet ing the couucil voted to reduce the levy for the treueral improvemeiiL fund from six to live milts, and the increased tax would have fallen ou those who own the property. Now they propose to lax a man on his business when everything in his store has already beeu assessed for taxation. It does not .seem to me that the tax is justified." Mr. P. G. Noel says: "We have enough tax now and the people are uot ready lor any more. There is some prop erty in Topeka which is already taxed the full limit of 4 per ceut, aud now when they can uot lie re. .died any other way the council proposes an occupat.ou tax to increase the burden. An occupation tax is never a popular tax. It is never au equal tax because an or litniucj can not be made which will tax a firm according to the business done, and tue mm who is m ik ing barely enough io keep up expenses ou a small business will nave to pay as much tax as tae man wuo has au im mense store and wiio. does thousands of dollars of business every m uUh."

O FAMILY FALLING OUT Brings an Aged Coupls Into Judge El.iott'a Court. TOD OLD TO KIND THEIR AFFAIRS Their Children Quarrel About the f'ropertjr and IVaut a UuurdUn Ap pointed. Au old, old story occupied the attention of the probate court yesterday. Through the effort and ou the corn plaint of their daughter, Mrs. Virginia Stewart, whoso husband is au employe of the Santa Fe offices of this city, John A. Young and his wife. Eliza M. Young, who live on Linn creek, sixteen mile southeast of Topeka, were on trial to establish whether or not old age had so destroyed their senses that they were no longer able to manage their financial af fairs without the a.d of a guardian. They Hre aged respectively 87 aud 7(5. Capt. Joe Waters conducted the case for the complainant, Mrs. S. ewart. Mrs. Young is entirely blind. She ia a very pleasant faced old lady, and when she gave her testimony the sweetriea and decisiou of her tones toucued pleas am ly on every heart iu the room. She told it iu a clear, intelligent way, too, that convinced her hearers thai she had in her youth been a woman of worth and intelligence. At nearly the end of the trial it developed that she is the mother of M. A. Young, for many years the aud itor of the Santa Fe railroad, and a cousin of Captam Waters, who was the attoruey for the opposition ir the case. Her name was U aters before she marr.ed Young. It was Ihe story of hii aged couple who, during sixty years of their happy mar ried life, had managed through hard work and economy to save u Pule prop erty, the story of selfish children with selfish motives, who would prey upon the parental indulgence hardly due them. Mrs. Stewart claims that t he son Luther Young, who ia now living wiih the old folks, is there for the simple purpoie of inducing them to make siidi disposition of their property as shall benellt him and his family. He has been a gambler, it was alleged, aud iu his testimony he had admitted it. He hail lost positions through it and she d d not think he should be allowed to weave his influence around them in such a way that they would reach poverty iu their lim.l years. Mrs. Stewart disclaims any personal mo tives in the ease so far as she hersi-if is concerned financially und tsajs that her parents can make their will touiotrow if they so desire in any way they see tit. Several resident 1 of the Linn creek neighborhood were examined and all seemed of the opinion that the aged cou ple were not very well able to manage, their own affairs. Duriuir the entire testimony of the other witnessos .Mrs. Young seemed anxi ous to say something and it was ueces sarv to stop her a great many t ime. She had a packet of loiters tuat she desired the jury to read and that she said would show that Mrs. Stewart's husband had often suggested that she have a ifuardiau appoiu ed and that he be made that guard. an. The sou Luther occasionally leaned forward and whispered in his mother's ear. This was objected to by the court but M rs. Young tesi 1 tied 1 ha t he had simply told her uot to get excited. It was shown that the mother had bor rowed money on tho farm and ha 1 given some ol it to her son. "Whit mother would not help her son if he needed help.'" she said, "lie has doue much more for ine thau any of the other ch.idren have. Oh, 1 wish I could iell you how I have been irea ed at the hands of rs. S'eawarl and my other daughter M rs. Knox. Tney have abused me snamefully and called me names." Mr. Young is bent with age aud feeble. Ilia wife manages the ufPurs of tho house because as he said with loving pride, "she is a good aud capable woman." lie admitted that his memory is no good. .Mr. Stewart was examined and testified that he had often advised the oid folks to have a guardian appoiute I, that he thought they had not been able to attend to Iheir own alfairs for several years and that they had been losing money on the farm for a long t.me. Tills Mrs. Young herself corroborated. A large number .f letters were read mid they went t show that Stewart aud hif wife ha 1 tried to get possession of the farm, always wanting to buy or rent it, however, that they had quarrelled with the old folks, and that money had beeu borrowed ou both sides. The letters were all fr-un Stewart and his wife to the old people and were in some instance! tender and affectionate aud at others threatening and stormy. Luther Young tried to create a scnu tion by accusing hi two sisters of having stolen his marriage certificate arid Cir culating1 the siory he was not married. It didn't have the desired effect, how ever. Mrs. Y'oung said she would have no objection to the appointment of a guard ian if it would not cost too much. Tim jurv which was composed of Dr. W. F.

Walt-er Siwyer, h, professional sh-ermfm,-tys: Nobody need work at dicing worms for bait unless he is fond of the exe.rc is for they can be procured in alujost any quantity with very little labor whenever they are needed. The process is simple. Take a strong fc:i-k four or five feet long and sharp at one end, and rr to tome locality, each as the back of tbe barn, wher-3 the worms are sure to be plentiful. Drive the stick four or five inches into the ground w:th a hammer or btone, and then legin to twist it with a rotary motion. livery few minutes hit the top a rap to drive the toint further into the i-.uiad and keep on twisting. In liv- m'.nut'js t de worms will be piu to craw 1 oat of their holes, and all you have to d is to pick them up and put I htm in yoar can.

A For!j;n Critjoinjii Whicli American Wo men Sloultl Take to Heart. All Englishman remarkeel recently, with the frankness of his nation, that American women looked as if they did not wash their faces, and that they gave the impression of pushing their stomachs before Them. We may deny the first charge, but we oir.st acknowledge that there is some ground for the second. No person with ordinary powers of observation can fail to norico the way ia which many wom en carry thems-.dves in this respect, es pecially in theso days of plain skirt?, belts and shirts, a coirumo which is ad mirably c ii cnlatcd to display to th i very greatest advantage every defect and awkwardness of the human figure. !7o ffieia'.iy draj.ry hides the ugly lines and in i-iiiuy cases they are very ugly indeed. v Of ;ours.o 56 is often the fault of the zirts Whv a bad elressm r should always insist on cutting a skirt short in front and thou let it dip behind like the- tail of a bird is a mystery, but' she will do it. Now, the average woman is hoi- low in th:; back; therefore her skirfc 1 should bo cat shorter behind than be foru, and a dressmaker who makes a gown hoop up in front should be impris oned or lined. Leaving the sins of the dressmakers out of the question, how ever, the blame rests on the women thamscives. Look at them, standing about at any railroad staticn or in any shop or pub lic place, ordinary, respectable, mi. Idle class women, clad, of course, four-fifths of ihcai, in the prevailing uniform of skirt and shirt waist. They wear this regardless of shape and weight, from tha slender youiig girl to the heavy, middle aged mother of a family. A survey of them leads mo to think that the Fmglh-hmari 'va.s justified in his opinion and that the American stom ach is r. ally unduly conspicuous. Thin p.;cple ar.-i often I lie worst. One can for give a ttour, motherly looking woman l'i.r l-eiu;T iu!;;p.in!y, bat w in n it ccmes to a thin, angular girl, all bone and mns',l", thin without a pound of super fluous flesh sj;y where about her, it does seem Tmr.ee.issary, and it is. There in no need of it at all. It is just as eru.y to have a straight lino from the waist down as not to have- it. If the rdor.ehi-.vj sisters will only learn to thro.v th-; ve-i-ht of their bodies where it belongs, tltero will bo no cause for criticism. It is a great deal easier when yon get used to it to stand in the way that nature; intended than to stand with your weight resting oa your heels, yoar backbone bent all out of r-hape and your I chia slack cut at an angle of 45 de- j rrrees. That is a -groat part of the battle to keep your chin back. That rebellious chin thrown forward brings your whole body in an awkward position. Practice before your loo-king glas, stand in your j usual way and sea where a sraight line drawn from yoar head down would j come. I It en::ht to eo through the ball of the j foot. Then the stomaceh will retire into proper perspective, the chest will coma out properly, and the back will take caro of itself. It will not take many j trials to envinco you of the advantages of this in ami or of standing, and a little observation of others will show you I what yoa. ueed. Everybody knows that plain. But yet she holds herself with so much dignity that sho looks like a queen. How would sho look if she lean ed on I er spine as if it were the back of a rcrking chair, as many of us do?

A Soldier's Brave TJeed. it jr. lti N the latter part of D e o. e mb e r try a lbC2, when small detachments were scattered along the line of the railroad from Co lumbus, Ky., to Holly Springs, Miss., guarding the bridges and trestle work, the following incident r; li it ulltlwiii1 took place, which for cool courage ex ceeded anything that came to my at tention during my three years of serv ice After the capture of Holly Springs, Miss., General Forrest's cavalry made a raid northward upon the lino of rail road and captured every station be tween Jackson, Tenn., and Columbus, Ky.. except a small detachment of some seventy -five men who were guarj intr the bridge and trestle across the Obion River, about ten miles north of Jackson, Tenn. This detachment was composed of parts of Companies H and I of the 106th Illinois Infantry, and was commanded by Captain P. W. Harts, now of Springfield, Jlh, and Captain John Shockey, now of Neva da, Mo. After the attack on Jackson and the capture of Col. Ingersoll and part of the 11th Illinois Cavalry, a eletach nient of some oOO men with two pieces of artillery was sent bv Gen. Forrest against the handful of men guarding Obion bridge. The Federal guard had hastily built a rude blockhouse direct ly under the trestle, determined to make the best possible defense. Promp ly at 1 o'clock, on Dec. 2d, the station north of the river was sur rounded by some 500 rebel cavalry, who dismounted and made a desperate effort to capture the guard and de s roy the bridge and trestle, and thus break railroad communication with Jackson. Here the unequal batile raged until the middle of the after noon. The shrieking shells.and swish ing shot crashed through the heavy timber surrounding- the fort. Caj.ture seemed inevitable. Ile-enforcements could only be hoped for from Jackson. It wua decided that some one shoulil venture to leave the iort, climb the open trestle some fifteen feet nigh, and run over the ties for several hunhred yards across the trestle and bridge to secure re-inforcements. This task was solicited by Serjreant Henry Fox of Company II. Hand over hand he gained the top of the trestle aud then with a regular double quick he ran from tie to tie across this dreadful line. Tbe enemy from both sides of the road, shot at hiru, and while his clothes bore am ple evidence of th danger he had run lie was untouched. Fortunately the lire ircnu the fort wa"s too dangerous to permit the enemy to bring their ar tillery through the woods within range of te fort, and from the distance the heavy timber obstructed the siiot. The station was not captured; the bridge was saved. Reinforcements arrived at dark after the enemy had withdrawn.

JOl'S only dausrh- ter comprises the family of Mr. Peter Princeton, a re tired merchant and a widower. He is a very important man; an 1 now, as we Veh Id him, in hisd n nr-roora, awaiting the ar rival of his daughter Char i j lotte, to beg-in dinner, h'.s importance and hunger have so overmasterel him that ha is holding his evening paper upsi le down, and probably thinks ha ia reading it. 'Here. Gertrude!" he snaps out at last, addressing his serv int. "taite away the so-ip uni keep it warm. I can.-iot understand what has det inad Charlotte at her music-lesson. Bring me my boots at once. I am going to meet her." Gertrude, still tremblinr. removes the soup-tureen, and is returning with the boots, when the door-bell peals out joyously. "Tnat is Charlotte, at last!" ex claims the father, who has juat taken olf his slippers. "It is the young laly," repeats Ger trude, who, in her htista to own the door, drops the boots on her master's plate. Charlotte enters like a miniature wh.rlwind. She is small and grace ful, with laughing eyes an I fla fy hair; is 18 years old. has little feet, with archaJ insteps, an 1 pretty han Is perfectly glove 1. besides a thousand oiher charaiing details; there are dimples in her cheeks, and she has a cleai-cut little chin, and a softly rounded form. In a word, she is an aiorable little creature, a batterQv, all ribbons and lace; flowers and fur belows. "You have come at last," announces the father, ironically, as he se its hi n self at the table, and unfolds his nap kin. "Oh, papa, I was just going to tell you!" "Sit down, sit down first; you can explain while eating.and I will under stand you better then. Great heavens! I have waited long enough, already. Gertrude the soup." "But, papa, you can't think! I've had a real adventure." "An adventure?" cr'es Mr. Prince town, starting up in alarm "Yes, papa, an adventure, in the omnibus, with a young man." 'In the onrinibus, w.th a young man? Great heavens!" At this juncture Gertrude discreetly retires, in obedience to an imperious gesture from her master. "Oh, papa an aJventure with a young man who was altogether too nice, I assure you." "I would have you know, my dear, that a young man who is n!cj never has an adventure with a young la ly above all, in an omnibus. Explain yourself." "Oh, it's a trifling matter, papa, and, really, it isn't of the least ue to make such big eyes at me, and taik to me in such a voice. I ha 1 fot-gotten my pocket-book a thing that is liable to happen any day "Oh, yes. yes especially to thooa who haven't one. Goon." "I didn't d'scover it until the con ductor demanded the fare. What was 1 to do? I turned red as a p.'ony, then I felt my face pale. Happily, a3 the conductor held out his hand, a young man at my side placed a quar ter in it, and said, 'For two.' This gentleman had understood the cause of my embarrassment, and paid for me." "So, young lady, you accept a dime from an unknown man! Better a thousand times to have explained the circumstances to the conductor the driver to anybody. One does not forget one's pocket-book when going in an ocnaib.is; or, better btill, does not

For I hope you do not intend keeping it?" "But, papa. I have his card. See here: 'Mr." William Mason, No. 4 Wil low street, Melrose." The father, without waiting to har more, snatches the bit of pasteboard from the girl, and cries: "What, not content with lending you money in violation of all the pro prieties, this gentleman gives you his card besides.: lie l the settiest in- ST t go 1 if trfgner, the lowest of the low yonr young man who is altogether too nice." "Now, papa, be reasonable. To re turn the money, it was. of course, necessary to know his address." The ex-merchant finds no suitable reply to this ingenious reasoning; but with a gesture indicative of decided til-humor, throws his napkin upon the table. "I am fated not to dine to-day. Gertrude, go, engaga me a cab by the hour. I wish to return this young ad venturer his money at once, and teLl him a few plain truths besides." "Oh. papa, papa, you won't do that? It would be base ingratitude. Only think of it. This young man has ex tricated me from a very unpleasant situation." "Unpleasant situation! Let me alone! Shut up! I don t care to be lectured, especially by a rattle-brain, who loses her pocket-book." The irate parent puts on his boots and takes his cane and hat, all the w. ile growing more and more morose. Gertrude enters. "The cabman is below, but he only promises to take you there, not to wait for you." "Very well, I can get another cab to bring me Laok." Mr. Peter departs, after slamming the door, while Charlotte, blushing and trembling, recounts to her old friend Gertrude, how she is much bet ter acquainted with Mr. Mason than she dares to confess to her father. That for a month at least sh i aai ha have taken the omn'b is at the same time each evening, and that, without seem ng to do so, she, Ch irl tte. lias noticed his evident admiration of her, etc., etc. "A line affair, indeed," exclaims the astonished servant, all in a tremor of excitement. William Mason is in his bachelor apartments, and. in a sentimental mood, is gazinar at the hand that his charm'ng neighbor in the o.nnibus h is touched while taking the card he gave her. Suddenly there comes a knock at the door, wh'ch opens- abruptly. A large man, out of breath, his hat over his ears, his cane in his list, enters unceremoniously. "Sir,"' he t-xclaims, "to say the least of it, your conduct is unworthy of a gentleman. A gentleman does not take advantage of the innocence, the inexperience, the artlessness, the embarrassment of a young girL To profit by the absence of a father, and a pocket-book, to brutally offer to a young person who is alone, not only a dime, but a visiting card, may be a good investment, but is very bad manners. But here is your dime. sir. My daughter anl I wish nothing further to do with you." And the large mm, after perora ting with much volubility, begins to search in his pockets; but before Mason, who is utterly dumbfounded, can utter a word, a new actor appears on the scene. It is the cabman, who comes in furiously, brandishing his whip. "This is fine! I tell you I will bring you here, and not wait for you, and you accept the terms. You even order me to make haste; when we arrive you shoot olf like a zebra, as slippery as an eel, without p -ying me, and call ing out to me to wait. That won't go down, I tell you! 1 mean what I say. One trip means one trip and nothing else. Come, hurry up, if you please. I want my dollar, and be quick about it!" Mason did not understand; but the large gentleman, who has precipitate ly dived into each picket, then suc cessively turned them all wrong side out, without appreciable result, grows pink and white, then crimson, then violet, and now shales off into green a rainbow in a iilk hat and over coat. 'T have forgotten my pocket book "That's an old trick," roars the cabman; "but you can till that to the police. It won't answer with m and he prepar -d to seize the arm of the unfortunate man, who, in despair, on the verge of apoplexy, meekly submits. But Mason, a veritable providence to the family, gives the cabman the necessary amount and orders him away. "Permit me," the young man says, with exquis.te politeness, to the ex merchant, who barely has strength to articulate. "Certainly, my dear sir, with pleas ure, but give htm only one dollar not a cent more." The father of Miss Charlotte, who but recently could not understand that a pers m has not always in his pocket as much as a dime to pay iu an omnibus, now admits that he is very happy to have some one to advance tiie suro of a dollar to stop the mouth of a p t.less cabman. Thus, notwithstanding the diverse and unusual em itions he has just ex perience 1. it is with an almost gra cious smile that he sars to Mason: "S r, fiat makes J I. 10 tnat I owe you. 1 believe. If you will do me the pleasure of dining with me this even ing, we will settle this little affair. A merchant does not 1 kj old debts be sides, short reckonings makj gooJ frienls." A quarter of an hour later Gertru le places an extra Diate at tne tab e. It is st 11 pi iced tiiere every day for the next month, the engagement of Miss Charlotte Princeton and Mr. Will a n Mason is announced, and the ex-merchant still says to any one who cares to listen: "Never borrow, oh. ye fathers of families! It costs too dear. I once owed a debt of SI. 10. and in order to pay it. I ha I not only to give away my daughter, but S-'a.OOO as he dowry."

Mr. Watson raada no j rote.it, but accompanied Mrs. Cooley to her room, where he waited outs.de the dior while she completed her toilet. hiie they were there Deputy Dau Joces bean a search of the premises for beer. lour bottles were found in the n-fri.5er.U0r acid a cork-screw and several l.eer mug-s. For a time no more liquor could be found, but the reporter linally found a dozen bottles in a barrel in the cellar, after getting taany cobwebs on his liose and spiders down his back. Tho wet goods were taken to the sher iff's otlice iu a express wagon, while Mrs. Cooley walked to the ollice with Watson and her bondjiniu, who is a coal dealer in tho same block.

Knvolveri Vcr Drawn. j Deputy Shei ills Tom Wiikerion, Jacobs f and Dan Joues next went to the "club" at the Northeast corner of First and Van Buren streets. Tubs club has a charter j as "The Germ in-American Laborer's Aid j and Belief Society," and the cash from j the salo of beer went into the "Koiief 1 fund," (on paper.) The oilicers were fortunate in finding a member ia tho act of entering and thoy got in before tho door couli be shut, j There were uine men in the Louse, four of them playing cards and tiie rest drink ing. Frank Kitzler was t he proprie tor of the place and Wiikerson in "mired for him. A youag man hardiy 2 years of ago responded, and he was shown the warrant. ".My narae vas nod Frank Eitzler, it vas Jlika Lizel." "Well, you run the joint, don't you?" "Dot part of id vas ull right, but py chimminny the name vas wrong aud I cannot go mit you." "I think you'will." By this time tho other men in tho room had become ituersstud, at Isast tno-e who were sober enough, to. Tho men around the tables g j'. up and approached the officers and a iaoio piano-teaoiier who was there, called out: "Don't go, Mike; we'll stay by you." Tbo musician ap proached Wiikerson with his cane up lifted as thoucrh to strike, using abusivo language. Wilkers.ia struck him a blow with hi.s list that se.it him sprawling into a corner of the 10 jui. Tush the other men in tho rouninnht-d on to the oili-.'ers. Jacobs knocked a l.iaa dosvu and all tiie o.'beers drew their revolvers. Somebody threw a beer-glass, but further than that the occupants of thd joint wora coacant to subside. They v.-era terror. ::od by tho revolvers. An eicut-ga'.luu keg of beer and about twenty bailies were co itis eated, as well as gias.se.-, trays, Leer pnmps and other club paraphernalia. It was the intention cf tho oil.cers 10 arrest tho lame uius;cian, but ha slipped out of tho back door unawares. Tho rest, ex cept the proprietor were not arrested. The little cottage occupied by the club faces the liock island tracks aud bets well back from tho street and is almost hid by shade trees. The on;y entrance is through the back basement door, which has six distinct locks 0:1 it. There are seven rooms in the house, each, ex- cept the kitchen, containing nothing ex cept card tables aud chairs. 1 THREE LITTLE JAYS.

Three littlo drunks wero all there was in police court to afford entertainment for Judge Knsminger and City Attorney Tiilotson. The rest of tho cases were discharged or continued.

John Goldstein wandered ia with an in nocent eyo and a very dirty shirt He was charged wiili having Ic-ea too inti mate witii a decoction known to the sporting wcrl 1 as "white hos."

BleASnres of Freraotion Taken by the Big Transatlantic Linen. With only Tew exceptions the reg ular steamship lines pursue well d 3 tined pathsi" goingand comi ng across the Atlantic, aud this cot only averts the danger of collision, but is an ele ment ot salety in case of disaster, as a ship, if !n tbe "lace," is reasonably sine of being sighted, if not by one cf her s str ship;, by one of some other line. The closely calculated failing directions under which cap tains guide their crafts across tbe water p.ovide for Teaching specified meridians of longitude while on. cer tain pa allels of latitude, the merid ian 50 degrees we-t being mostly used r.s a basis for reckoning. Com ing westward, say3 the iNew York Tribune, tho Cunarders will cross that line in latitude 13 north, or les? than that; f.gure; the White Star Line divides the year into two tarts, and from February to August runs with the Cunard steamers; from Au gust to February, however, its ves sels keep further north, and the limit for crossing the meridian is 45 degrees 50 minutes north. The American Ldne gets one degree neater tbe equator, and strikes 50 degress west on the forty-second par allel, while the !North German Lloyd captains sa 1 under 'go-as-you-please" orders, crossing the meridian or 50, however, about eighty miles south 0: the irgin blocks, or a lit tle, to the north of the forty-fourth parallel. Going eastward, however, the tkrures change slightly, and the Cunard Line reaches the mark of 50 degrees west one de.. ree so.ith of its westward crossing point, wnile the White Star Line drops its division of the year and sticks to a course, stiil nearer the equator than its red-fun-neiied rival, making the forty-tlrst parallel the objective point or junc tion with the meridian throughout the year. One great danger of the transat lantic voyage is in parsing the New foundland and Georges Ashing banks. Little two masted cockleshells swarm over tbe places where tish are known to congregate, and, blow high or blow low, poke their noses up into the wind and let it keep on blowing, while the guiding spirits of the frail cralt tire out in their dories cbasing a school of cod or haddock. 'When fog settles down on the water and a damp, gray blanket of mist shuts out from view everything but the tumb ling wave that hap; eas to be ri;ht under the beat, there they stay un til they are either loaded with lb-.ii or short of provisions, when they 'up killick" and away .or home. At night it is the s:une as in f g, arid wiiiie it sometiui.s happens that the s; hooner itself is smashed to stliu tersor cut in two or sunk, it is more often the ca-e that .a boat a short distance from her is cut down aud two or m.jie men auded to the long and tear moistened lit of '-missiag Irom the fishing fleet." The new rules of the road revive the article of tbe law of 15, which pro v id s that open boats and 1'siiiug vessels of Jess tlian twenty tons t-ha!l have a lantern with two ghiS;-es, one showing a red and the ot her a green light, which sha l be shown on the proper side of the boat when approached by another vessel, and another section prov des that roaming beats, whether under sail or oars, shall carry a lantern showing a white light, which must be exhibited aa a warning to approaching cra:t. With these rules strictly enforced and of internationnl etiect, it is hoped that many of the ptr.ls of the sea will be overcome, for while the g steamer may come safely to port and land her passengers all light, it is not pleasant to think that in a rush for a record human lives have been sacrlllced that mirht have been saved if strict attention had been given by all concerned to the rules of the roacl. Tfiaf Wicked I'nrrot. 'Baldheaderl people are continual ly being mad? the butt of other peo ple's jokes, remarked K. M. Weir of Chicago as he mopped the perspira tion from his pate, which was as de void or hair as a billiard balk "It is not often, thouerh, that you hear of a parrot taking advantage of our misfortune and setting us up an ob ject of ridicule. Such a thing hap pened to me a few weeks ago, and I w 11 teil you how It was. An old col lege chum of mine received a parrot a one of his wedding presents, and both be and his wife are greatly at tached to the bird. He is in the habit of getting out of his cage and roaming over the h'.;u e at his own sweet will. One day the cook caught Polly in the act of pulling some pickled onions Irom a jar that stood on the kitchen table; she was so amry that she threw a dinper of hot water ehf had in her hand at him, some of which landed on top of his head, and the result was that a tutu o: feather1? came off and he was a bala headed parrot fcrevermore. -Months after this occurrence I called at the hoaie of ray friend to spend the evening. The parrot's ca;;e hung up in the hall in such a posi tion that he could command a view cf the front door. As I stepped in side the door aad removed my hat, displaying my extensive bald pate, Polly at ones cried out in the plain est tones: 'Ua, ha, so you have been at the pickled onions, too, have your' St. Louis Globe-Democrat. IteTuindecl Him ol Webster. The Kansas City Mail tells a story of a Congressman, who, having sub mitted himselt to the manipulation of a venerable colored barber in Washington, was told: "Do you know, sah, you remind me so much of L'an'l Wet-stab?, Of course the Congressman was gieatly pleased at tbe compliment, and he smilea visi Llv. Lie would have strabzhtwaed uo promptly had he not had his head in a barbarous chancery, so to speak. "Indeed," he said. "Shape of my head, I suppose?" This staggered the acred colored man somewhat. He ha l not expected 3 question in reply, and bad merely laid the foundation for his complimentary bluft, never thinking that there would be a call for an explanatory superstructure. 'No, sah, he stammered in replv. 2iot yo' head, sah. It's yo' brefL" Never Learned Ilia Name. That a woman can marry and not know her husband's came seems im possible, yet such a woman was found in a remote pdace In the South dur ing the Civil War, according to the historian ot the Thirteenth Illinois Volunteers. Certain of the soldiers of that regiment, being socially dis posed, went one evening to make a call at a house not far from the camps. They received a net over warm welcome from the residents, an olt! woman and her daughter. The older woman sat in a splint- I bottomed chair, industriously smok ing a corn-cob pipe. During the conversation cne of the boys inquired her husband s name. j "Wal," was her slow answer, "I never did rightly git hold o' the old man's name. 1 taxed h.m about it a time or two, when we was a-coartin, but I 'low that I never did git hold of arry light eend on't, 'Pears like he said 'twas Mummy or Muren or Meushin or some s ch." "He isn't about home, I suppose?" was the next question. "No, he aint, she answered, shortly. "He's off Cghtin' the Yanks.-' The young woman meantime had hunted up an old envelope on which had sometime been addressed, 'gege rulf tuun." The soldiers puzzled over it for awhile, and then decided it was intended for "Judge Ilalph Munn." "There's a young man up In our camp by that same name," remarked one of tbe men. "Do he tote a gun?" asked the old woman. "Oh no," was replied; "he's a mt s cian. "What, is he one of them ar' rub-a-dub fellers?" she inquired. "No, he plays a flute," said the soldier, and he went through the motions of playing that instrument. uh, yes, I know." she responded. "He blows into one of them ar' screechin'-sticks!" aud then she rose, knocked her pipe against th chimney-jam and remarked, "Wal, 1 hope a bullet from my old man's squirt ei ri.e'il hunt him up an' make his 'quaintance." Tins Was in New Mexico. "I remember a very funny incident that happened a few years ago down in New Mexico," said a retired army orbcer to a reporter fcr the New Y'oric Decor er. "An old scout and experienced Indian lighter enlistel a company of cowboys, ami, marching them to the armv post at Santa Fe, reported tor duty to the colonel in charge o? the body of regular troos stat oned there. "The colonel was a dapper little man, neat and nicely gloved, you know, aud he rather looked down upon the rough company that was of fered to him. Turning to the captain of the ragged crowd, he said: 'Ever seen service?' "Urn.' replied the other. 'Men well drilled?' 'Urn.' 'Well, just order them over thera to camp, so I can see how you would go about it, and how they'd obey,' taid the colonel. 'Hey, you fellers!' called out the captain, git over there to that f nee, get off your hosses and turn in; be blessed quick about it, and Bill, you onery uss, if you don't have cor.ee ready in an hour I'll split your ears.' "The next day the entire command began a campaign against the In dians. Before taking up th march the colonel gave most minute and es pecial orders in a long address to his regulars, telling them whMt to do if attacked, and what orders would then be given. The c i tain, .after the colonel had finished, returned to the men and cried out. 'liev, you fellers, darn you, double quick, an if thera red sons of guns git after you, don't wait for no fool orders from mc, but light onto 'e-p.' "And if it h;idn't been for this crowd times would have gone hard with the regulars that time when they did meet the Indians." Senator Sherman and the General. Senator Sherman was once asked whether it was true this he once came near haing General her lean's place and of going to West Point. He replied: "No. I think nob When my father died he left, you know, a family of eleven chil dren, the eldest of whom was, IS years and the youngest (5 weeks. He did not leave a large amount of property, and some of the children were taken by our relatives, ano" the eneral was adopted by the Hon. Thomas Ewing, who was a great friend of the family, and who lived near us. Mr. Ewing came to my mother and told her he would like verv uch to adopt one of her boys if she would pe; mit him, but that he wanted the smartest of the lot. As the story goes, my mother said 'Yoa bad better take Cump; he is the smartest. As for John, 1 think he j is too young to leave me,' and so Campy was adopted by Mr. l.wing, and by him sent to West Point." A boy in Richmond, Va., was ar rested for having $"i0,000 in Cor.'ed erate money in hi? possession. His attorney convinced tbe Judue that tbe war was over, however, and he was released.
