The Courier comment upon the above rerord ai fo! '.ows: 1 cot ttis comparison appalling? Wh;i.t manner of management is it that would let tli-fsj poor children die us it they were in a pest house instead of an ayl;itn? I it the idea of the "reform" administration that it is tetter economy to let the inmates of the asyluiii die than to continue 1 3 care for them properly? Oh, what inhumanity! It should brinjj the blush of shame to every honest Kan Sin's face. The utter inicompetoncy of Dr. Piich er is thoroughly understood in this com munity. Even those most charitably in-c-hued toward him feel that he ia totallv untit forBucb a position. It only requires a vitit to the institution to prove this. Then why, in the face of the evidence presented, w th the children dving- olf like sheep in the shambles. w;ill Gov ernor Levelling delay removing this us an. In the name of common humanity, in the name of justice, iu the name of mor ality, in the interest of common self-re-Hpect and decency, the Courier, on be talf of every citizen ia this slate, de mands the immediate removal of Dr Piicher. WITH A Bl'CKtT OF WHITEWASH Iba flat? Ito.trd of rtuHil. Keeps Mct aser In Ills Pl. The ftate loard of charities last night .yut.u.jfo. a lung and secret nvestic-a- uon at tr.e state insane members gf the board have now'goo to Winfield t make an investigation of the e:har-es ajtrattis: Dr. I'.lcher, the super intendent of the rcLuol for idiotic and imbecile youth, who lias been accused of a grave oifense. The iuvt-st Ration it the asylum i- over but Dr. J. II. .(icC'a-sy i- still iu tunrj;e as superintendent and will probably con tinue to act in that capacity, unless the quo warranto proceedings commenced iu the supreme court by the former super intendent, Dr. li. D. Eastman, result in his petting- his oid place back, which isn't likely. During the in vestiatioa the doors of the committee room were kept locked, and but little that was going- on inside got out, as all the employes who testified were told to keep si ill or they would lose their Jobs. It is, however, understood from a re liable source that tiie. board of charities did not act a a unit. W. S. V"ait opposed McCasey, and Mrs. Lease defended the superintendent, who is still in charge of the institution. The members of the board said the object of the investigation was to get the 1 tuside workings of t ie institution that j they might adopt a code of rules for the mauairement of the employes of the in stitution. There is a prett deal being said in i Populist circles in regard to the streuu 1 ous support of cC'usey. i,'ow, why is I -Mrs. Lease so determined to keep Mc j Casey iu his position': To bein with, McCasey is not an honest man. When the charges 01 untitaess first came out agaimt him, McCas-jy paid money to the opeka Capital, the Leavenworth i Times aud the Kansas City 'limes j for articles iu his defense in the news columns of those papers. The Capita!, to its credit bo it said, plainly marked the article it published "adv." (advertisement). Money wa: oifered to the Jclknal by Dr. Me Cas-y in person, but it was refused. 1 heso facts are suriicient to show ia the tirst place that McCasey is not a man of integrity; but when we hud that Mrs. Lease is working as hard as she can for McCi-tey, icn't it fair to presume that McCasey is continuing his payments where they will do the tnost good?

SIGHT OF CHICAGO I I A C. r St. r. Ur-iirht Train is Boarded by Kobbers. It Took Place at Deerfield Town Near Chicago. a detective was siiot Exciting Chase After the peradoes Takes Place. Dcs- Several Officers Shot in Pursuit it is Said. the The Band is fs Were Captured After a Desperate Battle. Chicago Aug. 25. When the north bound freight on the C, M. St. P. road stopped last night at Deerlield two masked men mounted the steps of the caboose. The train stops at this station, wnich is just over the Cook county line in Lake county, for water. The brake meu were well toward the engine, which was in charge of Engineer Pritchard, and only the conductor, Sargent, and the road detective, .Patrick Owens, Ira trick Owens, were the caboose. It was 10:-d o'clock. The masked men entered the door and covered the couductor and detective with their revolvers. The detective sprang for his rifle, but before he could reach it one of the robbers shot him through the breast. The conductor threw up his hands and the robbers who had done the shooting went through his pockets, taking his watch aud a small amount of money. Afterward he searched the detective's clothes for valuables and left J.ie "train jnst before the brakeman, who had heard the shot, came running back. Trainmen who passed through Des plaiues this morning declared that they were informed at that viilatre that two t city police had been shot by the three i bandits. j Another report was that the train rob bers after leaving Deerlield, on the Chi cago, Milwaukee St. Paul railway cut across the country to M ay fair. Tha do pot at Mayfair is oa Holcomb avenue. I Sitting at the depot was a Chicago I Xorthwestern policeman who had been apprised of the deed of violence at Deerlield. He was on the lookout for j any suspicious characters. The watcher j saw the men approaching and started to intercept them. Just here the robbers begaa firing at I the o(Iieer He dropped to the ground shot in the arm aud side aud his wound may prove fatal. After this bit of bloody j work, the bandits hastened out Holcomb i avenue to Lawrence. Oa the way they j met a farmer in a wagon on the way to the city. It was but a few j moments work to throw him out and take possession of his vehicle. With j horses to draw them, .the thfeves made i better time, aud they were soon on j through Lawrence avenue to .Milwaukee I avenue. j By this time that part of the country was in a turmoil. Boys and men on po nies aud horses hastily saddled were in the chase after the desperadoes. Out oa Milwaukee avenue galloped the robbers iu the wagon, while behind them at a respectful distance clattered the horses of the pursuers. Behind these again came a patrol wagon at full speed, ia which were four policemen. The pursued men kept out on the j Maynard road, when they took to Orchard Place woods, on the Desplaine9 river, south of Higgins road. The story went that the pursued men in the stolen farmer's wagon had been closely pressed by a patrol wagon load of police, between Jefferson and Norwood Park, on the Maywood road. Leaping from the wagon the three men took refuge under a bridge and when the officers dashed up and began to pile out of the patrol wagon, the pursued men turned loose their revolvers and shot two of the officers. In the confusion which follow ed the first lire, the men escaped to the woods, where they were surrounded by police. Messengers were dispatched to Jefferson for physicians and they brought the uews of the shootiug to that village. A spiecial train bearing a large num ber of policemen and detectives was sent out to Desplaines. The officers were armed with Winchesters and carried or ders to shoot on sight. Patrick IMcGrath, the Northwestern spec.al detective who was shot at .May fair, probably escaped instant death be cause he had a pen holder in his pocket. MaGrath noticed the men, three be thinks, on a flat car which was attached to a south bound train and shouted to them to get off. He thought the men were suspicious looking characters and that they might have had something to do with the Deerlield robbery. When the men were rdered to leave the train they answered with revolver. MeGrath fell to the platform with three 1 shots in his body. One bullet struck the man in the left arm. one entering his body aud a third struck him near his heart, but was diverteu by a penholder j which the officer had in his pocse". The North western ofliebds received word at 11 o'clock that the fleeing baud its at Mayfair had shot and killed two special poiicemeu who attempted to in tercept them. The information received by tne railroad officials indicated that the desperadoes, after their hold-up, boarded an inbound train at Deertield. Holding up the conductor, they robbed him of all the money he had, and then pulling the bell rope, jumped from the train near -Wnyfair. Starting for the woods, thev were I i chased by two special policemen, Plunket and i uen aud openin g tire both olBc-ri fail mortally wouuded. The robbers thea continued their flight and after aa 1 exciting time reached the woods ia safety. Three miles from where the farmer who was named Egrersten was held up, i his team and wagon were found. The wngon hud broken down and had been abandoned by the desperadoes. Both cf the horses were completely exhausted, j'ihe officers traced the fugitives to a cornfield, through which they run and score of policemen took up The desperadoes were tina in the wood in Lik orov anout noun by tive Ciucar poiiceiiu'ti. The men were surrounded, but fought desperately, liriug as often as their re volvers could be loaded. After fully 100 shots had beea fired, the men both fell seriously, but it ia thought not fatally injured. They grave their names as Y ill Lake and W. S. Gor don, and were brought to Chicago and locked up in a West side police station. The desperadoes were captured by Officers Mullaney, Fennigan. Meaeley, Lawson and Hayes. The crowd which had gathered waited to lynch the men, but the police held the mob back with drawn revolvers. BUTTERFLIES FAVORITE. The Gideon and Daly filly Well Thought Of to Win the futurity. Nkw Yohr, Aug. 23. The turf lovers were out bright and early and with anx ious eyes they scanned the horizon to see if there were any indications of unruly elements interfering with the day's spurt. A shadow crept over their faces as num- fron- durlc blonds Rnisiirfd in Ihfl I heavens. However these nnpropitious sign3 did not deter them from getting an early start toward Sheepshead bay and every boat for Coney Island since dawn of day has been well tilled with people inter ested in, or at least to secure a seat from which the great futurity race may be seen. The indications are that the at tendance will be as large if not larger than any gathering to witness any event in this viciuity. There are 15 horses named as starter3 and as the owner of each horse has to pay $37 J for the privilege of starting, he must think his horse has a fair chance of bringing home the gold. Leading sporting men and the morning papers are almost unanimous in declar ing Gideon Daly's Butterflies to be tne favorite, because of her private trials, and the high opinion of her owners. She sold favorite iu the pools last night. Among the others who are receiving popular support are Col. Kupperi's Counter Tenor, O. P. Belmont's Brandy wine, Dr. Kuapp's California, Gideon Daly's Walizor and Louis Stewart's Monoca. Any of these horses might win without their victory being regarded as a surprise. If Butterflies wins the race she will bm the first Ally to laud the big prizte. Only two fillies have beea placed YorKville in 1890 and Lady Violet ia 1892. ilOrtSK.

An Heir of the Third Generation Unprecedented. TheQneen Will Remain Neutral in Corean War. LoNDON.Aug. 23. Parliament was pro rogued today. The queen's speech was read from the throne in the house of lords, by lord high chancellor, Lord Herschell, commences: "My Lords and Gentlemen:' I am gratified at the fact that your labors, though exhausting have been fruitful and I am confident that you share the joy at the birth of an heir of the third generation to the throne. The event is not merely propitious, it is unprecedented in the history of the Country." "I regret to stale that war has broken out between China and Japan. After endeavoring in conference-ith Russia and the other powers to prevent an out break of hostilities I have taken steps to preserve strict neutrality. 'I have learned with satisfaction that the proceedings at tho Ottawa conference were of a character calculated to strengthen the union of the Colonies con cerned, both among themselves and with the mother country." Referring to the budget, the queen's speech says: "Though I lament the necessity of increasing the burden of taxation, it had become iudispeusible for the security of the empire to increase the naval strength." The speech adds: "While the general tranquility of Ireland is maintained to a remarkable degree, certain social and administrative difficulties still subsint, which continue to engage the earnest attention of the government," THE GOVERNOR KEFFSES. Dennis Campbell's Petition for a Pardon ia Itejected. Governor Lewelling today refused the petition of Dennis Campbell for a par dou from the county jail. The petition was sent to County Clerk i cCabe to Wfer to the county commissioner. The peti tion was made before Campbell escaped from the county jail. It might have been granted if it hadn't been for that. The commissioners will probably refuse to consider tho petitiou for a moment. Since Campbell has been captured he seems likely to stay his sentence out. WILLBE NO 31 ESS AG E. N'o further Doubt That the l'reIdent will Let tile Time Inspire. "WTAsniNOiO-N. Aug. 23.

"We thought," Mr. Gompers said, "Ihat if Mr. Gladstone could'do no much good service in the English coal strikes, such an attempt would uot be beneath the dignity of the president of the U nited Stales.

The activity of the Chinese in hunting down Japanese spies increases every day, a id if tha Chinese are to be believed, the cuatt must be overrun with agents of the J apanese government. Seven .ia panes in Chinese costume were arrested here to day, and it is given out that they will b. expelled from China, but nobody would be surprised if they were treated much more severely. The Japanese elsewhere in China are subjected to the must harsh treatment. In the island of Formosa the Chins. authorities have been decapitating Chinese subjects, supposed to be spies, in large numbers. According to advices received here from Formosa, fifty Japanese have lost their head re cently after being arretted as spies. 1 be most intense heat prevails here aud there is much suffering in consequence.

STATE JOURNAL. SATURDAY" EVENING, AUGUST 25. 1891. 2 ESCAPE CUT OFF. Tbirt3 -seven Miners Killed In a Seattle, Wash., Mine. Oat -of Sixty-two Hen Twenty-live Escaped. Only FIRE BROKE OUT. The Men Were 5 mothered Death by Smoke. to Seattle, Wash., Aa?. 23. A ter rible calamity occurred in breast No. C2 on the sixth level of the Franklin mine, near th's city yesterday after noon. The causa was a fire in breast Ko. 63. Sixty-two miners were im prisoned and thirty-seven were killed. The fire was soon extinguished and he work of taking out the bodies beg-an. All were recovered. About half of the minsrs were col ored men, having been brouyht from the East four years ago to replace the etrikera. The mine is. owned by the Oregon Improvement company and produces the best coal in the state of WashiDsrton. At 12:45 o'clock a f.re was noticed by some of ttie drivers on the sixth north level, and notice was g-iven to the men on the in aide, who were working- in di fferent places, some in the breast about the level and others along1 the gangway. Many of tha men in the gangways rushed back tc notify the miners further in, while others rushed out and reached the main shaft. It is eartain that all the msn in the shaft reached the (fang-way in safety. In all about seventy men were at work in the sixth level north and of that number about forty ling-ered at breast Ko. 6, where the fire originated, and made an attempt to put out the fire. The breast wa3 burning' fiercely and before the miners knew it the fire had communicated to bre&sts Nos. 60 and 61 and flames beg-an to issue from breast JN'o. el in that immediate vicinity. Several of those wio lingered at the burning breist 62 took warning- and fled, b it all who re mained were overcome and asphyx iated. It is evident fiat all the men had time to coma out, for those at work in the further breast reached the shaft in safety, while those who were nearest the shaft, and conse quently more removed from danger, perished. They evidently believed that they were ia perfect safety at the fire, brt while they ling-ered the smoke oozed out frora some outside place further south, an i the bodies were all founl south of bretr- t 62. They were all found alon within a space of 500 feet. Several men were badly bruised and one colored man was taken out with a broken neck, their wounds indicating- that they h:id thrown them selves ag-ainst post an I timbers of the gangway in a desperate endeavor to escape. But the majority of the bodies bear no marks at all, not even a scratch, and their features were in quiet repose, indicating that their death had been a speedy and painless one. As soon as Vie alarm whistle sounded from the engine house peo ple beg-an to crowd around the mouth of the slope, and cry, "The mine is on fire!" quickly spread throug-hout the town. Among- tie first to reach the scene was Superintendent W. T. Ramsey. lie tried to appear unconcerned and as though he really did not believe any lives would be lost, but crowds of men, womn and children who lived near the track becoming reassured at tha careless and good-natured manner of the superintendent, beg-an to treat the affair as a hug-e joke, laughing- and joking- each other. In a short time, however, word came for help, and when the superintendent called for volunteers to f'o into the mine there was preat excitement. The first man to volunteer was Ueorg-e W. Emalley, a colored man. who, with two others, wai lowered down the I, ICO foot elope to the sixth level There he met men from the sixth level, south, who were doing1 all they could to rescue men on the north side of th level Other rescuers wett down from the sur face, and C. C Todd, John Adams and John Morgan f ov nd the body of the first man in the ganyway about 1,000 feet in from the slope. The body proved to be that of John Q. Anderson, and was pulled to the top of the slope. The arrival of Ander son's body on the f-urface was the first intimation to the men, women and children on the surface that any one had met deatt. Consequently, when the tody wss carried away, there was a wild scramble to discover its identity. When it w:is found, the rescuers were besieged with ques tions from mothers, fathers and chil dren concerning- loved ones who were ia: pri-oned. But thtir questions were oniy answered by au ominous shake of the head. Meanwhile the miners from the levels were carrying oa the work of rescue in the bowels of the earth. The fan keeping- th air current in the mine had been shopped at the first indication of fire fro-n the return air course, but when the rescuers went to work the fan was started up, and then the nir in that part of the gang way south of breast S3, on the sixth level, was kept pure. M. I). Storv, one of the rescuers who went in from the surface, upon reaching the sixth level north, ran along the g-aogvray. At 1.000 feet in he found the first bedy, and then the rest of the miners were found scat tered along in a row. In one place eig-ht men were lying together, and in another oae man was lying under a mule, live mules in all being dead. fc tory says that t ie men were all lyinar in the middle of the gangway with their faces in the mud as if they had tried to bury their heads com pletely and thus escape the deadly an .1 obnoxious coal smoke. 4 that baciit- W.-i.n to arrive at thr luriaw mo ii, ii-v f merit of the wives and mothers, and, for that matter, the whole populace, became tin con troliable. At 3 o'clock the last of the thirty-seven bodies I to quiet down- was recovered and the people Deg-an BCENED, CKCSHED A.VD 13 C I 1 1! D. Horrible Death of Four Miners In the Am.tbfit Mlno at Croud e. Citeede, CoL, Aug. 25. Four miners were crushed, buried and burned to fleath in the Amethyst mine yester day. They are: Thomas Eversole, aged 23, married Archie Dowell, 22, single. Hugh Fay, 27, single. Charles Proctor, 23, single. Dowell was from Halifax, N. S., tnd Proctor from Pottawatomie, Kan. t The fire, which destroyed the shaft bouse with all its machinery, melted the cable attached to the skip, and the burning mass fell upon the miners who were ascending the shaft, hurling them to the bottom of the shaft. The loss by fire is about $0, 000. The mine is now filled with water. TBIGHTFUL BOILER EIPLO'IOy. Two Maa Killed Outrltrht Six Other Seriously Injured. Fbajtkfokt, Ind., Aug. 25.

Two men were killed and eleven injured, two fatally, by an explosion of gas in the Gilberton colliery, near this place yes terday morning. The explosion was primarily caused by a fall of coal, which became dislodged by the min ing operations. This relieve! an im mense volume of gas and at the same time forced it along the gangways to a distance of more than 1,000 yards, stifling and choking the miners as it swept along-. HAS A PULLMAN PASS. Labor Commissioner Wright Franli'y Ad mits That Be Has One. Chicago, Aug. 23. United States Labor Commissioner Carroll D. Wright, chairman of the special labor com mission appointed by President Cleve land to investigate the Pullman strike, was interviewed as to a report that he was in the habit of usin? a Pullman pass. He scarcely gave the reporter time to finish his question. "Yes, I have an annual pass on all Pullman cars," said he with emphasis, and I use it whenever I want to. The pass was given me by Mr. Pull man, who is a personal friend of mine, and I have had it for several years ever since the first I'u lman investigation I made for I suppose that's what you are driving at. I never knew Mr. Pullman until that time, and he has been a warm friend of mine ever since. He gave me passes and invited me to ride cn his cars whenever I wanted to just as a man would invite another to take a ride in his carriage." Commissioner Wright's pass entitles him to ride free in any Pullinun car at any time in any part of the United States. POPULIST OF NEBRASKA.

Cary; commissioner of public lands and buildings, W. J. Kent. Senator Allen addressed the con vention at some length. He arraigned the Republican state ticket as having been selected at the behest of the corporations. He 6aid it was neces sary for the elements which were in sympathy with one another to get together and elect a ticket that should represent the people instead of the corporations. He warned the con vention that the Populists had success or defeat within their grasp. It was their duty to select their candidates with great care. The speech was con cluded with the most demonstrative upplause. WILL MARK TUEIIt ORATES Citizens of Sacramento Raise Fnsdi for a Monument for I'rivate Soldiers. Sacramento, CaL, Aug. 25. A fund of 100,000 subscribed by the citizens of Sacramento for the purpose of erecting a suitable monument over the graves of Privates Dingan, Clarke, Byrne and Lubberding of the Fifth artillery, who lost their lives on July 11 last on the railroad trestle near this city through the act of the striking train wreckers, has been turned over to Colonel Willi in M.

A Choctaw Indian Called Out and Mur dered at Ills Home. Paris, Texas. Aug. 25. The situa tion in the Choctaw nation is grow ing more serious every hour. Last night a large body of Indians en tered the house of Albert Jackson, in Cedar county, and dragged him from a sick bed and shot hini to pieces. They then went away. In the morning they surrounded two other Indians whose names have not been learned and deliberately killed them. Both parties are searching for each other and there is no quarter shown or asked- A BIG BILUO PAY. This Government Called On to Refund Customs Duties. United States of ColombiaMakes the Demand. RECIPROCITY DID IT. Colombia HadDeelined toAccept Reciprocity Agreement. W a e ttix g to 27, Aug. 25. A secret has leaked out from diplomatics circles to the effect that our government has become sadly entangled with one of the Central American Republics as a result of the reciprocity treaties and will have a bill to pay, besides which the Behring sea claims will appear trivial in amount. The country in question is the United States of Col ombia, one of the Central American Republics which steadily refused all efforts of the state depart ment to induce it to become a party to one of these reciprocity treaties. Moreover, when her sister republics and Spain (as to Cuba and Porto Rico) began to ship their pro ducts duty free to the United States under the terms of their new treaties, Colombia claimed the same exemption for her staples, hides, coffee, sugar and molasses. The state department rejected this claim as it was obliged to do, else the whole fabric of treaties would have fallen, the United States being able to oifer no inducements otherwise. Colombia persisted in her claim and pointed to the treaty of 1816, which declares that the Colombians shall not be assessed any duty upon their products imported into the United States higher than the articles imported from any other foreign country. That meant, they contend, if the staples above mentioned en tered the United States free from Brazil and Cuba they should enter free from Colombia also, regardless of reciprocity treaties. They have never abated this contention; many letters have been exchanged on the subject, and at last the United States has been obliged to admit the strength and correctness of the Colombian po sition. This being done, it follows that the government must refund to importers the amounts they have paid in duties on Colombian products which should have been free, or admitted at lower rates. Just what the total will amount to no one can tell at present, but steps are being taken to ascertain the amount from statistics. The United States very recently induced Spain to order a refund of -5,000,000 collected erroneously upon our exports to Cuba, but a stronger case still is found in an instance where Great Britain was obliged to refund to the United States under the terms of a treaty closely corresponding with that between the United States and Colombia. CAliiXEI KEl'OETS. Secretary Morton Has Saved the Got- eminent 8300,090. Washisgtos, Aug. 25. The work of the administration during the past fiscal year will be reviewed in the an nual reports of the cabinet ofilcials, which will be submitted before the end of November. Secretary Morton's report will un doubtedly dwell on the economical plan pursued in cutting down ex penses of the various branches of the department, showing a reduction of 14 per cent in the expenditures during the last fiscal year. As a result more than SjCO.000 will be returned to the treasury department out of the ap propriations for the fiscal year. In discussing the subject it will be stated that the saving funds has been accomplished without impairment to the success through judicious pruning. The influence of civil service in ttie department will also be commented on. When Secretary Morton received his appointment he was a mild advo cate of civil service'reform, and he has subsequently become thoroughly in sympathy with its principles. 311XES IN USE TERRITORY. Condition Described In Detail In the Re port of Mine Inspector Bryan. Washisgtos, Aug-. 25. The condi tion of the coal mines in the Indian Territory is described in detail in the annual report of United States Mine Inspector L. W. Bryan. The output of the mines was 1,000,000 tons and 3,290 miners and men are employed. Concerning the strike of the Choctaw Coal and Railway company's miners the report says: "A company of sol diers is now encamped at Krebs and all the men at all the strip pits have gone to work. Tha company now hopes to be able to continue work un molested. None of the coal mines, however, have yet started up. The effects of this prolonged strike are disastrous to all concerned." WORK.

New Yokk, Ang-. 25. 3radstreeta lays: Serious industrial disturb ances in New England, drought in lentral and far western states, cur tailing nearly all 6taple crops, and a disposition in all lines to continue to buy for nearby wants only, fail to greatly influence g-eneral trade throughout the country, the trend of which is toward public im provement. Northwestern states east of the Missouri and the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and Western states re spectively gain in volume of traffic! and spread of that better feeling and confidence in a larger volume of busi ness in the fall, on which improve ment in business depends. Prominent among evidences of ex pansion is general trade in this week's bank clearing's total. The $320,000, 000, a gain over last week of abuut 4 per cent, and over the like total a year ago, when clearings g-ot down to about low water mark, the increase is 20 per cent. But compared with the total in the like week two years ago this week's aggregate clearings f show a decrease of 18 per cent. It is also worth noting as a sign of the business movement that every city's clearings total for the week is larger than a week ago, except one. Bank Clearings. New Yokk, Aug. 25.

Omana Denver St Joseph Lincoln Wichita Topeka HAS A DAY IN COURT. General Eztta and His Followers Ar raigned Before Jud Morrow. Sax FraxcisCo, Cab, Aug. 25. General Antonio Ezeta and his fellow refuge from San Salvador were prisoners before Judge Morrow in the United States district court yes terday morning. Attorneys for the Salvadorian government were present and asked for a continuance. Counsel for the prisoners demanded an immediate hearing under the charges. They stoutly maintained that they were political refugees and were unlawfully detained and that they had been illegally restrained since June 6 last. The attorneys for the government of San Salvador argued as earnestly to show the justice of a continuance. After listening to the arguments Judge Morrow continued the case until Monday, September 3, declaring that the treaty with Salvador pro vides for such continuances and that the delay asked for was not un reasonable. Counsel for defendants moved for bail. The motion was taken under advisement. The defense then ob jected to the jurisdiction of the court, because they had been brought into the country against their will. The point was left in abeyance. THE BLUEFIELDS TROUBLE Eight Americans Are Pat in Prison by the Nlcarajaim. CoLOS, Aug C5. A schooner has ar rived here with seventy refugees from Bluefields, Mosquito territory. They pay that the Nicaraguans have im prisoned eight American citizens and several British subjects, including the British vice consul. The country is described as being depopulated, and the business is said to have been stopped. The refugees also report that more Nicaraguan troops are arriving at Bluefields, and that 8,000 men are due there. This display of force is an nounced to be caused by the deter mination of the Nicaraguans to resist foreign interference in their affairs. Plerce'd the Armor i'late. 6ASy Hook, Aug. 25.

"You've heard of that feeling called re morse, I presume?'' he queried as he en tered the Gratoit Avenue police station the other night and came to a sudden halt before the sergeant's desk. The officer looked up and gave him a brief survey, but didn't say anything. "I have carried it in my bosom for 15 years now," whispered the stranger, "and must get rid of it at any cost. Remorse! It is a vrolf gnawing at the vitals; it ia a flame burning into the soul! I thought I could carry the secret to my grave, but the torture is too great." The 6ergeant raised his eyebrows in an Inquiring way, but made no inquiries. "Half an hour ago I was on the point of leaving for Canada, but remorse held me In its chains.

The statement of Expert Accountant Stephen Little that during the past four years the earnings of the Atchison, To peka and Santo Fe railroad have been overestimated more than $7,000,000 and that th road has entered into pooling and rebate arrangements with other big lines caused a gTeat flurry in railroad circles recently and resulted in the res ignation of President and Receiver J. "W. Reinhart. Expert Little examined the book9 of the road at the request cf the Atchison protective reorganization committee, and his revelations resulted in the immediate retirement of Presi dent Reinhart and the ippointment of Aldace F. Walker as receiver of the Atchison property. According to Expert Little's report, the officials of the road have not only induced investors to buy the road's stock by misrepresenting its earnings, but they have violated the interstate commerce act by the payment of rebates and by the pooling of traffic with other companies, the main evils the act is de- ALDACE F.

Opinions t ilea Whots Karnes Are Widely Known Soma Who Tliixilc They Have as Good a CbAOM as They vr Had Conn try and City. Special Correspondence. New York, Aug. 23. Whenever I bave had the opportunity of late and b ave been in the company of men whose opinions were worth gathering on such a subject I have turned the current of talk to the discussion of these allied questions: "Have the young men of to day as good an opportunity to win suc cess as they had in the past, say a score of years ago?" and "Is it advisable for the farmer's son who is bright and clever and pushing to leave the ances tral acres and start out for himself ia eome great city?" A Policeman's View. Not all to whom I have put the ques tions are men whose names are widely known. One was a policeman whose beat is along the south side of Union 'A REV. ROBERT COIXYER. square. He is an American, and from his appearance was a country boy. I took him for a central New Yorker and asked him if I was right. "Yes, you are," he said. "I'm from Herkimer county. My father had a farm up there and has it yet. He's an old man now, but he's the most con tented man I know of. His farm was paid for 20 years ago. I helped pay for it by working on it till I wa3 21. Then I got gay and came to town. "Y'ou wish now that you hadn't?" I queried. "Yes, I do. Of course I've grot" a job that I won't lose as long as I behave myself, no matter how hard the times are. But suppose I'd staid on the farm with my father and been content with the country. Why, say, he lives like a king up there. He has his horses and carriage; he i3 independent as a man can be; he's town clerk and so is count ed somebody by his neighbors. He ha3 to work hard in the summer, but in the winter he takes it easy. I'm saving my money, and some day I'm going back there and have a farm of my own. They may say all they want to about farming not paying. It's good enough for me. The farmer doesn't have as much money maybe as the city man, but he doesn't have to spend so much either. He doesn't have a chance to do such big things, and so he finds fault sometimes, but he forget3 or never knew that risks in town are a hundred times greater than they are on the farm. Young men have as good a chance, too, I think, as they ever did. I had a better chance than my father did, but I wasn't willing to work as hard as he did to benefit by it. i Rev. Robert Collyer Is Sangruine. White haired Dr. Collyer, famous as a pulpit orator alike in Chicago and New York, was the next man to whom I put my queries. "The present is hardly the time, he replied, "to ask these questions. But when the hard times have passed away, and they are but temporary, I believe the young man of today who is in ear nest and sincere and willing to work will have a much better opportunity to make his way in the world than had the young man of 20 years ago. The young man of today, even though his oppor tunities for schooling were limited, is a much better trained young man than his father was before him. I know it is often urged that there are fewer oppor tunities now for young men to go into business in a small way and win mod erate successes, because of the concen tration of so many lines of business in the hands of, comparatively speaking, a few large corporations. But this condi tion does not affect what I have said. The young man of ability and earnestness can make his way in connection with the corporations. They are hungering for men of capacity, young men whe are able to do their work, and very often they are quite unable to get them. They are willing to pay any price for the right men. This talk that the age of golden op portunities for young men has passed is nonsense. Rev. Dr. Sail's Relief. f Rev. Dr. John Hall, like Dr. Collyer, believes that young men have as good a chance now as they ever had. "Perhapt the strongest cry that the young man has no chance nowadays," he said, "comes from the country. It is a mis taken cry. The farmer's son of today cannot get away from the farm quick enough to suit him. He hurries to the city, there to enter into fierce competi tion with other farmers sons for a live lihood. The cities are already congested and are daily receiving recruit3 from abroad. The competition becomes toe fierce, and the farmer's son who might have lived a useful, well ordered and sane life in the country falls by the wayside. I am more familiar with the old country and its conditions in some respects than with, this, and I know ol farms that have been abandoned there, the men who should have worked them having left to seek their fortunes in Lon don or in America, while at the same time London receives a large proportion of its supply f butter and eggs from France and Belgium. If the people of those countries can produce those sup plies at a profit for the London market, why cannot Englishmen on English farms? In America, as I understand it, young men are leaving farms because they cannot get on to suit taeinselves as farmers, and Germans are taking their places and supplying the markets ?f the cjtiea with vegetables and chick jna and email fruits and butter and egga. The difficulty is that the farmer's eon wants to get where he thinks hia hours of work will be short and the rewards will be glittering. He is not willing to get up in the morning by daylight, as hia father did, and work all day. He does not understand that farm ing to be successfully conducted must be done in businesslike way; that the nature of the soil and of the crops planted must be studied; that the mar ket must be understood. The farraei who does these things can succeed, and though he may not have all the luxuries of city life he will have other and more desirable things to take their place. He will have better air, more peaceful sur roundings. He will not be subject to the temptations of the citiea It is my opinion that the young man of today, and especially the country young man, has as much of a chance now as he evei did in the history of the country. Rewards of Ability and Character. Hon. Thomas L. James, ex-postmaster general, says that the rewards of today for bright young men are as bril liant as they ever were, if indeed they are not more brilliant. "But," he said, "it depends altogeth er on the young man whether he should leave the farm and hasten to the city or not. Some young men should never leave the farm. Some should get away as fast as steam will carry them. Don't understand me to mean?that the bright ones should always leave and only the dull ones should stay. It requires intel ligence of a high order to be a good farmer, and oftentimes the bright boy, if he likes farming, will do better on the old homestead than anywhere else. But it requires intelligence to succeed anywhere, and it also requires hard work and more than ever before some sort of preparation for the occupation adopted. The trouble with so many young men who fail to get on as they Would like to nowadays is that they are not willing to buckle down and adapt themselves to circumstances. They start out ill prepared for life's battle because they have been too lazy as boys to fit themselves for the fight. They try to ekimp their hours of work. They try to get all they earn and a little more. Men who prepare themselves as best they can, try to earn more than they get and are always ready to work suc ceed somehow. Of course chance and, still more, ability have much to do with the degree of their puccess. Brains on the I arm. Rev. Isaac K. Funk, D. D. editor ol The Voice, said: "I think the yonng men of today have a better chance than those who came before them. Thirty years ago there were more opportunities for a man of a speculative character for a man who was, so to say, adventurous. Today there is more chance toi one of solid ability than ever before in the history of the world. A man has got to climb i higher now in order to succeed because j of the vast number of persons who are educated in our public schools, and also because of the great number who pass through our colleges. Thirty years age j educational advantages were much less i than now, but the success that may be achieved is greater, and the opportu nities are far greater 'high up' than they were 80 years ago. As to the advisability of the farmer's son staying on the farm, Dr. Funk thought he could do as well at home now as ever. "I think," ho said, "that the yonng man must study scientific farming more than formerly, but a man who will put brains, into farming stands a splendid chance to succeed. He has got to raise highly bred cattle and horses in accord ance with the advanced ideas of the times, and so with crops. But the farm- er of 80 years ago would not succeed now, and one of the reasons some farm ers of today are not successful lies in their disinclination to adopt modern methods. The reader will observe that all dis cussion simmers down to the conclusion that brains, hard work and preparation are essentials of success; that given these the prize may be won either in the city or in the country, and that each must decide for himself which field of effort will be his. L D. Marshall A Woman Landscape Gardener. The interest in Miss Wilkinson's suc cess as a landscape gardener is spread ing. She was born in Manchester, and determining to devote herself to land scape gardening as a profession applied for admittance to the "class, which was one of the Crystal palace studies. At first she was told the class of studies were only intended for men, but thej finally admitted her. The celebrated landscape gardener, Edward Milner, was her instructor. Surveying, level ing, drawing plans, making estimate and staking out from plans were mas tered under him. She has been six year, professionally engaged, and besides large general practice does all the worfc of the London Public Gardens associa tion, which has secured 380 small parks for that great city in 12 years. Vans hall park, her work, was recently openeo by the Prince of Wales, who is regardec as a good critic in landscape gardening. He characterized it as one of the besl pieces of landscape gardening he hac seen. Slaking; Ivory From Milk.

They Propose to Inaasnrute Policy on the Urest KailroaO. Sew The reorganization committee of the Santa Fe has issued a circular, which has been sent as far as possible to every stockholder of the road, in which the Reinhart management is handled with extreme candor. The circular invites all the stockholders to join the protective reorganization committee and asks them to deposit their holdings in their care, in return for wnich they will get negotiable certificates of deposit in return. The circular states plainly that its aim is to prevent the foreclosure on the Santa Fe property, and to "inaugurate a new and clean administration, thoroughly repre sentative in character and is nowise identified with its present unfortunate embarrassment." The circular states forcibly that the individual holders of Block are helpless, and these results can be accomplished only by a co-operation of all of them. The circular has been kept as much a secret as was possible with its distribu tion over so large an area. A Topeka stockholder furnished the State Jour nal with a copy of the circular, which is as follows: To ttie stockholders of the Atchison, Topeka fcunta Jr'e railroad company: Dear Siks: At a meeting of the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe railroad company in New York on July 27, 15U4, the undersigned were elected as "The Atchison Protective Reorganization com mittee," with directions to take appro priate steps on behalf of the stockhold ers to avert the hostile foreclosure with which they are threatened, and to devise suitable measures of relief in the way of reorganization. Tue committee has therefore entered upon the discharge of its duties, has al ready taken steps to ascertain the exact financial condition of the company and to obtain the best estimates possible of the net earning power of the system un der the present and varying conditions, and is now preparing a plan for reorgan ization which will be based on such in formation and provide for the needB of the compauy; place it on a sure financial footing; leave its management and control directly with the stockhold ers; preserve the existing status of the mortgage securities, and at the same time call for the least possible sacritice on the part of the shareholders and oth ers interested. In view of the recent published dis closures as to irregularities practiced in the keeping of the Atchison books, as shown by tne examination of an expert accountant, the committee has not seen lit to accept as reliable any data as a basis for its calculations and estimates without first being able to verify their correctness by an inspection of the com pany's records. As soon as the correct figures can ba ascertained they will definitely submit their plan of reorganization, which vva are sure will receive the hearty support and co-operation of the stockholders. Hut it is not necessary to wait for the detailed report of the expert accountant to place in condemnation the manage ment of this corporation since 1879. Dur ing this interval the directory, the gen eral management, has remained virtually unchanged. After the reorganization of lUSJ the treasury assets of the company consisted of o,00u,OU0 in cash and $9, U00,000 in bonds. The managers have also used the proceeds of f 5,0ut,000 new "B" bonds which have teen issued. We now find them asking for $17,000,000 more. This makes a vast total of more than $35,000,UOO, (besides earnings) to be accounted for certainly an amazing ex penditure for a newly reorganized com pany during a period of less than five years. The committee has prepared a Trust Agreement under which the stockholders are requested to deposit their shares with the Trust companies named below, for which negotiable receipts will be issued, and by tne terms of which the stockholders are permitted to withdraw their stock if they so desire. Applications will be made in due time to have the negotiable certificates of de posit listed on the New York, Boston and London stock exchanges. The committee can only assume to act for those who have made au actual de posit of their holdings, In order to ena ble it to properly carry out the objects for which it is constituted, it ought to com mand the approval and support of the stockholders; hence, it is ail-important to the success of the undertaking that holders should promptly make their de posits with some one of the Trust com panies. There will be no defence to the bill of foreclosure now pending in the court. The company has defaulted on its inter est obligations and acknowledges its in ability to meet its fixed charges. Under these conditions, unless there is uni formity of action on the part of the stockholders, a decree of foreclosure is sure to follow at an early date, and to wait until that takes place is virtually to sutler the foretiture of our interests. To escape such a result immediate and concentrated action is imperative. The individual holders of stock are absolutely powerless. In a combination of stockholders lies the only guaranty of protection. To delay co-operation is to imperil, if not defeat, the ends sought to be accom plished by the committea. Will the stockholders prove so obliv ious to their interests as to stand idlv and silently by and allow this vast and valuable property, with ail its promising possibilities, to be wrested from them, and their investments, representing a face value of upwards of one hundred million dollars, to be entirely wiped out of existence? And yet this is the issue which now confronts them. The committee will be under the nec essity of engaging eminent legal counsel to appear for the stockholders and arrest such proceedings in court as may be prejudicial to their interests, and also to advise and aid in its investigations and in carrying out in proper form the plan of reorganization; and, besides, it will be obliged to incur other outlays. It appreciates the extent of the losses already sustained by the stock holders, and it has accordingly de cided, in inviting them to join the reor ganization, to impose the mildest terms consistent with the faithful performance of its duties. Should the full curposef of the com- mittee not be accomplished then the ut most tax which the stockholders will be called upon to bear will not exceed five cents per share, which is insignificant as compared with those advantages which must result from united action. Tae committee is deeply impressed with the magnitude and importance of the task assigned to it, aud will strive to insure the best results obtainable under the existing conditions. Its policy will be to favor a complete change in the management of the Atchison system and to inaugurate a new and clean administration, thoroughly representa tive ia .character and in nowise identified with its present un fortunate embarrassment. We are confident a large majority of the stock holders are in thorough accord with us as to the propriety of this course, which will go far, it ia fair to say, towards in spiring new confidence in the property and its future; and, moreover, justifying the assurance that its fiscal alfairs will be honestly aud correctly exhibited, and be directed on economical and con servative lines condusive to the best in terests of the security holders. Stockholders can make their deposits in person or by registered letter, or by express, with either of the following named depositories: Farmers' Loan and Trust Company, 22 Williams street, New York.

In addition to the statement furnished above, the circular contains press com ments regarding the Santa Fe muddle from a dozen metropolitan newspapers, in which Reinhart is criticised unmerci fully, such as tliese: "In the case of the Atchison the proper prosecuting ollicers should find no dilli- culty in obtaining Irom the receivers, who are officers of the United States court, the evidence necessary to punish those officers of the company who are re sponsible for the enormous rebates paid to shippers in violation of law."

The old soldiers of Tort Pillow Post G. A. R., have issued on address to the colored people of the city calling their attention to the fact that they have de cided to hold an annual emancipation day celebration. In this address they say there is a strong tendency among their people to drift away from the facta of history, and instead of celebrating their own inde pendence to celebrate the liberation of the West India slaves. After calling attention to thia tendency the address continues: "Believing thus, we de3ire to establish a permanent day for the celebra tion of the emancipation of Ameri can slaves, which was a result of the toil and sacrifices of hundreds of thousands of American citizens upon American soil. We have decided upon September 2i of each year, the day upon which Lincoln issued his first proclama tion on the subject of emancipation, as the day upon which to ask our people and our children to come together to do honor to the name and memory of Lincoln. Grant and the hundreds of thousands of other American heroes who laid their lives aud their all upon their country's altar in the name of American freedom. "We therefore appeal to every true American in thia city and county to aid us in making this celebration to us what the fourth of July is to our white fellow citizens. 'There will necessarily be some ex penses attached to this celebration. We, therefore, ask each of you to contribute to the proper committee at the proper time money or provisions, be it ever so much or little, according as you feel able to give. Our object is to first teach patriotism to our people ana our poster ity, and second to increase the small fund in our treasury for the benefit of da pendent old soldiers, their widow aud orphans. 'Our first celebration will take place in this city at City park, Saturday, Sept 22. A programme with full particulars will be given later on. Soliciting committees with proper authority will call upon you for contributions. Please remember the old soldiers and help the cause of patriot ism and charity.

Tho flexibility which has so Ions' been desired by jewelers in the coa ttruetion of certain articles seems to hare been attained in the beautiful tiara of diamond shewn. It la de-big-ned m a very liKh"; and graceful fctylo and can be converted Into four dillerent articl-33. Firit there is thes handsome central crown. This may bo taken to pieces and merely left as a tiara; the sides, by means of clasps, ere joined tog-ether and produce a smaller model. Then the larg-e tiara, supplemented by the two narrow bands f jewels winch rest on the hair, is converted into a massive diamond neck-lack, the s -nailer one in turn being similarly adopted.

Then, strain, it is possiblo to have merely -in?-le-Rtono necklet frot the junction .f th two slender binds of the coro net. The nehioveniint is the more re markable sin'-.? it has not so far been found possible to obtain flexibility in a floral dos.i;rn. This trinket is valued fit the modest sum of 33.5CJ. Another m del, comparatively low prieed, bat also worthy of much ad miration, is a diamond and pearl aigrette for the hair, which can be de tached and worn as a brooch. The third figure is a shell hairpin sur mounted by t-.vo dair.ty little Mercury wing's united by a knot of diamonds. In these days of much dressed heads handsome hair ornaments are becom injj daily more popular. It is a fur cry from these jeweled playthings of tho wealthy to the simple, little, ribbon ornamint of the every day -irl is probably just as happy as she of the diamond crown. Many a youn Jjlrl manages to look delightfully pretty with a dainty rib bon bow in her hair instead of a glit tering jeweled one. Two styles are particularly popular For the first, four bows of velvet ribbon are tig-htly tied, with t wo upta id ing- ends of the biime. I'ose-eolored velvet is the fa vorite, and when a tiny bow of white lace Ls introduced the effect is eharrninj- on pretty brown hair. These can be wcrn with a rou leau of velvet or ciin be fastened in the hair with a fine, eteel crescent hair pin. The other popular bow real ly consists of four ends of crossway velvet, arrang-ed two on each side, with a tie ia the center. The outer ends are long-er than the othtrs and are cut in Vandykes. On orai.ye, blue, or pink bows cf this kind a narrow jet trimming- is run on a little way within tha dg-e. Another daiaty ornament for the hair is a rouleau of blue velvet and live rosettes of bine silk liase. The xouleau is worn across the top and around one side of the coil of the hair. Near the frV.nt end u butterfly ia light ly placed alwve a cod-sized rosette. The smaller rosettes are placed on the "band at intervals, two beinjr quite at the end. Comrttli: Servlco In Saxony. Women whose liv;s are made miser able by the peculiarities of domestic3 will read with interest, if not appreci ation, this iieru conc erning' the laws of Saxnny, which are indeed somewhat curious, rel ttinar to servants. For in stance, the mistress, is required to allow the bervant one pound of butter and one pound of coffee per month, or their equivalent in money. If the servant furnishes her own bedding- she receives three farthing's per night for so doing-. Three shillincrs per mouth is allowed the servant for washing-, and she receives five per cent, on all purchases shts makes. She must g-ive a month's notice before leaving her place, and must keep a book for recommendations, in which, upon leav ing her place, her mistress is com pelled to state tha cause of the serv ant's leaving, and also what is her character.

To Test the Heat of the Oven. The French method of testing the heat of an oven is a very simple one. It is done with a piece of white paper. If the oven is too hot the paper will blacken or blaze up; if it becomes a light brown the oven is right for pastry; if it turns a dark yellow the tempera ture is proper for baking tread and the heavier kinds of cake; if light yel low it is just fit for sponge cakes and the lighter desserts.

A HUMBLE FAILURE. I was getting my first lesson in business. ".Now, my boy," said il. Jenks, the Superiutendent, "aftcrail I have toid you, 1 want to give you a bit of warning: If you want any candy, eat all you want in the store, but never take a piece away unless you uay for it. So with everything else. Itemeniber that in business 6trict honesty must be observed." I bad been in the store Jur some weeks, selling anything from self binders to matches for the store was the only one in the village when one day a "man came slouching in and asked for the "boss." There was nothing striking about him. Ilia race impressed me as being two-thirds covered by a tawny beard, and his dark, uncombed hair hun down over his eyes, contrasting disagreeably with his dusty complexion. A loose cotton shirt, drawn into wrinkles by half a suspender supporting a pair of patched "overalls," with a pair of heavy-soled shoes, identified the man as one of the poor farmers of the plain north of the village. To the "Doss" he explained that three years ago he had traded his 2-year-old calf for a colt, arid that the coit was now a horse, and that a couple of days ago he had tiaded his second cow lor an other horse. Now, having two horses, if he had a mowing machine, he could do his own harvesting very quickly, and then he could mow his ne.ghbor's fields "on shares," and thus pay for the mower. Could the boss let him have a mower and 1 ay for it in the fall? lie had never gone into debt so heavily before, and he knew it was a risk, but he thought he could do it, and then his Billy was awfully smart he had learned his letters already, and he was only six. If he tould make a little money with the mower he could buy Billy books and a coat to go to school in the vil lage. I thought the man grew faintly animated as he spoLe ot Biliy. .Evi dently he was makiag tho greatest speculation of his lire lor Billy's edu cation. The result was that when he drove home a mower was tied to the haif-dozen boards on four block wheels which were his wagon, and the same day I entered in the day hook of the store: "June ;!d, Kph raim Goodnow, to one mower, Sou. Three months at 1 per cent, monthly." tepU 15 had passed, and Ephraim Goodnow had not paid any of the three bills for bl. bo sent him. Mr. Jenks, therefore, sent his assistant to collect the biil, saying that in such a bad year, when all the crops had failed, the store could not alford to have outstanding accounts. But tho assistant reported thai Goodnow had no money wherewith to pay the bill, and the only way to collect it was to take his wheat and at the present low rate and the poor year it would take nearly his whole stock or his horses, which were worth about $0 each. 'Well," said Mr. Jenks, "I need a coupie of hoises to hurry on the har vesting, tio up to Goodnow to-mor row and take his horses. I'll give him sixty dollars for the span. If he objects well, we can collect it by law." The afternoon of the next day then, the assistant and I started out 10 cross the prairie to the hills, twenty miles away, where Goodnow lived. The ride across the prairia did anything but cheer our spirits, bearing the foothills, the grass grew scantier and the sand ridges more frequent, and the prairie dog3 from their mounds barked at us every few steps. A glisteniug green enak crawled slowly around a sagebush. Toward sunset we reached Goodnow's Lome. Home: A hole about four 1 feet deep bad been dug in the ground and covered with untrimmed poles meeting at right angles. The po.es bad been covered with dry branches and these with earth. One gable was walled ud with branches and earth like the roof, while the other was closed with sawed boards in which was a door Two panes of triads, set with out a frame in the boards and held in place by a nail at each side, nerved tor windows. To one side of the 'dug out" poles had been plantei in the ground and covered with willows and straw and earth that was the stable for the horses and the cow. The cow, thin at the sides, wa3 tied to a post under the shed, and a woman dressed in a dirty yellow gown was milking her. Back of the "house" was a sand pile, where two half-naked childrer, were throw ing handfuls of sand at each other; from the inside of the house I thought 1 heard the wail of a baby. Goodnow was just coming in from hia day's work, driving his horses be fore bis mowing machine. At hi3 Bide walked a boy about 12, whose dragging gait and duil look bespoke too well the mao he would be. On one of the horses rode a little white haired boy, about 5 or dresed in a airly simi ad a t&SJ't 221U Jfcl 1.1,313 1 which was ripped up one leg nearly to the waist it was Billy. 2sear the shed the horses stopped, and Billy, with his little hands, struck; his horse on the neck aod cried, "Whoa, whoa, Jac, whoa," and thai horse, seemingly well pleased, put his ears forward and turned his head to get a look at his lit.le friend. While the assistant was talking to Goodnow I went up to the boy and said: iTello, Billy." lie io ked at me with a pair of blue dancing eyes and answered very correctly: "Hello, sir." "You can read, can't you, Billyf I continued. At that he grew excited and cried, "Mamma, mamma, I can read, can't I?" The mother, who had heard my question, and whose greatest delight, was Billy's accomplishments, t,ult milking the cow, ran down into the house and brought out a little tat tered boolc of two or three dozon pages. To my surprise it was the re mains of a copy of Luther's Smaller Catechism. Besting the book on the collar of the horse on which he sab, Billy read distinctly from the first re maining page, "For of one blood hath God made all men," and with out hesitancy the whole of Luther's Comment. As he ended Goodnow came up and explained to his wire the object of our visit. He had offered to give back the mower and one horse for the use of it without a horse he must carry his wood fifteen miles from the mountains, and carry his wheat to the mill, which was as far away. But the assistant had in sisted on the horses or his wheat the food for the winter and had threatened court proceedings. "1'ou see. mother," the farmer said, "I s pose Billy can't go to school this winter." I thought his voice wa9 a little husky as be spoke. The wife and mother said nothing, but their eyes tilled with tears. The big boy,- with clenched hands, leaned against the' now useless mower, and looked straight at us while we led the horses away, while tears cut furrows in the dirt on his face. The little ones of the sandpile also began to under stand what was going on, and howled and rolled in the sand. Little Biily sat daed upon the ground where he j had been lifted from the horse. "When we tied the horses to our wagon he ran to his mother and hid his lace in her lap, crying, not loud, but piteously: "Mamma, they're taking away my Jack mamma, mamma." Goodnow cleared his throat. The sua must have been low, for I saw his eyes glisten. I, too. felt something moving up my throat until I could not speak. "Damme," said the assistant when we had driven over the prairie for some time, "that was a fine piece of work. in the city these horses will bring $100 any day." Last vacation I passed over the same prairie, and the scene of six yea s before came vividly tu my mind. 1 stopped at Goodnow's place. A yellow-haired boy of 12 years or so was in the yard. I cried: "Hello, Billy." The boy stared at me. "Is your father at home?" N aw." "Do you still read, Billy?" "Xaw." And he turned and left me. LTar vard Advocate. Training to Speak. Bishop Wilberforce was noted for the variety of his speeches and ser mons, even when they all treated of tne same subject. His addresses at confirmation and at missionary meet ings were remarkable for their varia tions on the same themes. A friend who had heard him speak, day after day for several weeks, in behalf of the fcociety for the Propagation of the Gospel, expressed his surprise that be could treat the same subject in such a variety of ways. The elo quent preacher replied: "1 owe my facility mainly to my father. He t on pains to form in me the habit of speaking. lie would see to it that I thoroughly acquainted myself with a given subject, and then re luire me to ppeak on it, without notes, and trusting to the inspiration of the moment for suitable words. This practice strengthened my mem ory and cultivated the power of mentally arranging and dividing subject- The Earl of Chatham trained his soil, William Fitt, in a similar way. Pitt was the familiar friend or Will iam Wilberforce, the philanthropist, and the father of the bishop. Dount less be learned from 1'ltt this method of cultivating the faculty of think ing and speaking on one's legs. Hunting Foie "with Dynamite. A fox hunt with dynamite was the novel sport of farmers near ioint Pleasant, Bucks County, a few davs ago For a long time the farmers had suffered from the incursions of some adroit thief upon their poultry reserves. The thefts were so daring, yet mysterious, that it was decided to set a watch. So when John Swope heard a racket in his hennery he ran out. He was just in time to see a big fox, with a nice fat pullet in his mouth, scamper away. The alarm was spread, and a number of Farmer Swope's neighbors assisted him in tracking the fox. They trailed him to his den, under a huge rock, and were then confronted witn the prob lem of routing him. They got some dynamite, tired it, and in a few min utes out came, not one but fonr foxes, half stunned and blinded. The animals were Icilltd fast as they appeared, and then the den was, walled up.

It cost Uncle Sam over a million men to place the American flag in the proud position it occupies to-day among the nations cf the earth. In the war of the devolution 52 sea men of the regular navy were killed in battle, while a considerably larger number were killed In the privateers that played such an important part in that strugg.e. Of the 642 sea men killed, 311 perished when the United tates 2 gun frigate Ran dolph, Capt. Nicholas Biddie. was blown up by a shot from the British 74-gun ship of the line Yarmout h, March 7, 1778, which Biddie had heroically attacked in order that h s valuable convoy of seren vessels might escape. About the same num ber of soldiers were killed in the land battles, but this does not in. elude the 9,600 Americans who died in the British prison ships in Walla bout Bay. In all 12,000 men per isned in these ships, but about 1,500 of them were French sailors captured near the American coast. The total number of Americans who lost theh lives in the Revolution Is about 12,. 000. In the wars with France and Tripoli, 179S to l.k05. aiiout 1. 5 Americans were killed. This does not include the number who died in tha French dungeons at Guadeloupe or in the slave pens at Tripoli, of whom no accurate estimate can be made In the war of 1812, 734 men were killed in sea rights in which the reg ular government cruisers were en gaged. But this does not include the number lost b shipwreck, the sloop of war Wasp foundering at sea with all hands (loSi on board, iseither does th s include the loss in American private. s which was nearly eijual to that sustained Dy the navy. The number killed in land battles was about 450, so that tho total loss in the war of 1812 is about 2.0OO men. In the war with Algiers, 1815, Mexico, 184iito 184S, and in the minor conflicts between 181 and 1?60 about 1,000 men were killed in battle. But the greatest losses, of course, were in the Civil War, where brother was arrayed against brother. 1'rooa bly not more than 1,50 ,C00 men of the North effectively participated iu 6uppresing the Rebellion. Of these 5 i.ouO were killed in battle and o". 000 died of wounds in hospitals, while 184,000 died from disease con tracted in the army. Ho accurate) estimate of the looses sustaiued by the Southerne s has been made, but it Is probable that they wre fully equal to those sustained by the Northerners, bringing the total to about (00,000. Adding to this num. ber the 400,000 who weie perma nently disabled by disease or crippled by wounds we have the appalling ag gregate or a million men lost in that strife. Of the 220,000 Confederates who were mde prisoners during the war 2ri,43 died ot wounds or disease during their captivity. Of the Unionists about 200,000 were made prisoners, of whom 40,000 died in prison. From these figures it will lie seen that Memorial Lay is in honor Of over a million men who have given up their lives or lim lis in the deieu -e of the Lag. New Yoric Sun. Hot Weather Diet.

AN OFFICIAL HACK RIDE. 'Ibe Police infj: Let of Talking; About Dfliuly sheriff Y ilk ergon. The police are busy circulating a story about tue o:2cial misconduct of Deputy SUeriil T. C Wilkersoa in charging up enough mileage to pay for a hack ride. The facts in the cas are as follows: Ed W ilson and Cl aries Nolan were ar rested just outside the city limits at Shorey on the early morning of August 10th. The men were tramps and had been raising a row with the Kock Island trainmen. The police had been tele phoned that they were there and Otlicera Meele, Davis. Gordon and Russell went to see about it. Finding it outside their jurisdiction they returned to North To j ekB where they got Under SheriS Tom Wilkerou and took him along. 1 he men were arrested with others and found guilty the next day. la makin g out hi i voucher for the trip. Mr. Wilkersou entared the mileag-e at lifty miles. The distance traveled does not amount to ni ire than live. The police any lie is not altogether entitled to that as they did all the work and furn ished the wagon, the patrol wagon being used. In addition to this Mr. Wilkersoa says that when the police were at first in fvrmed of the presences of the tramps they refused to walk out to the place and eo hire 1 a hack. This they had no right to do otlicially, and when it came to pay ing for the hack tbe police were ready to back out as the." had no fees coming nd would consequently have had to pay for it out or their o'vn p'ockets.

EXPLODED IN THE AIR. Resolutions Adopted at the Popu list League Meeting, DENOUNCING CITY ADMINISTRATION Beane It Hoes JVot 'Compel" the llai bf r Asphalx Company to do on Itepairlns the streets. 8. M. Scott, the Populist nominee for congressman in this district, hap pened into town last evening just in time to make a speech at the meeting of the Populist League at the League rooms on Eighth street. At the llrst part of the meeting, reso lutions denouncing the mayor and the city administration for its alleged course in the matter of the repairs of the as phalt pavement were adopted. The amusing part of the resolutions i3 that the contract with the Barber com pany expired long ago; the framer of them doesn't seem to be acquainted with that fact, which makes the Populist league's action somewhat ridiculous. The resolutions, are as follows: Whereas, The record of the Republi can party in municipal, county, state and national alfa.rs has demonstrated that it ia the friend of monopolies, trusts and corporations; and W hereas, The record of the present Republican administration of this city is very significant in its treatment of the Barber asphalt company, one of the greatest monopolies ia tho United States; and W hereas, A large portioa of said com pany's work was condemned by the Cofran administration at the expiration of the hve years guarantee of same, and just before said administration went out of power; and Whereas, Said work embraces portions of Kansas aveuue, Jacks;n, Q liucy and cross streets, that were sndiy in need of repair at the time condemned, and the asphalt company and its bondsmen wore noUtled that said pavement must be placed in good condition according to contract; and Whereas, The cost of placing said pavement in good condition will exceed 5,000; and, Whereas, The present Republican ad ministration is eitner corruptly or iguo rantly repairing said pavement at the expense of taxpayers that have already been robbed by the asphalt monopoly instead of making them live up to thir contract and bond; and, Whereas, lhe live year guarantee upon other work done by that company will soon expire, upoa which a great deal of repairing will have to be dune which will be vary expensive, and which should be done by said company instead of by the taxpayers; and. Whereas, The city finances are in no condition to stand a wasteful and extrav agant use eveu in the interest of Repub lican pet monopolies; therefore, be it Resolved, That the mayor and coun cilmen of the city be notified by the presentation of a copy of these resolu tions to either do their duty in the mat ter and compl the asphalt company or their bondsmen to make the repairs needed, and thti3 save the taxpayers f 5,000, or resign and let some honorable and trustworthy citizens of the city be selected who will do their duty and not waste the public funds. Mrs. Josephine Hague read an origi nal story aud by request repeated her 'Ashamed of Kansas" poem. Willard Strubla of the state superin tendent's office was then called oa and made a speech hi which he said that he had been told by a Republican from there that that there are no Republicans at all in tho western part of the state. Ia speaking of the emancipation of labor, he said that was the object of the Populist party and that it must succeed. If it fails ia this tight now it means that it will be years before labor will ever have another chance so good at capital. E. E. Chesney, candidate for county at torney, was thens and made a few re marks. He declared that the time Is coming whea "ao maa shall labor and hunger. "We are at a crisis. Your oppressors are in your midst. They would take every bit of liberty you have away to morrow if they could. They will not hesitate to slaughter even, if they con sider it necessary to accomplish their ends. I refer you to the recent blood shed at Chicago. "It is said by the Republicans that we are the party of dispair. Way, we are the only party of hope; the only party that holds out to its people any hope for the future. I believe in irrigation aud food roads. Employ the unemployed, hat's statesmanship. Why, Coxey is the only real statesman that the east has produced ia rears (applause) S. M. Scott was now called for. and made quite a leugthy address, ia which he de clared and had the figures for it, that in the last tnreo years the Populists had saved the state 130.971.29 on the state printing alone. Just before Mr. Scott began to speak somebody who had been out oa picket duty returaed and announced that the Republican maeting on Seventh street haa just adjourned because there was no one present but three men, two boys and a horse. A brother arose aud introduced a resolution of condolence to the lead ers of the Republican meeting ia partic ular and to the party ia general, aad it was adopted. Mr. Scott further said that the fight ia his district was very encouraging1 to him and that he was sure he would lie elect ed. Ia speaking of the present congress and its misdeeds he said: "1 tell you there'll be a big change when Coxey and Scotty and Deos get tnere." Applnuse. Mrs. Strubla then addressed a few re marks to the meeting on the subject of the women aud declared that the women were now ready to assist in the cam paign. Sue said: "The Populist party has al ways been the friend of the women and the womea are with the Populist party in this campaign heart and soul. The Republicans turned their backs on the women. But still you see some women on the Republican platforms. We want a place on the Populist platforms in this county." She announced that Mrs. Helen John son of Pennsylvania would be in Topeka Wednesday and said that the wosieu had purpossd giving her a meeting at the city park on luat evening. A brother then arose and said that tbe league was going to have a meeting at Parkdnle on Weduesday evening aud that urs. John son could speak there. This brougat war on the brother's head immediately. The women didn't want to be sidetracked in that way, and they said so. Ttiey said tney would furniaa a speaker of their own number at. tha Parkdale matin, but Mrs. Johnson mut have a bigger meeting. Tuo only way out then is to have th? committees of tho factions met and ar ranga lor a spucial meeting for Mrs. Johuson if possible. "Gen." Sanders of the commonweal was in tho back part of the room, and just then there ws a demand for him, but he asked to be excused because he wasn't feeling1 well, aad they excused him. Political Notes. Ewing Herbert received two votes in the Browa county Populist convention for probate judge. J. Ralph Burton is a brave man. When he spoke in Atchison a short time ago he took of his coat and vest. David Overmyer has accepted an invi tation to address the Democracy of Mis souri at Peril Springs, September 6 and 7, the opening of the state campaign and the date of the meeting of the Demo cratic state press association. Mrs. J. K. Burton accompanies her husband on his campaign through the state. She was with him Monday on a sixiy-mile drive from Barnard to the Blue Hills' meetin; in the northern part of the state, and then across to Lincoln. Judge McDonald of Ft. Scott is said to be still seriously ill from tbe assault made on him by Warden Chase. UN IO NPACIFiC "ROUTE For tha Grand Array and Navy National Kucinipmciir, flttaburc F., Sept. IO, 11 aad 13.
