It is in the Interests of Morality and respectability. Those Usin;; the German Ritual Strongly Denounced. Waphingtov, Aug. 23. Preparations for the graud parade of the uuifortn rank engrossed the atteutioti of the Pythians today. Many thousand, visitors were attracted to the tented camp by the exhibition drills of several divisions. The. eonclae of the iuureina lodge was called to order by Supreme Chancal lor V. W.

The finan cial condition is most satisfactory. The order universal is in h most prosperous condition, and the times are propitious for a oiuch greater increase during the nest two years than ever before in our history. ".No email ariount of friction has been engen dered d lruig the past two v ears, growing out of tho action of the Kansas. ifr session, dissolving "all co'uieetiou heretofore nominally recognized as ex isting between the l'ythian oisters and the mrirerae lodge, and thereby bringing this institution under the ban of pro scription through tue adoption of a new ritual. I am of the opinion we are bound to lift the ba i. This can be done by special edict making an exception so far as the operation of the law may effect them and lett.ii; it stand as to all other organizations." Under the heal of "the German ques tion," the supreme chancellor says: "You are confronted with an opeu defiant ele ment of malcontents, who, having vio lated every principle of honor by having taiieu the la in their own hands and translated the ritual, now have the hardi hood to come belore you, reeking with treason from head to foot, and under tiie guise of loyalty ask you to grant them something the.." already have. "The time has come when America should be Americanized, and how hard it may be temporarily, the successful accomplishment thereof will be worth all it may cost. I have urged upon our German brothers the necessity of losing their identity ;.s foreigners by adopting the English language, becoming in fact American citizens, as they all profess to be, an 1 of eiim. nating from their names and societies the prefix of German-Amer-ic in, and thus relieving themselves of the unenviable distinction of being for eigners at all. "Why should anv fully recognized citizen of tii.s country desire to bo cl-v-sed as a foreigner of any kind, when the designation brings to him a certain elf meat of doubtful respectability com pared with tha. ol simple 'American citi zens h ip.' "Who are thg 'foreigners' of this coun try, as general.' accepted by everybody? Acersaiu dint eputable scum from Eu rope t.iat have been dumped in upon us during the past twenty years, headed by anarchism, inafiaism, sociali.-m, huod lumism, dead-beatism and a thousand other 'isms,' that are being secretly cul tivated to the disad'autage of our coun try's interests. "I have been accused of classing our German broth ers with the ab w, but in stead have said to them: 'I want to help you lift yourselves out of such an uneu vi able classitic it. on by having each en dorse the English language, practice what you endorse.' "Some years ago this body granted permission to the grand lodges to locally legislate as they might desire upon the saloon element question, and the eligi bility of owueid and tenders thereof to membership. Under this permission several graud lodges since have declared saloon keepers and bar-tenders ineligi ble upon the ground of their business engagement having a strong tendency to cultivate immorality, lawlessness and other disrep U tble habits contradic tory to the tea things of our order. "If it was the wish ol the supreme lodge to experiment when permission was granted grand lodges to locally test this question, I a:n glad to report the ex periment most satisfactory. In fact, so strongly urn I convinced that the step is one in the interest of law, order, mor ality, respectability, better citizenship and a higher Knighthood that I am con strained to ccceiude that the time has come when we, as a great fraternity should put aside policy, expediency or any other question of d out't that may stard in the wij and declare ourselves the leaders of reform by manfully facing this important; question and declaring ti-ut no saloon keeper, bar tender or pro fessional gambler shall be considered as eligible to apply for membership) in any lodge of this order. "It is suggested that a rule be adopted permitting such divisions as may desire to exchange the sword for the gun aud thus bring the body more in harmony with current military id jas. I am strong ly of the opinion, says the supreme chan cellor, 'that a general change from sword to gun would bring a great revival aud influx of new members into the mil itary branch of our order. I suggest that steps be taken to obtain all tiie di visions upon this subject with the de termination if the majority so wish, to make the change." 'Ihe report of the Supreme Keeper of Records and Seal R. I. White says: The number of sul ordinate lodges December 31, 18J3, was u,OOS, and the number of members 44d,tllo, a net gain durinsr the calendar year of 43J lodges aud 29,261 m -mbers, and a net gain dur ing the years lbOl and 1SJ:J of l,i-07 lodges and Sd,6Jl members.

We nave taken the iirst step and that, is always the hardest, and having doue that muci and done it per fectly, it will be easy to proceed to a full real zatlon of tariff refori i." Mr. Wiison was astied if he considered that the principle of t iriu reform char acterized the present ac, even though the rales were not all that was wanted. "Yes," said ho, "the principle is there and alter all the great -'si snuggle has been to secure recogtii.ioti of ihe prin ciple rather than the perfection o; de tail. The detail must c jiji j by the irre sistabie force of c.rcum :.iuces now that the principle is obtained." "What is there in the assertion that a resumption of agitation next winter will bring a recurrence of business unrest?" "dhat is wholly unwarranted," said Mr. Wilson. "There nee i be no general bill reaching all industries, so that the legislation will not be u jh as to iiifect commercial aifiurs generally.

A TIME TOJEJOICL Both Houses of Congress Ad journ at 2 O'clock Today. Few Members Left to Witness the Ciosinir Hours. ALL SEEMED GLAD. Many Visitors Were Present to Share Their Joy. Death Scene of 531 Congress Placid and Uninteresting. Washington-, Aug. 23. The last day of the second session of the fifty-third congress was attended by just a score of senators and a large concourse of people who packed the galleries to their fullest capacity. Most of these who were in the galleries were ladies. There were also many visiting Knights of Pythias. The diplomatic gallery was the only one which was not occupied. Eveu the aisles of the galleries and the doorways swarmed with visitors. On the floor there was an air of relief at the approaching close of the session, visible on the faces and iu the demeanor of those who have been at their posts so long. Chaplain McCarthy in a long prayer included not only the customary ollicers of the government, the president aud v.ce president and senators, but even the senate pages and the venorable Isaac Lassett iu his appeal for grace. All political differences and party dickerings were laid aside for the time being and those who were hurling bitter anathemas at each other, were today laughing and joking with each other in the friendliest possible manner. A message was received from the house after the reading of yesterday's journal and then Mr. Hansom, (Dem. X. C.) olfered the customary resolu tion to notifv the president that the two adjourn, aud the houses Mere now ready to '1 he resolution was agreed to, vice president appointed Mr. (Dem. X.

At that hour the vice president announced that the senate was again in session. A message was received from the house announcing the death of George Li. Shaw of Wisconsin. In the absence of the two Wisconsin senators, Mr. White offered the customary resolutions of re gret, and the vice president appointed Senators Mitchell of Wisconsin, Cullom, Davis, Coke aud Kyle to atteud the fun eral. At 12:05 a further recess was taken until 1 :3J p. m. At 1:30 p. m. the senate was again called to order, and the committee ap pointed to called upon tiie president an nounced that he h.ul no further commu cations to make to congress.

Today the galleries of the house were packed to overflowing wit h visiting Pylhiaus and their families, drawn hither to witness the closing scenes of the dying session, which was to expire at 2 o'clock. The attendance on the floor was very light however, the ireat majority of the members having already gone to their homes. The resignation of Representative Oates, recently elected governor of Ala bama, to take effect December 3, was laid before the house. In accordance with the usual custom, Mr. Wilson (Dem., W. Va.) ulTered a reso IulIoii which was adopted with out division for the appointment of a Committee of three members of the house to meet a similar committee of the senate and wait on the piesident and inform him congress was ready to adjourn, and ascertain if he had any further communication to make. The speaker appointed es-rs. Wilson, (Dem W. Va.); Holm .n, (Dem., Indiana) aud Hepburn, (Hep., low.,). The committee appointed to wait upon the president, reported that the president had no further coinmuaieatiou to make to congress. 'Ihe pre-ideut also requested me, said Mr. Wilson, "to congratulate the house and senate on the close of their labors and to wish the individual members a happy and prosperous vacatiou."

Major Morrill said the story about the construction of car works, to give em ployment to the ex-Pullman employes at his town, was news to him as he had not heard of the scheme until yesterday.

AIMEDJTTHEM. Senators Think Cleveland's Let ter Was for Their Benelit. But They Do Not Care to Speak of It. HOPED TO BE SPARED. Congressman Sperry Hoped for No More Letters. Members of House Ridicule the President's Attitude. Some Members Commend Letter to ditchings. His Washington. Aug. 23. The few sena tors at the capitol today refused to ex press any opinion for publication on the letter of President Cleveland to Mr. Catch ings. The Democratic senators said they had nothing to say but they seemed to feel that it was aimed at them. The Republicans said there seems to be no necessity at present for them to get into the fight in the ranks of their opponents aud they would not be quoted regarding it. Members of the house were not reti cent as the senators were. Representative Sperry (Dem., Conn.) who opposed the bill said: "I was in hopes the president would spare his party the infiictioD of another ietter. i he tariff bill is distinctly a party measure, aud according to the presi dent's letter to Mr. Wilson it is a measure permeated with "perfidy and dishonor." If that is a correct description of the bill, I do not see on what grouud the Demo cratic party can ask to be continued in power. "It seems by the second letter that the tariff discussion must be continued. This position must be very disquieting to all the business interests of the whole coun try. The democrats this fall are placed on the defensive by these two letters, first defending a policy of "perfidy and dishonor." and second, by threatening all the business interests of the country with further attempts at tariff legisla tion. "Every campaign speaker this fall is compelled to defend his party against the allegations contained in those two letters, or else defend the president against the allegations in the letters themselves. My own opinion of the bill is that there is no perfidy or dishonor in the bill itseir, or in" the motives of the senators instrumental in it9 passage. It is a more mature and equitable measure than the Wilson bill, aud will produce a revenue which the Wilson bill professedly would" not, aud that is what a tariff bill is for. "It is to bo hoped that the president will not write any more campaign docu ments for the Republicans, pending the coining election." Representative Johnson (Dem., Ohio), said: "The effect of his failing to sign the bill and writing a letter, will be to intensify and contiuue the fight against protection not protection as he puts it, but Democratic protection." Representative Warner (Dem. N. Y.): "The president's letter will meet with the unqualified ap proval from all true friends of revenue reform and especially on the party policy there outlined and tiie pro gramme of aggressive action, first against trusts and then in favor of free raw materials and in favor of every oth er Democratic principal to reach the ful fillment of which the ranks of tariif com bination must first be broken." Representative Maguire (Dem. Calif.): I consider the letter a very val uable contribution to the Dem ocratic literature of the campaign, because it will remove from the minds of the people generally the impression derived from the presi dent's letter to Mr. Wilson that the tariff bill as amended by the senate was re garded by him as vicious and its enact ment perfidious and dishonorable. "His present letter specifically points out his objections to the meas ure while fully conceding its merits as a great step iu the direction of true tariff reform and as affording a new and excellent point of vantage in the fight for Democratic principles."

Kan.: My Dear Sir I have just read the resolutions reported by you aud others and adopted at your county convention. 1 heartily appreciate the reference to and endorsement of my official course and desire to say a word of the resolutions generally. Your convention has put it self squarely on the record on the money question and I am truly glad of it. One of the strong objections which has beeu urged by the gold standard people is that the silver dollar is too large and cumbersome to be used excopi in the smaller transactions, and this is true so far as the coin itself is coucemed. To enlarge the silver dollar materially will destroy its use as money and every one knows it. I came to the conclusion some time ago, aud have maintained, that we must use the silver dollar substantially as it is or not at all. Ihe ratio between gold and silver is everywhere regulated by arbi trary statutory law and it is folly to talk of changing the ratio and re-coining every time the prices of raw material fluctuate. It ia the flaished product which we say is worth a hundred cents and uot the rough material. However, your convention proposes to treat it along with gold, not as a commodity, but as money of final payment, or'wlucii re quires no redeemer. This I understand is true bi-metaliisrn.

The defenders of the Populist admin istration are now trying to make it ap pear that the administration is not re sponsible for the birth of a child to Hhu nah Kenzie, the insane woman at the asy lum. The task is too great, however, and they have already fallen down In thair effort to uphold the present state board of charities and the administration. These defenders say these insane peo ple were allowed to get together under the administration of Dr. Eastman who was afterwards succeeded by Dr. 11c Casey. Dr. Eastman was superintended of the asylum when these insane creatures met each other, but the "reform" board of charities had virtually taken the manage ment of the institution out of his hands and had already appointed Miss Mattie Jackman of Kingman as housekeeper. It appears to be directly due to Mita Jackman's lack of knowledge or care lessness that the unfortunate nffair oc curred. Several years ago Dr. Eastman had some trouble in keeping the men and women who worked iu the kitchen out of mischief and he appointed .Miss Laura Wooden, an elderly woman of sharp eyes and great executive ability, as housekeeper to straighten out matters in the kitchen. Miss Wooden did her work well aud as one of the employes expressed it, "There was no moukeying under her administration." One of the first acts of the "reform" Btate board of charities was to depose Miss Wooden from her position as housekeeper and appoint to that posi tion Miss Mattie Jackman of Ivingmau, a friend of W. L. Brown, secretary of the state senate, who secured her appoint ment. She took charge of the kitchen June 1, 18U3. Miss Jackman doubtless meant all right, but she did not understand how to manage an institution of the kind, and the employes in the kitchen did about as they pleased. One of the employes in the kitchen was Hannah Kenzie, the unfortunate woman who is uow the mother of the child born last week. Miss Jackman undoubtedly did not know the woman was getting into trouble, but Hannah and William Scanlon a pa tient who works in the engineer's depart ment and who is perfectly sane most of the time became intimate with the re sult already known. Miss Jackmau resigned her position aa housekeeper this spring and was mar ried to Dr. Cloud one of the physicians in the institution. DEBS WILL COME LATER. Impossible For Him to Kpeak In Topeka on Labor IJuy. Eugene V. Debs has not yet been heard from on the labor day' proposition, aud it is now certain that he will not be here. The letter mentioned in the Ktatk Journal was written to him a week or two ago by Harry W. Chapman, the sec retary of the A. H. U. in Topeka, aud no renly nas been received. There seems to be a mistake, too in the announcement that he would speak at Kansas Ci'y on that day, as he is also billed to appear at Terre Haute, Iud., his home ou that day. Kausas will have an opportunity to hear Mr. Debs soon, lie has consented to make four speeches in the state dur ing the campaign, and Topeka will get the first one. H. J. Sloat said to a Jour nal reporter that Mr. Debs' Topeka ad dress has not yet been dated, but that it will occur some time duriutr the first two weeks in October. His speech will be on the subject of labor, and will take place at one of the parks. A day will be' made of the occasion, and special trains may be run into the city. "OH, D THE TARIFF." So Said Mr. Cleveland to a Iieiuocratie Sen tur. Washington, Aug. US. "Oh, d n a message; 1 have have said enough about the tariff bill." This was the answer President Cleve land made yesterday to a Democratic senator who had called at the White House to urge the signiug of the bill with a message stating the views of the executive. The president's vigorous expression was not intended for publication, but it was such a re markable utterance that it was promptly recited to other senators. Nothing could be more illustrative of Mr. Cleveland's attitude and temper at this time. The president will fcimply ignore th crowning act of the Democratic senate and house, and he will show his con tempt for their tariff work by permitting' the bill to lie on the table of the sec re tary of the treasury until it becomes a law. FRUIT PRICES STEADY. Good Demand Keeps Csil i fornl' I'ruit fi oui Heiiigr M. Drug. New York, Aug. 28. A morning pa per says last week was not so heavy a week in the California fruit trade as the week previous. During the week ending Auguat IS, 13 cars were received from shippers of fruit ou the Pacific coast, while last week only 115 cars cume in.

STATE JOTTlfsr AT, TUESDAY EVEXTXa. AUGUST 28. 1891. IS PAY WEIIT 0 Fnllraan Himself Testifies Be- foro Strike Commission. lie Admits That His Salary Was Not Reduced. PROFITS NOT CUT. Didn't See Why They Should be Used to Pay Waires. Chicago, Aug-. 23. George M. Pull man was before the labor commission for nearly three hours yesterday afternoon. lie dwelt at great length on the motives which actuated the company in buildiEg- homes for the workingmen at Pullman, declaring1 that the town had biea made so that the best class of mechanics would pre fer to live there than in any other place. In reply to queries by Chairman Wright, Mr. Pullman told of the con tracts for work undertaken by the company at a loss, ia order that the men might be kept Et work. He said: "I found we weru being underbid by other companies even where we bad figured the wcrk down to cost. I undertook to mike the Pullman company's bids in o 'der to secure the work for our men. My recollection Is that the first order of the kind was for fifty-live cars oa the Long IslaDd railway. Under my instructions the cost of material and labor was figured on the basis of a reduction in wages. "Then I bad the matter under con sideration here and Jiew York for about two weeks uni finally put in a bid for something tetween SJOO and 8100 a car below actual cost. I made up my mind that tho company would contribute that tench rather than have the men Idle. Up to the time of the strike we had lost more than $50,- 000 in pursuit of this policy. I ex plained this personally to the men when they were having their conference with Mr. Wickes. Mr. Ueathcote said they wanted the wages of 1893. I sa d: It would be a most unfortunate tiiag for :ill of you if the wages of 18 3 were restored, because there is not more than six weeks' work in the shop now, and we would be unable to get more on a basis of the wages cf 1393.'" Here Mr. Kernaa interrupted to know if the company had not pro posed to aiseharji; some of the com mittee that waitel on Wickes and whether the promisj had been kept. Mr. Pullman said h; did not know but Mr. Wickes would telL Mr. Kernan then asked: "Were the books shown to the men?" "No. they were not, because the men did not apply to see them, and the strike came Friday." "There were other grievances, were there not?" "There were, but Mr. Wickes and Mr. Drown had promised the men to take them up and r.;medy them wher ever there was juit cause for com plaint. Judge Worthinsrton asked: "As to this reported dec aration of yours that you Lad nothing to arbitrate, were you correctly reported?-' "I have already explained my views on that subject." Judge V orthing-.oa then brought out the fact that the company's original capital stock of 81,000,000, in 1SU7, had increased to 36,O0O,000; that the company had p;dd dividends of 13 per cent during the first two years of its organization; 9 per cent dur ing the nest two years, and 8 per cent annually since, and at the same time had accumulated a surplus amounting to 25,000,000. Referring1 to the stock of the com pany Mr. Pullman said it represented actual cash paid by the stockholders as the capital wa. needed and the capital stock was increased for the legitimate business of the company. There was no water in it ana none of it represented dividends. Coining back to the question of arbitration Mr. Pullman said he re membered no formal attempt to get him to arbitrate with the men. He had declared his willingness to arbi trate. ".Now, Mr. Pullman," said Commis sioner Worthington, "taking the whole year throng i, has the Pullman company made or last money?" "It has made money," was the answer. "You have paid your regular divi dends?" "Yes, sir; 8 per cent." "That is something like 3,800,000 yon have paid out in dividends for the year." "Yes, but that includes the latter part of the world's fair whicn was ex ceptional. "Let me ask 3 on, Mr. Pullman, whether you do not think a company that pays dividends of 800,000 could not afford to share the losses of its employes who have worked for it so long?" "The manufacturing business is separate from the business of the sleeping car company. I see no reason why I should take the profits of the 4,200 stockholders in the Pull ,rnan Sleeping Car company and pay men a higher rate of wages than was paid in other parts of the country for the same work, or than was paid by other companies for the same work. "Because we ha"e been careful and accumulated a surplus I do not see that it is a reason why we should take the surplus now and pay it out for ex ceptionally high vtasjes." "What do you see that is objectiona ble in submitting a difference like this to arbitration. "There are some matters that are proper subjects for arbitration, but I cannot arbitrate on a question where 1 know the facts tD be thus and so. The question as to whether our shops should continue to run at a loss is a thing that could rot be arbitrated," "Why was it impossible?" "Because it v.oiates the principle that a man has a right to manage his own business." Judge Worthinj-ton wanted to know Tthertia it was wrong to take the money of the stockholders and pay higher wages when the management was ready to take contracts at a loss, or take the stockholders" money to keep the plant going. Mr. Pullman said the execution of contracts at a loss was better for the plant than to let it lie idle. "So," interrupted Mr. Kernan, "yon had that in view as well as the em ployment of the men? Yon did not want to stop the plant because you knew that would be a loss to stock holders, and you did not want to scat ter your men because you knew it would be difficult to get a force to gether again that would do economi cal work?" "Yes." 'Was your salary reduced, Mr. Pullman?" The witness replied it had not been. "Nor the salaries of superintendent or foreman?" "No." "Why?" Mr. Pullman said it was not good policy to reduce the salaries of high officials, because men of their caliber were not easily replaced. Mr. Pullman was then excused and Vice President Wickes was called. Ha rehearsed the history of the strike and the part he played in it. He aid the discharge of the mem bers of the grievance committee after he had promised that they shoald not be molested for the part in the committee's work was entirely with out his knowledge and was not inten tional on the part of the minor officials who had laid them oft. AN UNPRECEDENTED CASE. A Federal Judge Overrules an Order of the United States Supreme Court. Fort Smith, Ark., Aug. 28. An un precedented case occurred here yes terday aftei noon when Judge Parker of the Federal court overruled Justico White of the United States supreme court in the case of Lafayette Hud son. Hudson is a desperado who shot a man in the Indian territory because he would not get down oa his knees and pray. He was convicted in Judge Parker's court for four years im prisonment in the King's county pen itentiary at Brooklyn. The case was then taken before the United States supreme court, where Justice White entered the order that Hudson be ad mitted to bail in the sum of $5,000. It was this order that Judge Parker set aside, who held that the justice had no right to admit him to bail, and that the rule of the supreme court whereby he undertakes to do so is in valid because congress has given the court no authority to make a rule say ing when persons shall be admitted to baiL That it requires legislative action to decide when a case is bail able. Congress has passed no law providing for bail after conviction ia a case of this kind. CHINESE SECRET SOCIETY". Recruits for the Ge Hlnj Being: Rapidly Knrolled. Chicago, Aug. 23. The "Ge Iling," the Chinese secret society whose avowed intention, it is said, is to effect the overthrow of the present em peror of China, is being rapidly recruited in Chicago, and Sunday, September 9, has been selected for the holding of a big conclave here. Prominent Chinamen from all parts of the country will be present, and it is expected that the order will at that time decide upon the course to be pursued by the Chinese-Japanese war. New members are being se cured daily, and the "Gee iiing" on South Clark street are the scene of frequent initiations. The "initia tion" includes a ceremony in which everybody present draws some of his blood, which is caught in a tankard, vhich is sipped by all, including the initiaties. DELLA RIDES A WHEEL. Every Evening Just at Dusk bhs Takes a Spin. New York, Aug. 28. Pretty, dainty Delia Fox ha? taken to bicycle riding. Whether it is because she fears ebe is getting too stout or has it in rniad to in troduce herself on a bicycle ia her opera is not definitely known. The fact is, for several weeks past, just at dusk, accompanied by her sister, she wheels a Liberty from "riteve" Moea'a bicycle establishment, near Central Park, on Eighth avenue, and goes spioning up the boulevard. Her costume i3 a loose fitting blue serge, ia extremely modest, and consequently, not of the bloomer order. After a two houra' rlie on tb.3 boule vard and in the park she returns acid puts her wheel away for the next night. BRIEFS BY WIRE. A reward of $2,500 is offered for the recovery of L M. Eyers, who was ab ducted from his home in Pittsburg last May. Vice President Stevenson made the address of welcome to the visiting Knights of Pythias at Washington last night. The contention of Chief Ilazen in regard to the Mississippi state war rants has been sustained by Attorney General Olney. The provisions in the new tariff till relating to the use of alcohol used in the arts cannot be carried into effoct for want of funds. Senator Butler, of South Carolina, has bolted the Democratic primaries, and his action will kick up a great po litical row in that state. At Glens Falls, N. Y., Hon. A. P.. Abbott.ex-meraber of the state assem bly, was killed by the accidental dis charge of a gun as he was about to fetart on a hunting trip. At Penetenguishene, Ont., A. H. Spring, manager of the Western bank disappeared on the occasion of the visit of the inspector. He is said to be short 825,000. An order has been issued by Super intendent White of the railway mail service requiring mail clerks to hence forth live at one terminal of their routes. A passenger train on the Chicago and Eastern Illinois road collided with a switch engine near Thirty-seventh street, Chicago, fatally injuring a fireman, and badly shaking up the the passengers. A dense fog caused the accident. No one was serioesly I injured except the fireman. DIDII'T LIKEJT A BIT. Cleveland Scores Tariff Bill but Lets It Become a Law. He Writes a Long Letter to Congressman Catcliinrjs. A QUEER POSITION. He Tacitly Approves What He Strongly Disapproves. Washington-, Aug. 28. The presi dent yesterday sent the following letter to Representative Catchings of Mississippi, who consented to its pub lication, in view of its publio charac ter and importance: "Executive Mansion, "Washington, Aug. 27, 13U4. J "lion T. C. Catchings: "Mr Dear Ses: Since the conversa tion I had with you and Mr. Clark of Alabama, a few days ago in regard to my action upon the tariff bill now before me, I have given the subject full and most serious consideration. The result is I am more settled than ever in the determination to allow the bill to become a law without my signature. "When the formulation of legisla tion which it was hoped would em body Democratic ideas of tariff re form was lately entered upon by con gress, nothing was further from my anticipation than a result which I could not promptly and enthusias tical indorse. "It is, therefore, with a feeling of the utmost disappointmant that I sub mit to a denial of this privilege. "I do not claim to be better than the masses of my party, nor do I wish to avoid any responsibility which, on account of the passage of this law, I ought to bear, as a member of the Democratic organization; neither will I permit myself to be separated from my party to such an extent as might be implied by my veto of tariff legisla tion, which, though disappointing, is still chargeable to Democratic effort. But there are provisions in this bill which are not in line with honest tariff reform, and it con tains inconsistencies and crudities which ought not to appear in tariif laws or laws of any kind. Besides, there were, as you and I well know, incidents accorapanj-ing the passage of the bill through congress which made every sincere reformer unhappy, while influences surrounded it in its latt-r stages and interfered with its final construction, which ought not to be recognized or tolerated in Demo cratic tariff reform councils. "And yet, notwithstanding all its vicissitudes and all the bad treat ment it received at the hands of pre tended friends, it presents a vast im provement to existing conditions. It will certainly lighten many tariif burdens that now rest heavily upon the people. It is not only a barrier against the return of mad protection, but it furnishes a vantage ground from which must be wajed further aggressive operations against pro tected monopoly and governmental favoritism. "I take my place with the rank and file of the Democratic party who be lieve in tariif reform and know whit it is; who refuse to accept the results embodied in this bill as the close of the war; who are not blinded to the fact that the livery of Democratic tariff reform has been stolen and worn in the service of Republican protection, and who have marked the places where the deadly blight of trea son nas blasted the councils of the brave in their hour of might. "The trusts and combinations the communism of pelf who have pre vented us from reaching the success we deserve, should not be forgotten or forgiven. We shall recover from our astonishment at their exhibition of power, and if then the question is forced upon us whether they shall submit to the free legislative will of the people's representatives or shall dictate the laws which the people must obey, we will accept and settle that issue as one involving the in tegrity and safety of American insti tutions. "I love the principles of true De mocracy because they are founded in patriotism and upon justness and f a'r ness toward all interests. I am proud of my party organization because it is conservatively sturdy and persist ent in the enforcement of its princi ples. Therefore I do not despair of the efforts made by the house of rep resentatives to supplement the bill already passed by further legislation and to have engrafted upon it such modifications as will more nearly meet democratic hopes an 1 aspirations. "1 cannot be mistaken as to the ne cessity of free raw materials as the foundation of logical and sensible tariff reform. The extent to which this is recognized in the legislation already secured is one of its encour aging and redeeming features; but it is vexatious to recall that while free coal and iron ore have been denied, a letter of the secretary of the treasury discloses the fact that both might have bs'en made free by the annual surrender of only about 5700,000 of unnecessary revenue. "I am sure that there is a common habit of under-estimating the im portance of free raw material in tariif legislation, and of regarding them as only related to concessions to be made to our manufacturers. The truth is their influence is so far reaching that if disregarded a com plete and beneficent scheme of tariff reform cannot be successfully inaug urated. 'When we give to our manufac turers free raw materials, we un shackle American enterprise and in genuity and these will open the doors of foreign markets to the re ception of our wares and give op portunity for the continuous and re munerative employment of Amer ican labor. "With materials cheapened by then freedom from tariff charges the cost of their product must be correspond- I Ingly cheapened. Thei'eupon Justice md iairness to tne consumer wouia Jemand that the manufacturers be obliged to submit to such a readjust ment and modification of the tariff upon their finished goods as would secure to th people the benefit of the -educed cost of their manufacture and shield the consumer against the exaction of inordinate profits. "It will thus be seen that free raw materials and a just and fearless reg ulation and reduction of the tariff to meet the changed conditions would jarry to every home in the land the blessings of increased comfort and theaper living. "The millions of our countrymen who have fought bravely and well for tariff reform should be exhorted to continue the struggle, boldly chal lenging to open warfare and con stantly guarding against treachery snd half heartedness in their camp. "Tariff reform will not be settled until it is honestly and fairly settled in the interest and to the benefit of a patient and long suffering people. Youra very truly, "Groveb Cleveland." IS NOW A LAW. The New Tar I ft Measure Went Into Ef fect at .Midnight. Washington, Aug. 23. At 12 o'clock last night the McKinley tariff law, which has been in oper ation since Oc tober 30, 1800. practically four years, died on the statute books, and, the new Democratic tariff bill, passed by the Fifty-third congress, became a law without the signature of Presi dent Cleveland. ANOTHER CHAMPION OUT. UcAullffe Ia Bested by tirifTo, but Is Not Given the Oec-isien. Coney Island, Y., Aug. 28. Never before in the history of the Seaside Athletic club did such a crowd gather within its walls as that which assembled last night to witness the fight between McAuliffe and Grif fo and the several events preceding that combat. The attendance was 6.50O. McAuliffe was first to enter the ring. He was received with wild en thusiasm and bowed his acknowledg ment frequently. The Australian fol lowed shortly after that and was loudly cheered. First round McAuliffe led off and they closed. A good bout ended after a brisk rally, in which Griffo made a good impression. Second round Mac led with his right over Oriffo's shoulder, and then Griffo got in some good punches, fol lowing this up on the face. After sparring, Griffo punched the big fellow in the neck and face and began to take a comfortable lead when the gong was welcomed by Mac. Third round After carefully spar ring, Griffo was effective with both on Mac's face, but rallying he upper cut Griffo with the left in hard style. Mac's left eye was injured and he blew more than the Australian. Fourth round Mac's left eye was rapidly closing. He seemed weak in his attack and worked slowly, when Griffo landed two beauties and put his man on the ropes. It was now all going Griffo's way, and Mac was wilder than ever, getting a fearful left in the face. Mac sent a sweeping right-hauder after Griffo. but missed, the latter ducking. Griffo went after his man in good shape, and twice got him on his swollen face. He had just got a straight one from Griffo's left when the gong sounded. Fifth round Mac was now very tired and sparred for wind, and GritTo probably lost the golden opportunity of not getting the fight by not going in. Sixth round Mac was now bathed in perspiration and Gritfo scored rap idly and apparently had his opponent at his mercy. Mac got slower and slower, and his big efforts with his right struck wild over and over again. Seventh round Jack began some terrific rushes, but Griffo was not to be denied and in some in-fighting got there twice to Mac's once. Eighth round After a few ex changes Griffo did well with a left upper-cut, and dashed in on his man's face in good shape. It looked, .how ever, as if he lacked power or inclina tion to go in and end it, being much stronger. Jack was regaining lost ground when the bell sounded. Ninth round Mac, much refreshed, braced up and led off with a terrific right-hander on Griffo's body. He now forced the fight fiercely, punch ing right and left, and when the bell rang he had all but regained his laurels. Tenth and last round They shook hands and Mac bepran with a good body blow. They then clinched and on opening Jack aarain got there. He now went desperately to work trying the knock-out. He rushed wildly twice and then went wild in what might have been a finishing blow. They frequently clinched and hissing was loudly indulged in. A terrible set-to was in progres when the round ended. The referee gave the bout to Mc Auliffe, which called forth a storm of disapproval. There never was such a demonstration against a referee's de cision. McAuliffe attempted to speak, but was hissed down. Griffo protested vigorously against the decision and was apparently supported bv a ma jority of the spectators. Griffo also attempted to speak, but the police interfered and requested him to leave the platform. He was loudly ap plauded as he stepped from the ring, and when McAuliffe was leaving the groans were deafening. Senator Stewart Involved in a Scandal. Washington, Aug. 23. The state ment was published yesterday morn ing that Charles L. Glassock of this city had filed a suit for absolute divorce from his wife, and that he had named as co-respondent a senator, whose name was not given, and whose identity was not clearly shown. The fact became known that Senator Stewart of Nevada was probably the senator referred to in the article, and to the press reporter he admitted that it applied to him, but maintained that it was a blackmailing scheme. The whisky trust failed to raise the large sum necessary to take 6,000,000 gallons of whisky out of bond beor the new tariff law went into effect. "WHAT HE'S COTk I"lie Difference Between the Senator and tli GotrreiiBioi "Once upon a time," remarked a Story-telling congressman, "I hap pened to be doing some campaign speaking with the senator from my State, and one of our engagements was at a small town considerably off the main highway and at a place where I thought a United States senator would be a nine days' wonder, not to say anything about what a plain member of congress might be. We were objects of more or less re mark, I am free to confess, and I was feeling rather proud of the combina tion until I happened to overhear a conversation. I didn't intend to lis ten, but it happened that several women who had come to hear the speaking met in the hall right in front of my door, and of course the speakers of the day were the topic of conversation. 'Which one's the senator?' asked one. 'That un that's got the whiskers,' replied another. 'He don't look like he knowed any more than t'other,' was the next com ment. 'I reckon he don't, said the third; 'an' neither one don't seem to have any to spare in case they had to sheer it. 'How does he git to be senator ef lun don't know more'n the congress man?' asked the third. "'Huh!' sniffed the other, "tain't what a senator knows that makes him a senator; it's what he's got,' and then I made a noise to let them know that they must not be giving away state secrets, and the way they went down the hall was a caution." HE'D LET GO. A. Buffalo Man Gives a Pointer to the Saint. In an art gallery in a town not far from Buffalo there hangs a splendid painting by some Frenchman (name forgotten by deponent) of the temp tation of St. Anthony. The painting is one of the show pieces of the gal lery and cost a fabulous amount of money. This artist's version of the tempta tion represents the sorely-tried saint clinging to a small sap ling with one hand, while three Bcantily-clad and bewitching fe males are tugging on the other hand and trying to pull the saint from his tree. The expression on the saint's face is the crowning glory of the picture. It is marvelously painted. The other day a dignified and well known Buffalonian was escorting through the gallery his wife and her friend, a charming young widow from Washington. They came to this picture and stood before it a long time discussing its beauties. Just as they were about to leave, the j-oung Washington widow glanced archly at the Buffalonian and said: "Now Mr. R. if you were In St. An thony's place, what would you do?" Tho Buffalo man looked perplexed and hesitated for a minute, then said: "Well, if the tree didn't break, I think I should let go my hold." HALF BROWN. Curious Markings on the Body of a Lit tle White Boy. The colored woman who is turning white in places has a rival in a little white boy who was born brown in places. The color of his brown places is about the same as that of the skin of the average Afro-American. The little boy, George Russell by name, is the son of a baker in New York. He was bora in Omaha two years ago. He is fair-haired and his skin is light, aside from the patches. He is plump and healthy. The boy is mostly white as far down as the waist line, below which he is brown, with the exception of the left leg below the knee. The white portion, including the face, arms and bod3', is dotted with large patches of varying intensity of color. On the left temple is a very large red birthmark. This is the only approach to deformity in the child. Otherwise he is very well formed. There are fifteen spots on the face, nearly as many more on the scalp, and more are scattered over the should ers, arms and body. The left leg be low the knee is liberally spotted with color down to the foot and on the toes. Was, Not Is. In London, in the time of George the Fourth, there was an athletic and dashing military man. Major Brace bridge by name and title, who, when he found his power waning, retired to his countryhouse and seldom showed himself in society. Many years later, he had occasion to go up to London, and there met a lady who had known him in his younger years. "Dear me!" she exclaimed; "aren't you Major Bracebridge?"' "No, madam," he answered, "but I was once." The Dialect of the YaUnt.. An interesting piece of translation is that of the Russian liturgy into the dialect of the Yakuts of Northeastern Siberia, which has just been accom plished by some Russian scholars. The language of the Yakuts is bo poor that it can only reckon a total of 200 root words. They have no word for "body" as distinguished from "flesh," and none for "bread." The Lord's prayer, even, could not be translated literally. lie Was Nettled. The man was losing every game at cards, and the lady on the other side of the table was laughing at him. "Ah, well," she said in sarcastic sym pathy, when he had to buy another basket of chips, "unlucky at cards, lucky at love, you know." "Yes," he said, "and I guess it must be true, for you see I am still a bachelor." Basy to Take and keep the system in Perfect Order.

In the investiga tion of the Pullman strike by the nation al commission today, Chauncey Kelsy of the Chicago Alton road took the wit ness chair and testified as to th losses sustained by that road during the strike, lie declared that the total loss was $286, B60. Then Wm. McFadden of the Lake Shore Michigan Southern road testilled that the loss on cars alone to that road was $5,154. The Chicago Eastern Illinois re ported $21,(500 and the Chicago, Burling ton Quincy reported $15,U00 in de struction to property with other losses that had not beeu tabulated. Charles E. Webb, chief clerk of the bank at Pull man, testified that Jennie Curtis who claimed she was compelled to pay back rent, had paid the rent voluntarily. Then Vice President Wicks took the stand. Questioned by Chairman Wright, he said mat the cost to the company of building the cars under contract at the time of the strike, was about $1,40 ),000. The labor would cost about $40,000. The contracts were taken on a basis of a reduction of 20 per cent, and thus under the old prices tue labor would cost about $300,000. Mr. Wickes admitted that on this basis the company had reduced its receipts $52,000 and the employes wages $tS0,000. This the vice president sail looked hardly fair, but he thought it much better than to throw the men entirely out of employment. In answer to the chairman, Mr. Wickes said that the cut in pay had been made to lit the depression iu busiuass and the low selling price of cars and not to stop any encroachment on the pront that was paid to the 8 ockholders. i he surplus of $25,000,000 undivided profits, consisted partly of idle cars whose value was constantly deteriorating. The cost of the cars was counted iu tlie sur plus, so that there was to some extent a friction in the figures of the surplus. lie said that the world's fair in his opinion, did not do his company any par ticular good, lhe company spent $4,500, 000 iu building new cars for fair traffic and the traffic was not nearly so large as was really expected. He thought that the fair work had something to do with the cause of the str.ke. When the rush was over the prices got down to bed rock and the men were dissatisfied. He did not think that a voluntary di vision of the profits in prosperous times would be better than the present system. It would not be fair to the stockholders to so divide the profits. Mr. Wickes said the amount of back rent due the company from the strikers was $100,000. No eviction had been made, and there had been no orders for eviction. Very little effort had been made to collect tha rent. He said the company had contracts with the roads its cars run over (about three-fourths of all the mileage in the country). On the territory covered by the contracts, th Pullman company had a monopoly. Record Broken at utom Ifone. Chicago, Aug. 28.

Earlier in the Year French Troops Were Massacred. Arabs Stole Up and Killed Them in Their Sleep. Paris, Aug. 23. Most startling news has reached her from Senegal. West Africa. According to a report received, the French garrison at Timbuctoo after three days desperate fighting with the Tauregs and other hostile tribes which have been investing that city for a long time past, made a sortie. The beleaguer ing forces were overwhelming in num bers and fell upon th sortie party, fairly annihilating it. This news created consternation in many circles, as it is the second serious uisaster the French bars met with in the vicinity of Timbuctoo since that important Soud anese town was occupied by them early in the present year. A French column, com manded by Col. Banuier arrived at Timbuctoo on January 10 and two days later a detachment of troops with Col. Banuier at its head, accompanied by Commander Hugeny and the entire staff, started out on a reconnoitering expedi tion, leaving Captain Philippe as senior captain in charge of the post at Timbuc too. This French detachment in some man ner never fully explained to the public, was surprised asleep in camp at Dougi, two hours march north of Goundam and three days march from Timbuctoo. The Arabs chiefly Tauregs, mounted and on foot, and armed with lances and knives, entered th French camp by sev eral sides during the darkest hours of early morning and overturned the stacked arms in front of th sharp-shooters, who, surrounded, were unable to seize their rifles to defend themselves successfully. The Arabs massacred nearly the entiro detachment, consisting of the Fifth and Eleventh companies of Soudanese sharp shooters. A French officer, Capt. Nigot, though seriously wounded iu the head, succeed ed in scapinir to a platoon of soldiers left some yards behind the main com pany to guard some captured flocks. This piatoon was under the command of Lieutenant Sarda. It retreated to Tim buctoo, bringing with it a few wounded men, who had escaped the massacrt at Dougi. The Tauregs pursued th retreating soldiers aud practically invested Tim buctoo, which Captain Philippe made haste to defend pending the arrival of reinforcements. It was stated that at Dougi the r rench lost nine otucers, two European sergeants, an interpreter aud one sergeant, six corporals and sixty-one native sharpshooters. For the defense of Timbuctoo, Captain Philippe had 300 rifles and six canon, but this was a very small force with which to hold a town of 12,000 popula tion situated among hot moviug sands oa the verge of a morass aud having a walled enclosure about three miles in circumference. But a Column commanded by Col. Jof fre, was on its way to reinforce the French at Timbuctoo, and having sent messengers to the colonel and communi cated with the commander of the French flotilla on the Niger river, the captain made the best disposal possible of his small force, and with the co-operatiou of the populace succeeded in holding out until the Joffre column arrived. This column was composed of a company aud a half of sharp shooters, a squadron of Spahis (splendid African cavalry) thirty auxiliary tipahis and thirty guns. It also had the horses, mules, drivers, etc, of the first column. It fwllewed the land route by San t-anding, Moninpe, Nanpalg, Lere, Soumpe and Goundam, and met with serious opposition during its advance. On January 20 a company of sharp shooters marched on Niafounko, supported by cavalry and artillery. They were confronted by two kilometers of a swamp which surrounded the village, in front of which were 400 warriors drawn up in battle array. Th warriors charged the French force. The latter in less tuan fifteen minutes killed over 100 of the Africans. The others took flight and the village was captured without any loss on the part of the Joffre column. Several such en gagements took place, cannon aud cav alry being repeatedly called in to us but on February 2, th advance flotilla ar rived at Goundan and met the advance guard of the Joffre column and on Feb ruary 12 the latter reached Timbuctoo. It is in all probability part of the force of Capt. Philippe and Col Joffre, which accordingto th advices from Senegal had been cut to piece by the Arabs. It is believed that the garrison of Timbuc too has, since the Joffre column arrived there been again reinforced. RELIC OF CUSTER'S FIGHT. A Finger Fting: Picked Up ea. the scene of the M&iare.

Gov't Report. rl "y, i W,.A jsi asT THE WIZARD EDISON. Hard at Work oa His Xw Phvu of Crssh Inx Ore. Osdin, N. J., Aug. 2S. Wizard Edi son of Menlo, and Lewellyn Parks has ie come the wizard of this place. Before he made his appearance here there was nothing but a few scattered farm houses, a station and some holes In the ground. Now everything is changed. A half dozen big buildings filled with ma chinery are scattered about, freight cars are on th sidings, teams haul heavy loads here and there, and th whole place is fuil of activity. Iuventor Edison has spent, it is said, nearly $.',000,000 in Ogden. He has erected, abandoned, aud torn down buildings and machinery with ex traordinary prodigality, and thus far his backers have realized not a single cent from their investment. Just when it seemed his magnetic process of re fining ore was a success, and a return for th stockholders was iu sight, Mr. Edi son became dissatisfied with the pon derous rollers in which the ore was crushed, and one morning he tore them all out. Then he mads new and more ponderous rollers after ideas of his own. When these were finished it was found that the belts would not move them and it was necessary to iuvent a new method to set the great wheels in motion. Briefly stated, Mr. Edison's process is this: lie proposed with his great rollers to grind iron ore into powder and pass th powder longitudinally over a rubber belt and over a series of magnets. The magnets are expected to sep arate the iron from the rock. The whole process is to be much cheaper than smelting. There is expected to be millions in it for the company. New Jersey is to be re stored to th first place among iron-producing states and another laurel wreath is to be added to the brew of Edison. "Will he succeed, do you think?" one of the brightest men in his employ was asked. "I think h will," was the answer. No thought of failure clouds tho brow of the iuventor. He is the same frank, smooth-faced boy-lik Edison that he was ten years ago. When he is not busy he visits all the near-by country hotels and tells funny stories. When he is busy he works as of old, 38 aud 48 hours at a stretch, without intermission or sleep. LOVED LOIE FULLER. liut His Wife Stayed by IIlui aud Secured His I'ardou. Nkw York, Aug. 28. The World this morning announces that Governor Flow er has commuted the sentence of eight years for forgery imposed upon Colonel William B. Hayes to eighteen months; that the term expired last Saturday; that Hayes, who is suffering from paresis, is now with his wife iu this city. Mrs. Hayes sent a telegram as follows: "Sorry we cannot vote. We would like to show our gratitude. Miss Fuller would be with us." The Miss Fuller referred to in the tel egram is supposed to be Loie Fuller, the serpentine dancer. Miss Annie M. Keat ing of Detroit claimed that Colonei Hayes betrayed her under promise of marriage. His wife instead of reproach ing Hayes, hoping to win back her hus baud's love, adopted th child and al lowed Miss Keating to remain the mis tress of her home. Col. Hayes, it was claimed, gav Miss Keating a not for $2,000. He became infatuated with Miss Fuller and refused to pay the $2,000. Th trial for forgery was a famous case in the New York courts, 'through all his troubles Mrs. Hayes stood by him and it was largely through her efforts that Hayes was re leased from Sing Sing.

The Populist campaign in this state presents a condition of affairs that has been witnessed but twice before in the history of Kansas politics; that of man at the head of the ticket who is manifestly so unpopular as to be a bur den. In 1310 Geo. T. Anthony was nom inated for a second tsren as governor by the Republican part;'. The most dam aging charges were made against him by members of his own party and by the opposition. It was found necessary to devote the best energies of the party to sustaining him, and though it was the year of a presidential election, and at a time when sectionalism ran high, he was about 10,000 votes behind his ticket when the returns were in. In the party shouldered another burden in the person of John P. St. John. While there waa nothing especi ally damaging charged against his per sonal character or his previous adminis tration of affairs, his radical views on prohibition, the fact that he was a candidate for a third term and his supposed close rela tious to the railroad interests all com bined to send him down to defeat, not withstanding the fact that the remainder of the ticket was elected by about the usual majority. Granting for the sake of illustration that the relative strength of the Repub lican and the Populist parties is the same this year as in 1392, then if the history of either the Anthcny or the St. John campaign should te repeated, which seems probable. Governor Lewelling would inevitably be defeated. His strength lies in the country districts where the members of his party, who read little but Populist literature, know little of the damaging record of his ad ministration, that is 83 well understood in the cities. The country Is the Held for Republican laborers. KANSAS PARAGRAPHS. The proposals for furnishing hay to Ft. Riley call for 4,475,000 pounds. The twenty-fifth anniversary of the ar rival of the English colony at Wakefield is soon to be celebrated. 'J. B. Johns, hut band of Laura M. Johns, was in the city this week," is the way the Bennington papers express it. A. Dunai of Clay Center tied his cow to the Union Pacific track, so she could graze. The cow catsher did the rest. There has been so much sickness at Tescott that the only practicing physi cian there felt juatifed in getting mar ried. Mr. Apple of O tawa county, would like to be picked by the Republicans of Ottawa county as thiir candidate for pro bate judge. The croquet dlssa.e has become bo malignant at Junction City that the cro quet grounds are illuminated, so as to play after dark. The housekeeper at the Soldiers' Or phans' home at Atchison Has put up 600 quarts of tomatoes which the inmates will put down this winter. The Lincoln Republican says the women there go in bathing in the Saline river just like they do at the big water ing places. Shame on them! An Atchison man has taken 8,000 pounds of honey from his bees this year. There is considerate difference between a "has bee a" man i nd a "has been" man. It is understood the fact that football was a crime in England during the reign of Henry VIII Is new being expurgated from all the text books of Baker univer sity. A Wichita manias rought a 14-foot alligator home from Florida with him for a story tester. When the story is so big the alligator can't swallow it, it will do to tell. The city marihsl of Junction City, while chasing a dog, killed it when it was directly in front of a butcher shop. Chance occurrences are not always to felicitous. The costume of the woman who took the prize at a Clay Center poverty social cost 17 cents. Being married is the only thing that kept her from having a dozen 'offers'' ou the spot The supply of Columbian stamps at the Eldorado pcstiSice has just given out, and the peopln who do a great deal of letter writing will have a chance to salivate their food properly. Minneapolis liesieager: The Populists la Topeka are protesting against the passage of aa occu;;atioa tax by the city council. There are but few Populists ta this town who would te in any way af fected by such an ordiaance. A woman at Council Grove took a money order to the postofflce an 1 tore o-I the coupon because it had a ragged edge. When women get to running things tuey will have them all hemstitciied. L. A. Buell of Minneapolis has evolved a system of photographic abstracting on which ha has applied for a patent It consists of photographing each instru ment which affects the title of tie land, and then pasting them in a small book. When the abstract is complete it consists of a fac simile of every instrument under which, the land is held. The exodus Trom the middle and west ern portions of the state and the conse quent large falling off in the voting pop ulation, all resulting from the drouth, will afford excellent opportunities for partisan canvassing boards and dishonest county officials to make fraudulent elec tion returns. That a very large majority of the voters in all political parties favcr honest elections there can be little doubt. This being the case, too much care can not be exercised this fall in taking such measures as will surely prevent any man ipulation of the returns or swelling of the totals of nearly depopulated counties In the interest of any party. Let U3 have a fair and honest election, regardless of who wins. A sincere and united effort on the part of the state committees of the various political organizations will bring1 about this result. ONE LITTLE LONESOME. Rudolf Schell Drank to His Own Health and Was Arrested. When Rudolf Schell entered the po lice court this morning, he was not hap py. His head ached, and his air was a generally dejected one. He was charged with having been drunk. Officer Donovan had found him brood ing over the ills of monopoly ia the alley back of Long's restaurant. He was not a boisterous druhk. He was quiet about it, and as Jailer Woodruff expressed it, "it was a soft, pleasant sort of a drurik." Rudolf stood up and told his story to the judge. He was a victim (?f the late strike, he said. Ilehal been employed by the Santa Fe at Raton, N. M., and his wife and two children lived here. It was Rudolf's first appearance in police court, and he hoped ha would be allowed to advertise it as his last The judge gave him a good lecture and let him go. A spectator to the ense sav3 that IU dolph is not all he seems. He says he has been working at Raton for a long time and has never sent one cent of money home to his wife who has bean supporting the family by ruanin;' a boarding house and that now he has come home broke to eat up her earnings. An examination of the docket showed, however, that the man was listed there as 183 years old and Jailer Woodruff was called up before hizzonner to answer to the charge of falsifying the police records. "I took his word for it," explained Woodruff. "Well," said Jud.e Ensrninger. "I want you to take notice that it is the order of this court that hereafter before you enter a man's age on the docket you look at his teeth." HE WOULDN'T TRADE. A Bright Southern Kansas Hoy on His Way to the Orphans' Home. Eder Logee slept at the police station last night Eder is a Caldwell, Kansas, boy, and was on his way to the orphans' home. He is not a very big boy nor is he a remarkably clean boy. His baggage was not extensive and the only trunk he had with him was an old coffee sack, into which he had dumped in delightful promiscuity his few belongings. He had a new straw hat and a couple of shirts, that might have been w hite before they got into the general tangle in the sack. There was a revolver and four pairs of clamp skates. "What are you going to do with those skates?" asked the reporter. "Sell 'em if I can." "Where did you get them?" "Traded for 'em down home." A colored boy who stood near offered him a nickel for the revolver. Eder was speechless. "Give yer fifty cents." uNaw ye won't Gimme dollar an'alf." "Give yer dollar." "Gimme dollar'n quarter." "Not much." The trade was off, and Eder threw his sack over his shoulder and started for the asylum on foot TOPEKA THEATER OPENS. Every Day Thia Week.

Fatal Fall of the Archduke William of Austria German and English II or back Klders Klnga Who Can Ride WeU ana Those Who CStnnot. Special Correspondence.! Berlin, Aug. 9. Considering that Arc-hduke William jf Austria was cele brated a3 one of the most superb eques trians ia aa empire where nearly every man may be said to ride well, it ia cer tainly strange that he should be the first prince of the blood in modern times to lose his life by a fall from bis horse. Unable to disentangle his foot from the stirrup, he was dragged along the ground for several hundred yards, the frightened animal's hoofs pounding his kindly and genial old face until it had lost all human semblance. The late Duke of Orleans, father of the Comte de Paria and the eldest son of King Louis Philippe, had his neci -A Ay ARCHDUKE WILLIAM OF AUSTRIA. broken at Paris while attempting to jump out of his carriage, the horses of which had bolted, but to the best of my knowledge there is no parallel since tho beginning of the present century to the caso of Archduke William. Never Look at Ease. This ia all tho more surprising see ing that the majority of royal and im perial porsonages are very indifferent riders at any rate, aa far as the mascu line element is concerned. One might have thought that thia would have been an accomplishment in which they would excel above all others, seeing that royal ty is mainly ornamental, and that it 13 far easier to remain so and to create an impression when mounted than on foot. But such is not tho case. Generally speaking, their seat in the saddle is bath and in spite of all efforts of their pro fessors in the art of equitation and all the care devoted to this particular branch of their education they never look at ease or in any way well on horseback. Thus neither the Prince of Wales nor his brothers, Alfred, duke regnant of Saxe-Coburg-Qotha, and Arthur, duke of Connaught, can be said to appear to ad vantage when mounted. They have German instead of English seats in their saddles, this being due to their fa ther, the late prince consort, having insisted on their being taught riding by a Hessian infantry officer rejoicing in the name of Meyer and whom he had imported for tho purpose from Darm etadt just about the last place in the world where one would look for a good horseman. The princes are seldom if ever seen in the hunting field, the only member of the British royal family who occasionally dons the pink and joins in chasing the fox being Prince Henry of Battenberg, the German husband of Queen Victoria's youngest daughter. Poor Lord Lome I The finest horseman of the reigning house in England was undoubtedly the late Duke of Clarence, oldest son of the Prince of Wales, who not only was passionately fond of hunting, but also rode in a large number of steeplechases winning several important events over exceedingly stiff courses. Princess Lou ise, third daughter of the queen, de serves to be mentioned, too, as present ing a graceful picturo in the saddle and is a superb equestrienne, differing in that respect from her puny husband, the Marquis of Lome, whose horseback experiences have been of quite as en tertaining character as those of the famous John Gilpin of "London Town." It may be remembered that, while taking part in the royal proces sion to Westminster abbey on the occa sion of the queen's jubilee, Lord Lorne, much to the amusement of his brothers-in-law, pitched off his restive horse, alighting on his head. We have Emperor Williarq'fl assur ance that the czar does not know how to ride well, the young German monarch having given public expression to the opinion some time ago that Alexander waa too bad a horseman to like to make war. This may possibly be true of his Muscovite majesty nowadays, but I re member him, when a young man and prior to his accession to the throne, as anything but an indifferent rider, his only fault being that his hand was per haps a trifia heavy. His wife nsed like wise to be a graceful and fearless eques trienne and was wont to hunt, English fashion, until the terrible railroad ac cident at Borki some years ago, which entirely destroyed her nervous system. A KlnRs Miahapa. King Humbert's seat in the saddle is far from good, and there is no other reigning monarch who has been pitched off his horse so frequently. Fortunately he ia lithe and limber and has therefore hitherto escaped any bad effects from his tumbles save severe shakings. The best rider of his family is probably his nephew, the young Count of Turin, who is master of the Roman fox hunt and president of the Italian Turf associa tion, controlling all the race courses of the kingdom. Neither the king of Sweden nor any I V SPA of his sons ride well, and the same may be said of all the members of the royal house of Denmark save old King Chris tian, who Is, however, now too old to ride and contents himself with driving four-in-hand. Prince Ferdinand of Bul garia, although at the time of his elec tion to the throne which he aow occu pies he held a commission ia an Austrian regiment of hussars, is a miserable horseman, so much so that he is forced to review his troops, as a rule, from a carriage and is unable to remain mount ed for more than half an hour at a time. The obesity and indolence of the young king of Portugal render him awk ward on horseback, and an easy seat in the carriage is far more to his taste than a saddle. In this he differs from his consort, who, as a daughter of the Comtesse de Paris, is, like her mother and her sister, Princess Helene of Or leans, devoted to horseflesh. King George of Greece prefers walking to either riding or driving and is more often seen riding in the tramways at Athens than on horseback, his predilec tion in this respect being shared by the members of his family. Other Royal Riders. Another royal personage who can't ride and who simply abominates horses is the ex-king of Naples, who is never seen otherwise than on foot, while his wife is as passionately fond of the equine race as is her sister, the empress of Austria. She races, I may add, on the French turf under the psuedonyra of "Count Isola." Prince Victor Napoleon, the recognized head of the house of Bonaparte, is a de plorable rider and has had no end of igno minious falls, on the last occasion com ing to grief in such an awkward man ner that he brought Count Sergo Morny, with whom he was riding, to the ground, smashing the count's ankle and disVocatiug his shoulder. Indeed his mishaps in this particular are a con stant theme of ridicule to the republio and Orleanist press of Paris. King Leopold of Belgium, strange to say, sits on his horse far more like an Englishman than either the Prince of Wales or the Duke of Connaught. Every day he may be seen riding to the Bois de la Cambre in the neatest of English gaiters, breeches and jacket, presenting quite as well groomed and trim an ap pearance as his nag. The equestrienne feats of his consort, Queen Ilenriette, who is an Austrian archduchess by birth, rival in every respect thoso of Empress Elizabeth and of Archduchess Mario Theresa, who stands on record as having made the longest and quickest ride ever attempted by a woman. Queen Henri tte ha? personally trained a num ber of her horses, especially a beautif-!l mare of the name of Charme, to per form all sorts of circus tricks, and from time to time Fhe give3 amateur circus entertainments in the royal riding school at Brussels in behalf of one or another of the local charities. Little King Alfonso, like the young Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, is now learn ing to ride and is making rapid prog ress. Fine Equestrians. The equestrienne par excellence of tho royal house of Spain is tho little king's aunt and godmother, Princess Isabella, widow of that epileptic brother of the ex king of Naples who committed suicide in her presence by cutting his throat. She is passionately fond of hunting and never looks to such advantage as when arrayed in the scarlet jacket and black habit of the Madrid Hunt club. Emperor William of Germany is a bold and excellent horseman, although he does not hunt. His skill in this re spect is all the more creditable by rea son of the fact that one of his arms is crippled and almost useless. He spends a great deal of his time in the saddle, r7. f i vf-'V- .I r i r mr EMPEROR AND CROWN PRINCE OF GERMANT. which probably contributes a good deal to his retaining his health and spirits notwithstanding the incurable malady with which he is afflicted. Of all crowned heads, however, the most magnificent rider is undoubtedly the Emperor Francis Joseph, who, if the truth were known, is quite as per fect a horseman as his consort, Empress Elizabeth, used to be an equestrienne. I have seen him in many a different uniform, but never to such advantage as in the traditional red coat, high silk hat and top boots eo familiar to all those who have witnessed a meet of the hounds ia Austria, and in spite of his advanced age he ia always in the fore most flight when following the hounds of Count "Niki" Esterhazy or those of the Princess Leichtenstein. All of Emperor William's sisters are excellent horsewomen and only afford additional proof of the superiority of the feminine to the masculine element of royalty in everything that pertains to riding and horseflesh.

The Big- Hedjfe on JJuincy Street no Long er a Hiding .Place for Crime. Street Commissioner Naylor has done a p.ece of work for which he should re ceive a medaL He had the tall hedge fence at the corner of Third and Quincy streets cut down even with the ground and thrown into the river. This fence extended from the alley on the north side of Third street to Quincy and north on Quincy for 150 feet. It was one of the worst resorts and most dangerous places in the city and was the scence of many midnight holdups. The most disreputable characters in town used this hedge, which was as high as a good sized house, for a hiding place; The police have had innumerable com plaints of late about a gang of colored women who made life miserable for any one who happened to go that way at night. Sunday night the police made a raid on the place surrounded by the hedge, but the dozen or more of men and wo men behind the hedge escaped. The matter was placed before the street com missioner and he summoned his force yesterday and by the vigorous use of axes this eye sore of the police had soon disappeared.

Yon Had Jiett r ICetnrn, a the Police Have I nip s Against You. Where ia Detective Jacobs? He has been collecting evidence against the jointists for several weeks under the aus pices of the crusade committee; but Sun day he left towD. and since then the po lice are looking f or him. Jacobs was the easiest man in town to fiud, up to Sun day. He got considerable evidence of the sort the po ice pretend to be unable to c"et, about c ubs and joints. The alleged oiTance for which the po lice are hunting Jacobs, is that before he informed against the club at First and v an uuren streets, he went to the pro prietor and offered to settle for $35 cash. Jacobs told those for nhom he was working a plausible story for leaving town. There was not much more to do in Topeka, at present, he said, and he thought he hai evidence by which he could corral a train robber iu Oklahoma, so he went after him. He expected to go several days before he did, and said he wouid be buck in about hve or six days. If he doesn't come back, his dis appearance may begin to look sus picious. HE WILL RAISE GRAPES. A Frenchman Burs a Farm Near Tecum-t-ch for Cash. Antonie Dufour and family of Paris, France, arrive 1 in thecit v about a week ago, and after visiting different points in the county, purchased the Kisinger farm, a halt mile e;nt of Tecumseh, for which he paid if 2,500 in cash. lie intends tj put out several acres in vineyards, and devote his time to grtpe culture.

Joe Waters Give3 the Pas3 Taking Judiciary ANOTHER WELL DESERVED RAKIKG. Ermine Wearins Jtlaeitratea Who Take Railroad, i'aase AVhea They Are Frrqaently Called on to Oeclde Oaxra Involving It ail road Interest a. A. Loud Smelllnx Hesndal. Capt. Joe Waters has been Interviewed at Troy, Kas., by the editor of the Tri bune there. Capt Waters was asked if he was a Populist. lie said: "No, sir; I am not; I am worse than a Populist, I am a Republican whose poli tics were kittened at the wigwam in Chicago when Lincoln was nominated, who has been seven years in the army, who never held, wanted or asked for orBce and believed in everything heroic or grand that party has done. I will not vote for a single candidate on the Repub lican ticket this year. I am opposed to the railroads running and owning both eupreme court and the Republican ma chine in this state. I know one man who dispenses passes for a railroad in this state, that is the uncrowned king. He has dictated to governors, legisla tures and the judges of the supreme court, and I am only exercising my right to heip give them a black eye this year, for they deserve it. I am no flopper. 'As I do not want office, 1 can criti cise, and here is my criticism. There are now two judges on the supreme bench, Horton and Johnston, who have taken and used passes ever since they have been on the bench, and they hear and decide cases where these railroads are on one side and a lone widow, or phans and one-legged brakeman are on the other. This is a crime. it needs for plain speaking to break this custom up. The suitor who has a cae against a railroad would never try it before twelve jurymen who each had a pass in his pocket and no honest or upright judgo would require it. Nor ought any one to be haudicapped by having the entire members of the court of last resort, all armed with passes, finally determine his case. Men are human, the railroads give it under the head of courtesy to the bench, but it is not for health or philan thropy. They are intended to be sent where they will do the most good A judge who IiLlS one of these passes in his pocitet dare not under his own name justify it. It is only pardonable so long as it is not discussed and nothing is said about, it." "It is the reception of such favors as these that take our courts away from the people, that give them leaning towards corporations, and has called for a loud voiced protest that has erystalized in the Populist party. You have got to have upright men, pure men on the bench or your government is rotten to the core and valueless. A pass-taking judge can no more defend his action than Bacon could his bribes. If you will watch a judge on a train pull out his pass he does it with a debonnair demeanor that a dog possesses when ho is caught killing a sheep in the fold. Year in and year out the supreme judges take passes and give decisions in which those railroads are concerned. Two hundred cases or more are now pend ing in the supreme court, many of thorn of great importance in which the railroads are parties. The great people who care to investigate the question can go to the decisions of our supreme court and decide for themselves what passes in the hands of judges have to do with decisions. Every time the Republican party puts up a judge of this kind I propose to oppose him. 'They say all the big judges take passes. So much the more prevails an outrage on the people. No man empties ordure in a fountain to cleanse it. Judge Johnston ought not to have a Republican vote in Kansas. This is a subject you will not hear discussed for it is eternally wrong. And as a Republican I propose to make my protest ellective. Am I right? Where is the man in the state of Kansas who dare in public speech or un der his own signature take up the cudgel and say I am wrong." BLACKS AM) BLUE TEIXS. Col. Bill Eagleson Says Taylor's Trouble la Caused by 3Iulattoes. Col. Bill Eagleson, the well known leader of the local colored Democracy, Bays the fight which C. IL J. Taylor has on his hands at present in Washington, is one of the greatest significance to the colored race in America. "I saw Taylor." Eagleson says, "in Indianapolis last month, and he said to me then, I am going to have a devil of a fight, when I get back to Washington.' Then he told me all about the trouble he was in, which has since become public The row is over the employes in the of fice. He found a lot of young fellows in there who wore good clothes, bought $150 bicycles and went to the races. He told them they could go to the races all the time, for he wanted men under him who wanted to work and needed the money. But the row didn't really commence until Taylor fired a colored woman who was a particular pet of Editor Chase of the Negro paper the Call, Chase opened up on him and brought all the charges which have since come to the notice of President Cleveland. "Taylor is the friend of the black col ored man, and not the tool of the light onas or the rich ones. As a general thin? the colored man when he gets wealcu or position.disdains the black col ored man and prefers to hobnob among those a shade or two lighter. This is tha reason he ia at war with the so-called in fluential colored citizens of Washington. "One place where Taylor show ed this feeling strongly was in the public schools. It devolved on him to piacticaUy name the colored teachers in the Washington schools. He found a lot of frizzly, pow dered mulatto girls teaching there, not because they knew anything, but be cause they were the 'friend' of some con gressman. Taylor fired all these and put in women of the same color as their pupils, and who were capable of teach ing. "The fight has narrowed down be tween the light negro and the dark negro. All the darkies are with Taylor. The light ones have no use for the masses of our race until they get into trouble; then they say, 'nurse me.' If a man with colored blood in his veins don't like hts race, I say all right, get white if yon can, but after you're denied your race, don't coxae around asking any favors of TO SHUT MART OUT. Mrs. Lease Won't He Allowed to ho Cam paign Work. It ia today announced that Mrs. Mary E. Lease is not to be allowed to go into the state campaign for the Populists. In a letter cancelling her last Sunday's date at Prohibition Park, New York, written from the state insane asylum, -Mrs. Lease said, "I am physically wrecked for this season." The real reason she will not epeak in the Kansas campaign is however, be cause she is regarded as bad campaign, material. Her utterances against the administration and her recent action in defending Dr. McCasey, who is not de fended by the beat element of the Popu list party, have combined to make Mrs. Lease objectionable to almost every ele ment in the People's party. THE BANKER 3sOT A POPULIST. Agrellus Sends His Money to the Repub lican Committee. Secy. Bristow of the Republican State Central committee yesterday afternoon received a letter from A. E.

With the letter he enclosed a contribu tion to the state campaign fund. PRICES FOR ELOPPEICS. The "Flop" Kichange Now Posts the Po litical O notations.

The firms entering into it kept their former names, but all orders have to Lej sent to the association which distributes them among the different cleaning firms according to their slocks and business. Three firm of peanut cleaners refused to go iuto the trust.

Until very recently General Ezeta and his brother Carlos were in complete control of Salvador. Carlos was president and Antonio vice presi dent. Abont a year aco, while Miss Wright was Jiving in Salvalor, General Rafael Guiteraz and others started a revolution to overthrow the Ezeta government. Guiteraz an 1 nearly a score of other con spirators wc re captuved and sentenced to death. Tho day they were sentenced Miss Wright becau e the betrothed of General Antonio Ei.eta and pleaded so hard for the lives of the conspirators that they were set free. Now Ezeta is very sorry he listened to the fair one's MISS WRIGHT.

Miss Wright is ajout 20 years of age and a tall, handsome girl of the blond type. She belongs to an old Georgia family and is a very accomplished and intelligent young woman. She was ed ucated in France, sneaks French, Span ish, German and Italian fluently, and her soft southern accent is very fasci nating. After leaving school about two years ago Miss Wright and her mother, Mrs. Marie Robinsc u Wright of Atlan ta, made a tour of Europe and then visit ed La Libertad, Salvador, where she met General Ezeta. Both could talk Spanish when they met, and it was not long before the coiversation turned to love. Their betroth il followed, and the marriage was to take place in October. When it was announced that General Ezeta had escaped to the Bennington, Miss Wright pleaded with the state de partment at Washington not to land her lover in Salvador, where he would be put to death. Her plea was success ful, and Ezeta was brought to the Unit ed States. A Hank Guarced by Soldier. The Bank of Germany, like most oth er German public buildings, has a mili tary guard to project it.

Xt lUIni Borne Life Jmt as Intolerable as a tack of System. A house In which there is no orderly routine is a very uncomfortable place, no doubt, but too much order may be equally disagreeable and wearing, the nerves of the family being rasped as were those of people who lived witb.Il. Wilfer's wife. People to whom order is not the means to a desired end, but the end itself, give themselves and ethers a great deal of needless trouble. A chair or a book out of place distresses then.. A blur on the window pane drives them to distraction, unless they can at once remove it. A meal slightly de layed beyond the apjointed hour lose for them its savor. Order is their fetich. In vain their friends beg them to be philosophical, to try elasticity as a sort of buffer against annoyances. They shake their beads wearily, and keep on fretting. And the fretting marks their foreheads and indents their lips and writes its record on their faces, while husbands and children sigh for a little cheerful happy-go-lucky disorder. The daugh ter of the over orderly mother is often, by the law of reaction, an absurdly un systematic personage. Harper's Bazar. HOMEMADE BOOKLET. As Pretty and Iainty as Any Purchased Article Could I3e. The little book shown in the accom panying illustration can be made at home, and will be as pretty and dainty as any purchased book could be, be sides having the additional recom mendation of being constructed with one's own fingers sind stitches. The poem may be original or selected from Whittier or some other favorite poet, and may be written upon the type writer or written in one's own hand writing. Heavy, unruled paper, with a rough surface should be chosen for the pages. The cover is celluloid, and may be of white or some delicate tint. It is perfectly plain on the edges, and has eyelet holes at the back, which ex tend through all the pages within. A ribbon passed into these holes f orms all the "binding" needed, and is tied in a careless bow on the front cover. A dainty Christmas or birthday card is fastened to the celluloid with tiny bows of baby ribbon at alternate corners. If one is gifted with Lis brush or pen, tho card is doubly pretty if ornamented with an original design a bit of land scape In sepia or water colors, or a cluster of flowers dropped upon it. In this case the greeting will be in orig inal lettering "Merry Christmas!" or u 1 i 4M Jl pretty i'ei:8ent. "A Glad Birthday!" or the beautiful German word, "Gluek,' for well wish ing. In the latter ea;e. to follow out the idea and give it tlouble significance, the capital G may bo a horseshoe, and the following letters constructed of horseshoe nails, as shown in the illus tration. American Atrricultu rist. The Study of .'janaeri. An eastern female college has intro duced into its curriculum a systematic study of manners. It is to I e hoped that other institutions of learning es pecially public schools will take up a like course. As a nation we are sadly deficient in this respect. In attempting to avoid elaborate and oftn absurd ceremonies of European polite life, we liave gone to the opposite extreme, and, as a consequence, sometimes Americans of the most refined nature appear rudo and uncouth. We need to know mora of the conventionalities of elegant so ciety, without going into the finical questions of etiquette that are bother some and unimportant. Teach our young men and women the politeness that comes from a gentle heart and a delicate perception. Womankind. Changed hy Kindness. "We were married thirty-seven years," a man said who had lost his wife, "and in all that time she never gave mo a cross word. But I shall never forget the first time I scolded her. One morning when we had been married about two years, I found a button oil my shirt. I threw the gar ment at her and said, in a rough voice: 'Sew a button on.' She got a button and sewed it on, saying: 'Forgive me, husband, I had a great deal to do yes terday and I forgot it, but it shell never happen again. Her gentle words almost broke my heart. I could have gone down on my knees to ask her for giveness. She made a different man of me. and the world has been a diii'erent place since she died." Philosophy of Clothes. White clothing is cool because it re flects the heat of the sun; black cloth ing is warm because it absorbs both heat and lijrht. Xotice to Contractors.

The Duty of a 5Iaster Xaaon to the Frater nityChips FroDi the Temple. Every Master Mason should belong to a lodge. In many jurisdictions he must. It is his duty to contribute to the support and maintenance of the fraternity, for tha Great Light says, "If there bp any among you who would not work, neither shall he eat." He may demit or withdraw from one lodge to unite with another. He may ap. y to whatever lodge he pleases, at homo or abroad, only he mut belong to a lodge. He can resign from his lodge, but not from Freemasonry. The vows ho has voluntarily jissumed he cannot absolve himself from, nor can another do that which he cannot. Illinois is joins: to follow tho good ex ample of the royal craft in New York and form a fraternal union of anointed high jiricsts. The triennial convocation of the general grand chapter, which was to have been held July IS, at Topeka, and which was postponed on account of the railroud strike, will te held Aug. 22 at Topeka. The principal officers of a chapter in Pennsylvania ia 1S14 were known as first, second and third chiefs respectively. The present titles were adopted by tho grand chapter in lsi i. Keep the membership clean.

The ordt r of the Eastern Star can no longer be rylcd an infant, for here and there ;.re celebrated the anniversaries that indicate it lias reached its maturity. Such scurrying through the degrees as is permitted in some Scotch lodge is dis grace to aii ancient and honorable frater nity. To organize a lodge the charter mem bers must be Master Masons, and thev must convince their brethren of the lodge nearest to the point at which it ispropojed to locate it that they are capable of con ferring the degrees in a proper manner. M. W. John Hodge of Lockport, rand master of Masons of the state of JS'cv, York, has notified Secretary Booth of tha Commercial Travelers' Homo association that he will accept the latter's invitation to lay the cornerstone of tha Travelers' home in Binghamton on Oct. 9.

Kound about it smooth lawns un dulate, dotted her and thero with fine trees, while fjay flowers and danc ing" fountains add their quota to the g-eneral beauty. And all this wealth, through the death of old Mr. Crolius, has come to his only child who bears her moth er's name Charlotte. She stands now in the library window, holding back the heavy brocaded hang-ing-s with one slender hand, while she gazes out with a sad, mournful ex pression in her soft eyes. All unno ticed by Charlotte, as she stands with her face turned from the door, some one has entered, and is fj-azin at her with a world of pity and yearning1 in his look. "Oh, I am so lonely!" she sig-hs. She fancies she is alone, and the thought frames itself aloud in words. Startled, she turns; but as her eye rest upon the manly, dark-browed, dark-eyed face, the sadness vanishes from her own as though by the touch of a mag-ic wand. "Are you glad to see me, Lottie?" he nays. "Glad?" the one word reveals more than she dreams, and the next mo ment she is clasped in strong1 arms, while the voice she has never yet heard without a secret thrill, says softly and eag-eriy: "And I am more than glad! Oh, Lottie, you must have known you could not help seeing' my love for you a long time back! I should have spoken before, had not my poverty, compared to your wealth, kept me silent; but something1 your father said to me when I was with him, the very eight before he died, has made me cast doubt and hesitation to the winds. Lottie, he said he knew I loved you, and he would wish no happier lot for you than' to be my wife." A lovely glow suffuses the sweet face as she looks up at him. "I always knew father respected and liked you, Eaton." "And you, yourself, Lottie?" The golden head droops shyly as she murmurs: "And I more than lika you; I love you. And so, when the year of mourning' prescribed by custom is ended, they are married. Four-months have passed and Char lotte's dream of happiness fee etas to her almost too perfect to continue. One day her husband was engaged to dine with a party of gentlemen friends during the afternoon, but was to re turn in the evening to escort his wife to a reception. The afternoon wears away, and it is 8 o'clock, and, all robed ior her ex pected festivity, Charlotte, while waiting for her husband's coming, busies herself in getting his things in readiness. She opens the glove-box lat, and lifts the ivory-tinted pair which are on the top. As she does so, from out of one of the gloves falls a note, in what has every appearance of being her husband's writing. Glanc ing casually at it as she lays it on the table, she sees the address "Miss Adele Graham." The name is not unfamiliar to her, though she has not yet met her. She has often heard Miss Graham men tioned as one of society's most bril liant belles. Charlotte stands for a moment" hesitating; then a wave of memory passing through her mind, brings with it some words a friend had said to her shortly before her marriage: "So you have cut out the beautiful Miss Graham? I heard she was once en gaged to Mr. Eaton Wolcott." With trembling fingers the young wife breaks the seal and reads: "My Beloved Adele Forziva my seeming neglect la not writing to yon for so long: but lnoe Inexorable circumstances have come between us. even to the extent of hampering our correspondence, I have thought it best ta i j i-v-r-r LABORED SOB3 BXTR3T FROM H19 LIPS, wait until I could be sure of the note reaching your hand without ianer of discovery. Then. followed laments at the cruel ty of their enforced separation, and protestations of vindying affection, with the name, "Eaton Wolcott," in full at the end. With a cry, Charlotte sinks upon the floor, as though felled by. a strong hand. Eaton is falsel Then pride comes to strengthen the crushed heart. Dragging herself up, she staggers to her feet. "I have been rightly punished," she says, wearily, "for reading what was not intended for my eyes. "But it is well yes, well that I did. He mar ried me for my inheritance; he shall have it, without the incumbrance he took with it." A half hour later the door opens, and Eaton enters, saying anxiously: "Lottie, darling, I hope I have no loT Xj&ggftff i0S., ll kept you waiting; I trted hard to get sway, but could not." There is no answer, the room is smpty; upon the lounge lies the inowy silken robe his bride wore at the altar the day that made them one. But no Charlotte bounds to meet him with the love-light in her face that makes every home-coming a thing to look forward to. On the dressing table, conspicuously placed, where he :annot help but see it, is an open note. Penciled upon the envelope are these words: "Eaton: I know all; that It was not Char otte vou wantet, but Edgemoor. toouzh to attain one you were forced to take the other. Dh' why did you deceive me so cruellyf I go from you with a heart torn and laoerated, and with such grief as I hope you may never know. Farewell!" He reads it, his head drops into his hand, and convulsive, labored sobs burst from his lips. It is six years later; in the sitting room of Mrs. Trevor's country resi dence, at Tarrytown, are three ladies. One is middle-aged, the others are her daughter and the companion who has made her home with them for the past three years. The morrow is Miss Evelyn's birth day, and, to celebrate the occasion, a fair the proceeds of which are to be given to a neighboring hospital is to be held under Mrs. Trevor's auspices. "Miss Merle, could you not take Miss Martin's place and be the foun tain nymph?" "Certainly, Mrs. Trevor. I would do more than that to show my appre ciation of the many kindnesses I have received at your hands." The eventful afternoon has come, and the spacious grounds of Elmhaven are the center of a brilliant scene. In a secluded nook, surrounded by vines and over-arching trees, is the grotto formed of rocks and paved with shells, in the center of which, in the midst of tropical foliage and plants, is the lemonade fountain. The afternoon is waning, and the visits to the grotto seem to have ceased, and, feeling somewhat wearied, the girl, going behind the fountain, seats her self to rest upon a rustic bench. A few moments later, voices entering the grotto fall upon her ears, and one which with a wild heart-throb she recognizes. "Ah, the nymph of the fountain has deserted her post," Mrs. Trevor says, laughingly. "I suppose she despaired i of any more customers." And then they talk for a while on impersonal topics until at length the lady says, gently and a little hesitat ingly: "You must forgive me, Eaton, if I cause you pain by what I am about to ask; but I am so anxious to know. Ilave you found any trace of her your wife?" The answer is low and troubled. "No." "Eaton, have you any idea as to what could have led her to take such a step? "My dear friend, I know you are prompted to speak as you do, solely through your affection for me, and I will requite that interest by confiding to you the facts; they have never be fore passed my lips. My own life's happiness, and what is still more precious, my little Charlotte's have been wrecked solely through a mis take. a "You may know that I have, living in California, an uncle my father's youngest brother, who was but five years old when I was born. It wan his boyish lips that gave ine the name he bore himself Eaton. One he aeon in society he met a young lady from Lawrence, Mass., who was visiting friends in New York. "He saw her often, and became des perately in love with her, and soon discovered that his affection was recip rocated. He is handsome and of ex tremely fascinating manners, and her parents at first seemed pleased with his attentions to their daughter; but when, upon inquiry, they learned that he was possessed of a very mod erate income, their affability changed to coldness. "As the time went on, the young lady had cause to suspect that her let ters were intercepted, and told her lover as much. Knowing I intended to visit Boston and Lawrence, and that I would probably meet hia lady love, who was much admire-d in so ciety, my uncle wrote me, asking as a favor, to take charge of his corre spondence, and see that his letters reached Miss Graham by giving them to her myself. "I did not tell my wife, for, kotow ing her strict ideas of right and wrong, I feared she might think tiiat I had better not interfere. "One of those letters, course, 'Eaton Wolcott,' signed of my wife found and read. My uncle's hand writing and mine are vmry similar, though a close observer wooild see a number of slight differences. But poor little Charlotte believtid that X loved another, and had married her for her wealth. I have searched un wearyingly, and never till I die shall I cease that search, but I fear it will be fruitless." A cry stirs the air. "Oh, Eaton, my husbaodf own lips have vindicated yout wife has heard and believes!" It is Charlotte's voice, and Your Your there, eyes, a before his dazed, incredulous slender figure is kneeling at b is feet; the long, golden tresses, rfloating away from her waxen brow,, sweep the shell-paved floor, as, with head thrown back and great, luminou eyes uplifted to his face, sh cries.: "My husband; do you not know me your little Charlotte?" With on inarticulate mum aur oi thanksgiving, Eaton lifts her to his heart. With tears welling up in he kind eyes, Mrs. Trevor glides quietly away, blessing" in her heart tilue kind Providence which led her to request Eaton's confidence at ao opj wtu-ne mocLenV LJ, 1 i,rs"iiinliiiii j i -jzZ'JZz' KNIHT3 OF PYTHiAS.

A lodge cud not legally expel a member when action is taken otherwise than tby ball ballot. The law excluding bartenders from membership In the order Is not retroactive in itH operation, and therefore does nut affect bartenders who were iiieuibeis of the order prior to July 1, 1893.

A Brave Little Girl Who Wants Wow Not Ciiarity. AN INCIDENT AHQKG TCPZETS FCOR. Only One Story Khonin; tlie I r 1 1 1 u -1 1 o ii and. Hufferlnj That llxaats Here Xt i K tl t in Mlilsuuimer. A young girl stood on the porch of Mrs. Thorpe, the police matron today. Her shoes lacked blacking and needed patching- and there was a hole in one lit tle brown-once-black stocking that she had tried to bide by putting it inside. Her gingham frock was plain but clean. It was torn ia places aud patched in oth ers. Her broad black straw hat with it3 ouo yellow paper rose and bit of rib bon, the only attempts at ornament about her, set off well the tangles of her brownish hair and the saddaaed light in her tear moist eyes. Her thir teen years had not been surrounded with rii. ries nor with pleasures. Her little brown aud calloused bands clasped and unclasped each other nervouoiy and twined about the lingers the little tear wet rag she called her haudkerehief. Her lips were thin and tightly pressed at times, and her face, upon wh eh there was little of the bloom that should go with youth, told its own unmistakable story of suffering and hunger. "What can I do for you, my little dear?" asked Mrs. Thorpe, as she un latched the door and bads her enter. JI want work, ma?-um." "This is the fourth time you Lave been here, is it not?:' "Yes, ma'am; and I must have some thing to do." The brimming eyes turned to the carpet. "You will soon have to go to school, will you not?" 'I haven't time to go to school. I work during tlie days and study evenings when I am not too tired. Mamma helps me when she can and a little girl next door loans me books." "Are you so very poor?" The brown eyes sought the floor again. "We are poor." "But are your folks very needy at home? If they are suffering you must tell me. Perhaps 1 can help them." The little lips were pressed more tightly. "Piease, ma'am, I want a place to work," she said simply, and that was all she could bo induced to say. Mrs. Thorpe mada her eat something and take a iiitle food for her mother, and sent her home with the promise that woik would be given her if possible. Mrs. Thorpe has since visited the fam ily and liuds that it is indeed a poor one. The motner has a very young baby and is not well. The father has gone to the country to find work, but is not very suc cessful. Tlie little girl, small as she is, has been supporting herself aud her mother for some weeks, by doing what washiug her strength would enable her. The case is not an isolated one in To peka.

A Terrihle Fight With Beasts Xer Wash burn College. August Vauleae was seriously injured this morning one mile west of Washburn college by two bulldogs which lacerated his legs and arms in a frightful manner and tore the clothing from his body. Vauleae sells brooms aud this morning he approached the house of William I Wallace, a colored man. The family 1 were not at home. He had only walked a short distance toward the house when two bulldogs rushed out and attacked him. He attempted to light them off, but this only infuriated them more, and the long teeth of the dogs were repeatedly fastened in the muscles of the unfortunate mau's arms and legs. The dogs would probably have killed Vaulene if a man named Johnson, who happened to be going by, had not come to his assistance. Tue msu to gether beat o'J. the dogs and Vaulene was tatteu to the house of a neighbor, and Dr. C S. McClintock was called. He found that the man's right arm was bad ly torn. There are also several wounds on the left forearm and both thighs show serious teeth marks. The tlesu on the man's breast is also torn, and there are wounds in his back. All the places where the skin was broken were cauter ized and the doctor thinks the man will recover unless blood poisoning results. DEjIO C11ATIC SPEA K EliS.

FORTY-EIGHTY YEARS AGO GAME WAS BORN. THE The Initial Concert Was In Hohoken, N. J. It Ws Flint KoDndcn, Then Town bail, Then Base Ball Played at First O alj by Gentlemen Amateurs. The National Games. Tuesday, June 18, according to a chronicler in the New York World, was the annivtisa y of the first match game of base ball ever played, which took place at Hoboken, N. J., on June l ism. There is lack or def inite lnfor ration, but it may pretty safely be stated that Captain was there and playing. The of base ball bad originated nine months before. It had .A nson game nearly grad- ually grown ou. of the old English schoolboy gnme of rounders. Like man, Lase ball is tha result of evolu tion. Bounders evoluted into "town ball." In the latter sport Instead of bases there we e 'corners," These were unattended, and runners were put out b being h t wi'.h the ball thrown directly at theiu by the fleld e s. Tne ball was much ofte than the modern base ball, and was co u posed wholly of rubber. In the early forties a j arty of New lokers as sembled every Wednesday and Satu J day on a vacant lot, then a long way j out of town, and now covered ty the 1 Madison Squaie Garden, to play I town ball. After a t nie some of tbem felt that the sport might be greatly imp oved. Id was finally de- j cided to substitute "bases" ior "cor- j ners." to use a i all with a hard rub- j ber center, wound with yarn and i covered wl h leather, to place men to gu a d the bases, and to change the name "townball" to "base ball." j On September 23, 184.'), the-e gentle- i men organi ed the first bue ball club and called it the Kni kerbocier. Thus our national game was born. There were soon a number of base ball clubs in and around New York, and the first match game was be tween the Knickerbocker and New Yor clubs. It comprised only four iuDi .gs, the rule then boiag that the club first making twenty one runs in even innings was the winner. GROWTH OF TUB GAME. The growth of base ball in other parts of the country was ve-y slow. Townball continued to be played, and .ts votaries did not take to base ball. 1 ase ball was not played in Philadelphia only ni .ety miles from ew York unt 1 looo, fifteen yea s after Us h rth in this city. In that year the Olympic Townoall Club, of that city, organi ed iu 183H, decided to play ba-e 1 all instead thereaiter. The first base ball match in Phila delphia took place June 11, 18C0, be tween the Equity and Winona clubs. San i raticisco'.- first match took place on February 22, ISriO. Base ball was not played in the New Eng land States until five or si.i yea s a ter its birth, and then only in such a mod fled form that it was called "the New Lngland game" in cent adistinction to "the New York game." ine originators of ou.' na tional game were gentlemen who p.ayed base bail merely for recrea- i tioo, and we e anxious that it should j remain a gentlemen's game. As clubs multiplied througho it the i country it became necessary toestao- i lish some ge eral organization, with j authority to control and egulate the j interests of the sport and its play- j iug ules. I Accordingly there was lo med the National Association of Base Ball i laye.s, in which any club was en- j titled to lueiui ership, with the privi- lege of seiid.ng delegates to the an- j nual meeting. The playing rules adopted iy this organization were the standard ones fo the game, and I were obserxed by all club. Alm:st the first rule made by this National Association positively debarred from membership any club in which there was a man who played base ball fir hire or emolument of any kind. Con- se juently base ball (1 unshed between the years I8.;ti and 1S7I, as never be- fore or since. There were hosts of ciubs, and in every large city many matches were piayed daily, usualiy upon e me vacant lot, the attendance nequently numbering rrom lu,000 to 2o, OoO people. In the city of Allegheny, Pa., 1 alone there we e Ave diirerent base ball grounds w.thin a stone's throw of each other, and on almost every day during the base ball season there was a match on each of these grounds and the same is true of other large cities at that time. j The introdu tion of professional j players was gradual. The rivalry be tween clubs became so great that In order to strengthen ittelf and win victory over some rival each would le ive nothing undone to secure the best players. Thus inducements were held out to men who had shown an unusual aptitude for the game to in .uence them to iday oniy with a particular club. A wealthy gentleman, or Instance, desiring to see his club In the f.ont rank would offer some young man of rare hail playing abllty a position in his busi ness or eountix -house, with a pri vote understanding that his com mercial duties were merely nominal, while his real ones wera to play balL Thus there were numerous clubs In the country which wore virtually professional long before professional playing was openly permitted, and while the stringent law against it was slill in fore in the code of the American Association. This wa no tably the case with those famous o'd t me opootients. the Atlantic Club of New York, and the Athletics of Philadelphia. By 187 1 the numoer and influenca of professional clubs was such that in New Y'ork, on March 17, of that ver, wu held a con .ention of dele gata Iroci crofessioaai clubs whicii openly avowed 'themselves such, thereby cutt ng loose from the Na tional Association of Base Bill Play ers. This convention adopted rules for cbampionsnip cunt sts, the most important being that the club win. ning the largest number of games in a series of five with ev ry one of the other professional clubs should be declared the champion. Prior to this championship contests had been wbolly unregulated. 3! Th base ball championship origi nated between 1857 and 18o. At the Elysian Fields, in Hoboken, N. J., the Atlantics, of Brooklyn, at length proved their supe ionty ovet the crack New York clubs, the Em pire, Knickerbocker, Gotham, and Eagle, an i at length came to be champions in the general dtimation. In 18o8 picked nines from New i orlc and Br oklyn played what tvere called the "Fashion Course Games," New Y'ork winning the first and third by 2 to 18 and 2.i to 18 re s, ectively, while B ooklyn took the second by 2w to From that tl i.e on, until the establishment of the above named championship rules by the professionals, whatever club won two games out of the three from the then champion club beca ue cham pions in turn. Tne Protessional Club Association of DSil was succeeded on Feb. 2, ls73, b the National League, formed in New York C.ty by the fol lowing professional clubs: Mutual of New Vork SU Louis, Athletic or Philadelph'a; Chicago, Hart lord. Boston. Cincinnati, and Louis ville. In the same y ar thirteen minor professional and semi-professional ciubs formed the League Al liance, of which nothing has been heard sin e 1 The National League and Ameri can As oc ation were for many years the two great representative associa tions of professional base ball play ers. The former still flouri-he!i, more powerful than e er, with a membership of twelve clubs. Booic-Learnlnz Only. It is said to be a true story of an Engl.sh clergyman that, on his ap po ntment to a country livinir, he went about from house to hou-e ask ing why the good wives did not go to church on Sunday afternoons. "Milk ing the cowa" was the universal an swer. On Sunday morning, there fore, he spake his mind. "I hae been round t he parish, he said, -'an I And 30U all ii ake the same excuse. Now 1 have only one thing to re quest, and that is that you milk your cows the last thing on ai. unlay nij;ht an 1 the first thing on Monday morning." Who could hearken to a man in the pulpit, or out of it, after that--"' said one old countryman. "But then, you see, he's a book-larnt man:" Another "book-larnt man" was standing by one day when a country parson was looiclng at his tows. "Poor old lady! poor old iady:"said the countr arson, apostrophl lug one quietly chewing her cud. I'm afraidwe must soon part companv." "But why'-"' exclaimed the other. "To go the butcher's." "To go to the butchei's? Why, I always thought cows died a natural deoth, and that we only ate oxen:" Dawkins, the countryman of tne previous tale, was on the other side of the hedge grunting e .phaticall, at intervas, and the country parsoi looked across at him with a twlni." in his eye. "What do ou think of that, i;a k'ns?" a-ked he. "Wherever has he hid hisself a these clay':"' asked Dawkins, in it repress! ble scorn. "But then,' twinkling back at iiis master, "he's a cliolard, aint he? He never ate cow beef! He! he. he." Origin ol the Diamonil. As usual upon disputed points, speculation has been iuy about the or. gin ol the diamond, aud a large number of theories, all riime or less probable, have been propounded 10 set the tnatier at ret. Ihe twii most reasonable expositions are, per. haps, the explanations put forward by M. Par ot and Baron L,iebig Tne former j-cientisr., who ha laboriously investigated the perpieAing subject, is of the opinion that the diamond arises from the operation of vioienti vulcanic heat n small particles ol carbon contained In the rock, or on a substauce composed of a large pro portion or' carbon and a smaller quan tity of hydrogen. By this theory, na he conceives, we are best aule to ac count for the cracks and raws so often noticed in the gem, and thu frequent occurrence of included rar ticles of black arbonaeeo is matter. Baron Liebig, on the other hand, claims the credit of offering a simpbi exulauatlon of the pro ab e process which a tuaily taites place in the for matlon of the diamond. His com tention is that sclen e tan point io no pro ess tapaule of accounting for the origin and produc Ion of d a monds, ex ept the powers of ecay. If we suppose a cay to proc ed in a liquid containing carbon and bvd;o geu. then a compoun w th still more carbon must be formed; and If the com ound thus formed were tself iu undergo furl her decay, tne final re sult, says this eminent authority, must be the separation of carbon m a crystalline Iorin.

An inhabitant of Voro, in Finland, named Sellquist, who for a long time past has been living on bad terras with his wife, had lately a, narrow escape from being poisoned bv her. She called at a chemist's and asked for some rat poison. As these crea tures are very rarely seen In that neighborhood, the chemist had his suspicions aroused, anJ gave the wo man a perfectly harmless drwjr. On second thoughts he decided to Men tion the matter to her husband, and requested him to say noth:iif about it to his wife. In the evening, as she was preparing the porridge, tlie man, kept a watchful eye on her move ments, arid noticed that fche scat tered som-thing out of a paper into the saucepan. When tha pur ridge was ready he sat down to the table and began to eat. After awhile he cot up in great excitemsnt, paced up and down the room aad at last fell fainting on the floor. This was what the woman expected. She now pulled down a rope through a hole in the ceiling with a nooie, which she placed around her hus band's neck, whereupon she ran up stairs into the garret in order to pull up the rope anl hang her husbaad in that fashion. Meanwhile the husband got up and tied a few chairs to the rope. The wife did not return to the room, as dreaded the sight, but went out into the village to raise an alarm, saying that her husbaad bad hanged himself in her absence. When she came back witli a host of neigh bors and crocodile tears in her eyes there was her husband sitting at the table, laughing till his sides ached. The chairs were still dangling- o tha rope. AN IMPRESSIVE TRAIT. A Queer Man Who Mad a Friend by Re spect for His Motlir. During my bohemian dft3's it occur red that I sat in an uptown cafe with the sort of a man whom this incident will reveal. A wild-looking, unkempt chap, gaunt, shabby, with a four days.' growth of beard, rushed in, looked wildly around and then hurried ovr.r to my companion and took him asi'le. As a result of their conversation thi man with me turned to me and said in a whisper: "I am going to ask you to loan me 2, but don't you do it." Then be asked m; and I refused the loan, and the gaunt man went unsteadily out. "Queer duck, that," said the man at the table with me; "always getting into scrapes, taking out opera, com panies and having them stranded. The last scrape he got into was in Montreal. He telegraphed home: 'I am in jail ou a technicality, but don't tell mother.' That struck me as very funny, 'Don't tell mother.' But ho was always an ill-balanced ass, any way." Now that thoughtf ulness of his mother in the young mae who wanti-d to borrow 2 struck me as a rather de serv'.ng trait, and I left my compan ion abruptly and followe.l him out. I saw enough of him to convince ma that he was not a man of -business, and not even an admirable character. However, I loaned him the SJ. Since tb-'n he has been considerably in the public view in many nps and downs. But he is now the impresario of a lot of continental stars I wish bun well. Like Mark Twain I love a man who never shakes his mother. This one's name is Robert Grau. THOUGHT HE'D FOOL PEOPLE. Ona Urhletrroom Who Didn't Propose to .1t tha lilnj Away.

All the other passengers smiled indulgently anl looked interested. T.ien the young man extended his hand to tha young woman and said in a very loud voice and with the most commonplace formality: "Well. Mis.i Blank, the train is about to pull out. I wish yau a very pleasant jorrney. And doffing his solt hat, he hurriedly leftth; car. The pass.'iigers iooke 1 disappointed; the young woman look ed nervous. By and by she calied.ihe porter and whispered to him. The porter nodded his head and parsed to the rear of the car. He came back in a moment and sai l in a voice that was audible to everyone in the car. "Yo're all right, ma'am. He's in de smokin compartment." Everybody smiled and the bride blushed prettily. Loclchsrt'i Joke. Lockhart, the son-in-law and biogra pher of Sir Walter Scott, played a practical joke on Lord Itooertson, who sent him a copy of a poem for notice in the Quarterly Review.
