One huu dre I and ninety-seven persona have been arrested for bei lg implicated in the riots of the last f-ur days. The i olice and marines are active. Many cries of "death to the tj-rants" were heard. Trojps wre held in bar racks and sailors with boat9 are ready to land. President Peixoto announces aid from foreign warships is unnecessary. i i Kio, it is reported, looks like a real military camp, soldiers patrolling the streets, cavalry enc tmped in the public gardens and launches patrolling the har bor front. The number of killed is reported to be 328 and 213 wounded entering the hos pitals, and many more were taken to their homes.

Mr. Gathmanu Explains Why Vegetation i 1'ossible On That Uody. Chicago, Sept 23. Before a company of twenty-rive or more friends and neigh bors, who met at his residence last night, Loup Gathmann exhibited a model of his sectional lens telescope. He aUo ans wered the objections mada by Astrono mers Hale aud Burnham to his an nouncement that he had discovered what seemed to be signs of vegetation on the moon. In answer to tha objection that astronomers with excellent telescopes had never seen a green spot on the moon Mr. Gathmann Sitid: "There can be but two reasons for this fact First, no flrst-class talescopes were in use for making observations the night I saw the spot. Second, if observations were made the telescopes were inferior to mine." Mr. Gathmann said his sectional lens had been examined by Prof. Colbert, who said it had excellent definition and would prove of 'great interest to the whole scientific world. Many eminent engineers had pronounced the sectional lens instrument superior to any instru ment of the same size. "A twenty-inch built-up lens," Mr. Gathmann said, "with clear glasses of even density would be equal iu power to anv telescope that has a forty-inch solid lens." He then spoke of his observation of a green spot on the moon as follows: "Aliout 9 o'clock in the evening of Aug ust 12. in sweeping with my telescope over the face of the moon, I saw a spot of vivid green in the midst of mountains in the valley of S:nus Roris. Greso is a color hitherto unknown to me among the shades of the moou. I thought there might be an error Bomewhere, but after changing the eyepiece six times it was there as a well defined space of green, The idea of it being an error of the telescope is out of the question, because when allowing the moon to pass through the whole field of the glass the strange spot kept stationary on tho moon with every magnifying power used. Seven persons besides myself saw it, and it is not to be supposed that ail of us were color blind. "If Luna haa a flora it must be far dif ferent from ours, because the conditions on the moon are vastly different from ours on earth. Science has not progress ee so far as to know that atmospheric air prevails on the moon. In ftict, the ele ments of the earth's atmosphere are not positively known. To way that vegeta tioa cannot exist on sucli a large planet is to make an assertion which cannot be proven. "Lunar vegetation must be very differ ent from that of tha earth. That Luna should be without animal life I cannot understand. On eirth, in the arctic region, where the cold is intense the year round, they find the polar bear, and the whale and other animals suited to the climate and conditions. If men had never known of the existence of these animals, and if we, common men were asked if such animals could exist there, we would say: 'We do not know. 'But most scientific men graduated from our universities would simply say -no,' because scientific men did not know of their existence they would conclude that such animals could not exist That there is vegetation on the moon is highly probable, but it does not follow that the color should b green. The greenish tint observed August 12 may have been a rare exception." In conclusion Mr. Gathmann said he believed the inhabitants of Mars were making signs to the earth, and he thought communication between neighboring planets by means of signals would event ually be established. PROF. DVCHE COMING HOME. lie is Disappointed Over Ilin Losses, Out AVill (in Asa!ii. Cnit AOO, Sept. 28. Prof. Lewis Lind say Dyche, official naturalist of Dr. Cook's ill-fated Arctic expedition and professor of zoology of the State University at Lawrence, Kan., is in Chicago en route home, after au absence of several months. Disappointed over the loss of the $1,00J worth of instruments and collections, the professor ia yet hrippy to have escaped death and hopes to be able next year to make his sixteenth trip inside the Arctic circle. WELCOME MISS WI.LLAKD. Temperance Women Assemble to Greet Her in the Woman Temple. Chicago, Sept 23. Willard Hall in the Woman's Temple was crowded to overflowing today by W. C. T. U. mem bers who had assembled to welcome Miss Frances Wiilard from her trip abroad. The occasion was the unveiling of the Chautauqua fountain presented by the W. C T.

They Are Well Satisfied Witli tlie Nomina tion of I lot kin. The nomination of Rev. J. D. BDtkin for congress in the Third district by the j .Populists nas made necessary a change of his dates for other meetings over the state. Between 5 and 9 o'clock last evening Chairman Breidenthal cancelled all of Mr. Botkin's dates outside cf the Third district, and had supplied most of them with other speakers. II. B. Kelly will fill some of them. Mr. Botkin's nomination is received with satisfaction by the Populists about the state house. When Rev. J. D. Botkin went over to the Populists every candidate had been nominated and there was no indications that he could possibly be given a nomi nation during this campaign. Jeff Hud son's resignation, which was altogether unexpected, alone maia it possible for the Populists to honor their new convert. The Beeeiver Iicliarsed. Judge llazen today discharged C. E. Jewell from further cervices as receiver for the property of E. Hicks in Topeka. A large part of the litigation intc which the Hicks estate had fallen, has been ad justed. Mr. Jewell turned f 1,079 into the court from rents. Of this $200 was ordered by Jude Ilazea to pay tttor neys' fee. I THE T0R1D0. Experience of a sliip in the West Indies Hurricane. Everything on Deck Had to he Douhlv Lashed. RAIN IX TORRENTS. Lightning, Wind and Rain Made a Terrible Voyage. Passengers Were All Sick and Had a Sorry Time. New York, Sept 28. The Morgan line steamship Eldorado arrived from Jiew Orleans yesterday afternoon, was announced eight hours overdue. Her delay was caused by a struggle with the tornado, into which she ran Sunday night off the southern coast of Florida. Capt. Percy had been warned of the ap proaching previous to leaving pore by a sudden drop in the barometfc but de cided to chance it. Sunday night the wind hon-led through the rigging at a 50-kuot clip and every thing movable on deck had to be doubiy lashed. The rain fell continously and in torrents. Capt Percy never changed the vessel's course aud at daylight on Mon day he found he had weathered the storm and was on the edge of the tornado. At this point however the wind veered to the northward and followed along iu the wake of the flying steamer. "It kept right along with us, though," said the captain, "and followed us right up to the Highlands. We kept on the verge of it. however, and it simply flirted with us all the way up. The torrents of rain continued to fall throughout it all. I have been iu storms before where the velocity of the wind was as great, but never before experienced suGh a contin uous fall of rain. It was like a cloud burst. "Just before reaching Hatteras the lightning commenced to flash aud streak after streak chased each other across tho sky for 43 hours. Some of the flashes were so cloaethat I thought we should be struck. The passengers had a sorry five d lys trip of it They were housed most of the time and many were sick the greater portion of the passage." Capt Percy says that any steamers whicn were twenty-four hours behind him must have fared very badly, for they would be in the very center of the storm. The Ward line steamer Ceinfugos, which went to sea yesterday afternoon, only ventured as far as the light ship, and then put about and dropped, anchor in Gravesend bay. Encountered Heavy Storms. Savannah, Ga., Sept. 23. The steam ship Kansas City, from Nevv Y'ork, and the Dessong, from Philadelphia, arrived here this moruing. They caught very heavy storms of Hatteras, encoun tering heal winds that retarded them several hours. Ihe masters report pass ing several schooners "hove to" on the way witn water dashing over them. CORBETT IS" INDIGNANT. lie Abuse Sullivan for Hit Accusation of Him. Portland, Me., Sept. 2H. Pugilist Corbett was indignant today when shown the dispatch sent out by John L. Sullivan last night accusing him of beating about the bush. Corbett said iu substance These people don't cut any ice with me. Sullivan had always more mouth than courage. He is a quitter from the word go aud I do uot want to have anything to do with him. lie is out. of it. but there is one thing if I ever meet Fitzsimmons in the rinr I will make him a better fight than Sullivan did with me. Of course Jake Kilrain, Sullivan and Jackson are sore aud I know it, but it does not make any difference to me. "The Olympic club does not want a fight; they want to make money out of me. Now I am not inclined to humor them until I have proof that Fitz simmons is somewhere in my class, aud this lie can demonstrate by knock ing out O'Donnell. I am making good money now, and am not taking any risks to please any number of soreheads." Corbett became excited as he talked, and plainly showed that he is deeply touched by the numerous stories which have been circulated within the past few hours. TAKEN TO LANSING. SHerift" Burdge Taltes four Topeka Hurfj lars to the State Ienitexitiary. Sheriff Burdge took four burglars to the state penitentiary at Lansing this morning. They are: Fred Tulip, Wm. Preston, Sidney Pickens and Con liyan, who go for terms of from eighteen months to six years. Fred Tulip, whojrobbed Squires' drug store of thirty boxes of cigars, was sen enced for 4 years. Preston got. 5 years for the robbery of a Rock Islaud freight car. To accomplish this the car seal was broken, which constitutes a separate penitentiary offense. Sidney Pickens burglarized Culver Bailey's hardware store, and is sentenced for six. years. It was not his first offense. Con Ryan, his accomplice, received a sentence of 13 months. With the exception of Preston the convicts are from 21 to 23 years of age and home talent, having grown up with the Fourth street gaug. There ia a lesson in their lamentable downfall that a lot of bad boys around town would do well to profit by. May lis l.ejcal Contest. There may be' a legal contest over the action of the Democratic congressional committee which on last Tuesday decid ed to put Congressman Jerry Simpson's name on the Democratic ticket There is a question whether the committee had a legal right to do so. Chairman Richardson said when asked by a Jocenal reporter whether he thought the committee had a right to en dorse Simpson, when he was uot nomi nated by the convention: l,I do not know. I am not a lawyer, and you had Letter eea the attorney general." ASHES TO ASHES. Tlie Fun pal of t fiarles C. Martin is Large -.ly Attended. The funeral of Charles C.

Chicago, Sept. 28. The arguments in tho Debs case were completed today. Attorney Erwin of St Paul finished for the defense in an eloquent address in which he intimated that the rumors that tho railroad oilicials were responsible for the burning of cars during the strike would bo thoroughly investigated. Associate Counsel Edwin Walker made the closing speech for the prosecution, finishing at the afternoon session. Mr. Erwiu interrupted Mr. Walker once during the speech. The old lawyer had just said that the president of the United States had recoc;ij;zed the neces- ssity of compelling the A. R. U. to respect the mail service of the United States and I tlie interstate commerce law. I "Did the president authorize the pres ent proceedings in this courts" asked Mr. Erwin.

Steve O'Donnell has published a challenge to fight Bob Fitzsimmons to a finish under Marquis of Queensterry rules, for $5,000 a side and the largest purse offered by any re putable club.

This is a face CIVIC FEDERATION. The Xew 3Iovement Appears in Several Places. Jersey City Will Have a Vigi lance Leajrue AS IN XEW YORK. While Galesburg is Forming a Civic Federation Like the Big Organization in Chicago. New York, Sept 28. The latest cler gyman to start a moral crusade in Jer sey City is the Rev. James Parker of tho Second United Presbyterian church on Hancock avenue. This gentleman pro poses to start a society which is to be modeled somewhat after the famous Parkhurst society in New York. The Rev. Mr. Parker says, "The so ciety will be non-sectarian and non-partisan, and under no circumstances will it enter politics." Ihe main object will bo to see that the laws in Hudson county and especially those providing for a proper observance of the Sabbath be ob served. The authorities are daily in duced by powerful influences to close their eyes to certain things. We will open their eyes and give them backbone. "When the forces of vice are daily brought to bear on any official and no body opposes tliem, it is natural that he should be swayed and give way to them. Nearly all the ministers iu the county favor the society and will join it. All laymen who are interested in this move ment will be welcomed. Our movement may develop into one as grand as that of which the Rev. Dr. Parkhurst U the head." WANTS A I KDHKATIOX, TOO. ialeburg Makes a Mart Toward a Civic Federation. Galesburo, 111., Sept. 28. Among the citizens here there is much indignation over the laxity shown by the officials during the lust week: while the races were iu progress. From assurances given last spring it was supposed that Manager C. W. Williams would keep the fair grounds clear of all obnoxious features. It was on this condition that many busi ness men subscribed toward the fund to secure Mr. Williams' track. Eight or ten gambling room.3 indiffer ent parts of the city were opened aud fitted with parapharnalia for all well knovvn games. They were owned by gamblers from Chicago, Peoria and oth er cities. Day and night they were run openly without guards at the doors. In a large room off the office of a leading uptown hotel pools were sold openly. At the fair grounds a wheel of fortune with eight tables was run in the space under the amphitheater. Iu addition to the gamblers, pick-pockets, thieves aud dis reputable women swarmed the streets. A Chicago detective here on duty said it seemed to him as if every pick-pocket in Chicago was :n Galesburg. Some attempt was made to capture the thieved. The officers seemed unwilling tn raid any of the gambling houses, so Godfrey Haas, secretary of the Young Men's Christian association, swore out warrants and they were placed in the hands of the sheriff to serve. Only one place was raided. City officials are said to have informed the others that they had to close. Outside of the one raid no arrests were made. One of the sights on tho streets Saturday was a dray loaded with gambling implements on the way to the freight house. The gamblers pro fess great indignation over this breach of faith, and claim that they came here on an understanding in black and white that they should not be molested. An investigation of the case is now in prog ress and sensational disclosures are ex pected. A start has been made toward forming a Civic Federation for the en forcement of the law. AT TEKKE HAl'TK, TOO. Tlie Need of a Civic Federation JJeelarerf by Pastor Hunter. Tkrre HalVe, Ir.d., Sept. 28. Rev. R. V. Hunter of the Central Presbyterian church who, on Sunday, created a sensa tion by attacking the Trotting associa tion for selling for f 5,000 the wheel of fortune privilege at the recent race meet ing, publishes a card in which Ue tella how he furnished the grand jury some time ago with evidence as- to public gambling, but could obtain no prosecu tions because, as a grand juryman told him, the officials would not permit it He says: "The gambler has immunity in this country, and everybody knows It. Two men practically govern our police force because they secured the places for the police commissioners. The people pay taxes to uphold a police force which is run in the interests of a few men who have a business interest that must not be affected by police, interference. I have been looking up some of the jobbery connected with our city government and I am astounded. We need a Civic Fed eration and we are "going to have it The morals of Terre Haute have been de bauched long enough by a few con scienceless, heartless and shameless lib ertines." Xlie Ueath Roll. J. W. Pike died at his home at 419 Leland street yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock, of neuralgia of the heart. He was taken sick suddenly and died in two hours. The funeral was held at 3:30 p. m. today from the residence. Virgie Niccom, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Nicccaa, who live near Tecumseh, died yesterday. The funeral was held today. The district court adjourned this after noon until 4 o'clock in order to give the court, jurymen and lawyers an oppor tunity to attend the funeral of Charles Martin. At 4 o'clock the Nick Childs case will be resumed. MOKE LAW BREAKING. A Prize Fljjlit Two Police Station Itiock From the There was a pnza light last night in a basement within two blocks of the police station. Of course the police or the county authorities did not know any thing about it and an anxious public is patiently waiting to hear of arrests. This fight was clearly within the jurisdiction of the police department. The principals were Lon Bennett, a colored fighter from Junction City and a prize tighter named Cavanaugh frmn Kansas City. All the rutlians from all over Kansas and Missouri gather here to fight because it is tha only place where such things are permitted. In Kansas City they are promptly arrexted.- The fight is described as being a vicious one. The colored man had everything his own way and would have easily put Cavanaugh out if they had fought to a finish, but the fight was declared a draw at the end of six rounds and a purse of a little mora than $20 was divided between tlie men. There wore about thirty Tope S a 'Vports who witnessed the tight. It was originally intended to havo the men meet tonight, and everything ws arranged accordiujrly, but the announce ment in last night's Jot rnai. that thn fight was to take place and cnlliug the attention of the oilicials to the fact, whs the cause of it being brought off last night Both men said they were anxious to get out of town, and the money will enable them to do that Two young cigarmakera had planned a fight to come off within a day or two, but they have temporarily abandoned the meeting "until things quiet down," as they express it. Everything is arranged for the biggest fight of the season to take place on Sun day. Of course County Attorney Safford is not expected to know anything Hbout any of these disgraceful violations of the law. Chief Lindsey can now put some of his men to work on last night's light, which took place in the shadow of the police statiou. If County Attorney Saf ford "can-t" perhaps Chief Lindsey can be more successful in (securing evider.co now that ho has the opportunity. It is idle to believe that tho ollieera of the law don't know about these prize fights. It is just as easy for them to find out as it is for the State Journal. Tho only reason why they don't ferret out this out fit is because they don't want to. REPU BLICAN S EXCITE I).

The press on which Cyrus Corning has printed his paper, the New Era, tince it started is now stored in Ed Snow's rooms, better known as the Populist League rooms. Mrs. Mary E.

It ace ma that be fore Corning commenced fighting tho Populist. administration he wanted to buy a presn, and did not have any money. 1 he press ho wanted cost $000 in Kansas City, and Mrs. Lease one day, when sho was loan ing the Advocate $400, made Corning happy by taking a $200 interest in his business, the $200 being paid on thu longed for press. A few days ago the man who sold the press urged Mrs. Lease to pay the balance of the purchase price, but she did not have the press and before she paid out any more money she made up her mind to get in her posses sion the press which was lant evening moved out of Coming's printing office and stored under the roof of his political enemy. 1 1 ILL WILL OP E X.

They Both Strongly Praise the New Tariff Law. LoXDoy, Sept. 23. The dinner g-iven by the chamber of commerce of London to Congressman Wilson of West Virginia, took place at the Hotel Metropole last evening-. About seventy guests were present, inelud- j ing- J. Sterling- Morton, secretary of agriculture and his two sons, Paul and Joyce Morton, Congressman Strauss of New York, Sir Courtney 10. j Boyle, permanent secretary of the board of trade and commerce. United States Ambassador Bayard and James R. Roosevelt, secretary of the United States ambassy, bent re- g-rets. During- the dinner Mr. Wilson con versed with Sir Albert Kaye Koilit, the chairman of the evening-, on the tariff and other questions. After the toast to the queen had been drunk, j the chairman proposed a toast to the president of the United States, which was drank standing-. Proposing- a toast to the guests, Mr Albert Rollit said that Mr. Wilson's name had become honored and famil- j iar in England. In honoring the guests he said, they were honoring London and its chamber of commerce asked them to take back with thera a message of peace and jfood will. Nothing, he went on, could be worse j than a war between the two great j allies. That was why arbitration in j the Alabama and Retiring sea cases j was acceptable to Great Britain. lie j was not sure that the worst wars of the future would not be tariif wars. If, as we hoped, the period of tariffs was beg-inning to end, both countries ought to honor Mr. Wilson. The benefit had already been experienced in England. Furnaces had been re opened in Wales and Yorkshire and an impetus had been given to the textile industries. lie acrain wel comed Mr. Wilson an 1 Mr. Morton, whose names he had courted in the toasts. Mr. Wilson, rising to respond, was greeted with cheers which lasted sev eral minutes. The various points in his speech were als warmly cheered. After acknowledging- the honor conferred upon birr, and reciting the events of the long struggle to over throw protection, Mr. Wilson said: "All the people saw our system was generating a brood of monopolists so powerful as to defy the law and which used a part of the wealth they draw from sharing in the power of taxa tion to increase their privileges, de bauch elections and corrupt leg isla tion. "I am quite sure our protective policy has already served to promote the trade of other nations, and if con tinued, it would still further promote such trade and preminently your own. So, standing before you, a rep resentative of those who are the United States, I fear I cannot ask you to rejoice at its adoption except as you may prefer right principles to selfish advantages. Protection has seen our voluntary withdrawal from the seas and from the natural mar kets. Our protectionists have been building defences to keep you and other nations from competing with us in our home market. The tariff reformers are break down these defences. Let us compete in all markets of the world. Not only is our production of cotton and food products growing- more rap idly than our consumption, but we have to-day a manufacturing plant, which urged to its full capacity would in six months fully meet our demand for a year. 'The tariff, hitherto, has given many temptations to form trusts and limit the output. But, fortunately, the way now seems open to give the working people more control over their wages and to break up the mo nopolies which are corrupting our politics, must be with ourselves. Without boasting, I may say that it is not in our line to long be under lings. This is the real meaning of thT aspirations of the greater reform movement in America. It is in no selfish, exultant temper that I thus give you neighborly warning- of our plans and expectations. "We are constantly conflrme 1 in the belief," continued Mr. Wilson, "that our supply of materials is more exhaujdless and more cheaply han dled than that of any other people, and if we eontinueto be underlines it is our own fault. We are being rap idly sobered, though unappalle l, by the truth forced upon us, that of all human governments, a free govern ment is the most complex and diffi cult, and judging from the world's experience, the most uncertain and shortlived. Our institutions are strong because they are deeply rooted in the past. It is for you and for us to show that while other nations have been great in war, commerce, science, etc., we can be great in all, and great in the greatness of permanent freedom." Secretary Morton was the next speaker. He said that Mr. Wilson had stated what was absolutely correct, and that the people of America had finally said adieu to the protective system. Free trade had been used as a boog-y with Americans, but at last the farmers recognized that free trade did not compel trade anywhere, but simply permitted an American citizen to trade wherever it was most ad vantageous. He spoke strongly in favor of arbitration, and said that Great Britain and the United States must soon arrange an arbitration treaty, so that brute force would cease to be a factor, standing armies would pass away as daws, and war would become impossible. God speed the hour when such a treaty should be ratified, Mr. Morton then said, "We Americans feel at home here." and the remark was loudly ap plauded. EII.L HAS NOTHING TO SAT. lie ill 2fot Talk Until Officially Noti fied of Hi. Nomination. Albany, N. Y., Sept. 23. The spec ulation here regarding" the accept ance or declination of candidates nominated" by the Democratic state convention continues, A peculiar situation confronts Senator HilL By a resolution of the convention the chairman was directed to appoint a committee of five members to no tify nomidnes of their selection. Senator Hill, being- jointly the pre siding officer and the selected nomi nee for srovernor, could not very well appoint, a committee to notify him S self. Clerk De Freest of the state j committee and the secretary in chief of the convention, will appoint the j committee to-day. Of course, none of the candidates will show discour tesy to the committee by giving their answer to the committee before the visit of the committee. I Senator Hill is resting quietly at I his home near here. He was in his law office yesterday, but saw only a small per cent of the people who called. To a reporter he said: "I have arrived at no decision as yet as to this nomination. In fact, I have not been officially notified, and until I am I cannot say anything in the premises. I have hardly had time to think over the sensational events of yesterday." Senator Hill has received hundreds of congratulatory telegrams from people all over the country. Some of them are in the form of petitions ask ing him not to decline the nomina tion. CAMPAIGN DOLLARS. How the Ignorant Southerners Are Fooled by New Silver Wheels. Raleigh, N. C, Sept 23. Five thou sand dollars were shipped into this city a few days atro from Washington. They have been placed in the banks, and are being paid in conjunction with paper money to the cotton planters, who are now disposing of their crops, and to the neero workmen who help to pick and bale the snowy staple. All the dollars are of the vintage of 1804, and each of them is an unanswer able proof that the Democratic adminis tration has not entirely ceased the coin ing of silver. It is needless to say that this is one of the methods by which the Democratic campaign committee of this state is solidifying the eilver-loving ele ment in the party. Monument to General Snlllvan. Durham,' X. II., Sept. 23. The mon ument to Major General John Sulli van was dedicated yesterday under the auspices of the grand lodge of Masons of New Hampshire. It is of Concord granite, and bearsan inscrip tion as follows: "In memory of John Sullivan; born February 17, 1740; died January 23, 1705. Erected bv the state of Xew Hampshire, upon the site of the meet in? house un ier which was stored the gunpowder taken from Fort William and Mary." BItlEFS BY WIRE. Launt Thompson, the noted sculp tor, died at the state hospital at Mid dletown, N. Y. The Eleventh Illinois district, Re publican convention nominated Walter Reeves for congress by ao lamation. Myron Bates of Youngstown, Ohio, is missing. On July 4 he left home on a bicycle bound for Washington. Since that time he has not been heard from. October 1 the postoffice at Green field and tSarcoxie, Mo., will become presidential offices with a salary of SI, 000 each. Perry, Ok., office will receive 82,000 per year after that date. Dispatches from Cincinnati and Bay tet. Paul, on the north shore of the St. Lawrence river, report a ligrht earthquake shock at S o'clock Thurs day morning, lasting about thirty seconds. The Republicans of the First Ohio congressional district nominated Charles P. Taft to succeed Bellamy Storer, and of the Second district, Jacob H. Bromwell to succeed Mayor Cald well. F. W. Porter, auditor of the Chi cago, Rock Island and Pacific railway, was stricken with apoplexy at the Grand hotel at Cincinnati, Ohio, just as he was starting for the train to Chicago. He is not expected to sur vive. The proposal of Mexico to hold a conference of the countries of North and South America has not as yet ad vanced so that the meeting can be held in October as was contemplated. The invitations were issued last March. The mixers and teasers' trouble is spreading throughout the Pitts burg district. The men at the New castle, Pa., window glass factories now threaten to strike agaCinst a pro posed reduction of 12 per cent on the new scale. In Cincinnati Louis Miller, aged 40, Thursday, murdered his wife and then killed himself. He was drunk and jealous. Their only children are two daughters, aged 18 and 12 years respectively, who witnessed the double trag-edy. A statement prepared at the inter nal revenue bureau shows that during the first two montns of the present fiscal year the receipts from internal revenue amounted to S56.840, 873, an increase over the receipts of 1S93 of 26,832,876. The total receipts for August last were 15,133,692 in excess of August, 1893. Secretary Gresham has received a message from Vice Consul Dawson at San tealvador, saying: "Yellow Mrs. Pollock attacked." Consul A. L. Pol lock died there a few days ago of yel low fever, and the secretary assumes from the above dispatch that the con sults widow has been attacked with the same dread disease. In Chicago Thursday Assistant Dis trict Attorney Rosenthal closed the arguments for the government in the Debs case. He was followed by S. S. Gregory for the defense. Mr. Gregory contended that working-men have a right to strike, based on the con stitution and that any interested party has a right to order a strike. Read the "Wants."

THE ATE D THEM BADLY. Mrs. Peary Conies in for Some Blame. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 28. Since the return of the Peary expedition from North Greenland on Tuesday last, there have; been stories of dissat isfaction on the part of the members concerning Peary's conduct on the en terprise and the quality and quantity of the food he compelled them to eat. The interview had with Mrs. Peary in Washington, in which she said she was at a loss to understand the com plaints, has caused much discussion here, and yesterday afternoon mem bers of the party held a conference at the Bingham bouse to consider the advisability of making a statement of their reasons for dissatisfaction. The conference was held behind closed doors and lasted several hours. At its conclusion the members de clined to state what ha been decided upon, further than it was not the in tention to make an answer to Mr.i. Peary's statements at this time. The party has not yet disbanded, however, and a further consultation may be held to-day. W. T. Swayne, who was one of the party and went out with Peary as pri vate secretary, said: "We are under no contract with Peary. As reg-ards dissatisfaction with his manag-a meat, the only agreement that exists was made by us on board ship while we were returning to Philadelphia. Wre then agreed we would say nothing un less Mrs. Peary opened her lips. "This she did yesterday, and I con sider myself at perfect liberty to speak. As for my contract with Peary, it has been broken by him re peatedly during the course of the ex pedition. "He agreed that we were to be treated as gentlemen. For one thing I can say that Lieutenant Peary cer tainly did not act as a gentleman among gentlemen. I see Mrs. Peary has something to say about the food. Let me give you our menu during the last two months of our stay, while we waited for the relief party. The menu was the outcome of Peary's arrangements and was due to insufficient provision in the beginning: Breakfast, corn meal mush, sprinkled by Peary with sugar and with a sparing hand; bacon with all the fat fried out of it; an oc casional spoonful of Boston beans out of a can; coffee. Lunch, boiled seal meat, tasting like stale mutton fla vored with coal oil; corn bread; tea. Dinner, reindeer meat, when we could get it; seal meat, when we could get it; and don't omit this one-half a slice of white bread; coffee. "On Sunday evening, as a special treat, we had for desert one can of tomatoes-among the party. "What Peary and his wife had we don't know. They lived apart and not one of us was ever admitted to their quarters. Peary treated us to a lot of red tape and autocratic rule that had serious consequences. I am lame on account of it. He would order some of us to go a seventy-five mile sledge journey to get food for his dogs and only give us an hour's warning, when half a day should have been accorded. My toe, which lames me, was frozen in just that way. "And one thing that I can add, no Arctic expedition can ever succeed wdth a woman along to hamper it." It is understood that Professor Chamberlain of the University of Chicasro, who accompanied the aux iliary expedition as geologist, has se cured valuable data bearing on gla ciers. During July 25 and 2( 'e made a personal examination of seventeen glaciers end he was Lieutenant Peary's guest at Anniversary lodge for a fortnight. The other members of the relief party say he was really the only scientist who learned all he went to seek. WANTS A DIVORCE. Sam Small's Daughter Files a Petition for Legal Separation. Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 23. A bill for divorce was filed at Knoxville, Tenn., yesterday of more than gen eral interest. Lola Small Jackson, daughter of the famous evangelist, Rev. Sam Small, of Atlanta, Ga,, sues her husband, James Jackson, for absolute divorce and the custody of her child, now about 1 year old. Upon the death of his father, two years asjo, the bill alleges, Jackson inherited 830,000. While at Tate Springs, an East Tennessee summer resort, he met the plaintiff in the summer of 1892, and on August 24 of that year he married her. They went to Knox ville to live immediately, after, but Jackson soon began to drink heavily, was a frequenter of gambling houses and a sp?ncthrift. Within two years from his marriage he had squandered all his money and the plaintiir was forced to return to her parents, while defendant went to Texas, where he now resides. Besides the charge of non-support, the bill alleges that Jackson often had delerium tremens, aud while in this condition often threatened to shoot his wife. Qnantrell'a Watch Fonod. Sedalia, Mo., Sept. 23. A very in teresting relic has been found by James Hickman, a farmer near Lone Jack, Johnson county. During the the war the famous guerilla, Bill Quantrell, lost a valuable gold watch in Mr. Hickman's field while passing through it on a raid. He offered a large reward for its recovery, but the watch was never found until the rains washed it to the surface a few days ag-o. CORIJETT ISN'T READY. The Champion Sys -Fits Most Work ,t to Ills Class. Lewistos, Me.. Sept. 28. Champion James J. Corbett, who appeared here in "Gentleman Jack," was first made acquainted with the fact that Fitz simmons -had published a formal challenge to fight him by an Assoei- ated Press reporter after, the per formance. The champion read the letter aloud to Steve O'Donnell, and when he came to the place whore the middleweight pledged liimself not to attempt a knock out, be roared with, laughter. "Well, Steve, what do you think of that," said Corbett, while O'Donnell smiled. After he bad finished read ing the challenge Corbett turned to the Associated press reporter and said: "Of course I expected Fitz would do something of this bort, but he is too ambitious. I wUl attend to him, how ever, when the proper time comes. j and will answer hla letter in a few I da vs." "I don't propose to fight him," con tinued the champion, "until he has defeated someone worth mentioning. What's the use of my fighting a mid dleweight when there are plenty of men who can do him easily. He wants to skip over all the other heavyweights and tackle me." O'Donnell Challenges Fitz. Bostox, Mass., Sept. 28. William A. Brady, manager of Puglist J. J. Corbett, baa issued the following "challenge: "I hereby challenge Robert Fitz simmons to fight me to a finish under Marquis of Queensbury rules for $5, OOO a side and the largest purse offered by any reputable club. As evidence of good faith, I have this day deposit ed $1,000 with David Blanchard of Boston. I have never been beaten, never been knocked down, and I claim first chance at this man who aspires to the world's championship. I will meet Mr. Fitzsimmons or his representative in New York any. day next week in order to arrange the preliminaries of the match. Steve O'Donxell." A DIFFICU LT PROBLEM. Forecast of rhe Keport of the Chicago Strike Labor Commission. Wabhin-gtox, Sept. 2S. The United States commission appointed to inves tigate the Chicago strike, after a two day's executive session for the pur pose of discussing and deciding on the nature of the report to be sub mitted to the president, adjourned last evening until the last week in October. The commission was able to harmonize such difference of opinion as existed, and there will be no mi nority report. "The solution of the .problem with which we are to deal," said one of the commissioners, "is a more difficult one than that of the civil war. The government knew what it had to do meet force with force. This problem is beset with all the perplexities that surround the rights of capital and of personal liberty. We have had the experience of other countries to guide us. The report will discuss the ques tion in, all its phases and I think oiler something practical, although, of course, any legislation must be ten tative." It is believed the report will lay special stress on arbitration, and will offer a general scheme for the settle ment of future difficulties. Killed Two Men. Mcskogee, Ind. Ter., Sept. 28. Charlie Smith, a Cherokee negro, who has recently served eight years in the penitentiary for killing a man several years ago, yesterday added t wornore to his death list. He cut the lines to a delivery wagon in town and because John Welch, another negro man, re monstrated with him against it, grabbed a pistol ,from the belt of a bystander and shot him three times and mortally wounded him. Robert Marshall, another negro, but en In dian police, aproached to arrest him and, without notice, he shot Marshall through the heart. Policeman Simp Bennett shot another man by mis take in attempting to arrest Smith, but this last shooting was slight. Smith escaped but was caught soon after and will go to Fort Smith for trial. There is not a doubt that he will hang. Tlotkin Nominated for Congress. Independence, Kan., Sept. 23. The Populists of the Third congressional district in convention at Cherryvale, yesterday afternoon nominated Rev. J. D. Botkin, of Neodosha, for con gress on the first ballot. About two months ago he resigned as pastor of the First Methodist church at W elling ton, after which he moved to Neodosha in order to qualify himself as a candi date for congress. This nomination was rendered necessary by the with drawal from the race of Jeff Hudson, the former nominee of the party. Chicago society Sensation. Chicago, Sept. 28. Allen C. Wilde of the firm of James C. Wilde Co., well-known merchants of this city, has been adopted by the widow of the late Professor Garrison of Chicag-o. Mrs. Garrison before her marriage was Lady Mary Berry of England, and heiress to extensive estates there. Mr. Wilde, who is 33 years old and a prominent club man, met Lady Berry several years ago, and she, taking a great fancy to him, has decided to make him her heir. The adoption has caused a sensation in Chicago so ciety. Why They Cannot Fight. London, Sept. 28. The Pall Mall Gazette publishes a letter from Shanghai dated August 17, saying the Chinese navy cannot fight because the ships have only about twelve rounds of ammunition per ship, the supply of ammunition having been sold by the captains of the warships. The corre spondent adds that one of these com manders actually sold one of his Arm strong guns and went to sea one gun short. Van Horn Nominated for Con ffrtjst. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 28.

We "rode cn a puss and paid the Santa Fe road by advertising for just six months. When the road found we were not to be hu.hed in advocating railroad legislation, a renewal was not forthcom ing. There is not a Populist paper in this part of Kansa3 that we know of that lias this privilege of advertising for a pass. On the contrary, there is not a Re publican paper that does not have it, so far as we know. People's Paper, Staf ford. This applies to our case also. The Beacon was cut oil two years ago, while every other paper in this county carries a pass, some of them with less than half the circulation of this paper. Oil, these railroad officials are a sweet set! They are nearly as pure as the driven snow. Great Bend Beacon. We think that both these papers labor under a misapprehension. Ia it because they are Populist papers that the rail road company has ceased to do bus'.aosa with them, or rather isn't it because these papers have heaped abuse on the railroads? In the above the Beacon says: "Oh, these railroad officials are a sweet set! They are nearly aa pure as the driven snow." If the Beacon is accustomed to using that kind of language toward one of its customers, is it surprising that that customer withdraws his business? Would the Beacon publish such sayings about any one of its patrons in Great Bend? Many newspapers think they are free to abuse a railroad company ad libitum, but the members of a railroad company have feelings ju3t like other people. A corporation may have no soul, but the people who compose it have, and they will resent insulting things said of them. Railroad legislation and even govern ment ownership of railroads may be dis cussed in sober argumentative tone as all such things ought to be discussed, but there is no excuse or demand for violent personal denunciation of railroad mana gers. They are following a legitimate business, one that has been of incalcula ble importance to the country and are entitled to tha same consideration as any other class of business men. If the people or a part of them believe that the present system of running rail roads ia not the best, they have every right to discuss these matters, but an editor should not expect to abuse the men who manage the railroads and at the same time get their advertising. That would be expecting too much of human nature. Neosho County Chronicle: The news papers of Kansas have responded nobly to the stand taken by the Topeka Joch kal demanding that judges, especially those of the supreme court, refuso tj ac cept free passes from the railroad com panies. The position of the Journ al is a strong one, has but one sida to it, aud whether it succeeds in its endoavor or not, will be sustained by tha people. There is nothing, absolutely no return that a judge in the supremo court or any other court can give to a railroad com pany in lieu of the courtesy of free trans portation from a railroad company, un less it would ba to favor the company in some litigation it might have with indi viduals. Yet for years the judges of Kansas, the members cf the supreme court, have traveled on pases from the railroads throughout their jurisdiction. What a disagreeable story this is that comes from Dr. McCaaey'a castle of wretchedness west of town. A poor old soldier's chair ia taken away from him and given to one of the members of the state board of charities Topeka Jock- HAL. The chair was taken by W. S. Wait and the World does not believe Dr. 31c Casey was a party to it We know that there is bad blood between McCasey and Wait. Lawrence World. Dr. McCasey a3 superintendent of the insane asylum could have prevented the chair from being taken from the old soldier. That is just what ails McCasey; he hasn't the backbone to prevent abuses at the asylum. It is not vicioua ness that is HcCaaey's failing, so much as it is weakness and incompetency. If he were a man of force and character he would manage his institution without perpetual fights and insurrections, or he would resign. Chicago has a Civic Federation to see that the laws are enforced, New York has a similar organization, Philadelphia has a municipal league. Other smaller cities are beginning to discuss the idea. Topeka should also move in this direc tion. The way to have the laws enforced, it seems, is to form a nonpartisan associ ation of citizens, none of whom shall be permitted to run for office. This associ ation shall look after the oilicers of the law and ?i them enforce the laws. With three pr'ze lights a week, where doea the boasted refinement and culture of Topeka come in? Thousands of peo ple have moved to this town from other parts of Kansas because of the reputa tion of the city for everything that ele vates and educates. Are we going to al low this reputation to be ruined by a lot of bums and plug uglies who do not add a cent to the prosperity of the town, and who do detract from its credit? 11 US.

Secretary Osborn and Auditor Prather Mads an Agreement NOT TO USE PULLMAN PASSES. Both Sent Theirs Back, But Prather Afterwards Asked, fori Trip Pass an Mas Parmer" on Passes. Secretary of State Osborn says he never rides in a Pullman car. To a State Journal reporter Secretary of State Osborn said: today I was not in town when you were interviewing the members of the state board of rail road assessors about Pullman passes, but I have this to say on that subject, I never ride in a Pullman car." "But have you a Pullman pass?" "No, I have not." "Did you ever have one?" "Yes, I did have one, but I sent it back. It was a bhort time after I received my pass that I was talking about this matter with Van Prather and told him that I did not think it was the proper thing for us to accept and ride on Pullman passes and we agreed that we would send our passes back. I sent mine back at that time and aome time afterwards Van told me he had sent his back. Since the A R. U. trouble last spring, I have boy cotted a Pullman just as I do a rattle snake. As to railroad passes, I have passoa As is customary, they were sent to me aa a state officer, and I have used them. I am opposed to the pass system aud I am not a candidate for ufilce, either." Van B. Prather doesn't seem to have kept his compact with Secretary Osborn, at le4st not in spirit. The secretary of state says to the auditor, "Let's send our Pullman passes back." The auditor says "All right," and the passes are sent back, but when the auditor wants to go east he sends and gets a trip pass. KANSAS FARMKH EN DO USES A Leading; Agricultural Paper on tlie Giving- Out of Pauses. The Kansas Farmer, non-partiaan, and the leading agricultural paper in the west, endorses the Statk Journal's agi tation against the use of passes by state aud judicial officers in the following pow erful editorial: "The w ar on the pass system has brok en out afresh and ought to be continued until it Bhall become impossible for any public official to obtain or use a free pass. It is, however, not worth while to expect to prevent officials from taking and using passes by mere force or pub lic sentiment or of morals. Human na ture is not changed by placing the pro prietor of any particular piece of it in office. Experience shows that while passes are available they will be not only accepted but sought after by the great majority of executive, legislative and judicial officers, not only for themselves, but also for the members of their families, relatives and friends, to the exhaustion of their credit with the pass-issuing power. "It is idle to say that efficials who thus solicit or even accept unsolicited these valuable "courtesies" are uninfluenced by them. ro also are the hosts of at torneys at the county seat and the county officers. "la there a reuaady? "This is a difficult question. Many remedies have been proposed, but the trouble with all was that they had to be voted on by legislators whose pockets were full of passes and whose applica tions were in for many more. The railroads themselves probably find the paas business leas burdensome than many suppose. The writer has recently taken the trouble to ask eeveral conduc tors for estimate of the percentage of traveling done oh passes. The replies vary somewhat, but the proportion of passes is less than has been believed. A late estimate is that of the miles traveled during ordinary times, less than one in two hundred is on passes. At times of conventions or political campaigns, there is considerable increase of passes, but the estimates are that even this increase is not sufficient to bring the average, in cluding newspaper passes, above one-half of 1 per cent. "It will readily be seen that so small a proportion cuts but an insignificant iigure in the business of a railroad and is not to be considered in comparison to the influence upon the pass-holders and those who hope to get passes." JOHN NEWELL A -N I PASSES. The President of the Lake Shore Strongly Opposed to Passes. In line with the railroad pass agitation now in progress the following story ia told: During the years that John Newell was president of the Lake Shore road it viras well understood that it was a diffi cult matter to get a pass over that line. So opposed waa the president to the 7tt t y tt- ii 1 i f Vf f-. o jX 11 li ii vill to a Great Day for whole pass system that persons that were really entitled to such favors often met a flat refusal. He often carried the matter 6o far as to decline to iaaue passes to railway officials, which, under the court esies between railroad officials, has been the custom, and when he issued piasses he limited such transporta tion to certain trains, so re stricting the pass that but few railway officials have ridden on the fast mail or the limited trains of that road. He car ried this limiting of passes even to rail way presidents, as is evidenced in the following statement: On a recent New Year's Piesident Newell made up his packet of exchange passes and sent them out. Across the end of the one he Bent President Caldwell waa printed in red ink the words: "Not good on limited or fast trains." By re turn mail came President Caldwell's an nual pass on the Nickel-plate to Presi dent Newell. Across its face in flaring red ink and in the bold handwriting of Jr'resident Caldwell were written the words: "Not good on passenger trains." Sirs. Mary Trainer Dead. Mrs. Mary Trainer, who was confined in the county jail awaiting trial for vio lating the prohibitory law until she was too sick from dropsy to stay there anv longer, when she was removed to Bed well's hospital on the north side, died last evening a little before supper time. She waa a widow, about forty-four ye$Qn old. She waa buried from Hogan's un dertaking rooms at 2 o'clock rfhis after noon, and was interred in the Catholic cemetery. Ilarbecns at Port Kiley, There was a big barbecue and Repub lican meeting at Fort Riley yesterday that was attended by about 4,000 people. The Rock Island put rive passenger coaches on its morning freight train from McFarland and carried 30O people. Dick Blue and George L. Douglass spoke. Three beeves were killed but they were not enough for the people. Beans That Hop. General Manager J. J. Frey, of the Santa Fe, this morning received a box of beans from Mexico. The beans jump around like bugs and are a great curios ity. There is a worm inside of each one, which makes it hop. When the worm diee, which is in about eight montha, the bean ceases to move.

SIXTH THIS IS AX OUTRAGE. Wellknown Karnes of Kansas Towns Being Changed BY THE FOSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT Vithont Consulting tlie I n habit auts F.I Kornrt'i Made One Word aad Clsalti Mound Chansed to haiU. Sccis one in the general postoiSce de partment is ruining some of the best, old historical nnies of towns in Kansas. Names given them by the inhabitants which seem to them suitable are taken away by this idiot in the postoffice de partment without even consulting the people who IHe there and meaningless monosyllables substituted. Soveral of the towns which are made tip of two nf.mea will hereafter have but one. as under the direction of the postal authorities tie two words are united. The one whose change will create the greatest f uroro is El Dorado. This name is indicative of a land of milk and honey and the goal of happiness and its resi dents are prjud of the name; but Post master General Bissell's ruthless hand has shorn it of all its poetic significance and it must hereafter be written El dorsvla Clay Center and Fort Scott are not mo lested, but the next issue of the Postal Guide may announce their change. Pitts burgh, in Crawford county, loses its final "h." The sime change is made in Wil liamsburgh. Morrow station, in Wash ington county.is changed to Morrowviile. Chalk Mound, Wabaunsee county, loses the second name and becomes simDlv Chalk. 3 The historical name of Doniphan is changed to Orr. Pretty soon Atchison will be changed to Glick. The names which are united are: Big Springs, to Bigsprings; Clear Water, Sedgwick county, to Clearwater; Glen Grouse, Cowley county, to Glengrouse; Good Inter t, Atchison" county, to Good intent; La Fontaine, Wilson county, to Lafontaine; Maple Hill. Wabaunsee county, to Maplehill; Oak liill, Clav county, to OakhUl. Assistant Postmaster Wolfe, of the To pek office, eays he understands that the changes were made for the convenience of the deptrtment It is doubtful if this new order will really work the change desired. People will not rsadily take to writing two words in one, even if it is the wish of the postal authorities, and letters will be ad dressed to Maple Hill" and "El Dorado" just as thjy were before the changes were made. The origins of many of the names of Kansas towns are traced to some pretty tradition, and it remains to be seen whither all this can be destroyed by a strok of the pea of some foolish government official. DEATH OF I. V. DAK Ell, Ilrother of F. P. and liidrnn Haker lasse Away at Cointtot'ks, ew York. Gideon D. and F. P. Baker received a telegram last night announcing the death of their only other brother, I. V. Baker, 5at his home in Com?tocks, New iork. Lnlike his brothers, 1. Baker was not engaged in the nawspaper or printing business. He has been engaged in rail road traffic business almost ever since there have been railroads, and his last official position, which he resigned ou account of old age, was the management of all the railroad interests of the Dela ware Hudson Canal Co., which leases many lines iu New York and other states, and Canada. Mr. Baker was 81 years of age, and the oldest of the living brothers. His sad death leaves only three of the eleven "Baker children," F. P. Baker, aged 74; Gideon Baker, aged 62, and Mrs. George Millard, of Burling ton, Iowa, aged 07. F P. Baker intended to go east and visit his brother October 1st, in company with Mrs. C. C. Baker. As the funeral will be hsld Sunday after noon they would not be able to reach Comstocks in time to attend the funeral, bo they will probably not go. PLENTY OF WATER NOW.

The supply has teen secured from a pond and Mr. Ilinshaw says it has for thirteen years been of the consistency of molasses. A movement was made at one time to take the institution away from Olathe because of the insufEcient supply of water and the city constructed the pond which has ierved the institution since that time.

Several Topeka sports who lost money at the races here are attending the Bis marck races to retrieve their fortune. The Atchison Globe says: "Don't go crazy till after November.

The Topeka letter carriers have not yet got their back pay for over time which they have been looking for, for several months. Their claims are being looked after by the attorney of the letter carriers' association in Washington. Mose Matthews the lawyer, is now at Decatur, Alabama. He was arrested about a year ago on the charge of forg ing the name of a federal judge to a court order, but when his case came to trial he was discharged. 8. B. Isenhart saw him in Decatur about three weeks ago. A disorderly house has been estab lished on Tenth street close to a row of the finest residences in the city. The neighbors are left to enjoy it the best they may, for Hank Lindsey's police force never disturbs auchan establishment as this, and the governor wouldn't com plain if he had one right under his nose. ARTZ GOT A WRIT. He Oets HU Client Out of Jail on Writ of Habeas Corpus. 1L II. Artz, ex-adjutant general, attor ney and agitator, accomplished his first victory !aat evening since he has become identified with the Shawnee county bar. Charles Williams is in Justice Grover's court charged with stealing a horse from Finch's livery barn in North To peka. The fact appears to be that Wil liams rented the horse and turned it over to another man to return, but the third party was tardy in following in structions. General Artz after working on the case finally got Judge Hazen's signature to a writ of habeas corpus by means of which Williams was shortly aftewards released from the county jaiL Fixins the Sixth Street Bridre. The street force is at work repairing the Sixth street bridge across the Shun ganunga.

The pavement is taken up and cleats are put on the open ings and the pavement is then relaid. C. K. HOLLIDAY AT SCHOOL. Charlie is Attenilingr'the Law beliool at Lawrence. Charle3 K. Holliday, Jr., is a state uni versity law student. It is not generally known because Mr. Holliday has not been a liberal advertis er of himself during the last few weeks but it is true that he is reading Black stone and rubbing up on international law. Mr. Holliday goes down to Lawrence every morning, listens to the lectures iu the university law schools ami returns to Topeka in the afternoon. The political friends of Mr. Holliday say he is studying law because he is out of" business and was tired doing nothing and at the same time wants to fit himself for a federal appointment as secretary of legation to some place not yet designat ed by President Cleveland. Mr. Holliday and his friends are ex pecting this long looked for federal ap pointment to be announced from Wash ington most any time. SAWYER YsTgISH.

Buck also remonstrated and there was a lively time for awhile till the officer got him to the station. Gish was so mad when he got him there that he put all three charges against him to get even drunk, disturbing the peace and resisting an oflicer. Ed Woodruff, jailer, felt his heart touched and persuaded the captain to trim off the las charge. Sawyer got a fine of $10 this morning by pleading guilty. MR. PRATIIER VERY ILL.

Mr. Gleed po:ii. neatly a month this summer in making j com plete investigation of tht-bO ditches and everything connected with them, and lit went to London to report the results of his investigations to the capitalists who hold the stock. Upon Mr. Glee l's report will largely depend the future action of Knglhh cap italists in investing in further irrigating Hchemea in Kansas.

There are really very few women who can distinguish between a giwi black silk and an inferior one, and a few hints given by an expert and re ported in the Delineator will doubtlesa be acceptable to many shoppers: In the first place never be beguiled into buying1 cheap silk. Very often a pretext of its cheapness suggests a genuine bargain, but the wise woman, unless she knows of good reason for the reduction, will choose some other ma terial if she cannot alford to purchase silk at an adequate price. Costliness is of course no guarantee of real value, so the shopper is advised to purchase an eighth of a yard of an admired fabric and test it at leisure when she reaches home. This may seem like a waste to the over-economical mind, but it will prove a good investment if it prevents a bad bargain in the end. In testing a piece of silk first try to tear it both lengthwise and crosswise. If it gives.way readily in either direc tion you may be sure either that the dye has destroyed the fibers or that the thread is made up of what is kDOwn as "waste silk." Pure silk properly dyed is the strongest textile known, but nearly all the cheaper dyes, and par ticularly the dark colors and black, are made with such a basis that they eat into and weaken the fabric. The firmness of the weave may be proved by scraping diagonally across the silk with the thumb nail. If the material is strong and pure, any amount of manipulation will not make the threads slip, and if the nail makes a space as wide as its own thickness be tween the threads the silk is certainly of inferior quality. The next test is ap plied by raveling a bit of the silk and carefully examining both warp and woof. Often a pure silk warp has a heavily loaded woof, and in other cases, especially in satin weaves, the woof has an inferior backing, the sur face being of good silk. Pure silk lias a good luster and is very soft, but if the gloss is artificial the fabric will bo hard and brittle. When a pure silk has been dyed improperly it looks very much like cotton, but it is somewhat softer. Another excellent test consists in pulling out the threads both ways and trying their strength. Catch them with both hands an inch apart, give a quick jerk and note the force needed to break them. If they part easily the silk is not good. Tear the silk along the lines from which the threads have been taken, and if there are puckers along the tear they may be regarded us indi cating a strong texture. A method of testing that is considered conclusive is to burn a fragment of the silk and also some of the ravelings. If the silk is pure and well dyed it will take tire slowly, even when held directly in the flame, and the fire will go out almost as soon as the silk is withdrawn, leav ing ashes that are nearly jet black. Weighted and improperly dyed silk i highly inflammable. It quickly takes fire, and the fire is diiticult to extin guish, smoldering after the silk is re moved from the flame and leaving ashes that keep the shape of the cloth end are of a light yellowish red tint. Cotton in the fabric can be readily de tected by the odor of the smoke. Ev ery woman should remember that the requisite qualities of good silk are strength, smoothness, luster, richness and lightness, no matter how thick the material. STAND FOR CUT FLOWERS. How to Make Oae That Is Ornamental and Vet K"ot Expensive. A loose bunch of cut flowers in a dainty bowl or vase is in harmony with almost any surroundings or setting; but such a bowl or vase of flower clus ters nowhere appears to better advan tage than on some light and graceful stand just large enough for this pur pose. Such a stand need not be expen sive to be ornamental. The illustra tion shows one that can easily be made at home. Three legs of bamboo are crossed and screwed to a ball as shown. The upper ends are inserted in a bit of square pine board one foot square is a good size. All that remains to be done is to cover this top with some delicate bit of washing silk and to fasten some of the same material down about the sides. The design given in the cut may be followed to ad vantage, or one's taste and ingenuity may be given the chance to fashion a different arrangement of the silk. In any case a finish of silk balls may well be added to the lower edge, when the whole should be pretty enough for even the daintiest of flowers to rest tspon. American Gardening. Annonnrtne Baby's Birth. To announce the birth of a baby the visiting card of the mother should be sent to relatives and friends, with the tiny card of the infant attached by narrow white ribbon to the upper left hand corner. In the pest the name of tire child was engraved upon the card, but later form dictates simply: "A Lit tle Son" or "Daughter," with the date of birth added. This leaves the name with opportunity of change until christening. War firm O'clock Tea.

A bachelor is not usually accredited with much knowledge about the proper treatment of children, but sometimes they step in where angels that is, the mothers j of the children fear to tread. A well I known man about town, who is pretty well on in years and not very fond of j children, stopped in to sec a married sister tne otner nay ana louna tier trying to amuse her little boy, about 5 years. Xot long after he arrived, she stepped out of the room to attend to some household mat ter or other, leaving him alone with tho child. The latter eyed him dubiously for som minutes. He was a spoiled child if ever there was one and had no idea of making promiscuous acquaintances. The bachelor tried to make the little one laugh, but all ho go for his antics was a sour lcok. Finally, without any warning, the child burst out crying. Hero was a quandary to be sure. lie didn't dare to pick tho boy up and soothe him. His at tempts in the verbal line were dismal fail ures. What should ho dor Finally a thought struck him. He looked at the crying youngster, aud the crying youngster looked at him through his tears. He was evidently much pleased with the impres sion ho was making. '"Cry louder," said he. The child obeyed. "Louder yet," urged the bachelor. A yell went up that would have done credit to an Indian. "Cry louder still," insisted the man, and the boy did his best to obey. "Louder," fairly howled his uncle. "I won't," snapped the infant, and ho shut his mouth with a click and was quiet for tho rest of the day. Philadelphia .Press. Personally Conducted.

Our entranced vision shall dwell upon the thrilling spectacle, and as we gazo spellbound at the majestic splen dors of this matchless scene we shall listen to the thunder of Niagara's awful voice. In its deep diapason nature shall convey to our souls through the external organs of hearing her inmost harmonies and speak to us in the language of music the music of the spheres, the symphony of the universe, immortal, untaught, with a past reaching back to the radiant morn when creation awoke from chaos and a future stretching forward to the limitless ages of eternity.

One of our lady teaohcrs wm ari interest ing young person, very intelligent ur:U at tractive. She and I made each other's ac quaintance, and I may oa well admit It first aa last we became very vrarmly at tached. The duties of Miss Hanson had UiLie very onerous, altogether too much so for her delicate frame, and I, pained to one who was sodenr to rno laboring: be yond her strength, looked about to wee if BomethiDjr better could not be obtained fur her. Gladly would I at once have 111 ado her my wife and thus have obviated the necessity of her earning her own support., but In the then state of lny flnnriw such a thing was not to Iw thought of. And so, not bolng able to do ns I would, I tried to do what I could, and success attended xny efforts. A wealthy gentleman of my acquaint ance who bad several young children, wanting a first class governess for them, I eagerly proposed Mlsn Hanson, and, her ex amination proving aatUfactory, the was duly installed ln her new situation. She found It to be easy, pleasant and profit able, and, my mind being set at rest regard ing her, I now turned my attention exclu sively to the duties of my profesnlosi, re solved to postpone for a year or two tho pleasant duties of courtship. I judired that we would both be better fitted for the faithful discharge of cur engagement seeing each other but seldom than we should otherwise be. To be sure, It would have pleased me well to have received fre quent letters from my esteemed Clara, but ..as ehe expressed herself very much avema to letter writing, I would not require her to distress herself for my sake. Several months after Miss Hanson en tered upon her work as governess the eld est son of her employer came homo. He admired Miss Hanson from the first, and It was not long before he made her aware of the fact He was pressing in his suit, ho was wealthy, he was present with her, and rny ladylove transferred her affections and her engagement to him. The employ er, discovering what was taking place, was enraged at his son's folly and at the lady's presumption, aa ho termed It, and would listen to nothing but an utter abandon ment of the engagement. He turned the young lady away, and sho proceeded to New York ln search of another situation. She had entered Into arrangements to teach for six months I do not remember where when her lover suddenly appeared before her and insisted upou a private and Immediate marriago. She consented, and after the ceremony the bridegroom went his way and the bride hers for the term of .six months. At the expiration of that time they bkIia met and proceeded to tho city of Detroit to reside. All this time no spirit whispered In my ear of danger or trouble. Calmly I laliortKl on, only now and then pausing to think contentedly of my Clara and to feel re newed satisfaction that she wns no well placed. But suddenly I hoard of her con duct of all except her marriage and of course sho was lost to me a much uh thoug'h I had known her to !o wedded. I could not overlook such deceit and heart lessneAS. Five years rolled away, nr.d on a wild, 6tormy night I arrived at Detroit. Feel ing very much fatigued, I asked to lie shown at once to my room ln the hotel. Hardly had I been loft alone when some one knocked on the door next to mine. "Who's there?" said a woman's voice.' Father, was tho reply. ''Mrs. Jenkins is below and wishes to seo you. I told her that you were not very well and had re tired, but she will take no denial." "Then she must come up here, prt. We can never dress again and go down to her." "Let me see, what was Mrs. Jenkins' maiden name?" asked one of the voices in the next room, when the futher hud with drawn. Hitherto I had been sitting in contem plative mood before my fire, hearing be cause I could not help It, the partition be ing so very thin. 'Why, she was Clara Hanson don't you know. She was our schoolmate in Boston j-eara ago." You may judgo that there was a very sudden and violent alteration In my state cf mind. In breathless expectation I awaited the coming of the visitor. She had really married Jenkins then. Present ly that well reuieiubwed step drew m ar. There was a noisy meeting, much laugh ter, many questions, many fervent expres sions of affection, of delight at being once more together. '"But, come now, let us hear each other's adventures," said Clara, uud when her friends had related their bho began to talk of hers. ''Can you imagine my feelings as I heard that woman ti ll what I have already told, and much more? I beard all as If in a dream, yet I know that it was reality as well as anything can bo In this unreal world. Presently I rose, and stealing soft ly into the hall laid Just bufore the door of the room where Clara was, one of my cards, and In excited silence waited tho re sults. It was whi I had reckoned on. Mrs. Jenkins saw it instantly as ehe stepped from her friends' room. "Some ono has dropped a note," I heard her say. I heard her move toward the tight. Then she gave a little shriek and rushed back to hor friends. "Oh, Mr. bas been here. He must have seen me come in and followed me. What shall I do!" "Who is Mr. You did not men tion him. Why do you fear him?" asked the friends. ''Oh, he was an old beau of mine," said Clara, "and I would not meet him for the world. Why, how many beaux did you have"' was the laughing inquiry. "I had u great many, and I was en gaged to four other men when I married Mr. JeiMiins. Mr. was the fourth ono." Exchange. How We Tell the Time. There are street clocks in this city whoFe faces do not lear tho usunl Koman or Arabic numerals, by which, in coiui'o tiot with the hands, we are able toteil t time, but in their place lire l'J letters, forming signs for advertiidng purposes. The.-e letters answer every purpose, und the time can be told as reacily with them as with thj conventional characters. This shows that it is riot tht kind of mark on tho face of a clock, but its loca tion, by means of which wo tell the time. If (ill of the characters on tho dial wire str ight marks, wo could tell the tiuio us well as now. Hold your watch in any position, except ing the usual one, and you will see th.aS the time can be told only wit h difficulty, ba the marks ever so plain. With a watch thus held we mentally pluce It in the proper position, and then the reading is easily done. How York Herald.
