Initially the big assemblaga came to order. "Sven raps for love hope and grati tude," said Mus Willard. After the reading of the crusade psalm and the singi ,ig of the sougs "Rock of Ayes," V t-lc ouie, Christian, Welcome," Miss Willard stepped to the front of the platform, aud the tirJt applause of the I'navont.on wis given, and handkerchiefs Cuttered in all parts of the house. .Miss Wil.ard thaukei the convention for the app.aue, and then began the de livery of her annual address, a resume of which is as follows: "The child of the crusade has lived rut its f jj'tr youth and stands on the threshold tf mature wudjoIiuuI On t lie ti".;d day of December, IS73, the first praying band of O-iio bridged with lalthful feet the distance between church and dramshop.

A Reported Scheme to Control the World's Silver Market. Millionaires to Form a Syndicate to Iiuv All Smelters. ROTHSCHILDS IX IT Will Control Prices Regardless of Supply and Demand. Terms to be Dictated to All Sil ver Usinir Countries. Denver, Nov. 16. The Rocky Moun tain News saya that a syndicate is schem ing to obtain control of the silver market j and dictate the price of the metal to all silver-using countries. I A conference was held in this city this week, it is said, at which were present j Daniel Gugenheim, of 2s ew York; j Messrs. Barton and .Nash, of Omaha; Mr. j Ilauneur, of Salt Lake, and Mr. Allen, of j the Philadelphia Smelting and Refining company ut Pueblo, and representatives i or tne loc.-il smalters ana the leading silver-producing mines. Two reports are current as to the de tails of the propose! plan. One is that a syndic-ate backed by John D. Rocke feller and the Rjthscuilds will obtain control of all the smelters in the United States and Mexico and arbitrarily tlx the price of silver regardless of the supply and demand. The proposition was made, so it is stated, that the smelters should be takeu at an appraised valuation equiva lent to cost. This was to be paid iu cash. Theu each was to have a proportionate block of stock in the new deal. The Grant people, so it is stated, wanted their plant paid for at its real value, not its cost This hitch has still to be adjusted. According to the other report the proposition is to have the silver of all the smelters haudled through one man or agency. At present the Guateuheims have a certain house, the Grant people another aud so on. There would be a saving to the smelt ers of probably a quarter of a cent an ounce, having it handled bv one man in stead of half a dozen or a dozen, but the main object would be to prevent sudden slumps ia the price of silver. 31 AX I A FOK LYNCHING.

The Constitution contains the following editorial: "If ail the reports about the attitude and statements of the treasury officials are true, the new issue of bonds advertis ed by the organs that assume to be the personal organs of the president, is like ly to create strained relations between the head of the administration aud the secretary of the treasury. "1 he situation is very peculiar. Ac cording to The New York Times, Mr. Cleveland, acting through E, C. Bene dict, the banker w ho has won notoriety by hauginir on the president's coat tails in all sorts of weather, has gone forward and made preparations for the issue of bonis without consulting the head of the treasury. It is said on the best authority that Mr. Cleveland has had conferences with the leading bank ers of Wall street at which Mr. Carlisle was not present aud to which he was not invited. The result is that while Wall street is busy making preparations for a bond issue of lOU.'jUU.UOd, Mr. Carlisle and the oificials at the treasury depart ment declare that they know nothing about it. "Bonds are to be issued, not because of any emergency that demands them, but simply and solely because of the fact that Wall street demands a safe aud profitable investment for its idle funds. On account of the prostration of business and the paralysis of enterprise occas ioned by fastening upon our people the British gold standard, the money of the country has congested in Wall street and other financial centers. This congestion of id;e money represents the miseries and sufferings of the people, but, in stead of trying to relieve it, the ad ministration proposes to make it the excuse for affording the rich bankers and the gold owners of the country a means of investing their surplus f uuds. To the miseries of the people is to be added the increasd taxation represented by the interest-bearing bonds. j "If it be true in politics that the prin j cipal is responsible for the acts of the J agent, how long will it take the Demo- cratic party to recover from the unpar j alleled infamy of this surrender of the interests or the people to the greea ana avarice of Wall street? "If thexelatiohs between the president and the putative head of the treasury are such as appiearances indicate, we think it would be wise for Mr. Carlisle to resign.

Topeka it(sm l,u itJiy, 0-5 Jackson straeL TO GET THE SENATE The Republicans Expect to Win Over Six Populist Members Kansas Senate, of the IF NOT MORE OF THEM. Anions Theni Will Be Senator Tavlor. Some of the Gossip Relating to the Move. The very latest political story Is that an effort is being made on the part of the Republicans to capture six Populist members of the state senate, which, if accomplished, will give them a majority in both houses of the legislature, and enable the Republican party to absolute ly control all legiolatiou during the com ing session. It has been six years since the Repub licans have had full swing in the leirisla- j ture and they are now exceedingly anx j ious to see how it would go once more, j As it now stands, fifteen of the forty members of tho senate are Republicans, s.nd if six other senators can be induced j to act with the majority party, the other i Populist senators might as well stay at home. The day after election Senator Sterne said to a State Journal reporter that he had the name of one Populist senator who had agreed to act with the Repub licans this winter, but he could not make his name public. It is now said that each Populist mem ber of the senate is being visited by Re publican politicians and there are good prospects that the six senators will be found without ditliculty who will !ay aside their politics and vote with tho Re publicans. A Populist editor in the western part of the state has written an editorial this week advising all the Populist senators to resign and let the Republicans have full swing, but this does not meet with the endorsement of the Populist leaders, who have a plan of their ownj It is understood that the Populist lead ers propose to instruct all their senators who are from districts which this fall went Republican to vote with the Re publicans whenever the legislation pro posed appears to be needful and proper. Tho senators will be instructed to make p. tight for Populist principles, but after their plans have beeu killed in the com mittees, they will vote with the Repub lic -us explaining that, "While I am a Populist and opposed to tha proposed legislation, the d. strict I represent has, at the recent election given a Republi can majority, I will represent my con stituents and my vote may ba recorded, aye, with the Republicans It is understood that two of the six members have already been secured, teenator Taylor of Wyandotte, has beeu lighting the Populist administration for two years and be will vote with the Re publicans. Senator Reilly of Parsons, is a railroad man and as the railroad vote of the state was cast for the Republican ticket and as h's district went Republican, this fall it is understood he has already deter mined to represent his people and vote with the Republicans. Tho Republicans may be short one member as Senator John M. Price of Atchison is a very sick man aud his friends are doubtful about his being able to be in Topeka at all during the coming session. Senator Price's absence will not how ever interfere with the success of the plan to control all legislation if tho six Populist senators are secured. With Senator Price absent and six Populist senators voting with the Re-puhliea-us, the Republicans would tit II 1 have a majority of one, and if one other member should drop out, making a tie on any question, the Lieutenant Gover nor, being a Republican, would cast the deciding vote and his party would still be iu control. MiKINIEY ASKED TO SfEAK. Wharton ltarker tVanti to Know lis Views On the loney Question. Philadelphia, Nov. 16. Wharton Barker has written an open letter to Gov ernor M cK inley asking him to publicly state his views on the money questiou, and at the same time suggesting that the Republican campaign of lb'Jlj should be made "for American protection and American bi-metalim against British free trade aud British gold rnonometal ism." Mr. Barker suggests a plan for the re establishment of silver in our coinage, which he believes is the only safe one for the United States to adopt without in ternational agreement. It i-i, first, that tne United States Khali admit silver" bullion from American mines to coinage iu its mints upon the payment by the owner of a seig nioragH absorbing three-fourths of the difference between the market (Lon don) price of the bullion and its vlue when coined. Second, that silver shall be admitted only for coinage purposes at a seigniorage absorbing all the differ ences between the market (London) price and its value when coined. He concludes his letter as follows: "The Manufacturer, a journal pub lished every Saturday under the direction of the publication committee of th .Manufacturers' club of Philadelphia, a must powerful and influential body ha placed at the head of the editorial page this declaration of faith: "The siin of 18HU.

ALTERNATE PAGE FOLLOWS STATE JOTTIIXAT,, FRIDAY BVENTN'Gr, NOVEMBER 10. 1891. WAiiTSHMHi II Congress Desire i to Know A Lout Japan-China Mediation. Representative Bellamy Storer "Wants an Inquiry Made. AUTHORITY EXCEEDED Says Administration lias Gone Bevond Its Power Wasiiixgtox, Nor. 16. Representa tive Bellamy Storer, of the commit tee on foreign afTairs of the house of rejjresentatives, intends presenting to conrebj when it reassembles, a resolution of inquiry as to the action of Secretary Gresham in suggesting to China and Japd i that this country act as mediator in the settlement of the present war. Mr. Storer is now malting- a careful examination of the subject with a xiiw to taking- the initial step-.. The resolutions when drawn will request the secretary of state to transmit to congress all correspondence on the subject, not incompatible with the public service. They will ask for information as to what departure, if any, from the tra ditional policy of tie government as embodied in the Monroe doctrine, is contemplated by ti e execu ti ve branch in becoming a factor in Asiatic en tangle merits. Mr. Storer says he lias no desire to embarrass the executive branch in any foreign policy that they wish to pnrsua. Hut as :i member of the committee on foreicn affairs, he says Bucli a foreign policy as is now con templated should properly have the attention and judg ment of congress. In examining the treaty of 1S.VS, between Chin and the United States, under which the g-overnment has su j Tested its willingnoss to mediate, Mr. istorer sa j-s the lan jua je does not con template mediation by the president or executive Lranc i alone. It recites in substance that the United States will exercise their good otiiees in case any nation :iets unjustly or op pressively against China. This, Mr. St orer poin ts out, suggests the pood osliees of the United States, but not of tie president; so it would be proper, and perhaps essential, that the congressional branch of the gov ernment should nc in ca--e such g-ood oi'lecs are to be exercised. "From a cusual inspection of the treat v, Mr. Storer a ided, "the clau- vnuld hardly seem to warrant a prop osition of mediation unless, as the treaty states, Chinn is being- treated 'I'.nji'stly or oppressively, and I do not suppose this fevern raetit would Tt e j nit -e the tronb.e between China and .Japan hysayicg the latter was acting unjustly or oppressively." Mr. S torer says t la t any action he ta' es will ":e on coi-ervative lines, as h ties-res to make his inquiry for in formation rather t lan criticism until the facts are present-id. MK. SIAXHKI I.'S KKPOItT. Vt'ork of th Fourth Asaiitarit I'otma rer (irnirl An Array of I'o t mas t ers. Washington, -o-. 1G. The annual report of II. A. Maxwell, fourth as sistant postmaster general, lias been submitted to the psstmaster general. There are three divisions under his charge appointments, bonds and commission s and p stofuee inspectors find mail depredations. The report covers the period for the fiscal year ended June 30, Is;i-. The total num ber of postotuees in operation in the I'nited sit lies on tl at data was OD.-SOS. Of these 00.377 were fourth class offices and ;!,4-S presidential; the net increase over the previous year being l.-l'v;. During the year 3.130 post c;hces were established and 1,731 dis continued. The total number of ap pointments during- -he year was 2 i 1 j and the total nurujer of eases acted on 27.5C.0, of which ,iet were in cases of removals. The employes in tlie postal service handled tti.Uoo 554 nieces of domestic registered mail during the year with the inconsiderable loss of one per cent in every 1,773. (ieneral Maxwell, in h'.s report, em phasises the neees'ity that the public should report every depredation upon the mails whether it relates to regis tered or ordinary matter and guaran tees for every complaint received the earnest attention of the department The number of arrests for offenses against the postal laws was 2, 00S. The, total number of postofSce burtr lars arrested was 31 an t 334 of the arrests were persons not connected with the postal service. General Maxwe 1 urges the ne cessity of inereasec. appropriation for the payment, of regards and promis ing for the best results looking- to the conviction of such criminals. In addition to tho recommendations on the subject of rewards Geueral Maxwell urges the necessity of more stringent statutes bearing upon the green goods and obscene matter. SOLD1K1M' IKrtSITS. "lhey Have Increased S79.S8J During the l'ast Year Paymaster's Keport. Washing ros', Nov. 15. Paymaster General s,Dl;th. in his annual report to the secretary of war, calls atten tion to the fact that soldiers' deposits have increased S TO, 583 during the year, a gratifying increase in view of tlui fact that deposits had been fall ing o;T in preeedin j years, and of the further fait that a soldier with a de posit account rarely leaves the service without an honora Ai discharge. The expenditures on account of pay of the army show an increase of S375.653 over the preceding year, due, in part, to the fact that the enlisted force was more nearly kpt at its maximum limit The fact that tiie expenditures on account of pay of volunteers were S4'j3,i",53 lets than last year is taken as aa indication that these claims are being exhausted. The paymaster general questions tiie beneficial eltect of the system of withholding- portion of the soldiers' pay until he is dis charged. The travel allowance of the eoldier Is ample to take him home when discharged, and it is ne t neces sary to withhold pay for that purpose. Any system which makes the soldier dependent detracts from his manhood and efficiency. Many men enlist, b i icg told their pay will be 13 per month, only to rind that through ds ductions on account of clothing aid withheld pay, two or three months must elapse before he can receive any pa v. lie regards this as a breach of contract and deserts. Therefore it is recommended that the system, which is cumbersome and complicated, be abolished. EXPORTS AND nirosii. Comparative Slateui-Dt Issued by tho Itureau of Statistic. Washington, Nov. 10.

The Chinese general tills the Japanese made a second at'ack upon the position he occupied on November 13, but, it appeirs, the Japanese were again repulsed and the Chinese pur sued them toward Fung Wang, which General Nieh expected to riacli soon after sending his report The simi larity between this reported defeat of the Japanese and the defeat they are said to have sustained at Motien, on the road .to Pekin. would make it appear the two engagements may be identical.

Coroner's Jury Decides Wash ington Court House Case, Says There "Was No Excuse for Troops Firing. COL. COIT IS GUILTY. Jury Decides it Was Murder in the First Degree. Washtxgtos- Court IIousp:, Ohio, Nov. 16. Coroner James M. Edwards of this city began his inquest on the five prisoners that were shot in front of the court hoase in this place on the night of October 17, 1894, two or three days after the occurrence and ob tained testimony of ninety-eight wit nesses. It was quite a surprise to many of the citizens when they learned the coroner had returned his verdict yesterday, as it wa? generally understood that the verdict would bo withheld until Colonel A. B. Coit's testimony could be obtained. The following is Coroner Edward's verdict: "After having viewed the bodies and heard the evidence I do find that the deceased Smith Welch, Mac John son, Jessie Judy, William A. Sams and Theodore Ammerman came to their death from being struck while in front of the court house on the evening of October 17, 1894, with leaden balls fired from the interior of the court house in Washington. Court House by Ohio State National Guards, who were under command of Colonel A. 15. Coit, as colonel of the Fifteenth regiment of Ohio national guards, and I do find that at the time of firing by the guards there was no imminent danger of serious destruction of property, or of harm to any one inside the court house, or the remotest danger of the prisoner, William Dolby (colored), being wrested from th- custody of Sheriff Cook. JA.Mi.sM. Edwards, Coroner." Up to this time the court of com mon pleas has not impanneled any special grand jury to consider the cases of Colonel Coit and Sheriff Cook. The regular session of the common pleas court will not be held till the first week in January, 1895, and it is not known whether tli3 cases will be deferred until then or taken up at once. T131IiEIl FIttES IN COLORADO Serious Loss of Life Feared In Lumber Camps Near lioulder. Uon.DFK, Col., Nov. 1G. A fierce fire is burning in the pine timber on the mountains west of this city. It started in a saw mill and has already burned over an area of several square miles and is spreading rapidly. Ward, a camp nineteen miles from here, hav ing about 1,000 inhabitants, and Gold Hill, a camp of 500 inhabitants, six miles nearer Boulder, are in danger of being destroyed. Meny of the in habitants have lied. Several ranches in the canyon between the two places have been burned over. G jld Hill has been abandoned to the flames. The fire is spreading toward Cooper Kock, and it is believed many small camps will be burned. The residents of Gold Hill who have not come to Boulder have assembled on the top of Horsefel mountain, and are watching the progress of the burning tire. The wind is blowing furiously and drives the fire before it in large sheets of names. The property loss cannot at present be told, but it will amount to over 3,000.000. There will necessarily be great destitution. A courier reports the destruction of about half of the property of Camp Taicott and Prussian mine and mill. C 0 N J R E S S I0NAL C ONTESTS.

The afternoon session of the Knights of Labor convention convened at 3 o'clock and adjourned at 5:30. After some preliminary business, General Master Workman Sovereign delivered his annual address, which was an exhaustive and elaborate resume of the work of the order from its incip iency. He attributed the decreased membership of the order to the de pression in business circles, prevalent bankruptcy, low wages and forced idleness of laboring classes. He reviewed his action of last January when he secured the services of Judge a C. Cole and filed a bill in the district court of the District of Columbia, setting forth the special grievances of his order and protesting ag-ainst the issue of bonds by the secretary of the United States treasury. He characterized the writ of injunction from the United States circuit court of the Eastern district of Wisconsin as a despotic injunction. Keferring toj the A. R. U. affiliations, he advised a coalition with this as well as all labor organizations. His resume of the Pullman strike termi nated in severe criticism of Major General John M. Schofield and the recommendations of that of ficer for an incrsase of the army, together with the ac ti m of '"Chicago's millionaire aris tocracy, who were permitted to pre sent a stand of colors to the Fifteenth infantry," which was indication of an "uneasy desire to subjugate labor through the military powers of the nation." He urged that the assembly take strong act on ag-iinst an increase of the military force of tiie nation and that they advocate a decrease in the regular army and the abolition of the state militia. 3 PER CENT JIORTU AWES. 1 he Latest rinn of Iteorantzitto;i of the 1 nion lRcilie. Omaha, Neb., Nov. 10. An interest ing feature of the proposed reorgan ization of the Union Pacific devel oped yester lay in connect'on with interviews with local railroad men had by Frederick Coudert and John W. Doane, government receivex-s of that property. Regarding the plan of reorganiza tion of the Union Pacific company, as proposed by the government direc tors, Mr. Coudert stated he was heartily in sympathy and looked to congress to do something at this ses sion that would start the ball rolling to a final settlement of the vexed problems. The scheme of the direc tors, as reflected in their report, is to substitute a three percent blmket mortgage covering the entire debt of the government to run 100 years for the present six per cent mortgage soon to become due. WHAT IT 31 A V DO. The Short Democrattc foneress Will Try to Uo Many Things. Washington, Nov. 16. While pros pects of legislation during the closing session of this congress are not bright, the Democrats have a very ambitious program. Not to mention silver or the pop-gun tariff bills, much important legislation will be at tempted. It is proposed, first of all, to attempt a reorganization of the national bank system, so as to se cure an expansion of the currency on an easier system of security. Next to amend the inter-state commerce law, to pass a free ship bill, and an earnest attempt will be made to pass a bill putting the Niearaguan canal under the control of the United States government, the government to bear the costs of construction. Any new scheme of finance is likelv to meet with strong opposition in the senate, where it is just possible the silver men may have a majority. Niedrinjrhau Will Keaume. St. Lons, Mo., Nov. 16.

Jud; Tuly Says They llnvc 'ot Pro rres4i for u. Hundred Years. Chicago, Nov. 16. Judge Tuley era ated a sensation at tho closing session of i the congress on arbitration by a ipeach i which was loudly applauded. The con gres-a has Leea atu 1 ly leading- citl 1 zeus, Lyman J. Gage presided, and J amoug those present were: John Ileary i Barrows, r.-. Charles 11 ei rutin, C6n I gresstnan Springer. Miss Jane Addams, Ada C Sweet, Prof. E. W. Bemia and many others. Judge Tuiey said in talk ing in favor of arbitration: I "It is either arbitration or it is an archy. It is staring yen in the face. The labor element is aroused; they are study ing labor questions aa men never studied them before in any age of the world. Applause I know thsre are meet ings evrfry week in this large city twenty, thirty, forty or fifty laboringcien discussing these ques tions; and you will bear in mind taa; a few winter aeo we had a series of meet ings, or economic conferences, in which 1 the laborer aud the eapit ilist, the philos opher and the student, all were invited to a public discussion of these question And why were they abandoned? Any man who will honestly confess the truth who attended those conferences will tell you they were abandoned because the laboriugmen, the men who earn their bread by the sweat of their brow, proved themselves the superiors in argument and in debate. App.aose. "'it pass laws in tut legislature in re gard to truck stores. It comes before a court of reord and it is held unconstitu tional. We pass laws reeulating the conduct of mines, and other laws, law after law, regulating the relations be tween labor and capital. One after another is decided unconstitutional, both by the state courts and by the supreme court of the United States. Why? We have constitutional provisions. One is that no law shall be passed impairing the obligation of a contract. And then the court says you cannot take away a man's privilege to contract; you cannot take away his right to work as he pleases, for what wages ha pleases. You go down to one of those miners in Pennsylvania, a man with six or eight children, working for 90 cents a day, never having one day's bread ahead; and you call him a free man, and tell him he may quit and go elsewhere if he doesn't like the wages offered. Is that the freedom of contract? Yes, that is the freedom of contract. It has come down to our courts from time immemorial and been sustained. "Th fact is, the courts have not risen. 'I hey have not progressed. They have not realized the fact that we are living iu an age and uuder a condition very d-iierent from those from which they draw their learning and their authority. (Applause.) A de cision of 100 years ago, when a man who refused to work for the stipulated wages was branded with the letter S, and il he continued in his refusal he was trans ported for life, is not a decision for the present age, and especially in a country where every man is a voter." (Applause and "Amen."') SUIT. IJYKXES A liASCAL. Tkat Is a.Mil i KM! mat of Or. 1'arkhurst's Opinion of Mini. Skw York, Nov. 16.

Another grand jury arrest made today was that of Harry Croff, who was in dicted for running a gambling house on the east side of Kansas avenue between Seventh and Kighth streets upstairs. The indictment against Croft was re turned several days ago, and the deputy sheriff, who had the warrant ia his pocket, saw Croft several times, but he was instructed to wait, as the grand jury wanted to use Croft as a witness before he was arrested The officer with the subpoena for Croft as a grand jury witness found him last night and this forenoon was spent by the indicted gambler in the jury room giving evidence, while he was ignorant of the indictment against himself. The warrant was placed in the hands of )e puty Sheriff Hiekey who has charge of the jury room and when Croft was dis missed as a witness he was placed under arrest. AGAINST SUFFRAGE 31,17 5.

In colloquial Chi nese the distinction is preserved by the difference of tone. In the Chi nese characters, or ideographs, the possibility of confusion is abselutely nil, for Ch ing Yuen and Chih Yuen no more retembie each other than do New York and Minneapolis, or than Bunker hill monument resembles the state house.

Wednesday morning he return ed from his father in-law, Joseph Ross's, farm about four miles northeast of here, and took the wagon, presumably to his father-in-law's place.

THE THRILLING EXPERIENCE OF A PROSPECTOR. He Was Attacked by a Ceotiped, at Grizilj Bear anil a Crow Indian An Escapt That Was Little Short of the Miraculous lie but tr.e Bear's Hide. "I had some pretty close calls In the old days fighting Indians and bears singlt Landed," says Colonel Burrows of Mon tana, "but once I was cornered by griz Ely, acentiped and a Crow Indian, andfet ting out cf that corner I had the closest shave of my life, I guess. I was prospect lng along the foot of the Rockies one sum mer. 'One morning I started to follow p a small ravine that I had discovered the day before, along the banks of which were somt very teant outcropping? of silver. I got so interested in examining epecimens ol rock that I pushed on, quite forgetful ol time and distance, until a feeling of ernpti Eesi warnid me that it was noon. "It was a hot day, and when I had fin lshed my dinner I was sleepy. I lay down in the 6hade of a tree to take a short nap, knowing that I would wake up in less than aft hour, which would give me plenty cf time to get buck to camp before dark. I took off my coat and put It under my head, rolled up the sleeves of my Cdnnel shift and made myself as comfortable as possible. I had been asleep possibly 15 minutes whun a peculiar tickling sensa tion en my rig-ht arm caused me to wake Buddenly. I'ortunately for me I did not epring tip with a start. "Opening my eyes, I looked first at my arm where I had felc the tickling. As I did so buy heart stopped beating lor a min ute, it seefned to me, and I felt a cold sweat starting out of every pore. Hall way up my arm was a full grown centi ped crawling around on the bare Cesh. 4'I could see the venomous insect with out even turning my eyeballs, and I lay perfectly still. How I did it I don't know. It seemed to me that there was a ton ol weight on my chest holding me down, and although it was a scorching hot day I was seen as cold as if I had been lying in an icebox. The ceutiped would crawl to where my shirt sleeve was rolled up, then crawl all around the arm, back to the wrist and then back again. He mu.st have made the circuit 20 times, and the strain on my nerves was telling on mo fast. "Suddenly a new- danger appeared be fore my starinst eyes. I heard a rustling cl leaves, and a moment later a huge brown bear, gaunt and hungry looking, walked out of tho bushes and came straight to ward me. "Then I gave myself up for good, and hnlf closing my eyes I tried to think of a prayer to say. Tho bear walked straight up to me, end beginning at my foot began to smell and push me with his nose. The centiped saw the bear coming and crawl ed around on tho under side of my arm and stopped. Every instant I expected tJ feel tho sharp sting of the inect, and I was trying to nerve myself up tc let tht tear liniih me in short order rather than buffer the torture cf the slower death. "But the bear looked lua over, pushed my arms and legs about and lickea my face. Scill the centiped did not move. The bear stood there for several mlaut?3, it seemed to me, but at last appeared to make up Its mind that I was dead, tmd ha would leave me to the coyotos. Then he turned and lumbord o2 in the same di rection from which he had come. 'But the deadly centiped was still on my arm. and by this time I was so weak as to ba in danger of rolling over In utter collapse. Then a sudden warning of a new daE'er gave my nerves another shock. ''The bear had gone lass than 50 feet away when I hecrd the sharp crack cf a rille on the other side of me, heard tha his of a bullet as it flew over me and saw a bunch of fur tiy frem the side cf the bear. The animal had been hit just bck of the left shoulder, but the bullet did not even knock him down. With a growl of rage, tha big shaggy monstur turned and came toward me with a rush. I was certrtin that tha shot had beea fired, by an Indian, and if there was any faint hope of escape lingaring in my breast before it rapidly vanished. The centiped Ji-d been startled by the shot and was now running down my bare arm. I quickly made up my mind that if my time had come I had rather bo shot by an Indian or torn to pieces by the bear than to be stung to death by the centiped. Wiih a bound I sprang to my feet, and to uy intenaa relief tho centiped dropped from my arm to the ground without sting ing me. But I forgot to grab my gun as I rose, and when I got to my feet the bear was so close I did not have time to stoop and get it. In fact it was only by a quick leap to on cj side that I escaped the clutch of the grizzly as ha rose to his hind feet and made a lunge at me with paws out strcehtd and mouth wide open. 'As 1 leaped aside and faced about I caught sight of a murderous looking Crow Indian, who stood, rifle in hand, not less than c!J yards away. Tha Indian was evi dently not aware of my pre.-ence until I jumped up from the ground, and had hi3 ride raided for a second shot at the bear. He was so startled by my sudden appear ance that ho lowered his rifle, and instead of taking a shot at me ran away as fast as he could go. "But 1 was not yet out of danger by any means. Tho pain of his wound made the bear frantic. Growling furiously, he turned and made another rush at mo. He was now between me and my rifle, and my only weapon was a long hunting knife, which I carried in my blet. Glanc ing back over my shoulder for a second, I discovered another and serious danger. I was within 0 feet cf the bank of the ravine, which was directly behind me. A stumble or slip of the foot would carry me over the brink, which meant a fall of 100 feet, to strike on the rocks below. "As I dodged about to avoid the savage rushes cf the animal I kept getting nearer the brick cf the ravine. Finally I stood on the very edge of it, with the bear facing me 20 feet away. Again he rose on his hind feet and came to me, with a vicious growl. I stood until I could almost feel his hot breath in my face. Then, duck ing to avoid his outstretched fore legs, I sprang quickly to one side. "My plan of escape was a success. Tha momentum of the big brute was such that he could not stop iu time, and he purged headlong over the bank and tum bled to the bottom of the ravine. I heard him strike the rocks 100 feet below with a thud, and then as I realized that I was safo I dropped to the ground as limp as a wet rag. I was as weak as a baby from the eiiec-ts of the strain on my nerve, and it was nearly an hour before I was strong enough to pick up my riSe and start back to camp. 'With my two companions to help me I went up the ravine the next day and se cured the hide of the bear." St. Louis Glebe-Democrat.

SECLItlTIES. Geriuanx Are Afraid to Invest in American Kailway ailucks Auy More. AYashixgton, Nov. 16. Frank II. Ma son, United States consul general at "rauklort, in a special report to the state u part meat, states that American rail Way secarities have fallen into bud odor iu Germany, and he endeavors to point out the reasons therefor aud suggests measures for rehabilitating them iu the huancial world. He savs that in Frankfort, which was the first Kuropean .money markt to ac cept Uaiied States bonds buring the dark days of the war and in which Ameri can investments had been popular, not only are our new securities retused be cause of American origin, but these rail road bouds and stocks had for years been returned to America and their proceeds invested in less remunerative Prussian consols aud other staudtrd securities backed by government credit and super Vision. The consul general says: "The cloud which overshadowed American railway securities in Germany has beeu raised mainly by the revelations of the past two years concerning the management of several leading railway properties. Ger man investors were heavy losers and their loasea served to call the atteutiou of the people and press more sharply thau ever before to the usurpat;ons of power and evasions of responsibility which, it is claimed, have become so numerous. "European bond and shareholders have been informed that the power of the president aud directors in in Hay impor tant railway companies has become prac tically omnipotent and irresponsible. They have sent over protests and proxies to be used at elections for the purpose of wresting the control of corporate prop erties from the hands of oiiicers who were said to be abusing their trusts, and they have seea these and every other eilort toward a change easily and hope lessly defeated. Lhat tiie accounts of an entire railway system may be falsified and its securities sustained "in the market by iictitious statements of earnings and concealment of rebates all of which is believed here are discoveries of comparatively recent date." "The uniform reply of the German financiers, when asked what is requisite to restore Europeau confidence iu Amer ican railway securities, is that such cor porations should be brought under the control of a comprehensive federal law.1' Consul General Mason says that the German railroad license system is not ;,i!plicable iu its eutirety to America, but a .is in conclusion: "It is believed by many whose expe rience aud interests in both countries en title their opinions to respect, that it should be possible to frame and adopt a statute applicable to at least all railway companies of the class now subject to the interstate commerce law, and which ,hall be clear, precise and inexorable noon the following topics: "First The regulation of the election of railway officers, so that such elections 3 tall be free and open, and represent directly and fairly the wishes and inter ests of security holders. "Second Creation of anational bureau of publicity, inspection and control, pro riding for the regular publication at a ated periods of certified reports, show u fully and accurately the earninzs, expenses, acts of directors and all busi iess results which affect the value of corporate property.

CRI3IE HUNS lilOT. The State of Affairs in the Indiau Territory iu.pljr Terrible. Little Rock, Ark., Nov. 16. In the opiuiou of Major C. B. Moore, a promi nent attorney of this city who has just returned from a trip to the Indian ter ritory where Bandit Bill Cook aud his reckless and ravenous followers held sway, the situation iu the territory is in describable. There is practically uo such thing as an enforcement of the law aud the bandits are virtually unmolested in their appalling depredations. Major Moore spent neveral days at Muskogee and Fort Gibson, aud he says the busi ness men and property owners t ierd are panic strickuu at the complete commer cial paralysis resultant from the reign of la wlc.suess. Not half of the crimes committed find space in the newspapers; iu fact the half has not been told of the terrible condition of affairs. Organized gang's go from place to place plundering right and left aud a.ldiug murder to their category of crimes when reiistauce is offered them. Marshal Crump and his men are spar ing no efforts to protect properly aud life, but they seem powerless to check tue sway of the bandits. Major Moore says the situation is growing worse all the time. Crime is congenial to a heavy per ceutage of territory population, hence there is, of course, strong opposi tion from a certain contingent to a change in the present run of things.

Allen, Merchant Policeman, i'ineil for Trying to .Stop it I-'iglit. C. I1. Allen was lined $10 in police court today for tryicg to stop a tiht and thea defending- himself. He was in Walter's restaurant night before last when WTa!t Richards came in and began abusing Fred Durein. Allen undertook to persuade Richards to let go and Ricuards kicked him in the stomach. AlleQ is one of the merchant police, aud had his club along, la retaliation for the kick ho struck at Richards with the clui), but Richards warded otf the blow, and threw a cuspidor at Allen. Allen is a little old man, while Richards is a big young man, and Alien ran. That's the story that was brought out in police court this morning. It was no doubt a terrible thing for Ailen to do and such tlagraut felonies against the peace and dignity of the city of Topeka in general and of the police court in particular must be punished or people would be constantly running over tue police and the court in trying to main tain peace. It was not dltlicult for the judge to see that Mr. Richards had been greatly wronged in not being allowed to choke Mr. Durein and kick Mr. Allen all he wanted to without being interfered with, so he lined Ailen $10. There is a moral in this. The next time a man is seen beating another one because ha is able to, let him do it. It has been decided that he chall not be in terfered with, by the police court of the city of Topeka, in Shawnea county and the state of Kansas. PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL.

The committee recently appointed by the Presbyterian synod at Saiina to con sider the advisability of building a Pres byterian hospital iu Topeka iu connec tion with the Kansas Medical coUege, held a meeting at the Copeland yester day afternoon, and decided, that the hos pital should be built. Doctors Stewart, Minney, Lindsey, E.istman, Mitchell and Sheldon, of the Kansas Medical college, were presaut at the meeting, and notified the committee that the college would donate a part of its ground adjoining the medical college, corner of Twelfth aud Tyler streets, and would bear a part of the expense of erecting- the hospital builiiugs. The hospital committee will meet again in about three weeks. TopeUa is Mimply Overjoyed." W. J. Lloyd returned from Topeka last night. Like all the others who were there Tuesday night, he reports the grandest ratification he ever attended. One of the peculiar features of the affair was the hand whicli the women took. Every lady had a tin horn and ail made as much noise as possible. Out here, we may rejoice over the electiou, but the people of Topeka are simply overjoyed. McPherson Republican. A line l'aia;e. A Tery vain preacher having- de livered atermon in the hearing of the Rev. Robert Hall, pressed him tuatita what he thought of the sermon. Mr. Hall remained feilent for some time, but this uly caused the question to be pressed with greater earnestness. At length Mr. Hall admitted: "There was one very fine passage." "I am rejoiced t hear yu say so. Pray, s'.r, what was it?'' "Why. sir, it was the passage from the pulpit to the vestry." Mr. Gilbert's 1 leniant Sensation. W. S. Gilbert was lunching, not long ago, at a country hotel, when he found himself in company with three cycling clergymen, by whom he was drawn into conversation. When they discovered who he was, one of the party asked Mr. Gilbert "how he felt in such a grave and reverend company." "I feel," said Mr. Gilbert, "lixe a lion ia a den of Daniels." Horner.

It Will Be a Credit to the City and Fur nish the Comforts of Dome to Many Worthy Working Women A CHful and Prosperous Organization. Everybody haa heard and read of tha Young Men's Christian aisociation for lo, these many years, but it may sur prise some readers to learn that there is a Young Woman's Christian association, and that it has done a splendid work, especially in Chicago. It seems to be taken by common consent that there ia more need of that particular kind cf work in Chicago than in any other American city in proportion to the pop ulation. The city is so new, so rapid in its growth and so aggressive, having aiso the most mixed population of any American city, that there is special need of a home and central agency for women, and just now the good ladies in charge are faeling especially elated over their new and commodious building, which is rising at 228 Michigan avenue on the site of the somewhat historio John B. Drake mansion. It was in 1872 that the first Young Woman's Christian association waa formed, but it was not till 1&S6 that it became an international affair. There are now in thi3 country over 300 associ- tfi-l V f 'ink iw iff fir HfV Ifrv CHICAGO'S N'iW T. W. C. A. BU1LDLXG. ations aud 10 fully organized state asso ciations. In Chicago the order has a main borne temporarily at 231 Michigan avenue, another at 5718 Kim bark avo nue, a homo for transients at S67 Jack son boulevard and an employment bu reats at 243 Wabash avuue, all of which are to be concentrated in the now building, -which is also to be a woman's hotel and bearding house. The lot was bought of the Diake tstata in lfcSG for $40,000 and is now worth much more and is SO by 1G1 feet in area. It will all be covered by the new seven story build ing, of which the front will be of rain drop browiiiJtone in the basement and above that fire pressed brick, ornament ed with terra cotta. The entrance will bo through an or nate portal, wiih marble steps. To the right as one cnttrs will be the library and to the left the reception room and parlor. Rack of the entrance hall the gymnasium is to extend the lull length of the, basement, snd the rest of that floor will be taken by the dining room and kitchen. On tho next floor above is the assembly hall, with scats for COO and extending through two stories, and back and abov that will be library, dis pensary, loMging and other rooms. The interior will be finished throughout in hard woods and all the building well lighted and warmed. It is a uurprisj to learn tijat with all this the charge for board and room, light and heat included, will only be from $o50 to $5 pcrw&ek, the dih'erence being only in the location of the room, of which there will be 250. And yet the ladles in charge ex pect the institution to baself supporting after the first year. The building will cot $125,000 and the lurnihing prob ably $SO,000. The work of the association is meant to be altogether preventive. "We do not," Kays Mrs. Landtr Stone, the president, "wait until they go over the precipice and the ambulance come with clanging bell, attracting the attention of the world. Indeed our work is so quiet very little is known of it. In the con stitution adopted 18 years ago it is de clared that: The or-ject of the afsocintion shall b to jr nioto the morsJ, relijriouii, intellectual anil tem poral wt-Lfare f vomtn, tt&peciully women who arc (leendf nt upa their own erwrtioru for support, a part of this work to corittiut ia or ganizing homes and scauring omployruent for clf supporting girls and those fciidvavcrinr to besume such, and furnishing medical aid through a well regulated disptjiaary. The association has agents, who meet all trains coming from a distance and passenger steamers during the season and direct all women traveling alone to safe lodging and boarding houses and give all desired information about con necting trains, suggest economical methods of transferring baggage and in all ways assist those who are confuted on arrival in a strange city. These agents tell many interesting stories of their encounters with a cer tain sort of women who seek their prey at the great railroad stations. In the year 1893 they guided soma 6,000 per sons aright and rescued many young girl who had already been taken in charge by female harpies. Tho cosmopolitan character of the hu man inflow to Chicago appears in the fact that the women thus cared for were from 24 states and territories, from 12 European nations and from Canada and Asia. John Uull Owns Cp. In an interview in an English weekly paper Mr. Ben Davies said, "From the musical point of view I must confess that the American people are considera bly in advance of us," and he added that this wa possibly owing to the Ger man element in the United States.

The cashier of one of the largctt banks in N;ew York had ab sconded with the funds of the institution, and I had followed his tracks. Late at the close of the 14th cf August I reached my destination and immediately repaired to my hotel. Tim first note of the cock awoke me. The town clock struck 4. I resolved to take a look at the city at day break. I was astonished, on reaching the street, to see it full cf people rushing in a cease less tide in one direction. Wondering what the attraction could be, I followed the ever increasing crowd surging down the Rue Grande. At the foot of the street was a large open square, where the crowd formed a perlect jam. From a platform at the opposite side 1 distinguished dark out lines thflt froze the Llcod in my veins. It was the guillotine. It was not long until a bell tolled a doleful death clangor, and the tumbrel with the condemned slowly approached. The executioner addressed himself deftly to his task, and in a lew moments all was over. '"Who was the man, and why was he executed?" I inquired of a police agent at my side, fie locked at me with astonish ment and said, "'Indeed, tir, it was Jacque3 lieynauld. My curiosity was; excited, and before I left Dieppe I had fathered ail the detaila of the life and crimes of the dead man. INo longer than four months before there lived in the line des Amies a huck ster named Morris, who was honestly but frugally supporting himself, his wife and chiid from the profits of his trade. "I should reli.sh some oysters today," said Mn:e. Morris as her husband entered one Sunday. ""I fear it is too late, my dear. It's a quarter past 9 o'clock." "Justine thought that the shop at the corner might be open." Send her, then. The truth is, I am myself as hunyry as a wolf." The servant took a basket to get the oys ters and left the doer partly open to cave her master the trouble of unlocking it when she returned. The shop at which she was to yet the oysttrs was locked, and Justine went down the Rue Grande to procure them elsewhere, if possible. She had been absent three-quarters of an hour. To her surprise, Justine found the house locked, bho tliought the wind had blown the door fahur, and she tried the knob. "They must have retired," thought Jus tine, inuignant that they had locked her out. In her anxiety she related her troubles to several passers by. The police were sent for, and the door was forced. The hall was dark. One of the tjendarmes stumbled over an object. He stooped down, and his hand touched something wet. A light was procured, and a horri ble scene was revealed. Poor .Morris lay in the hall with his throat cut. The whole floor was covered with blood. In the little room lay his wife, with a horrible wound across her throat. The assassin had not even spared the infant in the cradle. The poor little creature had met the same fate as his parents. The house was sacked. Kight days after the crime several men were passing along the Hue Grelluru. I Suddenly a man clad in nothing but his j fchilt appeared on a roof carrying a chiid j in his arms and crying, "Murder, mur der!" A rush was made for the door, but it was found to be locked from within. A few crashing blows sullieed to breuk it, and a man ran up stairs. In the fore hail, at the head of the stairs, a man was found with his throat cut. He was dead. In the chamber a woman was found dangling out of bed with a similar wound, and in tho kitchen lay the servant girl, disposed of in a like manner. It was undoubtedly the work of tho same person that had commit ted the crime in the Rue des Amies. The young man who hail been seen on the roof gave this testimony: ""My namo is Pierre Dulao. I am a watchmaker, l'or two years I have been employed in tho house of tho murdered Manton, whose family consisted of his wife, a child and a servant girl. 1 slept in an attic chamber. INext to mo slept the servant girl, who usually had the child with her. It was about 2 o'clock ia the morning when 1 aw oke, folding very thirs ty. My water pitcher was empty, and I started to get a lresh supply, but before I had time tu descend tue first tiiiit of stairs I saw a man sneaking up the lower Light.

The stranger had nearly Touched the door which led to M. Mini ton's room when the door of tno same suddenly opened, and my employer stepped out. The murderer hurled himseii upon him and pressed his hand upon his mouth to prevent outcry. I noticed that the villain had only three lin gers on his left hand. I ran up stairs ugain and entered the girl's chamber. Marie was not tiiere, but tho chiid was fast asleep. I took it ill my arms and rail up on tho roof." In the faubourg of Dieppe, in a rather obscure house, all aloue with a servant girl, resided a widow named iieaumuu rieo. She was the widow of an army oili eer and distinguished fur great firmness of character. The excitement throughout the city had not been able to disturb her composure, despite the fact that she was comparatively unprotected. On the auth of April, at about 10 o'clock, Mme. lieaumaurlce, who had all day suffered from a painful headache, en tered her boudoir. Siie was very tired and sat down in a large easy chair to rest her self. Opposite her stood her dresaing case, whose curtains extended down to the floor, liack of her, upon a small table, stood the lamp. The iuuy had begun to disrobe her self when she noticed something that made her heart stop Leating. On the floor she descried the shadow of a man's hand. The hand had but three lingers. The murderer was concealed within her dresser. Alter a short deliberation she approached the door and called the serv an t. Marie," eaid she, "do you know where M. Uemurd lives?" '"Very well, my lady." '"I forgot that I shall have to pay 500 francs tomorrow morning. You must go immediately and get the money. To in sure your getting the bank notes from M.

I She handed the tscrvant the note and sent her away. She then sat down and waited. Yes, a full hour the lady sat ia her room, within whose dressing case the murderer wa concealed. The shadow of the hand, apparent now and then, was the only evidence of the presence of the murderer. When finally the gmclarme.; arrived, Jacques Reynauld was taken pria liiiur.

A bachelor is not usually accredited with much" knowledge about tha proper treatment of children; but sometimes they step in where ang-els j that is, the mothers of the children I fail to tread. A well-known man j about town, who is pretty" well on in j years, and not very food of children, I stopped in to see a married sister the other day and found her trying" to amuse her little boy of about 5 years. Not long" after he arrived she steppeel out of the room to attend to some household matter or other, leaving him alone with the child. The latter eyed him dubiously for some minutes. He was a spoiled child if ever there was one, and he had no idea of lnak I in? promiscuous acquaintances. The 1 bachelor tried to make the little one I laug-h, but all he g"ot for his antics was a sour look. Finally, without j warning", the child burst out crying. I Here was a quandary to be sure. He I didn't dare to pick the boy up and i soothe him. His attempts in a verbal j line were dismal failures. What j should he do? Finally a thoug-ht struck him. He looked at the crying" j younp-ster and the crying" young-ster j looked at him througdi his tears. Ha was evidently much pleased with the impression he was making". "Cry louder," said he. The child obeyed. "Louder yet," urged the bachelor. A yell went up tliat would hava done credit to an Indian. "Cry louder still," insisted tha man, and the boy did his best to obey. "Louder!" fairly howled the uncle. "I won't snapped the infant, and h shut up his mouth with a click and was quiet for the rest of the day. HB LIVED A3 GIRL. Extraordinary Experl.act of Youth In the Swiss Alp. An extraordinary story of a young man passing" as a cirl all his life until a month or two ag-o is related from Treschatel, in the Alpine district of Switzerland. He was known by tho name of Laura Besnar, and came of a pood family. Why his friends should liave registered the chill as a female and subsequently kept up the decep tion is a matter of mystery. The young" man is said to have found the companionship of the weaker sex vary pleasant, and would probably have continued to frequent the society of young- women as one of their number had not he fallen in love, but in order to woo and win the lady of his choice he declared his proper sex. The earlier years of his life were i spent in a convent school, on leaving which he studied a cure for stammer ing and subsequently founded a school for that purpose. This was so successful that in a few years hs amassed 40.003 francs and then decide J to study me Jicine. VTith this object he was entered as a student at Givn- I ople school of medicine as a woman, and to all outward appearances was one. I His features were distinctly femi- nine, and nothing- in the shape of a mustache or whiskers were to be ob- served. In every way he comforted i himself as a female and seemed quite at ease in the character he assumed. The only thing- which inig-ht have be- I trayed him, p-rhap, was a slight sus- picion of the masculine in h'n voici. i This, however, was scarcely su iiieient to attract special notice. Painting Arctlo Scenes. Some of the difficulties of pursuing art under disadvantageous circum stances were explained recently by prank W. Stokes, who undertook to make a thorough stu ly of arctic ef fects in connection with the Feary expedition. One of his best pictures, he said, would be a moonlight scene on the everlasting- snows. To paint this he had to keep up a perpetual dance before his easel, making- a few dashes with his brush and then shak ing himself vigorously to save him self from being" frozen. He dec'ared the moonlight was the most gorgeous he had ever seen, being- so brilliant that he could easily distinguish hi colors, even thoug-h they were on tha conventional dark palette. A Novel Umtird Pot. A new kind of mustard pot has been made that insures always having" fresh mustard. It is the sire of an ordinary mustard pot. and consists of j two parts, in tha lower half of which is placed the dry ruuatarJ, while in the neck of the upper part is a small con tainer for the water necessary for I mixing-, tog-ether with a little screw, which, when turned by tho consumer, allows the water to eseapj into the mustard below, tha tws being" a nalg-a-mated by a turn" or two of th 1 criv. j In this way a fresh supply for each 1 meal can be obtained without wastej or trouble, and as the pot can be 1 taken in two in an instant, there is no difQculty about cleaning it. Fraseentad for High Trenton. At Tarnopol in Galicia a secret so ciety was recently discovered, com posed of some seventy hig-h school boys of wThich the object was the sep aration of Galic.'a from the Austrian empire and the establishment of an independent Polish king-dom. The boys met reg-ularly an hour before school, to deliver speeches attacking the emperor and the pope. The g-ov-ernment has actually prosecuted eighteen of them for hiyh treason.

I STATE JOURNAL, FRIDAY EVETHNQ, NOVEMBER 16, 1.894 2 OFFICES NOT NEEDED. Sinecures That Governor Lewelling Hacommenda Abolished. liOSEY THAT 12 SITS IS WASTED. Other Political Xews of Interest in the Mtate ana Locally. Governor Leweliiag has about decided to submit a raeisaga to the legislature just befora he retires from the executive office, taklnir aa a precedent the action of the late ex-Governor John A Martin who eeat a message to the legislature before be gave up his chair to Governor Lyman U. Humphrey. Governor Lewelling has learned some thing since he has bjsn governor and mzuoug other things ho has satisfied him self that thare are a few offices -which, could ba abolished, without clogging tha wheels of government and at the same time take a burden oS the people. Anions the useless places the governor will recommend to be abolished will be the office of adjutant general. The adj utant general and his help draw Ba!arie3 froai the state aggregating $3,000, and the work could just as well be done by a clerk in the governor's otlice. In fact before the office was created to make a place for some pet politician, tiie govurnor's executive clerk was ex-atlicio adj utant general and did ail the work of t le department for the same par ha no v receives. The trouble Governor I.ewellini? and his administration hava had with Labor Commissioner Todd h i caused a careful investigation of the department of labor, and tiie jvtu r thinks all the work could be dono by an extra clerk in the ofiice of the state boarl of agriculture, and at least ?2,)) a year could be saved to the state in salaries. It is also proposed t i abolish the state board of public wor and assig-n the duties of its members X i the members of the state board of charities, who have charge of all the wtate institutions. This would savra :;,U0U a yaar in salaries and an extra v which now goes to an assistant state architect could ba cut off. Tiie fdlice cf state eterinary surgeon, which is now tilled by a Republican, is also eoasidred a useless oliice. as the work ould be done ty a specialist hired when needed, at a great eavintr to the state. This ofOcei' now draws $2,500 a year and puts in very little time for the state. Govermr LeweHirij has a notion that the state board of health with its secre tary, who receives a salary of 2300 a year, could be abolL-died and all the work could be done by one man to be designated state heait 1 commissioner. la addition to thoae there are two elec tion commissioners, one in Topeka, and one in Kansas City, Kansas, who could be dispensed with, aid all their work could easily te done by the city clerks of the respective cities. It is aUo possible that Governor Lew piling will, before h retires from of tice, do as Governor Humphrey did, abolish the ii;9tropolian police commis sioners iu each of th lirst-cities in the state.

Said Mr. Thomas: "The system of voting down there is just outrageous. Gangs of workingmen go to the poils and Jiang arouud all day waiting for the best bid for their v.. tes, uad refuse to cast their ballot until they have been j a.d for it. The votes are Bold in job lots. At Texarkana one ef these gai.gs demanded $150 fur their votes, hut no body seemed to want them that bad. Finally thirteen of them sold the:r votes for .$10, which was divided among them. The judsres of election are fully cogniz ant of these things. Wages are very low and it seemed to me all the blacks and a majority of tiie whites drank whisky." Mr. Thorn ad was suffering slightly from a cold contracted on tue trip, bat was at tending to business as usual. :.I A Y O PENA S0UJ HOUSE. The Associated Cliaritit M'ill Issno Soup Tickets for People to Ciive Tramp. A good many applications for aid are still coming iu at tiie headquarters of the Associated Charities. "Now that colder weather is coming on," said Manager Russ, "we shall re ceive more applications for food and coal. "When the districting is done we ex pect the visitors to receive and thorough ly investigate all applications and give an order on this otrice for the goals that are absolutely needed. We don't intend to give any luxuries. "Our permanent otlice has not yet been decided on. 1 have in view tiie old Cope A: Co. room at 1; IT Kansas avenue, and also a room on West Sixth street, just a little off the avenue. 1 believe the Cope place is the better, because it has a large yard that we might utdize as our stone yard for the workmen. I don't think much of the idea of having tho stone broken at the quarry. It is too tar out, and from headquarters. "There is another thing; we n ay yet have to open a soup house for the trav eling poor and others that are deserving. We will issue soup tickets to people j about town that want to buy them at tif- teen for one dollar. Iheniaseadof giving money to beggars let the solicit ed give a soup ticket and he will know that the beggar is not using his charity to increase his own sins. We v.-i i give for the ticket a quart of good soup and half a loaf of bread. "We do not know just when we shall be able to move our headquarters. Some people seem to have a peculiar idea of the way we intend to do business. A woman came in today and s .i 1 in a peremptory tone. "I want a ton of cosl.' "She was well dressel so I said, 'Do you really need it.' 'I want a ton of coal,' she persisted. 'I don't know whether you are deserv ing or not,' I sai J, "and until I do I can't give you anything.' "There was anger in the woman's face as she turned to the door. 'I see it is go ing to be all one sided this whiter as it was last, she snapped and bounced out. "One don't feel like giving much to people like that." OLDEST AMERICAN EDITOR Hamilton Stuart, Ktlirnr of the "l.alve toa News" is ieal.

HE WILL MISS TOPEKA. Salvation Army Gen. Booth Will Xot Stop in Topeka as Was Intended. Gen. Booth, the commander-in-chief of the Salvation Army, who is now making a tour of this country, will probably not stop in Topeka. This city has lost much of its importance since Major Sully has moved his headquarters to Kansas City, and it is probably owing to this fact that the distinguished leader of tbe Salvation army hosts will not visit Topeka, as it was originally intended tha Topeka would be included in the itinerary of the trip. Gen. Booth is now at Cleveland, O., and he has met with flittering recep tions every where. He will be in Kansas City December 7, and wdll be in Denver December 9, so he would probably not have time to stop here if he wished.

Haya Dr. Michstelis, In tho opinion cf Dr. Michaelis of Ber lin tho greatest enemies to the permanen cy of the ponland cement used in marine structures are tho sulphates contained in sea water. If there is any great quantity of alumina and ferric oxide in the cement, the structure breaks up sooner than other wise. This is accounted for by the fact that the sulphate forms, with the alumi nate iful ferrate of lime, a number of crys talline compounds, such as basic sulphate of lime, alumino sulphate and ferro sul phate of lime. These compounds take up a large quantity of water of crystallization, so that the total volume is much increased; hence the weakness and disintegration of the cement structure. Dr. Michaelis considers that the separa tion of hydrate of magnesia is quite innoc uous, for it is only displaced from its solu tion In the form of a llocculent, slimy hy drate, which, if anything, Is useful in stopping up the pores. His general recom mendation to users of concrete for marine work is to choose a cement rich is silica and as poor as possible in alumina and ferric oxide, and to envelop tha structure with an impermeable mixture composed of one part of cement with 2 to 2.- parts of sand of mixed grain, of which at least one-third should be very fine sand, and to this the requisite amount of ballaot should be added. DR. HOLMES TO A YOUNG MAN. He Had Ko Work l or This Literary As pirant, hut Cave Him Advice. Oliver Wendell Holmes onco wrote as follows to a young and ambitious literary aspirant who applied to him for a position as private secretary: Dear Sir I regret that it is not in my powei to direct you to any place of employment such as you desire. In a city like this the crowding toward all such employments is very great, und there are a few situations to bo- divided among a groat number of applicants. As for myself, I am not (as I am often supposed to be) an edi tor and have no writing to do which I am not competent to do myself with a little occasional aid from tho members of my own family. I regret not to be able to give you encour agement as to employment in Boston, but the truth is there is next to nothing of the kind you mention, most cf our writers being as pool as rats themselves and no more able to keep an amanuensis than they are able to set up a coach and six. I do not even know how to advise you beyono this simple counsel, which I have occasionally given to ycunn aspirants: If you think you have literary talents, write something fur the best paper or magazine you can get into, keep to one signature, and you will be found out by a public which is ready to five the highest price for tliuost every kind of literary ability. I do not "turn from your petition with cold indifference, but it is utterly out of my powet to do more than give you tliese few words ol kindly advice. O. W. Holmes. liurial Among the Sihanakas. Among the Sihanakas there ore no reg ular burying places lor the dead bearing any resemblance to the cemeteries with which Europeans are familiar, and in the majority of cases nothing but a simple se pulchral mound marks the spot where in terment has taken place. In a few soli tary instances I have found rude human figures carved in wood placed upright at the four corners of a tumulus ol objong form, but such as I have seen are in an advanced state of decay, and I have not heard of any of recent date. The looking glass, tho snuffbox, the bomb, knife, spear and walking stick and tho necklace which belonged to the de ceased, and also a bottle of rum, are, as a rule, buried with the corpse. Many will recognizo in this a very ancient custom observed by other nations. In the tombs of Assyria, discovered and opened by Mr. Layard, were found beads, small orna ments apparently belonging toa necklace, vases of green pottery, copper mirrors and copper spoons, bracelets of silver, a pin for the hair, bowls and small alabaster bot tles. Sunday Magazine. The Mule and the Turtle. "To tho traditional antipathies of the animals, gossiped the planter from North Carolina, "must be added the mutual dis likes cf the rnule and tho turtle. Whether it is the uncanny appearance or the subtle, fishlike odor of the turtle I am unable to say. But if he pops up his bead from the water in the same field where a mule is at work there will bo no more plowing corn that day. 'I have known mules which would not go near the broolfor days because a turtle had trailed off under the bushes when they were taken down to drink. And I have seen tliem take the bit between their teeth and break out of a field on a dead run when the .sctut of turtle was in the air. 'There are some who believe that the mules mistake terrapins for muskrats. Nearly every plantation mulo which has worked by the waterside hag been annoyed by putting its hoof through the soil down into tho muskrat's winter home. And his antipathy for the muskrat thus becomes a question of experience if not of instinct." New York Mail and Express. Two Kate. A' London journal relates a rat stor that is worth repeating. It says a gentle man, on coming home from India on a sailing ship, while in the tropics was one day bathing bis hands and arms in a ba sin full of cool water placed on top of a sea chest. Suddenly a large rat jumped on the chest beside him and looked up in his face; then, placing its fore feet on the edge of the basin, drank long and deep. Al though usually "rough on rats," the writer say3 -'ho had not the heart to hurt that one, for to make use of a nautical term his coppers were hot." An ac quaintance of mine, a truthful man, told rue in Melbourne some years ago that one evening, while sitting on his veranda, with bis old torn cat (nearly blind) close beside him, a large rat came from under the veranda, and going straight up to the cat, first with one paw and then the other, soundly smacked his face, then slowly re tired once more beneath the veranda.
