Concerning the threatening aspect of the inauguration of governor in Ala bama, he said "Captain Kolb must take matters into hia own hands, as there is no method whereby the figures in a contested elec tion can be verified. If ha shall be ar rest id to prevent a progressive action on his part, he will then be enable-1 to have the entire matter brought before a state election committee and have the irregu larities inquired into. "But it would not surprise me at all," continued Mr. Howard, if an attempt was made to assassinate Captain Kolb rather than to permit him to take ttie oath of office. 1 was myself told that I would be shot if I was heard to express certain statements which I was known to hold, and after at least one meetintr I left th-i hall with a loaded revolver in my hand ready to use it in self-defense, but fortunately was not tailed upon to do so." Mr. Howard expresses trreat faith in the ultimate triumph of the Populist protection sentiment in the soutli. STOKY OK THE THOII1I.K. History of the Kvt-nt tliat llve J5rjii2dit -Vlioiit tlie Alaliam.1 loulest. 1!ikmin;hm, Ala., Dec. 1.--W. C. Oates, Democrat, has ben duly dec lared by the legislature as the duly elected governor by a maj ority of --7, "(i Captain Kolb. in his address to the people of Alabama, has urged hi fol lowers to gather at Montgomery Satur day in as large numbers as possible. Previous to the issun.ire by Koib cf his manifesto Governor Jones had invired the state troo in to attend the inaugura tion. The troops will be under the gov ernor's orders, and any attempt by the Kolb followers t.) capture th, statehouse would undoubtedly meet w it i resistance from the soldiers. In such an event bloodshed would be the re-u!:. Captain Kolb bases his claims to the governorship on tlie allegation that frauds were committed in tiie last elec tion in the counties comprising the black belt section of the state, v u ch is com posed ot about a doen counties. He claims to have positive proof of fraud, aud asserts that if the legislature would enact a law whereby he could contest be fore that body for the oflice cf governor he would prove his charges to the batis faction of the legislators and be legally seated. The Deuucrats deny this and say that the election was fair. Two years ago, w hen Koib was defeat ed by Governor Jones, Kolb claimed fraud and -wanted the legislature to hear his cont'ist, and he say3 he was prorxised that a contest law would be enacted so he could bring his case up, tut the law makers, the majority of whom were Democrats, adjourr ed without the enact ment of a contest law-. The legif iiture is in session asaia, but it is unlikely that a contest law will be en I. Captain Koib reside a in J-uatgorcery, but spends th j grei.ter part cf his -.ime in Birmingham, as this city ia the head- quarters of the Populist party, and his I bon, Reuben Kolb, Jr., is here as man- ager of the People's Tribune, the state organ of the Koltite party. Itolb's Political Career. Reuben P. Kolb, who eeeks to be gov ernor of Alabama, is a native of Harbour county, Alabama, where he was born in April, IS."!. lie was graduated from the university of North Carolina, and duriug the civil war .figured in the cam paigns of the west. After the war he engaged in agriculture, soon becoming noted for his progressive farming, and was appointed in 2.ns$ state commissioner of agriculture by Gov ernor Seay. In lbST he was elected presi dent of the X.ttioual Farmers' congress, and was unanimously le-elected at its second convention. Iu 1J?SS, while com missioner of agriculture, he was sent through the northwest by the state with a car load of Alabama exhibits, exten sively advertising the state's resources at various fairs. in lMSij he became identi lied with the alliance movement nnd w as the alliance Democratic candidate for the gubernatorial nomination. Two years later Koib was asrain a can didate for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination. Kolb and his delegates, when they saw Jones' renominatiou in evitable, did not go into the convention, but met in a separate hall and organized a party of their own, calling it the Jeffer son ian Democracy. They nominated Kolb and a full state ticket. The regular convention renominated Jones. The Republicans and People's Parry threw their strength to Koib. The election showed a majority of 10.00J for Jones, but it was declared that many frauds were committed. Kolb determined to make the race again this year, and was defeated by Oates, but the changes of fraud are reiterated and proofs offered which seem convincing. Thomas G. Jones, tlie retiring chief executive of Alabama, has served as trov- ernor tour years. He is a lawver bv profession and is a self-made man, hav- mg ueen corn in Georgia. lie did ser vice for the confederacy in the war and was colonel of the Second regiment, Alabama state troops, when elected gov ernor. He made a reputation last sum mer in preserving order during the mine aud railroad strikes here. He believes strictiy in the enforcement of the law and does not hesitate to a e the military power when necessary. Ho takes great pride in the state soldiery, which was dubbed by the strikers last summer as 'Tom Jones' tin holdiers." Governor Jones is a man of strong force of char acter and an iron will. Governor-elect William C. Oates is 59 years old and i native Alabamian. He iias served in Congress for twelve years and now aspires to succeed Senator Ptigh iu the Senate two years hence. Colonel Oates wears an empty sleeve, having lost an arm during the war. lie is a man of determination and w ill not be trirled w ith. (JO III) ON FUl .M) (iL'ILTY.

(.orduii mors than half expecred it. He admitted that he tried to swindle the old man. but hoped to get off on some technicality to be invented by his law yer, J. G. Waters. Mr. Waters said he didn't prop-ose lo vindicate his client or 'give him a chromo for beiug a Chris tian." County Attorney Safford said: "Gordon tried to venco Trenear, and now his law yer is trying the same racket on you gentlemen in the jury box." .Mr. Trenear testified yesterday. His testimony was much like a slot machine, inasmuch as he couldn't be stopped un til he had run his course. The lawyers, court and bailiff were unable to check the How of his nasai bazoo. He said one of Gordon's accomplices looked like Mr. Waters, to the delight of the spectators and the entire court. Mrs. Frazier of Chicago, Gordon's sis ter, was present, and sat with her broth er during the trial. THE A T K U BO 0 K I N G S. Some of tlie Attractions that Mill Visit Toieka llie Coming .Month.

WILL NEVER ADOPT IT. The Baltimore Plan Can Xever A fiord Relief. Populism Will Last as Lon Financial Tvrannv. St. Pai-t., Minn., Dee. 1. United States Senator Hansbrough of North Dakota, was in the city last night en route to Washington. In the course of an inter view, after speaking of the effects of the ilson bill and the necessity for the Re publicans to provide revenue for the country, he said: "The so-called Baltimore plan of finance is not likely to be accepted by this or any other future congress. No financial plan exclusively dictated by bankers' associations is calculated to bring the needed linancial relief to the country. "Xo'.relief can come from any plan that does not titst broaden the basis of the money of linal redemption. "What is needed is bi-metalism. The way to se cure this in my judgment is by an inter national agreement between Germany, i-ranee, Italy aud the United States. j leaving Lugland out of the question al- i u iui iiiii-.i i.uuuii y v ill j agree to bi metallism until forced never to do j to by siieer necessity. j "An agreement between the countries j I have mentioned cluding England, would give a new lea33 of prosperity to i the countries to tue u i ee merit and cause an emigration of people from England, wnieh would bring that gold basis coun- try to her knees. "The Populist, party is the natural out growth of the financial tyranny which naturally accompanies the adoption of the narrow gold staudard. If the great nations of tlie earth are to continut this policy, then we will have more Populism. 'The recent defeat of the Populist party cannot be construed as a defeat for bi 1 metrdiism. it was a defeat simply for i liar paper money, and not a defeat for i silver.

The Department Saved in Sal aries and Expenses. Washisgtox, Dec. 1. The annual report of Secretary Lamont shows a saving- of 500,000 in fealaries and ton tingreDt expenses in tho adrniai., ".ra tion of the war department at Washing-ton, besides economics in the re cruiting service, rents, etc. Expen ditures for the ilscal year were 033,000: appropriations f or the current year are Sj-,42j, 112; estimates for next year are Sj2,313,C21'. On October 1 the array numbered officers, 2,130; enlisted men, 25,77-; of the latter, for various causes, c nly 0,114 were effective. Secretary Lamont earnestly recom mends legislation to establisa tha battalion formation now adopted by the armies of every other civilize 1 nation. To effect that change he recommends a return to tlie lav or ISTu, rixing- at 30, 0o0 the limit o: tli-3 army. By the changes proposed the army will be increased "o per cert in efficiency, Vi- in numbers and only 0 per cent in cost o f maintenance. The actual combative strength will thus become about 2.,000, the mirrber now contemplated by Tiw, but wuich is reduced by detachments and other wise to about 2j,oo0. It is proposed to u.i!d two companies to cauh of ti.e twenty-five infautry n;girnent-i and two batteries to each of the live artil lery regiments. No increase in cav alry is proposed. The cost of tlie increased number of enlisted men would be S1.200.UJ) an nually, but retrenchment has reduced administrative expenses of th- war .department at Washington .V30, 000. and by applying these economies to the beneiit of the army efijeient or ganization and greater strength ca n be attained at an increase j tmly 3700, .000. It is proposed to meeVthe necessary increase in line orlicer by reduef.ons in the stalf and to this end a consoli dation of the quartermasters', pay and subsistence deartoients in one bureau of supply is recommended Of 2,710 men discharged by the ex piration of serv'te, 2.07U re-enlisted. Desertions show a large decrease. The repeal of -he law rt'O'iiringa per centage of the, pay of enlisted men to be retainer1 until honorably dis charged is recommended. Seven regiuents have teen armed with the new magazine riHe. an d by May 1 the infantry will be completely equipped with the new arm. The manufacture of that arm will con tinue to equip the rnilit a. The man ufacture of modern fie hi and sie'e artiliery has been continued. tSeacoast defunso may i. w be pros--ecuted as rapidly aa congress w.ikes appropriations for the purpose, and if these are sufficient the project of the Kudicott board can be carried out in twelve and one-half years. The total cost of finis hio j- the ar mament of our twenty-eitrht chief seaports is estimated to be 520, 0 J' 7 for runs, $3, !01,120 for mortars, l'i. 500.000 for guu carriages, 55, 2!.', 0)0 for mortar carriages; a total, including- contract work, of &5U.277. 2 IS.

Secretary Lamont observes that no statue to General Grant has oeen erected at Washington, and reeom mends that such a statute be erected between the capit .il and the congr -s-tdonal library south of Jreenou rh"s statue of Washington. lie si: s that the president be authorized to appoint a permanent commi ,-,;in, chosen from the best qi;allfied citizens of the country, charged w ith selec tion of sites and designs for all the future statues in ashinrrtr a, in order to secure better ertistie results.

Ilaslneii Jfot Affected by tlie Success of the Moud lssne. New York, Dec 1. R. G-. Dun Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: The complete success of the govern ment loan and tha replenishment of the gold reserve have not perceptibly affected business, nor prevented an advance of foreign exchange near to the exporting point. Wheat is 1 c higher than a week ago and Western receipts still exceed last year's, amounting since July 1 to 103,700,0ixj bushels, against 100, 800,000 bushels last year while exports from ail ports have been about 21,0o0 bush els smaller. The smaller quantity received last year paid more debts by about SS,U00,000 than the larger quan tity this year and wheat selling for the first time below CO cents just af ter a harvest may naturally be held back for better returns. Corn had ad vanced a fraction, receipts being larger than a year ago and on the whole the outcome for farmers has not so improved as to promise larger buying by the West and South. The great industries fairly main tain the production previously re ported, but cannot be expected to in crease at this season. Failures this week have been in the United States 2s9 against 271 last year. Uanlc tleariura. New York, Dec. 1.

WiEHfNSTOS, Dea 1. Speaker Crisp does not believe that the coming short session of congress will be pro ductive of much legislation. It is very important, he says, that there fdrould be some legislation on finances. "I am not prepared to state j what, if anything, may be done at this session, but it must be apfarent to every one that the present situa tion should not be permitted to re main long. Whatever suggestions the administration has to make will be a waited with great interest. Whether or not Mr. Carlisle will present a proposition which will meet with j general approval, no one can say until the message comos in. A financial system which puts it in the power of j any one to deplete tlie treasury of gold and to compel tf-o government to increase its inlcrc-t-b .iruig obli- j gations by the i-ne ,f bonds is vicious and sho-i be corrected as I speedily as possible." j Tlie speaker does not think there will be any tariff legislation during this session except to correct the alcohol schedule of tlie present law. Further legislation, lie says, rests with the senate. 1 "It seems to me that there will probably be an effort to do something with the Nicaragua canal. I am not I familiar with all the details of the till reported to the committee, but j that or some other measure dealing with this subject is very apt to be j acted upon. Then there are the I bankruptcy bill and the anti-options I bill which the senate should dispose I of before the close of the session. A j number of things may be attempted, j but there is no program arranged and 1 everything depends upon what the general feeling is when we all get together." OUIl BEEF IN GERMANY. Special Agent Mattes Does Not Sea m ISriglit Outlook In That onotrj. Washington, Dec. 1. Secretary Morton is in receipt of a communica tion frum Mr. John Mattes, Jr., special agent of the department of agricul ture in Germany, referring ito the possibilities of extending the mar kets in that country for American meats. Mr. Mattes writes under date of November 15 as follows: T have visited ma ny of the principal German cities and paid attention to the sale of imported meats, but in my opinion Germany will never become a large consumer of imported meats. It is true, the consumption of Amer ican salted bacon and other meat products in cans may increase in abnormal years, but under normal conditions it may be said the poorer classes cannot allow themselves the luxury, while the more fortunate are as a rule unreasonably prejudiced against foreign meats. In many German cities fresh meat from Atis- tralia is offered for sale, and dealers claim it gives satisfaction, tlie quality beinr first class. "Tbete is a great deal of dissatis faction expressed by the American press because Germany has prohibited the importation of cattle from the United States. Whether this has "been done as an act of retaliation or for sanitary reasons is probably hard to ascertain, but 1 think it is better by far and it will affect the meat producers of the United States no more to do openly and pub liclv that which has been practically achieved by all kinds of obnoxious and restrictive regulations in the dif ferent cities, and by false reports cir eulated through the press in order to create prejudice against foreign meat products. 1 think the loss sustained bv the United States is only nominal, evtrn if the new regulation shoulJ stand."

London, Dec. 1. The following ia another chapter in the story of the -A rnieniaa atrocities which the Associated Press is ible to furnish exclusively to its newspapers: Dr. 14. Thoumaian, who was one of the Armenia physicians at Herrick college, -Marsoyan, Asia Minor, and who was sen tenced to death and forced to undergo terribis, disgusting tortures, being finally released through the intervention of Greut Britain, in July, IS: 3, furnished the Associated Press today with the Litest det iils of the Turkish outrages. He writes: "The chief of police of Mc sh which is the headquarters of tha Sanoun district, went with a number of geiis d'armes to the village of Tchurig acd nailed the head man and some others hSiiti downward to posts, beat them and dreuched them alternately wilh hoi and cold water, lie theu attempted to dis honor the wife of oue of his victims but she- killed him with a knife, whereupon tlie geusd'armes made a general attack oj the peasants. "A stubborn struggle resulted iu which many of the peasants were wounded and thirty of them taken to prison. The whole village is charged with treason. '1 he Armenian villageo on the plains of Moosh aud Bitiis have been tired and their streets made to run with blood. The villages of Kozloo and Sheik -Aghoob have been sacked by kurds and two young girls made captives. "At another village a miller was buried alive. At Hanzasheik three Armenians were killed. This is only a daily tale cf the horrors in these villages. If tnese details come from villages on the open plain what must the truth be iu distant places in the mouutaius. In September 112 Kurds appeared in the village of Baghezsg, plundered it. The next day they raided the village of Faroagh. Iu Deghveran two youths were opeidy butchered before the eyes of their help less relatives. "I could give pages of such horrors. None of these wrongs have been re dressed nor will they be so long as B;)hri, himself a Kurd, remains governor-g ene ral of Van. He is the greatest enea.y of the Armenian race. When the porte tried to hinder the Armenians from, emi grating to Russia and Persia this fero cious lanati.-: explained that the x;rte could get rid of the Christians and it the same time get their laud. "Recently he made a tour of one of the districts and confiscated all tho pro perty of absent Armenians, including those who had gone away on business. Those who returned were thrown into prison. "Unless the powers act promptly there will be a record of successive hideous outrajres." CHINA'S OFFER ACCEPTED. Japan Is Suitl to ilix-e Agreed to tlie I'roflr of Feace. Washington, Dec. 1.

S. Gov't Report 1 J f K i "I if K PRETTY CHINA CLOSET. How to Utilize the C orner of lioom to I i p y I tii Ware. As china lias now developed into an i art the china closet has become a part of the furnishing of the dining-room, j At each corner in well-appointed houses i these quaint cupboards have a. woudcr- fill, picturesque effect, and add much to the decorations of this room. Of wood, the curly birch or ash with brass furnishings are considered by artistic people to be the best. In one house where some artists live the lower shelves of these cupboards, which are closed by a wooden dxr, have a quaint motto in brass, which adds to their clever ornamentation. And the glass part of these good, useful and delight ful decorative bitsextends almost to the broad frieze of the wall paper. Of china, the Copenhagen ware is the most expensive. It is a wonderful blue, which is of a slate-color effect. The brown Doulton pitcher, with its queer lettering, its designs of odd figures and its flowery wreaths in tones of creams, are great for the pretty china closet. The chocolate pot, which is of every design and shape, can be purchased for from five dollars to the low price of one dollar and fifty cents, and yet every one is a model of the chinamak er's skill. As a good background for this decorative a ffair two or three good fish or dessert plates will show oil" ad mirably well if placed securely by a fair-sized tack against tho back of the shelf. In these dainty closets the cracker jar and cheese plate should be always on hand. At a supper given in an artistic dining-room not long ago the china closet was a symphony in blue-;. The nankeen china Vicing the scheme, every piece from the glass front presented to the eye a series of Chinese pictures, with their pagoda effects and peculiar forms so distinct with these people. If the china closet is a low one, on its top there should be a stunning vase, either in Mexican or South American pottery, or a fine piece of Japanese rockwood will do excellent duty. These colors of terra cotta or browns are ad- lis A CORNER CHINA CI.OSKT. mirably suited for a high place, and are in accord with all the china within the shelves. Many of these closets have silk cur tains fastened by ends to a brass rod. Of the new silks, the variety is endless. There are delicate greens of a cash mere pattern which, for this purpose, is a poem in silk. Then there are lace ef fects: one stripe of it in apple green, with an alternative stripe in lace, the crinkled, variegated material being the most gorgeous. But any simple drapery v. ill do if the curtain design is wanted. To secure a Cue decorative bit all tones in china for a closet should be complementary use pink very sparing ly, red but seldom. Delicate tints in which gilt lias a good share is the proper caper for that pretty china closet, Cut glass always is a fine scheme in small piieces. which, if rightly placed, will add every time to this cup board and enhance its brilliancy.

Even in tho present ae of enlighten ment and progress there are always pcoplo who are not as fully informed as they de sire to be. An American who had spent much time among the Indians of this country found himself during a visit to England seated at table next a genial and talkative wom an who seemed thirsting to hear all his thrilling experiences. "And now about wigwams," sho said anxiously at one point in the narrative with which he was endeavoring to enter tain her. '-Are they so very venomous, or have I read exaggerated reports?"' "I have never known," the traveler says, "what she thought she was talking about, or what in my confusion I said In reply." Youth's Companion. 8 i 7 i 1 .-"A i i'.j, i i 1 I ill REGARDING UMBRELLA; The favorite Shaprn in Handle A re I.onjr wild Narrow. Never was there a feminine heart that didn't delight in timbrel I as. and surely the designers know it. f. u- tin y rake every artistic instinct in th-.'ir souls to devise and satisfy this longing. Handles of gold aud silver tire chil dren of a day that is done. They were cheaply imitated, and smart ui.i ii p-.it their real ones aside iu di-gust and took to those of wood. This set tlie pace to those who were not mixlish folk, and ftishion whirl. I from the mineral to the vegetable kingdom. And now have we umbrellas of fine-1 silk with handles of wood, upon whi, h the artists place many designs. The favorite shaies in handles are long and narrow. One cxld variety of newest build is of gnarled imported wood, without a semblance of polish, ending at the top iu a grotesque or picturesquo head made of bisque. One is of a little Dutch boy, with a water lily inverted over his head. Another ends in a cross- i ,t BOMB SMART rMIir.EI.t.AS. tomatoes, with the four green lcr.vci at the top. Those of rough wood with large c!:c r ries sprinkled over the handle arc -i,.l, but are not a bit smart in tone. The preferable ones are carved in long slabs that are tipped with.-.ilver or twisted iu a circle at the end tha;. the owner may slip her hand in to hold it better. A style that fits the woiii::ti in the rough tailor gown ia built similarly to a man's cane, having a broad claw n! wood or burnt ivory tipped with silver placed at right angles to the handlj proper. Burnt ivory is very fashionable still, especially if mounted with narrow fili gree silver bands, and some devices show an elf's face carved in to tlie ivory, surmounted by a cap of nilver. Very dressy umbrellas have handles of plain mother of pearl, fashioned column like: others have a large amethyst or emerald laid into the metal at the end. Hut women who dress modish don't go in for any of these styles as much as they do for the rough or scented wood, twisted and turned and capped charily with silver. A word as to tlie care of your um brella. Never put it ferrule down ward when wet. If you can't open it and allow it to dry at its best, which is tlie correct method, then place it han dle downward, so there is no chance for the drippings to remain in the tip and rot the silk. Again, never go out, with your umbrella unrolled when not in use. 1 1 is a world of saving if tho cover is always kept on it, to say noth ing of the smarter a-ppearanco it makes. Jocelyu Davis, in Chicago Record. j Woman' .HoNt Attractive A(je. The most attractive age of a woman'3 life is the period when shu is still young enough to bo pretty and old enough to be sympathetic, writes Oe-' tave Thanet in Ladies' Home Jour nal. For as grace is a woman's great est beauty so sympathy is her greatest charm. A graceful and sympathetic; woman is bound to be attractive to tho end of her days. If she adds a ta.ste iu dress and some hcn.se to her equip ment for pleasing and does not grow deaf I see no reason why slit- should not, be fascinating in her old age. Since the question, however, concerns itself only with the most attractive age of woman I must give the answer in my first sentence. What that age as measured by years may be ought to vary with the individual. w,-- j

Schwab Finally Farors Few Lecl Rf fctrictious. but Lucy Parsons Think thn FJ a man TtAca U'oold Flourish Cc.der Chaos Like a Green Bay Tree. (Special Correspondence. J Chicago, Nov. 0. Fiom the ur. ru ber of persons that turned out to tha demonstration at Waldheim cemettty the other day on the anniversary of the execution cf the anarchists, it is evident that there are still many here who re vere the memory of August Spies ami his fellows as martyrs ia the cause of human freedom and are neither asham ed nor afraid to own their views. Thoe present at the cemetery numbered somtf hundreds and certainly stood for a stil! larger number. Besides the class of supporters thus represented thera is un doubtedly a further and larger number who are with them in sentiment, but are not proclaiming is from the house- 1 of -4. jf'J MRS. FA1SSONS AT WOIiK. top-?, and in addition to both these clnss es thera ere those who, like Oscar W. Neebe, himself returned from Juliet, where ho scved as an anarchist con vict, would jiot attend the Waldheim cemetery memorial services because cf their dirfike for Herr Most, who was the chief tpe?ker. Altogether there must to thousands in Chicago -who believe that tho use of the fc.tlloTvs iu was unwarranted by the f.yjt3. Whether their view of the matter b correct or not it is not my purpose to consider. Tho fact re niaius that they are here and are nu merous enirugh to form an element that ought never to be left out of the calcu lations of whoever is attempting to "size up" this big city and its people. It should not ba understood that they are all at thi-.J time advocates of violent revolution. J i is probable, on the other hand, that tl-se are comparatively few in numbers. But they exist hero as well as the more conservative ones, and among them tticra is quite a sprinkling of women and also a percenta.ae of per sons who aro not now members of any labor organization. Most of t ho sympa thizers, however, both moderate and radical, are numbers of aomo cf the many unions and assemblies that aro perhaps more numerous and powerful hero than in any other American city. What lias Fet i,me of the OroupH. It will be remembered that those who held advanced vi ws in 1SS5-0 wJere di vided up into groups, all but one of which were composed of persons of for eign birth. Tiute groups have disap peared as fcuch, S3 far as the world knows, and very lilrely that is tho real state of adairs. Cei'-tainly it is so claim ed by the survivir-j; members now liv ing hero. Of the American group, Sum Fielden and Oscar W. Kcebe, both of whom were imprisoned, but afterward released, and Mrs. Ames and Mr. and Mrs. William II. IloJmes remain. It was Mrs. Ames, it will be remem bered, who escorted I arsons to the ofli cers of the law when ?te decided to give himself up. Mrs. Aeics believes now, as she did then, that in surrendering himself Parsons showod tho true spirit of tho martyr, for, she says, he was in a place where he might have remained with comfort to himself and without any fear of detection far an indefinite period. Both Mrs. Holmes and Mrs. Ames are now active members of tho Xt'.f Century club, an or, ranization that was formed some time aio for the pur pose of discussing all sorts of economic questions and formulating remedies for the evils of the day. "But," Mrs. Holmes srvd yest :rday, "although there has been lunch discus sion, and helpful discussion, too, no plans have yet been formulated." The membership of the Is'i'W Century club, however, is riot limited to those of radical mind. Any 0110 is privileged to join, and there are, in fact, upon the rolls the names of socialists, individual ists, single taxers, Republicans, Demo crats and simple inquirers. Ta e organi zation has no president, the nhief offi cial being the secretary. Mr. Holmes held tnis place until he was oi lied to go west tor his health, and t school principal, Professor Miller, has now been chosen for the office. Sor iewhat similar organizations under the name of debating socitties have been formed by the survivors of the German proof ,s, Sthwab, Neebe and FieUien. Michael Schwab was flot of the Amer ican group, nor was he, so some of hi3 friends claim, personally inclined to ultra advanced ideas. lie was, howovvr, employed as a writer on The Arboh.er Zeirur.g, then the organ of the avoKwl anarchists, and he wrote in aecordatioe with the general policy of the paper. After he was released from prison b.e went back on the staff of the paper aiM is still a member. I called ttpoa him ait the publication ofSce and found him busily j reparing copy for the morn in p.. issue. He looks very much as he di i when the well known portraits of ltsSti were made, save that he is a trifle thin ner perhaps, and Lis hair is not brushed v V r i a 1 up a la pompadour as lie used to wear it iu those days. Schwab is now a socialist. He says he is quite unable to comprehend Ifbvr, ender a system of no government, the affairs of a community, like mail carry ing, sewer building, etc., could be ac complished, and that he never has been able to take in the doctrines of the an archists in that regard. He has no doubt whatever about the ultimate tri umph of the ultra strong government idea in the formation of a socialistic state of society. Oscar W. Neebe, like Schwab, is a socialist. I found Neebe at his place of business on West Randolph street. He believes in political action on the part of the workingman and thinks that persistent effort in this direction will eventually work great results. I asked him about Mrs. Parsons, but he said he knew nothing of her movements or her present beliefs. "I have seen Lucy Parsons, he said, "but once since I came back. I don't want to see her either. i In this a great many of those who j were ideutifiedin the movement of 1SS6 concur. iney do not like to taikot her at all, but it is understood that there is p-eneral dissatisfaction with her personal CiJllduCTf. Shortly after Fielden came out he got employment as a teamster, but it was neither regular nor well paid, and there were times when he was cut of work al together, for considerable periods. He has now decided to have C'hicfigo and become a farmer, a calling for which he is s:id to be eminently fitted, as ho was a farmer when a young man. lie is at prest et looking for a place that suits him, iiiid w hen he finds such a one ho proposes to buy it and live on it to the end of his days. In makintr this deci sion ixi has been largely influenced by his regard for his family. He has sous, and he believes a big town like this is not a g )od place for the rearing of boys. Lucy rarsoDD, Lucy Pardons lives at Avondale, once an independent villase, but swallowed up within the last year or two by the omnivorous corporation of Chicago. She has one cf the prettiest cottages in that part of tho city. The house was built by herself according to her own ideas, and tiit re siie lives with her sou and a boarder sor.io five or sis miles from the heart of the town. Mrs. Pars t us declared when I saw her that sho wi.4s not conversant with the whereabouts of many members of tho old grc ups. She has not changed her views greatly since 1SSG. "L am an individualist," ebe de clared, "becaitse I think an- anarchistic state of society the best imaginable con dition under which mankind could live. That is all therw is of it." Lucy Parsons? appears to be prosper ous. Sho is undeniably a woman of brains and of jt;ood business capacity. Sho supports hetrself by peddling tea, coffee, soap, etc., and has a fairly good trade, principally among families whose members agree with h?r doctrines. Her son, who is said to be the image of his father, is a student in the Chicago high school, and she says that one of her chief ambitions now is to see that he is edu cated properly so that he can tako care of himself under a capitalistic system of society. Mrs. Parsons is very fond of this boy and devotes all tho t; je she can spare from her work to him. At the time I called tiXJOti her she was very busy working on some garment of his, and she did not feel inclined to stop in order te talk to a newspaper man. M. I. DEXTEIt. AMATEUR "MAKEUP." These Few Hints JVfay Mean Successful Work. Special Correspondence. New York, Nov. 29. It is true that "under the faces are hearts, and the art of acting necessitates tho face shall bo "made up" as an index to the vices and virtues of the character. To the amateur a few hints may mean success ful work. Grease paint to the initiated general ly means a grease spot on the stage pic ture. It is too slippery an article for the inexpei ienced to trifle with. An effect ive "makeup" is procured by first ap plying an even coat of cold cream, then powder and rouge 011 top of that. The lips are touched with a carmine pencil, with rouge for tho ears; tho eyebrows and the eyes with cosmetics. For a straight or youthful "makeup, after the cold cream is applied to every part of the face, dust lightly and evenly with pearl powder. With a hare's foot apply the rouge on cheeks, lobes of the ears an 1 chin. This gives a rounded look to the face. If the mouth is not the approved "Cupid's bow," take tho car mine pencil and heavily accentuate the curves of the upper lip. The eyes should be faintly penciled on the lids and may bo elongated by a line beyond thein. The eyelashes are lengthened by rapidly winking them over a stiff brush thickly covered with black cosmetic, which should be heated before applying. Fol low the line of nature and accentuate the eyebrows with a crayon pencil. Col or placed high upon the cheeks gives youth to the face, and naturally nearer the chiu has an opposite effect, besides lengthening the face. Hollows in the cheek are secured by an artistic applica tion of gray powder. A camel's hair brush and india ink will a Id years as quick as one can count tho wrinkles. Accentuated lines doue in ink around the mouth and eyes add ago. Gray pow der around the eyes gives a sunken ap pearauce, although one famous beauty on the stage, by careful manipulation, adds to her charms by a judicious touch of the gray on the eyelids. The ears should never be forgotten, as a touch of rouge ou the lobes enhances their ap pearance. Cold cream and powder are used on the neck. The arms and bauds are covered with perle de blanrr, which does not rub off. Kate Chase.

The board was there yesterday. The crossing has been constructed on the most approved modern plan, and is designed to save the trouble of coming to a full stop and whistling at the crossing as required by law. A watch tower is constructed at the junction of the tracks and fifty yards each way on Lioth tracks is a large signal post, and a mile further up the tracks another post. These are operated by wires under the control of the watchman in the tower. When the track is clear the incoming train knows it a mile away. When there is danger the fact is made known at the same dis tance. The crossing and signal plant were approved. thousand and amounts to something over ?.OO0 a year.

About two months ago two very smooth gentlemen, giving their names as J. II. Graham and II. O. Walker, visited his otlieeand explained taatthey we re going to issue a book descriptive of ail tha railroads in the west. They would priut it at Chicago. they said, where they lived, aad would bo glad to accept a little mileage on account. They w;ra so very smouth and dressed so very well, that Mr. Simp son, who has become acquainted wi.h the pass shark through long experience liecame a little susj icious. Their cre dentials were ao excellent and apparently so genuine however, that be allowed himself to be taken in for a few milts to each. boon they begin to wire him over the line that they wanted mileage and want ed it quick, and Mr. Simpson began a system of forget'ing to send it to theca. The other day Mr. Simps n shook hands with himself as he read an account of their arrest ia St Louis for ticket scalping. INSPECTED THE SIGNALS. Tlie Itailroxl C oim?ioiir Examined tho New Croiin.; at Feahotiy. General Superinten lent A. J. Ilitt of the liock Island has been in Peabody several days this week, where a jciut crossing with an Interlocking plant has been constructed by the Rock Islacd'and the eanta Pe. The laws of the mate are Item of Interest Gleaned From men and Others. W. F. Evans, assistant to M. A. Low, in tha liock Island law department, is sick in tied. There was an astonishing decrease in traffic for November compared with the same month last year. Kain on the Rock Island was reported yesterday only on the eastern division, or from. Hnrinjfton east to the Missouri river. The weather was cloudy on the whole system. Assistant General Freight Agent G. A. Kimball spent Thanksgiving with rela tives at his old home in Lexington, Ken tucky. A. It Lingafelt, superintendent of telegraph, returned last night from a week's business trip to Denver. Joseph Biggs, traveling passenger agent of tho Great Northern railway, was in the city today. T. J. Anderson has written a letter to city passenger agent H. O. Garvey re questing him to prevent loafers from standing in the big window at Sixth street and Kansas avenue and flirting with the ladies as they pass by. There is some p peculation regarding who will succeed Harry Overholt as as sistant city ticket agent of the Itock Island when he assumes the position of assistant state treasurer. The two most likely candidates are Lamont Gregir, who is rext in line of promotion, and Tom King, Warren Cowles' assistant at St. Joe and Atchison, who preceded him. Mr. (iregtr may settle the contest by ac cepting change of the Lnion Avenue ticket etlice of the Rock Island at Kan gas City. A Few Items of Interest Found About the Santa Fe Freight Depots. Local freight business is pretty good on the Santa Fe just now, and the clerks at the freight house are beginning to find out how it feeia to work overtime, and hard at that. Chief Clerk Webb of the Santa Fe su pertendeat's office has returned from his trip to Mexico and says he enjoyed it. Herbert Fairchild of the Santa Fe su perintendent's office has been spending Thanksgiving at Overbrook. Will Crilly, who has been a clerk in the Santa Fe freight depot for a long time, will leave this week for P.aton, where he becomes chief clerk to the aa-ent. Famous everywhere and flawless al ways' is the reputation of Dr. Price's Baking Powder. It rules supreme. STILL FLO CRUSHING. The Y. M. C. A. Has 330 Members and Is Still Growiiijj. The local Santa Fe Y. M. C. A. is still flourishing and ha3 now over 350 mem bers, and the number is still slowly in creasing. The noon bibie meetings are being kept up and the Sunday afternoon gospel meetings are also a reality. The one tomorrow afcernoon t 4 o'clock will be addressed by Rev. T. C. Alderson. Ou Monday night the new choir, of which Louis Franz is director, will meet for rehearsal. During the past month twenty different sick members of the 1. M. C. A. have been visited by Sec retary Jones. AN FXHIIilTlON Alt. All the Pinkerton"s in the land could not detect a daw ia Dr. Price's Baking Powder. NO MOKE MEN. Mr. Frey SiV3 Eilit Hundred Men Can Lo tlie AVoi-k at t he Ii ips. There are now about eight hundred m"n at work in the Santa b'e shops, and Mr. Prey-, who probably knows, says th 're will not be any more to speak of adl id to the force this winter. Tae force is quite sullicient to do all the work the run i needs now. he says. In good times the force of the shops is over two thousand men, but it lias t ecu so long since the force reaehei that that the time is difficult to remember. There is plenty of work to keep the eifiit hua ln.-i bu.-y for their nine hours a dy six days iu tae week and tne eight hun dred are very well satisfied with that lor the pr 'sent. Tae -"-Sixth street paint shop still re mains closed and there are not more thin fifteen at work in the main shot). Only chair car work has been allowed to en ter the shop since the strike, but it is un derstood from very good authority that coach work will L.etrin soon and tho force will be increased to thirty. SHORT OF IIAIN. OdlHhiima Want-s to Send an Eatliibitiois Car of Froducts Ent. Walfoid Wilson, editor of the Oklaho ma Farmer of Oklahoma City, will be in Topeka soon to ask the .-lama Pe to help him prepare a car of Oklahoma products to ship east for exhibition. He is inter ested in booming Oklahoma as every cit izen of Oklahoma is and he wants the Santa Fe to help him do it. He will ask the road to furnish the car at a bargain as it too is interested iattie development of the new country, he thinks. The car will travel east and north. TO HE UESTORHIJ. After December 11th the $9.o( Hate to Chicago Will He Annulled. It seams now that the cut passenger rato to Chicago from Missouri river points of $'J.59 for the round trip will be disposed of early in December and the ratH restored to "tariff, which is $.1 more. It has Lieen a very convenient rate as it has been used all over the west as a cut rate from ali points. As soon as the legal nuLticaiion can ba made the rate will be restored to .YPg.oO. This means about December llth. AT j rUAtllMi F rost's ATTENTION. Exhibit at :ay Wheat, Ffts-ture and Want Kain. Santa Fe Reports Stock Although Topeka is damp enough just at present and the weather is about the same all over the state from fog and mist, it is a fact that the state needs rain and lots of it. At the San'a Fe general offices the news comes that the farmers want rain and wouldn't object to at least two weeks of it. Winter wheat is in and struggling for help to start itself. Pasture, too, needs a little refreshing. Prom many parts of the state the re port comes that farmers and stockmen are hauling water for their live stock, bo it seems that wheat and pasture are not alone in their suffering. Orain and Fruit New York City. The Santa Fe's exhibit of fruit and gram from Kansas, Oklahoma, New -Me tie and Colorado ac the Food anil In dustrial exposition at New York city is attracting a good deal of attention and will probably be left there for a big Cuthoiio fair that will be held in the sarr. e building next week. This is Mr. Frou's latest particular pride. The $'i Switching; Charge. The Santa Fe is the only western road so far that has taken oil the f switch ing charge on cattle shipped into the Chicago yards. This is the charge that Judge Grosscup declared illegal. The Santa Fe. it is understood, has not only taken off the charge on live stock, but on all other freight as well. P trity, strength, whoiesomeness, these are the properties which gained for Dr. Price's Baking Powder the highest award at the World's Columbian Fair and hisrhest honors and trold medal at the California Midwinter Pair. DON'T Hl'KN Til E LEAVES I On the A BIG I'AVKOLL The Kook Island Fays ftiSO.OOO Every Mouth Through tlie Topeka Office. The practice of the Rock Island of paying all the employes west of the Mis souri river through the pay car which made monthly tours of the line, has been discontinued in the interests of economy. It was found that the pay car system, while desirable in many respects, could be dispensed with by sending all the pay checks to the Rock Island agent at each town for distribution. The pay car still runs once a month between Topeka and Horton. lht monthly payment, which is made through Paymaster William Ilodson, of lopeka, amounts to about H30,00-d, of which about $12, J00 is in the general offices here. AKOCNIJ THE SHOTS. Gossip Personal and Otherwise fleard Anions tlie Santa Fe Shopmen. The car shops are busy just now re pairing coal cirs for the winter. There are several big California fruit cars ia the Santa Fe car shop3 just now for repairs. Santa Fe engine No. 118 has just now gone out of tha shops rebuilt. She has gone to Ottawa. Grant Allen of the Santa Fe tin shop, has gone to La Junta, where he has work in the shops. Joe Bovey. of the Santa Fe shops, is going to California to live, where he has work. Engineer Jame3 Thomas and Conduc tor Ii. 11. Stockton, both of tha Santa Pe, have gone to Denver for a ten days' visit. Special car Xa 213 is in the Santa Fe paint shops for repairs and repainting. Pavements or the Street Commis sion May Have You Arrested. The street commissioner bits been hav ing a great deal of trouble with people who persist in burning leaves or rubbish on the asphalt and cedar block pave ment. A:a ordinance forbidding the burning of leaves on the two kinds of pavements has long been among the city laws but it has been vety loosely enforceiL There is no law against the burning of leaves or trash on the brick or stone pavements but the street commissioner says he would rather haul the leaves oil if they are raked into the gutters with the at tendant risk of having a disastrous tire started. The smoke from burning leaves and trash is a great nuisance in a town as large as l'oj eka, ana it is quite likely an ordinance will soon be adopted pro hibiting it altogether. t STHEET FORCE REDUCED. Pay Itoll for Last Month Only The BIG Adams CONTRACT AWARDED. liros., of Topeka. to Print AH the Santa Fe Envelopes. The Santa Fe stationery department has just closed a contract with Adams liros., the Topeka jot printers, to print ail the envelopes used on the Santa Fe system during the coming year. The Santa Fe furnishes ah the ma terial and the printers simply do the press work, which keeps one job pres t-usy the year round, as about ooO.UUO en velopes are used every monta Adams Bros, bid one cent a thousand less than the next lowest bidder, Geo. W. Craue. The contract was let for 27 cent a for Last 1 ,'iOO. The city street force has been greatly reduced and Street Commissioner Naylor says the pay roll for the past month will only be 1,200, which is about $700 less than usual. 1 wo foremen, D. McNair and P. Smith with their frangs have been laid off. They were excavating for siaewalks and as the work under the Ritchie contract has been completed they have nothing more to do. There were 11 men with live teams discharged. Now there is but one gang working, in charge of Foreman George Goddard, made up of nine men and four teams. In addition to this force there are two men building stone crossings, two re pairing sidewalks and two flushing sewers. BEAUTY. 31 me. And How to let It, the Subject of Yale's Lecture. Mme.

They liave gone to him physical and moral wrecks, and in a few uhort weeks have returned in vigorous health arid per fectly cured, with not the slightest pro clivity or the least craving for their former vicious indulgences. Most of them remain permanently cured, and in a few relapsed, it was only througa a perverseness and devilishness perfectly inexcusaole. As a physician of tuirty years experience l characterize as malicious, absurd and utterly untrue the statements that the doctors' methods ev er produced the slightest ill effects. This tact, however, is too well substantiated and generally known to thousands of in dividuals from all classes of society that the doctor has cured, and to too many houest and grateful hearts to need any special refutation. What stronger endorsement than this could one desire? Dr. Bauduy is one of the highest authorities iu the United States upon nervous diseases and certain ly does not speak iu such strong terms without full kuowledgo of Dr. Keeley's cure. Such testimony is unimpeachable. In fact, it is fuliy borne out by the work of the Kansas Keeley institutes, which are located ia the Portsmouth building, Kansas City, Kan., and J1 Clay street, Topeka. There is no institute in this city administering tha Keeley remedies. Wichita Eagle.

The case is of 1 onj standing and the point at issue was decided against the company a year nj). Mr. ltag'ui was appointed master with the duty of takin evidence and con ducting an invtat gation to determine the amount due tie government from tue company. Hi report places the turn at $70,00 Cftie case is an interesting one and is the outgrowth of tho action of Thomas low ing, jr., who asked congress for permis- iou to dig fur coal on the military reser vation at Leavenworth. in lSGS con thread granted the permission asked and awarded the eomp uy it) acres of land in one corner of too reservation. There was only one reservation and that was, that if the company succeeded in find it. co.iL, the government was to receive ono-fourth of on j percent royalty. The company eui k a shaft to the depth of 720 feet and f jund ono of the best veins of coal in tie west. A great deal of coh4ibs taken out, but for some rea son tho company forgot its obligation to the government, ai d did not pay its roy alties.

The company has taken out coal under the .Missouri river, and 000 of the amount-awarded h for royalties on that. The court may decide that the company is uot liable for the coal mined anywhere ir.ft than under the military reservation. A short time ago people living across the river in M is loarl claimed that the cuinpany w:is digging fuel under their curtuieii-t, and started to make an inves tigation, but the company refused to aiiow them to go into the shaft, so the Missourians have not yet been able to becure evidence upon which to base a t u it.

There are already enough Republican candidates for state printer to make an interesting light when the legislature convenes. As it now stands To eka ha? the two leading candidates. Major J. K.

Since the announcement of the nume rous applicants for the position of secre tary of the state senate, there is much speculation on who will be sergeant-at-arms of tho aeaate, a job which natural ly goes to some Populist. This place pays 5 a day during the session, and mileage, when th.-d oilicer is on duty serving papers at the direction of the presiding oilicer of the senate. Frank Forrest, tha "boy orator," want ed to be sergeant-at-arms until he got a uawspaper job at Concordia, and he is now considered out of the race. David Shull, who was the si-rge.-vnt-at-arms now has a job ia the peoiteutiary, and is not Considered an applicant. Loroy Dick, who was se; geut-at-arma of the Dunsuiore house, is talked of as a candidate for the senata pesitioa, and iien C. Rich, who was chief clerk of the Dunsmora house, has betm mentioned iu this connection. V. II.

O'Connell, who will be remem bered as proprietor of the Capital grocery Btore three years ago, is trying to re cover the sum of $32,10 in the United Stales circuit court. When O'Connell's st.ire was closed early in the summer of '92, he was ar rested at the instance of the Chas. Wolff Packmg company of Topeka and the Swift Packing company of Kansas City. He was taken before District J udire J ohn Guthrio in chambers in proceedings upon execution for contempt of court, and ordered imprisoned in the county jail. The contempt was held to be in the refusal of O'Connell to pay over money to satisfy the judgments secured by the two companies, the court ruling that he was able to pay the amount of the judgments. O'Connell went to jail early in June and for eighteen days he occupied a coll. Then a writ of habeas corpus was taken out and the Kansas supreme court or dered him released on Ihe ground that there wera irregularities in the writ un der which he was confined iu jaii. Soon after his release Mr. O'Connell left Topeka and has not been seen here since until yesterday, but his attorneys brought two suits for damages in the United States court for false imprison ment. Tha suits are each for $1G,0!J, divided as follows: Damages to character, feelings and health .$10,000 Attorney's fee 1,000 $5 per day for 18 days imprison ment "JO $10,000 The first suit is against The WoliI Packing company, .1.
