No occurrcnco in rccont years In Lob Angeles lins nrousod i moro exoitemont than the- rovelntiou that tho few charred nntl crisped human remains found in a hurnod ham nt Compton on Oct. 7 was nil that was loft of Dr. E. C. Ilarlnn, n popular dentist in former days nud ono of tho best known sporting mon on this coast. Tho remains had boon inclosed in n rough box and dumped into nn out-of.tho-wny plnco. Tho beliof thnt a dreadful murder had been v committed gained ground. From facts gathered by tho Chief of Polico the story ns it now stands is ovolved. liar Ian had gradually yiolded to the fascination of gambling until ho had thrown nsido his profitable profession nnd constantly haunt ed tho gambling hells. Ho was success ful nt tho tables, and soon opened n plnco of his own, which becamo tho most prominent and notorious resort of its kind in town. Countrymen wero trapped within its wnlls nnd unhesitatingly fleeced. Young men about town farod littlo bettor. The matter reaching n crisis, the Chief of I Police determined to pull tho gnmos. rf Just as ho was ready to do so ho learned thnt I Ilarlnn was not in tho city, and in conse- I quenco the raid was postponed.' I Chief Darcey learned that Harlan had come I to Oompton, and with him a handsome young woman of Mexican descent. Ilnrlan, al though married, had n weakness for this young woman. Miss Woolsteen. Tho clew of Harlan's disappearance, when followed up, showed that ho had takon tho girl with him, ostensibly to sell her several lots. It was lenrnod that tho couplo returned to tho city in tho evon ing, Harlan accompanied by n stranger. Thoy went back to Compton again about midnight. At 4 o'clock in tho morning tho team which had'eonveyod tho party was returned to the livery stable from which it disappeared. THIS MUBDEl! HEVEALED. The chief, acting on his suspicions when ho first heard of the burning of tho barn, took with him to Compton Dr. Bird.who had filled n tooth for Harlan and would be nblo to reo ognizo his work. The box holding tho re mains was unearthed and its contents examined. After forcing tho charred jaws open tho dentist at onco said that tho remains wero Harlan's. On tho cranium of tho murdered man wore found, at tho post mortem, positive evidence of gunshot wounds. Tho legs and arms to the knee and elbow wore burned nwny, but on the right breast, abovo tho nipplo, was a Satch of discolored skin somo five inches in iameter, and below this were indications that he had been beaten severely. On the left breast was a out seven inches long. Meanwhile Miss Woolsteen had called at the chiefs office and stated that she had vis ited Compton with Harlan to look at some lots and they returnod to the city. Sho had not seen him sinco. Tho next development in the case was information as to tho where abouts of Hattio 'Woolsteen and her Bister Minnie on tho fatal night. From lodgers at the house it was learned that about 3 o'clock on the morn ing of the supposed murder the two girls, who had been out riding with two strange gentlemen, came homo alone. They drovo up to the house in a buggy, and went hur riedly to their bedroom, which is on the ground floor. One of the lodgora helped the women to alight and put up their baggage. It was not until Saturday that tho murder was discovered. CONFESSION AMD ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. After Hattie Woolsteen had boon in custody of the Chief some days on suspicion of com. plicity in the murdor sho mado a confession nd supplemented it by an attempt to commit suicide by taking ohloroform. Sho is now hovering between life and death. In her confession Hattio admits that she and Harlan quarrelled upon the day of the mur der, and says sho upbraided him severely for his duplicity nnd deception. Finally, after he had told her ho oould do nothing to right tho wrong ho had done her, as he was already married, sho took a pistol from the folds of her dress and, in tho neat of pas sion, killed him. Sho says sho aimed at his head but sho docs not know where the ballot struoK. She thon hoisted the body from the bnggy, dragged it to tho barn and set Itho body and tho barn on fire. After all is said, thocaso has somo very peculiar not to say mystorions features. II Public opinion is on the girl's side. Sho was 'k kept in oloso confinement for four days by the Chief of Police Reporters wero not I illowod to see her. At last thoy took out a I tvrist of habeas corpus in order to obtain on interview with her. So soon as tho Chief heard of the proceed- ings he had a charge of murder Bworn out, and Hattie was taken to court, whero the nature of the charge was explained to her. B She was groatly terrified nnd pleaded not guilty. Whon sho got back to jail she con- lessed and tried to takejher life. H TWO VEBSIONH OP IT. H Tho chief says the girl told him two storios H of the murdor. Sho said that as she and Hurlan were out riding on the road to Compton, in B the darkness of the night, sho made a solemn B Appeal to him for simple justice Tho man fA tried to ward off her direct question, If ho m intended doing right by her but urged JM on by her wrongs, and sustained by her sense B of what was duo her, she at last compelled V him to say that he could make no reparation. SB He was already married and 'tho girl was without redress. Ho far her tale has been M been substantially tho same. The twovcr B stons of what followed aro given by tho Chief: First sho said that, touched by L her awful cry of grief, whon told that H the man who by posing as unmarried and m holding out hope of correcting hor weakness m it the altar, had deceived her. Harlan drew B a revolver from his pocket, put it to his head And fifed. Death was almost instantaneous. Bhockod and frightened, all alone in tho Bf night, tho girl did not know what to do. fJ Finally, recalling a barn near Compton, MV Bhe managed to drivo tho buggy there BV She then succeeded in lifting the dead form P'.Jler lover and, dragging it into the barn, H laid it on a heap of straw, and taking a match IPM from the man's vest pocket, set fire to tho J combustible pilo. Her only thought was to get rid of all ovidenco of the horrible deed. he then returned to Los Angeles and took K the buggy back to the llvory stable. After B Hattie had told this story sho asked tho Chief BW if he thought it a good story, or what kind of ASk a story would take best in court. Sho wan VB told bluntly to tell the truth. ;JM Well," she renllod, whon Harlan drow -JH his revolver he said to me t tfV Hattie, you had better kill mo or I will kill myself.' Bhe then said, I will," pulled ont a pistol JiJjW pf her own and sped the bullet through Har- lan's brain. 9m Hattie is far .from pretty. Sho has plain, H4SVMiHBBlHVflvfiHHVsTBBBBBBBBBBBBBVfl irregular foatures and a sallow complexion, yot thero is somothing striking about tho Blight, girlish figure. People in Los Angolcs think that tho girl was prompted to suicido on account of tho shauio of oxposuro of hor character, and not because sho was guilty of murder. Thoy soy her confession Was obtained undor throats. BROOME C0UKTY'SDEM0CRATI0 ROW. New York Cnstoni-IIoiinn Kmployecn Accused of l'crnlrlotni Activity. Hccordor W. F. Downs, of lllnghamlou, was among tho callers at tho headquarters of thoDcmocrntioStntoCommittco nttho Hoff mnn House to-dnv. Ho said thnt the factious fight within tho Democratic party in Broomo County was n very serious ono, nnd might cost tho Stnto ticket a grcnt many votes. "Tho Stnto Committee," ho continued, "should tnko somo action. Thoro nro two Democratic county tickets in tho fiold and two Democrats nro running for Assembly. Broomo in n Republican county, and if the split in tho Democratic party continues I nin certain thnt it will cost the Stnto tickot hun dreds of votes. Tho entire trouble lins been caused by tho perniciousactivity' of Fodirnl office-holders. They havo used thoir posi tions to control caucuses nnd ovornwo dele gates to nominating conventions. Tho honest Democrats of Broomo County aro thorough, ly disgusted with tho office-holding bosses. I hnvo laid boforo tho Stato Committee a mani festo signed by tho most prominent Demo crats of our county, protesting against tho usurpation and bossism of tho Federal office holders." Tho manifesto is n long ono. nero are somo extracts from it For about two weeks precoding tho so called Democratic Convention, First Doputy Collector of tho Port of Now York. Ohnrlcs Davis, Mr. James 0. Truman, of tho Treasury Department, and Messrs. King, Davidson, Leo, Terhuno, Tuttlo, Larkins and Snllivnu, of tho Now York Custom-Houso, appointees in reality of Mr. Davis, spent their timo in efforts by overy speoios of political cajolory, entreaty, intimidation, triokery and chica nery, in short, by all tho tricks of tho most unscrupulous partisan politics to manipulate tho pnmnrics in tho interest of Mr. Davie. Tho Postmnsters throughout tho county wore gcnornlly similarly employed. "The so-called Democratic County Conven tion was Democratic only in name. It wns tho fruit of Custom-Houso intorferonco in its primaries nnd wns run by Custom-IIouso in terference whon assembled, for no other pnr poso than to give a fictitious and fraudulent vindication to Collector Davis. How can clorks be expected to be efficient in tho Custom-Houso at New York when they spend weeks in Broome County in running caucuses and conventions? Oortainly eight men from tho Now York Custotn-House, besides Deputy Collootor Charles Davis, were there before and during tho conventions. Since Juno Mr. Davis has spent moro timo in this county than in New York. Ho is the dispenser of tho Federal pat ronngo for the southern tier of counties."

The conversation turned on marriage, and one of the party laughingly suggested that Mr. Fobs and Miss Foster bo married, as Miss Foster would only have to drop tho last three letters ot ncr name and add an "a," Tho parties concurred Jokingly, and Mr. Ilene performed the ceremony. Next day the serious nature of (ha affair dawned upon them and people In the village and hero are very much Interested. Miss Foster la the daughter of N. C. Foster, a millionaire lum berman. She has alnce the occurrence 'kept her room at home, and la greatly distressed. Friends of the couple see no way out of It but divorce. Mr. Fobs was formerly married, but was divorced last spring.

Until last ovoniug it had been intended not to havo any speaking at tho meeting, but to simply meet quietly, adopt resolutions of protest condemnatory of tho action of tho police in their raid on tho meeting of Oct. 8, and then quietly to disporso, on the ground that free speech was domed. Ex-Governor Abbett. of Now Jersoy, ex. Sonator Thomas 0. Piatt and it present United States Senator, whoso name is with held, wrote to tho Progressive Labor party Executive Committee expressing their indig nation at tho polico Intorferonco with the former Union Squaro inoeting, and offering thoir voices at to-night's meeting. Ileplies wero sent to these letters that thero would bo no spoechos. At last evening's meeting of the committeo it was decidod to have speeches. It is expected that these gentlemen will bo present to-night, together with sovnral othor citizens not in sympathy with tho Progressives, but who are desirous of condemning polico interfer ence with peacoful gatherings by lending their presence to tho protesting meeting. Chairman Shovitch has issued a proclama tion to those who attend the mooting to bo peaceful, quiet and submissive oven under insult or indignity, nnd to quickly disperse at the first symptom of troublo. Tho Central Labor Union's plan of an internal Police Committeo will bo followed so far as possiblo, and ono man in each ono hundred will be provided with a badge indicating that ho is a meuibor of tho Police Committeo. Tho Central Labor Union last evening votod that no flags save the Stars and Stripes should be carried by its subordinate organl. zations in theparado and at tho meeting this evening, but the Socialists of the Progressive Labor party deolare that thoy will not bo dictated to by any ono or anv body in tho mat ter, and they will carry tho rod flag, which signifies to them the bloodklnship of all la boring mon. Tho Georgo Convention which will assemble also this evening will be asked to adjourn and take part in the demonstra tion, but little hope of thoir compliance with the request is oxprossed by tho Progressive leadors. While the instigators of the moetiug are busy, Supt. Murray is not idle, and he has made careful preparations for any omcrgenoy. While he says he expects no troublo at all, he will be in readiness to meet any trouble that may arise. Thero will be five hundred pofloemon stationed in Union Square in and out of uniform, nnd under tho direct com mand ot Inspector Steers, iu whose district tho Squaro is located, Capts.

Klabt Feet In Diameter nnd I'nrty-I'lvc Hun dred l'oands In Weight. (fYtm tK Manektiler (lTft(7.) TYirt'.) Tho Queen's jubilee has been tardily celebrated In a novel fashion at Denby Dalo, and hnd It not been for tho disorderly behavior of the people tho event would havo been a complete succcst. Denby Dale has for a long timo been celebrated for Its pies. In 183 thero was ono bakod In commemora tion of the recovery of Georgo ill.; another was baked In 1815 In honor ot tho peace; another In 1W3 In celebration of the repeal of the com laws, and now a plo hns been baked which la described as unequalled In tho annuls of plo-baklng. It la rocorded of tho last plo that It wns put on a plut form, whloh gave way, and the plo slipped tu tho ground; that a crowd of ls.ooo pcoplo surged for ward. A scramble ensued, and iitmcl a wild tur moil tho stage was utterly demolished and the plo flung to the winds. Something llko this, but not quite so bud, occurred ut Denby Dalo. A tremen dous crowd of pcoplo nocked from Ilradford. Iluddersfleld, Ilarnsler, Pcnlstono and tho small villages within a radius of eight or nine miles of Denby. Ileforo noon the people took up a position outside the barriers which had been erected to keep off tho crush, whllo tho old pcoplo of tho vil lage of Denby Dale and the school children of Denby, Denby Dale and Cumbcrworth wero being served with portions of tho pie. The baking took plaoo In u spoclal oven. Tho plo wns tt feet In diameter and s feet deep, and con tained 64 stones of flour, 1.8.10 pounds of beef, 10 pounds ot mutton, 180 pounds of veal, 1M) pounds of lamb, 220 pounds of pork, ISO pounds of lard, M pounds of butter, 83 couples of rubblts, 8 hares, 43 fowls, 40 pigeons, 12 grouse, ai ducks, 4 plovers, l turkey, 5 geese and loo small birds, together with BO eggs and 40 stones of potatoes, 40 pounds ot beef suet and 40 pounds of dripping. Tho baker was Mr. F. Workman, of Halifax. The plo weighed about 4, BOO pounds. In tho morning It was taken on a stono cart, drawn by ten horses, to a Held called Norman Park, lent for the pur pose. When the pie reached the Held It was taken Into an lnclosuro and left thero for In spection. It was Intended that when tho old peo ple and children had got seated, Mr. Henry llrlerly, the chairman of the committee, should make u little speech, but this waa cut short, for directly the plo had been taken under ono end of tho lent In which It was to bo served to the people, tho strong wooden barriers against which tho crowd pressed gave way, and multitudes rushed Into the tent up to the stone cart, a scene of great confu sion ensuing. In vain wero the people appealed to. The stronger the appeal the more they rushed Into the tent, and the plo-crust rapidly dlsap- feared, being either given or forcibly takon away, t waaooUlllapromUt) bad been made that when the old people and children had been served the pie shonld be brought Into the field ami distributed, that the hungry mob could bo appeased. CRUEL TO PROFESSIONAL WOMEN. Horlnl Might Pnt Upon Thriit by member of Their Own Hex. I From IK4 CUcaga Jfafl.J A common-senso woman, who puts M. I), after her name, told me this the other night: "I havo but one objection to being a professional woman that ls.ltho peoullar estimation In which my own aox holds me. I know thoy don't mean It, but I foci It sometimes until I have to turn my face to conceal tho flush on my cheeks. Do you know that the average society woman acts as though she thinks that ono of her own sex who has a profession has no social rights? This average society woman would not admit this, of course. And perhaps sho doesn't really mean It. I would sometimes like to put on a dress from the dressmaker' latest pattern. Hut If I do, my pa tient looks at me In a sort of inquiring way. I think sometimes If I should follow the style of Mrs. Dr, Mary Walker that somo of my otherwise good patients would llko it better. Why la It; I am not railing against ray own sex. Bollevo me, I would not be a man If I had tho power to make the change But women are so cruel without In tending to be. A friend of mlno asked mo to at tend the reception lasit Wednesday night at the Columbia Theatre, and 1 went. Whllo I was thero I was constantly reminded by his other lady friend o( my profession. I was constantly appealed to as to ray onlulon of tho effeqt of an exposure which her own-lolly had cre ated, and when we went out of the theatre I had to go homo with her and leave a prescription. Sometimes I am asked out to dlno. and my hostess Inquires of me If I think her own food Is good for her. She doesn't think of my health. 1 am a pro fessional woman. How often my heart has ached at this treatment. I know that somo professional women bring this upon themselves. Hut thoso of us who would like occasionally to take a woman's hand for some other purpose than feeling her pu'so are stared at If wo do It." Over the Hen to Ilcr I.ovrr. Vuraf( (.Mich.)

All tho romoto points of his googrnphy flitted through his imagination ns ho strodo up tho gangway. Ho felt thnt ho wns taking tho first steps of his journey to parts unknown. His fnther walked calmly by his sido. Thoy wero shown to n 'Httlo room, big enough for threo or fourpersonH to got into if their ribs wero strong, and a good-natured looking naval ofilcor received them. Tliis was Joseph Murthon, Lioutennnt-Commnnder of tho Minnesota nnd Recruiting OOlcor. With a quick glanco that travelled from tho boy's hair tu his toes in sixty seconds, the first part of tho examination was satisfactorily finished, for tho applicant did not try to look iu two dlfforont diroctions at the samo time, his logs wero not inclined to bo the poriphory of n circle, and ho easily roso abovo a height marked with pencil on tho partition. Ho could read and writo. So ho met tho not too exacting requirements in point of education. Then tho youth was taken off to tho ship's doctor and underwent a thorough examina tion. Ho was sound, his teeth good and ho was not troubled with color-blindness nor varicocolo, which, strange to Bay, is ono of tho most common defects in tho applicants. So nnother point was favorably settled. For tunately, too, ho hnd not caught cold in straying around on tho wharf. If ho had sniffed or croaked with a sore throat, he would havo beou sent off until his cold was gone, for tho boys must bo ns Round as nuts. Then came nnother test. Tho boy was token out on dock and bidden to olimb up tho shrouds over the lower masthead. Somo of the urchins look up at tho dizzy height, mount tho rail, look again, say their prayers nnd go ashoro. Their seafaring is nipped in the bud. But this boy clambered up, not withtho monkoy-liko agility of a veteran tar ordered aloft, but without showing any par alyzing vertigo. If he felt his head swim, ho hadthonorvo not to "give it away," and that is enough. Thenoxt step in tho proceedings was to trot off to tho surgoou and get vaccinated. This is dono to nil, even if they have been vacolnated, and it took beautifully. This wns tho last straw, but it did not break the camol'a back. He returned shortly to tho little room and with a Ann hand signed his namo in a good copy-book stylo. His father swallowed something in his throat as he saw the pen givo nway his boy for flvo years but he only twiddled a bit with his hat, and then added nis own signature. Every parent or guardian has to sign an affidavit beforo n notary public, ft commissioner of deeds, or some person duly authorized to witness such a document, in which ho gives full consent to tho son's, or ward's, devoting himself to tho Government's service, and declares that ho will not claim tho money which tho boy may receive in compensation. Tho boy was now a third-class apprentice Tho Government shows its paternal solicitude nt onco by taking him off to bo washed and to got his hair cut. After this ho is fitted to n dear Httlo uniform, tight in tho middle and fluent at tho extremities, and ho is a small fledgling of tho United States Navy. This is the examination through which any boy from fourteen to righteou must go if ho wishes to join this branch of his country's service. A youth from Detroit onco managed to make his way to Now York by stealing rides on trains, bogging and talking. Anyhow, ho arrived. That stripo of boy alwayH does. Ho met nil tho requirements except one. Ho was half n dozen pounds under weight. Well," Mild Commander Mar thon, the boy burht out crying, and pleadod to bo re ceived, lie was a sound chap and full of grit, and I felt for him. Ho was hollow, be cause ho hadn't been fed enough. I took him to the Master-of-Arms and told him to fatten tho lad up. Iu a week ho presented himself to bo weighed ngain. Ho tipped tho beam at four pounds over tho weight. Ho had gained eight pounds in a wook." Another game boy camo from Jersey. His big too, instead of preserving a peaceful hor izontal, was humped up, and ho was rejected. Ho wont homo and got tho musclo cut that doubled his too up. Ovor ho camo, jubilant about his straightened too. When ho exhib ited his foot, to his disgust nnothor cranky muscle had curled it up on the way across. Thero aro three grade s of apprentices nnd tho time a boy spends in each is determined somewhat by hisyenrs. Tho younger urchins usually pass a year in each. Tho pay is $9 a month for the third grado, $10 for tho second" and $11 for tho first. They uext becomo sea men of tho second class, and after that of tho first class. Ago nnd strength are ri quired in thoso grades, so the boy is vightceu or nine teen when ho enters them. The pay Is ifl'J and $24 for tho two grades, respectively. From tho socond class of seamen tho petty officers aro chosen according to tho ability iliNiilnyud. lloatswuins and gunners aro tho amliitious posts to which the young sailors most aspire.

Whon tho protest was Issued by tho Kopub Iican Commissioners which established Mr. O'llrien's hold on tho offlco, Mr. French re marked: "I want tho Labor pooplo to see who nro their friends in tho Polico Board." Commissioner Voorhis said that in defeat ing tho resolution of inquiry into Mr. O'Brien's misconduct tho llopnblican Com missioners had injured thoir friend, ns the Democrats would bo forcod to rosort to othor nnd severer measures. This probably moans that O'Brien's conduct will be mado tho mibiect of judicial inquiry, and that steps may no taken to investigate tho methods of running tho Bureau of Elec tions. Messrs, French and McClavo aro masters of the situation, and thoy mean to make tho most of it, unless Mayor Hewitt interposes with a movement to socuro thoir removal. Lut Honor to Jen. Kllparjlck.

Jergens, a florist, of ST West Union square, and the other Edward Lola, an Italian waiter, or 1M East Twenty-fonrth street. According to the stories told, Jergens was sitting on a bench with a friend when Lola and two ladles walked by. Jer gens spoke to his friend In German, saying: Let us play mash on theso two women.

Mr. Blalno has now been in Paris for two weeks, and many of his friends who havo socn him thoro, as well an many who met him in Germany, Aus. tria and Switzerland, havo lately passed through Loudon en routo to America. Thuro is somothing strango in tho feet that all of theso friends havo gained tho impression that Mr. Blainn does not desire to bo nnmi. nated for tho Presidency next year. Homo of them, indeed, put it that ho docs not intend to be a candidate If asked, how over, whethor they speak authoritivoly, theso gentlemen Invariably say no" but still givo their Impression with great confidence. Whon asked, as many of thorn hud been, whether this nssumed intention of Mr. Blaino's originates from consideration of his health, they answor that such consideration is impossiblo, for Mr. Blalno is in better health and looks gayer than ho has for ten years. Nor do thoy infer that Mr. Blaino's position is hnsed upon any discouragement in tho political situation. It is well known by all who havo talked with him that Mr. Blaino regards tho prospect of llopublican success in 1888 as infinitely bettor than it appeared in 1881, when the defeat was so narrow. I stato these facts without coloring or with out speculation thereon, further than to say that such conclusions may bo taken with cau tion so long as Mr. Blalno authorizes no pub. lie statement. But the fact remains, that all of Mr. Blaine's friends who have been in Eu rope this summer carry home tho impression that the llopublican condidato of 1881 will not bo in tho field next year. MRS.

A Nrciio ol" I"rltrnirnt In the Western Union Operntlns ltaoni. John Moffatt, ono of tho best known and most skilful olectrioions in tho operating de partment of tho Western Union office, 105 Broadway, had a one-minute onconuter with a dynamo buttory lost Friday which ho will remember as long as ho lives.

Mr. Moffatt went hohiii-1 th switch board to handle the Ires n r elec trician was directed to put ci dvnnmo.

Help went quickly to tho creaming Mr. Moffat, who had a ground wire in ono bund nnd tho dynamo wlro in the other and was unable, to let go of either. Tho hucoud elec trician had connected tho powerful battery boforo Mr. Moffatt was ready, and, aside from tho turriflo shock, ho now carries around two badly burned hands, the electricity having passed into ono hand, thlough tho body and out the other hand, burning tho tlesh wherever the wlro touched it, Had Mr. Moffat been nfllloted with any cardiac trouble the shock would havo killed him.

President French and Henry Cleorsje Think the Democrats WMI HafTer Most. President Stephen B. French, of tho Board of Police, is an intenso partisan Republican, and novcr falls to score a point for his politi cal frionds when ho can. To an Evemiho World reporter he said yesterday: "Tho Republicans will carry this State this fall as sure ns my name is Frenoh. Evory report received shows that tho pooplo aro ripe lor a chutigo, and tho division In the Domocratic ranks by a separate labor party will add greatly to tho Republican majority." Wlioro do you place the Labor voto Tho Lobor voto in Now York and Brook lyn alono will reach 100,000, in my opinion," Mr. French said exultantly, and that will givo tho Republicans tho State." How much of tho Labor vote will come from the Republicans r" "Not over 15 per cent., or 15,000, ns against 85,000 drawn from the Democrats. I am not prepared to say how largo the Labor voto will bo in tho Sttito, but it will be heavy in all tho largo citios. Tho Frohibf. tlon voto in this Stato will bo about 60,000 so that It Ik easily seen that the bulk of tho loss will fall upon the Democrats. This assures tho Stato to tho Republicans. It will be tho first gun for 1898 and menus the election of a Republican President. Who our candidate will lie I am not prepared to say. but unless all signs full Junius G. Blalno will bo tho man." After this bit of political wisdom,, Mr. French was ready to attend to police busiuebs on a strictly non-partisan basis. Whon an Evenino Wobld reporter asked Henry George this morning what ho thought his voto would bo, Mr. Georgo pulled out tho '250 watch voted to him at tho Anti-Poverty Fair, mid bald that he would have to be brief, as ho w as in an awful hurry. I am not a good gneBser," ho continued, but I think tho lowest figure for tho United Labor party will he 200,000, and I beliovo it will reach 300,000. Wherovor I havo spoken, I have received the attention of everybody, especially tho farmers. Tho peo ple aro ready for a change, Tho old party lines aro down, and tho people want some thing new. Who will bo the next Bocrotary of State?" Henry Georgo or Col. Frod Grant. I do not beliovo tho Democracy lias a ghost of a chauvo in tho coming electidh. Our voto will como very largely from tho Democrats." Mr. Georgo then hurried awoy to cotch a train. Ho will speak this week at Albany, Poughkcepsie, Yonkers uud other cities. His debate with Mr. Shevitch will take placo next Sunday evening. It has been proposed that tho Anti-Povcrty Society forego its meet ing on that night, and the debate tako plaoe in tho Academy of Music. Mr. Shevitch favors this arrangement, and it is believed that Mr. Georgo will. AS OTHERS SEE US. What Ihn World's Itrlght HxrhauKes Aro Saying of the livening Paper. tyom tht poeh.

They aro, how over, better known as tho courts of tho poor, xvhero many tales of poverty, mis ery, oppression and cruelty aro doily told. Exacting landlords hasten to theso courts to dispossess non-pay-ing tenants, and somo of tho evictions are as .barbarous us thoso 'practised on tho other side of tho ocean. Tho umituro and effects of an unfortufiuto ten ant of a rear, top floor, six-story barracks, are placed on tho sidewalk and then carted to tho Corporation Yard, while a poor sow. ing girl who has obtained a judgment against a dishonest nnd unfeeling employer will havo hor decroe entered in a great big book, and hor employer will hide his indebt edness behind a fraudulent assignment. If thoro should bo any jubtico disponsod in this olty.it should be in theso courts.whoro tho poorer people have to appeal for their rights and their wages. Thoy aro people who know llttlo of the meshes of tho law and who, above all others, need the protection that tho law gives. Tho justices of the Civil District courts, therefore, should bo men who would reoognizo tho right in rags as against tho wrong in silks or broadcloth. Thero are eleven of these petty but impor tant tribunals scattcrod throughout tho city, and politics has a grip on nearly every one of them. The Justice may bo kind-hearted, an honest law-giver and may try to meto ont mercy with iiis decrees, but the fact remains that politics is there jubt the same. Tho lowest of politicians hung around the court rooms to rob poor people who come to ask for justice. Clerks who owe their appoint ment to maohine influence aro over ready to make overcharges, while burly and greedy city marshals, with red faces and stony hearts, are always in a hurry to throw the household goods of n poor widow out of windows for non-paymont of rent. It must bo said, howover, that a few of the justices do all In their power to prevent subordinates from extorting blood-monoy from thoso who enter tho portals of tho courts. At the coming election ton civil justices are to bo chosen. Thoro will be no election in the Tenth District, Twenty-third and Twenty.fourth Wards, as Justlco Andrew Jookson Rogers was recently elected for a term thot does not expiro for somo years. Successors aro to bo elected to Civil Justices Michael Norton, Charles M. Clancy, George W. Parker, Alfred SUjcklor, John Henry McCarthy, William II. Kelly, Ambroso Mouell, Frodcrick G. Gednoy. Henry P. McGown and Leo 0. Dessar. They are all candidates for renomtnation and re-election, with the possible exception of Justice Parker, who 1b oqed and who is weary of tho duties of the position There are also hoBts of candidates in each of the judicial districts who are striving for tho justiceship. Lawyers with small prac tices but plenty of political influence aro the most untiring in their effortB to bo made jus tices of the courts of the poor. From tho pres ent appearance of things the civil justice ships aro to bo rollled off in tho harmony pro ceedings between Tammany Hall and the County Democracy. The judicial districts aro for the most part the same as tho Sena torial districts. If Tammany Hall is awarded tho united nomination for Senator in a dis trict tho County Democracy will probably name the candidato for Civil Justice in tho samo political borough, Michael Norton is the present Justico of tho First District Court, which comprises tho First and Fifth Assembly districts. Ho xvns elected as a County Democracy man, but ho is now the Tammany Hall leader of tho Fifth Assembly District. Ho will be renominated. Frank Fitrgorold, son of the late ex-Alderman James Fitzgerald, is an aspirant for tho bench. Ho is a law-partner of James Walsh, nephew of Warden Tom Walsh. Tho Second District tnkes. in tho Socoud and Third Assembly districts, nnd Justioo Charles M. Clancy, Taminnny Hull, wants another term of six years ut tyil.OOO per an num.

The Fourth District is a lurgn German dis. i trict, which six years ago elected Alfied i Sleekier n Justico against nil mucinous uud I combinations. It includes the Tenth uud Seventeenth wards, or thu Eighth, Tenth and Fourteenth Assembly districts. Justico I Sleekier has no opposition for re-election, os.- I cept fiom John J.

If Senator Edward V, Reilly, Tnummnv Hull, is renom inated the Civil Justin ship, on the union deal, will go to the County Demoeruey. John Henry McCntthv, who now liniiilb down ile. lisions in Clinton struct, is not identified with either urgnniulioii. He is likely to bo shunted out.

Justico McCutthy says that he will run independent for ie. election, and boastH that the Jotlcrson clubs of the Fourth uud Sixth Assembly dis. trietd will support hnu. Tho Sixth District Civil Court is composed of the Eighteenth and Tvvunty.first wards, or Kloventh, Sixteenth and Eighteenth Assembly distriots. William II. Kelly, present justice, is to receive the united Democratic nomination for re-election, Ho isa member of tho County Demoorncy and is very popular on tho east bide. Ho spends part of his salary every summer in giving excursions to the widows, their children nnd the worthy poor of the Eighteenth and Twenty-first wards. He hat been a Justice for twelve years and none of his decisions have been roversed by the higher courts. Tho Republicans are talking of nominating nonry Kropf. who Buccecdoo the late Miohoel Cregan as the machine boss in the Sixteenth District. Ho was a clerk in the law offlfie of Assemblyman Ernot,GrosDy, son of the Rev. Howard Crosby. If Justice Ambrose Monell is not promoted to a higher court he may stand for re-election. IIo is a Tammany Holl adherent. Hii district covers a good deal of tho Twontieth and Tweuty.first Assembly districts. Ex Civil Justice J. 0. Julius Longbein is hunt ing for tho Republican nomination, and he has the idea that ho can win if a Labor can didate should get into the race. Ex-Senotor Frederick S. Glbbs and his friends havo declared war against Civil Justico Frederick G. Gcdney in tho Eighth District. They say that if Gcdney is ronom. (nntcd thoy will uso scalping knives on elec tion day. Tho unti-Gibbs Republicans vow by reform and dude politics that thoy will slaughter any nomineo brought to tho front by the wicked ox-Scnator. This pretty family quarrel iu tho G. O.

Tho United Democratic nomination would not go a-begglng. Two Democratic candidates and one Republicnu candidato xvould elect tho Republican. It is said that Tammany Hall and tho County Domocracy havo como to an under standing in the Harlem judicial district. Jus tice Honry P. McGown. who has grown f:ray on tho bench, is to retire and ex-Assem-ilyman Joseph F. Fallon, County Domoc racy, is to secure the union prize. Assembly man Jacob A Cantor, Tammany Hall, is to bo nominated for Senator as successor to Will iam 0. Trophagcn. Tho abovo combination is thought to be very likoly. If Tammany Holl names tho Senator in tho Elo vonth District the County Domocracy will uanio the candidate for Civil Justico. Leo C. Dossar, Tammany Hall, is now Justico. It is a now district. Justico Dessar wonld llko to see the County Democracy draw tho Sena torial nomination. Ho might then bo nom inated. The admirers of Denis A. Spollissy aro pressing him for Justice.

While he lay on a bench in tho roar room Police Surgoon Luoien Damainvillo was sent for. He lives at Eighty fourth street and the Western Boulevard, and did not reach the station-houso till nearly 7 o'olock. Ho examined Hahn and found him suffer ing from nervous prostration, caused by long continued mental strain. He considered him unfit for duty and tho officer was there, foro sont to his home in East Seventy-sixth street. Dr. Damainvillo gave him a tonio and visited himyesterday and to-day.

Jack has since said that Dacey both. ercd him more than any other who fought him up to that time, as he jabbed him with tho left, and her1 hadn't then learned how to "stop" well. Dempsey has long since grown out of Dacoy's class, and tho light-weight deserves credit for courago in facing tho Nonpareil. Dempsey played with him for three rounds and Dacoy deemed to be petting a shado the best of it, but when MitchoH's dread cut looso in tho final round it was as if Maud 8. and Western Dello trot. ted a match evenly to tho three-quarters and then tho matchless queen camo home as she liked, with Johnny Murphy looking back in In his seat. Another spectator likened the bout to tho races between George and Myers. Myers trotted along easily behind George until the last lap, then passed him as if he were standing stUl and burst the tape with Disbands down. Boating upon thellarlcm has run to canoes, sailboats and barges with the closo of the re gatta season. Thero is ono good race vet to be rowed, the one-mile sculling handicap for the Osborne medal, open to all members of the New York Athletic Club, which takes placo on Oct. 22. Thero are two kinds of rtally pood boxing gloves. Both Borts are made with the best of sheepskin und it Is universally called kid. Boston boxers aro partial to old Bill Busbce's gloves, whjlo Now York and Philadelphia sparrers prefer Fields'. The last-named glove is niado with what is called extended finger tips and afford n first-class chance to grip the hand. An effort was mBdo to got Sullivan to use a glove with tho long finger-tipB, Jmt lie still prefers tho variety ho got his, first practice with around Boston. Old Jem Ward, who died u year ago, aged eighty-four, for years champion of England, would never uso any but finger-tip mittens, and they are sometimes called the Jem Ward glove. Billy Edwards and Arthur Chambers are just as strong udvocotes of the Field sparring implements. Mike Donovan, teacher of tho New York Athletics Club, and Profs. Austin and Van Blyeko instruct only with the New York gloves. Most of tho gloves used in sparring nowadays are too small and hard. This is because no amateur thinks he has learned mncli till he knocks out some of his classmates. Whilo Champion Polo -Vaulter Baxter walked to tho dressing rooms of tho Mott Ha ven grounds aftor breaking the wonderful English Vaulter Bay's record at the Now York Athlotio Club's medal games on Saturday afternoon, ho told The Evehinci World man his opinion of the British champion. He's a wonder, no doubt," ho said, "aud I have not the slightest intention of disparaging him, but I don't admire his 'lapping.' It seems to me moro like an acrobatic feat than a fair trial of speed and strength. No, I don't have any idea of imitating Barry's method. Some of the boys sity they intend to praotlce that styla, and I think if some light-bodied, good jumper becomes on adept at pole-climbing he will raise the record to better than 13 feot if there is a good wind blowing when h is trying." Easy foot wear has come into fashion of late years. Timowaswheua man who wore low-heeled, broad-soled shoes was looked at as a clumsy chap with big feet. The best and most comfortable shops for walking, or pven for standing behind a counter in, are the seamed-down- the-entire-centre-ln-f rout shoes of the professional and amateur ath letes. Ordinary shoes have a sam running around over the instep. This is a most im. portant part of tho foot to be left free. At every step we take the long tendons on tho upper part of the foot raise. If they are confined 1 by this seam running around instead of parallel with them they cannot do their work long at a time without becoming very tired or sore. A well-fltting pair of walking shoes of the kind with the Beam down the front will wear longer and can be made of heavier leather, yet weigh no more than the regular store "variety.

Boss fishing has tho most votnries among the piscatorially inclined. It is a high-toned kind of fishing, and if o man con land a threo or four pounder he is happy. The nineteen. Pound bass, nearly threo feet long, caught at Hell Gate a week ogo is the despair of all tho "Bhermen. A bass doesn't often start out with the inborn conviction that ho is a whalo and grow accordingly. Tho best bait for striped bass is blood worms and sand worms. The tough fringe on a soft shell clam will fetch him, too. Bass average about a pound and a half to two pounds, and a fisherman is quito willing to show his basket if ho captures fifteen or six teen of these.

Of course tljis dance of death is to bo given at Niblo's. Years ago ingenuous supers, more or loss clumsily clad in skins, would have represented tho Torpsl chore an beasts, but we've changed all thot now. Tho management aro unwilling to entrust such realistic work to supers. Thoy have suggested the advisability of introducing trained animals, and have been dlsoussiug that idea very oitenslvoly. Now, in coso real ani mals be introduced, they will clash vory pain fully with tho human membors of tho cost. Tho actors ond actresses insist upon having their dressing-rooms on tho stage iu couso. iiuonco of tho mauy changes tho ploy requires them to make. Tho animajs will need those rooms for obvious reasons, and that is why tho actors and actresses strenuously object to this sacrifice to realism. This difficulty has caused a hitch in tho arrangements and a temporary stoppage of work. It will proba bly bo ovcrcoiuo during tho ensuing week. Tho Bijou Opera-Houso has not been lucky since last May, when Henry E. Dixey as. sinned a portion of tho management of tho house.

Tho ponies which nro to bo used on tho stogo of tho Fourteenth Street Theatro, in tho coming production of "Kndolph," nro said to hovo been recently brought from Scotland, and to have cost $1,000. Mrs. Georgo Knight is to manage theso steeds, and to keen thorn from careering into the orches tra. Thoy will bo attached to a phaeton in which Mrs. Knight will bo seated, and the turn-out will be in keeping with Bottcu Bow's latest edict, Harry Ponlton, who is known as the wri. tcr of the libretto of Erminio," will bo in the cost of Dorothy," the production of which at tho Standard Theatro is to succeed "Tho Arabian Nights." "Dorothy" will probably bo given on Oct. 31, in coso Tho Arabian Nights" can be scut on tho road by that time. IMchard Golden will then play the part of Ohou-Chon ond Willinm Gill, who is responsible for "My Sweetheart," will ploy tho Policeman. Miss Myra Goodwin has abandoned ono night stands this season, and declines to play at any insignificant town. Ono-night stands hove long been regarded as tho bane of tho theatrical profession. It is said that an actor who goes through a season of one-night stands comes out comparatively spoiled. Ho is obliged to adopt a ranting stylo, without which ho could not bo tolerated by theso country audiences; he is obliged to interrupt himself and the plav to make woy for the lusty applause, and all this tends towards de terioration. Slg. Italo Campaniui is with us again, and he received a hearty welcome yesterday from his friends when La Ghampagno arrived. Sig. Campanini has a comprebensivo com pany engaged for his concert tour, including Mine. Elvira Bepetto.Trisolini, Mmo. Sofia Scalchi, Signora Metaura Torricelli, Sig. Giovanni Baldini. Antonio Gnlussi, ltomano Manetti and Bahlnssaro Corsoni. Alfredo Gore is the conductor and accompanist. The first concert will bo given on Nov. 10 at tho Metropolitan OpVra-Houso. Tony nart's friends are wondering what is the matter with him. Tho once glib tongued, merry comedian is strangely changed, and no one seems to know when tho chango began, Mr. Hart speaks with difficulty and only manages to articulate with a most painful drawl. Added to this ho stammers somewhat. Mr. Hart entered the office of a theatrical manager yesterday and asked for Mr. Goldcn's address in such n I in tho houso was asleep, I heard a slight tap at my door. 1 opened it, and Ddla stood there. Sho whispered softly, Is Monsieur Charles here and upon my replying in tho negative, she stepped noiselessly over tho threshold, Sho wore a crimson silk morning gown trimmed with laco. Her hair had hot house roses in it, worth four francs apiece. I noticed also for the first timo a small soli, tairo diumond on her finger. She sat down, with a seeming embarrasnient, which I at tributed to tho fact that it was the first time she had ever been alone with mo. You look gay to-night, Mllo. Dt'ja," 1 said, to break the silence. Oh, do you think so sho cried, with a flashing of happy light into her eyes. Tell me, monsieur l Tell mo tho truth I Am I very ugly y" What a question I" I exclaimed, amused in spite of myself at her earnestness. You are certainly anything but ill-looking." Oh, thank you!" she cried, in extrava gant joy. You are so good, monsieur, to say that t If I thought my faco was ugly, I should not wish to live." She wont and stood before a long mirror, and turned her head to the right and to the left, looking at the reflection from all possl. ble points of view. Tho full, rich color which came into her cheeks made her grow radiant. You did not call upon me this hoar to ask that question, Mademoiselle," I said, be. coming afraid that she would nevor tire of examining her features. "No," she replied, turning suddenly about and coming closo tome. I came to ask you "Well?" "Monslour le Modtfclu," sho broko out, strange manner that every ono in tho place. I Atorod at him. As soon as ho had made his I departure, a torrent of questions wero Indis criminately put as to what ollod Tony. Ho is not playing nt present, as it would bout terly impossible for him to get through his part. Thore is a scheme on foot to Rtart another dramotic agency, under tho matingcmciit of tho Actors' Fund and with tho co.opcrotlon of leading manager, who wilt hlro their actors and actresses entirely through that medium. Several of the larger managers, such as A. M. Palmer, Henry E. Abbey ami Frohmon ond Itondall, have boon approached respooting tills project. It is quite pos sible, that during tho coming week sonio delliiitn plans of action will bo arrived at. J. J. Spies is to have the man. agctucut of the agency and to receivo a ml ary from tho Actors' Fund for his services. All tho fees paid tho ngency will go to tho I und, which it is hoped to greatly benefit by the Institution, An ngency of somowhnt situ, ilar intent was started somo time ago. but wns so badly managed that it was given up. HInufl Clint. Itntmell'H Museum Is worth vlslllng. The lilg tank Is still at tho Academy of Music. The Mouse Trap Ht Wallack's still catches large uudlcnces.

ItrprndurliiR Poses from ibe Old IHnMers and Ilrlntina- Nature to Town. Tho Kit-Kat Club has introduced two now ideas into tho system of work for tho coming winter. By ono idea the posing of miHcel. lancous models just as tho fancy seems to striko tho Committeo on Models is prnetieallv abolished. As a substitute tho members o'f tho club now work from a model posed after tho most successful poses of tho old masters. Stool-ougraved copies of tho old muster, pieces nro kept as works of reference in tho club's library. When tho principal points of a picturo aro to bo reproduced tho model is posed to resemble, us far as nossiblo, ono fig. uro in tho picturo. Whon this Uguro is dono tho poso is changed to hoiuo other picture. In this way tho nioinbdrs of the Kit-Kat Club will in timo becomo familiar with most of tho figures of tho best pointers. Tho other new idea is the Introduction of nature itself into tho studio. During tho winter timo tho artists cannot go to tho coun try, so they bring the country to town. Tho Executive Committeo is now busy setting up in tho club. rooms specimens of vines, leaves, forns nud branches of trees. This week n load of pumpkins, cornstalks, apples and othor farm products will bo received from tho country. Tho presonco of thoso things in tho club. rooms will obvlnto to some ex. tent the noeessity of tho artists going to tho park or to tho country. Tho season promises to bo an interesting one for tho Kit-Kats. Most of them aro do ing good work, and ore rapidly coming to coming to publio notice in their art.

Within tho post fow years tho demand for speculative trading facilities, not only in tho largo cities, but in many of the smaller one, both in tho 1'nited. States and Canada, has been met ill n manner that enables tho pen. plo in these interior cities to trade in stocks dealt iu ot the New York Stock Exchango, and at New York figures. This is done by tho establishment of branch "bucket-shops" in all theso different cities, which nro in pri vnto tolegmphio communication with tho central office in New York, whence they oio directly supplied with tho Now York quota tions. Ah a ruin these places nro patronized much moro extensively than tho regular Stock Ex changes, and os they aro usually fitted up in pit uttractivo, not to say gorgeous, style, they lmvo a much morn aristocratic air than tho ordinary bucket-shop. Ab a mntterof fact, they arii not commonly known by this oppro brious title, but are held out os branch of fices of some Now York stock brokerago firm, and thoso who gamble in thorn aro regorded os tho customers of the firm. Their trans actions aro called contracts the same as if they wero dealing with a legitimate member of tho Stock Exchange here, nud although no stock is over really bought on Male or deliv ered on thoso contrnets, whioh are merely in tho nature of registered lists, the samo as in an ordinary bucket-shop, thoy aro usually run by peonlo who have Bomo capital back of them, and it is regarded as comparatively Bofe to trade with them so far as tno ability to collect possible profits is concerned. It requires considerable capital to run A system of offices of this description, for somo of theso firms or companies maintain os many as a scoro of branches in different parts of tho country. Thoy aro to be found isj almost nil the cities in tho interior of the State, throughout New England and in Cauodo, and it wos only a doy or two ogo thot it was reported that two gorgeous palaces of this kind had just been opened in Montreal. Excopt that it is not so common for the proprietors of thoso places to "lay down" on their contracts, os in thn coso of on ordl nary snnp bucket-shop, tho methods of deal ing are almost identical, nnd nro just as unfavorable for tho speculator. Thero aro several of theso companies in Now York which maintain out-of-town bronchoB and thoy aro in hot water nearly all tho timo ou account of the opposition which they meet everywhere from tho legnl authorities. It frequently happens thot when a customer has been wiped out after putting up a big margin, ho will take advantage of the law and suo the company for tho amount of his losses, pleading the Gambling Act, and showing thot thero woh no legal contract. In addition to stock quotations theso com. panics usually furnish to their branch offices tho prices of wheat, corn, petroleum nud cotton, but tho speculative dealings in thcBo commodities are not as extensivo as in tho coso of stocks.

She grew quiet immediately, and we talked iu low tone for a fow minutes. She stated with the utmost frankness that he had nover offered even to kiss her, nor shown his affection in any wuy which could not be con strued into mere good-nature and generosity.

HK't, (JVem M Chicago TWlsws.l BM A despatch In the Tribune giro some account or H&f lumber pool with a centre at Chlppsna Falls. K Wt, and a supposed capital ot upward) of K too. 000,000. reople natnrallr deitrs to know If Kn slthero li to ba a monopoly on lumber as well ai Kt 1 other products. It would seem that lie who at- Hff," tempts to corner the lumber market mutt buy up Hn& the earth, and consequently that there f no occa- Kf 4aion for alarm. However, It la possible to monopo- Bsf'; lice certain productive areas. It Is a fact that sec E& 'tlonal pools oro growing-, mtirh to the terror of jHft. cmall mtlKowncrs. Mr, M. T. Qreeu, a Chicago KH Nnmberman, said last evening: jMsfV "The Mississippi Hirer Logging Company Is Hki probably the largest and most powerful pool. It KW, (jbas unlimited capital. It comprises All ot the Bv .iiprindpal mill-owners on the Mississippi from llcef BKl' -'siongh to St. Louis. It starts In at Ksu Claire and Efii 1 has of ntres at Winona. Clinton, Hock Island, Mns- gBi catlme and St. Louis. E& His It any foothold In Chicago Kf 'Oh, no; It Is a competitor otrlilfJKO. llslum- gHirj ber supplies a vsst area of the West In direct coin- y petition with this city. Much of Its product Is also gcccHy .purchased here. gccccK i, "Where are Its headquaitersj" ftt c At Chippewa Falls, H' A stock company waa formed, nnd the mlll- BH owners turned over their property to the Missis- gagVTC. Blppl Logging Company for a pro rata of shares gggggK? ednal to the value of their respective plants. The Hf t pool probably cuts from Too,0oo,ooo to mo.ooo.ouO KO feet of pine per year. I think the concern Is Kw i more of an Investment enterprise than a pool. All Map-i I it Is doing Is to Invest Its money lu ulsnta Hti'l f or- Hv. est sufficiently to keep abreast with Its enormous K14 business. fr, It would seem that this pool controls nil of the Kl, remaining pine In Wisconsin and pretty much all of TfV the remaining pine In Wisconsin and pretty much gaBi 4 of tne business In lumber along tho entlro MIs RiST ilsslpl lUvor north from at. Louis and west to the tfti Rockies. The area that supplies It comprises ffvi 95.000 square miles, and tho area which It supplies K? post be 600.000 square miles. Among the power- V Jul companies which aro now a part of It may be Hi mentioned the Eau Claire Lumber Company, HbS i Knspp, Btout A Co. Chippewa Logging Company, Er and the Chippewa Lumber and Doom Company. y Besides these are Innumerable little and big saw- B, mills and little and Mg lumber companies In every K Mown and city from tiu Louis north for jo miles HV along the big river. B Bow long will it take to denude the whlte-plne K forests T" B i There Is a vast amount of white plno left yet. v I think It will tako bo many years to cut It that b, peculation la useless on the subject. Its destrno- K i turn will be Indefinitely delayed by the growing gBV .popularity of the Southern plno. This year I have (L 'disposed of 100,000,000 feet of the Southern, or Kv yellow pine, s per cent, of which, of course, Is tr cypress." KS What is the extent of the nso of the Southern B pine I" K It Is coming so extensively Into nte as to make Kt.' It impossible to forecast anything. Tho yellow Vi; pine Is cheaper than the white pine and easier ro to handle. By mixing It with cypress It Is as K'f durable as the white plno. Cypress, by the way, K, ls the most wonderful wood known, and I think T .it Is destined to come into general use. The B& Houthcrn pine Is easily procured. It Is very n' (largely sawed by portable mills which follow il the tree around, as It were, and produce fc trom S9.000 to 40,000 feet of lumber par day. These H;' little mill-owners are getting very numerous, but Hs I tlll do not begin to supply the market. Northern ML men do not like milling the Southern plno much, Bm .because they object at various seasons of tho year JK i to wading in dirty water up to tho knees and taking Ef .their chances on holes and alligators, duthlsac- K count it costs more to saw tho yellow plnu than the jc v "white pine at present, owing to a lack of extensive M mill plants. However, the railroads hsndlo It rc marvellously cheap on purpose to compote with the fe. -White pine, and lu that Is Its advsntage. We can B t get a through rate on yellow pine to tuy point In iV the West cheaper than on tho white pine for much HU less distances. This la natural, becauso mp?. ,'tho same areas which produce the whlto n' plno furnish ores and grains, which give (V-. the roads all the business they want, so that Kl? they feel free to put up rates on lumber. The roads Kfv coming from the South and Southwest, not having Hvr so much of other products, make a specialty of the KV,-; yellow pine and set it down anywhere In the North t at rates which give the Industry great promise of a K& future. I am surprised that thero are not more Hv peoplo Investing in Southern pine land. Three K years ago we handled none ot It. To-day It is oue- Kr. sixth of our business. Next year If I handle a bll- KV lon fset of lumber, as 1 oipect, It will be one- fourth of my business. It Is a beautiful plno for R-r Doorlng, and may be found In most ot the recent Kft. big buildings of Chicago. We are already getting KV It from the Interior o( Texas, whllo Louisiana, S, Mississippi and Alabama are furnishing a vast n'' enpply. I remember three years ago when my at- tentlon was first called to tho vellowplue, A man Hd wanted to send to me a sample, and I told him a Mp car load would Uo. When It ooinc I looked B' it over with amazement and wired K- to know how much he had In his yard. K He answered that there were 6,000,000 feet. I re- B- piled to send" the whole outfit, and left his mill without a stick of timber. 1 have found It difficult H).- to get tho pine fast enough ever since. Host of KR, this Southorn pine could bu easily procured. There U are vast forests of It on high and dry saudbeds as Kf clean as your parlor. There Is no underbrush and 1 .consequently no forest fires. In many localities Kjf the trees are cut and the logs floatod out In high- kt water seasons. The overflows of the Mississippi QfHi' and Its Innumerable connecting bayous form the veryibest mesns for getting the logs out. Tho Ki Southern pine area has been pretty much all aS-' scoured by Northorn men at Uovcrnment prices. KSft It can still be purchased ut about fs per acre, but uS .seems to be ou the rise. Among Chicago men In- Kff '.terested In It are Wirt Dexter, N. K. Kalrbank, Mrir 'M. B. null, F. II. Head and II. l. l'erklus, who KV. have about 150,000 acres. There ore oer (i.wio.tw Pi", 'acres held In the North. Florida Is snld to have as B 'much unsold at Government prices. W i K3 I'omp nnd the llenr. Fzl IKron tht Amtritu (Oa.) Ktpllirant K When this country wus first settled the swamps Hb '((bounded with bears, deer, and all other game, Hb nd It was not uncommon to meet a bear on tho Kj. highroad as one travelled about. An old negro HEf aamedpomp, who belonged to one of the rich men P,-, of thlABCctlon, who was half the time depredating H 'an the chicken roosts of the farmers, and the Hi.. other halt hunting possums or coons in the Hi iwamps. left home one bright moonlight night to Blt? lit a 1 'varmint."

Ireseutly he saw a huge bear coming from ft the opposite direction, meeting him. He looked HK-4 around for Ms dogs, gave a whistle, and theu fell K1 -tin his knsn and earnestly prayed "Oh, oawd, oia rmp Bfvex troubles yer much, but now he K axes yr to hets him all yer ken, for he needs It, W pta tx fit.

Had the peanut been fixed, an JBF Incision could have been made In the Hi trachea nod the nut could have been removed) but Kifi-'- teP' moving about and was liable at any time to F return to the bronchus. There was uo further Hue trouble, however, until last Monday, when sud. de&ly. while playing on the floor and apparently as CL well a ever, the peanut again slipped down Into U the bronchus, and before she could be relieved she Rf' died, Era t mp Ua Hopeful ve, WPP Yon understand, Ueorge, ot course," she said, jjp; she nestled lu ht arras, "that I ihall have no L Bionoy of my own nntu papa passes away, I understand, dear,' replied Qeorge, tenderly rtf and hopetnijyi ''bntjorttaiak, love, Tiow feeble H;(' u your rather Is." V bj ONE OF AN ANCIENT RACE. An Aborigine' Petrified Body Blown Out from a Nebrimkii Htono Qunrry. From IW Omaha HrpnbHta. A discovery which will to some extent merit the application woudcrf til was made on the premises of Kdward a Darnell, who lives about six miles down the river In a dwelling nearly a old aa the State of Nebraska. Immediately to the left the meadows extend costwsrd to the waters of the Big Muddy, while a short distance In the rear a a hill, on tho undulating slope of which arc tho outbuildings of tho Darnell home. At no llmo has the proprietor of the farm supposed this hill to be other than the formation of nature In f set, there Is nothing to Indloate to the contrary, Through the knoll, andbut a short distance from the surface, a ledge ot rock extends, and this has been utilized to advantage for the building of foundations for tho farmhouses. Such work, howeter, has not been done for some years, and as It was thought that tho hill wss the home of snakes It has tint been u popular place of resort. Yesterday, Mr. Barntll, having cause to use some stone, repaired to thn ledge and proceeded to blast a portion of the rocky formation from Its place. The charge vuis prepared and the train laid, and a deafening roar announced the separa tion of the rock. When tho smoke hart cleared away Mr. Darnell repaired to the transformed spot and was awestrlcken at what he beheld. The great ruck n as ripped fur n distance Into tho hillside and had severed like the lips ot some gigantic monster. The under section, falling and resting at a sharp ungle, displayed to the ustotilshed eyes o( the farmer the figure of a man, perfect In contour and distinct us regards features, but of a substance of adamantine con slstcncy. The right arm lay under the hesd.whlc h was turned slightly to th left, the left arm rest ing on the chest of the figure, his entire position being that of one at rest. That formation which had been tho hair nas of such appearance as lo Impel the conclusion that It had hung below the waist, the eyes were finely arched, tho featans clear cut, the mouth small, and tho oval face had all the appearance of refinement and Intelligence, only for a short, retreating brow. lhe figure was nude, saving for a brenchclout, tho relief work upon which showed It to be tho fruit of some extraordinary workman. No shoes or other covering were upon the feet, and It was a noticeable fact that tho large toes pointed outward Instead of towarda the Inner side. The general appearance of the body showed It to bearelloof a prehistoric age, even If the fact of Its finding In Its stony bed did not evidence this. The features, excepting for the brow, are thoBe of the typical (Ircclan, bat the long hair goes In a meas ure to disprove that fact. No adornments other thsn an earring, which had, by lapse of time, assumed the color uf the body, were found. This ring waa In the right ear, and tne absence of a mate made it evident that this omameut waa tUe Insignia of a title of some sort. The coloring of the body wo not uniform. The right side of the head was of a grayish hue, while the under side, as well as tho under portions of tho body, were of a creamy color, while the trunk and limbs were of an almost white caat. The rock In which the body was discovered was of a peculiarly brittle nature tho Inner case, that la, and some of the visitors were ot tho Impression that the body had been placed In a rrevlce and se curely sealed by masonry.

Spttial lo Kantat City Jonrnat.1 To-day occurred ono of the most exciting elec tions ever held In the city, and the activity mani fested Is unequalled In any previous affair of the kind. It was an election In which u large number of tho ladles bf the city played a conspicuous part, not by their ballots, but In other ways manifesting their sentiment In order to obtain oten on the aide they udtocated. It waa a question of whiskey or no whiskey? the ballots reading. "Against the sale of Intoxicating Liquors" anil "For tho Kale of Intoxicating Liquors," as set forth n tho Wood Local Option bill. For tho past three weeks the temperance people have zealously pushed tho canvass, holding meetings every nmht under a largo tent In the arlous halls of tho city. Tho opposition, although not demonstrate c, have quietly been at work for aevcnil days past and appeared on the field to-iluy positively united. Last night tho temperance pooplo held their last grand rally at the Opera-IIouse, and tho opposition hold u very enthusiastic meeting at thu Court Uouso, upon which occasion Judge Btrotho dis cussed thu Wood Local Option bill. At 0.80 this morning all the church bells In the city were rung, announcing the fact that the ladles of the city Tn sympathy with local option would meet at 7 o'clock at the First Baptist Church, and all day long hold a sen Ice of prayer and fasting, the services to cease ut sundown with the closing of the polls. At an early hour carriages came up on the streets bearlug the mottoes: lteslst Temptation," Stand for tho Itlght," Saloon or no Saloon," "Uod, Home and Native Laud." Aa Ye Sow. Ye Shall ltean. At the various voting precincts Inconspicuous places were Unatlng banners hearing the mottoes, Havu the Hoys," "Fathers, te for Your Boys," Clone tho Saloons fur Your Motheis' Sake," and others of tho same siutliucnt. Tho church was visited by it large number ot ladles during the day, and the most enthusiastic divided their time rldlug around lu tho carriages collecting and accompanying tho voters to the jxills. The active workers representing tho opposition, although nut so numerous, put In their lust efforts. Tho polls closed nt sundown this evening, and ut 7, BO the official count was made knuwn, giving thu local optlomsts a majority of twenty-nine votes. The toial voto was boo.
