A group of throo men stood in a sunny spot In front of tho Fifth Avonuo Hotel this morn. lng. It lacked but flvo minutes of tho timo i. set for tho opening of tho second day's meet. ing of tho Ilasoball Leaguo, which was 10 J 'o'clock. ButLoaguomeottngs nro proverbially Jato, and thoso wero tho first arrivals. They i' 'were tho fomons triumvirnto of Boston, ilossrs. Sodon, Hillings mid Conont. jj One by ono the delegates arrived until a pood-slzod crowd has boeu formed, when nn 3 adjournment was tnkon to tho hotel lobbies, where tho customary clustors wcro fonnod. Strange to say thoro was very littlo said in re. tard to tho llrothorhood among tho delegates. Jho prevailing topic of conversation seemed to be tho percentage question. But this was bnly tho calm boforo the storm, for good authorities said that thero would bo a hot and hharp battle on tho Brotborhood question Woro tho sun wont down to-night. Q The work of yesterday's mooting was openly discussed. It seems to have given satisfaction 14 to tho majority of tho delegates. The playing b, rules as amended yesterday, it is thought, will s give much mora satisfaction than formerly. rhe allowing of two extra players in caso of I Injury will expedite playing, and will be fair to both clubs. Umpires More happy, as it looked as though their salaries would bo 'greatly increased at tho meeting to-day. They argue that a good umpire is worth as much as good player, and the Leaguo diroctors oro ifceginulng to boliovo them. i Thoro are many curious foatnrcs in regard to the percentago system. Presidont Steams, ,of Detroit, is making a plucky flgkt for the tunondtnont to allow visiting clubs 9200, with the privilege of taking in lieu thorcof 39 per 'P cent, of tho gate receipts, instead of $123, as at present. Tho Big Three from Boston are making tho fight against it. Mr. Sodon said to The Would man: "I don't blanio President Stearns for mak ing a fight. I would do tho snmo if I woro in his position. But as it is wo must light against iilin. Director Sodon hinted ho might compro i 'mine. It is known that Sodon has mado a propo- tlon that, if accepted, will havo quite an v Important bearing on tho club flying the 0 championship ponnant. It Is that tho chain- pion olub shall keep all its own roceipts so long as it holds tho championship pennant, or that it shall tako or give 25 por cent, of the (of tho rocoipts. It is said that Presidont Day, bf Now Yortt, favors this plan. r Director Sodon says that tho Lcogne in this manner practically makis a present of at least 1 $20,000 to the club winning tho champion- ,ihip. IIo estimates it will cost tho Boston i Club from $5. 000 to 10, COO. 1 This seems to bo a day of deals. Just beforo 'the meeting commenced tho Boston manage.

Thoro is somo talk about "la the methods adopted by certain clubs on tho vru percentago system. They offer to voto a cer- n i&ln way If a certain player is givon. It is una characterized as bribory. Tho mooting was riltl called to ordor at 11. 20 o'clock. S2 AN ISLAND ON ITS TRAVELS. It Slides Across tlio Mississippi Itlver and ll'jj v Katie a Nice Legal Question. bt SprtngJUU (III.) Dtapateh la Chtoago Trflund. 8, Tne arguments were concluded boforo Judge Grcsham to-day In the suit ot ex-State Treasurer vs. lluta against Bonjamlu Sceger and the city ot St, -5 Louis. The Court allowed three weeks for tho -y Jlllng of addltlonul printed arguments and took the case under advisement. The points Involved are inovel and Interesting. Arsenal Island formerly lay west of tho main channel ot tho Mississippi Itlver, just in front of tho centre of tho city of St. "Louts, and belonged' to that city. It contains 'about three hundred acres. The city gave Beeger ji Ob nominal leaBe to tbo island and put hiralnpos- teanlon to take charge of It. Gradually tho Island moved away from Its original anchorage, slid i flown too river, croislug the channel In Its prog- s) lieu, and baited on the Illinois sido lust off land la St. Clair County owned by Edmund ltutz. It assumed this position about 187ft. ;'I hen, in its work of river Improvement, tho Government built a dike from tho head of the island to the Illinois shore, and by natural deposits the remaining space between the Island and the 1 original western lino of Ilutz's farm has been en- tltely filled np, so that the water's edge la now noi at liutz's original western boundary but at tho West aide of what was once Arsenal Island. In 1984 ltutz brought eult in tho Bt. Clair County Cir cuit Court to eject Seegcr from possession, clalm i Ing all accretion on thl aonre frontage ami riparian ownership to the centre of the river. Tho corpora, tlon of the city of Ht. Louis appeared In court at ol ilellevlllc. was made a defendant In the suit as the jetoal owner and had tho case transferred to the federal Court In tills city. The defense Is that tho lilanu haa merely Impinged on ltutz'a farm, Is not nitunil accretion and Is ontltlod to move on f gain If the government will tako Its dyke aw ays toat 11 reals thero as a depoalt upon the bottom ami .hi !Jat Uutit never hud any ownership In the bed of ftiiiJ Btre,m) but owned only to the water's edgo as w It stood before the Island migrated from Jrtlsaonri lo Illinois.

A.J""1; An American tooth carpenter has Kmiol tot PutUn doctor on I A WONDERFUL HOY rREACHER. rnscnl Porter, or Indiana, Is tlio Marvel of All Who Henr Illm. From th. IniHanaioli A'tvi. Is It simply a wonderful feat of memorizing or Is It Inspiration! Is tho question every one who has beard Pascal Porter, tho boy prenchor, Is asking. This prodigy Is a product of Jefferson County, and Is not cloven years old. When not In tho pnlplt ho li tho most ordinary of ordinary boys, possessing nothing that would distinguish him from hundreds ot other boys seen throughout the country. In fact, the cursory observer would place him below the avcrago ot In diana boys. While In a state ot rcposo ho U list, leas, with dull-looklng eyes and expressionless countenance. He walkB with an awkward, shamb ling gait, not appearing to notice thc.no things which generally attract the attention ot boys of his age. Placed with any dozen boys of his neighborhood hs would be chosen out as the stupid ono of tho lot. Yet this awkward country boy, with his shambling gait, llatlct.1 sir nnd dull look la one of the wonders ot this century. He Is a preacher, and the leading pre ichor of nis peculiar sect, and If his sermons sro his own production he'ls the leading preacher In Indiana of any denomination. He Is a lecturer, and If his lectures are original, he Is far ahead of any uiau who Is now on tho platform lu this coun try. This may sound like rhapsody, but It Is tho verdict ot overy one who has heard him. He Is a plain country boy, vtltli llitloor no education, and yet In his sermons and lectures he uses langiuiie equal to tho most polished nnd cultured ul tho present day. His thoughts are those ot a strong nnd original thinker, and his words uro well chosoa nnd those of all others that ought to have been used, expressing hU thoughts Uearly and Rtrongly. His sermons aro logical In their ar rangement and show a wonderful and most Intl. mate acquaintance with the holy Horlptures. Not only do his sermons ditplay an Intimate acquaintance with tho llible, but with current history, and ho takes up and applies current events to elucidate and raako plain his topic and enforce his teachings. Nor la this all. They display a moat remarkable comprehension of the Scriptures. When he states a proposition he backs It up nnd enforces it with quotations from the Illble that are exceedingly well ohosen for tho purpose. As I said, out of tho pulpit ho Is the most ordinary of boys, but when he enters the aacrod deak a transformation takes place. Ills face llihts up and fairly glows. Ills dull eyes sparkle with enthusiasm and lnttllleencc. Ills awkward nnd shuttling manner leaves him nnd he la a new creature. When he prays It la with a simple, chlldllko earnestness and deep pathos, that melts all hearts. He praya as It ha woro asking f avers from one with whom he was on terms of familiar and loving intercourse. Ills God is one who Is not afar ofl", but who Is very near, and in wUobb love he haa the anpremest con fidence. Hence bo prastolllm as such. Ills prayers, If uttered In one of our city pulpits, would give the hearers new Ideas of what the Savior meant w hen ho spoke of those who should worship him In the spirit. He announces his text In the same earnost manner, and without any apologies or attempts toahow off proceeds at onoe to cWluatc tils text. IIo prcuchCB from his text, and In this differs from must of the preachers of the present day, for their texls are never hoard of after the rcuulng of them. In many cases any verse In the Illble would have suited their sermon as well hbIIio text they announced, but ltta not so with this boy preacher. His text furnishes the ground work and foundation of his discourses. He belongs to that peculiar sect known as 'Boul Sleepers." Tho docirlnotnat at the death of the body the soul went Into Bleep and remained In that condition until the llnal resurrection, when It would be united with the body, obtained an early foothold among tho followers if Christ, and num bered among them many earnest advocates. One thing Is certain there fa not a preachor in Indi anapolis who would not gladly father his sermons. Ho has recently delivered two lectures In Madi son before large and cultivated audiences one on temperance and the other on the history and char acter of the Jewish race that were marvels, and won the unbounded applause of the addlences. Like his sermons, the lectures were models of Ktyle, diction and eloquence, while that on tho Jewish race displayed an erudition that astonished overy one. As said before, the languune be naes Is that of one who has thought long and well, and who has had the aid of scholastic training and ex tensive reading. Now, whero does this boy get all this? lie has had no education and haa had no opportunity for extensive reading. In fact, his chances for Information from reading nave been very limited. Aro the sermons and lec tures his, or aro they the product of somo maturo and magnificently developed mind, committed to memory by him? It Is a puz zling question. In their delivery thero aro no evidences of memorizing. Thero la noth ing mechanical about tht delivery, as may be Seen In lengthy. recitations by even the best elocu tionists. Thoro Is no pausing and hunting around for a one word. Ihere are no repetitions or skips, hut tho whole la spoken deliberately and without any seeming straining, but as If tne boy comprehended tho full meaning of all the words he uses and the thoughts to which lie gives utter ance. If they are memorized, tho boy Is still a prodigy, for thero Is not another ono of his years, and with ns little training as he has had, who can week after week commit to memory and rcclto as perfectly such long discourses. If they aro com mitted, tho words and ideas must many times be beyond his comprehension, and any ono who has ever tried the experiment knows how hard It Is to commit nnd recite a thing they do not understand. If they are original they aro nothing short of In spiration. One thing is certain, they aro not part original and part committed, tor the original would show less thought and less pure diction than tho rart committed, yet no such breaks aro found In his sermons or lectures. He Is modest and back ward, yet the largest audlcnco, even of strangers, dors not embarrass him. Taken In any way, Pascal l'oricr la a marvel a puzzle. Darluu Act of Nlinrprrs. From tti. Lohttwill. Courtir-Journal. A bold piece of work was undertaken directly after the fair by tome Owcnsboro sharpers at the cxpenso of lien Dnvoll, ot Llvermore, whom they succeeded In robbing ot $27, all the money ho hud on his person.

He was fined f 100 for being drunk, but was let off on paying over all ho had with n sober Injunction from the court, not to get Into such a scrape ngaln. Tho police havo been quietly at work on the cisc, ami yesterday traced out Joe Hlgdon as one of the trio.

According to tho report, thoro had been discord iu tho management of tho bank which had lod to tho practical disruption of tho prosont Ilourd of Directors.

Tho prico said to havo boon pnid for tho stock was $08.75 por share, tho pnr value of which wns l?100. As tho bnnk is an authorized depositary of Btato and city funds, nnd tho market valno of its stook wns quoted at only 908.76, fenrs woro nxprossed ns to tho financial solidity of tho institution. Tho cauitnl of tho bnuk is $200,000, nnd its doposits havo been in oxcess of $1,000,000. Mr. John II. Wntson, tho President, nnd D. II.

It was denied that thoro had been nny dis cord iu tho Board of Directors, that the in stitution's credit or financial standing hnd been Impaired in nny way, or that tho quoted prico for its stock was any indication of w enkness. It wns claimed on tho contrary that tho bank wns in n bettor condition thnn over boforo.

This particle ho pronounced, aftor careful examination, to bo sound and uon malignant, but ho worded his report and mado his opinion dependent on so many contingencies that ovary medical man could havo immediately inferred that though tho particlo examined was Itself non-malignant, ho did not oxolude tho possibility of tho cxiBtenco of cancer iu tho inuuediuto neighborhood of tho placo whenco tho par ticlo was extracted. Moreover, ho was com. pcllod by a senso of tact not to express this point in so mauy words, ns tho report wns to bo laid boforq tho nearest rolativcsof His Ini. porial Highness; but ho repeated that every medical man could nnd ought to havo under stood his meaning.

Mr. Oeorgo has boon accusod of a dis tortion, or, nt least, a uiisapprchcnBion of facts in his efforts to hIiow that thero was a grind ing monopoly in land, and that tho poor were being deprived of tho land which thoy were joint ownors of with tho possessors or noni inp ownorB. no has said that ono-thlrd of Manhattan Island was covered with vacant lots, hold by tho lucky children of rich parontago for a rise in valuation, without its boingof tho slightest valno to anyone, and that by reason of tho gathering horo of hun drodfl of thousands of peoplo, tho valuo of thoso lots was doubling and quadrupling vory fast, to tho solo benefit of tho peoplo whoso paronts olalmed title to thorn, while a ma jority of the city population was hived up in crowded and unhealthy tenements. A Would reporter who has boon inves. tigating tho matter has failed to find any data whereby be could learn the proportion i of tho aoreago of this island now vacant and hold as city lots." Thoro is a vast traot of vncant land, iiowovor, on each sldo of Con tral Park. In Fifth avenuo thoro aro a host of vacant lots between Fifty-fifth street and Harlem IUvcr. Mr. Oeorgo has repeated ovor and ovor again that tho holders of theso vacant lots should bo corapollnd cither to build upon 'them or to givo them up to be distributed again. He has insisted that they should bo taxed ao high that it .would not bo profitable to retain thorn unoccupied. Ilero aro somo facts: Mary O. Pincknoy 1b ono of tho sort of holders by inheritance against whom tho tloorgo theorists inveigh. She is down in tho assessment rolls for 138 lots in the Twelfth Ward. These lots are in Fifth and Blxth avonuos, and One Hundred and Tenth, Ono Hundred and Eleventh and One Hundred and Twelfth streets, between those avenues. They aro assessed at Sine, 000, whloh is on a basis of ono-half of their murkot valuo. Tho rato of taxes is 2.18 for every $1,000, or SU0.0C5.C0 to tho city for tho 138 lots. That is a flue of 878 each for holding these lots dur ing 1887. No rovouuo is derived from them. Corner lots In Fifth avenuo cost a pretty Bonny as investments. For inBtanro, thero is 10 northwest cornor of Fifty-fifth street, whloh is assossod at 955.000. Its ownor, Mrs. Ilamorsloy, will pay 181,188 into the coffers of tho otty for tho fun of its possession this year. This rate is considerably lower than ovor boforo. In 1880 tho tax rate was $a2.'J0 per thousand In 1885 it was $21; in 1884 it was 4J22.60 and in 1883 it was $22.00 por thon- sand. Tho assessment on this lot has been tho same In those years. Thus lu 18HC Mrs. Hamursloy's cornor lot cost her $1,259.50: lu lHHSltcoHt $1,820; in 1881 it cost 1,'XI7.M and in 188.1 it cost $1,259.50. Tho lot is 24 foot front an Fifth avenue and runs back 100 feet on Fifty-fifth strnot. In 1882 tho rata was $22.60 on an assessment of $50,000 in 1880 and 1881 on tho samo valuation the rato was $25.30. In 1870 and 1878 on an assessment of $25,000 tho rato of tax was $25.(0 and $25.80 per thousand. It will bo seen that in tho Bast ten years Mrs. Hamorsley's monopoly of mt cornor lot. which Is still vacant and ytoldlng no income, has cost her $11,201. which has gone towards tho maintenance of the city government, besidos tho greater loss of iutorest upon tho investment. Une of tho curious tilings fonnd on tuo books of the assessors is that while vacant i lots locatod togetlior aro assossod at tho sumo value, occasionally lu tho column set apart for tho notation of buildings on tho lots is written shanty," and In tho extension of tho figures It is found that an additional $100 is added to tho valuation for tho Bhanty. Those shanties aro tho erections of tuo '"flquattor sovoreignB who aro suffered to make their homes on tho unused land.. They ay no rent and make the property unsightly, but tho ownor of it is taxed an additional $2.10 for tho shanty erected by tho inter lopers. James Lenox, whoso princoly gift to tho city of the magnificent library bearing his name has mado him honored by every citi zen, owns luuny lots In tho neighborhood of the splendid building. Of course tho eroo. tion of tho building thero added to the value of tho lands nearby, and the generous giver himself Is thus mado a victim by his own open heartedness. The Library covors five lots on Fifth uvonuo which, according to the assessment of other adjoining lots, aggregato in valuo $400,000. Mr. Lenox is assessed on t 47,600 for the northeast corner of Sevonty rst street, $30,000 each for three lots above, -and $21,000 euoh for fifty-two lots on Seven tieth and Hovonty-flrst streets, between Fifth and Madison aeuuos. Ho pays to tho city this your us his tax on theso lots $20,035.20. Robert Bonner, on a lot at tho corner of Fifth avenue and Fifty-fifth street, is assessed for $55,000 valuation and pays $1,188 tax on tho non-producing land. In tho past ten years this corner lot has yiolded up $12,380 to the tax-4rathoror. During tho past ten years A. S. Hamersloy, who has tho monopoly of tho northeast corner lot at Fifth avenue and Sixtieth street and three lots adjoining on tho avenuo, making a total frontage of ubout ono hundred feet, tias been assessed at from $41,000 to $100,000 on them and has paid in taxes a triflo more than $18,000. about $3,500 for each lot. To put it in another way, Mr. Hauiorsloy has paid at tho rato of $18 a year for each front foot of his Fifth avenuo lots for the iiast decade. Tho assessment is at one-half tho market valuo of the land. If Mr, Oeorgo's solo tax on land were ordained by law, who but a man of wealth could hold It f Mr. Oeorgo would take away the tax on buildings, but oxpensos of government would go on just tho samo and the money whcrowith to dofray thorn must be raised from tho baro land. Thereforo the half-million. dollar house on the opposito corner would not be taxed and Its owner would pay no moro on his baro lot than Mr. Bonner or Mr. Hamersloy on his. If the government confiscated the land for failure to pay the tax, who but a rich man could pay tho lease of tho land How much bonefit would tho poor man dorlvo from the change It will be soen that if one-third of the city consists of vacant lots, thoy would be taxed ono-thlrd of the $34,870,090.78 raised on tho whole city this year.

DsarHih: Do, like a dear, good'man. give mo some "pulnte" for younir women at the theatre. I go so often, and alwsys find that something happens io rume my serenity. Last night, a KcnUeman rusnlng out between the acta trod on my pet corn, and spoiled my uiuusemcut. The week before that I sat by the side of a horribly affectionate eouplc, who "spooned" all the time. As for peoplo who talk during the play. It Is always m; 111 lock to be cast beside them, why should suui nuisances ex. 1st Don't forget to answer this. Lccicktia. You might suKpcct that I was an advertising gent, Lucrctla, If I suggested any pattluular remedy for your pet corn, ao I will not do It. I would, tberufore, simply recommend you to wear loose boots until It la liettcr. Now don't be fretful and absurd. You know that nobody can see your feet, so what docs It matter If yonr boots aje a triflo too roomy t It Is easy to judgu from the tone of your letter that you think a gentleman bus uo tight to leave the theatre between the acts. How unreasonable! Now like a woman! Lucrctla, you do not, cannot know what an absolute neces sity there la for the rnalo theater-goer to brosk loose In theso Intervals. Ho goes out for tho sako of his mind. Men cunnot bear the tcrrlblo strain of a play for three consecutive hours. They aro not constituted like women. An undiluted evening of comedy, tragedy, or farce la too much for them. The cxcltcmont Is too Intense. I.ucretta, do not annoy tbe bread-winners by let ting them see that they hurt your corns, even If they do ao. Be patient and womanly. Whllo I would not go so far as to ask you to offer your right foot wheryour left has been trodden upon, I would aay bear your Injury with resignation, and In the future keep your feet well beneath your aeat. As for spooning" at tho theatre, frankly, Lu crctla, I will tell you that I like to see It. That Is nil you have come to look at upon the stage, any way. Isn't It Infinitely preferable, Invested with tho undeniable garb of reality, to tho mlmlo stage attempts I think so. Do not chill these yonng lovers by frowning at them. Let thom spoon, dear. Yonr time may come une of theso days, and you'll remember my words. People will talk during the play, Lucretla. I snpposo tbe reason Is thnt they've como to the the atre to enjoy themselves. You wouldn't mind It a bit If you were Included In the conversation. I like to listen to the bilkers. Their criticisms aro good bocauso thoy como from tho heart, and they generally say something amusing. You mako a great many complaints, 'Lncrctla, but I would willingly bet that you go to tbo thoatro wearing a big bat. What can be worse than a big bat T Don't, for goodness sake, attempt to stop men In tholr exits from the tbcatro until you women go hatlrss. An hour's contemplation of yonr ribbons and feathers and buckles Is of Itself a reason why relict Hhould bo Bought. Alan Dale. WORLDLINGS.

'i -I I lifial llllllp Whon Tom drops in to get something for Bob ho has only ono idea or two on the subject, floating drearily around in a boo of ignorance. The idea is generally a drossing-caso or a drinking-flask, or a cigarotte-holder, .or some othor tro racndously useful household utensil. Thou tho suavo man behind the show-caso slaughters tho idoa in its innocont youthful ness. Now a claret-Jag or a champagne coolor might meet your views bettor," ho says. The tailor-made young man is so flat tered by tho thought of furnishing a view large enough to be mot that ho orders a neat coolor for Pommery soc. It is in repousse" silver, lined with cold, really very neat. If tho father of tho bride or tho groom is wealthy his wedding proscnt is generally looked for in the shape of a six-flgurod check, or a handsomo, thoroughly furnished house. Both aro very suitable wedding presonts. Tho groom's own present to the bride is, whero wealth permits, some costly jowolry. A rivu'ro of diamonds, a collar of rich pearls, suporb solitaire earrings, or anything com parable to thoso is in order. Another tax on tho rich groom at a swell wedding is to furnish some handsomo present to the bridesmaids or ushers. This has not boon adopted yot as a regular thing in Now York, but in England it is as much a matter of course as signing the marriage register. This present is a handsome brooch or fan, and often the monogram of the groom in jowols is wrought into the design. This is an expensive- item. Generally tho most sensible, as well as the most elegant presents, aro in tho matter of )lato or tablo service. Thoro aro at least ono mndred and fifteen different objects that cun suit, adorn or enoumbor a dinner-tablo. Somo of them even tho most covetous or most oesthetio souls could do without all their lives and not feci a pang. If ono wishes to givo an elegant and at tho samo time serviceable wedding present, a china service is always acceptable. Somo people like to give a present that will be looked at by the recipient. Possibly this may lead to the selection of a bevelled French plate-glass mirror, with a frame of oxidized or frosted silver. Tho bride will certainly look at that often enough. The trouble with wodding prosenU is that the moro useful articles which suggest them selves readily aro not golden for that very reason. So a rather unnecessary, though elo gant, object is decided on. A young couplo who received hundreds of presents hadn't a silver fork or knifo among them, while flvo grapo scissors, four of thoin of tho samo iden- finnl tmHnrtv flinirA1 nmnmr Hm flfa A favorite offering is an elegant clock. Handsomely wrought brass sconces, candel abra, gas fixtures and tho liko, are very popu lar. So. too, are bronzeB. A really artlstio bronze is as good as auything in the way of a purely ornamental character. A thoroughly equippod dressing-case in rich leather and with the articles mado of oxidizod silver or carved ivory is a good thing to givo tho groom. Fino linen is always welcome. Emerson says that the most appropriate and acceptable present is ono which is the product of one's own skill. A painter or sculptor can not do bettor than to bestow u handsome can vas or bust. Whother a poet should give a sonnet or a musician a sonata depends con. siderably on the donor's reputation as a poet or a composor. Drear November.

Ho was very handsomo. very gentlemanly and very clever. Often bad she taken herself to task for thinking of him, and now, in their bitter humiliation, she wished only to escapo his knowledge. Sho would havo hid herself from his eyes from tbe eyes of all who had known her in betUir fortunes. Folding her work and. laying it asido, Ada spread her coarse linen cloth on the tablo and set out the scanty meal. She poured out somo milk into mugr. for the children and made a cup of strong tea for her father. This sho handed him, with a piece of crisp toast.

An old artist and a friond went to boo tho Catharine L, Wolfe collection of pamt ihgs in tho Metropolitan Musonm of Art yesterday. Tho old artist had achieved fomo years and years ago, and yot he felt no envy or jealousy towards tho illustrious foreigners whoso works filled four sides of tho Wolfo gallery. It makos mo almost Bad to como hero," ho said, becauso I soo so many beautiful pic tures; that I In my own poor way can novor, nover hopo to equal. That Is not all my fault, for I am sure that I would havo mode a good artist had I started right. When I was young I had to struggle hard to make a liv ing, and I could afford nolthor tho time nor tho monoy to study under the great mastora of tho world. Bay what yon may about self taught genius ana all that sort of thing, it is Instruction that mokes the artist." Good, wholcsomo criticism is necessary, too," suid his friend. "To bo suro." returned the old artist. Now, that reminds me, as tho story-tellers Bay. It is enough to mako thoso illustrious gentlomen weary of turning over in their graves to hear what some people say about their works. Now, wo'll stop looking at the pictures awhile to hear what tho visitors say." The old artist and his friend sauntered up to a group of young men who woro looking at one of Bouguerean's piotures. Oh, it's bang up, I know, but I can't boo it," said one of the young mon. "Ho's got his name up, that's all. Tho whole left side is out of drawing, and as for color, a kal sominer could havo done as well." its, said anotuor, onu me execution is frightful. It's foresnortoned, don't you Bfo, and the perspective looks as though it had been done with a foot-rule and a hoe." Poor Bonguereau I" sighed tho artist. Tlio young men stopped uefore a Corot. "Oh, come along." said ono of them; don't stop ot tliot daub. Corot tucked o pioco of canvas on tho wall and throw paint on it from a shovel." What a set of fools," said tho artist's friend. You do thorn injustico," explained tho old artist. "Thoy aro critics tho severest critics in tho world. In a word, thoy aro art students. At an art gallery in this city the visits of tho students were cnrtalled to ono day in eaoh weok, as tho freely given criti clsms materially injured tho Bale of tho ulo tures.

From tit Mantk'rtir Courier, The stono torture was usually tho first cruelty practised upon a prisoner, Ho was forced to prostrate himself, fsco downward, upon the apexes of flvo trlangular-shupod blocks of hard wood, tho front of his legs being exposed to tho sharp edges. While securely held In thta position hoavy atones were placed on the tlctlin's thlgna, and others were slowly added, to Increase tho terrlhlo weight, until ho became unconscious or signified Ills lntontlnn to confess. The box torture was a still moro atrocloua con trivance. Hound hand and foot, tho culprit was furred Into a strong box about two feet square, liming a coterlug modo to fit tho Inside ami capable of being lowered or raised at will. Heavy wttgbts were placed upon It, and as these wero In creased In number, depressing tbe lid, the poor wretch within tho box was slowly crushed to death. In using the water torture It was believed that the torment of thirst would induce a prisoner to confess hl guilt. After several days' subsistence on a salt diet, without rlcu and water, the accused was shut In a room where he could see and he.ir the dropping of water on nil sides, hut out of his reaon. The cravings and sufferlnga became fear ful under tho agony, often approaching tho bounds of Insanity. licprivauon 01 Sleep was euccicu ny placing ine criminal upon a bed, or mat, oer wtilcn a small stream of water was continually flowing. Attend ants were In readiness, and ut tho slightest Indica tion of slumber they would rouso their victim by ringing belli, beating drums, or the application of llru to his body. The treatment rendered sleep Impossible; tho poor wretch's mind became dis ordered under the torturu aud oftentimes left him a raving maniac Historian Ilnnrroft'H (irrnt Library. trom a 11'ajAfnafui, Wfrr.

Kr unerewere times when I asked my wlfo tu sit up PBEtJti for me while 1 got no more and 110 less than two u hours' sleep. From the very start I begau to cast HR) around for special and attractive literary features BHjKr that would prompt publlo attention and excite du- K) cuaslon. The first hit that I made, 1 remember, f was with a novel by Fanuy Fern, who was then Hl the leading llttirateur or tne day. Of course what U lhe wrote was of an ephemeral chsructcr, bat her HB books were having an linraome vogue and tier name Kv wsa known from one end of tne country to tne W other. H&o had declared repeatedly ttiat she would h xtot write for uewBpspers, but 1 olTered her tlOO per k column and she contributed to tho Leager a novel K whloh she called Fannie Ford.' 'lhe whole mat- br I't excited a good deal or comment, which nut HR materially helped at that time iy the fact tliat there 2' w" o very Interesting discussion In progress K Whether or not Fanny Fern and N. I. W11IU were HBU brotber and sister. Willis, who was u literary lion HPT himself, was very jealons ot all kluls of rivalry XT ana vsry mnch disposed to deny the relationship, HKL Edward Sverett's 'Mount Vornun l'aticrs,' whu.li n also appeared In the columns of tho Lert-jer, con- Ht atttuted another feainrc which atttncled'wldeaproud bg comment. Kdward Everett at that tlmo was eoeii- Hpf xlally the orator of the day. Ilo had been American K"; Sllniater at the Court of m. James, and altoetner K' ss a prominent Qgnre in our national lire. For i lbs Mount Vernon Papers I paid him 110,000. Hk, Tma WAS ENTElU'ltlSE. Hi When James Gordon Dennett, of the Ueralil; B& Ilorace Greeley, of the Tribune, and II.

Ht JUl these noticeable anniinlijue features oommanded HK.V pnbllo attention, and inontu by month the clrcnla- HR,, tlon of the Ledger increased, tiylrauus Coub's V a'ory, 'The Gunmaker of Moscow,' was one or Ska.

I was always a mUW, I.erv.fn' beliover In printer's luk, but with the pub- Hk llcatlop of Mra. Bouthworth's story, 'The Island Kfci a earl,' In ItiSO, I began tho system'of extenslTe HEIa nwespaper advertising which tlrst brought the BT Ledger Into great and remarkable prominence and f-Hp shot up Its circulation by tue thousand.

The Herald had been supporting McClellan very enthusiastically, bnt Little Mao came on here at the beginning of the Presidential osmpalgn to five a dinner to some of the lesdlng men 01 tho lemocratlo party. Mr. Belmont and other leading men of the party at that time advised MoClellau, In making out his invitations for tho dinner, not to Include lor many reasons tue name or James Gordon Bennett, and under this advice McClellan practically went back on thu paper and on the man to whose good ofllora bo had been chiefly Indebted for his prominence ln political lire. As wss nsturul Bennett by slow stages got aronnd on the other side ot the fence, and Lincoln, who 1 believe to do ono of the ablest politicians who ever lived, offered him the Frcnci mission In order to keep him lu tho new position which ho hud taken." Hpeaklng again of the cllorln which he used to make to attract pnbllo attention and excite advan tageous discussion, Mr. Bonner ealdt "The old Ledger building was burned to the ground in 1881.

I btgau buying horses thirty years ago, because 1 fouu'l that the exerclio and recreation ot driving wua jnst what was necessary to tone up my system altm my hard work at the oillce. Dr.bumuel Hall, a cousin ol my pastor. Dr. John Hall, was the hrst man who bought me a horse. It was u good tlirec mlntile animal, suitable for family use. Alter a short tlmo I met old Commodoro Vandc rLlit and the bead ol tho Harper publishing firm on the roiitl, behind flyers, and 1 determined that 1 would take nobody's dust. With this idea In my mind I sturted the stable whloh I own to-day." Mr. Homier started life us a typesetter In the oillce of thu llarirord Cuurnnl, and for a numher ol ycurs stood steadily at his case. He then came to this city and standi u small priming oillce ol his on where he did Job work, ills enterprising na ture was ulwaya leading him Into new ventnrrs und In tho course of u Utile time lie hud seversl oillo lu various portions ol tho city, uud In se tr.il of them did thu printing for small papers which could not keep a composing room ol their own. He had hilped to set typo lu one ot these oillces for the Jfcriiimf' Ledger. ms I.OVK ion PART U0118E& Mr. Ilonner ulnars had a penchant for fas horses. Ilo said ho only purchased tneni so he could peat Mr. Vnnderbllt on the rou.l and not for advertising purposes, lie purchased Maud N. Oct. 10, lb.H4, Irom Mr. Vuuderbllt, William Trumbull noting for him. Tho sum paid was H0,COU An offer of JIOO.IXKJ hud beon muuo fur the maro lu tho spring ol the year, but Mr. Vunderbllt would not sell her. When 110 sold her to Mr. Ilonner be suid that lie knew that she would be well taken care of. Tho new purchaser said he bought Maud M. tor a rouil horsu, uud would not let her be speeded. Ilo be lieved mat a gentleman could own fast horses without ualng them for gambling purposes. He had u famous stud, comprising such well-known racers as Dexter and Hjrns and a nutiibor ot horses which were not so fa-t, but were excellent roadsters. At one time an effort was mape to liavo Mr. Ilonner let M uud H. return to thu track, und lu u letter ou the subject which was published nt the time hosald: "I um much opposed to trotting or racing for money. It has beeu my lifelong oonvlo tlou and I havo nlways maintained that a gen tleman can own and drive u good none without being obliged to wager money on what the animal can uocoinpllss. He rorused to allow the mure to again go 011 the track, but kept her quietly lu her paddock, at times taking her out for a spin on the road. He said that ho Drat had his horses given him as a prescription. One day when bo had been working very hard on his paper a phrslclan entorcd and "Hobert, I want NMk" "What for?" was tho editor's question. "To buy you a horso." "I secured u saddle-horse," sild Mr. Bonner, ln telling the story, and used It for a tune, bnt lound that It did not agree with tne. I then took to driving and have driven evur since, and behind some pretty last steppers, I can tell you." His great nobby was the brooding uf horses, und he firmly believed that If horses could be properly bred the tlmo for a mile could be materially lowered. Iu ract, he aald he hoped to soo the tlmo when a two minute record would be a common thing. Unco whou standing ou the Astor Ilonao steps with Hobert Garrett ho uttrauted tno notice of ull the bystanders by strongly udvocatlng the putting ot thoroughbred horses on the old stages und mak ing thu lime to Central l'ark In thlrty-Qve lnlu ute4. Thero Is no way of telling just how much money he hud Invested lu his stable. He always was purchasing the latest in ventions ln sulkies and road wsgons, and any one w ho had a good horso to sell could always find a ready purchaser ln him. He gave u man $2,000, bo once said, to purchsse a horse that he wanted, nud 11 cost him unother good sum belore ho got through. Tne raco horso Dexter was always Mr. Bonner's favorite. Alley, the Jockey who owned Dexter, hud purchased the horso (or JOO, and ono day, when no was nnder pecuniary einimrragjuient, offered to sell him tho horse for tin, (00, saying that he was sure no coum lower tne record. "1 told him," said Mr. Bonner, "thai If bo could do It on my track at Fleetwood I would purobase hlnu He acceded to this, a ml we went up. Alley knew that It I purchased the horse it would menu ids re tirement tram the public, und, tlo you know, he actually pulled tno horse up so that he could not lower lhe record. He ufterwnrds sold him at auc tion In CIiIchko for fU,UO, aud before I got blm he cost mo 133. 000." THE BRIDEGROOM MISSING.

DAWSON TRIES TO ABDUCT TIIEM FROM THE WESTMINSTER HOTEL. Ilrr Hold Attempt UnsuccrasOil, However Her Ilnabonrft Dr. Dnirsou, Keinovr Thrm to III House on I'lflli Avenue nnd Illrrs Detectives tn llunrd It Aftcrivnrds History of the Couple' Trouble. A lady drove up In a cab to the ladles' entrance of the Westminster Hotel at Sixteenth street and Ir ving plsco about 4 o'clock last (Saturday, audallght lug asked the ballboy to ahow her to the apartments of Dr. B. F. Dawson, who, with his two children, a boy and a girl, ona aged about S years, the other about a year and a bait, had arrived at tho hotel two or threo days previous from his summer house nt hew I-ondon. The doctor was well known at tbo hotel, having been 11 frequent visitor there while he lived near by on Irving plsco a few years ago, Jnst alter his marrlsgo. The fact that his wife did not accompany him and his children when he arrived from New London last week did not excite remark nt tho time. Tho lady was Mrs. Dawson. Bhe made her way without hlndranco to tho doctor's bedroom, wbcre she found the children In charge of their nurse, bhe caught the elder child In her arms as It ran to meet her, hastily threw a shawl about It, a shawl which she carried In her hand, and turned to leave tho room, lhunnrse, however, mado an outcry, and Miss Dawson, the doctor's sister, who was In an adjoining room, rushed In. Hho and tho nurru caught Mrs. Dawson and detained her while a chambermaid, who bud hurried to the scene, was sent lor air. W. Cl. hrhenck, tho pro prietor of the hotel. When ho arrived he fonnd tho struggle for the possession of the child proceeding pretty much aa the cham bermaid had lull it. Mr. Kchcuck soon put an end to the struggle and then Mrs. Dawson said that she had come for her children and meant to have thorn. Mr. Schcnck told her he could not think ol allowing her to take tho children ln Dr. Dawson's absence, and added that he had Instructed his clerk to send a messenger at once for tho doctor, who would no doubt arrive shortly. '1 his announce ment produced a marked effocton Mrs, Dawson, and instead of making any lurther attempt to take either of the children she left the hotel. When Dr. Dawson arrived he was greatly agi tated, and expressed great relief on finding that his wlfo had not sucoeeded lu carrying off the children. Ho at onoe decided to remove them from tho hotel to bis residence. No. S Fifth avenue, which he had been stripping of Its more fragile furnltnro nnd ornaments, preparatory to renting It out for the winter. Apparently, how ever, he feared that a more determined effort would be mode to abduct the children, for ho In voked the aid of Cupt. Cllnohy, of tho Twenty secoud street station, who lives at the Westminster Hotel, Iho Cuptaln, after dinner thst evening, placed tho children with their nurse nnd Mis J Dawaonin u carrlagu aud escorted them tafely to No. 3 Fifth avenue. There Dr. Dawson, the chil dren, his sister und tho nurse have sinco remained. 'Iho house li kept closod ou the exterior, us If It were unoccun'id. Ditccllrca have been employed to wutch the liouso night uud day, and frustrate any further uttempt Hist may be inude to abduct thu children. A reporter of The Woni.n called last night at Dr. Dawson's liouso and found It altogether darkened, lu response to a ring nt the bclla grating lu thu front door was cautiuusly opened after a time, without revealing any light ln the hall. The person who opened the grilling wu Dr. Hanson tunnel!, though heat first denied his Identity. He ttnully admitted It, however, and said thai ho considered the mailer 11 family secret uud was not disposed to discuss It. Gn belne satisfied that the reporter was a rcpresentntu c of Tub Would Dr. Dawson opened the door and led him through the dark hall to tits study, In the rear of the house. Ho then anxiously Inquired Just what details ot the affair the reporter possessed. Ou being informed he, after some thought, said that It would be beat for him to make no statement. Mrs. Uuwson U staying with her mother, Mrs. Mcrrllt, nt tho Grosvcuor. No. 37 Fifth avennr. She declined to see the reporter, but sent down a gentleman who retused to give his name, but ssld he was not Mr. MerrltU He admitted that Dr. Dan sou had taken the children awuy from tbe mother, bill euid he permitted tier to see them when suowUbed. Ho evaded discussion of Mrs. Duwsuu's attempt to tuke the children from the Westminster Hotel and relerred tho reporter to Mm. Dawson's lawyer. That gentleman said he had beeu ln Washington for some days and had not heard ut uuy furma separation of Dr. aud Mrs. Dawson. Dr. and Mrs. Dawson have a fine house at New Londun, whero tbey have spent the last three sum mers. It has been well known to the l'rquol col ony uf New Yorkers that they have not lived hap pily for the lJt two years. Money troubles be tween the doctor and Ills wlfo aro ascribed by her Irlenda ns the cuu of the separation. Dr. D.ovsoa bus beeu pron lucnt lor omu years ln so cial, medical nnd yachting circles. As u medical practitioner he made u specialty ot diseases ol chil dren and had u large practice up to a year ago, wbeu he relinquished It 011 account or ill health.

The Central l'nrlllc's Able Lawyer Hiircumb to 11 Hlrokp of Apoplexy. A despatch from Omaha Bays that Mr. Alfred A. Cohen, attorney for tho Central 1'acltlc Itallroad, dlod n a west-bouud Union Pacific train between Hldney and CUeycnnu yesterday. Ho was en route from New York to Han Francisco, having left the former city last week iu his special uar seriously 111. The remains were placed In a casket at Chey enne and scut on to tian Francisco. Mr. Cohen wus one of the best known lawyers In the country, and has been particularly prominent ot late through hU delense of his clients before the Pucltlo Hallway Commission. He Is almost as much identified with hew oik as with hau Francisco, huvlug for the past lew years resided lu thla city, lln wus ubout sixty years old, an Kugllshman by birth, and was a 11 Intimate friend ot the luto Lord Beaoousfleld Ho settled In Ban Franclsoo somewhere ln the tittles and began the prucitce of law, lie soon forced a recognition ot his abilities, and lu time became kuown aa the legal adviser of Huntington, biauford and others, especially In their railroad ventures. After a wnllu tnoio geutlemeu found fault with the size ot his fees, but ho told them If they n anted u cheaper lawyer to fllul one, and withdrew from ihe charmed circle. In several Important legal contests that occurred soon alter, be proved hlmiell such a dangerous antagonist thai tho money kings were forced lo eat humble pie aud ask blm 10 resume charge of tbelr Interests, since then nothing disturbed tbe harmony ol tbelr rela tions. About seven years ago Mr. Colieu had n stroke ol upoplely at the Victoria llotol, In this city, which enforced his retirement from acllvo practice for a long time, lint apparently did not permtnently Impair either tin mentsl or physlcil mtivlty, iiiwih ihowu by the legal acumen hu displayed in tue ralroid IiituIumiiou. Ho wmuti excellent raconteur and had m.iuy excellent stnrlia ol early California life, lu pirsou he was portly uud about medium height. Ho had mi intellectual and pleasing face, with black hair and beard itreakod with gray. Mr. Cohen leaves undoubtedly a very large for tune, and had recently completed a very handsome residence near ban Francisco. A widow, one son and several daughters survive him. He was a member of the New York Club. Dr. ration to Huccecd llr. AIcCosli, Bev. Dr. Francis I. l'alton, pastor of Trinity I'rcibylerlau church at Moutclilr, N.

This town and Houghton were startled Just beforo noon to-day by trie sound ot what wus at first believed to be the ex pulsion of one of several large powder-bouses Jnst ouVlde tho town. Tho noise wss terrific, shaking thtuown as If by an carfhquske. At onco the streets were 'died wltn excited people, none ol whun knew certainly what had happened, bnt neary all of whom hurried towards the powder boosts with blanched faces and trembling limbs, Arrinng there It was soon teen that none ot thfcn had blown op, and tho crowd reparated Into small partloaancl hurried from one psrt or the town to the other endeavoring to solve the mys tery. Acros Portage Lake, a hair mile distant, Deoplopr Houghton could be seen running hall frnntlaln nil directions, and evidently as puzzled a the leople ol Hancock to know the origin ol tbe explosisn. No one could be certsln from what di rection lhe noise came, ss It had been so tremen dous as o giro one u reeling that lt;had filled the air for miles around. As 1 L'clock Approached however, the wife of Wllllsm Lspp came up to one group who wcte ex citedly dhcusslng the explosion and asked If any one had thought that something might have huppenedlut the chemical works where her nnsband worked with others making dynamite. The men she addrerted acted for a moment aa It paralyzed at the thought ol an explosion occurring there and thou with Mrs. Lapp started lor the work. They are, or wen, located four tnllns out of town and not far from tho like. Arriving there tho party wero natonnled at what they haw, or rather because thero was nothing whatever to see. The packing house of lhe pneiuloal works had been us clearly swept from too face ot the earth as though It had never existed, At first expecting to see ut least fragments, those present could see nothing what ever. But arriving en what had been the site of the works, tiny spllaiers uf wood and hero and there minute fragments ot the Ircu root were found, but not a bit ot bote, a drop ol blood or a shred of rush remained or the six p:nous wbo were work ing ln the psckltg.houso at tho time. These per sons woro Willie luiiiuud, Charles Uurkett,lhomas Thomson, Tim Crowly and Willlo King, all boys between fifteen and eighteen years or age, aud William Lapp, Jr., a married man. who leaves a widow and one child. All were well know lu both Hancock and Houghton. Where the building stood wus a holo, conical In shape and about li! feet deep, In which the sand was packed as hard ns cement, showing the awiul lores of the explosion. Tho packing-house was small ana situated a quar ter of 11 mile irom tho oilier buildings of the works. Kvery building was moro or less shattered. Tho nearest employees desenbu the explosion as almost stunning limn out ot their senses. Several wero knocked dowu, but escaped with a few bruises. They say the packing-house disappeared In a great ball ot smoke und that no fragments ooald bo seen. They weru too frightened to como to town sod give an alarm, but run ubout almost aimlessly hoping to come upon some ono ot tbe persons who had been at work ln the building. There were about 1, 000 pounds ot dynamite ln tho paeklng-honso, and the persons working there were simply rearranging the boxes ot the explosive to secure more storage room. Just what caused the exTloetou will, of course, never bo known. Fatal accidents aro common In this, n copper mining district, but an explosion which has killed six per sons, leaving not even a frugment, so far as yet known, of any ot thorn, strikes the) town as some thing appalling. '1 he usual avocatlpns ot the peo ple are forgotten, and hundreds stand about tho neighborhood of the accident fascinated, as nt tho the scene of a horrible murder.
