Taot, which collided 'with tho steamer ItoBa Mary, of i Hartlepool, at 11 o'clock Saturday night, ten oiles off Dover. Including passengers and crow, thoro woro 210 souls aboard the Bcholton. Eiffhty of tbern were rescued by tho steamer Elbro, of Sunderland. They woro landed safoly at tho Sailors' Homo, Dover. The llosa Mary is at anchor off Ilamsgato. Both hor bows aro stove. Two bodies of victims havo floated ashoro Dt Deal. There is now no doubt that Capt. Taat Went down with his steamor. Mr. Itobson, ono of tho passengers saved, stated to the reportor that tho W. A. Bcholton had just weighed anchor when the collision occurred. There wero 800 life-bolts on board, and most of the passongors woro supplied with them, but thoy proved useless in a majority of cases, as tho pooplo wero engulfed with the ship. Tho steamer's docks bnrst when sho was foundering. Tho sunken vessel lies in twenty fathoms of water. Tho survivors will sail for Now York on Wednesday. Eighty persona in all havo.bcou saved from tho wrecked steamer W. A. Scholten. Ono of tho survivors is named Kolno. Thoro is another survivor in tho hospital whoso namo is not known. Chief Engineer Edixhovun was landed at Benford yesterday morning. No moro bodicH have been recovered at Dover. FAULT OF THE OSA MAUI. It is tho universal fooling that tho fault of llio-VolliBion rests with the steamer Kosa Mary. Ohiof Mate Wells, of that vesaol, statos thnt sho left Hartlepool on Vf iday in command of Capt. WebRtor and with a crow of sixteen men. On tho night of tho collision thero was n shifting fog sometimes it was dense, while at intervals it was clear. At about 8.S0 o'clock, ho says, the collision oc curred. Wo had been at anchor sinco 8 o'clock. Myself and tho captain wero on tho bridge. Tho r,ea was of tho calmest, our lights wero burning brightly and the fog-bell was sound ing constantly. I first baw the colliding steamer off tho starboard bow. Bho was show ing white and green lights, indicating that sho was shaping her course to tho starboard side. We could not shift our position, being anchored and tho tido boing ebb. Tho Btcamer soon ported her helm and attempted to cross our bows. Tho tido, however, not being rightly judged settled tho veBsel on our bows, cutting hor to tho wutcr's edgo. I canuot -say whctheritwastheAV". A. Bcholton that col lided with us. Whatovcr vessel it was, she proceeded on her courso and soon disapeared in the darkness. Wo romainod at anchor during tho night, and were piloted to Dover at 7 o'clock in tho morning. Thero wo dockod." Cnpt. Wobstor states that tho weather dur ing tho voyagowas hazy. On Saturday morn ing thoro was a heavy fog, and tho Itosa Mary anchored for three hours off Halforduess. She proceeded at 1 o'clock and passed tho East Goodwin lightship at 7 in tho evening. Tho fog bocamo so thick that sho was com pelled to anchor again at 8 o'clock, the vessol being thou from seven to eight jhiles southwest of tho East Goodwin light. Tho collision occurred at about 1.30 p. m. Tho forocastio lookout was tho first to intimate tho approach of a vessol. BrNKINO OF THE SCHOLTEN. The W. A. Soholten loft Hottordam Satur dny morning. At tho timo of tho accident a donso fog prevailed. Tho Bcholtcn was struck on tho port bow by tho llosa Mary. Immediately aftor the shook was felt tho Scholten's pnssongers, all of whom had re tired for tho night, rushed on deck in their night clothes. Tho boats wero promptly ordered to bo lowered, but it was found that only two woro available Tho three qthers ero useless and woro not lowered. Tho water rushed swiftly through tho holo in tbo bow, and a terrible scouo ensued. Tho panio-Btriokon passongors uttered piercing fhrioks, and many fell on their knees and prayed aloud. Little children clung tq their mothers, who themselves were shrieking !ith terror. Tho officers wero cool and self possessed and romainod on tho bridge to tho Just. Bovoral persons procured lifo belts and leaped into tho sea. BTonr of a pabsenoeh. Oeorgo Apploby, about twonty-flvo years of so, who was a pashongor from Newcastle to ftew York, by way of Rotterdam, and who is j among those rescued, has given tho follow- ug account of his oxperienccs'ln connection f With tho catastrophe Thoro woro only uiuo or ten EngliBh on oonrd tho Bcholton, ono boing a young lady namod Sarah Louisa Gold, who belongs to I iunbridgo Wells. I bocamo friends with a I young man named Stepney, who, liko my I Mil, belongs to Newcastle, and also with a I n named Thomas llobson, When we I wero about ten mile, I appose, uouth, tM bbbbbU" cast of Dovor, wo wero all in our bunks when wo heard a tremendous crash. I ran on deck amidst a general scrauiblo and I found that tho steamor had struck ub on tho port bow. At first it did not seem as if any damago had been dono, but in a fow minutes wo heard an ordor to lower tho boalB. Tho sailors mauagod to lower two boats, but tho threo others could not, it seemed, be lowered. At any rate they wero not lowored. Ono of them would havo hold nearly a hundred per sons. Miss Gold and I did not get a chanco to get into either of the boats. A fog had juBt left tho wator and tho sea was fairly calm. Thoro wero numbers of life-bolts on our vessol and thoy woro placed whoro all could reach thorn. Miss Gold and I eaoh put ono on. About twenty minutes aftor tho collision our Bteamor foundered. Wo stood on deck until sho went down and then wero in tho water togothor. We could not swim, but wo kept togcthor. Bovoral persons had, liko our Belves, put life-belts on and theso floated about in tho sea. All tho others, with the exception of those who had got into boats, went down with tho vessel. All who wero roscued from tho sea wero wearing life bolts. A Bteamor, which afterwards provod to be tho Ebro, of Sunderland, camo oloso to tho Bunken vessel, and her boats rescued several of our passongors and took thom on tho stenmor. Thoy returned to tho wreck and picked up moro, taking thom, to tho steamer. Tho vessol that had run into us wo did not sco agnin. Miss Gold and I kept to gothor and cot drifted towards ttio rcBouing Bteamor. Tho ropo was thrown to us and wo held on until the boat came and picked us up. It is a curious thing with re gard to tho bolts that in the afternoon a number ofpassengors were trying thom on and laughing at their strango appearance, little thinking how soon thoy would want them. Nona of the passongors without belts wero picked up except one, and this was n very stout woman, who clung to a life-buoy." LEAPINO into the sea. Tho young man Btepney is the son of a Wosloyan minister. He states that when tho vessol foundered ho was in a different part of tho ship from Appleby and Miss Gold, and proceeds I ran towards thom to tell thom to come to the boat in which I was going, but I was stopped by the water, and, on returning, I found my boat adrift. I leaped from tho steamer into the sea, and caught hold of a boat and was lifted in. Only two of the boats, I think, could be launched. Our boat wont towards a steamor which turned out to bo tho Ebro. Our vessel hod sent up rockets and directly our whistlo commonced blowing, Tho other boat was also full and wo passed numbers of persons in tho wator. We wero taken to tbo Ebro and wero thoro very kindly treated. Tho Ebro cruised about and sent her boats to pick up as many as she could. Tho cries lis tho Scholten disappeared wero heart rending. In fact all tho while wo wero crossing in tho boat to tho Ebro wo passed many persons on either side of us in tho water, but could not take them up or render nny assistance on account of our boat being full. I was very excited and could not say how many were in our boat thirty or forty perhaps. The boatswain of our vessel acted in a praiseworthy manner. Before the steamer wont down considerable coolness was displayed, and tho captain and officers remained on tho bridge to tho last moment. Every ono who could procuro a bolt pnt ono on. Thoro was some thing wrong with the boat I cot in, for mon had to bail it out with their bats, hands or anything thoy had. Hoforo tho vessel went down several people plunged overboard with bolts on. After I got on tho Ebro tho samo boat roturned sovoral times looking for others. I Baw several mon go down, and women, too, and theso seemed exhausted and unable to hold any longer to things they had been clinging to. Children crying on tho deck and tho foreigners on board praviug formed a terrible sccno and I shall never forget it. Just before tho col lision thero had been a little merriment on board and some dancing, but we had gouo to bod whon it happened. We did not feol much of a shock. Tho officers said some thing about being safe, with air-tight com partments, but I think it was said to prevent a panic. No doubt several persons were killed or drowned in their berths whon our vessel was struck. Tho Ebro. which savoel us all, cruised about till nearly 4 o'clock in tho morning, when sho camo in and anchored in Dover Hay.

Agent Von don Toorn said tho vessol car ried a cargo of gin, brandy, rum, wines, tobacco and dry goods, valued at 8800,000. Ho supposed tho consignees wero fully insured. Tho vessel was worth $310,000, and was insured by tho company for 8175,000. The Scholten, ho Bald, according to cable grams rocehed by tho company, was struck amidships near tho engine-room on tho port sldo. Sho heeled over on that sido and tho life-boat on tho starboard side woro at once washed away or bocamo unapproachable. Ho denied the report that the vessol was out of her courso at the timo of tho collision. Capt. Doy, of tho United Statos steamship Inspection, says that when tho ship was last in this port sho was found to bo comnlotoly equipped in tho matter of lifeboats and lifebelts. Bho carried 200 inoro llfo-belts than the law required. All of tho belts woro of tho most approved nmko and were furnished with com partments for storing broad and water. Friend In Henrch of Ncwa.

Tho steamer Telephone, on her regulor trip from Port land with 150 passongors, was burned horo last oveniug. Tho boat was running at such u high speed that in a few minutes tho whole after part was enveloped in flames. Tho engineer shouted up the tube to Cnpt, Bcott, who was at tho wheel Hoat's atlro." Captain Scott mado a sharp turn and ran tho boat at full speed on to tho bank, and ever' man, woman and child escaped, except a drunken man, who was badly burned and will probably die. The Telephone was tho fastest Btcrn wheel boat in tho world and tho fustcbt craft of any sort on tho Pacific coast waters. m m COMSTOCK MVT1IE TOMBS.

He had a talk with Justice Kilbreth, but tho last-namsrl geutlo man would not divulgo tho naturo pf tho con versation. It was learned, howevor, that Comstock asked if thoro had been any w ar rant issued for his arrest, and on receiving a negativo replv, hastened out of Court, beam ing with smiles. Mrs. Flynn, mother of tho littlo boy, Johnny Flynn, who wns tho subject of Corn stock's wrath in City Hall Park last week, was met in tho narrow hallway loading from X'ark Btreot to her squalid rooms on tho fourth floor of tho shabby and crowded tenement in the rear of 39 this morning. She had been out to purchase with her fow pennies some littlo delicacy for hor sick boy. Thero was trouble in ovory lino of her faco. Sho said that Johnny seemed worse this morning and could relish nothing. Bho said that sho should visit a police court this of tor noon and swear out a warrant for Comstock's nrrest for assault on her boy, adding, if tho law is mado to tako caro of tho children of the poor folk MR. DEPEW'S TRIP OP INSPECTION. It Will Iteault In Home Improvnincnts Along tha Central' I.I lira. President Chauncey M.

No vcstlgo is left of tho thousands of small auimalB, birds, seals and sunken. It is ouly tho carcasses of the lnrgor bentts that mark tho spot whero thoy perished. Tho flro was sudden, torrible aud boou ovor. Iu the excitement of such a fire, made moro appalling by tho shrloks and groans of wild boasts as they woro being tortured, peo ple lost their heads. When tho flro was first started one of tho wagons nnd dragged its roasted body tinder tho seats of tho grand staud of tho baseball grounds near by. Tho escapo of tho big lion, Kim," caused another pnnlo. Ilia keeper, Joseph Delorm, tried to save him. Nlm was ono oT thu trained lions that did tho strcct-pnrndo net witli Delorui. Tho keeper rushed Into tho burntug build Ing amidst tho roaring of tho infuriated beasts.

Tho threo lions let free rushed into the horse room, where tho flro had just started, aud flew at tho struggling steeds. Thoro was a crash as if tho hayloft had fallen, aud tho thrcu lions wero destroyed, mil's iir.ATii KTiuinoi.UH. "With Kim it was different. Ho Blowly crawlod out of his den, and Dolorni fastened his hand iu tho mauo of tho king of bensts. Old Nim walked with his keeper quietly out of tho pandouiouium of noiso, flru and smoke aud submitted himself to bo fastened In a wooden shod. Delorm left an assistant to watch him aud turned away. Tho liou remained only a few niomouta In his thin wooden hqtiHu, aud then jumped through tho brittle boards and rushed Into tho crowd, l'ollccmen emptied their io volvcrs into tho lion, and ho sprang upon tho roof of a car, Thoro tho wounded brtito lashed his sides, roared ami, finally becoming furious, sprang again among his onomies. This timo hu tore tho leg of Oeorgo Tucker, a spectator. Tho wounded man was takeu to the Atlautio llouso. Tho lion rushed up Norman street 'aud en tered tho barn of Christopher Hiker, where ho attacked a cow. Mrs. Hiker lieanl tho moans of tho cow and rushed from tho house to see what hud hap pened. Mistaking tho lion for ono of Thomas I'earsnll's fit. Bernard dogs, sho went for the Ling of beasts w ith a club. Tho liou, strange as it may hetmi, released his prey, jumped through tho window and escaped. He ran up Htate street a short distanco aud was then shot by four policemen. Tho dead liou was lying iu the road this morning and boys wore pulling his mane aud tail. TIIK WHITE ELF.I-1IANT UUUNEI). Tho stampede of elephants was tho wildest scone of tho night. Thirty. flvo escaped and four woro burned. Among tho latter was tho sacred while, elephant," ovor which tbo wholo country was interested at BAmnjM'B 'WIHTEB watchmen ran ont of the building shouting, Fire." Ho was struck ou tho head by some unknown man and stunned. His head is badly cut and his faco disfignred. Who his nssailant was is not known. Itanium's agents think thnt this unknown man set tho building on flro and struck the watchman to prevent his giving an alarm. It was several minutes beforo an alarm waa sounded from a wrong box. Afterwards a general alarm was turned in. The firemen wero holploss, as tho big building was in a sheet of fiauio boforo a single hoso was laid. Tho water supply in this portion of tho city is poor. Threo or four feeble streams wero turned upon adjoining buildings. Surrounding tho winter quarters aro hundreds of wooden dwellings. Tho inhabitants climbed upon their housetops to watch tho firo aud pour buckets of water over their roofs. A stiff breeze was blowing, but, fortunatoly, tho greater portion of tho heat and smoke was wafted in a southerly direction across thu open swamp land. TUG FIRE PnKDIOTKD. It has been predicted for years that tho show buildings woulk bum somo day, and this anxiety has been increased by the fear that whenever a flro did occur the wild uni uials would escape. Tho prediction has come truo. Tho buildings were of wood. The car bhedB, tho cars aud the lurgo repair-Khops aro of wood. Tho fences surrounding tho en closuro aro of wood aud within was ttored hay, straw nud all sorts of iutlatuiuablo mate rials. Knowing this, it is not to bo wondered that tho inhabitants wero alarmed. Cries went up that tho animals wero loose. This caused a stntupedo in every direction. Women went into hysterics and fainted. Tho flronicn faced tho flro, and, to their credit, did not flinch from tho seething mass of ronring fiauio and tho howling beasts. Thero was apathy on tho part of tho crowd. No ono would offer assistance, neither did any try to do anything but Uaro. TOniUHK OP THU IIKAHTB.

After tho sacred beast had been shown for two bensons tho management found out that it was not ijuito as whito or quito as sacred us they had supposed when they paid tho Kipg of Hiuiu's agents nearly $200,000 for it. This morning all that remains of this cel ebrated creature, beforo which oircus prietB have bowed down nnd worshipped, is a hugo black pile of elephant meat. Tho legs, trunk and tail aro entirely consumed, Nothing of head remains but tho bones of the tkull and tho tusks, The sacrod beaut was loosoned by ono of tho assistant keepers aud turned with the herd towards tho sido of tho building which had been crushed oUt by tho hugo beasts. Hoforo it reached tho breach it turned buck aud deliberately rushed into tho flames. Tho keeper saw tho animal thrnfching its trunk and bellowing aud iu a fow minutes drop dead. Alice, Sampson and Nero aro also burned. Thoir remains lie among tho blnckcnud tim bers and twibtod irons, a horrihlo sight. ELEI-IIANTS TAKE TO WATEB. As the elephants rushed out among tho crowd ono of their number fell down. It rolled over on Charles Smith. Ho was taken to tho hospital with his leg, one arm and threo ribs broken. Ho cannot live. A few of tho elephants turned towards Sea side Fark, People running towards the tiro met theso elephant, who wero waving their trunks aud trumpotiug. Somo of tho specta tors rushed into houses. Others run ahead of tho brutes, shouting and trying to escape. The elephants w ero too frightened to molest any one aud kept ou their mud career until thu Long Island Sound was reached. They plunged into the water aud sank below its sur face, blowing for air through tlnir upturnul trunks. Six of them remained underwater until daylight, aud it wits with thu greatest ditllculty that their keepers wero able to cotu them back to laud. Others of the elephants ran about town frightening the inhabitants. One elephant rushed intoltayiuoud's lhcry stable on Court street uud sit thu horses plunging about iu their stalls.

AH OLD STORY. Tho sinking of the Scholton is but-tho rep etitlon of on old story. Tho familiar features wero all thoro Itun nlng incautiously in a fog, a failuro on ono of the vessels to display proper lights, n crash in tho dark, terror among passongors and no discipline for tho crow, useless life boats, acts of heroism, marvollous escapes, a long death list. Will it bo tho usual verdiot of nobody to blame THE TELEPHONE MONOPOLY. A royalty of $14 on each 00-cont instru ment. Over 860,000 in uso. That is what pays tho big dividends on the Bell Telophono Company's $100,000,000 of watered stock. A patent tainted with fraud. A broad specification, almost unprocodentod in tho history of patonts, maintained in tho courts by an army of sharp-witted lawyers. That is tho basis of tho monopoly. A block in tho wny of iuvontivo progress. Buying all improvements only to smothor thorn. Crowding out all competition. That is its polioy. Is it strange that tho American publio would hail with delight tho overthrow of thiB greedy monopoly FHffiNU T. BAENOM. Baiwuii has rocelved anothor call from his old acquaintance, tho firo flond. Tho con flagration that made Bridgeport n sceno of terror last night is but a repetition of tho disasters that havo periodically overtaken tho veteran showman. But Baiinuu horetoforo has found himself a vory enterprising Phoenix. That his wings still retain tho vigor to riso triumphantly over tho ashes is tho unanimous hope of young America. Simultaneously with tho nows of tho fire oomos tho announcement thut his agents aro already planning for now struoturos. Coll him PnoiNix T. IIaiwum. Editor Obadt, of tho Atlauta Constitution, is making ringing prohibition spoeohes. His portnor, Mr. Uowell, is simply touring tho English language to shreds in his anti-prohibition harangues. With tho partners bal anced against each othor, the Contlilution, of course, stands for 'alf and 'alf. Tho latest changes in tho rules of tho Civil-Service Commission aro all in tho di rection of a strioter enforcement of the non partisan spirit of tho law. Thoso whom tho Prosidont calls incorrigible spoilsmen may kick, but tho peoplo will upprovo. Tho Democrats havo a majority Of fifteen over tho Itepublicans in tho Ilonso of Itopro sentatives, with four Indcpondonts liable to vote either way.

J., Nov. 21, It is doubtful if poor sewing-girls mid women working for starvation wages in tho great cities know how tho wives and daughters of prosperous farmers keep down their earnings. Tho following facts have coma to tho knowledge of a Would reporter during years of observation as a news-gatherer in Northern New Jorsoy. I'actorics in New York, Brook lyn and Jersey City havo had for a long tlmo agents in different parts of Passaic and Bor gon counties, N. J., and in Rockland County, N. Y. Thoso agents rocoivo every day largo packages of work cut out in pioces ready to bo sowed togothor. They nro distributed among country pooplo by means of horses and wagons for Bovoral miles in ovory direc tion. For this work tho agonts receivo a commission which seems to bo ample to sup port them without other labor. Somo of thoso middlemen have boun caught charging tho country womon for thread which was sunpliod by tho New York shops. Tho priocs paid in tho country aro about on tho samo scnlo as thoso paid in tho cities, with a small deduction for tho additional cost of distribution. Tho sowing-women in tho cities aro slaving for bread. The farmers' girls in tho country sew for pin-money. It gives tho girls a new gown or a bonnet, and enables the wife to get n now carpet for tho parlor or a new piece of furniture. Tnit Wobld reportor has been tho rountlswith somo of thoso country agonts, and in very, vory fow cases is the Bowing given to womon compelled to earn thoir own living. A young woman soon to bo married showod tho roporter a bank account of money earnod In Uifs way sufficient to buy her wedding clothes and furnish her parlor nicely. Anothor woman exhibited a now dress, of line material, which sho suld sho had paid for from hor rccoipts for shop-work. Shirts, jackets and cloth suits for children seemed to be tho work principally sent out to tho country womon. This business has grown to suoh propor tions of late, thot several companies who used to manufacture shirts in Now York City havo removed thoir factories to Peterson, whero thoir goods aro called for by the farmers when thoy are in tho city to attend the mar ket. Any market day a largo number of form wagons may bo soon tiod In front of theso factories, with country poople carrying into tho factories bundles of finished work and bringing out packages of now work. When spokou to by The WonLD reporter many of tho country women, who thought lossly hoap burdens upon the weary baoks of city sowing-girls, expressed rogrot and sym pathy for thoir moro unfortunate competitors, and tnioko in such a manner as to warrant tho belief that if tho subject wero properly ox plained to thorn thoy would cease the com petition which adds to tho labor and hard ships of thoso in whom thoy aro naturally interested and whom thoy should rather ussist than compote against.

HUNTING FOR STOLEN JEWELS. Detective Trrlnc to l!am the Itewnrd Offered by .Matthew Morcan. Tho detectives of tho Central Ofllco and of tho East Thlrty.fi fth street station aro vying with each othor in their efforts to obtain tho $1,000 roword offerod by Matthew Morgnu for tho recovery of 4ho jewels stolon from his wlfo's dressing table at 291 Lexington avenue. Tho gums were hit in rings, bracelets, neck laces and studs, and Mr. Morgan says their aggregate cost ot Tiffany's was from $10,000 to $17,000. Ono ot the articles, a rich neck, laco of diamonds and rubles, was a wedding present to Mrs. Morg n. Tho whole were placed in a heavy stcol box, covered with blue satin, with a patent look, and the box was kept in the top drawer of tho dressing tablo. Tho box and its contents wore last seen by Mrs. Morgan ot 10 o'clock h'nturdny morning, when sho replaced iu tho box several articles which she had worn al the theatre tho pre vious night. The robbery was most proba bly committed somo time during tho day or evening, as Mr. and Mrs. Morgan slept in the room that night, and the theft was dis covered in the forenoon of yesterday. Mr. Morgan said this morning that he was no nearer tho rocovory of tho jewelry thou when bo first notified tho police IIo does not suspect any ono of his tiirce servants, who havo boon with tho family many years. "My theory is," ho said, "that a sneak thief got admission by tho basement door and modo his way upstairs. I expect that ho is holding tho articles for tho reward, and that my wife will soon havo thorn back." An examination of tho sorvants by Capt. llyan's detectives resulted in tho dis covery thot two men who askod alms wero admitted to tho hall basement at different hours on Saturday afternoon, and food was brought them from tho kitchen.

Tho police have descriptions of the men and tho cluo is being followed. Tho difficulty in tho caso is tho unlikeli hood that an outsido thief would know tho location of tho jewel-box or bo ablo to go diroctlv to tho drawer in which it was kept.

Joseph Sweeny, proprietor of Tho Aquarium," a saloon at 227 Third nvonuo, had his placo open early this morning, in vio lation of tho Exciso law, when a well-dressed man accompanied by a woman ontorod and called for drinks. Thoy wore sorved and tho man called for moro. Tho stranger was noisy and troublesomo, and Sweony doolined to givo him any moro liquor. Tnoroupou a quarrol occurred, dur ing which tho stranger drew n revolver and fired. Tho bullet struck Sweony's jaw, glanced off and made its way up tho cheek, lodging beneath tho eye. Then tho stranger ran away. Tho noise of tho shooting attracted a police man of tho EaBt Twenty-second street sta tion into the saloon, '.llo found Sweeny lying on tho floor suffering greatly. An ambulance was called, which carried the woundod man to Dollovuo Hospital. Swoony was much bettor this noon, and was anxious to loavo the hospital, but tho surgeon forbade if. With proper care ho will rooovor, unless in-" llammation sets in. The bullet has not been extracted. It 1b believed that Sweony knows who shot him, but will not toll tho police his namo.

Hobert Lincoln gets a fresh load of French books every time be comes to Washing ton. He likes tho better class of French stories, and does not affect tno tales of Zola or other au thors who deal in questionable morality. Another man who Is fond of fine editions Is Col. John Hay, Lincoln's biographer. Hltt buys a great many French aud German books, an I he never buys anything which Is not In good binding.

The chance are that every book he loom at contains stiinct ilng to Interest htm, and If It does he InvarUWy tucks It under bis .irm and goes on to look ut others. Senator Sherman only glances over the newspa pers and doea not believe In r adlng a book until It Is a year or so old. If Its popularity does not last lonacr than this he says It Is not worth reading, aud life la too short to read everything that Is pub lished. Senator Sherman has a very fine library, and It Is not one of pure finance and politics by any means. He has the finer editions of the atandard authors, and reads the French, though be does not sneak IL Justice Gray Is another reader of French novels, and he devours them at tho rate of from six to teu a week. He haa drawn more than a thousand from the Congressional Library during the paBt live years, and by the way, the reading of tneso Su preme Judges Is full of Interest. They arc all literary men and they all have fino libraries. Judge Stephen J. Field la a man of broad culture, lie has been a book collector all his life and he Is very fond of travels and the classics. Justice Bradley has perhaps the largest private library In Washing ton, with tho exception ot that of Bancroft, and his library relates largely to the law, politics and history. A b cond-hand book dealer tells tnc he Is always looking out for rare law b iok, but that his collection Is so great that he finds few things that are not now In It. Bradley Is a man of hobbles. He will take up a queer question In history ami find out all about It. He has Invented a number of curious calendars for telling the days of the nock and mouth 200 years back and he Is also fond of theology. A number of the Justices carry on Biblical studies, and Stanley Matthews has lust been read ing a book on the question of whether there Is Balvatlon after death for those people who do not have the question presented to thorn In this life. Judge Harlan has been reading during tho past summer Dr. William Taylor's "Scriptural Charac ters," sucn as "Moses, the Lawgiver," "David, the King, and others.

Convenient Illvorco Lam In Hgypt. Alexandria Corrttpontltnci of th Mtlvavle Stnltntl, A wife may be divorced twice ami return to her huaband, but If he divorce her a third tlmo, and with a triple dlvorco declared, and send her away, he cannot live with her again until Bho has been one month married to another man. After tho third divorce the husband must pay the part of the dower which was set aside for the wife before marriage, and ho must support her out or liH house during tho three months In which she may not marry again. If the wife be separated from the man, and not divorced, she receives a weekly allowance from him. A divorced woman may, after divorce, retain her son, quder two years of age, and custom gives the child to the mother till It la seven years old; then the father must claim the son. When a man forfeits an engagement to marry, ho must pay the woman hulf her dower, and Bho Is freo to marry at once, When a wife Is disobedient, the husband may beat her; If Bhe persist In disobedience, he may take her with two witnesses, not his relations, to tho court, and declare ugalu,t her, auu If she does not promise to be obedient thereafter. Is not obliged to feed, lodge or clothe her, but need not divorce her; and if he suspects that she desires to bo divorced In order to remarry, he surely will not. If Bhe con fesses her wrong, und promise obedience, he must at once divorce her or take her home. If a wife doeB not wish to live with her husband, Bhe enters a complaint against him at the court, stating that her family will support her, und makes a demand for reparation. If the women of the sumo harem, or of different ones, quarrel and are complained of to the court, their husbands are punished by the court; but we may be sure that their vicarious correction does nut save tne poor women from chastisement. Tno husband divorces the wife, but the wife cannot divorce the husband. Her Knowledge of Boxing Haved Her. from IA Chicago Tribun;) There Is a club of thirteen young women of the North Side who have a neat gymnasium fitted up, and several of the members have become proficient with the gloves. One of the fair pugilists is a re markably clever boxer and a hard and sharp hitter. Her knowledge of the art of self-defense was of great advantage to her lu a little adventure that happened the other night. She was rcturulng alone from La Salle avenue, where she bad been calling on a friend, at 11 o'clock. On approaching the corner of Clark street she was accosted by a strange man whose appearance proclaimed him to be a rough. The young woman only walked on tho faster for this, but was obliged to confesa after wards she grew nervous. As she crossed Clark street she observed that the villain was following her. After having passed Clark street, In the com parative darkness of a cross street, the villain hur ried forward and accosted her again, at tho same time laying his hand ou her shoulder. He gJt a re sponse this time. Quick ai a llasa she turned, shot out her left and planted her delicately gloved list, sb Arm and true as steel, squaro In the wretch's face. This ataggered hlra, and before he could re cover she had swnng her right upon hlB ear and ho dropped Into the gutter. Then the brave und ovefy boxer gave a shriek and ran homo, nerveless and pale as a ghost, and arrived there In a state of collapse. It was days before sho recovered from her fright. But she still keeps up her boxing. m Perfumed Chest Protectors for Dudes. rYoin a Society Journal, It is going to be simply delightful for a girl to plant her chin on the diamond stud of the society man In the mazes of the dance this winter. Al phonsea's chest haa developed since ho disported In the water at Newport last summer. One of the girls mentioned it to him. Ho turned It off by say ing that he had been rowing with the boys a good deal lately, and nothing threw out a man's chest like that except the landlady of a sailor's boarding-house. He did not disclose that the boys who wear dress suits this winter havo all bought beauti ful little chest protectors of pale blue silk, stuffed with cotton and Bleeped In sachet powder. They give a noble frontage to the rather flat yonng man of the period.

It is in his powor to A nominato n Minislcre d'Affaires for carrying that on tho business of tho country, and none of vrhic his Ministors need necessarily bo members of brid either houso of legislature, but the Chamber Hut of Deputies would, of courso, hnvo tho last Ann word in granting or refusing supplies.

M. Ilouvior opposed imuipdiato interpellation on tho ground that a.,j, it would be advisable, to wait until the con- A vorbion of the four and a half per cents, had been fully carried out. Tho operation would ra be concluded on Wednesday, and on tho fol- A lowing day ho would bo at M. Olcinouccau's Jni: service. M. ltouvier added significantly that i188, if a majority was wanted to get rid of tho J Ministry it could attain itti object without in- rf I dulging in very long discussion. It could 9J show its sentiments by tho cboico of it day ri for interpellation, but the Government could tno not accept an eurliur dnto than Thursday.

Ho profesbes to beliovo that Wilson's iunoceuco will bo demonstrated conclusively, and his son- te in-law on his bido will hold his head ?j high. Yet, thoso who contributed to yester- rj day'.H overthrow of tho Cabinet did so under tho linn conviction that n Ministerial crisis V must eventually foreo tho President to retire. ri1 M. Grevy's first thought was of his old JJ crony, M. do Froycinet. Tho little white mouse would not desert him in his trouble. p Then if M. Do Froycinet proved recalcitrant ho could send for M. Goblet, and if he, too, failed him, as ho probably would, ho could find somo othor Premier. I hear that M. Do Froyciuot's friends aro opposed strongly to his resuming tho reins of ofllco at this juncture, and he is not tho man to risk his future ovon for les beaux yeux of his old ally. THE LATEST ItUMOli. Lato this aftornoon rumor was current in tho chamber that M. Grevy had determined on consulting en Hoc the Presidents of tho Senate and Chamber; M. Olemenceau, M, Rouvior, M. do Froycinet, M. Jules Ferry, M, Henri Brissou, Mt Ducloro and others as to whether he ought or ought not to retain his post, it was added that if it was decided that Grovy could remain at the Elyseo the Prosidont would appoint u statesman solectod by his advisers to form a now Cabinet. If Grovy woro to take such a step as that with which tho report credited him this afternoon, it would iudicato that ho was at length nlivo to tho giavity of his position I hear, howover, that thero was no founda tion for the rumor that tho President persibts in his determination to remain at tho Elyseo and that this evening M. Goblet was sent for to confer with him. Nihilists Arrested In IIiinsIo. S fSrKCIAL CAULK to TUC WOBLD.1 London, Nov. 21.

IS WHY HE LEFT THE BOX. An Incident of a Hull name Between the llilflalo and l'rovidence Team. Tho baseball convention Just ended at the Fifth Avcnuo brought out many good stories of tho diamond, which woro told in odd corners whilo tho Leaguo committee and the Brothorhood representatives wero enjoying their conferenco behind closed doors. Among tho stories related was ono about "Jiinmio" Galvin, over which Harry Wright and a group of League notables laughed heartily and woll. Tho incident happened at Buffalo, whero tho Providence team wero pitted against tho homo players. Galvin pitched for tbo Bisons and the ball was hit four times in its first few starts towards tho catcher. Four suo eesBivo errors for tho Buffalo infield followed theso four taps on tho spbero and four Provi dence, men got unearned bases. Gravoly, then, "Jimmio" laid tho ball down in his pitcher's box, beckoned to tho change pitcher to come in from right field, and ho himself started out. Whero aro you going?" roared tho cap tain.

Of course, this starring notlco comes right on top of his colossal and gratuitous advertise ment, and in order that the public shall not havo had time to forgot him, Mr. Hilliard, it is said, is looking out for a Now York thea tro in which to open noxt mouth. It was ro portod on Saturday that Ed Morris, tho Irish comedian, at present with Conrad tho Oorsuir," at tho Bijou, will introduce tho Bllpper kissing cpisodo in tho bnrlesquo during tho coming week, and has already ar ranged with a woll-known shoemaker to man ufacture a whito slipper about two feet long to fill tho rdlo of tho dainty littlo articlo whicli Mr. Hilliard is accusod of kissing. Whethor Mr. Hilliard will enjoin Morris is not known. Perhaps tho enterprising Ilob ert has copyrighted tho cpisodo, in wbloh case Mr. Morris had better look out for him self. Mr. Hilliard wants all tho advertiso. mont ho can get and ho sadly needs it. Arrangements aro being mado for tbo pres entation of a burlesquo on "Faubt," tho load ing part to bo playod by Alfrod S. Phillips, who has had considerablo oxporionco as an actor in the laBt twolve or fifteen years, and is now in Now York for tho purpose of closely studying Honry Irving at tho Star Theatro. It is thought that tho burlebque will bo given in this city early in January, after which it will bo taken to Boston, Chicago and Phila delphia. Tho burlesque was written sixteen years ago by Bobert Craig, a comedian, and fifteen years ago was produced uudor tho title of Faust and Marguerite," with Miss Fanny Davonport as Marguorito. Mr. Phillips will givo imitations of Wilson Barrett in Olito nnd Honry Irving. Ho is anxious to socuro Miss Fay Templcton to play Faust and Amelia Summorville for Marguerite Bo hcarsnlswill begin very Bbortly undor the diroction of William 0. Daly. Tho backer of the enterprise is said to be a Philadelphia broker named Stcrott. About fifty poople will bo in tho cast. Thoro is somo talk of the bnrlesquo boing given at tho Fifth Avenuo Thoatro, but that is by no moans euro. si Si Miss Amolin Summervillo had nn offer to go to London to play in tho Christmas panto mime at the Gaicty.'l hentro, for sixtoon weoks. Miss Summorvillo wanted to go, but Manager ltico, to whom she is under contract, was not willing to part with hor, it is said. "Falken btein" is tho name of tbo pantomime in which Miss Summorville will not play. si Tho failure of "She" in Philadelphia, news of which was published this morniug, was by no means an unoxpectod ovent lu this city. The play was put on without much preparation, and effoots and woirdnesses wore utterly disregarded. Tho oponing night in Philadelphia must, according to nil uo counts, havo been yory funny. Tho pretty nobe of tho witch fell off at a thrilling mo. mont, aud the calcium-lights woro, of course, thrown upon her whilo noseless. Tho audi ouco roared, and whou an audience roars at tbo wrong time, a pluy is in a pretty bad way. w When tho Academy of Mubic falls into thn hands of its now lessees, E. O. Oilmora and Eugono Tompkins, on Nov. 28, Alexander 0. OoniBtock will probably fill tho plaoo of John Donnelly as acting manager. The Arabian Nights will follow Tho Dark Soorct." Exactly why Tho Arabian Nights," which couldn't fill tho Standard Theutro, should bo taken to tho Acadomy is not easy to under stand. It is explained, howover, by tho fact that the burlosquo did not have a good show at the Standard, which is not considered a lucky theatro. After the burlesque the Booth-Barrott Company will oooupy tho Acadomy. Si Miss Carrio Knight will bo seen to-night in "Nancy and Company," in Harlem, with Arthur Bolton's compuny, Harlem is rather too far to go for un evening's amusement. but AugiiBtin Duly will not allow Mr. Behuu to produce his plays at any othor theatro in this oity. Mr. ltelian would bo allowed full sway in the Bowery, but Daly's pluya would hardly bo understood in that region. Miss Sallio asks for me, tell her that I havo gone to beo thut poor sick woman in tho vil lage." Tbo instant tho servant's steps died away in the distance, Katlo sprung to tho door and locked it, even ndonting tho precaution of hanging an apron upon tho knob, that no eyo might by any chanco penetrato her secret by means of tho koyholo. Then sho danced across tho room, and throwing open u half unpacked trunk, drew therefrom severul articles which seemed strangely out of place amidst tho tasteful, oxpensjivo garments by which thoy wore surrounded. Ouo by one, Kntio held them up beforo her, a low musical laugh rippling from her lips as sho looked upon them. A btrango collection, in sooth, to form it part of a fashionable young lady's wardrobe. An old plaid calico bonnet, a long, loose green.aud-white plaid dress of the bamo ma terial; an old pair of shoes, much larger tliuit necessary; a pair of bluo spectacles, ragged gloves, uud, more incongruous, if possible, than all theso, n red elouk covered with sprawling yellow figures, buch as would cause the eyes of a genuine young gypsy woman to sparkle with delight. Ten minutes later, our mischievous friend stood beforo the mirror, fully equipped in this strange cobtume, save that her beautiful curls yet dropped over tbo laughing fneo, whoso clear brunctto was momentarily becoming darker and redder under tho skilful manipulations of her busy lingers. Now, then, I will throw my largo mautlo over this dress, tuck tho bonnot under my unn, nnd with my hat on, no one who may chanco to meet mo will suspect that I am not in my usual costume. I told no untruth whon I left word that I was going to tho vil lage I am going thero, after I have told those two foolish persons on tho porch yon der tbeir fortunes." i "Thero, Miss Sallio," exclaimed Will Davis, thero comes one of tho very tribe of Gypsies that I havo been telling yon of.

I sir ci At, coKiiisroniirxcr. or Ttt wanLn.l laONiiai, Nov. 7. During a recent Holiday trip I went through ltelglum anil Holland. Among tho most Interesting places tbst I visited was Ibe city of Antwerp. T bis city Is chiefly Interesting on ac count of Its modern development. Wo have been taught to bcllevo In the UnltsiJ bfatct that there Is no entcrirlse or pu-n In any of the Kuropeait.cltles. Antwerp Is certainly an exception to the average Kuropeau rnle. It Is growing to-day ns rapidly as uny Western town. Somo of Its suburbs look very much like those of hlc.igo. lllock after block of houses aro going up In various directions. It Is the shipping Interest which Is making Antwerp. It has a beautiful harbor, where a number of great steamship lines discharges freight and passengers fur all parti of Luiope. Tbo new growth of this city Is most remarkable, for tho reason thst cities rarely die and como to llfo again. Antwerp In the fifteenth century u us ono of the most powerful snd prosperous cities In l.uroi c. It hud tbon a popula tion of one hundred uud seventy-odd thousand. It was the home of ilui.nu, Vuli Dyck and the great est painters of any Iiuu. It lell oir from that time through tho process of decay until Ihopipu lallou at tho bciiliiuina ot this leutury Wus douu to 4. DUD. Now Ills back again to thu population that it bad la the fifteiiith oeuttiry, when It was at tno height of Its prosperity. Ha growth now Is solid. There la plenty of money In the town. The pooplo all seem to h ive wotk. There are no begjurs of uny account and absolutely no distress auun us yon see everywhere In Knglund. In one of the stores I talked with uelclk who had been over to America, but ho found It too hard to gel uloug there uud came back to Autwori, where lie found tho pay bettor and work easier to get than with us.

Antwerp promises in the future to be again a greut art centre. It bus to-aay ono of tbe finest art schools In Europe. Tho town Is bo quiet und bo clean and bo beallhlul that studonts would cer tainly bo nt)e to do more work here than In the crowded quarters of Paris. '1 ho modern Ilelglau artists I think aro better than the modern french men. They lmve equal .kill and technique aud put mure Ideas and brms into their pictures.

Daring my stay lu Antwerp I saw a parade of 10,OiiU llclgtan troops. Theso aro tho troops which belong tu the forts extending around this tortlflcd town. The men aro small and vory care less lu their dress They marcb In a very slouch ing wuy. They do not appear as well as our coun try militia. They do not look like so.dlers. I do not billovo that 10,000 of them would stand up against the charge ot one determined Uerman regi ment. Tho Hclglaiti pride themselves very much upon tho formications ubout Aulwcrp. Tho city la entirely inclosed by theso fortifications. They aro strong If dclcudcd by the right kind of men; but with tho lloiglau soldiers benlnd tbem 1 do not think that it would bo dlmum for any modorn army of the great powers to take Antwerp, llut tho Importance ol Antwerp as a uilltiury outpost lo protect tno neutrality of tho llelulau country mis been gruatiyovcrr.iti d. 1 luuc lit en told by mili tary men that Antwerp is so much uut of tho "ay tnui ihe (icnuuus cuuld inarcn around It Ihrougu ltelglum Into Prance without finding thu fortlllo, tlons the loast di greu lu tcclr way.

Iltnitr .V.m-., A prominent Larimer sireet business man said to a AVirs reKrter yesterday afternoon, as he pointed to a rather handsoiuo looking, slender gentleman who was passing: "Do yon see that man? Look at nlm well, aud notice tho silk mufficr which he wears about his neck. There Is a stury connected with that.'' The reporter observed thu man more closely, and noticed that, ultbough at a glance be would be called handsome, yet a close scru.lny would reveal ncircnoru look not usually found at the age of thirty. hlowly tho subject tor a story Biuntertd by and pufcscd around the coruer of Sixteenth street.

Thootbcr day, however, tho n hole thing cumo out, and t heard such a story told In such n way as I never want to hear again. And now when I occasionally see blm on ihei-'rect 1 do not wonder at his serious face, hut marvel that his hair should not have been turued white by his terrible experience. "He came into the store nnd talked with me npon a variety of subject-. Including, of course, tho elictlon.

Wnen I was about twenty years old I left New Hampshire, my nutue State, uud catnu West with the idea of scouring ofurtuue In the mines. That was niout leu years ago. At that time, to my eyes, Montana offered the best field to a young man from tbu Stitca ond In the direction of that hl.ito I turned my ficc. I worked my Way well up Into the northeusicrn part and was beginning to feel Just a llttlo blue, although I would not confess It to myself. I had not found a gold initio at tho first Jump, aa I fully ami confidently expected, ami Instead nf Jingling dollars in my pocket, I got down to rubbing dimes together, anil even their tntislo sounded sweet, tor before long I was whack ing burros for a place to Bleep and something to eat. "'Finally I workod my way to a little town away up In the corner of the State, and, by making plenty ut friends uud hard work, I began lo sec daylight through my dlitlcultles.

A rope was produced, one eud plo ed around my neck, and the other end torown over the branch of a tree. I was then asked to make ii confiBidoti. Itoldthem briefly that I hud nothing to confess, and that It the? could Ond the tail miner with whom I had slept the night pre vious ho would declare my Innocence. Thcyunlv laughed at ine. nud I realized that I was to die. I was filled with Bitch a fecllna ot horrjir tnat my legs seemed about- to give way beneath their weight, und two men assisted me.

I trio I to speak but could not utter a sound. I wiib Hpeuchless. Upon a slip of paper I asked thot my father und mother bo notified uf my death, uud wrote the address. Altera brief con sultation I was pulled up again, and as my eyei e loscd It seemed aa though I had looked upon earth for ttio lust time. At first I suffered Intense pain, then a feeling of diizlneBs cumo over me. I knew of nothing after that until I found myself lying on the ground, while tho form of a man bout over tuo lu tue gathering darkness, aud water was dashed In mv face. Thu revival was one of pain, uud Just then I would rather have been left to die. "I waB taken ton house, now I do not know, and put tu bed. My throat pained mo and I could not tulk. I remained there fur twenty-four hours, when the man who cut mn down come in and said they had found thu tall miner I had slept with, and they knew I was innocent. He had cut mu down ou his own respouilblltty, ho said, bul now he could tell tho boys, and he did. Tue.v came to the cabin with u rush, aud some of them cried for Joy when ihey found I was alive.
