For six days of the week the Echslda Inn wears this unlet, peaceful as pect. Bat ca Saturdays life begins to moTS lit s qu'eker gait.

This was the last tho people in the hotel heard of the burglars and the last that the po llen of South Norwalk an Urldgepurt hae heard of them up to date. Ther disappeared, leaving behind the blasted safe, the uncon scious, Hartlgan, and the steel chlel. As soon as they entered the small room the men cut the wires, both the lm aland longdistance telephone, and them was no means of calling for assistance ln that way. So a committee of fiesta was formed and called at Proprietor rnlpps's cottage adjoining the hotel to Inform him of wht hsd happened. Mr. Thlpra was awakened and started toward the hotel. When ho got to the plana the news reached him that evervthlng ln the hotel safe had been taken. This was too much, and ho fell tn a faint on the piazza. It, took some time to revive him. and when he had come to himself and thought that a message might be sent from a neigh bor s telephone nearly three-auartsrs of an hour had passed. He fired a shot near ths stable In order to wake up tht men employees, but ths burglars had already a start of nearly an hour. The men took everything ln the safe. Ths amount they got ln money amounted to about 1,300. Four hundred dollars belonged to Mr, La Shelle, (78 represented the receipts from the charity performance, anc more than 100 was the wages! of tenants which Imd been deposited there for safety; the rest of It belonged tn Mr. Phtpps, but $80 of whst was taken from hlra was ln checks. The Superintendent o the Bridgeport police and a forctt of men started down towaid Green's Farms to head oil the men as soon as the alarm was received: tel.grsms were sent to tho New York police and the police at Nor walk, while men wero stationed along the beach to prevent the robbers escaping ln boats: but It Is believed that rt least two of them came on horseback. ar the spot at which they were first seen by Watchman Har tlgan, the road was found to have been torn up as though by the hoofs of horses that had been kept standing there for some time. At tl o'clock It was decided there was no chance of arresting tha men Immediately. Mr. 1'hlpns, the proprietor ot the hotel, said that he han no reason to believe that ther were the same men who had robbed ths hotel two weeks ago at Hoton IMlnt. "I am perfectlr certain," he told Trig Sew reporter, "that there was somepody In tht gong who knew enough about the hotel to know that Sunday night was the best time to undertake the robbery. Who lt was. I have no Idea. I have not discharged any of ny em- Slayees this year, and the police have no more nowledge tf who tha men may be than I have." After the men had escaped there was no sleep for the gueats of the hotel. They dressed ana came down stairs to talk over the robbery. The only practical result to most of them was the loss of several hours' sleep and a phenom enallv good appetite for breakfast. Mr. Phlnns hod It served an hour ahead of time, and they stopped talking about the robbery long enough to eat, but they were at tha robbery again soon after breakfast. They talked about lt all of to-day on tha lawn and on the piazzas, where piquet and embroidery were for the first time at a discount. BEPOBTBI) BIBD3JZ.L AH DEAD. Mlx-si sst Qotmrvewr sToesittmt Body (teat to Hla Uo-ao aa til a. The Oouvsrneur Hospital authorities mads a serious blunder Tuesday night of last week. when they officially declared dead a patient who was oa tha nigh road to recovery. The pa tient was Charles Blrdsall, and he Uvea with his tlstsr and her husband at South Third and Berry streets. Wllliamshurga. He was em ployed aa a driver by D. McNamara. a dealer ln grain at S3 Pitt street. On Tuesday ha was prostrated by the heat while delivering groin to Solomon Alter of 11 Montgomery street, and was removed to Oouvsrneur Hospital uncon scious. That same night Mr. McN'amara heard of his misfortune and sent a man around to ths hospital to find out how ha was getting along. A doctor at tha hospital told the messenger that Blrdsaii was dead, and later ths death was officially given out and appear ed,. la JYffiftCii, day morning's papers. Taere was grist tn Blrdtall's noms when Mr. McXamara sent word of the man's death, and arrangements were made at once to have tha body sent to Wllliamsbursh. Friends, relatives. and neighbors gathered In the nousa, and an undertaker was hired to take charge ot tha body as soon as It arrived. The body of ice dead man waa sent over on Wednesday, but as soon as tha sheet ln which It was wrapped was removed tt was seen that It was not Blrdsall's body. Messengers were hur ried over to the hospital to find out what It all meant, and whet; they got there they learned to their great joy that a mistake bad been made, and that Blrdsaii was not dead. Investigation by the hospital authorities showed that there bad been a mizup of names, and that the dead man had been registered as Blrdsall. Blrdsall waa well enough yesterday morning to return to his home in YVUIlamsburgh. Ha ate a good meal on bis arrival last evening, and received tha congratulations of his fr ends, many of whom had not learned tnat he was yet In tha land or the living. He would not discuss the mistake, but his sister, Mrs. SUinhardt, said: "I cannot understand how the mistake was made, nor have I lrarned the name of the victim of the heat supposed to have been my brother I only know that wa have bin put to conquer able exDense, and believe tha: the hospital au. thorlties should reimburse us." aOOBttrXLT'B BID FOR COPS.

Mr. and Mrs, William Jennings Bryan reached Upper Red Hook to day and have settled down for a qulst week at the horns nt E. C. Perrlne. Mrs, Perrlna waa onea Mrs. Bryan's school teacher. Her husband Is the leading Republican of the Tillage, Post master, and storekeeper. He lives In an unpre tentious but comfortable frame house adjoining his store. Tha Popocratlo candidate could hardly hava ohosen a better place to rest before the campaign. The village Is one of but a few hundred Inhabitants and lt six miles from the railroad station at Barry town. During the evening Mr. Brran mst tha press representatives. Whsn asked whether hs would answer Bourke Cockran's spetch to-morrow night, hs said: "Mr. Cockran and I discussed the silver ques tion and the Income tax Question In Congress. If he advances any new arguments ther can go to the country along with my speech ot last week. I shall not return to New York until the latter part ot September, when I expect to speak briefly In Brooklrn on my way to New England, and In New York on my return from New Eng land." Mr. Bryan was questioned regarding Mr. Thurston's demand that he reply to the charge made by a Chicago newspaper that he had been hired by the silver mine-owners to ttump the country In their Interest, lie said that this storv bad been denied several times, and that a denial would again be made at any early date. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan left John Brtsben Walker's house at Irvlngton at 0 o'clock. Mr. Sewall started for New York an hour earlier, accompanied by Mr. Walker. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan took the 0:11 train from Irvlngton. There was nobody except Mr. Walker at the train to see them off. Ther left the train at Yonkcrs. where a crowd ot about flftr men waited In the station to greet them. As soon as the crowd caught tight of the Boy Orator the men ran for him and surrounded him. Then began a scramble to thake his hand. Mr. Bryan and his wife submitted with good grace, and shook hands with everybody that cams their way. Then soms one asked them for their auto graphs, and they were soon distributing them. The crowd Increased aa the candidate, his wife, his secretary, Mr. Cutwrlgnt, and Mr. Walker began to make their way toward the steamboat dock. The Boy Orator, ln his broad pearl-colored bat, his light sack coat, and low-cut vest. showing a great exnanse of linen, lean unusual figure. Every one recognized him at once, and by the lime the dock was reached the crowd had increased to several hundred. The steam boat Albany was late: In the Intervening time the Bryant distributed autograph. The crowd cheered when they stepped over the gangplank, and a few ot the passengers on the upper deck of the Altaar Joined In. It was evident, how ever, that ths people had gathered more from curiosity than from any enthusiasm for the candidate. General Manager Oleott of the company met ih Bryans and escorted them to the parlor state rooms that were set aside for them. Mr. Oleott explained that the company bad declined to -sloa-Uke boat allrvlnglaa tn take thsm on there because ot the lack of docking facilities and the danger of running a small boat alongside the steamer In a nlgb wind at high tide, some one tnggeated mat Mr. Bryan hold a reception. Wbo mada the augreitlon It not known, but he loet no time tn following It. With his wife ha took n.t place In the cabin, and a number of passengers filed by him end shook hands with him and his wife. About J00 persons. UO per rant, of wham were women, made use of this opportunity to meet the Popocrstic candidate. Among the crowd was a small bor neatlr clad ln a blue sailor suit. He seamed to hesitate about holding out his hand to Mr. Brran. who speedily realized the cause, for be spied a Mc Klnler button In the lapel ot the boy's coal. I do not think I ought to ahaka handa with you." laughed the Bor Orator. Tha bor tailor's father teemed greatlr perturbed. "ou tea. Mr. Bryan." ha tUmmerad. "a lit tle girl gave It to him, and be has to wear it." "It ain't so," ytlled the boy sailer. "1 bought It myself." "Then I'll siva you another and make rou a bimetalllst." tald the Bor Orator, and no reached down into hit pocket and drew forth a Hrran button, which he fattened tn the lad's collar. The reception took about half an hour, and then Mr. and Mrs. Bryan went to the pilot house, where they watched the tcenerr along the river. There waa not much Popocratlo tan llment on tha boat. The people stared at the candidate, but few were heard to ezpress any alm ration of the principles for which he stands. The bor at the news stand reported that be sold sixteen McKlmey buttons, and not a single Bryan badge. 1 he Bor Orator and hi wife were at dinner with Hugh J. Brady, chair man of the Democrallo Central Committee of Be Louis, whom they met on lb boat. When Newburgh was reached about J00 men had assembled on the dock there. Ther thought that a vansrable smooth-faced man wbo was facing the dock was he whom tbr sought and they began to cheer him lustily. He bowed graciously. Down in ih dining room the Bor Orator heard th cheers and sprang from the table and ran up on deck and bowed repeatedly. When the crowd found the right inn they gave him a few (table hurrahs About 700 people were awaiting Bryan at Poughkeeosle when the boat reached the dock at 1 15 o clock, but that they were drawn there largely by cnrloitr was evident from the weakness of the demonstration. A mob surrounded Mr and .Mrs Bryan a they got off tne lioat. Ther was more handshaking and distribution of autographs. A pullcaman took chrKe of the Boy Orator and bis wife and made way for them to the station. block dls. tant About 400 men and boys followed at their heels. Cries of "Mpeechl" "bpeechl" be- f:an to mm from tha crou d. It wss too tempi ng for the Bor Orator. II forgot all his solemn declarations that he would nut open hi mouth while In this Htata at this time, and, Iravlng his wife In th walling room, mounted a barrel out side and add ressefl the crowd. 11 saldi "1'ilMw Citizen- I am here fur a rest, and I dlil not aipei t to make a speech, but I probably shall not you again, and I shall lake this oppnrtnn ty to say a few word to you I am very ulnd to see you all.

About twenty upper lied Hook peo. pie had driven to the station, and theyoheered the Bryans as they got off the train. Mr. Perrlne hurried his friends to a carriage, and, followed by a dozen other rural traps, started for bis home. Bed Hook, a long straggling village through which they pasted, was In picnic at tire, but not bubbling over Willi enthusiasm. A few houses were decorated with flags. The porches were filled with people, who watched the carriages as tbry rattled br. but only one or two cheers were heard for the Popocratlo leader. "You see, tbls Itn't a silver town," explained a citizen. We're glad to have Brian come our way, and the people around here will give blm a hearty reception, but there are not many who will vote for him." The peon! ot upper Red Hook wero out, too. when the Perrlnet drove up to their home with their guests. There wet tome hatidthnklnt;, a little cheering, and then the village resumedlta humdrum life, and the Popocrntlo candidate fell Into Its quiet ways. At H o'clock, by Invita tion of Mr. Perrlne, about 300 residents of the villas and the turroubdlng country assembled at the Perrlne home and were Introduced to the Bor Orator. Jacob Ellstfer made a formal speech welcoming Mr. Brran tothe village. Mr, Bryan replied briefly, thanking all tor their hospitality. During the evening the local bend played on the lawn Tn front of the house. A Mr. Bryan's speech follows: "Mil.

A large Nationalist dem onstration In favor of granting amnesty to all Irish political prltonsrs took place here to day, and waa the cause of serious riot ing. An Immtntt procession of Nationalists marchsd through tht strseti of the city and proceeded to Ilannattoun. a suburb ot Belfast, headed by bands of music and display ing numerous banners bearing Inscriptions In dicating the purpose of the movement. The streets were lined with spectators, who hooted, groaned, and Jeered the processionist, and finally threw a few stones at the paraders. Some of tbe paraders were armed with spears, and these men made an attack upon their tor mentors, despite the efforts of the police, who were out ln full force, to prevent them. A. fierce fight entued, and the police mada sev eral charges with drawn batons upon tha combatants, as the result of which there were a great number of broken heads. A dozsn or more of the rioters on both sldss wsre taken to the hospital after order was restored. All of thlt occurred before noon. Later the city magtttrates held a meeting and Ordered that the troops be In readiness tn put down the disturbances which tt was feared would occur when the paraders returned from Hannaatoun ln the evening. Every preparation was aooordlngly made to suppress any attempt at rioting, and for a time the centre of tbe city to which the dltburbancee of the morning were confined was quiet, al though the streets were alive with excited people. The procession returned to Bslfast ln the evening, when It was soon seen that the mis givings ot the authorities were not unfounded. As the procession approached the city the great est excitement prevailed. A number of opposition mobs had gathered along ths Intended routeot the procession on Its return, with the object of making an attack upon the paraders, and to prevent rioting ths police barred the route which had been laid out for the return march of the procession and turned the parade oft Into another street. In the mean time a heavy rain began falling, but this bad not the tllgbiett effect ln diminishing the size of the crowds which tnronged th streets, nor ln allay ing tbe exoltement of the people. The orowd was not aware of tbe exaet route taken by the paraders until It, was too late to make an attack upon them, and tbe procession broke up without further fighting. Tbe outlook, however, continued to be men acing until quite a late hour, but despite tbe threats that were mad there was no further dlsordsr. The rain continued to tall heavily, and this Dually had the effect of ksausing the mob to dltperte. The Incident called to mind the serious trou bles between the Catholics and Orangemen that occurred some years ago, when a number of persons were killed by the troops who had been called out to restore order. noBSBtrmppED ix tub street.

It Is becoming more apparent every day that Hi. Hanna will put tn most of his heavy work In the States of Illinois. Indiana, Wiscon sin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Michigan. Already oand-tnocey literature by tbe ton Is being sent out from the Chicago branch of Re publican National Headquarters. The Hon.

He added "Ihave not visited Indiana or Illinois, but I have friends In those Sutes who give me th situation, and Indiana will ctve. In my estima tion, a strong majority fcr McKlnley.

The Republicans of New York county are to I hold their prlmarle to-day to elect delegates to an Atsemoly district Convention which wul select delrgates to the Slate Convent.oa to be held In Saratoga on Aug. 25. to the county Con. ventlon and to the Congress Convention. The local district Conventions will be held on Ace. 21. It Is already pre dicted that the Piatt men wl.I have all but about 35 of th 135 delegates to tbeState Convention to be sent from New York countr. There is friction la half a dozen of the dlstrfu. the arre which has been going on ror several years. It comes from the old factional adversa ries of Mr. Piatt and Is Irreconcilable. After the closest scrutiny the estitiate Is tbat the Piatt men will certainly havn 000 of the TSO i delegates In tbe Saratoga Convent:- I Naturally, a the day approaches for tbe Con vention the gossip over the candidate tor Gov ernor Increases. Every effort by Mr. Plait's friends has been made to av.ertain the came of the candidate he most favors. All tbat he will say Is tbat alt of tbe candidates ar eood Re I nubllcais and worths of the highest office In the Sute. He will not declare in favor of any candi dal uattl he has looked over the ground after he reaches Saratoga. After he makes a decision It is a dollar to a cruller that the man he favors will get the nomination. There has been m red-headed talk about a I colt If a Piatt man 1. nominated for Governor. There Is little danger that thu will happen. To boll a Gubernatorial candidate Just b-cause he happens to be an organization Republican would 1 merely leave the boilers ouuide the breast- works forever. As the situation now It, i It would be atwoisu destruction to them: to bolt In a Presidential year would onlr end tn i their complete discomfiture. But the talk about t a bolt doe. not come from re.ponsble sources. I Nobody pays any attention to Mllholland now. adays. Even the ancient enemies of Mr. Piatt I In tbe I nlon League Club will have nothing to do with him. He is not considered of enough conseae.nce In Republican circles to waste half i a dozen lines over. He has demonstrated that he bas been actuated by personal motive. The anti-Plait Republicans In the Sute have said openly that the only way to defeat Mr. Piatt Is lo defeat him within the party. There are exceptions. of course, and yet the Republicans, who are ready to co all lengths, do no; propose lo take extreme steps In a Preeldentlal rear. It looks every day as If tbe contest "for Gov- ernor had narrowed cowa between Aldrldge of Monroe. WadsworTh of Livingston, and Fish of Putnam counties. Eve-y now and then you bear something to the erfect that possibly the old ticket of Morton aad saxton wllj l.. re nominated at Saratoga. Gov Morton, however, has repeatedly declared that he cannot beacaa- i eld ale for renomlnatlon. i It was poln'ed out vesterday by the friends of the candidates who have been hustling for dele- gates that Gov. Morton could not change his views at ibis late day. for the reason that the I delegates e.ectcd in mxny instances ar sledged to their respective favorite. In view of tnls sl'uatioa It was said that it I would be necessary for Gov. Morton to come out with a flat declaration that he desired a re nomlnatton. and in tbai case there is little doubt that all nf the candidates would with draw in bis favor, for the reaon that inasmuch i as the -tate t cket of 1&W3 was renominated last sear, a renomlnatlon could not be refused to Gov. Morion. Hut. as already said, he has refused point blank, a number of times aad said that he was u t a cad date, and w.th this clearly e.lab- lished Wadsworth. Aldr rtge. Fish, and a,t the others have gone on their way corralling dele-gates. GltOCCn JtCSBT'S OIUTBCT Z.EBBOX. Tba sr1ee that Prevailed When Cell Waa at a Pr-easlaau Fn.Awa-i.rv. N. J.. Aug. IT.

Tbelr contracts are wa to paper as far as any Tillage authority goes, and their nates of no avail except as binding themselves Itidl. Tldnallr, for since ten rrs ago there hasn't been a legal village election In Uldgefleld Park. This Is universally admitted. 1 he elections are what Is legally known a bastard eloctlons un der an Incomplete act of legislation. The Boanl nas no legal right to act or even to exist, and therefore the cltlxen can't Impeach the members for aots legally told. A decision ot the proper court ronld sweep the whole- flimsy shadow of a Tillage Government out of exist. ence.

Whether the new men hired by the Adams Express Company to replace the strikers are competent or not, there was little doubt yet terdy of the ability of the company to secure all the men they want. The strikers declare hat it requires special knowledge and training for the business and apparently hope that this may lead the company to make concessions and take them back. As there Is no questlaa of wages or boars of work in the strike, the only concessions the company could make would be to take back the discharged men who belungvd to the organization of the employees. Then It would have to discharge all the new men to make room for the strikers. X line of nearly SOO men seeking employment formed t the offices at .100 Canal street yesterday forenoon about 11 o'olock. Tha majority ap peared to be clerks, porter, and men of va rious trades, who were out of work. Presi dent Weir eald yesterday afternoon: "Every wagon Is running, every place Is filled, and we have a reserve force of seventy Bye men in case of emergencies to-morrow. as tar as we are concerned, there might aa well 3 no strike. I am sorry for the strikers. Tbey are reaoectable men. and have behaved quleti) during the strike, but they took a wrong position. The men who were discharged were discharged for good reason, not for be longing to aa association. We have nothing to do with any association."

The strikers fathered in and around Led wilh's Hall, Forty.nfth street and Th.rd ave nue, and t.ow and then sent out pickets to fled out what was going on and to dissuade non-union men from working. They locked depressed, but euparently tried to be hopeful and talked of a possible settlement by arbi tration, Jonn Oliver. lresldent of the Ori ent Association, to which the New York ex pressmen belong, said: "I believe the company will come to term. We have specially enjoined the strikers to oe orderly. Our ploketa have Induced a great many of the green men to quit work by slm- Sly telling them tne state ot affair. They are reported that only six double and four single teams left the Forty-ninth street depot Ibis morning. I made a round of the routes myself this morning and found that the ship pers are not anxious to back up the company." The striking employees In Jersey City held a frolonged session in their headquarters In rankltn Hall last night. They recrlted reports from the pickets who hail been on duty and also from the committee which bad been sent to dissuade new men from coming to work. A communication was reeelsed from Charles L.

A similar of fer had been received earlier In the day from the New Jersey Board. Both offers were laid over. Thirty-seven doable wagons and eight single wagons were sent out from the Montgomery street stables yesterday morning In charge of new drivers and helpers, who are said to have been brought from tbe east side In this city, borne of them, It Is said, ere men who had been discharged by the company for good cause. Many of tbem were well dressed and lucked more like clerks than driver. The police, re serves were stationed at points along the route from the stable to the pier, but their services were not needed. A number of employees from Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington ar rived In Jersey City yesterday, and the majority of them went to work, but many of them said that they would re-len their positions rather than become "scabs." The committees sent to soma of the company's patrons to ask their mural uppnrt reported that they had received a great deal of eucourage- Agent Temple, at the Pennsylvania Railroad depot, said that everything was working smoothly.

It Is only a sample of more tban ilia which I have received sines, I first met him. That was when I waa In charge of tbe Adams display of chewing gum In the window of a Brooklyn dry goods store. I had been employed to do tbe disappearing illusion trick, which Mrs. Herrmann has been doing for years. Mr. Adama rame Into tbe store one day and spoke to me.

"Phlnlng" for doer Is, at this season of the yrar, one of the principal Industries of the In habitants of the northern Michigan peninsula. Although tbe law says tbls Is the "close" sea son, venison masquerades ns "sheep" or ante lope" on many a dinner table up In the woods, where other fresh meat Is a tood deal ot a rarity. At this season deer are never shot. They can not be. for they have nn legal existence. Their untimely end Is generally referred to as nn un fortunate accident. Sometimes a "sheep" falls off a rocky bluff bordering the river nnd breaks Its neck, after which calamity Its body Is pi keU up by n boatman who happens to be patrolling tbe river 1" that Immediate neighborhood. Another singular manner In which deer lore their lives In the Michigan woods Is by making a bold, hlghwai man-like attack on spnrtemrn who are out afier dark, either returning to their camp from u dtt)V fishing, nr from an excursion on f.Hjl to some iKitnt of Inierost In tiie woods On these trips men always carry either a shot gun or a ride: thus when the deer "attack" them they are In position to sbuot In "self defence." For a consideration, your guide. If he Is a good fellow," and yi.il are sportively inclined, will attend to all tbe preliminaries nf an even lug's amusement In the way of "shining" deer. An air of stealth surrnnnds the entire perform ance. It Is Just as well that tbe departure nf the party on an evening's errand be nuootlced, for, even In tbe Michigan woods, people will talk, and It Is best tn leave no loopholes through wbich a piece ot Information to tha value nf S'.'S to tbe informant might find Its way, for should a game warden unexpectedly awake to a reali zation of a sense of duty, and catch yon with a carcass of venison on hand.lt mlgbt cost jou f SO in tbe event you cuuld not prove the deer attacked you In the dark and yon shut It In self defence, and half of tbls sum would go to the conscienceless wretcb who "gave away" tbe snap. The boat In which you embark Is adonble enuer, clinker built. Tbe guide plate you In th bow. facing forward, Should tltete be a seat built Into the boat, of course )Oiiuelt; otherwise an inverted hair, or any old thing, must serve tbe purpose. On your Lead the guide straps an ordlna.y bicycle reflector lamp. This Is m. aimed In euci. a manner that the light will shine out over tho left eye instead of di rectly ahead, tbe object lieimi that should it be necessary lo use tha rifle, which the guide has thoughtfully atowed away In the bow of the boat, the light on the left of the head will throw a reflection directly along the gun barrel und permit a more correct sight than could other wise be taken. The guide la In the stern of the boat, paddling Insieid of rowing. Before startlntr nut be will pronably enjoin absolute silence, for in a deer the faciltlle ot hearing, smell, and aiglet are developed to an abnormal extent. The guide hitnseir may be depended on to make no noise. He will propel the boat without th slightest suspicion of a sound, leathering hie blade nu tbe forward stroke and never taking It from the water. With no wind soughing through tbe tree tops, deer. In the event the guide's suspicions were correct-and be bas caught thetit feedingmay be heard anywhere from twenty-live to tiny rods ahead, particularly If the mosquitoes or files ar trouble-oin- and the deer, not having their Imx f "lolhuap-ip" with them, are tamping lu the wuier lo get rid of the trouble hoiue Insects. When one Is out "shining" a deer may lie heard lailore be Is keen, or vice vrisn. The sound made by nneot three animal when feed ing i rarely mistaken by an old woodstuau, It resemble nolhlii but aileer feeding, und, lo cating hi approximate pooitot. by- tlie sound, the boaliuaii paddies so.tly In ihatdliectlon. Nothing 1 said 1 1 tha man in the bow. rn In structions ait i.eerssnry. He knows l.y lh movement nf the In.hI ha Is expected lo keep a careful waioh for two bright balls nf red tire alsiut tin. elre of a silver iiuarter, tin a parallel Una about .x inches anai'l. These glowing red spot will l.r th deer's eves, between which, nt a safe distance, the man in the bow I expected In discharge the liu.iy rtl'e, which tip to tbls time he has been carrying across bl knees full cocked, ll Is a singular circumstance that In iho re flection of a .roierly constructed lamp f r '-'shining" a neer' eye may be seen at it much further distance tliati the biHly.it the animal Itself. They mav ll .t hrnr the bunion Its up. proaoh, and certainly cannot see the necupants, vv ho are behind the lamp, but the light appears to fascinate; them, 'nt they will frequently Klnnd for several minutes motionless nnd with head thrown up. gailtig Intently al the strange object. Unless attacked wllh "buck fever" this Is where the man In the how of the host gels In hi deadly work In lb line nf self-defence, Provided be do not lose hln nerve he takes aim al a point iuidvva between the two balls nf fire, and an Inch or two below, and fires. If tbe aim hn la-en true tlie deer falls in it tracks. It 1 then I anted In dry lived. dlseiiilH.welled, and the carcass loaded aboard lh boat, after which It finds Its way to camp nr a convenient ice house. But "shining" fur deer Is not always at tended with u suhseiuenl supply of vents m. even though game may be plentiful, for "buck fever "may Intervene at a orll ral period und spoil the best elfort of the most conscien tious" and pslnsiakinu guide, in this connec tion a story is told way up In tlie northern Michigan woods about a wealthy tiling Chlca goan who might have lemnlnud lie eand bad all the tx.rk he wanted with tbe family brand nn it. but preferred to Invade a distant Country and run the risk or being "attaiked "nn a dark night li) a deer for the sake ol a change of d.et. The boatman did his duty, but nt the critical moment the young man lost hit nerve. The deer was in plain sight, the bout having been paddled tn within twenty feel of tho piace where tbe animal stu d.

Plagla for tk Cbaealaalitp fKlae T slag at Narwlek). Nortwion, Aug. 17. There It every prospect, th experts say. that the fifteenth annual tour nament of th National Croquet Auoolatlon. wbloh begins In this our to-morrow, will be one of the most enthnslattlo and successful tn th history of tbe organization. It If truo that the professional carna la not so fatclnf((ng to t,b unpractlced local epecfafors oa was the' ease half a (tozen years ago whan the old grounds it tha edge ot the ancient Norwich Cemetery were thronged all tha sultry August afternoons and at night In the while glow of aro light. Still, tbe annual meet her is reckoned to b ttj chief local event of the season, while tha croquet cracks themselves havo abated not a wbltot their old-tlm devotion and enthu'slatm for th, game. The new Rockwall croquet grounds of th association. In which the tournament of th past two years were fought to a finish, aro la tbo cool and shady northern suburbs, and ar by far superior Irt every' respect to the old Rob bins Field by th graveyard. The court, eight tn number, have been graded, levelled, and pot lsh.ed, bo that they are Just about as smooth and hard nnd elastic as the floor of a billiard table. A great deal of tints and money has been ex pended on them by the local clnb member or tho association, find they ar now entirely sat isfactory to tho most exacting croquet sharps. They are, 'without a doubt, the most perfect grounds in the world, with the possible excep tion of the beautiful and flnlslkd croquet field at Cottage City. Martha' Vineyard. They are enclosed by a strong, tall paling ot white. painted pickets, wth a slatted door open lug on Rockwell street. On the western border ts tho new, neat, and airy two-story club house of the association, Its balconies overlooking the grounds, and In which are dining and other apartments, with spacious closets, where tbo experts store their costly and polbbed tourna ment Implements. The courts would satisfy the professional judgment either of a mathematician or a land scape gardener. They were laid out by compass nnd square and rule. They are long, slim, trim, and true parallelograms, with nicely compound od. moulded, and naaked beds, about as elastic a Ivory, aud with low wooden rails, with peaked edges corresponding to the cushion rati of n billiard table. Not only are they eroded in the most finished style, but underneath each court Is an elaborate and perfect sewerage sys tem, with delicate Iron gratings at accurately appointed distances. At night big aro lamps flood tbe grounds with their white fight, so that the competing champions may co op with th content. If necessary, until midnight. About all the old crack players and cham. nitons ot past years havo announced their Inten tion to take part In the forthcoming lourna menu many ot whom arrived hero to-day. A number of new knight have entered the field this year, who as yet have championship spurs to win. Said n local expert: "Host of tbe well-known championship names have been entered In the list nf tourna ment players, tleorge C. Strong of New Lon don, who won th championship in 1HH0. 1894, and again last August, will he here. It Is proba ble, too, that Karl C. Bntkrof MIddlelotvn and E. M. Baldwin will be entered ln the first class and both are strong- and cool headed players. Ex. champion N. U. Bishop and Aaron W. Dickey, both of Norwich, will play, and also Prank Slsson of New London. It Is likely, ton, that Charles O. Smith may come to tbe meet. He was oue of the noted hoy playera' of a few years ago. nnd champion nf 1801, Smith has not attended a national tournament since that season, but this summer he has been plating a fine game with thecrucks on the grounds at Martha'-, Vineyard. It Is not certain as yet whether George 8. Dur ness of Lynn. 51m., will compete, but if hedocs his nam will be listed high in tho roster of first division platers. I-ast tear hn was Champion Strong's most formidable opponent, and lacked only a single game of winning the prilre. "Among the second division playera these experts are expected to enter: fnrjr E. Kay. Brooklyn: W. Holt APgar. Trenton: Dale p. Ilutler. Mlddletawn. Conn.: W, fj, Wahly. Washington: W. A. Tone, New London, and several others equally aa Well known. Dr. Davenport ot Northampton. Mass.. on of the oldest players. Is In this class as are also a dele gallon from Wilmington. Mesr. Bell, rTyno, nnd Hickman, and D. 11. Durham of Illinois and Campbell of Florida. Neither of the latter two has ever taken a hand In a national tournament. Among all the sharps there la no one. perhaps, more remarkable than the 'Hoy Champion' of Cottage City, who won th championship prize from a field full of veteran plater In 1891. To pick nut the winner ot the tournament Is not an easy thine to tin, fur croquet la just about s uncertain a game aa bahall:and It not infrequently happens that Ihe best player In a single game is beaten by th most Inferior one. Still, ektlt and Ihe self-confidence that comes of persevering practice, together with a cool-beaded resolution and an iron nerve, have Just about tbe same man lfett advantage in crack croquet that those qualities have In sclenllflo whist. Fur that reaenn a a nod Judge would b warranted In naming Champlou Strong na the F reliable winner of this year's championship. f he Is successful this time he will have held tha coveted honor four times In the past six years. The entries this year are between forty and forty-live, all being crack plnvers of th best professional croquet clubs In the country." In the opinion of many local experts the tour nament Is likely to be distinguished for many nwlft and brilliant games. Tin courts have been especially prepared hy t be "Id. lime croquet expert. Notes F. Meech, who has them rolled and watered dallr. Two one-armed men are entered In the lists this i ear. They are Mr. Wahly, Sr.. of Wab lngttip, father of W. H. Wahly. and Mr Col umn, also of Washington. Uotli are remarkably skilful players, nnd can heat many cracks who have two hands tn depend upon. Col man in E articular Is a. wonderful shot, and I likely to e heard from later on. Pror. Charles Jacobus of Hprlngfield. the best known croquet player In the country, will not be here, owing to busi ness affairs that call him elsewhere. With, opt him the tournament will be robbed of considerable Intercut, and there are other old time croquet stur who will be greatly missed: but the nnicec are counting nn new and ynung blood, of which there bids fair to be consider, hie this year.

This match has been scheduled for 1 1 o'clock to-morrow mornlnr. and a large crowd It expected to see the contest.

ThU doee not argue well for their suo eess to-morrow, but Wrenn and Chace never play at hard In practice at In a match, and they can be counted upon to put up a ttrong defence to-morrow. They will probably retort almoet entirely to lobbing, at this la the play that won tht ehamplomhlp for them latt year, and that It meit likely to be tueee-tful agalntt inch a combination at the Neel brother.

The Windsor Theatre was crowded last night, the occasion being tbe first boxing show of the AJax A. C. The prlnolpal attraction was the Bernstein-Kelly bout. "Brooklyn" Jimmy Carroll wa referee. The final "go" wa (op posed to be an eight-round affair between Al O'Brien of Philadelphia and Jim Holme of this city. The police refused to allow the men to fight and stopped them In the fifth round. The decision was a draw. The first bout wa of eight rounds between Stanton Abbott of England and Kid McPart land of this city. They cam together at 128 pounds, but Abbott appeared to weigh much more. He appeared to be In poor shape and weak. Both men began In a listless sort of way. In tbe second round Abbott braced up, but could not find Mcl'artland's face. He then tried for the body, but found that McPartland's guard waa there all the time. The latter did most of tbe trading In the third round, but bis advances were cleverly blocked, McPartland sent bis left several times home In tbe stomach, which seemed to put Abbott In distress. The Kid shoved his left twice Into Abbott's face, bnt tbe blows were only light ones. The English man rushed matters In the fourth rouud. but could not get out of nls own way In the fifth. Abbott tried to swing In tbe sixth, but Mc Partland punched blm bard on the jaw. After this round the bout became Interesting. The bore mixed It up somewhat In the last round. llcPartland did the better work and received the award. Jo Bernstein and Charley Kelly next put In an appearance. They shaped It at impounds. Tbe mill wus limited to eight round. Both boyt were In fine ebape. The pair came to gether with a ruth, and they punched with right and left without cessation. Kelly had a hade tbe better of the exchanges, but bis blows were not delivered straight. Kelly was after bis man In tbe second round at the call of time, nnd managed to gt his left home twice on the mouth, bringing the blood. Bernstein made a great rally In the third round and straightened up his opponent nlth npiiercuts on the mnutb. In the fourth Kelly crossed Joe twice and made him groggy with a hard left un the Jaw. Bern stein recovered quickly and was at his man like a demon. The ladn Indulged In fast fighting until the gong sounded. Kelly smashed Joe In the stomach and on tbe jaw in tho fifth, hut Joe kept rimrley off with two stingers lii the mouth. Bernstein lad tho advantage of the lighting at long range in the sixth and Kelly had to report to infighting. The latter, however, got home two beimtles Juetas time whs called. Tbe seventh round was very exciting, both boys doing n'od work. In the last round Bernstein caught Kelly napplnlc and sent him to thf floor with a rlglit-hniided jolt on the Jaw, Kelly was up in an Instant, hut Bernstein was ul him again.

Homo of the other bonds offered wero not subsorlbed for nt all. Two of the offers were below par. These were made by Zleley Co., and were respectively (JO per cent, and 08.05. As the law prohibits the salo of city bonds below par, these offers wore not considered. At tho last successful eale the bonds obtained 1 per cent, premium and at tho previous sals more than 3 per cent. Few of the bids were from well-known Wall street firms, and the syndicates whloli used to take all tho bonds the city offered whenever they got tbe chance were conspicuous by their absence from the bidding. Harvey Flsk 6on offered to take the whole amount of the bonds for the payment of State taxe for the support of th Insane, amounting to f 1,260, 000, at 100.6117, while Arbuokle Bros, bid for $600,000 at 100.2B.

Brio arose Apparently quite well on Sunday morning, but while eating breakfast was stricken with paralysis, th shock being much more terloui than tho one the experienced In Washington In May, 1B03, from which the rallied After several months. Her phytlolan was Immediately summoned. Ho found her unconscious, and she remained in that condition to the time of her death. Miss Dodge of late had been In good tplrlts, and patsed considerable time In Ihe open air. Slit had been quite talkative and took much pleasure In discussing politics and other mat ters. Mls Marr Abigail Dodge was horn In Ham ilton, Mass., In the rear 1830. In her girl hood day she was known In the pretty little New Englanditown of Hamilton as Abby Dodge. When she began writing for tho public alio se lected for her nom de plume the latt syllablo of her Christian name and tho name of her birth place. Afterward she was hnownto tho Ameri can publlo as "(Jail Hamilton." She was a cousin of Mrs. James BUtiio, and through that relationship she became familiar with tho publlo and private llfo of Mr. Blaluo. Miss Dodge spent tho past winter at her nld home In Hamilton. Her health wat reasonably good, to far as her frlendsln Washington knew. She had been working very hard on the llfo of James O. Blaine, whloh hai entirely occupied her time since Mr. Blaine's death. In addition to this sbe had never for a single day ceased her efforts to secure the release of Mrs, Ma brick, the American woman Imprisoned for life In London for poisoning her husband, Shu wan the flitt woman In America to engage In anything like a systematlo effort to accomplish this woman's release, and every day and every week the worried about it. Miss Dodge had a wonderfully Intellectual countenanru. She was not is good-looking wo man, for she had too much care and bard work to preserve the features that compose flood looks; but she was a clever woman, and ooked like one. Her eyes were sharp and pene trating, and, framed in pure white hair, ber face possessed a remarkably impressive ex pression. Her llfo wus one of constant worx and worry. As far back as 1831. when the was but SI years of age. the was Instructor In tbe hig'i school In Hart ford. Conn. She stayed there several years. Thon she went to Washington as governess in thu family of Dr. Gamaliel Bailey; and. Dr. Bailey being an editor. It was the most natural thing in the world that this Intellectual governess should drift Into print, and sbe did. Ihe paper was called thu .Vdllonol Era. and it contained her earliest contributions. It wns with her as It Is with all others once In print she could never get out. From that day to this she ha, written for the periodical or psrmnnent Subllcatlons. In 18U.1 she went to Ho, ton and ecHine ono of the editors of Our 1'oiini; a children's magazine. Ten years later she went back to Washington to live, and, with oe caslunnl Journey- hack and forth belwten Washington and Hamilton, the capital has been her home ever since. Her published uorksconstst prlnclpallyof col lections of ber fugitive writings. In luii'-i "Coun try Living and Country Thinking" appealed, and then from tltne tu time In rapid succe-dou came "tlnla Days." "A New Atmosphere." Stumbling Blocks," "Sklrmlshe.-i nud Sketches," "Bed Letter Days In Applethorpe," "Summer Best," "Wool llnthertug," "Wo men's Wrongs, a Counter Irritant."

"First Lovu's Ilest," "What Think Vu of Christ?" "Our Common School System." "Di vine (tuidance: a Memorial of Allen W. Dodge," i and "The Insupprrsnible Book." This Ian will show what a worker she was. These books were all written from lHU'J In 1883. After tho lart book was printed she began to write for tho dally press, rinding in the Now YorklWbune an instrument for the dissemination of her opinions on civil service reform. One of Miss Dodge's moet successful books was entitled Wool Gathering." Itwae printed Iwenlv-elRht years ago. Hnvlng been Induced t" lnvel tome money 111 a sheep farm in ono of the Western Mates, nnd having lost all her in vestment through bad management or misrep resentation or both, she made nn Investigation of the wool business and wrote a book about tt. That hook had an enormous circulation and at tracted attention all over the country, it was the first evidence of remarkable power, and from that time forward everything from her pen was eagerly read. Miss Dodge's strong characteristics left tbetr lmpre-s upon the career of James G. Blaine. It Is one of the traditions of Washington that Mr. Blaine always leaned heavily upon her Judg ment. W-ben In doubt as to mattera political, literary, or diplomatic. It was with her Hint he wished to consult before any one else. Miss Dodge's skill as a politician and ber Judgment of men wero said to be remarkably kueu, and with his wlfu and Miss Dodge as his advisers It used to be a common saying that Mr. Dlalue had a Cabinet which a President might envy.

Montgomery Hunt Throop, rector of St. Matthew's rroteatant Episcopal Chnroh In Jersey City, who succeeded tho Iter. Albort Nock about three years ago, has commenced suit against the vestrymen for arrears of salary. He alleges tbnt JoOS.IIG Is due him. Th papers In tbeault have been served on W. F. Crocliernn, treaturtr of tho vestry. The case will be on the Supreme Court calendar for trial at tbe coming September term. Mr. Throop has alto Inttl tuted A suit Agalntt the church for SL'0,000 for breach of contract. St. Matthew's It one of ths oldest oburohtt tn the city, and at ono time waa one of the wealthiest. Recently, however, the neighbor, hood In which It Is situated has become popu lated with Poles, Hungarians, and Italians, and the wealthy members of the church moved np on ths hill. That circumstance, together with ths several controversies In which Mr. Throop and his congregation have been engaged, has reduced the membership to a handful. There were only fourteen members nt the tervlcot last Sunday and ten nn the previous Sundny. Mr. Throop said yesterday: "When I became reotor of St. Matthew's Church 1 found that there were thirty-two different creditors against tbe parish and a variety of outstanding debts ranging from 10 up. The ontlro amount ag gregated about $3,000 over the mortgage In debtedness. I assumed tho rectorship with the agreement that I waa to be a preferred creditor. The vestry fonnd that the other creditors were Importunate, and the result Is that the others bave been paid and the debt to me has been getting larger. I have begun this suit simply because I need tho monor. I have no III will toward tho vestry. It has been under stood for sometlmo by some of tho vestry that I was to begin this suit. It wns done without any spirit of animosity whatever. The. mem bers of the vestry havo requested that I should make the legal expellees tn the church as light as possible, aud 1 havo Instructed my lawyer to do so. The suit for 8S0.00O Is nn entirely different thing. It Is a suit w'i. lob will come only before the ecclesiastical court. The place In which St. Matthew's Chnroh la located Is one from which tho English-speaking people are rapidly moving away. Moro than H8 families have moved away durlnir my brief rectorship, and there is only a handful of people left. The hnn.es of thoe who move away are being filled by Poles, Hungarians, Scandinavians, and a few Ger mans. Those who do speak English are either Jews or Roman Catholics. I regard tbe maintaining of tbe church In that locality as senseless, stupid, and sinful, because It Is a wilful waste of ronse. crated money. I desire to have the parish moved, and If this Is not done ti have my con nection with It severed. In making my applica tion tn the ecclesiastical authority of thealocrsa to bring aliotit that removal or separation 1 have asked for damages of f'JO.000. This Is not he fore it civil but nn ecclesiastical court. Illsex Sressly specified on my apullrntlon for the $-.'0,-00 darangrs that It Is my Intention. If the money Is awarded tn me. to give It back directly to the Church. I uk this sum for non-fulfillment of contract. I mrrely desire to establish a precedent that a parish Is taiund to live np to the terms of Its agreement with the rector.

It Is a f meeting for patriots and not for partisans jj. divided in political opinion on other or less IF vital issue:.. 1 .Mr. CocicrtAN will enjoy the great privi ly lege to-night of rendering a signal service S (i his country. All men will recognize that his motive in speaking is distinctly and it- wholly patriotic Kvery man who hears his A words to-niht and every man who reads if' them to-morrow will know that they are the expression of sincere and earnest con j viuion, nnd that they are uttered for no other purpoto than to assist in the enllght j enment of the speaker's countrymen as if to an issue which concerns tho national f honor and glory. Everybody understands that Mr CoCKHAN has no partisan ends to serve, but rather sncrillces merely partisan ndvantage to patriotic duty. He will speak simply as au apostle of the truth. It is a great privilcgo for tho peoplo also that genius mj rare, intellectual ability so commanding, and eloquence so engaging f and persuasive as Mr. COCHRAN'S, are to bo E thus expended for their instruction and for V the defence of tho credit and Integrity of their couutry. Gob bo thanked that the I, republic has such a champion It will not be enough to defeat the ma tt lign forces of which BltYAN is tho leader. F They must be overwhelmed next November, I- ao '.hat never again will any man or any party daro to insult the patriotism of C. the peoplo of this republic by proposing to them to defile its proud record with the In J Umy of repudiation. The fervor of patrlotlo j ndignation which will be evoked by tho f'; ieeting to-night must extend thence fe1' throughout tho Union until the spirit fc which actuates Mr. Cockran shall Inspire ft the wholo people to crush out and exter- 5, Jnlnate tho despicable influences now work- St Ing for the national degradation. ft- Nobody Cares. 5 The grievances of Mr. Warner Miller nnd Mr. Jons E. Milholland may be very S serious in their own view, but they neither p interest the peoplo of this State nor concern the great and vital issue of this campaign. jl However important they may be in the esti- mat ion of those two soreheaded gentlemen, I nobody else cares anything about them. The f people are not even enough Interested to ask h what the hubbub they are trying to kick up I Js all about. This campaign is against repudiation and robbery; nnd, so far as Mr. Platt Is con- t f cerned, the peoplo havo only a feeling of j gratitude to him for the service he rendered (i to the gold stnndnrd at the Republican Con- Tention at St. Louis. Even those of them i1 f. who had ill will toward him beforo his brave J, 5 battle there, are now rejoiced that tho cause I, f of honor and honesty is to profit by his eml- 3. nent abilities ns a political leader. lie Is on 1 the right side; he is with tho vast majority of the peoplo, and that is enough. v In the present situation anv Rcpubll- r, can faction that seeks to gratify Us spite ;e toward Mr. PLATT, is treacherous to the I people unitctl ngalnst repudiation and the debasement of the dollar, without regard I to partisan lines. They are Impatient of f the small souls who can spend their I I strength In fighting about petty personal h grievances at such a time. J j If Mr. YARSER Miller does not want to 1 earn the contempt of the publio he will de j i lay the satisfaction of his wounded feeling j until a more fitting occasion. Perhaps, Mr. j f Miller, we shall all bo exhilarated when In another campaign we see you Jumping j g. Into the ring to have It out with Mr. Thomas a Platt. Kow the people have j something more serlons on their minds than your personal ambition, and the i 1 grievances of which you complain are of J no more Interest to them than any other i. of your merely private affairs. 1 t Tho "necularlty" of Mr. Bryan. I- As Democrats have bean appealed to since I the Chlcazo Convention to vote for Mr. DarAX, Irrespective of his opinions, on the J, ground that bis nomination was "regular," I his own'.lntcntions, before that Convention, In case It should fall to declare for the free f coinago of silver, are worth Investigating. 1 'Was he ready to abide by the decision of f that Convention if It had boon against the I free coinage of bilverf If not, with what H face can he ask regular Democrats to vote If; for him on tho ground of the technical reg- Up. ularity of his nomination 1 Si It Is notorious that Mr. Br.YAV would HV havo bolted tha Chicago platform nnd can- dldates If they had been hostila to freo nil- w, ver. IIu sejiiu to have boaste 1 frequently, H' both In public and in private, that iuch was Hj'J1 his purpose. As he was an obscure person J I outnlcla of hi 1 own State, save to a few spo- Hjh radio knots of silver enthusiasts and Popu- B? "sU u,lt" ll" powers of nssimilatiou and HjCi declamation coniitierctl at Chicago, most of J.f his utterances have not been preserved, but a fow of them are extant, n:id they are cor- Hj: roborated by the general knowledge and to- l lief of the persons familiar w it U tho career HJ of Mr. Bryan then, and havo not been tls- f" nied. Indeed, Mr. Uhvas is undoubtedly HF piondof the fact that he showed the vior H(l of his zeal for free coinage and the weak- Hf'g noss of bis attachment to the lKmucr.icy. f As early as Oct. SO, lbUJ, Mr. DllYAN Ht' wrote In c. letter to Mr. K. G. Wilson Bit of Topeka, who had congratulated him BJ mon hlifiptech In the House of Hepresent- ntlvea In favor of free sliver, and also can tloned him against the Populists: "I hr not Ittl tb Dtmocratle ptrtj. but t am rrwlr to do II at toon u I m i-MltneO tht It U wJdl to tb fold lU&danL Until tlut Unit It t not nMrr lodtKuMlh mrrtu ot tha I'opulUlt.

J In less than a year from the date of thts 1 letter, Mr. Bbyax was not even objecting to "some things" In tho Populist platform. He hail led the Nebraska Democratic State Convention to endorse tho Populist State ticket, and was striving to bo elected a Sen ator In Congress by menus of a combination of Democrats and Populists. On May fi, 1805, Mr. Bryas said In a speech at Birmingham, Ala. "Slothlnc In htartn tDore. on tb t mrth bttow, or In btl brnrsth. could cnko me tupporl coll ttnd ard candidal on a (old tunilard platform." On June 11. 1805, Mr. Bryan, who had become since somo time In 1804 a travelling missionary of free silver and Populism or semi-Populism, said at Jackson, Miss., In reply to the inquiry If he would abide by tho course of the Democratic National Con vention if that body should not pronounce In favor of free silver at tho ratio of 10 to 1 "So help me God, I will die In my tracks before I will support It." On March 17, 1800, Mr. Brtan, whose backsliding from Democratic principles seems to have been both continuous and rapid, averred at Mount Vernon, 111. 1 "I am not a Democrat!" During the Chicago Convention Itself ho reiterated his resolution not to support a gold candidate or platform. It is clear that Mr. Bryan's Democracy sat very lightly upon him as early as 1803; that he cared moro for freo silver than for Democracy, and was ready to give up tho lat ter for the former at any time If necessary. Five months ago ho was not a Democrat, by his own declaration. What title has such a candidate, falutly loyal and then frankly disloyal to the Democracy, to the votes ot Democrats 1 He was not a Democrat beforo tho Convention. Certainly he Is not made one by the platform ot Populism upon which he stands. At best, he was an irreg ular Democrat; at worst, he was not, as he s not, a Democrat at all. Wlfj Not? For the sure-enough candidate for Gover nor of the Empire State Levi Parsoss Morton of Ellerslle, on the eastern shore ot the Hudson. Platform: He has been tried and not found wanting. Religion In Hot Weather. There are things of interest other than politics, even at this time. We hear of lots of camp meetings, lovo feasts, church pic nics and festivals, Chautauquas, Salva tionists fighting tho devil, Bible confer ences, Sunday school excursions, and other pleasant affairs. The great Sing Sing camp meeting has never been surpassed In fervor; and the very finest day of it was last Sunday, when there was a general jubilation, ending with the "March Around Jerusalem." At the Malaga camp meeting, near Vlneland, N. J., multitudes have for days past had rapturous experiences during tho sermons, the song services, the prayer meetings, nnd the lovo feast. There have been joyful spec tacles at the Ocean Grove camp meeting. where on Sunday last there was an early morning holiness service, afterward a ser mon and hymn service, then a Sunday school service, at which Oriental converts, wearing their native costume, spoke and sang in their own tongue; next, an after noon service, followed by a 0 o'clock servlco on the beach, at which 10,000 people were present and finally an evening service In tho Auditorium, at which there, was preaching before a great assembly. Then there Is tho Northfleld Bible Conference, which has lasted for two weeks, and is to be continued for another fortnight, at whlca Brother Moody and Brother Sankey carry on their missionary and melodious labors with ex traordinary success. The popular Interest In religion has been manifested this sumnirr In a remarkable way. It was a wondrous religious meeting up in Maine, at Old Orchard Beach, a few days ago, when tho treasury of Zioa was filled to overflowing as Zion's songs were sung In sweetest voice. Wo hear olso of particular religious revivals In a good many parts of the country, though not of any in this town. This week those tranquil and kindly peo ple, the Quakers, hold their General Con ference near the city of the charming name, Philadelphia, founded more than two cen turies ago by the renowned English Quaker after whom Pennsylvania was called. It Is pleasant to read a list of tho high themes that are to be taken up at this Qusker Con ference; and It must be refreshing, In these days of hubbub, to pass a period at tho Silent Meeting." Thank Heaven that we live In a world of variety as well as vitality I Fort Niagara's Centenary. It was an Interesting feature of the cele bration held at the mouth of the Niagara River during the past week, that the Thir teenth Infantry, which took part in It, had been present in the engagements at or near the same spot in the war of 181S3. But the commemoration itself was that ot an earlier event, namely, the evacuation of Fort Niagara by the British In August, 1700, as a sequel of the treaty of 1783, which ended the war of tho Revolution, The old fcrt goes back in its origin Mill further, to the date, more than two ccn urles ago, when the Chevalier, de Nouvkl, colonist and soldier of New France, estab lished it. Even the stone fort which succeeded the wooden structure dates back to 1726. Still, it did uot figure directly In the Revolutionary war, save as n rendez vous for British and Imlians, whero such atrocities as the Wyoming and Cherry Valley massacres were planned. But In the treaty of Sept. 3, 178B, which ended tho war v.-ith an acknowledgment of our Inde pendence, Fort Niagara was the rao'.t prom inent ot five points there named, on our soil, In which the British should bo nliowcd to maintain a garrison. In the treaty of 1701, negotiated by Jay, that provision was revised, and au agree ment was mado that all theo garrisons should be withdrawn by June 1,1700. A little delay resulted In tho uuatil substitu tion of American authority, o tint Kort Niagara, which was one of the Ir.&t of thee points to puss under our iiosm'siIuii, really wns not surrendered to us until Aug. 11 nf that J ear. Even tli- a there still ruimint-d one minor pest in l!r:t.ili j ...-u.-:on, I'urt M1ilimacblu.1l, which wn, given up the f.-i-lowing OctcVr But Fort Niagara was n i-olnt of conse quence, and its evacuation a liuUd eveuu Most apyropHately, therutoie, tli huu- drtdth anniversary ot IU passing Into American bands has been made the subject of memorial exercises. The recalling of that event Is a stimulus to patriotism, typical, as it Is, ot the reluctant unclutchlng of the British grasp upon our land. A Wont for Porflrlo Dlax. Wo salute the veteran statesman, Gen. DIAZ, who, by a unanimous vote of tho elec toral colleges, has been elccKd for a sixth term of office ns President of Mexico, an office which he has already held for twenty years. If any man In the Mexican re publlo has a claim to the unpreccdented honor thus conferred upon DIAZ, ho is the man. Under his rule Mexico has been transformed from a country of turbu lence, bloodshed, revolt, and revolution, Into ono of peace, order! Industry, and progress. He Is an honor to the republic by which he has been so honored. His rec ord Is without a parallel In Mexico or any other republlo In Spanish America. Be fore his day Mexico had been ruled for over half a ceutury by a lot of bellicose, dictato rial, rapacious, and Incompetent adventur ers, most of whom were at once tho pro moters and tho victims of revolution, many of whom were killed, but two or three of whom sorved out their terms of office, and plenty of whom held their places for weeks or months only. It Is, indeed, a marvellous change that has been brought about by Diaz. It Is to his personal traits and talents, to his ability In statesmanship. In administration, and In diplomacy, to his broadmlndedness, sinceri ty, firmness of purpose, and soundness of Judgment, as also to his thorough knowl edge ot the Mexican people and bis faith In Mexico, that his success must be attributed. He is a man of two races, and has the qualities of both. As we said once before, when speaking of him, in his veins the blood of the ancient Mexicans Is min gled with that of modern Spain, and In his mind the spirit of primeval Oaxaca Is con joined with that of civilized times. President Diaz is but sixty-six years of age. nnd. If his life shall be preserved, he will rule as President until a month before the opening of tho twentieth ceutury. It is not necessary here to consider the wiMlom of electing a President of a republlo for so many terms. The reason for It, In this cose, lies In the history of Mexico, In cer tain peculiarities of Mexican politics, In the uncommon character of the man. In the ex traordinary services he has rendered to his couutry, nnd in the singular esteem which his people entertain for him. A thing that would be utterly tinadvlsable for tho United States may be useful In Mexico. Mexico Is the most populous, orderly, steady going, prosperous, and progressive of the Spanish American republics, and her relations with our own country have been friendly for half a century. For much of her satisfactory experience in later years she is indebted to President DIAZ. We take occasion, therefore, at thts time, Just after his election for a sixth term of the high office which he has adorned, to salute PonriRio Diaz, the President of Mexico I Long may he live 1 Secretary Herbert on Sea Power. The address delivered the other day before the Naval War College by the Hon. Hilary A. Herbert was entitled "The Sea, and Sea Power as a Factor In the History of the United States." In view of the fact that Capt. MAtiAK's renowned work, "The In fluence of Sea Power Upon History," grew out of lectures delivered to this same Insti tution, and that Capf. MAIIAK Is also a lec turer there at thts present summer course, the Secretary's selection of his theme was not devoid of boldness and ambition. But without instituting detailed compari sons between the illustrious American naval strategist and the Secretary, It is fair to say that the latter succeeded In making his point, that of the vital part which strength u;on the seas has played in our wars. In the days of the colonies, fleets were needed for carrying the troops that attacked Louisburg and Quebec In the Revolution the number of British merchantmen cap tured by American vessels was very remark able, and John Paul Jones and other adventurous sailors became famous; but especially noteworthy was tho service ren dered by the French fleets tc our cause. On the glorious part played by our navy in the war of 1812 there is no need of enlarging here, and the story of those times, already told by several able American h'storians. Is, wo Ix-'lipvt, soon to be discussed in its broader, professional aspects by Capt. MAnAN. In the Mexican war. Commodore Connor'8 fleet landed Scott's army near Vera Cruz, and assisted in reducing that place. In the civil war the importance of the navy, not only in es tablishing a blockade ot the Southern ports, but In reducing seacoast and river strong holds and in capturing Confederate com merce destroyers, is undeniable, and was spoken of by Mr. Herbert at some length. The truth Is that the future of this coun try as a power able to defend its citizens and to maintain Its interests and the honor of Its flag In all parts of the globe must de pend to a great extent on Its navy. We are now, at last, engaged with suitable energy in protecting tho seaports with heavy guus and mortars, while within our borders is a great population that can defy nggresslon. Yet to keep away enemies from our shores and to cause our rights to be respected In foreign ports is the province of the navy, so that the lesson of the value of sea power cannot too often bo drawn. How Mr. Monk Would Solvo It. The proposal made In the British House of Commons by Mr. James C. Monk, that England should annex Crete, thus solving a difficult problem, is eminently cool. It does not appear that such a solution has been asked by the island itself, or has been diclissed at Athens or At Constantinople. Russia has manifested no desiro for it, nor has Germany, France, or Austria suggested it. Annexation, it Is true, has long been a dream of the Chris tians of Crete, but It is anuexntiun to Greece they are after, nnd Greece, on her part. Is eager fur the uiiluii But it could only occur to a British member of Parliament seriously to propose that the Euro pean pnwets should concede to England what they refue to Greece, and that "in order to put an end to the unfortunate condition of niTairs existing in that bland," they should furnish additional facilities fur turning the Mediterranean Into j a British le. I John Bull's capacity for gobbling up not I only Island but continental areas in the j fourqu.irters of the globe Is enormous, and usually lie is impelled, of course, lo a phll authropic motive, like the one which Mr. Mi-" I.

Boms like the valley of the Hudson, the Mohawk, or other river of our glorious BUte, Boms like the mineral springs of the Btate, which benefit both bodr and mind. Some like rural life among the stal wart farmers, who raise frnlU. vegetable, and other wholesome things. Borne prefer to every thing else the conntry hotels, which are plenti ful all over the State. It Is truly a great Btate, which Is adorned by this radiant city, where life can be enjoyed at all seasons of the year. Beginning to-ntght the lints of tha cam paign for honest money In New Yora will be broadened. Slmnltaneontly with the meeting of the Honest Money men to hear Dounsc CocKnAX at Madison Square Garden to-night, the en rolled Republicans of this town wilt. In com pllanee with the call signed by the Hon. Edwabd LACTznaAcn. Chairman of the Ite publlean County Committee, assemble In their respective voting places throughout the cltr between the hours of 7 and 9 o'clock. Tune primaries are for the purpose of electing dele gates to the Republican Bute Convention In Saratoga one week hence, to the Republican County Convention at Lyrlo Ball on Bent. 10. and to the Republican Congress Conventions, which will be held to the various dlitrleU of the town on Sept. 3. Therefore, while the Republicans are prepar ing In their primaries for their share ot the fight for honest money, the DemocraU will go to hearCoCKOAlf, to be stlmnUted and charmed by hie sptendla oratory. Reward and fame come to the virtuous man at last, no matter by what winding roads or with how much perturbation of time Ubles. The first week In July the Hon. Wharton Barked went from Philadelphia to Chicago to ee if a nomination for Pretldcnt had been left there for him to call for. Ue called, but the nomination bad not come, and Mr. Barker fled to Philadelphia, leaving bit address, to that there would be no mistake when the nomination arrived. Although he failed to receive It, he has received and committed to print something much more valuable. Ue has been thanked In warm words for his deeds In behalf of the free coinage of silver, thanked or the etateimen who are now especially eminent, the Hon. Joux P. Jones of Nevada and the Hon. James K. Jones of Arkansas. The Hon. Wharton Basked ought to be a happy man. The non. Philander Morgan, a brother of Senator JJoroan, and one of the most re epected of the Alabama l'opullns. has written a letter calling upon the Hon. Tosjtom Watson to step down and make room for Mr. fcrwALi. "While every Individual sentiment" of Mr. Mohoas's nature "goes out for the gallant Watson," Mr. Moroan declares that "it should be the pride and would be the Immortality of Mr. Watson to yield to the demands that circumstances have created." Fine wordi, bnt Mr. Watson Is nut the kind of man to be smothered In buttrr or to yield to the demands of circumstances. Nor Is he looking for the immortality to be gained by an act of political altruism. Ha would much rather have a good fight than have Im mortality. Doubtless he will tell Mr. Moroan to address himself to Mr. Sewall. Mr. Wat son would be lonesome If he were not a candi date: and his paper would not have to many readers. Ha has every reason to star In the field, and he will continue to fill a Urge part of It. An esteemed correspondent In China, Me., asks as te theenrrectnessof Governor Wiluax J.

Her belongings should be subordinate to those of her royal mistress. Hor utnarrliiK manner should be one of even cheer fulness. A betrayal of tedium would lw thought bad form. Nervous headaches must be con cealed. One does not speak uutil tpokeu to. Iho subjects of conversation are limited, be cause eo many subjects would be unsafe It repeated.

Mmpson of tho Christian Alliance was called usterday to the published story from Portland. Me., that a Mrs. Marley of Auburndale. M'i, wat about to be glu suit to recover a gold walcb which she had contributed to the $101,000 collection taken up last Sunday In Old Orchard. It wat atalcd that a demand had been made upon Dr. Simpson and bis assistant. Miss Hhepard, for the return ot the watch, on the ground teat It had been contrib uted In a moment ot emotional excitement and while she was under hypnotic Influence, but that they had refused to return It. "There is no foundation whatever for that story." said Dr. Simpson yesterday. "A similar story was circulated In New England last week, and I denied It then. These reports are doubt less started by persons who desire to injure us. I haven't the slightest Idea who they caa be, but the persistence of the stories shows that some body la belaud them. 1 rlo nut know ot any Mrs. Mariey. aud neither the nor any one represent ing her has asked lo have a watch or an other contribution returned. Neither has auy other of the contributors at the meeting. Miss Shsp ard. who ha. charge of the watches and Jewelry put Into the collection, was as mucn surprised at the siory as 1 was. Less than a dozen watches were received at Oid Orchard and Miss hhepard examined these carefully to see if any ot mem coald be Idenlifled as coming from anybody named Marley. but without result. 1 hate Just lluished going through the last mall, and up to date no word of any suit has reached me. I may say that. If Mrs. Marley had atked that the walcu be returned, the requent would have been complied with cheerfully and at once.

Ogllvle I'nb llthlng Company tent to the Bryan notification meeting, at Madison Square Harden. V.HOO ooplea nf a book entitled "Lite and Speeches of the Hon, Wm. J, Bryan, with Introduction and Iilocraphlcal Sketch by the Hon. William Sui ter. M. t, 11th N. Y. District." They were to be sold at twcnty-flve cental, copy. After the meeting waa over l!,TH(l copies of tho book cams back, and are now piled, with 'J00 moro that were not sent up to the meeting, all untold, ln a warehouse. Immediately after Bryan's nomi nation the Ogllvle Publishing Company set about the preparation of a "campaign life" of the Boy Orator: the book was to be similar to n Ufa of MoKInley whioh the firm had brought out Just aftorthe Republican National Conven tion. Thirty thousand copies of McKlnley'a lite wero printed, and tho first edition has been so neatly exhauited that a accond Is In course ot preparation. Before the Bryan bonk wat ready a Mr. Sui ter, member ot Congress fmm Harlem, rnmn to Mr. Ogllvle and offered to write an Introduction and a biographical sketch for a collection of BryBn's speeches the whole to bo used as a cam paign document. Mr. sulzer Intimated that It was Just as well ln matters ot this tort to have an unknown candidate Introduced by one whose mime was svnonomoua with fame. Mr. Ogllvle act his own book to one sldo and took np tbt work of the Harlem statesman. Mr. Suiter suggested that the book be first placed before the publlo at the ratification meeting. He laid that In his Judgment the edition should be 100, 000 copies. -Tnat I a large number of books," suggested thj publisher mildly. "Oh I" said the statesman. "Well, make It 00,000," Mr. Ogllvle did not commit himself, but promised that tho edition should be large enough to meet all needs. After hesitating for some time between ',000 and 3.000 copies, the publisher decided upon U.OOO. Three men undertook to manage the sals at the notification meeting. Each man hired ten assistants, so that there were thirty-three men engaged in peddling the books. Hecausoofthe pernicious police activity they were not all able to get Into tbe hall with their wares, but those who did not get ln circulated through theorowd outside Instead. They felt that they ought to do even better outsldo the building. People who were unable to see and hear the candidate would console themselves with the book. That idea has been changed. The thirty-three agent are also Inclined to contradict Mr. Slujun's slntemeut that the crowd that could not get in were the true ad inlrers of the Popocral candi date, who would never have gone out, had they once got In. until Br) an was through speaking. Notwithstanding the frantic efturls of their thirty helpers, the three ciimn hack with all but fourteen of the hooks. One man took 1,000 books up to the meeting. He brought bacx 1.000 boog. Why," said Mr. Ogllvle. "I don t believe you ever went ntar the place." The agent silently displayed a truckman's re ceipted bill fort'.': "To carting 1.000 books from 57 Rose street to Madison bquare Uaiden." The publisher apolugizt-d. On the front cover uf the volume Is a half tone picture ot the Hun. Mr. Bryan that makes him look ten years older than tie really Is. 'Ihe publisher a that Mi.

The fol lowing passages are quoted from the Introduc tion: "The National Democratic Chicago Conven tion of lMtd has passed into history." "The time htwl cume lo tell tbe truth, to say what waa meant, ami lo say It so no one could be mistaken or deceived. No more Juggling with Idle words. No mure sophistry. No more glittering sentences susceptible of a double cuii atrucilon and Intended only to deceive, and never to be carried out. No more of these, but a plain, clear, concise declaration of principles, such a declaration as JtlTersuii would write and Jacksun stand on aud exemplify." Ureal occaslun pruduco great men. Great events make grevl men." "It wit a great rpeech, delivered entirely ex temporaneously, and without pretaratlun. It was delivered on a great occasion. It has gouo Into American history, and will lake us blai e with tbe American claslcs. It came a a sun rle. It lifted the Convention ott Its feet.

What a scene that was' The Convention was spellbound and entranced.

"Of his success In this campaign his friends have never tor a moment duubtetr. It Is destiny. The people all over the country are flocking to his standard.

Then follows tho biographical sketch. At the head of tnls chapter appears a new name. By William Sulzer." It reads, "and Walter Scott." Whet Mr. bcutt had to do with it le not appar ent in the text. Kvery paragraph bears the tar marks of bulzerlan style. '1 he following auvu. dole Is pleasing and instructive. "It was this habit of studious rnsearoh ac quired In thesn early days that caused a young lady employed as stenographer In his law uftlt e nt Lincoln tu remark ears afterward. 'Mr. Bryan was nev er at a loss lor a word while dic tating his speeches, his briefs, or his correspond ence. He never luoktd In the dictionary. Why should ho? He had rtad It all through, and he never forgot a word In It.' Then the eulogist takes uphlsdescriptivepen, with till rasult; The residence In which Mr. Bryan was born Is still standing near the village uf balem. It Is of an ordinary type nf a Western farmhouse, nearly square, five winduws and a single dnnr In front, located a few mils baok from thu road. Is surrounded by a dozen shade trees, and ll would be regarded as a mere cottage In an K ast ern town," A little later ho makes thla Interesting declar ation: It Is not trne that Mrs, Bryan writes his speeches for him." Mr, Bryan Is still Ignorant of the falluroof tho book, Ilu Is quite sure that there will he an other edition right away. In this fond hope he has revised the work while at Irvtngton with John Hrlsben Walker, ln thu present edition Mr. bulzer has dwelt upon the Boy Orator's re markable youth: As a boy. young Bryan was unusually diffi dent, preferlng to wander over the prairies studying fauna and flora rather thmi Indulging In the sports enjoyed by his youthful compan ions." Mr. Bryan now desires thla to read: As a boy, young Bryan waa ratherdlfndtnt," The rest la to he omitted. Mr. Bryan also requests Mr. Ogllvle to remove the quotation marks wherever they appear en closing the "crown of thorns, cioss of gold" passage, "Inasmuch," he says, 'as they are not quoted from anybody," Kven where the para graph Is printed In facsimile, after a copy spe cially furnished the publisher by Mr. Hr)an, lie has crossed out tbe quotation marks present In the original copywith heavy black pencil marks. It would seem that bis sensitiveness un the point has extended so far that he refutes to admit mat the passage la a quotation from dig own speech. It Is original, he seems to claim, each time he repeats it. A Su.f reporter was informed yesterday that Mr. Suiter had communicated to Mr. Ogllvle during the day an assurance that It would be best to run the edition np to 100,000 any way, aa the Popocrat National Committee was going to use tbe boog as a campaign document, Mr. Ogllvle would neither afiirmnor deny tbtaitate ment.

"Thorough- I I End" wm performed by nearly the tame I 1 I yompany that had been employed In It I li tyring, and the fun of the fare wa en- oroed upon tbe audlenra with merry efToct. It j Will ba remembered that the theme treated by f, ftolph Lumlty In thlt piece It that favorite one J cf the London ttag. the turf, and that onoe attain tbe fortunet of aaet of oharactera are made i to depend upon n certain hnrte winning or luting a. race. Thrre It tome Incenultr and a great J 1 gaal of humor In the matter, although not a w of tbe English point are dull to mott American eartl but thlt watte of good material I iioTerbalanced bf an element of Amerlcan- j w ftm. embodied In a wealtny repreteuUtlre i of our couutrr who flguret aa a wooer I j I of an Impoverished Engllth girl of titled birth. The American It not a caricature, but a reatonable gentleman, and hit talk, irtlh that of the others who tpoak to and of Wm, Is not at all libellous. It It understood, bowarer. that Clyde Fitch edited those portions at the play, and that It was not to truthful when (sated In London. The performance waa tptrtttd and effectual Jdr. Beabrooke, Mr. Williams, and Mr. Hum phryt were quit aa comtoal aa before In their Ohrltty mtnlttrel epltcde, and ther had a new aocg, with the retrain. Keep the baby warm, mother." by George Orotemlth, which waa Tery laughable aa given In mockery of minttrelt' patbetlo balled tinging. A new doggerel tong from London, about "Sitter Mary't Top Note," wat given by Maud Nugent. Mitt Miller, Mlts Butby. Mr. Pitt, Mr. Norrlt, SIlnNnnn, and MltsFlsoher were assigned to the rolee in whloh they had been generally liked before. A recruit wat Edgar Davenport, who vraa polite and manly aa the rtob lover from the fitatea. The mutlo ball teaton began autptcloutly at Hotter A Blal's latt evening, and the programme contained teveral features that were entirely novel, while the performers that offered some what familiar specialties were at their beat, with a good share of their Innings freshened. Caroline Hull retponded to the flrtt number, and In explaining that she would sing a song in soprano, alto, and In baritone, she did not preface ber remarks with "I will endeavor" or "With your kind permission." but went right at her speech, and then did just what tho promised to do. Thus was the standard set for something new In the beginning, and It waa not permitted to fall throughout the evening. A mutlcal down named Delphlno had new Ideas In prano log while he played upon sleigh bells and coins, and his selections were more difficult and tune ful than the ordinary ones.

The work dsne on the cruise to Hampton Roads was, however, very faithful, beginning betimes In the morning, and lasting well toward evening, with Instruction at night. This plan gave all tbe watch officer praotlce In turn, while simultaneously with tbe squad ron exercises each shin would carry on It Indi vidual drills.

Betides tho good results expeotrd from the training of olnceri and men In the evolu tions, much Is looked for from the criticism of expert observers. On each trip a Board of three line officers Is required to note care fully all difficulties or defects encounlared In tb evolutions. The time for orh Is to be need, with the helm angle and other points. o that accurate statistics may bo furnished as to which of two methods of doing the same thing Is better, and what m.nenients should be discarded.

While, also, the Board nf which Admiral Walker Is President is to inquire Into tho ad visability of ettablls ting a reserve fleet on the European sjstom, it is likely that our ships in commission "111 see an Increase before tney suffer any decrease through such a plan. Two powerful armo'clad. the Purittn and the Brooklyn, are likely to be added to the actlro fleet during the coming autumn. The former is surpassed In battery potter nnd In protective armor only by our (lrst-clasa battle ships, and is a mott powerful factor for coast dafeice.

In ono way nr another. ve are not likely to see on Immediate reduction In the number of esels for active service, even I if the reserve plan Is adopted. It Is thouaht, however, that tho report will be generally favorable to the reserve system, and that two classes of reserve can be foriied, nno consisting of ships practically ready for service at short notlie, but laid up, with small crews, purelj from motives of economy, and tbe other, constituting a second or dock nrd rcserv o, lo Include v csels that must under go repairs before being ready for eorvice.

Such a provision Is now going on, for example, at Sandy Hook. Another question I aa to the manner In which the artillery arm should be Increased. One stattment Is that Gen. Mile Is desirous of having the batteries scattered among a greater number or points. In order lo have more torts garrisoned. But the bill pending In Congress proposes to Increase the live regiments to seven, whereat a former meorure waa bated on the Idea of simply auding more batteries to the f resent number of regiments, on the ground hat It was additional batteries that were re quired and not additional regimental organiza tions bUII, the-e latter are al,o advocated, on the ground that ihev will furnish more promotion, while preserving the three-battallnn, twelvo eompanv idea. Altogether, It would seem tbat there Is no Immediate need of redistributing the artillery, and I bat the most sensible and economical plan would be to wait the action of Congress at the coming tension ou r-ecretary Lament's line reorganization bill. If that bill, or even the artillery part of It. lieoomet a law, tbe assignment of garrisons to the new batteries hereafter to be built will be an easy task.

Quebec, Aug. 17. The crop outlook In the Canadian Northwest is dismal. Manitoba It on the eve ot ber harvesting teaton, but there It an alarming contrast between her wheat fleldt a year ago and to-day. For weeks after the har vest season ot 181)5 the Canadian Pacific Rail way was taxed beyond It powers to carry out the great crop. This year there will be very little It any wheat to go east for export. The weekly reports lsutd by the railways traversing the province are purposely mislead ing. Tbe Canadian Pacific Hallway Is anxious to conceal from Its rhareholders and others the los-en w hlcb It will sustain by the failure of the Northwest crops. Last year tho wheat yield of Manitoba alone was In round figures .10.000 000 bushels, nn average yield per aero of about twent) -eight bushels. The area town In Manitoba and the Northwest thlt year was only 75 per cent. of that of 1HP5. I-armers were kept so busy latt autumn getting In and shipping their large crops that thev did very little fall ploughing. Much of tbe sowing done was on stubbie land, and this has turned out an almost total failure. In addition tn this the lightning and hall storm of Mtinda), Aug. V, caused widespread damage. In some portions of nthe-n Manitoba the tweeD of the storm waa thirty miles 1n width, and it devastated everything In Its path. Careful estimates by local newspaper men and tbe agents of Eastern millers and others place the total fold of the Northwestern wheat fields this year at onl) UU per cent, of the crop of ISM. A large part of this year's crop will also be of very low graie, rust having caused con. slderable damage. Trie poor ield thlt year meant a bad black ej u for the Canadian Paclflo Hallway at well as for the Canadian Northwest. A WOVLD-UE "JACK HIE RIPPr.R."

The young woman, who is now living at 18 bpencer street, Wllllamsburgh. has saved some money and expects lo return soon lo her home und mother. Yesterday, in the Lee Ave nue Police Court, she accused John .larunowskl of threatening tier life and sending Indecent postal cards lu her through the mails "'1 his man has threatened m life because 1 will nut marry him." she mid "I confess that I do love some one In this country, aud us soon as I return to my country he will follow mo Ibere and we will he married. The prisoner denied both of the charges.

Capt. Ooodflber of the British four-matted steel ship Good pair was In the city yesterday and showed a reporter of the Orevunton a copy of a San Franclico paper containing a ttory from Berkeley about a musi cal dog, "Now." said the Captain, "I would llko fur yen to come aboard my shlo, where I will show you n freak that will put Into tho deeC9t shade the toclely-muilcale dog at Berkeley." The reporter accepted the Captain' Invitation, and accompanlr I htm to bit ship. As ho entered tho cabin he could hear some one playing In another cabin an Instrument, the tone of which sounded like a piano, though th sound was somewhat softer and much tweeter than mott pianos carried on ship board. Whoever waa Dialing the Instrument was Indeed a finished artist, for the rapidity with which the key were struck wat tome thing remarkable. The reporter wat about to open tbe door loading Into the mutlo room, when Capt Ooodflber made n motion not tn do so, nnd taldi "Walt. Bc'nre you enter that cabin I wish you to stay where you aro for a thort time and lltten to the mutlo, of which later I will glvn you the history, for the moment the dooropent the mutlo will ceaae, and It may be some time before you wtll have another op portunity to hear such muslo aa yon will In the next fifteen or twenty minutes." We stood outside the cabin for about half an hour and listened to the muslo, which never for a single moment ceased, and th range of air wat remarkable tome of them were matter pieces of tbe most classical order, while other were the popular and catchy tune of the day, and the manner In which tunes tuoh aa Yankee Doodle," Dixie," and bouea marohet were played would make a man 100 year old feel like dancing. The Captain wot atked what be meant by laying that when the door opened the mutlo would atop, and replied: "I Invited you aboard th Qoodpatr to (how you tbe most remarkable freak of nature. So remarkable Is It, In fact, that I am confident that lr I were to go to any Eastern city and tell in public the story of what 1 hare cot In that cabin I would be Immediately arretted nn a charge of Insanity. My reason for Inviting you aboard before telling yon more of my pet and It history It that I fear If I had told you on th dock you would have refuted to come on board, thinking I was orazy, for when you enter that cabin you will be In the presence of the mott wonderful musician In the unlverte." At he ceased speaking, he opened the door of thecabln. and Instantly, as he had predicted, tbe music stopped and the reporter entered the elegantl) furnished room and looked all over It, but aw no sign nf the musician. Tbe captain called his attention to a laree aquarium in the middle of the cabin, in which was swimming a large peculiar-shaped flh, but, as the water was very murk), notnlng could be seen very clearly. The captain called "Tlr-Tae-Toe," and a large, strangely. thaped fish leaped out ot the aquarium on to a pile ot rocks olaced In a large cox near tbe tank. On tbe Captain holding over his bead a piece ot cheese, tbe fish began to leap for It. The Captain wa atked to explain the myatery of the music, nnd for him to bring forth the musician. Pointing to the fish lying on the rocks, he tald: "There he Is." What Ye, there Is the creature that produced those exquisite strains of harmnnr yon heard." Capt. Ooodflber left tbe cabin for a few min utes, and when be returned he held in his hand a larger piece of cheese and a bright red sasb, about seven feet long and -Ix Inches wide. These, be explained, were the bribes tome times successfully used lo make Tie play before comDany, for, as tbe Captain explained. It was one of the ttrance peculiarities of hl pet that it would seldom pla) berore company, and any at tempt to force It only added to Its determination not to play. The Captain called the reporter to the opposite side of the cabin and showed him a7t-octave piano, the keys being made less than half the size of tbe standard make. This piano waa made In Bombay, and cost '.'00. I see be Is going to play, to do not make any uolte, for It you do ha will stop, and nothing I can do then will get him to play again to-day," tbe Captain tald, Tbn tbls strange creature Jumped on the piano stool, and Instantly Its many Angers be gan flying over the keyt at lightning speed, 1 be opening piece represented a storm at sea, and so true to nature was It that by abutting your eyes you could easily imagine you were at tea during a storm of furious violence, so per fectly did tbe Instrument reproduce the sounds. You could distinctly hear the wind whistle through the rigging, and the oreaklng and riroaulng of the mottt and )anls of a heavllj naded ship, as she rolled lu the trough of an extra heavy sea. Every moment you could catch the peculiar sound produced by the brace blocks and braces coming In contact with tbe standing rigging, and the maimer In which the sound or taking a heavy sea atioard wns Imi tated was marvelous 0eond description, aud was enough to make a landsman sea sick. Instant!) this muslo woe changed tn Nearer, M) Ciod. to Ihee."and ns qu'ckly again did It change to Paradise Alley", then fiillowed tbe Vv eddlng March," after which came a Jumble of musical toundt composed eif a few bart each of about ever) popular song going Before one could grasp the Idea the mulc was over and "lie" bounded off the stool and Into his tank t'apt. Ooodflber described "Tie's" capture a follows: n Englishman named Esherman caught him while net fishing near the village of Jut napatatn In the Polk straita off tbe Bay of Ben gal, India. Mr. Esherman wat talon with hit pecullai construction and hit beautiful color, so he dei ided to make him nne of his happy famll) He tonk It tn a barrel to his bungalow, nnd In a ver) short time It became verr tame, and Its owner became quite attached tn it, and it was given tbe freedom of the bungalow. lu the bungalow was a piano belonging to Esherman's wife and daughter, who at thtt time were visiting In Madras.ao that for nearly a )ear the Instrument was never played on. On his daughter's return about tbe first thing she did was to open the piano and run her fingers light!) over the keyboard. Tie.' who at this time lay sleeping on a rug outside the buncalow, uttered a peculiar sound and rushed Into the room and began to cut np all kinds of capers, and tbe raster the )Oung lad) pla)ed the tuter Tie' danced. When Miss Lhennau got off the plana stool tho most remarkable thing occurred She had sca'Cel) moved berore 'Tie' lumpid on the stnol und began striking the ke)s, producing the seir-tauie seiiinds the )ourg ladv had onl) a few mtuulis before. 'Ihelrnstnnishmtnt atsuch a tight made them sieecbless, and for a long time the strance musician held them rpellttound. It did not take tbe Esliermans lung after the above episode to discover that "lie' would repriduce any tound it heard on the piano, "Esherman told me that wheu he was In Eu rope, he once heard llljnd Tom, and be says that "lle-Tae-loe's' and Tom's plating are similar, as both produronnly sounds the) hare heard, and tho 11 Indoo native servants vronhlpped him, as they believed that the reincarnated spirit of some gri t musician was Imprisoned lu the ani mal's boil). "I paid S-3.000 In Mr. Esherman for Tie.'" said Caul (ioodtlber. "and am going to take him to England lor exhibition purposes.

Fine weather favored the annual ahow of the nawarden and Buckley Horticultural Society yesterday, and thousands nf visitors found their way to Hawarden Park. Tbe exhibition wat held In a marquee erected In the park at the foot of the hill on which stands the old castle. In tbe afternoon there was tbe usual gathering In front of the cattle terrace to witness the distri bution of prize by Mrs. Gladstone. After the cheering htvd tubslded, Mr. Gladstone, mount ing the terrace walls, tald: "NEiGnBOK8ADFHlxviS!

Mr".

"For example. I am told there Is the useful article of butter. I suppose we are all more or less familiar with that article.
