SOCIETY LADIES INDIGNANT Mrs. Grannls Will N'ot Interfere with Liv ing Pictures Savcus Tlicy Appear In the lloxcs at the Grand Opcru. Kcmurkuble Police Activity. By the United Tress. New York, Nov. CO. Two crusades have bpon begun in this city, one by the police against the living pictures presented at different theaters, and an other by certain women, headed by Mrs. Kllzaboth U. Grannls, against the mode of dress popular among attend ants at the opera. Police Captain Max Schmittberger, who presides over the Tenderloin dis trict, sent out some of his policemen lust night to gaze upon the thinly clad feminine charms on hihklon In vari ous places of amusement In the dis trict. The managers of theaters where liv ing pictures are produced declare that they nre willing that any society or person may make the fullest Investiga tion, even If It be Captain Max Sehmitt berger, the policeman who in under Indictment for levying blackmail upon women of the town. The crusade against living pictures In the thcars was started by some advanced advo cates of social puilty. The alert New York police, alert to forestall all sorts of reformers now since the I.exow com mittee exposures and the late election, determine to precipitate themselves against the fad and prove their deli cacy and virtue. But, alas for human foresight of the metropolitan police grade! Superin tendent Byrnes, Inspector Conlin and Captain Scmlttberger had scarcely decked themselves In the borrowed plumes of the london "Prudes on the Prowl" and quixotically moved against the women who compose the living pic tures, than they found that they had overshot the mark. For years the po lice led a crusade against the unfor tunate women of the town, but It was a crusade for plunder. All the world has been mndeacnualnt ed with their prowls In that direction, and it Is perhaps for that reason, if nothing else, that the best women of the city, the leaders In culture and purity, are not supplementing the present prowl. Mrs. E. B. Grannls, a leader In the social purity movement, has declared that the pictures are not objectionable, and already her protest against the Iconoclastic prudes of the police has borne fruit In an expression of grati tude from those women who mnke their living by appearing In animate repre sentations of famous woiks of art.' This move of the police, however, has F'.-t Mrs. Grannls and, as the latter says, other women of the Society for the Pro-motion.-uf Purity In other ..rtiuo. They say that they intend to compel a change of dress among the social lead ers at the opera. Mrs. Grannls declares that sho and others have taken notes at the opera recently of the manner In which the women of prominent families were dressed, and that another force will be at the Metropolitan opera house tonight for the same purpose. She says she will compel the police to take ac tion If a change in the mode of dress Is not made. Ilegnn with the Uillhoards. The movement started several months ago by the defacing ofplctures of partly clothed women on the billboards by the small boy. From this the attention of the police was turned to the i'ving pic tures, and stops were taken to put a stop to them, but there Is no reference In the penal code to this style of display. The only law which could be construed to bear on the case was Sections 317 and 318 of the penal code, which calls for the suppression of all placards of a lewd nature and all displays which are disgusting. Superintendent Byrnes and Inspector Conlin believed that this could be made to apply, and officers were sent out to get evidence. Captain Hchmlttberger, of the "Tenderloin," In whose precinct most of the alleged objectionable dis plays are made, was directed to go from place to place and view the pic tures himself and report to the superin tendent. The captain did this last Mon dan night, and. on Tuesday morning he applied to JusU:Hogan for war runts for the arrest of several man agers. Justice Hognn declined, as he did not consider a policeman sufficiently expert In art to Judge such a delicate question. He therefore advised the captain to Interest the Society for the Promotion of Purity and let them act in the natter. Several well known society women loaay expressed tneir indignation at the remarks made by Mrs. Grannls In criticizing the toilettes worn at the opera, which she characterized ns more Indecent than the living pictures exhib ited in the theaters. A very prominent society woman when seen today In re- lution to the subject, said: "It Is simply outrageous, to say the least, in nave these public remarks and comparisons made on the women who represent the best and wealthiest rami lies in New York. From time Iminem orltil women, wherever they have nn. peared In Kurope. either at the court or public balls, have always appeared In low evening gowns. The comparison drawn between the wealthiest of this city "and the women who appear ii uie living pictures is beyond ridicule I have attended the opera for many v..4, im hoi once nave I ever seen y one immodestly dressed."

It. Is right there that reform Is needed, and If I cannot Induce these prominent peaplo to change their cos lumes, bo as to conform with irood morals and sound Judgment in dress will bring the matter to the attention of the police. "At last evening's performance of the opera I had several watchers on hand who took notes on the manner In which these people were dressed. From their reports It Is simply disgusting." Mrs. Grannls intimated that she, too, would beoome a watcher at tonight's perform ance, and make an Investigation for herself. The result of her watch she would make known tomorrow, and then If society people would not heed her warning she would force the police to act In the matter. There Is a law, she said, which calls for the suppres sion of all Immodest exposures having a tendency to corrupt public morals. PRINCETON'S TIGERS.

MR. BAYARD'S TABLE TALK. Our .Minister to l.ngliind Gracefully Com pliments the Onecn and the Scottish Corporation. By the United Tress. London, Nov. 30. Thomas F. Bayard, United States Ambassador, presided this evening at the annual dinner of the London Scottish corporation. In his toast to the Queen, Mr. Bayard said: "Her practice of domestic virtue and dignified private life entitle, her justly to the affection of her own people and all civilized mankind the world over." (Cheers.) In proposing the health of the Prince and Princess of Wales, mentioned by their Scotch titles, the Duke and Duch ess of Rothesay, the ambassador said: "This is a reminder that the kingdom is j;et a union. (Cheers.) The three-fold bond Is the rose, thistle and shamrock. Such a union will not be broken easily." Part of his toast to the corpora tion was: "I admit that 1 am an alien and a stranger In such an assembly, touched by a common impulse and inlluenced by a common feeling. Yet I cannot regard It as a solecism that I am called to the place of honor In the celebration. Charity concerns all man kind. It la a moral force swaying the human heart under all circumstances. "In the United States men live under a written constitution, which has the effect of staying the force of mere members and restraining the passions of mere majorities, and controls the ac cidental results of legislative power. Hence the saying In the United States that the constitution Is intended to protect minorities. So associations like the corporation can be regarded as moral constitutions protecting these, whom fate has placed In distress, from the storms of adversity." In closing the toast Mr. Bayard re ferred to the honorable history of the corporation throughout the 2J0. years ot ns existence. UREACII OF PROMISE CASE.

A rumor was freely circulated here today to the ef fect that the University of Pennsylva nia Foot Ball team had decided to send a challenge to Yale, In order to settle all dispute as to the championship, but It was decided to take no action on the question of again challenging Yale un til the result of the Princeton-Yale game tomorrow was known; then a meeting of the Athletic association will be called to decide upon the subject.

THE JUDGE DUCKED HIS HEAD And the Jury, Too, Sought Cover Until the Cruel war Had Ended In the Fatal Wouudlng of the ISIucgrass Witness. By the United Tress. Pittsburg, Nov. 30. A special to the Dispatch from Mt. Sterling, Ky., says: Tragic scenes, unparalleled In the his tory of the American bar, took place Thanksgiving day in the United States court room In this city. Court opened quietly, but With a tense nervous feeling, for half of those present expected trouble before the session was over, and adjourned amid the flying of bullets and the frightened cries of flying spectators. The man whose testimony precipitated the conflict will tile, while his assailant is now in Jail awaiting trial for his cold-blooded crime. Lee Sturgall, of Elliott county, was on trial for moonshlning, and United States Commissioner Thomas F. Hod- gers was on the bench. The arrest of Sturgall was brought about through the enmity of neighbors. Elliott county has its feud, and Sturgall Is a leader of one of the factions. A score of wit nesses about equally divided between the factions were summoned, and trouble had already occurred between these men. The feeling was Intensely bitter, and the court room was crowded with partfsans. The iliittle Commences. Green Atkins, one of Slurgall's lieu tenants, the third witness for the de finse, mounted the stand, was sworn and awaited Interrogation. Immediate ly Charles Watklns, of Carter county, arose from his seat, and amid death like stillness, walked deliberately up the court room and inside the railings, taking a position just behind Sturgall and opposite Atkins, upon whom his eyes glared in a significant manner. Atkins returned the look of hatred and smiled contemptuously, but his hand dropped to his gun pocket never theless. He hud been warned that Wat kins would shoot him If he gave cer tain testimony, but "this Hid not deter liltn. He answered promptly the com missioners questions, and was ex plaining a statement he had made when Watklns, with a cry of rage, drew his pistol and rushed forward. Atkins drew also and the bullets flew In all directions, causing a t-:tampede. Lawyers, spectators, the jury and court went to cover precipitately, while the ladies present rent the air witli screams. Atkins and Watklns fought like demons, overturning chairs and tables and scattering stationery until every bullet was gone, when United States Marshal Pat Pouch seized Wat klns just as' Atkins dropped to the floor unconscious. Talk of Lynching Now. Watklns was hurried to the county ja.ll, the ofllcers fighting oft Atkins' friends while surgeons were summoned for the wounded man. It was found that one bullett entered his abdomen and recovery Is Impossible. Atkins has a wife and children living in Elliott county near the home of Sturgall, whose witness he was. Wutkln3 is badly beaten up, but otherwise un hurt as yet. Atkins' friends are wild with rage, and swear they will kill Watklns. The latter claims that the dying man per jured himself on the witness stand. Watklns lives near the home of Oscar Morton, who was lynched at Beatty ville reconlily. The Sturgall fuctlon Is talking of another lynching. HUNTING l'OR GERMS. Inspector Kniipp of State Hoard of Health at .Montrose. Special to tho Seranton Tribune. Montrose, Nov. 80.

BAKER'S STRONG 150X EMPTY Lawyers and Relatives Are Surprised to l'ind the Deposit Safe Devoid of Con-tcnts-The .Mystery of tlio Man's Suicide Continues to Deepen, By tho United Press. New York, Nov. 30. Edward A. Bruen and Superintendent W. W. Morrison, of the Pullman car service of the Krle rail road, were seen by a reporter this after noon In Jersey City. They confirmed the Middletown dispatch as to Seely's Hight to Canada and of his riding on the rear car Friday night last. H. M. Baker, the conductor of the train, said: "The man who rode on that train was surely Keoiy. I recognized a picture in a newspaper on Tuesday as the man before I had been spoken to ub.mt U.

Here a change Is made for Mont real and Toronto in the Grand Trunk railroad and from this point they could not trace him any further. The third of Baker's safe deposit boxes In which it was hoped that so much evidence would be found, was opened today at the Park Safe Deposit company and It was found to be quite empty. The Baker family appeared even more surprised than the lawyers. Lawyer Ogden said that the fact of the box being empty only deepened the mystery and he was more positive now that there were more than two persons Implicated in the robbery. Frederick Baker when seen today had nothing to say more than that he was sure his father was Innocent and that he hoped to prove It. It was learned at the Park Safe De posit company that the late Frederick Baker had vhiited the vaultsand opened Ills section Friday, the day before his death. None of his family had visited the place since, except on the day when the first box was opened und today.- Toronto, Ont., Nov. 30. Samuel C.

According to a report to the state department from Frank Maion, United States consul general at Dresden, the development of the gas motor as a moans of propelling street tars Is piogivssing in Germany to a point where they may reasonably be expected to displace all other motors, even electric, on average rail roads. At $1.05 per 1,000 for gas the supply costs 1 3-5 cents per car mile, and the initial cost of the car does not differ much from that of a new horse car witlt its complement of horses. The gius rt.-ervoir staition for a large line occupied but small space and can be managed by one or two men, and the oars when not in service consume noth ing. One cleaning a week sulllces for the machinery, and u per lent, covers the annual repairs of a car, which should outlast two or three outfits of hoi'Fes. The system seems to be ad mirably adapted to lines having large fluctuations In volume of trnlllc, as, unlike !electilc power, the gas con sumption is exactly proportionate to the work required.

CERTAIN INDUSTRIES ACTIVE Iron Is in Good Demand and Production. I'pon the Whole, Is Increasing, but Prices Are Not What They Ought to 11c. By the United Press. New York, Nov. SO. The complete aueooss of the government loan has not, fcuys Dun, perceptibly effected business, ncr prevented an advance of foiviKii xchi!nge near to the expiating point. Pome exports erf pold are not improva ble. Meanwhile domestic trade and l;i-dur-tiy have not been little influenced by the heavy defalcation In one bank and minor disorders in two others, uni ty the failure of the Erie railway to meet interest on Its bonds. The clos-? of sugar rellneries will diminish the Industrial force more than it Is in creaHec' by the resumption of the lieth luhem Steel works and a few other concerns. The controlling fact Is that, although In two instances wages have been increased, the earnings of the working force and its purchasing power are not on the whole enlarging at present, and prices of the chief farm products do not materially improve. Stock Market Is Disappointing. The stock market disappoints those who reckoned on Improvement after the sale of bonds. The average for railroad stocks has declined :2 cents per share and for trust stocks J1.93. The great in dustries fairly maintain the production previously reported, but cannot be ex pected to increase at this season. A few more iron works have gone Into uperation, and the demand is reported larger, but there Is distinct weakness In prices, especially at Pittsburg, and bes eemer Iron, billets, nails and some structural forms are quoted lower. The rail combination has agreed to a reduc tion of $2 per ton for the. next year. Coke contracts are being made at cur rent rates. The shoe Industry continues to do remarkably well for the season, and the prospect for the spring business Is fairly good. In textile manufactures there is more Blrength In print clothes, but other cot tons are somewhat Irregular and weaker, and the woolen manufacturers still receive some orders for winter Roods. Money commands better rates ince the sale of bonds, but there is scarcely any Improvement In commer cial or Industrial demands and the flow of currency hitherward Is as large as It has been at any time since September. The failures this week have been In the United States 2X9 against 271 last year, and In Canada 30 against 48 last year. FOREST FIRES RAG I Mi.

EHPEROR CHARLES II, Accompanied by half the nobility of Austria, went to the Carlsbad Sprude Springs for the recovery of his health Six thousand six hundred horses, so the town records say, were necessary to convy the company to the place. The virtues of the water Is as great at the present day as it was in the time of Charles II, and although the ex pensc attached to a journey thither is not as great now as it was then, we are not all wealthy enough to under take it For such the virtue of the Carlsbad Spring is extracted. The Carlsbad Sprudcl Salt, obtained by evaporation, containing all the solid constituents of the water, can be ob taincd at any drug store. It Is the very best remedy for catarrh of the stomach, constipation, liver an kidney troubles, gout, rheumatism, etc, lk sure to obtain the genuine imported artich, which must have the signature of "hlsncr Mendclson Co., Sole Agts, New York, on every package. INDUSTRIAL TOPICS. The Delano shops are working full time. The Reading's Coleralne colliery ton nage Is Increasing rapidly. It Is predicted that the Jersey Central will this year earn 4 per cent. The Heading Is credited with having 1,000,000 tons of unsold coal on hand. The big Johnstown, O., anti-steel trust mill Is almost ready for operation. So Is the Denver mill. President Wilbur says the Lehigh Valley stock list will be ready about Dec. 10. It will hold 9,000 names. The Laurel Hill breaker, near Hazlo- ton, has been overhauled until it is now one of the best In the regeon. The Pennsy Is preparing to build a new branch railroad into the rich bi tuminous coal territory of Somerset county. Those who know deny that President Sloan Is out of sympathy with the movement to call a halt on the coal trade war. Edward Walters was on Thursday of ficially inducted Into the ofllce of presi dent of the Delaware, Susquehanna and Schuylkill railroad. The officials of the Silver Brook Coal conmpany are preparing to shut down No. 1 colllnry and evdry Indication seems to point to its total abandonment on Saturday. Contractor Fox has completed a lofty plane at the Honey Brook No. 3 strip ping, which will be utilized for the pur pose of hoisting coal by the Lehigh and Wllkes-Barre Coal company. During the past season POO canal boats were employed on the Delaware and Hudson canal. The total tonnage for 1S94 is 668,108, total tonnage for lS'JH, 700J03. showing a decrease of 132,7!i5 tons for 1X94. Philadelphia Inquirer: "Under all the circu mis lancets the reported ad vance In coal prices Is a force only ex ceeded In Its blind defiance of absolute facts by the determination to 'restrict the December output to 2,fjOO,000 tons." In addition to the action of the sales agents last Tuesday In determining upon restriction and fixing the circu lar rates, it was also decided to re quest the Anthracite Individual Oper ators' association to withdraw their resolution of several days ago, request ing the Lehigh Valley Coal company to equalize its line and tide prices. And now it is the coke producers who are "getting together." The Informa tion comeB from an official high In the H. C. Flick Coke company, that the price of coke Is to be advanced the first of next year, or within the next few weeks. The quoted present price is $1 a ton, but this figure has been shaded to 90 cents In some cases. The advance will be $1.25 at least and per haps 10 or 1" cents higher. In conse quence of the sliding scale now In vogue, the wages of the men will in crease In proportion. Saward: "With the small sizes of an thracite so plentiful as they are, and offered at so low a price, they become formidable rival to soft coal. This is particularly the case In the New York and New England markets. At so many places there are ordinances against the use of soft coal, the electric and other lines of transit are growing customers for 'buck.' The cleanliness Is greatly in its favor and now comes the further possible cheapness, and there are likely to be some Important developments in tills branch of the trade next year." This remarkable tale bears a Mauch Chunk date line: "A corps of sixteen engineers has been at work here for a week surveying through Carbon county the line of the Atlantic and Paclllc Railway Construction company, char tered in the state of Illinois and sup posed to be backed by a powerful Eng' llsh syndicate. The railway Is to be an air line across the continent from New yorK to san Francisco, and passes through Chicago, which city will be brought within thirteen hours of New York, and San Francisco forty-five hours of New York. The English syn dicate, it Is said, will take $ir0,000,000 worth of the bonds, and have placed a bill in the hands of Congressman Chillis, of Illinois, asking the govern ment's Indorsement of the bonds, In return for which the railway company is to turn over 51 per cent, of its capi tal stock to the government. Tho sur vey is now completed from the Mis. slaslppl to the Delaware river, and the construction is to begin next spring and the division between New York and Chicago finished within five years." STOCKS AXD BONDS. By the United Press. New York, Nov. Tho published state ment of President Havemeyer, of the American Sugar Refining company, an nouncing that owing to a lack of orders, me rennerics would Le closod led to a grand rush to sell the certificates at the opening of business today. An impression also prevailed that thu directors will cut the January dividend at their meeting early next week, and this accelerated the downward movement, There was a tre mendous crowd of brokers around the Sugar post at the opening and nearly ev ery one of them appeared to have sidling orders and the stock was depressed to 83't, after which, under purchases to cover Bhovt contructs, a recovery to 84!i ensiled. In some quarters there was i disposition to criticise President Have meyer, and It was stated that his action at this time was due mainly to a desire to Influence congress and head off the move ment to place sugar on the free list. In dependent rellners, however, assert th.it the business has been anything but profit able of late and that Havemeyer was lust Ifled by trade conditions In closing up the refineries. Distillers was another weak spot In the early trading, and on the un nouncement of the proposed reorganize tlon the price dropped from 9 to 7. Chi (ago Uas was next taken In hand and un der pressure of long stock fell 2 to C'J, The Heaviness or me industrial rtoiiii was due in a great measure to a rumor that there had been a defalcation In one of the trusts. The railway lists were wenk at the start, but then Improved Vi to Subsequently the selling of the Grangers was resumed on a large scale. On the Oc tober statement of the Burlington and Qulncy It wag discovered that the road had been operated for 49.28 per cent, and this created a more bearish feellmr, The selling which followed carried Bur lington down 114, St. Paul 1, Northwost Rock Island New Jersey Central was heavy and fell 2 points, Manhattan sold down l'i, Western Union 1.

Patrick lloylc's Thumb Bitten Off by a Dead Pis lie Thought the Pig Was Pcad-Ilud reeling l'.xists ltetwcen Hotelier Hug and Smoker Wein. Over n Cow Trade. Patrick Boyle, of S.'iO Fig street, is a coal digger by occupation, and in the killing season he butchers pigs. A friend of hiu in the North End sent word to him that he had a fat pig to send to the happy hunting grounds and Boyle went up yesterday to provide his friend with Christmas pork. The unsuspecting animal was led forth to be slaughtered; Boyle, with sleeves rolled up and armed with a cleaver, smote the pig and th'-n watched it until Its blood had oozed out. The carcass was put through the for mula, of scalding in a vat of hot water nnd not the suspicion of a squeal came from the apparently deceased porker. It was a half hour afterward before Boyle began to subject the animal to the shaving process, nnd when he did he stuck his hand In the pig's mouth so as to get a firm hold In assisting to move the animal a few feet higher on the board, imd Imagine his horror when the pig gave signs of life, closed its mouth and actually bit the top of his thumb off. He worked no more but went home and sent for Dr. Manly, who had to amputate an inch of the thumb bone. Boyle was afraid that blood polosn would set In, but the doc tor quieted his fears. They Traded Cows. Butcher Fred Hug, of Plttnton ave nue, and Smoker Welnz, of Prospect avenue, made a dicker two months ago that resulted in an exchange of cows. The butcher had a bovine that he rep resented was a first-class one for giv ing milk, and Smoker had one that was just fit to be, butchered, but was not any great shakes In supplying milk for till the little Smokers. Mug's cow did not come up to expectations and this so disgusted Smoker that he visited the death penalty on her yesterday. He was also looking for Hug and It was not by any means for tho purpose of shaking hands with him.

It Is alpo true that Thoir.aa B. Reed, as speaker, and William Mc Klnlcy as chairman of the ways nnd means committee of the Fifty-fifth con gress' would be better located for ef ficient public service than either would be as president. The- wish of General Harrison to remain free from official cares could well be respected sby the party, inasmuch as IiIb one term as chief executive will go down In history as one of the cleanest and most credit able administrations we have ever had. It Is our opinion that a "new man," as the phrase is understood in politics, is quite as likely to be the next presi dential nominee of the Republican party as Is any of the three or four familiar candidates who will enter the next convention with something of the odor of factionalism attaching to each one. This new man may be n western man Indeed, sometimes we think the logic of the situation points that way, to a man say like Cushman K. Davis, of Minnesota or he may be one of the two or three excellent Republicans who conspicuously represent the Imperial Republicanism of Industrial Pennsylva nia. The candidacy of Mr. Grow, for Instance; of Senator Quay, or perhaps better than either, because peculiarly representative of the sentiment which lust month rolled up In his name? the massive Indorsement of a quarter-of- a-mllllon popular plurality, and be cause freer than either from past com plications, the candidacy of General Daniel H.

Secretary Morton contends that the distribution of free seeds by congress men who want to reap A harvest of votes has reached the proportions of a public nuisance; and he Is right. Uncle Sam's mission In life is much superior to that of a seed peddler. wants to know If any Susque an want-i the Honesdule postof- The rejected political wooer In Col orado is naturally quite disgusted with the experiment of woman suffrage; but from all accounts the victorious voter I sisted that reorganization in this Btate is Herald liannu tice. Says the Harrisburg Patriot: "The 'leadership of the Democratic party In Pennsylvania bus been so weak, so noto riously lnelllclent, so wrapped up In spoils gathering upon tho wreck of party organi zation and devotion, as to bo despised by Democrats generally. This feeling was so well developed prior to the election, and Indeed for several years past, that no matter who might have been president, what might have been an operative econ omic law of tho land, or who the Demo cratic randldato for governor, tho Repub licans would have had a walk-over. That Is why Mr. Slngerly himself asks for re organization of the party and what Is meant to bo understood when It is ni ls more than satisfied with Its success. The trouble with LI Hung Chang is that he knows too much. There la still a good deal of the "cruclfy-hlm!" In human nature, whatever the country, the race or the occasion. The Thanksgiving day foot ball battle between Harvard and Pennsylvania, we are told, "retrieves foot ball's repu tation." That Is partly true; only five men were demolished. One day, In the Wilkes-Ilarre paper", Scrunton musicians were "hogs." The next day they were gentlemen and scholars. What next? It Is a singular fact'that the 'newspa pers seldom give up pages of space to Intellectual combats among the col leges. A good rule for the short session of congress would be to say nothing and saw wood. point at this time Is that the American public need not lose sleep through anx iety lest It should experience a short age of presidential timber. When Philadelphia nnd Allegheny got through at the Harrisburg pie counter, they will please tip a wink to the remainder of the commonwealth. A Friendly Hint. At the hours of noon and nightfall, say for an hour at each time, the street car service in this city ought to be doubled. If It were doubled, we be. lleve that the patronage would Increase at those times sufficient to cover the In creased cost. Hundreds of men now walk to and from their homes, ut the dinner und supper hours, because they do not care to take chances aboard the densely-packed street cars. A habit thus formed governs their travel at other hours, also, and will, In time communicate Itself to others, who yet ride. Even If the Traction company were under no obligations to the public, It would promote Its own best interests by improving Its service in these par ticulars. The fact that It is, to a very large extent, a creature of public favor dds to the logic of our argument. From what we know of General Man ager Beetein we do not believe that If his resources and authority were ample, he would starve the car service In this city or permit one unnecessary moment to delay a radical Improvement of "stock and fixtures." If, therefore, as we partly suspect, he Is restrained from needed expenditures by distant Influ. ences, the fact should be brought to their attention that trolley investments In this city cannot be made to pay until the reasonable demands of the people shall flrBt have been respected.- Scran- ton, In these matters, Is not patterned after patient and long-suffering Phila delphia. The boasted Populist gain in the nevt presidential election is a good ways off. There are merchants who do not ud- vei'tlse; but even then, the sheriff some times does It for them. The Republicans of Wayne county will doubtless be highly edified to learn from the Democratic organ in their counity that if they permit C. Fred Wright to fill out the unexpired congressional term of his brother, the late Myron B. Wright, because of his superior knowledge of his brother's relinquished work, they will be yield ing to a porcine "Demand." The eager ness of the political enemy to decide this matter will, however, scarcely be accepted in lieu of a regulur Republi can conference. Extra street cars at noon and night fall Is an issue that would sweep the country. necessary, Apropos of the suggestion thut the Pennsylvania delegation to the next na tional Republican convention might wish to favor Senator uuay with a com plimentary vote for the presidency, the Philadelphia Inquirer says: "Quuy has played a prominent part In Washington. He elected Harrison president. That can not be denied, even by his worst enemies. He saved tho MeKlnley tariff bill when only wise statesmanship could force a vote. He remains the leader of the Penn sylvania Republicans." And It might have added that If by any ehanee he should ever become president, the nation would have on executive of shrewdness, gumption and wholesome common sense one better than nine-tenths of the men who have sat In tho white house chair.

Ptiblio OUR HOLIDAY OPENING, ANNOUNCED TO TAKE PLACE FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 30, PI Nil II. l)L E13, Parlor Furniture Now that winter has come, the alley filth mill should treat Itself to a disin fectant bath. Those W llkes-Barre Journalists who recently aired a fictitious grievance of the Luzerne county section of the Sym phony orchestra, and churned false charges against Scranton Into great hunks of foam, will need our sincere sympathy now that their work has been abruptly undone. Perhaps they will hereafter first be sure of their facts. 'Absentee congressmen, It Is noticed. rarely absent themselves on pay-dav. Plenty of Good Timber, Henry McFai'land, the Philadelphia Record's Washington correspondent. finds, In talking with leading men of both parties, that "there Is a very gen etal belief among them that Senator William U. Allison, of Iowa, Is more likely to be the next Republican nom inee for the presidency than Mr. Reed, air. narrison, Mr. MCKiniey, or any other man who has been mentioned." He says they reach this conclusion In the following manner: "Reed, who now seems to them to be the strongest of all, they regard as very likely to suffer In prestige by the doings of the big Republican majority In the next house, o say nothing of the prospect that he will not be able to make anything like the personal record which he made in the Fifty-first congress. His work as a parliamentarian they regard as prac tically finished, and they Bee no other way in which he can especially dig. itlngulsh himself, while he will be con stantly exposed to all the perilB of a presidential candidate who must act on delicate questions within a year or two it the national convention. They also regard Harrison and MeKlnley as like ly to lose strength, believing like most politicians that they began their ad vances on the presidency at Wast a year too soon. These men believe, too, that unless Reed should be. nominated no eastern man can be. They quote Thomas C. Piatt and Matthew 8. Quay The Question of Reapportionment. Upon the basis of the census of 1S30. the congressional ratio of representa tion in this state is one member to every 173,1)01 populutlon. J lie appor tionment of the two congressmen now elected at large to regular districts, as well as the readjustment of the present regulur districts so that they will more nearly conform to the ratio, will be a duty which will devolve up'on the next legislature, and It will obviously be an Important duty. The Phlladlephia Press claims that Philadelphia will get one of these con gressmen and Allegheny the other, since each county already has one more ratio than it now has members of the national house of representatives. The problem left to the legislature will be to equitably distribute the ratios among the twenty-one remaining districts. Of these districts eight fall 10,000 or more below the ratio in populutlon; namely, the Eighth, with a populutlon of 102,3ti"; the Tenth, with J.4lJ,05; the Eleventh, with 142.0SS; the Thirteenth, with lr.-l,- 1G3; the Fifteenth, with 140,227; the Seventeenth, with 1U8.795; the Twenty- sixth, with 151,3118, and the Twenty seventh, with 138,320. The Sixth, Sev enth, Fourteenth, Sixteenth, Eigh teenth, Nineteenth and Twenty-eighth districts come so near the ratio that little if any change will be necessary while the Ninth, with 223,958; the Twelfth, with 201,203; the Twentieth. with 213,202; the Twenty-first, with 2-ir,- 7-10; the Twenty-fourth, alreudy having, exclusive of Its Allegheny portion, 180, 09G, and the Twenty-fifth, with 198. 60S. considerably exceed the ratio. If we assume that the Twenty-fourth district, with Allegheny excluded, could stand without, further change, the problem that presents itself is how to equalize the facts that the 1,171,990 Inhabltantsof the small districts have eight represen tatives In congress while the 1,082,777 In habitants of the lurge districts have only five. Coming down to the local significance of thia question, we have presented the fact that our own district is 31,81.3 under size, while the Twelfth Is 27,302 too large. If the political element were eliminated, tfothlng would be easier than to tuke from Luzerne approxi mately 30,000 population, and attach It to Lackawanna. Assuming that a modification of the present district boundaries Is necessary, this might be accomplished, if from Luzerne there were1 detached and annexed to the Eleventh district the 33,113 persons In habiting Avoca, Exeter borough, Ex eter township, Hughestown borough, Marcy township, PIttston borough, Plttston township, Plains, West Pitts- ton, Wyoming and Yatesville. The two districts would then both be ds near the requisite ratio as legislation could well place them. The Eleventh district would have 175,201 Inhabitants and the Twelfth would have 168,090, upon the China's disintegration cannot come too soon nor be one whit too thorough. CHATS BY THE WAY. It has often been remarked thut tact will accomplish moro than talent In ul most every walic ot. life. A man of talent who Hub dealings with fellow individuals becomes ulmost useless In tho endeavor to Improve humanity unless he ulso pos sesses a certain amount of tact. An anuis- Ing instance of theubsenceof tnct upon the part of a well meaning clergyman of thin city Is given by a reporter upon one of the Scranton dailies, whose good nature caused him to puss over lightly un nffront to me proresslon thut might huve moused the lie of the ordinary man. The re porter had been seeking information of the clergyman regarding church matters, which hud been freely given. Throughout the Interview the conduct of the scribe had been gentlemanly. In fact the young man referred to Is noted throughout the local Journalistic circles for his uniform politeness anil courteous manners. How ever, as he thanked the minister for the Information and was preparing to take his departure, the clergyman suddenly turned to him and with the air that one would assume in addressing a criminal who was undergoing a life sentence ns a penalty for atrocious deeds, said: "Sir, ure you a Christian? The reporter re plied with the statement that he was a church member and was endeavoring to lead a Christian llle. The minister turned to another clergyman present with an expression of astonishment upon his face und remarked: "Just think of It! Here Is a reporter who says that he Is a Chrlstlunl" There Is no question thut the Intentions of the good man were light; und, sad to remark, many things occur dally thut would perhaps to a certain extent Justify the minister's implied opinion of newspaper men in general and Scranton scribes In particular. Hut It Is doubtful If the enthusiastic worker in the Mas ter's vineyard will meet with phenomenal success as a missionary to tho benighted scribblers of Scranton unless the painful abruptness of his initlutory work Is somc whut modified. Manager I.alne, of the Frothlngham, was one of the happiest men In the city yesterday. The sule of seats for the Jefferson "Kip Van Winkle" Thanksgiv ing performance outdistanced the records of the house. Notwithstanding the ad vanced prices deniunded by Mr. Jefferson before he would consent to make an en gagement for the holldny, the house was well filled. The people were determined to see the world-famous Impersonation of the hero of li ving's charming tale of the Culskills ut any price. The house wus well filled at both entertainments and in theevenlngmany occupied standing room. Manager I.aine, therefore, Is correspond ingly happy. I seo that the talking fiend still Infests the theater. By the talking llcnd, I meun the knowing Individual who entertains members of the audience sitting near him by the gratuitous ulrlng of opinion during the rendition of music or dlulogue on the singe. This smurt personuge, of course, objects to high hats. To him the high theater headgeur la a nuisance. At the same time, however, he Invariably assists the high hat In making the audi ence generally miserable by keeping up his senseless gabble, so that people shall neither hear nor see. Would that some mystic power could enable tho theatrical talking fiend to see himself as he ap pears to his neighbors In the audience. There Is a probability that the numerous foot bull accidents of Thursday will lead to a revision of the rules of the game as played In America Broken noses, limbs und backs indlcute that the sport ut pres ent is conducted principally In the Inter est of the physician and undertaker.

When you go west, as they euy, and pass over Ohio and Indiana (that Is to say, MeKlnley and Harrison, for neither Sherman nor Foinker -Is now considered), Allison Is really the only avallablo man you can find." Any discussion of this question at this time must be regarded as In the nature of pastime speculation, rather than se rious advocacy. Realizing this, It Is proper to ask why there is any neces sity for choosing one of the long-term leaders of the Republican party as Its next presidential nominee. Senator Al lison is an able, experienced and con servative man, whose service for the party has been conspicuously brilliant. But he could be of quite as much use to the nation as the party's tariff leader In Harrison-Cleveland vote of two years ago, would be to subtract 220 Demo cratic plurality from the Twelfth dis trict and add the same to the Eleventh, me same territory In the last spring election and In the recent gubernatorial election -returned Republican plurali ties; and while their political affiliations are an uncertain quantity, we believe the general trend In Luzerne's upper end Is toward the Republican party. xne moral sentiment which urges legislative restriction of posted litho graphs, in order that nude pictures and other Illustrations of a debasing char acter may be excluded from the bill boards and dead walls of our oltles, Is well founded.

THE CBUNCiLMEM SAY YES Permit tlic Suburban Track on Frank lin Avenue to He Moved. CHANGE MEANS DOUBLE TRACK That's Why the Property Owners Opposed the Passage of the Ordinnncc at Last Night's Meeting of Select Council. That Mysterious Fire. Last nlg-ht's session of select council witnessed a vary spirited three-cornered contest amonir the. Scrnnton Traction company, Franklin avenue property owners und members of coun cil. When the final bout waa ended a vote gave the decision In favor of the company, which was gi anted permis sion to remove the track of the Sub urban Railway company to the east side of Franklin avenue, between Spruce street and Lackawanna avenue, the intention being to secure sufficient room to lay a double track. Joseph J. Jermyn, James L. Council, of Mfgargel Connell; James M. Ev erhart, and C. B. Scott were among the opposition property owners present and spoke against the passage of the ordinance. The Traction company rep resentative, P. W. Gallagher, was ac corded the privilege of the floor and presented arguments why the measure should be passed. When the motion was finally made the ordinance passed first reading by a 10-4 vote. Early in the meeting the street rail ways committee presented a favorable report, signed by Messrs. Williams, chairman; Kellow anj Manley, and the ordinance was received to come up in Its regular order. Mr. Manley later called for a consideration of the ordi nance. Durr .Made Objection. Mr. Durr, In behalf of the property owners present, presented blue prints showing that It Franklin avenue were double-tricked, only nine feet would Intervene between the sides of cars and the curb lines. Mr. Lauer thought that property owners "should not Btand in the way of the golden prosperity of the city" and suggested that Mr. Gallagher be al lowed to state reasons why the com pany desired the ordinance passed. The substance of Mr. Gallagher's re marks at this point and later In the meeting were: The company does not propose to use one of the tracks for storing cars as has been rumored, but desires to facilitate transportation. Mr. Thomas called for the reading of petitions for and against the passage of the ordinance. The petitions were signed as follows: For Peter Zeigler, YV. A. Boomer, Blttenbendcr Co., James Ferguson, A. B:;emer, Mary Moore, w. II. Whyte, Union Transfer company, per H. E. Hand, W. H. Jackson, Joseph Godfrey, estate of P. J. Byrnes, M. A. Byrnes, M. M.

Were Not Property Owners. Following the reading of the petitions Mr. Durr said that only three on the affirmative petition aro property own ers. The arguments used by Mr. Jer myn, Mr. Scott, Mr. Everhait and Mr. Connell agninst the passage of the ordinance were: That a double track would Interfere with the trucking of the most Important jobbing block in the city, a block that has no rear alleyway; that property will depreciate 40 or 50 per cornt In value If the street Is double tracked; that trucking which Is now lm peded would be almost Impossible with two sets of rails In the street, and that the present single track has a capacity 100 times greater than Its present use. To a question by President Chltten den, Mr. Gallagher replied that the com pany Intends to run certain Inward bound cars from Penn avenue, through Mulberry street, to Franklin avenue. The ordinance passed first and second readings on the following 10 to 4 vote:' Ayes Kelly, Wllllums, Clark, Man ley, Schwenk, McCann, Kellow, Burns, Westpfahl and Lauer. Nays Thomas, Durr, Wagner and Chittenden. An ordinance reported favorably by the streets and bridges committee that houses be numbered and that street signs be erected on corners was re celved and ordered printed. Mayor Cornell's appointment of David It. Penman as Inspector of the substructure work on the Linden Street bridge was referred to committee. Mr Durr's resolution providing that tin mayor shall, If necessary, appoint three additional Inspectors, one for the Lin den Street and two for the Roaring Brook bridge, wus referred to commit tee. Mr. Durr explained that one In spector could not properly follow work being performed simultaneously on dif ferent sections of a bridge. Instructions for the Chiefs. The meeting concurred In the reso, lutlon of common council directing the ohlefs of the police and fire depart ment to Investigate the fire In the Scranton Knitting company's plant in the Howley Bros.' building. Mr. Lauer attempted to amend the resolution by a provision that the investigation should be conducted "without unnec- essary expense." The proposition was received with roars of laughter and Mr. Lnuer withdrew the amendment and moved that no aid be employed outside the regular police department, The amendment prevailed. An ordinance providing for a main sewer In the Eleventh dlstrlot passed first and second reading. EXHIBITION TONIGHT. Excellent Views to Be Shown by Professor E. II. Call.

Dr. J. W. Walk, of Philadelphia, ad dre3sed a large audience at the Young Men's Christian Association hall last night under the auspices of the Board of Associated Charities. He was In troduced by Uev. Rogers Israel, who In ,felicltlou3 terms referred to the subject which was to be discussed. In opening his lecture, Dr. Walk re- ferred to the great Influence possessed by the press in assisting the board to carry on the work, and expressed his high appreciation of the. services they had already rendered. He first re viewed the field of labor In which the charitable organizations work. The whole community, he said, was divided into the independent and the dependent sections; the former supported them selves and needed on asittftanee or favor, and the latter class Included all those dependent upon the first men tioned class for aid and assistance. The dependent were divided Into three elapses: The A class, criminal; B, vicious, and C, Insubordinate. Poverty Is a Disease. With regard to destitutes nnd their tlief. Dr. Walk paid a high tribute to the Jewish people a the pioneers In the work of private relief and then minute ly explained the errors which had crept nto the system of charity giving, tne great blunder being made In misinter preting the scriptural quotation, "The poor ye have with you always, ana egardlng alms-giving as a virtue. 1 he great mistake was in not considering he benefit to the recipients. Poverty Is a disease of humanity and ought to be eradicated, and the time will come when It will be abolished and It would ie the fault of civilization if the prob lem tvas not worked out. The out-door relief system has been copied from the English poor law sys tem, and the speaker then explained, how, through the errors of that sys tem, people eventually claimed charity as a right and labored under the delu sion that the world owed every man a living. The alnis-hnuses were the pre ventative to this, and the time must come when all out-door relief must he taken away. The foundation of pau perism was the influence of English poor-law, and many large cities were taking up the question and abolishing poor law. This had been done in Phila delphia, during a spasm of reform and economy, when $100,000 was reduced from the appropriation to the poor board, this ensuring In nil out-rellef being abolished. What was the result? The extra calls on private charity did not make a ripple on the Increase, und the population of the alms houses de creased instead of Increasing, as was reasonably expected. The. result was that In the first twelve years after the change was made $1,000,000 on the whole expenditure was economized us com pared with the last twelve years under the old system. Out-door relief In theory was not charity, money taken by a tax collector could not be regarded as charity, it must be given. t .Method I'scd in I'liiladolpnia. Dr. Walk then described fully the technical methods by which the organ ized charity associations worked In Philadelphia, and at the conclusion of his address questions were asked by Rev Rogers Israel. W. T. Smith, E. j. Lynott, W. Gaylord Thomas, Rev. War ren Partridge. Luther Keller and others, and were answered In detail by the lecturer. FAIL KAUVAR AT ACAnFM V. It Was Presented in an Excellent .Munncr Last Night. Steele Maekaye's play, 'Taul Kau var," was produced at the Academy of Music last evening by a good company before a large audience.

THE SCRAETON TliUJUNE SATURDAY MORNING-, DECEMBER 1, 1SU. Pastors and Their Hard Work Kcligiotis Developments of One Kcclt in All Our Churehcs. AUXILIARY ACTIVITIES NOTED .Carefully Compiled Compendium of News nd Personal Mention Helming to the Churches and the Benevolent and Charitable Religious Societies. President Augustus II. Stronff, D. D.. LL. D., has written three very able ar ticles on "Ethical Monism" in the Examiner, which have aroused criti cism in many quarters, and especially so among the Baptist denomination in whose org-an the essays appeared. Dr. Strong says that "tt Is not too much to say that the monistic philosophy, in its vurious forms, holds at present almost undisputed sway in our American uni versities. Harvard and Yale, Brown and Cornell,, Princeton and Rochester, Toronto and Ann Harbor, Boston and Chlcstgo, are all teaching it." Monism has ever been regarded as pantheistic, nnd against this Mr. Strong fences in Ills system with remarkable ingenuity. The crucial test of Monism are the fact of sin and the atonement of Christ, and to harmonize these theological doctrines with his philosophy, taxes both the, president's reasoning and exegesis. He iiccounts for personalities by saying that God has limited and circumscribed Jilmself, and to the objection how can there be innumerable personalltlus and yet but the one substance, he falls back on the doctrine of the Trinity, which teaches three infinite personalities in the one substance of God, and whoever believes this cannot consistently deny that in the same substance there are multitudinous Unite personalities. Or thodoxy will hardly accept such a state ment as the following of the Son of Ciod: "It is Impossible that He (Christ) who is the natural life of humanity should not be responsible for the sin committed by His own members." Dr. D. C Hughes, of the Jackson Street Baptist church, will read a paper on "Monism" next Monday morning be fore the Pastors' union, when he will discuss the philosophy of Dr. Strong in Its relation to orthodox theology. .Missionary Aid. The response to the donation party held by the ladles of the Green Hidge Presby terian church was liberal.

Their labors have been very successful, and a church was recently organized with thirty mem bers; This is the first Polish Baptist church In the United States. Last Thursday the several chnpters of the Epworth league movement in our city heartily responded to the. appeal' sent forth by the secretary of the Missionary society for uid. This society has felt the pressure of hard times ami its usefulness has been crippled for the lack of funds. The contributions did not sutlice to defray the current obligations, and an appeal was sent forth to the young people of the Epworth league all through the United States to come to the rescue.

Health Hints and Rules of -Hygiene lvv.-j..y Suggestions That ,M;iy Save.YoU Many a Doctor's Bill. WISDOM TOK THE HOUSEHOLD These Hints Don't Cost Much, Are Not Copyrighted, nnd if They Don't Do You Any Good, They'll Not Do You Any Harm. A recent bulletin of the state board of health embodies some valuable in formation about diphtheria. It says: "Whenever a child or young person has a sore throat, with a bad odor to its breath, especially if It has fever. It should immediately be separated from all other persons, excepting necessary attendants, until it is ascertained by a physician whether it has diphtheria or some other coinuulcable disease. Mild cases may communicate malignant and fatal forms of the disease. Diphtheriu is believed to be caused by a special poison (eontaglum) which may be con veyed to persons previously unaffected, by personal contact, by infected cloth ing, rags, hair or paper or by any of the discharges of the body of a person sick of tho disease. The seeds or germs of this terrible disease may be received from anything which has touched the sick person, as air, food, clothing, sheets, blankets, furniture, toys, books, wall paper, curtains, cats, dogs nnd flics. The discharges from the throat, nose and mouth are believed most fre quently to contain the germs of the dlseaseand to communicate it to others, but the discharges from the kidneys nnd from the bowels are also dnn gerous. The diphtheria poison lias great vitality, and may lie dormant in clothing, blankets, papers and houses for weeks, and even months. It seems to be able to travel in the air of sowers, and thus to pass from house to house; also to rise in the emanations from putrid privies and cesspools. It can also, undoubtedly, Infect foods, milk nnd water, and with thorn enter the bodies of children. Tho time which may Intervene between exposure to the pioson of diphtheria nnd tho appear ance of the symptoms of the disease varies. It may be from two to six days; the average is variously stated at from six to ten duys, but the time may be extended to five or six weeks. "Adults, whose services nre not need ed, should keep away from the disease When necessity requires one to visit such house, the clothing should after wards bo changed and a bath taken be fore going where there is a child. Be ware of any person who has a sore throat. Do not kiss or take the breath of such a person. Do not drink from the same cup, or use any article handled by such a person until it Is disinfected. Whenever a child complains of a sore throat, or Is In the least hoarse, itshould receive careful attention from Its par ents or friends until It recovers. When ever the disease Is prevalent In any dis trlct, children should be removed from the day und Sabbath schools. They should also; at these times, not travel In the public cars or public carriages, the upholstered seats of which muy har bor the poison. Parents in whose fami lies the disease has broken out, who are able to do so, may send their children unaffected with the disease, to homes in which there is no one liable to con tract It. But whenever such removals are made, the children should not mingle with the public until after the lapse of two weeks. From families in which this disease Is prevalent, children must not attend school, church, or any public as sembly, und adults should likewise ab- slain from attending church and public assemblies us much as possible. Close attention should be paid to the sources of the water and the food supplies. If lMissible, only tho purest water should be used. If there Is any doubt about the purity of the water, boil It thorough ly before using it. Food and milk should not be used which come from a house in which there Is diphtheria (or any con tagious disease), for these articles may carry tho germs of the disease. Perfect cleanliness should be enjoined in the house and all its surroundings. Sewer gas must not be permitted to enter the house. All foul odors must be destroyed in privies und cess-pools by the appro prlate disinfectants. Let the house re ceive all the pure air und sunlight pos sible. Do not send your clothing to a public! laundry to be washed during an epidemic of diphtheria." "It Is of vital Importance," says a well known authority, "that an upper opening be kept in every living room, kitchen and sleeping room, for the es cape or tno toui air emanating irom life, labor and decay. Rooms that are not provided with an upper register or a window ventilator can be perfectly ventilated by lowering the window fraction of nn Inch. This imperceptible opening is a regular life Insurance. It this precaution Is heeded all winter long, day and night, there will be a re dilution in lung nnd throat diseases. In consumptive cases thla luw should be rigidly enforced." We have heretofore alluded to the excellence of the common apple as a remedial diet. And now we havo the American Practitioner's word for it that the phosphorous in the apple Is admirably adapted for renewing the es sential nervous matter lecithin of the brain nnd spinal cord. It is, perhaps, for the same reason, rudely understood. that old Scandinavian traditions ropnr sent the apple as the food of the gods, wild, when they felt themselves to be growing feeble and Infirm, resorted to this fruit, renewing their powers of mind und body. Also the acids of the apple are of singular use for men of sedentary habits, whose livers are slug gish in tiction, those acids serving to eliminate from the body noxious mat ters, which, If retained, would make tho brain heavy nnd dull, or bring about Jaundice or skin eruptions and 'other allied troubles. Some such experience must have led to the custom of taking apple-saucs with roast pork, rich goose and other like dishes. The malic acid of ripc'npples, either raw or cooked, will neutralize any excess of chalky matter engendered by eating too much meat. It is nlso the fact that such ripe fruits as the tipple, the pear and -the plum, when taken ripe nnd without tiugar, diminish acidity In the stomach, rather than provoke It. Their vegetable Baucea nnd Juices are converted Into alkali carbonntes, by the chemical ac tion of stomach Juices, which tend to counteract acidity. HEALTH FOR THE MILLION: Rub cold cream on the nose before go ing out Into tho cold If you wish to keep it from becoming roil. Add a tablespoonful of powdered borax to the bath, as It will soften the water and prove very Invigorating. It Is well to burn pi no tar occasionally In a Blck room, as it Is an excellent disin fectant, and It also Induces sleep. It la well to apply powdered alum to a 'ever sore: this will prevent It from be coming unslightly or-noticeable. Tq prevent tho hair from comlnc- out. nib into the roots twice a week, a mlx- ure of ixiy. rum, canihafldes. castor oil and curbomitq of. ammonia,' .Tho simplest. ruHUidy for rough and rel hands Is mutton suet"-nibbed ipto the hiilids (the Imiids Jlret being made .very warmi, hi nutni ana wearing loose kid gloves all night, v' Tho breath may be kept sweet bv usl:i a tooth powder which contains orris root, and by rinsing the mouth with water Into which a few drops of bisterlne or tincture of myrrh have been put. Try vinegar to cleanso your hands when they arc very dirty from work stains; if it fulls to do it try ammonia in the bath water. Try rubbing with mutton suet and wearing loose kid gloves every night. If your nose bleeds, apply Ice to the nose and the back of the neck, also to the roof of the mouth. A plug of dry cottn. or cot ton wetted lirst with strom' alum wuler, or dipped in powder of tannin will be ef fective. A physician says this Is the best cure tr Insomnia: When you go to bed, place tho right hand directly over the pit of the stomach. This, he says, draws tho blood away from the head and soon In duces sleep, Linseed oil is said to be a cure for corns, both hard and soft. If they nre indurated and very painful the relief it gives In a Bhort tmle Is most grateful. Bind on a soft rag saturated with the linseed oil and continue to dampen it with the oil icvery night and morning until tho corn can be removed easily und without pain. SEASONABLE RECIPKS.

JOHN SEBASTIAN, G.P.A., Chicago, LUCY DALY AND THE CASINO PICKANINNIES IN "THZ PASSING SHOW." One day during the long run of "The Passing Show" at the New York Ca sino, a portion of the ptckanninles went on a strike. Miss Lucy Daly started immediately on a voyage of discovery. After some hours search, she had un earthed six new ptckanninles who could dance. These six, with the six pickan innies who had refused to strike ap peared In the evening with Miss Daly In "The Passing Show." They acquit ted themselves remarkably well con sidering the short time they had for rehearsal. Many in the audience were not aware of the change, but the strik ers meanwhile had not been Idle. A meeting of the strikers was called to order at 9.30 on the steps of the Mystic Flats, Just opposite the Casino stage door. The rlng-learder, a Beml-deml darkey, with light hair, to whom the management strongly objected on the IN LOCAL THEATERS. There are no more popular people in the dramatic profession than the Gor mans, John, James and George, who will appear here tonight at the Acad emy of Music In their new comedy, "The Gllhuolys Abroad." No doubt their many friends will greet them with a crowded house. Their new de parture is said to be a great go. John Gorman as Jonathan Tubbs and George Gorman as Owen Gllhooly are two of the big hits In farce-comedy this season. "The Ollhoolys Abroad" will! be the at traction at the Academy of Music to night. II II II "The Passing Show," the attraction at the Frothlngham on Monday even ing, Dec. 3, is well named, for it Is a burlesque made up of hits from the most popular plays, operas and special ties of the play. The beauty of It all is that these glimpses are given by actors fully capable of performing such deli cate tasks. What eles but a thoroughly artistic and enjoyable entertainment can be expected when such people as J. E. Henshaw, George Schiller, of "Evan geline" fame; Charlie Ross. Lucy Daly, Vernona Jarbeau, Gus Plxley, William Cameron and a score of other leading people who have made names for them selves appear on the stage. Altogether there are fully 110 people connected with the show. Among these are the pickaninnies, living pictures, and no end of novelties. II II II "The Crust of Society" will be pre sented Tuesday night at the Academy of Music, and will also serve to intro duce Miss Carrie Turner's company of players from the Fifth Avenue theater. New York, including such favorites as Edgar L. Duvenport, Eugene Ormond, Joseph E. Whiting, Herbert Ayllng, Marlon Abbott, Carrie Radcllffe, Jean Chamblin, Kate Williams, Hawley Francks, Donald Johns and Carrie Turner. "The Crust of Society" Is an adaptation of Dumas' celebrated drama 'Le Demi Monde." Several versions of this famous French dramatist's works are played on the English stage, and if reports are to be credited, the one we are to see has met with great success. The mo3t elaborate and effective nro- duotion of "Faust" ever given in this olty will be here for one night only, Dec. 5, at the Frothlngham. George Laroch will assume the role of Mephis- to, in which he has no equal: Miss Isa bel Pitt Lewils, the role of Marguerite; while a well-balanced company will fill the other parts. A chorus of well trained voices will render Oounod's beautiful music. The scenic and elec tric effects will be the most ponderous ever staged In this olty. The Brocken scene will be given In Its entirety, In cluding the wonderful railn of fire. which is considered one of the best pieces of stage craft extant. II II II Do you want to laugh? If so, you will have a chance to do so on Wednes day evening at the Academy of Music, for "The Two John's" Comedy com pany are to appear there. These funny fat men have made themselves fam ous the world over. The management have brought together again J. C. Stewart and John Hart, who have been separated for seven years, and have surrounded them with with a very strong company of actors and special ty people, among whom are Miss Mabel Meredith, the California operatic star, whose wonderful soprano voice has placed her ait the top of her profession; the Bijou quartette, who are styled the "Kings of Harmony;" James T. and Miss Kate Edwards, America's travesty sketch artists; Edward Sco fleld, the eminent Irish comedian, and a galaxy of pretty girls, all of whloh tend to make fun fast atfd furi ous. II II II Next Monday, Tuesday and Wednes day afternoon and evenings "The Cir cus Girl" will be produced at Davis' theater. The Pawtucket Times says of "The Circus Girl:" "It is seldom that such an opportunity Is offered to see a high-class comedy produced by such an excellent company as appeared at Music Hall last evening to a large and appreciative audience."

These entertainments will be free to the publlo and every one Is cordially invited to attend. The legion ground that he spoiled the local color, was the Eugene Debs of the occasion. A whispered council of war was held and then Just as the scab-plck-anlnnles came out of the stage door, the strikers descended upon them with a deafening war-whoop. To say the wool flew Is putting It mildly. The battle raged for a good ten minutes. By that time every male member of the Casino Btaff was Involved In It, and the crowds on the Roof Garden were breaking their necks craning over the buttresses to see what all the row was about. None of the non-union darkeys were severely Injured, al though several of them did receive an additional black eye or two. The strikers were out for blood, but the policeman seized them before they suc ceeded In capturing much claret. The scabs were then taken home under a heavy escort. Is noted for its public spirit.

ANDREW'S YOIXC MEN. Special Services for the Brotherhood Held in the Church of the Good Shcp herd Officers Klccted. A large number attended the spe cial service of the Brotherhood of St Andrew, last night, at the Church of the Good Shepherd, Green Ridge, where the rector, Rev. F. S. Ballentine, made an eloquent address upon the pro ceedlngs of the convention of the bro therhood, recently held at Washington After reading several reports and ex tracts, the reverend gentleman said: "Let us go back and compare the Ideas and work of the brotherhood now, with the Ideas and work with which It began. There are some who know and could tell of that beginning from their personal part In tt, but as It has come to me, It Is that the Gospel story of St. Andrew was so masterfully lm pressed upon the mind and soul of a class of Bible students, that it fired them with an ambition to follow In his very steps, to do St. Andrew's very work, In St. Andrew's very way. St. Andrew had found Christ and had a brother who had not found Him. He went after that brother and brought him to Christ. He did not ask others to go with him, he went alone. Then It was the apostle; now It is only the Individual. He was not seeking many, but one. He wus not watching for any one he might meet, but with all power of an absolutely single purpose, he passed all others and found Simon laild hold of him with love's strong nersonal grasp and brought him to the Messiah. Let It Held Firmly. "This, if I mistake not, Is the root idea of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. Let It hold firmly to the last. It Is he. whom you, dear brethren, men of or dinary occupation and duties, have set before you as a pattern of unofficial privileged, personal, single-hearted and unobtrusive work. "If the seeking of souls, one by one, is an essential part of the life and Idea of this brotherhood, so the singleness, the personal individuality of the seeker seems to have been made Just as lm portant. Your Idea was not to bring upon a single soul the combined power of an organization, not to send the men after one, but to send one man after one. You were not to work by meet ings, by addresses, by printed appeals, or by the power of numbers, but the messenger of love was to be carried with directness of single hearted per sonal sympathy. "The one sought was to feel, not that a society was trying to reach him, but that there wasone warm, earnest, single heart, which was In love trying to get near him and which cared for him. The brotherhood is only to hold you to gether, to cheer and encourage the members. I charge you to be zealously true to this Ideal. Let the brotherhood help and strengthen you individually, you have a mighty mission to win the young men of the land for Christ and His church. You are only beginning to touch It, you are but in the shallow waters of your first efforts. Launch out Into the deep and let down your nets Into the draught." New Officers Chosen. At the conclusion of the service the members adjourned to the parish room, where the annual meeting was held and the officers elected for the new year. The officers chosen were: director, George E. Parsons, re-elected; vice di rector, James Atkinson; secretary, Ben jamin Parsons; treasurer, Frank A. Metcalfe. WILLIAMS' CITY DIRECTORY Taylor Answered. J. J. Taylor, my would-be opponent in the publication of the Scranton direc tory, stated in last Tuesday's edition of your paper that he did not write me the postal card admitting he was in my em ploy while at the same time, unknown to me, he was taking orders for a di rectory of his own. Fortunately, I did not destroy this misleading communica tion of his, and am having a photo-engraving of It mnde, a copy of which will be sent to every professional and busi ness man in this city. J. J. Taylor also stated that his father compiled every directory I have published for the city of Scranton when he well knows his father did not enter my employ until 1890, and I commenced the publication of this directory at the request of the board of trade In 1,887. Any improve ments that were mnde in the Scranton directory while W. H. Taylor was man ager were made at my suggestion and under my supervision, especially the map, street directory and double col umn. J. E. Williams, Publisher Scranton Directory.

W. W. Wln ton and A. H. Wlnton claim to have purchased one-half of this land now In dispute from Anderson's heirs, and W. W. Wlnton subsequently conveyed to the Wlnton Coal company his Inter est In the property. After the record testimony was heard yesterday, County Surveyor A. B. Dun ning, jr., was put on the stand and testified to surveys made of the prop erty. He was cross-examined at length.

In the city of Pittsburg while passing along the streets one stormy day the great "Andrew" noticed an old man slowly making his way along the slip- pery walk scarcely able to keep In an upright position while leaning heavily upon a pair of crutches with the assist ance of a motherly old lady, who every now and then gave him u word of en couragement and a helping hand. The snow was falling and the wind was blowing bleek and cold. The features of the man bespoke the pain and misery he was suffering at every step, while the good and faithful wife plainly showed the care and burden under which she was resting from the poverty and helpless condition of her dependent husband. The doctor stopped and quick ly stepping up to the old couple he made a few rapid passes over the old man's body and limbs, took his crutches from him and threw them in the gutter, commanding him to straighten up and walk on. The old man took a few steps forward and then stopped and carefully examined his legs and arms, looked blankly at his wife and said, Mary what did that man do to mo? She an swered, Oh, nothing, papa. He only made a few foolish passes over you with his hands and mumbled something to himself. I guess he Is some poor, crazy fool. Shall I get your crutches. No, no; I don't need them see, I can walk I can walk. Thank God that man has cured me. Mary, I am well, see how I can walk. And as the crowd gathered around the old couple, asking all man ner of questions of who that man was, and how It all happened, the doctor slipped away, pondering over the vaga ries and miseries of humanity.

Of Eugene Ysaye and his first appear ance at the Philharmonic society the New York Tribune says: "He came nnd conquered as erstwhile Rubensteln did, and Indeed suggested no character Bo much as a Rubinstein of the violin, an artist with a great, sympathetic, sen sitive soul, responsive to every variety of emotion, prompt and generous In Its givlngs out, who makes one forget all about the art of violin playing In the simple enjoyment of the beautiful and Impassioned proclamation which he makes. There Is no thought of the tech nical skill which Is essential to Its utter ances, and, as Rubinstein could drop chough notes, as he himself once ex pressed It, to make up another concert without bringing a loss of loveliness to me consciousness or nis nearers, so -Ysaye can obliterate all memory of an Occasional digital slip, a false Intona tion, a blurred passage, with the lnten Sky of nis playing, the tremendous, overpowering rush of emotion which Saturates every phrase of his music.' Here is a judgment upon Rubensteln With which our readors may or may not agree. It Is pronounced by the scholar ly mnslcal critic of the Buffalo Express: utrteu with a wealth of melody that ul Tnost rivals Schumann, and that Intense sense of rythm peculiar to the Slav, Rubin stein, notwithstnndlg his prollllcness, has written but little of which one can predict a lusting .value. There were two reasons for the waste among this luxurlousness. The power of concentration nnd Intellec tuality were wanting. In proof of the lat ter statement are his prose works, "Muslo nrul Its Musters," and an "Autoblographio Sketch," both published within the Inst four years. They showed him to have been one who lived entirely within and was ab I rbed by his part; one for whom the realm r tone was all in all, and give a view of be world and a philosophy that Is chlld lh, almost pitiable. Rubensteln failed ntlrely to grasp the outward signiilca on of his art, and thus lost the power of Hf-crltlclsm, which would have spared tm the many bitter disappointments as a ramatle composer, or else have led to lnher results. What he lucked was cdu Mlon, which gave Wagner, Berlioz, Solium lann, Mendelssohn, the power to place deli- work upon the higher plane. Had Here, been given to Rubinstein the power t concentration, and consequent sense of rm, possessed by Brahms, the latter half f this century would havo seen a master. bless ed is the hap py man Whom they with love will greet.

He came to this country ten years ro under, a special engagement to laJame GelsUnger, with whom he had ien associated in her European trl Bnphs. He was orchestral director at he Thalia theater, New York, while hat house was under the direction of lelnrlch Conrled, and while there he Tr-ote the score of "1770" especlailly for Ufl-damc GeJstlnger; and that! of I'rlnce Consort," In order to lntro Uce the Vlenise soubrette, Josle Gall Iyer, Each, opera scored a big success then done in German, and that hpy would' be equally successful In Ingllsh, 1 the opinion. of competent Uiigcs, A( present he la engaged In i i -Y9- Copvrkrlit, iRoi. t)V The New York Musical Record Co. writing the score of a new opera for Thomas Q. Seabrooke, to be called the "Culiph of Bagdad," the book of which has been furnished by Harry B. Smith, of "Robin Hood" fame. The excellent quality of music Mr. Englander has written for "The Passing Show," has been recognized by musical critics and by the general pub lic. Unlike the majority of composers Mr. Englander Is exceedingly mild mannered, with a charming disposition and Is only the least bit nervous. He Is 38 years old, of slight (physique and a cunlirmed uacnelor.

The mere announcement that the Schumann Lady quartette, of Chicago, Is to sing at he Young Men's Christian Association hall next Friday evening ought to bo enough to crowd that au ditorium. The quartette Is admitted to be without a rival and their singing Is such that it raises an audience to the very highest pitch of enthusiasm. While their programme Is of the highest order, yet they sing piusic that never fails to please. All the press reports say that their singing of "Hear Dem Bells," with Imitation of the bells, Is a most remark able and artistic piece of work. The quartette Is assisted by a line elocu tionist, Miss Jessie Cl. Patton, who ren ders several selections. The usual prices of the company has been re duced from $1 to GO cents, as this Is their first appearance In this city. All London Is talking about the new Gilbertlan comic opera, "His Excel lency," which was produced last week at the Lyric theater. This time V. S. Gilbert has Dr, Osmond Carr for a collaborator In place of Sir Arthur Sullivan. People think D. Care's music Is. not up to the Sullivan standard, though It Is bright and tuneful, but they one and all agree that Mr. Gilbert has done some of his best work. The Frothingham Theater orchestra for "The Passing Show." to be held on Monday, Dec. 3, will be augmented to the number of twenty musicians. Will iam Gi-llllths, trombonist of Bauer's band and orchestra, has been engaged by the management to furnish the ex tra musicians, and will henceforth be connected with the house in a musical capacity. Miss Florence Beckett, the accom plished flute soloist of the Ludles' or chestra, has had excellent instruction upon the Instrument from childhood. Her father' Is a well known Boston flutist, having for years been .con nected with the orohestra of the Boston Ideal Opera company. Miss Beckett plays with remarkable ease and skill nnd her solos Invariably evoke enthu siastic encores. Miss Lillian Guthrie,- of New York, has been engaged as solo soprano at Elm Park. Methodist church. Miss Guthrie possesses a full, musical voice of great power capable of giving the proper effect in the large auditorium of -the Elm Park church. Manager Laine, of the Frmthtngham, is arranging a short concert tour for the Ladles' White orchestra in tho near future. During the absence of the Lady orchestra the music at the Frothing ham will be In charge of Professor Will tarn Grlffllths, SHARPS AND FLATS. Sir Arthur Sulllvan'anew operottn, "The Contrabandists," will be given for the first time at the Savoy Thcuter, London, next month. Franz Rummel has scored a success in London, where he gave two concerts. In tho first, with orchestra, he played Bee thoven's G major, the Schuman and a Saint Snons concerto; the second wfc a selected programme for piano alone. Montreal has also attained the distinc tion of having Its own Syihphony Orches tra. There are 41 men under Mr. Coutre. At their first coneert they played Bee ZMlZ 0- thoven's first symphony, Weber's "Jubel Overture," Rubensteln's "Bal Costume," and a selection by Dubois. It bus become customary In Europe of luto years to have different prominent conductors appear ut a season's concerts. Tho Society of the Nouveaux-Concerts in Brussels will be given this winter under Huns Rlchter, Ch. Itordcs, Richard Strauss, Franz Servuls and Felix Mattel. Hans Sommer's opera, "St. Folx," had Its initial performance In Munich recently. It was a short comic opera, the text by Hans von Wolzogen, the well-known es sayist and Wagnerian. The press of that city are warm In Its praise, especially ad miring the lyric passages und the orches trat Ion. A tablet has at last been placed In Mayence upon the house In which Peter Cornelius, who died In 1K74, was born. His opera, "The Uarbler of Bagdad," Is one of the German classics, whilst his poems and songs, especially the cyclus, "The Bride's Songs," are amongHhe most chant ing of his lyric literature. He was a nephew of Peter von Cornelius, the great painter. Thoj operetta, ."Prince Ananias," by Fruncis Neilson and Victor Herbert, as performed on Tuesday night by Boston ians In New York, was not an entire suc cess. The critics agree in praising Her bert's music; the only fault found Is with Its excellence. The librettist does not fare so well. The work Is entirely too long, requiring nearly four hours for performance. And the text Is weakened by attempts at witty rhyming. CURIOUS PARAGRAPHS.

Speaking of the new play "John-a-Dreams," which has just been produced with considerable success at the Lon don Hay-market, the London Times says: "Mr. Plnero, following In that respect the example of the late Emile Augler, stripped the courtesan of the false trappings which had been thrown around her, and the task which the au thor of 'John-a-Dreams' has set hlmSelf Is that of rehabilitating her once more, and that with a degree of completeness not hitherto attempted. Whether the object of these attentions Is worth the time and trouble devoted to her the pub lic must judge, but It Is Impossible not to be struck at least with tho freedom with which the femme perdue and her nterests are now discussed on the Eng lish stage. So far, the palm for bold ness may be claimed by Haddnn Cham bers."

Rochester Post-Express. While delivering a lecture In Wash ington the other day Joseph Jefferson was asked by Miss Kate Field whether, In his opinion, a subsidized theater would be desirable In the United States. His answer was that while from the standpoint of an actor he might think such an Institution desirable, and while It would doubtless be of benefit In many ways In developing dramatic art, the conditions of this country were such that It would be practically Impossible to subsidize the drama here.

Mrs. Rorei-'s audience was a large and very fashionable one. Sh dwelt on the need of spices as an artlcl of diet, especially in warm weather, and declared that If six curries were oaten during the summer months the eater would have no need of pills. "The Lord," she said, "has given us three kinds of teeth, and He clearly meant for us to eat three varieties of food. Onions, being strongly antiseptic, are a valuable vegetable. Chopped meats, onions fried In butter, milk of grated cocoanut, green pepper, cloe of gurlic, several other spices, together with a dish of boiled rice and baked banana are the component parts of a ball'currle." This Mrs. Rorer then proceeded to make, and when she had finished she declared the dish was one warranted to bring back an appetite entirely gone. ANECDOTE OF BLAINE. How lie Suuclchcd a New Member Who Was llndly Enraged. From the San Francisco Argonaut. On one occasion a decision which Ttlalne made as speaker of the house greatly enraged a new member, who waited on Pennsylvania avenue after the house adjourned, with some friends, declaring that he would "have It out or fight." "You can't," paid one of his friends; "nothing you will say will get the better of Blaine's good humor and politeness." "We'll see," said the en- paged man, ns ho caught sight of the stately figure of the speaker coming slowly toward him. He stepped for ward quickly and stood across his path, 'Mr. Blaine," he said loudly, "I don't know you; I am no acquaintance of yours, but I take the liberty of telling you, sir, that you are a fool and a Jack ass!" "Indeed," said Blaine, mildly; now, I wonder," regarding him thoughtfully, "what kind of liberty you would have taken If I had been one of your Intimate friends." And, bowing courteously, he passed on, while the companions of the congressman burst Into a shout of laughter. The Irish Compliment. In W. R. Le Fanu's "Seventy Years of Irish Life" is a reference to the visit of George IV. to Ireland In 1821, which was enlivened, as much as a state visit may be, by the following Incident: The king entered Dublin In an open carriage drawn by eight splendid horses and attended by a number of grooms and footmen In magnificent liveries. He was In military uniform, and constantly took off his hat, smiling nnd bowing to the people, who enthusiastically cheered him. At one point a man close to the carriage stretched out his hand to the king and paid: "Shake hands, your majesty!", The king shook hands heartily. The man waved his hand and called out ."Begorra, I'll never wash t,hat hand again!" The Time to Quit. From Judge. Isaacateln (to doorkeeper of poker room) Ish Jakey lsaacsteln In dere?

THE SCRAXTOX TRIBUNE SATURDAY MORXING, DECEMBER I, 1804. 9 First Impressions 0! th? Metropolis Guy Fawk's' Day and the Lord May or's ShdW rkturcsqucly Described. SEEN TROM THrJ TOP OP A BUS Incidents of a First Fortnight's Stay Alono in London-Miss Katscr Finds Lodg mont at Last in a Musically Inclined Household. Special Correspondence of The Tribune London, Nov. 13. Two weeks ago to day we came up to London together, Mr. Evans and Mr. Anwyl and Miss Emilie Drlscoll and myBelf. We reached the city in the evening, and the next morning they all dt-parted for South ampton, leaving me here all lonely and forlorn. I felt bereaved. But I did not dare let my thoughts dwell much upon my forsaken condition, for fear of sym pathizing with my poor self too much. So I assiduously set to work to find the bank, boarding houses, and the Royal Academy, where I made arrangements for my coming examination and en trance there. Of course it was very hard, this finding my way about the city all alone at first, but by industrious ly affiliating with policemen and bus drivers, who are nothing if not careful and courteous, I accomplished all my errands safely enough, and had a great many wonderful and Interesting things to Bee, besides, so that It was a case of pleasure combined with business. I had some difficulty In selecting a boarding place, however, as I wiBhed one not far from the heart of the city in order to save time In going to and fro but It seemed almost Impossible, as the rates were so very high. Happening one day to be talking with Miss Helde, the lady superintendent of the Academy, I mentioned my difficulty, and she straightway gave me. an address to a lovely place, where the neighborhood Is extremely pleasant and from which I ca get to the academy in fifteen or twenty minutes. I have a little gem of a room, on the second floor, or, what they call here, the first floor, and I am very, very comfortable and cosy. There is a cute little fireplace, a cute little bedroom suite, and a cute little piano in my room which I have for prac ticing on, besides all my pictures and home photographs, which I brought along, ami a lovely little working and writing table.. Then I also luxuriate in using as much gas as I like, which in some boarding houses you cannot do as the mistress turns it oft at 10 o'clock at night all over the house! And then there are four meals a day, besides chocolate at bed time, all of which I naturally appreciate, as hard work makes me hungry. Typicnl London Hoarding House. The house Itself Is an old residence Jn a beautiful old neighborhood, whero there are plenty of big trees, old shrub bery and quaint old flower gardens nt the backs of houses. Our premises are surrounded by a high, thick stone wall, and any one on the first floor cannot see out Into the street at all, nor can anyone from the street see in, either This fortification, however, has one vulnerable point, a big wooden door set in It with a door-bell at the postern When I come home from the academy or anywhere else I must stop at this door and pull this bell, which rings in the house like mad, and one of the mams must run way out or the nouse down to the walls and unlock the cato to let me In instead of just going to the house door itself. In rainy weather I do not .envy her, as she gets wet every trip, and sometimes this bell goes a ringing very often all day long for some of us. The floors, In this house, o all the rooms and halls, the first floor and basement are of stone, as are also the stairs in the front hall. Of course, they are all covered with carpets, ex cept the basement domain, but I think I like wood better. It doesn't seem so cold! AH the girls here are students at the Royal Academy of Music. They are all singers, too, some of them having been there four or five years, and these naturally sing very well. Of course, we learn the in struments, too, besides our voice culture, and you should hear us at our prac dicing sometimes. One Is playing her piano with the loud pedal pressed down hard; another shrieks out scorn at tho top of her voice to an imaginary vll Han in a grand opera selection; an other is running scales on her violin and the other vocalizing with all he might and main; while down Btalrs the orchestra, which one of my landladies conducts, and the other accompanies (they are both very accomplished), may lie having a spirited rehearsal for some coming performance. At such a time the meanest revenge I could take on my worst enemy, I think, would be to place him In the front hall of this echoing house and let the groans and sobs of the orchestra, the thumps of the plnno the squeaks of the tantalized and tor tured violin, and the cries of the high sopranos, mingling all In one discordunt whole, confound his hearing. London's White Orchestra. By the way, the orchestra which J JuBt mentioned, is a symphony one composed entirely of ladles, all of whom are perfect mistresses of their instru ments. They give concerts in London and the' provinces, being, indeed, nl most constantly engaged, and have often played .before the Prince and Princess of Wales and family at Marl uorougn nouse uunng the season, They are very fine, indeed, and ar away now, filling an engagement at one of the inland cities, while the motherly housekeeper and the maids take care of us in the absence of the two ladies. Guy Fawkcs Day. Tuesday was Guy Fawkes'! day here In England, and was celebrated mostly by the small bny element. They carried around ridiculously stuffed effigies of poor old Fawkes. the object being, I sup pose, to make his memory as ridiculous as possible. These are called "Guys. Some of them were elaborately gotten up, and pulled around the Btreets like floats, by Borry looking little mules and aonkeys. Then. too. some small bovs and others not so small, went around masquerading in all sorts of outlandish costumes, getting an immense amount of fun and amusement out of their own ridiculous appearance and minstrelsy. Down in the country, I am told, they have great firecracker shooting, with wonderful displays of fireworks at night, Just like our Fourth of July, but in London here the danger of fire is too great. It Is supposed by the youngsters uere, umi uuy iawkes turns in- hi grave regularly every year, at being made such hearty fun of as they make or mm. The 'other night I went with a Cam bridge University girl to hear "Elijah given in Koyai Albert hall. What magnificent chorus they have there, and what an immense organ, too! And how perfectly vast the hall 1b! It must take n tremendous solo voice to fill it. The soloists that night were Ella Kussel, Clara Poole, Edward Lloyd and Santley, Of course I was overjoyed to hoar these last two, as they are certainly in the hey dey 3f their greatness, so I wanted to hear them before thoy grew any older. There being not much opportunity in the work for soprano, I could not enjoy Miss Russel lis much as I wished to, but I loved the contralto. Her voice Is eautiful. However, I shall hear EUa Kussel often again, in the ballad con certs coming now. Ey the way, Ade- lina Pattl comes up to London to sing, soon, and I hope to hear her, too. Academy Musicians. Last Saturday I attended one of the fortnightly concerts at the academy, and enjoyed it very much. The pupils are the only performers at these, and I was much taken with the violin and piano performances, especially, and the string quartette which was played. The voices which sang were not at all re markable, but perhaps I shall hear the more remarkable ones at some other concerts, as only a dozen pupils or so perform at each one. My professors at the academy are very good to me. I have been sent to one of the three best ,'olce producers in the Institution, Nich- olls, and shall have another private master outside for style und finish and such things. There is one good thing, that I am very glad of, and that IS, I do not have to unlearn anything about my method of voice production. Dr. Mockerju and several professors who were there when I took my examlna tlon, were very complimentary to me, or rather to my former teacher, for, of course, I told them that he was a Royal Academician, having been a pupil of Holland and Durlvler there some years ago. I shall be very busy, I suppose, as I have voice lessonB, piano, harmony opera, elocution and deportment to wrestle with, though not all on the same days. Night before last I dined out with a lovely girl and her husband at Hyde Park Mansions. I had letters to them from her mother, a delightful woman, whom I met down at Newport, and who was very kind to me. She sent me let ters to both her married daughters up here, who are perfectly lovely to me; to Madame Gomez, the famous ballad singer, who Is a friend of her's; toAlfred Eyers, the organist of Royal Albert hall, arm to some more people. I must not go out much, however, as I wish to study hard, and students are generally too poor to court) society. The Lord .Mayor's Show. Nov. 15. Last Friday was the day of the lord mayor's show here, It being tne occasion of the retirement of th lust lord mayor and the coming of the present one into office. It is always celebrated with a big procession of floats, soldiers, and all sorts of gor geous uniforms, and carriages contain ing the big London politicians, besides the outgoing and Incoming lord mayors and suites, all dressed up In their funny furry robes and wigs, which medieval gew-gaws still constitute their badge of office. The town was full of country people, who had comn' 111 to witness the "show," and the streets were so crowded and blocked with people and vehicles of all kinds that one could hardly move about. It was a rainy day, of course, and the now lord mayor certainly received a generous christen ing at. the hands of the clerk of the weather. Last week the students of the Royal academy gave on of their chamber con certs at St. James' hall, down In Plca dilly. Weall.thatlstheglrls and women, have to wear white dresses and big crimson sashes, at all public perform ances of the Royal Academy of Music, and, of course, we did on this occasion. It looked lovely to see us all together in such pretty and uniform costumes, I as sure you. Of course, It rained, and rained fearfully, too. It always does when we have to woar those dresses and sashes. The concert was a lovely one; all the performers being students, and soma of them very clever ones. There were three or four things pro duced which were the works of different pupils here, and some of them were really excellent compositions and were very much applauded by the audience present. Other Amusements. Yesteilday afternoon I went to a Schubert concert In Queen's hull, down in Regent street, The concert room here Is a little beauty, though smaller than St. James' hall, the two of them, by the way, being the two concert rooms In London. 1 heard a simply lovely mezzo soprano there, and a nice soprano too, but the tenor wns an ar tint, pure and simple. Then there were string and piano things, during which I just Bhut my eyes and forgot that I was aught but a big pair of ears. To morrow night there Is another fort nightly concert at the Royal Academy of Music, at which my Scotch girl chum here in the house is to have three of her songs sung by one of the crack tenors of the acad emy. She Is a fiery, hot-headed rank Stewart, and her songs are Jacobite ones. I am very anxious to hear them. She Is Scotch from the top of her head to her tiny toes, and knows all the old folk-lore of her country, and all the unwritten talcs about those beautiful dashing, wicked but withal fascinating Stewarts, and these slip will sit and tell by the hour, sometimes, as we sit around the fire In the twilight after dinner. The other evening she danced several Scotch dances for us, the Highland fling, the Claymore, or sword dance, and some reels. They were very pretty. We call her Caledonia, while I go by the name of Miss Columbln, tho English girl being Britannia and the Welsh girl Gwalla. We all consider that we have very pretty names, and very often disagree as to which is the nicest one to have. I am perfectly satisfied with mine, I tell them. There is another American girl nt the academy this year. She Is from "Mllkwaukee," as one of the English girls calls it, and I have not met her yet to see what she Is like. I like going about in London Im mensely. I do love the dear, common place, obliging busses, and always clamber to the top for my ride If the weather is not rainy. I always enjoy a little lnugh, all to myself, as I ascend the cute little narrow stairway which leads to the top of the bus, for It in variably makes me think of that little poem of Hood's, I think, which I had to learn one time at school, for being too talkative, I guess, and which runs: "Will you walk Into my parlor? said the spider to the fly, 'Tis the prettiest little parlor that ever you did spy. Tho way Into my parlor Is up a winding stair; And many a quaint and curious thing you'll see when you get there!" Tho Streets of London. It certainly is the spider's parlor, this top of the bus, and one does see the most wonderful and curious things from such an excellent point of view as it affords. The streets of London In terest me more than a good novel, I must say, and one cannot study them better than from a perch like mine. I must tell you, too, that I have grown some richer In experience lately; having had the extreme pleasure of riding several times In a hansom cab! I never was In one before, not even In New Yprk, where they have a number of them, and I did enjoy it immensely to ride In the queer, funny arrangements they are. I like them very much, but they are expensive, and I wouldn't have been In them, only a lonely girl friend of mine took me riding on a shopping tour with her. Gracious, how I would like to be rich, and live In 'such a large, lovely city as New York or Lon don. It must be wonderful! But I must stop and hammer my piano for a while. I find piano practice very Irksome. I honestly detest it, but I must do It anyway. I remember read ing the little tale that the reason the engagement ring Is on the third finger of the left hand Is because the ancients believed that there was a cord leading from that finger to tho heart; and since I have been working at the piano, I am prepared to corroborate the an cients in their statement and uphold it against all corners; for have I not felt that very cord, and cords from all the fingers as well, a-palnlng and a-throbblng till my very heart com plained at the hard practice? I must tell you about the street sights, but I cannot this time. Sadie E. Kaiser. SANCTUM AND STAGE. There's a Bond of I'nion Between the Two That's Indisputable. Mr. Daly, before he became a manag er, was a dramatic critic. He Is a gen tleman of culture and ability, and has developed several of our very best actors. The public has him to thank too, for several elegant rivals of Shukes- peare's best comedies. The Frohmans were both journalists of standing before they entered the field of theatricals. Both of these gentlemen have been lav ish In their expenditures, and have put upon the stage some of the most charm ing entertainments seen in the United Stats during the past few years. Charles Hoyt, before entering theat ricals, was a writer for the press. Duvld Henderson went from a managing ed itor's desk to the manager's office of the Chicago opera house. SEWS NOTES FROM VALES. Nearly all the milk trade of London is in the hands of Welshmen. Ben Davles, the famous Welsh tenor, says that his wife Is his severest critic. Mrs. Davles wns, at one time, a member of the operatic Btage. The first Welsh grammar ever published was by Rev. Griffith Roberts, a native of South Wules, who became a canon of Milan. He was the author of the "Drych Cristlonogawl," which Is referred to in one of John Parry's tracts. Miss Mary Thomas, of Ynlshlr, Is steadily winning an assured position among English ballad-singers. She has recently been engaged to sing nt Boosey's Ballad Concerts at the Queen's Hall, Lon don, nnd is the only daughter of the well known singer, Gwilym Thomas, and was born some twenty-two years ago at Kan sas, in the United States of America. The curious little twirl at the end of a sentence, which is common to North and South Wulians, when speaking English, is of very ancient ongln. A certain Warner, of Bath, writing In 1798 says: "All the children of Flintshire speak English very well, and were It not for a little curl or elcvutlon of the voice at the conclusion of the sentence (which has u pleasing cf feet), one should perceive no difference In this respect between the North Walluns and the natives of England." Welshwomen In the States are no chick ens. One of them, a Miss Agnes Jones, of Kansas, a young lady of 21 summers, se cured a plot of land In the Cherokee Strip Inst year. Two months ago she went to Kansas for a short time to visit her pa rents, and on her return she found that her plot had been tuken possesion of by one Sam Kartell. High words ensued pistols were 11 red, and Ham Kartell wns carried out of the house feet foremost Miss Jones escaped without a scratch. Samuel Evans, Inspector general of the Ottoman bank at Constantinople, Is an old newspaper man, having served as a reporter on the Caernarvon Herald, and says, that taking them all In all, the pen pie of Turkey are more sober, moral, brotherly and honest than the people c England and Wales. When staying for few days at Bagdad, tho City of tho Ca llphs, and tho stat of the great Haroun al-Raschid, a citizen sent for him, nnd asked his name. Mr. Evans compiled "Where do you come from?" was the next Inquiry. "From Wrexham, in Wales," answered Mr. Evans. "I also came from' Wrexham," was the reply and my name Is John Jones!" Thereup on Sam Evans and John Jones had a good time together.

HE VISION'S MAJESTIC SWEEP From This Notnblo Elevation One Is En abled to Comprehend the Whole City, Including the I'laco Where Bravo Montgomery Fell. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. Quebec, Nov. 9. The pride and glory of Quebec, next to the Citadel, Is Duffer- in Terrace, an unrivalled promenade and public rendezvous. A view from it is unsurpassed for beauty and grandeur. It is situated about half way up the Blope of this historic rock, Bay 200 feet from the river, perpendicular, right un der the frowning walls of the Citadel. It Is fully a quarter of a mile long and from 400 to 500 feet wide, extending to the base of the Citadel, and said to be the longest promenade of that sort In the world. Erected on each corner and front, are five handsome kiosks (observatories), extending out beyond the esplunade, to Which the names of Plessls, Frontenac, Lome and Louise, Dufferln Victoria- distinguished French and English patrons have been given, besides an other stand for the use of bands of music, which at times are those belong ing to the British and French men-of-war visiting Quebec. Underneath the esplanade are some of the old smooth bore cannon resting upon their plat forms or caissons, but In their present condition unavailable and of no practl cal value or use, until rilled. From the terrace front facing the river are thirty- seven port holes, designed for both nine and thirty-two pounder guns and ren dezvous for sharpshooters. The terrace presents a formidable appearance from any point of view, "formed from the solid walls of God's masonry." One writer says; "The fortifications are omnipresent; no matter from what point you look toward this rock, for eight or ten miles away, they are still with their geometry against the sky, Nor does a nearer view disenchant you," A ten minutes' climb, and liiO feet above stands the frowning Citadel, vVhose hoary walls have protected Quebec against every foe and Is the pride of every Quebecer. .Magnificent Terrace View. What do we see? Standing upon this gigantic rock, overhanging city and river, we look down upon the bustling Lower Town and the guard-ships masts of the mighty "Cruiser Make," and man-of-war Tourmaline, belonging to Her Majesty's navy, and the French war vessels Nalade, Neullly and Rlgault de Genoullly, now visiting Quebec, be side the small craft of tho harbor and the merchant vessels of foreign nations loading the timber from the "floating docks" of the French Canadians, which are coming down the liver from above the city. Acres and acres of these arc often seen loaded with lumber ready for shipment to foreign ports. Directly under the terrace front, the quaint, nar row street bearing the name of the founder of Quebec (Champlaln) Is seen, and we follow It to the foot of the Cita del Cliff. Here Is the narrow pass where the heroic American, General Montgomery, fell mortally wounded while galiently leading h s t.en In a rash ami daring attack on the Cttr.del during the Hove., lutionary v.'.i. .An Inscription painted lui;h upon the tolld rock bears !rds tea tini'itiy: "Here Montgomery fell, l).c 3;, 17.V An Historic Reminder. This s the trly mark b-ft of t'..e American attack upon Queb.v. esoitj-t a rl,-rn we see In the wall of a hiiiis" i n tit. Louis street (Upper To"i), to the ec'i'ect that It "has been built upon th t site of the small dwelling into which the body of the American general was carried after his full." The dlscom fltted, invading Americans, after their Inglorious defeat, were driven from Canada the following spring for lack of support. An elevator built upon the outside of the terrace front, extending to Lower Town, having the appearance of a cov ered rope walk, or snow shed, will greatly shorten the descent th?re, land ing you In Little Champlaln street. This street Is a narrow, planked alley with high, peaked roofed houses on either side, and not over ten feet wide. Still more quaint Is "Sotis-le-Cap," which Is reached by taking the turn in to Sault-au-Matelot or Sailor street. This old street creeps along under the city wall and the overhanging rock, which Is thickly bearded with weeds and grass and trickles with moisture; though cool In summer It must be an ice-pit In winter. There are the same high French roofs, with peaked win dows In them, nnd here and there a prop reaching across the way we Im agine frail enough supports. If the sturdy cliff, which protrudes itself at Intervals, should attempt to advance further. You can drive through this street, provided there Is a guarantee that you meet no other vehicle. Site of a Fatal Landslide. Near here, In Champlaln street, we notice a considerable rise In the ground, which was made by the fatal landslide of 1S811, and looking up can see where the great slice was taken off the cliff at that time. Equally as good a view of this slide and ruins we have looking down from the King's Bastions of the Citadel. This huge mass of rock and earth fell some 200 feet without a mo ment's warnng, killing forty-three "habitants" and causing much suffer ing and loss of property. Looking from a Jutting rock near Hope Gate, behind which the defeated Americans took refuge from the fire of their enemies, the view Is extremely unique. One Is remlnde of a throng of gypsies, for there abound gossiping, idle women, Indolent, smoking men, poultry, cats, dogs and vagrant looking children. Here are the sag-roofed burns and stables, weak-backed and dilapi dated work shops of every sort, In a tumble-down posture, leaning up against the cliff for support. Here are covered ways extending over the alley to the second stories of the houses, and from these galleries and dormer win dows are numberless clothes-lines, upon which flutter a variety of bright colored garments of all ages, sexes and condi tions. Almost directly tipder the north ern end of the Terrace, where the cliff stands back further from the liver,- the streets and buildings huddle closer to gether; the tin-roofed houses seemed packed tightly upon the steep slope as if for mutual support. Just below, to the north, not a stone's throw, stands the historical church of Notre Dame de Vlctorle, erected in 1090. A little to the south is Champlaln Market hall, with its moat and wnlled enclosure, and near by was pointed out to us the site of the first building in Quebec, erected In 160S, by General Champlaln, It Included a fort, a resi dence arid stores. Here was the first clearing made, and the next was on the terrace or plateau upon which the hotel Chateau, Frontenac now stands,, and where the writer stood when these memoranda were given him by an at tache of -the hotel. Champlaln Market. Champlaln market Is a prominent place of interest and should be visited by every tourist In early morn, when the buying and selling are at tholr height. Most of the produce-has been brought from parishes up or down the river by the market steamers, which lie three or four abreast along the quay. The French flag floats over It long be fore sunrise. The open space outside of the large stone market building Is planked over, and upon it the "habi tants" sit with their green stuff spread out on, the boards around them. There they gesticulate and vociferate In mak ing Sales, with an energy Indescribable, which an American peddlar might well emulate. The most picturesque approach from Upper to Lower Town Is by the Cham plain steps. This route leads to the Notre Dame des Victories, a plain old structure of stone, built on the site of Champlain's residence in 1090, and to the busiest and most crowded part of the old river wards, also to the long line of steamboat wharves. These old steps commence about one-third of the way down the winding slope of the cliff and are steep and narrow; although partly demolished and replaced by a modern structure, they still Impress the visitor as well deserving their name, for the old, gray, worn out stone and plank stairs of ancient days are distinctly seen beneath the Iron stairway which covers them, a curiosity no visitor should fall to see. Near the foot of the steps is a grating over the place where the remains of Champlaln were recent ly found In the vault of an ancient chapel, burled there In 1635. These old stairs are usually crowded with pedestrians of iill nations, color and size, from the stalwart Indian of the Huron tribe, wrapped to the throat in embroidered moose hide, the origi nal hnbitant. In his ancient dross, the dusky roamers of the citadel, the olH cers and sailors of the men-of-war In port, dressed In glittering uniforms, even tho Jesuit Fathers in their eccle siastical robes, the students of the semi naries, the pious and devoted nuns in their characteristic dress, John China men, of whom only two are found with in these memorable walls, and last, but not least, the curious and Inquisitive Yankee, looking In vain for the Stars and Stripes, America's emblem of lib erty, which we failed to see during the days of our visit here. Streets in Lower Town. All streets of Lower Town are nar row and plank-paved. St. Peter's street, running north, between tho cliffs and the liver, Is the seat of the chief trade of the city. It contains numerous bnnks, public offices and wholesale warehouses. These build ings are plain and massive, built of gray stone.

Last night, as my dear babe lay dead In agony 1 knelt and said: "O, Ood! what have 1 done, Or In what wise offended Thee, That Thou Bhould'st take away from mo My little son? "Upon tho thousand useless lives Upon the guilt that vaunting thrives, Thy wrath were better spent! Wliy should'st Thou take my little sot? Why should'st Thou vent Thy wrath upon This Innocent V" Last night, as my dear babe lay 'dead. Before mine eyes the vision spread Of things that might have been; Licentious riot, cruel strife, Forgotten prayers, a wasted life Dark red with Bin! Then, with soft music In tho air, I saw another vision there: A Shepherd, In whose keep A little lumb-my llttlo child Of worldly wisdom undeflled, Lay fust asleep!

1U TIIE SCRAXTOX TUTBUXE SATURDAY MOTlXIXGy DECEMBER 1,-1894. ii (These short serial stories are copyrighted by Bacheller, Johnson Bach ellcr.and are printed InTheTribune by special arrangement, simultaneous with their appearance In the leading daily Journals of the large cities). Ill It was late November the year after Dr. Ashurst's death, and his two daugh ters and their mother were In a good deal of trouble.' He had been a man of infinite generosities; he hud gathered some good books and a very few good pictures. He had made his family hap pier than any other family in all that region ever dreamed of being. He wag still a good bit this side of age when an attack of pneumonia brought him quickly to his end. People who had allowed themselves to tuke his talents and gifts for granted were surprised into doing him tardy honor, by finding what recognition was given him on every hand. Those who knew him best praised him most, and many a city man, who had, perhaps, only seen him once at Bome medical club meeting, to which on rare occasions Dr.. Best or his little group of intimate friends be guiled the busy and self-sacrificing country .doctor many a city man owed to him the best of inspiration or en lightenment from some chance word, or some new way of looking at old things. "Ashurst hus more genius for his profession than any of us," old Dr. Best used to say. It hud been a long, sad year since the good man died Indeed "they needed a doctor up at Alton," as he had said at the beginning of his brave career. There was many a poor soul that felt unbefrlended now, and uneompanlonod, with no one to look to for help, spirit ual or mwteriul. And as for Dr. Ash urst's own household, the sorrow of poverty, was added to sorrow itself. The mother and her two children were left jeally puor, John Ashurst always HAD REEJf LOOKING BOOKS." BOATS hoped to leave his family a good sum of money, to buy a comfortable life in surance before he should be taken away, but the necessities of the mo ment always hid the fear of the future. He had lost what money he had by the failure of a bank, and he had never been provident. It was the rainy day of the moment and not of the future with which he concerned himself. Now that the small bills that could be col lected were all paid, many accounts having never been kept at all and still more forgiven it was but a poor de pendence, and the girls were wondering what they could possibly do. One had inherited her father's gift of teaching, and had gathered a little school, but it was more a thing of love than of busi ness, and of late she had taken the dis trict school near at hand, and her poor pay was the mainstay that was left. They had always felt so rich all their lives that they did not know how to feel poor, exactly. In the late years when Dr. Ashurst had been sent for fur and wide, and now and then a large fee came In his way, they had begun to feel like people of fortune. And only the last Thanksgiving day, the fort night before his three days' ilness be gan, what joy they had in making hap piness for many poor households! The old chaise had gone its rounds with a high-heaped mound of benefactions under the buffalo robe;' and this old woman must have this thing to make her happy, and the other something else, for Thanksgiving was still kept in all its glory of nelghborllness and good cheer in Alton, and Christmas ltnelf seemed to be the happier for young people, because their elders and betters made the most of the earlier festival. The doctor's study, where a light was ept to burn so late on winter nights, wag a plain room full of books, with a great desk and some three-cornered chairs which had been old Dr. Ashurst's before they belonged to our friend, whom the elder people still call the young doctor. There was a curious dry odor of drugs and Russia leather bind ings. There was a huge wasp's nest on one bookcase, and a bust of Dante on the other, and a beautiful old engrav ing of Sydenham hanging on the wall. One could not help finding it a charm ing, scholarly sort of a place; there was still a delightful air of sympathy and friendliness, as of a place where people were sure to come to tell their troubles, and sure to go away comforted. It was the day before Thanksgiving, and one of the doctor's daughters, who had oftenest been 'his companion, was sitting there alone. She had been look ing at the books and making a list of some of them, about which one of her fathers friends had written her. He had made a good offer, out of friendli ness, but both Dr. Ashursts had known what good books were, and had left be hind them some volumes of very great value. Of course they must Bell them, and It was a good chance, but Nelly Ashurst loved these particular books, and treasured them all the more, be cause her father and grandfather had treasured them too. She took down the old copy of the Rellglo Medici, and held it for a moment 'then she kissed It and put it up again, .and went over ito the old desk to lay her head on her folded arms and cry. The night before a proposal had come from her mother's Bister in one of the'seaboard towns, that they two should come to her to spend the Winter, leaving the eldest sister, Who was the teaoher, to board some where and go on with her School. In the summer they could perhaps let their house, for' Alton was near bne of the "BITE DAD REEJf LOOKING AT ""S Tart?, hill towns wihere many people came to pass the summer. "At any rate," the aunt had said kindly, "when you are fairly here, we can talk over plans and do what seems best." She was not a rich woman, and Nelly Ashurst was grateful for such thoughtfulness, but her mother, who had had many illnesses, was only well among these high, dry hills, and she sobbed to herself over the old desk: "This is an end of our home, an end of our home!" There seemed to be nowhere else to look, for the winter at least. Perhaps when summer came they could indeed come back, and find some people who would come to board in the pleasant old house. But their independence and old free ways were assailed; they must do what they could now, and never any more what they wished. Nelly Ashurst mourned with the despair of youth. She could almost feel her father's hand on her shoulder in kindly reproach, but her trouble was all the more bitter, poor girl, because it seemed in some vague way to be a rebuke to him whom she loved and made her hero. She had never felt the weight of pain and care as she felt it now. She thought of her mother's hopeless face. Nelly, where are you?" said her mother, suddenly, just outside the door, and Nelly dried her eyes in a hurry, and crossed the room to stand before the bookcase In the shadow. "Nelly, dear," said Mrs. Ashurst, coming in. "Here are some letters, and the poor old Dent sisters are coming up the yard to see us think of it, this cold day! I wish we had something I re ally don't know how to be poor at Thanksgiving time," and her voice fal tered. "They shall have a pie, at any rate, and they shall come and sit in here In the dear study they will like that best." "Mother, mother, quick!" said Nelly. "Don't mind them, let them wait a minute. Oh, see here!" and she held a large letter sheet before her mother's eyes. She had turned quite gray and pale. "I thought It was only some cir cular, or something like that it was directed to father. Somebody who lived in Cuba who died last month, has left father and his heirs she could not hold her voice steady "has left father in kind remembrance of most helpful services in time of need $30,000, to be paid at once accord ing to directions. Oh mother, mother!" "Let me see it, dear," said the frail little woman, shaking with excitement and coming back across the room. t'Oh, if your dear father were only here! And how often I have thought that so many people were ungrateful, and he always said that the poor had the best paymaster, or that he only- asked for happiness enough toi get his work done, and was glad of the liberty to use what skill he hadand now this comes, like a gift of his provision, for his girls and me! Why, Nelly, dear, don't cry so!" "TlUere are those two old Dents knocking and knocking could you let them In, mother?"said Nelly, laughing and crying at once. "Oh, what a Thanksgiving we'll have! I wish Sister Lizzie would come. What will she say? Fifty thousand dollars! Why, father said once that he wished he had just that for his old uge and for us, and no more; It would be all" Her mother, a little dazed, had gone to bid the poor old guests a glad wel come. Old Sarah, the dependence of the doctor's household, who Boemed entirely one of themselves, was away that afternoon, and part of the sorrow and uncertainty that was hardest to bear had been in the thouujrht of turn ing her out of her home, If they them Helves must go. Now -the dear old home was going on, and the UMle com forts and helps for many a poor person who was sick and old were to go on, too. The mystery of the legacy was never made clear. Nelly vaguely remem bered her father's saying something about a sick, old man, a merchant in Cuba, to whom he lent his thick plaid MOTHER 1; MOTHER 1 QUICK I" NELLY. SAID in the oars one cold day, and to whom he gave advice; and that was all. The good doctor was always doing such things, but the fuct remained that one heart, fhat seemed at the moment to forget his kindness, had really remem bered, and was grateful for years of health and activity, which he had ceased to expect. Out of his wealth he had made return, not only for himself, but for many another beside. And on Thanksgiving Day, the doc tor's children and his wife took double joy In doing everything and more that they had always loved to do In the old days. They tried to give all the old patients who were sick or sorry, some thing to remind them of their friend, but indeed a life that shines ylth lov and self-forgetfulness Is a true star of light, and cannot be forgotten, no mat ter In what part of our' heaven it may be placed. TIIE PIONEER COOK. To Juliet Corson, of New York, Belongs This High Honor. To Miss Juliet Corson, of New York City,- belongs, says the Evening Post, the honor of having established th first cooking-school In the United States, and of originating the Idea of instructing women in domestic affairs In general. It was In 1874 that Miss Cor son began her work,, and In 1875 the Idea was taken up In the west, where a Miss Allen organized a school of household science in the Industrial University at Champaign, III. In 1,877 similar work was begun In the Kansas State Agricul tural college. Other beginnings In the ust and west having the same alms in lew were the establishment (if a erlurse of teaching In scientific cooking in La- soll seminary in 1S77, under the tuition f AIlss I'arloa; the opening of a cook ing-school in Boston in 187J, aria of ono n Chicago in 1881. The Chicago school soon became very popular, and its Instructor, Mrs. Emma t-wing, one of the most able and in teresting teachers of cooking in the country, was invited In 18S2 to establish summer cooking-school at Chautau qua. Later Mrs. Kwing established a School of Domestic Economy" in Iowa Agricultural college. GENU'S AND DOCTORS. ugene licld Ipholds the Medicine Man and Rcnlly Makes Out a Strung Case. From the Chicago Record. Genius In every age has cheerfully paid the tribute of its reverence and its gratitude to doctors, and we cannot wonder at it when we come to consider that the dealings of the doctor with hu manity are of the most intimate char acter and cover the entire period from oirth to death. For centuries the doc tor ha3 been riddled with, pleasantries and sarcasms; if. he had not been good and great he would not have been made a target for brilliant savageries; if he hart not been good and great, he would have been swept away long ago by the flood of sharp, but not always sincere. ntlclsm. Priests and physicians have from time immemorial come In for a large share of what we might call sport ive hostility; the world has laughed over these jocularities, yet at the first appearance of spiritual or physical dis quietude the world has sent posthaste for the priest or doctor. This curious perversity is thoroughly understood by the doctors divinitatis and the doctors medlcinae themselves, and It was none other than Dr. Francis Rabelais who embalmed and illustrated it in the im mortal couplet: The devil was Blck, the devil a monk would be; The devil got well the devil a monk was he." We have always thought that In this couplet were most cleverly Illustrated the three essentials to the perfect epi gram as described by Martial: 'Three things must epigrams, like bees, have all; A sting, some honey, and a body small." Good Nattircd Teasing. It Is related that Montaigne used to require of his friends that if ever he fell sick they should not send for a doctor until he got better. It was probably about the time of Moliere that the story about throwing-nwuy-the-medielne-nnd getting-well originated, for when the Grand Louis asked Moliere what he did for his doctor,-the dramatist answered: "Sire, when I m ill I send for him. He comes; we have a chat and enjoy ourselves.-. He prescribes; I don't take it and l am cured." It was probably not until after the evolution of the country editor that the world was apprised. In the very best of faith, that occasionally some neonle 'died without medical assistance." And doubtless there are few of us who have not heard of the man who having' ob tained a prescription for insomnia, ad ministered it to his teething baby and enjoyed an unbroken night's rest. These and similar sarcasms upon the medical profession we enjoy, not because of tlreir truth, for we know well enough that they have very little truth in them, but because, perhaps, there is a teaslug quality in them, and as Victor Hugo has said, teasing Is the malice of good men. It has been our fortune our good for tune to have an acquaintance with many doctors and we agree with the opinion expressed by the leviathan of English letters when he declared: "I believe every man has found In physl- eluns great liberality and dignity of sen tlment, very prompt effusion of bene tioenee and willingness to exert a lu crative art where there Is no hope of the lucre." what we particularly ad mire the doctor for is what he often achieves outside of his professjon; the avocations of the physician are notably productive of noble results. Many of the most successful journalists In this country have been doctors, and so have been, or are, many of our most charm ing writers upon general and special subjects. In Chicago at the present time there is a practising physician who has made pottery n study and practice, and he has done more, prob ably, than any other man tuwurd per fectlng the glalze of nutlve pottery. Dr, Oliver Wendell Holmes hus done more than simply to udorn and dignify his profession; he has adorned and ttlgni (led American literature. The first mar tyr to the cause of our national liberty was a doctor; the fall of Warren fanned to a blaze the fire of American patriot ism. A Dr. Osborn of Massachusetts wrote years ago a whaling song that bids fair to outlive the giant mammal and its adventuresome pursuit which that song celebrated. How largely is not science indebted to Morton, DeKuy and Barton, and who that has read his poems and his tales has not acknow ledged the literary genius of Wier Mitchell? Akenslde was a doctor, so was Cowley, so was Goldsmith; before the days when these literary physicians flourished Sir Walter was proud, of his fame as the compounder of a cordial, and Sir Kenelm Digby was known afar for his recipe for a sympathetic powder which wrought wonders. We remem ber to have read somewhere that Murat wan a doctor, but we have never been able to confirm this story of his earlier life. Arbuthnot was certainly one of the greatest In his profession and his literary abilities and his wit were ex ceptionally charming. Alexander Pope acknowledged the debt he-owed to this physician in ministering to his Buffer ings: "Friend of my life, which did you not prolong The world had wanted many 'an Idle 'song." The Doctor in Literature, Again the literary claims of the ipro fesslon are to bo recognized In the poems of James Rodman Drake, and in the ever popular novels of Charles Le ver. It was a doctor, Lestocq, who aid ed Catherine materially In her struggle for the throne;' another doctor, Ham mond, was master to the great Racine; Peter the Great cultivatd an intimacy with Boerhaave; Hans Sloan provided the neucles of the British Museum; Madden's "Infirmities of Genius" and McNlbh's "Philosophy of Drunkenness" are two books that should be in every library. Two other famous books are Dr.. Mlddleton's 'Life of( Cicero',', and Dr. Thomas Browne's "Rellglo' Medici" Quoth the learned Park: "I hold physi cians to be the most enlightened pro fessional persons In the whole circle of human arts and sciences." But there.! we did not Intend to Bay so much upon this subject.- The doctor re quires no' defense, and If he did he could defend himself. W have fceen led Into this idle, desultory chat about him by our sincere affection for him, for we cer tainly share with all other good folk their admiration and love for this bright, generous, patient, self-Bacrl-riclnt friend of humanity.

Incidents of the Czarina's Sojourn at an English Wutcriug I'lucc-Stands as Godmother for Twins Results of Incessant Iiulns-Political Talk. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. London, Nov. 18. The future wife of the czar, Princess Allx. was staying for some time quite shortly at Harrogate, small watering place on our coast, and, of course, she was much watched. She went under an assumed name to avoid publicity, but the truth soon leaked out and the poor girl was -fol lowed about and stared at by rude nonentities in the most disgusting man ner. She appeared a most simple and natural young lady and stopped at a quiet house. A funny thing about her visit -was that all she stipulated was that there should be no children In the house, and, strange to relate, on the very day that the princess entered her apartments the landlady presented her delighted hubby with twins! The poor man was In a dreadful way and felt In duty bound to acquaint the lady with the news. Instead of flying off the princess stayed on and personally stood as godmother to the children, who were named Nicholas and Allx. This Is a rare stroke of good luck for the lund lord and his prolific lady, as the place has already been extensively patron Used, i The final trial of the murderer Read has- been the sensation of the week Diligent "London letter" readers (and who is not?) will remember that Read shot a young girl after getting her into trouble and1 left her body lying face downward in a pool of water and then decamped. It was shown that, though a married man with n family, he pus sessed several lady loves In different parts of the land. Read has maintained a composed demeanour throughout the trial and Is a smart looking young fel low. But his smartness Is of no avail, as ho is to hang by the neck until he Is dead. An amount of disgusting and cruel evidence was elicited during the case, and a strange feature of the trial was the evident affection for the pris oner by family and dupes alike. A veritable coward, too, who not only murdered the poor foolish girl, but dis graced his family, robbed his employers and was the means of separating a hus band and wife. The Judge summed up dead against the prisoner and the jury took but little time to come to their unanimous) verdict of guilty. The pris oner protested his Innocence, but would not say where he was at the time of the murder and he left tho court a doomed man. In our last letter we alluded to the translation of Horace by Grand Old Man Gladstone; this week it is the turn of the leader of the opposition. Mr, Balfour lias written and published a truly clever and profound book "A De fence of Philosophic Doubt." We Kng- landers are, I think, justly proud of the honorable rivalry that exists between the two old parliamentary champions in the Held of letters. H Is seldom that politicians shine in tho literary world, but these two great statesmen are equally successful In tho scientific and literary studies. Mr. Balfour's book has made a stir not one whit less than the work of Gladstone did last week. England has been visited by heavy and Incessant rains and the result is that many purts of our little island are under water. The city of Bath Is com pletely flooded (the name Is unfortun ate!) and the only means of locomotion Is by boats. The greatest misery pre vails there and the position of the poor er portion of the Inhabitants is serious, la Surrey many cattle and sheep have been drowned and the valleys are deep with water and in many places the rail way traffic is stopped. Around the coast the storms have done very con siderable damage and In many places wiveks and daring rescues have been numerous. The new promenade pier at Dover has been partially destroyed and the Calais-Dover boats have been much delayed. The Thames hus overflowed its banks and whule fields and villages are flooded, even In certain parts o London houses have two feet of water in their basements, and unless the rains soon cease the da magi! and distress will be terrible. One is accustomed to reading strange and sickly accidents and deaths from electricity in the American papers but It is very seldom that fatal accidents occur from the same cause in this coun try. But a strange scene was witnessed In Cannon street In the heart of the city one day recently. A horse drawing a carriage fell down suddenly and the coaohman and friend Jumped down to unharness the animal when they ex petienced a series of severe shocks and were obliged to escape to the pavement Several bystanders endeavored to help, but were all thrown to the ground and two were so seriously injured as to necessitate their removal to a hospital Within a few minutes of tho horse' death several explosions occurred and one of the box covers of the electric light mains was hurled In tho air. Engl neers-soon arrived and found that the causa of the mischief was that a leak ago In a gas pipe had come In contact with nn electric spark. Moral Wea rubbers! The "Masqueraders" has returned to London very much Improved and is In Its present Btate one of the finest play we have seen for many a long day. It Is one of Henry Arthur Jones' and In Its orlglnul form it lacked interest ow ing to the small heroine's part and was but a duel between between the hero and villain. Hut now we have a breathing, Intense and Interesting wo man and the part Is a great one and Is undertaken by a new actress, who Is destined to make no Inconsiderable mark In her profession. The part of Dulcle Lnrondle, tho flirt, the coquette and once light-hearted and then ashamed woman, Is admirably Illlcd by Miss Evelyn Millard. Mr. George Alex ander Is finer -than ever and Herbert Waring is a fine contrast. We are promised another of Jones' plays and we look forward to It, as the writer of "The Middleman" has never disap pointed us yet. Horse racing Is nenring Its exit for the soason' ahd M.- Cannon conies oiit'a little on top of T; Loates as far as win ning mounts-go. During the recent racing at the Liverpool meeting a hur dle race was declared void, owing to a most singular mistake. In order to facilitate the quick working of the programme, instructions were given to the servants of the cotirso to take away th hurdles' fts the 'gee-gees jumped them. The clowns removed the hurdles right enough, but commenced the wrong end; the consequence belnc that the uinpers had nothing to Jump toward the end of the race. The owner, of Roland Graeme la distinctly unfortun ate, ns-he hail backed his. horse to win k good round sum,!; V -U i Our politicians are still making vigor ous speeches alt-over the country. They are all very much the same; the Liberals say that Ireland shall have home rule and the lords must go. The Conserva tives say home rule shall not come about and tho lords won't go, and the Irishmen go for both parties and then go for each other. And there you are, don't you know. The result of the elec tions in America seem to have found great favor In this country, and Ameri can business Is already looking up. Yankee mines are claiming much more attention, too, owing to ominous reports from the Australian gold fields, where the gold is suld to be playing out. The Swazl warriors are happy now. The queen has given them an audience. The chiefs were delighted at their re ception and at the cordiality of the queen mother," and they were tremen dously Impressed by the brilliant uni forms and arms of the soldiers. They were Introduced by the marquis of Rlpon and duly delivered the loyal mes sage they were the bearers of. After gazing open-mouthed at the royal apart ments, they returned to London In a mystified state. It is gratifying to the South African visitors to have seen the queen and their wondrous narratives must make a profound Impression upon the gentle Swazl when they return. Richard Willis. AS TO TRILBY. It Is a Most Churininz Hook, l ull of Beauty and Grace, but It Is Not True, so at Least Thinks .Mr. Dunn, From the New York Sun. Thoso who have read "Trilby" will re gard us an impertinence any statement of reasons for the great success of the book; to those who have not, let us say brielly that while the story Is drawn out of the same elements of youth and love which in ono shape or another are tho theme of every novelist, but somehow never grow old or tedious, Mr. I)u Maurior has writ ten his tale with such originality, uneon- ventlonality, and eloquence, such rollick ing humor and tender pathos, and de lightful play of every little fancy, all run ning so briskly in exquisite English and with such vivid dramatic picturing, that It is only comparable, In tho mass of trush poured out under -the name of novel wri ting, to tho freshnes and beauty of a spring morning at the end of a dragging winter. Many of those who have read it think that the genius of Thackcry has visibly descended. It is, however, a thor oughly unique story, and once begun it is not put down until it is llnished, by the critic, the schoolgirl, or the man of the world. The discussion about "Trilby" chlely centers about tho book's morality. For tho scene of the story Is laid In the bad fairy lurid known poetically as liohemlu; ind Tribly, tho heroine, is an artist s mod el who earns her living by posing, nude or draped, either in portions or In "the alto gether, and who has, In fact, mostly by reason of her parents' faults and her un fortunate early surroundings, lost the one virtue "which gives its name to all the rest." When the novel was printed ser ially In Harper's Magazine, certuin pas sages were thought by the editor to be a little too strong and were eliminated; but these passages remain undisturbed In the book form of the story. They nre prin cipally those in which Trilby tells frankly of certain incidents In her life, and the author defends the necessities of the ar tist's profession ns regards the use of liv ing models. With those who think these pussages Immoral vc cannot agree, Mr. Du llaiirlcr has treated with candor some facts belonging to the realm of things which are usually understood instead of being talked about, but he has done this with singular manliness and dellcuy, and with entire absence of mawkish or other Improper sentiment. The Impression of Trilby's character left on tho reader Is en tirely that of a noble, generous woman whose life Is not a sin but a tragedy. Not an Immortal Hook. And yet, having given the book and Its author warm and just praise, the multi tude of people upon whone hearts Slis Trilby's divine feet are dancing so merrily, must forglvo the belief In us that the story has little share in the powerful rhyme which outlives marble and the monuments of princes. It Is a strong and bewitching tale, but It Is not great. "Trilby" i a moving piece of sentimentality which, us such things nre apt to be, Is wholly un ion!. It presents a picture of life which Is striking, but false in fact and deslni. It is not great because it is not true. For the sumo reason, unless It Is read wisely, It may prove to ho Immoral; and thoso who are carried away by its fun and ten derness may see its substantial unverlty, if they like, by comparing It with u real masterpieeo such as one of H.ilzac's moid able stories. We are not thinking here of the Improbable share that hypnotism pluys In the story. This is, of course, a more fantasy, though a weird and power ful one. Hut It seems worth while to point out plainly that grlseltes of the Lat in quarter, in Paris or elsewhere, are not Triiliys any more than they are George Ellots or Clnra Hartons, unci that Mr. Du Manner's readable fiction will do harm if It induces any young man to believe that the bright grisette of his acquaintance Is a noble, great-souled creature Uko Mr. Dii Maurlei's heroine. Ilohcmla Not l it to l ive in. Wo are not terribly scared about the matter. If tho reader will keep his eyes open, he will see clearly enough that he Is enjoying n brilliant poetic fallacy, which the author himself does not believe. Why, after all the sermons about "nothing ro chaste ns nudity," was Lllilo Billet! shock ed horribly when lie saw Trilby naked on the posinif pedestal? Why, following this scene, did the great artist, M. Carrel, take Trilby awny Instanter, and try to comfort her, remembering "that he had daughters of his own at home?" And why did Little HUlee's artist companions, former believ ers In nudity, tell Trilby that posing "fo tho altogether" wasn't Just the thing? Wc do not quarrel with the peots, either cf nrose or verse, over tneir rigni to ireai Hohemia with generous license und faii.-i-ful exaggeration. We all of us like to read what they havo written, unci their words of winsome unreasonableness stir recollections sometimes that haunt us like strains of tho plaintive song, which Mr. Du Maurler has made the musical motif of his story. lint in real life tho poets and writers, those of them who amount to any thing, regard liohemia with merely pro fessional affection, and they get nway from thero ns soon as they can. When John Hoylo O'Reilly wrote that he had rather live In Hohemia than in any otnor lnnd. he dldnot mean nt all what he said, although he made a delightful poem about It. He knewvery well, as du Manner knows, that it Is an Interesting place to visit, but there are no more pitiable spec cles In the world than the men who stay there and grow old there; and that in truth. It should be sung about ns the land which was found once and happily lost, us Carcassonne Is tho country which we are nlwavs looking for and never find. Therefore, we advise everybody to read Mr. Du Miuirier's story, and to remember that it is all sentiment, und that It Is not so.' Charming, Impossible Trilby! Woman Suffrage Vindicated. Kate Field.
