Milwaukee, Oct. 23. - The Chapman fire,
Thursday night, was the startling event of
the week. In aggregate of km it was one of
the heaviest fires Milwaukee has ever had; j
mi] i: scorched a spot on which the city is j
Highly sensative. Chapman carried so com
plete a stock and his Btors was bo elegant in
ill its appointments that local pride was en
listed to an extent that cannot but be grati
fying to the managing owner of tbegreat
emporium. It was a dry troods palace that
put Milwaukee in favorable comparison with
Jhicago In that department of trade, and
Chapman, as the prince of the busy realm,
put BO much heart into his work and showed
so much public spirit that not to admire him
And his vast sales rooms were treason to
Milwaukee. Before Mr. Chapman took
hold with vigor, much retail dry goods
buying was done in Chicago by Milwaukee
ladies; but he displayed each elegant goods
; uid met the demands of the fastidious so
closely that the trip to Chicago became fruit
less. When it became known that Chap
man's store was burning thousands flocked
to the scene and viewed the work of destruc
tion with heavy hearts; and in the morning
when the late sleepers, many of them em
ployes in the store, came down town and ob
served the ruin, Borrow multiplied rapidly.
To the employes, about 300 in number, the
tire was a veritable calamity, which strikes
them :ii the outset of the most trying season
of tin. year. Mr. Chapman's kindness has
endeared him to his employes to such an ex- I
tent that the Bobbins; girls who gazed on the
ruins on the morning after the fire, sup
pressed thoughts of self aud sympathized |
deeply with the stricken merchant. The loss
of Chapman, the Stark Brothers, and other
occupants of the building, aggregates $721,
000, and the Insurance $650,200. Before
the ruins were cold Friday morning laborers
were engaged and the clearing of the debris
commenced. Mr. Chapman expects to have
a new store finished by May 1, next. It will
probably be a story higher than the old build
ing- " " %
NOTABLE BUSINESS CHANGE.
The firm of Planklutoii it Armour, which
was composed of John Plan kin ton j Philip D.
Armour and Patrick Cudahy, has been • 1 i -— -
solved, Mr. Armour retiring. The name of
the new firm will be John Plankintoa &Co.,
the "Co." being Mr. Cudahy The names
of Plankinton and Armour are as familiar
an household words in the provision markets
of the world, and their b v ranee cannot bo
effected by nit-re legal formality. They have
been in business together since ante-bellum
days and have built up ollosal fortune* from
a start of a few hundred dollars. Their tirst
"big haul" was made whsn the war closed.
Pork which had been Belling at $40 per bar
rel declined into the teens at the announce
ment of psace. Armour foresaw the great
tumble and after a conference with Plan
kinton went to New York and sold the great
staple "short," right and left When the
price reached slß they filled their contracts
and bad a cool million to divide. The im
mortal bard of Avon Bays: "There Is a tide
in the affairs of men, which, taken at its
Hood, leads on to fortune." Although the
decline in the briney staple was strictly
speaking a neap tide, it led on to fortune,
all the samelhad they not caught it "all the
voyage of their lives" might have been
"bound in shadows and in misery.* 1 These
meteoric streaks of what is commonly called
luck almost always invest the
fortunate speculators with the attributes of
t,,r ,i I ; mil Khrewdness. i/lves them a lift
above the common herd; and ever after, if
ordinary tact is displayed, wealth rolls Into
bis coffers without cessation] The patient
plodder on the "level of time" is generally
a doubter of the speculator's possession of
the attributes mentioned, and a "lucky
strike" is regarded as the genesis of all fi
nancial greatness. Tuls la true to a large

on ten.-, subject by an aspiring but not very
successful young man, answered that llmin
cir.l growth was generally sheer luck. He said
that when he stated, his business grew so
rapidly that hi; soon found himself endeavor
ing to keep pace with demands that were far
beyond lii* expectations. He was forced to
do business — was forced to grow wealthy.

times, their names would not be so familiar

way up from small beginnings to leading
places in the provision trade. A sketch of
this remarkable family will be one of the
topics of a future letter.
WHAT KEUSHAW ''DROPPED.'.'
It will bo remembered that several months
ago C. J. Kersltaw, a prominent speculator
of this city failed on the Chicago board o:
trade- that is, he closed out his deals In order
to square himself with the members of the
board, which is one way of falling. It was
hinted Ht the time that although the
"doomed" (peculator was even with the
members of the biard of trade, he was bur
ied under mortgages to a heavy capitalist.
The extent of tbe failure was revealed the
other d^y, by the records at the office of the
register of deeds, where the transfer by K«r
shaw to Alex Mitchell was recorded of seven
lot.* in ■-'• len it Lockwood's addition, run
nine from Farwell avenue to Prospect street,
two lots in Risers' addition running from
Farwollto Prospect street (Kershaw's home
stead), two lots on the corner of Wisconsin
and Jackson streets, some property on Hat
ton's canal, In the Menomouee valley, and a
tract of land in tbe Eleventh ward. The
property transferred to Mitchell is valued at
15,000.
I.IKE DAXQCO'B GHOST.
The National ►Idlers 1 Bomein the Menom
ouee valley,an imposing structure situated in
beautiful grounds and apparently surrounded
with every convenience for the disabled vet
erans who are there endeavoring to find rest
from world care, seems at times to be a
veritable castle of discontent. Out of rumb
lin.cs of complaint come occasional sharp
flashes of anger uuda discharge ofimpec*
tioiis against Gen. Sharpe, the cominaudantj
ami bis subordinates; and the long-faced
veteran in blue with a written roil of charges

FREE KINDER GARTENS.
The- philanthropic women of Milwaukee
are uever idle. Last week*! letter chronicled
the establishment of an old ladies' home by
ladies of the various Protestant churches;
this week the good women inaugurated a
movement looking to the establishment of
free kindergarten?. The proposed organiza
tion is to be called the "Milwaukee Kinder
garten association." At a meeting held In
Plymouth church, Wednesday afternoon, tbe
following officers were selected: President, I
Mrs. G. C. Swallow; vice presidents, Mrs. J
Alex. Mitchell, Mrs. W. P. Lyude and eight '
oth s; secretary, Mrs. C. A. Mayuard; treas- j
urer, Miss Lizzie. Plankiutyu. Referring to
the Old Ladies' home, it may be well to stute
that it will be styled "The Milwaukee Protes- i
taut Home for the aged." Roman Catholic!
Interest in the new home is not uecessury,as
that church has made ample provision for its
aged people by erecting the immense estab- !
Usbmeat on Weils street, in charge of the
untiring Litile Sisters of the Poor. Although
All Saints cathedral parish (Episcopal) have
a home for aged women, St. Paul's congre
gation will probably represent the Episcopa
lians in the new scheme.
A MILU NEEDED REFORM.
The erratic grades of the sidewalks along
Milwaukee's business streets has furnished j
the press from time immemorial with food:
for editorials and locals. They have also |
furnished city attorneys with labor of defense !
[or suits for damages for injuries received in j
accident* attributable touueveuness in walks '
The city ordinance, on the matter like many
another ordinance, was very elastic. It pro- ■
vided that the grade of tbe sidewalk should
conform to the grade of the street us far as
practicable, and tt\c height to which practica- !
bility has carried some of the walks is truly !
astonishing. Now there is to be a new order •
of Linn;;-, iv this particular. The evil has be
come so apparent that the board of aldermen
was forced to provide a remedy in a new law
which has just gone into effect. It specifics i
that the grade of sidewalks at the curb line !
sbu.ll be the same as the established grade at |
the center of the street, and that the grade of '
sidewalks on the lut live shall vary accordiug ■
to the width of the walks from 2-10 to f>-10
of a Tout higher. But passing and enforcing
an ordinance arc two different things, and it i
j remains to be seen whether this legal prom- ■,
: reform w 11 be more tbau a dead letter.
The board of public works having com
plained of the taolttness of the old ordinance ;
■ cannot consistently pass tbe new one by
■ without uu effort at enforcement.

He Simply Did Hit Public Duty
[Catholic Mirror.]
On the faith of Catholic journals in New
York we echoed the charge of opposition to
the Freedom o' Worship bill against Gov.
Cleveland before he was nominated for
President by the Democratic party. It Is
only just to record in our columns that those
i papers (except the Catholic Ra-inc) now with
draw the charge and exonerate Mr. Cleve
land from all fault in retard to the miscar
riage of that measure. Gen. Tracey, in a
letter to the Boston Pilot, even go's so far as
to assert that the bill was imperfectly drawn,
although the good intentions of the sup
porters of tbe measure cannot be doubted.
The General says that If the bill had passed
in the shape in which it was offered it would
have caused, in the opinion of several
thoughtful priests, serious embarrassment
to many Catholic institutions From the
full and -id pie details that have now been
laid before the public, and which we have
examined with keen interest, we are pre
pared to say that Gov. Cleveland, so far
from opposing the right* of Catholics, has.
on the contrary, shown them full justice in
his official career.
Do not for a moment let your confidence
betray you into supposing yourself incapable
of mistake. It i* indeed a serious blunder
to refuse to take Dr. Bull's Cough Svup
when you even suspect you have taken cold.

VERDICT OF MANSLAUGHTER.
A Narrow Escape from the Halter for
Loyd Porter— Sentences ill the
District Court Yes

' The Lloyd Porter murder case was given
to the jury at 4 p. m. Friday afternoon, and
the jury remained in considering their ver
dict until 10:15 Saturday morning, when an
agreement was reached fixing the grade of
Porter's crime as murder in the second de
gree, for which the penalty is fixed by law.
imprisonment in the penitentiary for -life.
In the course of their long deliberation the
jury took fourteen ballots, the instruction of
the court being that the verdict must fix the
grade of crime as murder in the first degree,
or murder in the second degree, or find for
acquittal, the ground for the latter being in
sanity. The ballots were as follows: '
1 Murder. Ist degree, 6; Acquittal, 6

Pending the seventh ballot a proposition
to return a verdict of manslaughter was en
tertained and discussed, but under the in
structions of the court was decided to be im
practicable. The tenth ballot shows the ex
tremely narrow chance by which the accused
man escaped the death penalty. The finding
of the verdict of murder in the second degree
was accompanied with a recommendation to
clemency, which, while showing the humane
inclination of the jury, was of no avail, as
the law has shut the door to all discretion.
Porter received the verdict with an evident
sense of relief, as he had clearly feared the
worst.
On the announcement of this verdict and
discharge of the jury Counsel Erwin for the
defense moved for a new trial on the
grounds of exceptions taken. by the defense
during the progress of the trial and also that
the verdict was contrary to the evidence,
which motion was taken under advisement

Now, that the opera season commences, a
word might be said about suitable dress for
ladies who attend operatic performances.
Those who have the privilege to occupy the
the best boxes or box seats make it natural
ly a feature to dress handsomely. They arc
thereto be looked at by their friends and the
public, generally. Those who occupy the
I orchestra seats and parquet, or any other
, part of the house deem it optional to item
I well or not, as fancy takes them. To ray
mindfit appears that there is no option in the
case, an that the body of the house below
should particular!* present a cheerful and
agreeable appearance. "This con not possibly
be the case if sombre, shabby or large sized
i bonnets and dingy dresses are worn. Small
\ bright bonnets should be de rigueur and that
1 drew which is called demi toilette. In fact,
any pretty dress, with something light around
the throat, will do. The lady who disregards
. appearance when attending the opera has no
i real sympathy with the style of performance.
It is an absolute necessity for women to be
well or prettily dressed at the open.

In going to the office of the train dis
patcher of the Manitoba railroad at 1 o'clock
this morning, elicited the information that
the passenger train which left Crookstori on
the main linu ot the road, met with an ac
cident about 8 o'clock last night. The train
was running about twenty miles an hour
and when forty miles south of Crookston
the baegage car and two coaches went oil
the track. The accident was caused by the
the breaking down of a shallow culvert which
had caught tire from the sparks of a passing
train and partially burned away.
The engine passed over in
safety but the baggage car
and two of the coaches went off the track,
hut fortunately broke loose from the engine
aud were not overturned. The passengers
were pretty badly shaken up and frightened,
but no one was hurt. The accident occurred
sume miles from a station and considerable
time was lost before relief came.
The train waa due here at 7:30 o'clock this
morn inc. but Its' arrival will be delayed sev
eral hours.
. TERRIBLE GAS EXPLOSION.
Moxtbeal, Oct. 23. — A terrible gas explo
sion occurred thi6 morning in the residence
of J. R. Hutchins, on first street, completely
wrecking the bouse, blowing out all windows
and carrying away the gable end. The furn
iture, beds, bedding and household effects
were thrown into the street in all directions.
The windows of adjoining residences were
shattered, and bricks and debris carried a
•ireat distance. The servants were slcepins
in the basement when the explosion
occurred, aud suffered most severely, two
being terribly scorched, receiving serious
and in one cusp fatal iujuries. MiiS Hutch
ins was also badly scorched about the face.
Her bed was against the gable which was
blown out. She had a narrow escape. In
vestigation proves a hole nearly an iuch in
circumference existed in the pipe below the
meter, but how this flaw occurred is a mys
tery unless caused by the plumbers, who
were at work in the house yesterday.

Last Day of the W. C. T. U,
St. Lovis, Oct. 25. — The Woman's Chris
tian Temperance union is holding its last
day's session. The forenoon session was
wholly devoted to the discussion of the fol
lowing resolution :
We refer to the history of ten years of the
moral suusion work as fully establishing our
c-iaim to be called a non-political society, but
wliieh follows the white flag of prohibition
1 wherever it may be displayed. We have.
I however, as individuals, allied ourselves in
I local aud state political contests with those
voters whose efforts aud ballots have been
given for the removal of the dramshop aud
its attendant evils, and at this time, while
recognizing that our action as a national so
ciety is not binding upon states or individu
als, we reaffirm the position taken by the so
ciety both at Louisville in 1882
and at Detroit in -1883, pledging
our . influence to that party
by whatever name called, which shall fur
nish the best embodiment of prohibition
principles and will more surely protect our
homes and us. We know which national
party gives us the desired embodiment of
principles for which our ten years labor was
exj>cnded. ' We will continue to aid the po
litical organization which declares in its
platform for national prohibition and home
protection.
' The following amendment was submitted:
JietolvetL That we heartily endorse the
course of the national committee in keeping
with the obligations made at Detroit to sup
port by the women's influence whatever
political party would incorporate the princi
ple of home protection from saloon destruc
tion. We are not in any sen.-c a political
organization, but the workers of the up
building of every grace that will make the
people happier and the public sentiment for
total abstinence and total prohibition.
The discussion of the resolution and
amendment was general, earnest and ani
mated throughout the morning session, and
the convention seemed about evenly divided.
Tin- matter will be continued this afternoon.
A result will probably be reached this even
ing.
