It Looks as though Commissioner Sparks wanted to get out of the land office. He is evidently seeking to give the secretary of the interior some provocation for request ing his resignation. The great body of the people have faith in Mr. 'integrity. They sustained him in his big fight with the land rings. They believed him when he said that the whole public laud system was honey-combed with fraud, and they were anxious to see him inaugurate the reforms that he promised when he took charge of the department. There has also been a suspicion in the public mind that Gen. Sparks has not had the support and encouragement that he deserved to receive from congress and from the national ad ministration. All these things have had a tendency to enlist public sympathy in his behalf and to array public sentiment on his eide. But it must be admitted that the public has not been satisfied with the methods that the commissioner has adopted to expose the frauds which were supposed to exist in the land department and to ' establish the reform which he had prom ' ised. He has been slow in his movements and exceedingly arbitrary in his conduct. ' The people are anxious to see the proofs :of the frauds that have been committed land they want to see the rascals turned into the penitentiary, and they are grow ling a little restive under Commissioner -Sparks' delay in this matter. But while ' they are a wee bit impatient in this re l spect, their impatience is not so I great as to justify the land commissioner in refusing to execute the i laws which are now on the statute books. His recent order directing the registers and j receivers to receive no new filings on new ■ applications for entry under the pre-emp ! tion, timber culture and desert land laws, 1 simply because congress is considering the question of their repeal, is one step too far lin stretching official authority. It is an j arbitrary and unwarranted exercise of | power which cannot be tolerated. It ;is just as reasonable that the president should direct a suspension of the constitution because congress is considering an amendment to the organic law as that the head of a department should suspend a law because it is likely to ;be repealed. It is probable that congress will repeal the timber culture law, as it , ought to do, but until it is repealed it is [ the duty of the commissioner and of every j other official in the land department to \ respect its provisions and to enforce them. ' It is the duty of an executive officer to en force the laws, not to suspend them. a . EXPELLING TIIE ROYALISTS. The French people are satisfied with their experiment of self-government and now propose to perpetuate the republic. The - most important step in this direction is the . expulsion of all descendants of royalty ; from the country. At first glance this looks ! to be a harsh measure on the part of the - French Republicans, aud yet it is the wisest \ tiling they can do. These sprigs of i royalty have their heads chock full iof the idea of the divine right iof kings. They believe that they hold k- a title direct from heaven to the French L throne. Consequently they are fanatical j in their opinions and as such are dangerous j enemies to the French republic. There is * no hope of ever converting these royalists !to a republican faith. As long as they re i main in France they will be constantly in f triguing to overthrow the government, in , the belief that a restoration of monarchy is j a religious duty. Therefore the French re ; public has no alternative but to banish : them from the country and to keep them ,• out. The scion of royalty is to France what the anarchist is to this country ( revolutionist who is a perpetual menace to j the peace of the nation. * THE "WILY CZAR. So far as foreign policy is concerned, the j "Russian government is displaying more wisdom than Great Britain. The czar is j either a statesman of the first water, or he < has some cabinet minister close in his confi ■ dence who is a master diplomat. The suc i cess which Russia has met with in concil ; iating Turkey, Persia, and outlying regions | of the Orient, and attaching them tb the ! Russian government, is a stroke of diplo i macy which England will feel later along. It is true . that the British government is so engrossed with its internal troubles that it doesn't find much time to devote to its foreign affairs. But the czar is shrewd in taking advantage of England's domestic embarrassments to work the Oriental field for all it is worth. It would be wisdom for England to dispose of the home rule question and all other perplexing local issues at once and turn its attention to the East, or it will wake up one of these fine mornings and find that it is dispossessed entirely of its Oriental property. ERLY'S DECLINATION. lt is in a line with the wisdom which has characterized his course since having been brought into prominence as the leader of the Knights of Labor that Mr. Powderly declines to allow his name to be entertained in connection with the governorship of Pennsylvania. His words in asserting his - unwillingness to allow his name to be thus used go far also towards furnishing an esti mate of the character of the man. There -? is more than a possibility that, should he accept a nomination, Mr. Powderly could be elected to the chief magistracy of the Keystone state." But carrying out the fund amental principles of the order, he declares that even were he a candidate he should re fuse to trade upon his relations with an or der avowedly non-political in its constitu tion. lie doubtless recognizes what the rest of the country will readily admit, that lie can be of more service to the cause of the:. workingmen as the cool-headed, far-seeing leader of the Knights of Labor than lie could be occupying the executive's chair. It is not often that the leader ot a movement so far-reaching in its membership and so comprehensive in its aims as that of which Mr. Powderly is the head, possesses in such an eminent de giee as the present master workman, tho conservatism and judgment which are sure to win the sympathy and approval of an impartial public ami which are necessary to harmonize the discordant elements existing in eveiy similar organization. When, then, such a leader is found aud when his leader ship lias been weighed in the balance of public opinion and found far from wanting, it is both discreet and wise to retain him. The American people think well of Mr. Powderly, and they prefer seeing him oc cupy his present position to venturing upon the troubled sea of politics, where his present usefulness would soon be swallowed up. DEER PARK. Deer Park, the place whither the presi dent lias hied away, with his bonnie bride to enjoy the bliss of the honeymoon, is one of the most delightful summer resorts in the United States. It is situated on the top of the Allegheny mountains in the western part of Maryland, near the West Virginia line, at an attitude of nearly 3,000 feet . above sea level. It is on the line of the main stem of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad and the elegant hotel at Deer Park is owned' by theß.&O. company. Ex-Senator Henry G. Davis was the original owner of Deer Park and is still the proprietor of an estate of several thousand acres in the neighbor hood of the famous summer resort. He sold the land on which the hotel and cot tages are built to the Baltimore & Ohio Bailroad company, which commenced im proving the place in 1873. On the 4th of July, 1574, the Deer Park hotel was opened under the management of the railroad com pany and at once became a popular resort for the wealthy people of Baltimore and Washington. A number of private cottages, some of them very elegant ones, have also been built at Deer Park, the most notable being those owned by the late John W. Garrett, Hon. H. G. Davis, Hon. S. B. Elkins and ex-Mayor Latroce of Balti more. Deer Park is a place where the president can rest in calm contemplation and poetic ease. It is situated on a high table land, from which lie can overlook four great states of the union. From a prominence just in front of the Davis cottage a mag nificent view stretches before the . eye. A grand natural panorama of moun tain and valley stretches in all directions, with nothing to bound the pros pect except the limit of vision. From this elevated point one can overlook the states of Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia. The Davis cottage, whose hospitalities the president and his bride are enjoying, is one of the most charming sum mer houses in the South. It is situated in the midst of a lovely grove of giant oaks, and at this season of the year the wide , stretching lawns and meadows in front of the cottage are clothed in vestments of green. The sweet-scented woodbine creeps wantonly round the casements of the cottage and decks the sod seats at the door. A driveway of twenty-live or thirty miles has recently been constructed through the park. Streams of limpid water gush from the mountain top and dash off on either side some dashing down the east ward slope and emptying their waters into the classic Potomac, while others wend their way down the western slope of the Alleghenies and find their way into the mighty Ohio. These mountain streams are the home of the speckled trout, while through the neighboring woodlands of the mountain crest the deer stalks in the free enjoyment of his vast estate of mountain area, rock-ribbed as it is and ancient as the sun. The gobble of the wild turkey and the drumming sound of the pheasant's wings as he beats his lonely tattoo at even tide are familiar sounds at Deer Park. What a pleasure it must be to the presi dent to steal away from the cold, heartless capital, with its forms and dull routine, its artificial manners and arbitrary rules, its cheerless pleasures and mirthless mask ing and find the charm which nature yields to her votaries in the warbling wood* land and in the garniture of fields. Of all the places in the world, Deer Park, with its great meadows and silent glens, is the most charming spot in which to spend a honeymoon. It was just like the big-hearted proprietor of the Davis cottage to proffer his delightful summer home to the president for his use during the honey moon season, and there is no other place this side of the green fields and living waters of Beulah land that the president's eyes could have rested on more longingly. Mr. Cleveland's married life commences under the most favorable auspices that earth can afford. May his shadow never grow less nor his joys be dimmed, is the wish of the great people over whose destinies he has been called to preside. A "NEAT .LITTLE SCHEME. That is a very shrewd combination which is set forth in another colnmn as having been arranged between two prominent gub ernatorial candidates, Messrs. Gi bbs and Gilman. It is a kind of scheme whereby each candidate will win whichever way the election goes, provided the voters are ac commodating enough to restrict the choice to these two gentlemen. As the story runs, when the two candidates go into the con vention their respective strength will be thoroughly canvassed. Then the one who has the smaller number of delegates will throw his strength to the other, and assure his nomination. But this magnanimity is not founded, upon purely* disinterested friendship, and an unbiased desire that the interests of the . farmers may be protected by elevation . to the governor ship of one of two men so famous for their unselfish sympathy for tint sturdy and hardworking class of citizens. It would perhaps be rather too much to expect 'such an exhibition of fraternal love in the scope of modem politics. The matter is expected to be arranged in a way that will bring a distin ct and substantial reward to the self sacrificing candidate. His successful op ponent is to appoint him oil inspector, a position which, if it does not carry with it, as much glory as 'ihe governorship, has cer tain solid attractions not to be lightly cast aside. Thus if "it comes about that we shall say "Governor Gilman," it will fol low as a corallory that we must add "Oil Inspector Giebs," and vice versa. It is certainly a very clever arrangement. The only question is, .Will the delegates give them* an opportunity for carrying it into effect? ; is_B9RBifIHBBB m AGAIN IN THE FIELD. Despite the semi-authoritative announce ments which have appeared from time to time to the effect that Mr. Blame is not a candidate for the ; Republican presidential nomination, his home rule speech in Port land can be considered in no other lightthan that of placing him once more squarely in the field. Experience has proven that Mr. Blame is not a man to waste his sym pathy. When he does extend it he is pretty sure to have a definite object in view. His nature' is not one which spontaneously responds to the cries of the oppressed with out any .consideration of self. On the contrary the shrewd man from Maine has __«_■______■„ __iii _____■_■»____________. _T. PAUL DAILY GLOBB FRIDAY MORNING, JXTNE 4, 1886. * always displayed a wonderful faculty for looking out for number one and a certain degree of unscrupu lousness in his methods of advancing the iuterests of that individual, whether it is a matter of sentiment or cents. However that may be, there no doubt is considerable con sternation just at present in the houses of Logan,' Sherman, et al. They find they will have to be up and stirring if they are to prove worthy, competitors of Mr. Cleve land's vanquished opponent. Already they are badly handicapped by the start which ho has taken. They may well fear, therefore, that, unless he develops a lack of staying powers, Mr. Blame will pass un der the wire first. And when it comes to a matter of staying lie has never in the course of a long and varied political career shown any tendency to leave or lag so long as an office was in sight. — ■ OUR AMERICAN JEPTIIE. Attorney General Garland is a man who believes in living up to a vow, and has had occasion to demonstrate the sincerity of his belief. Mr. GarlanD is one of the few surviving heroes of Whig politics who took a vow* never to wear a spike-tail coat until Henry Clay was inaugurated presi dent of the United States. He has faithfully performed his vow. When the members of the cabinet were invited to •ittendthe presi dential wedding, it was with the intimation that they were expected to attend in full dress. A spike-tail coat is the one essential feature of a full dress suit. Rather than violate his vow, Mr. Garland stayed away from the wedding and took chances of expulsion from the cabinet. The Philadelphia pictorial bureau will no doubt feel highly complimented when it learns that the picture of the president's bride (schedule price thirty-five cents, cash in advance) which is furnished the Minneap olis Tribune in common with numerous other equally enterprising newspapers, has elicited unqualified approval, as our estimable Minne apolis contemporary states, from the presi dent. It is these cheering little marks of commendation which lighten the restless rou tine of newspaper work. The Globe has not tho slightest doubt but that the Tribune was eminently correct in stating that "the presi dent never saw anything like the picture be fore," even though he has seen his bride grow from childhood to womanhood. — —^ ■ . Mr. Guiness of Chicago, now in Minne apolis, should judiciously conceal the name of the place whence he comes, when attempt ing to convince the university authorities that he possesses a secret method of churning whereby twelve pounds of butter can be pro duced where only four came before. That in effect is just, what the Chicago oleomargariu manufactures do, but the general public is hardly willing to accept their increased pro duct as butter pure and simple. . The annual agitation of the early closing movement is now beginning, and ■it is cer tainly very seasonable. With a combined movement wearied salesmen and clerks could be accorded their earnings and the business interests of employers would not suffer in the least. The 6 o'clock closing movement is spreading in other cities.- St. Paul should keep up with the procession. ' " There seems to he culpable negligence somewhere regarding the financial arrange ments for the Winona term of the United States district court. One adjournment be cause of the lack of money to pay the court's expenses might be excusable, but since it has become a regular thing, it seems to be time to discover where the fault lies and to insist upon its removal. The types yesterday made the Globe say that the convention of the Traveler's Protect ive association would be held in Baltimore on July 23. The correct date is June 23. It is to be hoped that the mistake will not de prive the Monumental city of the presence of a single tourist. Another Democratic club has been formed in St. Paul. The more the better. There will be room for valiant work on their part before many months roll by, and that they will not be found lacking the Republican brethren from sad experience know full well. The belligerent spirit among the Canadians keeps up. It really looks as though the United States might have to send an able bodied seaman up the coast in a skiff with a cat-o' -nine-tails to bring about a more peace ful feeling among our excitable brethren. Col. Glenn should beware of pickpockets on his return. There will be among the en terprising reporters and certain others con siderable curiosity to see whether within his tightly buttoned coat lurks a document havin reference to Uncle Sam's postal service. If Northwestern No. 1 hard wheat is tam pered with en route so that it reaches foreign markets in an inferior condition, it behooves Northwestern dealers to find it out and to prevent, by law if necessary, the fraud. An occasional fine for fast driving is still being collected in the municipal court. If the arrests and fines were in proportion to the offenses, tho city's tax levy might be ma terially reduced next year. A 'unique wedding present to the president and his bride wtml . be an album of the vari ous pictures published of the latter, and that printed in the Globe would deservedly oc cupy the first page. Among the numerous wedding congratula tions none were neater than those sent by the Minnesota Odd Fellows. The president is an odd fellow, indeed, if ho does not appreci ate its spirit. The only congratulations which were c on spicuous by their absence were those which might have been sent by Senator Jones had his own suit fared differently. — ■ Mathew Arnold has arrived in New York. It seems to be about time for the nim ble cartwheel dollar to roll into cover, the denser the better. And now every summer resort in the coun try will be green with envy over the magnifi cent advertisement which Deer Park, Md., is receiving. Duluth having secured another roller mill company, again defiantly bites her thumb at Minneapolis. — •— Canadian Refentes. Ottawa, Ont., June Before parliament adjourned yesterday, and while the vote ap propriating $25,000 for military works and defenses in British Columbia "was being taken. Sir Adolphe Garron . explained that the object of the measure was to provide exten sive earthworks and other military defences, which would cost in all about $100,00"*. the imperial government proposed to furnish the guns, torpedoes, etc., which would cost from $125,000 to $150,000. The purpose which the imperial government had in view was to make Victoria and Esquimalt imperial sta tions on the Pacific ocean. A graving dock is now being constructed at Esquimalt, toward which the imperial government contributes $250,000. When these works are finished Es quimalt will be one of the most important military stations of the empire. The Orangemen. Toronto, June 3.— The Orange Grand lodge of British North American in session here unanimously adopted the following re solution: Resolved, That this Grand Lodge of British North America take this oppor tunity of declaring the continued loyalty of the Orange association in' Canada to the British crown : and the unity 'of the empire and our determined opposition to the Gladstonian attempt to pander to the solicitations of Parnellites and other disloyal parties throughout Ireland and in the British dominion in general, and we hereby pledge ourselves to aid and support the Loyalists of Ireland, by men and means if necessary, in their struggle to maintain the integrity of the empire and their civil and re ligious liberties." i* — i Shot a. Desperado. San Antonio, Tex., June 3.— Joe Brannon, a noted desperado, and a member of the gang that murdered United States Marshal Gosling, was killed last evening fifteen miles up the Leon river by Deputy United States Marshals Edwards and William Van' Riper while resisting arrest. The officers had a desperate encounter with the fugitive, finally sending a bullet through his lungs. - MIDST THE MADDING T HEONQ. . . . Had the author of the treatise ou negative etlquette.language aud deportment generally, under tho title of "Don't," been a resident of _H St. Paul at the present time, he would certainly have In cluded In his book certain paragraphs on the misuse of tho French word "nee." A certain museum in the capi tal city, in advertising the appearance of the widow of the lato Charles Stratton, better known as Gen. Tom Thumb, makes very peculiar use of tho word "nee." *. * It should be remembered that Mrs. Tom Thumb bo-j fore her marriage was known to her friends and acquaintances as Miss Lavinia Warren. For years she was the loving-, tender and traveling consort of the pigmy military man. After his death she put ou black and played the widow for a respectable length of time, at the end of which she permitted herself to be taken as tho helpmeet of Count Rosobub, a small edition of a good-sized man. The advertisement above referred to an nounces the appearance of "Count aud Countess Rosebud, nee Mrs. Tom Thumb." *** The misuse of the word Is not confined to museum advertisements, as it is sometimes apparent in the society columns of newspa pers, whose compilers aro supposed to be familiar with the correct use of such terms. No one for a moment will question the mis use of the word in the sentence above quoted. It will be readily admitted by all that to be used correctly the maiden name, "Warren," of the diminutive little woman, should have followed "nee," in place of "Mrs. Tom Thumb.". A very general error in the columns de voted to society is the use of the word fol lowed by the entire na.ne of tho person at the time of her marriage in place of her family name. For instance the society editor speaks of "Mrs. L. M. Smith, nee Louisa M. Oliver," instead of "Mrs. L. M. Smith, nee Oliver." *_* The dissolution of partnership existing be tween Brugh & Truman, the proprietors of the Ryan, and the possible retirement of the two from the active management of the hotel brings to mind the peculiar way in which the partnership was originally formed, as prior to taking the house they were perfect strangers to each other. According to Mr. Truman he was passing through Chicago from New York to Kansas City, to look after a hotel at the latter place. It was in the winter of 1884-5. On reaching Chicago he ascertained that, the westward bound roads were blockaded with the snow and were unable to send out any trains. *.* To while away the time he visited a friend connected with a hotel publication and from the latter learned that Dennis Ryan of St. Paul was looking for a tenant for the Ryan which would be opened the following sum mer. He also learned that Mr. Brugh of Bos ton was figuring on the hotel and desired a partner. Telegrams passed between Truman, Brugh and Ryan, and the result of the conference which followed was that Brugh and Truman constituted the firm under whose auspices the Ryan was opened. The Onlooker. lowa masons. Special to the Globe. Dcs Moines, la., June 3. The Masonic grand lodge to-day concluded its labors, in cluding the installation of officers for the en suing year. matter familiar to grand lodge delegates for many years past was effectually disposed of and probably in a wav to prevent its recurrence hereafter.

Roberts, senior grand deacon; John H. Keller of Mount Pleasant, junior grand deacon; Theodore Schreinerof Mount Pleas ant, grand trier; William Stevens Perm of Davenport, grand chaplain." 7 . . A Canadian Gets a Dose. Chicago, June 3. The Canadian steam barge Nipigon arrived here to-day in a sink ing condition and under circumstances possessing peculiar interest in view of the clashing between American and Canadian marine interests. She was loaded with stone from Vest Island, Lake Superior, for this city. The Jaw requires foreign vessels enter ing American waters :to stop at ' the first United States port on their routes and obtain permission to proceed from the collector thereof. Capt. Conlan of the Nifigon says he experienced a heavy gale and his vessel sprung a leak so badly that it became neces sary to work the pumps day and night to keep her afloat; that he made all haste to make this port, not daring te stop at either Macki naw or Sheboygan, as required by law, lest his vessel might go to the bottom with all on board. The penalty for the violation of this law ,is the forfeiture of the vessel and cargo. C_pt. Conland to-day laid the matter before Collector Seeberger who said he could do nothing in the premises except to enforce the law, but advised him to forward a statement of the facts to the tieas ury department at Washington, which the captain did. Pending further developments the Nipigon will not be allowed to leave this port. Badger Veterans. Special to the Globe. . ?v ;• Madison, Wis., Juno 3.

A MARVELOUS ESCAPE. Remarkable Exploit of a Man. Who Was Being Taken to the Scene of His Crime. He Leaps From an Ocean Steamer and Swims to the Land Eleven Miles Away. A Young "Woman of Dedham, Mass., Disappears Under suspicious Circumstances. Heavy Ball Demanded for the Chicago ___• Anarcl__st_--Buddenslel_ Sent to Sing Sing. A Remarkable Escape. Special to the Globe. Galveston, Tex., June The arrest of a slick, daring fugitive was effected last evening, eight miles .down Galveston island. Dick Lacouse is the prisoner's name.?, He is wanted at Gloucester, Mass., for jump ing his bond in a case of aggravated as sault. Lacouse has an interesting history. He is 3'_ years of age, a perfectly trained athlete aud one of the best swimmers, boxers and pedestrians m the country. He came here ten months ago and opened a small restaurant. He was recently joined by Maud Edson, the very woman whose life he attempted in Glouces ter, for assaulting whom he gave .2,000 bonds. His bondsmen • traced him to this city a month ago, and M. J. Healy, a shrewd officer, was detailed to bring Lacouse back to Gloucester. Healy ar rived the first week in May, quietly ar rested his man and took him aboard the steamship San Marcos. Healy had been warned that Lacouse was a remarkable swimmer, so he ironed his man and chained him to his berth. After the San Marcos put to sea, the kind hearted detective un shackled Lacouse and allowed him to walk about the ship and play cards with the pas sengers, none of whom knew the man was a captured fugitive. The San Marcos stopped off at Newport News May 8 for coal. Healy again shackled his prisoner, but that evening as the steamship was rapidly leaving the outer roads, where the sea was very rough, Healy unchained his companion, who soon became engrossed in a game of cards, Healy going above to enjoy a cigar. Five minutes later a passen ger joined Healy and informed, him the card party had broken up, as Lacouse had quit the cabin. Healy immediately returned to the cabin, searched everywhere, but all to no avail. For the first time in his life the detective found his man TOO SLICK FOR HIM. Capt. Burrows ordered the ship's officers to search the San Marcos from keel to masthead, which they did, but no prisoner was found. They were eleven miles from land when this occurred. Every one sup posed Lacouse had drowned himself in a foolhardy attempt to reach land. Healy proceeded to New York and reported the extraordinary escape, which created a sen sation in police circles. The first knowl edge local officers had that Lacouse had survived his marvelous leap was last even ing, when his pseudo wife, Maud Edson, appeared at the of fice of Chief of Police Jordan and swore out a warrant, charging that Lacouse had again attempted her life and she was living in mortal dread of him. She divulged his hiding place down the island. It seems that he has been coming to the city late at night and visiting the woman. Chief Jor dan and four mounted officers started down the island this afternoon. Lacouse saw the cavalcade in the distance, guessed they were alter him, and down the island he flew. The officers followed, their horses taxed to the utmost to overtake the runner. The chase continued five miles along the seashore and Lacouse was finally captured under a farm house. He says it took him five hours to swim eleven miles in the dark off Newport News. The cur rent was running four knots an hour. It was the most perilous venture he had ever undertaken. He says he saw Healy and the officers of the San Marcos flash their lights about the decks and over the side of the ship looking for him. He was laughing at them from the dark water iv the distance. After reaching land and dry ing his clothes he took a train for the south, and was back in Galveston ten days after his escape. It is believed he threatened to kill the Edson woman, suspecting her infi delity. He declares, however, he would not harm her. Healy, of Chicago, will probably be detailed a second time to land his formidable prisoner in New York. Anarchists Admitted to Bail. Chicago, June 3. This afternoon States Atty. Grinnell and his assistants met Capt. , Black and Mr. Zeister of counsel for the indicted anarchists in Judge Rogers' court room in order to fix a sum for bail for Os car Neebe. States Atty. Grinnell said in dictments had been returned against Neebe for murder conspiracy and riot. As re garded every other person mentioned in the indictment for murder, the state would object ab initio agaiust each and every one of them beingjadmitted to bail, but by agree ment with counsel Neebe was made an ex ception. Capt. Black made an appeal in favor of Neebe and was followed by Attor ney Zeister, who charged that the siates attorney had no confidence in his case, or lie would not have admitted Neebe to bail. Mr. . Grinnell resented the insinuation. Judge Rogers said: "After mature delib eration I have made up my mind to mit (.scar Neebe to bail as follows:" On each charge of roits 000; on the conspiracy in dictment 82,500; on the murder indictment $12,500. As there are two indictments for riot or inciting to riot it will make his total bonds SIT. OOO. This I do at the suggestion of the states attorney and under his agree ment with counsel. In order to save time and to simplify matters all the parties who are indicted for conspiracy will be admitted to bail on each charge in the sum of 32,500.

Dedham, Mass., June 3.— Annie Riley, daughter of Patrick Riley, one of the pret tiest girls in town, has been missing since Monday evening. She had been employed by Mr. Ward Larapson on River street. She visited her home on Monday evening. In returning to her place of work about 8:30. she started to make a short cut across a cemetery and through a lonely field skirted by woods. She has not been seen since she turned off the street into the cemetery.

Detroit, Mich., June 3.— The death of Andrew Sheeler, found dead in bed, is re garded with great interest by the physi cians. Although there is no evidence of foul play, they are unwilling, under the cir cumstances, to say that he came to his death from natural causes. What puzzles them most is the peculiar sickening and drowsy sensation felt by Airs. Sheeler when she first awoke. This, coupled with the finding of Mr. Sheeler dead with a cloth over his face, has led to the theory that some subtle, poison or drug was used on the husband and wife. The latter aroused from its effects, and getting out of bed en countered the intruder, when she was struck upon the forehead. Sheeler's stom ach was turned over to Dr. E. J. Clarke to make an analysis of its contents. His ex amination thus far has revealed no evi dence of poison. A vial of ether was found, but there was no evidence of its use by the dead man.

The Deadly Opium Habit in the Gay and Wicked Oity of Chicago. Champagne Cocktail and Sherry Served ln Japanese Teapots. Fair Poker Gamblers — Scaring: the Clergy--A Bride Devotion. Chicago Letter. There are perhaps, a dozen women be longing to upper tehdom who are hopelessly addicted to opium and have been for ten years. One of these victims moves in the best society. As it is she doesn't care for anything but the poppy, to which home, husband and friends are sacrificed. To society she is an interesting invalid, to her family a disgrace and to her husband a source of incalculable annoyance and humiliation. Another woman, who is also well known, is indebted to her popularity for the vice to which she is a slave. In continual demand and possessed of but slight strength she took the drug to stimulate her for the duties of hostess and soon found herself un able to dispense with its use. Her husband positively forbade the purchase by her of more opium. He further restricted her by threatening to discharge any of the servants known to make any purchases in any drug store without first consulting with him. For a time his wife drove to remote ding stores and made her own purchases, but it did not take her long to learn that the pres ence of her elegant coupe in a street like Archer avenue or Centre would arouse suspicion and eventually lead to her ident ity in spite of her early hours and heavy veil. A MEDICAL ACCOMPLICE. She spared herself all this annoyance by quietly confiding to her physician, from whom she received her first instruction, the dilemma in which she was placed and de manding that he procure her the stimulant. This was six years ago, and ever since the physician has been at her mercy, al though his fees from this patient alone are sufficient to sustain him without any other practice. It is said that this woman's vin aigrette is filled, not with perfume, nor Arabic salts, but with opium, which she takes as soon as she enters her carriage en route for a party or entertainment, the groom being directed to protons the ride twenty minutes unless the distance is suffi cient to consume that amount of time. Her vagaries are said to cost her husband an average of .300 a week and to his outraged affection and homeless fireside his premature age is due. * Another beautiful lady, who twelve years ago married for money and found the cost dearer than she had expected, is under the influence of the same fatal drug all the time her husband is likely to be at home. She is rarely seen in society with him, and would gladly hire an assassin to put him out of the way if she were not afraid of de tection. HEAVY DRINKING. The amount of drinking in high life is simply immense. Women who do not have it in their homes, and are afraid to have their alcoholic drinks smuggled in, are as regular as they dare to be in their visits to the fashsonable restaurants. At these places, for instance, these wine bibbers have their very fears anticipated and their champagne cocktails and sherry punches are served in a Japanese teapot with deep but narrow cups of thick dark ware, which by reflection will make the liauor of light color in appearance. Here ladies will sit and drink as much as they dare, leaving untouched the toast or wafers, which are only ordered for effect : Nobody would ever guess the contents of those innocent looking teapots. The diners have only to play with a wafer in case of any intrusion and accidentally spill some perfume from their cut-glass bottles to neutralize a possible lingering smell of alcohol. The women who drink in this way are not vulgar in the common significance of the term; but to drink wine openly in a public restaurant, however select, would be to indorse their own expulsion from so ciety. Some very sad stories are told of this class of women, whom stress of cir cumstances or animalism has so debased. HE DRUNK, SHE IN TEARS. Not long ago the degenerate son of a wealthy foundryman married a beautiful young lady of twenty, who loved him so much that she believed firmly in her ability to reform him. She was refined, but poor and ambitious. The young pair visited his mother, who did not look with affection on the son's choice of a companion for life — an opinion in which the rest of the family concurred. For the sake of appearances, the naughty mother-in-law sent out cards for a reception, to which everybody re sponded but the groom and his young bride, the former being in his room drunk and the latter with him in tears. Although the mother's excuses seemed plausible enough on the surface, the belief prevailed that there was a skeleton in the closet of very recent arrival. That night the bride received her first lesson in intemperance, and the practice has been kept up with fatal assiduity. The young husband's interest in a foundry necessitates his pres ence in the office from eight to four, and all the rest of his time he spends in his room, which contains a well-furnished chamber buffet. As the supply is con stant there is nothing to take the wife from the apartment where she has lived in seclu- . sion ever since ISSO. Her mother-in-law's pride is all the defense she could wish, but "indisposed," "not at home,"' or "en gaged." is the only acknowledgement that any of her friends' calls have received since her marriage. WOMEN GAMBLERS. ' It is a well-known fact in the ministry that in Chicago women will not tolerate being talked to about the well-known vices of society. More than one member of the cloth has had his series of rich people's mis doings brought to a sudden close by a letter, or letters, the tone of which convinced him that it would be jeopardizing his pastorate to continue the tirade. The result is that the women who live in the madding whirl of fashionable life and yet who are identi fied with ail the fashionable churches in the city, tolerate no reproof, and the growth of their ranks is something incredible. Gam* bling is the lesser of three or four vices, since it is limited to the short racing season and the wagers are generally small. Poker, however, is a favorite game, and there are rumors of scores of well-known wives and widows who play for high stakes and pinch their household accounts in order to save money with which to meet their debts of honor. Most ot the gambling is done in the afternoon, when the husband is not home. The^rgus-eyed nurse girl and the children are sent out for a drive, and from noon till 1 or 2 o'clock the game of draw is played for all it is worth, scarcely half an hour being spent for lunch. Speculators, commission men. merchants and bankers are not more frequent at these quiet gaming lunches than lawyers and doctors. and none know better how to account for their casual call at Mrs. D's than Mrs. -M., who has played with just such fire .herself, and in all probability was badly scorched. For some reason or other, 'women, no matter how affluent, do no. care to play without men, and will risk SSO with a single male companion when they hesitate over a SI ante with all hands fair. ■ — — Religion at Saratoga.
