TEMPLARS ON PARADE. Boston Streets Made the Scene of , . a Glittering Pageant. There Were 25,000 in Line The March Viewed by 750,000 People Mlssour and Kansas Knights Have Prominent Places. , Boston, Ausr. 28. Three-quarters of a million people saw the parade of over 25,000 Knights Templars yesterday and with one accord pronounced it the grandest pageant ever witnessed in this city. During" the early hours it was cloudy, but by 11 o'clock the sun was shining1 again. Every where within a radius of 20 miles of the state house the day was practically a holiday. Most of the factories in nearby cities were closed and the operatives helped to swell the crowds which watched the procession. All of the appointments were well cig-h perfect. Shortly before the pa rade platoons of officers cleared every street through which the knights were to pass and roped them off, until the last division passed no traffic of any kind was allowed on those thoroughfares. The lines of parade were formed in thirteen divisions in a column of double sections. At 9 o'clock the com mand eries of the first division began to gather on the south side of Common wealth avenue near Berkley street and at about the same hour the other divi sions began to take up their positions in the avenues of the Back Bay dis trict. All was in readiness shortly after 10 o'clock and at 10:55 o'clock the long line was in motion. As the great body of knights moved down Commonwealth avenue the spec tacle was an inspiring one. The music of 100 bands and the applause of thou sands of people filled the air; the black cloth of the uniforms, the waving of plumes and the silver and gold em blems, conspicuous in the templar uni form, combined to present a.scene that was pleasing and impressive. Right Eminent Sir Simon Marshall led the Twelfth division, and Eminent Sir James II. Frame was chief of staff, as sisted by nine aides. St. Louis had the right of line in this division, fol lowed by fourteen Missouri command eries and knights from Iowa, Minne sota and Alabama. The thirteenth division was led by Right Eminent Henry G. Jordan, of Rhode Island commanderies, the chief of staff being Eminent Sir Henry S. Rowe, assisted by eleven aids. The right of line was given to Topeka No. fl. of Topeka, Kan. Besides other Kansas commanderies there were bodies from Baltimore, Nebraska, West Virginia, Colorado, South Da kota, North Carolina, Montana and Wyoming. The twelfth and thirteenth divisions were greeted by the tireless spectators with as much enthusiasm as the first delegation. The states of Missouri, with St. Louis commandery at its head, Iowa and Minnesota all made brilliant displays and vied with each other in the variety of their marching move xnents and music Louisiana and Ala bama's grand commandery was prominent in the twelfth di vision. The day was intensely hot. Many women and children were overcome in the dense throngs, and scores of knights who had started on the 44 mile tramp dropped out of the line. The ambulances from the police stations and the emergency hospitals were busy all the time. The most serious accident reported was to Miss Lillian Dudley, 1G years old, who was crushed in the crowd at the corner of Hanover and Washington streets, ller spine was seriously injured. A reception was given in the evening when Mayor Curtis in a neat address welcomed the Knights to Boston, fol lowed by Gov. Greenhalge, who deliv ered an address of welcome in behalf of the state. Most Eminent Sir Hugh McCurdy responded in behalf of the Knights Templar. IN SESSION. When the grand commandery opened Grand Commander McCurdy in his address, referred in well rounded periods to the prosperity of the Tem plars and complimented Boston. Then he paid tributes to departed members, beginning with the late grand sword bearer, George Cooper Connor, who died at Chattanooga, Tenn., and including the late past grand captain- general, James Sorley, Grand Recorder William Bryan Isaacs and ninety-five other templars of note in the various states, including J. II. Philbrick,Dwight Byington, G. W. Port, E. D. Hillyer, J II. Brown and F. W. Lanyon, of Kan sas; C W. Eaton, of Iowa, and E. A. Allen, of Nebraska. A Victory for Quay. H arrisburg, Pa., Aug. 28.

Washington, Aug. 2S. From all accounts the financial affairs of the library of congress are in a fearfully muddled condition. Mr. Spofford, the librarian, has already disgorged S24, 600, and it is understood that the ac eounting officers of the treasury are of the opinion that the shortage as a whole will amount to over S35,000. Twelfth Juror Still Wautlnr. Sax FiiAXCisco, Aug. 28. After spending th day in a fruitless attempt to secure the twelfth juror to try Dur nt, Judge Murphy ordered the sheriff to draw from the county a special venire of seventy-five jurors. , DECREASE IN IMMIGRATION. The Strict Inspection 'ow Carried on Re sult in Excluding Many Objectionable Classes. Washington, Aug-. 23. From the an nual report of the commissioner of im migration for year ended June 30 last, it appears that the number of aliens brought to this country, exclusive of tourists, during that year was 258,536, of whom 2,419 were debarred from landing under the immigration laws, and returned to their European homes. Of those thus debarred, 1,725 were excluded upon the ground that they were liable to become a public charge and 694 on the ground that they had come here under con tracts to perform labor, made prior to their leaving home. It is singular that the immigration bureau has not undertaken to prosecute any of the parties in this country with whom these alleged contracts with 694 aliens were made. While the law prescribed that aliens coming under contract shall be returned at the expense of the steamship company which - brings them, it also provides that parties in this country who enter into contracts with aliens shall, upon conviction, be punished by fine. The large decrease in immigration during the past four years is due to business dullness, but it may be as sumed that a. large part of the de crease is due to the enforcement of the immigration laws. In 1882 the alien immigrants numbered 581,827. 'The immigration law was enacted March 3, 1891, but its enforcement was not so strict and thorough as now. In 1893 the alien immigrants numbered 440,783. In 1894 there were but 288,020, and for the year ended last June 258.536. It is generally admitted that the strict in spection now carried on by agents of steamship companies in foreign coun tries and by officers of the immigra tion bureau has resulted in excluding many of the objectionable classes for merly admitted in large numbers, and to that extent the quality of the immi gration has been vastly improved. EARTHQUAKE EVERY DAY. Natives in a Mexican Southern Town Great ly Alarmed. City of Mexico, Aug. 28. Scientists are greatly interested in phenomena occurring at the town of Pinotep, state of Oaxaca, where, since November 2 of last year, not a day has passed without an earthquake shock. People have abandoned their stone houses and are living in huts made of wood and matting. Great alarm Drevails. for each daily shock is preceded by ominous roarings under the sea, which is only 12 miles distant. There is observable at various points in southern Mexico much seismic activity, and the subterranean roaring at Tehuacan, state of Puebla, and re curring shocks of earthquake make it seem probable that another volcano is forming. STRICKEN WITH TERROR. Armenians in Fear of the Vengeance of the Turkish Soldiers. , Constantinople, Aug. 28. Advices received here from Erzinghiam say that great terror prevails among the Arme nians there, owing to the attitude of the Turkish authorities. The latter, in consequence of an attack which was recently made by brigands upon a Turkish colonel, during which a member of his escort was killed, are believed to be taking steps which will have most serious consequences. The Armenians are accused of being the authors of the attack on the colonel and it is alleged that a large force of Turkish troops has been retaliating by attacking the villages and monasteries of the vicinity, and engaging in other acts of violence. DIXON FAVORED. The Black Boy Given the Best of It in the Decision. Boston, Aug. 28. George Dixon, the colored lightweight boxer of Boston, was given the decision yesterday even ing over Johnny Griffin, the "Brain tree Lad," at the end of a twenty-five round match, held under the auspices of the Farragut club, in the Newton street armorv. The decision was a surprise to a majority of the 3,000 peo pie present, it having been gen erally understood that there was to be no decision if both men were on their feet at the end of the twenty fifth round, unless, perhaps, there should be a decided difference in the condition of the boxers. HOLMES' MISSING VICTIM. Remains of Murdered Howard Pietzel Are Found in Indianapolis. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 28. In dianapolis will claim the right to try II. H.

This claim will be based upon thg horrible developments of yes terday, which include the finding of the charred remains of 9-year-old Howard Pietzel and evidence which before any jury in the country would convict II.

Denvek, Col., Aug. 23- Hellmuth P. Loescher was the signature written by the ex-engineer of the Gumry hotel when lodged in jail here yesterday. He says he is 22 years old, and insists that somebody else (probably Petei Gumry) and not he, caused the explo sion by which twenty-two lives were sacrificed. The warrant on which Loescher is held charges him with murder. Mr. Ransom Reappointed. Washington, Aug. 28. The president has reappointed ex-Senator Matt W. Ransom.of North Carolina, to be United States minister to Mexico. The com mission is dated August 24. This ends a legal complication by which Mr. Ran som was declared ineligible to fill the office to which he had been appointed prior to the expiration of his term as United States senator. 1'erished in a Convent. Rome, Aug. 28. The convent oi Riordavibo has been partially de stroyed by fire. Eight men perished and four others were severely injured. JUST THAT KIND OF A BOY, Circus People Steal the Brightest Children and She Knew They Had Dave. The boy was lost at the circus. At least his mother said he was and he ought to know. Moreover, every one in the neighborhood knew it, too, for she was proclaiming the fact of his disappearance in every grocery and on every corner, and to every other mother that she knew. "He went to the circus with me and the circus has gone out of town and he has been taken with it. I know. Those men are always on the lookout for bright children and Dave is just the kind of boy they would naturally jump at," said she, with an air of con viction. "What " does the boy look like?" asked a man in a sunburned suit, who had plenty of time on his hands. "Is he red-headed, with twisted eyes and plenty of freckles on his nose? Does he look as if he were never washed, and are his stockings in holes, and has his coat been made up of some one else's old one, and does he walk splay footed like a rheumatic turtle, and is he kind of half-witted?" The man in the sunburned suit was wise enough to edge away as he asked these questions, and when he finally escaped he muttered: "That's all you get for trying to help a woman. She just gets mad. It might have been her boy, even if it wasn't." The mother spent two hours chasing up and down streets and asking about her boy and, at last, dead tired, she walked home, heavy-hearted and wretched. When she got indoors her husband was enjoying his supper and the boy was facing him at the table, with a piled-up plate and satisfaction in every feature, for the circus had sharpened his appetite. As she came in the husband had asked: "Where is your mother?" and the boy was replying with his mouth full of meat-pie: "Guess she's lost. Shouldn't wonder if some of those cir 3us men had stolen her." And then the mother told the boy that if he ever left her side when she took him to the circus again it would be the last time. N. Y. Press. THE DRUG CLEKK'S ST0EY He Talks of Headaches and Nervous ness and Gives a Cure fop Both. From the Evening News, Newark, N. J. It was the drug clei'k's turn to tell a story of one of his experiences, and the reporter, expecting something good, as usual, settled himself comfortably in a chair, prepared to give his undivided attention to the speaker. The latter was Henry Maier, who resides with his parents on Aqueduct Street, New ark, N. J., and who hands out medicine over the counter of Dr. Andrew F. Burkhardt's drug store at 271 Orange Street, this city. "Perhaps I can do nothing better," he be ?an, "than to tell you the secret of my good health. It is a story that I have told to many recently, and as it resulted in good in each case, it may be worth your while to listen to it. To begin with, I was not al ways strong and robust, as I am now. Long hours of work and hard study had left me in a wretched condition. Frightful, linger ing headaches found me a ready victim, and it times I was so nervous that the dropping ot a pin would cause me to give a violent start, and then I would be seized with a fit 3f trembling that was, to put it mildly, ex ceedingly bothersome. Well, I began to loctor myself. Now I flatter myself that I know something of medicine; but with all my knowledge, I could find nothing that would cure those terrible headaches or put an end to my extreme nervousness. When I picked up a "bottle my hand would shake as though I had the chills, and if it was a pow ler that I was handling I stood a good ;hance of sprinkling it all over these black trousers. Things went from bad to worse, and I soon realized that a man of my phys ical condition had better not attempt to mix any medicine. " 'Try a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,' said Dr. Burkhardt one day; and as you know the doctor's advice is always worth following, I got the Pink Pills and began to tako them. Aladdin's lamp never performed the wonders of these pills. Would you be lieve it! Before I had taken the contents of one box my headache began to give me a day off occasionally, and soon it left me en tirely. How about my nervousness? Well, the pills put an end to that with almost startling abruptness. You see I knew enough about the business to appreciate the importance of following the prescribing physician's directions, and by paying strict attention to those given by Dr. Williams with each bpx of his Pink Pills, I was soon another fellow. Look at me now ! A pic ture of health, eh ? Well, that is what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do for a man, or a woman, either. See, I can hold this glass ef water out now without spilling a drop, but I couldn't do that two months ago and "What is it, ma'm?" he asked as a neatly dressed, woman came up to the counter. "A box of Dr. Williams' Fink Pills." "Yes, ma'm, fifty cents, please. Thank you." "TheseWink Pills are great things," said Mr. Maier as he turned to the reporter again, and the latter, after all he had heard, thought so too. .... Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. Thev are for sale by all druggists, or mav be had by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine Company. Schenectady, N. Y., f oi 50c. per box, or six boxes for $2.50. A Problem Confrouts Him. "Mamma, why can't I have all the coffee I want?" "Because it isn't good for you, Wil lie." "Does the Lord know it isnt good for me?" ' "I have no doubt He does."

The number of troops actually en listed in the confederate service dur ing the civil war is not exactly known, but, from first to last, it is believed that about 600,000 men were mustered for the confederate service, WESTERN KANSAS. Tle Secretary of the State Hoard of Agri culture Has a Good Word (or That Sec tion. Topeka, Kan., Aug. 23. Secretary Coburn, in speaking of western Kan sas and its future prospects, gives the following as his views: There was never before such a favorable time for the ambitious, Industrious, willing worker, native or f oreign. to take up bis abode in that region and there begin carving out for himself a home, a competence and an identity, as presents itself in this year 1895. Not that they would all become rich; that is impossi ble in any country, but the sum of the com forts and independence they could acquire would be so much greater than many of them know in their present situations as to make a contrast most striking. Some of my reasons for this belief are these: It is thoroughly demonstrated that western Kansas pjssesses a climate, taking the whole year through, nowhere surpassed for healthf ul ness: it is equally well demonstrated that its soil under favorable conditions of moisture is productive to a limit as yet unmeasured. II there are seasons when that fractional part of the rainfall which is utilized proves insufficient for maturing crop-j it is pretty well established that there is an ample underground supply available for the using which will go far toward insuring crops every year such too as the most noted agricultural states elsewhere are not often able to boast of. Further; choice land there, without stump, stone, hill ot ravine.- every acre fitted by nature for a garden, can be bought at a lower price and on easier payments now than ever again, and ad jacent to land no better that this year will pro duce crops on one acre sufficient to purchase five and even ten equal acres. However, I think that irrigation, with its large possibilities, is to be secondary in im portance to deep tillage by thoroughly loosen ing and disintegrating the compacted under soil to the depth of fifteen or twenty inches: in other words subsoiling, whereby the rainfall will be safely stored in its proper reservoir, the bosom of mother earth, available later for drafts at times when most needed, instead of running to waste and working devastation by floods. One encouraging fact is that our people are studying as never before the conditions con fronting them, the cause of past failures and the requirements for future success. This de termination to better understand the obstacles to be avoided or overcome, to utilize the ele ments at hand and to work out their own pros perity on their individual farms, rather than wait for legislation and appropriations to make them prosperous, is the best possible augury of the triumphs they will yet achieve. The superb crop conditions now existing will have great influence in restoring confidence, but if the plentiful rains of the present season cause our people to lessen their efforts in as certaining and preparing to use all possible water supply and to be careless in planting crops' not well adapted to their altitudes or to profitable consumption or sale when produced a great mistake will be made and progress given a serious check. Those who hold the fort will always be glad they did so, if they profit by past experiences. Intensive farming (better and less, rather than more), judicious selection of crops to plant, subsoiling, harvesting the rain waters, irriga tion and the rearing of well-bred farm animals will afford "a way out" infinitely plainer and more reliable than any likely to come ready made and bearing a legislative trade mark from either Washington or Topeka. SILVER REPUBLICANS. They Form a Bimetallic League with Head quarters at Topeka. Topeka, Kan., Ausf. 22. The State Republican Bimetallic league is now fully organized with headquarters in this city. P. H. Coney, of Topeka, is president; W. II. Ilornaday, of Tope ka, secretary, and C. V. Eskridge, of Emporia, treasurer, and an executive committee of thirteen members, composed of well known republic ans in different portions of the state. The league has recently issued an address to Kansas republic ans favorable to the free coinage of sil ver, to immediately organize in every district of the state. The secretary announces that advices received at his office are to the "effect that a fair and honest expression would show that at least four-fifths of the rank and file of the party is against the single gold standard. It is, therefore, of para mount importance that this large ele ment of the republican party should immediately organize and get into closer relationship." Circulars are also sent out giving full instructions for the formation of such leagues, and a closer organization of republicans who favor free coinage, for "in unity there is strength." DEFAULTED SCHOOL BONDS. State Treasurer Atherton, of Kansas, Calls for l'rompt Legal Action. Topeka, Kan., Aug. 22.

Cnrlons Calabrlan Custom Which May Now and Again Be Observed In New York. In the Italian quarter I found myself the other day in a home which had been darkened by a double misfortune. A little Italian boy had fallen from a fire escape to the street and been in stantly killed. His widowed mother, when she came upon the body of her son, went mad with grief and at tempted to take her own life. She was taken to the hospital. The boy's body lay upon a table and a blazing candelabrum stood at its head. At the side the boy's foster father and his wife knelt in prayer. Seated about the room was a group of women chanting an Italian death wail. One of the women raised her face and her quavering voice filled the room: "Happiness has departed from us f or everl" And the others droned the refrain: "Forever!" "He will never be absent from our thoughts!" "Never from our thoughts!" And so on, strophe and antistrophe, the chief wailer leading and the chorus echoing the dismal refrain. It was a" sight and a sound to move even the tardy sensibilities of a reporter. Such scenes are not uncommon in the Italian quarter, though they seldom come under the eye of visitors. The professional mourner is an institution in some of the provinces of southern Italy. She the office belongs entirely to the softer sex is analogous to the Irish "keener," but with the difference that her wail is more musical than weird, whereas the "keener" is weird, piercing almost anything but musical. The Italian wailers they are called "prefiche" in their own tongue are doubtless descendants of the profession al mourners of ancient Rome. They are most common and their office is most clearly defined in the provinces of Abruzzi and Calabria, and in Sicily. There they are regularly retained and rewarded with a fee. In other pro vinces a relative of the afflicted family may assume the office and lead the chorus, or the function may be of a wholly miscellaneous character, all the mourners joining in a song of woe. N. Y. Herald. To Clean Oiled Woodwork. Few things clean varnished or oiled woodwork in a house better than ker osene rubbed in . vigorously with a flannel cloth. Crude petroleum and linseed oil in the proportion of one third of the petroleum to two-thirds of the oil are also good for polishing and cleaning such woodwork as well as hard wood furniture. If very much soiled it is well to wipe both wood work and furniture with a flannel cloth wrung out of warm water; wipe dry quickly and use the oil. If the re sult is to be a success in any cleaning or polishing process the rubbing must be with the grain of the wood and the application must be so thoroughly rubbed in the wood that it will not re main a greasy, sticky substance on the surface ready to imprison every par ticle of dust that settles on it.
