"Very Serious Collision Sunday
Between the London Mob
and the Polioe.
Tm Hnndred Rioters and Fifty Pdhe
Wounded—The Leader» Ar
rested and Sentenced*
LONDQK, Nov. *14.—Th« ace** at Tra
falgar square Sunday has not been
equaled since 1866, when the people, in
attesting their right to hold public meet
ings, destroyed the railings of Hyde park.
Early in the day 4,000 policeman took
possession of the square and its ap
proaches, prepared to hold it and prevent
the advertised meeting. Soon the differ
ent clubs, associations, etc., began to
arrive, after having marehed through
the various districts in which they be
longed. headed by bands of music and
flying flags, banners, streamers, etc.
These detachments were composed of
socialists, radicals, Irish societies and a
few trades associations, and as fast as
they came to the 6quare they were at
tacked and dispersed by the police, only
to reassemble and press forward. Later,
as the crowds became more dense, fierce
rights were started between the police
and the mob in Northumberland avenue,
Whitehall, Pall Mall and other adjacent
streets, in which the police were uni
formly the victors. One detachment,
preceded by a band, succeeded in
getting into the square and a bloody fight.
ensued, which ended finally in the repulse
of the intruders and the injury of many
persons. At 4:30 p. ni. the crowd num
bered easily 100,000 and it became so per
fectly manifest that the police were power
less to disperse them that the military
was summoned. In responsejto this call
a force of cavalry and infantry came upon
the ground, but they refrained from
charging upon the multitude, because the
people, awed by the presence of troops,
had begun to disperse, and by dusk com- -e.vrs
paratively few- remained. Two hundred mmtha
citizens and forty of the police were in- .—
jured in the succession of melees that
took place, and about fifty of the dis
turbers were arrested. Including Burns,
the socialist leader. Some of those in
jured were well enough to leave the hos
pital after their wounds had been dressed,
while others are so badly hurt that thaj
cannot tullv recover for weeks.
ALASKAN SEALERS.
The Controversy lletween Great BHMs
and the United State* Very Serious.
WASHINGTON, NOV.
15.—The
contro­
versy over the British sealers seized by
our government in Alaskan waters is
more serious than has perhaps been an
ticipated. It appears from a publication
of the Canadian government that Great
Britain made a very emphatic demand
for the release of the sealers and they
were released, and that the subjects of
Great Britain have put in quite a for
midable bill of damages againet the
United States, the merits of which
are still in controversy between the two
governments. Whether or not the ques
tions connected with the seizures of th*
sealers will be brought up in the fishery
conference which is soon to meet here, it
is evident that the British authorities in
tend to make the most of the Alaska in
cident in some way, and that a specific
case is to be urged for damages which
may assume as grave a character as the
questions now pending relative to the
fisheries on the Atlantic coast.

MINNESOTA CROPS.
Kstlmate on the Yield of Various Coarse
Grains—Large Increase in Quantity and
Quality of the Corn Crop—Oats Do Mot
Pan Oat Quite as Well to the Acre as
Iast Year—The Flax Crop.
ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 10.—The crop
of coarse grains raised in Minnesota this
year will exceed those of last, although
the increase is due more to increase of
acreage than in yield. The corn crop of
Minnesota, with the exception of a few
counties in the southern part of the
state, is much better than last year.
From reports it is estimated that the
average yield is 32 bnshels against 34%
bushels last year. The acreage as given
by the commissioner of statistics is 631,
363
against 557,608 last year. The total
yield last year was 17,589,000. The total
crop this year based on 32 bushels ner
acre on 631,363 acres is 20,213,606, ainu
creaee of about 2,600,000. The quality of
the crop is generally very good, most of
it having been too far advanced when the
first frost came to be seriously injured.
The crop of oats raised this year, al
though not quite as heavy an average as
last year,. is much larger in the total.
The area sown in 1887 was 1,278,000,
against 1,127,000 in 1886. The average yield
last year was nearly 32 bushels per acre.
This year about 31 bushels. Tfcis on an
acreage of 1,2*8,000 gives a total crop of
39,631,000,
against 35,875,000 last year.
The quality of the crop is not as good as
last year, as the heavy rains which came
just as the harvest was finished caused
considerable damage in some sections.
The acreage of flax this year is not as
large as a year ago. In many counties
the crop was damaged by the hot and wet
Weather in 1886, and farmers became dis
couragedjand put the ground to other
crops this year. The acreage in 1886 was
304,000 this year it is reported at 177,090.'
The yield will be about 1*200,QQfL.

A YOUNG NAl'OLKON.
"When is it to be?"
I asked John Strong this question be
cause he was my intimate friend. He had
told me all about his engagement with
Varina Vincent, the pretty scliotsl teacher.
Ho had opened his heart to me, and I felt
that I had the right to ask when the wed
ding would take place.
To my surprise Strong's handsome face
clouded and he paused for. a moment be
fore making a reply.
"To tell you the truth," lie said, "we
do not see our way clear to an early mar
riage. We are loth poor, but we are
young and can afford to wait."
I said nothing, but I could not help
thinking. In a smaH town like Cotton
ville Strong was regarded as a very pros
perous young man. Ho had saved a few
thousand dollars, and his salary was the
highest paid to any one in the place.
Only a few years before Strong had en
tered a country store as a clerk on starva
tion wages. He had advanced steadily
until he bad become the cashier of the
only bank iu Cottonville.
"I have done pretty weft," resumed
Strong, giving me a keen glance, "but I
do not know exactly how I stand. Some
of my investments may turn out well, or
they may ruin me. Besides, I have bor
rowed some money."
"That is what 1 caunot understand," I
interrupted. "You are prospering, and
jet you borrow money for speculations.
That is not wise."
Strong laughed, and threw his head
back proudly.
"Old fellow, you don know my plans,"
he answered "I have never made a fail
ure yet. I have the gift of seeing farther
ahead ttian most people, and I am going
to dtilize it. I borrow money, but I know
where to place it. I don't venture be-,
yotul my depth. Debt is a blessing under
some circumstances. The most successful
nations and individuals go the deepest in
debt."
It was useless to argue with Strong. In
our debating society he had always come
off victor in every discussion. Self poised,
well equipped and magnetic, there were
few men, or women either, that he could
not win over to his side.
"Varina understands me," he said.
"She is willing to wait. She knows that
it is best for us both.''
"Well, my young Napoleon," I re
marked, "I hope that one of your brill
iant, speculative campaigns will satisfy
your ambition, and that you will then
settle down and marry and take life as
you find it. Only a few men find the
short cuts to fame and fortune, and it is
dangerous to seek them."
Everybody in Cottonville called Strong
the young Napoleon of business. His
brilliancy, his rapid intuition, his imperi
ous ways, and tiie fact that his classic
features resembled somewhat these of the
great Corsican, had fixed the name on
him when he was in his teens. And he
liked it. All men like to tbink that they
resemble heroes and conquerors.
II.
"Twenty thousand dollars profit in cot
ton futures!"
It was a big thing for Cottonville. But
the young Napoleon took it quietly. He
was not surprised, he said to his inquiring
friends. Ho had felt certain that he would
make n ten strike.
"I at" off for NewfYork," said Strong,
the nei h'day after tlje intelligence of hial
good fi*tune had reached him. "Goodby,
old fellow."
"But when are yon coming baak?" I
asked, holding him by the hand.
"Oh, I don't know. I can't very well
say at present."
"There is Varina!" I exclaimed. "Ah,
I see. After your return there will be a
wedding."
"Don't bother me with that subject
now," snapped my friend "my head is
full of important business matters, and I
must go to New York. There is no way
out of it. It is all right with Varina. Of
course I am coming home as soon as I
possibly can, but I have an opportunity
of getting on the inside in Wall street,
and I must go."
'Getting oil the inside?"
"Yes, I said so. But you know nothing
about speculation and care less. I mean
just this: I have some friends there who
will put me up to something that will pay
better than any of my past ventures."
"My dear friend," I urged, "why noi
let well alone? With your present start
you will soon be the richest man in Cot
tonville."
"In Cottonville!" he sneered. "There,
never mind that. I like the town and I
am coming back. Goodby."
People shook their heads at first. In a
few weeks their suspicions were confirmed.
Strong had plunged into the very vortex
of the speculative maelstrom in Wall
street, and it was not long before we
heard that he had made another lucky hit.
"Strong is a phenomenal genius in his
way." said Banker Jones to me one day.
"He reads human nature at a glance, and
can adapt himself to any class of men. I
have no doubt that he is as much at home
among the New York capitalists as if he
had been one of them always. And he
will impress them, too, just as he im
pressed people here."
I ventured to express a doubt.
"You arc mistaken," said Jones.
"Have you never noticed a few rare men
who seem to have nothing in common
with the people around them—men who,
from their birth, are cosmopolitan by na
ture, with nothing provincial about them?
Strong is such a map. A stranger could
not tell from his appearance and con
versation what part of the country he is
identified with. In New York, San Fran
cisco or New Orleans he would be at
home. It is only here, where he-was born,
that -lie appears to be altogether different
from his follows."
poor girl seemed to bo in a dazed state,
0he saw something in her lover that no
jjne elso saw, a coldness that she alone
fiouhl detect.
After his departure we all began won
dering when the marriage would take
place. I had said nothing to Strong about
it, and lie had not mentioned it to me.
Only once luid he said anything that re
motely referred to it.
"You people call me a rich man," he
•aid, "and I suppose I am, but you do not
Jtnow how complicated my business is.
I am liable any night to go home a million
or two richer or a wretched pauper. For
Clod's sako let speculation alone!"
I thought of Strong's words often dur
ing the next year. From time to time we
keard of his success. Everything that he
touched seemed to turn to gold. Even in
Kew York men spoke of hijuaj# the young
Napoleon,
-.
It was an awful crasM, and It oarried
some of the proudest firms in the great
city down with it.
In our little village we could hardly re
alize it. Surely Strong had been prudent
enough to save something out of the
wreck.
Our hope proved to be without founda
tion. Not only had Strong's cutire fortune
been swept away, but he would have to
begin the world again owing fully a mil*
lion dollars.
The brave fellow bore up for a few days.
His conduct was so manly that there was
some talk of setting him upon his feet
again, and it was predicted that he would
retrieve his losses and make another for
tune.
But the strain was too much. Finally
he staggered to his bed, and when he arose
from it, long weeks afterwards, his attack
of brain fever had dune its worst.
"He is a mental wreck," said Banker
Jones, who had just returned from New
York.
"Is there no hope?"
"None whatever. He will never regain
his sense?. He may improve physically,
but his mind is gone forever."
"Wo must do something for him," I
said.
"Something has been done," replied
Jones with very moist eyes. "Varina"
"What has she done?"
"That, noble woman, sir, went on to
New York, with her uncle. They took
pcxjr Strong and placed him in a private
asylum, where he will receive every care
and attention. You know that Varina
lia i given up her school and is living with
her uncle, who is going to make her his
lieiress. Well, those two are going to
foot the bills and see to it that Strong is
taken care of as long as he lives."
whi
It was years afterward when I saw
Strong for the first time since his mfcfor
tune.
Business had called me to New York,
raul on the second day after my arrival I
visited the asylum, "a short distance from
the city.
At first I thought that Strong had com
pletely recovered, ho was looking so well,
but his tivlk undeceived me.
"And how is Cottonville?" he asked.
"Slow old place, too slow, no progress,
nothing to keep a man of ability there.
Why don't you come here? I have some
big schemes on foot, and possibly I'll let
you in."
I was glad to see that ho recognized me,
audI humored his rambling talk for an
hour.
"J saw Variift before I left," I said.
"Varina! Oh, little Varina Vincent.
Do you know I once thought of marrying
her, but. I saw that it wouldn't do. Good
girl, but no force of character, you know.
Why, they call me the young Napoleon of
finance. Now, how would such a wife
have suited me? Well, I managed it so
as not to hurt her feelings. I let the en
gagement run along, and at last she of
fered to release me. I accused her of not
having faith in me, and got in a high
dudgeon and accepted my freedom. Good,
wasn't it?"
It was too much for me. I rose to go.
Strong accompanied me to the door, and
chatted about his imaginary speculations.
"Stay!" he cried, as I was leaving.
He handed me a little flower from the
profusion that decked hi3 table.
"Give that to Varina," he^aid.
I took it and rushed off, unable to
speak.
Of course I pressed that flower, and
took the utmost care of it until I reached
Cottonville.
When I gave it to Varina, and told her
who sent it, the poor thing cried over it
until I thought her heart would break.

An Absent Blinded Person.
One of the most absent minded of men
lived and died, not long ago, in a town not
far from Concord. He was a most worthy
minister of the Gospel, and conducted the
greater part of one long midsummer ser
vice with one pair of heavy spectacles on
his nose and another canted high up on
his massive forehead.
He once called on a lady parishioner
and invited her with characteristic polite
ness to go to ride. She accepted gladly
and "fixed up," only to find with the
dominie when they reached the door that
he had made his call on horseback, and
that his chaise was at his home a half
dozen miles away.—Concord Monitor.

Buffalo Bill's Royal Patram.
I inquired about the Prince of Wales
and the queen, and how they happened to
take so cordially to the Wild West. Said
Cody: "The prince is a very democratic
sort of man. The first time he spoke to
me he called me Bill, and asked me if I
had ever held four kings before. I told
him I had often held four kings, but this
time I had the Prince of Wales, and that
made the royal flush. His wife, if possible,
is more democratic than he is. She is a
remarkably good woman, and perfectly
unaffected."
She expressed a great desire to ride-in
I the stage coach. It was impromptu, and
we tried in vain to get the Indians to un
derstand that they must not get too close
with the coach to ffk. They got an idea
that somebody important was inside, and
i that therefore they must fire a little worse
1
Banker Jones was something of a
philosopher and I had to yield to him.
I saw Varina every day. Sometimes I
was at the postofflce when she called for
her mail, and I was always well pleased
to see her bend her pretty head and hurry
off with a white envelope bearing the New
York postmark, and addressed in the
handwriting so well known to me.
It was nearly a year before Strong re
turned, and then it was only on a flying
visit. A special car bearing some of the
biggest railway magnates In the country
passed through. Strong was with the party,
but he left it, and spent half a day at his
old homo. He was with Varina most of
the time and-I saw him only a moment.
"No changes, I see," said he in a curt
businesslike way, "not a house palijted,
and not a hammer has been heard siiMfe I
left. Everything is just the same."
"Varina, too?" I suggested.
"Yes, Varina, too," be replied. "Poor
little thing. Do you know thftf. she lacks
forcc of character?"
"I think nothing of the kind," I an
swered shortly. 'she certainly has a great
deal of patience under trying circum
stances, and there is dw&S^force of char
acter iu that."
Strong's eyes fell, and he gave me a
parting clasp of the hand. He had to re
join the railway kings at their next stop?
ping place. It was hard to tear himself
away, but it could not be helped.
His visit could not have been very sat
isfactory to Vajrina, for from that time
saw a change in her. Her face began to
have a weary, sad look, and she plodded
on with her school work, withdrawing
herself almost entirely from society. She
still received letters from New York, but
they were less frequent than formerly.
When Strong paid his next visit to Cot
tonville, the following ye&r, he was a
millionaire. This time he remained several
days, and was at his best. Everybody re
marked that prosperity had hot spoiled
him. He was devoted to Varipa, but the

than ordinarily. We went through'a good
deal of trouble here for fear somebody or
other might get hurt through the flashing
of powder or wads or something. The
i Princess of Wales got out with a face per
fectly white, and she said with her broken
accent: "Now I am sure I have been to
I war! I have been under fire, I know!"
Colonel Cody said that the queen was a
very motherly, domestic sort of woman,
whose inquiries were almost entirely ad
dressed to the health of the people in the
show. She wanted to know how the In
dians got along if they had any disease,
and were comfortable. "She seemed to
me," said Cody, "to be a philanthropic,
kindly woman."—"Gath" in Cincinnati
Enquirer.
A Itemarkable Accident.
"Talking about railroad accidents," re
marked an old railroad man in conversa
tion about the Chatsworth horror, "the
most remarkable one I ever knew of—and
I've been running on the road now for
nearly thirty years—was in Kansas on
the Kansas Pacific, not far from Fort
Wallace, where a train of cars, including
the engine, were blown into the bed of a
dry creek and never found. That is, the
engine and some of the cars never were.
The engineer and fireman were both lost.
Tha train was a freight, and that's, why
there were no passengers to be killed. At
the time of the Tay bridge disaster in
Scotland the train, which was blown from
the bridge or went through the bridge,
whichever it wa8, was never found be
cause the water and mud were deep and
swallowed up the engine, while the
coaches probably went out to sea with the
tide. But there was no tide in that Kan
sas dry branch. The quicksand just swal
lowed everything."—Chicago Tribute.
Fatal Admission.
The San Francisco Bulletin thinks Yan
Phou Lee makes a fatal admission when
he says that the Chinese immigrants rely
mainly upon the Chinese companies for
aid, which really amounts to assisted im
migration and contract labor.
Mrs. Willis, president of the Wisconsin
Woman Suffrage association, wan pre
vented from voting at a municipal elec
tion at Kacine last spring, and brought
suit in consequence to test the validity of
a state law which empowers womefl to
vote upon school matters. The judge
before whom the case was tried has de
cided that the law is constitutional atul
that Mrs. Willis was entitled to vote.
The matter will be carried to the Supreme
court of the state.
The Northern Pacific has just closed a
contract for the sale of $130,000 acres of
timber land in Minnesota, lying alonf
their line of road between range 26 and
Lake Superior.
Runh Russell, the 8-year-old son of
Taylor Russell, has been around Big
Stone City with a shotgun, threatening
to shoot little children. 'He brought
things to a climax when he told little
Jessie Hallock he wonld shoot her if she
did not go home. The little girl was too
much frightened to run, and he flred the
pin, shooting her in the face, disfiguring
her for life. The gun was loaded with
sand, otherwise the shot would have
Droved fatal.

Be Sure
To ask for Ayer's Sarsaparllla, if yo*
are in need of a Blood-purifier—tha
only certain and reliable remedy for
pimples, blotches, and all other erup
tions of the skin. As an alterative,
Ayer's Sarsaparilla,*
after a trial of nearly half a century, ia
universally conceded to be the best ever
discovered. It is agreeable to the taste,
and, being highly concentrated, only
small doses are needed.
An old lady of eighty, Mrs. Mary C.
Ames, of Rockport, Me., after forty years
of suffering from a humor in the blood,
manifesting itself in Erysipelas and oth
er distressing eruptions on the skin, at
last began the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla,
and, after taking ten bottles, she is now,
she says, "as smooth and fair as ever."
Frank Jones, 052 Eighth ave., New
York, writes I suffered from impuri
ty of the blood, which showed itself in
troublesome eruptions and mattery
pimples on my face, neck, etc. Ayer'»
Sarsanarilla effected a complete cure.
I hau previously tried many reputed
blood-purifiers without benefit."
