This raise is ail expected by the Waukeebans, hnd unless we are so complimented we will never, never, never entertain the four hundred Editors again. And now, sinee this pleasant fcvenC is over, the next anticipated one will be the garden party wbioh will take piece ton Friday evening in the Fountain House Hark, where there will be oleotric illuminations that wiil make the moon look abashed und where music will send out her IntoxioaU ina atrains for the giddy waits and the srace-( ful quadrille.

Many guests from tbe Garden land Cream Cities will be in attendance. The first full dress ball of the season o-l eurred on Saturday evening at the Spring City Hotel and was well attended by tbe many guests of the house, as well as guests from outer hotels. Tbe Aurora city band furnished delightful musio for the occasion, snd all who participated in the dancing were loth to leave when the hour of IS announced it Sunday morning. As the elements interfered witb the lawn fete to be given at tbe home of Mrs. H.

M. Horning last week, the pleasant event was deferred until Thursday evening, at which time much enjoyment la anticipated. A most delightful reception was tendered the Bev. H. P.

Hsylett, pastor of the M. E. Church, by the members of his congregation on Thursday evening in the church parlors. Over two hundred friends and ad mirers of Uiia talented divine assembled on this occasion to bid him weloome home from bis recent sojourn abroad. STRANOBBS WTXHnl OtJB OARS ean not complain of the lack of music or entertainment, as four daily concerts are given at the springs, aside from the evening- entertainments.

Tbe outlook is promising for some very interesting denouements this summer where seminary young people congregate, and we quiet folk are wondering what will be the sensation of the season this year. A new feature baa boen added to the snmmer evening's entertainments, it being the sacred concerts given on bunday evenings at Silurian Spring Park by Professor Thorbahns orchestra.

Tbs Bev. H. Urooka' Reuona tot Not Aettagwltsi the rroblbltlonUts. The Bev. H.

M. Brooks, of Paris. 111., acted for several years with the Prohibition party. Beoently he withdrew. In response to a loiter of inquiry front the Paris Mr.

Brooks wrote: I am In receipt of your letter asking my reasons for leaving the Prohibition party, and, in reply, will say that I am satisfied that the Prohibition party will never succeed so long as the past and preeeni methods of work are emuloved. The party ean not control the already ex- isung sentiment against tne saioon. 8. Ths party'a methods are to-day creating more sentiment against prohibition than against the saloon bv trying to prove that the Democratic party is mean as the devil and that ths Republican party is mean as the Democ ratio party, and furthermore, that ths saloon-keeper is just as good aa any man who votes a Republican or "Democratic ticket. Such methods will kill the highest and holiest cause on earth, the church of Jesus Christ not excepted.

By magnifying tbe religions side of the queetion to the disparagement of the legal side, we bsve given the impression that the non-believer is not in ths fight, Ths very unwise cry of the-' par It, fcW want men to vote as they pray," has given the impression that none are responsible for the saloon save those who pray. A better motto would be, "We want men to vote and work against the saloon, wbethsr tbsv pray at ali." So Ions we pit ths praying part of our country against the non-praying part we are going to reap laiinre, lor tne very odvious reason thai there are more voters who do not pray than those wno qo. I am satisfied that no political party can successfully champion this question at present for the reason that there is not enough sentiment in any party to carry into enecv Ana so long as ws make it a political question, ws naturally divide tbe already existing sentiment against the saloon. It is therefore patent to my mina. that oar nope is to orgauue a move ment in all tbe parties that will give a basis of action to all who are opposed to the trsffio.

Of ons thing ws may be assured, and that is: Bo soon as we get sufficient sentiment on this question and harmonise it. all necessary laws will come. And should they come sooner they will prove a failure. Get the people right and law-makers must get right or gel out. It should therefore be our business to create sentiment againat our legalised liquor train ana in try to prove wiiicn is tne meaner, tbe Democratic or Republican party, ft.

Again it is obvious to my mind that the Prohibition party ean not baud up a majority on the one ides, prohibition, so long as there are reform questions that have aa great or greater hold on tbe minds ot the American people than tbe prohibition question. o. Ana it is worse than touy tor us rro- bibition party to attempt a settlement, along with the liquor queetion, of other questions which the greater parties of our oouuuy nave tried and failed to settle for the past fifty ytara. The prohibition question la the only one Deiore tne people to-aay that is purely people's question and it should therefore be championed by the people. The tariff ques tion la a local question ana so are all others to-dav sare the liauor aueetion.

My method of work hereafter will be along independent lines in all parties. My effort will be: To create sentiment against tbe saloon and not againat political parties. 8. To organise anti-lioonse societies witb the view of having the qui tion submitted to a vote of the people in tbe State at an especial election stripped of all other questions. 8.

If the preeent Legislature will not give us such privilege we will elect one that will. My confidence is in the people, the common oeo- pleu that olass who beard tbe Savior gladly and followed Him in asch crowds that they "trodc one upon anotoer." I am not dogmatic on this aueetion. but do believe that the Prohibition party will fail so lontr as the present methods of work snt em ployed. Permit me to eay, in conclusion, that the great majority of prohibitionists are honest snd in good faith, but a great many of our leaders are, my opinion prohibmonists for "revenue only." Tbeee, sir, ars some ot the reasons for my withdrawal irom ths rroniutton party. Kindly, H.

MoGeah and B. L. horth, Jr. CHICAGO, WEDNESDAY ROUNDING UP THE SICK. Secretary Foster' Begins ft-Weeding out Process la the Treasury.

Especial Attention to Be Given to Weather Predictions for Farmers. A Tin-plate Point Having Direct Bearing on the UcKlnley OUR WASHINGTON SPECIAL, Washoto, July 1A Spteial TtUarmm. Secretary Foster is engaged in what he sal -ronnaing up his aepartmenk it Is a Dro wse which will be very interesting to soma Treasury officials and clerks. He is endeav oring to have a muster of ths forces under bis supervision, and to that end is calling all sick leaves. Tinder a law passed by a reoent Congress, clerks can ob'ain a leave of absence upon the certificate of some physician in good standing that they are ill, and receive two- third's pay.

It has been discovered in the course of this "rounding up process that some olerks have long been absent on sick leave. It is said that Secretary Foster hss discovered that there is one chief of a division who has been absent nearly two years draw ing two-third's pay, and ha is personally un known to his clerks. Meanwhile in many of eases substitute olerks are doing tbe work of these clerks for one-third par. The result of this inquiry will undoubtedly be a very liberal weeding out of this siok leave list, and there will either be a good many suddsn recoveries or some immediate resignations. Professor Harrington, the new chief of the Weather Bureau, secured his plaoe because of definite views wbioh he had upon meteor' ology, which were published in the Journal, of which he has charge.

Professor WUletts, Assistant Secretary of said today that the attention of Secretary Buak was first called to Professor Harrington because of two articles over the signaturs of Professor Harrington in that iournal. At thai time Pro. feasor Harrington's name was not under eon- aideration, and he had no reason to know that be would evea be thought of in connection with this office. One of the opinions of Pro fessor Harrington is, that a local predictor in the large cities can, with the aid of the daily weather map, make more accurate predictions than those made from Washington, and one of the plana which Professor Harrington haa is to sppoint a board of forecasters, as ha will term it. His first plan, and one which he be lieves will give mors aocurate weather pre dictions, will be to have twenty of the most skilled observers stationed in tbe large dtiee and at various points.

They will maks fore casts for a given area, How and where the local forecasters for a given area ars to be placed is now under Congress has made provision for twenty. The number maybe increased. Professor Harrington is of opinion that the general weather aerviee of tbe United States haa devoted itself to the in te rests of commerce than to agrieulture. It the purpose of Professor Harrington, while promoting all the interests of eommeree under ba new denartment. to endeavor to malts tb service of Increased benefit to agriculture.

Predictions will be placed in the hands of the farmer at tts earliest possibls moment, and iney wm oe so eonoiss in tneir nsture as to be of tbe greatest possible value. A farmer is especially interested in rainfall. A general or vague prediction is not particularly useful to him. Forecasts of rainfall are of little value to him unless tuey are precise aa to lime and space. Ha needs to know else whether tbe rain Is to be hesvy or light, witb or without wind; whether the rain is to be of short or long duration.

From tbe agriculturists' point of view it is a misfortune that the prediction of some of these features forms the most difficult fest which the forecaster bas to perform. The climate of the various States is to receive special study. It is the average weather or climate that determines the agricultural capacity of any region. It ia necessary, therefore, for a farmer to under. stana the ciimauc conditions under wbioh be is laboring before be ean hope for sneoese.

me question or droughts is to uouurgo a careful atudy, aa well as that of cloud bursts. It la expected that the Poetoffios Depart-ment will announce its policy under the postal aid act this week. The Postmaster uenerai orougnt with him from Cpe May the text of tue advertisement that has haan agreed upon. It is a lengthy paper, and goes uiuGu uimi uetaii. une expected difficulty has occurred in connection with this advertisement and it calls attention to the peculiar cnaracter oi national legialaaon.

Ths direc tion in tbe postal aid act aa to the scope and extent of tbe advertisement is mandatory but that aot contained no appropriation for the payment for that advertising. Th quenoe ia that it must be oaid for out of the general runo or tne aepartment for advertising purposes.

It is discovered that the new consular rss-n- la lions as to importations from Canada in volve rather more delay man the Treasury officials claimed would be the case. It had been fully determined at one time to abolish consular sealing altogether and to subject every importation from Canada to a tedious process or examination ana entry at tbe frontier. It waa only when Attorney General Miller expressed the opinion thai the pro- a a Ti i visions oi rawii i aenseu statutes establishing the sealing system could not be abrogated by executive decree that the plan was abandoned.

There are soma bins lor printing eau a iew minor maw tern which will be approved In due course by First Comptroller Matthews.

Mr. Sherman is of tbe opinion thst ths Republican party made a great mistake in not passing the election bill in tne last tongrsss. wunaa mat even the Republican leaders in Congress did not fully understand toe purposes of Ibe bill, which were only to increase the facilities for Srerenting illegal voting which the existing lw provides. "But," said Mr. Sherman, "if the preeent law snail oe laiinxmiy executed very muob ean be done to prevent illegal voting, particularly in tbe Northern.

States." Tbs bomb did not seem to Mr. Sherman to offer quite so hopeful a prospect. There is no truth in the report that Professor Soma, of the Marine Band, has gone insane in Europe.

That ia all I have to aay on the McKin-ley bill at present, I think it is sufficient don't youf" There is some remark here about the cold and neutral way in which Colonel John Hay has replied to the inquiries on the subjeot of tne MoCiure-Nicoley controversy.

His refusal to bandy epithets is approved snd the feeling ia that he haa stated his side of the question clearly snd strongly.

Trip of Ban IMegw Prmft casts oa tbe The San Diego gives the following ex perienee of two prospectors who were caught on the desert by tbe flood from tbe Colorado: W. W. Webb ani L. K. Grldiey are two San Diego men woo started front this city on May with a light wagon, two horses and two burros, together with the naewssary sttppQes and implements for a prospecting tour on tbe deeert.

Then' they were fair-skinned young fellows, and mow, oa taeir return from the Colorado basin, they are tanned like They -are also minus a wagon, two bums, and most of their eamp impedimenta. Some two weeks or more ago Messrs. Webb sod Gridley were in eamp ia a dry slough of tne New River, about one hundred and twenty mi Ida northeast of this city. A small pool near by furnished stagnant water, and they set about making a niter for it, While doing this tbe sioagh suddenly began to fill with fresh water, and before they knew it, almost, they were in danger of dt owning. The great Colorado fiood bad begun.

The prospectors shook their traps together snd started for dry land. wbioh they found some three miles away. But they had scarcely made a eamp when the flood was on them snd they had to move again, and still again, swimming their horses ever deep streams where but ths day before had been btiatertng sands. Tney went this way and that to escape the freshet, their horses and borroa swimming or wadieg, finally got to the sandhills about twenty miles from Yuma. Here another river was met, so wide and deep that It could not be crossed.

The eandbills themselves had bean torn ap, and among them tbe prospectors found the remains of an Indian rancnerie, some petrified human bones, olisa, petrified wood, and tbe hair of an Indian brave, from which the scalp bad long since rotted, These they put into their wagon and started to renew their search for a dry road to civilization. The next eenres lay west, but the young men found tne sand hills hard to get oat of witb ths wagon and animals, by aheer good luck tbe thing was done without accident, and in tbe coarse of a day or two they aaade eamp on a pieoe of high ground and were joined by three Indian hueta, a squaw, and two ehl-dren, who were also tryinar to escape. These natives examined the relies and pronounced tbe hair to have come front the head of an ancient Cooopah. After this it was a still more serious question whether Webb and Gridley could escape the water, which still rose around them, but tbe area or wade waa cheerfully resumed, and on June 24 they reached an elevation and were surprised to find a rude fort. This wss twenty-five or thirty miles north and east of Indian Wells, The fort, which nad long been- abandoned, was 800 feet square, its walla six feet high, and inside of it were the ruins of a house and tbe barred remains of some besvy wagons.

Near by waa a pool of water fed by a spring, in which were fish. Some meequite trees grew near by, and about the locality were noney-oees, coons, and various other animals. Soma gams replenished the larder, suoh ae anise and a red Mexican duck, both, of were very But there was no abatement of the flood, and the next day the fort was pretty well surrounded by the great bat shallow lake. Then the prospectors set about making a boat They took cracker boxes and fastened them together with meequite sticks, and stretched their tent over the improvised raft, tying it down at ths corners- Then they em barked, pushing the reds craft witb long- nandied anovela. i he horses were led behind, but the wagon and ths burros were abandoned.

PUT UNDER PEACE BONDS Those Foot Architectural Iron-Work- erg Who Waylaid Non-salon Hands. Justice Blame Was Satisfied of the Assaults and So Expressed Himself, He Thought Bonds for Fntnre Good Behavior Better Than Fines, v-: CV; THET GOT OFF EAST. Four architectural iron workers wsre put oa bonds of f300 each to keep the peace for six months by Justice Blums yesterday morn' ing. They were arrested two weeks ago on the charge of disorderly conduct. With many others they appeared at Wfhalow shops, and the testimony showed they created a disturbance when the non-union men went to and returned from work.

The men required to give bond ars: Joseph Leonard, August Schulta, John Miller, and Edward Lindburg. Similar eases auslnst John Hughes and J. J. Byaa were dismissed on account of aa prosecution. Ths eases against Louis Beidle or Little, as heretofore published, and Charles Mesur were continued until Friday morning.

John Simpson and H. J. Gates signed the bonds as sureties. So much tune was consumed in hearing the testimony ia four of the essea that ths morning waa gone before the eases of Mauer and little came up, and on request of ths defendants' attorney, William Peacock, these eases were continued. In the cases againat Miller, Sob alts, Leonard, and Lindburg tbe prosecution, represented by F.

K. Williams, attempted to show a conspiracy on the part of the defendants snd to prove that tney were detailed aa pickets to go among and intimidate the nonunion men, Justice Blume ruled againat this, holding that the charge wss simply one of disorderly, and that this fact wss all thst was necessary to be established in the eases.

Leonard he regarded aa a leader, mack cooler than any of the rest and probably of a calculating nature inspiring such men as 8ch Its to vlolsnoe.

Miller aod Lind-berg he regarded as followers of ths others. To his mind these eaaes were of much more importance than were, usually, brought to lbs attention of a justice. He thought he served tbe public beet by providing a remedy for these misdemeanors rather than a punishment Fines wsre inadequate. There was something behind all this which aroused the malice of ths men and were it not for the fortunate intervention of the polios, which just system of protection had provided for such emergencies, there neuld probably have been a crime committed under the cool leadership of some of these men. He recognised the fact that there waa a atriks oa head and that these troubles were directly traces bis to ths strike.

Personal, charges were made against the assaulted men, and whether true or raise the defendants bad no right to break the law or intimidate Ihem. There seems to be no malice except that growing out of wages. A peace bond was found to be effective in tbeee matters. Tbe odium of a fine would be averted and this means would be more apt to avert further grievance againat the men. mb.

AFFAIR. Tt is only a question of tune until ws have the submarine tunnel from Dover to Calais, -Joining England with Franco," ssid C. F. Findlsy at tbs Auditorium yesterday. Mr.

Findlsy is a young English engineer who, accompanied by A. L. Rath bone, an other engineer from liver pool, England, hss been trsveling extensively in tbe United States, studying matters germane to his Both gentlemen leave for New fork to-day, and will return to England Immediately. Ths only opposition to the schems at pree eat comes from ths English military continued Mr. Findlay.

"Lord Wols- ley, 'England's only general' as hs is ealled, heads this opposition, and people who do not take the trouble think for themselves accept tbe opinion of the aoldiers in preference to that of the engineers. But thia oppo- -sit ion ean not survive. It is preposterous to -think thst England could bs invaded frost' Europe via the tunnel. A system of sluicee at the Dover' end would soon tarnish a modern version of what happened toPhar- oah's army ia tbe Bed. 6." "Honestly, I believe this opposition to be ia reality ths outgrowth of national prejudioe snd Jealousy.

Though it may aot be true te ssy that tbe bitter feeling of ths old ha pole- onto times still exists, still there is aa aacaat of disarms tf alness between England and France, The republic resents every courtesy -shown to Germany, as an insult to herself; Ths Frenoh regard with suspicion the intimate relations of the English, and German '-royal families. France ia also somewhat sore over England's eeeapetaou ef EgypW This strikes the Frenoh people in their most sensitive point their military pride. They believed they had first mortgage ea Eypt, aad very naturally felt ehaxria at being ousted. "While this feeling of distrust prevaOa," Mr. Findlay said, it will aot be possible to Initiate a great Intonations! undertakintr which will require the loyalty, energy, good faith, and beet efforts of the two peoples.

-There ia every indication that this si spicioa will soon disappear. The French people have alwsy been favorable to the submarine tunnel scheme. The opposition, I regret to say, comes from our "What would be the advantages of the tun-nel? Why, they are ee If -apparent. It would bring Paris ss near to London by continuous railroad traveling aa Detroit is to' Chicago. All the engineering features have been ap- proved of, and it ia preposterous to have a niagmtioent work delayed because of prejudices of a number of old fogies.

Were this aa American qneatioa the tunnel would be ouiltin a year." Speaking ot the relative merits of elevated -and underground railroads, Mr. Findlay favored the former. He said elevated roads wars Impossible in London 'becaus of the prohibitive pricee that would be charged for righta of way. Besides, he ssid, there tea. strong prejudice ia England againat anything thst obstructs light or dungaree the streets.

Joha Buskin, who rails against everything material, baa a strong following, jar. Jindiay aaid. In I Chioago mreums tan oea ars widely dif- ferent," hs continued. "Toe should bave both elevated and surf aee roads. Each -v serves a distinctly different department of traffic.

The surface oars, pick ap passengers for short distances. The elevswd roads serve those who wish to travel rapidly for longer diatanoes, aay to the suburbs." "I would support aa elevated ia preference to aa underground system for he said. "Ventilation is aot all that is to be de- sired In the tunnels. Moreover, elevated made all things oonside red are the cheap- est; and what is cheapest is always the best. Tbe elevated roads oaa be rapidly built an4 admit of easy alteration.

This latter feature -U most important The world is advancing rapidly and we do aot know what will be tbe motive power twenty years hence. Boadwaye mevhavetobe Any considerable ehange in a tunnel ia out of the question." Mr. Findlay. said the field ot engineering waa larger and more advanced here thaa in England. The United Btatee offered great eeope to tbe skill of tbe engineer.

England was too small, and the works of the engineer was therefore circumscribed. About ths problem of transporting people to the World's Fair he waa not able to give aa -opinion. Ths queetion did aot arise ia Lob-don or Pane, where the expositions were in the centers of the eibsa, so to apeak. He thought that with existing facilities, aupple-mented by aa elevated road, there eouid aot -be much difficulty in the matter. Ex -Sena lor Palmer, President of the World's Fair Commission, who was seea at the Grand Pacific Hotel yesterday, declared that he waa aim oat completely recovered from his reoent ssvers illness.

in getting stronger every dsy, he ssid, "I had aa afcack of acute erysipelas in the head, aad am surprised that I am feeling so well, and so soon. Ths climate of dieege agrees quite well with me. though I prefer i that ot Detroit, which to more equable, havw ing none of the great variations of tempera-. tare which Chicago gets from the lake." M. Bennett, of the United States navy.

rag. ietered from Washington yeeterday at the Palmer House. J. Donald McLean to at the Grand Pacifls at ths close of a tour of inspection over the route of ths proposed Toledo and Chicago Bee line. Mayor G.

H. Moore and a number of Marion, Aldermen are at the Wellington, their Chioago viait being for the purpose of tnfnln- ing the else trie light system. Final papers were yesterday signed at the Grand Pacinc in a transsction which tbs man- ufaeturers at Maumee, Ohio, hope will realise for that little city the brilliant hopes regard- ing it which seemed so certain to lie realised three yeara ago. At that time the city of Maumee secured ihe ereotion thereof numerous large glaea and other planta by giving them sites and holding out tbe prospect ef unlimited natural gas. Ths planta wsre erected and ths roar of the gas from their pipes could be beard for miles around the eitv.

Suddenly tbe a apply became exhausted, and ruin seemed certain to the 000,000 invested there on the etrength of the promise of its lnexhaustable quantity. William Batchelor, repreeeaiing one of the glass companies, baa been at the Palmer for aome daye investigating a patented system of producing gas as cheaply as ie done In the natural gas regions, On ths advice of the experta whom he has employed hs yesterday dosed contract by which hia own establishment will be enabled to resume operationa at as little eoet ss when tbey first removed to -Maumee. He expressed himself aa astounded snd jublilsnt at the prospect, and atid that hia example would undoubtedly be followed by other manufacturers of the city, who, with millions of capital, are forced to remain idle merely waiting for something to "turn.
