THE BOSTON DAILY GLOBE TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1893. HIS CHUM. WORCESTER IN JAIIr. Big i to the last in this matter of protection against competing articles. If there was anybody in Europe making canned goods the producer here, if the speaker had the power, should have full protection, or other words equalization of taxes.

It had always been admitted that the country, had a right to tax luxuries that were imported. He would advance the Prmciple in economic laws as applicable and adapted to our nation of producers that any man who wanted to buy as against a 1 native product the product of another nation was in effect trying to buy a luxury which should be treated asa proper subject for taxation under that head. In conclusion he urged intelligent men of all parties to return the republican party and the cause it represents to power, thereby saving Massachusetts, and Dring-ing prosperity to the whole country from ocean to ocean. Mr Greenhalge spoke at an overflow meeting in the lower hall also, the audience here being mainly made up of Trench republicans. He Indorsed a Note Held.

is republi-o sil-er. de- conn-uehce Edgar L. Worcester, general manager ot the Worcester janitor night patrol com pany, occupied a cell in Charles st jail last evening. He was arrested on a civil process by sheriff Fitzpatrick. It appears that be was an indorser on a note which found its way into the assets of the John M.

Way estate. The note was not paid and an execution was obtained against Worcester. Failing to, pay he was taken into custody and will en- 1 deavortobe released by taking the poor debtors oath. Worcesters arrest has brought out many facts concerning his transactions as man ager of the company which bears his name. Hon Charles J.

Noyes is president of the company, and he says that he was induced to enter it, believing its promoters were honest. 1 He denounces Worcester, and says that on account of the latters mismanage ment of the companys business he wants nothing more to do with it. He is authority for the statement that many people have been swindled by Worcester who is alleged to. have advertised for help and demanded a deposit from them which he pocketed. Among.

those who it is alleged were swindled are Patrick Mahr of Cambridge and N. A. Mason. The company occupies palatial quarters the Equitable building, and advertised that they were capitalized for $100,000. Hon Charles J.

Noyes says that none of the stock has been purchased, hut Worcester alleges that $800 has been paid in. This amount, he alleges, was turned over to a lawyer named Marsh, who was connected with the company. The company was organized last June, and the following is a copy of the circular issued; C.

110 OA1U iiidj question What do you think of electing senators by the people? I say the wisdom of the fathers who framed the constitution of the United States is a little better than the wisdom of this glittering syndicate, Russell, Matthews and Quincy. I would rather stand on the constitution of the United States than on the democratic platform, framed by triflers of that sort. There is no common sense in going to the people at there times of great trials with flippant inquiries. I have answered every apparently reasonable question that was asked of me. I will answ er every one that bears in an intelligent and relevant manner upon the issues of this campaign, but I dont want any idler to stand up and, in order to stop the course of the genuine argument and presentation of of the case to the people of the United States, to ask ine what I think of- the domestic policy of the Peruvians.

I want to ask another question. If there is a democratic majority in the senate, what is there to prevent the adoption of a rule for taking an immediate vote on repeal. Third, ls it not the aim and purpose of the democratic partv as a whole Ido not mean the democratic party of New England, who are a helpless but a well-mean ing crowd to increase importations of manufactured goods aftd to diminish the production and consumption of domestic manufactures? If you -reply in the negative, please explain your answer? Fourth, why was it right in your judgment to vote to take off the dutvon Quincy granite and to retain the duty on Tennessee marble? My aim and the aim of the republican party is generally in favor of good clean government town, city, county and state, and I want to say that in Any Aniwer that I May Make in regard to these irrelarent questions that are suggested in the democratic platform as to what they call state issues I am not authorized, to make, any reply for the republican party, because the republican party has not made any decisions on these matters and does not regard them as party questions, One man may hare his opinion as to whether an executive council is necessary and important, another man may have thought that perhaps an election of senators by the people might be an improvement upon the method provided by th-o fathers, bnt I may say without committing the republican party any respect that it will not be of so much importance as to how you elect senators as how those senators will behave w-hen they are elected. And I want to know why with a full democratic majority in the senate in five minntes a rule could not be brought into being that would bring a vote on the repeal bill to an issue at once. A distinguished lawyer in New York says today that the vice president, the presiding officer of the senate, has the power today, if he had the courage and honesty, to refuse to entertain dilatory motions.

But neither the vice president nor the chairman, who pretends to be leading the forces of repeal, nave anv heart in that side of the struggle, and it is only your republican senators. Hoar and Lodge, at the front, upon whom you can depend for true and loyal action. Are not conservative men, business men, thinking about these matters? I dont care for the mind of the ignorant man always votes at the of some master. That slave we can. never rescue.

He is bound down in his slavery, and he likes it. You cannot raise him. But the intelligent democrat, the man who has some notion of business, some lore of his family, some true love of his country, to him I appeal to stand with ns in this mighty crisis, and if the voters of Massachusetts can roll up a majority of thousands for the great cause of sound money, of good business, of good government, equal rights and freedom, we shall see this country rescued from every impending peril. At the close of his speech Mr Greenhalge went down stairs to another hall where a rally of French republicans was in progress. He talked about 10 minutes, speaking of tariff and the duty of good citizenship.

TWICE IN LAWRENCE. Greenhalge Addressed Two Before Going to Haverhill. Lawrence, Oct 16 Candidate Greenhalge spoke at the city hall to a crowded house this evening. John L. Brewster, chairman of the committee, presided, and Mr Greenhalge and Hon Frank D.

Allen were the only speakers. The local band furnished music for. the occasion and chairman Winslow of the state committee. Dr A. J.

Robinson, H. R. Dow. Franklin Butler, Lewis R. Collins; J.

C. Crombie, C. 1L Littlefield, Thomas M. Cogswell, Alonzo Briggs, Joshua Robinson, J. D.

Drew and John Hough occupied the platform. Mr Greenhalge spoke first as he was booked for an address at Ha verhill later. Referring at the outset to the industrial rivalry between Lawrence and his own city of Lowell, he bade his hearers to. go forward in this splendid emulation, doing their best, knowing tliat the result must redound to the credit of the state and. the United States.

His aim and object, he said, had always been to unify the diverse elements that make up our composite nationality. 'The devotion, the loyalty of all liis.hearers belonged to the flag of the union and the commonwealth of Massachusetts. What was needed was symmetry, harmony, united effort to secure just and equal treatment between different types, classes and employments. The intelligence, high character and high standard of living among workingmen were the foundations of the republic. The tariff plavcd an important part In this connection.

His claim that a case of goods made abroad should not come i here and compete with a case of domestic goods that had borne part of the burdens of providing a revenue xor the municipal, county and Rallies fey The counter-claim had been put forward that the case of imported goods was paid for by canned goods, for instance, which had paid their proportion of thetax beforo they were exported. This line of reasoning was meretricious and illogical. It put the manufacturer or dealer in canned goods in the light of an individual bargainer for foreign made goods, hut when the maker of a domestic article stepped out and wanted to buy imported goods he came within the general law which must control a purchaser of that class of article. 1 He would protect the domestic producer fbar any dividends which tse her. i fell igent lnen'oT all pa whL.hDd 8ee olf order of things you had from 1880 to 1892 continued, and if Massachusetts rolls up butUford.rf,ft Tiiiority; not for me.

He then discussed the causes of the Present Basines Depression and the Sherman act. of which he said At the time rthat bill was passed the price of silver in the London market was an ounce, and the silver republicans had been saying to the easl ani north and west, moment yon enact that eolation. It did rise at first. Aug 19.

He continued: Miant to as my friend on the other side, Mr Russell, who has turned himself into something of an interrogation point jor the last few evenings, a few questions. 1 want to know when the really imai stroke was given to and business in-itinanoe? We haa the Nherman act on our statute books from March 14.

Then came shock, ive had what is called the cold reserve of a $100,000,000. That was like a veteran army corps, ready to act whenever a crisis was reached, and sudddenly this 'wonderful secretary of the treasury, Mr Carlisle of allowed that veteran corps to be assaulted, allowed that reserve to be down from $100,000,000 to $66,000,000 and the moment that news was telegraphed to New York, London, Paris ana the capitals of Europe, the distrust which bad been gathering from the indnstrial depression from the general doubt about the industrial and financial situation culminated and then came the monetary panic of the last few months. That AVaa the Crucial Stroke which brought about the trouble and wautto-ask my friend on the other side, first, do you approve the action of Sec Carlisle in making or allowing an innovation of the $100,000,000 gold reserve? I want to know wnether that policy is approved by the leading democrats of Massachusetts. It is very difficult to find where they do stand upon these matters.

After accusing the democrats of shirking the discussion of the financial depression by substituting the state issue of the executive council, ne said they had another I MEETING OF RAILROAD TRAINMEN. night with a requisition for E.

Biennial Convention of the Brotherhood Opened at Faneuil Hall Large Number of Delegates The biennial convention of the Brother-I hood of railroad trainmen began its ses- sion in this city this morning. The convention is being held in Faneuil hall.

Promptly at 9 o'clock Grand Master S. E. I Wilkinson of Peoria called the convention to order and appointed a committee on credentials. This committee after a short pause reported that there were 601 delegates present, one for each lodge, with no contesting delegations. There was no public ceremonies nor speeches of welcome by the governor and mayor, as had been expected.

These ceremonies, it i3 expected, will take place tomorrow evening in Faneuil hall. LUCY STONE WEAKER. May Not Live Through the Present Month, So Said Her Physician, Dr J. Heber Smith, Last Night. Lucy Stone is growing weaker daily.

Her physician. Dr J. Heber Smith of 279 Dartmouth st, said to a Globe reporter last evening: There has been no change for the better in her condition. She is gradually growing weaker. She may live through October, but it is doubtful.

She Is unable to take any solid food, and much of the liquid food which is given her she cannot retain. About the only thing which seems to be keeping her up now, is cracked ice and champagne. The current number of the Womans Journal contains, over the initials cf Alice Stone Blackwell, her daughter, the Mrs Stones strength has steadily declined during the past week. She is able to speak only a few words at a time; bnt her mind is clear. A flash of Joy passed oxer her face when we told her that the democratic state convention in New York had adopted a woman suffrage plank, and she said That ought to make the Massachusetts republicans ashamed.

A few hours later she looked up and said faintly, but with one of her old bright looks: Dr Holmes one-horse shay I Democratic resolution for suffrage in Kew York! Landslide for Suffrage in Colorado I This last referred to a letter received from Colorado, saying that there seemed to be a regular landslide for woman suffrage there, as the political conventions of all parties were passing resolutions I11 favor of the pending woman suffrage amendment. The thought In Mrs Stones mind evidently was that the opposition to equal rights was giving way in all directions at once, like the one-horse shay. rs Stone ls unable to take any solid food, or to retain much liquid food. This week site has suffered a good deal, though it is more weariness and discora-' fort than positive pain. She is entirely fearless and is longing for the end.

New York, Oct 16 Cornelius OReilly, better known as the Bard of Cavan, will no longer touch the lyre. He died today in the Bellevue hospital.

The death certificate cruelly states that the bards departure was hastened by the intemperate use of alcohol. Those who have known Mr OReilly during his 39 years residence in this country, know this to he rank libel. Mr OReilly had been more or less accustomed to take stimulants, but only as a means to an end. In his own language, he could never scale the bights of Olympus without a nip of the cruiskeen lawn. Mr OReillys lite is told in a collection of his poems.

He was in the habit of selling the work himself on the East side for 6 cents a copy. Mr OReilly was bora in Ireland. in the county Cavan, 68 years ago. As a boy, his chief pleasure was found in annoying Orangemen. In his native town he became such a nuisance that, to escape being killed, he joined the 8th regiment.

OReillys blood wa3 always at fever heat, and when the adjutant of the regiment on one occasion called a few of the Irish gentlemen In the cornpanj a pack of Irish hogs. because they broke ranks, he knocked him off his horse. In the army this was not considered good form. Mr OReiily took his punishment like a true patriot. A few months later the river Ixie broke over its banks.

He saw a young nurse girl carried away by the angry flood and plunged into it. He was swept down the stream a couple of miles, but he rescued the girl and her baby carriage. For this courageous act he was sentenced to two months imprisonment on the ground that he had deserted his post. After serving two weeks he was pardoned and sent to Cork. It was here that the bard made a name for himself.

It was the custom at the time foi the band to escort the regiment to church. Cornelius observed that the band played only as far as the Protestant church. The Catholic soldiers had to walk a couple of miles without the sound of a bugle note. On the following Sunday Cornelius decided to make a change in the regulation. When the band stopped at the old church he stepped from the ranks, and.

presenting a blunderbuss to the hand masters head, ordered him to proceed. The band proceeded, but the fire-eating fame of Cornelius had gone abroad and he was compelled to flee the country. He shipped to Liverpool and came to America uisguised as a peasant woman in the sailing vessel Star of the West. This was in 1854. LOSS IS $10,000.

Dwelling and Contents at 21 Beach St. Dorchester, Destroyed by Fire. Soon before 9 last night fire was discov- ered in the 2V-story wooden dwelling 21 Beach st, Dorchester, and an alarm was given from box 927. The house, hich was owned and occupied by James J. Breach its contents, valued at nearly $10,000, totally destroyed.

The fire was caused, it is thought, by a defective fiue. Mr Breach and his family were away, bnt returned about 10 to find their home In flames. The loss ls partially covered by an insurance of $5000. Nice Ioint in Duelist Circles. Personal at tacks bet ween journalists, says the Paris correspondent of the London News, are still a most important feature of French journalism.

This is the reason why duels are so frequent among French journalists. A novel case has just occurred, in which a journalist, aggrieved by an article which was, according to French, notions, emphatically a case for a duel, has been compelled to seek some other redress, the offending party (offending in the technical sense) being a woman. Ihe ex Bouiangist journalist, Mer-meix, having been sent by tbe government on a mission abroad. Mine Beverine, the indy journalist, pointing out that Mermeix was a renegade to his party, having sold Boulanger for t.be price which the government and the Ducnesse dUzes gave for his book, the Coulisses du Boulangismc. Mine Bever-ine compared him to Judas.

Mermeix was bound to take notice of this. To challenge a lady was of. course impossible, and to attack her was difficult. It was open td him to fight tbe editor of the paper, but that course was unsatisfactory. An action at law would be unprofessional.

Mcrinoix has taken the conrse of ap- Sointing, together with the editor of the Iclair, a jury of honor. This jury will give ft verdict. When Fatigued They Rest. Newburg, Oct 16 J. J.

She is now in St Johns hospital. Hartford Butcher Ccmmits Suicide. Hartford, Oct 16 Alfred Grunacli, a butcher, 25 years old. committed suicide this afternoon by throwing himself in front of a railroad train. No cause is known for the act.

DIME NOVEL HEROES. I Three Quincy Boys Start on Their Travels. They Passed a Forged Check and Then Stole a Yacht. Young Eascals Are "Armed and Have Eluded the Police. Three Quincy boys started out to seo the world Sunday.

Their parents didnt know they were going, although they are now bemoaning the fact that the youngsters fairly lived on the inspirations gained from a perusal of the daring deeds of Dare Devil Dick, or the wonderful achievements of Parson Shanks, thesplder detective, who wove the web around the blood-stained Borgia of Bulgaria. The boys names are John Clare, Ernest Baker and William Smith. Their parents are estimable residents of Quincy, and were frantic last night when the Boston police could give them no tidings of the missing lads. The officers connected with the police boat searched all the islands in the lower harbor yesterday afternoon, and learned that the boys had been on Peddocks island, thoroughly armed and on the lookout for buffaloes and Indians, but, not finding any game, abandoned the boat which they had stolen and came to Boston. Clare was well supplied with money, having Passed a Forged Order at the Quincy institution for savings for $500.

His father was a depositor in the hank and amply able to supply the deficiency. According to the parent of one 1f the boys who visited station 1 last night, the boys had highly exalted opinions of Robinson Crusoe and his man Friday. They believed that Crusoe could be emulated this later day, and the Clare boy easily inauced his companions to join in the scheme. The Clare hoy said that it was possible to reach the Worlds fair by water, and after they had witnessed the exposition they could set sail for the South sea islands and possibly conquer them by the aid of advanced stvles of weapons. The subject of cannibalism was discussed at length, and it was decided that by acting together and hoisting the American flag on the masthead of the craft they could overcome the flesh-loving proclivites of the natives.

Thursday morning they boarded a yacht in Quincy bay and hoisted sail. Clare had taken his fathers bank book and with an order raised $500 from the bank. The three boys were thoroughly armed and the cabin closely packed with the choicest selection from hal dime libraries. In the early morning the brisk breeze drove them out to sea and they were in all readiness to Tame the Savages. They had many rounds of ammunition, and in case their guns were taken away from them, they each had long, sharp, wicked-looking bowie knives in their inside pockets, purchased by young Clare.

They reached Peddocks island before sundown and determined to camp there. The few remaining inhabitants on the island supplied tne boys with food and water, although the hoys had amply provided themselves with costly fishing tackle to be nsed in ca.se the savages objected to their landing on the islands for supplies. The Boston police had been notified regarding the boys a short time after the yacht glided out of the harbor and was lost to view in the mist surrounding Pemberton. A force of officers landed on one end of the island and the boys- saw them. Leaving all their effects behind them with the exception of the weapons, they hoisted sail and started across Hull gut.

The officers gathered a miscellaneous collection of fishing tackle, but the boys were nowhere to be seen. 'IheylandedT at the end of Point Shirley shortly before noon and it was decided to abandon the boat. They changed their plans regarding the capture of the South sea islanders, and it is believed that they intended, after visiting the Worlds fair, to push onward to the wild and woolly west to subdue the Indians. The yacht is missing and all the pilots in the harbor have been requested to keep a lookout for the craft. The boys were seen in Boston yesterday afternoon after coming ont of a dime museum and the police think that they took a train for New York and escaped the vigilance of the officers who werq watching the trains.

FORTUNES IN A TEACUP. Tour Fate Foretold by the Clustering or Scattered Leaves. If anybody happens to have two spoons in their cup it is a sign that they will figure prominently at a wedding before the year is out. If milk or cream is put in your cup before the sugar it will cross your love. A tea stalk floating on top of the tea is called a stranger.

When 'this happens to unmarried women they should stir the tea briskly and then place the spoon in the center of the cup, holding it quite still. If the stranger in its gyrations is attracted to the spoon he will come that evening; should it, however, cling to the sides he will not come at all. We may observe that it really depends on the state of the atmosphere as to Whether thS stalk goes to the middle or not. 1 1 is a sign of fair westher if the clusters of small air bubbles, which usually rise after the sugar has been put in, collect themselves and remain in the centerof the cup. If.

on the contrary, they straggle to the sides, it is a sign that it will certainly rain in a few hours. This cluster of bubbles is also called a kiss and wirtends that the owner will be thus saluted during the course of the day. A cluster of tea leaves with a few stragglers at the front at the bottom of the cup signifies a hearse or a funeral, while the couple of leaves at the bottom, if close together, signify a wedding. If the tea grounds take the form of a oman on the side of the cup it signifies a rival in love; if it looks like a bird, it means news from a distant friend if it looks like a book it refers to a well-known acquaintance who is at college: if it looks like a tree, it means soon taking a journey into the country; if two stalks come together, it means you are to meet a man: if it looks like a snake, it is an enemy. If it is a dog.

you will meet or hear from a friend if it looks like a house or a sited, it means that when married you will keep house for -yourself and not board; if it looks like spire, it means you will be married in church; if it looks like a duck or a swan, it mepns that you will soon crass the ocean if it looks like a bridge it is an unquestioned sign that your marriage will be nappy and your life long and strong. If it looks like a man fishing with a roil, it points to a preacher who may either officiate at your marriage or become your hus--baml: if it looks like a -mail with many spots lying before him, it means that your husband will be rich, and may be a banker: if a broken bridge turns up on the side of the cup, it means that your marriage will be unhappy. If there are undulations on the side of the cup, some faint and some heavier, it menns a checkered life or a career of struggle, sometimes light and sometimes severe. St Louis Globe-Democrat. Mr J.

J. Hoars Reelection. -Mr J. J. Iloar has received from Osborne Howes Jr, secretary of the Boston board of fire underwriters, a letter in which the cordial wish is expressed that Mr Hoar will again be reelected to the next legislature.

Mr Hoars past activity in the matter of placing electric wires underground and tha interchangeable miieagi bill are the especial matters favoiably commented on in the letters. Panama and Saratoga 8afe. Havana, Oct 16 Anxiety about the steamers Panama and Saratoga, from New York, is allayed, as the Saratoga arrived tonight. She reports having encountered tiie cyclone last Thursday, and sighted the Panama on Friday.

Thousands Were There and Thousands Are Yet to Come. Chicago. Oct 16 The first visitor to enter Jackson park today was a boy. He was followed by thousands of his schoolmates and the success of juvenile week at the fair was assured. During the first hour the gates were open the children taxed the ability of the ticket sellers and crowded the turnstiles, entering the grounds with a shout they started in their own peculiar way in pursuit of a liberal education and positively took possession of the exhibition.

Within an hour after the gates were opened there was little on the exposition grounds that had not been hurriedly inspected by some of the young ones. One of the first things that caught the eye of the schoolboys was liberty bell on the administration plaza. They climbed over it, marked their names with chalk upon it, and then one of them found out the secret of ringing it, and the Worlds fair officials were startled by the irregular peals that rang out from the valued relic. The bell had never been rung before without a days preparation for the imposing ceremony. Quite a number of young women teachers brought their classes.

The trials of such thoughtful instructors cannot be recounted. They made a splendid appearance when they came in together. They gave exhibition drills and marched across the plazas for the benefit of the exposition officials. A few had beenttaught the lock step for the occasion and made a fine line as they crossed the open space between the admin-istration building and the terminal station. A good many of the young folks and not a lew of the teachers sought instructions on the midway.

They were everywhere. With open mouths and wide eyes they went through the buildings and saw the various displays. On through the manufacturers building, the government pavilion, the fisheries aquarium and into the art gallery they were led. They saw much that they could not understand, but a happier crowd of youngsters never took an outing Every child in the public school will see the World's fair this week, and the generous citizens of Chicago will see to it that none are neglected. Superintendent Lane today gave out 10, OOO tickets to principals and to teachers, and this large number does not include the many children that will be sent by gentlemen who have especially interested themselves in certain schools.

Manhattan day will be a corker. The committee of IOO, which is responsible for the ceremonies of the day, is fully alive to its opportunity. The program was announced today, and it is attractive enough to satisfy the most ardent patriot from Manhattan island.

Chicago, Oct 16 For God and home, and every land, was the password of the thousands of women that, as early as 8 o'clock this moming.began to gather at the art palace and to enter the portals of the hall of Columbus. It was the second biennial convention of the Worlds Womans Christian temperance union, and the women it had brought together represented not only this continent but many other lands.

Lady Henry Somerset, who had journeyed especially from England, in her capacity of vice president-at-large of the organization, to represent Miss Willard, who is in England for her health, called the opening session to order. Five minutes responses to the welcomes were in order after the gathering had joined in the chorus of the temperance hymn, Some Glad Day. Mrs Emma Williams spoke for Canada, Miss Jessie M. Ackerman for Australia and Miss Lide Meriwether of Tennessee for the temperance women of the United States. After these social formalities the convention got down to routine business, with the call of delegates and the appointment of committees.

At the afternoon session the convention resolved itself into a mass meeting under the presidency of Rev Anna H. Shaw, and addresses were delivered by several foreign delegates, among them Lady Henry Somerset of England, Alias De Broen, president of the French Womens Christian temperance union, and SenTsudaof Japan. Lady Somerset read, amidst breathless silence, an address from Miss Frances Willard. dictated from her bed of sickness at her temporary English home. It was a general leview of the work in all parts of the world made in the cause ot temperance by W.

C. T. U. missionaries in different countries. Very touching and pathetic was that part of her address which related to the women of India and described the cruelties of caste which prevail there, but she said that much good had been accomplished in that land by the W.

C. T. and the hold and fearless denunciation of the system of legalized vice maintained by the British government had resulted in the appoint-menofa royal commission to inquire into the whole subject. The address also stated that the intention of the great polyglot petition seems to have been geneially misunderstood. It is not supposed that It will produce any strong impressions upon any government.

The object is rather to focus public seuti-ment. At tonights session devotional exercises were conducted by Mrs J. K. Ramey, and the third and fonrtli around-tlie-world mis-sionariesj Mrs Elizabeth Wheeler Andrew and Dr Kate Bushnell, delivered addresses, narrating wiiat had been accomplished in tiie cause of temperance during the past two years.

OLIVER WANTED BLOOD. Entered a Bakeshop and That Was a Mistake-Secured a Pistol and Became Reckless. Yesterday afternoon Joseph Oliver, Italian, 29 years, entered the bakery ot Julia Clark, 18 Green st, where he is said to have assaulted an old woman. Michael Hurley, one of the bakers, interfered, and tried to eject Oliver from the shop. The Italian drew a knife and chased Hurley from the place, threatening to kill him if he could catch him.

Oliver returned to the bakery last evening about 8 with blood in his eye and a revolver in his pocket. He asked for Hurley and was informed -by another baker, Arthur Hookway, that Hurley was upstairs eating his supper. Hook way refused to call Hurley, when the Italian drew his revolver and fired two shots at him. The bullets went wide of the mark, hot one of them went through the back door and passed directly through the room of Sirs Miller. 4 Moss pi.

It is the worst color an aging, woman can wear. When akin dly-disoosed employment agent is anxions to place a young nurse girl iff a responsible position she always tells her to get a black dress, knowing that it wil make 16 appear 26. Ir the religious orders of the different churches the black uniform is adopted, not for economy, but to protect the gentle nans and novices from admiration. There is no color so generally leveling and unbecoming as black. Black is awe-inspiring.

Black is also depressing: it has a disagreeable effect upon men and animals. Dogs and babies will make friends more readily with brightly dressed people than with those in black garments. In normal colleges pupil teachers are advised not to dress in black any more than is necessary. No physician of the present day will allow a black-garbed nurse to care for a serious case. White makes a woman look.

big, wholesome. innocent, winsome and classic. AVhite is a favorite color with designing women of the world. The woman in white is generally the one who takes away another woman's husband, while the girl in white with a bine ribbon under her chin is the one who has all tbe beaux at the party. Slim, sickly, careworn and colorless women look best With velvet bonnet strings and a lace scarf or ruche qbnut the neck.

A woman with red hair should beware of pink, strawberry and scarlet. Blue above her waist is apt to make an unpleasantly strong contrast. Green is her color, white will be her stand bv.and there are reds, browns, coffee, oak and copper that will make her a mode for an artist- who dotes on beauty. A tat woman should leave plaids, flounoes and ruffles alone and a thin woman must avoid stripes. Red will brighten any woman but a red-haired one it is the most charitable color in chromatic.

Invalids on their up days look their very prettiest in red robes. More than one pale patient with a crimson silk lounge coat has caught her physicians fancy while convalescing and married him. AVON.

Your vastly larger proportion of TRAIN ROBBERS' EOLD SCHEME.

Whole Carload of Passengers Stupefied by Chloroform Being Poured on the Cushions of the Seats. Lima, Oct 16 A' queer story of an attempt to rob a carload of passengers on the eastbound vestibule limited on the Erie line, Sunday night, is told by officer Haller of the local police department of this city. He said to The Globe correspondent today: The train was unusually well filled with eastern people, returning from the fair. After the train had passed Decatur one of the brakemen passed through the day coach and noticed that every passenger iu the car seemed to he in an unnaturally sound sleep. lie noticed an oppressive, pungent odor and began to feel sick.

BOTTOMLESS KANSAS PIT. Farmer Discovers a Cave Which Seems to Have No Limit in Extent or Depth Furious Winds Issue from It. Wichita.

Kan. Oct 16 A wellnigh incredible story comes from Monoleth, small village 100 miles west of here. Last Sunday James L. Wignal. a well-to-do farmer, while biasing trees for felling in a long-neglected timber belt, came upon the trunk of an extremely large oak which had been shattered by lightning.

In falling the deep root 3 of the tree had uplifted a large strata of earth, and at the bottom of the cavity there was visible part of a flat reck. appearance of which exciting Mr W'ignals curiosity, he clambered down and exainined it. To his astonishment, the rock gave forth a hollow sound. Being without proper means for removing the rock, which was of unknown dimensions, he procured assistance and returned for further exploration. The rock proved to be a ledge cropping of limestone formation.

-Upon drilling.when the depth of four feet was reached, tha drill suddenly disappeared and no sound was heard of its strik--mg bottom. As the explorers were about to insert a dynamite cartridge to blow the rock out, they were astonished to notice that a strong current of air was issning from the drill hole with a force that was so strong as to prevent any successful attempt being made to tte the blast. This air current was non-inflammable and continued for nearly lo minutes, when it suddenly ceased. The cartridge was then exploded, and a section of tha rock nearly three feet square was torn out. Nothing could be seen, and no stones dropped into the aperture and thrown in anv direction hit nothing, nor could any sound be heard of their striking below.

In a few minutes a distant roaring noise was andible, and suddenly a mighty wind was again rushing from the depths of the abyss through the rent in the ledge. Limbs of trees and pieces of rocks thrown into the current were carried fully 75 feet by the upward rush of the air, and it was with the utmost -difficulty that any of the party could approach near enough to pitch objects into the orifice. This morning about 20 feet more of the rock was blown away, but the regular recurrence of air blasts continues at 10 minute intervals. No explanation is vouchsafed of phenomenon and the work of blasting exploration is being rapidly pushed ward. MEDFORD CAR SERVICE.

New Arrangements Made for the Public Convenience. Medford, Oct 16 About three weeks ago the Medford hoard of aldermen petitioned the railroad commissioners to compel the West End street railway company to give the citizens of the city better accommodations and stop the vexatious delays at Winter Hill.

The citizens have awaited the result of these conferences with great anxiety, and will be pleased to ieam that a satisfactory compromise has been effected. The previous conditions have been very much modified, although the members of the aldermanic board claim that the effect of both sets is practically the same. The road is allowed to use the present rails for four yeaTS, nd is to have cars running to Medford sq by Jan 1 next, to Maiden by July 1, 1894, and from West Medford to Malden by Jan 1, 1395, the fare to be five cents.
