When his party was passing through Ver mont on their wav to Portland. Maior Wiseman was struck by the bare, meager look of the farms, their smallness and the outward look of poverty. He remarked many times upon the stunted appearance of everything, and regarded the little hillsdale or valley homes as the abodes of hard living, for which pure air would hardly compensate.

His comparisons wore always with Kansas farms, Kansas views and Kansas wealth. When the train slowed up at a little station for the engine to take Aiajor Wiseman got up to stretch his cramped legs, and, walking down the platform, he met a native." a man whose looks did not be token starvation, but whose general appearance indicated close economy. Our Major interrogated him with unusually patronizing blanduess "My friend, do you live here I do." Do you own a farm here "Yes." Do you raise enough to eat per sisted the Major. Oh. ves.

we manasre to get enough, Don't, some of your people starve Baid our Kansas friend. I shouldn't think you raise enough to keep body and soul together. You should move to Kansas where we raise eighty bushels of corn to the acre and sixty bushels of wheat That is the place to live The "native" did not seem struck with wonder, but quietly remarked. We manage to get along." Do you moke anything then asked Kansas. Yes.

I have made enough in twenty years to get mortgages on two large farms in Kansas," replied the Vermonter. For a moment Major Wiseman was staggered, but, standing by the Grasshop per Mate, ne returned to tne cnaree. Why, we waste more wheat and corn Kansas than you can raise on your farms here. Uur farmers throw away more than your entire crops amount to." I believe you do, said the ermonter, "If you didn't waste so much perhaps the interest on my mortgages would be paid more promptly.

THE "PALL HALL GAZETTE" DISCLOSURES.

The social-purity movement founded on the revelations made by the Pall Mall Gazette, is steadily gaining strength in England. The prosecution of Mr. Stead greatly strengthened the movement, and is now headed by the Methodists, as an organization, and is warmly advocated by all the organs and preachers of the denomination. Meetings are being organized make the public acquainted with new developments of scandal in high places, and to inaugurate a general system of boycotting tradesmen and commercial houses managed by men of reputed sexual immorality. Several of the great West End shops, in Which swarms of young girls are hired at the most meager wages, have been denounced by name in these public meetings as places of ruin.

Young men and ladies have been warned to avoid them. Letters have been read, accusing London ioumalists of general immorality. The Methodist Times even goes so far as to explain the "conspiracy of silence maintained by the majority of London newspapers against the Fall Mall Gazette and their attack up in Stead for making hi3 revelations, by alleging that an appalling state of vice, exposed by Stead, exists the press circles of London. This paper prays that God may raise up some mighty journalistic Hercules "to cleanse the augean stables of journalism. A DISTINGUISHED CONVERT.

PIANOS AT NEW ORLEANS.

Amisell Pianos worn given the highest award of merit by the jury at the New Orleans Exposition. No other award was in dorsed by the United States Commissioners. The musical press and some piano manufacturers of New York show absolute rage and frenzy against the Antisell Pianos and seem to think we are their only opponents. Our heinous offense is that we got the highest honors paid at the World's Exposition at New Orleans. The jury who gave the Antisell award con sisted oi Messrs.

It was opened by Mr. Clayton, and then it was discovered that he was seriously ill. Two physicians wore called in. They examined the patient, but could not ascertain the cause of his illness. They expressed the opinion, however, that he would die.

Carroll Cook paid a visit to the sick chamber, and identified the sufferer, who wa3 unconscious at the time. At the Westminster, on Sutter street. where Mr. Clayton has been residing, an Examiner reporter was informed at 2 o'clock this morning that none of Mr. Clayton's family were in tho house, but that his wife was passing the night with her sister at her residence on Essex place.

The reporter then called at the residence of Wales Palmer, Mr. Clayton's brother-in-law. The gentleman was astounded when informed of the circumstances. He stated that Mr. Clayton had left his home, the Westminster House, on Friday morning in the best of Irits, telling his wife that he was going to San Jose to visit his brother and would return in a few days.

Nothing was heard from him in the mean time, and uneasiness was expressed in regard to his well-being. Yesterday San Jose was communicated with by telephone and it was learned at about 5 o'clock that he had not visited there. This created alarm and every means was taken to discover the whereabouts of tho missing man, but nothing was learned until the Examiner representative called at the house. Mr. Clayton was a member of Congress in 1875-6, being elected on the Republican ticket over Mr.

Piper. Prior to this he was Surveyor of this Port, and also served several terms in the Legislature of this State. Sir. Clayton has been distinguished for his social qualities, and his genial disposition. He has been for many years a prominent business man of thiscity, conducting a commission business at the northwest cornerof Clay and Front, He has a wife in this city and a brother, James, who lives at San Jobs, and a brother in the East, and also a sister, who is the wife of Mr.

Palmer, of No. 2 Essex place. Mr. Clayton's brother arrived from San Jose last evening. Mr.

Clayton was discovered at the New- land House, at 10:30 o'clock last evening, and up to 3 clock this morning physicians were unable to determine whether his condition resulted from apoplexy or from opium poisoning. At that hour he was not expected to live. No poison or evidence of it was discovered in his room, although a thorough search was made. He had drank bottle of beer on Friday, but it could not be ascertained whether or not there was poison in the liquor. Hyperdermic injectsons of brandy were given ana ice was Kept on the patient's head.

DUTCH RISE. The Process hy Which It Is Hilled and Polished Kent Secret. Naw York Bon. The finest rice is known as Dutch rice and comes from Amsterdam. It is grown in Java and milled and polished in Amsterdam by some peculiar process which American millers are very anxious to learn.

The "Dutch rice" has more per fect grains, a better luster, and is less broken than rice milled in this country. Many attempts have been made to learn 1 be Dutch process, but they guard it with jealous care and allow no one in their mills. It is suspected that they use oil, as the rice when confined in a bag for some time gives the cloth a soft, greasy feeling. Recently the state Department sent out a circular to consular officers request ing information concerning the prepara tion of rice. The consuls had no better luck than other people.

They recently reported that the manufacturers declined to divulge the secret, saying it was of the utmost value for them to preserve it, and that they would not furnish the method to their own Government. The Dutch rice is worth one-quarter of a cent more per pound than other rice, simply because of its fine appearance, but when cooked it is no better than any other rice. American millers are secretive about th processes of milling, and decline to allow strangers to go through their works. The grain comes from the thrashing mill as rough rice or paddy, anil requires grinding to free it from the hulls. It is first screened to gat rid of the sand, and is then passed between a pair of heavy stones, five feet across, to remove the outer husk.

Thence it goes into large wooden mortars, the ironshod pestles to which weigh 250 to 350 pounds each, and is pounded for two hours, when it is ready for screening. Some mills clean the rice by means of wire cards, without pounding. Finally the rice is screened into flour, broken rice, middling rice and prime rice. The prime rice passes into the polishing or brushing screen, which is a vertical cylinder, laid np and down with shreds of sheepskin, and made to revolve within a wire screen. This cleans off the flour and gives a polish to the grains.

The best rice produced in this country is grown in South Carolina. The Chinese consume a great deal of rice in this city and are said to use only the best quality. The majority of New York families serve boiled rice as a sort of paste, with the grains all merged together. In the South, where its cooking is properly understood, it is served with every grain clean and distinct. It is eaten there as a vegetable with pepper and salt, while North it is regarded as a desert and eaten with sugar or molasses.

It is said that the rice should be put into salted water which is boiling hot. In five minutes the water should be drained off, and the covered pot left for twenty minutes longer on tne coals.

October 3. The Indian excitement that has been rife here the past two days is subsiding, and the ranchmen have returned to their homes.

Troops and of the Sixth Cavalry, came in from the Mexican border to-day. Generals Crook and Bradley are here and will use this point as a center from which to distribute the men. as emergencies may demand. The main body of thehostiles, with Natchez at, their head, are now in the Dragoon mountains, with two companies of Indian scouts, under the command of Captain Crawford, in pursuit. The capture of the renegades seems more pro Da Pie now than at any other time dur ing this wearisome and, so far, fruitless campaign.

As soon as they reached the dragoons party moved with great caution, as fresh Indian signs were seen on every side. Just as they started down the grade on the other side of the pass, the wagon accidentally overturned and the occupants and coffin were thrown to the trround. Dinsrly. who was dnvinsr. held on to the lines and succeeded in stopping the team.

The wagon was righted and the party proceeded a little distance. when Keefe shouted Indians 1 A short distance ahead on a small divide stood three Apaches, whom the guns of the farty covered in an instant. The ndians moved their hats and displayed red handkerchiefs to indicate that they were scouts. They then came up to the Keefe party and one Indian, who could talk considerable English, said they were on the way to notify some soldiers that a larga body of rene gades had crossed tne middle pass and were movina: south. After a brief conver sation the two parties continued on their respective missions.

As the mere statement of Apaches was the only evi dence of their being scouts, it is possible they were tne very murderers of the man whose body the party wag seeking. The fact that upon any occasion when Indians are in danger they can claim to be Govern ment scouts and thus escape, almost assures them.security in their murderous work. SACRAHE.VTO.

Its strictures in many instances are very severe. Eight indictments and two informations have been found. The County Jail is condemned for its cramped room and imperfect sewerage.

Chinatown is pronounced a disgrace to the city, being a standing menace to the health of the city and should be cleaned out.

0CAN CAGLES. Discussion About the Competition of the 9f aekay-Bennett Lines. London, October 3. The London man agers of the Atlantic cable companies, in the present pool, will meet in this city next week. It is positively stated that the ob ject of the meeting is to arrange for a re duction of the present cable tariffs be tween England and the United States, from 24 cents to 12 cents on commercial messages, and from 12 to 6 cents on press messages.

The Directors of the English companies in the pool are said to be all in favor of making the proposed reductions. They take the trround that the opposition of the Mackay-Bennett cables must be ended by annihilation. This opposition, it is argued, has already made pool divi dends so small, that the shareholders will consent to sacrifice them entirely for a time in a war of rates that will either bre ik down the opposition or compel it to join the pool and result eventually in rais ing tne tariff all round and an eventual in crease of pool dividends. The American pool directors, i the other hand, are said to be less willincr to consent to the pro posed reductions, and to be quite timid in entering into a war of rates. They profess to be uncertain about the outcome oi such a war, and up to date nave not Deen in duced to consent to it.

THE APPROACHING ELECTION. The Tories are not yet ready to bcein the campaign for supremacy in the next Parliament. The Ministry has therefore decided to postpone the dissolution until December 7th. The reason given to the public for this action is that the difficulties grow ing out of the enormous registration, under the enlargement of the franchise, requires an extended time for adndication and ad justment. The campaign, when it does open, will tie tne ncrcesi ana most thor oughly contestea ever ioua.it in Ureat Britain.

Every voter in theVountry will probably bo reached and interested. In this connection it is Dointea out mat when the United States enfranchised the black freedmen hardly 600,000 voters were added to the lists, but England has as suddenly added nearly three times as many voters to her suffrage lists and the addition certainly contains a greater muss of ignorance. Practically the whole number have no decided political leanings. They will be Liberal or Tory, according to the influences brought to beir on them. The result will have a stupendous influence upon the destiny of England.

It is fair to assume that before the close of the campaign the parties will have arrayed th-i old vters pretty weH On the old lines, and that the issue will be decided by the new ballots. The election may decide whether the English trade policy shall be free cr protectionist; whether the Church and Stats shall be divorced or remain united; whether a unification or disintegration of the empire shall ensue; whether Great Britain snail continue to Interfere in for eign affairs and remain among tho first Powers or hold aloof and fall back into the seoond rank.

New York, October 3. At 8:30 this even-kg Policeman Dougan, of the Central Park Police, on duty near Seventy -second street, heard a pistol shot, then a second and a third in quick succession. Hurry-lng through the shrubbery in the darkness. he found himself close by the statue of the Pilgrim, on the east drive, when he heard another shot, then several deep groans, and then all was still. A light was struck, and this was what he saw A man and woman.

robed in deep black, as though prepared for funeral, lying upon a horse-blanket. The woman was deed, but a smile was ap parently upon her face, which had been pretty. THE MAS WAS DYING, And soon was also stilL On the woman's breast which she had bared to receive the jkullet lay a lock of her lover's hair, and upon his a dead leaf and rose. Each wore on the left hand a black glove and be tween them lay a "bulldog" pistoL A drop of oil on the woman's hands and the grime of smoke on her fingers showed that it was no murder, but a caso of suicide, and the man having died last, in dicated that he waited tho woman's death before taking his own life. Two bullet holes were found in her breast over the ieart, and her companion's aim had been as true.

Between them was a box full of love letters. The two bodies were placed on stretchers by the officer and others who had arrived and carried to the street, where a wagon was procured in which they were taken to the Morgue. There the box of letters was opened. Pai of them was written by George Bassendorf of No. 19 Liberty street, Union, Hudson county, N.

and addressed to "Maria." Who "Maria" was, or is, was not dis closed. Among the papers were ballots of destiny, that had been taken by the two. They had clearly sat with each other and deliberated about death, and left it to chance, each at the same time writing the fatal wish upon paper. The slips were there, and on them the words "BDAU WEDlEf And Shall we liver The die had finally been cast fatally, and the two, it is reasoned, had repaired to the park together. The man was a compositor on the fireie Ptcms of Jersey City.

Each was about 30 years old. The woman's letters told of a wedded life that was a perfect hell and of a husband who. to her, was a demon. The letters of each give the impression that their love had be -n without stain and only hopeless. They loved each other so much.

and could be to little to each other, that they concluded to die. The woman left some letters for her children and others, all of whom are in Germany. Bassendorf had boarded in her family, and thus she had come to love him more and her hus band less. IRELA. D'S CAUSE.

Inin tens and Enthusiastic Meelins In Clitcn e. Chicago, October 3. The mass meeting held to-night for the purpose of raising funds for the Parncll campaign was well attended, probably 5,000 persons being present, among whom were quite aspriok- Hug of ladies. When the object of the meeting was stated by the chairman, the nthusiasm of the crowd found vent in prolonged applause and cheering. A prominent feature of the occasion was a speech by Alexander Sullivan, the ex- President of the Irish National League of America.

Sullivan appearance was treeted with cheers. His speech, which was most eloquent, aroused the wildest nthusiasm. Before Sullivan had spoken a dozen sentences, his audience had iwollen to at least 10,000. During the vening hundreds of people were turned way from the doors, every inch ot stand ing room inside being occupied. Fol lowing Alexander Sullivan, several other Bpeeches were made by Judges Koran, Tuley, Prendergast and ex-Con- pressman John Finnerty.

Each spoke upon the subject for which the meeting was called. The enthusiasm ex hibited by the audience was remarkable, and when subscriptions were called for, hardly an individual present failed to re spond. The lowest estimate places the amount subscribed at $5,000, making a total of $10,000, thus far raised for this ob ject in Chicago. On motion of Alexander Sullivan, the following telegram was approved and ordered to be sent to Mr. Parnell in Eng land: Ten thousand Chicago Americans in mass meeting send through lienin.i Connor to Dr.

Im Becard to InsBfllrieatly Stamped Matter. Washiugtoh. October 3. The PostofHce Department has ruled that where third and fourth class matter is mailed, directed to a distant locality, not a poatoffioe, and inadvertently put in the mails and carried away from the office of mailing, such matter will be returned, and return postage charged when the return request is found upon tho wrapper. The claim has been set up by persons interested that such matter should not have been sent out from the postoftlce where it was mailed, but should have been returned to the sender for better direction.

The department holds, however, that the sender should sufTer for his own neglect in not properly addressing the matter. The Postofflce Department is in receipt of a number of inquiries relative to the operation of the Executive order, made by lre-iiuent Grant in 1872, forbidding Federal officials to hold State or municipal offices. Representations are made that many newly-appointed Postmasters are members of Board) of Supervisors or Aldermen, or hold other small municipal offices, which not make heavy demands upon their time and pay little or no salary. In such cases where the mnnicipal ollice ies not interfere with the duties of Postmaster it urvred that the Executive order might relaxed. IJTDIAH TERRITORY P0BT0FFICF.3.

Complaints are being received at Postofflce Department from the Indian Territory of the working of the recent decision of Attorney-General Garland, to etrect that Indians are not eligible to appointment as postmasters. Many Indian postmasters, among the seventy-five offices in the Territory, who are reported be intelligent and educated men, have-sent in their resignations in compliance with that ruling. In some places it is found to be impossible to secure white men who are eligible and at the same time competent to till these offices, and it is feared that the service may be disastrously ati'ectcd through -the enforced discontinuance of some important office. A QUESTION OF AGE. An unmarried lady aged between 18 and was recently appuintcd as Eitmistress an Illinois town.

Interested persons have made the pointthat the appointment illegal because she could not give a perfect bond. In Illinois women aro of full age at 18, but under the common law, which, it is asserted, governs in thi3 case, years is the ago of majority. The department, however, has decided that tho lady is eligible, because under the common law sureties for a minor can be held pecuniarily responsible. SPECIAL DELIVERY OX SUNDAY.

McCune and Pratt. Their arrival at Calcutta was reported by the United States Vice-Consul to the Secretary of State.
