There has been much discussion as to whether the Mayflower will be sailed by General --Paine or not in the international race for the America cup. She will be sailed by Captain Stone, her skipper, a Swamp-scott sailor and a man who thoroughly knows his business. Captain Joe Ellsworth, who was advisory skipper on board the Puritan last year, has been requested to fill the same office this year on the Mayflower. The Mayflower crew will be kept as nearly intact as possible and will be thoroughly trained in the handling of her running rigging and canvas before the race. The Galatea will also drill her men on the New York Yacht Club course.

The Regatta Committee of the New York Yacht Club has issued its circular of instructions for the international races. The first race will take place on Tuesday, September 7th, at 10 a. and will be over the New York Yacht Club course. The second race will be twenty miles to windward or leeward and will be sailed outside Sandy Hook, Thursday, September 9th, at lO :30 A. M.

A race over a triangular course outside Sandy Hook will be sailed should such a race be necessary. The sailing rules of the New York Yacht Club will govern all the races. A DESPERATE COUNTERFEITER, He Escapes from the Officers, hut is Recaptured in a Wheat Bin. Lansing August 30. W.

W. Kanoch, Chief of the Michigan District Secret Service, will take to Detroit, to-night, a counterfeiter named William Wandsor, of Vermont, one of the most desperate men of his stamp in the country. He was captured last night in a barn three miles southwest of Lansing. Wandsor was arrested in the Lansing Postoffice on Friday night, but escaped on the way to the lock-up. He had been boarding for several mouths with G.

C. Allen, under the name of Fred Harris, and was working the State as a wholesale agent for counterfeit coin. In his trunk was found $800 in bogus gold and $1,200 in certificates of deposit on the Lansing Savings Bank. The coin ranged all the way from $1 to $20 pieces, which could not be detected from the genuine, save for their light weight. Wandsor remained in the woods after his escape, until driven into Farmer Weldon's barn by the rain.

The farmer saw one leg beneath the hay, while hunting for eggs, and notified the officers. During his absence Wandsor burrowed down six feet into some thrashed wheat, where he was found after four hours search. He was so weak from suffocation that he could hardly stand, and would have been dead in half an hour more. The detectives from New York have been on his trail for over three months. tion.

The committee will report next Monday evening, when it is thought that a permanent organization will be effected. A.MTJSEMENTS. Baldwin Theater. "Broken Hearts and "Old Love Letters made entertainment of a nature rarely found at the theater for a crowded audience last night, It was almost as if one had dozed over a book of poems and dreamed their ideal characters into an evening's life, "Broken Hearts" is a fairy play, which in its beautiful lines and its quaint conceits carries something the charm tc a grown-up taste that the oid fairy tales holdfor the heart of childhood. It Is entirely uuujue and entirely Gilbertiaiu Its l-athos is as delicate, as gentle and as touching as Miss Annie Russell herself, to whom tha lareer part of it falls.

With her musical voice and pretty speech, her d-licate face And frtimie figure. she eeemed the very Wing of the author's fancy, a spirit like maiden, living in pure love and TtCleJ the first breath of love's deceit. More human, more womanly and verv lovely was Maud Harrison as the La dy Hilda. The beautiful bit of character was beautifully acted, and the exquisite lines rrnd with ntr grace and feeling.

As bis talent has beeu shown to lie in the line of strong-, exacting, robust characters he itrace.ten.lernesS and fleiibiiity of his acting as Priuce Florias was an unexpected revelation. Mr. Ie Movne completed the quartet niwn which the -tion of the piece depend. His makeup as the hid-eot-s dwarf was excellent and ia siiarr contrast to Mr. Mawen's euisrrb appearance as the Prince.

The sale of seats for "The Mikado, the first performance of the Duff Opera Company, begins to-morrow morning. Standard Theater. A rousing greeting assured Billy Emerson last night that his popularity has not fallen off in the least since he last rattled the tambourine on the stage of the Standard Theater. His reception was enthusiastic and prolonged, and en con after encore was demanded of him. when he sang.

His company is not particularly strong. Ad Hymin arid Georee Wood leased the audience, and Mr. Leonard, the ancer, was a success; but the balladist were feeble folk and the others not taleutcd. There were new jokes and fresh stories in Billy Era budget, however, aud he carried the performance very welL Alcazar Theater. Mrs.

Partington and her son Ike have been put into four acts and 10O tableaux of a play which was given at the Alcazar last night. The piece has some funny episodes, but is a weak effort at play-making. The cast Includes Burton Stanley as Mrs. Partington and Gus Pixley as Ike. They seemed to please the atidieuce.

He was received with marked tokens of respect and every one endeavored to mate the evening agreeable to him, he being the most honored guest.

Toward the small hours of the morning there was the usual flow of champagne and numerous toasts were drunk in one of the rooms set apart for gentlemen. A careful investigation shows that Sedgwick, while he undoubtedly participated in the convivial enjoyment of the hour, was in no way treated insolently. The members of the club and its managers strenuously deny that any discourtesy was intended or practiced toward Sedgwick, who made an excellent impression. SPECIAL ENTERTAINMENTS. To set at rest the injurious reports regarding Sedgwick, it is proposed by the leading representatives of the highest society of Mexico to give him a series of dinners and receptions in order to make it evident that he has the esteem of the Mexicans.

Since the rumors became current a large number of entirely ridiculous and unfounded reports have been in circulation, but no person of reputation or standing in the community conversant with matters supports them. Last evening Sedgwick was a guest at a private house at a dinner at which there were present Minister Mariscal of the Department of Foreign Relations and Minister Romero Rubio of the Interior Department. THE CUTTING CASK. Sedgwick is conferring with Minister Jackson and investigating the laws of Mexico bearing on the Cutting case. He is having translations of the laws made, and when he has completed his business here he will go to Chihuahua and then to Paso del Norte.

THE AFFAIR DENIED. In an Interview had this afternoon, Sedgwick, the American special agent, emphatically denied the stories against him now in circulation in the United States. The leading representatives of the Jockey Club, who have been interviewed upon the subject, express 'themselves as sorry that the good name of the club had been called in question. They said that Sedgwick was a conspicuous guest at their ball, and that he behaved as a gentleman should. INTERNATIONAL ROWING.

Trial Heats to Determine Who Shall be the Final Contestants. London, August 30. Portions of the trial heats to decide who shall be the contestants in the international sculling sweepstake on Wednesday were rowed to-day. The weather was scorchingly hot In the first heat Neil Matterson of. Australia and Wallace Ross of Canada were the contestants.

The course was from Battersea to Hammersmith bridge. Matterson had an advantage of a few feet in the first half minute, but before the first furlong had been covered Ross drew up level with him. At the end of the next furlong Ross led by a length, and when a mile and a half, or almost half the distance, had been rowed, Ross was two lengths in advance. Directly after reaching that point Ross almost stopped, and Matterson went ahead and at Putney bridge led by three lengths, Matterson winning leisurely in 18 minutes 41 seconds. After this heat was over, Bubear rowed over the course, scoring a bye.

The course for the second heat was from Hammersmith to Kew. The contestants were John Teemer of the United States and George J. Perkins of England. Teemer was the favorite, 5 to 1 being offered on him. At the start he rowed a rather snatchy stroke, enabling Perkins, who had the best water, to gain a slight lead in the first few hundred yards.

Teemer then settled down to a longer and steadier stroke and soon got on a level with Perkins. Teemer drew steadily ahead and when Barnes bridge was reached he led the Englishman by four lengths. Teemer won eventually without effort, finishing three lengths ahead. Time, 18 minutes 40 seconds. The third heat was between William Beach of Australia, champion of the world, and G.

W. Lee of the United States. The course was from Kew to Hammersmith bridge. Lee led by a couple of lengths for the first quarter of a mile, but after that was beaten. At Barnes bridge Beach drew away and won the heat easily by three lengths.

The betting was lO to 1 in favor of Beach. Twice during the heat Lee got over into Beach's water, and the second time Lee fouled Beach, which the latter claimed and it was allowed. BULGARIA.

THE APACHE WAR. The Hostile Tribes Started for Their New Home in Florida. WlLLCOX (A. August 30. General Miles has at last succeeded in accomplishing the great work of removing the bloody Warm Spring and Chiricahua Apaches from the Apache Reservation to Fort Union, N.

M-, there to await the fiDal disposition of them by the authorities at Washington. Lost month he sent Chotto, one of the most villainous murderers, to Washington with nine others of the leading aud most prominent apostles to confer with the authorities, aud make some terms with them, under the charge of Captain Durst. The enemies of the movement sent a former staff officer of General Crook's there to influence the Indians acains-t General Miles and his plans. The efforts of the opposition rendered the Indians very impudent. Tlifey ore finally ordered to Fort Leavenworth, where Chatto and part of the delegation were to remain, while Captain Dors, with several of the savages, star ted AR uquero to meet the inoe en route iroin Ai-arnev-vpn-leaving, Chatto was very insulting in his remarks.

but Captain Dorst quietly told Chatto that if he did not propose do as General Miles desired, the General would return him to Arizona and turn him over to the civil authorities and let him stand trial before Use Courts like any other murderer. This caused Chatto to weaken, and he and the entire delegation, as representatives of the Apache tribes, sicned an agreement to do as General Miles wUhed and to submit to anything the Government ordered for them. As soon as this was accomplished the General made his preparations for moving the Indians from the reservation. Colonel Wade has Immediate charge of the movement and has been for several days quietly rounding up the I ndians. To-dav he reports the entire success of his work, and he now has 440 Apaches in the post at Fort Apache, and so well guarded by troops that it will be almost impossible for any to escape.

There they await transportation for the children and baeeage. Their ponies and other stock will be driven overland to Fort Union by the soldiers and squaws. This leaves the few hostile now out with Geronfmo without any harbor of refuge, and cuts off his supply of recruits and squaws, leaving him out in the wilds of Mexico wounded, worn out, discouraged, making it a question of a very short time when he will ave to surrender. The latest news from Geronimo, by courier, dated from Captain Lawton's camp, near the Junction of the San Bernardino and Bavispe rivers, is that Geronimo and a band of twenty-seven are now in Lawton's camp suing for terms of surrender. It is certain they will all be brought in.

BLOODY WORK. A Man Badly Slaal ed ia as Stabbing-AfTray near Chico. Chico, August 30. About 5 o'clock last evening, on the Rcavts ranch, Leonard Shouse severely, and, it is thought, fatally stabbed Irving Osborne. The cause of the difficulty is unknown, but Osborne was drunk and somewhat abusive.

He received a deep cut on the left temple four inches in length, two severe cuts in the armpit, one in the shoulder-blade, one on the left side which touched into a rib, a flesh wound across the back some five inches in length, and several othtr scratches where the knife had penetrated but slightly through the clothing. Shouse has disappeared to avoid ar-rVst. A warrant has been sworn out against him charging him with cutting with intent to kill. ALLEGED CRUELTY TO A CHILD. Repectable People Charged with Abns- Ina; a Foster Daughter.

Sax Jose, August SO. Nathaniel Hunter, Secretary of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, to-day filed a petition for letters of guardian hip of Jennie E. Perkins. September 17th was the day set for hearing the case. Jennie Perkins, who is now 14 years old.

was adopted some seven years ago by Mr. and Mrs. E. Ackley, people of good repute then residing in Alameda. I tely the family removed to the vicinity of Los Gatos.

since which time the girl has complained of cruel treatment at the bandsof her foster mother. About two weeks aeo she was permitted to visit friends in this city, and last Wednesday was taken to the depot that she might return to her home. It appears, however, that she went to San Francisco instead and placed herself under the protection of Secretary Hunter, and nothing was learned of her whereabouts until his arrival to-day. The general impression at Los Gatos is that the girl has good cause for leaving. DEMOCRATIC COKVLTTI TIONS.

Delegates from Placer County to the State Convention. Placervillk, August SO. The Regular Democratic Convention met to-day. There was a very large and enthusiastic gathering. The previous action of the Central Committee was indorsed and eight delegates to the State Convention were elected.

The five previously selected were re-elected and three others were selected, who left this afternoon for Sacramento, to be at the convention to-morrow. The delegation now consists of F. Hofmeiester, J. Uilir.ure, J. H.

FAIR AT MARYSVH. Inportations for the Largest Exhibit Ever Held Here. Martsvtlls, August Active preparations for the District Fair which opens here tomorrow are being made to-day in all departments. All the stable-room at the fair grounds is taken, and it will be necessary to build a great deal more, but the demand for room can hardly be supplied. The rush exceeds all expectations and the like was never seen before in the district.

The same is true at the new Favilion: though supposed to be amply large or all demands which might ever te made upon it, the space will be limited. The fair will be the lareest and most successful ever given in the district. The quality and quantity of the exhibits exceed all previous efforts. Crowds of people began to arrive yesterday and have continued to arrive all of to-day. BATTLING WITH THE FLAMES.

At a meeting of the merchants of this city this evening a committee was appointed to arrange a plan for the organization of a Board Of Traae. or Merchants' Mutual Protective Asaocia- Everything in the Meeting To-Day. Candidates Who Will Not Refuse a ITomination. Ex-Senator Hearst "Will 'Not Accept a Governor Stoneman Declines Being a Candidate. Political Talk About Probabilities and Chances: The Meeting to Convene in Odd ''il-lows Hall at 1 O'Cloek This Aftf r- noon Election of a Kew County Committee.

Every train that arrived in the city yesterday was loaded with delegates, candidates and their friends. By noon the Lick and Palace Hotels, the two great centers of political activity, were crowded with busy, pushing throngs. In the evening two diverse currents ebbed and flowed through the portals of the Lick House, and poured out on the sidewalk. Generals, Colonels, Judges, Senators and men of all grades elbowed one another, and talked up the good points of their respective favorites. The main currents vibrated between the Lick, Palace and Grand, while smaller streams branched off to the Buss House and the Baldwin.

M. F. Tarpey sat in his rooms in the Lick, broad-chested, jolly and hopeful, greeting friends and foes alike, with never-failing good-humor. He said "I am in the fight to win, and if I don't I'll do all I can to elect the man who does." His sanguine spirit inspires his friends with enthusiasm, and they are not backward in urging his claims. In rooms alongside sat Senator Reddy, calm and confident.

The one-armed Senator presents a striking figure, with his deep chest, massive head and silvering Burnside whiskers. His friends are full of seal and and press their favorite with enthusiastic eagerness. The mountain men have a weakness for lounging in and out of Reddy's and Tarpey 's headquarters, and groups of them can be found in either place at any time. Ex-Congressman C. P.

Berry was working quietly but earnestly" at the Buss. In appearance he is the typical farmer, -but the keen, alert look on his strong face shows him to be wide awake. Naturally the farmers gravitate to his rooms. Ex-Mayor Bryant held a levee in his rooms in the Palace all day yesterday and up to a late hour last night. His gruff, cheerful voice was constantly heard greeting some country delegate, as his tall form towered above the crowd surrounding him.

Occasionally Mayor Bartlett would be seen moving about through the swarming hotel corrdors. His full fltomaeh, well-fitting black clothes, silk hat aud short-cropped, gray beard gives him the appearance of the regulation city professional man. Imperturbable and sharp-sighted, the Mayor knows what be is about. The sturdy figure of John Q. Brown, Mayor of Sacramento, was seen occasionally, but he did not seem to be making a personal fight, though he has some strong and ardent friends.

Governor Stoneman has positively announced that he will not be a candidate, but is watching the course of events with an interested eye. He has visited several the prominent candidates in their quarters. He says, while not a candidate himself he is glad to re so much interest displayed, as it is ineative of confidence in Democratio success. Senator Hearst's positive refusal to be a candidate has set" several delegations i -ee from pledges and has started a lively scramble for the unclaimed votes. Among the counties that voluntarily pledged their delegations to Mr, Hearst are Humboldt, Ventura, San Benito and San Luis Obispo, while a number of other delegations came with the understanding that they were to be for him in case he desired the nomination.

All these are now free to follow the bent of their individual inclinations. No organized fight seems being made for Ryland, Curtis and Murphy, the other gubernatorial possibilities named, and it is hardly likely that either one of these gentlemen is particularly seeking the honor, although it is acknowledged that they are all able and strong men. Unquestionably there is a strong element of doubt in the contest. The great body of the delegates only arrived yesterday, and opinions in regard to their preferences were, in many instances, mere guesswork, as the friends of two or three candidates would be found claiming the same delegation. If every man had all the votes claimed for him there would be over a thousand in the convention.

As it stands, there is a large body of the delegates practically unpledged, and many seem undecided as to which way they will vote. Out of the one hundred and seven San Francisco delegates over 200 are claimed for four candidates. There seems a strong disprsitiou to look before leaping, and the general desire for a Sopular ticket has had the effect of making elegates cautious about giving pledges. Another thiug that adds to the element of uncertainty of the Gubernatorial contest is that a number of delegations have favorites for minor offices, and their action will be largely controlled by the treatment accorded local candidates. It is certain that in this convention no one section of the State will be allowed to carry off all the best offices, as was done in the Republican convention.

One deleeate from the north said to the Examiner reporter: The Republicans only gave the First District one petty nomination, and for that they selected a man from one of the smallest and most out-of-the-way We don't propose to put up with that here; we want a ticket representing all sections of the State." Mayor Bartlett declines to make any estimate of his probable strength, which appears to be largely an unknown quantity. Tarpey also says he proposes to count no chickens till they are batched, but he has Alameda's 25 votes sure besides strong friends scattered around in several other counties. Reddy's friends claim for their candidate various numbers ranging from lOO to ISO. Berry expects to get from 130 to 140 on the first ballot, Bryant thinks he has got over 1O0 sure. The same doubtful element is perceptible in regard to the Congressional and minor offices, though in two or three districts the chances all appear to run one way.

Marion Biggs has opened headquarters ia the Russ House and is making a determined fight for the Congressional nomination in the Second District. Hugh J. Corcoran and A. T. Vogelsang, the two Stockton candidates for the same place, are also on the ground and are working like beavers.

C. II. Randall of Sonora came down last night with the Tuolumne delv gation, consisting of Dr. J. Walker, Judge Rooney, F.

D. Kicol, Frank Gross and James McGowan. The Tuolumne men will present the name of either Randall or Kicol to the convention. Both are clever speakers and good stumpers. Senator Filcherwas busy last night looking out for the Railroad Commissionership now held by G.

J. Carpenter. He said he thought his chances excellent. Frank P. McCray of San Benito has sprung into the fight forthe Surveyor-General's position against O.

15. Miller. Ex-Supcrvisor Jefferson O. James has entered the race against D. J.

Oullahan for the State Treasnrcrship, and is making a vigorous contest. It is admitted that both candidates are strong men. The Colusa delegation will present the name of Edmund Swineford for Attorney-General against W. D. Grady of Fresno.

Frank T. Baldwin "of Stockton and W. W. Kellogg of Plumas are also in the race for the nomination. D.

B. Woolf, Clerk of the Supreme Court Commission, is disputing with J. D. Spencer for the Supreme Court Clerkship. F.

B. Whiting of Plumas has set up in opposition to John P. Dunn for the Coutrollership. Appearances indicate the nomination of Judge Jackson Temple of Sonoma for the Supreme bench without serious opposition. Judge McKee's friends are making a wtrong fight for his renomination, and Byron Waters comes from the southern counties with a stout following.

Judge Niles Searls and Jr.dge Armstrong of Sacramento, two able jurists, bare many friends, while Judges Sullivan and Toohy of this city are pushed with vigor. Sacramento candidates will be affected by the decision of the convention in regard to the two contesting delegations. The County Committee appointed a set of delegates, but a minority calif for a primary election, which resulted in sending the following delegation: Fred Cox, N. G. Curtis, James Caples, A.

C. Hinkson, I. Townsend. M. Wise, R.

Singleton, J. Black, J. T. Carey, C. R.

Parsons, C. Deterding, J. Givens, M. Paul, Miller. The first two are among the delegation sent by the County Committee.

As Secretary of State Thompson has entered the fieht for Congressional honors in the First District, his present office appears to lie between St i Prison Director Hendricks and W. A. Set-kirk. Wra. Mclfann of this- city, whtwe name has been mentioned In connection with the place, says that he is a candidal "He Shrievalty Official List of Those 17ho fill Choose the Democratic Standard-Bearers.

Every boat and train that arrived in this city yesterday brought delegates from the interior counties to the Democratic State Convention. The consequence is that the hotels are crowded with guests. The scenes around the various hostelries are remindful of the late Encampment, people hurrying to and fro with valise in hand, and crowding arovnd the hotel counter to register. The delegations of the different counties have no particular headquarters assigned them, and the consequence is that as soon as a delegation arrives they separate, and all go to different hotels. They will, however, in a majority of the cases, all be properly quartered by this morning.

A large number of the delegations have their headquarters at the Lick House, and the halls aud entrances to that hotel were completely blocked with people yesterday. The Mariposa and San Benito county delegates are quartered at the Grand. The Alameda delegation prefers the Lick, where Mr. Tarpev holds out. The Butte county delegates arrived yesterday, and will have their headquarters at the Russ House.

Accompanying the delegation is Major M. Biggs, who is making a strong fight for the nomination of Congressman from the Second District. The delegates met yesterday at bead-quarters aud organised. George II. Crosctte of Chico was elected Pivsident.

C. F. Jones and George Herbert were appointed as a committee to confer with the other delegations to ascertain how they stand for the nomination of a Congressman from the Second District. Two of the Plumas county delegation arrived and are quartered at iiie Lick. There were four delegates elected from this county, bnt only two have arrived, they having the proxies of the other elected delegates.

TXe Lick ia the headquarters of the Sierra delegation. Three of this delegation arrived yesterday. Seven Nevada county delegates arrived yesterday and the remaining three will be here this morning.

Georor Stoneman. San Francisco, August 30, lsssi. THE CONVENTION HALL. A Magnificent Appartment Appropriately Arranged. Probably a better selection, all things considered, could not have been made for a place for the holding of the convention than Music Hall, in the Odd Fellows' Build-ing.

Though not as large as some others which might have been chosen, yet its excellent acoustic properties, good light and excellent ventilation render it far superior to those other halls whose good points are represented almost altogether by their large size. The hall will accommodate 1,500 people, 900 upon the main floor, while in the galleries, which are reserved for spectators, room will be found for 600 more. The delegations are to be arranged upon the floor in the order of their numerical importance, San Francisco nearest the stage, Alameda next, and so on. The hall has been decorated in an artistic and elaborate manner. The rear of the stage is embellished with two life-size bust pictures of President Cleveland and the deceased Vice-President, while toward the frout is a large painting representing a workman standing before an anvil, surrounded with the motto, "Economy and Reform," and a wreath of American flags.

Around the gallery are shields and banners of a neat design, and the different delegations will each have an elegant silk banner displayed in the varions parts of the hall, where they are seated. The decorations were all arranged under the supervision of Messrs. Jackson and Van Praag. COUNTY COMMITTEE. Members Elected from a Number of Assembly Districts Last Evening-.

A terrible explosion, occurred in Fairlawn colliery this morning which resulted In the death ol four men, while two others were seriously injured. John H. Hosie and J. Gallagher were standing at the head of the slope at the time of the accident, and felt the force of the explosion as the rush air came out of the mouth of the mine. They at once started to go in and ascertain the extent of the damage.

The August quota of coal had been mined and no men were employed In the mines. Word came, however, that a party of five or six men had gone- into- the mines to clear up their chambers. Mine Inspector Blewitt happened to come along about this time and he and Gallagher with a party entered the mines, going down to the third or lower vein and then followed the air eonrse, stopping to repair damages to the brattices, as hey went along. Their progress was necessarily slow and the course they followed took them to the right-hand side of the mine. They came at last to a point where they found repairs necessary and returned to the foot of the slope for material, when they learned that groans had been heard in the east gangway.

THI RESCUE. They worked that way and found a party who gone into the mines before the accident near or about the entrance of one of the chambers, a Short dietBe from the foo incline, ahont J50 feet from where the heading branches off. Three of them were alive and three were dead. The killed were Hugh Connors of Belleview, Edward Ganghan and Michael Pryle. The first man broueht to the surface was John Nafin, who is badly burned about the face and arms.

John Kerrigan was alive when found, and talked the strongest of all, but he died before being brought to the surface. The next was Connor. He has two large scalp wounds, a bad tut on knee and another on the arm. His face and hands are badly bruised. He was taken to the hospital.

The body of Edward Pierce, the fire boss, was found about 150 feet from there. A DREADFUL SITUATION. They had waited there in the blackness of Sight, sick, wounded and helpless, with their dead comrades lying near them. At last they heard voices, and Connor called. Presently the Toices came nearer, then they saw lights approaching, and soon the rescuing party were with them.

The position in which the bodies were found tears out his statement. He could not tell Whether Pierce ignited the gas, or whether it Was ignited by their lamps. The explosion tune Tike a flash, too quickly for any one to tell anything about it. They had no reason to expect to find any gas there. How the fire originated is a mystery.

THE PRESIDENT. Be Goes on a Hunting: and Fishing: Excursion in the Wilderness. Earakac Ikn, Adirondack (N. August 80. The President's party left this morning for the upper lake region for a few days hunting and fishing in that remote territory.

With them went Colonel A. H. Belo of the Galveston and Harry W. Brown of Philadelphia. The steam launch Nellie conveyed the party down the Saranac lake to Sweeney's Carry, where a long jaunt across the country awaited them.

It is not yet determined whether Mrs. Cleveland and her mother will go into the woods or await the return of the party at one of the hotels on the edge of the wilderness. In all probability they will make the venture, as Mrs Cleveland has expressed a desire to rough it with the others. But few ladies who come aere have the courage to undertake such a jaunt in the woods. The party will not return before the latter Bart of the week.

The guides took Major, a cotch deer hound a famous hunter in this region and other dogs will be procured for the chase. A score or more of the guests at the Earanac Inn gathered at the wharf and waiyed An adieu to the voyagers. Nathan Straus of New York, who entertained the President at his cottage on the Lower Sara-pac last year, called on Mr. Cleveland just before his departure. The party has gone beyond the reach of telegraphic communication and may not be heard from until they return.

Benjamin El-well, a well-to-do and aged farmer, living three miles south of this place in the township of Sumpter, was the victim of a daring robbery. Last Saturday at midnight Mrs. Elwell awoke with a choking sensation and immediately awakened her husband, who detected fumes of chloroform in the room. He then attempted to leave his bed, cut received a sharp blow on his head, coupled with a threat of instant death if he made any outcry. The burglars, two in number, then bound and gagged Mr.

and Mrs. Elwell, and later possessed themselves of a tin box containing $850 in Elwell had been carefully hoarding for years. The burglars then demolished a trunk in the same room, securing $900 in valuable papers, bonds, etc. After warning the couple to make no outcry the robbers left.
