NUMBER 33(5 WYOMING DEMOCRATS MEET, They Arc in Session at Kock Springs Tta Afternoon. , , Rock Springs, WTyo., July 27. The dem--: ocratic state convention was called to order at noon today by Collin Hunter, chairman of the democratic state central committee. The convention will nominate a governor, the one congressman to w hich the 6tate is eai titted, a supreme judge, and three presiden. tial electors. The campaign will be made on local and state issues', and the platfonf will contain a clause pledging the party t use its influence toward the breaking up of what is known as the "Cheyenne cattle ring." It is claimed that wealthy non-resi-- r dent cattle owners have controlled the legis, lature for several years, and that the laws enacted under this regime have been detrt mental to the best interests of the state and calculated only to increase the wealth of the cattlemen, and to tighten their grasp ou tha resources of the state. After disposing of the formal part of their work the convention adjourned until tomorrow, when the nomi-nations will be made. ,1i FILIBUSTERED THE TIME AWAY. The House Transacts no Business and Hangs up the World's Fair Measure. Washington, July 2T. The house re-sumed consideration of the sundry civil bill. The first action was a vote on the motion made by Rankbead yesterday to reduce the appropriation for the World's fair from to $5. The motion was defeated by a vote of 00 to 113. Action recurred on Eingham's motion to concur in the senate $5,000,000 appropria-tion. Holman seeing the vote against him, changed in error to move to a reeonsidera- - tion of the vote, which was then anuounced as seventeen for the fair appropriation and 150 against. Holman moved to reconsider. Bingham moved to lay that motion on the table. Filibustering then began. Outhwaite, pending the vote on Bingham's motion, moved to adjourn till Friday. Bai-ley of Texas amended to adjourn until Sat-urday. The house refused to adjourn by a vote of 33 to 143, and the point of no quorum was raised. Bingham moved a call of the house. The vote on adjournment shows the World's fair men to lack twenty-tw- o of a quorum. The tilibusterers are fighting and ordering a call of rolls. Later The house adjourned leaving the World's fair matter hung up. . EXPLOSIVES TO BE USED. Last Resort of the Homestead Striking Union Men. A VERY FISHY TALE FROM CHICAGO. In Case the Strike Fails Dynamite Will be Placed in the Mills and Touched Oft Chicago, July 27. A Homestead special says it is evident that the Carnegie company is able to operate its mills under the protect tion of militia, but there are other means of fighting, according to a mtmber of the advisory committee, who said: "We will not under any circumstances, permit those mills to run, if there is any agency which may be employed to prevent it. Wre have already selected men who will go into those mills as fast as they ean secure employment, who are instructed and sworn to carry out our orders in the consummating policy which we have agreed upon. When we are sure there is no longer any hope for us our representatives in the mills will place explosives where they will do the most harm to the machinery. We Lave def-initely determined that these mills shall not be operated by non-unio- n men and one of the principal ways to prevent it is either to control or wreck the property. I might say a great deal more, but under the circum-stances I have gone as far as I dare." WHY BISMARCK BESIGNED. Because the Emp?ror Gave Himself Over to the Centrists. KICKED ME OUT, SAYS THE PRINCE. "Are Yon Going to Dictate My Very Bill of Fare," Disdainfully Asks the Emperor. Gkneva, July 27. The newspaper Gene-voi- s publishes n statement made by a friend of Bismarck's, whose name is not revealed. The friend says he entered Bismarck's study on the day of the rupture between the prince and emperor. Bismarck was trem-'.Wn- g with agitation and walking the room, muttering imprecations. Bismarck "The emperor kicked me out mitbont consideration; me, the greatest ser-vant of his grandfather and his father." When he became calm, Bismarck d that the emperor had announced his Intention to attend the fete to be given by l'r. Wiudthorst, the centrist leader. Bis-marck begged the cinperor not to go, say-tli-his presence would be regarded as con-demnatory of the attitude of the chancellor in the eyes of the centrists, his bitterest enemies. While it would cause great satis-faction to the enemies of the era. ieror and be an overt repudiation of tliu chancellor. The emperor answered brusquely, disdainfully stamping his' foot. "Are you going to dictate my very bill of fare?" he a?ked. Bismarck replied: "Then I must resign." " accept your resignation," said the em-peror. "You may retire. Send me your resignation in writing." MOST FLIMSY PROSECUTION. A Jew Who was Accused of Killing a Boy for Ititual Purposes. Bekmn, July 27. The long drawn out prosecution of Buschoff, a Jew residing at C'leves, and who was recently accused of having murdered a Christian boy for ritual purposes, has at last come to an end, and the absurdity of ever having brought charges against the man is now apparent, even to tiie most violent of the anti-sciniti- c party w ho are responsible for w hat has turned out, to he a disgraceful prosecution of an inno-cent man. The dead body of a boy named Hegemann was found in a stable about two months ago, and it had been mutilated in a way that sug-gested some anatomical knowledge ou the part of the murderer. The discovery caused intense excitement in the town, and suspi-cions fell on the Jewish butcher, Buschoif. 'I he case was taken up in the most violent manner by the anti-Semiti- c agitators, who roundly alleged that the boy had been mur- - At.r-ti- in order that his blood might be used for Jewish ritual purposes. This charge was repeated in public meet-ings, and in pamphlets which were distribu-ted broadcast. Buschoif was arrested and brought to trial, and after a prolonged in-vestigation he was released, the evidence against him being insufficient. A month later after the popular agitation had reached an extraordinary pitch, he was rearrested, the police having obtained fresh evidence, and he was eventually sent for trial before a jury. The proceedings were prolonged. The number of witnesses for the prosecu-tion was ninety-nine- , while eighteen came forward for the defense. Upon the prisoner being called upon by the judge to say whether he was guilty or not, Buschoff declared in the most emphatic terms that he was guiltless of the crime im- - pitted to Ijim. The presiding judge in open-ing the proceedings pointed out to the jury that the sole motive put forward in the in-dictment was that Buschoff desired to take revenge on the hoy because he had damaged some Jewish gravestones. The evidence brought forwrard by the prosecution was of so flimsy a character that the jury, although containing several who were known to be in sympathy with the anti-Semit-party, was obliged to acquit the j prisoner. TO STEP DOWN AND OUT OR NOT. Lord Salisbury Considering the Case with His Ministers. Los dox, July 27. Political Interest today centers in the small room in Downing street w here Lord Salisbury and his ministers are considering whether it would be more dig-- s nified for them to hand in their resignations or to wait for the liberal majority to oust j them. Salisbury's habitual stubbornness i has given ground for the opinion that the I ministry will hold on until forced out by a vot of censure, and as a result of Gladstone's small majority, and the heterogeneous nature of his follow-- : ing it is quite possible that the present min istry may continue indefinitely. Parliament ; will assemble early in August, and nothing is likely to be known of the policy of the government until that time. The Right Hon. Arthur Wellesly Peel, though a union-ist, will undoubtedly be elected speaker of ine cuiumuut). ..iiiujr ui tue irisn national-ists are said to oppose Peel on ac-count of the firmness with which he treated them in the early dp.ys of Salisbury's administration. Gladstone himself, however, is looking forward to the time when be will be in power, and knows that to curb the tory opposition he will need a man thoroughly acquainted with parlia-mentary procedure, and one who can and will apply the closure frequently and to ad-vantage. Peel is a thoroughly impartial man, and if re elected he will bring the tory and unionist minority to time with as much vigor as he has shown in goveruing the liberal opposition during the past six years. THOUSANDS OF CHOLERA DEATHS. The Dread Scourge Advancing Toward St. Petersburg and the Interior. St. Petersburg, July 27. According to an official bulletin 2055 cases of cholera and 1172 deaths occurred in the Infested districts of Russia on the 22nd and 23rd inst. It is feared that cholera will soon appear here if warmer weather continues. The death rate along the Volga is really greater than supposed. Saratofif, Listock, reports 252 deaths in Saratoff on the 14th. Trade along the Volga is at a standstill. Vienna, July 27. The preventive meas-ures ordered enforced in Western Russia have not been executed ow. ing to the prevailing panic, although cholera has appeared at Ekaterino, Stav, Odessa and other places. Arrange-ments for the great military maneuvers near ' Charkoff will be cancelled. Large quan- - ' tities of disinfectants have arrived at I Constantinople for eaucauslans, but cannot proceed owing to the fact that no ships can be chartered for Russian ports, j All ports on the sea of Azotf are affected with cholera, and it is expected the disease will soon appear in Western Crimea. j Crazy Rank Clerk Kills Three People. Polmont, Scotland, July 27. James Fra-- ; zer, a bank clerk, ran amuck with a sword last night. Rushing into the house of a ' neighbor he hacked him to death, fatally wounded his wife and then ran- - into tho j street and killed a young woman. He was I captured after a desperate struggle. It is believed that he is insane. Fatal Accident in a Paris Theater. Paris. July 27. During the performance of "Rueil" last evening an accident occurred I by which eighty ot the audience were se- - verely injured. The seats which were ar-- ', ranged in tiers broke down, precipitating I hundreds in a mass of debris to the ground. ! The bolts had been loosed by some unknown miscreant. Kussia Pays for Conspirators. I Sofia, July 27. The Svoboda publishes a ' dispatch which it claims was sent by the j Russian government to its minister at Bu- - charest ordering him to pay $10,000 to the j plotters concerting plans to murder Prince 1 ierdinand, ruler of Bulgaria. BROWNING'S MARRIAGE. Wordsworth Thought the Two Might Un-derstand Each Other. Temple Bar. When Wordsworth heard of the marriage of Robert Browning to Elizabeth Barrett, he remarked in his dry, level tone, "Doubtless they will speak more intelligible to each other than they have yet done to the pub-lic." Wordsworth was an old man when he uttered these words and unlikely, being the age he was, to accept any new message of poetic inspiration, especially if conveyed in an unaccustomed form. Even forty years earlier Coleridge had complained that Wordsworth desired to make modern poetry sectarian, with limitations fixed by his own dogmatism. - At no period, perhaps, of his life would he have had eyes to see the dawn of anv "new morning" other than that the glow of the "Lyrical Bellads" had brought upon earth, dispelling by their natural colors the cold and rigid forms of classicism. But, allowing for a certain narrowness of vision on the part of Word-sworth in saying what he did on the want of intelligibility, he but echoed public opinion regarding the poetry of Browning at the time. Miss Mitford, the literary gossip of the period, and at the same time the most inti-mate friend of the poetess, shares Word-worth- 's views with respect to the author of "Paracelsus." In a letter to Charles Boner she writes: "The great news of the season is the mar-riage of my beloved friend Elizabeth Barett to Robert Browning. J have seen him once only, many years ago.He is, I hear from all quarters, a man of immense attainment and great conversational power. As a poet, I think him overrated. Those things on which his reputation rests, 'Para-celsus' and 'Bell and Pomegranates,' are to me as so many riddles." Miss Mitford, had she lived on to the last decade, "doubtless would have joined the Browning society and escaped the danger of being strangled by the Sphinx. In another letter to the correspondent she writes: "1 was at Miss Barrett's wedding! Ah, dearest Mr. Boner, it was a runaway match ; never was I so much as-tonished. He prevailed ou her to meet him at the church with only the two necessary witnesses. They went to Paiis. There they stayed a week. Happen-ing to meet with Mr. Jameson, she joined them in their journey to Pisa; and accord-ingly they traveled by diligence, by railway, by Rhode boat anyhow to Marseilles, thence took shipping to Leghorn, and then settled themselves at Pisa for six mouths. She says she is very happy. God grant it continue. I felt just exactly as if 1 had heard that Dr. Chambers had given her over when I got the letter announcing her marriage, and I found that she was about to cross to France. I never had an idea of her reaching Pisa alive. She took her own maid and her dog Flush.- - I saw-M-Browning once. Many of his friends and mine William Harkness, John Kenyon and Henry Chorley speak very highly of uiui. i suppose ne is an acconip nencd man, and if he makes his angelic wife happy, I shail of course leurn to like him. . . WHERE JUSTICE REIGNS. The Sensational Harvey Divorce Case Still on Trial. SHE HAS AN INHERITED APPETITE. That is What the Defense Claims Mrs. Harvey's Desire for Liquor Is Before Judge Bartch Court Notes. The trial of the divorce case of Barney C. Harvey vs. Amelia D. Harvey was again the star attraction in the courts today. There was quite a large attendance of spectators, and the proceedings were somewhat sensa-tional. The evidence for the plaintiff was resumed with Alex Grant on the stand, and he was followed by George Walton, AVilliam Davis and William Miller, all of whom testified to Mrs. Harvey's intemperate habits and cited instances. William Davis, a barkeeper at the Yellow Front' saloon, testified to having sold her drinks. This closed the evidence for the plaintiff, and the defense be-gan by calling Mrs. Harvey. She is a middle aged English woman and gave her testimony in the most positive manner, the while glaring at Mr. Harvey, who sat by the wituess box listening attentively. She claimed that her appetite for liquor was in-herited, her motherhaving been a drunkard at the time the wi'.uess came into this world. She also claimed that Mr. Harvey knew of her weaknesses before he married her, and since theu had furnished her with liquor. A portion of this testimony was stricken out. and the witness not allowed to testify as to Mr. Harvey's misconduct. Mr. Dickson took the position that Mr. Harvey trid to reform his wife, and that even if he knew she was addicted to drink before be married her,' he had tried to re-form her since, and his knowledge did not extenuate her or operate against him, Judge Powers, calling attention to the tes-timony that the plaintiff had given the de-fendant liquor, inquired if this information was on the homeopathic "similia sitnilbm curniter" plan, but there was no answer. Mrs. Harvey is being cross-examine- d by Mr. Dickson this atternoon, and Dr. Groves of the Keeley institute, will probably be called by the defense to testify as an expert in regard to the appetite for liquo beiu a disease and hereditary.

Another Matrimonial Misfit. Emma Salkcld this afternoon wiil bring suit for divorce against William S:illteld. The parties were married in 11. aud Mrs. Satteld claims that at all times since she has conducted herself as a dutiful and loving wife, but that the defendant has by no means couducted himself as a loving husband. Indeed, Mrs. Salkeld's allegations, if true, show that he has treated her with great brutalit3", ou occasions strik-ing her in the face and using vile language to her and threatened to kill her. Of late, Mrs. Salkeld says, he has be-come more violent towards her, and has suc-ceeded in making life a burden to her. Be-sides all this, he has neglected to properly provide for herself and her three children. She asks for an absolute decree of divorce, for the custody of her children and for a share of his property, worth $3500. Coad fc Coad are the plaintirTs attorneys. Court Notps. Attorney A. D.

Alfred and Josephine Peterson this after-noon brought suit in the district court against the proprietors of the Templeton hotel to recover $5000 for injuries sustained by Mrs. Peterson through being crushed in the elevator at the hotel on March 20th last. THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE. Sir. J. B. Walden's View on the Saloon Question. Since the last liberal administration came into power, the most prominent question that has come before them has been the sa-loon question, the management of gambling houses and houses of prostitution. Some-how or other their minds have dwelled upon it. The wide difference of opinion that has existed in their ranks upon this question is very well known. Ou the one hand we find Rev. Iliff, McNiece, and other prominent liberals waging a heavy fight against this element, and are being supported cordially by the mayor and his staff of officers. On the other hand we find this element is being strongly supported by the brewers, Judge Powers and the heavy moneyed inter-ests of the city. It surprises me that this matter was not brought up at that distinguished gathering last week, known as the liberal conference, and that it was not fought out on the floor before the meeting adjourned. Both sides acted cowardly in the matter. Suppose Rev. Iliff, for instance, who took a prominent part in that conference, had in-troduced a resolution to this effect: Resolved, That this convention hereby heartily endorses the action of the mayor in closing the saloons m this city on Sundays, and other days he sees fit, and raiding the gambling houses and other houses of vice; aud further, we approve of his action to-ward the city council during his adminis-tration. That would be in perfect keeping with the gentleman's professions, and it would have been a courageous act (from his standpoint ). There is scarcely a religious denomination in the city that has not denounced the present administration for its lack of morality, and it might have been consistent for them to have discussed the proposition at that grand conference. Would not the discussion have been apropos to the proposition, which was, "Shall the liberal party stand together any longer?" On the other hand, would it not have been well for the brewers of the city, assisted by the chief of the party, to have introduced a resolution somewhat to this effect: "Itesotvttl, We denounce the action of the mayor in his attempts tosupress the saloons, gambling houses and houses of prostitu-tion, and that we hereby demand that he resign from his office." No they never did it. Both 6ides played "tag" with each other. My judgment is that if Governor Lett had been elected mayor, these difficulties could have been easily surmouuted to the satisfac-tion of everyone. I do not believe that he would have brought certain members of the city council into disgrace, but on the other hand I believe he would have secured the loyal and support of the entire city administration. It would have been democratic, and there would have been no organization in the council known as the "Big Eight." One thing is certain, and that is the saloon element contributed more to the success of the liberal party in the last election than all other elements in the city combined. "'They have sown to the winds, and have reaped the whirlwind." If this church element will deal in a little bit of retrospection, they will discover the fact that scarcely one of the saloon element cast a single vote for the democratic or republican nominees for mayor. The ministers who peddled tickets at the polls did not support these two most worthy gentlemen. A city run by one party can hope for suc-cessful ends, but when composed of a con-glomeration of liberal republicans, repub-licans, Tuscarora-democrat- s, liberals and democrats' is a case wr here oil aud water m&tr-e&s.- . The (!-- f this-- ity each pay Into the reasury'$1300 a year, the entire revenue from the saloons amounting to f 123,000 a year. All of the other licenses of the city combined do not aggregate one-thir- d of this sum. With such a heavy bur-den, and all of these men with a family to support, they are certainly entitled to a "bill of fare" from the government, and they should get what the bill calls for with-out uncertainty. If they are not then re-duce the license, and if thought best let the liberal party introduce a local option or pro-hibition clause in their next platform. A proper observance of the Sabbath day is what every good citizen should wish for and support, but this tiling of crowding the mourners is all wrong. The liberal conference played "hide and go seek" w ith the people upon this propo-sition, and there is no getting away from it. Its chief actor should have suug them a song before adjournment to the tune of the "Bogie Man," with words fitting the occa-sion. The present situation furnishes a great deal of food for thought, aud will have a telling effect at the pol.s in November. J. B. Waldes. TRIBUNE CRIMINAL LIBEL The Examination of Editors Goodwin an! Kelson Continued, HEDC5J HELD TO THE GRAND JURY. The Day In Police Court A Burglar in the Dog Pound Other Notaa of Crime, The hearing in the case of Judge Goodwin and William Nelson, of the Trihune, on the charge of criminal libel preferred by Marshal Parsons, was to have been held before Com-mission- er Norrell at 2 o'clock this afternoon, but before that hour Judge Powers appeared and asked for a continuance as he was en-gaged in the trial of the Harvey divorce case. Mr. Critehlow, representing tha marshal, consented to this and the hearing went over until Friday. POLICE COIKT. Hedges Held in flOOO Bonds The O.hur Cases Tried. Tom King was put on trial in police court today for having battered up James Nine, a, pr.soner in the city jail, Tom being an in-mate of the same cell. Nine looked like the ten of clubs, ne hal a cut head and a black eye, and a broken, jaw and a battered face. Nine was paralyzed, and Tom took advan- - tage of his helpless condition to beat hin until he was insensible. The officers don't give Tom a very good reputation, Sergeaut Randolph testifying' that he would fight every man he could get get to, and that he never was arrested in his life without making a fight, Thomas testified that he was only defend-ing himself, that Nine told him to put up his dukes and fight. He said it was two hours after Nine was brought in, but Officer Shannon said it was about ten minutes. Tom got twenty-fiv- e days for the assault and five for being drunk, Louis E. Bamberger pleaded not guilty to fast driving, and his case was set for tomorrow at 11 o'clock- - Louis was arrested by Officer Shannon in Liberty park aud waa as mad as a wet hen. He wanted the officer to try the horse and see if he could be driven, fast. The case of Joseph Hedges, charged with an attempt to outrage little Laura Brown, was theu called aud on request of Mr; Eichnor the court room was cleared. Willie Schunder, a boy, was the first witness. He said Hedges was carrying the little girl away and had one. hand over her mouth when two men eaino up aud took her away. Hedges was carry-ing her behind the school house when they come. The littie one was bleeding at tho mouth where Hedges had bruised her. Jesse Burbige told the same story as re-gards the circumstances, with the addition, that he begged to be let go as he had two sisters and it would be the death of them H they heard of this. John Wardrope, the other man who as. sisted in making the arrest, told substan-tially the same tale, which was corroborated by Mr. Brown, the girl's father. "The little girl told a tale that made the w riter of this want to go over and kick all the wadding out of the despicable craven brute. He. grabbed her, she said, and when she screamed he put his fingers in het mouth and said he would choke her to death. He also struck her and dragged Tier back ta the coal shed, saying, "cowie down here a little ways." The poor tot's face and throat were lacerated and swollen.as a result of tha treatment she received. Sergeant Randolph testified that while ha was guard at the pen Hedges served a term for the same offense. He was horsewhipped while there for an attempt to commit rape. He was pardoned out a short time ago. Hedges said that he did not want to testify but wanted a board of doctors to examine him because he was not responsible for hi acts. He W83 held to the grand jury in the sum of $1000. The following other cases were disposed of: Pat Smith, drunk, f5; Thomas King, drunk, ?.; Olof Floden, drunk, $5; P. Mc-Alf-drunk, ?5; Annie Douglas, prosti-tut- e, 30; May Thorn, prostitute, 25. Broke Open the Dog Pound. Some thief without the fear of God in his heart broke open the dog pound last night and stole therefrom one dorg, for which Samuel Galeazzi, dog tax collector, is very wroth and threatens dire vengeance. A spring gun will be placed there hereafter and woe betide the man who attempts to duplicate the offense. For Assault and Battery. John Dudler, who lives near the mouth of Parley's canyon, was taken before Commis-sioner Greenman this morning on the charge of assaulting Carl Dannin, a saloon keeper, yesterday. He pleaded guilty and was fined $10 and costs. FAMINE THAT FOLLOWS FEASTl. Pitiable Condition of the Poor of St. Johns', Newfoundland. . Halifax, July 27. The latest information from St. Johns, N.F., states that the militit still parades the streets to maintain order and prevent incendiarism, which has been attempted. The condition of the poor in the unburned section is worse than those of the bui ned, as they are without means of subsistence and can get none of the relief contributions. They are actually trying to burn their few belongings in order to get help. Seven thousand persons are . en-camped on a large field, their housing being the worst feature at present. There is no want of clothing or food. The coming fall and winter will, it is feared, realile the fam-in- e that succeeds the feast. . f'. DEVASTATION BY RAINFALL. ProsM Washed Away, Cities Flooded Man Killed by Lightning. Her), Wis., July 27. A most destruct-ive wind twd rain storm visited this section last night, lasting twelve hours. It was almost a eloud burst. Cel-lars were flooded, causing much damage to goods; crops are almost totally destroyed in the surrouuding coun-try and much stock was killed by lightning. Advices received from other points is to the same effect. John Warren, a farnaer near New Richmond, was killed by lightning. All trains are delayed by washouts. St. Paul, July 27. The drenching rain-storm which began last evening lasted till this morning. It demoralized street'trame, and it is not all restored yet cellars are flooded, sidewalks washed away and streets torn up. For twenty-fou- r hours ending at 4 o'clock a. m., the aggregate rainfall was nearly eight inches in Minne-auoli- s and nearly five inches here. . LOOKING FOR ANARCHISTS. Police Keeping an Eye Open for the Lepers on the Body Socialistic. Pittsburg, July 27. The police are keep-ing a strict lookout for anarchists, and In-spector McKelvey says Bergman is only a tool of the conspirators; that the anarch-ists are getting ready to carry out gi-gantic schemes, and that an attempt would have been made on the lives of sev-eral prominent citizens. This afternoon two anarchists, Charles Finster and August Tiruopk, of Allegheny, called at the station to see Beauer. They were arrested. It has just been learned that an attempt wks made to blow up e union mills of this city. During the absence of the engineer some one turned ou unlighted gas in the furnaces. Discov-ery of the fact was made in time to prevent an explosion. One hundred and fifty men were in the department at the time and many lives would have been l06t. Beaver says there are 500 anarchists in Pittsburg and 1000 in western Pennsylvania. Frick passed a most satisfactory night. A SOCIALISTIC LABOR SOCIETY. In Session in Pittsburg: to Establish a Bureau. - Pittsburg, July 27. In response to a call issued some weeks ago by the Socialistic Labor Society, delegates from nearly every city in the union, and representing every labor organization of any importance in the country, assembled at 10:30 o'clock this morning at Sailer's hall for the purpose of establishing an intermountain labor corres-pondence bureau. After listening to ad-dresses of welcome on behalf of the local unions the work of organizing the conven-tion was taken up, and the meeting was adjourned until tomorrow. The present la-bor difficulties in this city are acting as a decided impetus to the proceedings, and the . delegates are confident of having their bu-reau' on a paying basis inside of a few months. MISS MITCHELL ON THE STAND. She Relates Her Remarkable Infatuation for Freda Ward. Memphis, July 27. In the trial of Alice Mitchell today for the murder of Freda Ward, the defendant took the stand in her own defense and told the story of the killing substantially as hereto-fore related. She admitted her infatuation for Freda, and said she had tried twice be-fore to kill her, but was prevented once by the razor sticking in her pocket, and once by the publicity of the place in which she found her. She told of her inteuded mar-riage to Freda and how she expected to raise a moustache by shaving. She eclared she used to like Miss Joe Ward, Freda's sister, till she went on the stand and swore to a lot of lies about her; now it w ould not be safe for Miss Joe to thrust herself in the witness' power. Miss Mitchell occasionally gave evidence of the loss of some of her heretofore remarkable , :r O'Donnell Says it Was a Joke. Homestead, July 27. Hugh O'Donnell says he did not authorize the correspond- ents to treat with the Carnegie people with a view to ending the trouble by a surrender of the men.

GOUNOD'S STREET CONCERT. How He and Two Other Musicians Aided a Needy Artist in Paris. A poor, worn-ou- t musician, carrying a violin which he was too feeble to play, was met with in Paris by three young students of the conservatoire. In response to his request for alms they searched their pockets, the united contents of which yielded only 16 sous and a cube of resin. Thereupon, says Temple Bar, one of them proposed to take the old man's violin and accompany the voices of his companions. No sooner said than done. Commencing with a solo upon the theme oi ine "'Carnival or Venice, ' a large con-course of listeners was soon attracted. Then came a favorite cavatina from La Dame Blanche," sung in such a manuer as to keep the audience spell-boun- and yet again the trio from "Guillaume Tell." By this time the poor old man was galvan-ized into life and activity by the artistic performance. He stood erect, and, with his stick, directed the concert with the authority of a practiced leader. Mean-while contributions of silver aud even gold rained into the old man's hat. To his aston-ished and grateful demand to know who were his benefactors he received from the first the name of Faith, and from the others the response of Hope and Charity. "And you do not even know mine," sob-bed the poor musician; "my name is Chap-ner- , and for ten years I directed the opera at Strasburg. You have saved my life, for I can now go back to my uative place, where I 6hall be able to teach what I can no longer perform." The young violinist was Adolph Hermaun, the tenor was Gustav Roger, and the originator of the charitable scheme was Charles Gounod. , . 9 . UTAH COMMISSION.

Pleasures of Falling From On High-Harper- 's Yeung People A famous man, who knows what he is talking about, states that falling from great heights is rather more pleasant in its sensa-tion than otherwise. Mr. Whymper, the great mountain climberv has declared that when ou several occasions while climbing in the Alpine regions he has fallen without los-ing his consciousness, as he bounded from rock to rock in his unintentional descent he felt no pain whatsoever. This is pleasant to believe," but it does not make our falls any the Icbs perilous, and no one has yet said, it must be remembered, that after the fall was entirely completed, the eeusation was de-void of pain. As the Irishman remarked when he fell off tho top of a house: "It wasn't the fall 61' moined. It wua hittin the ground when the fsll wuz over that hurt me feelings and broke me arram." Sure Cure for low Spirits. Philadelphia Times. Take one ounce of spirits of resolution, an equal proportion of the oil of good con-science, infuse into these a tablespooufui of the. salts of patience, and add thereto a few sprigs of others' woes, which grow exten-sively in the garden of life. Gather also a handful of the blossoms of hope; sweeten these with the balra of providence, and, if possible, procure a few drops of genuine friendship, but be careful of counterfeits in the ingredients of self-interes- t, which grows spontaneously; the least admixture of it w ith the abovo would spoil the composition. Reduce the whole to an electuary by a proper proportion of content, flavor with the essencj of good judgment and regulate the quantity according to the vixulenre of the disease. Having tried the above recipe we know it to be au infallible cure. i . i t The Depths of Obscurity. Chicago Tribune.
