The action of United States District At
torney Hay in postponing the case of the
arrested Minneapolis census enumerators
was the cause of an indignation meeting

These facts added to the feeling against
llr. Hay, and there were fears expressed
that he would be influenced in the
matter by his personal feelings. His
relations with President Harrison and
United States Attorney General Miller add
to the sensational nature of to-day's pro
ceedings. The meeting was a thoroughly
'representative one, and those present repre
sented something over $30,000,000 of the
wealth of the city. After hearing- the read
ing of affidavits in which specific charges of
frauds in the census ennmeration of Minne

are made, a petitiou to United States
Attorney Hay was drawn tp and
feigned "by 50 of those present, in
which he was requested to prosecute the
cases without delay. Appended to this pe

davits and attention was called to further
documentary evidence said to be in the
hands of the Government attorney. A'ter
stating that thev are acting in defense of

fact that Congressional and Legislative

in a lair count For reasons given they
ask a vigorous prosecution of the cases.
They further ask that certain complaints
against other alleged offenders be served at
once. It is further stated that the petition
ers are informed by their counsel, who are
assistants to Mr. Hay in these cases, that
the evidence now on hand would speedily
convict of conspiracy. General John B.
Sanborn acted as spokesman, and read
the petition to Mr. Hay, the entire
body having marched to his office
from the Mayor's office. Hon.
C. E. Flandran, ex-Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court, supplemented the petition
with an address to the United States Attor
ney in the same vein. Among others ,this
petition was signed by the following: D.
K. Noyes, President, and A. S. Tallmadge,
Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce;
General J. W. Bishop, H. P. Upham,
President of the First National Bank; O. O.

evidence in his hands, but, regarding it
simply, said that he would "produce it at
the proper time unless it was stolen." The
citizens then returned to the Mayor's office
and held a secret session, the only thing
made public from which was the anpoiut
ment of an executive committee. Thiel's
Detective Agency, of St Louis, through
Captain Williams, .stated that thev could
not allow one of their detectives to be held
as a witness unless an indemnifying bond
were filed to secure them against trouble
and loss. Immediately a bond was signed
and forwarded to St Louis in the
SUM OF TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS. -
Detective John H. Mason makes affidavit
to certain matters in relation to the taking
ol the census of the city of Minneapolis,
and his affidavit accompanies the petition.
It describes the method of operations al
leged to have been adopted, and gives in
stances of fraud. He says he has written
orders rom E. A. Stevens telling him how to
proceed, and further implicates Supervisor
Davenport in the matter. His affidavit is
very long and sires tables showing the
nature ot the alleged frauds in the manner

TSrXClAI. TZLXQXAX TO THX DlSrATCB.1
NewYobk, June 2L From a careful
estimate, made up principally from the
daily reports of the census enumerators,
Supervisor Murray concluded to-day that
New York's population is 1,627,227. There
are still 20 districts that have not been com
pletely enumerated, but the Supervisor has
received reports concerning them which
justify his estimating their population, too.
The actual figures as to the population of
the public institutions have not been re
ceived, but calculating upon the basis of
recent reports as to these institutions he has
fixed their population at 20,000
The entire population will probably foot
more than the figures put down by Super
visor Murray, but he is sure that the popu
lation would be a good deal less than 1,700,
000. The returns in the 20 districts yet to
be heard from have been delaved by sick
ness and failure to work ou the part of
enumerators. In some ot the districts as
many as lour enumerators have been sent to
do the work that one was expected to do.
The returns have been sent on to Wash
ington as fast as they came along, and will
be tabulated there. No returns bv districts
will be made up here. Supervisor Murray
expects to shut up shop next week, but just
what day he does not know yet With 900,
000 for" Brooklyn, a population of over
2,500,000 is shown for the two cities.

Newcastle, Ind., June 21. George
Washington Bunch, a census enumerator of
New Castle, while plying a citizen of this
place with his multifarious questions, to-day
dropped a little book from his pocket
On the first page of the book was a list of in
structions for DjIIini? nurnoses. The person
who picked it up took an abstract of the
headings of the book as follows. Name,
Postoffice, Bepublican, Democrat, National,
Prohibition, Labor Union, Farmers' Alii,
ance, Greenbacker, etc. In all the first
page of the book there were eight
instructions. Instruction No. 4 reads: "In
the column for 'remarks' insert what kind
of literature will reach him." Instruction
No. 8 and the last reads: "Remember that
silence is colden, and be very judicious in
all things."
Evidence comes from other parts of In
diana that this scheme is being worked by
the Bepublican party.
STATE CENSUS A CHECK.
The IoulInnn Authorities Are Comparing
the Federal Returns With It.
rSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TRX DISrATCH.
Netv Orleans, June 21. To-day was
the last day fixed to take the censns in New
Orleans, but the work is far from done.
Supervisor Baldy reports that only half the
enumerators have handed in their lists to
him. The work will therefore be continued
dnrinc next week. The censns of the coun
try districts will also be delayed beyond the
f itne fixed, July 1.
The overflowed condition of some of the
parishes is rendering it a slow and tedious
matter to take the enumeration. The State
censns taken in March as a check on the
Federal one is nearlv completed. It shows
a total of about 1,147,000 lor Louisiana, and
236,300 for &ew Orleans.
OVEE 400,000 PEOPLE.
Even Boston Shows Qnlte a Gain Since
the Censns or 1SSO.
Boston, June 2L The. Globe says that
npon the basis of the census returns already
completed it is justified in announcing that
the population of Boston approximates
417,720, and that the official figures will
vary but little therefrom. This shows a
gain of nearly 55,000 since the census of
1880, and 27,327 since the State census of five
years ago.
HOW TO BUT A H0BSE.
An Experienced Denier Advises a. Week's
Trlnl of Every Animal.
Brooklyn Eagle.
A few days since a man whohas had more
to do with selling and buying horses than
any other man in the country, gave me
what he called an infallible receipt for a
successlul purchase. "The only way," he
said, "for anybody to purchase a horse for
a family's use is on the basis of a week's
trial, and this can be secured if the pur
chaser will go about his work in a sensible
manner. The wild ambition which inspires
most men to buy a good horse lor a small
price is responsible for the most of the un
happy purchases which are constantly com
ing to life.
"A man with an ample income decides to
spend say 5250 for a horse. If a superb ani
mal is offered to him for $255 he will shake
his head at once and declare that he cannot
go any higher than the original sum. Then
he will go out and spend $10 or thereabouts
for luncheon and champagne and subse
quently "buy a horse for what he considers a
great bargain for $248 or $249. What he
onght to do would be to fix upon some
fair and liberal price on the horse,
giving to the dealer a chance to make a lair
commission and then pay for the privilege
of trying the horse for a week, paying there
fore the sum of $1 a day and the board of
the horse at a good livery stable while the
trial is going on. The trouble is usually
that .here is altogether too much larg.iin
ing over horseflesh, and when men begin to
bargain too hotly one of the.i is pretty sure
to get badly lett This is the purchaser, for
he does not know what he's buying.

Experiments Looking; to the Prevention of
Texas Fever That Look Favorable.
St Louis Globe-Democrat
Experiments are now being made at the
Missouri State farm to, test the valne of in
oculating as a rueans of preventing, or at
least mitigating, the violence of Texas fever.
Cattle were inoculated at the station, then
shipped to various poinit in Texas where
they would be exposed to the pestilence.
The experimenters at first found themselves
confronted with many obscure difficulties
and much labor and many microscopic re
searches were required to make any
progress.
At last, however, partial success crowned
their efforts. They now claim to be able to
produce in cattle a fever ot more or less
virulent form that will act as a partial pro
tection against the dreaded maladr. They
can also cultivate the germs outside of the
body ot the beast and reproduce the fever
with this cultivated virus.
They have tried all methods, all kinds of
inoculation, beginning with a mild virus
and proceeding to a more powcrtul and
hope in time to afford complete protection
to the herds. Texas fever epidemics among
cattle may herealter be as rare as epidemics
ol small-pox ; long people.

New Orleans, June 21. Contrary to
expectation there was no vote to-day on the
extension of the charter of the Lousiaua
Lottery Company, and the matter was held
over until Tuesday. On Monday a Demo
cratic caucus will be held and an attempt
made to reach some agreement in regard to
the lottery question that will prevent the
split threatened in the Democratic ranks on
this issue. The lottery men have always
favord this caucus idea, and when it was
proposed to-day by Mr. Harris, an anti-lottery
Ki prres entati ve; they accepted the propo
sition and postponed the vote until the cau
cus conld be held. Senator Lott, anti-lottery
Chairman of the caucus, will not call it, bnt
it will be held without him.
Mr. Morris, for the lottery company, of
fered to-day to advance at once $1,000,000
for levee work and another 1,000,000 in
1892, although the charter ot the company
does not expire until 1891. It is said that
the charge of bribery upon which Senator
Stamant was arrested was made by Gover
nor Nichols himself, and that similar
charges wili be made against other mem
bers who will vote for the lottery bill. It
looks now as though the lottery has the
requisite vote in the House two-thirds to
pass ita bill Tuesday. It will certainly

caucus Monday night

Boston, June 21. Bostonians no longer
will be forced to eat food with their eye
openers and nightcaps. In a test case to
day Judge Balster, of the Eoxbury Dis
trict Court, discharged Thomas E. Connors
who was charged with maintaining a public
bar. The evidence showed that a very
small sandwich was furnished with each
drink, and although the patrons were seated
at tables in conformity to the new regula
tions, the police hanled Connors before the
court
In giving his decision this morning,
Jndge Balster said: "No man can keep a
saloon without being licensed, and one of
the provisions of the license is that the
holder shall not keep a public
bar. In the Connors case I can see
nothing which would indicate a pnblic
bar, and in arriving at this conclnsion
I do not consider food furnished at all. In
my opinion that is not of any consequence.
I therefore discharge the defendant"
Other liquor dealers will take advantage
of this decision to refrain from serving food
with liqnor.

Frank Crouse, son of George Crouse, a
prominent farmer, were in a field hoeing

him instantly." His clothes were torn off
his body.
In one vest pocket he had some silver dol

Lockport, June 21. The waters have
given up their dead. To-day on the beach
of Lake Ontario, just east of Olcott, was
found the body of a woman who turned out
to be Mrs. Beagau, of Niagara Falls, who
committed suicide on June 9 by jumping off
Goat Island and passing over the falls. This
is the first time a body was iound so far
from the river.
It must be nearly 40 miles from the place
where the woman jumped in to where the
body was found ashore. This is accounted
for by the high water and swift current.
The body was badly bruised and much de

rnxss.
Berlin, June 21. During a prolonged
sitting of the Bundesrath, Chancellor.'Von
Caprivi explained the aims of the govern
ment in concluding the Anglo-German
agreement relative to territory in Africa.
Although no official statement has been
issued, the Chancellor's statement to the
Bundesrath is known to bear largely on the
immense importance of the strategic value
of Heligoland. The Chancellor recalled the
fact that during the war ot 1870 it was
necessary to detach a large force to guard
against a possible French landing at the
mouth of the Weser and Elbe rivers and to
lay submarine mines to protect the water
approaches to Hamburg and Bremen, the
trade of which cities was for some time
blocked. Chancellor Yon Caprivi produced
the opinion of General Count Yon Moltke
that Heligoland could be so fortified that it
would be equivalent to a large increase in
the German army in the event of war. The
Bundesrath unanimously approved the
compact and congratulated the Emperor
and the Chancellor, to whose initiative the
cession of the island to Germany by En
gland was due.
GERMANY DEMANDED THE ISLAND.
The reDort that Lord Salisburv spontane
ously offered to cede the island fs in direct
variance with the fact that Count Von
Hatzfeldt handed to Lord Salisbury two
weeks ago a formal demand from Chancellor
Von Caprivi making the cession of the
island an absolute condition of the English
piotectorate in Zanzibar. The English
Government probably will not like to pro
ducohe opinion of military expects on the
value of Heligoland. Here the strategic
importance of the island is universally
recognized. Admiral Henks' paper, written
in 1882, is largely quoted as proving how
greatly the possession of the island
strengthens Germany. Before long Admiral
Henks' idea of a great island tort will be
realized. The opinion of the people of the
island does not count with either Govern
ment. Both know that the islanders are
opposed to annexation to Germany.
PBEFEE EMIGKATION TO GEBMAN EULE
During a former discussion regarding the
cession of the island by Great Britain, an
informal plebiscite resulted in a, deputation
waiting upon the Governor and presenting
him with the unanimous declaration that
every man on the island would prefer to
emigrate to America rather than to com
puisorily become German subjects. The
dread of military service seemed to be the
main objection of the people. The Ger
man customs regulations was a minor ob
jection. The agreement endeavors to mod
ify these objections by giving the islanders
20 years' exemption from military service,
with the same period of exceptional cus
toms privileges. Whether or not these con
cessions will reconcile the islanders will not
affect the cession ot the island, which adds
to the security of a great nation.
OPINIONS OP THE GERMAN PBESS.
The leading Hamburg journals regret the
granting to England of a piotectorate over
Zanzibar because it will paralyze the recently
formed line of German steamers to East
Africa and place the whole trade in the
hands of the English East African Colonial
Comnany, which lately absorbed the Witu
Company, and already claim compensation
for the cession of Wituland.
Major Wissman, who will arive here to
morrow, has telegraphed expressions of his
concurrence with the opinions of his old
Lieutenant, Baron Gravenrenth, to the ef
fect that the surrender of Zanzibar makes
the English masters of East Africa, and
that the surrender of Uganda into the hands
ot tne Hiiigusti gives tbem the key to Cen
tral Africa.
The Hamburger Nachrichten declares
that German commerce in East Africa will
be ruined, bnt admits that the acquisition
of Heligoland balances any loss elsewhere.
England, the Daper says, his doneGermny
a real service to the disadvantage of France,
which always requires to be closely watched.
PLEASED WITH THE COMPACT.
Public opinion, influenced by articles
dilating upon the strategic and naval
value ot Heligoland becomes more and more
pleased with the compact It is probable
that the opposition of France to a British
protectorate in Zanzibar was not overlooked
in the negotiation. The Anglo-French
agreement of 1862, guaranteeing the inde
pendence of Zanzibar was held as lapsed
under the French recognition in 1887 ot the
German acquisitionsjin East Alrica, com
bined with the Britisn treaties with the
Sultan or Zanzibar.
An ominous note was presented to-day to
the Porte by the Russian Ambassador, M.
Nelidoff. It suggests the intention or the
Czar to actively interfere in the Balkans.
The note delivered declines the request of
the Porte that Bussia wait until November
for the payment of the war indemnity bill
of Turkey, and demands immediate pay
ment The note declares that, in the event
of refusal, Bussia reserves the right' of
taking all necessary measures to compel
payment
BULGARIAN AFPAIBS.
Yesterday M. Vulkoritch, the Bulgarian
Envoy, presented to the Porte a note from
M. Stambuloff demanding an extension 'of
religious liberty of Bulgarians in Turkey,
and also demanding a recognition oi the
Bulgarian Government M. Stambuloff is
acting in concert with Bussia without re.
gard to the personal interests of Prince
Ferdinand, the ruler of Bulgaria, and it is
expected that his action will develop a proc
lamation of the independence of Bulgaria,
under a Prince who will be agreeable to
Bnssia, with the absorption ot a part of
Macedonia into Bulgaria.
THE CLERICAL PAKT5T OFFEB A DEAL.
Dr. Windthorst, the leader o" the Clerical
party in the Beichstig, has offered the ad
hesion of his party to carry the military
credits, on condition that the 'Government
introduce a measure giving the Catholics
effective control of their primary schools,
and also that it niodily the army bill by
granting extensive leaves of absence. The
opponents ot the bill calculate upon having
159 votes. It is certain that the Govern
ment will have 154. The fate of the bill
turns upon the vote of the Catholic mem
bers, and the members from the Bhenish
and Westphalian districts, whom Dr.
Windthorst manipulates.

Philadelphia, June 21. Wharton
Barker, President of the Finance Company
of Pennsylvania, a member of the banking
house of Barker Bros. & Co., and the pro
prietor of the Anglo-American Bank, with
$25,000,000 of capital, was arrested
to-day by telephone and through the
same instrument was released npon his own
recognizance. A warrant was issued by
Magistrate Urner, of Norristown, at the
instance of Oliver Perry Smith.who charges
Mr. Barker with malicious mischief for
tearing up a board walk on Wyncote avenue
in Chiitenham.
The writ was placed in the hands of Con
stable Cnster, who served it in the manner
indicated, and a hearing was set lor Mon
day at 4 o'clock 7. m. It seems that Mr.
Smith purchased a house and lot from Mr.
Barker. The lormer tenant, one McCall,
had laid a walk at his own expense past
other premises owned by Mr. Barker. When

Wheeling, June 21. A cloudburst
occurred about four miles east of the city
about noon to-day, and all the creeks in the
vicinity, two of which run through Wheel

Cameron, south of the city, is flooded, and
great damage has been done, though it can
not be learned to what amount Trains
from the East, West and Sonth have been
delayed on account of the washouts and
landslides on the Ohio Biver Bailroad,
about ten miles south of the city. A wash
out made the road impassable. A landslide
near Barnesville, O., has delayed the train
from Cincinnati, dne here at 6 o'clock, and
it is not yet in. Washouts along the Balti

and Grafton. Furniture has been seen
floating in the Ohio river, but Irom where is
not known. The waterfall is one of the
greatest known in years.
Advices from the interior of the State are
to the effect that great damage has been
done to property by the storm. The Balti

The Bepublican majority in the lower

.
tmOM A STAVT COXBISrONDXKT.
Washington, June 21. The result of
the wrong track taken by the Democrats
from the outset of the discussion of the
reference of the silver bill bore its legiti
mate fruit to-day in the breaking up of the
party organization and the trinmph of the
Speaker and his supporters by a large ma
jority. The contest of three days has been
altogether' on the qnestion whether the bill
waa properly referred.
Had the Democrats taken for granted at
the outset that an improper reference had
been made and paid no attention to the rec
ord of the matter in the journal of the
House, but insisted that the bill should be
at once taken up and the question decided
whether the House would concur In the
Senate amendments, the free coinage men
might hare carried the day. Now their
case is hardly a doubtful one.
FREE COINAGE BEATEN.
It is practically certain they are defeated.
The bill is decided to be in the committee
to which it was referred, and not on the
Speaker's table. The party line of the
Democrats is broken more disastrously than
that of the Bepublicans, and the prospects
are that no opportunity will be given for a
vote on the question of concurrence until it
is plain that the anti-free coinage men hare
sure control of the situation.
Notwithstanding their utter rout to-day,
the Democrats and free coinage men are in
very good humor. The turning of the
tables was so complete that the bitterest of
the enemies of the Speaker appeared to be
inspired with admiration for him and his
humorous remark in most solemn tones that
it was possible some of the gentlemen on
the floor of the Honse had discovered that
'riarliamentary law" was not an exact
science, was received with shouts of genu
ine and hearty langbter as fully on the
Democrat as the Bepnblican side.
IMPBOPER LEADERSHIP.
It is generally admitted that the disas
trous rout of the Democrats to-day was due
to the fool leadership of Mills, Bland and
Springer, three men as wholly lacking the
elements of the ideal leader of a parliament
ary body as conld be found in the country.
Their first little victory so flushed them
with importance that they have done noth
ing since but strut about and air themselves
and ask their Iriends if they had not knocked
out Speaker Beed in great style.
Meantime Beed merely waited, certain
that they would get tangled up in their own
vanity berore the end was reached. It is
now believed by the friends of the Speaker
that the bill will be speedily taken up by
the House, and there is no doubt whatever
that the House will refuse to concur in the
amendments of the Senate, and that the bill
will have to "run the gauntlet ot a confer
ence committee, one-half at least of which
will be unchangeably opposed to lite coin
age. It is the opinion of some of the most saga
cious andleast partisan observers that there
will be no silrer bill enacted into a law at
this session.
CONGER'S POSITION.
Chairman Conger said this evening to
The Dispatch correspondent that the
Committee on Coinage would meet on Tues
day and the silver bill would be at once
considered. He was of the opinion that the
bill would be reported back not later than
Thursday. The only way the bill can be
brought up in the House lor consideration is
by a resolution of the Committee on Bnles
making it a special order, and such resolu
tion will be reported as soon as the bill comes
in.
Wheu asked as to the character of the bill
to be reported Mr. Conger said: "Of course
we cannot tell what our committee may do,
but so far as I am individually concerned,
you may say emphatically I am opposed to
free coinage, and judging by the attitude of
the other members of our committee in the
past, I think you may safely say that the
free coinage clause will be stricken ont
Other amendments will be made, bnt I can
not say what they will be. We will not
dally over the qnestion, but will meet it
fairly and squarely early next week."

Washington, June 21. The Federal
election bill will fie considered in the House
early next week. The Committee on Buies
will report a resolution on Monday making
it a special order. There is a division ot
sentiment among the Beonblicans as to the
time to be devoted to the debate. Lodge
and the ardent advocates of a Federal elec-
tion law are In favor of putting the measure
through at once, bnt other prominent Be-
finblicans are of the opinion that the widest
atitude should be given to the debate on
this important "question. The Democrats
will resort to every method of filibustering
to delay its passage, but this will not avail
in the presence of the Bepublican majority.
A circular letter has' been addressed br
the Chairman of the Caucus Committee re
questing every Bepublican to be in bis
seat every day next week, and this is taken
as sufficient evidence that the party intends
to redeem its pledges in its National plat
form by passing the measnres to which they

The Neasnro Will Mow go to a Confer
ence. Washington. June 21. In the Senate
to-day the House bill supplementary to the
act of March 22, 1882, in reference to bigamy,
was taken1 np. -It provides that all fuudi,
or property lately belonging to the Mormon
Church shall be devoted to the use and
benefits of the common schools in that State.
Mr. Butler offered an amendment devoting
the funds to the endowment of institutions
of learning in Utah, and for that purpose
turning them over to the general Board of
Education of the Church ot Jesus Christ
of Latter Day Saints, subject to
rules and regniations to be ap
proved of by the President of the
United States, and not to bemused in dissem
inating, teaching, upholding or propagating
the doctrine and practice of polygamy or
plural marriages.
Mr. Edmunds, in charge of the bill, on
posed the amendment. Mr. Voorhees inti
mated that the Senator from Vermont was
in too great a hurry to get at the results of a
litigation that was not yet concluded.
With that litigation still undecided
in the Supreme Court of the United
States he thought that this was
not the proper time to decide where the
fruits of the litigation should go. Mr. Bnt
ler also argued that the proposed legislation
was premature. No harm could happen if
the matter went over until the Supreme
Court decided' finally about it Mr. Teller
also' favored delay at least untiLMr. But
ler's amendment shall have been printed.
If the Mormon Church could use the money
for proper and right purposes, the Mormon
Church ought to have lit That was the
plain ethics of the matter.
A vote was taken on Mr. Butler's
amendment and the result was, yeas 9, nays
24. Ail the yeas were Democrats and all
the nays were Bepublicans except that Mr.
Payne also voted in the negative. There
was no quorum voting, but Mr. Butler, in
view of the vote taken, withdrew the amend
ment Mr. Voorhees moved to postpone the bill
till the second Tuesday in December next
By that time he said the Supreme Court
would have reached a termination of the
litigation now pending. Mr. Edmunds
opposed the motion and said that the
bill did not touch or affect the
proposition until after the Supreme Court
should have finally disposed ot- everybody's
rights. Mr, Voorhees' motion was not
agreed to yeas, 20; nays, 25. Messrs. Haw
ley, Plumb and Teller voted with the Dem
ocrats in the affirmative, no Democrats
voting in the negative. The bill was then
passed witbont a division. There were
some formal amendments made to it, which
will require a conference.
ATHEISM AND AGNOSTICISM.
Important Pastoral Head Front His
Eml-
nenee Cardlnnl manning.
An important pastoral was at the various
Catholic churches yesterday from His Emi
nence Cardinal Manning, in which, after al
luding to the usual Trinity Sunday collection
for the Diocesan Building Fond, and to the
need of funds, it Is observed: "Among the
people of Israel an atheist would have been
shunned as insane or stoned as a blasphemer.
Is it not, then, a sign of these last days that in
the f nil revelation of God, in the face of Jesus
Christ in the light and the glory of God
In unity and trinity, there should be not only
those who deny the Lord that bought them,
but those alto who will not trouble themselves
so far as to believe or disbelieve His existence?
The passive unbelief of the ignorant or the
gross-minded is as abnormal as the privation of
sight or speech: but the supercilious indiffer
ence of those who will not make np their mind
whether there is a God or no,
or who affect to doubt the evi
dence which has convinced the human
race. U not enough for their scientific. pre
cision. This state is not passive and Indifferent;
It is a positive and active mental habit. It is
also always intolerant and sarcastic None are
so excited against those who believe in God as
those who profess to be neither cold nor hot
believers nor nnbelievers. It were better to be
cold or hot 'He that is not with me is against
me' (Luke il. 23). These things we have said
for two reasons.
"One-half of tbo people can never set their
1 oot in any plice of divine worship. If they
live without God la the world it is not chiefly
by their own choice but by an inherited url
vation. The human soul in all. its miseries,
with all Its assailing sins, is crying day and
night for rest light and healing, for a drop of
water to cool its tongue. 'My people have dona
two evils: they have forsaken Me, the fountain
of living waters, and have dieged to themselves
citterns, broken cisterns that can hold no
water.' (Jeremias ii. 13.) And yet no; it is not
they, but their forefathers that did this deed.
The men of to-day have been born into a state
of privation. Into a dry and thirsty land where
no water is. Every church we build is a
fountain of living water; every altar we raise
is the throne of the ever-blessed Trinity."

and sailed for England.
ntrXCIAL TXLXonAM TO THX DISrATC&t
New York, June 2L Henry Harding;,
an Englishman in good circumstances, came
to this country in 1883 on business. Two
weeks ago he kidnapped his own child in,
Brooklyn and sailed for England. This
closed a strange domestic melodrama in
which an artist's model was the
principal actor. While in New York
the first time Harding met, in the
studio of an artist, a young girl whose
scarcely matured beauty made her a model
much sought after in the studios. Her name
was Jennie Hamilton, and her age was 15.
Harding fell in love with her. Within a
few months they were married. They lived
in New York for eight months, and then
suddenly the young wife disappeared.
ELOPED "WITH AN ABTIST.
It was speedily discovered that she had,
eloped with an artist, one who had formerly
employed her as a model. It was a terrible
blow to Harding. He at once abandoned
his business in New York and returned to
England. He found himself unable to re
main there, and a year later he came back
to find his wife. He did find her. She was
anxious toretnrn to him, and he was glad to
'vskjvc uw auu re-esiaousa tneir nome.
During their separation a little girl had
been born, and all three went to live- in a
Eleasant home in Newark. The home was a
anpy one for three years. Then they moved
to Brooklyn. It was in connection with fur
nishing their new home that the new trouble
began. Mrs. Harding, in purchas
ing furniture, became acquainted with
B. J. Armbeister, who was con
nected with a large furniture
establishment They met clandestinely.
Harding discovered it and again went to
England. After remaining in England
more than a year, Harding came back here,
determined to secure a divorce and get pos
session of his little girl.
When he arrived Harding employed de
tectives to find the couple. Their residence
was Iound in a enrions way. Both Arm
beister and Mrs. Harding were ex
tremely fond of music and they
were singers of no mean ability.
A female detective remembered having
seen among the recent issues of new songs, a
piece of music bearing Armbeister' rather
peculiar name. The publishers reported
that Armbeister was dead, and that bis sup
posed wife had been to them to collect the
money due him with which to bury him.
Later it was found that Mrs. Harding was'
also dead and bad been buried in the same -grave
with her lover. Harding found his 6-year-old
daughter living with hei grand
mother in Brooklyn, and stole her away.
Meantime the deserted wife and children,
Mrs. Armbeister and her little ones are liv
ing humbly in narrow apartments on the
top floor of 143 Lorimer street, Brooklyn.

"How dare you be seen on the street with,
that thing?"
The question was addressed to a fashion
ably attired gentleman who had stopped for
a minute on a popular street corner to con
verse with a richly dressed lady of 35. The
challenger, anrjarentlv favored bv fnrtnn .
in the matter of money at least was of 3
aDoui tne same age as tne gentleman s fe
male companion. The two ladies have for
years been most intimate friends and
have resided at the same house on a fash
ionable street. They have wealth and an
enviable social position, but neither
has been able to secure that which she
prizes above all other earthly treasures a
husband. For years they have engaged
confidences on this, to them, all-absorbing
theme, and have designed snares innumera
ble to entrap the monster, man, but he got
"away. Becently, however, one of
them J succeeded in inducing a
gentleman to call a second time. Elated
with her successsbegnshingly confided all to
her friend, andwhen the gentleman called
a third time she was so enthusiastic as to bs
impndent enough to introduce him to her
friend, who at once began, in-that delicate,
feminine way, to make love to him herself.
The result w'as an invitation for a stroll on
the avenue a few evenings later, with tho
denouement as at first stated.
But it was not actually the denouement.
Lady friend No. 1, after the street scene,
went home but not to bed. She waited for
an hour in the hallway for No. 2 to enter,
and when she came she pounced upon her,
scratched her oountenance, despoiled her of
a well-set of store teeth obtained from
the most aristocratic dentist in the
city, and otherwise maltreated and
despitefnlly used her. Nor was
No. 2 idle meanwhile. After 15 min
utes, in which there were numerous rounds,
she pointed with pride to-a mass of back
hair that cost many dollars, and a $10 pair
ot kid gloves split at the knuckles so as to
show delicate rouge tints on the cuticle it
self. Both hair and rouge had belonged to
her rival.
No. 1 left the honse that night and ha
not returned. At least one large social
circle on the Southside is badly torn up.
