General Wheeler will have the sympathy of the entire country in the loss of his son by drowning.

The big crop of wheat, free deliver ies in th Northwest, and prospects of larger receipts until the bulk of the spring wheat is sold, have been having a depressing effect on the price, which was already low.

The Harrisburg Telegraph says : "The speech made by Colonel Stone, the Republican candidate for Governor, at the Republican Club convention, is attracting attention everywhere for its straightforward, manly style.

ItaUia Aaaretilt ""Tamed Lnetheni, Frp trator of th Crima, USED A BTTIZTTO AID EEJ0ICED 15 IT. Kl F.y :vi, Sv itxoriatid, Sept. Id. Klis-a-beth, Empress of Austria, was a xx an ma ted at about 2 o'clock this afternoon as bha was walking from tbe hotel Beaari- vag. where sue had been lunching, to tbe steamboat dock where she intended to take a small steamer to Castle Chillon at TerriteL She was accompanied only by some women of her suite, as abe de lights to go about incognito. As the Empress was passing the Bruns wick monument a man rushed at her and struck ber a violent blow in the chest, which knocked her to the ground. The women of her auiU picked her up, and with the aid of some persons near by car ried her to tbe boat, while her assailant ran away. The Empress waa uncon scious, and the Captain of the steamer did not wih to start, but on the insist ence of tbe women in attendance, who thought her majesty had only been rudely knocked down, he put tbe steamer under way. After endeavoring for some time to bring the Empress back to conscious-' ness the women in attendance were hor rified to discover a little stain of Mood on ber undergarments. The boat was at once put about and returned to the dock. Tbe Empress was carried on an impro vised litter to the hotel. Doctor Golay and tbe Mayor were called, and every thing possible was done to save her Maj esty, but she expired at 3 o'clock without gaining consciousness. An examination showed that she had been subbed to the heart with a three cornered stiletto. After dealing his death I ilow the assassin ran along the Hue Alps, but was caught by two coachmen, who handed him over to a gendarme. lie proved to be an Italian anarchist from Paris, named LuccheuL When arrested be exclaimed: "I have struck welL She mubt be dead. I purposely came to Gen eva to assassinate her." While Europe rings with the news, and words ot vengeance are nuered on all hands, the assassin laughs in a security known to few regicides. There is no cap ital punishment in tbe Swiss oode. An eye-witness of tbe assassination says that as tbe Italian was taken to the station he said boast ingly : "Yes, I did it," and he said seveial times, as he walked alorjg between his captors, "She must be dead." Interrogated in the police station, the prisoner said : "Who am I? lam an an archist, a starving anarchist." "Then you bate mankind," exclaimed the com mis iary Xo," was the reply. "I have no hatred for the poor, only for the rich." After tuat he became less loqua cious. Taken to court and examined by a magistrate, in the presence of tbe po lice and three members of tbe local gov ernment, h. remained silent, indicating by dumb show that he knew no French, which was false. lie also told the magistrate that he came to Geneva to assassinate "another import ant person," but be had been unable to execute the project. The reason of his 'ailure he did hot give, b-t he declared that it was only by accident he had learn ed of the presence of tbe Austrian Em press in Geneva. Only by documents found in his pock ets waa his name learned. These show ed too that he was born in Paris, of Ital ian parents, in 1ST.., and had served in the Italian army. Bryan's Military Glory. The publication of the list of troops to by mustered out of the service and to be etainod until further orders has caused a 1ood of telegrams of protest, and the ar rival in Washington of many officers tnxious to secure a change in the orders. Vt the Adjutant General's office it is -tated that the list, as made out, will be closely adhered to, and that appeals will b'- unavailing. The regiments chosen for retention have been selected with much care and because their services in the near future will, it is feit, be required. One of the regiments which is reported as pro testing most bitterly against being retain ed in the service is the Third Nebraska, commanded by Coionel William Jennings B ryan. II is regi men t !s stationed at J ack sonville as part of the Seventh corps, of which General Fitzbugh Lee is com mander, and which, it is generally un derstood, will form a part of the army of occupation in Cuba. Tbe regiment was raised under the second call, although u t demanded by the Government, and in excess of the quota of Nebraska. It was accepted in response to tbe earnest solicitation of tbe friends of Mr. Bryan, and as tbe result of statements of friends of the administration that to refuse it would be considered in some quarters ev idence ot a lack of generosity on tbe part of the President toward a former politi cal opponent, anxious to obtain military glory iu connection with the war. Iu the organization of tbe regiment the Governor of Nebraska selected as far as possible for otHcars promineut advocates of Populism in tbe various counties, and the bulk of the regiment itself was re ported to consist of those who had voted for its Colonel in the last Presidential election. Very few of the officers or men bad ever handled a musket, even in mil itia training. Tbe first suggestion was that it should be ntilized in garrison fron tier posts in Nebraska, taking tbe place of the regulars who had been sent to Cuba. This was indignantly resente.1 as an in sult to Mr. Bryan, and in order that there kbould be no suggestion of partisanship, as noon as the regimeut was mustered in and eqnipped it was sent to Jacksonville, Florida, and placed under Gen. Fiuhugh tree's command for discipline and drill. Now that there seems to be a certainty that it and its Colonel will be given an opportunity to go to Cuba, a majority cf the regiment and its officers, including Col. W. J. Bryan, are reported as clam onng to be discharged, in order that they may participate in the fall campaign in Nebraska. The Governor is nrgiDg the War De partment t muster them out, and Colo nel Bryan is threatening to resign, in or der to be able to take tbe stump before the coming election. Colonel Bryan will he allowed to resign, if he so desires, but his regiment will not be mustered out at present. It was forced upon the War De partment purely for tbe sake of affording Mr. Bryan an opportunity to gin some notoriety in connection with the Spanish war. In response to earnest requests it waa placed in General Lee's corps, be cause it was well known that the troops under that command were to be tbe first of the reserves to see foreign service. In convenient as it may be to Colonel Bryan and tbe men of his command to be away frvn Nebraska during a political cam paign, tbe War Iepartment is unable to convince itself that it is its duty to change a military programme In order to afford the late candidate of tbe Democratic party an opportunity to continue his interrupt ed series of rear platform addresses. A large number of individual applications for muster-out from tbe regime-1 have been granted, but the War Department has positively refused to place the regi ineut on the roll of those organizations which are to be immediately mustered out.

A feeling of relief and satisfaction will spread over the country w hen it is learned that a in vestigation of the war department scan dals is actually to be held and that it will be conducted by the nine distinguished men whose name tbe Trepidant an nounced to-nighL The names are as fol lows : Lieutenant General John M.

The message which President Mfr Kinley addressed to each of these follows: "Will yon render the country a great service by accepting my appointment as a member of the committee to examine into tbe conduct of tbe commissary, quar termaster and medical bureaus of tbe war department during the war and into tbe extent, causes and treatment of sick ness in tbe field and in tbe camps? "It is my desire that tbe full and exact truth shall be ascertained and made known.

It would have been difficult for the President to have selected nine men more favorably known to the American people, and yet equipped perfectly lor the work they will be called upon to perform. II Hung Chang Ditmiited. Li Hung Chang, the Chinese statesman, has been dismissed from power, presum ably in accordance with a demand of the English government, Li Hung Chang was, among other things, a member of tbe Chinese foreign office. On August 15 it was reported in London that the British foreign office in tended to demand that tbe Chinese gov ernment dismiss him from power, on the ground that he was responsible for the recent anti-British attitude of the Chi nese foreign office. It was also asserted at the same time that the British foreign office bad under consideration the ques tion of seizing tbe Taku forts, at the mouth of tbe Peking river, and the city of Tien-Tsin, the port of Peking, in the event of China refusing to comply with tbe demand. Tbis ia not the first time Li Hung Chang has been dismissed from power. In November, 1895, he fell into disfavor and was deprived of his yellow jacket aud other decorations or in other words, he waa removed from the office of vice roy of the great province of Pe-Chl-Li, though be retained the title of grand sec retary. But his disgrace was not of long duration, and be soon afterwards repre sented China at the coronation of the Czar of Russia, made a tour of Europe and visited tbis counliy while on his way back. to China. Li Hung Chang was one of the four great men named by Geueral Grant as having been met by him during his tour of the world. The other three were Lord Beaconsfield, Prince Bis'mark and Gsm betta, the French statesman. Brick for Schley's Aids. Sax JfAX de Porto Rico, SepL 9. The American Evacuation Commission ersRear Admiral Schley, Major Gener al Brooke and Brigadier Geueral Gordon at a meeting held yesterday afternoon, decided to notify Captain General Macias that they were present and ready to pro ceed with business. A communication to this effect was drafted in most courte ous terms. It asked where and when the Spanish Commissioners would meet the American. Lieutenant Sears, Rear Ad in iral Schley's flag lieutenant, delivered tbe communication to tbe Captain Gener al, driving to tbe Palace in a carriage. At the gate of tbe Palace, a brick was hurled at him from the sidewalk. Boing an old baseball player, he was able, part ly, to ward the missile off with his hands, and it fell, striking him on tbe ankle, but doiug only slight injury. This is the first incident of the kind since our arrival here.

Therefore, be declared, be could not be held respon sible for tbe acts charged by Senor Can' alejas. Moreover, he asserted that the admira's met in council and expressed a unani mous opinion that the squadron should go to Cuba. "Admiral Cervera not having coal or food, waa unable," said Captain Aunon, "to leave tbe blockaded port of Santiago. He wanted to blow up his ships in tbe harbor, but I informed him that it would be preferable to leave the port and engage the euemy. Gen. Blanco ordered Admiral Cervera to leave Santiago aud fixed tbe day of his departure." Bepnblieaa Victory la Xaiaa. The following dispatch from State Chairman Joseph II.

As ts the Cost of Street t avisg. The lowest prices at which street par ing can be done, aging vitrified brick or Ligonier blocks, ranges from L25 to f L jO per square yard. The curbing needed along the sides of the streets will cost about 4o cents per lineal foot on each side. There would also be additional ex pense for grading at places, as well as for preparing the roadbed ou which it is to rost, but we are not in a position to make any estimate of this item of cost. In some cases the ground iu its natural state ia put in the best possible shape to receive tbe pavement, but where It ia de sired to do the very best of work it is often necessary to prepare a bed of con crete lor the pavement to refat on, all of which will add to the cost of the work. But for the purpose of this article we will use ft 25 per square yard for making esti mates of cost. On our 6f foot streets, where the side walksas on Main street are to be 12 feet wide, there would be 4 square yards of paving in each lineal foot of the length of the street; addiug 90 cents for the curb stone on the two hides would make the cost for each lineal foot of the street fO 71. The same cost would apply to a part of Main Cross street But on part of Main Cross street, on Patriot and Union streets the sidewalks are ouly 10 feet wide, and there each lineal foot would require five and one-ninth square yards, at a cost of J7-2y per lineal foot of street. On our 50- foot streets with 10 foot sidewalks the cost would be fl.93 per lineal foot of street, to all of which must be added the cost of grading the street and preparing it, whatever that may be. Now, there are a few people who seem to think that these figures should not look very high to any one. But let us see where they will run to in the aggre gate for the whole town, or even for any one long street. Main street, from tbe railroad on Pleasant street to the borough line on Franklin st: eet, ia 4.2U0 feet long, and to pave and curb it at tbe lowest price we know of, viz: $6 71 per lineal foot, would cost Sis, 1 Si. Union street has l,ZW feet that should be paved, which, at $7.29 per lineal foot, would cost f 11.112 50. Patriot street has 2,400 feet, which, at the same rate, will cost f 17.490. West street has at least 1,350 feet and East street 1,050 feet that should be paved, at a cost of $4.09 per foot. On Main Cross street there is a length of about 3,000 feet that certainly should come in on any scheme for street paving. Assuming that a uniform curb line of twelve feet on each side for the sidewalks be set, then this street would cost 920,130. The grand total for all these streets would be $K7,994. But even tbis large sum would not represent all of tbe cosL Let a street onee be paved, and tbe sidewalks will have to conform to tbe new order of things. There is not a side walk in tbe entire town that would not have to be torn up and relaid, and those of plank- would have to go altogether. We are impelled to give these figures on the cost of street paving because some of our people seem to have taken up the idea that tbe Borough ought to abandon its present system of street work and in stead pave each year such a length ol street as the taxea collected would per mit. Now these people certainly never have made any very close calculation on cost. If they had they would see that such a scheme as that had very little feasibility about it, because, after first paying for street light, police service and other expenses ot administration, and having used the taxing power t its ut most limit, tbe borough would be kept busy to pave as much as four hundred feet on any of the wide streets in any one year, and to do this much they could not do a particle of work on the streets any where else, not even as much as the open ing of the gutters and water tables. We have shown that at least 13,550 line al feet have about an equal right to de mand such improvements, and at that rate it would require thirty-three years to complete the round, and long before that time the first part paved would be ready to pave over, wbile the parts re maining nnpaved would, after the first few years, be utterly worn out, and in wet weather as impassable as a ploughed field. No, such a scheme will not work. Cer tainly some of those wbospeak in its fav or must calculate that as soon as they can have their own street paved and made nice that they will then find some way of stopping the work, and so leave their neighbors who live on other streets in tbe lurch after having helped pay for tbe beautify ing of tbe streets on which these people live. They may find that won't work either, for once started the people en the outlying streets will stand np for their own. Under the act relating to street paving, on petition of a majority of tbe lot own ers, the borough may pave the street and collect two thirds of the cost from tha property owners according to thir f o itag-, and one third to be paid out of the borough funds. This would be the better way; on oeti tion we think the borough might pave from 800 to 900 feet each year and still have something left over toward keeping the remaining streets in passable condi tion wbile the work Would be going on and the time required for paving all of the streets named could be brought down to about 1(1 years. But will our property holders sign such a petiti .n in numbers enough to justify a start? Outside of that part of Main Cross street between the Diamond and Union street, a distance of 2.10 feet (not enough to begin on 1 we do not believe that at thia time enough signers could be obtained on an six hundred feet of street anywhere in the town, and on less than that dist ance it would not be worth while to start. But if encb a length as that were to corns in on petition (tbe signers of course hav ing duly considered what it was going to cost them) then we think tbe council would be very likely to try to find the money for their end of it. Should enough petitioners for such a length of paving come in, the first step necessary would be the employment of a competent engineer to establish and fix the grades or every street in the town. It looks to ua at least that this would have to be done. A proposition to do this was offered once in the council and was lost by a tie vote. The cost of doing thia work Is various ly estimated at from three to five hun dred dollars. Some, at least, if not all of the dissent ing councilmen, voted against the mo tion because in their opinion there was uot sufficient evidence of enough desire on the part of property holders to have the work of street paving commenced to warr-tnt such an expense st the present time ; that it would be a useless expendi ture unless the work were to be taken up in dead earnest, and also for the further reeton tlat the streets in many places were so nearly worn out that tbey must needs first be put in better condition, which would exhaust all of tbe present means of the borough. Thia matter of fixing of grades and getting people to conform to tbem is go ing to prove one of the great obstacles in tbe way of paviug our streets. That council may establish such grades ia, we believe, conceded. But there ia a right time and a wrong time to do such a thing, and we fear that so far as Somerset is concerned the right time to do so has long since passed. Tbe time to do such a thing is before the people make their improvements on their properties ; before they have built their houses, fences, eta After all these things have once been done and left un disturbed perhaps for a hundred years. It becomes a difficult problem, and to do it now will damage many properties almost irreparably. Who is to stand snch loss, the owner or the municipality t If the latter, thenit would have to be bonded to the full extent of the law to "make good snch loss, and ths town would be as far away from paved streets as ever. If we know what is meant by grading a street. It mea-s that at places it win have to be cut dow n and the material so obtained at one place must be filled in at other places to bring it up to grade, with the result that one man will have to have a ladder to get into bis house from the street, while another will find that getting into his house will be something like getting down into a cellar. There certainly are places where jut such a thing would happen, and if street grad ing will damage any man's property in that way, we believe the municipality will have to make it good. We submit all thia to tbe consideration of those who urge street paving. If they can show us how at least soms of these difficulties may be surmounted, we shall be glsd to receive the Information. We admit it would be nice to have paved streets. We further believe that if our people could be brought to incur the ex pense, and could overcome the difficul ties that seem to lie in the way, it would pay tbem to have paved streets; that in the end it would enhance tbe value of the real estate of ths town far beyond the oust, to say nothing of tbe eujoymentof having smooth and clean streets and good sidewalks. But do tbey really want these thing T If they do, they must move of their own accord. If tbe people of to-day desire to enjoy these conveniences, they must pro vide them themselves ; it is a work that posterity can not do for them. But are our people willing to tax them selves for street improvements T We shall presently see. Sewerage and drain age must certainly precede paving. To have them will require a heavy outlay of money, and the people will on next elec tion day say whether a new departure shall be taken or whether we will abide by the old order of things. If they vote in favor of sewerage, then we may rea sonably hope that in due time tbey will also determine that we will have good streets. It will be the crucial test. If the people will not agree to tax them selves for anything so palpably needed as a good system of sewerage, it is not at all likely that they will want to tax them selves for anything else, and paved streets will be but an iridescent dream for years to come. C Boaaty Paid far Trees. A few good laws slipped through the last Pennsylvania Legislature, along with the great mass of bad ones, and among them is one allowing a bounty to land owners who will help to preserve the forests of the State, and encouraging the planting of trees. It allows a reduction of taxes, or, what is tbe same thing, a bounty from the County Commissioners, on all forest lands that meet certain very moderate re quirements. The first man to take ad vantage of the new law is said to have been a resident of Allegheny county, who secured a rebate of 122.50. Doubt less many other persons will follow his example as soon as the act becomes more generally known, llere it is, as found on the statute books, having been approved May25,lS97: Be it enacted, etc., That in considera tion of the public benefit to be derived from the retention of forest or timber trees, the owner or owners of land in this Commonwealth, having on it forest or timber trees of not less than fifty trees to tbe acre, aud each of said trees to meas ure at least eight inches in diameter at a height of six feet above the surface of the ground, with no portion of the said land absolutely cleared of tbe said trees, shall, on making due proof thereof, be entitled to receive annually from the Commis sioners of tbeir respective counties du ring tbe period that the said trees are maintained in sound condition upon the said land, a sum equal to eighty per cen tum of all the taxes annually assessed and paid upon the said land, or so much of the said eighty per centum as shall not exceed the sum of forty-five cents per acre: Provided, however, Tht n- one property-owner shall be entitled to re ceive said sum on more than fifty acres. Vaaila Hemp. Every engineer knowa what manila hemp is, but few are aware that it is the product of a species of banana which is cultivated in certain localities in tbe Phil ippine islands. Tbe plant, called by the natives "abaca," throws up a cluster of sheathing lei. .'stalks to a height of 20 or 30 feet, which spread out at tbe top into a crown of huge undivided leaves. When it is three years old, it is cut down, aud the stalks are torn into strips. These strips, wbile still fresh, are drawn be tween a knife aud a wooden block, and the soft cellulose matter is removed. Th fiber is then hung up to dry in the open air until it is fit for use. Each stalk gives about a pound of fiber, and two natives will turn out about twenty-five pounds a d.ty. The inside fiber, which is thin and weak, is used by tbe natives for making articles of dress. Tbe familiar manila rope is made from the fiber of the outer layer, which is bard and strong. The whole supply of manila hemp practically comes from the Philippines, and the I'ui ted States consumes 41 per cent, of it. A Great Zoological Gardes. The Zoological Society of New York propose to construct what will probably be the finest zoological garden in tbe world in Bronx Park, New York, and under the direction of the exe-utive com mittee tbe plans are being fully elabora ted. The society expects to open the gar den to tbe public in a satisfactory way on May 1, 189J. While the work is progress ing with all due rapidity and zeal, tbe old and well approved plan of relieving bil iousness and constipation through the be neficeot agency of Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters finds geueral recognition.

As usual, the pernicious conferee system U responsible for it. Each of the counties composing the district, Blair, Cambria, Somerset and Bedford counties, has a candidate, and as usuaVeach one insists that it is entitled to the nomination. The candidate have each appointed three conferees, and they have contrived up to the present time to preveut the nomination of anybody by atlcking to the man who appointed tbem, so that nobody has succeeded in getting a majority. This trouble was exper.eneed two years ago. when the tiin for filing papers caused a stampede, and the suc cessful man barely got his papers into the State Department in lime to get a place on the ticket. It is time this sort of fool ishness was stopped. Of course, it rests entirely with tbe Republicans of the dis trict to make au end of it, but they are a'l selfish ar.d nobody wauts to give an inch. It may happen that in the end there will be a display of good common sense and a nomination may be made, but we confess that at present the counties seem to be as far apart as ever. A Democratic Congress man in that district might awaken the Republicans of the district to a proper ap preciation of the situation. Harrisburg Telegraph. , .

Sadler and Sigmann, M4 Pcnn Ave., Pittsburg, Pa., is too well es tablished to neeu much comment. The thousands of deaf and blind people w ho have been restored to hearing and sight by these most eminent surgeons, are by far the be-1 recommendation of their merits. To the long list of marvelous operations which have been performed in th'ir olhcea, a new one is added through the case of Mr. Massey, 107 Third Street, S. 8., Pittsburg Pa. His right eye-ball was pierced by a piece of Steel in February last. The wound healed after a protract ed and painful period of recovery, but tbe vision was totally gone, which was partial ly due to a cataract which developed in the injured eye; partially also to inflam mation of the tender inside structures covering tbe p ipil with an impenetrable membraue. Dr. Sigmann, to whom Mr. Massey entrusted his case, performed a so-called Iridectomy (making an artificial pupil ), removed the cataract, and now, eight weeks after the operation, Mr. Massey is a happy man. He sees (with glasses) even em til objects at a long distance and can read coarse print. Indeed, a triumph of modern surgery. KDSTXaiSO our THE troops. It will Take Time and BIgid Examinatioa. The work of mustering out the troops, which is expected to begin this week, will require some time. Tbis Is one reason why the soldiers will go hack to tbeir owl States for their discharge. Another reason given for sending the troops back to their respective States is to comply with the agreement of enlistment, that all soldiers when mustered out will be provided with transportation to tbeir places of enlistment. The general orders relating to tbe mus tering ot provide that to tboee officers and men w ho have served beyoud tbe U nits of the Uuited States leaves of ab sence aud furloughs for sixty days will be granted respectively, while to those who have not served outside of tbe coun try tbe leaves of absence and furloughs will be limited to thirty days. Except for the necessary guard details, ex., of officers and men, leaves of absence for sixty days, and furloughs for the same period will be granted all otlicers and en listed men of organizations which have served beyond tbe limits of the United States, and thirty days to officers and men of organizations which have not served beyond tbe limits of the United States, when such organizations are ordered to be mustered out of service. Such leaves of absence and furloughs will be granted by tbe commanding offi cers after the organizations have arrived at the State rendezvous, all to take effect on one date for thirty days, or sixty days, as the case may lie, and all officers and men must without fail report at the ren dezvous on the thirtieth or aixtietb day thereafter.
