SATUSDAY, APEIL 17, 1886,

The city council of St. Paul voted $5,000 for the aid of the cyclone sufferers, whereupon the Minneapolis city council voted $25,000. This kind of rivalry is a good thing—for the sufferers.

Parnell never joined the dynamiters. He stood manfully fighting for the Irish cause, and by his rational and straightforward course has accomplished more than the "striking" dynamiters ever could have obtained.

The city democratic leaders are to hold a caucus Sunday afternoon, to discuss the approaching city election. The republicans must elect every candidate for the council, one in each ward, to secure a majority in that body. No better evidence of the probability of this being done could be furnished than this call for a caucus on Sunday.

Mr. Powderly mistook the oize of his contingency when he ordered a general fight against monopoly. That is he thought all persons who are opposed to the Goulds would rally to the K. of L. fight. He forgot that map as able as himself and people everywhere had been studying this monopoly question and looking at it in a broad way, before the K. of L. was organized and that they understood well enough that these proclamation movements are not deep enough or lasting enough to effect a cure.

A Florida gentleman who has visited Senator Jones at Detroit at the instigation of many of the senator's friends in Florida, says the senator is indignant at the liberty the press has taken with his personal affairs. He says that he is in Detroit in the interest of a manufacturing enterprise (name not given), and that the talk about his being infatuated with an heiress of that city is false. He offera as an excuse for his prolonged absence from his duties at Washton that other senators had been equally as negligent. He will, he informed his friend, return to Washington, "if the press is satisfied to give up its attack." In this connection it may be remarked that the young lady, who, it wag alleged, the senator was besieging, has left Detroit.

The senate yesterday confirmed W. D. Hunter for collector of internal revenue in the Lawrenceburg district. A de-

spatch to the Enquirer says Henderson*]

of the Kokomo district is to be confirmed at an early day, but that Hanlon will be hung up a while longer. Hunter and Henderson succeeded suspended officials, and until the administration backed down on its claim to have made no removals except for cause there was no prospect of their confirmation. This the administration, thiough the secretary of the treasuiy has done, The delay in Hanlon's case rests on no such ground, as there was a convenient Vacancy when he was appointed. The opposition to his confirmation arises from the fact that a faction of the democratic party in this revenue district is trying to

convince the senate finance committee that Hanlon is not the kind of a man to whose appointment the senate should give its advice and consent.

expressed at the ballot box. No spring qus

election can be suggestive of a change in the congressional delegation of a state that is a pre-determined matter. Naturally, therefore, the southern editor looks upon our elections in much the same sort of a curious way that we read the returns of the elections in France where the people are given to changing their opinions as occasion requires. The New Orleans Times-Democrat after a sum mary of the result in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa and elsewhere says:

The« is, of course, no intimate connection

An exchange remarks that "Mr. Powderly as well as Mr. Gould is thoroughly in earnest." We beg leave to doubt thei

in one county and a republican in another along the line of his railroads, just as the parties predominated. His whole record gives the lie to any claim for him haring honest conviction on any subject concerning his speculations.

he will do so without th.e sUghtest compunction. Being that easy of conscience he coolly observes the actions of those who are really in earnest, and if he would destroy them altogether he first makes them mad and if needs be lie drives them to desperation. He is successfully doing that thing now. "While .it is undoubtedly true that the Hoxie reports as to the amount of freight moving are grossly exaggerated, etilt the roads are setting more men at work day by day, even many Knights of Labor returning to work. The sentiment that there must be no violence has taken the shape of an imperative order on the authorities, and from this time on the roads will continue to improve their condition. In the end, Gould's enemies will be left out in the coM.

Mr. Hox ie'f hand in the strike has been skillfully played, but continued observance of his actions leaves no doubt of the fact that from the beginning he has been determined to make war on the Knights of Labor. The detailed report of the conference between the K. of L. executive committee and the Missouri Pacific people in New York also leaves no doubt that there was an understanding to this effect, a fact evaded in all the talk that took place there, yet quite apparent. Mr. Hoxie did not decline to meet the representatives of the Firemen's brotherhood, but on tha contrary accedcd to all they asked. He can not fairly claim that his policy is to ignore labor organizations. He simply intends to defeat lhe one organization which a year ago gained a point from him by the arbitiation of the governors. To carry out his plan he has been driven to subterfuges and double dealing with the committee appointed by the St. Louis mass meeting.

Yet this does not warrant the position Powderly has taken his surrender from the one he has all along maintained. In his circular three weeks ago he said, "This is a year for concessions and advances. Be that as it may, we can not force them by striking." He then said the strike was ill-advised. Why he should now persist in going ahead when he is sure he is not right can only be explained on the supposition that he has been forced by the Irons element to do what his better judgment opposes. In his circular of Thursday he says '"tt makes but little difference now whether the men of the southwest acted wisely not." Indeed it does make a vast deal of difference. The idea that this strike, which he has pronounced causeless should be continued because Jay Gould is the representative of all that is bad monopoly, is preposterous. Mr. Pow derly is doing his organization a great injury when he shifts the fight.

The just cause of workingmen enlists the sympathy of the people. If the cause of the southwest strikers was just it would surely prevail but when Mr. Powderly transfers the fight to one on general principles he loses all the support might have had in the outset. If he wants to organize the Knights ot Labor into an an ti-monopoly party, he has taken the best means of doing so, but he should not forget that the anti-monopoly sentiment does not revolve around the situation on the Gould railroads.

The wise man does not persist in a mis taken course, and, having seen the mistake, Powderly should have been wise enough not to "strike the iion with one hand while the other was in his jaws, an illustration he so fittingly applied to the situation a few weeks ago.

It is needless to say those dolls occupied the poet of honor on that vessel.

Attempts have been made several times to found a temperance society in Paris, but without success. The Parisian cannot be induced to give up his wine. Light wines are cheap in Paris, and what

is more are considered essential luxuries of diet, owing to the bad quality of the water, which is indeed undrinkable in some parts of the town. The drinking habits of the people are growing, for, within the last few years, the consumption of alcoholic liquor per head has been doubled. The latest attempt to start a teetotal society is that made by the Societe de la Croix-Bleu. A branch of "this society was established in Paris a yeir ago, and, notwithstanding the vigilance of the pioneer reformers, they have only succeeded in capturing about fifty persons.

THE POISONED CHILDREN.

The Peculiar Case at Fontanel—The Doctors Hnch Interested. The children poisoned at Fontanet are attracting considerable attention from the medical profession, and the cases will probably be discussed by the medical society. Dr. Stunkard stated to an Express reporter yesterday some facta in regard to the poisonous plant which the children ate. He said: "The arum triphyllum, commonly called uake robin, or Indian turnip, is common in all parts of the United States, growing in damp woods, in swamps, along ditches and in other moist, shady places. In the recent st8te it is highly acrid and has a peculiar odor. The acrid principle is entirely driven off by heat and when dry the loot is not poisonous. When taken in the recent state in over-doses it produces vio lent inflammation in the mouth, fauces, vesopbagus and stomach. A fatal case occurring in a child 3 years old is recorded in the "Annuaire de Therapentique" (A. D. 1862, P. 16). The symptoms manifested by the children who had partaken of the poison at Coal Bluff, were those of an irritant poison. burning taste in the mouth was followed by dryness of the throat. Then pain in the stomach followed by vomiting, pulse strong, frequent and regular, finally losing its force and becoming slower and weaker before death. There were appearances of intoxication in those mostly affected by the poison. Breathing was quick and ^difficult, there was complete insensibility. Pupils of the eyes were greatly dilated. Body became swollen before death, and continual convulsions followed the violent cramps in the stomach. The extremeties were reasonably warm. There were some symptoms of cerelral congestion. Tongue was bitten, and bled freely during convulsions, just previous to death. There was no oedema of the eyelids. There was nothing characteristic in the vomited matter, which consisted mostly of the gastic juice. The patient sank into an unconscious state about an hour after taking the poison, and died in convulsions about an hour later. In those who recovered emetics were administered, and after vomiting freely the convulsions soon subsided, and the intoxication rapidly passed off. There was complete recovery twelve hours after the poison was taken. The patients complained ol no pain except in the stomach, and the nausea was very slight."

Yesterday afternoon Coroner Kornman filed with the circuit clerk his verdict in the Coal Bluff poisoning case. It is as fol lows: "I, Peter Kornman, coroner, having examined the body of Elizabeth White, and heard the testimony of witnesses do hereby find that said deceased" came to her death by accidental poisoning resulting from eating by mistake the root of the arum tryphyllum, commonly called wake robin or Indian turnip."

DARWIN AND EVOLUTION.

The President of the State University Lectures Before the Normal School. Last night the commodious hall of the Normal building was crowded with an audience of ladies and gentlemen to hear the lecture of President Jordan, of the State university, on "Darwin and Evolution," delivered before the Normal school. The lecture, in addition to being a plain explanation of Darwin's philosophy of the origin of species, with numerous illustrations of its scientific truth, contained many eloquent tributes to Darwin's greatness as a scientist, coupled with his simplicity of life, his devotion to family, and friends and his firm, undying belief in God, the creator. The theory of evolution w.as also fully discussed. Dr. Jordon, not long ago visited the home of Darwin and spent considerable time in collecting much information pertinent to his social and private life among the simple folks, who, for many years dwelt in the little English village as the neighbors of the great student of nature.

Dr. Jordan's lecture in full will appear in to-morrow morning's Express. The next lecture of the Normal course will be delivered Friday evening, May 10th, by the Rev. Dr. Corning, of this city. Subject: "Roman Art."

A COLORED STAR.

A Negro Boj Gives a Remaikable Per-I formanee of "Rtehard III." A negro boy who, says a Chicago paper, a few years ago, blacked boots in a south side saloon, made his debut last night on the dramatic stage as Gloster in "Richard II I." The play was produced by a colored company the TwentySecond street opera house. The young star is Charles Winter Woods. He is 18 years old, and was born in Charleston. He is employed in a wholesale house in Chicago. For some time past he has been a pupil of Prof. Lyman, who was attracted by the boy's genius.

His performance last night was remarkable, considering his youth and the magnitude of bis task in presenting such mighty tragedy. He has a strong face, homely enough in its outlines to befit the original Gloster. His conoeptfon of the part was excellent, and well sustained, but the strain of the long effort told upon his youth, and at the close of the last act it was hardly necessary for Richmond to kill him—he was nearly dead from exhaustion. The sword fight on Bosworth field was a realistic piece of work. Young Richard was at a disadvantage, being at least fifty pounds lighter than Richmond, but he went at him, hammer-and-tongs, and knocked Richmond's tin helmet off in the first round and pounded him severely on the legs with his sword. ,4c*

The time has arrived when no one sunerlng with Throat and Lungs need despair of recovery who Is willing to make proper trial of those new remedies providing they begin int season. Now Is the proper time for applying the remedies at this season of the year before the cold and damp weather of the fall and winter sets in so that you may become cured, and not put off until your disease has become Incurable.
