There is a rule forbidding spectators in the senate galleries from hanging their top-coat or other garments over the iron railings that protect the front row of seats, for fear thai an apple or some other concealed weapon might fall upon the bald head of a senatorial millionaire. This prohibition is almost as old and quite as eacr6d as the Mosiic law in fact, th9 latter is not so Etricily enforced in the senate. This morning, Mrs. Cleveland and a young lady, who is her guest., went to the capitol and took the seat that ia slways kept vacant for the

H£§& AND THSftg,

One of Mr..Kendrick's most intimate friends in Terre Haute was Mr. K. P. Tern ant. The latter gentleman knows of many incidents in Mr. Kendrick's carer which are worthy of note. When Mr. Kendrick was connected with the passenger department of the Illinois Midland railroad, Mr. Tennant was on a committee to make arrangements for a Sunday school picnic. Mr. Kendrir.k was detirous of havirg tbe excursion go over tbe Illinois Midland. The two gtfntltmen and several other persons went out one morning to find a ^pva suitfble for a picnic. The trski stopped and the party got ofi. In tht afternoon p.3 the train cams to Terre Haute Mr. Kendrick intended to stop it and get aboard. It came along and Mr. Kendrick, who was in a grove, ran and jamped over the fence and called and motioned to the engineer. His signals were not noticed and the train passed on. Mr. Kendrick then went to a farm house some distance away, procured a wagon and took the party to the nearest station, telegraphed for an engine which carae out and took the party back to this city.

Mr. Kendrick and Mr. Tennant were at another time cn their way to Cincinnati. Mr. Kendrick at the time was exceedingly depressed in spirits, and Mr. Tennant made an eflort to cheer him up. They occupied the same berth in a sleeper and spent a long time in talking. Finally Mr. Kendrick said very dejectedly: "Well, I wonder what lam good for anyhow?" "O, you will be general passenger agent of the New York Central," said Mr. Tennant in reply.

Ever afterward when Mr. Kendrick received a promoliuo he always telegraphed Mr. Tennant. His rite in railroad poeitions was rapid. Upon one of Mr. Tennant's visits to the East he met Mr. Kendrick, who was then passenger a^eut of the LiickawaMia. "You are not my prophet yet," said Mr. Kendrick.

No, but I wili be," replied Mr. Tennant. Mr. Kiudrick said that he wss afraid not, as he was on a competing line to the New York Central. Mr. Tennsnt answered that if he was successful the New York Central would certainly recognize his ability and secure bis services. During his first year with the Larkawana he increased its passenger earnings about iliree millions of dollar.-?. Later, Mr. Teiinant, while again ii the E*st, met Mr. Kendrick on tbe train. When one station was reached, Mr. Kendrick received a telegram from bis secretary stating that a personal letter had resched the ofii from Chauncy DePew, and asking instructions regarding it. "That is an ofier from the New York Central," eai-1 Mr. Tennant. "O, no, I guess not," replied Mr. Kendrick.

He returned to his office and upon opening the letter found that it was a proposition to become passenger agent of the road at a salary of S15,000 a year, fie accepted and Mr. Tennam prophesy was fulfilled. When he accepted. Mr. Kendrick telegraphed to Mr. Tennant.

Mr. Kendrick was a wonder as a passon er agent. His manners were exceedingly sgreeabl? and he could accomplish things where other men fail companied a partv of to Chicago, and Mr. there. The

Frenchmen were loud in

tbeir praises of Mr. Kendrick. "If you will only come and visit a*," said one of them to Mr. Kendrick, "we will place Paris at your feet."

Mr. Kendrick's untimely death is very much regretted by his many friends and admirers in this city.

Mr. Sain Young, of this city, is succeedingly remarkably well as a theatrical manager. He is at present engsged in organizing another dramatic company be known as the Red Letter Dramatic

The senate is very careful that its prerogatives are not invaded by the co- Combination. He is in correspondence ordinate branches of the government. The rules of the senate must bo obeyed

with several parsons in this city whom he wishes to engage. He is at present at Mansfield, Ohio, from which point the company will start. S. ni is making a success financially, and will reUiru next summer and locate here. Although not generally knov. n, Mr. Young is married. He left here early in July 1885 and went to Oskosb, Mich and was married to Miss Ida Smock, .or Ida Melville. Tbe a3air was kept a secret for about a year and neither the members of the company or Mr. Young's relatives in this city knew of tbe marriage.

THOSE CHARGES.

Gossip Regarding the Felice lavosUga tion o£ Flaid's Charge?. The charges that were preferred sgainst Messrs. Lawlor and Vandever by Charles Fiaid MomUy, at the meeting of tbe board of commissioners, occasioned considerable gossip. The Express account stated that the charges were in the handwriting of a well-known attorney. Mr. Thos. Foley slated to an Express reporter yesterday morning that he Tyrote the charges. He is the city attorney aud it is his duty to write the charges when called upon to do so. He stated that Mr. Flaid requeued him to write the charges and he complied with the request, as was his duty as city attorney.

The commissioners will meet subject to call by Mayor Kolsem. At the meeting Monday it wss suggested that the board meet next Monday and take evidence in the case. Mr. Clift announced that he intended going to Chicago the latter part of the week aiid WC"!d "Ct tG here next Monday. The matter wr.s then left entirely in the hands of Mayor Koisem to call a meeting when he thought best,

Mr. Clift was called upon by an Express reporter. From what he "knows of the case he does not consider that there is much in it- The occurrences all took place quite a loug time ago and he did not seem impressed with the idea of unearthing old transactions which were settled at the time they occurred.

He also forbade any of the members of his churc-h to speak to, or in any way recognise McCoy.

JAY GOULD.

He Talks About His Southweitern Trip nml the Inter-St.re Coinratrce Bill. NEW YORK, February 1.—Jay Gould arrived in New York on Sunday after an absence of three weeks spent in a thorough inspection of tbe southwestern railroads. He was at his office in the Western Union building, yesterday, and nearly all day was deeply immersed in business. When he was somewhat at leisure, he said to a Tribune reporter: "I have been through fourteen states since I left home, not to speak of looking over the border into Mexico. I went as far as Laredo. Mr. Clark, who took Mr. Hoxie's place, had not been over some of our lines in Texas, and a part of the trip was largely for his benefit as gcnertl manager of the system. Everywhere in the West, we found confidence and prosperity the rule among business men. There is something very nearlv approaching a business boom at the West and the talk among all classes is confident and eour ageous. Tbe movement of diza on the Missouri Pacific is extremely largo. I have a dispatch from Mr. Clark, in which is given the movement of freight trains on Saturday and yesterday. On Saturday it comprised 459 freieht trains of 7,335 cars, an increase of 220 trains and 3,540 loads compared with the same time last year, and yesterday there were moved 416 freight trains containing 6,422 loadB, an increase of 162 trains and 2,410 loads over the same day last year. Our businets is increasing in about that proportion right along, and the fact prove3 better perhaps than anything I can say the hopeful feeiing throughout the West. I find on my return that opinions here seem to be grestly mixed, to say the least, and I am a little surprised after the experiences of tbe psst three weeks.

No, I do not think the people in the west regard the strike here as a matter of great importance. At any rate, they did not seem to pay much attention to tbe inter-state commerce bill they hope to derive a great advantage from it. It is rathfr a curious fact that the people who will be likely to suffer most from the practical operations of the measure, are much more heartily in favor of it than people of the east. I know little about the probable action of the president, but a dispatch was shown me just now which stated that three members of the cabinet were opposed toit, and tbe others were in favor of it. I should think that the chances were about even that the president might sign or veto it. It would make him v*ry popular with some classes if he should send out a ringing message in objection to the bill. There is one clause in it that I think is plainly unconstitutional because, while congress may have tbe right io regulate

THE EUROPEAN SITUATION.

Minister Pendleton Declares That the Final Solution Kests With HismarcU. NEW YORK, February 1.—Hon. George H. Pendleton, United States minister to Germany, who arrived here on the steamer Saale, yesterday, was seen by a reporter at the house of his son, Frank H. Pendleton, to-day. Mr. Pendleton said he had come on a short visit. He intends to rest two or three days, and will then go to Washingson to report to secretary of state. After that he will go to his homeia Cincinnati, where be will remain for a brief period before his de-p-riure for his post of duly. Mr. Pendleton waa asked as to his views of the possibility of war in Europe, and the general feelius in regsrd to it at the German capital. He replied that he bad been on the ocean for nearly two weeks, hence was not informed as to recent developments in the matter. Since he landed Mr. Pendleton has not been able to catch up on news. "The situation," he remarked, "when I left Berlin was very much strained. The powers of Europe, trom a general leeling of insecurity, have been making immense preparations, 'i here are tremendous military works .nd armaments on every side. I heard Von Moltke say tbat it was a condition ol affairs that must Lave a solution. It may have changed since then. The Reichstag was dissolved on the question of tbe military bill on the Friday before I left Berlin. Nothing new opcurred before I sailed."

Mr. Pendleton said that ho could not see that any one in Germany desired a war. In fact, every effort was being made to avoid it. The old emperor waa extremely anxious to have peace during his time. Bismarck was not ready for war now. He would not ue ready until the military bill had been passed and tbe army reorganized. "In fact," added the embassador, "it eoerns that Bismarck would accord heartily with any proposition for peace with honor. The emperor will, in a Ehort time, celebrate his nine tioth birthd y. Bismarck is 72. Both wish for peace. The middle classy are not anxious fa* ^a!.(

tbe burden will

rail heavily upon them, 'ihsra are, however, certain classes in all countries whose condition would be advanced by war. But the great mass of people desire peace. Their opinions count for nothing. Van Mohke, Bismarck and two or three others settle such matters. In France, General Boulanger leads One peculiar thing would strike Americans in Europe. That is, how little the people influence the policy of tbe rulers."

Mr. Pendleton then spoke at some length of the strugg in the Reichstag over the bill providing for an increase of 62,000 men for the army for a period of seven years of its advocacy by Bismarck of the refusal of the Reichstag to grant it for more than three years, and of the immediate dissolution of that body, practically as the 6tory was told at the time, from day to day, in the Ass3ciated Press dispatches. Mr. Pendleton concluded with the remark that it waa impossible to tell what the result might be. Everything depended on the de-

from St. marriage with a Mits Emma Long, after having Becured a divorce from hia wife. —_ Miss Long lived n9xt door to the McCoy cision of the chancelor, family, and Michael became infatuated ith ner, so much so that he was accused New cures and ftcsa triumphs for St. 'by his neighbors of having mistreated Jacobs Oil are of daily occurrence,

fiU Etpfcrisnce in Kama* City, St. XbaU and the West. The Kansas City Journal says of On Stein, who has killed another man: It was thought after Stein's acquittal on tbe charge of murder in Kansas City tbat he would partially reform at least but his subsequent acts have shown that his life in the last two years has been a continuation of his career of blood. 8tein came to Kansas Ciiy in the fall of 1SS2, from Leadvilie, under the Dame of John Bell. He had managed a low variety theatre there aud claimed to have killed his man in Colorado, but this was not generally accepted. He secured a position as telegraph editor of the Times. He soon went over to the Evening Star, and tbere his talent as a decidedly brilliant sensational and special writer be:in to assert itself. Ke remained on tho Star a few months and then became a private detective. However, he soon tired of this and re entered the Star's employ, in a short time being placed in charge of the local force. About midnight, June 8, 1883, Stein ki'-led George Fredericks, the manager of the Walnut street theater, in a quarrel ever a woman of the town, known ss Mattie Hartlein. The shooting ocrurrcd in a building near tbe corner of Fourth and Walnut street?, and Steiu and Fredericks had left ths Hartlein woman's room, having resolved to allow the quarrel between them to pass without farther notice. Fredericks walked downthestairwayafews.eps in front of Stein. The latter drew his revolver, and placing it within a few inches of Fredericks' heed, fired. His

merchan- victim's back was turned and Fredericka died after a few days' intense suffering, Stein laid ia jail until August, before his trial commenced. His father,

Hon. John H. Stein, a prominent lawyer of Lafayette, Ir-d., who has sinc3 died, and his mother came to Kansas City to attend the trial of their son, but his able counsel succeeded only in saving his neck from the gallows. He was sentenced to the i.-enitentiary for twentyfive years. An appeal to the supreme court was taken, and his esse was reversed. Stein was released on §10,000 bond, Ed H. Webster, W. R. Nelson and E Stein being his sureties, who were secured by an indemnifying bond raised by his frieuds in Indiana. The brilliant young newspaper man returned to his "position on the ''Star," but he soon became the associate of Dick Liddell, Bob Ford aad others equally notorious characters, and noting on the advice of his attorney, left Kansas City and went to

Denver. When his case was oalled for the second trial Stein could not be found. An attachment was placed in the hands of County Marshall Phillips, who learned that Stein had been in Chicago. He proceeded tbere and arresttd him in the corridors of tbe Grand P-cific hotel. Stein explained his absence by saj ing tbat be was afflicted with granulated eyelids. He wo-s returned to Kan sas City, surrended by his bondsmen ard lodged ia jaii. H* was brought to trial in a short lime and acquitti-d. There was considerable indignation at this surprising result, and Siein determined to leave the city.

It wiil be shown how utterly inadequate legislation is in grappling with customs and regulation ia transporttion that have grown up with the development of our railroad system. If the railroad companies will closely follow the law, it will be repealed within six months. If they do not do so, but try to e7«de it, each for himself, well, it will be somebody to catch the hindmost."

It was at the icene of the shooting of the strikers in East St. Louis by the d?p"*y sheriffs, and a large mob of the former had assembled. Stein da'-hed up to the spot in a hack, and on taking out his pencil and note book the irate strikers cried for the came of tbe paper he reprsaenttd. The words "the Globe-Democrat," were on hi3 lips when Mr. Will Baker, then of tba

St.

Louis Chronicle, stepped up aud exclaimed "Qb, he's my side partner." The Chronicle was the ccly newspaper that espoused the cause of the strikers, and they regardad the Globe-Democrat as their worst enemy.

Stein's career in fcjt, Louis ended iu disgrace. He had iak«a up whh .a courtesan whom be introduced as liis wife, and thrcugh his position secured an entree to good society. H: '.vas a "high roller" and hiy lavisiiness with money epparently had i:o bounds. Finally the discovery of ihe feci, tbat he had forged tbe name of Vice President Hoxie, of the Missouri Pacific, to several checks upon which be hod obtained large amounts, r-nd that he had been engaged in many ether crooked transactions, forced his flight. For awhile he was unheard of, but when a faw month" had elapsed as Associated Press dispatch came from bis old home at Lafayette that he had robbed his widowed mother and left his father's estate a complete wreck.

Stein was hia mother's favorite child and he had obtained about $5,000, mott of which he had squandered at the gambling table, of which he was a madly infatuated devotee.

He disappeared from Lafayette immediately foliow:ng the discovery of his merciless robbery, and the next news of his whereabouts came through a special dispatch to the Journal from Sir. Francisco, last September, chronicling b'^ arrest for forgery in Texf.s. S^Cai had represented himself the special correspondent of tbe New York Herald, and bis identity was disdosed by his attempt to have a check cashed at an express office, which waa sisned "James Gordon Bennett." A Kansas City courtesan who had joined him, also gave him away. The oily joung man was taken to E! Paso-, ana the fact of ids release from pi1, ihere is news to the Kansas City people who know him. Steiu asd bean working as a reports- on the Salt. Like Tribuno before going to Price Station.

In appearance Orth Stein wen the most genteel of gentlemen, with a tongue as smooth as an eel, and a manner as suave aB he was crooked. He was a slerv der, tall and good looking, and his gold rimmed spectacles and faultless dress gave him an air of elegance tbat ingratiated him into the graces of many. He is now not more than 25 years ct age, and is a nephew of the late Godlove S. Ortb, a former Indiana congressman, and ex-minhter to Venezuela, after whom he was named.

SONGS OF VASSAR.

Funny Kittys Seng ]y the Girl Student#. New York Herald. "Do we have college songs at Vaesar? Oh, yes," said a pretty little college maiden, "but the girls don't look in tbe book very often. Ths moat of them have the sorgs of Harvard and Yale, and it is awfully sad, but they sing the songs of other colleges more t'nsn they do their own." "Will I let you look at cur song book? YC3. But you newspaper men are always poking fun at Vassar students, and do you know that the filly paragraphs which go the rounds of the papers every year have no foundation whatever, and hurt the college? Now, unless you promise that yon won't make fun of us, you can't loos leok into this boik. Thera! Now, as you have promised, look it over."

It is a handsomely bound book, and on the cover in gold and black are a mouth organ, a mandolin and tbe words, "Vassar College Song Book."' The first song is entitled The Rose and Silver G:ey and is eur.g to the air of "K d, White and Blue." Next is a song of "Welcome," to the tune of "A Warrior Bold," and next "Ring yo Bells of the Morning," to ths air oi "Peter Gray," of which this stanza serves as au example: There were two girls from a distant town

CRUCIBLE.

About twenty y«ars ago I discovered a little sore on my check, and the doctors pronounced It cancer. I have tried a number of physicians, buf without receiving any permanent benefit, Among the number were one or two specialist*. The medicine they applied was like fire to the •or?, causing intense pain. I saw a statement in the [laper* letting what S. K. S. had done for others similarly afflicted. I procured some at once. Before had used be second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer WM healing up. My general health had been bad for two or three years—I had a hacking cough and uplt blood continually. I had a severe pain In my breast. Attcr taking six bottles of S. S. S. my eoagli left me and I grew stouter than I had been for several year*. My ennoer lms healed overall but a little spot about the slxe of a half dime, and It Is rapidly disappearing. I would nil vise every one with cancerto give S. ft. 8. a fair trial. itns. NANCY J.
