Once—A Mixed Commission to I-'inally

Settle the AiTair. Z\LVVAU:A, April 80.—A proposition of compromise and immediate evaeuatiuii of Corinto by the British is now under consideration between Washington, London and tho authorities here. The proposition embraces the following essential points:

First—Nicaragua is to pay $77,500 at London within two weeks. •Second—The British forces are to be immediately willnlrawn J'roiu Corinto, without-waiting for the two weeks to elapse.

Thii i—A mixed commission of arbitration is to pass on tiie demands of Great Britain in exerss of tho $7.1,000 claim, such commission to be constituted in a manner satisfactory to the United States and .Nicaragua.

Tho foregoing terms, it is believed, will be accepted by President Zelaya and his cabinet. It- is understood that the suggestion of settlement came from the Nicaragua republic- representative at Washington and it is believed thatsuch an adjustment would be agreeable to the United States authorities. If Nicaragua's acceptance is given tho proposition will be urged on the London foreign ollice and it is believed they will be accented.

He asks whether lie shall seize San Juan and other ports. Tho natives in some way become aware of this dispatch which aroused riotous sentiment.

Source of All the Trouble Among: tlie Turtle Mountain Indians.

MINNEAPOLIS, April :»().—A special to The Tribune from Devil's Lake, N. D., says: After sifting information from all available sources here, there seems no doubt that tho serious state of affairs at Turtle -Mountain is mostly, if not entirely, caused by Canadian half-breeds. Tho pretext is Indian claims to a large tract of hind in tho Devil's Lake district, about nine millions of which the United States has assumed title to, but which it is generally conceded the Indians had certain treaty rights.

American Indians and half-breeds seem satisfied to await the deliberations of the United States commissioners in settling the question, but the Canadian half-breeds, whose claim is denied and seems to be without equity, persist in asserting claim, disturbing settlers, exciting American, half-breeds, committing timber depredations, and going even to the extent of burning houses in their district, creating shiftlessness and disrespect of law. They wse the pwre bloods as catspaws, so as to give the affair the appearance of justice to the Indians, bwt oOO assembled Sunday to resist Marshal Cronan's attempt to take away Demorc, accused of burning government timber.

Intimidation proceeds from halfbreeds, but the Indians, only seven in number, were used as mouth pieces. There can be no doubt as to the existence of the deplorable state of affairs and the necessity of prompt and vigorous action. Marshal Cronan intends to lay the matter before Judge Thomas, and request order for use of the military, as the circumstances clearly indicate the situation with which civil authority is unable to copo.

Drouth Injuring Kansas Crops. CHEROKEE, Kau., April 30.—The pro

The pond, south of t-liis city, from which the Memphis road has drawn its supply of water for locomotives, is now dry for the first time iu 14 years, and the railroad company is compelled to haul water from Farlington, 20 miles north.

Troops Ordered Out.

MINNEAPOLIS, April 30.—A special to The Tribune from Houghton, Mich., says: The Calumet and Houghton militia company went to Marquette on a speciid tniiu at midnight. Serious rioting took place on the ore docks yesterday evening, and Governor Rich has ordered out the battalion of the Fifth regiment to put a stop to the disturbance.

One Woman Kills Another. BKISTOL, Tenn., April 30. Mrs. Martha Wallen of Blaekwater, Lee county, Va., stabbed Mrs. Lane Wallace to death with a pitchfork. The murder was the outcome of jealousy on the part of Mrs. Wallen, whose husband appears to have been paying too much attention to the murdered woman. Her husband has fled the country. *.

HERE IS REAL ELOQUENCE..

A Genius of Radiant llrillianc-y Takes His Pen In Hand. A master of language, a wielder of words, has suddenly appeared in the south. To be dclinite, he has appeared at Wilson, N. C. Here is a specimen of his work, recently clipped from the columns of paper published in that town, henceforth memorable:

That magnificent conversationalist, the superbly endowed and brilliant minded Miss Lizzio Croweli, whose powers of entertainment are so potent in their regal sway, gave a recherche and most elegant "at home" on Tuesday afternoon to her charming and highly cultured relatives, the exquisitely refined Misses Marsh of New Jersey. It was an occasion of unusual brilliancy, for amid tho sparkling gleams of the most brilliant streams of conversation tho moments were made to ripple by as sweetly and as musically and as beautifully and as radiantly as a streamlet of crystal waters flowing through banks of blooming flowers and kissed alone by trembling sunbeams as the}' come down

For chasto magnificenco and happy epithet the lines that follow aro even more remarkablo. It is needless to state that they aro by the same hand:

charming homo became tho radiant scene of ono of tho most brilliant receptions ever held in Wilson. Under the artistic touch of most skillful fingers the handsome parlor was made to resemble a poetic dream of richest fancy, for it was most beautifully and artistically decorated, while ribbons of whito and gold most beautifully intertwined, so typical of the interwoven heartstrings that wero then holding two happy souls iu such sweet union, made up a tout ensemble that evoked enthusiastic delight. And amid this radiant and sparkling scene moved to and fro like symphonies of grace and poems of ravishing loveliness some of tho loveliest and most glorious women that ever gave a charm to earth and a melody to the current of existence. Most radiantly conspicuous among these was that resplendent specimen of magnificent womanhood, that flawless jewel of richest brilliancy, the sparkling Miss Mamie Lee of Suffolk, Va., who was maid of lienor at tho recent nuptials, and who indeed reigned a majestic queen in tho royal rollings of her conquering loveliness,

Value of a liailroad.

The chief engineer in charge of the first lino of tho Mexican National railway met by a simple method what seemed a dangerous opposition to tho road. After tho construction of the road from Laredo to Saltillo the business of the "conductas, or wagon trains and pack mules, that had fareviowsly dono tho local carrying, began to fall off, until at length tho owners banded together and threatened to shoot tho trainbands that were destroying their business.

Tho situation was grave, and troops were about to bo ordered out to protect the railway men when tho chief engineer begged tho company not to ask for troops, but to furnish him with a corps of interpreters and an appropriation for entertaining. Having received both, he invited the aggrieved carriers to a banquet and caused the interpreters to call to the attention of the guosts the fact that there was more money to bo made by furnishing freight to the railway than by going to war. It was pointed out to them that the establishment of mule routes from the interior to the stations of the railway would soon build up a valuable carrying business, and so well was the argument presented that threats of violence ceased. The suggested local feeders to the road were established, the line was extended to the City of Mexico, and business so increased that the carriers wore busier and better off than thev had ever been before.—New York Sun.

Germs Everywhere.

In support of Tyndall's conclusion that germs are everywhere present in the air, Lord Rayleigh of the Royal society writes that a solution of sulphate of soda saturated to the point of crystallization has stood witliont crystallizing in his experiments for 48 hours when protected from tho air by glass covers, but has at once begun crystallizing as soon as exposed to tho air. His inference that the air contains "germs of crystallization" will not be readily accepted by chemists not so wholly committed to tho germ theory. —London Times.

When a prince of the Austrian royal family dies, his horse follows the funeral, covered with a black cloth and lame in one hoof. Tho lameness is produced by driving a nail through tho horseshoe. This is the sign of the deepest mourning.

in dazzling showers. It was indeed an occasion that will bo most pleasantly I remombered, for under the intoxicating influences born in the witcheries of those lovely maidens who made up such a tiara of attractiveness all wore made to dream of a lost Eden restored in all of its pristine beauty and attractiveness, where flowers breathe the sweetest perfume of delight and song birds sing their purest carolings of rapture and enchantment.

Our worthy and most excellent and deservedly popular young townsman, J. D. Gold, and his lovely and most estimablo young bride, neo Miss Inez White, reached Wilson on Tuesday afternoon and wero driven to tho elegant homo of Elder P. D.

CHARLES A. DANA GETS A SALARY OF $50,000 A YEAR.

Other New York Journalists lieceive Princely Salaries—Keick of The Herald, Carvallio of The World, Lord of The Sun and

Nicholson of The Tribune.

[Special Correspond! net-.]

Nh\\ YOKK. April —Charles A. Dana, editor oi the New York Sun, if the word of these who ought io know what they are talking about is to be relied upon, is the best paid journalist in America, if not in the world. It is said that lie receives a salary of oou a year. If this be true, he pays a liamlsonu* part, of this out of his own pocket, as he is one of the Jar.ice owners in The Sun corporation, although lie does not own a controlling interest in the stock.

This great salary may possibly account for his often expressed objection to exdianirinu- his desk for a post of honor in

And there was another attractive visitor strels died, Charley Backus, 1 think it in the handsome person of tho radiant was, Carvalho was sent to collect some of and snarkling Miss .Tacksie Daniol of Tarboro, whose animated powers gave additional brilliancy to the scene and imparted increased enjoyment to the delightful occasion. "And thus ends our imperfect account," says tho young man in Wilson, lie is too modest. His "account" is about tho most perfect tiling of its kind that "journali rer produced.— New York Tin

Dana has been suggested us a candidate for the presidency he has always declined tho preferred honor, saying that, no post is more honorable- or useful than the editorship of a great newspaper.

Then are several other editors in New York who receive salaries large enough to make ollice holding unseductive. Within the past fort night I have made a careful attempt to obtain for publication the salaries paid to the leading journalists of this city. 1 give the figures as they were given lo me. The reader may choose between the highest and the lowest, figures as his judgment dictates. All that I can say is that 1 have thrown out all estimates which seemed to be at variance with the 1 ruth.

Mr. Carvallio's Career.

Probably next to Mr. Dana the best paid joiii-nalist, in New York is Mr. S. S. Carvalho of The World. Thirteen years ago Mr. Carvalho was a reporter on the :taff of The Sun. He was one of the most reliable reporters in thecit.v. conscientious, industrious and persevering. He was a good but. not brilliant writer, but he sel-

flu famous stories which the funmaker had made his own. Karly that evening he brought his story into Tim Sun ollice. Itcame to Mr. Clark, the night city editor, in tho course of time and threw that talented gentleman Into a cold fit. The jests were all there, but. they were not. funny—not one of hem.

The next morning, however, the "story" occupied a column in The Sun and was the most brilliant ono published upon the subject. Mr. Clark had rewritten the article from beginning to end. Perhaps it is because Mr. Carvalho sees only the serious side of life that he is Mr. Pulitzer's perI sona.l representative in the groat World esI tablishment ami receives a salary which is e,st imated from $1 .".000 to 9*25,DUO a year,

I give credit to the larger amount, He went with Mr. Pulitzer as the first city editor of The Evening World eight I years ago. Later on he became managing editor of that very prosperous paper, and then he was transferred to tho parent plant as general manager of the finances. His power is almost absolute, and he is said to be closer to the owner than any other man in his employ. When one considers that it costs about §10,000 a day to publish The

World and Mr. Carvalho can spend or save $10,000 in a month without making any appreciable difference in the paper to the reader, a salary of $25,000 does not seem to bo exorbitant, especially its The World is credited with making a profit of nearly ?1,000,000 a year.

Mr. Pulitzer's Favorites.

I am told that Farrelley, the managing editor of The World, gets but $7,500. Those figures would be ridiculously small if it were not for the fact that the managing editorship of The World since the days of Colonel Cockerill and Ballard Smith is more or less of a nominal position and is rarely held long by any occupant. Within the past four years there have been at. letist half a dozen managing editors. In The World office there are always two or three men who are near'' to Mr. Pulitzer. They take turns in spending a short timo with the owner of the paper at his country place in Bar Harbor or his hotel in Paris, and they are for tho time managing editors in all but name. It is commonly reported that Arthur Brisbane receives $150 a week from The World. He is supposed to bo nearest of all to Mr. Pulitzer, except Mr. Carvalho. Ho began his work on Tho Sun as a reporter in 1884 and soon became its star reporter. Ho then went to Europe and began Tho Sun's cablo Sunday letter. Soon after Amos J. Cummings started Tho Evening Sun lie became its managing editor. Then, it is said, he quarreled with Publisher Laffan and left Tho Sun's service to take editorial charge of The Sunday World. Ho has been with Mr. Pulitzer ever since, most of tho time in Europe. As a descriptive writer Mr. Brisbano lias few equals in New York, and were he to leave, Mr. Pulitzer's employ ho cotdd readily earn $100 a week as a reporter upon space.

By "space" I mean "by the column." Most New York newspapers pay their reporters and special writers according to tho amount of matter that tliey write. Tho pay varies from $4 to $8 a column, with special prices for special pieces of work. Sometimes a newspaper will pay $25 or avon $100 a column for an oxclusivo artislo of groat news value. The usual prico on a morning paper is $8 a column. That la the rate in The Herald, World and Sun

doni was "left." in securing- news. He has it rather cynical vein of thought, but ab- to tho man whose name began with "A" solutelv no sense of humor. I remember and so on down. Mr. White soon learned at when one of ho groat California mln-

offiees. The Recorder pays -57, The Timed and Tribune £(.5, and The Press, Journal and Advertiser *•".

Young ^Ir. Keick's Kise

There is probably more mystery regarding the salary id to W. C. I'eick, city' editor of The Herald, than there is regarding the coinpensat ion -f any other newspaper editor in New Y-It- variously:, put all the way from in.()()() to s.-.'Tj.ooO. I think that it is not less than Slo.noo, its he is by far the ablest executive man that Mr. Bennett has had in his employ within the past 1.1 years. Mr. Keick's farcer reads like a story from a book of l'airy tales. About 1 ssT. when lie was less than® 25 years old, Mr. Keick was the Camden"correspondent of The Herald. II-1 had previously been employed upon lie local staffs of one or two Philadelphia newspapers, ps but was db-eharged for incum: o-nc.'. and then Mr. Beick went to Canid'-n and corresponded for The Herald. Most of my readers will remember that about eighth years ago a family of Camden youngsters were-bitten by a mad dog. The Herald raised money and sent the youngsters to Paris, where they were successfully treated by Pasteur. The whole scheme was of Mr. Iv'ick's invention, audit ati:-a- ',ed the attention of Mr. Bennett, who had the. young man transferred to the Vew York office. Shortly afterward he sen! for him and made him the Pome correspondent of fe Tho Herald. Later on he served an ap-s prenticeship on the Paris Herald, and when Mr. Bennett started the London Herald Mr. Beiek took charge of it, organizing the stall". From this post he was promoted to the news editorship of tho-.. home paper and then was made city editor.

The city editor is virtually the managing ?o editor of The Herald, ami in his present place Mr. Heick has demonstrated his own ability anl ti soundnessof his employer's judgment. This .judgment, I niav remark without any disparagement of Mr. Benneft's talent as a newspaper proprietor, has nor always 1 en as fortunate as it in the present case. Here is a story which I have often heard and never heard denied. Many years ago Mr. Bennett is said to have met a young man named White, who was a very clever bank clerk at that time. Mr. Bennett was pleased with the young man and made him city editor of The I ierald. In all newspaper offices the city editor assigns the various reporters every (layabout noon to look after the several happenings which are to be recorded in the morrow's paper. The political reporter, for instance, is sent to interview Mr. Piatt perhaps about his latest political venture, the Wall street reporter to talk with .1. Pierpont Morgan about- the bond syndicate, the star sj descriptive writer to write the introduction of the Labor day parade, anil so on. Each reporter is sent out- upon that piece $ of work which he is best fitted to do.

All Aljdiabet.ie il I„ist.

On this day of Mr. White's debut in met- fe ropnlitaii journalism he kept a dozen or more of The I lerald's brightest young men waiting at their desks until long after 3 o'clock. Then. Harold Bayniond. the'"crack" descript ive writer, who always reeeived his assignment- among the first, sj went to the foot of the hron-' and addressed ZS31". White, .siying. "Mr. White, will you have anything for me 1o do todayr" "'Let me s.-e. your name is"— ii '"B.iyinoiisl, sir," supplied the reporter. '"Ah, ye.-, Mr. Raymond. I shall have something for you presently! I am only down to tho N's now."

Mr. Whito had writ fen on one large sheet of fool sea',) list of his assignments, and on another he had set down a list of his reporters iu alphabet leal order, and he had iven thi! most important story of the day

how to do things better, and ho is today one of the most: valued and experienced men in Mr. Rennett's employ.

Regarding the salaries paid to other leading men on the New York dailies I am told that tho runabout as follows:

Chester S. Lord of The Sun. from $10,000 to Si.-),uoo Henry Carey of The Times, from $1,000 to $5,000 Foster Coates of The Advertiser and Commercial Advertiser, from $5,000 to $7,500 George Dickinson of The Telegram, $3,500 George H. Fleming of The Mail and Express, from $3.5U0 to $5,000 F. A. Dormeka of The Evening World, $1,000 George Bartholomew of The News, $3,500 Julius Chambers of Tho Recorder, from $5,000 to $ii,o()0 Mr. Nicholson of The Tribune, from $10,000 to $12,000 Mr. Wardmau of The Press, $1.0n:i .T. 1. C. Clark of The Journal, $5,000. It is said that John W. Keilar of The Recorder gets $125 a week E. L. Godkin and Horace White of The Evening Post, $10.0(10 each, besides their largo proprietary interests in tho paper, and Lemuel Ely Quigg of Tho Press, $5,000.

Subeditors and "copy" readers on th» morniug papers average from $80 to $60 aweek. Tito average in the large offices is $40 for a copy reader. On the afternoon pajiers tho average is alxiut $10 less.

A Dream Fulfilled.

A young man living in Florence dream* ed that ho had been bitten and mortally wounded by tho marble.lion which stood with open jaws in front of a certain church. Walking past tlio church with a few friondson the following day, he told them of hia dream and placed his hand in tho lion's.... mouth, with' the words, "Now bite mo.'* At that very instant he felt ti violont pain, for a scorpion that lay concealed in tha lion's jaws had stung him so severely that* ae died in a few houjfe.
