LOUISVII.T.K, Sept. 13.—The demonstrations in tlie line of parades beiug over, the 29tli national encampment began its business session at 10 a. in, also the Woman's Relief Corps and the Ladies' circle of the G. A. R. These meetings were attended only by delegates. Mean rime the veterans met in zorps, bi igaues and xvgimental reunions all over the city.

g£ IVAN N. WALKER.

'SiS

The campfires with fireworks and

f/' other demonstrations continue every night during the week, elaborate programs with music and recitations being announced up to Saturday night.

The army nurses were entertained yesterday, and the. Daughters of Vet--erans gave a brilliant reception to G. A. R. executives and other visitors, a' Music Hall, where the encampment met, has a seating capacity of 3,250, .and every seat, in the house was occult pied. None but Gk A. R. men and accredited delegates were admitted to the hall. The delegates entitled to vote in .- the meeting occupied the main floor, 'while the visiting veterans remained in the galleries. Tli^re was considerable delay, and it was nearly 11 o'clock when the delegates were all at their -posts. General Lawler, the command-eer-in-chief, was loudly cheered. As coon as quiet wa's restored he formally called the meeting to order.

Henry Watterson, whose oration at Pittsburg last year brought the encampment- to Louisville, was escorted to the footlights a ad addressed the grand encainpment in a speech full of patriotism and good taste.

Mr. Watterson was frequently and ^loudly applauded during the course of his speech.

In response to this address, Past Cornitwatidfir- :L William Warner of iKansas City spoke briefly. He said the boys in blue would never forget the Vi generous and loyal hospitality of the

good people of Louisville. When he had done talking Comif, mander Lawler said he took grear pleas-

Tire in introducing James Whit-comb £-'%Iiiley, the Hoosier poet. Mr. Riley then '/''read an original poem.

Following this Commander Lawler 3^'^said tlie comrades had decided to honor Past Commander Geneval John Palmer

Albany, IN. Y., by presenting liini with a tuken of their regard for the ^faithful performance of his duty while he was commander.

Judge Cochran would formally pre--sent the token. The token was a solid silver tea set. Judge Cochran spoke briefly and to the point. He was sure the boys could not have presented the gift to any one more deserving.

In accepting the present General Palmer spoke feelingly. "I can scarcely find words to express my gratitude to -you, my comrades," he said. "1 shall always keep it and shall always cherish it as the most precious of all my possessions."

The next feature to the preliminary program was the presentation of a gavel made of gold, silver and copper and •studded with diamonds, rabies and sapphires to Commander Lawler. It was presented him by Senior Vice Commander (J'Leary of Montana in behalf of the Montana division. It was given because General Lawler was the first commander-in-chief who ever visited the Montana posts.

Commander-in-chief Lawler iriada his annual address and was loudly applauded. After paying a compliment xo the beautiful Falls City and her treatment of the assembled hosts, he stated that he had traveled 36,000 miles the past year, and had attended 38 of the 45 department encampments. He liad attended meetings in eveuy state «ave two, i. e., Florida-and Arizona.

On the subject of pensions the com-maiider-in-ciiicf said: "We know that all the legislation enacted by congress in the interest of the old soldier has been brought about by or through t[ influence of this great, powerful organization—the Grand Army of the Republic—and those of us who are more iortunate physically than others, profiose to keep it up just as long as we iv A a re no as in iiyy new pension legislation, we do ask jind insist that when a law is passed by congress that its provisions, as intended by them, shall be carried out and not misconstrued and misapplied by any man or set of men of any party who may be in power. "I am not a lawyer, but I know the verdict of aliy court of loyai men would be that after a man has furnished the proofs and has been granted a pension, that pension can not be taken away imm him without due process of law. know this is beinjj done, however, till over tlie»land, for I have seen the evidences of it in every department in which I have been—pensions reduced from $12 to $8 and from to $6, and aHany cut off entire. Then again, a Juan who applied for a pension two and rthree years ago will receive a notice 6)iat his claim is rejected, then notified that his case is reopened and allowed, tmt only from the time of reopening, thus cheating a worthy man out of $300

Alany of cur comrades thus dealt

with are not able to bring suit to test the constitutionality of this sort, of ruintg of a pension commander. I would, therefore, recommend that the incoming counsel of administration be empowered to select a case and prosecute ihe same. It has been the custom of o'.-o.'tuTuie'-U!' co unpaiut r. coiuuMuSoO to prepare some testimonial for the retiring commander-in-chief. I recommend t-Iiut no such committee be appointcd !'l?i° ye-v. hut that this inoiiey be used in making a test case as to the constitutionality of the act of June 27, IS'.tQ."

On the question of^Decoration day the commander-in-chief said: "Let us see to it that the day is kept as a memorial day: let us denounce in our own communities ail}' desecration of the day, such as races and games, excursions, balls and and other amusements—of which thei'f is too much on this day— the tM"N-t fv j* ro forget the objects of its and make- ir a day of

imp-

Lansing, Mich., reported that 20,310 sc.hooihous'js were living the American flag. .Surgeon General O. M. Weeks of Alan on made an interesting report, praising the establishment of soldiers' orphans' homes, and (Quartermaster General J. W. Burst of Illinois said that the receipts of the counsel of administration daring the year, including balance on hand in September, 1S94, were $33,427 and the disbursements §21,093. Of the balance on hand of $12,333 a sum of $5,733 is credited to the Grant monument fund, $231 to the Sherman monument fund, and $917 to the flag fund. There ure no accounts unpaid, wliile the organization has $16,000 invested in bonds.

At the afternoon session each department presented its name for the committee to frame resolutions on the death of the young militiamen killed by the explosion of the caisson Wednesday. The committee was directed to attend the funeral in a body.

The roll was called for nominations for the next annual encampment. Colonel Albert D. Shaw of New York presented the name of Buffalo. L. E. Brewster of Denver presented the name of that city. H. A. Castle of St. Paul renewed the invitation which St. Paul had ser.t to the encampment one year ago. and told how at that time she had withdrawn in favor of Louisville, and W. W. French of Tennessee extended an invitation for the next encampment at Nashville.

Tlie first ballot resulted: Nashville, 33 Denver, 103 Buffalo, 226 St. Paul, 393. The vote was made unanimous and Commander Lawler declared that the next annual encampment would be held at St. Paul.

W. A. Ketciiam of Indiana presented the name of Colonel Ivan N. Walker of Indianapolis for commander-in-chief as a representative of that fearless and sturdy loyalty that rescued the nation. He was a man who stood firmly when unmerciful disaster seemed to follow and fasten upon the armies. He had fought at Richmond, Perryville, and suliered in prison.

Ciarkson of Nebraska said his

department had presented his name as a candidate for commauder-iu-cMef. He wouid, however decline to be a candidate against Comrade Walker and moved that the rules be suspended and the adjutant general be directed to cast the unanimous vote of the encampment for Comrade Walker. Mr. Clarkson's action produced a thunder of applause. The motion prevailed with a hurricane of cheers. When order was restored Commander Lawler formally declared Colonel VVaHcer elected. He directed some comrades to escort the new commander to the platform, which was done midst enthusiastic shouts and cheers of the old veterans' on all sides.

Colonel Walker, in thanking the comrades, said that he deepty felt the high compliment which they had bestowed upon him in electing him to the highest office within their gift. He felt almost oppressed at the thought of succeeding such a long line of able men who had filled the office. He would, howevor, devote his entire energies to performing his duties.

In the contest for senior vice commander, both the candidates were from Kentucky, they were General E. H. Hobson and Michael Mint-on, General Hobson being elected. C. E. Cosgrove of Washing was elected junior vice commander over J. O. Gregg of Montana.

The gentlemen of tlie encampment almost completed their Work while the ladies of tle two auxiliaries did not get much done. There has been considerable agitation about uniting them in t-liis year of reunited brotherhood and citizenship, but the ladies of the auxili arifcs are as far apart as ever and in spirit, if not in purpose, tliey will remain divided. The Ladies' Circle devoted to reports and in discussions therewith for the perfection and extension of their organization.

The Woman's Relef Corps had the trouble between the factious of Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Sherwood at Canton, O., exemplified by the sheriif, who entered without tiie password to serve an injunction of tlie courts on the national officers, restraining them from ousting Mrs. Clark. When the sheriff entered the ladies would not tell him who were the officers, but a lriend of Mrs. Clark soon pointed out the officers, ami the order of the court was served. Mrs. Tyler, the wife ot the mayor of Louisville, delivered a fine address of welcome to the city, as did Mrs. General S. B. Buckner to the state and the south.

The opening session was devotee® to welcome addresses and resposes and to the hearing ot the annual reports of the national officers.

From the information furnished in the annual reports of the 18th national convention of the Women's Relief corps it is evident that that organization is in a prosperous condition.

SAVED THE CUP.

The Defender Wins Hie Third of tlip Serifs of International Yacht Kacvs.

NRW YORK, Sept. 13.—The international series of yacht races between the Defender and the Valkyrie for the America's cup is ended. Ou the whole it has been an extraordinary series, and while the result is satisfactory to the Amerieau people, two at- least of the coiit5.3L.^ wCAJLU to make up the match were not. The Defender won in a clear race Saturday in Tuesday's race she crossed the line behind the English boat, but was awarded the race on a foul yesterday she had a walk-over, as the' Valkyrie withdrew from the racs just after crossing the line.

Lord Dunraven had said Wednesday night that he would withdraw his boat on the morrow if an absolutely clear course was not provided. He claimed that during the previous race his boat had been greatly interfered with, and as everything depended upon the outcome of the third of the series, he adhered to that decision so closely that Valkyrie merely crossed the starting line and then retired from the contest.* Defender, who was well in advance when the handicap gun was fired, continued on her journey and went over the course well within the time limit. By her three straight victories Defender retains the historic cup for America.

So far as the committee was concerned it seemed impossible to do more to secure open water than it had already done, for when the preparatory gun was fired, the nearest, boat to the racers was fully half a mile away, and the great majority of the excursion steamers and other c?:aft were much farther off in the distance.

Later in the afternoon an attempt was made see Lord Dunraven. Ho was invisible. His friend and adviser, Rear Commodore Gleunie, was seen on the City of Bridgeport, the Valkyrie's tender. Mr. Glennie said that his lordship had gone away up into the country somewhere he did not know where. In answer to a question whether or not Dunraven would sail in a race, or a series of races at Newport or Marblehead, away from the maddening crowd of New York, for a cup, Mr. Glennie replied that he thought it very unlikely. He hardly thought that his lordship would again sail the Valkyrie on this side of the water, though he eould not state what would be done with the Valkyrie in the immediate future.

AT THE TREASURY.

Hut Little Change Made in the Gold Reserve, Standing at 699,512,000. WASHINGTON. Sept. 18.—So far as re

ported to the treasury department there were no withdrawals of golj^, yesterday at New York, nor were th^re any deposits of gold except in tne regular course of business. The true amount of the reserve .*t the close of business was $99,512,000. At Chicago there was a deposit of *75,000 in gold in exchange for small notes, and the balance of the net gain of £142,000 was obtained at the assay office.

The dem-ud for Columbian half dollars in exchange for gold at par at the subtreasuries of the United States, except San lvancisco, continues without abatement. At the present time there remains unsold only $822,000. These halves are perfectly new, never having been in circulation, and have the same legal tender and redemption qualities as other half dollar pieces.

Latest Outrage in China.

SHANGHAI, Sept. 13. The British consul at Ven-Chow, in the province of Che-Kiaug, has been stoned by a mob. Literature inciting against the English has been circulated by the officials. The inquiry at Ku-Cheng is being obstructed by the tactics of the officials lieade by the viceroy, who is trying to exonerate the prisoners in the lace of the most damning testimony.

HE HAD PITY.

Jabez Wilson, whose 52 years of life had been passed in single blessedness, had little in common with the rest of the world.

His faults were many and his virtues few. His two redeeming points—call them virtues if you will—were generosity verging on weakness in individual cases and a love for music.

Late one night he came out of St James hall, buttoned his coat up round his neck, dived his hands into his pockets and made for home. On the way he entered a cafe and took a cup of coffee.

As he sipped the beverage his ear, ever on the alert for music, caught tlio sounds of a voice that was at once rich and melodious.

Jabez listened attentively for five minutes, during which time the song continued, with short intervals of silence. At length it stopped altogether. Jabez asked the waiter attending him to fetch in the person singing.

The waiter returned in less than a minute ushering in a young man of distinctly Italian east of countenance, whom he introduced as Luigi, the bottle washer. "Well, my man, yon have an extremely fine voice. Did you know that? With due care and rigid training there ought to be both fame and fortune in it. You would like to be something better than a bottle washer all your life, eh, mv man?"

Luigi, in a wondering sort of way, nodded "That's right—-that's Here is my card. Come and see me my house tomorrow a* fealf want to Rave a serious talk with you. Can you come?" "Yes, sir—that is, no, sir. Not tomorrow. I work till 11 every night during the week." "Oh, oh! Such is the irony of fate," muttered Jabez. "Can you oomo on Sunday?" "Yes, sir, I will come.

True to his word, Luigi, clothed in his Sunday garments, found himself in Mr. Wilson's drawing room the following Sunday evening. "Luigi, you have a most charming voica It is at present in what I may term an embryo form. The foundation is there in all its strentgth, and a couple of years' careful training will place you without a doubt in one of the topmost branches of the vocal trea "You must make a point of cultivating your voice on every possible occasion, Luigi. Avoid those articles of food which I shall give you a list of, that your vocal chords may retain the sweetness, strength and fullness that now mark them. "Your clothes, too, are unsuited to the pupil of a vocal professor. You must fit yourself out like a gentleman, Luigi. You must exercise care and take a prido in your personal appearance. In short, bo in every respect worthy of your profession.

As Luigi's profession was that of bottle washer at an Italian restaurant, ho naturally failed to see how he could well give further evidence of his occupation than by the suit in which he appeared before this strange gentleman. And he said so. "Dear me. Of course. I must explain to you, Luigi, what I propose to do. I am too hasty. First and foremost, you like music?' "Iam an Italian," was |he modest reply. "Grand. A most fitting answer. Now we will come to businesa Would you like to give up your present menial occupation and become, first, the pupil of a musician, and then a master of the art you will excel in?" "That is beyond my hopes, sir. I have no money."

Jabez Wilson threw up his hands. "That's all right I will see to that little matter. Give me the assurance that you will put your whole heart into the work I have cut out for you and will do your best I ask for nothing mora''

A few days later Luigi left his situation and became the protege of Mr. WU-. son. To say that' Luigi was gra'te£f$£ wor.ld be to put the feeling he evinced toward his benefactor in very mild terms. He could find no way of expressing his gratitude beyond making himself as ix feet in his art as it became possible fur him to do. "Luigi," raid Mr. Wilson one day, "I am delighted to tell you that it is now beyond th capabilities of English masters to teacn you further. It remains for the masters vi your nativo land to instill into you tl at little required to render you their equal, if not their superior. I have docidcd therefore to take you to Naples, where wo will spend the next year or two.''

For the first time since their odd acquaintance Luigi failed to hail an announcement for his benefit with any sign of pleasure or satisfaction. Ho looked gloomy and hesitated to speak. "You have always been extremely kind and good to mo, Mr. Wilson, cannot by any possible means express my gratitude. But the suggestion you have made, although entirely for my good, fills me with j^.in. I cannot jleave England, because—because I am going to get married.'' "The dickens you are!" roared the infuriated bachelor, mad with raga "This, sir, is the way in which you I how your gratitude. You Italian dog, frou scoundrel, you"—

He stoppod short Wha£ on idiot he

wae. Luigi was only flesh and blood, and young blood at that "Luigi," he began after the silence of the moment, "is this girl of yours a suitable partner, to accompany you on your upward career through life? You will stand at the head of your art, and you will move in the highest circles of European socieiy. "She, whatever her post, in life now, may be ill fitted to grace the drawing rooms of the aristocracy or to sit by your side in the carriage that draws you to your mansion. "You love her now she is everything to you. Time may be, however, when you may be led to make odious comparisons between her simplicity and the winning faces of beautiful women." "My kind benefactor, that is impossible. I shall always love Maggie as much as I do now. jabez Wilson sighed. It was a sad blow to his vanity nnd to h:r jxr.co cf mind. "Think it "When the first ing are passed. your lowly girl your and from 1.c mind.

I.e will scon put you (Arv to mo tomorrow

a-nd let me know whiit you intend doing." The next day Mr. "Wilson received a visit from Maggie. She carnc in tears to beg his consent, his heart was- touched at the sipht cf a woman in sorrow, and reviling himself for a cold blooded monster lie told her in an outbnrjit of geiierosity h: go ami marry Luigi as many time* as she liked.

After a {wc:ivei -ion'.h spent in Ifaly Ltiigi became peifcet. Bis first appearance in public was made as Gerardo, and as he retreated behind the curtains that night- old Jabe:-: Wilson waited to press his hands and to tell him that his "dream was at last realized.

Jabez Wilson walked out of his solicitor's office penniless. The bank of which he was principal shareholder had failed, and this, in conjunction with a few minor disasters, had robbed him of every penny he had possessed.

He had never in his life done a stroke at work and was not even eapdtfJe of a clerical position.

The apartments he had occupied were given up. The club was never again to see him or hear what had become of him. The fine old wines in his cellar fetched sufficient to pay his long standing rent, with a surplus to keep him in food and lodgings for a few weeks— that was alL

From his scanty store he drew a penny every day to search the papers for news of Luigi's success. He could not bring himself to write to him and to tell him everything. It was pleasant enough to know that the man whom he had dragged from obscurity should at that moment be making Europe vibrate with the splendor of his voice. One night as he crouched over the fire in the dosshouse he frequented reading the paper a short paragraph at the foot of a column caught his ey£. "Early yesterday morning the body of a woman was found in the Grand canal at Venice. She is said to be the wife of Signor Luigi, the well known singer, with whom she is supposed to have led a wretched life. There are no marks of violence on the body, and the authorities have passed a verdict of suicide while temporarily insane."

Jabez Wilson's forecast had been realized- only too fully, and the broken down man cried like a child.

A week later ho stood outside the doss house with exactly a penny in his pocket. Ho stood wondering what ho should do, when his musical instincts, which had been crushed and had lain dormant for so long, arose within him. He hurried along the street, entered a shop and purchased a tin whistle with his one remaining copper.

An hour later and ho walked slowly along the middle of the road, his threadbare coat buttoned up around his neck, an old battered hat pressed tight'lV do"Vvn over the straggling gray hair that blew in the cold wind, and his dry lips pressed against the whistle.

He was playing "Homo,Sweet Home'' —that was all he knew. In front of a resplendent hotel he stood and played, with one foot on the pavement A tall, black bearded gentleman, evidently a foreigner, wrapped in a priceless fur coat, came down the steps of the hotel, in company with a beautiful woman, under the full glare of the lamp.

Instinctivelyt.be instrument fell from the lips of the player as ho muttered half aloud: "Luigi!"

The Italian peered into the pale, pinched, upturned face. "So you have come to this, eh?'?1' he asked in a whisper, lest his companion should hear, at the same time drawing half a crown from his pocket, "my unfortunate friend."

He turned abruptly, half ashamed, when the woman by his side told him to come away from the beggar. "I come, Mirand. Then, as she took his ami and lie handed her into a brougham, "I have pity for these poor musicians. "—Pearson's Weekly. ..

It is well known that limewater has a beneficial effect on the growth of children, and in countries where the drinking water is impregnated with salts of lime the men are apt to bo tail. An English medical authority states that for a perfect simitary diet alkaline water is needed for every person who eats heavily of moat, and this means nearly every one excepting the vegetarian.
