A Times special from Washington eays: A more important issue than that over the Venezuelan boundary may be raised soon between the United Slates and Great Britain if reeent reports from Nicaragua shall be confirmed by later developments. The substance of these reports, sustained by important evidence, is that British interests are reaching out for the control of the Nicaraguan canal, and that the government is beingurged to annul the charter to the existing corpora tiou. The reports of British intrigue in Nicaragua which have been sent to the state department art* likely to receive serious attention before the transmission of the report of the Nicaraguan commission to congress, and may give a sensational turn to the expected special message of the president on the subject. A rich Knglishmnn named Morgan for some years lias been representing a syndicate of British capitalists who have control of nearly oil the transportation routes by rail and water throughout the republic. Mr. Morgan and his supporters have been recently suggesting that the United States and the Nicaragua Canal company are altogether too slow in pushing the work on the canal and that the annulment of the existing charter is justified by their deiay. Their proposition is substantially that the government of Nicaragua withdraw the concessions granted to the American company and grant concessions to a British company for the construction of the canal. If this should appear to be too brazen an interference with the rights of the United States, men of Nicaraguan birth might be put at the head of the new company, while British financiers controlled its actual operation and pulled the strings which would govern the movement of the native officials. It is believed in Nicaragua that the syndicate headed by Mr. Morgan does not expect to raise the $100,000,000 necessary to complete (he canal without the backing of the British government, and it is declared that this involves the most dangerous feature of the situation. The United States, it is believed, in such a case would not permit the Monroe doctrine to he construed so narrowly as to justify the increase of European power in Central America contrary to the interests of the United States even with the consent of the officials who temporarily might shape the policy of the country in which such aggressions took place. If the efforts of British capitalists to secure the annulment of the American charter seem likely to produce tangible results, representations of a serious nature are likely to be made by the state department to the governments of both Nicaragua and Great Britain against extension of British influence in the construction of the canal.

NEW FUNERAL EQUIPMENT. Combined Hearse and Carriage to Curtail Livery IIHU. A company has been formed at Baltimore, Md., to conduct funerals upon a novel and economical plan. It will furnish a combined hearse and carriage for conveying the remains and 20 people. It is built something on the order of an omnibus, though bearing the somber appearance of a hearse. The front section is to lie set aside for the mourners, with an entrance on either side just back of the front wheels. There is a row of seats on each side of the doors to accommodate six persons. It is trimmed in black broadcloth with heavy drapery. The tear compartment is separated from the front by a solid partition. The seats are placed lengthwise, as in a street car, and have a seating capacity for 14 persons. Friends of the family and pall bearers occupy tins compartment, the. door being at the rear end of the vehicle. By this arrangement the friends will be entirely separated from the family ingoingfrom the home to the cemetery. The casket is on the top of the conveyance. It is drawn up an incline into position by noiseless ropes and pul-

leys.

Schooner'* Long: Life,

Twenty-six years is a good age for a schooner. The Julia Ann, of Winter Harbor, Me., has been in active service for that period and is said by her captain to be even now os good as she ever *vas. The insurance companies back op the captain's statement, too. In her long life the schooner has sailed over a good part of the world's salt water, and is well known in every har-

The noise of war’s alarms should not distract attention front the marvelous triumph of science which is reported from Vienna, it is announced that Prof Boutgen, of Wurzburg university, lias discovered a light which, for the purposes of photography, will penetrate wood, flesh an<l most ether organic substances. The professor has succeeded in photographing metal weights which were inclosed in a wooden case: also a man's hand, which shows only the bones, the flesh being invisible. It is said that the discovery is simple. The professor takes a so-called Crooke's pijre ta vacuum glass pipe), with an induction current going through it) and, by means of rays which the pipe emits, photographs on ordinary photographic plates, in contrast with the ordinary rays of light, these rays penetrate organic matter and other opaque substances just as ordinary rays penetrate glass. He has also succeeded in photographing hidden metals with a cloth thrown over the camera. The rays penetrated not only the wooden case containing the metals, but the fabric in front of the negative. The professor is already using his discovery to photograph broken limits and bullets in human bodies.

OREGON NEARLY

READY. Prepared

Illg HaUtestilp Will Soon lie

for Active Service.

The battleship Oregon at San Francisco will soon be ready for sea. The last of the armor plates for the turrets have been shipped from the Bethlehem works in the east for the Union iron works, and according to the contract the vessel is to be completed within 90 days after the receipt of the plates. The armor for the sponsons and barbettes has long been in position and nearly all of the eight-inch and the smaller guns have been mounted. The four 13-inch guns that are to be protected by the turrets cannot he mounted until the armor plates are in place. One of the turrets was finished a few days ago, but the big weapons will not be placed in it until both turrets are ready; then all four guns will be

mounted at once.

Nearly all that remains to be done to the big ship is to complete that one turret, and it will only require a tew days after the armor plates arrive to do the work. The engines and other machinery of the vessel have been tested and found to be perfect, and the big battleship can now be made ready for service in a few days. TOO LATE TO SAVE HIS LOVE. IJrokmeyer’s Sweetheart Spirited Away and Placed in a Convent. Across the river from Kocheport, Mo., in Cooper county the people are very much wrought up over the sensational finale of a love affair in which the central figures are John Brokmeyer, son of a prominent business man of Booneville, and Miss Kate Franken, heir to farm lands and real estate in

Cooper county.

The young couple were to have been married recently, and the girl’s guardian and uncle, Andrew Smith, hearing of it, locked her up in a room and took her clothes away and drove young Brokmeyer from the premises when he called to demand the girl, who is considerably over age. Then Smith called in l)r. Burt to confirm lus allegation of the girl's insanity, but the doctor failed to coincide in this view, and instead conveyed a message from the girl to her lover to rescue her ivy any means. Brokmeyer applied for a writ of habeas corpus. In the meantime the girl was spirited away and taken to St. Louts and placed in a convent,

where she is now.

A NEW DAY TO CELEBRATE. Daughter* of Revolution Observe Wedding Anniversary of WaHhlngton. The New York city chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution gave a reception at Sherry’s to celebrate the anniversary of the wedding day of George Washington. Mrs. Donald McLean, regent of the chapter, received the guests, assisted by a mimlver of prominent members of the organization. The guest of honor was Mrs. Adlai Stevenson, wife of the vice president, who ih the president general ot the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Brief addresses were also made by Charles Dudley Warner, W. D. Howells, Gen. Grant Wilson, who spoke on “Mount Vernon', the Home of Washington,” and Bishop Henry C. Potter.

THOUSANDS FOR A BOOK. Eight I'ag.* nml a Kara Literary Curiosity. On the steamship Spree, which arrived a few days ago, there was imported a thin little volume of only eight uages, the appraised value of \. hich w as i.’.OOO, says the New York World. This is a Latin trauslat it n of a letter written by Christopher Columbus, giving a report of his discovery of what lie supposed to have been only some islands off the coast of India. Stephen Plannoek, a printer of Hoiro, stiuek off a few copies of the trai lation in 1493. Not nil of these are nov. to be found. In the Barlow sale t i Americana at the American art galleries in 1S89, a copy of tlie Planno. k edition, identical with the one that came on t lie Spree, was sold to Brayton Ives for $2,290. There, is a dispute among the authorities us to whether or no the edition of the Columbian letter is thefiiM printed reproduction. Mr. Fames, of the Lenox library, says that no two authorities agree us to the priority of the date of the publication of Columbus’ report. Hurrisse stoutly maintains that this Piannock edition is the third appearance of the letter, while I!. I! Major.of the British museum, advances arguments, said to lie both logical and weighty, to show that it is the first. Fllis, in the Iluth catalogue, claims that Major has proved his impression to be the first. John Knssell Bartlett also placed this particular edition first in the John Carter Brown library. But, however much the antiquarians tuny disagree among themselves, there is no doubt as to the great value of the book, which is printed in clear type on heavy paper. The dimensions of the pages are 7 1-16 inches “full" by 5 3-1G. Some of the leaves have a watermark, the device being a pair of rcales. If printed in the World the letter would occupy about a column and two-thirds.

"COFFIN NAILS’’ TO BE CHEAPER

Cigarette War Is On and Is Likely to Hecomo » Bitter One. Cigarettes will possibly be as cheap us they are now plentiful. The other day the second of the opposition manufacturers to meet the tobacco trust in tlie cigarette field placed its cigarettes on sale in Chicago. They -ire matte iu St. Louis and are offered to jobbers in 1,000 lots 30 cents below the trust’s price, with tlie addition of a rebate of 12 per cent, or ten per cent, tiff for cash. The retail price of the packages is five cents, but in the bottom of each package a cent is placed, so the consumer pays four cents. Orders for 25,000,000 have been placed, it is claimed by the manufacturers. New York dispatches by private wire stated the same people propose to distribute several hundred thousand free packages in order to introduce the brand and worry the trust. No such purpose was expressed by the manufacturers’ agents to Chicago jobbers, but it is evident the war is to Vie fierce, for it was announced a small army of salesmen would be in the trade on Monday. AFTER FORTY-TWO YEARS. Man Return* to Spend lit* Declining Year* with the Wife of HD Youth. Czar Giddings and his wife were remarried the other day at Holland, Mich., after being separated 42 years. In 1853 Giddings went to California, leaving his wife. For 22 years Mrs. Giddings waited to hear something from her husband and then procured a divorce. Giddings drifted down in New Mexico with his brother, who became governor of the territory, liecently Giddings, now 76 years old, returned to Holland and was remarried *o ills wife by Justice Fairbanks, a brother of the bride. Giddings is well to do and will spend the balance of his life in Michigan. He gives no explanation of his long absence other than that lie had decided not to come home until he made a big fortune, and only came back now because lie saw the uselessness of trying •my longer. RENOUNCES THE WORLD. *.*fi*» OleUI:, Thompson, of St. I.oul*. Take* Hat-red Heart t ows. Miss Celeste Thompson, one of St. Louis’ wealthiest heiress and most accomplished young women, has taken the vows of the order of tlie Sacred Heart and dedicated her life and fortune to religious work. She will be known as Mine. Celeste, and on account of tlie wealth she brings to tlie order will be given a position of authority at once. Miss Thompson was graduated from tlie Convent of the Sacred Heart only two years ago and immediately thereafter made her debut in society, where she at onoe became a favorite. Her family have known of her disposition to renounc' the world for some time, but tlie step came as a great surprise to society. Miss Thompson is a daughter of the late Marklot Thompson and is related to the Chouleausand Maffits.

ITALY AND THE VATICAN.

All In the Family. The old house of the Aldens nt Duxbury, Mass.,built about 1659, is now occupied by the ninth John Alien in direct descent from the John whoSe pretty love story is so well Known. He has a little daughter, Priscilla Mullins, too, says a writer in the Boston Transcript, but her brother, the tenth John Alden, was killed by lightning in a storm last summer; so the line of John Alden is now broken.

How the lllooillr** aud I’nrqnal War 1* Waicrd. It is a raered maxim, handed down from nge to age by the sucoessors of St. Peter, that, whatever spiritual or teini>oral powers have once been placed within their hands shall tie kept intact and Unimpaired, says Macmillan’s Magazine. They do not admit defeat. What they do not possess de facto they at least posses* de jure. If they have lost the substance, they retain the shadow, and if their earthly kingdom has licen filched that loss, they say, will only he continued for a season, un'il that brighter day returns when all shall be restored. The holy Catholic church, It is said, can afford to stand and wait. An all-seeing providence will give her the victory nt last. In the belief of all true Catholics it is certain that she will eventually triumph us that the sun will rise again. Meanwhile, though she never hastes she never rests and she presses on her claims with a persistency which, if often silent, never flags. They are pushed unceasingly from hour to hour, from day to day, from year to year and if the outside, world can forget them or deride them the government of King Humbert never can. It has to face an unsleeping foe whom no good will can ever eoncilinte or appease, whose claims are incapable of compromise. Both demand the right to rule in the city of the Caesars and the victory of one side means: the inevitable and enduring humiliation of the other. So is waged the bloodless but unequal war. Yet, though the occupation of the quirinal is securely based on force, the Vatican has weapons in her arsenal of a less material kind with which she is well able to harass and nnnoy. A VALUABLE RAT, THIS. Keep* the Itouxe Free of Mice and Flay* the Violin Nicely. It is a well-known fact that rats and nice do not infest n house at the same time. Working upon tills hint as to the nature of rodents, N. K. I.aureson, of Vicksburg, has adopted a scheme by which he keeps himself riil of both pests. This he accomplishes, says the Philadelphia Times, by capturing a young rat and training him to catch mice. This singular mouser, whose name, by the way, is Czar, is doubtless the most successful one on record. He has been taught to pounce upon a mouse on short order, without fear and without fuvor, and he shows no mercy. Of course, he can follow the mice into close quarters, and never has been known to lose his quarry. Strange to relate, large rats htfve given the house the go-by also, seeming to understand that the place lickings to Czar, and that there must be no encroachment upon his prerogative. Laureson is very fond of his queer pet, and lias taught him many interesting tricks. Among others he, has trained him to handle a bow, and’with a miniature violin Czar manages to scrape the strings in a way that is not unmusical. Of course it has been impossible to teach him really to play n piece, but sitting up on his hind legs, with his fiddle grasped in his tiny claws. Czar produces a sort of half-screeching sound that is altogether weird and fantastic. Laureson is himself a violinist of no mean order, and Czar likes nothing better than to sit on bis master’s knee and listen to his playing.

Wf ULD NOT KISS THE BRIDE.

Consre»»niRn Coniln* YVa* Too Moile*t to Art a* Heat Man at a tVcddlnf?. One of the most modest members of congress is “Rob” Cousins, of Iowa. It is told that not many sessions ago Mr. Mercer, a member from Nebraska, still in the house, married a young lady well known in Washington. Inasmuch ns Cousins is an intimate friend of Mercer’s, says the Troy Times, both being born in Iowa, the latter thought it would be an excellent idea to have Cousins act ns best man at the wedding. Bob consented. The ceremony occurred. After it was over the minister kissed the bride, bridesmaids, ditto. The bride, supposing the best man would be glad of a similar courtesy extended to him, puckered up her lips to Bob in order that he might avail himself of the opportunity so graciously extended to him. When Mr. Cousins realized what was expected of him in the premises ho gave one look nt the bride, turned so red that even the darkest corner of the church became as light as noonday, bolted down the aisle and out of the church, leaving the bride in rather an embarrassed state of mind, to say nothing of the mingled feelings of surprise and bewilderment of the other members of the bridal pnrty’and friends. Both Mercer anil Cousins arc in the present congress, hut tlie hitter had rather talk on almost any subject than on certain incidents connected with tlie wedding of the gentleman from Nebraska.

From time to time cures have been announced, only to prove failures. That dread consumption can be cured, the Courier-Jour-nal has no doubt; and that its cure will ultimately bo discovered is equally certain. Let us hope that the well-known physician, Dr. Cyrus Edson, of New York, has already discovered it as he and other medical men believe that he has. His remedy is purified preparation of carbolic acid which hyperdermically injected into the blood destroys, it is claimed, not only the germs of consumption, but of many other diseases. If“aseptolin” will do what Dr. Edson believes it will do, it is a discovery whose importance has never been exceeded in all the history ot medical science. About Printers.
