dent there is not the eliphtet danger that the promised veneeance will ever come to a head. The Anarchists have learned their lesson."

ANARCHISTIC NOTES. Rev. Robert Collyer Thinks lie Knows a Remedy for the Dynamite Evil. New York. Not. 13. Chicago's recent judicial tragedy, its eanses and its probable results, tarnished the theme for several local divines lnX lecturers to-day. Rev. Dr. Robert C&Uyer look as his text, "Those Hapless Malefactors and on this topic addressed a large audience. He thought the scenes of last Friday bad touched the public at laree with a feeling of anger that the frightful crime for which the Anarchists had been executed should happen in this free country of ours. And the people of the lountry were filled with admiration for the brave policemen murdered in the discharge of their Snty, and with sorrow for their bereaved families. 'When the appellate courts affirmed the sentences of the condemned men. it was right that tbev should die. But their crime might be considered as an outgrowth of old and deep-rooted evils in the lands from which they same, thoaeh unknown here. '"I was asked to sign a petition for clemency, said the speaker, "and to write Governor Offlsby, who Ss a personal friend of mine. Bat I declined, for I could not conscientiously go anything but let the law take its course. When a plague visits the country we employ quick-lime and other powerful agents to rid us of its presence. Now the time has come when we must stamp out this plague in the social order and prevent its farther growth, ihese men must be lifted to a higher order of life. To bis end the barriers between employes and employer must be broken down and the working llasses educated." TAtigs Denounced by Schwab. Joliet, 111., Nov. 13. Yesterday , Michael Fchwab said to Fire Marshal Kromer, of this city, with whom he is acquainted and who visited him at his arrival: who did it the prison shortly after "Liogg was the scalawag all. Spies would not have been executed if those bombs had not been found in Lingg's cell. Whv, that miserable rat asked for a pencil and paper to write some deviltry on only five minutes before he died. It is a mystery to me how he managed to conceal that fulminating cap about him with which he took bi life." - Being a3ked in German, the language in which the interview was held, what he thought tingg intended to do with the bombs. Schwab replied: I think he was goinjr to ex Diode them among the jail officials and others who would be present at the execution, and murder as many as he conld, regardless of the consequences to himself. The actions of this wretch were what prevented a commutation for poor Spies. I do not think the police or jail officials had anything to do with the bombs found in Lingg's eell,and do not know how he got possession of them." A Small Riot at St. XjOuIs. St. Loc'rs, Nov. 13. There is little sympathy for Anarchists in St. Louis, yet there are some followers of the red flag here, and Mrs. Mary Duff displayed her feelings by draping the stars and stripes and displaying pictures of the hanged men in the windows of her rooms, corner of Fifteenth and Pine streets. The sight attracted a' crowd about 9 o'clock this morning: a murmur of displeasure was quickly followed by a shower of missiles and down came the emblems of grief. Mary Duff, in a fury, threw open the door and found vent for her rage in low expletives. Her harangue was answered by a shower of clubs which demolished the windows and bruised hag, thebut she pluckily returned the fire, and with a hatchet in her hand, defied the mob as sue hurled her last weapon at their heads. She then turned on her he'll in orderly retreat, while the police quelled the disturbance. A picture of General John A. Logan occupied a conspicuous place among the decorations, and received due care and reverence from the mob. No one was injured beyond a few bruises. Rev. Pentecost Defends Anarchy. Newark, N. J., Nov. 14. Rev. Hugh O. Penteeost, defeated candidate for Mayor on the Labor ticket, preached a sermon to-night before a dense crowd, in Belleville-avenue Congregational Church, on "Fcur More Men Murdered in Chicago What does it signify?" He claims thatFriday's hanging was unjust, unchristian and brutalizing. The men were right, as the real Anarchists were the officials, the monopolies and capitalists. He asserted that unless some change was made in society whereby the poorer classes will be relieved of oppression there will be revolution, and when the next labor troubles occur in Chicago there will be more Anarchists to hang. Memorial Meeting; at Providence. Providence, IL I., Nov. 13. An Anarchist memorial meeting was held in the rooms of the Central Labor Union this afternoon, under the auspices of the nnion. The place was crowded, and the proceedings were enthusiastic, but quiet. Except for the sentiments of the first speech there was little of tb spirit of anarchism. either in the speeches or in the responses of the assemblage of workingmen. Harry C Vrooman, a brother of Vrooman, the '"boy orator' of Kansas City, and editor of the labor organ, The People, led off with a strictly Anarchist speech. The other speakers were more temperate. The Star-Spangled Banner. Chicago, Hail. Thursday night, about 9 o'clock, four men stood en'a corner, near Twenty-fourth street, and not far from one of the fashionable avenues which crossed it. There was not a cloud overhead, and the air was more like that which one feels and inhales ia a Southern climate than we - gendratly have in this section at this season of the year. A f ong was started and sent skyward: "And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall ware O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave." ; The music circled and echoed and went and eame until all, the windows in the vicinago went np. The voices died away, and the four men disappeared. Friday morning, at 9 o'clock, four men appeared at the same corner, and without any apparent prearrangemnt they sang a song: "And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the frea and the home of the brave." At that hour, of course, people assembled, and as soon as the signers discovered this they separated and went away in different directions. tAiriosity that was pardonable prompted me to follow one of them, and when he had lost himself from the crowd 1 asked him if I might inquire the meaning of the group and the singing. He was a bright-faced young fellow and intelligent. "There are a few of us," he said, "who think it is time to sing the old song. We are simply a little band of young men who have been taught that there is but one country. We mean that there shall be but one nag, and never again do we propose that any other flag than the one we've been singing about shall be carried through the streets of Chicago. We have no resentments. We rejoice over nothing that has just happened; but The star-spangled banner banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave." That's alL" Moa Van Zantlt's Cheerful Scheme. "Club Man," in Chicago Mail. ' A Chicago clergyman imparts to me, in a burst of confidence, that he was approached on Thursday by two unknown men, who asked him if he would unite Miss Van Zandt and August Spies in holy wedlock if they could arrange to have the two brought together. One of them toid him that an arrangement had been made with Sheriff Matson by which Miss Van Zandt was to be allowed ao audience with Spies. This is true. And they wanted to have some clergyman at hand who would unite them legally in a flash. The speaker informed the minister that Spies wonld ask for him for spiritual consolation, as a blind, and that he the minister would have no trouble about getting in. The only question was as to whether the minister would carry out the programme.. lf declined, but before doing so he asked what the object was, and one of the men said if "she' could marry Spies legally it would give her possession of the body after death, and the lady wanted to cremate it and place the askes in an urn in her room. "I couldn't help admiring the woman," said the preacher. "If her devotion had only been given to a better cause. Of coarse, I refused. " Daty of German Workmen. Kew York Etaata-Ztttung. The workmen of this country, and especially the German, can no longer endure to be indentified with the abominable crimes of the gang whose comrades yesterday expiated their crimes on the scaffold. They must rather seek to lead the workmen's movement into channels that will

not bring it into conflict with the institutions of this country. If they do this a persecution of i foreign-born citizens will be rendered impossible. If they do not do this dark days await the immigrants, and those of. them who have become good Americans will, with heavy hearts, be compelled to acquiesce in measures that are in the highest degree opposed to the spirit of our political system.

Lieut. W. S. Hamilton, in New York Post. Looking through history, we find that, though in all other particulars the art of war has made wonderful strides, yet in the actual distances accomplished in marches on foot the. ancients were fully equal to modern soldiers. In fact, the most wonderful feat ever recorded in marching was accomplished by the ancients. In the second Pnnie war Hannibal lay waiting at Canusium for his brother Hasdrnbal to bring him reinforcements from Spain. Facing Hannibal was a Roman army under the Consul Claudius Nero, while opposite Hasdrnbal was another Roman army under the Consul Livius. Leaving the main body to hold and deceive Hannibal, Claudius, with a picked body of one thousand horse and six thousand foot, marched secretly and quickly to Livius, and, joining forces with him. they burled themselves on Hasdrnbal and defeated him. Claudius then at once marched back again before Banibal was aware of his brother's defeat. Now, . the distance between Canusium and Serra Galliea, the place of the battle, by the best authorities, is given at the least measurement as 225 miles. The march was made each way in six days, or at the rate of over thirty-seven miles a day. But this march is an exceptional one, and, if believed, must stand out like so many other of the wonders of the ancients.

He was only a child a boy of four or five when, one evening as he looked from his window, he saw a particular bright star in the heavens. He was a child whom death bad robbed of father, mother, brothers and sisters, and was all alone in the world. He was lonely for companionship for some one to love, and when he saw the star he whispered to himself: "It shines so brightly, and it is so near heaven, that I will call it my star and be friends with it." And so the friendship thus strangely brought about lasted for days and weeks and years forever. Each night when the son had gone down and the day had fallen asleep the boy looked for his star, and with his face turned to heaven he talked to it in whispers, as he would have talked to a companion. He did not know at first what a star was, nor why God placed it in His heavens, but one day when somebody told him he was made glad. He loved the star much better than before. It was nearer the spirits of his 'dead. Aye! perhaps it was the window through which they looked down upon the earth. The boy did not lose his love for the star as he grew older. Sickness came troubles and misfortunes were his lot, as they come to others, but his affection never waned. He told the star of his hopes and clans of his troubles and heartaches and his heart was al ways the lighter for the telling. Sometimes the night came down with weeping and wailing, jnst as sorrow comes to a man wnen he is old and bent and almost ready to die. s Then he looked in vain for star. It was hidden in the wilderness of the night, and he tremblingly whispered: '-Perhaps I shall never see it again! Suppose it has cone from me forever!" But good men and women reassured him. . They toid him that God had set the star in the heavens when time was not, and it wonld remain there until time was no more. Once, when the child had grown to man's estate still loving, still trusting still praying softly to his. star, a man of wicked heart mocked him or his ; faith, and declared that there was no God. For a little time the man-child was crushed and disconsolate, but on that night the star shone so brightly and twinkled so merrily that he recovered all his faith and his trust, and he prayed. "Ob, sir, I shall never, never doubt you again! You may be hidden from me sometimes, but it is only to make you more precious in my sight when you return!" And he grew to man's estate loving his star. He grew to old - age trusting in and praying to the light which shone in the heavens when the world slept and the trusting birds slept with their heads nnder their wings. When we had become very, very old, he felt one day that death was drawine very near to him. However, be was not afraid. Those around him wept and lamented, but he said: "It is God's will. Only let me see my star once more and I shall be ready to go." And the day died away like a child going to sleep, so calmly and quietly that even the soft south wind held its breath for fear to rustle the leaves. The sun sunk slowly down in a great sea of purple and gold, and then the stars came out one by one faintly at first hesitating as if they feared to look down upon the wickedness of earth but by and by the old man's star blazed out like a great diamond, and he Held up his arms and entreatingly called: "Oh! star of my childhood of my boyhood of my manhood of my old age of my dying hour I am -ready! Take me. star!" My dead are with you heaven is illuminated with your glorious light!" And they said he died with his face to the star, and with a grand smile lighting up every

seam and wrinkle which old age had placed

there. And when somebody asked if he died believing in God, another voice solemnly answered: r "Was it not God's star, and was cot his faith and reverence immortal?" A PRISON SOYLOCK. How Confederate Speculator -Accamalated a Fortune In War Times. An officer who was a prisoner of war in Charleston in 1864 tells the following story: T never see a steamer approach the dock at Fortress Monroe that I do not recall an incident of the war. Six hundred of us were sent from Macon to Charleston to be placed nnder the fire of the Union batteries on Morris island, that were tnen sneuing Charleston. We were never in great personal danger, for shelling a city at a distance of four or five miles was not then very effective. Xsot one of them was injured during tneir stay, isut au or tnem got very hard up for money. Pretty soon ail were reduced to the pint of corn meal per day, an ounce of salt per week and a semi-occasional piece of bacon that formed our prison ration. "There then appeared among us a new prisoner. He was, he said, a Union officer from a New York regiment. He had a very little of the soldier about him. He rather reminded yon of a whisky drummer or a Chatham street-clothing dealer. But he had a charm. He had money to lend confederate money. The money would not buy mueb, but it wonld buy something. A dollar in gold could be sold for about $20 in this currency outside the prison. We did not have any gold, but be did not demand gold. He loaned his confederate money for Northern drafts at double the rate - of gold in the Charleston market. That is, he wonld give you $1,000 in confederate money for a draft of $100 on a father, brother, wife or son in any of the great Northern cities. He said he would take the risk of collecting the drafts, and plumed himself on his generosity. He soon had plenty of customers, and did a fine business. From some officers he took cotes indorsed by other officers. These he charged for at the rate of $500 in confederate money for a note of $100 four times the rate for gold in the Charleston market. "He was a shrewd fellow and picked his customers with as much eare as a curbstone broker. It was soon discovered that he had an nnlimited supply of confederate money, and it was. also soon discovered that he was a favored prisoner, for he seemed able to go and come on parole at will. He visited the hospital frequently, and there he found bis best customers. He took from each of the sufferers a letter to friends at home, describing the privations of the sick. From all the officers not in the hospital he took letters of transmittal with the drafts, setting forth that the bearer had done them a great service in cashing the drafts, and expressing the hope that they would be paid. "These operations occupied about six weeks. Altogether the man bad secured drafts to the amount of about $50,000 in gold for every draft stipulated that it was to be paid in gold. Gold was then at a big premium in the North, so the draft for $100 would be worth $150, or perhaps $200 in the North, if it was paid in gold. The speculator intended to make money both ways. If he could collect all he would have from $75,000 to $100,000 in greenbacks for his drafts. "One day it was known that there were to be two Union officers exchanged by the flag of truce in the harbor. One of the lucky fellows was the money-lender. The other was a cavalry officer who had been a prisoner for many months. The latter had long watched the performances of the money-lender and had resisted all inducements to borrow from him. The two went out of the harbor together, and were received on board of the Cosmopolitan by General Stewart Lv Woodford, the adjutantgeneral of the Department of the South. They were transferred at Hilton Head to the steamer Arago, a government transport bound for New York. The Arago was ordered to stop at Fortress Monroe to let the exchanged prisoners and dispatches from General Gilmore go thence to Washington. The money-lender and the cavalry officer bad occupied the same stateroom on their northern voyage. During the voyage the money-lender became quite chatty and the cavalry officer became convinced that the former had never been an officer in the Union army, but that he was. simply put into the prison at Charleston to 'work the prisoners for the profit of the Shyiocks of that city. "As the Arago steamed up the bay toward the dock at Fortress Monroe, the money-lender pulled from under his mattress a small satchel. This was his oniy baggage. The cavalry officer had only the clothes on his back, and those he had borrowed from General Woodford. The two went on deck. The money-lender pushed his way eagerly to the forward deck and stood by the capstan. Presently he placed his precious bag upon the top of the capstan, holding on to it. however, with a tight grip. Near him stood the cavalry officer, amid the crowd of passengers who were watching the shores and participating in the excitement of a landing after a three-days' sea voyage. Some incident of the occasion produced a sudden rush to the vessel's side. In that instant the money-lender let go his grip on the satchel. Quick as thonght it was seized by another hand and dropped into the waters of Chesapeake bay. "No one saw it done, for it was dropped over the side of the ship when none were looking. The cavaly officer was camly leaning over the starboard rail contemplating the beautiful expanse of Hampton roads, apparently caring nothing for the stir and clamor of the landing. The money-lender exclaimed at his loss, offered a reward for the return of the satchel and its contents, but no one could offer him any comfort. He went down to the dock a very sad man. and no one seemed to so deeply sympathize with him aa his comrade of the' Second United States cavalry. "It is needless to say that cone of the drafts ever turned up to plague the Union prisoners after their retnrn, although some of them received letters from the money-lender in after years asking a. settlement of acconnts. Some doubtless paid, but the major portion concluded that such losses as that of the Shylock ought to be counted among the fortunes of war." NAPOLEON'S SECOND WIFE. How the Second ISride of the Great Con queror Regarded Her Husband. J. H. Harper, in the Cosmopolitan. When the divorce between Napoleon and Josephine bad been announced, reports were put in circulation that Marie Louise was to be the new Empress of France. Referring to these rumors, she writes nnder date of Jan. 10, 1S10: I don't believe a word of what they say. Napoleon wonld not risk a refusal, and there is . too much harm that he can yet do us. And papa is too good to wish to force me in so grave a matter. I let them talk, but pity the poor princess tbat he will chose. However, I'm very sure .that I am not the victim predestined by politics." And a few days later: "Since Nopolepn's divorced I expect to find the name of the woman he has chosen in every number of the Frankfort Journal. I confess that this delay make me anxious in spite of myself. I have, however, placed my fate in the hands of Providence, which alone knows what will conduce to our happiness, bnt if ill lock will have it, I am ready to sacrifice my happiness for the good of the state. One only finds true happiness in duty done, even at the price of one's peace of mind.' Again, on Jan. 26, she write s as follows: 'T know tbat they already have me married, in Vienna, to the great Napolean, but I hope this rumor is unfounded. However, I am none the less thankful for your kind wishes; if. in spite of all. thething comes to pass. I shall be the only one not to rejoice at it." In the letter beariog the above date, addressed to her friend, Mile, de Poutet, she adds that she amuses herself by composing waltzes, a singular mode of preparing for an heroic act! An hiatus of three months now occurs in the correspondence. In the meantime Marie Louise, having been married to the modern Antichrist, and finding him not so detestable aa he was painted, has become reconciled to her lot. The next letter is dated "Compiegne, 24 April, 1810. fll wish, my dear Victoria," she again writes to Mile, de Poutet, who bad herself .just been married, "that you may be as happy as I am, and that you may rind in life enjoyment equal to mine." She also praised Napoleon's easy disposition, his willingness to oblige, and his graciousness, and declared that her happiest moments were those that she passed alone with him. After the birth of her son,, the King of Rome, she prays heaven tbat the child may, like its father, make all those happy tbat shall be brought in contact with and know him. She has but one cause of uchappiness her husband's absence. "I can only be happy near him! May God ever preserve you from such a separation; it is too much for a loving heart, and should it continue longer I feel that I shall succumb." In bidding him good-bye she was convulsed by "a more violent emotion than she had ever experienced in leaving her family. If a day passed without receiving letters she was at once thrown into the deepest despair, and when one came it only comforted her for a few j hours." The fears of the young wife, had been realized. The allies had entered Paris. Napoleon had signed his abdication at Fountainbleau. and she herself had been escorted to Blois en route to Orleans. But even under j these calamities she was not altogether cast down. M. d'Hanssonville, in his amusing . "Souvenirs de Jennesse," informs i us fthat his father accompanied the Empress in her retreat to Blois, and was as much edified bv her conduct

An incident, related to him by the Comte de Sainte Auiaire, seems to prove, however, that even at this supreme moment she did not quite rise to the level of the situation. M. de Saint Auiaire, says the historian, was commissioned to inform her both of the Emperor's attempt at suicide by taking poison and his abdication. He called early in the morning, and found the Empress, who had not had time to put on her shoes, sitting on the edge of the bed. Embarrassed by the bad news he had to communicate, he entered the room wi'.h downeast eyes. "Oh, you are looking at mv feet," she said at once. "I was always told that they were pretty." m AN AMERICAS! PRIMA DONNA. The Beautiful Clothes and the Fine Voice That She Takes to Russia. Lucy II. Hooper's Paris LetterMiss Ella Russell, the American prima donna, lett Paris yesterday for Warsaw, whither she goes to commence a prolonged professional tour through Russia. She will sing at Warsaw, Moscow, Cracrow and St. Petersburg, her repertoire comprising Linda. Lucia, Gilda in "Rigoletto;" "La Traviata;" Elsa in ,;Lohengrin," and probably Desdemoca in "Otello." Miss Russell is an immense favorite in Russia. She has appeared in Warsaw for six consecutive seasons, always singing to crowded houses and being received with immense enthusiasm. She takes with her for this engagement some of the handsomest toilets tbat have as yet ever been seen upon the lyric stage in Europe, In "La Traviata," for instance, sne will wear in the first act a superb ball-dress, made by Worth, and composed of pink satin, with skir-f ront of the same material, embroidered by .hand, with silver, in a device of laurel branches and leaves, and having side-panels of pink orepe, embroidered and spanzled with silver. In the second act her dress will be composed of a corsage of ruby velvet, with a short skirt in white surah and white lace. The third toilet, which Worth has just completed, is in white brocade and satin, with side panels embroidered with looking-glass beads and bung with crystal pompilles, the skirt front being veiled with draperies of white lace, dotted with silver beads. Long garlands of white camelilas.faintly flushed in the center with palest pink, are set down either side of the skirt, and branches of the same flowers pass over the shoulders. The last dress is a princess cut morning dress in cream-white cashmere, falling back from a shirt vest in white surah, and a skirt front in full widths of white lace, and having a girdle in white silk and gold thread. For the courtdress in "Linda di Chamounix" Miss Russell has ordered a toilet in gold-yellow moire antique, made with a long train, which is bordered at one side with a garland in massed yellow acacia blossoms, extending from the waist to the end of the train. The skirt front is covered with scarf drapenaew of yellow tnlle, edged with e fringe of acacia blossoms, the waist being trimmed to correspond. The brilliant charms of Miss Russell, who is the most beautiful of all the fair American girls who have as yet appeared on the lyrio stage, will give full effect to the eleeance of her attire. I have never before seen such perfection of coloring as that which is the most marked detail of her beauty. A complexion of cream and roses, large, transparent eyes of forget-me-not azure, and wavy golden hair, all untouched and unaided by art, make an ensemble as delicate and yet as brilliant as the petals of a newlyopened rose. Add to this a figure of nobly-developed proportions, the full-rounded shoulders sloping to a lithe, slender waist, and one can imagine even from this inadequate description how very charming this fair Western girl really is. Her voice is as lovely as her face, the pure, clear notes being of exceptional volume and sweetness. And she is so good a girl, so pleased always with the success of her countrywomen among her fellowsingers, so free from professional jealousy and withal as pure as the dewdrops at the heart of the summer rose to which I have just compared her. She will not return to Paris before next spring, as her engagements in Russia extend over a period of several months. Emerson's Views of Mankind. Mr. Cabot's Memoirs. Emerson, Mr. James says, "Had noprosaie side relating him to ordinary people." Rather, I should say, his nature and circumstances had predisposed him to ignore the crosaic side, the accidents of the individual, in himself and others, and to look at each person as a type, an illustration of a particular side of humanity. Every kind and manner of man interested him, and the more the greater the difference from himself. Every man, be took for granted, had his own ideal, his vision of perfection; and he was eager to know what it was tbat made the particular object of pursuit interesting, what seemed best worth while in the other's scheme of life. But further than this he did not readily go. "1 like man," he writes in his journal at this time, "but cot men. The genius of humanity is very easily and accurately to be made out by the poet mind: but it is not in Miss Nancy or Adorniram in any sufficiency. I like man, bnt not men. Instincts, tendencies they do no wrong; they are beautiful and may be confided in and obeyed. Though they slay ns, let us trust them. But why should eegs and tadpoles talk? All is mere sketch, symptomatic, possible and probable for ns; we dwellers in tents, we outlines in chalk, we jokes and buffooneries, why should we be talking? -Let us have the grace to be abstemious." Dairymen must at some time realize the fact that the curry-comb and brush are as necessary, in tha cow stable as they are in the horse stable. The careful hostler never allows bis horse to miss a day without a good brushing yet cows, which need brushing more than horses, are never cleaned from one end of the year to the other. The consequence is that in some stables they become unhealthy, andda ring milking a proportion of dirt finds its way into the mils:. Those who brush their cows state that it pays to do so. as the flow of milk is thereby increased, the hi alth of the co ws being also promoted. "Do you know," remarked a prominent gentleman to ns a few days ago, "Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is really a good thing. My dauehter would have cie use it for a bad cougn and it did cure me." i Allow your Clothing, MfA Paint, or Woodwork, rubbing, twisting, wrecking way.
