C A secret meeting of the Steam Kailroad Men's Protective Union was held in this city to-day, with 350 delegates present from ail parts of the United States and Canada. Committees were appointed to draft resolutions regarding the questions of railroads employing inexperienced men and minors, shorter hours for employes And the adoption of safety appliances. It was resolved to support an antiPinkrrton bill. Tho employers liability bill provoked a heated discussion, and a- law was proposed for each State, the indemnity to be 510,000, it being believed that such legislation would do much toward forcing rail way companies to provide safety appliances. The federation question was thoroughly explained by the president, and it was decided to enter the federation. The old board of officers was re-elected, the executive board being made advisory and increased to seven members. The aggressive policy of the organization will remain the same. The legislative committee report proved a surprise, there being but few laws in behalf of railway employes. What have always been supposed to be laws, it was shown, were simply recommendations . from railway and warehouse commissioners. The meeting theu adjourned. Master Mechanic Twombly Arrested.

BOULANGER'S FINAL DEFEAT
French Kcpublicans Overwhelmingly Successful in the Eeballotings. Followers of the Exiled General Recognize the Failure of His Party and Cease to Use Ilia Name as a Stepping-Stone to Power. His Financial Backers Also See Their folly and Close Their Pocket-Books. Destructive Hurricane in Icaly, Accompanied by Urge Loss of Life Serria's Ex-Queen Determined to Have ner Rights. DESERTED BY HIS FRIENDS. Boulanger's Followers Refuse to Furnish Him Money Again Badly Ileaten at the Polls. Paris, Oct C Re-ballots were again taken, to-day, in the districts in which the recent elections for members of the Chamber of Deputies were without definite result. Tho weather was fine, and a host of electors presented themselves at the polls. The voting in Paris proceeded in perfect quietness, there being ro incident worthy of mention. The followers of General Boulanger are deserting. M. Laguerre and other former Boulangists have ceased to mention the General's name, styling themselves only Revisionists. The truth is, the bubble has burst at last, and Boulanger himself is beginning to realize this fact in a most unpleasant manner. The Compte do Paris and the Duchess d'Uses have intimated that they can no longer afford to keep in funds the man who boasted he could sweep France at the first general election, and succeeded in winning only a paltry score or so of scats. The golden stream, to which place-seeking politicians, f awningdames, and selfish speculators contributed liberally as long as Boulanger seemed tho coming man, has dwindled down to a tiny brooklet, and bids fair to dry up entirely. Yet Boulanger is as thirsty as ever for gold; for he knows he cannot keep up the position of pretender without having it in liberal measure. Ho is now an ontlaw, and disqualified from receiving military pay or pension. Unless he has quietly invested some of the millions received within the last year or two for propagandist purposes, or unless he has tho good fortune, denied to most beaten men, of retaining a few real friends with bank accounts as good as their hearts, he must soon be within a measurable distance of actual want. It has been asserted in London that Rochefort and Boulanger have become reconciled. Tho only ground for the statement is that Rochefort id reported to havo asserted that he would reject with scorn anv government offer of pardon, and that if Minister Constans should insult him by such a proposal he would drag the man , Constans through the mud. But it is practically certain that Rochefort would gladly avail himself of amnesty, and it is beyond a doubt true that he will soon part company with Boulanger. The latter has sent an agent to Jersey to secure if possible, a cheap and secluded house for his chief. Boulanger wants to get away from London. It is too expensive for his straitened means, and he rightly dreads the effect of his reverses upon his social position when society returns to tho metropolis. In France pepplo are beginning to forget Boulanger, and the rank and tile of his party nre losing heart in sympathy with their leaders. Tho government already feel themselves strong enough to deal tirnily with Boul.uigerism, and nre acting vigorously against leaders and followers alike. Confusion reigns in the conservative party in general, and tho Boulangist factiou in particular. In many of tho ISO constituencies in which second ballots were taken to-day the Boulangists, Imperialists and Monarchists were at loggerheads. They refused to $rive way to each other, even when their disunion meant the certain success of the common foe. To crown all. Figaro, one of tho most influential of the Conservative newspapers, has sensibly admitted the significance of the recent plebiscite, and has given in its adhesion to the xnoderato republic. The Bonlangist leaders admittedly have no hope of attaining power unless the Republicans should commit political suicide. Boulanger himself hugs tho delnsiou that thenew Chamber, bcinglargelycomposed of untried men. will quicklj prove unmanagable. and that his chance will come in the confusion which will ensue. The prospect is a very remote one. and the Republicans are not at all alarmed, considering that Boulanger has had better chances, and ? roved himself incapable of utilizing them, t is estimated that two-thirds of tho 180 constituencies1 which balloted to-day have gone Republican. The conservatives calculated npon the return of two of their candidates in Paris. All the members of tho uatinnal committee will confer with General lionlanger In London on Tuesday next, prior to his departure for the Isle of Jersey. J Boulanger is no longer a factor in any French political problem. Those who havo heretofore been his warmest political frieudtk are. to-day, ready to accept an explanation of tho General's disastrous overthrow at the polls, which is anything but creditable to their former chief. Utterly unable to compreheud that the French people should have deliberately repudiated themselves andtheirrevolutionary schemes, they now insist that their defeat is due entirely to the failure of General Boulanger to use the largo sums of money which had been given him to aid in carrying the elections for tho purposes for which they were intended. It is openly charged that the brave General has been quietly stowing away the millions of francs which his wealthy dupes poured into his coffers, while ho let the elections take care of themselves. Boulanger takes pains to create the impression that ho is impoverished, but his disgusted allies mako no secret of their belief that he has carefully nursed his bank account at tho expense of his own and their political prospects. Midnight. A few arrests have been made, principally of noisy youths. The streets are still crowded; otherwise the city is calm. The results in the provinces arrive slowly. Returns from 153 districts show the election of 108 Republicans and forty-five anti-Republicans. It is reported that a split has occurred between Boulanger and Count Dillon because of the former's assertion that the bargain with the Conservatives had caused a loss of seats to the Boulangists. The Boulangists have obtained nearly half of the representation of Paris, and many of the anti-Republicans elected aro pledged to the revision policy. M. Jacques, Opportunist, who was defeated by Boulanger in January, beat the Bonlangist's candidate to-day by a small majority. M. Lockroy polled 7,011 votes over his Bonlangist opponent, who polled 5.80. L Cbautenips, Radical, president of the Paris Municipal Council, received 10,253 over M. Jacquet, Boulangist, the latter polling 5.913. Return i received up to 4 a. m. (Monday), from 170 districts in which reballots were taken, show the election of 122 Republicans and forty-eight anti-Republicans. FATAL HURRICANE.

GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Ex-Queen Natalie, of Servla, Determined to Have Her Rich! A Ilandsome Woman. London, Oct. C Belgrade is again attracting tho eyes of the political world.
Queen Natalie is determined to have what she considers her rights, while the Regents,

In the meantime, judging from one special correspondent's message, misfortune does not seem wholly to disagree with Queen Natalie. He says the Queen woro a tight-fitting dress of shepherd's plaid, a narrow, dark ribbon tied on one side round her neck, and her only jewels were diamond bangles on her wrists. Her splendid black hair fell unrestrained over her neck and shoulders, making a most effective frame for the handsome faco. Her year of trials has added softness to her beauty, and her dark eyes shine with a veiled luster. The Shah's Presents to English Friends. London, Oct. C Nasir-ed-Din, having settled down again in Persia, has at last sent the presents and decorations he promised to the distinguished people who entertained him during bis tour in England.

The Duke of Portland, in whose stables the Shah took special interest, is remembered with a gold snuff-box set in diamonds, and the Lord Mayor of London gets the Order of tho Second Class of tho Lion and the Sun. A score or more of Englishmen whom the Shah met received such presents as diamond rings, portraits and fcmuft-boxes. and third, fourth and fifth Orders of the Lion and the Sun.

Mr. Parnell has written to Mr. Stxton, asking him to act as his representative at the convention oiithe opening of the New Tenants Def enseLeague in Tipperary, and to lay his views before the convention. He says that his health will not permit him to cross tho channel. He advises that the government bo limited to defensive action. Special regard, he says, must be paid to these points: First, the duty of protecting tenants against tho landlord conspiracy, thus insuring the tenants tho benefits which Parliament intended; secoud, the assertion of the rights of freedom of speech and of public meeting; third, a vindication of the rights of tenants to tho same facilities for combining and organizing that have been secured to English workmen by trades-union enactments. A Masterpiece of Lace-Work. London, Oct. C Two hundred Silesian lace-workers havo been uninterruptedly occupied for four months in the creation of the veil that is to be worn by the Princess Sophia, of Prussia, at her marriage with the Crown Prince of Greece.

London's Lord Mayorelect, Mr. Isaacs, is brought face to face with what seems an insurmountable difficulty. Nov. 9 is the date for tho Lord Mayor's show, and this year it falls on Saturday. Isaacs, who is a devout Jew, caunot lawfully either ride or walk in the procession, and as tho Lord Mayor's snow without a lord mayor would be something of on innovation, the outcome is watched with considerable interest. A compromise of some sort in which religion and custom will each be called upou to yield something is probable. Promises Work for the Dlploinates. London, Oct. 5. Considerable exilement is caused in Vienna by the report that the Prince of Montonegro has ceded a portion of the Bay of Antivari to Russia, and that the Czar has already given orders for the establishment of a naval depot there and tho building of a fort.

Clay roads can only be made into satisfactory ways by means of effective drainage, so contrived that the least possible water will remain in the material which feels the effect of the tread of tho draught animal or the down-wearing thrust of the wheel. Deep side ditches are absolutely necessary for such roads, and the narrower the roadway tho moro effecttive will be the drainage work. Itisa great mistake in such roads to have any more width than is imperatively necessary for the uses of tho structure. If the ditches extend to a depth which would maintain the crown of the road two feet above the water-level, and the roadway is of the least possible width, the problem of protection against mud is most easily solved. To effect any satisfactory solution of the difficulties which beset such roads it is necessary, however, either to construct an artificialsurface of timber or of stone, which is always a matter of great cost, or to mingle somo binding materials with tho clay. If gravelly materials, or, what is better, shingly waste such as is often produced by frost action on slaty stones, can be commingled in tho proportion of one-half with tho clay, a firm road-bed can commonlv be secured, provided tho road is well ditched. This commingled gravel or other solid substance must extend at least for a foot below the surface in order to withstand any heavy carriages. In many cases an eauallr trood result can be accomplished by covering the surface with repeated coatings of any shrubby vegetable matter. In northern Minnesota I have seen the material kuown as "excelsior," i. e., strip-liko shavings, cut by machinery from blocks of wood, serve admirably to prevent the motion of the clay, aud i am of tho opinion that it would, in clay countries where stouo cannot readily be obtained, 'but where timber is plenty, bo an admirable device to have a machine for making excelsior to bo used as a road material. On the surface such woody matterrapidly decays, but when worked by tho wheels into tho clay it may last for several seasons. At no great cost the material might be saturated with creosote, and thus rendered much more resisting to decay. The finest branches of trees, the leaves of pines, even rushes, may servo the need, if they can bo cheaply applied. THE SOUTH IN NEW YORK. The Southern Girl and Her Ways Touring Cubans. New York Letter in Boston Transcript This is the Southerner's season in New York the Southerners from across Mason and Dixon's lino, and Jhe black-browed, soft-voiced men, women and children from Cuba. There is ono hotel here which rather has the call on the Cubans. The diningroom is full of handsome, swarthy voung men and pretty, matronly women; for the youth of a Cuban woman seems to last only about two years and a half. These women, evidently young, but with the air of maturity that no well-kept American woman dreams of until she is forty, are perhaps barely twenty-five, girls in years, but matrons in appearance. The children, though, are heaven-eyed and dressed in tlfe perfection of simplicity. The girls all wear long-skirted, short-waisted white frocks, and have finely finished faces, like artistic photographs, and all have the beautiful manners of the Latin races. Then there are tho other Southerners, who stop over in New York for a lark on their way from tho White Sulphur Springs, and Saratoga, and Newport, and who amputate their r's, but otherwise are the most amiable, openhearted creatures on earth. Tho families have black servauts with them venerable mammies, who 6poil the children to death, aud are lost in amazement at the glories of New York. The girls aro a study. Anything further removed from the average well-groomed, well-born and well-bred Northern girl would be hard to find yet they are charming in their own unconventional way. There is no doubt that fashion among New York girls is toward repression a following after the icy composure of English girls it is bad form to bo emotional. The Southern girls don't know anything about this. They sit round the hotel drawing-rooms and chatter in the most delightful and unconventional manner. They are not troubled with any fear of not doing the right thing, and consequently they aro always well-bred and self-possessed. They take out their gay summer gowns for a final wear of them, all around and instead of the severe tailor-made dress that tho New York girl wears religiously in the hotel drawing-rooms and corridors, her Southern sisters llutter about in Uully muslins and striking China silks. And how they do enjoy N.ew York, and drag pa and ma round to tho theaters, and the shops where readyinado things can be bought! Tho pas and mas of theso young things are by no means the disobedient parents of the New York girl they are perfectly willing to submit to the whims of their young ones, and are entirely amiable while they are being hauled and pulled about in the most affectionate and thoughtless manner. Theso Southern girls don't trouble Redfern and Moscovitz much Altaian's and Stern's aro good enough for them tho fact is, they like more trimmings on their frocks than tho arbiters of style will allow, and when they pay 8eventy-nve or a hundred dollars for a frock, they like one that can be seen at a distance. Bat it suits them their healthy pallor and slightness admits of inert? color in their get-up than their stouter and roster sisters atthoNorth. And men like theirclothes. Nino times out of ten a man call the most perfect sown in tho world a dull thing, unless it has plenty of color, nnd jangles and laco to it. Red is every man's favorite color, and they think tho gay frocks of tho Southern girls charming. New York's Great Toon-Bah." Baltimore American. The sheriff of New York has been indicted for felony.

About Covering Plants. The Independent. Cover roses on a slant, bending them down with a few sods placed under to prevent breaking. Then, cover with sod-grass, upside down. Leave the tips always protruaing. The sod will serve for manure the next spring. Cover hollyhocks with two sods set up roof fashion and not crowded down too tight Cover carnations with a forkful of loose manure. Cover phloxes with leaves and litter. Cover ehrubs, such as rhododendrons, magnolia glancus. mahernias, tender e'eutzias. with leaves, dry and loose, and set over a sugar-barrel, or set up branches of evergreens about them. It is well to cover lily-beds with a light dressing of manure very light All halftender shrubs aro hardier as they grow older, such as Rose of Sharon or Althca. While small, therefore, cover with barrels and leaves, or bend over and cover with, sods. Covering with sod is often done carelessly, the whole plant being carefully covered except at the base where it is bent. Here it needs special care, and is liable to get least. Don't store many, as it costs more than it does to replace in the spring. But gladioluses, dig as soon as spoiled hy the frostdry thoroughly, and store where they cannot freeze or get moldy. Dig dahlias by running down the spade deep and prying; dry well and nut in an open dry box, and set them where tuey will not dry up, and yet will not get moldy and rot. A cool, dry cellar is tho best for bulbs and tubers, but most cellars are too damp or frosty. Geraniums will not keep through when it is too damp. They will rot to a certainty. Better cut them back thoroughly, cut back roots, and put in five inch pots, and set away in a . dry place, and don't water until they begin to grow; if yon do they will rot Recipes. Pickled Melon. In pickling a young musk or nutmeg melon, cut a hole in tho side through which to extract the seeds,' saving the piece that is cut out. Then lay the melon in strong brine, which should entirely cover it There let it remain for three days; take it out rinse it, and let it lie in clear, cold water overnight Then, after draining, fill it with chopped cabbage, seasoned with mustard seed, horseradish, a little ginger, somo 6ugar, celery seed, and, if possible, some small cucum-' hers. Sew in theiece that was cut out and put the melon, in a stone jar.and pouf hot vinegar over it About three monthl will be taken for the pickling, the tims de pending on the sizo of the melon, but whetf it is done a delicious relish will be tho tosuit Cream Puffs. Mix totrether and bring to a slow boil one cup of butter and two cupit of warm water; add at onco one quart of prepared Hour, without taking the saucepan from the fire, stir continually, and let it boil ono minute. Turn out on a dish and allow the paste to get perfectly cold. Beat the yelks of seven eggs nmooth and thick, add to the paste, then add tho whiten, also well beaten. Line a larpre pan with buttered paper, and drop the mixtnro on in large spoonsful, not allowing the cakes to touch. Put in a brisk oven, where they should get light and well done in about ten minutes: when nearly cold pass a knife, 'around three hides, pull them open and fill. Cream: Put three tablespoonfulsof cornstarch in a cup of milk; add it to a pint of milk heating on the fire as soon as the latter boils; after cooking five minutes stir in a full cup of 6Ugar. and after two minutes more add the stiffened whites of three eggs and a teaspoonful of hotter; let it remain a moment, then take off and beat well. As it cools put in one teaspoonful of vanilla, and let the cream bo cold before it is put inside the puds. i A Modern Version. Lawrence American.

Tho real estate boom of southern California is smashed almost beyond recognition. As a sample of the wreck it is mentioned that property near Los Angeles, which sold for over 400,000 two years ago, is now assessed at $40,000, on which a reduction of 30 per cent is asked. The land is thero and destined to stay there, but there is no market for it. These are ad and suggestive figures. Success In 1892. Milwaukee Sentinel.
