TREASONABLE CONDUCT. Britons Shocked at Action of Telegrapher! In Groaning at the Oueen and Mr. Raikes. Eplcial to the Indianapolis Journal. London, July 3. The conduct of the staff of telegraph clerks in the general office in London, in answering the call for cheers for the Queen anil Postmaster-general llaikes "with eroans, on the occasion of the postal jubilee at South Kensington, yesterday, h&s greatly enraged Mr. Kaikes, and will doubtless hasten a settlement oi the differences now existing between the telegraphers and the pen to nice department, through a striko or tho resignation of Mr. Kaikes. The matter is the topic of wide discussion, and the general opinion is that if tho Queen has been publicly insulted, Mr. Raikes is responsible for it It appears that, as the finale of the jubilee, it was arranged, by connection of the wires, that there should be a simultaneous cheer for the Queen in every telegraph station throughout the kingdom. Two thousand people were waiting in the general (office to hear the manifestations of loyalty to their sovereign, which the telegraphers were expected to vent when the signal should be given. The signal was Hashed over tho wire, and the assembled Ilritons were horrified when there burst fortn from the throats of the general staff a hoarse groan, whose depths was not relieved by a single cheer. Scarcely had the groan ceased when another and deeper one followed, as an expression of the feeling entertained by the clerks toward Mr. Kaikes. To-day the .Postmaster-general ordered thatthe clerks sign an apolog3- for tbeir conduct, and the demand was promptly and unqualifiedly refused by the spokesmen of the clerks declaring that the men did not feel that they had done anything for which they should apologize, but on tho contrary would refeat their manifestation 60 far as Mr. I'aikes was concerned, in similar circumstances. AMERICAN RIFLEMEN. Warmly Greeted at RerHnParade Through an Historic Thoroughfare. Berlin, July 3.

At 1:25 the members of the Independent New York Shooting Corps arrived on the ground. When all the visiting riilemen had been formed luto ono body, City Councilor Schrciner formally welcomed them on behalf of the Municipal Council of Berlin. Consul Schonlang then addressed tho visitors, dwelling upon the friendship existing between Germany and the United States. In conclusion he called for cheers for the two countries. lie and Master Birxner next welcomed tho riilemen on behalf of tho festival committee, and when he had concluded his remarks the visitors arid their entertainers partook of luncheon. ' Alter the repast the Americans formed in line and marched by way of Unter den Linden to the Town Hall. The famous avenue was handsomely decorated in honor of the occasion, and thousands of spectators gave the visitors a hearty welcome. Upon arriving at the Town Uali the standardbearer of the party bore tho banner into the reception-room, where he was followed by the whole body of riilemen. Here Chief Burgomaster Forckenbeck was waiting to receive the visitors. In welcoming them" on behalf of tho town Herr Forckenbeck referred to the exertions made by the Americans to attend the rifle competition, and expressed a hope that tho festival would terminate happily. He dilated upon the ties that bind America and Germany. The two countries, he said, are united in their efforts to maintain peace, and he hoped that active intercourse botweon the two peoples would develop further for the promotion of civilization. He trusted that the Americans would carry awav friendly recollections of their visit. Hermann Weber replied at some length, thanking the municipal authorities for their reception, and dwelling upon the intimate relations of German-Americans with their mother country. He concluded by proposing cheers forBnrgomaster Forckenbeck. The llags carried by the Americans were deposited in tho Town Hall, where they will remain during the festival. 0 GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Mr. Gladstone's Alleged New Irish Scheme and How Tarnell Regards It. London, July 3. The declaration made by Mr. Parnell at the banquet given in his honor on Saturday evening taat he would on no acconnt accept a government portfolio caused considerable speculation as to its significance. It is now believed that it was Mr. ParnelPs answer to a plan which Mr. Gladstone is alleged to have formulated to secure the passage of an Irish local government .bill, instead of a home-rule bill, aud give the Irish otlices to Nationalists. While the administration of local affairo, with the comfortable salaries which such duties would command would doubtless be very acceptable to tho average Nationalist mcmber.it is a difficult to believe that nn3 . of the Irish members would accept such a solution of the Irish problem as it is to imagine that Mr. Gladstone is willing to drop his home-mlt scheme and compromise on a local government bilL Still it is asserted that the ex-Premier has suggested such a plan, and Mr. Parnell's declaration is generally accepted as his reply. Where the McKlnley 11111 Is Unpopular. London, July 3. All the indications point to a determined effort, led by Mr. Howard Vincent, in the British Parliament, to discriminate against United States exports in retaliation for the McKinlsv tariff bill. Tho government, however, has so much important business on its list that it is unlikely thatsnch a measure, involving a radical departure from the free-trade principles of half a century, would receive serious consideration during the present sesfio: In France, however, the adoption of retaliatory measures is certain as soon as the McKinlcy bill becomes a law. lie Stole a Duke's Jewels. London, July 3.

SINGULAR AND SULDEN FLOOD.

Clond-Bnrst Stops Traffic on a Railway and Imperils a Train Russell Ilarrison on Board. - Van Horn, Tex., Jnly 3. A remarkable cloud-burst on the mountains stopped traffic temporarily on the Texas Pacific railroad to-day. . The noon tram out of El Paso, eastward bound, had three coaches, a sleeper and the special palace car Mayllower, containing the Leslie newspaper party, including Russell Harrison. It was moving along about 8 o'clock to-night at a high rate of speed, when, at this point, it suddenly ran into an euormons flood of water, spreading over eight miles aloug the valley, and inundating the entire town. The train was instantly slowed, but the llood from the mountain increased so rapidly that the ties wero washed out from under the track, and the train stopped to await developments. Fifteen minutes before the train approached Van Horn tho track was perfectly dry. The water came downun a llood. It had been raining hard on the mountains all day, and to-night it is raining here. Before this there had been no rain at Van Horn for many months, though there had been occabional smaller cloud-bursts. The Leslie party remains on the car, as the track is cut oft from the main land by tho water, the roaring of which can be heard for miles. Woman Forger Arrested.

The woman confessed that she was the person wanted, and handed over 83,500 to the Inspector. She resides with her parents, on Oak street, Providence. WHERE WOMEN VOTE. The Frogrcss of Civilization Not in tho Least Retarded in Wyoming. Letter In Philadelphia Times. So this is Cheyenne, about which wo have heard so much. The wonderful place where women vote! Well, what is it Jike, anyhow? Do the women take tho hatchets after their husbands? Do they leave babies to etarvo or cry thcinsevcs to death! Do the houies go to destruction, and the women look coarso and masculine? All those dreadful things and worse, it is prophesied, would come to pass if over women voted. Well, here in Wyoming tho women have voted so long that nobody thinks anything about It. From all accounts women go to the polls just as simply and naturally as they go to the postolhce or the railroad station. And from present observation they look very much like other women. They dress as well as the women in the Eastern cities, and far better, as a rule, than they do in Chicago. There seems to be a great many homes here that is, there are cottages, and villas, and Queen Anne houses, just as pretty, and neat, and elegant as many in the suburbs of Philadelphia. The "red craze" in walls and roofs has broken out here about as strongly as it has auywhere. And the grounds around them well, aot even in Germantown or Bryn Mawr, noted for their magnificent lawns can finer grass and sod be seen. The trees look little, but they are evidently destined to grow, and the people are trying all sorts of experiments with apple blossoms, Missouri currants, lilac bushes and wild roses. What does it all mean? It means, simply, that people are taking a laudable pride in their homes, quite as much as they would any where else, even if women do vote. What has become of the old dogma, "Woman's sphere is home," as opposed to woman suffrage? Women find this "sphere" here as quickly as they do in other places, and vote. too. , There is.no better argument than truth, no better object lesson than facts. Go into these homes and yon find there the latest fad in "art decoration." just as you might in Bostou. There is the same bewildering variety of painted plaques. embroidered .screons. airy draperies and deep-toned rugs as may be sen in any out . of a thousand homes east of the Allegh enies. The same upright piano, the same dainty etching, the same bound volumeall here. The "chromo era" in the "wild West" has disappeared as completely as the "Wild West" itself. The womenhere arethe "artistic home-makers," just as truly as thev are anywhere. Yes, and they are "society . women" ana "literary women.'7 They have their teas and their clubs, just as truly as tho best women do in Now York, and the stylo of their gowns is as much heralded in the "society column" as if they lived in a town whoso name was not Cheyenne. There are pretty babies in Cheyenne, and these arc pushed about in their litilo carriages, and wear their lace caps and embroidered cloaks-, just like other babies. The bigger children are so much liko other children that it would be impossible to say where they were born. The school-house is surrounded by a lovely lawn and a line grove of young trees, which, alas! cannot be said of schoolhouses everywhere. And the church seems to get along just as well, now that women vote, as it did before. There are just as good congregations on Snnday as thero were in the old days when ministers thought it a Christian duty to teach the subjection and inferiority of women. Probably the women here work as hard to support the churches by their bazaars and suppers as they do in every other community. It is very certain that where women vote nothing very dreadful has happened in consequence. Perhaps the next objection that we shall hear to woman suffrage will be something like this: "There is'no use in giving the ballot to women, because it doesn't make any difierence. Where women vote the place is like other places, and tho women get along like other women." A YANKEE IX ANDERSOXVILLE. A Union Soldier Recollection of That Horrible Prison Pen of Rebeldom. Dr. T. H. Mann, in July Century. It was near noon of the 20th of May, ISO, that our train came to a stop, in a clearing of the pine forest. We had been all expectation for an hour or more, straining eager eyes to catch some glimpse of our stoppingplace. It was here before us. Looking from our position upon the railroad towards the southeast, at tho extreme 'end of tho clearing, some three or four hundred yards away, a cloud of smoke was curling upward from a rectangular, substantial-looking pen. Upon inquiry wo were told, 'That's where yon Yanks will put up!" "We had little time for thought before a round-shouldered, blustering little man upon a whito horse rode the length of the train, and with many a curse and oath ordered us all out. During our exit from the close, cramped quarters we had occupied so long a fresh guard came, in the wildest confusion and unmilitary order, from tho direction of tho smoke, and after much blustering and cursing wo were formed into two lines, giving room for us to pass between four deep. After some more swearing the ollicer on tho white horse placed himself at tho head of the column and ordered us to march. This was Wirz, our prison-keeper, and unhappily our first introduction to him was not our last. Upon reaching the inclosuro we halted while a part of our number were formed into a detachment, and tho remainder were ordered to be placed upon the rolls of the older detachments already in the pen. 'I have hesitated thus far to pronounce the word Andersonville. We know nothing or had heard nothing of the place: so we had not a moment's notice of the life we were about to enter upon. These many years after, tho word Andersonville' excites the same curiosity that it did before wo entered upon the months of sutlering that cannot be told. This, then, was Andersonville; or. as it was called by tho guard, Camp Sumter We entered it by a swinging door or gate, largo, heavily ironed and guarded. "As we passed within, the doors wero closed behind and heavily barred closed upon inn for five long mouths, and upon one-half our number for life. Our hearts sickened as we first looked upon the misery before our eyes. The attempt to picture our meutal depression as wo took in, with one quick, swift glance, the condition of those who had entered before us would be futile. "We joined insido the inclosure thirteen thousand of our comrades-in-arms, but they were not to be recognized. They Kecmed a dillerent race of the human family, and vastly more squalid than 1 ever had seen or heard of emaciated forms.

half human and half spectral, black with filth and smoke, and swarming with vermin. As we were driven like sheep into the stockade they crowded about us, making inquiries faster than they could be answered." A STORY OF JOSEPH JEFFERSON.

The Actor Indulges In a Private Rehearsal and Discover, m Large Audience. July Century. "My approaching appearance was the most important dramatic event of my lite. 1 had been five years from America, and was on my way home, and 1 felt satisfied that if this new version of 'Rip Van Winkle' succeeded in Loudon my way was quite clear when I returned to the Lnited States. : "On Sunday evening, being alone in niy lodgings, 1 got out. for my own admiration, my new wig and beard, the prido of my heart, and which I was to nse in the last act. I could not resist trying them on for the twentieth time, I think; so I got in front of the glass and adjusted them to my perfect satisfaction. I. soon became enthused, and began acting and posing in front of the mirror. In about twenty minutes there came knock at the door. "Who's there said I. It's me. if vou please said the gentle but agitated voice of the chambermaid. 'May I como in? " 'Certainly not 1 replied; for I had no desire to be seen in my present make-up. " Is there anything wrong in the room, sir?' said she. 'Nothing at all. Go away 1 replied. 'Well, sir she continued, 'there's a policeman at the door, and he says as 'ow there's a crazy old man in your room, a-fiingin of his 'arnds about and a-going on hawful, and there's a crowd of people across the streetl-blockm up the way "I turned toward the window, andto my horror I found that I had forgotten to put down the curtain, and, as it seemed to me, the entire population of London was taking in my first night I had been unconsciously acting with the lights full up, to an astonished audience who had not paid for their admission. As I tore off my wig and beard a shout went up. Quickly pulling down tho curtain, I threw myself in a chair, overcome with mortification at the occurrence. In a few minutes the comical side of tho picture presented itself, and I must have laughed for an hour. I had been sutleriug from an attack of nervous dyspepsia, consequent upon the exeitcnicut of the past week, and I firmly believe that this continuous fit of laughter cured me." OVEK-WOKlvEl IIORSKS. Fine-Blooded Racers, as Well as Cart Horses, Mny Die from Too Much Exercise. Illustrated American. The death of Brother Ban, the popular race-horse, at Morris Park, in New York, brought tears to the eyes of many of tho old sporting men. Full of pluck to the last, the horse, in his struggles after falling, dragged himself up so that, with head erect, he hud his feet under him, as if ready to mako grand spring to head oil' his rivals. Then ho fell to the ground. His last race had been run, and he died with his eyes facing tho goal, "Heart failnro" was the cause of Brother Ban's death. We all know now. if we must believe all that the doctors tell us, that heart failure is simply exhanstion of the vital functions by overwork, worry of mind, and fast driving through life beyond the natural gait. If the way horses are run nowadays does not worry their 4mind', it certainly does strain their physical strengthnud, like men who are overworked, they break down. The great El Rio Key is now a "roarer," broken down because overstrained in the eflorts to outdo whatever was done before by him or any other horse in the way of speed. And eo pass the greatest away in the struggle for the prizes of life. After all, call it "heart f ailure" that makes a man. apparently in full bloom of youth, fall dead in the street, or Brother Ban. the horse, on tho race track, or that makes 1 Rio Mey grow short of breath at every run, like tho Wall-street man who loses sleep and rest to crown a "corner" with success it makes no difference. It is simply health weakened, life made short by disobedience to nature's laws, lhe man who kills him self has it in his power to make the world happier for himself and for man's best friend, the horse. But as tho world goes nowadays we suppose tho contests for place between men, like those between the race horses, will continue the same. "There are too many of us in the world now," said a V estern man one day, "and when one of us disappears he is soon lost sight of." That may be true. Erastus YImana Industry. Chicago rost. Erastus Wiman probably gets at work earlier than auy other business man of prominence in rew lork. He is not afraid of impairing his appetite for breakfast by looking over nis business correspondence, and, as a rule, he has finished a good share of his work before tho majority of men have started for their oOicea. He begins to dictate the answers to his letters at 6:30 in the morning in the summer and at 7 in the winter. His stenographer, who is an ener getic young man and a quick and accurate writer, calls at Mr. Wiman s house on taten island long before the family is astir, with the rooming's mail, which is brought by messenger from Now York. Mr. Wiman looks over the mail and dictates the letters rapidly. At 8 o'clock the steno grapher starts for New York, while Mr. Wiman sits down to breakfast with the family. By the time he gets to his oftico and has got rid of the first hour's routine work the letters which he has dictated are written out and ready for his signature.

A Doctrine That Wrecked Many Reasons. Los Angeles Tribune. The Eastern newspapers are saying that the passage of a bill for free coinage of silver will bo a serious blow to good money. They mean that gold is the eood money. What makes it so? It is the law which savs that 25.8 trralns of cold shall bo worth a dollar. If the law also says that 412Io grains ot silver shall be worth a dollar, what is the reason that one would not be as good as the other! It is the law that makes gold money.

There can ho no valid objection to tho supervision of a fair aud honest election. and the man who objects must do so be cause he wants to coerce voters or maniDtilate the reitnrns. neither of which is consistent with the idea of a free ballot and a fair count, which is tho fundamental idea of a representative government.

The police had to have three remounts before they could run that horse down. Two of the mounted police sighted McKeon and Cooper far ahead of them. They spurred on after them, thinking that they would bring the fugitives to halt on the steep bank of the Khenoster river. " . What was their surprise, however, when they saw McKeon leap his horse down the twenty-foot bank into the river, swim across, and when ho saw Cooper's horso would not follow, come back, and, reaching out, pull him through. One of the policemen hatt a Title and resolved to take a long rhot. When McKeon saw the smoke of the gun rise he and his compauion drew their horses apart, and the bullet passed between them. Shortly after McKeon drew his horse up. leaped down, removed the saddle, and stood patting his horse on tho head. The police approached and he surrendered without a word, giving over his two revolvers with the remark that he was enriching tho government with revolvers, for this was the sixth it had had from him. He said ho gave himself up because he did not wish to kill his horse. Cooper handed over his revolver, too, looking rather glum. McKeon aaid ho knew he would receive twentv-fi vo lashes, but he would only stay in jail for eight months, when ho wonld once more8ay good-by to the authorities. Ho did not know why tbey had given him twenty-live years, for he had not murdered any one or stolen a sheep or ox. Robbing a bank of its surplus was no crime. The police were entirely taken otf their guard, and, consequently, at daybreak tho next morning the birds bad flown uuoDerved by them. McKeon has since been recaptured at Ladybrand.

Suicido, as a rule, is reprehensible, but when it comes to the question of killing one's self or marrying the average title-hunting American heiress, one can scarcely blame the poor man for choosing the least of two evils.
