Pettis DryGoodsCo JACKSON WON'T SIGN THE PROPOSED FIGHT WITH CHAMPION COIIIIETT OFF FOR GOOD. Peter Wanted It to Tnke PInre Within Three Month, anil Dnvlra Made Fan of the Articles. CHICAGO. Sept. 11. The efforts of the Sioux City club to brine off a fight between Corbett and Jackson resulted to-day In complete failure, Jackson absolutely refusing to put his name to the articles of agreement as signed by Corbett. Edward Lloyd, representing the Sioux City club, met Jackson and his manager, "Parson" Davies, at the Itinera House at noon to-day in the presence of a good sized crowd of porting men and newspaper reporters. Little time was spent in preliminaries. Mr. Llovd produced the papers which Corbett had signed In New York. Jackson glanced over them and at once said that they would not do. "1 will fight for your purse and a side bet of 10.000," he said, "but the fight will have to come off within three months." "That's the Idea exactly." said Davies. "Mr. Corbett Is on the stage now and we don't Intend to advertize him until next May or June. This agreement calls for the fight to take place between May 15 and June 13. Now you people name your place and make the time wlthlnthe next three months and Jackson will sign." This Lloyd said he could not do, and DavUa proceeded to pick flaws with the papers, lie declared that the deal did not look honest. That no place was named, that there was no specification as to whether the men would fight ten rounds or ten years, or to a finish, and that the whole matter had a "peculiar" look. Jackion "chimed in" with an objectionto fighting "any place." "I want to light before a club and In a house." ho said. "I don't want the affair to take place in a field or a tent." Lloyd became considerably excited over the fun that Davies poked at the papers, but kept his temper and tried hard to obtain the necessary signature. He declared positively, however, -that he could not bring off the fight in tne time specified by Jackson. "We have got to have good weather to get a good crowd," he said. "I want to see this thing go through, but there is no use talking of bringing it off In three months." "It's three months or nothing," declared Davies. and Jackson added, "That's right." "Well, it's ofT." said Davies as he picked iu) his hat. "I did not like the looks of this thing anyway." Jackson followed, and the pair left the hotel. It was announced later that Jackson would leave for New York to-night and Immediately sail for the West Indies, whnc he will go to London. "It la apparently useless to try to get a fight with Corbett." the rugilist said. "I could not afford to lie around doing nothing all winter while Corbett was on the stage making money out of the advertisement this fight would give him. The thing U clear off now. I'll try London awhile." Corbett Distrusted. WASHINGTON. Sept. 11. Champion Corbett talked freely with a reporter to-night concerning Jackson's refusal to sign the articles for a fight under the auspices of the Sioux City Athletic Club next year. He expressed his hearty disgust at Jackson's actions and reiterated his oft-repeated views of the colored man's fear to fight him. Corbett insisted that Jackson's objections to those portions of the articles that f.-illed to point out the place of fighting and the duration of the contest were very trivial and ought not to have any consideration in the minds of the people. He pointed out in this connection that in his fight with Mitchell there was no certainty regarding the time of the tight, even the day before the battle. All Jackson was now after, he said, was his JiO.OuO deposited in Chicago and then get out of the country. "Will you accommodate Jackson by agreeing to fight him within three months, as he desires?" the reporter asked. ' "Certainly I will tight him in three months, or in two weeks, and even tomorrow if it were possible," replied Corbett. "Hut what is. the use of saying that, for Jackson knows that the Sioux City Club can't make arrangements to pull off the fight in that time. First Jackson said he wouldn't fight me in the South. Now, when there Is an opportunity to fight in the North, he shows his unwillingness to meet we by refusing to sign the articles for a contest." Unit nud Clioynskl to Meet.

THE REDS WERE EASY

SHAIIMIG'S MEV COME HOME AMI THOtACn CICI..ATI. They HIT Wlttrock Freely, While the lied' Just 31 1 a Shut-Out Kanmi City To.u, The Indianapolis ball players were late getting out to the grounds yesterday and when they arrived it was In squads of three and four. TThey hurried to the clubhouse and noon emerged in the old familiar uniforms, which look a few shades the worse from conflict with wild Western soil. There was no enthusiasm manifested over their return, and the effervescent Mr. Latham, of the Cincinnati team, was inclined to refer pointedly to this fact and make merry over it. Being himself a member of a losing team he knew how it felt. There were five- hundred people at the grounds, and they were inclined to do more or less "guying" and to take very little, if anything, seriously. They expected to see Indianapolis whipped, but Sharsig's men . fooled them. Just as soon as they strike the home grounds the Indianapolis team appears to develop that mysterious winning element that is latent all the time the players are on strange territory. They played fast ball yesterday, such. In fact, as would win nine times out of ten. Cincinnati was outclassed from first to last, and never in the game. Nothing could get away from the Indianapolis fielders, and they hit Wittrock Just" at the right time to pile up runs. Phillips was In his old, home-grounds form, ami the Reds found him safely but four times. If Sharsig's men would only play such ball away from home, Indianapolis would have no cause to complain of its representatives in the Western League. It was faultless support they gave the big pitcher, and the only thing approaching a mistake on their part was the failure to cover third in the Cincinnati half of the first Inning, whereby Hoy managed to score the visitors' only run and save them from a shut-out. McCarthy had three? brilliant running catches, and Gray took a long hit from McPhee's bat in the ninth inning In his usual clever style. Roat covered more ground at short than Is usual with him In this city, at least, and the last ball hit In the ninth inning he made a sensational stop of, throwing Canavan out at first. Westlake made his reappearance behind the bat and caught a steady game. McCarthy started the game with a little hit between pitcher and. the first-base line, which "Wlttrock picked up and threw toward Parrott, hitting the runner in the head. This gave McCarthy a life, and he reached third on Henry's single to center. Hoy fumbling the ball. Gray fbllowed with a safe drive to right and stole second, and Motz sent both men in with a single to center. Mills forced Motz at second, Westlake hit safe to right, but Roat and Shields were disposed of in order, leaving two men on bases. Cincinnati's only run was scored in the last half of the opening Inning, when, with one out, Hoy hit safe to center and Holllday followed with a hit to left. Hoy would have been caught at third on this hit had the base been properly covered, but as it was he reached there safely and kept on home when McCarthy threw to Shields to catch Holllday at second. The throw resulted in cutting Holllday off all right, and it was in that way the visitors scratched out a run. McPhee retired the side from Uoat to Motz. No more runs were scored until the sixth, when Shields started with a safe hit to left, and Phillips sent one across second for a base. McCarthy felt that he was about due, and so lifted the ball to deep left for two bases, sending Shields in and Phillips to third. Henry hit to center, and it looked for a moment as If Hoy was going to get under the short fly, but he could not reach it and Phillips scored. Henry stole second, went to third on Grav's sacri fice, on which McCarthy scored, and came home on a passed ball. Motz reached first on balls, but was caught trying to steal second, and Mills went out from Murphy to Parrott. Latham's wild throw allowed Westlake to reach second as a starter in the seventh. Roat hit to pitcher and Westlake was caught between bases, while the shortstop reached first. Shlelds's single to left moved Roat up a baas and Wittrocks wild throw let him to third. Phillips flew out to McPhee, but McCarthy came along with another two-bagger, this time to right center, and Roat scored, but Shields overran third base and was put out before he could get back. This was all the scoring that was done. Comlskey's men made but two hits after the first inning, and had but six men on bases, nobody reaching third and only one man getting as far as second. Their fielding was somewhat ragged, Wittrock helping the bad work along to the extent of three errors. Score: Indianapolis. A.B. R.' H. O. A. E.

THE PIANO'S FLKUTI.XG TOXH. No Instrument In Use Can Hold Its Best Ton More Thun Six MontliM. New York Sun. "Thla Instrument," said the piano dealer, as he ran his finger lightly over the keys. "Is uneven In tone. It is somewhat worn. You ask $300, but I cannot give you mora than $130." "An absurd offer," exclaimed the owner of the instrument indignantly. "That piano is not yet a year old. and it cost ma $400 when new. As regards its tone, it Is better to-day than it was when I bought it." "There is where you are wrong," responded the dealer. "Why, there ia not a piano made that holds its tone for longer than six months if it has been used to any extent. Of course you, having heard this Instrument every day, cannot detect any difference in its tone. As it has gradually deteriorated in quality your ear has gradually deteriorated with it. All musicians know that the ear can be educated down as well as up. An artist, or a competent piano salesman for that matter, could tell Immediately that your piano was the worse for wear a trifle worn." "But I have a written guarantee that this instrument would last for five years, and do you mean to tell me that It is worn out already?" "To all intents and purposes it is as good as new and will probably remain so as long as your guarantee holds good and longer. But it has lost its original tone nevertheless, although the change would be perceptible only to an educated ear. Pianos are said to last a lifetime, and for ordinary use? good ones do. but for artistic purposes they last but live or six months, as I hare said. No first-class pianist would give a public recital on an old instrument nor will an Artist use an old piano even for practice. When Paderewskl was in this country he used up a new piano in practice every month. He realised that even an ear as educated as his would lose Its fine perception of tone if ha accustomed it to the gradual changes that time and usage effect in a piano. "The ear for tone Is such a very delicate sense that it can be deteriorated, without the knowledge of its possessor. Custom exerts a powerful influence on the matter. To employ a familiar illustration: You have - observed that those in daily Intercourse with the sick fail to mark any material chaiige for weeks at a time. But the changes have taken place nevertheless, and are plainly noticeable .to outsiders. "It is exactly so with pianos. Those who play upon them every day fall to mark the gradual falling off in their tone that time effects. The deterioration 'has taken place in such imperceptible degrees that the ear has failed to distinguish it. Hence a piano five or six years old is as satis-: factory to the ordinary player as It was when he first bought it and it was new. "Pianos are at best but imperfect Instruments," continued the dealer. "The chamois skin caps that cover the hammers In the middle octaves are worn down soon?! than those in the lower and upper, because they are brought into play oftener. and an unevenness of tone in the instrument results. Even the sounding board wears out in time. The constant vibrations of sound to which it Is subjected cause a disintegration of particles in the wood of which it is made, and it becomes porous, losing its resonant quality. So you see that when I ofTer you $150 for your Instrument I am making you a fair bid. especially when you take into consideration the fact that I shall have to sell it for $200 or more to recompense me for my pains." TIIK HALF-CENT COIX. It In l'rcd flint We Need It In the Intereiit of Economy. Boston Transcript. Soma of the conservatives and the longheaded 'are saying that this government ought to resume the coining of the half-cent.-dropped in 1857. as an approach to the much smaller coins of France, Germany. ltaly-in fact, all European countries. Our fault is a nation of wastefulness, extravagance A shrewd Boston manufacturer the other day remarked that at present he regarded the South as the most prosperous part of the country, simply because she was living within her means and paying her debts promptly In cash or Its equivalent, paper legal tender. At the North, he said, all our present financial misery is caused by our people's extravagant standards, their feverish speculating life, and living beyond their means. In the West It is tho same. In San Francisco copper ia seorned; car conductors refuse It. or used to. There, aa well as In New Orleans, nothing is done for less than a "nickle." In Philadelphia a boy will scarcely black your boots for less than two nlckles. In VIcksburg the planters used contemptuously to throw coppers ti th floor or ground; even the negroes refusing to pick them up. But if the wild war extravagance ia to cease. If we are going to practice some of the smtll economies of life (which are. really the small virtue), then it follows as the night the day we must no longer scorn the cent or the half-cent. A thousand times a year vou need the half-cent in your shopping. "I make nothing when I Fell one copy of a cent paper." said a Boston newsboy to th writer. "I only make a cent when I sell two papers." But these newsboys (how many are there 50.000 of them in the United States?) should have the half-cent and should have the half-cent cako and half-cent bun to buv with It. Give us back the democratic coin, and let us.lern our sorest needed lesson economy. The half-cent was coined from 1792 to Febru ary, 1857, at the very close of President Pierce's term. Why was it discontinued? It might now be resumed and prove the mascot of the Democratic party. Turn us out a few, gentlemen of Congress, and let us see how we like them. Let us have back the old coin of our boyhood. We don't want the centime, pfenning. oi centeslmo (each of these coins of the value of one-fifth of one cent and current in France. Germany and Italy, respectively). but we do want that convenient half-cent of a generation ago. Zola's "Loiirdes." Paris Letter in New York Post. Controversy still rages' about Zola's "Ixmrdes," and the result Is a tremendous sale. As usual, the words "natural" and "supernatural" are bandied about without having any exact sense attached to them. As to the fact3. a damaging protest has been made by the authorities of the little commune where Bernadette, tht seer, received her first religious impressions. They assert Indignantly that the devotions in the church described by the novelist never existed, and that this whole description has been concocted with the view of suggesting that the young girl's first impressions were simply reproduced in her later visions. It is not the first time a well-founded attack has been made on the facts as well as the grouping of facts with which Zola attempts to illustrate his scientific theories. Hdouard Bod. a young Protectant professor from Geneva, who is coming on wonderfully in the Parisian world of letters, says of Zola, in general, that his Inaccuracy in facts is as nothing compared to the inadequacy of his scientific attainments. The school of Zola has died a natural death during the lifetime of its founder. But this latest work, like all others from his hands, is proving an admirable commercial speculation. No one has ever doubted the infinite pains with which he elaborates his powerful, if brutal, descriptions, and the very curious scent he possesses of the subjects sure to impassion the lln-de-slecle reading public. Quiet Times t'niler Democracy. Louisville Commercial. Under Republican administration the wages of carpenters, bricklayers, plasterers, tinners, painters, masons, all were higher and it cost us more to build fine houses. The wages of sewing women and tailors were higher, and It cost us more for fine clothes. Factories were running, and our beautiful city was darkened by the smoke of thousands of chimneys; the peaceful quiet of the city was broken ly ihe clanging hammers and rattling Jokih of the workshops nJ mills : ordinary workIngmea crowded the s:reti cars a.d their wives crowded the markets and Kiores. Now things are quiet and the people have time for politics, and politics makes a city and a country prosperous and happy. That ia why Louisville is t? prosperous; ro smoke, no crowding at the stores, no work; nothing but politics.

VATK1S WILL MAX AG 1-2 PITTSIIVKCJ. Xntlomtl LenKiie Henchlnpr Out for Western Plnyerw Several Scenred. The National League clubs have already begun to draft players from the Western League for next season, and the ranks of the latter organization will be found depleted before October is fairly here. Pittsburg is going to take Frank Genins, the crack outfielder of the Western League, and -who has done phenomenal work for Sioux City this season. The Pittsburg offlcials have wanted Genins ever since Sioux City defeated their team in the spring exhibition games, and they have also had their weather eye on Manager Watkins, who, as a consequence, will be found guiding the destinies of the Pittsburg club next season. Watkins is said to have already signed a contract with them. Cllngman, Milwaukee's shortstop, and Nlles, Kansas City's third baseman, will also go to Pittsburg, Watkins engineering these deals as well as the Genins one. Catcher "Buster" Burrell. of Minneapolis, will play with Chicago next season, Anson having already completed a deal for him. He is one of the likeliest young backstops in the country and a fine hitter as well. Several League clubs are looking In the direction of Indianapolis, and it Is supposed that Gray Is the player who Is responsible for it. He will undoubtedly be wanted in the big league and Cincinnati Is pretty tolerably sure to get him. Motz and McCarthy have never been released by that club, and Phillips's name is more than likely to be found on a Cincinnati contract before the first frost comes. SOME AXOXYMOfS LETTERS. Clinrgea Awnlnnt n t'tlon. Woman Ilecitll a Similar Cane. Washington Post. HlKory has repeated itself In regard to the case of Mrs. Jennie F Goff, prominent in the leading social world of Utica. N. Y. That matron Is charged with sending objectionable matter through the malls In the form of letters calculated tr bring discord among the most fashionable families In the city in tvhich she resides. The misdemeanor, it seems, has been going on for a number of years, and, notwithstanding the most stringent endeavors on the part of the postoffice authorities to detect the offender, it has until the present remained a mystery. Mrs. Goff Is not only prominent In society, but is active as a member of one of the leading churches. Moreover, she is a woman of wealth, her fortune being estimated to be of no less than $50,000. She is now up for examination and trial hefore United States Commissioner Rowlands, of Rome, N. Y.t on the charge of sending Improper matter through the United States mail. Personally, Mrs. Goff is a handsome woman and appeared In court when summoned dressed in a rich though extremely quiet gown. Several of the best families of Utica have been receiving objectionable letters for many years. The letters were shown to the postmaster, who In turn notified the chief inspector in Washington. The Postoffice Department sent Its best men to Utica, and they worked night and day on the case for weeks, but without success. Even while the detectives were employing all their ingenuity the letters continued to be sent through the mails. The address was always put on with a rubber stamp and red ink, and the letters were always posted In different parts of the city or outskirts. The Inspectors gave up the job, after spending weeks on the case. Still the letters appeared, causing endless trouble in families of best known citizens. Husbands received letters containing grave charges against their wives, wives received alleged revelations about their husbands and fathers were cautioned about their daughters. All of this caused Intense feeling and there was the strongest desire to catch the author of the stories. . Postoffice Inspector Coates, who had worked on the case before without success, again took charge of the matter, and after placing several persons under suspicion, he iiad some postage stamps marked and given to the postoffice clerks to sell onlv to a certain person. Mrs. Goff, who had been one of the suspects, is said to have bought some of the marked stamps which were afterward found on letters containing the obnoxious allegations. When arrested on July 2SJ last she pleaded not guilty and furnished ball for examination. United States District Attorney Poucher, of Oswego, N. Y., appeared for the people Friday, and Representative Sherman for Mrs. Goff, who paid close attention to the proceedings. Deputy Postmaster William Fhilleo Identified two letters, one of which was addressed to Mrs. Angelina T. Halley. Mr. Phllleo testified to marking one hundred two-cent stamps on June 2 last, having delivered them to clerk M. J. Casey. Mr. Casey Identified as marked stamps those on the two letters which had been' placed In evidence. Casey's testimony showed that Mrs. Goff had purchaaed one hundred stamps in all, and that fifty of the marked ones were sold to her on July 13. Mr. Sherman moved to dismiss Mrs. Ooff on the ground that there was no case against her. and that the evidence failed to connect her with the objectionable letters. The commissioner denied the motion. Mrs. Goff's bondsman. M. G. Thomson, is in New York, and to allow her to get a new bondsman the case was set down for Sept. 3. This virtually hold3 her for the action of the grand Jury, which meets in Buffalo, N. Y., this month. The case is one that will be read and watched throughout Its course with more than ordinary interest by Washingtonians, especially those of the elder resident set, who well remember when a peculiar case in Washington caused one of the greatest sensations that the social world knew during the second Grant administration. To this day the mystery of the blackmailing letters has never been cleared up, but at the time suspicion rested so strongly upon two of the most prominent society women who ever held sway in the national capital, and one of these the wife of one of the Cabinet officers, that President and Mrs. Grant considered it sufficient grounds for them to be excluded from the White House. Like the Goff case, again the objection able letters were sent covering a period of several years, and took for their shining mark the members of General Grant's Cabinet. Not a single member escaped. To each and all In turn the letters came, baffling the skill and Ingenuity of the detectives finally put to work upon the case. The charges contained in the let ters were in many instances afterward fully verified in such manner that the public gained some most undesirable In sight Into the inner private lives of some of the officials named. From the general tenor of the letters it was evident at a glance that they were written by no ordinary person, or one giving data from hearsaj'. Not only were the Cabinet officers attacked In their official and private characters in the letters written to the wives, but in return thore directed to the Cabinet ministers themselves contained - eqinl'y startling charges against" the ladies of the Cabinet. Those who received the letters were aware, quite as much as the detectives employed in the case, that the writer was a woman, and one who from her position In society gave her ample opportunity to see, observe and hear as well as to make up all the details that might otherwise have caused the letters to lose their significance and deprived them of their unusual importance. Those who knew of the affair at the time state that the President then for the first tlm became Informed of much that later, being published throughout the length and breadth of the country, became general property. The news, coming to him in such a manner, was not, of course, paid attention to at the time, but later, when events developed themselves, not only he. but many others in the secret, marveled greatly from what source the writer had obtained the Information at that stage of the game. Patriotism of the Masaen. W. E. Curtis, in Chicago Record. Any one who thinks that patriotism is submerged In selfish indifference among the lower classes of our population should visit KoFter & Rial's vaudeville entertainment and witness the demonstration that gleets the representation of "The Spirit of '76." when it is shown among the "living pictures." The naked women and the studies in high art are greeted with an ordinary amount of applause, but when "The Sp.rit of 7ti" is shown the audience always Irciks into a furore. The men shout and clap their hands, and the women wave their handkerchiefs, and the picture has to be hown a half dozen times every night before the people are satisfied. The . subjects cf the "living pictures" at this place have been changed three times, but this one remains oa the programme because the public demand it. It is a picture every one is familiar with. An old man dressel in the tonti- , nental uniform, with his white hair floAt-

ing In the breeze, blowing a fife, rrarchlr.f at the head of a siuad of recruits. whil besh'.e him Is a young drummer. There La fire in the old man's eye, although his llmbt are lean and his face wrinkled. The p;cturt was painted by a man in Clevelind, I believe, and was sold extensively several years ago In photographs, lithographs and engravings. Nor is this an exceptional thing. The managers of the show at the Garden Theater have "caught on" to its popularity, and they throw a stereoptican view of the United States flag against a screen dur'ns the waits between the living iu lures. You will always notice that Old Glory gets ta times as much applause as Venus T Psyche, or any of those ancient belles of the bath. STORY OF AN EXILE

3IR. LAMPTOX TELLS OF INLIDLWTS AT RLVUFICLDS. Eleven Americans, I'tiKltshnien and Xntlven Arrested, Given Xo Trial and Hurried Out of the Country. NEW ORLEANS, Sept. ll.-The TimesDemocrat has the following from Port LImon, Costa Rica, under date of Sept. 4: "The following exiles from Blu;flelds, eleven in number, arrived 'in this port via Punta Renas this afternoon: E. D. Hitch (English), acting vice consul; . S. Hodgson (native), clerk Supreme Court; S. A. Hodgson (native). Judge Suprems Court; Washington Oliver (English), cleik; A. Markland Tyler (English), editor and owner of the Blueflelds Messenger; G. B. Wiltbank (American), planter; W. H. Jrwn (English), merchant; L. N. Lampton (American), planter; Charles Paterin tnatlvej. Vice President; J. W. Cuthbert (English), Attorney-general, and J. O. Thomas (English), Judge Supreme Court. Theje f.re all prominent business men in the res J.vatVu, and most of them are leaving considerable property behind. They are undecided as to their future movements, their intention at present being to remain here until some definite action in regard to their hrrest and detention has been taken by their respective governments. They ail express themselves highly Indignant at the reports of the American papers, to the effect that their, actions are In any way responsible tor the uprising of July 5. Tnls they emphatically deny, and they say that the only foreigners who were at ail Implicated In this uprising left the country immediately after they found the part they hai played made them subject to arrest by the Nlcaraiguan government, and after being refused protection by their respective consuls and the captains of the war vessels. They say that during the whole trouble but two lives have been lost and these were the two NIearaguan soldiers, who were killed on the evening of July 6. Mr. Lampton has made a statement in the presence of E. D. Hatch. W. H. Brown, G. B. WUtbank and other members of the party, who corroborate In every particular. The data of this account is witnessed by Mr. Tylor, of the Blueflelds Messenger, who apparently has gone to great pains in keeping records of every detail. Mr. Lampton, says: "On the morning of Aug. 16 twelve of us, all residents In Blueflelds and business men of more or less prominence, were notified by the chief of police, in the service of the NIearaguan government, that Dr. Jose Madriz. special commander of thf Mosquito reservation, desired to see us. This call was willingly answered, it being the opinion that It was the commissioner's desire to see us on matters appertaining to the causes that brought about the troubles In the reservations. On arrival at the government building we were met at the head of the stairs by armed soldiers, who demanded to know our business, and on learning it, the officer in command carried up our respective cards and were at once admitted into the council chamber. We were notified to consider ourselves prisoners of Nicaragua, and a decree was read to the effect that we ould have to proceed at -once to Managua, to answer certain charges, and in eh.se of refusing to go, we would be expelled from the country. On inquiring the nature of these charges, the NIearaguan Minister of War tcld us that he was unable to give them, upon which eight of the twelve present, including E. D. Hatch, William Brown and G. B. Wiltbank, elected to leave the country on the gronds that the Atlantic coast had been declared by the NIearaguan government to be under martial law. and, therefore, they were entitled to be . tried, and were prepared, at the place of their arrest Bluefields. The others agreed to go to Managua to answer -whatever charges might be brought against them. We then asked for time to wind up our affairs, and it was agreed by the Attorney-general that three days should be given us for that purpose. After consideration by the NIearaguan officials, however, this concession was countermanded, and we were given one hour only to consult with our people, and this had to be done in writing, with copying ink. and a copy taken by the NIearaguan government. At this time we were all penniless and without extra clothln;? or bedding, but this fact wa treated with perfect indifference by the NIearaguan authorities. We were taken to Managua. From this point we were sent to Punta Renas. We have never been Informed of any charges against us; In fact, we are lust as well informed as when we left Bluefields." Governor Stone Ilenrd From. JACKSON, Miss., Sept. 11. This morning Governor Stone received a telegram Iroia the New York World stating that an English committee had arrived In New York, to Investigate Southern lynchlngs and asked him what he thought about it. The Governor sent the following answer: "If the English government, had sent a committee here to Investigate and denounce Southern lynchlngs. which ia none of its business, the act might have been entitled to respectful consideration, but the source from which this committee comes is supremely contemptible, and its attempt to meddle with the affairs of any part of the United States is pitifully puerile and utterly degrading." Her Devotion to n Cause. Washington Star. "Marguerite," he murmured, "will you be mine?" "Harold." she answered, "I believe in the emancipation of our sex. My zealous devotion to the cause compels me to Insist upon what may to you seem a punctilious absurdity." "Nothing you 'say can seem absurd," he protected. "Modesty forbade me," she went on, "to frame the original question. But now that you have spoken, tnere Is no Impropriety in my offering an amendment. Do not ask me if I will be yours; ask me if I will permit you to be mine." Here's n Recipe. Boston Transcript. "Times would very soon cease to be dull if everybody would rise to his full mental height," said the high distlnguf jheJ psychic dab, looking benignly over his spectacles. "This country would very soon emerge from its depressed condition of financial stringency, of strikes, forest fires, etc, if eery man, woman and child would throw back the mental shoulders, expand the intellectual lungs and speak no words and think no thoughts except of cheer, and courage, and hope." Cleveland Traveling: Doctor. Atchison Globe. President Cleveland is accompanied everywhere by a physician. This may not be a sign of ill health eo much as a sign of fashion.
