The Grand' Opening "Blue Jeans." The Grand, In Its beautiful new dress, will reopen this evening for the season of 1834-05 with the always welcome "Blue Jeans," oi of the most fascinating dramas ever written. The most striking characteristics in Joseph Arthur's play are its wealth of picturesque pastoral scenes. Before the play has half progressed to Its end one feels that he has an acquaintance to be proud of in Terry Bascom; that he knows the Innermost thoughts of the frank and prankish June; that were he to meet the genial and whole-souled Col. Henry Clay Rlsener In the corridor of the "I'oe House," as shown In the second scene of the fourth act, he 'would receive a hearty handshake and welcome. There are thirteen characters In "Blue Jeans," aside from those who compose the village band and the mill hands quartet. "Blue Jeans" stays all this week at the Grand, with popular priced matinees Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Park TheaterThe Xeavllles. The NeuvMes, Madame and her son Augustln, have entertained thousands of theater-goers here In the I past seasons. They open at the Park this afternoon in an entirely new sensational comedy drama called "Cell 22." an American play dealing with every-day life in New York. Heretofore Madame Neuville has confined herself almost exclusively to emotional roles, but "Cell 22" presents her in an entirely different character, and she is said to be quite as successful in it as in her favorite characters. There are numerous thrilling situations in "Cell 22" which make it exciting. The company Is of the capable sort that the Neuvllles always bring as their support. "Cell 22" will be the bill, beginning with to-day's matinee, until Friday, when "The Boy Tramp" - will be put on for the two closing- days of the engagement. "The Boy Tramp" Is an old favorite here. There will be the usual dally matinees during the week; At the Empire. Remarkably fine will be the spectacular effects in 'The World," which highly sensational melodrama is. to be the fair week attraction at the Empire. Every act presents some thrilling tableau. For the great wreck scene the whole stago Is required. A full rigged ship Is 'shown laboring In a storm. The storm grows in power till finally the ship disappears beneath the waves, leaving all hands battling for life In the water. The raft scene, in which three castaways are rescued by a friendly ship, is another exceedingly realistic piece of stage mechanism. Another realistic representation Is that of the lunatic asylum and the beautiful moonlight panorama, showing the river bank, with its ruined castles and romantic scenery. Through the action of this drama there is a vein of strong comedy and several interesting pecialties. The leading role as-: sumed by the well-known actor Mr. G. O. Morris. English' "A Hide fur Life.' There are few melodramatic productions that are said to even approach "A Ride for Life" in scenic and mechanical effect. It opens a week's engagement at English's to-night, when it will be seen for the first time In this city. The story Is said to be Interesting, the dialogue impressive and the situations and incidents consistent. The author, Mr. Fess'er, has striven to avoid the conventional, both In dialogue and situation. Some idea of the expensive as well as extensive character of the production nay be had from the claim that it cost $23,000 to put it out this season. The company la exceptionally strong, both In melodramatic and comedy talent. There wljl be matinees, at popular prices, Wednesday and Saturday, err v sews yoiKs. There will be a mass local option meeting at the Criminal Court room next "Wednesday evening. At a meeting of the Caledonian Quoltlng Club, Friday night, epL 28, James Somervllle will give a talk on his experiences while traveling In India. , Albert Hathaway, aged fifteen years, a fugitive from the State Reform School at Plalnfleld, was placed in the custody of the police yesterday by Albert Mayhew. Robert J. Heller, residing at No. 90 East Pratt street, who created a - disturbance last Friday night while intoxicated, was arrested yesterday by patrolman PopeMrs. Eliza M. Curd, aunt of Mrs. Solon L. Goode, died last evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Goode, 90S North Meridian street. Brief services will be held at the house this afternoon at 4 o'clock. On Tuesday morning the remains will be accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. .Goode to Lexington, Ky., where the interment will take place. A Fight on Indiana Avenue.

Ashby threw a brick, which hit Hartman In the face and the lattr'drew his pocket nlfe and cut Ashby in the left side, making an ugly wound. Hartman fled, but was arrested later by patrolmen Crannon and Boylan. The Lnte Rear Admiral McCnuley. Springfield Republican. Rear Admiral Edward Yoke McCauley, who died last week In Jamestown, R. I., was born at Philadelphia, Nov. 2. 1826; his uncle was Commodore Charles Stewart McCauley, who was nephew of Admiral Charles Stewart, so that the sea rervice ol the nation was a sort of birthright. His uncle obtained his appointment as midshipman 1n 1S41. He resigned in 1S59. being thn lieutenant, but re-entered the service as acting lieutenant in the spring of 1S61. In his earlier period he was in the Powbatan at the grand clearing out of pirates l.i the Chinese seas in 1855. and was on the J.'lagam when the first Atlantic cable was laid in 1857. His duties were on the flagf hip of the South Atlantic squadron in JSG1-G2; as lieutenant commander he commanded the steamer Fort Henry, of the eastern gulf blockading squadron. in 1SG2-6J, and was in command of the Tioga In lSf.3-61. taking part in the boat attack on Bayport. Fla. During the closing months of the war he had charge of the famous gunboat Benton, of the Mississippi squadron. After the war McCauley was fleet captain of the North Atlantic squadron, commander of the Portsmouth and Boston navy-yards, and superintendent of the Annapolis Naval Academy; he also, in 16, commanded the Pacific squadron. In 1SS7 he was relieved. Fortune did not cast In the way of Admiral McCauley the prizes of glory; he had to be content with those of faithful performance of duty. He was authorv of "The Egyptian rManual and Dictionary," published at Philadelphia In 1833. He leaves two daughters and two sons; one of his sons Is a surgeon in the navy.

3IIXXEAPOI.1S AGAIN TO-DAY. Detroit's Vain Hope Suggestions the Indianapolis MannKement. Minneapolis will try It again this afternoon at the ball grounds, and this time will presen: either Baker with his slow drops or tM long, learn Parvln with his speedy ones.' Indianapolis wtil have either Cross or Phillips In the box, and the game should be an exciting one. Judging from the past struggles between these teams here, which have Invariably been hot arguments all through. To-morrow Minneapolis plays again, and for the last time this season. Sioux City comes Wednesday for three garnet, and Milwaukee Saturday tor
two. the Sunday game being scheduled at Milwaukee. The closing game of the West-
ern League season will take place Tuesday of next week. The Detroit Dlavers have been having a good deal to say about beating Indianapolis out, but will have to move at a faster clip this week than they did last In order to no it. Their chances of bettering their posi tion are not as good as those of Indianapolis for doing so. Grand Rapids is but a lew points ahead or snars;gs men. ana If the Indianapolis management will only lnsits on those two Grand Rapias games m which lllesral balls were used being thrown out fifth place may be secured. The claim should be pushed every day until the allow ance is made, ror it 13 a just one, ana Indianapolis was forced to play a game over and win it twice on the same grounds. The management should also endeavor to get Milwaukee to transfer next bunday's came from there to this city and play a double-header. This would save each team considerable money, and toy maKing a good liberal offer to Milwaukee the matter could doubtless be arranged. A doubleheader next Saturday or Monday would draw out an old-time crowd. Toledo, 10; Detroit, 8. TOLEDO, Sept. . 16. To-day's exhibition looked more like a game of giveaway than baseball.

James Johnston quietly married Miss Amelia Day, of this place, in June last in the face of fierce opposition of his mother, Mra John B. Miller, who, far from being forgiving after three months, yesterday horsewhipped the bride and the bride's mother. Mrs. Miller's second husband is a brother of the late Mrs. Jay Gould, from whom he inherited a considerable fortune,' It is said. Mrs. Miller's first husband, from whom she obtained a divorce, ls incurably Insane. She purchased the handsome estate of Joseph Jefferson at Hohokus several years ago and has made It her home. Her opposition to her son's engagement to Miss Day was well known, and her personal dislike of Miss Day's mother amounted to a positive mania. Owing to a misunderstanding with his mother James left his homo last April and went to the Herbert House. Mrs. Miller's dislike for Miss Day was based upon the mental Inequality of her son and the young woman. It Is said her freauent reference to Miss Day as "a simpleton" and her mother as "a scheming matchmaker" so. angered Jq.mes that he left home. The marriage of the young folks took nlace on June 20 at the residence of the brida without notification to Mr. Johnston's mother or stepfather. The newly married couple left town without delay. When Mrs. Miller heard the news next day she made an onslaught on the Day mansion In Prospect street. She tried to force her way into the house, but Mrs. Day called the domestics to her aid and double barred the doors. Mrs. Miller returned and became so demonstrative that Mrs. Day called upon Constable Ackerman and special policeman Campbell. Justle Wall finally induced the almost frantic visitor to get Into a carriage and go home, but not before a window had been smashed. Three weeks ago the young couple returned to Rldgewood and engaged a suite of rooms at the Herbert House. Mrs. Day and the bride frequently drove out in the afternoon behind a white pony, a Christmas gift to Amelia from her brother. They were Jogging along at an easy gait In Pleasant avenue yesterday when the bride clutched her mother's arm as she glanced backward and caught a glimpse of Mrs. Miller. "Gracious, mother," she exclaimed, "drive on faster. Here comes Jim's mother." Sure enough Mrs. Miller was a short distance behind in a smart looking "trap." With an imperious wave of her hand she commanded her coachman to "drive on and overtake those people." The man's slowness to obey was construed as a refusal, and Mrs. Miller cried, "Do as I tell you or I'll discharge you." Again he held back, as though hoping to give the Days a chance to escape. T,ben Mrs. M'ller snatched the whip from his hand and struck the horse a blow which brought It to the pony cart. A Jerk on the reins pushed the pony cart against a fence skirting tr.e roadway and further progress was impossible. Whip In hand. Mrs. Miller leaned from the carriage and rained blow, after blow upon the head to and shoulders of .Mrs. Day and her daughter, accompanying each blow with strong verbal expressions of her feelings. The coachman meanwhile was trying to extricata the "trap" from the tansle, and as soon as he KOt It free urged the horse on at a furious pace to Hokokus. Mrs. Day was cut about the eye by the whip lash and hr daushter was severely bruised. It is understood legal measures have been instituted against Mrs. Miller for heavy damages. What part Mr. Johnston will play in the quarrel is a matter of much conjecture. A Fast Gait. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. The Morton boom seem to hve struck a RoUrt J. salt.

Prince Bismarck today, received a large deputation of admirers from Stolp, in Pomerania and Posen.

He thanked the deputation for the kind wishes expressed in the speeches of the leaders," and then dilated upon the Polish question. He declared that the Poles could not be entitled to a casting vote in affairs of the empire. Neither Alsace-Lorraine nor Posen could ever be given up. Alsace and Lorraine were necessary for the protection of southern Germany, and Posen was necessary for the protection of the eastern frontier.

Explorer "Wellman to Leaye England This Week Oyen Not Deserted. LONDON, Sept. 16. Mr. Walter Wellman, the leader of the American Arctic expedition, whose plans to explore the far north were frustrated by the sinking of his vessel, the Ragnvald Jarl, which was crushed by the Ice, will sail from Southampton for New York on Wednesday next by the steamer Spree. He will be accompanied by the American members of his party. In the course of an interview to-day Mr. Wellman said that the failure of Lieutenant Parry to reach north Greenland shows that, like the Wellman expedition, he met with unusual difficulties arising from the- extremely unfavorable season. Altogether, Mr. Wellman declared, it had been a bad year for Arctic exploration. He warmly defended his expedition against the charges made of Inexperience and bad outfit. He especially protested that he had not abandoned Professor Oyen on Danes Island. The Professor, he added, had 1,200 pounds of provisions on the island and was therefore in no : danger of suffering for lack of food. Professor Oyen himself had publicly absolved him from the charge of abandonment. In conclusion," Mr. Wellman stated that all the Norwegian members of the expedition had promised to accompany the next expedition. As to Messrs. French, Mohun and Dodge, truer, braver or better men could not be found. Russia's Ofiiclnl Cholera Report. ST.

The practice of bicycling has increased with such astonishing rapidity as to have become one of the distinguishing features of modern society. The connection of this art witn tne development or an extended system of good road3 is obviously very close, and as the roads of this country are still, to a great extent, ill constructed, the use of the bicycle may be regarded as here In its infancy. In the older countries, where the density cf population is such as to make the expensa of building perfect roads tol erable, bicyclers have multiplied to such an extent as to rar outnumber, apparently, those who use horses. One satisfactory result of this new sj'stem for tourists promises to be the rehabilitation of the wayside inn; an Institution which was practically ruined in this country by "the decay of the stage coach. An experiment recently tried In England shows that it is not improbable that the art of war may receive some modification from this new method of movement. A dub of cyclists, wishing to show what might be done in the way of carrying dispatches in time of war, when other means of communication had broken down, asked the War Office to let them carry a dispatch from London to Edinburgh and bring back a reply. The War Office, with the usual stupidity of a government bureau, declined to have anything: to do with the matter, but it was arranged with the Pall Mall Gazette that their offices in the two cities rhould be used as termini. Relays of cyclists, riding in pairs to avoid loss of time by accident, were duly stationed, and the letter once started, was carried through England, as the Spectator says, like a fiery cross. The weather was extremely bad, the rain falling in torrents, and a head wind being encountered all the way to Edinburgh. Nevertheless, between 10 o'clock of a Thursday morning and 2:27 of the next Saturday, the dispatch was carried to its destination and the answer brought back. The distance of eight hundred miles was thus covered In fifty-two hours and twentyseven minutes, an average of fifteen and one-quarter miles an hour. In the very best days of coaching the shortest time made between London and Edinburgh was forty-two hours and twenty-three minutes. Such a result as this will open the eyes of the war offices of the continent if not vof England. It indicates that we may presently see bodies of cyclists attached as orderlies to the staff of every general. Nor is it improbable that such a body would take the place, for many purposes, of cavalry. The same causes that lead men to sell their horses and take, bicycles will be operative in military economy. In this peaceful land we may not witness such a development of bicycling as this; but we shall be contented if It leads to the Improvement of our road3 and hostelries. She Will Live in Washington.

It is not the least painful of the thoughts connected with the enormous destruction of life and property by the forest fires in northern Minnesota, Isconsln and Mich igan, that they might have been prevented by the institution of an intelligent system of forestry with Us supervision of all tim ber cutting and of the proper disposition of its refuse and debris. Under the utterly reckless system which has been followed by lumbermen the track of the axman all through these woods is encumbered with great piles of dead and dry branches, refuse timber cuttings, underbrush and chips. They are often heaped up on either side of the railroad tracks. fcawmuis, with villages attached, are Wanted In the midst of these forests, which are chock full of these heaps of combustible mate rial. The sawmill is usually surrounded by KTeat masses of lumber, sawdust and elabs. After a long period of drouth, such as has been experienced throughout this region, all this balsamic ofral ana debris become as dry and combustible as tinder. All the grasses In the clearings and ploughs become equally as dry. A spark falling in the midst of these endless ridges snd mountains of inflammable material will create a conflagration. A high wind will convert It into & resistless tornado of fire which will sweep everything before, it. Thera Is nothing new In the terrible results as witnessed at Hinckley. Sandstone? Shell Lake and a multitude of other places. The history of these woods is full of tragical testimony to the awful destructlveness of these forest fires. Everyons; of mature age will remember the horrible catastrophe which engulfed the Wisconsin town of Peshtigo in 1871. when 2.000 men. women and children were consumed In one of these terrible tempests of fire or were, drowned in their attempts to escape by Jumping into the neighboring rivers. Every dry season has witnessed a number of similar disasters somewhere in the forest belt of Minnesota. Wisconsin and Michigan. Each of them resulted from similar conditions. Each of them was a terrible warning of the fate that overhung these forests and their inhabitants if these conditions were allowed to continue. ABOUT SCHOOL HOOKS. A Little Information an to How Such Books Are Made. The Critic To the reviewer who knows the ground and is well acquainted with the Ins and outs of school-book publishing, It Is perfectly apparent that books are made by the dozens to take the place of better books, for no reason whatever except that sonw school superintendent, thinking himself to hold & balance of power, and some publishing company desiring a handle whereby to hold him, concoct a book by their single or united efforts, a scheme to oust the other partv. If a teacher in the rank and file on a pittance of $S00 or JOT) a year, out of the abundance of her own immediate experience in her daily work, prepares notes, and some publisher nnd3 them valuable enough to publish, she Is reprimanded for It. and told that it Interferes with her work to publish a book. But if a superintendent, on $5,0.tt or more a year, scrabbles together superficial notes on what he has seen his teachers do, and out of the depths of their toil makes a text book, th royalty on whose thousands of copies shall svrell his Income, it is very laudable. The superiors he has nailed Into office pat him on tlw back and call him a genius. It doev happen once In a while that the moiet genius of a school room gets th? re war! of her own labor. Wo are reminded of a schoolbook publisher, interested in education as well as educational markets, who Fteppod into a little country school In one of the lonely districts of the Old Granite State at the right time to hear a good lesou. The Interest of the children was so Intense that he begged, leave to look over the teacher's copious notes; he found a complete book at hand, whose modest writer assured htm, that she did not believe them worth anything. The book was published and the author has never failed to receive from $1,000 to $2,000 or $3,000 a year from it since. But it was a book out of the heart, and the life, and the daily work of the maker. THE Jl'MPIXG II CAN. It Is Xovr L'sed ns an Instrument of Gambling. New York Recorder. The strict enforcement of the law against gambling in this city has closc-d up all the gambling dens,. but the hearts of the gamblers have been made glad by the arrival of the devil's, bean, which Is being sold all over the city at the modest price of 15 cents. These beans come from Mexico, and are about half an inch In length. When placed upon a level surface they Jump about in the most surprising manner, and the uncertainty of their movements has led men accustomed to take chances on the roulette wheel and faro to start layouts, which are doing a thriving business. Ths movement of the bean is due to the antics of a worm wMch Is constantly making efforts to get out cf lts prison. Tne gambling device Is arranged on a piece of paper in the form of a circle, about thre? Inches in diameter. The bean is plactd In the center of the circle ar.d the player over whose section It passes over the circle wins There was a big game at the Coleman House yesterday afternoon, and Eddie Farrell, Johnny Harkins, Sam Loper and several other well-known gamblers backed their chances for $100 a corner. The game was very exciting, ami Loper won $5,0j0 on ten successive plays. Then the bug refused to come his way, and he quit a loser of $3,000. There Is no limit to the amount that may be played for, and in the game everybody has an even chance to win or lose. To the Fire Sufferers. Atlanta Constitution.
