SENSELESS FAKE. Specimen of the Silly Canards That Are Being1 Circulated by Popocrata. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. OMAHA, Neb.. Get 28. The World-Herald, of this city, which has been posing as the personal organ cf W. J. Bryan, because the free silver agitator was once employed as Its editor. Is trying to outrival the Indianapolis Sentinel in the matter of fakes. Its free coinage of lies factory is continually at work. . Its latest canard Is a ridiculous story to the effect that it has received a confidential letter from a "prominent gold bug" who asserts that h3 is able to prove that persons having claims against Uncle Sam can have them settled quickly by signifying whether they intend to vote the Republican ticket. The silliness of this statement is so apparent that it looks as ; if the author of the fake was troubled with a case of "wheels in his head." OUTRAGE BY POPOCRATS.

In many cases it has been difficult to secure proof and the commission has been acting with great caution. Delay in investigation has been caused by the Inadequacy of numbers in the official force in the field, as the regular examinations throughout the country are taking up much of their time.

Toledo Excited Over nn Alleged Grandchild of Emperor Maxlmillian. TOLEDO, Oct 28. In the Police Court to-day the prosecution of a mysterious Spanish woman produced a sensation of a very remarkable sort It is believed that the woman, Pauline Fernandzia, is in reality a granddaughter of the late Emperor Maxlmillian, who was deposed and executed In Mexico. Singularly enough this woman is being tried on the charge of keeping an immoral house. This is her second appearance in Police Court. The first time she claimed that ghe had been robbed by her husband and that he later attempted to poison her. It was shown that she came of a rich family, fcr she exhibited a casket filled with precious genms. When asked If she was a relative of the Emperor she evaded the question, but told a story of a hurried fight from Spain to Africa and from there to Brazil. She has two children in Cuba and three in Madrid. The advent of some Spanish gentlemen to Toledo caused her to fly to the Sandwich Islands, returning again a few years ago. She is twenty-three years old. She said she was born in Madrid and that her father was killed by political cutthroats. Her godparents then took her to Africa. She has been married twice. M OCTOBER TORNADO FUNNEL-SHAPED CLOUD SWEEPS THROUGH PART OF TEXAS, Mangles People, Destroys or Damages Houses and Almost Everything In Its Path. SHERMAN, Tex., Oct. 28. This afternoon, at 5:40 o'clock, a well-defined tornado formed in Squirre creek bottom, four miles west of the village of Farmington and about one hundred miles southwest of this city. Parties who saw It at its inception say that out of a seething, tumbling mass of inky clouds a funnel-shaped column descended until it touched the earth, and then it began to move northwestward, accompanied by the usual terrific crash and roar as it tore through the bottoms, uprooting large trees and demolishing everything in Its path, which for the first mile or two was thirty or forty yards in width. The first house it is known to have struck was on the George Duke farm, one mile west of Howe and about five miles from the starting point. No one was hurt at this place. From this point until it struck the Jim Farris farm, two miles south of the city, a distance perhaps of two miles, it is known to have risen and descended several times, and what damage it did has not been ascertained. Several parties have gone to that secton, but It will be several hours before definite information can be had. At the Farris place a hut occupied by a family named Hayes, was torn to pieces and every member of the family more or less Injured, Hayes is thought to be fatally hurt The path of the storm lay at least a mile and a half east of the city, but the cloudburst which accompanied It was furious in the eastern suburbs of the city. The houses as far down as Cleveland avenue are mud bespattered, the same as was the case during the great storm of May 15. After tearing down a vacant house east of the Clem Fitch place, on the Bonham road, about a mile east of College Park suburb, the cloud rose in the air and went a distance of two miles, when it descended, but no further damage can be learned. At 8 p. m. a . ctCil -was received from the vicinity of the Farris. place for assistance from the city, asking for searching parties with lanterns. A large number responded. Great crowds are congregated all over the city anxiously awaiting their return. Physicians have gone to the assistance of the Hayes family and a score or more have placed themselves in readiness to answer summons if it is found that any number of persons have been hurt, which at this hour seems improbable, on account of the narrowness of the path and its frequent leaps into the dir, J i t Storm nt New' Orleans. .t"jEW ORLEANS," Oct. 28. A severe rain, wind and "thunderstorm which passed over the city ' to-day caused one death and did other damage. The lightning, which was very severe, struck five houses. Albert Trahlna, an occupant of one of them, was struck and Instantly killed. A large number of trees were blown down and houses were unroofed. The greater portion of the fruit sheds of the Queen & Crescent road were destroyed, as well as several electric lights and nearly all the wires were tangled so as to interrupt the tire alarm, telegraph and stop most of the electric cars. AFTER DR. ROOKER'S SCALP. Enemies of Bishop Keane "Want the Delegate's Secretary Retired. WASHINGTON, Oct 28. The opinion is freely expressed by ecclesiastics of the Catholic Church in Washington that the troubles within the church have not ended with the Bishop Kcane incident and that they will soon be renewed at Rome by the parties to the present controversy. It is fully expected by the friends of Dr. Rooker, the secretary of the D:;oal delegate, that the forces to-day which brought about Bishop Keane's retirement from the Catholic University will endeavor to secure the retirement of Dr. Booker, who is a friend of Bishop Keane and of Archbishop Ireland. This expectation has given rise to current reports that Dr. Rooker would be succeeded by a new secretary, but so far as known there is no further basis for the reports at the present time. It is supposed that" matters may be pushed to a conclusion one way or the other after Cardinal Satolli's arrival at Rome. The Cardinal is due at Genoa to-day. He will not go direct to Rome, but will stop at Milan and Perugia. The expectation is that the names of Dr. Ccnaty and others proposed for the rectorship cf the university will not be considered until the sacred congregation, now In recess, reconvenes on the second Monday of November and that the final decision will be made known early In December. Mgr. Martinelli is confining his attention wholly to the work of the delegation, which is largely of a routine character, and has carefully refrained from any participation In the differences within the church. Mr. Chiin Pont Ye. New York Tribune. Of the new diplomats the Corean minister, Mr. Chlm Pom Ye, because of his picturesque costumes, the gay silk gowns and eiueer hats, with tall transparent crown of black gauze, resembling in shape those worn by the Puritans in the last century, attracts the most attention and interest He is an indefatigable sightseer, and wherever he goes Is accompanied by his wife and attended by his suite. The Coreans are in constant evidence in public places, and seem quite Indifferent to the sensation they create, but take the admiration of the crowd good naturedly, and are cordial and responsive. Mr. Ye's predecessor, Mr. Soh, whose life as minister resident here has lasted only a few months. Is still in town, having remained until his successor, who. this being his first post, is Ignorant of diplomatic customs, presented his credentials to the President which formality took place several days ago.

Good Time on the Belmont Track, Despite a Strong AVind. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 28. John R. Gentry, the king of pacers, at the Belmont track to-day again demonstrated his superiority in the world of horses by covering a mile In 2:03. This was done In the face of adverse circumstances, being late In the afternoon when a strong east wind was blowing full down the stretch. While failing to excel his record of 2:001, Gentry succeeded In breaking his jast attempt at record-breaking at Terre Haute Oct. 20, when he went in 2:0i1. Previous to his effort of this trial W. J. Andrews, of Buffalo, his driver, gave him three warmingup miles. The first was done in 2:3414, the second in 2:17V2. the third in 2:10. In all these the animal showed up In splendid form, and much was expected of him. When the moment came the crowd, in Its eagerness, swarmed the track and breathlessly watched the horse as he tlew by at the judges' signal at a most thrilling pace. At the quarter the judges announced his time as :304, and the pent-up enthusiasm gave way to a burst of huzzas that seemed to urge Gentry on for the remainder of his t.isk. At the half the time was one minute, and at a pace that never seemed to flag as he passed the three-quarters in 1:32, and came down the stretch amid the cheers of the crowd and in a strong wind, crossing under the wire in one of the greatest attempts of his life. Both the horse and his driver were immediately surrounded by an admiring throng, while the judges presented Andrews with a gold watch. It was the general impression that had the race been run earlier in the afternoon, before the air became chill, and while the wind was light, he would have equaled or probably beaten his world's record. Two other races preceded the race of the day. Results: 2:25 Pace Wgn by Monte, b. g., in three straight heats. Natic. b. m., and Minnie C. br. m., also started. Special, free-for-all Brown Jim. br. g., won the first, second and fourth heats. Bob Rysdick, br. g., won the third . heat Pat Myber, g. g., also started. ICIng of the Half-Mile Track.

The horses attached to the President's victoria, which contained Mrs. Cleveland and a friend, became frightened this afternoon at the large iron derrick in front of the treasury building.

The occupants of the carriage were the calmest people in the crowd. After letting the horses stand for a few moments, Mr. Becket whipped them up and proceeded down F street, the same as if tb j accident had never happened. ELOPEMENT SEQUEL. Sirs.

Madame Emma Calve contributes a paper on the "Conquering Race in Music" to the November Ladies' Home Journal, in which she specially addresses students of vocal music. She tells of the training required for the operatic and the concert stage, the impersonation of character, the value of suggestions, etc., and pays this tribute to Americans: "The Americans have, it seems to me In the field of music, and especially In the field of vocal music, all of the characteristics of the conquering race. They are possessed naturally of the most exquisite voices, which, when properly cultivated and trained, are almost unrivaled; they have Indomitable energy, perseverance and pluck; they stop at nothing, are deterred by no trouble and prevented by no obstacle. Poverty, weariness, exertion, hard work none of these living specters which affright and terrify the average art worker has terrors for them. Their physique and their temperament seem made for toil and to surmount discouragement, and the success which they are daily achieving. In the field of both operatic and concert singing, Is testimony to their natural fitness for accomplishment, anel to their ability to excel. They seem. In fact, to be most lavishly fitted by nature for the parts they are assuming. To these gifts of voice, energy, pluck and persever ance they frequently add a beauty of face and grace and form and movement which the public recognizes as most important factors In the success of the singer's career. They have, too, the temperament which makes great artists and great actresses, the artistic feeling which has for its standard perfection, and which is satisfied with nothing less." Nobody Tramps His Grass. There's a front yard out In Nebraska Where roses bloom all day Where the winding Platte flow slowly down To the ocean far away; And the owner up and down the land Is riding the silver ass. And nobody tears his fences down, And nobody tramps his grass. The grass Is just as green and sweet When first it gently grew. And not a bee was e'er disturbed The livelong: summer through; No palings of the fence are gone. But all are there en manse, For nobody calls on Bill Bryan, And nobody tramps his grass. When he gets home, if e'er he does, He'll recognize each blade. And each will say, "How are you. Bill? We're still here in the shade; We've had the laziest of times. No people o'er us pass; Don't Fend McKinley crowds this way. They're awful hard on grass." There's another yard in the Buckeye State Where never a blp.de is seen, The fence is gone, the flowers pulled. By ear-er hands. I ween; And every Maxie and every flower Said, when too late, "Alas, We wish we were In Bryan's yard. Where nobody tramps the crass." T. C. Harbaugh. Movements of Steamers. NEW YORK. Oct 28.
