I'lre l* the Wholesale Part of Louisville Consumes $ 1.*10,4)00 Worth of Millinery. 1 ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., Nov. 7.-The Hotel San Marco, one of the finest and most commodious hotel properties in this city, was burned to the ground this morning, ertailing a loss of about $250,000, with less than insurance.

He Immediately fired a pistol and notified Edward Mcßride, who has charge of the property, and who lives in the hotel. Marshal High and Officer Benet Were soon on the scene, and, after firing their pistols, an alarm was sounded. It •was discovered that the incendiaries had cut the fire-bell rope, and steam whistles had to be resorted to. Those who gathered at the first call did not w r uit for the engines and hose, but attached the hotel hose to the well on the grounds and commenced the fight. One engine reached the scene, but Its work was delayed, owing presumably to the “firebugs” having cut holes in the suction pipes which supply water from the hydrant, and in serewing up the couplings so tight that time was lost in loosening .them. The flames spread from woodshed bnd boiler room to the kitchen, then to the dining room and theater. These structures were three stories high, and to The west of, but connecting with, the main building, which was six stories high, with towers in the center and on each wing. Hundreds of men assisted in removing the furniture from the main floor, and a large quantity was taken out, the main floor being almost entirely bare before the fire drove the workers away. In a few hours the structure was reduced to embers. The owner of the San Marco was William Meale, a real-estate dealer in Boston, and ■was leased to McDowell & Palmer, and would have been opened next month. Fearing further incendiarism, thoke in charge of the Hotel Ponce’ De Leon have ordered steam up constantly In order to furnish water pressure at a moment's notice.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 7.—A fire of considerable proportions broke out at midnight to-night on Main street, between Sixth and Seventh, in the wholesale business district. The flames originated on the top floor of the four-story building occupied by Bareford & Lawson, wholesale millinery dealers, and quickly spread to the four-story building on the west occupied by Benjamin S. Weller, wholesale dealer in boots and shoes. The fire was an extremely t> nacious one. The flames were fed by a large quantity of wax used in making wax flowers, and despite the fact that tons of water were thrown into both buildings, continued to blaze furiously for an hour.

DR.PONDWASHAMMERED * GREAT ’FRISCO CROWD SAW’ ALLAMERICA DEFEAT BALTIMORE. . Lange Got n Bouquet and Made a TwoBase Hit—Choynaki Wants to Meet Goddard Once More. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7.—The aggregation of star ball players from the East made Its first appearance in California to-day at Recreation Park, and the AU-Americans played all around the men from Baltimore. The day was an ideal one, and the size of the crowd was only restricted by the limits of the ground. Every seat in the grand stand and In the bleachers was taken, and a fringe of humanity surrounded the field, greatly interfering with the fielding of the players and partly responsible for the large score. The grounds, too, were very rough having been used for football when soft and slushy. Dr. Pond, for the Baltimores, did not prove much of a puzzle for the nine selected from the cream of the National League. They batted him hard and often, and after the sixth inning the crowd set up a continuous howl for Joe Corbett, but the latter did not respond. All the old California favorites, namely, Lange, Reitz, Clark and Nash, received a warm welcome from the twelve thousand or more spectators. “Bill”#Lange was fairly smothered with floral tributes, the most attractive of which was a large shield of white roses with the words, “Little Eva,” in carnations. Lange responded by lining out the first ball pitched against the center-field fence for two bags. The fielding of the All-Americans was clean and snappy. The only feature of interest in the playing of the Baltimores was Jennings’s quick and clean fielding. He made a remarkable double play, catching a straight liner by jumping in the air and throwing a runner out at first. Donahue’s work behind the bat for Baltimore was very slow.

Nixon, members of a local cycling organization, to-day left this city mounted on a tandem for a 15,000mile ride. They were escorted as far as Wilmington by about 3CO local riders. The men ride as the result of a wager that they cannot complete the distance inside of one year, and on their return show SI,OOO, the start to be made without any money and with only the necessary clothing that can be carried in a traveling case. They are required to visit the leading Southern cities and to strike westward and to be in Indianapolis at the national L. A. W’. meet next year. The men expect to earn the SI,OOO by selling bike sundries. The Coming League Meeting. WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.—President Nick Young, who leaves to-morrow to attend the annual meeting of the National League In Philadelphia, made the following statement to-night with reference to the constituency of the League next year: "Every fall brings the usual rumors of the dissolution of the partnership of twelve and the return to the old organizations of eight clubs after the fashion of the old eight-club League and the American Association. The conference of 1891 that brought about the twelve-club League called for a compact of ten years, and there is no possible chance of reorganizing the major league till the expiration of that compact. Besides, the League is incorporated as a regular partnership, and it would be a legal impossibility to break this compact. Even at the expiration of the twelve-dub agreement the major league will, in my opinion, be reorganized along the same lines and with the same number of clubs. Unless there is a radical change in the twelve-club circuit because of the tailing off In attendance in one or more cities the next reorganization, which will be brought about in 1901. will consist of twelve clubs, with possibly a change of no more than one city in the circuit. Rumors of a shift of the Cleveland franchise are merely the dreams of some of the young men of the press in search of baseball news in the otf season. ”1 look for some big deals at this year’s meeting. Some of the clubs in the first division will xigure In trades, though few. if any, purchases outright will be made. The rules will, of course, be touched on, but I feel safe in predicting that not one radical change will be made.” President Young expressed himself in favor of the abolition of the Temple cup games and the substitution of a money prize for the clubs finishing one, two, three.
Choynskl Will Fight Anyone. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 7.—Joe Choynski, the popular California heavy weight, has arrived in San Francisco. He announces that he is In perfect condition and ready to fight Jeffries at any time. The meeting will probably come off on Nov. 15. He was asked about the prospect of a meeting between Jackson and himself. “I am ready to mek Jackson,” he said, "as soon as my present engagement Is over. I have never shirked any one and stand ready to-day to fight any man in the business. While Choynski is here to meet Jeffries, it is the opinion of sporting men that he is eager for another match with Goddard. At all events it is likely that Joe will have as many engagements on his hands before he leaves San Francisco as he can take care of. A Bicycle Record Broken. BROCTON, Mass., Nov. 6.—Frank B. German, of this city, broke the American twenty-four-hour bike road record by riding 342 miles between 4 p. m. Friday and the same hour to-day. The former record, 310 miles, was held by Davis, of Cleveland. German also broke Davis's twelve-hour record of 17tj miles by riding 191 miles In the same time. The course was from this city to Franklin Park. Boston, a round distance of fifty-four miles. German made the triii up and back six times, and finished with a spurt ride to Stoughton. He finished 342 miles just seven minutes before the expiration of the twenty-four hours, and. being near his home, stopped rather than ride out the even hour. A number of local bicyclists on tandems and single wheels paced German. Ynle Expects to Beat Hurinrd. NEW HAVEN. Conn., Nov. 7.—The backers of Yale's eleven feel confident to-nWclit that the Sons of Ell will make a satisfactory showing in the big games with Harvard next Saturday and with Princeton a week later. The Chicago A. A. team spent the day resting, and will remain here until Tuesday. It is said the team has canceled the arrangements practically concluded to play the Brown University eleven at Chicago on Thanksgiving day. The reason given was the poor showing of Brown in the past two weeks, and the Chicago team fed that Brown would not be able to give them a sufficiently hard game to be interesting. An effort will be made to till the date with the Elizabeth. N. J., eleven or the Jersey Club of Jersey City. Championship Handball Game. CHICAGO, Nov. 7.—Handball Champion Carney and Fireman Keegan, of this city, played the first seven games of their series for the world’s championship to-day.

Spanish Papers Deny Action Against Weyler Is Taken Because of American It cm oust ranee. ♦ NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, United States consul general at Havana, arrived in this city to-night on his way to his post in Cuba. He will remain here until Wednesday, w r hen he will sail on the steamship Seguranca for Havana. He had come from Washington, where he had a long consultation with the President and also with Secretary Sherman, of the State Department. “Did you receive any specific instructions from the President or from Secretary Sherman as to your relations with General Blanco, the new governor general of Cuba?” he was asked. “No general instructions,” replied Gen. eral Lee. “I am going to protect the lives and property of Americans in Cuba, to look after the commercial interests of Americans and after the rights of Americans and to—keep In the middle of the road.” In regard to the trial of the crew of the Competitor, he simply said: “They were tried once and sentenced to be shot; then a flaw in the trial was discovered and now they are being retried. As to the verdict, nobody can tell.” POLITICAL AMNESTY. Spanish Cabinet Approves of the Policy for Cuba and the Philippines. MADRID, Nov. 7.—The Cabinet Council has approved the proposal of political amresty for Cuba and the Philippines. The government denies that the action to be taken with regard to the remarks made ex-Governor General Weyler to the deputation that waited on him shortly before he left Havana is the result of any suggestion on the subject received from Washington. No communication has been received from the American government. on that matter. El Liberal, referring to "mysterious threats made in New York by people interested in separatist affairs” and to the “revelation of gigantic immoral speculation,” says: “No doubt, anxiety has been greatly increased during the last twen-ty-four hours. It is known that the Cuban revolutionary committee is trying to place war bonus among filibusters, ottering ridiculous and imaginary guarantees. Tfie committee proposes, also, to stamp dollar pieces •redeemable when the Spanish troops have evacuated Cuba.’ ‘We have done everything to assure peace in Cuba, and have thereby acquired the good will of Europe and international right. Therefore we should not tolerate ortensive interference; and we can meet tranquilly any complications arising out of such interference. We do not believe the United states government will associate itself with those adventurers, but, even should this happen, we must not deviate from the line of conduct that honor and duty dictate.” The government has received a cable mes-s-age from the autonomist leaders in Cuba, accepting, on behalf of the party, the appointments tendered representative autonomists on the nomination of Marshal Blanco, among them the provincial governorships, which have been assigned as follows: Province of Havana, Senor Jose Bruzon; Pinar del Rio, Senor Marcos Garcia; Puerto Principe, Senor Rafael Vasallo; Santiago de Cuba, Senor Enrique Capriles. Senor Francisco de Armas, a Reformist, has been appointed governor of Matanzas province. The senators and deputies of the old Span-ish-Cuban party met yesterday and renewed their protest against any scheme of home rule for Cuba. According to a cable message from Havana, the court-martial to-morrow will try only such members of the crew of the Competitor as are American citizens.
AVHY SPAIN HATES IS. Explanation from* British Consul at Chicago. Lately of Barcelona. NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—Capt. William W T yndham, who has been transferred as British consul at Chicago, after three years' service in a similar capacity at Barcelona, Spain, was a passenger on the La Bretagne, which arrived from Havre to-day. After spending a week with relatives in Philadelphia he will leave for his new post at Chicago. He said: "The feeling in Spain against the United States is one of great bitterness. There have been no demonstrations in Barcelona or thereabouts within the last year against the United States, and the Spanish government Is taking care that there shall be none. The bitterness, however, is very marked, particularly in Barcelona. Before the Cuban war, Barcelona, one of the great manufacturing centers of Spain, prospered chiefly in its trade with Cuba and Manilla. The war in Cuba and the Philippine islands has cut off this trade. Barcelona has lost the best and most lucrative market she enjoyed. Only one-third of the men hitherto t mployed in her factories are now working, and they on reduced time. All over the manufacturing centers of Spain there is similar commercial prostration. The Spanish cannot understand why the United States, a friendly nation, should allow so many filibustering expeditions to get away Rifely to Cuba. That fact makes them additionally bitter. When 1 left Spain there were no symptoms of anger against the late minister of the United States to that country, Hannis Taylor. The Spanish were too much absorbed in what General Woodford, your new minister, might say ami do. I heard no talk there of war with the United States. Spain has not the money to wage a war with you. As for the reported prospective uprising of the Carlists, f do not think there is much danger of that now. The Carlists would not stand much of a chance of gain as things are now governed in Spain.” Havana’i* Floating Dry Dock. HAVANA, Nov. 7.—The long expected floating dry dock, built in England and spacious enough to accommodate large Ironclads. arrived here to-day. It crossed the Atlantic without damage.

A ledge extending for many miles, and the quartz running SIOO to the ton, has been discovered, and the people in that part of the State are wild with excitement. The little town of Utica has been almost deserted by the male inhabitants, who have staked out the whole surrounding country. It is reported that from any part of the great ledge rock can be broken that runs SIOO and more to the ton. Some of the excited prospectors have gone to work with plows and scrapers to uncover the vein. Another report of the discovery of a rich placer deposit was brought to-day from Elk City, Idaho, where Judge Lindsay and other Butte parties have been interested in mining.

Nearly all of the 3CO men and women already booked for the passage visited the steamer during the hours it was open for inspection, besides a large number of invited guests. Among the latter were H. A. Herbert, former secretary of the navy; Gen. H. V. Boynton, E. V. Camack of Philadelphia, the venerable ex-secretary of Nicholas Biddle; C. P. Huntington and D. O. Mills, and a delegation of seventy-five business men and bankers of Philadelphia, who are interested in the project of sending out the (Columbia.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7.—The whaling bark John N. Winthrop, Captain Macombe, arived to-day from Bering sea. She reports a catch of seven whales which yielded 10,300 pounds of bone and 900 barrels of oil. Early in July the Winthrop spoke the whaler Gayhead and for the first time heard of the Klondike gold discoveries. The crew became greatly excited and three of the sailors, J. A. Krueger, O. W. Digman and H. J. Jones, formed a plan to destroy the vessel and make their way to the Alaskan coast, with a view of ultimately reaching the gold tiilds. The men stole tur and trupentine from the ship’s stores and with otner inflammable material started a fire in the forehold. Fortunately the flames were extinguished before much damage was done. The three conspirators were at once placed in irons. Digman made a written confession, stating that Krueger was the originator of the plot and that he desired to blow up the bark with powder taken from the whaling bombs. During the rest of the voyage Krueger was kept in ciose confinement, but Digman and Jones v ere a lowed partial freedom. The Winthrop brought no news of the ice-bound whaiing fleet.
M’LEANGIVES iT UP. Democrats Still Hope an Anti-Hanna Man May Be Elected Senator. CINCINNATI, Nov. 7—John R. McLean and party left to-night for Washington. Mr. McLean has been considered the Democratic candidate for senator, and his departure is regarded as an indication that he concedes the Legislature to the Republicans, notwithstanding the numerous notices of contest. Before his departure Mr. McLean held a conference with Chairman McConville and other Democratic leaders. There is nothing known as to the probable policy of the Democrats as a minority in the Legislature, but it is believed they will join the anti-Hanna Republicans in bringing out anew man for senator. The question has been raised as to whether seventythree votes are necessary to elect a senator, that number being a majority of all. If a majority of a quorum only is necessary some might be sick or absent, as that would be less embarrassing than to be present and vote against the caucus nominee. The point has also been raised as to the succession to the governorship. If Governor Bushnell should be elected senator by a fusion the lieutenant governor, A. W. Jones, would become the chief executive. As the state Senate is Democratic by 19 to 17, it is held that a Democratic senator would succeed Jones and he in line for the governorship. Among the nineteen conceded to the Democrats in the Senate is Senator Voight. of Cincinnati, a fusion Republican, who holds the balance of power in that body, and he is noncommital. * No Fnrther Contests Likely. COLUMBUS, 0., Nov. 7.—There have been no developments in the legislative situation to-day. the Democrats having apparently abandoned all further effort to contest the e’ection of Republican representatives in close counties. The Republican majority of five on joint ballot in the General Assembly will probably not be changed, unless the fusionist members in Cincinnati vote with the Republicans. Cardinal Gibbons on Politicians. BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 7.—At the cathedral to-day Cardinal Gibbons preached a sermon In which he dwelt on the responsibilities of muse elected to public office and the duties of the citizens to those elected. The cardinal took for his text: “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God’s.” He said in part: “The state is wtiat we ourselves make it. It is our creation, for the state is made up of units of citizens. The destiny of the state under God is in our hands. The citizen has a perfect right to criticise the official conduct of the public functionaries. A dispassionate judgment passed on the public and official acts of those in authority serves a wise and useful purpose. It reminds them that they are not the masters, hut the servants of their constituents.” GREAT MURDER TRIAL. (Concltitled from Flrut Page.) M. H. Scully, bath attendant 100 James C. Flood, elevator man 100 F. O. SoheUenberg, superintendent.... 20 Henry Heidelbach, attendant 20 Joseph Kavanagh attendant 20 Herman Speck, attendant * 20 Max Zorn, night clerk 20 Total SI,OOO The division was proportioned In this wise for these reasons: Mr. Cowan was the first one with any knowledge of William Guldensuppe’s disappearance to notify a newspaper. He heard, while taking a bath on Sunday afternoon, June 27, the attendants of the Murray-hill establishment talking of the Journal description of the marks for identification upon the portions of the mutilated trunk. He heard them speak, also, of the correspondence of these marks with the physical peculiarities of their comrade Gudensuppe. He thought over the coincidences until Monday night before he felt himself justified in telephoning to his favorite newspaper to send a reporter to see him. This was at 11 p. m., and when the reporter reached Mr. Cowan's place, the Pallas Hotel, he learned that an attendant at the Murray-hill baths, generally known as “Willem,” had been missing since early Friday morning. The reporter had l*en a semi-weekly customer of these baths for
two years, and he remembered at once that “Wil'em,” who was his favorite attendant, had a large hit of tattooing on his chest, just where the flesh of the torso at the morgue bad been cut away. He became interested at once, and after Mr. Cowan had told him of ‘ Willem's” friendship with the midwife. Mrs. Nack, and of the quarrel “Willem” had forced in February upon another boarder, he went at once to the baths. There he found every one connected with the place, t’rom the night clerk to the floor boys, talking as fast as their tongues could wag on the question of their friend's identity with the remains at the morgue. The Journal reporter first learned all they had to tell and then visited Mrs. Nack. He came back at daylight and took Gartner, Steubling, Scully and Flood to the morgue, where they made the positive identification. Zorn. Schellonberg. Heidelbach. Kavanagh and Speck went to the morgue later in the day and corroborated the early morning identification. Just as soon as it became a matter of police record that the mutilated remains were those of Guldensuppe the Journal gave the promised reward. The division w r as easily made, for it is patent that the man who first set moving the careful investigation that solved the mystery should have the greatest share. That being set at SSOO. the amount of SIOO was fixed for each of the four men w r ho made the first identification. and S2O apiece for the five who later corroborated them. ANOTHER FRENCHDUEL EDITOR SERVAMXES “PINKS” THEATRICAL MANAGER CARRE. Burial of the Minister of NVar at Rio June* o Who Was Assassinated Last Week—Foreign News. PARIS, Nov. 7.—A duel was fought to-day between Albert Carre, manager of the Theater du Vaudeville, and M. Servanines, editor of the Paris. The former received a scratch on the arm. The encounter grew out of an article published in the Paris containing allusions to the private affairs of M. Carre, which he resented as insulting. Rio Janeiro Republican Mobbed. RIO JANEIRO, Nov. 7.—Last night a large mob broke into and looted the offices of the Republican. Although the plan was generally known, the police were powerless to prevent the attack. The Republican had made itself particularly obnoxious by its criticisms on government policy in connection with the recent campaign against the fanatics and by its attacks on President Moraes and Gen. Marcado Bittencourt. the minister of war, who was fatally stabbed during the disturbance that followed the attempt on the President’s life last Friday afternoon. The correspondent of the London Times, cabling further particulars as to developments here since the attack on President Moraes and the killing of General Bittencourt last Friday, says: “The city is quiet and orderly to-day (Sunday.)

Philadelphia Record. Massage comes from the Greek word “masso," 1 knead. In fact, the masser kneads the muscles with his or her hands to render the articulations more supple and to excite the vitality of the skin. This custom was known to the ancients, and was always practiced after the bath in Rome. Until a few years back, however, of modern nations, only Turkey and Russia imitated the ancients in their baths and the massage following them. Russians are not particularly clean as a rule, but the very poorest and dirtiest take an occasional vapor bath ala Romaine with massage. Roman baths and massage are not yet enough known in this country amongst the poorer portion of the population, although the moral benefit, as well as the physical, is a great one. Fortunately, however, as we rise in social scale, we see a bathroom in every modern house, however humble it may otherwise be. It is, therefore, quite possible that every bath should be followed by a quick friction with brush or glove, which will act on the skin almost as well as massage. Strength, vigor, health and beauty will be gained by it. After the friction rub the w'hole body once more with a piece of liannel dipped in aromatic vinegar or pure cologne. Indeed, when the bath is not available, these frictions alone will be found most efficacious. Light gymnastics should follow when out-of-door exercise cannot be taken. Friction, however, is beneficial to all—the young and old alike—and is, perhaps, needed more by the aged than the young, massage being one of the few things known which can be trusted to relieve rheumatic pains. Shut Off Ills Vocal (fiord*. CHICAGO. Nov. 7.—William Kastner. a cook, was held up by two footpads when passing under the Lake-street elevated railroad structure in Market street this evening. The robbers searched Kastner's pockets. but finding nothing* of value there, they determined to rob him of his speech. One of them placed a revolver close to the victim’s throat and fired. The bullet cut through the vocal chords and completely destroyed Kastner’s power of speech. The robbers escape*.
STORIES OF DR. EVANS * . FAMOUS AMERICAN DENTIST WHO HAS MADE A FORTUNE IN PARIS. He Introduced Napoleon to Eugenie— Valuable Collection of Precious Gifts from Royalty. New' York Press. Dr. Thomas W. Evans, who has tinkered the teeth of all European loyalty, save only Queen Victoria, and purposes leaving the bulk of his large fortune for the founding of dental colleges in Philadelphia and elsewhere. went to Paris a full half century ago when he was only twenty-five. He had been practicing his profession a year or two in Lancaster, Pa., at that time, and although he had his own ambitions even then, had begun to fear that he was doomed to spend a lifetime pulling, boring and filling the teeth of farmers and villagers. One day he was introduced to the famous French demist Dr. Dubouche, then on a visit to the United States, and it was not long before the two became firm friends. A few days before Dr. Dubouche was to sail for France a number of his acquaintances called to see him, among them being Evans and two or three other dentists. After a while the conversation drifted to dentistry in France, when Dr, Dubouche said suddenly: “Gentlemen, I'm looking for a bright young Yankee dentist to take back to France with me. There is a fine opening for a good young fellow there, and if any of you know of such a man I wish you would tell me his name.” Now Evans had long been waiting for fortune’s messenger to knock at his door, though he had never before suspected Dubouche of being the messenger. But this remark identified him at once in Evans’s mind, and, quick as a flash, he replied: “There’s a young fellow named Evans w’ho would like to go to Paris, and if he meets your ideas just tell him he’s accepted and he will begin packing up right now.” “All right, Evans,” said the Frenchman, “you’re exactly the chap I want,” and the two closed the bargain then and thee in spite of the protests of Evans’s friends, who declared they couldn't see how any American could think of living a lifetime in Paris. Dr. Dubouche became more and more attached to the young American doctor as the two became better acquainted, and it wits not long after the vessel on which they were passengers touched the other side of the water before he began to bring the Yankee dentist to the front by introducing him to the swells and royalties of Europe, foremost among them being the then prince-President of the French republic, who afterward ruled as Napoleon 111. Some who have known that Dr. Dubouche introduced Evans to Napoleon have declared that Evans, at least indirectly, owed all his advancement to the French doctor, but this is only partially true. Evans’s father had performed many services for Jerome Bonaparte when he was in America, and, therefore, Napoleon 111 considered himself under a sort of family obligation to the young American.
DOCTOR AS A MATCHMAKER. Os course Dr. Evans knew Eugenie, and all the world has heard how he helped the Empress to get away from Paris when that city was besieged by the Prussians, but there are few who remember that he was acquainted with her before her marriage. Rut he was and there Is a possibility that she would never have been Empress of the French but for this circumstance. Eugenie was the Spanish Countess Montijo, and her mother was first a patient and then a strong friend of the doctor. When she sent her daughter to school in Paris she begged as a favor that the girl might spend her fete days at his house. Both mother and daughter were his guests w r hen it was announced that the prince-President was about to give a grand ball. The girl was decidedly anxious to be present, but her mother, being in moderate circumstances only, had received no invitation. The doctor had an invitation, however, and it was on his arm that the young lady leaned when she entered the ballroom where she was to make the most brilliant conquest of many Parisian seasons. It was Dr. Evans, too. who formally presented the Spanish beauty to the prince-President, and, no doubt, he furthered the acquaintance thus begun by every means in his power. Napoleon continued to be just as friendly with Evans after wanning Imperial honors as when prince-President. • and it was through the doctor’s investments in real estate thus made possible that he gained much of his immense wealth. It was about this time that Baron Haussmann practically rebuilt Paris. The Emperor was sure of the city’s future and Evans concurred heartily in the imperial views. Evans was then, as now, a man of excellent taste, and at the Emperor’s request gave much advice regarding the laying out of the improvements of the Bois de Boulogne. Often the two would go through the then unimproved grounds, with a landscape gardener and an attendant with an armful of sticks sharpened at one end. Whenever they found a plot in the vicinity of the park that seemed specially desirable it would be staked off and the party would pass on. Eventually Evans secured titles to many of these plots, and his profits, when the rise in value came, were enormous. The doctor’s case of watches, decorations, loving cups, rare china and other bric-a-brac presented to him by princes and potentates is famous the world over. If he chose he could outshine most members of royal houses, and women of high degree even, in display of decorations, but he rarely wears any of his orders. GIFT FROM A DUCHESS. The gem of the entire collection was given to him by the Duchess of Baden. Dr. Evans, having been called to attend the duke, either by accident or design, displayed his watch, which was old and plain, in the sight of the duchess. She expressed surprise that he should carry so uncomely a timepiece, and a few days later sent one to him that fairly glowed with precious stones and bore the crest of the donor. Being really altogether too fine for everyday use, the doctor put it in the case along with his other treasures, and continued to wear the old one. A few weeks later he was again called to attend the duke, and again he displayed his old watch in the sight of the duchess. The duchess exclaimed: “Why, doctor,” she said, “why aren’t you wearing the watch I sent you?” “Oh,” he replied, “it’s too elegant a thing for me to wear. I might knock it against the chair during an operation and loosen some of the stones, or break it in some way.” A few days later Dr. Evans received a package containing another watch from the duchess, and with her crest engraved on the back also, but of much less elaborate pattern and decoration. He has carried this second watch most of the time ever since. Dr. Evans once assured Dr. William W Walker, of this city, that it was his purpose to bequeath his treasure case and all its contents to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. So much has been written about Dr Evans's suavity and his friendship with the bigwigs of Europe that many have come to regard him as nothing more nor less than a bogus courtier, and consequently to underrate him as a man. But this view is erroneous. Outside of his social and business life the doctor has performed many patriotic and philanthropic services for both his native and adopted lands. When the Crimean war was raging he was sent by the Emperor, at his own request, to study the sanitary condition of European camps and hospitals, and he was so impressed with the wretchedness and misery he then witnessed that on his return to Paris he made successful efforts to Interest the nations of the civilized world in measures of reform. While the American civil w r ar was in progress he came to this country and joined in the sanitary commission’s work, his experience being invaluable in the organization of its ambulance service, and his reports from the front, still on file at Washington, were considered of the highest importance.

Contracted u Severe Cold During the Lust Week of the Ohio CaiupuiKn, and Pneumonia Followed. CLEVELAND, 0., Nov. 7.—The physicians in attendance on Major Benjamin Butterworth, commissioner of patents, who is ill with pneumonia at the Hollenden Hotel, give but little encouragement of his recovery. It was stated at 10 o'clock this evening that he would not die during the night, but the physicians could not tell yet whether he would get well. Mr. Butterworth's wife an 1 daughter, who were summoned from Cincinnati, are at his bedside. Mr. Butterworth took cold during his work in the recent Ohio campaign and pneumonia developed at once. Benjamin Butterworth was born in Warren county, Ohio. Oct. 22, JBS9. of Quaker parents. His earliest recollections ward the efforts of his father in behalf of tho slaves of the South. His father had originally been a slaveholder himself, but. becoming convinced that property in human beings was wrong, freed his slaves and devoted much of his life to the work of emancipation. For years there was a standing reward in Kentucky of $2,000 for the head of Mr. Butterworth’s father. Benjamin. Butterworth was educated for a lawyer, studying at the Ohio University at Athens. In the course of time he went to Cincinnati, and in 1861 was admitted to the bar. In 1870 he was United States district attorney. Afterward he was elected to the State Senale, and then to Congress. He was the author, while In Congress, of several laws for the relief of Union soldiers. President Arthur appointed him one of the Northern Pacific Railroad commissioner#, but before he had served in this capacity he was appointed to the position at the head of the uatent department. A Secretin e Young Man. Detroit Free Press. “I believe,” said the young man who had called upon her for the second time, “that one should keep his affairs to himself. I do not mean the little things that enter into the life of all and are In the nature of common property, but such important matters as those of the heart and of business. Success is frequently contingent upon discretion, and then there are the rights of others which should be respected.” Then the young man carefully adjusted his necktie, which had taken a degree or two of liberty, while the bright girl looked at him quizzically as she said: "I have heard that if you give a man half a chance he will tell all his secrets to a woman.” “It’s a mistake,” declared the youth. “It’s those of your sex who must have a confidant. I am at this moment suppressing a personal matter that would set a whole roomful of young women to buzzing. I loved her from the very moment 1 saw her. She filled my eye, my heart and the idea! which I had established. There •< ble stumbling block in the fact that she is immensely rich, w’hile 1 am dependent upon, a very slender income. Her father do, s nut favor my suit. I’m not certain that she does, but she has accepted several invjtations and appears interested in me. It would be a sad blow' should I fail to won her.” “Well, Alice is a good girl, but she Is not to be had for the mere asking.” "How in the w'orld did you know' it was Alice? Isn’t she delightful? I have a proposition to put some money in a little gold territory with Whackey. Then I’ll be in a position to propose to the darling creature. Meantime, I’m not saying a word to anyone.”
Led by a Child. Oh, there are happy angels That go on missions sweet: They have no wings to bear them— Just little human feet. When I had grown aweary. And all m.v faith was dim. 'Twas one of them that led me And brought i.ie back to Him. ? A child's hand ’twas that bridged it; A child’s soft, rosy palm , Held both our souls united. And life grew sweet and calm. When sorrows closely gathered And heart and head were bowed, The blue eves of a baby Made rifts in pain's dark cloud. —Philadelphia Time* NATIONAL Hfjl Tube Works Wrought-iren Pipe for Gas, Steam and Water.
