Commitaion Men Made Heroic Efforte and Managed Even to Get Some Profit for the Coneignora—The Summer Dulineee..

m

Many buyers were losers this week by not being here. There was a plentiful supply of horses, and in quality they averaged as high as during any week this year. When the first weekly auction began, Tuesday noon, the outlook was unpromising. Shlppers-in looked around for the familiar faces of the regular buyers, then looked into one another's. There were 260 horses to be sold. "If h# sells fifty," said one of them, glancing toward ike auctioneer, "I'm a poor guesser." However, It Is customary at these auctions to sell horses, and to sell them every week, regardless of conditions So the start was made. The gloom wore away when, later, it was seen •that a few buyers wars sprinkled in the crowd. Their number increased, but still they were few. Everybody rustled and exactly one horse • minute was trotted to the block and Sold When 200 had exchanged owners, the buying facilities seemed exhausted, and the remainder waa left to nee what could be done with them later at private sale. This was at Warman, Black, Chamberlain A Co.’s. Wednesday's sale was at the BlairBaker Horse Company's barns. This firm Saw the situation and telegraphed east and south for orders. They got permission to buy six carloads for old customers. That waa a material help and after a lively day’s work the 300 horses consigned bad been sold and there was even acme profit for tbs consignors. Had it not bean for the heroic measures of the commission men, shippers would have had a stinging reminder that the duller summer trade has begun and they would have suffered such losses as took some of them out of the market permanently last year at this time. Prices were stronger than at the same season last year, but much Weaker than during the early part of last month, the falling off since then being H5 to f». Country buyers have taken the cue and will not buy on the basis of prices heretofore prevailing. There are Po urgent orders during the summer trade, buying la indifferent and competition compara lively feeble. The absence of many regular buyers, this week, at the auctions, was accounted for by reports that receipts at the Eastern markets had been excessive for several weeks, and prices had declined there. As usual, the falling off is least on the best grades and greatest on the poorest. There Will be a good run of homes hsre again next week, according |o advices received from the country. Where they are obtained, in the face of the scarcity, continues to excite curiosity and wonder. The unexpected revival of the export trade so late In the spring no doobt increased the efforts of the buyers and swelled the receipts In recent weeks. Up to this week the Eastern spring trade, too, has been better than usual.

COUNT DI CAGLIOSTRO. (Pronounced kahl-yohs-tro.) Born June, 1746, st Palermo, Sicily. Son of Peter Balsamo and Felicia Braccnlew, both of mean extraction. Educated at the Seminary of 8t. Roche. Palermo. At thirteen he was put Into the habit of a novice and p>ac;d under an apothecary, where he learned the dm principles of chemistry and medicine. He proved Incorrigible, and deserted the convent for a dissipated life in Palermo. Later he fell in with a strolling alchemist, who spoke a variety of languages. They travsied in many places until the alchemist's death, at Malta. Balsamo went to Rome, where he married a daughter of the people, Lorenz a Fellctanl. In 177* they arrived in London. Balsamo had assumed various aliases during hie career, but from now on he waa known as the Count di Caglioatro. Cagliostro was one of the most remarkable charlatans the world has ever seen. He deeply impressed himself upon his times, and even his name conjures up marvelous Illusions. Goethe and Catherine II wrote plays about him, and Dumas pern wrote "The Memories of a Physician’’ and “The Diamond Necklace” about this famous necromancer of the old regime. Cagliostro knew all the art of prestidigitators, and posed as a wonder doctor. He knew Mesmer and his theories, and Waite says he seemed to have occult gifts to assist him In his rogueries. That Cagliostro accomplished remarkable cures is well attested, and with his telepathy and hypnotism he produced effects akin to magic. The great necromancer lived in the zenith of hyi fame In Paris, where he created the greatest furor and conjured the golden louls d'or out of the Parisians. His house still s’tands to-day like a huge sphinx. Cagliostro was the chosen friend ol Cardinal de Rohan, who loved Marie Antoinette. August 22, 1786, Cagliostro was arrested and cast into the Bastile, charged with complicity in the diamond necklace affair. He was acquitted by the courts and banished by Louis XVI. He went to England in 1786. where he predicted the fall of the Bastile, declaring It would be razed to the ground and converted Into a public promenade. He drifted to Rome In i79l. ana later was arrested by the Holy inquisition, and condemned to death aa a sorcerer and Free Mason. Pope Plus VI commuted the punishment to life imprisonment In the gloomy castle of San Leon, at Urblno. Italy, where he died, August 26, 1796. His wife died in a convent. Count Beugnot describes him aa "of medium hlght. rather atout, olive complexion, very abort neck, large eyes, broad, turned-up nose, and hair twisted up Into what was called a club.” He spoke some medley half French Znd half Italian, and made many quotations from Arabic and other languages which he did not translate.

CHAPTER XVI. WHAT HAPPENED AT THE ARCHBISHOP’S PALACE AND AFTER. Maurice, as he labored before his mirror, wondered why in the world it took him so long to dress. An hour had passed since he began his evening toilet; yet here he was, still tinkering, so to speak, over the last of a dozen cravats. The eleven others lay strewn about, hopelessly crum-pled-mute witnesses of angry fingers and Impassioned mutterlngs. Usually he could slip Into his evening clothes in less than thirty minutes. Something was wrong. But perhaps this occasion was not usual. First, the hems of his trousers were insurgent; they persisted in hlttjhing on the tops of his button shoes. Laces were substituted. Then came a desultory period, during which gold buttons were exchanged for pearl and pearl for gold, and two-button shirts for three-button. For Maurice was something of a dandy. He could not Imagine what was the matter with his neck. All the collars seemed so small. For onoe, his mishaps did not appeal to his humor. The ascent from htz shoes to his collar was as tortuous as that of the alpine Jungfrau. Ah, madam, you may smile as much as you please, but It is a terrible thing for a man to dress and at the same time think kindly of hts fellow-beings- You set aside three hours for your toilet, and devote two hours to the little curl which droops over the Up of your dainty ear; but with a man who has no curl, who knows nothing of the practice of smiles and side glances, the studied carelessness of a pose, it is a dismal, serious business up to the last momsnt. With & final glance into the mirror, and convinced that if he touched himself It would be only to disarrange the perfection which he had striven so hard to attain, Maurice went downstairs. .He had SUU an hour to while away before presenting himself at the archbishop’s palace. So he roamed about the verandas, twirled hts cane, and smoked like a captain who expects to see his men in active engagement the very next moment. This, together with the bad hour in his room, was an indication that his nerves were finely strung. He wea nervous, not because he was to see strange faces, not because his interest in the kingdom's affaire was both comic and tragic, cor because he was to present himself at the archbishop's In a peculiar capacity, that of a prisoner on parole. No, It was due to none of throe. His pulse did not stir at the prospect of meeting the true king. Diplomatic functions were every-day events with him. He had passed several years of his life in the vicinity of emperors, kings, viceroys. and presidents, and their greatness had long ago ceased to interest or even to amuse him. He was conscious only of an agitation which had already passed through the process of snalysts. He loved, he loved the impossible end the unattainabie. and it was the exhilaration of this thought that agitated him. He never would be the same again—he would be better. Neither did he regret this love Even now he could see himself back In his rooms, In Vlenna, smoking before the fire, and building castles that tumbled down. It was worth wane, if only to have something to dream about. He did not regret the love, he regretted its futil»y- How could he serve her? What couW he against all throe unseen force* which were crumbling her father’s throne? So she remembered what he had sn? ‘r t seems that I did not come to Bleiberg carelessly in the way of amusement, but to work out a part of my destiny." He arrested Us steps at the fcemtaln and listened to the low, musical plash of the water, each drop of which fell with the l^rht of a dssxling Jewel. The cold star# shone from above. They were not farther away than she. A princess, a lonely and forlorn princes*, hemmed in by the fabric of royal laws; a princess yet possessing SMKSKAssM'S.n:. ■

heart, which waa merchandise, a commodity of exchange, turned over to the highest bidder. “Royalty,” he mused, “is a political slave dealer; the slaves are those who wear the crowns.'’ Once inside the palace, he became a man of the world, polished, nonchalant, handsome, and mildly curious. Immediately after the usher announced his name, he crossed tne chamber and presented hts respects to the prelate, who, he reasoned not unwisely, expected him. The friendly greeting of the archbishop confirmed this reasoning. “I am delighted to see you, monsieur,” he said, showing his remarkably wellpreserved teeth In the smile that followed his words. "A service to her royal highness is a service to me. Amuse yourself; you will find some fine paintings In the west gallery." *T trust her royal highness Is none the worse for the fright,” Maurice replied. He also remarked (mentally) that he did not see her highness anywhere. Several Introductions followed, and he found himself chatting with the British minister ’’Carewe?’’ the Englishman repeated thoughtfully “Are you not Maurice Carewe, of the American legation In Vienna?” VYes.” "May I ask you a few questions?” "A thousand.” “A fellow-countryman of mine has mysteriously disappeared. He left Vienna for Bleiberg, saying that if nothing was heard of him within a week’s time, to make Inquiries about him. This request was left wth the British ambassador, who has just written me, adding that a personal friend of the gentleman In question was In Bleiberg, and that this friend was Maurice Carewe, attache to the American Iroatlon. Are you acquainted with Lord Fitsgerald, son of my late predecessor?” *T am indeed. I saw him in Vienna.” said Maurice; "but he said nothing to me about coming here,” which was true enough. “Is there any cause for apprehension?" “Only his request to be looked up within a certain time. The truth is, he was to have come here on a peculiar errand,” with lowered voice. “Did you ever hear of what is called ’Fitsgerald's folly?* ” "Yes; few haven’t heard of it." Maurice could never understand why he resisted the impulse to tell the whole affair. A dozen words to the man at his side, and the catastrophes, even embryonic, would be averted. "You must tell me who most of throe people are.” he said, in order to get around a disagreeable subject. ”1 am a total stranger.

And beside him —yes. the little man with glasses and a loose cravat—4s Count von Wallenstein, the minister of finance. That Is the chancellor talking to the archbishop.

Educated In Boston and at Union College, Schenectady. He first appeared as an actor In New York at seventeen, going to England In 1*1* and through Benjamin West playing at Drury Lane. He and Charles Lamb became Intimate friends, and In Paris he became friend,y with Talma, who first directed his attention to play-writing. Washington Irving was his room-mate for a while In Paris. John Howard Payne was the author of the immortal “Home Sweet Home,” among other poems, the author and adapter of more than sixty plays, and was American consul at Tunis when he died. The world knows little of him as an actor, but he was the first o.* the infant phenomena in Ametlca, and became prominent on both sides of the Atlantic. Hts first work as a dramatist was a translation for Covent Garden. His tragedy, “Brutus,” written for Charles Kean, was the best play, “Charles II” was his best comedy, and “Therese” and “Mme. **■»»« iD * 4 c-% mn 1 a «« Ua wrote ed PoetS »uu mi wH*., a, vsifibt*, fcfiiruuwu by Charles Kemble at Covent Garden, May, 1823. It was a success, its greatest feature being the song, “Home, Sweet Home,” as sung by Miss Tree, & sister of Ellen Tree. One hundred thousand copies of this song were sold in London the year of Its production. It Is not remarkable for elegance of diction, but a great sentiment is crowded into a few lines. Payne rescued the poem from his rubbish and rewrote it in London. His mind strayed back to his boyhood home, at East Hampton, Long Island. The melody is a Sicilian air, which he heard a peasant girl sing in Italy. Sir Henry Bishop adapted the music. In 1843 President Tyler appointed Payne consul to Tunis. He was recalled in 1845, but through Daniel Webster was reappointed In 1851. He died April 9, 1*51, in Tunie, at •,xty-one. He wa# burled In St. George'• cemetery. Thirty years later Mr. Corcoran, of Washington, asked permission to bring the body to America. It waa exhumed January 6. 1S83, Mr*. Worthington singing “Home, Sweet Home” at the ceremonies In Tunis. Two persons were present who had attended the funeral—Payne’s faithful servant, and a Mr. Plsanl. The stone from the Tunis grave with its errors In dates was brought to America with the body, and now reata near the grave on the crest of Oak Hill cemetery, Washington. The body reached New York, May 23, 18*3, and lay In state in the City Hail, where Gl.more'a band played “Home, Sweet Home.” It was deposited In the cemetery

I am living out of pure spite, to see that dog die before I do. Peace to 1.1s ashes—the sooner the better.” The minister turned to Maurice and

laughed.

“Eh!” said the marshal.

"I prophesied that you would speak dis-

paragingly of the dog.’’

“What a reputation!" cried the old soldier. “I dare say that you have been telling Monsieur Carewe that I am a wit; Monsieur, never attempt to be witty; they will put you down for a wit and laugh at anything you say, even when you put yourself out to speak the truth. If I possess any wit it is like young grapes— sour. You are connected in Vienna?”

“Confidentially, this play has never had the like.

And even then Europe would not dare.” Maurice replied, with impertinence afore-

“That is not a diplomatic speech.”

“It is true.”

“I like yoqr frankness.” “Let that s^j toward making amends for

saving the dog.”

“Are all American diplomates so frank?” Inquired the marshal, with an air of

feigned wonder.

“Indeed, no,” answered Maurice. ‘‘Just at present I am not in a diplomatic capacity; I need not look askance at truth. And there is no reason why we should not

always be truthful.”

“You ahe wrong. It’s truth’s infrequency which makes her so charming and refreshing. However, I thank you for your service to her highness; your services to her dog I shall try to forget." And with this the marshal moved away, shaking his head as if he had Inadvertently stumbled on an Intricate problem. Not long after, Maurice was left to his own devices. He viewed the scene, silent and curious. Conversation was carried on In low tones, and laughter was Infrequent and subdued. The women dressed without ostentation. There were no fair arms and necks. Indeed, these belong wholly to youth, and youth was not a factor at the archbishop’s receptions. Most of the men were old and bald, and only the wives of the French and British ministers were pretty or young. How different from Vienna, where youth and beauty abound! There were no music, no long tables of refreshments, no sparkling wines, no smoking-room, good stories and better fellowship. There was an absence of the flash of Jewels and color which make court life attractive. There seemed to be hanging In the air some invisible power, the forecast of a tragedy, the beginning of an unknown enfl. And yet the prelate smiled on enemies and friends alike. As Maurice observed that smile he grew perplexed. It was a smile such as he had seen on the faces of men who, about to die, felt tbe grim satisfaction of having an enemy for company. The king lay on his death bed. In ail probabilities the throne tottered; yet the archbishop smiled. The princess did not know that her father was dying; this was a secret which had not yet been divulged to her. And this was the only society she knew. Small wonder that she was sad and lonely. To

the relics of youth; what an exist-

a glittering ball-room, felt the music of a waltz mingle with the quick throbs of the heart, the pleasure of bestowing pleasure. She had never read the mute yet Intelligent admiration in a young man's eyes. And what young woman does not yearn for the honest adoration of an honest man? Poor, lonely princess indeed. For. loving the world as ne himself did. Maurice understood what was slipping past her. Every moment the roots of love were sinking deeper Into his heart and twining firmly about, as a vine to a trellis. Is there a mental telegraphy, an indefinable substance which Is affected by the close proximity of a presence, which, while we do not see. we feel? Perhaps; at any rate, Maurice suddenly became aware of that peculiar yet now familiar agitation of his nerves. Instinctively he turned his head. In the doorway which separated the chamber from the conservatory stood her royal highness. She was dressed entirely in black, which accentuated the whiteness—the Carrara marble whlteoeM—of her exquisite skin. In the dark, shining colls swept back from her brow lay the subtle snare of a red rose. There was no other color except on the full lips. She eaw Maurice, but she was so far away that the faint reflection of the roee on her cheeks waa gone before

he reached her side.

*T was afraid.” she said, lowering her eyes as she uttered the fib. “that you would not come after ail." , "It would have been impossible for me i to stay away,” he replied, his eye* i ardent. The princess looked away. "And , may 1 ask after the health of Urn dog?” j

Presented to Woman’s Association of the Union—Its History. NEW YORK, June 8.—George Washington's state coach has been presented by Augusutue Frey to the Woman’s Association of the Unton, the New York viceregent of the association being MrsTownsend. The coach, according to the history given by Mr. Frey, was used by General and Mrs. Washington on a Journey which they made from Mt. Vernon to Savannah and return. It was purchased at the Philadelphia centennial In 1876 by Benjamin Richardson, a brother of the Rlchardaon who won notoriety by building his “spite house” in Lexington avenue. this city. Richardson drove in the coach through the streets of Philadelphia. At his death it became the property of relatives, and later oassed into the possession of Mrs. Frey. The upholstery of the vehicle is the worse for cime. but otherwise it is In fairly good condition. It will be shipped to Mt. Vernon on Monday.

DEBARRING CONSUMPTIVES. New York Doctors Think Powderly’i Order May be Resented. NEW YORK. June 8.-Some of the leading physicians of this city think that tho order Issued by T. V. Powderly, com-missioner-general of Immigration, debarring Immigrants affected with tuberculosis of the lungs from entering this country may result in some countries adopting retaliatory measures. They also think that these probable measures may be of such a nature that consumptives who might be benefited by a trip abroad may be compelled to stay here and that the stand taken by this Government in dealing with Immigrants having tuberculosis. may, moreover, lead to action by States and municipalities which would practically keep consumptives at home. A Lawyer's Sudden Death. PUEBLO, Colo., June 8.—Judge W. P. Peck, an old-time attorney, of Pueblo, while addressing the county court in a lawsuit, fell to the floor, and shortly became unconscious. He was taken home, and shortly afterward died. Judge Peck was a pioneer of Colorado. He was educated at Heidelberg University.

‘ Thanks to you, monsieur; he Is getting along finely. Poor dog; he will always limp. What Is it that makes men inflict injuries on dumb creatures?” “It is the beast that is envious of the brute.” “And your hand?” with a glance sympathetic and inquiring. "My hand?” “Yes; did you not Injure It?” “O!” He laughed and held out two gloved hands for her Inspection. "That was only a scratch. In fact, I do not remember which hand It was.” “You are very modest. I should have made much of It.” ,.H e could n ot translate this; so he said; “There was nothing injured but my hat. I seem unfortunate in that direction.” She smiled, recalling the Incident in the archbishop’s garden. “I shall keep the hat, however,” he said, “as a souvenir.” “Souvenirs, monsieur,” she replied carelessly, "and old age are synonymous. You and I ought not to have any souvenirs. Have you seen the picture gallery? No? Then I shall have the pleasure of showing It to you. Monseigneur is very proud of his gallery. He has a Leonardo, a Botticelli. a Murillo, and a Rembrandt. And they really show better in artificial light, which softens the effect of time.” Half an hour was passed in the gallery. It was very pleasant to listen to her voice as she described this and that painting, and the archbishop's adventures In securing them. It did not seem possible to him that she was a princess, perhaps destined to become a queen, so free was she from the attributes of royalty, so natural and ingenuous. He caught each movement of her delicate head, each gesture of her hand, the countless inflections of her voice, the lights which burned or died away in the dark wine of her eyes. Poor devil! he mused, himself in mind; poor fool! He forgot the world, he forgot that he was a prisoner on parole, he forgot the strife between the kingdom and the duchy, he forgot everything but the wild, impossible love which filled his senses. He forgot even Prince Frederick, or Carnavia. In truth, the world was "a sorry scheme of things.” It was grotesque with inequalities. He had no right to love her; It was wrong to give in to the impulses of the heart, the natural, human Impulses. A man can beat down tbe stone walls of a fort, scale the impregnable bights of a citadel, master the earth and the seas, but he can not surmount the invisible barriers which he himself erected In the past ages—the quality of birth. Ah! if only she had been a peasant, unlettered and unknown, and free to be won! The tasks of Hercules were then but play to him! Next she led him through the aisles of potted plants In the conservatory. She was very learned. She explained the origin of each flower, Us native eoil. the time and manner of Us transportation. Perhaps she was surprised at his lack of botanical knowledge, he asked so many questions. But it was not the flowers, it was her voice, which urged him to these interrogations. They were on the point of re-entering the reception chamber, when the Jingle of a spur on the mosaic floor caused them to turn. Maurice could not control the start; he had forgotten all about Beauvais. The soldier wore the regulation full dress of the cuirassiers, white trousers, tucked Into patent leather half-boots, a gray Jacket with gold lace and decorations. red saber straps and a gray pelisse hanging from the left shoulder. A splendid soldier, Maurice grudgingly admitted. What would the colonel say? The situation was humorous rather than otherwise, and Maurice smiled. *T was looking for your highness." said

“Colonel Beauvais,” said the princess, coldly, "Monsieur Carewe, of the American legation In Vienna." She was not looking at the colonel, but Maurice was, and tbe colonel's total lack of surprise astonished him. The gaze of the two men plunged Into each others eyes like flashes of UghBhing, but that Was *T am charmed.” said the colonel, a half-ironical smile under his mustache. "Your name is not unfamiliar to me.” ■’Nor’ said Maurice, with studied politeness “No. It is connected with an exploit. Waa it not you who faced the students this afternoon and rescued her highness's dog?" "Ah!” said Maurice, In a tone which Implied that exploits were every day events with him; ‘It was but a simple thing to do. The students were like so many sheep.” The princess elevated her brows; she felt an undercurrent of something which she did not understand. Indeed, she did not like the manner in which the two men eyed each other. Her glance passed from the stalwart soldier to Hie slim, athletic form of the civilian. (TO BE CONTINUED MONDAY.) i

SOUVENIR MAILING CARDS

NEW INDIANAPOLIS SERIES JUST PUT ON SALE.

THIRTY-TWO VIEWS IN ALL

Popularity of the Cards Among European Travelers — Thie City's Public Buildings, Clubs, and Monument Exploited.

Three years ago Congress passed an act authorising the use of private mailing cards. This gave an opening for the publication of pretty souvenir postals, which enterprising firms in some cities quickly took advantage of. European citiro have had these cards for some years, and American travelers are large patrons of shops where they are for sale, and send many a pretty souvenir of this kind home to their friends while on their foreign tours. The cards usually contain views of public buildings, pretty landscapes, parks and the chief points of interest in and about the cities whose names the cards bear. These private postals are looked on as excellent advertisements for the citiro they represent. The use of the cards In Indianapolis has not been extensive, although they have not failed to attract attention. One of the reasons for limited use is probably their cost Those that were available until within the last week were what were known as the Brooklyn eerie* anl the Milwaukee series, ten of each, and so-called from the cities where they were published. Each series sold for 2b cents; single cards 5 cents, or three for a dime. The views in both series were much the samct the State House, the court house, the Monument, Tomlinson Hall and other buildings and places of which pictures have been made for years. Within the week another and larger group of these cards has been put on the market—the Cincinnati series. They are for sale In all the book stores, news stands and stationery shops. Like the former ones they are the same slse as the common postal card, but are made ot better cardboard, and the pictures ars fine photogravures. The address side is much Hl^e that of the regulation Government card. Instead of the printed stamp there is a square where the one-cent stamp may be put, and in this square the following information: “Place stamp here; 1 cent stamp for United States, Canada and Mexico; 2 cent stamp for Europe or other countries In the postal union.” The face of the card also bears the words. “Private Mailing Card.” This latest series contains thirty-two views which sell for 25 cents. With the postage this makes the cost less than 2 cents each and puts them within common reach. The Milwaukee series, though more expensive, has the views in colors— usually colored borders of flowers. The buildings shown In the latest group are the United States court house and postoffice (to be), the State House, the court house, the public library, Tomlinson hall, Union Station, Commercial Club, Columbia Club, the German House, Claypool Hotel, Imperial Hotel (old surgical Institute), Blacherne apartment building, Majestic and Scottish Rite buildings, and Lemcke building. There are three cards of the monument, the first showing it as a whole, the second the shaft by itself and the third two views of the lower part of the shaft, displaying the groups of the four sidee. Three cards containing street views show Washington street from Illinois, Meridian street south from the Monument and the East Market on market day. Seven cards give park scenes: The bridge at Garfield Park, University Park (looking toward the fountain), fountain at Military Park, north entrance Military Park, middle fountain Woodruff Place, north entrance Woodruff Place, and Morton Place. Four cards show river scenes at Broad Ripple, the boat landing and tbe Aquatic Club’s houseboat; two of the steamer Sunshine up the river and the fourth a view of both shores with a rowboat in mld-rlver. Two cards'give views of the bicycle path and canal. One card in the Milwaukee series gives a birdseye view of the city, taken from near the monument, and another a different view of University Park. The pictures are all excellent and the printer’s work well done. In one corner of the back of each card appear the words: “Greetings from Indianapolis, Ind.” NEW AMALGAMATED PLAN.
