An interesting event, not on the official program of world's fair attractions, took j lace today, when Commissioner St. Clair, of West Virginia, attempted to enter the grounds without displaying h: commissioner's badge. The colonel had left his badge at home and wanted to pass through the gates on his personal card alone. The gateman demurred somewhat and finally told the commissioner to step aside until the crowd of passengers who had just come in. on the tnln had entered. After waiting a minute or two, the southern commissioner stepped to another pate and was again told to wait. He did so, and becoming tired, tried a third gate. By this time he "was a little out of humor, and told the gateman he Was tired of waiting and if he did not intend to let him in to say so, and he would go and buy a ticket. "I have business in the grounds and I'm going In," remarked the colonel in a rather angry tone. The gateman then let him through, with a remark which no one but the West Virginian seems to have heard. Whatever it was. It inCreased his ire and he informed the gateman that he did not propose to take any impudence, and if he heard any more of It, the gateman would lose his job. More angry words followed on both sides, when a Columbian guard came up and demanded to know whit the row was about. The wrathful commissioner abruptly informed the guard it was none of his damned business. A crowd had gathered by this time and two more Columbian guards came up. One of the new arrivals seeing there was a prospect of a fight, took hold of Col. St. Clair's arm and was instantly knocked down by the latter. With this the gateman and the two remaining guards went at the colonel hammer and tongs, and for the next live minutes they were so badly mixed up that it was impossible to distinguish one from the other. The crowd cheered and the distinguished member from West Virginia and the gateman and guards clawed and pulled and iounded and scratched each other in a decidedly vigorous manner. At length some more guards arrived, and with a good deal of effort they stopped the fight. The colonel with his face and shirt front covered with Mood, went to the office of President Hlginbotham and washed, while his antagonists, equally gory, were conducted to the service building for a similar purpose. After he had washed Col. St Clair said the guards and gateman all know him. "I left my badge at home last week and It has not been sent to me yet." he said. "Those gatemen have been letting me in every day since on my card and I could see no reason why they should stop me today. If the gateman had told me frankly that he could not let me in without the badge I would have bought a ticket. But he became Impudent, and I told him if he did not behave himself I would have him discharged. With that he struck me and then the fight became general." Home and Chicken. The entries in the horse show are closed. The list Is a big one, though including only a few famous racers. Most of the exhibitors will show draught, coach, saddle and driving horses. Already the first room provided has been entirely spoken for. Acres of new sheds are going up, and when the display opens Aug. 15. there will be a confusing wilderness of barns for the amazement of the hosts of farmers. Incubation in all its varied phases and possibilities Is receiving increasing attention. With its prominence in the electrical building, with lightning as the incubating power, there is also an entire building devoted to this department. Around the sides are the artirteal hens and down the center are sacks of patent food for chickens. A competitive race of the hatchers is being planned as a drawing card for the crowds. Eggs will be placed in the hatchers at exactly the same moment, the heat applied and the contest will be on. Pools will be sold, the states now showing the never-fall favorites against the field, with invincible and triple expansion as good seconds. Aug. 4 has been set apart as "Scotland's day" at the fair. The Scottish assembly looks for an attendance of fully äö.000 sons and daughters of "Auld Scotia" at this celebration in the world's fair. Another conference between the foreign commissioners, the council of administration and Collector Clark was held at the fair grounds today to prepare plans for the sale of duplicates of the foreign exhibits in the world's fair buildings. There is a movement on foot among ome of the foreign exhibitors to establish a warehouse outside the grounds for the sale of the duplicates, they have brought along. Here individual pieces can be sold and removed, which could rot be done in the special bonded warehouse on the grounds. Some of the exhibitors have already started stores on Cottage tirove-ave., where they sell duplicates of the goods they exhibit inside the grounds. As the duty has been paid on all such duplicates, neither the government nor the exposition authorities can Interfere if so disposed. - ' Kdllorlal Lnjr at the Fair.

The parade of the commercial travelers in honor of the world's fair was a creditable one. It is estimated that 5,000 of them participated. The procession proper of the travelers was led by the Ohio contingent, several hundred strong, marching four abreast and most of them carrying red and white umbrellas. A gorgeous tally-ho coach loaded to the guards with lumber salesmen, each carrying a banner with the strange device of the ho hoos the mystic black cat came next, followed by countless ho hoos on foot and in carriages. Kach of the states was represented in the parade, many displaying characteristic watchwords. On the Montana guidon was the motto "Free Silver." Illinois closed the line with a delegation of 500. Tomorrow the commercial men will visit the fair and will gather at 11 o'clock in the festival hall, where they will be addressed by W. F. Mitchell of Iowa, John C. Fenimore of Ohio and Mayor Harrison.

A. AWFIL SlICtDE. W. II. Irving- Fills III Month vtlth Powder and Illovr III Head Oft. CHICAGO. July 27. Tired of life, W. II. Irving of Charles-st., Winthrop Beach, Mass., committed suicide some time last night or early this morning ! on the lake shore. The method used was horrible and most revolting. A partly-filled can of powder by his side and the torn and mangled face Indicated that the suicide had filled his mouth with powder and then probably with a lighted match had caused it to explode. A hasty search of the body told the remainder. In the pocket of the coat was found a note-book. In which was this information: "My name is V. H. Irving of Charlesst.. Winthrop Beach, Mass. In case of accident or serious illness, n tify Mrs. W. I. Irving at the above actress." "Note to City Authorities Do not send my body home, as my wife has no money to bury It. Don t bury me in a pauper's grave. I have been tired of life for the last two years, but have lived for my baby's sake. I cannot live longer. I have no work and am out of money. This world Is but a stage, and the curtain has rung down upon one of its main scenes. "W. II. IRVINO." The man was about forty years old and was well dressed. A II I KGLAIl SQ l" ELCH ED.

Mr. Bellman weighs more than 200 pounds and sleeps in a front room over the store. He was awakened by a noise down stairs. Then he dressed himself and stole quietly down stairs and along until he got to the ice box. He saw two men ransacking the cash drawer and helping themselves to cigars and liquors. Bellman jumped to the center of the saloon floor and asked the intruders what they wanted. The tallest rushed at Bellmnn and the other fellow ran out and escaped. The saloon-keeper succeeded in throwing his antagonist and keeping him down by sitting on him. A policeman found him still holding the thief down on the floor. The captive was almost suffocated. His accomplice was captured later. Stll'EEZEI BY A SNAKE. Strange Experience of n Farmer In the Hay Field. DAXBURT, Conn., July" 25. George Fraleigh, of this city, while working at haying one morning last week, pitched a forkful to place it on the load, when he fell on the ground with the hay on top of him. When picked up Fraleigh held a long blacksnake which was coiled about his neck. The serpent did not bite him, but it left a black mark. Fraleigh was disabled from work for the next day. The next morning and every morning since, at the same hour that the snake wound itself around the man's neck, he has been taken with choking spasms and fits of strangulation, and is growing weaker every day. The case Is being watched by local physicians whose efforts to allay his sufferings have thus far proved futile. The snake measured four feet three inches. The Ford Theater Cane.

EX-SECRETARY WHITSEY TALKS OF PRESEXT COMJITIO.XS. The Present Silver Law One of the Factors, Dnt the Preaent Tariff System I a Heavy Tax t'pon the Producing and Industrial C'lasaea. NEW YORK, July 27. The World's Beverly Farms (Mass.) special says: "William C. Whitney, ex'-secretary of the navy, talked to a correspondent today upon the financial situation and its relation to the approaching session of congress. Mr. Whitney had read the statement of President Cleveland's position and the interview with ex-President Harrison, and said: "It Is scarcely necessary for me to say that I heartily indorse Mr. Cleveland's policy of urging the repeal of the Sherman law as a preliminary to tariff reform. I do not see how there can reasonably be two sides to that question. However small may be the actual intrinsic effect of the silver purchases upon the currency there can be no doubt that apprehension of such effect is the first cause of the existing lack of confidence in business circles and the consequent widespread financial distress. If the country is not being drowned in a silver floor' it is at any rate been scared to death by the fear of such a deluge. Either way the result is disastrous. The first thing to be done is to shut off whatever flood there is, be it big or little, and stop the scare. There can be no doubt that the absolute and unqualified repeal of the Sherman law would do this. Even Mr. Harrison implicitly admits this. 'I agree with Mr. Cleveland that simply repeal, without amendment or substitute, is the only thing to be considered now." "But I do not wish to be regarded as considering the repeal of the Sherman law a permanent cure for our national ills. I look upon repeal as a palliative, not a panada. The currency question is not the most vital one with which we have to deal. The poison lies deeper. Xo temporary Jinodyne of financial legislation will eradicate it. The silver scare will not be long over before some other scare will begin, unless we go to the bottom of the trouble and get the business and industry of the country off the artifical basis upon which it is being conducted and upon solid ground again. The country's prosperity will never be permanently established while an annual tax of three or four hundred millions is laid upon its industries. "Xo matter what disguise it may assume our present tariff system Is essentially a tax uiKin the producing and industrial classes. The national government is supported by a tax, not upon property, but upon consumption. The tariff is assessed not upon what men own, but upon what they eat, and drink, and wear. It Is too largely a per capita tax. Under it it is easily possible that a poor man with a large family may be compelled to pay more taxes for the support of the national government than an economical millionaire with only himself to keep. An average man in the middle and lower classes, making income a basi.l of classification, spends say 75 per cent, of his income for food and clothing. The average rich man cannot spend over 5 per cent, of his income for the same purpose. National taxes being levied as they are the general mass of the people, the producing and industrial classes and the groat body of merchants, tradesmen and professional men, pay fifteen times as much tax in proportion to their means as the rich man. There lies the secret of national distress. "The only permanent remedy is in a readjustment of this great burden of taxation and equalizing its pressure upon all alike. Other countries do this. There is no reason why the United States cannot. To such a reform the democratic party is pledged. Upon the strength of that pledge it came into power. Four years before the republican party had promised to revise the tariff, and in the faith that the revision would be in the line of a reduction or an equalization of the tax burdens, the people elected Mr. Harrison. The republicans fulfilled their promise by passing the McKinley bill, increasing the tarl.' and perpetuating its inequalltltes. Tne next election practically wlpi the republican party as then constltued out of existence. "The McKinley bill mistake of the republicans would be a mere quibble compared with the monumental folly of which the democratic party would be guilty should it ignore the issue upon which it elected Mr. Cleveland When the democratic sheep take to following republican shepherds we may expceS them to accept Mr. Harrison's advice and acknowledge that their principles are mistaken ones. So long as Mr. Cleveland and his presnt advisors lead the flock there Is no danger of such a catastrophe. "The silver scare once out of the way, there should be no delay about tariff reform. If Mr. Harrison were as frank as he is shrewd, he would not lay foundation for a fresh destruction of public confidence by predicting fresh disaster from an attempt to bridge over suddenly the wide chasm intervening between comparative free trade and a protective system. "Neither he. nor any othr leading republican, really believes that Mr. Cleveland is an anarchist, and the members of the democratic party In a vast conspiracy against the prosperity of the whole people, 'democrats included. H the regularly elected representatives of a great majority of all the people of this country, chosen after a discussion running through years, can not be trusted to bring about tariff reform in a conservative, judicious manner, safeRaurding to the greatest possible extent established interests, where those interests are not inimical to the public welfate. a republican form of government Is a failure. Of course there will be some friction about it; men ind Industries which have thrived on governmental favor are bound to suffer when that favor is withdrawn, no matter how carefully the v. ithdrawal is effected. The effort of beating off a highwayman may involve unpleasant perspiration, but shall we therefore submit to being robbed ?"

WORK OF A MOB IN DENVER.

LY.XCHPVO LAST MGHT IV THE HEART OF THE CITY. A Crowd of at Lend Five Thoninnil Märchen to the .full, Batter Down the Doors and Makes Quirk Work of the It. linn Murderer Arata. DENVER. July 26. Last night B. C. Llghtfoot, an old Grand Army man of this city, entered a saloon in the bottoms kept by Dan Arata, an Italian of unsavory fame Llghtfoot asked for a glass of beer a ; 1 paid tur it. When he drunk It Ara'.a asked him to have another drink. Llghtfoot, supposing It to be a "treat" accepted and started to leave the place. Arata stopped him and demanded pay for the beverage. Llghtfoot did not have the necessary money and the Italian picking up a chair brutally assaulted him, knocking out the left eye the first blow. The murderous bartender followed his attack literally beating the poor old man, who was sixty years of age and rather childish, nearly to death. But he was not quite dead and to make sure of his victim Arata shot him through the heart. The murderer was arrested and placed in jail. All day there have been murmurs, not only among the grand army men, but of the people in general, 'regarding the brutal deed. Many threats of lynching were heard, , but not heeded by the straight-going people of Denver, who thought that quick justice had passed away with the frontier days. A meeting of the unemployed men was called for this evening at 8 o'clock at Eightenth and Market-sts., where speeches were made deploring the present stringency in the money market and the resultant Idleness. When the speakers were through a tall, gray-headed and whiskered veteran, wearing the G. A. R. uniform, got upon the stand and said: -"Follow me." The words were few, but everybody understood what was meant and 5000 people followed the leader to the county Jail, fully a mile and a quarter distant. through mud and slush caused by the heavy shower of today. The crowd gained members in their long march, . and before the jail was reached fully 10.000 were in line and people were flocking in from every reet, most of them bent on seeing what was going to be done. Arriving at the Jail the mob hesitated, for they had forgotten to supply themselves with sledges and other necessary tools for breaking down the doors. Numerous calls were made for battering rams, etc., and the crowd rushed hither and thither and were not long in procuring the objects wanted. Then the real work began.' Hntlcrlng Down the Jnll. The jail is anew and massive one and no one in the crowd outside of the leaders thought that it could be entered by a mob. The, mob attacked the side of the Jail at once, the ones on the north side being the most determined. They finally battered down the sheet iron on the door, protecting the inside bars of the office entrance and then began the next obstruction. t this point Capt. Crewes, the Jailer, and his guards, assisted by the city police, who were inside, then turned a heavy stream of water upon the men battering the door. Although the force of the stream threw the angry men back repeatedly, yet they kept on at their work. Up to now a gas jet at the entrance afforded the attacking party sufficient light to work, but suddenly the besieged turned off the light and left things in utter darkness. Several cable cars were seen approaching and the mob made a dash for them, tearing off the large headlights and bringing them to the aid of the men at work at the door. Then the guards Inside began to fire. Into the Jail. The enraged mob did not hesitate, although two of their number were shot, but not fatally. The mob rushed in, overpowered the guards and made them prisoners. At last Arata's eel I was broken into and the murderer . found crouching in the corner. Here an awful scene ensued. One of the leaders of the mob was "Broncho Jim," a burly negro. Some one, probably Broncho Jim, drew a huge knife and ripped the müderer up the abdomen. Then the rest of the leaders interfered and kept him for the rope. He was hustled out of the jail across the street to a cottonwood tree, and in the dim light cast by an arc light from a near by corner, was pulled up. He was asked if he had anything to say. In a feeble tone, bleeding from the ghastly wound in his body, he said: "I am the man; I killed him in self defense." The murderer was suddenly jerked off the earth and several persons drew sixshooter and riddled his body with bullets. The mob packed around the tree with awful force, many striking matches to view the corpse and some giving it a vindictive push. At last the rope broke and the body fell into the gutter underneath the tree with a splash. The crowd laughed and cheered and yelled "Burn him; burn him like they do in Texas." This, however, was rather impracticable as everything within reach was soaking wet. The mob finally compromised by getting hold of the rope and strating for the business part of the city. The corpse was dragged by the neck through the mud into the heart of the city. At Seventeenth and Curtls-sts. they strung him up to a huge telegraph pole for the edification of those who had not been present at the original hanging. Police Did ot Interfer-. The police did not Interfere with the awful procession as It passed through the street, and U was only after the body of the murderer had teen swayed in the electric light for ten minutes that they came up and removed it to the morgue. The people then dispersed, it being the hour of midnight, and the city aga'n became tranquil. The foremost leader of the

WORLD'S FAIR GROUNDS. July 2C Commercial travelers' day at the fair was well observed today. The American exhibitors association made special arrangements for the entertainment of the traveling men and received the visitors at the headquarters of the association at the Tr-rminal station building. Later the commercial travelers assembled at Festival hall, where the Cincinnati band under the direction of Michael Brand gave a special concert, and at the formal reception addresses were made by Director-General Davis and President Hlginbotham, and responses by O. J. Dowd. of Chicago, World's Fair Commissioner Mitchell of Des Moines and John Fenimore of Columbus. A military concert was given by the Iowa state band of fifty pieces upon the balcony of the terminal station at 4 o'clock. The display of fire works this evening was something exceptionally fine. The program of pyrotechnic features was arranged especially in honor of the Commercial travelers' association. Another reason-recognized by the exposition authorities as justifying an especially attractive program of public entertainment for the night of fireworks, illuminations of the grounds and buildings and special musical programs was the presence upon the grounds of thousands of members of the German-American turner societies, this being "turnerbund day." The black republic of Liberia formally dedicated its pavilion In the Agricultural building today, although the unique exhibit ofthe Africans has been open to the public for some time. A large number of people attended the reception and the guests were received by President King of the Liberian commission, assisted by William K. Rotherby, ex-Liber-lan consul at Philadelphia, and John Enoch Thompson, consul general for Liberia in Canada. The Liberian exhibit is unique and characteristic of African life. The fence is made of wild ropes and native tree trunks and the decorations are great cones of rare ivory or groups of handsomely mottled skins, with everywhere slashes of red. white and emblems of the same with blue corner and the big white star. In the center are stacks of coffee, the staple production of the land, and almost endless collections of implements of war and domestic appliances. So complete is it that already the Armour institute and the Chicago university have talked with the commission about securing the collection intact when the exposition is finished. Four special trains were required to convey the turners who arrived in the city today after their annual tournament in Milwaukee. Thousands of German-American citizens of Chicago and vicinity participated in the program of the day. When completed the Yerkes telescope which has been donated to the University of Chicago will be the largest in the world. The mounting of the telescope is now being put together in the Manufactures' building. The square iron piece supporting the tube was put in place in the north end of Columbia-ave. last May. It was about thirty feet high and in four sections. The tube is made in five sections, which altogether are sixtyfour feet In length and weigh six tons. The head and axis weigh thirty tons. They will be. put together within a week. The great lenses will not be ready for a year, and the mounting was prepared in advance only that it might be exhibited at the fair. iillonnl Educational Association. CHICAGO. July 26. The international meetings of the National educational association assembled in fifteen separate meetings in the art palace today. The department of higher education was called to order by President D. C. Gilman of the John' Hopkins university, Baltimore, who made the opening address. Prof. Andrew F. West of Princeton is the secretary of this department. The department considered the question. "How Far Is It Desirable That Unlversties Should Be of One Type?" Martin Kellogg, valedictorian of the class of 1S50 at Yale, now president of the university of California, opened the discussion by stating that universities should aim at special excellence in certain portions of the whole field. This view was inlorsed by Dr. Fiske and Dr. Hurlburt of the department of theology of the university of Chicago. WIIE THE E.XEIttilES FLA lue Hosford' Acid Phonphate. Dr. T. C. Smith, Charlotte. N.

THREE RAILROAD WRECKS.

OVER THIRTY' PERSONS IXJTRED WHILE EX ROUTE TO THE FAIR. Three Coaches Plunge Down an Embankment and the Passenger Are Can cht In Their Sleep A Serloifa Sniash-l'p In Massachusetts. KENT, O., July 23. A sandy roadbed, rotten ties, a heavy loaded train and fast running over a sharp curve are the causes which resulted in one of the most miraculous road wrecks that ever occurred In the history of the Y. & W. road. The wreck occurred at what is known as the Devil's point, four miles west of here, at 5 o'clock this morning. The ill-fated train was a through excursion from Washington. D. C. to Chicago, carrying nearly 400 passengers. The three rear coaches left the track and were precipitated down a ten-foot embankment, seriously injuring thirtythree people. Fortunately no one was killed outright, but It is expected several will die. Two of the coaches were turned bottom up, and that the passengres escaped with their lives seems almost phenomenal. Many were pinned fast under the wreck, while others were unconscious fro mthe blows sustained for as much as thirty minutes. If reports are true, the accident was due to negligence on the part of those whose business it is to keep the track in repair. The train was going around a sharp curve when the accident occurred. The accident was due to defective ties at this point. The Fatally Injured. J. II. Morelck, Humlston. Ia. Judson Hunt, Philadelphia. Letla Hunt, Baltimore, Md. The Injured are: Henry F. Ileyle, Philadelphia, back sprained. II. P. Beyer, Coats ville, Ta., serious cut in head. William Narrow. Philadelphia, head cut and back hurt. Louis Sternbach. Baltimore, left leg cut and bruised. James E. Muse, Baltimore, back sprained. Frank White. Lafayette, Ta., slightly cut. Mrs. Eliza White, Lafayette, Pa., shoulder dislocated. I. H. Moredick, Washington. D. C, severe scalp wound. F. O. Stoats, Venice, Va., back injured. William Hunt, Baltimore, Md., injured internally and head cut. J. K. Allen, Baltimore, Md., arm and ribs broken. W. A. Mode, Washington, D. C back injured. H. C. Mode, Washington. D. C, wound on head. Mrs. Maggie Coere. Washington. D. C, injured internally and arm broken. Mrs. Mary X. Smith, Baltimore, Md., head cut. Anna Miller. Washington. D. C, hurt about head, arm and side. Lillian Cramer, Camden. X. J., arm fracture. Isabel Forbes, Camden, N. J., head cut. H. M. Xuce. Camden, cuts In head and back. L. Stuart. Baltimore, Md., injured about breast and head. Mrs. Lillian Sturgeon, cut about the head. Mrs. Sturgeon and three children were on board. All the injured passengers were in the day coaches. Many of them were asleep when the train jumped the track and did not realize what had happened. The greatest confusion prevailed. The last coach was smashed into kindling wood and it is a mystery that any of the occupants came out alive.

The Xew York mail train that left the Parke Square station of the Providence division of the Old Colony system of the New York. Xew Haven & Hartford road at 12:01 a. m. was derailed at Dodgeville, a suburban village at Attleboro, at about 1 o'clock this morning. The train consisted of engine 147. two U. S. mail cars, a baggage car and several passenger coaches. The engine and two forward cars were thrown from the track within a stone's throw of the station. A freight train from Boston had passed through Attleboro at night and switched off some of the cars at Dodgeville, and one of them was left on the main track in the way of the mail train. The train was making about forty miles an hour when it met the obstruction. The engine was badly demolished and the forward mail cars completely wrecked. A mail clerk named C. J. Miller, belonging in Xew York, was instantly killed, and another clerk named Murphy was seriously hurt. Several of the passengers were also injured. Conductor Keene filed his report at 1:20 o'clock. There is no telegraph office at the station, and he was forced to cover a distance of several miles before he could inform the dispatcher of the catastrophe. The only passenger coach in the train was a sleeper, a car of the Wagner pattern. This car was filled with passengers. The railroad officials say that this car was comparatively uninjured, and that none of the passengers was injured. When closely questioned, the dispatcher declined to answer how he was assured that no persons other than the mail clerks were among the hurt, but did say that Conductor Keene informed him that so far as he knew there had been no one injured outside of the occupants of the forward cars.

The food of children should receive special attention. During the ase of growth the digestive organs are taxed severely to supply the enormous amount of nutriment necessary for the building up of the body. Comparatively few parents realize the important part which diet plays in the production of physical robustness. A child who Is puny, pale and sallow is likely to become an adult of inferior mental and physical capabilities, and excessive fatness in childhood is quite as much to be feared. Either condition invites disease, and parents should know that much may be done to avoid both excessive leanness and excessive fatness by an intelligent and persistent attention to the child's diet.
