T., say that the decision of the Interior Department, i holding that claimants for citizenship will not be allowed to remain in the Territory until after the claim is adjusted, is causing much excitement. The decision affects a large number of persons. At Portland, Ore., NValter Wols and a Chinaman named Ching Long while working in a brickyard fell into a mass of almost red-hot sand.

Near Savannah, Ga., Walter Asburg, a negro who made a brutal assault on a girl was taken to an open by 300 men and stiuug up to a tree. His body was then filled with bullets. THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. Dr. Hammond, in an interview at Washington on the use of the so-called elixir of life, says: ‘’Judging from the reports in the newspapers of the experiments with the Brown-Sequard fluid, they have been conducted in an extremely unscientific and illogical manner. The reports state that the fluid has been sterilized by the doctors using it. They might as well boil it, so far as the process affects its properties. It is made absolutely dead and useless by being sterilized. Again, Dr. Brown-Sequard took fifteen injections, extending over more than a month, before he ventured a report of its effect upon him. There was no immediate effect from it. Having no elixir to-day, I used water. One man . who was rheumatic said he felt like anew man. This shows the folly of jumping ! at conclusions. ” The fluid two or three I hours old. Dr. Hammond thinks, would i not be dangerous, but would have lost its | strength. If putrid, it would be dangerI ous. Pension Commissioner Tanner has ; issued the following order: To Chiefs of Divisions : The rule which has hitherto maintained in this office regarding ! proof of origin of disability, under which the i evidence of one commissioned officer or one orderly sergeant was accepted, while, in the absence of that evidence the testimony of two private soldiers has been required, is hereby so : far modified that, in the absence of the evidence I of the commissioned officer or the orderly ser--1 geant, the origin shall be held to lie proved on I the evidence of the claimant and one private ! soldier; provided always, that said claimant i and said private be men of character. Assistant Secretary Bussey, in a I decision in the appeal of Daniel B. KaufI man, a pension claimant, has rescinded rule 135, made by Commissioner Black, ' and has overruled the opinion of ex-As-i sistant Secretary Hawkins in the same ; case, that a “dishonorable discharge” from i the service operates as a “bar to pension.” i The opinion re-establishes the ruling of the Department which prevailed through all administrations antedating the issuance of rule No. 135 by Gen. Black. The following naval cadets have been
appointed; James Thompson Brynot, ! Greensburg, Pa., Twenty-first District, and Fred Charles Irwin, Grass Lake, Mich., Second District. j POLITICAL PORRIDGE. The lowa State Convention, in session at Des Moines, made the following ■ nominations: For Governor, J. G. Hutchison; for Lieutenant Governor, A. N. Poyneer; for Su rime Judge, Judge i Given; for Superintendent of Public In- . struction, Henry Sabin; for Railroad Commissioner, Spencer Smith. i RAILWAY GOSSIP. The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Road has given notice that it would adopt the proportional tariff already in effect via the Burlington and Northern on traffic originating at the seaboard and destined to St. Paul. This makes four roads that have so far signified their intention of ignoring the long and short h <ul clause of the interstate commerce law on Northwestern business in order to bo able to compete against the foreign carriers without demoralizing their local rates. ACROSS THE OCEAN. Jacques Damala, Sarah Bernhardt’s husband, died suddenly at a well-known Paris hotel. His health had been unsatisfactory for several months, and he suffered greatly from the effects of his use of morphia. The direct cause of his death was congestion of the brain. The return to Samoa of King Malietoa and other - exiles is reported. The exKing was warmly welcomed by the natives, and his own flag was hoisted. King Mataafa also greeted Malietoa with cordiality. The German Consul informed Malietoa that he was at liberty to do as he pleased. There was great destruction of prop- I erty and reported loss of life in NVest Clareborough, County Clare, Ireland, the other day, caused by floods which swept over hundreds of acres of farming lands, i Nearly all the growing crops were swept [ away out to sea. The loss will aggregate ' an enormous sum. Details as to the loss of life, are not complete, but it is thought several persons were drowned. FRESH AND NEWSY At Victoria, B. - C., news has been received of the capture of two more Victoria scaling schooners in Behring Sea. The vessels are the Pathfinder and the Minnie. At the time of the capture by the Rush the Pathfinder had SGO skins. The American schooners Ariel and Teresa are also reported to have been boarded but allow to proceed, although they had seals on board, on condition that they at once leave Behring Sea. Twenty Arabs, of both sexes, are detained at Castle Garden, N. Y., until the Turkish Consul can be consulted. It is said there are 70,000 Arabs waiting to come to this count ry provided the twenty are passed through. Articles of agreement have been signed between Teenier and Gaudaur for a four-mile sen 11 race for SI,OOO a side at McKeesport, Pa., on Sept. 14. R. G.

ARREST OF JUDGE FIELD' A WARRANT SERVEI> ON THE SUFREME BENCH JURIST. ! Judge Sawyer Grants a Habeas ( nrpiK Writ, and the Prisoner Is Quickly Free on 185,000 Bail Funeral of the Slain— Marshal Nagle's Delense I’rovidod tor. ' A San Francisco dispatch says: Justice Stephen J. Field of the United States Supreme court was- arrested here Fri lay on a charge of being a party to the killing । of David S. Terry at Lathrop last Wednesday morning. The application for a writ of habeas corpus was at once made, and ' the matter was heard by Judge Sawyer of the United States Circuit court, who granted the writ and released .Justice Field on $5,000 bail. The warrant for Justice Field’s arrest was issued by a justice of the peace in Stockton, on the complaint of Mrs. Sarah Althea Terry. Sheriff Cunningham of Stockton arrived here with the warrant /Thursday night, and he applied to Judge Rix of the police court to indorse it Judge Rix took the matter under advisement and consulted with District Attorney Page, who expressed the opinion that the warrant should be indorsed, as it was issued in the regular form and the judge should not consider the individuality of the person against whom it was directed. Counsel who appeared for Justice Field, urged the judge to take testimony to ascertain if the warrant hud been issued. He declared that the issuance of the warrant was nothing more than an attempt to humiliate a justice of the Supreme court. Judge Rix finally indorsed the warrant and placed it in the hands of Sheriff Cunningham, who went to the United States appraiser’s building, whore Field’s chambers and located. Justice Field arrived at his chajnbers about noon, and with Judge Brewer of Kansas and Judge Sawyer awaited the arrival of the sheriff. Sheriff Cunningham . went first to the marshal’s office, and then, accompanied by Chief of Police Crowley, Capt. Lees, and United States Marshal Franks, proceeded to Justice Field’s chamber. Justice Field arose to receive the l party and Sheriff Cunningham presented the warrant and formally made the ariest. I An application was made at once for a i writ of habeas corpus. Judge Sawyer granted the writ and retired to the Circuit court room. District Attorney Carey an- I nounced that Sheriff Cunningham had obeyed the writ of habeas corpus and produced the prisoner, and that he now awaited the further pleasure of the court. Judge Sawyer set the case lor a hearing for next Thursday morning and ordered Justice Field’s release, fixing the bail at $5,000. Tim petition for the writ of habeas corpus was made by Justice Field himself, and is a very long document It sets forth in detail the facts of the case already known, and declares that at the breakfast table at, Lathrop, Justice Field was maliciously and wickedly assaulted from behind without any forewarning by David S. Terry, which assault was not provoked by tiny act, word, or deed of the petitioner. The details of the contoinpt proceedings of September last, when Sirs Torry caused the sensational scene in the Circuit court, room, are then set forth. The petition next sets forth that at the time of the shooting Justice Field was accompanied by David Nagle, deputy United States mar hd who was acting under instructions irom the AttorneyGeneral of the United States and Marshal Franks. The petitioner declares that ho in no way or manner defended or protected himself, and was in no wav i esponsible for any direction' given Nagle or any other person, and that ho was merely present at tha place of shooting while en route from Los Angeles tn San Francisco while in discharge of his official duties. Ho further declares that he was not then nor has he been at any time for many years armed with any woamm whatever, nor hus he us d any weapon whatever. Action will bo taken seeking for tin order 5 from the United States court upon Sheriff ' Ciinninirbum to at once deliver Deputy Marshal Nagle into the custody of the i United States Marshal. Upon which, if obeyed, the deputy will be brought to this ; city. Application was made by Attor- | ney Crittenden to the Supreme court of i California to adjourn as a mark of respect ■to the memory of Judge Terry, ex chief . justice. Chief Justi e Beatty deelined to 1 entertain the motion in the following language, after remarking that he was . sorry that the motion has been made: “It is a very unpleasant affair, but the 1 court has fully considered the same and ! deems it the wisest mode of treating the ■ subject in silence. The sudden death of j David S. Terry is notorious and it is the ; decision of this court that it takes no fur : ther action in the matter.” The funeral of Judge Terry was held at Stockton Friday. The body was removed from the morgue at noon and taken to the Episcopal church, where it lay m state for two hours and was viewed by a great number of people. Mrs. Terry occupied a pew near the casket and watched the face of the dead all the while. Several times she left the seat and threw herself upon the casket. The service was read by one of ; the vestrymen of the church. The body I was buried in a cemetery in the town. Deputy United States Maishal Nagle, who ■ shot and killed David S. Terry, was released ( from jail at Stockton at 5 o’clock Saturday morning on a writ of habeas corpus issued ' by Judge Sawyer of the United States | Circuit court. He passed through here en । route for San Franciso, accompanied by Marshal Franks. United States Attorney Cary of San Francisco received a telegram ; from the Department of Justice at Washington instructing him to assume, : on behalf of the United States government, the defense of Deputy United States Marshal David Nagle. !

Great Men and Good Milliners. । The Chief Justice of the United States lives on a beautiful knoll iu the suburbs of Washington. His elegant home, called “Belmont,” with turrets and spires, built of rough light-col-ored stone, is only a few rods from the Fourteenth street car line that leads to the White House and the Capitol. As I was hurriedly passing his home recently in the pouring rain, I saw three little girls all in a flutter of haste and excitement —wrapped in gossamers, with school-bags tucked away out of the wet —running to catch the car. Just behind them walked a scholarly looking, gray-haired gentleman, with a most kindly, sunny face shining out from under the umbrella. “O, papa! papa! do hurry; you’re getting so wet,” I heard said; and the three little maids stopped and turned back to hold and pull and tug away at the quiet gentleman, hurrying him to take his place in the crowded car, packed with a rainy-morning crowd. “Papa” took hold of the strap, and the rosy little daughters kept fast hold of him to steady themselves in the swaying throng. The dripping umbrella leaned against the door, and the gentleman chatted pleasantly with the conductor, helped an old colored woman with huge basket of clothes to a place beside him; and when the "transfers” were given for Pennsylvania avenue and the little family “changed cars,” a murmur of inquiry and pleasure swept over the faces of those left. “Who was that gentleman ? Do you know him?” The conductor walked through, very straight, and looked very proud as he said: “That man was Chief Justice Fuller, and he rides on my car every day. We like him. We like him and all his family. They ain’t a a bit proud, nor stuck up, and they know good manners from shoddy ones everytime. Mr. Chief Justice talks to us conductors just as kind and good as he does to the President. We hope he will stay on our line forever!”—H7deAwake. A Good Figure. A physician advises women who wish to preserve the shape of their feet never to stand if by any possibility they can sit. They should, however, learn to stand well. That is explained to mean the throwing forward and upward of the chest, the flattening of the back, xvith the shoulder blades held in their proper places, and the definite curving in the small of the back, thus throwing the whole weight ujuni the hips. No ot her women hold themselves so well as the aristocratic English women. Much of their beauty lies in their proud carriage, the delicate erectness of their figures ami the tine poise of their heads. The sumo aristocratic carriage is within the reach of any American girl who takes the pains to have it. It is only the question of a few years of eternal vigilance, never relaxing her watchfulness over herself and. sitting, or standing, always preserving her ereetness and poise, the result being that at the end of that time it. has become second nature to her and she never afterward loses it. This in a great measure preseves the figure, because it keeps the muscles firm and well strung and prevents the sinking down of the flesh around the waist and hips, so common in women over thirty, and which it is ]>erfeetlv easy to escii) o. Another thing to avoid is a bud habit of going up stairs, which most women do, bent forward, with the chest contracted, which, as well as an indolent, slouchy manner of walking, is injurious to the heart and lungs Self-defense Against a Dangerous Foe. Forewarned is not fori armed in the case of those who Incur the risk of . attack from that dangerous foe, malaria, unprovided with a means of defense. But if those in peril are aided, sustained, and re-enforced with the great fortifying safeguard, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, miasma, prolific breeder of evils manifested in the shape of bilious remittent and chills and fever, ague cake, dumb ague, and the eaten tura of the Isthmus and Central American coast, is nullified and rendered harmless. Our Western pioneer settlors and miners, dwellers In tropic lowlands, and visitants of and dwellers in malarious localities in this country and many quarters of the globe, have for years been acquainted with the fact, and are conn(anlly provided w ith this unparalleled defensive medicine and remedy. All disorder of the stomach, liver, and bowels, rheumatic and kidney complaints and rheumatism are conquered by it. Swindled by a Dream. Hostetter Maginnis dropped into Mose Shaumburg’s store one day last week, and in. - tead of his usual cordial greeting the latter accosted him with : “Maginnis, old boy, I’se so mad as der tuy vil!” “ What has roused your ire?” interrogated Hostetter. “Gott, in himmel! I dhream las’ nide I vas zelling a cote fur dwenty-fife tollars vot yust cost fife und it yust meek me mat, cos it vas all a dhream. I gif you my wort, I yust lose dwenty tollars by dat dhream.” Outlandish Pronunciations. Boston girl—Did you ever!

She was told by uiriend, who. like her, had suffered untold misery irom a com- , plication of female troubles, that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription would certainly cure her. This friend "knew whereof she spoke,” ' for sho had been cured by the remedy she advised her friend to use. Sho is enthusiastic in its praise, and tells her friends that Dr. Pierce deserves the universal gratitude of womankind for having given it this infallible remedy for its peculiar ailments, it is guaranteed to give satisfaction in every case or money refunded.

r Great Waste Spots. The Sahara desert, according to Air. Joseph F. Janies, is a diversified area 3,100 miles Jong by 000 wide. Summer is its only season, its days scorching, its nights cold. Its soil is chiefly gravel and coarse sand. Its oases enable caravans to cross it, although much of the area is otherwise waterless and destitute of all vegetable and animal life. The desert of Gobi, the Asiatic Sahara, is more than 1,800 miles long ami 500 wide. It is a plateau 5,000 feet high, a waste of sand and rock, with few oases, and only five trees in a distance of 500 miles. Ice forms nearly every night and the temperature often falls to thirty or forty degrees below zero. The interior of Australia rivals these two great deserts, and is the most terrible of all to travelers on account of its heat and the lack of water. It contains about a half-million square miles, and the northern part is almost entirely destitute of vegetation. The Arabian desert is a sandy xvaste of about 50,000 square miles, dotted here and there with a few stunted bushes or dwarfed jialms. A characteristic of this and other Asiatic deserts is the suffocating simoom. A large part of Persia is a desert tract, in which vegetation is so rare that one may travel 300 miles and see only one tree. Here the salt desert, with a porous crusted surface, often extends Kill miles in length by half as much in width. In South America the Puna extends for 350 Spanish miles in length at an elevation of 12,000 feet. A brown grass covers the ground, there are but few trees, and a single tuberous plant alone can be cultivated. Another desert of Peru —now partially subdued by man and crossed by a railroad — stretches 1,200 miles along the Pacific, from eight to fifty miles wide. 'The Great American desert of the United States is a basin region of many hundreds of squaie miles of rock, sand and alkali, with n scanty growth of sage brush and a little animal life.
