The following message has been sen* ~ to Congress by President Harrison: - > 3 Tg ’l‘l;e)Sel\u‘tte ar}d H‘ouse of Representatives : : ’ 1e recent attempt to secure g chap ter from the State of North Dakota so ! lottery company, the pending cgf‘m.t rta obtain from the State of Louisiana g : ~ newal of the charter of the Loui&i‘-llx‘](; State Lottery, and the establishment of one or more lotiery companies at Mexi. can towns near our border, have serveg a good purpose of calling public atten. . tion to an evil of vast proportions It the baneful effects of the lotturieqkivor( confined to the States that gave the come panies corporate powers and a license te conduct a business, the citizens of othes smtesz bem_g powerless to apply lega reme@lgsz might clear themgelves of re. sponsibility by the use of such mora agencies as were within theip reach But the case is not so. The people of al the States are debauched and defrauded ’{‘he vast sums of money offered to the States for charters are drawn from the people of the United States and the Gen. eral Government, through its mail svs tem, is made the effective and profitable medium of intercourse between the lot, tery company and its vietims. _“The use of the mails is quite as essential to the companies as the State licenso, It would be practically impossible for the_se companies to exist if the public mails were once effectually closed against their advertisements and remittancos The use of the mails by these companiog -is a prostitution of an ageney oniy intended to serve purposes of lugitinm.r,e trade and a decent social intercourse. I is notnecessary, ITam sure, for me to attempt to portray the robbery of the poor and tl‘l9 widespread corruption of public and private morals which are the neces sary mmc}eqts of these lottery schemes, : “The National Capital has become § _Bub-headquarters of the Louisiana Lot tery Company, and its numerous agents and a:ttornf:ys are conducting here a husi ness m_volvmg probably a larger use of the mails than that of any legitimate business enterprise in the District of Columbia. There seems to be good rea son to believe that the corrupting ek of these agents has been felt bv the clerks in the postal service and by some of the police officers in the Distriot, Severe and effective legisiation shionld be promptly enacted to enable the postofice department to purge the mails of all lot ters. The letter of the postmaster-gen eral, which 1 transmit herewith, points out the inadequacy of the existing statutes and suggests legislation that would be .effective. It may also be necessary to so regulate the carry. ing of letters by the expres ~ompanies as to prevent the use of those agencies tc maintain communication between the lottery companies and their agents o customers in other cities. It does not seem possible that there can be any di vision of sentiment as to the propriety of closing the mails against these companies, and I therefore venture to express the hope that such proper powers as are necessary to that end will be given to the postoftice department. “BENJAMIN HARRISON. “Execntive Mansion, July 29, 1890.” The letter of the Postmaster General referred to by the President calls attention to the inefliciency of the present law, and recommends the passage of the antilottery bill recently reported to the House. ALTERED THE CHECKS. Changed the Names and Drew the Money. New York telegram: Inspector Byrnes’ men are looking for 'Thomas T. Graff, who was confidential clerk for Stewart & Parker, insurance brokers. The firm thought a great deal of Graff, for he was a novelty to them, conscicntious, attentive to business, and apparently without any vices. Their first confidential clerk, an Englishman, fell in love with a pretty American girl, attempted to shoot her at her house because she would not marry him, and then committed suicide. His successor and Graff’s predecessor went mad in a rowboat in New York bay. - On Saturday, July 14, Mr. Stewart drew three checks on the GermanAmerican bank, in all $1,513. They were drawn to the oraers of three insurance companies. Mr. Stewart gave the checks to Graff and told him to see that they were delivered. Graff took the checks into the next office. the door of which was open, and, according to Mr. Parker, while talking with his employer, removed the names of the payees from the checks by means of acids. Then he wrote ‘‘bearer” on two of the checks and his own name on the third. Mr. Stewart sat only a tew feet away from him at the time, and Graft kept talking in the most natural manner about business affairs. When the work had been completed Grafl went around to the bank and had the check bearing his own name certified. The The other two he had cashed. He returned to the office and told Mr. Stew- " art that the companies had been paid. Then he left the office, it being a halfholiday, and has not been seen since. S S R Told In a Few Words.

'\—\-—————.—_ LAST DROP OF W v " WATER. N NINE DAYS AT sEA IN OPEN BEOATS. : s s— Fate of a Norwezian Bark—Collides vwith an Iceberg and Is Sunk—Great Privar ?‘o,?; Endured by the Shipwrecked Crow e Adrift Among Icebergs, { Quebec (Canada) dispateh: The bark Askow, from Hamburg, which arrived ‘ here last night, had on board Capt. Aunderson, the mate, and four of thi crew of the Norwegian bark Speranza, Capt.‘ Anderson, which was sunk off phe Grand Banks in collision with an iceberg. Capt. Anderson, in his story of t’h‘e accident, says: ‘“The ship had several very close shaves, and one day did actually run into an iceberg, but without doing any great damage.” The incident made them more c:'mtious. Two nights after- { ward, \)'hf*l\ In a thick fog, a stiff northwest wind blowing, and the vessel mak- i Ing very good time, she ran plump into | an iceberg as tall as her spars and, Capt. Anderson believes, fully a m.lln )‘m:g. He savs it was running Into the face of a cliff. lhc' bark’s bows were crushed in | . as™ if she were an egg shell, and be- i fore those aboard could collect their senses the vessel began settling in the | water. Captain Anderson gave orders to work the pumps, but only a half-’ {l()lfll sirokes had been taken before it | 1t was found that to save their lives | the erew must desert the ship immedi- 1 ately. One side of the vessel was still crunching against *the side of tho berg. and the foretopmast with its rigging, and the forward yards | were Strung over both bows, whereo thev had fallen when ) the vessel struck. The wate« below | rushed out of the forecastle in their ' trousers and shirts when the shock came, and all hands at once togik to the I two boats. The second mate took com- | mand of the smaller boat, with three | others of the crew, while the captain | and the first mate, with four of tlmi crew, took the larger boat. The smaller | boat has not been seen since the day l after the collision, three weeks :Lgo.l and they are all thought to be lost. | The captain’s boat had very little ! provisions in it, and the next morning | an attempt was mado to lay a course for | the Newfoundlaud coast. But they had | apparently struck the eastern edge of a | great ficld of ice and icebergs, for they ' rowed and sailea about for three days | in the fog and ice before finding g pas- I sage safe enough to justify their going ; on toward the coast. The small boat | became separated from them in the [ fog, and was probably ecrushed to | pieces among the great bergs, l Captain Anderson’s boat had many ; narrow escapes, but weathered | them all safely. On the sixth day I starvation stared them in the face. They had cleared the icebergs, bus their provisions and water were nearly all gone. On the eighth day the last drop of water gave out, but on the i afternoon of the ninth day the Askow | hove in sight and picked up the un-l fortunate men. A boy in the captain’s boat had his feet badly frozen. and the | seamen wer: all more or less exhausted g by their privation and the intense cold. | POOR OUTLOOK FOR CROPS. } Groat Damage Cnused by Drought ln! the Northwest, i St. Paul (Minn.) special: The hot | winds of the past half-dozen days havae | materially affected the crop prospects | of all North Dakota counties on the | Missouri slope. While some of the ade | vanced wheat fields will not be injured | the late grain will not fill well. Near { Miller, MecLean county some of the | farmers have turned their stock into | the fields. At Conkling some fields are almost burned up and it will all be badly damaged. At Turtle Lake the crop outlook is poqr indeed. Nothing but rain and copl weather can save it now. The weather still continues hot and dry around Aberdeen, S. D., and reports from several points in a radius of . fifty miles indicate the wheat croo I 3 | badly damaged and will not average over three to five bushels per acre. The Minnesota outlook is generally ‘good, though there are several points in the northern counties that report serious damage from hot winds. ! e e e e e ' FATAL PRACTICAL 3JOKE. i A Little Pleasantry at Webster City, fowa, Ends in a Shooting. .

Hannaford and a crowd of friends pianned the joke. One of their number was dressed in feminine apparel and pretended to be greatly smitten with Carpenter. The pretended young lady invited him to call on her at her room in the hotel. After he had accepted the invitation the gang broke into the room, and a,ppuren‘tly’ were greatly shocked at the situation | of affairs. Before the jokers could ex- | plain Carpenter whipped out a reyolver and shot Hannaford in the thigh, inflicting a dangerous wound. FOURTEEN PERISHED. .

R B SR O SAP e———— Arrogance. A great general alwavs knows when he must be severe and when he may be open to the approach and even the adVice of his subordinates. Gen. Grant was an excellen! example of a man who Fossessed this faculty, for no man ever vetter understood how to exact what was due to his position, or could be at the Bam - time more simple in his relations with other men. A good example, among modern commnndgrs, of the opposite quality was! supplied by Marshal Benedek, the Aus- | trian commander at the battle of Sadowa i In 1866, During this engagement, the | forces of the Prussi-ng, under the com- | mvflnt_i of the Crown Prince Frederick | W illiam, began a movement the full sig- | nificance of which was only perc:-ived; mong the Austrians by Gen. Braga, ! ! then of inferior rank, and but 34 years of [ | age. | Braga rode to Marshal Benedek, and | i communicated his information as to the‘ Inntura of the enemy’s movemen‘. The | | commander-in-chief coldly retused to ! { take any notice of it. ! | Fearing the worst results to the armyl and to the country, Braga ventured to] I urge upon Benadek the certainty of his | Iniormation and the probability of his! | own opinion concerning it. ' | “If you do not withdraw,” Marshal i ! Banedek exclaimed, angrily, “I will have | you shot on the spot.” l l Braga withdrew. The ('rown Prince’s | | troops advanced rapidly, and strock the’ l blow that Braga had apprehended. The ‘ | Prussians were victorious; the result of | i the battle was decisive of the war. Aus- | tria was humiliated before Europe, and | Prussia was laised to a commanding i | position, } Benedek will be remembered chiefly in history as the commander who was beat|en at Sadowa. Braga’s exhibition of {sn{:nc'ty commended him to the Empe- { ror, and he died lately in Vienna, a field- | marshal of the Austrian army.— Youth's | ‘ Companion, ’ i Sk et } A sensible Precaution.

This dire for truthfulness was jnstilled into hheart by the mother whom he loved dotedly, and to whom he was a most taler and respectful son. mce, when he was a little boy, his mher, when bidding him good-night, ated, carelessly, “And did you eat your | bthy” | o her surprise, the boy ran away withi otmaking her any answer; but he quicklyreappearcd, and said “Yes,” with | gnt glee.
