They each brought down six chamois, against four shot by the Imperial guest The expedition yielded five head of big game and thirty-two chamois. Emperor William before leaving Austria presented his host with a splendidly mounted pair of antlers and decorated several of tne huntsmen in attendance.

During three yeara before Waterloo Emperor Napoleon offered large rewards for the recovery of a pocketbook he lest at crossing of Boraeina. After the lapse of more than three quarters of a century it has been discovered in possession of a Russian lady, who received it as a souvenier from Count Felix Ledochovsky. Prince Victor is among the candidates for its purchase.

The excuses for Mr. Parnell's non appearance in Dublin are both melancholy and ludicrous, considering the elaborate fuss which had been raised about his anticipated speech. The real truth is none of Parnell's political associates have been acquainted with his whereabouts ior many weeks past. All of his letters are addressed to the House of Commons and at certain intervals he arrives there without notice, collects his correspondence, writes a few letters and then drifts again to seclusion. vagv

BURIAL OF MRS. BOOTH.

An Immense Proeesalon and Itupres* lire Ceremonies. LONDON, October 14.—The burial of Mrs. Booth to-day presented quite as remarkable spectacle as yesterday's ceremonies, in connection with the transfer of her body to Olympia. The interment took place at Abney Park cemetery, which was filled with an immense assemblage, though admission was by ticket only. The procession from Olympia to the cemetery was fully two miles long and passing through prominent thoroughfares from Black Friars bridge along the Thames enbankment mansion house. Bishop Cate street and the shore attracted an enormous concourse of people. A dense fog prevailed and lent gloom to the scene. The Salvation Army soldiers appeared in full uniform, but in accordance with General Booth's request wore no other mourning than a white band around the right arm. Traffic was entirely interrupted during the passing of the parade. The American flag was carried conspicuously in theprocession as a symbol of friends and relations in America unable to be present The ceremonies at the grave included the Salvation Army songs, prayers and reading of the scriptures. General Booth made an address and himself dismissed the throng with the benediction. sHi -.W A WEALTHY SCION "Wf*-? To be Tried for Terrible Cruelty to

okl mggs&ne or in some way got hold of a jwtloBtM the information and manufacture toe remainder. "The fabfc of the matter is simply this: Diiring the Chicago, Burlington A Quincy strike in October, 1888, the firemen ^Tborrowed $25,839 60 from the ^engineers to tide over the temporary necessities of the order. iSxis money was advanced by the engineers as a voluntary loan but was nofrln the nature of a gift as some misch!^£itiak&fe would have people believe. The debt was paid within a few months nffall and I have the receipt of T. S. Ingfeahm lor the payment of of {he loan in my office. The full p%inent was made February 9, 1889. Wef eel grateful to the engineers for tbe tij^ely assistance rendered and the ofc.|j, F. stands in readiness to reciprocal the favor whenever we may be called apon to do so."

The folmwing from the report of the grand seci^tary and treasurer is self explanatory^

Official ^rcular No. 7 submitted to the membership the question of levying more assessments, which was decided affirmative^, and as a consequence on March 1, JjS9Q, Assessment No. 18 for three ($3.06)iwas levied, which enabled the grand Iddge to pay the men for the month of December and for seven days in January, l889.

The factH^nphamzes the extreme emergencies blithe strike, when it is stated that during we month of October, 1888, the grand officera deemed it prudent to \acicept a loan amounting to $35^9.30 from the" B. of L. E. This amouutenabled the brotherhood to bridge overs financial chasm which the Strike cn$ated,"but the amount borrowed was paid in fall, February 9tb, 1889, to T. 8. IngrabS. F. G. E. of theB. of L. E., and his receipt for the same is in the archives of toe Grand Lodge office.

The Marche^number of the Firemen's Magazine comung «n explanation of tha "exigencies of th^T strike on the C. B. & Q-, money was imperatively demanded to enable our order to respond to the necessities of members gaged in that notable struggle. The _embership was everywhere putting forth its energies to meet the demand, but there was at the time designated, a lack of funds. At this juncture the B. of L. F. accepted a loan amounting to $25,839.60 from the B. of E. "It appears that an impression has gone abroad that the B. of L, E. donated to theB. of L. F. the amount

named.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Such a donation, had it been tendered, would not have been accepted. The transaction was the result of obligations assumed by the B. of L. t. to pay -its membfera certain stipulated amounts monthly, and as assessments had been suspended until the convention met and took action upon the subject, the exigency arose, that money mu#t be borrowed, or the strikin^Jremen on the C., B. & Q. must suffer. money was borrowed, not donated, and the amount so obtained, has been paid back in full. In making payment, interest was tendered but not accepted. "In the foregajig statement the Brothhood has all the facte. The money was borrowed to bridge over an emergency.

It was borrowed to meet pay-rolls promptly and afra time %hen every consideration of justice to the heroic strikers demanded prompt action. The obliga-

tiou to the "men "was met, and now money due the B. of LL. has been paid

in"The

B. bf L. E. is entitled to our

thanks for the timely assistance rendsred. It is folly appreciated, and the B. of L. not less magnanimous, holds ltoeit in readiness to reciprocate the favor at any timei and all times, when it is in its power.

Catching Train* la Chicago.

Chicago's hardest worked people are the ones living in the suburbs. Life to them means just one thing, and that is "to catch a train." A man's business, a woman's shopping, patience, pleasure, pride is built up around that one idea, and everything is sacrificed to ii. Rushing down Lake street Saturday night waa a short, fleshy man and a big round watermelon. The watermelon was carried by a manufactured rope harness, and the scale was about evenly balanced. Sometimes the man was a little the heaviest, and then again the watermelon would swing the man off the ground, but both were in perfect harmony

to the one idea.

While the swinging motion accelerated speed it was a decidedly dangerous thoroughfare for people not governed by this axle in the wheel of life. As the watermelon and the man reached one of those magnificent stone portals that is an index to the grandeur of the depot at the' foot of Lake street the train whistled. The entrance was narrow.

Tomorrow her profusion of blonde hair Will be dyed a raven black while her pinky complexion will be changed to a very dark brown under the manipulation of one of the most noted skin experts of Paris, To such a point does she propose to carry her realism that she has decided to use five snakes in the scene in which she is supposed to die from the bite of a serpent and she has made arrangements with the chief keeper of the forest of Fontaineblou for a regular service of a kind of inoffensive serpent nearly the size and color of the asp, that abounds in that forest She has already four of these reptiles and has been so successful in training them tbat at reheansal they take their cue and attack her at the proper moment She will take over two doxenof the creatures with her to the United States for fear that they may slip through her fingers now ana again. For every one lost, she says, she will cable for two more. Her costumes, some of which were made in Egypt, will fill thirty-eight trunks, while a single hair dresser has an order for heavy rolls of hair such as seen on the Spbynx and other Egyptian statues, and wnich were in vogue the days of the warlike, amorous queen, to the extent of $2,000.

CourxBus, Ohio, October 14.—The Sixty-ninth General Assembly of Ohio convened in special session in the state house, this morning, in response to the call issued on Tuesday last by Governor Campbell. This action of the chief ex ecutive has been rendered necessary by the alleged corruption which has characterized the operations of the board of public improvements of Cincinnati. This board was created by the governor himself, but it is independent of him, *s the law does not give him the power to remove any of its members even for

him to be dishonest. Keemelin refused, and in consequence the governor issued the call for an extra session with the view of abolishing the board and securing the amendment of the law placing the election of successors in the hands of the people. This position he outlined in a short Dut pointed message, which was

A delegation of citizens, including judges, attorneys, bankers, capitalists and merchants, are here to urge the passage of the bill to abolish the entire city government of Cincinnati and substitute a federal form. It is proposed that the head officers shall receive$10,000 annually, and that aboard of control of five members, each with a salary of $7,500, shall constitute the gov ernmg force of the city.

RACE POLITICAL WAR.

Hebrews and Oermana Wnrrinjr Over a Candidate. CHICAGO, October 14th.—The local Republican county campaign is rapidly drifting into an anti-Semitic war, and unless the efforts which are now being made to produce peace and harmony are successful, there will be trouble between the German and Hebrew elements that will make itself felt for years to come. Louis Hntt, a prominent German and an influential Republican politician, is the nominee of that, party for the county treasurership. Some years ago, so it is charged, he allowed himself in a political campaign to use some utterances obnoxious to the followers of the Hebraic faith, although it is not disputed that in the same campaign be voted for at least two members of that race. Nevertheless his own alleged words have now been brought up against him. and in Jewish circles, from thesynagogu down to the store, an active warfare is being waged against him.

Conservative members of both elements are doing their level best to prevent the half extinguished embers of anti-Semitic hate from being fanned into life, but the feeling is strong on both sides, and only election day can determine whether a continuous war of Jews and Germansia to be inaugurated in this city

Protracted diligentce on the part of the police finally triumphed, and the ring leader of the car-breaking gang was found to be be Maurice Reedy, a young scamp who was out of the reform school on parol.

The reputation of this untractable youth waa well known to the authorities and when they went after him they went prepared to get him. In the middle of the night three blue-coats surrounded the house of young Reedy and rapped for admittance. His mother answered, requesting the officers to "wait a minute." They waited, but kept a sharp eye out. Presently a Jjack window was softly raised and Reedy sprang out. He didu't escape, though he jumped in Patrolman O'Donnell's arms.

The officers conducted their prisoners to jail, with great complacency, thinking that the car-breaking annoyance haa been effectually shut off. The next morning Superintendent Carlton, of the reform school, replied to a telegram informing him of Reedy's arrest, that he would be over immediately to take charge of the boy. In the meantime, however, Judge Mack forced himself into the matter and ordered Reedy's release, so tbat when Charlton arrived here he found that his prisoner was not to be had. IIo was a trifio ruffled over the turn affairs had taken, but resolved to bide his time.

Last night Reedy was arrested once more and Assistant Superintendent Roberts, of the reform school, happened to be on hand. While this officer was at the jail to take his prisoner in charge, by virtue of the conditions of the parol on which the latter was originally released, instructions were sent in bv telephone by Judge Mack ordering Reedy's discharge. "I guess not," remarked Mr. Roberts "this is my prisoner and I apprehend that I have the right to hold him. The governor of the state may have authority to take him out of my hands, but I do not believe Judge Mack has such power."

So saying, Mr. Roberts conducted tho self-confessed criminal to the depot and was off with him for Plainfield ere the dawn of to day. This is what might J*4rcalled biminess.

THE WATSON CASE.

It will be Yenned from Vigo Connty at Defendant's Bequest. After the argument for a new trial in the case of the state against James ul/eriX. court, said that be would ask for a continuance of the case on the ground of the absence of one of th»

best witnesses for the defense. This remark was made incidentally but gave every ond to understand that the universal prediction tbat the case would not come to trial on the day for which it was set, was to be verified.

This morning affairs took quite a different turn. Mr. Harper ap^ared in court during the forenoon and filed a motion to venue the case from tho coun-

This action on his part came not in

light of a surprise to persons who hiul given tho subject any consideration. It is a well known fact tbat public sentiment in Terre Haute is decidedly unfavorable to Watson. The crime was committed hero and the people know the dark particuof the deed. It is betteT for Watson—infinitely better—that he be tried anywhere but in Terre Haute. The venue, if granted, will cause further delay, and delay is what the defense is after. Time has a great deal to do with soothing public opinion. It will tend to beget indifference as to the outcome of the trial. The defense appreciates this fact and takes sdvantage of it.

The affidavit for change of venue having been filed Judge Mack granted the same, sending the same to Parke county. It is probably not significant in this connection, butisafact, that Vigo•counts's first murderer venued his ca^e to I arlte county and was banged.
