The Sockless Populist Has Designs

LaPorte, Ind., Nov. 13.—A personal
letter received here says that Congres-
man Jerry Simpson, who was defeated
in Kansas last Tuesday, will return to
Indiana and accept the populist nomi-
nation for governor in 1896.
Populist leaders are encouraged to
believe that their large vote means
the overthrow of the republican and
democratic parties in the presidential
campaign.
Mr. Simpson’s early life was passed

His Leg Broken.
This morning about 9 o’clock Joseph
Rapp, a workman employed on the
new opera-house building, fell through
the elevator hole and had his left leg
broken. He was on the third floor and
fell a distance of about 40 feet. Rapp
was at work at the elevator and, by a
mistake, pulled the wrong rope and
the elevator went down. He was taken
to the Sealy hospital by Officer Pur-
cell. The injured man is 30 years of
age and lives on Strand, between Four-
teenth and Fifteenth.
A Seven-Foot Skeleton.
Hudson, Mich., Nov. 13.—There was
unearthed on a farm near here a petri-
fied skeleton of a human being. It was
over seven feet tall and remarkably
well preserved. Some people declare
it must belong to some ancient race
and must be hundreds of years old. It
will be sent to the state university at
Lansing.
The Hunters Were Out.
New York, N. Y., Nov. 13.—Many
sportsmen took advantage cf the second
day of the short hunting season about
Central Islip, L. I. It is estimated
that 20 deer have been brought down.
Several accidents were also reported
the most serious being the shooting of
George Smith of Islip, who was per-
haps fatally injured by Richard Ray-
nor. Smith was creeping through the
underbrush, gun in hand, when Ray-
nor, mistaking him for a deei\ fired
and sent a load of buckshot into Smith’s
body.

Payne will not serve on the America’s

pointed at a meeting of t .,e club last
week. He says:
“I can not give up the time to go to
New York as frequently as I would be
obliged to, and would not be able to
give that attention to the matter that
such important business demands.”
General Payne had been away and
had not seen a copy of Lord Dunraven’s
letter until it was shown to him.
“Lord Dunraven writes a good let-
ter,” he said.
“What do you think of Lord Dunra-
ven’s proposition that the British
champion should meet our champion?”
“Eminently proper. The fastest yacht
in Britain, as shown by actual trials,
should meet ours. It is most important
for both parties that the fastest boats
should meet. You remember the New
York Yacht club agreed > race the
Galatea and Geneva during one year.”
“What do youthink of the request
that all ballast, dead or alive, be on
board when the yachts are measured?”
“The request that the crews be on
board when the measurement is taken
is fair.”
“How about the one-gun start.”
“I do not agree to that.”

On An Even Basis.
JoHet, Ill., Nov. 13.—Judge Linn of
the circuit court has rendered a de-
cision favorable to depositors in the
Stone City bank case, which involves
several hundred thousand dollars. Two
years ago the Joliet Enterprise Wire
company failed and pulled the Stone
City bank down with it. Both of these
firms were run by Henry Fish & Sons,
and the failure was for $500,0C J. The
case was carried into the courts but
every decision was against the depos-
itors of the Stone City bank and they
never received a cent.

A Diptheretic Eye.
Cincinnati, O., Nov. 13.—Dr. Eman-
uel Schwab of Walnut Hills is suffer-
ing with a peculiar affection, resulting
from a peculiar cause. The physician
has, among his patients, one who is
suffering from diptheria. Dr. Schwab,
while visiting this patient, was in the
act of examining the throat when the
patient suddenly coughed. As he did
so a piece of "the mucous from the
throat struck the physician in the eye.
In a few hours one of his eyes began to
burn and become inflamed. He real-
ized at once that the poisoned mucous
had affected the tender lining of the
eye, and when it refused to yield to
simple treatment Dr. Schwab called in
an oculist. An examination developed
that the poison had impregnated the
muscles of the eye and that it is a seri-
ous case.
American Canoe Assoc’atign.
A’bany, N. Y., Nov. 13.—The Amer-
ican Canoe association of the United
States and Canada has been in session
at the Kenmore hotel, it being the an-
nual meeting. Three de1 egates from
each of the four divisions were in at-
tendance. The camp site selected for
next year was Bluff Point, Lake Cham-
plain, in August. An innovation will
be the allo wing of the handicaps.
A dinner was given those attending
the meeting by Commodore Weather-
bee, after which they adjourned to the
Fori Orange club, where they were the
guests of the Mohican Canoe club.
A 16-fc ot red cedar open-paddle boat,
mahogany trimmed, fil’ed with yellow

Crew of a Sinking Schooner Saved
by a Pilot-boat.
Tompkinsville, R. I., Nov. 13.—Pilot-
boat 13 of the Sandy Hook fleet has ar-
rived here with the crew of the w ecked
schooner Kate Richards. The sur-
vivors of the wreck were in a terrible
condition when rescued, having suffered
much from exposure.
The Kate Riehards, Captain John G.
James, sailed from Philadelphia, coal
laden, on Fridaj, November 2, for
Providence, R. I. She had a crew of
five men and a cook. The young wife
of Mate John Crossman was Mso or
board. When the schooner left Dela-
ware breakwater it was the intention
of Captain James to enter the narrow,
and tgo to his destination by way o
Hell Gate. Off Barnegat, as the wind
was fair, the schooner was beaded to
sea for the outside course.
On Sunday night a heavy storm wa:
encountered. A tremendous sea was
running and the little craft was almost
swamped. She sprang a leak and all
hands were constantly at the pumps.
Six terrible days were spent by the
crew in their efforts t > keep the
schooner’s decks above water, and at 8
o’clock Saturday, November 10, the
pilot boat, Williams No. 10 hove in
sight and took the almost exhausted
sailors off. Half an hour later the
Kate Richards went down. The sur-
vivors were cared for here and some of
them have gone to Philadelphia.
gavemotes for $196,000 to purchase wire.
These notes were indorsed by Henry
Fish & Sons as the Stone City bank,
and when it was decided that the Stone
City bank was a savings institution the
depositors pushed then* case to have
the Joliet Enterprise notes set aside,
but Judge Linn’s decision allowed the
indorsement to stand and the Joliet
Enterprise company creditors and de-
positors of the Stone City bank will
her a divorce. This suit by Mr. Neam
was brought quietly almost a year ago.
Tn.e English officer had been trying to
..erve the papers in it for 12 weeks.
The suit makes as co-respondent with
Mrs.. Neam Frank Ellison, who is now
serving a term of five years in Sing
Sing for brutally assaulting Wm. H.
Henriques, Mrs. Neam’s father, “Biff”
Henriques, who. is as well known on
Wall street and about town as any man

Lyons, N. Y.. Nov. 13.—Rochester,
Syracuse, Buffalo and Auburn sports
have been holding them prize fights
and cocking mains in this vicinity for
some time past. In charging the grand

and to those of us who have seen them
growing together in fence-corner and
pasture-land, year after year, happy
under all conditions, it seems an un-
kind thing to use one without the oth-
er. Those who have seen them grow-
ing side by side know that the golden-
rod’s beauty is never so fully appreci-
ated when seen alone. The pale laven-
ders and purple blues of the aster are
just what is needed to bring out the
glowing yellows of the goldenrod most
effectively. A large vase filled with
these flowers is a most pleasing orna-
ment for the corner of a room.
• They should be cut with long
stalks and not enough of them should
be used to crowd individuality out of
sight. The amateur decorator gener-
ally uses twice as much material as is
necessary. In this way half his
material is not only wasted, but it
spoils the effect of the other half, or
rather the effect which might have
been produced with the other half had
it been used alone. It is not the cpian-
tity used so much as the way in which
it is used, that tells. The woman of
perfect taste uses a limited amount of
material in such a manner that she
seems extremely well dressed, while
the woman whose taste is defective,
depends on an excessive use of orna-
ment to produce the effect she aims at,
and she :
It is the same in the use of flowers, or
that wich takes the place of flowers in
schemes of decoration. Do not depend
on quantity, but rather on tasteful ar-
rangement and harmonious combina-
tions.—Ladies’ Home Journal.

The wharves are blocked with cot-

is cotton, cotton everywhere. As fast
as the big iron steamships take the
fleecy staple to foreign ports it is

Chicago, HL, Nov. 13.—Seventeen
big policemen were suspended by In-
spector Schaack at the East Chicago
ayenue station last night. Their in-
difference to the numerous outrages
committed at the polls, culminating in
the murder of Gus Cola-nder election
night, was alleged as the direct cause.
Inspector Schaack has also revised r
Lis force of detect? res on the Colander | y<
case. The men who have been looking
in vain for “Major” S mpson, “Cabby”
Burrs, Kid Murphy and others, are
now in fear for their official heads. It
has been strongly intimated that many
of them will be suspended in a day or
two. It is understood that Inspector
Schaak has obtained authentic informa-
tion that some of his detectives not
only did not attempt to find the mur-
derous gang, but furnished them with
information regarding th ■ movements
of the police.
There were 344 members of the
Union Le jgue who sat at dinner last
night. Having dined, they talked
about election day outrages, and vithin
10 minutes or less made u p a purse of
$400 to help pay for the catching of the
election law violators and the sending
of the same to Joliet. A committee of
five was appointed to carry on the
fight. It was an exceedingly business-
like dinner party. The occas.-on was
a spy cial meeting of the club called to
consider the. crimes and scandals of

Not What They Did, But the Way
They Did It.
New Haven, Conn., Nov. 13.—Ex-
Governor Thomas W. Walter, consul-
general to London during President
Cleveland’s first term, when queried
about the causes which led to the de-
feat of the democratic party last Tues-
day said:
“The people have rebuked the party
not for what the party did but for the
into squads and the squads fell
to fighting and abusing each other as
if •they were contending against
foes and conspirators instead of being-
friends and striving to outdo each
This unseemly spectacle among our
party had a depressing effect upon the
rank and file, for such conduct of the
leaders is as disastrous in politics as it
would be in war. The result was the
political earthquake, cyclone, land-
slide, and Noah’s flood of Tuesday.”
FOR EARLY FALL DECORATION.
Hints Concerning the Tasteful Arrange-
ment of Seasonable Trophies.
In woodland nooks one can find ferns
that grow waist-high, whose green has
given place to palest yellow. These
are very useful if not allowed to re-
main in a warm or dry place after
gathering. Such an atmosphere soon
causes the fronds to curl. If you are
not ready for them when they are
brought in, store them in the cellar
till you want to use them. The once
popular cat-tail will be found very use-
ful for the decoration of corners. But
do not make the mistake of using it in
combination with flowers. It harmon-
izes very well with branches of the
alder or seed-spikes of the sumach.
It is, however, most effective when
used with pampas grass. For early
fall decoration nothing is prettier
or more in harmony with the
season than goldenrod and aster.
These two flowers are sturdy old com*

Haunted by Spirits of Women Who Poi-
soned One Another.
In the midst of all the ruins and
palaces of Italy, stained with countless
deeds of blood, it remains for one mod-
ern structure to be known particularly
as the home of ghosts.
Above Agerola, which itself is almost
directly above Prajano on the southern
side of the peninsula, stands an enor-
mous palace, visible from the sea at a
great distance. It is know as the
Palazzo degdi Spiriti (the palace of the
ghosts), and I once took the trouble to
climb up from Prajano, and go all over
it. It is entirely deserted, and has
neithei* doors nor windows, a building
almost royal in proportions and plan,
standing on a vast terrace overlooking .
the sea, by no means ancient, and in
some parts decorated with frescoes and
stucco work, which are fast falling a
prey to the weather.
It was built by a personage known
as Gen. Avitabile, who came to a tragic
end before he had completed his mag-
nificent residence, and whose heitfs aye,
I believe, still quarreling about the di-
vision of the property, while the build-
ing itself is allowed to fall into ruins.
It would be hopeless to attempt to dis-
entangle the tales told about the fami-
ly by the simple hill folk. There were
women in the case, who poisoned one
another and the general, and whose
spirits, venomous still, are believed to
haunt the vast halls and corridors and
staircases and underground regions of
the palace.
Whether they do or do not, a more
appropriate place for hobgoblins, ban-
shees; ghouls and vampires could
scarcely have been created by a dis-
eased imagination in a nightmare.
Even at midday, under the southern
sun, the*vhole place seems as uncanny
as a graveyard on St. John’s eve. Bits
of staircase lead abruptly into blank
walls, passages end suddenly in the
high air, without window-rajling or
parapet. Lonely balconies lead’ around
dizzy corners to dismal watch-turrets
whence a human voice could hardly
find its way to the halls within. The
most undaunted explorers of the Socie-
ty for Psychical Research might learn
what “goose-flesh” means in such a
place as this.—Marion Crawford, in
Century.

A comical misunderstanding

visitors from the city had brought out
their children with them, and one of
the oldest boys was appointed to
superintend the games and plays of
the little ones. He grew tired of tins,
and finally came into the house, throw-
ing himself on a sofa.
“What'have you done with the other
boys?” inquired his mother.
“Why,” he said, “they’re out in the
barn shooting* crabs.”
“Oh, how cruel,” cried the mother.
“You ought not to shoot those little
things;” whereupon the boy broke into
Homeric laughter.—Louisville Courier-*

sister of the Miss Sorabji who possesses
the distinction of being the only
woman lawyer in India, is now making
a tour of this country, endeavoring to
enlist aid and interest in the hospital

caste Hindoo women. Her father, a
Parsee by birth, is an Episcopal min-
ister at Poonah, near Bombay, and
Miss Sorabji studied medicine at the
medical school at Bombay. She has a

Revolutionary Prisoners jVboard
British Steamer Set Free.
Lima, Peru, Nov. 13.—A correpond- I
ent in Port Supez sends word that
while the British steamer Serena was
in the harbor there she was boarded - UJ
by guerillas, who, after some fighting, W
liberated the revolutionary prisoners ‘ *
confined in the shin and compelled an
officer and five soldiers, representing
the government, to accompany them
ashore. The passengers on board the
ship were in a state of panic for a D
short time, but they were reassured
when they found that no one had been
seriously hurt in the short encounter. X
Captain Vaughan attempted to steam Q*
away before the guerillas had con- JS
chided their work, but lie desisted SSI
when four carbines were levelled at
his head. The government is using
every effort to apprehend the of-
fenders.

WHY THE DEFEAT.
The Aggressive Divine to Be Ten-
dered a Leave of Absence.
New York, N. Y., Nov. 13.—The
congregation of the Madison Square
church have decided to give Dr. Park-,
hurst a leave of absence until January
1. Dr. Parkhurst has been in bad
health for some time. The church
officers say that if ever a rest was
earned, Dr. Parkhurst has earned one.
It is not known, however, whether Dr.
Parkhurst will accept the offer of the
session or not. He has always ex-
pressed the opinion that the church
year was too short at best, and he may
be unwilling to cut it sho- ter.
Dr. Parkhurst is expected back from
Lake wood on November 26 to address
a union meeting of the young men of
New York and Brooklyn churches. On
the next evening, November 27, a din-
ner in his honor will be given under
the auspices of the officers of the
Vigilance league of this city. This
dinner and the meeting at the Madison
Square church on the previous evening
will be of especial interest as being Dr.
Parkhurst’s first reappearance in pub-
lic after the elc ction.
In case Dr. Parkhurst should accept
the offer of a vacation made by the
church session his pulpit will probably
be filled part of the time by well known
ministers of the city and part of the
time by the Rev. D. H. Denison, the
assistant pastor of the church. Mr.
Denison is a Williams college man and
a grandson of Mark Hopkins, the
famous old president of Williams.
