and bruised about the head. The
cook, J. W, Cullen, had his arm
badly hurt and he was also bodily
hurt. Captain Jack Atkinson
was thrown into the river, sustaining
serious injuries. He was so shocked that
tie could not talk intelligibly. The boat
was owned by Superintendent Conrad, of
St. Louis. The hull sank in five minutes
after the explosion, but was firmly lashed
to barges, which were towed to the Mis

The names are not furnished. The boilers
were carrying but a small pressure of
steam.
Cairo, 111., March 31.—Towboat Polar

BISMARCK’S GKTH BIRTHDAY.
The Imperial Chancellor Showered
with Congratulation* and Flowers.
Berlin, April I.—The celebration to
day of the birthday of Prince Bismarck
was the occasion of no little brilliancy.
Military bands performed national and

William, many ladies of the distinguished
household, officers holding high rank at
court, foreign Ministers and other nota
bles, who showered congratulations upon
the Imperial Chancellor. Many telegrams

were numerous floral offerings which
were displayed in the parlors of the
Prince’s residence.
A CONVICT’S DESPERATION.
His Leap for Liberty Followed by a
Figlit Against Fearful Odfls.
St. Louis, March 31. — At Knobnoster,
nineteen miles west of Sedalia, Mo., to
day, a negro who had had his arm broken
by jumping from a train, was taken to the
house of a colored man near by, where the
fracture was set and the "injured man
given a bed. About to o’clock last night
he arose and began to tire pro
miscuously with his revolver. The
frightened inmates fled. Marshal
Jeff Haitie in attempting to arrest the ■
negro was wounded twice. As the negro
would not leave the house it was Anally
set on fire, but even then lie did not come
out until the timbers began tailing in on
him. Showing himself he was shot twice.
He was then secured. Marshal Haitie is
thought to lie mortally wounded. The
negro came from Crab Orchard, Ky., and
is supposed to be an escaped convict.
Derlnred Common Carrier*.
Chicago, March 31. The Supreme
Court of Illinois, the full bench assenting,
has just tiled its opinion declaring in sub
stance that the Pullman Palace Car Uotn
panv and like corporations arc common
carriers, placing them in the same cate
gory as railroad companies. This
is contrary to the decision given
by the same tiibunal some years
ago and affirms the principles which
the present State Legislature has endeav
ored to embody in a statute, Suit was
brought by Luke Nevin against the car
company for refusing to permit him to
occupy a sleeping berth assigned to him
and which he offered to pay for. The
lower courts decided that ' the plain
tiff had no power to force
accommodations from the ear company,
and that it was optional on its part io
furnish the same. The court asserts that
the running of sleepers lias become a
business of social necessity, and in this
view the Jaw can impose obligations on
the company the same as on railways,
ferrymen amt inn keepers, In the language
of the opinion,
“Where therefore a passenger who under
the rules of tbe company applies for a
berth on payment of the usual fare and to
whom no personal objection attaches,
enters the company’s sleeping car at the
proper time with the purpose of procur
ing accommodation, and in an orderly
and respectlul manner applies for a berth,
offering or tendering the customary price
therefor, the company is bound to furnish
it. provided it lias a vacant one at jts dis
posal. For a breach of any of these im
plied duties the court hold the company
clearly liable.”

ionable Tourist*.
New 3 ork. March 31.—1 tis said by social
philosophers that we travel from the homo
geneous through to the heterogeneous, and
front the heterogeneous up to the homogene
ous again—only, it is first the homogeneous in
its crude forms, and, lastly, the homogeneous
in its highest, most refined and cultivated
modes of expression. Accepting this state
ment, it does not take much study of sociology
to discover that we are in the heterogeneous
stage of development so far as our clothing is
concerned, and that progress must be made
by individuals toward the higher plane and
not expected from the aggregate mass, which
can never give mure than the mean average
result, and is composed largely of elements di
rectly interested in stimulating the produc
tion of a thousand unnecessary accessories to
what we call our civilization.
THE 81'KIXG BONNET.
No better illustration could be found of the
condition of fashion as it exists to-dav than
the grotesque, many colored, hydra shaped
and strangely contrasted spring bonnet. Man
ufacturers of original “straws" are at their
wits end for a* noveltv. The “his
toric past” has been exhausted—that is,
so far as ignorant imitations can exhaust
original ideas—and there is no one who dares,
or who lias enough intelligent knowledge, to
come out and give ns an American shape, an
original and picturesque mode, whose dis
tinction and fitness would win for it respect
and acceptance. At present those who pav
their money may truly take their choice. We
have ttie “scoop” aud the “pointed poke,” the
“gipsy” and tiie “capote,” the “Scotch” bon
net and tiie "Khedive” cap, the “Gainosbor
ougli” and the “Derby,” the “3larie Stuart”
and the simple turban, and a thousand shapes
and gradations between these. We have
straws in every color to match the latest
shades in costume, and we have the all black
or all white which are popularly sup
posed to be suited to auy cos
tume, though tiie authorities discredit this
assertion. We have what are musically
called “symphonies” in color, but which are
merely a confused jumble of color sounds
without clearly defined purpose,and therefore
without harmony.
In the meantime there are Indies who do not
depart from the small bonnet known as the
capote, who find i*. best suited to all purposes,
and who change it only for a shade hat in the
country, or for a moderate and modest scoop
shaped (Hike or small gipsy in traveling, both
of which shade the face and are better adapt
ed to emergencies than tiie quiet and refined,
yet dressy little capote, which frames a deli
cate face most charmingly, and is no obstacle
at the theatre or concert! but does little for
protection against sun or wind. I!ut it was
as “costume ’ bonnets—that is, as bonnets to
match visiting and reception costumes—that
tlicse.prettv headdresses were first, introduced
several years ago, and that they have held
their own and gained rather than lost pres
tige, says miicli iu their favor. In fact, tiiev
have established a position. Tiiev are “dress”
lKinnets. They are the only kind now admit
ted for widows mourning, and tiiev have cre
ated a standard which, even if it is only tem
porary, is still useful for the time being. But
with its form its value as a standard ceases.
It is tiie most “mixed” in material, color anil
trimming of any of the shapes known. Tbe
pointed poke which appeared in Paris two
years ago, and to a limited extent here last
summer, is now numerous, but. excepting the
form, quite simple in its details.
But the * capote makes tip for its
gentleness and severe propriety of shape by
massing upon its small surface the richest
materials and tbe most highly contrasting
colors and devices. Embroidered or elabo
rately beaded crowns are combined with ex
quisite embroidered or landed lace, which is
pleated over a soft foundation of silk, and
covers the brim, while the ornamentation is
obtained from shaded satin or velvet foliage,
in which all the tints of the bonnet aud Its
trimming are introduced. But the majority
do not foliow tiie law of design or harmony.
They are a medley of high colors or ill-assort
ed shades, and bear no relation whatever to
any possible combination in anv sane woman’s
dress. These strictures apply of course to
the bonnets asexhihiled at the average “open
ing,” which arc the kind most frequently seen
upon the street. They iiwv lie copies' from
patterns sent from abroad, for there arc
lKinnets and bonnet*everywhere; that Is, in all
modern and civilized coinniunities,but they are
not of the best class, ami they are not sent
from the best houses in Paris or copied by the
best houses here. The best ami finest bonnets
are already made to match or with special
reference to particular costumes, and some
modistes scarcely make a dress' (not an indoor
morning or evening dress) without sending
its bonnet with it. With a bronze costume
the other day a bronze satin bonnet was sent
home, both trimmed with a beaded passemen
terie, in which amber and ruby wore intro
duced with line effect. The crown of the
bonnet was embroidered to match, and a
group of amber bronze, and ruby ostrich
feathers was placed so n to form a sort of
aigrette. Another was of the new ash
green, in plusli and satin surah, with
beaded and embroidered trimmings, contain
ing all the shades from French bronze to Nile
green. Tbe bonnet was faced with shrimp
pink satin, covered with pleated lace, and the
garniture consisted of a tuft of shrimp pink
feathers and embroidered lace, the embroid
ery executed with shaded green floss and fas
tened witli small gold liins.
A novelty in the white Neapolitan braid is
edged with fine gold or silver cord, which ra
diates in glittering linos from the centre of
the crown and forms a border to the brim,
which is faced with fluted lace or shirred
satin, or both. The trimming is usually some
light and delicate kind of lace arranged en
jabot, fastened with gold or silver pins, and a
group of pale-pink or blue feathers, or a large
spray of blossoms which falls in masses.
Another style of bonnet is tiie pointed poke
in English or satin straw, These are often
trimmed in all-ivory white and gold, or white
and pink, or pink with a little infusion of
delicate blue, or pale blue with a soupeon of
l>ink. They are not very large, and are more
becoming Ilian could be imagined from seeing
them in the hand—especially to an irregular
face. These shapes are seen in colors, in
ecru, apricot, strawberry bronze, and even
in terracotta red, but not in black. The
black straws and chips are mainly found in
three shapes—the capote, the modern scoop
shaped poke, an*l the gipsy. Excepting in
mourning, it is now rare to see an all-black
bonnet. Black straws are very much trimmed
with gold birds and small pompon* in group*
of three and the brims edged with gold card,
narrow gold cord braid or gold embroidered
lace.
PAINTING A Nil EMBROIDERY!
The magnificence of evening and indoor
dressing finds more striking exemplification
every day, since enormous fortunes have in
troduced a style of living which seems to de
mand dress which shall he somewhat in ac
cordance with its luxury and splendor. But
this has at least one good effect—it prevents
the absurdly frequent changes, ff a lady lias
a dress w hose panels of soft thick satin have
each been painted by a great artist, or whose
embroidered front breadths of solid gold can
not lie duplicated, she is not going to throw it
aside after once or twice wearing; hut, in a
way, her robe becomes as famous as her
jewels, and is reserved like them for tiie
grandest occasions.
A beautiful dress worn at a dinner recently
was of the richest pale blue pink satin, the
front breadth embroidered thickly with
silver in a lovely wheat and clover
top design. The train was pleated
and plain, but arranged as a wqtteau. with
side draperies arranged as paniefs and as
surplice folds of embroidered silver gauze.
The dress was low and sleeveless, except a lit
tle veiling of the gauze caught up on the top
of the beautiful arm.. An aigrette of pink
feathers and silver wheat was worn in the
hair, which was arranged high and inclose
irregular puffs and soft curls in front.
Plain trains are now universal, the bunch
ing up of the rich ottoman a tins and bro
caded silks is an act of vandalism that cannot
he liorne, and thus with the richer materials
have come in plainer designs, hut much finer
and more elaborate workmanship. The wat
teau follows in the natural course of events,
and is very graceful when well arranged and
worn by a graceful person. At a brilliant
wedding, recently, a young lady wore a wat
teau dress of pale yellow crape, painted upon
the hack aud in the square front with violets
and lilies of the valley, with extraordinary
delicacy and refinement. The bosom and tops
of the arms were veiled with folds of lovely
old lace, and an amber comb and string o'f
amber beads completed the costume. A young
lady present upon the same occasion
struck and charmed everyone by ! her
beauty and originality. She tjtid a bright,
square, dark face, fagyptiaq in contour. Jpid
those who did not know tier name called her
Salome. Her dress was of dull Indian red
satin, embroidered with gold in an antique
pattern around the bottom and draped close
ly with gold embroidered guaze, which filled
in the square at the neck and covered the
arms nearly to the elbow, liouttd her neck was
a chain of coins, and her hair in front joined
her thick eyebrows. Her arms to the elliows
were covered with dull wrinkled gloves, pale
tan eqtor in shaije- -■ ‘
These beautiful toilets involve more elabo
rate styles of hair dressing, The hair combed
close to the head and arranged in a plain knot
at the back does not admit of much ornamen
tation beyond a comb, aud does not add to
apparent weight or dignity. A more effective
coiffure is required to crown the masterpiece
of the modiste's art, and so the puffs and curls
aud aigrettes are gradually being reinstated.
TRAVELING DREBS.
In the meantime, the young who have not
much can-rejoice that not much is expected of
then.• The riewest sat'iqds, which gho* in
creasing loveliness of design and delicacy of
coloring and shading, are more in harmony
with the blossoming season than the costliest
satins, and youth itself is better than all that
money can bring to age, because it still pos
sesses the priceless gifts of its illusions and its
dreams.
The great charm of spring and summer

dens it. The simple cloth reqingote* ate at*

On the contrary, it adds a suitable warmth to

Incongruous pjastere of coarse pltttm
and _ figured stuffs which • have been
stuck on jackets and ulsters as cuffs and
facings aqd jiockets irrespective of any need
or of any sedse of fitness. Pockets are useful—
plight to be deemed essential tp a street gar-
ment—but with the singular fatuity that
seems to preside over the making of women’s
clothing, we have had a parade of pockets
which were not pockets, and which could not
have been used if they had been, because they
were so inconveniently placed, while the dailv
papers were teeming with accounts o'f
purses and pocketbooks snatched out of the
hands of women iu crowded thoroughfares
because their dress or coat contained no
pocket in which to carry their money.
The absence of unnecessary rubbish in the
way of trimming and mounting, and tiie
presence of a useful and substantial finish in
the way of invisible pockets, fine stitching
and interior facing, mark the difference lie
tween real tailor-made and other cloth gar
ments. It is almostimpossible to get anything
hut the common side skirt-pocket from the or
dinary dressmaker. Even watcliqiockets are
omitted iu nine case* out of ten, or are so
badly arranged that the chatelaine is resorted
to. which like the pocketlxiok in the hand, is
another invitation to the modern thief, who is
a vulgar aud brutal personage, by no means
so gentlemanly or considerate to women as his
ancient prototype.
The doth preferred for suits and redingotes
is soft but smoothly finished anil in fine dark
mixtures, such as hunters or bottle greett,
dregs of wine and brown. For suits alone,
higher and lighter colors are often chosen, hut
they are of the dull ash shades and not so
conspicuous as the reds, blues and purples
were formerly. Only by comparing au old
with anew shade, can one judge of the
enormous advance made of late in the art of
color. \Ve used to talk of “apple” and
“grass” green in reference to bright metallic
shades that were as unlike anv natinral tints
tint as it is possible to conceive, and the wide
distinction between which could only be
measured by comparison with actual grass
and growing fruit. But now there is a nearer
approach to thepuritv.the tenderness and the
depth of natural colors and to the dark
shades which seem to become absorbed hv the
atmosphere—which do not stand out'dis
tinctly and antagonistically from it. and
which are as well worn by men as by women,
and therefore suitable for the neutral ground
which dress should occupy on the street—es
pecially the streets of a great city. The suit
very often consists of a skirt without flounces
or ruffles, hut in which tiie hack is laid in a
wide triple tioxpleat, Ihe sides kilted, anil the
front finished with straight upright folds
stitched on. Over this is worn a straight coat
with a side pocket iuserted diagonally at the
right for the handkerchief and little purse for
fares and an inside pocket for more important
matters. The sleeve is cut up and rounded a
little on the hack and may he worn with or
without a linen cuff. The garment may lie
belted in for tourist’s purposes, and the small
satchel suspended from the side. A cape
may also he added, and. witli a turban,
Scotch cap, or Derby, and a gauze veil, the
outfit is complete. This costume is in some re
spects an improvement on the trimmed skirt
and jacket that preceded it. It is less weighty,
more complete, and much less of a care in
emergencies. A trimmed skirt signifies pleat
ed flounces, drapery at the hack, perhaps
shirring in front and pauierson tiie sides. All
this mass of pleated and folded and bunched
up woolen cloth must he worn in warm or
moist weather, and an ulster added for pro
tection. A plainer skirt which does not flop
about the feet, which is not burdensome, vet
looks well, is a boon, and the well-fitting red
ingote or straight coat over it with a remova
ble cape,.takes away largely the necessity for
an ulster. This costume is specially ’ de-
signed for traveling and service. ’ More
dressy suits for street wear by voung
women who are nothing if not striking and
conspicuous, are made of raspberry red or
gendarme blue cloth, with au inner facing or
vest of white or huff. The vest is cut deep
and only a little of it shows—a mere rim on
either side—not a short vest buttoned over as
formerly. The front will he filled up with a
full skirt of surah, the color of the cloth
gathered or pleated top and bottom and ex
tending three inches below the line of the
waist. These costumes are not. however, to
be wholly or unreasonably condemned. They
are very pretty when well made, and of line
well contrasted materials, and the slight
“IJirectoire” flavor which the cut of the coat,
its collar and facing give to the costume is
heightened by the coquetry of a three-cor
nered hat with tuft of curliug plumes or
clustered pom pons.
AMERICAN Sll.K.
It is not generally known that New Y'ork is
the largest centre of production of American
silk, yet it is true, one manufactory in Forty
second street turning out 5,000 pieces per day.
Of these at the present time not one is what is
known as “plain” black silk. So thoroughly
did ladies become disheartened and discour
aged with the adulterations and deceptions
practiced upon the old gros grain and faille
Bilk that they relinquished them almost en
masse, and the sales ceased to he sufficiently
important to warrant the employment of ma
chinery and force in its production. Besides,
the demand for figured fatiries—damasks anil
brocades, the new ottomans and tiie useful
and inexpensive surahs—became iso great that
all the force was concentrated upon them,
anil the plain silk left to the importer and the
spun silk manufacturer. The principal black
silks therefore are the rich ribbed ottomans,
the armures, and the twilled surahs, some of
the latter being light but close and durable
for linings and foundation skirts, others
satin finished and most serviceable,
as well as most effective, for suits and
costumes, tiarticiilarly for combination with
velvet. There is also an extra quality of
surah, which is suitable for mourning, for
combination with cashmere, and for enduring
costumes. The artnure are also used in
mourning and for combination with fine
black cashmere, hut they rule higher than
surah, even the extra quality, and many pre
fer the surah because or its peculiarly quiet
and unobtrusive character. The ottomans
are of course the richest in black, tiie hand
somest qualities almost surpassing, at least in
fashionable pre-eminence, the expensive
brocades. The choice, however, is
largely a matter of taste. The otto
mans would be preferred for costumes where
only one fabric was used, and looks exceed
ingly well In combination with velvet; hut
the brocades are very appropriate for reception
dresses and for trains with a front of embroid
ered satin, or satin covered w*th embroidered
lace. 31 any of the magnificent brocades in
colors supposed to he imported, are of home
manufacture, and will bear comparison with
any imported silks except in the number of
colors combined in one pattern. Tiie majority
of American brocades are in two “tones,”
hut they are perfectly pure, and sell from $2 50
to $3 retail, whilo the imported goods of the
same class sell for $4 and $5. The colors are
very good, and comprise all the new “art”
shades, which are much softer than the old
purples and garnets and plums and magentas.
Such tints as apricot, crushed strawperry, pale
almond and raspberry red arc wonderfully
tine in the satin finished Ottoman silk,
and though unsuited to the street make beau
tiful dinner and theatre dresses with lace and
a series of diamond ornaments to fasten it, as
is the vogue just now.
But the question with American manufac
turers is how long will fashion In any partic
ular direction InstV It costs a million of dol
lars to put in the machinery and adjust the
forces to supply the demand for anew stvle
like the new damasked figures and brocades,
and the process cannot he repeated too often.
As it is, purchasers have to pay a large profit
liecause of the risk to capital consequent on
the sudden caprices and changes of the mode,
which are neither good, therefore, for buyer
or seller.
REV|VAI, OF MOURNING.
It is rather curipus that the increased em
ployment of color in dress lias created a quite
new interest in mourning for ileeeased rela
tives. For a time, while black was a “uni
form” upon the streets and of course much
worn indoors also, mourning as mourning
perceptibly declined. Only the strictly con
ventional who were in society and who could
afford it, still adhered to tne custom. The
majority conveniently wore their black as
usual, omitted perhaps some of their adorn
ments, but made no other change—a practice
indeed which some still follow who have
more sense than money or time to expend on
the details of their attire, it is a fact, how
ever, that in exclusive circled the very strict
est regard is just now paid to the early depth
and later gradations of mourning toilets. The
widow’s lsninet is a small capote of double
English priqie, the crown plaited or
coni|tosed of cords laid closely to-
? ;cther, the small brim at two li|lc puffings,
leypud which i* a plaiting of crape composed
of three strands, the width of those used in
the crown, braided loosely together, This is
ait. The bonnet is small; all double crape and
entirely free from ornament or trimming of
any kind. Later, say at the end of six months,
a row or more of dull beads and a series of
three dull bead ornaments, the beads the size
of peas, aud devoid of lustre, may be placed
down one side of the brim. Later still, at the
end of twelve months, crape may be discon
tinued and armure silk sub't,i|uted, and the
dull beau ornaments ftululgeil in more pro
fusely, the crown perhaps embroidered with
them. Jet, however, is not worn bv a widow
during the first two years after her 'hnshand’s
death, nor any lace or jewels, except she hap
pens to have single pearls for earrings or soli
taire diamonds in which the setting is not
visible.
Her first dress i- fine Henrietta clotl; with
front or panels of deep htjri|tir and close pan
iers ui orhpe. T4ie lvoddiee is finished with a
collar which also forms a vest of crape. Some
times this is laid in fine folds and is more be
coming in this way, but some modistes consi
der that folds are out of place until three
months have elapsed, anil some use numerous
round cords .trimmed upon thecloth as braids,
anil these make a very neat finish. Crape is
not discontinued until the end of twelve
months, nor until that time car. any white
interior plaiting- be need for iteCk or wrist;
hut crir|ie at the throat is intolerable in sum
mer and black crape lisge a delusion.
Soft sewing silk ue with dull
finish is therefore used for Interior
plaitings, and during the second year white
fine plaitings of India muslin. During the

NEARLY ONE HUNDRED LIVES
TAKEN BY INDIANS.
Terrible Reports Pouring in from All
Quarters of the Terror-Stricken Coun
try—The Troops in Pursuit, and a Bat
tle Imminent—lndignant Citizens Arni
ing for a Merciless Revenge.
Denver, Col., March 31.—The Iri
| bane's Santa Fe special says; “The latest
news from the scene of the' Indian hostlli
‘ ties is that a band of about twenty-five
Indians crossed the Southern Pacific Rail
road near Zepar station early yesterday
morning, closely pursued by Captain For
sythe’s command of two companies of the
Fourth Cavalry. The troops have fresh
horses and a light is hourly expected.
Mexican troops under General Corto are
in the field under orders to take no prison
ers, but to kill bucks, squaws and
children. The casualties in Arizona have
been four men killed at Clark’s camp, four
at Fatal Wreck, four on the Gila river and
two at Beach’s camp. It is believed that
the hostiles belong to Juh's band, and are
reinforced by some 'Chiricuahuas. All
the troops in Southern New Mexico are in
the field, and all possible measures for
the protection of the settlers and the pun
ishment of the Indians are lieing taken hv
Geu. MacKenzie.
San Francisco, March 31.—A gentle
man just returned front Arizona confirms
the report that a secret society exists
among the whites of Arizona to extermi
nate the male Apaches on the San Carlos
reservation and all found roving north of
the frontier. The reservation is looked
upon as a mere refuge for the Indians
where they may retire when hard pressed,
and obtain arms, provisions, etc., for an
other raid.
Tucson, March 31, —The .White Moun
tain tribes openly declare that they will
go on the war path this moon, unless
some definite action is taken by the gov
ernment. It is feared that an organized
body of citizens from Clifton, Globe and
Tombstone will take matters into their
own hands. The San Carlos reservation
people are waiting to give Gen. Cook an
opportunity to act. Twenty-seven people
have iteen killed in nine days. At Her-'
masillo, Mexico,* thirty-two people have
been killed in nine days. The hostiles
are moving tewards Arizona through a
sparsely settled region.
Lokdsbukg, N. M., March 31.—A tele
gram from Separ states that three men
were killed between Separ and Animas
valley yesterday morning. The Indians
came within one mile of Separ on Thurs
day night. Capt, Black and his rangers
are on their trail and a fight may lie ex
pected at any moment. The Indians are,
doubtless, making for old Mexico, and
fears are entertained that they may rdach
there before the rangers can overtake
them.
A DAY IN ATLANTA.
GV■ Boynton’s Canvass, and the Talk
of the Town.
Atlanta, March 31.—Fulton county
goes without opposition for Boynton.
Lowndes and White are also reported for
him. Bacon carries Randolph, and Mc-
Daniel has Putnam.
The trustees of the State University
held a special meeting here to-day, and
Senator Brown put his donation before
them in anew form but under the same
restrictions. An act of 1859, still unre
pealed,and an act of 1881 allow the trustees
to accept any donation of bonds from any
person, and on presentation of the same
by them to the Governor he is obliged to
issue 7 per cent, bonds of the State for
fifty years. This act was to make perma
nent the income of the university.
Congressman Hammond and Bishop
Beckwith made very able and eloquent
speeches in favor, and General Toombs
against the acceptance, but Senator
Brown drew forth and read an old letter
from General Toombs to Colonel Whittle
in favor of just such action by the trus
tees in regard to the Flam Alexander be
quest, The donation was accepted; only
one vote —that of General Toombs—being
cast in opposition, he filing a protest.
Senator Brown promptly paid over $50,000
in Nutting bonds, and thus made sure
his scheme to help the poor
voung men of Georgia to an education
and also to build up the university.
There was a heavy thunderstorm and
rain last night and again to-day, but
pleasant to-night.
A PRIEST IN STRIPES.
Brother Frank’s Outrage Costs Him
Five Years Imprisonment.
Buffalo, N. Y., March 31.—The jury
in the case of Thomas Waldron, better
known as “Brother Frank,” President ot
St. Joseph College, in this city, who has
been on trial for the past six days on a
charge of outrage on the person of a girl
aged six and one-half years, came into
court at 6 o’clock to-night after a delibera
tion of twenty-four hours, and rendered a
verdict of guilty on the second count in
the Indictment of attempted outrage. The
prisoner’s counsel requested a suspension
of sentence until 8 o’clock, which was
granted b.v the court. At that time the court
room and corridors were crowded, and
the prisoner’s counsel made an eloquent
plea in his behalf for mercy. Judge
Haight, in pronouncing sentence, intima
ted that the jury had been pretty merci
ful in the case, and that the parents of
other children had informed hint of simi
lar attempts by the prisoner, and he there
fore sentenced the prisoner to the full ex
tent of the law—five years in Auburn
prison—except that he might have added
a fine. The case has excited unusual in
terest, both here and elsewhere, as “Broth
er Frank” has held similar positions in
other places, including New York.

noon while boats were making up their
tows w T ith coal for shipment South thirty
nine barges belonging to Joseph Walton

accounts the portion of the fleet which
esuaped sinking were pretty well down
the Ohio rivor. The loss is $50,000.

asWie person who might be entrusted
with any post of duty. At Flanagan’s
lodgings a variety of explosives were dis
covered, besides revolvers, false beards
and other equipments for a dynamite war

evidence given during the examination
was that of expert scientific witnesses,
who testified that the explosive material
in question was known as “Lignere dyna
mite,an article that could not by any
possibility' he connected with commercial
or business transactions, ami which was
