The Wildwood Orange Leaf says: “The
Seminole Indians still remaining in Florida
number in all about 600 souls. They inhabit
the extreme southern part of the peninsula,
and are divided into live bands,which are to
lie found ou the Miami river, in the Big Cy
press swamp, on F isli-eating creek, on Cow
creek and in the Fort Gardiner hummock.
These Seminoles are full-blooded Indians, all
storiesof their infusion ol negro Mood to the
contrary, and the men, tall, straight and
handsomely formed, are as tine specimens of

The Key West Key of the Gulf of December

Enrique Martinez and Francisco Olofeo, both
Cubans, when the latter drew a pistol and
shot the former through the hotly, which ter
minated filially in six hours. * Olofeo was
arrested aud carried to jail. So great was
the excitement against the prisoner that the
Sheriff and others feared an attempt at lynch
ing. Better councils prevailed, however, and
the prisoner is unable to procure bonds. He
will 1* tried at the next Circuit Court in this
county for murder.”
At Brooksville, Friday evening, Duncan
Morrison, who was confined in jail, charged
with the murder of his mother-in-law, Mrs.
Mattie Mickle, made his escape and left for
parts unknown. On the night the F'agan ne
groes were killed Morrison was conllned in
the same cell with them. On the next day
he was removed to the front part of the jail
in order that his cell might he cleaned. Fri
day night he was to have been replaced in his
old quarters, but escaped while the jailer was
at supper. Deleft a note in his cell stating
that he would return at the March term ot
the Circuit Court and stand his trial.
The Matlison -Vine Era says: “From the
Economist we learn that ('apt.‘Daly T. Block

work so much has been said, have not reclaim
ed one foot of overflowed land, though thev
have received grants for 430,000 acres, on the
score of drainage claimed to have been done
by them. Verily, it makes a big difference
with the ruling powers whether one is a poor
man, or a rich company. If the former, he ran
buy himself a small pi<ce of land for twen /-
live cents an acre; but if the latter it can not
only buy land at that price, in large quantities
for purposes of speculation but impose on the
wise men tit Tallahassee and procure it for
nothing. Ar these things Democratic?”

years in Florida, Air. and Airs. Pickering

shortly after that time they settled at
Mandarin, where they lived ’till after the
‘late unpleasantness.' They were British
subjects, having emigrated in early life to this
country from England, and during the war
they saved themselves several times, when
Northern cruisers came along, by hoisting the
British Cnion Jack, which was always re
spected. In 1563 Air. Pickering sold his place
to Airs. Harriet Beecher Stowe; his grove
having thus received a continental reputation.
Eighteen years ago they settled in Flast Jack

sively there ever since. Airs. Pickering was
greatly beloved by those who knew her inti

Bill Nye Throw for the Capper.
Bill Nye: “Did you get into the side
show?” 1 asked of the countryman at
Greeley, Col.
“No, sir. I studied the oil paintings on
the outside, but I dqln’t go in. I met a
haudsome-looking man there near the side
show, though, that seemed to take an in
terest in me. There was a lottery along
with the show aud he wanted me to go
and throw for him.”
“Capper, probably ?”
“Perhaps so. Anyhow he gave ntesl
and told me to go and throw for him.”
“Why didn’t he throw for himself?”
“O, he said the lottervman knew him
and wouldn’t let him throw.”
“Of course. Same old story. He saw
you were a greenev and got you to throw
for him. He stood in with the game, so
that you drew a big prize for the capper,
created a big excitement, and you and the
crowd sailed in and lost all the money you
had. Pll bet he was a man with a velvet
coat and a moustache dyed a dead black
and waxed as sharp as a cambric needle.”
“Yes; that’s his description to a dot. I
wonder if he really did that a-purpose.”
“Tell us about it.”
“I’ll tell you how it was if It’ll do any
good and save other young men in the
future. You see. this capper, as you call
him, gave me a $1 bill to throw for him.
and 1 put it into my vest pockttkso, along
with the $1 bill that father gave me. 1
always carry my money in ray right-hand
vest pocket. Wall. I sailed up to the
game, big as old Jumbo himself, and put
a dollar into the game. As you say, I
drawetl a big prize—s2o and a silver cup.
The man offered me $5 for the cup aud I
took it.
“Theu it flashed over my mind that I
might have got my dollar and the other
feller's mixed, so I says to the proprietor,
I will now invest a dollar tor a gent who
asked me to draw for him.
“Thereupon I took out the other dollar,
and I'll be eternally chastised if I didn’t
draw a brass locket worth about two bits
a bushel.”
I did uot say anything (or a long time.
Then 1 asked him how the capper acted
when he got his brass locket.
“Well, he seemed pained and grieved
about something, and he asked me if I
hadn't time to go away iuto a quiet place
where we could talk it over by ourselves,
but he had a kind of a cruel, insincere
look in his eye, and I said no, I believe I
didn’t care to, and that I was a poor con
versationalist anyhow, and so I came
away and left him looking at his bi’ass
locket and kicking holes in the ground
and using profane language.
“Afterward I saw him talking with the
proprietor of the lottery and I feel some
how that they had lost confidence in me.
I heard them speak of me iu a jeering tone
of voice, and cue said as 1 passed by:
•There goes the meek-eyed rural convict
now,’ and he used a horrid oath at the
same time.

of the' demented Patrician. All Mr. Me-

through the body of the house, which took

NEW YEAR’S RECEPTIONS.
PRESIDENT ARTHURS EMI
NENTLY SUCCESSFUL.
The Executive Alanvion Redolent with
Flowers and Exotics—The Entry of
the Host and HU Assistants The
Guests Who Paid their Respects—The
Day at Other Places.
Washington, Jan. I.—The ceremonial
observance of the first day of the new
year in this city was interfered with to
some extent by a raw northwest wind and
by a drizzling rain, which fell at intervals
throughout the afternoon and evening.
There was, howeyer, a very general ob
servance of the custom of making New
Year’s calls, and it is said that there were
more “open houses” than usual. The
President’s reception at the Executive
Mansion was not quite as largely attended
as on similar occasions in the past,
but is said to have been more than usually
pleasant and successful. Only about half
of the members of the present Congress
are in the city, but most of these were
present, together with the members of the
Cabinet, diplomatic corps. Justices of the
Federal and District Courts, and officers
of the army and navy. The attendance
of the people of the city aud the District
generally was fairly good, and nothing
occurred to mar tho pleasure of the par
ticipants.
The decorations of the Executive Man
sion were simple but tasteful. Ferns,
palms and cut flowers from the White
House conservatory were placed in the
three parlors. The great East room and
the main corridors, and mirrors and large
glass chandeliers, which were lighted,
were hung with graceful festoons or
smilax. There were potted plants,
such as begonias and primroses, blooming
in the East room. A huge bouquet of se
lected cut flowers was placed in the lied
parlor and another larger ornamented the
central divan of the Blue room. Promptly
at 11 o’clock the Marine Band, which was
stationed in the vestibule, played “Hail
to the Chief.” and as the lirst notes were
sounded President Arthur,accompanied by
Mrs. Carlisle, and preceded by Col. Rock
well and Marshal McMicbael, entered the
corridor. They were followed by the
members of the Cabinet with their "wives
and a number of ladies without escorts
who were to assist in the reception. The
party passed into the Red parlor and
thence into the Blue room, l’resident Ar
thur stood midway between the east and
west doors. On his right and behind
him were the ladies assisting, and on his
left during the reception of the diplomatic
corps stood the Secretary of State. Both
the President’s son and daughter were in
the room. It was generally remarked
that the costumes of the ladies were
richer than Vtd been seen at
the White House receptions in many
years. The members of the
diplomatic corps in the court dresses
ot their respective countries were first
received, and were introduced by Secre
tary Frelinghuysen. The band played
the national airs ot the principal Euro
pean countries as the foreign ministers
passed through the Blue room into the
East room, where they remained greeting
and talking with other guests until 12
o’clock. At that hour they took their
leave, and went to breakfast at the resi
dence of the Secretary of State. The Jus
tices of the United States Supreme Court
and their wives were next received, after
which Col. Rockwell and Marshal Me-
Micliael took their place beside the Presi
dent and introduced to him a large num
ber of Senators aud Representatives At
12 o’clock the doors leeading into the main
corridor were thrown open, and a long
line of army and navy officers
filed in to pay their respects
to the President. Gen. Sheridan, who
occupied the position tor many years filled
by Gen. Sherman, was accompanied by
Judge Holt and Gen. McKee Dunn, for
merly Judge Advocate General of tne
army, and by the officers of his staff.
Adjutant General Drum followed, accom
panied by Assistant Adjutants Gen. Mc-
Keever, Gen. Ruggles, Col. Benjamin and
Col. Barber. Then came in order nearly
all the army officers stationed in Wash
ington. both of the line and staff.
Following the long line of army officers
came representatives of the navy, with
Admiral Porter at their head, accom
panied by Commodore Earlengiish and
followed by almost every naval officer at
present in Washington. The army officers
were introduced to the President by Col.
Rockwell. Lieutenant Mason presented
the naval officers to Col. Rockwell who in
turn introduced them to the President.
In the East room the army and navy
uniforms showed to great advantage, anil
the scene was a very brilliant one, as a
number of diplomatic representatives
were still in the room, as were also many
handsomely dressed ladies. The assistant
secretaries of the departments and the
chiefs of the bureaus were next received,
and were followed by the veterans of the
Mexican war and the war of 1812, repre
sentatives of the Grand Army of the Re
public, the Oldest Inhabitants Associa
tion and the citizens generally. Through
out the entire reception President Arthur
retained his position without a moment’s
rest. He greeted those with whom
ho was acquainted with a pleasant smile,
and a lew words of recognition. The
strangers he merely wished a happy New
Year. At the close’ of the reception lie re
tired to his private apartments.
FRKLINGHUYSEN’S BREAKFAST.
The state breakfast given by Secretary
Frelinghuysen to the members of the
diplomatic corps and their wives was
served promptly at 12 o’clock. Accord
ing to a time-honored custom the table
was handsomely garnished as for a large
formal luncheon, and was lighted by wax
candles in twisted silver candelabra’s. In
the centre of the table was a large round
plate glass plaque, bound in silver, repre
senting a mimic lake, around, and out of
which seemed to be growing roses,
maiden hair ferns, and scarlet leaves.
What attracted universal attention so soon
as its history became known was a small
odd appearing silver sugar bowl fashioned
by skilled Danish workmen more than
two centuries since. The bowl, cylindri
cal in form and supported by tour large
cannon balls of silver, was sent as a
Christmas present to Mrs. Frelinghuysen
troin her friends, Mr. and Mrs. lioffman,
now representing America at the court of
Denmark. The general reception which
always follows the state breakfast began
at 1:30 o’clock. .Mrs. Frelinghuysen was
assisted by her daughters, Miss Freling
huysen and Lucy Frelinghuysen, and
Miss Griswold, of Dresden, Saxony, a
niece of the hostess, and Miss Carrie
Bradley, daughter of Justice Bradley, of
the United States Supreme Court. The
number of callers was unusually large.
AT SECRATARY LINCOLN’S.
At the home of the Secretary of War
Mrs. Lincoln was assisted by Mrs. Sena
tor Cullom, Miss Cuiiom, Mrs. Frank
Hatton and Miss Ella Sturgess. A large
number of the callers were army officers.
AT SECRETARY .CHANDLER’S.
Mrs. Chandler and her sister, Mrs. Kins
ley, at the home of the Secretary of the
Navy, received a large number of repre
sentatives of the army, navy and Con
gress,
RECEPTIONS AT OTHER HOUSES.
The reception in the parlors of the Sec
retary of the Interior was cordial and un
ostentatious. Mrs. Teller was assisted
by Mrs. M. D. Thatcher and Mrs. J. W.

IN NEW YORK.
New Y’ork, Jan. I.—New Y’ear’s day
was observed in New Y’ork and Brooklyn
in the usual manner, by a general suspen
sion of business and the -closing of all
public offices, excepting the Police Court,
which, during the morning hours, did
more than the ordinary amount of work.
In New York the custom of making New
Year’s calls appears to be gradually
dying out, and to-day many of the up
*owu avenues were comparatively

deserted, although it was announced that
an unusually large number of ladies
were receiving.
IN BROOKLYN
the time honored custom was more gen
erally observed. The unfavorable condi
tion of the weather no doubt prevented
many from calling. Several charitable
institutions gave receptions.
AT PHILADEPHIA.
Philadelphia, Jan. I.—New Years’
day was very generally observed here.
The business centre of the city presented
a holiday appearance, the stores and of
fices being generally closed. With a few
exceptions the wholesale houses did not
open, and this was also true of the banks,
insurance and brokers’ offices. None of
the national, State or city depart
ments did any business, closing
over from yesterday until Wednesday.
Notwithstanding the inclement weather,
Chestnut street in front of the
State House, this morning from about 10
o’clock until long after the noon hour,
presented a scene of fun and frolic.
Bands of masqueraders in all sorts of
grotesque costumes, accompanied by
bands of music, paraded the streets. This
evening the new wigwam for the great
council of Red Men was dedicated. The
several tribes of this city and tribes from
New Jersey paraded through the prin
cipal streets, receiving a marching salute
as they passed the wigwam.
THE DAY IN BALTIMORE.
Baltimore, Jan. I.—New Year’s has
been cheerless. A cold east wind and
drizzling rain prevailed all day, seriously
interfering with the usual calls, and the
streets were as disagreeable as they well
could be. All business was suspended,
and the Catholic churches had services
appropriate to the occasion. There were
comparatively few people on the streets,
and the day ended as it began, with the
streets deserted.
PRESIDENT GREVY’S RECEPTION.
Paris, Jan. I.—President Grevy held
the customary New Year’s reception at
the Eiysee. The Papal Nuncio, who was
present at the reception, together with all
the other members of the diplomatic body,
expressed, on behalf of the foreign repre
sentatives, the good wishes entertained
for France and for M. Grevy personally.
The President, in reply, expressed the
highest esteem and sympathy which he
felt toward the diplomatic body.
IN BERLIN.
Berlin, Jan. I.—At the New Year’s

RIOTING AT DKOMORE.
Dot It Orangemen anil Nationalists Hold
Meetings Simultaneously.
Dromore, Jan. 1, 3:30 p. M.— Meetings
of both Nationalists and Orangemen are
being held. Twenty thousand people are
in attendance at the meeting of the Or
angemen.
Dromore, Jan. 1, 9 r. m. —The Orange
meeting was held within sight of the Na
tionalist gathering. The Nationalists
inarched front the Catholic chapel. Ail the
Magistrates of the county are here. There
is great excitement among the populace.
T. p. Sullivan and W. O’Brien, mem
bers of Parliament, who are also members
of the organizing committee of the Na
tional League, are directing the
movements of the Nationalists.
Three Nationalist bandsmen have
been arrested for carrying revolvers
in military order. An encounter occurred
between the Nationalists from Trillick, a
town not far from Decemero, and an
Orange procession. The Orangemen
charged the Nationalists but the military
interfered and afterward proceeded to
clear the ,streets.
Even this force was hardly able .o prevent
a collision. The Nationalist meeting was
attended by about 2,000 persons. The usual
speeches supporting the objects of the
League were delivered. When the meet
ings were breaking up in the evening
several attempts were made to attack
each other, but the lancers, hussars, in
fantry and police prevented se
rious disorders. In an attempt
of the troops to disperse the
crowds, a young man named McGivan
was wounded in the abdomen with a bay
onet, and it is expected that he will die.
Another man was seriouslv wounded.
Great confusion prevailed at the railway
station while the various delegations were
boarding the trains by which they were
to return to their homes. The Orangemen
sang “God Save the Queen,” “Rule Bri
tannia” and other patriotic songs, and
gave three cheers for Queen Victoria and
the troops.
Dromore, Jan. 2, 1 a. m.—The Orange
meeting was held in a field close to Dro
more. About 20,000 persons were pres
ent. Col. Stuart Knox presided. lie ac
cused the government of endeavoring to
obtain the Farnellite vote by prohibiting
loyal and allowing Parnellite meet
ings. Resolutions were passed op
posing the extension of the fran
chise in Ireland, condemning
the action of the government in allowing
seditious meetings in Ulster, opposing
home rule in Ireland, and indorsingLord
ltossmore’s action at Rossleau. Among
the speakers were Lord George Hamil
ton, Lord Cloud Hamilton, Maj. Hamilton
and Lord Caledon.
The Nationalist meeting was held in a
field at the opposite etui of the town. The
rival patties were kept apart bv large
bodies of cavalry, infantry and police. ’
Dublin, Jan. 2. 2:30 a. m.— After the
close of the meeting, despite the efforts of
the magistrate, the Orangemen, by a de
tour across the fields, came within a short
distance of the Nationalists. A serious
tight was waged between the two parties
for some time, during which the cavalry
and infantry charged several times. Re
volver shots were exchanged, stones were
.thrown, and sticks were freelr used. The
fight ended only after the Hussars ami
Lancers had charged across the field and
wounded a number of the Orangemen.
The infantry, with fixed bayonets, escort
ed the Nationalists beyond the reach of
the Orangemen.
London, Jan. I.—A dispatch from
Dromore says that a tremendous riot oc
curred there, and that several men have
been stabbed.

Jackson, Miss., Jan. I.—Fritz Holder,
who was wounded in the affray at
City on Christmas eve, died'last night.
Mr. Holder had been County Treasurer
for the past four years and a’laithful offi

IN A DRUNKEN FRENZY.
Galveston, Tex., Jan. I.—A San An
tonio special says: “Henry Ilatte, a well
to-do German, in a drunken, jealous
frenzy last night attempted to brain his
wife with an axe. He cut two fearful
gashes in her cheek and arm. He then
went into the kitchen and blew his own
braius out.”
Mr. Buckner and the Banks.
A\ ashington, Jan. I.—Representative
Buckner, Chairman of the llous= Commit
tee on Banking and Currency, said to a
reporter to-day, in reply to questions con
cerning the bills which he is reported to
be preparing: “I am not preparing any
bill which is intended to meet the emerg
ency that confronts us by the ls3 te of
Treasury notes, but 1 shall not propose
any legislation without first consulting
the national banks. They shall ua’e a
hearing before the Banking and Currency
Committee. 1 understand the Banker's
Convention, recently in session at Louis
ville, appointed a committee on this sub
ject, and 1 am anxious to hear what they
have to propose. If the national banks
have any plan to avoid the contraction ot
the currency I for one am willing to give
it a hearltur.and if it lully meets the case
to accept it. So far they have not pro
posed anything,and as legislation is neces
sary I have prepared a bill which I be
lieve will prevent any trouble. lam not
wedded to it, however, if anything better
can be suggested.”
It is a fact which can be proven by a
single trial, that the flavor given to cakes,
puddings,creams and sauces by Dr. Price’s
Special Flavoring Extracts, are as natu
ral as the fruit frern which they are made.
Dr. Price’s for cream, cakes, etc , are as
much unlike, in delicate flavor and
strength; the cheap extracts, as can pos
sibly be imagined.

Correspondence of the Morning Eexcs.
Washington, Dec. 30.—The Foreign Affairs
Committee for the last House considered very
fully the subject of government aid in the
construction of a canal across the isthmus at
Nicaragua. The majority of the committee
was in favor of the scheme, and made a favor
able report to the House upon what is known
as the Nicaragua canal bill. Mr. Blount, of
Georgia, Mr. Perry Belmont, of New
York, and several other members of
the committee were opposed to the bill.
Mr. Blount was designated to write the
minority report. He was given sixty days
af’er adjournment to write and file that re
port. Mr. Blount went home and took much
data with him. He was in no hurry to com
plete the duty assigned him. He went at the
work leisurely, lie got through long before
the time allotted him. He sent copies of his
reports to his minority colleagues on the For
eign Affairs Committee. He requested Mr.
Belmont after he had examined the copv sent
that gentleman, to file it before the 60 days
should have expired. Mr. Belmont gave
Mr. Blount’s report to several of the New
York papers, in which it was published. Mr.
Belmont added to Mr. Blount’s report a num
ber of pages. These pages contained some
general information on" the subject of inter
oceanic canal communication through Die
isthmus. Ho used the whole as his own re
port. Mr. Blount’s report was not tiled within
the sixty days. His work went for nothing as
far as lie individually was concerned.
A GOOD DEAL OF INTEREST
is taken among members of Congress who3C
constituencies are interested in coastwise
commerce in a hill introduced in the Senate
bv Mr. McPherson, of New Jersey. Senator
McPherson says that he is going to do all in
his power to secure the passage of the bill or
similar legislation. The object of the bill is
to prevent collisions among vessels
trading along the coast. The bill sets
forth that there is great carelessness
among the masters of small coastwise
vessels iu the management of their lights.
They frequently fail to display the red light on
the port side and the greeu light on the star
board side, or use such poor lamps or so
improperly place them that there is constant
danger of collisions especially with the coast
wise steamers. Another tiling alleged against
the smaller vessels is that they do not, when
they see a steamer overhauling them,display a
torch over tho stern. They are also negligent in
sounding fog horns when necessary. The bill
directs that the Treasury Department issue
stringent rules upon this subject with power
to enforce them. A penalty of SSOO for tlie
owner or owners of derelict vessels which
may be libelled is prescribed, and also im
prisonment for one year for the officer of the
vessel.responsible for non-conformity with the
provisions of the bill. There is also a pro
vision in the bill for rewarding informers.
THE PROTECTIONIST BARONS
aud their representatives in Congress are
evidently becoming a good deal alarmed over
their prospects. The Ways and Means Com
mittee is made up conservatively, but witli a
free swing for tariff reform. ’ That such
would be the nature of that committee the
barons expected. But they said: “We don’t
care what kind of a Ways and Means Coni
mitteee it is” (they fought hard enough to
Keep Carlisle otitcf tlie chair, however) “We
are all right. The Senate is perfectly safe.”
What now- alarms them is that the Senate is
evidently not so safe as they thought. They
arc a busy lot of men these protectionists, and
they have vigilaut agents here all the while.
These agenis have been very carefully look
ing around, and they do not view with com
placency what they’have found out. They
tluil that while the Republican majority of
the Senate is not favorable to any radical
reduction of tlie tariff, yet it is not
as hide-bound as they thought it was.
There are several Senators upon whom they
had looked as “for us all the time,” who are
not so unanimous that way. Senators as well
as other people can be affected by a dec ara
iion of the views of the people at the polls.
The leaven of reform which was sown in such
quantities in the last Congressional election
lias worked even upon the Senatorial mind.
It has no. worked to any overwhelming effect,
hut it has left its * mark. That’s tlie
reason tlie high protectionists do not
feel as well as they did. It should
also be remembered in’this connection that
the Senate bill prepared at tlie last session
was much better for the public good than the
lull prepared bv the House Ways and Means
Committee, which met such a tragic death at
the latter part of the session.
MR. JAMES ATKINS, OF SAVANNAH,
was nominated for the United States District
Judgeship now held by Judge McCay. His
nomination was withdrawn by President
Arthur, at the request of Mr. Atkins. Mr.
Atkins would not have w ithdrawn iiad he not
seen that it was practicably impossible for
iiint to be confirmed. Mr. Atkins will,
it is learned, very likely lie a strong
candidate to sncceed Judge Erskine.
It is understood that Mr. Farrow
will throw his strength for him when he sees
that he cannot make tlie goal himself. He
might as well throw his influence for him now.
F’arrow was an applicant for Judge McCay’s
place too. Tlie appointing power said at that
time “under no circumstances shall Farrow
get the place.” If there lias been any change
of heart there is not the slightest evidence of
it. Atkins is stronger now- with the
Senate than lie was when formerly nomi
nated. Senator Edmunds, Chairman of
the Judiciary Committee, which will report
upon the nominee,, whoever he is, is now for
him. Edmunds is something of a power in
the Senate. However, there is no indication
pointing directly to the coming Judge. Tlie
President is eajoying tlie holidays and the At
torney General is in Louisiana’ looking after
the lottery cases. The matter lias never I icon
taken up yet by them. The President moves
slowly in making appointments, and is espe
cially tortoise-like when a vacant Federal of
tice in Georgia comes within view.
REPRESENTATIVE BLACKBURN TOLD ME TO
DAY
a characteristic anecdote of Senator Cerro
Gordo Williams, of Kentucky. Williams is
one of tlie mospt ompanionable and genial of
men. When he came to the Senate he was for
knowing all of his colleagues right away. He
wanted to be ou pleasant terms with them all.
He had been here but three or four days be
fore lie had met them nearly all, and had in
vited many of them ’to dine with
him. He had not, however, met
ex-Senator Conklins, of New York,
who had been absent in New York. Tlie day
that Conkling returned to his seat Williams
was in the cloak room of the Senate just as
that body had adjourned.
Conkiiug came in and was putting on his
overcoat. Williams walked up to him, aud,
holding out his hand, said: “I am glad to meet
you. Air. Conkling.” He was about to add an
explanation, telling who lie was, but Conk
iiug turned his back upon him and walked
away. Senator Vest, of Missouri, had come
in and witnessed the latter part of tile scene.
Turning to him, Williams said: “I wonder if
that d—d Albino wanted to insult me.” It
must be remembered that Conkling is a blonde
of a peculiar type. Conkling afterwards ex
plained that he did not know who Williams
was; he took him to be one of the indissrimi
uates who rush upon the floor of each House
as soon as an adjournment is had. Williams
and Conkling afterwards became good friends.

Tobacconists Seeking Protection.
Hartford, Jan. I.—About 150 tobacco
growers, representing tbe New England
States, met in convention in this city to
day to further protest against tbe recent
decision of the Secretary of the Treasury
whereby wrapper leaf tobacco is virtual
ly admitted at the rate of 35 cents per
pound, thus evading the intent and spirit
of the law. Several addresses have been
made against the admission of Sumatra
tobacco at the minimum duty. A resolu
tion was passed appealing to the Secreta
ry of the Treasury to give further consid
eration to the matter and to so frame his
decision that the Jaw may protect our do
mestic agricultural industries as the spir
it of the law intended. At 3 o’clock it
was resolved to appoint a committee to

TRANSPORTING THE MAILS.
The Committee Makes its Recommen
dations on the Basis for Pay.
Washington, Jan. I. —The Postmaster
General has sent to Congress the report
of the committee appointed under the pro
visions of the act passed last March to
prepare an improved plan of carrying the
mails on railroad routes. The committee
was composed of Richard A. Elmer, Sec
ond Assistant Postmaster General W. B.
Thompson, General Sujierintendont of the
Railway Nail Service, and Isaac C.Slater,
Superintendent of Railway Adjustment.
The report describes the operations of the
committee in detail, and sets lorth the
sources of information and the reasons
for each of its recommendations. The
lollowing are the committee’s reconi
mendatisns:
“The Committee would, in conclusion
respectfully recommend as follows.
First. That compensation to railroads
for carrying mails shall be determined
upon the basis of space used and the fre
quency and speed with which the malls
are conveyed.
Second. That the space factor shall be
determined by the Postmaster General in
view of the needs of the service, modified
by the weight aim the frequency of the
mails; that the speed factor shall be de
termined by the schedule of the various
railroads iu connection with the official
reports of the Railway Mail Service.
Third. That the pay for all mail trans
portation shall hereafter be at a fixed rate
per linear foot of car per mile run. this
rate to cover the entire cost of the service,
furniture aud fixtures in the car, the
transportation of clerks, etc.
Fourth. That the Postmaster General
may at any time order an increase
or reduction in the amount of
space to be paid for. If alter
weighing it be found that there has been
a sufficient increase or diminution in the
amount of mails transported on any rail
road to require the same.
Fifth. Closed or pouch mails now car
ried iu express or baggage cars without
postal clerks accompanying them, requir
ing no space for distribution en route,
shall be paid for on the following basis,
viz.: Tbe aggregate weight of the closed
or pouch mails carried on any road on all
trains for 24 hours shall be made the basis
of pay, and this aggregate weight reduced
to an equivalent in linear feet of car
space in the lollowing proportions:
2tJO pounds of mail or less shall be rated
as the equivalent of six linear inches, to
be paid for at the rate ot 5 mills per linear
foot per mile run; 500 pounds of mail shall
be rated as one linear foot, and for each
additional 500 pounds one linear foot of
car space shall be allowed, with the pro
viso that the pay for transportation of the
mails upon any railroad route for six
round trips per week shall not be less than
$35 per mile per annum.
Sixth. That the side service be discon
tinued.
Seventh. That the pay for railway post
offices at a speed of 20 or less miles per
hour between the termini be 5 mills per
linear foot, inside measurement of the car
space, per mile run. For each increase
of speed amounting to 2 miles per hour up
to and including 30 miles per hour, one
tenth ot a mill, i. e. 22 miles per hour, 5.1
mills; 24 miles per hour, 5.2 mills; 2(5
miles per hour, 5.3 mills; 28 milds pet
hour, 5.4 mills; 30 miles per hour, 5.5
mills, and for each additional mile per
hour 1-10 of a mill. And it is further rec
ommended that in the adjustment of the
space by the linear foot for railway post
offices, a daily average weight ot
50*) pounds ’of mail or ” less
shall be entitled to pay for space not to
exceed 13 feet; from 500 to 1,000 pounds,
space not to exceed 15 feet; from 1,000 to
2,000 pounds, space not to exceed 25 feet;
from 2,000 to 4,000 pounds, space not to
exceed 40 feet. And we recommend that
no change in the allotment of space shall
be made until the average weight reaches
6,000 pounds. For 0,000 pounds 50 feet
8,000 pounds 60 feet—the weight to be as
certained by weighing of not less than 30
consecutive days, and no additional space
shall lie paid for unless it is found to be
necessary. In all railway post offices the
load should not exceed double
the greatest weight specified
for the respective lengths, and for any
gross weight carried on two or more
trains daily, space may be subdivided
upon gradients of space for the lower
weights, as the nature of the service may
require; with the further provision that
that the Postmaster General may increase
the compensation upon any railroad
route, but not to exceed 50 per cent, per
annum, for special mail trains perform
ing services upon schedules fixed by him.
In all thesse estimates tbe minimum car
width should be fixed at 8 feet 6 inches,
inside uieausement.

Col. Sudeiken’s Murder.
St. Petersburg, Jan. I.—The murder of
Lieut. Col. Sudeiken, of the gendarmerie,
on Friday night, was committed in the
Rathoff building, near the Moscow rail
way station. It appears that be was
killed by several Nihilists who had gained
access to the premises, disguised as de
tectives. llis assistant was dangerously
stabbed. The murder is' attributed to
some recent important arrests of Nihilists
ordered by Col. Sudeiken. The murderers
left a letter behind them stating that
their next victims would be Count Tols
toi, Minister of the Interior, and Gen.
Gresser, Chief of the St. Petersburg po
lice. The body of the murdered man was
conveyed to the depot to-day, escorted by
a large cortege of police and bands play
ing a luueral march.
It is reported that Lieut. Col.
Sudeiken, of the gendarmerie, was
enticed into the Rathoff build

Nihlists, on Friday night last, by false
information that a Socialist meeting was

was fearful. The firemen, police and sur
geons soon arrived and the panic was al
layed. Twelve persons were injured.
Military patrolled in the vicinity of the

not disclosed more specific details, and
that no very prominent members now in
Congress are directly implicated. It will
take a good deal more than has been
printed in the Huntington correspondence
to secure an official investigation of the
matter. The correspondence develops what
nearly every one interested knew, that tlie
Southern Pacific and Central are identi
cal in their management and owner
ship. The original grant to the
Texas Pacific was obtained upon the
ground of establish, ng a competing line
to the Central. The great scandal lies in
the way Tom Scott obtained the Texas
Pacific grant. Something of the nature
of this scandal was outlined in Capt.
Newell’s charges made to the Secretary
of the Interior, and by him sent to the
Senate just before the holiday recess.
The erteet, of the Huntington correspond
ence, however, is to make it absolutely
certain that Congress will refuse to pas’s
the Texas Pacific iand grant over to the
Southern Pacific. The amount of this
grant is between 15,000-000 and 20,000,000
of acres. It was assigned to the Southern
Pacific when the latter joined its interests
to the Texas Pacific. This assignment,
under the circumstances, was purely
illegal, and, when made, defeated abso'-
lutely the original intention of Congress
iu making the grant. This land has never
been placed upon the market, as the title
to it has been for a number of years in
question. Meanwhile settlers have gone
in and occupied a large number of the
most valuable tracts, and have made
permanent improvements. These settle
ments extend the entire length of the
tract, and if these people should be com
pelled at any time in the future to pay
extortionate prices to the railroads for
their lands, great hardships would ensue.
But there is no longer any danger of that.
In order to secure this land Huntington
must have affirmative legislation from
Congress. In view of the recent corres
pondence no member would dare to incur
tbe notoriety of advocating a proposition
to rob a large number of poor people to
make a present to an already over-gorged
corporation.
It is a constant source of wonder here
to those who know anything about Hun
tington’s methods, that he should have
permitted the Colton letters to be pub
lished. He had plenty of opportunity to
suppress them by paying Mrs. Colton’s
demands, and it can only be accounted
for upon the ground that 'Huntington has
become indifferent to iuture gains aud is
careless of what is said of him.
A prominent man, in speaking to-day of
the affair, said: “The whole correspon
dence demonstrates one thing, and that is
the fact that any man in a public position
who permits himself to be placed in tbe
power of any corporation is a fool who
does not know enough to go in when it
rains. Corporations are supposed, in the
law, to be soulless, and it seems to me
that almost all men connected with their
management become in time equally soul
less. None of these men could be trusted
by any member of Congress. If tbe
latter should desire to be dishouest, these
corporation traders have not even the
honor of thieves. They are ready to use
men without a thought of obligation be
yond the present service, and are equally
careless of their betrayal. There has
been enough of that sort of thing during
the last ten years to educate the dullest
member upon this subject, and you will
find that no investigation will involve
very seriously any member of Congress
ot modern times who has any character
or prominence.”
The admission of Huntington that the
earnings of the roads of the Central Pa
cific monopoly in January and February
of 1877 were $3,000,000, and that one-half
of this amount was profit, shows that the
employes of the road have several times
submitted lying reports designed to show
that the net earnings ot the monopoly
were only moderate. But here we have
an admission that they are fully 50 per
cent. This admission a'lso reveals another
fact, and that is that the returns of the
gross earnings of the roads have been per
sistently misstated. In 1877 they were
given as $16,471,000. I’et if we take the
earnings of January and February as
given by Huntington—and they are
two of the lightest months in
the year—then they should have
been at least $2,000,000 more than rep
resented. This extraordinary disclosure,
the San Francisco Chronicle contends,
would be sufficient warrant for a reduc
tion five times as great as the sham re
cently put through by the Commissioners.
The Chronicle also suggests that the Com
missioners might examine into the ques
tion of the dividends fraudulently declared
oii borrowed money, to which Huntington
alludes, and that Oongres would uot do a
bad thing if it would investigate all tbe
matters touched upon in the correspon
dence, so that they might obtain light
which would enable them to act intelli
gently upon the fraudulent application of
Huntington and his partners for the un
earned lands of the Texas Pacific.
THE SO-CALLED KUKLUX.
What the Georcia Prisoners Said About
the Crime.
Cincinnati Special, 30th ult.
Half a dozen muscular fellows in chains
were waiting to-day at the Grand Central
Passenger Station for the train for the
North. They had been convicted of ku
klux outrages in Georgia, and were bound
for the Auburn (N. Y.) Penitentiary. The
principal one of the group, J. M. Yar
brough, was approached and asked if he
had any objections to talking to a news
paper man. “Not a bit,” said he. “1
ain’t ashamed of what I’ve done, and I
would like to teil it so you people up here
may understand the case. You see the
bill against us said ‘ku-kluxin,’ but it
was nothing of the kind. One msrht my
brother and some neighbors’ bovs were
out on the road going home with the girls.
They met a young mulatto named Cad
Bush, who brushed against the girl. Neil
was with them, and Neil asked what he
did that for. The nigger got sassy, said
he was a taxpayer, worked on the roads,
and had a right to walk on ’em. The boys
went that night with their hickories and
dressed him up right smart—no light
dressin’. but one he would remember—and
all on account of the girl, and not on ac
count of politics, as they tried to make
out.
“After that an old nigger, a relative of
Bush, said he war going to kill me on
sight, and the night of July 24 we started
out to hunt him, and went first to the
cabin ot a man named Cook, whar we
knew he hung out most of the time. We
knocked on the door, and Cook sajs,
‘Who’s that-?’ 1 told him we had nothin’
against him, but we just wanted to see if
so and so war in thar, and he said, ‘No.’
NVe said, “That’s all right, but just open
the door and let us see.” He wouldn’t do
it, so we opened up for him and gave him
niue licks. Then we went over to Barrv
Sanderson’s, who refused to open the
door. We pried oft’ the fastening and
Barry rushed out with an axe. Wedidn’l
know it was him, and one of our bovs
shot at him several times, and finally hit
him, and that’s what they call kukluxin’,
and that’s all we’re here for.”
“What would you have done if you had
found your man?”
“Well, I reckon we’d a thrashed him
good. We wouldn’t a killed him. We
never kill anybody, but we do lick a nigger
once in a while unless they walk the
line pretty straight. I don’t think I’ll
lick another one if I ever get out. It’s ex
pensive. See what I’ve got for it now.”
Employer and Employe.
Cincinnati, Jan. I.—Thirteen firms of
boot and shoe manufacturers have signed
a paper declaring the Board ot Arbitra
tion, which for a year or two has been
fixing the schedules of prices and settling
disputes about shop discipline, a failure,
and agreeing he'reafter not to discuss these
matters with their employes, but to fix
their own wages and settle all questions
of discipline. This action is opposed by a
number ot leading firms and by the mem
bers of the Arbitration Board, who sav
the motive for it is that the Board of Arbi
tration has refused to reduce wages, as
demanded by some small manufacturers.

WINSLOW, THE FORGER.
Growing Wealthy and Powerful in a
South American City.
Washington Special.
A writer iu the Sunday Capital gives
some interesting intormation about Wins
low, the escaped Boston forger, whose
notoriety is world wide, and who is now
living m Buenos Ayres under the name of
.D. Lowe. YV inslow was dropped out
of the navy in 1809. having served as a
chaplain from 1864. His newspaper and
other enterprises in Boston, which were
cut short bv the discovery of his forgeries
occupied bun three or four years, and his
present career dates from about the year
1875 (V 1876. Since his arrival in Buenos
Ayres fortune seems to have smiled upon
his every endeavor, and although his for
mer record is well known, he is treated
as a reputable person and is regarded its
one of the most successful men of the
place.
Almost immediately on his arrival in
Buenos Ayres Winslow succeeded in bor
rowing money sufficient to establish his
newspaper, the Daily Herald, and the en
terprise has been a success from the start,
and is now published iu French and Span
ish as well as in English. Winslow’s re
ligious homilies in the Sunday edition of
the Herald are said to be as good reading
as the latitude of Buenos Avres affords.
He has become the owner of a handsome
block of buildings, drives the best pair of
horses in Buenos Ayres, which, by the
way, is a city of half a million people,
and lives in a handsome house on the out
skirts. He has a telephone from his busi
ness office to his residence, and does most
of his editing at home in his elegant
library.
Soon after his arrival in Buenos Ayres
M inslow succeded in marrying a young
woman and went to England on his" wed
ding trip, but remained there but a short
time for fear of an application from the
Lnited States for his extradition. Since
he has been in Buenos Ayres he has been
to Europe twice on important missions
for tho government. He has the entree at
the President’s house, where ho even
takes precedence of the President’s minis
terial advisers, who are obliged to
wait until his business is done
betore they go in to do theirs. It
is believed that he is so pow
erful that he would have no difficulty in
breaking down any person who should
undertake to expose or oppose hint, and
no one cares to do it. He is a member of
the principal club of the place, and is per
sonally intimate with the American Min
ister.
Winslow has experienced only one re
buff since his arrival in Buenos Ayres,
which was his expulsion from a church
on account of the disc osure of his base
treatment to bis first wife, whom he aban
doned to penury in Massachusetts. It is
said that he has not manifested any dispo
sition to pay off the amounts realized out
of his forgeries in Boston. His ci edit in
Buenos Ayres is said to be exceedingly
good, and prominent merchants ate al
ways ready to lend him all the money that
he wants.
DYNAMITE EL(JQUENCE.
Forming an Army of Irish Crusaders to
Klow up England.
Xeic York Times , Dec. SO.
A meeting under the auspices of tlie
Fenian Brotherhood of Brooklyn was held
last night at Columbia Hall, York aud
Main streets, for “the purpose of diffusing
knowledge on scientific warfare, or the
quickest way to drive the red-coated rob
bers out of Ireland,” and Mr. O’Donovau
Rossa was the chief feature of tlie even
ing. NYm. Burke, who occupied the oner
ous position of Chairman for the meeting,
made a few remarks. Dynamite was
breathed in every sentence, and he sought
to imbue his hearers with the belief that
tlie only manner in which thev might de
serve and procure eternal happiness was
by blowing England into 4,000,000 atoms.
“Scientists teach us,” said Mr. Burke,
“that gunpowder will blow a man up at
the rate of 6,000 miles per minute, but,
thank heaven, those same scientists have
given no dynamite which would send the
city of Loudon—yes, all England—flying
at the rate of 73,000 miles per minute. If
we educate 1,000 men in tne science of
chemistry,they can blow every city in Eng
land four miles above heaven in less than
six months.”
“Gentlemen,” Mr. O’Donovan Rossa be
gan, “even these unbiased newspaper re
porters sympathize with suffering Ireland.
But let me assure you, gentlemen and
reporters [he seemed to make a dis
tinction], that before the third anni
versary of O’Donnell’s death we will
be prepared to give Ireland her
liberty. I have been called a madman
and a fool for saying so. lam not a fool,
but I admit I am a madman, lor to be an
Irishman nowadays a man must be mad.
I go in for dynamite.” [Here Mr. O’Dono
van Rossa’s hair bristled.] “NVith the
loyal Irishmen in England who are ready
to do the work, it only remains for us to
put up money enough to assist them, and
London will have ceased to be a city.
Tear down English cities’. Kill the Eng
lish people 1 It is open warfare now, and
to kill and massacre and pillage is justifi
able in tbe eyes ot God and man.”
He fairly boiled. He boiled and hissed
and fizzled for fully half an hour, and
then Robert Blissert exerted himself. ‘ I
have just come from New York.” he ad
mitted, “where the Irish Crusaders’ Club
No. 1. has been organized. If we will
organize Crusaders No. 2 in Brooklyn we
will have started in a fair way for 100,000
men to avenge the death of O’Donneil. No
more money for lawyers but cash for de
termined men who will do practical work.
In England to-day there are enough loyal
men to blow up every building in the
land. They are ready and willing. Give
them the assurance that should they die
on the scaffold their families will be
cared for and NVestminster Bridge will
crumble to the water and tlie House of
Parliament will be sent flying the other
way. NYe have tried peaceful agitation of
the Irish question front different stand
points and in each instance the result has
been the same. It is high time that the
trodden-down race try for liberty on some
other tack. The chemist has given us
that tack and it is—dynamite!”
Finally Crusaders’ Club No. 2 was
formed. There was only one candidate
who was in a sufficiendy good financial
condition to pay the required fee of sl, but
the others were taken on trust.
MR. HOPKINS’ LAND BILL.
A Flail to Prevent People From Ac
quiring Large Tracts.
Washington Special to Philadelphia Time*,
Dec. 30.
Since Representative Hopkins, of Pitts
burg, announced bis intention of offering
a bill to limit the holding of public lands
in the United States by aliens be has
daily received communications from all
parts of the country making inquiries on
the subject. Among his correspondents
was the librarian of th“ Canadian Legis
lature, who desired Mr. Hopkins to fur
nish him, if possible, with all the
information thus far obtained. Be
sides limiting aliens, Mr. Hopkins de
sires that citizens of United
States shall not be privileged to
acquire large tracts of the pub
lic domain, and he has framed a bill hav
ing this object in view. In the preamble
he sets forth that the United States has
at different times granted large quanti
ties of the public lands to railroad com
panies and other corporations to aid the
completion of public improvements. It
was not intended that these lands should
be used for the purposes of speculation
or cultivation by the companies, and it is
against the policy and best interests of
the United States that large tracts ofland
should be accumulated or held by one
person or association of person’s or
corporations. All corporations holding
public lands donated or granted by
the United States are therefore to
be required to sell and convey the lands
within three years from the passage of
the bill, at public or private sale. Public
notices shall be given of the times and
places at which the lands may be pur
chased, All sales to be open to all alike,
without favoritism or partiality of any
kind. No one person shall acquire or
hold in any one county a greater quantity
than one thousand acres. Tlie act is not
to apply to the lands required by the sev
eral corporations for rights of way, de
pots, stations and other objects within the
scope of theii legitimate business.

ME RATHBOSE TRAGEDY.
DETAILS OP THE DECENT SAD
EVENT AT HANOVER.
A Wife’s Vain Appeal—Turned from
Killing His Children, the Father At
tacks the Mother Stabbed with a
Dagger.
The Rathbone tragedy continues to be
the leading theme of conversation in New
York, where the Rathbone and Harris
tamilies were so well known. Col. Rath
bone belongs to a distinguished Albany,
N. Y., family, and his vife was the daugh
ter of Ira Harris, of Albany, who was
United States Senator during Lincoln’s
administration. Col. Rathbone was in
the box with Lincoln the night he was as
sassinated. Col. Rathbone and family
have lived in Germany for several years
for the purpose of educating their chil
dren. Our dispatches have already given
the main points or the tragedy. The New
York Herald has the following:
Though many details of the Rathbone
tragedy are concealed from the public,
yet enough is known to show that Mrs.
Rathbone sacrificed herself for her chil
dren. Col. Rathbone. formerly noted for
his kindly and genial character, became
lately melancholy, morose and suspicious,
and subject to fits of strong passion. Four
years ago he went to Carlsbad for a cure,
but returned rather worse than better.
Recently his family discussed the wis
dom of allowing his wile and her sister.
Miss Harris, and children to remain with
him.
The Colonel became suspicious that the
children would he taken away, and
shunned the society ofall strange persons.
He became menschenscheu < shy or human
beings), as Germans say. A few days
before the tragedy he was restless and
excited, and so strange were his actions
that his wife said, “Well, the end is not
tar off.” Her fears were that lie would
commit suiciJc. She is described as a
lady of unexceptionable character, gen
tle, loving and untiring in her devotion to
her husband, living only that she might
watch over him.
Lately the Colonel slept with a loaded
revolver under his pillow. On Sunday
evening he sat moodily at a table in the
drawing room for some hours, silent ami
staring blankly and picking at a handker
chief. He had a sleepless night and rose
at 5:30 in the morning. Passsiug out of
the room, he went along with a light in
one hand and a revolver in the other to
the door where his little daughter Paul
ine slept with her nurse.
Knocking, he asked, “Nurse, is Paulino
in beij?”
“Yes,” she answered.
“Are the hoys in their room?”
“Yes.”
“Open the door, I want to see them.”
Mrs. Rathbone had now missed her
husband, and came up just as the nurse
was opening the door. She said, “Dear
husband, do calm yourself,” and then
called:
“Nurse, lock the door and save the
children; there is going to he dreadful
work.”
The nurse closed the doors, and Mrs.
Rathbone appealed to the Colonel to go
and rest.
Hearing the door bolted, and seeing his
design thwarted, Col. Rathbone turned
with ungovernable passion and seized his
wife by the upper part of the arm. He
dragged her into the tied room. The nurse
reports that she heard sounds of a struggle
and that the door was locked and unlocked
three times. Miss Harris, who was
aroused, entered the apartment, hut was
put out qui kly by the Colonel.
Mrs. Rathbone was heard crying, “Hen
ry, let me live!” then Rhots were heard
and then silence ensued. When the door
was burst open Mrs. Rathbone was found
on the bed, covered with blood. She
merely said to her sister, “He has killed
us both at last,” and expired without
pain in less than five minutes. She had
received two pistol shots in the breast, but
the fatal wound was inflicted by the blade
of a dagger, which pierced her heart.
Col. Rathbone was lying on the floor
conscious, though wounded five times bv
the dagger, one cut reaching the lung.
He asked for brandy, said he was much
hurt, and exclaimed, “Who could have
done this? I have noenemies.” He asked
where was the city hospital, and called
piteously for his wife.
Afterward he remembered what he had
done. He said he had great provocation
and had found the children dressd and
evidently about to leave him. Everything
points to the conclusion that be is quite
irresponsible. The Rev. Mr. Mills, Mr.
Sturges and others whom I have seen cor
roborate this supposition.
The Colonel lately labored under the
delusion that persons were hidden behind
the pictures in the room, and wrote in a
note book a confused draft of a will. Dr.
Goetly, the family physician, thinks his
mind has been affected since the death ot
Lincoln, when he received a wound in the
arm from Booth’s dagger. Subsequently
he had an attack of brain fever. If he
recovers he will be defended by Herr
Windtiiorst. recently Hanoverian Min
ister.
Tlie Covington Fire.
Atlanta, Jan. I.—The fire at Coving
ton last night destroyed property to the
value of $30,000. The insurance is $7,000.
The court house was destroyed, hut the

Seeing After Ten Years.
The Rev. Dr. Backus, of Union College,
has had his sight restored after ten years’
blindness by cataract. The Schenectady
Union says: ‘-Dr. Backus’joy on return
ing to his family, able to see their faces
tor the first time in ten years, cannot be
described. Many whose voices were per
fectly familiar to him, were in their faces
entire strangers. He had never seen his
grandchildren. Some friends had chang
ed and grown old in ten years, and but
for their familiar voices would scarcely
have been recognized. In the city the
changes have been as great. The Young
Men’s Christian Association, of which
I)r. Backus had been an influential mem
ber for many years, had built a large and
handsome structure on State street, and
he had passed it every day for years, hut
never saw it until last week. So through
out the city the doctor is almos’ a
stranger, and each day finds some im
provement over ten years ago. In ans
wer to the question as to how nfs spirits
were affected at the thought of being
blind, Dr. Backus said that when in per
fect health the appalling sense ol his loss
rarely occurred to him.”
