rule as it appertains to political aspirants. Tal

offices. About fifteen want to be tax receiver,
while three want to gather in the taxes and
handle the shekels; three are contesting for the
sheriff’s office, while a like number desire to oc

Arizona Fishing Stories.
A private letter to a friend in this city from
Lieut. John Bacon McDonald, of the army,
now commanding a company of Apache Indian
scouts at San Carlos, Arizona, gives a description
of Arizona very different from the general opin
ion. The lieutenant, who was prepared for the
West Point military academy by Capt. J. J. Slade,
is well known here. He says, after congratula
tory remarks upon Gen. Miles’ capture of Gero-
nimo and the close of the war: “I am just back
from the Arizona White mountains, and had a
.splendid time fishing and hunting. Dr. Davis
caught 302 mountain trout, while I only captured
235, and the men caught countless numbers. We
shot atone bear and one Indian-both escaped
unhurt; but we got the Indian’s horse. We killed
several deer. I shot fifteen wild turkeys and
numerous grouse. There can be no prettier
country in the world than in those mountains.
There are tall, large pines with mats of oak trees,
thickty studded with the lovliest aspen trees I
ever saw, while the earth is covered with grass
knee high. The streams are only a mile or two
apart; the banks of which are lined with beau
tiful spruce and fir trees. In summer it is al
most an earthly paradise, (barring the musqui-
toes), but in winter is snow-bound."

Sheepbhkad Bay, N. y.. September 13.
—Dew Drop, the famous .f2*1,000 lilly, died
to-day at the Dwyer stables at this place.
The exact cause of the death is not known.
The veterinary surgeons and horsemen are
widely divided in their opinions. The
Ally was out yesterday morning for exer-
aise, mid after being taken to the stables
was given some water. Matt Burns, the
trainer for the Dwyer stables, noticed that
she acted queerly, and tried to
insert her entire head in the
water, lie made nn examination and
found lifer to lie very feverish. Dr. Lock-
hard, of NewJYork, the eminent veternary
surgeon, was at once sent for, but was
found to lie out of town. liis assist
ant immediately proceeded to the stables
and made an examination, Burns in tile
meantime doing all in his power to re
lieve the filly.
Dr. Locknard’s assistant gave as his
opinion that the filly was suffering from
cerelm,-spinal meningitis, but his opinion
was not concurred in by other horsemen
present, who think tlie flliy lias received
Internal injury.
The main trouble seemed to be with her
throat, she being unable to swallow. A
poultice was applied to her throat and
other remedies used, but they afforded no
relief.
The filly bore up well until last night at
11 o’clock, when she became too weuk to
stand and laid down, suffering great agony.
Dr. Branley, an eminent western horse
man, of wide experience, was called in to
consult with Dr. Lockhnrd’s assistant, and
this morning decided, as a lost resort, to
bleed her. Mike Dwyer, who remained
up all night, consented to allow the opera
tion. Dew Drop’s death occurred shortly
after noon. In attempting to bleed her,
an artery was accidentally severed, and
before the flow of blood could be stopped
she died. The news fell like a thunder
bolt out of a clear sky among the horse
men here, and the Dwyers received many
expressions of sympathy. They bear their
trouble philosophically, although the loss
will be great.
Trouble never comes singly, and Win
fred, which was purchased at the same
sale by the Dwyers, has been ailing for
some time past with lung fever, and is ex
pected to die at any time.
Winfred is by imported Mortimer, and is
a brother to the great Wanda. The family
has always been a good racing one, and
great, things were expected from the colt.
Winfred ran second to Dew Drop in the
Electric stakes.
that the doors of his house were
tightly closed. Mr. Brockman notified the
police at the WestChicago Avenue station,
and the body was taken to the morgue.
Decomposition lmd set in, indicating that
the suicide had been committed Wednes
day afternoon or night. The Rev. Nels
Ryder was 47 years of age and ail educated
man. He was deposed from his pastorate
some time ago, because it is said, his re
ligious preachings were too liberal for the
creed of the church as understood by his
congregation. Ho has been unable to Hud
another pulpit, and has lately been drink
ing to excess, thus bringing about domestic
troubles. His wife left him two months
ago on nocount of Ids dissipated habits,
taking with her their throe-year-old boy.

New York, September 12.—Last Satur- j
• day afternoon, in the monastery in west |
| Hoboken, forty Catholics awaited tlieir i
turn t.o go to confession. About 3 o’clock ;
: there arrived at the monastery a party of \
; eight persons in two carriages. Among
; them was a Miss Lamonte, who, after liav- j
i ing been helped from her carriage, ap
proached the altar rail on crutches. She j
i had been a sufferer from paralysis of the
I left side for years. She knelt at the altar ]
' rail for some time. The restof the party,
relatives or intimate friends of the young
j woman, knelt in front.
I Shortly afterwards the Rev. Father Al-
| bino, a member of the order of the Pas-
I sionist Fathers, leaving the vestry very
slowly, approached the kneeling young
] woman and asked her to recite some
, prayers. This done, he brought from the
altar a relic of the bones of St. Paul of the
cross. Then ho recited the litany of the
saints and other prayers In Latin, rubbing
the case in which the bones were encased
over tlie young woman’s afflicted side.
After this he approached the altar rail and
prayed devoutly for some minutes. Ap
proaching the afflicted one again he said,
“Arise, my child.” This she ai
iid with the
aid of the crutches. “Lay the crutches on
the altar footstool and walk fearlessly to a
pew, remembering that faith is every
thing and without it one cannot be cured,”
A TWO-ACT TRAGEDY.

Son Kills Ills Father anil the Sheriff.
Portland, Oregon, September 12.—The
Oregonian’s Spokane Falls, W. T., special
gives particulars of a double tragedy which
occurred ou the 7th inst., in Grand Coulee,
half way between Spokane Falls and
Okansgan. A man named Paine commit
ted murder in Missouri several years ago,
and was sentenced to hang, but made his
escape and came to Washington territory,
and settled in Okangan county. His
whereabouts became known, and
a requisition was sent to Spokane Falls
and placed in the hands of Juck Hubbard,
a constable, to serve. He took a deputy
named Faikiu and left Sunday morning
for Paine’s place, 100 miles distant, secured
Paine without trouble and placed hand
cuffs on him. He asked to bid farewell to
his wife in secret, which was granted, and
the two officers and the prisoner started
on a buckboard for Spokane Falls about
noon. Toward dusk a sou of Paine, aged 25,
coming on horseback, overtook the officers
and began firing from a Winchester rifle.
The third shot hit his father, who died
ten minutes after. The officers returned
the fire with revolvers, but the range was
I too short. The fifth snot struck Hubbard
, in the chin, auj he fell to the ground dead
Faikiu then whipped the team, but went
i only a short distance, when one of the
I horses fell dead from a rifle wound. Young
! Paine made his escape. The old man, as
1 he was dying, confessed to Faikiii that
i when he bade good-bye to his wife he told
I her to tell their son to rescue him, even if
he had to kill the officers.
said Father Albino. Miss Lamonte laid
j down first the crutch from her right side
and seemed loth to lose the support on the
othe side. Her friends meanwhile were
! looking anxiously but I reverentially on.
I Father Albino carefully relieved her of the
) other crutch, and the young lady walked,
first in fear and trembling, and afterward
With a firm trend to the first pew to the
left of the center aisle. On entering the
pew she stood erect, and with her hands
above her head, said, loud enough to en
able all in the vast church to hear
her: “May God be praised.”
She then dropped on her
knees, and amid sons, which were
mingled with those of all present, she
knelt and prayed. Rev. Father Albino ap
proached the altar railing, and, leaning
over and extending his arms across the
railing, said, feelingly: “May God bless
you, my child.” He then repaired to the
vestry and was followed by two or three
members of the party. Miss Lamoute
long continued to pray, and her tears were
mingled with those of an elderly lady
kneeling beside her, apparently her
mother.
A little later those who had entered the
vestry approached the lady, and after a
hurried consultation they walked down
the aisle. When your correspondent called
: at the rectory last evening all was as som-
I bre as the grave, the members of the order
being secluded. In answer to the ring one
i member of the order opened the door with
: a dang which was suggestive of monastery |
: life. When questioned the reverend father |
j remarked meekly that a young woman had j
j been cured on Saturday last, but added
| that it was by God's grace. Crutches and j
I canes innumerable are piled up nt the
monastery. The members of the order 1
smile when asked the meaning of this, and
1 say that it is God’s will. Mrs. Kerrigan,'
El Paso, Texas, September 14.—Envoy
Sedgwick has been here now three days,
and during all this time very few people
in E) Paso have been able to see hiui. lie
has worked steadily during the day with
Consul Brigham in Paso del Norte and
kept his hotel nn this Hide very closely
during the evening. A Republican reporter
called on the gentleman this evening and
found him sitting on the hotel veranda,
evidently enjoying the cool evening very
much. In reply to the question as to
how much truth there was In the
scandalous stories that had been tele
graphed about him from Mexico, he
replied that he did not deBire to say any
thing about ihu matter. "1 have taken
ail the steps necessary to controvert tlie
malicious falsehood,” he continued, “and
feel that 1 cannot go into the matter
further and attend to the business for
which 1 came down here, and have de
cided to confine myself to the investiga
tion and get through just us quickly as I
can. 1 do not know how the absurd and
hurtful story originated, except that 1
learned that some person in tlie City ol
Mexico telegraphed to a Chicago paper
asking what they would pay for a Sedg
wick scandal and that this sensational, ut
terly groundless story Is the result.
“Of course, it has hurt me: has caused
me a great deal of worry, but I have taken
all the necessary stops to convince ny
friends and the authorities nt Washington
of t.he untruth fulness of the charge, and
feel that I can do no more. 1 have the
written statement of forty responsible peo
ple who saw me on the night in question,
when all the scandalous occurrences are
alleged to have taken place, and who saw
me early the next morning, and certainly
the testimony of these forty people, all of
whom are thoroughly trustworthy, will
outweigh the statement of a person whose
identity lias never yet been discovered;
who lias never yet had the courage to
come forward and back up the statements
he lias telegraphed to his paper.
“Secretary Bayard is convinced of the
falsity of the charge, as arc my friends
who know me, and the public must judge
for itself with the plain facts before them.
On one side are forty tangible people who
testify that I returned to my room at the
hotel at an early hour, and on the other
hand is a person whom no one knows any
thing about—who has practically no ex
istence, as his name is unknown. I have
endeavored, as have others, to find some
one who will admit having seen any of the
occurrences charged against me, but we
have been unable to do so.”
In regard to his work in the Cutting
case, Mr. Sedgwick said that he had made
considerable progress, aud had compiled
and gathered a great many documents
bearing on the case, but could say nothing
as to the aspectof the case. He will remain
bere perhaps a week, and lie compelled to
go back to Chihuahua, or even to the City
of Mexico, before he returns to Washing
ton.

LoiuIou'k Charleston Fund Meets with Niggardly
Kuglish Criticism.
London, September 10.—AiJ the morn
ing papers have published the lord mayor’s
appeal in behalf of the Charleston suffer
ers, though some gave it a most obscure
place. The Times put it in its advertising
columns. The afternoon papers actually
oppose the subscription. The Evening
News says: “It has been started, as a
matter of course, but there are at the
same time some two hundred homeless
persons in the immediate vicinity of the
Mansion house who for want of other ac
commodation sleep on the embankment.”
The Echo savs it fails to see why a public
appeal should be made to Englishmen
for the people of Charleston. “It is noto
rious,” says the Echo, “that each of these
funds has a hurtful influence on our es
tablished charities, and considering the
wealth of the United States and the present
poverty of London hospitals, it is desirable
that we should remember that charity be
gins at home.” The evening edition of
the Standard says: ‘‘It is no light thing
to proffer the charity of London when its
chief magistrate undertakes the responsi
bility,” and that “it may be that his lord-
ship^s demand may find a qualified reply.”
The Evening Standard closes its editorial
with the querry: “Does the mayor of
Charleston ask English alms? Or does the
lord mayor of Loudon press them upon
him?”

An Ohio (irnve Robbery,
Toledo, O., September 14.—The police
have discovered that tlie dead girl found
iu a trunk at the railroad station yesterday
was the daughter of J. M. Bowen, a pros
perous fanner living near Bellevue, from
which place the corpse was shipped. Belle
Bowen was seventeen years old, and died
last week of consumption.' She was
buried on Friday and was exhumed Friday
night and shipped to the Toledo medical
college. There is widespread indignation
over the discovery, aud a num
ber of arrests will be made. It
is believed that a regular system of dese-
_ thought that
I would write to you, thankful to say that
I am enjoyin’ the same blessin’. I useter
think that I would like to live in town, hut
now I’ve got enough of it. I’d rather plow
with a jumpin’ coulter than to stay in this
place. Ain’t had a drink of licker sense I
left home. If you can manage to slip me
er bottle by the next man that comes
down, you’d be doin’ a big thing fur me.
Has Bob Raney sold the horse that I stold
from him ? Wush I was out of here.
We have preachin’ of Sundays, but
we ain’t had no revival yit. How I
would like to be at home an’ tap the
old jug. Unless I am pardoned I don’t
reckon I’ll ever sell another vote. It’s bad
fur a man jest at the beginning of his ca
reer of usefulness to lose his citizenship.
Votes air gettin’ to be worth more every
year. A feller that come in yistidy evenin’
tells me that down where he lives you can
git putty fair licker for five cents a drink.
He seems to regret having; come to this.
He stobbed a feller, an’ will have to sarve
twenty-one years. It’s a long time to do
without licker. ' How I’d like to come
home ant make a pass at an old-fashioned
b’iled dinner, an’ then in Ihe evenin’ walk
over to the still-house. Oh, but il makes
me sad to think about it.”

A Preacher Suicides.
Chicago, September 14.—'The body of
the Rev. Nels Ryder, until recently pastor •
of the Swedish Methodist church on North
May, between Ohio und Erie streets, was
found yesterday morning hanging to a bed \
post in the bed-room of his home at No. :
252 Austin avenue. His knees were resting
on the floor and his elbows on the side of
the bed. The piece of clothes line the
suicide had used was drawn tightly about
his neck, aud death must have been caused
by slow strangulation. The body was dis
covered by Eward Brockman, of No. 200
North Carpenter street, a friend of
Ryder, and who had been informed by the
latter’s landlord that Ryder ,had
not been seen for a couple of days and
