no more jams at the fair. Cticago Day’s Crush Gave the People a Scare. jhe Belief That a Million. People Would Be On the Grounds at the Wind UP Now Abandoned—To-mor row Will Be All Cities’ Day—A Fes tival Concert of Chicago Composers And An All Day Celebration In the Woman’s Building. Chicago, Oot. 36.—There is not likely to bf any more days of great attendance at the fair. To-day was rainy and cold and decreased the estimated figures of at tendance for this week. Some people hoped that a million people would go through the gates the last day, which will be next Monday, but the crush of Chicago day, which was something over 716,000, scared people a trifle. Indeed it was that fear that in some measure kept the figures for Manhattan day down. A half million or more people were confidently expected and many of those here to attend the fair, and a large number of Chicago people, deemed it wise to stay away. It is this feeling that may keep crowds away the last day, which is now being boomed. If another million people see the fair, including those who struggle in after the gates are officially closed, sanguine expectations will be realized. That would put the total paid attendance at 21,431,799. ALL, CITIES’ DAT. Saturday will be all cities’ day, and responses to invitations to mayors from numerous cities have been numerous. Exercises will be held at Music Hall at 10 o'clock and at noon a fan fare of uni versal peace and a salute of cannon will greet the mayors as they enter the grounds. The address of welcome will be made by Mayor Harrison. Responses will be made by several of the visitors. James H. Norton will make an address, and the entertainment will conclude with musical selections. A festival concert of Chicago com posers will take place at 3 o’clock the same day. There will be an all day celebration in the woman’s building. In the morning addresses will be made by representa tives of different cities, followed by a concert. In the evening an interesting entertainment will be given. To-morrow will be coal, grain and lum ber dealers' day. Californians may have an opportunity to hear the lowa state hand, which has become fixed in the popular heart at this exposition, at their mid-winter fair. The manager of this now famous lot of musi cians is in San Francisco, and it is under stood is about to close negotiations to bring his men and instruments to Cali fornia. AX ENTERTAINMENT FOR CHARITY. Under the patronage of Mrs. Potter Palmer an entertainment is to be given in the woman’s building to-morrow for the benefit of destitute crippled children. The ladies have been energetic in piling up a subscription fund to help swell the receipts. Mrs. Isabel Garrison, now in Canada, has the matter in charge, and she has told the national commissioners that she is coming to them individually and that the only compromise they can make with her on this charity is relative to the amount of their contributions. The gal lant gentlemen of the commission have promised to be liberal. Mrs. Garrison has received a check from Henry Irving and Helen Terry for $l5O for this charity. The total admissions to-day were 222,- 67aj-’of which 192,649 paid. DIPLOMAS FROM THE LADIES, Washington, Oct. 26.—The Senate com mittee on appropriations to-day reported the urgency deficiency bill amended so as to allow' the board of lady managers of the Columbian exposition, in connection with the American association of ex hibitors, to present diplomas of honorable mention to designers, inventors and ex nert artisans who have assisted in the production of such exhibits as are awarded diplomas or are favorably com mended by th'e director general. A MEXICAN BANK FAILS. Its Liabilities $1,100,000 and its Nominal Assets $1,200,000. New York, Oct. 26.—A dispatch to the World from the city of Mexico says: “The banking house of Pedro Martin & Sons, established thirty years ago, and for a long time the correspondent of the house of Baring, has failed with liabilities of $1,100,000 and nominal assets of $1,200,000. The house assigned to the National Bank, the Interna tional and Morgan Bank and the president of the French Benevolent Society. It is believed that the house will pay on liquidation 65 to 70 per cent. This is the most important failure here for many years, but it will not affect the mercantile community, as the house was chiefly a place of deposit for French t rades people. leading bankers say the conduct of the house has been strictly honorable, and that the failure is due to its inability to realize on the se curities it held. CREMATED UNDER CARS. Three Men Killed in a Wreck on the Ann Arbor Road.

Her Grandfather An Ex-Governor of Illinois—The Old Gentleman Very Wrathy and Insists That the Actor Was Already Married. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct, 26.—Charles Coghlan, tho English actor, who is starring jointly with his sister, Rose Coghlan, was married here late Tuesday night to Miss Kuehne Beveredge, a mem ber of the company, and a young woman who has made a considerable reputation as a sculp tress, she having made busts of President Cleveland and other prominent men. The marriage ceremony was per formed by Justice Daniels, and was fol lowed by a wedding supper, to which only a few members of the company were invited. Strenuous efforts were made to keep the whole affair a secret. The com pany went to Louisville from here. COGHLAN ADMITS THE MARRAGB. Louisville, Ky., Oct. 26.—Charles Cogh lan, of the Coghlan Dramatic Company., when seen to-day in regard to his re ported marriage at Indianapolis last Tues day night to Miss Kuehne Beveredge, also of the company, answered pleasantly, and said that he married Miss'Beveredge Tuesday night after the jierformance. He was in a rush getting the ladies set tled at the hotel, and begged, after con firming the report of the marriage, to lie excused from saying anything more. The marriage was kept secret on Mr. Coghlan’s instruction. THE BEAUTIFUL BRIDE. Miss Beveredge is not yet 19, and is a young woman of striking beauty. She is a sculptress, who has become famous from a bust of President Cleveland made by her. She is a granddaughter of ex-Gov emor Beveredge, of Illinois, and is a young woman of fine character. She has a minor part in “Diplomacy,” but is ca pable of greater things. She has been on the stage only this season. Mr. Coghlan is one of the best known men on the stage. He was the literary administrator of Lord Bulwer, has writ ten several plays and has another in course of preparation. He is 52 years old, and was born in Paris. This is his first marriage. AN INDIGNANT DENIAL. Chicago, Oct. 26. —The reported bride is a granddaughter of Ex-Gov. Bever edge of Illinois. The ex-governor this af ternoon gave a more sensatioual tinge to the story by declaring that Mr. Coghlan already had a wife living. “You may deny the report of the marriage in ' the most emphatic language,” ho said. “Mr. Coghlan is a mar ried man, and his wife and daughter were here with him twice during the past summer. My granddaughter is a member of the Coghlan company and I knew that they were playing in Indianapolis this week. My daughter-in-law, Mrs. Bever edge, is with Kuhne, and would certainly not allow her to become entangled with a married man. I believe that Mrs. Cogh lan is traveling with the company, for she was here in September when the Cogh lans opened their season. RUNS OF THE RACERS.

The champion also urged the club to make the date of the contest earlier that that set by the Coney Island Ath letic Club and suggested the latter part of November.

A MERRY BEAST IS REYNARD. Restless, Alert, Full of Resources, a Devllmay-Care Life is the Fox’s. From the New York Sun. “How few people know what an inter esting chap the fox is,” said the natural ist. "They know him only by reputation, and that as a chicken thief, which ho is. But he has lots of points, I tell you. A merry, sly dog is Reynard. All summer he lives in luxurious ease, roauflng the woods and sauntering l>y the pearly brooks, or basking in the noonday sun. “He loves fish; and going down to the stream he waits till lie spies a plump trout. It’s over in a twinkling A leap, a snap, and off he trots with his juicy morsel. A stupid crawfish snoozes by his hole near tho water’s edge. Reynard drops his tail in the water and tickles him with it. The angered crustacean comes out of his hiding place and is seized and crushed, armor and all. When the ripening corn is ready to drop, and the luscious fruits have reached their maturity, and all nature is plethoric with ripening fulness, then Master Fox is in clover. Timid rubits prick up their ears and run, unconscious of danger, along the hillside; the quails skulk noise lessly in the wheat stubble; birds pour forth their notes of praise—and he catches them all. He loves fruits. Stealthily stealing into orchards, where apples and plump ]>ears tempt, and in the vineyard he fairly revels in grapes. His cubs grow fat and saucy. He shows them how to pilfer honey, and when the busy bee3 have laid up a w inter store he crawls to the hives near the garden fence, and, Jumping up to the small open ing, licks tho sweet drops with pure de- light. Out come the stinging, humming honey-makers aud settle like a pall on his thick pelt; but he doubles up in a tvvink ling, and, rolling over and over, crushes them by the score and eats them as a rel ish. "Cunning! No animal beats him. Look at his brainy head. His delicate ears— broad below to catch every sound from the highest note of the shrill warbler to the low crooning of the cricket, or the distant murmur of storm, or the fevered pants of the prancing hounds, and taper ing so sharply to a point that they can shape themselves to every wave of air that makes the tiniest rustle of noise. Note tho crafty calculation and foresight of the low, fiat brow. What a nose! Now' full of resolute purpose, pointing straight forward and anon turning up with concentrated malice and scorn. The eye, deep set, a regular robber’s eye, lacking the soft beauty of the timid deer, or the fascinating glare of the cat’s, yet it trembles with modest humility, or glares with murderous rage, flash ing fire and vengeance. Energy and seif control speak in the thin cyn ical lips, and the mouth opens from ear to ear. He can leap, crawl, run, and swim with the velocity of lightning, and his wiry' body is carried so noiselessly along that scarce a trace is left. His delicate footfalls echo no response even among the dead leaves of the forest. His walk is treacherous, his glance sinister. Seizing a bunch of grain in his mouth he will swim into the midst of a flock of ducks and seize the plumpest for a dinner. "He will feign death like a ’possum, and even the hound’s teeth and the flash of gunpowder have failed to arouse him. A farmer surprised one in a hen roost. Believing that the fox was dead from overheating, the farmer kicked the stiff ened body on the floor, picked it up by tho tail, and flung it out in the barnyard. In a jiffy the fox gathered up his legs and escaped. "He is voracious, is reynard. When hunger-pressed, and gaunt and lean from starvation, he’ll not refuse serpents and toads and moles and rats. He has been known to attack and kill young calves and lamb, and if the seashore is hear will revel in oysters, and shellfish A group of rabbits ftgSdVig A.AJoVer patch. He’ll crawl along, nibbling the juicy flowers, until near enough to make a grab. He'll stalk a bird with hil hind logs dragging behind him.uutil near enough to spring. How farmers dread his inroads ip the poultry yard. Fasten the yard up , tight and he will burrow a winding pas ' sage into the ground beneath ana sud denly appear among the drowsy chickens and stupid geese, whose shrill and alarmed cries arouse tho farmer from his bed to sally' forth, finding all safe. Then the fox will sneak back and pack away with the plumpest pullet or the fattest goose. “February is the month when reynard goes awooing, and a wide range he takeg, flirting and toying with every vixen that chances in his way. It is fully sixty' days before madame clears the .rubbish all out of her burrow and brings forth her young, from three to six at a litter. It will be full.v a month before the sharp-nosed cubs begin to play and gambol about the door way of their home. Perhaps it will be at the root of an old tree, beneath a ledge of rocks, or in the hollow of a dead tree trunk, or a burrow with several en trances in the sand or loam. Tell-tale chicken bones, and feathers and fur strewn about the entrance speak of many a hen roost robbed, or of foolish rabbits and over-confident grouse that have fur nished food for the over-hungry cubs. The mother fox faithfully feeds her young and boldly steals to support them. Hho knows, as all the sportsmen know, that tho hounds will not follow her while she has a family depending upon her. "A merr.v, devil-ma.vcare life does the fox lead, indeed! It may be a short one, for traps and snares are many, hunters are alert, and the scent of hound is keen. But reynard rollicks and roisters, and plays the bold freebooter amid it all.” How to Find Out the Longest Hour of the Day or Night. Actual and repeated experiments have shown, says Tid Bits, that the nearest hour of the day or night may he ascertained in the following very'Cureous way: Make a small running loop In a pice of sewing thread about a foot In length, place a shilling in this loop, see that the coin is accurately bisected by the thread, and then draw the loop tight up. so that the shilling is firmly slung at one end of the thread. Put on a solid table a glass tumbler with a fairly wide mouth. Rest your right elbow on the table In a firm and easy position, so as to avoid any shaklnuss In your hand, hold the other end of the thread between your first finger and the ball of the thumbfl. e.the fleshy top joint of the thumb:, so that the thumb nail is undermost, and a few inches above the middle of the mouth of the glass. Now, If you keep your hand quite steady, the movement of the coin, which is hanging inside the tumbler, will become less and less until the shilling is motionless. Then. In half a minute or so, a very slight and regular vibration will commence, the coin oscillating from side to side like a pendulum, and gradually increasing the length of movement until It gen tly strikes the side of the glass. This strike goes on in the most regular and automatic way, first on one side of the glass and then on the other, until, say. eight strokes have been struck; the vibrations of the coin then dimm ish in length, until the suspended shilling again becomes motionless anu hgngs in the middle of the tumbler. You look at your watch and find that 8 o clock is the nearest hour. I have tried this over and over again, deliberately setting about the experiment without bias or any intention of influencing the swing of the coin, and also being ignorant of the time, and when my hand bus been steady the right time has invariably been struck There ts something very curious about this phenomenon. Whether the thread is influenced by the pulse In the "ball" of the thumb or whether there is some unconscious transference of "intention" from the brain to the thread, I do not know; but in any case the matter is sufficiently interesting to be worthy of a critical test by parsons who will carefully and without bias carry out this sin gular experiment of telling the time. Pick -Yea, you see. I'm in BO end of a fix. 1 would never have pto|,„c<l if I’d had tlie least idea that she would accept me, hut she did. Jack Well, just prupoee again, as if you had forgotten.

A missionary stationed at ono of the South Sea Islands determined to give uis|residence a coat of whitewash, says the Buffalo Commer cial. To obtain this, in the absence of lime, coral was reduced to powder by burning. The natives watched the processor burning with Interest, believing that the coral was being cooked for them to eat. Next morning thee beheld the missionary's cottage glittering in the rising sun white as snow. They danced, they sang, they screamed with joy. The whole Island was In confusion. Whitewash became the rage. Happy was the coquette who could enhance her charms t y a daub of the white brush. Contentions arose. One party urged their superior rank: another ob tained possession of the brush and valiantly held it against all comers; a third tried to up set the tub to obtain some of the precious cos metic. To quiet the hubbub more whitewash was made, and in a week not a hut. a domes tie utensil, a war club or a garment but was as white as snow; not an inhabitant hut had his skin painted with grotesque figures; not a pig that was not made white, and mothers might be seen in every direction, capering joviutly and yelling with delight in the con templation of the superior beauty of their whitewashed balms.
