The Assassin Meets Death With Sto¬ ical Indifference. A crime against the state of Illinois was expiated on the gallows of the Cook county jail at Chicago Friday morning. Nearly nine months have elapsed since the bullet of an assassin deprived Chicago of her chief executive, the state of one of her most illustrious citizens, and the country at large of a statesman and a patriot. Friday the crime was avenged and Patrick Eugene Prendergast suffered on ignominious death at the hands of the The execution was devoid of inci¬ dent, as the assassin went to his death like an ox goiug to the shambles. Up to tho lest moment the hope of inter¬ position from some sourco or another did not desert him, although ho was fully cognizant of tho fact that all ef¬ forts in both state and federal courts and in the executive chamber had been exhausted. When it came to tho end ho nerved himself for a supreme effort and paid the penalty of his crime with¬ out a whimper and without e word. Those who witnessed the execution were the examiug physicians, the session, mem¬ bers of the grand jury', now in and about 200 ticket-holders, among whom were included the newspaper men. At 11:40 o’clock the procession to tho scaffold moved. Prendergast looked straight ahead and gave no sign of weakening. Just as the white shroud was being tied around his neck ho took a long breath and every one imagined that lie was about to make a speech. In a second, however, he had set his teeth together, while his face grew red and white by turns. The two deputies led him to tho center of the trap, quickly adjusted the noose and drew tho white cap over his head. His limbs seemed to tremblo for a second and then there was a movement from under the white cap as though ho were bracing himself. The signal was given to tho unseen ox ecutioiier and the body swung round and round. There was ono brief, con¬ vulsive struggle and the murder of Carter Harrison had been avenged. The body was surrounded by tho jury of physicians and as soon as life had been pronounced extinct it was cut down. Tho jail officials said after tho exe¬ cution that the condemned man had requested nn indulgence of twenty minutes after reaching tho scaffold for tho purpose of making a speech. He was dissuaded from his intention, how¬ ever, by Father Burry'. NATIONAL CAPITAL. NEWS AND GOSSIP OF WASH¬ INGTON CITY. Brief Notes Concerning tl»e Business of Our Govern*»y^nt. PflrHB.*- ■Atcd‘ Stale ft opeared with tho pa. jill. Since that time tu • O v41 gnifind body has allowed its proceedings to bo interrupted by no jars of any kind and tho celerity with which public business is being transacted, is phenomenal. It is semi-officially announced that tho conference committee will make a report upon many points of difference between the house and senate tariff bill Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning. Many unimportant sched¬ ules will be reported as agreed to, as well as the coal, iron and whisky sec¬ tions of the bill. Tho fact that the senate has adopted Senator Daniel’s resolution endorsing the action of President Cleveland in calling out tho military to suppress the riotous strikers, it is believed here, will havo a good effect upon the situn tion. Mr. Cleveland is determined that there shall bo no more destruc¬ tion of property by strikers, and that they shall provent none from work¬ ing who care to do so. It is probable that this strike will lead to the adoption of some act of congress looking to the arbitration of disagree¬ ments between corporations and em¬ ployes on the lino recommended in Mr. Cleveland’s letter to congress eight years ago. Several members of the executive committee of tlic Knights of Labor are in Washington urging the passage of the bill introduced by Sen¬ ator George, of Mississippi, which pro¬ vides for arbitration between employer and employe in case of disagreement. Treasury Report. Treasury finances show an improved condition due solely to largo receipts from internal revenue, which have reached for the half month of July $15,000,000 out of a total of $20,000, 000. The expenditures for tho same period aggregates $18,000,000. This places tho treasury in a comparatively easy position with available currency at large centers for delivery without having to transfer it from point to point to meet prospective drafts. The receipts up to date indicate a total for tho month of $35,000,000, while the ex¬ penditures will probably fall below $30,000,000, the larger part of the pension payment having already been made for the month. Customs dues still mu at a very low figure and in¬ ternal revenue receipts are not ex¬ pected to continue to flow in at the same rate, as much of the spirits in bond have already been taken out in anticipation of the increased tax on whiskey. When the tariff bill passes internal receipts will, of course, de¬ cline materially, but customs receipts are expected to respond to the changes in the tariff bill and resume their nor¬ mal volume. Cholera Spreading In Russia. The cholera continues to spread with alarming rapiility throughout tho city of St. Petersburg, Russia. Bun day 218 fresh eases and sixty-nine deaths were reported. From July 8th to Sunday at noon, 875 cases and 294 deaths have been reported. The ex¬ ceptional measures used in the period of 6uch an epidemic are being enforced rigidly.

At midnight Thursday night both houses of the Louisiana general as¬ sembly finally adjourned, the present session of the legislature having ex¬ pired by limitation. A 1’irmingham, Ala., special says: The proposition of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railway company for mining coal was rejected Saturday by the striking miners. The general manager of the company has said that ho will put new men in the strikers’ places. Tho entire working force of the Mo¬ bile and Ohio railroad shops at Whist¬ ler, a suburb of Mobile, Ala., have been laid off on the ground that the strike having laid off freight trains, there is no work for tho shops. Three huudred and twenty-five men are thrown out of An enthusiastic mass meeting wtif held at the courthouse in MeridiaA, Miss., Saturday by several hundred populists. An organization was per¬ fected. Committees wore appointed for a vigorous campaign. Tho strike situation was discussed by tho speak¬ ers. They stated that tho cause was bad legislation. Captain W. H. Murdnugh, supervis¬ ing inspector of steam vessels for tho third district, with headquarters at Norfolk, Va., has received his commis¬ sion at tlio treasury department. It had been withheld under the impres¬ sion that he had never been pardoned for serving in tho confederate navy. His name, however, was found in tho pardon act of 1885 and ho was qualified at oneo. Freight trains were run on both tho Louisville and Nashville and the Nash¬ ville, Chattanooga nnd St. Louis rail¬ roads Thursday, as regularly as if there had been no strike. The yards in which hundreds of ears had accumu¬ lated were about cleaned up during the day. Both roads will retain tho new men employed before tho strike was broken, while those men whore fused to take out trains will not bo given employment. A Jackson, Miss., special says: The third congressional convention was held Thursday in Vicksburg. Con¬ gressman Catcliings was unanimously renominated. A resolution was passed unqualifiedly endorsing his course in congress. Tho national administration was enthusiastically endorsed in every detail and the action of the president in suppressing tho strike wns com¬ mended. General Catcliings was Iho only Mississippi congressman who voted for the unconditional repoal of tho •rehasing clause of tho Sherman act. SHOT FROM AMBUSH.

Several on both sides wero Ono of the wounded strikers was drag¬ ged off by his friends.

A CAISSON EXI’LODKS, Killing Throe Soldiers ami Wounding Many Others.

There is no expla¬ jectural. nation of the The exposition caisson had except just rattled no n across the Lake Shore railroad track ou Fortieth street when the explosion occurred, sending projectiles in every direction. Every pane of glass within two blocks was broken. It is conject¬ ured that the jolting over the railroad track ignited a fuse or some loose powder, setting off all the shells in tho box. Wrecked l>y Striker*. At lff:30 o’clock Sunday morning a freight train of thirty cars standing on an incline switch on the Bennsylva uia track at Indianapolis was cut loose by strikers and ran down at a terrifi*: speed into the Home, Brewing Compa ny’s stables, causing a complete wreck of both train and stables. One dozen brewery wagons were demolished, and the teams of horses were fairly slaugh¬ tered. The loss to the brewery, in ad dition to that of the railroad company, will lie many thousands of dollars.

There was a faith euro, a hot water cure, a cold water euro and a cure for tho blues. Think¬ ing that in these days of business de¬ pression and financial stringency, when more or less nocuto attacks of the bines are so prevalent as to bo almost, epi¬ demic, a reliable remedy would be a delight, wo give the one roooianiomlod nt. this cure, tin his arrival at tho euro for tho blues the patient was shown into a small office where sat a physi¬ cian, After questioning the patient a little he gave him a small box, eliarg i a few cents for it, and charging him to keep the contents a close aeeret. hi tho box was a slip of paper with these words: I * Let no day pass with out doing something for some one.” This prescription carefully taken m guaranteed to euro the most chronic ease. We hope if anyone under whose eye this may elianoo to fall, is suffering from this melancholy disease, lie will give it trial. ‘ a - —— Consumption of Horse Meal in Paris | In.the survey of tho butcher shops, | one duty nmio is to make sure that masquerading horses,ass j aud moats are not j ns beof. Not that their sale is forbid- . don. Ou the contrary the municipal laboratory itself has declared this sort of nourishment “an excellent thing." It simply demands that the meat be sold as equine and not bovine, and that the animal that furnish it bo not doorepid or diseased. Tho first, point iH regulated tho by estab¬ lishing shops especially for sold from sale of horse meat. Or, if it is a cart or in a regularly lieensed butch¬ er shop, by requiring that it bo mark¬ ed plainly. The sale of horse meat has grown to enormous proportions since the first shop was established in 1866. 'The estimate is, that it is eaten now in a third of the I’arisian house¬ holds. In 1891, 21,231 horses,61 mules mules, 275 asses were sold in the Paris shops. Thu meat costa about half us much as beef. McClure's Magazine.. Necessity of Irrigation Recognized. The necessity of improving the eon ditionsof agriculture by means <>l irri gallon has been recognized in nearly all states west of the Mississippi river. Conventions have been held in North Dakota, Month Dakota, Nebraska, Kan¬ sas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Wyoming and Moiitmmfor the purpose of more thoroughly study¬ ing the question of irrigation and iiscor tabling what should lie done by the national government aud the rtevoral slate governments in the way of legis¬ lation to secure the introduction and increase of irrigation facilities. The proceedings of these different conven¬ tions have liavo proved valuable to the states mentioned. In Dakota, Nolirufl )ta, Kansas and Colorado a large acre age has boon made available within the past two years utilizing the water supplies that huvo heretofore been al lowed to run to waste. The ro esults obtained luive been highly satisfactory, and due edort is being made to extend the irrigating facilities in these stub's. Ft.
