The Commander Tells Mrs. Palmer
How to Receive Eulalie.
REMEMB R THE PRINCE.
Is of Royal Blood, and the Corn-
gotten by the People Who
Are Presented*
Nkw York, June 3.—Commander
Davis has written a letter to Mrs. Pot
ter Palmer, of Chicago, giving her in
a tractions as to the sort of treatmem
the Infanta aua the royal party should
receive while in the Windy City.
The commander says:
“Out of consideration for American
customs and the objection in this coun
try to traveling on Sunday, her royal
highness will leave for-Chicago on Mon
day, instead of Sunday, as previously
arranged, arriving at Chicago one day
later.
“This ' will make some change in the
programme arranged for her reception.
“I have promised the mayor cl Chi
cago and others that you should have
the honor of giving tno first reception
to her royal highness. I have tele
graphed the mayor asking him to con
sult with yon as to the order in which
the entertainments for the first two
days shall all take place. Will yon and
the mayor and President Higginbotham
arrange among yourselves so that the
programme may be perfectly clear on
onr arrival?
“I have also requested that there be
no entertainment on the evening of her
highness’ arrival. “ The infanta suffers
a great deal from fatigue and has to be
very careful to not overexert, and I am
afraid she will find the long railroad
journey so tedious that she will not be
fit to take part in a big fnnction'imme-
diately after her arrival. With this
singular restriction. I leave the matter
entirely in the hands of yourselves.
“With regard to vour customs, I
should say that yon might ask as many
people to yonr reception as yon think
_ ought to be presented to her highness.
The men fatigue of receiving people is
not so serious, but you will, of course,
provide an apartment to which her
highness can retire at any moment If
she feels tired she will not hesitate to
exercise her prerogative of privacy.
“At her reception given by the Span
ish colony in New York the prince and
princess stood on the platform raised
about six inches above the floor and
with a ceu.de of arm chain behind
■ them. 1 do uot consider this at all ob
ligatory on yon, and it might be consid
ered as contrary to onr own customs.
Yoncandojnst as yon please about
this. Her highness is sensible enough
* to take things in this country just as
aha finds them. - — —
The commander then goes on to tell
Mrs. Palmer how she should meet the
Infanta, and asks her to “kindly warn”
the people that the prince is of “royal
blood, and should be bowed to.
The commander states that, in New
York, the people have made the mis
take of almost ignoring the prince.
He also instructs Mrs. Palmer in the
art of presenting people to the infanta,
and warns the people agalnft turning
their backs on royalty as they retire.
He kindly offers his services in present
ing the people, if she feels Inadequate
to the task.
After the presentation ths royal party
should be provided with supper “at a
separate table in a separate room,” but
he again kindly offers to instruct Mrs.
Palmer as to that point when he arrives
with his charge.
He closes by saying: “Yon can easily
understand that it is an impossibility
for a lady in so conspicuous a position
as that of her Toyal highness to meet
and know all ths persons in
one city who would like
to know her, or even are.
entitled to know her. So I would ad- 1
vise yon to make the list of those for ‘
whom yon desire a special presentation
as exclusive as possible.”

Sperry, who absconded 13 year* ago
with $80,000 belonging to Chautauqua
county, has returned and surrendered
himself to District Attorney Wood

gambling and speculation, and has been
wandering- all over the world. He told
the district attorney that he was tired
of that kind of life, and wanted to
stand trial for his offense. He 4 70
years old, and it is believed that efforts
will be made to have the case dropped

ing a 10 year old girl. Clara Earsinski.
March 38th, to accompany him to a
house of ill repute. The technical
charge is abduction. The accused was
admitted. to bail in $1,000. He could

Milwaukee, Jane 3.—The Plankin
ton bank has failed. This is the bank
to which money was sent from Chicago
when a ran took place on May 18. It
was said, but denied, that the money
came from P. D. Armour. This sus
pension is largely due to the failure of
F. A. Lappen & Co., and -the Lappen
Furniture company. The bank made
an assignment, the court appointing
William Plankiuton assignee. His bond
was fixed at $1,600,000.
NORFOLK AND WESTERN ALL RIGHT

Philadelphia, June 3.—President F.
J. Kimball, of the Norfold and Western
railroad, has made (he following official
statement: ,
Regarding the legal proceedings
against the Norfolk and Western' Rail
road company at Charleston, W. Vu.,
brought by the assignee of Thompson
Bros., contractors, against onr com
pany, we hare had no notice whatever ^ , .
a "L 8 ±r aVinS ^ br ° Ugh agaiB8t the B arp~fwMk The sTate
onr company.
‘‘Thompson Bros, had a contract up
on onr Ohio extension, and at the com
pletion of their work onr company owed
them about $39,000, but before a settle
ment could be made, Thompson , Bros,
failed and made an assignment, when
some 20 of their creditors attached the
amonut due them, in onr hands, thus
preventing onr company from making
settlement with Thompson Bros.
“Onr company had no knowledge
whatever of the proceedings taken at
Charleston, except as appears in the
newspaper reports. Onr company is
prepared at any time to deposit the
amount in dispute with the court for
distribution.”
As a matter of fact, out of the total
expenditure of $7,000,000 upon-the Ohio
extension, the amount still due conti ac
tors is but $40,000, which includes the
$39,000 dne Thompson Brqe.

Th6 state senate has been sitting as a

PIANOS FROM HASELTON &
DOZIER’S Music House are certainly
the favorites with the music t»sobers
and musioiaua. Last week Miss Hailie
Hodgson’s music olass gave a most
charming recital and the world-renown
ed I vers & Pond Pianos were used. Oo
Friday night an elegant recital will be
given at the opera house by the pupils
of Mima* Mell, and the matchless Behr
Bros., and popular Kimball Pianos will
bensed. In about two weeks the Lacy
Cobb Institute, which is not only the
pride of Athens, bat of the State, will
have its commencement, and the Behr
Bros. Pianos will be used exclusively
of order.
Then, as a last resort, Mr. Simonton
asked-that the clerk be authorized to
furnish a certified copy of the evidence
so that the case might be appealed to
to. the supreme oonrt of the United
States.
This was also overrated, and on mo
tion of Mr. Barton a resolution was
then unanimously adopted formally de
claring Judge Dubose convicted of mis
demeanor in office and forever barring
him from holding office in the-state.
The costs, amounting to about $9,000,
were'then charged to the defendant and
the court adjourned.
GLASS FACTORY TO CLOSE.
Th* Combine I* Very Much Overstocked
Pittsburg. June 8.—It is stated on
good authority that a general shutdown
of the plate glass factories of the coun
try will taka place within a month, at
least, for an indefinite period.
It is given out as a reason for this ac
tion that the factories in the combine
have become so overstocked that a sus
pension of the production is an absolute
necessity, not because of dull trade, bnt
because the factories have no longer
any room to store their unsaleable pro
duct.
The opponents of organization hint
that the above is not the real object ot
the suspension of production, but that
the trust means to diminish the stock
of glass in the market and then raise
prices.
The general stoppage contemplated
will bring serious inconvenience to the
thousands of men employed at the fac
tories.
D. E. Wheeler, agent of the trust,
■ays that three of the plate glass works
have already closed because of the dull
ness of business and admits that it pos
sible that others will cease operation, as
they are greatly overstocked.

A Fatal Fall of Barth.
Denver, June 3.—An awful accident
occurred at the Busk end of the Bosk-
Ivpnhoe railroad tunneL It was cause*
by a heavy fall of dirt, which struck
gang of men while they were at woi
and completely buried them. A force
of miners went at once to the rescue

men. It was found that three of them
were dead and three injured, one prob
ably fatally.
1 More Murders In Mexico.
City of Mexico, June 8.—News has-
reached here of the murder and rob

were quickly killed. A troop of rifles
are in close pursuit of the robbers.

The following item, clipped from the
Ft. Madison (Iowa) Democrat, contains
information well worth remembaring:

ing and braising his leg and arm quite
■evenly, was cured by one 50 oent bot
