The suite of parlors were daintily decked with flow- ers, chiefly great bowls and curious vases of chrysanthemums. Indeed, from the profu- sion and variety of those blossoms the recep- tion might he called a "cury*»iitneinuiu tea."

In the rear parlor the blossoms were red, creating a charming ruddy glow against the black pan- eling.

City Engineer Morgan is finding the ob- structions in the Main Lake sewei in San Pablo avenue, between its entrance to the avenue at Twentieth street and exit at Twenty-second, much greater than he ex- pected, but he expects to havo it cleared to Twenty-second street in a few days. There is a great deal in the sewer for the two block!) between San Pablo avenue and West street, but beyond that it Is comparatively clear to the. bay west of the railroad, north of the Sixteenth-street depot. The wooden box across th» marsh from Adeline street to the bay will have, to be replaced before long and will cost a large Bum of r.ioney. A member of the Holiness Band, named B. F. Weber, imbibed too much bei-T on fciat- nrelay, and became temporarily demented and took some morphine. Hi) was pumped out at tue Receiving Hospital and his liie was saved.

The young man, Henry Peters, who foil while attempting to board the train Thurs- day night, passed a very bud day yesterday, anil little hope is entertained of his life.

Dan Crowiey and James Horlock were arrested yesterday afternoon for cruelty t» animals on Piedmont avenue, outside the citr limits. They were overdriving a team of horses. They were lodged in the Ciiy Prison for a couple of hours and then taken to the County Jail. LAWLESS ROMANCE. Morn uf Jennie .Miller, tho Female Ilorfle- Tblef. Since the publication of a news article in a Waco paper concerning a Miss Jennie Sadler, who was captured with a stolen horse iv her possession, some newsy and rather sensational developments have been made in the matter. When Miss S.idler wa3 arrested nenr Valley Mills by the parties in pursuit of the stolen property, she was pu in charge of that übiquitous Bill Yoakum, who can almost .scent v borse-tbief across the county, with instructions to deliver her to Major Donnell. Sheriff of liosque County, which he did. That night fhe made her escape from the private, residence of said Sheriff, and. crossing the liosqne, took from the lot of Mr. Frank Gaudy a good horse aud started off toward Iredell. At Iredell a woman In her night-clothes, all tattered and lorn, called upon Dr. Sellers for medicine, and upon obtaining it immedi- ately mounted her horse and in the dark- ness moved aff toward Hamilton County. In the pursuit next morning by the Sheriff and his posse it « as learned that h strange woman had passed northwest liuriu^ tlie ni};lit and was perhaps the escaped prisoner. Following mi the trail into the following night Sheriff Donnell came upon his woman in Hamilton County, who Had tied up her horse near a hay slack aud was herself soundly sleeping In the stack. Shfl returned without any compulsion and is now iv the County Jail. She tells a great many different tale 3 about her connection with a gnng of horse- thieves from Palo Pinto County. She says she kept camp for the boys, took in the neighboring country during tho day, located tho beat horses for the boys in the garb of a woman, but at night dressed in men's clothing and piloted her pals to the located horses. It appears from her statements, and these have been substantiated by credible Witnesses, that she had a lover with whom she. had clandestine meetings against the whiles of her father, and finally agreed to run off with him and share with him some of the thrilling adventures of an out- law. Miss Sadler dressed most of the time in boy's clothing, and nppears to have been saddled with the responsibility of person- ally taking charge Of the stolen horses, es- pecially In tho time of dongw. She is a woman of nerve, about 20 years old, lias been raised in the country, is a fine rider, handles a 44-calibei 1 with the dexterity of a man, and is most respectably connected both in Comanche and Basque counties. — Mcri- den special to Fort Worth Gazntte. Good Measure. We were a little amused one day last week to see the method omployed by one of our local wcjodinen to measure wood. Ue had piled the wood up nicely mid thon se- lecting the erookedest stick in tlie pile, bent nearly in tha form of a bow, lie pioceen'ed to measure off tho four-foot lengths. It re- minded us very much of a story wo once heard "f a prominent wood-dealer in Stock- ton. When remonstrated with because tha wood was not four feet long, he took up one of th" very crooked sticks and explained, "Why, madam, you sen this wood is very crooked, if the sticks were only straightened out they would bo over four (eat tang," and the woman went her way perfectly satisfied. — Calavei as Prospect.

There is a cave near Ktekwood, a st.tion ou tho Denver and Kio Grande P.ailroad, which has been visited by many person. No particular mention of tlie cave lias been nude as it seems to be little worthy of no- tice. On Sunday last a number of pleasure- seekers left this city to jolu a party at Kockwood who had plumed to visit the cave. About 4 o'clock in tho afternoon tlie members of the party, having disposed of their dinner, began to climb the hill, near the top of which the mouth of the cave is located. After niuc'i oxflrtion the foremost of the party reached the mouth of the cave, and, being in advance of his companions, they were startled to see him fall backward into the low oak brush n* it he had bean thrown from acatapault. His companions pushing forward more vigorously, soon came to his rescue and found him recovering, not niucli hurt, but slightly scratched and somewhat dazed. He could give no explanation of his suddeu removal from the opening to the cavern. Curious tn Know whit the cause was, tho entire company in a body puthr.d up the hill, which has a particularly steep descent near the mouth of the cave. To the aston- ishment of the whole number, the instant alter stepping into the cave, they found themselves all piled together in a spot nenr where they had first landed. It took but a little while to recover from the entangle- ment, when they began to inquire the cause nf this sudden excitement. They all agreed that they had seen uotoing to causa such a thing, nnd they were curious to know the reason lor tlie phenomenon. i!ut how to find out what they wished w«s the thing to decide. At last it was determined that the strong- est gentleman of the party should gain a. po- sition at the side of the entrance, and thus protected, get an opportunity toreconnoiter. So, taking a drcultoas route and avoiding a position directly in front of the opening, they soon fouud themselves close besidu the entrance. Cautiously putting his head out beyond the protecting wall, the foremost i eerod it. His hat immediately took flight down the declivity, but he was thus made aware of the exact *t tte of affairs. The philosophy of ihe current of the air in i ayes suddenly dawned upon him. As is well known, tho air of a warm day in sum- mer is much lighter on the outside of a cave or cellar than it is inside. Consequently, the cold, heavy air rushes out with great violence— enough in this case to cause the trouble spoken nf, and throw the parly down the hill.—Denver Sun. SHE TURNED TALE, But Wa» Oulckly Ai-iit <-<! Tliat No Harm U'onlil Come to Mat. The hard life of the saleswoman at the counter of n Brent retail store is often ren- dered less burdensome by the kindly acts of fellow-workers and sometimes by the gen- erosity of employers. ItIs not infrequently the case that girls are at their posts in these stores who are not strong enough to do the work properly. Under such circumstances the public which must be served is generally i ess indulgent than the employer. At a great retail store in IjTston, the girls at the jjlovo counter work almost constantly in fitting gloves to customers' hands. Tlie work is arduous, for the saleswoman must lean over thn counter in dome: it. and her back often aches with the strain upon it. Atone of thexo glove counters ft young Kir! whs employed, wno was in consumption, though perhaps neither she nor her rela- tives were fully aware of the fact. Though shn knew she was 111 .-he hesi- tated to leave off work, for the loss of one ot her parents nnd a subsequent marriage had made the circumstances of her home life uu- plea want to her; and, moreover, she did not know win-re she should turn for tue $0 a week which she named. The lunches which she brousht to the store indicated extreme, poverty or unkind- ness at home, and the other girl* \u25a0»* ''er counter oltin siiared their lunclies with her, pressing upon her the most nourishing and delicate hits tlr.it they had brought. One day she came to the store looking unusually pale and and weak, and wl en an exacting customer required her services ia fitting gloves, she was slow In making Ihe effort which tbe customer— a woman— seemed dis- posed to exact Tho customer scolded, and possibly the girl, wexk aud ill,answered impertinently. At any rate, the customer went to the Su- perintended and complained sharply of the saleswoman's conduct. "1 am very sorry, madam," said the Su- perinten'ii-nt, "but the girl b ill to-day." "Tiieu sha ouubt not tj be here," said the lady. Th- re was nothing more that cmld be said, but that there was no unkiudness On tlin nart of the saleswoman's superiors is evident from the fact tfiat within a day or two her case, was reported to the head of the firm, Mr. Jordan, as one worthy of benevolent actiou. "Send her to me," said Mr. Jordan. The poor girl turned pale when she was told that Mr. Jordan wished to sse her, and became suddenly faint. She feared that her discharge— a thing more to ha dreaded than any hardship of lier daily task— was coining. But she was quickly assured that no harm would come to her. The proprietor questioned her kindly about her work, her iuinily and her health. Learning from her that she had friends in Maine, he asked her to ascertain how much it would cost her to go thither. When she had learned, Mr. Jordan gave her money for her fare anil expenses; and not only this, but p.iil her wa^es reaularlv. until two months later, her strength tailed her vi terly, and death name.— Youth's Com- panion. TEMPLE OF THE LAW. Some Recent Pointers About (lie Hills Huiiilini;. It Will Contain Eight Thousand Volumes of Law Reports as the Nucleus of a Legal Library. The beautiful architectural details of the new Mills Building on th« corner lot Mont- gomery and Bush streets have already re- ceived notice in the columns of The Cam. It remains to be added that the building •.".ill have a part of its upper space devoted to the purposes of a law library, which, when completed, will be among the finest of its kind in the world. It will receive 8000 volumes as a starter. The Innovation arose out of a query casu- ally propounded by D. O. Mills, the owner of the building, to a young lawyer of this city as to whether a complete law library would be appreciated. An affirmative reply was given, and the books were forth- with ordered by Mr. Mills. They will in- clude the English reports from the year books down to the present time, as well as the reports of Ireland, Scotland and Can- ada, the United States Supreme .Court and the reports of each of the forty-two Stutos of the Union, together with their codes. Law students studying in the offices of the tenants iv the building will also have ac- cess to :i choice collection of legtl text- books. The library will be :>0 feet by 40, ao.l several attendants will be required to look after :h.^ wants of tha patrons. Tho building is advancing rauidly to com- pletion. The upper eight Maries arc built oi cream-colored Roman brick, enriched with biitt terra-cotta. The ntnuda will be roofed by an ornamental skylight, ami will lie reached from the Laura court side. Four high-speed elevators will run from tho base- ment to the attic. The fireproofing of the building Is theo- retically complete, the steel columns and beams being coated with tire-clay, hard binned. The columns are surrounded !>v an air space and by Hollow tiitts. ana the floor beam- are protected by arches of nol- I w tile set between them and by tiie con- crete filling on top of the arctic-. Among the novel features are an inde- pendent electric light system, a set of pumps and tiinks for the elevator service and a battery of wnter-lnbe Vftfety boilers. Tiff! MILLS BUICDIXO.

U{, UK MEN ABOUT TOWN. Short Stories Gathered From the Hotel Corridors. It Was a Costly Excuse— The Chinese Ver- sion—Carried Out the Boss' Orders. Foster and Garfield. For many years one of the most familiar liL'ures about the clubs and on the streets of St Louis was that of George Bain, the mill- ing man and politician, whose death was announced by telegraph last week. In his later years Mr. Bain was in rather strait- ened circumstances financially, but at one time he was classed among the wealthy men of a city that abounds in capitalists. The loss of his fortune was peculiar. Some six or seven years prior tohis death Mr. Bain was the owner of the Anchor flouriiie-niills, the most extensive of their kind in the West, and representing a value of nearly three-quarters of a million of dollars. Their owner was a happy-go-lucky fellow, careless in his business methods and more fond of a quiet bottle with a con- genial friend than of close application to the demands of trade. The mills were heavily insured, but the policy—as policies will sometimes— expired and its renewal was neglected. Within twenty-four hours of its expiration fire broke out in the engine-room at night, and before the 11 lines could be checked the huge struc- ture was a mass of ruins. By this unlucky accident Mr. Bain's entire fortune was swept out of existence, ana he was left, a middle-aged man, to begin life anew. At the time of the lire the (owner was at his club with a party of friends and. all un- conscious of his loss, he proceeded home in a Carriage at an early hour In the morning. The wine had been unusually good, and the result was that Mr. Bain was In a state, of great hilarity. As he alighted from his con- veyance at his gate, the driver said: "1 am very sorry to hear of your misfortune, sir." " Misfortune ? " inquired the other. " What misfortune i- that?" "Have you not beard? Why the Anchor mills were burned down at midnight, aud art) completely destroyed." "You don't tell me! And that darned policy run out too. Well, well, that is a little hard, but there is one blessing about it; I've been cudgeling my brains for an boor to find an excuse to give mv wjfo for Staying out so Lite, and now I have it. It is an ill wind that blows nobody good," and he mounted the steps with an unsteady step and disappeared. Obeyed Ilia Order*. Colonel Andrews is not happy. He had hoped to be a party to the reorganization of the local Democracy, but his ambition is blighted. When tho matter was taken be- fore the committee his friends i leaded his cause with great fervor, but all to no pur- pose. It was charged against the gallant Colonel that ho was an intimate friend of Buckley, and that ended the matter. In opposition it was related by some un- feeling member that the Colonel had been too willing to obey the dethroned boss. A few years ago, it was charged, Andrews was made Chairman of a Democratic Municipal Convention, and Buckley, in instructing him, said: "Now, Colonel, remember that 1 desire seven candidates for Supervisors nominated before an adjournment is taken." The convention went along smoothly un- til six were chosen and then a wrangle oc- curred. A stormy scene ensue! and In the midst of it some one sprang to his feet with a motion to adjourn. Here was the Colo- nel's opportunity. Bringing down his gavel with ii resounding whack, he said severely: "The Chair will refuse to entertain the mo- tion. It is well known to this convention that but six candidates for Supervisors have been nominated and you gentlemen know that we are required to name seven before adjourn- ment." 1 hat settled it. A Question or Finance. "To any one who has lived for any length of time in Central and South America," said a gentleman at the Occidental yester- day, "it is not all surprising that revolu- tions are of such frequent occurrence, for a more pernicious lot of Governments were never called iuto existence since the world began. A few years aia I was living in Nicaragua, and an incident occurred which nearly resulted in a revolt and which will illustrate their methods. The Cabinet was discussing a revision of the Customs laws and it was proposed to make a reduction of 20 per cent on certain dutiable article. In one class of merchandise there was an im- port duty of 30 cents per 100 pounds, and under tim new schedule it was admitted at 30 cents. The President called the atten- tion of the Minister of Finance to it and remarked that It whs an error, as it caused a 40-per-cent reduction. The Minister took issue with him and maintained that it was but 20 per cent. The argument waxed hot, and a challenge to a duel followed the resig- nation of the Minister. A revolt was im- pending, but was finally quieted ; but the dispute was never settled, as the scientific men of the republic could never agree as to who was right." r". ~ ~~~ ——~ Footer and Garfleltl. The recent visit of ex-Secretary Thomas J. Curran to this city recalls a bit of un- written history of the early days of the Garu'eld administration. At the time Currau was a member of the Ohio Senate, and the bosom friend of General Foster, the present Secretary of the Treasury. Garfield called Currau to Mentor, and commissioned htm to convey to Foster a proffer of the Post- master-Generalship in the incoming admin- istration. Currau asked that the oiler be made in writing, which was done.. Hero- turned at once to Cleveland, where he me. Foster. The latter was shown Garfield's letter and signified his acceptance. He accompanied General Garli'ld ta Washing- ton on a special train, and the news was given out to tho press that Foster was to be Postmaster-General. On the morning be- fore the inauguration Gurus-Id sent for Fos- ter and informed him that it would be necessary to ask him to decliue the Post- master's portfolio in favor of James of New York. Foster did so and returned to New York. From that time forward he and the President were at war, and it was only with the death of the latter that the conflict was bushel. ____^_^ Tim Benthen Chinee. In tho Western Addition there is a lady who is something of a social leader, and who has In her employ a Chinese boy of tender years who is, in some things, un- usually bright. He is npt in memorizing nursery rhymes, and for this reason grew to be a great favorite in his mistress' house- hold. A few days ago she gave a tea, and for the amusement of her guests she con- ceive i the idea of exhibiting her Chinese protege. Accordingly she had him arrayed in an unique costume, and at the proper time ushered him into the presence of her guests to recite "Little Bo Peep." in the words of which she had drilled him with some little care. Her horror can be better imagined than described when he delivered himself of the following: "Littee aairlee, no more saben him name, alia same PeeK-a- -800, losem smnlla sheep; no more can find; somebody say no fnnlaliim; tiyniby come back; ealchem tail back pocket." :--;:\u25a0 ': THE MORNING CALL.

LAWLESS ROMANCE.MornufJennie .Miller, tho Female Ilorfle-
Tblef.Since the publication of a news article in
a Waco paper concerning a Miss JennieSadler, who was captured with a stolenhorse iv her possession, some newsy andrather sensational developments have beenmade in the matter. When Miss S.idler wa3
arrested nenr Valley Mills by the parties inpursuit of the stolen property, she was puin charge of that übiquitous Bill Yoakum,who can almost .scent v borse-tbief acrossthe county, with instructions to deliver herto Major Donnell. Sheriff of liosque County,which he did. That night fhe made herescape from the private, residence of saidSheriff, and. crossing the liosqne, took fromthe lot of Mr. Frank Gaudy a good horseaud started off toward Iredell.
At Iredell a woman In her night-clothes,all tattered and lorn, called upon Dr. Sellersfor medicine, and upon obtaining it immedi-ately mounted her horse and in the dark-ness moved aff toward Hamilton County.In the pursuit next morning by the Sheriffand his posse it « as learned that h strangewoman had passed northwest liuriu^ tlieni};litand was perhaps the escaped prisoner.Following mi the trail into the followingnight Sheriff Donnell came upon his womanin Hamilton County, who Had tied up herhorse near a hay slack aud was herselfsoundly sleeping In the stack. Shfl returnedwithout any compulsion and is now iv theCounty Jail.
She tells a great many different tale 3about her connection witha gnng of horse-thieves from Palo Pinto County. She saysshe kept camp for the boys, took in theneighboring country during tho day, locatedtho beat horses for the boys in the garb ofa woman, but at night dressed in men'sclothing and piloted her pals to the locatedhorses. Itappears from her statements, andthese have been substantiated by credibleWitnesses, that she had a lover with whomshe. had clandestine meetings against thewhiles of her father, and finally agreedto run off with him and share with himsome of the thrilling adventures of an out-law. Miss Sadler dressed most of the timein boy's clothing, and nppears to have beensaddled with the responsibility of person-ally taking charge Of the stolen horses, es-pecially In tho time of dongw. She is awoman of nerve, about 20 years old, liasbeen raised in the country, is a fine rider,handles a 44-calibei1 with the dexterity of aman, and is most respectably connected bothin Comanche and Basque counties.

Good Measure.We were a little amused one day last
week to see the method omployed by one ofour local wcjodinen to measure wood. Uehad piled the wood up nicely mid thon se-lecting the erookedest stick in tlie pile, bentnearly in tha form of a bow, lie pioceen'edto measure off tho four-foot lengths. It re-minded us very much of a story wo onceheard "fa prominent wood-dealer inStock-ton. When remonstrated with because thawood was not four feet long, he took up oneof th" very crooked sticks and explained,"Why, madam, you sen this wood is verycrooked, if the sticks were only straightenedout they would bo over four (eat tang," andthe woman went her wayperfectly satisfied.—

POTT! AM) OUT THEY UO.
A Cavern In <..viiiut.ii lli.lKegenta thnIntrusion of Strangem.
There is a cave near Ktekwood, a st.tionou tho Denver and Kio Grande P.ailroad,which has been visited by many person.No particular mention of tlie cave lias beennude as it seems to be little worthy of no-tice. On Sunday last a number of pleasure-seekers left this city to jolu a party atKockwood who had plumed to visit thecave. About 4 o'clock in tho afternoon tliemembers of the party, having disposed oftheir dinner, began to climb the hill, nearthe top of which the mouth of the cave islocated.
After niuc'i oxflrtion the foremost of theparty reached the mouth of the cave, and,being in advance of his companions, theywere startled to see him fall backward intothe low oak brush n*it he had bean thrownfrom acatapault. His companions pushingforward more vigorously, soon came to hisrescue and found him recovering, not niuclihurt, but slightly scratched and somewhatdazed. He could give no explanation of hissuddeu removal from the opening to thecavern.
Curious tn Know whit the cause was, thoentire company in a body puthr.d up thehill, which has a particularly steep descentnear the mouth of the cave. To the aston-ishment of the whole number, the instantalter stepping into the cave, they foundthemselves all piled together in a spot nenrwhere they had first landed. It took but alittle whileto recover from the entangle-ment, when they began to inquire the causenf this sudden excitement. They all agreed
that they had seen uotoing to causa such athing, nnd they were curious to know thereason lor tlie phenomenon. i!ut how tofind out what they wished w«s the thing todecide.
At last it was determined that the strong-est gentleman of the party should gain a. po-sition at the side of the entrance, and thusprotected, get an opportunity toreconnoiter.So, taking a drcultoas route and avoiding aposition directly in front of the opening,they soon fouud themselves close besidu theentrance. Cautiously putting his head outbeyond the protecting wall, the foremostieerod it. His hat immediately took flightdown the declivity, but he was thus madeaware of the exact *t tte of affairs.
The philosophy of ihe current of the airin iayes suddenly dawned upon him. As iswell known, tho air of a warm day in sum-mer is much lighter on the outside of a caveor cellar than it is inside. Consequently,the cold, heavy air rushes out with greatviolence— enough in this case to cause thetrouble spoken nf, and throw the parlydown the hill.—Denver Sun.
SHE TURNED TALE,
But Wa» OulcklyAi-iit<-<! Tliat No HarmU'onlil Come to Mat.
The hard life of the saleswoman at thecounter of nBrent retail store is often ren-dered less burdensome by the kindly acts offellow-workers and sometimes by the gen-erosity ofemployers.ItIs not infrequently the case that girls
are at their posts in these stores who arenot strong enough to do the work properly.Under such circumstances the public whichmust be served is generally iess indulgentthan the employer.
Ata great retail store in IjTston, the girlsat the jjlovo counter work almost constantlyin fittinggloves to customers' hands. Tliework is arduous, for the saleswoman mustlean over thn counter in dome: it. and herback often aches with the strain upon it.
Atone of thexo glove counters ft youngKir!whs employed, wno was in consumption,though perhaps neither she nor her rela-tives were fully aware of the fact.
Though shn knew she was 111 .-he hesi-tated to leave off work, for the loss of one other parents nnd a subsequent marriage hadmade the circumstances of her home lifeuu-
plea want to her; and, moreover, she did notknow win-re she should turn for tue $0 aweek which she named.
The lunches which she brousht to thestore indicated extreme, poverty or unkind-ness at home, and the other girl* \u25a0»* ''ercounter oltin siiared their lunclies withher,pressing upon her the most nourishing anddelicate hits tlr.it they had brought.

TEMPLE OF THE LAW.
Some Recent Pointers About (lie
Hills Huiiilini;.
ItWill Contain Eight Thousand Volumes of
Law Reports as the Nucleus of aLegal Library.
The beautiful architectural details of thenew Mills Building on th« corner lot Mont-gomery and Bush streets have already re-ceived notice in the columns of The Cam.It remains to be added that the building•.".ill have a part of its upper space devotedto the purposes of a law library, which,when completed, willbe among the finest ofits kind in the world. It will receive 8000volumes as a starter.
The Innovation arose out of a query casu-ally propounded by D. O. Mills, the ownerof the building, to a young lawyer of thiscity as to whether a complete law librarywould be appreciated. An affirmativereply was given, and the books were forth-with ordered by Mr. Mills. They will in-clude the English reports from the yearbooks down to the present time, as well asthe reports of Ireland, Scotland and Can-ada, the United States Supreme .Court and
the reports of each of the forty-two Stutosof the Union, together with their codes.Law students studying in the offices of thetenants iv the building will also have ac-cess to :i choice collection of legtl text-books. The library will be :>0 feet by 40,
ao.l several attendants will be required tolook after :h.^ wants of tha patrons.
Tho building is advancing rauidly to com-pletion. The upper eight Maries arc builtoi cream-colored Roman brick, enrichedwith biitt terra-cotta. The ntnuda willberoofed by an ornamental skylight, ami willlie reached from the Laura court side. Fourhigh-speed elevators willrun from tho base-ment to the attic.
The fireproofing of the building Is theo-retically complete, the steel columns andbeams being coated with tire-clay, hardbinned. The columns are surrounded !>van air space and by Hollow tiitts. ana thefloor beam- are protected by arches of nol-I w tileset between them and by tiie con-crete fillingon top of the arctic-.
Among the novel features are an inde-pendent electric light system, a set of pumpsand tiinks for the elevator service and abattery of wnter-lnbe Vftfety boilers.

Short Stories Gathered From theHotel Corridors.
It Was a Costly Excuse— The Chinese Ver-
sion—Carried Out the Boss' Orders.
Foster and Garfield.
For many years one of the most familiarliL'ures about the clubs and on the streets ofSt Louis was that of George Bain, the mill-ing man and politician, whose death wasannounced by telegraph last week. In hislater years Mr. Bain was in rather strait-ened circumstances financially, but at onetime he was classed among the wealthy menof a city that abounds incapitalists.
The loss of his fortune was peculiar.Some six or seven years prior tohis deathMr. Bain was the owner of the Anchorflouriiie-niills, the most extensive of theirkind in the West, and representing a valueof nearly three-quarters of a million ofdollars. Their owner was a happy-go-luckyfellow, careless in his business methods andmore fond of a quiet bottle with a con-genial friend than of close application tothe demands of trade.
The mills were heavily insured, but thepolicy—as policies willsometimes— expiredand its renewal was neglected. Withintwenty-four hours of itsexpiration fire brokeout in the engine-room at night, and beforethe 11 lines could be checked the huge struc-ture was a mass of ruins. By this unluckyaccident Mr. Bain's entire fortune wasswept out of existence, ana he was left, amiddle-aged man, to begin life anew.
At the time of the lire the (owner was athis club with a party of friends and. all un-conscious of his loss, he proceeded home ina Carriage at an early hour In the morning.The wine had been unusually good, and theresult was that Mr. Bain was In a state, ofgreat hilarity. As he alighted from his con-veyance at his gate, the driver said: "1am very sorry to hear of your misfortune,sir.""
Misfortune ?"
inquired the other."
Whatmisfortune i-that?"
"Have you notbeard? Why the Anchormills were burned down at midnight, audart)completely destroyed."
"You don't tell me! And that darnedpolicy run out too. Well, well, that is alittlehard, but there is one blessing aboutit; I've been cudgeling my brains for anboor to findan excuse to give mv wjfo forStaying out so Lite, and now Ihave it. Itis an illwind that blows nobody good," andhe mounted the steps withan unsteady stepand disappeared.
Obeyed Ilia Order*.Colonel Andrews is not happy. He had
hoped to be a party to the reorganization ofthe local Democracy, but his ambition isblighted. When tho matter was taken be-fore the committee his friends ileaded hiscause with great fervor, but all to no pur-pose. It was charged against the gallantColonel that ho was an intimate friend ofBuckley, and that ended the matter.
In opposition it was related by some un-feeling member that the Colonel had beentoo willingto obey the dethroned boss. Afew years ago, itwas charged, Andrews wasmade Chairman of a Democratic MunicipalConvention, and Buckley, in instructinghim, said: "Now, Colonel, remember that1 desire seven candidates for Supervisorsnominated before an adjournment is taken."
The convention went along smoothly un-til six were chosen and then a wrangle oc-curred. A stormy scene ensue! and In themidst of itsome one sprang to his feet witha motion to adjourn. Here was the Colo-nel's opportunity. Bringing down his gavelwithiiresounding whack, he said severely:"The Chair willrefuse to entertain the mo-tion. Itis well known tothis convention thatbut six candidates for Supervisors have beennominated and you gentlemen know that weare required to name seven before adjourn-ment."1hat settled it.
A Question or Finance."To any one who has lived for any length
of time in Central and South America,"said a gentleman at the Occidental yester-day, "it is not all surprising that revolu-tions are of such frequent occurrence, fora more pernicious lot of Governments werenever called iuto existence since the worldbegan. A few years aia Iwas living inNicaragua, and an incident occurred whichnearly resulted in a revolt and which willillustrate their methods. The Cabinet wasdiscussing a revision of the Customs lawsand it was proposed to make a reduction of20 per cent on certain dutiable article. Inone class of merchandise there was an im-port duty of 30 cents per 100 pounds, andunder tim new schedule it was admitted at30 cents. The President called the atten-tion of the Minister of Finance to it andremarked that It whs an error, as itcauseda 40-per-cent reduction. The Minister tookissue with him and maintained that it wasbut 20 per cent. The argument waxed hot,and a challenge to a duel followed the resig-nation of the Minister. Arevolt was im-pending, but was finallyquieted ;but thedispute was never settled, as the scientificmen of the republic could never agree as towho was right." r".~~~~——~
