A MILLIONAIRE MISER.

New YORK correspondence.
The heaviest stakeholder in the Pa
ciic Bank of this city, also in the Pa
ciic Insurance Company, died at his
residence in Westminster county, yes
terday. He was bachelor aged sew
enty years, and leaves fortune Of
$2,500,000. The money was collected
from his business as drover, and what
proved to be judicious investments.
Mr.. Merritt was an eccentric man, and
left no will. He had been frequently
urged to do so during his recent sick
ness, but refused on the plea that he
would get well. He added, eff I do
not, I hope those who receive my mon
ey will have as much pleasure in spend
ing it, as had making it, With all
his vast wealth, SO close was he in his
habits (he lived all alone) that he re-
fused to buy carpet for his floor, and
had hardly sufficient clothing for his
bed. Indeed from his surroundings,
one would suppose him very poor
man; yet he was the virtual owner Of
a National Bank and a we'll known
Insurance company. Mr.. Campbell,
President of the Pacific Bank, estimat-
es Mr.. Merritt's wealth at So, 500, 900,
while others place it between $3,000,-
600 and $4,0OO,OOO.

A CENTENNIAL SIGHT.

Philadelphia Letter In Boston Journal.
l saw this afternoon, on horse car
on Chestnut street, a curious medly
of nationalities. There were two del
icate Spaniards, wrapped in long
cloaks, such as one sees in Madrid and
Valencia. These Spanish exotics were
ranged on either side of blonde and
burly German, who refused to under
stand their hints to change his seat
and allow them to sit together. On the
same side Of the car were two young
Swedes, dressed in short frieze coats
with green collars, which the Ger
mans and Scandinavians so universally
adopt when they go abroad. These
rosy and healthy sons of the North
talked in loud voices, as also did the
Spaniards, and were naturally the OBJ
served of all observers. Beyond the
Swedes sat an English youth, of downy
chin, faultless umbrella and sixteen
shilling trousers. In the corner was a
darkey rolling his eyes, and opening
his thick lips with wonder as he heard
the Bable chorus, and opposite him
sat an old Irish woman with market
basket. This, added to the Americans
crowding the remainder of the car,
made a good variety, which l have
not exaggerated in the slightest par
ticular.

A TERRIBLE EXPLOSION.

Late English files bring accounts of
a terrible dynamite explosion in
Wales, which surpasses in horror any,
thing since the Bremerhaven affair.
The occurrence took place on April
81 in a railway tunnel in process Of
construction at Cymmer, near MAJESTY,
Wales. The tunnel was to be LOCO
yards in length, and operations were
carried on night and day. The night
gang were at work when the explosion
took place. There were thirty men
employed at the time, and of these
thirteen were killed outright, and
their bodies found in a horribly mutt
lated condition. In the dynamite box
was days store of the explosive ma
terial- about 200 pounds and also
several pounds Of gun cotton and a
quantity of caps. This magazine was
located about $50 yards from the
mouth Of the tunnel, and midway be-
tween the mouth and the terminus of
the excavations already made. The
explosion shattered space in the tun-
mel sixty yards in area, and the only
surprise is that the entire gang instead
OF thirteen should not have been killed
outright.

LOWERING THEIR CHARGES.

Philadelphia Special, 18TH
The reaction in public sentiment re-
garding the numerical success of the
exposition is best shown by the action
of one of the leading hotels, the Grand.
which to-day reduced it's price to S.. so
a day, the old rate. The hotel-keepers
throughout the city are astonished as
the days pass by without bringing any
of that vast crowd of foreign visitors
they have been confidently expecting.
The high rates have been adhered fo
tenaciously, but this move on the mart
of the Grand may cause general tum-
BILE in prices. 1t is probable, however
that the large hotels will hold out AZ,
long as possible. There are TO-DAY
scarcely more outside people stopping
in Philadelphia than can be counted in
Chicago any day in the week. There
was a large gathering here on tho
opening day, but the people all went
home the next day. If they come hack
before the 18th of July it win be
wonder.

Two Ducks.

From the Cleveland Leader.
Cleveland drummer was in Elyria.
a few Sundays ago, and while sitting
IN his room, heard from the next
room, the mysterious question and
answer:
*'Whose ducky are you?''
Else your ducky!'
A few moments passed, during
which the drummer sat in open,
mouthed wonder, and the silence was
again broken:
Whose ducky are you!''
''I'se your ducky!''
Unable to stand it much longer
alone the Clevelander hurried down to
the office, learned that a neWly.mar.
ried couple were in the house, invited
three other drummers to hear the fun.
and tip-tOed back to his room. The
wicked quartette crammed their hand
kerchiefs in their mouths. and during
the next quarter of an hour heard that
1ond conundrum put and answered no
less than four times by the uncon-
scious rustic and his blushing bride.
At dinner, as luck would have it.
the bride and groom were seated be.
tween two of the drummers, while the
original discoverer of the bonanza sat
opposite. The table had been cleared
of the substantials and order given for
desert. At that moment spirit of
mischief took entire possession of the
Clevelander. Leaning across the ia.
BILE, he looked archly at his nearest
friend and in dulcet tones propounded
the cOnundrum:
''WhOse ducky are YOU o.
The other chap was equal to the
emergency, and in tones of affected
sweetness got in his answer:
''1'se your ducky!''
Two scarlet, rustic faces, the hutter
of white dress through the doorway,
two vacant seats at the table and four
crazy drummers laughing till the tears
ran, flashed across the vision of the
spectators as the curtain fell.

BLACK HILLS SPO

a telegram from Sioux City to the
Chicago Times says Louis Trudell, of
that city, who is in the Black Hills,
writes from Custer City to his wife,
under date of April %, as follows:
'sArrived here after hard trip, safe,
but am afraid to no purpose, for am
nearly satisfied the Black Hills are the
biggest humbug ever passed off on the
people, and this is the opinion of old
California miners who are here. There
are thousands of men here, and none
of them making anything, and they
areleaving daily. On yesterday party
of 40 started back. There's not a
day passes but somebody gets killed
by Indians. They come right into
town and kill men. We cannot go out
of doors without danger, and are com.
PEELED to take our guns with us on all
excursions. The Indians are getting
worse and worse every day. All TIE
glowing stories you read in the papers
about this country arelies, with scarcely
an exception. AS to the Indian stories,
they are thousand times worse than
represented. There are hundreds of
men here on the verge of starvation.
While writing this letter man has
been killed by Indians close to the
camp Joseph Trudell, also from
there, writes as above, and says: ''Old
Sitting Bull, the famous Indian chief,
has sent in word that the miners must
leave the Hills, or he will make a
graveyard of that paticular part of his
domain Several others write in a
similar strain, and intimate their in
tention to return as soon as they can
safely do so. Several men from Illi-
nois had arrived there with through
tickets to the Hills, but have conclud-
ed to return home, and were about town
trying to dispose of their tickets.
They didn't find any purchasers.

A YOUNG LADY SCIENTIFICALLY 1NCLIN-

Special telegram to Chicago times.
A young lady in Baltimore who must
die of an abdominal affection requests
that after death her body be dissected
for the benefit of science. In a letter
to Resident Physician Ashoy, she says:
''As my death must speedily result
from causes which have baffled science
and confused the best medical minds,
I desire that you shall perform upon
my body, after death, an examination
and ascertain what it is that has ter
minated my life. request that such
examination shall be made privately
and respectfully by yourself and few
of your medical students and medical
friends. I have furthermore urged
my parents and friends to allow such
an examination, and to inform you
at once as to my death in case of such
an event, since l shall go to my home
from the hospital to pass the remain
der of my days. A post-mortem ex-
animation can do me no possible harm,
and it may benefit science, and through
it some other unfortunate affected like
myself. Moreover desire to express
in this manner the gratitude feel to
the many medical men who have Ia
bored for my relief. Lastly it is a
duty owe to my sex and my God"
She will leave the hospital and return
to her home in the city, and in the
event of her death her request will be
complied with by the physicians named
in her will,

him that if he (the czar) were to COM

said the car to the general. The lat

to pieces on the sea-beaten crags be-
low. Aurelien Scholl tells, in the
Evenement, story of Russian obedi-

in it's results than this. The Car

FASHION NOTES.

Knitted silk purses are again re-
vived.
New wells are seen made of ecru net.
with chenille dots.
For summer, fne.thread gloves,
either ecru or white.
The shapes of the bonnets are rath.
:er smaller than last year.
Rolled-gold jewelry is every wear
more extensively patronized.
The long Saxon glove, without but
tons, are adapted for demi.toilets.
Bonnets of coarse straw, known as
"peasant's straw are fashionable.
Rubiria is the name of new mod.
Ell for a close fitting garibrielle style of
polonaise.
The black grenadines checked with
gold and silver threads find but few
purchasers.
Small checks and stripes rule this
season in silk wooden, as we'll as in
cotton goods.
Muslins will be confined to house
wear entirely, and for the country in
July and August.
Nothing has been introduced to take
the place OF the almost indescribable
black suit so long worn for street pur-
poses.
There is marked effort to popular
ize gilt embroidery and braid, but as
yet it is seen only on the new house
jacket.
Morning wrappers are now made of
cream-colored cashmere, trimmed
with cream wooden lace and cardinal
red ribbons.
Novelties in ornament are offered
in white coral, carved conch shell.
and in smooth oval pebble stones of
dark slate color.
A decided novelty in summer Dress
es is furnished in those composed of
Indian cambria, with the fronts
checked and the back striped.
Jackets cut by pattern out of the
piece-lace, now made in close imita.
ton Of real lace, are largely taking
the place of wooden ones, as they are
not only less expensive, but can be
fitted to the figure with greater precis-
ion than the ready-made ones.

BRISTOW'S ARMY RECORD.

A statement having appeared that
Bristow resigned his position in the
army because negros were enlisted, a
fellow soldier says in the Globe Demo-
GRAFT:
Mr.. Bristow was mustered into the
service as Lieutenant Colonel of the
9Th Kentucky Cavalry, on September
8, 1862, the term of that regiment be-
ing limited to one year. He was pro-
NOTED to the Colonelcy in January,
1868, when Mr.. Shackelford was COM
missioned as a Brigadier- General, and,
with his command, was mustered out
upon the expiration of its term Of
service, on September %, 1863. He
did not resign, as your paragraph
would seem to intimate. I was con-
nected with the service in Kentucky
during the whole Of that period, and
know the facts to be as stated.

troubled, and begged him, with tears
IN her eyes, to pardon the regiment.
He consented, and dispatched a squad
to call the exiles back. But the reg
lment had obeyed the order so well
that it was impossible to overtake it.
The squad sent out of course continued
the pursuit, and to this day nothing
has ever been heard of the regiment
or the squad. Perhaps they were over
Whelmed by Siberian SHOWS. Perhap.
they persisted Of starvation. Perhap
tney are galloping yet. Perhaps tn
story was a lie.

NOT so BAD.

NO1 ~ DALI.
Just on the eve of his return to Eng
land, the Prince of Wales did a thing
which in the opinion of subjects, has
gone far to redeem the revels which
he INDUCED in while in India. Dur
ing his stay in Spain he was much
feted and pampered by Alfonso and
his mobiles, who prepared bull-fght
specially in honor of the Prince, and
invited him to be present. He declined
and staid away, and this forbearance
on his part is noted by many of the
leading English journals as an instance
of remarkable virtue. In view of the
elephant hunts and other battles in
which he was engaged in India, and re.
Numbering also the arena fights at Ba-
roda, where elephants, buffaloes and
other animals fought with each other,
it is hard to see where the humane
disposition of Albert Edward is made
manifest on this occasion, especially
since he had been already Informed
of the displeasure of large portion
of his future subjects in regard to the
orgies in which he INDUCED. It is a
queer commentary on the conduct Of
their future sovereign when such
small exhibitions of self-denial call
forth so unanimous burst Of enthu-
siasm, but if the British are satisfied :,
others have little right or inclination
to complain.
