ASHES AND MoNEY-BorH.

The body Of the Barren de Palm was

believe. has never yet been printed ON
the Pacific Coast. The Baron Dc Palm
10 one OF the descendants Of an old
German family. He belonged to nu-
msrous European orders. and had u
large fortune. He came to this country
and lived here for years. Here he met
Col. Olcstt, Who Vas at that time ORA
matte editor Of the New York Sun and .
solicitor Of an insurance company. The
Colonel vas an ardent Spiritualist, and
the Barou's mind Was in . proper con-
ditiou to absorb his ideas. From a
spidtuaiist the Colonel became . Thso-
sophist, and the Baron followed his
teacher. He became 10 infatuated with
Col. Olcott and the ancient religion Of
the Egyptians. that be insisted that the
funeral over his body should BE- con-
Quoted altar the old Egyptian style. and
that after the funeral. his body should
be crsmaisd. and the ashss given to Col.
Oicott.
The ashes may have proved . great
gift to Colonel Olcett. but tho Baron
made him q present which will be more
profitable to him in this world. BY his
vill no ieft all Of his property in Europe
and this country to the great chief OF the
Thsosophists. The baron was perfectly
san when he made this will. and Col
onsl olcott will undoubtedly come into
posssssio. Of the property. And thus
the whirligig Of time brings about its
changes. A newspaper reporter. work
ing on . small salary. becomes the pos
SCISSOR Of millions. Colonel Olcott Is
to be congratulated o upon ths for
tune left him by the Baron. than upon
the acquisition Of the ashes Of his dead
friend.

REVISE TUE CONSTITUTIONS.

Senator John ]. Ingalls, Of Kansas yes
terday introduced q resolution in the
Senate. providing for = Constitutional
Convention in Columbus. Ohio. The
resolution was laid on the table, but
will be called up again at some future
time. It contsmplatss the entire re-
vision Of the Federal Constitution. tho
revision to be made by men OF wisdom
end judgment. elected by the people.
aud afterwards 10 be submitted to tbs
people for ratification. II Is = good
resolution /; one which should pass both
Hous.s ; one which probably will pass
both Houses. When our National Con-
stitution was framed the necessities OF
tho present time could not be known.
The document prepared and ratified in
1887 provided all the safeguards for the
rights Of citizens which were necessary
at that time. But We have progressed
since then in more senses than one.
Our population is greater. and the in
crease il drawn from an smigra-
ten which includes the most Ignorant
classes Of the European cities. These
nov come among rs, not because they
love our nstitutions-indesd tho ma
jority Of them know very little Of our
iustitutions-but because they hate the
land OF their birth. Tho only qualihca-
ton necessary to make them voters. Is a
few years. residence in the country.
They meet the qualification. take out
their naturalization papers. and arc al
once placed on a par with the most in
telligent citizen in the land.
Emigration to this country 10 q good
thing for the nation. We want all the
emigranta that We can get. Our fields
are broad and waiting for occupation.
And every emigrant who arrives helps to
swell the throng which i. one day to
make Of this Republic the most power
full nation in the world. But while We
want the omigrants. We also want them
when they arrive here to know oms
thing Of our system Of Government, or
begin to learn something Of ii. We want
them when they become citizens. aud
assume the high right OF suffrage. to be
able to vote intslligsatly. And in order
to do this they should at least be able to
read aud write. IL Senator Ingalls, res
olutiou Is passed the first duty Of the
Convention in revising the Constitution
will bo to insert q provision to the effect
| that no man who c,nnot read and write
shall DO qualified AZ a voter. OF course
some time should DO fixed for this pro-
vision to 20 into effect. II would be un-
Just to ignorant citizens who now enjoy
the right Of suffrage 10 take from them
that right. without giving them a chance
to qualify. A provision might Be made
that Alter 1879 no man VINO ean"'' 'eA'

OF exercising the right OF suffrage.
When the educational qu%aiihca'ioh u

GENERAL NOTES.

Tsrs is the way the New York World
talks: There 10 no probability Of any
armed commotion in the nation. growing
out OF the Presidential vote. The two
Houses will quietly and honestly try to
agree on a mode Of procedure. IL they
do agree. il will be executed. II they
do not agree. each House will act ON its
own responsibility and appreciation Of
its Constitutional rights. No sensible
and courageous man believes that a sen.
sible and courageous House or Senate
will ssrss itself to count. or that any
one else shall count a vote saturated
with fraud. aud which does moi represent
the will Of the voters. Each House will
stand ON its Interpretation Of the Con.
stitution. and consequences must take
care Of themselves under the law.

ST. LOUIS, October ia Jefferson
CITY special to the Epentng Dispatch says:
James Myers, son of Sheriff Myers, Of
this county, shot and killed George
Busekus, feeble old German living in
the Southern part OF the city, about 10
o'clock this morning. The story runs
that young Myers has been too intimate
with n daughter of Busekus, and that he
had been forbidden the house. This
morning Myers called on Busekus, and
an alteration ensued, shortly after which
Myers shot the old man in his own yard,
putting fourteen buckshot into his body.
Myers was arrested.
1t appears that when Myers first went
to Busekus' house this morning, he drew
a pistol on the old man, whereupon the
latter seized his rifle and drove him from
the premises Myers then went
down town, borrowed shot gun,
returned 10 Busekus' home, not
withstanding the reInonstrances and
entreaties of his mother, and as
the old man was entering his house
to get his rifle, Myers fred, putting IA
buckshot, into his back. Myers was ar.
rested, and before the inquest was held
he was released on $500 bail. The coro-
ners jury returned verdict Of felonious
killing by Myers. The young man WAS
subsequently, re.arrested and placed in
custody OF the jsiler, who Immediately
permitted him to appear on the streets,
accompanied by a friend. The excite
ment among the Germans is intense. and
the indignation OF the people generally,
at the conduct of the authorities, is very
great.

The Republicans have been driven to

beaten, as the case stands to-day. They
know that ii the election WAS to take
place on Tuesday next HAYES would be
overwhelmingly defeated.
They have been beaten on their own
issues. They went into Ohio and In

rying barrels of money. Their vermillion
rag has been torn to tatters by an indig-
nant people determined to have peace;
and their money has besn worse than

excite war between the races at

arouse the North to a crusade against

DOMESTIC NEWS.
Vanderbilt Not Dead.

NEW YORK, October l6.-The Eren-
r,lg Post notifies the agent of the West
ern Associated Press that Vanderbilt is
not dead. The dispatch to the New York
Associated Press, announcing his death,
and purporting to be signed by Rev. DR..
Deems, was the work OF some trickster,
it seems. The following Is copy of the
bogus dispatch, as received:
Commodore Vanderbilt died this
morning at twenty minutes after ten.
Reporters are especially requested not to
call at the house. Particulars will be
given to the press
The bogus dispatch came from the
New York Hotel, and was signed Rev.
Charles 4. Deems.
The following dispatch from Commo-
dore Vanderbilt, at noon,S may be sc-
cepted as an authoritative denial OF the
truth of his death:
IL am alive and doing well, better
than l have been in many months"
LSigDed] G. VANDERBILT.
The EDening Post says: ave hear
that the Stock Exchange is about to
take steps to ascertain the author OF
the report of the death of Commodore
Vanderbilt and the rumors of last Fri
day that the trunk lines had again re-
duced their rates. The newspapers and
and news agencies, as we'll as their Gus
toners were deceived by these statements
and it is time that the Stock Exchange,
which secured the enactment OF the severe
statute which relates TO such offences,
should act in the matter.
The Effect OF tue Forgery.
NEW YORK, October l6.-The fslsere-
port of the death OF Mr.. Vanderbilt
caused losses to many members Of the
Stock Exchange and their customers, the
report being telegraphed throughout the
country and even to Europe. In conse-
quence of this, complaints have been
made to the President of the Stock Ex-
change by the sufferers, and the affair is
now under investigation and will be
brought up at The meeting Of the gov
ernors on Wednesday next 1t Ia stated
that some clue has already been obtained
as to the perpetrator OF the forgery.
