The morning session opened yesterday
with regular avalanche of petitions in favor
of the passage of the bill prepared by the
Temperance Union for the suppression of
taxation, pauperism and crime resulting from
the use of intoxicating liquors. From almost
every section of the State-North, South,
East and West, poured in the petitions show
ing that the Union had been industriously
circulating its petitions with the view of in
1uencing the legislature in behalf of the bill
presented for its consideration. What effect
these expressions of goodwill towards the
proposed measure will have upon the obdu-
rate hearts of Minnesota's Solons, the future
alone can disclose, but Judging from the
fate of its predecessors upon similar meas
ures, it is not unreasonable to predict that it
will merely afford the opportunity for little
bumcombe talk, and be consigned to the
dark oblivion of the grave.

PAT GILMORE'S
Band Busted-Gernan and English
Musicians no Novelty TO the Par
isians-PIenty of Notes but
no Money.

New York World: The return from Paris
of the fragments of GilmOre's band is looked
for daily by the musicians here, the bands
foreign trip having turned out a complete
failure. From letters received by friends and
relatives of the sixty odd members of the
band, it seems the concerts IN England were
encouraging, but after these came nothing
but loss. Mr.. Grove, the advance agent, left
with three thousand francs to prepare for an
opening at Paris, but failed to do his work,
and subsequently disappeared. The recep-
ton IN Paris was very tame. The band, in
their peculiar uniforms, were stared at by
the Parisians as they passed through
the streets, but to the concerts the French
men carefully refrained from going. A pic
mic gotten up by the American consul-gener-
al to introduce the band to the public, and
held in the Bots de Boulogne, failed to ere
ate any enthusiasm, and the appearance of
a lady vocalist at one of the concerts was
commented on unfavorably. When Gilmore
was striving for popular recognition the Gel
ebrated master, Franco Tacclo, was playing
with band of one hundred and twenty
pieces from La Scala, At Milan. Carl Pediotti
had similar orchestra from Turin, and the
military bands were giving free concerts In
the parks. The TACT that most of the men,
bers OF the American band were Germans,
and the few exceptions Englishmen, 1t IS
thought may have had something to do with
It's untaVorable reception. No attempt was
made to push the series of concerts to Germa-
ny, and from. Paris the band scattered. Many
were compelled ID depend upon the gid Of
the American consul to secure return pas
sage. Most Of them were paid no salary af
ter leaving New York. There are charges of
bad management and unfair treatment by
the men, who have written home for passage
money. A part OF the band are now In Eng
land, while another section remains in Paris.
Some will not return to the United States
far some time, but the others, with their fam
lies here are making every endeavor to get
home quickly.

HOW THE CATCHER WAS CAUGHT.

Full tall was he, with sinewy muscles,
And shoulders broad and full and square,
With limbs designed for mighty tussles.
And the regular prlZe-rlng crop of hair;
And he played. with skill exceedingly fine
The cdtcherS place In a western nine.
He was rich in all Of the manly graces-
very Apollo from head to heel;
And though he was gallant at the stealing of bases,
He never was base enough, surely to steal.
A FOUL indeed his pulses stirred,
But he never was foul in deed or word.
As fair was she as the sun uprising,
blooming maiden, with luscious lips,
Whose dainty completeness was really surprising,
Down to her rosy finger tips;
And she often sat on the stand in the shade,
And saw the games which that catcher played.
And whenever he seized on a hot one nicely,
Or caught foul with agility,
She cldpped her hands, for that was precisely
For much did this blooming maiden pine
For the catcher who caught in that western nine.
Wherefore it vga7 meet, when the games were over,
The catcher, so brave and manly and tall,
Should frequently play the part of lover
In a game considerably older than ball;
And If an occasional error he made
Twas simply because with a miss ne played.
For. spite of her love, this maid was addicted
To ways most coquettish and nauE hty and sly.
And the man OF the diamond field was restricted
To taking loves favors, as 'twere, on the sly;
And though she protested at kissing. doubt
If the maid of the catcher was ever put out
Atthat dangerous hour, while the sun yet fingers
Above the horizon, and Nature is dumb
He would hold her small hand between his damned
fingers
And stroke her soft hair with his stiff-iointeC
thumb;
And often their walks were extended so late
Twas eleven O'Clock when she crossed the home
plate.
At last he mustered up courage and told her
How fondy he lOnged 10 make her his wife,
And she rested her head on his manly shoulder
While he eagerly asked would she give him d
Iife?''
And lie limited with emphasis, leaving no doubt,

Twas the umpire Love that gave the decision;
The maiden permitted her lips to be kissed,

So the game to right happy ending was brought
And thus, as it happened, the catcher was caught

MASKED M4RAUDERS
In Pennsy lvanIa PerpeTrate Outrages
at WilI-TwO Cases that Cali for
Lynch Law.

Special to the GlObe-Democrat.l
HARRISBURG, PA, July 30.-Last week
six masked men knocked att the door OF Jacob
Eckert, aged seventy-slX years, near Mechan-
icsburg, Cumberland county, Maryland.
Eckert ran for his gun, but before he had
gone far he was seized by one of the party,
and had pistol pointed at his head. The
man was thrown on the bed by the out
laws and securely bound with a leather strap.
Mrs. Hannah Pagan, an aged lady, was next
bound, after which the gang compelled Mrs.
Eckbert to accompany them through the
house and show them the whereabouts OF all
the money. They secured two hundred and
thirty-ive dollars, when they threw her on
the floor and subjected her to similar treat
ment received by the other inmates, and
made a thorough search of the house. Last
night another robbery was committed in
Cumberland county, similar to the above.
Near Boiling Springs resides John Beltz-
hoover, aged ninety-three years, and his wife,
almost the same age, and Nancy Rlchwlne,
also we'll up IN years Mr.. Beltzhoover owns
several farms, and is reported to be wealthy.
At about ten O'Clock last night a noise was
heard at one of the doors, and Mr.. BeltZ-
hoover, getting out of bed to ascertain the
cause, was knocked down with a club. the
burglars having knocked IL the door. They
then bound his arms and legs, and followed
up the work by placing Miss Richwine in a
similar way. Mrs. Beltzhoover was ordered
to procure two candles for the robbers to
light them through the house, she being
compelled at the point of the pistol to reveal
the location of the money in the house. Only
about one hundred dollars were secured, the
old gentleman never having much about the
premises. Miss Richwlne had, meanwhile,
extricated herself from her bonds and gone
In search ola relative, but before she arrived
at the house the robbers had left with their
plumber. 1t Is feared Mr.. Beethoven will
die from the injuries received at the hands of
the outlaws, who are no doubt portion Of
the gang who committed the outrage near
Mechanicsburg.

Once upon a time the Empress Eugene

She used to invent new and recherche toll
lettes, and the cost OF her wardrobe was enor-
NOUS But at last she began TO study econo-

at home and caused a dressmaker's estab-

something in the August number OF LippiR-

The workroom was directly over her pri-

whose mechanism was sklllfully disseminated
among the ornaments of the cornice and cell

In progress, could be lowered for the en-

the royal hOusehsld was under the charge of
a iuncuOuary, whose business it was to pur-
chase silks velvets and laces at wholesale

The knowledge Of it's existence was soon
spread abroad, a1d did the empress lDhnlte

Mortified and dlsgusted the Parlslans, who,
economical themselves, have ever scorued
that virtue In their soyereigns. Many OF the
partisans of the court denied the existence of
such an establishment, but during the period
that elapsed between the downfall of the en-
pire and the outbreak of the commune, the
curious throngs that visited the Tuleries
might trace amid the holdings of the ceiling
in the empresss boudoir the outline of the
famous trap-door. And now her ex-im-

PARIS IN BRIEF.
what an Intelligent American Has to
say about the French Capital and
the ENpOsitiOn-The American
Compared with the Euro
pean Display.

New York World, 18th: reporter of the
World yesterday had an interview with
well-knoWn citizen of New York, who has
lust returned from Paris, where he has been
visiting the exposition.
How did you like it?'' asked the reporter.
"Well enough, was the reply, but it is
not what you would expect The best dis
play is made by the English, and the finest
objects in the English department are the
presents made TO the prince of Wales In In
dia. The American exhibit, generally speak
ing, is very poor; the first things that strike
your eye on entering the department, and
indeed they are the most prominently
placed, are lot OF false teeth
exhibited by a Philadelphia dentist
and several thousand cases of patent
pills from a New York drug house. Tiffany
az Co. have, however, very fine display OF
metal-work, and | learn that they have sold
three hundred thousand francs worth. What
Is especially noticeable is the lack Of ma
chinery, which you remember was one OF our
strong points at Philadelphia. In fine arts,
painting, furniture and tapestry the European
departments are rich, and far excel anything
that we had at Philadelphia.
"What about the reports of extortionate
charges by the hotel keepers at Paris
They are true The charges are absurdly
high, and are running the business of the
shops; for after man has paid his hotel bill
he has no money left to go shopping. Still
the hotels are not full, and you find no diff
Guilty IN getting accommodations even at the
best houses.
How do the exposition buildings compare
with oursP"
mot well; taey are perfectly hideous, ex-
cept the Trocadero, which you know Is TO be
permanent. The most hideous of all is the
American building. The show itself is grand,
of course, but it is too hot TO enjoy it..
"Did the French take as much interest in
1t as the Americans took Ia the Centennial?"
II think not; they got tired of it a month
after it was openeC-lust ike the French,
YOU know. They regard 1t now with a sort
of indulgent smile, as though 1t were Just
good enough to amuse foreigners, Paris So
ciety is more interested Just now IN specu
latinQ on the cause of the sudden death OF
the Queen of Spain. Many insist that she
was poisoned by some one who did not wish
to see "A new dynasty raised up for the Span

those of poisoning, and it is noteworthy that
she was not EN- balmed, rs Spanish personages
of royal blood always are. Another subject
of gossip Ii Crozette, the famous actress. 1t
is generally understood that she Is secretly
married, and it is generally believed that her
husband is NJ. Stern, the son OF the Paris

mother for the second time, and you may be
sure that this has revived the gossip about
her. Croizette has knack of keeping her

MARY ANDERSON,
At sara BernharCs Residence. Does
some Private Acting that ELECTS
the Great french Actresses'
Applause.

st. Louis Republican: At last accounts
Mary Anderson was IN Paris doing the ex
position, visiting tie theaters and art-geller-.
les, and cultivatipg the acquaintance of ar
lists and artistic people. She is so busy and
interested in the French capital and the epit-
ONE OF sthe world at present localized there
that her contemplated trip to Italy and Ger
many has been abandoned for the present
During her short vacation she finds enough
to see and do in Paris Among her new ac-
qualntance IN Paris are tSara Bernhart the
great French emotional actress, and Kate
Field. She took the first opportunity to see
Bernhart in Ernani, at the Theater Fran
caise. She says that Bernhart's method is
very like that of Clara Morris, but that the
French woman has not so
much magnlfylng power as the
American. But Bernhart is undoubtedly
att the head of this dramatic school. The
fame of 1.-THE marvellous American girl had
reached Paris before her, and offers to act
there during the exposition were declined.
By invitation she visited Bernhart at her
home, and did some private acting for her,
which made the French woman enthusiastic
and anxious that the American girl should ap-
pear Immediately in Paris. But, OF course,
such project was entire Y aside from MISS
Anderson s programme of travel and sight
seeing and recreation, and the suggestion
was respectfully rejected. AT Bernhart' 5
house Miss Anderson was introduced into
Sara Bernhart's famous chamber, draped as
black as night. Opposite the actress bed is
a large mirror, and directly in front of the
mirror stands the skeleton of man who died
for love- The skeleton was found in Italy.
There it forever stares and grins CHASTITY at
Bernhart as she lies in bed. And she loves
the skeleton dearly-so she says. 1t
calls to mind the old Roman Gus
tom of placing such a reminder of
mortality at the banquet table, among the
gay jewellers at life's feast, to keep the hilar-
lty within due bounds. And Bernhart' S
skeleton seems to perform this quiet office of
guard in her chamber. The idea is very
Frenchy and quietly grim. Sara Bernhart. it
is reported, took warm liking to Mary An
derson from their first acquaintance, offered
her her box at the theater, introduced her
behind the scenes, and indoctrinated her in
the technic of French dramatic art and the
French stage. And the young American
actress proved an apt pupil. But, altogether,
she prefers the American theaters and Eng
lish acting to the French. Nevertheless, she
is taking valuable lessons in dramatic treat
ment and effects, which will doubtless appear
in her work when she returns and resumes
her profession at home. She expects to COM
mence her next season at the Fifth avenue
theater, about the first of September.
