Disgraeeful scenes in New YOrl

Disgraeeful scenes in New York.
The aGreat International Congress Of
Beauty and Culture" at Gilmore's Gar
den, New York, was opened on Monday
and proved 10 DO the fraud that was ex.
pected by decent people. The beauty and
talent were conspicuous only by their
absence. and instead Of . large audience
paying homage to fair women, the dis.
graceful spectacle was presented OF q
crowd Of shameless men and impudent
boys pressing around the boxes occupied
by the beautiful and talented, and saIu-
ting them with coarse jest and abusive
ridicule. The poor girls who were the
objects OF derision controlled their feel
ings and affected Inconsistencies Of the
insults which they were poWerless 10 re.
sent. Several tried TO hide their faces
behind posts or newspapers, and when
poked with canes their faces Redeemed.
But they could do nothing. The crowd
went on, aTell Us your name, Birdie; we

sand pairs Of lips. Some Of the women
took to flight and sought refuge in the
dressing rooms, and on their way thither
they were accorded their share Of the
insults OF the crowd.
The Herald account says: "Near the
entrance sat dozen beauties behind a
table covered with sheets Of music. No
two were alike. One was blonde, with
pink gimlet eyes and piercing nose;
another q brunette, with raven hair and
we'll defined moustache; third wore o
small sample Of her own hair and q large
one Of somebody else's; q fourth had on
green goggles united to her waist by 3
gilt chain, and was evidently playing for
the prize Of most lady.likej fifth had
splendid mouth for pumpkin pie; sixth

Too Much Married.

PHILADELPHIA Times.
There are more than the usual number
OF humorous features about the case Of
the man Charles Fl. Hull, the wax. flower
teacher, who seems to have married pev.
eral young women too many, and is now
languishing In the Delaware county Jail
because the law does not countensnce
such nonsense. It transpires that be was
put into the hands OF the officials by his
most atiectionats wife, who Is known as
the Chester wife to distinguish her from
the others, who are distributed around in
various parts Of the East. This lady,
whose name IL Bardsley, failing 10 every
loving and epistolary effort TO win her
husband entirely from the society Of his
other wives, had him landed In jail,
where she felt confident she would have
him At such . disadvantage that be
would he delighted TO come to her terms.
And Il turned out Just as she expected,
only little more so, as the President
says about the Returning Board cases, She
promised TO withdraw the charges Of big.
amy against the hayward Hull II be

ness upon her alone, and Hull promised,
as the only thing he could DO under the
circumstances. Miss Bardsley was hor.
riGed, however, when she went before the
Mayor Of Chester, to hear that stony
hearted man say that sueh grave charges
as had been made against Hull could mol
be disposed OF by the easy and simple
process OF withdrawal. To give the mat
Ter still more cloudy aspect, Mies ort-
lip, the Norristown wife, appeared upon
the scene and declared war. None Of The
other wiies attended the hearing, but two
wives are enough to give man as much
trouble as one naturally seeks In thli
world, and Hull was taken to Jail, where
he wept. Miss Bard.ley, whose shrewd
device to reunite his loving heart with
hers had proved Iuch wreiched failure

Secretary Sherman has talked with
an Inter-Ocean correspondent about the
resumption business. The Secretary
says that every day convinces him more
thoroughly of his ability to maintain
specie payments. and that his means on
the LIST of January will be abundant for
this purpose. He is in receipt of pri.
vate information from all quarters,
which report better commercial feel
ing throughout tho country, and be
thought every symptom indicated
that trade would be on a tirmer basis
in January than for several years.
The Secretary says he apprehends still
further depreciation in the market value
Of silver, on account Of the extraordi-
nary products of newly discovered
mines in Colorado and Utah.

OF COURSE.

Abilene and Salina are working Tor
another railroad. We doubt about It's
paying TO vote the bonds required.
Surprising Saline county buys another
railroad, and then the two railroads
spool their earnings" how would they
like that Ellsworth Reporter.
1t was so natural for the Reporter to
originate the above and for the juno
ton City Union to copy and endorse
it. The proposed extension of the NJ.
KIT. road to Salina would certainly
,njurs the railroad prospects of Els
worth. No line with an eastern outlet
will ever DO built to Ellsworth, pro-
vided the NJ. K. l. T. is built to Salina
and is not EXTENDED to Ellsworth (Which
is not at all probable). Tho Ellsworth
people thus see themselves cut ont OF
q road, and it is so natural for them,
through their organic interpose "theo
ries" like the above in support of Their
protest against Salina indulging in
new road. The Reporter asks: "sup
pose Saline county buys another rail
road, and then the two railroads "poo
their earnings ?" That is a very harm
less question, to be sure. 1t is harm
less argument, too. Saline county il
not alarmed over 1t. She can easily
afford to take her chances on anything
of that kind. If there is o prospect
of the "pool'' which is so sharply
harped about, why should the Kansas
Pacific be so exercised over the mat
ter, and labor so zealously against the
proposed road? The X. P. would Ger
tainly have very little concern about
the matter, If the extension did not in
terfere with her interests. Let the
roads spool" say we,if Salins can by the
aid Of them experience such freight
rates as Junction City enjoys now. Nc
wonder the people of Junction City,
through tn cir organ, the Union, object
to this extension of the NJ. X. & I. to
Salina, when they know full well, and
even say, that in that event the exten.
sion will be regarded as the main line,
while the line to Junction City will be
regarded simply as a sort of switch
affair. Yes, no wonder that Junction
City don't want Salina to have that NJ.
X. &. T. extension, when she will rank
as a way station somewhere on the
prairie, and get mona of tho benefits to
accrue from two great competing lines.
The NJ. K. & I. extension would Grip
pie Junction City seriously, and we
wonder not that she snaps at US, and
growls AMI shows her teeth, when the
matter is spoken of.
