Why the Author Was Not Called Out.
From the New York Cor st. Louis Republican
An amusing incident occurred recently at the
first night of the production Of new play
which was written by a young journalist with
expectation that it would rival "SamI of Po-
sen." 1t was written to depict the fidelity of
friendship of the Jews, and it was confidently
believed that it would prove a great hit. but it
fell fiat upon the public and was pronounced
with unanimity to be dull and tasteless. The
author was behind the scenes in full dress sn,t
expecting to be called out. He had friends
stationed about the theater prepared to call for
the author as soon as q loud-luDged man sta
toned In the gallery, where the most uncOmpr0-
missing critics meet, should give the signal
Leonard Groves who was In the audience, saw
that the piece was about as bad as anything
ever put on the boards, and that the establish
ment would be made ridiculous by call for the
author under the circumstances Being an
prised OF the organized movement to call for
the author he stepped up to policeman, and
tickling his palm with tw0-dOllar bill, told
him that there were some enemies Of the author
10 the gallery intent upon disturbance, and chat
he wanted the first man who opened his mouth
arrested, SO that the attempt would be nipped
IN the bud. The policeman. feeling In mood
to drum skull, went to the gallery, and as the
curtain fell upon the second act, spied big
fellow clapplng big pair Of hands together
Drawing close to him, the policeman waited for
Developments. Tho claqueur threw back his
policeman clapped his hand over the open
mouth. and to the great surprise OF the authors
faithful friend, hustled him without ceremony
from tho gallery. The author has ever since
been trying to Ind the man who interfered With

PLIcITY.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The citizens

card monte and bunko men. Each de-
tatied circumstances of many robber-
les, including the government printing
Office money; gave names of thieves
and detectives who ''stand in" as well
as the percentage Of proceeds. The
robbers paid detectives 20 per cent.
Detective Levas is even said to have
planned some of the jobs and selected
the men to execute it. Murphy and
OLeary gave circumstantial account
OF the Christiancy diamond robbery,
and alleged the diamonds Of the ex-
minister were valued from $500 TO
$50, 900, and were disposed of at great
sacrifice in New York, and heavy
percentage given to two detectives who
are named. The wife of one Of these
men, OLeary, said: "Now wears
dresses made from silk taken in
the Burdett robbery, and given to the
detective as his part of the plunder. II
is alleged that the entire detective
force of the district received dividends
levied weekly upon bunko and
monte men. The detectives involved.
save one, were dismissed for betraying
the governments Interests in the star
route cases. Magreeder a member OF
the committee, thought he recognized
OLeary, who is well educated, and
asked him If he had ever been at col
lege. O'Leary answered cat Gonzuga
college," Then said Magreeder,

greatly mortified at this identification.

New YORK, Dec. 12.-The Herald's
special from Montreal says: Mr.. JOS.
A. Hawley, bachelor of Montreal,
who made his fortune and retired
twenty years ago, 20 travel on the con-
tinent, returned recently to his old
friends in Montreal. He became i'll
with softening of the brain, and devel-
oped symptoms of insanity. Mr.. DON
ire, the queens counsel, is one of Haw-
ley's friends, and remained with him
last night. Preparations were made to
send him TO the Tongue Points insane
asylum, when Mr.. Dontre left at 8
o'clock this morning to attend busi-
ness in court. Soon after Mr.. Dontre
was seized with conviction that some
thing terrible was about to happen to
his friend Hawley. He Immediately
left the court and hastened to Noire
Dame hospital. When be came with
in few feet of the hospital door he
saw falling from the upper window
what seemed to be bundle of clothes.
He found it was Hawley, who, at the
very moment Mr.. Dontre arrived with
in sight of the hospital, had leaped
from the second-story window head
foremost, striking the stone steps. He
was carried into the hospital, but nev-
er spoke afterward, and died at 6 p.

Kingston is the capital and principal
commercial city and seaport of Jamai-
ga, county of Surrey, ON its south
coast, on the north side of fine har.
Dor, 10 miles by rail west of Spanish
Town. 1t stands on 3 gentle slope, and
Is regularly laid out, its houses being
mostly of two stories and furnished with
yerandas. The principal buildings are
the churches, chspels, synsgogues, a
hospital and other charitable institu-
tions, a free school, the work house,
penitentiary, collegiate and univer-
sity school, a Baptist college and the
atre; also an athen9um, a society
of arts, and banks. 1t has five daily
and several other newspapers. 1t is
an Anglican bishops see. The harbor
is very fine. available for the largest
ships. The inclined plane on which
the city stands is bounded ON the north
by the loftiest ridge of the Blue Noun
tain chain. The population of the city
is $4,000, only small proportion Of
which are whites. Since the emanci.
patton of slaves in 1888, the prosperity
of the city has greatly decreased.

ounces per ton, and of unknown extent.
None of the other mines named have
had anything done on them except for
the purpose of yearly representation
but on those living contiguous to the
Republic the surface indications are
precisely the same as the case of that
mine, and it is fair to assume that
when opened they will show just as
much ore. This great transfer is
fraught with the most momentous re-
suits to the people of Montana and
this county. 1t means smelters and a
busy town where only too long has
been a wilderness, given over to In
dians, who did not even hunt upon it.
Known for long time to contain great
mineral wealth, it would seem at last
as though its bonds were united, and
this camp is to step forward and take
its proper place as one of the great
bullion producers of the country. Mr..
Eaton is working the Republic night
and day, and smelters are to be put in
early in the spring.

If Germany and France shall con
tinuo TO discriminate against American
pork, it will be well for congress to
adopt some stringent retaliatory meas
ures. Our hogs are rs healthy as
theirs, and the claim that they are not
is untrue, ard cannot be maintained.
The amount of pork that is annually
consumed in this country is simply
enormous, and our people as healthy
as these of other countries. If those
two nations should pass prohibitory
laws, like the one now pending in the
German Bundesrath. let congress i'm
pose a duty upon German and French
wines that will be high enough to
amount to practical prohibition o
the importation of those articles. The
most of them are bogus anyhow, and
are far more injurious to the health oi
the consumer than the pork sent out
rom this country.
