STAR ROUTE FRAUDS UNP ROFIT.

There is some consolation In thinking that II

OF Boss Tweed's plumber was credibly estimated
at seven millions, but a few years OF the ex-

TO which he was subjected reduced II SO much

A Novel Story.

Many Of the younger women were really cap
tivating in form, having plump and rounded
bust and figure, regular features sparkling
black eyes, small hands and feet that many a
white-skinned lady would envy, and exhibited
an elasticity in gait and motion resulting from
perfect health and freedom from laces and cor
sets, writes correspondent of the Pittsburg
Commercial! from the Cheyenne agency at Fort
Benton. c. F. E., popular banker at Aber-
DEF n Dakota. succeeded in getting q very in
tei es ing filtration under way with one of these
ideal maidens and was deeply in the midst of his
romance when it was rudely and unpoeticaly
broken off by the cry that the slaughter of the
beeves had commenced, which caused greater

title that he had been able to create in the ten
der chords of her sentiment. and she quickly

dreamed, one Of those fairy creatures Of crino-
line that eat not. neither do they spin, bnt live
and have their being from the sweet aroma Of
cultivated flowers in a. world Of sentiment and

mistake made by milliOnaires who have erected

questioned. Upon the Boulevard, Riverside
Drive, Eighth avenue, and the heights west of
Morningslde Park remain sites where fine
houses may be erected amid shade trees and
winding drives, but that Is about the only region
left below Harlem river. A continuance of cur
rent prosperity must bring with it a new genera
ton OF rich men, and they naturally would
give New York suburban scenes of luxurious
architecture and tasteful landscape if thew

A HURRICANE AT SEA.
Experiences Of the Steamer veuice-The
Chief Officer Washed Overheard and
Lost.

The steamer Venice, which arrived In New York
Saturday from Yokohama, brings tale of wild
seas and terrific winds, during which her decks
were converted into a scene of havoc and her
chief officer was washed overheard and lost
After leaving Yokohama on June 90 the steamer
touched at Shanghai, Annoy. Hong Kong, Singa-
pore, Alden, Suez, Port Said and Gibraltar. I'm
til September Is the vessel experienced light
airs and fine, sunshiny days, but on that date
the wind freshened, and thick, rainy weather
set In. This developed into q hurricane, which
gradually increased in force until the afternoon
OF the 2Sth, when the sky was as black as ink
ana the waves were rolling mountains high.
ut was about latitude 80 deg. As min and
longitude 10 deg. 20 min, at half-past five
O'CLOCK, said Capt. Biard, yesterday, ''and the
sea became SO wild that / did not deem It pru-
dent to run any longer before the wind. We
preparations were made to lay to. In half an
hour the ships speed was reduced and she lay

had hardly got down the companiOnway when
an awful sea struck the ship on the port side
forward, washing the decks from stem to stern
and hlllng the waist OF the vessel for minute or
so level with the top Of the deck house. Every
man who was on deck had to hold on for dear
lie, and one OF the sailors was whirled the whole
length OF the deck before he could get q
grip on rail- When the water cleared away
the chief officer was missing. Thinking
he might have crept forward, where four
men We're dashed to the wheel, we made search
for him. but all in vain One of the crew saw

The woodwork on the deck was torn away in
number Of places, and even strips ofirOn bolted

THE NEW WAY OF HEATING.
Steam In the StreetS-NO FurnaceS-N
stoves, Etc.

From the New York Herald.
Precisely where the Introduction Of steam
served through mains may lead US is as yet only
an Imagination, but it may be supposed that in
respect to fires in our houses and to the ordi-
nary evolution Of power 1t will make q revolu-
ton as complete as that made by gas in the ban
ishment Of the candle and the lamp from city
houses, or even as the more thorough revo-
luton by which CrotOn water made cisterns
and pumps unknown facts for many wears.
1t may come about that the stove and
the furnace will not be even social sur
vivals, and that the coil In the corner of
the room will be all that the next generation
will know in the way of heating apparatus. But
the placing Of another set of pipes under the
streets will perhaps prove great trouble and
will enforce the necessity for making some pro-
vision for them which will dispense with the
necessity of an excavation every time repairs are
required. With gas pipes, water pipes, steam
pipes and pneumatic tubes all under the streets,
and the telegraph, telephone and electric light
ing wires, all to be put there one of these days,
the continuance of a regularly constructed pipe
way with a movable cover will be forced upon
us. This might be near to the curbstone, under
one ofthe sidewalks, and need not make any OBJ
structiOn upon the surface.

DOrsey's Vote of Confidence.

Pr6sS.
stephen W. Dorsey has been elected chairman
OF the republican state central committee of
Arkansas. This is a vote of confidence which
recalls the one given to Colonel Yell. of Yell
Vile, Arkansas, many years ago. Colonel Yell
as member of the legislature had shared in
several very fat stealings. and when he came I'M
for denomination there was naturally even in
Arkansas some objection to his record. The
opposition was routed, however, and the Colo
mel triumphanty renOminated by a speech from
his friend Zeb Harking, who concluded by dry-
ing huge bowie-knife into the table before him
and exclaiming: 1--WE admit that Colonel Yell
got his share of the spiles an that he plays draw
an consumes more sodcorn whisky than any
man in the legislature; but he loves the old
flag, and his heart always beats warmly for his
native land"

eyebrows. which give him q peculiar appear
ance. He Is slightly stoop-shouldered, and
wore suit OF plain black He is anything
ing he has an odd way OF knitting his brow,
which Is by no means pleasing, though his ad.
dress Is very entertaining. His voice IA not n
pleasant one, but after listening to him for a
lew moments 1t loses Its popularity, which
might be called harshness, and his hearers be-
come absorbed In the solid common sense that
frequently flows from bis lips. Sincerity "a
stamped upon his face and everything he saws
seems to come from his heart Unlike the
boy preacher" Harrison. his discourse is con-
nected, though he sometimes wanders from his
text, but always to speak out some idea sug-
geSted by his explanation Of the words OF the
Scripture. He illustrates his sayings by anec-
dotes that are often humorous and sometimes
the audience breaks out in hearty laughter at
the somewhat novel SMILES. He constantly
PAGES up and down the stage. and emphasizes
his remarks by clapping his hands and stamp
Ing his foot whenever the occasion seems to re-
Quire it.
After explaining why he had entered upon his
present mission, he passed to the subject he had
announced on Friday evening. He cited the
Bible as his authority for amounting but the ex-
act passage that authorized him to do as Christ
is said to have done he failed to read, but. ON
the contrary, his right to do so seemed to be
his own peculiar idea. His address was not
convincing to the reporter for one, and seemed
to be anything but to the point. After he haj

the Affirmative and placing a drop on his fn-
ger, he touched them alternately on the FORE
head, saying: "In Jesus precious name 1 anoint

name: Go thy way In faith" The meeting
closed with the benediction. after few words
of eXhOrtation
