TIE EEEECT.

There were the most eXtTayagant rumors
afloat last night in reference to tho trials and
those connected with them. One was to the
effect that ex-senator Dorsey had left the city
on the o'clock train, after finding out what
Rerdell was to say. As the ex-senator was
seen by u REPUBLICAN reporter Mt IL o'clock
last night, and had evidently no idea of skip
ping, there was certainly no truth in that.
Another was that Gen. Brady would go on
the stand tomorrow. AS he could not go on
until the prosecution has closed, and as no
one knows how long Rordell will occupy the
witness stand, Of course that rumor was ex-
ploded.
Other rumors equally as absurd noated
freely, and almost any kind of news in re-
gard TO the trials tho defendants, or tho at
torneys could be obtained. Sitting down
everything that was said it seems that tho
defense have expected this confession for
some time, and were therefore not sur
prised, 1t was stated that tho action of
Rcrdell appeared to greatly crafty Judge
Wylie, who listened 10 tho latest onfession
of ex-senator Dorsey's former clcrk with
evident satisfaction.

dell's disclosures during yesterdays proceed

A GREAT GAME.

Club in a WeII-PIayed Game.

Three thousand people-the largest crowd ever
attracted to the grounds--witnessed the game
between the Union Pacific and Indianapolis
clubs yesterday, and they were well repaid by
the exhibition given. The home club played
without error until the ninth inning, when Peltz
made the only mark in the error column by a
low throw to second. which, however, resulted
in nothing, The features of the game were Cal
lahans magnificent stop at third, Keenan's
catching and O'Learys fielding. The boys batted

A LOyelOrn Indian Maiden's Suicide,

committed suicide. The Chief desired
her to marry certain member of the
tribe, who was advanced i'll years, but
tho maiden's fancy had already been en-
gagged by n young brave, whom she
promised to wed should she wed Mt ALL
The objection shown to the Chiefs

that he insisted on the marriage with the
older one, and threatened all manner of

Days OF the Clipper Ship.

The fnst.sailm8 clipper, Young Amor
lea, which for thirty years has led the
average records of the Pacific coast sail.
ing vessels, is now at Portland, Oregon,
and the local tars recall the exciting
times when the 90 days sail from San
Francisco to New York was n matter OF
speculation and gambling. About ten
years ago the Young America reached
San Francisco, being 80 days from Liver
pool and the fastest time on record. and
a few days later the British ship Esc0.
cesa arrived with the next best record.
This led to newspaper controversy in
which the relative merits Of the ships was
freely canvassed; and, finally Theodore
Fl. Allen published proposition to tho
effect that, if both ships could leave San
Francisco within twcnty-four hours OF
each other, he would bet Ave thousand
dollars on the Young America, which
offer was taken. Afuror of betting arose
which was never equalcd in the history
of decp-sca navigation. The Davy
Crockett was nearly ready for sea at the
same time, and pools were sold on the
thee vessels, the Young America bong
| tie favorite. On the 18th of February
| the EscoceSa and Young America were
towcd out of San Francisco WITHIN hall
mile of each other. The wlnd, which
was very light, was from the west. The
British ship Patrician, which went out
lust ahead of them, was caught i'll calm
and drifted in upon the Potato Patch
reef, outside Point Bonita, where sho
went to pieces. Next morning bark
arrived from Batavia and reported hav-
ing met both ships. She met the Young
America forty five miles off the Farra-
lones, and the Escocesa three hours and
half behind. This weather lasted some
days, and the Yankee ship never lost her
advantage, but increased it to such an
extent that she beat the Escoccsa five
yads and the Davy Crockett eleven, al.
though her time on this voyage was one
hundred and eight days.

THE DREAM.

In the dream dreamt tonight
Love came armed with magic might,
Fret and fever, doubt and foar,
Foes that haunt his kingdom here,
Misconception, vain regretting,
Bootless longing, cold forgetting,
The dark shades Of change and death,
Ever lowering on his path
Vanished, from sound or sight,
In the dream dreamt tonight.
Times strong hand fell helpless down:
Fate stood daZed without her frown
Sly suspicion, cold surprise,
Faded meath the happy eyes;
And the voice love WAS speaking,
And tho smile love WAS making
Bunshine in the golden weather,
When we two stood close together;
For you reigned in royal right,
In the dream dreamt tonight.
And woke, and woke to see
A cold world, bare and blank to me,
A world whose stare and sneer scarce hidden,
Told mo that as fruit forbidden,
Love and trust must ever pine
In 30 sad clasp as mine:
All too faint and fragile grown
For gifts that youth holds all its own;
All, best to wake, forgetting quite
The sweet dream dreamt tonight.

philosopher through life: "a father was

must never hesitate to grant favors and
he generally obliging wherever he could.
The boy listened, then said: Il would
like to do everything you tell me, father;
but there's fellow at school just like
what you've described. Everybody says
he's on obliging fellow, but nobody-not
even the toacher-trcats him as if he was
any account. Now, ] don't want people
