THE AsToR PLACE RIOTS.



CURED Thirty-Four Years Ago To-Day.
New York Telegram May 10.
Isn't this one of your anniversary days?"
asked Telegram reporter OF General Abram
Duryee, this morning.
LET me think" responded the General,
looking at the reporter through his glasses.
This is the 10th of May"
Lord bless my heart! So it is, so it is, "
| observed the old soldier, warmly. Il should
say it is one of my anniversary days. Thir-
ty-four years ago, to-day, l commanded at
the Battle of Aston Place, as 1 expect his
tory will call it: The trouble arose because
of what was believed to have been the i'll
treatment received by Edwin Forrest, the
| tragedian, while in England. When w. C..
Macresdy, the English tragedian came to this
country, and his appearance at the Aston
Place Opera-house was announced, an I'M
mense faction declared he should never be
allowed to play. True to their word, on the
| night of his first performance a wild mob
filed the theater and surrounded it, 10000
| strong. l was then in command of the
Seventh regiment, and at o'clock in the af-
ternoon received orders to be ready to quell
the expected riot at the evening performance.
| BY o'clock the regiment had assembled in
the armory l personally superintendent the
distribution of ammunition to the men, and
| would like to settle a question in dispute
| in this connection. There was not man in
| in the regiment in possession of blank cart
ridge on that night, and any story to the
effect that blank cartridge was used is purely
| fictitious. We fired to hurt. Toward 8
o'clock we received orders to disperse the
mob, and by the time we reached Astor
Place it was fully that hour. The regiment
was as yet with empty guns, but when | saw
what we had to deal WITH, the instant order
| was close columns en- masse and load at will.
Had it not been for this l verify believe the
mob would have massaered the whole regi-
ment Their attack upon us was at once so
furious and determined, bat we responded in
like measure. Of the rioters 1874 were killed
outright and over one hundred wounded
Several of our boys received pistol shots and
lab were wounded with stones and other
missiles, Thirty-two stand of arms were

blanks. Here was Nihilist pass bureau.
In another house, where two women were
arrested, there was a printing press with
fresh copies of the Will of the People.
1t took only seven days for the Cars court
20 try and condemn seventeen prisoners to
the gibbet and the Siberian mines. The ac-
cused persons were not allowed to speak.
Only Bogdanovitch, an artillery officer, the
famous cheese dealer in Little Garden
street, managed to make a short speech with
long, forced intervals.
1--WE are a few" he said, "and you are
many but we are right and you are wrong,
and so you will have to yield to u.s. We are
children of the people, and you are oppres-
sors of the people, and so in the end we
shall be supported and you will be over
thrown. Though we die we have bright
hopes; Though you live, you are haunted
by horrible specter. Our government is
republican, and it has a glorious future.
Your government is despotic, ard its future
is only. ignoble death. Long live the Russian
republic!'
In view of the fact that every year all
classes of people become more and more
contaminated with ''the Nihilistic poison"
the government has raised an important
the public at larger "The clergymen," re-
plies the chief procurer of the holy synod.
But the Cars tutor and adviser overlooks
the fact that sons and daughters of clergy
men constitute at least a third of the entire
number of Nihilists. For instance, among
these seventeen prisoners are three daughters
and son of priests, and the son of deacon.
II Russian clergymen cannot save their own
children from the Nihilistic poison, still less
can they influence the children of other
people.
The increase in the number of Nihilists
among the officers of the army and navy in
duced the Gar to issue an order directing
the officers to denounce their own comrades
whom they suspected of being guilty of
Nihilism. This order enraged the officers
for the Russian officer knows no meaner
offense than to turn informer against his
comrade. Ihave heard that an. officer said
hoty "My life is at your (the Czar's) com
mand, but don't touch my honor; it is
mine!"

THE THOMPSON CASE.
An AcquittaI that Carries no Weight
ThOmpson's Plans for the Future.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
Those who persisted in declaring Davis in
nocent of the heinous crime of debauching
the drunken and semi-unconscious wife of
the Congressman do so now with equal, if
not greater, vehemence. The supporters of
Phil. Thompson, who never faltered in their
devotion to his cause, and always proclaimed
his justification, can do so now with no
greater vigor than before he was put upon
trial for his life
The residents of Harrodsburg who took
sides in the lamentable tragedy stand exactly
where they did when the first news of the
occurrence reached them. The Davis faction
have declared all along that the jury was Sc
lected in the interests of the accused, and
point with grim satisfaction to the verdict as
undlsputed proof of the charges The fair
girl-widow of Walter Davis, with fidelity
OF loving and trusting wife, clings to her
belief that her Walter died without the stain
OF adultery on his soul On the other hand
Mr. Thompson and his family are paying no
attention to the criticisms that are being
passed, and treating the insinuations of trick
cry with quiet dignity.
Mr.. Thompson had something to say about
his political future. Il shall probably be a
candidate for Congress again." he remarked,
and L believe my people will support me.
VI course, have made some enemies by the
vindication of my honor in killing Davis, but
my friends will rally all the stronger to help
me-"
80, then, you don't believe your killing
Davis has ruined you politically, Mr. Thomp-
son?''
81 think not. That jury which declared
me not guilty was composed of some of the
best men i'll Mercer county, and no man who
has heard and read the facts can blame me
Tor my action toward the debaucher of my
wife"
viii you tell your daughter of the
tragedy?'
The reporter saw at once that he had
touched Mr.. Thompson in a tender spot for
he answered in a husky voice, and tear
glistened in his eye: Il shall only reveal
that had a difficulty and was acquitted but
cannot and will not tell her of her mothers
shame"
The conversation drifted to national poll
tics and the brilliant young congressman
expressed the opinion that New York man
would head the democratic ticket. Joe Nc
Donald, he thought, was a strong man, but
it was recognized fact that Indiana must be
carried by money, and wealthy New Yorker
could meet the Republicans with their own
weapons =, t.. II s.. e..
Mr.. Thompson looks exceedingly well after
the severe ordeal through which he has
passed He is an affable, socable and intelli-
gent little gentleman, calculated to make
friends wherever he goes.

Platt young man belonging to one of the
most respected families of this place, has
slept almost continuously since last Christ

spoken. Twice a day he rouses from what
seems to be sound slumber, and, in a half
dazed fashion, leaves his chair to enter an
adjoining room, where the family's meals
are served. He eats very little. The country
doctors admit that they do not understand
the case. Plat was bright, active young

A SWORD FROM THE SKY.
A New York Village Excited Over the Fall
of a Giant Weapon.
Kingston Special.

Kingston Special,
Accord is little Ulster county village in
the town of Rochester, located on the Della
ware d Hudson canal which has never
achieved or even sought any special distinc-
ton so far as known, except that it was the
residence of one Daniel Bell, an eccentric
man who claims to have made many valua-
BILE and important mineral discoveries, in
Guiding massive diamonds, in that vicinity.
But during the past week this little place has
been the scene of much excitement and visit
ors have come from far and near. A fiery
meteor was seen to drop into the Rondout
creek at that place recently sending up a
column of steam and boiling water as it fell
that filled those who witnessed it with won
der and CONSERVATION. Next day when it
was thought to have become sufficiently cool
to investigate, a son of this Mr. Bell and an
other lad dragged the creek in the vicinity
and finally brought up giant sword which
was found with its massive blade pointing
upward and its hilt buried beep in the mud.
The strange weapon is six feet long, has two
edges, and weighs seventeen pounds The
blade is covered with hieroglyphics that are
wholly unlike anything ever before seen or
described, and that show prodigious amount
OF work in their engraving. The entire
workmanship of the mysterious weapon is
OF the finest possible description. The hilt
seems to have been designed for some man,
moth hand three times as large as the ordi-
nary human hand, and there is nothing
about the weapon which evinces any inten-
ton on the part of the designer that it was
made for the use of any ordinary mortal

The Ideal Beefsteak.

Any one can cook beefsteak-in his
mind. As matter Of fact, it requires an
artist to do it; and this view is shared BY
correspondent, who writes "A member of
my own family has brought the cooking of
this article Of food to perfection. The first
requirement is not so much tender and
juicy steak, though this is always devoutly
to be desired, but a glowing bed of Goals,
wire gridiron, a stout one with good-sized
wires, double one, so that you can turn
the steak without touching it. The steak
should be pounded only in extreme cases.
when it is too thick and is .stringy.' At
tempt nothing else when cooking the steak.
and have everything ready for the table, the
roasted potatoes and vegetables all being in
their respective tShes in the warming closet
or oven, with dpyss left open little way.
From ten minutes onward is needed to cook
the steak. The time must depend upon the
size. and you can easily tell by the color of
the gravy, which runs from the steak when
gently pressed with a knife, as to its condi
ton. if the master of the house likes it
rare done when there is suspicious
brown gravy with the red ii will be safe to
infer that it is done enough for him. If. as
is generally the case, the next stage is the
favorite one, remove the steak from the
gridiron the instant the gravy is Of light
brown. Remove it to hot platter, pepper
and salt it to yotr taste, put on small Jumps
of butter and thea for two brief moments
cover it with hot plate, the two moments
being sufficient to carry it to the table,
One absolutely essential factor in the prepar-
alton of god beefsteak is that it must be
served at once. If you can impress it upon
your cook that he is not to let the steak
stand and steam while he is doing other
things, you will be likely to receive your re-
ward for so doing."-London Hotel World.
