The Evening critic., 1883-04-16


Despite the criticisms of the press and
the protests of citizens, Marshal McNIichael
has ordered uniforms for his assistant mar
shals. The uniforms will probably be ready
within fortnight. 1t is understood that
Colonel Perry Carson will be designated as
Captain of the Marshals," and will from
day to day drill his men in front of the
City Hall.
An old Philadelphian being asked the
other day if Marshal McMichael did not get
his aesthetic ideas from his chief, Brew
ster, Attorney General" said:
why, no; bless your soul, the Marshal
comes by it honestly. His good old grand.
father was an old North of Ireland gar
dener, and after coming to this country was
engaged for years as head gardener for the
late Isaac Hazelhurst, of Mount Holly, New
jersey. The old man to the day of his
death wore the old-time Continental cos
tune, with brass buttons attached; and
now, you see" the gentleman continued,
"Marshal McMichael's estheticism is hon
estly handed down.
Speaking of Marshal McMichael, there is
a story to the effect that when that gentle
man first proposed to uniform his deputies,
Secretary Chandler heard of it, and up
braided him in a severe manner for his
alleged snobbishness, and asked him If this
Administration had not already enough to
answer for.
The Critic was present when the follow
ing conversation was had between two
well-known gentlemen of this city-one of
them Democrat of the most ultra type,
and who, for the purposes of this story,
will be called Colonel" the other a Re-
publican of the Stalwart wing OF his party,
and will be called "Maior."
Now it SO happens that the Colonel and
the Major are warm personal friends. The
Major has been an ofiiceholder for eighteen
years. The Colonel is very sanguine
about the success of the grand old
party in 1884. He is in favor of
ousting every Republican oficeholder in
the land when that event takes place.
He has, however, promised the Major that
he would see to II that he should bs pro.
vided with place, but until yesterday he
never would tell bin what he proposed to
give him. So they met yesterday, and the
Major got at the Colonel to let him know
what 1t was he proposed to do for him when
the Democrats got all the Offices in the coun
try. The Colonel proceeded 10 inform the
Major after the following manner

How lt L. Managed.
philadelphia Press.I


Dir. Abbey's operate conductor gives an
ingenious explanation Of the $4,000 night
which Maplesou is popularity supposed to
pay Patti. The arrangement, according to
Viauesi, is one that Patti has been accus-
toned to make with European managers,
and is as follows: On the nights that Patti
sings she receives $4,000 for her services il,
after paying the necessary expenses OF the
evening, $4,000 are left in the treasury; il
there are not $1,000 she takes what there
is, and il there Is more than $4,000 Maple
son pockets the surplus. By this arrange
ment Mspleson is at least certain not
to lose anything by Patti, while
he has the immense advantage Of
putting her name at the head Of his pros
pectus and selling large number OF boxes
and seats for the whole season upon the
strength Of PATHS reputation. The SUBJ
scrlbers will not growl about second
class performance now and then IL they
can hear Patti once or twice week. In
other words, Mapleson is PATHS business
agent, furnishing opera-bouse, chorus, or
chestra, etc., for the chance OF making
more than the $4,000 which Patti appro-
pirates and the certain lustre which her
name sheds over the whole season.

Sarl DOmingO's Salt Mountain.

The Mining hecOru.l
The salt mountain OF Nevba, in tie
Island 81 San Domingo, is Z remarkab
natural curiosity. II il q solid mass )f
crystalline salt nearly four miles long. Il
il near the town Salina, about fifteen Mills
from tn. south coast OF the island. Tie
natives have mined salt from it for the r
own use for hundreds OF years. At ole
point there is a palisade OF pure white salt
rising slmost perpendicular to height Of
go feet, ,ifording vertical area OF about
1900 sIuare feet Of salt without a
seam OF crevice, and as solid as block
OF marble. The salt can be seen cropping
out in spurs from the mountain, AMI
at p,acts where the rains have washed
away tn. everything soil. The mountain S
estimate to contain /, 267 200, 900 cubic fee,
81. 237. $50 tons Of salt. The salt is exceed
ingly pure, containing only per cent. IL
foreign matters. 1t can be cut out in huge
blocks - hard and as clear as crystal.
Type Goa be read through a solid foot II
some OF these specimens. The mountain :,
geologiss say, was once plain at the boz
tom OF the sea, and as the island rose nom
the ocean this plain formed the bottom 81
a shallow lagoon, where the salt was do
posted. The mountain has been pu-
chased Nv a New York company with a
view OF developing it. They will build 4
railway o the mountain, and they expect
shortly u begin the importation OF the sa
into this country. They expect to sell I
AT q. 05 ! ton, about half the present cot
OF salt o the same quality.

A Pittsburgh telegram to the New York
World says: The detectives who arc work.
ING up the alleged clue as 10 the where
abouts Of Charley Ross said to-day that
the outlook was very promising. Mr.. I.
Baird. prosecuting attorney OF Cheyenne,
Wyoming Territory, who is now visiting
in this city. says that some five weeks a2oa
brother OF the BROOKLYN burglar Mosher
was lynchod in the suburbs OF Cheyenne for
the murder Of John II. Wentzell and muir
derous attack upon jim Knight. compan-
ion OF WentzelI. lie said before his death
that he had been compelled to 20 West be-
cause OF participation in crime which bad
become known throughout the world. lie
said he had been the custodian OF person
for whom ransom had been demanded FOR
over year, and that the detectives, after
the killing OF Moshcr, his brother, in
Brooklyn, were so hot on the trail that he
was forced to fly. The crime with which
he was charged was 60 cold-booded that
the citizens Of Cheyenne and vicinity
formed m organization on Sunday, and at
O'Clock following the murder OF Went
Zell they took Moshcr from the custody OF
the officers and escorted him to the woods.
1t was then that he offered 10 give the In
formation, but the lynchers did not have
time TO wait, and the execution was COM
pleted IN few minutes.
During his residence in Cheyenne he
had spoken frequently Of the crime charged
against his brother to confidential friends,
but It was not until after his body had been
dangling for nearly twenty-four hours that
these friends told what had been commune
Gated TO them. The general impression OF
the people Of Cheyenne is that Mosher,
who was sometimes called Moore, and often
Mosicr. brought Charley Ross west with
him, and that the child might have fallen
into the hands OF the party whose confess
sion At st. Louis has Just resulted in the
visit Of the father to that place and the de-
velopment already made known. The man
through whom Mr.. Ross is working has
said that Charley was in Wood-River set
tlemeut, in Illinois, between Alton and
Edwardsville, and had been there long
time with q family OF negroes.

Heavy Failure I'm CIeyeiaud.

by telegraph to the DtspatchI
CLEVELAND, October 90. -To-day's sem
satlon in business circles is the failure Of
John n. Glddcn, secretary OF the Repub-
lie Iron Company. Late yesterday the
company fled n clam against him for up
wards OF $4,000. on which he confessed
judgment. Az security the company holds
his stock, the market-value OF which is
about quarter OF million; but it is un-
derstood that considerable Of this is
pledged for other debts, and questions OF
priority OF claim are likely to arise.
Glidden says his failure is solely attri-
buted to the shrinkage Of values in legiti-
mate iron business. His Indebtedness to
the company is for ore purchased for his
own account and sold to other parties and
for transportation. lie says that in year
and half he has lost over $4,000 from
this cause. He will call meeting OF the
creditors and ask an extension OF time.
Glidden's embarress ment will not affect
the Republic Iron Company, the capital
stock Of which is S2,500,000. The COM
pany owns valuable mining property.
Nor will it affect the firm OF Glidden Il
MANNING, which does strictly commission
business and has no debts.

The hall Of the Young Mems Christian

dorfer. ~ did not say that. But / am
