A Refractory Audience.

A very sad thing occurred at late perfor-
 msnce given at Laramie City. At the close
 of the last act one of the principal perfor-
 mers is instantly killed. It is then the duty
 of the audience to rise, pick up it's umbrella
 and walk home. Sometimes, however, the
 audience is not familiar with the play and
 does not go home. It waits for more death
 and carnage before it's awful thirst for blood
 is glutted.
 That was the case at Laramie two weeks
 aeb. The stage hired man gho hanls the
 deAa-of into the dressing-room, waited pa
 tiently, but the people would pot go. In or
 der to get the full value of their dollar they
 desired to see the poss-morsena examination. They could not go homo until it had been
 settled that the villain was fully and thor. oughly dead.
 There he lay, with his ear against c kero- sene footlight, suffering, at nine dollars per week, and the audience absolutely refusing to go home and allow the man to revive or to requiescat in pace. The curtain, though loaded at the bottom with telegraph pole,
 failed to come down, and the legs of the ayenger and other members of the troupe fitted past the space left by the unruly cur. tain, and the dead villain lay on his back having yielded up his life four times that same week in the same manner, besides car rying the heavy trunks of the beautiful ac tress up two flights of stairs for her in three different towns.
 As there were no programmes people looked at each other and wondered. TheI knew that this man was undoubtedly dead but whether the company had fresh one ol not was the question.
 Finally two adult members of the troup, came forward and pulled down the refractor,
 curtain. Then the manager advanced to tn, front of the stage and in voice choked witl 1 emotion said:
 'Ladies and gentlemen, we would be glaa l to massacre some more of our troupe if VI
 could, but we cannot afford it. In 8 one stand town one man is about all that we cal
 yield up to the cold embrace of death. 0u printing is high, and we have to pay fftsel dollars for the hall. Therefore, we regret t

NEW YORK.

Labor and CaPftal-Jay Gould Before
 the Senate eCOmmittee-views of an Ex-
 pert on the Growth of MOnOpOltes.
 NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-At the request of Senators Blair and Call, Jay Gould gave the following brief history, after being sworn, at the capital and labor investigation to-day, be- fore the Senate subcommittee He was born at Roxbury, N. Y., in 1886, where he lived on a,farm and attended school fifteen miles distant. At fourteen he became clerk in store. At the end of two years he served g surveyor at $2O month In sur veying for himself, afterwards, he made $5, 900 and entered the tanning business at Prattsville, N. Y. His first railroad venture was the Rensselaer, and Saratoga out of which he made handsome profit. He then des- cribed his connection with the Union Pa cifc. Since then he has built up what is called the Gould system in the southwest which includes about 10000 miles of road, and which earned $7O,0OO month when he took possession. Last month the roads earned $5, 500, 1000. His connection with the telegraph was incidental to his rail road interests. He invested heavily in Western Union stock on account of the large returns. He thought the institutions of our country were opposed to the government system of telegraphy. The postofdce he thought would be better conducted by pri- vate enterprise. There could be no lasting competition against the Western Union on account of its great facilities. Where there were powerful rivals the rates were not reduced because the competitor was obliged to charge rates as high as the West ern Union in order to live. MT. Gould said that this had been his experience, and if anybody thought he could do better he twas certainly at liberty to try. The value of the stock in a corporation depended upon it's earning power There might be water in the Western Union, but the same could he said of all kinds of property which had increased in value. MT. Gould thought that the government had a right to fix limit be- yond which the profits of the company could not go, so long as the rates were not unrea- sonable; but it had not the right under re- publican institutions to take away private property from it's citizens without just com penBation.
 Continuing his testimony this afternoon MT. Gould said he knew of no corporation which pays such attention to It's employees as the Western Union company. They are as well paid as the employees in any other busi- ness and theirs is Ia nice genteel occupation. In regard to the danger from growing mon opolies MT. Gould said 'I don't think there is any danger in the future from cor porate franchises the fact that they are not Exclusive removes the danger they are not monopolies" He concluded by saying :: Nobody need have any fear about ms. l brought nothing into the world and it is cer- tain cannot take anything with me-"

Bsrk,s Stormy Ocean Passage.

BOSTON, Sept. 5.-The bark N. Boynton of Boston, Captain Mason, which left Manila on the 11th of February and Singapore April 20, arrived at this port to-day, having en- countered hurricane August 24th in lati- tude 24, longitude 6o which swept away two life-boats, stove in the side of the forecastle and the bulkhead of the carpenters shop and galley, breaking doors, etc, making a com plete wreck of it besides injuring some of the crew very seriously. One of the crew named Fred. Anderson received such serious injuries that he died in an hour after the ac- cident. He was native of Russia, thirty four years old and unmarried. His remains were buried at sea. The gale also lifted the rail and covering board on the forecastle so that the ends of the timbers were exposed, permitting the water to pour down below. The bulwarks and rail were split, the pump gear damaged, water casks and gangway washed away. The bark experienced bad weather during the entire voyage

A Lord's Experience in Arkansas.

Lord Higgleton, who came to Arkansas 1 with view to the purchase of large tract of timber land, does not like certain social l conditions which he found in the remote regions where the steam whistle has never disturbed the quiet of the squatter. | Some time ago, while riding alone through the woods, he lost the pretence of a road he I had been attempting to follow. Night came, | bringing with 1t 8 heavy black cloud from which torrJnt of rain began to pour. Just as he had despaired of finding 8 place of shelter, he saw a small light gleaming among the trees. Guiding his horse in that direc- | ton, he soon came to fence surrounding l small house.
 'Say, my good man., :" he called. ''You bet I'm good man." replied some one, opening the door. "Im counted the best man in this community. No longer ago know Abe, reckin ?" 'tNo, am not acquainted in this country" and thinking to impress the man with his l rank, which in America he knew was always toadied to, he added q am the Lord" ''The devil you say Then reckin you air stranger here. Jule," turning to his wife. 'tgit up. The Lords out here"
 ''You don't underst and me-" said the Earl of Higgleton, waiting for an invitation be- fore dismounting. q say l am the Lord

 Don't know podner-'scuze the familiar ity-but have reason ter jedge that yer air. Never seed man that could stay out in the rain without gittin' sorter damp" Look here, Pm tired of this foolish ness"
 'I'm lookin' thar, but kain't see noth- in'."
 "Well, blarst your bloody hide, haven't you got enough sense to ask man in out of the rain ?''
 ''Reckin I've got the sense. but I ain't got bloody hide, an it would take good 'un to bloody it. If yer don't believe it, jus slip shuck yerself'' ,
 ''No use, you know, to talk to me that way. I am graduate of boxing acade- my" carry a maui in one sleeve and handspike in the other, an 8 wedge on top O my head. "
 "You, pap" called the woman. ''Let the man alone. Didn't he say he was the Lord, or suthin' O the sort ?"
 1T ain't goin' to poster him, lessen he ags it on, but I-don't care if he's Gineral Jackson, much less the Lord, he kain't tam per with me"
 'EYeu persist in misconstruing what say" said Lord Higgleton.
 "Jule, did yer hear that word Blamed if don't think he is sort of Lord"
 q want to come into your house and dry myself by the fire" ''Then come on, fur yer are as welcome as the fresh air in June. Come in, sir," he added, as the stranger approached; you didn't say that you wanted to come in."
 ''But you might have known that did.
 ''Yes, but never try ter tend ter other folks business. It was norated aroun' this neighborhood onct that I could whip the devil, an when you said yer was the Lord I didn't know but yer wanted 8 little fun. Make yerse'f at home, sir. Jule, git the jug"
