tiOus

IL Is reported here that Senor MOret

cratic Club, is to be appointed Spanish
Minister of Foreign Affairs. The ap-
pomtment of SenOr MOret to this office
would be regarded here as slenifying the
close OF the Alfonso incident.
MADRID, Oct. 12.-The leaders of the
dynastic Left will not be able to
decide as to accepting positions in the
new Cabinet until they know the pro-
gramme to he adopted by Senior Pasada

THROUGH NIAGARA RAPIDS.
Successful Trip of the Maid of the Mist
ScnM SncInd Indar


Nidg,trd FdIls SDeciaE to ". Y World. Ocf 10.
The Maid of the Mist, an imitation of
the original steamer which went through
the whirlpool rapids with three men on
board i'll 1879, was safely sent on the same
journey this afternoon. Excursion trains
poured many hundred people into Suspen-
sion Bridge and Niagara Falls. The spec
tators were scattered on the high bluffs
along the whole mile of rapids. At2:4O
O'Clock the dummy steamer was put out
from the old Maid of the MiSt's landing
She was tOwed by Charles Weidman,
Charles Person, Alexander Percy and
Henry Sippel in small boats.
Before the departure several persons in
the crowd were anxious to 90 through on
the boat. One man hid himself behind a
paddle box, and was not seen until She
was ten feet from shore. He was COM
PEELED to get off, and, the Oarsmen reflIs-
ing to take him to shore, he threw off his
coat and swan the distance. When in
the centre of the river the tow line con-
Meeting the boat was cut and the Oarsmen
left the craft in the currents power
She lay almost mOtiOnlesS for ten min
utes. Then the current carried her
quickly to the rapids. She struck bow
on, and was tossed about like a toy until
the whirlpool, mile away, was reached.
During the brief VOYAGE she was turned
.
| but during most Of the journey she rode
! gracefully on the top of the pillows,
slightly careening at the toughest points,
| but quickly righting herself, as if guided
and controlled by human agency. The
time was three minutes. A strong west
| erly wind was blowing and that kept her
| towards the American side. She safely
| passed the rnnl- noar which Captain Webb
was last seen alive and passed around the
| bend and down the river. She was not in
| the whirlpool proper at all. The boat was
| secured at Lewiston this evening"
| After the Maid of the Mist's passage a
small scOW carrying a sail was launched
on the current. Before she reacned the
! whirlpool her sail was torn off and her
| mast unseated. In the VIII ;rlpoOl she
| circled round three or four times, each
| time nearer and nearer the centre. When
she got between the opposing cur
rents she tn ned around rapidly until
thrown on end. and then was sucked
down out OF sight to reappear again near
where she sank. The third time was the
last and there was no temperance.
The usual eXtOrtiOns We're practiced on
the visitors and hackmen demanded $40
for a mile drive.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. l2.-In the Episco-

New Dloceses reported recommending the
consent OF the House of Deputies to the
creation of new diocese, to be known
as Western Tennessee. 1t will NOT be
granted, as it does not appear that the
article in the constitution regarding the
support of the episcOpate had been COM
piled with. Rev. DR.. Gray, of Tennessee,
said that his diocese was disposed to bow
to the decision of the convention. The
Committee on Canons reported recon-
mending that the words Protestant EpIs-
cOpalian be not left out of the canons.
Inc committee were at their request dis
charged The House again went into
committee of the whole on the report of
the Joint committee on the Revision of the
Prayer Book with Judge Shelly in the
chair.
At the afternoon session the House of
Deputies sat as Board of Missions, and
devoted much time to the discussion of
affairs in the diOceses of the Valley of
Mexico. The House of Bishops adopted
an amendment to the canOns, the House
OF Deputies concurring, allowing lay
readers to give public instruction under
the direction Of the Bishop. The testimo-

AN AVENGING BROTHER.
Following the Destroyer of His Happi-
ness for Eighteen Years.

PhiIGdeLDhtd Special to NetD York World.
A singular story has just been made
public here, in which a prominent busi-
ness man and his avenging brOther-in-
law are the chief actors. 1t seems that
j. G. WentZ, who occupies a high posi-
tiOn in prominent upholstery establish
ment on Chestnut street, near Eleventh,
is villain of the deepest dye. His per-
tidy, however, has been discovered and he
has left for parts unknown. The man
ner in which he was found out is inter-
esting.
On Monday morning last a man entered
the office Of the firm that employed
Wentz and asked for him. Mr.. Wentz
was up stairs, and the clerk asked if the
business was anything he could attend
to. The man then said: Il have here a
bill against Mr.. WentZ for $3.50, dated in
San Francisco in 1865, and this is the
fourth time | have presented it. Wentz
is william, and | have been pursuing
him for eighteen years. In 1868 We tn
arrived in San Francisco and obtained a
position in the same house in which /
was employed. A year later | started in
business for myself, and about that time
WentZ, through my cOnnivance, but
against the wishes Of my parents, mar
ried my sister. Then my father bought
WentZ one-third interest in my bust
ness. Shortly afterward | discovered a
series oil shortages III Inc cdSu account,
and traced them to WentZ. who acknowl-
edged them. had him arrested, but at
the instance of my sister | withdrew the
charge and he wass released. But
took his note for the amount named in
this bill.

| sold out my business in order to hunt

wrOnged me. For a long time | could
obtain no clue to his whereabouts, but
after ten years found HIM by accident
in Chicago. | presented my bill there,
then again in New York, and after that in
Brooklyn, and now for the fourth time
here"
The stranger handed the clerk the copy
I of some court record, on which was in
| scribed, 'EHenry ID. Garner" and left,
| saying he would call again for the papers.
| WentZ was informed Of the charges, but
! laughed at them. He left the store at >

acquaintances since, and he did not even

RAILWAYS CHASTITY GHOST.
A BIOOd-Stained Face Above a White
Body on Guard Near a Church.

An alleged ghost has been creating a
sensation in Railway, n. j., during the
past fortnight. The apparition was said
to have been first seen near the Episcopal
Church, i'll the lower part of the town,
on the night of September y, by two be-
lated citizens, who were badly frightened
by its antics. For several nights after
wards men laid in wait for the spo0k. and
they aver that they saw it, and are salts
fled that it is genuine ghost. 1t usually
promenades between y and 1 O'Clock at
night and assumes various disguises,
now appearing in long, white, flowing
robes, sometimes in black, and again pre-
senting a hIdeOus, bloOd-stained face. 1t
always vanishes like mist.
The many wild stories told about the
performances of the wonder have SO
alarmed ladies and children in the town
that few venture on the streets after
nightfall unless accompanied by gentle
men. Merchants complain that their
trade is suffering on this account and
anathematize the ghost
John Maiden, the Main street druggist,
said yesterday that his night trade had
fallen off 80 per cent. since the stories
about the ghost became current. Mr..
sham, of the mercantile firm of Sham
~ Son, gave similar testimony as to their
trade. The Chief of Police, who with
WV et'oioAttbto. SOliIIOoC IAethheg pOlACC
department, said that he was not a little
puzzled over the situation. He believes
that all the trouble has been caused by
practical JOkers, of which the town has
an exceptionally large number. The
story of the theft of the body of Mrs
Eliza Cory, from the Cory mausOleum in
Hazlewood Cemetery, he is inclined to
believe is of ghostly origin.
A citizen, who does not believe in ap.
partitions and who has kept his eyes and
ears open during the present scare, said
that he could show up the ghost in a
iitfy if he chose to do so, but he did not
care to spoil sport.
Railway is in utter darkness after night
fall and has been since May last, owing
to the failure Of the City Council to make
satisfactory arrangements with the gas
company to light the lamps.
