AFTER THE FAIR.

Gone are the wonderful squsshes and b, 1ns,

The bu, er and honey, the cider and cheese,
The rye and the oals and the wheat
The chickens of breeds both novel and new,

The iakirs, the swings the varied church c0oths;
Which SOW always less than they resp
The quilts and the "shams," the knitting and lace,
The tide all women ADMIRE,
But left to the men would speedily find

Which fill in the blanks of the race;
The gray and his erl, the "dudess'' and "dude,"

RAUCK'S RACKET
Was q Little Surprising to Marshal
Shy Yesterday Morning.

There were seven cases before Recorder
Sturman, A. j. Ersken, Thomas Kerr.
Thomas Kelly and I. K. Joyce, who had
been attending the fair, pleaded guilty to
of the above mentioned lushers were sup
piled with means and liquidated their fines
Immediately upon being arrested. The
marshal, however, who yesterday morning
pleaded guilty for each one of the offenders,
only collected S. per head, supposing that
as usual in plain drunk, where plea OF
guilty was entered, the regular fine of S.
would be imposed. The recorder thought
that this being fair week. and the prisoners
having plenty of money, the opportunity
should be improved to swell the revenue Of
the city, and therefore raised the fine
slightly.
The marshal was little surprised at
this action on the part of the recorder, and
protested against being held responsible
for the additional 81 in each case. The
m after will probably be compromised by
stay OF execution to the amount of 81 being
granted in each case.
While Marshal Shy was only following
an old custom, established by his predc-
cessors of receiving fines from prisoners,
and entering plea of guilty for them, it is
to be hoped that his little experience yes
terday will have the effect to break up the
pernicious practice.
Neither the marshal nor any one of the
policemen have the right to receive money
from any one in liquidation of fines, neither
have they the right to accept bond for .
prisoner, or to appear for him in the police
COURT Every bond given for the appear
ance of prisoners is worthless unless ap-
proved by the recorder. The officers max
ing arrests have no authority to receive
collateral security, no matter what the
amount, for the appearance of any one
whom they have arrested. Every person
charged with an ofense against the city
should, when his case is called, be COM
PEELED to appear either in person or by at
torney.
In addition to the above mentioned
cases, Robert Allen pleaded guilty to- dis
turbiDg the peace and was fined "a.

The Case Dismissed.

San Francisco, Sept 7.-To-day's pro-
ceedings in the Hong Kong Chinaman
habeas corpus case before Supreme Justice
Field and Judge Sawyer proved a greater
absurdity than those of yesterday. 1t
turned out that no such Chinaman as the
one mentioned was on board the steamer
Arabia, and the Chinaman at Karam adj
mitted, when brought before the court,
that he had not made any Applicant On for
a writ to be discharged from the vessel.
Judge Field said the court had been
triHed with and ordered the case dismissed.
The statement late last night that a case
was manufa :tured was uncon6rmed by the
proceedings to-day, the object being to test
the restriction act in respect TO Hong Kong
Cinnamon. 1t was believed tha, Judges
Field and Sawyer, sitting in banc, would
disagree, and in this manner get the matter
before the supreme court.

Fraudulent PensiOn-C Claim Agents.
(By telegraph to the Dispaich.I


WASHINGTON, ID. c.. November 22.-The
Commissioner OF Pensions has sent the
names OF nine pension-caim agents to Dis
trict- Attorney Corkhill for presentation to
the grand jury for inducing eX-Confede-
rate soldiers to file claims for pensions and
taking fees from them. The papers in
these cases make it evident that circulars
have heen sent through the South designed
to create the belief that eX-Confederates
can obtain pensions. In some cases 1t is
Beloved that agents OF some OF the firms
here have visited some sections OF the South
to procure such applications.
The whole affair is a fraud, as no such
application can be entertained, and the
sole purpose of the agents Is to prevail
upon those they dupe to pay fee. Wit
nesses have been summoned in these cases.
II eX-Confederate soldiers or their friends
at the South will send any circulars they
may have received or any facts within
their knowledge showing the payment OF
fees in such cases to District-Attorney
Corkhill here, steps will be taken at once
TO punish these agents who have de-

Suicide of the Archbishop OF Prague,
From the Wiener Extra Bl.tt.I


DIR. Prucha, the Archbishop OF Prague.
Bohemia. committed suicide on the 9th OF
October last. According to the Czech. the
clerical organ of Prague, the eminent
clergyman suffered from an hallucination
that he was being prosecuted ever since he
was obliged, for reasons OF health, to resign
the Budweiser bishopric. He regarded
himself as a criminal because he had OPP
posed Divine Providence, and expressed
the fear that he would be removed from
his high position. and that then he
would have nothing TO live for. For some
time he was prey to melancholy, and his
housekeeper and valet had strict orders not
10 leave him alone. On the day Of the
suicide DIR. Prucha returned home
from pleasure ride, and asked
the housekeeper for some soup. When
the woman returned with il the foot
man left the room to fetch some beer from
the Archbisbop's palace. Hardly had the
latter gone away when DIR. Prucha or
dered a different soup. The housekeeper
went 10 fetch ii. and when she returned
she found the door locked. Susspectng
some calamity, sue ran away, and met
the valet in the corridor, who penetrated
into the room through another entrance.
The Archbishop bad hung himself with a
leather strap on the door-spring. The foot
man at once cut The strap, placed the life
less body on the sofa, and tried to resusci-
tate il. DIR. Zalenka, the convent physi-
clan. and DIR. Krema. the Archbishop's
medical adviser, were summoned, but they
could only certify that death had already
set II. The certificate states that the act
was committed while The Archbishop was
in an irresponsible condition.

Lawyers Disappearance.
FINANCIAL TROUBLES COMPEL nm TO LBAv
READING.

kEADiNb.
A Reading PENN telegram OF the Dist
SAYS: The disappearance OF stephen NJ.
Meredith. wcll-known lawyer, has ere
ated great sensation in this city. lie was
last seen at s O'Clock this morning, carry
ing satchel and shawl-strap. He wrote 4
hurried note ut the railroad station and
dispatched il by messenger to his wife,
the contents Of which have not been d.
vulged.
Mr.. Meredith had been in financial trou-
BILE for some time, and previous to his de-
parture confessed judgment TO bis brother
in.law, mother-in-law, and near neighbor
for amounts aggregating $1,000, waving
exemption To-day his personal property
was seized by the sheriff, including his law
library, and his house was closed. His
wife left with her child, and has gone to
her parents.
The missing lawyer had fine residence
and lived well, and he was supposed to
have lucrative practice. Various reasons
are assigned FOR his disappearance. IL is
stated that he lost large sums recently in
speculations and business ventures, and
that ne has been in straitened circum-
stances fer some time. He took an active
part In politics, was chairman OF the
Democratic City committee, president
OF various Democratic clubs, member OF
the Democratic County Committee, and
member OF the school Board. Previous
to bis departure he fixed up his legal pa
pers and placed them in charge OF eX-City
Solicitor Dettra. II is believed that he was
making preparations for his flight for some
time, as several days ago he remarked TO an
intimate friend that he was heavily In
volyed in debt and could not stay here
any longer. He had been endeavoring to
raise money among businessmen during
the past week, a number of whom hold his
checks.
Mr.. Meredith is the second lawyer who
has cleared out within short period on
account Of financial difficulties, John G. X.
Hene, another active Democratic politi-
clan, having gone away several weeks ago,
leaving great many debts behind. Moth
Ing has been heard from him since, and il
is rumored that Meredith has gone to meet
him.
