A Happy Family.

There was a lively scrimmage at
a meeting of Socialists in the city
Of New York Monday. 1t origi-
mated in a quarrel between two fac
tions, one of which had issued a
circular denouncing the dynamite
outrages in England which met
with disapprobation of the other
faction. Tumult ensued and sticks
were flourished by the crowd, caus-
ing interference on the part of the
police. The latter finally quelled
the mob, freely using their clubs
to do so. One of the leaders of the
Socialists, Justus Schwab, was ar
rested. The captain of the police
and one of his men were slightly
woundcd.-N. o. States.
The enterprising Schwab, is said
to have asked Rosa to send a gang
of his dynamiters to break up the
meeting. A dynamite bomb was
found in the hall.

markable mineral resources, have
been comparatively little known,
and her wonderfully fertile soil,
has hardly been heard of. The
finest tobacco in the world, is said
to be the product of North Carolina.
She has one of the finest mineral
displays at the Exposition, and her
mountains are as grand, and beau
tiful, as could be desired.
Yet in spite of all this, 1T is a
rare thing to hear North Carolina
spoken of. In the northern papers
YOU see accounts of the Alabama
iron, and the Mississippi cotton
mills, are a fruitful topic, for fright

He Got Her.

A young man asked an old gen.
tleman for his daughter in marriage.
The answer was, go into the orchard
and bring in a parcel of apples.
Give me onc-half Of the whole
number, and to the mother one
half of the balance and half an ap-
pie over, and TO the daughter, one
half of the remainder and half an
apple over, and have one left tor
Yourself without cutting an apple,

how many did he bring?

RESULTS OF ADVERTISING.

One of the most remarkable re-
suits of advertising, is shown in
the matter of the different southern
states. Shortly after the war, a
cotton mill was started in South
Carolina, and it was talked of all
over the country. Other mills were
put up in that State, more talk fol-
lowed, and soon South Carolina
became celebrated in the matter of
cotton mills.
Within a comparatively few
years, Mississippi cotton mills have
been much spoken of, as have those
of Alabama. Georgia, has heen long
known, as the most progressive
state in the South, and, known to
possess numerous cotton mills.
These four states, have been talked
about, written about, and pulled,
until they are, almost, as widely
known as the United States, Ala
bama, has become more widely
known, on account of her great
mineral resources, than she would
otherwise, have been, and these
mineral resources have been thor.
oughly advertised, to the great
benefit of the State.
| But while the four states men
toned, have been thus advertised
state that has never been mucl
talked of, has quietly been goinl
ahead, developing her resources
and now, she stands in the yer,
| front rank of progressive states
The statistics show, that in tn
number of cotton mills, the Stat
that stands first, is not the go-ahea

Fred Grant has declined Cap

in being restored to the army, and
because he is deeply in debt, and

DECISION AGAINST BRECKINRIDG

DECISION AGAINST BRECKINRIDGE.
The celebrated case of Henry |
Tovey VS.. Col. Breckenridge, Su-
preme Treasurer of the Knights OF
Honor, was decided by Judge Bax-
ter in the United States Court yes
terday, and was complete victory
for Tovey and the Supreme Lodge.
1t will be remembered that
Breckenridge was charged with hav-
ing in his possession $4,000,
which he held as Supreme Treas
urer, and which consisted of death
benefits belonging to widows and
orphans of deceased members. The
Supreme Lodge moved its head
quarters from Louisville, KY, to
the State of Missouri, and Brock
inridge claimed that no officers
could be elected outside Of the
State of Kentucky. He, therefore,
refused to pay any death benefits
on the order of the Supreme Die
tator, who was elected in Missouri.
The case was tried before Ken
lucky Chancellor and decided i'll
favor of Breckenridge. Tovey took
the case to the United States Court
and the judgment of the Chancel-
Tor was reversed.
Besides Breckenridge the PEG,
: Piles Bank of Kentucky and the
lodge were defendants. Breckin'

Judge Baxter, in deciding the
= case. said he regretted exceedingly
that he was unable to appoint ;
receiver for the entire fund in Mr.
y Breckinridge's possession. Mr.
u Tovcy's claim is but $1,000, and h,
, has no right to ask for greater Sc

A MODEST FLOWER.

Every year there comes mild
refrain. to the effect that 1t would
conduce to the general peace OF
mind, if a water report from Helena
could be daily occurrence. Every ,
year some ignorant editor insinu-
ates that a signal service station
ought to be established at H elena,
and every year the insinuation is
met by long letter from an indi-
vidual at Helena, saying there
is signal service station there
and there must be some foundation
for the statement, for every year,
about the time the water begins to
fall, there is daily river report
from Helena.
This year the same old suggestion
of a daily report from Helena, APP
peared, and as usual comes the
letter from the man at Helena stat
ing, that the signal station is there.
A few extracts from this last letter
will explain the heading of this
article.
Ash told YOU last Spring, there has
been n Signal station at Helena, UNDER
MY CHARGE, from 1874 to the present
time, except few months, when Con-
gress failed to appropriate enough
money to pay for it.
You speak of the advantages of a re-
port from Helena; but / think you
want to know what have to say about
the prospects of high water, more than
the report as to the stage of the river
As an illustration: Last year, 1884, after
the river came to a stand at CAIRO, ano
for FOUR DAYS AFTER, the rlver only
rose II inches in "a hours here, anc
you 80 reported it in your TABLE 0i
SIGNAL SERVICE REPORTS. You wouiC
have told your readers that "the riVel
was about stationary at Helena, an.
the danger of overflow past" But
warned you what to expect, and TIT
rise after that was THREE FEET, and a.
. much rs eleven inches Of that in
hours. The signal report would no
have warned you what to expect from
the Yazoo, but ! did. So it is what
> say. rather than the Signal Service.
! will warn YOU as soon as the rive
is high enough to do You any damage
The Cairo report is just as good a
] Helena. to indicate the height a
Vlcksburg-until the water there get
above "A feet:
The effect Of the Mississippi Levee
will be to raise the water along the VI
zoo front, until it gets an outlet in on
e or the other swamps, either the lazo
or Tensas, below Arkansas City. A
!. the levees are not completed on II
Arkansas side, the increased elesatio
will pass over into the Tensas swan
and come out at Red river. This WI
:, relieve all that portion from Provident
|, or Greenvi.le down to Red river. Shoul
!, the Yazoo levees hold, you will n
j. have over AZ feet on your gauge, !
IS matter how high the river may get
Cairo, Helena or Arkansas City.
1t is therefore not 50 much
e question of the signal service r
!, port, as it is a question Of the wi
# lingness of this bashful gentlema
e to say something, for he know

The object Of the ball was to raise money

and several hundred dollars were proba-

receipts nor the expenses are known, so

PRETTY AND HELPLESS.
A Rustic Maiden's Journey from
Iowa to Cheyenne.
Coming West in Search of Her
Cowboy Brother.
please Sir, Where is the Nearest
Cattle Ranch 2"

Among the passengers who arrived
from the east Sunday evening was a
pretty. but demure and rather unsophisti-
Gated girl, who seemed undecided what to
do after she had alighted from the train.
She was observed by officer Bean, who
had no difficulty in detecting that she was
unused to the ways of the world. He
conducted her to the waiting room, where
he questioned. her and gathered from
the recital of her story a bit of romantic
adventure that has about it a touch of
pathos.
For several years the girl has lived at
the home of her uncle. Mr.. James Smith,
not far from Des Moines, Iowa. By the
recent death ofthat relative she became
homeless, and with only her scanty savings
started for the west in search OF her broth
er, who she said worked on a cattle ranch
just north of Cheyenne" She evidently
thought the ranch was a mile or two from
the city, and was helpless when she
learned that her brother might be more
than a hundred miles away. She did not
know by whom her brother was employed,
and her situation was made the
more embarrassing by reason of
an accident which befel her
at Omaha. While changing cars at that
city, she forgot a package containing let
ters from her brother. and nearly all of her
money-some twenty dollars. SO when
she arrived here her embarrassment was
increased by her lack of funds.
After hearing her story Officer Bean
kindly Interested himself in her behalf
and visited nearly all Of the hotels and
restaurants with the hope of obtaining en-
ployment for the girl until she could find
her brother. lie was unsuccessful in his
efforts until he repeated the girls story to
Mrs. Donnelly- III ffschmldt, at the restau-
rant on Sixteenth street. That lady need
ed no additional help in her restaurant,
but kindly consented TO give the girl 4
home for the present. Yesterday a re-
porter ofTHE LEADER called at the res
taumnt and inquired for the girl.
A young lady about 10 years of age, who
was handsome in spite Of the uncompro-
missing simplicity of her attire, was intro
duced as Miss Smith. She reiterated the
facts as above given, and added that her
brothers name was Charles Smith. He
has been away from home for
about three years but for
the past year has worked on a ranch north
Of Cheyenne. He dated his letters from
this city and to it his mail was also di-
rectcd. He wrote to his sister regularly
until about six months ago when, his let
tiers ceased. The death Of her uncle made
her homeless and friendless and she had
