on the bottom Of TIE pile. as rehuke for
the suggestion. The result OF the whole
matter will undoubtedly be that new
rule will be made by secretary
Fairchild. In the future al
warrants Will undoubtedly be
made payable to parties in interest, and
attorneys must make arrangements win
their clients beforehand by re aininL tees
or otherwise, so that they are secure.
For many years this same sort OF thing
has been a nuisance in the Treasury.
Shysters and INSCRIPTIONS claim agents
obtain all sorts Of claims for collection,
and agree to take a certain percentage
on the money when collected. 1t Is be-
lieved that the new rule, when strictly
In force, will smut out great
many people of this kind. More
than 1000 warrants for the payment OF
awards in the Alabama Claims Court are
hung up IN the Treasury bureau Of contro-
versy. In some cases parties in interest
show written contracts with attorneys
that they were to be paid or 10 per cent
The attorneys are not satisfied with that
amount, as they claim that the amount OF
the awards have been cut so that this
sum does not pay them for their labor
and money expended.

every thing you ever read of her, and
here's life size, fill-lenCth portrait. TO
begin at the baptism, she is rs, but as
youthful as 90 in looks and actions. Her
eyes are blue and keen, her ears are be-
ginning to be treacherous, but she is not
too sensitive TO pretend that she hears
when such is not the case. You will be
surprised to know that she has a touch OF
goitre, an old, old malady. and all her
collars button up close under her ear tips
Worth makes all her gowns, and the only
direction he ever receives Is "high-
necked." Her suite at the Grand Union
includes dozen of the choicest rooms on
the first floor, Immediately over the office,
fronting on Broadway. and commanding
either end of the piazza on that thorough
fare. The mistress Is a Zealot on the SUBJ

Al 80 a. m. and p. m. her victoria

Mrs. Wetherell accompanies her. She
has no pets. no lap robes, and no valet.
Her hats are usually white. her gowns

and her face well yelled with dotted lace
or gauze. She is frequently seen on the
garden piazza at the morning concert,
but rather shuns society. At the Hilton
lawn party yesterday Mrs. stewart wore
mauVe satin reception toilet covered
with a princess robe of cobweb black
lace. The pattern was a bell flower, and
in the cup of each blossom was a small
tassel of black jet Stimulating the stamens
and fairly bewildering the eyes with their
lustre. At her throat was q row OF big
white diamonds set in lace min, aud her

Dreadful Stories from the Drought

Dreadful Stories from the Drought
Stricken Portions of Texas.
DALLAS, TEX, Sept. S.-Tales of suffer-
ing and restitution continue to come from
the sparsely settled and new portions of
West and Northwest Texas, and Appeals
for aid 10 the merchants of the large towns
are numerous. Some of the recltals of
misery are of the most touching charac-
ter. Mr.. Kirby, q leading citizen OF An
son, the county seat Of Jones county, in
the centre OF the Panhandle, 300 miles
northwest of Dallas, arrived in the
city to-day to forward aidlmovemen is for
the suffering in that section. He repre-
cents the misery prevailing as OF the most
extreme character. Crops have been a
total failure, and rain to amount to so
much as a good shower has not fallen in
fourteen months. He says in Jones county
there are over four hundred families of
new settlers who are absolutely on the
verge OF starvation who must be given
immediate relief or they will actually die
for want Of the cOmmonest necessities Of
lite.
MIR. Kirby says the people OF the adj
joining unorganized counties attached to
Jones for judicial purposes are in equally
as pltiable condition. He says also that
it is impossible for live stock to be WIN
tered in that immediate section; that the
whole country presents the appearance
of vast desert without blade of grass
or verdure of any description, and that
total absence OF water Is the actual
condition. MIR. Kirby severely criti-
cises those people who for mer-
cenary reasons have circulated false
reports as to the extent of the
drought and famine and characterize it
as almost criminal for parties interested
In the sale of wild lands, ranch property
and the advancement of railroad town
site interest IN West Texas TO belittle the
fearful state of affairs by contradicting
reports sent to metropolitan papers
which in scarcely an instance he says
have been overdrawn. Dallas will fur
nish all the aid she can at the earliest
possible moment to the people Mr.. Kirby
comes to plead for.

A WONDERFUL REGION.
A Land Rich in Deposits of Gold
and Coal.

and Coal.
A Lander Wyoming letter in the san
Francisco Call of Aug. 8 says: A pros
pector, hunter and trapper, who has spent
many moons in the great Rocky Noun
tain chain, and who has lately visited
the portion of the Snake river range about
which so many dazzling reports are IN
circulation, has just been interviewed by
the writer. The old prospector tells
notable tale. He says that the reports
scarcely do justice to the reality,
and that the oil fields, gold mines,
copper veins and coal beds of the section
are eXhaustless. the region is spur OF
the Snake mountains proper, and lies be-
tween the waters Of the Upper Snake
river and those towering peaks called on
the mao the Grand TetOns. The section
comprises a number OF mountains In 0e-
tached groups, steep, high and rugged 10
look at and to ascend, but on whose sum-
mits are Invariably found rough plateaus,
we'll timbered and of considerable area.
These plateaus are the scene of the recent
discoveries.
Everywhere over these rough table,
lands breaks forth oil in both springs and
lakes. The latter apparently spes from
the soil and fills depressions and spreads
over fiat surfaces. The springs are OF
almost every variety. They bubble, spout,
well, and flow steadily and regularly.
The characteristics of the oil fields are
phenomenal. Every lake and every spring
has an outlet, and these outlets flow Tor
various distances, and are then suddenly
swallowed up by the earth. There Is no
apparent cause for these invariably start
ling disappearance. No cavity in the
ground exists. not even "a depression can
ha bI1t oil q tho nil stream Is
lost to sight. There can be only one ex-
PLANTATION, and that is that the whole oil
region is underlaid by an immense oil
lake, and that the OIl-fOws on the surface
have hidden and secret communications
Herewith.
The gold of the region comprises both
quartz ami placer deposits. The rough
tablelands are scanned with huge rocky
lodges prolific of free milling quartz. AT
the bases of these lodges and in the re.
cesses letting their sides are pockets OF
loose earth, in which are found in abun.

The coal beds are wide and deep. The

streams flowing through terrific noun
tain canyons and gorges to mingle with

AN UNKNOWN AVENGER.
Flo Johnston's Suicide and the
Death of Her Seducer.

From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette,
Early in the spring a great sensation
was caused in jamestown, o., by the sui
eide of Miss Flo Johnston. a handsome
young lady of good family, who killed
herself with an old army musket, firing
the load into her head. The same day she
had been to GAINESVILLE, about six miles
from jamestown, and had called on a
young man named James Zeiner, with
whom she had been keeping company for
some time, and demanded that he make
good his promise to marry her, and on Ze-
ner refusing she drew revolver and fred
at him, the shot not taking effect. The
young man wrestled with her and secured
the weapon and persuaded her to go
home. On the way to her fathers house
she passed pond, and was evidently
contemplating drowning herself, but was
prevented by the appearance of some
men; but soon after reaching home she
accomplished her object, living several
hours after shooting herself, ana sending
for Zeiner, VINO refused to come to her.
Excitement over the affair was intense,
and the girl having many friends in the
vicinity, Zeiner concluded togo elsewhere
for awhile. Threats were made that he
would be put out OF the way II he ever
showed up again in the village.
On TUESDAY evening ne palu WISH to
the village, and between s and 8 O'clock
went to the Cummings Hotel. Going in o
| the parlor, he sat down on the sofa with
! Miss Cummings and another young LADY,
| and at about Q rs some person on the out
! side, who had been watching Zeiner's
movements. discharged both barrels of a
shotgun, loaded with heavy slugs, through
| the window, the charges striking him be-
! tween the waist and neck, filing his body
! full Of slugs, one or two OF them striking
him in the head. His death was in
slant. The body rolled from the
sofa, and the floor OF the room
was covered with blood. The screams OF
the girls who were with him aroused the
people in the neighbOrhood. and soon the
! majority of the inhabitants OF the village
were gathered around the house. Word
was sent to jamestown, where the par
ents, brothers and sisters OF Zeiner re-
side. and the father who is an under
! taker, made preparations for conveying
the body bone to his house, from where
/ the funeral Will take place, interWent 10
be in the jamestown cemetery, the same
| place where the remains OF mis- victim, the
! unfortunate Flora Johnston, are laid.
There is great mystery about the at
fair. and no person has any idea who the
person was who did the shooting.
