A CHALLENGE
To Oarsman Beach to Row Gaudaur for
s25OO a Side-St. John Places $500
Forfeit With the Herald.

BosToN, July II.
Mr.. J. A. ST. John, the hacker of Jacob A.
Gaudaur, champion oarsman Of America,
writes the Herald as follows:
"On the 18th of June sent challenge to
Bells Life in London, with draft on our
English correspondent for fl00 as forfeit
money. The challenge was from Jacob Gau-
daur to William Beach to row over the
Thames course for $4,000, S2500 side, and
the championship of the world, the race to
take place in the latter part of September. |
did not know that Bells life had ended its
career, and have been daily expecting an
answer by telegraph, but so far none has ar
rived. 1t may be that, owing to the stopping
of Bells life, the letter may not have fallen
into the right hands, or may have in some
way miscarried. In order to lose no further
time, enclose You draft for $500, to be
held as forfeit, and am ready at any time
to put up the balance as soon as articles are
submitted and the match made. | send to
you, as l know the Herald to better posted
than any one else, as to the best means of
reaching Beach without delay"
Mr.. ST. John says further:
Jake has just returned from Bay Ridge,
Md, with badly injured foot. He, with
the other scullers, was in swimming, and in
some way cut the ball of his big toe into the
bone by stepping upon sharp clamshell. |
am in hopes it will be well in two or three
weeks, but until it is healed, rowing or walk
ing is out of the question. 1t is big loss as
he was sure of the single and double scull
races at that regatta. If we get prompt re-
ply from the other side he will leave for
England about the 18th OF August"
Mr.. St. John thinks that Gaudaur can bring
the championship to America.

A BAD LOT.
Several Members of the Missouri House
of Delegates Held for Bribery and
Perjury.

ST. Louis, July II.
The grand jury closes its investigation of
the charges against members of the H ouse of
Delegates Friday night, and returned indict-
ments against six of them. Messrs. Waters.
Pishou. Breggman, Gattenoach, Keenan,, and
another whose name has not been ascertained
were indicted for drunkenness in office, and
Keenan,, Pishon and Brady for bribery in
connection with the investigation of the
Casino theatre, when the bill revoking that
theatres license for indecent performances
was before the House. The jury returned
two other indictments for attempted bribery,
one against DR.. Wellington Adams. the other
against Chas. A. Davis, an attorney. These
gentlemen had charge of the electric railway
bill and were present at almost every session
of the House urging its passage. The bill
failed to pass the House and it is said Dr.
Adams became enraeed at the members who
had voted against the measure, and threatened
to show up some of them in an unfavorable
light. Then followed the charges against
twelve delegates, that they were ineligible
to office having perjured themselves by swear
ing falsely to the oath when they took their
seats. This exposure naturally aroused the
wrath of the accused, and they gave Informs
tion to the jury which led 70 his indictment.

whether they will accept the gift. Now a
committee of the contributors to the fund
call a meeting of the contributors "to consid-
er and advise how the money which is now in
the hands of the treasurer, shall be expend-
ed" That meeting is to be held next Mon
day afternoon and much interest is manifest
ed. An unexpended Park Improvement Fund
is another one of Farmington's possessions
and both of the Pennington newspapers are
urging its increase and use. That such un-
expended funds are not wholly unalloyed
blessings, Pennington is now full convinced.

MAINE DISPATCHES.
ALLEGED MALPRACTICE.
Excitement in vanceboro Over the Death
OF Child.

VANcEEoRo. July II.
There is much excitement here over the
death of child from malpractice. and a doc
tor is in hot water. The child was Conduc-
tor Burpee's and the Aroostook Herald claims
that it bled to death as a result of opening a
small boil by the doctor, who bunglingly cut
a small artery in the operation and left it un-
cared for. The Herald says: "Competent
medical authorities decide that the sore did
need lancing, and from all we can learn it
appears to be case of criminally stupid NAL
practice. A post mortem examination BY
several physicians establsh the facts as above
atated, and to make 1t still more aggravated,
and after the little victim had been slowly
drained of its life force for "a hours, and Mr..
Burpee, on his arrival home, checked the
flow of blood, the practitioner again visited
his victim, and upon learning what had been
done, seemed angry and said the child must
bleed if they would save its life, put the lit
tie one in a warm bath, started the bleeding
afresh, and in five hours the child was dead.
The little one had always been healthy,
never sick and the general impression is that
had it been left alone, his afflicted parents
would not now be mourning his untimely
DEATH"
