every boy wore pair of white pantaloons and
black jacket When the schools closed the
pupils would march to some church or hall to
hold the closing exercises. At our school one
year We agreed to take the shine of the other
districts by practicing marching, and wearing
jackets, with glazed caps and leather belts. The
latter had 10 be purchased. A cOmmftte was
appointed and a halter In Georgetown given
the contract, the belts and caps TO cost about 80
cents each. This contract was to be filled on a
certain day, and the boys were to call and re-
ceive them in bulk. When the day arrived the
goods were not ready, and the following day an
indignation meeting was held. After the boys
had given their views a proposition was made
halter by turning their money into copper. This
plan was adopted, and each boy drew out his
silver aud converted it into copper pennies.
Some days afterward word was received that
the hats and belts had come aud the boys of
the committee went to Georgetown in an omni-
bus with about three thousand old coppers in q
satchei. They chuckled as they went at the
joke they were playing. On arriving at the
store they handed up their money and were
formed them that he would have TO see that the
cash was correct. He proceeded chucxling at
our discontinue, to ieisurely count the cash.
This. as may be supposed took some time and
before he was through We learned that il was
not SO easy to take joke as to give one.
HOW THE BOYS GOT HOLIDAY.
"Holidays! Yes, we had some, but not near
as many as the schools have now, Christmas
Easter, February 22d and July 4th, with an
even month in August being all the boys en-.
joyed. Once We got one by setting Franklin
square on fire on an October day. In those
| days the bed of the square was from three "a
twelve feet below the sidewalks surrounding
| 1T and was grown up in high grass, which was
thin and dry. The military with some visitors
| were To parade and we had petitioned without
| effect for holiday. AT the 10 o'clock recess sew
| erai boys went up 14th street, saying there
would be no more school that day. In few
| moments q dense flame and smoke started The
bells to ringing and the pupils ran of to see the
square burned down."

THE MAGNITUDE OF THE DAIRY BUSINESS
Perhaps gentlemen who sneer at this question
as trivial matter are not aware OF the maRni
tude of our dairy business and the damage to
that business caused by the sale and consump-
ton OF counterfeit butter. Statistics show that
the value of the butter, cheese and milk pro-
duct in this country last year was over $500.
100000. This is $3.50. OOO, 900 more than the
entire oat crop Of the country, e4l0, 600 600
more than the pig iron product. $257, 100000
more than the iron and steel product 81 DO
OOO, 600 more than the cotton crop that used to
be called king, and 800 600 600 more than
the entire wheat crop OF the country The
amount invested In mitch cows alone ia over
500, 600, 900, which is more than the capital
United States. Surely . business of such mag
nitude is worthy Of protection nom schemes Of
the bogus butter sharks that are seeking to
undermine il.
But this is not question solely of dollars and
cents, but Of the greater one Of health and The
right Of the people to have what they suppose
they are getting, and what they pay FOR.
Statistics show that over $4,000, 900 pounds a

Ryan, Clarkson, Flynn and Darling Darling is
the famous catcher of the Toronto club, aud
signed him yesterday. He is twenty-five years
old. five feet ten and one-half inches in height
and weighs ITO pounds. He has the reputation
of being fine base runner and heavy batter
He can throw a ball with any of the long
distance throwers, being swift and accurate. He
is temperate, which is another thing in his
favor"

prominence, and he wants Kelly to 60 into that
business with him. If he does play bali, it will
be in the Chicago team. Mccormick is not

won the League championship for three success
sive years, will be composed largely of new and
untried material next year.

retired, have been made public. Captain john
son was tried upon charges of duplicating his
pay accounts, and the court-martial returned a
verdict Of not guilty. Lieutenant general Sher-
dam who reviewed the proceedings, set aside
this verdict, however. In his Endorsement he
says that the court should have admitted evil
denee touching the character Of the accused
The Lieutenant-general further says:
'"Thas the accused admitted the execution OF
two sets of vouchers for his pay for the same
month lie shown by the record; and the evidence
also shows that he allowed these vouchers to
pass beyond his control, so that both were pre-
sented and paid. While it appears that the &C
eused made certain private arrangements Win
the persons holding his vouchers, yet the United
States was no party thereto, and was In no man
ner bound by them; and, although there may
have been extenuating circumstances, and the
Overdrawn pay refunded, it nevertheless ap
fraud for which Captain johnson cannot be held
oxeusable. The proceedings, finding and acquit
cal in the case of Capt William s. johnson,
United States army, retired, are disapproved-'
The release Of the accused from arrest has
been ordered and the court-martial dissolved
This action Of the Lieutenantgeneral in disap-
proving the finding Of the court acquitting the
accused is said to be almost without precedent
Ga the administration of military justice, al
though there can be no doubt as to its legality.
The accused stands almost in the same position
he occupied before trial, although he cannot be
tried again for the same offense.

From Speech at louisville. Pa.
If my errand is of any worth in coming to my
native State. it is to ask the Republicans there,
as they have stood sponsors in the past above
and beyond all other States for the protective
system, TO hold it with energy, to hold it with
confidence to hold it for victory. AS have said
before, the generation of voters for quarter of
a century in this contest for protection have
been aided and their designs promoted by the
potential aid of the national administration. No
one needs to be told how potential that is but
we all know its power, which has now been
transferred to the other side ard will be exerted
actively or quietly, directly indirectly, against
the continuance of the protective system. While
this has imposed great additional burden upon
the voters of Pennsylvania, / am sure if they be
made of the stuff whereof your fathers were
made they will only consider this as an ineite-
ment TO more faithful performance of their
duty, and that, instead of dseouraging, it shall
act upon you as an incentive TO so register your
votes on Tuesday next that not only the people
of this State, bat the people of ali the States
and the national administration at Washington.
may take notice that Pennsylvania intends to
take no step backward; that her face is towards
the future, as it has always been for the Ameri-
can industrial system, for the protection of labor
and for the protection of capital

She Jilts Her Soldier Lover, Who Comes from
the Far West to Find Her Married.
Louisville, KY Special.
Lieutenant John Sehon, Of the United States
army; arrived here last night from his post in
the C0ur d'Alene Idaho Territory and he came
on furlough, expecting to be married here on
Nov II. Tonight at 6 o'clock his sweetheart
married another man. When, year ago, it was
announced that the President would appoint ten
lieutenants in the regular army, to be chosen by
competitive examination, John Sehon was one of
about two hundred applicants and in the eXami-
nation stood one Of the first. Returning to
Louisville in the pride of success he renewed
his addresses to Miss Mary Allen, beautiful
girl of seventeen, who bad come here from Dixon
Springs, Tenn, to boarding-school and had re-
Gently graduated. She was here in her first
season in society, visiting her aunt. Mrs. H. P.
Field, and, caught by woman's fancy for a SOL
der, she engaged herself to Sehon.
Later she met Samuel Bush, handsome
young fellow popular in society, the son of the
State Librarian, Mrs. Lucy Bush. He had be-
come clerk in the auditors Office of the Louis
Vile, Evansville e. ST. Louis railroad, and lived
with his mother in this city. They fell in love
and for time were much together. About the
beginning of this affair Sehon was called away
to his army appointments, and before they be-
came hopelessly involved Bush and Miss Allen
quarreled. Miss Allen went for season in
Washington, kept up her correspondence with
Sehon, and set the day upon Nov. IL next, and
the place Louisville.
Sehon furnished house handsomely at the
post in Idaho. and set out on his long journey

Southern girl be would bring back. Meanwhile
Miss Allen had come back to Louisville, mel
Bush and renewed their affair. contrary to the
wish of her parents and her aunt. little more
than a week ago she agreed 60 marry Bush. II
is claimed she telegraphed Sehon, but he never
received the message. The wedding with Bush
was act for o'clock to-day. When Miss Allen
learned this morning that Sehon had returned
she tainted away. When she recovered her
friends urged a postponement and tried to per.
suads her TO marry Sshon. She was not able to
go TO the church at l o'clock, but still held out
for Bush. They were married by Bishop Penock,
of ST Andrews, and they took Intervening train
for Lexington.
Sehon is a nephew Of Gen. NJ Il. Wright, who
lost his life IN the disastrous cotton fire las,
January, and cousin OF Lisut. Sehcn Wright,
who graduated last summer at West Point.
