A MISTAKE.
How a French Prince Was Order
ed About in the West.

How FFenCh Prince was Oruef-
ed About in the West.
Chicago Times
The prince of the house of Orleans of
France-of cOurse-M. de Boissy, is in
the city. He is facing the sun in his
travels, having arrived here from the
Occident. A story on the prince:
He was coming East when hesarrived
at the gates of the Yosemite. Here he
concluded to turn aside, like Rasselais,
the Prince of AbySSinia, but for differ
ent reason. When the traveller enters
the Yosemite Valley he leaves the rail
road and takes up with the stage coach.
Over winding way he sees how
fantastical nature has been. Now
and then the coach halts at a
country inn under the shadow of some
strangely-fashioned mountain. Dinner,
or whatever the meal may be, is wait
ing. In this valley there are no coro-
nets, except those which the creator has
placed upon the peaks that gliSten in
the sun. There are no titles except
those which explorers have bestowed
upon the chasms and canyons that open
with a silence which is awe-inspiring.
The Prince of Orleans found this out.
He had to scramble for plate just the
same as did our own ID. Harry Hammer
when he rushed for the chair. 1t is
related, to the princes credit, that he
cOnform5d to the custom of American
haste and ''got there" In the midst of
his repast the prince bethOught him of
a message which he desired to give his
valet and LETT his chair and plate for that
purpose. There was a long, lank and
hungry Ohioan by the name of Harri-
TIn
when the prince quit his Mr.. Harrison
squatted where royalty had been,
showed the unfinished meal aside, and
turning to the waiter said, in high
key: ''Here =, bring me some meat and
corn and potatoes and bread and some
milk and butter, and be quick as you
can"
At this moment the prince returned
and found his seat taken by the gentle
man from Ohio. The prince remon-
strated with the waiter for his negli-
gence in allowing another to take his
place in a manner that dazed NJ. de Gar
con so that his tongue Glove to the roof
of his mouth. During the imperial re-
mOnstrance the prince shifted his posi-
ton so that he was between the back of
Mr.. Harrison and GarcOn. Mr.. Har-
rison was getting impatient, and turn
ing to the prince whom he did not
know, said: 81
''Here, why in the blank and blank
nation don't you bring me that meat
and them potatoes and quit standing
around like milestone. Now hump
yourself"
By this time the prince saw that Mr..
Harrison had mistaken him for the
waiter and changed his position. The
prince, however, when he was made
acquainted with the situation, laughed
at it, and said he would have to tell it
when he got back to his own country.

FAST BLACK.

most people liked black as standby.
Yes, most of us do like black if the
black will stay in the stockings and
off of our feet. 1t seems that every
body is going to wear fast black after a
while; for benevolent Mr.. Morley. of
London, has paid 100000 for a fast
black receipt, and free trade will bring
the fast black stockings over. The
opera hose are long, but they are not
long enough, and that causes the de-
mand for tights; but tight are disposed
of more readily in New York than in st.
Paul. Some of st. Pauls society ladies
are giving orders for them, and more
will probably catch on later. Colors in
underwear run about the same as in
hosiery. In silk undervests, pink, flesh
color and black predominant. A very
handsome undershirt is composed of
two colors, red ground with
black vest is among the handsomest
designs, the effect being more striking
than the black shirt with red vest.
Some fashion makers should have some
of these made shorter and spring them

GAINESVILLE has signed on trial q new
pitcher from Chicago named Quitsaw.
President Seeley left on the Baltimore
& Ohio last evening for Toledo, where
he goes to see Manager Buckenbcrger
and the team.
Mr.. A. j. Reach, of Philadelphia, pub
Usher OF the official American Associa-
ton Base Ball Guide and dealer in gen.
eral ball supplies, is in the city.
Allen, Barney and Devine, OF the To-
ledo team, have been released and the
riot act read TO the other players in con-
nection with Manager Smiths resigna-
ton, which it appears was asked for.
A clothing company at Lima offers a
handsome gold badge to the Tri-state
League player who makes the most
home runs during the championship
series.
Chris Won der Abe will, it is predicted,
find that he has made a mistake in re-
leasing Tom Nicholson. McGarr, the
present second baseman OF the Browns,
has made several faulty plays and is
weak on thrown balls.
'Tobe," the ebony-hued bandy-legged
mascot who gives visiting clubs the hoo
docs when they play here, is to have his
picture taken and sent to the club in
the hope that when they tack it up over
their bench it will strike terror to the
hearts OF their opponents.
John Nightingale, Mansfield's second
baseman, who was fined 500 and sus-
pended, has aired his grievances to the
chairman OF the Board OF Arbitration.
He claims rs his reason for refusing to
play on the day he was fined, that he
was so sick he could scarcely stand.
A special from Sandusky says that

Sandusky team, who was fined and sus-
pended last year on account OF his row.
dyism, and who has already made him
self obnoxious several times this year,
has been fined $50 for drunkenness and
insubordination, and has also been in
definitely suspended.
Sporting Life, in commenting on the
charge that Manager 0'Neil, Of the
Kalamazoos, deliberately jumped on
Sharp, OF the Cantons, and spiked him
in, the last inning Of game in which
Kalamazoo needed one run to win the
game, says that only a coward and n
scoundrel would deliberately spike
man and that if 0'Neil is guilty Of the
charge his case should be brought before
the directors of the League.
Mr.. W. 7. English, OF the management
of the Wheeling Association, left last
evening on the Baltimore & Ohio road
for Chicago. He goes on some secret
business connected with the clubs affairs
and this business is believed to have
something to do with the sale OF Della
hanty. While nothing definite is being
given out, people need not be surprised
at any time to hear that that desirable
player has been disposed OF. tits ru-
mored that in case such an event takes
place Manager Buckenberger will prob
ably be called on to hold the second bag
down in "Del's" place, Buckenberger
was a splendid player in that position
last year. Another rumor has it that
Mr.. English is after some one to replace
"Del" when he goes. The present roster
o. high priced men is said TO be too rich.
1t can probably win the pennant and
weaker men would fail to do SO.

Caught Mt MoundsVllle.
Lon Mc&lanaway was arrested at
Moundsville yesterday by ex-Chief Of
Police Tom Bennett, who brought him
to this city and lodged him in Jail,
where he will probably remain until he
is called in the criminal part OF the Cir
cult Court to answer three charges that
have been preferred against him.
Several months ago, it will be remem-
bered, this young tough and one Of his
companions assaulted farmer named
Bowman, as he was passing through
Fulton. Bennett was commissioned by
Justice Phillips to arrest them. He had
a lively time OF it with McAIanaway,
who resisted determinedly, and who
struck him powerful blow in the face
after he (Bennett) had gotten him to the
Justices office. His bal for appearance
ut court was fixed at $1,000, and after
some persuasion Mr.. Nick Crawley was
induced to go on his bond for that
amount, the bond being conditioned
that McNIanaway should appear in court
but but further time was allowed
Mr.. Crawley to find the fellow
before FORGETTING the bond. Bennett
was put on the case and soon learned
that his man was with John Robinson's
river circus. He searched for him ut
Martins Ferry Monday when the circus
was there and at Bellaire on Tuesday,
but the willy fellow kept hid. Ycster-
day the circus was at Moundsville and
there Bennett caught him mapping.

In wheeling Creek Believed to BIO Sam
Dudley Who MySteriously Disappeared.
1t has been about definitely deter
mined that the unknown tloater found
in the creek about three weeks ago, and
which after being unidentified by any
one was buried at the county's expense
by order of Coroner Schultze, was none
other than Samuel Dudley, well known
employee at the Riverside mill who had
been mysteriOusly missing for a week or
ten days previous. He walked away
one Sunday afternoon from the boarding
house on the South Side, run by Mrs.
Bowman, where he was stopping, and
was never seen or heard OF afterwards,
At the time OF the finding of the body,
which was badly swollen, the fact Of
Dudley'sd disappearance wasnotgenerally
known. At the time he disappeared he
was known to have had $40 in his peck
cts and like amount was due him at
the mill.
Mrs. Dudley, mother Of the missing
man, came down from Pittsburgh this
week and recognized fragments OF cloth
ing taken from the drowned man; she
also described marks on her son that
correspond to those found on the un.
known. She was inclined to the belief
that there had been foul play. She has
taken steps to have the grave in which
her son was inferred opened, and will
remove the remains to her home In
Pittsburgh for interment,

The wel.n Prize singers.

Considerable curiosity is being ex-
pressed regarding the celebrated Welsh
Prize Singers, OF Cardiff, Wales, who are
to give their entertainment ut the Opera
House next Saturday afternoon and
evening, and the indications are that
they will be greeted by good audiences.
They appeared in Schultz's Opera House
at GAINESVILLE, Tuesday night, and the
Times Recorder has this to say about
them: 'The entertainment is best de-
scribed by the word unique. The cos
tune OF the singers is that OF the home
country. The manners on the stage
simple and natural and the singing, ut
least the greater portion of it, touched
with the feeling OF pathos. There are
remarkably sweet voices among both
the ladies and the gentlemen OF the
troup; and they must have been tlatter-
ed with the lavish applause which greet
ed their efforts. The quartettes and the
harp solos charmed every one. In the
latter specially Mr.. Walter I. Barker
certainly stands without peer"

Henry Florsheim, of the Union Val,
ley mines at Finleyville, on the line Of
the Hempfeld branch Of the Baltimore
& Ohio, who supplies the gas works
here with nearly all the coal used, has
withdrawn fromthe Pittsburgh Railroad
Coal Association. The Monongahela
and Peters Creek Coal Company have
done the same. Mr.. Florsheim claimed
that they had been paying dues to keep
up the association, expecting all to be
treated alike, but so far all concessions
obtained by the association from the
railroads had been in favor OF more
direct shippers, leaving them out in the
cold.
