COLUMBUS, o., Sept. l3.-The fine
display of California products and the
Ohio centennial detracted somewhat from
the attendance at the numerous reunions
of veterans. The meetings of the var
ious organizations continue to-day. The

sixty days or more, q service pension of
IS a month, and to those whose service

TEMPTATION TOO STRONG.
ManseI CIppy Steals sos From His
EMPLOYER.

Deputy Sheriff VIM. Vaughn arrived
from the North yesterday evening having
in custody one Mansel Cuppy, who will
be held to answer the charge of stealing a
pocketbook containing $2O5 from a Horse
shoe ranchman named Matthew Kewan.
The prisoner was given a preliminary
hearing before Justice Stuart, of Wend-
over, and bail fixed at $500.
1t appears that Cuppy was employed
by Kewan to assist at hay-making. One
rainy afternoon last month they repaired
to a saloon On Horseshoe and fell to
drinking. kewan became very much in
toxicated and'in settling his score left
his money on the bar. 1t was picked up
and pocketed by Cuppy, who at once left
for Douglas. Here he celebrated until
Kewan's purse was exhausted and when
without funds continued to make the
saloon his headquarters. In due course
of time an officer corralled the thief and
detained him at Wendover until witnesses
could be summoned.
Before the hearing Cuppy acknowl-
edged his guilt, saying that he could not
withstand the temptation to become a
boodler.

Cuba's Hurricane,

New ORLEANS, Sept. IA Pcayune
special from HAVANA says: In some
localities along the coast during the recent
hurricane entire fishing villages were
swept away. At Sagua 100 corpses have
been discovered which were washed from
graves, and it is believed that as many
more are III the mangrove bushes. Be-
tween Carapachas and Carahats sixteen
coasting %sc1ooners are high and dry in
the woods, damaged to such an extent
that they will be a total loss. Fish were
killed in vast numbers, hundreds of cattle
were drowned in the river and their car
cases now endanger the health of the
city.
At Santo Domingo City the dead ex-
coed fifty and the injured over seventy
five. AT Cayo Francis the lighthouse was
blown down and the inmates drownedaud
two large unknown vessels were wrecked.
Of forty six natives known to have per-
ished at Caribarien the bodies of but five
have been recovered. In the Vuelta Ar
rlba and Vuelta Abaio districts the ruin
is complete. Cane fields are laid fiat and
IT is estimated that the sugar crop will fall
short of last years yield over 60 per cent.
In Vuelta Abajo a number of dwelling
huts and outhouses were blown down. In
this district the entire fruit and vegetable
crop is a complete loss. The total num-
Der of deaths throughout the island is
stated at 800.

A new help to student work is for a pro-
lessor to gather out of the whole library
such books Ono matter how many as
he wishes his classes especially to study.
These are put in an alcove under his
name, his pupils having access to them
all day and take them oven night, return
ing them next morning. The plan is new,
but it grows in favor. In 1880 thirty-fve
teachers thus reserved $3.50 books. In
1855 tffty-six teachers reserved $3.50.
All books lent out numbered in 1880
Al 1885; in 1885, 80, 1875. This rate of in
crease greatly outruns that of the number
of students. It speaks of an increasing
industry and productiveness. And the

Afraid of HIS Tenants.

DUBLIN, Sept. l3.-Thc agent of the
marquis of Lansdowne some time ago
sought a conference with VIM. O'Brien,
member of parliament, with the object of
reaching a basis of settlement with the
tenants on the Lugg Acurran estates.
Before anything was accomplished the
agent suddenly broke off negotiations.
U Brlen declares the affair was a mere
ruse intended to keep the tenants quiet
while Lansdowne was in Ireland. O'Brien
says he will take means to ~acquaiut the

PoWderly's ADVICE.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 13.-The forth
coming issue of the Journal of United
Labor will contain a long editorial by
Powderly. He says he has received
numerous Suggestions that he come out
for this, that and the other political party.
He declines to do SO, saying he had no
authority over the political position of the
knights, and suggests that if he should
take up the cause of either the United
Labor party or the Union Labor it would
tend to iniure the chances OF some of the
legislative candidates of the knights in
some of the states. He says nobody has
any authority to state what his position
is on the subject of protection, and that
he will, either before or after election,
prepare them for publication. He sug-
gests that workingmen watch legislators
as carefully as they watch candidates.
He also, without naming him, takes occa-
sion to score Secretary Litchman for trea-
son in quitting the knights to take part
in politics. He repels the charge that
the order is affected by dry rot" and
suggests that it is doing the great and
only work Of educating and uplifting the

schurz on American Politics.

BERLIN, Sept. 13.-Hon. Carl Schurz
has written a letter to the National LEI:
tung, combating the article which ap-
peared recently in the Kreuz Zeitung on
the corruption incident to American
elections. Schurz attacks especially the
assertion that the presidential election is
from first to last merely an affair of money.
He declares this %dishonoring suspicion
cast upon the American national charac-
ter is unjust; denies that political life in
the United States is any wise so corrupt
a pandemonium as the Kreuz Zeitung
represents. The American nation, he
says, is staunch, great hearted and self
