A MYSTERIOUS PAPER.

Strange Will Left by General BEEN, of
Chicago, Who Recently Suiclded In Ne
brasl<a.
CHICAGO, May 1.-THE will of General
Martin BEEN was shown yesterday after
noon. 1t leaves to the widow only what law
permits. The bulk of the property is left
to his sisters at Alton, in equal parts. A
most important feature of the will is pri-
vate memorandum attached to it, dire citing
bis partner, Charles P. Sawyer, and
E. s. McComas, to make rigid
investigation into the manner Of
his death, and if he is found to have been
foully dealt with to prosecute those guilty.
He adds that his troubles have made him
suspicious and all that may be without
cause, but he refers vaguely to a letter in
vault (which may guide you as 10 whom
l have apprehensions of most danger.
have written her if she wants to be free"
Further down, he says the remark made
by him that he would try to kill himself,
was made for effect, as he had no such
purpose. If his death should be accidental,
destroy the memorandum, but enforce the
will, unless revoked. The memorandum
makes other disconnected references to his
domestic affairs, and says he 'fears poison
more than all else" The Union Veteran
League proposes to push it's investigation
thoroughly. Friends Of the dead man are
greatly surprised at this singular attach
ment to his will and hardly know what to
sav of it.

st. Paul's Cathedral Destroyed.
BUFFALO, \. Y, May 10.-This morning
was d. cidedy sensational and disastrous
one in Buffalo. A number of disastrous
explosions Of natural gas occurred almost
simultaneously, the result, as supposed, OF
an over pressure, and caused widespread
excitement besides destroying the finest
church in Buffalo and doing other damage.
St. Paul's Cathedral. the prize and glory
OF Buffalo, it in ruins. The entire interior
is burned out ana the roof is gone, but the
strong stone walls and graceful spire re.
main. At 800 o'clock flames were seen
bursting out of the fine stained glass win.
dows Of the church at the junction Of Main
and Erie streets and instantly
most OF the interior was a mass OF
flames. An explosion had occurred
in the basement, the furnace being sup
piled with natural gas and the force was
SO great as 10 tear off and blow out the
heavy doors on the Erie and Pearl street
side. In half an hour from the time OF
discovery the interior Of the church was
completely destroyed.
The fire was undou btedly caused by an
explosion of natural gas. as no smoke or
sign Of fire was seen until the great doors
had been blown into the street. Rev.
DR.. Brown retires from the rectorship next
month to assume charge OF st. Thomas
Church, New York. The church was
valued at about s25O,Oo0. Insurance-on

Meters in No. 6 and 10 station houses

age was done. Small explosions also oc.
Cured in Il number of residences. No one
has been reported injured.

Notes..

The cheapest and Jest mode of keeping
lice out of the poultry house is to add a
quart Of kerosene oil to each bucket of
strong soapsuds on washing days and
thoroughly saturste the floor, walls, roosts
and every portion Of the poultry house,
forcing the liquid into the cracks and crew
ices. It will kill the vermin as soon as it
shall touch them, being one Of the best in
secticides known.
Such perennial herbs as sage, pennel.
balm, mint hoarhound, lavender, rue,
thyme, savory and tansy are easily grown,
ard should be found in every garden, as
once obtained they require but little labor
and care.
Where the water is slow in disappearing
from certain portions Of the field the best
remedy Is tile drainage, which will incur
but little expense.
Hybrid perpetual roses are hardy aud
will make the front yard very attractive.
They should be put in q soil very fertile,
and in dry weather the earth should be
kept loose on the surface, which serves as
q mulch Keep the bushes In neat shape
by trimming, aud watch daily for the rose
bugs and slugs.
Shady places may be made attractive
with wild flower garden" the seeds Of
which. composed Of q mixture of larkspur,
mignonette, marigoid, foxgiove, candytuft
and peoples, can be procured at any seed
Store.

TARIFF CAUCUS.

Democratic Members of the House Caucus
on the Tariff Bill.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Democratic
caucus last hight called together about 125
members of the House. The proceedings
were harmonious throughout. Several Of
the Representatives, expressed themselves
as very much pleased with the good feeling
and desire for united action manifested on
all sides. Few speeches were delivered,
and in none Of them was there any thug of
threatening character. The caucus did
not attempt in any way to ''crack the par
~ LASH" or bind any member to abide by
its DEGREES. After few remarks by Mr..
Mills, who, in behalf of the Ways and
Meaus Committee, appeared to give the
fullest consideration to any representations
that might be made by any Democratic
member looking to the amendment of the
Tariff bill, the following resolutions were
adopted:
Resolced. That any member desiring to offer
any amendment to the Tariff bill. shall if the
same be now proposed. hand it to the secreta.
ries OF the caucus to be read and referred to the
Democratic members OF the Ways and Means
Committee, and il not already prepared, may
hand the same to said members. 1t shall be the
duty OF said members to consider all such
amendments. and, il requested, to hear the par.
ties Offering the same, and to report the amend.
ments back severally to another caucus TO be
hereafter held, with their recommendations
thereon.
Representative I. j. Campbell suggested
that it wculd be well if the committee
should agree not % report upon the amend
ments before the New York Democratic
convention is held next week, and to this
suggestion favorable response was made.
