MEMPHIS APPEAL: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 90 1885,
SACKvILLE'S SALE.
A Great Rage for Things That Are
English, You Know"

WAsHINGToN, Nov. 10.-At his grandest
reception today, the British Minister
never had a larger crowd in his house
than was witnessed here this morning.
Neither Lord Sackville nor any member
OF his family was present TO receive callers,
and they were barred out of a large
portion OF the house. The main hall, the
ballroom and the dinning-room were
thrown open TO that part OF the public
having cards Of admission. The master Of
ceremonies on this occasion was Mr..
Latimer, the auctoneer. The assemblago
was impcled partly by curiosity and
partly from desire TO purchase something
that once did service for the British Min.
lister. A large number Of Washington
society people, and people who want
something English, you know" paid
high prices for china. At first there was
n crowd, then there was rush. The sale
bugun promptly Mt IL o'clock. At
that hour IL was almost impossible to get
into the front door OF the building, and
the rooms were so packed that II was
impossible 90 move. The auctioneer was
in the immense ballroom, and the china
aud glassware were on tables against the
wall. Hundreds Of people could not get
near enough TO see what was being sold,
but there were plenty OF buyers who did
not seem 10 caro- especially what they
bought, and pretty good prices appeared
to be bid. Even three old china COW
ers, the dishes TO which had been
broken OF lost, were bid for quite actively.
Many people will show their regard for
Lord Sackyille by their collection of me-
mcntocs. Some who did notcare especially
for glasses. water bottles, decanters or
china.ware, waited in the dining-room,
where there were some valuable and at
tractivo paintings, ombroideries, bric-a-
brnc etc. A very attractive catalogue
was presented for their consideration.
Among the items were silk court
dress. =" finely embroidered, worn during
the time Of Louis XVI, some antique
brocado Of the time Of Louis XIV, and
some dress goods, old and new.

Conquering a Lasting Pence.

Skobelef met, during one of his travelstn
the Danubian region, with an English Quaker
lady, who had daughter married in some
town where he was quartered. and who used
to lecture him on the sinfulneSs Of war.
Her remonstrances, indeed, made consider
able impression upon him, and he felt much
admiration for her fidelity 10 Christian prin-
ciple. Hence he derived high esteem fer
Quakeresses, whom he pronounced most
worshipful." He liked old American ladies
better than young ones, but his special aver
sion was "the staring, stuck up British pear
ess. who clipped her words and was half
choked by her RS"
He was not a stranger to the existence and
aims of Peace society. Once, in a converse
ton with an English journalist, he said:
you must not publish this or / shall be
called barbarian by the Peace society; but
hold it is a principle in Asia that the dura-
ton Of peace is in direct proportion to the
slaughter you infiict upon the enemy. The
harder you hit them, the longer they will
be quiet afterwards We killed nearly 20, 900
Turkomans at GeoA Tepe Duringfthe pur-
suit, after the assault, We killed 5000 Of both
sexes. had them counted The survivors
will not soon forget the lesson"
Such words and such deeds show, afresh,
the horrible influences Of war, and its tend
ency to brutalizs all men, even those in
whom, as m Skobeletf, there may have been
manifest measure of sincere appreciation
of the things which pertain to humanity and

Her beauty grew, men sought to WOO
And win the Maynard little witch.
She tossed her head, and proudly said:

Years came and went on riches bent,
She scorned the true hearts at her feet,
Her heart was steeled; she would not yield,
The dream of wealth was all too sweet.

And still her maiden hand was free.
She hung her head at last and said:

KILLED ON 4HE TRACK.
A Wegee Coal Miner Struck BY
a Train at Glendale,
WITH SUDDEN FATAL RESULT.
The Sad Enects of carelessncss in
Sitting too Close to Passing
Train-The Body Brought
to this City.

Last evening about six o'clock, as the
Baltimore & ohio's Cumberland &C.
commodation train from the East
was passing the little station Of
Glendale, just below Benwood, the
engine struck a man named Monroe
Osborne, coal miner living at Wegee,
on the Ohio side of the river, and he was
so severity hurt that he died almost at
once. Osborne is a coal miner, aged
about 30. He was sitting on the platform
in such q manner that the passing train
could not escape him. His remains were
taken up and placed on the train and
brought to this city, where the body was
given into the care OF an undertaken and
prepared for burial. II will be sent
down to his home this morning.
Squire Schultze, County Coroner, held
an inquest on the body after its arrival
here, and found in accordance with the
above facts. The name given the Coro'
ner Us that OF the deceased was Wilson
Monroe, though parties who claimed to
know him said his name was Osborne.
William Dufiey was engineer and
Capt. Steve Riley conductor OF the nc.
commodation. Duffey says as he came
around the bend just beyond Glendale
he saw Osborne sitting onthe edge Of the
platform, STOPPING over in such u way
that the engine must strike him on the
head II he remained in that position
The distance was too short to stop the
train, and Osborne paid no attention to
repeated warning whistles.
The engine struck him on the head,
crushing his skull and throwing him
some distance. He never spoke after he
was struck. There was q bottle Of liquor
in his pocket, from which, and his pecu-
liar behavior, it is inferred that he was
stupeiied by whisky at the time. No
blame was attached to the engineer in
the matter.
