Death to Treachery.

The news of the murder in Africa Of Ma
jor Barttelot, the leader of the expedition in
search of Henry NJ. Stanley, has given
rise to speculation regarding the fate of the
great explorer himself. The London news
papers are unanimously of the opinion that
Major Barttelot was betrayed by Tippoo lib,
WHO organized the native portion of the ex-
petition, and the question is asked, why
may not Stanley have been also the victim
Of his treachery? Nyangwe, the home of
Tippoo lib, is 800 miles distant from Stanley
Falls
dispatch from st. Paul de Loanda states
that Major Barttelot was shot on July 10 by
his Manyem c,rriers. The head Arab and
his men thereupon ran off to Stanley Falls.

with Tippoo lib for the organization of an

All on Account of a Shirt.

Quite commotion was raised on
Third street yesterday. A nicely
dressed gent walking down the street
began suddenly to snap, snarl and
grumble like one in a fit, and at the
same time to pull and haul at his throat
as if in great pain or suffocation. When
directly in front of Goyer Bros fur
nishing store, 137 East Third street,
different look came into his eyes. Push
ing the door open, he entered the store,
and, Selling the collar of his shirt with
both hands, he tore it entirely from his
body, and as he laid the tattered frag-
mentS before the astoniShed clerk,
shouted: ''In heavens name, give me
a shirt that will fit me at the neck. I've
suffered thousand deaths with this in
fernal homemade torturing machinev'
When he emerged from the store, a
happy, cOntented look was on his face,
for he had on a shirt that fitted his
form. Goyer Bros. give a perfect fit
every time, and have an elegant stock
TO select from. Not only do they deal
In perfect-itting shirts, but they make

these gentlemen will satisfy any one
that their great reputation has been
honestly earned.

lace and collars alike wilt in July like

novelty of all things not old. Sounds
queer to talk of putting such yoke
about ones neck voluntarily, does it
not? but look second time and see.
The steel lace has meshes as soft. a
pattern as intricate and delicately
woven, thread as fine and details of
every sort as perfect as if done in silk
1t is light and cObwebby in texture, too,

OPERA IN COURT.
"A Decision Against the Manager
of the Boston Ideals.

Judge Kelly has rendered decision
in the case of Oscar We'll against w. II.
Foster, giving plaintiff judgment for
S170 with per cent interest from last
December. We'll claimed that he owned
the copyright for the adaptation from
the French Of the opera, 1.-THE Daugh-
ter of the Regiment" and that he made
contract with Foster whereby the lat
ter agreed to pay him $40 for every per-
Torrance of the opera by the Boston
Ideals. Foster was to pay altogether
$500, of which 5000 was to be paid
down as soon as the libretto was ready.
In his deposition in answer to the COM
plant, Manager Foster says:
'ln making this contract, 1 never in
timated TO the plaintiff that he was to
make his version with view of bring
ing the title role within the capacity of
the prima donna of said company. nor
was the plaintiff to transpose any of
the composers music for the title role
of The Daughter of the Regiment"
every note of said role being easily
within the capacity of the prima donna
of the Boston Ideal Opera company.
In its original form ''The Daughter of
the Regiment is two-act opera, and
the contract with the plaintiff was that
he should change it into an opera of
three acts, making such musical
alterations and interpretations as he
might deem advisable, it being
stipulated, however. in answer to the
demands of Henry G. Barnabee. who
has an equal interest with me in the
profits of the company, that the plaintiff
must inject into some one act of the
opera a scene in which one of my
female chorus singers, and male
member of the cast should have
the stage to themselves to indulge
in some smart dialogue and mutual os-
culation. For this work the plaintiff
was to receive $500, one-half down and
the remainder in royalties of $40 for
every nprfOrmance -

st. Paul was visited by series of Sc
we're thunder storms yesterday after
noon and last night. The first one broke
over the city at 6 o'clock. The black
and grey clouds produced almost total
darkness, while each vivid flash Of light
ming was followed by startling pealS of
thunder. No damage was reported as
occurring in the city, but colored
man was killed on the bank of
the river about four miles south
of st. Paul. The details of the
being brought to the city by mute.
The latter reported to the police by
signs that he and the colored man,
whose name he was unable to give,
were standing quite close together
when lightning struck his companion,
killing him instantly. The man lived
i'll West st. Paul, but his body was left
at house near which he was killed.
The effects of the storm were most
severely felt on the west side of the
river, where two houses were struck,
considerable damage being done, and
two young men, for the time being,
placed in jeopardy of their lives. The
residence of Gus Swanson, GIG Dexter
street, sustained the most damage, and
in it the personal injuries occurred.
The electric fluid seems to have first
struck the chimney, which was knocked
to pieces, carrying away a part
of the roof. Passing down the
chimney. the current passed into
a bed room, where it played
some strange freaks with the walls and
working away the flooring under bed.
Carrying devastation with it the cleo
tricity entered the kitchen by way of
the staircase and gained the open air
once more. William Swanson, who was
i'll one Of the bedrooms, was knocked
headlong to the floor and completely
paralyZed. Charles johnson, who was
in the kitchen with the rest of the fam
lily, was likewise struck, but his inju-
ries were not of serious character,
and late in the evening he was progress
ing favorably toward recovery. Swan
son, however, was confined to his
bed, but DR.. Ancker, who is
in attendance, states that the I'M
fortunate man will be brought
round within few days. The second
house damaged during the storm was
that of Thomas Birch, of al Dearborn
street. Here the chimney and roof were
lifted, and fantastic streakS made about
the residence, but no personal injury
done beyond severely shaking Mr.. Birch
and his family. A rumor was current
during the evening that two men had
been killed instantly by lightning at
West st. Paul, but Lieut.. Rolleau re-
ported it to be unfounded.
