Changes Being Made In Turner
HalI--The New Company.
A great change has taken place in the
architecture of old Turner hall during
the past week. where work has been go
ing on night and day. The old fiat floor
has disappeared and the interior now
presents the aspect of a modern thea
forum, with graduated floors, balcony
and stage. Everything points toward a
successful opening of the house on June
1. although delays are possible. Mama
ger Il ilSOn. now in New York. reports
that the company is all engaged and
now rehearsing the opening attraction,
which will be the recent New York sue

Among the comedians and all-around
actors is Herbert Ayling. He is host

ABATING MATTERS.

The Mississippi River Is Falling
Rapidly, and No Danger Is
Feared.
The river began to fall rapidly yester-
day, and is already below the danger
point. In the twenty-four hours ending
at noon the water had receded two-tenths
of foot, leaving it 1879 above low water
mark. 1t continued to diminish during
the afternoon and night, and there is
very little chance for another rise.
The barometer is still unsettled but
other indications are that there will be
very little, if any, more rain. The Their
moneter at the signal office registered
only 20 deg. early yesterday morning, 5
deg. below the freezing point. At noon
the mercury stood at 81 deg, and fiuctu-
ated very little during the day.

THE CORNER STONE
OF the New Jewish Synagogue to
Be Laid To-Day.

The corner stone of the new syna-
gogue of the Congregation of the Sons
of Jacob will be laid at $3.50 o'clock this
afternoon. The site of the structure is
on College avenue. near Wabasha street.
Rev. Rabbi Henry Iliowizi will be pres
ent and make brief remarks. The pro
posed building will be of brick and
stone, and with the ground on which it
will stand the cost will be S35, 900. 1t
is thought that the synagogue, when
completed, will be as fine as any IN the
country. Rev. NJ. GrodSky has had
good success in securing funds and the
amount necessary to carry on building
operations is in the treasury.

Street Fakirs.

Almost daily there may be seen upon our
streets at some public corner, or in some
grocery store whose accommodating owner
has made room for him, one Of these anus
ing street fakirs, with an open-mouthed
crowd about him, attracted by his gllb-told
stories or by his sleight- of-hand perform
ances, which are given preliminary TO an
attempt to sell some quack medicine or
other patent humbug. Some OF these Eel
lows will chew cotton and breathe flame
until their mouths appear verltable Nesu-
viuses in full eruption, and then sell a tooth
wash that will make the blacklist teeth
nearly white, and before your eyes will
prove it's efficacy upon the lncsors OF any
Offering gamin. Others will make a stump
sneech upon any of the live topics of the
day. Introductory to the sale OF another
wash that will render all metal like bur
nished gold There is also the other faklr
who visits the grocery store and with his
samples of baking powder and his httle OIL
stove will amuse the grocery clerks ana tho
servant girls with his scientific gable and
his wonderful experiments. But the per
formances of the baking powder faklr are
of the same Elusive character Us those OF

A Reform IN Envelopes.
From the 81. Louis Globe Demo crat

Altogether the decentcst reform is that
which puts the gum on the lower part of an
envelope instead OF on the flap, so that tho
tongue In moistening does not touch the
mucilage. IL has been the abomination Of
correspondence that we must rub our
tongues over a mixture surely not sweet or
clearly, and possibly very nasty or even
dangerous. With the change specified tho
act Of sealing is quite as easy ard quite as
perfect in result. Wo owe tho idea to n
Yankee, although the manufacture Is car
ried on in England. The only wonder is
that everybody didn't think OF the same
thing sooner. But as some one said Of smart
stories. they never occurred 10 him I'LL just
after some one else had told them then
they were az simple as could be. This i'm
proyemeBt would probably have been
thought OF sooner had 10 not been 20 natural
aud easy.

FASHION IN SUICIDES.
People Follow 1t as They Do Styles in
Dress.
From the Philadelphia Press

From the Philadelphia Press.
Suicides are on the increase, and unless
some very rigid means of preventing them
shall be adopted the inevitable result in fut-
ure years is something fearful to contem-
plate" said Coroner Ashbridge yesterday,
in discussing the subject of self-destruction.
Every report upon this subject that has
come under my observation within the past
few years has shown an increase in figures,
and every once in awhile some new method
of self-destruction is invented by persons
who, tired of battling the world for means
of subsistence, or weighed down in spirit by
some overwhelming loss, seek death bv their
own hands as a relief from mental torture. 4"
ITO what means, as a rule, do suicides re-
sort in taking their hvesf'
well, there are a multiplicity OF ways,
the most common, Of course, being by hang
ing and shooting. But there is anoth-
er method that is becoming extremely COM
mon (here the coroner looked very seriousl,
and that is by taking trough on rats" 1t
, is surprising that some effective means for
restricting the sale of that deadly stuff is
not adopted, because half the people killing
themselves nowadays are making use of 1t,
probably because it is cheap and can be pur-
chased without any difficulty 1t seems to
be staple article in all the stores, both m
y
cheap. If person should go into a store
and ask for plain arsenic, the probability is
that he would not get it until the clerk
should feel pretty well satisfied with regard
to the uses 1t was intended make of it. But
if person ask for trough on rats, he would
get it without the least hesitation, notwith-
standing the fact that it contains fully SO
per cent. of arsenic, the ingredients
forming the other 8 per cent.
being perfectly harmless. A small
box Of the stuff can be bought for 10 cents,
and in it there is enough poison to kill 240
persons. The larger boxes have just dou-
BILE the capacity for killing. 1t is a sure
means of suicide, and cases where people
have been saved from its fatal effects are
isolated indeed. Person who attempt to
bring their earthly careers to a sudden ter
mination by using the ordinary bug pow
ders almost always get baked, for a ma
jority of them are perfectly harmless. even
to insects, as | have proved to my own
satisfaction by experiments.

Death of a Musician Betrothed to
an Austin Lady.

The following is an extract from a
notice and comments in the Boston Home
Journal, of the 18th inst:
"The death of Mr.. A. D. Turner, the
pianist and composer, occurred last Sun
day in st. Adams, Me. While not unex-
pected, his death has been felt as seldom
is felt, not alone by very many friends,
but by many musicians who simply know
him by his life work. All who knew him
will testify to his exceptional manhood.
His was not the manhood that the COM
mon parlance makes out to be a very
common thing that barely transcends
the legal complement of years. His was
the better kind of manhood. In it was
engraved generous and whole-souled ma
ture. Impurity and all unworthy thoughts
were as completely foreign to it as were
cant and insincerity. In music he earned
his position by remarkable amount of
patience and self-sacriicing toll. IL was
the mistake of his life that he conceived

Queer Old Case.

The commission of appeals court yes
terday was engaged with the old, but
rather peculiar case of Dimmitt VS.. Rob
bins. The parties had some land trans
action several years ago, ending in a
proposition to exchange some properly
in Coryell county for land in Williamson
county. On their way to Coryell they
camped out one night, when some rob-
bers came upon them, and, meeting Mr..
Dimmitt first, demanded $4,000 or his
life. Mr.. Robbins, who had his money
concealed in camp, compromised the
matter by letting the robbers have 81 800,
an amount which Dimmitt claimed Rob-
bins owed him, but which Robbins con-
tended was simply an advance to Dimmitt
to save him from the robbers. 1t was
even set up in the pleadings on one side
that the robbery was made up job with
the robbers to Offset the Robbins debt,
and on the other to get the money for it
from Robbins. At all events Dimmitt
refused to pay Robbins, who consequently
sued him and got judgment, from which
Dimmitt appealed, contendirg that indie
pendent of his claim against Robbins the
robbery was q vi ct arms affair, for the
consequences of which he should not be
held responsible any more than Robbins.
Among the many lawyers in the case are
Judge Terrell for Dimmitt, and Colonel
Walton for Robbins.
