DECLINES TO RENDER A BILL.
Dr. Pepper Wants Nothing for Attendance
 Upon Gen. Sheri ian.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 10 -Dr. William Pepper, who as consulting physician attended the late Gen. Sheridan during his last illness, has beel asked by Col. Sheridan to render a bill for his professional services In reply to this request Dr. Pepper, under datesof Oct. 3, sent the following to Col Sheridan:
 'I am ill receipt of your note of Sept. 2s requesting me to forward my acconnt for professional services rendered in consultation to the late Gen. Sheridan. You must permit me to say that desire these services to be regarded only as an expression of that deep and lasting obligation which I, in common with all others, owed to him. In view of the extremely limited pecuniary resources of his family it would be obviously impossible tC render an accounS for these services such as would be proper under other circumstances.

1addening to the prsll Master.

Nothing in the world makes an army officer, whether regular or militia, so utterly blind mad as to have man scuR his feet while drilling or marching. Almost tho frn& thing which is insisted upon as the essential element of a soldier is that he shall march erectly, square to the front, and lift his fse9 clean and clear from the ground. Such c thing as clicking the heels or scufang the fsse Is so utterly repugnant to the ear of well drilled officer that it makes the tsmadn come quicker than the sight of strange dog will raise the hair on cats back Chicago Herald.

 A letter from Surgeon General Hamilton in reference to the intended Immigration of this city is exciting great interest The gov ernment proposes to take charge of the work, and will pay for all furniture, clothing, etc., which it may be found necessary to destroy. Houses specially adapted for the work of flu migation will be built by the government. Mattresses and pillows are to be burned, as it is believed that no amount of boiling and baking will thoroughly disinfect them. Dr. Hamilton suggests the closing of houses which do not contain properly built closets. house inspection is to be begun to-day as soon as possible and all condemned articles branded so that the work of destruction can go or without interruption as soon as the disin fecting establishments are ready
 Dr. Partijean who has visited St. Angus tine, says there Is no yellow fever there. Ali Fernandina there had been twenty-three new cases, but they do not appear to be of z malignant type.

FRATERNAL SYMPATHY.
All Newspapers Requested to Contribute
 to an Edward Martin Fund.

All Newspapers Requested to Contribute
 to Edward Martin Fund.
 SAVANNAH, Ga, Oct 1O-At meeting at which every department of the daily and weekly press of this city was represented, it was resolved to raise fund by appealing to the press of the country for the family of the late managing editor of The Jacksonville Times-Union, Edward Martin, who died of yellow fever Sunday. For several years MT. Martin was connected with the press of Sa- vannah. He was a practical printer, and for sixteen years was an active worker on the daily and weekly papers of the south. Owing to the disorganization of his staff by fever, the work of making up the dispatches for the two press associations devolved largely on him, thus in a great measure the press of the country and the reading public were indebted to him for the daily news ot the epidemic He left large family unpro vided for.
 Contributions from all departments of the newspapers are requested, payable to J. H. Estill, chairman of the Edward Martin me- morial fund committee, Savannah, Ga. Over S200 was raised last night.

Bubear's machine caught in some way and suddenly slackened its speed, causing Conley to run into him with some force. No damage was done with the exception of broken spoke.
 Squirting just before p. m. grew fast and furious between Hamm, Gaudaur, Conley and Lee, who had been racing all day, and the 5000 people present became excited. Their broad backs heaved as the rowers bent to their work, and the knotted muscles stood out like deformities as they propelled the gliding machines over the planking. Hamm finally succeeded in passing all his competi- tors, when they took a rest for dinner, and soon after Hamm followed their example. Nearly all the rowers are tired and afflicted with very sore hands.

WALES WANTS HOME RULE.

The Radical Element Commits Repre-
 sentative Convention to a Stand for
 Welsh Autonomy-WhitecIap Horror
 LONDON, Oct 10.-Mr John Morley had intended to leave Newtown, Wales, after his speech Monday, but remained over ill order to mediate in the squabbtes which were a prominent feature in the Liberal convention held there yesterday. His efforts were only partially successful, however, as the radlca element in the convention secured the passage of motions committing the conference to tho support of Welsh autonomy, church and land reforms, and the creation of a parliamentary party on the lines of the National party of Ireland. These things were not precisely what MT. Morley and his followers wished to have done just at this time, as the former. speech Monday night indicated, but the senti ment in favor of them was too strong to be outvoted
 The newspapers continue to publish column after column of thin stuff about the White. chapel murders, but no new theories are ad- vanced, nor are there any signs that the old ones have any value. There is no abatement of popular interest and excitement, and everything points to a revival of the slum ming craze of 1883 as the outgrowth of tho recent tr mendous influx of visitors to the east end districts. Already the public are asked to subscribe to a fund for the establish ment of an immense laundry in which to provide work for Magdalens, to establish lodging houses for street boys and girls, and ill other ways to minimize the appalling measure of vice in the lower quarters of tho metropolis.

Editor Register:
The writer has had the pleasure OF
hearing some of the speeches of E. II
Funston during the present campaign.
He is certainly making splendid
canvass of this Second Congressional
District. His speeches reach the hearts
of the people. His arguments are clear
earnest and elegant, and his evident
sincerity and candor compel admira.
ton no less than his eminent ability as
a speaker. He is, as the farmer should
be, broad in his comprehension. and
best of all, he is on the right side ev-
cry time.
When our noble D. c. Haskell was
taken from US, heard Bourbon Coun.
ty republicans say. they feared that it
would be hard TO find a man who
would worthily succeed him. But
those fears have all vanished and we
are proud of the record of our present
Congressman.
Look out for a big republican major
ity in Bourbon County this fall.
Respectfully,

THE EVEN SECTIONS.
Good News From The Circuit Court
The Demurrer of Defend ants
Sustained.
The Land Troubles In Allen County
Nearing Their End.

A dispatch from Mr.. Keplinger to
Benton & Scott Wednesday evening
reads as follows:
THE demurrer in the Circuit Court land
case sustained toto.''
This is undoubtedly the most vel.
come and important announcement
that could possibly be made to oul
people at this time, for the reason that
it is altogether more than probable
that it marks the end of this terrible
and disastrous land controversy in
Allen county. The matter stands this
way: To the bill filed by the United
States asking for the cancellation OF
the patents of the even section railroad
lands, the defendants 1.-THE NJ. K. & T.
Ry. Co. and the owners of the land
under that company filed q demurrer
on the ground that the bill did moi
state grounds for a cause of action
claiming that all the vital points were
decided in the odd section case in the
United States Supreme Court. The
plaintiff then amended the bill and
the defendants again demurred on the
same ground. This demurrer is now
sustained; and the fact that Judge
Brewer, who has heretofore inclined te
the settlers.side of this controversy,
