WINoNA, Aug. 10.-Ed Hynes, the
horse thief, who was taken back to
Houston by the officers yesterday,
proves to have been young man very
fertile in expedients. Another of his
little schemes has come to light. When
he reached here he tried to Dor
row S. at the Anderson house, and
on being refused, asked if he could get
iton his watch. Being asked to pro
duce the watch, he went out, and some
time after returned with a watch and
chain worth about $50 On which he got
the SIS. A telegram to Houston proved
that he had no watch when he left
there. Investi G alton shows that when
he left the Anderson house he picked
up an old man, drove him around town
until he got him we'll hlled, and then
quietly distracted the watch.
Arrangements are complete for cele
brating the quarter centennial of the
Winona Normal school at the alumni

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Aug. TO-
Great preparations have been made here
for5the entertainment of the Society of
the Army of the Cumberland, which
holds its next annual reunion in this
city Sept 19, 20 and 81. Notice has al
ready been received from different
brigades and divisions of the Army
of the Cumberland to insure the attend
anee of many thousand of veterans of
the Union army. During the reunion
the Chickamauga Memorial association
is to be organized. This society has for
it's purpose the purchase and preserva-
ton by the government of the Chicka-
manga battlefield and making national
park there. A temporary organization
was last spring effected in Washington,
in which participated great number Of
veterans of the armies of the North and
South. At the meeting there were
present number of senators
and members of congress. The
association has received a charter
from the state of Georgia, which en-
ables them to secure the land embraced
in the field by condemnation. Efforts
are now being made to secure a large
attendance of veterans of the Southern
army. This will be the first organiza-
ton ever attempted of veterans OF both
armies, and it is thought it will do more
than any other movement to cement the
union. There is great enthusiasm in
the movement throughout the South,
and many of the leading men have
given it their hearty Endorsement.

G. l.. Prentice, now dead, who used to
sell tickets at Madison Square Garden
for Barnum'S circus, was one OF the
most reckless gamblers Gotham ever
knew. He made some of the most phe-
nOmenal winnings known to the fra
ternity. and they were always scratch
es"-that is, big sums won from mere
nothing. From ten-cent piece first
placed on roulette wheel and the
winnings taken thence to the faro game,
he won $500. In New York he started
in one night with Is cents. He won
from the first until he had all the white
checks out of the rack. Then he
changed to red, and, getting all of those
before him, he thought ne would try
blue, and finally played chocolate-col-
ored checks at valuation of $3.50 each.
The night wore on, but none of those
present were sleepy. The play was
lively, and Prentice had no one at his
side to distract his attention. He was
gOOd-natured, however, and when the
dealer was shutting the cards or wait
ing for him to place his bets, he cracked
jokes With the spectators. When day
light broke he was ready to cash In
$4,000.
Prentice could never win when he
had money, but was always lucky when
reduced to his last dollar. He earned
al ,ut $4,000 year, and was always
broke at the end of the season. At one
time the sporting men made up purse
to send him to Hot Springs. He stayed
there as long as his money lasted, and
went to New Orleans.
With only 81 to his name he won
60 hn cfo honk tA Now
York. He dropped his money soon
after getting back, and, though it was
the dead of winter, he pawned his over
coat for $40 and lost that. He walked
out of the house and met friend who
asked him to go over to the St. James
and get drink. Knowing his condi-
ton the friend gave him the change out
of a silver dollar. With this rs cents
Prentice went back, and before morning
had won $3.50 and redeemed his over
coat.
Pat Sheedy has made and lost several
fortunes over the faro table. Last fall
he won $4,000 against the New York
banks. When he was running game
in Chicago rival came around with his
bank roll and announced that he had
come up to close up Mi. Sheedy'S place.
He lost $4,000.
Some amusing things happen around
the gambling houses. One of the wait
ers at the Hollywood staked so cents on
the turn of card here two weeks ago.
and inside of three days had aceumula-
ted $500. He was so elated that he
could not contain himself, and. getting
his particular friend in tow, they pro-
ceeded to make bowling SWells
of themselves in the literal sense. They
bought loud clothes and lots of jewelry,
and drank wine until they were full to
the necks. They rushed into the clubs
as if they were millionaires and pushed
their way to the tables in an offensive
manner. They played their money so
reeklessly that an old gray-headed
lookout said to them: You'd bet
ter hold out enough money to buy
stack of aprons with; you'll need 'em
soon."
They wish they had taken his advice,
as their money soon vanished, and now
they are at work again for SIS week
and their hoard

MAHAFFY'S MOUTHINGS.
A Rene gade Celt Denounces Irish
Autonomy.

CHAUTAUoUA, N. Y, Aug. 10.-Prof.
j. P. Mabaffy, of Dublin, lectured this
morning on the "Irish Question" He
said that he was not Tory; that he had
voted with the Liberal party until it
was disrupted by Mr.. Gladstone, and
was now a Liberal Unionist. The great
strength of the home rule cause in Ire
land lays, he said, in the money that
country receives from the United
States. He classed the interference of
England in behalf of the South
ern states during our civil war
as a grave instance of international
discourtesy and stated that the SYM
pathy and money we send to ireland is
in the same way breach of information
al courtesy. He said the home-rule
movement is not national in any real
sense, but an unholy alliance of paid
agitatorS and RomiSh priests; that it
was not safe to give constitutional liber-
ties while Roman Catholic majority
will distOrt them into an oppression of
the Protestants. The information we
receive in this country is poisoned and
one-sided. Agitators always describe
Ireland as it existed twenty years ago.
The tenantry is better protected by law
in that country than in this.

HORRORS OF NAL DE MER.
President Harrison Too Sea Sick

BAR HARBoR, Me-. Aug. 10.-Presi-
dent Harrison went for a sail to-day, the
guest of Secretary and Mrs. Blaine.
The passenger steamer Sappho, which
usually plies between Mount Desert
ferry and Bar Harbor. had been select

ladies' and gentlemen, who went partly
round the island and into Somes sound

steamer had been away from the
wharf ten minutes, some of them be-
came rather uncomfortable. The after
noon was foggy and the sea choppy, and
the steamer pitched and rolled as if she
We're several days out of port. The
president stood in the pilot house, now
with one companion, and then with
another, while most of the other gov
ernmental people occupied chairs or
setteeS on the deck or lOunged in the
saloon. President Harrison kept his
place in the pilot house, and while he
was not actually sick, the change in his
face showed that he felt the motion of
the boat and did not quite like it.
Meanwhile the Turkish minister took
lounge in the saloon, evidently feeling
pretty badly, and when Walker Blaine
asked if the
INTERNAL RELATIONS OF TURKEY
were entirely peaceful, he rolled over
and with groan said that he hoped so.
Many others aboard the boat showed
symptoms of sea sickness, but the sail
through the rough water lasted less
than an hour and the effects were not
severe. The steamer ran up Somes
sound, stopping to enable Mr.. Blaine to
invite Bishop Doane on board. The in
vitatiOn was declined as the bishop was
awaiting the arrival Of friends. Then
the steamer drew up alongside
which was anchored in the mid
for rope. The two boats were made
fast. and while the boats were lying
together a lunch was served in the main
saloon in true democratic style, the
president sitting on Settee with nap
kin on his knee and a plate in his hand.
The steamer went little further up
the sound, but before returning, when
near SomeSyille, boat was lowered,
and the president, Mrs. Blaine, Mr..
and Mrs. Lodge, Mrs. Patterson and
others took seats in it. They were
rowed to the shore, whence they started
in a buck board for Bar Harbor.
After dinner tonight the president and
the Blaines went to reception which
the Kebo Valley club gave in its club
house in the presidents honor, followed
by refreshments and dancing. Seven
hundred and fifty people were present,
among them being Secretary Tracy
and Mrs. Wilmerding, his daughter.
President Harrison went with the
Blaine party, which also included Sen
ator and Mrs. Hale. President Ogden
Codmon presented him to the people,
and he remained there about an hour.

Greedy Postmasters Headed Off
by Shrewd Official.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-First Comp
troller Matthews has given an opinion
that the increased rate of compensation
of third-class postmasters, under the act
of March 8, 1888, readjusting the sala-
ries of postmasters, does not commence
until their commissions are issued by
the president and they have taken the
oath of office. 1t was claimed by some
of the postmasters that the increased
compensation began from the date of
the order by the postmaster general
changing the offices to third class. A
great many officials and a large amount
of money are affected by this decision.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Assistant
Secretary Bachelor, of the treasury
department, had an interview with AS
sistant Postmaster General Clarkson at
the postof1ice department to-day in re-
gard to the trouble the recent order sus
pending the telegraph contract is caus-
ing the treasury department. Secre-
tary Bachelor explained that the propo-
sition to send all bills " Collect" would
not serve, if carried out, to relieve the
treasury department from its embarrass-
ment. 1t would do, he said, in instances
where kilograms were received at the
treasury department., but the difficulty
arose from the sending OF messages be-
tween officers of the department not
stationed at Washington. No decision
was reached, and it was decided to
await the return of the postmaster gen
eral before taking action in the matter.

Buried Cities.
REMARKABLE DISCOVERIES IN THE STATE
OF CHIAPAs, MEXICO.


OF CHIAPAs, MEXICO.
CITY OF MEXICO, Aug. 5.-Recently re-
turned explorers from the state Of Chiapas
confirm and add to the remarkable reports
concerning important arch geological dis
coveries. A fiue, broad, paved road, built
by prehistoric inhabitants, has been traced
from Tonala down into Guatemala, and
thence i'll curve mp again into Mexico,
terminating at Palenque. All along this
road are still to be seen the remains Of
ruined cities, aud careful estimate of the
population of these places is about sc, 000,-
900.
On that part of the road near Palenque
the ruins are of great magnitude. Houses
four and often five stories high have been
found in the depth of the forest. Many of
these houses are pyramidal in form, and SO
covered are some of them with vegetable
mold that large trees are growing from the
roofs. In some Of the houses great employ
ment has been made of stone beams of tire.
mendous weight, and the architecture ipdi-
Gates high degree of scientific attain
ments. In some houses visited bronze
lamps have been discovered, and the inteli-
or and exterior mural decorations of the
more important houses consist of paueIings
|
most life size, two types of men and women
being represented, seine plainly Egyptian
and others gen~iae Africans. In front OF
one of tie houses the explorers found four
teen sculptures Of gods with folded arms
The work Of exploration was one of ex
IRENE difficulty, owing 10 the density oi
the forest and the un1iliuguess of the H.
dams to enter the ancient edifces, they
averring that the buildings were inhabited
by spirits.
Another discovery was that an enormous
paved road extends from Palenque across
| Yucatan to the island of Cozumet, and is
continued on the island. The explorers
went to Chiapas on private business, but
incidentally became interested in the work
of exploring the ruins, and they suggest
that the government fit out an expedition
to make complete map of this wonderful
ly interesting region, regarding which little
comparatively is known, even after SO many
years siace the white me- became aware of
its existence. Palepque explorers assert
that they have discovered 10 the edifices be-
fore mentioned, examples of a perfect arch.
One explorer is a scientifically trained man
who has recently arrived from Iudia and
by his account the region from Chiapas to
Yucatan must have been the seat Of a
| densely populous nation.
