WELCOMED BY NEW WORKERS.
Private Citizen Cleveland and Party Ar
rive at the Metropolis.

| NEW YORK, March 6.-Grover Cleveland
entered this city for the first time in four
| years as private citizen. He and his
! party came by way of the Baltimore &
| Ohio road. The special train arrived at
the new depot of the Central Railroad of
New Jersey at 6 o'clock p. N. The ex-
presidents modesty was responsible for
the lateness of the arrival. 1t was desired
to avoid crowds at the depot. The train
was brought along promptly as far as
Bergen Point at 4;40 p. M, and should
have arrived at the Jersey City central de-
pot at 4:57, but according to a desire of the
distinguished passenger the train was side
! tracked at Bergen Point, six miles from
the depot at this end of the line. The sta
tion master at Bergen Point telegraphed
the superintendent of the Jersey Central
at the time that the train would be held
there and arrive at Jersey City at O'Clock.
The effort to avoid a crowd went amiss,
however. There were early on hand five
carriages and two trucks from Victory ho-
tel to convey the party and baggage to that
hostelry. In addition an eyer-increasing
crowd was there scurrying across the
tracks to meet each incoming train to
catch perhaps glimpse of Mr.. and Mrs.
Cleveland They did not get discouraged,

the train arrived Mr. and Mrs. Cleve-
land alighted from the rear platform of
the third car. Mrs. Cleveland looked
charming as she walked down the plat
form on the arm of her husband. She
wore long coat of red material, pretty,
becoming hat, and carried in
her left hand magnificent
bouquet of roses Cheering and crushing,
the crowd followed down the platform TO
the carriages. Jersey policemen in vain
attempted 60 stay the people. Mrs. Cleve-
land smiled as if pleased by the warm re-
ception. MIR. Cleveland several times
touched his hat. When the two finally en-
tered their carriage and stood waiting the
other members of the party, a man pro-
posed three cheers and tiger for Grover
Cleveland. They were given with a will,
as were three cheers for Mrs Cleveland
Then followed three and tiger for the

a HORRIBLE CASE.

LOUISVILLE, March Con Spruce creek,
near Mt. Sterling, Frank Conkwright,
Jim Holden and Steve Holden, have been
arrested for poisoning Conkwright's fami-
ly of nine children, aged 3 to 10 years.
Conkwright is a widower, and has been
living in unlawful intimacy with the
Holden woman. His children protested
violently and had been beaten for it, with
threats of driving them from home. The
woman and her brother Jim went from
their home TO Conkwright's home to remain
over night. jim Holden slept in the
same bed with Conkwright's 9-year-old
daughter. Late at night she was taken
severe vomiting and died before morning
The other children were also taken sick
and one of them was not at last reports
expected to recover. DIR. Cook, who was
called, detected sufficient signs of poison
ing to cause the arrest. The prisoners are
in Jail at Mt. Sterling. There is much eX-
element over the case and talk of lynch

A PHANTOM TRAIN.
Strange Spectacle Seen In the Rarefied
Air of the Black Hills.

| Air of the Black Hills.
My companion then spoke concerning our
mission to this bleak and barren spot, saws
writer in the Leadville Coli Herald in
/ course Of description of the lonely land
/ scape of the Centennial State About
twelve years ago." he said, ''an old man by
the name of Cearnals was the proprietor Of
jack train with which he used TO bring
| provisions and other commodities into that
mining camp You see beneath you there
This was before the railroads entered tho
Businesses of these mountains, and every
thing was brought by mule teams or by
these jack trains into the camp. The treas
ures which were found in the hills were
carried out the same way
lone time the old man Cearnals did not
arrive IN the camp on time. Twas In the
winter-and the coolest one too ever ex-
experienced in these hills A searching
party was sent out to find him and his train,
as the people who had goods consigned to
him feared that some accident had befallen
him. Near where we are now is where he and
his train were found frozen TO death. And
now each night may be seen the jack train
just as they were, but in the form of specters,
filing along the way to the camp. Get out
and we will go down the trail piece and see
them" We got out of the buggy, and
fastening the horse to a stunted pine we de-
scended the other side of the range on the
road to Alma After most perilous and
tortuous walk of half an hour, on account Of
the slippery condition of the ground,
which was covered with snow, my
companion led me to point near
the old LeadviDe trail, which could
be distinctly seen above US against the side
<ft bO, l.
remarked that it was almost time for them
to appear. After cking the snow from
couple of powders we sat down and in 81
lence awaited developments. Ny compan.
ion would not say a word, but simply pulled
away at cigar, his looks being cast In the
direction of the trail. We waited half an
hour, but 1T seemed week to me, cold
wind having arisen, and l was almost frozen
and was wishing myself at home.
Suddenly my companion clutched me
nervously by the arm and pointed TO the
trail The sight that | saw made each in
dividual hair on my head stand on end, for
there on the trail, coming around shady
angle caused by bowlder,yyas a jack train
of twenty-three animals. They all emitted
IA faint phosphOrescent glow, which made
them appear all the more vivid against the

different articles Of merchant ise, and the
last one which the spectral driver was urg-
ing on with his short goad seemed 10 be
loaded with -four. Every once in a while a.
the train slowly fled along, this last jack
would lean his load against a projecting
rock, Is if resting himself This would
cause the driver to punch it with his short
stick. The weird specters slowly passed
from view around the HILL and, more dead
than alive from fright, we made our way 20
where we had left the horse and buggy.
Ny companion informed me, while on cur
way back TO the city, that this strange sight
could be seen any dark night"

IMPORTANT TO ATHLETES.

James Robinson, the athletic trainer at
Princeton College. Princeton, n. j., says:
Il have found it imperative to have sure
and simple remedies on hand in case of
cuts, bruises, strains, sprains, colds,
rheumatism, ETC. Shortly after entering
upon my profession l discovered such a
remedy in ALLCoCK'S Porous PLAsTERs.
l tried Benson's Capcine and other plas-
tiers, but found them too harsh and irri-
tating. ALLCoCK's Porous PLASTERS give
almost Instantaneous relief, and their
strengthening power is remarkable. In
cases Of weak back put two plasters on the
small of the back and in short time you
will be capable of quite severe exercise.
In sprint" and distance" races and
jumping, the muscles or tendons in the
legs and feet sometimes weaken. This
can invariably be relieved by cutting the
plaster in narrow strips, so as to give free
motion, and applying on muscles af-

HE BELIEVED HIM INNOCENT.

| CHICAGO, March 6.-An unusual incident
occurred today in the Langley avenue
Methodist church at the funeral of New
ton Watt, the brakeman who died in the
Joliet prison serving a life sentence fol
Reck Island train robbery and for the
murder of Express Messenger Kellogg
Nichols. The Rev. J. NJ. Caldwell stand
ing over the coffin said: eve believed
Newton Watt innocent. His accusers were
almost all professional criminals or pro-
fessional detectives, and I consider the
two terms very nearly synonymous. The
testimony of a score of both kinds would
not shake my conviction in an upright
character. A man who will lie at one time
for any purpose will lie whenever 1t may
suit his convenience"
The speaker related of his own personal
knowledge several experiences with detec-
tlves which gave him additional ground
for his opinion of them. He added, The
reward offered in this case was enough to
| convict any one whom the detectives
might select"
Mr.. Caldwell spoke at considerable
length to the same general effect as quoted
above. The words which caused the
strongest impression on many of his
hearers was the following: "These profess
sional detectives lie to catch person
as they say. They live a lie and are lie,
and will swear a lie to carry a point. A
great many people believe that the detect
I've are necessary evils, but tell you 1t is
never necessary to do evil. and in not many
years from now the public will believe just
what am saying and the professional de-
tective business will be swept from the
face of the earth"
The reward offered after the train rob-
berry was $4,000. The clergyman did not
mention these figures expressly. but
did allude to the $4,000 offered
for Tascott. DR.. Caldwell had
little or no censure for the Tascott reward
as it was for definitely named person of
whose criminal antecedents and probable
connection with the crime opinion was
practically unanimous Those points
which chiefly reused the minister's solemn
protests were the indefinite character of
the train robbery reward offered and the
use of detective evidence when viewed in
the light of Watts good record, religious
tendencies and his deathbed demeanor,
expiring with the words, Il am innocent"

q GREAT .SuCCESS.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The inaugural
committee has achieved an unprecedented
financial success. Not only has enough
money been made from the sale of privi-
leges and of tickets to the ball to defray
all expenses and TO return the $50, 600
guarantee subscribed by public-spirited
citizens, but there will be surplus left of
about So, 900. There were 1000 tickets to
the ball sold, netting s60,000, and it is ex-
pected that the receipts from the sale of
tickets TO the promenade concert held in
the ball room yesterday and from the sale
of souvenir ball tickets will bring the
amount up to $4,000.
