A Purely Personal Visit.

BERLIN, Oct. 12.-Emperor William
went to the Russian embassy at 7
o'clock this morning and met the Gar
al 7:15. Their majesties started for
Hubertustock, where the day will be
devoted to hunting. The Tagblatt
says: 1.-THE short speech made by the
Gar at the banquet at the Schloss
last evening, shows he is determined
to preserve a free hand" The Vos-
sische Zeitung says: Everything in
dicates that the Czar's visit to the
Emperor is a purely personal matter
and is essentially independent of po-
litical matters"
The Emperor and his imperial visi-
tor enjoyed good days sport in the
forest. Both displayed skill and
craftsmanship, killing a number of
red and fallow deer. Shortly after
dinner they took luncheon in the open
air, guarded by cuirasseurs. After
enjoying their repast, they resumed
their shooting. They returned to
Berlin this evening.

THEIR GRAND OBJECT.

New Charter to be Organized--Or-
der of the Good Samaritan, Etc.
The Eastern Star, the order which
has just held their State Grand Lodge
in this city, was organized 40 years
ago by Robert Morriss. Only the
mothers, wives, daughters or sisters
of Masons in good standing are eligi-
BILE for this decree. Their object is to
assist their brother Masons in their
work of charity and benevolence, and
in caring for the sick.
The order is growing rapidly. More
so in the northern part of the United
States, than in the southern portion,
but it is making very good progress
in the south. The General Grand
Chapter meets annually in Indianap-
oils, Indiana, having held a meeting
this year in September. Mrs. Lizzie
Hadley, Grand Matron for the order
in this state, is the grand representa-
tive to this body, which meets again
next September. In San Antonio,
Adah chapter represents this order,
and has a membership of 81, COM
posed of Masons and their wives,
mothers, etc. Adah chapter was Or
ganized June s, 1887 by Mrs. Hadley.
This lady Will leave in about two
weeks, to organize chapter in Flores
vile, one in Beeville, one in Flatonio,
and one in Houston.
So closely allied to Masonry is the
Eastern Star that chapter cannot
be held unless Master Mason attends
as adviser, or patron. Another and
closer order, however, is the Good
Samaritan degree. A lodge has re-
Gently been organized in this city, be-
ginning with a membership of nine.
This degeee only includes the wives
and widows of Chapter masons. In
this degree High Priest attends as
adviser. Their object is also to assist
Masons in their work.

The New Cronin Sensation.

CHICAGO, October 12.-Local papers
indulge in much speculation ON the
latest mystery in the Cronin case,
but the authorities seem to have sue
'ceeded in keeping to themselves the
reason for the unexpected adjourn
ment of the court yesterday and the
all-night session in the states attor-
ney's private office, where dozen
persons brought in by officers were
examined. 1t is said that steno-
grapher formerly employed by the
states attorney has suddenly disap-
peared from the city, and at the same
time the states attorney discovered
that large portion Of evidence and
dispositions in the Cronin case bad
been distracted from his Office hence
the unusual excitement yesterday.
1t was asserted that last nights
conference and examination of the
mysterious witnesses was for the pur-
pose of retaking the dispositions, but
the story is not corroborated, except
that the stenOgrapher is missing.
His friends, however, assert he will
turn up all right in few days.
The gossip about an attempt to
"fix" the eight jurors already sworn
in has been set at rest by Judge Nc
Connell, who says the integrity of the
men is unquestioned and that the in
vestigation had no reference to them.
The Tribune says: "a startling
rumor was current in the early hours
this morning, that the official records
of the Cronin case had been stolen !;
the record includes copy of the pro-
ceedings before the coroner's jury the
sworn affidavit of witnesses before the
grand jury, portions of hair, blood,
clothes, cotton-batting and other tan
gible evidence of the crime, found in
the catch basin of the the Carlson cot
tage, and the bloody trunk"

THE lINGROWING NAIL

A Simple Way of Checking Its In
Wardness with Chloride of Iron
NJ. A. l.. says: "What shall do to
cure an lngrowing nail? The CHR
opodists of this city have failed to
give me any relief" DIR. Hoffman, a
German surgeon, has succeeded in
remedying this troublesome evil by
the use of chloride of iron. Here is
his method as given by him: 1.-THE
entire limb is first thoroughly cleans
ed, disinfected with sublimate solu-
ton. The nail is then slightly elevat-
ed and liquor Terra chloridi applied to
the affected part. This is repeated
on the second or third day. After a
few days, or, should supperaton occur,
some what earlier, the hardened
crust covering the granulation,
and the bleeding checked by an
application of the iron solution.
Three or four days later the crust
is again removed, and this procedure
is repeated until the prominent skin
folds have been completely leveled
The nail is rendered soft and plable
by the iron solution, and if little
care is taken may be eXclsed without
pain with scissors or dull-edged
knife. To prevent occurrences fine
plates of cork are inserted beneath
the nail. New York Fashion Bazaar
