PASTOR KRANTZ RECEIVED.

A Formal Reception in Centenary
Church's Lecture Room.
The Rev. John Krantz, Jr., the new
pastor of the Centenary Church, and his
family, were rendered a formal reception
in the lecture room of the church last
evening by the members and friends of
his congregation. DR.. Kyle was master
of ceremonies An elaborate programme of
singing and defamation was furnished by
young ladies and gentlemen connected
with the church, and Prof. Miner, tum-
bleronicon and bell soloist, rendered sew
eral airs of sweet music. All acquitted
themselves handsomely. The new dominic
concluded the entertainment by making a
few felicitous and appropriate remarks
and telling some good stories, after which
he and his family were submitted to the
hand-shaking process and received with
the genuine enthusiasm of Jersey Chris
tianity. The Centenary is the youngest
of the Methodist Episcopal churches, but
it is full of life and buoyancy.
Mr. Krantz was originally from Wis
consin He is an agreeable looking gen.
tleman, of medium stature, full, round,
beardless face, light compleXioned, and
blue eyes, and full of the vitality which
characterizes the men of Western birth.
He is only thirty-six years old, and prom
ises to become very popular with his con-
gregation.

A THIRTEEN THAT WAS LUCKY.
Noah Taylor's Old Hotel Gig Reappears
in Both Lotteries.

Moan Iaylor'S Old Hotel Gig Reappears
in Both Lotteries.
"By jimminy p exclaimed The. Ding
Ter, glancing over the slip of the draw
ing that decided the fate of Wednesdays
policy gamblers, when it was handed to
him Wednesday evening, Damned if
there isn't Noah Taylor's old gig out in
the Kentucky"
''Yes," added one of the hangers-on to
whom his remark had been addressed, 'if
you were bit fly you would see that it's
out on the other side, too"
"By -" exclaimed Dingler, as he ran
his eye down the figures in the other line
80 ''22-32-62 They're all there, too.
This discovery that the numbers had
been drawn in both lotteries at the
Wednesday evening drawing made in
other places than Dingler's, made Noah
Taylor and the gig that built the hotel
that bears his name about the only topic
of talk among the policy players of the
city.
1t is many yeers now since old policy
player Beatty induced his clerk, Noah, to
take one of two tickets he had left of those
that had been sent him for certain draw
ing in the louisiana State lottery. Noah
hadn't the SIS to pay for it, but Beatty
was willing to take it out of his salary in
installments. Taylor looked askance at
the unlucky thirteen" on the
ticket, but took it nevertheless A week
later he learned that the ticket, in spite of
the unlucky thirteen, had drawn the cap
ital prize of $75, 600. He rewarded his
friend Beatty with s., 900 for having forced
the ticket upon him, and with the rest put
up Taylor'S Hotel.

BANDITS HOTLY PURSUED.
Cyclone Bill Believed to Be One of the
Robbers of Paymaster Wham.

Cyclone Bill Believed TO be one OF the
Robbers of Paymaster Wham.
TUCSON, A. t., May II, 1ss9.-Advices
from Fort Thomas say that Cyclone Bill,
who was arrested at Clinton Wednesday,
is undoubtedly one of the gang that
robbed Paymaster Wham. He answers
the description of the lame man. He can
not explain his whereabouts during sew
eral hours previous to and after the rob-
berry, Four others of the gang are
known, and will probably be arrested to-
day.
Awoman passed Major Wham on horse
back half an hour before the attack, going
toward Thomas, and when the fight was
over she was seen near by. She says she
saw the robbers and recognized six of
them, all of whom are well known in the
vicinity of Thomas.
Topeka, May II, 1854 telegram re-
ceived last night by General Manager
Robinson states that the posse which is
in pursuit of the Mexican bandits who
murdered Superintendent Richards We'd
and got away with $1,000 of the Santa Fe
Company's money, is giving des-
perate and hot chase. Just before
dark Wednesday night the bandits were
almost overtaken at the foot OF the noun
tains. The party was near enough to
shoot at them and wounded one man
slightly. The criminals succeeded in
eluding their pursuers by hiding In a
canon. During the night they made
their escape. One bag of silver of
the value of $500, which the
Mexicans captured after numbering Su-
perintendent Richards, was found yester-
day, buried in the sand, few miles from
Carthage. The murderers are fleeing on
ponies, and the silver became too heavy
for them. They now have about $1,000 in
currency
Two employees in the mines, supposed
to be accomplices, have been arrested
The robbery, it is said could not have
been planned without aid of men who
were familiar with the office. Richards
had received from Topeka large sum of
money only an hour before. At any other
time he would have had nothing on hand.

SHOULD UNCLE SAM MAKE THE RULES2
IIans for Federal Regulation of Railway
Safety Devices.

Elans for Federal Regulation of Railway
Safety Devices.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May II, 1SS9-The
Interstate Commerce Commission today
addressed a circular letter to officials of
the different railroads throughout the
country intended to call out full informa-
tfon and discussion upon the Federal
regulation of safety appliances on rail
roads.
The Commission urge thorough consid-
Grafton and immediate attention to the
following matters of especial Importance
bearing on this subject
The history in each State of safety ap-
pliance legislation: how far such legisla-
tion has been enforced; What have been
the means used to enforce it; what obsta-
cles have been met with; what the gen.
eral effect has been.
What is the present condition regarding
automatic couplers; what prospect there
is Of uniform and safe coupler coming
into use; what progress the standard
coupler adopted by the Master Car Build
ers' Association is making, and what is
the attitude of railroads towards it.
What progress there is in the rise of
train-brakes on freight cars. Whether
such progress is satisfactory, viewed as a
means of greater safety to trainmen. To
what extent freight trains are run with
Oub tHe Necessity ol DEdkeHleH tTdselS1Hg
the tops of cars.
What is being done to introduce safer
methods of holding and lighting passenger
cars.
What is the state of affairs respecting
other safety devices.
Whether legislation looking to Federal
regulation of these matters, or any of
them, is desirable, and what the reasons
are for and against such regulation.
What such Federal legislation, If any
be desirable, should attempt to accom-
plish in regard to couplers, in regard to
train brakes, in regard to car heating and
lighting, in regard to other matters.
What its provisions should be upon each
of these points.
If Federal legislation be expedient,
what special administrative agencies, If
any, should be provided to carry it out.
Whether Federal inspection should be at
tempted, and to what extent and how.

A CELLAR MYSTERY.
Il MISSING BABE FOUND NUDE
AND LOCKED IN Il CELLAR,

And Now the Wonder Is Who Locked
the Baby Up, and Who Took Its
Clothing and why?-The Police In
vestigating.
The police and detectives of the Second
precinct are mystified over the finding
yesterday of the sixteen-months-old child
of Mrs. Julia Eagan, of No. 1873 Eighth
street. locked in Mrs. Sheridan's cellar,
across the street, at No. 145.
The child, when found, was naked, its
back and head were considerably bruised
and she generally showed marks of vic
lence.
Mrs. Eagan said she left the child sit
ting in her front yard yesterday morning,
between eight and nine o'clock, while she
filed her wash tubs with water, it being
her general wash day. When she re-
turned, shortly afterward, she missed the
child, and asked little eight-year-old
boy, who was playing in the yard and
who had been requested to look after the
youngster, what had become of her baby.
He did not know. She looked through
the house, then up and down the street.
None of the children along the sidewalks
had seen anything of the child, and a
search along the river revealing no traces,
the mother became alarmed and reported
the matter at the station house.
No tidings were heard of the child until
about four o'clock in the afternoon, when
a woman who resides on the lower floor
of the Sheridan house, who had seen Mrs.
Eagan searching for her babe all day, in
formed the frantic mother that a child
had Just been found in Sheridan's cellar,
naked and without clothes Mrs Eagan
rushed frantically into Sheridan's house.
She says she made no accusations, but
was upbraided by Mrs. Sheridan as MUIR
deress, and beaten out of the house, with
the child in her arms, by that lady with a
broomstick.
The husband says he, too, was beaten
out when he went over to make enquiries.
/ saw Mr.. Sheridan, the owner of No. 145.
He is an agreeable, intelligent looking
young man, and the ladies about the por-
ton of the house occupied by
him appear to be reputable.
Beyond admitting that Patrick
Eagan, the father of the child, was in his
house drunk yesterday, and came near
falling over the stair rail, ne had nothing
to say. None of the folks would talk
A demented girl, who lives in Sheridan's
house, may probably be accountable for
the mysterious transaction, but rumor
says she was not out of bed at the time
the child was first missed.
The detectives are at work unravelling
the mystery.

By Gable to the United Press.
LONDON, May II, 1SS9.-General Bou-
langer is credited with preparing new
surprise for the world. According to
good authority he now intends, since the
Senate is likely to abandon his prosecu-
ton, to return to Paris. The report says
that his followers have been com
municated with and the most elaborate
preparations are making for his tri-
umphal return to the French capital.
The General is disgusted at his treat
ment in London, and has declared to a
friend that he would rather trust to the
tender mercies of his own nation, and the
defence of his friends, than to longer tres
pass ON the cool courtesy OF the English,
with whom he has gained neither fame
nor position The General complains es-
pecially of his treatment by the news
papers, many of which have derided him.
1t is owing, no doubt, for the most part
to the papers that Boulanger has been
practically boycotted in England. He
began his London career more like
lected as his companions certain class OF
public men who are not usually accepted
as the aides de camp of society.
STILL NO PROTECTION FOR CHILDREN.
Mr.. Mundella, Gladstonian Member of
Parliament for Brightside, is much dis
appointed at the result of his efforts to
have the bill for the protection of children
considered in Parliament. While both
Liberals and Conservatives admit its need
and would probably pass it if it came up,
yet more pressing business keeps this
and other good measures back. The
bill provides for the proper care OF chill
dren whose parents neglect them; 1t en-
braces q clause on the perniclous practice
of insuring children's lives which has re-
suited in numerous murders OF insured
children, and It also deals with the exh1-
bition of children upon the stage.
Mr. Mundella has been working hard to
get night appointed for a hearing OF his
bill, but he will probably be obliged to
wait until after the Whitsuntide recess.
LoNSDALE'S ADVENTURES.

prospective book.
