THE DOCTOR AND THE LAWYER.
A doctor and lawyer once fell out,
and engaged in row.
"You are bad man." said the
lawyer. you fatten on other peoples
misfortunes. Nobody wants to have
any dealings with You, and you are
never asked to see well man"
And YOU" retorted the doctor, get
folks into quarrels in order TO swindle
them while they are mad. While
charge n man a reasonable fee for re-
storing his health, You take most OF
mans money for advising how to lose
the rest"
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1889-10-02

Both of them told the truth, which
shows that it is poor policy to engage
in quarrel.

BUFFALO, n. T., April 2S.-The even

WAsHINGTONs FORGOTTEN.
Attention Called to the Blunder
of the Centennial Committee.

RICHMOND, Va, April 2S.-Jefferson
Davis recently addressed a letter to DR..
j. j. Washington, of Mississippi, calling
attention to the fact that the centennial
committee on invitations had omitted
from the list of invited guests MANY
Of the most con spicuous of the Wash

Washington's reply to Mr.. Davis let
ter:
Mr.. Jefferson DAVIS: Dear Sir-I accept
very gratefully your kind offer to present the
names of my family to the New York centen-
NAL committee, for, though it is more to our
taste to belong to the unrepresented majority,
l agree with you that, as children of circum-
stance, it may have become our duty not to
deny that we have an existence. The yery
Lewises who are invited guests are the pre-
sent owners of Audley, the ancestral home of
my grandfather, whose descendants are
legion. My father, Fairfax Washington, was
a descendant of Lawrence, the Immigrant
brother of John, ancestor of George Wash
ingtoD. Quentin Washington leaves unmen-
toned very many and the most prominent
even of the Virginia Washingtons The fam
lily, including the Fairfax and Whiting
branches, are so numerous throughout the

acteristic non-assertiveness the few names
enrolled would be amazing. Use this state
ment as you think appropriate and accept
our renewed thanks for your thoughtful kind
ness Yours very truly,

AN ELEVATOR TRUST.
ST. Louis Grain Men Put TheiE
Heads Together.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April est is about
definitely settled that the eleven grain
elevators of st. Louis will form a
trust OF combine, the idea being to put
a stop to the expensive competition
which now exists. Capt. ID. p. Slattery,
the moving spirit in so many successful
enterprises, is authority for the
statement that the majority of
the st. Louis elevators have agreed to
enter the combination and the project
Will likely go through. Realizing that
competition has placed the ele-
vators in a line of business which
is somewhat uncertain, even when
confined to the safest limits, the man.
ayers of the different concerns have
come to the conclusion that if competi-
ton was removed and the elevators
assured the certain profits they
might make as warehouses. and the
saving in many other directions would
in the long run make the business
more profitable than it is now, and
wholly remove the hazard to which the
business is now exposed. IL is
figured that $4,000 per year can be
saved in switching charges alone, while
100000 per year of a reduction would
be made in the expense of operating.
The size of the syndicate which will
manage the elevators will naturally be
large, for the original value of the prop.

PACKED WITH HUMANITY.
Such Crowds Never Before Seen
in New York


New YORK, April 2S.-Evening.-
Such crowds as are here On the streets
to-day were never seen before in New
York on Sunday. Fifth avenue and
Madison square are almost impossible,
while lower Broadway and Wall street
are packed. The crowd was drawn to
Wall street and vicinity to view the
scene of the decorations of the sub
treasury building and the custom house.
The sound of the hammer is heard all
over the city of those who are getting
ready the decorations for the Washing
ton centennial, and the scenes of
to-day will be much beautifed thereby
for the morrow. The leading hotels,
such as the Hotel Brunswick, the Hoff-
man house, Fifth Avenue hotel and
others, are like mountains of gay bunt-
ing, beneath which there are few
glimpseS of their actual structure. To-
night tie finishing touches are being
put on the pier at the foot of Wall
street, where the president will land to-
morrow. 1t is Pier No. 16, East river.
1t is said that $4,000 is being spent in
this work. The pier is $50 feet long, and
is divergent to two apartments by means
of two large curtains suspended from
the beams. The part facing the river
will be decorated only with large
American
FLAG ON THE ROOF
The part of the pier facing South
street is covered with decorations. Over
hundred American flags are draped
over 1t, supported by the coats of arms
of the various states, and numberlesS
streamers hung from every point. a
float is arranged for the presidential
party to land. 1t is scovered with carpet
and concealed at the sides with bunting.
Extending from Piers 16 to II were
strung two lines of streamers. Sixty
flags and many streamers decorate
the roof of the pier. Tine SUBJ
treasury building and the custom
house are covered with thousands
of dollars worth of decorations.
The tardy decoration of the city hall
has also been finished tonight. Flags
in the form of half rosettes suspended
by the coats of arms of the states, dec
crate the sides, while on the roof are
the stars and stripes and colored flags.
The Sabbath was not observed among
the craft of all kinds ON the rivers to-
day. Everything was being put INTO
ship shape for the morrow. Many
steamers already had their bunting fly
ing, and on all the work of overhaul
ing the decorations in readiness for the
early morning hours was being pushed
rapidly.

STOPPED BY THE POLICE;.
New York's Coppers Prevent Some
Sabbath Work,

New YORK, April 2s.-An army of
men was put to work to-day 10 finish
the different stands for sight-seers to-
morrow. AS soon us 1t was learned at
police headquarters that these men
were desecrating the Sabbath. orders
were at once issued to the captains of
the precincts in which the work was
going on to have it stopped. The first
gang of men encountered was found in
front Of the Church of the Divine Pa
ternity, Rev. DR.. Eaton, corner of Forty
fifth street and Fifth avenue. The fore
man at first refused to stop work, but
as soon as he was threated with arrest
he changed front, and took his men
away. The aldermanic stand, at the
the Stewart mansion, needed but a few
supports to finish it, but the police re-
fused to let any more work go on. Con-
tractors are offering as much as So for

and the roaring of the flames. Con-
ductor Poole says that the train was
FIFTEEN MINUTES LATE,
but was not running more than twenty
miles an hour when the accident hap
pened, as the orders are that trains
must not run at that particular place
greater speed than twenty miles. The
place where the accident occurred is
considered dangerous, as there is a
switch on rather sharp curve, hence
the precaution of running slowly.
Seven cars, baggage car, two
first-clasS coaches, smoker, first
class day coach and two Wag-
ner sleepers were burned, there being
not vestlge of wood or anything that
could burn left. One car, the baggage
car, was demolished, and the engine
was the most complete wreck magma
bic. The loss to the company will be
enormous. Many of those in the train
were going to New York to participate
in the centennial festivities. Most of
the passengers lost all or a portion of
their baggage and clothing and large
amount of the mails were lost by fire.
ANOTHER REPORT
of the accident says that the remains of
from sixteen to eighteen men were
taken out of the wreck. They were cut
to pieces almost to man, and burned
beyond all possibility of recognition.
They were huddled together in heap
in the end of the smoker, and were
pinned in by the timbers which made it
impossible fer them to extricate them
selves. Nothing could be done for them,
as the fierceness of the flames made
it out of the question for men to rescue
them. The only way in which it could
be ascertained that from sixteen to
eighteen bodies had been taken out, was
from the fact that legs and arms CORE
spending to about that number, were
found. The remains were taken to the
city hospital and placed in the morgue
awaiting identification. An inquest
will be held tomorrow. 1t will, in all
probability, be days before the dead are
identified. Some of the wounded were
also taken to the city hospital.

large amount OF traffic. Hundreds
slept on newspapers spread over the

mile long waiting for mail at the post

here, but the people would pay double
that amount if asked to do so. Women
