Trouble In the Middle States League.
HARRISBURG, June 10. - There Is
likely to be some surprising changes In
the Middle States league between this
and July /. When the. league was
formed there was much complaint about
admitting the Cuban Giants, princi-
pally on account of their color, and now
that they are proving their superior
strength, against all the other clubs In
the league, the complaints have become
more general and bitter. The managers
Of the other clubs feel impeIIed to do
something in difference to the wishes Of
their patrons, who would like to see the
season finish with clubs Of more equal

The murmur that Instantly arose from
the audience fairly shook the building.
William M0ifatt and Daniel Douohue,
who had both lost relatives in the disas-
ter, arose together and denounced the
speakers consignment of the sufferers as
horrible.
An Indignation Meeting.
A large part of the audience left the
room and on arriving on the street an
indignation meeting was held. Some of
the more hot headed suggested that q
committee be appointed to return up
stairs for Mr. Madden and that he be
treated to the indignation of mob. Be-
fore this suggestion was put into effect
several women arrived ON the scene,
deprecated the conduct of Madden and
plead that for their sales no violence be
done him. The crowd finally but
sullenly consented to let the Rev. Mad
den 90 scot free.
After lapse of time he emerged from
the hall and was approached by Mr..
Donohue who demanded an explanation
of his strange remarks Mr.. Madden
said that il given time he would have
cleared up matters, and that his remarks
were only applicable to rum sellers.
It Panied the Ladies'.
It is but just to the ladies who COM
prise the union, to say that the Rev.
Maddens remarks panied them deeply.
Mrs. Jones called in all of lhe ladies
connected with the union to use and
show their disapproval of the occur
renee, which they did to woman. A
resolution was presented showing the
hearty sympathy of the union for the
Johnstown sufferers and its willingness
to aid them in any way possible. The
resolution drew forth the applause of
the crowd and was unanimously
adonted.

From Foreign Lands.

During the performance of "a Midsummer
Nights Dream" at the opera at Berlin,
Princess Adalbert of Bavaria was seized with
a violent attack Of hystcria, and had to be
removed. She has since become worse. 1t is
believed that she is insane. After the princess
had been taken from the theater the play was
resumed.
Some anxiety has been o ccasioned at Pan
ANA by the crisis through which the Panama
Canal company has been passing recently.
Seri ous alarm, however, has not been felt,
the faith in the ultimate successful issue OF
the enterprise being great. Work still con-
tinues steadily on the canal, the various con-
tractors have promptly paid off uD to date
and everybody seems cheerful and unaffected.
Apart from the inevitable indulgence in talk
more or less wild by uniformed and ire
sponsible parsons, the only sign Of any crisis
is to be found in tbs money market, where
the premium on gold and foreign notes has
advanced from "A to so per cent.
In La Nacional, the most representative
newspaper of Central America, which appears
in San Domingo, is a letter from III. c. Asst
wood, United States consul, to Sir Figuero,
minister of the interior in San Domingo.
The letter sounds so incredible that only the
serious character of the paper and the docu-
ments printed therein are guarantees for it's
truth. The letter says in part: ''Mr. H: M.
Linnell, citizen of the United States, has
requested me to ask the Dominican govern
ment whether the bones of the immortal
Christopher Columbus, the discoverer of
America, and permit for the exhibition of
them could be obtained of them from the
government. The interest which the people
in America take in their history is SO intense
that the presence Of Columbus remains in
the larger cities would create enough curiosi-
ty to swsll the treasury of the Dominican
republic to decree unprecedented in it's his
tory to this letter Minister Figuero wrote
an indignant reply in which the offer was per.
.emptorily declined. La Naciona4 and other
Spanish American newspapers treat the affair
in the same indignant tenor, and ask that
Secretary Bayard recall Mr.. Astwood.

Living Without Food,

Josephine Bedard is pretty, dark eyed,
vivacious French Canadian girl, who has
been on O Christmas visit to her uncle and
cousins at Lewiston, Maine, for the past
few days. If her story is true she has tasted
more than 2, $50 days, having neither eaten
nor desired to eat nor tasted foodin anyfOrm
for that length of time.
Her story, us told by herself, was that she
was born on her fathers farm in Tingwyck,
u small agricultural town in Canada, in 1872.
Her mother was stricken with disease
which terminated fatally when Josephine
was but three months old. AS a child she
grew robust and strong. She attended
country school a short time, and atprward
assisted in the household duties at home.
On Christmas day. 1881, she was violently
attacked with diphtheria, and for three weeks
she was between life and death From this
sickness begins the date of her prolonged and
curious fast, and today, as for years, her
means of substance is derived from water
only, which she drinks as people drink or
dinarily. No form Of eatables can arouse her
sleeping appetite, and the most delicious
fruits are no temptation to her.
Mr. Bedard said that when in Canada. in
order to remove the doubts of all skeptical
persons Josephine aslocked in room for1j
days. as q test, with no nOuriShmpnt but
water, and that she came out AT the end of
that time without experiencing the slightest
illness leading Montreal physician
pronounced her physical wonder,
and offered Josephine s father 500 Tor the
privilege OF taking her into custody with
view to solving the cause OF her peculiar con-
dition. This Mr. Bedard refused to do
Several other inducements have been held
out to her to travel as u curiosity; but she
prefers to remain In her country home where
she has the care of her fathers FIVE children
by second wife, and where the OnerOGS du.
ties of a farm house deyOlve upon her.

Great Fire in st, Louis.

The six-story brick building of the Rich ard
son Drug company was reduced to ruins on
New Years morning. So fierce was the fire
that five minutes after the alarm was turned
in the buildings across the street were smok-
ing and we're about to burst into flames
Every few minutes q terrible explosion would
detonate throughout the buildings and q
graceful curl of fire, many feet in height and
diameter, would leap high into the air and
summon the reyeiing rioters Of New Years
night to the scene of the destruction, Whsn
every pane Of glass was out of the building
the tongues of fire leaped out. and their heat
made the narrow street sheol for the gal
liant fireman who toiled with bursting burn
ing hose to save the property. Their coats
smoked and their hands were blistered when
exposed to the glare, and many dropped the
lines and sought the shade Of an adjacent
building. 1t was magnificent an awful
sight from the first two minutes after it's
discovery until about three o'clock, when
the building collapsed and there was thing
more to burn. The building was erected
several years ago, at cost of $50, 600. 1t
was one Of the largest wholesale drug
stores In the country. The buildings in
close proximity to the fire was scenes of ire
mendous excitement. The Ehler house, a place
at 200 South Fourth street, occupied by
boarders, was the scene of q panic. The
screams Of frightened women, and men rush
ing to-and-fro from room to room after their
friends, created much terror. Finally the
fremen came to their assistance and all the
occupants were safely rescued. ~
Audrey Geroghty, the night watchman in
the Richardson drug house has been miss
ing since the fire, and it's believed that he
perished in the burned building. The vic.
TINS widow and fourteen-year-old daughter
created @ terrible scene at the ruins, plead
ing for search for the remains in the still
burning building.
Mr.. Cliff Richardson, the general manager
OF the concern, gives the value of the stock
on hand at about $675,OOO and the insur,
ance at $65O,00O. The buildings occupied
were valued at about 100000. The origin
of the fire is not yet known.

SaYei by Her L0Yar

The mountain sections OF North Carolina
have recently become infested with numbers
of Mormon missionaries who have gone
there and are institutilg an open system of
prosylyting among people of that section
They have already made II number OF con-
verts to their faith whom they induce to &C
company them to Utah, and several delega-
tions have already left for the Mormon
state. A short time ago four elders, having
gained many converts, left with a party
from Rutherford and other coun-
ties for Utah. These mission
aries intensely appreciate the beauty of
women, and an attractive woman is worth
a premium in Utah. They converted Miss
McCurry, and desired her to accompany her
parents who were going to pOlygamous Utah.
But love had previously thrown around her
the witchery Of it's charms and she was en-.
gagged to a rustic swain. Her graceful figure,
her facinating eyes, formed picture of phys
ical perfection, and NormonS guarded her
as a precious prize for some rich Mormon.
Her lover pleaded in vain 10 marry his be-
trothed, but her parents and the Mormons
refused On the night previous 10 their de-
parture on the train, the resOiu e lover, with
shotguns, collected group OF young men,
charged the guard and captured his impris-
oned and beautiful sweetheart, whom he
soon made his bride. The angry father fol-
lowed in vain pursuit and LETT next day with
out his daughter. The people of the western
section of tho state are in a high state OF ex-
citement and Indignation at the high-handed
measures of the Mormons, and the prosely-
ting elder was few days ago expelled from

feathered if he remained

Brief Chapter on Relishes.

The relishes are of two classes.
First those which depend mainly on
one or more piquant substances, such
as pepper, mustard, ginger, horse
radish, cinnamon and the various
spices. These are combined with
some one or more-generally with
several of the following vegetables as
a base: tomatoes, usually green;
onions, cabbage, cucumbers, pears
peaches, currants, berries, grapes.
Secondly, those which depend
mainly on sugar, combined with the
juices of various fruits, or with the
pulp, as in the case of marmalade.
Now the question arises, are these
and similar relishes conducive to
health?
A normal, vigorous appetite needs
no such aid. 1t is sufficient of itself
The lower animals need nothing Of
the kind. The cows green grass, the
horses dry hay, and the dogs bone
with little meat on it, are doubtless
eaten with a relish that our pamper-
ed stomachs know little of
Unfortunately, all people have not
high health. Some are in a feeble
condition, with little or no ap-
petite. A sensitive appetite
and yet their recovery depends mainly
on the food they take. In such cases
some simple relish is not merely
greately desirable; it is necessary.
Many persons in this driving age,
cometo their meals with little appetite.
quickens and increases the gastic
secretions, In such cases, therefore.
some piquant relish is really helpful.
Probably even the strongest is not
injurious, ii used with moderation;
but relishes are ereately pernicious,
if used to encourage over-eating, or
to cause one to eat when the stoma-
che is already exhausted from previ-
Gus repletion.-Youths Companion.
