some Antnore's FuiI Names.

Seeing Bret Harte's name ON the title
page of his latest book the other day
recalled to me how general had become

such is the authors baptismal name

others. Austin Dobson was Henry

Bradner Matthews was christened

and Howard Seelcy is Edward Howard
Seeley, Jr. Frank Stockton is really
Francis Richard Stockton, while Joa-
quin Miller is corruption OF Cincin-

One Of the most important enterprises
in Paris is the Compressed Air cenpa-
ny, which distributes power throughout
the city. 1t began with q pneumatic.
clock system about 1870. This business
grew until there are now about 5000
pneumatic clocks, public and private,
driven from a station about four miles
of east the Madeleine. The company dis.
tributes power for any purpose. There
are about $50 motors, varying in power
from, one-eight horsepower to fifty

all driven from the central station. The

PAT GRANT. LETTER WRITER.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, August 10-A con-
spicuous and interesting figure in the
1rish-Anerican world at present is the
man whose attacks upon Patrick Ford,
John Finerty, Alexander Sullivan, and
also upon the general management in
America of the Irish-American cause. and
whose letters have been published recently
in the Chicago Inter-Ocean over the sigma
ture pat Grant. railroad laborer." The
letters became quite noted for their clear
style, comprehensive treatment and, above
ali, for their scathing and bitter sarcasm.
BY some the letters have been compared to
those of Junius and Arthur Richmond.
Altogether they made quite a stir. The
letters were dated from''th Powderly Ho-
tel, Kansas City" The Powderlv hotel is
a cheap lodging house, where day
laborers live. 1t was there that
reporter found Pat Grant
today. He is just what he signs himself.
a railroad laborer," having been employ
ed by various contractors in the construc-
tion of road beds and railway tracks. He
has doubtless had romantic career, al
though he refuses to discuss his identity.
He is an Irishman, was educated at the
university of Dublin, and has travelled
the world over. Sudden misfortune over
took him and he was not too proud to work
honestly for an honest living. In this way
he became employed as a railroad laborer.
A recent illness confined him TO his room,
and during his conyaleScence he wrote the
letters referred to. Beyond these meagre
facts of his career Pat Grant would dis
close nothing Of his life. He was engaged
in writing one of his letters today when
the reporter called upon him.

BAR HARBOR, Me-, August 10.-Presi-
dent Harrison went for sail today, the
guest of Secretary and Mrs. Blaine, on the
passenger steamer, Sappho. One hundred
guests were on board. Before the steam
had been away of the wharf ten minutes
some OF them became uncomfortable. The
sea was choppy and the steamer rolled as
if she was several days out at sea. The
president stood in the pilot house chatting
with first one and then another. He kept
his place and while he was not sick the
change in his face showed that he
not quite like it. Meanwhile the
Turkish minister took lounge in the sa
loon, evidently feeling badly, and when
Walker Blaine asked if the internal rela-
lions of Turkey were entirely peaceful he
rolled oyer with groan and said that he
hoped so. Many others aboard the boat
showed symptoms of sea sickness but the
sail through the rough water lasted less
than an hour and the effects were not serl-
Gus. The steamer drew alongside the
Clytetic, a masted schooner which was in
the middle of the channel and asked for
a rope. The boats were made fast
and while the boats remained together a
lunch was served in the saloon in true
democratic style, the president sitting on
a seat with napkin on his Knee and
plate in his hand. When returning a boat
was lowered and Mrs. Lodge and several
other ladies took seats in it. They were
rowed to shore and took a buckbo for
Bar Harbor. After dinner and the ride
the president and the Blaines went to
which the Kibo club gave in his
honor, followed by reception and dance
at which $50 were presented. President
Ogden Goldman presented President Har-
rison to the people and he remained there
about an hour.

THE SANTA FE'S THROUGH TARIFF.

CHICAGO, August 10.-The Atchison,
Topeka e. Santa Fe railway company has
issued its long expected tariff on business
from points west of the Missouri river. It.
bears this significant sentence: This
tariff to apply only to the Santa Fe, Chi
cago & California railway company on
business originating west of Kansas City"
The significance OF this is that the Atchi-
son does not propose to divide any of its
trans-Missouri business with the Kansas
City-Chicago lines, but proposes to for
ward it all over its own line-the Chicago,
Santa Fe & California from that point.

VFRY POOR MARKSMEN.
Six Shots at Twelve PAGES Between
Georgians With no Effect.

ATLANTA, Ga, August fitzpatrick
Calhoun, general counsel for the West
Point terminal company and G. ID. Will
iams,cn pc dent of the Chattanooga
Columbus road, left the city last night Tor
some point outside the state. Their irten-
ton was to fight a duel.
The duelling ground was pitched about
200 feet over the Georgia line in Alabama
on the Rome & Decatur railway. Twelve
PAGES were stepped off, when at the signal
Williamson fired five barrels in succession
at Mr.. Calhoun, who it is said fired once.
whereupon Mr.. Calhoun again demanded
an apology. After consultation an under
standing was reached, when Mr.. Calhoun
fired the remaining barrels in the air and
the parties separated. By direction of
Governor Gordon several officers were de-
tailed TO arrest the parties before the af-
fair, but they were unsuccessful.
Captain Harry Jackson, of Atlanta, was
Calhoun's second. and Captain Jack King,
of Rome, was Williamson's second.
This is the result of controversy before
a committee of the house of representatives
when Calhoun charged that Williamsons'
purpose in the organization of his road
was to sell out to the Central of
Georgia. This Williamson denounced
as false. Yesterday Calhoun sent a
demand for retraction. Williamson sent
reply refusing further communication, the
result being an agreement to go outside
the state for further negotiations, 1t being
a felony to send a challenge in Georgia.
Both men left last night for the famous
duelling grounds at Sandbar Ferry. The
prominence of all the gentlemen concerned
has created a great sensation. Patrick
Calhoun is the grandson of John &. CAL
houn, and is probably the most prominent
railroad lawyer in the south. Williamson
is well known throughout the east as
railroad builder.
