AN EGYPTIAN CONSPIRACY.
Important Documents Found In tn
Camp Of the Dervishes.

The startling news comes from Toski, the
Scene Of Saturdays overthrow of the dervish
hordes, that documents have been found in the
abandoned camp of wad ell N'Jumi and upon
the dead bodies Of his emirs which prove the
existence Of q widespread conspiracy with its
center among high officials of the Egyptian
army and prominent Egyptian leaders in Cairo.
The invasion by Wad Ell N'Jumi with his hand
full Of dervishes is shown by these documents
to have been merely an incident of this con-
spiracy, which was to have been followed by
wholesale treason on the part Of the Egyptian
army. These disclosures serve to explain what
has up to this time puzzled everybody
here-how the leader Of the dervishes
expected to accomplish anything with
the Insignificant force he brought with
him across the desert. It is now clear that
he expected to be joined at the Nile by the de-
serters from the Egyptian army itself, headed
by the traitors with whom he had been in cor
respondence, and by some Of the tribe upon
whose friendship Egypt had counted. Just
why the traitors at the last moment abandoned
the brave dervish leader to his fate and how it
came that their treachery was not consum-
mated 70 not yet clear. 1t Is quite likely, how
ever, that their plans were to throw of their
masks and join Wsd ell N'Jumis invaders after
they had crossed the Nile, and that Col wode-
houses discrimination to prevent their reach
ing the river ct all hazards and his unexpected
success in carrying out this purpose threw the
cCnspirators into confusion and disorganized
their carefully laid plans.

Gounod's First Composition,

From the Albany Express.
The following story is told about the begin
ming OF Gounods career as a musician: Gou-
mods parents did not at all fancy his taking up
music. They took counsel ON the subject with
the headmaster Of the school which their SON
attended, with the following result: ''Your son
become minister" Never, sir!'' replied the
master. HE has decided aptitude for Latin
and Greek" The next day Master Charles was
called into N. Persons study. .well, sir, they

A New Officer In Hotels.

From the Leavenworth (Kani Times.
The health officer Of Chicago, who resigned
because he found the maintenance Of health
there too onerous at the price, has accepted, it
is said, situation as consulting chemist for a
large hotel. 1t will be his duty to analyze all
the food used in the hotel and ascertain whether
1t has been adulterated or not. The idea is q
capital one and ought 70 be adopted by every
hotel in the country. The Times suggests a. an
Improvement that the result of the analysis be
published on the bills of fare, with the chemists

unusually curious about the mysterious disap-

him. After while began to ask questions,

about It, or at least nobody would tell me any
thing about il until one day months after the
general disappeared my colleague, the English
consul to whom had finally appealed, said
significantly. We don't talk about these mys-
terious disappearances down here. But the
fact is, between us, that they have gigantic ne

put in the adjoining cell with the door un-

done.'"

A new bank to take the place of the de-
funct Farmers and Mechanics bank on
the Southside will shortly be organized by
manufacturers and business men on that
side. The committee of stockholders, or
those who will be, consisting of Messrs-
Wenke, Brickel and Heisy have been con-
fering with John NJ. Kennedy, Esq, rela-
tive to charter, Mr.. d. o. Cunningham is
also one interested.
There was some talk that the company
would purchase the charter of the f. and NJ.
Bank, but Mr. Kennedy says this will not
likely be done, as it has but three years to
run. 1t was chartered in 1872, before the
general banking law was passed by the
Legislature. 1t is not. as some suppose, an
omnibus concern like that of the Penn
Bank, which allows the making of soap,
keeping OF a pawnshop, secondhand cloth
ing store and any of score or so other
things, but straight-away charter for the
purpose of banking.
Under the bill gotten up by Mr.. Shiras
last winter bank charters can be renewed.
This bill was intended to meet the exigency
of the expiration of the charter of the Bank
of Pittsburg, but it had to be made all to
take in one.
A new bank was talked of for some time
before the f. and NJ. collapsed, but it was
proposed to be located in the lower South
side, or rather about central, as many busi-
ness men over there found it hardship to
come over to this side of the river daily to
do business.

Arrangements Demoralized by the Flood
A Quorum Hard to Obtain-LittIe Done
Yesterday-Preparatory Abolition.
The officers of the Western University
held a meeting at the rooms of the Young
Mems Christian Association yesterday to
elect the officers for the ensuing year. The
meeting had been called three times before,
but no quorum could be obtained, and yes
terday nothing further was accomplished
than electing ]. B. Scott President of the
Board of Directors and Prof Griggs secre-
tarv and treasurer The others will be
elected at another meeting, soon,
In chat last night Prof. Griggs said that
the Johnstown food had completely demor-
allied the arrangements for building the
new University. and it was hard to get
quorum OF the officers or different commit
tees together again.
When the new building is completed, the
preparatory department, now in the R. P.
building, will be done away, and the stu
dents required to obtain their preparatory
education elsewhere. The standard of the
college will be raised in every particular.
A Visiting Committee has been inspecting
the different schools throughout the coun-
try, and will probably report at the next
meeting.
