ADJUSTMENTS. A

1.-THE Romany Rye" is drawing
crowded houses nightly at the Peoples,
and the new players are big favorites.
At Mrs. Myers benefit, June Z, at the
peoples, 1.-TWO Can Play at That
,Game' and "a Naval Engagement"
will be played.
This evening, at the Woodland Park
Baptist church, will be given a musical
and literary entertainment. Manly B.
Curry will give two recitations. The
entertainment is complimentary to Miss
Morgan, of the industrial department
connected with that church and its
missions.
This evening George 81. Adams and
Toma Hanlon open at the Newmarket
theater In 'He. She, Hiin or Her." one
of the funniest comedies ever pro-
.duced. George Adams is deservedly
called ''Grimaidi redivivus," as he is
one of the absurdeSt comedians on the
stage. Miss Toma Hanlon is one OF the
best soubrettes on the stage, and the
two together are warranted to keep any
audience ina roar of laughter for hours.
The story Of the play is that of waif
iconiing into a fortune. Miss Hanlon
and Mr.. adams are we'll known for
their clever singing, and the play with
the queer name should go we'll.

OUR HEROIC DEAD.

The mournful, yet grateful, service of
paying tribute to the memory OF our
dead heroes, by decorating their graves
with flowers. will again to-day be per-
formed throughout the entire land.
With each revolving year we are get
ting that much farther away from that
eventful per lod in our nations history
when they offered their lives as a sacri-
fee Oh the altar of country; yet it is a
gracious thought. that time cannot less
Ell the remembrance of their heroism or
diminish the quality of their fame.
Decoration day this year acquires
additional significance because of
its association with our centennial
anniversary. The dead whose MEM
ory we honor to-day died in de-
fense of that ''more perfect Union"
which our ancestors established
just one hundred years ago, and by
blending the event of their death with
that of the BIRTH Of the republic we
ourselves receive this day fresh bap-
tism of patriotism.
1t is to be devoutly wished that the
beginning of the next century OF our
national existence will still find the
American people making their annual
pilgrimage to the graves Of our dead
heroes and decorating with flowers
those censecrated mounds wherein re-
pose the ashes of those whose lives
were surrendered as the cost of perpet-
uating constitutional government On
this continent. For if the time should
ever come that these memorial services
should be abandoned. it would be pain
full evidence that. we were drifting
either toward monarchy or anarchy.

THAT HAYTIEN COMMISSION.

The row in administrator circles over
the appointment of the Haytien COM
mission is the logical result of the presi-
dents partiality for family pedigree.
He named BEVERLY TUCKER for a
place on the commission solely because
Mr.. TUCKER had in his veins some Of
the same blue blood of which the presi-
dent boasts. There could be no other
reason for the appointment, because, if
he had raked the continent with fine
tooth comb, President HARRISON could
not have found a person more unfit for
official station or less deserving public
recognition. BEVERLY TUCKER is
familiar as we'll as a picturesque figure
at the national capital, and his war rec
ord is a part Of the history of the cOun-
try. He is now an old man. scarcely
capable of accomplishing much in any
department of life; and if his appoint
ment had been free from all personal
and political objections, it would still
have been absolutely unfit because of his
advanced age and physical Disqualified
tiOns. But it SO happens that this BEV-
ERLY TUCKER is the same who figured
cO diOt0lfOuo1y duu HuTUuOIouoit
the war as Confederate agent and dip
lomaA at Nassau and in Canada, and who
was at one time associated, by common
report. with plot to abduct President
LINCOLN. His name was also associ-
ated with that of JACOB THOMPSON in
scheme Matched On. Canadian soil to
spread smallpox and other virulent
diseases among the Union soldiery.
Mr.. TUCKER may have been innocent
of all these accusations, but the fact
that they were made and generally
credited at the time, in addition to the
fact that he did perform the duties of
an office in the Confederate -serv-
ice that were considered reprehen-
sible by the soldiers on both sides.
was enough to have suggested
to the president the gross impro-
priety of such All appointment. While
we have always been disposed to con-
slider Gen. LEW WALLACE as something
of a blatherskite, we must express our
admiration of his sense of personal self
respect in declining to be associated on
the commission with Mr.. TUCKER.
Gen. WALLAcE's conduct in this mat
ter is so strikingly in contrast with the
presidents. that it will attract universal
attention to Gen. HARR1soN's peculiar
weakness.

Wouldn't Say Dearest.

Boston Letter in Chicago Tribune
The enyious, whose howls are always
ELECTED By other peoples success, assert
that Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett is
affected. 1t is quite true that she has
her oddities. A lady here in Boston
tells of all occasion when she chance
to occupy rooms at hotel-it was sew
erel years ago-immediately adjoining
others tenanted by Mrs. Burnett and
her family. She had scarcely taken
possession of her apartment when she
heard Scampering of small feet
through the partition wall. and then
came child's cry of ''Mamma-mam.
map Whereupen ensued series Of
audible slaps and squeals, and finally
wOman's angry voice, saying: "How
often shall have to tell you to call me
dearest, and not mamma"
The humOr Of this lies in the fact
that, according to Mrs. Burnett's ac-
count, so often repeated to her friends.
the boys fell of their own accord into .
pretty way of calling their mother by
their fathers pet name for her. 1t will
be remembered that Little Lord Faun.

The JUDGE WOOD Of Indiana who
is.seesawing in the mind of the presi-
dent with ex-Partner MILLER, as the
nominee for the supreme court vacancy,
is the judge who managed to rule so as
to let out the Republicans indicted tor
election frauds last year, although he had
tOreyerse his own decisions by which he
sent Coy, the Democrat, to the peniten-
tiary on similar charges two years be-
fore. The Indignation excited over the
opposing rulings caused both Democrats
and Republicans to petition for the par
don of Coy, which the president has
just granted. WOOD is evidently good
material for the supreme bench.

PROMINENT BUT BAD.
WelI-Known Texans Arrested fOB
an Old Murder.

GALVESTON, Tex, May 29.-Consid.
cradle excitement was occasioned hero
to-day by the arrest Of Judge Henry
Weyer, justice of the peace of Calves
ton county, and w. T. Allen and
Charles Juneman, well-iznown citi-
zens, living several miles down the
island, on an Indictment found by the
last grand jury, charging them with the
murder of Richard Fleischig. in this
county, on the goth of August,
1884. The Indictment also included
Fred KOehler, late constable in Justice
Weyer's precinct, but at present absent
from the city, and Cliff Porter, who left
Galveston very suddenly and mysteri.
ously after tie lynching of young
Fleischig. Juneman is engaged in tho
dairy business. Allen has been re.
Gently employed in the Farmers alli
ance exchange. Koechler was con-
stable of the Third precinct. Weyer,
Allen and Koehler are all promi-
nent members of the Galveston
county alliance. AS soon as the indict-
ment was found an officer left Calves
ton for Kentucky to arrest Porter. He
also got similar requisition from the
governor Of Kentucky. Porter was
found at Latonia, KY, where, as the
OWlC1 vi buO SiCOtC SLdUlCo, uC was 0ite
gagged in the races now in progress at
that place. The crime with which these
men gre charged is the lynching OF q
young German, Richard Fleischig, in
this country in August, 1884,
for an assault made upon the wife of
Juneman. The present indictment was
found upon the disclosure of new evil
dence, namely. an affidavit made by
Henry Heinroth, who affirms that about
a month after the lynching of Fleischig
he Secreted himself under house and
listened to a conversation be-
tween the persons now under ar.
rest, the substance of which was practi-
cally confession On the part of Weyer.
Juneman, Allen and KOehler to having
committed tie murder. The recent grand
jury ordered the body of Fleischig to be
exhumed, which was done May 21 under
the auspices of Justice Spann and County
physician Bnrk. AS soon as the indict-
ment was found, Officer Jordan took
the train for Kentucky in search of Por.
ter. Nothing was found in Fleischig's
coffin but a lot of dry bones. A badly
decomposed rope that mad been left
around the neck of Fleischig was also
found in the coffin.

A DECISION by the good dWANAMAKER
in a recent case in his own state has a
suggestion in 1t for Republicans who
may have occasion to be reviewed by
him. The congressman picked out his
man from the dozen candidates and
sent his name to WANAMAKER as usual.
This would have settled the matter, but
a committee came forward and related
to the good WANAMAKER that the man
selected kept cigar store and did not
close iton Sundays, and besides had q
rear room where he ran pool table.
This shocking information settled his
case. He could not be p. M. with the
consentof WANAMAKER. Noman who
sells cigars and has "a pool table need be
a candidate for q pOstOffice.

after lengthy hearing before Judge
Burr yesterday morning, was held to
the grand jury under S1,50O bonds. A
great deal of testimony was given
which casts favorable light upon the
case as to Eppstein. and goes far to I'M
peach the action of HOuck. Several
witnesses testified that Houck has fre-
Quently offered to let Eppstein off for
sums varying from 81 900 to 5000. II
was given in the evidence that Houck

STATE OFFICIALS SAY.

Frank Holmes, of the State Dairy
Observation-Disclosures night frosts are play
ing sad havoc in the country. / have
four acres of strawberries, and, owing
to the frost, question whether I will
obtain four bushels out Of the let.
Prof. Eberman-They make half rs
much cheese in Canada as is mannfact-
ured in the whole of the United States.
Dairy Commissioner Ives-I am send
ing Chemist Eberman to New York.
where he will purchase improved ma
terial for the state laboratory. We de-
sire to furnish the laboratory in the lat
est approved style in view of the new
aduiteration law, which will be put in
operation Aug. /. intend to yigOr-
onsly enforce that law and clear the
state from bad baking powder and vim
egar, beer and whisky.
Col. Bobleter- There is no reason why
every town in the state should not boast
OF militia company. The only thing
wanting is an energetic man IN each
town, and there are no lack of young
men willing to become members. 1t is
merely this lack of leading men-
ohcers-that weakens the militia in
the country. Officers, full of eHthus-
iasm, always succeed in raising and
maintaining strong company. 1t is
also desirable tnat means should be
afforded the adjutant general to dis
tribute military information ameng the
officers of the state regiments. Changes
in tactics. etc, adopted by the national
military officers are forwarded to the
adjutant generals department., but it is
only by accident that the officers OF
state regiments learn of these. This is
a great drawback to officers in the ceun
try, and some remedy should be af-
fOrded.
State Law Librarian Taylor-The fed
eral officials have furnished me with q
big pile of laws passed at the last ses-
sion of congress. They are for distribn-
tion. and will be glad if lawyers will
CONE round and relieve Inc of them.
Public Examiner Kenyon find there
are fifteen national loan and mortgage
associations operating in this state.
Under new law these associations are
to be examined yearly by me, and l am
just now reducing their bylaws to the
requirements of the act. The stock
holders of many Of the companies, hax-
ing heard of the passage of the law
governing such corporations. have al
most made life miserable to me by their
anxious inquiries as to the nature OF its
operations. They are all fearful OF ad-
verse legislation. The law is good
one. and is in the interests of the cor
porations and public alike.
Boiler Inspector Clark have five
applications for the position of deputy
boiler inspector for my district. Two
are required. l am submitting them to
searching examination, and will then
determine who shall be appointed.
Executive Clerk w. II. Angell-1 have
lived in this state all my life, and from
close study of the subject confidently
say that in ten or fifteen years the pop
uiation OF the Twin Cities will be
one million!
Chief Grain Inspector James-These
frosts will not iDjure the grain crops
materially. 1t is too early in the season.

much exaggeration in this, as 1t is re-

the Republicans have been playing
with them. and are likely to hold them
