 LOWELL, Mass. Sept. 4.--William S. Davis, of No. Dodge street, this oity, received letter from California con. taining the informant on that his father, who left his mother and little children at Pittsheld, Me-, in 1S49, was living, but very ill at Rockland, Cal. It was signed "Unknowp Friend" who proved to be the postmistress.
 Wm W. Davis, the father, who is now so years of age, left his home with that he would return rich. She heard nothing of him aftArward. About 25 years ago she heard he was killed by the Indians, and then she married a man named Hummer, with whom she still lives at Pittsfield.
 The facts indicate that the absent husband and father has kept trace of his family during his self imposed ex- lIe. The father is now anxious to see some of his friends from the East.

 LONDON, Sept. 4.-The Marquis de Leuville left this city for Boulogne, where be arrived and registered at the Hotel Marine. It is reported that the Marquis has gone to fight duel. The other fellow is French correspondent for sydicate of Paris newspapers.
 Ths origin of the duel lies among the other relics of Mrs. Frank Leslie's visit to England two months ago.
 Last week the French correspondent undertook to interview the Marquis about Mrs. Leslie. De Leuville threat ened to kick him out of the house. but found out that he couldn't. Then She newspaper man got saucy and calle d the Marquis all sorts of disagreeab le names. Finally he was put out.

 CITY OF GUATEMALA, Sept. 4.-'tDeath to Yankees p was the cry of an angry and excited mob that surrounded the United States Legation all day.
 Threats of stoning the building and mobbing the inmates were freely ut- tered, but no overt act was committed in the face of the strong force of police that guards the premises day and night. Every visitor is closely questioned be- fore being admitted to the offices, and Is, more or less, under surveillance while inside and until he emerges again.
 Whenever Mir. Mizner has occasion to leave the Legation he is surrounded by a body guard of armed police. Rumor has 1t that these are to bel superseded by blue jackets from the Thetis, who are also to form a eordon of safe tv about the Legation.
 Sympathy grows for General Bar daughter, who is kept a close prisoner for her attempt upon MT. life.

 Dispatch to Gen. BArrundIn's Widow.
 WASHINGTON. Sept. 4. Concerning the resolution adopted by the New York Board of Aldermen relative to the population of that city under the re- cent enumeration, and demanding 6 recount, Superintendent Porter said in an interview that there is no reason for ordering a recount in that city, all tn @ collateral evidence serves to corrobor- ate the accuracy of the enumer ation.
 The official returns from the State of New Jersey when published will prob- ably give an explanation of the fact that the population of New York did not increase during the last decade as rapidly as some anticipated it would. As the business of the city has ea- eroached upon the residence quarters the residents have found homes in what might almost be called surbur ban towns adjacent to New York in New Jersey. From the returns already tabulated in the Census Office there is every reason to believe that the re- suits of the New Jersey census will in a large measure explain the apparently small increase in New York city.
 An increase of nearly 43 per cent. in Brooklyn also means that large num- Der of people who carry on business in New York have sought homes in Brooklyn.
 Porter denies the charge that politics had anything to do with the work of making up the census in New York.

Radical sOcialistio Utterances and De- mands Cheered by the Delegates.
 LONDON, Sept. 4.-The Conservative organs editorially minimize the im- portance of the Liverpool Trades Unions Council, though they, as we'll as all the other newspapers, devote columns of space daily to reports of it's proceedlngs and comments upon the speeches and resolutions.
 A noticeable feature of the congress is that the most radical socialistio ut terances and demands are cheered to the echo
 John Burns speeches display an un- expected amount of temper, and it is evident that Burns is much more cautious and wise as leader in action than he is as speaker.
 The Congress has voted to accent an invitation for an international labor conference in Brussels in 1891. A num- Der of meetings were held last night in different parts of Liverpool, at which delegates to the council delivered ad- dresses.

THE STRIKE INQUIRY.
The Hoard Adjourns to Meet at Albany
 TO-Mnrrow Mornlng.


 NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-The State Board of Mediation and Arbitration continued its investigation relative to the New York Central Railroad strike, but it adjourned at 11:15 to resume its labers at Albany tomorrow morning.
 Superintendents Toucey and Vor- hees and Foreman ]. w. Stephens of the Central gave some testimony re- garding the dismissals of the men be- fore the Board adjourned, but the tes- simony was unimportant.
 After the Board adjourned Mir. Pow derly said that he and his colleagues were pleased at what had been de- veloped in the investigation. Itproved, he said, that the company was waging warfare against the Knights of Labor.
 The correspondence between General Master Workman Powderly and Master Workman Lee, excited much comment, and it was thought that the giving of It to the press was an evidence that the strike would be declared off Mir. Powdsriy refused to talk about the matter. A. ". Wright sad there was no prospect of the strike being ordered of. The letters, he thought, were not an evidence of weakness. The fight would be continued. The strikers held B meeting and resolved to remain out

THE SUGAR SCHEDULE.

Senator EdmuHds Opposes the Reel
 prOCity Amendment.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. An tue Senate MT. Ednunds, in discussing the sugar schedule of the Tariff bill, said if the duty of two cants a pound were taken off from sugar he did not believe the price of sugar would fall two cents pound. It would be apt tC turn out as coffee had turned out. He did not want to be led into putting sugar on the free list on what he believed to be the failacious and illusive idea that because sugar was now two cents a pound cheaperlin London than in New York. it would then be the same in 10th places. But even if the wholesale price of sugar did fall by means oi the removal of the duty the price a. the grooers would not fall. Somebody else than the consumer would make lhe money.
 He spoke of the reduction of the duty on coffee of three cents a pouGd in 1S7S and stated on the authori:y of ths American Minister to Brazil that as soon as that reduction was known at Rio Janeiro, the price of coffee there was put up three cents d pound. The same thing occurred, he said, two years afterwards, when coffee was mt on the free list.
 Experience has shown, from that day to this, that the American con, sumer, had proftted nothing whatever from the taking off ot tha: duty. But on the other hand, the United States had lost nearly $15O, 1000, 900 which it would have received from the duty on Brazilian coffee alone.
 As @ practical farmer and farmers son, he thought that the farmers i n the region where he lived understood that sort of business, and were not ex- tremely anxious that he, as one of their should go into an y- thing of that kind now.

 WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Orders were issued by the Navy Department for the United States steamer Kearsarge, now at New York, to proceed at once to As pinwall.
 It is supposed that this action is based upon rumors of a threatened railroad strike at the place. Informa- tion to that effect has been received at the State Department from Consul Gen. eral Atkinson at Panama.
 The latter said he heard the rumors through the consul at Aspinwall, and that he had requested the Columbian authorities to protect American in ter ests in the event of trouble, and had been assured that it would be done,

ANTIQUITY OF SPOONS.

History Shows That They Have Been f.
 Use for Many CenturIes.
 Spoons have been in use for man, centuries; in early times it was tn,
 fashion for all ladies and gentlemen t
 nave their own spoons and spoon-cases
 which they carried with them whereve
 they went. Two hundred years ago W, lind frequent mention in the newsnaner Of "a lost case containing a knife, forl and silver spoon." The spoon was nsu ally described as bearing the crest o the owner upon it's handle. or picture of the Blessed Virgin. The ''apost1e spoons" were a dozen of these silve, implements, each containing an imape Of one of the apostles in relief upon its handle; sometimes with and sometimes without his name. If the name was omitted, there was usually some em, Diem Of the worthy supposed to be represented Qn the spoon. In case emblems we3e used in place of q name, St. Jaines would be attired as z pilgrim; St. Jude was usually pic. tured with club, the emblem oI his martyrdom, or with a boat to show his occupation; St. Simon with a saw because he was sawn asunder, and gen erally with an added oar to show his earlier tastes. The use of these spoons as gifts from god-parents to god-children dates back nearly five hundred years. When the giver was too poor to present the whole twelve, he gave one spoon with the image O the patron saint after whom the child was named, or to whom he was dedicated, or who was the patron saint of the donor, not always in such cases an apostle. The images of the four Evangelists were often thus used. the spoons being called "apostlo spoons" although all were not apostles in the usual meaning of the word Shakespeare, in Henry WILL" when Cranmer declares himself unworthy of being sponsor to the young Princess. makes the King reply: Come, come my lord, you'd spare your spoons" in plain allusion to the gift expected on such occasions. The earliest notice we find in print of this form of spoon is an entry on the book of the Stationers, Company, made in the year 1900. It is this entry; "A spoyne of the gyfte of Master Riginold Wolfe, all gylte, with the pycture of St. John," showing that "apostle spoons" were well known at that early day. "-St Louis Republic
