GUATEMALA'S QUEER HOTEL.
Il 10 Earthquake Proof, and Insects Are
Used TO Call the Guests.

Used TO Call the Guests.
Chicago Tribune.1
'"fhe queerest hotel in the world is in
Guatemala City" said an English tourist,
who is stopping at the Rlchelieu. "While
there few weeks ago stopped day at the
biggest hostelry, and met with more sur
prises than have previously encountered in
my trip around the world. The house is
built only one story high on account of the
earthquakes. 1t is constructed in the form
of a hollow square, and the interior court
isImade beautiful with trees and flowers. The
exterior presents the appearance of q prison.
CATER pounding high knocker on the
outer door you are ushered into a scene Of
verdant beauty. The hotel was formerly
the private residence of one OF the richest
families of Central America, but the owner
was banished by President Barrios for an
alleged conspiracy against the Government.
Around the interior were balconies over
looking q garden filled with orange and
peach trees. palms and beautiful flowers.
The fare was good, and we had our choice
of pancakes. with honey, fish, poultry,
fruits and coffee and chocolate. You.can't
eat there if you are in hurry, though only
one thing is served at time, and you can't
get a cup of coffee until everything else has
been served. The hotel furnishes candles,
but matches are extra.
''Then there is system of calling the
guests which entities the hotel to the name
OF the queerest one on the earth. You are
called by flies. The flies down there are
nearly as large as an English sparrow, and
they sting like hornet, though the bite is
not poisonous. They never kill them, but
brush them away. The halls of the hotel are
filled with these pests in the morning. Over
each door is transom. Now, if you have a
call for o'clock your tYansom is opened at
z, and the flies go in; Do they. wake you?
1 should say so. The sensation is like
that of being sandbagged. In five min
utes from the time your transom is opened
you are downstairs looking for the propri-
etor. 1t doesn't do any good to kick,
though, for that system has been the custom
for wears.

A CORPSE AS SECURITY.
FIGHT A KENTUCKY UNDERTAKES Is
MAKING FOR HIS FEE.

He Wants SIS for Taxing Care of Dead
Boy, and the Father Thinks It's Too
High-The Body I'm Charge of a Con-
stable.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH
CINCINNATI, July ga strange fight
is in progress in Newport KY, over a
corpse. The various turns of this legal
squabble have resulted in number of new
and interesting points being made. The
case involves the possession of corpse for
debt. While on visit in Newsport the
young son of Thomas F. Cassell, a promi-
nent negro lawyer of Memphis, was
drowned. After several days had elapsed
the body was recovered from the river.
This was on last Friday. The corpse was
taken care of by Gus Menninger. an under
taker. 1t was badly decomposed, but he
embalmed and dressed it, and kept the
corpse on ice until the arrival of the boys
father. He arrived in Newport on last
Monday. Cassell sent negro undertaken
named Porter to get the body and ship it.
Menninger refused to allow the corpse to
leave his establishment without the pay
ment of his charges, $35.
This amount Cassells considered exorbi-
tant and refused to pay. He went before
Squire Mclaughlin and replevined the
corpse. Menninger in return sued for $35
and attempted to hold the corpse for security.
This is the perpiexing part Of the case. Cas-
sells attorney argued that there is no market
value on corpse. and that there cannot be
lien upon it for debt no more than doctor
could have on live person for services
rendered.
Squire Mclaughlin was unable to find
any precedent upon which this claim could
be based, and he took the case under advise
ment In the meantime the corpse has been
placed in vault under the charge of a con-
stable, and cannot be shipped to Memphis
for burial until decision is reached.

PARS0N ARNY'S RACES.
THE GOOD MAN DRIVES HIS FLYERS
TO WIN EVERY TIME.

No Disorder Among the Crowds In At
tendance, no Betting mud no Gambling
-ReiIeious Training is a good Thing
for Horses.
SARANAc, MICH, July 26.-"Oh, happy
day that fixed my choice, sang Parson j.
w. Army this morning as he saw that tn e
day for his now world-celebrated races was
to be fair and favorable. At the 10 o'clock
the crowds began to make their way to the
race track, and by 1880 the bleaching
boards and the grand stand were crowded
Everything was quiet and orderly as we'll
regulated church picnic. All the events
were half mile, best two in three.
The first event was the three-mile race.
Each owner drove his ewn, horse. The con-
testants started well together, but Arny's
Amy quickly showed the religious training
she had enjoyed, and she forged forward at
tremendous pace, coming under the wire
in 1909. Parson Army was greeted with
hearty applause, and his little nag
was showered with bouquets and good
words In the second heat Amy again came
off more than conqueror, making the half
mile in ] q. Shout after shout followed this
and the good Parson raised aloft his hands
as though deprecatlng the noise or about to
dismiss the congregation.
However, he thought better of ii, and
the, second race was called. 1t was con-
test between 3-year-olds. and was partici-
pated in by Arny's Bogge and two other
entries. Again the Parsons excellent work
showed itself, Bogge taking the heat in 40.
The second heat and race was won easily by
Bogge IN 1:44. Parson Arny's colt won
the third race, it being walk away.
After the races were concluded athletic
and field sports were participated in and
general good time had. There were no bet
ting on the races or gambling Oh the
grounds. In an interview Parson Army
said that he had been active in getting
the races up because no one else did it and
he wanted it done. As to racing, he was
bound to enjoy it, and was sorry it had been
SO much abused. Good people had never
thought it wrong for him to try his own
speed at foot races while at college, and he
asked why should they object to his trying
the speed of his horses.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. i

PHILADELPHIA, July 26.-The State
chairmen OF both the great parties have
made the first move in the fight by select
ing headquarters from which the ammuni-
ton, in the shape of campaign literature,
will be fired. The Republican headquarters.
at the Continental Hotel. will be opened in
lively way about August 1, while the
Democratic headquarters will open up at
14l6 South Penn square, just as soon as the
building is placed in proper condition.
Chairman Andrews, on the Repub-
lican side has had the experience
of one State campaign, which will be Of
benefit to him, while Congressman Kerr,
who has been chosen as the Democratic
leader, will buckle on his armor tor the first
time in State fight.
The Chairmen Of the State Committees.
who are just now busiiy engaged shaping
their lines for the contest, are keeping very
quiet regarding their intentions, and it
looks as though one is waiting for the other
to "show his hand" Chairman Andrews
has personal, as well as political Interest
in the success of his candidate. Both An
drews and Delamater hail from Crawford
county, and the Republican State Chairman
has been nominated by the Crawford County
Convention ais the candidate to succeed Del
amater in the Senate. For years both have
been in politics together, and Andrews will
leave no stone unturned to make his man a
winner.
Delamater and Andrews left the city
together to-day for Spring Lake. where the
family OF the latter is summering. They
will remain there until Monday, when they
will return here to consult with the local
Republican leaders. While Chairman
Andrews is absent from the city the State
headquarters are in charge of Chief Clerk
John W. Morrison.
Few of the out-of-town Wallace leaders
have put in an appearance in this city
since the Scranton convention was held,
but the local Democratic leaders, who are
on the alert, claim that whatever bad feel
ing existed among the Wallaceites because
of Ex-Governor Pattison's nomination has
since died out, and that the desired harmony
has been secured.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPAfcH1
NoRRISTowN, July 26.-Theodore W.
Bean, prominent candidate for the Repub-
liean nomination in the Seventh Congress
sional district, to-day announced positively
that he declines to be longer regarded as
candidate and withdraws his name from
all consideration before the Republican
Congressional Convention of the district.
1t was known to his friends that be did not
propose to enter into a contest for
the nomination, believing that such
course at this time would be
preiudicial to party interests This
sentiment has been general among his con-
nection, and there has nowhere been any
disposition to insist upon q nomination that
would not be thoroughly acceptable to the
Republicans generally. There are, there
tore, at present but two men in the field for
the Republican nomination for Congress in
this district. Irving p. Wauger and
Charles Heber Clark, and Wanger will
probably be conceded the nomination with
out ballot. He is regarded as the strongest
man of the two for the impending struggles
The names OF Messrs. Young, Bean and
Bosler, for some time before the public,
have been withdrawn at their own request
The voters of the two counties, there
fore, who are asked to select Mr..
Yardley's successor can take their
choice of the two named, or, as is
their undoubted right, can select some one
else from among the available Republicans
OF the district. The delegates election will
occur on Saturday evening, August %, and
the convention to nominate will convene at
Lansdale on the Tuesday following.
The Democrats of the district are awaiting
developments since they are notoriously
deficient in material to make anything
like hopeful canvass. 1t Is gem
orally agreed among them that it
will not do to name Senator Ross, of
Boylestown, who has already been twice
defeated-in 1884 by Hon. 1. e. Newton
Evans, and in 1888 by Hon. Robert NJ.
Yardley-because the custom In the dis
triet reg uires that the office shall be filled
by the coming term by a citizen
of Montgomery county. Besides, Mr..
Ross well-known free trade views render

The Business Mems Educators Associa-
ton held another interesting session. In the
morning paper was read by Mrs. Spencer,
of Washington, D. c., on "The Possibility
of Business College Work" which was fol-
lowed by lively discussson, in which all
took part. The afternoon was devoted
to discussions on arithmetic. In the
morning session Mr. r. E. Gallagher occu-
pied the Chair and Mr.. Byron Horton, OF
New York, acted in similar capacity in
the afternoon. The association is enjoying
the hospitality of the assembly and declare
this the most pleasant gathering place IN
their history.
