The King Of Dahomey.

The king of Dahomey is a man Of edu-
cation and accomplishments. he was
reared in Paris, and much money was
spent and careful attention lavished
upon his instruction. But in an evil
hour he fell in love with a Partisan beau
ty, and because she would not have him
the young man made up his mind that
the life of barbarian was preferable to
that Of civilized and enlightened be-
ing. he bade eternal adieu, therefore,
to the classics, the arts and the sciences,
and zealously set himself to the pursuit
Of a barbarian career. His most remark
able reform as king Of Dahomey was to
surround himself with bodyguard of
strapping women, regular amazons who
rode horseback man fashion, used the
bow and spear and welded ysss Dattie
az with singular dexterity. His majesty
has a theory that these women are bet

Insreetion Of summer Resorts.

In choosing resort for summer one
does not omit questions as to how far it
is to church or station, whether6 o'clock
dinner is served or there are spring mat
tresses ON each couch-matters Of jrst
interest and comfort. But add such per-
tinent inquiries as these: Do you serve
oatmeal or cracked wheat for breakfast?
Can have brown bread and fruit three
times o day? Have You q water filter in
good condition? How far is the well or
the water supply from the cesspool and
drainst And last, but not least, have
you well ventilated earth closet? All
boarding houses and summer resorts
should be visited monthly by sanitary
inspector with power to enforce neces-
sary improvements for the health Of in
mates. The Catskills and the north
shore demand supervision in this way

Lost His Clothes,

A well known young calico jerker for
q dry goods house in this city secured q
bewitching bathing costume from below
few days ago, and privately informed
few Of the boys that he was going up
the creek to "wet it" on the following
night, and that was just where he was
wrong. Whether the boys were jealous
or whether they objected to the devia-
tion from long established rules OF Chico
swimming holes we cannot determine;
at any rate they laid for their comrade
when he appeared in his gay pink and
white costume.
The wetting was all right, but when
he came in out of the wet he found to his
horror that his store clothes had disap-
peared, and all search was unavailing.
He sat around bewailing his fate, and
finally struck for home just as he was.
The boys, though, had posted mum
ber of the urchins of the burg, and when
he hove in sight of one of the well trav.
eled streets twenty kids, real live Amer
ican kids, hailed him with rich vocab

II Was the Fireman Who killed En-.
gineer Vandevander.

VAN VERT, July H.-The inquest as
to the cause of the mysterious death OF
Engineer Madison Vandevander was
brought to q sudden termination this
evening by a full confession of the
crime by the fireman, Samuel Rhod-
house, who gave out the story Of at
tempted train robbery at the time
merely to shield himself. He made the
confession to sheriff Shoemaker and
said that he killed Vandevander in
self-defense. He said that Vande-
wander accused him of reporting him
for being drunk and when he told him
that he could prove that such was not
the case, he grew angry and they had a
quarrel at Franklin just before they
started on the fatal trip. At Enter
prise, south of the city, Vandevander
made threat to fix him, and fearing
the engineer, he placed the hammer
where he could reach it in case Of an
emergency. Just before reaching Van
Vert, Vandevander, who was very
powerful man, struck him a blow on
the side of the head, knocking him
down. "When ] arose,n he said "he
struck me again. As l fell cut my
head where said yesterday the robbers
hit me. Seeing that Vandevander was
desperate, l grabbed the hammer,
clinched 1t with both hands and
brought It down on his head with all
the force / could command. Vande-
wander staggered and 1 rained several
more blows on his head until I had him
insensible. I then shut off the engine
and laid him on the seat where he was
found. / scarcely realized what l had
done, and thinking Of the heavy load
of passengers we had on, I looked well
out ahead for danger. l intended to
let the train run down. We passed
the depot all right and went over the
Pennsylvania road crossing. Just then
Vandevander raised his head and at.
tempted to get up and dealt him an
other blow, burying the head Of the
hammer In his brain. Just then we
struck the switch engine and the rest YOU
know" Rhodhouse was taken quietly
from the hotel to the jail and placed be-
hind the bars before 1t was known thai
he had confessed. A large crowd prin
cipally of railroad men who had come
to attend the dead mans funeral, which
took place to-day, assembled and the
number gradually increased until fully
thousand surrounded the poorly con
structed Jail. 1t would have taken on
ly word to have caused rush but tn,
word was not given, and at o'clocl
this morning everything is quiet.

A WIDOWS SOLlCITUDE.
An Excellent Story Told by Barnum, tho
Great Show Man.

SnOW-Man'
II saw q strange sight onco going to
show tho strength of woman's grief
for her dead husband" said MIR. BAR
mum in ono Of his afternoon chats to q
Chicago Tribune reporter.
Tho man had been an invalid SO long
that no was helpless. Ho lived in tho
mountains OF Vermont. His wife went
with linn everywhere, anu, as tho at
moSphere in that region was always
moist, tho vito insisted that her invalid
husband should mover go OUT without
his top coat and pair of buck mitts on
his hands. No matter whore those
people wcro seen tho man was attired
for cold weather.
"IIo died. attended tho funeral. A
lady who was present called my atten-
ton to something under tho shirt-front
OF tho corpse. closer investigation
showed that tho object was tho top coat
which tho poor follow had worn SO
much in his lifetime. Tho lady asked
tho widow why she had put tho coat
there and hor reply was that he hadn't
gono anywhere without it for years and
she couldn't think OF his not having It.
The casket was placed in q receiving
vault When 1T arrived there It was
again opened for last look. Tho
widow was seon to linger about the body
for several minutes, engaged in some
thing, no ono could see what. Thon tho
casket was closed and placed in tho re-
ceptaclo. Aswo were being driven homo
tho widow remarked to her lady friend
to whom sho had spoken about the coat:
i feel bettor now, for got his mitts in
tho coffin before it was closed: Ho had
worn Thorn 80 much that couldn't think
OF his boing without them
Tho poor woman was SO sincere
about all this that 1t was somo years be-
fore l could got my consent to think
that tho sad situation had o humorous

THE CONVENTIONAL AMEND.

lottc !, and many persons believed,
Rn| still believe, that that was the
principal obieoS OF the haste mani
testod in placing the proposed amend
ments be.ore the people by calling a
special election ut an expense to the
State Vi nearly $4,000. AS is we'll
kpown the lottery amendment was
defeated ut She polls; but it seems
the promo .o.rs of tho scheme are not
discouraged, for e. D. Boyle, a Sem
ator from Storey county, who favored
the c-ll:ng Of the special election, has
instituted proceedings to Test the va
lidity of the spso.al election on the
ground that the legislature exceeded
its authority in au saor,3ing the cleo
tors registered in 1883 to vote in 1889.
Section 1896, General Statutes, pro-
Vidos as follows:
"rhe electoral year shall commence
on the first day oi january and end
ON the thirty-nist day Of December of
each year. Whenever IN the Same
electoral year there shall be held in
Lny t0TnSh. p moro than one election,
general, Special, or municipal, any
lIrson reg isLereu for anyone of such
elect ons shall be deemed registered
for all subsequent elections in the
Same year"
1t may scom littlo strange that
Senator VINO favored the calling Ct
the special election should now seek
TO have said election set aside by the
Supreme Court, but in view of the
fact that in case tho election should
be declared void the amendments will
DO again submitted to the people at
tho general election on tho 4th day of
next November, with the hope that
sufficient influence NAV be brought
to bear to have tho lottery amend
mont adopted by tho people, the OBJ
ject OF tho present proceedings is ap-
parent. II the Supreme Court should
decide that the special election was
not valid because the electors had
not registered in the year in which
it was hold, or for any other reason,
then tho proposed amendments, the
lottery amendment included, will be
submitted to the people at the next
goDernl election, and If ratified the
promoters Of the lottery scheme will
