That Beautiful Lamn.

With the return of the lamp to fashion
able society has come, in some of the great
cities, new occupation for intelligent
women. The average servant does not
understand the management of the beauti-
full and somewhat intricate lamps which
are now seen in every well-furnished house.
She will break the elegantly decorated
globe or bedaub with oil the delicate silk
Shade She will spoil the thread by
wrenching with her untutored hands. She
will put in wick too small and provoke
an explosion, or will crowd in a wick too
large and clog the delicate wheels. She
will leave them untitled at critical time,
or she will fill them while standing in
their places upon the library table and
perfume the table scarf with the surplus
oil. She will do everything that she
should not do, and leave undone much
that should be done. All this trouble has
given place TO the professional artist, who
knows and appreciates the artistic excel
lence of the elegant lamp and cares for it
as it should be cared for. She is, in many
cases, one "who has seen better days" and
who is obliged to resort to some honorable
occupation for livelihood. She contracts
with private families to care for their par
lor lamps by the week or by the month,
and she comes daily, or as often as is neces-
sary, to perform her task. She has studied
lamps as carefully as the veterinarian has
studied horses, and she understands all
their ailments snd all their needs and re-
quirements, and those who put their lamps
in her charge are sure to find them al always
shining and always trimmed, if, like those
of the wise virgins, they are not always
burning.

that occurred shortly after the train left
Galesburg. At that station woman with
baby got on the train. She was coming
to Chicago and from there intended TO
journey to Mexico to meet her husband.
Her name was not learned. A few miles
from Galesburg the train was running at
high rate of speed. The woman was seated
about the center of a coach and had her
face close to a window, when freight
train bound for Galesburg came along just
on the opposite track. 1t was running at
the rate of twelve miles an hour and the
passenger train was laundering by at a
forty-mile clip.
The roar of the passing cars and the
shaking of the roadbed loosened from its
fastenings door on the side of freight car,
snd it fell outward and struck the window
through which the unknown woman was
peering. The corner of the thick door
struck her full in the face with crushing
force. Her features. were smashed into a
pulp her skull fractured and the back part
of her brains exposed. She died Instantly
The train was stopped, and the body of the
poor mother and the crying child were
taken back TO Galesburg.

A Bride of but Few Hours Takes Her
Own Life.
REDWOOD Cry, October 5th-A sensa-
tional suicide occurred here this morning.
Last night Louise Esslinger was married 10
George Wehrlin. This morning she was
found dead in bed.
The marriage took place at the residence
of q. Groner, uncle of the bride, and was
attended by a large number of friends.
During the festivities, none seemed hap
pier than the bride, who was handsome
German girl, % years of age. When the
guests were retiring she grew hysterical,
but this was not considered of much con-
sequence by her friends.
At o'clock, she and her husband went
to their residence, pretty cottage recently
purchased and furnished by the groom.
She refused to allow him TO enter her room,
and after demonstrating in vain, he was
compelled to return to the residence of Mr..
Groner TO pass the remainder of the night.
On again entering the house, at 6 O'Clock,
he was Mortified TO find his wife lying un-
conscious in bed. Her wedding garments
and bridal wreath were scattered about the
room in disorder. A physician was hastily
summoned, but pronounced life extinct.
The unfortunate girl LETT no letter to tell
why she wished TO end her life. On the
floor near the bed was found a piece of
paper crumpled up, aud in the bed were
some grains of crystal substance, proba-
bly, poison, the nature of which has not yet
been certainly determined.
Miss EssliDger has been in Redwood City
six weeks, and was engaged to Wehrlin
only four weeks. 1t is said she was anxious
to have the wedding FASTENED, but as the day
approached she became despondent, and at
times acted as though not in her right
mind. From remarks frequently made by
her, it is surmised that former lover in
Portland, Or, proved false to her. Her
husband is well nigh heart. broken. The
funeral and inquest will take place to.

From Entering the United States.

From Entering the United states.
SAN Francisco, October 5th.-The reve-
nue. cutter Oliver Wolcott was noted as
having sailed from Victoria for Behring
Sea on the 26th ult. To-day a reporter
learned that the Wolcott has certainly
sailed for Sitka, and intends making
cruise of surveillance in and out of Alaska,
terminating in tour through Behring Sea.
1t came to the knowledge of the Govern
ment a short time since that a feet of
piratcal Canadian sealers had fixed upon
Behring Sea as winters sealing ground.
1t was decided to send the cutter Wolcott
to Behring Sea to intercept the poachers.
But the detecting and possible seizing of
some or the Canadian sealers is one of the
smallest items in the mission outlined for
the Wolcott. She has also been instructed
to exercise close surveillance of the can
merry stations and other Alaskan points,
with view of detecting Chinese trying to
smuggle themselves into the United States.
Since the vigilance of the customs officers
along the northern border have bagged big
patches of Celestials who sought TO cross
from British Columbia, the Chinese have
commenced to operate a new method
of getting into the country through
are assisted BY the owners of small
vessels at Victoria and other British Colo
NAL ports, who take them to Alaska and
manage to elnde the few customs inspect
ors. Arrived there, the Chinese either 60
down the coast under guise of fishermen
returning from the canneries, or land from
chartered schooners at coast points offering
easy means to reach the interior.
After a preparatory cruise about the
Alaskan coast for the purposes mentioned,
the Wolcott will proceed to Behring Sea
and intercept Canadian poachers. Orders
have been given to seize any vessel found
sealing in the closed seas.

NEW YORK, October 5th in an interview
in the Tribune, Sir James Ketson, Presi-
dent of the Iron and Steel Institute of
Great Britain, says; The industrial condi-
ton of Great Britain is now remarkably in
dustrious. The price of coal is higher
than it has been Tor years, and the de-
mand for export is continually increasing.
This has enabled the miners to obtain an
advance in wages of from thirty 10 fifty
per cent above two years ago. The de-
mand for pig iion for export has
been in excess of the production. and
the enormous stocks in Glasgow, Middles-
borough and West Hartlepool are now
being materially diminished, 1 think your
new tariff bill is calculated TO diminish the
deliveries of English manufactured goods

One of the Contestants Almost Beaten to
Mince Meat.
CHICAGO, October 5lh.-One of the most
brutal fistic encounters ever witnessed in
this vicinity took place early this morning
in barn near Shelby, Indiana, between
Tommy Ruan of Grand Rapids, the light
weight champion of Michigan, and Con.
Doyle, a local pugilist of Chicago, weighing
137 and 1876 pounds respectively. The fight
was to finish, with two ounce gloves, for
a purse of $500, Queensberry rules.
The battle was for blood from the start
Ruan, who was evidently the most scien-
tiiic Of the two, managed to avoid Doyle's
heavy left handlers, and in turn hammered
the Chicago boys face and breast almost to
mince meat. At the end of the twenty
seventh round it was evident that Doyle
was used up, but nevertheless he wanted
to fight further. Despite the fact that his
eyes were closed, he staggered to the CEN
ter of the ring almost crazy and insisted on
fighting it out rough and tumble. His Sec
ond threw up the SPONGE however, and
Ruan was declared the winner.

New Complications Arising Which May
Result in War.

New York, October 5th.-A Herald Qua
temala special says new and very serious
trouble exists between Guatemala and Sal
vador, which may lead to renewal of war.
1t was agreed, when the preliminary treaty
of peace was signed, that the prisoners cap
tured in battle should be exchanged. A
short time ago Salvador requested Barrillas
to fulfill this condition, but Barrillas was
unable to comply with the request because
during the war. One hundred and eighteen
were shot on one occasion. Ezeta was
aware of the fact, but in a polite note in
sisted on the execution. This trouble has
afforded Miner new opportunity to inter-
yene, and it is stated on good authority
that ne has left for Salvador, taking with
him the Spanish Charge Afaires.

No Truth in the Story of Louis Beisant
Being Robbed.

Being Robbed.
SAN Francisco, October 5th.-The police
here express some amusement at the dis
patch telegraphed from New York last
night, stating that Louis Beisant, young
medical student from Paris, had been
swindled out of fortune of $4,000 by
Blanche Richardson, scheming American
girl, and graduate of Vassar. Two weeks
ago a woman who has an unpronounceable
French name, and who speaks but very
little English, arrived in this city and has
since been an inmate of house of bad
repute.
Soon after her arrival, Chief Crowley
received a telegram from Detective Fuller,
of New York, to locate the woman and
keep her under surveillance. He did so,
and ascertained the facts stated. Beisant
is also in this city, and has resumed his
former relations with her.
The police say that instead of being a
medical student, he belon IS to class Of
men who are supported by fallen women,
and that the only foundation for the story
is the circumstance that the woman left
New York before him, and carried of his
life insurance policy in her trunk.
