An Experiment wien . Bride.

A bridal couple took our train
from Buffalo for Philadelphia, and it was
generally remarked that they conducted
themselves as we'll as could expected un-
der the circumstances. After about four
hours ride the groom got off at station
where short stop was made, saying to
the bride that he wanted to speak to a
man, but saying to one of the boys on the
quiet:
"When the train starts I'll get into the
car behind and she'll think was left.
Then look out to see her 60 into fits. Pill
appear on the scene in time to prevent
consequences"
The programme was carried out. As the
train started drummer rushed into the
car and pumped himself down beside the
bride without question, and in five min
utes he was talking about the weather,
Buffalo, Philadelphia and dozen other
things. She grew interested at once, and
did not even appear to think of her newly
made husband The latter waited quar-
ter of an hour, and then sneaked into the
car. He expected to find her dead with
anxiety, but she wasn't. She was talking
in very animated way, and when he
came forward she looked up and said: :.
@That you, james? I thought you were
left. Sit down back there somewhere"
And for two hours he "sot," while that
drummer held the fort. and everybody was
tickled to death.-Nsp York Sun.

SILVER CORNER.
The Government Forced to Buy tn
Metal In London.

The Government Forced to Buy the
Metal in London.
NEW YORK, May 10tn.-A special from
Washington says thatsthe statement has
been made during the last two or three
days that a corner in silver has been con-
summated in New York.
This uncertainty with regard to silver
legislation has helped the manipulators
greatly. The Government is now COM
PEELED to bring silver from England.
The amount of silver held by New
Workers is estimated by some at SAC, 0O0, 600
in bullion and certificates, but conservative
accounts place the total bullion at $4,000
900.
While these figures would cover the bull
lion, it may be increased several millions
by silver certificates. 1t is fac. that the
Government has been compelled to buy
silver in London, and to complete the deal
the New York people have been keeping
even with the Government in purchases
abroad.
They have for the most part covered the
market in London. 1t is also a fact that
the silver offered by the Government at the
ASSAY office in New York has been at q
premium.
Director of the Mint Leach this morning
did not deny the rumors of the corner. but
said that no silver was ever offered the
Government in New York; that it had
bought bullion in London and was storing
it in the assay Office at New York. 1t is
also storing what silver it had in the West
and issuing certificates.

CHICAGO LABoRERs.
The Old Bosses are Fighting the New
Ones.

The Old Bosses are Fighting the New
Ones.
CHICAGO, May 10th.-The old Master
Carpenters Association, which refused to
take part in the arbitration proceedings
with the striking carpenters, is making a
strong fight to secure men. 1t is FORM
ing union of non-union men in opposi-
ton to the regular union, and has agents
at various points in this country and Can
ada endeavoring to get men.
The Carpenters Council has secured the
presence here of a Government agent to
look out for Canadian carpenters imported
under contract, and have pickets oct watch
ing all contracts in the hands of all the
associations.
The new bosses association is receiving
daily accessions to its ranks and nearly all
the union carpenters are at work.
The old Masters Association is making a
strong fight on the new bosses, having
made arrangements with dealers in lumber
and other supplies, by which the new
bosses cannot secure material except for
cash, while the old masters get thirty to
sixty days time. This will cripple many
of the small bosses seriously.
The old association has also decided to
bid for all contracts in competition with
the new bosses at prices which will allow
little or no profit.
The Union carpenters will rely chiefly
upon their ability to call out other build
ing trades from jobs where non. Union men
are employed. and upon keeping the car
penters from accepting service under the
old bosses. In view of all these things, it
would seem that the eight-hour fight is
only just begun in this city.

tonight that the papers locating the site

the report was premature. At the Treas
ury Department no definite information on
the matter was obtainable.

given a vacation of ten days each year,
with no deduction of pay.
Reddy seconded it.

leave of absence he should be paid extra
for the time not taken.
Sonntag opposed the suggestion, because
he wanted the men to take rest. He
finally referred it to General McComb for
us UplulOu
McComb did not approve of the vacation
and the motion was lost.

from the rules of the Huntington and
Joliet prisons, regarding the conduct of
guards as to entering saloons and drinking
intoxicating liquor within two miles of the
prison, and other rules of behavior, and
moved that they be adopted.

HENRI ROCHEFORT.
He Says that General Boulanger's Star
Has Fallen.


Has Fallen.
LONDON, May 10th.-Henri Rochefort
was interviewed to-day and said that
Boulanger's star had fallen forever. The
only hope for the success of the party is in
its severance from Boulanger and his cause
A new party may be formed in which the
General might be an honorary member,
but he can never again be leader. Roch-
effort said he had little hope of his ever re-
turning to France. He should make no
effort to do so in defiance of law, and as
things now stood it would not do 10 sue
for pardon. If the Government choose to
grant remission of the Ubiquitous SEN
tence pronounced against him, he might
avail himself of the opportunity to return.
As it was, he was contented here. He had
learned to like England and the English,
and he might yet apply for papers of
naturalization.
Rochefert continues to edit Paris paper
from London, and contributes to various
other publications in France. His literary
activity is extraordinary.
Many of his enemies continues to re-
ceiye and feel his barbed arrows shot from
afar.
Sarah Bernhardt writes that she is con-
fined to her hotel by a rheumatic affection
caused by constantly kneeling in the play
of Joan of Arc" Rochefort remarks that
it goes against the constitution of Bern
hardt to bend the knee.

that the most extensive flood ever known
in Australia occurred on the 18th ult. by
1t was from the floods in the river Darling
which had been menacing the country,

the water is up to a mans waist and the

The men worked night and day to save
the levee after the first break, and they
may be able to prevent further ruptures.
No loss of life is reported but the loss of
property will amount to thousands of
pounds. At Whengarai the floods have

1t is Spoiled by a Heavy Cold Rain
Incidents,


LONDON, May 10th.-A heavy cold rain
spoiled the Queens drawing-room yester-
day from an outdoor point of view. As
regard numbers, the drawing-room was
great success, there being over three hun
dred presentations, and there was superb
display of natural flowers. One fashiona-
BILE florist near Cavendish square made up
more than one hundred bouquets at an av-
erage cost of five guineas each.
Minister and Mrs. Lincoln. being in
mourning, did not attend the drawing
room, the Minister himself being in fact
far away from London. Henry White, as
Charge dAfairs, and his wife acted for
them, and did their work as though to the
manor born. Mrs. White wore remark
able dress made up of old cloth of gold
embroidered with flowers of different col
ors and train of heliotrope velvet-lined
with green satin. The dress has history.
1t was worn by one of the ladies of the
French court at the marriage of the Dau-
phin, afterward Louis XVI, to Marie An
toinette in ITO, since which it has been in
the hands of the original wearer's family
until week or two ago.
