CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-Wm. 7. Hunter, q
western stock man, has come to Chicago
for the purpose of forming an association
for benefitting cattlemen in a financial
way. Hunters plans are quite compre-
hensive and will save, he says, the cattle
raisers millions of dollars now eaten up by
the recent low prices and brokers' prof.
its, the real object being competition
against the "Big -Four" and the smaller
packers following in their wake. The
plan is to establish stock yards at con-

the others are ready to 60 to the associa-
ton for terms. t'

A RIVAL of Mother Shipton has arisen at Wichita, Kan, in the person of Mrs V. Quimby, who claims that for two years past she has been making all preparations fer the resurrection of Christ, which she declares will occur November 13. At midnight on the 18th she prophecies all the people on the earth will be destroyed, with the excep- tion of 140,0O0, who are to be the elect mentioned as "The few will be chosen out of the many called" They will be transported to Jerusalem, where King David will reign over them, and whence they will repopulate the earth. Mrs Quimby lives with her son and daughter and all three are believers in this proph- ecy. They have disposed of all their worldly possessions, have made ascen- sion robes. and to-day they stand ready to go at the sound of Gabriers horn. Are you one of the elect?

TEXAS NATURAL WALL.

A Freak of Nature That Has Been the
 Subject of Much Speculation.
 There is in the northern part of Texas, near the Bois d'Arc, or East Fork of the Trinity, a freak of nature that has been the subject of much specula- tion ever since it's discovery, over forty years ago. Extending in a northwest and southeasterly direction for several miles is perpendicular seam or wall of coarse limestone, composed of frag-s ments, irregular in size, yet very simi- lar in shape. The seam tor wall, as it is called) is about two feet in width everywhere it is seen, and the stones of which it is composed are distributed on top of one another, almost with the regularity of masonry-at least as we'll as many ancient builders constructed their walls. It is for the most part under the earth, but appears in hillsides and ravines, where the external forces of nature have worn away the soil, leav ing the natural wall exposed. Old set tiers say that some sections several hundred feet in length appeared as much as three feet in height when they first went there, and hence they named their first town Rockwall, which name is also borne by the county in which GR6 wall IS HrOm the IaCb that no other stone was found in, the immedi- ate vicinity, these pioneers unanimous ly agreed that the wall was the work of some prehistoric people who inhabited the country; but as it's mere resemblance | to the work of man is all that supports this theory, it has long since been given up for the scientific explanation of its | origin. The presence of quartz, lava and I other conglomerate rocks of igneaus origin, 6etrays the action of volcanic | forces in it's formation. Some mighty internal convulsion rent the earth's sur face and left long straight Assure, which was filled by the same agency with fragments of underlying strata of limestone. In some portions where the wall was sufficiently compact, it has stood alonc, while air and water have | worn away the surrounding earth. Thus it is found at intervals, keeping one direction, straight as surveyors line for about six miles, uniform in width, and always composed of stones resembling an elongated brick, some I larger and others smaller.
 Years ago an inquiring well-digger sunk his spade beside the wall. He fol-
 lowed it down thirty feet and found
 abundant water, but not the base of the
 wall So we may concede the work to
 be freak of the fire gods, who, in some past age, remote and dim, pushed up the wall fren beneath to serve as a model for future man.-St Louis Globe Democrat

ROOT AND SAKE.

Waterbury did well for itself and for the democracy of the state, when it elected Charles G. Root and John L. Sake to the legislature. The contempti' ble republican circular which was sent out to injure MT Roots chances with the Catholic portion of the community proved boomerang, and the booby who gave life to the scheme should bury his head. The interests of the city are in good hands and will be well cared for Should the revision of our city charter be brought before the legislature such 6 man as Mir Root will be invaluable in seeing that it is properly done and that the best interests of the city and its people are conserved in the revision Our representatives will be credit tC the city and an honor to them"elves.

WE are inclined to sympathize with the Memphis chief of police who has sued local newspaper for damages be- cause the paper called him republican and "plumed knight in office." Any sensible jury ought to give the plaintiff a verdict on that statement of the case. We cannot conceive of anything more calculated to injure an honest mans reputation than to call him a republican and plumed knight, when we reflect upon the present decadence of the party of imperialism.

WHAT TT MEANS.

The sweeping. democratic victories throughout the land augur we'll for the success of the party in '92. There ap- pears to have been spontaneous upris- ing of indignant citizens. The Mckinley bill, the Force bill, and speaker Reeds disgusting tactics in congress, all helped to swell the democratic vote, and the aid of powerful glass is required to see W hat the republicans have saved out of the general wreck. The party organs have little to say, except that this is an off year and they expected to meet with considerable opposition. To our mind the elections mark the beginning of 6 new era in the history of the democratic party. It is the peoples party.

WASHINGTON, Nov. GA member of the Cabinet is authority for the statement that the President will not call an extra session of Congress. The fir of December comes on Monday, and Congress will meet in regular session on that day. There is no urgency demanding an extra session, it is stated on the same authority, and the reasons that were potent in suggest ing it several weeks ago do not hold now Only four weeks remain before the regu- lar session begins, and members of Con gress from distant States could hardly arrive here in time for a session if one were called.

STANLEY ia HERE.
The Great ExplsrsR and His Wife Arrive
 This Morning.

ThAg Morning.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-The Teutonic of the White Star line reached Quarantine at :43 last night. Henry M. Stanley, the African explorer was among the pas sengers. The vessel reached the dock early this morning and the explorer was met by large party of friends and es- corted to his hotel.
 Mir. Stanley is accompanied by a valet and courier, his wife and her mother, Mrs. Remnant, and their maid; Hamilton Aide, the dramatist, who will be the historian of the party, and Lieut.. J. Mounteney Jephson, one of the great travellers favorite officers.
 Mir. Stanley's first public appearance in this country will be at the reception at the Metropolitan Opera House next Tuesday evening, when he will deliver his lecture on "The Rescue of Emin; the Forests, Pigmies, and the March Across Africa" for the benefit of the Home for Convalescents at Summit, N. J.
 The reception will-be a noteworthy affair. A committee of 300 men known in science, art, literature, finance, and politics will extend to him greeting and of course the great opera house will be crowded with the wealth, beauty and fashion of the city.
 Additional interest attaches to Mir. Stanley's arrival at this time in view ol the answers to his charges against Major Barttelot, of the rear guard, which have been made since he sailed. All Europe is anxious to know how MT. Stanley will reply, or whether he will condescend to reply at all.

LEARNING A LESSON.

Two Women Who Thought It the Prope'
 Thing to Find Fault.
 Two well-dressed women hustled into one of tho numerous ladies' restaurants of the shopping district day or two ago, and after rejecting several tables that wore offered to them as they passed through the room, finally found satis- factory places in well-lighted corner. They were important and f1nical from tho first. At tho beginning of tho meal one found her spoon sticky and the other thought her napkin damp, and so on-all valid ground for complaint, per haps, except that the manner of crit icism and the general effect of the critics were of nature to arouse the suspicion that the restaurant table and service were equal, if not superior, to those associated with tbe home ma hogany.
 A very civil and patient waiter, how over, managed to smooth the frequently wrinkled rose leaves of the repast until its end. While gloves were being drawn on preparatory to departure one of the pair, the larger and presumably the more belligerent, signaled to the waiter with portentous nod. He was at her side in an instant, tearing of check Ah ht dppEOdShVU
 ''Yes," the diner said as he reached her, 'I want my check, but I want also to ask" and her voice was easily heard two or three tables distant, "where the chef of this establishment gets his gar. uish leaves-out of the refuse pail?"
 The waiter, amazed, followed the di- rection of her glance, and sure enough, there on the croquette dish, with the small wisp of green remaining, was a hit of potatO parinp.
 Seeing the effect she had produced the speaker continued: "Send the su perintendent to me, please" with ( really overwhelming air of reserve force. But the waiter was forestalled The superintendent, who had already taken observations, approached. HC was small, keen-eyed and suave.
 A few words from her majesty put hin in possession of the facts of the case While she was speaking his trained per captions were making some accurate es inmates When she b ad finished he wa ready.
 Tam very sorry.' he began with bow, "that the Kitchen should hay been so careless. Madam may be sur 1t will not go unreprimanded. But, he added with lower bow, his glanc just indicating the we'll swept tabl before him, II am very glad that Madam has not allowed the blunder to interior with her appetite" .....--...
 So he moved away. It was imperti nent, of course, but "Madam's'' pom posity and tardy complaint had raEhe invited 1t, and the subdued smile on tw or three faces as the pair withdrew without further comment, was not ur pardonable. Undoubtedly, however that restaurant has lost patron. ---N Y. Times.

PLEADING FOR sfRcHALL.
His Wife Burst Into Tears While Pre-.
 senting Rer Petition.

senting Rer Petition.
 OTTAWA, Ont, Nov. 6.-Mrs. Birchall waited on Sir John Thompson, Minister of Justice, and pleaded for executive clemency on behalf of her husband now under sentence of death in Woodstock jail.
 She was accompanied by MT. Me Murchy, solicitor, and her sister Mrs, West-Jones. She was visibly affected as she made her plea for mercy Mir. Nc Murchy addressed the Minister with great force and dwelt upon every salient point for the defense. He said that all the evidence add4ced was circumstantial and that there was no positive proof that BirchaH was seen going toward the swamp with Benwell, except one witness who was not positive or reliable in his evidence. Further, he submitted that BirchalFs subsequent action of remain ing in the country for more than week after the corpse was found, went to prove his innocence. He asked that a most careful and solemn consideration should be given to the matter.
 Mrs. Birchall then stepped forward and presented the petition signed by about 5000 persons. She said she believed in her husbands innocence and that time would show how true this was. Her life, she said, would be blighted and two honorable families ruined.
 At this point in her appeal the unfor- tunate lady burst into tears, and covering her face with her hands sank back into a chair.
 Sir John Thompson was visibly affected. He said he felt deep sympathy for Mrs. Birchall, and that he would give careful attention to the statement of Mir. Nc Murchy and the contents of the petition. Mrs. Birchall then took her leave, and accompanied by her friends returned to the hotel.
 Very little hope is entertained in off cial circles that the clemency of the Grown will be extended to Birchall.
