Ex-senator Palmer Unanimously Chosen
by the Commissioners.
CHICAGO, June est was almost fore
gone conclusion as to who the state COM
missioners of ftheWorld's fair would choose
for their chairman when they met yester-
day. Mr.. Depew was absolutely out of
the race and the only other man men,
toned was ex-senator Palmer. The Or
ganization committee made a partial re-
port recommending the appointment of a
president of the Worlds Columbian expo
sition, five vice presidents, the first to be
of opposite politics to the president, and
the rest equally divided, and a secretary.
President and Secretary Elected.
The report was adopted and then al
most everybody present nominated Thom-
tion was indorsed unanimously. The
next business attended to was the choice
of permanent secretary, and with equal
unanimity John Il. Dickinson, of Texas,
was chosen. Some routine business was
then transacted and the commissioners
adjourned. Last night they were ele-
gantly entertained by Mrs. Potter Palmer
at her beautiful castle home on the Lake
Shore drive
The national commissioners met Satur-
day and elected the following vice presi-
dents: Thomas w. Waller, of Connecticut,
first; M. II. De Young of Califoria, Sec
ond; Davidson b. Penn, of Louisiana,
third; G. w. Allen, of New York, fourth;
A. b. Andrews, of North Carolina fifth.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, June 30.-A great

speaker of the house of representatives of
this state. Mr.. Miller leaves wife and

Alone In Telegraph Station She LIS yis-
tied by Burglar-With Revolver In
One Hand She Stands Him or" While
with the Other She Teiegraphs for Help
Which Promptly Comes-The Villain
Escapes.
ERIE, Pa, June 9O.-Nfiss Ida Wakely,
the handsome young telegraph operator at
Swanville station on the Nickel Plate rail-
road is the heroine of terribly thrilling
encounter Saturday night When Miss
Wakely took the position at the little out
of-the-way country station she realized the
dangers to which she would be exposed
from the horde of nomads who follow the
road from east to west, and not only
armed herself, but practiced until she be-
came an expert with the pistol.
A Burglar Attacks the Station.
Shortly after midnight, and at an hour
when there were but few trains, the young
woman heard some one at the door, and q
second later a villainous face appeared at
the window. The fellow demanded ad-
mittance, and was refused, whereupon he
came back with large lump of coal and
threw it against the lights, and then made
a dash for the opening.
The Scoundrel Held at Bay.
Just then Miss Wakely pulled her re-
volver and ordered the villain to retreat He
stopped to parley, saying, "You wouldn't
Shoot" and just then the brave young
woman took deliberate aim. The burg
lar read her face and withdrew his head
from the opening in fhe window, but did
not leave. While the young woman held
at bay the desperado, who drew knife,
she used the other hand to call the next
station where a train was side-tracked
and to her Joy, after a long while, she
caught the operator whom she informed
of her dilemma.
A Party to the Rescue.
The engine was detached and with the
crew aboard ran to the young woman's
rescue. While the crew was coming to
the young woman's rescue the burglar
tried to induce her to hand out the con-
tents of the safe and made blood-curdling
threats, but when the engine with the
crew turned a sharp curve the burglar ran
away in time to escape lynching. The
night of terror was too much for Miss
Wakely and when relieved she fell in a
dead faint.

A Com promise.

End of the strike ON the Illinois Central
"A Compromise.
CHICAGO, June 2S.-The trains on the
Illinois Central railway began running
again yesterday afternoon and matters
are "altitudinous" once more. The men
held long meeting after dinner yester-
day during which the last proposition of
the railway was discussed, and concluded
to accept it. Those on the inside say the
decision would have been the other way
had it not been for the fact that the men
were advised that under the circumstances
they would not receive the moral or finan-
cial support of the great labor organiza-
tions.
Conditions of the Compromise.
1t all hinged on Mr.. Russell, and in his
case the company receded somewhat. He
will not be permitted to directly dis
charge any of the men; all matters of that
kind must be attended to by his subordin-
ates. Also the two men who resigned are
to go back to their places.
Cost Of the Amusement.
The cost of the STRIFE to the Illinois Gen.
tral railroad has been in the neighborhood
Of 5000 On the first day they lost
$500, 900, and the balance on an average of
almost $100,000a a day. The strike lasted

known that he is stranded in this city;
that his arrest was authorized by nobody,

THE CENSUS MONTH ENDED.
Superintendent Porter Congratulated by
Professor Walker.

Professor Walker.
WASHINGTON CITY, July Yesterday
the period for taking the census ended.
BY coincidence it was also the birthday
of Superintendent Porter. Among other
pleasant incidents of the day was letter
of congratulation from Professor Francis
A. Walker, the superintendent of the last
census. He expressed the opinion that
the census just closed was a great success.
Mr. Porter says that information received
from all portions of the country indicates
that the work has been going along, and
that there has been no serious hitch.
Ninety Per Cent. Com mpleted.
Mr.. Porter estimated that of the $4,000
enumeration districts into which the
country is divided, 80 per cent. have been
completed. The returns are not yet in,
even of the cities and towns where the
census taking practically was ended the
18th of June. But they are retained by
the supervisors so as to make all necessary
changes, and when fully completed are
sent to the census Office, where the rough
count is in progress.

Varieties of fungi, or toadstools, as
they are popularity called, which give
out light in dark place have been re-
ported from Australia and other parts of
the world. The appearance of this in
teresting growth, as seen in Brazil, is de-
soribed 10y an English naturalist.
One dark night, about the beginning
of December, while passing along the
streets, | observed some boys amusing
themselves with some luminous object,
which l at first supposed TO bea kind of
large freely, but, on making inquiry,
found it to be a beautiful phosphorescent
fungus, and was told that it grew abund-
antly in the neighborhood, on the decay
ing leaves of dwarf palm. Next day
obtained a great many specimens, and
found them TO vary from one inch to two
inches and half across.
The whole plant gives out at night a
bright, phosphorescent light, of a pale
greenish hue, similar to that emitted by
the larger fireflies, or by the curious soft
bodied marine animals. The light given
out by few of these fungi, in dark
room, was sufficient to read by.-Youth's s
