TOO RESPECTFUL.

he says he loves me ardently, yet he
OF this sweet thought goes far to disabuse
me,
When, II by accident he touches me,
He murmurs anxiously: "Oh! pray, excuse
me-"
And when we waltz, why should he use such
art
That / scarce feel his claspi And what CON-
pels him
To beg for "pardon," IL against my heart
Some whirling couple recklessly impels him'
And when in crowded seats we take our place,
And Fate, by his dear side has close bestowed
me,
Why should he try so hard to give me space.
And mourn the fact that ne must "discom-
mode me-"
OF course he loves me, for he seems to be
Never Of petits soins tired or neglectful;
But, rs I'm fond Of him, dear me! dear me!
l wish he'd be little Tess respectful.

working for reaction, as the greater por-

square their accounts as yet. The intiu-
ence Of Union Pacific was not apparent In
the market this morning, but the
derbilts were the leading shares.
The Nickel Plate stocks, Canada Southern
and few other specialties made the most
pronounced gains, but the majority OF the
active stocks were rather sluggish under
the pressure of the bear element, aided by
some selling of the London favorites for for
eign account, but more decided strong
tone was shown later in the day when the
pressure to sell was abated somewhat. The
market continued to show the greatest
irregularity throughout the movements OF
the different stocks, but prices, were kept
within narrow limits on the whole, and the
market closed active and Arm, generally at
Insignificant changes for the day, with
losses the more numerous. Sales, AUS 40

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July IA H. H.
Yard was brought into the common
pleas court this morning on an at
tachment for contempt in refusing to
obey an order of the court directing
Yard to appear before the city coun-
Gil investigating committee and an
swer questions regarding his connec-
ton with transactions of the Keystone
National bank and with City Treas
urer Bardsley. The case was contin-
ued until Saturday, when it will be
brought before Allison, Riddle and
Brady. Yard was placed under $500
bond to appear on that day. Yard is
at present under $1,000 bail on a charge
OF conspiracy with Bardsley in the
misuse of funds, and he claims that to
testify before the committee will jeop'
ardize his case when called for trial.

NEWFOUNDLAND.
AN EDIcT OF STARVATION.

ST GEORGE, N. F., July 13.-Bald-
win Walkers proclamation in closing
the British Lobster fisheries along the
coast of Newfoundland is practically
an edict of starvation to hundreds of
people, and unless the people of Hall
fax and other points in Canada or
ganize a relief fund, great restitution,
II not actual starvation, must ensue.
The scattered people of west coast are
absolutely dependent upon the fish,
cries, but the most important question
is will the British government compen-
safe thousands of leople whom they
prohibit from making living. These
10 factories are closed down by the
British war ships at the demand Of
French naval officers, without any re-
gard to their interference with the
French factories or fisheries. 1t is
said they are in violation of the modus
vivendi and must close down without
any regard to the effect upon the PEG
pie of the coast.

NOT ONE SORE NOW
Badly Afflicted with Bad Sores and Erup-

BY the Cuticura

During the summer of 1889 nv eighteen
months old infant was so afflicted with
eruplions that ordinary domestic remedies
failed TO give any relief On his hips would
often appear the seeming track of little
wire like worm, and on other carts of his
body bad sores came and remained until I
procured the CUTICURA REMEDIES For some
time | used the soap end save without a
blood medicine, but they did not do SO well
as when all were used together. Ithas now
been nearly year since the eruption was
healed, and very much feared it would re-
turn with the warm weather of this year
but the summer is passed and not one sore
has appeared on him

sheep herder arrived at this place to-
night with information that the
Navajo Indians were gathering in vast
numbers and seem to be greatly ex-
cited and are preparing to resist any
attempt to arrest leaders in their
bands for stealing cattle and sheep in
this vicinity. They have warned
stockmen to leave their imaginary
territory to them, threatening their
lives if they do not do so, and it is the
belief of people that this is the COM
mencement of the expected outbreak
of Navajo Indians. Twenty. five more
citizens left here tonight to reinforce
Sheriff Francis and his posse of COW.
boys, and kilograms have been for
warded to the governor asking for
troops to be ready to come. The
sheriff issued warrants for the arrest O.
the chief and others, but it is believed
he will only succeed in making things
worse, as his posse is but handful
and the Indians are numerous and
we'll armed.

appears to be about the center of the

teen miles to the town of Hugo, and
from four miles east of that place to
Limon, sixteen miles west, so the
swarm is at least twenty three miles
wide and twenty long, covering an
area OF AGO square miles. These are
the young of those thai were here last
year, having increased several hun
dred fold. They are not fully enough
developed to fly, but will be within two
weeks. Their direction is eastward.
Although they cannot fly, they make
