BROKE UP IN A ROW.
Another PruItieSS Anti.
White Meeting.
LYMAN DARLING DROPPED.

Another meeting of the anti White
Republicans was held Saturday evening in
an East avenue bu,iness mans office.
They had regular monkey and parrot

that lie should be recognized rather than
seek out new candidates. His friends
claimed he was as much anti-White as any.
body else they could find, and that he had
the prestige of being already in the field.
The name of Lyman M. Darling was
dropped as useless, as some reasoned that
they might as well tell the people that the
Gas company was the candidate as one Of
the Dsrlings, i,ulsrly Lyman, who
made his record relative to the municipal
electric plant when he was member of
the board of aldermen.
The name of George w. Newell, the ex.
city treasurer, was brosched as a sort of
compromise candidate. The friends Of
Mayor Goodwin, who desire to see him in
stalled as postmaster, took offence at once
and argued in this strata:
"Do you gentlemen suppose that we can
allow Fred Ssyles to come into power
again? He would have = certain amount of
influence over Newell through his conuec-
ton with tie Slater lapk. and then Mr..
Sayles is pushing the claims of "Ansel'
Nicktrson for the post, flee and be would
naturally want Mayor" Newell to use bis
influence in that erection
The Goodwin element looked upon that
proposition as preposterous.
Several other propositions were talked
over but the same fst-l objection from one
or another element p-cvented any decisive
action.
Aftere prolonged session the anti White
clans dispersed without coming 20 any
definite conclusion.
In the mestime efforts are 10 be made, as
was stated on Saturday ,veniny, TO capture
a maj ority of the convention against White
and trust to luck afterwsri.

MARRIED A CHINAMAN.
The Downward Career OF . Once Admired
Society Girl.

The Downward Career OF . Once Admired
Society Girl.
Miss Gertie Matthews, q former belle OF
Providence, and decidedly the haadsomest
young society girl in Rhode Island -four
years ago, is now Mrs. Lee Po of San
Francisco-the wife Of q Chinese cook.
The ,tory Of her brief life Of twenty years
10 q startling and romantic one.
She was reared in luxury. Her father
was the late Surgeon Matthews OF the Uni.
ted States Navy, and her mother was 9
reigning belle of her day at Washington,
New York and Providence and the admired
of all beautiful omen in South American
cities where Surgeon Matthews was on
duty.
Miss Gertie was q fsvorlte child, and af
ter the death of her parents she became the
ideal of her grandparents, the Elliotts OF
Prospect terrace, in the sristocratic quarter
of Providence. She did not relish the life,
apparently, for she detested the little re.
ceptions and the go,sipy mortals who called
at the mansions to which she had the entree.
She drifted around town and became talked
about in all classes and shades Of life.
At the theatre she was a favorite, and
the young bloods about the city had merry
times in her company in the variety
resorts. She was regular attendant al
the variety shows, and finally she left ber
home, and took refuge in q house of rather
questionable repute. Her relatives made
efforts to reclaim her, but conld rot and
gave her up as lost.
She was arrested in the latter part OF
1886 and taken to Police Headquarters
where she was met by her guardian, now q
high state official.
She wept bitterly when confronted with
the living memory Of her happy girlish in
nocence, and solemnly vowed reform.
She was Immediately tsksn from Provi
dence to Boston, where she remained fol
a short time. Here well known society
man asked her to marry him, but the olt
restlessne.s was upon her, and she refused
She went to Californis, living for time q
Los Angeles as q governess.
Here she met her fate In the person o.
Lee Po, Chinese cook. II may be tina
by some curious freak of nature she really
loved him. More likely, however, her
career in the Providence house hat
blun,ed her sensibilities. At all events, tc
his wooing she responded: 81 love you J
and they were married.
That is the last step in the career o
pretty Gertie Matthews, who, IL she hat
chosen, might now be one Of the leaders o
Boston's best society.

ing, and then the proper business for the
transaction Of which they met was begun.

the place was entirely vacated, as the de.
partures had been made in the same way as
the arrivals, by :wos and tirees, so as not
to attract attention.

Results Of Observations by the New Eng
land Meteorological Society.


CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct. 5.-The New
England Meteorological society, cooper
atiny with the United States weather bu.
reau. issues the following bulletin for the
week ending Oct. 2:
Another week Of generally warm, sun
shiny weather has pushed most crops TO
maturity, aud great part of the crops are
now secured. Very light rains fell over
the southern sections on the Goth, but in
most Of the north not even a trace OF rain
has fallen during the week. The drought
Is growing moro and moro severe, espe-
cially In the southeastern half Of New Eng.
land. In southwestern New Hampshire
fields and pastures are drying up
badly. The first hard frost Of the season
was felt on the morning Of the lst. In the
south this was generally confined TO the
low lands and little damage was done be.
cause the crops were so generally matured
and harvested. The frost was general
throughout the north, although the
weather Of the past few weeks had served
TO place most crops bevond injury by frost
and little damage is reported.
Corn is mostly cut, and the gathering
aud husking Is well under way. A large
yield Of excellent quality is generally re.
ported. Late potatoes continue TO turn
ont large crops in most places, with only
moderate indications Of rot. Fall apples
are plenty in most sections, but only
southern New England reports anything
like an average yield of winter fruit. The
cranberry harvest is nearly completed, and
an unusually large crop has been secured.
The crop bulletin which will be issued
Oct. 10, will be the last for the present
season, and the correspondents are re.
spectfully requested to send in full re.
ports on the average yield of the several
crops on that week.
