CADETS OF TEMPERANCE.

AS the grandlsection election approaches
there is much speculation as to who will
obtain the office of Grand Patron. Brother
Viewers has announced that he will not
accept another term and also says that he
would like to see Brother John Dingwall
of Fisk, succeed him. Hudson Section
will place Brother Isley in the field and
the canvasS promises to be very interest
ing, with the chances strongly in Brother
DingwalIs favor. Brother Isely's age
will be much In his favor as he is much
older than Brother DingwaIl, but the
delegates do not forget that there is no
man living who has done more fol the
cadets OF this State than Brother Ding
wall. He organized both Fisk and Hud-
son sections and has done much toward
building up the others and the order in
general. Brother Isely Is not ut present a
member of the Grand Section OF New

time to talk of his abilities.

TO HELP THE LIFE SAVERS.
The Rev. s. Edward Young Moving Vico
Ousiy for an Increase of Pay.

The Rev. s. Edward Young Moving Vicor-
Ousiy for an Increase of Pay.
The Rev. S. Edward Young OF the Westmin-
ster Presbyterian Church of Asbury Park, NJ,
who started the movement for an increase of
the salaries Of the men engaged in the life-sav-
ing service and the granting of pensions to the
members Of crews who become disabled, will
come to Washington in a few days to present
the matter to Congress. Mr.. Young has re-
ceived letters from large number of Senators
and Congressman. All of the writer's give the
movement their unqualified approval and
pledge him their support President Harrison
is interested in the movement.
When Mr.. Young began studying the condi-
ton OF the men III the service two years ago
what particularly struck him was that while
Congress was opened with prayer, and the
army and navy and prisons and jails had their
chaplains, the life savers had no religious at
tention whatever. The sick were not visited
by clergymen excepting when the latter were
called in by the friends Of the patient. The
salaries OF the men average only about $500 a
year. and they have to PURCHASE their own uni
forms and pay for all medical examinations
In case man is crippled for life while on duty
he can draw his salary for two years only.
General superintendent Kimball and the su-
psTmtendents of the twelve life-saving dis
tricts are all in favor of increase in salaries
and the granting OF small pensions to men per-
manenty disabled in the service Mr. Young
has arranged for the holding of religious serv-
ices at every one of the forty-one stations on
the New Jersey coast at least once a month
He has paid all the expenses Of the movement
thus far. The members Of the Christian En-
deavor societies on the New Jersey ocean front
are i'll charge of the religious meetings held at
the stations. Mr.. Young has arrangements
nearly completed also for big Christmas din
ner for each one of the crews.

knOwledges Foreign Representatives.
President Peixotto of Brazil yesterday for
mally received the various representatives Of
foreign governments accredited to Brazil. and
he also received the Brazilian and other naval
forces whose vessels are at present at Rio jan
GIRO.
The president has issued manifesto in which
he declared that the members Of Dictator Fon-
seca's government are traitors to the constitu-
ton. He adds that ali his own efforts will be
directed to consolidating the republic and ad-
vancing the material prospects of the country
All signs of discomfort have disappeared
from Rio Grande do Sui, and everything is
quiet throughout the state. The government,
in view of the fact that Senior Castillo per-
sisted in his refusal to again accept the govern
Orship Of Rio Grande do Sui, which Office he
resigned at the beginning Of the trouble in the
state, has appointed Senior Osario to the po-
sition. iii appointment appears to give en-
tire satisfaction. and it is believed that affairs
in Rio Grande do Snl will now cause no further
trouble to the general government.

Miller OF Wisconsin, two of the other friends of
Mr.. Springer, went to the Mills forces: so that
the twenty-eighth ballot gave Crisp 1O3. Mills
e6. McMillin l9, Springer 8 and Stevens 1. Mr..
Capehart, Mills man. was sick and absent from
the evenings session. Mr.. Crisp was now
within II votes Of an election, but Mr.. McNil-
Inns 19 men were still unmoved, and no cleo
ton was possible while they remained loyal to
the Tennessee candidate.
OMNIBUS FOR Mr.. MILLS.
During all this time Mr.. McNillin had been
holding frequent conferences with his COL
leagues, and had left his headquarters and sta
toned himself in the lobby in the rear of the
House. On the following ballot there was a
change that was fraught with ominous portent
for the candidacy Of Mr.. Mills. Mr.. Stahl-
necker, who had been steadily voting for Mr.
Mills. changed to Mr.. Crisp. Mr.. Rabbit of
Wisconsin returned to Mr.. Springer, 30 that
the twenty-nirth ballot resulted as follows:
Crisp. 1O4; Mills, "a; McMillin, 10; Springer. 8,
and Stevens. /.
At the beginning Of the thirtieth ballot and
before the call had begun, Mr.. McMillin. who
had been standing in the rear lobby. entered
the hall. Instantly there was a burst of ap-
plause, as this was an unerring indication that
the gentleman from Tennessee was to with

Kelly IN Hia MnScle-

Base Ball Kelly sailed Sunday from Liver
pool on the Servia. He soon tired of Paris and
returned to a land where he knew the language
and felt sure Of his ground. On Wednesday
night he went Summing in east London. He
there visited u music Lall to see Louis Cyr lift
1886 pounds.
After the show Kelly stood at the bar drink
ing with Mitchell and Slavin when he felt a
hand in his watch pocket. Grabbing the thief
by the wrist, Kelly hauled off and planted
blow squarely between his eyes. The thief
who was a strong. burly fellow, showed fight,
and for five minutes there was thoroughly
lively time, in which Kelly did not escape
some vigorous blows. He finally vanquished Ills
man: The thief skunk away saying: Excuse
me. made mistake"
The police wanted to prosecute the man, but
Kelly declined TO appear against him.

said, ITO waste time in the police courts"
Kelly said he was obliged to return to America
earlier than he expected to resume his duties as
captain and manager of the Boston club.

POLITICS IN PITTsBURG.

Congressman Dalzcll Said to Be on q Still
Hunt to Succeed Senator Quay.
Special Dispatch to the Philadelphia Press.
PITTsBURG, Dec. IA local journal today
announced that c. L. Magee would in all like
lhood be a candidate for Congressman-at-large
next year on the republican state ticket. The
truth is Mr.. Magee has no such intention. He
had thought of going to Congress from the
Pittsburg district in case the congressional ap-
portionment bill became o law at the last ses-
sion OF the legislature, but has abandoned
the idea for the present The plan is now to
put Maj. Alexander Mcdowell of Sharon on the
ticket from the western end Of the state.
There is no longer any need of secrecy in re-
gard to John Dalzelrs candidacy for the United
States Senate against N. S. Quay. The Con-
gresham is a full-fedged candidate and is al
ready beginning to make his fight. He has not
openly announced himself. nor will he dc SO,
for 1t is asserted he thinks a move like that
would be impolitic. He is after the plum on
the ytflkhunt plan and will likely pursue this
way OF making his canvass for a while. He has
privately notified his intimate friends and has
requested all who can do anything for him to
lose no time in pursuing the stiil-hunt plan.
Several gentlemen, principally lawyers. have
already got down to work for Dalzell and
many private conferences are being held in his
interest.
story was published today to the effect that
George Shiras, third. was again candidate for
Congress in the twenty-third congressional dis
trlct as against Congressman William Stone.
his was surprise to many of Mr.. Shiras'
friends, who thought he would no. be a candi-
date, at least for some years yet. Mr.. Shiras
was asked today if the story were true and re-
plied
Il am not candidate nor will be one. The
matter has been mentioned to me on several
occasions by my friends, but in every case l
have said would not rum
MIR. Shlras Is known to be warm personal
friend OF John Dalzell. 1t is said that he is one
OF the men in whom the candidacy of the latter
for the United States senatorship has been con-
hded, and that young Shiras has already begun
work against Senator Quay. Mr.. Shiras was
member of the legislature and has a number of
friends among the lawmakers at Harrisburg
and will use every means in his power to push
Dalzeil to the front in the coming fight.
There is no doubt in my mind about Dali
zeil's candidacy" said Mr.. Shiras today HE
is not going to make brass band affair of it.
bu feel assured he is in the field to stay. In
this fight it will be the people against the poll
ticians.'

At 7:so pm. Mr.. Springer and his twelve

At 7.90 pm. Mr.. Springer and his twelve
sturdy supporters held secret conference, at
which Mr.. Springer thanked his followers for
their loyal support and stated his belief that
You gentlemen have been loyal to me-" he
said, you have made sacrifices for me- and IL
is now my time to be loyal to you am pre-
pared now to throw my influence and vote for
either OF the candidates that You gentlemen
may desire to support az q unit. And will do
that with a positive understanding with the
man we may elect that / want nothing. that I
ask nothing for myself, but that my friends
must be well treated fApplause.l / leave you
now, gentlemen. to decide upon the candidate
and my vote and influence il at your disposal"
Mr.. SPRINGER IN DEMAND.
After Mr.. Springer's withdrawal the delega-
ton discussed briefly the questions Of policy
and finally decided that they would not avail
that they would leave him entirely free to vote
as he desired on the decisive candidate, and
that they would each do the same.
From now on Mr.. Springer was greatly in de-
mand. He was in turn importuned by Mr..
Crisp, by Congressman johnson Of the Mills
st. Louis Republic, but the amount Of solace
and encouragement he gave either or any Of
them could not be learned. That most Of Mr..
McMillins following were decidedly pledged
to second choice when he shculd withdraw,
and that Mr.. Springer and his immediate
friends held the key to the situation, was the
general opinion, and the first ballot Of the
evening was awaited with breathless interest
DOUBT As TO M'MLLIN's COURSE.
When the caucus reconvened there was gen.
eral understanding that the end was near at
hand, and there was feeling Of the greatest
excitement, which found most favorable ex-
preston in breathless silence about the various
headquarters.
Mr.. Crisp expected the Springer vote to come
to him very soon, but there was enough doubt
to the course Of Mr.. McMillin to make the
most sanguine uneasy as to the result
The first change came when the name of
Durburow, one of Mr.. Springer's Illinois sup
porters, was reached. That gentleman voted
for Crisp, and few minutes later another of
MIR. Springers Illinois friends also voted for

organization Of the House for many yeara The

The nomination Of the Speaker was an
nounced in the extra STAR last night. The
account in the regular srAn closed after the
twenty ballot.
THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT CHANGE
On the next ballot, the twenty-second, the
first significant change occurred. Mr.. Cable
of Illinois abandoned the support Of Mr.
Springer and voted for Mr.. Mills. A few
minutes later Mr.. Newberry of Illinois also
deserted the Illinois candidate and voted for
the gentleman from Texas. This gave Mr.
Mills a gain of two votes, and Immediately
the friends of Mr.. Crisp made strenuous efforts
to offset this by corresponding gain for their

MR.. CRISP AS AN ACTOR.
Something About the Early Life Of the New
Speaker.


The Savannah (Ga.) Press Of Saturday had
the following in regard to the new Speaker:
There are few people here who remember
when Judge Crisp was a resident Of Savannah.
1t was away back in his youth. At that TINA
the rear portion Of the theatAs building was
used partly as q residence There it was that
the CEisp ifved. In those days the theatrical
business was not in the hands Of travelling COM
binations. Those were the palmy days of the
stock company. In each city of any import
ance resident company Of good actors was to
be found. They had the most extensive roper
torres, identified their interests with those Of
the town in which they were situated and lived
far differently from the sons and daughters Of
Thespis of today.
The Crisps, father and mother of Judge
Crisp, were prominent members Of this COM
pany. Charles was also corrected with it as q
PLAYER. Many night, il local tradition does
not belle him. he stood before the footlights
and glanced down over q multitude of fsces Of
Savannahians. What he played in and the
characters he SO abiy portrayed-for, Of course
the Judge was as good an actor then as he has
since become a lawyer and astatesman-are not
remembered now. Some day. perhaps, some

such worthy exemplars, thought Of nothing

pursuit, and saw not nor ever dreamed of, the
success awaiting him in field far remote from
that along whose avenues fancy led him.
mo matter whether he affected tragedy or
essayed the lighter but equally difficult roles
OF pure comedy, it is certain that the young
Crisp threw himself into his parts with his
whole soul He is not man who does things
by halves. By him now may We not judge the
youth just verging on manhood? Success came
to him through earnest, conscientious endeavor
IN the law and politics. The foundations for
that success were undoubtedly laid when in his
early life he trod the boards Of the Savannah
theater, and was taught by his painstaking
parents the absolute necessity of unceasing APP
pllcation if he desired to rise above mediocrity

Speaker Crisp's brother, Mr.. Henry Crisp,
who was one OF the most promising actors on
the American stage, died about ten years ago
after brief illness. He played a number of
engagements with first-class companies in Bal
tlmore, and was a great favorite with the
theater-goers of that city. One of his latest
parts was Ned Singleton in "My Partner in

Anxious Crowds at the ST. Etienne Pits.
The crowd which gathered about the pit ut
the scene of the choke damp explosion in St.
Etienne. France, yesterday was immense In
it were men, women and children, many of
whom had relatives or friends buried deep
in the bowels Of the EARTH 1t was pitiful to
watch them as they rushed closer to the
mouth Of the pit when the body Of some poor
unfortunate was hoisted to the surface. A
large force OF gendarmes was present. and at
times it was necessary for them 10 exercise
considerable force to hold the crowd in check.
The men who volunteered to go down into the
pit to recover bodies we're divided into relays,
who worked in short shifts The work was
terribly hard, for the main galleries we're COM
pletely blocked with debris, most of which had
to be removed before the rescuers could get to
where most of the dead men had been at work.
Often they stood at their work waist deep in
the foul, Shiny waters of the mine and in the
face Of that most deadly of vapors, choke
damp. Yesterday afternoon fifty-eight bodies
were lying under the sheds awaiting identii-
cation: Some Of them were SO horribly disfig-
ured that it is doubtful whether they will ever
be identified.
