his lordship. r he walked away in the

The Explanation OF Ii.

New YORK, April S.-Last night
the Sun received from high official
authority, the true explanation of the
vacillating course which Italy has
pursued, in first recalling Minister
Fava and threatening war, and then
meekly admitting by a dispatch from
Rome to the ImperIale, that Secretary
Blaine has all along been ready to
make reparation for the killing OF
Italians, aud that Italy has been too
hasty. The explanation is, that from
the time Baron Fava first received In
structions to present his letters of re-
call, until the day he did SO, he was
earnestly urging his government to
delay taking such an important
step, and holding out promises
OF an amicable settlement of the con-
troversy. This, of course, followed
for nine or ten days. On Tuesday he
was petemptorily ordered TO delay
no longer. He theTeupon pre-.
scented his instructions to SEQ
rotary Blaine. He returned to
his lodging and was astounded
to find there a cablegram iustructing
him to withhold his letter until the
receipt of further orders. 1t was too
late, however, as the news of his re-
call had been officially promulgated
and was spread world wide. The
date of this imperative telegram
shows it was decided upon after the
return of Premier Rudini to Rome af-
ter his interview with Minister Por-
ter. 1t will be remembered that Ru-
DIM was ahsant from Rome for
two or three days during the PEN
dancy of negotiations between Fava
and Blaine and while Minister Porter
was attempting to have Fava's appeal
for delay listened to. 1t is therefore
perfectly plain in light Of explanation
and q dispatch from Rudini to the
Imperiale last night to the effect that
on Tuesday last the italian govern
ment became convinced that it had
made q mistake, and that after two
days reflection they determined that
the course of wisdom was to officially
admit IL.

Thought it Was a Gang.

Last Wednesday night at the meeting
Of the Turner Hook and Ladder company,
it was decided that each man take home
one chair, the foreman to receive the ia
BILE. This was done and after the meeting
was over one man after another proceed
ed home with his chair. Officer Dickman
stood aside in dark shady doorway on
Houston street and began wondering what
furniture store had been robbed, debating
whether he should send for the proprietor
OF the furniture firm next to West Hous-
ton street bridge. or send to the station
for detachment Of officers to assist him
in making the wholesale capture OF the
burglars. The eighth man with a chair
had just passed him, when 10 and behold,
q man came along with a table on his
head. The face Of the bearer was hidden
by the shadow cast by the table. Officer
Dickman stepped forth and said, stop,
where did you get that table," just then
the carrier, with a sigh, put down his
burden, when the smiling "phiz" OF Fore
man Ben J. Mauermann, greeted the otfi-
Ger. An explanation enSued and quiet
once more reigned on Houston street.

ment.
Yesterday the Riverside Park was re-
opened under the new management,
Weatherford & Kelly, and very
suspicious start was m de. The weather
was delightful, and great many people
attended. More would have done so had
the street car service been better. This
caused many delays, and one car, No. 6,
besides being handicapped in the evening
about s o'clock by being stopped
for party of Germans to get a
glass Of beer and to treat the street car
man, was stopped about every so feet on
the way from the park, by the power
giving outAt one time IL gave out as the
car was approaching the Arkansas Pass
railway crossing, as train was coming
along. Had 1T given out at the crossing, a
smash-up would have been the result.
Again at the S. p. crossing, freight
came rushing along. The car was stopped
on the south side and the power gave out.
The electric car men say that the power
company has several times, lately, given
them insufficient power.
The three days go-as-you please walk
ing match began at s o'clock in the pa.
vilion, where mesquite saw-dust
track has been made. Worrell, Uhl,
Stone, Lee, Mitchell, and Zimmerman
were the starters. Lee, Mitchell and Zim-
norman started on a run while the 9TH
ers struck a steady heel and toe gait.
The score alta o'clock this morning was
as follows:
Lee, "a miles, 6 laps; Mitchell, "a miles;
Stone, 80 miles, 6 laps; Uhl, 81 miles, IS
laps; Worrell, 20 miles, z laps; thinner
man, q miles Is laps.
The score at 11:l5 today was as fol-
lows: Lee, GO miles; Mitchell. 81 and
| 2 laps; Uhl, 81 miles; Stone, SO; thinner
man, SO; Worrel, al. Worrel's low
score is because he has hauled off to get
some sleep, although at the start he pro-
posed to walk AZ hours before he slept.
The park management has placed plen-
ty OF large lanterns about the park and
by Sunday there will be all the benches
necessary, on hand.
The managers OF the saloon are polite
and prompt in their service.

Speaking of Old Things, How is rh,.e

Old man J. II. kirkwood has an an cent cook pot that descended to him from his great grandfather. and he knows it to be sixty-eight years old of his own knowledge. How much older he has no means of telling Neither can he tell how much older it will be. since it is now as good as new La, la! la! Just think of the soup. the chick ems. the squirrels, the coonS. the DOS sums. the hog iohls and greens. and such like, that have been boiled in that self-same old black pot. the savory I smells that have ascen1ed from it, the hungry people that it has chpered. the dogs that have licked it and been kick ed out of it, and the many times the sassy old vessel has called the kettle black. and all sort of things, is too tire some to dwell upon.
 Mir. kirkwood has also in daily use the first and only coffee mill he ever owned. It has seen forty years of active service and is still as good as new. Likewise he still wears the first pants buttons that were ever sewed upon his infantie brooches. It would be an interesting study for some statis- ticai liend to calculate just how much victuals out of that old pot and how l much coffee out of that old coffee mill that old brass button had ever been buttonsd over by that old gentleman. l-Dar(lanplle Post
