BLAINE Is A WE'LL MAN.
At Least This Is the Report of a
Philadelphia Physician.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 29.-The Press
tomorrow will publish the following:
ITO consult his medical adviser was the
prime reason of Mr.. Blaine's trip
to Philadelphia. Mr.. Blaine learned
that he was in better health
and strength now than he was four
years ago, and that six months OF year
hence he would be stronger than he Is
now. He learned further that he is as
good man. physically at siXty-One
years, Mr.. Blaine'S age, as anybody else
of like age.
"Mr. Blaine is a well man." This is
what DR.. Madison Taylor, the physician
to the secretary, said yesterday in an
interview. DIR. Taylor thoroughly eX-
amined Mr.. Blaine during the latter's
visit to this city, and he had been asked
to make this statement to put a
stop to the many reports to
the contrary. ''Mr. Blaine is in
better condition, a great deal better con-
dltiOn than six months or a year ago."
added DR.. Taylor. land, so far as | can
definitely say from careful ObSerVa-
ton of his condition and what has been
told me of what it was before began
to attend him, Mr.. Blaine enjoys better
health than he did three or four years
ago. Six months hence he will be even
better than he is now.
MIR. Blaine is a we'll man. For his
years. he is sturdy. When L began to
attend Mr.. Blaine last spring he was
suffering from an acute Illness. He was
in very bad condition and completely
broken down by OverwOrk. | did not
know what the outcome would be.
Now there is 10 doubt in my mind,
for Mr.. Blaine's health is excellent.
He is back TO his normal weight. He
has a good appetite and leeps well.
Mr.. Blame has got well by the exercise
of common sense, not medicines. At
Bar HarbOr he went out riding so far
per day, walked q certain distance and
played handball fixed lenght of time.
In short, he cOnScientiOuSly OBJ
served my advice in the matter of
exercises, and now we are very much
gratified. Before his illness MIR. Blaine
was not a man who would take much
exercise. Now he is the opposite. He
has grown to like it. MI. Blaine wrote
me couple OF weeks before his visit
here that he walked about two miles
every day. Very Orten, he says. he
walks a mile at stretch.
IF Mr.. Blaine continues to take care
of himself, as he is now doing, | see no
reason why he should not live many
years longer. He has entered upon the
ripe age, being siXty-one years old, and
| he takes pleasure in his present
strength. When l examined him he
| pulled up his right arm and felt his
| muscles. They were good and
large. 1t is very gratifying to
state that his limbs and his
arms are more muscular and larger
than they have been for years. When
l said he will be even in better health
! civ 4 rot nc
reason that a person, say one who has
been i'll with typhoid fever, will not re-
cover ali his former strength immedi-
ately upon recovery. He will have a
heavy feeling in his limbs, etc. This
will gradually work off day by day un-
til he finds himself sturdy, quick and
tull of bright health"

A GIANT AUDITORIUM
No Division of Sentiment as to
What We Want.


What We Want.
The question of a gigantic st. Paul
auditorium was the pOpulOr theme of
discussion everywhere in st. Paul
yesterday. The need of hall with
seating capacity of from $4,000 to 10000
was conceded; and it was generally
agreed that the interests of the city
have frequently suffered in the past be-
cause of the absence of place for hold
ing large conventions, mass meetings
and May festivals. Iii discussing the
subject the GLOBES Friday article, CIV
ing the views of several st. Paul archi-
tectS, seemed to form the general basis.
The plan of the Mormon temple at Salt
Lake City, as suggested by E. p. Bass
ford, found a good many advocates, and
the proposition made by Clarence
johnson, to erect an auditorium with
facilities for subdiVlding the main hall
so as to accommodate an audience of
almost any size, was pronounced a
capital idea.
And the project appears to take prac-
teal shape. Ways and means were dis
cussed in the different phases they pre-
sent. The project to form stock COM
pany was conceived, and 1t will be no
surprise to see this feature of the prob
lem assume tangible form today. 1t
will cost a great deal of money, and it
may possibly not prove an Immediately
profitable Investment, but there is an
abiding faith in the progress of st.
Paul, and the ground floor rooms will
sooner or later find use either in mer-
camille, social or educational ways.
Such an auditorium would be an elo-
quent and living testimonial to the mod
ern enterprise of the capital city, and
it would advertise to the world that
this would then be the ideal convention
city of the country.
Such is the consensus of opinion.

BEALs WON'T PROSECUTE.
He Says His Honor Was Pledged
Not to Do So.

He Says His Honor Was Pledged
Not to Do So.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 29.-Public ex-
element over the Beals kidnapping case
has subsidized to very great extent,
principally because of the public an
nouncement that Mr.. Beals will not
prosecute the abductors. Mr.. Beals
claims that his honor is involved be-
cause he gave his word that he would
ask no que stiOns if his child were only
returned. The police say that
the promise related only to the
person who returned the child, and
ought not to allow him to refrain from
doing all in his power to convict Mr..
and Mrs. King, now under arrest for
the crime. Despite the decline of pub
lie interest in the case, nevertheless
the prisoners are still kept at Independ-
ent out of the way of possible attempt
at lynching. The man that returned
the child to his home and got the re-
ward is still being searched for by the
police. No trace of him has been
found and the police believe he has sue
ceeded in getting out of town.
Prosecuting Attorney Marcy b.
Brown, in an interview tonight, stated
that Mr.. Beals had nothing whatever to
do with the prosecution of the prisoners
further than that he might be called
upon to testify at the trial. If he de-
clined to testify. then he might be I'M
priSOned for contempt or arrested as an
accOmplice after the fact in assisting in
the escape of the man to whom the ran
some was paid

TRACY. Mimi. Nov. ga large por-
ton OF the business part of this place is
in ashes tonight from 4 disastrous fire
which broke out on Front street at II
o'clock this morning. The cGnhagration
broke out suddenly in the Hughes build
ing on Front street. The wind was
blowing a strong gale from the south
east at the time, and the flames
spread rapidly, taking the wooden
buildings along Front street in quick
succession. With the poor facilities
at hand IN the way of water and fire
apparatus, nothing of any account
could be done in the way Of getting the
fire under control, and the attention of
the people was turned towards
Saving the Contents
Of buildings exposed. The entire row
of buildings on Front street, from Third
to Fourth street, went down within a
very short time, with the exception. of
pied by the State bank, and
the flames rapidly spread, sweep
ing up the west side of Third street,
taking all the wooden buildings in
range. The first check to the flames
was met in the lire-proof walls of FInch's
drug store. across the alley from the
last building burned, J. D. Owens gen.
eral store. About this time the Mar
shal fire engine, which had been telc-
graphed for. arrived on the scene and
began playing on the flames, which had
in some measure subsidized, and the fire,
at Z o'clock this evening, was under
control, although the wind still con-
tinueS to blow. In most cases the
Stocks in Stores
and shops were saved. The first build
ing to burn, owned by r. E. Hughes,
dwelling, went down with its entiIe
contents, as also the building occupied
by ID. Stafford as a hardware store.
The loss cannot at present be esti-
mated but it will reach into the hun
dreds of thousands. Those who lost
the heaviest were r. E. Hughes, double
store building; j. J. Hartigan, sa-
loon; II. c. Heine, shoe store :;
J. b. Waugh, hotel; E. o.
Braun, restaurant; Belle q Segur,
meat market; Allen Bates, cOntectiOn-
cry store; NJ. d. Gibbs, hotel; d. Stat
ford, hardware; G. Peterson, tailor
shop; o. L. Partridge, general store; j.
d. Owens, general store. Several
smaller losses are included. Several
families are without homes and every
hotel. with the exception of the railroad
eating house, is gone. Some suspicious
are afloat that the fire was incendiary,
but nothing definite can be learned.

KELLEY ISN'T ALARMED.
He Thinks Henry Nj. Monroe Is
Merely Bluffing.

DWIGHT. ILL.,. Nov. 29.-In an inter-
view with DR.. Leslie E. Kelley, in re-
lation to the two suits of one Henry NJ.
Monroe VS.. The Leslie E. Kelley
Company, for the failure to cure
said man of drunkenness and for
damage to his health for taking the gold
cure treatment the doctor says Mr.. Mon
roe was here under treatment from May
to June %. and was cured of the drink
ing habit. This Monroe admitted. He
afterward returned to drinking, eXcus-
ing the fact with the statement
that during sickness the physician
prescribed liquor for him and the
habit became again fixed on him. He
left Dwight, so far as the doctor knows,
for no other reason than that he had
become so dissipated that he could find
no employment. If the matter ever
should come to trial, which the doctor
is satisfied it will not, he is prepared to
de fend himself.

PROBABLY ALL DROWNED.
The Tahiti Lost With Nearly 300
on Board.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. ga dis
patch from ManZanillo, Mexico, says
the American steamer Roseville has ar
rived there and reports passing
wreck-that of the brig Tahiti-at sea.
She was floating bottom up, and the
captain of the ROseville says she must
have been capsized. The rigging had
been cut away on the port side. appar-
emily to prevent this. The Tahiti Gre
ated 4 sensation Sept. 90 last by putting
into brakes bay near this city in
distress. She had 270 Gilbert island
erS Oh board under contract for work
in Mexico at starvation wages. These
men were, practically slaves, and there
was mucl! talk of Selling the vessel.
Collector Phelps, however. decided he
had no rightly to detaIn her, and the
brig left. 1t seems almost certain that
all on board have been lost, as the
ships boats were still with her, and
nothing has been heard of any of the
survivors. Tie wreck must have hap
peued at least month ago. Besides
the islanders, the vessel had officers
and crew of twenty men, making
total of 291 on board the Inflated craft.

DINNERS AND RECEPTIONS.
They Will Be Less Numerous at
the White House This Year.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. The past
week was marked by the influx of a
large number of strangers into the city,
as well as the return of the
many familiar faces annually drawn
to Washington by the OPEN
ing sessions of congress. The official
season this year will be long one, in
consequence of which President and
Mrs. Harrison will endeavor to effect
departure from the usual order by ar
ranging the state dinners and recep-
lions so that there will be but
one a week. In this way the
entertainments will be more
equally distributed, the demands upon
their time less arduously eXacting, and
better opportunity afforded the various
members of the cabinet to satisfactorily
arrange dates for the official dinners
and card receptions which must be
given.

COULDN'T SILENCE HIM.
The Archbishop of AK Is Still
Game.

PARIS, Nov 29.-The archbishop or
AK celebrated mass in the BasilIca at
Lyons this morning. In the course Of
his address the archbishop referred to
his recent trial before the court. He
did not regret what he had done, he
said, and the fact that fine has been
imposed would not have the effect of
silencing him. When the archbishop
was leaving the cathedral the cOngrega-
ton rose en- masse and called out, "Vive
Soulard." The archbishop paused and
responded to this manifestation, mot
vive Soulard, but we lie eondamne."
The people then, taking him at his
word, cried again and again, ''Vive lie
condamne" until the cardinal drove
away in his carriage.

HER DEATH MYSTERIOUS.
A Funeral Stopped for an Investi-
CATION,


AsBURY PARK, \. j., Nov. 29.-Cor-
oner Van Dyke, of Long Branch, today,
on complaint of a number of people of
West Asbury Park, stopped the flu
neral of Miss Mamie Bishop. the eight
een-year-old daughter of Mrs. John
Rowland, who died very suddenly on
Thanksgiving night. The neighbOrs
claim that Miss Bishops death was due
to poisoning, while others heard that her
death was from more serious cause,
and that the coroner has q good case to
WORK on. Miss Bishop was III apparent
good health up to Wednesday evening,
when, while out shopping, she was
taken Ill, and fainted. She went home
iIf a carriage and Thursday evening she
died. Her physician declared that
death was due to heart trouble. At the
funeral service, held at the house Satur
day afternoon. the neighbOrs noticed
that the corpse had become bad
ly discolored and had swollen
To twice its original size.
These facts, together with her sud-
den death, aroused their suspicious and
caused them to notify the coroner. Mrs.
Rowlands claims that the girls death
was due to heart trouble. The coroner
will hold an autopsy tomorrow morning
and the inquest Tuesday. The young
lady was very popular and we'll con-
nected. Great excitement prevails in
the vicinity of the girls late home over
her alleged mysterious death.

SHOCKING BEYOND BELIEF.
The Chinese Riots We're OF I'm
pareIIeled AtrOcity.


LONDON, Nov. 3O.-The Chronicles
correspondent at Tien Tam says: "Of-
fetal reports of the Takow massacre
contain details almost without par
allel, even in the the history of
China. Previous dispatches have given
but faint idea of what happened. The
members of the little Belgian mission
had no opportunity of escaping. The
slaughter commenced with the killing
of native converts. many of whom were
put to death with fiendish cruelty.
Children Of tender years were seized
and roasted at huge fire.
A worse fate still befell the nuns. who
were subjected to the grossest indigni-
ties, being brutally outraged by the
fiemds, who afterWard Drained them
with massive clubs. The Belgian
priests were cruelty tortured, but met
their fates with Christian resignation.
One of them had his heart and
tongue torn from his body and burned
by the savages in murderous frenzy.
The most astounding statement is the
one that after the miscreants had been
satisfied with outrage and slaughter,
they were Toasted and feted by the lead
ing Chinese mandarin in the district.
The foreign diplomatic body at Pekin
are simply furious. The whole Eu-
Topean colony is boiling with
Indignation. The news from Mongolia
is increasingly serious. The rebel
forces are reported 10 be growing larger.
and their forward march has been CON
1inued so far uninterTuptedly. The
imperial troops have not yet got into
touch with the rebels. Further detach-
ments of troops have been ordered
forward. The rebels in their south
ward march occupied towns without re-
sistance being made by the populace.
At all the places through which they
passed the rebels made acquisitions
upon the inhabitants for supplies. A
dispatch from St. Petersburg gives the
contents Of a private telegram about the
Chinese disturbances, received by the
