New YORK, June 15.-In the pretty vii.
lage of Hamilton, Madison county, oc.
CURED the second annual convocation Of
the Supreme Council of the Mystic Order
of Yelled Prophets Of the Enchanted
Realm. This Is not a Masonic order, and

gree.
About 10 members were present. A
dispensation was granted for the instltu.
tion of a grotto at Ilion. The following
supreme officers were elected: Most Po-
tent Grand Monarch, Gen. Thomas L.
James, Of New York. Right Potent Depu-

Rndrard Kiplinr,a I1lness.

New York, June 15.-Reports pub
lished yesterday of the serious illness Of
Rudyard Kipling are directly at variance
with recent trustworthy advices from his
family. The last letter which the late
Henry ]. Mcdonald, the well-known
financial writer, received from his rela-
tives in England, came to hand on We'd
nesday last, and was from his sister,
the mother of KirSing. 1t bore date of
June 3,iand in it she wrote, as If it were
a matter of no special anxietyi 'Rudyard
is poorly. He has worked too hard and
is exhausted nervously shall run
down to Brighton with him for few
days" This does not indicate, as the
dispatch from Pittsburg printed yester-
day did, that Kipling is dying of con-
sumption in Italy.

Bishop knights VIII.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, June 15,-The will OF
the late Bishop Knight which has been
made public, disposes of an estate valued
at 100000 The entire property goes to
his wife. 1t includes cottages and
grounds at Saybrook, Conn, home in
Lancaster, Pa, an orange grove in
Florida, together with $4,000 in life In
surance. Mrs. Knight will continue to
reside in Milwaukee. The fact that
the bishop was possessed of any amount
of property will be a surprise to his
friends, as the diocese did not pay an ex-
travagant salary, and he was exceedingly
generous to charitable and educational
institutions under his direction.

TWO BIG sPoRTINe EVENTS.
The Suburban and slavin- KiIrain FIgh
Tomorrow.

The Suburban and slavin- Kilrain Fight
Tomorrow.
New York, June 15-At the uptown
hotels crowds of sporting men discussed
the two great sporting events set down
for to-morrow-the Suburban and the
Slavin-Kilrain fight.
Dick Roche, President of the Granite
Club, stated to a reporter that the fight
would be declared draw If one pugilist
or the other was not knocked out. Jere
Dunn, who is to be the referee of the
contest, said that he would declare that
man the winner who, in his judgment,
had the better of the contest if both men
lasted ten rounds.
1t was rumored in Jersey City that
the authorities would stop the fight if
any tickets were sold in New Jersey. The
club officials will sell no tickets in that
State, however, and the chances are that
there will be no interference.
The sports are betting even money
that Slavin will not stop Kilrain. The
largest bet reported was made by Phil
Lynch, who bet $4O0 that the Baltimor-
can would be on his feet at the end of the
10th round Kilrain is expected here to-
night

Memphis Commercially
The old question of a railroad
commission has been revived in the
State Legislature, as our staff cor
respondent, in lengthy dispatch
from Nashville in another page ex-,
plains, upon a basis purely personal
to a corporation whose president
conceives that the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad Company does
not do him justice in the matter of
his annual purchase of coal-that
it discriminates between him and
some manufacturers to the extent of
2 cents per bushel in summer. Ii
this be true, President Wrenne has
his remedy without bothering the
Legislature. He can apply to the
Interstate Commerce Commission
in Washington, which was organ
lied and is maintained by the Fed
ersl Government for the settlement
Of all such and similar questions.
The existence of that commission
makes the creation of State rail
road commission unnecessary, and
is all the argument that ought to
be needed to knock the agitation
for a State commission in the head,
as not only useless and selfish, but
mischievious, because it is calcu-
lated to mislead the people as to
the position Of the railroad compa-
n1esas corporations conducted upon
usually common-sense basis, and
because it would arouse an antago-
nism to them based upon state.

to find the State Alliance, as our
correspondent assures us it does.
occupying a position in this mat
ter of discreet silence. The lead
ers Of that organization perhaps
feel that the legislature can pass
laws to enforce equities and fair
play by the railroad companies,
and that if such laws are passed
Governor Buchanan will see them
enforced without the aid of stand
ing commission.
