AN ANGRY ACTRESS.

Lizzie Gonzales Cowhided Q Correspondent
Who slandered Her.
DENVER, COL. Sept. 22.-Jake Hirsh, who
of late has acted as correspondent for Chicago
and New York papers, was horsewhipped and
badly punished by Q Philadelphia actress named
Lizzie Gonzales, now filing an engagement in
this city. It seems that Hirsh had acted in
distasteful manner tn Miss Gonzales, who
quickly resented it. This enrsged Hirsh. and
he wrote scurrilous items in his papers. which
reached Denver today. Miss Gonzales imme-
diately procured Q blacksnake whip and when
Hirsh made his appearance she flew IT him,
bringing the whip around his legs and shoulders
with the force Of an old-time OK driver, raising
blisters at every blow; then reversing the whip
she struck him stunning blow with the loaded
butt across the nose, smashing that member
almost fat. Hirsh then endeavored to protect
himself by clinching with her, but found that
he was only q Sullivan in the hands Of a
Corbstt, and the prints Of Miss Gonzales hands
are plainly visible upon his face.
A meeting was called at each newspaper Office
last evening and all contributed toward q
beautiful basket Of flowers, which was pro-
sented to the plucky little actress.
Accompanying the flowers from the Rocky
Mountdin Nses, written on q card, were the
words: "The next time use an ak.
The Republican card read: Receive the
thanks from unprotected ladies OF Denver"
From the Colorado SUN: Your job was not
n coarse one"

Col. r. H. Warfeld of San Francisco, who
was elected senior vice commander, enlisted as
private in the iftieth regiment, New York vol
unteers (engineers); second Lieutenant 1864;
first lieutenant, 1S64-'65: in mercantile pur-
suits, 1s65-1S77; cashier Farmers Mechanics
Bank, .Healdsburg, Cal, since 1877; COM
mander Department of California, G. A.
r., 1885. Comrade Warfeld served with
his regiment until the close of the war,
and with it marched in the grand review at
Washington. He was one of the original MEM
fers of O'Rourke Post, No. /. Department Of
New York, which was the third post in the
United States. and is still leading and pros
porous post in Rochester, n. Y. He was also
a charter member of Geo. II. Thomas Post, No
4, Department of New York, and organized
Rod Matheson Post, No. 16, Department of
California. He has also filed the position Of
junior vice commander of California. Com
mandery NJ. o. L. L. U. s. Last year Comrade
Warfield retired from active work in the bank
he helped to organize and placed his son in the
position OF cashier, which he now fills. and in
San Francisco he is quietly enjoying the COM
forts Of hard-earned fortune.
When the late Gov. Waterman was elected
chief executive of the state Col Warfield was
among the first appointed upon his staff and
remained bis intimate friend till the day of his
death. When Col. Warield was elected de-
partment commander in 1855 the depar tment
was sadly run down and recruiting had been
exceeding slow. He took hold with his usual
vlgor and business stamina and recruited in
twelve months 1,045 comrades, making the de-
partment 4,545 strong. As commander of this
department he went to Portland, Me-, and by
bis gentle and urbane manner assisted more
than any other comrade in the selection of San
Francisco for the national encampment in 1886.
He was named by his friends for the position of
commander-in-chief.

THE STARS GREAT WORK.
Everybody wants the Complete Account q
the Weeks Proceedtuxs

There have been crowds In Tur SrAp's busi-
ness Office, but never such crowds as the ono
which has, since Monday, forced itself
in and out Of the doorways on Penn
sylvania avenue and iith street. From
early. very early. in the morning
until long after the city Is ordinarily asleep the
veterans and their friends from afar olbow.d
their way TO the counter and ordered papers 10
be sent TO their homes. Everybody wanted Q
complete file for the week. and. rs the price
was only fifteen cents, the poorest
among the boys In blue could afford the
expenditure. IL wns good investment. for
never was 30 much valuable matter contained
In any newspaper and sold for such small
sum- All the routine proceedings have been
and are being reported fully and with absolute
accuracy, but these constitute only a small por-
ton OF the contents Of each issue. Sketches Of
distinguished soldiers and sailors. wildly told
"reminiscences. historical matter Of the most
valuable kind, with columns Of elaborate and
artistic description are all profusely illus
trated and combined daily with the cur
rent news. AT the branch Office OF The sraR q
iand-ofice business is in progress En-
ployes OF The STAR are in tents at Grand
Army Place and near the barracks at Camp
Ager. At these places Thousands Of veterans
have purchased papers for their own edifoation
and when they realized what prize they had
drawn for two cents they straightway ordered
n complete file Of the encampmcnt issues for
the edifcation of friends at home.
To meet this demand The STAR presses
which have a capacity three times as great a.
that possessed by any other newspaper in the
city-have been in a state closely bordering
upon perpetual motion.
As result of all this crowdng and hustlins
The STAR will be found in many more house
holds throughout the United States than any
other paper which has endeavored 70 show
forth that which is being done at the twenty
sixth annual encampment Of the Graud Army
Of the Republic.

WHY THE CHOLERA THRIvEs.

Village.

A Correspondents Description of . Polish
Village.
VIENNA, Sept. 22.-The medical correspond.
ent Of the Neue Freie Press at Cracov sends
to that paper a most distressing account Of the
squalor in the village of Podgorze, across the
Vistula river, and in KaEimierz, Crscow.
There is no drainage in Pod
gorze and Kasimicrz, and offal and
filth Of ell kinds are thrown into the streets
there to purify and poison the atmosphere.
An arm of the river cuts of Kasimierz from the
old town OF Cracow, and despite the facilities
for an almost Perfect sanitary system not the
slightest attempt Is made to use the flowing
river As a means to keep the quarter clean.
Podgorze IL on the south bank Of the Vistula,
directly opposite, and is connected with the city
By the Franz Joseph bridge. Both places are
hotbeds of disease and during the last two days
the number of cases OF cholera there have
doubled.
The correspondent charges the authorities
with neglecting to take even elementary pre-
cautions against the spread Of disease. In
fected houses are not closed and people are
free to enter and leave them at will.
Most Of those who have thus far fallen VIC
Tins to the disease have been women and
children The men regard cigarette smoking
as a sufficient safeguard against their contract
ing cholera, and this contention Is supported in
q measure by the fact that only Eve men in the
affected districts have been attacked by the
scourge.
Some physicians have claimed that cigar and
cigarette smoking was dangerous during the
prevalence Of the epidemic as 1t afforded the
bacilli an opportunity to enter the mouth and
thus reach the stomach and intestines. but thus
far this theory has not been borne out by the
facts at Cracow. where the men are inveterate
smokers. ManyNwho heretofore used tobacco
sparingly are now smoking enormous quanti-
ties of cigarettes with the idea that it win ward
of the disease.
AGAIN on THE INcREAsE.
HAMBURG, Sept. 22.-The official cholera re-
turns place the number Of new cases yesterday
at $50 and the deaths at 81, including 80 cases
and 30 deaths that were not included in previous

is again growing worse, on Tuesday only 149

ported.

iveness of the office. The delegates adopted the
report
was set for IL o'clock.
The question Of the seniority Of departments

consin and Illinois both claim the honor. Other
states also claim earlier dates than now given for
their organization. The entire question was
made special business for o'clock today.
The committee on legislation reported that
they bad suggested bills in Congress, which

G. Veazey entered the encampment and was re-
ceived with honors. On reaching the platform

niOr Vice Commander-in-C Chief Clarkson had
a bone to pick with him." The latter, in brief
and effective address, presented Gen. Veazey
the token voted him at Detroit by the twenty
fifth national encampment Comrade Clark
sons address was touching in the extreme, and
the recipient was affected to tears before he was
through.
At the conclusion Of his remarks q fine oil
painting of Gen. Yeazey was unveiled.
Past Commander-in-Chief Veazey accepted
the gift as coming from every comrade through
out the land. 1t was one that any man might
covet. His remarks were broken by emotion,
in which every comrades sympathy was with
him.
A delegate from Utah offered a resolution
calling for a soldiers home at Salt Lake City,
appropriating an unused public building in that
city for the purpose. 1t was referred.

Mr.. C. b. Hanford Next Week.

The appearance Of Mr.. Charles B. Hanford as
a star at the Academy Of Music next Monday
night is contemplated with exceptional interest.
1t is an event that has more than purely local
importance, although Mr.. Hanford is one of
the most popular Of the many lights that
Washington has contributed to the drama. The
criticism which he has received elsewhere has
been approving and at the same time discrim-
mating. His acting has impressed the people
who are competent to form and express opin-
ions on theatrical bjects most favorably. This
was only to be expected after the distinct hits
scored by him in the roles which he assumed
while Q member Of the supporting cast of other
stars. He produces next Monday night the play
In which many believe him to have shown most
brilliantiy-"Julius Caesar" His Marc Antony
Is characterized as intelligent, refined and
always vigorous and manly. The scenic equip
ments are exceptionally fine, and the support
ing company is said to be q capoble one.
