A CLERGYMAN'S SIN.
Attempted to Indecently Assault
Two Little Girls.

/
Two Little Girls.
LONDON, June 6.-The Rev.
Charles Douglas is charged with
trying to indeceutly assault Florence
Huntley, a Is year-old girl.
From the evidence given before
the police magistrate, before whom
Douglas was arraigned yesterday at
Paddihg'on, it appears that the pris-
o Ter met the girl az she was returr
ing to her home. He accosted her
and walked with her. He made
lproper proposals to her, and of
red her sum of morey if she
would accompany him. The girl
refused. They were in u lonely To-
cality, and when he saw that Flor
ence would not do as he wished, he
tried to force her. The girl strug-
gled desperately, young as she was,
and her dress was nearly torn from
her. She managed to escape from
the grasp of Douglas, who had
thrown her down, and, springing to
her feet, dashed away from her as
sailant. A short time afterward
Douglas met the 10 year-old sister of
Florence, who was walking along
the road, and the miscreant at
tempted to assault her. The cries of
the child attracted the attention of
man who ran to see what the
trouble was, and who grasped Doug
las. He made a most desperate re-
sistance, fighting and biting in his
efforts to break away from his cap
tor. 1t was no use; and then,
wheedling and whining, he set forth
the terrible disgrace that would come
upon him if his disgrace was made
public, and offered his capUor large
sum of money ifhe would allow him
to escape, but the captOr, keeping a
firm hold of him, marched him
along until he met a constable, to
whom he gave his prisoner in Gus
tody, The police magistrate remain
ded Douglas for trial.

which shows CDat he is determined
that the colored posts In the depart

nized by the posts composed of their

"The junior vice-commander Of

HIS LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS.
In bis letter of instructions to Mr..
Badger, Mr.. Palmer says.
tFor some six months these
colored posts were recognized by the
department of Louisiana, after
which, by Illegal action, they re
fused to have any further connection
with them, giving AS the ground fu'
such action, the assertion that thes'
posts contained many members who
were not eligible to membership, but
no proof thereof. Out
Of this illegal action more than any
other the present deplorable trouble
has grown. To remove all grounds
of trouble or suspicion in this matter
you will at once proceed to
thorough inspection of these colored
posts, examine the records as to the
of every one claiming
membership and report to the head
quarters the result Of such inspec-
ton. If the situation in any of the
posts is shown to be as has been
steps will at once be taken
10 annul the charters of such posts
You will also call provisional en-
at some convenient time
before the lst day of July next, for
the purpose of electing department :
officer and transacting other business !
Of general interest. Your attention =
Is called to the rules of order regu-
lating the surrender of post charters. :
From news received at these head :
quarters, it is felt that action is pro
posed which is in violation of the 4,
service rules.

small children had just finished
the exercises and were going homo.
The church was raised from its
foundations and dashed down in
mass of ruins, burying about sixty
children, together with the pastor OF
the church and several teachers.
Fortunately, the falling timber
formed an arch over the heads of
those in the church, and all were
soon released from their lmprIson-

them are Maud Perry, Dan Meal

TRIBUTE.

While it is over thirty years ago since
ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERs were first
introduced to the medical profession and
public, the marked success and unprece-
dented popularity which they met with
not only continues, but steadily increases
No other plasters have been produced
which gain so many testimonials OF high
value as those continuously accorded to
ALLCOCK'S Porous PLASTERS, and the
only motive for these exceptional tributes
lies in the fact of their being medical and
pharmaceutical preparation of superior
value. Additional proof of the true value
of ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERs lies in the
fact that they are being largely initiated
by INSCRIPTIONS persons; who seek to
deceive the public by offering plasters
which they claim to be the same, y
equal "ds good, ""better," best porous
plaster" etc, while it is in general APP
pearauce only that they resemble ALLCOCK's
Every one Of the so-calied porous piasters
are limitations of ALLCoCK'S Porous PLAS-
TIERS
Avoid dealers who attempt to palm off
inferior and worthless plasters that are
purchased bv them at low rates for the
purpose Of substitution.

THE BRUSSELS CONFERENCE.

NEW YORK, Dec l9.--Henry Clews, in
his weekly financial circular, says:
''The proceedings OF the silver conference
do not appear TO promise any immediate
definite result. The discussions, however,
have unquestionably had the valuable ef-
feet of awakening Europe to the serious
ness of the danger connected with the
silver problem; of arousing public opinion
in England TO the necessity Of that country
doing something really substantial to-
ward restoring the status of the white
metal; OF convincing the European gov
ernments that they must make large. pos
itive and permanent engagements If they
wish to escape the threatened dangers;
and of satisfying the other governments
that it is useless to hope that they may
shift upon the United States any lueqult-
able share of the responsibilities that Il
real remedy must impose upon all the
great commercial powers. On all these
vital points the several governments re-
presented in the conference have now
reached distinct understanding. This Is
large gain towards a settlement; as
it dispels all false hopes and all ideas otany
nation getting unfair advantages or
exemptions through diplomatic maneu-
vers. The treatment of the question hay
ing reached this stage OF clarltlcatlon, IL
seems prODdDIS tldI tH6 COuiti GHCc may
adjourn for few months. During that
period, political Influences may bring
England into a more practical attitude,
and direct diplomatic exchanges between
the several governments may mature un-
derstandings that will enable the confer
ence. when it reassem bles, to reach Il
definite conclusion. Whether that con-
clusion may be some really feasible
scheme of bimetallism, or some mere tenn
porizing compromise that will command
no abiding confidence, or an abandonment
OF tue problem as hopeless, these are
chances which the event alone can de-
termine; but, in any case, the temporary
adjournment of the conference Will afford
time for more mature consideration and
will, to that extent, favor more settled
feeling for the next few montns.'
"Iu any case, the United States now oc-
cupy much more assuring attitude be-
fore the world than they did before the
assembling of the conference. 1t Is now
manifest that. under no circumstances,
will our government commit itself 10 any
position That could invalidaIe our ability
TO maintain payments In gold or its sure
equivalent. This attitude Is so far an an
sWer to the dlstrust that has caused au
immense return of our securities from Eu-
rope within the two last years, that we
may reasonably count upon the London
market affordIDg Il steadIer support to
New York from this time forward. And
this be IL noted, Is an important factor
bearing upon the future movements Of
gold between this country and Europe"
