MIRACuLous ESCAPE
or Nan Who Was Buried In n Well fol
Eighteen Hours.

Eighteen Hours.
ATnoL, MASS, Oct Sl.-About o'clock
Saturday afternoon as George standish,
aged sixty, was about to come up out of
well which he had been cleaning, tho
rocks and dirt caved in upon him, COW
ering him with debris twenty-five to
thirty feet below the service. An alarm
was quickly given, and hundreds focked
TO the scene. Within few minutes a
number Of them were at work trying to
rescue the buried man. 1t was thought
that OF course he was instantly killed
by the large rocks, but after the rescu-
ing party had worked about ninc hours
they had heard groans. After working
eighteen hours the man was taken out
OF the well, and he will be us we'll as
ever in day or two. Part OF the well
did not cave in and formed an archway,
giving him sufficient air to sustain life.
Standish says he heard the men when
they removed the first shovel full OF
dirt

New York, Oct. Sl.-Charles Noel,
formerly manager of the Olympic club
OF New Orleans, from which he re-
signed, and now president of the Cres-
cent athletic club OF New Orleans, ar
rived here to-day. His object in visit
ing New York is to arrange for another
pugilistic carnival, the participants to
include Champion Jim Corbett, and
Charley Mitchell, OF England, Bob Fitz-
simmons ana jim Hall, Champion
Johnny Griffin and Griff, the feather
champion OF Australia.
"a good many people think Mitchell
will not fight. said Noel to-day, "but |
think he will" He has not signed
Mitchell, but from reliable sources Noel
says he has assurances that the English
man will meet Corbett. If Mitchell ro-
fuses to fight Corbett, Noel hopes to
match Peter Jackson against the cham

says, will outbid the Coney Island ath-

The LADY help" movement started in
London few years ago was practically a
dead failure, but an effort is now to be
made to revive it in slightly different
shape. For this purpose the Household
Auxiliary Association has been formed.
Both employers and applicants for situa-
tions are to supply references on register
ing their names as annual members.
The ladies who take service are not to be
required 10 take their meals or share a
sleeping-room with regular servants.
nor will they be asked to undertake
scrubbing, blacking boots, or CARRYING
heavy weights upstairs, although special
agreements may be made in particular
cases. This is the plan adopted by the
Gentlewomen's Employment Associa-
ton in Manchester, which has been in
operation for a little more than wear.
and has just issued its first report. From
this it appears that the lady-helps are
most desiroUs of finding situations as
companions, positions which are about
the most difficult OF all TO find.
There is good demand for nurses and
plenty of ladies willing to undertake the
duties. of such places, but. curiousIy
enough, most of the employers seem to
think that 'lady-helps" ought to be will
ing TO work for much smaller wages than
those paid to regular servants, or even
for no wages at all. for the sake of getting
comfortable home. In other words.
they feel that they ought not 10 be called
upon to pay equal prices for skilled and
unskiiled labor. If young ladies' knew
more about ordinary household duties
they would be better fitted for making a
livelihood if overtaken by misfortune.
The problem now is how to provide the
necessary preliminary instruction for
women absolutely penniless and help
less. without setting them to common
''drudgery." Some day or other the as
sociation hopes TO have funds for this
purpose, but where they are to come
| from no one yet has the least idea.

NEGROES IN WASHINGTON
They Have Their Own '.society,'' Lii,
and Dress Well,

W,
and Dress Well.
The leading negroes of the CAPITAL have
their own society, and the other negroes
are Justly proud of them. They live in
good houses; they have comfortable in
comes; some of them ride in their car
rlages; their women folk have regular
reception days, and dress themselves in
silks and satins, often employing the
dreSsmakerS of their race who cut and
sew for their white neighbors, They
have their churches, modest but substan-
tlal-Methodist, Baptist and Roman Ca
tholic chiefiy-and they like good loud
preaching, hearty singing and much
splendor. These churches are sources OF
constant enjoyment, and theological dis
cusslon Is an ever-ftowing well-spring OF
pleasure to the nego man or woman.
Like the conventional New England.
the lives of many of the negroes of Wash
lngton center around the church. The
preacher IS not always respected for him
self, but his gift Of speech and power OF
lung are objects of great admiration. AS
for the church buildings, they are always
spoken OF atfectionately and warmly as
"she," even when they are designated by
mems names.

hand to hand without much regard to the
laws governing the transfer of land. Con-
Sequently, titles are not always good. and

CONDITION OF THE TREASURY.
THE PROSPECTS BRIGHTER THAN
FOR MANY MONTHS.
Secretary Foster Thinks All Demands
Can be Met Without Putting
on New Taxes.
Special to the RECORD UNION.

Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
New YORK, Oct. 7.-Secretary Foster
of the Treasury is breathing easier over
the condition, says aWashington dispatch
to the Herald, than he mas at any time
since the adjournment of the Fifty-first
Congress year and half ago. The pros
pect of getting through another fiscal
year without putting on new taxes or
borrowing money to run the Government
is brighter than for many months. The
very thing which the Mckinley bill was
passed to preventive increase in i'm
ports of merchandise-is what is giving
the Secretary hope. For many months
after the Mckinley bill had been put on
the statute books the imports declined
and the customs receipts fell off under
tile influence of high duties. But the re-
bound has come, and proved again that
the laws of trade are even stronger than
those of the Repu bican Congress. The
customs receipts for September jumped
from Sl4, l20, $40 in 1891 TO SI7, ,209,947 this
year, and the receipts for the quarter
ending September 30th have increased
5000, 900, and made those for the last
quarter a round $4,000 900. This may
not mean S400, ,000, 900 for the year, but in
the opinion of Treasury experts it means
a close approach to that figure, and it ap-
paT6uGly ulcdnS enough 10 keep the
Treasury from a deficit before July Ist
next.
The expenditures for the last quarter
were S9S, ,247 ,9S5, but, except in the item
Of pensions, they were kept below the
figures of one year ago.
The pension expenditures continue to
be the cloud on the horizon, and instead
of being no bigger than a mans hand,
they are as big as 100000 hands, reaching
out for the bounty Of the Nation. The
expenditures for pensions during the last
quarter were SIC, ,3S7 ,574, which Indicates
a total Of SlO0,000,0 600 for the year.
The House OF Representative origi-
nally proposed to appropriate Sl35, 600 600,
and the Senate raised 1t to Sl47, 600 900.
but it is evident deficiency of at least
Sl3,000,0 900 will have to be covered at the
short session this winter. The net cash
balance when the appropriations OF
Reeds Congress expired June 30th was
SO, ,692, ,371. It has now been pulled ND to
S3l, So, ,9lS. The actual situation is even
better than this difference would indi-
cate, for the items of money i'll banks''
and ''worn-ou' silver have been re-
duced, with a corresponding increase in
money for immediate use. These two
items footed up about S27, ,400,0 0O0 on June
30th, while they now have been reduced
TO S24,000,000. The margin OF free money
on the books now, therefore, is nearly
SS,G00, 600, where little while ago there
was less than nothing. The balance is a
matter of bookkeeping, and there are
other sums in the treasury set against the
demand of liabilities, which have kept
the treasury from practical bankruptcy.
