There can be nc excuse for such wide
severance. That q brother or sister should
rather turn to stranger for assistance in
the hour of need than to their own kin is
a far greater disgrace than honorable pow

The hawks anger was apparently in

How Fresh Should Fresh Eggs Be ?

How comes it that English people. who

fortnight old or more? The question is
propounded by MIR. Edward Brown OF the

declines to eat eggs that are more than
three days old. and he bids us observe that
an egg to be worth eating should be abso-

AXELnAND THE TRAMPs.
Two Vagabonds Attempt to Hang
a Lumberman.

Axel Johnson, stalwart Swedish
lumberman, came to this city about a
week ago. He came for the purpose of
having good time, and he had it. He
spent all his money in Oriental revel
rles, and yesterday awoke to the reali
zation that he was busted" He wan
dered out as far as the North side juno
ton, and. being sleepy, dropped into
barn whose door was conveniently open
and fell asleep in the hay. 1t appears
he intruded upon the privacy Of num-
Der of tramps who were enjoying
Sunday nap in the barn. AXel was too
sleepy, however, TO notice them, aud
slept on as sweetly as babe while they
pinched him and tickled him with wiSpS
of hay. Finding they could not wake
him. the trampS bethought themselves
of a fendish amusement. They pro-
cured long and stout rope, one end of
which they tied around AXePs neck
and the other end around beam.
The tramps began to hoist away at
the rome. AXel awoke to find himself
dangling between the hay and the top
of the barn. The tramps were about to
hang him and Axel found his tongue
forcing itself through his teeth and MS
senses leaving him. He made grand
struggle for life, kicking and squirming
around on the rope like an eel. One of
the tramps grabbed him by the legs and
attempted to hold him, but AXel kicked
him in the face. The tramp fell back
in the hay with howl of pain and the
other dropped the end OF the rope in
sheer CONSERVATION. AXel fell all in a
heap in the hay and the tramps, evi-
dently bent on killing him, drew knives
and started for him with the ferocity of
tigers. The fight that ensued was hot
one and Axel would, no doubt, have
been killed had he not managed to
break loose and run. The tramps fol-
lowed, but they night as well have at

SWINDLED THE DUTCH.
A Couple OF Swindlers Do Up a
Colony

DENVER, Colo. Dec. 1S.-Misfortune
attends the first effort to settle Dutch
colony in Colorado. The promoters
of the enterprise, Messrs. Van Der
Hoogt and Zoutman, are just now re-
ceiving the anthemas of the simple
HolIanders. Van Der Hoogt and Zout-
man, some months ago, organized what
is known as the HOLLAND Immigrant
Company" which claims a paid-up
capital of 100000. The purpose of
the company was to bring over families
from the old country and settle them on
lands in the San Luis valley. For this
purpose they contracted for $4,000 acres
of land from T. G. Henry, the big ditch
builder, at $11.50 per acre. Mr.. Henry
was to be paid small amount in cash,
S75.O0O in stock of the company at par,
and to accept notes on long time for the
balance. In due time $50 families were
brought over from Holland by the
promoters of the enterprise, 1t is
now charged that Van Der Hoogt and
ZOutman are pennlleSS aGventurerS;
that the Holland immigration company
has not one cent of paid-up capital, and
that the whole affair is sWindle from
beginning to end. The cOlonists to a
man are up in arms against Van Der
Hoogt and Zoutman, and say they were
brought to this country through mis-
representa- ton. They were being re-
quired to pay S26 per acre for land the
promoters were getting for S1l.50, and
their money was being used by Van Der
HOogt and Zoutman for their own per-
sOnal benefit, the colonists getting moth
ing in return.

M. M. Murray, who played the part of
Robert Carlton, the villain, was so ar
tistic in his work tnat he was hissed
and hooted by the gallery gods. Murray
ought to feel eOmplimented at such

Charlotte Ray, in the part of Hester

only fair.
The series of symphony concerts by
the Dahz orchestra was auspiciously
inaugurated yesterday afternoons a large
and fashionable audience being present

The programme was a delightful one,
the selections being Of a more sprIghtly
nature than has been customary at these
concerts. This departure was tried as
an experiment. and met with favor if
the applause bestowed can be taken as
the criterion.
Carl KohImann, the trombone soloist,
played with much finish and the soft
ness and purity of his tones were the
noticeable merit of his performance.
The string orchestra number was an
other feature of the programme that

IT'S "A GREAT SCANDAL.
Names of Panama Br ibe Takers
Soon to BE Given.


Soon to BE Given.
PARIS, Dec. 1S.-The report was
circulated last evening that Senator
Jules Guichard would be made presi-
dent of the Suez Canal company, in
place of Charles de Lesseps, now in
Mazas prison awaiting trial for COM
plicity in the Panama canal frauds. Ap-
plication was made to Magistrate
Fran quevllle today to release DE Les
seps, Sans-LerOy and FOntane on bail.
Respon Sible bOndsmen were ready to
sign the papers, but the magistrate re-
fused even to discuss the possibility OF
such a release. He added that nobody
would be allowed to see the prisoners
until after the examination or the docu-
ments seized in their offices. The Jour
nal understands that tomorrow the
chamber will be asked to authorize the
prosecution of several deputies. Among
the twelve persons to whom such an
authorization would apply, the journal
says, are three senators and three dep
uties, who belonged to the guarantee
syndicate. The examining magistrate
is about to summon Jules Delabave
to substantiate the charge made by
him before the chamber and the
preliminary committee OF inquiry.
This examination is likely to cause dis
astrous results in the chamber. as NJ
Delahave still maintains the truth of
his accusation that $50 deputies and SEN
ators were bought with 100000 francs
when the lottery bonds bill was under
consideration. The decisive vote in the
committee on the lottery bonds bill, he
says, was bought for 100000 francs. lie
also processes to have mine OF exact
information as to the purchase of edit
ors, one of them a foreigner, whose
price was 100000 francs. The weakness
of the case so far mas been that he has
refused to give the names OF the bribe-
takers, and when pressed for them has
taken refuge in the device OF referring
his questioners to the cabinet ministers,
who, he said, had the complete list.

AS pointed out by the GLOBE yester-
day, a whole lot of figuring and contriv-
ing and trading must be done by the
aldermen before they can keep the va
rious fights for appointment off the
floor of the council. Miner and Skoog,
as stated Yesterday, are the people who
keep the Republicans guessing. The
programme, as it now seems to be, indi

Miner and Skoog nothing, absolutely
nothing-to let them suck their thumbs,
as one alderman put it.
The Democratic aldermen caucused

their caucus was to consider certain
Miner and SkOOg, not having bowed to
straight Republican dictation with hui
mility, have incurred the displeasure of
the Republicans. The Independents
have also aroused the animosity of some
of the Democrats. The independents
have acted too we'll their parts of inde-
pendence. They have carried inde-
pendence to the point of supercilious-
ness. 1t is decreed that they be punished.
The Democrats feel disposed to combine
with the Republicans and leave Miner
and Skoog nothing. by following this
plan, the Democrats may be
able to secure a head of de-
partment or so and the chairman
ships of some important committees
all i'll all, good deal more, both in the
way Of material acquisition and in
fiuence than if they stubbornly insisted
upon maintaining party lines strictly.
If this programme goes through,
Miner and Skoog will not be merely ig-
nored, they will be humiliated. They
won't be given any sort of all appoint
ment, not even a fOremanship of
street gang. They will not be given
places on committees. And this means
that they will not be even put OH at the
tail of committees. They will cut no
more Of figure than if they were
never elected to the council. They will
be allowed to vote on roll call OF course,
because that cannot be prevented, moth
ing more.
This information comes from thor
oughly reliable source and seems to be
true. Independence, both in
elections and in the action of the elected,
is to be rebuked.
