would resent an unqualified apology.
In accordance with the rule of diplo-
nacy, Minister Egan may be recalled
from Santiago, but it would not indi-
cate in the least any reflection upon his
course by this government, He will
come home, it is said, If he comes, only
because his attitude as minister of the
United States at Santiago has been so
loyal and aggressive that it has in
censed the interests at that court, an
tagonistic to those of that country,
which were sufficiently powerful to in
fuence the government there to ask his
removal. Advices from Santiago show
that the Amerlcan residents in Chih
Are In sympathy with Egan
and that other foreign residents wonder
how the United States can continue
friendly relations with a government,
the minister of which holds such ad-
verse sentiments as those which have
been expressed there. Another reason
which il is said was alleged for asking
for EgaHs recall was the note sent to
the Chihan government by Egan on
Oct. &C., which Senior Malta designated
as aggressive in design and violent in
language This was the first official
notice tnken by Egan of the Baltimore
affair, and it was prepared by express
instructions of Assistant Secretary
Wharton under date of Oct. %. This
letter of Instructions was the one gen.
orally attributed to President Harrison
and Mr.. Egan's note to Senior Malta was
an almcst exact reproduction of the
terms employed in it. This incident.

''It's the paymaster's advance guardr'
exclaimed Dan joyfully, as he rose up
and hastily approached the road.
"Halt" came the sharp command as
the youth advanced. "Who comes thereY
Dan stopped abruptly, startled by the
sudden challenge. The horsemen had
come to halt, and sat upon their horses,
their bright weapons visible through the
gloom.
"It is Dan Riggsby." faltered the
youth. 81 would like to see the paymas-
ter Is this part of his guardy'
Come forward and let us see you,"
commanded one of the men, and Dan
hastily obeyed.
What business can you have with
the paymaster, and how do you know
that he is to pass along this roadY' ques-
toned one of the men, eying the youth
keenly.
Dan hesitated. He was not sure the
men before him were wat he had sup
posed them to be. He did not wish to
make any mistake.
"If you please" said Dan, Il would
rather wait until the paymaster arrives
before make my business known"
Very we'll: we'll remain here till the
main body arrives"
In a short time the tramp of hoofs and
the sound of wheels could be heard up
the road, then a line of mounted men
appeared in sight.
At signal from the man who had
been conversing with Dan the moving
column of troops came to halt.
what is it, asked one who appeared
to be an officer, spurring his horse for
ward to where the five were stopped in
the road.
Here is boy that wishes to see the
paymaster on important business" was
the answer.
That is rather strange" was the
comment. HAS he made his business
known
"No: he says he prefers to wait till
he can see the paymaster, lieutenant"
We'll. bring him back to the ambu-
lance" replied the officer in an impa-
tient tone. He must be brief in what
he has to say"
The officer wheeled his horse and rode
back along the line as he spoke, fol-
lowed by Dan and the four men COM
posing the advance guard.
AS Dan made his way along the line
he noticed that there were about thirty
men in the company. They were
formed in line by twos, and near the
center of the column stood the ambu-
lance to which We're hitched four mules.
A man got out of the vehicle as Dan
and his escorts approached.
What's up, lieutenant?" he asked.
Here's a young man that wishes to
see you" replied the officer as Dan was
ushered forward into the paymaster's
presence. He was very particular and
refused to make his business known till
he saw You.
Il only wished to be sure that this was
the paymaster and his guard before
spoke. said Dan, advancing and address
ing that individual
We'll, | am ready to hear what you
have to say, but You must be brief"
II only wish to say that there will be
an attempt made to rob you at the Dry
wood ford, replied Dan briefly.

Prehistoric Giants.

Near the Mediterranean coast, not far
from Nice, are some grottoes which are
remarkable for the prehistoric remains
found in them. The value of these
grottoes as field of prehistoric research
was recognized twenty years ago. They
were at that time purchased by Mr..
Emile Riviere, who, however, neglected
to work them, and sold them again to a
quarry master, who, on removing some
of the rock, unearthed some of the re-
mains. Since then the grottoes have
been in litigation much of the time and
no one has been able properly to investi-
gate them.
At present three skeletons found there
are figuring in the law courts. One is
of man whose estimated height is
feet inches. The head of the skeleton
is missing. Another is the skeleton of a
woman feet inches tall, and the third
is the remains Of youth. These added
to previous discoveries make seven skel-
etons of prehistoric men unearthed uI
to the present time in these caves. The
Italian government has not attempted
to exercise any rights in the matter.
Up to 1875 Mr.. Riviere had discovered
the skeletons of one man and two chill
dren, which were some twenty-nine feet
below the level of the caves and were
surrounded by undoubted paleolithic
implements. The bed is compact one
of stone.-Chicago News.

The Human Journey of Lathing Nail.
About fifty-four years ago Washing
ton Megahan, contractor and builder of
this place, was working at his trade,
that of plasterer, in Blair county, when
he accidentally swallowed lathing
nail. He was very much alarmed about
the accident at the time, but as he felt
no evil results from the extraordinary
diet, in the course of two or three weeks
he had forgotten all about it. Recently,
however, Mr.. Megahan has felt pecu-
liar sensation in the palm of his left
hand, and one day last week he was able
to feel the outline of small nail, and
then it was that he remembered having
swallowed the lathing nail fifty-four
years before. The nail is rapidly work
ing its way through the flesh of his
hand, and when it has worked up under
the skin Mr. Wegahan will have physi-
clan remove it.-Somerset Herald

The most unique marriage ever per

Six carriages were occupied by the we'd
ding party, but the vehicles were sup,

slowly moved through the cemetery,
When the Hammond lot was reached
the graves were strewn with flowers
and the wedding was quickly per
formed, the bride standing upon the
grave of her mother and the groom

PINKERToN'S STATEMENT


NEW YORK, July 9.-Robert Pink
erton, chief of the New York branch
of the detectiveagency, said: among
the most absurd stories is the yarn
about our deceiving our men whom
we sent to Homestead. They knew,
every one of them, where they were
going. They were to 60 to the Car
negie works and guard them. In our
contracts with the men certain papers
were drawn up and signed, which
themselves would have been sufficient
to show the men what they were be-
ing engaged for. Besides, most of the
men were old hands with us who
knew fully what strike work was. We
have been engaged in this business
for twenty years, and everyone knows
what work Is to be expected
in such cases when mob
is to be faced. The new men
whom we engaged were brought
in by our old hands. The talk about
advertising for recruits is all rot. No
such advertisements were ever in
serted, and before any of our men
had were taken on the papers had been
full of the Homestead troubles for a
week or so, and they all knew what
was ahead for them.
"Areyou satisfied with the outcome
of your expedition ?"
"Well, I can't say that we are very
well satisfied with being driven out as
we were by strikers, but otherwise we
have nothing to reproach ourselves
for"

MIND READER.

Prot. Petite Goshaun, the celebrated
mind reader, gave this week two exhi-
billions of his wonderful powers in our
Opera House. In order to give an idea
of his work, he first began on Monday
evening at about 4 o'clock to give an
open street exhibition. By invitation,
two reputed gentlemen of the town
were requested by him to 60 out togeth-
Ell and hide any object anywhere they
pleased, and then return to him; and
that blindfolded, he would go and find
the hidden object. This was done.
The object was hidden three blocks
away, and the two parties hiding same
returned where NJ. Goshaun stood in
side of Capt. r. r. McBride's store.
The Professor was thcn blindfolded,
and taking hold of the hands of the two
gentlemen who had hidden the object,
went directly where the hidden object
was, stopped down and passing his
hand i'll a small opening just above the
bottom sill at the corner of judge
Blake's office, brought forth a pearl
button which the two gentlemen admit
ted was the object they had hidden.
mere was dSSuleuly HO posSIoIe ciidHce
for trickery in this matter, and no one
could have conveyed to him where the
button had been hidden.
Suffice it to say that during the two
evenings performances at the Opera
House, with, we are told, only one ex-
ception, everybody present, even the
most skept;cal, were convinced thai
there was 70 trickery in the wonder
full mind reading of Prot. Goshaun.
