EDMUND RussrLps LECTURE.

NH. EpNuNp RUSSELL delivered the
ilrst OF his series OF lectures ON Delsart'
Ism, at tho rooms OF the Conservatory
OF Music, In the Postofiice building,
last evening. Tho subjectwas "Ihe
Teachings OF Delsarte." The room
WINS well filed. The lecturer made his
appearance at $3.50. He spoke from an
elevated position In the corner Of the
room. His shapely form was clothed
in a black dress suit. His face, which
is closely shaved, Is not particu'
larry atrlklng, the ieatures be-
ing short and somewhat round
aud, taken altogether, not specially ex'
preserve. His hair Is punched on tho
forehead, this popularity being liable
to attract attention, on account ofbeing
uncommon.
Mr.. Russell designstes his Lectures
as ''talks," which il appropriate, be-
cause, aside from his PHI steal gesticu'
lasions, there WAS nothing oratorical
about his speech. There was no soul
In his uttersnoes, and they therefore
made no play upon the emotions OF the
audience. IA consequence his
chnnges OF facial expression had the
appearance Of being mechanical. Yet
there was certain charm about the
lecture which held the audience. This
evidently arose from the TACT that II
was to n considerable extent anecdotal
and comprised large number OF
varied statements, the speaker darling
from one feature OF his subject to the
other with such celebrity that tho mind
Of the listener hal no opportunity to
pall. Then the audience were not re-
quired 10 engage In any great mental
exertion, as the enunciatlOns were moi
profound.
The lecture, which was n clear ex
position Of Delsartism, embodied
many useiully suggestions In relation
to the use Of the body Us an aid In thu
expression OF thought and feeling. II
this utilization Of the human system
4. was demonstrated by example tina
tho whole structure ought to be brough
into play, and that the hands an,
arms occupied subordlhate place II
this relation. What made the leclur'
specially interesting was that defect

the COLLAPSE OF TIE SENSATION.


was sprung upon the public on Mon.
day. The salient points In the at
tempted deal with the Union Pacific
railroad company, by which certain
documents, which gave away the
arguments and evidence relied upon
BY the Chamber Of Commerce In iw
suit against the railroads, were TO 10
be turned over to the Union Pacihc
officers for a valuable consideration,
were given to our readers last evening
Az we then informed the public, the
matter was Ia the hands OF the
Board Of Directors OF the Chamber OF
Commerce, and the question Of the
purported connection OF Secretary
Sears was 10 be thoroughly examined.
We advised suspe nsion OF Judgment
until both sldes Of the afiaif were fuliy
brought to light. We also expressed the
opinion that the case wouli 80 on,
notwithstanding this sensation, that
had been created, and that while
Mr.. Sears had received severe
blow IA the conduct OF MS
son, II would be shown tha'
his own course had been incomphtible
with the idea that he would betfay
the Chamber Of Commerce. or do any
thing to damage tho cause TO when
he had devoted his energies and 'x'
perience 30 earnestly.
Particulars OF the meeting held on
Monday evening, at which the Board
Directors and the Transportation Blu
reau OF the Chamber were present,will
be found In another part Of this paper
They show that we were correct In
on, statement and our opinion. Those
gentlemen fully and completely exone-
rated Secretary Sears from the sus'
plclcn that cast upon him by a local
morning paper, and expressed their
full confidence In his integ rliy. They
also declared their intention OF con-
tinuing the case which he IL conduct
Ing until satisfactory termination Is
reached.

could find places equally comfortable and
easy of access; but there are men who get
up from the breakfast table and say to their
wives, "Now, I can't stand this sort of
thing any longer, "and the good little woman
knows that the spell is on him. He goes
off up stairs ant gets out trunk, and then
from the depths of a far-off closet he hauls
down some disreputable old clothes and lugs
out gun and lot of rods and fly cases and
ammunition and lays them tenderly in the
bottom of the trunk. He gets "a shockingly
bad hat" and pipe which Madam will not
allow in the settled part of the house and
strange cases made of canvas which carry
the charms and fetiches of the sportsman.
These he places in the trunk. He then over
hauls his exit" He sticks CIV hooks" up
in rows in the pillow shams if Madam is not
looking
Where Good Little Wife Appears.
He puts tallow covered cartridges on the
lace bed cover and then carefully laws q
heavy pair of very greasy and dirty cow
hide shoes on his wife's most choice piece
of upholstered furniture. In the midst of
this in walks the lady of the house, the
partner of his joys and sorrows. In this
case the joys and sorrows do not mix.
Madam says: "Now Jack-I think it is
awful for you to put those nasty old things
on my bed-you have no consideration,
etc, etc." and poor Jack transfers them all

on the sands, so we must keep her very
quiet to-day"
Il will say nothing to disturb her; but,
Mrs. CLYDE, it must be as Miriam wishes
about the time, mean. would not, for
any selfish feelings of my own, have her
worried into ANYTHING she did not wish.
"My dear young man, you do not know
the feminine heart Girls-women--liket to
have little pressure on such subjects from i,,
their lovers and parents In fact, the like
to be wooed and won, seemingly against
their wills all the time. I am sure Miriam
is greatly attached to you. She would not
have accepted your proposal if it had not
been So"
"You make me very happy" said Sir
James, and again he blushed. II care for
Miriam very much-I never cared for any
one beforehand my greatest wish on earth
is to have her for my wife,.
"Well, your greatest wish will soon be
accomplished then. Few men or women
marry their first love, and Miriam ought to
be proud, therefore, at having won yours
81 am proud, at Jny rate, TOTO be
loved by her. 1 always feel that lam not
good enough for her. Still will try"
'Don't spoil her; that is all 1 am afraid
of" said Mrs Clyde, graciously, as Sir
James paused, and while she spoke she rose
to leave the room. "Now will send her
to you," she added, sand hope you will
stay and dine with u.s. Sir james,"
He was only too happy to promise to do
80; only too happy when Miriam, pale and
embarrassed, entered the room to have her,
as he expressed it, "all to himself" But
he took her mothers advice, and did not
speak on any exciting subject. He told her
about the Colonels "big at home" the day
before, and how proud and pleased he was
to hear how good she had been ''to the poor
soldier"
1T was nothing" said Miriam, with q
sudden blush.
''It was what not one girl in . hundred
would have done"

and goes over to see her friend, the wife of
the first man, and says: "Your husband
has been with the doctor great deal OF late,
and am afraid he will entice him away
this summer or fall, and did so want him
to go with me to Mount Desert"
"Well, you know have no influence with
Mr.. B. He insists on going off to these
strange places-he always has and sigh to
think that he probably always will" con-
doles the little woman.
81 am sure then that I can do nothing
with the doctor-he too, will go-it is 50 un-
fortunate to have such tastes"
From that time on the doctors health be-
gins to fail. A brother physician recon-
mends the "woods," and while it is so un-
fortunate to be compelled to leave his pa
tients, yet his health demands it, and one
fine morning the man and his friend, the
doctor, are missed from the haunts of men.
In few days the trim, well-groomed city
men are no longer recognizable. They sit
in the forwa end of the canoes with a
stumpy beard and bulldog pipe, dressed
in dirty, greasy clothes, while behind the
pans, blankets, packs and guns sits a strange,
dark-skinned, beetle-browed, halfbreed,
with scraggy hair and bristling beard The
canoes ceave the mirrowed waters, while
the yellow reflections mix with the Vandyck
shadows Of the overhanging forest in the
lake. They are happy.
SETTLED Fact of Man Nature.
It would be interesting to understand this
man so prone to these lapses of savagery.

that he can 60 hunting once or twice year
and be his own natural self Tor a space.
When the buds openand the grass shoots,
and the sunlight thaws out his mind, he
will manifest uneasiness and become un-
settled. You can begin to detect him then.
He wont care about the frost and peach crop,
or the candidates, or the Anarchists, but
will be morbid and 60 on incoherently about
brown-hackels, No. shot, and improved
Winchester models and other proftless SUBJ
jects.
Late in the season he gets down his
double barrel and his rifle and begins to oil
them up. He takes out his pea-jacket and
his obtained moccasins and his jaegers. He
is constantly writing letters to 'Sam Bush
craft, Mountain Pine, Missoula county,
Montana" or to "Pierre Antoine, Tennis
tamang. Ontario, Canada" and receives
replies in brown or yellow envelopes signed
with his (x) mark. Why he becomes so
interested in these half savage men in the
waste places only he can understand. This
curious person does not want to 20 with

shrewd. But at this moment the sleeping
man stirred uneasily.
Miriam, come away. come away" he
muttered in the unnatural tones of slumber;
she is dead-I saw his eyes sstaring-Miriam
come away"
Evidently some scene of horror was pass
ing before his brain, for he clenched his
hands and knit his dark brows, and his eK-
preston changed. An orderly who had sat
up with him during the night. and was now
watching him also, said in low voice to
the doctor:
"He's rambled on like that, and talked
nonsense good deal in the night, sir.
The doctor silently nodded his head,
and put his fingers on the sick mans wrist,
and at his touch Dare started and awoke.
"Well, my man, how are you feeling?"
asked the doctor.
For a moment Dare made no answer; he
seemed scarcely to understand, and then he
smiled family.
81 feel weak, sir,' he said.
"That is to be expected" answered DR..
Reed, and then he proceeded with his medi-
cal examination, and presently sent the
orderly for something he wanted, and when
they were alone he once more spoke to
Dare.
"Well, 1 gave your note to the young
lady," he said; "and this morning 1 had q
letter from her, inclosing this note for you."
Dare eagerly put out his hand and
clutched the small note the doctor handed
to him.
'Thank you, sir, do not know how to
thank vou," he said, quickly.
Don't mind me, read your note" smiled
the doctor; and having got this permission,
Dare nervously opened the envelope and
read the four simple words it contained with
eager eyes
''Do not be afraid.
DR.. Reed had turned away his head for
moment but he was curious and quick
sighted, and as he glanced once more at the

tell the maid that she must ''go through

been packing his nasty old traps and has
nearly ruined everything"
Jack is ready and is driven off to the sta
tion, where he bids Ma1am "goodby" and
is rolled away happy in the knowledge that
in a few days he will be sleeping on a brush
heap with rude men and surrounded by mos
quitoes and smoke, with tough, soapy bread
and black coffee for food.
Madam explains to lady friend that

To develop the real sportsman the en-
vironment must be favorable at a very early
age. II he is favorably situated he becomes
possessed Of an unbounded enthusiasm and
more tools of the sporting craft than has q
dentist in his

A great many people are now growing up
in America whose tendencies are an IL
legitimate cross between an English battue
and an American summer hotel-they are a
sort of "arrested development" between
true hunters and fishermen and people who
are not financially able to buy country
place. All such are spurious and not to be
considered seriously The genuine Amer
ican lover Of the woods did not gather his
theories of how to be happy from shooting

He first passed his boyhood in a country
where the squirrels were pretty thick and
the trout would bite and the old gentlemen
were never ceasing in telling how they
killed "the biggest buck ever sot my
eyes onto" He then tried the Adirondacks
until they became infested with women and
summer hotels. Then he tried Maine, but
Maine got filled up with persons who wore
two peaks in their hats and ate their dinner
on table, and the guides became servants
instead of woodsmen. Then he discovered
Canada and the Rocky Mountains, and away
in the heart OF their wiidernesses you will
find his "bark lean-to' where the timber
grows the highest over the little spring, and
where the ''dude has ceased from troubling

food all cooked in q disgusting fashion, he
sleeps in sort Of kennel like farmers
dog-lying on brush and with the smoke
blowing all through and around him. He
freezes nearly to perishing every morning
he goes to bed wet to the hide and paddles
up stiff currents or tolls under 60-pound
pack all day and his only reason seems 10
be desire to slay.
You doubtless all know one of that sort of
men-ask him why? In all probability he
will fold himself in his robe OF superiority
and simply pity your vanished ignorance
and will not deign to reply. He will con-

and sentiment--but if you would know why

A PROMISING YOUNG ARTIST.

HI. Novel and Economical Way of Dis
posing of His Wares
Chicago MALL
Chicago has a promising young artist who
has developed traits which should entitle
him to diplomatic supremacy. For some
time he has been engaged in painting
number of game pieees-canvases with
representations of birds. rabbits, etc. He
had met with very poor success in disposing
of his paintings. For days and nights he
sat with his head pressed between his
hands endeavoring to evolve some plan for
disposing of them.
One evening he attended a party which
was given by lady acquaintance. Various
topics were under discussion, and finally the
subject of pet dogs was brought up. Mrs.
A., who lives on Michigan avenue, and
whose husband gives her several thousand
dollars per year for pin money, remarked
that her little pet terrier was not one-half SO
we'll bred as he should be because he was al
ways hungry, and-horrors-he had an in
satiable appeti lite tor raw meat The young
artist heard her make that remark and q
plan at once was formulated in his head. He
knew she had peuchant for art-or thought
she had-and invited her to visit his studio
on the following afternoon, stating. that ne
had some beautiful game pieces to show heE
That evening he purchased quantity OF
raw beef, which he jealously carried home
under his coat The next forenoon ne spent
in industriously rubbing the raw meat over
the surfaces of the game pieces. Mrs. A.
callell, accompanied by her little terrier,
and expressed great pleasure at his work,
but when the little terrier shifted hungrily
at the paintings of the birds and rabbits,
she was wonderstruck.
81 believe he actually thinks they are
alive" she said, With wonder in her eyes
IT am very proud to have deceived the
animal by my art, he moGestly said.
And she purchased the lot at . snug
figure.

1t is curious fact that the circulation Of
foreign periodicals is waning in this eoun-
try. Time was when Punch and the leading
German comic weeklies had great vogue
here, but now the demand Is we'll nigh dead
because of the growth OF strictly American
comic papers. In nothing in this country
has the development been greater or more
rapid than in periodical literature, and we
are actually beating the British on their
own ground with our illustrated weekly
papers and monthly magazines.

Buffalo Enqutrer.1
We are accustomed to think Of London as
the worst crowded city in the world, but it
is said that the most overcrowded block of
Whitechapel streets and alleys covering the
same space does not contain more than half
as many people as some blocks of Eastside
New York tenements in the region OF Third
street, and avenues B and G. According to
the census the block bounded by Second
and Third streets and avenues B and G con-
tains over 8, 500 people, enough to populate
a very respectable country village or a
booming young Western city. At one time
last summer there were five children in
hospitals who had fallen off fire escapes in
this block. This was explained by the fact
that the population slept not only on the
roof, but even on fire escapes in the summer
time
