Embarrassing Effort of Two Young so-

Embarrassing Effort OF Two Young So
ciety People to Attend Wedding.
Not long ago prominent young so
ciety lady of aneighboring city was stop
ping with friends in this city at one Of
the leading hotels. There is nothing
particularly strange in this, except the
fact that she was here led to an extreme
ly unusual and amusing incident. Stop
ping at the same hotel was society gen.
tleman of large acquaintance. Not long
ago it happened thattwo wedding recep-
tions, both in high society, occurred ON
the same evening. That evening, as he
left the dining room of the hotel, the
gentleman who figures in this story met
the young lady above referred to, and
after an exchange of courtesies asked her
if she was TO attend the wedding recep-
ton. She replied that such was her in
tention. He then asked If he should call
for her and received an affirmative an
swer.
Promptly at o'clock a carriage rolled
up to the hotel entrance, young man
alighted, was whisked up to the first
floor parlors in the elevator and in a few
minutes came down with the young
lady, attired in a bewitching costume,
upon his arm. The carriage then sped
away to the northward and in very
short time halted before a large resi-
dence in fashionable part of the city,
from the windows of which many lights
streamed.
The young lady and her escort were
at once shown to mp stairs. rooms,
where they could divest themselves of
their outer wraps before descending to
the parlors. While the gentleman was
waiting in the hall for the young lady
she suddenly appeared with a scared
look on her face, and motioning him out
of hearing of every one excitedly ex-
claimed in stage whisper:
"Do you know where we are?"
"Why, yes" said the gentleman, with
a questioning look on his face. "We
are at Mr.. T-'s."
"Well, was not invited here" said
the young lady, with growing alarm.
"Well, what did you come for them"
81 thought we were going to the re-
ception at Mr.. Ms. knew nothing
about this reception"
81 knew nothing about that recep-
tion," said the gentleman. 81 was not
invited there. / supposed you were in
vited to this one."
"And just to think" exclaimed the
| young lady, almost on the border of
tears, "my sister expects me at Ms.
| What shall we dor
The situation was so funny that both
laughed. The young man had been in.
vited to one reception and the young
lady to another, and neither knew that
there were to be two receptions on the
same night.
''I'll take you over to M-'s," said
he. At first the young lady thought she
| would go, but changed her mind, and
both returned to the hotel to await the
coming home of the formers sister.
consultation was held and it was decided
to keep the affair secret, but the story
was so good that first one and then ar
| other were ''put on"
The young man has registered an
| eternal vow that the next time he in
vites young lady to attend reception
with him he will furnish diagram show
ing the name of the family and the
number of the house. = Indianapoli:

Air Pressure ~ the Cannon's Mouth.
Experiments were made during the
last trial trip of the armed cruiser Beo-
wulf to determine the air pressure at
the mouth of q gun at the moment Of
discharge. Rabbits were placed near
the muzzles OF the guns and shots fired.
In every case the animals fell dead at
once. In order to test the probable ef-
fects of the enormous displacement of
air upon human beings figures made of
straw were used. These were torn to
pieces in every instance. The trials
were made with long bored 24-centi-

WASHINGTON. Aug. 5.-Tbe senate
waited for some time after conyening for
a message from the house and then went
into executive session and confirmed The
following nominations to be judges of
probate in Utah: s. V. Frazier. William
Goodwin, H.. w. Haight, Jacob johnson,
John Rider, A. L. Robinson, Henry
Shields. Orange Seeley, Martin Slack,
T. s. Wilson.
During the executive session message
was received from the house with the
worlds fair bill. After the doors re
opened it was land before the senate in
regular session. Vest said if he could
defeat it by any sort of parliamentary
tactics he would do SO cheerfully. 1t
was evident, however, the bill would pass,
and all he could do hope to do would be
to delay action on it. Cockrell, George,
White and Harris also said they opposed
the bill. Cullom said the people of Chic
ago were willing to let the government
share proportionately the profits of the
fair, if there be profits, but the house had
not put that condition in the bill, and it
was dangerous now To attempt to amend
it. After further colloquy, in which Cul
lom and Sherman declared the people of
Chicago had done more than they prom
lsed, the bill was put to vote and passed.

A resperare murderer.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. 6.-On June 8
last. Martin Reed, confined in the Wash
ington couHty jail for the murder of
Alexander Chappell, escaped, and was
not located until to-day. He was found
concealed in an ice-house at West
Noblestown. When discovered by Off
GERS Mcbride and Orr, Reed refused to
surrender, whereupon an attempt was
made to force the ice house door. Reed
evidently was determined not TO be taken
alive, for he opened Ere on the officers
and dangerously wounded Orr. Tho
policemen called for help, and large
number of citizens OF the place re-
spoDded, and another attack was made
on fhe 1cehouse. Shot after shot came
from Reeds revolver, and no one
dared to venture close to the lcebouse.
Finally Constable Boyle placed himself
at the head of number of others and
led an assault on the murderer's strong
hold The beseIgers were met with a
volley and Constable Boyle was instantly
killed The death of the officer spread
CONSERVATION, among the besiegers, but
they rallied and determined to set fire to
the icehouse, thus forcing Reed to sur
render. Soon the flames spread from one
end of the building to the other, but
Reed did not surrender, and seeing he
had the choice of burning to death, sur
rendering or shooting himself. he chose
the latter Reeds body was discovered
soon afterwards, burned to a crisp.
The crime for which Reed was con-
victed was the murder of Alexander
Chappell. Chappell's wife was most
attractive woman, and Reed, falling in
love with her, planned and executed the
crime in order to marry her. He gave
his victim poisoned whisky to drink.

a chance ror Tra,n Ronbers.

SAN Francisco, Aug. 5-A local paper
10 authority for the statement that $780,
100000 IN gold coin left this city for
Washington last night, guarded by SO
picked men of the railway mail service.
The paper goes on to state that the accu.
mulated store of gold coin at San Fran
cisco has been steadily increasing during
the past 90 years. When j. P. jackson
assumed the Office of sub treasurer, he
found more than $7O.0O0,0O0 In coin in
the vaults of that institution. Since then
the amount has increased to S76, 600. 900,
and the accumulation was seriously
crowding the vaults. In the mint, too,
there had been q steady accumulation.
At the time of the Chilian trouble, the
government had stored bcre more than
800, 900, 900, 1t was then that attention
was directed to the danger of carrying
such an accumulation of treasure, not
only in San Francisco, but in any seaport
city. The proposition TO remove the
bulk of the coin to the sub treasury
vaults to Washington was mooted then,
and II has come up regularly from time
to time since. finally resulting in its
shipment to Washington, under strong
guard, last night.

First session over.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-At noon the
house assembled in committee of the
whole for consideration of Durborow's g
worlds fair bill. Cummings, of New
York, attacked it bitterly. characterizing
it as an attempt to rob the treasury.
Fellows, of New York, defended the bill.
The debate continued until p NJ, when
the chairman stated that under the orders
of the house the committee must rise.
The committee rose, and the bill was re :
ported to the house. the pen ling amend
ment beng the substitute of De Almond.
of Missouri, for the first section, provid-
ing that if the Exposition deposits at the
mint enough silver bullion it shall be
coined for Exposition, IN amount not ex-
ceeding $4,000, 900. The substitute was
defeated 76 to 139. The roll was then
called on the passage of the Durborow
bill. The vote resulted: Yeas, 131 !;
nays, S3. Bailey, of Texas. made a
futile attempt to filibuster. This passes
the bill finally in the house. The bill
was ut once enrolled and taken to the
senate, but before it could be presented
she senate went into executive session.
