CEN. Boo1H,s ARRIVAL.
Enthusiastic SalvatIoRlsts Welcome Thei
 Returned Leader.


 LONDON, Feb. 13.--Animated scenes prevailed at Waterloo, Victoia and Pad dington railway stations, from whence thousands of Salvationists, some in uni form and some without, but all dis tingufshed by the same degree of en- thusiam, started in special trains to meet Gen. Booth on his return from his tour in Eastern countries.
 The height of ambition of the vast majority of them seemed to be to sing they possessed, and to shake their tam bourines and sound their triangles as an accompaniment. There was no hitch whatever in their departure.
 Gen. Booth came overland from Brin- disi to Cherbourg in company with Mir. Bremyel Booth, who went to Brindisi to meet him.
 The general left Cherbourg for South ampton in 8 specially chartered steam boat, which arrived at Cherbourg from England with Mir. Herbert Booth, Com missioner Booth-Tucker and Mrs. Booth Tucker, Commissioner Cadman, . Com- missioner Castleton, Commissioner Howard, Col. Nicol, Col. Dowdle, six of the leading officers of the army, on board to meet the general.
 In the meantime Salvationsts from most parts of the country poured into Southampton in order to give Che Gen. eral a rousing reception. Special ex- cursions were run from London, Brigh- ton, Portsmouth, Yeovil, Plymouth, Exeter, and other towns.
 As the Salvationists reached Southamp- ton they went on board large steamships in waiting. Of these steamships there were twelve each able to carry at least 1000 persons. The steamships, in fleet form, sailed down the Selent as far as Calshot Castle, to await Gen. Booths special boat.
 When the Generals steamship was sighted, the others formed up in two lines, and, with bands playing, colors flying and general Hallelujah going up to heaven, the whole procession form ed in double line after the General and escorted him into Southampton harbor.
 Those of the Salvationists who did not go afioat awaited Gen. Booth at South ampton.
 Gen. Booth is we'll, but weary after his journey. The display of rockets in hon or of his arrival resembled naval review.

New Haven May Have a Bass Ball Team
 Next Season.

New Haven May Have a Bass Ball Team
 Next Season.
 There is some talk of reviving profes- sional base ball in New Haven the com ing season. With the experience of the past three years in view there is little probability of a team being located thereHfor some time to come. The Munson Brothers, paper box manufac- turers, who practically owned all the stock in last years team, are out of base ball for good, and Manager Burnham has not yet succeeded in enthusing any other capitalists in the scheme. He has approached the Hubinger Brothers, the well known starch manufacturers and horse owners and they have the matter of backing a team under advise ment. It is said that they look favor ahly upon the plan of making Hamilton park into base ball field. The Howard avenue grounds, which were made into a first class base ball field three years ago will probably be rendered useless for that purpose in short time, as the city IS going to cut street through it. The Driving park lis a long distance from the center of the city and the Hubingers question whether it would pay to run a team, to play out there.

RECEIVER FAY's REPORT.
Startling Evidence of Fraud Against Bay
 State League Officers.


 . BOSTON, Feb. 13.-C. K. Fay, Receiver of the Bay State League, an independ- ent orders has made his report to Judge Barker in the Supreme Court.
 He says the evidence of fraud and dis honesty on the part of the present Su- preme officers is startling. These are: E. M. Harlow, Supreme President; J. w. Hamilton, Supreme Secretary and H. B. French, Supreme Treasurer. These men for a valuable consideration paid to the original officers, were allowed to take their places.
 "The original certificate holders, !" says the report, t'consisted largely of poor working people, a majority of them women with little knowledge of money matters who have been wantonly and cruelty cheated by those who took their money, but who as trustees were bound to use it honestly even if the visionary scheme which they presented so plausi- bly did meet with inevitable disaster. It is my firm belief that French and Hamilton bought their official positions in this corporation for the express pur- pose of plundering the certificate hold eFs.'' cs
 Mir. Fay has recovered assets amount ing to $294, 600.

 LONDON, Feb. 13..-A dispatch from Vienna says that Khedive AEbas requires that the Sultan shall send him a firman formally recognizing and confirming his authority, and that Abbas has sent a message to that effect to Constantinople.
 The Sultan's reply has been that the Khedive must come in person to receive the frman.
 To this Abbas objects, as he thinks the Sultan might take occasion to extort some concession. It is claimed that France and Russia are intriguing against Great Britain at the Sultan's court, and have inspired the course of that poten- tate in regard to the Khedive, and that the issue has become d trial of strength between the powers concerned

During inventory we find there are several lines that must be closed out, to make them GO we have put the prices surprisingly low. Do you know that a thing may be amusingly cheapa Do you know that prices may go SO low as to go laughingly low It's rather comical idea, but we can give you the best evil dence of its truth. We have put lot of $30 Overcoats into our TWELVE DOL LAR lot, it's rediculous, but it's true. We have filled our south show window with fine Puff Scarfs, $1.O0, $1.25, $1.5O, you choice for 50 cents. Sometimes little blood letting doesn't hurt a patient: sometimes little cutting in prices has an invigorating effect on trade. Our sale of Seal Caps at g, and $15 to $25 OvercQats for $12, boomed our business in January. We will give bargains that will make February lively.

Railroad Growth I'm Forty Years.

Forty years ago, in 1859, the railway
mileage of the United States was 1905.
Kansas and Nebraska alone have "A, 1872
miles OF railroad at this time. In the
spring Of 1851 the Erie railroad was com
pleted from New York to Lake Erie and in
1852 the Michigan Central was completed
from Lake Erie to Chicago In 1853 the
first continuous line of 1000 miles of rail
way was formed between Boston and Chi
cago In 1858 the Pittsburg and Fort
Wayne railroad opened its important line
from Pittsburg to Chicago, completing the
second great trunk line from New York to
Chicago.
In the states west Of Ohio no railroad OF
Importance was constructed previous to
1919 The first line running east and west
through Indiana was opened in 1853; the
next line, the Ohio and Mississippi, in
1857. The first railroad in Illinois was I'M
dertaken in 1889, but it was abandoned
after a few miles had been constructed, and
mule power supplanted the locomotive as
a measure Of economy. The first railroad
to connect Lake Michigan with the Mis-
sissippi river was the Chicago and Rock
Island, in February, 1854 The Burlington
and Quincy railroad reached the Missis
sippi river in 1886, and the Milwaukee and
st, Paul in 1865 1t was not until 1859
that the Hannibal and st. Joseph, the
pioneer railroad Of the greater west, was
completed TO the Missouri river at st. 10
seph. Six years Letter, in 1865, the Chicago
and Northwestern railroad, which had dis
tanced all competitors in the race toward
Omaha, was completed TO Council Bluffs.

FETTERED.

Within the room that soft hands daily dress
With all that speaks of love and tender care.
And near the easement, where the grass
sweet air
Steals gently in, with dreamiest caress;
sit in letters which my God hath wound
About my limbs, the heavy chains Of pain;
The door is guarded by his angels twain,
And l sit, weak and helpless and fast bound.
Patience and Love are those that guard my
door.
And Patience counsels me to wait and pray
Ali but the flesh is spent with suferingsi
Patience is hard-but Love, ne'er heard before,
Whispers within my ear, "Bear every day,
For my sake, only that which each day
brings"

A Case of Plain Robbery,

II is time, says the N. Y. World, to
put refined sugar on the free list, to
stop the robbery of the merican
people by the sugar trust. Here
are the facts:
The sugar trust now owns every
active sugar refinery in the United
States except three. Those three
are owned by large stockholders in
the trust and are operated Sin har-
mony" with it. The trust has,
therefore, an actual monopoly of
the business in this country. The
actual value of the plants it controls
is less than $35, 100000, but the
trust is capitalized at $S5,0OO,OOO'
and it will pay this year 81 per cent
on that false capitalization, or 70
per cent. on actual investment.
It was extorting less while it had
opposition, but since it bought ur
the remaining opposition it has
deliberately added three-eighths OF
cent a pound to refined sugar. In
other words, it has levied an addi'
tional tax of $22,5OO,OOO a yea
upon the people of the country wh'
consume sugar.
This is extortion, pure and simple
There is nothing whatever given il
return for the money taken, and thu
trust is enabled to take it solely b.
virtue of the tariff duty of one-hal
cent pound OH foreign refined SUI
gar. Even if foreign sugar were OF
the free list the cost of bringin,
it here-about one-eighth cent
pound-would enable the trust t.
undersell foreign competitors. Th
additional tariff duty enables it t.
extort more than $20,0 900 a yea
from the people.
The Government gives the trustit
raw materials free. Nay, more;
taxes the people to pay two cents
pound of the purchase price of a
raw sugar bought by the trust frol
American producers. Why shOul
the Government also give the trus
means of extorting $4,000, 900
: year over and above naturally Ell
) ormous profitsp Why should Their
, not be bill presented at once t
put refined sugar on the free list,
that the sugar trust may be con
e PEELED to sell sugar at a reasonab
: price and a fair profit? Why shout
an organization of enormously ric
. monopolists be specially authorize
by law to rob The people in tn
