We have quite lost the mughouse.
This was kind of music hall.
a large room where only men were ad-
mitted, and where ale or stout was the
only drink consumed. Every man had
his pipe; there was a president. A harI
played at one end Of the room, and out
of the company present one after the
other stood up to sing. Between the
songs there were toasts and speeches
sometimes of a political kind, and the
people drank to each other from table
to table.-Walter Besant in Harper's

In Holland men can no longer be
trusted to work the switches on the rail
ways, and women now fill their places
This is a slap in the face indeed to the
male sex, and a great triumph to the adj
vocates of female labor. But we have
yet to see how the thing works. The
men say that there will now be looking
glasses in the switch boxes, and that the
women will never leave them till they
have smoothed their last hair and settled
the bow of their last ribbon, and that in
the meantime there will be collisions;
that when left to themselves they never
have been in time for the train as pas
sengers, and will not be more punctual
as pointswomen; and, finally, that if they
hear their lovers whistle anywhere II
the neighborhood they will pay very lit
tie attention to that of the locomotive
If these objections are not valid, con
clude the men, 1--WE are not Dutchmen.

COL. r, W. HOWARD. overlooking Mar
ragansett bay, and is in splendid health
and well preserved despite his wounds
and hardships during and before the
civil war
He was born in Warwick, r. l., and
reached manhood when the contest IN
Kansas was at its hottest Being
"fanatical abolitionist," as the phrase
then was, and being also a dead shot
with a Sharps rifle, he Joined the
Browns in Kansas and was a trusted
and active man in all their fights and
raids. His account is as thrilling as any
romance. He declares that Browns first
organization, with headquarters at Al
bia. Ia, was betrayed by an Englishman
named Floyd, who had been employed as
drillmaster, and so the raid was delayed
for year.
When nearly ready, in 1859, Brown
suspected that he was again betrayed,
and moved hastily with the twenty men
he had at his Maryland farm instead of
waiting for the other detachments.
Strange as it may seem to cool observers,
Colonel Howard still thinks the move
ment might have been success If the
other detachments had come up.
In the final catastrophe he was with
Kagi and others in that "dugout' on
the river front, and was the only one
who escaped. He Travelled by night
walks to Harrisburg and thence in dis.
guise to st. Louis, before he dared &c
read a paper or ask about the outcome
of the raid. When the civil war began
he enlisted in the Ninth Rhode Island
but soon became an independent Scout
and spy, was twice in Richmond as SPY
and had many narrow escapes. he L
still fervent admirer Of John Brown
and proud of his share in the raid.

The first Protestant Christian in Ja-
pan was one Murata, a military retainer
of the Lord of Saga, in the southern is
land of Kiushiu. In 1860 he went to
Nagasald, by order of his chief, and one
evening, as he was crossing the harbor
in boat, he picked up book that WIS
floating about in the water. The writing
ran from side to side, "like the crawling
Of crabs" and upon sending it to one of
the Dutch then settled at Nagasaki, he
learned that it was the Christian Bible,
then a prescribed book. Curiosity spur
red him on, and he had one of his as
sistants learn the language Of the book
and translate it for him, sentence by
sentence.
His study was continued in secret,
with few friends, after his return
home. When a difficult passage was
found, a messenger was sent to DIR. Yer
beck, well known missionary then II
Nagasald, for its Interpretation. Murats
was afterward baptized, and his name
now stands first on the roll Of Protes
tant Christians in Japan. - LondoI

A Long Ferry Indeed.

A sixty mile ferry is a novelty of
rather doubtful success, but the Toledo,
Ann Arbor and Northern Michigan rail
road proposes to have one across Lake
Michigan from Kewaunee to Frankfort.
The ferry steamer now in course of con-
struction will cost $25O,0O0, and it is
expected to carry forty freight cars and
make the sixty mile crossing in five
hours. This will save from six dollars
to twelve dollars on each car, the shift
ing of freights costing that much more
than ferrying the cars, and there will
be much less liability to breakage.
Should it prove successful, Milwaukee
will also have ferry, and big results
are expected.

| was a young lawyer at the time,
about as poor as home missionary. l
had to go to the late A. T. Stewards to
take his signature to an affidavit He
signed and / swore him; then he wished
to know how much there was to pay.
In view of what took place afterward, l
am justified, | think, in saying that
what Mr.. Stewart expected me to say
when he asked "How much?" was "Oh,
that's all right"
But didn't say that; Isaid, Seventy
five cents"
"What?' shouted Mr.. Stewart.
"Seventy-fve cents" l answered
again.
81 won't pay it" said he. you've no
right to ask so much. The price is a
shilling, and that's all I'll give you"
But, Mr.. Stewart" replied, "a shil-
ling is the price when you come to my
Office. I've come to your store and I've
a right to charge for my car fare and a
reasonable amount for my time. Sew
enty-fve cents is really a very small
charge, Mr. Stewart, a very small
charge"
81 won't pay it," he persisted. IF
you want a shilling you may have it,
but not one cent more"
l got angry then. l gave him one
look, with which | intended to convey
the idea that | held him in contempt.
Then l said: "Mr, Stewart, you are a
poor man and I'm rich one. Twenty
/ five cents is nothing to me and seventy
five cents is a fortune to you. I'll make
you a present of that seventy-hve cents
that you owe me-"
Then l made my best dancing school
bow and walked off.-Interview in New

An Old Fashioned Phrase.

There is an old fashioned phrase of
hospitality which consists Of only two
words, and | find it a parallel to the
Greek salutation, and like it, a com
mand. "Sit by" says the comfortable
New England farmer to his guest be-
meath his roof. Now compare this com
handing phrase with the more modern
polite question, "Will you partake OF
refreshmentsY' which is as empty and
void as a Chinese invitation, and throws
the choice of acceptance on the guest

other a mere dead formality.-Detroi'

The prominence given to lecture by
the German doctor, DR.. BillrOth, on the
wounded in war, has induced Mr.. Archi-
bald Forbes to write on the subject,
DR.. Billroth estimates that of the cas-
ualties at Weissenburg and Worth dur
ing the FrancO-German war, SOper cent.
of all the wounded were caused by rifles,
IS per cent. by the large guns, and not
quite 3 per cent. by the lance and sword.
Mr. Forbes, however, says that the sta
tistics for the whole Of the war on the
German side prove that over copper cent
were due to rife fire, about 8 per cent.
to artillery, and about l per cent. to cold
steel.
The smallness of the mortality from
the French artillery is explained by the
fact that their artillery was VIGOROUSLY
badly served. DR.. Billroth believes that
the future will see a still greater pro
portion of deaths resulting from rifle
| fire than from shell. Mr.. Forbes points
out that, in doing so, no account has
been taken of the probable use of highly
destructive explosives in the shells Of
the future.-Army and Navy Gazette.

ne oFdtOT OF democracy
Dies at Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8. - Daniel
Dougherty died shortly after o'clock
p. m.
Daniel Dougherty was born in Pnila-
delphia, Dec. II, 1925. While child his
mother died and his father married again
1t was then that young Daniel left home
and began his struggle. His early life
was series of battles for existence In
his 18th year he made his rea. start in life
by entering the law office of William and
Samuel Badger. Two years afterward he
became prominent as a Democratic
speechmaker, and in 1910 he was admitted
to the bar. In 1859 he was the acknowl-
edged leader of the Douglas party in this
city. In the presidential election that
placed Lincoln in the White House for
the first term the Dougla. party in Phila-
delphia polled nearly $4,000 votes, which
was due largely to Mr.. Dougherty's
earnest efforts

FIRST OF THE SERIES.

Opening of the Fistic Carnival at New
Orleans Won by NEcAulife.
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 5.-The battle
for the lightweight championship of the
world and $40, 900 in purse and side bets
was won by Jack MeAuliffe in the ff-
teenth round. The fight, though short
or than expected, was an exceedingly
hot one. Myer had the advantage in
the first round or two but soon sue
cumbed to the fierce rushes of the Will
iamsburg lad. .....
Although the fight was not begun IN
til 9 o'clock or thereabouts, the Olym-
pic club was besieged before 5 p. m. by
hundreds of men who live in this city
and all parts of the Union. It was not
an agreeable day by any means, for the
rain came down in torrents at frequent
intervals, but that little thing had very
small effect on the enthusiasm of the
visitors to the city or the residents
thereof.
Before o'clock the arena was un-
comfortably full of men who paid $l5
for box seats, SO for lower seats and
$3.50 for seats in the galleries, and when
ex-Mayor Guillotte made the formal an
nouncement that contest for the light
weight championship of the world was
about to take place he received a rous-
ing cheer. AS the ex-mayor finished his
brief speech Professor John Duffy, the
official referee, climbed through the
padded ropes. There was a howl of
pleasure. The men weighed in few
minutes before o'clock. The limit
was 1873 pounds. Myer scaled at 1877 10

MORE CHOLERA VICTIMS.

Three More Deaths ON Board Quarantined
Vessels at New York.
NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-The Normannia
has three new cases, one of which died.
He was Otto Engle, aged 90 years, one
of the crew. The other two cases were
Wilhelm Queur, aged 10 years, and
Theodore Zimmzek, % years, both of
the crew. The Rugia has three new
cases, of which one died. The other
cases are Hendrix Sterr, aged years;
Joseph Pjekoska, aged 80 years; Johanna
Buss, aged "a years. These three peo-
pie were of the families of other pa
tients which preceded them and
have been isolated since arrival.
On the Moravia there were no new
developments. Among the Norman
MAS passengers on Hoffman island one
new case was transferred to the hospital
on Swinburne island. There was one
child died during the day, aged years.

inspect the city with the view to ward
ing off the cholera or any other infec-
tious disease, were sworn in this morn
ing. They began work at once, first

Morris tribune., 1892-09-07

-. -
DIR. Jenkins visits to the Rugia and
Moravia were short. He also visited the
hospital islands, and in the afternoon
several officials of the New York city
health department steamed down the
bay on tug to see him. The police
patrol reported early in the day for duty
and warned all passing vessels to keep a
safe distance. Masters of vessels of all
descriptions begin to realize the gravity
of the situation and give the pest ships
wide berth. DR.. Jenkins had promised
the newspaper men that he would see
them during the afternoon, and at 8
o'clock they are still awaiting his return
from the lower bay. The foregoing
facts show that the outlook is dark and
all hands are prepared for long siege.
AS to the probabilities Of the disease
getting into the country there need be
no alarm if the present precautions are
carried out.
