GIVE AMERICA A CHANCE.

ChicagO's Mayor Thinks Foreign Saints and
 Kings Should Not Have All the Holidays.
 CHICAGO, March 22.-Mayor Washburne, in sending an order to the heads of depart ments in the city hall calling their atten- tion to the council order declaring to-day . holiday in honor of Emperor Williams birthday, took occasion to give expression to some rather cutting sarcasm.
 While nominally obeying the order, the message will have the actual effect of nullifying it. The order closes with the following paragraph:
 '1 desire to here commend the spirit which dictated the setting apart of this day and the setting apart of March F by the city council as American holidays, and trust that the council, having recog- nized the cosmopolitan character of our population by granting holidays to the different nationalities whose blood com mingles here in the production of the American citizen, will not deprive the city employees of other nationalities of oppor- tunity to properly commemorate the birth of all dead saints and heroes, as we'll as the birth of all reigning nonarchs.
 "If the catalogue of dead and living saints and monarchs be not sufd cient to exhaust the secular days of tho year, would suggest that the council, as a change, appropriate the few rem aiming days by closing the city hall in ord CT that we may commemorate the birth of some American hero"

GOSSIP FROM GOTHAM.
The Carlyle Harris Case Not Yet
 Definitely Settled.
Tho Hoop Skirt Makes Its Appearance on BroadwRy-Success of the Dog and Poultry Shows-Charley NIItch-
 ell and Ills Backer.
Especial Now York Letter. i

The most absorbing topic of conver- sation in New York Is: "Win Carlyle Harris get n new trial?' His case was called before Recorder Smythe a few days ago. Harris and his mother were both present, and are plainly breaking down under the tremendous strain. Harris himself has fallen away to shadow; and as for his devoted mother, she will not be able to bear up much longer. To add to her misery her other Son, Allan Harris, is dying of pnou- monia in Chicago.

They cndeavor to make it appear that Helen Potts liar ris, the girl wife of the prisoner. w&; q confirmed opium fend. It was a pa thetic moment when Carlyle Harris, no longer the tiippant Lothario, but pale and dejected, appealed to the imprrturb- able recorder.

Jectionable habits. He never strays on and has to be coaxed back with a re- ward: He is a good watch dog; too. If you set a croclsery dog to watch anything, he will watch it until the heavens are rolled up as q scroll, and he never bites the wrong person. I think it was a great mistake to omit the croclery dog. The poultry show is as great a success as was the dog show, and much more important from the standpoint of the individual who is largely infested with common sense germs. What would society do without fresh eggs and fried chicken? Dogs are very well to look at, but poultry constitute the drgumen- tum dd honaineu. It seems to me If the chickens keep on increasing in size, brief nS is our hold on life, we may live to see the turkey dethroued as our na- tional bird. Among the crowds mo- ticed quite large number of elegant ly-dressed Afro-Americans from the aristocratic purlieus of Thompson street. The colored gentleman never loses an opportunity to admire fine poultry. It seems to be an inherited instinct. The interest shown in the poultry show is quite as great as that displayed when the dogs and horses were exhibited, but, of course, it does not come up to the excitement of the French ball, or the sparring match be tween Sullivan and Corbett.
 On passing the World building few days ago my attention was attracted to large number of people who were peering anXiously into the main en- trance as If something of national inn portance was about to happen. Upon inquiring 1 learned that Inspector Byrnes and squad of police in plain clothes were lying in wait, so to speak, for Pugilist Mitchell and his packer, Squire" Abingdon. They were to meet the representative of Mir. Corbett. and arrange for the great international pound sociable that is to come off. In- spectOr ByrnCs had suddenly discovered that arranging for slugging matches is revolution of the law, and had Mitchell put in appearance he would have been arrested; but the evasive English slugger stayed away.
 It now seems to me that Mitchell is not treated exactly right. When he at tempted to land he found it as difficult as Sullivan did when he attempted to land on Corbett's head. It was con- tended that Mitchell was 0 convict, having been in jail, but as he had only been guilty of a misdemeanor he could not be sent back. Now, between pugil- tsts there is little to choose As the woman said when her husband told her the bears wcro "ighting:" II have no prejudice" It really makes no differ ence which takes the cake-the pound cake. Ever since the days of Neb- uchadnezzar, who was the first man sent to grass, pugilists have been pretty much alike, hence this discrimination in favor of Corbett seems little peculiar. There are slugging matches
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1893-03-22

every night on the Bowery, in which men arc knocked out for the amusement Nt the audience, but the police do not feel called on to interfere. Is our in fant industry of slugging to be protect cd against English competition? If the New York police display half as much interest in suppressing vice as they did in convicting Dr. Parkhurst's agent and in harassing Mitchell, New York would be a much more desirable place of residence. All these automatic thrashing machines should be treated alike. They should be suppressed in &scrimatcly, and if they are half as good at doing up" as they claim they might be made useful in grocery stores doing up parcels
 Mitchell is square-built, pleasant faced sort of n man, who does not look as ''Englishy" as Squire" Abingdon by q great deal, who, by the way, is sup posed to have any quantity of money.

the decision of tn" recorder will be an nounced. The district attorney has no idea that a new trial will be granted.
 It is here, but o~ly in mild type. It may or may not become epidemic. Iso- lated cases have been reported, and there is reason to fear that unless lcgis- lativr action is taken it may spread not only in New York but over the whole country.
 am not writing about the typhus or the cholera, but the threatened spread of the hoop skirt. Like the cholera or the scvcntccn-ycar locusts. hoop skirts have n disagrcrablc way of appearing after m absence of many years Hoop skirts have appeared on Hroa ,lwny, and caused the fa"Cs of pedestrians tO be come so distorted with astnuiahrncnt that it was with difficulty they could rcadjust their features in the original lines. Not only this, but the hoop skirts are offered for sale on the counters of the large dry goods establishments.
 It will not do to treat this subject with levity. The results of crinoiinc becoming fashionable are ap1alling. Manhattan Island is too small, and it is impossible to cnlprgr it at this late day.

 ST. JOSEPH, Mo, March 23.-Compton Mccoy, farmer, residing 8 few miles south of this city on the Miss ouri river banks, while duck hunting on a sand bar, discovered large drygoods box floating with the current. He pulled tho box to the shore, and, breaking it open, was nearly overpowered by a ter rible stench that arose from it.
 An investigation disclosed hat the box was filled with dead bodies in an advanced state of decomposition, the remains being so badly decomposed that Identification was impossible.
 Coroner Reynolds made an investiga- tion, and found that the rem aims were those of four men and one wom an, and ap- pearances indicated that they had been murdered, their remains placed in the box and then set adrift.
 The community is in a ter rible state of excitement. It is supposed the remains are those of family of emigrants who disap- peared in a mysterious manner from Rulo. 40 miles north of AAhc Sity. last AAn

He was given the name of Pete, in honor of his mas ter, and permanent quarters were as signed him in warm corner. This Pete seemed to appreciate, and as his masters duty is to push out Q truck upon the arrival or departure of trains to receive or deliver the newsboys' fruit boxes, the dog conceived the idea of be- coming general overseer, and he has learned the time of the arrival and de parture of trains almost as well as his

He travels for New York publishing house and is in troduc:ng new book. He put up at the best hotel, secured choice rooms, and then sent district messenger boys to leading residents requesting them to call at once on matter of importance. They called and were ushered in and had the book showed under their noses.

On the day that he was advertised to appear on the track a great crowd was present and the excite ment ran high, for good deal of money had been put up on the other horses. To the astonishment of nearly every body Pizarro beat every horse on the track, and the people went fairly wild.

master. With train in Pete can hard ly restrain himself, as leaping and frisking about he waits for the truck to move. The instant the box is loaded Pete jumps upon it and enjoys i'm mensely the ride to or from the box room. His carelessness almost cost him his life short time ago, as he slipped off the box and almost fell under the wheels of locomotive, which cut off his tail. His owner wanted to se- cure a warrant for the arrest of the engineer, but it was decided that he looked more like licensed official after the docking process was completed. He can be seen riding to and fro on every train box that is handled at this de- pot. Day or night Pete is ready, and makes friends with no one except his master"
