is a majestic concern, employing an
army of people Of different races, guises,
habits, manners and customs. Nothing
like 1t has ever been seen; nothing like
it ever before was contemplated. 1t
would be difficult to pick flaw in this
great concern, which comprises under
one head and one master spirit Indians
of every tribe; chiefs who have been
hereditary foes for centuries; white
frontiersmen whose feuds with tho red
men have been regarded as beyond the
realms of peaceful adjustments; and
white men. TOO, whose vendettas against
each other have been of historical bitter
ness; the only herd of buffalo living,
spotted mustangs, Texas steers, buck
ing bronchos, Mexican vaqueros, wild
Western girls, dark eyed Castilian and
Aztec beauties, Indian travoys, ponies,
pappooses, wild riders Of the pampas OF
South America, Indian mustangs from
Carlisle, and hosts of famous riders, cow
boys. pistol and rifle shots together
with Miss May Lille, the only lady in
the world who can, with rifle and on
horseback, shoot and break while the
steed Is plunging toward, glass balls as
fast as they are thrown up in front Of
her.
The mere enumeration Of the items or
component parts of this entertainment
would take up more space than can be
spared to them just now. Suffice it to
say that besides tho above are Bedouin
Arabs, which were added at the last
moment, and that some OF tie most
memorable OF Western events and his
torical incidents will be re.enacted at
each and every performance to which
the public are invited to come early and
bring their children, who, II under Q.
will be charged only half price.

A NEW pARTy
senator fefer Believes the Populist and
 silver Men Win Form New Party.

senator fener Relieves the Populist and
 shVcr Men VIII Form New Party
 WASHINGTON, Nov, 1S.--Senator Pef- Ter, of Kansas, acknowledged that a movement was on foot to merge the present peoples party into new or ganization which should include the advocates of the free coinage of silver who had never embraced the populist doctrines of government ownership of railroads, bond loans and paper money issues, He said that w. F. Rightmire, of Topeka, who was instrumental in calling the Cincinnati conference in 1891, when the populist party was brought into being, had taken the initiative in the move- ment for the reorganization of the party upon different lines, and contin- ued; Il expect new alignment of parties after the congressional cleo tions next year and that the new party will be ready for our work in the pres idential election of 1896. The populists will form part of great national or ganization which will probably be brought together under another name The populist party will have the same relation to this new party that the old free soil and abolitionist parties bore to the republican party which was after wards organized by coming together of all the people opposed to the exten- sion of slavery in the national terri tories"
 When asked what would be the issue upon which the new party would or ganize, Mir. Peffer said that it would be the question of money. "The issue" !" he continued, lis now between the money power and gold basis on one side, and the producing masses of the people advocating an enlarged vol tune of money on a gold, silver and paper basis on the other. That will be the great issue in 1896, and it is one upon which the people will divide without regard to former party differ ences."

A PEACEFUL SETTLEMENT.
Feasibility of Referring All International
 DIsputes to n Court of Arbitration.

Feasibility of Referring All International
 Disputes to Court of Arbitration.
 Probably the most interesting and important of the arbitrations in which our country has been involved was that known as the Geneva arbitration. The provisions under which it was formed are contained in the treaty of Washing ton. The question to be decided was nominally one merely of money, but in reality much more than this lay be- heath the surface of the discussion. Great Britain, by her conduct during the most trying period of the national history, had created irritation among the people of the United States She had sympatbized almost openly with the rebellion, and had permitted her ports to be used for building and fitting out privateers. The commerce of the north had been driven from the seas valuable property destroyed and mate rial encouragement offered the states in rebellion. The sensitiveness with which this unfriendly action, and still more unfriendly inaction, on the part of Great Britain were regarded threat ened to burst into open resentment. The circumstances were such as to make the efforts of the peace-maker equally delicate and difficult It is to the credit of President Grant. that, warrior as he was, he preferred this peaceful method of solving international questions to the lottery of war. His words do him great honor, and should be kept in lasting remembrance by his people: Though l have been trained as a soldier, and have participated in many battles, there never was a time when, in my opinion, some way could not have been found to prevent the drawing of the sword. l look forward to an epoch when a court, recognized by all nations, will settle international differences instead of keeping large. standing armies as they do in Europe"
 To us of America the problem may seem easier than to any other nation in the world, because we have in perma- nent session Q tribunal of arbitration which we call the supreme court in the United States. Sovereign states which hdNC ItJdlucu all Ol llSlE sONGIclS ny that was consistent with "a more per feet union'' appear before that court and settle their differences, their boundaries and their respective claims as easily, and acquiesce as readily in the result as private individuals. Iowa sues Illinois much as A sues B-takes out process, procures dispositions, spb- mits points of fact and of law, and leaves the rest to the court. Making due allowance for the distinction be- tween the jurisdiction of this national court, dealing with members of the union, and court sitting to decide the rights of independent nations, we may still claim that the analogy between the two is marked enough to deserve consideration.-F. B. Coudert, in Har- pers Magazine.

Ol l1HplOhdEt'
 CHICAGO, Nov. 1S.-Beginning at o'clock this morning the city was prac- tically put under martial law. Chief of Police Brennan yesterday informed the inspectors that he intended to adopt rigid measures, and that at 1 o'clock each night until such a time as the order is rescinded, he desired that half the force be put in citi- zens clothes and thrown upon the streets. These men are to stop and question every individual found on the streets after that hour. If satisfactory answers are given the citizens will be allowed to go on in peace. If their an- swers are not satisfactory to the police, the men accosted will be taken to the police station. This measure is made necessary by the large number of high way robberies and sandbaggings which have occurred of late.

SHOCKING STATE OF THINGS.
Disgraceful Treatment of Lepers by the People of New Orleans.

People of New Orleans.
 NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 1S.--An investi- gation into the condition of the leper hospital in the outskirts of New Or leans has disclosed some horrible facts. There are seven men in the hospital. Charges are made against the in- stitution that the patients are often not visited by physician for ten days at a time, that insutfi- cient food is given them and no nurses are provided. A letter carrier testified that one of the patients, who acted as cook, handles the meat in the butchers cart, fingers the pieces, and after he selects what he wants the remainder is sold to other customers.
 Dr. Beard made some startling state ments. He said that there were lepers moving about Tn every quarter of the city almost. He cited the case of man who has the leprosy and is em- ployed in the candy shop of James Ford, on Royal street; another, he said, a man named Mattel, was working some times in barber shop on Custom street, between Royal and Bourbon. One leper was employed in the Amer ican rice mill and went home regularly every night to his family There were two others, q white woman and a ne- gro, who are around the Dryades mar ket every morning
 The leper hospital is city institu- tion, conducted under contract by Dr. J. c. Beard Owing to insufficient ap- propriations, bad management and laxity in enforcing the law regarding the isolation of lepers the institution is in bad shape

senoys Blown from Cannon.

Many years ago, when Sepoys were blown from the months of cannon there was great outcry all over the civilized world, but a dispatch from Lahore reports that eleven more mutin- ous Sepoys have been treated in the same way and their companions re- quired to swear on the Koran to strict obedience to their commanders. The Sepoys do not fear ds h so much as initiation, and for this reason no pun ishment has any terror for them ex- cept some such method of execution as that of being blown to pieces This, at least, is the excuse given for the barbarous practice, Philadelphia Ledger.

 LONDON, Nov. 1S.-The keenest inter- est continues to be manifested in the affairs of the bank of England, espe- cially in city circles, but there are few developments. It is stated that the directors have not come to any decision and it is generally thought that there will be no resignations among the directors.
 The Westminster Gazette attempts to infer that there was a connection be- tween the retirement of Cashier May and the resignation of the financial editor of the Times. The report that such connection existed is said to be unfounded.
