SITUATION AT RIO.
The City Again Bombarded by the Rebels The People Want Foreign Vessels to Interfere.

The City Again Bombarded by the Rebels
 The People Want Foreign Vessels to Interfere.
 LONDON. Sept. 29.-Cable messages from Rio de Janeiro received yesterday report that, despite the intervention of the vessels of foreign nations in that harbor or in open defiance of them, the rebel fleet resumed the bombardment yesterday morning with more fury than ever and in a short time great damage had been done and several persons killed.
 A special cable message from an American in Rio denies the truth of the report that the warships belonging to the squadron commanded by Adm. de Mcllo were silenced, after opening fire upon Rio de Janeiro, by the guns of the land forts at the mouth of the har- bor. The forts, it is said, were unable to shell the rebel ships, owing to the position the latter occupied, without taking tremendous risks of dropping shells into Rio de Janeiro itself.
 But this was not the only reason which prevented the forts from firing on the rebel ships, the forts, the cable message adding, being almost entirely destitute of ammunition, in spite of the statement cabled by the Brazilian gov ernment to its agent in Paris, saying that the forts had been completely garrisoned and supplied, and that the reason some of the rebel ships got to sea was because they passed out before the forts were ready to give them a warm reception.
 The inhabitants of Rio de Janeiro, continues the dispatch, hoped and are still hoping for foreign intervention in their favor, and the commanders of the foreign warships are said to have been frequently appealed to on the subject with no definite result
 Allreports reaching the outside world from Rio have come either from gov ernment sources or from friends of the rebels, both sides coloring their reports to suit the emselves It is believed that the dispatches received by the banking houses in London have given the pub lie an idea of the real situation of af- fairs

Why a Wife Changes Her Name.

It is said that the practice of the wife assuming the husbands name at marriage originated from a Roman custom and became the common GUS tom after the Roman occupation. Thus Julia and Octavia, married to Pompey and Cicero, were called by the Romans Julia of Pompey and Octavia of Cicero, and in later times married women in most European countries signed their names in the same manner, but omitted the "of" Against this view may be mentioned that during the sixteenth and even the beginning of the seven- ,eenth century the usage seems doubt .ul, since we find Catherine Parr so signing herself after she had been twice married, and we always hear of Lady Jane Grey (not Dudley) and Ara bella Stuart (not Seymour). Some persons think that the custom origin tied from the scriptural teaching that husband and wife are one. It was de- .ided in the case of Bon vs. Smith, in he reign of Elizabeth, that woman oy marriage loses her former name and egally receives the name of her hus- oand.-Philadelphia Times.

 rate n Movement for the Formation of
 a Strong Combination.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-The speech of Senator Cameron in favor of the free coinage of silver continues to attract attention here, not only because 1t is a startling and unusual attitude for a republican senator from an eastern state like Pennsylvania to take, but because of the events that are crowd- ing on the heels of that speech in Penn svlvania. At the meeting of the re- publican league, at Reading, an att tempt to censure Senator Cameron for his course was defeated by two-thirds majority. An explanation of this failure to censure Senator Gamer on, and, indeed, of the attitude he has taken, was furnished by the intelli- gence that has reached here that a movement is on foot among the pro- tected manufacturers of Pennsylvania to effect . combination between the pro- tected interests and the free silver men, which shall have for it's aim the defeat of the legislation looking to tariff re- duction and the qualification of the vests demand for free coinage under modified conditions.
 Some of the members of the Manu- lecturers club, of Philadelphia, led by James Dobson, the big woolen manufacturer, and Wharton Barker the banker, are engaged in circulating q petition to the senate. loolSirg to consolidation of the interests of the pro- tectionists and the free silverites. Many signatures are being procured. The scheme is to defeat the new tariff bill and give to silver, first, free coinage of silver upon payment by the owners of a seigniorage absorbing three-fourths of the difference between the market Uondon) price of the bullion and it's coined value; second, the prohibition of foreign silver for coinage purposes. except at seigniorage.that,will absorb all the difference between the market price and the mint value and third, an international monetary conference, in- cluding all the nations of the world, except gold monomctallism countries, for the purpose of arriving at an inter. national agreement

Moderate Climate Conducive to Long Life.

hOuerale 'o ''ohS A1'A''
 Undoubtedly the climate most con lucive to longevity is moderate one, although cold climate. other things being equal, has a decided advantage over a hot one. For instance, the rate of mortality in southern climes is much yreater than in that of such regions as Scandinavia and Russia, while duration of life is longer in Norway than in any country, and of course Norway is de- ,idedly cold. That excessive cold is oreiudicial to long life is proved by the low maximum age which is reached by the inhabitants of such places as Ice land and Siberia. The negro in the not. muggy land of his fathers on the Senegal in Africa ages early and does not live long. Transplanted to com- paratively moderate climate in this country, he lives much longer life, the census for New Jersey, for instance, showing that among negroes, with their easy going animal life, there is one centenarian out of every one thou sand, but only one white centenarian among one hundred and fifty thousand, Brooklyn Eagle.

FOR HIS SAFETY
S. S.Paquin, Son of DR.. Paquin
IL in the Northern Foreata
and an Eccident ie
Feared

From the Minneapolis Tribune
Samuel S. Paquin, of the University
class OF '94, who has been spending
his summer vacation in the employ
Of Surveyor Thomas Croswell, OF
Merriam Park, is missing, and there
are fears that he has persisted in the
wilds of Northern Minnesota. Ac-
cording to the report he left camp
at Net lake to go to point on dis
tant Red lake, and being overdue
two weeks is believed by some to be
dead.
No one well acquainted with the
region, however, and cognizant Of
the fact that Paquin is an experienced
woodsman, will have any fears of
death to him from animals or from
becoming lost III the woods. The re-
giOn he was to traverse, while wild
and without inhabitants other than
friendly and very poor Indians. is yet
thoroughly marked with trails and
by the camps of cruisers. 1t is more
than likely that Mr.. Paquin has
changed his trip and perhaps taken
the roundabout trip down some of
the far tributaries of the Mississippi,
or gone north on one of the streams
to the Rainy river. There are many
delightful trips he could take in mid
summer and not come out for weeks.
Senior Paquin is son of DR.. Paquin
of Little Falls, formerly from Brai-
nerd and of Herman, and in early
times on the Sisseton Indian Agency.
There is more chance that his hardy
boy will return an explorer a 10
