The Editor Goes to the Circus.

To some the circus of last week
brought recollections saturated with
melancholy. Not that the show was in
ferior to the announcement. The ami
mails were all there; there was the old
familiar smell of the arena; there was
gallant riding and there were thrilling
acrObatic feats. But to the man OF 40
years or over there never was but one
circus, and that was the circus of his
boyhOod. He that went with child or
nephew to the show of last week was
abliged to admit the greater variety of
entertainment, the greater comfort and
the greater cleanliness. He was per-
picked, however, by the number of
rings, and he thought with a sigh of the
single ring that saw the triumphs of
Robinson and Melville and Car Carlotta
de Berg. Then he gasped with every
motion of the rider. Now only he that
is cross-eyed can enjoy the spectacle in
its plenitude.-Bos Journal

A FORTUNE FOR DAMAGES.
Mrs. Baldwin Gets $4,000 from the New
York Central.

New YORK, June 27.-Fifty thousand
dollars, the largest sum ever paid by an
American railroad company for injuries
to a single person, will be paid by the
New York Central Railroad to Mrs.
Homer r. Baldwin, of Yonkers, within
few days, in settlement for
the injuries she received in the
disaster at Hastings on Christmas eve,
1881. The accident was a rear-end col
hsiOn and the result of carelessness in
signaling. Mrs. Baldwin was crushed
by heavy timbers and scalded by steam
from the engine. Her scalp came off,
her eyelids were burned away and her
eyeballs were so injured that they were
removed. Both ears were gone and the
right arm nearly all of it left had to
be amputated. Mrs. Baldwin brought
suit for $3.50, 900 damages. The company's
defense was that Mrs. Baldwin was rid
ing on pass. The case was to be tried
last Tuesday, but shortly before it was
called A. B. Darlington and Joseph Fl.
Choate, attorneys for Mrs. Baldwin, ac-
copied a settlement for $4,000. The
Central Railway people asked that the
amount paid should be kept secret but
the fact leaked out.

hour for the dedication J. s. Larke, the
executive commissioner for the DOmin-
ion Of Canada, in the name of Queen
Victoria and the people of Canada de-
clared the building open and said that
all citizens of Canada and al
subjects Of the Queen would find well
come within its walls Hearty cheers
and enthusiastic applause followed and
then the military, civic and social or
carnations formed in line and marched
down the lake front to the court of
honor and thence to the transportation
building where the military bands
PLAYED the "Dead March in Saul"
in front of the Inflated Victoria.
The procession then proceeded to

PITTsBURG, Pa, June 27-The pros
poets of settlement of the differences
between the Amalgamated Association
and the manufacturers are much bright
er tonight, and employer and
empioye are now hopeful that
a general shut down on July
l will not be necessary. The
wire nail manufacturers and workers
committee met to-day, and after
long session agreed upon a scale,
the wOrkmen accepting a per cent.
reduction. The manufacturers wanted
10 per cent. cut, but compromise
was effected upon the basis stated.
The mills will now continue in opera
ton, with perhaps two or three weeks
shut down for repairs. A call was
also made for another conference of
steel sheet manufacturers and workmen
on Thursday. The last conference adj
journed without date and the call issued
to-day is thought to indicate DISPOSE
ton from one side or the other to make
concessions. One mill, the Ohio Falls
Iron Company, of New Albany, Ind,
signed the scale, with the understand
ing that if there is general reduction
it will get the benefit of it.

grasp of the men and as they were
closely banded together shot might
mean death to him. Just before reach

jerked away and the guards opened fire
from all directions. The convicts took

selves as best they could, and
returned the fire as rapidly as pos
sible. A terrific fight then took place
which lasted fully half an hour, during

end of about thirty minutes the convicts
surrendered. The guards found Will
