GENERAL ATHLETICS.
Organization of ST. PauPs New
Club Slow, But Sure.

Organization of st. Paul's New
Club Slow, But Sure.
The gentlemen who are organizing
the new amateur athletic association
are adopting a course of action which
may, perhaps, seem trifie dilatory to
very many OF st. Paul'S athletes who
are anxious to see the proposed club a
fixture without delay. Those who have
the matter in hand, however, report
that they are progressing very salts
factorily, somewhat slower than was
anticipated, perhaps, but nevertheless
all the more surely, and with greater
chance for the ultimate success of the
project. The project has been received
with such great favor that, by pro-
ceeding slowly anu carefully. the
club will in all probability even exec II
the first plans of its projectors and in
The end better satisfy all. The pre-
liminary work of organizing is more of
a task than the few gentlemen VINO are
at work realized, and they desire to
make their work complete before laying
it before the general public, so it is
possible that another week or TWO may
elapse before the result of their labor is
announced.
Negotiations are under way with sew
eral parties with view to obtaining
definite estimates of the prospective
expenses of eQuipping and con-
Quoting the gymnasium and other
club rooms, and the committee hope
also to report upon the question of a To-
cation of the club quarters, which re-
quires careful canvass of all the avail
able buildings, and this may take an
other ten days.
The election of officers has not yet
been held, and may, perhaps, be de-
ferred another week or so.

after the close of the bimetallic con-
vention Cows. Waite, Tillman and Lew

American Bimetallic league, held

were also present. AS a result of the
meeting, a convention of the Southern
silver men will be held in Atlanta in
December as the climax to free silver
agitation that will be begun
once throughout the South. Follow
ing this will come another conven-
ton in the West and just at the
interesting period when the presidential
candidates are beginning to be discussed
a grand convention Of the combined
West and South will be held i'll this city.
w. II. Scaggs has been named as pres
ident of the Southern Bimetallic league,
new organization under whose auspices
the Atlanta convention would be held.
Cows. LewelIing, Waite and Tillman
will attend the convention. while Col.
A. c. Fiske will appoint representatives
from the Western states to attend the
session as visitors. The convention
is expected to represent the views
OF the Southern states on the
silver question, and, according
to the Alabama delegates. the out
spokenness of the Southerners in their
advocacy of free silver coinage will sur
prise the Northern Democrats. The
undoubted outcome of these conven-
tions will be the formation of new
party to be known as the free silver

President and Cashier or an Hill
nois Concern Under Arrest.
CHICAGO. Oct. 7.-Henry Mershon and
E. p. Durvell, who were, respectively,
president and cashier of the Bank of
Mershon & Co.. in Vermont, Ill.,, which
failed about year since, were
arrested here today. 1t is alleged
that they are embeZzlers to the amount
of 5000, 600, and that the amount was
drawn from the depoSitors. The bank
failed for 100000, but it was at first
thought that it was an honorable as
signment. 1t later developed, however.
it Is said, that shady transactions had
been engaged in, and as the report
spread the president and the cashier
fed from the town. Officers searched
high and low for the missing men, and
descriptions of MershOn and Durell
were sent 10 the police headquarters at
ali the leading cities, but not the slight
est trace of their whereabouts could
be found until they were recently
located in Chicago. Dureii was located
at 253 Hermitage avenue. but it was
said there that he had moved away at 4
o'clock this morning. Mershon
was found clerkIng at Slegel u
Cooper'S dry goods store. He confessed
that he was the missing banker, but re-
fused to say anything that would lead
to the arrest of Durell. The ex-cashier
was finally found at 224 Washington
boulevard, and locked up. A constable
arrived late this afternoon to take the
two men back to Vermont.

Fencing is one of the prettiest of all
sports, and there is nothing in all the
line of athletics that tends more TO eX-
ercse the entire system than this. 1t
develops activity and accuracy of action
almost more than anything that can be
done. 1t is not rough or brutal sport,
but a gentleman's pastime. 1t is very
little known in this Western country,
and when masters of the art make their
appearance here they receive very little
encouragement in the way of patron
age.
