A NOVEL RULING.
Tom Reed Could Take Lessons from
This Man.

At meeting which was held on
this island, last week, for the
election of delegates to the Nom
mating Convention, the acting
president was about to call for
nominations when an old native,
well up in parliamentary law, rose
and objected to further proceed
ings because there was no quorum
present.
The president was surprisad, but,
after rejecting a moment, replied
that, under the Provisional Govern
ment, the objection would have
been, probably, good, but that un-
der the Republic it had no force.
This explanation satisfied the ma
tive, and. the nominations were
made.

THE SILVER KING DRAWS WELL.
Another Crowded House Greets the
Daley Company.
The New Scenery, Specially Painted For
the Occasion, Adds Greatly to the
Enjoyment OF the Play.

The Opera House was again
crowded last evening, the Silver
King proving to be drawing piece.
The play was one of the best yet
produced, and, with the addition of
the new scenery, specially painted
for the piece, was greatly enjoyed.
The plot is of the blood and
thunder type, with murder in the
first act; the other four acts being
devoted to clearing it up. Wilfred
Denver, a young Englishman, goes
while drunk to the house of a for
mer friend of his, for the purpose of
killing him, the reason being that
the latter has insulted Denver's
wife. When he comes to the house,
he finds burglars there who chloro-
form him. Shortly after, the man
whom Denver wishes to kill comes
home, and is shot by one of the
burglars. When Denver RECEIVERS
consciousness, he sees the dead
body, and at once imagines that he
is the murderer. He fees the
country, goes to Nevada, and makes
a big fortune, returning to find his
wife and children starving. In
the end, the whole affair is cleared
up, the murderer is captured, and
virtue triumphs as usual.
Mortimer Snow took the part of
Denver, and did it well. His act
ing was finished as in any part be
has yet attempted here. Al Hal
! lett, as Skinner, the villain of the
piece, was also very good. Miss
sDalgleish, as Nellie Denver, Will
fred's wife, did some very clever
acting, especially in the more i'm
passioned scenes. Miss Nannary
did not have very much to do, but
she did it very well. The support
was better than the average. The
cast is a large one, and necessi-
tated doubling up on several of the
parts. The new scenery was quite
effective, especially the cottage
scene in the third act.

A Mefeoric Career.

Ex-senator Sprague, of Rhode

pier of a steamboat line. He in
herited enormous wealth from his
father, became Governor of the

battle-felds in 1861, and spent
several hundred thousand dollars
of his own money in making them
comfortable. He married the
daughter of Chief Justice Chase of
the Supreme Court of the United
States. He mismanaged the I'M
mense print works business left to
him by his father, and finally be-
came a bankrupt and a drunkard.

Swinburne's Eccentricities.

Swinburne, the poet, hates the
smell of tobacco. 1t was so offen-
sive to him while he was at the Art
Club, in London, recently, that he
exclaimed: flames the First was
a knave, tyrant, a fool, liar and
a coward. But 1 love him, l wor-
ship him, because he slit the throat
of that BLACKBOARD Raleigh, because
he invented this filthy smoking"
Some twenty-five years ago, we
were dining with friend, in Lon
don Club, when Swinburne, who
was a member of it, came in, much
"the worse for wear" and proceeded
to take the hats of the members
from the rack, and kick them one
by one into the street. He ex-
pressed the same hatred for hats
then that he now expresses for
smoke, and suffered the conse-
quences of his hatred, by being
suspended for several months.

Humane Conduct Urged.

Before considering the peace proposals
from China. Japan insists upon the sur
render for execution of all the Chinese
officials who have offered money rewards
for Japanese heads. The London Globe
1ri is letter from British resident in
China who occupies an important posi-
ton which brings him in touch with the
mandarins and the masses. The writer
says: "A tragedy may occur any day, and
when the japanese come within sight of
the capital / feel certain that every for
eigner will he massacred. The foreign
Ministers will incur a perfectly insane
risk If they remain there after the ice has
closed the port of Tien Tsn. The great
est danger is in the fact that nearly oil
the soldiers are members of secret So
cieties which are ready to break out at
the first chance" The instructions given
by Lieutenant General Sakuma to the
second Japanese army, governing the
treatment of the enemy in the pending
war, are contained in an issue of the
Yokohama Mail. General Sakuma said
that Japan, being the first country of
the East which had adopted civilization
as her path. held the responsible position
to lead other hitherto uncivilized ma
tons into the way of civilization. SO
whatever way the enemy may act. Japan
must tread the way of justice, and while
carrying reform into barbarous coun-
try,the dignity of Japan must be upheld"

adds to the hope that the Union Bank Of
st. Johns will be able to continue busi-
ness. The Government decided that its
position was untenable and sent q iettes
to the leaders of the Liberal party offer
ing to resign or to retain Office If support
ed on the financial question. The Liber-
ais demanded that the Ministers be dis
missed. The Governor refused, but sum-
moned the Assembly. The Ministers,
knowing that their defeat IL certain
should they face the Assembly, rendered
their resignations. Mr.. Green, leader
of the opposition, has been called upon
by the Governor to form Cabinet. His
task Is an almost impossible one. The
Government statements show that the in
terest on the public loans, $3.50, 900, will
be required to be furnished in london
Jan. i. This amount cannot now be OBJ
tanned and therefore the colony must de-
fault in the payment unless some arrange
ment Is speedily made. The Peoples
Bank, of Halifax, will establish q branch
at st. Johns. Canadian banks will do
likewise, thus giving an opportunity for
the holders to realize on their stocks of
fish. The demands for the prosecution OF
the directors of the Commercial Bank OF
Newfoundland are becoming more gen.
eral. Quantities Of specie for the Gov
eminent and private concerns are on the

CATTLE MEN AROUSED.

Their Business Demands Free Trade
in Sugar with Germany.
Washington dispatch: Word reaches
here that the vast cattle interests of the
West, representing an invested capital Of
not less than 100000, 600. are about to
grapple in a deathlock struggle with the
sugar trust, and that the direction of the
fighting Is to be lodged with p. ID. Ar
mour, Nelson Morris, and Swift, the Chi
cago kings of the meat trade. The Unit
ed States is to be the battle-ground. Free
sugar is a necessity to the free exporta-
ton of meat products to the great con-
Stunning markets of Europe. The imposi-
ton of a duty on sugar was promptly met
by the raising of an embargo against
American beef by Germany and Den
mark. Germany has indicated clearly
that she does not propose to recede from
the position taken with regard to Ameri-
can meats until the discrimination against
the beet sugar interests of the German
empire is removed. The American meat
trade with foreign countries approximates
$3.50, 100000 year, and anything that
threatens this mighty business in vital
or important way instantly touches the
pockets of one of the most powerful and
fighting combinations in existence. In
this fight the meat men feel that they can
command the aggressive support of the
Senators from every Western and South
ern State and put up a combination that
will be invinciblc. The department of
agriculture may be relied upon to help the
cattle men. This is the first real danger
that has menaced the sugar trust.

After having deserted his wife and chill
dren, his friends and his congregation to
brave the scorn of the world with wom-
an in whose affections he could never
hope to find lawful place, Rev. Conrad
Haney, of Chicago, has found himself de-
serted in turn. When Mr.. Haney and
Mrs. Brandt left Chicago their fight was
announced to the woman's parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Huttig, at Muscatine, Iowa, the
same day by telegraph by Mr.. Brandt.
Mr.. Huttig, Jr., assumed the right of
brother to reclaim his sister, and started
out in chase of the guilty pair, locating
them at Cincinnati. There is we'll
founded rumor afoat that Mr.. Huttig
fiourished big revolver in the runaway
preachers face and threatened to pull
the trigger, while Mr.. Haney calmly told
him that he was perfectly Indifferent as
to whether the gun was loaded or not.
Mrs. Brandt, it is said, bore herself with
the same composure. Mrs. Brandt re-
turned to Chicago. The meeting between
the mother and daughter and husband
can best be imagined. Friday Mrs.
Brandt left the city alone. She was ac-
companied to the train by Mr.. Brandt,
who purchased her a ticket to an eastern
seaport, from where it is said she will
take a steamer to Europe. Those who
saw the parting say it was fearless one.

Beehive In . csurths use Dome.

Since the dial on the south side Of
the courthouse was blown out by
the late storm, workmen engaged in
repairing the damage have made the
discovery that the large ball just
above the dome and beneath the
eagle is inhabited by bees. and that
their storage Of honey is immense.
For several years past it has been
claimed that bees occupied that or
namental portion Of Alachua's CAPT.
toll, but it was generally regarded as
an unfounded claim; late investiga-
ton, however, leaves no room to
doubt that both the bees and honey
are there. 1t is calculated by those
who are presumed to be competent
TO Judge that the ball contains not
less than 100 pounds Of honey. The
bees have selected a home where
they are not likely to be seriously
disturbed-certainly not to the ex-
tent Of being robbed. There is prob
ably not another hive OF bees In the
State provided with q home $50 feet

THE TALLEsT LADDER.
Spiked Against q Smokestack and
Reaches 456 Feet.

A short distance from Glasgow
Cathedral, northward through Castle
street, the Monkland canal is crossed
and the grimiest of manufacturing
regions is reached. On the left hand
are the well-known st. Rollox works,
of which Sir Charles Tenant is the
head, and which are easily distin-
guished by the great chimney stack
designed by the late Professor Mac
quorn Rankine. The stack is 456
feet high from the base to the cap
stone-32 feet less than the Town
send stack in the same locality, but
Tenants stack stands on q more
elevated part OF the city and so to the
onlooker appears taller than it's
neighbor. Some interesting opera
tions were recently carried out in con-
nection with the repairing of Ten
nant's stack. A local steeplejack Of
note, who has kept the two chimneys
in repair for the past twenty-five
years mounted to the top of the
stack, adopting a different method
from that used by him about two
years ago, when he climbed the stack
at Port Dundas. On that occasion
he mounted by means of kite-hying,
which enabled the necessary ropes
for the ascent being thrown over the
top of the chimney.
On the present occasion he adopt
ed q handler, and, on the whole, .
safer plan. This is known as the
ladder process, and is much in vogue
among contractors for chimney re-
pairing. The occasion was the first
time the method has been used for .
chimney OF so great a height. and
when fully erected the ladder was the
highest in the world. The first sec
ton was planted against the chimney
and nailed securely by hooked iron
pins eighteen inches long and an inch
thick. Section after section each
eighteen feet long was then hoisted
up, and after being dashed together,
was fastened in the same manner to
the chimney-the difficult work, as
will be readily understood, requiring
great care and attention. The ladders
used were OF yellow pine. and of the
lightest possible make, with fat steps
IN inch by an inch and half broad.
One advantage OF this process is that
the work OF repairing does not, as in
the case Of kite, require to wait for
a favorable wind. but can be begun ut
any time, and the preliminary opera
tons thus over, it is simply matter

Armenians Outrages Are Said to Be
Not as Black as Painted.
The London Daily News publishes n
three-column letter from Constantinople
giving a history of the Armenian out
RACES. The writer admits from the out
set, though he says that the officials de-
mails are as foolish and conflicting rs
those that followed the Bulgarian atroci-
ties, that from all the evidence he has
been able to gather, in point of the num-
bers killed and villages burned, the Ar
menian outrages cannot be compared
with the Bulgarian atrocities. Still, 1t is
a bad business, the extent of which will
not be known until the consular reports
are published. A curious feature has
been the partial success which has at
tended the efforts TO suppress news of
the outrages. This is due to the fact that
all the postoffices are in Turkish hands
and no scruple is made of opening letters.
This is so well known that nobody dares
to describe the affair except in general
terms. The newspapers in CONSTANT
nople are forbidden to use the word Ar
menia.

BUSINESS AT A STAND.

Prospects for Better Trade After JAM
nary Are Bright.
II. g. Dun & Co.'S Review says: 1t is
difficult to detect any change in current
business Prospects for business after
Jan. are quite generally considered
more hopeful; in some branches there are
larger orders and the west-bound ship
ments of merchandise are little larger,
but the working force naturally dimin-
jshes near the end of the year and the
holiday traffic brings just now temper
airy activity which is not of much general
significance The meeting of Congress
and the announcement of the new cur
rency plan and of various bills proposed
have not affected the situation precepti-
bly,. On the whole agricultural products
are scarcely stronger and wages of labor
do not advance, but there is reason to ex-
pect the employment of a somewhat
larger working force after the holidays.
The expected government report on feed
ing cattle and hogs has scarcely infu-
enced the market. 1t Is doubted whether
the estimate is more reliable than the es-
Inmates of yield of wheat and cotton,
which are not regarded seriously.
