HORSE MEAT IN PARIS.

In the survey of the butcher shops,
one duty is to make sure that horse, ass and
lnuie meats are iloV ni1sq 40 t.o.ins ias besl.
Not that their sale is forbidden. On the con
trary, the municipal laboratory itself has
declared this sort of nourishment IAN excel

meat be sold as equine and not bovine, and
that the animals which furnish it be notde-
crepit or diseased
The first point is regulated by establishing
shops especially for the sale of horse meat
Or. If it is sold from cart or in a regularly
licensed butcher shop, by requiring that it
be marked plainly. The sale of horse meat
has grown to enormous proportions since the
first shop was established in 1886. The esti-
mate is that it ise eaten now in a third of tae
Partisan households. In 1891, twenty one

sixty-one mules, and two hundred and sew

LYNoH1EG TOO GOOD FOR THEM.

The wife of Adam Gedeski of Weehawken
yesterday heard her daughter Mary, eleven
years old, scream, and she ran to another
room in their apartments and found the
child being assaulted by Michael Corneski.
The mother sprang like tiger on the scoun-
drel and he fled from the house as soon as he
could free himself A warrant was obtained
by Mrs. Gedeski and her husband from JUS
tice RIVER for the arrest of Corneskl and he
was taken into custody. He was committed
to the County Jail for the action Of the
Grand Jury.
Peter Peterson, a 'longshoreman of Newark
and Hudson streets, Hoboken, was arrested
this morning in that city charged with at
tempting to assault Nellie Yarrack, the five
year old daughter of feed merchant at Fifth
and Grand streets. Peterson accosted the
Girl in Church Square Park and
by promises Of candy induced her to go with
him to the bridges leading to the bath at the
foot Of Third street. There he was arrested
by Parkkeeper Sullivan, who, becoming sus-
picious of his actions had followed him from
the park.
When the girls father heard of Peterson's
actions he became violent and declared he
would kill the longshoreman.

Yacht Oneida arrived before daylight yes
terday morning, and Mrs Cleveland enter
tanned at Gray Gables yesterday the Bene-
diets OF East Greenwich. The Oneida left at
five o'clock P. NJ The reasonable certainty
that President Cleveland VIII arrive at Gray
Gables either on Saturday or Sunday, or at
least before the national holiday has led the
cottagers along shore to prepare for a
demonstration in his honor.
At a number of the more prominent villas
there viii be fireworks. A yacht race of the
Beverly Yacht Club will take place that
afternoon over the course below Gray
Gables and series of minor boat racing and
water and land sports will be INDUCED in at
Butterinilk Bay by the Joseph Jefferson
colony.
At Onset Bay there is an influx of well
known theatrical people this month, and
they propose to enter into the honors of the
Executive. Details of the demonstration
will probably not be arranged definitely
until the President arrives.

NEW YORK, June 25, 1S94.-Parents and
| friends seeking the latest news of relatives
who had been on the Inflated fishing excur-

this morning, recommended as early
as five O'clock. All morning the police
were besieged by the crowd. Among those
reported missing were:-Alfred Pabst, twen-

BEST DRESSED WOMAN.

The best dressed woman in the world is
said to be Queen Margaret of Italy. Her
wardrobe includes countless variety of
elegant costumes, and she seldom wears q
dress more than once. This is not quite
such recklessly extravagant proceeding as
at first appears, for the Queen sells her
gowns to buyers, who are very glad to
get them, even at the high prices which
are charged for them. In this connec-
ton there is a pretty story told. Not
long since Queen Margaret asked her
royal consort for his opinion as to whether
she was still young enough to wear her IA

LONDON, June 25, 1S94-The Vigilant,

taken out and her racing spars and boom,
which were brought over on the steamer
Ethiopia, put on board and fixed up, but she
was not placed on the slip to clean her bot

her first race, which will take place at Large
on July 3, against the Britannia and

The VaIkyrie's sail area has been increased
by 1,200 feet and 315 tons Of lead has been
added to her keel. If she carries the extra
sail she will be much faster than before. In
comparing their spars, the Vallzyrie and
Vigilant seem to be equal Experts say the
Vigilant will be better handled here than
she was in America. Hank Half will be In
command of her, and old Morris, of Large,
the most experienced pilot in these waters,

stretch their sails today. Vigilant's sail area
is the same as when she won the America 8

Nelson, fourteen years old, when she seated
herself, today, in the witness chair to testify
concerning the criminal assaults made on
her by her stepfather, Frederick B. Sparks,
of No. 447 Spring street, West Hoboken.
Eva said that she had lived at home until
January last and then she went to live in
home OF her uncle. She swore that during
December, when her mo6har was away from
home on visit to an aunt SPARKS assaulted
her five or six times and threatened to kill
her if she made known the crime.
When Eva went to her uncle's house to
live and had been there several weeks, her
aunt questioned her, and Eva then told her
that she feared she would become a mother,
and she charged the stepfather with the re-
sponsibility
Sparks, when called as witness, denied the
story. Of the girl and declared she went out
walking nights with young men. This was

that her daughter had been playing

sign for the flag was from a drawing
made by George Washington with q
pencil, and the flag thus de igned was
adopted by resolution of Congress on
the 18th day of June, I'LL. A commit
tee of Congress, accompanied by Cen
eral Washington, afterward called up
on Mrs. Ross and engaged her to make
a flag from this design. The fag EN-
made is now known the world over as
the Star Spangied Banner of the Uni
ted States. There Is a str king resem-
blauce between the design of our flag
and the arms of General Washington,
and it is believed by many that the
American flag was derived from this
heraldic design.
Several flags were used by the peo-
pie of the States before the present
one was adopted. In the month Of
March, 1875, red flag was hoisted in
New York, bearing on one side the
inscription, George Rex and the Lib
critics OF America, and on the other
side, NO Porery." In July, l775, on
