S~PECULATED In SUGAR.
Confession Of Theodore Baron. Who
Ruined Himself and Father.

NEW YORK, Sept 1--Unsuccessful spec
ulation in Sugar by a junior partner was
the cause of the failure of the large knit
goods. manufacturing house OF I. S. Baron
& Co., and Of s.. Baron, of this city. The
confession was made to a meeting of the
firms creditors to-day by Theodore Baron,
who places his loss at s.. 100. The latter is
a son of the senior member OF the firm.
For years 7. 8. Baron & CO. did a pros
porous business. and when IN assignment
was made last month 1t was a surprise to
the trade. Counsel for the firm said to-day
that the assets were $122, 1872. 10; preferences,

to pay 3S1a cents on the dollar, but in
stead submitted a proposition for %
cents on the dollar. This basis OF

the statement sheet noticed an unexplained
deficit of 100, and asked for an e~xplana-
ton. Theodore Baron was visibly agitated,
and his face flushed as he said:
Gentlemen, 1 took that 81. 100 unknown to

And what did you speculate in, pray?'
demanded a creditor.
Sugar answered Mr.. Baron.
"An0 you drew out the money unknown
to your partner. i demand that this story
be investigated. Let US have his bank
books and brokers accounts"
Counsel insisted that the young man was
telling the truth. Subsequently the cred
itors agreed 10 a compromise OF 80 I-3 per

SHERIDAN AND BURNSIDE
And the Part They Took in the Fran.
cO-Prussian War.
Hoosac Valley New.


The following story was told by General
Burnside TO Col c. Frank Luther: 1t will be
remembered that Sheridan accompanied
the Prussian staff through the war of Ger
many against France in 1901 and was a
guest at the headquarters of King William
during that great struggle. On the other
hand, Burnside was in Paris during the
siege and saw the contest from behind the
walls. 1t became desirable for the pro-
visional government Of France to COM
municate with the German leaders, but the
question 10 be determined was a delicate
one, and not only a noncombatant. but a

negotiations. In addition the diplomatic

TT CAUSED SURPRISE
JUSTIN M,CARTHY,s MARRIAGE DIS
CUSsED IN THEATRICAL CIRCLES.
Henry Irving Dependent ms to the
Future of the English Drama-The
Gayety GirIs-Suit for $4,000.

LONDON, Sept. 1.-The theatrical week
has been chiefly noticeable by the return
to town of the last vacation stragglers, the
reopening Of Terry's Theater and the Com
edy Theater, and the sensational announce
ment of the day of the marriage on
Wednesday last at Edinburgh Of Justin
Huntley Mccarthy, the son of Justin Nc
Carthy, NJ. p, to Cissy Lotus, the rising
young actress who has already made a
name for herself as an impersonator of
leading actresses.
The marriage of young Mr.. Mccarthy
was a decided surprise, although he has for
a long time past been devoted to Cissy
Lotus, escorting her to the theaters, etc.
A year ago it was announced that he was
married to Ada Jenoure, but In the present
case there seems to be no doubt that the
young man Is married. People, however.
are not able to understand why he did not
marry Miss Lotus In London, especially
as he was obliged to reside twenty-one
DAVIS i'm Edinburgh before he could get the
necessary license to marry. The marriage.
naturally, is the principal topic of chatter
In theatrical circles generally and among
the friends and acquaintance of the two
contracting parties in particular.
The theatrical world, in addition to dis
cussing the McCarthy-Loftu marriage, is
also commenting upon the ball given at
the Prince of Wales Theater yesterday
evening by Mr.. George Edward and to his
American ''gayety girl company. The
.gayety girls sailed to-day by the steam
ship Berlin from southampton for New
York. This ball completed a round of fare
well gayeties which included a W lat

last. At Waterloo station, this morning, the
ssgayety girls were sent off on their jour-
ney in grand style, the bearers OF hun
dreds of farewell letters, kilograms, bou-
quets, etc.
Henry Irving confesses himself despond-
ent as to the future OF English drama. He
SAYS: '"The music halls are unduly over
tapping the theaters. and many theaters
are taking on the vulgar ways of the halls"
During his now finished vacation at Gair-
loch Mr.. Irving unbosomed himself on this
state or municipal aid and recognition. The
theater is or might be a great educative
and moral power. and in different senses
il stands greatly in need of municipal rec
ognition. Mr.. Irving has repeatedly dis
cussed this proposition with Mr. Gladstone.

everybody is complaining of sore feet. 1t
may be corns. it is often rheumatism, and
again Ii Is just a soreness OF the tissues.
Whatever it is, it is disa agreeable, and often
painful. Quite often no remedy will reach
the trouble, but some few will find that the
following will at least alleviate the trouble
in a measure: In the first place, wash the
feet night and morning. Battle them at
night in water as hot as can be borne.
That will rest them and take out some of
the soreness. Witch hazel Will help to take
out the tired feeling. Wear clean hose.
Change every day, and if you cannot afford
so many changes, wash out your stockings
at night in a bow of ammonia water, rinse
and hang up to dry. Clean stockings are
the first requisite of healthy feet. II you
