THE LATE GENERAL sL0CUM.
A Career Distinguished for Brilliant
Military Work.

Henry w. Slocum, whose death is an
nounced, was one of the brilliant sue
cesses of the war of the rebellion, says
the Anaconda Standard. A native Of
Onondaga county, New York, he was
graduated at West Point but, after a
brief service. he gave up the army,
studied law, was admitted and was
practicing at Syracuse, N. Y, with in
different success when the war
broke out. He was 4S years old. He
had been d Wing, but he was then
rousing young Republican" He ten
dered his services and was soon
afterward put in command of regi-
ment. He fought at Bull Run and
was severely wounded. He shared in
the fights at Gaines Mills, Malvern
Hill, South Mountain, Fredericksburg,
and Charlottesville, always with con-
spicuous bravery and judgment. He
won the rank of brigadier and then of
commanded the right wing of the
army, and the undisputed testimony
out of that much disputed battle is
that Slocum contributed largely to the
victory. He succeeded General Hooker
in the command of the Twentieth
corps, which was the first body of
troops to enter the city of Atlanta,
in the famous march to the sea.
General Slocums old friends and
neighbors in Central New York were
immensely proud of his career; they
We're ready to do anything for him, and
his Homecoming, after the war, was
to be made a memorable occasion. To
their amazement, just before his re-
turn, they heard that he had turned
Democrat. Men were not turning
Democratic in those days. Republican
ism was at the very crest of its highest
wave. Nobody could understand the
change; it turned out that all along
General Slocum had been in sympathy
with those who were for sustaining
General George B. Mcclellan, whose ia
nous controversy with Mr.. Lincoln is
familiar history.
So intense was popular feeling in
those days that the reception accorded
General Slocum lost all its warmth
He felt it and after a time he trans
ferred his residence to Brooklyn. In
later years, as Democrat, he served
two or three terms in Congress, al
though in 1865, directly at the close OF
the war, when soldiers were getting
everywhere, he was defeated as a can
date for the office of secretary of the
state of New York. Later on he was
president of the Brooklyn board of pub
lie works; he was a Brooklyn bridge
commissioner.
General Slocum's career is distin-
guished chiefly for its military part,
and that assuredly was brilliant. He
is one Of the most prominent members
of the Grand Army of the Republic,
and while he was always and earnestly
opposed to the inconsiderate increase of
the pension roll UP to it's present for
midable total, he is recognized through
out the land as one of the Stanchest
friends the Union veterans ever had.

He HEALS THEM
ALL BY FAITH.
A FEW OF THE TROPHIES WON BY
REV. j. A. DO ~.
Remarkable Stories Told of Alleged
miraculous Cures-Typhoid Fever
Patient Raised from His Bed in
One Day-aTiss Loman's Experien-
ces,

Chicago, April 16.-Central Music hall
was packed from floor to ceiling Sun
day afternoon with persons drawn
osity to hear Rev. j. A. Dowie, the
faith healer, and the testimony of those
who have been cured of their diseases
through his ministry. Many who
went to see healing accomplished We're
disappointed, and had to be content
with hearing the testimony of those
who had been healed.
A table stood beside the little pulpit
which was piled high with crutches,
trusses. braces, cork shoes and other
articles belonging to cripples, also set
of safe blowers tools and a revolver
DIR. Dowie pointed to this strange col
lection as a few of the trophies won
for the faith healing cause in Chicago.
The meeting opened with prayer and
song. Then Rev. Dowie gave a
biblical address and followed it up with
a statement of the principles of faith
healing. When this sermon was over
an hour and a half was given to testi-
monials.
The first patient brought forward
was Willie Essex, a 9-year-old boy.
Willie identified a pair of clutches and
a steel brace as belonging to him. He
had hip joint disease and was taken
by his mother to the Zion tabernacle
and after prayer by Mr.. Dowie, he had
laid down his clutches, took off his
steel brace that encased his leg and
walked home. That was about a month
ago. He is now as active as any 10
year-old boy.
David Cowan, a lawyer, told how
DR.. Dowie had cured his son of a
kidney disease and himself of a kidney
disease of long standing.
John Alendorf said, last week his
wife was in bed with typhoid fever and
was cured in a day.
Miss May Loman told the most re-
markable story. From Infancy she had
Ia withered leg from the knee down.
1T was incapable of sensation and part
was wasted almost to the bone. 1t
was one and half inches shorter than
the other.
Last June she went to Dr. Dowie.
He prayed for her leg. AT once she
could feel a trickling of the blood
coursing through the withered leg, and
a moment after she attempted to walk
and could feel the limb cracking as
the bone and tendons united. Her
leg is the same length as the other.
From that day she has been as SOUND
in that leg as in the other.
A number of other instances OF re-
markable cures were recited.

LOCAL ADJUSTMENTS.
SPIDER AND FLY" AT THE THE
ATRE LAST EVENING.
1t Went to n Crowded Hou@e-Art
Lecture Postponed-A Number OF
Social Affairs.

Empty benches have been the rule
so long it really does ones heart good
to see an old-time crowded house.
That's the kind of house Spider and
Fly had at the Salt Lake Theatre last
night. The lower floor was full, per-
haps little heaping; as the grocer
would say, good measure" And the
galleries found the crowd thickened
the higher they got until the top roost
was reached, and this was packed so
full it looked from below like lot of
bats hanging by their heels to the roof
of cave.
I was much surprised to find a lack
of any marked enthusiasm until along
towards the last. The show was
good one, and the audience good
humored, and why this didn't kindle
enthusiasm at every favorable turn
cannot say. Perhaps a good many OF
the boys (the boys were all thers)
expected to find things decidedly
risque, and were disappointed.
OF course the Putnam sisters were
warmly received. They are great ia
vorites everywhere, and owe their
some personality exceedingly attract
i've. The best speciality feature on the
programme was done by the Donazetto
trio, equilibessts, who did an acrobatic
turn in the third act that was de-
cidedly good. 1t captured the audience.
Will Vaudeville had a funny mono
logue in the second act, and made him
self generally comically useful through
out the evening, chanting mot singing
some taking topical song,
Cyrene, the dancer. for some reason
did not arouse any remarkable enthu-
siasm. Her dancing deserved the
warmest approval. She possesses a
wonderful combination of physical
agility and acrobatic ability-and
grace It's combination not found in
any dancer on the stage of today that
/ have seen. Cyrene's high kick is
high-very extremely highland the
one positively graceful high-kick on
| the stage today.
The settings of the stage were gor-
geous. and prolific. and aided in the
| spectacular effects The ballet was
formed of maidens shapely of figure
and generally handsome of feature
They Were dressed in the usual scant
costumes, but there was nothing offens-
i've in the dressing of these DANES,
| judging from modern standards In
fact about the only thing that made
the bald headed boys on the front row
| think they had not come in vain was
| the Midway Plaisance dance of BERTHE
Crawford But when BERTHE tried to
sing there was an ominous silence in
place Of applause.
| The performance had some ragged
! edges, but on the whole was satisfy
inging, giving plenty of bright color
ing, good ensemble effects, dancing,
singing, and the general stage beauty
expected of extravaganzas.
Cyrene's engagement with the Spider
and Fly" closes with last nights per
tormance, and she will not appear with
that organization again this season.

New York. April 16.-The feature of
the share speculation at the opening
of business this morning was sugar,
and this stock monopolized the deal
ings up to noon, the rest of the list
being stagnant The stock was bought
by the same brokers who manipulated
the deal on Saturday, and presumably
for the same clique. Buying was quite
brisk, and within less than q of an
hour an advance of 24 per cent had
been established. AS usual, the proba-
bility of a change in the tariff bill more
favorable to the refiners was claimed
to De the motive for the improvement,
but ii is not unlikely that better pros
poets had a good deal to do with the
advance Before IL o'clock the pur-
chasing movement had lost its force,
and the price began to sag off grad
ually, the last sale being made at a
figure rs below the highest point
touched. leaving only a gain of % on
the day.
After noon, Chicago Gas jumped
into prominence and an advance of 80
per cent was quickly made, but in the
subsequent dealings IA cent of the
Improvement was lost, the closing price
being - per cent better than the last
made on Saturday.
The general market was very dull,
and the shares were not heavy, fluctua-
lions being within narrow limits.
st. Paul was sold by London and the
local trades, declining % and closing
at the lowest point touched. The other
grangers were weak IN sympathy,
Burlington making a loss o. Is, North
west y and Rock Island Il. At the
close the tone of speculation was heavy
and compared with Saturdays closing
prices were irregular.
The bond market was active but
rather weak ali day, although some
shares recorded gains.

BOSTON QUOTATIONS.
CHICAGO GENERAL MARKET.

Wheat got a weak start from the bear
ish nature of the early news. Foreign ad-
vices were to the effect that showers pre-
vailed in England, and private dispatch
from StrasSburg, Germany, said that
heavy rains were general there, and the
crop prospects which were good before
Stll remained so.
Some more rain had fallen in Kansas
and of all the planks i'll the dry weather
platform of the recent short bull campaign
the drought in California remained. Even
that was jumped upon this morning, d
dispatch from New York being received
here about the opening reporting rain in
on passage had increased $4,000 bushels,
and India appeared to have shipped more
literally than of late.
Beerbohms cable gives $4,000 bushels
as midas contribution to the quantity
afioat. The receipts in the northwest were
again liberal.
All these matters put together caused a
decline in prices here of l cent per bushel
in 20 minutes, compared with Saturday s
closing. Closing cables came weak and
caused another spell of comparatively
heaviness here. May dropped to 55S4 After
the u decline on the report Of the weak
closing cables, there was some more har-
which started the crowd TO buying again
and the market went higher than before
and closed at so and 601a for May
The corn market was strong after a
'1omentary mt of weakness at the opening
! and closed firm with a gain of one-quarCer
of a cent.
Provisions We're strong and closed at
the top of 80 cent advance in pork
The estimated receipts for tomorrow are:
| Wheat, los cars; corn, $50 cars; oats 227
cars; hogs, Il, 1000.
The leading futures ranged as follows.

Now my poem I'll indite,

But she ne'er became poet
Her young head

So she said
Since I've missed the muse of song,
And 10 art may not belong,
Would it then be very wrong,

A CASE OF WHEELS.
A Man Who Says Christ Has Given
Him Commands

Bridgeport, Conn, April 16.-Twenty
years ago Hillman Stillings got an idea
into his head that Christ was to visit
the earth again and when He came he
(Stillings) was to be the right hand
man. At that time he left his friends,
climbed to the top Of Mount Archer,
one of the tallest peaks in the state,
and took up his abode in a rude cabin.
Ever since he has lived there. In all
that time neither his hair nor beard has
been cut, and now he is one of the
dueerest looking personages one can
imagine. Last night he announced that
Christ had visited the earth and COM
manded him to lead a host to Wash
ington and join the army of the COM
monweal He has gained great in
fluence over the unemployed in this
city and it is announced that he will
shortly start out with a large follow
ing of woodchoppers and others who
have been out of work all winter.

VERY GOOD BEAR STORY.
Nicely Told, but it Is Probably a
Rank Fake.

Johnson City, Tenn. April 16.-Jere
Sands had a terrible conflict with a
bear in Grassy Cave on Saturday. The
animal had been trapped, and when
Sands came upon the scene the infur-
lated beast broke his letters and was
upon the hunter in an instant. The
bear seized his left arm in its jaws,
his gun dropping from the hand of
the mangled limb. In moment the
mountaineer was in the embrace of
his antagonist. They fell to the ground
and rolling over and over went down
the mountain side thirty yards and
dropped off ledge of rock twelve feet.
The bear happened to fall underneath,
and during the momentary shock
which followed the half dead man
managed to draw his knife and plunge
it into the animals neck, severing the
jugular vein.
This ended the battle, but Sands
was so badly hurt that he could not
return home, and was found by a
searching party.

DONE UP IN STYLE.
The Story of How Marshall Was
Robbed of $500.

HObbed of $500.
Pony, April 14-As near as can he
learned, the man Marshall who was
halted and robbed of $500 yesterday
afternoon, by two masked men near
Norris, left Bozeman on Thursday
morning and was on his way to the
upper Madison valley to buy horses
and cattle. He had a blackboard and
one horse, and the money was con-
cealed in his boots. When about three
miles south of Norris and jogging along
leisurely, a masked man boarded the
blackboard from behind and, holding a
gun to his head, ordered him not to
look around. Marshall obeyed. An
other man appeared on the scene and
securely tied a gunny sack over Mar
shalrs face, completely binding him.
Next the horse was unhitched. Then
they proceeded to take off Marshalrs
coat and vest and, falling to find the
desired booty, his boots were removed
and $3.50 secured from each. The men
then hitched up the horse and started
lit, and Marshall was told to walk along
behind and unite the gunny sack from
his face as he went. Having gone a
short distance in this way, he ventured
to turn back, but was ordered not TO
do so under penalty of death.
Marshall went to Ennis and gave the
alarm. A posse of men, headed by
Deputy Sheriff w. ]. Ennis, immediate
ly started in pursuit Beyond the fact
that the men had the general appear
ance of cowboys, no information re-
garding their identity can be obtained,
as the entire proceedings up to the
time of blindfolding Marshall were car
ried on behind his back.
One of the men wore spurs, and it
is presumed they had horses close by.
The general supposition is that the men
knew all about Marshall and the money
and followed him from Bozeman with
the intention of robbing him.-Ana-
|conda Standard.
