Why Does the Beard Hasten to DO Gray7
A New Yorker not in his first youth
said: My beard is 20 years younger
than my hair and looks 20 years older
that is, as you see, it is almost entire
ly white, while there are comparatively
few even gray hairs on my head. They
are not in evidence, either, while the
whiteness of my beard jumps to the
eyes, as the French say. Will some
barber OF other capillary wise man an.

beard grow white so much sooner than
the hair:"--New York Sun.

The Soldiers Orphans Home OF St
Louis Seeks an Accounting for $11,-
OOO,OOO Worth of Bonds.
Russell Sage and he execI.o-s of The es-
tate Of Jay Gould, as trustees for the con-
solidated mortgage bonds of the Kansas
Pacific Railway Company, have been sued
in the United States circuit court of New
York for an accounting of $11,OOO.OOO worth
of these bonds.
Several months ago a suit of a similar
nature was brought by John Quincy Adams
of Boston. who has since died, thus in
validating the suit. In the present action

pears complainant. The suit is really
brought at the instance of committee of
bondholders, consisting of Silas Il. butcher,
president of the Hamilton Trust Company
Henry NJ. Whitney of Nissan, Whitney &
Co.; Otto I. Barnard, president of the Con-
tinental Trust Company; eX-Controller
Myers, and William A. Nash, president of
the Corn Exchange Bank Charles p. Daily
and l.. j. Morrison are counsel to the COM
mittee.
The complaint asks that Russell Sage and
George J. Gould be removed from the trus-
teeship, that they be enjoined from inter-
fering with the trust assets and that a re-
ceiver be appointed.
sas Pacific Railway Company executed a
deed of trust to Jay Gouii and Russell
Sage, as trustees, to secure Kansas Pacific
consolidated bonds, and as part Of the
collateral security conveyed in trust to
Gould and Sage 10000 shares of the capital
stock of the Denver Facinc Railway and
Telegraph Company. Then come direct
charges of fraud The complaint goes on:
And now your orator shows that the
said Jay Gould and Russell Usage were false
and faithless to their trust, and conceived
the scheme Of taking 90 iothemselves the
Denver Pacific trust stock and appropri-
ating it to themselves. They did. in fact,
abstract the trust property, and to cover
ity employed certain worthless devices.
They brought purely fictitious suit,
brought in the name of the Kansas Pacific
Railway Company, CONT "a by lnemae., es

to take the property of the bondholders.
Thereupon the trust stock was passed
through the mortgagor company to Jay
Gould and Russell Sage and it or its pro-
ceeds were taken by Gould and Sage and
have since been retained as part of their
individual estates"
The complaint declares that these devices
are null and void and give no color of
legality to the acts of spoliation committed
by Trustees Gould and Sage and, further,
that they are accoun table for the trust

Saturdays Ball Games.

Washington lost the base ball game on
Saturday a. Pittsburg, principally through
lack of consecutive hitting. The Senators
helded brilliantly. making fewer errors
than the Pirates, and also batted hard, but
The majority of the hits of the Pittsburgers
counted for runs. Stocksdale and Mcclure,
Gumbert. Sugden and Weaver were the bat

Owens Wins in the Kentucky Democratic

Desha Breckenridge Last Night Claim

Col. w. C. P. Breckenridge was defeated
for the democratic nomination for Con-
gress in the primaries Of the Ashland. KY,
district on Saturday. His defeat was in
dicated by the dispatches printed in The
Star. showing that Owens was running
away from his rival. The best figures OBJ
tainable last night gave totals for candi-
dates as follows: Owens, 1890; Breckin-
ridge, 1870: Settle, 3,4O5: Owens plurality.

today, will probably vary but little from
these figures.
Many Breckenridge men were reluctant
yesterday, at Frankfort, to acknowledge
their defeat Some Of them were still
claiming the nomination Of Col Breckfn-
ridge by a small majority. They based
their hopes Of contesting the election on
the fact that the Owen county vote fell

Catcher Farrell says that in all his expe-
rience on the ball field he knew of no game
so hard to lose as that in which New York
was shut out by st. Louis. II would have
bet 800 to 10 cents that Tiernan's hit in
the eighth was going safe. but the strong
wind held 1t up till Hogan barely got to IT.

THE REVIVAL OF BUSINESS.
A Heavy Cotton Crop Predicted for
the South.

From the New York Times.
A gentleman who has just returned from
a visit to the south, and whose opinions
are accepted in financial circles in this city
as those of a conservative and careful
observer, entitled to great weight has some
things to say concerning the condition of
affairs in the southern country that are
worthy of consideration.
My trip" said he, covered the country
east of the Mississippi. and in that terri
tory / found the most remarkable change,
not merely in the condition of affairs gen.
orally, but in the tone and temper Of the
people. / found evidences of this changed
condition for the better not only on the
railroads. but also in the centers Of popula-
ton, and even in the smaller towns. There
can be no question about the crops Of cot
ton and of corn. The former will simply be
tremendous. Intelligent attention has been
given to the crop OF grains, vegetables, &c,
and this ought to surpass the most SAN
guine expectations.
The indications all point to the largest
cotton crop on record. This crop has been
produced at the minimum price; that Is to
say, the farmers have devoted themselves
50 earnestly to this. their staple crop. that
they have mortgaged the future TO a very
considerable extent. In cases which came
under my observation the farmers had even
gone without meat to avoid mourning the
Indebtedness usually incident to the rails
ing and the marketing of this crop.
These southern farmers are becoming
exceedingly conservative I'm the conduct OF
their affairs and their spirit is reflected
throughout the territory which / visited.
1T extends to the manufacturing indus
tries. The settlement of the great strike
some time ago I'm 50 conservative and salts
factory a manner has had its effect in the
south. The Industries OF that section are
gradually resuming operations. The future
has a great deal In store for the people of
the south, and they are beginning TO real
lie that fact in that section.
THE full significance Of this resumption
OF Industry has not, OF course. been realized,
because the cotton crop has not yet been
marketed. But II is certain to be felt in
time. In my judgment. the south is on the
upward incline. Step by step. round by
round on the ladder, the south Is bound to
develop. In a word. 1t is on the upward
grade. and 1t Is to be congratulated in con-
sequence"

WALTER WELLMAN's RETURN.
This Has Been a had Ycar for Arctic

Spitzberger arctic expedition will sail from

yesterday Mr.. Wellman said that the fall
ure of Lieut.. Peary to reach North Green
land shows tina, like the wellman expedi-
ton, he ct with unusual difficulties arising
from tn, extr nelly unfavorable season.
Altogether, Mr.. weilman declared 1t had
been a bad year for arctic exploration.
He warmly defended his expedition
against the charges made of inexperience
and bad outfit. He especially protested that
he had nor abandoned Prof Oyen on Danes
Island. The professor, he added, had !, 2OO
pounds Of provisions on the island, and was
therefore in no danger whatever Of suffer
ing for lack of food. Prof. Oyen himself
had publicly absolved him from the charge
of abandonment.
In conclusion. Mr.. Wellman stated that
all the Norwegian members of the expedi-
ton had promised to accompany the next
expedition. AS to Messrs. French, Mohun
and Dodge. truer. Drawer or better men
could not be found.

oial. LABOR day did not interfere with
the attendance at the fair. In fact. the
crowd was much larger than on any day
since the opening day.
For a few days the fair has suffered
somewhat as a result of the publication in
detail of what malicious gossips are saying
about the management, board of trustees
and the other officials. Some OF the pub
LEGATIONS would rejoice at any embarrass-
ment to the managers of the fair that
might result.
Everything is advancing satisfactorily.
New exhibits are coming in and what space
was unoccupied, although engaged on the
opening day, is being rapidly filled. The
Turks who established booths on the floor
of the main building and were removed
pending the adjustment of their rights
have been reInstated. Foreign Commits
sioner Stiles will continue in that Office.
Tonight was the liveliest thus far on the
grounds. There wa. a large and jolly
crowd; the tand concert was excellent,
and the parade of the occupants of the
street of Cairo and the Egyptian wedding
at the Turkish theater were the prime at
fractions All the concessionaires made
money hand over fist, and everybody was
delighted.
The trustees have finally decided to keep
the fair open on Sundays from 10 in
forenoon until IL at night. Pioneer day
will be October IL: q. a. r. days October
