JOHN KNIGHTS HARD LUCK.
He Caught n Runaway and Was
Arrested for Horse-SteaIing.

Two years ago John Knecht. Of 2e7
Avenue A, was a prosperous cider mer-
chant, to-day, through his lawyer, Will
lam John Warburton. he applied to JUS
tice Fitzsimons, in City Court, Cham
bers. to sue as a Door person.
The cause of this change of fortune
was brought about in a remarkable way.
Knecht says that II he had not stopped
a horse that was running away with a
wagon that he subsequently learned was
owned by Edward Michel, who was a
livery stable in East Fifteenth street,
near First avenue, on a certain day in
December. 1892. he would be a prosper
GUS man to-day: instead of which he had
to petition for permission to prosecute
his suit to recover 5000 damages from
Michel, the owner OF the animal. He
caught the horse as 1t dashed past his
store. and failing to find an owner
for 1t. took 1t to the Eldridge street
police station, where they told him to
put 1t In a livery sable. He did so. and
was subsequently arrested for stealing
the animal. After remaining in jail
nearly a week he was arraigned in
Essex Market Police Court, when the
truth was learned and he was dis
charged.
During his absence a rival had set up
a shop near him and this. together with
the fact that he had been arrested, as
a horse thief, he says. ruined him. Jus
tice Fitzsimons granted his petition.

MARKET OPENS WITH A RISE.
Trading Is Light, but a Firm Tone
Prevails.
Belief that Bland Bill Will Be
Vetoed Grows Stronger.

The week opened at the Stock Elk
change with a tendency towards further
improvement in values. The belief In a
veto OF the Bland Selgniorage bill has
been strengthened by the tenor OF the
dispatches from Washington since Satur-
day, and this induced the bulls to take
hold with fresh VIM.
Operations, however, were

market is closed curtailing business. The

feet on the market. The chances are

An Appeal for Funds.

All temperance workers are now
aware that, as president of the Worlds
Woman's Christian Temperance Union,
Miss Frances E. Willard has issued
call for the observance of Gen. Neal
BOWS ninetieth birthday, on March 20.
They also know that no temperance
demonstration was ever quite complete
without an appeal for money. The
leaders of this movement hope that the
collections received by the different To-
cal societies on that day will be equally
divided between the treasury of the
Worlds w. G. T. U. and any local
work that may be in need of funds.
The Worlds W. c. T. u, is, so far as
we know, the only temperance organ
ization having worldwide constitu-
ency and engaging in foreign mission
work. The salaries of the secretaries,
with that of the missionary in India, Ito
say nothing of the necessarily enormous
postage and stationery bills) are regular
expenditures for which funds are
greatly needed. A small grant, just at
this time, would greatly help the work
of our missionary in Africa, and the
doors of China and Japan are open to
us could we raise the money to send out
workers,

Henry Somerset would probably get Of

point whether the miners are or are
not right in their refusal to work on the
masters terms, ungrudging admiration
is due to the efforts of Lady Henry
Somerset and other noble women to
alleviate the suffering of the miners
wives and children. In addition to a
handsome gift of money, she has, so to
speak, devised dietary which has
proved great success at Barnsley, and,
if the strike or lookout continues, will
probably be adopted in other of the dis
tricts where the distress is most acute y
felt. The provision of good, substan-
tial dinner for less than three farthings,
which is effected under Lady Henry
Somerset's scheme, seems the perfect

TEMPERANCE.
Downfall Of Bacchus.
Published by request, !

Guard well your laurels. rum king,
For woman Is your foe,
And the arm you deem so feeble
May bring your proud head low.
The wrongs of years are nerving
Her heart for the fearful strife,
And the cause in which she's fighting
Is dearer far than life
You have taken our hearts best idol,
And slain before our eyes,
While she sat in speeches. sorrow
Too deep for tears or signs.
Her fair.browed sons you have stolen,
And with arts too black for hell,
Learned them to hug the serpent
Through whose device they fell.
But look, we say, to your laurels,
For she who has borne so long
VIII yet prove that the battle
Abides not with the strong.
But with your recruiting forces
Will be her strongest hold,
For she will swear the youth to hatred,
Like Hamilcar of old.
Aud here will be the healing
OF your foes unyielding power,
For women hold the scepter
Through childhood's plastic hour.
Then prepare, o sons of Bacchus,
To march to the mufiled drum,
For the end is fixed and certain
OF the mighty king of rum.
Twill be vain to man your legions;
No opposing force you'll see,
For wilier she than Indian
Who turks hind rock and tree.
She will aim to SOW dissension
In your own ranks, o king,
And round your bravest warrior
A subtle charm will fling.-M E. ".
