KRUMM MUST STAND TRIAL.
Lexow Saloon Keeper Witness
Held for Excise Lawbreaking.
Was His Own Lawyer, and Threat
ened the Police.

In the Essex Market Court to-day
Justice Simms held an examination in
the case of Charles Krumm, proprietor
of the concert hall and saloon at LOT
Chrystie street. who was arrested Sum
day by Policemen Henry Foster and
Robert Henry. of the Eldridge street
station, on a charge Of violating the Ex-
else law.
Krumm was the principal witness
against edward Detective Jeremiah s.
Levy in his recent trial on the charge Of
bribery, and In which the jury disagreed.
When krumm was arraigned yester-
day he demanded an examination, and
1t was set down for this morning. He
claimed that the arrest was made for
spite. and that he was being annoyed by
the police because he was a witness be-
fore the Lexow Committee. He said
him from earning bread and butter for
his family.
Krumm said to-day that he expected
come to court and defend him. and whe
MIR Osborne didn't come, Krumm said
that he would act as his own lawyer.
Policemen Foster, and Henry were
statements already published, to the ef-
feet that they entered krumms place
shortly after 10 o'clock on Sunday
night. and that they found twenty peo-
pie in the saloon, seventeen men and
three women. They found. they say, a
glass of beer on the bar. which both
tasted.
krumm cross-examined the policemen
and wanted them to admit that they
doubted that II was beer. but the OFF,
GERS remained firm in their statements.
krumm then called his wife. "Bennie"
Weiss. and Charles Schwenke, alias
"Frenchy," as his witnesses. All three
testified that the stuff the policemen
tasted was weiss beer and not lager
beer.
Krumm in summing up the evidence
said that he expected to be discharged,
as the arrest was q put-up job. He held
that there was no evidence that would
entttle the Court to hold him.
THE police are prosecuting me, and
wish to protected from them" he
Justice simms replied that the evil
dence before him was sufficient TO hold
him for trial. He accordingly held him
In 800 bail to await the action OF the
Grand Jury. Saloon-Keeper Hanson. OF
Rivington street and the Bowery,
promptly went on his bail bond.
Krumm said he would prefer charges
against the policemen before the Police
Commissioners. He stated funrther that
he would have q startling story to tell
when he took the stand before the
Lexow Committee again.

CHARLES LAMBS WIT.

1t Is told OF Charles Lamb that one
afternoon, returning from q dinner
party. having taken seat In crowded
omnibus, stout gentleman subse-
quently looked in and politely asked:

II don't know how It may be with the
other passengers" answered Lamb. but
that last piece of oyster pie did the
business for me-"
The regular routine of clerkly busi-
ness ill-suited the literary habits OF our
essayist. Once in the India house one In
authority said to him:
II have remarked, Mr.. Lamb. that you
come very late In the morning"
Yes. SIR" relied the wit, but I 60
away early in the afternoon"
The oddness of the excuse silenced the
reprover. who turned away with smile.
A retired cheesemonger. who hated
any allusion to the business that had
enriched him. once remarked TO Charles
Lamb. in the course OF a discussion on
the Poor law:
You must bear In mind, sir, that ]

poets call the milk OF human kindness"
Lamb looked at him steadily and gave
his acQuiescence In these words:

, RYDE. Isle of Wight. Aug. 1.-THE
regatta Of the Royal Victoria Yacht
Club opened to-day with the race for the
Vice-Commodore' Cup. valued at $500.
Vigilant was entered, but, much to the
disappointment of all present, she did
not start.
The course was fifty miles long. In ad-
dition to Vigilant. Satanita and Britain
MIA were entered. A. d. Clarke. the
owner of Satanita, having determined,
contrary to expectation, to continue
racing, in spite OF the fact that he has
been blackballed by the Royal Yacht
Squadron. A stiff wind was blowing.
When Vigllant did not appear there
was a feeling OF general disappointment,
and many grumbling remarks were
heard. 1t was claimed that the owners
OF Vigilant had not given the Sailing
Committee Of the Royal Victoria Yacht
Club the slightest inkling OF their inten-
ton not to race for the Vice-Commo-
dore's Cup.
Gould was suffering from a slight ILL
ness. and to this was attributed the alb
sence of Vigilant from Ryde. The men,
peIS ol the hoyal victoria laCht CluD
seemed to think that Mr.. Gould was
holding Vigilant for to-morrow's match
with Britannia for the cup offered by
Lord Wolverton. fifteen miles to wind
ward and return.
Britannia and Satanita were sent away
to good start. 1t was a close reach
to the Cowes mark-boat, Satanita forg-
ing rapidly ahead.
At II A. NJ. the Sailing Committee OF
the Royal Victoria Yacht Club an
nounced that they had just received the
following telegram from Mr.. Gould:
Visilsnt 10 unable to start to-day. a. all her
standing rigging has been taken OF and has not
yet been stretched properly.
Satanita eventually won easily. Her
lead over Britannia never fell below two
minutes, and was Increased to four min.
utes at the finish.

able time OF over twelve miles on an
average per hour.

Port Louis, Mauritius.

From the sea Port Louis has a pictur.
esque and oriental aspect, but the streets
are less so than one imagines. They are
wide and resemble those of Cape Town.
Numerous European shops also line theil
fronts.
Lying behind the town is the Champ
de Mars. 1t is used as a place of amuse.
ment, and opening into it are the streets
Of Burbon and Corderie, while to the
left of the quays is the bazaar or market
place. It is surrounded by an iron rail.
ing, has several gates leading to the
principal streets and is divided into
two equal parts by Farquar street.
A broad avenue also traverses its en-
tire length, lined on either side by GOV.
cred sheds, where the wares are exposed.
Fruit stalls occupy the upper end, and
here is exhibited a marvellous variety,
q collection that would make the fruit
sellers of the west mad with envy.
Plantains in great yellow heaps are side
by side with custard apples, alligator
pears, mangoes, pineapples and Others
too numerous to mention. Mangoes are
the most esteemed by Europeans. The
lower market contains the butchers
shops, where fowl, fish and kid are
conspicuous.-All the Year Round.

AIgol, the Mystery of the Skies.

Algol, "the variable star of the con-
stellation of Parseus," is regarded
among astronomers as the greatest mys-
terry of the heavens. Its light usually
remains constant and uniform for a
period of from 4S to 60 hours 1t then
commences to gradually fade from view,
and in less than four hours diminishes
to an insignificant point of light After
remaining in state of semiobscuration
for period of time, varying from 15 to
80 minutes, it again regains its former
brilliancy. Astronomers believe that
some large dead and dark world revolves
between US and Algol, but this is the
disputed point, mystery which will,
in all probability, never be satisfactorily
explained. Louis Republic.

$1,000 A SHOT.
It Is Economical, After All, If Considered
Properly.

II Is Economical, After All, Ii Considered
Properly.
One thousand dollars shot is rather
expensive shooting, but when you come
to figure it out you will find that it is
not quite as much in proportion as 500
a shot under certain conditions. The old
smooth bore cannon, short in barrel and
short in the breach, had to be trained
with the greatest patience and care on
the object aimed at, and if the 100
pound ball didn't land exactly where it
was intended it did very little harm.
With the big pneumatic gun at Sandy
Eook it is impossible to make miss.
You just touch her off at 81, 900 per
touch, and if the projectile drops within
one-sixth Of a mile of where it was in
tended to drop there is immediate and
serious trouble and in all probability no
necessity for the expenditure of another
dollar on that particular target. 1t costs
more to fire the big Krupp gun than it
does our dynamite gun, but the execu-
tion bears no comparison. One hundred
gatling guns, fired at short intervals for
one hour, would cost $40, 900. Even if
the object shot at was within range the
shooting would not be one-tenth as ef-
fective as the shooting of the Sandy
Hook terror. New York Mail and Ex-

YELLOW CUR AND COYOTE.

an Amusing Fight.
There were three Of us in q wagon
driving from Springdale, on the rail-
road, to Hunters Hot Springs We had
forded the sloughs that during the sea-
son of high water in the Yellowstone
cut off the approaches to the bridge, the
water filling the wagon box and taking
the horses almost of their feet at times
in the swirl Of the current One Of the
dogs from the hotel Joined us on terra
firma-a mild faced yellow cur, with no
fighting qualities. He was trotting along
on the road a few rods ahead of the
horses when there came Looping across
the open country big coyote, making
straight for him.
Away went the dog, and after him
the wolf The dog made a stand and
took nip at the wolf. Then the wolf
ran, and the dog pursued. but as soon as
the dog had overtaken his enemy he
changed his mind about attacking him
and turned back. Now the wolf gained
courage and took up the chase, running
the yellow cur clear up to the porch Of
the hotel at the springs. The party in
the team got good deal of fun out Of
the novel turn about hunt
Mendenhall, the landlord, whipped
up the team, and we bounced along at a
tremendous pace, shouting, "Go 1t,
wolfp' and go it. dogp' The landlord
yelled encouragement to Stub, the dog,
but Stub had no mind for tussle with
the sharp toothed, long nosed brute and
was happy to gain the shelter Of the no.
tel. The coyote trotted off across the
hills. "What things a fellow will SET
when he hasn't his gun with himP' re-
marked one of the men in the wagon.

He Met His Match.

BE was all that's brave and manly.
he had emulated Stanley and had trav-
ersed wilds where white man ne'er
had set his foot before. He Just gloried
in battle, for he loved to hear the rat
tie of the bullets and the sounding Of
the cannon's deadly roar.
he would fight hundred people. He
would climb the highest steeple, though
he knew by that rash act he was court
ing certain death. Hewould face a rag
ing tiger, he would swim the turbid
Niger, and he'd walk up to a cannon's 8
mouth and never bate his breath.
There was nothing that could scare
him. He ventured in the harem Of the
widest, fiercest pasha that e'er lived ON
Turkeys coast. In graveyard he had
wandered late at night, and there had
pondered if it would be his fortune Just
to see real ghost.
He was brave beyond all question.
There had ne'er been suggestion that
the stories Of his boldness were not
made up Of the truth; but, alas, his
courage failed him when rotten molar
allied him, for he didn't have the nerve
to let a dentist pull his tooth New

Chosen Helpmates.
In the earliest times of purchase a
woman was bartered for useful goods or
for services rendered to her father. In
the latter way Jacob purchased Rachel
and her sister Leah. This was a Beena
marriage, where a man, as in Genesis,
leaves his father and his mother and
cleaves unto his wife, and they become
one flesh or kin-the woman's. The
price of bride in British Columbia and
Vancouver island varies. from $40 to
$40 worth of articles. In Oregon an In
dian gives for a wife horses, blankets
or buffalo robes; in California, shell
money or horses; in Africa, cattle.
A poor Damara will sell daughter
for one COW. A richer Kaffir expects
from 8 to 80. With the Banyai, If moth
ing be given, her family claim her chill
dren. In Uganda, where no marriage
recently existed, she may be obtained
for half dozen needles, or a coat, or q
pair Of shoes. An ordinary price is q
box Of percussion caps. In other parts
o goat or a couple of buckskins will buy
girl Passing to Asia, we find her
price is sometimes to so rubles, or at
others cartload of wood or hay. A
princess may be purchased for 5000
rubles.
In Tartary a woman can be obtained
for few pounds Of butter, or where a
rich man gives 20 small oxen a poor
man may succeed with a pig. In Fiji her
equivalent is whales tooth or a mus.
ket. These and similar prices elsewhere
are eloquent testimony to the little value

There is little encouragement for a
man to be burglar nowadays. When
he has an earnest aspiration to rise to
eminence in the profession, inventive
genius always does all it can to bother
him. For instance, the vaults of the

with wires laid between every two rows
of brick, SO that any attempt to inter
fere with the cement or the bricks will
disturb an electric circuit and sound a
