The steamer Rustler departed for Chilkat
on Friday evening, taking number of
Chilkat Indians, and also lumber and pro-
visions for their great potiatch. Among
the articles were over 200 blankets, the
monument to the dead chief, Shotridge.
and the remains OF lately deceased Chill
kat sub-chief, who had been laid out in
state at one of the houses in Takou village
for six days. 1t is needless to say he smelt

SOME CURIOUS FACTS.

An English steamship which was in the
port of Philadelphia recently has negro
captain.
Mr.. Jesse Tyson, jr.. of Baltimore. a
rich, handsome. intellectual young club
man, who Is fond of the military, an
nounces his intention to enlist as a COM
mon trooper in the United States cavalry
service.
Bishop Korum. of Treves, is about to
publish a record of the miracles performed
by the holy coat at the time of its last I'M
yelling, in 1891. Eleven miracles and
twenty-seven cusss are claimed. and we'll
attested evidence will be given in support.
Delaware has an old law requiring a
bridegroom TO give the state an indemnity
bond, but it never causes any serious
trouble. and if the penalty was ever en-
forced it must have been long while ago.
The man going on the bridegroom's bond
engages that the children that may come
of the prospective union shall not become
a charge upon the state.
II Is curious fact that many women
who become distinguished in literature
under a non de plume have done so under
names that were either masculine or had
no sex suggestion. Nobody could tell
whether or not Currer Bell was a man or
woman. In fact, there is reason to believe
that Charlotte Bronte on the title page
would have handicapped Jane Eyre"
George Sand, too. won an audience that
would have been impossible TO Aurore
Dudeyant, as did George Eliot one that
would have whistled ''Maryanne Evans"
quite down the wind. Coming nearer
our own private life, there is John
Strange Winter-who is. in private
life, Mrs. Stanard-and John Oliver Hob
hes, the sensation OF at least London
week, who is really Mrs. Perry Cragie.
Then. in our own country, we have Oc-
tave Thanet, known TO her friends as Miss
Alice French and Charles Egbert Grad
dock, whom all the world has heard of,
though only half of 1t would recognize her
as Miss Muriree.

in the Eeighborhood OF Tacoma. her hus-
band was one of tia first 20 take hold OF
the matter. simultaneously the question
Of the march 10 Washington Slty was
sgitated all along the Pacific coast, ana
when Mr.. Cantwell undertook 10 organize
the iaboring men Of Washington INTO an
organization. his wife lent ali the assist
ance in her power.
The movement was started in March,
and with the large number OF unemployed
men then walking the streets OF the city,
!t looked a. though several thousand men
would join the movement Mrs. tant"eA
was equal to the emergency, and 10 snow
that she thoroughly ehampioned the cause
OF the men, she herself began TO recruit
men, When the time for starting arrived
she made overtures 70 the offcials OF the
Canadian Pacific railroad offering them
$1,000 II they would carry an army OF
1900 men on to the capital city. ms was
an inviting sum, but the railroad men were
afraid OF the consequences and they de-
clined - accept il.
Nothing daunted by the failure the men
started on the march, taking free rides on
trains as far as was possible. Mrs Can't
well accompanied the army and her nus
band as far as Minneapolis, and there she
left him. He continued his onward
march, while his wife remained In the
city 10 recruit another army TO march Tor
started toward the city as their leader.
The men were not ashamed to be under
her control as it was not case OF petit
coat tyranny. Along the line OF march
she treated the men well, and at towns
where they could lay over for the night
she would secure dwelling for their ac-
commodation. In larger cities she would
temporarily rent unoccupied houses, and
then rent all the secondhand furniture TO
be had. so that the men under her would
have bed upon which to lie.
The army reached Pittsourg last week
and IS now coming toward this city. AT
the Smoky City Mrs. Cantweil left the or
ganization in charge of trusty lieutenant
and then started for Washington City
ahead of time to arrange for the reception
of the men when they reach here. She is
expected to arrive at the camp today or
tomorrow afternoon, when council OF
war will be held with her husband, Frye
and Kelley.
The men Of the army are anxious 10 see
her. and admire her for her bravery and
self-devotion to their cause. All the time
her husband was in camp he was in daily
communication with her. and all her re-
ports showed very satisfactory state of
affairs.

destination Of the Cabinet.

The members If Nj. Stambolof9S Cabinet
have rendered their resignation to Prince
Ferdinand. M. Stambolotf has been at the
head of affairs i'll Bulgaria since he formed Il
provisional Government at Tiroya in 1886,
after the kidnapping Of Prince Alexander, to
whom he remained loyal and in whose
name he issued a stirring manifesto to tho
Bulgarian people.
Our Vienna Correspondent says that if Nj.
Stambolof' retil emcnt had occurred three
years ago it would have been an event of
some European importance, but at present it
is to be regarded as chiefly of Bulgarian do
nestle concern. Austria and Russia are both
firmly resolved not to allow the affairs of
either Servia or Bulgaria to disturb the har-
mony now existing between them. Our Cor
respondent adds that for a long time xpast
there had been considerable friction between
Nj. Stamboloff and Prince Ferdinand. NJ.
Stamboloff, who was always OF a rather ar
bitrary disposition, had become quite despo-
tic. even in his dealings with the Prince.
His dictatorial methods some time ago
brought about the resignation of the Finance
Minister NJ. Natchovitch. The more recent
resi- nation of the Minister of War made a
very bad impression in the Army, and it
would appear that Nj. Stambolof had MANY
officers of rank against him.
NJ. Grekoff having declined the task of
forming a ministry, the Prince has requested
NJ. Stoilof, a former Ministes Of Justice, to
, 1894-07-04

undertake the task, but his acceptance of it is
uncertain.
The crisis gave rise to a serious distur-
bance at Sofia Cd Wednesday afternoon.
The supporters of the retiring Cabinet as
sembIed in the Cathedral square for the pur-
pose Of expressing confidence in NJ. Stambo-
loft and had a sharp conflict with the Oppo-
sition party. y few revolver shots were
fired, and one person was wounded. The
Opposition party eventually took to flight. At
night all the approaches to the Palace as we'll
as the streets leading to NJ. Stamboloff's
house were occupied by troops. The streets
Of the city were in a state Of great commo-
ton, and we've repeatedly cleared by the
mounted gendarmeIy. The opponents of
NJ. Stamboloff consist largely Of students and
Socialists.
1t is authoritively stated that NJ. Stambo-
lofts relations with the Prince are still ex-
ceIlent.-IImes.

TRIAL OF SWINDLERS IN ROME.

Rome, June 5.-The Correctional Tribunal
in this city has been engaged for the last few
days upon the trial Of four SwindIers who
were arrested some months ago, among them
being a woman calling herself the Countess
Of Saint Arnaud, and imam who went by the
name Of Duke Of Bustelli The prisoners
were charged with having obtained 20, 00Ot.
from two Frrnchmen, one Of whom was Il
priest, for the purpose Of liheratins Leo
XIII. from the dungeons Of the Vatican,
where they represented to their credulous
victims he was confined, while the Papal See
was occupied by an i~mpostor placed there by
the enemies Of the real Pontiff. The Tribunal
found all the prisoners guilty, ami they We .
condemned to various sentences Of impri>On-
menr, varying from fifteen to eight months.

THE MUD ON THE MANGO TREES.

1t has been reserved for a ! COR Brhar
peasant to eXpound the mystery Of the mark
my Of the mang0-trees. Feeling fevelish
and S~IccpleSs one night, he tlloc9ht he would
cool himself by making the round Of his
crop-titlds. To his surprise he pc. ceiyed
figures stealthily moving about II the dark
ness, and apparently dong something to his
fruit grove. Taking them for deptcd1lors,
he beat one oil them over the head with his
staff and fled back into his cottage. Next
morning the villagers discovered that tho
DcShs. or deiIics, had visited the hamlet dur-
ing the night, and put their mystic mark ON
the mango-trees 1t was also rumourrQ that
the local holy MAJ had met with an accident
and was laid up with a broken head. The
cultivator kept his own counsel. But before
the day closed he found a quarrel fastened on
him by friend of the holy mans and that
his cattle were being driven off to the pound.
The iuscias Act@on in all lands pays dearly
for coming upon tile private moments Of a
divinity.
The three stages through which the mystic
ny has pa sed are characteristic Of tho India
Of our times. There can now be little doubt
that the tree-slnearing commenced as an act
Of Precipitation or Of publication after the re
cent mango blight. When it had attracted u
certain amount Of attention, the v%otaries OK
clearinghouse keepers of a temple beyond the
Ncpal frontier took advantage Of it, says a.
leading native journal, as ian in4cuiou-
dcvice for advertising the reSuscitation OF
their Old place of pilgrimage" The wide
spread discomfort and unrest among the
educated classes caused by the Cpiuln
Commission and the sacrifice of Indian tnan-
cial interests 10 the Manchester vote, led to-
apoliticel significance being assigned to at.
thus a rustic propioiatoly ME, after being
utilized as a field advertisement more cffe9-
tive than the hoardings along the Thames
Valley from Paddington to Oxford, attained
to the dignity Of a political portent. Having
passed through the three phases of Indian
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. religious, and po-
litical-the well-woIn wonder had an appro-

BRAVE LITTLE GIRL.

The medal of the French Legion of Honour
has been presented to a little girl, ten years
old, named Jenny Carey, residing with her
parents at Muckford. Indiana, for saving a
train on the Panhandle Railway, which was
laden with passengers bound for he Worlds
Fair at Chicago last summer, While walk

the trestle bridge across a deep rayine
was on fire and utterly impossible. She
thereupon took off her led flannel p~etticoat
and ran down the track to meet the Worlds
Fair express, which she knew to be nearly
due. AS soou as it came III sight she waved
her p%etticoat as a danger signal, inducing the

The French military officials are all in ex-

of science. who discovered tie explosive

Of victory which will destroy whole diyi-
SONS. and disguised with the want If attrn-
ton to his reports, has sold it to a foreign
Power, flying at the anne time to Brussels to
avoid an accusation Of treason. The inven.
ton is either a gigantic mitr@lleuse worked
by electricity. and scattering bullets over
miles square, or an asphyxiatin8 Shell which
can Stay whole regiments at once. 1t seems
to be clear, from Il debate or Thursday, that
the Minister Of War, General ~Mercier. did
refuse to have anything to do with NJ. lurpIn,
as a man quite u~ntrdstwolthy but beyond
that everything is obscure. 1t is probable
that NJ. Turpin, who has an original mind,
has invented something formidable that he
wants to make money in heaps and that he
has in this way put himself, as it were,
up to auction. No mitrailleUse whatever

Gatlings and Maxims are possible, but in
10 case can a secret be confined to one army
alone.
The Ameer Of Afghanistan, according to
the DeJat$, has issued a rather remarkable
address to his people. He wishes, he says,
to pay a visit to London, so that he may
speak for all Afghans with the great Of the
earth and their Niziers but he must first be
certain that Afghanistan, will continue to
enjoy the blessings Of peace and order. lie
Shall confer with the representatives OF other
peoples, friends, half-friends, or enemies,
and shall thus stuly the dispositions of other
nations, but ho must have the permission
Of the Afghan people, and assurances IN
writing from every village and every regi-
ment. 1t is quite possible that such an
address has been issued, for Abdurrahman
Khan has once or twice addressed his whole
people, and may be sincerely anxious to
know what they would think of an unlrece-
denied adventure. One would greatly like
to see some Of the replies. ASiaticS thus
addressed generally speak freely enough, and
it is by no means certain that ally AfghanlNtan
will approve the visit. The Ameer has
already unholy machines in his palace, and
teaches his soldiers European drill suppose
the inidels should conquer his mind alto
gether? 1t is known, however, In Cabul
that the Shah saw London and returned un-
harmed, and that may be a consolation even
to Moollahs, who are not quite sure that
England is not full OF Afritz. We can only
hope that on his arrival the Ameer will be
treated as an honoured guest. for he is as SEN
sitive as woman to amy slight, and suspicious
beyond measure.
