CREsToN CLARKE.

MT. Creston Clarke is the favorite nephew of the great Edwin Booth and is the only successor of the great Booth family of actors.
 Mir. Clarke was born in Philadel- phia, August 20. 1S65. He was reared in Paris at the college of Notre Dame de St. Croix, where he first studied for the church but abandoned his original intention and decided to go upon the stage. He made his first appearance in England with Edwin Booth in 1882, in "Richelieu" afterwards playing 8 round of parts in Mr. Booths repertory dusing that visit. He was engaged at the Haymarket Theater, London, and played n part in the original English production of fFedora" under the BancrOfts. He next went to the stand with Jennie Lee. He then appeared with the late Lytton Seothern in Our American Cousin. At the close of that engagement he again joined his father, this time as leading man, in "The Heir at Law, :" "She stoops to Conquer" and in various other roles. In 1886 he re- turned to his native land for the first time since his babyhood and played a stock season under management of Lester Wallack. In 1887 he opened as "Hamlet" in Richmond, Va., and subsequently played the role in Baltimore and fortnight in Phila- delphia. He was next engaged by Lawrence Barrett to support Edwin Booth in "Hamlet" as Laertes, and in "Othello" as Tago. Then followed an engagement with Augustin Daly's company. His engagement of twelve consecutive weeks in Phila- delphia, and his recent return ap- pearance at the same theater for sixteen weeks broke all previous Shakespearean records in America. Miss Adelaide Prince will support Mir. Clarke this season in opposite star roles.

AGAINST CONVICT LABOR.
Missouri Unions Will Work to Secure
 the Abolition of the System.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Nov. 23.-Labor organizations allover the state will take active measures during the next year to secure legislation against peniten- tiary contract labor. The first step has been taken by the Central Labor coun- cil of this city, composed of all the diff ferent labor organizations Candidates for the legislature who will not pledge themselves to vote for a measure pre- venting penitentiary competition will not be supported by any of the labor organizations, it is claimed.
 The movement was inaugurated by the Saddle and Harnessmakers unions, upon which the competition of peniten- tiary made goods falls most heavily. Out of the 1900 convicts in the Missouri penitentiary, 925 are engaged in the manufacture of harness and saddles and boots and shoes, and the rapid in- crease in the sales of goods made by contract labor has caused apprehension on the part of free skilled laborers. One of the largest harness and saddle manufactures in the state, that of the Wyeth Manufacturing company in this city, went out of business few months ago, and it is said that one of the causes was the strong competition Of the penitentiary manufactory.

LETHARG[C ABDUL HAMID No Promised Reforms Accomplished. The Wild Threats Of American
 Arme enianS. They Are Recruiting an Army to Send 10 the Mother
 Country.

LONDON, Nov. 23.-~-The sudden fit of energy which convulsed the sultan of Turkey into doing something to- wards suppressing anarchy in Asia Minor seems to have spent its force, and Abdul Hamid is said to have re- lapsed into his usual lethargic state.
 Reports of fresh massacres have reached here from many points of the disturbed empire and, in brief, the east ern question does not appear to be as near a solution as it was during the early part of the week. There has been little change in the nature of the problem before the powers, however Their mutual suspicious are acting as drags upon them and delay decided action upon their part, though the be- lief still prevails that nothing short of drastic measures will bring the sultan to terms for any length of time.
 This step, however, will not be adopted until all hope of loyal en- .forcement of the reforms which Abdul Hamid solemnly promised to adop' have vanished.

AN OLD MANS WHIM.
The Strange Request of an Aged
 Man.

BLACK RIVER FALLS, Mich, Nov. 23.-As means of identification when they meet in the Great Beyond, Father Louis Dariom, now 107 years old, re- quested today that Q lock of hair be taken from his venerable head and placed in the left hand of his compan- ion for eighty years in wedlock. who has preceded him into the valley of death at the advanced age of 101 years. He also requested that when he passed away, which, considering his feeble condition and great age, is likely to oc- cur at any moment, lock of hair taken from the head of his wife be placed in his right hand. To the minds of many his request will seem simple, but to this aged man it is deep-seated faith, born of strong though somewhat supersti- tious belief. Louis Dariom was born near Montreal one year before the in auguration of President Washington, and has lived in this vicinity for half a century. When he was 100 years old he could dance like professional, and was regarded as one of the most re- men of the day.

CHICAGO, Nov 23.-Francis Schlat- ter, who disappeared from Denver last week, has written that he will be in Chicago November 30. W. J.

year. During the latter part Of his stay Schlatter told his friends of his strange dreams, when beautiful images appeared before his eyes.
 Schlatter, when he came to James port, had some money. His hobby for a long time was silver mines and the west, where he said he intended to make his future home. At the Ryan homestead they spoke well of the heal CT. He was great student. Every night until late hour the light in his room was burning and Schlatter sat there studying something. Schlatter boarded for year with Mrs. s. Bart lett. Mrs Bartlett says he was an ex- cellent boarder. Her son, Dennis, says he seldom if ever went out of the house of an evening. He noticed nothing strange about Schlatter, he said.
 Schlatter invested his money in speculating in western silver mining company. He went away from James, port in 1893, to take charge of his min ing stock and to make his fortune, as he said These hopes were blasted when Schlatter reached New Mexico and the Jamesport people believe that it was this great disappointment that affected his mind and made him the figure he is today.

4 SUICIDE AT CONGRESS. George Walker "CloseS
 the Deal. A Bullet Wound in the
 Temple. The Tragic Last Act in the Llfe'S Drama Of a Saloon
 keeper.

George Walker, well-knoWn resi- dent of Congress camp, committed suicide at that place Friday night.
 Walker was quiet, sober sort of individual and very popular among his acquaintances. He had been resi- dent in Congress about five months and till lately owned a half interest in one of the most thriving saloons of the camp. Though ordinarily abstemious and prudent, about week ago he started on drunken spree that ended only with his death. His saloon inter est was lost in a gambling game and he finally gambled away everything he owned.
 Friday he made threats of suicide and, about 10 p. m., in front of Bar tons saloon announced that then and there he would 'close the deal' for himself, displaying as he said it, 38-caliber Smith & Wesson revolver. Several friends argued with him over his foolishness and the party entered the saloon. Here his friends tried to get him to give up the revolver.
 HAn right" said he finally, "here it is,' pulling it from his pocket as he spoke.
 But instead of handing it to his friend who stood before him with out stretched hand, Walker quickly placed the revolver to his temple and pulled the trigger. The bullet crashed through the brain making an awful wound.
 He fingered for ten hours, however, not expiring till about daylight next morning. The funeral will be today
 Walker was native of Denmark, about 3S years of age. He had been for years a resident Of Arizona, for the greater portion of the time at Tombstone. Before going to Congress he lived for several months in Phoenix, being here in the employ of Dan Can non in the fruit store next the Moni- non block

THE HEALER'S OLD HOME.
Friends of the Messiah Say He Is
 Queer in His Head.

JAMESPORT, l.. l., Nov 23.-Fran- cis Schlatter, the healer, is well known in Jamesport. The residents here now talk of little else save their ttownsman. They say he is rather a good fellow, but a little queer, and seem amused at the stories of the shoemaker's cures. The village is much excited over the healer.
 At Jamesport some interesting facts were learned by reporter, who visited the village this morning. Whatever may be true of the cures of the healer in the west, his prescriptions do not work on his Jamesport friends, who have communicated with Schlatter in Denver The reporter interviewed a number of people and on the promise of their names being withheld was told how they had received handkerchiefs and other articles from Cchlatter, with directions how to become new in health and body. The good folks tried his cures with all the faith imaginable but their ailments did not disappear. Some of Schlatters friends here say he is "off," while many residents say he never was quite right in his head. He never showed any particular preference as regards religious faith. He was brought up a Catholic, so he told his friends. He had been known to walk to the Catholic church at Riverhead, a distance of six miles. He occasionally went to the village churches, Congre- gatiOnal and Methodist, but Schlatter was not a regular church-goer.
 He went to Jamesport in 1890 with noriy, and Schlatter had been employed as fireman on fishing steamer. Schlat- ter boarded with the Ryan family. He went fishing flor two seasons. Then he tired of work and settled himself at his trade. He hired half of his house of Aunt Sally Corwins and began making shoes. He was well up in his trade and acted as finisher, of fine handmade shoes, the parts of which were sent him from New York. Everybody agrees that Schlatter was the finest shoemaker they ever saw and he made good wages. Schlatter, while at Jamesport, is de- scribed as a tall, robust fellow, of dark complexion
 He did not wear whiskers, but had a becoming black mustache. He was ap- parently between 35 and 40 years of age. He came to Long Islard from New York city and little of his family record is known. Daniel A. Young justice of the peace, at South James port, says Schlatter was always a trifle insane, but always firm in his convic- tions. MT. Young says Schlatter was always a great Republican until 1892 when he suddenly changed and became a Socialist. He believed that the 1 Socialist-Labor party would win that

MOTHER OBJECTED.
But at Last Relented and Two Hearts
 Were Made One.

A young Mexican couple yesterday applied to Cupid Pearce for a marriage license. Cupid looked at the girl and his infallible eye sized her up as not being of legal age. He 'told the pros pective groom so, who appeared to be but a boy himself. No, senor," re- sponded the youthful, she is IS years old" The couple gave their names as Ramon Orosco and Maria Quintanar and were determined in their efforts to get license T am not going to get into any scrape," soliloquized Cupid, so he told the pretty girl to run home after her mas consent. The mother objected strongly to the mar riage, so the fearful girl went back to Cupid with her tale of woe. That settles it." said Cupid, t'you can't get a license" The prospective groom kicked hard; he swore the girl was of age and could marry. It was no use. Cupid would not give the license, so the unhappy couple left the court house.
 They returned in a couple of hours with radiant faces and presented note. The combined persuasion of the young couple had caused mater familias to relent and her consent was given. Cupid gave the license and last night the two were made one by the reverend father of the Catholic church.
