MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

A Russian bank with large capital is
to be opened in Pekin, China, while q
branch will bs established in Shang-
hal. /.
For over an hour yesterday wild
Texas steer that had escaped from. an
abattoir practically owned Fifth avenue
and east Forty-frst street in New
York.
Minister DENLY, at Pekin, China, is
putting forth efforts TO secure more
prompt and more equitable recognition
of rights of American and other foreign
travellers in China.
The police and citizens of Wakefield,
the annexed New York district, are at
present engaged in a lively alligator
hunt, while the children of the neigh
borhood are kept indoors under the
watchful guard of nervous mothers.
A seven foot alligator escaped from q
saloon Keepers back yard and is still at
large.
1t is stated that within few days
there will arrive in Washington com
missioners authorized to represent the
newly organized Cuban republic, and
take such steps as may be possible, in
an unofficial way, toward securing rec
ognition from the United States.
Judge Ritchie in Baltimore yester-
day decided that the purchaser of a
section or.berth ina Pullman sleeping
car had legal right TO transfer it to
whomsoever he pleased. Mr.. and Mrs.
Martin Curlander, of Baltimore, who
were accorded such courtesy by
travelling companions, and from whom
the conductor took away the section,
are entitled to damages.
The British steamship Fillmore,
Capt. Mcleod, which arrived at Phila
delphia Monday night from Babaco,
Cuba, brought into port some Cuban
refugees, and news of,the complete de-
struction Of the port of Yumuri, Cuba,
on the 18th instant, by the insurgent
forces. The entire place was burned
down. Hundreds of people were left
homeless and without any place to go.
Mrs. Leroy E. Bowen, wife of con
tractor of considerable wealth, has
brought suit against Minnie KuHman,
divorced wife of Lawyer Jacob Kurz
man, of New York city, for $4,000
damages for alternating the affections of
her husband. Mrs. Kurzman an
nounces that she will bring suit at once
against Mr.. Bowen for $4,000 for
breach ofpromise. Each woman tells
q amazing story, making Mr.. Bowen
out hypnotic expert, worthy to take
INK with Syengali.
A letter from Washington says ''It
is said that shortly after Mr.. Cleve-
lands return a determined effort will
be made to induce him to indicate by
some overt step his sympathy with the
democratic fight in Maryland, and the
programme is said to include the inevi-
table delegation of prominent citi-
zens,' who will wait upon him and re-
quest his help. Should such delega-
ton visit the President, the chances are
they will get but cold comfort. The
point-blank refusal of Secretary Car
isle and Postmaster General Wilson TO.
come to the party's aid is certainly suf-
ficient evidence of how President
Cleveland feels towards the party il
Maryland. 1t is the general belief that
Mr.. Cleveland would view with deep
est satisfaction the overwhelming de-
feat of Senator German"

Catarrh starts in the nasal passages, affect
ing eyes, ears and throat, and is in fact, the
great enemy of the mucus membrane. Neg
Iected colds in the head invariably precede
catarrh, causing an excessive flow of mucus,
and if the mucus discharge becomes inter-
.rupted the disagreeble results of catarrh viii
follow, such as bad breath, severe pain across
forehead and about the eyes, roaring and
buzzing sound in the ears and oftentimes- a
very offensive discharge. Ely's Cream Balm
is the acknowledged cure for these troubles.

The Rev Robert Watt, D. D.. of Scott
NJ q. Church. made another attack last
night on the police force Of Wilmington.
The sermon was about the same as others
that have been delivered on previous oc-
casions. He began by attacking the Police
Commission. That body, he said, was in
sincere 1t had fought the Law and Order
Society.
He said "Just think of three men
sworn In to do their duty not lifting their
fingers to give ministers OF the Gospel In
formation. The members profess to be
anxious to have perfect police force, yet
a police captain can stagger into the City
Hall and stagger out again, and one pa
trolman is discharged for being twenty
minutes late. II these things are allowed
In the City Hall, what can be expected
In the saloons and dives,
'It is claimed that a canvass had been
made OF the city for speak-easles and the
like, yet a man who wants to do his duty
cannot remain on the force. An ex-saloon-
keeper occupies the position as chief of
police and what can be expected of the
force?
The mayor OF the city ought to have
something to say about the appointments
of the police force. Down at Dover this
partisan force was made.
1.-THE Sunday law Is being violated right
along. Two weeks ago the Sunday law
was violated In sight of three patrolmen.
1t was violated to-day in sight OF the City
Hall seven times between / and o'clock.
II was at Sixth and Market streets. Within
a stones throw of the City Hall there Is
a licensed hotel that Is confirmed assig-
nation house.
"There was a law passed at Dover to
punish men who rented property to be
used as disorderly houses. 1t was kept in
the clerk Of the 6enate's desk and he
never enrolled 1t. These women have no
fear of punishment
I'm their report the police department

prove that there are many moro. Here
10 the proof" said Mr.. Watt. holding up
bottle. Resuming he said: "Some OF the
supposed respectable men in town had bet
ter be careful or they will get In trouble.
1.-THE W. G. t. U. is making great
mistake. Last week s95 was distributed
in prizes The money could have been
spent better In showing that the city is
not being run properly"
In closing Mr.. Watt said he would keep
on hammerlng until the city got a new
chief Of police. -

alarm those unaecusi omed to the true

of diseases of the heart and nerves
aye. that q sufferer from heart
disease is rarely cognlzant OF the
fact. or rather, while inwardly be.
lieyng that he may have heart trouble,
passes the momentary warning sensations
from his friends until 1t becomes chronic
and difficult to cure.
Palpltatlon OF the heart, is undoubtedly
OF nervous origin. and is one oil the
first symptoms OF an original attack, or
the development Of Inherited heart disease.
1t is caused by excese In eating, drinking
or working, by grief. anxiety or fear or
by any disease or sudden strain which i'm.
poses an extra amount Of work upon the
heart. or late the greater amount oil SUI.
fering has been among the bicycle riders,
many of whom have been 60 indtscreet
that they have transformed fine exer-

Palpitaton OF the heart usually comes
on suddenly, the symptoms presented
being oppression over the heart pain,
rapid and tumulluous breathing, di zznees
and faintness, frequently achofnpanIed by
o choking sensation. The disease need
have no terrors II proper treatment 10

SAN FRANCISCO, June 4-The steamer
Coptic arrived last night bringing the
following advices from Yokohama, June
7: Although no International oomplica-
tions are apprehended on Formosa's ac-
count the latest Corean developments are
justly regarded with grave anxiety. Count
Inony, the Japanese representative at
Seoul, has been recalled ostensibly to take
part in consultations as to the future pol
Icy of Japan, but really, 1t Is believed, to
discuss the question of abandoning en-
tirely the attempts to introduce social
and political reforms into the corrupt
monarchy.
Unless Count Inony is permitted to EN-.
plby forcible means, his chances Of gain
ing Rscendenoy are small From the be.
ginning Japan has declared her determi.
nation to act only as a friendly advisor to
Corea and any attempt to impose her au.
thority by violence would be inconsistent
with her professions and her true purpose.
She hoped that the feeble country could
be made capable of self government on
civilized principles. She now finds that
1t wishes for nothing but to be left to its
old misrule and the outlook is full Of diff
flculties. If the japanese government
gives up its task 1t leaves Corea at the
mercy of Russia.

Lively Struggle Between Friends and op.

LOUISVILLE, June 2i.-Generais Hardin

gubernatorial nomination at the Demo.
cratic state convention tomorrow. and all
the other candidates who have been here
some days were joinod yesterday by many
Of the delegates, among the latter being
Senator Joa Blackburn who 10 working
for the craftsmanship Of the committee ou
resolutions. Congressman MoCreary as
pires to the same craftsmanship.
The all absorbing topic is the resolution
on the silver question, The committee on
resolutions will consist OF one member
from each OF the eleven congressional dis
tricts and two members. at-large appointed
by the chairman of the convention. Fol-
this reason there Is more contest than ever
for the temporary organization. Con
gressmen w j. Stone and Albert s. Berry
are most prominently mentioned for chair
man. but neither the Clay nor the Hardin
men will name their favorites for chair
man.
although Clay Is called the gold candi
date and Hardin the silver candidate, yet
those. lines are not strictly drawn on
them. as are the lines of those for and
against the administration. Mr.. Van
zenden, Carlisle's private secretary. and
Scott Nesbitt. the new appointment clerk,
are here and they were followed from
Washington by Congressman Phil B.
Thompson, who is enthusiastic for Ssna.
tor Blackburn as chairman Of the com.
mittee on resolutions.
Aside from the silver issue there is q
bitter fight between the friends OF Secre-
tary Carlisle and Senator Blackburn, in
which Senators Lindsay, Buckner, Nc
! Creary and other leaders are with Black
