Mrs. Lease in Mexicn.


Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Lease, one OF
the opponents of the free and unlimit-
ed coinage of silver at 16 to 1 without
an international agreement, spoke in
Mexico Friday afternoon and Friday
night at 10 and 20 cents a head. One
OF Mexico's prominent business men,
though a Populist, brought her here
and agreed to pay her $25 and expen-
SEES. She cost the gentleman s25 in
cash, s35 for hall rent and s27 other
expenses, making a total of Ss7. Her
receipts were: in the afternoon s35 90.
at night S51. "a, making a total of ss7. So.
There we're q few other expenses
which brought the parties behind her
out in debt to the amount Of about SO.

she was the guest of Mr.. /. j. Sims

Facts About Shoes.

The Portuguese shoe has a wooden
sole and heel, with a vamp made OF
patent leather, f~ancifully showing the
flesh side of the skin. The Persian
footgear is a raised shoe and is often
a foot high. 1t is made of light wood
richly inlaid, with a strap extending
over the instep. The Muscovite shoe
is hand-woven on a wooden frame,
and but little attention is paid to the
shape of the foot Leather is some
times used, but the sandal is generally
made of silk cordage and wooden
cloth. The Siam shoe has the form of
an ancient canoe, with a gondola bow
and on open toe. The sole is made of
wood, and the upper of inlaid wood
and cloth, and the exterior is elabor-
ately ornamented in colors with gold
silver. The sandal worn by the Egyp-
tians is composed of a sole made BY
together three thicknesses of
leather. This is held to the foot by
passing a band across the instep. The
sandal is BEAUTIFULLY stitched with
threads of different cOlors.

He Came Not.
A VANDALIA GROOM DESERTS
HIS BRIDE AT THE ALTAR.
The Guests Were ALI Assembled And
Waiting But the Gentleman Did
Not Show Up.

The progressive little city of Van
dalia is in a state of excitement over
an episode which occurred on last
Wednesday evening. The wedding of
Miss Alice Hesser, the young and
pretty daughter of ]. T. N. Hesser, of
Vandalia, and Mr.. Elmer A~ckridge, a
well known young man who lives
about four miles east of Vandalia, was
to take place at the Methodist church
at eight O'Clock Wednesday evening.
At the time appointed the guests were
assembled at the church and the bride
was ready and waiting for her be-
trothed, who had not yet returned
from Mexico, where he had gone to
purchase the necessary license, but no
groom came. The hands of the clock
got around to fifteen minutes, then
half past eight, and still the tardy low
er did not make his appearance. At
ter waiting quite awhile, the company
at the church slowly dwindled away.
Meanwhile the bride had tainted two
or three times and was being attended
by two physicians, her condition being
serious. The family of the girl stands
high in Vandalia social circles and the
people of the town are indignant over
the affair. 1t is supposed that the
young man has gone to Oklahoma, al
though the exact locality of his where
abouts is not known. The father of
young lady declares that it will
not be well for the fellow to come
back to Vanda1ia and the general
opinion is that if young Ackridge |
to live in any kind of peace he
mad best stay in some secluded spot.
1t is a peculiar coincidence that a
of the bride was treated in the
same way more than once, which led
her going insane and killing herself,
tome ten years ago. At latest reports
he young man had not been heard
No cause is given for his sud-
disappearance.

tAZHEe =
HANNIBAL, NO., SeptR7.-Hon. o.
S. Hall and Hon. W. Hatch dis
cussed the money questip tonight at
Scyoc Hall, under the a1pices of the
Hannibal Sound Moneyplub. The
hall was crowded to its most capac-
ity, and the audience wasbout equal
~ divided. Col. Ha~tch1pened, and
devoted half of his timen proving,
by the Congressional R&prd,n that
Hall had been in favor of Ne free and
unlimited coinage of silvef3t the ra-
ito of 16 to 1 prior to six rppnths ago,
and had voted with the freesilverites
on every question in Congress-. He
claimed that the Pertle Sprays Con-
vention was as regular as1ither the
Kansas City or st. Joseph Conven-
tions. He said that he didnot care
anything about the price of saver bull
lion as long rs the Governmestplaced
its stamp on the dollar. He Attempted
to show that the price of what and
silver declined in the rame rata after
the commission of the crime d1S73.'
Hall made a mastery effort, fating
that he was here simply to sason
about cold facts. He says that he
staid with the silver men as hng as
they were consistent, and the true
friends of the white metal. He shaved
that the commercial ratio between
gold and silver was 81 to 1, andhat
the adoption of the 16 to 1 ratio would
be ruinous if adopted independently
of other great nations. He said that
Hatch had given no reason to proye
that a is to / ratio could be maintained.
He said that the Bland idea was The
Populist idea, and quoted jefferson,
Benton and other great men to show
that the ratio was one of commerce.
He said that he stood squarely on the
platform of 1892. He showed that
wages were higher In the gold coun-
tries than in the silver countries, and
that the money of lesser value would
drive the gold out of the country, and
contract the currency. He believed in
the right of the debtor to pay in the
same value of currency as when the
debt was contracted. Col. Hatch
closed the debate in q fifteen minute
speech,

TO T THE FIGHT.
Texas Governor Calls a Meeting of
the Legislature.

AUSTIN, TEX, Sept. Ex-Governor
C~ulberson last night issued a proela-
nation calling a special session of the
legislature for October, that will be
required to pass a law that will knock
the Corbett-F itzsimmons prize fight
into a cooked hat. The Governor is
sued the proclamation at midnight
after q lengthy consultation with his
cabinet.
There is talk this morning that Pop
ulist and other political opponents of
the Governor may defeat the object
by making the law to go into effect in
ninety days. 1t requires a two-thirds
vote to give immediate effect. Rep
resentatiye Ham Ward, a leading
member of the House, this morning
said that the legislature undoubtedly
would pass a law to go into effect at
once and it would make prize fights a
felony. He thinks that the law will
be passed within a week after the leg
islature meets.

Hurt Near An
NADIA, Mo.

CLARKsvILLE, Mo-, Sept. 27.-At
2:15 p. m. to-day the north bound
passenger on the st. Louis, Keokuk
and Northwestern Railroad struck a
mule at the switch at Armada, eight
miles south of this place. The engine,
tender and all the cars were derailed
and badly wrecked, the baggage car
being thrown squarely across the
track. Conductor Moulton was rather
severely cut about the head. The
fireman, Frank Hafner, jumped and
escaped unhurt, but the engineer, ].
P. Murphy, stuck to his post most
valiantly, and to his faithfulness no
doubt many owe their lives. Among
the injured was F. P. Turner, of
Louisiana, Mo-, travelling for Hixson
Shoe Company, Hannibal; injured in
ternaliy; quite seriously. Frank
Turner is a brother of Harry Turner,
of Mexico, Mo.
A relief train, bearing physicians
and volunteers from GAINESVILLE and
Louisiana, went to the scene at 4 p.
m. A later special took on all the
passengers, the wounded being made
as comfortable as possible in the mail
car, and proceeded north. W. E.
Cunningham, general superintendent
of the road, was in the wreck, and
was bruised up somewhat, but vas
most active and efficient in extending
relief and restoring order, and bey-
ond his torn clothes gave no sign of
his own hurts. The accident occur
red Immediately at the station, and
trains ran without interruption, using
house track.

CINE, baggage car, smoking car, two
day coaches, sleeping car and dining
car. The two latter cars we're over
turned, the other cars left partly up |
Only one person, James Will
son, of Rockport, ILL.,, aged about so, |
was badly injured. He had a bad cut
his head, and is probably internally
injured. Three or four others were
slightly cut, but no bones were brok-
en-. A relief train was sent from
with physicians, who at
tended to the injured, and a special
train was sent down from Hannibal
and took all the passengers on to their
respective destinations by special SER
vice. W. E. Cunningham, superin-
tendent of the st. Louis, Keokuk and
Northwestern, was on the train when
the accident happened. This is the
first accident that has happened on
the Missouri lines of the Burling-
Route, by which any passengers

and no passenger has ever been kill

owned by Burlington road. There

CHICAGO, September 27.-General
John G. Black, United States District
Attorney, received instructions to-
day to investigate the alleged combi-

from Attorney General Harmon, who
inclosed a statement of the suipscions
