His Speciality.

Perhaps to be admired for mistaken vir-
tues is harder to bear with patience than
not to be admired at all. There is a story
of an artist whose clouds were very highly
approved by the public until they learned
that the strokes were intended to represent
a cascade.
Another instance of mistaken apprecia-
ton is told of the painter Constable. He
was one day leaving the Royal academy,
where he had been busy with his colleagues
of the hanging committed in arranging
the pictures for the exhibition, and at the
door he met Sam, the porter, who had
been helping with the mechanical part Of
the work.
They had just been moving into place
one of Constable's own landscapes, painted
in his characteristic manner and full of
the spots of light which he was accustomed
to introduce into his pictures.
''WelL, Mr.. Constable, SIR" said Sam,
''that's picture of yours, sir Wonder
full, STRIP
'sGIad you approve of it, Sam said the
artist, feeling in his pocket for shilling

Shameless Conduct of a Kentucky Audi

Shameless Conduct of a Kentucky Audi
ence Toward MI. Bradley.
EMINENCE, KY, Aug. 31.-The sixth
joint debate in the series of twelve,
which was to have taken place be-
tween Colonel w. o. Bradley and GEN
eral P. W. Hardin, at Eminence, yes
terday, was called off on account of
the noisy demonstration of the crowd.
Colonel Bradley was to have opened
and closed the debate. When he at
tempted to be- in the noise and dis
turbance of the crowd was so great
that he was compelled to sit down.
W. P. Thorne, the Democratic chair
man, arose and appealed to them for
order, but the crowd paid no attention
to him. Colonel Bradley attempted
again and again to speak, six times in
all, but failed to get hearing. See
ing that any attempt to speak was in
vain, he gave it up, saying that the
noise was more than he could stand,
and refusing most positively to proceed
farther.
The colonel said: ST wish I had my
voice minute, so could tell this
crowd what utter contempt I hold
them in" Then folding up his manu-
script he left the stand. The action of
the audience is condemned by the
chairman of the Democratic committee
as well as the Republicans, who were
present, and they declare it is an out
rage and disgrace to Henry county.

Improvements in the Markets
Continue This Week.
A More Hopeful Prospect Re-

ANXIETY HAS CEASED.
Confidence is Again Taking
Hold of Investors.
HAS CEASED.

NEW YORK., Aug. 31.-R. 6. Dun &
Co. $ weekly review of trade says:
Improvements in markets and prices
continues, and whereas few months
ago everybody was nursing the faint
est hopes of recovery it has now come
to be the only question in which
branches, if any, the rise in prices and
the increase of business may go too
far. A strong conservative feeling is
finding expression, not as yet control
ling the markets or industries, but
warning against too rapid expansion
and rise.
In some directions the advance in
prices clearly checks future business.
But encouraging features have great
power. Exports of gold continue, but
are met by syndicate deposits and ex-
pected to cease soon. Anxieties about
the monetary future no longer hinder9
Crop prospects, except for cotton, have
somewhat improved during the week.
Important steps toward reorganiza-
ton of great railroads gives hope to
investors. Labor troubles are for the
present less threatening and some of
Importance have already been settled.
The Industries are not only doing bet
ter than anybody expected, but are
counting on a great business for the
rest of the year. The advance in
prices of iron and it's products has
added about So a ton more in a single
week to the prices of Bessemer iron at
Plttsburg and yet the great steel COM
panies are buying wherever they can,
while the air is full of reports that this
or that finished product will still
further advance.
Lead is still So. 521<, though the pro-
duction in the first half of 1895 was
105, go tons, with increasing stocks
from 3,158 tons in January to SSH
tons in July. Coke is demoraized

which 10000, 900 were foreign, against

1850, 200 were foreign.
The prospect for wheat has hardly
improved this week, although the

Corn is coming forward more freely,
and the Septemb Der prices have declined
a quarter of a cent with the promise of
a great crop; pork and lard are shade

CHOLERA IN HAWAII.
The Disease Said to be Raging
in Honolulu.
It is Said to Have Been Brought
from China.
EIGHT VICTIMS DEAD.
The Natives and Chinese Are
the Principal Sufferers.
EIGHT VICTIMS DEAD.

SAN FRANCISCO Aug. 31.-The Ocean
ic steamship company's steamer Mono
wal, which arrived last night from
Sydney, Australia, did not stop at
Honolulu, as was her custom. The
officers explain that soon after coming
within sight of the port of Honolulu
they caught sight of a small boat maxi
ing toward them. Its action seemed
to portend something out of the ordin-
airy. When it had approached within
hai1ing distance, it stopped short, and
signals were made that the Monowai
should not come nearer.
One of the men in the boat then
shouted to the officers that cholera had
broken out in Honolulu. He said,
further, that it was raging among the
natives and Chinese, and that there
had been eight deaths from the plague.
The officers of the Monowai were also
told across the water that the cholera
had broken out soon after the China
steamer Belgic had left Honolulu. It
is supposed that the steamer brought
the epidemic from China.
The warning was accepted readily
and the report credited. for the in
formants in the boat were recognized.
The spokesman in the small boat was
the American consul at Honolulu, Mr.
Ellis Mills of Virginia, and with him
were the Pacific mail agent and other
officers of prominence.
Captain Carey of the Monowai de-
cided that he would have no com
munication with the islands and
steamed direct for this port, bringing
the Hawaiian passengers here.
The record of the Belgic being
looked up, it was found that she ar
rived here August IT from Honolulu,
but that there was no sickness on
board. After an examination bv
quarantine officers, her passengers
were landed and the cargo discharged.
The Belgic is now on her return trip
to Japan and China ports.
Although no cases have been re-
ported here in San Francisco, yet the
explana ton that cholera in Hawaii
was brought by the Belgic has caused
no little consterna ton here at at the
nearness of the plague.
The Belgic carried a large number
of passengers in the Storage, but most
| of them were landed in Honolulu. It
was among the Honolulu passengers
| that the sickness broke out Accord
ing to the story as shouted from the
small boat to the people on the Mono
| wal, the three Chinese steerage pas
sengers bound for Hawaii died at sea.
] The doctor said that one died from
/ heart disease and the other two from
! pneum0nia. No mention of deaths at
| sea was made by the steamship.
