TO MANAGE THE SCHILLER.
David Henderson to Have Sole Charge
of the House.

Chicago, Aug. 12.-David Henderson
assumed the active management of the
Schiller theateF yesterday, and will be
in sole charge of the house as well as
the productions.
Speaking about the change, Mr.. Hen
dersOn said:
q made a contract with Mr.. La Motto
in San Francisco last April which gave
me entire control of the Schiller pro-
auctions until August, 1898. I started
in here with comic opera, intending to
discard combinations. The opera sea-
son at popular prices has been an i'm
mense success.
Mr. La Motto and I have arrived at
an AMIGA BILE arrangement by which he
does not resign his lease of the theater,
but I take entire control. He is still in
terested in the theater, but will devote
himself to attractions he is interested
in. The German opera company seems
to be entirely satisfied with this ar
rangement."

MEXICAN SILVER DOLLARS
Are Proving a Boomerang to Chicago
Merchants.

Chicago, Aug. 12.-Those silver dollars
which a number of merchants brought
from beyond the Rio Grande to use as
''object lessons during the presiden-
tia1 campaign have turned out to be
boomerangs. Instead Of changing the
opinions of the workingmen, it is claim
ed that the move has ava kened their
antagonism, and boycotting resolutions
are being circulated by various labor
organizations and reform clubs.
Not only are boycotts being declared,
but it is said that the leaders in the
scheme will be prosecuted for using a
substitute for the legal money of the
United States.
The action of the union printers We'd
nesday night in declaring a boycott on
all merchants connected with flooding
the city with Illegal money was the
principal topic discussed on labor row"
yesterday and today.

RAILWAYS IN MEXICO.
The Government Developing the
Southern System.

The Government Developing the
Southern System.
City of Mexico, Aug. 12-Railway con-
struction in various parts of the re-
public is actively going on and i'm
ports of English railway material, prin-
cipally steel rails, are increasing.
The policy of the government is now
directed to the development and COM
pletton in the most essential parts of
the present railway system, the great
est lack of facilities being in southern
Mexico and along the west coast, which
is agriculturally and mineralIy the
richest portion of the republic.
The government in granting modif-
cations of railway concessions, allows,
on portions not subventioned, rates
which fully conmepnsate in the opin-
ion of railway men the profit to be de-
rived from the subsidies. The most
profitable railway in the country to-
day is the Mexican Northern, operat-
ing in Sierra Mojada mining region
which has no subvention, but is allow
ed to charge such rates that having no
competition it is doing an excellent
business.

BRYAN A PURE MAN.
Next Door Neighbor Tells of His
Character.

Denver. Aug. 12.-''WilIiam Jennings
Bryan, from a moral standpoint, is too
good" said Fred A. Wilson, a business
man of Lincoln and almost a next
door neighbor of the Democratic can
didate for the presidency, at the St.
James yesterday afternoon.
You see, I know Bryan personally
and used to meet him almost daily.
Now, while I am not going to vote for
him, but on the contrary will use every
effort to defeat him, I must admit that
a. purer and more honorable man has
never participated in modern politics
than my fellow citizen, Bryan. I have
spent evenings in his company and
have known him since he took up his
residence in Lincoln, and I have yet
to see him take a drink of liquor, to
use tobacco in any form or to hear him
utter a profane word He is no fanat-
ic, but a true and devout Christian,
imbued with plenty of the milk of
human kindness. His dealings have
always been honorable and his reputa-
ton is as good as that of any man in
the United States. .

LAND FOR ALGER.
The Michigan Man Awarded Vast
Oregon Timber Tract.

Seattle, Aug. I'm an action in
which Gen. Russell A Alger, the Mich
igan statesman, and r. p. Hawley are
plaintiffs, L. E. Diller of this city being
defendant, Federal Judge HanfOrd
yesterday rendered a decision revers-
ing an order of Secretary of the In
terror Smith, and giving Gen. AIger
and his associate title to a vast tract
of timber land in Western Oregon.
The land was entered under an act
providing for the sale of lands chief
~ valuable for timber and stone. At
ter an order of suspension and an in
vestigation, Secretary Smith, in a de-
cision in which he intimated that
gross fraud had been perpetrated, di-
rected that the grant be cancelled and
g. patent granted to defendant, Diler.

METEOR NEAR LANDER.
Grand Spectacle Witnessed Near the
Wyoming Town.

Lander, Wyo., Aug. 12.-The people of
this vicinity were treated last evening
to one of the grandest spectacIes that
has yet been witnessed here.
About o'clock persons were startled
by an unusual sudden brightness over
head, light that outshone the electric
lights on the streets, and, glancing up
ward, saw and heard blazing meteor
flying through the air with remarIa-
BILE rapidity and with a loud kissing
sound.
The fiery mass left in it's wake show
ers of sparks resembling somewhat
those from a skyrocket. When but a
short distance west of the city the
heavenly visitor burst with a loud
noise not unlike the report of a distant
cannon.

THE ssMARBLE HEARTH
Given the President and Cabinet in
Regard to the Notification.

Washington, Aug 12-Chairman
Jones, of the Democratic national COM
mittee, who left last night TO attend the
Bryan-SeWan notification meeting, says
that he knows nothing of Invitations
to President Cleveland and the members
of his cabinet to attend the notification
meeting, and, therefore, does not expect
either their presence or communica-
tons from them.
1t is, therefore, inferred that the
president and the other members of the
administration will not be invited to at
tend this official gathering OF the party
to which they belong, and that the pres
ent managers of that party desire thus
to emphasize the population of the ad-
nainistration by the Chicago convention,
believing that this will popuIarize Bry-
an and SeWall.

HANNA FOR SENATOR.
His Name Now Mentioned as Sher-
mans Successor.

Cleveland, o., Aug. 1.-THE name of
Marc Hanna is now frequently men
toned for the United States senate to
succeed John Sherman. So far, how
ever, no one has Hanna's authority to
assert that McKinIey's manager has
any ambition in this direction. Sher-
mans friends declare that his financial
views make himself his logical success
scr. The senator will probably find
considerable opposition among Repub-
Hcan legislators. Should his party
control the next legislature there will
be a number of candidates who will
urge their claims, maintaining that
Sherman has been honored enough.
The Ohio campaign will be opened on
Saturday next at Columbus. The meet
ing viii be addressed by Senator Sher-
man and Senator Elect Foraker.

BEER WAR OFF.
Sale of Tremendous Schooners a.
Wheeling to Cease

Wheeling. Aug PA meeting of all
the saloonkeepers except those on
Water street, who are taking part in
the big glass beer war, was held today
to devise means for stopping the fight.
1t has been going on three weeks, the
glasses used holding 80 ounces, which
by careful drawing, leaves barely 81 a.
barrel for handling the beer.
The result has been to draw nearly
all the trade from other sections to
Water street and to nearly break the
Water street saIoonists. All but one
have agreed to return to the nine-ounce
glasses Monday. and a boycott will be
declared on all brewers selling to him
if he persists in selling big beers.

MOSQUITOES A TERROR.
The Plaguey Little Insects Depopu-
late a Town.

Arlington. N. J., Aug. 1Z-There is a
plague of mosquitoes here. Many peo-
pie have closed their homes and gone to
the seaside and mountain resorts until
the frost kills the pests. Last week
seven families moved away permanent
No one undertakes, unless urgently
necessary, to venture out after dark.
For two weeks the streets at night have
presented the appearance of a. plague
stricken city.
No one living here recalls a similar
state of affairs. Mosquitoes are always
plentiful in summer, but they never be-
fore succeeded in getting into the houses
as at present.
Every known remedy has been tried,
and the best are only Of temporary val
ne. Canopies are of little use. Unless
there is some cessation in the nuisance
many more families will leave the town
in a few days.
