COUNT PULAsKps GRAND-N1EcE.
Starving in New York with an I'm

ment.


paid Claim Against the Govern
ment.
From the Boston Herald.
New York, July 5.-Mme. Josephine ia
rocka, grand-niece Of Count Pulaski.
who gave his life and fortune to America
in the war of the revolution, is starving
to-day in Brooklyn. Nine. Jarocka re-
lated to-day the sad story of her resi-
dence in America and her struggles in
prosecuting the claim of her family
against the government for money al
vanced to the continental congress.
She is a daughter of a once wealthy
Pole, whose father was a brother of
Count Pulaski. The Russian government
in 1863 seized her fathers estate, and her
only brother was transported to Siberia
She was divorced from her husband and
in 1858 began the struggle for the money
due to her family from this government;
She first appealed TO the Russian gov
eminent for aid, and through them her
cause was placed before the American
minister. The case dragged on for sew
eral years, nothing being accomplished
In 1872, she says, she received $500 from
the American government to come to
this country and prosecute her claim
in person. She landed in New YORK
early in 1873, ignorant of the country,
it's customs, manners and language on
the last day of Hayes term of office
she went to Washington, and there ey-
perienced the usual fortunes Of those
who have a government claim.
Vice President Arthur interested him
self in her behalf enough to pro-
cure a place for her in the Quarter.
masters department, where she earned
enough to keep her from starving. She
retained this place during his Administered
ton, but with Clevelands advent vas
turned out and compelled to face the
i haa
in getting the government to recognize
her claim.
Finding all her efforts to win her
cause useless, she went to BROOKLYN
to live with a nephew. There she tried
to make a living selling newspapers. bur
could not. Poverty and destitution seem
to leave her no resource but the aims
house. Her ancestor, the great Pulaski
fell in front of Savannah, Oct g. 1879
while leading the French and American
cavalry.

MAN AND OCCASION MET.
Ex-senator Pat walsh Pleased with

Ex-senator Pat Walsh, Pleased With
Bryan's Nomination.
Chicago, July lin speaking to a rep
resetative OF the United Press last night
about Mr.. Bryans nomination, ex-Sena,
tor Walsh OF Georgia said: Mr.. Bry-
ans speech secured his nomination.
knew that he was eloquent, but his speech
has made him great Thursday morning
he did not appear to be a possibility.
but his address to the convention made
him a certainty. Eloquence is not a
lost art. There never was a more strik-
ing illustration OF the power OF speech to
move mems hearts and to influence their
Judgment than in this instance. When
Mr.. Bryan concluded his nomination was
assured. There was no power to pre-
vent IL. This convention was run by the
that could have been effective to stop
the verdict that the delegates had made
up their minds to render. Machine poll
tics were eliminated from the nomina-
ton. The leaders, even if they so de-
sired, had no power to prevent the selec-
ton of Mr.. Bryan as the standard-bearer
of the democratic party. The man and
the occasion met. 1 have reached the con-
clusion that Mr.. Bryan is the strongest
candidate that could be placed in nominal
ton to represent the platform. 1t is con-
fidently believed that he will be Endorsed
and supported by the free silver republi-
cans and populists. The leaders of the
parties last named assert that they will
support Mr.. Bryan and that the national
democratic convention has named the
strongest candidate for the presidency.
The unanimity of his nomination proves
him to be the logical candidate of the
silver men. He is an embodiment of the
paramount issue in the campaign. If free
silver coinage cannot win with Mr.. Bryan
as its standard-bearer it will be due to
the cause and not to the candidate, who
will receive the full vote of the advo-

Philadelphia, July 1.-THE steamship
Laurada, which has become well known
as a Cuban hlibustering vessel, left her
dock tonight She cleared for Port An
tonic, Jamaica.
Capt w. w Kerr, counsel for her own
ers, the John D. Hart Company, said this
afternoon that the steamer would stop
at Key West for a cargo of ice. When
the captain said this he winked his
weather eye, lay back in his chair and
laughed heartily at his Joke. Then he
said: I'VE don't admit that this trip is a
filibustering expedition. We won't have
any Scandinavians in the crew; they cant
be trusted. The captain, two mates and
three engineers will be white, but the
rest of the crew will be American colored
men. They will get extra wages and can
be depended on to work, fight and keep
their mouths shut. When the cargo of
ice is put aboard at Key West the yes
sci will steam around the coast of Cuba
so as to give the new crew chance to
see what the island looks like. Then she
will finish her trip, load up and come
home again."

\ special meeting OF tho Wheeling
board OF education may DO held next
Mondny evening, when the report OF the
special committee. appointed nearly
eighteen months ago TO rcvIs' the rules
governing the board, viii bring In It's re-
port.
The new rules have been printed by
the committee, una read by members OF
the board and others. Already there Is Il
strong opposition 10 some OF the new
provisions. For instance one rule re-
duCes tho school year from ten months
10 nine ana one-halt months, but mnkeg
no provision for Il reduction In teachers
salaries. The committee makes the
claim that the last half month OF the
school year. in Junt. Is usually the occa.
sion o, such warm weather, that school
work Is not up to the standard. y gem
tlcmaH who spoke of this section or the
new rules. said that the committee Is
acting contrary TO the trend OF scntI-
mcnt In other cities. In cities where the
school term IS nine months, there is usu-
ally a strong sentiment for ten months
OF school. and IN cities having eight
months school. nine months IL usually
desired. The committee on rules OF the
Wheeling board. on the other hand. is
moving In n backward direction.
Another section that Is being received
with disapprOval by some citizens Is
the one that provides FOR the length OF
timdthe public library shall be open on
Sunday. Formerly the library was
open from noon to 8 p. M, then there
was a change, the hours being made p.
m. TO 0 p. III. Now. in the new rules.
which the committee Will recommend
for adoption, the hours are made y. III.
10 6 p m. This section Is being received
with particular dIsilvor By the working
people VINO have little or no opportunity
10 take advantage of the iiEa library
during the week. \ gentleman who
spoke OF this provision In the new rules.
Egked II It would nOt be better 10 have
az many 70 10 the library on Sunday MS
possible. and Keep them out Of saloons
and other places OF Generalization On
the Sabbath.
Still another section that Is considered
Questionable Is that which provides that
the board OF education shall have the
authority TO d.lmIss teachers ut any
time without even Formally OF hearing
ind without charges being presented.
Heretofore teachers have been appoint
ed for the year and could De removed
only for cause.
II there Is n special meeting Monday
evening. Il will no doubt be a lively one.

The Great MetaphysIcian.

Butte, March metaphysics, pure
and simple, develops many remarkable
things, and has effected cures of dis
eases which in ancient times would
have been regarded as miraculous.
The enlightenment of this age recog-
nizes II as mind healing. r. H. Molo-
ney of Butte, possesses unusual meta
physical power and is the only meta
physical healer practicing in Montana,
and were ii not that many of his pa
tents are in Butte to-day and in per-
feet health, one would feel skeptical
over the statements of cures. During
the epidemic of pneumonia and la grip
in 1891, Mr.. Moloney had twenty
cases at one time, all of whom recov-
cred. Many have the impression that
in mind cure one must be a believer in
the efficacy of such treatment. but such
is a mistake. Many of the most skep-
teal have been cured, but IL Is needless
to say they are no longer skeptics. Mr..
Moloney takes up any case for $500 and
gives whatever treatment is necessary
for a week and his charge is $500 pei
week thereafter. Some are cured with
one treatment and many patients are
susceptible Of treatment at any dis
lance, while others yield more slowly
and must be present.
Tonight Mr. Moloney gives a free
lecture at his room 12S New Owsley
| on Metaphysical Divorce" which
will be of great interest. Go and hear
him. If you are suffering from any
| disease consult this remarkable man
| and II may be the means of your COM
plete restoration. Consultation will
| cost you nothing unless you take treat.
