SALEM, VA, April 1-{Special.) -Last
Saturday night Bishop Randolph preach
ed here, and confirmed the largest
number OF people I'm the history of St

uniting themselves with the Church. The
services were very touching, as several
prominent citizens were among the num-
ber as was also Mr.. Surh. the Korean
student at Roanoke College, who on
the same night, and previous 10 being
confirmed. was christened by the rec
tor. This Is the second Korean TO con-
meet themselves with a Salem church,
the other being the wife OF Hon. We Cha
Yum. who a few years ago Joined the
PRESBYTERIAN Church. In the Bishop ;
sermon he was very emphatic in his re-
marks against the doctrine OF sanctifca-
ton.

A number OF our exchanges are giving
TO Mr.. John Shelton Williams, Of this
city, great praise for the ability shown
by him in the work OF reorganizing the
Savannah, Americus, and Montgomery
Railroad Company. now known as
the Georgia and Alabama Rail-
road Company. This is line $40
miles In length, which Mr.. Williams
raised the money for, took out of the
hands of the receiver. and started anew,
himself having been elected to the presi-
dency. 1t is said that much OF the money
that was needed for this reorganization
was subscribed in Richmond and that
the profits on the transaction have been
very satisfactory indeed. Mr Williams IS
now devoting his vast energy TO putting
the Richmond Traction Company into ope-
tlou. and that this will be the beginning
OF new era in the street-ear business
Of Richmond cannot be doubted.

The Duke and Duchess OF Marlborough
are now at Blenheim. Upon their ar
rival at Woodstock on Tuesday they found
the railway station there handsomely de-
corated. and were received by the Mayor
the CORPORATION, and the local clergy
men. The horses were taken from the
ducal barouche, and the tenants drew
the barouche containing the young couple
to the palace. escorted by the mounted
yeomanry. Everywhere there were
cheers for America and England,
intermingled with shouts of wei
come" When the barouche reached the
courthouse 1.-THE Mayor made a speech
an address of welcome was read, and the
Duke replied appropriately" The Duke
reply being concluded, the procession,
headed by a band OF music, started for
the palace. Woodstock was densely crowd
ed throughout the day. and excur-
sion trains were run from morning until
night. "The bearing Of the Duchess was
so frank and graceful as to elicit general
admiration" So the dispatch tells US.
II would seem that 1.-THE American Ouch
ess" is very happy; If so. may her hap
piness long continue. She is doubtless a
very creditable specimen Of American wo-
manhood, albeit her taste for titles car
ried her across the water and into a
society which will not hesitate to snub
her on small provocation.

Montrose did not reply. He could
scarcely follow the doctor in his dis
course. His thoughts were all en-
gagged with the hapless EUdOra and the
train of unutterable miSfortunes that
lay before her.
While he stood in bitter sorrow, a
constable, holding a warrant in his
hand, approached, and touching his
hat to the doctor and Mr.. MOntrOSe,
requested that they would please &C

The story opens in AIlworth Abbey. Lord
Ieaton has been taken III with a disease
which battles the skin of the doctors. Eu-
dora. his niece, is his constant attendant,
and becoming worn out from want OF sleep,
Lady Leat0n takes her place. While the
latter is changing a dress in an adjoining
apartment she suspects the presence Of
some one in the sick room, but can find
nothing on which TO found her suspicious
and attributes them TO fancy. A sleeping
potion that had been prepared by Eudora
is given 10 Lord Leaton when he becomes
suddenly worse and dies. The doctor sus-
poets poisoning. An inquest is held. but
nothing decisive is elected. Agatha Leaton
daughter OF Lord Leatoa Is betrothed 10
her cousin, Malcol9l Montrose. She has
been declining in health rapidly and sud
denly dies: the doctor suspects poisoning,
end In an interview with Malcolm charges
Eudora with causing the death OF Lord Lea
ton and Agatha by means of ssome secret
poison that leaves no trace of its insidious
work. Malcolm, who has become attached
20 Eudora, expresses his confidence In her
innocence, Princess Pezzilini, who has been
making her home at Allworth Abbey, has
been trying 10 turn Lady Leaton against
Eudora from the first meeting. by expressed
suspicious and inuendoes. Closely following
Agatha's death, Lady Leaton is taken yio-

at the, Beginning of GRANTS
Term.

Labor Commissioner Powers and his
stafr are at work on statistics showing
the relation of the freight rates on
wheat TO the prices of that staple in
the markets of the world, and while the
computations are not yet finished,
enough has been done to show that the
rates are not such a factor in the
prices as might be imagined upon a
casual consideration.
Statistics accurately compiled from
the fullest returns available, show that,
while the all-rail rate on grain ship
ments from Chicago to New York in
1869 was 20 cents per Genital, 1t was
only third of that amount in 1894,
and remains practically, the same now.
And yet the value of the crops of
the Mississippi valley states for 1869
was $13.55 per ton when the freight
TO New York was $14 a ton in 1859, and
only $3.50 in 1894, when the freight
rate was less than S. ton. So that,
while the freight rates have been re-
duced twO-thirds, a decrease that might
be presumed to have accrued to the
benefit of the producer, there has not
only been reduction of his selling
price corresponding to this, but nearly
a dollar a ton greater.
From this the labor commissioner
infers that the price of grain at the
farm is less dependent on the freight
rates charged for its delivery at the
ultimate market than it is on other

TWAS MERRY WITHIN.
At the Reporters Benefit, Even If
Wet without.

Friends of the St. Paul Reporters club
who braved the elements to go to the Grand
opera house last evening were well repaid.
Larger audiences have gathered In smaller
places but no more satisfactory evenings
entertainment was ever given in st. Paul.
From the opening number by the orchestra
to the close of the weirdly beautiful Svengali
hypnotic dance everything moved without
hitch; and there was not one dull movement.
The audience was quick to see the good
things and was generous in applause.
]. J. Ryder extended welcome on behalf
of the reporters, and thanked the audience
for attending on such disagreeable night.
The musical numbers on the programme were
by the Twin City Mandolin club, under d.
rection of Prof. Snyder, and Messrs Ryder
and Skoog. They were exceedingly well
handled Franklyn w. Lee and Fred G.
Hunt gave a humorous monologue and
Shakespearean reading, respectively. Mr. Lee
is too we'll known to need praise, and of
Mr.. Hunt it may be said he accentuated the
good opinion of his abilities already enter
tanned by those who know him. Miss LII
liam Knott sang a soprano solo in man
ner which proved her thorough artist who
makes excellent use Of good voice Charles
Fostelle, as the premiere assoluta, was funny
enough to create roars of laughter; yet he
was as nimble and as natural as any fairy

Hood" were contributed by Lindsey Morrison,
and both were Of a high order Of merit. Mr..
Morrison possesses voice of more than
dnary power and compass. Tenney and
Wolf appeared in a black-face sketch, and
had to respond to a double encore. The au
dence was so taken with the clever planta-
tion speciality Of the Nichoi sisters that they
finally had to beg off. when tired out, John
J. Christians roller skating exhibition was
the best seen here in years. and continual
applause rewarded his work Ben Grin
nell's grotesque Svengali hypnotic dance can
only be understood when it is seen. Grin
nell is certainly one OF the very best singing
and dancing comedians in the country and
acquits himself superbly.
The Reporters club feels under. obligation
to Miss Corinne and Manager Matt Berry
also the several members of the Corinne
company who took part; and to Manager
Kingsbury and Muscaf~ Director Seling&of
the Grand opera house. for favors rendered
