Washington, Oct. 1S.-It now appears
that H c. McGrew, the alleged Ari-
iona man. who has been sent by Pres
ident Mckinley with a carpet bag to
take the salt Lake land office receiver
ship. is an Ohio man He was for
nerIy chief of division in the land Office
here, and has been known as a per-
sonal friend and active partisan of Sen
atOr Foraker. It is to this circum-
stance that Salt Lake City owes the
honor Of his official connection with
her affairs.
Senator Hanna is engaged in a des-
perate effort to harmonic the Foraker
element, which has bolted in Cincin-
natl and Toledo, and MeGrew is said
TO have influential friends among the
rebels.
Delegate Marcus A Smith says Ari-
IONA Republicans are quite as much
astonished and outraged by his ap-
pointment as those of Utah. Il am
told" Mr.. Smith says TO The Herald,
that he only went TO Arizona since
the last election. However that may be
II is plain that he owes his appoint
ment absolutely to influences outside Of
both Utah and Arizona

IN THE CRESCENT 5c1TYl
Hundred Mark Of Deaths Reached
Yesterday.

New Orleans, Oct 1S.-Before 7
O'Clock this evening the 100 mark of
deaths during the present period of
yellow fever prevalence had been
reached. When the board of health
closed its books last night there had
been SO fatal cases. Between last night
and nightfaM today seven deaths were
reported. This century of deaths has
occurred as among less than 900 cases
that have been reported to the board
since early in September, when the
first case made its appearance in New
Orleans.
AS usual. however, today's record
has been swelled by the terrible GRIM
inal neglect of the poorer classes. The
record today was by no means re-
assuring. Early this evening the new
cases exceeded 80 and the deaths had
reached seven.

Chicago's Time Warrants

Mayor Harrison and Comptroller
Robert A. Waller have devised plan
that hereafter all time warrants shall be
purchased by local banks and accepted
by them at per cent interest, a reduc-
tion of per cent on the interest hitherto
paid and saving on time warrants, on
the basis of the issue of last year, 81, 400,
900, or $24, 900 annually.
The local banks which take the time
warrants have made a written contract
with the comptroller that all the con-
tractors warrants presented to them vii
be accepted at their face value.
The banks have already under the
agreement taken patches of warran Is
ranging in value from 100000 to $780,
000
One effect of the agreement Saturday
was that the comptroller retired from q
New York concern $500, 900 worth of war
rants bearing per cent interest, and
they will be refloated here at per cent
saving the city $4,000 in intereset.
The comptroller will name in the cou-
pom the bank to which it can be pre-
sented but it is not compulsory with the
contractor to take it to that bank. He
can present it to any one of the dozen or
more banks in the compact and they
will take it up at face value.-Chicago go

A Case to Slip Over the Draperies

City housekeepers have learned that
they do not need to take down thei-
heavy draperies in order to care Tor them
properly through the summer months.
Upholsterers have devised means for
protecting them as they hang. For
the straight lengths that fall al the Win
dows over lace curtains long bag Of
furniture linen is made, into which the
tapestry or velours, or what it may be
slips easily. This bag goes quite up and
over the rings that move on the pole
Its effect is not unsightly in the least,
quite the contrary. For archway lam
brequins or doorway hanging of any
sort, similar fitted covers are made, per-
fectly protecting the material from
light, dust and moths, and yet not In
the least crumling or crushing the folds
1t is, in fact, the least injurious way that
can be devised and is only expensive
the first year as the cases will last in
definitely.-New York Evening Post.

The Girl in the Back Line

The next time you go to see a comic
opera or burlesque, take your glasses
and have look at the girl in the back
line. suppose you've never noticed her.
That's nothing. Nobody ever does. She
has such timid, retiring, almost an
apologetic air. Do you know the cause =?
She has been told by the stage director
to "get back" so often that she is in a
constant state of amazement that she is
permitted to remain on earth at all
Perhaps you think she is not as young,
pretty, or attractive as her sisters in
row number one. You are mistaken.
She is attractive, but being too refined
to meet the taste of the etage-man-
ager, he judges all by himself, and keeps
her well out Of sight. There is more
talent In one back line than in a whole
army Of "footlight fairies" 1 remem
ber young girl who was a hopeless
case of back-line at the Casino a few
years ago. She is now a well-known
leading lady, has been with DAILY several
seasons, and has lately been engaged
to support William II. Clare. Take
my advice. The next time you go to the
opera, level your glasses and give the
girl in the back line a chance.-Mirror.
