to the Murray Hill hotel here
last night with his wife. Both

this morning. After breakfast they
returned to their room. They had

when Mrs Flagg ran screaming down
the stairs to the lobby OF the hotel and
declared that her hus band had jumped
from the window.
Employees Of the hotel rushed out
and found Dr. Flagg OH the sidewalk.
His skull had been fractured and one
leg broken and he had received severe
bruises. He was carried into the ho-

JAPANS GREAT ENTERPRISE IN.
AMERICA.
LARGE APPROPRIATION BY I'M
PERIAL DIET.
TO INFORM AMERICANS now TO
MAKE TEA.

Several months ago, the Japanese
Tea Guild sent to this country a special
commission, composed of Mr.. S. Nit
suhashi, president of Shizuoka Prefec-
tural Assembly, and Mr.. ]. ohara mem
Der Of Japanese parliament, to investi-
gate the condition of the Japanese tea
trade in the United States and Canada,
and to cooperate with Mr.. T. Furuya
and Mr.. T. Mizutany, the American
representatives of the Japanese Tea
Guild, in giving publicity to the merits
OF Japanese teas and the method Of
preparing them for drinking which
would insure the best results.
Mr.. Furuya and Mr.. Mlzutany are
planning to open tea bazars in many of
the principal cities in the United
States and Canada. where ladies can
enjoy cup of fine Japanese tea made
by experts, and at the same time re-
cetVe instructions which win enable
them to make it equally we'll at home.
More than half the tea consumed in
the United States and Canada is OF
Japanese growth, yet, the majority of
Americans apparently do not under
stand how to prepare it SO as to de-
velop the delicious qualities which 1t
contains. 1t is believed by these gen.
tlemen that when Americans are in
possession Of the secret of making good
tea, the consumption in this country
will fully equal that Of Europe in pro-
portion. The Japanese government
has appropriated a large fund to aid
the Japanese tea growers and tea mer-
chants in prosecuting this educational
work, and it is hoped that American
ladies will be apt students. The main
bureau Of the Japanese Tea Guild has
issued an official recipe for making Jap
anese tea. the translation Of which is
as follows:
First-Use a small, dry and thorough
ly clean porcelain teapot.
Second-Put in one teaspoonful Of
tea leaves for each cup Of tea desired.
Third-When using Japanese teas,
pour on the required quantity of fresh
boiled water, and let stand with closed
lid from to 3 minutes. Never boil
the leaves. In order to retain the nat
ural flavor, Japanese tea leaves should
be kept in tight can or Jar, free from
moisture.
Note.-To thoroughly enjoy the nat
ural, delicate. and sweet flavor of Jap
anese teas, neither sugar nor cream
should be used.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct 4.-The
steamer Farrallone, which arrived this
morning from Skaguay, Alaska,
brought 10 returning prospectors,
among the number being Lonis Lang,
who left Dawson City, August &c. He
said: when l left Dawson the stores
had stopped selling supplies and res
taurants had closed because they
could get nothing to cook. l believe
that provisions will be scarce, although
many of the miners are leaving.
In my opinion 200 or 300 will come
out over the Dalton trail within the
next few weeks, while a great many
Others are going down by st. Michaels.
It was a great mistake in trading COM
panies to bring so much whisky up
the river instead of supplies. Before
we left Dawson nine cattle had been
driven in and four of them butchered
Choice cuts brought 81. so per pound,
while soup bone was worth so cents
1 paid 81 and 5. !25 per pound for elk
meat As we wanted to get out as
quickly as possible, l bought but very
few provisions, the entire pack of each
man, blanket and all, weigh
ing about sixty pounds. We came up
the river to Five Gingers and then out
over the Dalton trail. We crossed the
summit September 81 in a snow storm
and had Indian guides to show us the
way. We had to wade knee deep in
snow We met the Sharp party twelve
miles this side of the summit with
their cattle and it seemed to me
doubtful whether they would get in.
1t took us just twenty-seVen days to
get down to tide water"
Another passenger upon the Farral-
lone was Henry Bratnober, the min
ing expert, who is confidential man
for the London Exploration company,
which is controlled by the Roths-
childs. He has been over the Yukon
diggings, going in and returning over
the Dalton trail.
Others on board were Lieutenant s.

Colonel G. G. barrow, formerly cap
italist of Denver, but now living at
Montpelier, Ind. A. Lambeth, wealthy
mining man of Helena, Mont; 0. D.

White Pass with his partner, man
named Macarthur. There they decided

Democratic Alliance of Greater Ne

Democratic Alliance of Greater Now
York ReaHirms the Chicago Platform.
NEW YORK, Oct. AT the city
nominating convention of the Demo-
cratic Alliance Of Greater New York,
held last night, Henry George was
unanimously nominated for mayor.
The nominating speech was made by
Charles Francis Adams. The nomin-
alton was greeted with enthusiastic
applause. The platform, in part, is as
follows:
"The Democratic Alliance is body
of Democrats loyal to the policy Of
the great Democratic party. Our aim
and object was to find basis for
united action of all Democrats in the
pending municipal contest. We deemed
it essential that the Democratic party
of Greater New York should reafirm
the Chicago platform, pledge itself to
the policy of municipal ownership and
operation of franchises and to the
principles of direct employment in
stead of the contract system. The
action of tho city convention Of Sep
TENDER 80 is clear to all men. Tam
many and her allies hide away the
national banner of Democracy, and
are ashamed to march under its folds
1.-THE Benedict Arnolds of last fall,
who deserted to the enemy on the eve
of the battle, are to be restored to
places of honor and friendship; the
franchise grabbers are to retain their
clutch on the city's highways, by
Tammany's aid and connivance, Thus
Tammany and her allies separate
themselves in principle and policy
from the great Democratic party Of
the nation, and must be looked upon
solely as local body of unprincipled
spoils-hunters, unfit to sit in the coun-
ellis of the party whose doctrine they
ignore and whose honor they betray."

Treasurer Make Defense.
OMAHA, Neb., Oct 4-.The famous
case wherein the state is trying to OBJ
tain judgment against the bOndsmen
of defaulting Treasurer BARLEY, was
stated to a jury in Omaha, After the
attorney general said that he would
prove that after BARLEY had held the
Office four years S557,OOO was missing
from the funds, the defense made the
startling announcement that BARLEY
was not legally in Office during the
last two years of his term, hence they
are not liable for the money he stole.
Bartley's term commenced January
l. The law specifically declares that
the treasurer must qualify and file his
bond prior to that time. In this case
Governor Holcomb refused to approve
the bond January 2, because of some
defect. The matter was then over
looked until January o, when it was
approved. There are decisions that
would indicate that the state supreme
court has held in favor of the precise
position of the defense. In the mean
time BARLEY is in Jail under sentence
to the penitentiary for twenty-one
years. What was done with the stolen
money is mystery which the present
trial is expected to clear

John E Fowler, Luetgert juror, was
not feeling well, but expressed a de-

opened at the usual hour. A phono-

photograph reproductions of some of
the evidence will be heard all over

lege, who was called to identify vari-
GUS bones placed in evidence by the
prosecution and declared by the de-
Tense to be those of the lower ami
mails. He was less confident than
other experts and refused to identify
the gorilla femur, which had proved a
stumbling block to DR.. Airport He
also refused to commit himself as to a
temporal bone, saying that he wanted
something more than an isolated bone
in order to positively state its prOba-
BILE nature and connection.
On REORGANIZATION by McEwan,
assistant states attorney, Dr. Merrill
lat was led into fat contradiction of
DR.. Airport as to the Identification of
a femur which Airport had positively
identified as the upper part of the
femur of hog, DR.. Merrillat just as

Value Of Grain Chan.

As the time for threshing APP
proaches we would urge on grain
farmers the necessity Of separating
the grain chaff from the straw for
winter feeding. If the straw is to be
sold for bedding or used for bedding
at home It will go farther If free from
chaff. The latter is much the best
part of the straw to feed When ma
ture makes the grain, all the valuable
nutrition is concentrated in or near
the head. Some of this remains in
the chat. There are besides some
light grains that are blown out with
the chaff in cleaning.
