CHIEFS UNDER ARREST.

Action of the British Government May
Lead to Important Developments.
BOMBAY, Aug. 25. The bridges in
the Upper Punjab are strictly guarded
by small bodies of troops.
It is reported that when the Moham-
medans attacked Fort Shabkadah they
burned all the sacred books Of the Sikh
temple there. This excited the greatest
indignation among the Sikhs through.
out the province, and the Sikh troops
on the frontier are greatly incensed.
The plague is increasing in Poonah.
The Bombay Gazette announces that
three of the principal chiefs of Belu.
chistan, Sirdar Mahratta Whan, Gho-
mosbehakis and Yarmahomed were ar.
rested on their arrival Of the. Mushkaf
Bolan mail train on which they had
been induced to come to Quota to meet
the governor generals agent, who ar
rived on a special train shortly before.
Ghomosbehakis is a son.in.law of Sir
dar Sirad Khan, one of the most loyal
chiefs in Beluchistan. All three of the
chiefs arrested belong to the Sarahwan
district of Beluchistan. They are s
pected of having engaged in intrigues
against the government, and it is said
have been disaffected for some time.
The arrests caused q gread sensation
among the Mohammedans, and further
important developments are expected.

Afridis Compel British Forces to Retire
After Hard Fighting.
LONDON, Aug. rs An official dis.
patch from Simla announced that Fort
Maude, in the Khyber Pass, has been
captured by the Afridis after desperate
fighting. The garrison, which was
composed of native levies known as the
Khyber Rifles, retired with the loss of
three men. The Afridis afterwards
burned the fort.
The fate of Fort Ali Musjid, which
was simultaneously attacked by the
Afridis, is not known.
The British officer commanding at
Jamarud moved a battery Of artillery
escorted by the Fourth dragons, to the
mouth Of the Khyber Pass, and shelled
the enemy at q range Of 5000 yards.
The Afridis retired, but the batteries re.
turned to Jamarud, the officer in com
mand deeming it inadvisable to enter
the pass.

MRS. CARY'S WASH.

Upon the roof on summer nights
Above the hazy city lights,
We sit, sweet Dora Dale and I,
Beneath the cool and friendly sky.
And we listen to the Tapping OF Mrs. Carys
wash,
Like the shaking Of white sails on summer
seas,
And we dream that we are sailing till we
almost hear the swash
OF the water as the lines swing in the
breeze.
Love makes hat roof so dear to me
That all the charms of woods and sea
No longing In my heart can stir
II, having them, ! must leave her.
So we listen to the Tapping Of Mrs. Cary's
wash,
Like the shaking Of white sails on summer
seas,
And we dream that we are sailing till we
almost hear the swash
OF the water as the lines swing in the
breeze.
The neighbors gossip on the roof,
But from the rest we sit aloof
And plan how some day, happily,
Our roof shall be beside the sea.
And we listen to the tapping Of --.s. Cary's

Like the shaking Of white sails on summer

And we dream that we are sailing till we
almost hear the swash

CHICAGO'S GRIM ROMANCE,

Strange Story Brought to Light by Two
Deaths in the Cunning Asylum.
CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-The death of two
patients at the Cunning insane hospital
has brought to light a grim romance.
One of the deaths was that of Lena
Olsen, who has been an inmate of the
asylum for many years, having become
insane through inability to find her old
country lover who preceded her to
America. The other death was that of
Christopher j. Bergstrom, who also
has been an inmate of the asylum for
years. "Old Chris" as he was called,
was said to have frequently mentioned
the name of LENA" in his rawlings and
the authorities believe that the old man
was Lena Olsen's missing lover. The
two had lived under the same roof un.
known to each other, dying nearly at the
same time.

Owing to the inhabitants of Sweden
being very partial to the eggs Of the

not at last totally extirpated. The eggs
of the above species are to be seen for
sale in large numbers in the various
markets in Stockholm.

The Rsbo Flour Bill.

Representative Rebo writes to the
Post Dispatch in behalf OF his bill TO
compel millers and -four dealers to add
another pound of flour to every half
sack package of -four to be placed on
the market. He says that ut least
3,0a0,0o people will be benefited by
this flour bill, should it become n law.
1.-The poor man with, perhaps. ten or
twelve children, working for bread
and who use one-half sack of -four q
week, will gain one pound on each
sack. Fifty-two weeks in year will
be a gain of dfty-two pounds, at pres
ent rates about $I25. So much for
the poor consumer"
Mr.. Rebo also says he has met ev-
cry argument that has been brought
against the bill, and adds that "t1e
bin is equitable and just, and in favor
Of the Loor bread-earner."
Has Mr.. Rebo answered the very
patent objection to such bill. that II
millers and wholesale grocers are COM
PEELED to add another pound Of -four to
every package, they will add enough
to the price of each package to COM
pensate them for the added pound of
flour? The same thing would follow
il the coffee dealers we're compelled
by law to add an ounce to every pound
Of coffee. So with sugar and all other
necessaries of life.
This could not be prevented except
by the State arbitrarily setting the
market prices OF goods. That, OF
course, is out OF the question. What
has Mr.. Rebo TO say to this objections

not care to seek the extreme of change
from the frozen north to the FIoridiau
everglades, or thereabouts. Very few
are from the territory west of the
Mississippi. although Minneapolitan
family of four are now domiciled IN this
hotel. Even the drummer from the
sunset side OF the Big Muddy is very
conspicuous by reason of his absence.
His brethren from Phfladelphia, New
York, Baltimore, and other eastern cit
les, as well as from Chicago. are num-
erous. Looking over the hotel ledger,l
fiud he is busy man. chary of his time
and his landlords pen aud ink. The
Windy City man never writes Ill,
after his town. No properly reared
Chicago drummer will do that. His
towns name is worldwide, and he
will waste none of his time painting
the lily and gliding the refined gold of
her fame. The Quaker City agent al
ways abbreviates it to .sPhila.," aud
he of Cincinnati to Gin" followed
by big o for eaphony. The Goth
amite contents the world with IN. Y"
and it Will do; but draw the line with
the travelling gentleman of the Monu-
mental City: he puts it "Balto.,"
which say is atrocious and not to be
endured. If the North Carolina Leg
islature will stop long enough from its
efforts to tear up the Southern Railway
lease to pass statute forbidding, un-
der extreme pains and penalties, the
abominable and misleading conbiua-
tion of letters last above quoted, it
will cover itself with glory and atone
for its Populistic detection to Hanna.
BALTIC! Faugh! 1t smells to high
heaven, and is not permissible even to
familiar affectation.
But, his shortcomings aside, God
bless the drummer! He is evident
everywhere, and is always--or nearly
always-the same light-hearted. gen.
erous. entertaining companion. The |
world would be lonely without him,
and life = hotel life, particularly
scarcely worth the living. Success to
him. and better times - which last
