Golfers Weekly, Nov. g.

The current number of Golfers Week
ly is replete with matter of interest to
lovers of literature. The staff of this
able journal is composed of writer's of the
first rank. The editorials are always
f~orceful and scholarly, the fiction excel
lent, the illustrations timely and artis-
tic. Edgar Saltus and Julian Hawthorne
contribute photographic comments of in
cisive interest, and Edgar Fawcett writes
from London of the topics, literary and
social, that agitate the English capital.
The cartoon by Sonntag Illustrative Of
the Cuban Situation and our stand with
regard to fiilibustering throws graphic
light on this much-mooted question.
The editor of Golfers announces a new
short story by Henry James as soon
forthcoming, with others by Zangwill
and writers of like prominence to follow.
Also weekly articles on Books, the ORA
ma, Fashion, and Finance. We look
forward with interest to these develop
ments of this ambitious and entertaining
weekly.

The editor of this excellent illustrated
journal hat the distinguished
novelist, Mr.. Henry James, has com.
pleted a serial story, 1.-The Turn of the
Screw" that is shortly to appear in its
columns. The story. it is said. is to be
one of Mr.. James most powerful works,
while preserving the distinction of style
that has made him famous. 1t deals, it
is said, with some of the aspects of the
supernatural. The regular staff of Col
lier's includes already a brilliant array
of literary Edgar Saltus, Julian
Hawthorne, Edgar Fawcett, and John
Habberton are a few of it's regular con-
tributors. During the coming year this
journal. according to its editorial an
nouncement, is about to enlarge its al
ready sufficiently varied and ambitious
scope. The illustrations are to be put
on a higher level than before and sew
eral new literary departments to be in
augurated. Such a programme will un-
doubtedly attract the attention of the
intelligent reading public, who are quick
to seize upon what is best in both litera-
ture and art.

Manager Doddridge. he claims. and in
dignantly demanded to know what was
meant by blacklsting his name. The
general manager seemed to be as greatly
surprised as Hurley had been. He said
there was surely some mistake some
where. He would start an investigation
at once and requested Hurley to call a
week later.
On his next visit, so the petitioner
claims, Mr.. Doddridge said he had dis
covered the error; that the man intended
to be blacklisted was not the ex-rOad-
master, but a brakeman of similar name.
It was Hurley's turn to be astonished
again, for on being shown the name, he
said it was that of his own son, who was
still in the employ of the road. This was
a puzzle for Mr.. Doddridge, and he prom
ised to make further investigation.
Thus the controversy went on, with les
SEEMING satisfaction on both sides, until at
last Mr.. Hurley and his attorney, Senator
Stone, demanded that something definite
be done. Then Mr.. Doddridge offered
Hurley a temporary position as section
boss. This was declined because Hurley
believed it to be only a scheme to procure
his discharge later and enter the fact as
a record of defense. What he wanted
was some compensation for the loss of
time, money, property ana GOOD name py
reason of the wrongful and unlawful
placing of his name on the blacklist.
At this point in the story General Man
ager Doddridge appears to have grown
weary of the whole affair and referred
Hurley and his attorney to the legal de-
partment of the company Another long
delay ensued while the lawyers were
wrestling with the case, and then came
the companys fiat refusal to pay Mr..
Hurley one cent or give him any further
consideration. He could do what he
pleased, and what he pleased to do was
to institute suits, civil and criminal as
did the engineer of the Missouri, Kansas
& Texas road some weeks ago.

BURNING OF THE APIA.
The Crew Escaped After Trying in
Vain to Save Her.


New York, June 24.-Fathoms deep on
a coral bed off the treacherous Florida
keys lies the charred hull of the Amer
lean schooner Apia and Amelia which
burned to the waters edge and sank
June Is. Her captain, c. w. Willard
and his crew of eight men, who barely
escaped with their lives from the burn
ing vessel just arrived here on the Nal
lory liner COncho.
The Apia and Amelia sailed out of the
port of Pasca goula, Miss, June 3,bOund
for this port. Lumber filled every
available space below decks and it was
piles high on her decks. When fire
broke out near the after hatch, June 10,
Capt Willard was determined to save
his schooner, if possible, and while three
men were told off to form a bucket
brigade, the others, with their felt hats
soaked with water and drawn down
over their faces, to protect them from
the heat, made bold dash at the
smoking hatch, succeeding in tumbling
the lumber overheard, while their
mates kept them drenched with water
drawn from the sea.
It was all in vain, however, for the
flames crept along the decks beams and
burst forth from the forward hatch. It
was then apparent that the schooner
was doomed, and the long boat hanging
from the stern davits was hastily pro-
visioned. Without waiting even to Sc
cure the schOOner's papers her skipper
and crew piled into the boat and were
af1oat. They were picked up by a pilot
boat and landed at Key West where
they obtained passage on the COnchO.

BRYAN is DEFENDED.
Allen and Butler Deny Bateman's
Charges on the Floor of the Senate.

Allen and Butler Deny Bateman's
Charges on the Floor of the Senate.
Washington, June 24.-After con-
test lasting throughout the day, the
senate completed the paragraphs of the
wool schedule relating to raw wool and
advanced into the features relating to
wooden goods. The day was devoted
largely to a discussion of the effect of
tariff rates on the price of wool, and the
speeches were on technical lines in the
main.
At one point Mr.. Hoar diverted the
discussion by a reference to William J.
Bryan's opposition to the tariff. This
brought Senators Mantle, Allen and
Stewart to the defense of Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Quay made a strong effort to
have the house advalorem rates on
third class wool adopted but he was de-
feated. The vote was 10 to Al.
Early in the day Mr.. Allen, POp.) of
Nebraska, rising to question of per-
sona1 privilege, made a sweeping denial
of public charges that William Jennings
Bryan had contributed $500 to the Pop
ulist cause, in order to effect fusion. .
He read a published dispatch from
Lewiston, Me, saying that Prof. L. G.
Bateman, candidate of the Peoples par
ty of Maine for governor last year was
out in an attack on W. ]. Bryan to the
effect that Mr. Bryan's gift of s., 500 to
the Populist National committee was
with the distinct understanding that no
action against fusion should be taken
by the Populist National convention.
He said Mr.. Bryan had determined to
divide the royalties on his book and in
doing so, he allotted 81, 500 to the Popu-
list party. The draft was sent to Mr..
Allen, but the chairman of the POpulist
National commftte, Senator Butler of
North Carolina, declined to accept it.
Thereupon at the suggestion of Mr..
Bryan, Mr. Allen invested the amount
to be used in the interest of bimetallism
Mr.. Allen declared that the statemen.
that any agreement existed as 20 fusion
in connection with the gift was an alb
sOlute and unqualified faIsehOOd.
There never had been he declared an
attempt to fuse the parties, either ma
tionaIly or locally. Mr.. Allen also spec
ifically denied the statement that Mr..
Bryan forged his, (Allen's) name to
the list appended to the letter of noti-
ficatiOn. The senator closed with a
high tribute to Mr. Bryan and an ar
raignment of Prof. Bateman.
Mr.. Butler stated briefly that the Of
fer was made to him, but he felt impeIl-
ed to decline it. He approved Mr.. Bry-
ans motive but felt that the acceptance
might be open to misconstruction. The
offer had been made, he said without
any condition expressed or implied.

BUFFALO HERD FOUND.
It Numbers Between Seventy and
Eighty Head

San Antonio Tex, June 24-Eben R.
Berdowe, a sheep man of Preside cOun-
ty has arrived here and says that two
of his herders have rediscovered the
herd of wild buffalOes that has been re-
ported from time to time during the
past four years to be feeding in almost
impenetrable valleys bordering on the
Rio Grande. He states that the herd
is now in the extreme southern part Of
BucheI county, and that it numbers be
tween 20 and so head, including several
calves.
This herd of buffalo was first discov-
cred four years ago by a Mexican ranch
man, and has been seen by number of
different persons since then. Two years
ago DR.. J. 3. Taylor, a wealthy stock
man. Orga nized an expedition to go aft
er the bEffalOes and round them up and
place them in captivity on his ranch in
Tom Green county. Just as all arrange
msnts were completed and the eXpedi-
ton about to start DR.. Taylor met with
an accident which resulted in his death
and the project was dropped. Now that
the herd has been seen and located
again, it is likely that another party
will be made up to capture the animals.

Mr. Isaac Horner, proprietor of the
Burton House, Burton, W. Va, one Of
the most widely known men in the
state. was cured of rheumatism after
three years of suffering. He says: IT
have not sufficient command of Ian
guage to convey any idea of what
suffered. My physicians told me that
nothing could be done for me. and my
friends were fully convinced that moth
ing but death would relieve me of my
suffering. In June, 1894, Mr.. Evans,
then salesman for the Wheeling Drug
Co. recommended Chamberlain's Pain
Balm At this time my fOct and limb
were swollen to more than double their
normal size and it seemed to me my
leg would burst, but soon after began
using the Pain Balm the swelling be-
gan to decrease, the pain to leave, and
now I consider that I am entirely cured.
