HAD MONEY TO GIVE AWAY
Queer Character Arrested Whose
Clothes Were Lined with
Money.

A man about 40 years old, with long.
unllempt hair, peculiar hat with large
hrim. wearing big gloves and somewhat
shabby clothing, stood surrounded by
a Let of workmen in Battery park. New
York, about ten o'clock the other morn
ing. He had large roll of bills, which
he wanted the men TO take from him as
presents The bills were mostly for
$50 and $50. The workmen thought the
man crazy. and some of them called Po-
liceman Egan. of the Church street sta
ton, who placed him under arrest.
When the man was searched in the
station house $685. in bills were found,
as well as check for 1901 so. drawn by
the Montgomery Becker Banking COM
pany of Oregon. Mo-. on the American
Exchange national bank of New York
city in favor of David Frutz. 1t was
dated December /, 1897.
The man would tell nothing about
himself except that he is a farmer and
that he was born in Switzerland. Mag
istrate Crane committed him TO Belle
vue hospital to be examined. When he
was taken 10 the Tombs TO await the
arrival of an ambulance he was again
searched, and in the lining of mis- vest
$3.50 more was found.

WILL VISIT ENGLAND.
EMPEROR william said tO Have De-
cided an = Trip tO severai
Points In the island.

There has been a fiutter OF expecta-
ton among society people in London
over the announcement that Emperor
William of Germany has allowed the
fact 10 become known that he will pay
a visit 10 England next summer. unless
unforeseen circumstances arise. The
better relations between Great Brit
ain and Germany. which have recently
been established. have sponged out TO a
great extent the "anti-kaiser" feeling
which has existed in Great Britain since
the emperor's notorious dispatch TO
President Kruger. of the Transvaal.
congratulating him upon the suppress
sion of the Jamison raid. and there is
little doubt that he will receive well
come rivaling that of his former visits.
On his arrival at London. which is
timed. according TO report. for July
next. Emperor William. who will re-
main until the middle of August, pro-
poses 10 visit few of the leading indus
trial centers and. ii is added, his maj
esty may also cross over TO Ireland.
This imperial visit, coupled with the
fact that the king and queen of Italy
also harbor the idea of coming 10 Eng
land next year. has opened a vista of
brilliant society functions for the Lon
don season of 1899.

CURSE OF AN OLD MAN
Has Pursued Family of suicide
President of Defunct Bank.

A special from Emporia, Kan, says
that it has been recalled there, by the
suicide of ii. {. Cross, president of the
defunct national bank of that place,
that Cross father was, about so years
ago, connected with a bank at Spring
field, H., and that upon the failure of
the institution one of the depositors,
an old man 10y the name of Cary. stood
up in the streets of Springfield and IN
voked a curse upon the house of Cross.
This story is vouched for by George
Plumb, brother of former United States
Senator Plumb, to whom it was re-
lated by the son of the old man who
delivered the curse.
Whatever the merit of this reminis-
cence, it is true that the elder Cross
suffered many reverses and that the
chief legacy TO his son was lot of
debts, the efforts to discharge which
involved the younger Cross in specula-
tons and led to his tragic death.

WE'LL RID OF THEM.
Spaniard Declare His Country Better
Off Without Her Colonies.
Interview with n Member of Barce-
Iona Firm-Ssys Tie Does Not Envy
United states Possession
of Philippines.

Louis Esteve, a member of a promi-
nent firm of grain and cotton importers
of Barcelona. Spain. was visitor at the
ST. Louis merchants exchange the
other day. He dwelt Interestingly on
the subject of the late war as viewed
from a Spanish standpoint.
In the course of his remarks he said:
~ was in Barcelona. which is one of the
leading coast cities of Spain. during
the entire war and had good oppor-
tunity TO study the situation in my
country.
~ am firmly convinced that the loss
of our colonies will in the end prove n
blessing 10 Spain, although temporarily
il will prove a hardship TO many inter
ests.
with a good government Spain will
now be more prosperous than for
many years, as her colonies have been
more of a burden than blessing for
some time and the people will be forced
to develop the vast resources at home
which have been neglected in the en-
deavor to make as much as possible out
of the colonies.
1.-THE Philippines were really not
much of a benefit to Spain, as the COM
merce of those islands was controlled
by England and Germany, and SPANS
business with the islands was compare
lively light; how light you may judge
from the fact that there was only one
steamer a month between Spain and
Manila. These islands were really a
burden, and / do not envy the United
States for the acquisition of them.
"Of course we did a large business in
Cuba. but of late years there has been
so much trouble with that island that
the expenses ate revenues. and think
we are well rid of il also.
americans living in Spain were in
no more danger than Spaniards in the
United States. and / know of two Amer
lean families which resided in Bar
celona during the entire war and suf-
fered no inconvenience. One of these
families, whose name is Montgomery
! am well acquainted with, and ! know
that they were always treated with re-
spect.
81 am afraid that the United States
will have considerable trouble with the
Philippines and will rue the day when
they took them away from Spain; but
believe that the relations between the
Spanish people and America will in a
short time be more friendly"

COST OF THE ARMY.
Signing of Peace Treaty Reduces the
Pay of the Soldiers 20
Per Cent.

With the signing of the treaty of
peace the government saves a large
amount of money in the pay of the SOL
diers. In the bill authorizing the presi-
dent to call for volunteers a clause was
inserted directing the payment of the
soldiers of 20 per cent. increase during
the period of the war. The pay of pri-
vate in time of peace is $13 per month,
but during hostilities it is $500; that
of a first sergeant is $25 during peace
and $50 during the war. 1t is estimated
that the government will save about
100000 each month from this time for
ward; but, at the same time, it is be-
lieved that the cutting off of this extra
allowance will have a bad effect upon
enlistments for the regular army,
when congress authorizes its increase
to at least 1O0,O 900 men. The amount re-
quired to pay the enlisted men of the
army on it's present footing Is about
$1,000 900 per month, and with this 90
per cent. reduction and the mastering
out of five or six regiments this expense
will be reduced to about So, 600, 900.

lean woman who ever married a king,

marry him. and she consented. King
Ferdinand's son, King Luis, was then

ago, when King Ferdinand died. Ever
s.nce that time the countess has lived
in retirement at her palace. She is

Some months ago German farmer
by the name of Delay was found in his
cottage at Rochester, n. Y, with dag

lieved that he had committed suicide,
owing TO love affair. Since his death
the cottage has remained empty.
The other night farmer having oc-
caHon TO pass by the unoccupied cot
tage was startled TO see a pale blue
flame within. and his teeth chartered as
he heard cries and groans proceeding
from within. Upon arriving at his
home he thought this might have been
caused by Inischievous boys, and re-
solved TO investigate. Next evening.
accompanied by his hired man, bulldog
and shotgun, he took a position inside
the house and awaited developments.
Just as the town clock struck the mid
night hour the dog commenced TO act
in an unaccountable manner, and final
ly, giving vent to a long, dismal howl,

The SCATTERING of glass was followed
by a series of cries and groans that
caused the hair of both men 10 stand on
end Suddenly the same pale blue light
filled the room and a shadowy figure
glided noiselessly past the two men.
Then there was scream, which ended
in a choking, gurglng cry. The party

FLOCK Is SHOCKED.
Rev. Edward L. Stoddard Proposes
to Start Boxing Class.
Engages a skilled Boxer believes
the Boys at His Compensation
should Learn Ia Property be-
fend Themselves.

BY announcing that he intended TO
start a boxing class as new attraction
for his Young Peoples institute Rev
Edward L. Stoddard rector of ST. Johns
Episcopal church gave some of Jersey
City's pious people a shock similar to
that which he subjected them about Il
year ago by establishing a dancing
class in the same connection.
r Under the supervision of the vicar,
Rev. e. S. Forbes, who has charge of the
institute, the boxing class will meet
every Friday night
John A. Kirk. a skilled boxer of Jer-
sey City. " j., will teach young men Of
ST. Johns church the manly art of self
defense on their payment of ten cents
night each
Mr. Forbes says the training will en-
able the boys 10 take care of themselves
when an emergency arises He does not
believe that ii will make them fond of
prize fights. but will. on the contrary.
make them abhor ring contests.
Mr. Kirk said he would not allow
smuggling" and that there would be no
public exhibitions by members of the
class
In speaking of the matter Mr.. stod-
dard said:
II see no reason why the boys should
not learn TO box II is no worse than
dancing When was at college ! boxed
and fenced and used the broadsword,
and ! see no reason why other boys
should not do the same. Boxing gloves
are no new things with us. A set of
gloves was almost the first thing pur-
chased for the gymnasium ten years
ago. We have decided TO have them
properly instructed in the art of hand
ling their fists believe that il makes
a fellow manly 10 know how to use his
fists when the occasion arises. i would
hate to think of any of the members of
our boxing class graduating into the

them will"
