Tricks OF the Types.

A writer in Macmillan IS Magazine
offers in an article on printers er-
rors some superb mixes, as blend
ings of alien paragraphs are called.
We borrow a couple. The first owes
its character to an interpolated line
from report of a public meeting:
"On the Sd inst, at ELLINGTON,
the wife of j. S. Terry, schoolmas-
ter, of son. He spoke indistinct-
ly, but was understood to say that
on the Sd inst, at Ripon, the wife
of Joseph Landseer, tailor, of a

in slices and cook for several hours. /"

England uses American paper in
her public Offices, finding it of the
best quality made. Its DEGREES, be-
fore which foreign nations and
tribes all around the world bow, are
inscribed over the watermark of the
eagle instead of the lion, which
ought to stifen and re-enforce their
validity. It has never been remarked
of Great Britain that she didn't
know good thing when she saw it,
or that she did not promptly reach

Culture Of Licorice.

Surely, in some part of our great
country, licorice would be found to
thrive. And yet, SO far as has come
to the knowledge of .Meehan's
Monthly, all attempts to cultivate it
have failed. The difficulty seems
to be with the summer sun. Leaves
blight and turn brown as soon as
the weather becomes warm, but this
would probably not be the case in
submountainous regions. When it
is remembered that nearly 100000
tons of these roots come into the
United States every year from the
old world its culture here is surely
a prize worth contending or.-Mee

Jack Created Small Riot on Oak Street
 Last Night.

There was an exciting time in the vicinity of Oak and Broad streets about s o'clock last night. About that time a sailor from the CatskilI named H. J. Noonan, living at 22 York street, this city, who is here on 8 furlough. went through Oak street hitting almost every one that came within his reach. He was intoxicated The fellow is strong and muscular, and when Patrol man Richard Moore interfered with him there began terrific struggle. Patrol man Cowel of the Howard avenue pre- cinct came to Moore's assistance. The struggling caused crowd of about a, thousand persons to collect and they plainly sympathized with the sailor The fight continued for some time and the patrolmen with difficulty overpow- cred Noonan and handcuffed him. Dur ing the melee his uniform was badly torn. Patrolman Cowell was forced to use his club and struck Noonan once This enraged the crowd, and after the prisoner had been taken away in the patrol wagon about half of the crowd followed Patrolman Cowell to Lafay- cite street, yelling everything at him and threatening his life They became so enraged that the patrolman was compelled to whistle for assistance. Pa trolmen Moore and Cooney responded and with much difficulty caused the crowd to disperse.

Free Silver Agitator Not Enamored of
 Camp Life.

Kansas City, Sept. 20.-A special to the Star from Jacksonville, Fla, says: Colonel William Jennings Bryan of the Third Nebraska volunteers will shortly resign his commission in the United States army and resume the discussion of public questions. This statement is not made upon the authority of Colonel Bryan, however. When asked to ex- press himself on questions of public in terest, he said: You can -say that refuse to discuss any matters connect- ed with politics. the army or myself. except that see no reason to change the views in regard to the expanding the territorysof the United States ex- pressed in my. Omaha speech.' Colo mel Bryan added: You might also say that am not so enamored of camp life that would at the close of the war ap ply for a commission in the regular army"
 Colonel Bryan is looking and feeling well, but is undoubtedly suffering from the restraint he has placed over him. self. Tiff you knew,'' he said, what it cost me to keep still when there is so much to say about things of import ance to the people you would appreciate the strength of my will.'' When asked if he would talk freely on the subject when he has once broke loose he said: You know how it is when dam breaks. There is no telling when the flood stops" When his candidacy for the presidential nomination was suggested he said: "A man may say things and express opinions upon public affairs which will not meet public approval. Those results are not always favorable to himself. An idea is everything to me, far more than any office" Colonel Bryan refused to name the date when he would resign his commission.

formed him he had come to make an inspection of the institution and to pay his respects to the patients and those in charge. Major Davis, the attend ants and patients alike were surprised and gratified at the honor done them by the president and he was afforded every opportunity to make a thorough exam nation.
 The president passed an hour and 8 half in the various wards and depart ments of the institution, going from cot to cot and extending a personal greet ing to each one of nearly 400 patients. Major Davis presented each one of the assistant surgeons and subsequently the president talked informally to the convalescent patients. The president carefully inspected the kitchen and ex- amined the food supplied to the hospi- tai patients. At the conclusion of his examination he expressed himself as we'll satisfied with the arrangements made for caring for the sick, but de- sired it to be understood that the pa- tients were to want for nothing that would improve their condition or ren- der them more comfortable. The pa tients were particularly pleased at the visit of the president and Major Davis said, as the party left the hospital, that 1t would do more to cheer up the sick men than any quantity of medicine.

THE BRIDGEP0RT MYSTERY.
An Arrest May be Made Before the End
 of the Week.

of the Week.
 Bridgeport, Sept. 20-Matters with the police department with reference to the murder case in this city appear to be almost at a standstill, but Coroner Doten, who is aware of every move ment of the police in the affair is said to have made the statement that im- portant developments, with possibly an arrest might be expected within a few days at least probably before the end of the week. It was further intimated that the identification of the woman might not be essential to the prosecu- tion of the case as the web of guilt would be so completely woven about the male principal in the crime that the identity of the victim would be estab- lished in this manner. Tonight State Attorney Samuel Fessenden, who has from the first taken the ground that it might have been a case of death from Intentionally administering poison in stead of septicemia interviewed Medical Examiner Downes on the matter, but the latter could give him no informa tion along those lines as the stomach had been removed before the corpse was found, therefore it was impossible to analyze it's contents.

CAPT. CoW1Es MAY HATE 4 c1UE.
The Local Detectives Trying to Unravet
 the Mystery.

Captain Cowles and Detective Henry Donnelly of the local detectve bureau were working all day yesterday on two clues which they thought might prob ably lead to the Identification of the victim of the mysterious Bridgeport murder. It seems that among the large number of missing girls reported to the detectives, these two seemed to answer especially closely the description of the murdered woman. The detectives therefore began to look them up, Don- nelly taking one case and Captain Cowles the other The names of the two girls could not be learned last night. Donnelly stated that he was al- most positive that the girl whom he was looking for was in New Jersey, and hence not the Bridgeport victim. He said he had seen letter written by the girl from New Jersey on August 20. The home of this girl was in West Iia- ven.
 Captain Cowles, however, had not yet found the girl for whom he was looking last night, and thought it very probable that she might prove to be the mur-
 
 girls name, but said that she formerly lived in New Haven. although she had not lived here recently. Captain Cowles will go to Bridgeport this morn ing to further follow up the clue.
 Since the murder has been so much talked about, the local detective bureau has received daily numerous notices of missing, unfortunate girls whose homes were in this city. In some of these in- formation Is given to the detectives by persons who call at the office and by notes, of which large number are re- ceived every day, some containing sug- gestions as to how the detectives should proceed in order to at once solve tho mystery.
 Captain Cowles said last night that several parents had fearfully confided to him their suspicious that the mur- dered woman was their missing daugh- ters, but begged him to keep the names out of the papers. He says that when looking up one missing girl a few days ago, he called upon her parents and from what he heard there he was con- fident that even had the missing woman been their daughter they would not have told him so and would have made no attempt to identify her, owing to their dread of family disgrace. He says that he thinks this is true of many families and that for this reason per haps the remains have not been iden- tified to the police, even if some one has recognized them.

The men were ar rested last evening during the riotous scenes that occurred in connection with the controversy between the street rail- way company and their employees, over the question of giving bonds by the latter. The men who quit work owing to their opposition to the bonds appear to be backed by public sentiment and they are determined not to submit to the bond system.
