ALL LONDON PARCHED.
Worst Drought in Seventy Years in
the Big City.

London and the whole south of" Eng
land are still sizzling under merciless,
untempered tropical sun. The present
drought has been unequaled for seventy
years.
But for the exceptional rainfall in the
winter and spring the effects would be
far more serious. AS it is, the country
is no longer green, but parched and yell
low.
Wells are giving out in the villages de-
pendent on them. The Thames is lower
than for so years and cannot much long
er furnish sufficient supplies for the
London water companies, while the Lea,
which runs through the most populous
and poorest district in the East End, is
described by the sanitary officers as
merely an open sewer.
The water companies are evincing
their concern about supplies by institut-
ing precautions on trivial charges Of
waste. London, in short, has been
brought face to face with most serious
situation owing TO the greed and tyranny
of the water monopolies, which for years
have reaped rich rewards.

time FOR TAX COLLECTIONS.
PROPOSITION MADE TO CHANGE Ill
10 FEBRUARY.
Tax Commissions Recommendation on
That Line viii Not Meet With Fa-
yOr. Would IncOnve fence
the Farmers.
the Farmers

Amonp the recommendations to be
made to the next general assembly by
the tax commission, it is said, will be
one to change the time tor the payment
of taxes to February, so that the state
would have at the beginning of the year
the revenue with which to run the sew
eral departments for the ensuing year.
1t would be quite desirable to do this
if it were practicable, but the business
men and farmers would be Out to great
inconvenience Under this new order of
things, and the business interests of the
state are not viewing this contemplated
change with much favor.
There are some cogent arguments be-
ing urged against the innovation. The
farmers find it hard enough matter to
settle their tax accounts in the fall, when
their crops are marketed and they have
more money than at any other season.
AS rule they are very short of money
along in February, when they are begin
ming operations for the new year, ano
the prediction is made that scarcely 5
per cent. of them would pay their taxes
and their property would be sold under
the operations of the tax Law. AS they
would have twelve months in which TO
redeem it the state would be none the
gamer since it would be fall then as we'll
as now before the money came into the
treasury.
Aside from this, it is pointed out by
state official that the change would work
a hardship upon the merchants, manu-
tacturers and business interests general
~ to make them pay this years taxes
this fall and those for next year right on
top of it within two months.
Another objection raised TO the pro-
posed change is that it would come be-
tween the fall and spring seasons at
time when the merchants stocks are
lowest, and that the state would lose
large amount of revenue on that account.
When Governor Gamblers attention
was called to the matter and he was
asked to give an expression on the SUBJ
iect he said the matter would probably
come before aim for dnal action, and it
would, therefore, be improper for him to
give an expression Of his views before
hand.

License and Ceremony Free at the Macca-
bees Festival.
There was al unusual degree of ex-
citement in the crowds around the
Graham and Norton docks IN Chicago
early one morning last week, and an
eager throng lined up as near the
gangplank as possible, watching the
long line of passengers hurrying into
the recess of the steamer City OF Mill
Waukee.
Over at St. Joseph, Mich. the Mac
cabees gave a grand outdoor festival,
and, as special feature, announced
that all couples who would be publicly
married under their auspices would be
gwen license and ceremony free. Fiji
ty-one couples responded to the invita-
tion to rush into matrimouy at reduced
rates.
Since the new marriage law in Wis
,consin STIMULATING that couple cannot
get married until three days after the
license is taken out Chicago couples
go to Michigan, and st. Joseph / is the
favorite resort.

AN AMERICAN GIRLS PALACE.
jaw Gould's Millions Are Being Lavishly
Spent In France.

Parisians had heard of the late Jay
Gould and his high-piled millions OF
money, but for the past two years they
have been receiving a special object les
son on the power of wealth in new world
hands, in the effort OF his daughter, the
Countess de Castel(ane, to reproduce in
Paris the palace of the Grand Trianon las
built by the French kings at Versailles
more than two centuries ago. Three
quarters of an acre of land was bought
at the intersection of the Avenue bu Bots
lie Boulogne and the Avenue Malakoff
at an expense of close to a million doll
lars, this being the most Costly resideu>
tial site in Paris.
Public interest has been made keen
by the announcement that while the ex.
terror would hold true to the fourteenth
century the interior was to be blending
of the fourteenth and fifteenth periods,
if the Gould millions and the cunning
of the French architects could compass
this unique desire. The revival of two
historic periods in French architectural
history was so remarkable an undertake
ing that, from it's beginning, the pro-
gress of this house has been followed
with such wide interest as has been
given to few purely private building
projects. In May the family was occu>
plying the central portion, but the int.
rior decoration of the two. wings proba-
bly, cannot be completed in less than
two years more. When it became
known such a mansion was to be at
tempted many of the French said it
would take twenty years to build and
furnish it with art treasures, but west
ern enterprise and local ingenuity prom
Use its completion in fifth of the time.
The property will then have cost So
$1,000 francs, or 100000
Both the count and the countess are
collectors of rare art works and brie-a-
brac, and in single year, it is said, they
expended 100000 in purchases for
their new residence When the matter
Of ceilings was being arranged for

the splendid palace of Verona. They
did not want the palace, but coveted the
eleven ceilings it contained, from the
brush of Tiepolo, and these could be Sc
cured only by the purchase OF the old
Woman's Home Companion.

A lazy liver may be only tired liver,

the back of lazy man. But it would be
a savage as we'll as stupid thing to beat
a weary man or a starving man because

tagging liver it is great mistake to lash
it with drastic drugs. In 90 cases out of
a 100 torpid or sluggish liver is but a
symptom of an ill-nourished body, whose
organs are weary with overwork. Let
vour liver alone. Start with the stomach

Rapid Improvements.

Rapid Improvements.
The Shaker colony Of Glynn and

Glynn, and at White Oak in Camden
Mr.. Theodore Clark of Brunswick is
experimenting for the Shakers. and
has Just landed nine head of bloc led
stock at White Oak for brOoding pur-
poses.
The Shakers are developing all their
property, and have expended recently
about $4,000 They bought the town
of White Oak entire, and about twenty
of the colony now occupy the houel
building in that place. With the COM
ing of winter it IS their intention to
bring down more of their number
from Union Village, o., and, looking
to that end, the contract has just been
let for large two-story building at
White Oak to accommodate them. A
number of acres have also just been
enclosed for vineyard purposes. and
the Shakers intend to go into the cult
ure of grapes extensively.
The colony is worth over $1,000,
and its. development of that section of
Georgia means great deal. The bus
mess of the Shakers will principally
be rice planting, stock raising and
grape culture. They now have under
cultivation in Glynn county several
hundred acres of reclaimed rice lands.

BREAKING UP THE KAFFIR KRAAL
London Women Rave Over Disgusting
African Savages.

African Savages.
The Kafir Kraal, which has been CIV
ing enjoyment to the people of London,
has been broken up under suggestive
circumstances.
This enterprise, being an African copy
of the wild west Indian show, has been
immensely popular. The most savage
and disgusting types of negroes with all
the adornments of savagery were chosen
for the display, and, strangelto sag, the
women of London f1Ocked in thousands
to the place, made friends With the in
mates and exhibited every sign of infat-
aution. The craze was brought TO a
crisis by the daughter of wealthy fam
ily stealing out one of the principal
characters, and, evadng pursuit, sue
ceeding in having private marriage per-
formed. The infatuated woman has since
been a good subject for the newspaper
interviewers, to whom she has poured
forth such tales of love as would fatigue
the most errahc novelist.
This incident seemed to awaken many
people to the disgusting character OF the
performances at the Kraal, and its pro-
prietors, among whom were many OF the
pobility, were appealed to in the name
of decency to forego their investments
and TO close it up. This they have reluct-
antly done, but not until a shameless
scene was witnessed in which it is said
that five or six hundred women fought
for entrance into the den, and hurled
lmprecations upon the heads of the man.
ayers tor refusing to open the doors.
Lamentable AS this story is it shows
that Englishmen who are over-solicitous
about affairs in the southern states of the
American union have reforms at home
which should receive their first atten,
ton. In country where such scenes
could take place the home mission board
should be given the right of way.

SENSATIONAL STORY DENIED.
Gustav Kunst Not the Bearer of Sa-

The sensational story published in an
evening paper regarding Gustav Kunst is
pronounced absolutely and unqualifiedly
false by that gentleman. In the story Mr.
Kunst was made out to be a secret ennis
sary of the German Government travelling
incog and the bearer of official dispatches
from Samoa for his home country He
arrived on the steamer Rio de Janeiro
yesterday morning and was astounded
when he read the tale of his supposed
mysterious actions in the afternoon.
When seen at the hotel last evening he
Indignantly denied the allegations con-
tanned therein. When asked to give a
statement he willingly acquiesced and
said:
THE published account regarding my
self is certainly untrue and must have
originated in the fanciful imagination of
some reporter. l was not in any way con-
nected with the affairs in Samoa. In fact,
| have not been there for three months.
1 am retired merchant of Hamburg and
went to Honolulu, where [ bought an in
terest in the firm of Carter & Co.
Il, as well as the other passengers on
the Rio did not know anything about the
Samoan trouble until we arrived here, and
l. was surprised to hear that my home in
Vailima, which I recently purchased, had
been blown up by the British gunboats.
l made no efforts to conceal my identity
and every one on board knew me and
was acquainted to some extent with my
affairs. l am on my way to Hamburg to
put my interests in such a shape that I
may return to Honolulu.

A BABY PRISONER.
Judge Conlan Severely Reprimands
Secretary Wadham of the Eu-
reka Society,"

Mrs. Edna Aubray and her two-year-
old baby girl appeared before Judge Con-
Ian yesterday, the mother to answer
charge of vagrancy preferred against her
by her father, Captain Van Pelt, and the
child to be sent to a public institution
The Judge ordered the name of the
child to be stricken from the calendar
and characterized her arrest by Secretary
Wadham of the Eureka Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Children as a
gross outrage. 1t would remain an indeli-
Bile stain upon an innocent child to have
her name upon the prison register. and
he was amazed and indignant at any Of
ficer being guilty of such an outrageous
act.
Mrs. Aubrays case was continued till
tomorrow. She is out on her own recog-
nizance, and Wadham wanted Prosecut-
ing Attorney Lowe to get the Judge to
order her into custody but he indignant
ly refused. The case will probably be
transferred to another court, as Judge
Conlan is acquainted with the defend
ant.
Both Mrs. Aubray's husband and her
father were in court. Mrs. Aubray is
indignant at her arrest by Wadham
which she says is persecution and she
threatens to horsewhip him. Wadham de-
fends his conduct by declaring that he
knows the woman is not fit person to
have the custody of the child and that
he was granted letters of guardianship
over the youngster last December.
