fly all night, so that when the sun
forced it's way at last through the hang
ing clouds, the whole city lay covered
with smooth, white mantle. Two very
different little boys stood at the win
dows of two very different homes, and
looking out upon the snow with a very
different feeling in their hearts.
81 tell you what, mother" said Con-
nor Mcclure, there is a stroke of luck!
No school to-day, and the snow at least
eight inches deep. How many quarters
do you suppose I'll make shovelin g
pavements between this and dinner
time?''
''Indeed and it's the money that will
be welcome" said his mother, looking
up from the stove, where their modest
breakfast was in preparation. "But it's
poor way to be spending your holiday,
Con-working harder than if you were
at school,
bah! that's nothing. Shoveling
snow is as good as play" answered
Common, who, to tell the truth, was not
very fond of his books. "Give me my
cup of coffee, mother, and I'm off. It's
rich we're going to be"this day, and me
with a new wooden shovel that will
make the snow fly quicker than pow
DER
"Good-by, then, and good luck to
,you," said his mother, as the little fig
ure trudged gayly off, with the new
shovel resting on one shoulder and his
broom on the other. cts the jewel Of
a boy you are, anyway, and your fath-
er's very self over again, ,more's my

And the widow turned back cheerful
1y to her own hard days work.
Dear me!' sighed Freddy Lester, as
he stood looking disconsolately out of
his nursery window. '"Too much
snow to go out, and nothing to do at
home. I don't see what's. the use of
having holiday if one canst:have lit
tie fun on it,: ~
"Why, Master Fred, I am ashamed of
you'll" said his nurse. "Haven't you
toys, and books, and games, and a dear
little sister to play with? And isn't
your father going to take you out
,sleighing this very afternoon, if you are
a good boy?"
'But don't suppose will be good"
replied Fred, in an injured tone. "How
is a boy to be good when there is moth
ing to amuse him? And I don't want to
play with Nell. She is only a baby, and
silly one at that. Didn't she drop my
best agate out of the window yesterday
and break it all to bits? I wish I could

ROBERT BONNER DEAD
AGED AND wELL-KNOWN PUBLISHER
OF THE NEW YORK LEDGER,
And Owner of Dexter, Maud 5. and
Other Famous Horses-Had Been
HI for Several Months.

NEW YORK July 6.-Robert Bonner, pub
Usher of the New York Ledger, and owner
of famous horses, died at his home in this
city at 7:30 tonight. Mr.. Bonner had been
Ill some months. but was able to be about
until about ten days ago. Death was due to
a general breaking down of the system.
There were with him when he died Robert
Edwin Bonner and Francis Bonner, his
sons; Mr.. and Mrs Herbert Bonner, son
and daughter-n-law, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Francis Ford, daughter and son-in-law.
Mr.. Bonner enjoyed remarkable health
until year ago. when his lifelong friend,
Rev. DR.. John Hall. died. A second shock
to him was the death of his son, A. A. Bon
ner. on Dec. n last After this Mr.. Bon
ner's temperament changed completely. He
made fewer trips to his magnificent farm
near Tarrytown and contented himself with
a short drive daily. A week ago Tuesday
he took his last drive. On his return home
his case was so serious that several doc
tors were called in consultation with his
family physician, DR.. Mum. He became
much worse on the following day. and since
then took no nourishment. He lost con-
sciousness early this morning and remained
in that condition to the end.
fNopeTl DonHer Was OOrn near lonuoH-
derry, Ireland. April Is. 1894. His parents
were Scotch-Irish Presbyterians. He came
to the United States and learned the print
ers' trade. In 1889 he was employed In the
office of the Hartford Courant, where he
gained the reputation of being the most
rapid composition in Connecticut. In 1874 he
moved to New York and in 1851 he purchased
the Ledger, at that time an Insignificant
sheet BY printing the most popular class
of interesting stories he gave the paper a
wide circulation, which was further ex-
tended by the contributions of Fanny Fern,
Edward Everett, Henry Ward Beecher and
other eminent authors and clergymen. He
made large gifts of money to Princeton Col
lege and to various charities. To crafty his
taste for fast horses he purchased several
OF the most celebrated trotters in the world
but he withdrew them from the race course.
Among his horses were Peerless, Dexter
and Maud S.

HAVANA, July Sowing to the laxity
in dress and department on the part Of some
of the troops General Ludlow has issued
orders to the commanders to see 20 it that
no soldier leaves command unless in prop
er uniform and in a tidy and soldierlike
condition. Any found violating the rule will
be punished. The order continues as fol-
lows: 1T is desirable to instill In the minds
of the enlisted men such a respect for them
selves and their profession as will stimu-
late them to maintain a high standard of
behavior and will enable them to refrain
from any Get prejudicial or disparaging to
the service they represent"
General Ludlow has issued orders allow
ing special passes to enlisted men who may
desire to attend entertainments The hold
ers will be allowed to attend under charge
of noncommissioned officers, who will be
responsible for their behavior, the passes
expiring at midnight.
Governor General Brooke has called on
the provincial governors to nominate suit
able men to take the census in the various
provinces and to telegraph the names TO
division headquarters as soon as possible.
He says there will be no radical change
in the plans for census taking which he out
lined last March.
Collector Bliss has formed a civil-service
board, consisting of himself, the deputy col
lector, the controller and the chief inspec-
tor. Hereafter all applicants must pass an
examination under rules prepared by the
board before securing a position in the Gus
toms service.

NO FUSION NEXT YEAR
POPUILSTS WILL NO LONGER BE
EARS TO DEMOCRATIC DONKEY.


TERRE HAUTE, Ind, July 6-Mortimer
c. Rankin chairman of the Populst ma
tional committee said this afternoon that
the Populists would not form fusion with
the Democrats for the coming campaign,
and that the Populists will hold their MT
tional convention one month prior to that
of either the Democrats or Republicans.
The Populists will prepare their own plat
form and nominate their own candidates.
The time for the national convention is
not yet determined and cannot be until one
of the big political parties names the date
for its convention. Mr.. Rankin stated that
he was not willing to say much concerning
the party views for the approaching cam
paign, as 1t had been the desire of the GEN.
trail committee to leave the other two po-
litical parties i'm the dark as regards Its
movements and plans He admitted that
the party is split up in its views but IL
was hoped that all would get together be-
fore the contention meets.
The Populists of Nebraska, Mr.. Rankin
said, are in favor of fusion should they be
allowed to name the nominee for Vice Pres
ident on the Democratic ticket. While this
might be allowed in Nebraska the other
States will not submit TO such an action.
In a word the Populists are sick and tired
OF fusion, for they have found that when
ever they enter into a fusion with the Dem
ocrats the latter receive the benefit and the
Populists are used merely to fill up. Mr..
Rankin stated that the party was split on
the matter of holding the Philippine islands
and in this connection. he said, the object
OF the government should be to tear down
all the monarchies possible and construct on
the debris the foundation of republics. The
more republics the better. He said il the
Democrats go to work to fight the policy
of the administration in holding the Phil
ippines until a suitable form of government
has been formed they will find themselves
showed under far worse than they were
IN 1856.
A secret council of representative Popu-
lists of the Ninth and Tenth districts was
held in Frankfort Wednesday. IT was the
unanimous expression that no more
fusion would go whether Bryan Is the
nominee of the Democracy or not.
