THE LATE DUKE OF NORTHUM-
BERLAND

The late Duke of Northumberland
| had, through his father-in-law, an in
terest in Drummond's Bank, being pro-
badly the only ducal banker on record
in this country When, as Lord Lo-
vaine, he married Miss Drummond, she
was not an heiress, but the early deaths
of brothers made her one. The founder
of Drummond's famous bank was a
cadet of the family of Lord Strathallan,
who started in London as the money
agent of the Jacornte party, but be-
fore many years he became banker to
members of the House of Hanover.
He accumulated great fortune. AL
most next to Drummond's for a very
long period was the shop of his fellow
observation-disclosures, the saddler also
scion of a good Scotch house, who was
not improbably aided at his outset by
the big banking firm. Pollock, too,
would have died rich but for credits
given to royalty, In the days when
royalty did not pay its bills, but the
Pollocks made their way by ability, and
Lord Chief Baron, the Chief Justice of
Bombay and the Field Marshal Cover
nor of the Tower were all sons of the
saddler of Charing Cross.
BY far the most interesting seat of
the late Duke of Northumberland from
the purely historical point of view, is
SyoA House, hear Richmond. Up to the
time of the Reformation it was ia
nous Benedictine nunnery, and was
presented by Henry VIII. to the Dukes
of Northumberland. Almost facing it
was Sheen House, which had been
Carthusian priory, and was given to
the Duke of Suffork. father of Lady
Jane Grey 1t was no doubt the prox-
unity of the two houses that led to the
union of Lady Jane Grey with Guilford
Dudley, son of the Duke of NorthurTl-
beTland. 1t was at Lyon house that
this youthful Princess first heard the
news that she had heen raised to
throne which she graced for seven days,
Some few years previously Syon House
had sheltered the Inflated Queen Cath
crime Howard, who was sent there after

NEW YORK TROLLEYs.
One Came Near Ending the Career of
Representative McKeever

Representative E D. McKeever, who
returned a few days ago from an east
ern trip. is 1imping around with a lame
back, the result of trying to knock a
New York trolley car off the track. Mr..
DIcKeever tells about it this way:
Being green and from the country,
OF course had to get in the way and
get run over when I went to the city.
The street cars in New York never
think of stopping for a person to get
on. and the only way to do is to jump.
I jumped ali right, but swung around
against the car in a mighty hard man
ner-sO hard, in fact. that it knocked
the wind out of me for few minutes
Since then have had stitch in my
back. and the doctor tells me I will
have to keep quiet for awhile
People are killed by those New York
street cars every day or two. The street
car company thinks nothing at all of a
human life. If they think a person will
make them trouble they go around and
pay $50 or 500 to straighten the matter
Up, and they would much prefer to do
that than to stop their old street cars
Mr.. McKeever went to New York to
take more dispositions in the telegrap phi
rate cases which Will come up at the
next term of district court. He had
just completed his work when the ac-
cident occurred that laid him out.
True to his legal instincts, Mr.. Nc
Keever began suit for damages
against the street car company before
he started home, which will be pushed
through in the New York courts.

a COWBOY WEDDING.
Swollen Stream Between the Couple
and Minister In Oklahoma

Perry, Ok, Sept. with the minis
ter standing on one side of a swollen
creek, the contracting parties on the
other, and the turbid waters roaring
charging and splashing between them.
the words were spoken that made John
$. Perry and pretty Emma Meyer hus-
band and wife.
Perry is a cowboy and noted for his
daring feats of horsemanship. Emma
Meyer is the daughter of a well known
cattleman. They have loved for years
The novel wedding was not an elope-
ment, nor was it the result of an idea
concOcted for the sake OF nOtOriety. 1t
was simply the outcome of circumstan-
ces over which none of the parties had
control The rising of the creek and the
unwillingness of the lovers to postpone
the nuptials are alone responsible for
this unique wedding, the most remark
able ever known in Oklahoma.
The minister who performed the cere-
mony was Rev. J. CarlOck of Beaver
county, Ok.
The wedding day had been set and
Preacher Carlock invited to be present
The minister lived only across the
creek from the Meyer home, but the big
rain raised the creek so that he could
not cross over. When the appointed
hour for the wedding arrived Perry and
his 6ancee appeared at the creek bank
and the minister performed the cere-
mony from the other side, more than
so yards away. Perry threw the license
and the preachers fee over the swollen
stream tied to q small stone.

Spouse to a call to consider the advis-
ability of organizing political clubs,
to be known as the Young Mems Dem
Ocratic League of Kansas"
F. E. Brown, promoter of the meeting
and chairman of the provisional COM
ing of leaders last night should not be
or to have any official place in the or
ganization, the claim being made that

he Immediately resigned as chairman

J. Bryan, A. NJ. Dockery, W. J. Stone,

LANGTRY,S SUCCESS.
Her New Play Portraying Her Life Is
Winner.

London, Sept. Mrs. Langtry's ap-
pearance at the Haymarket theater last
evening in Sydney Grundy's new COM
edy, The Degenerates,' was a decided
success She daringly portrayed what
are generally understood to be scenes
taken from her own life.
The realism of the initial act is so in
tense, bringing in as it does, all the
scandals associated with her name, that
the unanimous comment at the close
of the performance was lit is good, but
she is awfully brave to do it,
Mrs 1angtry acted better than ever
before, seeming to throw herself thor
Oughly into the spirit of the comedy,
which bristles with epigrams, but is oc-
casiOnally vulgar.
Mr.. Hugo Gerald de Battle, her hus-
band, looked on from a box with the
Duke of Saxe-Coburg and GOtha and
Prince Louis of Battenburg. The
Duches of Marlborough, many other til
tied persons and large number of we'll
known Americans, including Nat Good
win were in the audience.
The Prince of Wales telegraphed
from Marienbad:
My best wishes for a brilliant sue
cess. Booked for a fortnight from to-
day ALBERT"
Charles HawIey, Miss Lily Hamburg
and Miss Lily Grundy were the pick Of
the cast, the last named lady being Mrs.
Langtry's daughter who made her first
stage appearance last night
It is probable that The Degenerate esq
will be taken to the United States in
the course of a few months.

Out of Business.

Columbus, O., Sept. bankruptcy
is staring the municipal government
officials in the face and by October 1,
the city will be compelled to shut up
shop unless some arrangement is made
to secure funds. Even at this time it
is predicted that the deficiencies in all
departments will approximate over
5000 900 at the end of the year. There
now remains s. 297 to run the govern

tor of Public Safety Evans had adopt
ed the policy of shutting up shop as

FRENCH BARBARITIES
In the SOudan Brought to Light
by a Paris Paper.

Paris, Sept. 1.-The Matin today pub
fishes details of the investigation into
the conduct of Captain Voulet and
Captain Chanoine, charged with bar
barous cruelties to the natives in the
French Soudan, which led to the send
ing of an expedition under Lieutenant
Colonel Klobb after them.
According to the paper the two Off
GERS mentioned, who were in command
of a column of troops, began their work
of barbarity by beheading a native who
had declared he did not know a road
about which he was being questioned.
Later it is declared Voulet captured
eighty natives. of whom he killed
twenty OF the women and children, shot
a soldier for wasting ammunition and
burned a village of 10000 inhabitants
Chanoine, it is added, shot two of his
men without trial for not pursuing a
native who had wounded a soldier. He
also burned a village and having lost
six men in an engagement, rushed IN
a village and captured twenty of the
inhabitants, of which number he killed
ten, placing their heads on pickets.
1t is further charged that Chanoine
allowed his men to mUtilate the bodies
of the natives who were killed, by
cutting off their hands.
All these acts according to the Matin,
occurred in January last.

PAID IN GOLD.
From 80 to 90 Per Cent of Revenue In
the Yellow Metal


Washington, Sept. 1.-Today's treas
ury statement shows that the amount
of net gold on hand was S247, $50, COL.
This is the largest amount on hand at
one time in the history of the depart
ment, the next largest amount having
been S246, S73, OPS, on December 81, 1898.
This situation is accounted for by the
fact that during the last two weeks or
more the revenues of the government,
of which from so to 80 per cent are paid
in gold. have largely exceeded the ex-
penditureS.
At New York, the customs receipts,
with the exception of from to 10 per
cent, are being all paid in gold, and at
other important points the excess of
gold has been nearly or quite as large.
The receipts yesterday exceeded the
expenditures by 1.46O, Sos, and for the
month the excess amounts to nearly
81, 500 600. Since the 1st of July, how
ever, a deficit is shown of $4,036. SIS. The
total receipts for the month are $40
97S.173. of which $50. SAG 697 came from
customs, S24, 237, 039 from internal reve-
nue., and S5,194, 436 from miscellaneous
sources.
The expenditures amount to S45, 51S-
600, Of which S14, 9S1 600 was charged to
the war department, 81, 598, 600 to the
navy, $13, 10000 to pensions, and the re-
mainder to civil and miscellaneous, in
tereSt and Indian accounts. For Aug
ust last year, the payments to the war
department amounted to $24, OILS, 934.

BIG CLAINS OF MINERS.
Americans to Ask From England
About $25. 100000 Lost Through
British Columbia Laws.

Washington. Sept. flames IIami1-
ton Lewis, late congressman from
washington, is about to leave for Lon
don to press upon the attention of the
British government the claims of a
large number of American miners ag-
gregating SIS, 600, 600 to S25, 900, 600.
Many Americans, relying upon the
freedom which the laws of British Co
Iumbia seemed to assure, went into
that territory several years ago and en-
gagged in the mining of gold Jealous
of the Americans and their success as
miners, the parliament of British Co
lumbia drove the American miners out
by the passage of a law prohibiting
any alien from owning a mineral claim
in that province. Many Americans were
thus compelled to forfeit valuable pro-
perties.
Mr.. Lewis, who has been in the city
several days, placed their cases before
the state department, which has taken
cognizance of their claims by giving
their representative a letter to Ambas-
sadOr Choate.
If Mr. Lewis fails to get satisfaction
in direct negotiation he will endeavor
to have the state department take up
the claims of the miners and press
them.

WOMAN ITO JAIL.
Railroad President In Contempt of
Court

San Francisco. Sept 1.-The only woman oman
president CT a railway company N the
United States was formally committed 70
the county jail for tive days for contempt
of court by Judge Trout today
The woman in question IS Mrs AnrIe
Kline Rfkert. The railway cOrpOIa alton
of which she is the head is the stockton
and Tuolumne Railway company.
Some time ago Charles Erickson, 4 con-
tractor. sued the company to recover
S. 765 for labor performed and material
furnished When the case came up for
trial on Monday, R S. Clark. secretary
of the company, was ordered to produce
the books of the corporation in court On
the following day he reported that the
president, Mrs. Rikert declined to allow
the books to leave the compauy-S office
The court thereupOn ordered Mrs Ri
kert to bring the books in court without
delay. Mrs. RIkert again ignored the or
der and the court fined her $3.50 for con-
tempt and sentenced her to jail for I'VE
days. Mr.. Clark was fined So with The al
tentative of five days confinement: Sub
sequentIy Judge Trout RENTED the fine
imposed upon Mrs Rikert but the com
mittment to jail was allowed to stand
the same to go go into effect today
The refusal of the company to pay
FCrichsou's claim was based on the fact
that the contract was not authorized by
the board of directors Erickson claimed
that it was and that the books of the com
pany would show it. To determine this
point the books were ordered produced
