 Every one knows that it costs almost S400. 100000 a year to run the United States government ln times of peace and that the department of war and the navy. the Indian and pension bu- reaus absorb the larger part of this amount. but in the course Of years a large number of dependents upon Un- clc Sam's purse have come Into being of which the general public knows It. te.
 Such. for example. are the intcrna- ,lonal bureau for the repression of the African slave trade. located at Brus- Eels. a highly laudable institution. to the expenses of which our government contributes Si00 a year; the interna- tional bureau of weights and measures. also at Brussels. to which S2.2I0 Is con tributed. and the International Geodet- ic association. the expenses of which our Government shares to the extent of cl.500 yearly.

Born in Germany, He Emigrated to

RepOrter-His Career as a Finan-
cier.
NEW YORK, November 12.-Henry
Wizard, the railroad magnate and fin
ancier, died at his summer residence
at Dobbs Ferry early to-day. Mr.. VIII
lard had intended to return to New
York about the middle of last month,
but his condition was then so pre-
carious that his physicians advised him
to remain at his country home until
he should have gained more strength.
A week ago he caught heavy cold
and since then his condition had been
gradually growing worse. Two ply
sicians had been with him constant
ly for a week past.
Henry Willard was born in Heinrich
Hilgard in Speyer, Rhenish Bavaria, on
April II, 1885. His great-uncle, Theo
dore, father of Julius Hilgard, Who be-
came superintendent of the United
States coast survey, led migration
of the family connection to Belleville,
ILL.,, in 1885. His father, Gustav, was
in the judicial service of the iBavarian
government and ended judge of the
Supreme Court at Munich.
Young Hilgard was educated at
Schools in Zweibrucken, Phalsbourg
and Speyer, but in October, 1853, broke
off his university studies and set out
for the United States, intending to join
the colony of his relatives at Belle
vile. His fathers opposition to this
step made him borrow the surname of
a French school mate at Phalsbourg
and he became Henry Willard.
Arriving at Belleville he became a
newspaper reporter and continued in
the profession until 1868. During these
years he served as a legislative CORES
pondent in Indiana and Illinois. a po-
litical reporter, reporting Lincoln
Douglas debates, the Chicago conven-
ton, which nominated Lincoln, the
Lincoln campaign and later as a war
correspondent and an European cor
respondent. The papers he served in
this period were the Cincinnati Com
mercial, the New York Herald. the Chi
oago Tribune and the New York Tri-
bune and part of the time he was at
the head of news bureau at Washing
ton. Early in 1881 Mr. Willard ac-
and the Nation.
In January. 1866, in Boston. he mar
ried Fanny, the only daughter of VIM.
Lloyd Garrison. In 1868 he was chosen
secretary of the newly founded Ameri-
can Social Science Association having
its headquarters in that city and did
not finally relinquish the post till 1871.
1t was in the latter year that while
on visit to Europe Mr.. Willard began
his railroad career. He formed a con-
nection with Frankfort and Berlin
bankers and in 1873 returned to the
United States. buying for the German
bondholders the property of the Ore
gon and California railroad company
and the Oregon steamship company,
being made president in 1875. He acted

Immediately after the close of Revo-
luton, the young Republic commenced
to extend its borders, and Louisiana
was acquired from the French. At that
time discord was rife among the set
tiers and it was to the stirring tones
Of the fife and drum that the CONT
nentals established order. Just at this
time the historical and decidedly ro-
mantle incidents Of "A Ward Of
France" which will be magnifcently
presented at the Opera House on
Thursday night occurred. The efforts
of Lafitte, daring pirate of those
days, to Illustrate the aims of good gov
ernorship makes one of the themes
of the play. A remarkable climax of
the fifth act is brought about by the
efforts of that historical character to
seize New Orleans in the heighth of
brilliant Mardi Gras celebration.

SISTERSVILLE. November 12-The
suit of Barbour vs.. Burton instituted in
the Wood county court few days ago,
mention of which has been made in the
Register, will probably be settled in a.
few days. Nelson Burton brother OF
Miss Mayme Burton and the man who
held the revolver in Barbour's face
while the marriage ceremony was be-
ing performed, was in the city Satur-
day evening and had conference with
IBarbour's relatives and the associate
attorney, F. D. Forney, who lives here.
Burton sees where he made a mistake
in using such forcible methods to make
Barbour marry his sister, and wants TO
settle the case. Barbour was called to
the home of the Burtons by a telegram
stating that Miss Burton was seriously
i'll and when he arrived at the home
the brother flashed gun in his face
and told him he had to get married.
Barbour protested but the objection
did not go and he was compelled TO
hNd his hands up until the ceremony
was performed, in consequence OF which
he sued for $4,000 damages. Should
the matter come to trial in the courts
it is likely it will make as great SEN
sation locally as the Howard Gould
cases has made internationally. There
are quite a number of young, as well
as married men in this city who are
intensely interested IN the case in va
rious ways. Miss Burton was resi-
dent of this city for a couple of years
and she had a dress making establish
ment at the foot of Main street. The
indications now are that the case will
be settled in some manner.

F. NJ. Burr, third assistant superintend-
ent of the railway mail service, had been
through this section for some time in the
interest of the proposed enlargement of the

is proposed to require every mail carrier
in the country to- deliver mail TO those
persons along his route who desire him
to and who put UP boxes for the mail
He finds the people in the country en-
thusiastic over the proposed change which

CLEVELAND, Chic. November H.
Senator Hanna has returned here after
a brief visit to New York. He expects
to remain in this city until Congress

some Importance in the bill. 1t is rea-
son2ble to suppose that . lapse of sew

lures will be the natural result. The

us in considerable difficulty. and the

would most interest himself during the
