MRS. CHARLOTTE L. STRONG.
(Communicated.) )

The subject of this sketch was called to her rest on Tuesday, July 11th after a brief illness, which she bore with Christian foTtitude. Mrs. Strong was born in Derby, Conn.,, on June IS, 1883, and when she passed into eternal life was @ little over seventy-two years of age. Her life was almost wholly spent in this city. Being an experienced nurse by profession and endowed with that rare attribute, kind and sympa- thetic nature, she was eagerly sought after by those in aff1iction. Possessing a bright and sunny disposition, supple mented by a devoted Christian life, it seemed her mission to soothe and com- fort many weary ones of earth. To strengthen the faith of the wavering and to point out to those in sorrow the inestimable privilege Of trusting in a higher power for help in time of need, was the sacred purpose of her life work. Aunt Lottie," as she was lov- ingly called by those who knew her best, was indeed trusted by an heaven ly mission, which she fulfilled with dig nifty and honor to her savior, and with a simple child-like faith in the revealed promise of God. Indefatigable in her sphere of usefulness, it can truly be said Of her "She went about doing good" She was a devoted member of the First Baptist church for many years, and when circumstances permit ted was in her accustomed place in the sanctuary.
 While she has departed this life, and gone from her earthly labors, her in- fluence has by no means ended. The power of her saintly life, will ever be an incentive to holy living and a guide to those who knew her best.
 ''She has gone to the home of her rest,
 Where heaven entrances her sight; She mingles in joy with the blest,
 Arrayed as an angel of light.''

DARE DEVIL CASTELLANE.
His Brother Takes His Place TempOra-
 riIy Owing to Injuries.

Mile. Lunnette, the beautiful French college girl, who this wsek is making the slide for life from the top of the great White City electric tower to the top of the chutes, hanging by her hair, is creating eVsn more of wonder than last week when she made the slide clinging iby her teeth. In the afternoon Mile. Lunnette maksS the slide at 5 o'clock and in. the evening at g, and great throngs pour through the gates to see her. It is a remarkable act by a remarkably beautiful girl of unusual refinement.
 Dare Devil Castellane, who fell dur ing his perilous ride Monday afternoon, was somewhat more injured than first supposed and did not ride yesterday. His place was ta!Een by his brother, whom many believe to be almost as clever as Castellane himself in some respects. In simple words, the looping the loop and double gap is feat re- qutring superhunlan skill, courage and daring, and Castellane is the only man in the world who does it and each time he takes his life in his hands. Castel- lanes, brother do.s not do this, but makes flying leaps on the bicycle of two great gaps, which is also a daring performance.
 The perch balancing act of Delnore and Oneida attracts more and more attention. Mile Oneida, with her beau- tiful face and figure and pleasant ways, has made a host of personal friends during her engagement who never miss a performance. A feature is her many pretty costumes. She wears a different one every day.

 Crop Report Which Was AnxiOusly
 Awaited Shows Up We'll.
 There was a change in the spirit of the stock market yesterday, a break of considerable proportions occurring.
 A good deal os liquidation has occur red in the past week of speculativeIy held stocks.
 The financial situation is yet without material change.
 Near the close Steel preferred rallied about point from the low.
 There was no effort at support. Stocks were allowed to take their own way.
 Union Pacific directors met-that is, some of them did. but adjourned with out taking action as to the dividend, hence disappointment in Wall street, which looked for an increase of the dividend yesterday. Many spectators hastened to get out of the stock. and Union Pacific suffered the most of any of the railroad issues in the break that ensued.
 The street was anxious also as to whether Baltimore and Ohio is going to increase its dividend or not. Some ru- mors were given out that both Balti- more and Ohio and Union Pacific will increase their dividends on the common stock.
 As was expected the new Japanese loan was over-subscribed but Japan was criticized by the street for putting out this new loan and piling up it's in- debtedness.
 A weak London market started the selling.
 Gates and J. H. Moore were reported to be very bullish yet, selling stocks in large valulne.
 New York Centrals gross increase for June was $5O2, ,OOO-a good showing.
 The government crop report, which was not given out until last evening is not at all discouraging and is as fol- | lows:

SEQUEL TO A MURDER.
Unusual Closing Up of New York
Public Resnrts

NEW YORK, April 22.-The sensational
aHray IN resort known as "Toby's place"
ABOUT week ago, in which one man was
Killed and two others severely stabbed To-
day resulted in an almost unprecedented
condition in the Tenderloin During the
hours between 1 and 5 o'clock this morn
ing, the period prescribed in the excise law.
not light was burning in any of the hun
dreds OF places peculiar to that district.
Saloons and Raines law hotels rathske,-
lers and other similar resorts which for
years had not closed their side doors day
or night. had suspended operations COM
pieteiy: IN every front window was a
that the place had been CLOSED on account
of Good Friday" DEVELOPMENTS of fhe
past week, however, indicate that the holy
day was taken as an excuse rather than
as reason by the proprietors of these re-
sorts.
The murder in "Tobys place" was of
lie attention. The investigation of the r.
fair, which has been attended by several
sensational incidents, only served to throw
more publicity on the conditions which
have prevailed in that quarter
Finally Police Commissioner McAdoo
gave his personal attention to the Tender
loin, and after tour of the district issued
drastic orders to have the place Cleaned
up" Last night was chosen as the time
for general movement by the police IT
seems, however, that the order was antici-
pated by the resort keepers and others for
when the police started out there was lit
tie to be Sone.
Scores of places which usually are filed
with men and women at all hours had sus-
pended business before midnight. Other
places, although open, had no patronage,
and the almost deserted streets showed
that something unusual was expected by
the habitues The few places which the
warning had not reached. or where it had
been disregarded were pounced upon by
the raiders. and before morning the cells
at the Tenderloin station house were pack
ed to the limit Of their capacity.
Bail commissioners reaped rich harvest
from the crusade. Scores of women taken
from the resorts contributed SIS each for
the services of commissioner rather than
spend the night under restraint. They ex-
small fine when arraigned today.
