FRESR aiUM Es FOR ALL. Em Nye Regrets The Decadence of Real Old Relies. (From the New York World.) Among the many letters of inquiry re cieved during the past week is the follow ing: "Last year I made a trip abroard, and among other trophies of my visit to the Old World I secured a fine specimen of a mummy, for which I paid seventy five saeudi. While showing it to a friend last week I discovered that the air of liuois is detrimental to it and that dis integrationistaking place. Can you tell me what is the cause and what I had better do in order to preserve the speci men intact?" Youhave no doubt paid at last seventy four sondi too much for your mummy, as mummies go. Nothing is more dis heartening than the discovery that one's mummy is not standing our harsh American climate. But the chances are that you have the modern style of mummy, made especially for Americans by the trade. He is not an antique, and before August you will have to decide whether to cast him aside or let him run the house. The genuine mummy has been ground up for fertilizing purposes duri'ng the past twenty years to such an axens that we are running short, and s us mummies made of coarse people who 'have died recently are ilooding the market. A friend of mine purchased a varnished king, supposed to be over 2,000 years old, for whice he gave It O sondi and a silk umbrella. In May of last year he began to asserthimself-the king did-and to enter more and more ido.the homelifeof his owner till it was dkesled to have a coat of shellac put on him. A house, sign and carriage painted came up to the house, and while refitting andiefnrnishing theroyal relics discover ed on the forearm a dark blue Goddess of Liberty in India ink and the legand, ~ Rchard Maginnis, Valpariso, Ind., 1853." A mummy that has to be kept in the refrigerator is a bitter, bitter diE appointment, and no doubt yours is of that clas. The modern methods of pre serving people do not in all cases prove eatfatory, and I do not know of any thing more pitiful or more humiliating than while explaining your mummy to a coterie of friends in the library to have him explode on your bands and and re veanhias true identity. Should disinte gration continuein the case of your own mummy, a private funeral is the best thing I could suggest. Let it be a plain affair, opening with a select reading or WiSation, followed by a vocal solo and a a Oet-to between some good artist and sthe piano. You could charge a small asmo oion fee, perhaps, which would go toward expenses, and close with a parade torrent of grief at the grav The wanton destruction of mummies aadtheir wholesale importation to this country were they have been ground up and used as fertilizers, is going to make good mummies scarce and high.

A DiSASTROUS FOURTH. . A Grand Stand Fails at Water Vanley, Miss., with Terrible Results. E0 asraMs, June 5.-A special from .Wr Valley, Miss., says: "Our little city, whicb intil noon yesterday was one con tlcnuous round of enjoyment, was in mourn ingla the evening.

Congressman Mc lillin addressetd 2(1,000 Democrats at the grand ratitie-tion meet ing held in the Academy of Music, New York city, on 28th June. lie had hardly started before he completelS' captured the audience. When he said he proposed to take the Republican scalp or leave his own in his enemy's tingers he was loudly cheered. He said: "FELLOW CITmZENS,: What has been the condition of the labor of this country for the last few years? I have had access to the advance sheets of the forthcoming third annual report of Hon. Carroll D. Wright, Commissioner of Labor. I wish to quote from it to show that twenty-seven years of alleged protection has not resulted in that peace, quiet and prosperity to the laborers which it was claimed would fol low it. "In the six years from 1881 to 1886 there have been strikes in 22,:136 establish ments. Of these, 16,692, or 74.74 per cent., were in the States of New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Ohio and Illinois, where protection is claimed to have wrought such wonders for the labor ing man. "There were lockouts during the same period in 2,182 establishments. Of these, 1.981, or 90.3 per cent., occurred in the five States named. The number of em ployees striking and involved was 1,324. 152. In addition to-these there were 159, 548 employees locked out, 31.22 per cent. of whom were females. Of the 22,336 establishments in which strikes occurred. the strikes in 1:,342, or 82.12 per cent. of the whole, were ordered by labor organiza tions; while of the 2,182 establishments in which lockouts occurred, 1,753, or 80.34 per cent., were ordered by combinations of managers. "Will any gentleman say, in the face of these great disturbances; that the condition of the labor of this country is entirely sat isfactory to the laborer? Has he derived that unmixed blessing from high taxation which was promised him? "What is the Mills bill? Is there free trade in it? Is there danger to labor in it? Not at all. It is a bill which proposes to take $878,000 off of chemicals; $1,756,000 off of earthen and glass ware; $11,480,000 off of sugar; $331,000 off of provisions; $227,000 off of cotton goods; $2,042,000 off of hemp, jute and flax goods; $12, 330,000 off of wo-lens; $3,000 off of hooks and papers, and $1,090,000 off of sundries. It is also proposed to add to your free list flax, hemp, jute, chemicals, salt, tin plate, wool and other things, amounting to $22, 189,000, making in all a tariff reduction of $53,720,000. It proposes to make reduc tions in the internal revenue of $24,455, 000, or a grand total of tax reduction from tariff an, internal revenue sources of $78, 176,000-more than a dollar and a quarter to every individual, or six dollars for every family in the United States. And the plain, simple question to be presented here today is: Will we take this burden off or will we leave it on? Will we free com merce, leaving it unshackled, or will we keep it hampered? Will we continue to hoard up a corrupting surplus or will we leave the money in the pockets of the peo ple, where it justly belongs? "The battle is to he waged on principle on our side. The question involved is whether the people shall be taxed beyond the necessities of government or not. Concerning that question I have no kind of fear. I know full well that when the ides of November shall come, it will have been determined by the voice of New York, by the voice of Indiana, by the voice of Niew Jersey, by the voice of Con necticut, by the voice of the Pacific z!ope, by the voice of a large majority of the American people, that for four more years the White He-use is to be occupied by that grand statesman, Grover Cleveland, and by that incomparable daughter of New York, his beautiful wife. It will also have been determined that once more the Senate of the United States is to have for its pre siding officer that man who, of all others, made the greatest impress when there, the Hon. Allen G. Thurman. "I claim, fellow-citizens, that the politi cal organization known as the Republican party has violated these sacred principles ever since it came into power. One of its first acts of hostility to good government after the war closed was directed against the Chief Magistrate of the United States. When Andrew Johnson found himself President of the Republic, he had the pa. triotism and the boldness to hold aloft the Constitution and proclaim it as the supreme law of the land. He began the work of pardon and reconciliation to reunite a dis tracted people. Tenure of office acts and impeachment prosecution were resorted to by our Republican opponents to get rid of the Constitution's defender. "The next step taken was to establish carpetbag government and military rule in the South, and disfranchise her people. How well they succeeded years of suffering and maladministration bear testimony. When impartial histories shall have been written it will appear that of all the gov ernments ever devised for the t<.rture and robber) of a free people, carpetbsg rule has been the most efficient. "Nor is this all, my countrymen. Un der the a&cts of Congress granting lands to railroads, if the roads were not built in a specified time the lands were to be forfeited. They were to revert to the people. Part of the roads were not so huilt. You will say: 'Surely, Virginians, no man could (1b ject to reclaiming the lande' Ah, there was a Virginian in the Senate in the F'orty seventh Congress who so far forgot Vir ginia that he joined the opponents of Demgocracy and deposed the Democratic organization of that body and foisted upon it an organiz tion which refused to declare upon it an organization which refused to declare these land, forfeited, or reclaim one single acre of them for the people. Need I say that I tefer to your senior- Sen ator, General Mahone? He asks your en dorsement. Are you reaoy to give it, after he has thus made it impossible for you to reclaim, during the Forty-severith Con gress this vast domain-your birthright and heritage? Never while the waters flow! never while the grasses grow! never while Virginia's sons retain the spirit of of Virginia's sires will this glorious old Commonwealth endorte a man who thus stood in the way of the reclamation of our wasted public lands " [ Applause.] Hydrophobia at Mount Holly. MOUNT HoLLY, July 4,-Justice Chas. R. Fennimore, a well-known citizen living near Delanco, died last night from the effects of a bite by a rabid dog received over three months ago. The wound was cauterized soon afterward and quickly healed, leaving a slight scar on his arm and wrist where the dog had teized him, and he experienced no inconvenience until Thursday last, when he felt strangely un easy on drinking a glass of ice-water. The day before he had been out superintending the harvesting of some wheat and was caught in a shower which wetted him to the skin and caused a chill Immediately afterward the symptoms of hydrophobia began to display themselves, and he con tinued to grow worse until last night, when he expired in a terrible spasm. The best medical skill failed to alleviate his agony. He was 56 years of age and leaves a large family. Fell Dead ina the Eden Mtusee. Nmsw Yonx, July 3.-Mrs. Stokes, an old lady from Madison, Ga., while descend ing a flight of steps at the Eden Musee to day, fell and died instantly. Mrs. Stokes was stopping with a friend at 128 Fifth avenue. She was the widow of a wealthy planter who died in 1870. She was in company with Mrs. McHenry, of Alabama, DEAD IN HIS PHANTOM BOAT. Flack's Fatal Attempt to Shoot the Niagara Rapids. NIAGARA F.AMtis. Ont., .1ludy 4.-Ri-bert W. Flack of Syracuse, with his l'hantotu boat, went throug ,h the rapids this after noon. The boat turned upside down three times in passing the rapids. When it was recovered from the whirlpool its occ:upant was dead. Flack started on his trip at precisely 3 o'clock. His boat upset after passing under the Cantilever Suspension Bridgo, but righted immediately. It was a brave fight for both man and brat through the roughest part of the perilous rapids, and they were tossed in all directions, being frequently out of sight. At last the boat turned completely over and remained so on entering the whirlpool. It was fully twenty minutes before a boat reached the spot where Flack was last seen, and it was 5.40 P. M. when his body was recovered anti taken to the Can ada shore. Flack was 39 years of age. He was born in England and served four years he fore the mast in the English service. He leaves a widow and six children, the eldest being but 12 years of age. His body was taken to Syracuse tonight. The boat in which Flack met his death was of his own invention, and called by him The Phantom. The craft had a straight keel, fifteen feet long, with four feet nine inches beam, and a depth of thirty-four inches at the stem and stern. The keel was an oak plank two by six inches. and weighed fifty-two pounds. A wrought iron shoe extending its entire length weighed torty-six pounds. A small wheel was ,et between the oak rudder and the stern of the boat. A shaft ran from the propeller to the cockpit, where it was revolved with two cranks, handled much as a carpenter manipulates a boring machine. Then straps were pro vided to fasten the boatman to the boat. Nearly all of the space of the boat was in closed and covered with decks, but there were no air chambers. Flack invented a composition much lighter than cork, which was fastened through in the inclosed parts of the boat, serving both as cushions and to insure bouyancy. The rudder was worked by cords running from the cockpit. Alto gether the weight of the craft did not ex ceed 500 pounds. Flack said that he intended the inven tion to serve as a life boat, and that he de sired to test it a few times in the whirl pool. On either side of the boat were fastened looks of cord to which ship wrecked people could cling until rescued. PICTAILS IN A PREDICAMENT. They Can't Get Away from Wyoming and v Are Imprisoned if They Remain. TAcon, Wy. T., July 4.-A question of great importance under the Chinese Re striction Act has just been determined in the District Court hete. A number of Chinamen had been arrested under the Act, soon after crossing the British Columbia line, for being unlawfully in the United States. They were tried at Seattle and sent to the United States penitentiary in this county for six months. The terms of some of them expired some time ago, and a Unsted .States Marshal for Washington Territory took some of them, in accord ance with the sentence of the court, back to British Columbia; but the authorities there refused to allow the Chinese to land without the payment of the tax of $50 per head imposed under their laws. This the Marshal had no authority to pay, and ac cordingly took the prisoners back to the penitentiary, where they now are. Thirty five have served out their sentences. A writ of habeas corpus was sued out in be half of Num Choey, one of their number, and his case made a test one. Judge Nash decides that the Marshal and the Warden of the penitentiary have no authority to detain the Chinese and are clearly in contempt of court in not having returned them to British Columbia. He has granted a stay of proceeding under the writ until July 6, that the Marshal may communicate with the authorities at Wash ington before setting the men free. The Marshal says he will, in accordance with the further ruing of Judge Nash, re arrest the Chinese, as soon as they are set free, and bring them again before the court on a second charge of being unlaw fully in United States territory. This leaves the Chinese in a peculiar situation. They can not get out of the United States unless some one will pay the British tax of $50 per head, and if they stay here they are liable to be arrested and be sentenced twice a year to a six months' term in the peniten tiary~, the imprisonment to keep going on as long as they stay in the country. There are about one hundred Chinese in the penitentiary whose terms for being here unlawfully will shortly expire, and these are the only Mongolians in this part of the country. The climate is evidently unhealthy for them. If the law doesn't send them up, something else does. Up In His Part. She was a woman of ready resources. While the hour was late, two or three evening visitors yet tarried, and the moment she heard her husband strike the steps she knew that he was boozy, and also grasped her line of cenduct. "Ha, ha!" she laughed, as she rose up, "he cometh! He has been out rehears ing for amateur theatricals, and it will be just like him to try to show off. He takes the part of a Major Springer, who conies home full." A hand was heard clawing over the door, a key was finally jabbed in the lock, and then the major entered. His hat was tipped back, his knees wobbled, and he hung to the door and muttered: "Whaz zhis I shee 'fore me? Shay, Em'ly whezzer doing. eh?" "De-lightfnl, splendid!" cried thbe wife, as she clapped her- hands. "Why, Harry, you are a grand success in your role!" "Whaz zhat? Whazzesr huffiai' 'bout? Firsi; time been shrunk in t wo years. Had lizzle tinme wiz zhe boys, you know." "Be-autiful! Booth couldn't beat it!" exclaimed the wife. "Why, dear', you are a born actor. It's jnst as natural as life." "Who shays I'm a liar! Whoop! I can lick any man in 'troit! Been out wiz'er boys, you know! Shay, Ema'ly ?" "Isn't he natural, though?" replied the wife. "Run up stairs, Harry, and change your clothes. You'il do.

And the little woman clapped her hands and laughed and praised, and got rid of her company under the impression that no one had smelt a mice. However, the last one was hardly off the step when she bounced up stairs and confronted the ex clamation: "Now, then, you old demijohn, pre pare to get the worst walloping a fool of a husband was ever treated to!" And he got it.-Detroit Free Press. Russia Sick of Bulgaria.

Dr. Barchard of blessed tuemory was seen by a Herald reporter yeuterday at his residence, opposite the reservoir in West Fortieth street. When asked his views on the Chicago ticket he looked puzzled for a moment, then he said: "L don't think that M1r. Cleveland will feel much agitated over the Republican notninaticus. So far as I know of Mr. Harrison be is a good enough man, but he is not, I believe, especially distin guished for anything. 1 really had no choice of candidates, but fell. that Mr. Depew would have made a most desira ble candidate, but it was feared that his name would imperil some Western State, and so he heroically withdraw. HIS OLD FRIEND BLAINE. "I believe that Mr. Blaine could have scarcely won the battle bail be been nominated. His candidacy would have stirred up all of the old animosities, and would have so divided the party that its success would have been greatly jeopar dized. "There is a large class of people who believe in letting 'well enough' alone, and Mr. Cleveland has done well. His honesty, his loyalty to his convictions and his sturdy common sense have won him so many friends that he is securely intrenched in his position, and no ticket that his opponents could possibly place in the field could overthrow him. That is the way the situation looks now. "It was by the merest chance that I presided at a meeting during the cam paign of 1884, when my remarks in which were embodied certain words, were so much distorted in meaning and so widely quoted. I desired to meet Mr. Blaine, and I regret that the incident caused so much noise. LOOKS aS IF HE'D VOTE FOR CLEVELAND. "I am no politician, and, although I always vote, I do not often express my views on the political questions of the day. The issue in this campaign is a doable one, but it looks as if there would be no change in the present ad ministration." "Will you vote the Democratic tick et?" was asked. "Ah! you must not press me too closely," said Dr. Burchard; "but you have heard my opinion of Mr. Cleve land. He has done well-excellently well. Mr. Harrison was chosen, as I suppose, on account of his ancestry, bat the time has gone by when a mere name can influence intelligent voters at the polls." Maxwell Will Surely Hang. ST. Louis, July 4.-Governor More house was in the city yesterday, and ques tioned as to his action upon the Maxwell petition for a commutation of the death sentence. The Governor refuses to express himself upon the subject to newspaper men, but to others he said positively that he would not interfere with the course .f the law. Yesterday the doomed man's mother and sister paid him another visit at the Four Courts. They were much more cheerful in appearance than on their pre vious visit. Maxwell's attorney says that his mother and sister will probably await the result of his argument before the Gov ernoi on the petition for clemency before they make a last appeal. A Round House Blown Down. NEW BRUNSwICE, N. J., July 5.-The Pennsylvania Railroad round house at Millstone Junction was blown down in a heavy storm this afternoon. James Barry, Hugu Garrigan and John White, three ball players, who were taking shelter from the storm. were buried in the ruins. Gar rigan had an arm and leg broken, and Barry had a leg broken and was badly bruised. A barn on George Plumley's farm near Middlebush was also blown down. Plum ley is reported killed. He was buried with two others under the ruins. Three horses were killed by the fall of the barn. The dwelling and other buildings on the farm were wrecked. Terrible damage is re ported everywhere hereabouts from wind, hail and lightning, also at Middlebush and Millstone. Criminal Carelesness in Chicago. CHICAGO.
