/ i tuk jttxa or ram fa pc an*. A 8tf» mg9 Adven- Man Wh4> Mad Many tur*.« la the Fact fir. Aboat three weeka ago an explorer died in tit. Petersburg who was known far nnd wide among the Russians as “King of the Papuans. ” It was Dr. Maklncbo AUclaj, the noted Russian ethnologist, in whose honor a long stretch of the northeast coast of New Guinea, now in the bands of Germany, is called the klaelsy ooash Few explorers hare braved more hardships and dangers than Dr. Mads?, and pure lore of soienoe induced him to incur perils from which most men would shrink. A few years ago a schooner dropped anchor one evening in an unknown bay on the New Guinea coast. Boats put off, landed Dr. Mac lay and his boxes on the beach, and then the schooner sailed away in the darkness, leaving Dr. Maclay alone on a savage coast that no white man had ever visited before. When the natives next morning found the white man sitting on his portmanteau they thought the strange object had dropped from the sky. They believed at first that ho was a god, and they nearly killed him with experiments before they de cided that he was human like themselves. They fastened him in a hut, put guards around the structure and nearly starved him, thinking that if he were not of human origin he did not need food. They said that nothing ought to frighten him if he were a god, and so they tied him to a tree, shot arrows close to his bead and neck and severely wounded him during the experiment. Then they pressed their spears against his teeth to make him open his mouth, and in many other ways they put his courage, temper and strength to severe testa They finally made up their minds that he was not a god, because his wound bit d and he needed food; but they deci ded he was a capital fellow, Iwoauae he was always gooonatnred. Many of their sick recovered health under his skillful care, and Dr. Maclay finally acquired the reputation far and wide of being a big medicine man who had dropped from the moon. For two years Dr. Maclay lived among these savages, feeling amply repaid for all his sacrifices by the wealth of scientific facts he was able to collect. Four years ago, Mr. Romilly, Great Britain’s Commissioner for the Western Pacific, visited Astrolabe Bay. “The natives were rather shy at first. ” he wrote, “until I shouted the magical name Maclay; then they came up as fast as they could. By the help of the few words Maclay bad written down for me, I was able to inform them that he would come back to them sooo. They at once became extremely friendly, and kept on telling each other that 1 was Maclay’s brother. It is possible that they were more civil to me than they would be to every one, owing to the fact of my acquaintance with Maclay, which I made the most of.” Over a year ago it was announced that Maclay was about to lead 250 Russian colonists to New Guinea to settle on the coast which he was the first to visit. The Russian Government, however, dis couraged the project, and it was abandon ed. The Germans are now planting their stations along the coast, which Romilly says is the most beautiful he ever saw, and in his book he fully confirms the favorable report that Dr. Maclay gave of this part of the great island. Though only 42 years old when he died. Dr. Maclay bad traveled more extensively in the Western Pacific than any other scien tific man, and it is to be regretted that the account of his protracted explora tions, which he had been writing for many months, was only half completed when he died. M’MIUIN ON THE TARIFF. Hi* Arff*M’*tit Carrie* Conviction to HiK Auditor-*-The Fublic Land*. Congressman Mr.-Millin addressed 20,000 Democrat* at the grand ratification me«-t tog held in the Academy of Music, New York city, on 28lh June. He had hardly started before he completely captured ibe audience When he aaid be proposed to take the Republican scalp or leave bis own in bis enemy’s fingers he was loudly cheered. He said: “Fellow Citizens: What has been the condition of the labor of this country tor the last few years? I have had access to the advance sheet* 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 22,336 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 8 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, 3122 percent, of whom were females. Of the 22,336 establishments in which strikes occurred, the strikes in 18,342, 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 ilens; $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 lions in the internal revenue of $24,455, 000, or a grand total of tax reduction from tariff and 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 titates. And the AT THE PLUMED KNIGHTS HOME. Kooning Meeting of Demoernt* to Shoot for Cleveland and Victory. Portlard, Me., July 5.—Maine Demo crats bad a rousing ratification meeting to night, when clubs from all parts of the State joined with Portlanders in ratifying the work of the Maine and 8t. Louis con ventions. Fifteen hundred Cleveland and Thurman, with baif adozen bands, arrived on special trains and paraded the streets of the city, headed by the Putnam Phalanx. Many companies wore linen dusters and tall white hats, and every man bad a ban danna and flag At 8 o’clock 3,000 persons were called to order in the City Hall by Chairman M. P. Frank, whi introduced William L. Put nam, candidate for. Governor, who spoke on the tariff and the necessity of its revision. Among other things, be said that the Re publican tariff policy had in the matter of shipping done enormous damage to Maine. He did not think Democrats could.fail vic tory in the coming contest. He made no reference to the fisheries question, but said that America could afford to be just and fair in treating with ber neighbors. He denied that the Democrats, or any other party, were working for British free trade. Mr. Putnam was loudly cheered. He was followed by Archibald McNicbol, of Calais, and by John B. Redman, who in 1884 was the Democratic standard bearer in this State. Victory, he said, was assured to Maine Democrats this year. Others speakers were William H Clifford and D. J. MoGillicuddy. The whole oc casion was grand and it proved to be a great Cleveland and Thurman boom in the territory of Blaine. When the names of the candidates were mentioned, the meet ing cheered and cheered again. Interviews with leading Democrats showed that the party never was in better condition for fighting, and that the leaders expect to greatly reduce the Republican majority, or really to beat Burleigh.

Washington, July 5.—Gustave Linden thai, the designer of the projected bridge across the Hudson River at New York city, is in Washington looking after the legislation asked of Congress. “The Brooklyn Bridge,” said Mr. Lindentbal, “will be of small consequence iu compari son with the structure we propose. The latter will be the largest bridge in the world. The middle span will be 2,850 feet long, and the cud spans 1,500 feet. We proposed to start at the high ground on the Jersey side, known as Castle Point, and land in New York about Fourteenth street. We will have six railway tracks, and pas sengers from any part of the country will be brought to a comfortable station In tbe heart of tbe city, within reach of the ele vated and surface railroads. “This will obviate the necessity of ferry ing passengers across tbe river, frequently at great risk from fog and ice, and lauding them in tbe most unattractive part of New York. The bridge can be built for $16,- 006,000, and we shall have no trouble in raising tbe money. The investment will necessarily yield a handsome profit, for the business transacted will be something enor mous. The whole matter has been thor oughly thought out, and by men fully com petent to tbe task. Tbe surveys have been nR.de and tbe plans adopted meet the ap proval of all interested.” plain, simple question to be presented here today is: Will we take.thie 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 pie, where it justly belongs? “Tbe battle is to he waged on principle on our side. Tbe question involved is whether tbe people shall he taxed beyond the necessities of government or not Concerning that question I have no kind of fear. I know full well that when tbe ides of November shall come, it will have been determined by tbe voice of New York, by the voice of Indiana, by tbe voice of New Jersey, by tbe voice of Con necticut, by the voice of tbe Pacific slope, by tbe voice of a large majority of tbe American people, that for four more years the White H. -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 tbe United States is to b&ve for its pre siding officer that man who, of all others, made the greatest impress when there, tbe Hon. Allen G. Thurman. “I claim, fellow-citizens, that the politi rf eal erganizatfeg-kawa-es the Republican, party has violated these sacred principles ever since it came into power. Ooe 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 A Bound House Blown Down. New Brunswick, N. J., July 5.—The Pennsylvania Railroad round house at Millstone Junction was blown down in a heavy storm this afternoon. James Barry, Hugh 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 broker, and Barry bad a leg broken and was badly bruised. A barn on George Plumley’s farm near Middlebusb 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 tbe farm were wrecked. Terrible damage is re ported everywhere hereabouts from wind, bsil and lightning, also at Middlebusb and Millstone. President of the Republic, he had the pa triotism and tbe boldness to bold aloft tbe Constitution and proclaim it as the supreme law of tbe land. He began tbe 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 defender. The Pan-Presbyterian Council. London, July 4—Tbe Pan-Presbjterian Council opened today, Lord Cairns presid ing. Mr. Matthews, of Quebec, presented a statistical report, showing that.there were 4,000,000 communicants, equivalent to 20,000,000 adherents. He said that educa tion was much looked after, as the princi pies they held did not commend themselves to persons without education. Respecting missions, 60,000 communi cants bad been gathered into the Presbyte rian Church from heathenism, and over 500 ministers bad been sent to preach to the heathen. A Kilkenny Cat Fight. Mcslogee, I. T., July 2.—A desperate fight between United States officers and two notorious desperadoes took place at a green corn dance near Eufaula late Satur day night. United States Marshals Phil lips and McGlaughlin attended tbe dance with the expectation of arresting some es caped outlaws. They found two whom they wanted, brothers named Barnett. The Barnetts refused to surrender, and in tbe fight which followed Phillips was in stantly killed. McGlaughlin and one of the Barnett brothers we e riddled with bul lets, so thot both died shortly. An out eider named McIntosh was shot in the arm by the surviving Barnett, who terror ized the gathering for some time. the Constitution’s “The next step taken was to establish carpetbag government and military rule in the South, and disfranchise ber people. How well they succeeded years of suffering and maladministration bear testimony. When impartial histories shall have been written it will app ar that of all the gov ernments ever devised for tbe torture and robbery of a free people, carpetbag rule has been tbe most efficient. Nor is this all, my countrymen. Un der tbe Acts of Congress granting lands to railroads, if the roads were not built in a specified time tbe lands were to be forfeited. They were to revert to the people. Part of the roads were not so built. You will say: ‘Surely, Virginians, no man could ob ject to reclaiming the lands?’ Ah, there was a Virginian in the Senate in tbe Foity seventh Congress who so far forgot Vir ginia that be joined the opponents of Democracy and deposed the Democratic organization of that body and foisted upon t an organization which refused to declare upon it an organization which refused to declare these lands forfeited, or reclaim one single acre of them for the people. Need I say that I refer to your senior Sen ator, General Mabone? He asks your en dorsement. Are you ready to give it, after be has thus made it impossible for you to reclaim, during the Forty-seventh Con gress this vast domain—your birthright and heritage? Never while tbe waters flow! never while tbe grasses grow! never while Virginia’s sons retain the spirit of of Virginia's sires will Lhis glorious old Commonwealth endorse a man who thus stood in the way of the reclamation of our wasted public lands.” fApplause.] Sold A Sian On Tima. Mrs. Emma Mumford, at tbe Aimory Polica Court yesterday, sold her husband, William, for $200, $50 of which was paid in cash and the other $150 promised in monthly payments of $50 each. William is not a bad looking fellow. He is tall, well built, baa a fine mustache and side whiskers. He dresses well, and, with his gold eyeglasses, presents a stylish ap pearance. Altogether, it seemed that William was quite cheap at the price paid, but he had his failings, and it was these that led hu wife to sell him as reasonably as she did. Mr. and Mrs. Mumford lived in Montreal, Canada. He was bookkeeper in a large honse and earned sufficient money to support his wife com fortably. Ho became fascinated with woman named Clara Brown. Miss Brown reciprocated Mumford’s admira tion, and they ran away to Chicago. They got here a little over a week ago, and were followed by Mrs. Mumford, who arrived last Friday. A warrant was sworn out and served by Officer Palmer, who took the couple before Justice R. H. White yesterday morning. Mumford begged his wife not to prosecute, but she was firm. He leaned over as though to whisper iu her ear and his arm stole to ward her waist. She jumped back and shook him off. “Emma” he said, “don’t prosecute me, 1’U go back and behave myself.” “Oh, no you won’t; I am not going to pay your way back to Montreal, and then have to support you.” “But you wouldn’t send your husband to tbe penitentiary?” “Wouldn’t I? You wait and see.” Then Mrs. Mumford thought a mo ment. “I’ll tell you what I’ll do, ma’am, she said, turning to Miss Brown. 'T have scarcely a dollar in the world. If you will give me $200, enough to start in a small business in Montreal, you can have him and I won’t stand in your way. " Miss Brown pleaded that she didn’t have the $200, but was told that she had better raise it before the case was called Mrs. Mumford’s look roused her to ac •HbH ai iron and she left the station. hour later she returned with a despairing look on her face, “I could only raise $50,” she said, “but I will get the rest if you will give me time. The injured wife saw that was the best she could do and took the money. She then made Miss Brown sit down and write ont three notes for $50 each, payable in thirty, sixty and ninety days. These she pnt in ber pocket, and fifteen minutes later the case was dismissed for want of prosecution.—Chicago Herald. Fell Bead In tbe Eden Blnaee. New York, 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 plantar who died in 1870. She was in company with Mrs. McHenry, of Alabama, at the time of the accident. We are told that the Siberian Railroad will connect Napirsk, Chita, Irkutsk, To bolak, Tomsck, and Ekaterineburg.

Teller Pitcher Keletr* How He Stole the Sum of 9700,000. Montreal, July 6.—-In the case of Charles A. Pitcher, defaulting bank teller of the Union Bank of Providence, R. I , Detective Kellert swore that Pitcher had told him that the bills found on him were identical with those stolen from the bank, and that two notes of exchange also found on him were purchased with the bank’s money. The prisoner bad told him that he found his salary, $2,0®) a year, too little to support his sick wife and meet other expenses. In answer to a question whether he (Kellert) knew that the gold and paper found on Pitcher, amounting to $149,800, was taken from the bank or re ceived in payment of checks, witness said the accused had told him that be had taken them himself from the safe of the Union Bank. Pitcher told him that he got into the safe through knowing how to work the combination. Tbe prisoner also said he had stolen lully $70(^000 In gold, silv. r, notes, bills receivable and cashier’s cbeckr and that be bad carried the whole amount away in a clothes basket so as not to excite suspicion. He staled also that when be made up bis mind to go be.thought be would take everything in sight; that the bank could not do without tbe bills receiv able, and if tin y wanted them back they would have 10 give him $150,000, or lo without them, which they could not do. He also said that be had w riuen to a law yer named Lippen, and, after relating all the circumstances, requested him to inform the bank and tell them that he would turn over all he had for $150,000. The accused mentioned that he had sent some cashier’s checks to parties to buy bonds and send them to him in London or Paris, but did not mention the parties’ names.

Socrates had just settled himself down in the southeast corner to brag to Pickles Smith about the size of the carbuncle on his neck, and he slowly responded to tbe invitation. “Brndder Sheilbark,” said the presi dent, ‘T ar’ pained to observe a persis tent disposhun on your part to tackle de big words iu de English language.
