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

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. Wonderful cour
age is evinced.

TO SPAN THE HUDSON.
The Brooklyn Bridge a Smalt Affair by
Comparison.
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

ever since it came into power. Ooe of its
first acts of hostility to good government
after the war closed was directed against

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

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.

How well they succeeded years of suffering

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.

A BASKET OF BOODLE.
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.

Hydrophobia at Moant Holly,
Mount Holly, July 4 —Justice Cbas.
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 seized 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 be 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
be expired in a terrible spasm. The best
medical skill failed to alleviate his agony.
He was 56 years of age and leaves a larj
| family.
