ilato of 1703.
Chief Matthews , of the police force ,
lias his vest decorated with a fold star , a
beauty , the gift of Harry Hirkinbine , the

worthy of wearing such a star.
Ono of thu little ones at thu Home of
the Friendless was buried yesterday.
Much sympathy and generosity was
shown by a number of citizens in ar
ranging lor the funeral , and the services

The now city council starts jn well.
They have not had but one meeting , and
* do not propose to meet again until the
regular mooting next Monday night.

li lot of business when they do meet , rather
than keep tlio mill grinding slowly and
putting small batches in thu hopper.

attended. The Catholic church was hlled
to its utmost capacity , and there was a
very long line of carriages filled with
friends wno followed the remains to their
last resting placo. Father Ilcaly gave a
very sympathetic address.
The county treasurer has a pet crow ,
which attracts the attention of visitors to
that ollico. and helps to make it cheerful
for the fellow who lias to turn both pock
ets wrong side out to got enough to pay
liis taxes. A cheery sort of a bird to have
around such a place , and it brightens the
gloom greatly.
War has opened on the saloons which
nro not complying with tlio requirement

supreme court.
Ono of the tramps at work on the street
was hoard counselling with n fellow in
the chain gang as to the advisability of
making a break to gel away. ' ! don't
mind thuir shooting , for they wouldn't
aim to hit anyway , but I'm afraid the

rather they'd shoot than blow these whis
tles , for wnen the whistle bounds every
body knows wo are running away. "
Charles Stubbons was yesterday fined
for getting crazy drunk and shooting ou"
his revolver. The follow whom Charles

Tlio News of Yesterday
Told lirkcfly.
Ilnck From Mexico.
Colonel Snpp and Hon. Gco. F. Wright
lately returned from tin extended trip
through Mexico , where they found ninny
nutters to interest them : ind their friends.
Mr. NVriglit was clmttlng with a llltlo
group of friends ycstcrduy , telling some
of his experiences.
"Yon ought to ROC tlio way they start off
a stage there. They have n stage which
is as licnvv as a , sleeping car and Ihoy
hiteh a little pair of mules onto the front
of this , and then they lull on in front of
them six more innloitll , | : iibrcaht , nml four
more ahead of them , abreast , and then
two more as leaders. They have ahont
as many men to hitch tip as there are
mules , and they keep fooling around , and
making the head mules believe that they
are not hitched up until they get all
ready , they toll you to get in , the driver
gathers up all the reins , and then the
lust tug is hitched and awnyyou go. For
the first mile it means business. They
ahyays go on the jump , und arc sure to
strike all the stones. In fact they seem
to take nains to pick out some stony
place to start. Alter the lirst mile it is
all rigiit , and they can htop and start tip
at will. It's the fashion of the country in
making all starts. A fellow there don't
think : i horse is any good at all unless it
takes liftecn minutu.s to get on his back ,
and the hor.se kicks and nucks enough to
throw any ordinary man oil"1
"How did you enjoy the meals served
in Mexico ? "
"Ilorriblel The only clean thing you
can get is a boiled egg with the slii'll
still on. Garlic is .stnlVed into every dish ,
and in all sorts of ways. Take rice for
instance. They are bent on putting any
thing into rice so it won't taste like nee
It don't make much dillerence what they
can get , so long as they get something to
spoil the taste of it. Co lieu ? You ought
to see it. It is as black as a colHn and as
thick as pudding , and they drink it
'grounds and all. We drank it until it
made us sick , and after that had to eon-
line ourselves to milk and water. "
"Are there not some signs of progress
and improvement1'
"They arc few. Yon should sec them
plow. They have a little bit of a , one-
handled all'air which just tickles the
ground and it does just as well , for the
gram will grow if it only has a little
water. They fasten the yoke to tlio
horns of the oxen instead of about their
necks. There was an Englishman there
who owned a big ranche , and he was
bound that they should use the yokes as
they are used in this country. Ho saw
that the oxen were yoked himself , and
worked his way from one end of his
rancho to the other , and when ho came
back the next day he found every blessed
one of them had taken oil' the yokes as
soon as his back was turned , and had
fastened them onto the horns. The only
way ho could get his help to use the yokes
right was to threaten them. In starting
oxen there is a startling exception in the
rule as generally. It takes them until
noon to start a yoke of oxen. Anil then
their plows. There are some American
plows to be found there. There were n
lot of regular plows introduced there ,
but the only way they could get these fel
lows to use them was by sawing oft" one
handle. Then they thought they were
better. Yon sec they want one hand to
crack the whin with. Now American
plows lira made for them little bits of
things , like a boy's plow , with one
handle and a long light beam , reaching
way up fco as to fasten to the horns of the
oxen. "
Rnmlnll Heard I'rom.
At last tidings have been received from
W. C. Randall , the insurance agent who ,
about a month ago , was reported as dying
suddenly in St. Louis. The report was
found to bo false , and there was a. con
jecture that ho had got on a big spree , or
had some other like reason for absenting
himself from nis office hero. Numerous
creditors ap'peared , the office was sio/.ed ,
and there was n sensational revelation of
affairs , causing much talk. Nothing has
been heard of his whereabouts since , un
til the return from Kansas of Mr. E. L.
Shugart and Mr. I. N. Flickinger , who
had been called into that state to look
after some land business. In going from
Saline to Aberdeen they were surprised
to find Randall on the train. He claimed
to have heard nothing before about the
sensation which his uisappcarancc from
the city had caused , and appeared very
indignant at the reports afloat , and
claimed that he should return here by the
Ibt of April and vindicate his honor and
reputation. Ho claimed that the com
pany hiil not used him right. Ho was
not feeling well , and felt that he must
have n change and rest. Consequently ,
he sent word to the general office to have
them send a man here to take his place
for sixty days. He claimed that lie had
written agreements with the company
for lilting up the offices hero , and incur
ring other debts , which the company had
refuseil to pay , on the grounds that they
had never authori/.cd Randall to contract
them. When bantered about the fact
that his obituary had been written up
hero on the strength of the telegram an
nouncing his death , ho had little to say
explanatory of it , oxcot ) that it was all a
mibtako about his having died , and ho
did seem to bo a lively corpse. Ho said
ho was traveling on the road now , und
when asked for whom ho said , "Oh , a
friend of mine. " Ho reassured the Coun
cil DhiIVs twain that he should bo in this
city by the 1st of April to not matters
right here , and to hhow the baseness of
the reports circulating about him. Ho
gave his present address as Kansas City ,
Those hero who want to sen him may
therefore expect him to call on them
April 1 , an appropriate date to sot ,

M'CULLOUGH AND BOOTH.
Fred Wnrclo's Opinion of the Two
Great Actors.
Now York Mail and Express : A re-
jiortor for the Mall and Express met Fred
Wardo the other day. Mr. Wardo'said it
was tlio lirst time ho had played in New
York City as a t > tar , and ho was highly
pleased at his suei-ess. For live years ho
had been traveling about the country ,
gradually working toward Now York ,
and to bo received t > o kindly bv the audi
ence was to him most gratifying.
"Yon have been in this country a long
tinio now. Mr. Wunle * "
"Since 1874. I was born in the houth
of England and educated at the city of
London schools. On coming to this
country I was engaged at Hooth's ' theatre ,
and played a character lirst in a drama
of Houclenult called Hello Lamar. Th $
late John MeCullougli was also a mem
ber of the company at the time. Either
the mat few months in 187-1 or
early in 187 , I Mipporlcd the late Charlotte -
lotto Cnshman , and played Mncdiilt in
Macbeth. 1 was in the original cast of
Julius Ca-sar at Booth's , and rcMgncd
from that company because I was al
lotted the part of Julius IVsar. 1 then
joined John MeCullough's company and
played lago to his Othello and Marc An
tony to his Julius Ctesar. It is to John
McCullough that I owe my present posi
tion. Ho advised mo to star live years
ago , and 1 took his advice. There never
was a more thorough gentleman or kindhearted -
hearted man than McCullough. Why , sir ,
1 havu known hint to slip off' the stage
when ho was disengaged , enter a box
and lead the applause for some one who
deserved approbation. Poor JohnVo ! \
wore great friends ; ha was a great actor.
' 'You must bo well acquainted with
Mr. llootli ? "
"I nm , sir , and our close acquaintance
grow from our fondness for pipes. Mr.
liooth is very reserved , modest and re
tiring. He is fond of his pipe. I as an
Englishman am alto fond of a pipo- , and
often when traveling together wo would
retire to the baggage-car and light our
pipes , and then , somehow or other , over
that iociable pipe wo would get to study
ing and talking until we became fast
friends. "
"There is n popular idea that Mr.
Booth does not favor any good actor be
ing in his company , because he is of a
verv jealous disposition , "
"That is altogether false. There is
not n spark of jealousy in Mr. Booth , and
ho has boon supported by men who are
now starring all over the country. John
McCullough , Lawrence Itarivlt , Ebon
Plympton and lie ts of others have been
in his company , and now he lias the
Boston Museum Company with him.
Mr. Bootit is such a splendid actor that
a good man will fall altogether in the
shade by his side. "
OHIO'S RICHEST CITIZEN.
Ills name is David Sintoii Ills I'c-
oiillnrltIcs or 1'ersoii and Mind.
Cincinnati Enquirer : Who is it ? It is
David Sinton , Ohio's richest man , who
handles more ready cash than any of the
eighteen or twenty nulljonaircs or mil
lionaire estate's in our midst. His wealth
is estimated at from $10,000,030 to fjR'.OOO-
000 , nndjycl this is the man who lately gave
$7" > ,000 to the Art Museum , by which he
achieved a national reputation second
only to the late Reuben Springer and
Charles W. West. That was not his only
charity , for a few years ago he gave the
Butliol § 100,000 and to the Young Mens'
Christian Association $ ! I3,000. u hat a
strange mingling of personal iai > imony
and public charityl
Ho is of Scotch-Irish descent and was
born in the Belfast district , so famous for
its linens. At the age of three he came
to America , his parents settling at Pitts-
burg. There the boy grew up about the
huge foundries and naturally began to
think that fortunes were made in iron.
His lirst business venture was a clerkship
in a country store at a salary of SI a
month. Drifting down the Ohio river he
stops at the furnaces of the Hanging
Rock region and soon secures a clerk"-
ship , is not long in becoming manager
ana at last half owner. His next venture
was in Cincinnati , where ho opened an
iron store for furnishing the products of
the furnaces to buyers.
There are 11111115' anecdotes of his pe
culiar traits. Manager Page , of the
Western Union , was one of the few who
ever got the best of the old man. It was
in this way : Some time since there was
passed a city ordinance compelling all
owners of property to put on smoke con
sumers. Among the lirst who came to
the front with smoke consumers was
David Sinton , who had invented a device
that ho claimed Tilled the bill. He had it
lint on a building that he owns , and when
in a few day Page received notice to put
one on the Western Union building , he
addressed Sinton a note. The millionaire
answered in person , went down stairs
sat on an old box and figured up the cost
of the affair and reported to Page. "All
right , Mr. Sinton ; we'll sign a contract. "
'Agreed. " One feature of Mr. Sinton's
consumer was that it consisted of
two arches made of firebrick , which Mr.
Page believed would come down from
the force of the llames. Sinton insisted
they would not , and if they did , agreed
to put them up. In went the consumer ,
and in three months' time down
caved the arch. Sinton was notified
that his arch had fallen. Ho called , and
insisted that the lircman had pulled it
down. Tins tlio lireman an old em
ploye denied , and Sinton then said ,
well it will cost jron $30 to put up another
arch with my workmen and under my
direction : "Oh , no , " replied Page : "I
have a contract with yon , Mr. Sinton ,
and as you are a responsible man , if you
don't have j-our workmen there by 10
o'clock to-morrow then I will bringsuit. "
The workmen began at work at 7 o'clock
the next morning ; but the consumer was
no good , and finally had to be taken out.
Air. Sinton is a stickler for blue blood ,
and glories in his humble origin. It is
his greatest pride to tell how lie has
arisen by his own exertions from the
bogs of poverty to the throne of wealth
Ho is fond of a game of curds not for
money , but can never stand being beaten.

How Mr. CulIo Bcj > fui to Write.
Philadelphia Times : Mr. Cable says
that , though ho always had an inward
conviction that ho could be a writer , cir
cumstances seemed to force him into
commercial pursuits and for several
years ho was a chief clerk to a largo linn
in New Orleans , beside holding a prom
inent position in the cotton exchange of
that city. For a time ho wrote in ama
teurish way for several local papers and
was tinally engaged to write a column
every week for the Sunday edition of the
New Orleans Picayune. When that pa
per changed hands ho was assigned to
write a series of articles giving a history
of all thu religions and charitaule institu
tions of the cit5' . To do that ho had to
read the history of Now Orleans , which
ho fen o ijo vlmiwnytlmt of Louisf-
aua. Ho was BO charmed with the
romances interwoven with that his
tory that ho then resolved to write
stories of the early Creole daj-s , For an
entire year ho read all that ho could find
pertaining to the subject without putting
pen to paper , meanwhile retaining his
clerical position. It is now about four
years since ho gave up commercial pur
suits to devote himself wholly to litera
ture. Ho was first led to think of going
upon the platform to read selections from
his own works by his success in making
an appeal to the congregation of a Preb-
byterian church , of which ho was a mem
ber , to pay off'an old debt. Prior to that
time ho had uhvnys been very timid
about letting his voice bo heard in pub
lic , but his address to the church people
had such a romarkanlo effect the total
amount of the debt , which had been
hanging over them for years , being
promptly subscribed within a few min
utes after ho had finished that ho took
some lessons in elocution and essayed to
give public readln , "rom his mvn works ,
with what success utC the world knows.

"Wedding.
New York Loiter Cleveland Plain
Dealer : A young and enterprising He
brew slock broker saw a la ge square en
velope among the wedding presents with
the legend "From father to Julia. " Most
people would have felt sonic delicacy in
investigating tlio package , but not so
with this young man. He appeared after
the wedding at Dolmonico's cafe _ and
stated that Mr. Wormser had given his
daimht-r § 181,000 in Lake Shore lirfcts.
"How do j'on know ? " he was asked.
"Because I opened the envi'lope and
counted the bonds , " was the reply.
"Wore they not afraid to allow you to
do so ? "
"Oh , no ; there wore two detectives
watching mo and , besides , the bonds
were all in the bride's name. "
As Lake Shore lirsts are f-elling at 13H ,
the envelope must have contained one
hundred $1,000 bonds and the counting
process must have been somewhat pro
longed.
