roi- Three Years He Suffered—Could

Hardly Breathe at-Night—One Nofiril
Closed for Ten Years.

Mr. A. M. Ramsey, of De Leon, TeXas,
was a sufferer from Catarrh in its
worst form. Truly, his description of
his sufferings seem little short of mar-

' Velous. Instead of seeking his couch,
lad for the night’s coming, he went to
at with terror, realizing that another
long, weary, wakeful night and a
struggle to breathe was before him.

‘ NEW YORK LETTER.

Of the many interesting facts than
can be told about the old Arcade
building at No. 71 Broadway, soon tc
be razed in favor of an up-to—date
sky-scraper, the most peculiar, per
haps, is that the history of the build-
ing is familiar to fewer people that
that of any other ancient landmark

\in the city. All Wall street, practi-
cally, passes through it six days in the
week, and about all the thousands oi
bankers, brokers, speculators and
clerks, who walk through- the building=
on their way to and from the finan-
cial district. can tell you about it is
that Russell Sage has his oflice there.
and not a few years ago the famous
bomb explosion occurred. The twc
most noted characters who have occu-
pied oflices in the Arcade are Russel?
Sage and Jay Gould. Mr. Sage, whci:
he leaves for hisnew quarters in tlic
Bank of Commerce building next
month, will have been a tenant for
more than 15 years. Mr. Sage was the
originator of a line of business which
grew~to great proportions

 

street. He instituted the “privilege

 

RUSSELL SAGE.

system,” by which brokers and traders
in securities who had small means
were enabled to test their judgment
by large operations. and at the same
time protect themselves from heavy
loss. He sold “puts” and “calls."
“spreads” and “straddles,” with the
result that dealings on the Stock Ex-
change greatly increased. As is fre-
quently the case, the inventor profits
little, and Mr. Sage lost several mil-
lions of dolPars in the privilege busi-
ness, and that, too, in a half week.
It was toward the end of May, 1894.
Mr. Sage had sold puts upon thou-
sands nnd thousands of shares of
stock. The market suddenly became
weak, prices dropped away, and a
panic was threatened.
It should be borne
“privileges” are contracts not enforc-
able by law. It is also borne in mind
now that Russell Sage never went
back on his word. For three days he
sat with pen in hand and, amidst the
excitement, when over 200 brokers
were clamoring to get into his pres-

the Importers’ and Traders’ Bank, un-
til he had used up several books and

time. $4,000,000 of his fortune melt
away like snowflakes in the sun.

It was on December 4, 1891, a Fri~
day, and, to be exact, 12:30 o’clock, for
Secretary Menzie’s watch stopped at
that moment, when the crank, Nor—
cross, who wanted over $1,000,000 of
Mr. Sage's money, threw the bomb
that killed himself and injured Mr.
Sage and others and blew the office
into kindling wood. That event was of
too recent date to need a reminder of
the details and the discovery of the
would-be assassin through the medium
of a clothes button which was picked
up in the building. Everybody in the
building was shaken up and scared
wt of considerable growth.

When some outside barbarian ac-
cuses New Yorkers of luck of civic
pride, the loyal G-otliziinitc usually
points to Madison Square Garden and
the Metropolitan Opera House as evi-
dence to the contrary. : "Ilerc," he has
been wont to explain with true Knick—
erbocker pride, “are two magnificent
monuments to public spirit. Both
these splendid structures have been
built and maintained at a loss by men
who dedicated them to the service and
amusement of their fellow-citizens.”
But there is a limit to good nature.
The stockholders of the Madison
Square Garden Company think that
they are satisfied with the experience
they have gained. and are quite will-
ing now to have some-one else shoul-
der the load. So they decided. Any
enterprising agriculturist who wishes
to try his lian at this sort of garden-
ing can get the site at a bargain, and
have the famous bronze Diana, that
moves with every wind on the latest
style of ball-bearing axis, thrown in.
The Garden was evolved out of the
old Harlem Railroad depot, and as
sumed its present shape in 1890. It is
the largest building in the country en-
tirely devoted to purposes of amuse-
ment. The arena holds 11,000 people,
the theatre 1.200 and the assembly hall
1,200 more. It has been the scene of
many notable events, social, political
and sporting. The hope is that some
multbmillionaire, or a syndicate of
them, may come forward and buy in
the building, and either continue it in
its present form, or remodel it, so that,
while preserving its essential features,
additions may be made' that will ren-
der the property, in a. measure, a
profitable investment.

IS KELLEY INSANE?

His Strange Doings to Be Urged In Ex-
tenuation of His Crime.

_ Amesbury, Mass, April 22.—The news
of her son’s arrest and subsequent con-
fession of guilt as the murderer of
Cashier Stickney, of the Great Falls
National bank of Somersworth, N. H..
has prostrated the mother of Joseph E.
Kelley and today she was seriously ill.
In fact. her condition was such that Mr.
Kelley has abandoned his plan to go to
Somersworth at once and will remain,
with his wife until she is much better.

Since yesterday there has been much
talk here about Kelley’s probable in-
sanity and many references have been
heard to the fall which he sustained
when a child, the facts of which have
been recalled since the first intimation
of Kelley’s possible connection with the
murder.

It is pointed out that the theory of
mental unsoundness is the only one
consistent with the many strange acts
he has committed since he was a. boy.
It is expected that this will be urged as
extenuation for the crime when Kelley
comes before the courts.

Kelley Professes Religion.

Montreal, April 22.—Kelley, the Som-
ersworth murderer, was to have been
arraigned today, but the absence of Ex-
tradition Commissioner Judge Dugas
delayed matters. Kelley has made a
long statement about his former de-
plorable lack of religion, which he
blames for his present plight. He pro-
fesses to have been converted anew by
reflection upon his crime.

Fatal Fire at Chicago.

Chicago, April 22.—Two lives were
lost and three dwellings partially de-l
stroyed by fire in a building at 4226
Ashland avenue. Many of the occu-
pants were forced to jump from the
windows, while others were taken down
ladders. The persons killed were John
McCleash and John Coyne. Goyne, who
was but 13‘ years old, was found in the
arms of MeCleash, who had evidently
perished in an effort to save the boy.

Republicans Win In Omaha.
Omaha, April 22.—Complete returns
from the election show the election of
the entire Republican city ticket and
seven out of nine councilmen. The vote
on mayor was: Moores (Rep), 6,622;
Howell (fusion), 6,417.

Japan In a New Light.

Now that Japan is on the brink of
replacing her currency on the exclusive
gold basis, we presume" that we shall
no longer be worried with fearful vi-
sions of her growing industrial suprem-
acy, which was alleged to be' due to the
silver standard. It was affirmed that
whatever goods Japan sold in this coun-
try, being paid for in gold, practically
doubled the seller’s income when the
proceeds were converted into silver.
And this tremendous advantage the Japg
enese now relinquish.

THE FIRST FUCHSIA.

_

 

How rr \Vas Originally Brought to Eng-
land from the West Indies.

The fuchsia, which is now in every
garden, fifty years ago was exceeding-
ly rare and highly valued; and the
story of this beautiful shrub’s introduc-
tion into our gardens is interesting.
Some time in the first quarter of the
present century a gentleman from Liv‘
erpool, while walking through a street
in Wapping. saw' in the window of a

' humble-looking tenement a graceful lit-

tle shrub, with dark green leaves and
beautifully pendulous carnation blos-
soms. He was charmed with the new
floral gem, and, when he returned to
Liverpool, called upon a celebrated
florist, to whom he described the plant.
The curiosity of the florist, who did not '
know any plant which came up to the,
description, was so greatly excited that
he set of! immediately for London.
Having found the house, by seeing the
plant in the window, he entered, and
iscertained that its owner was the wife
of a sailor, and that her husband had ,
brought the plant home from the West
indies as a love-offering to his young
spouse. The delighted florist made
overtures for the purchase of the fu-
chsia, which were at first strenuously
refused. After some little time, box-.-
ever, he got posSession of the much-
coveted prize. Having given the sail-
or’s wife a handsome sum of money in
hand, and a promise that the first plant
raised from it should be sent to her, he
started for Liverpool, and after proper
treatment, he soon had the plant ex-
hibited in his show-room, where it in-
stantly attracted the attention oil-ama-
teurs. After fulfilling his promise to
the seller's wife at Wapping, be real-
lzed some £300 the first year the plant
was exhibited, and was thus well re-
paid for his enterprise.

. Consoled.

It is possible to find occasion for
thankfuluess under the most adverse
clrcumstances.‘ A good story is told
of an old organ—blower who was dy-
ing. The curate was visiting him.

“Would you mind, sir. asking our or-
ganist to play the ‘Dead March’ over
me?” asked the sick man.

“Certainly I will, Chapman,” said .
the curate.

"'l‘lmiilzee. sir; none of that ere
tweodlcdunr Beethoven, you know,
sir: only Handel’s."

“I :llll sure he will do it,” responded
l'lic. curate. ' .

The old man lay placidly for" awhile,
and then exclaimed, with fervour:—

"How thankful I be that .I shan’t
have to blow for him when he plays
the loud part at the end.”—Tid-Bits.
