New York City Politics.

A union of the anti-Tammany forces
in New York city seems to have been
affected, the terms of agreement being
the adoption of 8. loo :1 option excise
plank and the nomination of a ticket
which is one half Plath Republican, and
the other half State Democratic and
Comm ttee of Fiity. The real parties
to the fusion are the two Republican
factions, theS ate Democrats, the Ger-
man-American Reform Union and what-
ever independent Votes the Chamber of
Commerce represents.

The Stockist: and O’ Brien Democrats
are ignored, and the Good Government-
Clubs are disgruntled, but it looks as
though, the real voting strength of the
anti-'l‘ammany elements had partici-
pated in the union, and if this amounts
. to a majority this year Tammany will
be dafeated again. The element of un-
certainity in the contest in the part the

Beautiful October.

October is wonderful in its charms
and fruitful in beauty. No sunrise and
sunset like those of October. There is
the go'den shecn over forest and field
with rainbow colors on the hills and
crimson on the mountains. The lace-
work of autumn leaves becomes a glow-
ing archway to the pathways of the
woods and the squirrels and chipmunks
scamper and chatter about as. chestnut
burrs open and the hickory nuts drop
among the mosses. The meant and red
of the orchards, the clouds that were
never so fleecy nor sky so blue, the
buckwheat so suggestive of the coming
morning’s meal, and the golden rod and
clematis and sumac by the roadside.
These are proclamations of Nature’s
change from blossoms and roses and
harvests to the mysteries that have [hell
sesls in the frosts and in c verings of
ice and snow. October is closing the
door to summer and makes no secret
about it.

Bereabouts, the subtle frost traceries
were to be seen this morning. on roof
and window pane,and glistening in the
early morning run, while over hillsides
and valleys the white crystals were so
dense that the small boy ransacted the
garret for his sled, creating uproar in
the household. Glorious October.

Corsican Brothers.

An event of importance in the dra-
matic field will be the appearance at
Hoyt‘s Opera House next Saturday
night of Robert Mantel], the famous
romantic actor, who presents “The Cor
sican Brothers, Dumas’ pdwerful drama.
The production Mr. Mantell gives of
this great dramais acknowledged to be
the finest ever given in America, and
Mantell’s success as Louis and Fabien
del Franchi, is only second to that he.
achieved in “Monbars.” As Mr. Man'-
tell is extremely popular in this city a
large audience will in all probability
turn out to welcome him.

HOW HE WORKED A MINE.

 

 

 

 

The Sheep Mountaineer Enlightena the
College Brrd Inquirer.

“How do we work a mine?” exclaim-

ed the Sheep mountaineer. “Well, you
unsophisticated, undeveloped outcrop-
ping of the land of the rising sun, I’ll
proceed to enlighten your beclouded col-
lege bred undeist-anding.’

The college bred young man from the
land of the rising sun sat down on a
$300» to the ton chunk of ore and turned
his undivided attention to listening to a
discourse on mineralogy.

“We first prospect around until we
find a tunnel in on the jugular vein and
a pile of ore on the dump. Then if the
other feller ain’t looking we jump. Then.-
we proceed to sink a shaft on the float,
gather all the gangue and sack it, being
careful to preserve technical phrases in
mineralogical science in so doing. Then
we prospect the stockholders with an as-
sessment, and if they don’t come down
put in a. blast. At- this point we call the-
roll, grab a N O. 4 warranted not to rip,
wear, tear, rave], cut or run down at
the heel ragical, tragical, irrasive smelt-
er and run up our stack. If the other
feller holds the best band, the stack
will diminish, and we consequently
drift for a pay streak. If we don’t get
through drifting by fall, it’s‘thc fnst
thing we go at in the spring. We now
concentrate our efforts, and if the silver
panned out don’t have the eagle stamp-
ed on- it we sample the outcropping in
every saloon within a radius of ten
miles and take a fresh chew of tobac-
co. Tlieii we get to work in earnest,
salt the dump and go east and sell all
the stock we can. We return, renew our
grub pile, pack it into the cabin and

- waitfor spring to open and the snow to

go off. During this period we amuse
ourselves playing seven up for the
drinks. We then import a mining and
civil engineer, run a few levels, cross-
cut for another assessment, get it, cave
in the shaft and abandon the property.
Then’ ’——- The Sheep mountaineer paused
foramoment to catch his breath, but
the moment was fatal to his learned dis-
course, for the college bred young man
from the land of the rising sun feebly
reached for his pick, staggered slowly
to his feet, looked wildly through the

Antananarivo. ,
' PORT LOUIS, Island of Mauritius, Oct.

island of :Madagascar announce that the,

been advancing upon the capital for many '

weeks past, captured Antananarivo on

bosistra. The news was brought to the
coast by couriers from Vatomaudry on
Sept. 80. Dispatches received from Tam-
stave say that Faralatra was bombarded
by the French 011 Oct. 3 and that it was
attacked by assault on the following day.

PARIS, Oct. 8. —A dispatch received
here from Port Louis, island of Mauritius,
late this morning announced the capture
of Antananarivo, capital of the island of
Madagascar, by the French troops, and
caused great relief to the government, as
it has been recognized for some time past
that the defeat of the French troops meant
a. change of ministry. The news quickly
spread throughout the city, causing great
excitement and much rejoicing.

France and Madagascar have been at
loggcrheads for over ten years past, chiefly
over the right of the government of "Mad-
agascar to act independently of the French
resident in granting exequaturs to for-
eign consular agents and consuls. Accord-
ing to the French, by the treaty of De-
cember, 1885, the French resident and a
military guard of French troops were to
reside at the capital and control the for-
eign relations of Madagascar, making the
island, to all intents and purposes a
French protectorate. The government of
Madagascar has all along denied that the

treaty referred to gave France the rights '

she claimed, holding that M. Le Myrc do
Vilcrs, the French diplomatic agent, in
1887, entered into an engagement with
Madagascar, on behalf ‘of France, to the
effect that the exequaturs of consuls and
consular agents should be given in the fu~
turc as in the past by the queen of Mada-
gascar and that the later treaty did not
change the situation. Roughly speaking,
on this question is based the dispute which
led to disturbance, during which the repre-
sentatives of France were insulted by the
populace and slighted by the government
of, Madagascar. and which eventually led
to War.‘
