An East Norwalk resident who came
up from Wilson Point on a Tramway
car, last night, and was dropped ofi' at

ST. LOUIS ASKS AID.

The Municipal Council Makes an Appeal
to other Cities.

ST. LOUIS, J une .—-Both houses of the
municipal assembly of St. Louis have
adopted resolutions askln outside aid for
the, tornado sufferers. T e appeal calls
attention to the calamity which has be-
fallen the city, rendering many artisans
destitute and homeless, and asks for all the
aid that can be sent. All donations are
to be sent to the mayor or police commis-
sion of 'St. Louis. This action Is not In
accord with the position taken by the
mayor In declaring that outside aid Is not
needed. The loss of life in EastSt. Louis
has assumed far less serious proportions
as the days have "passed. ‘

Instead of being nearly 200, as Is claimed
by many, the list of dead numbers 100
Identified, with tWO—a man and a woman
—-unknown. In addition to this, one man
Is missing, and eight are so severely In-
jured that they will probably die. The
known list of dead In St. Louis foots up
141 names, all of these bodies having
been recovered. Besides this It Is known
that 13 persons have been killed In the
storm, 8 In the river, whose names are
known, and 5 within this city, whose
names are unkndwn. None of these bodies
has been recovered.

0f the 141 dead bodies recovered in this
city, bht one remains unidentified. The
list of missing persons has diminished
somewhat from the number reported Sun-

 

day. The IIst- contains the names of 88 -

persons, not Including 11 said to have
been lost from the steamer LIbbie Conger.

patchA from Lima, Peru, which says that

Lo DON, June 3.—Thc London Press
assoc ation says that deputations consist-
ing of the Friends of Peace and represent-
atives of various religious and social bod-
ies will wait upon Mr. Joseph Pulitzer,
proprietor of the New York World, on Fri-
day next to thank him for the “noble
manner in which his paper upheld the
cause of peace and friendly relationship
with Great Britain during the recent
crisis.”

The President Disapproves.

WASHINGTON, June 3.—'1‘hc indications
are that the general deficiency appropria-
tion bill will not receive the president’s
signature, owing principally to objections
to the items appropriating $1,500,000 for
the payment of French spoliations and
Bowman not claims. It Is probable. how-
ever, that the blIl will be permitted to
become a law without signature.

PRECIOUS STONES IN AMERICA.

SEVERAL asterias, or star stones, have
been picked up in North Carolina. and
Georgia.

SAPPHIRES of small size but great
brilliancy have been found in North
Carolina.

AN emerald green sapphire was
some years ago found in Franklin coun-
ty, N. C.

THE California diamonds are general-
ally very small, ranging in value from
810 to 850.

IN 1884 the value of the precious
stones mined in this country somewhat
exceeded 630,000.

EVERY precious stone known to the
lapidary has been found within the
limits of the United States.

THE Spinel, often sold for the oriental
ruby, has been found in New England,
Virginia and North Carolina.

RUBIES Of small size have been found
in North Carolina and Virginia, and, it
is claimed, also in Colorado and New
Mexico.

NORTH CAROLINA diamonds are usual-
ly associated with itacolumite, or flexi-
ble sandstone, quite plentiful in certain
parts of that state.

THE best crystals of topaz found in
this country.._come from Colorado. In
the Platte mountains one has been
found weighing- 125 carats.

CALIFORNIA diamonds are found in
all the colors, from a. brilliant white to
a clear black, together with rose, pink,
yellow, blue and green.

A' Brokerfs Forgetfulness Leads. to th
’ ‘ Foundation of an “Honesty Fund."

Late one afternoon the past winter
the manager of a. br'okeragefhouse in
New York was preparing to go home,
and had removal 3. coin from his
trousers pocket to use for car fare
When he discovered that he had left his
cuffs in the Wardrobe in an adjoining
room. He placed the coin on the top of
his desk but was delayed on his return
by a. clerk on a. matter of business. As a

,result the money remained on his desk
after his departure. '
, He remembered the circumstance,
however,when he reached his home,but
concluded that the piece was. lost.
Much to his great surprise, though, he
found the quarter on the desk when he
reached his office next morning. At
least a dozen persons must have seen it
lying there after his departure the
night before.

The ' circumstance impressed him
deeply and he thought of it many
times that day while in the battle for
preference on the floor of the stock ex-
change. When he started for home
that night he purposely forgot the
money and the next morning he was
not surprised to find it still on the desk.
With a few strokes-ofhis pen he made
a. small sign bearing these words:
“Honesty Fund” and placed it beside
the quarter. Business kept him on the
exchange most of that day, but when
he started for home that night 10! the
fund had grown to seventy-five cents.
It was not touched that night and the
next evening it had swelled to nearly
two dollars. He had no idea as to what
he would do with the money at the
time, but he concluded that to longer
let it remain exposed over night would
be a severe temptation to some weak
person and so he locked it up.

Thereafter it was under lock and
key at night, but was always exposed
during business hours, but how it
grew! Business friends, messengers
from other houses, clerks and cus-
tomers contributed to it, until at pres-
ent it amounts to almost seventy-five
dollars. The disposition of the money
puzzled him for some time, but he cou-
cluded to give a dinner to the employes
as soon as it reached one hundred dol-
lars. '

AFRICAN BUTTERFLIES.

 

Stanley Brought Some from the Dark
Continent to a New York Man.

Berthold N eumoegen, who died in
New York the other day, was noted as
an amateur entomologist and spent
over twenty years in forming a. remark-
able collection of over one hundred
thousand rare and beautiful butterflies,
says the Newark Times.

This was his hobby and all his leis-

ure was devoted to improving the col:

lection. There are but two known col-
lections in the world that excel in
variety and number the one gathered
by Mr. N eumoegen. One is in the p0..-
session of the British museum, London,
and the other is in Paris.

This work was a. labor of love with
Mr. N eumoegen, and he would spend

hours in a ‘room on the top floor of his:

residence, which contains the collec.
tion, arranging and rearranging the
beautiful specimens of the insect world,
in which he took so much pride. He
generally kept in stock an immense
number of butterflies for the purpose
of exchange, and these he kept apart
from his collection, not one of which
would he dispose of unless he felt cer-
tain of being able to replace it.

Butterfly collectors are continually
exchanging specimens and Mr. Neu-
moegen kept two men employed in re-
ceiving and shipping- specimens. The
largest shipment made by him was
eight years ago, when he shipped twen-
ty thousand butterflies to Europe.

Livingstone, the great African ex-
plorer, furnished Mr. N eumoegen with
some of his rarest specimens. Others
were furnished by Henry M. Stanley,
Lieut. Schwatka and members of the
Greely relief expedition. Among them
were-abutterflies from Franklin bay,
from the shores of Greenland, from
Lakes Tanganyika. and Victoria Nyan-
za, and from Labrador, Thibet, Alaska,
China, Siberia, Turkestnn and Kamt-
chatka and from the Himalayas and
Rocky mountains and the Alps.

OBJECTED TO BLOOMERS.

 

Landlady Would Not Allow One of Her _,

Boarders to Wear the Dress at Table.
Hard and awful to contemplate are

put up with—that is, that particular
type of the new woman who doesn’t
like to wear skirts and prefers knicker-

‘ the New York World. In England th
boarding house landladies are very
much aroused over the subject and are
thinking of forming an association to
rule out all women who wear what is
known in the words of the day as “re.-
tional dress.”

In this country there is an interest-
ing anecdote, with its'. scene laid in Ann

. Arbor, Mich., relating to one of the col-

lege girls who was very much “ad-
vnnced.”

. There was a. girl staying at one of the
boarding houses in the village who
persisted in wearing trousers that were
more masculine even -than “bifurcated
skirts.” This attire disturbed the land-
lady intensely and in tearful tones she
pleaded with the young woman to dis-
card the distasteful garments. But the
girl was put upon her mettle and re-
sisted the landlady’s pleas until that
wrathful individual came out with the
following ultimatum: .

“You cannot eat at my table and
wear bloomers at, the same time.”

It is not correct for the “new woman”
to weep, and therefOre the knicker-
bockered girl shed no tears. At the
very next meal that was served, how'-
ever, the other boarders noticed that
she wore a. skirt. Immediately after
dinner she took it off and five minutes
later was seen parading down the
streets in masculine garments once
more.

White Metal Advocates Will Have a
Majority In Chicago.

FIVE HUNDRED DELEGATES.

The New York Herald Says More Than
That Number “’1“ Favor the Free
Coinage of Silver In the Dem-
ocratic Convention.

NEW YORK, June. 3.—Reports received
by telegraph from New York Herald cor-

respondents in all parts of the Unltod;

States show that a majority of the dele-
gates to the Democratic national conven-
tion In Chicago will advocate the adoption
of a platform In favor of the free coinage
of silver. 9 The complete victory of the all-
ver men In Kentucky seemed to show that
the sentiment In favor of the white metal
Was growing among the Democrats In
states which have heretofore been regard
ed as for the gold standard. In order that
the real sentiment of the Democrats
throughout the country might be known
The Herald Instructed Its correspondents
In every state and territory to telegraph
brief summaries of the sItuatlon, and the
result of this poll of the states Is shown in

this table:

These figures show an overwhelming
majority for free silver. W. F. Harrity,
chairman of the Democratic national com-
mittee, and Mr. Shoerin, the secretary,
have given out figures In Chicago which
make it appear that the sound money men
have. a fighting chance to win, but they
concede to the silver men nearly enough

:votes to make a majority of the conven-

tion.

Oregon Goes Republican.

PORTLAND, 0n, J un'c 3.—Oreg‘on has
gone Republican by a large plurality. On
the only test of strength throughout the
state—for supreme court justice—Bean
(Rep) Is elected by a large plurality, with
Gaston (Pop) second. The Republican
vote is not lessened, but the Populist vote
has Increased with the aid of the Dem-
ocrats. The Democrats have apparently
voted strongly for free silver with a view
of securing such advocates In congress. It
is probable that Thomas H. Tongue of
Hillsboro (Rep). with free silver predilec-
tions, has been elected congressman from
the First district.

Congressman Ellis, Republican free all-
ver candidate for congress In the Second
district, has undoubtedly been elected,
though by a decreased plurality.

Ex—Governor Sylvester Pennoyer has
been elected mayor of Portland city, de-
feating Silas Cohen, (Rep) and General
Beebe (Ind. ).

May Be Silver, Says Harrlty.

CHICAGO, June 3.——William M. Harrity,
chairman of the Democratic national com-
mittee, is here attending the meeting of
the subcommittee looking after arrange-
ments for the copventlon. Discussing the
financial situation In the national conven—
tion, Mr. Harrlty said:

“I believe a fairly amicable adjugtment

'of the Issue will be reached. It Is possible

the free silver element will have a mhjor-
ity sufficiently large to control the con-
vention. No. I do not look for a split. In
fact, I am. satisfied there wIll be non'e.
Democrats as a general thing recognize
the right of the majority to rule, and they
are willing to accept the résijlt. Furthdr-
more, I feel that the St. Longs convention

. will have the effect of clarl ying the at-

mosphere a good deal for us. We can judge
better then what we want to do.”

Democracy’s Convention Hall.

CHICAGO, June 3.—-All the members or
the national Democratic committee who
attended the opening performance of Buf-
falo Bill’s Wild West show were highly

pleased with the acoustic properties of the

convention ‘bullding. Secretary Sheerln
sold, “I could hear Colonel Cody as dis-
tinctly as If he were speaking In the Au-
ditorium theater, and the general opinion
Is that there will be no dIfiiculty‘in hear-
Ing all the proceedings of the conven-
tion.” The Coliseum, which-is opposite
the World’s fair grounds, cost $350,000.
The seating capacity is 20,000, and the

building is the largest of Its kind In the

world.

Not to Accept Second Place. .
BOSTON, June 3.——The Boston Journal
prints the following dispatch from‘Ban-
gor, M9,, signed by J- H. Manley: “I

. have never written to Mr. Hanna or to

any other persOn that the Hon. Thomas
Reed would accept the nomlnatlon f l
vice president. 0n the contrary, I know
that Mr. Road will not accept this nomi-
Latio'n under any circumstances. We ex.
pact to nominate him for president.”
