and organize.
WAsnmorou, Sept. 23.—Raiuy weather
ushered in the fourth day of Grand Army
week, and a. drizzling' rain made the
streets sloppy and the atmosphere heavy.
The old soldiers left the city: in great
numbers last night and this" morning.
and the railroad companies will be kept
busy from now until tomorrow evening
moving the immense crowds they
brought to the city.
Although the crowd has thinned out
very perceptibly, the G. A. R. uniform is
still omnipresent, and the public build-
ings, principal streets, hotel and Grand
Army quarters all have a full. quota of
veterans. This is the last day of the
Grand Army festivities and business
meetings in Washington. The program
arranged for the enjoyment of the fish,
tors closes tomorrow with excursions
down the river and all-day camp fires. A
. number of the posts here will hold in.
formal reunions at battlefields on their
way home. ' -
he second days' session of the nation.
al mcampment is the principal event of
the day, and the selection of a comman-
der-in-chief for the coming year, the
principal work of the encampment. . The
.choice of the delegates for the successor
to Commander-in-Chief Palmer was prac-
tically a foregone conclusion and A. G.
'Weissert of Milwaukee, Wis., has been
chosen by acclamation commander-in-
chief of the G. A. R.,to succeed General
Palmer, Comrade Lincoln of this city, his
competitor withdrawing.

Stark County, 0., Aug. 7, 1844. He was
graduated at Racine High School and
University of‘Michigan, the last named

His war record is a worthy one. Early
in September, 1851, he enlisted in the
Eighth Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry
Regiment the regiment that had with it
the eagle, id Abe, in all its’campaigns.)
He was with his regiment in all the
battles in which it engaged up to Nash-
ville, Tenn. In that battle he was
severely wounded. As soon as able he
rejoined his regiment while still using
crutches, served over four years, and was
brevetted for meritorious conduct in
battle.:His wounds have never healed and
are at times very painful. He was ap-
pointed to a cadetship at West Point but
on account of his wounds could not accept
the appointment. .
Comrade Weissert joined the Grand
Army of the Republic at Madison, Wis.,
in 1865, and from that time up to the
present, has been acoustant worker in
its ranks, occu yihg every position from
oficer of the ay to department come

was twice elected in Wisconsin, the last
time by acclamation. By the business
men of Milwaukee he was unanimously

THE WOM‘AN’S RELIEF CORPS.
Warring Elements Still at Work—Mrs
Logan Carries the Day.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—-The Woman’s
Relief Corps met with the usual depart-
ment row at its convention here this
week. This time the department of the
Potomac contains the warring elements.
Mrs. John A. Logan and Miss Clara Bar-
ton are members of the organization
which failed to receive the recognition
of National President Sanders. But they
worked with the Citizens’ executive com-
mittee, and through them the national
convention was invited to meet in New
York Avenue Church, where Lincoln’s
funeral services were held. Mrs. Sanders,
however since coming to Washington,
arranged to hold the convention in the
First Baptist Church. This challenge
met an equally bold response, and for
nearly ten hours, with intermission for
lunch and dinner,the battle of the de-
partment of the Potomac was waged.
Finally at 10 o’clock the convention vot-
ed to accept the invitation to meet in
New York Avenue Church, thus practi-
cally repudiating the president’s action '
The convention met this morning i
New York Avenue Church. The reporIi
of President Sanders showed that during
the year $34,138 had been turned over to
posts. . Cash fpr relief, $61,463; relief
other than money. $38,9ll- balance in the

took place during'the day, and which is
unique in the history of the G. A. IL, is
the reunion of army, nurses, of whom
there are almost forty in attendance;
Two of their number are well known to
New England veterans. Harriet Dame,
the president of the association, was
nurse of the Second New Hampshire, who
won national fame by her intelligent and
faithful care of hundreds of suffering
New England boys in blue. She ~is now
nearly 80 years of age, yet she is phenom-
inally active. Rebecca Wiswell of Ply-
mouth, Mesa, who is now over 90 years
old, another famous nurse, sat through-

terested as ever in the-welfare of the
' boys she nursed. ‘ . .

THE. CHINESE QUESTION.
Miainforrnatlon Concerning the Action of
the Sis: Companies.
Sax Faaucrsco,Sept.23.—It was learned
last night that the 'Six Companies sent
out a commltiee of several men last even-
.ing to visit all stores in the Chinese quar-
ters and secure the signatures of all
merchants to a petition to be sent to the
Chinese government, asking that govo
crnment to send agents to this country.
first,to make themselves acquainted with
all the circumstances of ' the registration
act by conferring with the Chinese in
this city, end then to proceed to Wash-
- ington and request President Harrison to
take some action to nullify the law.
It is declared now that the circulars sl-
leged to have been issued by the Six
Companies directing all Chinese laborers
inpthe United States to disregard the
registration set were hoaxes. ‘It, seems
the paper that published the alleged cir-
culars made a mistake in printing the
Chinese text of one and the translation
of another. The president of the Six
Companies says he had advised the Chi-
nese laborers that the registration law is
unconstitutional, and suggesting that
they do not comply with it.
HORRIBLE _ BARBARISM.
(nhumun Treatment of n, Einnish ‘Woman
’ ' Convicted of Forgery.
ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 23.- In April
last Mrs. Aina Sainio, 23 years old, the
wife of a professor in the state college at
’Tavastehuus, Finland, was found guilty
of poisoning her husband, and. inac-
cordance with the mediasvai l'aw,which is
still in force there, she was sentenced to
be beheaded and her body' to be-affixrd
to a beacon and burned.
After her conviction the case was car
ried to the court of appeal, and today’s
decision was handed down, affirming the
judgment of the trial court and adding
additional punishment to be inflicted on
the unfortunate woman.
It transpired during the trial that Mrs.
Saiuio had forged her husband’s name to
checks for small sums some time before
his death, and for this offence the court
of appeal orders that her right hand be
cut off. Then she will be decapitated
and her body fastened to a stake, covered
with inflammable, material. and set on
re.
TWINS J OINEDtTOGETHER.
One Child was Dead and the Other’s pm
May Be Saved by Surgeons.
ASPEN, Col., Sept 23.—Dr. T. L. Ash-
baugh was called this afternoon to attend
Mrs. John Hughes, who gave birth to
twins, both boys, joined by an oval carti-
lage. This strange freak binds the
children together facing each other; the,
connection beginlnng at the‘bottom of the
breast-bone and continuing three or
four inches downward, and is about two
inches in witdh.
The physicians believe one was born
dead while the other is doing very nicel
and able to make himself plainly hear .
The babes weigh eight pounds each. The
mother is below the average size, being
scarcely-five feet in height and weigh-
ing~ less than one hundred pounds.
Strong pressure is being brought to bear
by persuasion to allow the physicians
to perform an operationpwhereby it is
impossible to save the life of the child
favored by nature.”
KOSSUTH DEGLINES.
He Will Not Let His Sons Represent Him
in Hungary.
TURIN, Sept. 23.-—Replyiug to an invio
tation to allow his sons to represent him,
at the unveiling of a memorial in the
church at Tallya, in which he was christ-
ened, Louis Kossuth, the Hungarian
patriot, has written: “I am resolved
never to set my foot in Hungary as long
as the country recognizes the emperor of
Austria as its king. I.» am 'a living pro-
test against Hungary’s faithiessness and
my creed must therefore be to refuse
myself the pleasure of'again seeing my
home. I Was expelled from the country
with my sons and it would be ridiculous
to let them appear in Hungary for mere
vanity’ssake. It is terrible for me to
think that with all the blows of my pur-
poseiess and jo less life I should have to
bear the bur an of living beyond my
ninetieth birthday.” .

WILD ANIMALS D'OMESTICATED “BY
MEN OF THE~WOOLY WEST.
Phil Fopte and His Two Mountain
Lions in a Faro‘Bnnk—Frank Mon-
’ roe’s Pet Bear—Bob Pearce's Timber
Wolf and Her Pranks.
The recent “ holding up” of. la faro
bank in Cheyenne by Phil Foote at the
point of» a pair of, heavy caliber, self-
cocking arguments calls to mind the pets
that this man had while dealing faro in
Idaho springs, 00]., in 1887, says a Den-
ver correspondent of the New} York
Press. During a trip into Garfield
county, Phil came across a pair of mount-
ain lion cubs, and after-a tussle with
the mother brought her scalp in for the
bounty“ and her cubs fer pets. Nellie
and JaCk, as they were known, grew
strong and sturdy under the care of
Phil, who petted and fondled the little
things, and fed and nursed them until
they were full grown and. extra large
animals. The figure of Phil, six feet tall,
walking down the main street of town
with a lion on each side, was one not
readily forgotten; and when he
sat dealing faro, with his pets
in place, his. was the most orderly
layout in the whole house, ’and
all disputes were speedily and quietly
settled. Phil had a way, while under
the influence of his favorite brand of
“mountain lymph,” of declaring that
he owned the town, and to prove the
assertion would stretch himself on two
chairs across the sidewalk ' and go to
sleep, Nellie and Jack faithfully guard-
ing their master. , Policeman Matt Car-
roll attempted to arrest Foote at one
time, but when he was told that the
lions had to go, too, he held back and
attempted to argue the matter, and
finally laid his hand on Foote’s shoulder.
The pets each lifted a lip and showed a
gleaming fang and Carroll beat a hasty
retreat. Foote, after a night spent in
sobering up, walked into court next
morning and gave himself up. He was
promptly fined $100 for resisting arrest,
which he as promptly paid. The lions
were afterward sold toa traveling circus.
Then there was J. C. Johnson, of
Glenwood, who had a. magnificent male
lion, which was of rather surly disposi-
tion and not inclined to allow anybody
but his master to approach him. J ohn-
son was called to Aspen for a few days
on business, and before going chained
the beast up in his back yard and left
water and a liberal supply of rations
within reach. He was detained longer
than he expected, and one afternoon the '
attention of some boys was attracted to
the spot by growls. The youngsters im-
mediately began to enjoy themselves by
pelting the hungry and thirsty brute
with stones. The lion flew into a rage
and screamed ‘and tugged at the any-
thing but stout chain. The noise at-
tracted Marshal Jack Scott, who shot
the animal, delivered the scalp to the
County Clerk and received in return the
bounty. When Johnson returned he
was hopping mad and begansuit against
the county for the value of his pet. The
matter was compromised before the trial
came off. ‘ ,
Frank Monroe, 3. civil engineer, had a
pet bear which he picked up in the
"mountains when a cub. He had to kill ‘
the mother and a brother cub before he
got possession of “ Clarisse,” and when
he walked into the clerk’s ofiice with
two bear scalps under one arm and a
cub under the other his clothes were in
shreds and a portion of his right cheek
clawed off. But the boys got to teasing
the young bear sojthat she finally became
ugly and was ordered to be shot. '
The late Bob Pearce had a. female tim-
ber wolf which he got while a cub at
New Castle. She was a. mischievous
brute, and had no sooner attained her
full size and strength than she started in
to kill all the dogs in town, and very
nearly succeeded. Then Bob chained .her
to his front stoop, but she would occa-
sionally snap the chain and go rummag-
ing through neighbors’ yards, trampling
down kitchen gardens, killing chickens
and raising Cain genera-11y. All the bills
were promptly paid by Bob. But there
came a time when bill paying became ‘
monotonous, and ' the wolf was quietly
shipped to Berkeley. But the bills came
in with the old-time regularity, and Bob '
paid a few, and then came down on all
hands and had every cent refunded, with ' '
the considerable addition of- mountain
interest.
District Attorney J ohnstone went out
with a bear party and returned with a
cub, which he taught toolimb the flag- .. »
staff in front of his house, much 'to- the
delight of the small boy. The bear is
now in Aspen. ' _.
Young George Manly, sen of Dr.
Manly, had half a dozen trained skunks,
which performed a number of very in-
terseting tricks. Arthur Hull, who
played ball with the Leadvilles and then
joined the Minneapolis nine, also tried to
make a pet of a skunk. He finally ‘
reached the dismal conclusion that his
attempt was a frank failure. ‘ ‘
Jim Snellbaker, who cared for a sec-
tion house at Aspen Junction, near In-
dependence Pass, had a small herd of
chipmunks, which he taught to sit- up
and spar with' each other in fashion
pugilistic. They were his only compan- -
ions in his lonely cabin, but he could
~ always spare an hour to show, their lac-
complishments to the passing prospector.
Judge Noonan, “J. W. Durand, one of
Glenwood’s leading merchants, and sev. '
«eral others had tame deer, while Lige
Cravens, a ‘noted desperado, had a pet
bob cat. When Cravens finally ran.
against a “ huskier ” man than himself.
and all that was mortal was censigne‘d to
the boot heel graveyard on the mount-
ain’s side, that cat took possession of
the mound, refusing meat and drink." I
and One morning his faithful body, stifl
and cold, was found lying over the spot
where his master slept. '

scourge. The fact that San Antonio has
several cases of cholera excites the whole
state. Health Officer Swearin fears that

been starving, and is so weak physically
that if the disease gains a foothold it
