CHICAGO, Oct. 20.—A crisp, invigorat~
lng atmosphene, its touch of frost gently
tempered by the genial rays of the sun
as it looks down from a cloudless sky,

comes as welCome relief after the rain
and drizzle and mist of yesterday and

last night, and might be interpreted as a
special recognition from the elements of
the opening day of the festivities inci-
dent to the dedication of the structures
designed for the purposes of the World’s
Columbian Exposition. The change in

the weather was doubly 'welcome to the
thousands of visitors of greater or less re-
nown already upon the ground, and who
yesterday were commiserating with one
another over the prospect that the great
event in prospective bade fair to be
marred by the unpropitiousness of the
elements.

Not less grateful, either, are the peo-
ple of Chicago themselves. Yesterday
the work of decorating had perforce to
be suspended, and the flags and banners
and streamers that had already been
hung upon the outer walés commenced
to betray evidences of a drooping spirit

- such as is popularly supposed to possess
a drowning rat, but today, under the in-
spiration of the sunshine, the Stars and
Stripes and tri-colored bunting are again
floating proudly and an army of degra-
tors are at work.

Apparently the hotels are already as
full as they need be. There are crowds
at the large ones and small ones alike,
and at some of them, notably at the
Auditorium, the Palmer and the Grand
Pacific, it is difficult at times to force a
way through the crowds that fill the
rotundas.

But large as the crowd already on the
ground is, it is not a circumstance to
to that which may be expected by sun-
down. Special trains packed with men
and women of note and distinction are
speeding Chicagoward from nearly every
state and territory, while the ordinary
trains are running in two, three and four
sections.

It was well toward daylight this morn-
ing when Gov. Tuttle of New Hampshire
with his staff and party reached the city,
their train being several hours late. Tne
carriages on hand were barely sufficient
for the accommodation of the ladies. and
so the governor headed the procession on
foot to the Wellington.

' There wasa large crowd at the Union
station at 10 o’clock to extend a welcome
to Gov. McKinley and the delegation
from the Buckeye state. Tney cam-e in
force, over 250 of them, m amber-s of ooth
branches of the legis aturc, representa-
tives of the judicial bencn, o; the various
state departments and the members of
the state board of world’s fair managers.

Thirty-five carriages had been pro-
vided for the party, and these were
quickly filled while those not fortunate
enough to secure a seat or too proud to
get up alongside the Cll‘iV;l‘ Were content
to fall behind an 1 iail the pzocession to
the V:ctoria Howl.

The Buckeye train had bareiv been
gotten out of the depot- when t at hav-
ing the deegatfion from the Kwstone
state rozled in. Gov. P Liaison was one
of the first. to al:ght il- in he front end
of the second car. Tn: remainder of the
party. to a iota: of nearlv 10.), was midi
up 0 the governor’s staff, state officials
and members of the state world’s fair
comm ssion.

HES asses SCATTERED.

Singular Funeral of a Young Maryland
Suicide at Atiantic Cizy.

ALLANTic CITY, N. J., Oct. 2).-- “I de-
hire thai my body be cremated and that
my ashes be scattered to the four winds
ovar the Atlant.c Ocean” were the writ-
ten instructions left behind by William
Meyers, a young Marylander, who, tired
of life, committed suicide several days
ago. It was to carry out this unique
provision of his will that three friends of
the deceased journeyed to this city today
bearing with them a small tin box con-
taining the ashes of Meyers.

They had had the body cremated in
Baltimore yesterday. It was after six
o’clock when they reached the beach.
The small tuneral cortege solemnly
wende: its way out to the end of the
pier. It was preceded by a lawyer carry-
.ng the tin casket. There the box was
opened, and with the expression, “From
dust thou camest and§o dust shalt thou

 

return,” the content of the box were
scattered in the form 0 a cross over the
waves beneath. 1 This over the company
returned to the board walk again, paid
the watchman and disappeared.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 20.—-Ex-Gov.
Gray, it is said, will enter the cabinet of
Grover Cleveland Ias postmaster-general
if the latter is elected this fall. This is a

current report, and it is believed to be
true. Ex-Gov. Gray refuses to discuss it
or to any anythin regarding his recent
conference with r. Cleveland at Gray
Gables.-

A man who has long been in the ex-
overnor’a confidence, and who is be-
loved to speak authoritatively, says that

the interchange of opinions between
Gray and Cleveland at Gray Gables was
' of the heart possible nature. Mr. Cleve-
land said that the state would have been
recognized with a cabinet osltion in 1885
had it not been that Ind no, furnished

words that in conference with his friends

A Nine Days’ Wonder in a Small
Town.

FACTS AND DETAILS FROM OUR
OWN CORRESPONDENT.

Surprised Many But Does Not Sur-
prise Us.

Mansfield. Ohio, is not a large place.
but it has certainly experienced a great
sensation. .

The people are not done talking
about it yet, and indeed it Will furnish
the subject for conversation for a long
time to come,as well as'food for thought.

Our correspondent, C. C. Coulter,
who is a prominent and influential citi-
zen of Mansfield and agent of the Rock-
ford (Ill.) Silver Plate 00., has fur-
nished us with the facts and details.
which we are positive will prove most
interesting to our readers.

“I have a brother, Harry E. Ooulter,
21 years of age,” writes Mr. Coulter,
who had never done a day ’8 work in his
life : never ranten rods in his life—in-
deed, could not even walk fast. -

“Heart disease was his trouble. Last
fall he got the grip and went down,
down, down.

“Two of our best physicians treated
him.

"His tongue was coated badly, had
backache. urine high~colored, brick
dust sediment—worst I ever saw.

“His stomach was almost as hard as a
board, in fact, we gave up all hopes of
his life.

“He quit the doctorsand commenced
using Di'. Greene’s Nervura blood and
nerve remedy, and nothing else, and
the third day was better. He is now bet-
ter than he ever was in his life, can run
and do violent exercise and not suffer in
the least.

 

‘.

HARRY E. COULTER.

“He says he never felt better in his
life, in fact, this wonderful medicine,
he tells me, Saved his life.

“He coaxed me to take this remedy.
and I was troubled something as he had
been,-only my heart is all right. I had
been doctoring since last fall to clear
up'my system, but without beneficial
results. I have now used only two bot-
tles of Dr. Greene’s Nervui-a blood and
nerve remedy and feel like a new man.
In fact. I am well, and I write this be-
cause I feel so grateful to the remedy
for saving my brother’s life and my
health.

"This isthe greatest medicine I ever
heard of, and I am sure that if you
knew my brother’s condition before be
commenced the use of Dr. Greene’s
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, the
cure would much surprise you.”

We do not wonder that this remarka-
ble restoration to health is looked upon
as almost a miracle in Mansfield, where,
perhaps, the marvellous virtues of this
remedy were until now not known, but
the cure does not surprise us in the
least, for it is something which is tak-
ing place constantly in our vicinity, no
(lay, scarcaly an hour. in fact. passing
in which we do not learn of it curing
some one. who has; been suffering from
nervous weakness. l:l')ut,l «,lisorder, kid-
ney or liver Complaints. insomnia, ma-
laria or stomach trouble. It is a fact
that this wonderful medicine cures the
sick, and it is perfectly harmless to use,
being purely vegetable. Druggists keep
it for $1.

It is the discovery and prescription
of Dr. Greene, of 35 \V. 14th Street,
New York, the famous specialist in cur-
ing nervous and chronic diseases, who
has the largest practice among the sick
of any physician in the United States,
and who can be consulted free person-
ally Or by letter.

LONDON. Oct. 33.——The reminiscences of
Dr. Le Caron, or Thomas Philip Beech,
the spy for the British government, who
gained such unenviabie notoriety in 1889
by his disclosures on behalf of the Tim :5
before the Parnell commiSsion, have been
made public. He declares that when he
and General O’Neill were received at the
White House in Washington by Presi-
dent Johnson the President told General
O’Neill that he sympathized with. the
Fenians and was willing to do all in his
power to assist the Fenian movement.
“You must remember,” said P ~esldent
Johnson, “that I gave you full fiVe days
before issuing the procaamation Stopping
you. In God’s name, what more dio vou
want? If you could not get there in five
days you could never get there”. And
then, as Presuient, I was compelled to
enforce the neutrality laws or be de-
nounced on emery aide.” Le Caron de-
scribes to the utmost detail the Whale
Fenian movement against Canada, show-
ing how he became acquainted with
every man of any importance connectei
with the movement. He says that only
twice was he in danger of discovery. The
first occasion was when he incautiously
took down the names of Fenians in his
note book. He was denounced, tried and
acquitted by comrades. He resigned his
position in order to emphasize his inno-
cence, and was begged to remain in the
organization. After considerable persua-

, tion he relented' and secured a stronger
position than ever. The second occasion
was when he was arrested in Canada as a
Fenian, and only escaped the fury of the
populace and discovery by making a
clean breast to the mayor of the place,
who conveyed him secretly out of the
city.

Le Caron relates that some of the sub-
ordinate and less fortunate Fenians, sus:
pecting one of his government accom-
plices, Rose, as a spy on the Fenian
movement, waylaid, robbed and thrashed
Rose while he (Le Caron) was obliged to
applaud their actions.

The Irish part of the memoirs is of less
interest from the fact that all was re-
vealed before the Parnell Commission.
Le Caron says the Can na Gaei’s wild
plans included a trea:y with Russia, the
manufacture of a submarine torpedo
boat to inflict terrible damage on the
British navy, plans to assassinate the

queen, to kidnap the rince of Wales
and to rescue Michal Dav.tt from
prison.

In describing an interview with Par-
nell in Parliament, he declares that‘ Par-
nell’s remarks were like a bomb-Shell to.
him. He says: “Parnell confessed his
belief that nothing but the force o'f arms

open movement of insurrection, =‘aiid said
they had £100,000 in the treasury.
dismissed the position of homeland

and defended the American policy.
parted with him by assuring him that'
Would do all he wished."

LaCaron then gives the text of a secret
circular prepared for a dynamite cam-

home rule scheme being inadequate. =

In regard to the modern Irish-Ameri-
can agitator, he says: “Gold is his god.
He attains his ends by jobbery, trickery
and delusion Of the meanest and most
despicable type. He bravely and bluster-'
ingly advocates desperate enterprises
from the safe distance of 3000 miles.

Le Caron says that Dr. Gallagher, who
who controlled the dynamite " campaign,
was often in Parliament, and, he heard,
had been introduced to Mr. Gladstone.
One plot devised was to blow up parlia-
ment by throwing bombs on the table in
front of the speaker. Another project
was to steal the Stone of Scone, which
serves as the seat of the coronation chair
in \Vestminister Abbey, on which the
Irish kings were believed’ to have been
crowned for centuries on the Hill of Tara.
La Caron makes hardly a trace of an ef-
fort tojustify the statements he made
before the Parnell commission or to re-
fute hostile criticisms. Still he gives his
readers the impressmh of truthfulness
that he conveyed at the time of the com-
mission’s inquiry.
