The Land of 11mm...
The twilight deepens, the: shadows creep,
The moonlight quivers insilver beams,
And silent we step in the boatof sleep,
And drift to the shadowy land of dreams.
Oh, mystic land where the dead return.
And warm lips cling in the deathless kiss;
And the years are not, and the weary learn
That anguish dies in the arm .3 bliss.’
Afar in that holy, unknown land,
Ambition gathers the flowers of fame;
And fortune reaches her golden wand,
And pure and white is the soul of shame.
The shackles fall from the prisoner there, ‘
The peasant sits on the throne a king;
The blind eyes open to all that’s fair,
And deaf ears hear, and the dumb lipl sing.
Dreams! Who can tell what messengers stray
Around us all in the hush of night;
When the form lies still as the soulless clay,
And we follow ourselves through love and
light.
And who shall say but the land of dreams
Is the land of the living, after all;
And daily life, with its scars and scams,
Is only a dream when the shadows fall.

. Work for Young Explorers.
' People are accustomed to think that
all the world has now been explored ex-
cept, Central Africa and the polar re-
gions. As a matter of fact, there are
portions of the American continent
which are as completely unknown to
science as any part of equatorial Africa.
Within the last ten years a young
American naturalist has won renown by
his explorations in the basin of the
Amazon, in Brazil, and a vacation expedi-
tion of college students in Labrador has
resulted in Snportant additions to
geographical knowledge.
Lieut. Schwatka’s explorations in
Alaska and his visit to hitherto unknown
tribes of cave dwellers in Northern
Mexico, revealed the fact that fields are
still open on this continent in which
young men with a serious purpose, a
scientific education and a strong body
may distinguish themselves in geograph-
ical and ethnological research.
In 1890 two large rivers, hitherto un-
known, tributaries of the Amazon, were
discovered by naturalists. A great part
of Guiana, and a. still greater part of the
vast region immediately to the eastward
of the Andes, extending from the fron-
tier of Venezuela to the Argentine Re-
public. remain unknown lands, so far as
certain knowledge is concerned.
Should it all be gone over and accur-
ately mapped out, there would still re-
main to be learned many facts about it,
as well as about the regions already
known, which are of the highest scien-
tific interest, and in the study of which
distinction might be gained. -—Youth’ a

They Know How to Dress.
“ Never heard of a Chinese collapsing
from the heat, did you?” asked a West
side doctor, as he fanned himself vigor-
ously and occasionally tugged away at
his shirt collar. “ They may be heathen,
but they have more common sense in ap-
parel than all of us good Christians com-
bined. I just passed one of the queued
gentry standing at the corner of Madison
and Clark at high noon, the sun pouring
upon the top of his head and the ther-
mometer registering ninety-one in the
shade. He was cool as a cucumber.
“He wore no band about his shirt and
no collar to shirt or blouse. Vest he had
none. You and I have from twenty to
twenty-five thicknesses of cloth close
about our jugulars and then say we are
Christians. Christians know suicide to
be sinful, don’t they? Then how dare
they choke themselves in blistering
weather? And the Chinese isn’t idiot
enough to clinch his undergarments to
his back with perspiration-producing
suspenders, nor wear his shirt inside his
trousers. He afi'ects cool sandals and
light hats, and in all shows a superb re-
gard for his safety. Next to following
the example of our first parents in their
first estate, the Chinese plan in summer
is the most comfortable style of dress
upon the face of the earth.”
“ China’s Sorrow.” .
By its tremendous floods, its unruly
course, its constant outbreaks and the
fearful devastation they cause, the
Hoang-ho, or Yellow River, has earned
the name of “China’s Sorrow,” and
well does it deserve the title}! Rarely
does a year pass without some disaster.
It is almost certain to break, at some
point in its long course, through the
great embankments erected to retain it, .
and to inundate a greater or less tract of
the populous and fertile country through
which it flows. But these annual inun-
dations are as nothing compared to the
more serious outbreaks, says Gold-
thwaite’s Geographical Magazine. Nine
times within the historic era it has
changed its whole course through the
delta to the sea. submerging immense
districts. drowning whole populations
and reducing untold numbers to the ex-
tremity of distress; and it is still an open
question whether it has not, during the
past few years, added a tenth to the rec-
0rd.

The fair Miss Gaswell looked troubled.
Perplexity sat on her brow.
“ What ails you, daughter?” asked her
observant papa.
“ a,” she replied, “ you wouldn’t sus-
pect Mr. Lunnon of untruthfulness,
would you? ”
“No; I would not.”
“Well, pa, he told me the other day
that he hadn’t a relative in this coun-
try. r:
“ I think that is correct. They are all
in England.”
“ Just so. But I overheard him tell-
ing Mr. Dinwiddle that he had taken his
overcoat to his uncle. How do you rec-
oncile the two statements?”
“ O, that’s all right. The uncle he re-
ferred to is merely a trade relation.”—

A BRIDGEPORT GREEK FAILS
TO COMMIT MURDER,
But Succeeded in Ending His Own
Life.
BRIDGEPORT, Ct., March 3.——Yesterday
afternoon Alexander P. Hetherington, a
Greek, aged 28 years, fired two bullets at
Emma Klaus, a. pretty young woman of
this city, employed in the Arcade on
Main street. He then placed the revolver
at his own breast and fired one shot. It
was fatal, and he died almost instantly.
One of the bullets fired at the young
woman entered her hand, and the other
her breast. Though suffering from shock
and still unconscious, the physicians say
that she will recover. She is at the home
of her mother on Franklin street,this city.
The tragedy grew out of an infatuation
for Miss Klaus on the part of Hetheringl
ton. About two years ago he met Miss
Klaus and they became friends. Months
ago the friendship of the man grew to
love, and he asked Miss Klaus to marry
him. The proposal was refused, but that
seemed to increase the devotion of Heth-
erington. Wednesday Hetherington called
upon Miss Klaus and again pressed his
suit. It was refused as before, and he was
told that the friendship must also cease.
Wednesday night Hetherington regis-
tered at. the Wilson House, in this city.
He did not retire until late, and did not
leave his room until a few minutes before
the tragedy occurred. When he left the
hotel he went directly to the hair-dress-
ing establishment of B. Olsner, in the
Arcade,‘.where Miss Klaus was employed.
She was alone at the time sitting near a
window, reading. What the conversa-
tion was there is not known.
Three pistol shots fired in rapid suc-
cession attracted the attention of passers
by, and the next moment Miss Klaus
dashed into the office of Broker Cham-
berlain crying. “A man just shot me.
He is in there,” pointing to Olsner’s es-
tablishment next door. Policeman Fisher
entered the place and found Hethering-
ton lying on the floor. In less than a
minute he died. By his side was a small
knife. From a wound on the throat it is
thought that after Hetherington fired the
bullet into his own body he attempted to
finish the job by using the knife.
Hetherington was well known in this
city. He was handsome. About eight
years ago he first came to this city. He
told a story of wealthy family connec-
tions, and several wealthy women became
interested in him. Among them was Mrs:
John D. Candee, who took an interest in
the young man and educated him. Heth-
erington became infatuated witn Miss
Hattie Candee, a daughter of his bene-
factress, and wanted to marry her. When
Miss Candee was married to a wealthy
Chicago man, he threatened to shoot her
at the altar. On the night of the wed-
ding detectives watched Hetherington
- and police surrounded the church. Since
that time Hetherington has led a strange
life. He has passed his time in this city,
and given out that he expected to receive
a fortune from Greece. He always dressed
well, but when the authorities took
charge of the body no money was found.
His watch was missing, but a pawn
ticket wasfound. It is thought that he
pawned the watch to secure money to
buy the revolver he used. The bullet that
entered Miss Klaus’s breast struck the
book she had been reading first. If she
lives, her escape Will be due to this Inci-
dent.
RESCUED BY WOMEN.
Prof. “'right Need Not Settle a Breach of
Promise Judgment.
MAv’s LANDING, N. J ., March 3.-—Prof.
J. Clegg Wright, :1 spiritualistic lecturer,
who was locked up last Thursday charged
with trying to evade a Chicago judgment
for $8,000 for breach of promise obtained
by Rhoda Pyatt, a typewriter, is again at
liberty.
Both the Professor and Miss Pyatt have
married since the alleged breach of
promise occurred, and the Professor’s
wife could not see why he should pay
$8,000 to a Western typewriter who had
so .easily secured a husband. So she re-
tained Mrs. Carrie B. Kilgore, a lawyer,
and the latter pleaded successfully to
Judge Garretson for a discharge.
Armed with this Mrs. Kilgore and Mrs.
Wright went to the Woodbury jail, and
after getting the Sheriff out of bed pro-
cured thc release of the Professor.

The Others “111 Send Ships to the Be-
view in New York Harbor.
WASHINGTON, March 3.—All of the
powers invited to send warships to take
part in the naval review in New. York
Harbor have now been heard from.
Austria, Turkey and Greece are obliged
to decline the invitation to participate,
the reason given in each case being that
no vessels are available. Germany and
Russia, the other two dilatory powers,
' accept.
Germany will send two armored cruis-
ers, the Kaiserin Augusta and the Seead-
ler. Russia will send a large fleet and
will Probably have the largest representas
tion of any nation in the ceremonies.
The Russian fleet will include the first-
. class armored cruisers Dimitri do Skol
and General Admiral and the corvette
Rynda, with Vice- Admiral Koznakaff
commanding. Two or three other vessels
will leave Cronstadt when the ice yields.
They will probably be the battle-ship
Emperor Nicholas and the armored cruis—
ers Nachimoff and Pamiate Azowa.
Great Britain has accepted the invita-
tion, but the fleet has not been definite-
ly selected. The flagship Blake and sev-
eral vessels of the North Atlantic Squad-
ron will be present, and it is probable
that one or two belted cruisers will also
be sent over.
Italy will send the cruisers Etna, Bau-
san and Dogali, and perhaps the trans-
port Eridano, under Rear-Admiral Mag-
naghi.
Spain will be represented by the
cruisers Reina Regente and Infants Isa-
bel, and the gunboat Espana. The Duke
of Veragua and his suite will sail for
America on the American line steamer
New York on April 8.
France has virtually accepted the invi-
tation to participate, but no vessels have
yet been designated».
Brazil will send the iron-clad Aquida-
ban and the cruisers Republican and Ti-
radentes.
From the Netherlands will come one
frigate of the first class, the Van Speyk.
Hayti has not returned a definite an-
swer to the invitation because of the ab-
sence of the President and Cabinet, but
it has no vessels to send, while Uruguay
has declined on the ground that no ves-
sels are available.

Mr. Cleveland and His Party
Arrive in Washington.
THE CITY 11111011ch WITH
SlGHT-SEERS.
President and President-Elect Ex-
change Calls.
WASHINGTON, March 3.—It w... just 15.30
o’clock last night when the special
train bearing President -elect Cleveland,
his family and the invited friends of his
party rolled into the railway station at
Washington. The train had made the
139 miles of its run from Lakewood in 140
minutes, not including stops. The party
had eaten luncheon north of Philadel-
phia, and were not at all wearied by their
journey.
The railroad station was surrounded
by a throng of several thousand people,
who packed the adjacent streets from
curb to curb. The entrances to the sta-
tion itself were guarded by at least 100
policemen, while scores of detectives from
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Chicago were on the outlook for mischiev-
ous cranks.
Mr. Cleveland was received upon the
platform by Col. Berrett and Mr. Norris
of the local Committee of Arrangements.
These gentlemen were taken within the
car and presented to Mrs. Cleveland. In
the mean time the policemen had cleared
anarrow lane through the crowd from
the exit of the station to the curb, where
half a dozen carriages were waiting. In
walking to the carriages Mr. Cleveland
came first, arm in arm with Col. Barrett,
and Mrs. Cleveland followed, escorted by
Mr. Norris. Immediately behind Mrs.
Cleveland came a white capped maid,
bearing in her arms baby Ruth.
Mr. Cleveland’s appearance, as he
emerged from the station, was greeted
with a tremendous cheer, which was re-
posted for Mrs. Cleveland and redoubled
for the maid and baby. Mr. Cleveland
Icknowledged this welcome by lifting his
Iilk hat and bowing. Mrs. Cleveland
Imiled and the baby looked bewildered.
The party lost no time in hurrying to
their carriages, passing between the di~
vided sea of curious onlookers,
Mr. C‘eveland looked remarkably well.
His step was elastic and his hearing
seemed buoyant. Mr. and Mrs. Cleve-
land and their official escort entered the
first carriage, while Baby Ruth and her
maid and Dr. and Mrs. Bryant filled the
s. .wd. The other carriages were occu-
pied by Mr. and Mrs. Don M. Dickinéon,
Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Lamont, Mr. and
Mrs. E. C. Benedict and family, Mr. and
Mrs. Richard Watson Gilder and the
etenographer, Mr. O’Brien.
The carriages drove from the station to '
the Arlington Hotel by a circuitous route
in order to avoid the crowds on Pennsyl-
vania avenue. At the ladies’ entrance to
the Arlington the canopy over the side-
walk was hemmed on both sides by per—
haps 1,000 people, who had been patient-
ly standing there for an hour, and who
were only kept back from the entrance
by two platoons of policemen. Mr.
Roselle, the proprietor of the hotel, hast-
ened to the curb just as Mr. Cleveland’s
carriage drove up, and assisted the Presi-
dent-elect and his wife to alight. Within
the hotel the ladies’ reception room was
thronged with guests, who, however,
made no demonstration, but maintained
a respectful silence as Mr. and Mrs.
Cleveland passed across the room to the
elevator, which carried them to the
second floor, where are the several suites
reserved for the party.
As soon as Mr. Cleveland entered the
upper corridor he was greeted by the
lovely children of Don M. Dickinson,
each of whom claimed and receiveda kiss.
Mrs..Clevela'nd.went at once to her room,
where she reposed for a half hour before
dinher was served. Mr. Cleveland .re-
eeived no callers, although hundreds of
cards were left for him at the desk of the
hotel. The dinner party consisted mere-
ly of those who had come over on the
train.
Mr. Cleveland’s new private secretary,
Mr. Thurber, also declined to receive
callers, with the single exception of Rus-
sell Harrison, who has known him for
mfiny years.
Anprmy of 200,000 of the great Ameri-
can public now hold possession of their
OWn national capital. If the statements
of railroad officials are to be believed
there is now moving upon Washington a
reserve army of at least equal numbers.
The presence of this conquering host is
éverywhere visible. The streets are so
owded already that passage along the
bond sidewalks rs difficult, and pedes-
trféns have already utilized the asphalted
streets. The hotel corridors are jammed.
The eight special trains, bearing more
than 3, 000 Tammany braves, reached
Washington last evening. Their paslén.
gers were well} dressed and made ad
impressive appearance as they marched
to their various headquarters.
Mr. Cleveland called on President Hats,
rison ab nt 10. 30othls morning and within
the hour 1‘. Harrison, accompanied by
Private secretary Halford, formally ro-
turned the call.

WASHINGTON, March 3. — Henry T.
Thurber, the new private'secretary to Mr.
Cleveland, was at the White House for
the first tome yesterday. Major Halford
had telegraphed him to come on and learn
the ropes. The Major called on Mr.
Thurber soon after his- arrival and escort-
ed him to the White House, where the
new official was introduced ‘to President
Harrison and was given a two hours’
drill in the official routine.
