Two Hundred English Soldiers
Land in New. York.
T___
TEEIR MISSION A PEACEFUL ONE.
All of’England’s Famous Regiments Rep-
resented in the Delegation Which Will
Parade at the World’s Columbian Ex-
position. ~
,NEW YORK, April 7.——It is along time
since an English red coat has been seen on
Manhattan Island, but 200British soldiers,
picked from England’s crack regiments,
descended on New Yorkwyesterday. Their.
errand was a'peaceful one, and they were
not molested. Quite a number of people
had assembled at the foot of 'West Twenty-
,tlj'street to witness the landing from
thesteamship Massachusetts.
All of the famous regiments are repre-
sented, and there is half a battery of ar-
tillery. There are. twenty-two big life
guardsmen, twenty-seven members ofthe
royal horse artillery, twenty of the fifth
royal Irish lancers, twenty of Prince
Arthur’s Own hussars, twenty royal High.
landers, the famous Black Watch, twenty
of the Prince Consort’s rifle brigade,
twenty of the Eighty-seventh Royal Irish
fusileers, ten of the mounted infantry and
fifteen royal engineers. There are also
ten men belonging to the medical corps
and seven buglers, trumpeters and drum
mers. -
The men are commanded by Colonel F.
Vlbart. The other officers are Major
Crowdy, Captain E. B. Stafford, Captain
Dawson, Captain ,Croker, Lieutenant F.
Croker and Lieutenant Rawson Turner.
When the Massachusetts left London
she had sixty-seven of the soldiers’ care-
fully trained horses on board. They did
not stand the voyage well, and three of
them died. The;whole outfit left for Chi-’
cage on the Pennsylvania read last eve-
ning. They will give an exhibition of
their skill in Chicago during the World’s
fair. . '
People who have seen the feats these men
perform at Agricultural Hall in London
say that their skill is something wonder-
ful. One of their most difiicult feats is to
cut a sheep in two with a sword while
riding at full gallop. A , Turk’s head and
lemons are also cut in the same way.
Then they have tent pegging with lance
and sword, the famous musical rides, tilt-
ing the ring, the Victoria cross race, jump-
ing over tables, swords and hurdles on
horseback, wrestling on horseback and
any number of other exercises. The con-
test between a mounted swordsman and a
foot soldier armed with a bayonet is said
to be interesting and exciting.

ISMG'S LITERARY OPPORTUNITY.

, May Develop Some Day. -'
“What’s your boy Ike doin daown t’
Boston, J erome?” asked the Hilldale post~i
master one stormy night, while he and
Jerome Sargent waited for the coach to
arrive. Mr. Sargent had returned from a;
visit to Boston the day before, and it was
vaguely reported in the village that ‘ ‘he’d
hadgreat doin’s daown b’low with Ike”. .
“Isaac,” replied Mr. Sargent in atone.
of ill concealed pride, “is right in th"
midst 0’ things, I ken "jest tell ye! M’
wife, she’s allus held te‘it that Isaac had
got t’ be some kind of a lit’rary feller
when he’d got his growth, an I declare
for’t, it does appear ’s' of he was in a
‘pooty fa’r way t’ kerry aout his ma’s
d’sires. He’s jest right in amongst a
mess 0’ th’ lit’rary folks thl’ hull ’durin
time; sees ’em real informal day in an
aout!”
- “Do tell!” gasped the postmaster, with
an expression of the greatest and most
flattering amazement on his sharp fea-
tured countenance. , '
“Yes, sir,” said Mr. Sargent, seeing
that he had made a decided impression
on his listener. “I was raound with
Isaac quite a little spell one mornin, but
lawzee, I couldn’t stand no sech fluster-
in, hurryin times as he hes right along!
’Twould kill me right off, or anyways I
shouldn’t never be fit ”for anythin agin
after a week 0’ sech work! But Isaac
likes it, an seems t’ feel real easy an on-
concerned’baout gettinraound. There’s
one thing his ma an I would like t’ hev
changed though, that’s th’ short rations
9’ time they give him t’ git from one
place t’ another an back agin.”
“Hes t’ hurry, does he?” inquired the
postmaster. '
“He cert’nly does,” replied Mr. Sar-
gent, crossing his hands on his knees and
surveying the effect meditatively as he
talked. “Isaac’s a likely boy at learnin,
an they’d orter give him a. little more of
a chance, seems ’s e .‘”
“Well, naow, what is Ike doin precise-
ly?” inquired the postmaster after a
pause, during which he had waited pa-
tiently for Mr. Sargent to give some
more definite information ;as to his son’s
pursuit, which had always been shroud-'
ed in mystery.
“Why, I ain’t cal’latint’ tell ye jest
th’ name they give t’ a boyin Isaac’s p’si-
tion,” remarked the father prudently.
“It w‘d strike ye kind 0' queer, same as
it did me fust elf, till, Isaac explained
’baout it? I ain’t deemed it hardly wise
t’ tell his ma even jest yet-,.for she's kind
0’ notional, an ’taint a poety name no
two ways ’baout it! But it appears ’t
it’s customary, an don’t mean what ye
might s’pese or anythin-“like it. What
Isaac does is t’ kerry what-he tells me
they call ‘proof’-—;the;literary folks do—
back an forth betwixt ,‘them that writes
an them that prints. Jest think 0’ that!
Right in with ’em all, Isaac is!”
“Do th’ folks that he works for set
much by him?” inquired the postmaster
in a tone of great respect. ,
“Th’ printin folks set a heap by him,”
replied Mr. Sargent. “It’s ‘Isaac’ here
an ‘Isaac’ there all th’ time with them.
Isaac says th’ writin men don't seem t’
take much to him, but I told himthat of
he was a good boy an did his work well
they‘d git so they’d feel real friendly to
him an be glad t’ see him whenever he
come in, same as th’ printin folks are.
An I said t’ him, sort of encouragin, for
I thought he seemed',kind o’ Vdaoubt-
ful, ‘Why, Isaac, what a. good thing it
w’d be for ye of some 0’ them writin’
folks sh’d take a real shine t’ yean have
a little talk with ye naow an agin whilst
they was finishin 'up their writin for ye
t’ take off (for Isaac says they never hev
it done when he gits there hardly).
P’r’aps they might kind 0’ set forth t’iye
haow they write, an so on,’ says 1. Isaac
didn’t seem t’ think ’twas likely, but I
do, an so does his ma!

rising as he heard the sound of the ap-
proaching coach, “hes a. chance like
Isaac’s, ther’s no knowin what may come

Men Who Abuse Privileges.
Chambermaids at swell hotels soon be-
come great students of human nature.
It does not take them long to size up
either the social or financial standing of
the guests. ‘ -
For instance, one showed her acumen
in this direction the other day when I
happened to call her attention to the ar-
ray of six towels on the rack over the
washstand in‘ the bathroom.
“Think that extravagant?” said the
bright young woman. “Well, don’t you
make any mistake!”
“But it most cost the house a lot for
laundry bills,” I ventured.
“Not a bit of it,” she replied vivaci;
ously. “Most of our trade here is first
class. "No one ever uses a lot of towels
unless they are not used to them at
home. Men who .are accustomed to the
luxuries of life do not take advantage of
the supply. It is only the class who usu-
ally wipe their faces on roller towels
' who abuse our generosity.”
And doubtless the girl knew what she
was talking about.-——New York Herald.
An Unsuccessful Persistent Suitor.
One of the most persistent suitors who
ever proposed and was rejected was the
eccentric Cruden, compiler of the con-
cordance to the Bible. Miss Abney, who
had inherited a. large fortune, was the
subject of his attentions. For months
and months he pestered her with calls
and letters. 'When she left home, he
had papers printed, which he distributed
in various places of worship, asking the
congregation to pray for her safe return,
and when she returned home he issued
others‘asking the worshipers to return
thanks. Miss Abney never became Mrs.

A'GONDUCTOR'S STORY
‘ MONEY COULDN’T STOP-THE TRAIN.
BUT IT WAS STOPPED.
There's 3 Grave Somewhere at the Foot of
the king Range of White Capped Moun-
thins Over Which the Trains of the Great
Northern Crawl. ' ’
I never reader hear. of the mountains
thgt I do not recall a story told by a con-
ductor of a. train on the Great Northern
road. We were going So Butte. The
train had just crossed the river at Great
Falls. From that point the road begins
its eastern ascent of the range whose
L tops are whitened with the snow all the
year round. A wide .plain spreads out
between the line of the road: and the
range. As the train was getting “a fresh
. hold on the rails,” as one of the party
expressed it, the conductor 'stood on the
rear platform of the coach and looked
steadfastly at one spot until it was lost.
“Got a claim anywhere around there?”
asked a traveler who had noticed the
conductor’s longing look.
“A kinder of a. claim,” he replied, “but
not the kind you’re thinkin of.”
How he came to tell us makes no dif-
ference now. Here is what he told:
“ ’Bout a year . ago, I think it was, a
young man was put on my train by the
conductor who had brought him to
where I take it. He had been cast. His
folks lived down there, I believe. He
had been west a good many years, was a
cowboy, then a deputy marshal, then a
boss of a ranch and then he got to spec-
ulatin in Anaconda. He had lived the
sort of life Out here that a man was ex-
pected to live in them days. He was a
hard citizen and then a good one. Blest
if I know just where he quit of, but he
did. He finally got to lovin a. girl, and
just when he was havin it the wust Way
she ups" and marries a good for nothin
dude that , came out here and got to
clerk'ln in a raghouse. Then the young
man that I am talkin about he goes east
to wear out his feelin’s, I reckon. And-
he was gone all summer. They said he
was at the seaside. I thought when I
heard that as how he would not last long.
When a man quits this climate to go to
the seaside, there must be something
mighty bad about his use. If a man.
can’t get cured here, helneedn’t go any-
where else. '
“Well, when he was put in my care
there was‘four or five of the boys with
him. They had heard he was comin
back, and they met away down this
side of St. Paul. And they nursed him
all the way and fed him jestas if he had
been a sick girl. He was lookin out of
the Winder of the car all the time, day
and night, but wasn’t sayin nothin.
When We get to Great Falls, he looked
out of the car winder and smiled. It
was the first time that the boys had see
him do that since they met him, and they
thought he was gettin well. He asked
’em to set him up in his berth so he could
see.
“And he looked at the mountain tops
out there covered with the whiteness of
God; and the foot of the mountains that
is washed by the purest water this. side
of the divide. The train was just get-
ting a good bolt on the rails when the
poor fellow sank back, and the next~
thing I see the boys was takin the piller
out from under his head. Then I
knowed it was all over. Then one of the
boys come to me and asked me if I would
take $1,000 to stop the train. I told ’em
I couldn’t do anything of thet sort. They
said money was no object. Then I asked
’em what was up, and one of ’em told
me that he, meanin the dead man, had
made a last request that he be taken
from the train and buried in sight of the
mountain that had the snow on it, the
one that caught his eyes first after we
had come over the river. They said they
had promised him they would. I asked
’em where they would get a box, and
they said a man as good as he was didn’t
need no box; that the angels would take
care of him as soon as he was laid away.
“I asked ’em what they would do if
the train wasn’t stopped. They held a
short parley and said in a most respect-
ful way, which I understood, that they
had to carry out the wishes of the de-
ceased at all hazards; that they could
stop the train if I didn’t. I understood
’em. I pulled the cord and went for'ard,
and while the engineer was mendin the
locomotive, which got out of sorts jest
then, the funeral procession moved out,
and the dead was buried out there in
full sight. It so happened that we got
the locomotive fixed just as the funeral
was over, and we took the pallbearers
into Butte that night. -
“And I never pass that spot that I
don’t look out there where they laid him.
I ain’t never seen any of the pallbearers
since, and I don’t know the name of the
young. man that they buried. Do you
know, gents, that his grave is green all
the year round? I once thought of put:
tin up a gravestone at the head, but,
thinks I, it’s none of my business, and,
besides, the boys said the angels was goin
to to take care of his body, so I thought
I wouldn’t be intrudin on any angel’s
business. It was the only time, though,
that my locomotive ever got anything
the matter with it.”—Chicago Tribune.
Criticism of “Cymbeline.”
At one of the performances of “Cym- _
beline” by Modjeska’s company one of
the audience heard a man behind him.
say to another, “What is this piece and
where did she get it?” “Oh,” answered
his companion, “something she picked
up, I suppose.” All this seems less rep-
rehensible when Dr. Johnson’s criticism
of “Cymbeline” is recalled. To himit
sounded like the creation of a lunatic

How a Fashion Was Started.
During the reign of George III the
Duke of York had a duel with Colonel
Lennox, with the result that the colonel
succeeded in shooting away one of' the
duke’s curls. ' Hence it became the cor,

the temple only. We do \not know
whether this was the origin of the 0619-
brated curl of a deceased prime minib-
téi.—London Tit-Bits.

A Munnnnnn FATHER.
A Son and Three Daughters Convicted
of the Crime.
WAYNESBURG, Pa, April 7.--The Mon
gan murder cases were called in court yes-
terday, and was disposed of in less than
two hours. Thomas Morgan, who shot
his father, was tried first, the jury bring-
ing in a second degree ver lict. The three
sisters, Jennie, Itebecca and Callie, were

manslaughter for the first '_ named and
second degree for the other two. Sentence
Was not passed. .
The father, J ohn Morgan, was a wealthy
widower, 55 years of age. The report that
Morgan contemplated marrying again
aroused the wrath of his children, who
warned him that unless he sent. the woman
away his life should be forfeited. Morgan
took the woman away, returning home
late at night, and was refused admittance
to his home. The next morning he en-
tered the house, and a quarrel ensued.
Thomas, at his sister’s command, fired at
his father. The ball missed the father and
wounded one of the girls. Thomas, fren-
zied with rage, relentlessly pursued the
old gentleman to an abandoned building,
where he murdered him in a most un‘
merciful manner. ' -

HEPABATIIMMANDED.
A United States Consulate Sacked
by a Perivian Mob.
PREMIER GRESHAM ACTS PROMPTLY
'Q‘Iinister Hicks Instructedl'to Ask an'Ex-
pression of Regret for the Inactlon. of
. the Police and Prompt Prosecution of
the Guilty Parties.
WASHINGTON, April 7.—Minister John
Hicks cabled the state department from
Lima, Peru, asfollOWS, under date of April
“At (place emitted) a mob attacked Ma.-
sonic lodge, sacked the building and then
burned the fixtures in the street. Inci-
dentally the United States consulate was
invaded, the furnishings destroyed and
the acting consular agent shot in the met.
The archives were saved intact. A squad
of Peruvian police looked on while the
mob performed their work, without inte‘r-
ference. The mail brings the particulars.”
The particulars in question, which are
left to be supplied by mail, apparently in-
clude the information as to where the out-
rage occurred, which unaccountably is
missing in the telegram. There is but one
consulate in Peru, that at Calloa. In this
position Mr. Aquilla , J. Daughertv, of
Illinois, appointed during Mr. Harrison’s
administration, June 2, 1890, stands on the
record as .consul. There are under him
six consular agencies, the occupants of
which positions are doubtless merchants
of the country, who are paid by fees, and
those fees seem to be very small, inasmuch
as only two make any returns at all tothe
department of fees collected, and these re—
turns are under $25 a year. Probably many
of them are native Peruvians, though the ‘
names of some of them indicate the con-
trary. , .
Whether the outrage complained of
occurred at one of these smaller places or
at Callao no one at the department can
determine from the telegram, but inas-
much as it comes from Lima the impres-
sion prevails that the scene of the outrage
was one of the interior points.
After consultation with President Clever
land, Secretary Gresham sent the follow—
ing telegram to the minister:
“Protest against the failure of the au-
thorities to afford protection to the cone
sulate, andif the facts are well established
ask an expression of regret, prompt prose-
cution of the guilty parties and repara—
tion for injury to American property (it
persons”
It is believed at the department that a
satisfactory explanation of the affair will
shortly be made.
