From the Nevads Mail, Great exciten:cnt was occasioned in the east part of the city about 9:30 o'clock last night, by the dis- covery of a well laid plan to blow up the Mitchell-Ingells building. The discovery wus made by Wiley Ranolph, who clerks for P. T. Abell just across the street. He had just locked his doors for the night, and waiking across the street discovered a blaze in the rear of T. C Gentry’s hardware store, which occupies the west half of the building mentioned. He called to W. C. Ballah, who was just closing Dr. Blue's drug store, that Gentry’s store was on fire and asked him to bring a bucket of water and took it across the street. By this time Hank Baumister had come up. Finding that they could not get in, the young men gave the a- larm, and Frank Geutry, who clerks for his brother, came down from the bakery—a half block west—opened the front door and they went in and soon extinguished the flames. Mr. Ballah, who was one of the first to enter room informed a Main representative that the fire was in the south-east corner of the build- ing, between the safe and the wall A box of envelopes and the day-book used in the store were on fire. A powder can—two-thirds full—was about three feet from the safe, and in front of it. Near by were fiifteen sticks of dynamite. They had been laid upon the platform of a cook-stove. From the powder a fuse led to the front of the house, and another went around the safe. It was burning freely and in five minutes more dn explosion would have occured which would have torn the building to atoms. The rear door was standing partially open. Had the explosion occured, eight or ten people living over the stores would have certainly been killed.

Congressman Randall has been confined tohis room most of the time for several weeks by an attack of rheumatic gout in the left arm and shoulder, but his general health has steadily improved. He is now able to be up and about his house, and as he can rest quietly at his country home until well on into November, because of the decision against a called meeting of congress in Octo- ber, he gives every promise of re turning to Washington for the reg- ular session so much improved in health and vigor as to enable him to attend to his public duties without discomfort or peril. “The dishonorable discharge of a soldier from the services of th United States is no bar to pen- sions.” This is the decision reach- ed by Assistant Secretary Bussy, the legal adviser of the Department of the Interior. It means that the name of a traitor who has disgraced the military services of his country may be borne on its pension rolls side by side and on an equality with the names of the brave, devoted and patriotic men. No wonder that such a decision has aroused the indigna- tion of every honorable soldier. No wonder that a feeling of angry as- tonishment has been awakened throughout the United Statesamong all people at the refusal of the Grand Army Encampment to adopt Gen. Martin T. McMahon's resolu- tion condemning such an abomina ble decision.—Sedalia Bazoo.

Meridian, Miss., Sept. 13.—A spe- cil says: The white people of New ton county, especially in the vicinity of Decatur, have been very much disturbed by reports that negroes were arming and organizing, and rumors were put afloat by the ne-| groes themselves that they were going to make serious trouble, and meetings were being held all over the country looking to that end. The result is that the white people | are arming themselves and the mer- chants have been unable to supply | the demand for winchesters, one merchant stating that he could have sold over 100 rifles yesterday if he could have supplied them. The whites declare that they want no trouble but will be prepared for anemergency. The negroes ackuowl edge that they have been organizing politically, but deny that they in- tend any disturbance, and conserva tive citizens generally take this view | of the matter. Cairo, l., Sept. 13.—There are symptoms of a race war in Missouri at Dexter,forty-two miles from here The people in that section have for years excluded all negroes from | among them. A short time ago a! r {ble man named Williams settled on a farm near there and engaged a num- ber of negroes to work for him. Fifty armed white men waited upon him this week and told him he must getrid of the negroes. He said they might kill him first. The armed men returned to town, where they circulated a paper pledging the signers to stand by the regulators. About 500 men signed the paper. About fifty men sided with Wil liams, among them a hardware mer- | chant who has imported winches- ters and amunition sufficient to arm his side. Further trouble is pected. Mr. E. Slatterly, of Delhi, La. says her son, 14 years of age, had dreadful time with ulcers, sores and blotches which followed chicken pox. After using many remedies without benefit, she gave him Swift’s Specific, which cured him sound and well. We have sold S. S.

Sept. 18. | The appointment of a pension commissioner has not been announc- ed. Itis evident that the choice of | the president now lays between Maj. Merrill of Massachusetts and Judge Rea of Minnesota, with Merrill on the inside track. It is understood | that Tanner has sent out a kind of a general order among his followers | to kick against the appointment of Merrill because of the ghoulish glee he exhibited when Tanner was fired. Tauner, it is said, would be satistied with the appointment of Rea provid ed Bussey is turned out of the In- | terior Department. The republican bosses are urging Tanner to spite Noble and Harrison by showing that {he is not hurt, and the way to do that is to go on the stump in Ohio ;and whoop up the boys for Foraker. There is no doubt but there is a close band of friendship between Foraker and Tanner, but Tanner still hesitates, lest a big republican victory in Ohio might be construed to mean an indorsement of the ad- ministration in turning him out of office. It is probable that if Harri- son presented Tanner for the Re- cordership of deeds for the District | of Columbia that the wounded feel- ings of the Brooklyn blatherskite | would be largely healed and that he would then take the stump in Ohio. But the people of the district are making such a kick against the Cor- poral’s appointment to one of their local offices that the President hesi- tates. Nothing would please the ad- ministration more than the Corporal’s acceptance of the Melbourne consul- ship. This would send him away to |the other part of the world and jhave the effect of shutting his mouth, so far as domestic affairs are concerned, for at least a couple of years. | The same humorists who were | urging the appointment to the pen- sion commissionership of Mrs. Lo- | gan yesterday are trying to boom ex- |Gov. Tom Fletcher of Missouri to ;day. It is not likely, however, that jany Missourian will get the office | now that Warner has declined. Concerning the declination of | Warner there is a story in circulation | here that may be interesting in Mis- ;souri. Itis said the whole power | of the administration will be exert- |ed to electa republican legislature jin Missouri next year by making | combinations with the agricultural | Wheel, Farmers’ Alliance, the Pro- | hibitionists and others. In the event lof the republieans succeeding in | the scheme, Warner unquestionably | be a leading candidate for senator. | If Noble is not transferred to the | supreme bench, he too will have sen- | atorial aspirations. Consequentlv it | is alledged that the wily Noble at- | temped to kill off a dangerous rival | in his own party by having him ap- | pointed Pension Commissioner to | succeed Tanner, knowing that such | would be destructive to his future i ambition. This is the story that is | told by Missourians, and it isthe | friends of Warner who are telling it. The worst crippled veteran who jattended the Grand Army gather- jing at Milwaukee was Benjimen | Fravklin. of Blue Earth, Minn. He jlost both arms and legs, together | With a piece of his nose, from ex- porsue in a blizzard during the year H 1865, when he was stationed on the j frontier. | Mr Blaine’s eldest son is about to | imarry the daughter of a Chicago | millionaire, while his’ daughter is | gong to marry a New York musi- \cian. The Blaine family is bound ito have notes, whether music or Emile Zola has been passing the summer at his country residence near Rouen. It is pleasing to learn President Harrison in the Baltimore parade, played “Dixie” or “My Ma- | ryland.” | Drankenness or the Liquor Habi: Positively Curea by administering | Dr. Haines’ Golden Specific.

He is in the happy position of having committed an offense which as yet has no name, and it is therefore difficult to see how he can be indicted. This individual after a study of mes- merism, mind reading, hypnotism, and similar phenomena for his amusement, being exceedingly hard up, began to utilize them. This was his method: He dropped into a store, bought some petty article, and paid for it with a copper. Then the shopkeeper yielding to an uncontrollable impulse, handed over the change for a five dollar bill. When the day was at an end and he came to count up his cash he dis- covered a shortage that he was unable toexplain. He had no recollection of the mysterious stranger and his deal- ings with him. Thus the hypnotizer went to the box-office of a theater, asked for a twenty-five cent ticket, ‘that he has not been writinga novel.| Capital, = Most of the bands, as they passed | SURPLUS | We. E. handed a scrap torn from a newspaper, and got back in change about twenty dollars. Later in the day there was an uproar in the box-office, and an innocent boy would have become the victim of natural suspicion if the police had not by that time gotten on the trail of the operator. The tradesmen of this particular town, being perplexed by their con- stant shortages, and thinking they must be the victims of adroit till-tap- pers, called in the help of the police. did some watching, and discovered that when this particular young man made a purchase he always got too much change back, and that the man who gave it was oblivious of the fact that he had acted in such an unbusi- nesslike way. So they took in the fel- low, looked up his record, found that he was a hypnotizer, and have him now on their hands meditating what they shall do with him. If the old laws against sorcerers and magicians had not been repealed he could easily be indicted ‘‘for practicing certain dia- bolical and wicked arts whereby the minds of her Majesty’s subjects are distraught and led astray.” But those laws are no more. To try him for get- ting money under false pretenses will hardly do, for there were none. He deceived no one. He just took more change than he should, and if asked for it would doubtless have refund- ed ét. Judging from the small amounts col- lected by this English hypnotizer he is probably a man of limited powers. He could not influence a man to give him more than $20. But supposing the science were so developed that one of its adepts could strike a man for $10,000 or $20,000, what business could be more profitable? Theexpert would go to a bank, hand in a bit of dirty pa- per to the paying teller, and the lat- ter would give him all the cash he had. The man would depart saying nothing. The paying teller, having no recollection at all of the affair, would be in a most unpleasant predic- ament. The bank officers would send for the police, and the teller would be removed to the jail to figure as the principal in a mysterious case of de- falcation or robbery. A still more powerful operator could attack the president of the bank, not with a pis- tol but his cultivated will power, and force him to hand over. every cent in the bank. Then there would be an- other bank president with no charac- ter left. e What shail be done to protect the financial institutions? Shall the teach- ing and learning of hypnotism be for- bidden, or can some way be discovered by which a man can be made hypnot- ism-proof? Can not a person be vac- cinated for it as for small-pox? When that is done no one need be employed as cashier or teller until he has pre- sented his certificates, or proved by examination that he is himself a hyp- notiser of the first class, and can not be thrown into that unconscious state in which he will give more than the proper change. In the meantime the | banks are at the mercy of the profess- | ors of the new art, and it is hard to | see what precautions they can take.— Chicago Tribune, BUTLER ’ Hicks, plaintiff. vs. 3.
