A Gay Scene at the Washington Park— a Tall Fruit Column and a Wonderful mul. A symmetrical column 30 feet high stood near the entrance of Washington Park, East Washing- ton, last evening. This column was made of fruits of the earth, the humbie beet and onion, luscious oranges, golden squashes, apples of varied hues, ears of corn, and other fruits and vegetables being used effectively in constructing the tall shaft, The top was crowned with a Ger- man and an American flag, and at its base was a neatly decorated platform, with figures of youths bearing upon their heads trays filled with fruits, ‘The occaston was the opening ofsthe fourth annual Cannstatter Volkstest. This annual festival corresponds with an English Har- vest Home, a sort of thanksgiving festival in which the gratitude of the people for the bounties of earth 18 expressed in merrymaking. The park presented a very attractive and picturesque ap. pearance. Long lines of flags and streamers were stretched from Cree to tree, and at night tue whole was Illuminated with a myriad of Chinese lanterns and gaslights with colored globes, Amoug the hundreds of people who thronged the par) maidens attired in German peasant costume an musicians in grotesque array fitted about and helped to give a rural effect to the scene. ‘The tall frult column was the work of the president of the verein, Mr. C, M. Schickler, who received many compliments for his taste and ingenuity. In the afternoon the festival, which 1s to continue three | days, was formally opéned with addresses by Rev. W. L. Elterich and Mr. Schickler. Then the fes- Uvities began, ‘The viliage band furnished music for the dances. ‘The young people took part in games, and ail the park rang with music, song, and laughter. In the evening the dancing avilion Was filled. The members of the Germania Maennerchor were present and sang several times during the evening. ‘There were Inany visitors, a large proportion belng Ameri cans Many German familites atvended ih a body, from the grandfather and grandmother down to the tnfant in arms, and all Seemed to enter with zest into the pleasures of the hour. Small boys carrying trays were kept very busy. The trays were not filled with fruit like those supported on the heads of tue mythological sat the base or the fruit column, but were laden with foaming glasses of beer. Ab attraction announced for the ¢vening was “The Old Women’s Mili,” an institu. on which it was said would reverse the fate of “She” and make old women young again. Many persons Waited with eager interest until 9 o'clock, the hourannounced for this pertormance,to witness the process of rejuvenation, but_ were doomed to disappotntment, When a Star reporter inquired among committeemen for the mill, the reply usually made was a knowing smile. One of the committee, however, informed a Stan reporter that theré bad not’ been time yesterday to haul the mill to the park and set it up. It would, how- ever, he said, be set up to-day. ‘The mill 1s & large covered frame. The old women pass into a hopper ‘on one side. ‘The mill 1s turned; then old clothes, walking sticks, crutches, and other appurtenances of old age fly out in one direction, and in another the old women emerge, rosy and dimpled damsels, with laugning faces ‘ahd bright eyes. It 18 sus eeted tat te young women are Arst put through mill by acostumer, which makes them old for the occasion. ——-__. Suicide of a Minister. HE HAD PREACHED THE DOCTHINE OF PERFECTION AND THOUGHT HE WAS SINLESS. ‘The Rev. Henry Clemmens, a Free Will Methodist preacher in Holmes County, Ohio, committed sul- cide last Friday night under very peculiar circum- stances. He for a long time preacited theldoctrine of perfection, and asserted that he was sanctified, and therefore sinless in the sight of God. Among his converts was Miss Kate Unl, who not long ago became his wife, and labored’ with him io his evangelical work: |A few days ago it was noticed Uhat his mind was becoming unsettled, and a phy- siclan was called in. To the doctor Clemmens as- serted that in his last sermon he had placed the standard of religion too high for the people, that they could never attain {t, and that consequently he had Hed to them and had displeased ‘The Physician prescribed perfect quiet and rest, and gave the clergyman some nervines, Friday fight e arose from hig bed, took a loaded shotgun that room, placed the muzzle of the gun in his mouth, anddischarged the weapon.

A telegram from Greenwood, Miss. October 1, says: The jury of inquest "in the case of Harry Taylor, after taking testimony, find as their ver- dict that Taylor was murdered by members of the Dry Bayou and Shell Mound Masons, naming fif- teen members of those organizations. Warrants have been issued for the persons accused, one of whom has already been Jailed. The testimony given at the inquest shows that the societies men- Uoned are bound by oath to avenge the death of abrothermember. A negro from Vicksburg named Doc. Stringer organized these two lodges, getting ‘about $180 from them on a promise to send them arters, Which they have never received. A sub- na duces tecum Was issued for the books of these lodges, but none could be found. There 1s no doubt but that there existed a secret organization among the mn tm thls county, boulud by the most diaboltcal oath, to do certain inurderous acts. Officers of the 1aw are on the track of those impli- cated, and the members of this secret and mur- derous order will be brought to justice, and the seed sown by Doc, String r rooted up, ‘Tommy ate the Money.

During that time there was a steady stream of people passing, and when the latter hour arrived there appeared to be as many more wailing to pay their respects. Wasuington avenue was lit ly packed for blocks during the reception hours, and at its close there was no perceptible change in the crowd: The President and Sirs, Cleveland recelved in the mid- die or a large parlor adjoin! e dining-room hallway, standing during the taree hours beneath richly decorated chandelier.
