The Parents on Both Sides Say there was No Occasion for It. The elopement of young Matt Anbery, of Chicago, and Miss Pauline Fuller, a daughter of the Chief Justice, caused amazement in the familics of both of the young people, as it was not thought their course was at all necessary. While the parents on both sides seem to have been inclined to discourage the young people because of their youth, there never appears to have been a great deal of feeling aroused on the subject. The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Trifunereports Mrs. Fuller as saying yesterday, when asked if there had been any op- position, “None, because the Chief Justice and myself knew nothing of the affair. I have seen the young man two or three times. He called with other young people at my house in Chicago, but I never knew that Pauline con- sidered him more than an acquaintance, There is where neither my busband nor myself can understand the case. There was no opposition. Pauline had nothing to fear in the way of re- straint, and there was no need of an elopement. She was known among all her father’s friends as her father’s favorite child. Middle-aged people liked her for that reason, and looked upou her as nothing but a child, and she was the pet with all our Chicago friends. Her father’s love to her was due to her delicate health. Very ill twice with typhoid fever, she was near to our hearts, owmg to this delicate constitution. I think Pauline did not knowa day before that she would take the step. I think it wasjust the frenzy of the moment. It Was not premeditated. She had no such thought when she went to Chicago. She is as innocent 4s achild and could not determine to deceive.” Mrs. Fuller also said that Pauline was still her daughter and was as welcome to her home as ® Mr. J. M. Aubery, sr., father of the groom, when seen in Chicago yesterday afternoon, said the news of the clopement rather took his breath away. He received a telegram from his son announcing the marriaze before he was out of bed yesterday morning.

He said he was glad they had done it; that Mrs. Fuller was the only one who opposed the match. He and his wife—‘Miss Fuller” he continued fergetfully to call her—would stay in Milwaukee a few day: THE CHIEF JUSTICE HAS NOTHING To SAY. The colored man who opened the door of Chief Justice Fuller's residence this morning in response to the ring of a Srar reporter stated that the Chief Justice was very much ngaged. He. however, took the card, and ently another colored man came down informed the reporter that the Chief tice wished to b 3, as he was very y. He, however, ac t the Chief Jus- said he knew ne gin regard to the elopement of bis daughter in addition to what been printed in the newspapers. He had received no news and had taken no action, and therefore he had nothing to say. The colored man very politely stated that the Chief Justice appreciated the object of the call. - — THE FUTU RE OF RUSSIA. The European Power With the Greatest Expansive Force.

John Chalfant New, of Indiana, who has been appointed consal-general at London, was born at Vernon, Ind., in July, 1831, and was educated at Bethany college, in Virginia. He began the study of law in Indianapolis, but was diverted from that pursuit by recefving an appointment as deputy clerk of Marion county. He became clerk in four years and held that position for five years, when Gov. Morton appointed him adjutant-generai of Indiana. His next public Position was a seat in the state senate. Mean- while he inherited some money, and joined Wm. H. English, the democratic candidate for Vice-President in 1980, establishing the First National bank of Indianapolis, of which he was for many years cashier. In March, 1875, on the resgination of Gen. F, E. Spinner, Mr. New was appointed Treasurer of the United States, a position which he held until June, 1876. In May, 1880, he purchased the Indianapolis Jour- nal, and the same year he became chairman of the republican state committee, and figured at the Chicago convention as «a champion | of Grant and the third term, — the fact that the Indiana delegation stood 28 to 2against Grant. In February, 1382, he was appointed assistant secretary of the Treasury by President Arthur. He resigned in January, 1884, and since then has devoted his attention chiefly to the management of his newspaper. In October, 1881, he was elected president of the American Finance compan: New York, but the duties of that position did not require his removal from hemes ro Mr. New has represented Indiana on the re- ublican national committee since the presi- ential campaign of 1380.

Colonel Frederick Dent Grant, who has been nominated United States minister to Austria- Hungary, is the oldest child of General U. 8. Grant and was born in St.Louis, He is thirty-nine years of age. He accompanied his father dur- ing the war and was in five battles before he was thirteen years old. He received acommon school education, and soon after reaching the prescribed age of sixteen received an appoint- ment as cadet in the West Point military academy. Graduating with high honors he was appointed second lieutenan: of the Fourth United States cavalry on June 12, 1871. With this command he spent two years on outpost duty and took part in combats with the Indians in the far west. He was afterwards promoted to the rank of first lieutenant, and on March 17, 1873, was made aide-de-camp, with the rank of | Heutenant-colonel, on the staff of Lieutenant- General Philip H. Sheridan, who had the active command, under the President, es comm r-in-chief of the armies of the States. Colonel Grantsoon after his res- ‘ion married the daughter of H. H. Honore, nicago millionaire. With their two children they reside in New York city with the widow of Grant, in the house 3 east 66th street, in which the general was living when he was at- ‘d by his fatal illness. During his father’s prolonged struggle with the malady which tinally took his lite, Col.

Grant was neither an active nor a special artner in the firm of Grant & Ward, of which us brother, U.S. Grant, jr., was the innocent and suffering head, and had no connection with | the firm, He, however, lost considerable money through his confidence in the firm, Gov. Hill nominated Col. Grant in May, 1887, for quarantine commissioner in place of Boss Platt, but the New York senate refused to con- firm,’ through Pilatt's influence at Aibany. Again in January, 1888, Gov. Hill offered to nominate Col. Grant for this place, but Grant declined. In September, 1887, Colonel Grant was no! nated by the New York republidan state con tion at Saratoga for secretary of state, and was defeated in the ensuing election by Cook, dem- ocrat, by 16,980 plurality. His salary at Vienna, where he will succeed General A. R. Lawton, of Georgia, will be £12,000. Colonel Grant is of commanding taller and more portly than his father, and, while dignified in his deportment, is a genial member of several political and social clubs. see A FORMER OIL KING. The Death ot His Wife Recalls the Wonderful Story of James S. McCray. resence, Franklin, Pa., Correspondence New York Sun. The death in this city of Mra. James S. Me- Cray recalls a remarkable incident. Franklin is the county seat of Venango county, through which flows Oil creek, along whose banks rolled the great oil excitement. James 8. McCray was a Venango county farmer, whose farm of 150 acres was on top of a hill near Petroleum Center. He had been a woodchopper and mill hand, and after a time bought a team of horses. With his team he made some money hauling in lumber from the woods, and then bought the farm referred to. He was to pay $2,000 for it, and it was several years before he had it free of encumbrances. Daring the first oil excitement on the creek no one thought of going on the hills to find oil, and the McCray farm was passed by unnoticed. In 1870 the seekers after oil began to double on their track, and Keefer and Watson struck a well on the Dalzell lands, adjoining McCray’s, that flowed 400 barrels a day. Oil was worth nearly 23 a barrel. Big wells were soon opened up on the McCray farm, and for the acreage it proved to be the most prolific oil farm ever de- veloped. For the privilege of drilling on his farm McCray received $1,000 an acre bonus and half the oil.” Wells were put down in rapid sue- cession until the output of the farm was 2.700 barrels a day. Oil was then 25 a barrel, and as half the production of the farm belonged to McCray, it made his income nearly $5 a minute, night and d: For the farm for which he paid 32,000 he received an offer of $500,000, but would not take it, crators and sightseers flocked to the farm by hundreds, and McCray’s children, with a keen commercial instinct, set up an apple stand on the road leading up the hillside to turn an honest penny with fruit gathered from the orchard. At the time of this wonderful development McCray’s hilltop farm yielded the largest revenue ever received by a'single firm from the production of petroleum. From a humble farmer McCray became one of the bo- nanza kings of the oil region. He did not sell his oil ax fast as produced, but erected immense iron tanks in which to hold it for a still higher price. He built and filled tanks until he had 150,000 barrels stored. For this oil he had an offer of $500,000 cash, but would not accept it. He was holding it, he said, for $5 a barrel. There came a [s nic in the market and oil dropped to $3 a barrel, then to $2. His tanks got to leaking and a large amount of the oil ran into the creek. Lightning struck some of the tanks and they burned, with their contents. He held what was left of his oil for years, and finally closed out the mere remnant of his rich holdings for $1 a barrel, realizing a few thou- sand dollars instead of £500,000. McCray was the victim of many sharpers. He was taken to New York one time in a gorgeous car as a guest of the late Jim Fisk, of the Erie road, and is reputed to have dropped a big roll before he got home. In one way and another his bonanza fortune was reduced to only a com- ratively moderate amount. While ‘he still had py he bought a fine house in Franklin, in which he has lived for several years, aban. doning the old farm on the creek.

Plots and Even Entire Stories Written as They Were Dreamed. The Duchess, in Savannah News, So many works are written on so many sub- jects that the world should well stand still to wonder at them; but of all subjects, is there one so remarkable as that of dreams?

Each | feeling. passion, thought, betrays itself, How genuine are the sorrows, how thorough the langhter! How fraught with acute misery the fear, the horror, the despair!

Not that these sudden changes work us any yery material harm. Madness bas often followed on far lighter shocks, but to arise from the most bliss- ful dream to find it all so much moonshine has never yet, so far as I have heard, done harm to anybody. “marble hall” It is out of these interludes that now and then the best stories have been evolved.

So vivid seemed the | reading part that when I woke in the morning I could hardly convince myself that I had not read it, and only an examination of the paper that had figured in my dream, and was then | lying in my study, convinced me that the whole thing was in reality a mere fiction of the sleep- ing hours, wrote those two stories almost word for word as they appeared to me, and when printed they seemed to read to me reasonably well.

VERY ANCIENT AMERICA. Our History Said to Date Back Eleven Thousand Years. DR. LE PLONGEON’S DISCOVERIES—THE CENTER OF THIS CONTINENT ALLEGED TO BE THE SITE OF THE EARLIEST CIVILIZATION—THE EXTRAORDI- NARY RELICS OF THE YUCATANS, From the Philadelphia Times. “Americans take no interest in American his- tory”—so say some of our leading publishers. If there be any truth in the assertion, and com- | ing from so good an authority there must be | | some, its amount depends, perhaps, on what is meant by “American histor; Some would have it begin with the Declaration of Indepen- dence, others would carry it back to the Roman conquest of Britain, others again would date it from the days of Columbus, or to the Aztecs, or the Toltecs, but Dr. Le Plongeon, of Brook- lyn, would begin it 10,000 or 11,000 years ago, and he has accumulated a vast mass of evidence in proof of his assertion that the history of our country began 110 centuries ago. The doctor and his wife have spent many years and much money in a careful investiga- tion of the evidences of a high and ancient civilization in Yucatan, relates the New York Commercial Advertiser, and the light they have thrown upon some gqiestions shows testimony that is certainly startling to the merely super- ficial student of the history of this continent. All the world has long recognized the fact that a state of high civilization existed here before the inroads of the Spaniards, The Aztec domi- nation in Mexico is dated back to the twelfth or thirteenth century, and that of the Toltecs to about the period of the Christian era, both races having migrated, it is supposed, from the north. Before that all is doubtful. Mon- golian traces have been detected in the people and indications of Egyptian resemblance have been noticed, but no definite ideas on the sub- ject further than those that have been formu- ted until now. THE OLDEST LIVING LANGUAGE. In the Mayas of Yucatan, Dr. Le Plongeon finds all that remains of the early inhabitants of the continent, and the evidence through traditions, history and langnage that Central America was in truth the “Land of the West,” where the ancient Egyptians believed that the souls of good men were transported to dwell and rule among the blessed. According to this the Maya language is the oldest living language in the world, and the one to which must be traced many forms that hitherto lost themselves in Asi When the Spaniards invaded the con- tinent they studiously destroyed as far as they could all vestiges of native literature, but some Maya manuscripts escaped their notice and from these important historic data have been obtained, The history of the creation, the allegory of the tree of knowledge, the account of the deluge and t before us ina that of the Bible. The writing, mene, mene tekel upharsin, is explained in the Maya tongue ex- actly according to the interpretation of the prophet. The rootsof local names in India are | found in the same language and in the names of the Greek alphabet. Dr. Le Plongeon finds a psalm in Maya which equals anything that has come to us from the Sanscrit or Hindo- stunee. Here, too, we find the original deseripti given by Plato as a tradition among the priests of Egypt. Greek recorded as the period during which, in consequence of great cataclysms, there had been an interruption between Egypt and the “lands of the west.” THE BIRTHPLACE OF CIVILIZATION. Dr. Le Plongeon’s position is this: That in Central America we have the site of the ear- liest historic civilization, and that to the land of the Mayas must be traced back the civiliza- tion, legends, tradition, and, to a great extent, | the languages of India, of the Chaldeans, the Egyptians and others. He regards this asa fact, not as a theory; a fact proved by abund- ant evidence which he has in his possession and which he declares to be irrefragable. Much of the evidence was extremely valuable, and all of it is full of interest—so full that the wonder is that ithas not long ago been gath- ered into one of the great museums, and put before the world as discoveries in the line of true American history. It comprises seventy- seven stereoscopic plates from Chichen-Itza, ninety-five from Uxinal, seven from Ake, sixty from Yucatan and twenty plates of terra cutta work. These photographs illustrate houses, ruins, royal residences, tennis courts, funeral chambers, astronomical observatories and other buildings of the far-distant period mentioned. The archeologist will note many points of interest in them all. The ornamentation is suggestive of the Greek as well as the Indian, and the general style of architecture points to the type from which the Egyptians derived their characteristic features, except perhaps the outside walls, which appear to have been always perpendicular, It would seem that al- though the keystone arch was unknown, the principle of the dome was understood. In where the arch was needed the walls ten feet again from the top of that to the apex. In some instances the walls met; in others there was a short space, covered by a flat stone. The material was the fine lime stone in which Yuca- tan abounds. The carvings are fine and some- times very beautiful, and they were in all in- stances covered with an extremely thin coating of fine cement, supposed to consist of lime and the juice of some plant. It was not glaze, al- though it would appear that glass was not un- known, asmall but interesting specimen of a blue glass tube having been found in one place among the debris. Many frescoes were discovered, and Mrs. Le Plongeon has a number of valuable outlines from them which show a much higher artistic excellence than anything of the kind that has come to us from ancient Egypt. From there it isevident that human bodies were cremated and faneral urns, with portions of the body partially cremated or embalmed, have been found, Axes similar to those now used in the Pacific islands and a sort of javelin and shield | appear to have been the chief weapons of war. Arrow heads are found, but no evidence of the bow, and it seems likely that the heads were intended for the javelin or short spear, which can not have been more than four feet in Sculptured figures are sometimes tinted, but the colors, although tinted when first exhumed, faded when subjected to the rongh treatment of the Mexican authorities. In this collection there are nearly 300 molds and casts of inscrip- tions and ornamental carvings taken by a pro- cess which insures durability as well as a€en- racy, and Dr. Le Plongeon has besides care- fully prepared ae of the most important ing the observatory, castle, mausoleum, and palace at Chichen-Itza, the palace, governor's home, and sanctuary or Ma- sonic temple at Uxmal, some buildings at Ake, und mounds and ancient gnomons at Mayapan, One of the royal residences contained no less n 120 rooms. By means of these plans, aided photographs and the numerous castings. it would not be difiicult to reproduc? any of the principal structures, which thus would illustrate the earlier era of American history and the place whi tinent once held in the race of eivili reproduction of an ancie royal residence at Paris in connection with the exposition would be of almost unique interest to archeologists and others in might possibly prove a stronger a many than anything else we could offer.
