THE AND THE SHERIFF. The Big Pugilist on His Way to Missis- sippi under Arrest. When John L. Sullivan left the court in New York yesterday, after he had been delivered into the hands of Deputy Sheriff Childs of Mississippi, he @rove to the Vander- bilt, where he had luncheon with the deputy, Detective Sergeant Adams, Jack Bar- nett and Dan Murphy. The champion felt very bine and was inclined to be surly. “What's a feller going to do,” he said, “when he can’t follow his business? Fightin’ is my business, ‘That's how I make a livin’. and I ain't got any other way of doin’ it.” Then he moaned over the loss that the forced journey to Mississippi would entail. The Academy of Music, which had been engaged for the big fellow’s benefit to-morrow night, was to be paid for by a percent- age of the receipts, but about $2,000 worth of tickets had been sold, and this was considered as dead loss. Then the Academy of Music in Brooklyn had been engaged for a like purpose for Saturday night. A deposit had been paid to the manager, and this will be lost unless the date for the show can be set forward, OFF FOR MISSISSIPPI. Deputy Sheriff Childs was anxious to get back home as soon as possible, and as nothing could be gained by delay Sullivan agreed to start at once. None of his friends cared to go with him, except Muldoon, Murphy and Bar- nett, al! of whom were compelled to remain in town on business, and so Mr. Clune, the hotel = said he would see the big fellow Sullivan threw afew necessary articles in a small handbag, and at 4:40 o'clock Sullivan, Childs, Adams and Clune left thé hotel in a coach. They left on the 6:30 o'clock train of the Pennsylvania railroad. This will land them in Marion county, Miss., on Monday, but too late fos court proceedings. Sullivan, as well as most of his friends, think the penalty will only be a fine, which. as Mr. Clune is with him, can easily be settled. A CROWD IN PHILADELPHIA. When the train reached Philadelphia, and it was known that Sullivan was on board, a crowd gathered about the car at the station. The big pugilist did not leave the car, but sat by the window in his shirt sleeves. He wore a light flannel shirt with a loose necktie and a pepper and salt vest and trousers. “Why, he seems to be havingit easy enough,” said one person in the crowd that hung about the window gaping at the prize-fighter.. John L. seemed to be utterly indifferent to the gaze of the crowd. After the crowd had been star- ing at him for several minutes he got up and took three cigars from his coat pocket and gave one each to Sheriff Childs and Detective Adams, keeping the thir self. All three lighted their cigars and smoked in silence, Sullivan would not see any newspaper men. He said to a friend that he had conciuded to go to Mississippi and stand trial. He does not think he will be sent to jail, but counts on getting off with aslight fine. He has the free- dom of the car just as any other passenger, and is traveling in his customary luxurious style. There was no noise or demonstration on the rt of the crowd at Broad-street station. Everybody was content at getting a look at the notorious prisoner. The sentiment of the peo- ple with respect to his arrest was divided. A stout man with a red face, cockney accent and 2 big diamond flashing from his shirt boso said: “It was dead wrong to arrest Sullivan. "There was going to be a sparring match in New York to-morrow night and he was to have a gowith a fellow over there. There would have been big money in it. This knocks the bottom out ot it, though.” Another man who took a look at Sullivan turned away with the remark: ‘So they're ts ing him to Mississippi, are they? Weli, I hope he gets about ten years down there. It will do him good and have a wholesome effect on other fighters.” The crowd hung around Sullivan's car until the train pulled out of the station at 9:20, soe Kilrain’s Program. A Norfolk special to the Baltimore Sun says: Jake Kilrain and his wife continue in Hamp- ton, having given up the trip to Cobb’s Island. He will stay at Hampton about a week longer, and one day next week run up to Norfolk, probably on Monday, and visit Virginia Beach. After resting in this part of the country awhile he will return to Baltimore. — see The War in Haytt. The steamer Ozama, which arrived at New York yesterday, brought some important news from Hayti, she having left the port of Gona- ives on July 21. On the Ith Gen.

John Striker, a resident. of Ross township, Ohio, is now in jail in Steubenville charged with cruelty to his children. Striker is eighty- four years of age and is the father of twenty- one children, according to a statement made by him atthe jail. He has been married three times, and his wife and half a dozen small chil- dren at present live in a miserable little hovel, about 12geet square, some 6 or 8 miles from the erty. He stands 6 feet 1 inch in his stockings, and his piercing eyes. long gray hair and fall beard give him a decidedly forbidding appe ance. His terrible cruelty to his childre: claimed, has been known for a couple of i but all who knew him feared to make a direct complaint. Finally a pr Was written to Gov. Richards, the president of the Ohio society for the prevention of cruelty to chil- dren, and action was taken upon the informa- tion thus given. This letter sets forth in detail some of Striker’s more recent acts of barbarity toward his children. In one instance, it is charged, he his two little girls, aged ht and ten years, to atree in the yard, stripped them of their clothing. and with a hickory withe beat them as long as he was able to swing his arm, almost killing them both. On another occa- sion, it is said, he tied one of the girls by the feet, placed her feet astride of a peg in the stable, and then, with the girl hanging head down, beat her until she fainted and was black iu the face. On still another occasion, it is charged. he tied one of his sons up by the neck and left him there until he was almost dead. and the boy is still ina precarious condition from the effects of the punishment. Such acts of cruelty as those narrated have been common at his hands, it is stated, for the most trivial acts of childish disobedience, and his wife has been driven to the verge of insanity by the treatment of her children, Neighbors have Yentured to remonstrate with the old man, but, it is said, he has uniformly threatened the de- struetion of their property by fire in case they made complaint, and they have refrained from taking steps to bring him to jastice, Ives and Stayner Still in Jail. The writs of habeas corpus and certiorari in the Ives and Stayner case were dismissed in supreme court chambers in New York yester- day without ment, and the prisoners were returned to Ludlow-street jail. oo New President of Nicaragua.

Judge Bond of the United States court of the eastern district of Virginia has rendered a de- cision in the habeas corpus proceedings of Marion Mitchell, a barkeeper, of Manchester, GRAND ARMY REUNION. Large Gathering at Mountain Lake Park—Gen. Bussey’s Speech. There was a gathering of Grand Army men at Mountain Lake Park, Md., yesterday. The attendance was very large, there being posts from Cumberland, Keyser, Piedmont, Frost- burg, Lonaconing, Oakland, Terra Alte and various points in West Virginia. Gen. Cyrus Bussey of New York, assistant secretary of the interior, addressed the Grand Army men in the afternoon. The speaker referred to the circumstances which led to the war, and said in those days there were but two classes—patriots and traitors, He said nobody could estimate the suffer- ings and privations endured by the private soldier. Such meetings as these ought tu be held more frequently, and the old soldiers should keep alive that triotism which enabled them to save the Union. He said the soldiers only asked that justice be done to them, and so long as he had power he would give them everything he could while he kept within the statutes, and that he would give them the benefit of every doubt. The speaker said that the assassinations south of Mason and Dixon's line of which we read every day are the dying embers of the rebellion. He devoutly thanked God that he had been placed in a position where he -had the pleasure of reversing some of Grover Cleveland’s rulings. The speech was replete with army reminiscences and war anecdotes, ooo BANK EMPLOYES ARRESTED. Harry Seybold and George Hinnig in Custody—$30,000 Missing. - Harry Seybold, teller in the Bank of Wheel- ing, W. Va., and George Hennig, also an em- ploye in the institution, have been arrested, charged with embezzling the funds of the bank. The parties named were taken into cus- tody very late to-nightjand are now in charge of the sheriff and his deputies. The amount of the shortage is said to be large, reaching at least £30,000 and perhaps exceeding that sum. It is understood the shortage extended over a period of about two years and that a systema- tized method was pursued, the books being falsified so as to conceal the true state of affairs, The discovery of a shortage was made some time ago and the bank officials attempted to unravel the mystery themselves. They ran out two or three clues and then concluded to call in outside aid. This was done and about ten days ago it became settled that at least $30,000 was missing. é Then the question of settling upon tar ect fl parties came up, and this took time, but finally it was decided that Seybold and Hennig were the ones responsible for the crookedness, and last night officers started out to make the arrest. y Hennig was captured without trouble, but it was midnight before Seybold was taken into custody. The latter is the sonof the cashier and comes of a family standing high in social and business circles. “Pm Through Now.” A Deland special! to the Florida Times-Union says that William Gaskins, colored, was hanged there yesterday for the murder of his wife about a year age, He addressed the crowd m the scaffold, and in closing threw up his nds, saying: “I'm through now.” His body en shot through the drop and his neck was, was broken by the fall. He had previously confessed the crime to Father O'Reilly and was repentant. z eae Gace Mr. Cleveland’s Yachting Trip.

Clark, a leading editorial writer for the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, died at his residence in Germantown last night.

An Albany physician declares that Americans suffer more generally from Bright's disease and nervous diseases than any other people, and he says that the reason is that Americ: ‘it down so persistently at their work. He says: “Ameri- cans are the greatest sitters I ever knew. While the Englishmen,Germans and Frenchmen walk and exercise, an American business man will go to his office, take his seat in his chai: and sit there all day without giving any relief to the tension of the muscles of the back. The result is that the muscles surrounding the kidneys become soft and flabby. They lose their vitality. The kidneys themselves soon become weak and debilitated. If Americans would exercise more, if they would staad at their desks rather than sit, we would hear less of Bright's disease. I know of a New York man who had suffered for some years from nervous prostration until it was recommended to him to have a desk at which he could stand to do Within a year he was one of the healthiest men you ever saw. His dyspepsia and kidney trouble had disappeared and he had an appetite like a paver.” : —_ Mrs. Maybrick’s Trial. At the trial of Mrs, Maybrick in Liverpool yesterday on the charge of poisoning her hus- band, the nurse, Alice Yapp, related the Brierly letter incident, and testified to seeing the prisoner pouring medicine from one bottle into another. A former domestic deposed that on one occasion the prisoner finished a Prepara- tion of arrowroot, which she (witness) had be- aun, and thet she (witnees) afterward noticed not been there lark stains on the jug that hai ously. Witness also deposed that Mr. re Maybriek received medicine by post. The cook testified’that the prisoner had directed that the London medicine be poured into the sink, say- ing that Mr. Maybrick would be a corpse if he took another dose. On cross-examination the witnesses gener- ally considered that Mrs. Maybrick did her best for her husband, but that she was set aside by his brothers. Two chemists doing business in the city tes- tified that they had compounded prescriptions for Mrs. Maybrick. The medicines furnished by them contained no arsenic, ei Another Boulangist Manifesto. Gen. Boulanger has issued a manifesto, in which he attributes his defeat in the elections for the councils general on Sunday last. to the ambitions of local candidates. He declares that he is confident of the result of the elec- tions for members of the chamber of deputies, Political circlesin Paris regard the manifesto of Gen. Boulanger as weak and as not likely to improve his position. Git ractas Ohio’s Republican Committee. The Ohio republican state executive commit- tee yesterday appointed sub-committees on finance and speakers and discussed ries to the opening of the campsign. Col. A. L. Conger, chairman, in the course of an in- terview said it was of the greatest importance to the republican in the state and the nation that the state, legi ive, and county tickets in Ohio be elec! this fall, that they may carry forward the good work and government inaugurated by Gov.

He was induced to go to his room and shortly after- wards was sent for Dr. Wolford of 1810 Walnut street, He hurried into the hotel shortly before 5 o'clock and was at once taken to the room of the Pittsburg man. Manager Phillips was found sitting in bed, and conceived gigantic financial schemes. He said that he was going to buy up all the big hotels in the country and form a “hotel trust.” He pro- posed to secure the Girard house at once and — Chief Clerk Carmack in = and said hat he would Kave $500,000 in cash ready at noon to-day.

If the city would sell the square to him Mr. Phillips proposed to ive $100,000 to the poor of the city. While . Wolford made a close examination of Man- ager Phillips he continued to picture other eat plans formaking millions. Dr. Wolford left the hotel about 6 o’clock, and an hour Jater came back with a man who was said to be a trained nurse and who at once went upstairs and took charge of the Pittsburg’s manager. Phillips seemed to be all right mentally when he was at vee age house with his Grae bir weeks ago, but was in very poor healt! The doctors say he has paresis, ———-see THE GERMAN WOMAN. How She Lives from Maid to Wife, with Incidents of Courtship. From the London Globe. The German woman is neither the excellent housewife which she professes to be nor the bluestocking she is often thought. “Gretchen” exists no longer, except on the lids of the boxes of candied fruits, and she is quite a match for Faust when she meets him. In fact, the German girl of to-day, especially in Berlin, is not so much like the Marguerite of Goethe as the Loulou of “Gyp.” It all ople of any pretensions are Frenchy “Ido not think it is an exag- geration,” says the writer, “to say that 95 per cent of the daughters of parents in easy cir- cumstances play the piano and 90 per cent speak French.” As soon as a girl has been confirmed her edu- cation is generally concluded, unless she goes in for special higher branches of study. Her parents begin to think of getting her married, and she goes to her first ball. Courtship, the reliminaries to which generally take place on the floor of the ball room, or, in the winter, to the rhythm of the same waltz time played by the same military band on the ice is inaugu- rated thus: If the young man means business he calls on the young lady’s parents one Sun- day and breaks the ice. He will then be asked to dinner, and a ceremonious exchange of little sentimental presents will take place between the pair, interlerded with sentimental sen- tences—always in French. When an engagement has been definitely an- nounced the young people are allowed quite an English amount of freedom in their intercourse. Indeed,if we may believe the writer, their man. ners and customs are considerably more frankly free than ours in this country, for, she says “they do not scruple to kiss each other in pub. lic as often as they feel inclined, and there is nothing more disagreeable at a soiree than the spectacle of one of these sentimental couples.” Before marriage the German girl is a might, reader of novels, her capacity for sentimental stories being simply inexhaustible. Rarely, however, does marriage in Germany prove the realizction of any of the dreams in which her girlish fancy has taken delight. The German married woman has never occu- ied the same _—- as does the French woman, y reason of the total absence of any senti- ment of chivalry and romance in the treatment of woman by man inGermany.

But how disastrous is that force for the women. Force is more fatal to grace than even to right. What hardr.egs in that dignity!

She never starts a new idea or a new fashion. Imitation, not invention, is the utmost of which she is capable, and even in imitating she is slow.

It was the lightest, dain‘ reez- iest garment I ever had on, I felt lil feather in it, and was possessed with an irreRistible de- i ascend. Ithought that if If once got started I could wrap my arms aboul the ceil- ing. The front, from chin to hem, caught at intervals with clusters of pink, green and cream-colored ribbons tied in pigeon-win; bows. The yoke was cut square and made of insertion lace and ribbon alternating, and the girdle of silver and silk braid that gathered the fullness about the waist saved the lines of my figure. The sleeves were long, full and iffed from shoulder to wrist, and in the reust pocket was a tinted haadkerchief of silk mull, with decorated fern leaves In length the frock would be called demi-tr: ind the hem was padded with the most delicious sachet imagivable. The odor was the very sort Ouida uses in the hair and eyebrows of her leading ladies; it made one swoon in ecstacy, and but for its wavering subtility the fragrance would have heen over- powering. I viewed myself in a cheval glass and a hand mirror and was enraptured, Never imagined I could look so “utterly too.” Madame was ina quandary about the style of collar, She concluded that I had better have a high- cut rolling collar,and to get the effect she pinned a fold of the soft silk about my throat and caught up a sofa pillow of swans’ down, on which she laid my head, and told me to look in the glass. Just the thing, we both decided, ins out and arranged what she called a “pillow coil.” I told her that I was in the habit of sleeping with my locks in a loose pi il, and the horror that came to her face apps me. “Comfort? What is comfort to beauty? Look your best, child, and let your feelings take care of themselves, I insist that you wear the ‘pil- low coil” with this frock. The br: you can indulge with a less artistic robe de nuit.” The frock was sent home the following day in a willow basket the size of a = box. I put iton that night and went tc bed after parad- ing before the glass for an hour, but the dread of mussing the lovely stuff and the faint, sweet smell of the sachet kept me awake until abelfry clock struck 2, when I got up, exchanged the $32 frock for a $2 muslin gown, the “pillow coil” for a pigtail and just.

Jake Thompson, a colored Baptist of some prominence of Bedford county, Va, was re- cently made “treasure holder” for a congrega- tion of Baptists who took a collection for building a new house of worship. The amount realized was about $700, and Thompson carried it home with him, On the way he claims to have got soaking wet from the rain, and that the $700 in greenbacks was likewise soaked. When calied upon to return the money he re- orted as above, and further alleges that when Ee got home he spread the money op a plank in the sunshine to dry and went about oth affairs, and that on his return he found that storm of wind had blown the last dollar of money away. Nothing has been seen of the treasure since, although diligent search has been made in the regions round Thompson's home. So of the brethren think that Thompson's story is very thin, but they do not know what course in law to pursue to regain the money. Thompson has just bought a little farm and built a house on it. $3 t0 ATLantic City axp Back.—Good on all regular trains of Saturday, August 3d, also special train leaves B. & O, depot at 4:20 p.m., Saturday, August 3.

We trust you'll be- lieve us when we declare to you that this is a Clothing Corner—conceived in a desire to do good and born and reared in the fostering and fulfilling of that desire toward all men. We have succeeded so well that we propose hewing close to the saihe line for all time to come, and invite you to share the rich fruits of our bountiful reward. ‘Your generous patronage has made it possivle for us todo some TALL tumbling in the matter of prices— terrifying indeed to those dealers who stick to TALL Prices—but exceedingly edifying, agreeable, aye, par- ticularly pleasant, to BUYERS of high or low degree. It tickles them tremendously to have spread out be- fore them an array of Elegant Suits, worth from 910.75 to 813.75, and be told to take their choice AT 87.50 A SUIT. And yet another agreeable surprise follows close upon the heels of the first, Here we find Imported and Domestic Worsteds, Cheviots, and Cassimers, fashioned by the tailors’ art into perfect-fitting Suits for Men, worth from $14.25 to $20 a suit.
