HUNGARIAN OUTRAGES. Deplorable Condition of Things in the Connellsville Coke Region. ‘The Pittsbarg Times today publishes the result of an investigation by a staff correspondent of the deplorable situation of affairs in the Con- nelisville coke region. The reports that have been sent in from the coke country of the rav- ages of the Hungarians are bad enough to rouse the phlegmatic citizens, but the actual condition of affairs is almost beyond descrip- tion. Anarchy is speenecs in the minds of the Huns.who have been incited to acts of law- less deeds of violence by the ringleaders, Jacob Otto and Christ Body,two confirmed red- fag and blood anarchists, who were disch rom the mines because of anarchistic tenden- cies. They have gone through the region, join- ing with kindred spirits, planting seeds of revo- Jution and murder amoung the ignorant Huns. ‘They are fully aware that they have won the late strike, but what they want is pillage avd plunder anda general dranken jubilee. For Over two weeks the country side has been in a gate of terror and the hamlet of Mutual is the only place that has not been visited with devastation. VALUABLE PROPERTY HAS BEEN WANTONLY DE- STROYED and peaceable citizens have been subjected to Personal injury and abuse. Women have been threatened and men have been clubbed into insensibility, some killed outright aud others disabied for life. The inhabitants of Mutual have been frequently threatened and on sev- eral occasions have fled to the hillsides for shelter. The reason for their ee tive safety hes in the fact—which has become known to the marauders—that every man in the Village has supplied himself with Winchester rifles and pm one and the streets are patrolled nightly. The citizens are determined to pro- tect themselves and their families, saying that they would sooner part with their four barrels than their guns, and cannot be blamed for taking the law into their own hands. Petitions are in circulation asking the governor to pro- vide help and relief. Everybody is alive to the situation and unites in demanding the removal of this lawless element from the coke regions. A Greenburg dispatch says that the hearing of the Hungarian cases was concluded yester- day at noon. Of the twenty-three held over from Monday eight were discharged and fifteen held for court, oue of whom entered bail in the sum of $500 and was released. The other four- teen, it is thought, will secure the necessary bail today. tee Another Cronin Clue. ‘The Chicago police have secured some im- portant evidence in the Cronin case. It is said to be to the effect thaton the night of the mur- der a pair of horses belonging to O'Sullivan, the ice man, now in jail as one of Cronin’s * murderers, were attached to one of his ice wagous, and were driven rapidly in the vicinity in which the murder was committed by three excited men; that the horses were driven up in front of a saloon in Lake View at about 9 o'clock; that they were covered with foam, and that the men in the wagon went in and hada drimk. It had been supposed ever since the murder that these horses remained in the barn all vight that night. The police admit the substantial correctness of these statements, but decline to speak further about the matter except to say that neither of the men in the ‘wagon is in jail. * eee —_—___ so Trrr.—Every Thursday to No confusion or crowding.

From the San Francisco Chronicie. Areturned Hawaiian from Salt Lake City gives a dismal picture of the condition of the colony of Kanakas among the saints. These people were enconraged by Mormon mission- aries to go to Utah because it was then thought they could be made voters, and thus add to the strength of the church party, but as the supreme court of Utah has recently decided that they are ineligible to citizenship, the Mor- mous are no longer interested in them. The Hawaiians find they have to work far harder in Utab to make a living than they ever worked at home, and they are now trying to get free transportation to the islands, but thus far they have met with no success, Their experience is & good example of the folly of any of these islanders leaving their homes to enter into competition wit!

A Delhi, N.Y., special to the Philadelphia Press says: The arrest at Meadville, Pa., of Seymour Hitchcock and wife on the charge of using the United States mails for purposes of fraud is a matter of special interest in this vicinity where the offenders are well known and where they began their course of swind- ling. Seymour Hitchcock is the son of Matthew Hitchcock, a well-to-do and highly respectable farmer of the town of Franklin, this county. Several years ago young Hitchcock, while still living with his pareute, saw an advertise- ment in a so-called matrimonial newspaper, setting forth that a young woman wanted a husband and invited correspondence, He wrote to the advertiser, who proved to be Sarah Hugell, a young woman with a curious history. She is the daughter of respectable parents living near Smithport, Pa. When six- teen years old she made a runaway match with a good-looking — fellow, who first ill- treated and then deserted her. Fora year or two following, it is said, she led a gay life on the strength of liberal drafts upon the bank account of a wealthy oil operator. When this resource failed she sought a husband through the columns of the matrimonial newspapers. She is not noticeably handsome, but she is bright and artful and of winning ways. She = perceived that a marriage with young itehcock would bring money and a degree of respectability and she spread a net that landed him. After a time old Mr, Hitchcock got tired of maintaining an idle sou arid a gay ‘and ex- —— daughter-in-law and cut the sup- plies, The clever and unscrupulous woman was equal to the emergency. She took her husband to Oneonto and from that point sent advertise- ments to Chicago and San Francisco papers, saying that a respectable young widow desired to hear from a western gentleman of means and good standing with a view to matrimony. She got letters by the score from all parts of the not fail to please the eye, it exhibits a degree of refined taste far in advance of what one would naturally expect in a frontier state, over whose bills, until within a few years, herds of buffalo ranged in unchecked freedom. We have given greater space to the subject than we otherwise should because it is the work of single private citizen rather than that of acorporation. We have seen so many men gtow suddenly rich im the far western states who have rushed off to New York or some other Atlantic city to enjoy their wealth that we feel & proper pride in acitizen who remains in the community where he amassed his competency and devotes it to the increase of its focal wealth. It may seem like a wild and reckless asser- tion, but we predict that in less than five years Heleva will be known as the Carlsbad of Amer- ica. Its vituation half way between the Pacific ocean and the Mississippi river guarantees a continuous stream of visitors from either side. In this respect it has a great advantage over the famous Del Monte hotel at Monterey, which is very remote from all cities save San Francisco, We believe that it will be as great ® success financially as architectarally, and that the fame of its heali: raters will be- come @ houseboid word in the land. ees His Best Works Inspired by “Sake.” ‘From a Japanese Paper.

Should Wives Work for Money. From Harper's Bazar. ‘There was a time when it was thought that a married woman who worked for money in some way reflected discredit upon her husbanu by an im plication of his lack of ability to support her as she wished to live.

WHAT THE BUSTON STRUCK. The Mishap Said to Have Been Due to # Sunken Wreck. The judge advocate general of the navy has received the record in the case of Capt, O’Kane, who commanded the cruiser Boston when she ran on a rock last week in Newport harbor, It will not be given to the public until after the return of Secretary Tracy next week. It is known, however, that the court virtually acquits Capt. O’Kane of any blame for the accident. The theory of the court is that the Boston did not strike a rock. The harbor of Newport is plotted and every rock is known and indicated on the official chart. The court believes that the Boston must have struck some sunken wreck, which, of course,-was not known to the commanding officer of the Boston. The courts recommends that no further action be taken in the case. In the meanwhile the ship has been docked at New York. oo __—_ DEATH IN THE ELIXIR. Dr. Allan McLane Hamilton Thinks It is ‘Worse Than a Mere Humbug. A New York special to the Philadeiphia Press says that Dr. Allan McLane Hamilton. who has just returned from abroad, was at his home, 20 East 29th street, yesterday. He talked very freely about the Brown-Sequard elixir of life. “It is one of the sensations of the day in Paris,” he said. “At the time I left there were only two men who had taken the injection—the doctor and one other. If it had not been the work of a man of standing I should not have considered the matter at all; I should have put it down as arrant humbug. But I investigated the matter eutticiently andI am sure the at- tempt to renew a man's youth in that way is absurd. I have not made any experiments and I do not intend to make any. e theory is opposed to all the laws of physiology and chemistry. Further than that, ! believe it is a very dangerous proceeding, and that it is time for reputable physicians to express their dis- approval of the experiments.” “In what way is it dangerous?” “There is great danger of introducing a viru- lent poison into the system, It is well known that the putrefaction of albumen produces some of the most deadly poisons. It is quite possible that this substance injected into the veins should act there as the arrow poison does which is used by the South American Indians. When the elixir is sterilized by heat or the ad- mixture of substance to prevent decay it is quite certain that the elixir must be so changed as to lose any beneficial element it may have had when fresh. But I do not believe it has any beneficial element when fresh, When killfully prepared and injected before decay sets in it would have no more effect than water would, But there is always danger. Itis hard to tell when the moment has passed at which the harmless substance becomes dangero' The juices of a newly dead body, as undertakers and medical students know, are much more dangerous when absorbed through a wound than those of a body that has been preserved some time. Dr. Brown-Sequard’s injections were all very painful. I believe that many cases of erysipelas have followed these injec- tions.” As an offset to the Brown-Sequard elixir there is a device for the treatment of nervous dis- eases, which Dr. Hamilton brought from Paris with him and which he says is well worth con- sideration. Itis the invention of Dr. Luis of Paris. It is a simple affair, There is a little cherry box about five inches square, above which aly pes two shafts, one within the other, sleeve und arm fashion, On each shaft is bal- anced a black bar nine inches long, an inch wide and a quarter inch thick, edge up. By | clock work in the box these ebony arms or bars are made to revolve in opposite directions, Six little round mirrors are placed on each side of each bar. The patient is placed in chair in a dark room, facing the machine. An electric hght or any bright light 18 con- centrated on the black arms of the machine by a convex mirror piaced behind the patient, and then the arms are set whirling. The patient watches them whirl, The motion and flashing | lights operated on the nerves through the eyes. | Dr. Hamilton said he had seen patients put to sleep by this means and some extraordinary cures accomplished. The explanation of the effect of the whirling arms auc fiashing lights is that they change the habit of the brain. The effect is analogous to that produced by soft music on a nervous or irritated man, but the rhythm of regularly flashing lights has a more powerful effect upon the brain than the rhythm of music, STEALING JULIET’S TOMB. The Evglishman Who Tried to Run Away With a Large Piece. A correspondent at Rome writes as follows to the Glasgow Herald: “Of the strange fortunes that may come to men of great name after death many authors have written. Sir Thomes Browne tells us that ‘the Egyptian mummies, which Cambyses or time hath spared, avarice now consumeth. Mummy is become merchan- dise, Misraim cures wounds, and Pharaoh is sold for balsams,’ That may account for the dis- appearance of a dead body, but some other feeling must actuate those who carry away part of atomb. One of the choicest attractions of Verona for strangers, especially for those who know the works of Shakespeare, is the so-called tomb of Juliet in the garden of the Franciscan puns, in the vicinity of the swift-flowing Adige, A large portion—no less than six pounds’ weight—of this tomb was broken off and was almost carried away by a person described as an Englishman. ‘The story, as told in the Ve- rona papers, relates that an English lady aud eutleman went to visit the tomb of Julict and Soatag teres or Oar days ago. Before leaving the spot the Englishman handed a note of 10f. to the custodian of the place in order that the ordinary fee might be deducted and the change handed to the visitor. While the custodian searched in his pockets for change the tourist produced a hammer from his Ree et, and by a sharp blow on the rude sarcophezus of red Ve- rona marble which is said to have enshrined Juliet broke o! piece of about three kilo- grammes, or six pounds in weight. Then he moved away rapidly from the sccne of destruc- tion and desecration. The custodian, who had observed the deed, pursued him and suggested the propriety of his giving up the plunder. The Englishman protested, and it was only after a lengthened debate that the visitor finally delivered up the fragment broken off the Juhet sarcophagus, Such is the story now joing the round of the papers. In Gustave ore's illustration to ‘L'spagne’ of Baron Davil- lier there 1s an illustration entitled “Phe Rob- bers of Azulejos (tiles) at the Alhambra,’ rep- resenting an Englishman of the continental type, accompanied by his wife and engaged in hammering off the colored tiles from the walls of that incomparable building, This is the idea that many Wrench and Spanish and Italian people have of the Englishman abroad. ~The report of the attempt to carry off three kilo- a of Juliet’s tomb will confirm the old idea. It matters but little that no one who knows the history of the place regards the tomb as genuine; for the people of Verona it is at least as effective in inducing strangers to visit their city as if it were the indisputable | sepulcher of the unfortunate daughter of the Capuleta, Murray notes that ‘it certainly was shown iu the last century, before Shakes; became generally known to the Italians, * * * Maria Louise got a bit of it, which she caused to be divided into hearts and gems, ele- gant necklaces, bracelets, &c.. and many other sentimental young and elderly ladies have fol- 1 her majesty’s example.’ It is all very weil for aroyal personage, such as Maria Louise, to get a bit of this trough-like tomb, but an un- known English traveler who attempts to carry off six pounds of red marble in a surreptitious 2 manuer, even for the gratification of sentiment, is treated with scorn by the journalists of the whole country, and deservedly so.” ————ce+- —__ Congressman Laird’s Funeral.

Terrible Death From a Boiler Explo- sion in Pittsburg. . The boiler explosion at Gangwische's brew- ery in Pitwhburg yesterday, of which brief mention was made in Tue Stak, did not prove 80 disastrous in the loss of life as at first re- ported, only one man being killed and one man anda young woman being injured. The boiler was being repaired, and Andrew Snyder, who was doing the work, was sitting alongside his wife in another room eating his noonday lunch. He left his wife and started to look at the boiler, and just as he got near it the boiler burst, literally throwing poor Snyder out through a brick wall across the street and under a freight car, the body traveling a dis- tance of about fifty feet. The body was badly bruised and death was no doubt instantaneous, A Swede named Johnson, who was working in the brewery, was injured about the wrist and le, and Mise Lizzie Blaske, who was em- ployed in a neighboring house, was injured about the back. ‘The building was ly wrecked. : Several of the neighboring houses were badly wrecked, one in particular having the entire back caved in. Lizzie Blaske, employed as a domestic in the boarding house of Henry Ga- ber, in the rear of the brewery, made a remark- able escape from death. She was working ip & kitchen about 20 feet from the boiler and the fragments fell in a shower around her, knocking over chairs, cutting the legs from a table at which she was standing, scattering tins, pans and other utensils, tearing the walls ofthe kitcnen and filling the room full of smutty debris, and yet she suffered no injury save aslight cut on the head and a hysterical fright. trom which she soon recovered, ight boarders of Gaber’s were seated around ae dinner table in the second story, and although the rear portion of the brick building in which they were located was partly demolished, and pieces of grate. bars and brick went whizzing through the dining room and all were thrown from their chairs by the ex- Plosion, none had the slightest wound inflicted, and the only one injured in this part of the building was a Swede, whose name could not be learned, one of whose arms was slightly cut. The explosion resulted from the giving way of the stand bolts, which caused the crown sheet to blow out. When this gave way the force was so great that the boiler was upturned and carried a distance of 20 tect and lodged in the adjoining yard, and is now standing per- pendicular. Pieces of the boiler which were picked up Were as thin as a wafer and gave evidence that was badly burned out. Brnintertb sh CAPTURED IN THE SURF. M. Hatmont, of Bank of France Noto- riety, Arrested at Brighton Beach. ir While Paul Haimont, a Frenchman, was en- joyiug asurf bath at Brighton Beach Monday he was arrested in the water by Deputy Mar- shal Bernbard,accused of stealing 165,000 francs from the Bank of France, A short time ago a Mr. Noll and his wife were arrested in New York city on requisition of the French government, It was stated at that time that Noll had pilfered the safes of the Bank of France, whose cashier he was, for a consider- able amount. It is generally conceded that everything that happens in France is attribu- table to a woman, and so it was as regards this crime. It was Noll’s wife who inspired the lot, and it was because she loved horse races, award games and other things of luxury. It was known that Mrs. Noll had bad inti- mate relations with two French sportsmen, one a Mr. Haimont of Paria and the other a Mr. Pean from Lyons. Both men disappeared sim- ultancously with the guilty couple and the quartet first went to London. There Mrs. Noll and Peau separated from the others and came to New York. Later the husband and the other friend joined the fugitives in this city. They had a short but jolly time here, when Mr. and Mrs. Noll were arrested andseut back to France, in spite of their protest. Peau bad returned previously with 20,000 francs, the gift of his friend Mre. Noll. Deputy Marshal Bernhard atthattime wanted to arrest Haimont also,but Mrs. Noll protested, under her oath, that Haimont was entirely in- nocent or the crime and had nothing do with it. No great amount of money or prop- erty was found when the couple were ex- tradited. Yesterday Deputy Marshal Bernhard, through the French consul, received a cablegram re- questing the immediate arrest and extradition of Haimont, While on trial before a Paris court Mrs. Noll had confessed that the theft was the sole work of Haimont and that he had also retained possession of the money. Deputy Marshal Bernhard does not believe that Hai- Mont is in possession of the stolen property. or A FAD IN SERVANT GIRLS. The Rage for Pretty Faces and Figures for Waiting Maids. ‘There 1s a summer fad in servant girls, It is indulged at the showiest resorts. such as Sara- toga and Long Branch, It consists of the selec- tion of pretty girls, and then of their extreme embellishment, “Nothing marks the distinction between the ARISTOCRAT AND THE PARVENUS more plainly than the manner in which they treut their servants,” said the employer of this elegant creature. “A lady is known by her con- sideration for her inferiors, and her manner becomes doubly gentle when she is addressing those who are precluded by their position from ever making an irritable reply. She feels proper respect for the people on whom so much of her comfort depends, aud her dependent treats her with respect in return, She is as firm as she is gentle, and expects perfect obedi- ence to her requests, How different this from the manners of the es who delights in showing her independence with regard to her newily-acquired possessions.” I might have replied that it was no kindness to incite vanity in @ maid-servant, but what wouid have been the use? You can't convince a woman of her folly when she delights in it. Another rich young wife, herself a beauty, beats them all at Saratoga ‘by having a pretty creature attend her on the lawn when she plays tennis or grace-hoop. The latier game, con- sisting of arevival of the old exercises of toss- ing and catching hoops with sticks, isa new rage. This girl is an adept at it, and her pos- turings are the perfection of pliant grace. maid is a tall and really elegant blonde Swede, looking more like a duchess than a menial. But it 1s a bachelor right here in town who caps the climax in dainty servitors, It is the proper thing, as you may know, for young un- married men to live in very luxurious apert- ments—if they can afford it—and to invite par- ties of indies and gentlemen to suppers therein, Well, this fellow astonished such an assemblage by having by long odds the sweetest thing they had ever seen in waitresses. She looked like a heroine stepped right out of anovel, and it was curiously observed, as she passed the refresh- ments about, that her hands were unstaived by labor, Judging by the acclaim which we ladies heard after we had retired from the dining room, and when this girl went into them with the cigarettes, she was deemed a success by the Masculine guests. ‘Lhe rest of us were not so unanimously of that way of thinking. “Evidently her employer doesn’t set her to scrubbing,” said one woman to her husband, calling attention to the delicate, taper and well- manicured hands of the girl. “Weil,” the husband inadvertently ex- claimed, “any man would be a brute to make such a working girl work.” eee Republican Votes Thrown Out.

Pull: | THE EVENING STAR ts a PAPER OF TO-DAY, not of YESTERDAY nor of LAST WEEK. It prints ALL THE NEWS, Local, Domestic and Forciga, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN- ING PAPEKS. This is conspicuously true of all classes of news, but especially so in regard to Local News and District Affairs. THE STAR h very much LARGER and BETPER force of LOCAL RK- PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITERS than any other paper In Washington ever thought of employing, and ITS MECHANICAL QUIPMENT AND PRINTING FACILITIES ARE MORK THAN THRE TIMES AS POWER- FUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY OTHER WASHINGTON PAPER. It is therefore able to print each day a full report of every transaction of public ine terest occurring in the District up to the very hour of going to press. —:0:—_— By the free use of the OCEAN CABLES for REGULAR AND SPECIAL Dis- PATCHES, and with the difference of time in its tavor, it is also able to give its readers every afternoon the news of the WHOLE EASTERN HEMISPHERE for the entire day, and up to 12 o'clock midnight, thus leaving literally nothing in the way of news irom Kurope, Asia, and Airica for the morning papers. so: Equally does THE STAR lead all its contemporaries in the publication of the NEWS UF OULK OWN COUNTRY. Receiving the regular dispatches of both News Associatious; with alert and enter rising special telegraphic cor- | respondents at ail important poiuts; and with wires leading directly trom its owa oflice to the general network of telegraph system touching every city, town and Hamlet in the United States and Terri- tories, it is enabled to receive aud print atouce « full report of every event of consequence occurring during the day anywhere between the AUauuc and Pe- cilic Uceans. —0:—— 67 NOTE THE RESULT: —o: THE STAR HAS MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR SUBSCRILERS and MORE THAN FIVE TIMES AS MANY KHGULAR READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY PAPER IN WASHINGTON, It is de- livered regularly by careful carriers at the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WOKRY OF THE SAY ARE OVER, and it is thus read leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. They know that it prints all the news, and has only the interests of the people of the District in view, with no partisan measures to advocate, and no private schemes to forward. They know it,in short, tobe THE PEOPLE’S PAPER, and nothing else. Asan ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSU- LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL. It is in fact worth more as a means of reach- ing the public THAN ALL THE OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THE CITY TOGE1 HER, Furthermore, in proportion to the re- turns it gives its patrous, ITS ADVER- TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPEST IN THE CITY. —-o: In conclusion, the public should bear in mind this one siguificant fact: THE STAK does not rely upon empty boasts to impress the public. ITS CURCULA- TION IS SWORN TO; its PRESS- ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC; and its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED by any one having an interest in their examination. These are CRUCIAL TESTS, which tew papers invite, and which those that boust most are least uble to stand. —:0:—— €2 The esteem in which THE STAR is held by the reading and advertising public is conclusively shown by the ge ures given below. In the first six months of each of the five years named the average daily cir- culation of the paper was: Equally significant is the showing in regard to the advertising patronage of the paper, which is the surest indication Of its acknowledged vaiue as # medium of publicity. Thenumber of NEW AD- VELTISELMENTS printed in the col- umns of The Star during the first six months of We years vamed was as fole
