CITY AN D_DISTRICT. PF The difference between a loose vague boast and an affidavit giving exact figures is a wide one, and of great significance to # person interested in the statement. Tur Stam swears fo its circulation. This is a point of great im portance to advertisera. THE SEAL FISHERIES. Secretary Windom Opposed to Govern- mental Management. Secretary Windom has written a letter to Senator Frye in response to one from the Sen- ator inclosing Senate:bill 1969, “to repeal so much of the act of July 1, 1870, chapter 189, as authorizes the leasing of the rights to engage im taking fur seals from the islands of St. Paul and St. George, and for other purposes,” and Fequesting the Secretary to furnish the com- mittee with suggestions touching the merits of the bill and the propriety of its passage. The Secretary takes the ground that it would not be wise or practicable for the department to attempt to conduct the seal fur trade, killing the seal and marketing the pelts for the gov- ernment. The report of Secretary McCulloch, the reports of the ways and means committee of the Forty-uinth Congress and of the committee on merchant marine and fisheries of the last Congress are quoted in sup- port of the present system of leasing. and the Secretary states that the results from the system have been very satisfactory to the government. As a further argument against Senator Frye’s pian he states that the government agents would be ata great disad- vantage in offering the | ony in the public market by reason of the fact that they could not enter into the secret and confidential trade relations necessary to success in this business, ‘They could not adopt the customary business methods. “Such a method,” he says, “of con- ducting the government business would evoke incessant charges of fraud, collusion and em- bezzlement, no matter how honestly the work might be done. The whole business would be involved in continual scandal and annoyance and the Secretary would be harrassed until the subject became simply unendurable. Follow- ing such a failure would probably come an at- tempted return by the government to the con- tract system, but with a market meantime de- moralized or destroved and the value of the seal industry correspondingly depreciated. In my judgment any minor faults attending the contract system can better be removed by in- creased vigilance of administratioa than by an abolition of the system itself and the substitu- tion of a policy which is open to objections so many and so fundamental. In view of these self-evident difficulties the present system commends itself to my judgment as the wisest and best for the government to adopt for the future. * * * I believe that neither the interests of the government nor of the natives on those islands would be subserved by the passage of this bill.” The Sunflower as the National Emblem. To the Editor of Tue EVENING Star The sunflower, once sacred to the sun god of Mexico, is, like the dahlia, which it resembies, @ native of this continent. Being a useful and favorite plant. easily cultivated, it is univer- sally diffused from Maine to Mississippi, which boasts its county of Sunflower andariver of the sanie name. There are nearly tifty species of this magnificent flower. The sun and stars are our symbols, Foreigners accuse our flag of being plain and mean in design compared with the gorgeous ners of other nations. The emblematic sunflower should adorn our banner, as the rose and lily flourished on the standards re and England in the days of chivalry, © guzing at the sum surrounded f America would be hard to Tiuiscuanp Srvart Evays. rival in glory. - = Fire in Montgomery County. The residence of Mr. Robert Walker Abert, within about half a mile of the home of his father, Charies Abert, esq., near Norbeck, in Montgomery county, was destroyed by tire Weduesday afternoon. The fire is supposed to bave originated from sparks escaping from the ney and lodging on the shingle roof. It bout 1 o'clock m the afternoon that Mrs. while in her bed room observed a dense » outside, and running down stairs found the rear of the house in flames. She attempted to return to her room, but the smoke ren- dered it impossible. A strong wind carried the flames through the house and allowed oppor- tunity to save only the furniture and library on the first floor. All the bed room furniture and clothing were consumed. When Mr. Abert returned from Washington in the evening two chimneys and a smouldering pile of ruins were all that were to be seen of the comfortable home he bad left in the morning. His family found refuge in the home of his father. a Is Hypnotism Dangerous? To the Editor of Tux EvEsine Stan Your copying from the Pall Mall Burget an acccount of apocryphal cases of suicide and as- Sassination under the influence of hypnotism leads me to express doubt that any such crimes have been thus committed. There is certainly BO authentication of any. do not say they might not take place; indeed. I have no doubt that at short rauge, where the responsive is near to the mesmerized, vicarious assassination and suicide are both possible. as ure forgery, rjury, arson and sexual offenses. And this fact, instead of being a reason why hypnotism should be avoided and ignored, 1s reason why it should be investigated ‘and studied. What, then, shall be said or thought of the medical societies of a great city which deliber- ately refuse to examine this potent force or take any means to inform themselves concern- ing its conditions and limitations? The more dangerous to human hfe and human rights hypnotism can be shown to the more promptly should medical men take it in hand and the more earnestly they should study its conditions and limitations. ~ W.

Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Payne were killed yesterday afternoon while on the way to wit- ness the interment of their five-months-old child in Rose Hill cemetery, Chicago. Simon Anderson, the driver of their carriage, and Mrs. Reprogal, who was accompanying them on their sad errand, were also killed. Near the cemetery gate the carriage had to cross the tracks of the Chicago and Northwestern rail- road. The hearse reached the grave yard en- trance without mishap and was being followed by the carriage. No flagman is stationed at the crossing by the railroad company and the driver did not see the in-bound Chicago ex- press until it was almost upon him. The en- gine struck the center of the carriage and Mr. and Mrs. Payne were dashed to death in an in- stant. Their bodies were thrown about thirty feet and were mutilated beyond recognition, ‘The carriage was utterly demolished. Ander- son, the driver, was picked up insensible. He had several ribs broken and his skull was badly fractured. Mrs. Reprogal’s injuries were equally severe aad each died in a short time. ‘The nine-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Payne was also in the carriage, but, strangely enough, escaped with slight scalp wounds. Fifteen coaches containing additional mourn- ers were in the rear of the Payne vehicle, but were unharmed. a eee Terrible Sufferings of a Crew. Three schooners—Ocean Belle, Sylph and Virgesco—from Newfoundland, arrived at Hali- fax yesterday. The crew of the Virgesco were without water for three days, and when the schooner finaily anchored in St. Peter's bay, C. B.. all hands were in an exhausted condition and badly frost bitten. A blizzard prevailed for six hours on January 8, and about forty fishing vessels were caught in it and lost all of their deck loads. A Madman’s Headlong Leap. Wednesday night the authorities at the Nor- ristown, Pa., insane hospital held the monthly ball for the patients. which came off in the spacious chapel. As is customary on such oc- casious the male attendants danced with the female patients and women attendants were partners of the men. As the evening wore on the atmosphere became very close and the win- dows were lowered. Isaac G. Anthony, one of the patients, who was confined in the violent ward. as he came waltzing by one of the windows flung his partner from him and, making a fly- ing leap, drove headtoremost through it. He alighted upon the ground 30 feet below, feet foremost. and made his escape. Anthony is a large and athletic patient, committed from Philadelphia, where it is supposed he has gone. No trace of him has been discovered. : coo Goebler Got His Man. Alittle man, witha slouch hat, which was well drawn over his eyes, tripped down the steps of the Astor house,on Broadway, at a few minutes past 9 o'clock yesterday morning. At the corner of Vesey street he met Lewis Davis, aman whom he had been looking for for weeks. They exchanged a few words. Davis turned on his heel and started away. Tie little man, hard A. E. Goebler, who was buncoed out of 21,500 recently, drew out a pistol and told Davis to halt. Davis. who is very powerful and much younger than the little man, stood still and turned pale. This strange tableau attracted hundreds who were passing. The wiry little German held the pistol im position until Officer Barry of the roadway squad came and took the weapon from the excited man. The pair were then taken to the Tombs. Goebler had been in t! city but a short time from Butte City, Mont., when he was buncoed. Davis was held for trial, Se ae Died After Circumcision. An infant, thirteen days old, son of W. J. Wreschinski, died on Wednesday in New York of blood poisoning.

While in | the English channel she encountered strong gales from the west, with heavy seas, but in the Atlantic the gale became a perfect hurri- cane, with mountainous seas which swept cver | her decks. The Rhynland withstood these gales | easily until January 12, when one of the most | terrific storms ever experienced came on. Whe | sea was terrible, and mountainous waves swept over the decks with such fury that six of the life boats on the upper deck were stove. At about the same time a terrific wave boarded the ship astern, crushing in the turtle back over the stecring machinery and rendering all stéer- ing impossible. ‘Phen it was that the steamer was saved from almost inevitable wreck through the heroic ex ertions of Capt. Weyer and his eflicient officers, | for the sailors, fearing to expose themselves, | where the huge seas were continually sweeping over the decks, were only encouraged by the | noble example of their captain and his otticers, | who went immediately, at the risk of their lives, to the scene of the disaster. The damage was temporarily repaired, so as to render stecring | ossible, The weather continued stormy up to Neciay 17, when it abated, and the wind blow- ing from N.N.W. the steamer was enabled to put on all sail and hopes of reaching New York in a few days were entertained, but the next day | dispelled these illusions, for a’ gale even more | terrific than the former one came on, lasting to the following morning. At this time it was found that the coal was running short, so the ship was headed for Hal- ifax, where she arrived at about noon on the 20th, She proceeded again, and during the re- | mainder of the voyage had heavy westerly gales | and a high southerly sea with frequent snow squalls and intensely cold weather, ——soe A Juror Murdered.

Gill was found lying on his face with his overcoat on and both hands in his pockets. The ball bad apparently been fired from a $8 caliber revolver.
