BARR, 1111 Penna ave my6 Before Iowa Had a Prohibition Law. From the Des Moines Register. Alderman Drady now lives up in north Des Moines. He lived down in the first ward for thirty-four years and was as much a fixture of that section of the country as was the ’Coon river, The first night he lived on North 6th street he forgot all about it, and being down town very late, started to go back to the old house in the first ward. When he reached a point near the corner of 5th aud Market streets an_ old friend asked him where he was going. “Going tome home, of course, replied Mr. Drady. “Michael, and don’t you know you live in north Des Moines?” “Gosh, that’s 80,” said the ex-alderman,very much mortified, and he started on his journey back to town’ and thence up the hill. This “break” recalls a famous story told by Mr. Drady in a noted meeting of the commer- cial exchange. It was in the early days of Des Momes. In the year1. Mr. Drady had just been elected an alderman, and one night ufter cclebrating his election he returned home rather late. South Des Moines didu’t have regularly laid out streets in those days. It was a patch of brushwood and willows. with houses scattered here and there. Mr. Drady lost his way home and foundered abvut in the mud and willows for several hours, Finally he emerged from the dense darkness and beheld the gleam of a friendly candle. He made straight for the cabin in which the light was burning. He knocked at the door. A woman in a night gown partially opened it. “Can you tell me, madam, where Alderman Drady lives?” asked the lost man, “Why, Mike, are you crazy?” It was Mrs’ Drady and the newly elected alderman had been knocking at his own door, oe Niagara Shallow Above the Falls.

CLOSING THEIR WORK. The Award of Prizes at the Photogra- phers’ Convention. The Photographers’ Association was in a thankful mood this morning and began its final business session by passing several votes ex- pressive of grati; tothe various persons who have lent a make the convention suceess, The officers of the National Museum came in first for a large share and the executive committee were then remembered, and finally the city papers were thanked for their hearty co-operation and intelligent accounts. HIGHER PRICES FOR PICTURES, The committee appointed to investigate the plan proposed by Mr. Davis of Charleston, W. Va., to secure higher prices reported that they did not think the plan feasible for present con- sideration. The reports of the committee on the award of prizes were then called for and came in slowly. THE DAGUERRE MEMORIAL FUND. Another chance to give toward the payment on the Daguerre memorial was then furnished anda number of liberal contributions were made. The president announced that it was safe to say that the deficit in the sum still amounted to at least €2,000, and that there was still ty of room for contributions. E. J. Pullman of this city promised to take a cabinet photograph of the memorial as soon as it is unveiled and said that he would send one copy to each member who would sead him a contribution of one dollar or more for the memorial tund, 3 Mr. Gentile moved that after all other mea: of obtaining the necessary sum to pay off the balance of the debt had ‘been exhausted the treasurer should pay off the remainder out of the money in the treasury, This scheme, how- ever, did not seem to be favorably received, for it was thought it would deter future sub- scriptions, Mr. Gentile withdrew his motion and Dr. Elliott moved that the whole matter of providing for the payment of the memorial should be referred to the executive committee, with full power. This Was carried without a dissenting voice. THANKS FROM PRESIDENT APPLETON. The president announced that the committee would probably continue the award of a grand prize for the illustration of a short poem, and he called for any suggestions, but there were none made. President Appleton in his closing speech of the morning’s session said that he must personally thank all the members of the association, the officers and employes of the museum and anumber of others for their assist- ance in making the convention the complete success that it has been. He said that the as- sociation had never received such kind atten- tion in any other city that it had ever visited, nor had it ever had such satisfactory notices in the press of any city. Announcements were made about the excursion to Mount Vernon tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, and also about the opening of the Corcoran Art Gallery tomorrow morning. AWARD OF PRIZES. The award of prizes offered by the various photographic supply companies was then made before the announcement of the regular awards, Anthony’s prize of @100 for the best bromide was awarded to Mr. Mates, Atlanta, Ga.; the second, $50, to A. A. Knox, New York. Anthony's prize for laadscape on climax films, €50, to C. E. Vudenburgh, Elizabethtown, N.Y. An air brush was awarded to P. Fleming, Chicago, for the best water color painting and one to C. Y. Waldeck, St. Louis, for the best black and white portrait. One hundred dollars was awarded to P. H. Rose of Providence for the best print on the diamond albumen paper. A little discussion arose on the matter of founding a home as a sort of headquarters for the association, and at the motion of Dr. Elliott the whole matter was referred to a committee of five, to be appointed by the president. The chair ppontes Dr. Elliott, Messrs, W. H. H. Clarke, G. Cramer, L. G. Bigelow, C. Mates and W. G. Entrekin, THE AWARD OF PRIZES FOR PHOTOGRAPHS. The committee on prizes then reported, The grand prize—a bronze group, entitled “Near- ing the Goal”—was awarded to George H. Hast- ings of Boston for the best series of three pho- tographs illustrating the poem “Enoch Arden.” The other prizes were awarded as follows: Class A—S. L, Stein, Milwaukee. Class B, portrait photography—First, Dana, New York; second, J. Landy, Cincinnati; third, 0. P. Scott, Chicago. Class C—First, W. Steuber, Louisville; sec- ond, J. E.

Hanna of Auckland, New Zealand. ‘The committee awarded diplomas to the ex- hibit of burnt-in enamels of Benjamin Bros, and Werner of Cincinnati and a diploma to Ullman of New York. In each class where these prizes were offered the first was a handsome gold medal, the sec- ond a silv d the third a bronze medal. The announcement of the successful competitors closed the regular business of the session and when it was concluded President Appleton rapped once with his gavel and announced the convention adjourned sine die. MASTER OF CEREMONIES, Mr. H. McMichael of Buffalo was the master of ceremonies today at the Daguerre memorial ceremonies as chairman of the memorial com- - mittee, which has, in the short space of one year, produced this very creditable monument. # lie is an ex-prosident of the association, having been succeeded by Mr. Appleton. Mr. MeMich- ael was born in Norfolk ; county, Canada, in 1844, and until he attained his majority he ted the life of a farmer lad, At the age of twenty-one he started in to learn 1H. M’MICHAEL. photography and soon after opened a gallery in Hamilton, Ont.,where he was moderately successful. Buffalo pre- senting an apparently profitable field for this sort of work the young man soon picked up his camera and jars and developing trays and other goods and crossed the border into the freedom, He evidently found as much ersonal vanity among his new countrymen as reedom, for he began taking photographs at such a rate that his gallery soon became a urce of profit to him, with the exception of year, when he went prospecting in Cali- fornia with a view to opening up new photo- graphic possibilities, He has remained ever since in Buffalo. He was a member of the old Photographic Association, and in 1884 he re- joined the rejuvenated organization and was at once elected local secretary. This was at Cin- cinnati,and at the same convention he was made permanent secretary to fill the vacancy caused by the forced retirement of an untrust- worthy officer. At the St. Louis convention, held in 1885, he was re-elected by acclamation, but declined the position. At the Minneapolis convention, in 1888, he was chosen presidert on the first bailot, and in his inaugural speech, de- livered on the convention rostrum, he called attention to the then almost unknown fact that photography was on the eve of it fiftieth birth- y- THE MEMORIAL COMMITTEE. His graphic description of the struggles of Daguerre with the chemical elements and his glowing references to the wonderful boon conferred on civilization by that Frenchman aroused great enthusiasm and paved the way for the proceedings at the Boston convention the next year, when Mr. J. F. Ryder of Cleve- land moved the erection of a suitable monu- mentto Daguerre. This was carried over- whelmingly, and the retiring board of officers, composing the executive committee, was des- nated as a memorial committee.

RESULT OF AN INVESTIGATION BY TRE POSTAL aD- THORITIES—WHAT WAS DISCOVERED 48 TO PRINTING AND MAILING CIRCULARS—THE CASE IN CHARGE OF DISTRICT ATTORNEY BOGE. An investigation has recently been made into the business transacted by the Louisiana Lot- tery Company in this city. The purpose is to furnish evidence for a prosecution, and the at- tention of District Attorney Hoge has already been calied to the matter. The only law in re- gard to the transmission of lovtery matter through the mails is the following: “No letter or circular concerning lotteries, 80 called, gift concerts or other similar enter- prises, offering prizes or concerning schemes | devised and intended to deceive and defraud the public for the purpose of obtaining money under false pretenses shall be carried in t mail. Any person who shall knowingly de- posit or send anything to be conveyed by mail in violation of this sectioy shall be punishable by a fine of not more than $500 nor less than $100, with costs of prosecution.” WHAT THE SPECIAL AGENTS DISCOVERED. As the law does not confer the right to open sealed letters, the business of the lottery com- pany has gone on briskly, and, as has been dis- covered by the recent investigation of the special agents of the Post Office Department, it has reached large proportions in_ this city. From these reports it is ascertained that a box or bin in the city post office is assigned to the use of M. A. Dauphin of the Louisiana Lottery Company, and that the mail matter addressed to Dauphin was authorized by power of attor- | ney filed in the post office to be delivered to Charles Thompson, jr., an attorney for Dauphin in this city. 1 MATL. This mail 300 to 2,500 letters a day. Under an arrange- ment made several years ago this mail matter has been tied up in packages by the clerks in the post office and delivered to the person or his representative authorized to receive the Dauphin mail, It was found that these pack- ages were placed in satchels provided for the purpose by the Adams Express Company and were delivered each morniug to a messenger of the company. The wagon of this messenger was followed and it was found that he drove to the National Safe Deposit building, at the cor- ner of 15th street and New York avenue, where the mail was delivered to rooms rented in the third story. HOW TRE CIRCULARS WERE PRINTED AND MAILED. A watch was also maintained over a printing office on F street northwest and the agents dis- covered that lottery circulars were being printed there and when folded were delivered at the office in the National Safe Deposit build- ing. Early one morning the watchers saw an express wagon drive up to the building and eleven large wooden boxes and two United States post office mail sacks were loaded on the wagon. The wagon was then driven along F ‘street, and when opposite Willard Hall the load was deposited on the sidewalk. Subsequently two colored men in an old wagon drove up and putting in the wagon the boxes and sacks drove to the city post office, where the matter was unloaded. The colored men when questioned said that they had been told to say that they got their load from Wil- lard Hall. This plan of sending the mail mat- ter to the post office was adopted FOR THE PURPOSE OF EVADING RESPONSIBILITY for depositing lottery matter in the mail, which under the law is a punishable offense. This batch of matter was found to contain 23,000 letters, inclosed in two-cent envelopes. Some of them were found to be unsealed and the con- tents consisted of printed circulars containing the next lottery drawing. with information as to the price of tickets and where they couid be obtained. Some of the letters that were sealed when received by the addressees were found to be of a similar character. When the investigation had developed these facts the messenger of the express company when he called for the lottery mail was asked by what authority he received that mail. He replied that he was directed to call for a pack- age at the city post office and that he bad no authority to receive the mail of any person, The package was not delivered to him and the clerks were instructed to place the mail in the box rented by Mr. Dauphin. When Mr. Thompson, the attorney, calied he was informed that the mail would not be delivered to any one without he had full authority to receive it, but that it had been placed in the box, where any one could get it who had the key. WHAT POSTMASTER ROSS SAYS. Postmaster Ross told a Stan reporter that the practice of tying up the Dauphin mail in packages ready for delivery had been in vogue in the office for some years, It was done as a matter of convenience in the case of persons or firms receiving a large quantity of mail mat- ter. “It has been thought best,” he added, “to be more careful in the future and follow strictly the law. So hereafter the Dauphin mail will be placed in the box which he has leased. We deliver the mail matter, not to Mr. Dauphin but to any one to whom he gives a power of attorney for this purpose, and this authority is on file in this office.” Mr. Ross further stated that while this lottery matter was generally mailed in this city yet the stamps were purchs d in Baltimore. Recently, however, this had been changed und the stamps are purchased from the ottice that is required to do the work. EVADING THE LAW. It is stated that in order to evade the re- sponsibility of depositing lottery matter in the post office the plan has sometimes been adopted of sending the letters by express to Baltumore, where they have been deposited in the street letter boxes all over the city. As has been stated a portion of the evidence has been laid before District Attorney Hoge. It is probable that some action will be tak before long. Mr. Hoge is at present out of the city and when a Stak reporter called at his office this morning he was told by Mr. Hoge’s representative, Mr. Taggart, that the district attorney would be back ina day or two. Mr. Taggart decimed to make any statement as to the status of the lottery case before the office, preferring to have Mr. Hoge determine whether there is anything to be said for pubii- cation. CHIEF INSPECTOR RATHBONE of the Post Office Department, in talking toa Sran reporter of the lottery investigation, said that he had ascertained that next to Boston ® larger share of their business was done in this city than in any other, He said that immense sums of money were spent here every month for lot- tery, besides the sale of a large number of tickets which were distributed from this city. AN ILLUSTRATION OF THE METHOD EMPLOYED in communicating with the lottery company was seen bya Star reporter this morning as he stood by the desk of Assistant Postmaster Sherwood while he was opening his mail, One of the letters was addressed to the postmaster of this city. “That is a lottery ticket,” said Capt. Sher- wood. “I will bet anything.” When opened the envelope was found to inclose a letter addressed to M. A. Dauphin, Washington, D.C. The letter was properly stamped and although the postal authorities were morally certain that it contained unmail- able matter, yet there is no authority in law to either hold such a letter or to examine its contents, Capt. Sherwood said that a large number of letters came addressed in that way. They were sent to persons who wanted to avoid any pub- licity. On the other hand people living bere send directly to New Orleans for their tickets. —_— How to Boil an Egg. From the Chicago Tribune, “Isn't it strange,” said a short, foreign-look- ing man the other day to some companions while tunching together at one of the restau- rants, “that not one cook in fifty, nor house- keeper either, knows how to boil an egg?

Its Horrors Condemned by High Medi« cal Authority, From the Medical Record. Men of science have lent their best efforts to humor the whims of a few cranks and “world betterers.” who imagined they could make legal murder a fine art and enforce into it aa element of sentimentality which might rob it of ite atrocity, While we allow that electricity has” been @ Success as far as the killing is concerned, we must also admit that we have gained Little, if anything, over the ordinary method of execu- tion by hanging. The preliminaries of eleo- trothanasia are far from pleasant to conteme Plate. Alongside of those for hanging they are Pretentiously horrible. There is something more than weird in the preparation of the machine, the deliberate fixation of the victim, the adjustment of the electrode, and the “thousand deaths in contemplating oue,” which more than offsets the quok though damnable “taking off.” The horrors, though hidden, are nevertheless felt, There is something else to be thought of than the mere quickness of death. While the latter might have been triumphantly done, the agony of the criminal during the preparations must be terrible as compared with that of hang- og. It bece ® serious question if hue manity is not paying too dear « price for instantaneous demolition. The awe and mystery of death are it ed a thousand foid in anticipation of what this instrument] of subtle power may do as compared with either the bore of the bull or the chop of the ax. And yet to harness the ligniuing and bolt it through a human body is thought to be one of the advances of the ninetecuth century, The experiences in the Kemmler case, in spite of all the precautions taken, have showm j Many difficulties im the way of general adop- tion of the method. It is far from simple in ite application. it requires elaborate and careful preparation; it multiples machinery, which, without expert manipulation, is liable to fail im its working and bring about dis astrous results; it may be @ source of danger to the executionera and apece tators; it increases the expense of executions; but, worse than all, in the necessary prepara- tion of the victim there is crowded upon him im « few seconds an amount of horror and #us- pense which has no comparison with any other form of demolition, save those of being thrust into the muzzle of @ loaded cannon or ted tow dynamite bow When it is assumed that the ends of justice and humanity are reached by the contrivance in question, and when it must be admitted that even this method cannot be divested either of cruelty or barbarity, the way seems to be open for the abolition of capital punishment altogether, From physical, humanitarian and judicial standpoints the time ix ripe for its considera- tion. We venture to predict that public opin- ion will soon banish the death chair, as it has done the rope, and that imprisonment for life will be the only proper punishment meted to amurderer. This is, indeed, the only rational method which science, justice and religion cam consistently recommend. The death chair will yet be the altar from which this doctrine will be preached. — 0+ — A CROW INDIAN PICNIC. Some Realistic Representations of Hide ous Battle Scenes. From the Helena Journal. “I saw one of the grandest sights I ever saw in my life on the Fourth,” said Gen, Brisbin, “The Crow Indians celebrated the Fourth, and it is impossible to describe the scenes enacted, They went wild with delight and entered into the sport in earnest, “There were 250 of the Crows altogether, In the first place they made false faces of blue clay and pieces of canvas, rendering their ap- pearance perfectly frightful. It is truly won- derfu! the way they got up the faces. Some had long noses, others long chins, some had horns upon their heads, and, in fact, they were made up in every conceivable shape. They also decorated their persons in every imagin- able st, The ponies were covered with can- vas, gorgeously decorated with everything they could get hold of. The agent had ar- ranged for their amusement on that occasion, but the details were left for them to fill up. 1 sent a battery over at their request, and @ continued rour was kept np ail day. “They pertormed in a large circle and their chief delight was in sham battles. The scenes were 80 realistic that it was diflicult to realize that they were not in earnest. They dashed about the ring upon their ponies, fighting with wooden lances. Some of the Indians would pretend that they were killed or wounded, when they would be carried from the battle- field and attended by those selected for that purpose. The scalping scene was the great feature of the occasion. They had taken pieces of flannel and fastened upon the heads of those who were to be pretended victims, and when this was removed with the scalping knives the face was besmeared with red ink to give the appearance of bieeding wounds. It was a most hideous spectacle, and the ladies who bad gone down to wituess the event were compelled to leave, it was so shockingiy terrible. The Indians, however, enjoyed the sport hugely, and at night had a big war dance. “It was impossible to get them to return home to their farms for three days. The agent says that this will be the last one, as it excites the young bucks too much and recalls old times to the warriers, attracting them from their civ- ilized pursuits. It seems remarkable that none of the redskins were injured. Their horseman- ship 1s superb, and it is worth going thousands of miles to see the exhibitions of horsemanship given by that tribe. Altogether it was one of the grandest sights Lever saw and 1 never ex- pect to see its equal.” nibbecccnpaeenst Sir Charles Dilke’s Lost Ring. From the London Athenwum. The ring to which we referred lately as have ing been Jost by Sir Charles Dilke contains @ portrait—of the head only, with worn features and a melancholy expression—of Charles L, and is placed under an oval glass or crystal with beveled edges. It is believed to be one of the few memorial rings of the monarch in ques- tion and was missed not long after it was re- turned from the Stuart exhibition of last year, Any one who has knowledge of the relic may on communicating with the publisher of this journal, depend, should the ring be recovered, upon an adequate reward. Forcign papers are requested to repeat this statement and apply for custs of the block representing the ring. ‘, = Soa The Common Sense of the Court. From the Buffalo Courter. One of the oldest and best practitioners et the Erie county bar was arguing a motion ata neighboring county seat and was depending more upon bis own sound logic than upon au- thorities for success, At « critical juncture the judge interrupted the speaker with this inquiry: “Yes, I uuderstand, but where are your author: upon the subject?” “If your honor please,” retorted he brisk will ex~ plain the absence of authorities, with your permission, by telling a little story: A you man freshly admitted to practice bad prod in court in support of a motion a wealth of au- thorities.
