The police raided another social elnb Satur- day night. “Convivial” was the title of the club and several of its members were in the club room playing a game of poker when the raid was made. The rooms of the club were over a dry goods store at No. 734 7th street northwest. Lieut. Amiss, with Detectives Raff, Carter and Block, Sergt. Boyle and several officers, went to the room about 10 o'clock and entered with a raiding warrant. Two games of poker were in operation and stacks of chips represented the amounts that the members of the club were playing for, while each player had his own little stack of “whites” and “reds.’ |The persons arrested were William Bishop, president: Charles Wagner, vice president: Charles E. Richards, secretary, and Samuel Altman, treasurer. ‘This club differed from some of the others in and boxes were | that there was a book case in the rooms, al- Gen. Ordway and his staif | thongh the library was not very extensive. The initiation fee is 25 ceuts, but theo one man whe said thet he was given a poker ip after he paid his initiation fee. As the charge against the defendants was per- mitting gaming on the premises under their control, bail could not be given and the defend- ants were detained until yesterday, when 9 special session of the Police Court as held i order that ne injustice might be done the de- | fendants. Lieut. Amiss appeared and swore out a war- rant in the ease and the defendants waived an examination. They were held in $300 bail for the grand re grand jury. A HIGHWAY But all the Thieves Got Was a Ten-Cent Piece. Saturday night two highwaymen operated on DBBERY. | 7th street southwest between B street north and B street south, but they only secured 10 an act that renders them | to a penitentiary sentence in case of capture. Mr. Robert P. Luckett, a plate printer, who resides at No. 620 Virginia avenue southwest, left the corner of Peunsylvania avenue and street a few minutes before midnight and started to walk Lome. ‘The street care were . but there were not many persons on the street after the corner of B strect north Passing along down 7th street between the y grounds and the $1 nian Park Bir. Luckett met no one until he reached a point several hundred feet from the corner. he was taken by ing blow on the head, wiuch was dealt h force that ke was knocked to the ground. Two men, one of whom was colored, stooped over him hen he made an outery one of them threatened to kill him if he re- peated it. Luckett thought the men might ili Lim and he asked them if it was money that they wanted. One of them replied in the affirmative, and, remembering where he had a 10-cert piece, he directed the t pocket. ‘Lhe negro put his hand into the pocket and got the 10 ise by receiving you've got?” the robber then d Mr. Luckett assaring them that he more money they ed him. took some papers from inix pocket, but as they only wanted moncy they did not take the papers awa Mr. Luckett was then released and the men disappeared. While he was picking up his hat and papers a young mun came slong and Luckett spoke to him, but the man did not stop. ‘The two highwaymen were not seen before they assaulted Mr. Luckett and were uo doubt hiding behind the large trees in the park. ‘The police were notitied of the case yester- day, but the culprits have not yet been appre- hended.

Mr. Gladstone Writes a Letter for the Guid- ance of His Followers, Mr. Gladstone has written a letter to Mr. Furness,+the liberal candidate for Har- tlepool. Mr. Gladstone says: “The Irish parliamentary party has vindicated iteelf by putting an end to the leadership of Mr. Par- nell and has left us prepared to pursue, as heretofore, our duty in denouncing unequal laws and the odious system of coercion adopted by the government as a permanent law. “The liberal gains of seats in the house of commons constantly repeated during the last four years meant much more than mere suc- cess. They meant that the party has declared that a union has for the first time been effected between the British and the Irish and shows the people aim to close the con- trove our opponents seck to in- dofiitely prolong ‘ne the cost of the national reputation and of im treasure and amid nextinguichable discard: The le of Ire- iand have put their trust in the people of Great Britain te deliver them from ‘bed laws made worse by a harsh, insulting administration. It rests on each constitueficy as the occasion offers for us to show our sister nation that her confidence is not rej in vain. The views of the liberals on general legisla~ tion were expressed at a recent meeting of the ederation, “They show that the party loug for | the time when the [rish question will be settled sud when fuller opportunity will be afforded to other questions. Still the time will come and we ought to apply a sample of our practi cal intentions by a bill clearing away obstacles hinderipg qualified voters from coming to register ‘and limiting on the register every single citizen to a single vote.” ———_—_+ee A Second Brighton Track. George Engeman of Brighton Beach has purchased Franklin Park, near Boston, for 25,000, and will fit it with all. the appointments of a perfect running track and hold two high-class meets there the coming season—one in the spring and one in the fall. It is also stated on excellent authority that an effort és to be made by influential gentlemen to procure legiskition in Maswachusetts similar to spool law in New York, logalizing betting under certain restrictions. “This last’ scheme is alxo said to contemplate the purchase of £22.00 worth of land in Brookline and the building of a regulation mile track, with bet- ting and stable attachments. pushin eee ae ‘The Thancmore in Port. ‘The steamship Thanemore, which sailed from Baltimore on November 26 for London with a cargo of cattle, has been towed into | Bahia, Brazil, by the British steamship Alli- ance. The Thanemore was bulletined at the maritime exchange aa inissing when she had been ont forty days. She was doubtless disa- bled in the cycione that swept the north Atlan- tic on December 1. — Possible Coming Diplomatic Changes. It is rumored in Paris that M. Wadding- ton, the French ambassador at London, is about to retire and that there is a possibility that M. Ribot, who now holds the portfolio of foreign uffaire, may succeed him. In that case another American lady, Mme. Kibot, a former hicago belle, will be withdrawn from Parisian fachionable society, where she has made an en- viable reputation by her intelligence and win- ning ways. Death of a French Senator, ‘The death in Paris of Count Louis Alex- | ander Fouchere de Cari, a member of the | French senate, is announced. He was born in Paris March 1, 1826.

Mr. HL Rider Haggard and his wife arrived in New York on Saturday. Mr. Haggard is on his way to Mexico where he intends to gather ma- terial for a novel about the Aztecs. The novel- int is tall, and has the typical English voice and accent, but none of the typical British stiffness. He has a prominent nose and wears a blonde umustache. His face is rather narrow and his forehead square cut but high. He wore a pair of gold rimmed eyeglasses attached to his yest by a gold chain. Mr. Haggard was greatly sur- prised to find the New York climate so much milder than the one he had left behind. Mrs. Haggard is much shorter than her husband. She has a pleasant English face and apparently believes with her whole heart that Mr. Haggard 4s Just about right As soon as he ‘had registered Mr. aoe leaned against a window jamb in the of his hot ‘to answer questions with great good humor.

I havo not matured any plans yet, but = is to treat of men of a civilized ora, probably about the time of the Spanish conquest.” “Have you any thoughts of visiting our own Indiane?’ “I cannot tell about that. Iam to be the guest of a friend in Mexico, and my future movements depend a great deal on his advice, We hope to return home by way of the West Indies if we can find a stcamer sailing from Mexico that way.” Mr. Haggard said he bad heard Gen. Lew Wailace’s romance “The Fair God” very highly spoken of, but he made it a point not to road Dooie that might travers his territory, lest un- consciously he should cite from them. He laughed uproariously when questioned as to his literary methods. Sometimes he wrote one way, he said, and sometimes another. He ible to follow the head which —his pen ran away with him—nor could he do literary work at haphazard. He needed quiet and the night environment or else his pen moved haltingly. Wnen he got started onanovel or story he worked as steadily as owsible. Mr. Haggard hopes to cover a good leal of ground and be home by the last of April. His wife will accompany him. —__—— Why Indians Do Not Farm. It seems that no amount of explaining will ever suppress that inevitable question of “Why do the Indians not farm?” says Mr. F. Reming- ton in Harper's Weckly. But, to treat the thing seriously, I will oxplain that a part of the Indian territory isa fine farming country and is inhab- ited by the remnants of the eastern tribes, who do farm to some extent. The Cheyenncs, Comanches, Kiowas and Arapahocs live west of the rain belt, and it is exceptionai when a corn crop can be raised once in four years. That seems to be renson enough to deter white men from farming thers, and it ought to at least account for the Indians’ lack of success. Those parts of Kansas and Texas lying north and south of these reservations are not regarded | as farming countrics, On certain parts of the Sioux reserve crops might be raised, but attained ithout irrigation. The northern Cheyennes could not farm for the same rea- son, though the Crows are more fortunately situated, as the broad bottoms of the L Big Horn can be irrigated uta trifling expense. A curio: fact migit be mentioned in con- firmation of all this, which is that there ure less white people ¢} SANK IN THE FIRTH OF FORTH. Two Scotch Stcamers Collide and Thirteen Persons Drown. The steamer Britannia, from Leith, came into collision with the steamer Bear, from Grangemouth, in the Firth of Forth, Scotland, at an early hour yesterday morning. The Bear sank immediately, her crew having no time to lsunch s boat or make any effort whatever to save themselves. Of the fourteen men on board the Bear twelve went down with the veesel. The two others were rescued by a boat from the Britannia. After the collision the Britannia, which was badly damaged, trans- ferred her forty-five passengers ty the steamer ‘Thames and was then taken in tow by that vessel, the two steamers proceeding slowly in the direction of Leith. They had not far, however, before the hawser the Vossel was snapped asunder, and before another line could be carried to the ‘vessel she gave a terrific plunge and sank beneath the waves. Fortunately, the crow had put on life belts after the collision with the Bear, and all, with the exception of the chief engincer, man- sged to keep afloat until they were picked up by boats from the steamer Thames. chief engineer went down with the vessel, and noth- ing was seen of him again. eee eee ELAINE GOODALE’S CHOICE, Petter areca She Will Marry Charles Alexander East- man, a Highly Educated Sioux. Miss Elaine Goodale, one of the Goodale sisters, the poctesses of the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts, will, itis said, be married to Dr. Charles A. Eastman, an almost full-blooded Sioux, whose father was chief of a Dakota tribe and whose mother was a half Indian. Dr. Eastman took his degree from the Harvard Medical School last summer and a few years ago got his degree from Dartmouth College. He is a cultivated man, both physically and intellectually, and one of the brightest Indians who has ever come over to civilization. Miss Goodale is scarcely out of her teens, beautifal, finely educated, intellectual, full of life and a warm lover of nature. She left Gen. Arm- strong’s school, where she had been teaching negroes and Indians for three years, to be a teacher at o day school among the Sioux at the Lower Brule agency, Dakota. Young Eastinan himself is a very intcrestin, person. In college he was « thoughtfu student and a capital man on the campus at foot ball as well. a le came east with a purpose. It was very much one with Miss Gootlale's idea to amelion. ate the condition of his tribe—that tribe “that has a more piteous record” than all the Persecuted tribes of Indians, as Helen Hunt taid in her book. He worked hard, patiently, and after settling the problem to his own solu- tion, he went back last summer to his home. His name in the Dakota e wos Tawa Kanhdiota, which being interpreted is “Many Lightnings.” His mother was a woman of so much personal beauty that she was known in the tribe as the “demi-goddess.” His mother died in giving him birth. He is slender and sinewy and about five feet ten incbes in height, He is very crect, supple, proud of bearing und easy in his deportment. He has jet black hair, worn in pompadour style, a low, wide forehead, rather high cheek bones and alert red blood, ‘which shows vividly through the brown skin in moments of excite- ment. Charles Alexander is the full name he has chosen for himsclf._He was the orator of his class last summer and was graduated with credit from Dartmouth. It was Eastman, by the way, who bas the distinction of being the only American who ever discountenanced Matthew Arnold. When Arnold was. visi Dartmouth he expressed a desire to wee a real live Indinn, A quiet reception was accordingly got upin which the poet and the Sioux were the chief cclebritics. Young Eastman bore himself as proudly and _composedly as any brave of his" ancestors. But Mr. Arnold was completely overcome by his presence, dropped his eyeglass and couldn't regain his composure for a moment. AUCTION SALES. THIS EVENING. JRATCLIFFE, DARE & CO.

Ever since the eattlemen have been driven out of the Cherokee strip they have been try- ing to find some place fora range that would not be too far from the markets to be avail- able. Such a range has been found, and a syn- dicate of mortgage companies in Kansas City and eartern cities has been formed for the pur- pose of consolidating the western part of Kan- sas into one vast cattle range. ‘The lands in thet part of the state have been mortgaged to their full extent by the settlers and the con- tinued droughts have caused such en exodus from there that the wortgege companies are finding themselves with thousunda of acres on their hands which they can do nothing with in | the way of selling or renting. It is understood that foreclosure exiles of mortgaged lands amounting to over a million acres have been ordered in the western tier of counties, and as all this land lies together it is to be rented to the cattlemen or else the financial com will use the range themselves and form a cattle syndicate. | A eee ‘The New Hampshire Senatorship. ‘Tho latest sensation in the Senatorship con- tost in New Hampshire is the report that ex- Gov.
