Bolivia, has secured for the Latin-American de- partment of the exposition five examples of the ceremonial dresses of the Jibaros and Zaparros Indians. One of the Jibaros cos- tumes is reported to surpass any of the dresses of savage tribes yet discovered, in gorgeous beauty and lovely contrasts of colors. It con- sists of a feather skirt, a beautiful crown of feathers, with feather ear ornaments, and a singular back ornament of polished bird bones arranged in bands, monkey's teeth and metallic beetles’ wings, with armlets and leg ornaments formed of reticulated bands of biack sced and monkey's teeth, a recklace of tiger's teeth and M | three long strings of beautiful beetles’ wings suspended’ from the back of the head dress. The feathers are derived from three birds. The toucan, from which the greater part of the feathers of the skirt are ob- tained, las but two small spots of brightly colored feathers, so that each tuft of yellow feathers represents the life of the bird, just Hawaiian Islands represent the life of the sacred “too.” The most interesting ornament of all, however, is a desiccated human head worn suspended as a trophy from the neck and hanging down in front, which illustrates the wonderful skill of the Indians in intracting the skull and reducing the head in size, while pro- serving the form of the ears, nose and fizs, ‘The two Zaparros costumes are woven of human hair and are ornamented with geometri- cal designs in diss of a pearly bivalve shell, bird bones and monkey's teeth. All gar- Lieut. Safford bas also unearthed in an abori nal cemetery at Ancon seventeen mummies and S| many specimens of pottery, spindles, weaving utensils and a few pieces of ‘woolen and cotton cloth. A-subterranean chamber was discov- ered in this cemetery containing three mum- mnies, one evidently that of a woman, one of an infant and one of a child about ten years old. ‘The female mummy was on a raised seat of reeds, cushioned with a moss plant. In front lay several weaving utensils, and on each side ning against her shoulders were bundles of reeds wrapped with brightly dyed thread of various colors. ‘there were also several jars near by containing articles of food, and others which had evidently held liquids. His excellency, Gen di, governor of Panama, has given permission to the Latin- American department of the world’s Colum- biau exposition to remove from the old fortress at Puerto :Bello, on the Isthmus of Panama, some old Spanish cannon which date back very nearly to the time of Columbus. Gov. Aycardi has also agreed_to loan for ex- hibition ‘at Chicagoa marble slab bearing in bas reliefy a most beautiful representation of the landing of Columbus. ‘This piecé of mar- bie was presented to the city of Punama by the Empress Josephine nearly a hundred years ago. 2. THE MISSISSIPPI CAMPAIGN. Barksdale Still Fighting George Without Seeming Hope of Success, The senatorial fight in Mississippi between Senator George and E. Barksdale, the sub- treasury faction's candidate, wages hotter daily. ‘The action of the state democratic convention on July 15 in declaring the subtreasury scheme undemocratic has been generally accepted by conservative alliance men. ‘the ultra wing of the order is protesting vigorously against the convention's action. It is believed that the subtreasury faction leaders have sent out orders to have such resolutions passed whenever pos- sible. ss One of the new features of this campaign is that in almost every county the democratic Voters are expressing their choice at the ballot A Z* | Ju wes SOCIAL MATTERS. ‘Washingtonians at Summer, Resorts—Per- sonal Notes of Interest.

Josepha Cor- mela, wife of the accused, also is held on the charge of being an accessory. ‘The shooting occurred in front of Cormela’s fruit store, southeast corner of Pratt and How- ard streets, yesterday morning. Buchner, with two companions, went into the store shortly before the shooting and Buchner bought @ glass of lemonade and a glass of soda water for himself and one of his friends, while tue third man bought a cigar. Buchner gave the Italian 25 centy to pay for the lemonade and the soda, which amounted to 10 cents. Cormela only gave him 10 cents in change. Buchner called bis attention to the mistake and utked for 5 cents more. Cormela said that as the third man hed not paid for the cigar he would not give Buckner the 5 cents until the = | cigar had been settled for. ‘wo of the customers left the store, but Buchner remained inside still disputing with Cormela.

The contracting parties were a Mr. Devalt and Miss Annie Morse, and they lived in Montgomery county, midway between Takoma and Silver Springs. The groom, in anticipation of the happy event, had procured marriage license in this District. He engaged the services of a minister, and yesterday after- noon the ceremony was to be per- formed. Tho parties interested were all on hand promptly, and so was quite as large contingent of - friends. When the minister looked at the marriage license he announced that he could not per- form the ceremony in Maryland. The license, he said, was only good for a marriage in the District. This unexpected hitch in the ar- rangements seemed likely to prevent the wed- ding until the happy thought occurred to some one that they alge cross over the District line and then the ceremony could be per- formed. It was no sooner ited than acted upon, and a procession the wedding party was soon filing along the road to ‘the 7th street road headed by the min- ister. When the District “line was passed and the legal authority of the license was conferred on the minister, a halt was called, and there in the middle of the dusty road the bridal couple stood up before the minister and were soon made man and wi: ‘The ceremony was witnessed by a large crowd, which was increased by the people driving out, who stopped along the road attracted by the novel sight. After ihe ‘ceremony the groom mantally stepped up to the minister, and ssk- ing him his fee, paid him at once, th tarting 16 out on his married career on a cash basis. wedding party returned to the house, where the reception was held. AX OCEAN GROVE ARREST. Mr. Conley, Clerk inthe Assembly, Charged ‘With Begging on the Beach. Frederick Conley, a groceryman of Farming- dale, N. J., will institute suit this week a the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association for damages caused by his false arrest and im- prisonment, says an Asbury Park dispatch. Mr. Conley came here last evening to pass a few hours on the beach. He took a stage and landed at Ocean Grove. Before he hada chance to look at the rolling surf Policeman Pridbam caught him by the arm and said: “{ want you.” Mr. Conley isan Odd Fellow and sup- posed his arrest was » bogus one put upon him by the members of the order. He asked Prid- ham what charge bad been made against him, but the officer refused to tell him. Mr. Conley vas marched 0 police headquarters, where Chief of Police Patterson met him. idham charged Mr. Conley with begging on the beach. As soon as Chief Patterson found out who tl prisoner was he ordered his instant release from custody and Mr. Conley got his liberty. Mr. Conley is the clerk of the judiciary com- mittee of the New Jersey state house of assem- bly and is one of the best known democratic politicians of the lower portion of Monmouth county. Chief of Police Patterson has known him since his babyhood. Mr. Conley is indignant over his arrest. He says that he was told by Chief Patterson that two men had been begging on the beach and that he was arrested on suspicion of being one of the two beggars. Assemblyman Johnston will act as his lawyer in the suit. 02 TO GET SOMETHING FOR NOTHING. A Dishonest Bond Scheme Worked on the Greedy in Kansas, In southern Kansas a curious financial scheme has been worked. Bond companies have been organized in most of the towns and cities. The plan is to sell bond of 31,000for $10 down and a monthly assessment of 1.50 on each member. ‘As fast as there is money enough in the treasury the holders are paid in the order in which bonds are issued and they drop out. The scheme is to so rapidly add to the number of members that no one will pay more than 8400 or £500. Already a bond has been paid the holder, of which ho had paid in but $20. He received his full $1,000 and dropped out. o of the scheme are considered honest men and ris | rs prominent men in approached, but #0 far bave refused to accept the bonds, although they were offered free, evidentiy for advertising purposes. gadis elo ictal cel A Free Fight Among Italians and Poles.

Commander-in-Chief Veazey Thinks Wash- ington Can Have It. FAVORABLE REPORTS FROM ALL DIRECTIONS— ‘THE GREAT CROWDS EXPECTED AT DETROIT— PHILADELPHIA STILL UXDECIDED—THE Wo- ‘MAX'S RELIEF CORPS. Ssturday night there was an informal meet- ing at Willard’s of the general committee of citizens and tonight the executive committee in charge of the campaign to secure the @. A. BR encampment for this city im 1892 will meet, together with the members of the committee on invitation. All the reports received are of the most encouraging character. Today Mr. Fish, of the citizens’ committee, re- ceived the following letter from Col. Veazey, the commander-in-chief of the G. A. R.t R Vr, J 1891. R.A. Fism, Secretary, ee SY Dear Comrade—Your letter of July 21 is re- ceived. I shall be pleased to meet you and the committee at Detroit, as you suggest. My im- pression is you will have an easy job if you clearly show that Washington desires the next encampment and will be in a situation to carry it out as other cities have done. A great aid to this end would be to make a complete list of all the hotels and boarding houses of the city, with prices per day. The number will be so if a = se Sat it would rmeve all doubt @ ability of Washington to house every- ternally body. ours, Wea. Veazey, Commander-in-chief. P. 8.—So far as T have heard expression over the country it is decidedly in favor of Wash- ington. W. G. Vv. WASHINGTON'S CAPACITY. Following Col. Veazey's suggestion it is prob- able that the committee will take to Detroitas an evidence of Washington's capacity for hous- ing large crowds the data prepared under Col. Z. P. Wright's direction as chairman of the public comfort committee at the last inaugura- tion and at the time of the Knights Tem conclave. It is estimated that the hotels here will accommodate people, and then vast army of boarding houses,and private homes that will be thrown open will accommo- date four or five times as,many more, without into consideration public halls and other Places that can be transformed quickly into dormitories, ‘the Hotel Keepers’ Ansociation have already taken action guaranteeing that Prices will not be increased. PRILADELPHIA STILL UNDECIDED. Philndelphia has not yet decided to extend an invitation to the encampment. In Phila- delphia cvidently it ia thought Washington willbe the unly competitor for this honor that Philadelphia ‘need fear. The Philadelphia Press ot yesterday said: “Washington, D. C., and Lincoln, Neb., are the only cities that are in the field for the honor of entertaining the Grand Army men next year. But Lincoln is too small a place for such a big gathering, und there is no interest attached to it. It would be & boom for the place, but it would mean failure for the encampment. Detroit, it is evident al- ready, is too small for so bigan affair, and Lincoln is entirely out of mention. “Whether or not Philadelphia wants the en- campment next year is the question to be de- cided. If it does the delegation from the de- partment of Pennsylvania will work for it. “Several prominent posts have decided em- phatically in favor of it, while a few have de- cided against it. The idea of some comrades is that by having it elsewhere they can have more enjoyment than they can here. But it is held that the great macs of veterans have not the means to enable them to travel hundreds of miles and pay big hotel bills and railroad fares and the like expenses, but that they, too, would for once in their lives wish to attend a national encampment and enjoy the good times inci- dent to such a gathering. Others look upon it in the light of bringing 200.000 people here who will spend millions of dollars in the city, and that it would be beneficial in other xe- spects. This is a practical view of the subject.” THE CROWDS EXPECTED IX DETROIT. The problem of feoding the great crowd ex- pected in Detroit on the day of the parade, and which crowd, it is thought, would be much larger if the encampment were held in this city, is already attracting serious attention in De- troit. The Detroit Free Press says: “Ihe com- ing encampment may be justly ranked as the greatest event for many years in Detroit's an- nals. Crowds will throng the streets such as never thronged them before. Immense num- bers of visitors were assured weeks ago, but now that arate war has broken out thousands more will take advantage of the railronds’ ef- forte to cut each others throuts, and there is no prophesying where the thing will end. The liberality of our men of affairs and our house- holders—the former with their generous dona- tions of money and the latter for coming for- werd with ‘accommodations at reasonable prices—has, of course, the success of the encampment. Yes, it is safe to say its suc- cess is assured, notwithstanding the fact that thousands will have to content themselves with empty stomachs, especially on the day of the great parade, ecrotary Sterling of the ac- eemmodations committee admits that this problem of feeding the multitude 1s a grave one, and that it is becoming more 60 as the date of the great event draws near. He says his committee is fully alive to the seriousness of the situation and is d i power to prepare for it. iB to do but to make the best of the situation, and that is just what the committee is doing.’ All who live within a radius of seventy miles of the city should come prepared with such sub- stantials as are not affected by the summer sun's rays. They will find plenty of room tor itall. A word to the wise, fs.” TRE DETROIT PROGRAM.

One of the great attractions of Washington in the eye of the veteran is its nearness to the it battlefields of Virginia, Hand and onneyivania. It $8 expected that if the wae campment comes here low rates will be made by the railroad companies, so that a veteran can go to” from Chas. O. Scull, general passenger agent, as follows: “You can say to the G. A. K. committee that will sell excursion tickets from Washington to any battlefield reuched by the B. and O. RB. R. at rate of not more than one fare for the round trip. These tickets will be on sale during the ent period of the encam; ment of 1892, and Ihave no objection to the committee's printing ‘thie mation in any pamphlet Or taps which they, iey Gistribuie. ‘You can also say that during the gacampmient the B and 0, sverise speo- ‘excursions to some principal fields at leas rates.” 5 Maloney, #25; N.

John Stowe of Shelton, Conn., Says They Are as Nutritious as Clams, Aman with one of the most curious propen- sities lives in Shelton, Conn., according to the New York Heraid. He has acquired an appetite for live bull- frogs, and swallows them with the same ease he would swallow the most dainty morsel that ever was cooked, ‘The man’s name is John Stowe. Stowe has been a resident of Shelton only a few years, but it was not until recently that his appetite for live bullfrogs became known. One day within the week he Inid a wager that he could swallows frog alive, andwas at once taken up. On Wednesday of last week the test was made on a bet of €1, five parties being present. The fi®t one that was brought to him was too large to work down his throat and he se- lected one froma creek on the Harris farm small enough to go down. He placed the frog head first in his moath, shoved the remainder in with his fingers and in an instant the aru- hibious animai was out of sight and probably jumping around his stomach. The story of the feat at once spread, and within a few days there were number of doubting Thomases who, notwithstanding the undoubted integrity of the witnesses, did not believe that Stowe could swallow a live frog of their selection. Stowe was willing to try the thing again, and winking, so to speak, to his friend, took another bet aad appointed the day. DOWN WENT ANOTHER. On Monday the second frog was swallowed and the witnesses present were againastounded. Stowe is ready any time to swallow a frog on ® bet, and as the froge are numerous at present ‘he scoops in lots of dollars from workmen with whom he comes in contact. He says be docx not feel any bad effects, as they are dead shortly after landing in the stomach. The , he suys, is excelle eat much worse things every day. They are just as good as live oysters or live clams, or even live scallops. To physicians Stowe is puzzle. They cannot understand how the stomach will retain the foreign matter and are skeptical, They know that similar things have been taken into the stomach, but usuaily it is followed by violent pains and cramps, which continue until it is removed, but Stowe's stomach apparently retains these frogs and digests them, too,which is still more than astonishing. Stowe is mar- Tied, and is about forty years old. iis health is very good. ——_——_+e-—___ MISS WAKDEN’S ASSASSIN, ‘The Man Arrested in Alton Held for Iden- tification. At Hanover, N. H., the police received yes- terday a startling story regarding the murderer of Miss Christie Warden, which is claiming all their attention. A woman, whose home is in Springfield, Mass.. has written that her daughter was murdered a few years ago by a mar. who answers exactly Almy's description. The man made his escape and was never apprehended, and the mother desires to know whether Chris- tie Warden's slayer is the same man who mur- dered her owr child. From Laconia comes the news that a body of armed men had recaptured the man who was arrested at Alton yesterday and then released. They were so convinced that the man was Almy that they followed him into the mountains and heid him up at the muzzles of their rifles and shotguns. ‘They are now standing guard over their prisoner while one of their number went back to Laconia to telegraph for a Hanover po- liceman. eee Lost His Life in a Landslide. A cloud burst about three miles west of Idaho Springs, Col, on a mountain Saturday night and the water struck the track of the Colorado Central at a place called Fall River. The water carried with it an immense amount of sand, graveland great rocks. It struck a cabin on the hillside in which a man named Brooks was sleeping and wiped it out of existence.
