Ex-Senator Charles B. Farwell of Chicago received the following telegram on Tuesday from the government experts with the rain balloons: “Mipiaxp, Tex., August 10. “The Hon. C. B. Fanws11, Chicago: “Preliminary. Fired some explosives yoster- day afternoon. Raining hard today.” This is the first fruit of the Senator's rain- compelling theory. It is said that theory oc- eupiesa place in Mr. Farwell’s affections sec- ond only to republican success in Hlinois. Anyhow he was pleased. “That looks like business,” he said. “That message is allI know about it. He says, you sec, ‘Fired some explosives yesterday after- noon. Raining hard today.’ Brief, but it covers the case. You will see also that the ex- plosives were fired merely periment before the real te: “Ihave had confidence along. Naturally, I think none the less of it because it is my own. I worked it out and got the appropriation through, aud Mr. Dyren- forth is catrying on the experiments as my appointee. “You can imagine what it will mein to tho west if plenty of rain can be a “What about the cost of it? Isn't it going to be 0 expensive a process that its usefulness will be greatly limited?” “Well,” replied Mr. Farwell, “the first ex- riment will, of course, be tather expensive. ut as soon as the efficacy of the process in dem- ‘here will provements, and cheaper methods will be found. Oh. it will be used if it is a success.” “What does it cost now to load a balloon, send it up and fire it off?” “Can't say. We expect to expend the entire appropriution of $9,000 on these first experi- ments. After the practicability of it is demo strated we can begin figuring on the cost each explosion.” in a preliminary ex- in that theory Mr. Farwell took up the theory of producing rain by blasting the upper atmosphere with charges of high explosives sent up in balloons sometime before the expiration of his senator- ial term. SUED BY HIS TYPEWRITER. Judgment for Services as Copyist Obtained Against Ex-Congressman Glover. Ex-Congressman John M. Glover of Bt Louis is in trouble with his typewriter. She has charged him with having betrayed ber confidence to the extent of #600 worth of type- writing. And what is more, she has obtained a judgment for the full amount of her claim and cost, ‘The plaintiff is Miss Zerlina Rosen- field, who, under the firm name of Z. & L. Rosenfield, the latter being her younger sister, operates five offices in New York city. In June, 1890, Miss Rosenfield read that John ‘M. Glover would receive bids on a large con- tract. She bid and first got a contract for 5,000,000 words, and then for all the work, amounting to 15,000,000 words. After Congressman Glover, who was & mem= ber of the Fiftieth Congress from the ninth Missouri district, failed of re-election to the Fifty-first Congress he weat to New York city and opened a law office. One of Mr. Glover's undertaking here was the getting up of “The Glover Index.” For a whole year Miss Rosenteld thes been writing his fad 2 out by the . Miss Rosenticld came from St. Louis and this may have had some- thing to do with her getting the work. At any rate Glover began to send over afew baskets of copy every few days and she would soon | after send him a like number of hany of | type-written stuff. When be got a fnll-grown dry goods box full he would nail it up and ship it to his place at Tuxedo. At intervals Mr. Glover would be absent for weeks at a time, and when he returned he would eay he had nomoney. This excuse was not legal tender to the young girls employed by Miss Rosenfield, and she delicately so hinted. ‘The hint made Mr. Glover angry and he finally told her to finish the work and he would pay her inalump sum. Acting on this order the work was finished about the Ist of June. It yas delivered, but Mr. Glover did not pay for i “Miss Rosenfield was yery anxious to get her mone; said @ friend of Miss Rosenfield, “but she disliked to ask for it until it became a ne- cessity.

Although, as stated in the Baltimore dispateh to Tue Sran yesterday, Mr. Frank Brown's candidacy was not indorsed by the Maryland Farmers’ Alliance, yet it was given favorable attention. Aside from the platform the prom- inent foature of the session was the adoption of the following resolution by a large majority “Whereas the Hon. Frank Brown of Carroll county announced through the press of the state in his canvass for governor that he ap- Pealed to the farmers of Maryland for their support, and in public speech further de- clared his sentiments as favoring and uphold- ing the agricultural interests of the state: “Therefore the Farmers’ Alliance of the state of Maryland desire to recommend his candidacy to ‘the favorable consideration of the farmers of the state.” The resolution was offered in a somewhat stronger form by Col. Enoch Noyes of Cecil county, but was modified to the above form by the committee on resolutions. Consider- abie discussion was provoked by the resolution, but most of the delegates came iuto line and voted in the affirmative. The convention was reminded of the only ruffle in the smoothness of the first day's pro- ceedings, cansed by the contention over the Anne Arundel county delegation. It was re- solved that “it is the sense of the Maryland state alliance that the Odenton sub-nliianee submit to reorganization, Polk be requested to send a to Odenton for that purpose. Manager Dunning of the District of Co- lumbia Alliance Mutual Aid Association ex- plained the insurance features of the associ tion, and a committee was appointed to ex- amine into the question and report upon the | advisability of introducing it in the state of Maryland. The committee includes Wm. Col- ling, F. H. Jones and Richard T. Hammett. It is customary at each annual convention of the state alliance to appoint a committee to ex- amine and report upon the condition of the Maryland Agricultural College and the ment station located upon the adjoini grounds.

Neither did it. Carvey and Snteliffe and McGill und Boyle were in the points. Carsey was hit hard and often, and the game was won cn his delivery. He gave seven men first on halls and was hil safely twelve times. MeGill’s work was some- what better. though he gave two more men first and w: ite off at first. ‘The accounts give Alvord the credit for the best field play. which was better on the part of the Statesmen than onthe side of the home players. This man, it is said, covered an enormous amonnt of ground,’ taking what seemed to be safe hits and fooling every one with his long reaches. THE RENS. Washington made three runs in the first in- ning. Murphy went to first on balls and Dowd flied out. Lawrence Patrick wenton tothird when Suteliffe sacrificed. and after MeGuire had gone to first on four balis Boyle tried to ndii Murphy with a throw to third and the run was scored on the wild toss. Then McCauley went down the lane on balls and he and McGuire scored when Hatfield put a safe one in center. ‘The Browns cut down the lead by one run in the third. Comiskey waited for his base and stole another, going home on a safe hit by Boyle and a wild pitch. ST. LOUIS TO THE FRONT. The fourth saw St. Louis forge to the front with a lead of one run, making three in a | bunch. McCarthy went to first on balls and | O'Neill bit for abase. Then next two men the went out, Lyons on a fly to McCauley and Stivetts on strikes, but the two men on’ bases stole simultaneously and scored when Com key hit to center fora base. Thecaptain ts lied on Boyle's safe one and the side was r tired by McCarthy's striking out. ‘The Statesmen came near scoring in their half and thus tieing the tally, Alvord hitting to left for two beses, with noone out, and re- maining there while three men were retired. The lead of the Browns was increased by one more in the sixth and again in the seventh, and still one more in the eighth, so that when Washington went to the bat in the eighth it hada disadvantage of four runs. [t went at the work of reducing this lead with a vim. McCauley went down on bails and to third when Hatfield hit to right for a couple of bags. Alvord was out ona fly when Foreinan hit to right for a base and two runs scored. Carsey’s grounder did not _get by Lyons and Foreman was lucky to reach second. Murphy's ball was quite safe and Foreman went on to third. Dowd BEECHAM'S PILLS ACT LIKE MAGIC ON A WEAK STO 25 Cents a Box. OF ALL DRUCCISTS.

The league has usked us to give up Boston and accept Pitteburg and when we refused to do that they wanted us to resume the 50-cent rate in Boston. ‘This also mot with ‘opposition from the association people. Ye: there is some truth in the rumors regarding an association club in Brooklyn, for there are se¥- eral men there ready to back it. The disband- ment of the Western Association, which will soon follow, will leave the National League alone against us.” While Von der Abe would not ackuowledge it he is undoubtedly Lere in the interest of a proposition from the league looking to the formation of a new national agreement.

Maryland is to have a naval militia, Com- mander Joseph B. Seth of the oyster navy has obtained from the state board of public works permission to uniform the 150 men composing the crows of the state vessels. He is now engaged in teaching the manual of arms. He says they know how to handle the boats, having had sufficient experience during the oyster war on the Chesapeake. It is the intention of the commander to add to the strength of his force from time to time if he can obtain the necessary assistance from the legislature. ‘There are now in the navy two steamers, five schoon and eight sloops. all provided with Lowitzers and small guns. These will be di- vided into three squadrons. One squadron Will be stationed at Annapolis, a second at Cambridge and the third at Crisfield, aud will be commanded respectively by Capts. Lake, Howard and Turner. The first exhibition drill isannounced to take place at Annapolis on Angust 25, 26 aud 27. All the state officials will be invited and the com- mander expects to make a showing that will secure him the co-operation of the governor and legislature. ———— Another Gladstonian Victory.

The fight was an unusually bitter and exciting one. he constituency has been un- interruptedly liberal since 1841. Sir Charles Forster, the late pépular member, had sat since 1852.

Gov. Page of Vermont has issued a proclama- tion for a special sestion of the legislature to convene Tuesday, first cause for ealling it is to take action in regard to di- rect tax money in the state. Gov. Page says there appears to be a strong public sentiment ing for further legislation upon the subject the Columbian exposition and_ gives the question prominence in the call. Five thou- sand dollars only was appropriated last fall, Lut this sum will undoubtedly be handsomely increased by appropriation when the legisla- tare convenes. “It is now believed that Gov. Page will make known his choice of a successor to Senator Edmunds before the extra session meets, Asfar as can be ascertained the state is substantially a umit in support of Secretary Proctor for the position. ——— Webster Held by the Coroner's Jury. ‘The coroner's jury in the case of C.

A-special from Midlind, Tex., to the Dallas Neves says that the rainfall expedition from the United States Department of Agriculture reached Midland on Wednesday and have so far made two successful experiments. The | News reporter interviewed one of the party to- day, who suid: ‘Saturday and Monday last part of the rain- making apparatus only was set up and the preliminary trial made simply to test the effi- ciency of the special blasting powder, which is being mannfactured at the grounds from ma- terial brought with us. Several bomls were exploded by means of electrical dynamos. Although this powder is very powerfal we wero by no means confident that the explosion would have any practical effect upon the me- teorological conditions. However, about ten hours after the explosion clouds gathered and a heavy rain fell, extending many miles. ‘We do not think the explosion actually pro- duced the storm, as they were not ona large enough seale, but they were undoubtediy in- | strumental in precipitating the moisture which the clouds brought to that locality and greatly | inereased the intensity of the storm and the quantity of the rainfall, which was greatest in | the immediate vicinity’ in the plice of opera- | tion. We will continue cautiously to make | tests as to the density of the atmosphere in this particular locality, so that our bombs may be adapted to ineet every possible condition, and when we have sufficiently satistied ourselves | upon these similar points the decisive experi- | ment will be made.

The article is the result of facts aud statements obtained from | about two hundred labor employers and every | southern state is represented. These employers | give work to nearly 7,500 colored persous. The | highest wages reported as paid to a skilicd negro worker are 33 per day, lowest $1.10, and average wages $1.75, and 978 skilled negro | laborers are reported as under employment. ‘The highest wages reported as paid to the 6,361 unskilled negro laborers w lowest 60 cents, and the aye or day.

Another question “Do you intend to continue the employment of r?” and 109 employing 6,670 answer twoeach employing one say no” and sixteen hiring 411 are in doubt. ‘The most interesting part of the article re- lates to the effect which education has had on | the younger generation of the colored race as | to their eiticiency as laborers, and also as to what effect education has had on the race gen- erally as laboring men. ‘To these questions 1 replies were received and every southern sta is repress nployers, h 2 colored y the -eduention younger generation has recvived has been ben- ficial to them as laborers. and that education las been of aid to the laborers of the race in | general; thirteen, employing 392, are in doubt | on the subject, and ninety-six, who employ | 3,820, nay that such education as the younger of the colored race have received has not been of benefit to them as laborers, and that, gen- erally speaking, it detracts from a negro’s effi- ciency as a laborer to educate him. ss sare veieanirmats ‘New York Democratic Convention, ‘The democratic state committee met yester- day morning at the Hoffman House in New York.

SENATOR STANFORD'S SCHEME, A Scheme for Wholesale Colored Coloniza- tion in California. Senator Leland Stanford is giving aid and encouragement to thousands of soxtbern negroes who are establishing large colonies in California. It is expected that 50,000 negroes will become residents of the state within the next twelve months. In view of these facts the politicians are alarmed, as the colonists are quite likely to bewilder the shrewdest politicai manager on the coast. The Rey. R. C. 0. Ben- jamin, prominent and wealthy colored man of San Francisco, is at the head of the move- ment. Ina recent interview he said: “Our object ir bringing the negroes to Cali- fornia is to supplant the Chinese, ‘The celes- tials are not citizens or voters and the colored people are both. We have already signed con- tracts in our possession which will guaranteg employment to ail the people we bring here. We have secured 50,009 acres of excellent land situated in Fresno and Shasta counties and all of it may be érrigated, will provide homes for an immense number of colonists. Our people are now arriving from the southern, states at the rate of five familiesa week. Within the next twelve months I expect that] will have situated in California 8,009 families. See how rapidly it will increase the population. Forty thousand more industrioxs people. “It has bee. arranged,” continued the enter- prising young colonist, “that the people will be given employment when they get here. and they will be provided with small tracts of land which they will be given from five to eigh years’ time to pay for, anda portion of the payments can be made by working for the own- . ‘They will raise vines and fruit trees prin- cipally. The managers of the Southern Pacitie | railroad have agreed to give us the very lowest rates on which to travel, avoiding, of course, the violation 'y_of the interstate com- laws. tor Leland Stanford is favor- impressed with our scheme, and has lent us inueh encouragement. ‘The colonists will come principally from Alrbama, Texas and North and South Carolina.” Mr. Benjamin leaves Sin Franciseo for the south in afew days to arrange to send outa largenumber of colored people. Large num- bers are sacrificing their homes to secure money to pay their way. In the meanwhile lending democratic news- papers are suking loud protest agaiust this in- tux of colored colonists. — WHAT SUPERINTENDENT OWEN BAYS. No Friction Wi ith Secretary Foster Over the idringhaus Case. Gen. Owen, the suverintendent of immigra- tion, was in Philadelphia the other day and was interviewed relative to the Neid- ringhaas decision. He said there was no friction in the department. ‘The assistant secretary and himself took one view, but as their position was in advance of the rules of the department, the Secretary very justly took another position. ‘The law govern- ing the question of the importation of labor under contract permits the landing of skilled | laborers, providing that it is proved that their importation here is for the purpose of establish ing a new industry. Mr. Neidringhaus made effort to secure skilled tin-plate workers in this country, but failed. He then asked if he could import skilled workmen. The assistant secretary and Gen. Owen took the ground that as the skilled workmen were not to be had here he could import them, and in this they ran counter to the rules of the department, anticipating a fact. According to the rule, Mr. Neidringhaus wall have to import the ‘men under the clause hem to enter to es tablish a new industry. ‘Then the question will come up as to whether they are needed for the industry and the department will render de- cision on the evidence induced. ae GAINS ARE CLAIMED, ‘The People’s Party in Kansas Said to Be Growing. ‘The state central committee of the peo- ple’s party met in Topeka, Kan., én Tues- day with the chairmen of about thirty county committees and discussed ways and means for conducting the campaign for capnty officers in localities where hard work will be necessary to overcome republican majorities. Levi Dumbould, chairman of the committee, after the meeting, which way secret, had ad- journed, said: “I have carefully prepared re- ports from every county of the state which were made up by canvassers of the alliance and a conservative estimate of the party's strength based upon them shows that we have made a net gain of 20 per cent since election last No- vember. Most of this comes from the cities and towns, although we have held ali of our forces in the country and made some gains.” ———_rer_—_— WILL BE STRUNG UP 1F CAUGHT.

An exciting chase took place at Avon by the Sea, N.J., the other day between Detective Harry L. Maddox of Asbury Park and Miss lien, a pretty,fifteen-year-old girl, who was making a very determined break for liberty. Edith is the daughter of Mrs. Matilda Sellen of New York. For some time past she has been entirely too gay for her mother. Thinking that the quiet surroundings of Ocean Grove would | have & good effect upon he: daughter, Mra. | Selien sent her there last week to spend the re- mainder of the summer with some friends ina cosy cottage on Pilgrim's Pathway. On Saturday afternoon Miss Edith disap- peared very s at once telegraphed for. The serv tective Maddox was secured, and late night he snececded in tracing the Ocean Grove to Avon-by-the-Sea, where be found she had secured a position as a waitress in the Swanson House. Highly elated at his quick success, Detecti' Maddox went back to Ocean Grove and told next morning the detective and Mrs. Sellen went to Avon and started to go to the Swanson House. Edith, however, saw her mother and the detective as they entered the front door. She went ont of the rear door and started across the fields like a deer. The detective caught sight of the fleeing girl through a win- dow and at once started in pursuit. ‘Maddox is a long. lank man and basa record asa sprinter. When Edith found her pursuer gaining upon her she began to scream and turned toward Shark river. Maddox, divining | caught her just as she was about to plunge into the water. Edith cried out wildly. Finding that her | frantic efforts to escape were of no avail she begged piteously 10 be allowed to go. ‘Mrs. Sellen soon came up took charge of the girl. They boarded the next tram for | Ocean Grove. ‘Mrs. Sellen said she would at once place her daughter in the House of the Good Shepherd and the two.went to New York together. soe IT CAUSED A SENSATION. Punishing a Police Agent for Maltreating a Hebrew. A dispatch from Odessa says that @ sensa- tion las been caused there by the punish- ment of a police agent named Kaminski for the brutal maltreatment of » He- brew. It is the first time that punishment has been inflicted on a police officer for maltreat- ment of a Hebrew, however severe. In this case a Hebrew named Kaplan, a small trades- man, was walking quietly on the strect.Ka- minski was offended because — Kaplan did not salute him, and he seized the un- lfortunate Hebrew and kicked and cuffed him until he was senseless. The matter coming to the knowledge of the chief of the police dis- trict, he prosecuted Kaminski, who hax been Gismissed from the service and ordered to live in the Crimea for three years. Although orders have been repeatedly issued to the effect thut Hebrews must be protected from_ personal abuse, this is the first time that any important oflicial has seen fit to carry them into effect. The fact appears to be that Kaplan, like thou- sands of other Hebrews, was paying money to the chief for protection and the chief wished to show that his word amounted to something.
