AYER'S Sarsaparilis, wherever used, is always spoken of in termsof highest praise. WILLIAM SMALL, Fort Fairfield, Me.,says, in s letter recently received: “It gives me pleasure to speak from personal knowledge ‘ofthe wonderful cure, by the use of AYER'S Sarss- Parilla, of abed humor ins child eleven years old.

McKinley. Politicians in Indiana who mixed in the factional fight of the Harrison and anti- Harrison forces two years ago are prepar- ing to renew the struggle. All of those ele- ments which opposed the ex-President at that time have now combined,and the indica- tions are that they will support McKinley as against Harrison. Recent developments indicate that Gov. McKinley is very strong Politically in Indiana and especially in In- dianapolis. Gowdy of the state committee ground and may the best It is doubtful if Gen. Harrison has announced his intentions to even his most intimate friends. They all, including ex-Consul General New, deny that he has uttered a word on the subject, but the fact that he stands aloof without declaring his intentions is regarded by the politicians as proof of his candidacy. Maj. Rathbone Denies It. Major Rathbone, who is said to be at the head of an organization to boom Harrison for President, said yesterday in Cincinnati: “I believe that the story that there is an organization for the purpose of booming Mr. Harrison for President in 1896 comes from some person or persons who begin to think that Mr. Harrison will prove to be a formidable candidate should he conclude to let his name go before the convention next time. Their evident purpose is to kill him off. “I do not believe there is any booming organization in existence, and I am certain that I am not at the head of any such movement, or in any way connected with ‘\ecent events tend to bring Mr. Harri- son out in striking contrast to the present administration, and may be a cause for alarm on the part of those who may desire Some other candidate for the presidency.” 000 THE KEEPERS ARE SAFE. Ne Lives Lost in the Lower Cedar Point Light House. It has-been ascertained that no lives were lost by the burning of Lower Cedar Point Mghthouse, in the Potomac river, a narra- tive of which was given in yesterday's Star. Lightkeeper Benjamin Grimes was ashore at the time of the fire, and Assistant Keeper Field was alone when the fire broke out. He says that he can form no idea as to the origin of \the fire. He was in the lower part of the building when he became con- seious that the structure was burning, and | almost simultaneously he was made aware of the fact that the entire building was in flames. After taking in the state of affairs, he saw that he had no chance to make an investi- gation, and that it would be useless for him t attempt to extinguish the flames. He at once clambered down the side of the piling | i a rowboat moored at the side of the light- ADVERTISERS OF ALL CLASSES..| house and rowed ashore. IT COMPLETELY COVERS THE FIELD oF BUSINESS INTERESTS AND HUMAN IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND SURROUNDING COUNTRY. . 1N SHORT, ACTIVITIES iT MAY TRULY BE SAID THAT IT GOES INTO EVERY HOUSEHOLD AND 1S READ BY EVERYBODY WITHIN THOSE LIMITS. NO OTHER PAPER CAN TRUTHFULLY CLAIM A RECORD ANYTHING LIKE THIS. Yes afternoon Field visited the office of the Hexthouse board in this city, and made a report to Chief Clerk Johnson. Mr. Johnson made a number of inquiries of the assistant keeper, but his answers were simi- lar to the particulars in the foregoing state- ment, and he informed that official that he | had no knowledge as to the origin of the fire. The Mghthouse engineer and the light- house inspector stationed at Baltimore left jim ths sght-tender Maple for the purpose ot making an investigation in regard to the circumstances of the fire. They will submit @ report of the result of their investigation at Washington in a few days. ————-+ee— HIGH PRICES FOR WORK. The Seale at Homestead Above That Before the Strike, Mr. Frick Says. In regard to the teadjustment of wages at Homestead, Beaver Falls, Upper and Lower Union Pittsburg mille of the Car- negie Steel Company, limited, for the year 184, Mr. Frick, the chairman, said yester- day aternoon that the wages paid at Homestead to date were those offered the Amalgamated Association in June, 1892, be- fore the strike, the daily earnings there- under being higher per capita than those which prevailed before the strike. While the readjustment meant a redue- tion in tonnage rates, if business could be secured the radical improvements made in machinery and methods would enable the employes to earn much higher wages than would be made at amy other works in this | country. At the other mills the wages paid to date | were those prevailing in “union” mills in |that vicinity prior to the reduction made iby the Amalgamated Association tn 182, | and the new earnings would be higher than are now made in Amalgamated mills. At none of ~ —— of = aati Steel Company, limited, are the common laborers to work for less than twelve cents per hour, Where Senators a: Representatives Can Be Found. Vice President. Stevenson, A.

Everything was quiet at Wildwood, Fla., yesterday. The Tampa and Ocala Rifles ar- rived, but as there were no negroes to be found and all was quiet, they returned to their homes. While everything was quiet, there was some feeling of uneasiness and the white people were on the lookout that they might not be surprised should there be another at- tempt made on the town by the negroes. Isaiah Ryan is the only negro now known to have been killed. If any negro was wounded by the firing except Abe Lam- bright, who was a:rested, it has been kept very close from the whites. Six of the ne- groes who were leaders and took part in the riot have been arrested and taken by Sheriff I Chapman to Sumterville jail, Coleman Lam- bright, Jeff McCallister, Anderson Brown, Rufus Brown, Lon McCallister and Jim Figers. Jesse Lambright, the leader, is still at large. While there are a great many others implicated, the Lambrights, Adams, Gibbs and McCallister were the leaders and in- stigators, and laid the plans for the riot. Armed men are now in the surrounding county looking for Jesse Lambright and others. ‘The white people are thoroughly aroused and every effort will be made to bring the guilty parties to justice for their crime. It is thought that all danger is now past. On- ly two white men we-e hurt. Ira Smith, who was wounded on the night of the 25th, is resting easier, and the doctor thinks there is hope now of his recovery. Rube Caruth- ers was also wounded, but not seriously. 000 “sidelights on Home Rule.” The London Times published three col- umns yesterday under the caption, “Ameri- can Sidelights on Home Rule.” The argument of the writer is intended to rebut Mr. Gladstone's statements to the ef- fect that the United States Constitution is @ precedent for granting home rule to Ire- land and a justification of the home rule policy in general. The writer quotes liberal authors, notably De Tezequeville and John Stuart Mill, to prove the unsuitability of federalism to old world conditions. After citing De Terequeville’s remarks on the ty- ranny of the majority, the Times’ writer says: “In this connection it will hardly be contended that the majority of the popula- tion of Ireland are now more advanced than THE SOCIAL WORLD. Entertainments That Enliven the Holiday Season. THE PINK COAT BALL. Miss Cockrell’s Society. NEW YEAR RECEPTIONS. The Star will on Saturday publish a list of those receiving or not receiving on New Year day. Persons desiring to announce that they will or will not receive can do 80 without any charge by sending notices to The Star at any time prior to 9 o'clock Saturday morning. The notices should con- tain only the announcement whether there will or will not be a reception, the names and the addresses. Every notice must be properly authenticated to insure publica- don. Pink coat balls are not every-day af- fairs in this city and therefore anticipation of something quite out of the ordinary made the second ball of the Chevy Chase Hunt a success from the moment of its in- ception. Mr, William Hall Slack, who was the chairman of the committee of arrange- ments, was congratulated on all sides last night when the guests had assembled in the beautifully decorated old parlors at Wormley’s, where so many similar events have taken place. The decorations, par- taking largely of a holiday character, were in perfect keeping with the event. The front parlor, where Mrs. C. C. Glover wel- comed the guests for the club was set with tall palms massed in the corners and in the deep recess of the bay window with fine effect. Quantities of red drapery also enlivened the room. The three arches span- ning the length of the ball room were made into bowers of holly adding greatly to the effect of the woodland scene that covered the extreme end of the room. Here amid the realistic suyroundings of a dense wood, beyond a regular criss-cross Virginia fence @ road led to a steep bank and a rustic hollow where a fox was vainly seeking cover. Nearly all the members of the Hunt wore their pink coats, that looked none the worse for the wear yesterday afternoon when thelr wearers spent an hour or two in a stiff cross country ride. Many of the la- dies affected the glowing scarlet in their gowns or brightened up entirely white ones with scarlet waists or sashes. General dancing was indulged in till after the midnight supper was served and leis- urely enjoyed. At 2 o'clock or thereabouts the cotillion commenced, most led by Mr. Harry M. Earle. ‘The figures, and the favors for that mat- ter, were decidedly “horsey,” which made it all the merrier. There were aigrettes for the ladies, made of holly and mistletoe sprigs, miniature riding crops, fox tails ornaments, and for the men wooden ho! of the style small boys bestride for sma gallops, horse shoes, &c., all bedecked with scarlet and white ribbons. The Hunt ball was not over this morning until nearly 5 o'clock, Among those who enjoyed the occasion were: Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Mercer, Miss Lieber, Mr. William Lieber, Mrs. and Miss Phenix, Miss Stoughton, Mrs. Audenreid, Miss McMillan, Mr. and Mrs. Alan John- stone, Mrs. Holbrook Curtis, Miss Curtis, Mrs. and the Misses Brice, Mrs. Bourke Cockran, the Misses Pauncefote, Represen- tative, Mrs. and Miss Draper, Mrs. and Miss Belknap, Mrs. Clarence Edwards, Mrs. William Slack, Mrs. and Miss Hazeltine, Mrs. and Miss De Peyster, the Misses Wal- lach, Mrs. Julian James, Miss Stewart, Mr. and Mrs. G.
