A Fine-Looking Body of Men, Who Are Good Soldiers. From the Chicago Record. ‘The standing army of Italy Is a source of pride to the nation. No finer-looking or bet- ter-dressed men can be found in Europe than the officers in the Italian army. As in most of the other nations of Europe, being a “brave soldier boy” is not a matter | of choice with the Italian, but a matter of | compulsion. When a young man is twenty years of age, he receives a notice to report himself at the | proper place for the purpose of drawing a! number. There are three classes of num- ; bers; those drawing numbers vf the first class—say from one to one hundred, for the Purpose of illustration—must serve three years; of the second class, say from one hundred to two hundred, eignteen months; while those of the third class, or from two undred to three hundred, are exempt from duty. An only son, the support of the fam- ily, comes under this latter class. Gentlemen’s sons are always officers, and where there are two or three in one fam. ily, qne must enter for life. The common soldiergan work his way up to a certain point, but no further, unless he pass through a military school, of which there are two in Italy—one in Modena and one at Pied- mont. After passing through the military school, he is eligible for any rank for which his attainments and courage may befit him. ‘The pay of the common soldier js ten centis- simi (two cents) a day, with clothing and rations. and soup with pork or bacon in it. soldier considers himseif in luck when he is permitted to act as valet to an officer, for then he gets “good things to eat.” The pay of an officer ts five francs a day and up- ward, but he must clothe himself. The soldiers drill and exercise a great deal, and in marching they usually march five hours at a stretch. In summer they ar‘se at 3 o'clock in the morning to drill. The bersagliere are companies of soldiers that are noted for their rapid walking. Trey have a peculiar step that enables them to get over the ground in a much quicker time than the ordinary man. broad-brimmed black hat covered with cock’s = which hang drooping to the shoul- er. The alpini are noted for their courage and endurance, and are usually chosen for dan. gerous excursions into mountainous dis- tricts. a short cloak flung over the shoulters and a hat with a single cock’s feather thrust through the crown. The carbinere are the most gaudily dress- ed of all the men in the king’s army. They are the ones most trusted with state secrets, and know at all times the king’s wherea- bouts. In times of peace the life of the soldier is monotonous enough, with its marching and @rilling and drilling and marching, but once | in a while a little tragedy occurs and then for a time the excitement is intense. Such an excitement occurred some time ago in| Naples, a little later in Florence, and new in Milan. The soldiers from Tuscany an the outlying mountainous districts are rude | and uncultivated as the untutored savage, and they are often made the butt of ridicule by their companions. For the most part they bear the taunts and jeers with indifference, but once in a while one a little jess patient than the rest becomes enraged, and in a fit of madness procures ‘a weapon and shoots right and left, regardless of friend or foe. In Naples and Florenze, { be- lieve, several lives were sacrificed, but in Milan it fs not quite so serious, hough an officer will have to go through life with only one arm as the result of the reckless shoot- ing of a maddened soldier. Absence from Italy does not free a man from his military duties. I have in mind a young man who went to America several years ago. When he reached the age of twenty he received notice from the Italan government to come back and draw his number; if he did not have money enough the government would pay his way. He paid no attention to the summons, when he received further notice to the effect that he was outlawed for thirty years, and even should he return to Italy ai the expiration of that time he would still have to serve his time in the army seo Mr. Hilborn Unseated. After the O'Neil contested election case was settled in the House yesterday by the seating of O'Neil, the rest of the program | was carried out to the extent of unseating Mr. Hilborn of California. This was done by a vote of 156 to 83, all the ‘republicans and the following democrats and populists voting for Hilborn: Messrs. Abbott of Tex- as, Bartlett of New York, Breckinridge of Arkansas, Coombs of New York, Crawford of North Carolina, Harris of Kansas, Lati- mer of South Carolina, McLaurin of South Carolina, Ryan of New York, Shell of South Carolina, ina; popu- Mess: a, Mec of Colorado. Before the vote was taken Mr. Hilborn a strong speech in his own behalf. When the vote was taken on the ting of his opponent, English, there was ro quorum voting, and the matter was still pending when the Howse adjourned. .

REPUBLICAN SUCCESSES DENVER, April 4.—Yesterday was ladies’ day at the town elections throughout the state, and flowers and smilax abounded. Pretty young women could be seen pinning | Violets or carnations on the coat lapels of the big bearded men with winning smiles that, said: “You will vote my ticket, won't you?” At the polls in Highlands, a Denver sub- urb, the women told the men plainly what | they thought of the taxation principles, and cast fifty per cent of the vote. Most of the candidates on the republican ticket, in- cluding Carrie G. West, as city clerk, were elected. At Greeley, Littleton, Fletcher, Globeville, El Rio, Barnum, Harman and other Den- ver suburbs, women were active, and their présence prevented disorderly scenes at the polls. Of 527 votes cast at Sterling, 181 were from women. Georgetown women did not turn out as expected. The latter consists of black bread | The} They wear a dis- | tinguishing hat with their uniform; it is a! ‘They wear the regulation breeches, | | which $100,000,000 was gold reserve. A big vote was polled at Leadville, where the women have for some time been study- ing up on the Australian ballot system. Returns from the greater part of the tate show a pretty general republican Sweep. Occasionally a slight populist ma- jority, but in very few places. Leadville republicans polled over 400 plu- rality and have more votes than populists and democrats combined. Pueblo goes republican by 500. At La Junta, where the issue was law and order versus the gamblers, the latter were burted,’ thanks to the ladies, out of sight. Returns as they come in only in- crease the republican majorities.

LOUIS, Mo., April 4.—Late returns show that Bowling Green, Clifton, Cuba and Milan were carried by the democrats and Sedalia and La Platta by the repub- leans, SPRINGFIELD, IL, April 4.—At Peoria the Peoria township republicans elected their entire ticket by majorities reaching | nearly 1,000 in some cases. OMAHA, Neb., April 4.—In South Omaha the entire democratic ticket was elected, the A. P, A. combine being beaten com- pletely. SPRINGFIELD, Il, April 4.—At Gales- burg the election was a landslide for the citizens or temperance ticket. Elgin republicans elected their ticket. Freeport: democrats held their own on town and city tickets. At Palmer there was much excitement when thirty women were refused admission to the voting booths. They wished to vote fora school trustee. The democratic judges refused to receive their ballots. The republican chairman procured a ballot box and ordered the republican clerk of the election to receive their votes on the out- side of the polling places, which he did, and recorded their ballots. The republicans say they will contest the election of school trustee. Danville, Bloomington, Joliet, Decatur, Champaign, Vandalia, Monticello, Mattoo: Streaton, Rockford and many other plac report sweeping republican victories. MILWAUKEE, Wis., April 4.—At Viro- qua the republicans cleaned up everything. In Fond du Lac the democrats elected their town candidate for mayor, but the republicans | secured most of the other offices, their ma- —" being greater than ever known be- fore. A dispatch from Marinet, Mich., says the entire republican ticket was elected there. oe ORY OF KOSSUTH. IN Forty Thousand Hungarians Pay Ap- propriate Tribute. NEW YORK, April 4—The memory of the late Louis Kossuth was today fittingly commemorated by almost 40,000 Hungar- ians,to whom the deceased patriot was dear, and regularly organized societies, embracing | about 40,000 men, turned out !n honor of their illustrious departed countryman. Promptly at 1 o'clock the parade began its march toward City Hall Park. As the arade passed the city hall, where was placed the Columbian liberty bell, it was tolled by the veterans of '48 and Sanford’s brigade ninety-two times, years which had crowned Kossuth’s life. a RHODE ISLAND’S NOVELTY. A Plurality Will Elect in Today's Gubernatorial Election, Spectal Dispatch to The Evening Star, PROVIDENCE, R. I, April 4.—People who have followed Rhode Island Politics | closely are intensely interested in today’s state election. For the first time in the history of the siate a plurality will elect. The old majority requirement has been discarded, and there is no hope of throwing the election into the legislature, The republicans are confident and are claiming the state by several thousand plurality, That they may lose the legisla- ture and thereby a republican successor to Senator Dixon they will not even admit as a remote possibility. On the other hand, Chairman Franklin P. Owen of the democratic state central com- mittee is firmly convinced that the state will give a plurality for the! David S. Baker y ir candidate, oe ie pave that the democrats will ro) e legislature, thot the state for governor. airy Gea “But this,” said Chairman Owen, “will not give ex-Gov.

In the matter of the appraisement of lands for the opening and extension of North Capitol street Justice Cox, holding the District court, today instructed the appraisers as to the manner in which they shculd proceed. The District Commissioners, by their at- torneys, Messrs. S. T. Thomas and A. B. Duvall, filed on February 16 a bel or in- formation setting forth the expediency of opening said street through the lands of Mrs. Annie L. Barbour and the Prospect Hill Cemetery Co. On this petition Messrs. A. F. Fox, Wm. B. Gurley and Oscevla C. Green were named as the appraisers as to damages, &c. Mr. H. Wise Garnet ap- peared for Mrs. Barbour and Mr. W. F. Mattingly for the cemetery, and at the hearing today the question as to how the appraisers were to proceed was discussed, the District claiming that in their findings the appraisers should take into considera- tion benefits as well as damages. The instructions granted by Judge Cox were as follow: The Ce 8 Instructions. “The court being of the opinion that the owners are entitled to the full value of the land to be taken, without deductions, the commissioners are directed that in making their appraisement of the land claimed by Annie E. Barbour and others and the cemetery the appraisers are to hear the evidence of the parties and appraise the said property at its present fair market yalue without reference to any claim of benefit or damages to remaining property, and in estimating the value they are to consider the prices pald for other property in the same vicinity. “The commissioners shall also make an alternative appraisement, in which, after ascertaining the value of the land, as be- fore directed, they shall ascertain whether the land of the parties adjacent to the proposed street will be damaged by the opening of said street, and will estimate the amount of said damage in each case. If, on the contrary, they are satisfied that the land will be benefited by being en- | hanced in value thereby, they shall find the value of such benefit in each case and de- duct it from the value of the land taken from the parties, respectively, for the said street. “In ‘respect of the property of the Pros- pect Hili cemetery, the commissioners are instructed that, in estimating the value of the land taken, they are to estimate its value for the use to which it is applied, viz., the purposes of said cemetery.’ A STARTLING DISCOVERY. Mann Finds Some Public Land in the District Limits. Public land has been discovered in the District of Columbia. Mary E. Mann, the settler, believing the land to be vacant and ‘subject to purchase from the government, has filed a petition in compliance with the terms of the statute, and Edward A. Bow- ers, assistant commissioner of the general land office, and Frank Flynt, chief of the surveying division, were today appointed judge of the generai lend office and exam- iner general, respectively, to carry out the | provisicns of a joint resolution of Congress, passed February 16, 1839, which directs the manner in which title to lands within the District of Columbia shall be passed from the United States. The necessity for the appointments arises from the application of Mary E. Mann, through her attorney, John Ridout. The land in question is described by the applicant to be a parcel of land, embracing 0.5863 acres, beginning at the stone at the most northerly corner of the Woodley Park property, now owned by the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation Society, thence in a line of the property of Miss Evans to the western line of Connecticut |avenue extended, west to the property of |the Episcopal Society and thence to the \place of beginning. Applicant states that she desires to ap- | propriate said land; that her application ts ,;made with the intent bona fide to secure | the title to sald land; that the application is rot made with the intent to harass or vex any person whatever, and that here- with she tenders payment of the amount required by law to be paid by her in order | to obtain title to this land, which she de- ‘sires to have patented as “Looker’s Dis- covery.” —_—>__ THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.

The Pennsylvania fish commisstoners ex- pect to have this year between 40,000,000 and | 50,000,000 pike-perch fry, and make un- nouncement of their readiness to receive ap- plications for this valuable food and game | fish to be distributed in suitable waters of the state during May. As this branch of fish cultural work is important and must be jdone rapidly, the hearty co-operation of anglers will be appreciated. Until a few |years ago the Susquehanna river and its tributaries were the only streams in this state In which the pike-perch were, and they became generally known in conse- quence as Susquehanna salmon, though they are also variously known as jack salmon and wall-eyed pike. They found their way into the Susquehanna soon after the war of 112, through a Jesuit priest and an English- man, who brought them from Seneca lake | to the Chemung river. When the fish com- mission was first created some difficulty was encountered in artificially hatching this species of fish, but a few years ago the problem was solved, and the output of fry lis now only limited by the supply of egys and the capacity of the hatcheries. Pike- perch are now comparatively jabundant, through the efforts of the commission, in the Delaware river from the Water Gap up- ward, and they are making their way down stream, a few having been caught last sum- mer as far south as Lambertville. They are also found in limited numbers in the Schuyl- kill river as far south as Norristown. ‘They will do well in almost any stream wh -re black bass thrive-streams like the Deia- ware and Schuylkill and such of their tribu- taries as are not the home of brook trout— also In deep, rocky lakes.
