He is said to have had a controversy with his father about this Mon- day morning, when his father told him ne would rather see him in the grave than in the penitentiary. Grove came to town, pro- cured some strychnine and whisky, and on his way home took the poison. He fell from his horse ani was found by some workmen in a lane, suffering agony. Dr. F. B.

Correspondence of The Evening Star. AUSABLE LAKES, ADIRONDACK MOUNTAINS, August 18, 1804 Sitting by the lakeside this lovely summer day, looking upward thousands of feet to where the rugged peaks of Haystack and Resagenia and the Gothics pierce the clouds, I find myself wishing that all the tired mothers and the ‘sick children of our loved capital city could come to this restful spot and breathe the pure air of this moun- tain wilderness. It ts a beautiful place. We are camped on the banks of the upper Ausable lake, thirty miles from a railroad and four miles from any human habitation. The lake is the most picturesque in the Adirondacks, It ts two miles in length and half a mile wide. It reflects in ita clear waters a score of mountain peaks—a grand circle of giants, marked and seamed by“ mountain rivulets and slides. Here and there we see the white, glistening path of the avalanche. How silent, how restful, how beautiful! The rude laugh is hushed, every bitter and un- kind thought has vanished from our lives; we are face to face with nature and na- ture’s God. Evil finds nothing congenial in the bright skies and pure atmosphere of this mcuntain retreat. Our party consists of five Washingto- nians, three New Yorkers and one lady from New Orleans, namely: Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Bradley, Mrs. H. D. Barr, Miss I. W. Barr and Miss Florence M. Hazard of Washington; Mr. A. L, Halliday, Miss Kate A. Halliday Mr. A. R. Charlton of New York, and Miss Natalie H. Hamilton of New Orleans. We have three profes- sioral guides, who take entire charge of the camp and the boats, cook our meals and attend to all our wants. Leaving the beautiful Keene valley at 9 o'clock in the morning, we drove past St. Hubert’s Inn and entered the grounds of the Adirondack mountain reserve. This is an extensive tract of country, owned by a company of New York and Philadelphia capitalists, and incorporated under the laws of New York. The Ausable lakes and the mountains sur- rounding them are included in this reserve. The company issues permits to fish in the lakes under specific restrictions. Hunting is prohibited, and the ax of the lumberman is unheard in this wide domain. The drive through miles of primeval forest cannot be described in words. We felt that it was indeed a luxury to live! Reaching lower Ausable lake we were at once trans- ferred by our guides to the light Adiron- dack boats that awaited our coming. Soon we were gliding swiftly over the water of the lake, which is Swiss-like in its beauty. For two miles, almost in silence, our three canoes sailed southwardly side by side,with Mt. Colvin to the east and Resagonia or “Saw-teeth” to the west. Indian Face looks at us from the clouds, and is only equaled in strength and majesty by the great stone face that looks down on Profile lake in the Francenias of New Hampshire. Leaving the lower lake we have a charm- ing walk of one mile through the forest to the upper lake. No part of the journey was enjoyed more than this. Again we are com- fortably seated in the boats, and all too soon for those who love the water we are landed at Echo camp, In just ninety min- utes our three guides announced dinner. What a scampering! We could have eaten a bear if there had been nothing else avail- able. Our rustic dining room—how I wish the readers of The Star could see it! Cover- ed at the top and closed at one end and open at both sides and the other end. Rus- tie settees were comfortably placed about a rustic table. There were cnly two courses served, but ample justice was done. An- cther ride on the lake, then supper, and then the guides made the rousing camp fires that burned and sparkled all night, sending a cheery radiance through the camp and out over the lake. Around the blazing fire the guides and tourists nar- rated improbable bear and fish stories. At 11 o'clock the camp closed for the night with a service of song, the echoes of which went through and through the mountains, for this is Echo camp. And now you ask, “how do you sleep?” Imagine a loghouse or shed, covered on top and on three sides, with one side entire- ly open teward the campfire. On the fioot the guides have skillfully plied the uewly- cut “balsam fir” at least a foot deep. Pil- lows of the fir have been made by the la- dies of our party, who brought pillow cases for the purpose. Removing wraps and shoes, each tourist is furnished with two large blankets, and side by side, on the fragrant fir, we sleep the sleep of the just through the long hours of the silent night, while the harvest moon and the sentinel stars keep guard above our hustic couch. We have three camps, one for the ladies of the party, one for the men, and the third for the guides. The letter are awake at intervals, and keep the campfires brightly burning. 3 a Mountain Climbing. After breakfast, which is ready at 6 o'clock, we equip ourselves for a mountain climb. Shortly after 7 o’clock the buats are ready. For four miles we sail along the lake, and through the beautiful winding Ausable river, and an hour later we are lsnded at a potat in the woods eight miles distant from the summit of Mt. Marcy. This is the Mt. Washington of the Adiron- Gacks. The climb is quite diificult in many places, and altogether requires more cour- age, more energy, and more genuine stick- to-a-tive-ness, than any easiern mountain, except the ascent of Mt. Washington through Tuckerman’s ravine. At 1! c’clock we stopped at Camp Marcy (owned by our vides, for a light lunch, and returning two hours later our guide cooked us a dinner which was heartily enjoyed. Eighteen hun- dred feet below the summit we reached a spot that was full of interest to our party. On a level plateau Js a small pond, which is the source of the Ausable river. The water flows eastwardly down the mountain, *hrough the Ausable lakes, and thwardly fifty miles to the fa- mous Ausable chasm, then into Lake Cham- plain ani the St. Lawrence river. A hun- dred yards from the little p or the mcuntain is another little piece of water called Lake ‘“Tear-of-the-clouds,” from which the water flows wesiwardiy; sireams and brooks empty into it as it glides usi- cally down the mountain side, and we may follow it mile after mile until it broadens out into the beautiful Hudsen river and finally loees itself in the Atlantic. ‘The upper thousand feet of Mt. Mazcy is a solid rock, over which we scramble to the summit, reaching which we are amply re- paid for the toilsome journey, for spread out before us are billows of mountains, piled up almost to the sky. Mts. McIntyre, Dix, Whitefacz, the Giants and Haystack rear their huge summits so near us that it seems os if we might easily pass over the gulfs between cand stand on their rock- ribbed sides. A thousand other hills and mountain tops are around us, while far to the eastward are dimly seen the peaks of the Green mountains of Vermont and the White mountains of New Hampshire. Standing here amid these impressive sur- roundings, in absolute silence, with nothing above us but Gcd's blue sky, we realize that in fact, as well as in fancy, we are nearer heaven than when among the habi- tations of men. Charmed and gratified, we fain would linger here for hours, but this cannot be, for the beautiful camp on the lakeside awaits our return, and the great burning logs will send out to us a warm and cheering welcome. F. M. B. WAR ON THE PEERS, Rosebery’s Administration Not Ready to Take Up the Matter. James Henry Dalziel, radical, moved in the house of commons last evening that the house cf lords’ appropriation be reduced. He complained that the government had bot stated their attitude to the proposal to withdraw the power of veto from the up- per house, He was called to order by the speaker, who admonished him that he must adhere to the subject of the appropriation, After several radicals had spoken in favor of the motion, John Morley, chief secretary for Ireland, undertook, in Sir William Har- court’s absence, to reply for the govern- ment, The ministers were so fully sensible of the gravity and magnitude of the move- ment against the Jords, he said, that they refused to rais2 the issue on a trumpery question of ‘officials and salaries, During recess they would consider the problem carefully. Thomas Sexton, anti-Parnellite for North Kerry, said that the government had not risen to the emergency and did not seem disposed to treat earnestly the demands of the people and their representatives for a change in the hcuse of lords, Eventually Mr. Dalziel’s motion was re- jected by a vote of 76 to 45, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 92, 1894—TEN PAGES, GIVING UP GRADE CRossINGs. An Important" Improvement to Be Made i Pfitladelphia. Within six monfhs ‘the most dreaded and 2 dangerous grade in Philadelphia will be a thing past and four well- traveled thorough relieved of @ con- stant menace, These, beneficent results ac- crue from the depression of the tracks of the Reaiing railroad, so that its North Penn branch wilk-rug under Ontario street and Glenwood, Sedgley and Erie avenues. The work, dendminated the abolition of the North Penn ‘Junction grade crossing, was authorized by councils some time ago and will cost $300,000,.of which amount the city contributes $200,000 and the Pennsyl- vania railroad thé balance. Work has’ been started on a gigantic scale. Two monster steam shovels are cut- ting through masses of rock from the north and south toward the tracks of the Penn- sylvania railroad, which are to run over the Reading at a height of twenty-two feet. About 1,000 men are employed. Masses of rock are being blasted away and springs have been uncovered which ere detrimental to the progress desired. On the south the cut begins at Echo lane and has been run almost to the required depth as far as the Pennsylvania tracks. To the north the subway comes to the sur- face at Pike street and has been excavated to within about 300 feet of the tracks. The entire subway will be 4,000 feet in length and will have its greatest depth at Ontario street. To carry off the drainage within the ter- ritory benefited by the improvement a sewer six feet in diameter was built thirty feet below the surface, and has just reached completion. Along the entire subway on either side as retaining walls there will be constructed great walls of solid masonry six feet thick. its width will be sixty feet, or space enough for four tracks. For a time, however, but two tracks will be laid. On the line of the Reading there are many manufacturing establishments, but none of them have been disturbed in their freight facilities, For present service the Reading has con- structed a single-track trestleway about luv feet east of the old crossing. ———_+e-___ SECEDED FROM ROME. Formation of an American Catholic Chure The national convention of Polish Catho- lics, who wish to be independent of some of the requirements of the Church of Rome, began yesterday at Cleveland, Ojto, Bishop Villatte of Wisconsin of the old Catholic church presided. Delegates were present from Buffalo, Freeland, Pa.; Nanti- coke, Pa.; Jersey City, Baltimore, Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit, Omaha, Pittsburg, St. Louts, Bremond, Tex., and Winona, Wis. Bishop Viilatte in opening the convention urged that the Catholic religion be left in- tact at all hazards. A lively debate fol- lowing the launching of two motions by M. A. Crostowski of Cleveland remarking that he thovght it would be well to an- nource a platfcrm before proceeding fur- ther, he mcved that the delegates renounce their allegiarce to the pope of Rome for- ever. He also moved that they recognize ofi- cially Archbishop Villatte as the head of this new church. Rev. Mr. Kolaszewski op- posed the first motion, saying that its pass- age would result i priticism and injury to the society. Several warm speeches were made on both sideshiThe motion was lost, The second motion carried. A resolution was assed establishing the rame, American ;Catholic Church, for the society. The names of Polish National Church and Poltsbo Independent Church were suggested, butiwere thought to be too parrow. treme The Newspopers and Wellman. From the Chicago Herald. It is an unpleasint fact that newspapers exhibit greater uifindness or lack of ap- preciation than préceeds from any other source for newspaper men who seek dis- tinction in useful: or adventurous enter- prises outside of journalism. The case of Walter Wellman is before the public. He is a superior all-around news- paper man, a diligent student, a charming writer, possessing original ideas and pro- fessional enthusiasm, and of the highest personal respectability. He organized an expedition for arctic exploration. He went nearer to the pole than any of his predeces- sors, with a half a dozen exceptions. He did not go as far as he hoped would be pos- sible. The last arctic winter was unusually severe and tempestuous. Along the S0th and Sist parallels he found tie ice piled up in impassable, precipitous ridges, with no practicable opening to the northward and no indications of a more favorable coi! late: in the season, Under these adverse circumstances, the enterprise was aban- doned. ‘The adventurers were repeatedly in great distress and danger. They suffered much from the cold and from the loss of some of thelr suppiles. They have returned from the extreme nozth, but Mr. Wellman says that he shall repeat his experiment next year. As a rule, the newspapers have given Mr. Wellman no credit for the cour- age, the zeal in the cause of science, the mental resources, the industry and _perse- verance which he has displayed in this en- terprise. Othe: American arctic explorers bave received abundant and generous trib- utes from the press, Wellman accomplished as much in three months as the most of them accomplished in years. The malevo- lence which rewards him alone with witless pasquinades is detestabie. Wellman will not be driven out of the country. His news- paper work will be continued. He will make another “dash to the pole.” Proba- bly he will receive in a better spirit than his friends have received the ill-timed jests of the press. He will laugh at them, al- though they have incited laughter in no one else. However he fares with the press, he may look with confidence forward to the success which his arduous endeavors, his intelligent zeal and his splendid pluck will bring in the future, and which he will de- serve.
