Seoeee + SPOOFS ECO OSE 0F009000 POPULISTS TO START COLONIES. Co-Operative Scheme to Be Tested Near Washington, A Topeka, Kan., special to the New York World says: Mrs. Anna L. Diggs, the noted populist-suffrage advocate, is so discourag- ed by the populist defeat in Kansas and elsewhere that she says she will henceforth devote herself to a projected co-operative colony on the banks of the Potomac river, forty miles below Washington. Mrs. Diggs says the colony will purchase 700 acres of choice wooded land, an option for part of which has already been obtain- ed. She will not tell the exact location for fear speculators would secure options and force up prices. She says the lands are very rich and command a splendid view of the river. Water power is available. Mrs. Diggs is not willing to give the names of all interested, but says that Ham- lin Garland of Boston, Judge Frank Doster and severai well-known socialist writers in Poston are to be charter members. Mrs. Diggs says that about forty families will take possession next spring and begin the work of building homes of logs from the forest. Small fruits, vegetables and produce which has a ready sale in the mar- kets of the eastern cities will be the spe- cialties. Any person of liberal views, industry and energy, Mrs. Diggs says, can become a member, but must contribute his share to- wards the cost of school houses, public buildings, ete. A person can become a member, own property with the colony and reside elsewhere if he contributes. Families will live separately. One of the first enterprises established will be a brick- yard, and @ shoe factory will seon follow. An electric light plant will furnish light for all the hcuses. It is probable that twenty families will go to the new colony from Kansas, and it is certain that many more will follow in 1896. Mrs. Diggs denies that Senator Peffer is cennected with the new movement, but says he is in favor of testing the scheme. Mrs. Diggs Wopes it will give the relief the populist party has not been able to get. + e*-____ Yale's New Commencement System. At the autumn meeting of the Yale cor- poration Tuesday night the chief business was the adoption of a complete new sys- tem of commencement exercises and the discontinuance of the valedictory and salu- tatory. The graduating thesis of the Law and Scientific schools and the Townsend ora- tions of the Academy department will be held as usual, and a new officer, who will be known as the orator, will present the candidates for degrees to the president of the corporation. Classical music will be introduced, and a. trained chorus of male voices will be selected from the University Glee Club for the occasion. Sa co U t A Oia MI OKET DAY, Friday; November 16th.

GENERAL NEWS NOTES. ‘The San Francisco. police have’ obtained evidence of the existence of the lawless and strongly organized band of Chinese highbinders, 3,000 jn number, residing in that city. This society is not only organ- ized of blackmatlers, murderers and thieves, but also has for its purpose the overthrow of the present Tattar dynasty. The late Rev. Benj. Brown Hamilton, whose funeral took place yesterday, was probably the oldest native born citizen in Illinois at the time of his death. Clarence W. Clark, who posed as a cham- pion bicyclist, and who is suspected of stealing a prize belt, has married Miss Gertrude Hutchins, a prominent Denver young lady. Eight new cases of smallpox were dis- covered yesterday within the infected belt on the west side of New York between 37th and 44th streets. This makes nearly fifty cases taken within a week, principally from that locality. Owing to the illness of Mr. Goff the work of the senate investigating committee will not be resumed in New Yark earlier than November 26, and possibly not before De- cember 1. ‘The Hamburg-American steamship line and the merchants of Hamburg, Bremen, Lubre, Stettin and Flensburg have filed protests against the prohibition of Ameri- can cattle and beef. Antonio Svarbero, a wealthy Italian un- dertaker, was arrested yesterday in Chi- cago, charged with fatally assaulting John Panghighi on election night. W. H. Gibbs, ex-postmaster at Jackson, Miss., has been sentenced to pay a fine of 3,920 and be imprisoned in .the Kings county, New York, penitentiary three years for embezzlement of post office funds to the amount of the fine. The question of the admission of Fannie Barrier Williams, colored, is before the Woman's Club of Chicago. ‘The missing British cruiser, Calypso, has arrived at the Canary Islands. Representative Wm. L, Wilson was given a reception and dinner by Massachusetts democrats at Boston last evening. John Washburn, to prove that the gun was not loaded, fired into a keg of powder in a powder store at Sing Sing, N. Y., yes- terday. He was killed and several others were badly hurt. Moses Christopher, a negro, who recently assaulted seven-year-old Moselle Carter, was hanged at Bowling Green, Va., yes- terday. Col. Colt of the fourteenth Ohio regiment has changed his mind and decided to go to Washington Court House to testify re- garding the recent trouble there. ‘To the general amazement, the official returns reverse the resuit previously an- nounced as final in the election of prose- cuting attorney and county marshal at Kansas City, and allen been ts- sued to the democrats. Mrs. Waite, wife of Jo's governor, says that she is disgusted“with the women of that state for voting against the party that disfranchised them. Eugene V. Debs, the A, i, U. president, expresses great satisfact! n rit the strike commission report. Dr. McCosh, ex-president of Princeton College, is confined to his by illness. He is eighty-three years ol seo Report of the Nica: Canal Co. The Maritime Nicaragua Canal Co. of New York has made its annual report to the Secretary of the Interior. The report refers to the depression fhat’ has prevailed during the year, which, ft says, has pre- vented it from doing any work or making any progress in the construction of the canal. The affairs of the Nicaragua Canal Construction Co., as organization within the Maritime Company, is reviewed. This company failed last year. It had the con- tracts to build portions of the canal, and it was owing to its failure that the Mari- time Company was unable to do any work. ‘The conatruction company is now reported to be reorganizing and the report says that it is in a fair way to become substantial. ‘The company expresses the hope that more favorable financial times will see the con- struction company ready to proceed with the Friis and progress made in building the can: BUCKINGHAM'S DYB be a when one Prin coloring its great populari DED FROM GEORGE IV. i, Ore, Lineman Grandson of a King. James L. Ord, a lineman of the Western Union Telegraph Company of Portland, Ore., has papers and documents proving that he is a great grandson of George IV, king of England. George IV, as Prince of Wales, married the beautiful and fascinating widow, Mrs. Maria Anne Fitzherbert. The issue of that union could not ascend the throne because his mother and father were married ac- cording to the Catholic rite, and the mother was a devout member of the Catholic Church. Under these circumstances the son of this unlon was a menace to the future king’s peace of mind. The upshot was that the son was brought to America, where he died at Omaha at the age of ninety-five years. He had seven children, one of whoin, the youngest male living, is John 8, Ord of Santa Cruz, Cal, and whose second son is James L. Ord of Portland, Ore. The flight of the son to America is historical. The documents proving his legitimacy are locked up in Coutts Bank, London, where they were deposited in 1833 by the Duke of Wellington. Proceedings are now being taken to compel the bank to open the papers to inspection. Young Ord’s grandfather, on reaching America, served in the United States army during the war of 1812, and was denounced by England as a traitor. A sister of the young man is the wife of S. W. Holliday, a San Francisco attorney. James L. Ord, who now resides in Portland, is twenty- four years of age. He is above the aver- age height, though of solid proportions. He is smooth-shaved and handsome. His manners aro easy and his conversation quiet and refined. — CENTRAL UNION MISSION. Pians for the Relief of the Poor Dur- ing the Winter. Rev. E. D. Bailey, chairman of the board of directors of the Central Union Mission, presided at a meeting yesterday afternoon of those who are interested in the work of providing a Thanksgiving dinner for the poor, There was a general discussion of the ways and means, und the outcome was a decision to give, in addition to the gen- eral distribution at the mission room, a special Thanksgiving luncheon to be sent to the homes of worthy people, and it will be necessary to make provision for at least 700 baskets. It was suggested that each of the school children be requested to con- tribute an apple or a potato, the total of which will make considerable material. Mrs. Macfarland will call upon Superin- tendent Powell of the public schools in this interest, and the other ladies on her com- mittee will call upon other school officials. Working committee were appointed as follows: Reception—Composed of directors and ex- directors and their wives, building commit- tee and their wives, with Mrs. Hitchcock, Miss Croft, Mrs. Merrick, Mrs. Robinson, — Stephens, Mrs. Griffith and Mrs. De- ano.

He was twenty-seven years of age. SOME COOKING RECIPES Miss Helen Johnson's Oulinary Lectures at Pure Food Show. Some Interesting Exhibits in Con- ‘vention Hall and the Crowds ‘That Go to See Them. ‘The attendance at the third annual pure food exposition, at Convention Hall last et exceeded by several thousands the nm of persons who visited the show on Tuesday. Everything is now running with the utmost smoothness, and the man- agement entertains no fear as to the suc- cess of the undertaking. The firm exhibiting Quaker oats and buckwheat has present a person attired in Quaker costume, who serves cakes and oats, and at the same time attracts much attention. One of the handsomest booths in the hall ts that erezted by the company displaying Eli Pettijohn’s best breakfast food. The siand is elaborately decorated with palms, hanging bagkets filled with chrysanthemums, cut flowers and special gas burners. A quartet of maidens, attired in fetching gowns of deep red and student's caps of the same color, serve as an addl- ticnal attraction. A novelty introduced last evening was the phantoscope, a device for photographing and reproducing animated pictures. It was presided over by the in- ventor, C. Francis Jenkins of this city, and was surrounded throughout the evening by an interested throng. Miss Helen Louise Johnson, assisted by her colored chef, Alec, at 3 o'clock yester- day afternoon gave the first of a series of ecoking lessons. Miss Johnson discoursed about eggs, and gave an interesting and practical illustration of the correct method of preparing them in various forms. The lectures begin promptly at 8 o'clock each afternoon, and continue about one hour. At the lecture this afternoon Miss John- son will prepare dishes according to the following recipes: Nesselrode pudding (copyrighted)—One pint chestnuts, ks four eggs, one pint cream, one tablespoonful vanilla, one cup sirup from preserved pineapple, one cup water, two ounces citron, two ounces candied cherries, two ounces pineapple, two ounces sultana raisins, one pound sugar. Shell the chestnuts, remove the thin brown skins, and put them in a saucepan with sufficient boiling water to cover. Simmer twenty minutes or until soft. Mash and press them through a colander. the fruit into small pieces, put the and water in @ saucepan over the fir until the sirup spins a thread, add to it the cup of pineapple sirup and pour over tke fruit. Scald one cup-of cream. Heat the yolks of the eggs very light, and add to the scalded cream on the fire and stir for two minutes. Add the chestnut pulp; mix well, take from the fire, and press through a sieve. When cold flavor with vanilla and sherry and freeze. When near- ly frozen, beat in the fruit and the remain- ing cup of cream, beaten stiff and dry. Mix well with a spoon. Cover and finish freezing. Remove the dasher and pack. Hard sauce (copyrighted)—Beat one- fcurth of butter to u cream, add gradually one-half of a cup of powdered sugar, stirring constantly, and beat until very light. Add the unbeaten whites of two eggs, one at a time, thoroughly amaiga- mating one before adding the next. Add one teaspoonful of vanilla, stir until well mixed; then add liquor if used, one table- spoonful of sherry or brandy. Mix weil, mold, and put in the ice box to harden be- fore using. Cream sauce (copyrighted)—Beat one- quarter of a cup of butter to a cream, add gradually one-half of a cup of powdered sugar, beating all the while. Add two tea- spoonfuls of wine, and, when well mixed, four tablespoonfuls of cream. When ready to serve the sauce, put over hot water. Sur until it is smooth and creamy. Serve at once. Foainy sauce—Beat one-half of a cup of butter to a cream, with one cup of powder- ed sugar. Beat until very light and white, then add the unbeaten white of one egg. Beat the mixture until very light. Stand over boiling water; add gradually one-half cup of boiling water and one-quarter of a cup of sherry; stir until it is frothy, and serve at once. Snow pudding (copyrighted)—Soak one- half a box of gelatine in one-half cup of cold water for half an hour; pour over it one pint of boiling water and then dissolve; add three-quarters of a pound of granu- lated sugar, and one-half of a cup of lemon juice; stir’ until the sugar is dissolved, strain into a basin. Stand when it is cold, not only until the liquid has cooled, but has begun to foam. It must be beaten until it is as white as snow before the eggs are added. Beat the white of three eggs to a stiff white froth. Beat them into the mix- ture, and when thoroughly mixed snowy white and stiff, turn into a motd previously wet with cold water. The liquid settles be- cause it is not beaten sufficiently, or is beaten before it begins to foam. It must be beaten stiff and foam before the eons are added. Then there is no their rising. ——>_— THE NASHVILLE TRAGEDY. cellor Allison’s Failure to Pay a Debt Cost His Life. It was at first thought that the killing of Chancellor Allison at Nashville yester- day was caused by the appointment by the chancellor of hia son as clerk succeeding Whitworth, the murderer. The facts later developed do not sustain this theory. From men familiar with. the transactions ove- tween the two it is learned that the cause of the tragedy was the failure of Allison to settle or secure a large sum due from him to Waitworth for moneys loaned, said to be about $25,000. For some weeks ef- ferts have been made by Whitworth to se- cure a settlement without success. Fre- quently arbitrators were appointed, Samuel J. Keith, a prominent banker, representing Whitworth, and T. M. Steger, a leading lawyer, acting for Allison. For some days they had been trying to bring about a satisfactory settlement, and yesterday Whitworth was informed that they could accomplish nothing. The shoot- ing followed. Last Sunday it was announced that Whit- worth would not succeed. himsel was feared that trouble would mediately by some, but as the days passed and nothing happened the entire city was dumfounded when the news was spread abroad that the chancellor had been killed by his clerk. “Allison was about fifty-tw: years old and had just begun his second term of eight ‘years, having been re-elected in August last. ————+-e+—___ SUNDAY NEWSPAPER: md Con at the Epis- copal Congress in Bost: “The Sunday Newspaper” was the topic which engaged the attention of a large at- tendance at the session of the Episcopal Church congress at Music Hall, in Boston, last evening. Rev. Robert A. Holland, D. D., of St. Louis, said that Sunday newspapers were as divers? as their number and no word that characterized one would exactly de- scribe another. He said: “The Sunday newspaper, without detaining the few who seek the highest heaven, saves millions of poor souls from listless stupor or ignorant pastimes by drawing their interest in the world’s daily life to an ampler reading than work-deys permit. It is their one book; their museum; their art gallery.” Richard H. Dana of Cambridge, Mass., attacked the Sunday newspapers. For pur- poses of comparison, Mr. Dana said he had obtained twenty-one papers from the cities cf Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Balti more, Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Louis. ville, Atlanta and San Francisco. ‘The il- lustrations of the papers were for the most part crude and inartistic. The moral effect of five of them was bad and of others very doubtful. Many of the comic pictures relied on vulgarity for their wit. A characteristic of the Sunday papers Mr. Dana had examined was a belittling of subjects treated, as if to bring them down to the intelligence of Inferior minds. Rev. Alexander Mackay Smith of this city and others spoke, and the discussion was concluded by Rev. Dr. Kirkus of Jer- sey City, who defended the Sunday news- paper and criticised those who attacked it.

The officers tried to direct the man to his vessel, but later again came across the man further up street. They then put him under arrest and took him to the station house. After he had been in his cell for a — while he pretended that it was necessary for him to leave his cell, and when Officer Webster responded to his call and unlocked his cell the man dealt the officer a severe blow with an 2 iron hook he uses in lieu of a right a.

The citizens of Cumberland, Md., held @ fistic carnival in the Opera House at that place on Tuesday evening, at which Peckham of this city knocked out his ponent, Tom Karl of Baltimore, in three spirited rounds. Frank Hogan, also of this city, defeated Joe Duffy of Cumberland in twenty-round contest with Jack Ryan of Chicago at Henry's Theater on the 20th of this month. Although the election for mayor of this city is over six months off the names of a number of gentlemen have already been suggested for that position. Among them are Messrs. Jno. Grigsby Beekham, W. H. May, J. A. Marshall, L. H. Thompson, Jos. Beach, W. B. Dobie and W. B. Smoot. It is reported that an effort will be made to get Mr. Park Agni to run as an inde- pendent. If Mr. Agnew runs, of course, the Tepublicans will not nominate a candidate. A sufficient number of rails having arriv- ed to complete the extension of the electric railway tracks from this city to the Driv- ing Park the work will be finished in a few days. The board of fire wardens have decided to purchase 300 feet of new rubber-lined linen hose, with a double jacket, for each of the two companies in this city. Mr. H. P. Cristie of New York will furnish it at a cost of 70 cents a foot, with necessary couplings. Messrs. Knox and Robinson have had erected at their coal and wood yard, at the northern end of Columbus street, a large windmill, with sufficient power to saw and split wood. This mili is the most —— that has been put up in this vi- cinity. While on her way from Occoquan to this city the.steamer Alton broke her piston- rod, and had to be tcwed here by the tug Dollman. On complaint of Mr. Martin Lawler, Charles Wilson, a colored youth, was ar- rested by Officer Griffin yesterday, charged with entering Mr. Lawler’s store and de- facing his property. He was fined $2.50. In default of payment he was sent to thi chain gang. It will be remembered that Wilson ts the same darkey who broke into St. John’s Academy some time ago and stole therefrom a lot of jewelry. Miss Selia Sinclair of Baltimore, who has been on a visit to Mrs. Julian T. Burke, on Prince street, returned to her home yes- terday. Miss Lucy Dorsey of Greenwood is visit- ing friends in this city. Mr. Geo. Peyton of Alexandria is visiting relatives in Charlottesville. Two new electric lights are to be placed in this city, one at the intersection of Co- lumbus and Madison streets and one at the intersection of Princess and West streets. Superintendent Dobie, by a mistake as to his instructions, has, without authority, taken out the pump and filled up the wel at the corner of Pitt and Queen streets. Such a resolution was introduced m the city council, but was laid on the table. The council will pass an enabling act for the benefit of the superintendent. ————— STILL LAGGING BEHIND, Only F y-Five Men on the City Post Office. Forty-five men were all that labored to- day on the city post office. They consti- tuted stone eetters, bricklayers, mortar mixers, derrick men, handy men, engi- neers and a very few iron handlers. Thanks to the government system of con- struction, the iron work will now lag until the stone work of the second and third stories has been completed. Then, and not until then, a most uncertain date, in- deed, will the framers begin again—if they be ready by that time—to erect the struc- tural skeleton for the fourth and fifth stories. It is fair to presume that if this were @ private enterprise the iren work of the entire building would be erected at once. It is mot uncommon in New York and Chicago, where these structures are general, to see ten and even fifteen stories of frames thrown up before a stone is oe In the case of the Cairo building in this city the iron frame was entirely fin- ished before a stroke of work was done on the masonry. In the present instance the stone and the iron contracts are con- tinually rubbing elbows, and at each ehift- ing there is awkward delay. The = ent iron job is only for the i a wad fourth and fifth stories. The enth and eighth stories and Reg sin “are to be done under a separate contract, and then will doubtless come another long wait. Meanwhile the schedule date of September 14, 1898, which fits the number 45 on the basis of the original calculation, is absurd on its face. The real date will more likely be September 14, 1008 or 1918. —- > FREDERICK. The famous Hoffman-Secrist road ase, which had been in litigation in this county for the past twelve years, has been finally decided by the court of appeals in favor of the petitioner for the road. ‘The case in- volved the opening of a small strip of read on the farm of Secrist,’ near Walkersville, and has cost the county thousands of dol- jars. Mrs. Rebecca Duvall died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Julia A. Ashbaugh, in this city, Tuesday night. She was eighty-six years old, and the widow of the late Wm.

Peyton Holmes, the one-armed negro who was arrested on a charge of disor- derly conduct by Policeman Murphy and then clubbed, was given a hearing in Judge Miller's court yesterday. The arrest was made in Howardtown Sunday night. Holmes’ cut and bruised head was offered as an exhiolt in the case.
