Hired a Hearse in His Savage Days in Which to Take a Ride. From the Guthrie Leader. Jack Stillwell, so well known to Kansas Plainsmen, is now a sober and well-kehaved citizen at the little town of Anadarko, in Oklahoma. Stillwell got his first fame by Passing through the Indian lines surround- ing the position of Forsythe, on the Aric- aree, in 1868, and getting to Fort Wallace for reinforcements. Later he served through Custer’s campaigns, and siill later appeared as one of the great cards in Buf- falo Bill's Wild West show. When Oklahoma was opened to settlers Stillwell located at El Reno, where for a term he was police judge. The lawlessness in the territory took many of her citizens up to Wichita to the sessions of the federal court. When Jack Stillwell went up, the people of Wichita usually knew that he was there. He, with some of his friends, was in the habit of livening up the town by va- rious kinds of freakish sport. On one occasion he hired a hearse and they were going to take a drive over town when the undertaker learned that there was no funeral and vetoed the thing just as Jack was crawling into the body of the ve- hicle. Jack tried to argue that they had paid for the use of it and could ride in it if they chose, but they had to give up the ride. 5 One evening, after they had been in town several days and were feeling tolerably good, Jack and some of his frien¢s were walkirg down the street, when they came to a bright, newly painted barber's pole. Jack sought out the proprietor, found what the pole cost, and bought it on the spot. Then the crowd hoisted it on their shoulders and went on down the street. They had not gone far before they “me up” with a patrolman, who, thinking they had, of course, stolen the pole, arres:ed the crowd and took them to the city bastile. There they put up a small cash bond and were released until morning. When morn- ing came they appeared for trial, and Jack explained that’ the pole was his and he had paid for it; that he was going to take it to Oklahoma, where the natives had never seen a barher’s pole, and it would he an object of curiosity and wonder. Then he sent for the barber from whom he had pur- chased the pole, and the result was that were all released. Whereupon they shouldered their pole and marched down the street again, to be arrested by another policeman and brought up hefore the judge again. As soon as the judge saw them he ordered the officer to let They started out in another di- y to be arrested for the third end the chief-of police wa: ue a general order stating that the pele belonged to Stillwell and he ould not be molesied. At the same time » intimated to Jack that they had had sport enough, and it would be weil for him to take his pole and return to his native wilds. o+—__ UNCLE SAM'S FIRST POSTAGE STAMP “Josh Billings’ Father Was the First Purchaser, Fifty Years Ago. From the Ladies’ Home Journal. Fifty years ago—in July, 1847—Uncle Sam issued his first postage stamps. In Eng- land, seven *years before, Rowland Hill, “father of the penny post,” introduced the ticking plasters,” as the stamps were contemptuously called. John M. Niles, our Pestmaster General at that time, tried heroically, but in vain, to move Congress to authorize stamps for this country. His successor, Cave Johnson, was more fortu- nate, and the bill desired was approved on March 1847, the stamps not being issued, however, till August, though the time ap- peinted was July 1. Only two values of the hew stamps were introduced in 1S47—a 5 and a l#-cent stamp, bearing, respectively, the portrait of Franklin in a bronze tint, and Washington in black. The first purchaser of stamps in the United States was Henry Shaw, the father of Henry Wheeler Shaw (better known as “Josh Billings,” the humorist). Mr. w was in the Postmaster General's office on Avgust 6, 1847, when Mr. Johnson entered with the printer from whom he had just réveived sheets of the new stamps. Mr. Jchnson passed a shect to Mr. Shaw for in- spection. After giving the stamps a hasty glance. Mr. Shaw, perhaps with an eye to fiture fame, took out his wallet, counted out 15 cents, and purchased one of each variety. The “five” he kept as a curiosity, the “ten” he presented to Gov. Briggs as an appropriate gift. ———_+«+—___ : Overbuilding of Cities. E. V. Smalley in the New York Post. A real estate man who goes about this city a good deal tells me that there are today in Chicago 30,000 vacant flats and dwelling houses, and that on West Madi- son street alone, a thoroughfare that runs far out to the city limits and is the chiet business artery of the west side, 300 empty stores can be counted. When you go a little way out of the business center by cable or electric cars you notice tall build- ings and small buildings on either hand that are speckled with signs of ‘For Rent.” In fact, this big. growing city was about as badly overbuilt during the period of excessive speculation as were any of the new and boastful towns of Kansas or of the Pacific coast, and it will probably take four or five years of steady development to bring the population up to full occupancy of the existing facilities for housing it and furnishing it with business offices and stores. Tne result of this zeal for building has been a heavy decline in rents. Kor flats and small stores the decline ranges from 30 to 50 per cent. Office rent in the new tall buildings has gone down about 25 per cent. If any properties now yield their old incon.es they are such as are very favorably located in the immediate center and whiri of the business movement. Chi- cago, like New York, has its best business district pretty closely limited and cor- ralled. Here the boundaries are set by the river on two sides and the lake on a third. + e+ Our Nation’s Wealth in Gold Dollars, Form the Ladies’ Home Journal. The wealthiest nation of the world is the United States. The census of 189) shows the true valuation, cr fair selling price, of the real and personal property of the coun- try to be $65,087,001, It is an increase of over 49 per cent on the valuation cf the previous decade, and is about six times the value of the money of the en‘ire world. The mind cannot grasp the meaning of such figures without graphic illustration. This_amount in gold doilars would load Bs carts, each carrying a ton. If 2,000 wold dollars were piled one on the other they would form a stack three feet high. Make similar piles close together till a wall of gold one mile long and worth $230,- 4,000 1s formed. Increase this wall to twenty-eight and a quarter miles and the amcunt would represent our ational wealth. Placed side by side the coins would form a carpet of gold covering five square miles. * ———_+ e+ _____ Testing the Drains With Peppermint on. From the Londo: Figaro.

RESPONDED TO BUGLE CALL Unique Service by the Salvation Army at Washington Grove. The Tabernacle Crowded by Persons Tacker — A Knee Drill. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. WASHINGTON GROVE, M4., July 11, 1897. The notes of a bugle call rang out in the clear mornirg air and the gathering of members of the Salvation Army in the ‘Tabernacle gave notice of the first meeting for this the great day of the camp. At 7 o'clock a knee drill was had, under the command of Capt. Scott of Baltimore; at 9 o'clock, headed by its brass band, the army marched down Grove avenue and held a prayer service upon the platform of the depot; at 11 o'clock crowds were in at- tendance at the first of the especial serv- ices for the day, in which Commander Booth-Tucker was to take the leading part. When he arrived at the Tabernacle, which was filled to its greatest capacity, he was received by repeated blasts of the trumpets, kallelujahs from the comrades and a Chau- tauqua salute from the audience, who were all standing. The commander gave out the hymu, “Washed in the Blood of the Lamb,” and, after it had been sung, led in prayer, which was followed by selections rendered by the singing brigade. After a few remarks by Brigadier Evans and a solo by Adjutant Taylor the commander announced the 10th verse of the 6th chapter cf Paul's letter to the Ephesians as the subject for his dis- course. The speaker was cloeely followed by an attentive audience. Work in India. He referred to his work in India and also to the fact that he was now on his way to the great southwest, where he was to examire colonization sites for the poor of our great cities. Dr. Nice was present, as promised, and with his violin contributed to the enter- tainment of the audiences. The shower of rain this afternoon failed to disperse the crowds upon the grounds, and the evening service vas attended by larger numbers than in the morning. The 20th chapter of Revelation was se- lected by the commander as the basis for his evening remarks, and in a most inter- esting manner he presented the truth and fave thoughts for serious consideration. “The Great White Throne” was his theme. Additional members of the army were present today, and through the thoughtful- hess of the president of the assoctation or- were issued for the stopping of the 10:53 p.m. express for Washington for the accommodation of the city visitors. Close of the Camp. Tomorrow ends the camp of the army, and, as announced, meetings will be held at the usual hours. At 3 o'clock Adjutant Taylor will have charge of the meeting, und the notice was given out that a “high old time” might be expected. A “Social Stereopticon” is advertised for the evening, Leginning at $ o'clock. ‘The arrival of Commander Booth-Tucker Was made the occasion of a glorious sere- nade by the Quaker Band, and a good- ly procession of soldiers and friends, who had been in attendance upon the song car- nival on Saturday night.

A Negro Fiend Pounds a Farmer Into Insensibility. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., July 11, 1897. Much excitement prevails in the eastern section of this county over a murderous as- sault made upon Mr. Frank Griffith Mriday Jast, ard which at latest accounts is likely to prove fatal. Mr. Griffith resides in Howard county, a very short distance from the Montgomery ccunty line, and has had in his employ as a farm hand for several months a negro named Tom Brown, who came to him from Baltimore city. Friday during the forenoon they both had been at work in the field and when the hour of noon came went to the house for dinner. Mrs. Griffith, accompanied by her two crildren, had left home on business, but had before leaving provided a lunch for them. The negro appeared to be in a bad humor and declared he would not eat un- less he had a hot dinner. Mr. Griffith ex- postulated with him and told him he ought to be satisfied, as he was offered the same kind of dinner he was eating himself. This did net satisfy him and he continued curs- ing, when Mr. Griffith paid him what he owed him and ordered him to leave the place. When he had finished eating Mr. Griffith, supposing the negro had gone, started back to the field, but when he turned the cor- ner of the house he was struck in the head with a stone by the fellow and knocked to the ground. As soon as he fell the negro Jumped upon him and with his heavy boots stamped him on all parts of the back, leaving him in an unconscious condition. Not yet satisfied with his work, the negro went back into the house and broke up all the dishes and other articles in the room, and finally left the place. Mr. Griffith r mained unconscious until an hour after the return of his wife, who arrived about 4 o'clock. An alarm was given and medical aid summoned, when it was discovered that the skull had been fractured and that he was otherwise badly injured. His father, Judge Charles H. Griffith of the orphans’ court of this county, and other members of the family were notified and were soon with the wounded man, he residing but a few miles from them. A description of the negro was at once tele- graphed to the police of Baltimore and Washington. Brown is said to be a desperate and dis- reputable character, having served a term in the Maryland penitentiary. Mr. Griffith fs a well-to-do and popular citizen, and feeling in regard to the outrage runs high. Rockville, for the first time in the his- tory of the town, was Saturday night bril- liantly illuminated throughout with electric lights. The top of the high tower, con- nected with the water supply, standing on an eminence east of the railroad, was also illuminated with twenty lights, and was visible for miles. The test of the lighting capacity of the plant was perfectly satis- factory. Inspector Hollinberger received a dis- patch from Rockville last night, asking that the police be instructed to look out for the fugitive, Brown. The dispatch was signed by Charles H. Griffith, and stated that Brown was wanted for murder. He ts described as being about thirty-five years old, and wearing a brown slouch hat, sharp-toed shoes and a pink shirt. The dispatch stated that he {is a native of Bal- timore. ————__ = If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star.
