New York, May 31.—Nineteen years ago the country was startled by the report of the biggest bank burglary known in the history of the world. It occurred Sunday, Oct. 27, 1878 The j Manhattan Savings institution of this city was robbed of securities valued at $2,747,700 and $11,000 in cash. With the exception of a few bends offered for sale some time ago, none of the securieits have been recovered. It was believed that they had been burned or destroyed. That the securi- ties are still in existence is known here. A short time ago negotiations were opened between men_ said to represent the burglars and President Joseph Bird, of the Manhattan Sav- ings institution for their return. The burglars have made a demand for $50,- 000 and no questions to be asked, with the understanding that the securieits are to be handed over in good shape and that immediately upon their de- livery the money shall be paid in cash. President Bird, who, at the time of the robbery was paying teller of the Manhattan Savings institution, said to-day that $50,000 had been asked for the return of the bonds, and although the bank oflicials would like to get them back, he declared they would not pay that amount. Continuing, Mr. Bird said: ‘Many of the securities are worthless to-day, I should say, since the government came to our assistance some time ago by an act of congress authorizing the secretary of the treas- ury to reissue duplicates in place of the stolen United States bonds. There s a number of other bonds, issued cities and corporations, however. Some of these are due soon, and of course we would ‘like to have the originals, as it would make it easier for us to collect the moneys involved.” ANARCHISTS ARRESTED. Forty-Seven Picknickers Locked Up for Disorderly Conduct. Pittsburg, May 31. — An anarchist sniec at a grove near Glenwood was raided by the police and forty-seven men taken prisoners. The charge pre- ferred against the prisoners is dis- | orderly conduct and breaking the city ordinance which prohibits the sale of beer on a picnic ground. It is claimed lotteries were also in operation, and several rifles and a large lot of bullets were captured which the men said were to be used in a shooting gallery which had not been erected at the time of the raid. The picnic was being held in celebration of the release a few days ago of Henry Bauer and Carl Nold from the penitentiary, where they had served four years for inciting riot at Homestead at the time of the big strike at that place. Bauer and Nold. who were among those arrested, say the action of the police is an out- rage, and some one will be made to suffer for it. STANDING OF THE CLUBS. Western League.

Budd for the Execution. Sacramento, Cal., May 31.—Theodore Durrant will hang on June 11, one week from next Friday. Gov. Budd has telephoned that much in effect to Warden Hale, of San Quentin, at the same time ordering the death watch placed upon the prisoner. Immediate- ly after this telephoning the governor was driven in a closed carriage to the depot, where he took the train for San Francisco Jarred the Telescope. Chicago, May 381.—Yerkes observa- tory, at Williams’ Bay, Wis., will be closed for the summer, the movable floor of the dome having been wrecked by a fall of forty-five feet. This floor, which was seventy-five feet in diame- ter, was suspended by inch cables and unbalanced the floor, which fell to the bottom of the dome. In its fall it carried the winding stairway of the support of the telescope with it, crush- ing the electric apparatus underneath it. The floor lies now a complete wreck. The loss from this part of the accident is slight, but it is feared the jar may have disturbed the accuracy of some of the very delicate machinery of the telescope. Canada’s Fast Stenmship Service. London, May 31. — The Times pub- lishes a letter from the shipbuilding firm of Peterson, Tate & Co., of New- castle. in which they decline to enter into a controversy with the Allan Steamship company on the subject of the conditions of the provisional agree- ment between Peterson, Tate & Co. and the dominion government for the proposed fast steamship service be- tween Canada and Great Britain. The firm expresses itself, however, as fully prepared to carry out its contract, and as confident of the success of the new service. The Spanish Crisis.

Condensed Proceedings of tlic: Na~ _ tonal Law Mill. Washington, May 26.—The debate on the tariff bill began in the senate with. crowded galleries and a large attend- ance of senators and the tariff leaders: of the house. Minor business claimed attention up: to 2 oclock, When Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island, in charge of the tariff bill, took the floor for the opening: speech. At that time every available seat in the galleries was occupied. The Republican side of the floor showed an almost solid representation, there being but three or four vacant seats. The Democrats also presented full ranks, and the scattered seats. ot the populists were occupied with but one exception. Mr. Dingley, chairmam of the ways and means committee, anc author of the house bills took a seat immediately beside Mr. Aldrich, and listened attentively. Other Re- publican members of the ways and means committee and Representative Simpson, of the Populist contingent, occupied the rear lounges. Speaker Reed was not present- Mr. Aldrich spoke for almost an hour and a quarter, adopting an easy conversational style. His speeeh was the official utterance of the finance committee, and, in a sense, the Repub- lican side of the chamber. Without making invidious distinc tions between the two bills Mr. Al- rich clearly stated as the belief of the finance committee that the house bill would not yield revenue adequate for the needs of the government. Mr. Vest of Missouri, one of the Demo- cratic members of the finance commit- tee, followed with a statement in op- position to the bill. He spoke of the futility of piling up taxes on an over- burdened people when there was a bal- ance of $129,000,000 in the treasury. He criticised the schedules in detail. declaring that some of them were de- signed to be prohibitive. He severely attacked the increase in the lead duty, declaring it was for the benefit of the “cormorants” of monopoly and against the people. Mr. Cannon of Utah, a Silver Repub- lican, closed the debate for the day by urging that the protection should be so distributed as to aid the farmers. Early in the day Mallory, the new sen- ator from Florida, was sworn in and took his seat. Washington. May 27.—The first vote on the tariff bill was taken in the sen- tes yesterday. It came after a t hours’ debate on the item of boracic acid, which, although comparatively unimportant, afforded an opportunity for the first alignment of the various elements. Mr. Vest of Missouri, a Democratic member of the finance committee, moved to make the rate on boracic acid 3 cents instead of 5 cents per pound, as provided by the commit- tee. This presented a direct issue be- tween the committee and the op- ponents of the bill. The amendment was defeated—34 to 20. The vote was largely on party lines. The affirmative was made up of 19 Democrats and 1 Populist, Heitfeld. The negative was made up of 29 Republicans, 2 Demo- erats, MecEnery of Louisiana and White of California; 2 Silver Republic- ans, Cannon of Utah and Jones of Ne- yada, and 1 Populist, Stewart of Ne- vada. The debate was participated in by Senators Vest, Jones of Arkansas, Aldrich, Perkins, White, Caffrey, Gray and Stewart. Mr. White, a Democrat- ic member of the finance committee, opposed Mr. Vest’s amendment. urg- ing that the California industry re- quired the rate allowed by the commit- tee. Seven paragraphs of the bill were considered during the day, the com- mittee being sustained in each in- stance. The resolution was agreed to author- izing the secretary of the navy to em- ploy any suitable ship in forwarding relief supplies to India. Washington, May 31. — Progress on the tariff Dill in the senate was checked, the plate paragraphs proving a source of controversy lasting throughout the day. As a result little more than a page of the bill was dis- posed of. The finance committee pro- ceeded without difficulty in resisting proposed amendments from Democrat- ic members of the committee, although each amendment was debated at great length. An exciting incident occurred when Senator Morgan was called to order by Mr. Gallingér, who was tem- porarily in the chair, for severely crit- icising the inaction of the house of rep- resentatives. Mr. Morgan declared that the speaker of the house was en- forcing an automatic trap-door rule by which representatives were assem- bled and dispersed, and he character- ized this action as an outrage against popular rights. Mr. Frye first gave warning that a protest would be made against criticisms of the other house. and when Mr. Morgan vehemently re- peated his criticisms Mr. Hale made a point of order against him. The tem- porary presiding officer directed Mr. Morgan to resume his seat and then ruled that he was out of order. The Alabama _ senator, somewhat cha- grined, was abo t to appeal from the decision of the chair when Mr. Hale withdrew the point of order and fur- ther friction was avoided. Mr. Mor- gan resumed his criticisms during the tariff debate and made the point that congress was not now in session in ac- cordance with the constitution, the house of representatives having va- cated its functions. After a sharp contest with the tariff leaders Mr. Quay succeeded in carry- ing a motion to adjourn over the Dec- oration day celebration to-day. Must Waer Stripes Henceforth. ‘Deadwood, S.

Bowman, Instructor of Natural Science in Hartsville College; Cured of a Severe Illness by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People After Physicians Failed. From the Republican, Columbus, Ind. Frof. 2. S. Bowman, the able instructor of natural science in the famous Hartsville, (Ind.,) College, is well and favorably known, not only as an educator, but also asa minister of the gospel, as for a num- ber of years he was pastor of the United Brethren church at Charlotte, Mich., be- fore eoming to Hartsville. PROF. R. 8. BOWMAN, Some time ago he had a severe illness which was cured almost miraculously. A reporter hearing of this, interviewed him regarding his experience. Prof. Bowman was in the midst of his work when the re- porter called, but he cheerfully gave him a hearing. “A year ago last fall,” said the professor, “JT broke down with nervous exhaustion, and was urable to properly attend to my | duties. I tried different physicians but with no relief, and also used many different: pro- prictary medicines, spending almost fifty lollars for these medicines alone. I then succumbed to a siege of the grip in the middle of winter, and was left ina much worse condition. My kidneys were fear- fully disordered, and my digestion became very poor. I was indeed ina bad condition. “A minister in conference learning of my condition advised me to try Dr. Williams” Pink Pills for Pale People. I had heard much about the wonderful curative powers of this medicine, but it was with reluctance that I was reer persuaded to try it, as it seemed that nothing could do me any good. However, I procured three boxes of pills and took them strictly according to. direc- tions. By the time the last dose was taken I was almost cured, and in better health than I had been for ears. I continued using the pills awhile longer and was en- tirely cured. I can cheerfully recommend Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.’* Such was Professor Bowman’s wonderful story which was further endorsed by the Rollbwing affidavit.

When this shelf is securely set in, fasten the sec- ond barrel head back again, and tight- en all the hoops. Now saw out a gen- erous-sized door in the center of the barrel. When it opens, the shelf with its square side should stand across the middle of the opening. Put hinges on the door, and then you have a comfort- able little pantry for cottage use, or, if washstands are not plentiful, the invertion will serve admirably as one, if draped so that the barrel-shape alone is visible. A Turkish towel, or, better yet, toweling cut in a circle, will cover the barrel top nicely, and protect the drapery below.—Harper’s Bazar. Pat and the Cockney.

A cricket yarn which is having a fine run in Australia refers to the use made of a cricket ball by some prisoners who were allowed to exercise in the yard of a country gaol. Drives over the gaol wall became so frequent that the prisoners did little else but field and throw the ball back again. At last the governor became suspi- cious, and insisted on examining the ball. It was of India rubber and re- markably light for its size. The ex- planation was that the inside was composed of tobacco. The halves of the ball screwed to- gether neatly, and it is now said to be one of the treasures of the gaol muse- um.—London Firefly. Didn’t Scare Him a Bit.
