Loxpox, Oct. 25.—Chamberlain, spoaking to-night at a meeting to bid him farewell on his American trip, said they had all seen the telegram stating that Irish-Americans would do all in their power to mar his mission. The sources of the statement might be tainted, yet represented undoubt- edly the fact that the Irish-Americans were ready to use every effort to prevent a settlement. There never has beon a time in the Jast thirty years when the Irish in America has not been willing to use the privileges conceded them by their adopted country in order to sow disension and pro- mote ill-feeling between Great Brit#in and America. He was encouraged, however, by the belief that n vast majority of nativo Americans and every Englishman and Scotchman in the United Kingdom would ré- gard conflict between these two countries as & crime of thie doepest dye They were carnestly desirous would not allow it to be jeopardized by party rancor or personal feclings.

St. Pavt, Oct. 3.—Dr, Burnard, who was Baltimore & Ohio, and who has charge of Mr. Garrett for a number of years has been The recent severance of his important corporate or private interest, and this is all there is in the many sensational stories that have been published of late.

A Dispatch Which Would Indicate That He Is Not. George Francis Train was expected to ar- rive in Omaha this morning from Kansas City, where ‘he has been lecturing for the past three days to crowded houses. Yester- day the Bee received telegraphic assurances from the eccentric lecturer, in his own pecu- liar style, that he was to take a Turkish bath here to-day and invited the reporters to meet him. But it would seem that Mr- Train is going to disappoint all who have been expecting to see and hear him. At least that is the way the BEE trans- lates the following dispatch which was re- ceived at an early hour this morning: Kaxsas Crry, Mo., Oct. 25.—BEeE, Omaha.— Kansas City captured.

Amsterdam has long been one of the great coffee marts of the world, and, being admitted free of duty, coffee is very cheap. Next comes Belgium and Denmark, in which the consumption per capita is about half of that of Holland. Next comes the United States, in which the consumption r capita in 1880 was eight and eight- tenths pounds. The present consump- tion of coffee in the United States may be stated at a little over one pound per week for each family in the na- tion. In the use of tex and coifee the people of England and the United States present a most remarkable contrast. The annual consumption of the people of England is just about a pound of cof- fee per head, or about one-oighth of that of the people of the United States. Comparing the consumption of tea with that of coffee, it will found that, while the people of the United States use about five pounds of coffee to one of tea, the people of England use five pounds of tea to one of coffee. There ave fashions in coffee, as in almost everything. At Aden and Alex- andria the Mocha coffee is carefully picked over and assorted, in compliance .

Although a very limited notice was given of the republican rally of last evening it was sufficient to fill the opera house, which indicates that the princi- ples of republicanism have yet a fair hold upon the hearts of American peo- ple. Colonel D. B. Henderson was the gpeaker of the evening, and for an hour and a half he showed facts and figures; compurisons between republican and democratic admiristrations; debated the question of finance, tariff, civil service, labor and capital, obedience to law the duty of every citizen, and the other h enter iuto and consti- tute the political problem of to-day. The colonel is a strong speaker and is es- pecially forcible in his illustrations. —— Best New Orloans molasses, 20¢ qt., 750 gal., Troell Bro e spls L For “The Boys' " Benefit.

Al L HUNTER'S LEGACY. How He Proposes to Live After Death and Make a Fortune. San Francisco Chronicl J. Hunter, who is better known us th “man without legs,” and who formerly sold papers ut tho forry landings, died a horrible death yesterday aff noon at 4:15 o’clock in the city rece ing hospital. Hunter had gone there about one week ago, saying that on the night previous he ‘had eaten by mis- take, or rather while he was asleep at the Commercial hotel, a piece of bread, on which before retiving he had spread rough on rats. He was immediately made to take severe emetics, after which he went inte &piieptic fits. Since his admission to the hospital he has had 8ix of them, during the last of which he died. The hospital steward believed yester- day morning that Hunter had entirely recovered und intended discharging him at noontime. Prior to that, how- ever, he cut off the handle of a broom to replace Hunter’slostcane and Landed it to him to t it w2s snort enough. Hunter immediately used the stick to administer a threshing to the steward, in which he was fairly successful for a while, until a misdirected blow brought the cudgel up against the hospital wall, when it broke. The steward then mas- tered his assailant and put him in a rait-jacket, He promised Hunter his v o in an hour provided he hehaved himself, but the man, by that time fairly frenzied, yelled and cursed hor- ribly, g To a veporter of the Chronicle, who spoke to hiia during the afternoon, he Cranberrie said he had been put in the jacket be- cause he spoke to thestewart about God, ‘‘a being the —— rascal has never heard of before.” He further stated that if he were not given his liberty he would “soon peg out.” True enough, a fow minutes later, when he was alone, he was taken with a fit and when found he was dead. Hunter was a_typieal character. He was a shrewd, discerning New Hamp- shire Yankee, who lived by his wits, He always had some scheme on_foot to mulet people out of money, and when he was in funds he took his ense until poverty stared him in the face again and then he would start out for new victims. He preyed on men in all walks of life, and sometimes soared high for game. Recently he tried to cateh Senator Leland Stanford in his net, but the latter wouldn't bite, and left Hunter’s letter requesting an interview unanswered. What he thought of the senator’s slight is freely exprossed in a note which was found by the coroner among Hunter's letters. It had evidently been written just before he took the poison, and he did not find time to mail it. Here it is: Mr. Stanford: I sent you a note on the 30th of September, thinking you was a gen- tleman. 1 proposed to have a gentlemanly talk with you, but us you was hog enough to even keep the 2-cent stamp I sent you I ad- vise you to look out for the Future if you imagine there is no Death. Yours with con- tempt. ONE WHO AsKED A FAVOR. Another letter, original both in its style and idea, was addressed to Dr. C. C. O'Donnell, to whom Hunter “dedi- cates” his body in the following lan- guage Dr. C. C. O'Donnell—Dear Sir: natural presentment that my existence will terminate very abruptly on account of the numerous trances I have fallen into lately, and on account of our old doctor at home avoiding any intervention in my system on all occasions as being some thing beyond the comprehension of human skill, therefore, as Dr. 0'Donnell kindly benefited mo one day in sickness by furnishing medicine for noth- ing, I, in return dedicate this frame of mine to him in event of what is called death, for the doctor to experiment for the advance- ment of the human race to which [cheerfully dedicate myself. Doctor, please givo this your close atten- tion and you will not only advance the human race, but very materially advance your and my fortune in the event” of my death. You observe my legs are cut off. Take i wire, after first having pumped all the blood out of my veins and the marrow out of my bones, and connect with the arteries the gal- vanized wire; then conn the different veins with the galvanized wire, and the bones with the galvanized iron tube, and make arti- ficial legs: cover the whole with some kind of flesh. Sceing all the connections form a complete cireuit with the body, pnmp elec- tricity into the whole body through the nos- trils and 1 am a new man again for another generation, But the actual process of eternal life I hold that sccret myself and will impart it to none until after my proper restoration as directed by me, and if that is not done I shall have the pleasure of restoring myself when se in another form.

New York Mail: *“The fashionable walking sticks for this fall and winter will not be as large as they were last year,” said a salesman in a Broadwsy shep, “The swell yeuths who carried those telegraph poles last winter found themselves pulled down in flesh when spring came. The result is that the medium weight sticks will be most in demand this season. The plain_ styles are selling best now. The English hazel and the French crab sticks, with medium-sized silver caps, a popular, and ash, olive, orange, and snakewood, with crooks or knobs all in one piece, are correct for all but dress occasions. Crooks and crutches of buckhorn are still very popular, and some new sticks are made of American laurel, which, by the way, comes from Mexico. Old English oak is also in use this season, and is as stylish for canes as it is for house decorations. “Silver-deposit canes came out this year, and are in great demand. ~They are made by covering the wood with graphite to make it a conductor of elec- tricity and then electro-plating the top. *‘A'great many gentlemen this year have cut articles for themselves where they have been summering and brought them to us to have the silver deposit put on them. We have to keep a large variety of fantastic styles, such as demons, dragons, harlequins and clowns. These are all in silver, und some are very effective, as, for instance, this one of a skull with a lizard crawling on it. Another skull cane has emeralds for eyes and the lower jaw pivoted so that it opens and shuts as youmove the stick. We get the London and Paris designs as soon as they come out, and we import some of the classes of sticks that we think we sell. There are more home designs sold than imported ones.” Having a NG STICKS. ieved of a Bur- Carefor the bhildren Children feel the debility of the changing seasons, even moro than adults, and they be- como cross, peevish, and uncontrollablo.
