Tho primary object of the host and hostess ‘was to keep all suggestion of & silver weaaing from the minds of their friends, but “love will find out the way,” and the house was as fragrant as a roso gardon with silver vases and silver baskets filled with all the sweet varietios of the queen of flowers, testifying to tho kindly thoughtiulness of Mr. and Mrs, Rosewater's many fricnas. An especially lovely tribute of flowers was a silve reponsee bowl with a mass of groen leave aud twenty-five great nodding “American beauties,” a charming fashion of numbering the red lutter years of their married life. ‘I'here were more lasting re braoces in any quantity of boautiful silver, a salad bowl with fork and epoon, cases of forks, aud duinty single picces from home friends and those away, Whe sent a shining remem- brance in honot of the day. -The ecmployes of I'rie Brr Publishing company presented 1o Mr. and Mrs, Rosewater un exquisite bust in Parian marble, an ideal head of a lovely girl-womun, mounted on & handsome podes- tal, the top of which was a plinth of onyx supported by four heavy brass standards. Near the baso of the pedestal was another plinth of plate glass, aviached to the stand- ards. A silver plate, prettily engraved, was suspended between tho standards, and an address framed in silwer accon- ponied the gift, wishing the bride and bridegroom of twenty-five years their hearv's desire of bright days and shining success. ‘T'he employes of ['nir Beg composing room testified to theic regard for Mr. und Mrs Rosewater by presenting them with a_ban some silver oyster dislf, hundsomely chased.

Congratulatory telegrams were received from numerous fricuds at a distancoe who were unable to be preseut to expross in person their hearty wishes for their future well being. About 9 o'clock a number of ladies, com- prising *The Coffeo society,’ an organization composed of neighbora and intimate frieads of Mrs. Roscwater, arrived in a body and extendea their best wishes to the genial host and hostess, presenting them at the sane time with a crown and a bouttoniere formed of suver. TUNS OF E:\RTH'UI‘ON HIM, They Crush Out the Wetzler. James Witzler, employed by Samuel W. Dennis in the sand pit on East N street, was caught by a falling bank yesterday morning and instantly killed. The bank, sixty feet high, was being un- aermined and -caving in, caught the unfor- tunate man before he could get away. About six tons of earth fell on him. ' Coroner Drexel was summoned and held an inquest. Mr. Witzler was aged twenty-eight years, unmarried, & native of Penusylvania, and came from Marshall county, Kansas. He boarded with F. W. Millett on Twenty- second, near J street. The coroner’s jury returned a verdict that aeath was caused by carelessness or negli- gonce by reuson of the bank not being thrown down before the accident. There 'was no charge made as to who was responsi- ble for this neglect. Life of James ‘The Season atthe Emanon. Arrangements ure being made for a very brilliant social season at the Emanon.

They Rival Those of the United States and India. ELEVATORS ARE BADLY NEEDED. Lack of Facilities For Harvesting, Btoring and Shipping the Grain to Market—What thna Czar is Doing. Russia’s Wheat Ontput, Wasnisarox, Nov. 11,—(Special to Tne Bee. | —If Russia has never been a serious rival to the United States and Indiain tho production of wheat to supply the market of the world, she promises to be in the future. The great drawback to the wheat producers in Russiais the lack of elevator accommoda- tions. One cau travel from Warsaw to St. Potersburg, then to Moscow and back again to the capital of Poland without seeing as much storege room for wheat as he can in any one of a thousand elevators in tnis coun- try, and the travel around this triangle 18 two or threo thousand miles distance through the finest wheat producing portion of the czar's domain. The farmers of Russia have been compelled to keep their wheat after 1t is threshed in the open field until the single line of railroad was ready to carry it out of the country. Besides this great drawback the farmers have not been supplied with either reapors or threshers to any consider- able oxtent; they have been compelled to haryest their wheat with a sickle and thresh with a flail, Vory late advices from Moscow are to the effect that the government is taking hold of tho elevator question With a view to con- structing an ample storage for tne demand along gailroads and at points where noeded; that the governwent will also but uy a 8ys- tem of olovators in comumunities where wheat 18 produced 1n large quantities not ad- jacent to either railroads or water transpor- tation. F'rom other sources of information your correspondent learns that the land owi in [tussin are introduciog improved machinery for. sowing, barvesting and threshing wheat. It is impossible to successfally produce corn, potatoes or auy of the other products of the soil in that great belt of Russin which has made her famous for wheat, and there is no doubt that the forward step taken by the czar to_ assist his suvjects in increasing the value of farm land will make that country a serious rival to_the United States in supply ing certain markets of the world. A letter from Moscow has this to say on this new venture: “Much has been written and a great daal more has been said about the many hard- ships and losses suffered by the grain grow- ers of this country, owing to the want of ad- equute means for’ storiug and transporting their produce. At certain periods of the yeur such quantities of grain are brought to tne railwuy depots that a sufficient number of wagons for 1ts transport is not to be had, nor are the railways prepared to store it. Piled up in sacks in the open, exposed to rain and snow, much of it becomes damaged and worthless. Such a condition of things is dis- astrous to the small farmer, who can not af- ford to store his produce, but is compelled to convert it into ready money, and is entirely ab the mercy of the middlemen, There are many instances of advances being taken on the crops from these very middlemen, who, of course, have 1t ull their own way as soon as the crop 1s arvested, “It is far from my intention to heap hot coals upon the heads of these much abused middle-men, or koulaky (meaning *fists”), as they are designated here. Iam inclinea to think that however hard they may be at a bargain they are too wise to attempt killing the goose that lays the golden egge; and if they make big profits they ran great risks, and must occasionally suffer losses. “Whero to find the remedy was what greatly exercised the minds of the Russian national economists. At one time the forma- tion of & large and powerful company, for the purposc of erecting American _elevators and granaries at certain important railway depots where the grain could be stored and advances obtained on it at determined rates of interest, was proposed. I believe conces- sions were applied for, in order to form such a company, but tho government, fearing lest the remedy might become the greater evil by creating a -monopoly, refused to encour- age any such scheme. After a delay of about four years ahappy solution of the question appears to have at least been arrived at. **Ihe necessary sanction for the erection and working of elevators has been granted by a recent imperial edict empowering the Southwestern and the Raigun-Kosloff rail- ways to construct fourteen of these clevators along their respective lines, oneof them to be at Odessa. The intention of the govern- ment 18 to Jeave the working of elevators to the railways, but not to the exclusion of pri- vate undertakings of the kind, or by town corporations, municipalities or other public bodies.” The zemstvos (rural municipalities) are empowered to erect elevators, and although the government does not wish to influence them, or to lay any prossure on them, 1t 18 certain that any initiative they may take with regard to this question will be viewed with tavor. Three different modes of introducing tho adoption of grain elevators into the country are open to the government. They are, either to construct them at gov- ernment cxpense and, to work them; to grant concessions, and’ thus encourage and create private enterprise; or to leavo the con- struction of them to the railways. 1t is the latter mode that has pre- vailed, but the government has re- served for itsolf the absolute right of appropriating all these elevators at any mo- ment it may deem fit. A scale of charges for the use of elevators has been fixed and remains under control of the state, ‘T'he government has evidently gone care- fully into all the details of the guestion, and adopted every precautionary measura to pre- vent the creation of anything approuching to moaopoly. To mect the cost of the construction of the elevators the Southwestern railway has been authorizeli to make use of 1ts pension fund, on condition that the money be paid by an- pual installments spread over a term of twelve years at an interest of 58 per cent. Should the revenuo derived from the ele- vators prove sufficient the deficiency shall be paid out of the company’s general rev- enue. For the samne purpose the Riasan- Kosloff railway is authorizod to issue a loan rented by the government., ‘The elavator system 80 much needed in Russia will now be introdaced without the expenditure of any government funds, and still a perfoct control of the entire system 18 secured to the government on conditions hardly suitea to private undertakings of tho same kind, and here is the reason for giving vroference to railways.

The total number of periodicals then registered was 11,314, of which 971 were published daily. The enumera- tion of Rowell’s Newspaper Dictionary was less complete thau that of Mr. North for the census. Rowell, 1 his edition of 1880, gave 9,723 periodicals, and 843 dailies, That is to say the fig- ures of the census were more than 16 per cent over Rowell’s figures for the total of publications, and more than 15 r cent over Rowell for the number of alies, This year Rowell’s Directory men- tions not less than 16,319 papers printed in the United States, including 1,404 dailies. I1f the deficiencies of his enumeration count in the same propor- tion as they did in 1880, as compared with Prof, North’s enumeration for the last census, the number of periodicals issued in the United States to-day is not far from 19,000, und the number of daily newspapers not far from 1,700, e ——— Beware of frauas.

Chicago Tr|hu'ne: “There are iustas many republicans in Towa as there ever were,” gaid ex-Governor Stone, who was on his way back t Washington after having been ' in fowa at the elec- tion. *“The issud on which the republi- cans were defoated was prohibition. The people of Towa are not satisfiod with the present liquor law, I believe if the ro- publican party persist in maintaining the present prohibitory legislation Iowa will become permanently a democratic state. “1 have always been a strict tomper- ance man, and for some years a prohi- bitionist. As governor of lowa I did what I could to forwayd prohibitory log- islation. As a judge I enforced such legislation as was passed. 1 am as strong a temperance man s ever, but I must say that what I have seen of pro- hibition in Towa for the last two years has changed my views on the subject materiall “Prohibition is not enforced in the cities and 1t cannot be enforced there until publie sentiment is changed, The law is oponly violated, Grand juries will not indict. Petit juries will not conviet. A majority of the people of Jowa favor a rigid supervision of the liquor traffic, but they do not favor pro- }ll; ition which doesn’t in the least pro- hibit. ‘‘What I believe should be done, and what I believe will be done by the leg- islature this winter, is to enacta law giving local option to cities of the first and second class, Iix the minimum liconse at a high figure and let the cities regulate the business. In the small towns and in the country I think ]n-ohilntinn should bs continued. Thc‘y have @ public sentiment there which enforces the law. Where tho law can be enfoiced it has done a great deal of good, but where it is not enforced it lr:crminl_v is worse than what we had be- ore. “There were probably other causes which contributed to the resultof the election. I hear it said that the slow- nessof the president in making polit- ical appointments had something to do with it. I do not betieve it did in Towa —it may have done so in Ohio. “There isn't the slightest doubt Alli- son will be returned to tho senate. It would bo a_national misfortune if he were not. I have had many democratic senators say to me that they would sin- cerely rogret it if he werenot returned; that Fowu had no man who could fill his 0, he will go back to the senate, *“Yes, I’'m now assistant land commis- sioner of the United States. I was act- ing land commissioner all summer, and until the president, for some reason known only to bimseli, appointed some one over me. The west is greatly pleased with the way the land office is conducted under 'ropublican hands. They well may be, Tor the records of the office show the difference in the management. The office 18 now issuin, about 2,500 putents & week against 4 under Spark’s management. This is brought about by doing away with red tape rules; which’ only serve to retard - business.” HE TURNED AN ASHEN GRAY. Headkeeper Byrne's Account of a Col- ored Man's Eright at the Zoo. Headkeeper P, J. Byrne of the Zoological gardens. tells a remarkable story of the adventures of a colored janitor with a pair of desperate mon- keys at the gardens tast Thursday, says the Philadelphia Press. “That day,” he said yesterday, ‘“‘we received a consignment of three black- headed spider monkeys of rare species. The little fellows look like diminutive Africans of the human species. They have long legs and four foot tails. They use the tails with as much facility as their arms. They grab hold of every- thing with them, and will swing at the end of them by the hour. There are two compartments at the end of the main cage in the monkey house, where the rare specimens are caged. Into one of these the spider monkoys were placed. Their neighbors in the big cage were eying the newcomers curiously. Amon, the former were the two red-heade Rhesus macoque monkeys who became famous some time ago by whipping John L. Sullivan in the same cage. They are both desperate characters and are absolute monarchs in the cage. They took up their position near the cage of the spider monkeys. “In a short vime their opportunity came. One of the new-cowers poked his tail toward the red-headed rasculs #nd it was immediately grabbed. Chey both began pulling away for dear hife. and one of them attempted to chew off the end of the tail, while the poor little victim's screams could be heard for a block. Several keepers ran to the res- cue and the tail was saved. I immedi- ately decided that the red-headed mon- keys should be removed, and Keepers Manley, Harvison, Ford, McCader and Floyd “were detailed to capture them. They entered the cage with ladders and bags and nets attached to long poles. They were immediately at- tacked by the red-headed monkeys, but the latter were beaten off, but eluded every cast of the bags and nets. They took refuge on a big cross-beam and the men raised a ladder and then called for some one to hold it. 4T glanced out of the window and saw Janitor George Coleman passing, and George is as black as the ace of spades. I hailed him and told him to enter the cage and hold the ladaer. He started to comply by raising the sliding door and inserting about half ot his body. At that instant he was seen by one of the red-headed monkeys. The recognition was mutual. With a wild yell the monkey BpmnF from his perch for Cole- man and the latter, with an answerin, shriek, jumped backward and foll, hal fainting, on the floor, When we picked him up we hardly knew him. His black skin was actually''#ishen 1n color, and his black, woolly hair seemed turning white. He was‘cirried to the Penn mansion and revived with hartshorn, but he was unablé to return to work. He was sent home," On the way he met several friends who did not recognize him, When he etifered his home his wife screnmed and almost swooned. She took him for a ghost. He returned to work to-day. (His color is normal again, but he is still nervous. ‘*After a chase of; forty-five minutes the monkey was hguled out of the coal pile. But he was nolovger a red-headed monkey. *‘He had been transformed into a blaclk, ‘scoty’ monkey, He was locked up in an iron cage. and there he stays until the day of his death. These two desperate scoundrels have killed six monkeys since they have been in the garden, but I think they have com- mitted their last murder, in this garden at least,” — Nothing Mysterious, Some people cannot understand what causes their hands and face to chap, when they insist on using soaps made from poisonous greuses and compounds.
