The musical programme was finished by a beautiful duet by the Messrs. Walter and Lou Dale of Omaha.

Flick- inger mace an address in which he paid Rev. Mr. Mackay many high compliments for the active part which he had taken in every pub. lic enterprise, and especially for the way in which he had brought about the organization of the Commercial Pilgrims through a ser- wou preached to the drummers about three months ugo.

War on Superintendent James Ready to Break Out Again, There was some very sprightly caucussing done yesterday by members of the board of caueation. The election of teachers and of superin dent of schools will oceur tomor - row night, and the James and anti-James factions were in_closo consultation« for sev- eral bours during the aftoruoon. The friends of Superintendent James claimed that they bud eight votes that they could buak ou, but the anti-James wing of the board also claimed cight. A there are but fifteen members of the board one or the othier side must have been leauing upon o broken o badly bent reed. There is alsoa Couoyer and an anti-Con- oyer purty. ‘Therc ave others who aspire to the office of secrctary to the board, and al- though tho tion” of secretary does not come until Decemver, the lines are already being drawn, Most of the James men are anti-Conoyer men, so that the relations beween Superin- tendent James and Secrecary Conover are not the most hatmonious in the world. Mr. James scomed to be looking upon the affair with the utmost sereuity. Mr. Conoyor wus domg some very energetic hustling y estor- day afternoon, Whether he was intarested altogother on his 0wn account or partially on account of Mr. Bloss of Kansas City, who is un applicant for- tne posi tion of supTintendent, could - mot be definitely learned, but hé was ovidently much interested in. matters outside of onrd rooms and in the vicinity of the rooms where a spirited caucus was ia pro- T0TTES crIe 1t Young theologian Studies Them and Goes In<ane, New Havey, Conn., June 27.—Tne theorics of Licutenant Totten, who is endeay- oring to convince pepple thuv the world will ond within the present year, have alveady tuken root with a disastrous result. Yester. day Rev. Frank Stevens, a brilliant young minister who has been taking o post graduate course at the Yale divinity school, was com mitted to the Hartford insane retreat, a hope- less maniae. M. Stevens was the most brit liaut mau in his class in the theological school und won a scholarship which eutitied him to a loug course of study in Europe. Before going he determined 1o take a year more hero und fell in with Lieatenant " Totten, with whom he soon oecame very iutimate, It Wis not long before the voung minister was the most enthusiasticadmirer of the nited States army o er, and he shortly became the most sincere discivle of the dushing Totten's millenium theory. ‘The proximity of tho world's end wus tod much for his braio and he slowly but surely lost his once splendid mind. Mr. Steveus' insun ity has taken t form that he is the Re déemer whom Lieutenant Totten predicts will agdain be on the earth this ade. He has been stationed in a fine pulpit ut South ington, Conn., but last week was called to Brooklyn to supply u pulpit there. While on the way his wife discovered the first symp- toms of the terrible calamity and at ¢ took measures to discover what she feare but dreaded to kuow, It took but little in from | | vestigation of the tamily physicians to show that the once fice mind ‘was destroyed.

Green New York, but ngw jn_Cincinnaty, says that heis a “marked wdn)! and that three men have been murdered within a short time under circumstanaustwhich strongly iudicate that Mr, Green was ‘the intended victim and escaped throuch mistakon identity. A reporter found the wife of Green yester- day afternoon at 64 East Oune Hundred and | Sixth stroet. Aftor cousidorable reluctance | Mrs. Green admitted that her husband about eleven months ago had had some trouble with some society and since then ho had been trav- eling. Mrs, Green had the appearanceof a per son who was constantly hurassed with some great fear and evinced the greatest hesitancy in answering any questions. She said ner husband formerly was “‘an agent,” but six months ago he became an artist. 1t was snid that Mr. Green had the following address printed on his business envelope M. J Gireen Broadway, New York,'! Investigation proves that No. 228 exists wdway. The case in many respects resembles that of Dr. Cronin, Mr. (ireen was one of fifty men who sailed in ING7 n the brigantine in the interest of the Fenians. ¥ he was suspected of being a_spy 1 kept out of all secret societies, reen first became aware that he was being followed when o left Chicago for Cin- ciunati, June 10, where ho secured employ- ment. ' When be left Chicazo he gave the people to understand that his destination was eveland. O the morning of Junc 11, the body of Louis Cadar, a Hungarian,' was found near Chadwick street, Clevelund. Cadur bore a remarkabl resemblance to Green and the fact thut Green was supposed to be | ing Chicago for Cleveland lends additional iuterest to Green's belief that he is a “marked man." The next murder occorred in Cincinnati on June 18, when the body of William Kendell, a weil-known business man, was found the Ohio river. Kendell was murdered just after dark while on his v o his_homo in Newport. Kendell also bore a striking re- semblance to Green, so much o that in the dusk of evening tho two men might easily be mistaken for each other. This murder might indicate that Green had been traced to Ciucinati by his enemies_and was again marked for death, and that Kendell had been mistaken for Green. This belief is further strengthened by the fact that Gheen fre- quently crossed the river, and Kendell was last seen going in that direction. The third death which is strangely con- nectea with Green is that of a man who v 1 dead some time agon Central park. d been near the same place in tho purk the night beforo, and_the d mun bore a strong resemblance to him 'S AFFAIRS. of BARDSLE His Transactions with Glendenning & Co. Pinaverreini, Pa., June 27.—Iu the course of the investigation of the affairs of ex-City Treasurer Bardsley in connection with Glea- denning & Co. the law department has learned that the bankers, who were deposit- ors in the Fourth Street National bank, had, May 22, received a clearing house due bill from that 1stitution for $30,237.5%. About ten ago it was presented by a messenger of the City trust company, who asked t the bill be made pavable to their order instead of Glendenning This request was mado on of Bardsley, who said the due bill was b property and not 'public money. Miss Tatham, a niece of Bardsley, who made the request, suid her uncle wanted to have it transferred this way to the trust company. The demand was refused, and the city solicitor, after investigating the matter, hal abill filed in the court of common pleas ugainst Bardsley, his wife and nicce, the Fourth Street National bauk, Glendenning & Co. and the City trust comdany. The in- junction asks that the Fourth Stréet bank bo restrained from paving the bill and that Bardsley, bis_wife and_niece be restrained from negotiating it, and compelling _them to transter it to_the city authorities. It is also asked that Glendenning & Co. be compelled to explmn the transactions which led to Bardsley getting the due bill. Judge Gordon and Presiding Judge Fin- letter todny banded down two confiicting opinions in relation to the right of the city to claim the property of the Bradford mills and to continue the injunction restraining John and James Dobson from selling the Bradfora mills uuder a judgment for §173.000 confessed by the Bradford mills to the Dob! sous at the instance of John Bardsley in order to protect the Dobsons against liabili- ties incurred as sureties for Bardsley as city treasurer, Judge Gordon stated that on the motion to dissolve the mjunction in the case of the city against John ana James Dobson and the Bradford mills the court was divided in its opinion, and that uccording to the ordinary rules of practice the preliminary injunetion granted by the court ot the fillgz of the bill would fall. The bill, however, was not dis- missed, but would pass through the court aud be heard accoraing to the usual routine in such cases and that the full ceurt m make another decision wheu the case came up for final he Investigation of - THE NAVAJ S INDIANS, Engaging in tie We But Not Going 1o W Aunvquerque, N M., June 27.—The alarm- ing reports that huve becn sout out concern- ing the Indian troudic on the Navajo reserva- tion are much wore sensational thun the facts would warrant.
