| ) J wsucceeding one seemingly more perfect than the preceding, the enthusiasm of the people was brought to a high pitch. Appreciation was shown In every concelvable manner, from the cheoring of the overexub:rant to the | silent look of pleasure and satisfaction of the more conservative, but none the lesy appre- clative people. The splendid bands of the state did much to add to the pleasure of the occcasion, and they were all warmly ap- plauded along the line of march. The floats were all very heavy and were moved slowly, but not too slowly to suit the people, who found pleasure in feasting upon each sep. arate representation as long as possible. It was over ar. hour from the time the parade started from the den befors it rounded the corner in front of the reviewing stand at the corner of Bighteenth and Farnam The following 13 a description of the twen- ty-one floats as they appeared in the parade IT WAS A NEBRASKA PRODUCT. Tt was almost 9 o'clock when the final marching order was given and the parede started. The platoon of mounted police cleared the way and the Second Infantry band, in dress parade regalia, led (he pro- cession proper, The purely Nebraska featire of the flon spoke for itself. The banner carrier furnished the information that the float represented a Nebraska Corn Fed.” The banner was at fault in the respect that it was a literal corn- fed, instead of a representation, On a neatly decorated float, inclosed in a flower entwined pen, stood a monster specimen of beef on the hoof and very much alive. It had the high- sounding name of Boeuf Gras and represented the fatted ox selected for the sacrificial cere- monies. It was surrounded by the royal ex- ecutioners and two members of the royal household, in leather jerkins and armed with formidable lances. ANNOUNCED THE FEAST. Following the sacrificial representation came the Third Regiment band of Arapahoe, introducing the second float, which gave the subject of the display prepared by the faith- ful followers of the king, Ar-Sar-Ben. It represented a swamp where frogs, beetles and small insects abounded. Standing in a bunch of twigs, above the barren limbs of a dead and parily burned tree, was a figure, half butterfly and half lnp, of enormous size, holding open an immense volume, across the two pages of which were inscribed these words: “The Knights of Ar-Sar-Ben cele- brate the feast of Mondamin.” The float was rich in colors. AK-SAR-BEN, THE KING. As the second float passed between the dense rows of spectators the people caught their first glimpse of Ak-Sar-Ben, King of Quivera. A princely personage, indeed, he appeared, and the crowd gave him welcome all along the line of march, He was seated on a jeweled throne in the snape of an im- mense crown, dotted with magnificent gems and surmounted by a bed of roses, which wera pressed by the kingly feet. Eight pages, costumed in silks of bright colors, were seated between lmmense roses at the base of the throne, and beneath them ap- peared new splendors of priceless jewels and costly settings. THI2 HARVEST FESTIVAL. The Harvest Festival was represented by the third float. This seemed to be a corner from a beautiful garden, where gorgeous flowers and luscious fruits invited the eye and taste. Over all soared two mammoth butterfiies, and between their outstretched wings rode the prince and princess of the festival. The prince was robed in satin of #uch a hue as is seen in a May day sky and the princess was radiant In a flowing gown of purest white. Six handsome women, at- tended by a grotesque little page, surrounded the float, and their graceful robes added per- fection fo the picture. MONDAMIN'S CASTLE. The fourth fleat was of a more striking though of a less poetic character. Here was seen the Castle of Mondamin, where Mon- damin’s queen sat upon the highest turret. The castle was an excellent repreduction of the old medlaeval structure, and it seemed that the fair queen was an unwilling cap- tive. Her hands were chained and her countenance was expressive of despair. Beneath the castle and peering out from the sides were two desperate looking tyrants, whose hands and the huge knives they earried were smeared with blood. Two gal- lant cavaliers in gorgeous apparel stood at the head of the float, while between them was a hideous dragon. Under the dragon’s claws were the urns and trays of gold and silver and the jeweled necklaces of Mon- damin’s gueen. MONDAMIN BANISHES THE INSECTS. On the fifth float Mondamin was seen ban- dshing Dhis arch enemles, the insects, Two wise prophets assisted Mondamin in the per- formance of this imporiant task by reading the stories of the leaves. Covering the entire float were flowers, fruit and forest leaves, while high above the center were four in- sects holding aloft substantial evidences of vegetation. Following this float marched the First In- fantry band of Omaha. WAR OF THE ELEMENTS. The War of the Elements was represented by the sixth float. On the front of the float were fountalns of water that rose to a con- siderable height, while mermaids with their forms helf concealed and with veiled faces appeared here and there. At the back, imme- diately behind the water, lurid flames shot high into the air. In the midst of them stood a male figure, a veritable salamander. The result of this conflict between fire and water was seen In the leaves of corn and other signs of vegetation which came after the flames. The famous Pawnee City Military band followed the sixth float. SAMSON'S ARRIVAL IN OMAHA. The seventh float gave a good idea of Sam- son’s arrival in Omaba. Samson, elegantly arraycd, stood between two immense columns, which were beautitully decorated with ivy, each column suoporting a large vase of flowers. Six female statues held a chain that enclosed the flgures on the float. Four cornucoplas, emblems of abundance, reached out from the vases and added to the at- tractiveness of the floral display. The en- .rance to the long fl'ght of steps was guarded by two armed cavaliers, and any attack from the rear was prevented by the presence of two guards there. Then followed the West Point band, the members in their gay uni- forms of red and white. AK-SAR-BEN'S FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH. Ak-Sar-Ben's Fountain of Youth, the eighth float, caused much favorable comment along the line of march. The fountain, which re- minded one of a gorgeous electric fountain, represented jots of water of many colors, rising to aconsiderable height above the basin wherein the water tumbled. Reclin- ing on & royal purple couch near the fountain was one of Ak-Sar-Ben's courtiers surrounded by numerous satellites. At the front of the float two vases of the much worshiped corn surmounted two grand pedestals. A graceful arch at the rear of the float and many potted plants added to the beauty of the scene. WATER WITCH OPENS THE FLOOD GATES FOR NEBRASKA, A wild wave of water which poured In a glgantic flood through the floodgates upon the parched fields of Nebraska was the chariot of the water witch, who had finally overcome and conquered drouth, after a struggle of more than a year. On the very crest of the overtopping wave was seated the witch in flowing, flimsy, fleecy veils of white, in which her luxuriant, long black tresses were entangled. Everywhere about her the greenish flood was rapidly flowing b rushing streams, even over the guards and embattlements of the floodgates. The mouths of the huge golden watchdogs, which guarded the eatrance, were gushing forth water. Beforo this terrific mass, preguant With prosperity, a haif dozen courtiers of the court of Mondamin were ficeing for safety, while yet they gazed over their shoulders and welcomed on the witch with her prec- fous gift. The courtiers were arrayed in rich court costumes of different colors and hues. 'The floodgates, with claborate golden balustrades and crowned with marble urns filled with flowers, presented an elaborate appearance In their setting of green water. GRAND VIZIER HERALDS THE RETURN OF PROSPERITY. The Anelent Order of United Workmen Band escorted the grand vizier of the court, who was accompanied by his eonsort, who Eeralded In joyous tones the return of pros- ity to the sturdy and indomitable sons of ebraska. The moble twain were seated on | elaborate thrones, beveath a glittering crown | of gold. Gronped ;:«m the Toval seat were | eight members of the woveroign's court, eonr- tlers, warriors and jesiers, who annonaced fn bearing and by volce the gl tidings they were bringing. An additional puir of Beralds, stlent, but impressive, wora two Suge fars of golden corn. supportsd by ta'l columns, about which fluticred a number of Deavtiful banncrs, upheld by heavily armed ‘warrfors stationed in the rear of th rone. ‘The beauty of the seene was Wirbly cnhanesd W the rich and glittering costam-s of (he | court attendants and the fine drapery and elegant crests in which it was framed. QUEEN AND THE ROSE FAIRY. Another court soon followed, the private garden of the queen, in which her majesty and her maids of honor were assembled. At the entrance to the garden, just sprung from the center of a blushing and ripe rose, flut- tered the rose queen in fleccy raiment, hand- Ing one of her jewels, a rose, to the qu Within the gilded garden were grouped the women of the court, gathering flowers from the large marble vases by which they were surrotinded. A peacock of brilliant plumage was standing among them, and at their sides were a number of slim hounds. The five court women were attired in rich gowns of velvet of different hues, besprinkled with golden flowers. The court dress of the queen was of red, trimmed with white fur. An equally gorgeous page held the one and of her long white veill. This float was preeeded by the North Platte band. QUIVERA FAIRI BEFORE AK-SAR-BEN. A fitting companion plece was the scene which: followed, another court scene, but one of dignity, for King Ak-Sar-Ben was adminis- tering justice to one of his subjecis. He was seated on a truly regal throne, the open lip of a huge white lily, with his consort be- side him. About them were lomnging a num- ber of Quivera fairies, alight with their glit- tering ralment and spangles, among them the resplendent court fool, in order not to make the scene too severe in the time of Joy. In the center and before the throne was the humble subject, who poured forth his griev- ances, while the king lent graclous ear. The choice bit of fairyland was embowered in a mass of beautiful flowers, REVELRIES OF THE COURT. The following scene was a contrast. The court was given over to joy unbounded and mirth flowed fast. Out of four vases, one at either corner, arose stalks of roses, lilies and other flowers to meet overhead and form a beautiful bower, beneath which the revel- ries were occurring. Music for the revels was furnished by a harpist, who sat in front with his fvy-covered instrument in his lap. A bugler in the rear was bidding welcome to all. Directly beneath the flowering roof a number of the members of the court were Tounging in gay abandon, a woman, two pages and a courtler, young in years, who alter- nately held aloft and quaffed from a golden goblet, They were all arrayed in splendid holiday attire, for they were wildly joyous over the return of their king. All about were strewn fruits and flowers of every de- seription, specimens of the delicate gifts the king is bringing with him. AK-SAR-BEN'S COUNSELOR. King Ak-Sar-Ben's counselor, who followed, smiled uwpon these revels. He was a most wise owl, and his habitation was in the heart of the oak, as wise as he. From the door of his lvy-covered residence he thrust his brown coat and bowed right and left, and cut such capers as were not expected from a counselor of the king, and an owl at that. In the roots at the foot of the old oak lay a poor shep- herd, fast asleep, while directly in front of him danced a pair of wipged creatures in high glee at the figure the wise counselor was cutting. All about was a tangled mass of flowers and vines, which helped to form a true forest picture. LORD OF THE EXCHEQUER. Following the float of Ak-Sar-Ben's coun- selor, with the Ancient Order of United Workmen band leading, came that of his honor, the Lord of the Exchequer. It formed a beautiful spectacle as it slowly wound its way through the mass of humanity that walled it in on either hand. High up on a dias of maroon and gold sat his lordship, with his plebeian hirelings, the sub-secre- taries, at his feet. Gigantic green lizards menaced the subjects on the corners of the float and at his back a huge reptile kept guard over the royal treasures. Down the sides of the throne a golden shower of shin- ing ducats spread themselves like a cascade of fabulous wealth. As the float moved be- neath the glancing rays of the street lamps that swung overhead, the money scattered 80 lavishly flashed and sparkled like count- less treasures in the caverns of Monte Cristo. Bach glancing ray of the swinging brilliants above seemed to dance over the gorgeous costumes and plck out each parti- cle of silver and gold that made up the en- semble. The flickering lamps of the torch bearers who followed on both sides cast deep shadows around the throne and threw into bas rellef the two silver statues on the staircase, while the imps of darkness who scattered coin from the royal purses grimaced gleefully at their own lavish prodi- gality. Swinging from side to side, to the steady tramp of the red and white covered horses, his lordship bowing gracefully in acknowledgment to the applause of htou- sands of admirers, this most important per- sonage moved majestically along the crowded thoroughfares. At every corner he was hailed with delight by the crowds. Was he not the officlal who had made possible this magnificent pageant? Surely it was he who paid for it all, and now that he could glance over his handiwork from a lofty perch in its midst, it was no more than right that he should receive the praise that was his due. The people seemed to think so, at any rate, and wherever he appeared the Lord of the Exchequer and his retainers were cheered to the echo. AK-SAR-BEN IN THE CHRYSALIS STATE. The sixteenth float disclosed an unusual and mirthful sight. To admiring thousands, Ak- Sar-Ben was shown in his chrysalis stste Possessed of an abnormally develo) head, Ak-Sar-Ben as a chrysalis was sean reclining in a royal cradle, decked with the sumptuous trapping of a prince's couch. The red feai- ures of the infant, with head so swellen that it might more properly have Leuen fitted 10 a glant's body, lay peacefuily bick on his pillow. He had no cause for diquiel band of sedulously faithful mail: atiended to his wants. At his f two, and a like number ai his head, most preclous, as it appeared to be the most promising, portion of ihe youthful Ak-Ser- Ben—a sort of portentious sign of what ni'ght be exoceted of him when his body had at- tained strength to exccute the young ideas which the youth with a head should cherish. Hundreds of rare and beautiful flowers lay scattered profusely about the bed-chamber of the young prince. It appeared like a wild garden, overrun with the choicest of nature’s floral offerings. Even the cradle and the large chair were deeply strewn with flowers and on the velvet carpet they lay desp, send- ing out an aromatic odor to lull the senaes of the youthful prodigy. Under such condi- tions how could his rest be but peaceful. Four faithful watchers, clad in white and purple robes, attended his slumbers, their gauzy wings denoting their celestial char- acter. A beautiful woman standing beside a huge arm chair, which was stationed at the head of the cradle, held a harp to lull the slumbers of Ar-Sar-Ben as the chrysalls, while he rode In state, drawn by white ca- parisoned horses. Enormous black cats stood at the corners of the ch#uber and by their threatening aspect kept away all would-be intruders, AT THE SHRINE OF MONDAMIN. A scene of rare beauty was displayed upon the float entitled At the Shrine of Mondamin. This float occupled the seventeenth place in the parade and treated of a nautical subject in a highly gratifying manner. The name of the float sufficiently indicated what might be expected when viewing the sacred precinets of the venerable god In whose honor the great feast had been called among the faith- ful subjects of this remowned prinee. The god Mondamin was standing upon the ‘sea ore. His head was clothed with abundanc: of snow-white locks of hair and a long white beard floated fn the wind. He wa clad in a long robe of white, eminently befit- ting the character for moderation and wis- dom for which this god was renowned. The sceme with which he was sorrounded was one to evoke respect and veneration., Flowers of the most wonderful pattern and construction reared their forms from the waters, while strange and symmetrical sea piants circled round and above the head of Mondamin. Four twmense flowers, long and tubular In form, and in character resembling a lly, rose from either corner, while a multitude of smaller plants of a similar construction encirclad the base of the premontory on which Mondamin and his train stood. His attendants were two beautiful women, clothed in white and bearing musical iustruments. His queen stcod by his side; bebind him were the angelie harpists. A boat was about te touch the shore. It contained a stranger, some new arrival who had just eome to the shrine. His graceful craft was just about to touch the shores of the sacred realm when he bid hail to the venerable form before him. Yet the stranger was ne ordinary man, but dcnubtless o traveler from some distant land, as his purple robes of royalty betokensd, sid the kolden girdle about his waist. The vary- ing lights of the aitendants made the Somt a changing scene of beauty. AK EAR-BEN'S FISHERY, A part of old Neptuue's ocoun was pled KING | and played the Tecumseh band, adding coor | | forest to Dunsinane the leaves of the lofty | high with its waves of greem, crosted with white and hauled along to show Ak-Sar- Ben's Fishery. scales, poked -their brine at the four corners b:low, wh'le above two huge whales crossed th:mse'ves to biar with the waves the burden of a boat of sea palm leaves, bearing four of the king's counts, the chief of whom sicered the craft Between this and the next floit mareied to the parade with uniform of scirlet cost and white pantaioons. It was a full band and furnished some of the bast music in ihe procession. MONDAMIN PREPARING THE FEAST. The effsct of the float represent'ng Mon- damin preparing his feast was tremendous, and as it moved along cheer after cheos went up. The most prominent flzure was that representing Mondamin. It was of Cyclop-an proportions, though seated, and | was niked to the waist. The giant face with black beard showed Intense delight at | hat was going on fn the mammoth golden | cau'dron bfore it, in which the essentials | of tho feast were belug boiled and stirred with an_fmmense stick held in the giant's | hand. Even pople wit could smell the swest odor emanating from | the deightfully wholecome and mag- nanimous pot and the mostriis | of the Mondamin's huge nose sesmed to dilate in ecstasy at the scene of the great meal he was preparing. Bright flame leaped from around the kettle and it up the face of the pleasant and beignant monster to whom the people took so kindly. One of the most weird and grotesque pictures in the parade was the sight of the good old fellow’s back as the float jolted over the granite pavement down the street. His mat of black hair could be seen for blocks and his fat back was still shaking from his chuckle when it disappeared from view. ENCHANTED FOREST. Without an intervening division the “En- chanted Forest” moved along like Birnam palms waving and quivering over eight of the denizens of the bewitching wood, with the Great Mufti proclaiming peace, plenty and prosperity to all. The sentiment caused an approving shout from the thousands whose eyes were on the pretty spectacle. Litting their heads beneath the shadow of the higher follage, were fruit, flowers and vines of Eden beauty, the sprite of the whole being an immense white hare standing on his hinders, WELCOMED THE KING. As the head of the parade reached the re- viewing stand on Eighteeath street, opposite the city hall, the float on which rode the king of Quivera halted and Ak-Sar-Ben rose and faced the stand. He was greeted with a volley of cheers, amid which Mayor Bemis rose to welcome him to the city. After the applause had subsided the mayor said: ““Most Mighty Potentate: The city of Omaha welcomes the Teturn of Ak-Sar-Ben, king of Quivera, to the domain that his predecessor discovered and that has come to be so pros- perous and happy. In doing %o we feel that the influence of that great spirit, whose dauntless courage sought out the sofl of Nebraska while it was yet a part of the kingdom of Quivera, has left its impress here, and will stimulate our trade and com- merce, 50 that we shall keep step with the progress of the age; and sinee your royal highness has signified his intention of visit- ing these, his royal subjects, every year at the time of the Feast of Mondamin, and while our state fair is in session, I, as the ruler of this city, in behalf of our citizens, hereby surrender the key of the city to your care and keeping, and hope that your royal highness may not only be able to unlock all the storehouses of royal hospitality, but that this key will unlock the hearts and minds of these people and open them to a broader and higher conception of true citi- zenship and patriotic loyalty to the best in- terests, not only of our great and growing metropolis, but to the state at large.” KING RECEIVES THE KEYS. The king acknowledged the greeting briefly, but appropriately. He said: “The king of Quivera accepts this token of friendship ana loyalty and hopes that the hearts and minds which 1t unlocks will follow in the footsteps of Mondamin. ~ Ak-Sar-Ben set foot on Ne- braska soil 200 years ago and in acknowledg- ment of these keys, he promises continued prosperity, not only in Omaha, but to the state at large. This is a patriotic ‘move- ment. It means more to the people of this state than any of you Imagine.” Mayor Bemis then handed the bunch of golden keys to acting Chief of Police Sig- wart, who passed them to Ak-Sar-Ben. The king waved them before the throng and once more bowing in acknowledgment, he gave the command to march and the long line of floats moved on. As each passed the re- viewing stand, it was halted for a moment, while the search light lent additional luster to its gorgeous colors. Each new revelation was greeted with enthusiastic applause and finally the last of Ak-Sar-Ben's retainers passed on. After the procession had passed the re- viewing stand it turned at Douglas streel and proceeded to Sictesnth, go'ng no-th to Cuming street, and then over to Ninatesnth street. - As the last float passed on its way toward the Coliseum it was attended by a dense throng of pedestrians. At Nineteenth and Charles the parade crossed to Twentieth street. At 11:05 the last float had drawn up at the Coliseum to await its turn at d's- mounting the we'rd figures, which had ridden for three hour: TRACED THE ARMS TO THE Trial of the Alleged Fillibusters Con- tinued at Wilmington, WILMINGTON, Del., Seot. 19.—The trial of the alleged Cuban filibusters in the district court Yhis morning began with the proof of the receipt for freight on account of the boxes of arms captured when the men were cap- tured. The boxes were shipped from Phila- delphia to Wilmington. The receipted freight bill was offered in evidence and the defense, after objecting to the admission, noted an ex- ception. Henry Seymour, one of the travel- ing detcctives, testified that on August 28 he was instructed to follow a wagon from Sixth and Arch streets, Philadelphia. He did 0 and it went to the Wilmington steamboat wharf. The boxes were taken to De Soto's store and later one of Warner's wagons came and took the boxes to the wharf. Seymour stood op the whart and saw the men load them on the tug Taurus. Eugene Scheurle, another Pinkerton de- tective, testified to shadowing Pabio Esteriz and Francisco Navarro, and the two came to Wilmington on a train, the detective coming on the same train. Upon arriving in this city they went to De Soto's store and loafed around there until midnight when with some others they walked over to King strcet and from there to the wharf. Edwin 8. Gaylor, superintendent of Pinkerton's detective agency, then told about seeing the boxes taken to the steamboat wharf. District Attorney Vandegrift here asked for an adjournment until tomorrow as he had re- | ceived some papers written in Spanish and desired fo have them translated. Judge Wales agreed and the trial went over antil tomerrow morning. TUGS. ol SR el Creditors Attach the Court House, WICHITA, Kan.

Their appearance was the signal for rencwed shouts of “'V.ve Ru:je’ President Faure, accompanied by M. R bot minister of war, M.

LONDON, Sept. 19.—The Times corre- spondent at Mirecourtix, in a long dispatch today, points out the significance of the pres- ence of Prince Lobanoff, the Russian minis- ter for foreign affairs, and General Dragomi- roft at the French army maneuvers. The correspondent says that without exaggeration Czar Nicholas commands the armles of bot! France and Russia. An article which will be published in the Times tomorrow from its Paris co-respondent, discussing the French army maneuvers, says: “If during the last twenty-five years the Vosges have not seen such a spectacle as has Just been concluded it is becanse under the Teign of Prince Bismarck the distrust and suspicious policy of Germany would not have acquiesced in such an event. There was no protest today and the two nations are on a footing of absolute equality. This equality, recovered by France and recognized by Ger- many, is not one of the least reissuring symploms for the lovers of peace throughout the world.” MORE TROUBLE ON THE FRONTIER. New Governor of French Gul lowin Hin Pred ensor. RIO JANEIRO, Sept. 19.—Dispatches from Para state that a French force has landed north of Amapa and has blockaded Counani, close to where the fighting occurred last May. Governor Cabral, who was prominent in the former fighting, Is preparing to resist the French. The trouble in the frontier dis- trict between Brazil and French Guiana has given rise to a good deal of bitter contro- versy between the two governments. The Brazilian governor arrested a Frenchman named Trajane in the region which is in dispute between the two countries. The French governor of Guiana, Charvein, organ- ized an expedition to pu and rescue Trajane. Th Captain Tunier, was unsuccessful, its leader and four marines being killed. The French governor, Charvefn, was recalled to Frane for having organized the expedition without the authority of the colonfal office and his successor, M. de Lamothe, formerly gov ernor of Senegal, was sent out with instruc tions to pacify the region by peaceful meas- ures. The news above looks as though he had decided peace measures to be unavailing and was about to reopen his predecessor's armed controversy with Governor Cabral. This re- gion s swarming with adventurers seeking gold, and mob law is the only appeal for Qifferences. Counani was the location of a small French settlement, and it was here tkat Governor Cabral and 500 followers cap- tured Trajane, the leading colonist, and brought him to Amapa. Other expeditions acted against French miners in varlous parts of the territory. na Fol- ENGLAND SOU DS A Fears o Return to High Tariff in the United States.

A Man Suffocated in a Whirlpool of Grain. As in a strong whirlpool, Bartley Hynes of Buffalo was caught in a vortex of grain and drawn beneath the surface in the twinkling of an eye. He died from suffocation at the bot- tom of a sea-of wheat. Everybody who Is acquainted around the docks, says the Buffalo Express, knew old Bartley Hynes. He was a veteran scooper, having becn in the business for over twenty years. Aside from his long employment on the docks, he was known because of his rela- tionship to young Bartley Hynes, his nephew, who was still more widely known as “the strong man of the dockx ' This young man was one of the best known and cleverest wrestlers in this part of the country some years ago, and he atterward served on the po- lice force for a time. He is over six foet tal and of magnificent physique, and his feats of strength wore renowned. The older Hynes met his death at 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon, and the manner of it was the scle topic of the talk that was indulged In by wharfmen. For a long time he has been employed at the City elevator, and he was working for this elevator when he was killed. A vessel had arrived with a heavy cargo of grain. As soon as it was moored at tie City elevator dock preparations were begun for its unloading. The leg of the e evator was inserted into the hold of the boat, the machinery was set in motion and the power- ful sucticn which draws the grain up through the wocden box called the leg into the ele- vator proper began to make a hole in the great mass of wheat below decks. It was but a few seconds after the ele- vating began when Hynes leaped into the hold of the boat to trim the grain up to the point where the suction caught it. It was argued that a man of his long experience should { have known better than to Jump in where he did. There was plenty of room in front of tho elevator leg, but Le leaped in behind it. No sooner had he struck the grain than he was caught in the vortex about the mouth of the suction-pipe and he was drawn be- neath the surface. In less time than it takes to tell it ho was completely submerged. The hold was eighteen feet deep and held about twelve feet of grain. The sudden disappearance of the scooper s0 startled his fellow workers that for a mo- ment they were speechless and motionless. Then, recovering their seuses, they realized that he would be smothered to death unless speedily extrieated, and hastily set about tc reseuo him, The machinery was stopped and with it the suction. But it was too late. The suc- tion had done its work so rapidly that nothing could have saved the mun unless he could have caught hold of some support in his descent, and there was none at hand. It took twenty-five minutes for the whole gang of scoopers to dig the body out. It was found at the bottom of the hold, near the mouth of the spout or leg. When at last it was hauled up on deck, the mouth, cpened as in gasping, and the eyes, with their fright enad stare, told the tale of suffocation. Hynes was 48 years old and lived at Elk street. He leaves a widow and severa children.

Gretna Green simply owes Its celebrity to its position, says the Pall Mall Magazine. By the Scotch ww a couple who declare themselves husband and wife in the presence of two witnesses are legally married. Similar firregular marriages were sol- emnized in England up till 1763, when Lord | Hardwicke's act put an end to them and forced young couples anxlons to avold pater- nal authority to fly across the border. Gretna Green was the first place in (he | northern kingdom reached by fugitives from | the south. ‘The services of anything in the shape of a parson were, of course, quite unnecessary, but strangers arriving suddenly in an unknown district often found it difficult to secure_wit- | nesses till an inhabitant of Gretna Green coneeived the lucky notion of siarting a kind of matrimonial office, where all facllitios could be found—of course, on payment of a certain fee. Some mention Seott as the originator of this happy idea, others claim tae homor for an old soldier called Gordun; but it is cer- tain that the profession only began to flourish when it was adopted by Joseph Paisley, who first lived in Gretna Green opposite the church, and afterward removed to Spring- field. He was originally a tobacconist and emuggler, and scems himself to have greatly patronized the latter trade, for he regularly drank two bottles of brandy daily up to his death in 1818, As no qualifications were required for the marrying business he had many imitators. His most formidable rival, David Lang, set up at Springfield in 1792, after a career of much adventure. He was a native of Gretna, but went in early youth to Lancashire as a draper and peddler, and was there kidnapped by the pressgang and forced to serve in the navy. The ship in which he salled was boarded | and taken by Paul Jones, the pirate, but Lang managed to escape and returned to his native place. Elliot, a stage coach driver, married Paisley's granddaughter, and thus succeeded to that branch of the profession; and Simon Lang, a weaver, followed his father, David, and was in turn replaced by his son, the local postman, who still does what little work in the marrying line is to be had In these de- nerate days, - John Murray, at the Sark toll bar, on the Scoteh side of {he boundary line, was always ready to unite couples who were in a great | hurry, and, with a keen eye to business, he afterward pressed them to put up and rest at the neighboring botel, which he had es- pecially built for their accommodation. Toward the middle of this century the most aristocratic weddings took place at Gretna hall, the old mansion house on the Gretna es- tate, which was bought and turned into an inn by Linton, an ex-valet of Netherby, and at which he himself officiated as landlord and parson. Besides these celebrities there were many persons of less note quite ready to proffer their aid to anybody in need of it Though no cetemony was required, the Gretna priests generally found that the con sciences of their clients were soothed by a short service, and frequently read over them a_ritual slightly resembling that of the Church of England. Sometimes, however, matters were performed in a very primitive manner. Thomas Blythe, who lived at Springfield toward the middle of this century, and did a small trade in what he called the “joining line,” was one of the witneses at a cour of probat> cas», and thus described the solemnization of matrimony as conducted by him: I first asked if they were sir They said they were. le persons. “I then asked ths man: ‘Do you take this woman for your wife?’ He said: ‘Yea.' “I th'n said to the woman: ‘Do you take this man for your lawful husband?’ She said: ‘Yes.' “I then sald: ‘Put on the ring.’ The ring was put on. “I then said: ‘The thing is done; the mar- riage is complete " Marriage licenses were generally given to the woman. In the haleyon days of Gretna about 300 marriages were celebrated yearly Th> fess demanded varied greatly—from 10 shillings to 100 guineas—as most of the Gretna parsons followed the principles frankly avowed by Linton, when he ex- plained that “he cut his cioth to suft hia customers.” Many illustrious names Gretna registers. Lord Cochrane and Lot Deerhurst (the eld-st son of the earl of Coventry) both made whau was known as an “o'er the march” wedding. Lord Burg- hersh, afterward tenth earl of Westmore- land, ‘eloped with Miss Child, the dsughter of a wealthy banker, in 1782, and the grand- child of this couple, Lady Adela Villiers carried on the family trrdition and escaped to Gretna with Captain Ibbecsen in 1845, Great excitement was catred by the sud- den flight of Lady Floreuce Paget, who “hile eneaged to Mr. Chaplin. was married to Lord Hastings at the Sark toll-bar. Divid Lang's greatest exploft was th “foining” of Lord Erskine to Miss Sarah Buck, on_which occasion the lord chan cellor of England made his way to Gretna disguised as an old woman, and was mar- ried in that garb. Th> name of a Bourbon prince of Naples also appears. Lord Brougham's act of 1856 and the intro- appear in tn- duction of the telegraph were more than Gretna Green could survive. Now Gretna Green is only a commonplace village. Even the registers have been removed excep! those begun by Simon Lang and continued by his son and grandson, which may still be scen in Willlam Lang's cottage at Spring field. Murray's books were taken to Carlisle by one of his descendants and perished in the flanes which consumed her cottage, bu those kept by Paisley and Eliot are still in existence, and were recently in the posses- sion of Mrs. Johnstone at Atterly, in Cum berland. Mrs. Armstrong, who lives at about ten miles from Gretna Green, has in herited Linton's registers. They are bound in red morocco, are regarded with grea venerat'on, and have frequently be:n taken to London and solemnly opened in court to decide an important la - KICKED ON A TWO-] Dornock A Wedding Indefinitely n Cigar, The Qiscovery of a cigar in a bridegroom's pocket has cuused the indefinite postpone ment of a marriage ceremony at Omeonta, N. Y. When Frank Parks sought the hand of Miss Jennte Titus in marriage several months ago the young woman consented on condition that Parks, who was an inveterate smoker, should, from that date, discard the use of tobacco in every form. It was a dificult matter for the ardent wooer to take such a pledge, says the New York Herald, but rather than have b sul: denied he destroyed his stock of smoking utensils in the presence of his affianced, and promised the young woman that he would bs a total abstainer in the future. The young pair drove to a neighboring village to have the marriage eeremony per- formed, and as Parks assisted Miss Tiius from the carriage she suddenly spied a cigar in pocket. “What does this mean, Frank?" exclaimed the bride, snatching the cigar and hurling it her face flushed with —1 will tell you all stammered the perplexed triend gave it t> me and I— “No .urther explanation |s necessary the “Drive me home at once and then your way.
