Neville and Prince Iturbide to Meet on the Field of Honor. | NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 5.—A special | to the Recorder from Washington says: | T_be Metropolitan Club is in a fever of ex- | citement. A real auel is to be fought be- | tween two of its conspicuous members. | “Bod” Neville, who gained fame two | years ago by slapping the face of S. 8. Howland at the horse show in New York, | is one of the principals. Prince Iturbide, | the pretended heir apparent to the throne of Mexico, is the other. The trouble arose over a dispute with re- gard to the horsemanship of the two prin- | cipals. Neville, who is a brilliant hunte- man, boasted that he could perform a feat | in leaping that was beyond the capacity of { the Mexican princeling. Iturbide took | issue and challenged Neville to a test. | The two could not come to an agree- | ment as to where the test should take | place. Finally, in anger, Iturbide, placing a glass of water before his antagonist, told | bim to come to an agreement or else to | take water. Still Neville hesitated, where- upon the Prince, growing bolder, called him a “liar and a horsethief.” Neville the next morning sent a chal- lenge to the Prince. Iturbide was equal to the emergency and accepted the chal- | lenge. Friends were brought in, seconds appointed and the duel is now on the boards. The duel will take place, mnless the police interfere, within a few days; just where, the members of the club do not know, except a few who happen to have | been consulted at the time.

NEW HAVEN, Coxx., Nov. 4.—Aseneth Brockway, an eccentric old woman living in the remote South Plains district in Wallingford, died alone Saturday night. She was a sister of Counterfeiter William Brockway. She was known by her maiden name because it was difficult for her neigh- bors to keep track of her other names, in consequence of repeated marriages and diverces.

His Accounts Are AUl Rtght and His Dis- appearance Is a Mystery. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 4—Harry H. Sterling, remittance clerk at the Union National Bank, was granted leave of ab- sence for two weeks, beginning October 15. He left on that date for Gault, where he spent most of his vacation with his friends. He returned home last Monday, saying that he intended to rest before going back to his work in the bank, since which time hehas not been heard from. His accounts are said to be all right. Sterling is 24 years of age, of medium height, with slight mus- tache, dark hair and eyes. His parents live in Helena, Mont., where his father is an attorney. He has lived with his uncle in this city for two years, during which time he has been employed in the Union National Bank. e th g . Sunk in the Mississippi.

MANY FRIENDS IN MOURNING. A Writer Who Endeared Himself to the Masses by His Geatle Disposition. CHICAGO, Irr., Nov. 4.—Eugene Field, poet, journalist and story writer, died at his home at Buena Park early this morn- ing, as the result of heart failure. For some days Mr. Field had been ail- ing, but it was supposed he was suffering from his usual stomach troubles, and no quies will be under the direction of the | Fellowship Ciub. The funeral will take | place Wednesday and the interment will be at Graceland. At Mr. Field’slate residence all was con- | fusion and sadness this morning. The | house itself is a quaint white frame build- | ing, sitting back from the street behind | rows of trees, through which can be | caught a glimpse of the lake. Mr. Field | had moved into this house orly a short | time ago. He had fitted up his new dwell- | ing with great pride, and it was just such | & place as one would expect to find the home of the author of “The Dream Ship.” The sudden shock had prostrated the whole family. Roswell M. Field when seen this morning was able to say but little. “My brother’s death was very sudden,” he said. “No one expected it. Why, only last nightat 12 o’clock he sent a message to Kansas City saying that he would be there later in the week. We never im- agined that his ailing was any more seri- ous than his usual attacks of stomach trouble. «] think my brother’s death was brought on by overworking his nervous system, which resulted in a total collapse. At the | time of his death he was at work on ‘The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac,” which ap- peared in the Chicago Record. Eugene | told me a short time before his death that | he thought this his best work, and it was his intention to have published it in book | form. He was thoroughly wrapped up in | this undertaking and hoped to make it his | most notable literary effort.” THE LATE EUGENE FIELD, [From a photograph by Taber.] serious turn was anticipated. Dr. Frank Reilly, who was<ummoned this morning, pronounced the ueath to have been caused by the formacion of a clot of blood in the heart. Although yesterday Mr. Field was feel- ing so ill that he telegraphed to Kansas v canceling an engagement which he had there for to-night, he sat up until a late hour chatting with Mr. Yenowine of the Milwaukee Illustrated News. Mr. Yenowine was to have accompanied M Field to Kansas City, and had come from Milwaukee for that purpose. The deceased was very cheerful, and the two sat up until a late hour discussing future plans. Shortly before midnight, Mr. Field had a telegram sent to Kansas City saying that he would be able to come later in the week. Upon going to bed Mr. Field did not complain, but during the night Fred Field, the 14-year-old son of the deceased, heard | his father groaning in his sleep. The lad thought nothing of this until near morn- ing the sleeping man groaned more heav- ily than before and then became perfectly still and quiet. Roused by an intuitive dread that something was amiss Fred, or “Daisy,” as the family called him, crept out of bed and awakened his mother and Eugene Field. [From his latest photograph.} aunts. He then went to the room of Mr. Yenowine, who was sleeping in the house, and aroused him. When the family reached the bedside they found that Eugene Field was no more. His body was lying in an easy, natural position; the heat of life had not yet died out, and a tranquil, peaceful ex- pression on his face gave him the appear- ance of having dropped into a gentle slumber. All efforts to arouse him failed, and Dr. Hedges, who was immediately summoned, attributed the death to heart failure. Mr. Field first took to his bed last Thurs- | day. Up to yesterday he had expected to keep his engagement at Kansas City this evening, but last night he told his brother, Roswell M. Field, to telegraph his inability to make the trip and that he would be un- able to give the promised reading in the Kansas City Auditorium. Mr. Field leaves a widow and five chil- dren—two daughters and three sons. The eldest child is Miss May Field, 19 years of ;lg;. and the youngest is scarcely 12 months olc. Among the early callers at the house | Mr. Field was a member of the editorial staff of the Chicago Record, and for the last twelve years has been connected with her the Daily News or Record.

All morning sorrowing neigh- bors kept coming to the bereaved house- hold to offer sympathy and condolence. At a meeting of the Press Club, held at 1 o'clock to-day, a committee was ap- pointed to frame resolutions of condolence and sorrow. Only about sixty-one mem- bers were present, owing to the suddenness of the call. It was decided to hold a gen- eral meeting to-morrow. A pall of sad- ness hung over the meeting. The mem- bers were so overwhelmed with sorrow by the unexpected loss of their friend that the suggestion of Chairman McGovern that re- marks and expressions of sorrow should be postponed until to-morrow was felt to be the sentiment of all present. | NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 4—At a meet- ing of the New York Press Club held to- | night the following telegram was sent to | the widow of Eugene Field by Joseph | Howard Jr., the president: | ‘“The members of the New York Press | Club desire to express their heartfelt sor- row at the sudden death of Eugene Field, and tender their condolence £o his afflicted family.

Field of i this City received a message by wire from Buena Park, Chicago, which read as fol- lows: “Eugene died suddenly this morn- | ing.” Although Eugene Field never lived in San Francisco and visited California but once—some two years ago—he was in no sense a stranger here. His cousin, | Henry K. Field, who had been a com- panion of his boyhood and for whom he | formed a close attachment, had long re- sided here and kept Eugene fairly well vosted on San Francisco topics. Many newspaper men who knew Eugene Field intimately when he worked in St. Joseph, Mo., and others who knew him in Kansas City, Denver and Chicago came to San Francisco, and so the gentle poet had alarge circle of admiring friends in Cali- fornia. As a young reporter in St. Joseph Eugene Field did good work, but his real | worth as a writer was not recognized until he was given wider freedom on the Denver Tribune. Then the merit of his work re- d also contributed to various periodi- i The Gentle Poet Had Many Friends in | pathetic better than Riley could do it him- self. It was in his line to imitate Bill Nye. It was no trick for him to be funnier than Nye, if he wanted to be. Some idea ot Field’s early life may be formed from the following, which he wrote to the Ladies’ Home Journal in January of this year: ‘“‘After our mother’s death the trio of little boys were sent East. It was at that time that our father wrote to Grandma Field that he did not care to have his sons imbued with the superstitions of New England. To this our grandma made answer in these words: ‘Roswell, I do not know what you mean by ‘‘superstitions,” but of one thing you can rest assured, my grandchildren shall be brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.”” Eugene Field was born in Missouri and was 45 vears old September 3 last. He was fitted for college at a private school at Monson, Mass. He went to Columbia Col- lege in Missouri and Knox Colleze, Gales- burg, IIL Eugene Field’s death is a distinct loss to American literature. Only a short time ago he wrote to his cousin that his affairs were in such condition that he could de- vote the time required for doing what he regarded as work of a higher class than he had done. The income from his readings, the sale of his books and the returns from his magazine and daily paper contribu- tions gave him the means for travel and observation, and therefore he resolved to do something to establish for himself a higher place in literature. Field, like others of modest worth, had *‘builded bet- ter than he knew,”” and his verses will live as long as children shall come and go. For example, Julian Hawthorne says that “Little Boy Blue” is not surpassed in the realm of literature for children. LITTLE BOY BLUE. The little toy dog is covered with dust, But sturdy and stanch he stands; And the little toy soldier is red with rust, And his musket molds in his hand. Time was when the little toy dog was new, And the soldier was passing fair; And that was the time our Little Boy Blue Kissed them and put them there. “Now, don’t you go till I come.” he sald, “And don't you make any noise!” 8o, toddling off to his trundle-bed, He dreamt of the pretty toys. And, as he was dreaming, an angel song Awakenea our Little Boy Blue— Oh! the years are many, the years are long, But the little toy friends are true! Aye, faithful to Little Boy Blue they stand.

A Tribute From William Greer Harrison. A few months ago one of the brightestspirits, one of the truest men and kindliest, paid a fiying visit to San Francisco, making his home in the Bohemian Club. His gentie manners, his brilliant wit and his thorough knowledge of humanity and his love for it endeared him to every man whose good fortune it was to come into close contact with him. But three short weeks 8go I sat with him in the home of & mutual friend on the lake shore in Chicago, drinking in his bright thoughts, his pleasant hearing him touch upon every human g, sympathetically suffering with hu- manity, hoping for humanity, believing in humanity. His tongue is silenced by the cold hand of death. The busy brain has ceased to work for us. Never again shall we feel the pressure of the kindly hand,never again rejoice with him in the possibilitiesof our race. Hesleeps; and that isall. For him,as forall brightintelligences, there must be & wideranda grander fiebd of thought. We must mourn him; yet he needs DO mourning. So true a man, so honest a spirit, leaving so much of genuine work behind him, will never be forgotten, yet we mourn. His place in literature wes a distinguished one. He did not fear to attack the shams, the impostures, the corruption, the tyranny, which belongs to poor humanity at its worst; but he handled all these subjects as the true gentle- | man must of necessity handle them. While | there was the utmost lucidity and clearness in his expresslon, he Was never coarse, never ! vulgar. It was always evident in what he said | that he pitled, even where he reproved. He { belonged to the highest and best class of literary men. | He loved literature for its own sake. He | created worlds for himself and for his friends, and he peopled those worlas with humsn be- ings such as the poet dreams of, such as the optimist believes in. He carried us awey from ourselves and the sordid surroundings of our common life. He gave us something to hope | for, something to believe in, and he leaves us with his memory to be held ever as the per- fume of the rose, his name a name to conjure { with, his dreams to fill us not with passion, not with thoughts harsh and vengeful, but with an abiding faith in our fellow-man. WILLIAM GREER HARRIS TR OF PASTZR SWITH, Pleaded Not Guilty to the Charge of Sending Obscene Postal Cards. An Ineffectual Attempt Made to Quash the Indictments Against Him. BOSTON, Mass, Nov. 4—A vigorous but unavailing effort was made in the United States court before Judge Nelson to-day to have gquashed the indictment against Rev. Frank Hyatt Smith, pastor of the North Avenue Congregational Church, Cambridge. Mr. Smith was pres- Many women were present, and it was probably out of consideration for their feelings that certain of the postal-cards guoted in the indictment as having been sent by Mr. Smith to members of his con- gregation and others were not read but merely referred to. When the court came in United States District Attorney Sherman Hoar called the case against Mr. Smith, and Colonel Hopkins said that he proposed to file a generai demurrer to the indictment. “The twenty-four counts in the indictment are intended to cover the mailing of a single card,” said Colonel Hopkins, “but the cards differ very considerably in the char- acter of the matter which is said to be written upon them. Many of them are in quotation marks and are vague and uncer- tain as to the individuals to whom they re- late. They are also wild and meaningless statements which are certainly not indict- able.” Judge Nelson, without any preliminary talk, said: ‘‘Many of these postal-cards are threatening, many of them are inde- cent, many of them are obscene, all are scurrilous, and they are all intended to in- jure the persons to whom they refer. The demurrer is overruled.” Colonel Hopkins excepted, and his ex- centions were noted. The defendant was called upon t3 plead to the indictment, and he responded, *‘Not guilty.” Colonel Hopkins then asked for a continuance of the ‘case for two weeks, in order to give him time to prepare for trial. Mr. Hoar disclaimed all desire for undue haste, but explained to the court the exi- gencies in regard to the assignments of cases for the jury sitting this term and whose time of service will soon expire. As it was necessary that Judge Putnam should be consulted, the date of the trial was left ent. ceived recognition, and a value beyond the open to be announced by the court to- ordinary was attached to everything that | morrow after consultation is had. OUTLINES 175 POLLCY JUSTTHO MONTES, That Is the Time That It Took Declaration of the New| to Undo What Had French Ministry Read. REFORMS IN PROSPECT. Results of the Southern Railway Inquiry to Be Made Public. FAVORS A PROGRESSIVE TAX. Definite Settlement of Differences Be- tween Church and State Advocated. PARIS, Fraxce, Nov. 4.—At 3:15 o’clock this afternoon Premier Bourgeois began reading the declaration of policy of the new Ministry in the Chamber of Deputies. The Radical deputies cheered the Premier | repeatedly, but the members of the Center remained frigidly silent throughout the address. M. Bourgeois began by announcing that the Cabinet would obey the wishes of the Chamber in opening a supplementary in- | quiry into the southern railway scandals, no matter what might be the result, and | would devosit upon the table of the | Chamber a complete collection’of the docu- ments in the case so as to enable Parlia- | ment to pronounce political and moral judgment in the matter. The address was | greeted with great applause by the Left. | M. Bourgeois also said it was the inten- tion of the Government to introduce a bill | prohibiting Senators and members of the | Chamber of Deputies from holding posi- tions as directors of any companies having contracts with the State under the penalty of losing their seats. It was proposed, he | said, to modify the law concerning accused | persons, making their preliminary ex- aminations public as far as possible. Numerous crises and grave tragic events, M. Bourgeois said, had retarded legislative reforms which varlous committees had prepared long ago, and the nation now awaited the methodical and resolute effort necessary to obviate the existing deadlock. The essential question now was to vote the budget upon the normal date. With reference to the army, he said the Government would give satisfaction to the | desire of the nation for a perfect organiza- 1 tion and supervision of expenditures. He | congratulated the troops in Madagascar | upon their admirable march to Antanan- | arivo, and said that France had acquired | alliances which re-established the univer- | sal equilibrium. The Government, he said, | would remain faithful to those alliances | and pursue the pacific development of | France’s rights and interests. The Gov- ernment would support a bill for the im- position of & progressive tax and measures | for the reform in the laws regulating the | sale and use of intoxicating drinks, pro- | viding that hygienic fluids should not be | taxed, and to entirely correct the anti: democratic inequalities in the finance sy tem by a general income tax. They would | also defend bills relating to co-operative in- surance, to organize a system of working- men’s pensions, and would prepare a definite settlementof the relations between | church and state. The Government, he | said, did not intend to interfere with the economic regime, but would merely ask that measures be passed destined to de- fend the agriculturists against certain in- ternational speculations and to regulate international speculations in gold mines. M. Bourgeois expressed his belief that a Republican majority existed in the Cham- ber willing to support a Government actuated by the old Republican spirit. He demanded the confidence of the Chamber for the Government, not that it might live, but that it might act. At the request of M. Bourgeois the Chamber adjourned until Thursday. M. Rickard, Minister of Justice and Wor- ship, read the declaration of the Ministry in the Senate. M. Guieyesse has been appointed Minis- ter of the colonies in the new Cabinet in consequence of the refusal of M. Leveille to accept the portfolio. M. Pierre Paul Guieyesse is one of the Republican repre- sentatives for Morbihan in the Chamber of Deputies, to which body he was elected in 1890 by 6536 votes. Ee was re-elected in 1893 by a majority of 3256 votes over M. Hostier, his Conservative opponent. | | | EEETTI A To Reorganize China’s Army.

But the Good Work Was Done Faithfully and Well at Last. It is easy enough to be sorry for things that happen and quite another thing to “straighten them out.” As the oid rhyme vuts it: “Alas! how easlly things gojwrong, A sigh t0o much ora kisstoo long.” But, of course, the most sénsible thing to do when you find that things have ‘‘gone wrong” 1s, instead of sitting down and moaning or mumping over it, to set to work and see how soon the damage can be repaired. That axiom holds good in all the affairs of life no matter how trivial or of how great import they may be. The lesser ills and worries lead to the larger ones, and the man who finds a hole in his | money sack never loses a moment in get- ting it “fixed.” But why does he do that with money and yet with other things quite as important he will display an air of carelessness that is too utterly sweet for anything. A rule never exists unless it has an exception, and one of the excep- tions to this rule of letting the apparently small things of this life slip by unheeded is 8. ). Bailey of Weaverville, Cal. Mr. Bailey found himself suffering from a nervous disorder, which when allowed to have full sway produces the most terrify- ing ills that humanity has any knowledge of, but instead of neglecting to see to it he got an efficient remedy at once. He went right to the specialists at the grand old HUDSON MEDICAL INSTITUTE and as soon as he had placed himself in their hands he had made the first step in the right direction. ~As stated above Mn. Bailey was suffering from what would cer- tainly have proved a terrible malady had it not been taken hold of promptly, but at the end of two months this is the cheering and cheerful letter which he has been ablé ;Jo_ write to the specialists who treated im: WEAVERVILLE, CAL., Aug. 8, 1895, Hudson Medical Institute, San Francisco, Cal.* Gentlemen—I will now state that after two months’ treatment with you that I feel fully restored to health, and express my gratis tude to you for your speedy aid. I also desire to say that any person suffering from any ner- vous disorders would be doing themselves an injustice not to consult the Hudson Medical Institue without delay. Yours in health, S. J.
