Reinhold Jahn was thinking of closing up his saloon at Oue Hundred and Sev- enty-third street and Thi:d avenue at1 o'clock yesterday morning when adverse 0! weather had improved. It had not, and Jahn was trying to close the door against a particularly violent gust of wind, when the door wus banged open with a violence whico made him think he was the victim of araid by the police. The passing im- pression was of something white instead of blue, and changed Jahn’s train of thonght toward Waring's white angels. “I fix dem fellers if von of dem comes in dot quick again, even if he dves vont some drinks in a burry,” John muttered as he turned to serve the supposed street-sweep- ing customer. calmly settling herself to rest behind the big stove. “Get out!” said the saloon-keeper. ““Ba-ab,” said the goat, and John bunted up a club. There foliowed the liveliest chase the fat German ever engased in. He threw open the door and tried to drive annie through it. The goat went over chairs and a table, and everywhere except toward the door. She carried a bottle of Rhine wine off the table and several | glasses off the bar. When Jaho finallv cornered her at the far side of the saloon she rose on her hind legs and defied him. He waved his club toward her, goat realized the cituation ana charged. She alighted in the pit of the saloon-Keeper's stomach. He ran back- ward to lessen the force of the impact and never stopped running until he landed on the sidewalk. He yelled for the police and hammered out alarm raps with his club. Policeman O'Rourke came down the avenue on the run with a revolver in his hand and thoughts of burglars and possi- bie promotion in mind. The goat had gone back and settled herself comfortabiy by the fire again. “Get ber out, O’Rourke Jahn shouted. - 2 | suia something like damn. | and that it se.aom had more than a few “Don't be v.oleni; dot goat vill wreck | der place if ve don’t begentle,” said Jahn. 00 | The su,; tion seemed good. The blue coat approached her quietly, and the un- suspecting goat greeted him as a friend. He seized her by the horus and she rose to her feet to prepare for emergencies. Jahn got a rope and tried to dropa noose over the animal’s horns. She started across the room and O'Rourke followed. He could not help it unless he released his wrip on her horne, and then there was no telling what might happen. O'Rourke und the goat encircled the rocom four times with Jahn in pursuit, and leit a trail of upset furniture behind them before tue goat, tited of dragging 200 pounds of police material and uniform | about the room and stopped. Jahn roped Ler about the horns and the policeman towed her out. Two hours later he appeared at the pound at Taylor and One Hundred and Eighty - ninth sireet, fagged out. The goat was appai- ently as fresh as ever. O'Rourke won’t tell what happened on the route, but 1t was too cold for any policeuan to con- sume two hours in covering sixieen blocks unless he was obliged to. Later on he complained that it was one of the hardest tours of duty he ever put in.— New York Sun. Propitiating the Lightning, The thunderstorms of South Africa are very violent in character, and no wet sea- son passes without its record of lizhtning accidents. The natives regard the light- ning with great awe, and on the occasion of a storm usually retire within the huts and sit on the ground, covering their heads, ssient and speaking only in whis pers—not 50 much from actual fear as from an idea that it would be impious to go ubout and behave as usual. In some parts of the country a ceremony of pro- pitiation is gone through, the head of the family (or, in bis absence, the nearest rep- reseniative) climbing tosome high point— perhaps the top of the stone wail inclos- ine the cattle kraal—holding in bis hands sticks previousiy rubbed with a certain m-dicine, and calling upon the lightning, adjuring it to pass by and spare thathab- itation. e ——e————— Once every year the Emperor of China, amid great pomp and ceremony, plows a farrow in order to dignify agriculture in the eyes of his people. 1at nearly all the money due by the | He saw a big wuite goat | but was too discreet to ap- | :ch near enough to be within reach. | JINEAR STILL KEEPS SHADY The Sweetheart of Miss Clowes Not Found hy the Coroner. He Was Wanted to Tell His ‘ Story at the Inquest | Yesterday. | His Wife £aid He Was Afraid of the | Dead Girl's Brother—A Ver- dict of Suicide. John I Minear, the ex-sweetheart of Violet Foster Clower, did not appear at the inquest yesterday morning. Deputy Coroner McCormick had sent out two subpenas for him, one about ten days ago and the other on Saturday, but the officer in charge of the subpenas could get no wrace of Minear. |ing and was | he had said tbat while he had no objec- tion to testifying before the jury he was | afraid of violence at the hands of W. F. Clowes, a brother of the dead girl. | Mrs. Minear aeclined to state whether she and her bLusband had separated or whether she intended to institute pro- ceedings for d vorce. Mr. Clowes did not arrive from Phila- delpnia, he having changed his mind about coming to this City; so that Mr. Minear need not remain in hiding any more. At the inquast vesterday James Patter- son, conduc'or on the Eilis-street line, told of Miss Foster having asked him for a pencil and a sheet of paper, which he handed her, and of ber writing a note to Minear bezinning, **Opposite your house the moon is peeping over the hills on my way to deuth,”’ and of her having asked the conductor to send it to Minear. Conductor Hunt of the Park andfOcean road told about the peculiar actions of the girl and of his havingz notified the lite- saving station of the girl’sintention to commit suicide. Nothing new was elicited from the testi- moeny. The jury returned a verdict of suicide. EDHEM PASHA. A War Correspondent’s View of the Jurkish General, Edhem Pasha undertands war thor- oughly, but it took him a little time to appreciate the functions of a war corre- spondent, says the London Telegraph. He seemed to think that tne latter should e hedged about by many restrictions, tenderly fostered and safely depos- ited during a battle among the bag- gage animals aud knights of the hos- pital. It was some realized that the expectation of witness- ing and describing a battle was the one thing which procured him the honor of these gentlemen’s company in his camp. One anxious morning, at a time when war was thought to be imminent, on sending the general and all his staff had flitted during the nizht, and had gone no man would say whither. No orders had been leit, and the guards would allow no one to pass. Here was a case of dire disappointment, but no man may run the gauntlet of an Albanian guard w.th im- punity. When the general returned a joint representation was made, and he was entreated not to allow this kind of thing to occur again. He expressed his peni- tence and promised a timely warning of any unexpected move. It may be interesting to mention that Edhem Pasha, the central figure of this little world, 1s about 45 years of age, although he looks older. He 1s ther above nuddle bheight, any wears a short, thick black beard, alreadd flecked with gray. His nose is straight and rather long, but Lis most inter- esting feature is his gray eyes, which are large and intelligent. His manner is very attractive—a mixture of that courtesy and dignity which are not uncommon among Turkish officers. He does not strike one as a sirong man physically, ihough I am told he is. a hard worker and does not spare himself, His manner of talking is, as a rule, quiet and marked by much refinement and gravity, but it grows animated when a subject indles his interest, and his eyes glow with enthusiasm. Itisdifficnit 1o judge of a man’s sense of humor through the barriers of 2 strange language. His style of life is simple, and he has none of the Orieatal love of display. In char- acter he seems to be siraightforward and sincere, frank and truth-loving. Trickery and intrigue, diplomacy and Mr. McCormick called at Minear’s resi- | dence, 776 Clayton street, yesterday morn- | informed that he had not | been home since Friday night, and that | time before he | round to headquarters it appeared that | His subor- ics he alike detests. nates and those who see him more | intimately are very fond of him. “‘He | treats us,” one of the aid-de-camp said to me, ‘‘not as a superior, but as |a father.” Edhem Pasha is very pnroud of | hisarmy. *‘The Greeks report,’”’ he said, *‘that we have no cavalry. They should see our Circassian horsemen.” A band of Greek irregulars had crossed the f.ontier | and fired on the Turkish troops. I asked | bim whether there was any chance of | reprisals. “No,” he answered _proudly, **we do not make war in that dirty fash- ion.” No one could possibly deprecate bloodshed more than thc present writer. But sometimes it is difficult 1o repress the feeling tt:at such excellence of machinery and arrangements should be put toa prac- tical test, and that =0 much deyvotion and courage shoula not remain entirely dumb and witlout expression. An army with- out a battle is like a parliament without talk or a race meeting without horses. ST o HIS BETTER SEVEN-EIGHTHS. A Kentucky Editor's Leading Article on His Wife’s Merits. Many of my friends have asked me, and a few strangers had the curiosity to write and inquire: *“Why is it that you always speak of your wife as your better seven- eighths?’ In this brief article I will en- deavor to explain, and I use the personal pronoun that the readers of the Hazel Green Gazette may the better understand me. In Christian fortitude she is as a fortress capable of withstanding any fusil- lade; 1 but a nfle-pit, with many un- | guarded gaps, in comparison. Her faith | is that of a healthy tree in full foliage and fruit; mine like a tree blasted, with an occasional sprout that lends hove of fruition, but so frail that the first cold wave of desponden cy deadens and with- ers it. As a neighbor she embodies those quali- ties expressed in the words of the Master: “Do unto others as you would that they | should do to you'’; I am content to do by him as well as he has done by me, and too | frequently fail short of that standard. As nurse she is a sister of charity, reared in the garden of Gethsemane or in anun- nery of Nazareth, shedding sweet sun- shine through the sickroom; I both im- patient and irascible. Endowed with | almost superbuman energy, she is a liv- ing type of the busy bee; I, not so en- riched, am too frequently a darone of disappointment. The day isneversodark but the bright light beyond beckons her on as a beacon of hope; despondency darkens my vision and obscures from view anvthing favorable the future migzht show. Tuus in all the nobler attributes of life she towers above me as rhe forest pine above the stunted fig bush. During a continuous companiounship of over twenty- two years I have been sensible of these superior qualities, and I have been always bonest enough to say so. She combines characteristics quintuple in quality, and in her affections assumes the place of mother, wife, sister, friend. All in all, she is the apple of my eye, my best be- loved, in whom Iam well pleased. Such s my wife as I see her and have known her all these years. She condones my faults, finds excuses for my errors, syni- pathizes with me in sorrow and strength- ens me in adversity. Hence, I say, *‘our better seven-eighths,” such as she will ever be to me! | NATURE'S LAKE OF SOFT SOAP. | A Curious Formation in the Far North- west Which Lathers at a Touch. | The Great Northern Railway Comvpany ! bas justannounced a rate of 60 cents per | 100 pounds on soap siush from Northern | Pacific Coast voints to Chicago and Mis:- issippi and Missour1 River points. Some ‘one has requested a rate on this commod- ity, but tnere does not appear to ve many people who know what soap slush is. One ingenious gentleman said that it was the product of certain small lakes on the line of the road that is filled with a thick silica water, which, when one’s hands are washed in it, gives a lather which would bring joy to the heart of any washer- woman or tonsorial artist. When the hair | is washed in this wonderiul native product the head swells with lather till it takes the proportions of a snow mouniain. Sun- burn on tie face vanishes as mist before the sunshine in June. “There is a lake of this wonderful Iiquid,’” said this veracious informant, “over on the East Side. It is amile long and proportionately broad. Do you know that we are really vet in iznorance of what we have in this country *” Local soap peop'e, when asked to define and tell about soap slush, were nonplused. They gave it up. Another party said that not long ago he received a curious product irom Walia Walla, a kind of sand mixed with soap substances, from which it was thought that soap could be probably made here to supply the washerwomen of the goat commons in the New York suburbs. A last effort to determine the character of soap slush elicited the information that the commodity orizinated at Portland, probably at the horse meat cannery.—Seat- tie Times. — - An Earnest Church-Worker.

Why, I have promised to marry the new rector after Easter.”’—New York World. REID DESIRES THE PORTFOLIO When Shermam Retires the Editor Would Like the Place. However, the Views of the President Are Yet to Be Ascertained. Assistant Secretary Cridler WIII Not Retract the Charge Against the Jubliea Embassador. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 26.—There is apparently no basis for the report that Whitelaw Reid will succeed Sherman as Secretary of State beyond the general be- liet that Sherman will be compelled be- cause of illness and increasing feebleness of age to resign before the hard work of autumn begins; nct that Sherman in any event will be expected to take an active part in this work, for it is well understood his duties are purely perfunctory, but be- cause it will be necessary to have a strong, vigorous man at the head of the depart- ment to deal with important diplomatic questions sure to arise. Judge Day is the aciual working head of the department, but this anomelous condition of things cannot last throughout the administra- tion. For this reason, and because he is at present in ill health, the report that Sherman will soon retire is quite generally velieved. As to the probability of Whitelaw Reid succeeding him, the members of the Cabi- net profess to be entirely ignorant of the subject. deny he would like to be a member of the Cabinet. It is politics in Ohio and New York Is such as to bring about Reid’s appointment, even should the President be disposed to add to the honors Reid has alreaay enjoyed as special embassador to the juoilee. It is understood the President feels he has dis- charged whatever obligations he owed to Reid by that appointment. Moreover, the annoyance caused in the seal fisheries ne- gotiations by the premature pubiication of Embassador Foster’s letter to Emuas- sador Hay, ned by Sherman, has left its mark. Third Assistant Secretary of State Cridler has not retracted the charge that Reid is directly responsible, thus be- traying the plans of the administration atan inopportune moment, and itis un- derstood he will not do so. When Reid arrives in a few days he will proceed to Lake Champlain to make a personal report to the President of hisim- pressions at the jubilee. At the inter- view something may belearned cf how the President regards the desire of Reid for a place in the Cabinet. .- Denied by Sherman. NEW YORK, N. Y., July 26.—When seen at Amazansett Beach regarding the report that he would shortly retire, Sher- man said to-day: *‘The story is without foundation. If my _ health holds out I Reid’s personal friends do uot | not thought likely tha!.‘ shall see the Hawaiian annexation ques- tion to a settlement.” Sherman said he expected to return to Washington in a few days. NO HOPE FUE MKS. MAYBRICK. Even the Efforts of Embassador Hay Will Not Keleass Her. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2.—The British Government has again declined to interfere in the exacution ot the sentence of Mrs. Florence Maybrick on the ground that there is no reason for a change of judgment in the matter. The last effort to secure nt least an amelioration in the con- ditions of her confinement was made by Embassador Hay, who had some corre« spondence on the subject with the Foreign Office, which he has transmitted to the State Department. Loru Salisbury appears to have called for a report in #he case from Secretary | Rigley, and the latter regretfully stated that he was unable, in view of the conciu- | sion which had been reached by himself | ana his predecessor as to Mrs. Maybrick's | | guilt, to recommend to her ) " tajesty any d be extended Secretary Rigley also added that s exceptional treatment shouls to her. | the medical report in Mrs. Maybrick’, case was quite satisfactory, an ] | that the Government does not credit any ! of the statements as to the insanity of the prisoner.
