It is reported that work on the Salt Lake and Los Angeles railroad will com mence soon. Frank C. Ives defeated John Roberts, the English phauipion, in the interna tional billiard match at Chicago. Mitchell and Corbett have signed final articles to fight at the Coney Island Athletic elub. The purse offered is 10,000. Judge Ballinger of Port Townsend has decided that prosecuting attorneys are not entitled to the customary $13 in divorce cases. Miss Ellon Durr of San Francisco died at Bingham, having been for six months unable to sleep on account of a nervous malady. She was 20 years of age. Two suits involving $200,000 have been brought against James R. Eeene, the well-known speculator. The suits are brought by Mrs. Minnie C. Rankin, wife of Alfred N. Rankin, a member of the firm of Wayland, Trask & Co., Wall street bankers. An impoijit decision was rendered by Judge F. M. Angelloti in the superior court of San Rafael, Cal. The widow of James M. Donahue contested the be quests to several charitable institutions made by her late husband. The judge decided in favor of the institutions. The Amalgamated association in Penn sylvania has refused to accept a reduc tion in wapes. and one of the greatest struggles since the formation of the or ganization is to be confronted, for the manufacturers declare they will use non-union labor. C. P. Huntington and Cornelius Van derbilt have received notice from an archists that their residences on Fifth avenue. New York, will be blown .up by dynamite. Superintendent Byrnes says he will take care of the anarchists, and that no mansion will be blown up. At Bakersfield considerable trouble has been caused by a gang of tramps hanging around the fruit cars and steal ing an occasional box of fruit and doing other mischief. Seven of them were captured and taken some distance into the country, and were soundly thrashed on the bare skin with a blacksnake. They were warned that a repetition of the dose awaited them if again caught. By the carelessness of a mine foreman at Wilkesbarre, Pa., an explosion of gas was caused in the Plymouth mine, in which five men were killed and six in jured. While the men were at work the foreman dweended the mine shaft to inspect the works. He had not gone SO yards when the naked lamp in his cap ignited, the gas, and a terrific explo sion occurred, killing and injuring the men. as stated. In the cae of a Chinese highbinder arrested under the Geary act for failure to register, Judge Roes of Los Angeles issued an order for deportation. The judge read an elaborate opinion constru ing the statutes and treaties with China to mean that the word "laborer." as used therein, was intended to apply to all classes save tho?e who come to the United States for the purposes of trade, travel, teaching or curiosity. The centennial anniveruirr of laving the comer stone of the national capitoi was commemorated at Washmion. One hnndred years ago George Wash ington, as "Worshipful Master of L.lge No. 22, Virginia." with Masonic rites, laid the corner stone. President Cleve land delivered an addrexs. and he was followed by William Wirt Henry, orator of t.ie day. Speeches were also delivered by Vice-President Stevenson and Speaker Crisp. A mob attacked the jail in Roanoke, Vs.. intending to hang a nesrro there on charge of assault to murder. A com pany of militia, which was guarding the jail, fired on the mob. killing nine men and seriously wounding many more, among the latter being the mayor of the town, who was defending the jail with the police. The. negro was afterward captured and hanged and the body burned. The mayor and the captain in command of the militia lied from the town to escape the Tengeance of the mob. At the parliament of religions at Chicago, while there has been no at tempt to attack the fundamental doc trines of the Christian church, its meth ods and the daily behavior of its clergy as well as the laity have been subjected to searching and fearless criticism. In this work not only the members of other religions, but Christian missionaries and Christian preachers as well as profound Christian scholars have taken part. The whole range of Christian endeavor has been brought, as it were, under a criti cal microscope, and it would seem that every possible failure or omission has been brought to light and commented on with due severity. Through all the discussions, however, bos run the cry of j iue necessity oi putting me uoctrme oi the brotherhood of man into every -day life. There is an enormous influx of unem ployed laborers coming into Hanford, Cal., small squads having arrived each day for some time. Most of them rodo all the way from Colorado on top of box cars, having compelled the railroad em ployes to give them free transportation. Each squad seems to be organized, hav ing a leader who does all the talking. On arriving the squads remain in the dept while their captain goes in search of information concerning employment. All those who are willing to work have found a market for their services, and those who refuse to work are moved on by the officers. The demand for labor is now fully supplied, and in view of the fact that principally female help is em ployed in packing raisins, the new comers will find themselves out of em ployment when the grape crop is picked. I gave a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy to a friend of mine for the wife of one of his tenants who had been sick and bed-ridded with bowol complaint for ibo last three months.

Chicago, Sept. 19, "93. It seemed to me that a highly proper way to visit the exposition planned to commemorate the glories of Columbus' voyage, wa9 by water; I therefore boarded the magnificent passenger steamei Christopher Columbus, which by the way, is a veritable floating pal ace, and sailed away, with my uusea wortby mind as much purturbed as was that of the famous voyager when he embarked from Palos. Shortly after leaving; the wharf you pass a colossal statue erected bv the ! generosity of one of Chicago's citizens. on the spot where less than forty years ago an entire iamuy were massacred by the Indians. Turning' from the city with its endless blocks of stately build ings, smoking chimneys and other evi dences of commercial grandeur, you gaze, and watching the sailsof the lake craft whitening in the horizon, wonder if Columbus' ships looked as they do. Presently, as the smoke of the city and mist of the Jake roll away your eyes behold the palaces, temples and towns of the far fumed White City. A little girl at my side expressed what many must thiuk hut would hardly utter, "It looks like Hoaveir." Certainly there is nothing on earth with which to com pare it and tnaturer minds than the child's might be excused for venturing into celestial realms for a metaphor. As you sail by the weird and beautiful scene you have time for contemplation, and in rapture you exclaim to yourself: Did there ever come to Columbus' sick and fevered brain as he luy on his bed of pain in the convent of La Ribida. or lo his troubled sleep amid the darkness and danger of his tempestuous voyage with a mutinous crew, or weighed down with chains inhis dungeon prison, a vision of this rcene of splendor to ffive solace to his poor, sorrowing soul? What if the future had been opened to him, and, as he looked out into the darkness of the night from bis lonrlr watch on the Santa Maria, the sight of prophecy came to him aud bis vision rested on this scene of beauty! But we have reached the landing- and strug gling out with the crowd, are brought down from a flight of fancy to the real ities of earth. You enter the turn stile and pause to look at the Columbus caravels, facsimiles of the ships in which Columbus sailed. From the mastheads wave the banners of Arra gon and Castile. Right here, if you are a woman, your pride asserts itself, for you remember that it was a qceex who fitted out this armament, nw and forever embalmed in historic elorv. and you fee! that thjs continent belongs to your sex by right of discovery. You give a hasty glance to the biking ship, a puny craft, but little larger than an ordinary row boat, yt built so true to the correct principles of naval archi tecture, that Capt. Anderson and his venturesome crew have crossed the ocean and half of the continent in it. and demonstrated that America might have been discovered by his Norse an cestors. Now you pass on through the Arch of Triumph, and stand in the Peri-stile, On every side rise the tri umph of the architect's and artist's skill. Directly in front, the beautiful administration building, to the right the famous French statue of the lie public, towers aloft in heroic propor tions and an expression of perpetual benison. To '.he left the magnificent curve of columns aud statues that ex cell the most famous of Grecian tem ples, and on and on rise the roofs and lowers of building after building in which are stored the treasures of eanh. while all nations have joined in friend ly rivalry to do honor to the great Dis coverer and the government of the land he discovered. I; was worth the long and tedious journey from the Pa- cihc coat just to see thvse buildings uid their exterior adornment. They were not reared by some ambitious queen with the unrequited toil of slaves to gratify her vanity: neither were they built by some selfish prince with taxes wrung from unwilling subjects to please the whim of some comely fa vorite. They were built by the swar thy god whom the ancients knew as Vulcan, but we moderns call Labor, for his fair-haired daughter Art. Vou stroll along by the side of the lagoon and watch the graceful gondolas pro pelled bv gaily dressed gondoliers, un til yourline of vision is crossed by that triumph of iuvcative genius, the" elec tric launch and your dream of Ven etian palaces is merged into the patent office at Washington. Vou reach the Mc.Monnies fountain which in artistic conception and execution is unsurpassed in the world. As well rnipht I attempt to describe to you the song of our loved meadow lark as to tell how it looks. Another short walk and you arrive at the Womens Building, and lest your readers should become as weary as" ai-e my poor feet, vour correspondent will vanish therein, to tell you of its won ders in tho next letter!
