The San Francisco Highbinders After a
Contractor. '
; Sax .Francisco, March 13. Seid Back,
a member of the firm of Sing Wing& Co.
of Portland, Oregon, is lietng guarded
by the police from a gang of highbinders.
Back is a contractor and at the begin
ning of last foason, furnished two gangs
of men to the Karluk Packing Company.
He agreed to pay them a certain rate
and advanced about one half of what lie
thought thev would earn. -The season
was a failure and the amounts due men
did not come up to their advance. The
highbinders secured assignments of the
claims and suit for $17,500' and wrote
Back telling him not to dare to come to
town. He came however, armed with
letters of introduction from Portland's
best citizens, and applied to Chief Crow
ley for police protection and filed answer
to the suit. Back said he owed one
man $23 and the jury returned a verdict
against him- for that amount, but order
ed plaintiffs to pav costs. The high
binders declare they will have Back's
life, but he says if police will, see him
safe aboard the steamer he will get home
all right.

Little Rock, Ark., March 13. The

STRICKEN SPEECHLESS.
Was This a Visitation of God's IV rath.
an Claimed?
New Havks, March 11. The French
Roman Catholics in this city are horri
fied at what they consider the punish
ment visited upon a blasphemer, who
was stricken dumb while cursing the
Catholic church and all connected with
it. Rev. Father La Crosse came here
recently from Montreal, and revival ser
vices followed his advent to this city.
At one of these meeting the priest ur
ged his hearers to endeavor to reclaim
all whom they had known as members
of the church', but who had become in
different to religion. With this end in
view the congregation willed upon many
of their own nationality, and special
etrbi ts were made to- reclaim Louis Le
may, of 110 James street. Several self
constituted missionaries sought Lemay
at his rooms yesterday, and with prayers
and supplications besought him to turn
from his present ways and find consola
tion within the jiortals of the church.
As a return for their solicitude for his
spiritual welfare, Lemay cursed his call
ers roundly, commencing with .the
church itself, devoting it to eternal tire
and brimstone. Then he took up the
prelates, beginning with the pope, and
cursed them individually and collective
ly. "May they all ," "and there the
man stopped while his eyes etarted from
their sockets and he seemed to be in ag
ony. Friends drew near and begged
Lemay to tell hia troubles, but he was
unable to utter a word. A physician,
who has been hastily summoned", made
an examination and declared that the
man had been struck with paralvsis.
The sufferer.- is still speechless. The
Canadian priest says that, in his judg
ment, Lemay s affliction is a visitation
of God's wrath, and a warning to all who
cio as this man aid.
THE SI GAK MARKET.
No Famine This Month Bat a Redaction
in the Cost Next Month.
Nkw York, March 11. Prominent
merchants were interviewed here today
regarding the reported threatened sugar
famine. Manv retail dealers have taken
advantage of the scare and advance prices
1 cent per pound on the stock in store,
which liu not cost an extra price irom
the wholesalers. One un-named grocer
frankly admitted that he did it simply to
make a little monev. Hector O. Have
mver. uresident of the sric-nr trust. h:lvs
no famine need be feared during March.
Merrill, of Merrill, Acker & (Jondit, says
all tne dealers who have any stock on
hand April 1st will suffer a loss of from
o to if l iier barrel. The producer is
receiving the benefit of the nresent situa
tion, and the law of supply and demand
will govern tlie business as it stands to'
day. F. B. Thnrber, of Thurber, Why-
land s Co., says :
"After the 1st of April sugar ought to
be at- least 2 cents per pound lower than
now. The increased demand may tern
porarily advance prices somewhat, but
thev will soon reach the proper level and
sugars will be nearly one-third cheaper
man yiey nave been.
A RUSSIAN BARON.
He Had Lost More at the Gamins; Table
Than He Could Pay.
St. Petersburg, March 11. Baron
Kauffman, adjutant to his majestv the
czar, committed suicide last night by
shooting himself. His dead body was
found this morning. An attempt was
made to keep the affair quiet. An
official inquiry, seeking to ascertain the
cause of the deed, has resulted in dis
closing the fact that the baron had re
cently sustained heavy losses at the
gaming table, for which he had given
notes that he was unable to pav. It is
therefore assumed that he killed himself
to avert the disgrace which a failure to
meet the obligations would have en
tailed.
WHERE STORMS ARE SEEDED.
The Island of Cuba Suffering Severely
From Drouth.
Havana, March 11. The drouth still
prevailes. Its effects are most severely
felt in the department of Santiago de
Cuba. Small rivers are dried up and
heavy losses in cattle has been sus
tained, owing to the fact that it is iru
possible for the cattle to get food or
water. The drouth will naturally inter
fere with the sugar crop, the yield, of
course, being much reduced throuel
lack of rain. The loss of cattle, too.
will effect the crop, oxen for labor in the
held being very scarce.
The Widow Gets It All.
Oaicago. March 11. Mrs. Marv Rev
nolds, of Aurora, and Ernest M. Dickey
applied todav for letters of admini8tra
tion on the estate of the late Joseph
Reynolds, widely known as "Diamond
Jo." He left $750,000 of personal prop
erty and no realty. The only heir at
law is the widow, and she receives she
entire estate, no will having been discov
ered. Reynolds was generally supposed
to be much more wealthy than the pro-
i - l i i a
ceeumgB in court, wuuiu utuimic.
A Farmers Alliance Victory.
Columbus. O.. March 11. The Row
ling's bill, amending the tax laws of
Ohio so far that manufacturers cannot
enjoy exemption from taxation on their
product for one year after production as
heretofore, passed the senate this after
noon and now is a law. The bill met
the combined opposition of the manu
facturers. It was a farmers' alliance
measure and is a great victory for that
organization.

Dfiiter Has No Mayor.
Denver, March 13. This city is with-
out a mayor. The supreme court this
morning denied a rehearing in the may
oralty case. The present mayor, Lonr
doni, was a few days ago declared illigal
ly elected after holding his office nearly
one year. D. C. Parkard, president of
the board of supervisors will probably
act as mayor untill after the next city
election.

tions from the attorney-general, today

of this time to again march, but dis

The moor baths, of -which :much' is

many Austrian , and German .health re
Borts, were first used at FranzenabacL, Ifl.
1823 Dr. Poschxnann,' a physician thersj,
believed that he' had found' in them a

since become popular.'" Some physicians
BtHl question their iefficacyv while' others
in Austria and Germany rely -upon them
to render good service in many maladies:
Though the bath is composed peatj or

which is extracted from a "-bog in Ireland
or Scotland. '!. K.

Umbrellas In England;
A -oi 'ji'Xl
How many umbrellas are manufact
ured in this country annually? "theri
are no official returns giving the number
in this country, though in the -United
States it is calculated that one umbrella,
is made annually for every six persons
If we apply this proportion to the popu-j
lation of the United Kingdom now cal
culated, in round numbers, at 88,000,060
over 6,000,000 umbrellas are made "an
nually. Upward of 2,500,000 umbrellas'
were imported by sea into Calcutta i am
the year 1888-89, and the yearly exports
of umbrellas from this country are valued,
at 581,000. In France, in 1830, um
brellas were manufactured by 160 makers
to the value of 280,000; in 1847, 405,000!
worth by 303 makers; in 1882 their value
was 1,180,000, and 890 manufacturers.
Price averaged four francs each. There
were thus made in France in 1882 7,500,
000 umbrellas, or nearly one for each in
habited house. London Tit-Bits.
How Old Spiders Live.
Old spiders, which have neither web
nor the materials to make one, often
hunt about to find out the webs of other
spiders, younger tind weaker than them
selves, with whom they venture battle. ,
The invader generally succeeds, and the
younger spider is driven out to make a
new web, and the old spider remains
in possession until a stronger spider in- -vadee
the web and drives it out. When
thus dispossessed the spider seldom ven
tures another attack, but tries to subsist
upon the few insects that may fall acci
dentally into its clutches, and eventually
dies of hunger. London Standard.
Macaulay was 48 when he issued the
first and second volumes of his "History
of England," and the third and fourth
did not appear until he was 55. Good as

bis maturer yean.
