FItlDAY JULY 20. 188S.
A compositor with, a preat prophet
io soul, while putting into type a
wedding notice, instead of tho "con
tracting parties" made it read "the
contradicting parties."
Twenty-itye thousand watermel
ons were eaten at Atlanta, Ga., on
July 4th. The Constitution says
that many a negro from the country
went home with a melon on his
shoulder.
The fire loss of the United States
and Canada for the month of June,
1888, reached the total of S9,591,400,
some 8500,000 les3 than the fire loss
chargeable against the same month
of the preceding year.

Sasiabcaijd, a city of central Asia,
belonging to Russia, is said to have
been selected as the place where the
czar is to bo crowned emperor of
Central Asia. As a city it had a his
tory far back in the mists of antiquity.
Alexander the Great occupied it
SUBaEON'-GEXEKAIi HAMILTON haS
been looking into the system of im
migration at Castle Garden, New
York, and he thinks if.tho people at
large understood the character of tho
classes now being dumped at Castle
Garden there would speedily come
an end to immigration. He was thor
oughly disgusted.
.
The business of robbing a bank and
going to Canada is now becoming sys
tematized. The latest operator, Mr.
Pitcher of Providence, stated his terms
with the utmost sang froid. "I want
8150,000," he says, and he add3 with
commendable generosity, "I will turn
everything over if I get that."
Queen VicToniAhas accepted from
the corporation of Lloyds a gun that
formed part of the armament of the
ship Lutine, which was wrecked off
the coast of Holland in 1779. The
gun, which was recovered in 188G, has
been mounted opposite an embrasure
conuranding the Dean's garden, and
the scare about tho defenseless condi
tion of London is perceptibly dimin
ishing. Statistics show that labor-saving
machines increase wages. The Jour
nal of Commerce says; In 1857 the
engineers and firemen received 17.201
percent. of total cost In 188S the
engineers and firemen received 39.627
per cent of total cost Improvements
in machinery, not only in railroads,
but in other important lines as well,
are a benefit in every way to every
body concerned. The general public
are better served at -cheaper rates,
and the mechanic receives increased
wages.
The tower which is being erected
in Paris, on the grounds of the Paris
exposition for 1889, is to bo bnilt of
iron, and from the ground to tho top
of the flag-staff will be about one
thousand and seventy feet, or nearly
five times tho height of Bunker Hill
monument, or nearly twice as high as
Washington monument, which is the
tallest structure of the kind in the
world. The ascent will be made by
elevators, and it will take sis minutes
to reach the look out, which is about
eight hundred, feet The view of
Paris will be grand.
The Omaha Herald says: The
tide of settlement is moviug with
irresistible force upon the ranges of
the west All along the line, from
the Indian territory on the south to
Montana, homesteaders and preempt
ore are marching on the domain of
the cattle kings and steadily narrow
ing the limits of the free range. It is
estimated that in less than ten years
government ranges will have disap
peared from Colorado, "Wyoming and
Montana. The coming cattle king
must own his land. The volley of the
Cheyenne in the Black Hills, where
large herds of cattle grazed and real
ized fortunes for their owners, is wit
nessing its lost round-up this season.

THE ANAEOHIST'S CONFESSION.
One of The" Conspirators Turns States'
iiTidence.
Edison's Phonograph Sold For One MiHion
Dollars.
(SPECIAL TO TnE.ASTOBUN.)
Chicago, July 19. Frank Chebowa,
oneof the three anarchists arrested
by inspector Bonfield for conspiracy,
has made a full and formal confes
sion. It was that Kronck had un
folded to Chebowa, the plans of the
anarcnists lor revenging Jnelden,
Parsons, Spies and other Haymarket
offenders; and had told of the bomb
which he (Kronck) had invented. It
was no larger than a base-ball and
was to ba be loaded with dynamite
aim una ui uruKen giass, n was de
nied by Chebowa. that there was a
plot tf murder the judges and the
inspector, that is.Tie heard of no such
definite scheme. They were talked of
as was Capt Schasck and he under
stood that he was to pay more atten
tion to the captain than to any one
eitse.
There was no concerted nlan of
action, but it was agreed that when
all preparations were made he, and
two others were to be informed by
Kronck, who brought him two bombs
of broken glass and two sticks of
dynamite from which he was to make
bombs of gas-pipe after tho usual
pattern. The other two men were
supplied with bombs and dynamite.
He had the stuff in his house for
about a weekend then grew so afraid
that it would be discovered, that he
threw it in the privy vault. This
was the substance of the confession,
which inspector Bonfield will use in
court
The confession is much more in
detail and covers about 30 closely
priuted pages. By his confession it
is understood Chebowa ha3 virtually
secured immunity from prosecution.
He is really much less guilty than
either "Wolf, Kronck, Chepak, or any
one of the men not yet arrested. He
has agreed to give his testimony in
open court, where it will corroborate
with other evidence secured by in
spector Bonfield, against the con
spirators. Two other men are still at
large but they may be arrested at any
time.
ONE MILLION DOLLARS.
New1 York, July 19. The reported
Bale of Edison's phonograph, has
been confirmed; but the statement
that it had beeu sold to an English
syndicate was an error. EdisonB
Phonograph Co., which owns all of
the Edison phonograph patents for
recording, perpetuating and reprodu
cing articulate speech in tho United
States, and Canada, has been sold to
Jesse H. Lippincott of this city,
and Pittsburg for 31,000,000.
The purchase includes all im
provements to the phonograph
that may be made by Edison during
the next fifteen years. Lippincott
has also acquired a license to run for
fifteen years for the graphophone.the
invention of Messrs. Painter and
Bell, of Washington. Tho inventors
retain all of their foreign rights to
these inventions.
Their Business Booming.
Probably no one tliinghas caused such
a general revival of trade at J no. C. De
ment's Drug Store as their giving away
to their customers of so manv free trial
bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery for
consumption. Their trade w simply
enormous in tills very valuable article
from the fact that it always cures and
never disappoints. Coughs, Colds,
Asthma, Bronchitis, Croup, and all
throat and lunr diseases nuteklv cured.
You can test it before buying by getting
a trial Dome lree, large si70 si. iwery
bottle warranted.
Coffee and cake, ten cents, at the
