Fearful Adventure of n Frontiersman !■ the ItnpiilH of tlie Colorado Uiver. Where the Losses Occur mid the Profits Accrue. A coirc spondent, writing from El Dorado Cuuyon, Nev., says: Another of our oldtimers has been swollowed np by the treacherous Colorado. Barney Coleman and Benjamin Goocb, accompanied by two Indians, started up the river last Friday morning in a skiff for the purpose of catching driftwood. (Vfterrencb'Dg a point betwocn twelve and fifteen miles up the river tho boa', becoming unmanageable, was drawn into an ediiy, and disappeared in an instant. The skiff at the time was near a steep cliff of roclcs, whose walls were two hundred feet in height, and the Indians, observing that the eddy was about swallowing the boat and crew, jumped out and clung to the rocks and Gooch endeavored to do the same thing after them. He secured a slight hold to the perpendicular side of the cliff, clung to it only for a moment, then fell into the water and was seen no more. Coleman sprang from the stern of the skiff out into tho river and got beyond tho eddy, where he watched for the appearance of the boat. He had not long to wait, but it seemed to Him ages, when he caught sight of it, bottom upwards, a few yards down the river, when he swum after it, overtaking and clinging to it. LATE NEWS. The management of a great hotel requires »s much active ability as the command of a brigade iu the field. The same attention to details is necessary, and a strict system, which approaches military discipline, is followed. The profits of a hotel may be largely diminished or frittered away entirely through lack of judgment on the part of the heads of departments and through the various leakages that are apt to occur in every large establishment. In speaking of the losses of hotels, a hotel man said recently : 3 O'CLOCK 1*. HI. Gleaned and Condensed from this Morn- ing's Papers.

" Iii a welljuanngcd hotel, liowcvcr large, the losses are not so great as is often supposed. Take the provisions. 'With earoful buying and adequate ice house and cspling rooms, there should be very little wasted. Things that are not used as originally intended can be utilized in some other way, as, for example, fruit which is not available for desert can bo turned into tarts and pies. But the greatest loss iu food is caused by the guests themselves table d'hote. Of course u first class houso presents a bill of fare for any meal which contains more than five men can eat. There are some people, however, v. ho are not accustomed to the best fare, Hid are unablo to make selections, and they simply go iu on the principle of getting theii money's worth. So tliry order everything, and, if at dinner, go straight through from soup to coffee, callivg for every dish that the menu contains. Of course, they can't eat one quarter of the [\mount, and so tWy '.cave n great deal to bo wasted. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL present incumbent, for Congress, yesterday ture. Col.

There was no time to lose. Another chance between life and death, and that chance perhaps was the only one in a thousand. The resolution was formed one moment and executed the next. The skiff was in the midst of the rapids, standing on end; another breaker and over it went. This was an indescribable moment to Coleman, whose sole reliance had deserted him, as he felt himself a prisoner in the hands of death, and though he had scarce ly known his strength before here was a desperate opportunity for his test, and he says that he felt that he was a mere straw at the mercy of a wave one second and an eddy the The now laws for tho regulation of tho press in Russia require that all newspapers, after receiving a third warning from the Censorship inust bo submitted to Censors before publica- II.

The guest writes bis orders on a check, which the waiter takes to the cashier's desk, where tho prices are put 011 aud the check stamped. But while the guest is eating his meal, the waiter secretly makes out another chcck with the same orders, but with the prices increased fiom ten to fifty per cent. Then he bauds this reused check to the guest for pay. ment, but gives to the cashier the first check with the proper prices, aud pockets tho difference. If the guest pass his chock without dose examination, as he is likely to do if he has ladieB with him, of course ho is swindled, aud we cau't prevent it. I have heard people say they wouldn't go to the Manhattan, Brighton or Long Branch hotels again because the prices were so outrageou", and I knew at once that tho waiters had raised their checks. The only romedy is for tho guest to carefully compare tho prices on his check with those on the bill of fare. First class waiters, as a rule, are very smart meu. They are usually French, German or Italian, generally speak two, three, or four languages, and often have some education. Tho best waiter I ever knew was something of Ik linguist, something of a musician, and no mean artist. Then he was an admirable waiter, and had tho knack of satisfactorily serving a great many people at the same thne. His fees were very large. He received the usual salary of $30 or $35 a month and board. We offered him the position of head waiter at a salary of $100 a month and board, and he refused it. He told me afterward that he couldn't afford to loso money by taking the place ; so you see what his fees must have amouutod to.

The Explosion at Cairo. Here was waged a fierce and protracted struggle for life between a powerful man and skilful swimmer, weighing 225 pounds, and first *i whirlpool and then a rapid, whose force and size and danger can never be realized except by the man whose life was trembling in the balance; but courage and human strength at last prevailed, and tho brave man swam on over rapids and through . whirlpools for the distance of three of as perilous miles as was probably ever won by man. Who can imagine his feelings as he reached in safety and crawled upon the river bank, where he lay for some time completely exhausted? As soon as he had regained sufficient strength Coleman set out for the canyon, and, shoeless and naked, after a tramp of six miles ov »r tho barren, rocky mountains and through deep canyons of burning sands in the heat of a broiling suu, he arrived, his feet bleeding and fearfully lacerated by the sharp rocks.—Fioche liec* ord.

Wo hope they will succeed, but don't bo too hard on tho poor fellow. "Washington, Sept. 28.—A gentleman who C 'aims to liave personal knowledge Bays that the resignation of Secretary Folger is now in the hands of tlio Secretary of State, subject to tho official notilicatiou of his nomination for Governor of New York and his formal acceptance of tho same. The fact that lie has gono to Geneva, where ho will bo met by the committee, carrying with him a large quantity of untinished business to be attended to there, gives rife to the belief that ho does not intend to return to Washington. The position lie plaeoa himself in by his hesitation in announcing his purpose to resign is very much regretted by his friends, who aro as anxious as his enemies hero to have him give up tho Treasury portfolio. Certain people who havo pretty thoroughly canvassed tho mattor of Secretary Folgor's successor have narrowed the number of candidates down to two, Assistant Secretary New, of Indiann, and ox- Senator Piatt, of Now York.

Oil City, Sept. 2S.—The declino which was a marked feature of yesterday's market continued this foronoon. The unprecedentedly high rates of carrying engender a feeling of weakness. A seemingly general desiro to get out caused the market to decline. It opened a cent lower thau last night's close, and declined to 83, advanced to 83f, the highest price of the session, then gradually sank and closed at 80 bid for cash. The close of the day was 8Gj.

Fearful Adventure of n Frontiersman !■ the ItnpiilH of tlie Colorado Uiver. Where the Losses Occur mid the Profits Accrue. A coirc spondent, writing from El Dorado Cuuyon, Nev., says: Another of our oldtimers has been swollowed np by the treacherous Colorado. Barney Coleman and Benjamin Goocb, accompanied by two Indians, started up the river last Friday morning in a skiff for the purpose of catching driftwood. (Vfterrencb'Dg a point betwocn twelve and fifteen miles up the river tho boa', becoming unmanageable, was drawn into an ediiy, and disappeared in an instant. The skiff at the time was near a steep cliff of roclcs, whose walls were two hundred feet in height, and the Indians, observing that the eddy was about swallowing the boat and crew, jumped out and clung to the rocks and Gooch endeavored to do the same thing after them. He secured a slight hold to the perpendicular side of the cliff, clung to it only for a moment, then fell into the water and was seen no more. Coleman sprang from the stern of the skiff out into tho river and got beyond tho eddy, where he watched for the appearance of the boat. He had not long to wait, but it seemed to Him ages, when he caught sight of it, bottom upwards, a few yards down the river, when he swum after it, overtaking and clinging to it. LATE NEWS. The management of a great hotel requires »s much active ability as the command of a brigade iu the field. The same attention to details is necessary, and a strict system, which approaches military discipline, is followed. The profits of a hotel may be largely diminished or frittered away entirely through lack of judgment on the part of the heads of departments and through the various leakages that are apt to occur in every large establishment. In speaking of the losses of hotels, a hotel man said recently : 3 O'CLOCK 1*. HI. Gleaned and Condensed from this Morn- ing's Papers.

'With earoful buying and adequate ice house and cspling rooms, there should be very little wasted. Things that are not used as originally intended can be utilized in some other way, as, for example, fruit which is not available for desert can bo turned into tarts and pies. But the greatest loss iu food is caused by the guests themselves table d'hote. Of course u first class houso presents a bill of fare for any meal which contains more than five men can eat. There are some people, however, v. ho are not accustomed to the best fare, Hid are unablo to make selections, and they simply go iu on the principle of getting theii money's worth. So tliry order everything, and, if at dinner, go straight through from soup to coffee, callivg for every dish that the menu contains. Of course, they can't eat one quarter of the [\mount, and so tWy '.cave n great deal to bo wasted. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL present incumbent, for Congress, yesterday ture. Col.

There was no time to lose. Another chance between life and death, and that chance perhaps was the only one in a thousand. The resolution was formed one moment and executed the next. The skiff was in the midst of the rapids, standing on end; another breaker and over it went. This was an indescribable moment to Coleman, whose sole reliance had deserted him, as he felt himself a prisoner in the hands of death, and though he had scarce ly known his strength before here was a desperate opportunity for his test, and he says that he felt that he was a mere straw at the mercy of a wave one second and an eddy the The now laws for tho regulation of tho press in Russia require that all newspapers, after receiving a third warning from the Censorship inust bo submitted to Censors before publica- II.

The guest writes bis orders on a check, which the waiter takes to the cashier's desk, where tho prices are put 011 aud the check stamped. But while the guest is eating his meal, the waiter secretly makes out another chcck with the same orders, but with the prices increased fiom ten to fifty per cent. Then he bauds this reused check to the guest for pay. ment, but gives to the cashier the first check with the proper prices, aud pockets tho difference. If the guest pass his chock without dose examination, as he is likely to do if he has ladieB with him, of course ho is swindled, aud we cau't prevent it. I have heard people say they wouldn't go to the Manhattan, Brighton or Long Branch hotels again because the prices were so outrageou", and I knew at once that tho waiters had raised their checks. The only romedy is for tho guest to carefully compare tho prices on his check with those on the bill of fare. First class waiters, as a rule, are very smart meu. They are usually French, German or Italian, generally speak two, three, or four languages, and often have some education. Tho best waiter I ever knew was something of Ik linguist, something of a musician, and no mean artist. Then he was an admirable waiter, and had tho knack of satisfactorily serving a great many people at the same thne. His fees were very large. He received the usual salary of $30 or $35 a month and board. We offered him the position of head waiter at a salary of $100 a month and board, and he refused it. He told me afterward that he couldn't afford to loso money by taking the place ; so you see what his fees must have amouutod to.

Who can imagine his feelings as he reached in safety and crawled upon the river bank, where he lay for some time completely exhausted? As soon as he had regained sufficient strength Coleman set out for the canyon, and, shoeless and naked, after a tramp of six miles ov »r tho barren, rocky mountains and through deep canyons of burning sands in the heat of a broiling suu, he arrived, his feet bleeding and fearfully lacerated by the sharp rocks.—Fioche liec* ord.

"Washington, Sept. 28.—A gentleman who C 'aims to liave personal knowledge Bays that the resignation of Secretary Folger is now in the hands of tlio Secretary of State, subject to tho official notilicatiou of his nomination for Governor of New York and his formal acceptance of tho same. The fact that lie has gono to Geneva, where ho will bo met by the committee, carrying with him a large quantity of untinished business to be attended to there, gives rife to the belief that ho does not intend to return to Washington. The position lie plaeoa himself in by his hesitation in announcing his purpose to resign is very much regretted by his friends, who aro as anxious as his enemies hero to have him give up tho Treasury portfolio. Certain people who havo pretty thoroughly canvassed tho mattor of Secretary Folgor's successor have narrowed the number of candidates down to two, Assistant Secretary New, of Indiann, and ox- Senator Piatt, of Now York.

Oil City, Sept. 2S.—The declino which was a marked feature of yesterday's market continued this foronoon. The unprecedentedly high rates of carrying engender a feeling of weakness. A seemingly general desiro to get out caused the market to decline.
