One of the most Imposing monuments

four feet and two Inches thick. The
weight of the monument Is thirty-five
tons. The corners of tho plot are de

RIVAL BLOCKED THE DEAL.
How Ucncrnl ClnrkMin Missed Secur
ing a Real Good Thing.
General Clarkson was the representa
tive of a syndicate of capitalists who
wanted to control the street railway
system of the City of Mexico, says
tho San Francisco Wavo. Dealing with
Mexican officials is purely a game of
patience, and as a rival syndicate en
tertained similar designs, the degree
of forbearance exercised may be im
agined. Tho opponent was a Spaniard,
and he had relations with the govern
ment which made him dangerous
However, tho general dealt with the
president, and finally they agreed to
$11,000,000 as the price of tho property.
To ratify tho transaction tho consent
of a certain high ofllclal had to be
obtained. He succumbed to pressure,
and agreed to sign his name next day.
This document was beforo him, the
pen In his hand, when a messenger
arrived from Diaz, commanding him to
desist. The rival had seen Clarkson
ascending tho treasury stairs, and real
izing by the triumphant expression of
his face that the game was won, rushed
off to tho president and told him the
general was the advance guard of an
American Invasion; that the United
States government having decided to
annex Mexico, had delegated him as
Its representative to obtain tho car
system, and form an army of em
ployes. Lint to a Mexican of Gringo designs,
and there Is no story too Incredible for
tholr gullibility. So posltlvo was tho
effect of tho story on Diaz, that all
negotiations wero at onco dropped and
Clarkson retired. However, tho rival
won nothing, for tho property has re
mained slnco In the hands of the gov
ernment, until bonded recently by a
Callfornlan.
CONSPICUOUS ANACHRONISMS.

A writer at this critical day must bo
vory carrful not to get anything or any
body Into a story or a poem that did not

Such an error, which Is called an ana
ohronlsm, subjects him to ridicule.
It is well known that the works of
Shakespeare, as was inevitable tu tho case
of a comparatively unlearned man, abound
In errors of this sort. Ho Introduces clocks

Monument to Lincoln.
Editor of Tho Tribune.
Sir: Wo, tho undersigned Afro-American
citizens of Scranton, have formed
ourselves into the Lincoln Memorial as
sociation, tho purpose of vhlch Is to
erect a monument sacred to tho memory
of the myrtyred president In this city.
Charity to all, malaco to none, Insplro
us to this effort no less than gratitude
and appreciation for tho Inestlmablo
blessing of liberty ho uchsafed the col
ored rnce, and their prosperity and tho
restoration of nn undivided Union.
Two grand Juries of Lackawanna coun
ty having favorably endorsed the prop
osition to erect a monument to commem
orate the "soldiers and (tailors of tho
lute war," this city can rest with a de
gree of absolute nssuranco that the hon
orable commissioners will In no distant
futuro creditably fulfill this lofty mis
sion. While Justice forbids our abating one
Jot that admiration to which the "sol
diers and sailors" are- entitled, yet tho
highest Instincts of gratitude compel us
to respectfully suggest, as a tribute that
Abraham Lincoln shall also In cither
marble or metal tako his placo If not
at tho head, certainly along Bldo of thoso,
who were under his great command. We
ask It for a race, which, during the
last war, was without a traitor, and
which was neither drafted Into tho mili
tary nor tho naval forces of tho federal
government. A class of peoplo whoso
only flag was that of tho atar3 and
stripes, thus showing tho subllmest allcg
lanco to this republic, and not tho slight
est consideration for tho departed glories
of Africa. A people who today obey tho
constitution of tho United States, who
speak tho same language, discharge tho
same obligations to our country, prac
tically unanimous In conceding tho larg
est liberty to all, whether religious or
civil, and beyond all. Instead of Infidels,
wo aro unflinching believers, not only In
tho Bible, but In a matchless and ever
living God as well.
'TIs well to state Just hero that In 1RG3
a colored washer woman of Virginia
gavo the first sum, which was five dol
lars, toward the first monument In mem
ory of Abraham Lincoln, and that mon
ument stands today in Washington, D.
C, tho entire money being raised by tho
colored race.
The first on our progrnmmo will bo a
lecturo by T. Thomas Fortane, editor of
tho New York Age, on "Abraham Lin
coln," nt Penn Avenue Bnptlst church,
Friday evening, May 21, 1597. At which
tlmo Madamo Georgo C. Overton, of
Wllkes-Barre, a very vorsatllo and tnl
entcd vocalist In her discrlptlvo solos,
will entertain. J. A. Gloster, of Toronto,
Canada, is an elocutionist of raro at

greatest satisfaction. Admission 25 cents.
