DECLARE FOR FREE TRADE.
The Minni1esota 'tate Deinocratie Associa
tion luvsise an Adldres,,
ST. PAUL, Minn., December 24.-The
Minnesota democratic association haspms
ued an a(ldre:s to the party which de
clares for free trade. It says:
"'Tlhero Is but one thing to do. We
must declare for free trade, under
which no Import will be tuxedi except
its like taxed for internal revenue,
We must accept frankly the result ofa
direct tax levied as provided in the con
stitution of tihe United States sufficient
to compensate for the tax removed.
We must take up the work of education
again. We taught the people that pro
tection is wrong-we must teach themn
that free trade is right. It will be the
casier task. It will be an appeal to the
people to recognize what is right. The
right of a man wvho earns a dollar to
buy with it what he will and of whom
he will, without its being toll-ed by, or
through the government."

THREE C(ri
A Eaffir Queen Who ye h
Have Lived That Log
t reople Whom Ghe nutles XaVe Mt*
known Any Osker Monarch and Thtnk
She Has the 01ft of Wr.
petual Life.
Englsnm hi% ltely taken captive a
who, it is Qlaimed, is three-hun
'Veas 0a. She is Queen Majajie,
.e iuler df o tribe of Kafirs, whose
ae is vouohed for by the teputed tra
ditions of her tribe, and who has been
1atnous among the savages of kouthern
frica for her admitted great age.
Generations have spoken of her as be
ing blessed with the gift of perpetual
life, and her game has extended
troughout the uncivilized regions a,
ar north as Egypt.
While it is not for a moment to be
believed that the woman could have
reached this marvelous age, says a for
)ign exchange, the English govern
nent admits that it has authoritatively
raced the history of Queen Majajie's
bribe back for one hundred and ton
rears, (luring which time it, his been
inder her rule. P'eviou.; to thatt period
io authentic records exist, but the Ira
litions of the Caffira crcdit this clueen
wvith having reigned nminy memerations
jofore.
rJA missionary, Rev. Mr. Rutter, who
ias lived for twenty-five y:ar.f amiong
hese savages, has informed the British
eovernment that his investigations
;atisfy him the queen hws absolutely
been the head of her tribe since 1'm0,
%nd he could find no trace of any pre
Vious ruler. In fact, the legends of the
people are identified entirely with the
Ptieont queen and ialce no menltion of
any other head of their governenot.
.The queen is described by English
men who have seen her as of light cop
er color, with a frizzy wool on her
Cad. She wears a dress made of tiger
skins, which has a large hood that
usually covers her face.
There is a suggestion of "She" about
this savage queen, for it has been a law
of the tribe that none should look upon
her face onopt her indunas and three
women! Her indunas are the generals
and leaders of her army, and they
nuuober ninety-two. The head induna,
or pominander in chief, is named Jonas,
and he is a man of considerable age,
supposed to be in the neighborhood of
eighty. The other ninety-one are be
tween the ages of thirty and sixty,
and all of them have been prominent

gether In what is known is the Sacred
Iraal, the queen occupying an apairt
ment some thirty feet square, while
the three women kro in small rooms
opening into this.
Around this kraal are numberless
wooden imuage', representing every na
tion of Kaffirland-and all sorts of ani
mals. These images are beautifully
and adroitly carved from wood. So
numerous aro those figures that they
form a veritable forest about the kral,
and winding paths are made among
them leading ip to the entrauce. The
images are colored so that they ap
proach very closely to the flesh tints of
the diferent tribes, and they are
nde thonatural height of the human
beings represented.
Oneo a year the quceen has been in
the habit of personally u per-vising the
slaughter of 140 oxen, whiich ceremony
constitutes one of the religious fetes
of the people. Even upon this occasion
she is not seen, for she is carried by
the indunas in a covered chair to the
place where the ceremony occurs. She
also was required to go at stated peri
ods to an enormous tree in the( forest,
which was known as the medicine
tree, and there, WIth certain cere
monies, the health of her people was
guaranteed for the time being.
The I'nglish general whio took pos
session of the queen's capital and of
her hias permitted the memb~ers of her
tribe to see her, and they come with
the greatest curiosity and~ from many
miles arounid to look uploni the face of
their ruler, one whom they have been
taught all their lives to consider as a
goddess. Tihe English show her every
attention, but it is feared she wiill not
long survive.
Another attempt is to be made to re
peal the differential duty on sugar.
Chairman Wilson, of the ways and
means committee, Saturday introduced
a bill for that purpose.
An official of the Southern railway is

Reports of the storm received fromi
all parts of England show that fim
mnense damage has everywhere been
caused by the recent gales. The loss
wvill reach tens of thousands of pounds.
Many bnildings have been blown down
and telegraph wires have suffered

China has at last decided that it mas
