The Greeks who so frequently took

London promoters have taken up
the Klondike boom with enthusiasm, a
correspondent remarking that ''tbe

with very poor success.
Attention is being called to the
fact that the levying of 20 per cent by
the Canadian government upoa the

just as to attempt to take 20 per cent
of the farmer's products, or one-fifth

The Jackson, (Miss.) News is not

days of Davis, Lamar and George, it is
a scramble of pigmies, that might be
mistaken for a coroner's jury.
In Secretary Sherman's reply to

the preponderance of influence in
Hawa i is favorable to the annexation
of the islands to the United States.
The Mississippi negro knows how to
have fan when he starts out on a
picnic. Last week about 230 negroes
started out on a steamboat excursion
from Yazoo City to Vicksburg, and a
dispatch thus announces the result:
"One negro is deal, another has his
throat cut and the third is in jail; a
woman is in bed with a bullet hole in
her left leg, and a 12-year old China
boy lies at the bottom of the Yazoo
river with his neck broken."
Recently the federal government
was called upon to indemnify the
families of two Italians who were
banged by a mob in Louisiana on sus
picion of murder. Now a negro who
confesses to the murder of no less than
six persons for purposes of robberies
also confesses that he committed the
murder for which the Italians were
mobbed. The mob made no effort to
ascertain who committed the murder,
but hastily murderer the two innocent
men on the merest suspicion.
THE European powers are becoming
posted on the piratical proclivities of
Great Britain. They have about ar
rived at the conclusion that her desire
to withdraw from the concert in rela
tion to Turkey is grounded in her an
xiety to seize the island of Crete. If
this is permitted by the other powers,
which is not probable, of course Eng
land will seize the irlaud "in the inter
est of Christianity," tbe same intere.-t
la which she has drenched every
known continent with human blood
always exactiog heavy indemnity and
perpetual tribute for her benevolence.
Right on the heels of the assertion
of General Blood, British commander
of the disturbed district in India, that
the account of the troubles there have
been greatly exaggerated, comes the
announcement from London that "it is
admitted even in official circles that
the news from India is of the gravest
description." Among the English in
India the belief appears to be general
that the sultan of Turkey is "at the
back of the whole rising." With Eng
land constantly conspiring to disturb
the peace of Turkey, both by arming
and encouraging rebellious subjects to
invite massacre and by uniting the
powers of Europe against him, there is
little wonder that the sultan should
retaliate.

Fare Please,
Sixty-five Degroes were arrested in
Baltimore, Md.. recently, fined SlOeach
and sent to jail in default, for trying to
beat the Western Maryland railroad
out of a ride. Many of them are women.
For some time past it has been the
practice among the negroes to boam
excursion -trains and refuse to py
their fart s after leaving the city lim
its. Fortv policemen a boarded one of
these trains, and at a point just ou'
side of town it was stopped on' a high
trestle Then each person wl.o failed
to produce a ticket was arrested, loaded
into a box cir acd brought ba;k to
town, were all were arraigned and
fined.
American Kails for India.
The ''Ironmonger," of London, hss
been investigating the recent under
bidding of English steel rail makers by
Americai manufacturers, and has
learned that an East Indian railroad
invited tenJers for 7544 ton of rails,
and English rails were offered at an
average of S27 50. The American
quotation, understood to come from
the Maryland Sttel company, wad
$2.'1.50, delivered at Calcutta. Tlr?
tender was acceptsd, together with
the tender for accessories, which was
also lower. The secretary of stats for
India says that further orders for rails
for India have been placed in the
United States. The Bengal and Nag
pur railroad recently faccepted 2000
tons from an American firm at $23,
compared with $27. 2(i, which was the
British bid. Lord George Hamilton
adds that the quality of the material
was tested before acceptance by an of
ficial sent to the United States.
Mexican Central Affairs.
Tbe prospect of good crops on the
main line and branches of tbe Mexican
Central is exceedingly bright. In the
Laguna country, 15,000 laborers will be
requirtd to gather the cotton crop.
Th s number is 5,000 more than was
necessary to pick the cotton last year.
Tbe Centra1 officials have b:en asked,
in view of tL.e large number of hands
required, to make special ratts from
various pjints on their line. There
are air-o reports of abundant crops in
and around San Luis Potosi, there hav
ing been more rain there this year
than in any single year before in nine.
Fiom Irapuato to Amei a, on the Guad
alajara brunch, crops of all kinds are
exceedingly flee. To move these im
mense crops every freight car on the
Central will be needed, and in order to
meet the increase in local freii? h's the
Central has ordered ool box cars, 128
coal cars and twenty-one engines Th.s
is in addition to an order previo-is'y
made for 535 cars and twenty engines,
a prt of which have already been de
livered. Tne aoproximate earnings of
the Mexican Central wbole system for
tbe second quarter of August were
$216,103, agaitst $171,682 for tbe cor
responding period of 1806, making ao
increase of $44,421; increase for tbe
month, $91,582.
Kural Free Delivery.
It is reported that the experiments
which have been made by tbe post of
fice department in the free delivery
of rural letters h tve, so far, resulted
very much to the department's satis
faction. Fifty thousand dollars was ap
propriated last winter by congress for
i his use, and tests of the feasibility of
i he plan were made in various parts of
the country. H.arly reports which have
come in, especially from some districts
in Maine acd Vermont, tell of the sat
isfaction of the farmers with the new
service, and of their willingness to profit
by it. it la found thit they take ru any
more daily newpapers when they can
have them delivered, and also that the
number of letters carried shows a vi
gorous increase. The rural carrier
mates one trip a day over a distance of
between sixteen and tweDty-four miles.
He sui plies his own conveyance horse
and cart or bicycle. It? has been
found that responsible men are will
ing to do th's work for an annual sti
pend ranging from $175 upwards, te
average pay being about $300. It is
estimated that at that rate sixty rail
lion dollars (about half the annual pen
sion bill) would provide rural free
delivery all over tbe United States
That would mean, among other things,
employment for 200,000 persons. Tte
rural carriers Are al owed to eke out
their stipend by any supplementary
enterprises that do not interfere with
their dut'es, as to sell stamps or sta
tionery and receive and deliver ex
press parcels or telegrams. Where
farmers live tome distance from tne
road their mail is left in box s at con
venient po'nts by tbe roadside, from
which also letters are collected. Hr-

NATURE'S LAKE OF SOFT SOAP.
ACurlona Formation In tlie Far North
west Whlon l.nthrrn nt a Touch.
The Great Northern Railway com
pany lately announced a rate of 00 cents
per 100 pounds on soap slush from
Northern Pacific coast points to Chi
cago and Mississippi and Missouri river
points, says the Seattle Times. Some
one has requested a rate on this com
modity, but there docs not appear to
be many people ivho know what soap
slush is. One ingenious gentleman said
that it was the product of certain small
lakes on the line of the road that are
filled with a thick silica water, which,
when one's hands are washed in it,
gives a lather that would bring joy to
the heart of any washerwoman or ton
sorial artist. When the hair is washed
in this wonderful native product the
head swells with lather till it takes
the proportions of a snow mountain.
Sunburn on the face vanishes as mist
before the sunshine in June.
"There is a lake of this wonderful
liquid," said this veracious informant,
"over on the East side. It is a mile long
and proportionally broad. 13o you
know that we are really yet in ignor
ance of what we have in this country?"
Local soap people, when asked to de
fine and tell about soap slush, were non
plused. They have i t up. Another
party said that not long afro he received
a curious product from Walla Walla, a
kind of sand mixed with soap sub
stances, from which it was thought
:--oap could be probably made here to
supply the washerwomen of the goat
commons in the New York suburbs.
A last effort to determine the char
acter of soap slush elicited the informa
tion that the commodity originated at
Portland, probably at the horse meat
cannery.
THEY WORSHIP GIN BOTTLES.
Km Const African Think Them In
vested with Divine Attributes.
What is the most remarkable monu
ment ever raised to the advance of civ
ilization in Africa? asks the New York
Journal.
A well-known African explorer, Jo
seph Thomson, thought it was a mighty
pyramid of gin bottles. He saw a great
yl:!tliering of Km coast negroes en
gaged in worshiping this strange altar.
Wo strange was this incident that many
people would refuse to believe it. Mr.
Thomson, therefore, took a photograph
of the scene and brought it home to the
ltoyal Geographical society in London.
The Krus are the finest of West Af
rican races. They are, in fact, about
the only people in that part of the
world who will do any work. Kuropean
commerce is practically dependent
on them. To these noble savages gin
is the spirit of the white man's civiliza
tion in more senses than one. It repre
sents his power, his philanthropy and
his religion. As soon as they tasted
gin they fell down and worshiped it.
The more they tasted the more, they
fell down. After awhile they fell down
so much that the European frovern
merets thought.it might be a good thing
to restrict the circulation of gin. The
most remarkable fact of all is that the
contents of the gin bottles were im
bibed by one man, a native, whose over
powering thirst for the white man's
spirits eventually drove him mad. So
the bottles stand a monument to the
monumental drinker of darkest Africa.
Potato Eatrrn.
The people of Germany and Belgium
are the greatest potato eaters. The con
sumption in these countries exceeds
1,000 pounds per head of population.
A Freak of Lightning.
Mr. Jim Pool and Tom Campbell
came in this week from the Sin Carlos
country, where Tom has Leu staying
for the past two or tnrte weeks. 'J.hej
nad a rather close call a few days ago
while out in the hills on their way to
the river. Two Mexicans were with
them and all were ridirg along the
trail Indian fasnion, come little dis
tance apart. A terrible storm came
up, and one of the Mexicans', who was
riding ahead, was struck by lightning
and he and Lis horse were instantly kill
ed. Jim Pool, wbo was riding next to
hix,but some distance back, was knock
ed fiom his horse and stunned so badly
tbat he did not know anything for
some minutes. His horse was also
knocked senseless. Jim says two holes
were burced in h.s hat. The first
thing be remembers was walking
about in the ra n rubbing bis head.
Tom and the Mexican behind were unin
jured, but very naturally somewhat ex
cited, having been close enough to
witness the freaks of the lightning.
Tom was for immediately getting as far
away, from the fatal spot as possible.
On tbe horn of Jim's saddle several
sticks of dynamite were tied up in a
towel, and wben tbe horse lell they
rolltd off. He said he left tbem there,
us he did not think he needed them at
that time. The body of the dead Mex
icau was carried back to San Carlos
and buried. MarfaNew Era.
All of the Yaqui country in Sonora,
Mexico, is one immense deposit of min
eral. Rich gold strikes are being made
daily. Since the Yaqui Indians have
made peace with the Mexican govern
ment and taken lands in severalty, the
pi Ospector is abroad in that hitherto
unexplored region, and gold and silver
and copper mines are discovered of
fabulous wealth. The field is believed
by many to be as rich as the Klondike
country issaid to be atid far more pre
ferable in climate and uivors.tied

SEW MATEKI AL FOB MATCHES.
Wood Will Very Soon Give Way to Paper
Stick.
It is predicted that paper is the com
ing material for matches, says the
Boston "Transcript." The prospect of
the wooden match industry being ap
preciably affected by a new process for
manufacturing matches of paper is
held to be extremely probable, pirti
cularly as the best wood for this pur
pose is constantly growing scarcer ond
more costly. The new matches are
considerably chtaper than the wooden
product and weigh much less, which
counts for much in exportation. The
sticks of the matches consists of paper
rolled together on the bias. The pa
per is rather strong acd porm, an',
when immersed in a solution of wax,
stearine and similar substances, sticks
well together and burns with a bright,
smokeless and odcless flame. Strips
one-half inch in width are first drawn
through the combustible- mass and
then turned by machinery into long,
thin tubes, pieces of tbe ordinary
length of wood or wax matches being
cut off automatically Ly the machine.
When the sticks are cut to size they
are dipped into phosphorus, also by
machinery, and tbe dried head
easily ignites by friction on any sur
face. There 's some talk of ut'lizing the
Dew invention in tbe manufacture of
mutches on an extensive scale for ex
port in India. The invention involves
no waste whatever, telegraph tape,
and converted at one -operation into
match sucks, and a second into match
es that would dry without stoving for a
large part of the year in India. One
thing, however, must be made sure of
that a W8x is used which will harden
at a shade temperature of 140 degrees
Fahrenheit at iesst.
THE POFULISTS DIVORCE.
They Are Aweary of the Alliance With
Popocracy.
The action of Iowa populists
yesterday is regarded by politicians
at Washington as very significant, es
pecially the utterances of Senator Pef
fer in his address before the conven
tion. It is generally regarded as con
veying a threat against any combina
tion of silver men in tte future. Dur
ing the last presidential campaign
Peffer supported the nominees of the
democratic party. Therefore the posi
tion he has row taken is regarded as
an indication that he sees no hope of
success in continuing the alliance, and
is no longer in accord with Senator Al
len and Butler.
The democrats have given the popu
lists and free silver republicans much
cause for dissatisfaction. Peffer sees
himself succeeded in the senate by a
man wbo is really a democrat and tbe
same is true of Dubois. This has un
doubtedly strengthened the middle of
road populist movement.
Fa'hire of the democrats to recognize
their allies by putting a populist or
silver republican on the ticket in Ohio
has contributed towards the distrust in
which they are held. For these rea
sons it is now b-siieved tbat the only
prospect of a continuance of the silver
alliance is between democrats and the
silver republicans, and those populists
who are first of all silver advocates.
Politicians here are confident that
the populists will have an independent
candidate for the presidency, and it is
thought that Peffer will be tbe man.
the Texan Negro.
A statement was recently published
in a New England newspaper that the
colored ptople of Texas were so unhap
py and discontented that they are pre
paring to emigrate to other states.
The editor of the Galveston News em
Dhaticallv denies the statement and in
a most convincing manner shows that
the negroes are the hnppiest creatures
on the face of-the glob . He ! ays in
the first plaue that Texas 'possums are
ripe in October, and the crop is Digger
than that of all other states combined.
With the springs full of catfish in tbe
springtime, the summer filled with
wa'ermelons, the autumn and winter
with 'possums and sweet potatoes, ana
all the seasons percola'.f d with reviv
als, camp mestin s, and "baplizm s,
the Texas negroes are the happiestneor
tals in this world all the j ear round.
It looks us if the Texan had the best
of the argument. N. O. States.
r'ineat ClrasM In Years.
West Texas is now covered with per
haps tbe best coatof grtss it has known
for ten years, and this fact should cause
every stockman to be continually on
his guard against the disastrous con
sequences of tbe usual annual prairie
fire. While we have an abuudance of
grass now, when it becomes a little
drier it can be made to disappear al
most in the twinkling of an eye. All
necessary precautions should be taken
to prevent fire and campers sbould be

A Gentle Corrective,
is what you ned when your liver be
comes inactive. It's what you get when
you take Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets;
they're free from the violence and the
eriping that come with the ordinary
pill. The best medical authorities
agree that in regulating the bowels
mild methods are preferable. For
ev ry derangement of the liver,
stomach and boweis, these tiny, sugar
coated pills are most effective. They
go about their work in an easy and
natural way, and their good lasts.
Ones usad, they are always in favor.

A Beniarkabk Care of Chronic
Diarrhoea.
In 1862, when I served my country
as a private in company A, 167th Pen
nsylvania Volunteers, I contracted
chronic diarrhoea. It has given me a
grpat deal of trouble ever since I have
tried a dozen different medicines and
several prominent doctors without any
permanent relief. Not long ago a friend
sent me a sample bottle of Chamber
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, and after that I bought and
took a 50 cent bottle; and now I r an
say tbat I am entirely cured. I cannot
be thankful enough to you for this
great Remedy, and recommend it to
all suffering veterans. If in doubt write
me. Yours gratefully, Henry Stein-
