How THE IMPORTED AFRICANS WORK
of the Congo negroes brought to Savannah,
Georgia, in the yacht Wanderer have BEEN
smugeled into Mississippi. They are on pianl
tation, bordering on the Mississippi Centra
Railroad. between Canton and Durant We
saw them ourself They are in the possession
of very genteel-looking gentleman named
Montague. He says they are obedlent, and
when encouraged to labor they work vigorously
We do not think they are valuable, from the
fact that we believe no white man would like to
oversee a set of such hideous, senseless-looking
creatures; besides, it would, in our opinion, be
a great deal of trouble to keep them at work
They can ask for tobacco and whisky, and per
hans chew the former aud drink the latter, but
they can do nothing else. They know nothing
about the use of clothing, and would as soon
place a pair pants on their shoulders as thslr
legs. One of them has formed great fancy
for umbrellas, and when couple ofyoung ladies
approached him, dressed in the present exten.
sive fashion, he down with his hoe and pursued
one of them with all possible speed, and as be
came near her he vigorously grabbed at the skirt
| OF her dress, but before he succeeded IN getting
hold of il, one Of the attaches Of the MississiP-
| pi Central Rliiroad succeeded in knocking him
down. Mr.. Montague then took him in charge
and asked him in his own gibberish what he
pursued the lady for, when he replied that snt
had an umbrella under her dress and he wanted

A FiIIibus,er Crew and Joke.

The wreck of the Susan is thus accounted
for. The regular sailors deserted before the
vessel got out of Mobile Bay. Capt Maury
had to depend upon land lubbers, and con-
verted them into sailors by short and novel
process. Sea phrases were all Greek to the
newly shipped green 'uns. That they were in
yeterate card players Capt, NJ knew. He tied
card to each rope used in navigating the Su-
san, and his orders ran after this fashion
"Haul on the ace of clubs ~ "Let 90 the
king of diamonds :" "Belay on the deuce
of spades !" run up the queen of hearts p
DC By this means the extemporized sailors
soon got the hang of the ropes, and af
fairs went on pretty smoothly until at the
close of an early morning game the Susan went
it blind and got broke on a coral bank.

uore Crushing Out !

OBERLIN, Jan. II, 1903.
DR.R LKAprR = The work of Judicial
crushing out" so ausPiciousIy begun in these
parts by the Indictment of ''the 81 felons Of LO-
rain" seems to progress without faltering, and
is being executed ''to the farthestex'ent" by the
tools of the Slave power within and for the
Northern District of Ohio.
This is demonstrated by an outrage commit
ted in the name and by the authority of the de-
tested Fugitive Slave Act, the recital of which
should stir the blood of the calmest and arouse
the most stupid, unless alas the people are pre-
pared to submit their necks to the yoke with
out resistance,
The facts referred TO are as follows; a young
man by the name of Vim. S. Lincoln, enc of
the many worthy and energetic students, who
by their unaided exertions are struggling
against poverty. determined to secure an educa-
ton at Oborlin College, moved by the prompt
ings of a generous heart, after asking the guild
aI,ce OF his Heavenly Father, joined the band of
rcscuers whose exertions caused the frightened
slaye catcher and his valorous aids, the Marshal
and his deputy, to give up the negro John Price,
at Wellington, on the memorable 18th of Sep
tember last
| When Marshal johnson visited 0berlin with
his writs, young Lincoln had left for the pu.-
pose of teaching a winter school in the county
OF Franklin, some IL miles distant from Co
lumbus; and there he was quietly engaged in the
discharge of his duties as a teacher, until on
Friday last, when within school hours, deputy
Marshal, named Davis, and an assistant, armed
with weapons, entered the school room, seized
Lincoln, who was not only unarmed but Offered
no resistance, put him in irons, thrust him into
a buggy and carried him to Columbus.
In vain did Mr.. L. remonstrate against sucf
such cruel treatment; in vain did he plead tha
that his hand-euffs might be removed while en-
iering Columbus, so as to spare the people suel
a humiliating spectacle in the very capital o
Ohio--within sight of the State House wher
the Legislature is now convened and the Su
preme Court now in session, On rushed thes,
miserable tools of party with their victim, glOat
ing doubtless over the grand working of tn
crushing out process now being accomplished
aad thrust young Lincoln into the county jai
with common felons. There he remained unit
Saturday m1rning-the tenant of a cell-denie,
the privilege of seeing any of the many friend
of freedom who would have gladly interposet
in his behalf.
The noon train brought the prisoner unde

TERRIBLE CAsUALrY IN LoNDoN.-A fearful
catastrophe occurred at the Victoria Theater,
London on the 9th. Just before the termina-
ton of an afternoon performance, and when the
gallery stairs were crowded with the evening
audience waiting for admission, a false alarm OF
fire was raised, and panic set in, during which
the pressure on the gallery stairs was such that
sixteen boys were crushed and tramPled to
death, while many more were injured The
theater is situated in very low neighborhood,
and so rapidly did the excitement abate that the
evening performance was proceeded with as us

Gu1TA PERcHA PENs.-Schlesinger's Patent,
Platina pointed, Gutta Pereha Pens, manufac-
tured in London, have now been sold and test
ed in this country for dozen years or SO, and
are highly approved. The body is metallic,
coated with the uneorosive gum, and tipped
with platina, ingredients which form strong,
flexible, and even pointed pen. Thrown with
force into the table, the point will bend and
twist without breaking, and the nib can be
readily Strengthened with the fingers so that it
will write as well as ever The pens are dura-
bic and pleasant to use, and are cheap for the
good service it they render.

Immunity IN TowNs FROM INJURY BY LIGHs-
sISG One of the most remarkable facts recor-
ded by N. Boudin is the immunity which towns,
especially the larger and more poPulous ones,
cDjoyfrom accident to life by lightning Thus be-
teen 1900 and 1857 not a single death was re-
corded from this cause in Paris; and IN l7s6 1t
was calculated that out of 100000 deaths in
London during thirty years, only two had been
produced by lightning. Comparing these num-
hers with the total number of deaths from this
cause, and with the fact that 25 per cent. of all
happen under trees, he holds it reasonable to
conclude "that lightning finds more victims in
the open countrythan in cities" The annual av-
erage number of deaths by lightning in France
from 1885 to 1852, inclusive, was Y. In 1885
there were Ill.

f-.= almost unknown Nobrarah Valley lies north
1rl of the valley OF the Platte, and extending al
most parallel with II, from the Missouri river to
the hills which skirt the eastern slope OF the

Niobrarah Valley, recent explorations have
Demonstrated that ii has all the clements OF

Astounding in fne rich prairie country and NV

abundance of timber and building stone, both

of the Niobrarah from the point where it inter

r-s ys 7t-4 affords highway some hundreds of miles
nearer to the Pacific than any other route, and
it is 400 miles nearer Fort Laramie from the
Missouri By way of this valley than it is from

It Is bat two years snce the FIRST surveys and
