The Colored Question in Phiiadel-
phia

pnia.
A colored woman from Pincetown,
New Jersey, prosecuted, before Alder
man BETTER, OH Monday, conductor of
the Fifth street railroad ears, named
John c. Schlafer. The proSacutriX made
oath that she wanted to ride up Fifth
street. Upon each car that she desired
to enter she was told to wait for
the next one. She says that growing
weary of waiting, she was determined
to get upon car b, of which. Schlafer was
conductor. She claims that she was
pushed off, and for this enters criminal
prosecution. The conductor entered
bail in SIX hundred dollars to answer Mt
court.
The circumstances of the case, says
the Ne,rs, are peculiar, and as matter
of bald fac. the'reporter gives them
without comment. For some months
the Tenth street railroad made no dis
tinction for color in people who wished
to ride in their cars. The receipts of the
road fell off seventy-five dollars per day
ut once, and from that TO ninety and
one hundred dollars. The directors,
after some weeks trial, held meet
ing, and concluded to devote every
fifth car to colored people, and to snch
whites as would ride with them. Oddly
enough there were then scarce any col
ored people who wanted to ride. In the
vehicles marked 'colored people al
lowed in this car not n face was visi-
BILE. The prosecutrix in this case
could have ridden had she waited three
minutes longer, and the conductor
elected her rs considerably as he could.

Dr..ke.ucss as a Disease.


Msthomania, or the mania for strong
drink, is name recently given to that
chronic stageof habitsfof intoxication
in which it Is regarded as disease,
and to be treated as such rather than as
a vice. There are many cases that have
been and are successfully treated in
this way, and can be in no other. DR..
Albert Day, of the Washington House,
in New York, has cured great many
drunkards, and his success has been en-
tirely owing to taking this view of the
subject. He has treated two thousand
cases, and of these four hundred were
in the stage of deliriam trrmens; and he
has written q work on the subject. In
England this sort of treatment is now
being resorted to, and with success.
Drunkenness may be and often is q
disease, and persons of the highest nat
ural and moral sensibilities are often
driven to desperation, despair, ruin,
and even suicide, by the consciousness
of their inability directly to master
habits of intoxication, which a skillfnl
and conscientious physician would best
enable them to overcome. In some
cases there is q marked tendency to
habits of this sort transmitted hered-
itarily. Good-tempered, sympathizing,
moral nursing is what such patients
seem to want more than anything else.
Hospitals for such are being established
in several places in the United States.
One was in successful operation in
Binghamton, New. York, when the
buildings were unfortunately destroyed
by fire. In Philadelphia there is ar as
ISOLATION chartered by the Legislature
for the same purpose. The treatment
OF insanity as disease, instead of a
calamity that cannot be helped, has
revolutionized in the most beneficial
way everything connected with those
affected with mental infrmaties. The
treatment Of drunkenness in the same
way may effect Somewhat similar re-
suits. ..E.

Schenck,s Seaweed Tonic.

This medicine, invented by DR.. J. II. ScHEScK
of Philadelphia, Is intended to dissolve the foo,
and make it into chyme, the first process Of di.
gestion. By cleansing the stomach with
Schenck's Mandrake Pills, the Tonic soon re.
stores the appetite. and food that could not be
eaten before using 1t win be easily diGested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and liver ID
made healthy and the appetite restored, hence the
Tonic and Pills are required in nearly every case
of consumption. half dozen bottles OF the
SEAwEED TONIC and three OF four boxes Of
the MANDRAKE PILLS will cure any ordinary
case of dyspepsia.
Dr. SCHENCk makes professional visits in New
York, Boston, and at his principal Office in
Philadelphia every week. See daily papers Of
each place, or his pamphlet on consumption, for
his days of visitation.

Thsfsbor Of Tie protection mountain
brought forth . very little mouse-the
duty on wool. The result was sniff
cient, however, to give an ideaof the
way in which tariffs benefit the work

tainty, all the proprietors of wooden
factories in Rhode Island united in Civ

wages of the latter would be reduced
ten per cent. The men, women and
children who work in these factories
will accordingly have just one-teath

afford it, but it is q luxury in which
people of limited means cannot afford

BY conversing with our architects we
learn that the prospects for building
were never more iattering in Wheeling
than at this time. Already, the owners
of property have commenced operations
of improvement. Dwellings are still III
demand and rents in general retain their
former extreme altitude, which is very
gratifying TO landlords at least, who'
having made good thing, are extend
ing their facilities with u view to max
ing a still better thing i'll the future.
Beside the private residences which are
now in process of construction, or Will
soon be, capitalists should erect cot

should go up. They could be built III II

mendable enterprise could not be en-
gagged in by our capitalists, and we
trast they may thus enlarge their sphere
of usefulness to the poorer classes III our
community. Stores and shops are also
in GREAT demand. We do not know o! Il
vacant one, and owners of property i'll
suitable localities are building to meet
The increased requirements of trade.
While the present activity in improve
,,cnts is in Il great measure due to the
rapid growth Of the city, the increase
OF its trade and business, and the con-
seauent demand for dwellings, manu-
factories, shops, and stores, it is also
partly due 20 decline i'll the cost OF
material. The present winter has been
exceedingly favorable for numbering
operations in the woods The protract-
ed season of sleighlng has furnished
opportunity for hauling to the banks OF
the streams an immense supply OF logs
which the freshets have tloated down to
the mills to be manufactured into lum-
Der. The result must be largely in
creased supply. One of the laws OF
trade is that the relative condition OF
supply and demand regulates the price.
So, while the demand will undoubtedly
he great, the supply must, it seems to
us. be far in excess, and we confidently
look for a still further reduction in
prices. Equally with lumber, a most
important material used in building is
brick. The condition of the brick mar
ket has heretofore had governing in
fluence on building operations. Last
year brick were at one time held rs high
as SIS per thousand, figures which
frightened mauy ont of their purpose
who were intending to build. Now,
however, the price ranges from 80 to
$40, and builders very generally antici'
pate decline, some of them predicting
that they will be able to buy brick be.
fore midsummer for s. to S.. There is
no donbt that there will be plenty of
brick in the market as soon rs the sea-
son is fairly opened.
Material and labor have not harmon
lied. While all kinds of the former
have materially decreased in price, the
latter has stood its ground pretty firmly.
In skilled labor there has been no
change of remuneration whatever. But
rates of common labor are somewhat
lower than at the same time last year.

An Instance


OF almost superhuman endurance and
perseverance occurred in San Meteo
county, California, short timee' since.
A wood chopper was caught by red
wood tree, three feet in diameter, which
fell across both legs. 4 fierce storm
was progressing, and through the live
long night the sufferer madly shrieked
for assistance, only 10 be answered by
the hooking winds that howled through
the surrounding forest. The. next
morning the sufferer perceived his AK
within reach, and hope sprang up i'll his
! heart. Lying PROSTATE on his back, he
commenced the weary task Of chopping
the tree IN twain. At each blow of the
Ak the huge tree settled closer upon his
limbs, crushing them all to a jelly. but
still he persevered, and after two days
of uureiuitted toll, his task was accom-
plished. Manglcd and crushed as he
was, he crawled to distant cabin.
Medical aid was called I'D both legs
were amputated. Incredible as it
seems, the man is likely to recover.
