a thoughtful writer suggests
that every firm OF architects
should contain at least one
lady partner, to plan pantries,
closets, shelves, hooks, and
places to tuck away things in
dwelIiRg-houses, an evident
necessity which architects OF
the male persuasion have
hitherto failed 10 comprehend
or provide for.

Ecs Diamond Ew.Eola.

For months past the papers
Of the country have tcemed
with accounts Of great diamond
discoveries in the West. These
have all proved false. No dia-
mond digsinfh are been found
but the greatest swindle on
record has been effected. 4
man by the name Of Arnold
. visited South africa some time
( time ago and purchased some
/ fifteen thousand dollars worth
OF rough and inferior dia-
imonds. He also got here and
/ Interchange quantities Of other
gem stones Of cheaper grades.
. With these he sailed, in the
Darlance OF Western miners, a
portion ofdesert country about
thirty miles distant from the
. Pacific railroad. He then pub
lished that he had found dia
.mond diggins and showed
stones he said he had found
which, after test, proved to be
genuine gem stones, diamonds
and others. lie then organized
) a diamond digging company
and put stock in it up for sale
Several capitalists became in
r terested, but being ratherwarJ
would not purchase immedi
ately. These he showed tn
: country he had sailed, by scat
tering the precious stone
about, and thereby proved hi
J, assertions. Consequently tn
i stock began Immediately t
{ sell rapidly, and two million
e of dollars were realized by ~

The little girls who 90 about
with baskets and beg for cold
victuals are very persistent in
81. Louis, and call regularly.
The Republican says: Gone
day when they thus called ut
Mrs. Smiths, guests We're be-
inc entertained, but one OF the
girls, nothing abaShed, march
ed ND TO the table and inquired
if there were any cold vIctuals.
Mrs. Smith, slightly veXed at
the impudence Of the girl,
replied: No they are ali hot
The girl went out on her
dignity, and her companion,
who had remained outside,
seeing the empty basket, eX'
claimed in surprise, 'didn'5 she
give you anything7' NO,
replied the other, she was
SASSY a remark which wa;
heard by the company at th'
table, greatly to their amuse

4 Jewish commission sent
ont from New York to JeruSa-
lem has returned, and made a
report of what they saw,
which the Jewish Times says
sis an additional argument
against the folly Of encourage
ing the migration of the Jews
to a country which has 10
other claim than that of a ven
cradle monument of the past"
The squaIid neucleous of six
teen thousand Jews now in
Palestine does not promise
well for a general gathering
of that people there. The
commission suggests "the gen
eral elimination from all jew
ish prayer books of the por
tons referring TO the hopes OF
Israel in the restitution of the
Holy land to possession of Israe
and the building of the temple
by divine providence"

Since the election and its
have passed away,
that is to thegreat mass Of the
people, about the best thing
The folks can do is to come to
a better understanding with
each other. There is no CON
iiict Of interest between black
men and white men, and the
better way is to admit this
fact at once and set about i'm
proving upon it. The only
issue ut stake is the doing OF
Justice. Each citizen is to be
allowed to choose his own as
sociates. whether white or col
ored. as is being done now,
and has been done for years,
and when disputes arise let
/ the officers decide upon the
merits without any reference
to the parties engaged. White
people are benefited by the
prosperity and intelligence OF
Of the blacks, and it should
be the object Of the superior
class. as the whites call them
saIvas tn extend every facility

an abomination, and an ig

Well, that's just like the great American

shows for the interests Of the Northwest,
especially his part of it, and how he does
love Wisconsin! This phlanthropist spends
much time "requesting' Secretaries and
Congressman to let him "deveope the great

shows his peculiar manner and plan OF de-
veloping.
