THE ORIGINAL CIVIL RIGHTS BILL
"Well, professor" said Senator Sumner 10
Professor Lsngston, as the latter dropped
in to see him, soon after the ratification of
the fifteenth amendment, "I suppose you
have now got all you want for your peo-
ple." "By no means" was the response,
and Langston began TO detail the discrim-
nations against his race in Southern States,
by which colored persons were excluded
from first class cars on railways, slowed
away under the skylights in theaters, de-
MED accommodations in taverns, and even
refused interment In the same cemeteries
with whites. every WE'LL" said the sena-
tor, "if you will draw up such bill as you
want, will introduce II in the Senate and
do all can to get 1t through" Langston
took him at his word and drafted the orig
inal civil rights bill, which Mr.. Sumner in
troduced without changing word. Lang
ston's own argument in favor OF the bill
was this: That as long az the negro Is de-
MED social equality, their equality in all
other respects will not be fully recognized,
and that unless their right to social equAli-
ty is guaranteed by law that right will new
er be secured. Probably all the opponents
Of the bill within the republican party ad-
NIT the soundnssS Of the first proposition,
but they answer that 1t is impossible to es-
tablish social equality by legislation.

The Origin Of Man.
CHAPTER 1.

Twas lovely summer morning in the
year 9,001 before Christ. The woods Of
Senegambia were clothed in their falrest
costume; the sky was one vast sheet Of
blue. Everything, in short, was full Of
sweetness and light, except the lovely
Lady Adellza de ChimpanEee. She was In
the dumps. Moodily she rubbed her
shoulders against a huge palm tree, and
while performing that act heaving a vast
sigh. Just at that moment her mamma
dropped from the tree above her.
"My daughter" said the Duchess de
Chimpanzee, "why that sighH"
"Ah, mamms, look at me-" said Lady
Adeliza. "See how different 1 am from
the rest Of our tribe. See how white am
becoming"
"My daughter" said the Duchess Ian =
guidly, as she seated herself on q conven-
lent boulder, "You should be proud of the
difference. We are higher race"
III don't know, mamma. See what little
caudal appendages we have; all the other
folks can hang from the trees by their
tails, but we are compelled TO sit on the
limbs"
I'VE are advancing, my dear. You are
whittier than am; you can talk In your
youth, could not till middle age your
grandmother, as you know, can only grunt
1t. You are moving to higher sphere"
"Well, mamma, none of our folks will
marry me-" said Lady Adeliza, pouting.
mo, my child IL has been decreed that
there should be a selection of the fittest in
marriage. We have offered you to the
Prince dourang outang, who is even
whittier than you are, as a wife,"
80, mamma" gushed the lady Adeliza,
that's spleudid. Will he come soon?
"Restrain yourself. People Of high
blood and short caudal appendages never
get excited. He will be here in short
time"
Lady Adeliza went away to look for CO.
coa-nuts; the Duchess sat on the rock,
and reflectively scratched her head.

CHAPTER II,

The Duke de Chimpanzee was chief of
very large tribe. If he had been in the
show business he would have made his
everlasting fortune. He had but one child,
the Lady Adeliza, and, as she would inher-
it the live stock over which he ruled, many
of the neighboring chiefs desired to marry
her. Her parents. however, resolved that
she should be, If possible the fountain head
of the pew race TO which all their traditions
taught them they were working up. They
determined that she should wed the Prince
dourang outang. The Duke proposed the
matter to the prince.
"Aw ~ said the prince, as he adjusted
his eye-glass, SIS it nicer"
"She is very beautiful" replied the
duke.
"Awr' said the prince, "give it-aw-
much stampsY'
81 shall give her all Ethiopia" replied
the duke"
II will-aw-step down, and-aw-look
at it," murmured the prince carelessly.
"By surprise, you know
This was agreed upon, and the duke de-
parted.
The prince knew his worth; he was
quite white, and he was not troubled with
the slightest particle of caudal appendage,
but Ethiopia was big prize, and he re-
solved 10 win it.
One week after the duke had offered his
daughter, the prince started for Senegam-
bia with the intention of looking at the fair
face of Lady Adeliza.

courage, and say the Lords Prayer to him.
Then, when Agnes had got warm, the old
woman took her hand and led her into the
sick-room. Botolf lay there, with long
beard and hollow eyes, and he gazed at
her intently; but she did not think he
looked dreadful, and she was not afraid.
"Do you forgive meH" he whispered.
She supposed she ought to say yes"
and she said "yes," accordingly.
Then he smiled, and tried to raise him
self in the bed, but his strength failed, and
he remained lying.
She began at once 10 say the Lords Pray
er; but he made a movement as though to
bid her pause, and pointed to his breast
SO she laid her hands there this was what
she thought he intended her TO do; and he
directly laid one Of his clsmmy, ice-cold,
bony hands, upon her little warm ones,
then closed his eyes. When she found he
did not say anything afer she had finished
the prayer, she did not venture to remove
her hands, but just begun to say it again.
When she had said 1t for the third time,
the old woman came in, looked, and said,
"You can leave il off now, my dear-he's

when his eyes'fell upon lovely chimpan-
zee sitting in a shallow brook sucking q
cocoa nut. She was the loveliest creature
he had ever seen. He raised his eye-g glass
and stared at her until her eyes fell in
modest confusion.
Fair chimpanzee," said he, twill not
you-aw-tell me your-aw-name.',
"Adelize," whispered she.
The duchess de Chimpanzee, who had
witnessed the meeting from behind a
clump OF bushes, chuckled, and slid off on
her left ear.
"Ade!iza," sighed the prince, "thou art
-aw-beautiful Wilt thou-aw-marry
me ?'
The Lady Adelza threw the remains Of
her cocoa nut at the head of chimpan1ee
who was loaang in a neighboring tree, fell
into the arms of the prince, and gently
murmured, 81 am all thine"
They were married in great splendor.
The Right Rev. Bishop Baboon, assisted
by the Rev. Simiadar Ape, performed the
ceremony. The bridesmaids wore their
natural clothes. The choir sang that love-
ly anthem, Monkey married the baboon's
sister," Lady AdeliEa and her parents
rubbed noses, and then the bride started
on her tour on an elephant with one trunk.

"old Abe" the pet eagle of the Eighth
Wisconsin Regiment during the civil war,
is still alive, and domiciled as a pensioner
at the capitol of its native State. The bird
was in nineteen pitched battles and as
many as eighteen skirmishes, and had sew

confederate bullet He would enjoy brisk
fight as well as any soldier, and his harsh
screams of defiance at The enemy are said
to have been often heard distinctly above
the din Of musketry and cannon. He has

The Mystery OF the Human Heart.
Midnight pastl Nor a sound Of Ausht

sat by the dying Are, and thought
! OF the dear dead woman up stairs.
A night Of tears! for the gusty rain
Had ceased, but the caves were dripping yet
And the moon looked forth, as though in pain,
With her face all white and wct
Nobody with me, my watch to keep,
But the friend of my bosom, the man love;
And grief had sent him fast to sleep
In the chamber up above.
Nobody else in the country place
All round, that knew Of my loss beside,
But the good Young priest with the RaphAel-fAce,
Who confessed her when she died.
That good youne priest Ia Of gentle nerve,
And my grief had moved him beyond control;
For his lips grew white, as could observe,
when he speeded her parting soul
I sat by the dreary hearth alone;
thought Of the pleasant days Of yore
I said, 1.-THE stan Of my life is gomez
The woman loved is more.
"on her cold, dead bosom my portrait lies,
Which next to her heart she used to wear
Haunting Il DER with her tender eyes
when my face was not there.
at is set all around with rubies red,
And pearls which Peri might have kept;
For each ruby there my heart hath blsd,
For each pearl my eyes have wept"
Aud said, "The thing is precious to me-
They will bury her soon in the churehyard clay;
II lies on her heart, and lost must be
If do not take it away"
l lighted my lamp at the dying fame,
And crept up the stairs that creaked for fright,
Till into the chamber Of death came
Where she lay all In white.
As I stretched my hand held my breath;
turned as l drew the curtains apart;
dared not look on the face Of death;
knew where to nnd her heart.
thought, at hrst as my touch fell there,
1t had warmed that heart to life with love:
For the thing touched was warm, swear,
And could feel It move.
Twas the hand Of a man, that was moving slow
Der the heart Of the dead-from the ether side;
And at once the sweat broke over my brow;
"who is robbipg the corpse9" cried.
Opposite me, by the taper's light,
The friend Of my bosom, the man loved,
Stood over the corpse, and all as white,
And neither Of US moved.
"what do you here, my friend ?" The man
Looked first at me- and then at the dead.
There is portrait here" he began;
"There is. 1t is mine!" said.
Said the friend of my bosom, yours, no doubt,
The portrait was, tina month ago,
When this suffering angel took that out
And placed minc there, know"
This woman, she loved me well." said /
"a month ago." said my friend to me;
''And in your throat" groaned. ''you he!"
He answered, let us see"
Enough l returned, "Let the dead decide;
And whose soever the portrait prove
His shall it be when the cause is tried
Where death is arraigucd by love-"
We found the portrait there, in Its place.
We opened It by the taper's shine:
The gems were all unchanged; the face
Was neither bis Nor mine.
''one nEu drives out another, At least. -
The face Of the portrait there" l cried,
SIS our friends the Raphael 'Aced young priest,
| who confessed her when she died"
