BALTIMORE, Nd, May REV. John
Jasper, the colored philosopher Of
Richmond, Virginia, lectured here to-
night proving by many texts from the
Bible that ode sun do move and that
the earth lie square. His audience was
much amused and loudly applauded
him. He quoted Joshua, Isaiah and the
Psalms 10 prove that he was right, and
warned bis hearers not to Az In the
face Of Code word by doubling his
theory. He said the schools did not
teach that the word crises" meant 10
stand still, and the Bible says the sun
rises. When the world moves he said
everybody on It would know it, for
then every thing on 1t would move,
even the dead in their graves would
come forth. He was as earnest, and al
times nearly as eloquent, as Bob" In.

POOR MEN IN THE HILLS.

ducements as a profitable field for the labor
ing a The labor supply for the present
year is abundant at from $500 to $3.50 per

deep to require much labor in extracting
the ore the mills give employment to but
comparatively few the ranchers are not
numerous, and every avenue to which labor.
ers, whether mechanics, tradesmen or pro-
fessional men, could look for employment
is already more than supplied. To men Of
means and nerve to invest, the Black Hills
is the best field 1 know of. To the prospec-
tor who has a few hundred dollars laid by
to bear necessary expenses while hunting
for paying mines, the chances are in his
favor; but to the absolutely poor man We

THE DANGERS OF REPRESENTATION.

From the Danbury News.
We were passing two girls who were lean,
ing over a fence In mutual converse, when
one said to the other:
II have got something to tell you"
"What is il? was the eager inquiry.
"Oh, I can't tell you now. But I'll tell
you some time"
What a common thing this is among
young girls. How often il is heard. II
have got something to tell you. I can't tell
you now, but l will some time" Why not
now? Why some time? Little does the
careless utterer of these words realize their
cad import. Some time may never come.
Delays are dangerous. We should never
put off until tomorrow what we can do to-
day, for the morrow may Lever come.
What We have got to tell our friends should
be told them now. Only a short time age
this same remark was made by one youre
girl to another. She said:
ooh, I've got something to tell you"
"Wha is it?"
"Oh, l won't tell you now"
"Why not ?" pleaded her companion.
ooh, 1 can't. But I'll tell you some
time"
Thus they parted. They never met again
in this life. Within twenty -four hours the
pleader was taken violently i'll, and was
soon dead. What her friend wanted to tell
her was that che was to have q dress
trimmed with navy-blue silk but she put
off the information to another time, and
she who thirsted for the words died, and
never knew what was to take place.

And that brought the money, just as one
good turn deserves another. Her wit was
SO successful that she tried again the next
week.

"Well, you can't have it. You called me
a bear last night" said her husband.
Oh, we'll, dear, you know it was only be-
cause you were so fond of h~ugRing."
1t hit him just right again, and she got
the money, and something extra.
He left his pretty wife and hurried off to
business, saying. ut takes a fortune to
keep such a wife. but it's worth it."

II the utterances of a man who, by his
own admission, has repeatedly perjured
himself are to have any credence attached
to them, James E. Anderson, the first
witness before the Potter investigating CON-
mittee, will finally succeed in making the
world believe that be is as precious a scoun.
drel as ever went unhung. The only per.
sons upon whom his developments thus far
fasten the stain of guilt are himself and
Stanley Matthews. In Anderson's fate the
people have little interest and In the move
ments of that justice which is liable to over.
take Matthews the chief hope 10 that it may
be swift and sure. Anderson is politician
who barters his honor for gain and when
the price Of that commodity is quoted low
10 the market he turns upon the bears and
attempts to bull quotations with a mass of
charges which rest only upon his unsub.
stantiated oath. The evidence he produces
against Stanley Matthews is in the shape of
numerous letters written by that individual,
the g%cnuireness o fwhich cannot be doubted.
They convey the intelligence that the pure
minded Stanley wanted to secure a federal
position for Mr.. Anderson in payment for
political work done in Louisiana, and 1t can
be said to the credit of the administration
that it is because of his failure in this di.
rection that Anderson is now on the wit
ness stand. Should these developments re.
legate Mr.. Matthews to private life the re-
publican party, the democratic party and
the liberal party will each lose an active
and INSCRIPTIONS member. Against the
integrity of the party in Louisiana and of
Secretary Sherman the evidence Of an ir-
responsible political hummer like Anderson
will hardly stand. Counteracting testimony
will be taken which will show to what des-
perats ends. a disappointed office seeker may
attain. \
