What Private Enterprise is Doing for
the HarbOr.

the Harbor.
In the original estimate for the i'm
prOvement of Cheboygan harbor it was
contemplated that the government would
build piers on each side of the channel,
and the estimate was made with this
understanding. Private enterprise has
in great measure saved the govern
ment this part of the expense. Messrs.
Macarthur, Smith & Co. have already
built pier running out 1900 feet on
the west bank, and, we understand, will
still further extend it this season, several
hundred feet. What Macarthur, Smith
& Co. have done and will do for the
west bank of the channel, the ChebOygan
Lumber Company are doing for the east
bank. They have already driven por-
ton of the piles for pier extending out
as far as the present pier of Macarthur,
Smith & Co., and the pile driver is kept
busy driving piles for the completion
of the pier. They say they will keep
pace with the west pier, and as fast as
it is extended they will contine the pier
on their side of the river. The impor-
lance of this work to the harbOr can
hardly be estimated, forming as it does
a complete breakwater affOrding pro-
lection from winds from nOrtheasterly
and nOrthwesterly quarters, the winds
that effect the harbOr. With these piers
completed out to deep water, there
would be no better harbor on the lake.
The Cheboygan Lumber Company pro-
pore to keep pier light upon the outer
end of their pier, and we have no doubt
that, for the benefit of navigation,
Messrs. Macarthur, Smith & Co. will do
likewise on theirs. This would be a
great benefit to vessels interests, ena-
bling crafts to enter the harbor at all
times without any difficulty.

Los Angeles ON the Chinese
Question.

SAN Francisco, February 28,-The
city council of Los Angeles yesterday
adopted the following and telegraphed
it to the President:
The people of the Pacific have had
thirty years of experience with the
Chinese coolie slavery, and they ought
to know something of its practical
working, and they ask protection
against the fearful scourge. Our
Eastern brethren in general do not
understand this question practically
as they have had no such experience; /;
therefore their clamor is senseless.
President Lincoln killed African
slavery after it had attained gigantic
proportions. President Hayes now
has the power to scotch if not for
ever Atrangle Asiatic slavery on our
shores, in its infancy. In behalf of
the appeals of our city and Common
wealth, we fervently but respectfully
beg that he will not lose the golden
opportunity. (Signed)

PARIS, February 28.-Leon Say,
minister of finance, has explained to
the budget committee that the con-
version of five per cent. rentes would
be unpopular at home and impossible
abroad. He pointed out the contin-
gency that the holders of Eve per cent.
rentes might refuse to exchange their
old bonds for new ones. The govern
ment would then be compelled to
borrow gold from the Bank of France
to redeem the five per cents. Such an
operation would exhaust the bank S
whole stock Of gold and compel the
government to resort to forced cur
rency. The vote of the budget com
mittee resolving to take note of the
declaration of the minister of finance,
indicating that the government does
not contemplate the conversion of the
the five per cent. rentes, is an express
sion of confidence. Germane and
Rouyier proposed that the committee
again examine Minister Say, and if
necessary take other measures, but the
suggestion was overruled as possibly
leading to "A political and financial

THE New York Herald prints an
interesting statement showing the
somewhat remarkable fact that $10,-
100000 worth of foreign rags are
brought into this country every year.
The most startling suggestion con-
nected with this statement, however,
is that Russia and Asia Minor send
us the bulk of this enormous supply
Of wornout undergarments. The fact
is recalled that rags once carried the
plague into Marseilles, and it there
upon becomes at once evident that
this country is in danger from the
same source of contamination. The
Cossack who took the handsome shawl
from the dead Turk and presented it
to his lady love, killed her and twenty
five of her friends in two hours. The
shawl carried the plague. 1t may be
that the dilapidated shirt of Russian
beggar, when the beggar himself has
died of the plague, is packed in bale,
sent down to Odessa, shipped through
the Black Sea and the Mediterranean
to Smyrna Or Trieste, and thence out
Of the Straits and so across the Allan
tic to become an article of commerce
in this country. This is subject
worthy the attention of the congress
sional committee on epidemic diseases.

Who Made Hannibal HamIin
Mad.

Washington Cor. Chicago Times.l
A good story is told about Hannibal
Hamlin, who is one Of the oldest sena-
tors, and who is yet unreconciled with
the administration. The venerable
Hamlin has very marked down east
accent, He was one of the party Of
Republican senator's who, early in the
Hayes administration, called upon the
President to demonstrate with him
upon his Southern policy. During
the conference Mr.. Hamlin occupied
back seat, and sat with his hands
rammed down to the bottom of his
breeches pockets, while his head
leaned forward upon his breast. He
was an intent listener to all that was
said both by the senator's and the
President. He listened with a
special interest when the Presi-
dent began to talk about the
possibility of his policy. The Presi-
dent was in his most genial, hopeful
mood. He spoke in glowing terms of
the beauty of the common brother
hood; that sectionality should be for
gotten, and that the sweet spirit of
Christian influence should come to
purify the contests of politics. Our
Southern brethren have erred, said
he, have been bitterly punished, and
now let us forgive and forget. Let
us, dear senators, take the erring
brother to our bosom and convince
him that he is of our blood, our kith
and kin. The effect of such a noble
policy" said the President, will be
to touch the heart of the South to its
very depth, and out Of those depths
shall gush the well-spring of graft
tude that will insure Republican
victories in at least FIVE States in
the South" It was noticed, as the
President went on, that Hannibal
Hamlin was becoming perfectly hys-
terical with rage. Hot blood was
pumped up under his withered cheeks;
his eyes sparkled and snapped until
he looked ten years younger. When
the President made the statement that
he thought his beautiful policy would
carry at least FIVE States in the South,
Hannibal Hamlin could stand it no
longer. He got up and walked around
in front of the crowd of senators and
strode up to the President, exclaim
ing "You cahn't kerry damned
taown, sir !" He spoke not another
word, but instantly departed, and
since that day the form of Hannibal
Hamlin, once Vice President of the
United States, has never darkened the
door of the White House.

GEORGIA PLANTER KILLED.
Mack Robertson, Of Crawford County,
Assassnated by a Discharged
0verseer.
Special to Couricr-Journal,l

Special to Couricr-Journal,l
MACON, February 25.-The partic-
ulars of a terrible killing have just
reached this city from Crawford
county. 1t appears that some year or
two ago Mr.. Mack Robertson, prom
inent planter of this section, and
member of the firm of j. w. Lathrop
q Co., of Savannah, employed a man
named Humber as overseer on one of
his plantations. AT the close of the
year Mr.. Humber was notified that his
services were not needed any longer.
There was violent disagreement
between the two men over the settle
ment of their accounts, Humber
claiming that Sl5 was still due him. 1t
is said that he threatened openly to kill
Robertson if he did not square up
with him. In the meantime Numbers
wife went over to Robertsons house,
and while there becaIae involved in
very sharp quarrel with Robertson.
She accused him of number of
things, until at length he became ex-
cited and said that she lied in her
statements concerning him. At this
Mrs. Humber said You are just as
good as a dead man! My husband
will kill you" She then left the
house. Shortly afterward Robertson
was riding along the road with his son
about two hundred yards in the
rear. The son says that as his father
was passing a thick wood he saw a
BRIGHT FLASH FROM A BUsHY
CLUMP,
heard report, and soon his father fell
headlong from his horse. At thcsamc
moment he saw Humber issue from
the bush and hurry across the road.
He at once pursued him, and fred at
him once or twice, but Humber es-
capped. He then returned to where
mis- father was lying, and, finding him
dead was overcome with grief and
sank down in the road. There were
five or six witnesses to the shooting,
who hurried to the scene. There is
no doubt as to the identity Of Humber
with the person doing the shooting.
He has escaped capture up to this
time, but a telegram just received in
Macon, by Mr.. Robertson's lawyer,
justifies the suspicion that his where
abouts are known. Tho greatest ex-
citement prevails throughout the
county, and the killing is condemned
in unmeasured terms.

silver Coin Mystery.

The following rather singular piece
of news is told by the Enquirer. of
Cincinnati. 1t relates that quite re-
Gently the express brought to that city
a large quantity OF silver coin, sup
posed to be about $4,000. 1t was CON
signed to the Fourth National Bank
there. There would not have been
nothing strange about this incident if
it had not been that the coin is of an ex-
traordinary kind, and enveloped in a
mysterious history itwas of the half
dollar denomination, and every piece
bore the date of the American mint,
showing that it was coined prior to
1884. The strangest feature Of all re-
mains, however, to be recited. Not
one Of the coins has ever been in cir
culation, and they are as bright and
rough as when they dropped from the
mint, nearly half century ago. The
query is, where has this money been
all these many years? 1t is we'll
known that the $4,000 received in
Cincinnati is only part of the whole
amount of $4,000 Of this coin which
has been shipped from Pittsburg to
various points of the country One
theory is that it is a thief 5 "plant, Z"
Just discovered and dug up by some
lucky finder. Another theory puts the
matter in a speculatory light. 1t is
that shortly after the date of this
moneys coinage, under General jack
sons administration, silver was de-
based. Might it not be, then. that
some one invested largely in the de-
based coin and boarded it away on a
speculation? Whatever the history of
the strange money may be, it is a
curious one. Itbecomos almost of ma
tional importance to know that S75, 900
Of this ancient silver is being poured
into the current Of trade.
