memorial addressed to President Hayes
condemning, in strong terms, Chinese i'm
migration to the State Among other
things, the memorial declares that the
Chinese seriously interfere with all free
labor, as they are able to exist upon a

are continual source Of expense to the
State; that they do not in any manner
add to the wealth of the State by the
acquisition Of real property, the payment
OF taxes, or development of any of its re-
sources; that every dollar they earn that

II was sad scene, and one Sibyl never
forgot. Hour after hour she sat holding the
cold, wasted hand, and listening to the
struggle for breath, and wiping the clammy
brow. Once the dying man turned to her
and said:
II shall tell Mary-of all-you have been
to me. Heaven bless you--for it r
She was thankful when it was over, but
she would not go away till after the funeral.
She wanted TO pay him the last token of re-
spect and in her own perfect happiness
could not bear to leave the bereaved brother
alone with his dead. Geoffrey would op-
pose no wish of hers, and shared her COM
passion for him so they laid the poor, worn
body to rest in the churchyard of st. Clem-
ents, and then turned away forever fren
| the spot
OF Frank Lawrell they never saw or heard
ANYTHING again. Sibyl wrote him q letteF
through the bank, saying that she should
pay him no more, and that, if he wished to
know Why he had better come and see her ;
and apparently he understood her, for he
did not come, TINS proving the truth Of
Richard Lenny's story as plainly as he could

The lovely bride appeared that season in
London, creating the sensation Sir Henry
Temple had prophesied but, better still, by
her unfailing amiability, kept sunshine for
ever in her happy husbands house. The
morning of her life had been cloudy, but
the rest of it was almost unvaried sunshine,
Down in the lovely valley of Kent where her
home stood, amid the love OF husband and
children, the years rolled on in more perfect
happiness than often falls to the lot of hu-
man beings; but it never occurred to her
that it was owing in part to her own gentle,
nnselfsh nature, that, always considering
others before herself, she found pleasure il
what would have been sacrifices to many
women, and one of the sweetest moments o!
her life WAS that when old Mr.. Chetwynd,

saying tremulously:

THE GERMAN NAVY.

Germany, insulated as it is, has hith-
erto grounded its warlike strength on its
armies. Until quite recently, owing to
its position as a slight maratime power,
but little attention has been paid to
acquiring any dominion on the high seas.
The tenth anniversary of the establish
ment of German navy dates from the
18th day of June, 1867. Before that
time the idea of German navy would
have been regarded in Europe as a joke.
Within the period the naval power of
the new Empire has come to be a recog-
nized fact among the maratime nations
of Europe. Germany has now over sew
enty ships of war, modern in their con-
struction and equipped with the most
effective forces.
There are several ships of 5000 tons
burden, and the total tonnage is over
100000 tons The power employed is
10000 horse power, and the vessels are
armed with 400 guns of the most ap-
proved modern pattern. In any future
war Germany will be heard from on the
high seas. She is now prepared to speak
for herself as against England, France,
Spain, Russia, or the United States. As
against the United States she will find
nothing formidable unless she attacks
the fashionable bathrooms of Annapolis
Washington, or some other naval sta
ton, and boldly hazards her naval repu'
tation in a fashionable conflict of dress
coats and official puppyism.
And Germany has accomplished all
this at a very slight comparative cost
The estimated naval expenditure for
1888 is only about $4,000, 900 for ordi,
nary and $13,000000 for extraordinary
expenditure-the first item representing
the current expenses of her navy, and
the last the cost of proposed additions tc
be made.
That country has shown wonderful
capacity for taking care of itself on land
for the last generation and quietly get
ting into position to make itself respect
ed on the common highways of the
nations, and all this has been done at a
very slight cost as compared with what
the United States has paid, evau for the

past ten years, to keep up its naval sys-
tenn. Yet one single. frst-class naval
vessel of Germany would blow every
United States naval tub of the first,
second, third, fourth and fifth classes out
of the water or sink them in thirty min
utes. There is broad distinction be-
tween gilt buttons and gold lace on the
one hand and steel plates and Krupp
guns on the other when national contro-
versies wax warm.

CINCINNATI has quarantined in a mild
way. This is well enough, but let us see
the city conspicuously clean. We admit
that it is in good condition now. With
the exception of Boston there is perhaps
not in the country a cleaner city than
Cincinnati, but there is room for i'm
provement. Let the garbage be removed
with perfect promptness, and every street
and alley cleaned and washed as often as
it is needed, Money spent in this way
will prove the best investment that can
be made.

The coopers of st. Louis, who are now
on strike, have grievances which it
would be pleasure to know could be re-
lieved by some peaceful means. Their
average wages are less than $6 week,
and their trade is not only one which re-
quires skill but severe manual labor as
well. Hod carriers in the same city are
paid 50 50 day, and ordinary day la
borers are better paid than the coopers
who have spent years in learning their
trade.

Cheering News to Some Advertisers.
(Whitchall TimesO

Those people who do not believe in ad-
vertsing in the newspapers will soon have
an opportunity to advertise in one of their
favorite mediums. An agent will soon be
here who will hire all the space on the
soles of gentlemen's boots. This agent
will then canvass the village and obtain
advertisements, which he agrees to mark
with colored chalk-fresh every morning
ON the soIes Of said boots. We heartily
endorse the project, and think the plan
splendid. When man sits down after
dinner and elevates his feet on hotel or
boarding house piazza, the advertiser will
have the sole benefit of this splendid
method as passers by stop and read their
announcements.
