The Dark Continent.

Although We are not, nor are We like
ly to have for years. any accurate sta
tistics of the population of the interior
of Africa, there is very little doubt that
we have greatly moderated it. Much
important information has lately been
gathered on the subject, especially con.
corning the distribution and density of
that far-off land. In the great lake
district, for instance, there are terri
tories as thickly settled as many Euro
peau States, relatively small areas pos
sessing millions of people. The negro
regions are by far the most populOus,
while the desert portions are the re-
verse. A French geographical society
gives the estimated figures of various
subdivisions of that continent as fol-
lows: In the Soudan the population
is SO, 900, 600, or about fifty three per.
sons per square mile. The town of
Bida, on the Niger, for example, con-
tains fully 10000 inhabitants. East
Africa is rated at 30, 900. 900. and equa.
torial Africa at some 40, 600 900 souls.
A late authority on ethnoloQy sets down
the negroes as numerically 13O, O0O, 900;
the Hamites, 10000, 900; the Bantas, 10 :
900 900; the Foolah. 5000, 600; the
Nubians, 1,500. 600; the Hottentots. so. :
000-making a total of 172. $50 600.
These tigures-only approximate, of
course-are considered too low by both
German and British geographers, the
former estimating the population rs
high as $1,000, 900. Much hope has
been repeatedly expressed of the future
of Africa, which is rich in mineral
products, and capable of maintaining
q prosperous commerce with other
parts of the globe, Along the coasts
and caravan roads the chief trade has
been, and continues to be, in slaves.
1t is thought that recent effort will yet
do much toward abating the odious
traffic, as the natives are capable of
something better. Many of the tribes
are above the condition OF sa7ages.
They have fixed habitations, though
merely mud huts, defended by stock
AIDES, and have some laws or customs
favorable to commerce. Among several
tribes the native merchant is greatly
esteemed, and his property is safe even
during war. The land is cultivated,
the Inhabitants wear dyed cotton; gold
and iron are ingeniously manufactured,
and certain kind of intelligence seems
to be slowly spreading. What Africa
course with the outer world, and that
must arrive. Who knows but that, in
in the coming cycles, the highest civil.
ization may be found where the first
civilization arose.-N. Y. Home Journal.

Art in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia is becoming the fore
most city in the land in point OF facili-
ties for education. Its School OF De.
sign for Women. long known as very
useful institution, is enlarging its
rooms to the capacity Of accom- N odat-
ing five hundred pupils, and is fur
nishing them with requisites of the
best kind for study and practice. For
u long time there was better provision
made for the art of education OF wom-
en- than OF men Now, however, all
branches of art are being taught to
both sexes, in we'll equipped schools.
Young men have, in the Pennsylvania
Museum and School of Industrial Art,
an institution very similar to the
School OF Design for Women, and
capable of carrying on a similar good
work. The schools of the Academy of
the Fine Arts offer advantages to both
sexes for the study of the "fine" as
distinguished from the industrial arts.
Schools attached to the Spring Garden
and Franklin Institutes give prelimi-
nary training, and are eminentiy prac-
tical, though they do not attempt to
make artists of their pupils. All of
these institutions are doing good work,
and there is sufficient difference be.
tween their methods and objects to
give field to each without any rivalry.

and the Judge. Maule thereupon init
mated to the governor that, in so doing,
he had outraged one of the best-known
, conventional rules Of society. Don't

other gentleman to seven years trans

ing in not the best possible manner,

cannot do that, put them arithmetical-
ly-that is bad, but it is better than

A man was tried for stealing q watch.
On the conclusion of the evidence for
the prosecution. the prisoner was asked
if he had any witness. The reply was,
"None but lis Maker, who knew his
innocence" The Judge, after watt ing
short time, addressed the jury as fol-
lows: Gentlemen, the prisoner is
charged with stealing watch; he calls
witness who does not appear. On
the other hand--two witnesses saw him

Yet one more instance of an unex
pected issue of his irony.
A very stupid jury were called upon
to convict man on the plainest evil
dence. A previous conviction was
proved against him by the production
OF the usual certificate and by the evil
dence of the policeman who had him
in charge. The Judge summed up at
great length. He told the jury that the
certificate was not conclusive; that the
question was entirely for them; that
policemen sometimes told lies, and
much else of the same kind, concluding
as follows: "And,' gentlemen, never
forget that you are British jury, and
if you have any reasonable doubt on
your minds, God forbid that the pris-
oner should not have the benefit of it,"
The jury retired, and were twenty min
utes or more before they found out that
the Judge had been laughing at them,
and made up their minds that the iden-
tity was proved.
Another admirable specimen of his

Gentlemen, the learned counsel is
perfectly right in his law, there is
some evidence upon that point; but he's
a lawyer, and you're not, and you don't
know what he means by some evidence,
so I'll tell you. Suppose there was an
action on q bill of exchange, and six
people swore that they saw the defend
ant accept it. and six others swore they
heard him say he should have to pay it,
and six others knew him intimately
and swore to his handwriting; and sup

with the defendant forty years before,
and had not seen him since, and lie
said he rather thought the acceptance
was not his writing, why there'd be
some evidence that it was not, aud that's
what Mr.. - means in this case.
Besides being good judge aud all
manner of other good things, this re-
markxble man was good son and
good relative. He never married, and

bench in the year 1e5S.-AH the Year

The Woman Of the Future.

Il Long Branch correspondent of the
Albany Journal writes There are
two facts which strike one with i'm
mense force this season on first arriv-
ing at the most popular of our water
ing places, and these are first, the
number of tall, well.grown young
women that the present age has devel-
oped; and second, the size of hats they
wear. Unusually they are fair as we'll
as large. and they look like revival of
the race of Scandinavian goddesses-
as il all at once our earth were being
peopled again by mighty Brunhelds
and lovely Sidurrhas instead of the
slim. sallow type we have been accus-
toned to associate with the born Amer
lean.
The immense hats, which have wide,
indented or turned up brims, enhance
this blooming style of beauty, and
render il all the more conspicuous. A
little more Of dignity, a little more of
repose, and they could quite realize
the poets ideal of daughters of the
gods-divinely tall and most divinely
fair. But their too abrupt movements
and the loud talking-the silly talking
and tittering," in winch nearly all
the girls indulge, destroy the illusion.
These young women come from good
well-to.do families; they are the rep
resentatives of the present, and part tic
ularly of the incoming generation of
the women of America, and AS such are
to be congratulated on being great
improvement. physically, on those that
have gone before them. Their fine de-
velopment speaks we'll for what i'm
proved methods-more air, better and
more nutritious food, and more intelli-
gent aims-are doing for them. No
more slate pencils, no more theories in
regard to food, no more moonlight
reveries and morbid longings; the
healthy modern girl is the most practi-
cal, the most unromantic of mortals,
and her dinner is as important fact to
her as it is to any alderman on Lord
Mayors day. She is not ashamed to
eat, and she shows the results of good
living and exercise, both of mind and
body. From such young women as
these in the present day it is easy to
tell what the women of the future will
be; perfect realizations of the ideals of
the poets and the romancers--no mere
bundle of nerves, but gorgeous crea-
lures, capable Of ruling the kingdom
thst is preparing for them.

Chief Ouray's death brings into
prominence the fact that he was the
victim of intense and jealous hatred
among a number of Ute chiefs, and the
suspicion that he was poisoned GER
tainly lacks no fouAdation as 10 the ex-
istsnce of a motive for the crime. The
superiority of Ouray to the other
chiefs in point of intellect, eloquence
and influence was the main cause OF
the dislike toward him. although his
enemies sought to cover the real cause
of their dislike by allegations that he
was the friend of the whites and false
to his own nation. His loss will soon
convince the Utes that great misfor-
tune has befallen them, and should it
be discovered that he died of poison,
vengeance will at length be fierce in
pursuit of his destroyers. He was I'M
questionably one of the noblest In
dams who ever walked this continent,
and his death not only obstructs the
ratification of the treaty with the
Utes, but also removes the main prop
of the cause Of civilization among his
people.-N. Y. Mail.

Women in the Working World,

confess that am not at all sure
that If certain rosewood doors were
flung wide open to certain of our work
ing women that they would at all be
inclined to enter. Still it would be
hard to make any autocrat believe that,
wouldn't it? To illustrates: I know q
certain recognized leader of fashion
and society "A cultivated, elegant
woman-who can entertain whole
roomful Of company, whose word and
whose opinions are laws in the circle
in which she moves. This lady will
not only owe her milliner for six
months at time, will not only bargain
and bargain with her seamstress, and
finally tell the overworked sewing
woman to come again for one, two and
three months at time, when she asks
for money, will let them both see the
hard, selfish, contemplate side of her
nature, and which she keeps covered up
from her own friends, but will further
more pass her debtors on her way to
church, with naughty stare, as if she
saw them not. To be sure, to the finer
quality of woman, such snobbish treat
ment acts rather as tonic, but to the
timid, shrinking working girl, who has
started out in the world full of pride
ut her importance as bread winner
and helper, glad in her shy way of
her rank in natures aristocracy, such
sneer comes like wet blanket. This
last spring certain very nice club of
young gentlemen proposed giving a
reception to their young lady friends.
A certain young gentleman whom l
knew sent in the name of charming
and lovely young lady for an invitation
to the reception. Her name was re.
fused, and the mortified applicant de.
manded the reason. The committee
were very sorry, and ss far as they
were concerned. there was no reason at
all; but tho other young ladies, who
were all high-toIed, would be sure to
object, because She worked in stoi,!
AID l do believe if those young lady
guests had been told the estimation
that had been placed upon their idea
OF the nobility of work by the gentle
men of the - club, that to the last
woman of them the lesson would have
been ono life.lasting in it's value, and
they each would have recognized their
duties to each other as women. as per
haps they had never done before.

4 Maiden's Isuse.

One Of Titusville's charming young
girls, who is very fond of the society
of gentlemen-as all charming young
girls very properly should be-is in
the habit OF occasionally remaining
out with her friends of an evening u
little over the time usually allotted to
her by her doting parents.
Her parents, we might observe, who
have passed the hey -dey OF life. ob
jected occasionally to their daughters
evening rambles. They were too pro
longed, and her late coming-in dis
turbed their slumbers.
Their admonitions not proving OF
any avail, few evenings ago, they in-
formed the young lady that /" if she
remained out another night wher 1t
was time for honest folks to be in their
beds, she would find herself locked
out. So there "
But the Young miss only smiled, with
a faraway look in her eyes. that indi-
Gated it was matter which she took
very little interest in. That evening
the daughter kept an appointment with
her "fel!er," as usual, and as usual,
Time trod on flowers till the midnight
hour was reached. Then vending her
way home the young lady tried the
front door for Abundance, but it was
fastened, as her obdurate parents said
it would be. She next investigated
the door in the rear and the windows,
but they were all as securely closed as
il they had been sealed to the build
ing. She was in quandary. How to
get into the house and ascend TO her
room was problem, apparently as un-
solvsble as the riddle of the Delphi.
But, happening to remember that there
was back wood shed that sloped near
ly to the ground, she went to the rear
of the house, and with the assistance of
box got onto tho roof and made her
way to the wind ow, into which she
climbed and got to her room without
discovery.
But this did not end it. The roof of
the porch was covered with tin, which
had become warped, AMI while treading
over it the noise made was similar to
the sheet-iron thunder one hears in
theaters, and its rumbling awoke the
the old people, but before they could
get to the window their daughter was
safely ensconced in bed.
They next called to her and asked
her if she heard the noise, when She
as if awakening from deep sleep-re-
piled that she did, but that she guessed
sit was the cat"
The parents were not satisfied with
such an explanation, and they retired
with their suspicious half confirmed
that "things were not what they seem"
The next morning the very first
to arise was the charming young girl.
Hunting up the family cat she took
him out doors and carefully besmeared
his feet with ashes. Then, tossing Tom
on the woodshed roof, she retired to
bed to await developments.
Everything terminated exactly as the
astute young lady had planned. The
parents examined the roof again Cat
her suggestion; the cat tracks were
found traversing the tin in all direc-
tons, and the daughter was exonerated.
1t is hardly fair to make an exposure
now of such an admirably contrived
scheme, and the parents will doubtless
be surprised on reading the dsnous-
n,ent, but, certainly, their daughters
ingenuity must commend her to their
forgiveness; hence, We run the rick
