Cinnamon SHINING In,

Communication arc being constantly
received at tho Treasury Department
from the collectors of the various ports
throughout the United States asking
for instructions relative to the landing
of Chinese sailors in this country. A
case was reported to Acting Secretary
French yesterday from Port Townsend,
Washington Territory, Of a Chinaman
who shipped on board of an American
vessel over two years ago, whose term
of enlistment has expired. The captain
of the ship claims that he mad shipped
this man in an American port, and un-
der the maritime law he ID obliged to
land him in the country from which he
shipped. Judge French says there are
many such questions arising out of the
recent Chinese bill just as complex as
the above. The way the law stands
now he says if the captain Of the vessel
referred to lands the Chinaman he sub
jects himself to fine, and if he refuses
to do so or to land him according To mis-
shipping agreement, he is also liable
to fine. Judge French says he will
ask Congress LeXt ses ion to legislate
further on this subject to avoid Difficult
ties in enforcement of the law.

Heroine and Coward.

The Athens (Ga.) Banner saws:
There we're many individual deeds of
daring at aud Hazel Creek during the
fearful accident to the Pioneer excur-
sion train, but none can eclipse the
heroic conduct OF Miss Annie Martin, a
young lady of Augusta, nov on q visit
to her sister here, Mrs. W. H. Jones.
MISS Martin was an occupant of the
first coach, and was sitting besi 'e Cap.
taia W. d. OFarrell When the car
had settled on top of the engine and the
not steam was pouring into the coach,
threatening to suffocate all the inmates,
Mr.. O'Farrell threw cloth over this
lady's face to protect her from the
steam, and passed her out through the
window unhurt. Bat Miss Martin was
not content with being saved hnr-
self.
She instantly rushed to the scene of
the wreck and with her own hands
saved the lives of three persons, QUE of
them gentleman, by dragging them
through the car windows. How this
delicate young lady accomplished q
tasA before which some of the stUutest
men present quailed is more than we
can say. SIZE seemed endowed with
supernatural strength. Miss Martin,
during the excitement, saw lady be
ing crashed beneath the coach, where
she had fallen, and threatened with
death, Turning to young man, who
was standing idly by at some distance,
she asked him 10 rescue The party.
II am not going to risk my life to save
anyone" was the Cowardly response.
Miss Marrin then, with her own hands,
extricated the victim, who proved to be
Inarriel lady, and dragged her to
place of safety.
But it was at the expense of serious
injury to herself as she received bruises
from which this young lady was for
some time deliriOuS. n Jbly did she
continue the work until the last person
was rescued from the wreck, when
Miss Annie set to work and carried
bucket after bucket of water until the
last spark was exJinguished in the en-
gine. 1t must be remembered that this
hercism on the part of Miss Martin was
performed in the face of imminent
danger to herself, for after the excite
ment the yourg lady was discovered to
have her arm dislOcated i'll two places,
her side badly sGalded, besides serious
bruises on her body. Had she repaired
to place of safety as soon as released
from the coach, instead of returning to
the scene of danger, Miss Martin would
have escaped without a scratch.

A Reply 20 Fair Play.
2 or the RRPuBLIoAN.

fOr the REPUBLICAN,
DEAR SIR agree with you that it
Is wrong To run steam Hars and steam
boats, and sell tobacco, whisky, ice
cream, SO on the Sabbath day. But
in regards TO going TO church on the
Sabbath, being business, you are mis-
taken. The Bible says Remember the
Sabbath day to keep 1t holy" It's a
day SOL apart to worship God. The
Bible says Assemble yourselves to.
gether in the Sanctuaries on the Sab.
bath day, that you may draw near unto
God and hear the Gospel preached !"
and If the Bible is true you are mista-
ken. In regards to the ministry being
business the Bible says beautiful are
the feet Of they that preach the Gospel
and bring glad tidings of good things.
Is it not the same Christ that told the
fishermen to leave their boats and seins
and follow him; He had a higher CALL
ing fJr them, to preach the gospel. 1t
was that which called Elisha from the
plow In the field to wear the mantle of
Elijha. say is it not the same power
to-day that Is calling men from the
fields and shops, and places of business
to preach The gospel? Certainly 1t is.
But some people think 1t very hard to
lend helping hand to support the gos-
pei. OF course the minister must have
something to eat, and clothing to wear,
and 80 must their wives and children,
and l think if they depend on "Fair
Play" the provision merchants and
chothing merchants would think them
bad pay.
In regard to the organist in the
churches, the Lord says come before
His presence with an instrument and
singing. l think that the European
Sabbath is more ofa days frolic than
anything else, but thank God that in
the United States the Christian banner
is still above the dust. And it is q
country that is blessed of God. think
the new mayor is just the man to keep
the banner iu he air. OF course il you
tramp on worm it will squirm if pos
sible. Respectfully yours,

Political Assessment t..

A letr' from Washington to the Bal
timorc 5 III says: Gentlemen who arr
IN position to know say that the "vol
nntarJ contributions" asked for by the
uniUn republican congressional com
mittee will amount to more, when the
total is reached, than has ever beer
raised before by the same committee tC
carry Ola congressional campaign.
They say that the reason why it has
resulted 30 suceesstullyis that, there:wat
an openness about iL never before prac
ticed; that everything has been above
board, they will not offend any one BY
no sending in their assessment, they
certainly will not if they "step up to
the captains ofioe and settle" as re-
Quesred.
1t goes without saying also, that
these who have subscribed and paid up
feel much more comfortable than those
who fear, like George William Curtis,
that they may violate some law by
furnishing their quota to the campaign
fund.
One Of the States that the committee
expect surely TO redeem is Nevada,

elected Senator Fair and Representa-

lutionary placards printed in order to
ruin the innocent victims of his tyr
rany. In case like this one is tempted
more to enjoy the discontinue and
disgrace of the mayor who was
stripped of all his dignities as a func-
tionary, as well as of his rights as a
citizen, than to dwell much on the
tardy justice melted out TO those made
tation will be all the stronger when it
is remember that punt shment very
rarely follows in the wake of these un-
founded denunciations. This two
residents of a country district near
Kayan found out to their cost. Living
quiet and harmless lives, spending
their time mainly in agriculture, they
seemed the last persons in the world
likely to conspire against the Czar's
Government. Yet they were de-
nounced. Their house was ransacked,
and both were conveyed prisoners q
distance of $500 versts in order to
be presentat an investigation, which
resulted in the completest proof being
afforded of their innocence. For a
blunder of this kind one would think
somebody should be made responsible.
Ugly cases of this kind, however, are
quietly dropped" by the Russian po-
lice 1t occasionally happens, too,
that they look on with approval at
compromise. This they did at Kiry-
loft, in the government of Novgorod,
under singular circumstances. Here
the denouncer was priest named
Rubinoff, and the Suspect" a we'll
known teacher in one of the popular
| schools. The jealous cleric formulated
no fewer than six denunciations, adj
dressing one to the district educational
council, another to the marshal of no.
| bles, a third to the school inspector.
a fourth to the school director, fifth
to the provincial council of education,
and sixth to the governor of the pro-
vince. The case looked black for the
suspect under this terrible array of in
dictments. and. had it taken q merely
ordinary course, the prayer of the &C.
clesiastic would have been granted,
and the schoolmaster prohibited from
further exercising pedagogic functions.
But the zeal and intelligence of
school inspector gave the case differ
ent aspect and in the end the six de-
nunciations were shown to possess
no further foundation in fact than the
feeling and hatred which brought
them into being. Yet no punishment
followed. The affair took a decidedly
comic turn. At the wish of the school,
the injured pedagogue shook hands
with the priest, who is said to have
displayed ready willingness to be
''recOnciled.U

EboDizing.

How to make woods, such as cherry,
mahogany, etc., look like ebony, is
often desirable, and a correspondent of
The Hub gives the following direc-
tons:
To initiate black ebony, first wet the
wood with solution of logwood and
copperas, boiled together, and laid on
hot. For this purpose two ounces of
logwood chips, with one and half
ounces OF copperas, to quart of water,
will be required. When the work has
become dry, wet the surface again
with mixture of vinegar and steel
filings. This mixture may be made
by dissolving two ounces of steel
filings in one half pint of vinegar.
When the work has become dry again,
sand paper down until quite smooth.
Then oil and fill in with powdered
drop-black mixed in the filler. Work
to be ebonlzed should be smooth ana
free from holes, etc. The work may
receive a light coat of quick. drying
varnish, and then be rubbed with
finely pulverized pumice stone and
Inseed oil until very smooth.
