During the campaign the democratic par
Especially southern democrats-pro-
fessed that they were better friends of the
oolored man than any other party in the
country. During the recent discussion of
representative Reagan's interstate COM
merce bill the question of the equality of white
men and black men on railroad trains came
up for discussion, several amendments being
offered to the bill, looking to the prohibition
of any distinction by railroad companies on
account of race or color, and every one of
the southern democrats voted mo They
moved to adjourn and resorted TO fillibuster-
ing tactics TO secure the defeat of such
amendments, and at last secured the adop-
ton of proviso, that the furnishing of sep
arate cars for colored passengers should not
constitute distinction within the meaning
of the bill. Many of the northern democrats
voted with the republicans, in favor of the
amendments, but enough of them were pre-
vailed on to vote with their southern breth-
rem to secure the adoption of the above pro-
viso. Our Michigan representatives how
ever, all voted against it. The pretense of
southern democrats that they are friendly to
the colored race is the merest sham and n.y.
pocrisy. Were they free to manage this gov
eminent according to their own ideas, they
would soon reduce our colored fellow clti-
zens in the South to condition little if any
better than they occupied before emancipa-
ton. The great central political idea of the
democratic party in the solid South may be
accurately expressed in three words-''d-n
niger"

Within the last few days several fatal Ares
have occurred in various parts Of the coun-
try The first of these was the burning
of the candy factory of Gray, Toynton a
Fox at Detroit, where three girls were burn
ed to death; then came the burning of the
Lapser county poor house where one of the
inmates lost her life, and the holocaust at
Brooklyn, N. Y. where a large number of
children were consumed by the conhagra-
ton of an orphan asylum in that city. These
occurrences coming so close together have
aroused public sentiment upon the question
of the manner in which modern buildings
are erected. 1t is disgrace to our civiliza-
ton that SO many fire traps are permitted
to exist, and especially that public buildings
should be allowed to be built in such way
that, in event of fire, there is almost GER
tainty that it will be accompanied by loss of
life. The matter demands attentioe at the
hands of our legislators, and it is to be
hoped that laws will be enacted for the cor
rection of the evil Our Legislature could do
no better work at its approaching session
than to enact statute regulating and pre-
scribing the manner in which public build
ings shall be erected so as to guard against
this unnecessary loss of life, and compelling
owners of buildings in which men and wo-
men are employed to erect and maintain
suitable fire escapes.

The small wits of the Democratic press
have been repeating what they imagined was
a good joke, that Gen. Grants refusal to ac-
cept pension was the first time he ever de-
clined anything Intelligent people, however,
remember that he declined the sword of Gen.
Lee, who was the greatest of Democratic
generals; that he declined the terms of sur
render offered by Buckner, another great
Democratic name, and that, ever since the
rebellion of the southern Democrats broke
out, he has declined to join the Democratic
party on any terms.-Det. Post.

Democratic journals are borrowing great
deal of unnecessary trouble in regard to the
denomination of Mr. Blaine in 1888, and are
already making suggestions as to what course
their party should pursue in such an event.
Let them possess their souls in peace, for
although Mr.. Blaine ia not dead by any
means, he will never again be the republi-
can presidential candidate.

A short time since Paul Reinsch Dissolved
several kinds of minute plants-including
two alg@ which which had before been un-
known-growing upon coins after having
been long enough in circulation TO receive
thin incrustations of organic matter. A
Hungarian botanist, Jules Schaarschmidt,
has more recently found the microscopic
growths upon paper money, even the clean
est specimens not being free from them. He
has detected seven species, including-al-

scribed by Reinsch.

Maryland Sunday School Union.-This
old and much honored institution has sent its
annual appeals to the various Sunday schools of
the State for contributions. 1t is hoped there
will be general and liberal response. 1t has
done great work in the State in reaching desi-
tute sections, and rescuing thousands of children
and youth from depraving influences The fol-
lowing is compendium of the Union Mission
1. To organize Sunday schools in destitute
parts of the state, and in fact, wherever needed.
2. To reorganiZe and put on secure footing
dead and languishing Sunday schools.
3. To introduce method and encourage spiritual
life in Sunday school work.
4. To furnish needy schools with necessary
literature.
5. To hold conventions and institutes for the
benefit of teachers, and enlighten the public mind
in regard to the Importance of Sunday school
work.
6. To visit the homes of the people, especially
Goddess and neglected homes, and impress them
with sense of parental responsibility, and to ga
Their their children in the fold of the Sunday
school.
Z. To hold prayer and preaching services in
inrnistrarfdn or rne ghstb s.~a---;.I ILL., --ie-
s. To look after the children of vicious and
depraved households, that they may be brought
under such moral and religious influences as will
make them blessing instead of a curse to the
world.
y. 10 encourage fraternity among tne various
branches of the Christian Church, which minge
together in lovely of spirit in our union
meetings.
The Union, therefore, in consideration of its
great mission will ask from the Sunday schools
of Maryland contribution according to their
ability, and will respectfully request that the
same be sent to W. A. Baker, State Superinten-
dent, corner Charles and Saratoga streets, Balti-
more, Nd, as near before or after the first of Sep
tember as may be convenient. We hope there
will be general response, and that no school will
hesitate to respond because its contribution may
be only a mite.

Pansies the Year Round.-With many
people the pansy is fayorite flower. Yet many
fail, even after much labor and expense, to have
it constantly and in abundance. OF this beauti-
full flower an intelligent gentleman says: "For
two years my pansy beds have been from early
Spring to late Fall, mass of large flowers and
in mid-winter even, when the snow has gone off,
they have been found to be still in bloom. Ny
method is easy and inexpensive. About the lat
ter part of August, 1 spade small bed, say three
feet square, deep, mixing in plenty of fine man
ure and covering with half inch of sand en-
close II with fropa -nhn.t - :-l--s L:esL
covered with Stats one inch wide and two inches
apart. 1 sow an abundance of the seed of the
choicest varieties, covering lightly with the sand
Nothing more is needed until the following Spring
except to pull any weeds that start and to put on
light covering of straw before winter sets in. In
early Spring, prepare a large bed, about three
feet wide and long enough to contain the plants
transplanted six inches apart each way, and pro =
vide frame and Covering of Stats as before. The
plants soon grow up through between the Stats
and the surface is covered with flowers which on
account of the deep, rich soil and the partial
shade retain their size even in the heat Of mid
summer. 1 now have four such frames, two
planted last Spring and two year ago, the lat
ter doing as well as the former. The old beds
have had no care this year except to remove the
Sigh covering of straw in the Spring and to pull
a weed occasionally. The pansy plants are so
thick that only now and then weed appears"

Farm Law-Rights in the Road.-If
farm deed is bounded by, on, or upon road, 1t
USUALLY extends to the middle of the roadway
There are few exceptional cases but ordinarily
the farmer owns the soil of half the road, and
may use the grass, trees, stones, gravel, sand, or
ANYTHING of value to him, either on the land, or
beneath the surface, subject only to the superior
rights of the public to travel over the road, and
that of the highway surveyor, or other similar
officer to use such materials far the repair of the
road and these materials he may cart away, and
use elsewhere on the road, but he has no right to
use them for his own private purposes. No other
man has right to feed his cattle, or cut the grass
or trees much less deposit his wood, old carts,
wagons, or other things thereon and after notice
to the owner, the farmer may remove them to some
suitable place. and if they lost or injured 1t is
not his fault. The owner of a drove of cattle
which stops to feed in front of your land, or of
drove of pigs which root up the soil, is response
BILE to you at law as much as if they did the same
things inside the fence. No persons children
have legal right to pick up the apples under
your trees, although the same stand wholly out
side of the fence. No private person has right
to cut or lop off the limbs of your trees in order
to move his old barn other buildings along the
highway; and even if the owner of the building
has license from the proper authorities to move
the same through the Streets this does not exempt
him from liability to private sufferers. And no
traveller can hitch his horse to your trees in the
sidewalk without being liable if he gnaws the
bark or otherwise Injuries them; and you may
unite the horse and remove him to some safe place
If your well stands partly on your land, and
partly outside the fence, no neighbor can use it.
except by your permission. Nay, more: no man
has right to stand in front of your land, and
white or deface your fence, throw stones at your
dog, or insult you with abusive language, without
being liable to you for trespassing on your land

A Heavy Robbery.-Mr. E. Bishop, pro-
prietor of the store and restaurant at Loeb Raven
met with very heavy loss on Wednesday. He
was away from home at the time and his wife
and boy had charge of the store. Mrs. Bishop
was not very we'll and went to lie down, charg
ing the boy to look after matters during her alb
sence. When she returned the boy was missing,
as was also his father, burly Irisman who was
employed about the place as laborer. Mrs.
Bishop then discovered that the contents of the
money drawer were missing as was also satchel
which had been hid behind door. In this
satchel were over $500 in cash, gold watch and
several pieces of ewelry, the total value of which
was about $1,000. When Mr.. Bishop reached
home and learned the facts, he at once went to
the city and employed detectives to work up the
case. 1t is thought the father and son went
across the country to the Phla., Wilmington &
Baltic railroad and boarded a train for Philadel-
phia.

Painting Single Roofs.-It is claimed tha

Painting Single Roofs.-It is claimed that
more single roofs are painted now than ever be-
fore in this country. 1t is mostly seen in cities
and suburban towns, although in the country it is
by no means rare. Considerable inquiry has led
to the conclusion that many have their roofs
painted to add to their appearance, which in
many cases it certainly does, while others labor
under the impression that the paint acts as a
preservative to the shingles. The letter are prob
ably right, provided the paint is renewed as often
as it needs to be. If the roof is allowed to re-
main with the paint partly worn off the shingles
will retain more moisture, and consequently de-
cay sooner then they would were they not paint
ed at all. On the score of durability, however,
little can be gained in cost by painting. good
single roof implanted will last great many
years, and the expense of painting it a few times
would replace it. One painter, who had painted
the roof of his own house, when questioned, used
good logic from his standpoint. He thought that
painting roof would add somewhat to its length
of life. "You see," he said, "that have painted
mine. I do for myself what desire to do fol
others. If I did not, the influence would be bad.
