Garden OF Eden Rocks.


Since the days of the "forty acres and
mule" dodge, if a month has passed
away without some ridiculous fraud be-
ing practicel / upon the colored people
here, your correspondent fails to re-
member it. The latest and mo alb
surd was brought to light to- day, when
a colored man, with his eyes dane ng
with delight. came in to show me a
treas Ire that he had just bought in the
shape of "a rock from the Garden Of
Eden"
1t looked like small piece of slate,
was highly perfumed with musk and
packed in small p.steboard box. He
had bought it from white woman,
W told him she was from the { arden
of Eden, and was the only living agent
for the sale of the rocks. She had
thousands of them put up in similar
paper boxes. and sold them through
the country at % cents each She has sold
several hundred in Columbia S. c. The
Times-Star correspondent tried to buy
the olored mans rock but he resolutely
refused ten times its price. A big re-
vival is in p ogress among the tolored
Methodists of this city, and the afore-
said white woman is reaping a rich
harvest in the sale of her Garden of
Eden ro ks" among the ignorant re-
ligious enthusiasts.

The Boys Fault.
Chic ago Times.


A veteran of Wall street says it is re-
markable how many young men there
are in he street. Go int some of the
largest banks and banking houses and
you will find responsible positions filled
by striplings hardly showing the down
of adolescence on their cheeks So it
is at the stock board and her ex.
changes. The old fellow, who says he
has no predjudices against young men,
adds: The great financial business of
New York is done by an army OF
bumptious boys. Is it strange that we
have constant failures, plumbers, de-
linquencies, and dishonors? It is not
strange; but it is strange that nothing
is learned by bitter experience; that
there n.no attempt at reform. If you
observe the bulk of the failures in that
quarter you will find them occasioned
by younger members of the firms, who
have tired to improve On the fathers
methods, and who scout conservatism
and eaut on as oldfogyish."

Solemn Words to Kentuckians.

Again we say, as so often we have
said in these columns, that from the sin
of blood guiltiness no citizen of this
commonwealth is free. We dc not deal
with crime as we ought. We tolerate
murder and pardon vice and honor
criminals if they are brave. Physical
prowess is the only virtue that appeals
to us. We are passionate, unreasonable,
unrestrained, lawless. Society protect
no man either by its recognized rules
of law, or by that public sentiment
which gives strength and force and vi
tality to all written laws. Until we
change all this; unit murder is pun
ished; until we educate men to look to
the law for protection and yindication !;
until the law does what it pretends to
do, what it is in tituted for, We should
cease our boasting, and no longer con-
tent ourselves with traits and achieve
ments which equally distingui h the
barbarous and half civilized communi-
ties,

Bottled Tears.
LIZ -konA Af
lE stern Letter..


In Persia they bottle their tears as of
old. This is done in the following man
ner: As the mourners are sitting
around and weeping, the master of cere-
monies presents each one with a piece
of cotton, with which he wipes off his
tears. This cotton is afterward squeezed
into bottle, and the tears are pre-
served as a powerful and eficacious
remedy for reviving dying man after
every other mears have failed. 1t is
also emplo. ed as charm against evil
intiuenc 8. 1 his custom is probably
alluded to in Psalm vi, s: Put thou
my tears into bottle" The practice
was once universal, as is found by the
tear bottles which are found in almost
every ancient tomb. for the ancients
buried them with their dead as a proof
OF their e. tion.

Earthquakes and Luminous Paint.


The connection between earthquakes
and luminous paint would hardly be
apparent to anyone without explana-
tion. 1t nevertheless exists, and the
recent earthquakes in our own country
have served to remind us of it's exist
ence. As matter of fact, large con-
signments of this paint are sent to those
countries where earth uakes are preva-
lent. The use to which it is put invests
it with the utmost Importance just for
the few critical moments of the shock
In the Philippine islands, where earth
quakes are not uncommon, small me-
tallic plates coated with luminous paint
are SO pIrced about the premises, that
at the first warning the inmates are
quickly guided to the door, and thus to
the street.
In Manila it is laid on in patches
about the bedrooms and staircases, serv-
ing as guides for the door handles and
the stairs. night lights being considered
as especially dangerous, as likely to set
fire to the falling house, and thus to
roast the inmates in their own homes.
1t follows that those who I've in dis
tricts likely to lie visited by earth
quakes will do we'll to adopt this plan,
and to burn no flame lights at night,
especially in the case of gas, the pipes
for which might be broken asunder,
and the gas escape and take fire. The
gas should be turned off at the main
nightly, and luminous labels be so
placed as to indicate the door handles
and other guides to the main point of
egress, which would enable the resi-
dents to find their way cut of their
houses in the dark before the walls per-
chance buried them. 1t will he remem-
bered that at Ischia there was just suf-
ficient time between the first shock Of
the earthquake and the downfall of the
Grand hotel to permit those who acted
promptly to save their lives.
