The Democracy will do or refrain from
doing nothing to recover them. The
Republican party would be glad to
escape responsibility for them, for they
stimulated it to canvass which was as
much of a disgrace to it as was the
candidate by and for whom that can
vass was conducted. They attempted
murder and committed suicide.
The Democratic party is entrusted
with the administration OF the Govern
ment. Its officials are fulfilling the
trust well. Both by honor and the fact
of success the party is committed to
carrying out the pledges. on the faith
of the people in which they gained
power The effect of the Administra-
ton on the minds of voters will lead
them to determine their personal rela-
tons to the Democracy. 1t will deter
mine, perhaps insensibly to themselves.
the very relations of these detached
thinkers to that party. They will dc
well to let no such personal standard or
religious distinction or race theory as
they gingerly discuss now have place
in their minds. From such erroneous
methods they were delivered, or should
have been, when they left Republican,
ism. And the inquiry of whether the
latter party is not bound to suffer the
disinte grafton which has followed the
defeat of every other emergency party
in the United States by the Democracy
is a great deal more pertinent and ext
gent than any intellectual speculation
to which these detached thinkers can
address themselves at this time. -

READING FOR THE YOUNG.
TO YOUNG AMERICA.

To all who stand beneath our flag.
Is freedom, both to silk and rag,
Nor can pampered Baron brag
That he is more than others.
Young man, consider where you are,
What It's to be beneath our star
To be the equal of Gar,
And call all men your brothers.
Not so whore Europe's crowned pates
Look round upon its four estates
And frown upon the man who waits
And works for something better.
With us, each man is free to do
What'er, in right he wishes to
And is as free to push it through"
As Zeus from every fetter.
So. youth. if you do not succeed
Where from such hindrance you are freed,
Then something must be wrong. indeed,
About your own dear self.
To honest fame do you aspire?
Or would you competence acquire?
You may obtain what you desire,
Fen though you wish for pelf.
But if you'd rise to high position,
You must fulfill a sure condition;
There is a stage of hard transition
That is to be passed through.
To think, to toll and to discern
Between the worthless chaff and corn,
And every idle thought to spurn--
All this you are to do.
So, then, don't say your lot is hard,
And that all hope you must discard
OF ever being sage or bard
Or splendid millionaire;
But show that you deserve to be
An honOred man, and thcn you'll see
That soon the people will agree
10 raise and put you there.

beheld his father and mother and sister
KATY riding towards him in the OLD

his feet. He expected his mother and
sister to scream with delight and well
come him to their arms.

A Brave Race Who Are the Principal Fol.

A Brave Race Who Are the Principal Fol.
lowers of Osman Digna.
Osman Digna's principal followers
are Hadendowas by race. They may
be called by the generic name of Sou
DAMS. But to call them Arabs, as they
are always called, is a mistake. The
Hadendowas have very little Arab
blood in them. They are mostly an
Indigenous African race, just like their
neghbors the Bishareen (the Beja of
the Arabian writer's, the Bugata of
classical history, with whom they
are included by photographers, under
the convenient. if not very lucid, des-
ignation of ''Hamitic." Their COM
plexion is dark brown--almost black
brown-and their hair is more suggest
i've of the negro than of the Arab; and,
though all their sheiks and most OF
their rank and file speak kind OF
mongrel Arabic, the Hadendowas have
a language of their own, just as the
Bishareen have. There have been
certain intermingl:ng of Arab blood
among the Hadendowas, as among
other Hamitic populations of the
Soudan (Belad-es-Soudan. country
of the blacks), but it has been very
small; and their religion constitutes
the main connection between the Ha
dendowas and the true Arabian race.
But even their religion is the grossest.
the most superstitjous corruption of
the simple and severe faith of the
prophet. Osman's Baggaras, the Be-
mir Amer clans between the Suakim
Hills and Kasala, the Shukriyeh peo-
pie between the Atbara River and the
Blue Nile, have far greater claim to
the proud name of Arab than the
Hadendowas and other tribes of the
Eastern Soudan. Indeed, in some
parts of the Central and Western Sou
dan there are large numbers of tribes
men who have maintained great deal
of the purity of their race even to the
present day. 1t is often said that the
Soudanese owe their splendid fighting
qualities to the strain OF Arab blood
in them. But the example of the
Hadendowas is fatal to the theory.
Not only are the Hadendowas brave
race-they are far and away the BRAY
est savages whom British troops have
ever ountered.-Londoe NeaUs.

Terrific Explosion Of Natural Gas.
INV Telegraph 70 the Dispatch.l


PITTSBURGH, December 4.-There
is a six-inch main Of natural gas run
ming along Grant street. Shortly after
four O'Clock this afternoon Katie
Griffin, domestic in the employ Of
Mrs. Meehan, No. 545 Grant street,
started for the cellar, taking with her
a lighted lamp. At the cellar-dOor she
requested a Mrs. Phipps to hold the
lamp. No sooner had she opened the
door than the gas ignited. A terrific
explosion ensued. followed in quick
succession by explosions in the adjoin-
ing cellars of j. j. Flannery and Louis
Favilla. The noise was heard squares
away and created the utmost excite
ment. Sheets of flames burst from the
windows, doors, and sides Of the
wrecked houses. From within was heard
the screams Of women and children.
Several men forced their way through
the fire into Mrs. Meehan's house.
Upon the floor, every vestige of clothes
burned from her body. was Katie Crit
fin, bleeding from a deep cash in her
side. Near her was Mrs. Phipps.
wrapped in flames. Katie Griffin was
burned beyond hopes Of recovery.
Mrs. Phipps's injuries are not con-
sidered fatal. On one Of the up
per floors Of Mrs. Meehan's house
there were eight women and chill
dren. and in Flannery's Mrs. Elan
rerv and two babies. In Fayilla's there
was Miss Favilla and her nephew, j.
f. Case. The fire spread so rapidly
that they were rescued with difficulty.
All were finally taken out uninjuIed
except Miss FayiIla and young Case, who
were quite severely hurt from falling de-
IRIS. The flames destroyed Flannery's
three-story brick building. Other
houses were so wrecked by the concus-
sions that it may be necessary to tear
them down. The news of the aGlir
spread quickly, and in few minutes
the streets were blocked with people. A
short distance from the scene Of the ac-
cident faith-cure meeting was in pro-
gress. The explosions shook the build
ny and created a panic, but all the oc-
cupants reached the street without in

Public Execution.


SAUGUACHE, COL, December A.
Marshall Clements was hanged here
yesterday for the murder Of his brother
Thomas and the latter's wife, Susan,
last August. The doomed man seemed
to be in excellent spirits. On his way
to the gallows he recognized several
acquaintance, bowling pleasantly and
addressing some by name. AS he ass
cended the scaffold the sheriff asked
him if he had anything to say. He
replied his death was deserved, and he
hoped to be forgiven. He then bade his
friends good-by and said he was ready.
His neck was not broken, though the
fall was seven feet. The knot had been
tied too loosely and became disar-
ranged, causing death from strangula-
ton. The execution was witnessed
by about 1000 persons. Some came
100 miles to attend it.
