A DEMOCRATIC PAPER on CONGRESSMAN
HENLEY The Santa Rosa Democrat has said
that the Mexican Empire was not lasting,
that it did not endure, but fell at Queretaro
and faded away. True, but il lasted long
enough to make Mr.. Henley subject, to
ALLEVIATE him from his native country, and
to furnish upon his own demand the very
protection he sought, against the precan-
tons of the United States 1t is
true that he took no oath, because the law
of Mexico requires no oath, but substitutes
therefor protestation of fidelity. In
deed, since the separation of Church and
State in Mexico. this "protestation has
supplanted the oath in all civil procedure
. > Mr.. Henley put his party in
false position by his denial. Had he
frankly disclosed the truth when the
charge was made against him, he would
have been withdrawn from the ticket, for
his election would have been impossible
We al complimented him by believing his
word aid accepting his denial. Now that
his denial is disproved by the record, every
Democrat in the State has a right TO resent
his lack Of truth and candor which has
placed the party in a position from which
it can escape only by demanding his resig-
nation or pursuing him to the vacation Of
his seat 1t is the party that is wrongcd,
not Mr.. Henley. Parties. after
all, must depend upon adherence to the
truth for their only title to public favor and
their only claim to future success al the

Wins.

LONDON, June 14th.-L. e. Meyers, the
American amateur champion runner, rep
resentng the Manhattan Athletic Club,
took part yesterday III the eighteenth an
nual athletic festival promoted by the Wild
ner Athletic Club, near Manchester. The
sports were held in the show-field at Farms
worth, in beautifully fine weather, and in
the presence of over 1000 spectators. Much
interest centered on the meeting, from the
fact that Meyers and Comic, who represent
ed the London Athletic Club, competed in
a quarter scratch, while Arnook, of the
Moosly Harriers, among others, opposed
Meyers Iii halt-mile scratch race. Both
these events the American champion won
easily, the former by three and the latter
by ten yards, with the tim& of 81 seconds
for the quarter and l minute and 574 sec
ondS for the half-mile His greatest victory
was scored soon afterward in the half-miie
handicap, when starting from the scratch,
and conceding the start to twenty-five
opponents, he won easing up by ten yards
with the time of minute and 81 4-5 sec
onds. These performances, following his
already great ARgio-American reputation,
earned Meyers aa ovation from the i'm
meuse mass of spectators, who repeated it
with still more enthusiastic cheers when
he bowed his Acknowledgements His prize
will be silver plate, of the value of f3C, and

and eighty Episcopal churches of the

To THINK of people calling themselves

their fellows to drink beer and wine in

question the honesty of those who do
so; but, in that case, alas! for the

CHRIS ToPHER's SCHOOL.
The Funny Way He Had of Rewardlnl
Industrious Scholars.

The Funny Way He Had of Rewardlng
Industrious Scholars.
A hundred and fifty years ago, among
the German settlers of Pennsylvania,
there was remarkable old school
master, whose name was Christopher
Dock. For three days he taught school
at little place called skippack, aud
then for the next three days he taught
at Stafford.
Whenever one ofhis younger scholars
succeeded in learning his A B G, the
good Christopher Dock required the
father of his pupil to give his son a
penny, and also asked his mother to
cook two eggs for him as a treat in
honor of his diligence. To poor children
in new country these were rewards.
At various other points in his progress
an industrious child in one of Docks
schools received a penny from his
father and two eggs cooked by his
mother. All this time he was not
couBted member of the school, but
only as on probation. The day on which
boy or girl began to read was the
great day. If the pupil had been
dligent in spelling, the master, on the
morning after the first reading day,
would give ticket carefully written or
illuminated with his own hand. This
read: "Industrious-one penny" This
showed that the scholar was now really
received into the school.
There were no clocks or watches; the,
children came to school one after an
other, taking their places near the mas
ter, who sat writing. They spent their
time reading out of the Testament until
all were there. But every one who
succeeded in reading his verse without
mistake stopped reading and came and,
sat at the writing-table to write. The
poor fellow who remained last on the
bench was called a Lazy Scholar.
The funniest of Docks rewards was
that which he gave to those who made
no mistake in their lessons. He marked
large o with chalk on the hand of the
perfect scholar. Fancy what a time
the boys and girls must have had try
ing to so home without rubbing out

Artesian Wells in the Sahara.

A correspondent of husband makes a
communication regarding the present
condition of the Artesian wells in
Sahara. 1t is well kno wn that such
wells have been in operation there from
q very remote period, and in the AL
gerian Sahara additional wells have
been opened with considerable success
by the French. Between Biskra and
Tuggurt the 434 old wells yielded in
1879 $4,000 litres of water per minute,
the 68 French ones $4,000 itres. The
number of palms had increased from
500, 200 to 517. ZOO, that of other. fruit
trees from 10000 to 10000, The popu-
lation from 6,672 to 1897. III Deem
Der, 1881, the yield of water from the
wells had risen to 209, 200 litres per
minute. But this success is confined to
a narrow zone within which water can
be reached within depth of 100
metres, and even here the behring's that
have been made since 1881 indicate a
diminution in the yield of water,
making it appear that the limit of pro-
ductiou of the underground reservoirs
had almost been reached Many of the
French borings, too, are getting stopped
up by sand, and are of too small cal
iber to be cleaned out and restored like
the wider Arabic ones 1t is believed
that it will be absolutely necessary to
set about the sinking of new wells with
wider bOre.-N Y.sPOSt.

SOCIAL CUSTOM.

An Experienced Person Gives His Reason
for Drinking the Drinking Habit
of Most Men is Formed.
AS l took my seat in the sleeper ''Buf-
falo'' found myself by the side of a
man of about thirty-fye years, who
would undoubtedly resent classification
among the. dudes, but whose appearance,
as well as the address on his gripsack,
indicated an aristocratic position in life
His social instincts were irrepressible,
however, and before we had been in the
same seat five minutes he had drawn
me into conversation in which he ex-
pressed his opinion upon various munic-
ipal and commercial topics, shrewdly
suggesting that the prevailing business
depression is quite as much the result of
the abuse of the credit system as of the
overproduction about which so much is
heard.
"WiI you not drink with meP" he
politely inquired after half hours
ride, drawing from his bag a flask which
he said contained very choice article
of whisky. +. 5.s

| must do him the credit to say that
he took no offense, but replaced the
flask in his bag, remarking that he is
accustomed to drink when with the
boys" but when with men who do not
drink he does not drink himself, and
then he was nearly as cordial as he had
been before. I told him that / am no
bigot, but have no taste for Intoxicating

to be willing to even indirectly en-

palatial drinking resorts in New York

The Salvation Army.

General Booth stated at the annual
meeting of the Salvation Army that in
the United States as many as 800 Sal
vationists were in prison for preaching
Christ in the squares and market
places" In 1873, he said, the Army
had but 127 officers; to-day it has 1850.
In 1878 it had one newspaper aud one
magazine; to-day it has % publications
devoted to its cause. Among the
schemes now in hand is mission to
China, with a native leader; also the es-
tablishment of Salvation Navy to
carry on the work Of the Army at sea
and in sea ports. Toward this scheme

BEER DRINKING.

Dangerous Place for Boys-A Few
Words of Warning.
Now, my boy, tell me just one thing
l want to know. Why should boy
drink beerP You say you don't know?
Well, neither do /; though know a
good many reasons why boy should
not drink beer. Sga
| often notice ut eating-houses and
lunch-couuters thing which has bad
look. There are a great many boys
drinking beer with their MONDAY lunch.
They are clerks, errand-boys and boys
who are earning their living in various
ways. They see men drinking beer,
and so they initiate the men. Whether
they like the taste of the beer or not
don't know. But they think it looks
manly; and you know boys viii put
themselves to great deal of trouble
and inconvenience to do what men do.
You see this in the trouble boys take in
learning how to smoke and chew to-
bacco.
want to whisper in the ear of every
boy who takes e glass of beer at his
lunch that he is in danger | do not
say that one glass of beer will make
him dangerously drunk or leave him ly-
ing insensible in the gutter or on the
pavement. But boy who has an after
moons work to do is very likely to be
untitled for it by one glass of beer.
This beverage makes him stupid and
thick and sleepy. 1t may not put him
actually to sleep, nor affect his tongue
so that his speech sounds like that of
an old topper; but it beclouds his brain
just enough to make him different
boy from what he ought to be, either
for his own advantage or for that of his
| employer.
Then think what the beer leads to.
There are a great many stronger drinks
sold at the lunch counter, and you
know boys are fond of trying expert
ments. A fifteen-year old boy sees
some eighteen-year old who is near
him trying a glass of sherry or a pony
of brandy. He thinks that what the
bigger boy is doing is manly, and
therefore he will do it, too. The novel
feeling of the stronger drink is a new
revelation to him. His stomach is
warmed, and presently his head has a
curious feeling of lightness, and he
wonders if these drinks always make a
fellow feel that way. He tries, and
tries, and tries again, and finds just
how they make fellow feel. 1t is easy
to see that the lad is in danger of walk
| ing in crooked ways.
1t is a pity that a boy should have to
get his lunch at place where strong
drinks are sold. There are so many of
these places in our big cities, and so
few of the diaries" and such places
| where liquors are not to be had. The
boy who eats among drinkers is in
danger. He is likely to fall into their
ways. Better go to place where
strong drinks are not sold if you pos
sibly can. Or if you are living at home,
where you have good mother or sis
ter, bring a neat lunch in your pocket
and keep out of the eating and drink
ing shops altogether. Req. alfred Tdy-

OUT AND IN.

Three little flies in the room, on a pane
Three little flies just outside, In the rain.
Said the three little flies as they hummed on
the pane
To the three little flies who were out in the
rain:
" DON you wish that you were on this side
of the pane,
Instead ofout there in the cold and the rain?
And then we must tell you there's dinner
a-cooking,
Though really and truly we haven't been
looking"
Said the three little flies outside in tho rain
To the three little flies inside on the pane:
:. We think it S much nicer out here in the rain
Than shut up where you are. inside on the
pane;
And then there's more fun than the boys have
at ball
In lodging the rain-drops as fast as they fall 1"
