Trouble with salyationists at Battle Creek

BATTLE CREEK, Mich, July 16.-R. J. Mp'sr.-
a resident of this city, and George Measley,
member of the Salvation Army, have created
great excitement in tho city for the last two
weeks by holding religious meetings in the
streets On one occasion Measley was arrested
for disorderly conduct but was acquitted. Last
most disorderly crowd ever seen in the city
The police attempted to interfere, but were de-
tered by the mob. Measley finally took refuge
in private residence, into which the crowd
followed throwing stones and other missiles
The police are powerless, and the lives of the
two men are IN danger.

THE heirs of Samuel Love, of Ithaca N. Y,
had about settled UP the estate to their own sat
isfaction and no hint was dropped that he was
any other than mentally sound when he died. A
will has been found, by the terms of which al!
the property except $1,000 is devised to Rachel
Hunter, of Elmira. The validity of the will
will be contested on the ground of the testator's
alleged incompetency. In cases where will is
found, all the heirs expectant should be- made to
file their exceptions to the testators competency
before it is opened.

Mr.. THOMAS FORTUNE, editor of the New
York Freeman, an organ Of the colored peo-
pie thinks Liberia is not desirable country
for American negroes, and suggests Mexico as
suitable place for colonies. Mr.. Fortune
undoubtedly means we'll by his brethren; but
while there is room in the United States for
all the people of African descent who are now
here, it seems unreasonable and unkind for
him to recommend them to 60 elsewhere.
There is room and opportunity to live, and
grow, and rise. for all of them who will seek
these advantages; those who will not
do so here would not prosper in
colonies, it IS hardly necessary to
say. The would be phianthropists who orig
mated the Liberian colony scheme should, it
would seem, after seeing the failure of that
enterprise, recognize the fact that the idea
was wrong. The American negroes are Amer
leans, not Africans, after all these generations,
and their place is in the country of their birth.
They are accustomed to the ways and institu-
tlons of this country; and abroad, even in the
land from which their ancestors were torn,
they are strangers and aliens. The friction
arising from their adjustment to the changed
conditions of the past twenty years has al
ready partly subsidized, and, considering all the
circumstances, is now much less than might
have been expected. The problem of the col
ored race is, in fact, so rapidly solving itself
that it is matter of surprise to hear the col
onization scheme again discussed, especially
by one Of their own number.
