One beautiful feature about the
American amusement world, is the
utter absence of any catch-penny, or
humbug arrangements. In this great,
busy, struggling world, one might
look for the basest kind Of deception.
But there is nothing of this kind.
The skepticism of the Yankee is over
come by the solid fact. One of the
most striking illustrations of this
point was observed recently at mu-
scum exhibition. Said one young
man, addressing the living skelett n
and pointing to the Zulu Chief, Can
he speak English?" mo, no!' was
the reply, given in strict confidence,
''he can understand few words, but
cannot speak anything but his native
tongue" The object of this CONVEX
sation sat upon high stool, notion
less, with an old bridle-ring in his
nose, a shield in one hand, club in
the other, and his black face sme red
with white paint Many who saw him
were unreasonable, and claimed that
it was only "a Niger" belonging to
the show, but we knew better. We
knew he was wild, untamed, blood
thirsty savage, possibly the one who
threw the first ass-gai at The young
Napoleon. He looked like it. Then
when we saw him after the show,
dressed in cowhide boots, butternut
breeches and blue drilling shirt, assist
ing the laborers and talking very good
English, We k,se,c he WAS :. Zulu Chief.

The richest thing yet gotten off by
the erratic Halstead, was perpetrated
last week. Unable to cope with his
old enemy, John Mclean, in the news
paper field, he sent Col. Terrell-who
killed man some years ago-to Nc
Lean, as Halstead's second" in a
bombastic effort to create the impress
sion that he wanted to fight duel.
Mclean knew nothing of Halstead' 5
complaint, and the matter dropped.
The whole thing was farce, and
Halstead is the laughing-stock of the
country. We suggest that he secure
a banjo and take to the street-eorners,
as better mode Of advertising.

The penalty was fixed at death, and

these brutal dogs justly merit. An
Infamous scoundrel who can find
nothing grander in this country than
planning robbery, arson, murder, has
no right to live, and the sooner such
creatures are chucked under the
ground, the better for the country.
These fellows were plotters against
the public peace, and could scarcely
tell why-perhaps because of natur-
ally brutal and criminal disposition.
When permitted to go on unmolested
for short time, such fellows become
defiant in their miserable practices,
and seem to get into the idea that the
threat of midnight plot or dyna-
mite bomb is sufficient to strike terror
into a great Nation. The breaking
of few guilty necks will doubtless
have a good effect as a restraining in
