The Ravages OF Poker.

New York Times: Poker has been
committing dreadful ravages among
good folks in this town within the last
few months. Some of the preachers
have become much exercised. One
uptown clergyman sent invitations to
a number of his fellow-ministers last
week TO meet at his home to discuss
''some OF the features of social life
that are m%euacing Christian progress"
The meeting was held on Friday even
ing, and four hours we're spent upon
the enc subject of card playing. One
pastor of a fashionable church said that
he had discovered an epidemic Of po-
ker in his church, the ladies and boys
and girls indulging almost universally.
He had gone the other day to give
consolation to a member of his church
"a Sunday-school teacher - whose
death had been expected. He found
her propped up on the pillows of her
bed, exclaiming to companions as he
opened the door: ''Can you beat a
straight hushp'

A German Fleet In American
Waters.

Washington Special March %: A
few weeks ago the Critic of this city
prin teda sensational interview with a
member of one of the foreign legations,
giving reasons which it was alleged,
induced the Presidents message to
Congress showing tho strained rela-
tons between this country and China,
and implicitly asking the legislative
branch OF the government to take ome
action in the matter. This evenings
paper contained another interview up
on the subject. 1t represents the
President and cabinet as being very
much concerned for fear China may
levy an indemnity upon our seaboard
cities in retaliation for the destruction
of life and property to Chinese resi-
dents in this country, unless some Wig
orous action shall be speedily taken.
The person interviewed says that moi
only is England encouraging the
Chinese government TO the course, but
Germany as we'll. He continues:
within the last two years Germany
has affected a great friendship for
China. She has built for her four
powerful iron.clads averaging from
4,SOU to 6 400 tons each, armed with
the finest Krupp guns and ready for
instant service. The predominaLce Of
German influence in China is shown by
the fact that the contract for con-
structing a system of railroads from
the interior of China to the ~seacoast
has been granted TO the great Berlin
banker, Biuchroder, one of Bismarck's
s.aunchest friends. II is believed that
some sort of a secret treaty has been
entered into between Germany and
China.
Not the least interesting incident
OF the present time is that a German
squadron. consisting of four men-of-
war, is now cruising in South and Gen.
trail American waters, within three
days steam of our coast, the first that
ever came here of so many sail. 1t is
under the command Of ono of the best
sailors OF the German navy, Commo-
dore Stedzel. The squadron consists
of the Stein, carrying sixteen guns; the
Moltke, sixteen guns; the Sofia, ten
guns, and the Ariadne, nine guns. The
officers and crew of the feet amoun
to 1920 men. What they are doing
just at this time in American waters is
a matter of some interest. In view A.
Bismarck's action in regard to AmeSk
can products and American natural
lied citizens. it means nothing friend
ly to the United States, you may be
certain"

A Microscopic View Of the Dis
gushing Impurities
Which a Diet Of Bogus Butter
Contains.
The Results OF q Careful and Pro-
longed Investigation
BY Prof. Nachtrieb, Of the State
University.
BOGUS BUTTER.

The manufacturers of butterine claim
that it is certainly cleaner, and at least
as wholesome as dairy butter. The
old adage is that ''seeing is believing"
and the dairy commissioners of Mime
sofa want the people who eat butter
inc, the dealers who sell it contrary to
law, and the lawyers who defend them
in so doing, to see with their WI eyes,
aided by the microscope, the tooth
some morsel which the law would pre-
vent them from enjoying. The samples
analyzed were bought of storekeepers
in Minneapolis, and to the eye and
taste were a superior article of butter
inc. The names Of the dealers are
withheld until they shall be announced
in the courts as defendants for violat-
ing the law. In the meantime they are
neither better nor worse than other
men who sell or defend the salo Of the
abomination. People of Minnesota's
fair cities, this is the delectable sub.
stance that graces your dining tables
in the garb of wholesome butter! How
do you like itp The analyses and
drawings were made py n of your
own respected citizens, in the name of
the state and of the university, whose
learning is employed to defend
the people. What lesson does it
teach? We answer First, that the
business Of making and selling this
imitation butter is nefarious. 1t is
counterfeiting in it's most dangerous
form. 1t springs from cupidity, and
is carried on by fraud. 1t ~displaces
one of the most delicious and nourish-
ing articles of food with a vile COM
pound, which, il it had not stolen the
honored name of butter, would be
nsmeless, since no word has been
framed to express its real substance or
character. That five hundred men aud
ten cities of this great land may grow
rich by fraud, three million of farmers
must be defrauded Of an honorable
business, and twenty millions Of people
of a wholesome food. That this object
lesson may assist in ~arousing the peo-
pie to the nature of this gigantic
swindle, and to its purpose to override
law il it cannot control it, this article
il presented to the people of Minnesota
by the state dairy commission.

PROF. N~ACHTRIEB's REPORT.

The following is an extract from the
illustrated report of Prof. Nachtrieb.
of the state university, to the dairy
commission. of the samples Of butter
inc given him for microscopical ex-
animation:
The examination of these samples
was by no means exhaustive, and they
would probably yield much more than
the accompanying figures indicate.
The best and cleanest looking sample
had a butter odor and taste, and would
readily pass for butter. 1t had a very
small variety of living organisms, but
a great many spores which. under
favorable conditions, l have no doubt
would have terminated 1t also con-
tanned masses of dead mould, bits Of
c~ellulous wood. various colored par
ticles, shreds of hair, b%rist!es, etc. The
other two samples teemed with life
and yielded microscopic preparations
Of the moulds and bacteria that would
have gladdened the heart of the student
Of biology. The microscope revealed
the fact that the greatest variety Of
,;fo existed :: the Inner portion ct
these samples, and that the outer
portions contained the greatest guam
fity of active bacteria. The ami
mails found in the butterine belong to
the type of p~rotozoa. Doubtful por-
tons of worms were also noticed.
Many of the PROTOCOL, under favorable
conditions pass into an encysted stage
or develop spores within protected cap
sules, and in these conditions lie dor
mant till the environment is again ia
vorable. and it can hardly be doubted
that some of the many spores foundin
these butterines were merely in a dor
mant state. The great number and
variety of organisms found in the sam
pies, indicate the use OF foul water anu
a criminal filthy process in making 1t.

Mr.. CARLISLE ON THE TARIFF
The Speaker Of the House Believes
the Laws Need Revision and
SimpnhcattOD.

l. lxO 0bO0n0A ~ -
the Laws Need Revision and
Simplifcation.
Speaker John G. Carlisle returned
to Washington Sunday night. During
the few days he and Mrs. Carlisle have
been at the Gilsey house they have
been overrun with visitors. Mr.. Car
Isle, speaking yesterday with q Star
reporter on the subject of tariff, said:
..In my opinion the sentiment in ia.
vor of a careful and just revision OF
the tariff laws is steadily growing In
the country at large and IN congress.
Both political parties are pledged to
this policy and their last national plat
forms, and neither of them a afford
to appeal to the people again without
making an honest effort to accomplish
something in this direction. Not only
the rates of duty, but the purely ad-
ministrative parts of the system also
need revision and simplification in To
interests of freer commercial into
course and onest and uniform collec-
ton OF the revenue. Democrats who
have heretofore opposed legislation
upon this subject have based their OPP
position largely upon the ground hat
the reform could not be effected until
we had secured control of the execu-
tive branch of the government. We
now have the administration, and have
a right to expect the support Of all our
political friends in securing the neces-
sary reforms.
Since the meeting of Congress in
December last. the silver question has
so engrossed the attention Of members
that comparatively little has been said
about the tariff; but the committee on
ways and ean has been engaged in
the preparation of a bill, and in q short
time it will be reported and taken up
for consideration. After the vote is
taken on the question Of free coinage
of silver, the currency question will
lose its Importance, unless some CON-
promise measure is proposed, a
tariff revision viii be the dominant suC9
ject in Congress. 1t is impossible now
to predict Whist the final result will
be, but it is certain that the measure
will be pressed To a vote, and that the
country will have an opportunity to
see who favors a reduction and who
sustains the existing system Of excess
sive taxation New York Star.

JOHNSTON STATION, GA, July 90
A shocking tragedy was perpetrated in
the l,l32d district of this county Friday.
Pat Martin, a widower, living with his
three little boys, the Oldest being about Il
years OF age, was killed by them while
sleeping on a cot in the front piazza of his
house. They went to the house of an aunt
living near and confessed the horrible
deed, saying that their father had whipped
them and threatened to choke and cut
their throats when he had taken
a nap. The boys secured an ak, and
while be slept aimed three or four blows
at his head, killing him before he could
rise. The boys are small for tueir age,
having always been considered sickly.
Martin was addicted to drinking, but
as he worked hard at a neighbours house
up to dinner time, and the killing took
place Immediately after, it is not probable
that he was in liquor.

ntsh parallel for this case.

Injured by Rocks and Bullets.
JACKSON, MISS, July 25.-Last night
as a special train Of thirteen coaches,
heavily loaded with passengers, most of
whom were negroes residing along the
line of the Vicksburg and Meridian rail-
road, was leaving Vicksburg to return to
Meridian. brickbats and stones were hurl-
ed into it through the windows by un-
known miscreants standing outside in the
darkness. One young negro was struck
ON the head and rendered unconscious.
Just before the train reached Bovina pis-
tolls were fired into the cars, and one
colored man was shot through the
shoulder. When two miles east OF
Clifton the train was again fired into, this
time by man standing upon the ems
bankment of a cut through which the
train was passing, and a young white man
WAS shot through the leg. The train
passed here late at night. All the injured
were taken to their homes. No clue has
been obtained locating these dastardly
acts or indicating the motives OF the
would-be assassins.

RIVERS AND HARBORs.
The Probable Outcome of the Con
ferences of the Two Houses.

WASHINGTON, July 25.-The members
of the House Committee on Rivers and
Harbors have been holding frequent con-
ferences with view to finding some way
in which to save the river and harbor bill
from threatened death. The time until the
probable day OF adjournment is so
short that they have felt obliged
to adopt some measure which would be
at once simple and easily applied. They
have about determined 10 ask the House
to strike out the appropriations for the
Hennepin canal, for the Sturgeon Bay
canal, for the Portage Lake canal, and
for the national harbor of refuge
at Sandy Bay, Mass. This would reduce
the aggregate of the appropriations about
three quarters of million. They pro-
pose to move to concur in all the other
Senate amendments. They think that the
Senate to save the latter will yield tho
four items referred to and they think the
President is much more likely to
sign the bill if these four items are left
out. The three canal appropriations are
very questionable. All the members of
the committee here except Mr.. Stone, Of
Massachusetts, consider the Sandy Bay
harbor of refuge unnecessary,
