Speaking of real good-lOoking men with
a wde-awake cast of countenance and a
laugh that can be cracked in st. Paul and
heard in Omaha. there is not one who so
steadily balances himself on the pinnacle
of ambition as does James L. Hazard, of
the Minnesota & Northwestern road. The
gods sometimes deal gently with the poor
weakings of earth. and with Mr.. Hazard
the fateS have been most lenient. and he
carries around with him splendid phys
ique and look of perfect health. A bru-
nette. he parts his hair on the side of his
head and lays it smoothly along the margin
of broad, square forehead that bespeaks
rapid reckoner and an ability
to figure out complicated rates. One would
think to see him coming down Third street
that he was the treasurer Of some highly
successful dramatic company, with the
ability of playing leading parts when the
walking gent happened to be out of whack.
He always dresses with a tall hat and a
dignifed collar with protruding points that

Tall. erect and athletic IN appearance he

up line between st. Paul and Chicago
he fills the mind of the listener with a
panorama of words that sort of stirS up
his blood and makes him feel as though he
was in close proximity to word manu-

dependent on wealthy relatives of whom,

After Gil Pierce.s Shoes.


WASHINGTON. Nov. 27.-There is a con-
siderable delegation of Dakota Democrats
in the city, looking after the appointment
of successor to Gov. Pierce. NJ. II. Day,
of the national committee. and l.. G. John
son, chairman of the territorial executive
committee, are of the number. and seem to
be harmonious in the expectation that an
appointment will soon be made. In the
opinion of good judges the list of candi-
dates has narrowed down to the two names,
those of Mr.. Day and Judge Church. Mr..
Days name is understood to be very favor
ably considered by Mr.. Cleveland, and in
view Of his activity in behalf of the Demo-
Gratis of Dakota. his candidacy for congress.
and also as the residuary legatee of Gov.
Ziebach's extensive support for the govern
Orshp year ago. The divisions which
then rent the party in Dakota now appear
to be wiped out. and whatever the result is
there will be acquieScence and congratuIa
ton on all sides for the sake of the party.
Judge Church. who did not particularly en-
JOY life on the bench in Dakota, is willing
to assume the trying duties of the governor
ship and is well supported in his aspirations
by his New York friends.

People Who Live I'm Trees.

DIR. Louis Wolf. who made the sensa-
tional discovery while ago that the
Sankuru river afforded more direct and
more easily navigated route to central
Africa than the Congo, made another dis
covery in the course of the same journey
which was quite as remarkable IL not so
important. On the banks of the Lonami
river. far toward the center of the con-
tnent, he says he found whole villages
that were built in the trees. The ma
tives, partly to protect themselves from
the river when in flood, and partly to
make il more difficult for their enemies to
surprise them, build their huts on the
limbs of the trees where the thick foliage
almost completely hides the structures
from view. The inmates possess almost
the agility of monkeys. and they climb
up To or descend from their little houses
with astonishing ease. Ii is believed they
are the only Africans yet known who
live in trees. In Borneo some of the
natives are said to live in trees. and Mr..
Chalmers in his book on New Guinea,
tells Of number of tree houses that he
visited on that island. These huts, which
are built near the top of very high
trees, are used for lookout purposes, or
as place of refuge for women and chill.
dren in case of attack. They are perfect
little huts with sloping roofs and plat
forms in front, TO which extends the long
ladder, by means of which the natives
reach the huts. Mr.. Gill describes one of
these houses which was used as resi-
dence He says il was well built. bur

VALUE OF THE CONGO.
A Doubt That the Country 10 Worth De-
veloping-A Travellers Views.

A Doubt That the Country is Worth De-
veloping-A Travellers Views.
The Italian traveller Bove has lately
joined in the unfavorable verdict upon
the value and the future of the Congo
state. In q letter dated from Lucunga,
which the Roman paper, Rassegna, re-
prints, he says: "The part OF the country
through which / have Travelled has not
altered the unfavorable opinion which 1
had formed of the Congo; on the con-
trary, everything I have seen confirms
me in the belief of the Insignificant value
of the district When l remember the
great stir which has been made with re-
gard to the Congo basin, the conferences
and transactions, and the numerous ves-
sells which have been sent out, the hon.
age and the congratulations which the
king of Relgium has received; when l
think of the mean jealousies, the i'll will,
and the examinations, l am inclined to
believe that mankind has advanced very
little in the real love Of truth, and that
even great statesmen often stumble in
the dark.
1.-The journey from Matadi to Lucunga
was heavy piece of work; chains OF
mountains, steep hills, deep precipices,
endless hollows, rivers full Of rapids,
and everywhere sandy deserts, and
underwood six or seven yards high,
through which the way lay for hours
and hours, as through d tunnel; the
whole body was whipped by the hard
grass The excitement became quite
feverish to get out of this torture and
breathe once more free air. Here and
there | came upon tiny wood, and
every two or three hours upon village
of four or five huts; then grassy deserts
again and hard rocks. All travellers unite
in praising the upper Congo state, its
boundless forests, its wide water veins,
and the fertility Of its soil. Well, before
long we shall see how far this is true.
Manari appears to think as little of the
upper state as of the lower, and | share
his view that a great part of the upper
Congo district is covered with immense
swamps The slow current Of the river,
its width, the numerous slow tributaries,
and the large lakes from which these trib-
utaries spring, must indeed lead one to the
belief that the upper Congo district is
an immense plain.
"And supposing even that the country
ON the upper Congo were paradise Of
fertility, what good would it be to our
emigrants to go to country where 1t
is almost impossible for Europeans to
work, and where they would have to pay
half their earnings to doctors and chem
ists Nor do l see for the present any
market for our commerce. | have re-
peatedly said that 1t would be far more
useful to direct our attention to the coast
of west Africa, 10 Sierre Leone, Liberia,
and the Niger district, where traffic is on
the increase, where there is a numerous
and commercial population. and where
shortly the produce of the western Sou.
dan will pass along the great highway Of
the Nigep-which is, indeed, the river
which is of.greatest Importance to AZ

Faults Of Our COINAGE.

Ours is but small and stupid imita.
ton of monarchical coinage, without the
interest Of protraiture. And IL Ii not only
ludicrous, but it is unbecoming the i'm
perial republic. The coinage of republi-
can Greece or Rome is 100, per-
haps 1,OOO, per cent. more interest
ing, inventive, artistic and instructive
than ours, as can readily be shown by
the copies in dozens Of shop windows,
though perhaps, there are none i'm our
mints. Were the ancient republics I'm
any way our superiors, that we continue
the accumulating proofs Of our inelegant
faculties
II our artistic and aesthetic citizens and
societies have any weight in such affairs,
We appeal 10 them 10 raise clarnor and
aGitate the land for the production OF
something worthier Of us than the monot-
onous mediocrity of our meaningless
coinage. DO not permit posterity to be-
lieye us the dullards these die cutters
suggest.-Cor. Courier-Journcl.
