An Unexpected Change.

Professor Hagen, who arrived from
st. Louis few days ago, left for Null,
doom, to-day, to take charge of the
property OF the Black Spar Mining
Company as general manager-thus
relieving George Smy;h, who has
filled that position from the organiza.
ton of the company. This move, OH
the part Of the Board of Directors
was somewhat unexpected to Mr.,
Smyth, as he has a written contrac,
with the company, employing him as
manager at salary Of 5000 pc,
month, and this contract still has six
months to run. But he nevertheless
turned the mine over under protest
in order to preserve his legal rights
in the matter.
Professor Hagen is the expert upon
whose report the property was sold b,
Mr.. Smyth.

A Frightened Community.
Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise.l

Virginia New Enterprise.l
A man not long since died q
natural death down at Lundy. The
circumstance "cast gloom over the
whole community" In case of a
man dying from the effects Of a knife
or bullet wound his death was to be
attributed to his own lack of alert
ness and dexterity in drawing and
using his weapon, but when I.undy
ite came to die natural death all the
people were frightened. No amount
of skill and ''soonness" with knife or
pistol would be of avail against death
when it comes in the natural way. 1t
was evident that as one man had been
taken Others might be called, and a
feeling OF depression and gloom
settled down upon the people, visible
in the awestricken faces of all when
they fully realized the fact that 1t was
possible for Lundy man to die a
natural death.

An English firm has sent out man
to examine and report upon the
Nevada deserts as a place for the
raising of ostriches OIL an immense

OF these kingly birds far exceeds he
supply, and it is thought that the
Nevada deserts are, in some respects,
like their natural homes, and they
could there be raised without feeding
or care; all necessary would be

Diamond Mining in South Africa

The diamondiferous soil is quarried out
bslow by Kairs and deposited in great
iron buckets which run OH standing wire
ropes. and are hauled up by steam to the
receiving boxes OH the brink Of the mine.
Everywhere is activity and hustle. aud
loud hum comes up out of the vast holo
from 5000 to 1000 human beings engaged
at work below. The men themselves look
like 80 many flies as they dig away at the
blue soil. and the thousands Of wire ropes
extending from every claim to the de-
posting boxes round the edge have the
appearance of q huge spiders web. while
the buckets perpctually descending empty
and ascending full might well represent
the giant spiders.
Every thirteen or fourteen Kafirs at
work In the mine have white overseer,
to prevent as much as possible that
wholesale robbery which goes on among
them One would think they would find
it rather hard to steal, and still more
difficult to conceal diamond on their
naked persons under the eye of the over
seer; but. despite all precautions. they do
stcal a vast number of stones. picking
the n up and carrying them away In their
months or between their toes. The
largest diamonds are usually unearthed
in Ihe mines before the stuff is washed,
ans Oh overseer must keep his eyes well
open. for he cannot be sure Of the honesty
OF any one of his bows"

Elder BrazletOn Stoned.

NORTH VERNON. July Glider John
Brazleton, an eminent divine of the
Christian church of this state, and a
leader in the prohibition party in In
diana, made speech last Friday
night at Butlerville, this county, in
advocacy of the principles of his
party. In the course of his speech
he said that the Republican party
had outlived it's usefulness and could
not survive upon the dead Issues of
the war, high protection and free
whisky. The Republicans present
became intensely enraged. and sought
to infict upon him various indigni-
ties and insults. After the conclu-
sion of his speech, and while leaving
the house, he was attacked by Re-
publicans who had attended his
meeting and was severely injured.
He was struck on the head by a
swiftly thrown stone. Butlervllle is
strongly Republican and is the most
intolerant place in the state. Elder
Brazleton was formerly leading
Republican in this part of Indiana,
and in 1882 represented this county
in the legislature.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent }


WASHINGTON, July IS, 1888
Mr.. Barnum, chairman of the ma
tional Democratic committee, has
been in the city several days in con-
sultation with Mr.. Cleveland, Senator
German and others. He positively
refused TO be interviewed, but l learn
from another source that he is very
confident of Democratic success.
Commissioner Coleman certainly
has reason TO feel proud OF bis ad-
ministration OF the agricultural de-
partment when he receives such COM
pliments as the one paid him by Sem
ator Plumb at the meeting OF the
senate committee on agriculture.
The question under consideration
was the proposed transfer OF the
weather bureau to the agricultural
department. General Greedy, chief
signal officer, was present to oppose
the transfer. He accused Mr. Cole
man Of using influence to bring about
the transfer; Senators Paddock and
Plumb, both Republicans, warmly de-
Tended Mr.. Coleman from this charge,
and Mr.. Plumb added: "Tbe feeling
among farmers Of the West is in Ia
yor of having the weather bureau
connected with the agricultural de-
pa,tment, which has grown steadily
despite opposition and ridicule' and
which is now rendering better service,
and is of more value to the people
th1n ever before"
The house has passed the agricul-
tnral appropriation bill, with the SEN
ate amendments.
Representative Samuel j. Randall
had dangerous attack OF hemorrhage
this week, but is now somewhat bet
ter. His physicians say that absolute
rest is necessary for him, 80 that it
is not likly that he will again appear
on the floor of the house at the pres
emit session.
The Mills tariff bill is making good
progress. Its passage is assured.
The Independent colored political
association of Virginia met in this
city this week, and heartily approved
the call for the conference OF indie
pendent colored men at Indionapoli:
on the 25th inst. They elected fifteen
delegates to the conference, ano
passed a resolution endorsing the ad
ministration of President Cleveland
The national convention of the Ma
tional American party will be held in
this city August IA, to adopt a plat
form and nominate candidates fol
president and vice president.
The senate has passed a bill tt
amend the interstate commerce act
which makes number of more O.
less important changes in the law.
The house committee on military
affairs has made favorable report
on the bill, introduced by Mr.. Laird
appropriating s25o,ooO for aiding
state houses for the support of dis
abled soldiers and sailors of The
United States. Among the provision
of the bill, is one providing for tn
payment to state houses of 800 fol
each inmate received by chem.
It is estimated at the postoffic'
department that the deficiency in tn
revenues of the postal service for tn
fiacal year just ended will be abou
$4,OOO,O00; last year it was some
thing over $5,500,000.
