 tried his best to injure MT. and Mrs. Brown.-Prescott Courier.
 Ben Harrison, could he recall much that he has done in the past twelve years would be a much hap
 pier man. It is only fair to say that he would wipe out all that DOT ton of his record where in 1877 he insisted upon putting down work ing men by force of arms, and oh, how eagerly would he destroy that speech, delivered before the Indiana historical society in 1879, when he argued that Chinamen should have the same rights to become citizens that Irish and Dutchmen had. And then, how Ben would go for the Congressional Record /; how he would expunge all those votes of his, to exempt from the restriction laws, "Chinese mechanics, Chinese artisans, all Chinese not classed as laborers." and practically would Ben wipe out all that history about naturalizing Chinamen, contained in the Congressional Record, Al Congress, Volume 13 page 3411.
 The present restriction act con- tained the following:
 "That hereafter no state court or court of the United States shall ad- init Chinese to citizenship, and all laws in conflict with this are hereby repealed"
 This MT. Edmunds moved to strike out and substitute as fol- lows:
 Nothing in this act shall be con- strued to change the existing natur- laws so as to admit Chi nese to citizenship" The effects of which would have been to leave Chinese naturalization to be con- tinued by eastern judges. The six Republican senators from the Paci- fic coast voted against, but Ben, true to his patrician ideas of the brotherhood of man, etc, voted with Sherman, Ingalls,, Hawley & Co.,, for the amendment. The amendment was lost. there was no further naturalization of China men after the bill became a law, but Ben made friends" of all the Chinese in America those who are will vote for him, and all will contribute literally to the campaign fund. The American workingmen are not enthusiastic over Ben's record, their votes will be against him this fall. Ben and his packers are uneasy and unhap- py, notwithstanding they have the Chinese vote.-Tempe News.

= ABOUT HUMMING BIRDS.

The tongue of the humming bird is
split almost to the base, forming two
hollow threads.
The snowy troculus Of the Nile, which
plucks leeches from the mouth of the
crocodile, is species of humming bird.
Among the common species of hum
ming birds is little fellow who. when
his wings are closed. much resembles a
small swordfish in shape.
A rare species Of humming birds
have tails nine inches long. These
tails are vivid green n color, and the
edges of the tail-featherS tipped with
black.
A very curiops and interesting hum
ming bird wears be0ts. These boots
are made Of little tufts of white feath-
ers, which completely encircle the feet.
The white boots are very common.
A rare hummius bird is called THE
Little Rooster OF the Rock He has
wings striped with yellow on blue
background, and his back is d neutral
tint. He is only found in the imme-
diate vicinity of the ''MuSo' emerald
mines.
There are about SEQ different kinds Of
humming, birds. These birds belong
exclusively to the continent Of America
rangenOrth to the arctic region and south
to Patagonia; and from the level of the
sea to the height of the Andes.
One of the curious things about the
humming bird is that when rain begins
to threaten he shoots up into the air for
about 100 feet, poises for moment, and
then dashes down to the ground with a
whirring sound that is as loud as the
whirr of the partridge. When they
hear this signal the other birds seek
cover.
The nest of the humming bird is a
marvellous structure. It is chiefly re-
StructiOn, being woven out of the most
gauzy materials. 1t resembles in some
respects miniature hornets nest. The
door of the nest is made in such a way
that when the bird is inside no other
bird can enter without difficulty.

GETTING TO THE FRONT.
The Rapid Progress Being Made
by q st. Paul Concern.

Inc hap1u Progress Being MADE
by st. Paul Concern.
On the Goth of last month the annual
stockholders meeting Of the Holland &,
Thompson Manufacturing company
was held and the following officers were
elected: President, Il. Holland; vice
president, j. III. Bryant; treasurer, j.
E. Thompson; secretary, j. w. Shea, of
st. Louis. All the remaining stock was
bought up by M. G. WhitmOre, manager
of Leggett d Myers tobacco honse, ST..
Louis. This transaction made the capi-
tai 5000, fully paid up. The new year
was begun very auspiciously, with over
$3.50 in steam heating contracts, among
which might be mentioned that for
the SpauldiDg hotel, In Duluth, and the
Sioux City beef and pork packing
houses. There were also several others
for buildings in st. Paul and vicinity.
This work is making a big reputation
for the company. In November last the
first effort was made to secure st. Paul
and tributary trade in brass goods.
With cOmmendable spirit the company
have gone to infinite trouble and great
expense to educate some young men of
this city in the art of brass moulding
and finishing. Their efforts i'm this di-
ICCtiOu nave prOVeu 50 SATISFACTORY tHdC
statesmen were put Oh the road with the
goods. Dealers showed their apprecia-
tiOn of the cOmpany's enterprise by
liberal purchases. Indeed, within few
days, no less than Sixty-three orders
were sent in. The cOmpany's plant at
South Park is the only one of its kind
west of Chicago. Altogether, consider
ing the tiattering success which the
new management has met with, and
judging from past experience, the
stockholders in the concern may comfort
themselves with the certainty that they
have "a good thing"

AProsn erous Church

At the trustees meeting yesterday
afternoon the officers of Park Congre-
gational church reviewed the financial
condition of that body and found every
reason to congratulate themselves and
the church upon the years work. More
than S24,0O0 has been raised during the
past year for benevolent purposes and
the debt fund. The church is practi-
cally out of debt. and the church prop
erty has cash valuation of about $780,
600. The pews have been rented at
good premiums, a few only remaining
vacant. The congregation under the
recent necessities has been increasing
steadily. The recent addition to the
board of trustees, with the old members,
whose business solidity and energy is
unquestioned, has placed the church in
a condition as satisfactory as that Of any
in the city
