The COlored Folks In MARYLAND.

The average negro cares only for the
present. He forgets the past and disre-
CARDS the future. Prospective rainy days
have no terrors for him. II he makes 81
today instead Of his usual fifty cents, he
will not work tomorrow. There are four
preferences which are common to colored
men-linen busters, raZors, chickens and
cathartic pills. To the country darky q
linen buster is the insignia of prosperity.
He generally gets it a size or two too large
and has it well starched. He wears it as
often as he possibly can. Not long ago
an excursion, by water, of colored people,
came here from over the bay. Nearly all
Of them, women as well as men, wore
linen busters. Just why nine negroes ont
of ten carry razors n be explained,
but that they do carry them Is a fact, and
in every free fight some one always gets
slashed. AT a colored camp meeting held
a few weeks age Lis notice was conspicu-
ously posted:
Dinner, 25 ce-ts; with chicken, 30 cents.
1t was the most Eloquent kind Of evil
dence as to the naero's appetite for this
fowl. The boarding tent keeper wa q
man Of experience, and although chicken
was very cheap in that section, he knew
that n twenty-five cent dinner would not
pay for the chicken a colored man could
eat. AS to the pills, the darkies are al
ways imagining themselves sick. They
know OF but one remedy-pills. Cor.

The victories won by the United States
troops in Mexico years ago have generally
been ascribed TO the superior fighting quail
tiles of the Americans over the MeXicans.
But Capt. Lester s. Bartlett, of the Spen-
Ger Rifle company, who was recently in
Mexico, mentioned this theory: can old
Mexican soldier told me that it was the
American sharpshooters that broke up
their troops. All over Mexico you will
find what are called arroyas. They are
what we would call gulches. and occur
everywhere on the plains. They have pre-
cipitous banks and sometimes men walk
into them without seeing them. They seem
to be the riffs at the bottom of a sea which
one day may nave covered the country.
The American rifiemen would drop into
these arroyas, which formed natural rifle
pits for them, and having superior rifles
for those days were able to pick of the
MeXicans before the latter got within
shooting distance with their bell mouth
guns. The slaughter that resulted always
broke up the Mexicans before they got
within lighting distance. New York
Tribune.

Professor Tyndall, in a letter on light.
ming conductors, points out that ths
abolition of resistance is absolutely peces.
sary in connecting a lightning conductor
with the earth, aud this is lone by closely
imbedding in the earth a plate Of good
conducting material and of large area.
The largeness Of area makes atonement
for the imperfect conductivity Of earth.
The plate, in fact, constitutes a wide door
through which the electricity passes
freely into the earth, its descriptive and
damaging effects being thereby avoided.
a common way Of dealing with light
ming conductors adopted by ignorant
practitioners is, DR.. Tyndall remarks, to
carry the wire role which forms part Of
the conductor down the wall ard into the
earth below, where it ends without any
terminal plate. Such a protection" is a
mockery, a delusion and q snare. Some
years ago a rock lighthouse on the irish
coast was struck by lightning, when he
found by the engineers report that the
lightning conductor had been carried
down the lighthouse tower, its lower ex-
tremity being carefully imbedded in a
stone perforated to receive IT. IL the OBJ
ject had been TO invite the lightning to
strike the tower, a better arrangement
could hardly, be believes, have been
adopted. He vetoed the proposal to en-
ploy a chain as a prolongation Of the con-
d%uctor, as the contact Of link with link Is
never perfect.-Sciehtitic American.

Municipal Purity.

Washington special The perennial at
tacks upon the government Of the Dis
trict o. Columbia are in motion, and to
read some of the outside newspapers
one would imagine that everything at
the capital was RAPIDLY going to the dogs,
But for all that Washington Is the best
governed city in the union, and taxation
is not only lower here than elsewhere
but the revenues are economically and
honestly expended. The only just cause
of complaint is too great economy.
There has not been a dollar, stolen here
in any Of the municipal Offices within
the last ten or fifteen years. There have
been no charges of bribery, nc hood
lers," no misappropriation of funds. no
discrimination in assessments, and the
residents Of Washington have less cause
to complain than the inhabitants of
most of the cities Of the world.
The most serious charges hat can be
trumped up against the commissioners
are that Col. Ludlow, the engineer
commissioner, is an autocrat that be is
a "boss," that he DULLES the other
commissioners, and wants his own way
about things. Fault is found with him
because he inserted in the annual report
Of the commissioners a paragraph or two
that had not been read by his colleagues
That is doubtless true. Ludlow is the
ablest and most enterprising mar on the
board, the backbone as well as the
brains Of the district government, and
the other commissioners, having conf
dence in him, alwaysdo as he wants. II
he had happened to consult them about
the paragraph that was inserted in the
report without their consent they would
have agreed to it and the cause Of com
plant wonld not have occurred.
Another charge is that by the extern

Mr.. Sumner was a mar Of simple tastes.
When he dined alone and knew that he
was to have no company but one dish was
served, and that was often a portcrhouse
steak dressed with oysters. This, with
bread and butter and a glass Of claret,
composed his solitary dinner. Occasion
ally he would treat himself to a dinner Of
corned beef and cabbage, il he was sure
there would be time enough before the
arrival Of visitors to disinfeCt his Louise of
the scent. His breakfast, when alone,
would be without meat or fish, and would
consist OF tea, toast, eggs, fruit n some
sort of pancakes and butter; but the tea
would be selected as carefully for the
breakfast As the wine would be for the
dinner. He would brew it himself with
great care. He tool the tea from the tea
caddy himself, placed it dry in a cup,
which had previously been heated by fill
ing with boiling water from the urn; q
teaspoon, which stood in the cup when
the boiling water was poured, remained
in the cup; then boiling water was drawn
from the urn on TO the tea; "a saucer was
inverted over the top, and after it had
stood for several minutes it was consid-
cred ready for drinking.
Once when / was breakfasting with
him he asked my opinion of the particular
tea he had given me, and he was disap-
pointed in my answer. He seemed sur
prised as well, and tasted the tea from his
own cup, snutIing its aroma. Then dip
ping a teaspoon in hot water, he tasted
the mixture in my cup and inhaled its
perfume. This seemed to solve the riddle.

Burbank's Remarkable Speech.

+. III. Carruth contributes the follow
to the Chicago Tribune:
1t was in the summer of 1888 that the
first state" constitutional convention
was held in Dakota. They have since
become very common. Perhaps on an
average of twice a year since that the
territorial politicians have got together
somewhere, and after sitting patiently
for three or four weeks have come off
the nest with a promising brood of
young states. Some of the cutest, down
lest, little pecping states have been
Matched out 10 the territory of Dakota
that you eyer saw. 4 great deal Of
valuable time has been spent by their
mothers in brooding them and scratch
ING for them, and some of them have
reached quite a respectable age but
still Dakota remains a territory, and the
horrible suspicion is gaining ground that
the Dakota estate" roost has been clean
ed ont to make a democratic holiday.
In Dakota statistics the fact should not be
omitted that it contains more state gov
ernments than all other territories com
bined. Sometimes it occurs to my
somewhat weak political understanding
that it would have been better for Da-
kota not to have fooled around at all
trying to fix up homemade states, but
to have gone to congress and bought
one ready made. That's the way the
railroads do when they want anything;
they go right to congress and buy 1t.
The home-manufactured state govern
ment market has deprecated fearfully
of late. Any one desiring to purchase

to drive single or double and not shy at
any appropriation, would do we'll to call

to say.
At the first constitutional convention
held at Sioux Falls in 1888, Judge Bur
bank was present. The judge was a
fluent talker, especially when aroused
by some favorite stimulant. lie deliy
cred one remarkable speech, which,
however, was omitted from the minutes
of the convention. One day with a
senator, a brother Judge, a commodore,
a general and ex-delegate in congress,
he had been down at the bar of the
leading hotel some time and returned to
the hall enthusiastic for statehood. He
got the floor, and s%steadying himself
with one hand on a window sill, spoke
as follows:
"Mr. President and Gentlemen of the
Convention-The question has beer

Astonishing Success.

l. is the duty %ofevery person who has
used Boschee's German Syrup to let it,
wonderful qualities be known to their
friends in curing consumption, severe
coughs, Group, asthma, pneumonia, and
in fact all throat and lung diseases. No
person can use it without immediate
relief. Three doses will relieve any
case, and we consider it the duty of all
druggists to Recommend it to the poor,
dying consnmptive, at least to try one
bottle, as 10000 dozen bottles were sold
last year, and no one case where it
failed was reported. Such Il medicine
as the German syrup cannot be too
widely known. Ask your druggist about
it. Sample bottles to try sold at 10
cents. Regular size rs cents. Sold by
all druggists and dealers, in the United
States and Canada.
