The horrors of the hangman's moose does
not seem to possess sufficient terrors to
prevent murder. A most foul and cold
blooded deed was committed in Cincinnati,
yesterday afternoon. 1t seems to have been
a premeditated and deliberately planned
murder, but there will be long and tedious
delays, TO satisfy the law and the lawyers in
their attempt to cheat the gallows Of .

Twice year the fishers set off for tho coral

three hundred open boats of from eight to
twenty tons burden and with a single lateen
sail in each. The crews consist almost en-.
tirely of black slaves, who receive two-thirds
of the catch while the other third goes to

calm tho fishers anchor the boats near the
coral reefs, and, going out in canoes to the
fishing grounds, dive for the shells The
slaves are all ages from 10 to 40 years, and
are remarkably strong and healthy. The

The dread of ghosts is common to all
aboriginal races of India, from which it
has been very generally adopted by their
Aryan conquerors. and even by the lower
classes of Mohammedans. All ghosts
are believed to be mischievous, and some
of them bitterly malicious, and the only
means employed to oppose their rancor
is TO build shrines for them, and to make
them offerings of fowl. pig, or. on
grand occasions. of buffalo Any severe
illness. and more especially any epidemic
disease, such as smallpox or cholera, is
attributed TO the malignancy of certain
of these spirits, who must be propitiated
accordingly.
The man tiger Is, perhaps, the most
dreaded of all these demon ghosts; for
when q tiger has killed man the tiger is
considered safe from harm, as the spirit
of the man rides upon his head and guides
him clear of danger. Accordingly. 1t is
believed that ''the only sure mode OF de-
stroying tiger who has killed many peo-
pie Is to begin by making offerings to the
spirits of his victims, thereby depriving
him of their valuable services" The
ghosts most propitiated are of those who
have met violent or untimely death,
whether by design or by accident. inclu-
ding poison and disease. Even wretches
vino are hanged for their crimes are be-
lieved to have the same powers of causing
evil to the living as those who have been
killed by tigers or by lightning or by any
other violent cause.--London Graphic

Yesterday was great day in Indianapo-
lis. Several delegations from different
posts Of Indiana and Illinois called upon
Senator Harrison and were addressed in a
telling manner, upon the issues Of the cam
paign. by the republican standard bearer.
Here is a meaty sentence from one of
several short speeches made during the day:
s.The protective system Is barrier
against the flood of foreign importations
and the competition of under-paid labor in
Europe. Those who want to lower the
dixie owe Ii to those who live behind il to
make plain statement of their purposes.
Do they want TO invite the flood, or do they
believe in the dixie, but think it will afford
adequate protection at lower levei?"
In the last issue of the Irish World,
Patrick Ford refers to the part which the
working people took in the recent demon
stration TO Blaine, as follows:
The working people constitute the
wealth producers of the country and their
interests are more directly affected than
any other by the free trade conspiracy rep.
resented by Cleveland and his labOr-hating
allies of the south. assisted, as In 1861, by
England and her Tory-worshipers in Amer
lea With the wage-workers the issue
whether the protective system shall
be permitted to be under
mined and destroyed is Of
immediate and most pressing Importance,
and they come TO welcome Mr.. Blaine, not
as republican, but as the foremost cham
pion of protection and encouragement to
diversified industry in America Let those
whose selfish ambitions have led them to
attempt the sacrifice Of the interests of
labor to further political schemes take warn
ing from this demonstration, and read in the
overwhelming defeat which awaits them,
the folly as well as the crime of attempting
to undo the work Of Yorktown and Appo-
mattox by reducing our free, Intelligent.
and ambitious citizen labor to the level of
the impoverished, seryile, and starving
workers Of Europa
