Mamma, please tell me story" said
little four-year-old. as he was being
put to bed last evening.
Every well, my dear, what shall tell
you abOut?"
''Tell me about a fish, mamma"
"Once upon a time there was a man
who was very fond of fishing. He
bought $50 fish-red, $40 reel to wind
the line up on, and he bought pretty
little hooks, some with feathers n,some
with little fishes on,and some with frogs
and little graSShOpperS on, and a great
many other pretty things used in fish
ing which mammals little boy wouldn't
understand. But this man paid a great
deal of money for them"
Zone hot day this man made up his
mind to go a-fshing and catch lot of
fish with all this lovely tackle, and he
told his wife not to buy anything for
dinner because he would bring home a
basketful of real live fish. His wife
waited for him to return long time
after the dinner hour. Finally he came.
His wife ran to meet him. She opened
his pretty fish basket, and what do you
suppose she saw?"
"A great big fish," said the little
fOur-year-Old, who was now intensely
interested.
"Oh, no." said mamma. "The man
had caught an eel about as long as
papa's lead pencil"
''And what became of all the pretty
fishin' things?" asked the little one.
II don't know, my s."
"Martha!" exclaimed a masculine
voice from the adjoining sitting room.
"Will you come out of that room and
let the child go to sleep? Is it possible
you expect me to work with such cackle

Harrison Managers Attempt the
Colonization Scheme in New
.IarSaU

Jersey.
Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, Sept. S.-The republicans
are growing desperate. They tried to
colonize West Virginia, but were found
out in time. Now it has been learned
that they are trying the same little
game in New Jersey. To-day the
scheme in detail was discovered. 1t
appears that the plan is to colOnize ne
gr0es in Camden and other points in
South Jersey, and thus swell the Re-
publican vote at the presidential cleo
ton. The game is nOta new one, and
has been practiced before in Camden
and elsewhere in that state, with
more or less success. Two meetings
have been held in this city in
in the vicinity of Eleventh and Lom-
bard streets for the purpose of COM
pleting arrangements for the transfer
of 200 or more cOlOred men from the
Seventh and Eighth wards to the other
side of the Delaware river. A negro
who was asked to go to Centerville in
the Eighth ward Of Camden,
to have himself registered, has
given information to the Democratic
managers here which will etfectually
DlOCh lu6 SCuGIllCs lCCduJlOllo Will
now be taken by the Democratic cOun-
ty committee of Camden to prevent
false registration in any part of Cam
den, and particularly in the lower
wards of that city, where the col
ored vote predominates. 1t is believed
that other attempts will be made
in different parts of the state to run re-
peaters through various election dis
tricts. with the hope of sweeping the
state into the Republican column. The
negroes who were to be shipped to Cam
den were intended to duty in the Fifth,
Seventh and Eighth wards of Camden,
and were then to be run through
the townships. Center town.
ship contains a large colored vote,
and these men were to be given resi-
dences among the huts of Snow hill;
now that the project has been uncOv-
cred the Democratic managers of Cam
dem announce that they will promptly
cause the arrest of every person ell
gagged in false registration, or who at
tempts to east fraudulent vote on elec-

PIERCE's PREDICTION.
The Ex-Governor of Dakota Talks
of the Sioux Commission and the
Possibilities of an Indian War.

CHICAGO, Sept. s.-Ex-Gov. Pierce.
of Dakota, who is in the city this even
ing, was asked his opinion
about the probabilities of the In
dians signing the treaty for the
opening of the great Sioux reservation.
He thinks they will sign the treaty in
the end without modification by con-
gress. The commissioners, he said,'
probably began wrong. The Indians
like to argue and like presents and
this commission has not been giving
any presents. Sitting Bull, John Grass,
and Gall will, he thinks, come around
in time. Gall said in his speech
before the commission that. the I'M
dians are multiplying so rapidly tina
in few years they will need all thei g
land for their own use. Gov. Pierce
thinks this was good point,
and says that the Indian race is
not becoming extinct by any means!
With regard to the reported uprising
among the Gros Ventres, Piegans,
Sioux and Crows, the governor said:
"There will never be another Indian
war. OF course, there may be little
trouble now and then, but no gem
eral disaffectiOn, no war. All the la7,
dians who are dangerous are the Sioux
corralled at Standing Rock, and they
have not the confidence in their chiefs
they formerly had.
