THE BEE HIVE.

\ great many of our readers will
have occasion to visit the city of Port
Huron, either OH pleasure or business.
Now we desire to say to you that when
you go there, about the first thing you
do, take a run up Huron ave. to the
city hall and court house. Cast your
eye around the street OH the opposite
corner and you will see the great Bee
Hive Bazaar, double front, plate glass
windows. Go at once into the estab-
lishment and you will see the finest,
roomiest and most attractive store in
eastern Michigan. More than that,
will see the greatest variety of goods,
useful and ornamental articles, ever
put under one roof in this part of the
state. 1t really looks like museum,
and is well named the Bee Hive Bazaar.
What is still better they have the repu-
tation of selling goods for less money
than they can be bought for in any
other similar store. You can't help
enjoying a visit there, and you ought
not to go to Port Huron without TAX
ing in the Bee live.
The proprietors make their business
known through the papers. They are
active, pushing. enterprising men and
can't help but succeed. See their adj
vertisement in another column of this
paper,

Keep the Ball Rolling.
I of the ENpnsIrOR;

To the Editor of the EXPosITOR:
The people of the Village and more
especially the respectable and brainy
taxpayers have come to the front and
had their say, SO j. ID. Grinnell and his
scribe and others atllliating with them
know that what Veritas and Grinnell
called an emphatic declaration OF the
people last year is reversed this year
by another emphatic declaration that
tho combination is not wanted.
The writer has the pleasure of knowing
that the people of the village have sus-
tanned him in his efforts through the
EXPOSITOR by electing ticket that
he openly in caucus named himself Tex
cept VIM. Strong, and his defeat was
the work of personal enemy but a
first-clasS man takes his place. viz: Phil
ip McDougall and all is right.
But the same voters who condemned
the combination and demanded the
collection of liquor tax hope will
not forget that about $1,000 of town
ship liquor tax has been lost to town
ship by another combination. Vii
lage tax payers you must know that
every dollar of this liquor tax that is
not collected, is taken pro rata from
our pockets. have faith that you
will not tolerate such and at the polls
Monday April I'd. condemn it us you
have in the village. Yours.

There is q general impression that
all the slave markets OF the world
have been closed. Brazil was the
last of all the South American States
to hold men in slavery. But that en-
pire has liberated all the slaves. The
West India Islands no longer furnish
. market. Cargoes were formerly
run into Cuba. But slavery is in
process of rapid extinguishment In
that island. A vessel is yet afoat
which brought the last cargo OF slaves
to the United States. For many
years, and up to recent dates, the
number of slaves annually exported
under the Sultan of Zanzibar ranged
from thirty thousand to fifty thou
sand. The West African coast trade
| in slaves was stopped many years
ago. British and American ships
guarded the coast so strictly that il
was not easy for slavers to get to sea
although until recently some slave
have, probably, been shipped by tn
way of the Portuguese settlement
near the mouth of the Congo. Bu
the slave markets are not readil
reached from the western side of Al
rica. If SLAYER were to receive
cargo on that side there would be tn
long voyage around the Cape
Good Hope and up among the islane
of the Indian Ocean before any ma
ket could be found.

He received after death the honor OF

also honored with mausoleum IN
the Vatican after his death, and while
living was fed upon almonds and

Ell PAso, Nov. 2-The boldest
train robbery which ever occurred in
the history of the Southwest took
place yesterday morning few miles
north of San Jose, on the Mexican
Central railroad, eighty miles south
of Ell Paso. Three masked men,
heavily armed, stopped the train and
secured $4,000 in money. They
then mounted the locomotive, cut
loose from the train and travelled north
When within three miles of Paso del
Norte they left the locomotive and
reversed the engine. 1t ran twenty
or thirty miles, when, at the beginning
of heavy grade, the steam became
exhausted and it stopped. The tran
robbers are, however, undoubtedly Oh
American soil.

THE telephone was kept red hot
Tuesday night, and portion of the
day Wednesday, receiving Presiden-
tial news, but nothing definite was
received until Wednesday night about
nine o'clock, when the news was tel
ephoned that Harrison had overcome
the huge majority of Cleveland in
New York and Kings counties, and
the big gain over his vote in 1854
Harrison outside of those counties,
kept gaining, and receiving higher
vote than Blaine received. When
Harrison passed Cleveland, $4,000
votes were to hear from. About ten
o'clock dispatch was received thai
the returns were all in, and Harrison
1000 ahead. 1t was amusing te
watch the countcnances OF the ex
cited crowd as the returns came IN
One minute one side would be jubi
liant, arise, enthuse and gesticulate
and say, "we've got 'em!" The'
further returns would come, and tn
other side, downcast and serious
would arouse, brighten up, make
great racket, and proclaim that SD
the eternals we're on top and WI
stay there!" The lettering CONTINUES

The deputy sheriff Of Union county,
Oregon, James Lowell, came in here
Saturday and applied to 10. Wilson,
sheriff of this county, to discover the
whereabouts of two women by the
name Of Matte Alder and Agnes
Hale, who were accused of murder in
Seattle, by administering morphine
to the former husband Of Mattie, Al
der. Matte soon after took Alder
for husband and they, with her sis
ter, Agnes Hale, who says she is mar
ried, came to La Grande, Oregon,
where they were all arrested for this
murder, but no requisition came from
the governor Of Washington Terri
tory for . week or SO after the arrest,
and the women were set at liberty,
but Alder is still in Jail in La Grande.
When q requisition came the women
had left for the East, but for what
point was not known. The Union
county sheriff went East as far as
Wyoming, but getting no trace re-
turned and found they had got off at
Caldwell, but not finding them there,
he came up here, and on describing
the women, Sheriff Wilson soon went
to the places where they were stop
ping, one at the Western hotel and
the other at the Green Meadow res
taurant. The sheriff of Union coun-
| ly, Oregon, told them his business,
and on their promise to return to Ore
gon voluntarily if he would not Jail
them here, he took them to the Cen
trail hotel and gave them rooms, but
placed a guard over the rooms, where
they remained Sunday night, and they
all left on yesterday mornings train
for La Grande, Oregon, where Alder
will be taken iu and all will taken to
Seattle to answer the charge of mur.
der. We know nothing about the
merits of the charge and nothing
about the history of the women
though our reporter said, from thei
own story they had been too mucl
J married and their lives looked lIttl'
checkered. Matte is about 35 year!
old, and Agnes is about 20.
