The high license meeting at Pioneer
Hall yesterday was held with closed
doors, and reporters were excluded. On
the members coming out it was ascertained
that the general public expression of entire
confidence in the Republican nominee,
Mr.. Stevens. and in his record as citizen,
devoted to the best interests OF the city,
led the meeting to take further action.
The committee, il was learned, that went
/ TO interrogate the candidate reported that
4 Mr.. Stevens refused to pledge himself to
|anything that he said his life here was an
Iopen book, and if elected he wanted to
be unirammeled by any promises, and
1 that if elected he would do his duty faith
fully, as be saw it.

THE PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH.
A Strange People Who Have a Languags
Made lIp OF Many Others

Made Up OF Many Others.
1t is not generally known, even by peo-
| pie who have visited america, that there
is in Pennsylvania, very near the cities of
Philadelphia and New York, population
Of more than two million inhabitants
which IS in many respects strangely like
what its rural ancestors were in Germany
more than two centuries ago. Some wears
since there were to be seen 10 shop in
Philadelphia several large books of Luz
theran devotion, in the type and spelling
Of 1910, bound in deeply-stamped white
vellum, with heavy brass clasps.
They did not look like imitation of old
books, says the Boston Transcript they
seemed to be . the thing itself;o but the
date was recent. They are for the Penn
sylvania Dutch" said the bookseller.
"They would not believe that the Lord
would hear them if they prayed to Him
out of modern-looking book. And those
books, rs you see them, have been printed
hundred years for the Pennsylvania Dutch
market, just as they were printed for their
ancestors during the Reformation.
There is, probably, no more striking in
stance of conservatism to be found any
where in Europe than this; but the spirit
manifested by the worthy "Dntchinen" is
carried out by them consistently in every
thing else. "Follow thy father, good son,
and like as thy father before thee has
DONE" is their golden rule of life. Firstly,
they always speak among themselves a
singular patois called Pennsylvania
Dutch, from the word Deutsch. at be-
longs" says DR.. ii. Harbaugh, ''to the
South German dialects" and, while par
taking OF all, 'it is most closely allied to
the Pialzisch' that is to the Rhine
German Of the Palatinate. In the valley
of the Susquehanna and beyond the
Allegheny it is much mingled with
English.
Farther in the West we find in it traces
of Scottish, Irish Swedish and French. 1t
is specially remarkable in its having re-
tanned great numbers of old and curious
German words, such as are now to be
heard only in the remotest places Of the
Fatherland. We find the influence of the
Interchangeable English article the in der.

THE UNION PACIFIC.

The action taken at the late Union Pacific
meeting in Boston, an account of which
appeared in our telegraphic columns a day
or two ago, is full of significance and Ell
enlargement out this way. Taken in con
nection with recent utterances by Union
Pacific officials, we imagine the meeting
will open the eyes Of those national
statesmen who have pers sted in wag II
senseless war against the company. We
take it that the Union Pacific people have
finally adopted policy which has for it's
object the salvation of the company. They
have been working for government these
many years to the neglect of themselves;
trying to satisfy unreasonable people and
comply with demands which could not be
met. 1t now looks as if the company had
concluded that it is useless to attempt to
make peace with those who are asking i'm
possibilities, and as though the rulers of
the great system were going into the rail
way business intelligently and il earnest.
Several years ago the Central Pacific

LONDON SOCIETY is ionizing that cheap
aud vulgar hero, BOULANGRR. This is not
because the English admire such man as
BoULANGER The British like true
hcroism; they admire courage, and delight
to worship the brave man who faces danger
unfiinchingly and stands by cause to the
end at whatever personal risk or suffering.
At the first appearance Of danger BOULAN-
GER fed like coward, and being driven
from the country where he was plotting
against his own land, he has taken refuge
in England, the people there showing him
much attention. This is not because the
English are in love with the man, but be
cause they dislike the French republic Any
body who gives promise of overturning the
French government win find favor among
the British royalists, no matter how much of

A WHITE CASTAWAY.
His Terrible Experience in the Wilds of
Africa

His Terrible Experience in the WiIds of
Africa.
Africa contains over 100000 miles in
area and has over 20,00O,0OO inhabitants
In such q vast and almost unknown coun-
try thrilling adventures are of everyday
occurance, and the traveller hunter and ex-
plorer is subject to perils peculiar to Africa
alone. Of such was the experience of Mr..
Deane one Of the agents of the Congo free
state. He was in command of Stanley Falls
station when it was attacked by the Arabs.
Deane with his comrades, Dubois and four
Haussa soldiers, fed from the station, and
it was not long before Dubois fell into the
river and was drowned. Deane and mis-
soldiers pushed on all night in drenching
rain, and only stopped at daylight for
short rest while Deane' clothes were hang
ing on the bushes to dry. A shout in the
rear told them that they were discovered
and that the Arabs were in hot pursuit.
Deane had just time to throw his clothes
over his arm and start at full speed through
the bush, followed by his attendants. 1t
was nearly noon before they succeeded in
distancing their pursuers, and by that time
it was most woe begOne band of fugitiVes.
In the mad race for life every Haussa had
lost his gun, and not a weOpon of any sort
was ltli III IuS party. Ouc DN one Deduc
had dropped his garments, and he had
nothing left except small military cape.
which he threw over his shoulders. III the
midst of the African jungle he had not the
slightest protection for his bleeding feet.
and even if he had saved his boots he would
not have dared to put them on, for the
tracks would have revealed to any proving
Arab or hostile native that white man
was in the neighbOrhOod. a cannibal tribe
with whom Deane himself had had a serious
fight, lined the river below, and he dared
not appeal to them for succor. He was
800 miles from the nearest white station Of
Bangala. All that could be done was to
struggle down the river, through the dense
brush and forests, several miles inland,
avoiding all the tubes except one or two
that were known to be friendly, and living
on whatever they could pick up that Would
afford nutriment. For four weeks, says
the La Parte Herald, this white cantaway
wandered through the country, living on
wild grapes, fried ants and caterpillars, and
sleeping at night on the bare earth, with no
covering but dried leaves. At last they
came to the Bakuma tribe, and shortly at
terward were rescued by Captain COqui-
hart, who had been sent in search of Deane.
1t was an experience that not one white
man in thousand could have lived to re
