CHUNG LEE MAKES TROUBLE.
Georgia's Colorcd Washerwomen Will Not
Tolerate Chinese Competition.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D1srArcH,I
ALBANY, GA, January 1S.-The arrival
of Chinese laundry from San Francisco
has precipitated genuine war of races
with the negro washerwomen on the one
side and the terrified Chinese on the other.
Several years ago two Chinese set up busi-
ness iu this city and were driven out bv the
negroes, who looked upon them as unfair
competitors in the business. The appear
ance of Chung Lee yesterday, therefore, and
his declared purpose to open up at the old
stand, at once aroused the colored people,
and they freely avow that there will be a
dead Chinese in town if he attempts to take
in washing here.

He Has Fitteen hundred wives


French missionary who has just
returned from Uganda, shares the opin-
lon held by 50 many authorities that
Stanley Is safe. He declares il is alb
solutely impossible that, il Stanley had
succumbed 70 an attack. the news
should not have reached The missions.
Ii seems TINT when the intrepid trav-
eler started from the falls report was
spread that be was going to "eat up
Uganda. according 10 the expression
in fashion IN those benighted regions.
The missionary thinks that Stanley is
keeping quiet for the present, either
because be has some political project
ia view, which is not yet ripe, or be-
cause he fears that his appearance
might lead TO massacre Of the English
and French missionaries, particularly
OF the former, who are now az the court
Of Monanga, the sovereign Of Uganda.
The same Monanga is described as
puissant negro king, ruling over ten
million subjects and as ferocious as he
Is powerful He is accredited with
being the happy possessor of fifteen
hundred wives, FIVE OF whom he daily
kills OF for his amusement. Some time
ago Monanga received from Asia Minor,
through the medium OF slave-dealers in
Egypt, intelligence Of the acquisitions
maes By England and Germany on the
Zanzibar coast He az once assembled
all his couriers and made them swear
that they would exterminate all the
whites who might seek TO ''eat up
Uganda The first result Of
the ceremony was the Imprisonment Of
Mr.. Gordon, an English missionary, who
had unluckly selected that very day
10 read out TO Monanga a letter from
Mr.. Parker, a fellow missionary, re-
preaching that monarch with his enor-
mites and exhorting him TO turn over
new leaf. Mr.. Gordon is, or was, in
durance as hostage. Monangas very
unpleasant behavior towards him warn
cd the French missionaries to with
draw from his domtnions, the only one
who has remained behind being M.
Sourdei, whose medical skill has been
highly appreciated by the tyrant, who
has n decided horror OF death. Mon
anga Is the largest slave-trader in con-
trail Africa. He supplies the Moham-
medan dealers annually with about
10000 slaves, which are transported
from the Zanzibar coast 20 the Persian
gulf and the Euphrates Landed on
the shores OF Arabia the victims are
sent TO Asiatic Turkey, where they are
sold ION the sly" through the medium
Of pashas, who receive about ten francs
per head for their trouble. Many how
ever. die on the road, and sometimes a
whole cargo OF these poor people are
carried off by sickness. In short, the
story told by this missionary is simply
heartrendering and he evidently in
clines TO the view that Stanley has been
excepting dark through the fear that
the whites whom Monanga had in his
mower might be summarily put to
death. with insult and torture. --ES.

DAYTON Cohlo) Democrat, Dec. eLh.

Dayton Cohio) Democrat. Dec. 6th.
Two Of the luckiest young men in the
city of Dayton are Edmond G. and
George G. Albert, who held one-twen-
tieth of ticket No. 56,62l, which drew
the first capital prize Of $500, 900 in the
drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery,
made in New Orleans on the 18th of No
Yember.
Last evening a Democrat reporter
visited the home of the Albert boys.
George is eighteen years OF age and
works at the shops of the National Cash
Register company, while Edmond is
twenty years of age and is employed al
Stoddard's machine shops.
In answer to the reporters questions,
Mr.. George Albert said: i bought the
ticket on November Sd in partnership
with my brother, it costing MS half a
dollar apiece. We discovered that we
had drawn the money and kept the news
quiet until we placed the matter in the
hands of Mr.. ]. G. Reber, the cashier oil
the Winters National Bank, in whom
we have implicit confidence, and he col.
lected the SIS, 600 for us, aud it is now
to our credit in the bank.
Both the brothers take their good
luck very sensibly. They have always
been honest and handwriting. Theil
father, Casper Albert, a respectable bar
Der, died several years ago, and they
have had hard and uphill work, assist
ing their widowed mother to support
the family. They now own their coy
cottage home on Maple street, and the
lift the prize they have won has given
them places them in comfortable cir
cumstances.

Iron and steel are protected from oxi-

imenting NJ. de Meritens, the French
electrician, has succeeded in eifecting
this more satisfactorily than by the
methods now in use, which require
eight or ten days for steel and give only
imperfect results for iron. He places
the article in o bath of pure water at a
