THE FRAUD OF 1894.

Washington Special to Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette: The evidence
exists, and is now attainable, that Mr.
Blaine, and not Mr.. Cleveland, was
elected president in 1884. 1t is late
hour to discover the fact, but it is none
the less important or startling. The
case is in q nutshell II has been often
vaguely charged that votes for Gen.
Butler were counted in for Mr.. Cleve-
land. Gen. Buffers friends now have
the absolute proof. They know, for
instance, that in two districts in New
York city from 1900 to LOO Butler
votes were counted for Cleveland.
These alone, without going further,
would have overcome the Democratic
majority. and have given the electoral
vote of New York to Mr.. Blaiae. 1t
will be remembered that Clevcland's
plurality in New York state was only
1,047. The friends of Gen. Butler have
been looking into this matter for some
time. They declare that they now have
absolute proof. What method they
will take to make this grave matter
known is not determined, but it is not a
matter which they are. likely TO let
sleep for any length of time

tables were used To break the sugar on.
In the center of the room was a large
quartz crusher. The sugar was thrown
into this and crushed. Ii passed
through to the floor below, where it
was sifted in the granulators and
dropped into the tubes, whence it
rushed to The stockholders whenever
there was a demonstration. The raw
sugar was never used at all Friend
evidently intended to get rid of it by
washing it through pipes into the river,
just as he had done at his home months
before. 1t was proudly pointed out to
unbelievers that when friend got raw
sugar the refined product correspond
ed in weight exactly with what was
given him. A nice little pair of scales
standing ut the door of the secret room
showed how this marvel was worked.
Friend simply weighed the raw and the
refined and knew to an ounce how
much he had TO shoot down TO his VIC
Tins below. The factory has five en-

The Banana and Plantain staple Articles
of Diet in the Tropics.


The Banana and Plantain staple Articles
of Diet in the Tropics.
The banana is much softer and more
delicately favored than the plantain.
The fruit when ripe contains seventy
four per cent. of water; of the twenty
six remaining parts, twenty are sugar
and two gluten or fesh-forming sub
stance. Like rice, it is not by itself a
perfect food, but requiring the addition
of some more heterogeneous material as
pulse or lean meat. When dried and
converted into meal, it is less
nutritious than the meal OF the
grain mentioned. In tropical coun-
tries it is, nevertheless, a most val
liable food, and is SO extensively con-
sumed as to take the place of cereal
grains as the ordinary articles of diet.
About six and half pounds of the
fruit, or two pounds of the dry meal
with one-quarter pound OF salt meat or
fish. form in tropical America the
daily allowance for the laborer The
pulp of the plantain is squeezed
through fine sieve and formed into
loaves which, when dried, will keep a
long time. The unripe fruit often be-
comes the staff of life; it is dried in the
oven and is eaten in this State, and will
keep such length of time that natives
carry it with them when proceed
ing on journeys. While unripe
the fruit is filed with starch,
and when dried has a resem-
blance to bread both in taste and COM
position. The loaves made by the
ripened pulp are saccharine and not
farinaceous. There are many in
stances of men subsisting entirely upon
bananas, who have been deserters
from ships in tropical climes. Mr..
Stanley, in his book Across the Dark
Continent frequently mentions ba-
nanas as one of the principal articles OF
food for his party, and as one of the
most important crops of the natives.
He states that villages and banana
folds were always found together.
Also, that in the dwarf lands bananas
as long az his arm and plantains a.
long as the dwarfs Gust one yard
were sufficient food for man one day.

RUN BY A SCORE CARD.
Deacon Richardson's New Method
of Bookkeeping for Horse Cars.

New YORK, September 1.-Deacon Rich
ardson has begun new system Of register
ing fares on his Brooklyn horse cars that is
q source of innocent merriment to passen-
gers and employees. 1t is cause of many in
quiries from irreverent passengers. such as
"Who's ahead?" "What's the score now?"
and yesterday one passenger on Butler
street car, who was presumably an employe,
though not in unif orm, remarked rather Bit
terly that, though the Deacon was good
man, his many schemes were certain to
bring him into unpleasant relations with his
satanic majesty.
The thrift of the Deacon is shown in this
"trip record,'' as he calls it. 1t is printed on
brown manila paper, and a number of the
records are placed in cheap tin holder,
which Is placed In plain cheap yellow pine
contrivance screwed on the front and rear of
the car. There is large placard posted
near, stating that the conductor must record
each and every fare Immediately upon re-
ceipt Blue pencils are used. So far the,
Butler street and the Hicks street lines only
have been provided with these economical
devices, but the other seven lines owned by
Mr.. Richardson are to be at once equipped
in the same way.
I The trip record should be given a conspic-
uous place in the coming Worlds Fair, as
one of the great lab0r-Saving devices OF the
century. After few weeks practice an
intelligent conductor should be able to keep
his record and find time to perform a small
part of his regular duties, at one and the
same time. The conductor as he starts out
must fill up a sort of q certificate, at the top
giving his badge number, the car number,
the run number, the register number, and
the date. Underneath this is. square in
which he must enter "the number of passen-
gers in the car when starting"
Ranged underneath this are 43 blank
squares, giving the record much the appear.

trunks and baskets" This must be done
on the down" and "up" trips, each column
must be carried over into column for grand

This trip record does not do away with the
old-time bell register. The conductor. must
work this harmoniously, for on the "trip rec,

with badges selling papers, and children un-
der three years of age are the only persons
allowed to get on car without being en-
tered in the black squares of the record. A
policeman's number must be entered on a
line marked "Police Numbers" as soon as
he gets on the car
If after this the conductor has piece OF
blue pencil left, all he has to do is to fill in
the hour that he started, the hour that he re-
turned, his name and his drivers name.

Zealandia arrived from Australia, New Zea-

The officers and men were living aboard the

Severance was not received there by the

ago arrived at Apia from the Marshall ISL

days before the Zealandia arrived at Samoa.
Malieto' 'as:return was made the occasion of

The political situation on the islands will
