MoRGAN's idea of building up trade
in the Congo Free State by educated
American citizens of color will meet
with approval, even where his coloni-
cation scheme is regarded with dis
favor. Concerning this whole matter,
the St. Louis Republic says:
1t is not likely that there will ever
be any considerable negro emigration
from the United States to the Congo
Free State, but Senator MOrgan's idea
that educated and enterprising Amer
lean negroes should be encouraged to
engage in African trade, presents pos
sibilities of advantage. The Congo
state has future and it would be well
if American negroes could iden tity
themselves with it from the first"
The american negro" is an anon
ally.

THE Waco Day does not dose the
two Newses with soothing syrup
over their review of Hogg's case in
the supreme court, as witness:
The News is as wild in its estimate
of losses occasioned by the supreme
courts decision as ever Col. Sellers
was in the estimated profits to be re-
allied from his financial undertake
ings, and what is worse the public
will believe not love of truth but,
venom prompts the young one at Dali
las and the old one at Galveston to
knife Gen. Hogg on all occasions,
irrespective of the facts connected
with the matter men toned. If these
two papers continue their vigorous
attacks on Mr.. Hogg they will sue
coed in making Mr.. Hogg as popular
with the masses as by like process
the old one made Senator Coke some
years ago.

THE Austrian government is after
the immigration agencies of that
country and is making it very sultry
for them. Leading railway and
steamship lines are implicated and
the prosecution will be to the bitter
end. The poor peasants who could
neither read nor write were fairly
forced to sell their properties in Gala
cha and emigrate and in many in
stances were robbed of all they had by
the agents before being shipped to
American ports. The Jail is opening
for scores of these agents.

If you steal from man in Texas
kill him Immediately after. 1t is
cheaper. At least this seems to be
the moral decision from the. following
Day editorials:
In the district court at Waco, Nov
ember 30, ultimO, jury of twelve
good and true men of McLennan
county gave Jordan Merrett, with
several aliases, six years in the pen
itentiary on a plea of guilty of theft.
Yesterday jury of the same
kind gave Sam Dow five years on
plea of guilty of murder. Murder
comes cheaper than stealing. Jordan
Merrett stole a coat and vest worth
probably S25. Sam Dow stabbed
Henry Marshall to death, and not in
self defense, either.
Life is cheap and clothing is dear
in the Lone Star state.

Parts of Colorado Are We'll Shaken
 Up-A Peculiar Phenomenon.
 DENVER, Col, Jan. 25.-Information just received from Routs, Col, shows that that portion of the State has been treated to g genuine earthquake. The shocks com- menced on the afternoon of the 18th instant and at o'clock there were violent ones which rocked small buildings, detached large masses of rocks from the mountains and greatly frightened people and animals. The cattle were especially terrorized and ran fran- tically back and forth. Thunder preceded the shocks, but there was no rain A peculiar phenomenon was observed at Hot Springs, below the government bridge. The shock was productive of great gushes of water and gas Fully three times the ordinary amount of water and gas was thrown out, and accom- panying it was most sulphurous stench that made the people sick and cause birds to drop to the ground. When the convulsions ceased the water reeeded and there was the sound like the rushing of great river. The course of the shock was from south north ward.

SPORTING MATTERS

| A Lively Game and New Haven Wins l From Hartford to 5.New Haven Makes Five Goals That Do Nos Count l -Bridseports Ahead and New Haven a Better Percentage Than at Any l 0sher Time.
 ! phatio in praise of the playing of the New Ravens last night. They won the game twice over, but they made five goals that did not count-2 by Hill, 9 by Connors and one by Newcomb, as the ball came out of the cage.
 Both teams did splendid work, and in the last ten minutes everybody was cheering as the score was tie.
 The game finally rasulted in a victory to the home team to 5.
 The features of the game were the two goals that Hill and Newcomb and Corners and Sealy made. When the score was 6 tie Cotter and Sealy worked like bravers.
 The home team started in well. The first goal was made by Hill, who drove the ball from center past the whole Hartford team. It was magnificent play, and the rink rang with applause as in olden times. The second was made by Connors from the side mis- pass by Smith from behind the cage. In the third goal Connors caged the ball, but it came out. Then one of the finest runs this s66S0u was HccOmpllSn6Q DJ OOQuOrS, Wl0 juggled the ball past both Smith and Sul- livan, caging the ball from the side. The fourth goal was another bit of excellent play ing, and Newoomb was the hero. Connors passed the bali to him and he ju9gled it past Sullivan, doing good hesdwork in accom- plishing it, rarely does a man get past Hartford's half-back. Newcomb caged the ball. In the fifth goal NoCarthy fell in goal and prevented goal. Finally Hill made drive which Mccarthy stopped, and as Hill caught it on the side he carried it back of Hartfords cage followed by Sealy. Passing it out to Newcomb the latter caged it.
 In the sixth Hill caged the ball again from the center, it striking Mccarthy and glane- ing off into the cage. But it didn't stay. Phelan had nice chance to pass, but was on the point of driving when Hill told him to pass. It was too late, and he made miss pass to Cotter, who rushed down and scoop ed the ball in. In the seventh Sealy passed both Hill and Phelan. Nobody was covering Cotter ill the next two goals and he made them easily.
 This tied the score. New Haven had sure goal, but Cotter and Mccarthy fell in the goal circle, Cotter hanging on to the cage. A foul was called on Cotter. Hill then caged the ball, but 1t came out, but he put ] it in to stay shortly after, although Mccarthy ! caught the ball with his hockey It came out on the floor, but it was in the netting. The twelfth was neat bit of scientific work. Connors caged the ball from the side and it din not stay, but Newcomb was on Qand and sent it back for good. This set tied the game. The score:

The sachem,s Trophy.

PROVIDENCE, Jan. 25.-The cup presented
 by J. Pierrpont Morgan to Nessrs. Owen and
 Metcalf of this oity, late owners of the schooner Sachem, as the trophy for the
 Vineyard to Marblehead race for the season
 of 1887, is attracting good deal of attention
 here from the fact that it is an old English
 trophy of the time of George W.
 It is gold cup, that is 18k
 gold plated on solid silver which is the ooms
 position of what is known as the gold ser vice of the royal household and is in the form of bowl about fifteen inches high and ten inches diameter of mouth richly embel- lished though the work of adornment is not SO fine as that of the present day. It bears the makers legend "Hamlet, goldsmith to His Majesty, H. R. H., the Duke of Clar- ence and royal family" and this with the hall marks indicates its manufacture to have been between 1920 and 1899. The cup is valued at one thousand dollars.

MOORE THE DRFAULTER.

He Refuses 60 be KRterviewed-Also
 Agent for Fire Companies.
 HARTFORD, Jan. 25.-Mr. Joseph A. Moore of Indianapolis, the dsfaulting insurance agent, has not yet been arrested and no criminal proceedings have been begun against him. He is remaining in seclusion in Indi- annapolis and positively refuses to see any body or say anything for publication about his stealings, He was also agent for the German-Amsrican, Firemen's Fund, City of London and Imperial of London Insurance companies, and Is supposed to be short in his accounts with them. Nothing definite is known about this, however.
 The defalcation created big stir in insur- ance circles in this city, yet the great wealth and soIidity of the Connecticut Mutual is so we'll assured that not the slightest fear Is felt in regard to the stability and prosperity. The Hartford papers editorially assure the pub lie of the soundness and safety of the com panY,
