But just as sure as there is a sun in

fresh arrivals are seen ,on the streets.
There IL nothing to prevent them
coming, but everything to induce.
There is no valley in the world that

The Founder OF HOm@O Opathy.

Translated for the Boston Journal
PARIS, April 13.-The homeopathic
physicians and chemists of Paris have
held a banquet to celebrate tho anui-
versary OF the birth OF Samuel Hahne-
mann, the founder of the medical sys-
tenn to which they belong.
The first important cure of Iahnc-
mann which established his reputation
NJ. LeGouve in 1885, Hahnemann being
at that time already advanced in years.

dying and had been given up by the
doctors, who had exhausted all reme-
dies: The despairing parents had al 80

Legouves, the artist Amaury Duval,
was painting the portrait OF the poor
little sufferer. Upon flushing his
task it suddenly occurred to Amaury
Duyal that he had heard Of Hahne-
mann, a German doctor, who, accord
ing 10 report, treated his patients in a
very different manner from that Of the
general profession. Why should they
not call him in, especially as tue regu-
lar physicians had in consultation de-
cided to try nothing further, AS they
could no longer ward OF death:
AT such painful times one catches at
the slightest hope, and running to the
house where Hahnemann lived, in the
Rue Milan Amaury Duvei brought,
him back to his aftl iCted friends.
NJ. Logouve tells OF the singular i'm
preston that Hahnemaun made upon
him, even in such moment. He APP

a cotored girl sixteen or seventeen
years old whose parents reside ten or
twelve miles south OF Vernon in Jack
son parish, committed suicide by hang-
ing herself last week. She had stolen
a purse containing five dollars, aud
knowing that she would be severely
chastised for it was doubtless the cause
of her taking her life. She took q
rope and getting upon q bed tied one
end around her neck and the other
around joist in the house and swung
off. The small children at the house
seeing her do the act became alarmed
and began to scream, when the older
members of the family ran to the house
and on seeing the girl dangling In the
air cut the rope aud let her down. She
gasped few minutes after she was
taken down but died soon afterwards.
Cases Of suicide are exceedingly rare
among the colored race, and this, we
believe is the only case ever reported
in this section.
The negroes say that it was the fear
that she would be "copjured" by the
negro from whom she stole the money
that caused her to hang herself. And
considering the superstitutious nature
of the negro race, 1t is not at all
improbable that their version Of the
affair is correct.-Icuston Cdiigraph.

practical character that was received
with great favor by the gathering. He
said history presents no parallel to that

They have recognized in drink great
social evil and are organizing in every
section of the country to combat it.
They have struck the right note in rec
ognizing that the most efficatious way
to teach is by example. Drunkenness
has been recognized as a great evil for
thousands of years; but it took till how
to discover that the only way to stop
perance men are the first to put in prac-
tice the great truth that great questions
are everybody's business. Temperance
societies tend to cultivate other virtues,
and thus train the nGblest part

great leader of men, a great persuader,

lar policy, and, so far, they had received
every encouragement that their efforts
would be successful. He moved that
the labor associations of st. Paul an d
Minneapolis and outside cities be re-
Quested to appoint deputati0ns to call
upon the mayor and city councils and
secure their assistance In the eight
hour working day. Delegate Nc
Gaughey, in seconding the motion,
wished it to be understood that Minne-
apOlis should be excepted, because,
'sWe have no mayor or city council"
[Laughter.l
Miss McDonald-No; but we have city
railway company. [Renewed laughter.
The motion was agreed to. 1t was
decided that the next meeting OF the
league should be held at Minneapolis
the first Sunday in June. Before the
convention rose several addresses were
delivered.
Aid. Fischer was called upon to speak.
He doubted whether the mayor of st.
Paul or the city council would give
them any encouragement in their agita-
ton for an eight-hour working day.
Mayor Smith was great prOmiSer. He
promised, but did not perform. The
council had the trick of referring all
such matters to committee and nothing
more was heard of it, but he was going
to Introduce resolution in regard
to the Saturday half holiday to work
ingmen. They would not refer that to
a committee-nO if he could help it,
you bet. [Applause.] He was with
them in this movement, though he
doubted whether it would cure the
whole of the ills under which the labor
alone could do that. E. G. Ives and
Miss Mcdonald also spoke. With re-
spect to the demonstration July 4. it
will probably be held at the state fair
grounds if the permission of the au-
thorities can be obtained. as the races
are not to come off until the 9th of that
month.
