HEARD FROM STANLEY.
The African Explorer at the Head
of a Party of Natives.

BERLIN, Nov. 2O.-The Reichs Anzeiger
has dispatch from Capt. Wissmann, dated
Mpwapwa, Oct. 13. The dispatch says:
-Four of Stanley's men and one of Emin's
soldiers have arrived here. They left STAN
ley at Neukmma on Aug. 10 and came by
way of Noembo and Mweriewero north to
Mgogo in thirty-three days, including nine
days on which they rested. Emin and Ca
sati had 300 Soudanese soldiers and many
other followers with them. They had in
their possession large quantity of ivory.
Stanley had force Of 24O Zanzibaris, and
was accompanied by his six lieutenants
Nelson, Jephson, Stairs, Parke, Bonny and
William. The expedition struck camp as
soon as the messengers started. Therefore
the party should reach Mpwapwa by Nov.
and repulsed the Mahdists, capturing the
Mahdis grand banner. A majority OF
Emin's soldiers refused to follow him south
ward, asserting that their way home did not
lie in that direction. Emin left two Egyp-
tan officers in charge of stations. The mes.
sengers have no knowledge of the Senoussi
massacre, or OF events in Khartoum and
Abyssinia.
Capt. Wissmann adds that the English
missionaries at Kisouke and Mamboia
needed protection until the fate of Bushiri
was decided Although On good terms
with the natives, the missionaries were left
unprotected, and had to be called inside the
German station. Regarding neighboring
tribes, Capt. Wissmann did not believe that
the Nasal would engage in hostihties
against the station, but the marauding
Wahehe, with whom Bushiri possibly had
his headquarters, had to be kept in check.
Bushiri possessed only a few guns.
Capt. Wissmann's dispatch is dated Fan
zibar, Nov. 20. Besides Stanley, all the
European members Of the expedition and
Schinze and Hoffman, and other mission
aries have arrived at Mpwapwa. All are
well. Capt. Wissmann expects the party to.

LET CIVIL LAW BE RESPECTED.

The spectacle just now presented at
Wharton is one not very edifying to the
people of great state. In one of the old
est communities of Texas it has become
necessary to employ military force in the
attempt to keep the peace between two
factions-the Jaybirds and Woodpeckers,
as they are called in Fort Bend county
between the friends Of Kyle Terry and
the extensive and powerful following OF
the Gibson family, who are en-
ragged at the staying of young
Ed. Gibson and bent on revenge.
While doubling neither the wisdom nor
the policy of the state government in in
terfering by the dispatch of state troops
to Wharton on the urgent request of the
civil authorities, it is nevertheless cause
for regret that such an exigency should
ever have arisen, or the necessity even OF
supplementing the civil with
the military power. The fact is, in the re-
gion which has been stirred up by the
Terry Gibson tragedy, like many other
localities in this state, it has lost its respect
for the civil law and confidence in the
ability of the civil power to protect the
citizens. This is because our criminal
laws are not executed; high and
infamous crimes go unpublished;
and the result is-as We see in Wharton
and Fort Bend to-day-every man relies
for protection, not upon the laws OF his
state but upon his hip pocket. Had Terry
had any respect for the law or any fear OF
punishment at the HANDS of a jury, Gibson
would not have been deliberately shot
down in the streets of Wharton.
No incident in the criminal
history of Texas for the last
five years has more Enthusiastically
indicated the necessity of reform
in the criminal procedure of this state.
We can never call our system of criminal
law efficient or thorough by protective until
it is executed in such manner as to make
the civil power not only respected but
feared. We must make the civil authority
supreme in fact as we'll as in name, and
strong and reliable enough to make the
calling for military force unnecessary.

Women Braver Than Men.

In the course of a recent interview Doc
tor Shrady, the editor of the Medical Rec
ord and one of the physicians who at
tended General Grant in his last illness,
was asked whether his experience as a
medical man had led him to believe that
death is painless.
Speaking generally" said he, "the
death agony is very rarely attended by
pain, because the system is always pre-
pared for death by weakening of the
vital forces, by the circulation of impure
blood through the brain and by the OBJ
funding of the nerves. Of course, some
people have more pain than others, and
this is largely determined by the tempera-
ment.
"a nervous man-all other things being
equal-suffers more pain than man who
has enjoyed robust health, because the
nervous mans sensibilities are stronger,
but the pain of death is more in the antici-
patton of it than in the reality. The in
stinot for life is stronger in man, and the
teachings of the present day,as well as the
writings of our noyelists, do not make the
majority of men any the more ready to re-
linquish life.
"Men of education face death with
greater fortltude than men who are not
educated. Philosophy has great deal to
do with the art of dying, although the
Christian religion has been great COM
fort to the human race in preparing the
way for death, and in giving hope of a
life hereafter, amounting, in some cases,
almost to a realization of better country
beyond the line of time.
"Women are almost always pluckier
than men. They endure pain much peter.
Have you ever observed how irritable a
man is who is suffering from toothsche or
neuralgia? but woman will often suffer
without a murmur. All other things being
equal, woman will face death with more
celmness and fortitude than a man, which
may be partly accounted for from the fact
that the instinct for life is stronger in q
man, and his habits and surrounding
have trained him not to give in so easily

GENERAL SIMON CAMERON.

The dispatches this morning announce
the death of General Simon Cameron.
He was stricken with paralysis at his home
near Lancaster, Penn, few days since
and died yesterday. General Cameron
was an able and in many respects re-
markable man, who for nearly half a
century was the autocrat of the politics of
his state. He was 80 years old on the Sth
of last March. He was educated in
the country schools, subsequently
learned the printers trade and for
several years edited news
paper. He was for time aijutant-gen-
eral Of Pennsy lvania. Afterwards he
turned his attention to the improvement
of the mouth of the Mississippi river.
He was recalled from his work on the
Lake Ponchartrain canal by a summons
from Major Eaton, secretary of war under
President Jackson, who req uested him to
return to Pennsylvania and organize G
delegation to the national convention
which had been called to meet in Balti
more. This was in the interest of Martin
Van Buren, for the presidency. This
was the first national convention. ever helt
in the United States.
In 1888 President Van Buren, rendered
to General Cameron the appointment Of
commissioner, with James Muir
ray, of Maryland, under a treaty
with the Winnebago Indians. Fl,

Why Women Should Vote.

Alice Stone Blackwell, editor of The
Woman's Column, published in Boston
tells in the following language why women
should vote: The general argument for
letting women vote is the same as the ar
gument for having republican form OF
government rather than a monarchy. II
is fair and right that those who are to
obey the laws should have voice in max
ing them, and that those who pay taxes
should have a voice as to the amount OF
the tax and the way in which it shall be
spent The fundamental principle of q
republican government, roughly stated
is this: In deciding what shall be
done, where everybody's interests are
concerned, we take everybody's opinion
aud go according to the wish of the
majority. AS we cannot suit everybody,
we do what will suit the greatest number.
That seems to be, upon the whole, the
fsirest way. vote is merely written
expression of opinion. 1t is written down
and put into box, so that it can be
counted.
In thus taking the sense of the oomDu-
nifty certain classes of persons are always
passed over, whose opinions. for one rea-
son or another, are not thought worth
counting. The laws of different states
differ, but all agree in excluding minors,
idiots, lunatcs, felons and women. There
are good and obvious reasons for ell these
exceptions but the last. 1t is evident that
the opinions of children ought not to be
counted, nor those of idiots, lunatics and
criminals. Is there any equally good rea-
son why, in reckoning up the opinions of
the community, no account should be
taken of the opinions of women? If not
they ought to be allowed to vote.

RHODE ISLAND was the last state to
adopt a prohibition amendment to its
constitution. This was in 1886, and the
majority in favor of the amendment was
1888. Ia 1887 four states rejected such
MISUNDERSTANDING by majority OF
5,645, Oregon by 1885, Tennessee by 81.
6s3 and Texas by 9l,357. West Virginia
in 1888 voted upon the question and the
amendment was lost by an estimated ma
iority of $4,000. During the present year
New Hampshire voted against amending
the constitution by majority of 5,5O3
Massachusetts, by over 10000 and Penn
sylvania by areported majority of lS9,6SS
Finally Rhode Island closes the record
repe ealing the amendment formerly
adopted by vote of 5,469. These nine
states show preference for license, over
prohibition, as a practical means OF
