In Ohio the Democrats are trying to
bag the eolored vote, and are industri-
Gus in trying to convince the Negroes
that the Democrats are their best friends.
The trouble IS, the two sections of the
Democracy don't flap together. On Satur
day the dispatches reported race war at
Dexter, No, where white man had in
censed the Democratic thugs in the
neighborhood by employing a dozen ne
groes to work on his farm, and five hun
dred of the thugs formed themselves in
to band of regulators and swore that
no "niggers" should be permitted to
earn livelihood in that county. Sun
day dispatches reported that crowd of
Democrats in Paulding, Miss, had
burned Negro church and a Negre
school house, which had been erected at
a great sacrifice by the colored people.
Thus do the Democrats show their
friendship when they have fair oppor-
tunity.

Seems Like a crown upon my Hfe-to make
It better worth the giving, and TO raise
Still nearer to your own the heart you take
love all good and noble souls; heard
One speak OF you but lately. and for days,
Only to think Of Il, my soul was stirred
In tender memory Of such generous praise.

Comfort to you; and ! can find regret
Even for those poorer hearts who once could
know
And once could love you, and can now forget.

Dearest, remember that love you more,
Oh, more a thousand times than oil the rest!

I.sia's Upper Glass Society.

Every person belonging to the European
races, Al Englishman, especially, we'll knows
how much common meals tend to social SYM
pathy; how powerful a factor they are in
promoting pleasurable family existence, and
in educating the young to good manners.
There is nothing Of this sort in Indian upper
class society. There the men and women
diue strictly apart, the women greatly ON the
leavings Of tho men, and that, too, in messes
of degree very like those in . royal naval ship
Patsrfsmilias dimes by himself, then the
other men together in groups, according to
standing, waited on by the women under
Fixed rules; and lastly the women, when the
men have done, our poor young bride com.
ing last Of all, obliged often to be content
with the toughest Of the fare.
No imported woman may have any rela-
lions with those males who are her seniors
Every bride is such an imported woman, and
all the household which she enters, who are
the seniors of her husband, arc her seniors
This at first generally includes nearly the
whole family, and must necessarily for @
long while include the major part of it. In
ell her life she never speaks to her husbands
father, uncles, or older brothers, though
dwelling under the same roof, or, to speak
more correctly, within the same Enclosure,
for an Indian house is what We should call O
courtyard surrounded by sets Of apartments.
On the other hand, paterfainilias has not
only never been spoken to, but technically
never oven seen, by any Of the younger wo-
men OF his varied household, except those
born within it, though they all dwell under
his protection and at bis expense. Capt

Bridal Veil and Flowers.

The bridal veil is of eastern origin, and
among the Anglo-Saxons it was held over
the heads of both bride and groom. The
orange blossom is the emblem of purity and
truth, although in some portions of France
the bride is crowned with myrtle wreath,
which is transferred to her hand when she
is blindfolded, and the trademarks dance
about her whilo she seeks to place the wreath
on one of their heads. The one so crowned,
it is said, will herself be bride within the
following year. An cid superstition prevails
to the effect that all pins used In fastening
tbs bridal veil and flowers must be thrown
away or i'll fortune will come to the bride
How many must have neglected to do this

His Name Was Hill.

It is not often that Henry N. Wiley, the
polite and affnble clerk at the Grand Pacific
is nonplussed by any gag or trick perpe-
trated by the would be funny guests that
quarter themselves at this popular hotel, but
one evening last week he was compelled to
own up beaten. A serious looking individual,
one who, 1t would seem, did not even know
the nature Of . joke, came in with sachel
and umbrella, and, taking the pen the ever
ready Wiley always hands with a bow and
a smile that twists his blonde mustache into
acrobatic contortions, he made nine perpen-
dicular dashes on the register. 1t may be
said right here that Mr.. Wiley has the repu-
tation of knowing everybody, but it is only
his cunning that has earned it for him. He
always watches = man registering, and has
accustomed himself to reading letters upside
down, so that when he catches the first few
letters of mans name he guesses at the rest,
and when the guest has finished writing and
looks up Mr.. Wiley at once calls him by his
name, though he appears to be looking at
anything else than the book. In this way it
makes no difference il a man comes there for
the first time in his life, Mr.. Wiley will sur
prise him by putting out his hand and calling
the proper name.
On tho occasion in question, however, Mr.
Wiley was done up; he had never seen the
man before and he could not make anything
out of tho straight lines. With his pet
flourish he swung the register around and
said What price room do you want Mr.,
Mr. By the way, what do those lines
mean, anyway Night 1 ask your namel
"Oh, excuse me-" said the stranger. "Ineg
lected to finish my signature" and, taking
up a pen. made horizontal dash at abous
the middle and in between the first three pair
of uprights, when the signature read, III
H. Hill" Mr.. Wiley owned that for once
that he was beaten.-Chica<o Herald.

Utilizing tho African Elephant.

In Petermann's Mitteilungen Herr J.
Menges raises once moro the question Of the
possibility of utilizing the African elephant
Herr Menges points out that there is strong
evidence that the elephant was used in an
Gent times in Africa, and asserts that no
serious attempt has been made in modern
times to subduc it to the uses Of humanity.
He maintains that it is quite as docile as the
Indian elephant and much stronger, and that
if it could be really tanned and trained to
work it would be of immense utility in the
opening of Africa.-Boston Transcript.

Some recent comparative analyses, made
at Dundee, Scotland Of the air of sewers and
that Of the close rooms of some of the we'll
inhabited houses of the city, turned out to
the advantage of the sewers. That is, the
analysts found in small and i'll ventil..~d
houses more carbonic acid, more!orgsnic mat
ter, aud far more heterogeneous than In
the sewer air they examined; so that, if the
experiments were to be taken as final and
conclusive, the inhabitants of a small room
would improve their position by living in the
atmosphere Of sewerI The experiments
are, Of course, not to be thus taken; but it is
easy toconceive of cases In which the infer
ence would be correct. The lesson to be
drawn from it would be, not that sewer air
is less dangerous than it is thought to be, but
ali admonition Of the necessity for improving
thesanitary condition Of some houses.-Popu-
