LoNACoNING, July %, 1890.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
The following extract from William
H. Perkins letter in reference 10 the
census will, perhaps, throw some light
on the lost tribes of Frostburg and at
the same time very much increase the
population of Homecoming, placing the
latter unquestionably among the first
six cities of Maryland. The extract
referred to is as follows:
Population of Homecoming. ...........4, 595
- Iekln.... ............... 900
" Ocean .................... 80
The total population reported by the
three enumerators in districts 10 and -
is 5,7S6. Taking from this SOP, the
number reported TO, the country, auG
there remains o,2S4, 10 more than is
accredited to the towns mentioned
above. For this discrepancy cannot
at the present account, etc.
Now, since Ocean is much nearer to
Fr0stburg than it is to Homecoming
and may be regarded as practically Il
suburb of your city, close under the
ewes of the JOURNAL office, so to speak,
we are quite willing that the popula-
ton of Ocean, together with that OF
Midland Gf, indeed, it can be found AZ
alb shall be transferred from districts
10 and Is, and be made to augment
the really too diminutive figures of the
city on the hill. And especially are
we willing to do this, as it is likely to
add the same number to Homecoming
also.
A little inspection OF the extract
quoted above will show there Is IL dis
crepancy of 1916 instead of Is. Every
body, too, who is acquainted with the
two districts knows that the number Of
people living outside Of Pekln and
Homecoming cannot possibly exceed 100
persons. This, of course, will add an
other hundred to the 1916 referred to
above. The allimportant question
now is-where do these 496 people
live? Undoubtedly they live in the
second city of Allegany county. Now
add 496 to the number already accred-
tied to Homecoming and we have u
population of Il little more than 5000,
all receiving their mail through the
hands of our polite and accomplished
postmaster, David Dixon.
The only plausible reason we can
give, permit me to remark en- poSsa7t
as to why Frostburg handles more
mail than we do, is that there are
more disappointed ot1ice-seekers there.

THE CARS POWER.
1T Is Limited to a Great Extent by -Four
Important Conditions.

1t Is Limited to a Great Extent by -Four
Important Conditions.
But the Cars power is absolute onlv
in the sense that wherever and however
his personal will reaches and exerts
itself, it receives obedience 1t is hu-
manly impossible, even were the Car
man of the most comprehensive political
genius, that he should be able to cover
with his vision, and direct by his per-
sonsl motion, the administration of an
empire so huge and so unwieldy,
comprising so wide a variety of
races, and presenting such an infinite
complexity of demands upon the ruling
power In the first place, the Cars
power is limited by four conditions:
First that the crown shall descend by
right of primogeniture; second, that the
heir to the throne shall be declared Of
age when he has completed his six
teenth year; third, that the Gar, his
wife and his children shall be members
of the orthodox Greek church; fourth
that the issue of any member of the i'm
perial family who marries without the
consent of the Car shall be excluded
from the right of succession to
the throne. 1t is true that
one Gar can undo what a previ-
GUS Gar has done. But so imbedded
are those conditions in imperial custom,
and so vital is the necessity OF sustain
ing the exalted idea of the crown in
the eyes Of his subjects, that the Gar
scrupulously pays pious heed to these
DEGREES of his predecessors. The Cars
power is further limited by the neces-
Eity to which his human fallibility SUBJ
iects him, to call in to his aid other in
tellects, and thus the Gar is compelled,
IN reality, to yield up, divide and wide
ly distribut' that prerogative which, in
theory, is his sole prerogative. Boston

Exact COpYiRtA.

The Chinese are essentially initiative.
If they once learn to do piece of work,
they are sure to perform it again in ex-
actly the same manner, even if that
manner could be vastly improved. A
teacher in Chinese Sunday school owns
to being equally amused and provoked
at the patient exactitude with which her
grown up "boys" follow her instructions.
One day, when faithful but back
ward pupil had some difficulty in read
ing the sentence. HE laughed aloud, :"
she said, somewhat impatiently, point
ing to the verb, Now listen to me
laughed"
Once more the docile scholar attempted
the difficult task of pronunciation, and
this time he read, with ill concealed
pride in his success, He now listen to
me laughed aloud"
On another occasion the same pupil
came to a word which he could not pro-
nounce, and as the teacher was busy at
the moment, she said: Spell it,"
He was so slow in doing it, however,
that she looked over his shoulder, and
said, encouragingly, ''Man."
That was enough for the initiative
Chinaman, and he slowly read aloud the
whole phrase, "a great and spell it man"

Crime Is Scientific.

There is one thing which business men
may as well understand. AS fast as sci
ence invents appliances for the safety
of money or valuables, just as fast does
crime invent schemes to circumvent.
Crime is more of science today than it
ever was. You may remember the bur-
glar proof safe that was put in at Salem,
Ills. 1t was the latest. The inventors
not only claimed for it that it could not
be opened in the usual way, but they
claimed that it was so constructed as to
Withstand any explosive which might be
piled up about it and touched off. This
claim seemed to invite test by the scien-
tific craftsman, for one morning pieces
of this safe were found all around the
building. 1t had been blown into atoms

therefor, as the following adventure will
show: Near the close of a hot August
day | was driving through the village of

cloud appeared in the sky, and when my
played out horse had covered half mile
the rain came dancing down. had two

myself and machines from getting

the young lady who responded to my
knock was one with whom, much against
her will, had left a machine on trial
month or two before, and had only taken
it back after repeated protestations on
her part that she did not want it. You
understand, we used to get machine
into house by representing that we
would leave it on trial.
''But once we got into the house we in
sisted on its being bought, and used every
persuasive art to accomplish that result.
Frequently this was very embarrassing
to the lady of the house, and she never
forgave us for the annoyance of leaving
the machine for weeks and asking her
every other day if she wouldn't buy,
when she had emphatically declared she
would not. Now was the turn of the
young lady in the old fashioned house
to get square. And although the rain
had nearly washed the machines out of

face and then sat by the window enjoy

child's nerves receive a shock every
time it is reused from sleep, which is
most injurious to it. Admiring friends
should be made to wait until it is
awake to kiss and play with it. After
it is nursed at night put it back in its

REMARKABLE CAREER.
An Arab Founding Now a Colonel In thu
French Army.

An Arab Founding Now "A Colonel In the
French Army.
The public has been reading lately q
great many dispa tches from France and
Africa giving the yrogress of the war
which the French Government has been
waging in Dahomey. Lieutenant
Colonel Archinard was the officer men
toned as being in command of the
French troops, who, although merely a
handful of some 400 or 500 cavalry, have
inflicted great slaughter on their oppo-
nents, killing as many as 1000 in
single engagement.
There recently arrived in this city
young French officer who is an intimate
friend of Colonel Archinard and who
relates the following strange history of
the dashing young Colonel's life:
about twenty-six years ago, at the
time France was engaged in a series of
petty wars against the nomad tribes in
Algeria, and after one of these engage
ments, certain CASTOR Archinard,
then Captain in a cavalry regiment,
was attending to the removal of the
wounded, when one of his men discov-
cred little Arab child who had evil
IDENTIFY been abandoned by its parents
in their fight Being a bachelor, and,
liking the bright intelligent look in
the little fellows face, the Captain de-
termined to adopt him and give him
his name. He therefore sent him to
lycee or French school in Bordeaux,
where the lad was educated, and later
In 1875, the Captain having risen to the
rank of rigadier-General, he caused
him to be enlisted as pri-
vate in the Seventh Hussars, I'M
der his own name of Archinard.
Gaining rapid promotion he was soon
sent to the cavalry school at Saumar
from whence he graduated in 1880, only
ten years ago, as a sub-Lieutenant of
cavalry. He was then sent to Tunis
and fought through the campaign of
1882, and the following year saw him
commanding a battalion in Tonquin.
In 1887 he was sent to Senegal as a
Major in the famous regiment of Spahis
Eenegalais, which he commanded as
Lieutenant-C Colonel in his late success
full campaign in Dahomey. Although
pure blooded Arab, with a thorough
French military education, Colonel
Archinard. it is whispered in promi-
pent Partisan military circles, is next
on the list for promotion to the coveted
rank of General of 9 division of the
French army.-San Francisco Exami-

But to our tale. Minerva Eryde
Was of our college halls the pride
She thought in Greek.
In Sanscrit she could write play,
The calculus she solved all day
Ere she could speak.
The dons of Cambridge owned that she
Could wax 'em on philosopher;
And as for science,
Old fossils who could bones compare.
But who had lost in thought their hair.
Sought an alliance.

One day was capped MaSte- Of Ar.A
She knew them all
Logic, divinity and law,

Now many suitors sought TO win
Minerva with their vapid chin
And polished check.
She bowed not on the Appian Way
To any man who could not say
''Ice cream" in Greek
For she was lovelier than ne dawn.
And 1.-the of figure as a fawn.
Out of his mind
One fellow wrote song;
His quantities, poor wretch, were wrong
She cut him blind.
But, an! lovely youth there came,
A very Paris, and his game
Was, with ball,
Played by the Greeks in Athens when
The gods were young. OF all the men
He had the call
A champion he, whose mighty bat
Had laid full many Hoosier flat.
His aim was true
When at a rival head, Rudolph,
With eye unerring, as in golf,
The baseball threw.
One eve he came. Torn were his clothes,
And on patch he wore his nose,
Arm in a sling.
Minerva, cried the youth, with glee,
"We've busted 'em. Hoorahrr and she
Said 'Ting-a-ling."
She was the belle. All, it was sweet.

And crowned him then.
