One point made by Judge Fenn er
in his paper on the negro question
is that the Republicans care for the
negro vote in the south only for the
purpose of gaining additional Re-
publican congressman. Suppose a
federal election law should secure
this, what then would the negro
have gained locally? 1t is the state
government that deals out to him
veal or woe, says the judge.

How the Prince Died.

have recently had a very interest
ing interview with an English gentle
man who was present in Zululand at
the time of the death of the prince i'm
perial, and who knew the young gen.
tleman well, besides being personally
acquainted with all the details of the
catastrophe, says writer in the Phila-
delphia Telegram. He was not much
impressed by the character and man.
ners of the ill-fated prince himself,
describing him to me as very full
fedged specimen of the most obnox-
ious type of fast young Partisan So
ciety man. Besides which, he was i'm
pressed with an overwhelming idea of
his own Importance. and insisted
always on taking the command of
every expedition in which he was in
cluded.
The fatal FRAY in which the unfortun-
ate youth lost his life owed its whole
success for the Zulus to the fact of the
princes party being taken by surprise.
Everybody ran away on the sudden
attack of the savages, and it was owing
to broken girth that the prince failed
to make his escape with the others.
There were only five Zulus concerned
in the attack, and they all belonged to
one family-a father, his three sons
and a son-in-law. They stripped the
body of their victim, leaving nothing
behind but a gold locket suspended
around his neck, and which the Zulus
thought contained charm.
My informant told me that, for him,
the most trying part of the whole busi-
ness was the interview which the
Empress Eugene insisted upon having
with him after he returned to England.
She asked the most minute questions
about the princes death, being espe-
cially anxious to know if the fatal
wounds were not dealt him in front.
But unfortunately, they were all in
his back. Then she wanted to be told
that he had died fighting for England,
and the Englishman was compelled to
assure her that such was not the case.
"But at least, Mr.. X, you can say it
was" was the unhappy mothers sug-
! gestion. 1t did not occur to her, poor
lady, that an English gentleman has a
natural objection to telling lies on any
subject whatever.

How to Play With Fire.

With the lengthening evenings of
autumn there arises demand for novel
indoor amusements. An English paper
tells how such can be obtained, on
strictly scientific principles in describ-
ing an entertainment at which the
writer was present.
The lecturer held up sheet of paper
which he touched with the still glowing
wick of the candle. Instantly the
paper began to smolder, and it
line until it had written God save the
queen" which was the very last thing
we expected it would do.
Then other sheets of paper were
taken and on some patterns were burnt
out; on others animals were drawn.
On the last there appeared a very fair
sketch in stencil of the room in which
the lecture was given. This was mys-
terious. The papers were handed
round for examination, and though
some were held up to the light no
pattern could be found on them.
1T is easy enough to prepare such
papers," said the lecturer. Take some
saltpeter, a common salt known some
times as nitrate of potash, sometimes
as potassic nitrate-all meaning the
same thing-and dissolve in water till
the water will take up no more. In
fact, make what is known as saturat-
ed solution of it. Then with wooden
point-such as a match-end or slip OF
shaving-use this solution as an ink
and draw the pattern on such unsized
paper as you see. Any paper will do
but tie unsized paper will not show the
mark when the liquid dries, which it
very soon will do. But if there is nc
mark how are you to know where tc
start from? Make pencil mark at the
spot. When you are ready apply tc
the mark glowing stick like this. Yor
will see the burning spread right anc
left until the ends meet. and you viii
have result like that"

How dear to this heart is the old yellow pump
kin,
When orchards are barren of stufing for

How fondly we turn to the fruit of the corn
field

pumpkin,
The big-bellied pumpkin that makes such
good pies!

We ask your forgiveness for thus having
wronged you,
When from your dear presence we scornfuL

eyes.
We love you. old pumpkin. SO well we could
eat you,
For you are dandy when made into pies
