Miss SUSAN B. ANTHONY celebrated
her SEVENTEEN birthday in Washing!
ton City the other day with party
of her female friends. These was
big banquet with a brass band ac-
compartment, and judging from
some of the silly things reported
wine must have flowed freely. After
the band had played ':Auid Lang
Syne," Susan made brilliant speech
to her friends,in which she contrasted
her present happy life as spinster
with what it might have been had
Just one certain little slip of the
tongue occurred. The giddy thing;
1t is suggested that she may yet be
induced to make that slip. Older
women than she have been induced

A WEEKLY paper for some purpose
or other, which is concealed, seeks
to revive an old complaint against
DR.. Dorset, one of the best superin-

The Houston Herald reports a
novel and interesting case from
Ohio. A newspaper in that state
recently instituted suit against for
ty-three men who would not pay
their subscriptions, and obtained
judgment for the full amount i'll
each case. Twenty eight of them at
once prevented attachment by max
ing affidavit that they owned no
more than allowed by law. Under
the decision of the supreme court
they were arrested for petty larceny,
and bound over in the sum of $500
each. Six failed to give bond and
went to jail. This is said to be the
result of the new postal law, which
makes it larceny to take paper and
refuse to pay for it.

PosT-DIspATCH: If all the stories
we hear about the treatment of ne
groes in Mississippi, Louisiana, Ar
kansas and Texas are true, why is it
that when negroes emigrate from
other sections they go to the very
states in which they are told they
will be murdered, robbed or disfran-
chised? Why do they not go to
some republican state in which they
will be assured better wages and the
full enjoyment of equal civil and po-
litical rights? Why do negroes
swarm on the Kentucky bank of the
Ohio river when they can in few
minutes place themselves under the
agis of republican protection in Ill
lnois, Indiana or Ohio or the other
side of the river?

MEssRs. FRANK KIEFER and R. G..
Crane, both Washington county
young men, have disposed of their
paper, the Fisher County Call, and
will give their. attention to their law
and land business. The paper was
founded by Dir. Crane about two or
three years ago, when the popula-
ton of the county was not more
than one thousand, and they now
claim four thousand for it.
The special correspondent of the
Galveston News over in Lisbon,
Portugal, say that the government
has offered Major Serpa Pinto a
diplomatic post (it is believed at
Washington on condition that he
refrain from going to Lisbon, where
his presence is believed to be fraught
with danger, not only to the minis
try, but to the dynasty itself.
The BANNER congratulates the
democracy of Washington county on
the acceptance by Nh. Heber Stone
of the appointment of chairman Of
the county executive committee. 1t
is a good sign to see such men as
Mr.. Stone taking an interest il local
politics, for there isn't a man or tax
payer in the county who is or ought
to be more interested il good local
government than he.

Speaker Reeds Selection of tho
Worlds Fair Committee
Meets With Approval From the Rep
resentatives Of the Compet-
ing Cities.

The Question OF Location VIII be Consid-
/. cred After the Amount to be Approprl-
ated Has Been Determined.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.--The Commit
tee on Worlds Fair appointed by the
Speaker yesterday will get to work as
soon as possible. The interests OF. the
four cities competing for the location OF
the fair are supposed to be thoroughly
represented on the committee. The
representatives Of each city were asked
to name two members of the committee,
and the Speaker named the chairman.
The West did not want the appointment
Of Mr. Candler, who is supposed to be In
favor Of an eastern location for the fair,
but there is no serious objection to the
appointment now that 1t has been made
A proposition will be laid before the
committee at its first meeting that q
scheme for the organization Of the fair
be agreed upon and the time for holding
the fair be fixed before the question oi
locating the site is taken up.
The fear is expressed that II the site
for the fair is chosen before the appro'
priation or loan has been agreed upon
the friends OF the disappointed cities
will put obstacles in the way OF the pas
sage of the bill establishing the fair. L
Is altogether likely, therefore, that th'
question Of location will be taken vi
last.
1t is a common belief, growing ever,
day, that the fair will not be held Il
1892, and a great many people are In
clined to favor 1895 as desirable date

The smallest draft ever issued by the
Treasury Department will be drawn In

Mass correspondent. 1t is for the

innate $4,000. At the last session of
Congress the Representative from Low

appropriating 100000 for the erection
OF public building here and the pur-
chase OF the site. Half dozen differ

have the Government buy their prop

The contest between the two waged
warm for time until at last the Butler
people executed master move and
offered the property TO the Government
