but actually refrigerated. Such, at
least, had been his experience. On
the other hand, observation and ex-
perience had convinced him that
where the white race was largely in
the majority the white man was
better off and the negro was better
of, so that no friend of the negroes
wouli oppose the bill because II
would be hurtful to the negro. He
believed, IL the government would
do its duty by the negro, instead Of
coaching him and confusing him
with civil rights and empty statutes;
if it would render him substantial
assistance in his struggle for re-
generation and real freedom, he

the Southern States, he said, If the
South could be thus relieved Of q

decade would pale into insiguifi

Mr.. Hoar replied to Butler. II
seemed TO him that this proposition
was the most astonishing that had
ever been heard in the legislative
history of the Senate or the legisla-
tive history Of any free, civilized
and prosperous people. From all
climes under the sun laborers were
thrOnging, all one way, in their
eager desire TO share the harvest of
national prosperity and national
glory. and yet in the Senate of the
United States the proposition was
made that by the force of the nation,
aided by its Treasury, eight millions
Of labOrers, born on American soil,
every one Of them entitled to every
right, were to be deported to what
the senator had justly styled dark
region of the ''dark continent" and
which, in spite OF the recent explor-
ations of their illustrious citizens,
was less known to readers Of history
today than it was when their his
tory attempted a description Of II
800 years before the birth of Christ,
Blair spoke against the bill. He
thought that il, instead OF exporting
eight OF ten million colored people,
tkere were 10, 900 white people

ENPORTED TO AFRICA

and kept there the whole difficulty
would be settled. The difficulties Of
the race problem existed in the ex-
cited imaginations and incurable
prejudices of few white men, not
between the races themselves. As
to the idea Of the senator from Ala
hama (Morganl, that the choice was
between numbering the negroes oil
marrying them, between killing
them and assimilating them, he
thought that course Of lectures on
the sixth and seventh command
ments would settle the whole thing,
and that 10 more would be heard OF
a doctrine that was an absurdity
and an insult to our common hui
mainly.
The bill went over without ac-
ton.

THE AFRICAN RACE

In this country was TO be seen the
hand OF God for the accomplish
ment Of a great purpose in another
hemisphere. Events appeared 10 be
shaping themselves in a manner
to Justify such conclusions. The
race question raised by the changed
attitude of the two races toward
each other was burning evidence
that the issue was not confined 10
any locality, section or party. What
was TO become of the 100000 In
dams in this country and Of
the 100000 Cinnamon was a diff
cult problem, but the most profound
inquiry applied directly to the pend
ing bill, and that was, what was to
be the fate of the six or eight
millions Of negroes of this country?
They were citizens; they had the
ballot; they had all the civil and
political rights which white men
had, and which were denied to the
colored races. Butler referred to

An EYE on BUSINESS.

Mr.. Frank Jacobs, who lives on Law
renee near Oak Street, has been quite sick
for sometime, with pneumonia, and yes
terday morning kept insisting that he
must leave on the St. Louis train over the
Missouri Pacific, at ? p. m, to attend to a
horse ranch in Indiana. 1t was quite ap-
parent TO his wife that he was unconscious
at times and she kept a close watch over
him. About l o'clock he prevailed on his
daughter, 10 years old, to go to a neighbor-
ing telephone and order hack to take him
TO the train. The hack arrived and he
dressed himself and left for the depot.
Mrs. Jacobs explained the conditions to
the hack driver, who seemed to want a
passenger, someway, and would not listen
TO Mrs Jacobs requests. Jacobs leaving,
the wife telephoned the police, and Officers
Dunbar and Snyder reached the depot just
before the train left. Jacobs had pur-
chased ticket and was in the chair car
He objected TO being taken out, saying it
was a shame to keep a man away from his
BUSINESS, but offered no resistance. He was
taken back home

at go, 367, 799 francs, and in 1887 p, PSI, $50
tons, of 226, 80, O29 francs value. In 1883
2,G03, 600 tons were raised. Comparing the
years 1873 and 1887, it appears that iron ore
declined from 3,051, 124 tons in the former
year to 2,579, 465 tons in the latter period;
iron pyrites advanced from 161, $50 tons to

AIatrimony Measured.

In 1888 - per cent. of all the men mar
ried in Pennsylvania married women older
than themselves. Eighty per cent. married
them younger than themselves, and the re-
naming per cent. took wives their own
ages. The average age of the men was "a
years, and of the women % years. More
men are married at %, and more women at
81. This seems the favorite time. A wom-
an of 80 married man of 81. and n girl Of
% took an old man of "A. The youngest
couple who ventured into matrimony was
boy Of II and girl of Is.
One man Of "a married girl Of IS His
age was Just three times hers; and a man
of As took girl of II. Where the men are
older, the difference in ages varies, but
where the women are older, it rarely ex-
ceeds five years. Two boys of 16 were mar
ried, and two Graybeards of so tried tho
same thing, probably not for the first time.
OF IA, 726 women married, whose ages were
given, 4,065, or 27.5 per cent, were less than
20 wears old.-New York Ledger.

Some Beliefs OF the Armeninns.

The fact is that the Armenians are the
oldest of the Christian people of today.
They even claim that they have the hottest
lands of the Bible. These are in Asia
Minor, south of the Black sea, and between
it and Persia. Mount Ararat, upon the
top of which Noah got out of the ark, is in
that part Of their country, and they can
show you, as they claim, the very place
where the Garden of Eden was. 1t is bar
rem spot now, and some of the rivers have
dried up.
Mount Ararat is made up Of volcanic
rocks, and a ravine in il is pointed out as
the site of Noah's vineyard There is a
monastery near this, and the monks have
a withered old vine which they say is the
one which produced the grapes that made
the wine that old Noah drank. He cursed
it, and it has borne no grapes to this day.
The Armenians believe that the wise men
of the east who travelled 10 Bethlehem to
see the young Christ were Armenians, and
they saw the star first. They have many
curious religious uperstitions.-Frank G..
Carpenter in National Tribune.

THE GOULD LECTURE.

1t is subject of great comment that
this is only Mr.. Gould's third season on
the platform. but no man today more
nearly approaches the talented and elo-
quent John b. Cough.
Mr.. Ora j. Gould was born in southern
Illinois, and after leaving school went
west and became travelling man, and has
been almost constantly on the road for ten
years. He is fascinating in descriptive
work, thrilling in narrative, ennobling in
thought and powerful in oratory
lie holds audiences in breathless atten-
ton. throwing them into tears and con-
WILSON'S of laughter alternately. He tells
only of his actual experiences, and today,
although young man, is a marvel and
stands unrivaled on the American plat
form.
