dealer in jeWelry, because their
marketable value is relatively small at
all times, and Is still further Influenced
by the DEGREES Of fashion. For some
years past we have had but few calls for
moonstones, but about twelve months
ago they were restored to popular favor,
ana Will probably continue to be much
used for some time to come. The stones
come from India, are easily procured,
and there Is but little waste In cutting

The moonstone is seldom worn alone
oy fashionable people, having USUALLY
an accompanying setting of diamonds or
other precious stones. In response to a
question the dealer added: "Tbe

But the problem Of Arab dominion IL
not on the coast st all, hut In the in
terror Of Africa On the coast the Eu-
ropean States can make their influence
felt, but It extends no further than
narrow strip Of Laid, beyond which bar
barism reigns supreme. And here we
arrive at one Of the most remarkable
phenomena OF the age In which we live
nnd the planet We inhabit. The abo-
rigtnal Inhabitants Of Central Africa are
savages, sunk in heathenism, afflicted
by the evils and the weaknesses Of
savage life, and perhaps inferior in
mental and physical vigor to the strong
er races Of mankind. Over them has
passed, like a tempest from the east, q
horde OF men OF another and a stronger
race, which marks them out for slavery
and destruction. The Arab invasion of
Africa is characterized In every part
to which Europeans have penetrated by
desperate valor in arms, by an utter in
difference TO human life, and, above all,
by an enthusiastic and fanatical belief
In the faith OF Islam. They remind
us Of those ardent followers of the
prophet who, in the first ages
of Mohammedanisn, bore his blood
stained standard and his intolerant
creed from Spain to the confines
OF China, and well-nigh overthrow the
faith and civilization Of the ancient
world. Indeed, II we are not
mistaken, they are the same men
the living inheritors Of the pas
sions, the valor and the faith of
the soldiers of Mohammed Before the
strength Of the Christian States they are
now compelled reluctantly to bow; but
over the unarmed and untutored native
races Of Africa they are supreme. Ac-
cordingly, what we are now witnessing
in Africa, since it has been partially
opened to our view, Is an amazing rec
rudescence and fermentation of Mo-
hammedan power. On the Congo 1t is
not the native population, but the blood
thirsty Arab slave dealers, who oppose
the progress of civilization; the natives
ask for protection from these formidable
tyrants. On the Nile the fierce chiefs
OF this new warfare have made Khar-
tourn seat OF power. and authority over
the neighboring tribes. for since the
overthrow Of the Egyptian government
In the south they are masters of the
Soudan. The capture Of that important
position. and the defeat and death of the
heroic champion Of civilization who per-
1shed there, were much greater events
than they even seemed to be at the time

GOTHAM'S CORRUPTION.

The Moral Needs Of New York City Calls
for More than Mere Politicians for Its
Governments.
NEW York, Sept 23N-The call of the
Municipal Reform party for meeting
of clergymen to consider\the local situa-
ton was responded to by large num-
Der of clericals, who yesterday after
noon met in Hardman's Hail.
Father Ducey, of st. Leos (Catholic)
Church, called the meeting to order,
and in his Introductory remarks de-
nounced the government of this city as
disgrace and reproach to its pastors.
When Father Ducey had concluded
his remarks, Rev. Mr.. McChesney was
introduced as the chairman, and on
taking charge of the meeting said:
Courageous, honest and capable men
were need more than Democrats, Re
publicans or Prohibitionists No poll
tical party had monopoly Of good men.
Dr. Howard Crosby, who followed
Chairman McChesney, enlivened the
NEE ting with characteristic address
in which he humorously depicted the
monstrous corruption of New York
Municipal government
A heated and somewhat acrimonious
discussion followed Finally, however,
the coil was untangled by the passage
of a resolution inviting the eco-operation

THE WRECK RECORD.

nailroad Collisions Multiplying with
Alarming Rapidity-A Big Smash on the
wabash Within the St. Louis City Linn
ts-One Man Killed and Several In
Jured and a General Wreck Occasioned
py the Failure of a Tcle graph Operator
to Signal Properly.
ST LOUIS, Sept %. A frightful rear
end collision occurred few minutes
after seven o'clock last evening at For
sythe junction, just within the city
limits, on the Wabash & Pacific rail-
road. by which one man was killed. one
s9riousiy. and several slightly bnrt,
and that a score of others were not
killed was the marvel of all who saw
and noted the nature of the wreck.
The Creve Ceur accommodation on
the''Colorado" road had just switched on
to the Wabash track, and stopped to
take up the switchman, when heavy
passenger train on the Wabash came
around the curve at a speed of
twenty-five miles an hour and struck the
accommodation train with tremendous
force, telescoping the rear car and
driving the first car upon and half way
over the truck of the tender, which in
turn crushed the engineers cab like an
egg she'll, and jammed up against the
boiler of the engine. The engineer
and fireman, father and son, saved
themselves by jumping.
The engine on the Wabash train was
completely dismantled, and the engi-
neer, who remained at his post and tried
to save his train, was caught between
the tender and engine and almost in
stantly killed. The fireman saved him
self, with slight bruises, by jumping.
The cars of this train were also more or
less damaged.
The cause of the accident, it seems,
was the failure Of the telegraph opera
tor to ''pull the board" on the Wabash
after giving the right of way to the
Colorado train, only displaying the red
light after the on-coming train was
within few yards of the switch, when
it was impossible to even perceptibly
check its speed.
