Hotel Helena.
On April 25th the Broad water Hotel
Was opened with crew of walters from
st. Paul, Mr.. John Washington, late of
Great Falls, being head waiter. The
walters were brought here under a con-
tract # $50 per month, which is less than
Cinnamon get. Last Wednesday the
manager informed Mr.. Washington that
he could take place on the side as he
had white man to take his place. OF
course Washington refused to do this
and he is therefor in the "consomme.'
1t is an outrage for the Broad water to 20
East and deceive men with promises of
high wages and then when they get
them here expect them to work for less
than others get here. Hotel Helena
pays from $40 to $45, per month and the
Grand Central as high as $50. The
guests at the hotel are very much dis
satisfied with the present management
of the Broadwater.

thing as color line except in the mind of
those who intellects were clouded by
unjust reasoning. The solution Of the
question was that they should look one,
another in the face as members Of the
same family, children of the same God
and all living under the same teachings
og religion and virtue. Because Of the
accident Of color, it did not follow that
they should be treated on different
lines religeously and socially.
They were all of the same ancestry,
alike in the possession Of souls and be-
ing Cons children, and it was entirely
matter OF accident whether they were
white, black or red. It was wrong to
neglect attention to substance and di-
rect it only to the accident, and of all
accidents in life the one of color. He
felt ashamed that prejudice Of the kind
should exist, especially in the United
states. G. A. ].

and to execute the duties it imposes"
The Attorney General writes thus to the
United States Marshal in Jacksonville:
For several months past it has been re-
ported that in certain counties in your
district warrants Of ARREST issued by
United States courts have not been exc
cuted because of resistance, actual and
threatened, by those sought to be ar
rested and their partlsans. This state
of things cannot and will not be longer
tolerated" The Supreme Court of the
United States in the Nag]e case justified
Maggie in killing tue bully Terry. and the
decision places the President iii such an
attitude, that no excuse now exists il
ever there was one, for his failing to en-
force the law. Resistance to the power
of the United States courts, under any
pretext, is treason and rebellion anc
calls for no leniency whatever. The
most summary and decisive measured
are the most merciful.

The Deadly Cold Bed.

IF trustworthy statistics could be bad
OF the number Of persons who die every
year or become permanently diseased
from sleeping in damp OF cold beds they
would probably be astonishing and APP
palling," says Good Housekeeping
The peril resides in the house and the
cold spare room has slain its thousands
OF hapless guests. and will 60 on with it's
slaughter till people learn WISDOM
Mark Twain said statistics showed that
more people, ten TO one, died in bed at
home, than were killed in railroad ac-
cidents, and it was therefore safer to
travel than to stay at home. There is
no doubt much truth in the above about
cold beds, and one way to avoid it is to
travel good deal, always taking the

furnished vestibuled Pullman Sleepers

said; There is mistaken notion that
the African in Africa is barbarian. It
is true that some of them are, but the
majority are far from being 80. Africa
contains 40 100000 Negro inhabitants

Arabic descent. One of the finest ma

numbers about 80, 900 souls These peo-
pie are all Mohometans, and write their

speaking, reading and writing arabic.
They make their own guns and gun
power, and as fine leather work as ever

and each man is entitled to four wives.
Their ostumes are similar to the Turks.
They have many large cities, but will

One of the most outrageous travesties
on justice which has lately come to our
notice occurred in Laurel, Del. last
week. Two of DR.. William S. Hitches'
blooded horses were taken from the
stable last Tuesday night and badly
abused A Colored man was caught
near the premises, and Wednesday
morning was tried and found guilty.
The presiding Justice (?) gave the doc
tor permission to whip him, and large
crowd proceeded to the Jail, where they
stripped the culprit and tied him to q
wagon-wheel. The owner of the horses
then proceeded to administer the lash,
giving the man sixty-nine ticks and
wearing out his whip. The fogging
caused considerable excitement as it
reasonably should. Does anybody sup.
pose that had the culprit been a white
man he would have been handed over
to the tender mercies of the complain
ing party for him to fog with a horse
whip? Flogging is an outrageous, but
lawful, method of Furnishing petty Of
tenders in Delaware, but no white man
has yet been fogged as this Colored
man was. The Justice-God save the
mark-who delivered such sentence
should be treated to some ofthe same
medicine he gives.
