10TH OF APRIL CELEBRA-
TION.

The harmony and good feeling;
that were Characteristic of the
Iare Emancipation convention
were surpsislng to everybody. No
one got angry and all the defeated
aspirants for honors took ;heir
defeat good naturedly. There was
every effort to prevent street pa
rades, bnt the convention decided
to have one, and while we are
opposed to street parades, the
convention thought it wise to
elect US president and thus place
IN our hands the sceptre of power,
to make the affair a success. We
respectfully bow to the will of the
majority and shall do all in our
power to make this 28th Ami
versary celebration one of the
grandest in the history of our
people. 1t shall be our purpose
to show to this administration
what progress our people are
making in all branches of Industry
and to do this we respectfully
request the united aid of our
people. We want every brarch
of industry repre- sented.

POINTERS AT THE FAIR.

Madame Holmes is as pleasant
as any one.
Maj. Fleetwood has but little
to say.
Capt. Coolidge must be angry
with some one. He never laughs
until a pretty lady calls and asks
him to take a chance.
Jud. Malvin is on the reserved
force he will come in later.
Capt. Arthur Brooks has retired
or the girls have retired him from
service. His matrimonial event
casued it. The girls look at the
Capt. with a sheeplsh eye.
DR.. II. S Smith Is the busiest
man in the institution.
Bob Tompkins is always on the
lookout for some one.
The happiest man is W. n.
Dudson. He has gone in TO the
grocery business.
By all means let the pnblic at
tend next week.

OUR NEW COMMISSIONERS

Our new District Commissioner
Mr.. Roberts, of Philadelphia,
has arrived in town and from
what we know of him, he Is a re-
publican from way-back. We now
hope that some District appoint
ments will be made. Commls-
sioner Douglass has been hapdi-
capped by not having an associate
who is In harmony with him and
as we all know Mr.. Hines 10 be a
man of honor and integrity, we
are confident that he will now
submit to the discision ofthe ma

WILLIAM E. CHANDLER.

The charges that were made,
in the Senate, few days ago,
aga ns' the distinguished Senator
from New Hampshire by the Dem
ocratic Senator from Florida, were
false and malicious. No sane man
would dare to Say that Mr.. Chand-
Ter is responsible for any crime
committed against the helpless
republicans IN the South. Mr..
Chandler has done what any hon.
est man would DO, aud that is TO
denounce and condemn the brutal
Outrages perpetrated against white
aud color d republicans 10 the
South. If there had been an hon
est and fair count by the returning
board of Florida, the two demo-
cratic Senators from that State
would be enjoying private lite.
The democratic Senator, Mr..
Call, of Florida, knew that he
uttered ialsehood when be said
that Mr.. Chandler is rPsponsi-
bic to- the acts of commission by
the democratic p .rty in the South.
NJ man Is held IN higher esteem
10y the American people than Mr.
Chandler aud no one but a coward
or kDave would attempt
to shift the onus of crimes
committed, Jn an others should :

La Blanche Skipps.

The Daily Report of Tuesday
says:
ga suit was filed in the Justices
Court today by John Furlong
against George La Blanche. John
Doe Steele and John Doe Holmes,
"whose names are not better
known to the plaintiff for 299.99.
The plaintiff AYERS that the de-
PENDANTS obtained from him $3.50
for their use and benefit on July
End, and that they have wholly
failed to return the money or ex-
plain why it is withheld.
Three attachments were issued
against George La Blanche, on
claims for goods sold and deliv-
cred.
The facts of the case are that
La Blanche was selected as stake
holder in a race where Furlong
was backing Dobbins, and before
the start skipped to the hills with
$3.50. The race was not run. On
Saturday last the partner of La
Blanche offered Furlong the mon
ey, but he declined, as he proposes
to not only recover, but land the
Marine in Jail.

How Venus Appeared.

Recently the directors of the

Arts ordered that certain statuary
Of the nude class be draped. The
action Of the bald-headed prudes
has been widely ridiculed, but
nothing clearer than this. by Am
brose Bierce, in the San Fran
cisco Examiner, has been aimed at
them:
Said the modest old maids of Detroit
Your show is immoral withdraw it,
For statue was there
Which had nothing to wear,
And, o, how they blushed when they
saw it,
So the gallery men, though of sounder
Instruction in art and profounder.
Gave in, and men cheered
When Venus appeared
With horse blanket buckled around
her.

Hunting for Mines.

Nearly all of our ; tate exchanges
make mention of the arrival OF
mining men and experts in their
localities, for the purpose of ex-
amining mining properties with a
view to purchase. In many in
stances they are bound for out
side districts which have not been
visited by anyone except the own
ers of claims therein, since they
were organized, and which have
heretofore failed to attract the nc
tice or attention Of capitalists or
those on the lookout for favorable
prospects 10 bond for speculative
purposes. There is doubtless
greater activity in that line than
at any time in the last ten years,
and the probability is that more
sales will be effected and q grea.er
number Of properties developed
this season than during all the
time we have mentioned. This
change is directly attributable to
the passage of the Silver bill
which has acted like magic in
awakening renewed interest in sill
yer mining, as is indica ed by the
active search for favorable oppor-
tunities to invest in properties
which would have remained DOR
mant for years to come, but for
such favorable legislation in the
interest of the white metal-Jour-
nal.
