LABoURERs AT THE EXHIBITION.

Mr.. john McPhaiI of Tull0ch, ST. Thomas
Vale, made an effort to induce 100 l,blrprs
TO visit the exhibition at his own EXPENSE
Offering to pay their train up and down
and their admission to the exhibition hA
succeeded in getting So. tn enroll their
names the night before and promised TO
accompany them. On Wednesday morning
a number of them went to Nj. McPhaiI
and excused themselves, saying they would
rather not go until the 9th, Is had re.
turned and told them what it WAS. Mr..
McPhall pressed them for tl.rir reason and
they replied that they were afraid of being
locked up and made slaves he, however,
succeeded i'll bringing SO. with him, among
them were about Is coolies. On arriving
i'll Kingston, Mr.. McPhail gave them q
first class meal, which was served mn bv

they enjoyed, after that he took them m

stlle, but. eventually he got them all In:
he then went round with them alOnr with
his Overseer and explained things to them
They expressed great delight at all thew
saw, and some of them, in reply TO the
question, How do yOn like il ? said they
had not mouth enough to tell what thcy
thought of it. They thanked Mr.. McPhail,
heartily for his kind treat and many Of
them were so pleased that they remained
in town to visit the exhibition again to-.
day at their WI expense. The balance
returned home. They all slept at, Des,
noes Wharf. Their meal at Mr.. Havdrn;s
consisted Of a plate OF strong beef souI,
with rice in it-then each had a. glass OF
beer, and afterwards a course of stewed
beef with rice, vans and bread all nicely
and Hastily cooked, and each had nc mrcL
as they could eat. Mr.. McPhail has done
his country a great good; apart. fiom his
philanthropic feeling for the people that
labour for him, he felt that if he indnced
his people to come and visit. tile Exhibi,
tion they would go back and tell the
people all they Saw. Give the direc. lie to

The subscriptions toward the $1O.O OO. 900
which the managers of the exposition are
seeking to raise in that way do not come in
with the rapidity desired, and though Chi
cago has granted a loan of So, 100000 from
the municipal treasury, it looks now as if the
finance committee would appeal to Congress
for q grant of SO, 100000 more. The action
of the House last Saturday, cutting down
nearly one-half the salaries of the officials,
will naturally ~irritate those who have accepted
such positions, and Director General Davis
does not take kindly to the suggestion that
his functions be somewhat restricted. En-
barrassments usually beset the inception of
any great undertaking, and it is not unrca-
sonable to expect that we shall yet have a
Worlds Fair worthy Of the name.

sense to order their Commissioners to remain
until the close of the Exhibition, a rational
action which a prominent Colony like Barba-
dos should have been the first to take. Mr..
Lawrence's official visit to Jamaica, we have
reason to believe, has not benefited him fnan.
cially, so that his fellow countrylnen have
cause to thank him for his assida ous AMI self

be a valuable document worthy of the occa.

From the Boston COngregationalist IL Feb }

1t seems likely that the monopoly on the
telephone will cease i'll two or three years, as
the first patent will expire March 7, 1898, and
others less important not long after. No
doubt the company who hold the monopoly
will make all possible efforts to continue it,
but it is hardly possible that they will be able
longer te control the broad principle of the
transmission of vocal sounds by electrical I'M
dulations. This fundamental patent has al.
ready expired in England, and telephone rates
are being reduced by competition. New
companies will doubtless fine it difficult to
compete with the Bell Company on account
of its long standing monopoly in cities and
large towns, but, on the other hand, a wide
field will be opened where heretofore, on
account of the exorbitant rates of the Bell
Company, no telephones have been in use.
Here, then, is the chance for an attempt to
reduce the charges for telephone service,
30 that this great convenience may be utilized
much more extensively bypersons of moderate
means.
1t Is almost q year since Chicago after
strenuous e%xertions secured from Congress
the coveted prize of the Worlds Fair, but
in the interval since then little has been done
towards realizing the colossal scheme. 1t
took 30 long to straighten out the complica-
tions over the site that it is only within a
fortnight that ground has been broken for
the first buildings. There is plenty of time,
however, to erect the necessary structures
provided the w~herewithal is forthcoming
bnt just here the enterprise seems to halt.

IN THE HANDS OF PIRATES.


Another Account of the Capture of
the Namoa.
The Shanghai correspondent of the Lon
don Standard gives an interesting detailed
account of the capture of the Hong Kong
steamer Namoa by pirates last December.
The pirates, it should be said, shipped as
passengers.
The pirates made their first appearance
formed in a solid body forward, each man
armed with two revolvers, one in his left
hand and another in his belt, while in his
right hand each waved cleaning cutlass.
Instantly they formed into three parties,
each led by chief, while the whole body
apparently acted under the leadership of
one big individual. Two parties rushed
aft along the deck, where they met the
Malay quartermaster on duty. Half-a-
dozen Ievolvers were instantly discharged
at him, and the Malay, who had turned to
show fight, was shot through the head.
The wretches seized the still pulsating
body of their first victim and feaved t
overheard, food for the sharks which
prowl about those waters in shoals.
They then rushed towards the saloon
with hideous yells and promiscuous and
apparently aimless discharge of bullets,
well calculated to strike terror into people
who were enjoying their meal in fancied
security. The unfortunate Captain Peter
son received four bullets in his head and
fell off his chair corpse. The sounds of
the commotion had by this time reached
the saloon, through the skyligh of which
the pirates poured in volley of bullets
without moments warning, but, strange
to say, no one was hurt. Haif-a-dozen
"stink-po with their overpowering
fumes, were then hurled down, and body
of pirates appearing at the door of the
saloon, the party, so suddenly brought
face to face with armed desperadees,
sought safety in their rooms. A brisk fu
sillade was now going on amidships, where
another portion of the pirate gang was di

Those who are trying to start the worlds
fair are having trouble enough. The site
has, to be sure, been fixed upon, but that
is about all that is really settled. There
is much doubt about the financial part of
the proceedings. And to add to the woe,
the trades and labor unions of Chicago
have informed the directory of the condi-
tons which thay insist must prevail in all
contracts for labor to be done in prepara-
ton for it. They have served upon the
board of directors a notice of their de-
mands, in which they rather threateningly
call the attention of the directory to
"the great unrest of the industrial
masses, and the very sensitive
nature of the relations of en-
ployers and employees, not alone in Chica-
60, but throughout the civilized world"
and they recall the labor disturbances of
1877 and 1886. The propositions which
they make to the directory are these: 1.
The employment of union labor as far as
possible. 2. Eight hours. 3. Preference
given to local residents and American citi-
zens. 4. A minimum rate of wages of
$3.50 per day of eight hours for unskilled
unorganized labor. s. The establishment
of system of arbitration to include all
cases of disputes between employers and
employees.
With difficulty in getting money to pay
for the work and with difficulty in getting
the work done the lot of the directors will
be very unhappy one. Somebody will
have to work more than eight hours day
if the fair is to be opened in time.

| A certain young theologue went down
from Princeton to Philadelphia to preach
one of his seminary sermons. He was one
of these extremely fowery writers who
sometimes dazzle rhetoricslly the tender
souls of the younger members of the con-
gregation, and the elders of the church
were besieged to have him down again.
They at length consented, but alas! they
had forgotten his name! So they wrote to
one of the seminary professors, saying:
"Please send us that fioweret, streamlet,
rivulet, starlight man to preach for us next
Sabbath. We have forgotten his name,
but we have no doubt you will be able to
recognize him." He was recognized. He
was sent. He became the pastor of the

his fellow citizens were looking about for
United States senator six months after,
they remembered that 4th of July speech,
and they elected him.
Prince Sanjo Saneyoshi, whose death
has been announced, was for twenty
years the prime minister of Japan. After
his retirement from that Office he was in
vested with the dignity and duties of lord
keeper of the seals. Throughout his active
and industrious in Sanjo Saneyoshi
was conspicuous for the cour-
age with which he asserted and
upheld the Imperial prerogatives, and for
his devotion to the truest interest of the
sovereign. He was member of the
small and exclusive body of mobiles at
tached to the emperor's court at Kioto-
the city in which the Makados dwelt, Sc
cluded and politically powerless, for CEN
turies, uutil by the efforts of loyal
coalition the present ruler was restored, in
1868, to his true position of supreme
authority. Of this coalition Sanjo was an
active leader, and upon the re-establish
ment of the imperial sway he was ap-
pointed to the highest post in the admins
tration. The designation of Prince was
applied to him more generally by foreign
ers than by the Japanese, his precise grade
corresponding more nearly with that of an
English duke than any other degree of
western nobility.
teresting statement concerning the
-four trade of this country and
the conditions which affect it, The
total import of wheat and -four into the
United Kingdom for 1889 equals 53S, ,519,-
006 bushels, including flour as wheat FIVE
bushels to the barrel. The importation
for food is about 144, 900, 900 annually Ito
which should be added 72,OO0,0 900 bushels
home grown). This would leave 394, ,000;-
600 as the quantity exported, and it is
needless to add that this enormous guam
tity is nearly all of it exported as -four,
which would amount to Is, 500, 900 barrels,
of which we supply about 100000 bar
rels as flour and about 20 millions as
wheat, total of about 3s per cent. of the
British export. AS two-thirds of this is
as wheat, America loses whatever profit
the miller might receive in grinding the
| hundred million bushels and exporting it
| abroad Besides, there is the loss of the
| profit on both the flour and wheat than at
| present goes to Great Britain. Further,
through the commerce of Great Britain
should we attempt to make sales to first
hands, the American exporter finds his
products confronted by American -four
that the British buy of us and sell to the
world cheaper than we can sell directly.
