A Week Without Sleep for /. Wager.

At noon, ON Monday, March 80, in Detroit,
Mich, six men entered into a competition to test
their ability to do without sleep for period of
168 hours or full week. Four OF the contest
remaining being Townsend, six day walker,
and Cunningham, a ship carpenter. Townsend
succumbed on Sunday evening, and the manner
Of his failure and the great difficulty experienced
by Cunningham in keeping up his Tjgil for the
full period afford vivid illustration of the ex-
quisite torture which can be inflicted by forcihly
depriving enc of sleep. At about 10 o'clock,
Townsend began to weaken; he walked like
man asleep and reeled about the floor. An hour
later he complained that the floor had all at once
grown very steep and he could net keep ON
climbing. He stuck to his task, until midnight
when he leaned against the wall fora moments
rest He was so tired that he fell to the floor.
The shock reused him, and he begged the watch
man to keep him awake, but it could not be
minutes and then with tears in his eyes he said
it was all up with him. He could not stand 1t
any longer-he must lie down a minute Down
on the floor he threw himself, and before the
Waterman could get to him, full-fedged snore
was heard. and he was out of the race.
Cunningham was left alone with twelve
hours vigil before him. He walked, he sang,
he could devise to W ard of sleep. Hundreds of
people clustered about b i'm to see the last hour
pass. "Why did you stop the clock?" he almost
scr canned as the minutes dragged by. At length
1t was over and he was conducted to the theater
stage and introduced, but before the introduce
ii on was over, he was sound asleep. Cunning
ham lost eight pounds and Townsend six in the
match. The men were allowed to sleep in fifteen
minute maps at the conclusion OF their several
vigils, and we're said to have suffered no perma-
nent i'll from their novel contest.-Scientifc

country Is very rugged, but none the less
pleasing 10 us for that fact. The hills
and mountains dressed out in their green
suit OF forest foliage and spangled pro-
fusely with dogwood blossoms and odor-

refreshing to the eye. In short, 1t was
grand and picturesque to a West Tennes-

WE cordially invite our read
ers to peruse the following resolu-
ton, adopted by the organizers of
the third party:
Resolved, That while the party in
power in 1869 pledged the faith of the
nation to pay a debt in coin that had
been contracted on adeprecIated currency
basis and payable i'm currency, thus adj
ding nearly 81, 100000 900 to the burdens
of the people, which means the gold for
the bondholders and deprecated curren-
cy for the soldier, and holding that the
men who imperilled their lives to save
the life of a nation should have been
paid in money as good as that paid to
the bondholder, we demand the issue OF
legal tender treasury notes in sufficient
amounts to make the pay of the soldier
equal to gold, or such other legislation
as shall do equal and exact justice to the
Union soldiers of this country.
One of the most potential causes
that produces the enormous burdens
of taxation that now rest upon the
people is the millions of dollars an
nually paid the Union soldiers; and
yet, the third party wants to give
them more. Are you a third party.

IT is stated that there is millions
in cotton to the farmer if he will
only "hold on, and for the purpose
of enabling the farmer Ito hold on"
it is thought to be necessary to
build warehouses and secure gov
eminent aid. The last season is
not an exceptional one. Suppose
the farmer had deposited his last
years crop in warehouse? Would
he not have lost two cents pound
on account of the difference IN price,
and also lost in weight, besides the
expense account of interest on the
money, insurance, storage, the tax
for building the warehouses and the
tax for paying the federal officials ?
Again, if there is millions In hold
ing cotton, why is 1T that those who
hold do not mass millions Many
of the merchants hold cotton yet
there has been an unprecedented
number of failures among mer-
chants. The truth of the business
is that the cotton market of the
United States Is regulated by the
markets of Liverpool and that is
regulated by supply and demand.
Hence, those who believe that
warehouses would enhance the price
of cotton are wanting in fac Is to
substantiate their judgment. 1t is
true that millions of dollars are
made on cotton goods and made off
of the consumers, and they will be
compelled to pay exOrbitant prices
until the iniquitous tariff is reduce
ed sufficiently to allow foreign
manufacturers to compete with
those of the United States. Under
the existing tariff law, before for
eign manufacturers are allowed to
sell their goods in this country,
they are compelled to pay an import
duty on cotton goods Of about fifty
cents on the dollar. So that if 1t
were not for that tax, the foreign
manufacturer could sell his cotton
goods for fifty cents less on the
dollar. Such class Legislation has
produced the onerous burdens OF
taxation. The cause must be re-
moved before we are relieved of
the burden.

The Baptist Convention and Biz
rninrhar.

EDITORS BULLETIN-The writer hopes
at least to interest one reader of the Bull
LErIN with a few lines relative to his
trip to Birmingham to attend the South
ern Baptist Convention that met there
from the 8ih to the 18th of this month.
We lett our loved ones and our bust
ness, n fact our call" on the morning of
the 7th for Birmingham, via. Decatur,
reac hing our objective point at 1.S0 in the
evening on the 8th. After registering
our name in the Secretary's book, we were
conducted to our home, which had been
assigned us two weeks before our arrival.
In the outset, let MS say we had a most
glorious time. A more intelligent and
good looking body of Baptist men and
women our eyes never gazed upon. They
were there by the hundreds from almost
every state in the Union. Drs. Davis
and jackson, Of England were present,
also Diaz and Moseley, of Mexico. The
reports by the Secretaries of the Home
and Foreign Mission Boards, show
growing increase both in home and for
eign fields and added much greater en-
enlargement to the denomination than
the report year ago. All the statistics
show healthy growth and advancement
in the Masters cause and that the truth
and light of the gospel is pervading the
benighted regions and that men and wo-
men ere coming out on the Lords side
against idolatrY, Catholicism AID ruin.
Diaz's speech was grand 10 listen to. He
reported his church in CEoa growing
stronger and stronger mouth by month,
and he thought the sore prosecutions that
he and his brethren bad undergone there
for ChrIsl's sake under Catholic rule
would come to AZ end. Diaz is a full
blooded SpaniArd. and his use of our
English il somewhat broken. but he is a
deep thinker and is doing grand work
in Cuba. Well, the preaching and
speaking was of the very ablest, and
everybody went out Of Birmingham re-
joicing that they had met with the great
est convention on earth. The convention
will meet with the Baptist church at
Atlanta, Ga, next year in May.
An injustice would be done not to say
something of the resources and the peo-
pie of Birmingham. as well as the view
that met our eyes as we swiftly gilded

Decatur to Birmingham at the rate OF

In Trenton, they have law pro-
hibiting hogs from running at large
upon the streets. Eight or nine
very fine shoats belonging to a Ia
dy in the suburbs of the city were
taken up recently, put in the pound
and sold. The lady requested the
town authorities to return her hogs,
and upon their refusal, she armed
herself wi th a hammer, Ratchet and
buggy whip, went to the houses OF
the men who had bought the hogs,
knocked down the pens and drove
her pigs home. The purchasers
are now after the corporation to re-
fund the money and a suit will per-
haps be the result.

TIE third party organizers.

The third party organizers, we
are glad to state, were delegates
mostly from northern states.
Northern politicians have for many
years been trying TO divide the solid
South, and knowing that the AL
lance order originated in the South,
the Northern politician has with
his characteristic sbrewdness bee d
instrumental to a large degree In
endeavoring to convert the order
into political party, thereby hop
ing to entice many of the loyal
democrats of the South, who are
members of the Alliance, to sever
allegiance to their party. Hence,
they have organized a sub-treasury
party known as the Peoples Party.
While We admit that the chicanery
and wiry methods adopted by the
Northern politicians are to some ex-
tent calculated to IN isIead the un-
saspecting, yet there are thousands
of true democrats who have detect
ed the motives of the designing
schemers and have most positively
refused to embrace principles an
tagonistic to democracy. 1t is
needless to state that the BULLETIN
Is still democratic paper and be-
lieves that the Union soldier
deserves no more prote ction than
the Southern soldier.
