Hon. 10 CAVE, IN letter to the
Statesman from Falk's store, gives
au account of the stabbing of e. E.
Barter, an old man with one arm, by
Billy Billings, who lives at Barter's
place. They had some words and a
slight fight ensued. Barter ran out
of the house and Billings followed
him and struck him in the back just
under the shoulder blade on the left
side, the knife striking rib, glancing
upward and entering the left lung.
After being cut Barter started for
Falk's store, about mile away, and
when near there fell from exhaustion
His cries were heard and people went
to his assistance. DIR. Crymer thinks
Barter will recover with proper care

RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

Goods Image in Man: Some Intuitive
Perceptions of Truth" by Henry Wood,
author of Natural Law in the Business
World. A work which is not . theologi
cal treatise, but presents advanced reii-
aious thought from non-professional and
thoroughly independent standpoint. No
attack is made upon any existing theologi-
cal system, but, as says the author, "the
persistent retention of out-grown creeds
as Interchangeable statements of truth has
caused Q reaction towards msterislism,
atheism and pessimism, and 1t behooves
every lover of his kind to aid in turning
the unwholesome current" The substance
of some of the chapters appeared In the
Arena, where they attracted much stten-
tion and were warmly commended. Lee

"France of To-day: A Survey Compare
tive and Retrospective" by N. Betham-
Edwards The author is an English wo-
man ana an 'Oficier de i Instruction de
France" also a novelist of considerable
note. The skill of the romsncer is shown
in some of the descriptive portions of the
work, which are chsrmingly written. but
it is neither q romance nor guide-book, nor
compendium of statistical and historic
facts. France is portrayed as seen by the
authors own eyes. She describes the land
and its people by departments, grouping
these together by similarities of geogrsph'
icsl and human peculiarities. Each sec
ton of the work is given in the form of 6
journey, beginning and ending in Paris,
dwelling at length upon features of spec
ial interest and importsnce; the farms,
vineyards, schools, the silk industry and
other employments, cottage homes, sd
vancement in education, forestry and mum
bers of other topics, are dealt with in de
tail, showing that France ia to-day mar
vel of prosperity as compared with the
past Miss Bethsm-Edwsrds shows us /.
people industrious, frugal, cheerful and
peace-loving. Popular literature of q
practical nature has been q great feature
in the uplifting of the common people
and accomplished more for the consolida
ton of the republic than the hundreds o.
millions spent upon the construction o.
fort and turret-ships. The work will q
far to refute what the author calls "tht
foul imputations of so-cslled realistic wri
ters." Statistics and official reports ar,

EDITORIAL NOTES.

1t is said that there are now forty thou
sand unoccupied houses in Berlin that can
not be rented. At the same time there
are a good many people who want houses,
but cannot pay the price.
The hearty sympathy of all the people
of this nation goes out to President Har-
rison. In the presence of death partisan
ship and petty politics stand aside, and our
common humanity makes itself manifest
Greatness isn't always appreciated at
first sight. When Rsnan first offered his
studies on Buddhism to the Revue des
Deux Mondes the editor returned the article
with a note reading: tit is impossible that
people could be so stupid"

A statue is to be erected at Bar -le-Duc,

Michaux was blacksmith and constructed

A London policeman with a model rec
ord was accused of being seen in a saloon.
Although the charge was false, his pride
was SO wounded that he committed suicide
by jumping into the Thames, and all Lon

men of New York and Chicago could stand
the accusation of being seen In saloon.
The king of Siam is about to undertake
the financial experiment of issuing paper
money. He will begin in modest way on
April 1, 1893, with an issue of 81, SOC, 900,
for which he has already had the notes
printed, the value being inscribed thereon
in Siamese, English, Chinese, Malay, Lao
sian and Cambodian characters. There is an
iuvincible and sensible oriental prejudice
in favor of gold and silver money that will
be hard to overcome.
At the opening of the Jerusalem
railroad curious Moslem rite was OBJ
served. Three sheep were slaughtered
and their blood bssprinkled on the rails
before the frst train was allowed to pro-
ceed upon its journey. This superstitious
ceremony had for its object the soaring
away of evil genii, who would otherwise
have exerted a baneful influence upon pas
sengers using the line.
Senator Eaton is not talking much in
this campaign. Unless he has greatly
changed he does not feel like asserting
that protection Is . fraud. He once said:
To the members of this House desire to
address myself, to those who are talking
of robbery, of pIunder, of corruption, steal
ing and thievery. There is not a single
article bought In the South, from the
wagon that draws the farmers cotton to
the market to the pin that his wife uses,
that is not fifty per cent. cheaper than it
was fifteen years ago. No matter how
wrong the principle of protection may be,
that is the fact. I grant you that 1t is
wrong; but the fact remains the same. 1t
has oheapened everything under Gods
heaven that men, women and children use
in this land-everything.

party is going to win, next month, and he
sees many and excellent reasons why 1t
should. President Harrison's administra-
ton, he says, has been SO wise, patriotic
and successful as to extort praise from the
lips of political enemies. Agriculture
fourishes, established industries prosper,
new ones are springing up, labor is en-
pleyed, our internal commerce has grown
beyond reasonable computation, our for
eign commerce has received a new impetus.
Our currency, ample in volume, is uniform
in value. Our interest-besring debt has
been reduced by 1895, 900, 900. The free
list of the tariff of 1890 has reduced
revenue by at least $4,000, 900; yet
there is promise of larger
surplus in the treasury at the close
of the present fiscal year than at the close
of the last one. Concerning this years
Democratic platform Senator Allison
writes: 1t not only promises the repeal of
the Mckinley law, but it declares that
every shred and remnant of protection, in
cidental or otherwise, shall be torn up

no matter what the effect upon labor or
property or upon industry. The Demo
cratic party calls for free trade pure and
simple, not on economic grounds only, but
on constitutional grounds. When did this
become fundamental principle of the
Democratic partya 1 have made careful
examinations of their platforms and af-
firm that no suoh utterance was ever made
before in any national platform of the
party. The only political party that ever
enunciated such doctrine before was the
convention of the confederate States when
in rebellion. The men who framed the
confederate constitution of 1861 and the
men who adopted its tariff plank for the
Democratic national platform of 1892 were
of the same kind.
In connection with this the assertion of
the Lynchburg, Virginia, News that Mr..
Cleveland is to be elected by the votes of
the "Solid Free Trade South" uni1ed with
some others is interesting.

THE LATEST FROM MARS.

Not long ago, it will be remembered,
enthusiasts were asserting that "the red
planet" was inhabitable, that the people on
it were probably trying to signal us, etc.,
etc. On the other hand, conservative
astronomers said that 1t would perhaps be
fifty years before 1t could even be told that
Mars was or wss not inhsbitable. Profess
sor Holden, director of the Lick observs-
tory, has made public some of the latest
ideas concerning Mars. Prominent among
them in interest are those of Professor
Schaeberle of California, who inclines to
believe that the dark surfaces of the planet
are land and the lighter spots water, view
precisely opposite to that usually taken.
He calls to mind that there are gradations
of shading in the dark spaces, and that
while 1t is difficult to account for these,
If the dark represents water, they
are only natural variations If 1t repre-
sents land. Light reflected on q
spherical surface of water would be most
intense at the center, and 1t is well known
that this is the fact regarding the bright
surfaces OF Mate. OH tne otnef unno, IL
the dark spots are seas, how can the fact
that they are darkest at the center be ex-
planned! There are times, also, when the
LIGHT surfaces seem ruffled and 1t Is easy to
imagine that some storm is agitating the
waves of q sea. As for the "canals" In the
heht spaces, Professor Schseberle considers
them submerged mountain chains or reefs,
which seem to continue in lofty ranges
| across the continents. Professor Holden
| says with regard to his associates
i theories: It appears to me that
there are two very important remarks tc
/ be made in regard to his conclusions.
should not be inclined to say SO strongly
a. he does that the dark areas Of Mars srt
very much darker and better seen at th'
planets centre than at its disc, and
should wish to insist strongly on poin
| first brought out by Professor sohiaparell
/ with regard to the canals, namely, that al
the canals of the bright areas originate AM
| end in the darker regions which are calle'
"sess" or 'lakes," or else terminate Il
| other canals. In 30 far this seems to be
proof that they may be water.
This shows that the astronomer wh

Anadventure with Mexican Outlaws.

TFrom the St Louis Globe Democratl
"I had an ugly adventure with bandits
in the mountains of Mexico in the autumn
engineer. "I was ont on q prospecting
tour and had with me four young English
men and four Mexicans. On the fourth
day out from Sierra Mojads we were at
tackled by party OF outlaws led by the
dreaded Miguel Bstacos.s, the Jesse James
of northern Mexico. At the first FIRE two
of my Mexicans were killed. We retrested
hastily to a rocky gorge and there made q
stand. The outlaws numbered about If
teen, and instead of sweeping down upon
us, Batacosts sent a portion of his men ov
er the mountain to get in our rear. We
were hemmed in completely That night
my two remaining Mexicsns deserted and
went over to the enemy, leaving but my
self and the four Englishmen to do battle
with seventeen as desperate cutthrosts as
ever ranged the mountains of Mexico. We
realized that If we surrendered we would
be murdered, and decided to make a fight
to finish. Our position among the rocks
was well-nigh inpregnable and we were
armed, but had no water, and the weather
was fesrfully hot. There WAS ranch about
nine miles distant, owned by an American
named Davis, an ex-confederste, who had
refused to take the oath of allegiance. If
we could get word to the ranch the siege
would be quickly raised, for Davis had q
dozen men as daring as himself at his COM
mand. One of the Englishmen volunteered
to undertake the journey. He succeeded
in -dodgtng the outlaws, and at eleven

enemy came flying past us. We took q

remnant of the gang. Bstscosts Was capt.

sent to the governor of Chihuahua, who had
offered a reward of 1000 Mexican dollar.
