Race

He Proved Slick IN the End of the
Race
q. w. Wilson is fine looking
young man, aged about twenty-five
years, but unfortunately has never
been in q city and is not ION to the
ways of the people," Yesterday he
was passing along on the street, ap.
parently in deep study, when a negro
named Willie Washington, a noted
gambler, stepped up to him and said:
"Are you the man who engaged with
Mr.. to work on a ranch ?'
''No," was the startled mans reply.
"Well, / know he wants a man and
you can get the place" That is just
what L want" replied the unfortun-
ate man. A long conversation
then followed and Washington
secured the position for his supposed
new friend. Later, about twenty
minutes, he again met the man who
fully intended going to work on q
| ranch and said: "Your new boss told
me to get 81 so from you" "All
right, here 1t is" was Wilson's re-
ply, giving him the money Now
poor Wilson is out and the negro IL
in-that is he is in jail on the charge
being a suspicious character. The
coun tryman was the slickest artist in
! the end, and the sporting negro viii
doubtle pay for his fun.

Training Youngsters to Sling Stones.

1t has been said that Asiatic nations
excelled others in the use of the sling,
and the singers of an ancient army
used their little weapons with terrible
effect. "These natives have such SKILL"
says one old historian, "that it very
rarely happens that they miss their aim.
What makes them SO great in the use
of the sling is the training given them
from their earliest years by their moth
ers, who set up piece of bread hung at
the end of a rod for a target and let
their children remain without food until
they have hit it, when the child who is
the victor receives the bread as the re-
ward of his skill and patience. "-Har-

GLACIAL POSSIBILITIES.

Interesting Speculations Concerning SomA Ice-Mountains.
 Glaciers plunge into the sea, in many cold coun tries, and perish by drowning, their dismembered remains floating away as bergs. But their end is by dis solution where the annual mean tenn perature rises considerably above the freezing point. At some certain level they melt faster than they can flow, and so terminate. The level, indeed, is fuctuating one Icelandic glaciers are now steadily advancing; Swiss glaciers, according to M. Forel, have undergone, during the present century, five alternating periods of diminution and growth. The meteorological changes occasioning and emphasized | by these oscillations are very slight Their character, however, is unmistal1a- ble, and such as might have been an ticipated. That is to say, glacial de- crease accompanies warm and dry cycle; glacial increase, one that is damp and cold. Considerable alarm was ac- cordingly felt lest the flooding of the Sahara, numbered among the futile projects of recent sanguine epoch, should result in a largely-increased snowfall upon the Alps, and the conse- quent ice submergence of inhabited val leys. Such fears, it is true, rested on a meteorological misapprehension, yet they were, in principle, well founded.
 The glacial balance is sensitive. A very slight continuous preponderance of supply over wasting might, in few years, betray itself by really formidable and altogether irresistible effects. With out one additional degree of cold, it is conceivable that a persistently-aug- mented deposit of snow upon the i Gerstenhorner and the SchneestocE, although otherwise scarcely percepti- ble, might enable the Rhone glacier to overwhelm Brieg. But this would be an exceedingly small step toward the restoration of former state of things when an ice stream close upon two hundred and fifty miles in length;
 starting from the same source, crossed
 the frozen or non-existent lake of Geneva, and debouched by Culoz upon
 Lyons. Without severe cold as well as heavy precipitation, ice could not pos sibly have gained so great an ascen- dency. And this was no local phenom- enon; it was simultaneously prevalent over widely-separated tracts of the earth's surface.-Edinburgh Review.

THE Hartford Times of last evening closed an able article on the Connecti- cut campaign as follows: "The issues before the voters of Connecticut, then, are plain and we'll understood-reform of tariff law that burdens our indus tries; reform of a system that requires a majority of all the votes cast in the election of five state officers, while all the rest of the elected officials of the state, numbering over TOO, are chosen by plurality of the votes; and the dem- ocrats asks for the election of county commissioners by the people, or mi nority in the representation of each of these county boards. In the case of Sumatra tobacco, we would continue the highest customs tax. We believe that both issues appeal not only to every democratic voter in the state, but to the very considerable conservative element which is not allied with either party, but votes independently and for right and justice. From present advices of the political situation throughout the state, we are confident that democratic principles will win in Connecticut in November.

4 PANIC IN HAMBURG
Cholera's Increase Excites the
 Greatest Alarm.
HEAT AccELERATEs ITS SPREAD.

Terrible Mortality in Russia-Washington
 Officials Consult Regarding Measures for Keeping the Scourge from This
 Country Precautions in New York.
 HAMBURG, Aug. 24-The spread of cholera in this city since yesterday eN- cites the gravest alarm. The disease is in all parts of the city, the suburbs, and along the harbor.
 Several streets have been closed on ac- count of the prevalence of the disease in them.
 Up to last night $40 cases and 13O deaths had been reported. In Altona 29 cases have been reported. In both cities the health authorities are sending out in structions as to disinfection in illness and burial.
 Prof. Koch says that several cases in Hamburg are types of Asiatic cholera. The spread of the disease has undoubted- ly been accelerated by the oppressive heat. The thermometer registers 97 degrees ill the shade this morning.
 In Roman Catholic churches prayers have been offered for the abatement of the heat and the disease.

GUARDING AGAINST CHOLERA.
Precautions for Preventing Its IntrOduc
 tion Into This Country.

Preca autions for Preventing Its Introduce
 tion Into This Country.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Assistant Sec retary Spaulding and Surgeon Austin of the marine hospital service had 8 con ference yesterday afternoon looking to the best methods to be employed to pre- vent the introduction of cholera into this country The conference was the result of the advices from Hamburg and Havre, giving information of the prevalence of that disease there.
 It was decided to inform the health officers of New York and Baltimore of the condition of affairs and also to notify the immigrant inspectors. Secretary Spauld- ing is in communication with the agents of the steamship lines with 8 view to having immigrants effects thoroughly disinfected on the other side of the water.
 Private advices received in Berlin from Russia represent the mortality in the cholera stricken cities as far exceeding anything which is allowed to appear in the Russian press.
 Some idea of the apprehension which exists in Russian official circles may be gathered from the fact that telegraphic orders have been received by German firms for disinfectants and medicines which the trade is entirely unable to cope with.
 Nessrs. Gene & Company alone, for instance, received orders by telegraph from Dr. Remmert, Privy Councill or and Phy ysician- in Ordinary to the Czar, first for 10, ,O00 and then for 50,000 kilograms of carbolic acid but were compelled to reply that their stock was already ex- hausted by applications from other parts of Russia.
 Silesian papers point to the fact that the import of geese even from the cholera districts is still permitted, and that, to prevent the spread of the epidemic, Ger many will have to forbid this.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-United States Vice Consul General Fox at Teheran, Persia, cables to the State Department as follows, from Teheran:
 -Four hundred deaths from cholera. Five hundred cases have been treated by American hospital. Physicians are badly needed. When may l expect. ''(Signed Fox" The Department has replied that there are no general funds available for this purpose but that the telegram will be made public.

EVIDENCE goes to show that a person can dream of happenings in few sec onds that would take him several min utes to relate. Another peculiar thing about unquiet sleep is when dreamer who takes part in an imaginary conver- sation hears the words of the person he is talking to, though he furnishes ideas for both sides of the dialogue. A Bangor man, walking in his sleep, went fishing and hooked five-pound bass. He awoke to find himself struggling ip the waters of Lake Chemo.
