a
It looks very much as IL DR.. Crum was
going to be a source OF good deal Of an
noyance to the President He is the col
ored man whom the President has ap-
pointed postmaster at Charleston. The
| business men OF Charleston don't want him
for their postmaster and the white people
generally have protested against his noml-
nation. 1t can be safely stated that the
| President would not appoint an objection
able man postmaster in a northern city, and
| his action in appointing an Objectionable
man to such position In a southern city is
an outrage, TO say the least OF 1t.
The nomination OF DR.. Crum will not be
confirmed without Lively fight The anti
Harrison senators appear to be supporting
the democratic senators In opposing the
nomination. The nomination came before
the poStotfics committee on Thursday, and
it became apparent at onoe that there was a
determination on the part OF the anti
Harrison republicans Of the committee 10
find ouS whether DIR. Crums nomination
was not the result Of a bargain. DR.. Crun
was delegate 10 the Minneapolis conven-
ton, and the charge is made against him
that although instructed to vote for the
denomination OF the President he pledged
himself when he reached Minneapolis to
vote for some one else, and only consented to
vote in accordance with his Instructions
when a promise had been made to him
that he should have the Charleston post
office. He had been an applicant for the
office for three years. and ths President had
persistently refused to appoint him. 1t is
alleged that he bulldozed the President into
nominating him by threatening to throw
his influence against him at Minneapolis.
At the meeting OF the postof1oe COMMITTEES
on Thursday Senator Woloott, who op-
posed the denomination Of the President,
asked Or. CEum how he voted at Mime
apolis. Crum ans wsred that he voted for
Gen. Harrison. The senator then asked him
If he did not pledge himself TO vote for some
one else. After hesitating awhile be said he
did not remember. Senator Woloost re-
marked that he wanted to hear nothing
further from him. He was evidently salts

Omitted 20 LIT Men Up"

A remarkable convention Assem- bled In
New York city on Thursday. IL is esti-
mated that there were 80, 900 young men and
young women in attendance, representing
every state In the union; also Canada, Nova
Scotia, England, Scotland, Spain, Austria,
Ceylon, India, Syria, Africa, China, Japan
and the Sandwich Islands. ALI OF these
people, gathered from all the world, are
soldiers of a great army battling for the
Lord-they are delegates, or otherwise
representatives of various Christian En-
deavor societies, In attendance upon the in
ternationsl convention of tho organization.
The purpose OF the Christian Endeavor Is
tersely expressed is one one OF its notices:
United to Lift Men Up" The society is a
nursery of the church, not Of one particular
religious denomination. but Of the great
composite church that teaches Christ and
him orucihed.
The organization is only IL years old, but
during its short existence it has grown to
embrace membership of not less than
l,500,000 young men and young women
who live in Christian homes in all quarters
of the globe. It teaches these young people
to be active workers in the Masters vine-
yard, and the only qualification it requires
is that the applicant for membership shall
acknowledge, FIRST and foremost.
personal devotion TO our divine Lord
and Savior, Jesus Christ" There
is nothing in the platform which could
possibly arouse UNCONVENTIONAL jealousiss
among the members; on the other hand.
the Presbyterian is urged to become even
better Presbyterian, and the Episcopalisn
better Episcopalian. Il is a Christian
brotherhood In which all the members are
bound together by ties Of faith and love.
At the first session of the convention the
Madison Square garden, probably the
largest public meeting hall in New York
city, was packed to overlooking, there
being nearly $4,000 persons in the building.
AS this was not near all OF the delegates,
overflow meetings were held at several
other buildings, and each was crowded.
DR.. c. F. Deems welcomed the delegates,
aud babe them godspeed in their noble
work-a sentiment which will be re-echoed
by the civilized world.

Dave Shaw, the oolored man who was
alleged to have been lvnched by a mob in
Laurens county, South Carolina, a month
aud half ago, for stealing, has turned up
alive and well. He tells a remarkable tale
about mob having strung him up by the
neck two or three times. hoisted him by the
thumbs number Of times and then beaten
him numerically with a leather strap. All
of this torture. be alleges, was inflicted in
order to wiring confession from him. After
passing through this terrible ordeal Shaw
says the mob started with him toward
Reedy river, to drown him, bus on the way
he broke loose and outran the Fifty men in
the crowd and all the bullets they could
shoot after him. After his escape from the
mob he went to Toccos, Ga, where he re-
manned until last, week. Shaw's story
sounds like some old fkuklux yarn brought
down TO date, and is too thin to believe.
The chances are that the men he stole from
gave him a logging and told him to leave
the place, and that is all there is OF it, His
temperance. however, will furnish an oc-
casion for some prominent northern journals
to take back some Of the hard ana untrue
things they said about lynching colored
people for larceny in the south.

One Erect of the Stewart BIZ.

The coinage committee yesterday agreed
to report the Stewart free coinage bill
favorably. Ii did not discuss any OF the
questions that have been raised in connec-
ton with the bill since IL was passed by the
Senate. The free coinage members OF the
committee concluded, doubtless, that any
discussion Of the bill in committee would be
useless, and would only consume time with
out accomplishing anything.
The impression is strong that the bill oan-
not pass the House. The disposition OF large
number of the democratic members is to
abide by the silver plank in the national
democratic platform. 1t is claimed that If
the anti-ulver republicans vote with the
anti-silver democrats the bill will be beaten
by about thirty votes. The republicans say
they will not filibuster against the bill but
will vote against IL.
There does not seem 10 be much prob
ability BOW Of closure rule being adopted.
The speaker Is understood to object to
bringing In a closure rule unless asked to do
30 by majority of the democratic menu
bers and il ia asserted by the anti-silver
democrats that majority Of the demo-
cratic members will not make a request for
the rule. Without such a rule it will not
be possible TO reach a vote on the bill before
adjournment.
A strong point that is made against the
bill is that it would contract the currency
instead Of expanding 1t. 1t provides for
coming all the silver bullion in the treas
sFy before coming any other silver. The
capacity of the Tnints is about $40, 600 900 a
year. There is enough silver bullion In the
treasury to keep the minis employed for
two years. During that time, therefore,
none of the silver brought to the nints
would be coined.
II the bill should become law the pur-
chase Of silver by the government would be
stopped. The government now purchases
about 81, 0oo, 900 ounces a year, and issues
silver certificates against 1t. To that ex-
tent the volume Of the currency is being in
creased annually by means OF silver. With
the passage Of the Stewart bill the issuance
of silver notes would cease at once. 10 their
place there would be issued 10000, 900 Of
silver dollars a year There is,
therefore, considerably more money being
issued now under the present silver law
than there would be II the Stewart bill should
become a law. And II 1t should become a
law it is not probable that the price of sill
yer would advance. The government now
purchases the whole Of the silver product of
this country. Under the Stewart bill 1t
would not purchase an ounce Of silver, aud
the mints could not coin the whole product
OF the American mines The probabilities,
therefore. are that the prizes Of silver would
decline.

Tit for Tat.

A green countrymAn" may sometimes have
wits too sharp for city folks. as some Of the
great noblemen attached 10 the court of Louis
XVIII. Of France once discovered, says the
Youths Companion. They were looking about
the Hotel des Invalides or hospital where dis
ebled veteran soldiers are maintained at the ex-
pense Of the state. There they encountered a
peasant who was evidently much interested in
what he saw.
Let us have little sport with the country
man" said one Of the noblemen. Wait here
while set him to looking for the headless vet
eran."
He stepped over to the peasant and entered
into q pleasant conversation with him. He told
him some true things about the invslides and
added:
You must not fail to see the headless vet
cram"
"A veteran without headf"
Certainly. He lost it in the last war. Ask
any Of those gentlemen over there and he will
tell you where the headless soldier may be
found"
The countryman approached the group, who
were waiting to witness the success OF their
companions little game. He bowed and scraped,
and then said:
I've been told TO inquire here for the head
less veteran. / should never have believed that
any such thing was possible If didn't see great
lords going around mere without any brains"
The noblemen had their laugh, but it was at
their own expense

Cholera in Paris.

Our dispatches this morning state that
there were seven deaths from cholsra In
Paris on Friday. II what the Paris oorre-
spondent OF the London Lancet sAys is cor
reot, all the cases in that CITY which were
diagnosed as cholerine were cholera, The
same correspondent says that the authori-
ties are endeavoring to conceal the fact that
cholera has made its appearance In the
city proper, hoping that they will be able
to stamp out the disease before its pres
euce becomes generally known. The
announcement that cholera was spread
ing in the city would create panic, and
strangers would leave the place hurrisdly.
According to the dispatches one death
from cholera occurred in London last week.
1t is hardly probable that there have been
others, but il the condition of affairs In
Paris is what il is stated to be 1t may not be
long before there will DO plenty Of cholera
in London. Communication between the
tive cities is go easy that 1t would be almost
impossible for London to establish an
effective quarantine against Paris.
The Importance of watching incoming
European steamers for cholera cases cannot
be impressed upon our quarantine officials
too strongly. Midsummer has hardly been
reached, and cholera introduced into New
York, or Boston, or Philadelphia at this
time would likely spread over a great por-
ton Of the country.
While the cholera was confined to Russia
not much uueasiness was felt with regard
to it in this country, but now that It has
reached Paris, and is spreading. there is
good ground for apprehending in this coun-
try visit from the dreaded disease.
