Friday Aug 9TH was an eventful day
here, and one long to be remembered
by those whose presence graced Har-
CONS Grove, to enjoy the Union picnic.
1t was Union picnic too. Everybody
worked together. Long before the time
appointed for the grand parade, people
shady grove. Everyone carried large
could be seen vending their way to the
basket and smiling face. The parade,
headed by brass band Hope No. 2
which consisted of the S. S., scholars
and the Juveniles, reached the grove at
ii O'Clock a. NJ, After short rest the
programme was rendered. There were
some splendid essays, and some sweet
singing by the choir. Rev's Hibbler,
Marshall and Davis certainly deserve
great praise for their excellent actresses.
A table was spread from one end of the
grove to the other, and after the pro-
gramme every body repaired to this
where they enjoyed themselves to the
highest.

Annie Johnson, Coo1ed New York
girl recently threw vitriol in the face OF
Vim. Snow, white man who betrayed
and refused to marry her. He was hor-
ribly burned ami SCARED as he we'll de-
served to be, as he had broken three of
her ribs by kicking her and also stabbed
her. Snow will never be as good look
ing as be was, but will probably have
much more sense and decency.

Maj. Warner, Republican candidate for
governor Of Missouri, has been for twen-
ty-seven years resident of that State,
married there and has children there.
Nevertheless, the Jefferson City Tribune
sneers at him as Carpet Dagger. And,
intelligent men who are contemplating
change Of residence and settlemen mt in
a new locality who read this in the
official organ of the State-will shun

Mr.. Henry F. Downing a Colored

The Mississippi Valley Railroad Com

separate coaches for white and Colored
passengers, has been acquitted, on the
grounds that the company provided the
coaches, but that it was impossible to
keep the whites and the Negroes sepa-

SATURDAY, AUGUST 10, 1892.

In his speech of acceptance, Mr..
Cleveland thus alludes to the so .called
"force bill:'
"We are pledged to resist the legisla-
ton intended to complete this scheme,
because we have not forgotten the satur-
MALTA Of theft and brutal control which
followed another federal regulation of
state suffrage; because we know that the
managers of a party which did not scru-
pie to rob the people of PRESIDENT
would not hesitate to use the machinery
created by such legislation, to revive
corrupt lnstrumentalities for partisan
purposes; because an attempt to enforce
such Legislation would rekindle animos
tiles where peace and hopefulness now
prevail, because such an attempt would
replace prosperous activity with discour
agement and dread throughout large
? section OF our country, and would men
ace, everywhere in the land, the rights
reserved to the States and to the people.
which underi!e the safeguard of Ameri-
can liberty"
Such sturdy mendacity and impudence
so lavishly displayed at once determine
the authors calibre. Such so.called
elections and gerrymanders as have been
attempted by Mr.. Cleveland's party in
New York, New Jersey, Missouri, Wis
consin, and Michigan, the precursors of
civil war-they can lead to no other re-.
suit. And the authors simplicity is
shown by his horror of federal regula-
ton OF suffrage, when Tammany, no
doubt, intends to 80 regulate the suffrage
in New York as to keep it's electoral
vote from going to Cleveland.

be convicted because out of band OF

thing working that way when the vic

be the last. White people need to learn
a good deal about the way lynch law

not, however, stated how those wages
compare with those paid in the Demo

CoUaTsHIP AMONG THE ARABS

In Many Cases 1t Is Love at First Sight
but Often Lasts Forever.
Chicago Inter ocean,
An Arab loves as none but an Arab can
love, but he is also nightly e1citable and
easily won. An Arab sees a girl bearing
water or brushwood, and in a moment, al
most at glance, is as madly in love as if he
had passed years of courtship. He thinks
of nothing else, cares and dreams of nothing
else but the girl he loves; and not infre-
quently, if he is disappointed in his affect
ions, he pines and dies.
In order to commence his suit he sends
for a member of the girls tribe who has ac-
cess to the h arem, and, first insuring secrecy
by a solemn oath, confesses his love
and entreats his confdant to arrange an in.
terview.
The confdant goes to the girl, gives her a
flower or blade of grass. and says: "Swear
by Him who made this flower. and us also,
that you will not reveal to any one that
which I am about to unfold to you.''
If-the girl will not accept tho Proposal
she will not take the oath, but, nevertheless,
keeps the matter perfectly secret from all.
If she is favorably disposed to the match
she answers: 'T swear by Him who made
the flower you hold and us, and the place
and time of meeting are settled. These
oaths are never broken, and it Is not long
before the ardent lover becomes the happy
husband.
