Union County was carried by the
independents two years ago. 1t is
therefore remarkable TO read that
Capt. Lowe, Bilou Hills, an indie
pendent party eXponder, vas un-
able to get up a public meeting at
Elk Point last Friday. After the
best efforts were made only half a
dozen were round up. Afterward
Low was heard to remark that at
bats the devil the farmers don't
come out to hear these vital questions
disCussed.' Low was more than
half right when he said it "beats the

France may have to take seriously this
ugly black brute and wipe him out He
warned France that if she wanted to
fight him he was ready to pit his little
pocket handkerchief kingdom of Daho-
mey against the whole French nation.
He has $1,000 warriors, 5000 of them
the ferocious Amazons, who are the
worlds phenomenon in these closing
days Of the Nineteenth century.
Behanzin is enraged because he sees,
as the Indian of America saw 200 years
ago, the white mans civilization closing
in on him and forcing him to adopt its
ways or pressing him to extinction. The
proximity of the white man means to
Behanzin that he can no more make
bloody raids on the tribes around him
for the purpose of capturing slaves to
sell to the traders. 1t means that he
can no more beLead or torture whom he
viii and that he can no longer offer hu-
man sacrifices. Behanzin has therefore
grown desperate. and moves on unwit-
tingiy to his own destruction.
England proposed to France to enter
into convention whereby these two ma
lions should prevent, as far as possible,
the sale of firearms to Behanzin. But
his soldiers are already equipped with the
best modern rifles of German make, so
that the action of France and England
might have little effect. It is unfortu-
nate indeed that savages can always OBJ
tain from the white man both firearms
and 6rewater to an unlimited extent.
The trade in these is the first to be
opened and the last 10 be suppressed.

Marriage and Working Women.

In London one-fifth of all the women
between the ages of thirty-fve and
forty-five are single. In all England
one-sixth Of such women are single.
This being so necessarily, apparently,
since there are not men in Great Brit
ain to go around to provide husbands
and maintenance for them. Clara f..
Collet, writing in The Nineteenth Cen
fury, urges that some systematic pro-
vision should be made whereby they
may earn their own living and be indie
pendent. After the age of thirty-fve
the chances are.almost certain that they
viii never marry.
Miss Collet finds rather curious fact
in the course of her investigation. 1t is
that the expectation Of marriage really
works against girls industrially. II
they look forward to getting husbands
to support them, they may perhaps work
indifferently a few years, merely for
enough money to buy clothes and fur
nish pocket money. They do not take
pains to learn anything well, because
they expect soon not to be obliged to
earn money at all Many Of them never
marry. They have not trained them
selves to any occupation, consequently
their 10th after life is a pitiable one.
The remedy, Miss Collet says, viii be in
carefully training all women Of the
poorer and middle classes to some oc-
cupation. She writes:
II any one objects that women who are in
tensely interested In work which also enables
them 70 be self supporting are less attractive
than they would otherwise be. l can make no
reply except that V expect . hundred women
70 devote their energies to attracting ffty men
teens slightly ridiculous.

"Man lives by admiration" and the
Indian can admire. His favorite tale,
listened to with ever fresh interest, is of
hero who would not enter heaven if
his dog were excluded. He has placed
among his gods an English general who
was both true and brave, and heard
from East Indians of differing views
how, comparing European races, they
placed the British highest. They ad-
mired their devotion to principle. "The
British are the only foreigners who die
for what seems right" But the same
men, criticising what they admired for
its want of tenderness and sympathy,
often added, 1.-The British, and espe-
cially the women, keep themselves aloof
and ALLEVIATE the admiration they might
hold. Nineteenth Century.

An electric storm at sea is one Of the
alarming experiences TO which mari
ner is exposed, but as a matter Of record
it is one that is least fruitful in disas-
trous results. As a rule few precau-
lions are taken to guard against astroke
of lightning, especially in the merchant
service. Ships Of war are usually fitted
with lightning conductors, precaution
made necessary by the explosives stored
away in their magazines. But these
safeguards are seldom seen on a mer-
chant vessel, and judging by the ex-
IRENE rarity of the cases where they
have been struck, Jacks claim that he
is safer on the ocean than on shore dur
ing an electrical disturbance must be
admitted.
1t is a well established theory that one
caught in thunderstorm should not
take shelter under tall tree, especially
if it stands in a clearing. Why light
ming should strike an isolated piece of
timber on shore and spare it after it has
been converted into a vessels mast is
yet to be satisfactorily explained. New
York Times.

A Large Germ an Castle.

The Castle of Heidelberg is the larg-
est in Germany. 1t stands $3.50 feet above
the Neckar river, and was occupied as a
castle as early as 1894 A. d. In cellar
in one corner of the ruins is the famous
"tun" or monster cask capable of hold
ing $4,000 gallons. This was for the
storage of wine used by the nobility who
dwelt in this castle. 1t is believed that
the Grand Duke of Baden will abandon
the idea which he recently entertained
of attempting TO restore" the ruins and
convert them into a modern palace

THREE DOVES.

Seward at morn my doves flew free;
AT eve they eireled back TO me.
The first was Faith, the second Hope,
The third-the whitest-Charity.
Above the plungipg surge's play
Dreamlke they lowered day by day.
At last they turned and bore to me
Green signs Of peace through nightfall gray.
No shore fOrlOrn, no loveliest land
Their gentle eyes had left unscanned,
Mid hues of twilight heliotrope
Or daybreak fires by heaven breath famed.
Quick visions Of celestial grace
Hither they watt from earth's broad space,
Kind thoughts Of all humanity.
They shine with radiance from Gods face
All, since my heart they choose for home,
Why loose them-forth again to roam?
Yet look; they risel' With loftier scope
They wheel in flight toward Heavens pure
dome,
Fly, messengers that find no rest
Save in such toll as makes man blesti
Your home is Gods immensely;
We hold you but at his behest.
