A clever and delicate compliment was
that paid by an American gentleman to
Washington Allston the well known paint
er. The two were dining together, with
other guests, and Allston was observed to
be looking at a picture hanging over the
mantel. 1t was "Falstan Summoning His
Ragged Army" and was not an especially
noticeable piece of work.
~ do not think you could do better your
self, +" said his host, aud the artist bowed
apparently well pleased. When he had
taken his leave, the son Of the house said to
his father:
"Iow could you tell Allston lie could not
have painted that picture any better?"
at is one of Alstons own" was the re-
ply. at was painted some years ago and
has been severely criticised"
And for that reason the artist must have
been doubly glad to hear it commended

No Inconvenience has been caused
by the scarcity. The dealers. however,

half OF the sugar ordered. A promi

Lowest Rates OF the Year to Chicugo.
At q recent meeting the rate to Chi.
lcago via the Pennsylvania Railroad
was definitely decided upon, and will
hold good during the remaining ex,
lcursions OF the peoples popular coach
series: $500 from New York, Sl7 00
from Philadelphia, Baltimore, and
Washington, and proportionately low
rates from other points on the com
,pany's division and branches. These
ties are the lowest that have yet beer
authorized, and their ultimate legality
has been brought about mainly
through the efroits of the Pennsylva'
mia Railroad Company.
The remaining dates on which this
remarkable rate will apply are October
18th. nth. and 2lst, from New York
and Philadelphia, and It'll 14th, and
I2lst, from Baltimore and Washington,
when trains will leave the several
Eastern terminals fully and comforta-
Ibly equipped with Pennsylvania
standard coaches, and all taking adj
vantage of these exceptional oppop-
ltunities are assured of being amply
cared for In transit. The arriving time
in Chicago, early the next afternoon,
lis on equality with the fast EXPRESS
trains schedule. and affords sufficient
time for selection OF accommodations
for the stay in Chicago.
The immense volume of travel now
directing itself towards the Worlds
Fair, and the rapidly approaching ter
mination of the Exposition influence
the company to place every induce
ment possible before the public. There
could he no better way devised to on
courage visits to the most marvellous
ly gorgeous exhibition the people oil
this generation has ever seen.

/ / have Just finished reading the let
ter of Rev. q. L Jefferson His Ideas
are un.Amerlcan, and his argument
places him in the position OF servile,
land am afraid too many leading
negroes are satisfied, as the Seward
class, and feel that that position is
rightly theirs becnuse of their former
servltude. But the American idea Is
never to be content until one has
reached the top round in the ladder.
| Rev. Jefferson tells OF the wonderful
achievements made by tho negro, and
yet he says tho negro is not lit to asso-
clate with white PEOPLE, that he does
not want absolute social equality
which 10 to say that he will be satisfied
to occupy second plaeeiin Republic,
whom the constitution Gays all men are
born free and equal, and that pursuit
of happiness shall not. be denied any

toll the reading public we are not suf'
lielently Amerieanlzed to desire these
rights. Is to say the negro Ia not capu-

States TO Observation-Disclosures a part Of

powers of the negro are hindered. md
that he will only. go so far and no

COST or LIVING IN PARIS.


Some Hints which May Aid Visitors In
Getting Along Economically and Well.
Among the meats, plain boiled beef, dry
and without gravy, costs cents. When
FURNISHED with vegetable, Its price ia 8
cents. Here there Ia curious manipula-
ton Of prices The 'garniture" OF meats
with vegetables costs but little extra, while
the vegetables served by themselves are
rather dear, Thus peas are 12 cents plate,
but plain boiled beef garnished with peas
costs only cents more than plain boiled
beef alone. To eat cheaply is therefore to
order garnished meats and avoid plates Of
vegetables sold separately. Thisis no great
secret, and nothing Is gained by it except
in the line of economy. The vegetables
used for garniture are inferior in freshness
or flavor, although they ara pel iectly good
