capped to the Naniws had been re
turned. He had not been directly
delivered to the authorities but put
ashore at the point where he had left
it. and the Government had had Off
GERS on hand to take him in.
MIR. w. G. Wilder was appointed
to the Military Committee in place
of Mr.. McCandlass, and Mr.. Allen to
the Foreign Affairs Committee in
place of A. Brown, and the latter
vacancy not having been previously
filled.
Mr.. Allen stated that the native,
into whose house a stray shot had
wandered, had come to him and
claimed $50 damages.
The President referred the matter
to Mr.. Allen as a special committee
to investigate. He thought the Gov
eminent was responsible for any
actual damage.
Mr.. Damon called attention to the
fact that the Government had paid
the damages to Music Hall and other
buildings occasioned by an uprising
in 1889.
Mr.. Emmeluth drew attention to
the fact that j. L. Kaulukou had
gone around with a list of names of
persons whom he claimed the Coun-
CHI had voted in secret session to
deport.
The President suggested that some
member of the Council might inter
view him.
AT 2:55 the Council adjourned.

BOMBAY, April Mir Khuda-
dad Khan, the Khan of Khelat and
Sovereign of Baluchistan, has muir
dered his Prime Minister and mutt
lated several of his advisers, and is
torturing many high officials, whom
he has imprisoned in dungeons.
He is supposed to have learned or
suspected that there was a plot
among his men of state to assassi-
nate him. The Indian Govern
ment has demanded that he at once
liberate the officials whom he is
torturing and give an expl anation
of his conduct.

II am in a peck Of trouble" re-
marked Mr.. G. Lavender, one of the
genial local officials of the East Ten
nessee.
"What is the matter ?" was asked
the Times man, for newspaper men,
like all good Presbyterians ought to
do, sympathize with everybody in
trouble, and keep everything they can
get, including Sunday.
"Well," he continued, "some kind
friend sent my little boy nice, round
William goat the other day, and that
Billy has been terror in that house,
hold ever since the fork OF his horns
protruded through the front gate"
''He was locked up In the hen house
among my fine Leghorns, and very
mystcriously the eggs commenced to
disappear"
"He was watched and that goat
would rear up to the nests and break
the eggs and lick up the contents Of
the shells, Willie the chickens them
selves would devour the broken shells.
"That beats anything l ever heard
Of, and l bought a load Of hickory
wood to-day, and in three or four days
| am going to test the juicy qualities
|of barbacued Billy, fattened on
cggs."-Selma (Ala.) Times.

ONLY ONE GROVES.
Mrs. Oleyeland Says She Will Not Name 8
Child After It's Papa.

A Washington special Of July oath,
says All of Washington has been
much interested during the past
months in speculations about what
might be going on and what was pos
sibly to be expected at Gray Gables.
And In connection with this discus
sion there has been an interesting bit
Of gossip floating about. 1t seems to
settle one question pretty definitely.
Whatever may occur at Gray Gables,
there will be no second Grover Clevc-
land in the world at the end Of the
summer. Mrs. Cleveland is quoted
by several of her friends in Washing
ton as having said to them that she
would never name a Child of hers
after her husband "There shall be
no second Grover Cleveland" she has
said. "There was only one George
Washington, only one Abraham Lin
coin. There shall be only one Grover
Cleveland.
1t is fact worthy of note that
comparatively few men in public life
have sons who are named after them.
The name Of James G. Blaine has de-
scended through two generations.
Yet it is easily believed that Mr..
Blaine would have been pleased if the
unhappiness of the scandal growing
out of his sons marriage and divorce
had not been so intimately associated
-doubly ssociated--with the name
of James 6. Blaine. Every man in
public life realizes that while he is
still active his son may grow into pub
lie life, too. This is sure to bring
about confusion Of indentity and a
mixture of mail. Some public men
have feeling that they want their
names handed down to posterity
through their sons. But a great
many more of them do not wish to
take the chances.

THAT MAN.

Do you see that man over in the
field driving pair of mules? Who
is he and what is he doing? He is a
farmes engaged in plowing. He is the
man that moves the world. II he
would 60 on strike and refuse to
raise crop for single year it would
produce more disastrous effect than
would result from strike of all the
brotherhoods of railway employees
and trade unions combined. He with
his glittering share, furnishes sub
sistence for all the brotherhOods and
everybody else, and if he should ''go
out" for some real or imaginary
wrong he'd paralize the commerce of
the world on sea and land, every To-
comotive would rust in its stall, and
cars would rust on the side track, the
song of the spindle and the hum of
the factory would be hushcd and 81
lent, and even the government would
be powerless to interfere. That man,
though intelligent, dresses in home
spun, and patiently tolls on, year by
year, bearing the ills he cannot shun,
and because he does not strike the
world moves on and the people have
bread to eat. And now just stop a
moment and consider how much more
our prosperity depends OH the
man with the mules than on the
dude his cane and waxed mustache.

UNDER THE Su YER SEA.
by SAMUEL MINTURN PECK.

Oh, to 80 down meath the sea,
Far under the purling waves,
Where bubbles In glee,
Like blossoms set free,
Fit over the emerald caves
And the plnk-lippcd shells,
Like glimmering bells,
Chime mystical spell
For me.
Oh, to go down,
Down,
Down.
Under the silver sea.
Oh, to 60 down meath the sea,
Far from the fever and fret.
Where feet never more
Grow weary and sore
And hearts never ache with regret
What peace were mine,
And dreams divine;
What bliss would shine
For me.
Oh to go down,
Down,
Down,
Under the silver sea.
Oh to go down meath the sea,
Into a luminous calm;
No Fate to fee,
So weird to dree
In that wonderful world Of balm,
Far under the foam,
Meath the crystal dome,
How happy my home
Would be.
Oh, to 90 down,
Down,
Down,
Under the silver sea.

1t is getting late in the season for
fish lies, but the Evansville Ind.)
Journal gravely states that the Ger
man carp fish will suck cows. a
dairyman in that city, whose cows
got water from carp pond, noticed
that they came up without a drop OF
milk In their bags. For long time
he was puzzled, but one evening he
watched a cow coming out of the
carp pond with 10 ID carp clinglng
to teat until she got nearly to the
bank, and on examination found that
the COW was sucked dry.

lectured at Monteagle, Tenn, on sun
Gle Toms Lost Cabin"
The report tells us that in the lee
ture he denounces the theory that
great problems will solve themselves
if left to time as worthy only oficow-
ards and imbeciles. He believes that
this question must be considered now,
and says that the time has come
when it will be considered by lectur-
ers but in the halls of Congress. The
negro will never rise above his pre-
sent conditions. There is no outlook
for him in the present or the future,
He will be barber, porter, waiter

holding OF our great country. The
plan of sending these people back tC
Africa with no knowledge of govern
ment, and so far away from the gov
ernment whose duty it is to care fo
them is barbarous and inhuman. Hi
idea is for the government to donat
some of its public lands for a negr
State, to be subject to the govern
ment of the United States. No whit

State, and every office shall be hell

have little flap. This can be torn
off or left intact, at the users will,

which means in English. "The post
man is not to deliver on Sunday the
letter bearing this stamp" This nov
city is intended to start popular ag-
