FaDses Weaan's Career.
The Countess of Clancarty gave birth
70 . daughter . few days ago. The
countess was formerly Belle Billion. !
music hall singer. She married the pres
ent Earl Of Clancarty in 1889, when he
was Lord Dunlo. He sued her for di-
vorce in 1890, but the jury decided
against him. After the verdict he be-
came reconciled to her.
The countess presented her liege lord
ON Dec. 20, 1891, with twin boys, one of
whom bears the title Of Lord Dunlo. The
English society papers shortly afterward
reported that the same evening she tele-
graphed to . friend in Upper Hare park,
London: Nothing succeeds like success,

In DecembR a the following year the
countess was again heard from, bot this
tine she had come chopper while hunt
Ing with the hounds in County Galway,
where the earl had estates giving him
some $4,000 . year. While taking .
hedge her horse struck against that Of q
huntsman. the result being that she was
thrown and sustained severe injuries to
her arm. The countess was said ct the
time to be very fond Of following the
hounds, taking great pride in her hunt
ing horses.
On late the countess has become an
artist Of no mean talent. In the Cont
mental gallery there is picture of
Tigers Head" which is said to be very
fair example Of her work. She is said
to excel, however, as an amateur carica-

A Democratic Opinion.

from the New ork sun
In what he has to say about the reform
Of the tariff, Mr. Cleveland recognizes 1.-THE
emphatic verdict of the people, " but he is
very careful not to say what that emphatic
verdict was. There is not a word about
the constitutional limitations on the taxing
power Of the government, as affirmed by
the Democratic platform on which he was
elected. The generalities and half-truths
and solemn nothings which are so charac-
teristic of his rhetorical style are employed
10 hide the naked iniquity of his PROPOSE
ton that the platform shall be repudated
by the party, and that the Democracy shall
now engage in the construction of an avow-
eddy protective tariff, differing from the
Mckinley tariff in the degree of its Nc
kinleyism, but not in kind. The
personal note sounds as usual throughout
the message, swelling in the last paragraph
to an impressive acknowledgment of the
Presidents ''intense feeling of responsible
ity,' not only for his own share in the
management of the nations affairs, but
also for the doings Of the Congress.

A Problem in Mathematics.

= WI VIZ Wv TUE ITIUU0V-l
Mr.. Cleveland does not seem to grasp the
meaning of the treasury reports which he
submits. Regarding these, he says that
the estimated revenue for the current year
falls short of estimated expenses by S3S,-
100000. As the decrease in revenue for
only five months has been over S31, 900, 900,
the statement seems singulary out of place
in such state paper The present tariff
law, under Democratic conduct, yields less
by about $40, 600, 900 yearly than it did last
year, and the proposed tariff will cut off,
according to Chairman Wilson, about $50
600, 600 yearly from last years revenue, 1t
is not to the Presidents credit that he
avoids the problem thus presented.

W OrSe than Siberia.
Outrages on Negroes Told In the AFRO
American Congress.

Cincinnati Special TO the New York Press
If half the stories told by delegates to
the Afro American congress in session here
OF outrages perpetrated on the blacks in
the South are true, the horrors of Siberia
are not alone in the racial crimes of the
age. Delegates from Georgia, the Caro-
linas, l'ouisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi
relate that scores of negroes are shot down
in cold blood; that many are lynched:
that untold numbers are manned for life in
pure wantonness, and not a word of if
reaches the outside world. Such work is
not crime in the South. Crops of black
men are openly taken, and protest means
death, or at best the destruction of the
cabins in which the wretched creatures
live.
Drunken white men riding along the
road think it fun to shoot at negroes i'm the
fields. II is a common occurrence for ne
gro families TO hear bullets whizzing about
their heads, fired through windows bv
travellers on the highway. That is one
reason the blacks seek secluded spots in
which to build their huts. No negro is al
lowed to accumulate property in the rural
sections. If he raises more cotton than is
necessary TO pay his rent he wakes up
some morning to find it burned or gone.
