A Sad Accident.

A Sad Accident.
Mabel, the twO-year old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. J. D. Sullivan, met
with an1accident on Sunday, which,
it now appears will prove fatal.
She was playing with large button
hook and fell, the point penetra ting
the roof of her mouth. A doctor
was quickly summoned, and after
receiving medical assistance she did
not seem to suffer seriously, yester-
day morning she was bright and
played about the house until noon,
when she was taken violently ill.
Now one side of her body is
completely paralyzed, and the attend
ing physician holds out no hope for
her recovery. She is slowly dying,
and the end is only a matter of time

Public opinion is Inclined to support
working-men in all fair efforts to
improve their condition, and
commonly looks with liberation even
on their excuses, knowing that
economical laws will in the end
correct most of them. Employers,
too, find their profit, as we'll as their
comfort, in agreeing with their work
men whenever it is possible, rather
than in resolute opposition But
when combinations Of men, whether
laborers or not, are formed and
governed for the one purpose Of
promoting private interests by disturb
ing the public peace, by bloch ,g the
ways Of commerce, by holding in
terror over their employers and the
community their power to do mischief,
the familiar law of conspiracy is
applicable, and must be invoked
against them. II the chief officers of
the great broolherh9ods Of locomotive
drivers and attendants are right in
their rtputed avowal- that these are
the real pu,p ,ses Of their unions, and
that unless they have the tight t.,
carry snt these ends their occupation
IS gone and they nav as vel dissolve,
then the sooner tie law 1t conspiracy
Is applied To them the better for the

1t is believed the applications for places
In the marine hospital service will not be
SO numerous after the doctors in the
country know that to get such an Office
they must pass an examination in the
common school branches, particularly in
geography and United States history.
This is an insinuation against the aver
age doctors ability to spell, which we
hurl back with scorn.
It is mentioned as a fact that the re.
public of Brazil has offered to pay all
the travelling expenses Of colored people
from the United States who desire to
settle in Brazil as colonists. They will
get their farms free besides, on the
homestead, plan after they get thers.
Here is a better chance for the black
man than the white man ever had in the
United States. The white people who
colonized America paid their own ex-
penses here and had to whip out the In
dams and establish government before
they could begin to really live. All this
has been done in Brazil long ago. If now
the negro has the grit to accept the offer
from Brazil and go there, he can amass a
fortune for himself. 1t is a golden op-
portunity to prove his claim to be the
equal Of the white man.

The boards of health of California and Arizona have wisely taken joint action to prevent the introduction of cholera. It is only by cooperation ol the various states and territories that proper quarantine and other regula- tions can be thorougly carried out. Cholera is likely to threaten the Unit ed States this year as it did last year. Already it has begun to spread abroad and in few months it is likely to ap- pear on our shores. But by the ob- servance of the necessary precautions and safeguards it may be entirely ex- ciuded.-L. A. Express.

Jones on Silver.

Senator Jones Of Nevada said to 8 New York Press reporter the other day th at he did not anticipate the re- peal of the Sherman silver purchase act when congress meets in the fall. "If the law is repealed,' he said, without something to take its place, you will see one of the biggest panics this country has ever experienced. If you undertake to shorten the supply of m 1ney in the face of the financial stringency that exists today, disaster will surely result. It is perhaps just as well that the international confer ence has been postponed to Novem- Der. By that time, perhaps, the ad- vocates of single gold standard will have learned some wisdom. The world is being treated to an object lesson in the present financial trouble that ought te bear good fruit. Let us hope so anyway"

SILVER AND INDIANS.
Arizona's Representative Dis cusses the Two VeXed
 Questions.
New York World.

Marcus \. Smith, the delegate 10 the House of Representative from Arizona, and who resides in the very suggestive town of Tombstone, has been in town several days. Smith IS an authority on silver and Indians. He is humorous speaker and every now and then shares honors as the House wit with the inimitable John Allen of Mississippi. Senator Pugh, ui Alabama. and Marcus Smith were discussing silver at tine Fifth Avenue, when the subIec, of the repeal of the Sherman act was broached.
 "I tell you, Senator" said Smith, "there is no use trying to conceal the fact that the act is largely responsible for ali the trouble We are having about gold. When it was being con sidered by the House I moved an amendment that instead of coining 4,50O,OO0 oun- ces of silver per month, irish potatoes be substituted. The friends of the bill jeered at me. And ye: silver is today just as much of commodity as murphies."
 That is true" said Senator Pugh, "aad l think people are beginning to realize it. It Is more than likely that free silver bill will be passed by the next congress. Should the president veto it perhaps a compromise will be reached. which tor the time being, at least, will prove satisfactory to the extreme gold and silver advocates"
 Delegate Smith says that he has been unable to find a good history ef the Indians. All the stories about them have ever read" he continued, "have contained great congregations. think ough: to know for l have lived with them for many years. To- day the people go crazy over the In dian as painted by Fenimore Cooper and other novelists. I seriously think Of writing book and calling it "The Indian as painted by Himself"
