Town Robbers.

From the Atchison Champion.
There are lot OF political nincom.
poops in Kansas whose sole stock in
trade is in personal abuse OF every man
who has invested money and enterprise
in the state. Not long ago we heard
two of these fellows talking on a railroad
train. They were cursing the mer-
chants, the banks and the railroads.
They were 80 loud in their talk about
''town robbers that, upon arriving at
the station where we all got OF, We
made inquiry as to their names and
standing. One Of them, we learned,
was a farmer who loaned out to his
neighbors, upon mortgage security,
three Thousand dollars, and made oath
to the assessor, that his personal prop
erty did not exceed the two hundred
dollars exemption. The other was a
man under indictment for stealing hogs
from his neighbors. Their visit to town
was to attend meeting to resolve that
1--WE are on the verge, OF moral, political
and financial ruin" and that I've will
send you carload Of men to help sub
due the robbers rebellion" at Topeka.
OF course ''it takes all sorts OF folks to
make world" but we beg to state
that Kansas has more than its share Of
that particular kind Of material Occu-
patton alone does not make men good.
There are bad men in all lines Of bust
mess. but the town robbers as they
are called, need not fear comparison
with their loud-mouthed critics OF the
kind herein described.

From The Emporia Republican.
Justice Aliens dissenting opinion in
the Gum habeas corpus case is some
what remarkable. coming from an ssso-
ciate justice of the supreme court, and
8 man supposed to be possessed OF high
legal attainments One OF his principal
points was that he had heard republi-
can senator admit that the recognition
of the Dunsmore house by the governor
and senate made it the legal house.
Leaving out Of view, altogether, the fact
that every republican senator denies
that he made such an admission, it
seems strange Judge of the highest

the air In innumerable quantities
There are several ways Of doing this.
But the quickest way is generally
most desired. The store barrels are
placed where six, or more, feet of
space may be had below them.
A faucet is fitted into each barrel.
An open tub is set under the barrel,
and a sloping board. or several of
them, are arranged to lead fine
stream of the cider down these boards
into the tub. To lessen the time
still more, two Of these tubs may be
used, one below the other so rs to ex-
pose the cider twice as long to the
air. The tub should be large enough
to hold as much as will flow in twelve,
or twenty-four hours, and when it IS
nearly filed, the partly made vinegar
is carried or pumped up into the bar
rel again. In this way, with a tenn
perature of so degrees Fahrenheit,
good vinegar is made in three or four
days, and when barrellcd or put in
suitable close vessels, it will keep i'm
proving in strength for years. This
method is shown in the annexed H.
lustration- Fig. l.
For a large quantity of vinegar an.
other method, but on the same princi.
pie with larger exposure to the air,
may be used. This consists of Sc
ries of watts placed one below the other
Gig. z. so that the LIQUID may run
from one to the other into recep-
tacle at the bottom. The intention
Is to have the greatest possible ex-
posure Of the liquid to the air. This

Is secured by filing the watts with
beech shavings or birch twigs, through
which the liquid trickles slowly. Air
is circulated through the watts by
means Of holes bored near the bottom,
just above the level of the pipe
through which the young vinegar
flows into the next vat At the top
of each vat there is board pierced
with holes above the shavings, and the
LIQUID flows in thin streams down
through the holes.

Making Vinegar.

Vinegar is a weak solution Of acetic
acid, which is produced by the action
of minute vegetable germ on the
sugar contained in the liquid to be
acidifled. This germ changes the
sugar into alcohol, first, and this by
further action becomes acetic acid.
The germs when accumulated into a
mass appear as kind Of soft jelly
like substance which is found in the
vessels in which vinegar has been
made and kept, and is commonly

LYnchers and LYnching.

The report of the killing of many
lynchers by the military force called out
in Virginia shows that there is one region
in the south alive to the Importance of
this, and with the resolution to teach the
bloody lesson that we fear alone can be
effective. Unfortunately, however, even
in this case the display of resolution was
only transitory, and the lynchers claimed
their victim within "a hours. But while
all this is said it would be wrong to
omit a word as to the imbruted charac-
ter of the portion of the population of
the south with whom these lynchers un-
dertake to deal. Nothing can excuse
their act, and it is fearful mistake in
every point of view. But the disregard
of life on the part of many of the colored
1nen of the south and the savage passion
they evince in other respects are social
evils that call also for serious attention.
In addition to the crimes against women
there, it is a terrible fact that there are
negroes who murder constantly for
money, even in small sums, and appear
entirely destitute of moral sense One
has to be in the south to know the ex-
tent to which this prevails; few at the
north realize it. There is call for mis-
sionary work among this class that is
louder than that which comes from any
other heather on the globe, and the more
intelligent colored people themselve
may well turn their attention to it,

SALMON A CENT EACH.
Cheap Food For the Poor on the North
Pacific Coast.

Cheap Food For the Poor the North
Pacific Coast.
Probably hunpbacked salmon were
never cheaper or thicker in Tacoma than
they are right now. All sizes, from
three to six pounds, are selling for a cent
per fish. A batch of 107 was sold to an
enterprising expressman yesterday for
81. About $500 fish were brought in dur
ing the day by fishing boats. The fish ped
dlers came down in force and loaded up
their wagons and started back up town
singing: Fresh fish herel Five for a
nickel"
The fish, which for the past two weeks
have been playing in schools around in
the bay, are now beginning to go up the
river and the creeks. Their meat on this
account is not. as good as it has been
heretofore. Fishermen say they will
soon disappear up the streams, and the
silver salmon will put in their appear
ance. Two or three Of the boatloads
brought in yesterday were caught in the
channel of the Puyallup river. The diff
ference in the meat of those and the meat
of the ones caught out in the bay could
be plainly seen. The meat becomes
winter and is less firm.
The silver salmon in turn give way to
the hideous dog salmon, which will not
appear for several weeks yet.-Tacoma

LIZZIE BoRDEN'S HOME.
1t Is Now Near the Fashionable Avenue of
Fall River.

Fall River.
The new home of the Borden girls on
French street is not on the best street in
the town, but it is in good neighbor-
hood and near the most fashionable ave-
nue.. 1t was occupied by man Of means
and good social position, who sold it be-
cause he wished to live where he could
enjoy the fine prospect that is to be had
from another point ON the same hill. 1t
is said that the sisters paid 81, 900 for
the place, and that may be the fact,
though the house scarcely warrants a
belief that such was a true figure.
French street is a modern thoroughfare
set with pretty villas, generally wooden,
in open grounds with showing of neat
lawns, few vases and flowers and plen-
ty of shade trees. The houses are small
and of the type of dwellings with which
most Of the smaller suburbs of this city
are built up. The nevs&Jrden dwelling
is yellow and brown frame house, with
the roof and porch in front and partly
on one side. The house might have cost
So, 600 or 81 coo to build. 1t isnot as fine
as several neighboring cottages. 1t is
said that the sisters employ only one
servant, as they did in the old house
down town.
Lizzie bears up extremely well after
her remarkable experience; indeed she
appears to Le as well as she ever was
and stouter and better looking The
case is different with the older sister.
The family affection, the horrors of the
murders and the long strain during Liz
zie's trial were more than her nerves
could endure, and she is nothing like the
woman she was. Her health is far from
robust, and she frequently has to give
up, or rather to break down.-New

SEEING IN THE DARK.
A Device Destined to Investigate the So
CaIledSPhenemena of SpirituaIism

CalledsPhenemena of SpirituaIism.
! a learned Italian, Signor Giorgio Finzi
of.Milan, sis engaged in perfecting pair
oflspec ctacles sbg gwhoso means the wearei
canssee in the dark The immediate use
destinedsfortthese revealing lenses is the
investigation of the SO called phenomena
of spiritualism, carried on usually in the
densest darkness, hence not little baf-
fling tothose esrnest students of psychical
marvels who wish to get at the truth in
the chaff blown mass which million
apparently sane Americans, to say moth
ing of people of other nationalities, pin
credencesto.
With the new lenses and their cleo
trical magic the Investigator may sit
down to join hands with believers or I'M
believers, and slipping on these specta-
cles see unseen all that is going on, and
while helping to dissolve humbug in the
light of truth may get glimpse of some
thing not'wholly to be classed as hum
bug-of phenomena on the plane of nerv-
GUS revelation at least. Some examples
of things as yet beyond scientific expla-
nation have been encountered by psy-
chical researchers in the different coun-
tries of Europe of late, as well as by Pro-
fessor James and other students of these
matters nearer home.
But apart from its immediate use in
this department OF investigation, what
a pleasant prospect is opened up by the
idea of seeing in the dark at will merely
by putting on a pair of night glasses!
Belated householders can guide the
ready latchkey to its lair, doctors may
mix prescriptions ON their way to a sink
ing case, engineers can detect train rob-
bers in the dim distance, and all the un-
deserted terrors of lonely ways may be
banished forever by the fortunate pos
SCISSOR of these glasses. LEND me your
ears" will no longer be such phrase to
conjure by as now; it will be "lend me
your eyes," and-who can tell?-the time
may come when Mr.. Finzis electrical
lenses are fully perfected that if any of
us are in the dark concerning any ques-
ton whatever we may put on pair Of
these spectacles and see our way clear
before us.--Boston Transcript.

PLAYING WITH FIRE.
The Gospel OF Wealth According to Hon.
Abram s. Hewitt.

Abram s. Hewitt.
j The man who robs you of freedom of
action = that is, the right to acquire
property is the enemy of society. /
do not careinswhat form it is discussed.
Men may persuade themselves by sort
of sophistry that they have a right to
restrain their neighbor in the exercise
of his faculties and in the right to gain
an honest livelihood, but such a CON
clusion is against human nature. l
! know that / am created free, and no
man has right to restrain my free
dom of action. Only society as whole
is invested with this power. So while
men must combine together, must have
trusts and associations and trades unions
! and trade organizations, they are all
parts of a progress toward plan of
civilization. Yet, when they are abused
SO as to take away from any man the
natural right to do with his own as he
will, believe me, human nature may be
trusted to assert its inherent right, and
it does assert itself whenever the issue is
fairly made.
Now, lido not think the men who have
the great fortunes in New York are
doing their full duty to the community.
l say it frankly, but there are many
noble exceptions. / know of one man
in this city, q rich man. / mean by
rich man man worth sec, 100000. This

He deliberately said, II have got
enough" Every dollar of his income
beyond that which is required for very
modest support of his family is appro-
priated to public and private charities.
That man, Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt, has
a proper conception of his duty.
do not wish to preach what may be
called ''the gospel of wealth." but
know that when those who work shall
have educated themselves up to a COM
prehension of the fundamental princi-
pies upon which society rests--then 1
know that the rich man will be educated
pari passu and will recognize the fact
that as to this excess of income over any
ordinary requirements for comforta-
BILE or even luxurious life they are
public opinion, and in the next world to
God for the way in which the trust has
been executed.
What, then, is the remedy for the evils
which demagogues handle with such ad-
vantage to themselves and SO much dan
ger to the community? They are play
ing with fire. The remedy is education
first and thrift next and last of all asso-
citation together for the discovery of cor
rect principles, for the discussion of
grievances, for the representation of
wrongs to those in authority, for secur-
ing in the public halls of legislation men
who are fit to represent an educated
community and not as they are often
now, representing the worst element of
the community.
On education, thrift and association

ress of society, and / believe that under
this potent influence the evil incident to
