Randolph's Stormy Death.

The last days of John Randolph, of
Roanoke, are full of pathos. He
thought he was dying for years before
he did so, and when he was asked how
he. was he would reply: dying
dying dying I" He was tyrannical
and dictatorial to the last, and he
fought with his doctor on his death
bed over the pronunciation of certain
words. His death occurred in Phil
adelphia hotel. A few minutes before
he died the doctor wanted to leave
him, but Randolph objected and his
slave took the key, locked the door
and put the key in his pocket. With
his last words Randolph declared that
he wanted his slaves freed, and he
kept the Doctor there as witness OF
his dying declaration. A skeptic
through life, he appreciated his condi-
tion when on his death bed, and among
his last words. was "remorse. He
was lying perfectly quiet, with his
eyes closed, when he suddenly reused
up and screamed out in an agita-
ted voice: 'Remorse remorse ! re-
morse p he then cried out: "Let me
see the word ! Get dictionary Let
me see the word - There was no die
tionary at hand, and he was told SO.
He exclaimed: "Write it, then Let
me see the word p The doctor picked
up one Of his cards labeled randolph,
Of Roanoke. "Shall I write it on
this ?" eyes; nothing more proper, "
was Randolph's reply. The word re.
morse was written on it in pencil and
handed to him. He looked at it a
moment with greater intensity.
"Write it on the back" he exclaimed.
1t was done and handed him again.
He looked at it with his blazing eyes.
"Remorse p he said, "you can have
no idea of it whatever; it has brought
me to my present situation-but |
have looked to Jesus Christ and hope
to obtain pardon He then asked
the doctor to draw line under the
word and told him him to keep the
card.
A short time after this his keen eye
began to dull, his powerful mind gave
way, and within two hours he died.

Address to the Colored People.

ATLANTA, GA, Oct. 4.-Bishop 81. M.
Turner, of the colored Methodist church
Of this State, has issued call signed by
himself and "by the approval of three
hundred prominent and distinguished
endorsers," addressed to "The Colored
people of the United States in Anguish,
Greeting" for convention to meet in
Cincinnati, Ohio, on November 2Sth, at
IL o'clock. Said national council is "to
review and pass upon our condition
patiently, impartially and to report truth
fully our knowledge of every person
murdered by mobs and lyrchers and
when and what for, with all documentary
evidence possible for the use Of the COM
mittee or committees as will have such
matter in hand" The address is based
on the "revolting, hideous, monstrous,
unnatural, brutal, shocking crimes charg-
ed upon us daily on one hand, the reign
of mobs, lynchers, fire fiends, midnight
and midday assasins on the other for the
purpose of crystalizing our sentiments
and unifying our endeavors for better
conditions in this country or as q change
of base for existence" The address states
that "no points or order raisers, cheap
notoriety seekers or hot sand s1uallers"
arc wanted that the matter is TOO solemn.
Each delegate who expects to ccc1py the
floor is urged to prepare his speech
before leaving home so that be can not be
misrepresented or thwarted. The address
concludes: "Let no one who uses ardent
spirits dream of attending unless he can
promise his God that he will not touch
the accursed cup while the council is in
session for 1t will be no place for unbal-
anced men. States or ommunities or

Last year the Brazilian crop Of coffee
was the largest ever produced. Over
500, 900 worth of 1t was sold in Europe
alone, to say nothing Of the sales in the
United States. Money was plentiful and
the prospects of the crountry were bright.
A sudden change has been wrought by
the failure of this years crop. The har-
vest has amounted to less than one-eighth
of that Of last year, with the result that
very many people are in pecuniary
straits. There is at present such distrust
that money is hard to get. Such Is the
stringency that in Rio the tickets of q
local street car line, in the absence OF
small coins, circulate as money and are
gladly accepted in payments.
"A case involving the legality of a
marriage between negro and a white
woman was tried recently before Judge
Lea at Little Rock, Ark. No matter
what his decision proves to be, an ap--
peal will be taken to the Supreme Court
of the State, as a final adjudication of the
question is desired by the auth critics.
Ten wears ago one Thomas Dodson, ne
gro of Little Rock, and white woman
procured a license and were duly mar
ried. They had always lived together
as man and wife until their arrest recent
" for unlawful cohabitation. Their case
is that of great many couples in the
State. Section 1853 of the Arkansas
Statutes says: Gall marriages of white
persons with negroes or mulattoes are
declared to be illegal or void" This
statute was passed in 1885, and was car
ried into all the digests until 1874, when
it was left out by Judge Caldwell and
CAN'T on the ground that it was in con-
flict with the Constitution of the State
and the 14th amendment to the Federal
Constitution. In 1884 Judge Mansfield,
in compiling the law, restored 1t.

Cure For Snake Bites.

From time to time I see in the papers
recipes for curing the bites of poisonous
snakes, recommended by. medical and
other people. In California, where I
come from, we have occasion at times to
treat animals for the bite of the deadly
rattlesnake. I have see two kinds of
herbs used, one is called in Spanish "la
galondrina" (the swallow, growing In
the most arid plains; and the other is the
rattlesnake weed. Both are very effect
i've, but it is not every one who can tell
them, even when at hand. What know
from my own experience to be an infal-
lible cure is the gall Of the snake itself.
One drop of it on the wound will effect q
cure, even when infammatio Is far ad-
vanced. have seen dog whose head
had already swollen to twice its natural
size, and it cured him almost instantan-
eously. The gall may be preserved In
alcohol, or even dried, requiring in the
latter case only to be moistened even
saliva alone between two stones will do.
Il have seen case of this kind.) If pre-
served in alcohol, of course, the whole
bag of the gall is put into the liquid en-
tire. Iftrue Of the rattlesnake, and, as
said before, 1t ts infallible from
my own experience, it Is probably true
it not be true In the case of the rabies,
that the gall of the animal would cure the
bite?
When at college, in London, the teacher
in French, who had reen Spahis in AL
giers, assured me that the Arabs cured
the sting of the scorpion by MASKING it
and applying 1t as poultice to the
wound. This have never seen tried, how
ever.-E. F. De Cells, in Scientific Am,ers-

Anti.Tillman Beer.

To the Editor of the State: The follow
ing receipt to make an excellent article
of lager beer from sorghum or cane syrup
will probably be highly appreciated by
MANY of your readers, as it is cheap,
easily made, and very wholesome.
Take two ounces of hops (Which you
can get at any drug store for ten cents)
and make, tea with one-half gallon OF
rain water or soft spring water. After
infusion and slight boiling, strain the
LIQUOR. Take one quart Of syrup to
every gallon your keg holds and mix 1t
with three quarts Of soft water; train
water is always preferable; y take two
Yeast cakes such as are used to raise
bread and dissolve them in lukewarm
water. The usual quarter beer keg holds
seven gallons. Put all the ingredients in
the key and roll it about 80 as to thor
oughly mix the contents; then bung up
tight and place the keg in warm place.
In forty-eight hours, il kept warm, (say
back of kitchen stove or near fire
place. the beer will be ready for tapping.
The result will be good, strong lager
beer, it will foam like lager beer, 1t will
look like lager beer, it will taste like
lager beer, and the drinker will say that
it is lager beer-and 30 it is with the only
difference that the sugar is taken from
the syrup instead of from the 20 alt.
The beer is very wholesome and cheap,
costing about ten cents per gallon.
Any body can make it for his own use
without interference with the United
States exercise laws or State laws.
I am not quite sure that His Excel
lency, the Governor, will approve of my
giving you this receipt, or if he will be
grateful to you for publishing it but
your readers will be pleased If they try
It. C.. B. WARRAND.

A Cow For Sale.

Some years ago in a very rural dis
trict, a farmer had a COW for sale.
Now, as there was no weekly paper to
advertise in, it was the custom Of the
vicar to give such notices out to his
congregation on Sundays. So the
farmer thought he would so to the
vicar and get him to advertise the cow
in church.
"Yes," says the vicar, "but you
don't come to my church. -
And they struck the bargain that
the vicar should advertise the COW,
and the man in return should go to
church. Now, unfortunatel y, the
man was very deaf, and on the Sun
day following, when the vicar gave
out the banns of marriage between Jo-
seph So-and-So and Sarah So-and-So-
a rather unusual incident, for they
seldom had a wedding; the farmer
took it for granted that the vicar was
giving out particulars of his COW, and
shouted out:
"You may as we'll say, while you
are about it, that she is most gentle
creature, entirely free from vice, and a
great eater.
