Mexicans have been using a de-
coction OF black spiders as a cure for
typhus fever. 1t cured the fever
readily enough, because a patient
after taking it seldom had a chance
TO die OF the original ailment. There
was a strong prejudice in favor of
the remedy, but the tide has turned.
Intelligent people would as left die OF
fever as succumb to spiders.

figures are not so high. The foreign

A RARE oFFloE SEEKER.

Ho was Willing to Pay the President for
His Loss of Time While Considering His
Application.
New YoRK, April la Washington
correspondent teIesraphing his paper
says; Some office seekers are more in
genious than others, while some iniure
their prospects by indlscretion. To-
day letter was received at the white
house from an applicant for a small
postotIice. The writer evidently wanted
an appointment badly. He was u mod
est, evidently unsophisticated place
hunter, for in addition to Offering a
pToluse apology for botherlng the Pres
ident with such q tritling matter no
enclosed $40 note, In explanation
he said he knew the Presidents time
was occupied with more important
matters and il he stopped to consider
the subject in question he would prob
ably deprive the country OF his services
during the period so occupied. The
$40, 1t was explained, was to defray
the expense for any time lost by the
President insthe transaction. Private
secretary Thurber to whom tho letter
was referred, was at first disposed to
be indignant, lie finally concluded
that the applicant was perfectly sim
rere, but inexperienced. He therefore
returned the application and the money
to the sender with q little advice as to
the proper method OF applying for
office under the present administration.

Judge White, In n lengthy opinion
which goes over the whole ground OF
labor organizations, strikes, boycotts
and business conspiracios, says that
this was q combination against public
policy and 8 conspiracy under the Law.
lilo holds that employers have'a right
TO pay as high wages as they please,
and that nobody has right to try to
punish them for so doing.

breasted frock coat. he stands with one
arm raised in an oratorical gesture.
King Oscar OF Sweden is very sim
pie minded man. Whom ho went to see
the pope he kissed the holy father
on both checks. Such a salute was
quite irregular, long usage having es-
tablished tho custom OF kissing only the
pope's hand.
The London Oplician says that great

stances Shakespeare, Socrates, Locke,
Bacon, Milton, Goethe, Franklin, Napo-
Icon, Bismarck, Gladstone, Huxley, Vir-
chow and Renan.
General Malone, still the same quaint

other slouched hat in the country.
Professor L. L. Barnard, OF the Lick

A Question Of Translation.

Our English friends discover that we
erred in translating the Russian docu-
ments relating to the Boring sea matter.
However this may &c. we have not
made any mistake about the more i'm
portant fact that We translated into
good United States whatever rights
Russia had in tho region We got from
her by the Alaska purchace.
What is bothering John Bull is to
mako clear us against us title to that
which he never claimed as against Rus
sia, which Russia held and which she
transferred to us. Hero is where the
shoe pinches our Cousin John.

what 1t is capable OF il given halt

national capital is eighty thousand.
Their totnl wealth is $l7000.0OO, not

eighty.throe colored churches in the
city. three banks supported by the
race, one insurance company, build
ing association, twenty-thre0 colored
physicians, twenty colored lawyers,
schools with 1900 children enrolled
and $50 colored teachers, two colleges,
and 800 charitable aud secret organiza.

costlest residences arc owned by col.

In all probability the greatest mon
arch, as far as size goes, who rules in tho
world Is the king OF the Gilbert islands,
Teburimon, who weighs 500 pounds.

I'll proposed by the Central Labor
Union of Chicago that since the fair is
not likely to be open on Sunday, their
working week end OH Friday evening
and begin on Sunday morning, SO that
they may have Saturday to visit the
show. This is not IN entirely novel
proposition,
Tho French revolution swept away
Sunday and made n week Of ten days.
With returning reason came back the
old week with Sunday as tho day Of
rest. Tho scheme is not good one.
Tho Sunday opening question was
discussed in the Centennial time rs
now. The plea was made that tho OK
position should be open in fairness to
the working man. 1t was not open on
Sunday, and thcre was probably not
ono employed man in Philadelphia
who was kept away from the show on
that account
To the millions OF working men away
from Philadelphia it made no difference
whatever. They could not go to the OK,
position, see it and return home in n
day. So it will DO with respect to tho
Chicago fair. There arc good argu-
ments in favor OF opening tho fair on
Sunday, but the working man palavor
is not ono Of them. 1t is only pro.

between $1,000 and $1,000 and three OK

Congressman William L. Wilson, OF West Vir'
glnln, Il no longer heard OF rs a candidate t)r
speaker, aud II Is declared the President has "
lRsl sottled the matter In favor OF Crisp
This from the Washington CORE
spondent of the Pittsburgh Commercial
Gazette is and is not news. II is news
that Mr.. Wilson is no longer heard OF
as candidate for speaker, because he
has not been thought OF seriously in
this connection.
To do Mr.. Wilson full justice 1t should
be said that no probably has not
thought OF himself in this connection.
He may have contemplated a remote
contingency which would make it good
politics for him to begin to think OF
thinking OF himself,
MIR. Wilson knows, what has seemed
clear to everybody, that Speaker Crisp
would have something very near a
waik.ovor, and this without regard to
President Cleveland'a desire in the mat
ter. Mr.. Cleveland does not prefer Mr..
Crisp, but he does prefer to keep out of
a losing fight, as this would certainly be
If he woro to go into it.
There is another reason why Mr.. Viii.
son has not been looking to the speak
ership. The President wants him in
the committee on ways and means and
on the floor to champion the admins
tration tariff bill. II it had not been
for this Mr.. Wilson would have been
in tho cabinet, where his presence
would give the President more personal
satisfaction than ho derives from any
cabinet appointment no has made, La
mont's and Bissells excepted.
There nced BIO no speculations about
Mr.. Wilson. He is all right with the
President, who will fix him for lie by
giving him a judgoship before he goes
out OF Office.
