GOING DOWN.

late. He does this because the peo.
pie tell him to. They can't trust him
to run the Government. In fact he
is in a muddle. He don't know
"where he is at u He isn't equal to
the occasion. After trying for thirty
years and finally getting full control
of the Government on the promise
that the Mckinley Tariff was to be
abolished, this slim promise is so dan.

a simple promise of such a change
is so dangerous, what might we not
expect with a fulfillment of that
promise If this country is in dan.
ger now what would save it if the
whole threat was carried out? If the
President would just say to the peo-
pie that there would be no attempt
to abolish the Mckinley Tariff it
would doubtless settle things and re.
store confidence. But he won't do
that. So he calls on Congress to
patch things up. Ex.President Har.
rrison says be is trying to drive u

he can drive the team, or whether the
team will drive him. They are all
on the down hill grade. Just see.

ABOUT the only sure things that
will happen when Congress meets are
the election of Crisp for speaker and
Kerr for chief clerk. The first is dis.
liked by Cleveland, and Kerr is not
in accord with the Pennsylvania
Democratic machine, but neither is
outside of the breastworks.

Tomorrow is the appointed day for
the civil service examinations by

originally anticipated that some high
functionary connected with the de-
partment would be present to con-
duct proceedings, and fears were en-
tertained that Rock Island did not
possess n hall large enough to con-
tain all who would flock in to take
the examination. But the course of
human events has altered things;
there is to be no distinguis func-
tionary present. according To last ac-
counts and the council chamber Will

Messrs. Driffil & Glenn have has
tened to secure the store now being
vacated by Will X. Johnson, the jew
eler. which they justly regard as one
of the lightest, brightest and most
conspicuous in the city. 1t is in the

they could not have hit upon a store
more suitable in every way for the
grocery business which they design,
which will embrace some special fea-
lures as well as the regular lines.
They propose to fit it up nicely and
crowd it with the best goods in the
market.
Driffill & Glenn don't want to
move" They don't see any partic-
ular use in doing so. They'd rather
sell the goods they have at the old
stand in the Harper house, and buy
more for the new stand. They pro-
pose to make their present stock
move itself, and with this object in
view they are making arrangements
for a grand clearing out sale, and if
low prices will sell goods the goods
will be sold. 1t is too early yet to

ming of the week they will be pre-
pared to make an announcement that

BARBARlAN's CRAFT.
Two African skiffs from the Upper Con-
go Arrive in This Port.

The big Allan liner Partisan arrived at
this port yesterday morning with a big
cargo and five cabin and twenty-four
steerage passengers, but her arrival did
not create half the stir that was occa-
stoned by two obscure crafts carried IN
her hold. They were African boats from
the Upper Congo, bound to the Worlds
Columbian Exposition. When unloaded
they were deposited in shed No. ., where
many people inspected them yesterday.
The boats are of different styles, and
illustrate progress which marine archl-
lecture has made among the Africans.
The most curious one is in reality large
raft made in the form of a. boat. 1t is
about fifteen feet long and three feet
wide. The bottom is square at each end
slightly turned up at the bow like
farmers stone drag. Then, on this
square Bottom are placed sides, such as
an ordinary flat bottomed boat has.
There sides meet at the bow, which is
sharp, and continue backward to q
square stern. Clumsy as it is in form
this boat raft is still more curious in its
material 1t is not made of boards or
bark, but of poles about three inches in
diameter. These are lashed together to
form both bottom and sides. Of course
the boat is not tight. It is simply raft.
But the poles are of peculiar punky
wood, which seems much like cork in its
lightness and consistency. The boat is
light and would be tolerably buoyant.
That it should be tight is not of great
importance to savage whose raiment
consists of string of beads.
The second boat is dug-out followed
from tree. 1t is about ten feet long,
two feet wide and foot and a half deep.
The stern is sharp and the bow rather
blunt. 1t is,a craft of the rudest de-
scription. The man who made it was
not particular, even, to get straight
tree, and the natural bend Of the trunk
produces crookedness in the sides of
the dug-out.
Each boat is fitted with a small sail.
Some of the officers of the Partisan
heard when the boats were put aboard
on the other side, that one or both OF
them had belonged to the African ex-
plorer Livingston. 1t would seem that
there must be some association of this
sort to warrant sending such rude craft
so far.

Portland people have been engaged dur
ing the quiet of the Lenten season, is an

disciples of Terpsichore from Boston

though given for the benefit of state
charity, the original announcement that
no soliciting of any character would be
resorted to, has been been strictly OBJ
served, and grateful public, who have
been bored and harassed by the craft
and devices of the ordinary fair, should

departure by their free and extended
