Colored People Barred, and the Definite Ar
ticle Not In the Name.
A curious circumstance in connection
with the recent granting of postoftice
TO White City, in Brevard county, Fla,
was the refusal Of the government Off
cials in Washington to call it "The White
City"-the name given to the settlement
by the colonists themselves, now num-
herring about 700. Sneh a thing had
never been asked before. so the records
showed, and Postmaster General Bissell,
who was personally appealed to In this
case, declined to establish a precedent
by granting an official use of the definite
article in the names of postofices.
This name-The White City--had been
selected for two reasons: First. in COM
memoration of the Worlds fair, where
Mr.. Louis Pho. the promoter, did his best
work in raising his colony, and, second.
because the population Of the town is
| composed wholly of white people. The
company will not sell any land TO ne
| groes nor are white purchasers permitted
| TO do so hereafter, and no negroes are
| employed in or about the city.
All labor of every description is done
by the colonists themselves, and it is
their boast that they will build up a
great city without the employment or
the aid of negroes. At the start hum
dreds of negroes discharged by the rail
road contractors after the completion Of
the East Coast line applied for work, but
they were told that they were not wanted.
Now the blacks steer clear of the place,
! and the colonists are very much gratified
at this. The experiment of establishing
a strictly white community in one Of the
states of the south will be watched with
deep interest all over the country.-New

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure In all its stages and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have

iy Resembling HLes MiserabIes"
A story has reached London from Rus-
sia even more heartrending in its essen
tiaI details than the story Of the hero OF
"Les Miserables." !" which it closely re-
sembles. Thirty eight years ago Rus
sisD lad, lS years old. Ivan Rykoff, who
drank too much vodka at a wedding
feast. entered church and carried of
tLe wax candles. Under the cruel laws
of those days he was condemned to the
Siberian mines. Several months later
he escaped after fearful adventures and
reached the city Of Tomsk befriended by
q farmer. secured the passport OF a de-
ces ,ed workman and became good citi-
zen. He married, prospered and became
locnlly prominent. Recently at family
reunion he told his wife and children the
story for the first time. The walls must
have had ears. Ten days later gem
darnle entered his bedroom one morning
and told Rykoff he was charged with es-
Gaping from Siberia. The gray haired
man turned pale. lis it trueY' asked the
officer. 1T is true enough, God be
praised" replied the trembling old man.
very well, then, you are my prisoner.
Rykoff dressed himself and went to
prison. BY the advice of his lawyer he
forwarded petition praying to be re-
leased. His plea produced an impression
on the officials, and Rykof was set at lib
erty, but only for few days. On fur
ther consideration it was decided to bring
him to trial. In court he related the story
fully and frankly, throwing himself upon
the mercy of the judges. Justice, how
ever, was inexorable, and the law was
allowed to have its course. Rykotf was
condemned to be taken back to the mines
Of Siberia and kept in penal seryitude
longer time than that fixed by the court
which tried him when boy. Before
leaving the prison where he is now con.
fined he is to receive q severe fogging OF
10 or so lashes. 1t seems incredible that

The Paris correspondent Of the Glas-
Cow Herald has been dwelling on the
strange taste for the horrible and grew
some which at the present moment char
acterizes the performances at cafe con-
certs in 'the gay city" The culminat-
ing point in this direction seems to have
been reached at cabaret just opened
in the Boulevard Rochechouart, which
goes by the name Of the Cabaret de la
Mort.
This grimly baptized place Of amuse-
ment is but a few yards distant from the
popular music hall known as the Gazette
Rochechouart, where rollickng fun is the
order of the day, and songs of too broad
description to suit the taste of Senator
Beranger are encored with indescribable
enthusiasm by an audience composed OF
the peculiar class of society to be met
with in the Montmartre district and its
surroundings.
Remembering the traditional respect
and yeneration in which the French hold
the dead, the correspondent was sur
prised to find it largely patronized. On
entering the low rooted house, the door
of which is ornamented with deaths
head and crossbones, visitor is some
what taken aback TO find himself in the
presence of number of ''croquemOrts"
(inutes), dressed precisely as they are for
a funeral. These are the walters, who
are forbidden to smile. to talk cheerfully
or to accept any gratuity, and whose
solemn faces, very suggestive attire, lit
up by weird green light, and generally
mournful aspect cast chilly feeling
upon one. in spite of the knowledge that
all is assumed.
There was, moreover, q very unpleas-
ant smell about the place, due, no doubt,
to the fact that the coffins which do duty
as tables are quite new. AT these collins
score or so Of customers were seated-a
few women among them-drinking beer,
coffee or liquor. The whitewashed walls
Of the room are adorned, as matter of
course, with suitable engravings, draw
ings or pictures. There are skeletons

day (the unlucky day of the week. the

right to visit the cellars beneath the caba-
ret. to which he is attracted by the infor-
nation that there he will see what be-
comes of his body after death.

The French village Laborer.

The material condition of the day
laborer Is much better than 1t was half

earn little money. AS rule, the
French laborer is sober. industrious
hardworking and thrifty, his chief aim
being TO save little money or to buy
land to leave to his children. AS a rule,
families are not numerous, and one rare
