Fort Logan-"To Put Down an

DENVER, Colo, March 16-Matters
are decidedly warlike at the armory
on Curtis street. The militia assem-
bled and made ready to march on to
the City Hall yesterday afternoon.
The armory holds considerable stores
of ammunition, but it is believed no
orders have yet been issued to use any
deadly missiles. At the City Hall
over 100 patrolmen are on hand
awaiting the attack.
GUARDING THE CITY HALL
The building is guarded at every
point and great crowd of idle men
swarm about the streets in the vicin-
ity of the hall. Chief-of-Police Stone
stated yesterday morning that he
wOuld hold the hall against all attack
if it took dynamite to do it. Police
commissioners are in their offices pre-
pared to resist all efforts to dislOdge
them. The sheriff is awaiting orders
frcm Judge Graham, of the District
Court, and the latter has declared
that he will await the moment when
the militia attack the hall before he
will move.
TO LYNCH THE GOVERNOR.
A call for mass-meeting is being
circulated to organize cOmmitte Of
safety, and this means an attempt by
mob force to capture the Governor,
against whom the most inccndiary eX-
pressions are heard upon every side.
While it is probable that no violent
action will occur, the possibility of
mob violence is imminent, even to
the extreme act of an attempt to
lynch Governor Waite.
The attorneys of Police Commission
ers Martin and Ore have submitted to
the counsel for Governor Waite a
proposition to submit to the Supreme
Court the question of the right of the
Governor to call ont the militia
unless requested TO do SO by the
sheriff.
TROOPS ORDERED TO MOVE.
The sheriff has been notified that a
company of militia has started from
Colorado Springs.
Late yesterday evening Gov. Waite
made Il requisition upon General Nc
Cook, commanding the Department.
for troops from Fort Logan .sto put,
down an inSurrection." The General
issued an order for five companies to
move at once.
QUIET TODAY.
DENVER, March 16.-The situation
here teday is quieter. llostilities
have been suspended to await IL pend

Waite and Gen. McCook.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to 500 per Acre.

The Pacific improvement Company has re.
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres Of
land in the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose OF promoting subdivision and settle
ment This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and Is offered at
from SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, 80, 12o. 100 and 500 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will bc sold In
subdivisions, as above Indicated by the pay
ment of interest only FOR three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is TO be paid tor three years. and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal animal installments, with in.
terest at the rate of z per cent. per annum.
making payments extending over period Of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality ct SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices TO CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination Of the land
subject OF this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at SO an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
Of these lands to actual settlers result easy OF
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement IN smaller quantities and its devotion
TO diligent husbandry.

Importation ofslaves Into New Englan,

importation ofSlaves Into New England
In the sixteenth century the system of
slavery was fast disappearing from West
ern Europe, as being inconsistent with
their duty for Christians to hold Chris
tians as slaves. But this charity did not
extend to heathens and intidels! In the
latter part OF the seventeenth century the
african slave trade was considered the
most profitable part of British commerce.
New England naturally followed The lead
OF older countries, and her exchange, for
humanity, of rum, molasSes and other
commodities acceptable on the Guinea
and Gold coasts began. Ia 1858 Samuel
Maverack of Massachusetts, bought Atri-
can slaves, and in 1850 "a neager maybe
25E'' appears in an inventory in Hart
ford. Ere long every well-to-do family
had its quota of negroes for necessary
domestic service and labor on the plan
tation" OF the Northern agriculturlst, not
in large numbers, as later on the cotton
plantations OF the South, but one or two,
or even seven or eight, in family.
The slaves imported were of various
colors, tribes and physiognomies. Some
were Jet black, with features approach
ing those of the European; some were Of
a tawny yellow, with Hat noses and pro-
iecting Jaws. These latter, coming from
the delta of the Niger, were noted for an
indomitable capacity Tor endurance, and
therefore esteemed the best slaves. A
few Mohammedans, among whom were
occasionally found persons of some edu-
cation. who knew Arabic and could read
the Koran. But the great mass were
narans, in a condition OF gross barbarism.

Parsee Funerals.

The Parsees.will not burn or bury their
dead, because they consider dead body
impure, and they will not suffer them
selves to deile any Of the elements. They
therefore expose their corpses to vultures,
a method revolving, perhaps, TO the mag
nations, but one which commends itself
to all those who are acquainted there
with. And, after all, one sees nothing
but the quiet, white-robed procession
(white is mourning among the Parseesl
following the bier to the tower in si-
lence. At the entrance they look their
last on the dead. and the corpse
bearers-a caste OF such-carry it within
the precincts and lay it down, to be
finally disposed of by the vultures which
crowd the tower. Meanwhile and for
three days after the priests say constant
prayers for the departed, for his soul is
supposed not to leave the world till the
fourth day after his death. On the fourth
day there is the Uthanna ceremony,
when large sums Of money are given
away in memory of the departed. The
liturgy in use is a series OF funeral SER
mons by Zoroaster. OF superstitions the
Parsees have had more than they retain.
Connected with burial is the popular
conception as to the efficacy of dog s
gaze after death. Dogs are supposed to
guide the souls of the dead to heaven and
TO ward off evil spirits; hence 1t is Gus
tomary is lead dog into the chamber of
death that he may look at the corpse be-
fore it is carried to the tower.

IT is one of the ludicrous things of the
time that the most distinguished Latin
scholar of the world and one of the
gravest and most serious men of the age.
is the author of one of the most ridicu-
lously funny comic songs. Professor
George Martin Lane, who for many years
has filled the Pope chair of Latin at Har-
ward. has just retired because of old age.
He is famous for his classical learning
and as author of the college song, 1.-THE
Lone Fish Ball" Of course the song was
the product of his youth, his first days in
the faculty, but it is said the venerable
scholar takes exquisite pleasure i'll re-
calling the circumstances and merry oc-
casion under which he dashed off the
ditty as a joke upon one of his colleagues
of the faculty.

THE Edinburgh RevieV presents the
question of wages and improved ma
chinery in a form that is notably clear
and understandable. 1t holds that i'm
proved machinery is at once cause and
effect of higher wages. Thus the better
the machine the more productive the
labor of the wage-earner who uses it,;
consequently the more valuable the serv-
ice to the employer. Now. then, the
higher the wages paid the greater the in
ducement to use more and more product
i've machinery and SO reduce expenses.
So that not only is labor employed in
connection with improved machinery
more highly paid, but the increased cost
is a powerful stimulus to further i'm
provement.

What is the Reason :?

Simply that Mrs. Briggs has
and is obliged to sacrifice this
place. Where is it2 1t is To-
Gated in Sacramento County,
on the American River, and
consists Of 191 acres, II miles
from the Sacramento and Fol-
som Railroad and 10 miles
from Sacramento. 1t consists
Of 100 acres all in full-bearing
nuscat grapes; has q residence
Of 7 rooms, good dryer for dry
ing grapes, and a water right,
which irrigates the whole
place.
This place was selected by G.
G. Briggs, who was consid-
cred one Of the best horticul-
turists in the State at his time.
He selected the best varieties of
raisin grapes and superin-
tended planting them. The
place has cost over $4,000,
and it cannot be duplicated in
this State. 1t must be sold
within 80 days. There is only
$4,000 required to be paid in
cash, balance can stand and be
paid out Of the proceeds from
the ranch.
There were over eight car
loads of raisins Of over "a, 900
pounds each shipped from this
place this year, besides the
large number that were sold
for the market. 1t is no eXag-
geration to state that an indus
trious, frugal man can 90 upon
the place and pay for it out OF
the net proceeds in three years.
Investigation will prove our
assertion to be correct. The
soil is as well adapted for rails
ms as any in this State.

The First Baronet.

The original making Of the first baronet
was. it appears. purely commercial
,ransactioT. The motive which canny
KING jamie Sixth of Scotland and First
of England had in view in the establish
ment of this new dignity was the settle
ment of the province of Ulster, Ireland.
A Accordingly every person created bar
onet obliged himself to maintain thlrly
foor soldiers in Ireland for three years at
the rate of eight pence sterling money OF
Enoland per diem; the wages OF one
z,-bSie wear to be paid upon the passing OF
tt,e natent. In return for this sum, which
an9onnted to about 81, 100, the party pay

nlainder of his heirs male. and preced-,
ence before all knights. except Anights OF
