The New York Tribune publishes a
rather sensational item of information
from "behind the scenes'' in the French
Senate. 1t is to the effect that M. Chal-
lemel-Lacour, the distinguished president
of the Senate, has been accused of wear
ing fictitious name. 1t is said that his
real name is Recoux, which he dropped
before he entered public life because his
grandfather, in whose honor he was
christened, was executed for highway

Judge Colt, of the United States circuit
court at Boston, has decided that
Japanese is a Chinese, in so far as the
law is concerned. Shebato Saito, native
Of Japan, and the first of his nationality
10 do so, applied to the court for citizen
ship. He was given hearing a month
ago, and until last Wednesday the Judge
had the case under Amusement The
question was whether Saito came under
the Chinese exclusion act, which forbids
Chinaman from taking out naturaliza-
ton papers. The judge concluded that
the japanese, like the Chinese, belong to
the Monaghan race, which race is not in
cluded in the term white persons of
the Revised Statute, hence the Jap's ap-
plication must be denied. This must be
very edifying to the Japanese, who con
slider It grievous insult to be mistaken
for Chinaman. The animosity between
the two nationalities is bitter, and Japan
ana China are now on the verge of war F;
nevertheless, our laws recognize no diff
ference between the people.

A bill before the Massachusetts legis-
lature prohibits the use of the words
"color" or "colored,'' as applied to per-
sons, in any official record of birth, death
or marriage, when the applicant requests
that it shall be omitted. THE intention
is to wipe out every shade of difference
between the races,n says the Philadel-
phia Ledger. The Massachusetts people,
it appears, are determined to haveit I'M
derstood what estimate they place upon
themselves.

A precis of the reassessment of railroad
property in North Carolina, recently com
pleted by the railroad commissioner,
makes a rather peculiar showing. For
the twelve months ending May 81 only
ten miles of new road were put in opera
ton, while fifteen miles of old road were
abandoned and the track taken up /;
nevertheless the assessment upon rail
road property has been increased $500, 600
Notwithstanding the years business of
the roads was exceptionally poor.

= A Characteristic republican "argu-
ment'' against the income tax is: 'The
congressional representatives from the
south are doing all they can to deprive
the north of its capital" This is arrant
nonsense. If every dollar collected from
the income tax, north and south, were APP
piled to pension payments, all of which,
practically, are disbursed in the north
and northwest, the amount would be
hardly more than drop in the pension
bucket.

The Pullman Car Company will make
no move to counterfeit the boycott placed
upon It's cars by the American Railway
Union, it is announced. Practically the
company has little interest in the strikes
that have been declared on the various
railroads for the purpose of making the
boycott effective The railroads are all
bound by contract with the Pullmans to
haul their cars, and if the roads fail to
live up to the contracts, they will be the
sufferers. No attempt has been or will be
made, at least for some time, to start up
the car works with new men. Mean
while the Pullman company will sit com
placently by and watch the travelling
public sit up all night in day cars and
the railroads and their employees fight.

Australia is greatly bothered just now by

Five years ago we had plenty OF money and

few sheritfs sales and no scheming poll

Alliance and the third party, money has been
locked up; prices. consequently went down,

Various stores, offices and shops
throughout the city have recently pro
vided against the sultry summer days by
putting up electric fans. Some of them
are artistic in design and models of sym
metrical mechanism. AS compared with
the fans of last summer, the fans of 1894
are markers of the great strides that
have been made in electrical application
in year. Last year half a dozen or more
fans were geared to a single motor, the
power being conveyed by unsightly over
head belts. This year each fan has its
separate motor, which receives the cur
rent through concealed wire That the
fans at the soda fountain are an
attraction will be testified to by the soda
dispensers. That they are blessing and
help man to forget that the mercury is
playing about the nineties, will be voted
by every one who sits for few minutes
in their grateful draught.

cantral's Representative.

the plan for the reorganization of the
Central railroad system, a synopsis of
which we publish this morning, is the
third that has been announced for the re-
organization of that property. The first
was in connection with the Richmond
Terminal system, and the second was
known as the Hollins plan.
This third plan will, in all probability,
be carried into effect. If we are rightly
informed it has the support Of all the i'm
portant interests connected with the road,
and is backed by some of the strongest
financial houses in New York.
All of Central's securities advanced
yesterday, showing that in New
York there is confidence in the
success of the plan. The fact that
the stock has advanced to is indicates
that there is belief that the stock will
pay dividend at some time not very far
in the future.
The physical condition of the property
is now excellent, and with good year for
business the Central would show surpris-
ing earnings. Those familiar with the
property are satisfied that with the re-
turn of prosperous times, and with
economical management, its net earnings
would be sufficient to make the stock
very valuable.
1t will be helpful to Savannah to have
the property reorganized. Being upon a
sound financial basis the road would
reach out in new directions for bust
ness, and improvements would be made
that would not otherwise be under
taken. The employees also would feel more
secure. Those of them who reside here,
and the number is large, would take steps
TO provide themselves with permanent
homes.
There is no doubt that the outlook for
the Central is much brighter. 1t is sin
cerely to be hoped that the worst of its
troubles is over, and that it is entering
upon a period of great prosperity.
