it is possible the laborer should not lack
the means of decent support for himself
and his family; he should not be over
burdened either in weight or time of
labor; be should be treated as rational
and moral being, with all respects due
bis human dignity. His remuneration, if
diminishing in periods of depression,
should increase in periods Of business
prosperity. Industries which allow some
proflt-sharing, which secures the laborer
from want in sickness and old age, gain
strength 10 themselves, while comforting
the workingman. And as to some means
Of prevention of strikes and dangerous

SHOOTING AFFRAY.

A shooting afTray in which Kelley,
the colored barber at the Huckins
House, and Bray, negro employed
in the Office of the Pacific Express
Company, here, were the principals,
took place, in the rooms occupied
by the former, over Liparis barber
shop, on West Broad Street, at 8
o'clock last evening.
Details of the affair, as gathered
by us, are as follows: The fact
was developed some time since that
Bray was party to an intrigue with
Kelleys wife, which caused tenn
porary separation between the lat
ter and her husband. Friends in
tervened, however, and induced
Kelley to condone his wifes fault
and take her back to his bed and
board, the couple taking up their
residence over Lipari's on Broad
Street.
On yesterday it came to Kelley
knowledge that Bray had attempt
ed to force his (Kelley's) wife to re
sumo their former illicit relations
whereupon Kelley armed himsel
and, after giving it out that he
would leave town, concealed him
self in a room next to that of his
wife At 8 o'clock Bray appeared
and demanded admittance, which
was granted. He had scarcely en-
tered the room however, before
Kelley appeared in the doorway
and turned loose both barrels of a
shot gun at the intruder
The result fails to justify public
expectation, however, in this, that
Kelley had been foolish enough to
load his gun with small shot, and
his nerve proved unsteady, causing
him to "over-shoot" his game
Kelley was arrested by West side
officers, but released on his own
reconizance. He is a peaceable,
polite and industrious darkey, pop
ular with his own race as well as
with the white people of our city.

COUNTY PRISONERS ESCAPE.

A jail delivery, in which five of the
inmates of the Miller County jail Sc
cured their freedom was accomplish
ed in this city Saturday night, but
was kept so quiet that no inkling of
the affair reached the public ear,
until today
The delivery was effected by means
of wire key, constructed by the
prisoners, with which the cell doors
were opened. After gaining en-
trance into the corridor the
prisoners found little trouble in
breaking through the outer wall Of
the Jail, which is merely an old shell,
and utterly insecure.
Four of the escaping prisoners
were colored and one white. All
were under charge of grand larceny.
Three other inmates of the jail,
whites, refused to make use of the
opportunity afforded them for es-
cape, and remained in their cells.
Officers are in pursuit of the
fugitives and some hope of their
capture is indulged in.

BARTER OF WIVES.

A writer, given to the study of
undue subjects, presents the fol
lowing statistics on what is aptly
termed, the tariff on wives
In the earlier times of purchase,
a woman was bartered for useful
goods or for services rendered to
her father. In this latter way
Jacob purchased Rachel and her
sister Leah. This was Beena
marriage, where a man, as in Gene
sis, leaves his father and his mother
and clelves unto his wife, and they
become one flesh or kin-the wom-
ans. The price of bride in Brit
ish Columbia and Vancouver Island
varies from 920 to $40 worth of ar
ticles. In Oregon an Indian gives
for her horses, blankets or buffalo
robes; in California shell money or
horses; in Africa cattle.
A poor Damara will sell daught
er for a cow a richer Kahr expects
from 3 to 30. With the Banyai, if
nothing can be given, her family
claim her children. In Uganda,
where no marriage recently existed
she may be obtained for half doz
en- needles, or coat, or pair of
shoes. An ordinary price is box
of percussion caps In other parts,
a goat or a couple of buckskins will
buy a girl. Passing to Asia, we
find her price is sometimes 5 to 80
rubies, or at others a cart load Of
wood or hay A Princess may be
purchased for 5000 rubles,
In Tartary a woman can be OBJ
tanned for a few pounds of butter,
or where rich man gives 20 small
oxen, a poor man may succeed with
a pig. In FIJI her equivalent is a
whales tooth or musket. These
and similar prices elsewhere, are
eloquent testimony to the little
value a savage sets on his wife
Her charms vanish with her girl
hood. She is usually married while
a child, and through her cruel
slavery and bitter life she often be.

THE ASHLAND DISTRICT,

Today's issue of the Arkansas Ga
zette contains the following special
from the Seventh Congressional
District of Kentucky:
LEXINGTON, KY, June 10-There
has been much bitterness injected
into the Congressional campaign
from the very beginning, but since
Owens attacked Breckinridge
so bitterly in his Paris speech, this
feeling has grown enormously until
there are many cool headed men
who believe trouble Of a serious
character will take place here today.
The city is full of strangers tonight,
Evan Settle and his Owen county
friends having arrived here in large
numbers today. There will be s.
600 strangers in the city tomorrow
and as the feeling between the
Owens and Breckenridge factions is
at a white heat there is no telling
what the day will bring forth.
Nothing but politics is talked about
and the interest is very great. To
Judge by present indications the
opera house will not hold half the
people that will be here, and should
Owens attack Breckenridge in the
manner he did at Paris there is ev-
cry indication that there will be
trouble.
