NOTE AND COMMENT,

There is one foe Japan appears to be unable
to cope with. General Cholera is proving
that he is no Chinaman. In the Orient plague
usually follows war, and this year the excep
ton to the rule is not in evidence.
The contest in Chicago is between the short
skirt and the bloomer. and the journalistic
dyocates OF the former are playing unfair by
charging that it is only homely and "risque'
women who wear bloomers. The tact Is that
by way of combination of the two dresses
is be found the only true road out of this
dress difficulty. Anything of compromise in
that direction is desirable to emancipate
women from the slavery of the long, sweep
ing and obstructing skirt for outdoor wear.
One reason of the anxiety of the English to
have Spain patch up her trouble with Cuba
is that the English fear Cuban independence
would have all influence upon many of the
British possessions, and lead some OF them to
demand release. Thus Australia and the Do
mtnion are not without the possibilities of
independence, and Ireland and India would
each be free. If they could, and at almost any
cost.
Figures will not lie, but in the case of Libra
rian Spotford they got badly twisted People
will not be willing to believe that Spoftord
IS dishonest or has done anything criminal.
His splendid reputation for uprightness
stands him now in good service
The Trustees have referred the street clean
ing problem to the Street Committee with
power to act. While the board cannot dele
gate its authority, in any such general way
at least, let us hope that the committee Will
act and that right promptly for assuredly
the board will not fail to ratify whatever the
committee may do in the premises.
DR.. Heine Marks of st. Louis is out in an
assault upon the bicycle. He declares that
violent exercise upon it results in enlarge
ment o. the heart, paralysis of the hands
from gripping the steering bar, and, worst of
| all, il destroys virility, and that those men
who ride to any extent cannot expect to be-
come fathers. But against this we have
other equally eminent doctors who take q
view opposite to this, provided moderation
is observed. Indeed they md the use OF the
wheel beneficial, if excess is avoided. Ii is
with this as with most exercise, OVERRIDING is
dangerous. Long continued exeriIon, even
when one feels easily equal TO it, and i'm
proper saddles will do injury. But there is
much of that which applies also to horseback
exercise and to rowing, boxing and even to
fencing.

There is an old French air,
A little song of loneliness and grief
Simple as nature, sweet beyond COM
And sad-past all belief.
Nameless is he that wrote
The melody-but this much l opine,
Whoever made the words was some re-
mote
French ancestor of mine.
Where long he lay-and why he lay
therein,
For conscience of sin.
I see his cold. hard bed;
I hear the chimes that jingled in his ears.
AS he pressed nightly with that wake
full head
A pillow wet with tears.
o, restless little chime
1t never changed-but rang its roundelay
For each dark hour Of that unhappy
That sighed itself away.
And ever, more and more,
Its burden grew of it's lorn self part,
And mingled with memories, and wore
Its way into his heart.
And there it wove the name
OF many a town he loved, for one dear
sake,
Into its web of music; thus he came
His little song to make.
OF all that ever heard
And loved it for its sweetness, none but I
OWNED the clew, that as hidden word,
The notes doth underlie.
That wall from lips long dead
Has found its echo in this breast alonei
Only to me-my blood remembrance led
Is that wild story known!
And though it's mine by right
OF treasure-trove, to rife and lay bare
A heritage of sorrow and delight
The world would gladly share.
Yet must I not unfold
Forevermore, nor whisper late nor soon,
The secret that few slight bars thus
hold
Imprisoned In a tune.
For when that little song
Goes ringing in nv head I know that he,
Ny luckless, lone forefather, dust so long,
Relieves his life in me.

Letter From South Africa. the Reputed Gold
Store House OF tnr worid.
During the past six months, there has
been an exodus of some moment from
the various mining fields OF the Upper
Peninsula for the gold mining regions Of
the southern part oi Africa. Several
miners from the Crystal Falls field have
joined the exodus. They were hired
under contract OF five dollars per day
Since their arrival in that iar-ofi land.
tho Crystal Falls miners have written
many glowing letters OF their SUCCESS
there. None oi these could he

while general hunger for the details Of
that roputcd Eldorado-ric than any
other gold field ever yet discovcrcd--has
seated itself among our people For
this reason, TmE DIAMOND Dull has
borrowed the accompanying letter from
a contemporary, which fully answers the
purpose.
The following Is the principal part Of n
letter from tho heart oi the gold fields
10 South Airica to Mr.. Henry M. Alex
nndcr Of Chicago. The writer. w. Fin
laysun Johnston, came 20 Chicago from
Scotland few years ago, bot did not
succeed ns he had hoped and migrated
20 Johannesburg a few months since.
He was highly respected while in Chicago
as a man whose word could bc depended
upon, and doubtless his account OF con-
dliions IN that iar-oif region, about
which 80 little Is known here, will Le
read with much interest. The matter
is one which il Of great importance TO
people bi the United States, not only for
lts hcnfing on the question Of gold supply
IN the luturc but because Of its influence
on the foreign market for our securities.
There is good reason 10 believe that the
freedom with which those securities nre
now bcing sold by British holders IL due

mcntr IN the stocks Of gold mines ia the
region in which this letter was written.
The offers 81 profit from the gold mines
arc so attractive that vast amounts 81

TWO MORE WRECKS.

Combination Of the Deadly Three"
According TO superstition, generally
prevalent among railroad men, a wreck
on a division Of road must be followed
bv two Others in order TO complete the
combination Of "thrce times and out"
before safety again attends their labors.
The wreck at Antoine, noted in these
columns last week, opened the series
With little time for suspense intervening.
however, the combination was com
pleted. On Friday night, bad rear-cnd
