1t would probably be perfectly safe to
say that a considerable percentage of
the younger negro men at present in
this city on their way to Liberia are GO
ing to the new country with their heads
filled with dreams of political greatness.
There are, no doubt, several embryo pres
idents and scores of senators and con-
gressmen in the party awaiting the Horsa.
If any of. them get to be constables in
Africa they viii be lucky.

How the jingoists must regret that con-
gress isn't in session now! The firing on
the Alliance by that Spanish war ship
would afford them a fruitful theme for
splendid patriotic outbursts, and might
offer, also, an opportunity to touch up
the Cuban annexation sentiment. And it
would not be difficult to ring a recital of
the Virginius incident of 1873 into a dis
cussion Of the Alliance incident of 1895.
and play upon the war sentiment that was
pretty strongly felt in this country when
it was known that Capt. Fry and his men
had been shot TO death by the spaniards
at Santiago dc Cuba.

The New Orleans Labor Troubles

state of things. Fortunately for COM

trade in particular. il is no longer neces-
sary to send cotton abroad by way of the
Mississippi river. Twenty years ago il
was different, but to-day there are steam

A name that stands for a name;

To live as giving. through praise and

Why nIssem Wont Home.

When Mr.. Bissel left Buffalo to come to
Washington as Postmaster General for his
old friend and partner, Grover Cleveland,
says the Chicago Times-Herald's Wash
ington letter, there were three clerks en-
ployed in Mr.. Bisselrs law office, These
clerks managed to attend to all the routine
affairs of the firm for a time when the
earnings of the Office aggregated about
$4,000 a year. A few months ago Mr..
Bissell discovered while on trip To Buff
falo that no fewer than thirteen clerks
were employed in the chambers of his
law firm. "Whew," exclaimed Mr. Bissell
to one of his partners this looks like
prosperity. We must be taking in as
much as $4,000 a year"
Not So" replied the law partner, "Our
earnings for the last year fell below $780,
OO0."
LET me see" retofned Mr. Bissell
when we had three clerks we made So
600 per year and now we have thirteen
clerks and earnings of only $4,000 year.
When l get back to Washington / shall

with the labor of fewer clerks in this office
and have more money TO show for it,

If Mr.. Cleveland ever finished a hunting
trip without being the victim of some kind
of an accident-on paper-the occasion is
not at present recalled. Once. when he
went down TO the Virginia coast, the re-
ports had it that he was nearly drowned
in great storm, when the fact was that
he was snugly ensconsed in an arm chair
in the club house during the storm. On an
other occasion in Maryland, when he was
after ducks, it was reported that one or
more of his fingers had been shot Off by
the accidental discharge OF his gun, when
in truth his thumb had merely been
pinched by the gun hammer. Then there
was another story of a sprained ankle.
and a burly native carrying the President
for mile or two on his back, which
turned out to be a fake.

History Strengthened out.

The Old Athenian who insists that IL
was Capt. SCOTS and not Col. Crockett's
coon that came down on a critical occa-
sion is entirely correct. says the Boston
Herald. Capt. Martin Scott was a great
rifle shot in his day and generation and it
is related that he invited a party OF
friends out hunting once upon a time
They were soon scattered through the
woods, and one OF the party came upon
a raccoon that was sitting on one of the
highest branches of a very tall tree He
fired at him and missed aim. One by one
the other members of the party took aim
and fired, but they failed to dislodge the
animal At length Capt. Scott arrived on
the scene, and he was in the act of pulling
the trigger when the coon looked down
and said:

The possibility of a new telephone sys-
tenn in Savannah is interesting. Since
the expiration of the various telephone
patents which had the effect of creating
a telephone monopoly, various cities have
made arrangements to get the benefit
of competing exchanges. and it is only in
keeping with the spirit of Savannah that
she should be numbered among those pro-
gressive cities. The projectors of new
telephone schemes. however. should bear
in mind the fact that there are already
too many wires overhead. and the fur
Their fact that established corporations
fight like all possessed to prevent what

sentiment

The latest exploit of the South Caro-
lima whisky constabulary, reported in our
dispatches yesterday, appears on its face
to be a most extraordinary and high
handed piece Of business. A sloop from
this port laden with whisky and beer
marked with the name of and ostensibly
consigned to a firm in Wilmington. N. C,
was seized at Beaufort, S. c., under the
dispensary law. The supercargo in charge
says that the sloop was at Beaufort be-
cause, being a small vessel, she could not
go by sea during the heavy weather, but
was working her way between the Geor-
gia port and the North Carolina port by
way of the inside maritime route. This
being true, the cargo was merely inter
state commerce passing through the
state. whether it was whisky, or flour, or
bricks and as such was not amenable to the
South Carolina law. If.a cargo of liquor
going from Savannah to Wilmington may
be stopped in South Carolina because it
has not conformed to the South Caro-
lima law, a cargo of guano from Savan-
nah to Wilmington may be stopped in
South Carolina because it has not paid
the South Carolina privilege tax.

highlands Game Laws.

While in most things England may
be considered as abreast of the times
she is hopelessly to the rear as regards
her game laws. The a~bsurdity of the
latter as we'll as their fragrant injus-
tice, savoring of the feudal ages, was
strikingly illustrated the other day
when young Lord Stratheden and Camp
bell was able to get a sentence of i'm
prisonment and fine passed upon one of
his tenant farmers who had committed
the crime of shooting a hare on a field
which he leased from the peer. This
was held by the board Of magistrates,
consisting mainly of fellow landowners
and friends of Lord Stratheden, to con-
stitute the crime of poaching.

ware and dishes. It has reading rooms,
classrooms and a study for the pastor.
The bowling alley is in the basement
and is always full Of merry youths at
accessible hours. The gymnasium in the
attic is constantly ~patronized. Last
week a class of young men was organ
lied, and Professor Seeley of Williams
college was engaged for instructor. The
young women have become jealous, and
it has been decided to prohibit the use
of the gymnasium by the boys for sew
eral hours each day and turn it over to
the girls, who are determined to form
an athletic association too.
The church is not selfish. It has
thrown open the doors of its fine congre

ditions is a step toward publication.

sentative element who look %unfavorably

"By and by there will be a saloon

long as men will drink why not let
