NEGROES IN TIE DISTRICT.

Ehey Want the Suffrage Restored Becauaa
They Charge Discrimination.
At the next session of congress mon.
Bter petition will be presented by Repre-
sentative Murray of South Carolina, the
only colore man in either house, pray.
ing for the restoration of the rights of
political suffrage in the District of Co
lumbia. 1t will be signed by MAORI
ty of the negroes of the District, headed
by Frederick Douglass and ex-senator
Bruce. This move grows out of the re-
fusal Of the commissioners of the Dis
trict to appoint a colored man as one Of
the members of the board of assessors
recently created by act of congress. The
colored men had an applicant in the
person of Daniel A. Murray, an assist
ant in the congressional library and
member of the board of trade Frederick
Douglass especially interested himself in
behalf of Mr.. Murray, but the board re-
fused to appoint him. The colored peo-
pie made a stubborn fight for the assess
orship and now that that has been de-
MED them no offices are left, and they
propose to memorabilia congress for the
restoration of the right of suffrage in
the District.
When the suffrage was in vogue in
the District, the negroes were an impor.
tant factor in the government, and
part of the patronage was accorded
them. There was a negro assistant dis
trict attorney, a tax registrar and city
marshal, and other lucrative offices
were filled by them. But with abolition
OF the right of suffrage they have been
cut off one by one until the assessorship
was the only place filed by negro,
Now even that has been taken away.
Frederick Douglass says that the gov
eminent of the District is an oligarchy.
and 1t is wonder to him that the peo-
pie have tolerated it as long as they
have. Under its present form of gov
eminent he thinks it impossible for the
90, 600 colored people to get any civil
or political recognition. He says the
trend is now against the negro, but
that reaction will speedily set in.
The sentiments Of Mr.. Douglass are
Endorsed by other prominent colored
citizens Of the District who say that if
they are not successful in their move
they will at least let the world know
they feel keenly the discrimination on
account Of color in the government OF
the District. The pastors of all the 10
cal churches are in favor of the move
ment, and the petitions will be placed
at the several churches from Sunday to
Sunday for signatures. - Washingtos

IT rained last night and Old Sol
shines today as though he imagines we
are celebrating the Fourth of July
down here. In consequence the snow
is going fast and walking is simply hor-

DURING the noon hour today, the
little son of Professor Dix, while in the
store with his father, got behind the
counter in the Pyne & Maiben store,
found some matches and struck them.
In short while thereafter an immense
volume of smoke was seen to issue
from behind the counter. A lot of
paper was burning which was easily
removed and the fire easily extin-
guished. There was a case containing
upwards of 100 boxes of matches near
the fire and other combustibles. 1t
was very narrow escape from most
serious fire.

Strange stories are told of the Dokos,
who live among the moist, warm bam-
boo woods to the south of Kaffa and
susa in Africa. Only feet high, Of
dark olive color, savage and naked, they
have no fire. They live only on ants,
mice and serpents, diversified by few
roots and fruits They let their nails
grow long, like talons, the better to dig
for ants and the more easily to tear in
pieces their favorite snakes. The Dokos
used to be invaluable as slaves, and they
were taken in large numbers. The slave
hunters used to hold up bright colored
clothes as they came to the bamboo
woods, where these human monkeys still
live, and the poor Dokos could not re-
sist the attractions offered by such SUI
perior people. They crowded round
them and were taken in thousands. In
slavery they were docile, attached,
obedient, with few wants and excellent
health. These queer people have one
fault-a love for ants, mice and SER
penis and a speaking to Yer with theiE
heads on the ground and their heels in
the air. Yer is their idea of superior
power, to whom they talk in this COM
ical manner when they are dispirited OF
angry or tired of ants and snakes and
longing for unknown food-Populal
