Why the Powers Divided Africa.

Why the POWERS OlVlueu Africa
That the Monroe doctrine could be
recognized in Europe is strictly denied
by the European press. We are not re-
garded as q nation capable of agrees
sive politics, and our reputation as
warriors is not sufficiently great to eX-
cite fear in other countries. 1t is other
wise with our reputation in the peace
full struggle for commercial and indus
trial supremacy. Europe has discoV-
cred that we are no longer dependent
upon her manufactures, while our raw
produce is absolutely necessary to Eu-
ropean industries. 1t is the knowledge
of these facts, thinks the Vosslsche
Zeitung, Berlin, which has caused the
partitioning of the Dark Continent. The
paper says
THE partitionlng of Africa is a ne
cessity. Europe must have market
for her produce, must be enabled to
produce raw material upon soil belong
ing to her, and she needs new spheres
into which her children can be sent as
Colonists Hence the wish to extend
their spheres of influence which has
possessed the great European nations
FOR the past fifteen years. The discoV-
cries OL Livingstone, SchWeinGurth,
Stanley, Nachtigal, Wissman, and
many others, gave the impetus, and
now even Russia extends her hand to-
ward ADyssinla, although she is natu-
rally more interested in Asia. TO civil
lie Africa is, however, a much more
difficult task than the subsection and
colonization of America, partly on ac-
count of the climate, partly because
Africa is much more thickly settled
The American colonies were very ia
vorable to settlers, and well suited for
the increase of the whites since, with
the exception of the MeXicans and
Peruvlans, there were nothing but no
madic hunters, devoid of all ciViliza-
ton, and unable tc resist the whites.
Africa has the desert to defend her, as
well as the fever, and her people, part
ly civilized by the Arabs, can not east
ly be subjected to the influence of Eu-
ropean culture. But the economical sit
uation forces Europe to retain Africa
as her own. The New World is doing
its best to become emancipated from
the influence of our industries, and
seeks to make us dependent by its
wheat and its cotton. We must have
Africa to produce both"

Hand-to-Hand Struggle with n Bear.

The strength of the hunter was often
severely taxed not only in the chase
proper, but in encounterlng fierce ami
inuis by the way. The bear figures
largely IN hunting tales told around the
campfire to a group of Interested lis
teners, among whom sits the boy long
ing for the time to come when, like
some aforementioned hero of the
tribe, he shall he able to grapple single
handed with the powerful grizzly bear
and tear its fearful jaws aSunder The
niece of a noted Nez Perez Indian
hunter, now a very old woman, relates
that her uncle performed this feat and
her story is well Corroborated in the
tribe. Attacked suddenly by the huge
animal the man seized 1t with one
hand by an ear into which he thrust
his fingers, while with the other hand,
at the expense of "a thumb, he tore
apart the muscles of the jaws and left
the helpless beast to ole on the steep

JEFF Davis Friend.

MALVERN, Ia, Sept. 2.-The late
NJ. U. Payne, the famous Fremont
county millionaire who died few
days ago, was most interesting and
original character. He was a life
long friend of Jefferson Davis, and
when the latter was elected Presi-
dent Of the Southern Confederacy
he appointed Payne Secretary of the
Interior, but he never served in that
capacity.
On the contrary, he came North
and settled in Fremont county, where
he has since amassed fortune esti-
mated at from 81 100000 to 81, ,OOO,>
900. He owned land in every State
in the Union except one. When
Jeffelso Davis died he owed Mr..
Payne 100000 which he had for>
gotten to pay. When Davis died
Payne was called to his home to
preach his funeral sermon.

Mini.s.r Dupuy d. Loms In Tears.


 There was remarkable scene in the state department not long ago. It was that of the minister from Spain, the proud 'Senor Dupuy' de Lome, in tears in the presence of the secretary of state. MT. de Lome was sent hfther by his government after Muragua had made such mess of his mission with a defi- mite object in view. That object was to avert the necessity of Spain's paying the famous Mora claim. The Spanish government believed Mr. dddome, with his art and address, his tact, his Chica- go experience, his success in manage ment of delicate matters, would be able to postpone, if not to. defeat outright, payment of the old claim. But he ran against one of the strongest men ever seen in the state department MT. Olney is bulldog in tenacity, fighter when his blood is up.
 All of MT. de, Lome's art was exer- cised in vain. Useless were his appeals for time Mr. Olney told him in lan- guage quite unmistakable, though very polite, that the claim had to be paid The dread alternative which the minis ter and his government had to face was the appearance of American ships of war in Havana harbor. with their command CTS under orders to seize the custom house after. the lapse of a certain period of time. The naughty Spaniards had nothing to do but yield, and they did this rather ungracefully.. When he final ly realized that defeat was Inevitable, Minister de Lome broke down. The tears came to his eyes and he. exclaimed to Secretary Olney: "This will ruin me, MT. Secretary. am beaten in the principal object for which was sent here. twill make me the most unpop- ular man in Spain, My career is at an end. "-Walter Weflman in Chicago Times-H Herald.

Heav- en itself is called a prize, "the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Je- sus. So what is right in one direction is right in another direction. And with out the prizes the horse,s f1eetness and beauty and strength will never be fully developed. If it cost q ,000 or $5, 900 or $10, ,000 and the result be achieved, it is cheap. But the sin begins where the betting begins, for that is gambling, or the effort to get that for which you give no equivalent, and gambling, whether on a large scale or a small scale, ought to be denounced of men as it will be accursed of God. If you have won 50 cents or &5, 900 as a wager, you had bet ter get rid of it.. Get rid of it right away. Give it to some one who, lost in a bet, or give it to some great reforma- tory institution, or if you do not like that, go down to the river and pitch it off the docks. You cannot afford to keep it. twill burn hole in your purse, it will burn g hole in your estate, and you will lose all that, perhaps l ,000 times more-perhaps you will lose all.
