SLAVERY IN AFRICA.
People Vot1ntArlly Take tho Yoke TO Z
cape Starvation.

KeoRael VOk0ntarlly Take tho Yoke to Es-
cape Starvation.
In an account of famine prevalent In
Africa cabled to this country the other
day was stated that men weresellinp
themselves, their, wives and chiI Idren, In
70 slavery to insure themselves food in
return, and that whole villages had
voluntarily taken, the yoke to escape
starvation, The: incident illustrates
anew one OF the conditions which first
introduced, and have long Sustained
African slavery. And slavery, saws an
ex-consul in the Boston Transcript, is
not confined to the mountains and. val
leys of British Central Africa.
The truth is, the condition is COM
mon to all: Africa, from north of Sene-
gambia to far south of the Mossamedes
Z river. In other words, 1t may be said
that slavery is an institution. in Africa
wherever fetch or superstition is an in
fuenee and improyidence practice.
There are but few. tribes whose mem
bers have not some degree. of skill in
the manufacturing Of rude agricultural
implements which they use in the cul-
ttvation of rice, sweet potatoes, guinea
corn, and other staples indigenous to
their soil. These products are raised
in quantities sufficiently large, if eco
nomically used, to meet all necessary
needs, but economy is something to
them unknown; on the contrary, i'm
providence is the rule, with the result
that when a season of drought arrives
their granaries soon become empty
and famine takes possession of the land.
1t is during this period of suffering
that thousands -.oe sayages become
slaves The chiefs, the head men, the
strong, the powerful ,in order that their
own lives may be preserved, seize the
weak and helpless and sell them into
slavery. In this way they renew their
exhausted granaries with treasures of
grain, and at the same time reduce the
number of consumers. 1t is pertinent
to state right here that since the inter
ruption of the, slavery trade between
Africa and America, the market for the
sale of slaves being difficult for the
West African tribes to reach, it fire.
quently happens that those who in
former times would have been sold are
now killed.
The improvidence which SO. often is
the eaus of their suff ffering is dispiayed
in all, their doings. Not q single set Is
performed without the practicing OF
some superstitious rite accompanied
with revelry and great waste, even the
sowing of their farms with grain. being
no exception.

GLOVES MADE or PAPgRs

Experiments I'm Making Hosiery OF tho
Ramo, Material May Succeed.
: Paper gloves and hosiery are named
as among the very latest novelties,
Stockings which shallsellat three cents
o pair are proposed. In fact, says the
Clover, the experiment Of making paper
stockings has been going on for several
months, and the party engaged therein
believes that paper mittens or gloves
would possess advantages in their sea-
son. The goods are light and airy and
very comfortable in summer.
When finished and dyed their appear
ance Is similar to ordinary fabric goods.
The knitting is from paper yarns. The
paper yarns are made pretty much after
the plan of making common paper
twines except that the former are put
through certain special processes. The
principle is that OF making q sort Of
nap ON the yarn. This is done auto
matically. Ordinarily paper Irvine or
yarn is too smooth, but good gigging
up gives the yarn nap and this Inn
parts softness. After the knitting has
been done the goods are placed in siz-
ing bath made from potato starch and
tallow, which imparts solidity and du-
rability to the texture.
With paper passenger car wheels,
paper water pals, why not paper socks
and stockings?

Electrical worker of New York Declare
tho Tie-Up ut m End.
NEW YORK, March 2a-The electrical
wiremens' strike which commenced On
Feb. II, has been declared of. With the
exception Of having the eight-hour day
started on May l instead Of May Is the

which they had not enjoyed prior to the
strike. Bishop Henry C. Potter, presi-
dent Of the board of mediation and con-
Citation, and Professor Felix Adler, Of
the same body, were maicly instrumental
in bringing about the settlement.
The basis of the settlement was that all
electrical workers at present employed be
subjected to an examination as to COM
potency in accordance with the rule hith-
erto prevailing in the trade. That the
Electrical Workers union declares its
readiness to accept into their unions all
persons who have satisfactorily passed
such examination, irrespective of their
action in the present strike, but the men
employed at present by the Electrical Con-
tractors association shall, If they wish,
join the union without interference from
their employers.

had q warm debate on Jamison's bill to
repeal the law authorizing Roman Cath
Ollie bishops to hold property in trust for
the church, which came up on its third

who, it was asserted, was probably mar

DOMESTIC STRATEGY.

When the Emancipated Woman came
down to breakfast she found a most de-
licious meal awaiting her. Her hus-
bands biscuits had never been lighter
or f1akier The coffee had never been so
fragrant in aroma, so delicious to the
taste. The beefsteak was broiled just
as she liked it, and it was as tender as
the affection Of her own tender and low
ing husband.
"Ahv she said, as she laid aside her
napkin and prepared to leave the table,
"a breakfast like this fortif1es one for
the days duties. Now a good, sweet
good-by kiss from my dear husband, and
I am gone"
He put his arms about her neck and
looked up into her face as she kissed
him and then he cooed:
my beloved, I just adore you! Oh,
why do you have to go to the horrid Of
fee? Why can't you stay here at home
with me- where I can look upon your
sweet face and feel your kisses upon my
lips?"
The Emancipated Woman smiled an
indulgent smile as she replied:
THAT would be very nice, but life is
something more than hugs and kisses
you know. 1 must go and perform my
part in the great world Of business, while
my dear husband, in his sheltered home
nest attends to his domestic duties.''

CLEANEST TOWN IN THE WORLD

CLEAN ESI IOW N In The WORLD.
The cleanest town in the world is said
to be in Brock Holland. 1t is only a few
miles from the capital and has been ia
nous for it's cleanliness from time i'm
memorial. It is also notable on account
of the fanciful style of it's houses and
yards and gardens and streets. The peo-
pie, though only peasants, are well-to-do.
and all feel pride in their town. It
seems to be the full business of their
lives to keep their houses freshly painted
their gardens in perfect order, and their
yards and streets as clean as a parlor
No carts are allowed in the streets and
no cattle. Though the raising of stock
and the making Of butter and cheese are
their occupations, stranger would never
imagine that there were any cattle in
the region, unless he went to the beauti-
full green meadows at the back of the
houses, or the stables out there, where
cows are kept in stalls, scrubbed and
washed like a kitchen. The streets arc
too fine and neat for the feet of anima ls
to step on; all are paved with polished
stones, intermingled with bricks of Diff
ferent colors, and kept so SPONTANEOUSLY
clean that a lady could walk anywhere
in white satin slippers.-Pall Mall Ca

HOT WEATHER DON'TS

Don't IVORY about the weather.
Don't walk on the sunny side of the
street.
Don't work unless you have to. and
then work slowly.
Don't fail to carry an umbrella if you
are exposed long to the suns rays.
Don't drink anything to excess. Ice
water is about as bad as anything else.
Don't use fan. The exercise Of
working it will overcome all the good you
experience.
Don't think it is the hottest day YOU
ever experienced, and if you do think it.
don't say so.
Don't be afraid of perspiration. 1t is a
good sign, and it reduces the tempera-
ture of the body.
If you follow out the majority of these
don'ts you will feel that you followed the
injunction to keep cool.
Don't feel it a duty to look at the Their
mometer every ten or fifteen minutes
during the middle Of the day.
Don't make meal largely made up of
meats. Vegetables come at this season
Of the year especially for the benefit of
