someone, then. to provoke him to look
always upon the darkest side of things.
or one who will find the silver lining Of
the cloud? Shall his nearest and dear

she stimulate him to better living and
higher thinking by her own inherent
nobleness? 1t is often said that one who
sustains grave trials with fortitude may
find 1T difficult to meet the slight annoy
ances of every day. Still 1t cannot be
doubted that the habit of bearing small
troubles cheerfully will prove to be of
unreasonable advantage when the
heavy storms of life assail. The fairest
and most favored daughters of fortune
need to be prepared for the inevitable
times OF sorrow which come to every
human soul.

Not I'm the Bible.

Nine persons out of ten, or there
abouts, If asked where the expression
God tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb" can be found, will answer, IN
the Bible" But they will be mistaken
This is one of the three or four proverb-
ial quotations generally believed to
be in the Bible, which are not there
1t is from Lawrence Stern's famous
Sentimental Journey" in the chapter
called Maria" The other proverbs
commonly credited to the Bible are,
Cleanliness is next to goodness,
which is found in one of John Weley's
sermons, and Pour oil on the troubled
waters" which is derived from state
ment in Pings natural history, written
1.S0O years ago.

An Attractive Entertainment by Lanes

Most amateur entertainments have TO
depend principally upon feminine ac-
tors, and those performances which cali
for no men are always in request. SUCH
a one is the recently revived Peak SIS
tiers. The performance calls for some
dozen women, with one quick-witteo
leader, who does the introduction OF
the rest of the troupe. This speech Is
almost always local in it's fun and relys
largely upon the leaders cleverness.
The several performers have parts as
instrumental or vocal musicians or as
giving recitations and combine in a pro-
gram that may be indefinitely extended,
though nothing save broad burlesque
and rollicking humor is attempted

Their shameless treason wrought In

The days of reckless hardihood,
The wastful nights-all, all they see'
But once up twilight cold,
About the holy birth of spring,
My spirit trembled as of old
To hear the lusty throstle sing.
a rush of passion hot and wild,
Swept all my careless thoughts aslde'
And, humbly, like little child,
turned and hid my face and cried.
For then knew the brave old earth
Was lovely as it used to be;
That hope and love renewed their birth.
And all was well-but not for me.
And so yelled your eyes and thought
OF all my youth and squandered
years;
They well might see the sins they
wrought
They should not desecrate my tears.

Scheme to Run Aerial Trolley Cars
Along Nia&ara's Brink.
LocKPoRT N. Y, March 12-At-
torney George w. Pound, one of the
directors of the Aerial Tramway COM
pany, has sent to Albany a bill authoriz-
ing his company to erect tower and
landing place in the state reservation
park for the use of scheme which will
be one of the engineering triumphs of
the age A similar one has been
obtained with reference to Queen Victoria
park, from the Canadian government.
Leading Canadian politicians are inter
ested in the enterprise.
The company proposes to carry tourists
across the Niagara river over the brink
of the cataract and thirty feet above the
raging waters. A double set of cables
will be stretched from the towers in the
Canadian and American parks, with a
supporting tower on Goat Island
On these cables cages like cars will be
suspended by the trolleys and operated
by electricity from the American side.
The cars will be of steel and the cables
the best manufactured. The floors of
the cars will be perforated to allow visi-
tors to look below, and the side view will
also be unobstructed
The bill has powerful friends in the
legislature, it is said, and New York will
probably follow Canada in giving re-
Uuisite grants

It Has Been Decided in Favor of the I'm
ion Pacific by Judge SanbOrn.
A final decree, signed by Judge San
born, was filed in the United States cir
cult court at st. Louis today which
brings to an end the long contest be-
tween the Union Terminal Railroad COM
pany and the Union Pacific company
with reference to the railroad
crossing at Kansas City, Kansas
The Union Terminal company
insisted upon crossing at grade, while
the Union Pacific company coEtended
that an overhead crossing should be
made. The decree filed today provides
for the construction of an overhead cross
ing by the Union Terminal company,
which must be completed by Septembe
9, 1896 Pending the construction of an
overhead crossing the Terminal company
is permitted to cross at grade under varl-
Gus restrictions. From and after Septem-
ber 9, 1895, the Terminal company is per-
petually enjoined from crossing at grade.
The cost of the overhead structure is to
be divided equally between the Unicl
Terminal company, the Missouri Pacific
| company and the Union Pacific company.
This case has been in the United States
courts for over three years

M'CASEY GETTING EVEN.
The Asylum Doctor is the Motor Behind
the Householder Charges.


the Householder Charges.
The old charges against Senator NJ A.
Householder in connection with his
duties as a member and president of the
state board of charities have again been
brought to light and will this afternoon
be filed with Governor Morrill, with
petition asking that he authorize the ap-
pointment of a legislative Investigation
committee.
These charges, nineteen in all, were
prepared last fall and were to have been
presented to Governor Lewelling, but
the individuals back of them were never
able to get any one to swear to the
charges.
Ex-Superintendent DR.. McCasey is now
pushing the charges against Senator
Householder in an effort to get even and
the charges have been sworn to by Pat
McAndrews, man who was last sum-
mer employed on the asylum farm, but
who is now working on the city street
force.
Governor Morrill, said this afternoon
that if it is shown to him that the maker
of the affidavit is a reliable person, he
will have no discretion in the matter, but
must order an investigation.
If Governor Morrill, is convinced that
Pat McAndrews is reliable, there will be
an investigation.

OUR FLAG INSUL TED.
A Spanish Vessel Fires on the
Steamer Alliance.
Was Absolutely No ProvocatiOn
for the Attack.
SHOT THREE TIMES.
The Chase Was Kept Up for
Twenty-Five Miles.
Sec'y Gresham Has Been Notified
Of the Outrage.

New YORK, March 12-The Ameri-
can mail steamship Alliance, while pro-
ceeding from Colon to New York on the
barkentine rugged steamer under the
land off Cape May, the eastern edge of
Cuba, which headed directly towards
her. At o'clock, when about two and a
half miles distant, she hoisted the Span
ish flag, which was saluted by hosting
the American ensign and tipping it.,
which act of courtesy was answered by
the Spaniard.
At7:15 she fired a blank cartridge TO
leeward which was soon followed by an
other The American ensign was again
hoisted and dipped, but The course and
speed of the ship was not changed, as
no hostile demonstration was anticipated
as the Alliance was more than six miles
off the land at the time.
The Spanish man of-war was not salts
fed, however, with even the double
salute to her flag, but proceeded
to chase the American vessel to
her full speed, judging from
the smoke that came from her
funnel, and seeing that the Alliance was
| drawing away, she waved TO, bringing
her guns to The Car, and fired solid
shot, which struck the water less than
an eighth of mile away from the ship
and directly in line.
| This was followed by two more solid
shots, which fortunately did not reach
their mark, the second striking the
water in plain sight of the ship. At
each shot, however, the Spanish ship
| yaWed 10 get the range of the American
ship before firing on her, plainly show
! ing the intention to hit her If she could.
! Captain Crossman of the Allianca,
| knowing he was more than two leagues
from land and on the big seas, did not
consider it his duty to detain his ship to
! find out the reason for such an outrage
even for SO summary demand, and SO
| he ordered full steam and gradually
drew out OF range. The chase Was Kept
up for more than twenty five miles, how
ever, before it was abandoned If the
! Spaniard had more speed or her gunner5
| been better marksmen, no doubt the IN
cident would not have been ended so for
tunately for the American.
This outrage has been reported to the
secretary of state, by Captain Crossman,
and no doubt a prompt demand will be
made on the Spanish government for an
explanation of the insult, and a reason
required for the attempt made to stop
an American mail steamer in the high
seas in time of peace. Capt. Crossman
of the Alliance, has written letter to
the secretary of state at Washington,
giving a full statement of the Spanish
warship's conduct.

Later it was ascertained on reliable
authority that one negro had been killed
outright and a number had been wound
ed, several fatally. For many minutes
the firing continued on the river front
and the police seemed powerless to make
any move against the murderers, though
It IS said that there was a much larger
force on the river front than that of yes
terday.
Rioters Had Full Sway.
The rioters were given full sway. and
they exercised it without stint. Not un-
til every negro had fed from the river
front did the white men desist It was
also found that Joe Collins, Thomas Col
Inns and one unknown negro had been
killed and two unknown negroes wound
ed. They were taken to the charity hos
pital.
The entire police force has been
been telegra phed to and it is reported
the militia have been ordered to keep
themselves in readiness. At this writing
members of the mob are drinking. The
police fear more trouble. Acting Chief
OF Police John Journee is on duty. The
entire front is in turmoil. Another riot
may be expected at any moment.
The bodies of the four killed at the
jackson Square are at the Third
precinct station, while the bodies
OF others are at the Sixth
precinct police station. The report
that white 'longshoreman had been
Killed is now denied The time of the
shooting seemed to have been fixed for
the hour just preceding the beginning
of the working day.
As usual then, the stevedores and
| 'longshoremen begin work at o'clock,
/ and it was just before this hour that the
firing began. 1t seems to have been
totally unexpected, for the ne
groes were upon the levee
in large numbers. The poor blacks
evidently believed that there was suffi-
clent police force on the river front to
protect them and that the protection
would be accorded them.
Four Surely Dead.

Later reports are to the effect that at
least two negroes were shot and jumped
into the river They are still reported
missing.

my DEAR GOVERNOR"
Here Are the Advertisements of
Fifteen Saloons,
All Running in LeavenwOrth
Under Your Police Board.
IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW
That the Laws Were Being
Thus Violated,
The journal Takes Pleasure
in Furnishing You
THE FACTS NEEDED.
AtchisOn Too, is Another of the
NullifierS.
THE FACTS NEEDED

Governor Morrill, ought to know that
the prohiDitory law is being violated in
Leavenworth and Atchison, two of the
rebellous towns of Kansas, in spite of his
promise on the bible that he would en-
force the law.
If the governor has no positive inform
alton on this subject the JOURNAL can
give him what he wants.
OF course Governor Morrill, can't be
expected to read all of the eight hundred
Kansas newspapers; if he did he would
know that in Leavenworth and Atchison
the saloons are not only running, but
their advertisements are printed in the
daily newspapers
Governor Morrill, reads the JOURNAL,
however, and the JOURNAL has several
times called the governors attention to
the fact that the saloons were running
in these towns, but the advertisements of
the saloons themselves may be consid-
cred as evidence in the case.
Leavenworth has about twenty five
regular saloons, but some of the saloon
keepers are not enterprising and do not
advertise. Fifteen of the twenty five
however want more business and under
stand that newspaper advertising is
profitable.
For some years after the prohibitory
law went into effect it was customary for
the Kansas City liquor dealers to adver-
tise their business in Kansas news
papers. but it was not until during the
last few days that the advertisements of
Kansas saloons again appeafed in Kan
sas papers.
The following advertisements in the
Leavenworth Times show for themselves
