"The spectator gives only success; the
reader gives fame"
"Playwrights who hope to live in the

Race and Labor Questions Mixed.

A singular instance of the race antago-
nism between the negroes and the class OF
white people who never owned a slave and
the good will of the old masters toward the
negroes comes from Richmond. The law
firm of Christian & Christian, one Of the
most prominent in Richmond, both of the
principals having been slave owners en-
ployed colored boy as messenger. The
boy was intelligent and industrious and
developed the trustworthiness which Is
common enough in the south among ne
groes in their relations with ladies and gen.
tlemen. The lawyers helped the boy on,
trusted him, and he rose to be something
more than an Office boy. Then he studied
typewriting and stenography and became,
in fact. their clerk.
The labor unions took the matter up and
demanded that the young fellow be dis
missed The Christians came out in q
card refusing to dismiss him and mention
ing incidentally that no other man could
be as useful to them, as this young colored
man understood all their affairs. At the
last account the law firm was standing by
the negro, while the white labor unions
were denouncing him.-BostonTra Transcript.

Told In a Dream.

A peculiar incident of successful me.
chanical invention being revealed in q
dream is causing much interest among
psychologists down east. Some week age
the Caribou (Me.) Republican told Of a
French citizen Of that place who dreamed
he was working with circular saw which
had teeth of a peculiar and novel pattern.
The man remembered the shape of the
teeth when he awoke from the dream and
made saw with teeth of like pattern.
The saw proved to be a great success, and
the man Is taking out patent for it. The
Boston Society For Psychical Research
took the matter up, and in response to in.
quiries from that body and from many
other sources the editor Of The Republican
youches for the correctness of the story.

ELECTRIC SPRING TO ORDER.
Many Invalids Cured BY IL Before the De-
ception Was Found Out.

In one of the shipyards Of Cleveland
there is young man who demonstrated
20 some people OF the Rocky mountain
country the great influence OF the mind
over the body. In their cases this influence
was sufficient to cure various diseases un-
I'll they discovered tho hoax, and then a
relapse came TO some who had not rs yet
thoroughly recovered.
The young man and his companions
were not posing as priests of any peculiar
faith, but were simply looking out for the
dollars that might come from their pa
tients, and the cures were In no wise cred
tied to faith, but to the natural properties
of an electric spring." This they claimed
to have discovered under tho bluff at
Pixies peak, and over the water they built
n fancy sanitarium. Soon people came
from far and near and not only came, but
were cured. From various diseases the
patients obtained relief, and the sufferers
from rheumatism were numerous, some
being terribly crippled.
The phenomena of the spring were re-
markable and unique. Those who bathed
In its waters felt pleasing currents of the
subtle energy coursing through their anat-
omy, and when n cup, which was chained,
was touched TO its surface u shock was
felt by the arm which held the cup. Mar
yelous success came to the sanitarium, and
wealth was rapidly coming TO the young
men during the several months that the
cure was In operation, until one day n
party of electricians visited the place and
discovered the secret of the springs pecul-
lar action. Thereupon, fearing the wrath
of the people, the young men fled, leaving
everything behind.
The visiting electricians, strolling over
the mountain, had found wires, and these
were traced into the spring. Beneath the
rocky bottom of the basin there was net
work of the conductors The secret Of the
shock obtained at the drinking place was
found to lie in the fact that the water was
connected with wire and when the cup
touched the surface a circuit was formed.
The discovery Of the fraud destroyed in
many cases all the good that had been done
by the Observation-Disclosures Leader.

GLADsT0NE'S MESSAGE.

"Vindicate the rights of the House
OF Commons as the organ OF the nation.
Establish the honor OF England as well
as consolidate the strength Of the En-
pire by conceding the just constitu-
tional claims of Ireland"
That is Gladstone's comprehensive
and ringing message to the English
people in the coming elections. It tells
in few works all there is of the lesson
OF progress, Of intelligence and Of JUS
tice.
Give true liberty to the people by
giving the power Of legislation to their
direct representatives, by preventing
body OF hereditary legislators from
blocking the wheels Of government,
thus making the suffrage o mockery
and sham.
Make the Empire strong by blotting
out bigotry, prejudice and hatred in
your treatment Of Ireland, doing JUS.
tice to the Irish people and removing a
curse from your nation but little, IL
any, better than the blight Of slavery.
Can England with safety to her in.

OF the Grand Old Man2
Glsdstone's message is Of vastly m ore
importance than any message from the
Throne, for IL involves the existence oi

A curious point about the reports
sent out by the Spaniards about the
struggle in Cuba is that, whereas the
size Of the insurgent bands is made to
appear very small in each instance, the
number Of men lost by the patriots is
always described as very large. The
Spaniards don't seem to have mathe-
matical or logical minds to the extent
of making their bulletins jibe.

Bona parties Horrible Suggestion.

AS a votary at the shrine of
science he believed in the lawful
ness of suicide, and he now cOldly
suggested murder to his surgeon
general, limiting that an overdose
of opium would end the sufferings
of those plague stricken men who
would have to be abandoned. 1t
was long believed that dose act
ually had been administered to the
sixty or more who were left behind.
But the conclusive evidence that
the report was false is in the fact
that when Sir Sidney Smith occup-,
led Jaffa tie sufferers were still
alive. Napoleon to the last defend
ed the suggestion as proper, though
he falsely denied having made it
himselfnnd umtruthfully declared
at st. Helena that he had delayed
three days to protect the dying
patients. With cynical good ma
ture he told the fine story of how
the noble French phyician Des-
genettes (who, in spite of his con-
viction that the plague was conta-
gious, had already inoculated him
self with the disease to allay the
panic of the terror-stricken sold
iers,) had rejected the criminal
suggestion, replying that physi-
clans profession was to save not to
destroy, human life.
