that he has been removed to the
county prison. Gentry is still SC
weak that he could not walk alone
to the ambulance that took him to

lost his life and his wife received

Sweeney came home drunk and
went up stairs to bed, leaving
his wife asleep on the first floor.
At 2 O'Clock she detected the odor
of smoke and on going to her hus-
bands room, found the lamp over
turned and the room in a blaze.
She repeatedly attempted to drag
Sweeney to the stairs, but was un-
able. She was severely burned
before she abandoned the attempt,
and to save her own life leaped
from a window. The firemen
dragged Sweeney out, but he died
in a few minutes. Mrs. Sweeney
inhaled the flames and was terribly
bruised by her fall. The couple
were childless.

Sundays New York Sun has
the following editorial in regard
to the different advantages of syn
dicates
One of the advantages of the
syndicate system of doing busi-
ness, whether the business be that
Of production or of exchange, is its
tendency to cheaper the price Of
the article in which the syndicate
deals. to make the selling price Of
goods lower than it was under the
ordinary system. The great syn
dicates are able to economic in
production, manufacture, or trans
fer. That is the good of them. We
had plenty of recent illustrations
of the benefits they confer upon the
consumer.
The two great syndicates orga-
nized in California since the begin
ming Of last year, the wine syndi-
cate and the fruit syndicate, have
had an influence in the contrary
direction. They have largely ad-
vanced the price Of the articles in
which they deal. Since the wine
syndicate obtained control Of al.
most all the wines produced in
California, the price OF the lower
grade Of California claret has been
nearly doubled; it has been in
creased from seven to twelve cents
per gallon, and there is a prospect
Of a further increase. The Fruit
Exchange, the syndicate of fruit
growers, had hardly goton its feet
a short time ago, when it decided
to add fifteen cents a box to the
previous price of the two better
grades Of naval oranges; and there
is already news that prices ar:
again to be advanced all around
for California fruits.
These Pacific coast syndicate:
do not seem to be 50 shrewd a:
those on this side ofthe mountains
The wine people believe that
California claret has become SC
popular in this part Of the country
that they can hold the market
though they put up the price o.
their product in the face Of tn,
French article. They had bette
be cautious. The popularity o
the California claret is largely du,
to its exceeding cheapness. I
hey take Oh too mtny airs, they
will drive lots Of the consumers o
il back to the French side. Il
like manner, the fruit people, while
raising the price Of oranges, are Sc

Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, March 8.-Henry
7. Thurber, private secretary, to
President Cleveland, has gone to
New York city on private business.
He is accompanied by his sister,
Miss Thurber. He was seen in
the hotel rotunda after just finished
reading a message from one of
Presidentcle ducking party.
In reply to a question he said. IL
am just taking a good rest. Do you
know that for twelve days before
congress adjourned, / stayed at the
white house until 4 a. m. helping
the president out with his bills,
and then would be back at my
desk at 1890 o'clock. The presi-
dent will be gone about ten days
or two weeks. Mr.. Thurber took
a pessimatic view of the outlook
for legislation in the next congress
and says, ''it is apparent to every
one that the republic ms are just
as widely divided on the financial
question as the democrats were.
Mr.. Thurber reviewed President
cleveland's work during the extra
session and during the short ses-
sion, and said that Mr.. Cleveland
had been harrassed and worked
until il was a wonder that be held
out at all. He expects beneficiary
results from his present outing.
There is quite an a ray Of legal
talent at the Arlington, comprising
Jo eph II. choate, w. d. Guthrie,
c. A. Seward, and Charles Steele,
a quartette Of eminent New York
lawyers, besides ex-senator George
+. EduIunds, Of Vermont. They
are here to appear before the su-
preme court Of the United States
in the income tax cases, and will
endeavor 10 show that the tax is
lie .al and unconstitutional.
Nearly all the prominent per-
ms are following the presidents
example in going away for a sea-
son Of rest and recreation.
Vice President Stevenson left
for his home in Bloomington, ILL.,,
Tuesday night and will take a long
and much needed rest.
Postmaster General BisselI, sc-
companied by Mrs. Bissell left

A Remarkable Debate

There was a remarkable gath
ering of colored people at the
Big Bethel A, M. e. church last
Friday night at Atlanta, Ga,
the occasion being a joint de-
bate between Prof. w. III. roun-
Gil, Of Alabama, and Rev. Chas.
is. Smith, D. D. Of Tennessee,
two Of the leading representa-
lives Of their race in the south
on the question: "Resolved,
That the American of African
descent can never rise to full
manhood in the United States
of America, and that the re-
demption and civilization of
Africa as the future home of
the American of African de-
scent is desirable
Prof Counsel, who has visited
Africa, argued the affirmative,
while DR.. Smith defended the
negative. The discussion is an
evidence Of the re-aroused in
terest in African emigration a.
mong the negroes there, and de-
rived additional pertinence from
the fact that the three car loads
of negroes from Mississippi
passed through Atlanta that
day en- route for Liberia by way
Of Savannah.
