Gov. McIaurin replied as follows:
ssThexe is no Southern and Western

lation has all along been in favor Of
the rich of the East against the South

cease. The poor Of the East suffer

we complain of this inequality Of legis-

BRING BAD LUCK TO SHIPS.
Names of the Saints and of Inla nd

Never name a vessel after n saint or an
inland town. If you do, while she may not
be unlucky. she Will never be what you
might call fortunate" The speaker was an
old salt " no spends a great deal of his time
down on the battery, and the remark was

Ever hear Of the Spanish Armada" con-
tinued the old fellow. as he warmed UP.
Well. most of the vessels in that fleet were
named after saints: what happened TO them?
Perhaps you remember the expedition which
France fitted out and sent over here To de-
stroy the ports on the New England coast: il
never reached lis destinatiun-more saints.
II Columbus had commanded the Pinta in
stead OF the Santa Maria he would have dis
covered america Just The same, ana instead
of dying in ignonliny and poverty he would
have realized some of the benefits Of his dis

Look at The vessels named after inland
places: how many OF the Alabama's vic
tins were named; think OF the Cum
berland and Minnesota in Hampton Reads.
Do you remember the Camperdu or
modern steamers the Paris has never been
as fortunate as the New York. although
they are sister ships and built exactly alike;
the Spree has broken her shaft run ashore,

something else. When st. Paul and st.
Louis were given out as the names of the
new liners l was in London waiting for a
cargo.
Another American captain and myself
used To frequent a little place which was
"a sort OF hangout for sailormen. We were
congratulating ourselves that the United
States had at last started to build ocean
liners, and, being cussed Yankees. were in

our table sat an Old English captain who
had retired years ago. He broke in on US by
saying All rights, Yanks, crow away.

MANS FINGER Was FOUND
Was in a Mail Box Wrapped in q
Newspaper.
PostOffice Officials Are Now Looking
for Flood of Grewsone ob-
jects-whnt They Say.

When Letter Carrier Cock ,pcncd the
mail box at the corner of Seventh and X
streets at midnight last night 10 make the
us,ial collection he found a round object
wrapped up IN a piece Of ne wspaper which
contained neither stamps nor directions.
Mr.. Cook at once suspected that it was
some part of the human body he held in his
hand, and was, therefore, not greatly
surprised when, upon unwrapping the paper.
the finger OF coiored man was revealed.
The gruesome object was wrapped up in Its
original covering. which happened 10 be a
copy of the First Presbyterian Church Julie
tin of March 90, 1886, and taken to the
postoffice. When Capt. Bell. superintendent
OF the city delivery, came down this morning
it was turned over to him.
The finger is an unusually long one and
the man from whose hand IL was cut
has not been dead a great while. The am
puta ton was "A neat piece OF work. and
the postoffcc officials think IL was done
by some medical student, who placed it in
the letter box joke. The final dis
position of the finger has not been de-
termined upon, but at present II is re-
posing on a window sill back OF the desk
OF Capt. Bell. superintendent of city de-
livery, in an official envelope containing
the following Endorsement:
THE enclosed finger was collected from
box at The corner Of Seventh and X streets.
OH the midnight collection, by Mr.. Cook"
Having, then, been officially recognized,
it is now part of Uncle Sans possessions
and will consequently have to be handled
with great care. There is no telling how
much red tape must be unwound before this
poor piece of flesh and bone may be ssigned
to a final resting place.
We will probably receive more grewsome
objects now said Capt. Bell to the repor-
ter. "Cranks read Of these things and then
try to initiate them. There is no telling
what will be received next
Some of the officials in the postoffice
think that this last contribution TO the
"ghastly relic depa rtment was called
forth by the publication of the fact that a
baby's body had been sent through the
mails short time ago. They claim that
these things are something in the nature
Of an epidemic and as soon as one person
gains notoriety by su ch an act there are lots
Of others who follow their example.

EXPLANATIONS IN ORDER
House Had to Listen to Two Per-
soual Statements.
Representatives Bartlett and BOutelie
Each Had Something to Say-Gen.
Vheeier Got IN Word.

Personal explanations were the order or
the day at the opening of the House tcday.
Mt. Bartlett referred TO an Item published
yesterday charging him with having fur
nisled 10 Mr. Sulzer the copy OF latter
prepared by Mr.. Gibson for circulation
among his constituents, which, the item
stated, Mr. Bartlett had picked up in a
job printing office. He denounced the item
;ts a lie, without the slightest foundation IN
1act.
He was followed by Mr.. Boutelle. who
called attention to a change in the report
OF the proceedings OF yesterday, recoruihg
the colloquy between himself and MT.
Gratis in the House toward the bill 10 piaoc C
Gen. Grant on the retired list, a Change,
which, lie said. did him 4 gloss injustice,
as II left him st;lnaing on nothing in respect
of the charge he had made, wbcn as a
matter OF TACT, he was standing ON the
record OF the House. There being no
objection, the Speaker announced that the
Rccord would lie made TO correspond WIN
the facts US they occurred.
The explanation Occasioned some feeling
and confusion. Mr.. Wheeler desired to
explain how the change occurred. and
after some contention, he was permitted
to explain that he had made the change in
order to correct a mista ke III his statcTIie nj,
an opportunity to do which at the time had
been denied him. With this, at the sug-
gestion of the Spea ker tReedD, the inct-
dent was closed.
At 1880 the House, in Committee of the
Wuoie, proceeded to consider The ma val ap-
preparation bill and the opening speech was
made by Mr.. Boutellc, chairman of the
Committee of Naval Affairs.
