LITTLE BETTER THAN SLAVERY.
Nicaragua Laborers in Most Pitiable
Condition-NicnrnGun Cof-
fee Crop Short.

Managua, Nicaragua, Jan. "A terrible
state of affairs prevails in the labor market
here, and the system of selling labor has
resulted in reducing very large numbers of
men, women and children to a state os
slavery. Owners of coffee estates recently
held a meeting with the object of intiuenc-
ing the government of Nicaragua to es-
tablish in Cuba a labor agency to induce
cuban laborers to migrate to Nicaragua
Men and women here are now endeavoring,
by every possible means except armed rev.
olution, to escape from the servitude in
cident to the sale of their labor authorized
by the constitution of Nicaragua, and en-
forced as vigorously as possible by mill
tary power until the money for goods ad-
vanced to them, interest thereon and
heavy fines for delinquency have been paid
in full by labor at low rates.
This years crop of coffee in Nicaragua is
estimated at about so per cent of a full
crop. The deficiency has been caused by
insufficient rains during the year. The
twigs on which the coffee crop of 1897 is to
be borne are, from drought, so small and
short as not to be able to yield a full crop
in many estates in Nicaragua next year.
A number of persons in Nicaragua, espe-
cially in the eastern portion, are making
preparations to cultivate sugar cane, in
stead of coffee, as heretofore.

THIS BIKE WILL PROPEL ITSELF.
You Guide and the Machine Does the
Rest.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
NJ. Demange. a French inventor, has de-
vised plan by which he claims a cyclist
may ride at u speed of from twelve to
fifteen miles an hour with no exertion at
all, except that required in guiding the
machine. He has contrivance which in
form is a sort of turbine arrangement,
something like q followed out gourd, in
"gores,' and the "gores" turned little on
their axes. The turbine is placed on dual
rods, attached vertically to the forward
wheel of the bicycle. A bar projects from
the center of the handle bars outward,
and to this is attached the top of the tur-
bine. The turbine revolves on its axis
and catches enough wind to give the for
ward wheel an additional impetus. No
matter from what direction the wind blows
the turbine catches it, and by attachment
with the hub of the front wheel communi-
Gates some of the force of the wind to the
wheel. The turbine practically neutralizes
the effect of the beam wind. The rotary
motion of the turbine works on rods that
attach it to a ratchet wheel, which revolves
about the hub of the front wheel. These
rods work up and down like the piston rods
of an engine, and in that way accelerate
the motion greatly.

They may not think they have dyspepsia.
but the fact remains that they do not eat
enough food or what they cat is not quick

DIR. Harlanson says the reason is because
the stomach lacks certain digestive acids

gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is to sun

are several good preparations which will
do this. but none so readily as Stuart S

STEPHENS WOULDN'T PROMISE.

Refused to Outline His Policy Re-
Enrding the Police Commissioners.
Two of the Democratic members of the
lower house called upon Lon V. Stephens
at the Coates House Friday evening and
asked him if he proposed to make change
in the police board at Kansas City. Mr..
Stephens said he was not governor yet
and did not propose to outline his policy
in advance. Then one of the aldermen
made a decided show of temper and said
that unless Mr.. Stephens would promise
to make a change in the police board
he, the alderman, would vote with the Re-
publicans of his house for the ordinance
providing for a charter amendment, by
which the governor would be shorn of his
patronage, so far as the board was con-
cerned. The other alderman said he would
also vote for the ordinance, but the gov
ernor-elect remained firm and no compro-
mise was reached. If the aldermen carry
out their intentions as stated, the .ordi-
nance will obtain two more votes in the
lower house, the only place where the
measure is expected to meet with any de-
cided opposition.

Returns Three-fOurths of His
Official SaIary

Portland, Ore, Jan. 2.-When Mayor PEN
noyer entered upon his duties as chief ex-
ecutive of this municipality in July last,
he expressed the resolution to accept only
only half of the salary allowed him by
law, which is 5000, as he considered it
excessive. He has subsequently proved his
sincerity by officially turning into the city
treasury one-half of his legal salary, which
he declined to accept on the ground that
the duties of his office We're not worth it,
and directing Auditor Gambell to draw a
warrant for half the remainder. amounting
to about 81. $50, to the order of Secretary WAL

Annual Event at Pasadena, CAL, n
UnuuaIified Success

Pasadena, Cal. Jan. 2.-Pasadena was en-
fete yesterday, the occasion being the an
nual tournament of roses, and, in spite of
the fact that a chilling wind was blowing,
the streets were filled with people who had
assembled from all the surrounding towns.
The turnout of six four-in-hands was un-
usually fine. The elegance of the decorated
turnouts in all departments was up to the
usual standard, and the tournament was a
success from every point of view. Millions
of roses, carnations and other flowers were
used in trimming, the flowers all being
grown in Pasadena and vicinity. The num-
ber of strangers present was estimated at
from 5000 to 1000.

ALDERMAN JEwELEs OPINION.
Favors EIectinE the Members of the
Police Board.

FaFOrs EIect1nS the hemberS OF the
Police Board.
Alderman Jewell, of the upper house.
said yesterday that while he is in favor of
obtaining home rule in the matter of Kan
sas City's police department, he believes
that the commissioners should be elected
by a direct vote of the people instead of
appointed by the mayor as provided for
in Counselor McDougars ordinance.
by direct vote of the people mean
that they shall be nominated by ballot
primary, after which the people still have
the power of selecting from the nominees
of the various parties, thereby keeping the
board strictly non-partisan. This was dem
onstrated at the last election of members
of our school board, when the most efficient
men were selected without regard TO their
politics. I am not In favor of the mayor,
president of the upper house or speaker of
the lower house serving on the board, for
the reason that they owe their places more
or less to the machinery of their party"
