KAFFIR HARDWOOD.
south Africans Who Seldom Feel Pain
and Have Thick Skulls.
Pearson's Weekly.

Il toAcOh = Ntthiy
Nearly everybody knows that the Kaffir
portioned to the white man. and the fact
of this additional cuticle may account for
the extraordinary inSensibility of this race
to physical pain. The following facts are
vouched for as being absolutely correct:
In a smithy near Bloemfontein. one aft
ernOon. some one noticed a strong and pun
gent smell as of flesh burning. on inquiry
being made, ii was discovered that a stout
Kaftir boy was standing barefooted on a
redhOt horseshoe. which had somehow
fallen on the ground. Strange as il may
seem, he had not the slightest knowledge
that the burning mass was beneath his foot,
and. although an enormous blister was soon
raised. he averred that he felt no pain
whatever.
All black men have the reputation of own
ing thick skulls. but what will be thought
of the kaffir who fell from a second-story
window. about fifteen feet, jumping his
head on the ground as he fell. and who rose
after a few seconds. brushed the dust from
his hair. and pursued his way. laughing at
the incident?
Another instance of this extraordinary
insensibility TO suffering comes from a
cycle makers shop in Johannesburg. y
Kaffir, in the course of his work, had the
whole OF his forefinger nail or the right
hand torn off by the machinery. In an in
slant he plunged the mutilated member
into a vat containing boiling alum. and bore
the pain with simply a slight vince. BY
reSOrting TO this course he showed himself
an adept in the art of Self-cure, for a day
or two later the niger was painless. and
the nail soon grew again. But the eXtraor-
cess which would probably have made the
ordinary white man lose consciousness did
nothing more in the case of the Kaffir than
elicit a grin OF pain.

MIR. PLEA.
Why He Thinks He Is Entitled to a
Seat In the United states Senate.

WASHINGTON. March 24.-The Senate
committee on privileges and elections has
received the brief in the claim of Henry w.
corbett, OF Oregon. TO a seat in the Senate.
1t argues that equality of representation of
the several States in the federal Senate was
an essential feature in the scheme of gov
eminent provided by the trainers of the
Constitution. and that this equality is de-
stroyed when any State has but one sena-
tor. The appointment of Mr.. Corbett Is
held to be strictly within the terms of the
Constitution providing for appointments by
the Governor IL vacancies occur by resigna-
tion or otherwise. and many authorities and
precedentS are cited to sustain this view.
AS to the recent failure of the Oregon
Legislature to organize and elect "A senator.
the brief says: Whatever equity there may
be in holding the State responsible for the
malfeasance or nonfeaSance of a regularly
organized branch of the State government,
we earnestly contend that il would be the
grossest injustice to hold a State response
bic for the nonfeasance of individuals who
had been chosen to represent certain dis
tricts IN the Legislature. but who had not
qualified as legislators and were q minority
of those entitled to sit in the House in any
event"

SENATE COMMITTEES.
German Urges that the Vacancies BE
FILLED at Once.

WASHINGTON. March 2t.-The Senate
cQmmittee on appropriations held its first
meeting OF the session to-day and agreed
10 report the agricultural appropriation bill
as IL passed the House. Action on the other
appropriation bills which failed at the last
session was deferred until next Tuesday.
when. ii is understood. the sundTy civil, the
Indian and the general deficiency bills will
be taken Up and all probably reported.
The tendency now appears to be to report
the bills practically as they were agreed
on in the last session.
The meeting was devoted largely to a dis
cussion of the necessity for filing the COM
mittee vacancies. which was precipitated
By Senator German. who called attention
TO the crippled condition of the Senate on
account of the failure To make the commit
tee assignments. Mr.. German suggested
the wisdom of a compromise arrangement,
whereby the Republicans should retain
their present chairmanShipS and which
would permit the filling OF the vacancies
on a basis That would be fair TO all parties.
The Republicans repiied by saying that
fhere was no immediate necessity for ac-
sfon. but claimed that If they were to be
placed in "A position where they would be
held responsible for committee action. they
had a right TO ask that they be given a
working majority on the committees. They
called attention to the fact that they were
the plurality party in the Senate. but said
that IL the other parties could unite upon
were willing that the combination should
take control.
Senator Pettigrew suggested that there
were four parties in the Senate and that
the Republicans might combine with some
other party and thus secure control beyond
p~eradventure. Senator Kyle's probable al
fiiation was freely discussed and ii was
agreed ON both sides that he would act
with the Republicans on organization

~ANTI-SEMITES' ALMANAC.
Names of Months Changed and a New
Chronology Adopted
New York Herald.

Some novel almanacs and calendars are
published each year. but not one OF those
which have yet appeared is equal. as far
as originality. eccentricity and audacity
are concerned, to one which has just APP
peared in Austria. TIL anti-Semites in that
country. as well as in Germany, are. if not
very powerful. at least very vociferous.
and hardly a month passes i'm which they
do not invent some new scheme for the
propagation of their ideas and the destruc-
ton of their foes, the Hebrews. The most
enthusiastic among these anti-Semites seem
TO belong to what is known as the Prus-
sian faction, the guiding genius of which
is NJ. De Schoenerer. These men have "A
c.ubroom in Vienna, and frequently meet
there for the purpose of holding debates.
At a recent debate an ingenious Teuton
immortalized himself by proposing that the
old-fashioned almanac be replaced by one
entirely German. Why. he argued. should
self-respecting Germans. who are proud of
their race and Of their country. use an
almanac which is filled with Roman words.
and which, moreover: bears on every page
religion of the Hebrews was powerful In
the world?
A long discussion followed the singular
proposition, and the result was that these
anti-Semites finally voted in favor of 1t.
Within the next few days an amended
almanac was July prepared, accepted and
given TO the world.
hardly anything that reminds US OF the ofd
to year. from century to century. prac-
tically unchanged. In the anti-Semite
| almanac all the WelI-knOWn names OF the
months are replaced by names of a purely
German origin. January. being of Roman
origin. sounded unpleasantly in the ears of
these Teutonic reformers. and consequently
they have banished it. and Hartung reigns
in its stead. They claim. and plausibly.
too. that no one German in a thousand
knows the meaning of the word January.
whereas every German knows that Hartupg
is derived from hart. which means hard.
and that IL Is, therefore. the only proper
title for the month in which the ground
/ is hardened by frost.
All the other months are rechristened in
| similar fashion. the aim in each case being
TO have the name express the kind OF
weather peculiar TO the month. Thus
Nebelung takes the place of November. this
being the month in which nebel or fog is
usually prevalent.
Another change. and one even more rad
ical than this, was also made. Hitherto
the Germans. like most other Europeans
have considered the birth of Christ as the
starting point OF their chronology. TIL
anti-Semites now claim that we must start
from some other point. as only by doing
so can we hope to obliterate the influence
of Christ. who. as a Hebrew and the
founder OF Christianity. is obnoxious tC

manism.

ligion.' argue these reformers. and If II

DIXON BESTS ERNE.
He Receives the Decision in a Twenty
Fiye-ROund Bout.

NEW YORK. March 24.-Six thousand
people were packed into the Broadway Attn
letic Club tonight to witness the twenty
five-round bout between George Dixon. the
worlds champion featherweight, and Frank
Erne, of Buffalo. These two were matched
TO meet at 122 pounds, but, although Dixon
was at the weight. Erne was easily twelve
pounds heavier than his dusky adversary.
After the twenty-five rounds were COM
pleted Dixon was declared the winner. and
he received an ovation. Erne led very sell
dom, and Dixon forced the fighting ali
through. When some of the lightweight
fighters offered TO taxi Dixon's place on ac-
count of Erne being so much over weight.
the little Boston boxer said: No. no; not
on your life. | don't care If he weighs a
ton: / will fight him and lick him.

ed before the boys donned the gloves that
there was evidently some job up. and he de-
clared all bets off. Dixon never looked bet
ter in his life. and his work in the ring was
worthy of his very best days. Tonight
contest showed plainly that the decision
year was not merited by Erne's fistic Prov
ess. These were sample rounds:
Round 2i-Dixon kept leading and Erne
simply clinching. Dixon swung his left on
the head. Dixon rushed and Erne jabbed
his left on the ribs. Erne landed a left
hand hook on the side of Dixon's head.
when George was in his own corner. As the
gong sounded Erne sent his right to the
ear.
Round 25-They shook hands for the wind
up. Dixon swung his left on the back of
the neck and Erne swung his right on the
neck. They exchanged right body blows.
Erne swung his right on the shoulder and
Dixon missed a left swing for the head.
Dixon then whipped his left on the chest.
They rushed into a clinch and exchanged
right Jabs on the neck. Both rushed and
swung right shorts on the jaw, and at the
end of the round they were clinched.
The referees decision i'm favor of Dixon
was received with cheers and a floral horse
shoe was presented TO him..
