NEGRO RACE DYING OUT.
Bishop Turns Advises CoIored People TO
Emigrate 10 Africa

Emigrste 10 Africa
Washington Dispatch in the " Y. Sun.
Bishop Henry NJ Turner of
Georgia ia an enthusiast on the sub
Jet of negro emigrstion--a move
ment with which he has been closely
identified for several years. Event
ually, he thinks, the discussion will
bring about a grand exodus of
negroes to Africa. 1t is emigration
or determination, in his opinion. He
said to-day in an interview:
africa is the negro's tatherland,
and the sooner he goes there the
better for him Statistics show that
the negro race is dying out, and it
certainly is not growing healthier
wealthier, happier, Wiser or anything
else which gees to make life worth
living Africa Proffers ths greatest
possibilities on earth for the negro
{ emiRrate to, that is, if he has any
iiea Of being anything this side OF
the day Of general account giving.
Even nature is invoking the negro
to return to his God given home.
The trade winds which once blew
from 800 to 400 miles out a. sea
from the west coaet of Africa have
mysteriously changed their course
and are now tanning thu shores,
moderating the equatorial climate,
Diminishing the heat and humidity
aud driving away the death dealing
fsvers and malaria I believe thIs
is the work of God preparing Africa
for the reception of her children
who are suffering in this country
and who must return sooner OF later.
If / had S5,OOO,000 would invest
every cent in ships, and would see
that every negrs who wished to 60
to Africa got there. Now, some of
my people want to know why I do
not go to Africa and stay there
believe l am needed here. but the
very moment that can get $4,000
or 100000 negroes to go with me- [
am off like quarter horse. and I
will think it the best day work ever
accomplished"
HAS the African emigration |
movement mst with the approval of |
a majority Of the racs?"
mo, indeed; but on the contrary, |
a lot of Ignorant negroes have op. |
posed it from its very inception.
They pirate about the sickness of
Africa and many other things of
which they are in dense ignorance.
The thoughtful and intelligent of
the white race indorse the smigra.
tion policy, and it will yet prove a
success and of untold blessing to
the negro race"

Hawthorne's Bear Story.

In "Hawthornes First Diary" be-
gun at his home in Raymond, Maine,
when he was a small boy, he tells q
bear story, which is vouched for by his
editor. Hawthorne gives it as follows:
Mr.. Henry Turner of OHsfeld took
his AK and went out between Saturday
and Moose ponds, to look at some pine
trees A rain had just taken off enough
of the snow to lay bare<the roots Of a
part of the trees. Under a large root
there seemed to be cavity, and on eX-
aiming closely, something was .ex-
posed very much like long black hair.
-. He cut off the root saw the nose of a
bear, and killed him, pulled out the
body, saw another, killed that, and
dra gged out the carcass, when he found
that there was a third one in the den,
and that he was thoroughly awake,
too; but as soon as the head came in
sight, it was split open with the ak,
so that Mn. Turner alone, with only an
ak, killed three bears in less than half
an hour, the youngest being a good
sized one, and what the hunters call q
yearling.
This is a pretty good. bear story, but
probably. true, .ands happened only a
few weeks age; for John Patch, who
was here with his father, Capt. Len
Patch, who lives within two miles OF
Saturday Pond, told me so yesterday.

TORNADO SWEEPS NEBRASKA.
Several Towns in Its Course Are Partly
Demolished.


A tornado passed over section of Ne
braska Tuesday afternoon with disastrous
results. While all towns for a radius Of
fifty miles from Albion were more or less
damaged, Wood River seems to have suf
fered most. Many houses were destroyed
and several persons hurt, and everybody
took to storm cellars. The railway sta
ton was partially destroyed. A number
Of tornadoes seemed to be passing at the
same time, and debris of building was fly
ing in every direction. A heavy train ran
before the terrific gale for thirty miles
without steam, so high was the wind At
Albion the cyclone passed high, but it UNI
rooted seven buildings and several per-
sons were hurt by falling timbers Cy-
clone conditions prevailed for three hours.
Fears are entertained that great damage
was done in the country.
At Franklin, ten houses were totally
blown to pieces, and many people hurt,
but no deaths resulted. The balloon-like
cloud came bouncing along like a great
rubber cone. The roar of a hurricane pre-
coded it. Many people witnessed it's
crossing of the Republican river before it
reached the city It struck the water
squarely and threw columns of spray
hundred feet in the air. The dry bed of
the river could be seen for some distance.

Railroad Improvement.

Civil Engineer Wenzell Of Detroit,
Mich, has been placed in charge of the
stone work for the proposed second track
to be built by the Chicago and Northwest
ern between Baraboo and Elroy. There
are over twenty new bridges or extensions
made to span the Baraboo river and the
work will be quite an undertaking: All
the old pile structures are to be supplant-
cd with stone The estimate of cost for
IA tunnel at Ableman has been computed
and it has been found that it will require
over $4,000 more to go through the bluff
than around it, so it is possible that the
road will not be shortened, as planned, on
account of the cost.
