THE NEGRO QUESTION.
bishop ru-nsr Wants Congress PetltlOnsa
to Make an Appropriation to send
100000 Negroes to Africa.

Macon, Ga. Nov. 1s.-In an address
before the Georgia conference of the
African Methodist church Bishop n. NJ.
Turner yesterday urged every opposi-
ton to the Hardwick bill now pending
before the general assembly of this
state to limit the suffrage of the ne
groes in this state. The bishop said he
proposed to take the stump in Georgia
against it and implored every colored
minister to do likewise. He said the
law would reduce every negro to the
ignoble status OF free slave and their
condition would be worse than before
the war. He denounced the supreme
court of the United States for taking
away the Negroes civil rights. but ex-
cepted Justice Harlan, who was the ne
gro's friend. He urged that every min
lister assist in getting signatures to the
petition to congress for an appropria-
ton of S125, 900, 900 to be used in send
ing 1000, 900 of the race to Africa, so
there would be an end of race conflicts
in this country.

sion to investigate all the proposed routes
across the isthmus. The Nicaragua route had
been recently investigated by careful commits
sion which had made most elaborate surveys
and had submitted most satisfactory report
but by contending that the Panama route had

MADE PICKLE OF TEE BOY.
Horrible Outrage Perpetrated by Law
less Gang in KOwIOon, New
Territory OF China.

Victoria, B. c., Nov. 16.-An event
which speaks for itself of the lawless
state of the country bordering on and
beyond the new territory, Kowloon,
China, took place quite recently. A
gang of scoundrels kidnapped lad OF
seven years with view to holding him
for ransom. A message was sent to
the father demanding of him ransom
somewhat beyond his means and con-
sequently the father could not pay it.
The friends, believing that he was
able to raise the money if he wished,
again sent to him, threatening that il
the money was not sent within speci-
fed time the boy would be returned to
him in pickle, and the money not being
sent, actually put their threat into
effect. the dead body of the lad being
returned to the father in jar of brine.
The perpetrators of this horrible OUT
rage are still at large and apparently
the Chinese authorities are making no
effort to arrest them.

District Take Steps to Build Their Own
SHELTERS and Roller Mills.

Joplin, Mo-. Nov. 18.-The decline in
zinc ore prices from $43 to $32 in two
weeks has aroused the mine owners to
action and seems likely to lead to the
building of smelters and rolling mills

Gent capacity to handle all the ore pro-
duced in Missouri and Kansas. An
open meeting of the Missouri & Kan
sas Zinc Miners association was held
and So. 900, 600 fund was favored to
secure lands in the Kansas natural gas
