Periodical announcements that eastern
owners of Omaha real estate are pre-
pairing to erect substantial buildings
upon their property are gratifying evil
dence of the increased confidence in
Omaha's stability and future. \ few

Omaha property on their hands wanted
nothing but to be rid Of it and refused
to listen TO any proposition for i'm

1T is difficult to say which end OF the male
Moro is most picturesque, his head or his
legs. On his head he wears a turban that
increases in the scale of magnifcence with
the number of corors it has. On his legs he
wears trousers that are so tight that every
Moro is a new source of wonder to the
Americans. The turban is usually of raw
silk, woven and dyed by the Moro women
well woven and dyed in squares or plaids
that would abash the glory of a Manila sun
set. If he is out to make an impression or
on important business the trousers are OF
silk, and if they were only of the right
shade of brown you couldn't tell for the
life of you that he had them on. l saw one
pair that were made of green silk, with fine
red and yellow stripes alternating with
broader white ones. 1t was the Dato Joka-
nine, the most powerful fighting man on the
island of Jolo, who sported this gorgeous
ness. The turban is most artfully contrived.
1t is small and close-rolled, and usually does
not cover the top of the head. The ends stick
straight UP from the back of the head in a
fashion that reminds one Of the feathers in
a Sioux war bonnet.
Simply to say that the trousers are tight
conveys no sort Of impression of the degree
of tightness that makes them such con-
stant marvel. They fit the legs exactly as
we'll as the skin does and how the Moros
get them on is one of the things no feller
can find out The popular supposition at
first is that they are made on the wearer,
but that theory is exploded by the fact that
sometimes they are changed. General Bates
waited two hours for a dato one day and
the chief explained when he came out
finally that he had been changing his
trousers. Which proves that it can be done.
The feet of the Moros are large and fiat
from constant going without shoes. Their
knees are small and their calves are usually
pretty we'll developed. How they get those
big feet and stout calves through the little
knee space is one of the hitherto overlooked
wonders of the world. Down the outside
seams of the trousers below the knee, run
lines of small gilt or silver buttons
For his other garment the Moro wears
Jacket that apparently is made out of what
ever he happened to have left in the house
after his trousers were made. 1t is so tight
that usually he can't button it and wears it
open down the front, showing his broad eX-
panse of manly bosom. The cloth is of what
ever color happens to be handy so long as 1t
makes up by sticking on little strips of any
thing bright he may have. On some jackets
these are so arranged that one fanCies that

The Baltimore San says that another
significant indication OF the movement
of the cotton manufacturing industry
southwark is the announcement that
the Merrimac Manufacturing Company,
of Lowell, Mass, has signed a contract
for the erection at Huntsville. Ala, ot
i. cotton mill with 100000 spindles, and
which will give employment to about
five thousand hands. The mill will be
an improved duplicate OF the one now
operated at Lowell. Heretofore 1t mas
been claimed in New England that the
products of the southern cotton mills
would be confined to the coarscrGuallty

The magistrate granted the motion
OH the ground Of ofthemconstitltionality
OF section 1918, revised statutes.
The case came before Judge klugh
on appeal, who overrnled the magis-
trate in the following, his decision
being now affirmed:
"On hearing the appeal in this case
and after full argument of counsel for
the appellant and respondent, | am
satisfied that the magistrate was in
error IN his conclusions, that the act in
questlonis unconstitutional and in dis
missing the warrant herein. ! am also
satisfied that any person asgrieyed
has the right to have a warrant issued
for the offense charged in this case.
''It is, therefore ordered that the
case be remanded to Magistrate D. H.
Russell, Esq, to try the case upon its
merits.-IAc State.

In several Of the State Legislatures
deadlocks continue on the matter OF
the election OF United Senators. In
each instance, probably, the election OF
a Senator is the business OF pre-elnl-
nent importance Of the session. While
the deadlock continues factional lines
are drawn closely and personal and
partison feeling runs high. The con-
sequence is that the members are not
in state Of mind to legislate calmly
and temperatcly for the good OF the
people. Thus the public interests sui
fer while the fight for the Senatorshlp
wakes hot. One of these days the peo-
Die will get tired of that sort of thing,
and take the election of Senators into
their own hands.

A good deal of discussion is taking
place in the various Presbyterian
Churches as to the advisabiity Of re-
uniting the Northern and Southern
Churches. The Northern Presbyter-
ians seem to be anxious for the union,
and have made certain oyertures to
the Southern Church. In the South,
opinion is varied. Some of the Pres
byterians approve, others doubt the
advisability of the move, still others
distinctly oppose it. All of the Church
papers have taken up the question,
viewing it in every possible light. AS
yet, the outcome cannot be predicted.

In North Carolina the Legislature
has adopted an amendment to the
State Constitution limiting the priyl-
=leges Of suffrage by prescribing educa-
tional, property and poll tax qualih-
cations. In other words, after the
adoption of this amendment Gy the
people, no one will have Alright to vote
in North Carolina save those who have
a certain measure Of education, GER

provisions do not apply to those who
were entitled to vote on January 1, 1857,

The hopes Of extreme Republican
partisans to find way to reduce the
representation of the Southern States
in Congress and the Electoral College
seem destined to disappointment.
Certain it is that nothing practical can
he done on that line in the immediate
future, and it is just as certain-or
practically so-that the struggle which
fine republicans have been scheduling
for the next Congress will not nateri-

John Barrett, United States minister

that the opportunities for trade when
the east holds out to them are simply
infinite. Out Of the 500,000,0 900 people
who inhabit the Asiatic countries not
fewer than 4oO,O00,000 Of the number
are clothed in cotton garments, and
out Of 100000 square miles which
these 5Astatic countries contain, not
more thad 100000 square miles are
adapted to the production of cotton.
In these facts may ae promised much
for the cotton growing States Of North

The indications are decidedly against any

been absolutely no exchanges on this sub
ject between the two governments since the

define temporarily the respective rights of
the two parties IS working satisfactorily,
and there is no reason Just now for press

the Senate for any permanent treaty defin-
ing the boundary line which would secure
the adhesion of Canada, and 1t is feared
that eve II 4 moderate proposition. looking
toward a compromise. could not be framed
that would receive the approval of both

FIENDIsH CHINESE BANDITS.

YOKOF ANA, November 8, via Victoria
b G., November 1a.-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 desperadoes kidnapped
a lad of seven years with view OF hold
ing him for ransom. y message was sent
to the father demanding of him ransom
somewhat beyond his means, and conse-
queutIy the father could rot pay it.
The captors, bel ewing that he was able
10 raise the money II he wished, again
sent to him, threatening that If the money
was not sent within specified time, the
boy would be returned 20 him in pickle.
The money not being sent they actually
put their threat into effect, the dead body
Of the lad being returned TO the father in
a tar Of brine. The perpetrators of the
crime are still at large and apparently the
Chinese authOrit IS are making no effort
to arrest them.
