MORE CONTRACT LABoRERs.
Another Shipload Probably the Last
That is Coming.

The Japanese steamer Yorohime
Maru, with about 700 more emigrants
for Honolulu, arrived early this morn
ing from Yokohama. She was anchored
outside the harbor, as there is no room
on quarantine island for her passen-
gers. The Japs brought by the Doyo
Maru are still on the vessel, quarantine
island being about full, and it is likely
to be long time before the latest ar
rivals are taken off the steamer.
The arrival of the emigrants on the
Yorohime Maru makes about three
thousand that have arrived this month
already. The Yorohime Maru is thought
to have the last that are coming, and
the importation of contract laborers
from Japan is probably about at an
end

been driven into the continent of Az
rica since the failure of the Cartha-
ginians. The first British wedge was
driven short way when the Amer
lean colonies declared their independ-
ence, and Holland relied on the men,
cries Of Van Tromp for her naval
power. England seized South Africa
from the Hollanders in those troublous
days as the spoils of war. Six nations
now contend for the primacy in the
once dark continent. England has two
great wedges, one from the north and
one from the south, into the heart of
Africa. when Drake went down to
the Horn and England was crowned
thereby the beginning of the end was
accomplished. In the latter days Stan
ley so interested the various rich men
OF Europe and made himself so much
OF a nuisance to them that finally the
rich and wicked king of the Belgians
gave to him money for the founding
of the Congo Free State. The United
states was party to the agreement
which made the desolate and blood
stained wastes of the Congo the -four
ishing region which it now Is.
In 1885 the Congo International as
ISOLATION went out of existence. The
Congo Independent State was created
and placed under the sovereignty of
the king of the Belgians. In 1889 the
king made over to Belgium all his
rights in the Congo State. In 1890
a compact was made between the Con-
go State and Belgium by which the lat
ter was given the right to annex
formally the former after a period OF
ten years.

Time was when the word plague"
filed every heart with horror. Amer
lea has never been devastated by the
fell disease and now when a vessel
from Brazil has arrived at New York
with several cases on board there is
nothing to fear, for they have been
promptly quarantined. The "black
DEATH" as the plague has been appro-
priately named, Is always present in
Asia, where native ignorance and dis
regard of cleanliness have rendered
it epidemic. Europe, which was peri
odically declmated by this fatal putrld
fever has got rid of it by proper at
Sention to sanitation. The United
States with its good drainage, good
living and the accompanying increased
vitality has nothing to fear from the
presence of few isolated cases at the
New York quarantine.

MoDIsA OPERA GLASSES.

The Gases for Them Are Very smar
Too.
The new opera glasses show small
mounts, not too heavy to be held by
the slender wrist of young girl at
her first matinee, says the st. Louis
Republic. One serious trouble to the
older fashioned opear glasses is their
weight, making it fatiguing for wcmen
to hold them up for long time. The
lorgnette is the resource, or has been
heretofore, but now the new French
glasses seem to supply exactly what is
needed. They have the adjustable
shape which is necessary to bring an
object in range, either near or further
OF. This advantage is lacking in the
lorgnette. The frame of the new glass
is small and extremely light of weight.
The cases for the new opera glasses are
very smart, indeed, and are as different
as possible from the leather case or the
brocaded bag lined with satin. The
new case Is made of crocheted heads in
changeable colors. 1t has a purse ton
with lid, under which folds a metallic
fence, which is flexible enough to COM
press into small compass. The
beaded cases are in shaded steel beads.

north to the south. Gordon was de-
serted by Mr.. Gladstone and killed at
Khartum, but Kitchener avenged his
death. So the British wedges from the
north and the south were pushed on

to the Cape" was the rallying cry Of
those who were exploiting the dark
continent. On the northeast coast
England drove in another little wedge
from Somaliland, and on the east coast
one from British East Africa.

London correspondents state that
after twenty-five years of bankruptcy
Americas first colony, Liberia, is now
rehabilitated, the interest on it's pub
lie debt being paid. In 1871 Liberia
hoated a loan of 100000, chiefly in
England, but three years later the lit
tle republic failed to meet the interest,
and this condition of affairs has pre-
vailed ever since, until now Liberals
fiscal agents in London have an
nounced that the government is once
more able to meet its obligations. This
step was rendered feasible by new
source OF revenue derived from rubber,
and the interest which the bondholders
despaired of getting is now being paid
from the royalties turned into the gov
eminent of the republic by the Lii
berian rubber syndicate, an essentially
English concern. The development of
the rubber industry in Liberia has at
itracted considerable attention, which
has not confined itself to the CONNER
lcial aspect, and there is likely to be
in the near future diplomatic activity
in relation to the status of Liberia.
