Pensioners.

From an exchange we get the remark
able statement that there are.now only
a few thousands short Of one million
pensioners on the United States
pension rolls The forthcoming report
will show, 1t is said, that the actual
number at the end Of the fiscal year
was 9s3. 500, including about $4,000
names added during this year. During
the same period Of time few more
than 43. 900 names we're dropped, In
Guiding about SO 600 by death and the
remainder by other causes. It appears
therefore, that the roll is still q grow
Jag one, with the likelihood that the
million mark Of pensioners will yet be
reached if not passed. The Spanish
American. Philippines and Chinese az
fairs will add thousands 70 the number
Of government pensioners, while the
veterans Of the War Of Secession are
apparently still hale and hearty lot -

Missing Missionaries.

Mr.. John Goodnow, the United
States consul general at Shanghai after
inquiries in every possible lesource, learns
that the number of British and Ameri'
can missionaries probably murdered
during the uprising in China has been
SO. while 40 others stationed in Ohi'ii
and Shan.si provinces are unsccounted
for. Of those whose deaths have been
absolutely proven, % were Americana
s men, 8 women. and 6 children. and
"a were British-9 men, 10 women and
10 children. There is strong proof that
thirty.seven more were killed as Tai
Yuen. All the natives from that place
tell substantially the same story. Ten
men, 10 women. and Z children are
known to have been there.
The list Of missing numbers-Amerl'
cans. 20 men, 2l women, and 20 children

CAUGHT Like Rats In Traps.

The hurricane in Galveston lasted
from O'Clock Saturday afternoon until
1 80 o'clock Sunday morning. II is
generally agreed that if the wind had
continued from she same direction an
ether hour the entire island would have
been swept away and the loss of life
would have been limited to the popula-
tion only. AS it was the people were
caught like rats in trap between 9
and o O'Clock and nothing could be
seen from the island but an unbroken
circle of sea. There we're no electric
lights and the town was shrouded in
darkness.

The Offending Colorsa ohurohmsn.

Something of oommotion has been
kicked up in the Republican camp by
the announcement that three prominent
negro Republicans. Bishops Turner,
Grant and Derrick, of the African Meth
odist Church, had come out for Bryan
and Stevenson and would take the stump
In the doubtful. States. The Republican
organs are now denouncing these ne
gro leaders in the most bitter fashion,
and charge them with the basest in
gratitude. This proves what the Dem.
ocrats have often asserted, that the Re-
pablican party believes that 1t owns the
negro, and no matter what course IL
may take 1t is the bounden duty of the
negro to support it at all times. New

WHAT ONE WOMAN THINKS.

Nowadays a music roll Is just as apt
to contain sausage as a sonata.
With the rudder OF truth gone and
the compass of faith lost, love soon
comes to shipwreck.
Some women's idea of their rights is,
all that they now have together with
those enjoyed by men.
1t is wise woman who knows her
own business. and it Is a wiser one
who thoroughly attends to it.
They say there are no bands in the
Boer army, but they seem to know how
to face the music just the same.
To refuse man in order to have the
fun of hearing him propose again is
dangerous; he may propose again to
some other girl.
1t is not always wise to ask a child
for his opinions in public; they are
generally uncompromisingly and some
times uncomfortably frank.
