WHITE EXTOLS. MCKINLEY.

New York.-The German Ameri-
can Mckinley and Roosevelt League,
twenty'irst assembly district branch,
held a mass meeting at which Ar
thur Won Briessn read a letter from
Andrew D. White, United States min
lister TO Germany. Mr.. White In his
letter exkolled President Mckinley
and his policy, saying:
"HiS defeat and the election of Mr..
Bryan would not only bring confusion
and distress upon the business inter-
ests Of the country, including the In
terest Of labor. but 1t would disgrace
Us In the eyes Of every lover Of lib
erty in In the world and rejoice the
hearts Of reaotionsries Of every sort,
who see In the success Of republican
institutions q menace of the cherished
ideas"
Mr.. White denies there are any but

Eggs without Shells.

In the report Of the trade Of Italy
for the years 1898 and 1899, by Sir
George Bonham. secretary to her ma
jesty's embassy at Rome, there is an
interesting paragraph describing the
system adopted for the expectation OF
eggs to England for pastry. The shell
Is removed, and the interior Of the
egg-white and yolk together-is pack
ed in alright vessels or drums con-
tanning each 1000 eggs. Great care is
taken to ensure the eggs being fresh,
and to exclude the air, as one bad egg
spells all the remainder, and renders
the consignment unstable. The new
system has the advantage Of removing
the risk of breakage, and is also pre-
ferred by the pastry cook for whose
use they are intended. As to the ex-
tent Of the trade In eggs, the report
mentions that in 1897 Russia exported
to England over $4,000, 0OO.-Mark

American Ships Crew.
The story OF the first American voy.
age to Africa, of which we have a
definite record, tells US somewhat OF
the methods employed In obtaining
savage cargoes. A Boston ship, COM
manded by one Capt. Smith. went
away to Madeira with salt Ash and
slaves Sailing thence. with the pro-
ceeds of her sale, she touched on the
coast Of Guinea" for slaves. She found
some London slave vessels already
there, with their captains very much
disgruntled because trade was dull.
There were very few slaves for sale.
that 10, and to liven matters @ little,
the Yankees and the ILondoners united,
and "on pretense Of some quarrel with
the natives landed 'murderer'-the
expressive name OF small cannon--at-
tackled a negro village on Sunday, kill
ed many OF the inhabitants and made a
few prisoners, two Of whom fell to the
share Of the Boston ship" That was
in 1642-just twenty-six years after the
Dutchman landed the slaves in Vir-
glnia, as recorded by John Rolfe, the
first American squaw man. False pre-
tense, outrage and slaughter Of inno-
cents characterized the flrst-recorded
gathering Of slaves In which the Amer
lean ship had part. They KILLED many
OF the inhabitants" and got two slaves
for their share Of the plumber. That
Capt. Smiths act was not according to
the ordinary usages Of the trade may
be inferred from what happened when
ne returned to Boston. A quarrel with
the ships owners over the proceeds
OF the voyage resulted in law suit
The story Of the voyage was told in

TEDDY IN KANSAS.

Lebanon, Kan.-Gov. Rooaevelt's
campaigning has begun in Kansas.
The first stop made by the special
train on Its way TO Kansas City was
at Jennings. At Horton the governor
left the train, was escorted to q plat
form In the opeL air and made brief
speech.
Gov. Roosevelt reminded his hearers
that In 1850 Kansas had stood for
liberty in deed and not in name
only; for that liberty that knows how
to govern itself and therefore how to
govern others. he said that they
would be unworthy sons IL they did
not try to MAINTAIN the heritage for
which their fathers had shed their
blood. =.

formerly, for two reasons: First, peo-

folks have come into the south, and
the local manufacturers cater to their
