STORY OF AFRICAN LOVE.
hamr Maiden Who Considered
Herself Worth More Than
Ten Cows.

An amusing incident is quoted by
III. L. Finck, in a recent volume on
primitive end curious customs, which
indicates how easily unitarian con-
siderations may gain the supremacy
among Africans.
A traveller knew a girl named Yam.
niki, who refused to marry a young
Kaffir sutton, although she confessed
that she liked him.
81 cannot take him." she said, Gas
he can offer only ten cows for me,
and my father wants 49,"
The traveller observed that it was
not kind of her father to let a few
cows stand in the way of her hap.
piness; but the African damsel did
not fall in with his sentimental views
in the case. Business and vanity Were
to her much more important matters
than individual preference, and she
exclaimed, excitedly:
what! You expect my father to
give me away for ten COWS? That
would be a fine sort of a bargain.
Am not worth more than Gill, fol
whom the Tambuki chief paid Il
cows last week? I am pretty, 1 car
cook, sew, crochet, speak English, anc
with all these accomplishments you
want my father to dispose of me
for ten miserable cows? Oh, sir, how
little you esteem me! No, no, nv
father is quite right in refusing tc
yield in this matter. Indeed, in my
opinion. he might boldly ask 80 cows
for me, for I am worth that much"

STATE FAIR AT PUEBLO.

The enterprising people of Pueblo
have revived the State Fair, says
the Cripple Creek Press, which used
to be held there every year and ats
tracted people and products from
all over the state and advertised
that city all over the country. A
strong stock company has been
formed and a state fair will be held
every autu an hereafter. This year
it will continue one week, from
September 23d to 2Sth. Good
grounds have been secured and
great efforts are being made to give
visitors a pleasant time and good
accommodations. Double tracks
are being laid to the grounds by
the electric railway and good SER
vice is promised. The race pro-
gramme is exceptionally fine, .he
purses large enough to attract the
best horses Over $50 stables are
being erected for racing stock. The
fincSt exhibits ever seen in the
state will be shown in the main
building
The State Fair mad: an annual
feature will be a better ADVERTISE
ment and bring in more money di-
rectly and indirectly, tnan any
other enterprise Pueblo could en-
gage in. People all over the state
like to visit the State Fair Visitors
from outside make it point to be
there because they can see in one
cole ction the best productions, Of
every part Of the state, at a small
cost which would cost great deal
OF travel and money to find for
themselves. The State Fair was a
happy thought for Pueblo.

ADMIRAL SAMPsON'S HATE.

That Admiral Sampson possess
es a malignant disposition is veri-
fed by the statement that he read
the proofs of Maclay's alleged hiss
tory in which slanderous attack
is made upon Admiral Schley. Hi,
failure to direct Maclays attention
to the outrageous character Of the
language used makes him morally
as much responsible for the libel as
Maclay is legally responsible
Against Sampson, Schley would
have recourse under naval regula
tions, but there is no use Of his
making any attempt to obtain JUS
tice at the hands of the navy de-
partment Let the fact be known
that Sampson lent the weight of
his official position to the ISLANDERS
Of this book and the opinion tha
the public has formed OF him will
be intensified
1t must be remembered that
Schley always has ranked Sampson
as an officer. In the fleet off Saints
ago Schley was commodore and
Sampson only captain, but by
special order OF the president
Sampson was made an acting ad-
miral, SO a. to give him command
of the fleet. Schley was patriotic
enough to serve faithfully and legal
ly under Sampson, his inferior in
rank, and, when Sampson was IL
miles away, fought and destroyed
the Spanish fl ct In his report
Sampson never mentioned Schley's
name. He seemed determined to
crush Schley, and in SO doing had
the active aid of the administration.

PROVINCE OF A NEWSPAPER.

Scarcely a week passes in the
experience Of newspaper that
there is not something to publish
which somebody would rather was
not published, and many OF the
items which the reporter is called
upon to deal with are such that
somebody finds fault with their
publication.
All this is the result of false
view Of the matter. 1t is tar better
for all concerned that the exact
facts in regard to any legitimate
news items should be published,
even if they are unpleasant, than
that any attempt should be made
to suppress them. To do this only
excites curiosity, instead OF crafty
ing it, and starts the tongue of gos>
sip to wagging, with the result that
all sorts of exaggerated reports are
soon put i'll circulation and the par
ties who are so afraid Of newspaper
publicity have ten times the injus>
tice done them that would result
from a straight forward publication
Of the facts.
The local newspaper is the friend
and helper Of every right minded
man, woman and child in the CONS
munity and has no desire to inj ure
or exploit the follies, faults or fol-
bles of any, but its province, and
the sole object of its existence is to
give the news and comment there's
on. If it cannot do this it has no
reason for existence 1t prefers to
give good news and speaks Of the
good. the true and the beautiful" "
and as a matter of fact nine>tenths
of its space is so used. II it is cons
PEELED to speak of other things the
fault belongs to those who do or
say the other things and not the
newspaper.

MIXED. But IN EARNEST,

A negro recruit and the officer OF the
day figure in the following little story
from the Philippines, written home by
a Kentucky volunteer:
"a negro recruit on outpost duty VINO
had been filled with stories of the tl!--
pinos' torture of captured American SOL
diers, had let his mind run on them I'M
til his terror caused him to get his orders
for the day into a pretty bad mess AT
midnight the officer of the day went the
rounds When he struck this rocky he
was challenged by scared negro.
Halt, dab; who's dat?'
THE answer was: officer of the day.
Again the sentry sung out: Halt.
dab; who's dat?
The officer then asked him what in
Sand Hill was the matter? Why didn't
he know his orders? The negro said:
does know nah orders
Well, what are they? asked the OH
Ger, and to his surprise the answer came
back:
De sargint done tole me to halt you
three times and den shoot you. And
with that he cooked his rifle.
You should have seen that officer
sprint for a tree. From there he used
the only argument Of any avail with a
coon. He cussed him so hard that the
negro forgot all about shooting him.
Half an hour later the officer was able 10
come out from his hiding place and give
his proper orders."-LouIsT!lle Courier

YESTERDAYS BALL GAMES
NEW HAVEN WON EASILY FROM
 THE BRISTOL LEADERS.
The Score Was T to 4-Youns moLea,

| The Score Was to 4-Young Mclean Was Wild NIertden and Norwich Also won-Orher Games.
 New Haven and Bristol started their ball game yesterday afternoon at 445 o'clock, just an hour behind the sched- ! uled time but when the game got under way the people were not sorry they waited. The game resulted in q win for the New Havens by the score of 7 to 4. Up in Bristol the rain fell near ly all day and for that reason the team gave up the hope of playing here. When the clouds began to break and when finally the sun came out Manager Can avan sent hurry message to the Bris- tol management telling them to come
 down. but 1t was too late for them to
 catch the regular train which they take to come to this city. They got the first enc they could and reached New Ha-
 ven about o'clock. Some of the play
 CTS who didn't go to Bristol after the
 game in Norwich Tuesday were on
 time, but there were only three of
 them. When the visitors came on the
 field they were without Captain Reis-
 ling, who was down to pitch. Mclean
 the youngster who has done such good
 work for the leaders, was in the box
 and he was touched up pretty freely in
 the first part of the game. In the first inning New Haven made four runs
 Bone drew a base on balls and stole second. O'Brien struck out and Bone
 stole third. Fitzmaurice drew pass and trotted down to second. Ramon
 singled to center field and Bone and
 ITitzmaurice crossed the plate Ken nedy let the ball go through him and Bannon reached third. The next bat ter was Captain Canavan, who met one of McLean's swift ones on the nose and the ball sailed to deep left center and before it was returned Canavan com pleted the circuit It was pretty hit and Canavan got the glad hand to such an extent that he had to take off his hat Three more runs came in in the third. Fitzmaurioe got to first on scratch single and Ramon went out on fly to Francis Canavan drew base and Luchia scored both runners with pretty two bagger to left field. Braun then made a timely single and Luchia scored. No more New Haven runs were scored after that. For Bristol in the opening inning Francis as usual drew a base on balls, stole second and scored on Sheffler's single. SBerry made a hit to right and Sheff1er was thrown out at third by Braun. In their half of the third Bristol made three more, on three singles and a base on balls.
 Captain Canavan played a great game at second and his two stops and throws In the sixth were of the sensa- tional order. Owens and Eddy for the Bristols also played fine ball. The um- piring of Hayes was something awful and the spectators were greatly anus ed by the continual row that his de- cisions created. Bristol got by far the worst of his work
