THE PARADISE FISH.

Rarities Found In China.

One of the Wonderful PiscatoriaI
Rarities Found In China.
The oldest of all piscatorial rarities
is the paradise fish of China Like the
German canary and one or two other
species of bird and fish, this little finny
beauty is the product of cultivation
only, there being no place in the world
where it is found in a wild state In
the land of the dragon they are kept
and cultivated in ornamental aquari-
ums, each succeeding generation of the
little oddities exhibiting more diver
sified colors. The male is the larger of
the two sexes, measuring when full
grown three and half inches. The
body is shaped very much like that of
q common pumpkin seed sunfish, its
color surprising in brilliancy any fish
heretofore cultivated for the aquarium.
The head of macropodus chats his
generic name) is ashy gray, notified
with irregular dark spots. The gills
are azurine blue, bordered with bril-
liant crimson.
The eyes are yellow and red, with
black pupil. The sides of the body and
the crescent shaped caudal fin are deep
crimson, the former having from ten
to twelve vertical blue stripes, while
the latter is bordered with blue. tt
upper surface of the body is continue
~ changing color-sometimes it t.
white, at others gray, black or blue.
The dorsal and anal fins are remarka-
bly, large, hence its generic name =
macro, large; podus, fin or foot. Both
fms are shaped alike and are striped
with brown and bordered with a bright
blue. The dull colored ventral fins are
protected by brilliant scarlet colored
spine, extending three-fourths of an
inch behind the body of the fin. The
pectoral fins are well shaped, but trans
parent and colorless.

TWO PREPARATIONS.
From Hays EulOgy on Mckinley ans
RIaine,s EuIOxy On GarfieId

From Hays EuIogy on Mckinley and
Blaine's EulOgy on Garfield.
1t is a curious coincidence that on
Feb. 81, 1882, and on Feb. 81, 1902, a
secretary of state of murdered presi-
dent delivered eulogy Of his dead
chief before the houses of congress
Mr.. Hay, primarily writer, showed
the essayist in his grafton ON McKin-
ley. Mr.. Blaine primarily a speaker,
showed the orator in his grafton on
Garfield Here is the peroration Of
Hays eulogy of Mckinley:
There is not one of us but feels prouder
of his native land because the august fig
ure of Washington presided over its be-
ginnings; no one but vows it q tenderer
love because Lincoln poured out his blood
for 1t; no one but must feel his devotion
for his country renewed and kindled when
he remembers how Mckinley loved, re-
vered and served 1t, showed in his life
how a citizen should live and in his last
hour taught us how a gentleman could
die.
Blaine's grafton on Garfield ended
with this famous passage:
As the end drew near his early craving
for the sea returned The stately man
sion of power had been to him the weari-
some hospital of pain, and he begged to
be taken from his prison walls, from it's
oppressive, sitting air, from its home
lessness and its hopelessness. Gently, ST.
lently, the love of a great people bore the
pale sufferer to the longed for healing of
the sea to live or to die as God should
will, within sight of the heaving pillows
within sound of it's manifold voices. With
wan, fevered face, tenderly lifted to
the cooling breeze he looked out wistful-
ly upon the oceans changing wonders, on
its far sails. on its restless waves rolling
shoreward to break and die beneath the
MONDAY sun; on the red clouds of even
ing. arching low to the horizon; on the
serene and shining pathway of the stars
Let us think that his dying eyes read a
mystic meaning which only the rapt and
parting soul may know. Let us believe
that in the silence of the receding world
he heard the great waves breaking on
farther shore and felt already upon his
wasted brow the breath OF the eternal

The Importance and benefit of fire drills
In crowded schools were forcibly illustrat-
ed yesterday at the Catholic Protectory
in Manhattan. When flames broke out in
the building the signal for the drill was
sounded and 800 boys forming into line
marched calmly and deliberately through
binding smoke to the sidewalk 1t is
gratifying to know that our public schools
have an excellent system of fire drills and
no exercise is more popular with teachers
and pupils. -Ho6oken Observer.

Prosperity is the main issue in the COM
ing Congressional elections and the issue
which will give the Republican party the
victory. One thing the wage Garner
knows; that it is not so much the price of
an article as the ability to pay the price
that concerns him. If he can buy suit
of clothes for 81 and does not have the 81
in his pocket the price is of very little
consequence to him, but if the suit of
clothes costs $5 and he now has Sc in his
pocket, he can look upon the situation
with perfect complacency. Elizabeth Jour

Kiss the Hand, DON'T Shake 1t.
Atlanta Journal.

Fashionable folk of Paris no longer
shake hands in greeting. Instead
the man kisses the woman's hand
in old time courtly fashion. If the
two have passed the bowing state he
is permitted to kiss the tips, but only
the tips, of her first two fingers. As
they become more friendly he is al
lowed to approach the first knuckle,
then the second, then the third and
so on to the back of the hand. When
they are very good friends the wrist
may, with perfect propriety, be
kissed.
II she is graceful and he be an
expert in the social graces, the salu
tation is pretty and picturesque. She
extends a white, jeweled hand with
oueenly air and he bows over il
with Chesterfeldisn politeness, just
touching the fingers with his lips as
he holds her hand in his. Whether
American husbands will approve oi
the Partisan greeting in the case ot
their own wives is question. For
of course, with the Partisan STAMP
on this revival of the old time salute
| it is likely to become popular in thl'
| country.

PREACHER CALLED DOWN.
Attack Upon Masonry Made in His Sermon
by LaurenS Preacher Resented by
MaSOnS Present.
News and Courier.

Laurens, November 26.-At Pop
lar Springs, leading Baptist
hurch in this county, the Rev. Il.
C. Haddock, in the course of his SER
mon last Sunday morning, made a
harsh attack on the Masonic Order.
E. H. MITCHELL a leading farmer,
arose and denied Mr.. Haddock's
statements, and inquired if he were
a Mason. He admitted that he was
not. Mr.. Haddock's language was
to the effect that the claim that the
Masonic tenets were based upon the

sive to the Masons present. Jeffer-
son Crawford and other leading men
of the church joined MIR. Mitchell in
resenting Mr.. Haddock's expressions
and he brought his sermon to an
abrupt close.
After the service Mr.. Haddock was
rebuked by several of the congrega-
tion. He is the pastor of the church
and a young man.
Some time ago he is said to have
made similar attack on Masonry in
sermon in Anderson or Pickens
county. Public sentiment seems to
justify the interruption to the SER
mon.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1902-11-28

possible to ascertain with any degree
of accuracy the number disfranchised.
The number, in fact, varies from
year to year
In the Constitution of Alabama,
for instance, the following persons
who have the requisite qualifications
of age, sex and residence are per
mitted to vote:
First-All who can read and write
the English languale and have been
engaged in some lawful business or
occupation for the greater part of
the II months preceding the regis
tration. Second-The owner or the
husband of the owner of 40 acres of
land in the State or of real and per
sonal property assessed for taxation
at as much as $500, the taxes on
which have been paid.
In addition to these all persons
who have honorably served in the
United States or the Confederate
States army or navy and their lawful
descendants and 'all persons who are
of good character and who under
stand the duties and obligations of
citizenship under a republican form
of government" It would appear
that to ascertain the number disfran
chised by this constitution would be
almost impossible. The registration
is no guide, for here in the city of
Baltimore there are now over 10000
people who are entitled to register
and vote and who are not registered.
The South can view with equanim
ity any such attempt upon its con-
stitutional rights. Congress has so
long been conducted IS sectional
body that the South would perhaps
fare as we'll if it sent no representa-
tives and took no part in it. The
Southern States, in their poverty and
ruin from which they are now recov-
ering, have been levied upon for
many years to pay twenty or thirty
million dollars annually in pension
money to the north, and one would
think that the most exscting, cruel
and relentless conquerors would be
satisfied with that. But it seems
that there is a strong sentiment in
the North in favor of continuing to
treat the South as a conquered prov
ince.
Perhaps the real reason why Mr..
Payne and those who agree with him
wish to reduce Southirn representa-
ton in the hose is found in the sec
ond article of the constitution, which
fixes the number of electors in q
State. This number is equal to the
whole number of senators and repre-
rentatives. With any material reduc-
ton of the southern vote in the cleo
toral colleges it is believed it would be
impossible for the Democrats to
elect q president.
But Mr.. Payne should remember
that the history of this country shows
that all such revolutionary schemes
for maintaining party power react
upon the party which attempts them.
The Force bill movement in the Fifty
first Congress was an illustration,
and the gerrymanderlng of States
has often been found to iujure the
party which does it.
