A COLORED MONSTER.

"In France, outside of Paris" writes
a traveller. "the people appeared to re-
gard our colored girl as an object of
unparalleled interest. Crowds came in
to the hotels where we stopped and gaz-
ed at her in open-mounted astonish-
ment. Probably they had never seen a
black woman before. In Marseilles,
when she went out on the street she
struck terror to bunch of school chill
dren. who fled when they saw her, as
if she were some horrible monster,
though she is one of the comeliest dark
girls in the country. She attended
church one day and almost broke up
the services. Finally we got tired of
the thing and went back to England,
where the people take no more note of
the color of human beings than they
do in this country. The girl herself
was often so put out that she cried
from veXation, and vowed she wouldn't
go to France again for all the finery in
Paris"

WHITE HOUSE 1LLuMGNATION

Mrs. Semple, President John Tyler's
daughter, hopes that the Improvements
at the White House will spare the old
chandeliers and candelabra. "They
were selected by President Monroe
she says. "He was minister to France
before he was elected president, and
both he and his wife had excellent tas-
te. as all of the furnishings which they
selected show. The chandeliers / speak
of have been made to suit oil lamps.

fathers time candles We're used, and It

the world, and the whole expense of it
which was considerable, as you may
imagine came out of the presidents
salary. which was only half at that pc
riod what it is today.

it, it is their best, medicine for disor-

A GOOD SLEEPER.

Mr.. Balfour, according to a writer in
an English weekly, sleeps at least II
hours day-sometimes longer-and
though he does not prepare his speech
es word for word, like Sir William
Harcourt or dictate them to a short
hand writer like Disraeli, he does what
he calls "think them out while in bed"
and notes the principal headings on n
sheet of folded foolscap, which he holds
in his right hand while speaking, and
slaps against his left when he wants
to emphasize point. He seldom paus-
es to find a word, but when he requires
time to think Of the next argument he
sips from a glass of water.

A BIG LIFE POLICY.

The first assassination policy" ever
written is said to nave been just issued
on the life of Prince Henry of Prussia.
The policy is for 100000, payable only
in the event of the princes death at the
hands Of an assassin, and, owing to the
great popularity of the man, the Ger
man companies who took the risk think
that they have decidedly the best of the
bargain. 1t would be interesting to
know the size of the premium.

BEEF HIGH In BERLIN
NOW RETAILING AT A CENTS

City ohicials Say They Must Raise
Wages Of Employees to Enable
Them to Buy Meat for
Their Families.

Berlin, Oct. Embarrassing pressure Is
being brought to bear on the Government
with the object of opening the frontiers
for the importation of foreign animals
and the relaxation Of the regulations
created to exclude meat exports or some
thing that will afford relief from the
excessive price of meat which have now
rose to levels which are prohibitive for
the, laboring people and which are seri-
ousiy affecting the resources of middle
class families.
THE masistracy of Berlin, for instance.
In petition to the Government, says that
II the prices of meat continue as high
as they are now, the salaries of the city
enoJoyes must be raised. The petitioners
also say that the expenses of the NUM-
cipal institutions have already increased
s750OO0 during the current year, whicn
is attributed wholly to. the higher price
of meat.
Reef retails at A cents a pound. and
other meats are proportioratelyi nign.
The wholesale prices In the German mar
kets are from Is to % per cent. higher
than in those of neighboring countries
hence the people who advocate Govern
ment action assert that the scarcity OF
animals is due 10 the Stooco AAoAe~

Herr Podibielski recognized fully that
the present situation was intolerabie anu

MOODY STICKS TO IT
REAFFrRMs STATEMENT rs TO
TARIFF ON COAL.
s&ys That the Paragraph Fixing Duty
on Anthracite Was "Inadvert-
emily" inserted, While Bill
Was in the Senate.

Moody, Secretary of the Navy. spoke here
tonight. The Secretary said:
In a speech made at Worcester, the
Democratic candidate for Governor did
me the honor of referring to certain
views which / have expressed concern
ing the duty on anthracite.
"In a speech at Madison which l made
some time ago, / stated that under the
Dingley law there was practically duty
on anthracite and that that duty was in
advertently placed in the act. Both
statements have been challenged and al
though the subject is somewhat hack

reaffirm my statements and give the
reaso upon which they were based
Anthracite for some time prior to the
passage Of the Dingley law was free
of duty. As that bill left the House an
thracite was still upon the free list but
certain changes were made in the Senate
which altered the situation materially and
the Senate amendments finally became

and it's meanings becomes clear when we

duty per ton is imposed upon coal. btu

o. per cent or more fixed carbon.
1T is my understanding that the Penn
sylvania anthracite contains as much fix
ed carbon as any anthracite deposits in
the world, yet IT appears from report
of the United States Geological Survey
recently published that none of that coal
contains as great a proportion of fixed
carbon as 80 per cent. '2he result of
the application of the law to the facts
concerned show abundantly that while
anthracite is nomnally on the free list

|DAMPER ON THE REBELS
First Installment of Reinforcements
for Government Army on the
Isthmus Reaches Colon.
Serious Row Averted.

Colon, Oct. 31.-A detachment Of
1900 government troops commanded by
General Lucio welasco, arrived here to-
day from Savnilia, department Of Boil
var. on board a French steamer.
The steamer also brought a telegram
which had been censored by the gov
eminent of the department Of Bolivar
from General Tribe Tribe to his wife at
Bogota. This message was dated Rio
Frio, October Is. and said the writer was
safe and about to sign a treaty OF peace
to include the entire departments of Boil
ivar and Magadeiana. Uribe-Uribe added
that he expected to reach Bogota shortly.
The news of Uribe-Uribe's surrender Is
well calculated to dampen the spirits of
the revolutionists. The arrival of the 1900
government troops this morning the first
installment of the achievements de-
signed for the isthmus. Is also another
setback to rebel hopes. 1t Is understood
transportation on the railroad of Colon
liam troops and ammunition across the

Last Wednesday serious fracas all but
occurred at the railroad station in Pam
anna between American marines on guard
there and government officfals and troops.
The Colombians tried to remove from the
station six wagon loads Of ammunition
which had come IN from Colon but the
marines prevented them from doing so.
The ammunition was subsequently deliv-
cred to the government.

At first sight this incurable mania Tor
gambling with which we are attncteu
seems a heinous and unmixed evil. II Is
bad enough, in all conscience, and 1t Is
not our purpose to plead for it. Put as
madness is often the resI,H of some hne
quality or power becoming excessive or
going wrong, so gambling seems TO be q
diseased form of spirit when mas maze

enterprise. In fact. enterprise is a sort
of gambling. A man engages his savings,
his time, his energy. in scheme whlcn
he hopes will yield him fvefold, tentold'
a hundredfold. but whose success Is al
most as problematical the fall of
roulette ball, the finish of a hOrserace,
or the huctuation of the stock market.
The difference between gambling and gen.
uine enterprise is that inthe former a
man wages on pure hazard, often pittng
his reason against a mechanical thing
that has nothing to do with reason except
to mock it, while in the latter he bets
on his own power and resource. Gam
hing and enterprise are both the express
sion of an intense ambition to get rich.
And as long as that ambition remains
the moving principle in American ac-
tivity, there will be this double expression
of it-enterprise and gambling the one
leading to prosperity, the other, more
often than not, to poverty anc cuin and
all degradation.
